Florissant Police to Participate in 2016 National Night Out Oct. 4

The Florissant Police Dept. will participate in the 32nd Annual “National Night Out” (NNO) campaign which has been scheduled for Tuesday, Oct, 4.

National Night Out is designed to:

• Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness
• Generate support for, and participation in, local anticrime programs
• Strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships
• Send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

Florissant residents are being encouraged to lock their doors, turn on outside lights, and spend the evening outside with their neighbors between the hours of 6 and 9 p.m. Activities such as block parties, cookouts, visits from police officers, or scheduling a tour of the police station are encouraged.

Florissant residents are required to apply for a no cost “Block Party” permit. Permits may be obtained in person from the Mayor’s Office at the Florissant City Hall, or by downloading a permit from the City of Florissant website at www.florissantmo.com

For additional information contact Officer Craig DeHart at (314) 830-6042, or visit the police department’s website, www.florissantmo.com/police . You can also visit the National Night Out website, www.natw.org
