A record number of Shoreline neighborhoods participated in the 29th Annual National Night Out (NNO) event. On Tuesday, August 7, Shoreline residents came together and celebrated in over 47 separate events for NNO with over 2,000 people participating. City Councilmembers and City, Police and Fire staff visited events to introduce themselves, answer questions and thank the participants for their community support. NNO grows bigger and more successful each year, and our neighborhoods and residents have reaped the benefits.

National Night Out Against Crime is designed to generate participation in Block Watch and other crime prevention programs; strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and watching out for each other. NNO has proven to be an effective program to promote neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships in building safer communities.
