Taking full advantage of an opportunity to build community and create safer neighborhoods, people took to the streets tonight to renew acquaintances and meet neighbors for the first time during National Night Out.
Greenwoodstock, one of the bigger events in the area, drew a steady crowd of people who played in the park…
and listened to three bands…
as they munched on grilled pizza margherita.
Here’s video of the event, featuring the Bubble Man and Jeff Fielder and Black Market, as well as shots of the the pizza. Mmmmmm, pizza….
Send in your pictures and we’ll post the best here.

Dan P. sent in this photo of the scene at 89th and Linden where more than 50 people showed up and they had a badminton net stretched across the street:
