Assemblyman David G. McDonough (R,C-North Merrick) has available copies of the "2005 Long Island Travel Guide," a publication from the Long Island Convention & Visitors Bureau that features a sampling of Long Island’s scenic tourist attractions such as the Hamptons, Montauk, the North and South shores, the North Fork, the Pine Barrens, wineries, amusement parks, performing arts and golf.

The guide includes maps of Long Island and the MTA Long Island Rail Road system.

"With summer approaching, this guide will come in handy for residents and visitors who are interested in vacationing, or just taking day trips, and enjoying warm-weather activities," said Assemblyman McDonough.
