Announcement:
We have set the date for anyone interested in getting together in NY. A small group of us plan to get together on Saturday, August 4th on Long Island. We may do something on Thursday and/or Friday as well for anyone who can stay in NY for a few days. Maybe a visit to the city or the beach or both. The best area to stay would be near the LI MacArthur Airport. I can help anyone with hotels if they need help finding a good area to stay at reasonable rates. Hope you can join us! More information to come soon.
