To do this weekend. Why not head to Old Bethpage? The Long Island Fair kicks off today. It's one of the best ones around for Fall. Our Gen C League is at Old Bethpage Village restoration with everything we can expect. Not fall yet, but definitely a fun Fall fair. Jen. I was going to say it feels like fall here with all these activities going on with this pumpkin behind me and I'm also with Darcy Belle. She is the commissioner, Parks commissioner for Nassau County and Darcy. I just want you to take a guess at how much that pumpkin weighs. I'm afraid to guess. I have no idea. I would give it in the 150 pound range, but I'm not quite sure. But people who come to the fair this weekend will have an opportunity to guess and win $100 prize. That is awesome. This pumpkin is from Comac and actually all the produce that's here is from Long Island. So it's really cool to see this fair. You know, it's an annual event and, and bringing Long Islanders together. We know it's a traditional event for many families. Absolutely. And we try and change up the exhibits and the performers each year. And this year we have, we have some really exciting new ones. So the weather, the weather is gonna be beautiful. We hope that we have one comes out and joins us L I fair.org for more information, 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Last ticket sold at 330. But you wanna kind of plan on coming and spending the afternoon with us or at least part of the day. It's really cool because this is something for all, you know, ages to come, all ages babies in strollers to seniors. Um And I'm so pleased that our exhibits this year, we had so many seniors join us this year to put in entries and even young people as well. So it really is a family, true family event. I love it. And the fair kicks off this morning, morning at 10 a.m. Friday and Saturday as well. Last year, the weather didn't cooper this year, the weather forecast is perfect. I love it. So we're going to have some fun here at the fair and send things back to you guys in the studio.
