A letter from the publishers
Long Beach is coming back — better, smarter and stronger.
LONG BEACH
I
t’s hard for us to believe that this is our 25th annual edition of the Long Beach Guide. Time flies. We remember feeling a real sense of optimism in 1990 that the city had turned a corner. That it had put the troubles of recent years in the rear view mirror. Twenty-five years later, we’d characterize the mood in town as even more optimistic than it was back then. In the aftermath of Superstorm Sandy, which slammed into the barrier island nearly three years ago in October 2012, it was not unreasonable to wonder if Long Beach was still a viable place to live. But every element of the Long Beach community has come together to rebuild smarter, stronger and more resilient than ever. Sadly, a few of our neighbors are still not back in their storm-damaged homes, and we pray that by the time we pen our next publishers’ letter, they will all be back home. However, while much remains to be done, no one doubts that Long Beach is going to be a wonderful place to live, work and play for a long time to come.

• • • And now, after a seemingly endless winter, Memorial Day is here, marking the official start of the beach season and the unofficial start of summer. Those of us with sand in our shoes look forward to the respite of long, lazy summer days as we return to our beloved ocean and beach. Long Beach has much to offer in every season, but summer is its time to shine. A look through this year’s Guide reveals just how jampacked with activities this summer will be. As always, we have tried to make the Guide the most comprehensive source of information about Civitas Ad Mar, the City by the Sea, and the adjoining communities of East Atlantic Beach, Lido Beach and Point Lookout. The Long Beach Guide is a special publication of the Long Beach Herald, the hometown newspaper of the barrier isle. The Guide is published in cooperation with the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce, and we are honored to mark another year as the official publication of the chamber. We hope you find this issue of the Long Beach Guide useful and informative, and that you enjoy reading the Long Beach Herald 52 weeks a year. Have a great summer, and we’ll see you on the beach!

Greetings From r e b m a h C h c a e B g n o L e h T I
n 2014, we witnessed the City by the Sea’s return to the summer wonderland that it has been known to be for more than a century. While there is still work left to do — and new projects to start — last summer a united community worked together as a wonderful season was experienced by all visitors who used the most beautiful and glorious boardwalk on the Atlantic Coast. Now, the city is ready for locals and visitors alike to begin flocking to our beautiful seashore and boardwalk, and frequent our numerous eating establishments offering a wide variety of cuisines. The city has no shortage of wonderful hotels, merchants, boutiques and specialty shops offering something for everyone. Just imagine beautiful blue skies with billowy clouds above and softly crashing waves hitting the shores of Long Beach. The city is ready to offer a wonderful canvas of lazy and carefree days swimming, boating, or just plain relaxing with a good book on our beach. In October, the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce had its most successful Restaurant Week and its first annual Merchant’s Week that included many of our retail businesses. During the fall and winter seasons, the chamber partnered with the city to purchase holiday and seasonal lighting for the Park Avenue shopping district. This year, the chamber ran Shop Long Beach televisions ads as well as publishing its first annual Long Beach Shopping and Holiday Guide. Signs that a glorious summer are on the way are supported by the success of the chamber’s first annual Exotic Car Show, our April/May Restaurant Week and the chamber’s first of three street fairs. The chamber continues to add new summer, fall, winter and spring events to help stimulate business in the Long Beach area all year.
This summer, the chamber will hold two additional street fairs and carnivals — one in June and another in September — featuring eating establishments, merchants, rides and various family activities mostly from barrier island and Island Park businesses. As always, the chamber continues to aggressively promote Mark business community of Tannenbaum the Long Beach and the surrounding areas by providing effective meetings and networking events that include education, legislative advocacy, business information and community projects. This year, the chamber will continue to plan additional events and promotions for the fall, winter and holiday seasons that will start with the mid-October 2015 Michael J. Restaurant Week. Kerr On Nov. 1, the chamber will host its 52nd Annual Dinner Dance. As always, the chamber will be striving toward moving our businesses forward. Finally, we would like to thank our Board of Directors and dedicated office manager and executive director, Janet Cohen, whose efforts are responsible for the success of all that the chamber accomplishes. All of us at the chamber wish everyone a wonderful summer and hope to see you on our beautiful beaches.

ur shining City by the Sea is certainly the place to be in the summer months, and we are thrilled to offer even more family oriented, exciting events and activities than before. While summertime in Long Beach is always extraordinary, we are working to go above and beyond in 2015. Naturally, our primary attractions remain our gorgeous beach, the cleanest in the region according to the National Resource Defense Council and Newsweek, and our beautiful boardwalk, named the number one summer destination on Long Island by Newsday. However, our city has so much more to offer. Building on last year’s success of the Shoregasboard food truck market and the food carts along the beach and boardwalk, we have again expanded our food options, offering an even wider variety of food and beverages for beachgoers to enjoy. As far as recreational activities go, we have an incredibly diverse offering. From beach volleyball to baseball and softball, there are sports options for children and adults alike. Our day camp programs are popular as well. Long Beach also offers miniature golf, a recreational trapeze school, and, for the first time ever, bocce by the beach! One of my favorite things to enjoy during the summer in Long Beach would be our tremendous free
concert series. This summer, we have even expanded our schedule to include free concerts four nights a week on the beach. We also have a number of arts and crafts festivals returning along with the Long Beach International Film Festival. Of course, our fireworks extravaganza will be back again as well. Len So many of the decisions we Torres have made are based on the feedback we have received from you — our incredibly connected Long Beach community. Your contributions in surveys and focus groups have shaped our beautiful boardwalk along with its new amenities. We sincerely appreciate your feedback, and we will continue to seek your opinions on what you would like to see in the city in the future. Have a great summer! Len Torres City Council President

The Long Beach boardwalk in 1910
F
rom the seasonal migrations of returning Algonquin families in the 18th century to The Roaring ’20s, Long Beach has always been a city that stole people’s hearts. Long Beach was conceived in 1906 by Sen. William H. Reynolds; he had a vision for a planned community and saw what Long Beach could become: an unrivaled seaside resort. During World War I, however, his “Estates of Long Beach” concept was met with financial failure, leaving large summer homes vacant. Still, Reynolds’s dream and accomplishments — he built many of the early homes and structures in town, including the boardwalk — left an indelible mark and set the stage for what Long Beach would eventually become. By the 1930s, Long Beach had evolved into a year-round community for families. From Village Hall to City Hall, families continued to build homes, schools, libraries, churches, synagogues and movie theaters. Even the crash of the stock market in 1929 saw the opening of the Granada Towers and the Lido Hotel, and the quality-of-life in Long Beach was uncompromised. To learn more about the history of Long Beach, check out the Long Beach Historical Society’s museum at 226 W. Penn St. and take a guided tour. The museum is open on Sundays, from 1 to 4 p.m., or by appointment between April and December. Call (516) 432-1192 or visit www.longbeachhistory.org and www.facebook.com/LongBeachHistoricalSociety for more information and updates. The museum is complete with exhibits and knowledgeable docents who can speak about the city’s history in detail. The Historical Society’s mission is to collect, preserve and educate the community about the city’s wonderful — and sometimes crazy — history. The
society also holds many annual events and monthly programs at the museum. The museum is one of the original estates of Long Beach and its interior is an example of the American craftsman style. Exhibits are not limited to the museum’s exhibit room — the garage/chauffeurs’ quarters have been restored to its original beauty and charm. Additionally, the museum’s garden boasts historically accurate plantings and artifacts.

The first renderings of the finalized design for the new skate park.
he city is in the midst of building a new skate park, complete with an amoeba bowl, handrails and stairs, near the Recreation Center to be completed some time this summer. The project was fast-tracked by the City Council last December. Crews broke ground in May. Spohn Ranch, a California-based skate park design and construction firm, was hired by the city to complete the project utilizing input gathered from Long Beach residents at two public engagement meetings. Local skaters answered a series of questions to determine what elements should be included in the park and what skating styles it would accommodate. City officials said that the design would be accessible to skaters of all skill levels. According to a rep from Spohn Ranch, all types of skaters, regardless of skill level, can use everything in the park as each feature can be used differently to make it harder or easier. The new park will feature an amoeba bowl, a combination horseshoe bowl and mini-ramp, a speed hump and numerous handrails and stairs. It will be a roughly 15,000-square-foot L-shape, more than doubling the size of the city’s existing skate park, which was significantly damaged by Hurricane Sandy. That park is on the bay side of Magnolia Boulevard, but the new park will be closer to the Recreation Center, just east of the outdoor roller hockey rink along the bay.

‘Fly’ along the beach L
ocated at Riverside Boulevard, Long Beach’s flying trapeze program, I.FLY Trapeze, returns on May 23 by the boardwalk. You may sign up for a class and receive an introduction on the ground with a demonstration in the air by an I.FLY instructor. After that, you will get right to flying! You can also attempt a catch with an I.FLY instructor if you are ready — most will accomplish this in their first class! Beginners will learn the timing and technique to get their legs on the bar and take their hands off. In the second part of the session you could be ready for a mid-air wrist to wrist catch with an I.FLY instructor. You can also learn a backflip dismount off the bar and into the net. Returning flyers in this session will learn new tricks and positions and catch as well. Sessions generally cost $60, and there also are 8-week workshops you may sign up for to learn all about flying and how to become the perfect trapeze flyer! Group rates also available. Visit www.iflytrapeze.com for current rates, schedules and more information, or check out http://iflytrapeze.com/scheduleBeach.php for schedules.

Surfing — So Stoked! L
ong Beach is known for having some of the best breaks and, in 2011, the city hosted the Quiksilver Pro New York — the first Association of Surfing Professionals world tour event ever held on the East Coast. Long Beach has long been a town with a rich surfing culture and active surf community, and throughout the year, there are numerous events and professional surfing contests that attract hundreds of spectators to the city, such as last year’s Volcom Unsound Pro and NYSEA’s annual Surf Week. The surfing community is also well-known for its environmental advocacy and numerous fundraisers, whether it’s beach and canal cleanups organized by the Surfrider Foundation or the Long Beach Surfers’ Association, surf outings for kids and adults with developmental disabilities by the non-profit Surf for All, or Unsound Surf Shop’s annual art show in June that raises money for local organizations. And, of course, with two surf schools in the city — Skudin Surf and Surf2Live — kids and adults alike can grab a board and learn how to ride a wave, or simply get involved and experience the community’s Aloha spirit!
Christina Daly/Herald
Hometown favorite Balaram Stack advanced to the final round of the 2014 Volcom Unsound Pro contest in September and ultimately finished fourth, while California’s Kilian Garland finished first among the 96 competitors and won the $5,000 top prize, capping one of the most anticipated East Coast surf competitions since the Quiksilver Pro New York in 2011.
Surfing, skating and more!
T
he sixth annual Surf Week, presented by NYSEA, is slated to take over Long Beach in July and keep spectators busy with a five day, jam-packed lineup of events. The event runs from July 15-19 and has grown into a Long Beach staple with major sponsors such as Hurley. The week kicks off with an open surf contest, and traditionally features the kids’ surf contest, assorted skate contests and movie premieres, art shows parties, concerts, surf outings, a memorial paddle out, and more. Visit www.nysurfweek.com or www.liherald. com for more information and a full schedule of events.

he dining options in Long Beach are limitless, whether it’s a view of the Atlantic Ocean at the posh Allegria Hotel or grabbing some good ol’ barbecue at Swingbellys in the bustling West End. This summer, there will be a wider variety of food concessions along the beach and boardwalk than ever before, providing residents and visitors with an abundance of choices in convenient locations. After a successful season last summer, the food truck court — The Shoregasboard — will return. Whether you’re craving a taco, a stacked sandwich or some ice cream to cool off after a long day at the beach, there are plenty of dining options available along the boardwalk and around the city. New this year will be stationary carts along the boardwalk, as well as roaming vendors on the beach, selling some Long Beach favorites. Food will be served from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. and 5:30 to 8 p.m. on weekdays, and 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on weekends starting Memorial Day weekend. The food truck court will see the return of local businesses such as Swingbellys, New York ACAI, Villaggio, Sugo

A New Council for the Arts T
he City Council is looking to enhance the cultural environment of Long Beach by forming a new Council for the Arts that will promote the arts throughout the community. The organization will be tasked with advising and making recommendations to the City Council for new art programs, cultural activities and other initiatives. It will also promote the programs of the city’s 22-arts related organizations and encourage collaboration among the groups. The council will be responsible for increasing artistic awareness in the city through multiple facets including public displays, galleries and beautification efforts. Criteria for what type of projects the council will take on — as well as what skills the City Council should look for in a candidate — were determined by community input at public engagement meetings last year hosted by Sustainable Long Island. Popular suggestions included establishing a permanent venue for the arts, fundraisers, hosting a sand sculpture festival or series of “First Fridays” — a regularly occurring event the first Friday of every month, and a different gallery opening every week. Many other arts groups from the community are on board as well, including the Long Beach International Film Festival, Earth Arts, Artists-in-Partnership, Inc. and more. Visit www.longbeachny.gov for updates.

Members of West End Arts created a 400-piece community art installation project last year, made with wood from the old boardwalk that was destroyed by Hurricane Sandy. The group unveiled two new panels from its “Home Sweet Home” mural at a candlelight vigil in October to mark the second anniversary of the storm. West End Arts is among the numerous arts groups working with the city to form a new arts council.

Youth and Family Services A MESSAGE FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF YOUTH AND FAMILY SERVICES The City of Long Beach’s Department of Youth and Family Services has a longstanding commitment to providing quality services and programs to the families, children, young adults and senior citizens in our community. It’s an exciting time for us as we move to further develop programs and partnerships in the areas of senior concerns, cultural arts, education, employability skills and career training. Our Magnolia Community/Senior Center houses a licensed daycare center, the senior center programs, the “virtual” senior center, art gallery space through the Long Beach Art League, a performance space, film/ media center and a community garden, and also plays host to a myriad of community and city events. We recognize the special needs of the working and single-parent households, and offer full-day child care programs for infants to four years old, pre-K programs, after-school and holiday care programs and exciting, fun-filled camp programs. Whether full time or part-time, our programs are designed to help children develop their cognitive skills, physical abilities, use of language, creativity and social emotional sensitivity. Parents can rest assured that their children will receive quality care from professional, caring and certified child care personnel who are sensitive to the individual needs of every child we serve. I would like to take this opportunity to welcome those families and individuals who may be new to the barrier island and encourage you to call or visit us to learn more about the exciting year-round programs that are offered.

Take a bike ride J
ust in time for beautiful spring weather, residents will once again have access to a citywide bicyclesharing program. The city began phasing in the bikes last weekend, and the roll out of approximately 150 bicycles will continue through May 23. There are 24 bikes currently available. Manhattan-based Social Bicycles Inc. — known as SoBi — offers a smart bike rental program that uses GPS to track and register bicycles throughout the city. Users can rent the bikes online using the company’s website, a mobile application, at point-of-purchase kiosks or directly on the bikes themselves. When a user is done with a bike, it doesn’t need to be returned to a hub at the end of the session — SoBi bikes can be locked up to any bike rack, though you may be charged an additional fee if you end your trip outside of a hub location. Two pricing plans are available: riders can pay either $5 hourly for their ride or $50 for the entire 2015 season. Cyclists can share mapped rides and statistics including miles traveled, the amount of carbon dioxide reduced by riding, calories burned and how much money was saved compared to driving. “Our partnership with Social Bicycles promotes a healthy lifestyle and encourages a more bike-friendly city which is in line with our Complete Streets goals,” Councilman Scott Mandel said.

They also are there to make sure that all of the equipment is in working order.
PLAYGROUNDS Playground facilities are located at: Georgia Avenue* and West Beech Street; Magnolia Boulevard and the Boardwalk; Pacific Boulevard* and Shore Road; Park Place* and West Hudson Street; Clark Street* at Reynolds Channel; Veterans Park located on the Recreation Department Campus on Magnolia Boulevard and West Bay Drive.

Superintendent's Message T
he Long Beach School District continues to make improvements in our facilities and curriculum, and introduced several upgrades and initiatives this school year. Among them is the digital media studio at Long Beach High School, which offers professional-grade film and sound editing technology. Students have earned awards for videos they created using these resources. A new turf field at the high school provided the setting for the school’s first outdoor homecoming pep rally and was available all year for use by our sports teams. As part of the storm recovery, new playgrounds replaced damaged ones at West School and Lindell School this year. Future plans include rebuilding the Administration Building and damaged middle school classrooms, projects that will be fully funded by FEMA and the New York Storm Recovery. Students continue to flourish in our academic programs, as indicated by their many achievements. Fourteen high school students were recognized for their writing in the Scholastic Art and Writing Awards program, and for the third consecutive year, a national-level gold medal was earned. The elementary school Odyssey of the Mind team will soon be competing at the international level as a result of their success in regional and state challenges. The high school’s literary and arts magazine, Fragments, has again been recognized with national and state awards, and LBHS science research students continue to earn awards at prestigious competitions. The high school was again listed in the Washington Post’s Challenge Index, ranking No. 20
among all the high performing high schools on Long Island, No. 55 in New York State and No. 583 in the country (putting it in the top 3 percent nationally). Our schools focus on college and career readiness, with many opportunities for students to explore the areas of interest David Weiss and develop skills which will help them with what they may wish to pursue in the future. More than 600 high school students are currently enrolled in at least one college-level class, and close to 140 juniors and seniors are International Baccalaureate Diploma candidates. The middle school is in the final phases of becoming an authorized Middle Years Program school, which will impact all students in the school. For the fifth consecutive year, the district was identified as a Best Community for Music Education by the National Association of Music Merchants Foundation. Student-athletes also earned a number of successes this year. Among their achievements are a 2016 Olympic Trials qualifier for swimming, the New York State Wendy’s Heisman Award, the Martone Award and All-State First Team offensive football lineman honor.

Police Department S
ummer’s here, and protecting the safety of our residents is naturally the first priority of the Long Beach Police Department. While we expect to have a tremendous summer, we will have many challenges with the increase in activities throughout the city. As you may have read, you will see additional and varied vendors on the boardwalk. With that in mind, we are happy to announce that our summer special officers program is in full operation and officers will be back on the “boards” ensuring the safety of all our residents and visitors. It is important to note that there has been a very aggressive approach to training within the LBPD. The Long Beach Police Department has continued the active shooter training using City Hall, so we can respond rapidly and efficiently should the need arise. Many officers have received Narcan training to add another tool for us to deal with the opioid problems facing all communities. We anticipate that all officers will be certified in the administration of this life saving drug by year's end. The Long Beach Police Department has been a leading force in the fight against drunk and drugged driving. There are only three drug recognition experts (DRE) on Long Island, and we have one of
them. We have trained numerous officers in the use of Portable Breath Testers to aid in the fight against impaired driving. In 2014, the Police Department saw an increase in arrests for DWI offenses and we are on target for another major increase. Along with our enforcement of DWI laws, we will be taking a zero Michael tolerance approach to offenders Tangney to the quality of life our residents have come to expect. We will have additional patrols this summer season utilizing beach vehicles, bicycles and motorcycles to ensure a peaceful and safe summer. We welcome everyone in our city to enjoy all that Long Beach has to offer, from our beautiful beaches and boardwalk to our fine restaurants and special events. Please remember to drive and bike carefully, and obey traffic laws. We ask that everyone share the road and be extra mindful so we can reduce the number of accidents even further. Let's have a wonderful and safe summer. Michael Tangney Police Commissioner

he Long Beach Martin Luther King Center Inc. is a grassroots community organization dedicated to improving the health, educational attainment, human welfare and opportunities for youth, adults and families in Long Beach. The Long Beach Martin Luther King Center Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charitable tax-exempt organization serving children, individuals and families in the City of Long Beach, and greater Nassau County, since 1998. Designated as the hub of the North Park residential area, the MLK Center is committed to develop innovative programming and maintaining and improving the well-being of youth, adults and seniors. The MLK Center traces its origins to 1967, when local African American community organizers began to develop an institution they could call their own. In 1981, completion of the MLK Community Center occurred simultaneously with the development of new MLK Center programs. For more than 40 years, the total programming package of the MLK Center has been a mixture of community activism, urban culture, traditional southern experience, and the traditional experiences of Caribbean American, Hispanic and Central American immigrants who have become a growing part of the North Park community. To learn more about the MLK Center’s history, mission and programs, visit www.lbmlk.org.

Posh Pets is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and placement of homeless animals — many of which are saved from imminent euthanasia at city shelters, according to the group’s website. The Long Beach shelter, at 770 Park Place, continues to operate as a “no kill” shelter. Posh Pets takes in all animals surrendered by residents as well as those that are seized and brought to the shelter by the city’s animal control officers, and provides veterinary services, kennel help, food and litter, and covers administration costs.

Town and County NASSAU COUNTY
TOWN OF HEMPSTEAD
L
The Town of Hempstead is the largest township in the United States with over 142 square miles, a population of approximately 725,000, 34 unincorporated areas, 22 incorporated villages, over 65 parks and marinas and 2,500 miles of city, county and state roads. In 1643, two Englishmen, John Carman and the Reverend Robert Fordham, traveled from Connecticut across the Long Island Sound to Long Island. They represented a group of settlers who wished to purchase from the Indians (the Reuckowacky, the Merockes, the Matinecock, and the Massapequas), the current Towns of Hempstead and North Hempstead. In 1644, the Town of Hempstead was founded when a patent was obtained from William Kieft, the Dutch Governor of New Amsterdam. The name Hempstead seems to derive from Hemel-Hempstead in Great Britain, which means town spot. Hempstead grew steadily in the 1800s and by 1855 it was the most populous town in Queens County with just under 10,500 people. The town, along with the rest of Long Island, supplied the greater metropolitan area with a multitude of farm products and provided abundant recreational opportunities including seashore resorts, fox hunting, polo and horse racing. The population peaked at just over 800,000 in 1970, and is now levelled at approximately 725,000. Today, on the Long Beach barrier island, the Town of Hempstead encompasses Point Lookout and Lido Beach to the east and East Atlantic Beach and Atlantic Beach to the west. The Town maintains two marinas in Point Lookout as well as several beach parks. Hempstead Town has seven elected board members. The supervisor, Kate Murray, serves a two-year term. The six council members serve four years each.
ong Beach became a city in 1922, but it is also part of Nassau County and certain county services and facilities are available to Long Beach residents. In fact, barrier island residents who live outside the city limits — in East Atlantic Beach to the west and Lido Beach and Point Lookout to the east — depend on them. Nassau is governed by an elected Legislature that was formed in January 1996. It replaced the Board of Supervisors, which was ruled unconstitutional because of its weighted voting system. The Legislature’s 19 districts enable constituents to have greater access to their elected representatives. It includes an independent budget director who advises the Legislature on spending and revenue matters. The legislature also enables residents to submit petitions for proposed new laws that legislators are obligated to consider. The legislators serve two-year terms. The Fourth District includes the City of Long Beach, Atlantic Beach, East Atlantic Beach, Lido Beach and Point Lookout. The county executive — currently Edward Mangano — serves a four-year term and is the chief administrator.

Chamber of Commerce Bios Mark Tannenbaum CLTC, LUTCF Mark Tannenbaum, CLTC, LUTCF, after serving six years as the executive vice president of the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce, became president of the Chamber in January. As a resident of the Long Beach/ South Shore region for more than 55 years, Mark and Michele Kivolowitz live in Harbor Isle. They have three daughters and five grandchildren between them. In 2005, after a 35-year career in business management in New York City, Mark relocated his professional practice to Long Island. As president and a member of the Board of Directors, Mark devotes his time and skills in giving back to the community by organizing and helping to develop many projects to promote and benefit the business community and members of the chamber. Mark has used his business management skills to create and organize a highly successful bi-annual Restaurant Week for the Long Beach community. When Mark first joined the chamber, he founded and developed the annual Summer Blast and Winter Blast. He has also developed numerous advertising campaigns, and is instrumental in the development of the chamber’s website. During 2014, Mark supervised and developed the chamber’s Shop Long Beach television advertising campaign and Holiday Shopping Guide. Additionally, Mark was a strong advocate in partnering with the city to purchase the Holiday Lights for the Park Avenue business district. He has been a continued presence as an advocate and representative of the barrier island and Island Park business community to the local municipalities and organizations in representing the business community’s interests. Mark maintained a significant presence in dealing with the Federal Emergency Management Agency, Small Business Administration, Nassau County government, NY Rising and elected officials to help the business
community in dealing with the recovery process from Hurricane Sandy. In 2012, Mark pioneered with the Guardian, a group dental plan for the chamber membership, the first ever to be offered by a chamber. Mark organized and developed the chamber’s first Street Fair — due to its overwhelming success, the chamber will be holding three street fairs and carnivals in 2015 during the months of May, June and September. Mark is a financial advisor, specializing in financial, protection and retirement strategies and estate planning for individuals and businesses. Mark uses his 40-plus years of business management experience and skills to guide his clients in setting and achieving their financial objectives. His commitment to his clients is to work diligently in being a trusted, lifelong advisor. Mark occasionally writes a column for the Tribune. Mark is an active member in The National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors, the National Care Planning Council for Long Term Care, a charter member of ElderCare Matters Alliance and the American Association for Long Term Care Insurance.

Stanley Fleishman “Rockets,” as Stanley Fleishman is affectionately called, has served as the chamber's chairman of the board for more than 30 years. He and his good friend, the late Larry Elovich, took over an ailing chamber and together they made it a force to be reckoned with in the city. Under their guidance and diligence — and now under the leadership of Mark Tannenbaum and Michael Kerr — a once fading chamber is now fiscally stable and a viable part of the City of Long Beach. Their secret formula is cooperation. They work closely with the merchants, the city administration and the school district. A native of Long Beach, Stanley, along with his brother, Norman, and his illustrious father, Morris, have been active in business and civic affairs in this city all their lives. After he left the Army in 1953, Stanley and his family ran Fleishman Automotive, an overwhelmingly successful automobile sales business. In 1980 he sold the business and retired. Additionally, Stanley is a twotime past president and chairman of the Long Beach Lions Club. For more than 40 years, he was a member and chairman of The Long Beach Recreation Commission. He was instrumental in getting the ice-skating rink, the Monroe Boulevard tennis courts, and the neighborhood playgrounds throughout the city. Moreover, Stanley has taken an active part in almost every service and civic organization in town, including Temple Emanu-El. With his wife, Fran, and their children, Randi Fleishman, Sari Botton and Brian Macaluso, and Amy and Yaron Goren, Stanley enjoys a warm and fun-filled family life. "The Great Baldini,” as Stanley is also known, often plies his special magic on his three
grandsons, Sam, Noah and Julian.

Ian Danby Born and raised near Manchester, England, Ian studied in London and Bath University, and lived and travelled throughout Europe for 7 years before landing in New York City in 1984, where he wrote software programs and managed a sports resort in Connecticut. Ian settled in Long Beach in 1992, and incorporated his software company, GYG Associates Ltd., in 1995. In 2001, Ian partnered with Michael Longworth to open an Internet café called The Cybernet Place, offering software training, website design, hosting, and computer repair services. Four years later, they moved out of their storefront location on Park Avenue and concentrated their business on web design and software programming. Hurricane Sandy wiped out the Cybernet office in 2012, and, unfortunately, all of the equipment was lost. However all data was saved, so no websites went down, and within 24 to 48 hours all customers were back online. During this time, the business operated out of Michael’s Lido Beach home, while they gave away free websites and worked probono, to help keep their customers Continued on page 97

in business. This dedication and loyalty paid off, and in May 2013, The Cybernet Place relocated to its current office at 38 W. Park Ave., opposite the Long Island Rail Road station and City Hall.
