RE: I was on the rifle team...Alec Baldwins father was the coach.
I gather you are a fellow Long Islander...
Does the rifle team still exist today?
We lived down by the water and there were two fibgers out into the bay that were still undeveloped. They were pretty large parcels of mixed sand dunes, briar patches, woodland and brackish swamp...great places for a bunch of kids to spend all day and never see an adult. When I hit my teens we hunted geese down at the end. It was not at all unusual to see three or four guys walking through the neighborhood with 12 gauges over their shoulders. That sight today would bring DHS SWAT teams.
Both peninsulae were developed in the seventies (hi-end houses). They were all severely damaged by Sandy.
