Hello all. It's me, Andrew Tessler, your host of the Sachem Daily. Let's get this weekend started off right, with a quick dive into the most important things happening in town these days...
First, today's weather:
Mostly sunny and warmer. High: 85 low: 66.
Here are the top 3 stories today in Sachem:
- Weekend weather forecast shaping up to perfection. As we head into the weekend, the sun will be shining, and temperatures will be in the mid 80s. It's a perfect first weekend of summer to hit the beach and catch some rays and we hope you enjoy it! (Patch)
- Ronkonkoma mother searching for kidney donor to help her 20-year-old son. Reggie Berrios is an otherwise healthy young adult, running his own business after graduating from Sachem North High School but a kidney disease runs in his family, and he desperately needs a donor. His mom, Eleanor Di Maggio-Lalima, has started a social media campaign to find a donor for Reggie. Learn more about the campaign in the link. (Sachem Patch)
- Patch asks readers when it's OK to set off fireworks in the neighborhood. As we head into July 4 next weekend, fireworks will become commonplace in the sky. Check out answers Patch readers gave on when they believe it's OK for neighbors to shoot them off. (Patch)
