Fight crime locally at Buriens National Night Out on Tuesday, Aug. 3

Burien will celebrate National Night Out on August 3, 2021, reinforcing community bonds and police partnerships. The event, held annually on the first Tuesday in August, typically features more than 25 block parties across the city. Police encourage all residents to participate, whether they are continuing a tradition or starting anew. Registration is available online or through email and phone, with a deadline set for July 3. Timely registration also allows participants to enter a drawing for a potential visit from local police or fire crews.

This initiative aims to strengthen neighborly ties and foster a sense of security within the community. National Night Out is part of a broader national movement encouraging towns to engage with law enforcement. Community involvement in such events can lead to improved safety and a stronger sense of belonging among residents.
