2. ICYMI: The Suds Boss of Huntington offers vehicle detailing throughout Long Island. New York winters are cold, long, and dirty on your car. The Suds Boss brings vehicle detailing to you and services all of Long Island. Thomas Pinto, 27, was originally a real estate agent and bus driver before the pandemic. When COVID-19 hit, his bus company shut down and he realized he didn't like real estate as much as he thought. Pinto went all on his former side gig auto detailing and launched the Suds Boss in 2020. "I build very good relationships," Pinto said. "It's not just getting dropped off to a car wash with 10 to 15 different guys. It's just me and a couple of guys, so I make it very personal. It's the experience of being mobile."(Huntington Patch)
3. Oyster Bay ice rinks will be charging only $2 for admission on Tuesday. Admission will be $2 and rental skates will also be $2 for families who bring two non-perishable items to support the Skate for a Cause event. “The date of 2/22/22 is unique in that it falls this year during most school district’s winter break, where many families and children are looking for fun staycation opportunities,” said Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Saladino. “We invite our residents to help us ‘double our efforts’ in collecting non-perishable food items on 2/22, welcoming them to skate for just $2 at any of our wonderful three ice skating facilities.”(LongIsland.com)
