NATIONAL NIGHT OUT: TUESDAY, AUGUST 2, 2022
Butte County, CA- Neighborhoods throughout Butte County are invited to join over 38 million neighbors across 16 thousand communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide for National Night Out, Tuesday, August 2, 2022. National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes strong police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live and work. Together, we are making that happen. From time to time, neighbors throughout Butte County and across the nation are asked to lock their doors, turn on their front porch lights and spend the evening outside with neighbors and law enforcement. Along with the traditional outside lights and front porch vigils, most communities celebrate National Night Out by hosting block parties, festivals, parades, cookouts and other various community events with safety demonstrations, seminars, youth events, visits from emergency personnel, exhibits and more.
National Project Coordinator, Matt Peskin said, “This is a night for our nation to stand together and promote awareness, safety, and neighborhood unity. National Night Out showcases the vital importance of police-community partnerships and citizen involvement. When law enforcement and the community work closely together, some amazing things can happen.”
The Butte County Sheriff’s Office (BCSO) will be celebrating National Night Out, Tuesday, August 2, 2022 at Biggs Family Park, located at 8th and B Streets, Biggs. We would like to thank the Butte County Public Health Department, Valley Oak Children’s Services, CAL FIRE, the Butte County Farm Bureau, the City of Biggs and the Biggs United Methodist Church for partnering with us for this annual event.
