Neighborhoods throughout Naperville are invited to join communities nationwide and participate in National Night Out on Tuesday, Aug. 2, 2022. Online registration for Naperville events is now available at www.naperville.il.us/nno.

Commonly called "America's Night Out Against Crime," National Night Out is a nationwide event designed to heighten drug prevention and crime awareness, generate support and participation in local anti-crime efforts and strengthen neighborhood spirit and police/community partnerships. Nearly 40 Naperville neighborhoods participated in 2021 by hosting block parties, potlucks, parades, ice cream socials and more.

Neighborhoods are asked to register their local 2022 National Night Out events with the Naperville Police Department by July 11. Registration is free and will allow members of the Naperville Police, Fire, Public Works, Animal Control, Electric and Water Utility departments, and Park District Police to visit many of the registered events. City staff will only visit registered events between 5 and 8 p.m. Residents are being asked to keep universal health precautions and any applicable COVID-19 restrictions or recommendations in mind as they plan and execute their neighborhood events.
