Photos/ Video: National Night Out is a two-block party in Montclair

Since 1984, the first Tuesday in August is the National Night Out in the United States and Canada. The event has grown from the front yard and backyard cookouts to full-blown festivals in 16,000 communities. The Montclair Police Department Community Service Unit annually organizes a 'block party' on South Park and Church streets, building connections between the community, the police, municipal and civic service organizations, and local businesses.
