It’s happening this Tuesday, July 31: The Edmonds Police Foundation presents “A Night Out Against Crime” — a day to lock your doors, turn on your porch lights and bring  your neighbors to celebrate our community’s many valuable programs and services.

Learn how to combat crime while meeting your neighbors, local businesses and emergency responders who care and make a difference. This free community event, brought by the Edmonds Police Foundation, combines family fun with public safety awareness and includes kids’ activities, entertainment, demonstrations and food. Look for the My Edmonds News table and stop by to say hello.

The event starts at the Frances Anderson Center playfield from 5-8 p.m. to meet Edmonds police and fire officials, the K-9 Unit, SWAT Unit, public safety agencies from South Snohomish County, local businesses and non-profit organizations. Come check out the emergencies vehicles, the SWAT Unit’s bus, the K-9 unit police car and the always popular fire truck.
