August 2 Night Out Day – First Tuesday in August
Night out Day is observed annually on the first Tuesday in August. It is a community-police awareness-raising event in the United States.
Events around the country are normally organized by block watches, not-for-profit organizations, companies and police departments. These events can be as simple as backyard barbecues or as large as full-blown festivals.

Some of these programs include: Drug prevention, Town watch, Neighborhood watch, other anti-watch. Share on social media using # August2NightOutDay.
