5 Things to Know Friday in Point Boro, Point Beach

Lego building, fishing, a high school reunion and a bone marrow drive to save a local teen's life are all coming up.

AT 10:30 a.m. Friday (today), children ages 2 to 5 are welcome to have fun building with the Point Borough library's collection of LEGO DUPLO blocs. "It will be a great time to play and explore together," says the Event listing. Please register by calling 732-295-1555. The library is on Beaver Dam Road.

There will be a fishing tournament starting 7 a.m. Saturday at Alex's Inlet Bait and Tackle, 9 Inlet Dr., Point Beach. The biggest fish wins it all. Length wins it. NOT weight. You can only fish from the wall and the rocks. NO beach and NO boats. No Gaffing. Only net or pull over wall and rocks.

All ages are Welcome. $20 entry fee. A percentage will go to the bait shop. For more information, see the Patch Event listing or contact Mike Cammarata by email: Northeastanglers@gmail.com
