Dear Neighbor, Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I dressed up as Captain James T. Kirk of the Starship Enterprise (for all you Star Trek fans out there). I joined our Yonkers Department of Parks, Recreation, and Conservation for the annual senior Halloween Hop. It didn't disappoint with all the unique costumes and great music! Just to remind you, don't forget to set your clocks back one hour on Sunday, November 3. And, if you haven't already, make sure you get out to the polls on November 5, Election Day, and make your voice heard. As Captain Kirk would say, "Live long and prosper." Have a great weekend, Yonkers! MIKE SPANO Mayor
