Thing to do in June on Long Island

We continue to dry out in June, with an average of 3.59 inches of rain. The average temperature in June on Long Island is 66 degrees.
Pick Strawberries: June is strawberry season on Long Island. Many Long Island farms invite you to pick your own strawberries. Do you really love strawberries? Attend a strawberry festival and celebrate this yummy berry.
Get Married: Well, do it only for the right reasons of course, not just because June is the most popular wedding month. If you are planning to get married this month, make sure you get your marriage license at least 24 hours before your wedding ceremony. FirmJackanthony.com Both applicants (doesn't that sound romantic) must appear in person at any town or city clerk in New York State.
Visit Atlantis Marine World: June is Aquarium Month. Celebrate with a trip to Atlantis Marine World in Riverhead, Long Island. See the sea lion show, learn about sharks, touch sting rays, sea stars, and horseshoe crabs.
Honor Your Dad: We celebrate Father's Day on the third Sunday of June. About.com's Fatherhood Guide, Wayne Parker, has all the resources and information you need.
Get Grilling: I love grilling and at the end of each Summer I vow that the cooler weather won't mean the end of grilling season for my family. However, the thought of standing outside turning over pieces of chicken on a freezing day is so unappealing that the grill doesn't get turned on again until Spring. Get tips and recipes from About.com's Barbecue Guide, Derrick Riches.
Adopt a Cat : June is National Adopt-a-Cat Month. Many animal shelters on Long Island have cats that need homes. Never had a cat before? About.com's Cats Guide, Franny Syufy, has answers to all your questions.
Make Your Pool Safe: Many Long Islanders have swimming pools. Unfortunately pools and kids can sometimes be a dangerous combination. That is why it's so important to make your pool as safe as can be. About.com's Pediatrics Guide, Vincent Iannelli, M.D., provides pool safety tips for parents.
