RE: Neighborhood Night Out 2019
______________________________________________________________________
Mark your calendars! This year’s Neighborhood Night Out (“NNO”) is Tuesday, August
6, 2019. Part of the National Night Out program, NNO in Fort Collins continues to be
one of the most anticipated and widely supported events in the City. Neighbors share
that the continued support of City Council truly contributes to the success of their
events. Historically, City Councilmembers dropped by to visit NNO events in their
Council Districts and we hope you would like to continue this tradition. Your willingness
to participate and continue involvement demonstrates the commitment elected officials
have to residents across the City and the importance you place on Fort Collins
neighborhoods.
To help facilitate NNO visits, Neighborhood Services provides Councilmembers with a
map and event details for all the registered events occurring in their districts. How and
where you spend the evening is up to you. With more than 100 events citywide, it may
be unrealistic to visit every event. City staff from several departments, Police Services,
and Poudre Fire Authority will also be visiting as many NNO events that request our
participation as possible. If you prefer to travel with a City staff team to visit NNO

events, indicate your preference when you confirm your availability. If you are unable to
participate please let us know and we can send a letter to the event hosts in your
district.
This year, we are replacing the “goodie bags” distributed to neighborhood events with
$25 gift cards to support event needs for the first 100 registered NNO events. Neighbors
and participants are once again invited to use #FoCoNightOut to increase social media
presence and NNO awareness. We encourage you to utilize this hashtag when posting
on social media too. Thank you and please let Neighborhood Services know if you have
any questions or suggestions. Call 970-224-6046 or email
