Jennifer Lane resident Jonathan Bergman, 4, chows down on a delicious treat—a scoop of vanilla from Bona Bona Ice Cream—during the Food Truck Event at Pine Ridge Park on Saturday, July 30.

A bean bag connects with 8-year-old Eli Hazan’s eager, open hands. But someone might want to tell the Brush Hollow Lane resident that cornhole doesn’t usually involve catching the sack.
Blind Brook High School rising senior Thomas Wemm stretches out his hands, ready to catch the fly ball that will spell an out against speedy Fabio Garcia, who has already blasted past him to first base.
Up to bat for his team, 6-year-old Harrison Feldberg’s eyes are on the soaring whiffle ball flying right at him. Does the Edgewood Drive resident have what it takes to hit a home run?
