Shelter Island’s Got Talent!
Shelter Island’s Got Talent returns on Friday, February 1, at 6 p.m. at Shelter Island School.
Do you know an Islander who can juggle? Pull a rabbit out of a hat? Do a back flip? Or rap “Ice Ice Baby?” Maybe you do and you don’t know it!
You’ll find out what your friends’ and neighbors’ secret talents are during Shelter Island’s Got Talent, a showcase hosted by the Shelter Island PTSA.
