Train show benefits museum
The Oyster Bay Town Board recently joined with Joel and Barbara Berse from Trainville Hobby Depot in Hicksville to present checks representing the funds raised from model train shows that benefitted Hicksville Fire Department Emergency Co. #5 and the Oyster Bay Railroad Museum. Supervisor Saladino and his colleagues on the Town Board recognized the support and generosity of Trainville Hobby Depot and spoke about the importance of the organization and how their support will benefit the fire service in Hicksville and allow the Museum to preserve the railroad heritage of Long Island for present and future generations.

Town plans extra safety patrols due to Iran attack With the FBI’s counterterrorism and intelligence teams on high alert as U.S. operations against Iran continue, Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino has announced intensified public safety patrols around houses of worship and government buildings. After collaboration with the Nassau County Police Department, we can assure residents there is no specific threat to our area, however, everyone must work together to keep our communities safe and be vigilant in protecting neighborhoods. “Oyster Bay Public Safety Officers will intensify patrols around temples, synagogues, churches and government buildings,” said Supervisor Sal-
adino. “While at the present time there is no known threat to our community, the Department of Public Safety will work around the clock to ensure the safety of our citizens. Remember, if you see something suspicious, say something. Dial 911.” See Something, Say Something! The Town offered a reminder to residents that they can help law enforcement by serving as an extra set of eyes and ears. Do not assume a package, bag or box was left somewhere by accident. If you see an unattended package, at or outside of a church, temple, synagogue, train station, mall or high traffic area – or if you see anything suspicious, report it.
