April 27: Two Powerhouse Lacrosse Teams to Face Off

West Islip and Ward Melville are both nationally ranked.

A few weeks ago we recommended you as part of our "100 Things to Do in Three Village" series. Well, Wednesday is a perfect day to do it. But if it's really not your thing, you're not without options.

1. Get ready for a battle. The Ward Melville boys' lacrosse team will take on West Islip at home at 6:45 p.m. in what's expected to be a game with national significance. Ward Melville is the No. 1 team in the nation according to LaxPower's April 26 rankings; West Islip is No. 12. It's a must-see for lacrosse fans.

2. The book The Year of Magical Thinking by Joan Didion was hailed as a "lyrical, disciplined entry in the annals of mourning literature" by Publishers Weekly after its publication in 2007. The memoir will be the focus of a 7:30 p.m. at the Emma S. Clark Memorial Library.

3. URECA! We're guessing it's pronounced like "Eureka," because it's a celebration of the achievements of undergraduates at Stony Brook University in areas pertaining to research and creativity. It runs nearly all day long at the Student Activities Center starting at 10 a.m.

4. The PTA General Council for the Three Village school district will meet at 9:30 a.m. at the North Country Administration Center.
