Immediately following the Pride in Port parade on Saturday, Sept. 28, Campus Drive will host a Homecoming Football Game on the turf field and Family Fun Day inside and surrounding the track.
A new Food Court Village featuring food trucks and booths will be located in the parking lot between Weber and the track from 12:00 – 6:00 p.m. The delicious choices include B Bistro to Go Vietnamese, Bosphorus, Dom’s Chicken, No Good Burger Joint, Rosie’s Grilled Cheese, Smusht, Twisty Pretzel, Yummy Gyro and more.
Starting at 12:30 p.m., Family Fun Day’s traditional rides and activities will be expanded from previous years. Rides are free, but some activities charge a nominal fee.
For senior citizens, there is a free luncheon in the Schreiber cafeteria, which is accompanied by music provided by Bach to Rock, followed by a free bingo game with great prizes. Call 883-6656 to reserve a space (reservations required) and inquire about a free Town of North Hempstead bus.
Schreiber’s homecoming football game starts at 2:00 p.m. versus Westbury High School.
Also new this year, the Pride in Port committee has organized a cornhole tournament and square dancing.
Starting at 3:15 p.m., the cornhole tournament will take place on the field between Schreiber and Weber, challenging teams of children or adults and children to play for their elementary school, middle school house, or high school team/club activity. Each game is $10 per team. The winning elementary school, middle school house and high school club/team will win five cornhole sets.
At 4:15 p.m., after the cornhole tournament has ended, the field will be the site of free line dancing and square dancing. Everyone can participate regardless of age. Come with a partner or by yourself and get matched up.
