Read About Vocalist Tom Smith's Performance at the Library and a New Class Offered at the National Art League

Good morning, Douglaston.

It's going to be another warm day in the neighborhood with temperatures expected in the low 80s, according to today's weather report.

Today, be sure to read our story about a performance by entertainer Tom Smith at the Douglaston-Little Neck Library. 

Also, check out our story this afternoon on a new still life class being offered by the National Art League.

Here are 5 Things You Need to Know Today:

1. Take a look at our stories on the concert at the library and read our piece on the National Art League's class.

2. Drop by the site at 10 a.m. this morning for Get Out: Weekend Planner and, at noon, for House Hunt.

3. Vice President Joe Biden says one of his first targets for federal spending is a website dedicated to the desert tortoise. We'd love to hear from Douglaston residents. What areas do you believe should be targeted for cuts? 

4. Auditions for "Annie Get Your Gun" will be held again today at 7:30 p.m. at the Bay Terrace Jewish Center. The production is by Theatre on the Bay.

The local, fresh fruit and vegetable market was a worthwhile addition to Douglaston. Obviously, itRead More did not receive the support of the community, at least not enough to make it a successful venture. This is sad. Every Sunday, rain or shine, I would stop at the market and purchase something. My favorite was the bakery stand. Often, when I stopped in the afternoon I would get two FREE French breads with my purchase. Parking was never a problem. The vendors where friendly and very informative. It was a perfect setting for the picturesque nature of this community. Too bad it is not returning.

Unfortunately, according to the Douglas Manor Association, the fresh fruit and vegetable market willRead More NOT return this year. No specific reason was given other than this was at the initiative of the merchants or the market's organizers. And this..., just as we were beginning to enjoy the Long Island wines and the $34 per pound skirt steak, ordered two months in advance.
