Long IsLand FaLL FestIvaL Plans are underway for the 23rd Annual Long Island Fall Festival at Heckscher Park this Columbus Day weekend. Hosted by the Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce and the Town of Huntington, the event has something for everyone. The festival begins with a world-class carnival and live music on Friday, Oct. 7, from 5 to 10 p.m. On Saturday, Oct. 8 and Sunday, Oct. 9, from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., attendees can enjoy the carnival and four stages of live music as well as enter contests and purchase merchandise from street vendors. Merchants will line up along Prime and Madison streets, adjacent to Heckscher Park, as well as within the grounds of the park. On Monday, Oct. 10, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., the festival will offer the carnival and in-park vendors for another day of fall fun. A food court will be available all four days and admission to the festival is free.
How to get there:
Heckscher Park is located at Prime Ave. and Rte. 25A in Huntington. In addition to street parking, attendees can find free parking at the Huntington LIRR station and take a shuttle bus for $1 round trip.
How to participate:
It takes more than organizers and attendees to make a festival a successful one. Sponsorships: The Long Island Fall Festival offers unparalleled

marketing, advertising and promotional opportunities to corporate sponsors. It also seeks ways to showcase the important work of local charities, providing revenuegenerating opportunities and the philanthropic side of the business community. Don’t hesitate to inquire — sponsor space goes quickly. Vendors: Hundreds of vendors, including local artists, businesses, arts and crafts, and non-profit organiza-
tions, line the streets, showcasing their products and services. If you are interested in becoming a vendor, act fast as space is limited. Volunteers: An event this large could not happen without the support of volunteers who help ensure a safe and smooth event for guests. Volunteer for a few hours, a full day or the entire weekend. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. Every volunteer receives a volunteer festi-
val T-shirt, bottled water and snacks. For more information and to get involved in this year’s Long Island Fall Festival, call 631-423-6100 or visit www.lifallfestival.com.
