The City of Carmel is taking a stand against crime, and the entire community is invited to support the initiative.
The annual National Night Out event is set for 6 to 8 p.m. Aug. 1 at the gazebo at Carmel City Hall, 1 Civic Square. It provides an opportunity for the public to show support for a safer community and build stronger relationships with police officers and firefighters. First responders will be on hand to answer questions and share safety information.
Carmel Police Dept. Sgt. Donald Schoeff said CPD already enjoys a great relationship with the community.
“These positive relationships are a significant part in helping our city remain safe and one of the best places for families to live,” he said.
The free event is hosted by the Carmel police and fire departments. It will include hot dogs, pizza, drinks, music and activities for kids. Attendees are encouraged to bring tables, chairs or their own food items.
