Daniel J. Panico Town Superviso | Town of Brookhaven

The Brookhaven Animal Shelter and Adoption Center is organizing its annual "Howl-o-ween Doggie Costume Parade" on Saturday, October 27, from 12:00 pm to 3:00 pm. Children attending the event are encouraged to wear costumes and participate in "Trick or Treating," with opportunities for photos alongside the "costumed canines."

Among the featured dogs will be a Husky dressed as a Frog Princess, a Bulldog styled as a Banana Split, and a Yorkie adorned as a Pumpkin. These adoptable pets are expected to captivate attendees with their charming outfits.

In conjunction with the parade, the shelter is hosting a "Barktoberfest" celebration, offering free adoptions from October 27 to October 31. The adoption package includes neutering or spaying, vaccinations, microchipping, licensing, FIV/FELV testing, flea treatment, and fecal examination.

The Brookhaven Town Animal Shelter and Adoption Center is situated at 300 Horseblock Road in Brookhaven. It operates Monday through Friday from 10:00 am to 4:30 pm and on weekends from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm. For additional details about the event or adoption process, interested parties can contact the shelter at 631-451-6950 or visit the Town website.

Don't Expect Bregman to Pay Off

This week, one of the bigger names in the free agency cycle signed with the Chicago Cubs, and fantasy managers everywhere sighed. Usually, anyone heading to Wrigley Field is viewed as a positive, but for Alex Bregman, more information has emerged suggesting this move could spell trouble for his fantasy outlook. Bregman is a right-handed pull hitter who previously played in two of the more favorable home parks for that profile in Houston and Boston. Both parks feature short left-field dimensions that reward pulled fly balls and help inflate power numbers.

Futures Bettors Will Be Smiling

The College Football Championship is set, and it pits two of the more unlikely teams against each other. Indiana may have the largest living alumni base in the country, with more than 800,000 graduates, but few expected the Hoosiers to reach this stage. They feature zero five-star recruits and have instead relied on depth, discipline, and consistency while dominating all season long.
