The Crime Scene
One nation under a crime-free groove
The annual crime prevention event, National Night Out, is quickly approaching. It will take place August 4. NNO, sponsored by the Greensboro police, is designed to:
1. Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness;
2. Generate support for, and participation in, local anti-crime programs;
3. Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police community partnerships; and
4. Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.
Many neighborhoods party for prevention by holding block parties, cookouts, parades, flashlight walks, and even contests. Last year, nearly 115 neighborhoods in Greensboro got in on the action.
The News & Record wants to know how your neighborhood will celebrate the National Night Out. So tell us what’s going on.
