Distance from Sachem community:Â 46 minutes, 35 miles
Key attractions:Â We're thinking New York Islanders for this day trip. If it's a night game, grab lunch in Nassau County and head over just before warmups around 6:15 p.m. Or, you can catch a weekend afternoon game and have dinner afterwards. The organization offers many deals for tickets, so if you figure out a correct method of payment that works for you, it could work for the whole family.
