Got a bucket list item that you’re about to cross off? Let us tag along.

We’re launching a video series next month in which we follow Long Islanders as they accomplish major lifetime goals. These are things you’re already planning to do -- and do them on Long Island.

Sky-diving and running your first marathon are obvious choices. But maybe you have some other challenge in mind. How about taking a trapeze lesson, competing in a food-eating contest, or even catching your first fish? It’s your dream, we’ll just be there to chronicle it for posterity, before you kick the bucket.
