CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department says they will hold their annual National Night Out (NNO) campaign on October 6th to promote police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie.
NNO is intended to enhance the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement as it brings police and neighbors together under positive circumstances, according to a news release.
“Even though this year will be a little different, this event is still an integral part of the relationship we have with the community,” said CMPD Chief Johnny Jennings. “We will continue working with all of our partners to ensure we meet the needs of every community here in Charlotte.”
CMPD says due to coronavirus there will be a limited number of events and they ask anyone wanting to celebrate, but can’t attend, to illuminate their porch and exterior lights.
This year ten confirmed events will feature physical distancing, walking parades, and other measures to keep participants safe, according to a news release.
Below are the planned events for this year’s NNO:
Associations
- Cambridge HOA
