Both the boys and girls Nassau and Suffolk County All-Star Basketball teams met recently for an awareness event at the Amsterdam at Harborside in Port Washington.

The teams will face off on Sunday in the 3rd annual All Star Basketball Classic to raise money for Alzheimer's Research.

Members of the team underwent a virtual dementia tour to experience what it's like to have Alzheimer's disease. Check out the video for the highlights.

The TONH should be under some investigation for charging such a high fee for a very short summer…Read More season. You lose most of june and the pool closes in early September. Better off paying as you go just purchase the parking permit which is good at the Manorhaven Pool and the Harbor beach. Stop buying a season pass in protest to the yearly excessive price increase.
