SUMMARY:16 th National Night Out
DESCRIPTION:Communities throughout Fairfax celebrate an Annual National Night Out\, the first Tuesday in August. The night\, sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch\, promotes community partnerships with local police officers. The event is designed to heighten crime and drug prevention awareness\, generate support and participation for anticrime programs\, strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships\, and “send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back\,” according to www.nationalnightout.org. \nNeighborhoods around Fairfax typically celebrate outside with food and games for the children. It is an environment where neighbors can stop and get to know each other and their local police officers.
