Free Film at Library; School Schedule Online

Here are the big events in and around Farmingdale today: Tuesday Aug. 27, 2013.

1. The Farmingdale Public Library offers its free matinee Tuesday. "Slightly Dangerous," (1943)  starring Lana Turner and Robert Young. The film starts at 2 p.m.

2. Late Monday we wrote about a Wyandanch man who survived after he was struck by a freight train by the Hicksville station. Read it here.

3. Farmingdale Schools won't open until Monday open until Monday Sept. 9 because Labor Day week also coincides with Rosh Hashanah on Thursday and Friday. You can see the school-year schedule here.

4. If your civic group, church or synagogue is planning a public event, there's no easier way to get the word out on our "Boards." Click here for the free exposure.

5. Today's weather: Mostly cloudy, chance of thunderstorms.
