On Tuesday, August 4th, 2026, neighborhoods throughout San Rafael are being invited to join forces with thousands of communities nationwide for the “43rd Annual National Night Out” (NNO) crime prevention event.

We are looking forward to coming face to face with the community for one night of fun and festivities throughout our city.  From 6:00 pm to 8:30 pm on August 4th, residents in neighborhoods throughout San Rafael and across the nation are asked to turn on outside lights and spend the evening with neighbors and police. Many neighborhoods will be hosting a variety of special events such as block parties, cookouts, contests, youth activities, and more. This is a night to send a powerful message about neighborhood unity, crime prevention awareness, safety, and police-community partnerships. Let’s show that San Rafael is united and dedicated to building a safer, more caring community.

If you want to hold an event, you must fill out the registration form, including a detailed description of your activities (locations, time, schedule, number of people, activities, etc.) San Rafael Police, Fire Department personnel, and elected officials will visit as many parties as possible.

Please send your registration form to Antonette Bullock, SRPD NNO Coordinator, no later than July 29, 2025. For more information, you can contact her at 415-485-3114 or email at 511@srpd.org. We look forward to your participation in this event!
