In 1984 the National Association of Town Watch introduced the first National Night out. In the following 38 years national night out has grown to include 16 thousand communities and 38 million participants nationwide. The Minot Police Department has participated in National Night Out activities since 2010.
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
