ToBay Summer Recreation Program registration underway Registration for the Town of Oyster Bay Summer Recreation Program is currently underway by mail, according to Town Councilwoman Rose Marie Walker. "Now entering its 42nd year, the Town of Oyster Bay Summer Recreation Program offers an exciting and affordable summer option," Councilwoman Walker stated. "Children between the ages of four and 12 are eligible to join this age-grouped program, which provides a safe, clean and stimulating atmosphere where they can enjoy themselves. Children are grouped into Early Childhood, ages four to six; Juniors, ages seven to eight; and Intermediates, ages nine and ten and Seniors, 11 to 12. Depending upon the children's ages, the program offers trips, tournaments, shows and athletic events, including the 30th Annual Tobay Games." "Families with children who participated in last year's Summer Recreation Program will receive a registration packet for this year's program," Councilwoman Walker continued. "For all others, just call the Recreation Division of the Town's Department of Parks at 797-4125 and you will be sent a registration packet." Councilwoman Walker noted that the fee for the Summer Recreation Program is $75 for one child and $100 for two or more in the same family. The registration deadline is June 22. The Summer Recreation Program will be held at Marjorie R. Post (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. The Summer Recreation Program begins Thursday, July 5, and runs through Friday, August 10. There are both morning and afternoon sessions each day and children may attend both. However, no supervision is provided between 11:45 a.m. and 12:45 p.m. Parents must make arrangements for their children during this time. "The Town's Summer Recreation Program is an excellent opportunity for children to participate in wholesome activities right in their own communities," Councilwoman Walker commented. "Both parents and kids love the program. We've watched many kids begin as participants in Summer Recreation and return later to spend summers working as counselors in the same program."
