The traditional East Rockaway Huckleberry Frolic continued for the 53rd time June 10 with much fanfare.

The event raises money for the Grist Mill Museum, which was built in 1688 and is a symbol of East Rockaway’s traditional roots.

The Grist Mill Committee launched the first Huckleberry Frolic in 1969 to raise money for repairs and maintenance of the museum and bring the community together. Because of the success, the event has continued since beside a two-year hiatus because of the pandemic.
