On July 21, 2016, more than 30 members of the APA NY Metro Chapter participated in a LI Section-sponsored tour of the Plum Island Animal Disease Center, located roughly 1.5 miles east of Orient Point.  The group left sunny Orient Point  via ferry and arrived on Plum Island for a morning of presentation and Q&A with representatives from the US Department of Homeland Security (DHS).  The afternoon was spent touring the entire island with our guides from DHS.  A great day was had by all!  Check out some photos from the tour –
