~ As the first Tuesday in August approaches, residents of Naperville are gearing up for the annual National Night Out festivities. This celebration of community spirit and anti-crime efforts encourages residents to come together and show their support for local initiatives.

Known as "America's Night Out Against Crime," National Night Out is a nationwide event that aims to raise awareness about drug prevention and crime, promote participation in local anti-crime efforts, and strengthen relationships between police and the community. This year, the city of Naperville has planned a variety of events for both Monday, August 3rd and Tuesday, August 4th.

The festivities will kick off on Monday at the Fry Family YMCA with a free community celebration. Starting at 6:30 p.m., attendees can enjoy games, giveaways, and activities for all ages. There will be a bounce house, magic act, and opportunities to interact with police personnel and equipment. Food trucks will also be on site for those looking to grab a bite to eat. The evening will end with a free outdoor movie at sunset, complete with free popcorn (while supplies last). Residents are encouraged to bring their own chairs and blankets for the movie. In case of rain, the movie will be shown indoors.
