Rosalyn Mason, 51, had come to Far Rockaway when she was nine years old and has lived there for the majority of her life. She remembers her childhood in her community, recalling some of her fondest recollections of the boardwalk along the ocean, as well as Playland, which she describes as a built-in carnival for summer, spring and fall.
