Here are the top stories today in Huntington:

  1. Annual Winter Wonderland returns to South Huntington. The annual Winter Wonderland returned to the South Huntington School District. Last year's event was put on hold in person and held virtually due to the coronavirus pandemic. Three bouncy houses, a mini ice rink, petting zoo, and three food trucks were all stationed in front of the school. The interior of the school was also filled with holiday decorations. (Huntington Patch)
  2. Priciest home sales in Dix Hills. As the real estate market cools off a little, check out the three priciest homes on the market last month from neighboring Dix Hills. Dix Hills is a great alternative to Huntington, right off the parkways and still a short drive to all the good destinations in the Town of Huntington. (Long Island Business News)
  3. Coronavirus Suffolk County case update: November 30. With the news of the first positive case of the new Omicron variant, make sure you stay updated with everything going on COVID-19 related in the Town of Huntington.
