Town Councilman Chris J. Coschignano recently announced that the Town of Oyster Bay will be marking its 50th anniversary of the popular Summer Recreation Program.
“The town’s Summer Recreation Program offers children between the ages of 4 and 12 an exciting, age-grouped summer experience,” said Coschignano. “Participants take part in trips, tournaments, shows and athletic events, including the always popular Tobay Games.”
Coschignano noted that the program, held at Marjorie R. Post in Massapequa, Plainview-Old Bethpage and Syosset-Woodbury Community Parks, Ellsworth W. Allen Town Park in Farmingdale, Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park and Beach in Oyster Bay and Tappen Beach in Glenwood Landing, runs from July 6 through Aug. 14. There are both morning and afternoon sessions available, and children may attend both; however, no supervision is provided for the lunch hour between 11:45 a.m. and 12:45 p.m.
Parents must make arrangements for their children during this time.
For more information, or to receive a registration packet, call the Department of Parks Recreation Division at 516-797-4125. Families with children who participated in last year’s program will automatically be sent registration packets. The registration deadline is June 19.
