From the City of University Place: 

It is getting to be that time of year again – time for University Place citizens to turn on outside lights, lock your doors and step outside to join neighbors in the fight against crime. National Night Out is always the first Tuesday of August and will take place this year on Tuesday, Aug. 6.  

National Night Out is designed to: Heighten crime and drug prevention awareness; strengthen neighborhood spirit and police-community partnerships; and send a message to criminals letting them know that neighborhoods are organized and fighting back.

University Place Police, together with West Pierce Fire & Rescue, the U.P. City Council, Fire & City Commissioners and staff will be caravanning all around the City in police and fire vehicles visiting all University Place neighborhoods that register by Friday, Aug. 2.

Register your neighborhood today by calling University Place Police at 253.798.3141. This is our opportunity to honor University Place neighborhoods that partner with police and fire to successfully reduce crime and increase safety in our City!
 
Don’t wait! Start organizing your block party today and register your neighborhood by calling 253.798.3141.
