Night On The Town
Jericho Terrace
Thursday, April 14, 2016


Night on the Town returned to Jericho Terrace Thursday, April 14 2016. This event allowed guests to sample the fare of more than 20 restaurants from Long Island and the city, as well as raised money for the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society.

    

The event has a personal significance for Tony Lubrano, who spearheaded the event with Harry Zapiti. When Lubrano's father was diagnosed with leukemia, he was given a year to live. They went to Sloan Kettering for a second opinion, and while they confirmed the diagnosis, the doctors shared they had new experimental medicine. The new medications stabilized Lubrano's dad, extending his life 15 years. "By the time he passed away, all eight of his grandchildren got to meet him," Lubrano said. "We felt that somebody came long before us and raised a lot of money for research that paid for those 15 years. We wanted to pay back that debt."

      

Several businesses, including Roslyn Savings Bank, Lalezarian Properties and Western Beef donated substantial sums, while others donated goods, such as bikes, jewelry and trips, for auctions and raffle prizes. Entertainment was provided by the New York's Most Dangerous Swing Band and Broadway singers as well as Chaminade High School's string quartet.
