FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Night To Unite Registration Now Open
Edina, Minn., July 8, 2015 – Every year, neighborhoods across the country celebrate Night to Unite the
first Tuesday in August. The Edina Police and Fire-Rescue & Inspections departments encourage residents to
lock their doors, turn on outside lights and spend the evening outside with neighbors Aug. 2.
Last year, more than 80 Night to Unite block parties were registered with the City of Edina. Party organizers
can request a visit by a police car, fire truck, ambulance, Animal Control, Sparky, K-9 Officer or Bike Patrol
Officer. Resources are limited, so register early to request a visitor.
“Edina has a great community feel and part of that is due to strong neighborhood events like this,” said Sgt.
Brian Hubbard, who is organizing this year’s Night to Unite. “The evening offers neighbors a chance to get to
know one another better, get questions answered and bring local police and fire departments and
communities together for a fun night.”
Night to Unite was created to promote neighborhood spirit, increase awareness in crime prevention and
build a stronger partnership between the police and fire departments and community members.
To register, call the Edina Police Department at 952-826-1610 or visit EdinaMN.gov/Police and click on the
“Night to Unite” button.
