National Night Out is on for 2021! The 38th Annual
National Night Out takes place Tuesday, August 3, 2021, in communities and neighborhoods throughout Menlo Park, and the nation. This event gives neighbors an opportunity to join together in a combined effort to:
- Increase crime prevention and awareness

National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.
