Everyone knows that this weekend is one of the
busiest weekends for traveling. Second only to the Fourth of July holiday,
Memorial Day weekend is one of the busiest for car travel.
The more traveling it also means the more
accidents that can occur. Knowing full well what comes along with the
traditional summer season kick-off celebration, law enforcement, AAA and first
responders will be out in full swing statewide. In the state of New York they
always launch programs for this weekend, more police men and women go to the
streets to try to stop drunk drivers and check seat beats.
But Don't worry here are some ideas of the
things you can do this weekend.
After hurricane sandy many of our local beaches
were badly damaged and have been gone through repairs and although the weather
is not cooperating much this yr all our
state beaches and parks are being reopened this weekend. Although the mark
of sandy's destruction still can be seen and some things still under
construction there , you can have access to the beaches and parks, now we need
the sun to come out!
Brookhaven
Fair: Farmingville NY. This
fair is very traditional of this weekend. Bring your kids and enjoy of a good
time. Open from May 24th - June 9th Visit the website to buy tickets!
Another
traditional activity is Little Neck–Douglaston Memorial Day Parade
Honor fallen members of the United States Armed Forces
at the largest of the city’s Memorial Day parades. Bring your handheld Old
Glory and cheer on local members of the military, veterans, marching bands,
Brownie troops and Boy Scouts as they march westward along Northern Boulevard
in Queens from Great Neck to Douglaston.
An Of Course There is much more these are just some
Ideas but dont forget that, well, it isn’t just about
day-drinking and savoring extra time away from your desk—it honors the men and
women who have died while serving in our armed forces. Pause during your BBQ to
remember the sacrifices made for the red, white and blue, and check out one of
the Memorial Day parades happening in each of the five boroughs. Memorial Day weekend also
marks the unofficial start to summer in New York.
Here are the best events, beaches, parks, memorials,
concerts, vacation spots and other things to do throughout the three-day
weekend.
Don’t spend your precious days off waiting
around in airport lounges; easy day trips and overnights are just a car, train
or bus ride away. Whether you’re looking for adventurous outdoor activities, sunbathing, beaches off the beaten track, culinary
destinations (lobster-shack road trip!) or culture, we’ve found plenty of
weekend getaways to satisfy your wanderlust.
