Mapping Out The Fun At McKenna Elementary School

First graders envisioned their dream amusement parks while working on their social studies skills at McKenna Elementary School in the Massapequa School District. Students in Tusha Cresenzo’s class have been learning about maps, so they took this knowledge and coupled it with their imaginations to design amusement parks. Students drew pictures of various attractions such as Ferris wheels, rollercoasters and water rides, and added in other common places like food stands and gift shops. Their maps included labels and a compass rose.

Ms. Cresenzo said that she has a different theme each week in her classroom at the end of the school year which connects to the learning activities. The theme for the week of May 26-29 was amusement parks, so the project was a fun way for students to review their understanding of maps.

Volunteer Opportunity To Help Terrapin Turtles Survive

June 20th Survival Day Includes Beach Cleanup

In an effort to help protect diamondback terrapins, Oyster Bay Town Clerk Richard LaMarca announces that the Town and Friends of the Bay are co-hosting a Terrapin conservation and Beach Cleanup Day on Saturday, June 20th from 9:00 a.m. to 11:00 a.m. at Centre Island Beach in Bayville.

environmental partners and local volunteers to help protect this vulnerable species.”

“The Town of Oyster Bay joined forces with Friends of the Bay to launch ‘Team Terrapin,’ to help protect the Diamondback Terrapin turtle, as this small species lives in fresh or brackish waters in our Town,” said Town Clerk LaMarca. “These turtles, which have distinctive diamond-shaped rings covering their shells, have a near-threatened conservation status and we are working with our

During this Terrapin conservation and Beach Cleanup Day, volunteers will be trained to identify signs of nesting terrapins and briefed on how to collect data. The event features a beach cleanup and tours of nesting sites.

“We feel it is our duty to protect and bring awareness to this vulnerable and important species that is native to our area and we are inviting volunteers to help us gain a better understanding of the current status of the Oyster Bay diamondback terrapin population,” said Christine Suter, executive director of Friends of the Bay. Terrapin monitoring will

take place for four to six weeks after the event and Team Terrapin volunteers will be encouraged to sign up for half-hour or one-hour monitoring shifts during weekdays and weekends. This is an excellent citizen science opportunity for people of all ages. Community service hours and certificates of participation will be provided upon request.

Terrapins can be found along the northern shore of Oyster Bay, especially at Centre Island Beach, with a large population at the head of Mill Neck Creek near Beaver Dam. To register for the event, volunteers should visit www.friendsofthebay. org/terrapin-monitoring. For more information, please email info@ friendsofthebay.org.

What Is The Summer Solstice And What’s Notable About This Day?

June brings many reasons to celebrate, including Father’s Day, the end of the school year, vacations, and the arrival of summer. The summer solstice occurs when the Earth’s tilt toward the sun reaches its maximum, creating the longest day of the year in terms of daylight.

The 2026 summer solstice takes place on June 21 and marks the official start of astronomical summer in the Northern Hemisphere. The word “solstice” comes from Latin and means “sun standing still.”

Some interesting facts about the summer solstice:

• It occurs when one of Earth’s poles is tilted most directly toward the sun.

• Solstices happen twice

each year — one in summer and one in winter.

• Many cultures celebrate the solstice with festivals and traditions.

• Daylight hours vary by location, with northern regions enjoying the longest days.

• The solstice usually falls between June 20 and June 22.

• Despite being the longest day of the year, it is not typically the hottest; peak summer temperatures often arrive in late July and August.

The summer solstice marks the beginning of summer and offers the perfect opportunity to enjoy longer days and warmweather activities.

New Memorial Honoring Fallen Baymen Unveiled

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino, Councilman Lou Imbroto, Councilman Tom Hand, Town Clerk Rich LaMarca and Receiver of Taxes

Jeffrey Pravato joined with members of the Baymen’s

Heritage Association and Nassau County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder to host a dedication ceremony for a new monument at Theodore Roosevelt Park.

The Baymen’s Memorial Monument, which was

installed overlooking the harbor where many baymen make their living, is a lasting tribute to the sacrifices made by all baymen.

“This new monument, featuring a statue of a bayman pulling his catch

onto his boat, will forever remember those who make their living from the sea. This will be a place of reflection, where friends, family, and visitors can view our beautiful harbor and take a few minutes to think about

the sacrifices made by our baymen,” said Supervisor Saladino. “They toil in a challenging environment and endure hardship to bring the bounties of the sea to our tables. Throughout the year, despite the

elements, baymen harvest clams and oysters in the waters, providing one of the last locally gathered food supplies in our area – and their work is full of risk.”

The Supervisor unveiled the monument alongside the family of Michael Kennedy, who lost his life as a baymen on the waters of the Long Island Sound, as well as members of the Baymen’s Heritage Association, Nassau County Police Commissioner Patrick Ryder, local officials, the artist who created the monument, several local baymen, representatives from the Joel Foundation, and acclaimed performing artist Mike DelGuidice.

Members of the Baymen’s Heritage Association raised funds for the project, which included a large donation from local musician Billy Joel. The memorial honors the Town’s Baymen and those who have lost their lives to the demanding profession.

Oyster Festival Attracts New Title Sponsor For 2026

As planning begins to get underway for the East Coast’s largest waterfront festival, Town officials announce that the 43rd annual Oyster Fest will welcome a new title sponsor, Property Tax Reduction Consultants (www. ptrc.com), headed by Sean Acosta.

“We are thrilled Property Tax Reduction Consultants as our lead sponsor for this year’s iconic seaside festival,” said Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino. “Sean Acosta is no stranger to philanthropic endeavors, as someone who participates in numerous charitable community projects throughout the year.”

This year’s Oyster Fest, run in partnership with the Town of Oyster Bay and the Oyster Bay-East Norwich Chamber of Commerce, will return to the hamlet of Oyster Bay the weekend of October 17th and 18th. The event, which welcomes hundreds of thousands of visitors each year, showcases the historic hamlet

of Oyster Bay while helping to raise charitable funds for local non-profit organizations.

“I have always enjoyed being part of great community programs, especially those that give back to others. I’m thrilled that Property Tax Reduction Consultants can participate in this year’s Oyster Fest and help make it a great success,” Sean Acosta said.

How Reading Builds Young Children’s Vocabulary

A study from The Ohio State University found large differences in word exposure based on how often young children are read to. Children whose parents read them five books a day heard about 1.48 million words before kindergarten, compared with just over 4,600 words for children who were never read to. Even daily reading resulted in far fewer words than reading multiple books a day. Beyond vocabulary growth, reading supports children’s communication skills, empathy, literacy, and understanding of the world.

The Woman’s Club of Massapequa Scholarship Awards

The May General Meeting of the Woman’s Club of Massapequa was presided by President, Antoinette La Bonte. The Child Welfare Scholarship Committee headed by Chair, Jo Ann Hundertmark presented two Massapequa High School students a $1500 Scholarship award for “most improved” during their high school years. Congratulations go to our winners Olivia Capobianco and Abigail Smar! Special thanks to Hospitality Chairs Tami Valenti and Tammy Lestingi and their wonderful team including Tina Polek, Judy Guardiola and Billie Jean Theriot for setting up a lovely “welcome table” for our winners, family and friends.

In addition, The Child Welfare Department contributed to Birthday-In-ABox, which is a wonderful organization that provides a birthday celebration for a child living in a domestic violence shelter. This year two children were selected to receive a beautifully decorated box filled to the brim with all the fixings for a birthday party.  As no party would be complete without gifts, our members Rose Falco, Lucy Carone,

One study also noted the effects that reading to young children can have on the relationship between parent and child. That study, authored by researchers at the University of Wollongong in Australia and Boston University and published in the journal Archives of Disease in Childhood, found that reading to young children supports a strong relationship between parent and child.

Welcome Claudia!

Town Unveils Historical Sign At TOBAY Beach To Commemorate 100th Birthday Of Marilyn Monroe

Oyster Bay Town

Supervisor Joseph Saladino and Town

Receiver of Taxes Jeff Pravato dedicated a historical sign at TOBAY Beach to commemorate Marilyn Monroe’s visit to TOBAY Beach in celebration of what would have been her 100th birthday. Prior to becoming Marilyn Monroe, the young upand-coming starlet was Norma Jean Mortenson, looking for her big break. She had been cast in some minor film roles and was looking for her big break into show business.

“In June of 1949, she visited New York City, looking to catapult her career. Her photographer wanted to set up a photoshoot to capture her youth, her beauty and her great personality.

For her backdrop, they selected TOBAY Beach!” said Supervisor Saladino. “The photos taken that day were intended to build her portfolio and catch the attention of future casting directors, and that’s exactly what they did.”

As Marilyn and her photographer Andre de Dienes arrived at TOBAY Beach, the overcast and rainy weather suddenly cleared, and they found they basically had the beach to themselves. The beautiful portraits that he captured generated immediate publicity for the young star – with one of the pictures appearing on the cover of a prestigious British magazine. Hollywood studios quickly took notice, as her look of youthful innocence,

vulnerability and effortless beauty came across vividly through the camera lens.

By the early 1950s, Marilyn was landing small but influential roles in major films, which further caught the attention of both critics and studios.

By the mid-1950s, she had secured her status as the ultimate Hollywood bombshell and officially changed her name to Marilyn Monroe.

“This beautiful location was where history began, right here at TOBAY Beach. Now we will forever memorialize the iconic moment that Marilyn became Marilyn against the beautiful backdrop of our beach,” Supervisor Saladino. “TOBAY wasn’t just a quiet escape, it was the place where a legend was launched.”

Officials dedicate a historical sign commemorating Marilyn Monroe’s visit to TOBAY Beach, in celebration of what would have been the star’s 100th birthday.
