Catch a Drive-In Movie Tonight; Pirates to Land in Sayville Next Month

It looks like the new animal hospital and care center is nearly ready to open its doors on Montauk Highway in Sayville. There also seems to be a new ‘pet animal clinic’ at the corner of Gillette Avenue and Montauk in Bayport these days. Does that mean more people have more pets these days or are just taking better care of pets one has to wonder.

The West Sayville Fire Department is running one of the most fun and unique fundraisers tonight – a drive-in movie experience. That brings back great memories of the old Patchogue Drive-in where Nicols Road pretty much sits right now where it meets Sunrise Highway. Showtime is 8 p.m., and it’s $20 per vehicle. It’s being shown at Bosti Elementary School in Bohemia. The feature presentation is “Footloose.” 

Not a bad way to end a week and kick-off a weekend and support a great local fire department. Very cool idea.
