The quickest way to get caught up on the most important things happening today in Sachem.
Hey, hello! It's me, Andrew Tessler, your host of the Sachem Daily. Keep reading for everything you need to know about what's happening in town these days.
First, today's weather:
Mostly cloudy, showers around. High: 73 low: 62.
Here are the top 3 stories in Sachem today:
- Sports and entertainments venue might be canned from the proposed Midway Crossing air terminal and convention center in Ronkonkoma. The 2.7 million square-foot project includes an indoor arena and outdoor venue, health sciences facilities, a hotel, and a new terminal for MacArthur Airport. In recent developments, an agreement was reached between lawmakers and Chicago based developer JLC to remove the venues. (Sachem Patch)
- Winning NY Lotto tickets sold in Suffolk, one in Holbrook. The local winner was from Monday night's Take 5 drawing, and the $33,024 ticket was purchased at Elite Group Holbrook on Veterans Highway, according to officials. (Sachem Patch)
