9 National Night Out Celebrations Scheduled For Bergen County Towns On Tuesday

BERGEN COUNTY, NJ — The Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office will once again collaborate with nine local police departments to "celebrate the importance of getting to know your neighbors to build a supportive atmosphere of safety and unity" at National Night Out celebrations.

These celebrations often include events, music, food, law enforcement demonstrations, and more.

National Night Out, held on the first Tuesday of August in communities across the country each year, brings together members of law enforcement and public safety to promote and support police-community relationships. Whether on stoops or at festivals, it shows that neighbors stand together against crime.

Glen Rock, Paramus, and Saddle Brook are among the towns with an event planned Tuesday night.

However, some events in New Jersey have been canceled due to expected rainy weather and possible flooding, so check before heading over.

“We view National Night Out as a valuable opportunity to share important crime prevention and safety messages as we engage with local residents,” said Prosecutor Mark Musella. “This annual event encourages a true sense of community by providing a welcoming atmosphere where residents can interact with their neighbors and law enforcement.”

Representatives from the Bergen County Prosecutor’s Office will join local police departments at these celebrations:

• Hackensack – 6 to 10 pm on The Green (Main St. & Court St.)
• Harrington Park – 6 to 9 pm in Highland Field
• Haworth – 5 to 8 pm at Memorial Field, 255 Whitman Street
• New Milford – 7 to 10 pm at Kennedy Field, 930 River Road
• Palisades Park – 5:30 to 8 pm at Lindbergh School, 401 Glen Avenue
• Paramus – 5 to 7 pm at Public Library, 116 East Century Road
• Rochelle Park – 6 to 9 pm at Midland School, 300 Rochelle Ave
