On Saturday August 3, 2013, my wife Marie and I went to the Venetian Beach Hut in Lindenhurst, NY, to see a “60s Band;” we inadvertently walked into a Class Reunion. The people that were running the Reunion were under a tent giving out name tags. I spoke to an organizer of the Lindenhurst High School Any Year Reunion; he told me that every time he plans a reunion, everyone wants to attend. The novel solution is simple; invite "everybody." Publicity for this event was mainly through Facebook.

 A tent was set-up on the Beach, near the Lindenhurst Beach Hut, a local night club, that normally schedules bands to entertain its regular customers. I have no idea as to how many people were Alumni, but 800 people showed up at the Venetian Beach Hut.

It was really fun talking to some very interesting people!  So... we had a wonderful time at the “Lindenhurst High School Any Class Reunion!”  LOL.  I graduated from Sachem High School in Lake Ronkonkoma. Class of 59! LOL

There's "alota fun" out there! When I get excited about something, I just love to express myself in "Brooklyneese." You can take the boy "outta" Brooklyn, but you can’t take the Brooklyn "outta da" boy. LOL
