Sunnyside Gardens Park - Memorial Day

Memorial Day celebrations in the Sunnyside Gardens Park was a great success. Some firefighters from the local station came along for the annual tug-o-war against the children in the park, the FDNY put up a good fight but were no match for the combined efforts of the kids, better luck next year!
