CARMICHAEL, CA (MPG) - Tuesday, August 2nd is National Night Out for 2022. This summer’s event, which is held nationwide on the first Tuesday of the month of August, is celebrated to promote solidarity between neighborhoods and local law enforcement for which community members are invited for some good, family-friendly fun.

The Carmichael Chamber of Commerce and the Carmichael Improvement District are hosting this year’s National Night Out at Carmichael Park on 5750 Grant Ave. Join your neighbors and friends on Tuesday, August 2nd, from 4:30 pm to 8:30 pm as the community celebrates National Night Out!

According to National Night Out’s website, “This nationwide event builds relationships between residents and businesses and promotes law enforcement community partnerships along with a myriad of local organizations that promote community safety. In addition, the event will offer an evening of summer fun that will include food, educational and interactive safety booths, and entertainment for all.”

In California, alone, there are hundreds of communities celebrating with 38 million neighbors in 16,000 vicinities across the nation, including Carmichael, who are joining law enforcement groups.

According to the national website, you can also hold your own National Night Out in your neighborhood by hosting block parties, festivals, parades, cookouts and much more.

Supporting police, sheriffs’ departments and other law enforcement agencies not only helps weave the torn social fabric in our communities but can also provide an important perspective for those seeking new careers or friendships.
