[PHOTOS] West Islip Memorial Day Parade

Community gathers to honor service members and remember those who gave their lives for freedom.

The 58th annual West Islip Memorial Day Parade was held under sunny, blue skies with temperatures that signified summer is here. Taking its usual trek south down Udall Road and Higbie Lane to Paul J. Bellew Elementary School, the parade featured members of American Legion Post 1738, the high school cheerleaders, color guard and marching band, and a host of youth and community groups. Also, the fire department was once again out in force showing off their Sunday best.

While we are showcasing numerous images from Monday's parade, Patch spotted several West Islip residents at the parade armed with their cameras; and some nice ones, too. You can easily share your photos with your neighbors by uploading images to Patch.

You can thank all these POS politicians for the new gun legislation designed to make law abidingRead More citizens give up their second amendment rights out of sheer frustration and incontinence of owning a gun legally for increases in savage on citizen violence. This is only the beginning and in short time many New Yorker's will be forced to remain in their homes fearing one of these animals will make them their pray. I for one believe in the old adage, it's better to be judged by 12 than carried by 6.

Has anyone been able to find out if we are losing money renting this building to this for profitRead More preschool? If I under stood correctly from previous post's, there may be some friendship with one or more BOE members which paved the way for their lease.

I think Proposition 2 is a great idea, in the current structure you have to "call out" anRead More individual basically saying "I think you are doing a particularly bad job". Politics get dirty enough as is and I think this will increase participation and ultimately give us a better Board of Education.

Why didn't the author run for the open seat this year? Bark of a wolf and courage of a lamb.
