Dear Long Islander,
After welcoming November with a long, wet week, there's something to look forward to this weekend - sunshine! The temperature may be dropping, and it's getting dark earlier, but that doesn't mean the fun is slowing down here on Long Island - in fact, there's plenty to do! This weekend, in addition to the many family fun events, concerts, and activities happening, there are also numerous Veteran's Day Events, honoring local vets across Long Island. No matter what you do this weekend, be sure to take a moment to honor our local heroes who have bravely protected our country, and thank a veteran for their honorable service!
