Next Tuesday, Aug. 3, is the NYPD's National Night Out Against Crime, an annual event organized by local precincts' community councils. They usually feature refreshments, music, entertainment and safety presentations from local officers. In addition to being an overall good time, the goal of the event is to strengthen neighborhood relations with the police and to heighten crime awareness.

- 52nd Precinct: Poe Park, at East 192nd and the Grand Concourse, from 5 to 8 p.m. Contact community affairs at (718) 220-5824.
- 48th Precinct: In Belmont's "Little Italy" on Arthur Avenue and East 187th Street, from 3 to 9 p.m. Contact community affairs at (718) 299-4522.
