SIOUX FALLS, SD (KELO.com) -National Night Out is being held Tuesday, August 3, 2021. And Sioux Falls neighborhoods are joining the celebration.
The event encourages neighbors to get outside and spend time getting to know the people in their neighborhood. This year we have several neighborhoods hosting block parties and cookouts. The Sioux Falls Police Department, Sioux Falls Fire/Rescue, and other city departments will also attend.
National Night Out has proven to be an effective and enjoyable event that promotes neighborhood spirit as well as positive police and community partnerships. The benefits that Sioux Falls will receive and have received from National Night Out extends well beyond this night.
The benefits of National Night Out:
-Heightens crime and drug prevention awareness
