Organize a neighborhood block party, ice cream social or barbecue on your block.

National Night Out Against Crime is designed to build community connections and strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships.

Shoreline supports residents organizing a National Night Out event in their neighborhoods. Street closures require a permit. Permits are free for events co-sponsored by formal neighborhood associations. Contact Shoreline Permit Services at 206-801-2500 regarding permit requirements; please apply at least two weeks in advance.

When you apply for a permit or register your event you will receive:

  • A free red check tablecloth (while supplies last);
  • An event packet with basic information about Block Watch, emergency preparedness and neighborhood associations; 
  • Visits from Shoreline Police and Shoreline Fire (availability dependent on emergency calls).

Events that don’t require a street closure are encouraged to register to receive an event packet and visits from City staff, Police or Fire. To register, call or email Shoreline Neighborhoods Coordinator Nora Smith at 206-801-2253,
