Tucked away on the west side of the small town of Broad Channel in the middle of Jamiaca Bay is a narrow, dead end, street that goes by the name of West 12th Road. Those of us who live there know that the nice part about living in a small town is that when you are not quite sure what is going on, someone else always does! [Peter J. Mahon West 12th Road, Broad Channel]

A Good Cause.....
Every year, for more than a decade, the Mure Family have transformed their house in Neponsit into a winter wonderland we have come to know as "The Little North Pole" to raise money for the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF).
This year, the Mure family is requesting that you join them this Sunday, October 23rd, between 5:00pm and 7:00pm, at their house (144-03 Neponsit Avenue) for a "Halloween Spooktacular" featuring live entertainment, music, rides, food, drinks, plenty of candy and a costume contest.
The "Batmobile" from the 1960's television series "Batman" starring Adam West and Burt Ward will also be there!
The Mure's recently met Valentina Priolo, a 4 year old girl who suffers from Rett's Syndrome, and decided to host this "Halloween Spooktacular" as a means of raising both funds and awareness of Rett's Syndrome, a disorder of the nervous system that leads to developmental reversals, especially in the areas of expressive language and hand use and occurs almost exclusively in girls.
