The Sayville Chamber of Commerce
sponsored the Annual Fall Festival on Main Street and South
Main Street on October 7th. This year the food vendors were
a welcomed addition to the live music, petting zoo, ponies,
art show, autumn flower and pumpkins arrangements along
side Main Street. South Main Street had the Fear Factory
haunted house, games, Carrousel, haunted purple Bouncer and
plenty of families enjoying the Carnival atmosphere.
Francine's Bridal Connection,
Irish Crossroads, Mystic Dreams and Carpet Yard along the
South Main Street had their merchandise featured outside and
encouraged fair enthusiasts to visit their stores for more
shopping.
On Main Street Stop & Shop,
Bayport Flower House and The Flower & Garden Shoppe of
Sayville decorated Downtown Sayville with
pumpkins, mums, haystacks and
scarecrows.
The Mothers' Center of South
Shore handed out black and orange balloons to match the
festival's theme and spread the word about their center. The
Mothers Center of the South Shore, is a non-profit,
non-sectarian, volunteer organization, and is member
supported. Donations from individuals and businesses are
always greatly appreciated, and help families toward a
better future. It was founded in 1977 by a group of
concerned women, who felt the need to share their feelings
and experiences of motherhood.
PAWS sold Raffle tickets in an
effort to raise money for their non-profit organization
which rescues stray cats and kittens, nurses them back to
health, and spays or neuters them.
Sayville Fitness, a new business
in town located behind Prince of Peace, gave a spinning
class demonstration and answered fitness questions for all
interested in finding out more about free classes for Brest
Cancer patients, Boot camp classes for kids, yoga, Pilates,
Tai-chi Chaun and cardio kick boxing.
Miles to Daytona
entertained fair goers with their music in front of
Washington Mutual Bank and children fed lamas,
sheep, goats and other farm critters.
As any other events happening in
Sayville, the Fall Festival this year was a successful
gathering of families and friends and another reminder of
the wonderful hamlet we live in.
