HarborFest Returns To The Dock

HarborFest. New to HarborFest this year is the ship Avalon, which will be available for Bay cruises narrated by docents from the Cow Neck Peninsula Historical Society. The Avalon is sponsored by LI Boat Rentals. For the more adventurous, Atlantic Outfitters will offer free kayaking. A highly anticipated event is the demonstration of the Port Washington Fire Department’s Fire Boat. It will be moored at the town dock for HarborFest and the demonstrations are sure to be exciting for all the festival goers. Many lucky visitors can catch a free ride on the picturesque North Fork Trolley, sponsored by the Greater Port Washington Business Improvement District (BID). The trolley will make a continuous loop from the train station to the festival area. The HarborFest Model Boat Regatta program has Chamber of Commerce volunteers teaching third-graders from all Port Washington elementary schools how to make catamaran-style boats from recycled materials. Registration for participants takes place at Baxter’s Pond at 9:15 a.m. for Sousa and Daly, at 10 a.m. for Guggenheim and Salem, and at 10:30 a.m. for Manorhaven and St. Peter’s. The Regatta races will take place from 10 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. Marian Weissman organized the classroom sessions. Bill Palafox, Mary Lu Dempsey Palafox, Hank Brakman and Joan Brakman helped to put the boat kits together. Bill Palafox and Laura Silver McGuire will organize the races. Other key team members are Holly Byrne, Fred Hsu, Tom Scalice and Paul Schrynemakers. The Regatta’s T-shirt sponsor is the Port Washington Public Library Foundation—Tepper

Intergenerational Program. Regatta benefactors are the Baxter’s Pond Foundation and the Nautical Advisory Committee of the Port Washington Public Library. Major sponsors are Atlantic Outfitters, Center Island Contracting, Knights of Columbus Council 1227, Laffey Real Estate, the Manhasset Bay Yacht Club, North Shore Yacht Club, and the Port

Washington Yacht Club. Additional financial support is received from many Chamber of Commerce members. The popular HarborFest Family Fun Park is sponsored by Sandata Technologies and organized by The Parent Resource Center (PRC) and the Chamber of Commerce. Visit the PRC Fun Tent, which always delights the children with fabulous games and crafts. This year the PRC has added a train ride in the Fun Park. The PRC activities are sponsored by North Shore Day Camp and Whole Foods Market Manhasset. Also in the Family Fun Park, the Science Museum of Long Island will offer hands-on fun with a touch tank, the New York Islanders will bring a Slap Shot game and the Mad Science booth will let kids make their own Goo. Plus, a dozen other local organizations and businesses will have games, sports activities, science fun and crafts so the kids will never get bored.

As soon as you enter the dock, look for the Chamber of Commerce booth and the Town of North Hempstead booth near the entrance. Both locations will be giving out free reusable shopping bags for all your HarborFest purchases and future shopping. The chamber’s bags are sponsored by the Port Washington Water Taxi. Additional bags have been donated by Stop & Shop. Everyone is excited that the three-masted schooner SoundWaters will return to Manhasset Bay for HarborFest.

HarborFest Model Boat Regatta Don’t miss this year’s 21st annual HarborFest Model Sailboat Regatta for third-graders on Sunday, June 4, at Baxter’s Pond in Port Washington. The regatta is an exciting part of the HarborFest 2017 celebration where third-graders make and sail their own pontoon-style boats made with recycled materials. All third-graders who register on race day morning will have a chance to win. Race day registration times at Baxter’s Pond are staggered for participants as follows: • Sousa & Daly—9:15 a.m. • Guggenheim & Salem—10 a.m. • Manorhaven & St. Peter’s—10:30 a.m. The first elimination heat will take place at 10 a.m. with the final heat slated for 11 a.m. The awards ceremony immediately follows. The children will compete against other “skippers” from their schools, with the winners of these rounds racing against other schools. During the awards ceremony, awards will go to individual school

champions, the first, second and third place overall finishers and the prestigious Team Spirit Award to the school with the highest percent of participation in the regatta. The regatta school instruction chairperson is Marian Weissman. She and many capable volunteer instructors will have met with more than 400 third-graders at all of Port’s elementary schools to show them how to make their boats. Empty milk or juice cartons are transformed into pontoons. Paper sails and plastic bags are turned into sails. Wooden dowels serve as masts and booms, and slats of wood act as keels to keep the boats sailing upright and straight. Bill Palafox is the Principle Race Officer (PRO) for the actual race day and responsible for the day’s operation. He is ably supported by his team of Hank Brakman, Joan Brakman, Holly Byrne, Mary Lu Dempsey-Palafox, Fred Hsu, Laura Silver McGuire, Tom Scalice and Paul Schrynemakers.

The first 200 children to register for the event will receive T-shirts, compliments of the Tepper Intergenerational Program of the Port Washington Public Library Foundation. Benefactors for the event are the Baxter’s Pond Foundation and the Nautical Advisory Council of the Port Washington Public Library. Major sponsors include Atlantic Outfitters, Center Island Contractors, Knights of Columbus Council 1227, Laffey Real Estate, Manhasset Bay Yacht Club, North Shore Yacht Club and Port Washington Yacht Club. Additional financial support is received from many Chamber of Commerce members. The regatta was created to fire kids’ imaginations and give them the challenge of creating something themselves, seeing their creation in action, all while learning the principles of buoyancy and sailing. It is also a great way for them to begin to develop a lifelong appreciation for the water as well as helping them develop team spirit.
