     It was a wonderful day.  The weather was just what a fall day should be, cool and clear.   More that 1100 Long Islanders came to enjoy the Festival.  The children played traditional games, tried old-time crafts and danced to the tunes of traditional music.  Hundreds of adults and children went through the Spooky "Boo" Barn, and many more could not bring themselves to enter.
Of course the highlight of the day for most of the people was the scarecrow making.  Children and adults alike created their ideal scarecrows.  Play the video below to see what it was like.
