Organizing a party

A successful event depends on careful planning and providing enough notice to neighbors.  Talking with neighbors as early as possible is a great place to start.  See who is interested in helping plan the event. This will help shape what type of party would work best for neighborhood.

Neighborhood participation

Sending invitations to all neighbors is a great reminder about the upcoming event. 

Neighborhoods are also encouraged to invite another block to join your party, especially if that block is not planning a Night to Unite celebration or is not part of a Neighborhood Watch association. Several blocks may wish to combine their Night to Unite gatherings into a larger celebration.

Residents and businesses in Arden Hills, Falcon Heights, Little Canada, North Oaks, Shoreview, Vadnais Heights, and White Bear Township are encouraged to plan and hold a Night to Unite event in your neighborhood. For other communities within Ramsey County, please contact your local law enforcement agency.
