The Fountain Inn Police Department is gearing up to host its annual National Night Out on August 6th, 2024, from 6 PM to 8 PM on Depot Street in Fountain Inn, SC. This event promises to be an evening filled with food, fun, and a focus on strengthening police-community partnerships.

National Night Out, celebrated on the first Tuesday in August, aims to foster safety, unity, and neighborhood engagement. Attendees can look forward to enjoying free hot dogs, pizza, drinks, and other snacks while engaging with law enforcement officers and fellow community members.

National Night Out was first introduced in 1984 by the National Association of Town Watch (NATW) in response to rising crime rates and a lack of community connections. The initiative encourages residents to take a stand against crime and build stronger relationships with law enforcement agencies, providing an excellent platform for community building.

Mark your calendars and join the Fountain Inn Police Department in promoting a safer and more connected community.
