🎉 Weekend Introduction

It’s the kind of summer weekend that gives *main character energy*. You could start with yoga by the lighthouse, adopt a kitten by noon, rock out to a Beatles tribute in the evening — and still have time for ice cream and a boat cruise. With over 60 events happening from Amityville to Wheatley Heights, the Town of Babylon is absolutely lit 🔥. Let’s break it down by day…

🌟 Featured Event of the Weekend

🎶 Paumanauke Pow Wow at Tanner Park (Sat & Sun)

Now in its 43rd year, the Paumanauke Pow Wow is an incredible cultural celebration hosted at Tanner Park in Copiague. Enjoy two days of traditional drumming, dancing, delicious native food, artisan vendors, and immersive cultural education. It’s family-friendly, interactive, and a beautiful way to celebrate Indigenous heritage on the South Shore. We did a deep dive on it and you can see that here. Don’t miss this vibrant community gathering!
