The annual West Hempstead Street Fair showcased the very best of the community Sunday as families, local businesses and volunteer groups came out in droves to enjoy food, fun and perfect fall weather.
The fair featured a diverse selection of food trucks and vendors selling everything from pocketbooks and pillows, soaps and scarves, to toys and dish towels. Families enjoyed a magic show, free Zumba classes, live music, a petting zoo, inflatables, and a train ride. The New York Equestrian Center also provided pony rides.
For the first time this year, the fair was moved from its original location on Nassau Boulevard to Hempstead Avenue, stretching from Giordano's Garden Shoppe to Fischetti Garden Center. The location change was no doubt a boon to businesses located on the stretch including Riesterer's Bakery, the Community Cafe, and 7-Eleven.
This year's fair sponsors included Long Island Judaica, Capital One Bank, Giordano Garden Services, Lady of America, Hot Stop Cruises, Popkin-Brogna Jujitsu Center, Community Cafe, Becky's Delicatessen, 7-Eleven, Rosenblatt, Levittan, Vulpis, Goetz & Co. and Edward Jones of West Hempstead.
