Letter: Gratitude For Storm Response

On behalf of the Glen Cove Senior Citizen Advisory Council, I would like to take this opportunity to gratefully acknowledge Mayor Ralph Suozzi, Deputy Mayor Maureen Basdavanos, Glen Cove Senior Center Director Carol Waldman, their dedicated staff, and the City of Glen Cove first responders for their valiant work to ensure the safety and well-being of the citizenry of Glen Cove and surrounding communities during and after catastrophic Hurricane Sandy.

We consistently recognize that Glen Cove is an extraordinary city, but the events of Oct. 27 and beyond, as exemplified by the people we are acknowledging, as well as countless unnamed others, have proven that Glen Cove has the heart of a lion. We thank them for their tireless work and bravery in the face of this devastating storm.

We stand in awe of their humanity, commitment, and yes, love for the people not only of Glen Cove, but, indeed, for anyone who needed help during that trying period. Thank you one and all.

Elizabeth Hausner, Chair

Glen Cove Senior Citizen

The Parish hall was transformed into an art gallery and the proud students eagerly lead their parents and special guests through the display.

Glen Cove Junior Lacrosse Club Week 5 Round Up

Friday, 17 May 2013 00:00

The third and fourth grade ‘Wee Knights’ took a road trip this week and played a determined Lindenhurst team. With a beautiful beach backdrop and on a new turf field, Glen Cove lost a tough one 7 – 3. Goal scorers for Glen Cove were Eammon Doyle with two and Will Feldmann with one. There were several positives to take away from this loss. The first is that the Knights came out from the first whistle and played tough trading goals with Lindenhurst despite playing with a smaller squad then usual due to prior commitments. Secondly, the Knights played solid defense. The players are using their lacrosse sticks to disrupt the other team, which is making the other team put the ball on the ground. Kelly Larkin, Daniel McFadden, Jaden Thom and Dominick Williams did a great job on defense.
