The Village of Amityville’s second annual community garage sale returns on Saturday, September 13th, 2025 from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Residents looking to clean out can also clean up, and make a few extra dollars. This garage sale will not count toward the annual Village limit of two sales per household a year, and the garage sale permit fee will be waived. Last year, nearly 100 homes signed up to participate, making Amityville a browser and shopper paradise. Shoppers can find treasures such as clothing, decorative and craft items, books, novelties, as well as tools, sports, cooking and boating equipment, furniture and other household merchandise.
“This event attracts more visitors to the Village than a single sale would. We’re excited to support our residents and hopefully also generate additional traffic to our retail shops, restaurants and many services in the
Village,” said Amityville Village Mayor Michael O’Neill. A list of participating homes and a sale finder map will be provided on the Village’s website starting in August, and at Village Hall during the week prior to the event (21 Ireland Pl., Amityville, NY). Visit Amityville.com for updates and information. In the event of rain, the sale will take place on Sunday, September 14th.
The garage sale extends from neighborhoods south of Sunrise Highway to the Great South Bay, and from County Line Road on the western boundary to the areas off Bayview/South Bayview Avenue to the east. The Village reminds shoppers to drive safely and adhere to all traffic rules and parking signs, especially in the residential neighborhoods. To sign up for the sale, Village residents may contact Amityville Village Hall at 631264-6000, or email Mayor@ amityville.com using the subject: Garage Sale.
The Amityville Farmers Market has returned to its bucolic setting on the lawn next to First United Methodist Church. Located at 25 Broadway (aka Route 110), the lawn provides room for shoppers to stroll around while patronizing the vendors at the Market.
The Market operates on Saturdays from 9 AM – 1 PM through October 25th. Check both the Amityville Farmers Market Facebook and Instagram pages (@amityvillevillage farmersmarket) or the Bay Village Civic Association Facebook page (@ bayvillagecivicassociation) for any updates (weather related or other concerns).
Our amazing farmer (Dobler Farms) is joined by Horman’s Pickles, Baked at Home (Simply Delicious treats), Sal & Jerry’s Breads, Queen Ann Ravioli, and more enticing food and beverage vendors,
including Montauk Smoked Fish, AfroGato Coffee, and Jessy’s Empanadas on various dates.
Wonderful craft vendors join them, some on alternating weeks. Stop in to see who is there weekly. You will definitely be pleased!
The Amityville Farmers Market is sponsored by the Bay Village Civic Association in conjunction with FUMC. Parking is available on the street as well as in the municipal parking lot across Broadway.
The Bay Village Civic Association represents the residents of the Village of Amityville. It has conducted a market in the village for fifteen years and thanks the shoppers for their support.
The BVCA offers “Amityville on the Bay” merchandise to purchase
for adults and children. Funds raised are utilized for scholarships, local projects, and the support of other community needs. Also, we have partnered with the Long Island Coalition for the Homeless to help restock their pantry on August 16th, September 20th, and October 11th. Please bring toiletry, nonperishable grocery items, or household cleaning goods on these dates. Your efforts and generosity are appreciated.
For more information or to become a vendor, please contact the farmers market manager at amityfarmersmarket@ gmail.com. You may also contact the Bay Village Civic Association at bayvillagecivic@aol.com for more details.

The Alzheimer’s Foundation of America (AFA) recently cut the ribbon on its new AFA Barbara Rabinowitz Education & Resource Center, located at 149 Schleigel Boulevard in Amityville. Over 200 people attended the ceremonial grand opening of the Center, which provides free community programming to Long Island families affected by Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia-related illnesses, free memory screenings to Long Islanders, and more.
The 11,500 square foot, state-of-the-art center — the first of its kind on Long Island — is readily accessible to residents of Suffolk and Nassau Counties. The center offers free daily programming to Long Island families affected by Alzheimer’s disease and other dementia-related illnesses. Community programs include music; creative arts; movement and motion; and brain games. Each of these provides participants with valuable cognitive stimulation, activity, and social interaction, all of which benefit brain health. It also provides family caregivers with essential respite care, enabling
them to drop their loved ones off for programming so that they can have time to care for themselves.
The center also offers free, confidential memory screenings to Long Islanders of all ages, with no minimum age or insurance prerequisites.
The Center is named after Barbara Rabinowitz, a loving daughter, wife, mother, and grandmother whose legacy of love, strength, and selfless dedication to others impacted many people’s lives. Barbara lived with dementia for six years. Members of her family help cut the ribbon on the Center which now bears her name.
Michael Rabinowitz, Barbara’s son, said “Our hope is that this center gives other families a better understanding of what their loved ones are going through—and makes life just a little bit easier.”
“We’re opening more than just a building— we’re opening a door to hope, support, and understanding for the more than 60,000 Long Island families navigating the challenges of Alzheimer’s disease,” said Charles J. Fuschillo, Jr., AFA’s President and CEO.
“This new Center will provide essential services and support to Long Island families, and we’re grateful to everyone who helped make it possible.”
Dignitaries attending the event included Babylon Town Clerk Gerry Compitello; Babylon Town Deputy Supervisor Tony Martinez; State Senator Monica Martinez; State Assemblymember Kwani O’Pharrow; State Assemblymember Michael Durso; State Assemblymember Steve Stern; Suffolk County Legislator Jason Richberg; Islip Town Supervisor Angie Carpenter; Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino; and Hempstead Town Councilman Tom Muscarella.
Representatives from the Offices of Congressman Andrew Garbarino; Suffolk County Executive Ed Romaine; Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman, and Empire State Development were also in attendance.

Suffolk Legislator Tom Donnelly (D-Deer Park) is pleased to inform Babylon and Huntington residents about the local Suffolk County Office for the Aging Summer 2025 Senior Advocate Schedule.

us to provide our senior citizens with the assistance and information they need in ways that are most convenient to them. These visits allow our seniors to connect with our County’s senior advocates right in their own communities,” said Legislator Donnelly.

Long Islanders can get free, confidential memory screenings this summer at the Alzheimer’s Foundation of America’s (AFA) Barbara Rabinowitz Education and Resource Center, located at 149 Schleigel Blvd, in Amityville. Screenings will take place each Wednesday afternoon and are open to everyone, with no minimum age or
insurance prerequisites. Appointments can be scheduled by calling 631223-4000.
Memory screenings are quick (approximately 1015 minutes), noninvasive, and consist of a series of questions to gauge memory, language, thinking skills and other cognitive functions. They are similar to other routine health screenings,
such as those for blood pressure, cholesterol, and skin checks. Screenings are administered one on one by a qualified professional, and results are confidential and provided immediately at the end of the screening. Results are not a diagnosis, but a memory screening can suggest if someone should see a physician for a full evaluation.
Early detection of memory impairments is vital. Many different conditions can cause memory issues, including treatable or curable conditions such as vitamin deficiencies, thyroid disorders, urinary tract infections, sleep apnea, stress, anxiety, and depression. Even in the case of a dementia-related illness
such as Alzheimer’s, early detection can provide greater opportunity to begin treatments when they are most effective, as well as taking part in a clinical trial. In addition, it affords the person the chance to take advantage of community services, such as support groups and therapeutic programming, which can help maximize quality of life, as well
as have a greater say in making legal, financial, and health care decisions. Residents wishing to get a free memory screening at AFA’s Barbara Rabinowitz Education & Resource Center this summer can call the Center at 631223-4000 to schedule an appointment.
