Farmingdale students take the reading challenge

Oyster Bay Town Councilman Anthony D. Macagnone kept his promise to third, fourth and fifth graders at Saltzman East Memorial School in Farmingdale when he returned to the school with an ice cream reward. Several weeks prior, the Councilman asked the students to participate in Councilman Mac's Reading Challenge, where

he asks the students to read a certain number of books and write a paragraph on each book. If they completed the task, the Councilman promised to return with a reward. Councilman Macagnone also compared seeing a movie to reading a book with the students and discussed how much more enjoyable it is to read a book.
