New Pickleball Courts Coming Soon To Town Of Oyster Bay Parks

Pickleball Courts To Open In Bayville, Farmingdale, Massapequa, Plainview, Woodbury Dline Example

Oyster Bay Town

Supervisor Joseph

Saladino and Councilman

Steve Labriola announce that new Pickleball Courts are coming soon to parks throughout the Town of Oyster Bay. Due to popular demand, the Town is constructing new Pickleball Courts at John Burns Park in Massapequa, Field of Dreams and Anchor Park in Massapequa, Allen Park in Farmingdale, SyossetWoodbury Community Park, Plainview-Old Bethpage Community Park, and Centre Island Beach in Bayville. Courts are anticipated to open to the public in September 2023.

“Pickleball is a fun

sport for all ages that combines elements of tennis, badminton, and ping pong. It’s become incredibly popular in our Town, with seniors and families playing daily at our existing courts in Massapequa and Bethpage,” said Supervisor Saladino.

“Due to this popular demand, I’m proud to announce that the Town of Oyster Bay is building new Pickleball courts for all residents to enjoy.”

ickleball is played with a wooden paddle and lightweight plastic ball and can include two, three, or four players.

The dimensions and layout closely resemble a badminton court,

which is considerably smaller than a tennis court. Rules of the game are somewhat similar to tennis. These new Pickleball courts come in addition to existing Town courts located at H. Garrick Williams Park in Massapequa and behind the Bethpage Library in Bethpage.

“Pickleball is a very fun, social and healthy activity for the whole family and these new courts will be a welcome addition to the community. So, grab your sneakers and paddle, and get ready to play one of the world’s fastest growing sports at a new court near you!” added Councilman Labriola.

Councilwoman Vicki Walsh announced that the Toddler Sports Program returns this spring on April 18th. This 6-week program offers sports classes at the Hicksville Athletic Center for children ages 3 and 4.

“The Town’s Toddler Sports Program is a fantastic way to teach your toddler the fundamentals of sports in a fun and social environment,” said Councilwoman Walsh. “This program is sure to be a hit with children and parents alike, as youngsters are given the opportunity to learn the basics of various different sports such as tee-ball, flag football and more along with children their own age.”

Residents who sign their toddler up for the program must choose one class per week, per child.

Classes will take place on: Tuesdays at 1pm or 2pm at the Hicksville Athletic Center; and Thursdays at 1pm or 2pm at the Hicksville Athletic Center.

Online registration is now available at www. oysterbaytown.com/ parksportal. Space is limited- first come, first serve. Registration will close when the program reaches full capacity.

Each class is approximately 50 minutes. The cost of the program is $75 per child who is a Town resident,

and $90 per child whose care giver is a Town resident but not the child. The child’s birth certificate and a tax or utility bill will be required to validate age and proof of residency. A guardian must be present during the class. The child MUST be 3 years old by the start of the program.

The Toddler Sports Program is run by the Town’s Parks Department, Recreation Division. For further information, please call (516) 7977945.

The Charity of the Month for April is Rebuilding Together Long Island

www.rebuildingtogether.org

Free Musical Performances At Local Libraries For

Rebuilding Together

Long Island (RTLI) is a nonprofit organization, headquartered in Farmingdale, serving Nassau County and most of Su olk County. As an a liate of the national organization, Rebuilding Together, their mission is repairing homes, revitalizing communities and rebuilding lives.

To accomplish their vision of safe and healthy homes for everyone, they provide free essential home safety repairs and modifications for economicallydisadvantaged homeowners, whether they are older adults, veterans, families or persons with a disability or limited mobility.

Although RTLI’s teams work year round, April is a particularly important month because it is National Rebuilding Month. “Too many Americans su er from the health and economic consequences of living in substandard housing and under served communities,” said Caroline Blakely, President & CEO of Rebuilding Together. “National Rebuilding Month serves as an annual month-long call to service to encourage people to support their neighbors, strengthen their community and ensure everyone is living in safe and healthy homes.”

RTLI together with its 120 sister a liates will all look to surpass last year’s accomplishment of working with over 13,000 volunteers to repair close to 800 homes and over 150 community centers nationwide. As you drive around Long Island, watch for RTLI’s lawn signs. If you see one, you will know their volunteers are hard at work helping someone who needs a helping hand.

Once accepted into the program, each home receives a safety check of every room. Each home has its own challenges. RTLI also listens to the homeowner to determine their priorities. Hazards and unsafe conditions are noted and given to the volunteer crews so they can prepare a materials list and then

get to work. Minor plumbing and electrical repairs may be made, but they may also do weatherization, flooring (if the current floor is a hazard), sheet rock repair and a myriad of other repairs. If someone has limited mobility, a wheelchair ramp may be constructed, grab bars and railings installed, doorways widened where possible to accommodate a wheelchair. Conversions of bathtubs to walk-in showers can also be done and under certain circumstances, a stair glide may be installed. While RTLI cannot always take care of every issue in the home, they will tell you that every home they work on is left safer than is was and the lives of its residents are improved when the project is complete! So how can you help?

•If you know someone who may benefit from their services, have them call the RTLI o ce at 631.777.7894, Monday – Friday, to see if they qualify for the free program.

•Join the RTLI team! Volunteers can sign up at rebuildingtogetherli.org/ volunteer-today. Currently they are looking for individuals who are fluent in Spanish and for an o ce person, particularly if they are familiar with Salesforce. Additionally, if you are handy with tools, the Nassau and Su olk crew teams are always looking for more help.

•Donate at rebuildingtogetherli. org. RTLI relies on the donations of our neighbors, some grants and corporate sponsorships, as they do not receive any government funding.

•RTLI encourages local business to get involved and sponsor a project. The organization can find the right project for your business to sponsor and you can then promote your generosity on social media to show your commitment to improving the health and safety of someone in need locally.

When we work together, we can bring about transformational change quickly in our communities. Stay tuned for next week’s article to learn more.

If your non-profit would like to be featured in this column,please email noellelambert@longislandmediagroup.com for consideration.

Massapequa Student, Battling Cancer, To Get Her Dream Prom

Since being diagnosed with cancer at the beginning of her senior year, Massapequa High School student Arianna Surrow has maintained a positive outlook. On April 3, she was all smiles again when she was surprised with a free prom makeover, courtesy of the My Fairy Godfathers Foundation.

Arianna was called into Principal Barbara Lowell’s office, where she and her mother learned of the good news. She met with the organization’s co-founders Andrew Ashton, who attended via videoconference, and Steven Anderson, who was there in person. Mr. Anderson is a Massapequa native and Berner High School graduate.

The Florida-based My Fairy Godfathers will pick up all of Arianna’s prom costs, including the tickets, transportation, flowers, dress, shoes, makeup, nails and a custom-cut wig. She

is the third Massapequa student to receive the “gift of beauty” from the foundation, and the second to be given the prom experience.

It was Sept. 14, 2022, when Arianna found out she had Hodgkin’s Lymphoma, a cancer of the lymph tissue. She went through eight rounds of chemotherapy, which she finished in December.

Despite a serious health obstacle, Arianna has made the most of her senior year. She was named to highlyselective All-State and AllEastern vocal ensembles, starred as Vi Moore in the recent musical production of “Footloose” and served as president of both the Tri-M Music Honor Society and the Model U.N. She is also the founder the school’s Environmental Club and is active in the science research program.

Arianna also hasn’t let her illness get in the way of the college selection process,

continuing with her applications and campus visits. She is narrowing down her choices, and plans to be a dual vocal music and pre-medicine major in college.

“It was very surprising,” Arianna said of receiving the prom makeover. “It’s going to be very rewarding. It’s really a nice ending to my senior year to have this.”

Mr. Anderson said that Arianna will be “Cinderella for a night” when she attends her senior prom in mid-June.

“We give her everything she needs to make the night perfect,” he said.

His sister, Teresa Colgan, is an English teacher at Massapequa High School and reached out to the administration and faculty, seeking nominations. Guidance counselor Allison Fifield suggested Arianna, and was thrilled to see her student chosen for the prom makeover.

“She’s been through

such a challenging time,” Ms. Fifield said. “Arianna is a remarkable student and

person. As we look forward to her recovery and her bright future, this will be

an amazing way to make her prom night all the more special.”

East Lake Students Show Their Colors With Food Drive

Tasked with coming up with a community service project, student council members at East Lake Elementary School went with a simple but impactful idea – a food drive.

The student leaders generated enthusiasm for their St. Patrick’s Day Rainbow Food Drive with three spirit days. All East Lake students were encouraged to donate nonperishable food while dressing up like leprechauns on March 15 and a pot of gold on March 16 and wearing green on

St. Patrick’s Day.

Students and staff donated enough food to fill two large bins. The items were then sorted, packed in boxes and brough to YES Community Counseling Center in Massapequa, which operates a food pantry.

“We wanted to do something that everyone could contribute to,” student council member Joey Flynn said.

Hunter Kennedy added that collection drives at East Lake, whether for food, clothing or toys, always

Massapequa Coast Little League Opening Day Celebrations

have a high participation rate. The success of those past fundraisers gave them hope going into this most recent food drive, and they weren’t disappointed.

Student council adviser Brett Hoehn said that the idea for the food drive and spirit days came from the students, who then worked hard to make it a reality. Fifth graders Nicole Durso, Mia Piatti and Lily Ippolito spearheaded the collection, with support from their fellow student leaders who helped promote it.

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino, Councilwoman Laura Maier, and Nassau County Legislator James Kennedy joined the Massapequa Coast Little League for Opening Day on Sunday, April 2. The

day’s festivities included an Opening Day Parade and celebration of the League’s 2022 success as the 11-Year Old Tournament Team was named New York State Champions. Supervisor Saladino wished the

league another season of great baseball, teamwork and sportsmanship and thanked parents and coaches for their continued investment in youth athletics.

Free Oyster Bay Harbor Cleanup & Marine Education Expo

THREE-DAY RAINBOW FOOD DRIVE

mark St. Patrick’s Day, the student council at East

Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Councilwoman Laura Maier invite residents to participate in an Oyster Bay Harbor Cleanup and Marine Education Expo, scheduled for Saturday, April 15th (rain date April 16th) at Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park in Oyster Bay. Co-sponsored by the Friends of the Bay, the day offers volunteers – individuals, families, companies and organizations – an opportunity to give back to the environment by removing litter from the shoreline and below. The Marine Education Expo features environmentalists and marine educators offering information on local wildlife, including encounters with some animal ambassadors, interesting ecosystem restoration projects, solutions to help tackle marine pollution, a marine vessel restoration project and boat yard tour, and

family fun activities. $20,000 grant applications will be available to homeowners and small businesses looking to upgrade their septic system to new clean water systems.

“This is a great opportunity to roll up your sleeves, giveback to Mother Earth, and have fun while learning more about our local marine life and environment,” said Supervisor Saladino. “ This year’s cleanup also features an underwater dive to the harbor’s bottom! A group of local divers will enhance our debris collection efforts by removing trash that has already traveled into the water.”

Volunteers are invited to participate in the cleanup, which will run from 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. The central meeting place will be Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park launching ramps and waterfront gazebo off of Larrabee Avenue in Oyster Bay. Additional locations for

the clean-up include Stehli Beach in Bayville and Centre Island Beach in Bayville. Certificates are available upon request for students seeking to fulfill volunteer requirements. Typically, in year’s past, harbor and beach clean-up events have resulted in 40,000lbs of debris being collected by volunteers and town workers.

Councilwoman Maier stated, “From wildlife encounters to boat restoration and fun activities, this Harbor Cleanup and Marine Education Expo offers a great and free day out for the family. I hope to see you at the Oyster Bay Harbor Cleanup & Marine Education Expo on April 15th.”

Individuals and groups who are interested in registering for this environmental cleanup should visit www.oysterbaytown. com/volunteerform or call the Department of Environmental Resources at (516) 677-5943.

Studious Scientists Share Knowledge At Discovery Fair

With lots of questions about the world around them, students from the Massapequa School District went on a quest for answers. They shared their newfound knowledge at the annual Science Discovery Fair on March 18 at Berner Middle School.

The science competition was open to students in

grades K-8. There were more than 100 projects by about 170 young scientists, as they could work independently or in a group. Students created posterboard displays with information about their experiments and their findings.

Each participant received a visit from three

judges, which included teachers and students from Massapequa High School’s science research program.

At the end of each session – grades K-4 and 5-8 –students and their parents gathered in the auditorium for an awards presentation.

Katie Fernandez, the district’s elementary director of STEM, said the

objective for students was simple – come up with a science experiment and learn something new. There was a big variety of topics

covering just about every science discipline, including Earth science, biology, chemistry and physics.

“It was nice to see how

many young scientists we have here in Massapequa,” she said. “Their innovation and creativity was inspiring.”
