Talk Back: What's the Best Part of Summerfest?

The Sayville chamber's annual extravaganza is this weekend. What's your favorite part?

There are many great things about Summerfest: music, rides, entertainment, vendors with great goods, great food, a classic car show and even a fly-over by old planes thanks to Bayport Aerodrome.

In fact there's only one bad thing Patch can say about Summerfest: it sort of marks the fact that summer is in its second half.

So what's your favorite part? Do you get that neat Henna tattoo every year or long for the grilled corn vendor? Do you just like perusing the dozens of vendor tents or can't wait to see what new classic cars will be proudly shown off?

Take our poll and comment below and we'll share on Friday when the three-day event kicks off.

And so the taxpayer is once again asked to give more to an already out of control and bloatedRead More system. Every year the school districts on Long Island receive increases of millions of dollars to their budgets, and still they want to bleed the taxpayer for more. As two income families struggle to pay exorbitant tax bills, we’re asked to pay even more? We’ll here’s a novel idea, how about if the teachers union’s began demanding less? This early retirement baloney must stop, salaries should be capped, administrators and their staffs must be cut by at least eighty percent. In addition, educators and staff should have to pay for their own medical and retirement plans just as the rest of us must. Here on Long Island, families are suffering and sacrificing, and many are being forced to leave due to taxes which are out of control. It is time for educators to cease hiding behind children with threats of decreased student programs, and to make an honest and realistic observation as to why things are as bad as they are. To blame parents for not paying enough into the system to support the schools is ludicrous. The real problem lies in a system which is self serving, and run by incompetents blind to the harm they are inflicting upon our children and families.
