• Proposed Lake Ronkonkoma fireworks show sparks controversy (news12.com) — A Nesconset resident is among those backing a proposed Memorial Day weekend fireworks show over nearby Lake Ronkonkoma, which supporters say would be a beautiful, crowd‑drawing kickoff to summer. Environmental advocates and some veterans, however, warn about pollution, risks to recently returned bald eagles, and whether loud celebrations fit the solemn spirit of Memorial Day.
