It is usually held in August but was moved this year because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

The Lower Merion Police Department will host a food drive at the parking lot of the department's headquarters from 4 p.m. until 7 p.m. in place of the traditional National Night Out Festival.

"Since we are unable to bring you the usual exciting events that come with National Night Out we are doing this 'DRIVE THRU' event," Lower Merion police said.
