In September the children and parents in residence at Ronald McDonald House got a big treat….Chris Palmer, Executive Chef of Maxwell & Dunne’s (and Long Island Way member!) came to prepare dinner. He had given Marie and Susan a list of what to shop for, and he brought all his own spices, knives and recipes. It was no surprise that he had the team (Pat Hanning and his daughter Jennifer, Donna Stack, Donna C., Marie and Susan) humming along and created a magnificent meal that everyone raved over!
The Long Island Way had its first golf outing on October 16 at The Towers in Floral Park.The weather was spectacular and everyone enjoyed playing 9 holes of golf on this private course.Beginners, novices and experts played together in the spirit of The Long Island Way….to build relationships.Some balls were flying all over…..and there were lots of laughs and good times.
After the outing, our golfers and other guests enjoyed a workshop given by Joe Nunziata on spiritual selling.Joe is a renowned speaker whose message is “success is based on our unconscious feelings and beliefs.”This created a very spirited discussion amongst everyone. Mickey B, The Prince of Rock and Roll, was our master of ceremonies who helped keep the evening lively with his good humor and ability to get everyone involved.Our sponsors all had the opportunity to be on WGBB 1240 AM, which was great fun for everyone.
Whenever The Long Island Way members and guests gather something special always happens……new relationships are formed, existing relationships are fostered……..and everyone came away asking “When are we doing this again?”
On behalf of the Board of Homecoming, Sophia Garden and Sophia Learning Center, THANK YOU for your help and support at Sophia Garden in taking down the tomato vines and in planting the garlic. The day was AMAZING....and it was all because of the generous hearts and spirits of the members of the LIWay and their fearless leaders! All of you were just wonderful...I still cannot believe how much was accomplished...I had hoped we would get the garlic finished. To have removed the last of the tomatoes, taken down the vines and the stakes AND planted ALL of the garlic was so much more than I could have hoped for. You and the LIWay team were fantastic!
