GETTING ARIZONA INVOLVED IN NEIGHBORHOODS (G.A.I.N.)
Getting Arizona Involved in Neighborhoods (G.A.I.N.) is Arizona’s answer to National Night Out, which is held in August. Because
of the soaring 105° temperatures in August, communities statewide observe National Night Out in October and call it G.A.I.N. The
observed day celebrates the successes of crime prevention through community involvement. Block Watches citywide participate in
block parties to show support for the efforts of those involved in the fight against crime. The City of Litchfield Park hosts a public safety
G.A.I.N. event at the Litchfield Elementary School Fall Carnival, held every year on the last Friday in October at the school grounds.
