Fishers Police Invites Residents to Upcoming National Night Out Event

Fishers Police Chief Ed Gebhart has invited the Fishers community to the Fishers Police Department’s National Night Out Open House on Sept. 29 from 5 -7 p.m. at the Fishers Police Department.

National Night Out is an annual community-building campaign that promotes police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make local neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live. National Night Out enhances the relationship between neighbors and law enforcement while bringing back a true sense of community. Furthermore, it provides a great opportunity to bring police and neighbors together under positive circumstances.

Citizens, law enforcement agencies, community groups, businesses, youth organizations and local, state, and federal officials from 16,377 communities from all 50 states, U.S. territories and military bases worldwide will join forces to celebrate the 38th Annual National Night Out – a community crime and safety event sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch.

Fishers PD is encouraging all Fishers citizens to join them for a great evening of fun and fellowship. There are a number of activities planned for all ages to take part in, including vehicle, drone and equipment displays, crime scene collection display, crime prevention information and much more. Free hotdogs, chips and cookies will also be provided.

This year’s event is being dedicated to the life and service of fallen Elwood Police Officer Noah Shahnavaz.
