FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Edina neighborhoods to celebrate Night to Unite
Edina, Minn., July 3, 2013 –As the first Tuesday of August nears, so does Edina’s Night to Unite. The
annual event will take place in neighborhoods and parks around the City on Tuesday, Aug. 6, from 6 to 8:30
p.m.
The Edina Police Department encourages neighborhoods to join forces with communities statewide for Night
to Unite, a national crime prevention event. Neighbors are encouraged to lock their doors, turn on outside
lights and spend the evening outdoors with neighbors.
Last year, 25 Night to Unite block parties were registered with the City of Edina.
Officers are available to attend parties. However, resources are limited, so register early to request an officer.
The deadline to register is Tuesday, July 26.
Night to Unite was created to promote neighborhood spirit, increase awareness in crime prevention and
build a stronger police-community partnership.
To register your block party or for more information, contact Taunya Hegyi at 952-826-1610 or
