Share Your National Night Out Against Crime Photos

The 2012 was gearing up Tuesday afternoon in Fort Greene Park for the evening's festivities.

The nationwide program of events is designed to bring communities and the police forces protecting them closer together in a stress-free and family-friendly setting.

Fort Greene's event is being hosted by the 88th Precinct at the Dekalb Ave. and Washington Park from 1:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m.

Here's some photos from this afternoon before the event had really gotten going. But if you're heading over yourself, why not take some snapshots of the fun and share them with your fellow Patch readers? Just click on the "Upload Photos and Videos" button and they will be added to this photo gallery.

And if you don't want to wait until you get home to send the photos and your camera phone supports e-mailing pictures, you can send them to robert.myers@patch.com.
