The Fishers Police Department is gearing up to celebrate National Night Out on Tuesday, August 1, 2023, 5-7pm, with an Open-House event at their headquarters located on Municipal Drive. The annual National Night Out campaign aims to strengthen police-community partnerships and foster neighborhood camaraderie in an effort to create safer and more caring communities for residents.

“This is a night to open the doors of the police department to show the community the resources in place to make our community a safe place to live and work” said Fishers Police Chief, Ed Gebhart. “National Night Out is a perfect night for our city to stand together and promote awareness, safety, and neighborhood unity with an added bonus of a concert at the Nickel Plate Amphitheater later in the evening.”

Fishers Police say the National Night is a “community-building campaign that promotes strong police-community partnerships and neighborhood camaraderie to make our neighborhoods safer, more caring places to live and work. Many neighborhoods celebrate the end of summer with block parties, cookouts, and other various events. For National Night Out, we invite you to the police station to learn more about your police department.”

Fishers officers are inviting residents to join them for an experiential evening of learning and fun. Police have several activities planned for all ages to include police vehicles and equipment displays, crime scene collection display, crime prevention information and much more!

The Fishers Police Corps will be serving free hotdogs, chips, cookies, and water. Parking is available in the parking garage. Visitors may enter through the front doors to tour the first floor or can join directly from the Nickel Plate Trail.
