National Night Out 2025.
National Night Out (NNO) 2025 in Fort Worth was a huge success, bringing residents together to socialize outdoors and build community bonds. The event featured neighborhood cookouts, mouthwatering chili cookoffs, bike rides, children's coloring contest, karaoke bouts, and visits from our first responders, council members, and special guests who made rounds to many neighborhood gatherings.

Fort Worth residents, first responders, code compliance, i.e. connected in a positive and festive atmosphere, strengthening relationships that help make neighborhoods safer and more caring. NNO is part of a larger traditions expanding across Texas. Fort Worth Police Department would like to extend our heartfelt appreciation to all those that hosted and attended a NNO event.

Schools and Daycare Visits -
NPO's are often invited to partake in reading activities such as the one seen here. NPO's provide age-appropriate educational material in gun safety, bike safety, provide patrol vehicle demonstrations. These types of activities allow children to bond with officers and the uniform in a more relatable, approachable manner. Children feel confident and less intimidated when needing assistance.

Gloomy Weather Didn't Dampen Spirits during October Fall Festival Events
It would have taken a lot more than threat of rain to keep families away from several fall festivals held locally in north Fort Worth. North Division police officers and volunteers greeted children with police giveaways, provided patrol vehicle demonstrations, free bikes, free bike helmets and even a chance to have their picture taken with McGruff the Crime Dog. Fort Worth Police Department North Division would like to thank Schluter Elementary School and Christ's Haven for Children for the opportunity to partnership with them at their annual fall festivities.
