As your township prepares for National Night Out on August 5, don’t forget to take photos and send them to PSATS for the 2026 PSATS Calendar! Of course, 2026 also marks the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, and as we travel toward that milestone, townships have a lot to celebrate, and we want to see those celebrations that bring your communities together! From summer picnics to haunted hayrides and Christmas events, PSATS wants photos of festivities and community events in your township for the 2026 calendar. In addition to National Night Out observances, photos could include:

• community days;

• concerts;

• “movie in the park” events;

• fairs, festivals, and firemen’s carnivals;

• recycling events;

• educational events;

• school presentations and youth engagement activities;

• community cleanup days;

• fundraisers;

• holiday events and activities;

• any other memorable events, programs, presentations, or celebrations in your township!

To reproduce well in print, photos must have a resolution of at least 300 dpi at a size of 4 inches x 6 inches. Photos taken with a smartphone are fine, but please send them as “actual” or “original” size to ensure full resolution. Photos should be in color. Email photos as jpeg attachments to bwilt@psats.org by Constitution Day, September 17, 2025. Provide your name, position, township, county, and daytime telephone number. Please include a description of your submission and identify any township officials in photos, along with their title or position.
