National Night Out is the nation’s largest, annual crime prevention/safety event in the country. It involves over 36 million people in 15,000 different communities from all fifty states.  This event is sponsored by law enforcement and CrimeWatch teams, and right here in North Andover the planning has already begun.

NAPD and CrimeWatch would like to invite you to attend our "town wide celebration" .  As in years past the middle school field is filled with games, face painting, business and food vendors, police ATV rides and the opportunity to climb into a fire truck.

The idea behind this event is a "Community Night Out"  Chief Gallagher wants you to leave your checkbooks at home and come on out and enjoy a nice FREE family night out in the community, meet your local law enforcement and to learn a little more about crime prevention.

*please note since this event is being held on the school grounds we kindly ask you do not bring your dogs to this event* 

If you are a North Andover based business and would like to participate as a vendor please contact CrimeWatch@NAPD.US  Attn: NNO - Det. Cronin
