City of Plymouth issued the following announcement on Aug. 27.
In the interest of public health and safety, the City of Plymouth has canceled this year’s Night to Unite event.
The annual statewide crime prevention and community-building event, typically held in August, had been rescheduled for Oct. 6. However, like many area cities, Plymouth’s event has been canceled due to continuing COVID-19 concerns.
“The decision to cancel Night to Unite was difficult,” said Deputy Chief Erik Fadden. “We look forward to the event each year. We’re especially saddened to cancel it when social interactions are already so limited, but community health and safety is our priority.”
While the Plymouth Public Safety Department typically offers a range of community engagement events throughout the year, in addition to Night to Unite, most community outreach initiatives has been temporarily discontinued due to COVID-19.
Citywide Alert Plymouth Test set for Oct. 6
The City of Plymouth will still conduct the annual test of its emergency notification system, Alert Plymouth, at 5 p.m. Tuesday, Oct. 6. To sign up, visit plymouthmn.gov/alertplymouth.
