Article reused with permission from the Rainier Valley Post:

There’s still time to register your community event or neighborhood block party for next month’s Night Out 2015 celebration.

“Night Out” is a national Crime Prevention event designed to heighten awareness and unite communities. It’s also a great chance to meet your neighbors and organize against crime.

The City of Seattle will be celebrating the 31th Annual Night Out Against Crime on Tues., Aug. 4, and 10 block parties have already registered with SPD (see list below).

To participate in Night Out and have your street closed for the event, you must officially register your Night Out event with the City of Seattle.

Last year, more 1,400 events throughout the city were registered to participate.
