Billy Minicozzi Knows Oyster Bay
Billy Minicozzi called to identify the Aug. 30 mystery picture in the Enterprise Pilot. He said, “It’s people playing volleyball at Theodore Roosevelt Park.” That is correct.
The newspaper had an early deadline because of the Monday holiday, so he was the lone caller, and always a welcome voice to hear. If you remember, there was extensive coverage of beach volleyball during the Olympics, but at TR Park you don’t have to wear a bikini. It’s a ‘dress as you come’ event.
It was great to spot the young people playing volleyball — the picture was taken the day of the Oyster Festival kickoff event at the waterfront.
Speaking of the festival, get your appetite up for oysters and clams. Beverly Zembko is finalizing the menu for the Tom Reardon Memorial Food Court. We can’t wait to see what will be offered this year.
Last year we just loved the Po’ Boy sandwiches: fried oysters in a tasty roll. We went back for seconds.
