Mamaroneck Avenue

Sonenclar mentioned Mamaroneck Avenue as a frequent hangout spot with friends and family. "A lot of time is spent right around here and it's where a lot of my memories are," she said at the post-parade celebration at Molly Spillane's. "It's a cool area."

It's Quaint

"It kind of feels like a little cute village," she said.

Intimate Bonds

The tight-knit community and relationships are important to her as well. "You can know everybody," Sonenclar said. "It's because it's so small that we can do something like this and show so much support for one person."

Rye Neck

She said the school system and the friends she has made there are definitely big positives to growing up in Mamaroneck.

City Girl

Though she enjoys the benefits of a small place, Sonenclar said, "We're so close to New York. It's the suburbs, but the city is right there. I love that!"
