The number 15 is significant for this group of friends for two reasons: it is their entry number in the Town of Huntington’s Sand Castle Contest and the amount of minutes they had to complete their sandcastle. Called “Mickey Mouse,” Charolette (7), Justin (13), Sarah (8), Adam (4), Emily G. (10), Emily C. (8, front left) and Thomas (10, front right) won for the most creative sandcastle on July 21 at Crab Meadow Beach in Northport. Photo by Rebecca Anzel.
