"OH, DEM BROOKLYN DAYS!"

This celebration of former Brooklynites is open to everyone with Brooklyn in their blood! When was the last time you had an egg cream made with Fox’s U-Bet chocolate syrup, milk, and seltzer delivered by the seltzer man? Do you remember savoring a Charlotte Russe?

How about turning back the hands of time and taking a walk down memory lane? You will have the time of your life reminiscing about the good ol’ days when life was uncomplicated while you were growing up back in Brooklyn!

Listen or sing along with the doo-wop music of “The Expressions” and test your memory with stories, pictures, and a trivia quiz led by Ron Schweiger, the official Brooklyn Borough Historian, while munching on a hot potato knish and washing it down with a real egg cream. Relive the old days while enjoying a bialy or bagel and a schmear, and much more! You will surely find people from your old neighborhood, and you may bump into Miss Brooklyn 1991. Maybe you’ll have a chance to buy the Brooklyn Bridge!
