Then be one of the first 30 neighborhoods to register and we will make sure to have the police, fire, and city officials drive by.
We are asking all those participating in National Night Out 2020 to follow all CDC COVID-19 social distancing guidelines with your neighbors. Please note that large gatherings are not allowed right now and your local officials will not be stopping to visit, but simply driving by to say “hi” to those registered participating neighborhoods.
The Annual National Night Out (NNO) is a community-wide crime prevention program sponsored locally by the Riverside Police Department and our local businesses. NNO is sponsored nationally by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW), ADT, Target, and Nextdoor.com.
