LONG BEACH GUIDE

a letter from the

publishers

Long Beach is on the move Since Superstorm Sandy blew through here four years ago, citizens of the barrier isle have worked hard to build our community back smarter, stronger and better than ever.

The past year has seen South Nassau Communities Hospital open a temporary emergency facility on the grounds of the old Medical Center, with plans to build a Clifford more comprehensive facility. The new boardwalk saw a Richner record number of visitors last summer, and this summer will introduce concession stands, bringing food back to the thoroughfare for the first time in years. Surf culture continues to flourish in Long Beach. And, while many of us can’t imagine the beach being any better than it already is, the City Council banned smoking on the beach and extended lifeguards’ hours in the evenings on weekends.

The newly formed Long Beach Arts Council will work to turn the city into a cultural mecca by bringing together the many creative folks already living here and, Stuart hopefully, attracting more. Bridgeworks opened on Long Richner Beach Boulevard, giving the city its first co-working space, designed to attract tech startups, and several new apartment projects are planned, all making Long Beach a more attractive place for millennials to live and work.

• • • And now Memorial Day is here, marking the official start of the beach season and the unofficial start of summer. Those of us with sand in our shoes look forward to the respite of long, lazy summer days as we return to our beloved ocean and beach.

A look through this year’s Guide reveals just how jam-packed with activities this summer will be. We have tried to make this, our 26th edition of the Guide, the most complete source of information about the City by the Sea and the adjoining communities of East Atlantic Beach, Lido Beach and Point Lookout.

The Long Beach Guide is a special publication of the Long Beach Herald, the hometown newspaper of the barrier isle. The Guide is published in cooperation with the Long Beach Chamber of Commerce, and we are honored to mark another year as the official publication of the chamber.

We hope you find this issue of the Guide useful and informative, and that you enjoy reading the Herald 52 weeks a year. Have a great summer, and we’ll see you on the beach!

The Michelle O’Neill Volleyball Tournament.

Long Beach is, without a doubt, the crown jewel of the South Shore, a unique be beach community that boasts a wide range of entertainment and recreational activitie ties, everything from surfing and beach volleyball to dining and nightlife.

Throughout the year, Long Beach has something for everyone, and it’s no surpr that the city of approximately 33,000 residents appears on numerous “Best Of” prise lists.

Long Beach is home to several professional surfers, including Will and Cliff Skudin, Balaram Stack and TJ Gumiela, as well as a light heavyweight boxing S c champion, Seanie Monaghan. It is also the hometown of actor Billy Crystal and rrocker Joan Jett.

Surfing magazine recently named Long Beach as home to one of “The 10 Most Important Waves In America,” while the Natural Resources Defense Council named I the th city the second-cleanest beach in the U.S. With five miles of beautiful beaches, why go to the Hamptons? Long Beach is just a 50-minute train ride from New York City.

Long Beach has made a tremendous comeback since Hurricane Sandy. There are a numerous restaurants and bars throughout the city, as well as shops and trendy clothing boutiques, four surf shops and two hotels. There is no shortage of places to c grab a bite or dance the night away. g Of course, Long Beach has a new, 2.2-mile boardwalk, and residents and visitors alike can enjoy amenities such as food trucks and, new this year, boardwalk concessions offering a wider variety of food options; a trapeze school; two surf schools and volleyball leagues; a number of refurbished children’s parks; live concerts on the v bbeach, and much more.

It’s safe to say that Long Beach residents are deeply involved in their community, whether it’s politics, the environment or the schools. The city’s residents m continue to give back to their hometown, whether it be through beach and canal c cleanups, rebuilding efforts, or boardwalk races to support displaced storm victims c or o wounded military servicemen and women. Each year, thousands dash into the frigid waters with the Long Beach Polar Bears for the Make-A-Wish Foundation, fr while the local Mustaches for Kids crew grows mustaches to raise money to help w fight pediatric cancer. And, of course, there is the annual Michelle O’Neill Volleyball fi Tournament, one of the most popular events of the year.

T So grab a board and ride a wave, fly through the air on a trapeze overlooking the th ocean, go for a bike ride, take in the sights while stand-up paddleboarding, or go kite-boarding, fishing or kayaking. Long Beach is an ideal recreational getaway that’s close to home.

Kristie Arden/Herald

Thousands of volleyball players and spectators packed the beach last fall for the annual Michelle O’Neill Volleyball Tournament.

The Long Beach boardwalk in the 1930s.

Long Beach is one of the older, more established communities on Long Island. In 1880, the first Long /RQJ %HDFK +LVWRULFDO 6RFLHW\ 0XVHXP Beach Hotel was built, and the area continued to 226 West Penn St. grow at a steady pace — the railroad arrived in 1882 (516) 432-1192 promoting Long Beach as a resort community for www.longbeachhistory.org vacationers. or www.facebook.com/LongBeachHistoricalSociety Modern Long Beach was conceived in 1906 Sundays from 1-4 p.m.,

by Sen. William H. Reynolds; he had a vision for a or by appointment from April-Dec. planned community and saw what Long Beach could become: an unrivaled seaside resort. During World War I, however, his “Estates of Long Beach” concept met with financial failure, leaving large summer homes vacant.

Still, Reynolds’s dream and accomplishments — he built many of the early homes and structures in town, including the boardwalk — set the stage for what Long Beach would eventually become. By the 1930s, Long Beach had evolved into a year-round community.

The Long Beach Historical Society’s museum at 226 W. Penn St. — one of the original estates Photo courtesy Doug Sheer of Long Beach — is complete with The original boardwalk being built. The city replaced that wooden structure with a exhibits and guides who can speak concrete walkway in the 1920s, but in 1937 it dedicated a new wooden span, which survived a major hurricane and stood for 75 years. about the city’s history in detail.

HISTORICAL T I M E L I N E

• 1643 Sachem Tackapausha bartered with Hempstead settlers to share the ‘long white sandy beach.” The land was used by local Long Island baymen for fishing and farmers for grazing and harvesting salt hay.

• 1797 The naming of our island on Stewart’s map.

• 1837 The Mexico capsizes and sinks off of Long Beach Island, killing 62 people.

• 1849 U.S. Coast guard erects a life-saving station.

• 1869 Davenport (Deb) Wright, an oysterman, became the first resident when he built a bay house near what is now New York Ave. • 1880 The construction of the largest seaside resort in the world, the original Long Beach Hotel.

• 1906 The entrance on our shores of visionary masterbuilder Senator William H. Reynolds.

• 1907 The Long Beach Hotel burns down. Senator Reynolds builds the first boardwalk in Long Beach, wooden walkway spanning 2.2 miles, from New York Ave, to Neptune Blvd. Local lore claimed that elephants built the boardwalk.

Although they were used to knock down some local shacks and haul lumber, it was mainly a publicity stunt.

• 1908 William Reynolds hired the Atlantic Gulf and Pacific Co. to dredge the Channel that now bears his name in order to have better access for ships and to convert hundreds of acres of march into solid ground for the new city of Long Beach. Construction of the Estates of Long Beach signals the beginning of Long Beach as a planned community.

• 1909 The house that is now home to the Long Beach Historical Society was built. The New Nassau Hotel, now renamed the Ocean Club, opens at National Blvd. It was followed by the Brighton Hotel, now the site of the Aqua at Lincoln Blvd., and the Ocean Crest Hotel, now the Hoffman Manor at Laurelton.

• 1912 Long Beach becomes an incorporated village • 1914 Long Beach dedicates its first school.

• 1915 Lido Golf Course is designed.

• 1931 William Reynolds dies at the age of 62. The body of Starr Faithull, an American socialite, is found washed up on shore in Long Beach. It was ruled a drowning, but there was evidence that might have indicated foul play. The mystery was never solved.

• 1937-38 A new wooden boardwalk is dedicated. The new boardwalk survived a major hurricane and remained standing for 75 years.

• 1939 Mayor Louis F. Edwards is fatally shot by Alvin Dooley on Jackson Boulevard, which was renamed Edwards Boulevard in his honor.

• 1944 Long Beach changes its form of government from a having a mayor to having a city manager.

• 1940-’50s Because of the advent of cheap air travel and air-conditioning people traveled to more distant places and Long Beach became primarily a bedroom community.

• 1964 The old City Hall Clock Tower comes down and is replaced with the current building.

• 1967 The Martin Luther King Jr. Community Center is founded. After Dr. King’s death, it was renamed The Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Center • 1960s-’70s Long Beach hit economic hard times. The rundown boardwalk hotels were used for temporary housing for welfare recipients and the elderly until a scandal around 1970 led to many of the homes losing their licenses. At that time, government agencies were also placing mental patients into the hotels.

• 1974 The New York Rangers signed to practice at the skating rink on Magnolia Boulevard.

• 1980 The Long Beach Historical Society was founded.

• 1980s The city’s political leaders used real estate tax incentives to get many absentee landlords to sell their depressed oceanfront properties. Wrecking balls met with rundown buildings to make way for the condominiums and apartment buildings that line the boardwalk today.

• 1996 An Army Corps of Engineers coastal protection plan for Long Beach receives federal approval, but is rejected by the city a decade later. In 2013, in the wake of Hurricane Sandy, the city approved a revised Corps project.

• 2001 Hundreds of residents crowd West Bay Drive along Reynolds Channel and other parts of the city, where they watched in horror smoke billowing from the World Trade Center during the attacks of 9/11. Seven Long Beach residents died that day, and many firefighters and first responders from the area developed, and later died from, illnesses from working on “the pile.”

• 2009 The Allegria Hotel opens, the first hotel built on the boardwalk at National Boulevard in decades.

• 2011 Tropical Storm Irene causes significant damage and forces the evacuation of residents from the barrier island.

The Quiksilver Pro New York surfing competition, nearly canceled after Irene, goes on and attracts thousands of spectators to Long Beach.

• 2012 Hurricane Sandy devastates Long Beach, displaces thousands of residents, destroys the boardwalk and shutters the Long Beach Medical Center.

• 2013 The city continues its recovery efforts, marks the reopening of a new boardwalk. Many residents return home and rebuild, though many still face a long road ahead as they deal with insurance and federally funded programs like NY Rising.

• 2014 After decades of political wrangling and litigation, the zoning board approves a developer’s plan to build two 160foot tall apartment towers on the long-vacant Superblock. A proposed 20-year tax abatement sparks residents’ ire.

• 2015-16 South Nassau Communities Hospital establishes an emergency department at the former Long Beach Medical Center campus and announces plans to build a Medical Arts Pavilion. City announces more food options at new concession stands along the boardwalk, after decades of limited amenities.

WARRIORS

The Long Beach Waterfront Warriors hosts one of the most popular parades and boardwalk races in July, as well as numerous fundraisers throughout the year to provide a trip to Long Beach in the summer for soldiers who are undergoing treatment at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.

The trip to Long Beach is arranged with Walter Reed so that recuperating soldiers and their families can have some well-deserved leisure time that includes fishing trips, surf lessons and other beach events, barbecues and a visit to New York City.

With the cooperation of the city of Long Beach, the LBWW’s will hold its annual 5K Race for the Soldiers on the boardwalk at New York Avenue on July 17 beginning at 8 a.m. Later that day, the annual Welcome Parade will take place at 3 p.m., from Ohio Avenue to New York Avenue along Beech Street. Bring the entire family out to salute these heroes! Parade is followed by a BBQ at Long Beach Catholic Regional School. All are invited.

Since 2009, the LBWW’s have provided wounded, ill and injured soldiers and veterans with the visit to Long Beach along with emergency medical evaluations, educational support and other important services. With the help of volunteers and donations, the organization has sent hundreds of holiday care packages to soldiers overseas each December. For

oBi Long Beach is about the hit the streets for the 2016 season! For the second year, SoBi bikes will be available for rent up and down the boardwalk and across the city.

The official launch takes place on May 27, just in time for Memorial Weekend. This season, there are a few pricing updates for users: season pricing will remain at $50 with an hour of riding per day included with the membership and Pay As You Go hourly rates will be $8 (prorated to the minute).

Seasonal and hourly membership subscribers can now place multiple rentals on the same credit card, up to six bikes per account, which means you can cruise around town with your friends. Visit www.sobilongbeach.com for more details or use the Long Beach Response App to sign up.

Long Beach is known for having some of the best breaks and, in 2011, the city hosted the Quiksilver Pro New York — the first Association of Surfing Professionals world tour event ever held on the East Coast.

Long Beach has long been a town with a rich surfing culture and active surf community, and throughout the year, there are numerous events and professional surfing contests that attract hundreds of spectators to the city, such as the Unsound Pro and NYSEA’s annual Surf Week.

The surfing community is also well known for its environmental advocacy and numerous fundraisers,

whether it’s beach and canal cleanups organized by the Surfrider Foundation or the Long Beach Surfers’ Association, surf outings for kids and adults with developmental disabilities by the non-profit Surf for All, or Unsound Surf Shop’s annual art show in June that raises money for local organizations.

And, of course, with two surf schools in the city — Skudin Surf and Surf2Live — kids and adults alike can grab a board and learn how to ride a wave, or simply get involved and experience the community’s Aloha spirit!

Led by Elliot Zuckerman, Surf2Live has provided surf camps in Long Beach for 18 years.

PARKS You might say Long Beach is one big park. After all, its beautiful beach is referred to as the “Ocean Beach Park.” But Long Beach also has numerous children's playgrounds that dot the entire city. During the summer, parks are staffed with recreation staff who supply cold water, sidewalk chalk, jump ropes and more. They also are there to make sure that all of the equipment is in working order. The Department of Parks and Recreation will once again provide Family Fun in the Park this summer in rotating parks throughout the season. The program features family-friendly activities, shows, games and more. Visit longbeachny.gov/rec for more information.

PLAYGROUNDS Playground facilities are located at: • Georgia Avenue* and West Beech Street; • Magnolia Boulevard and the Boardwalk; • Pacific Boulevard* and Shore Road; • Park Place* and West Hudson Street; • Clark Street* at Reynolds Channel; • Veterans Park located on the Recreation Department Campus on Magnolia Boulevard and West Bay Drive. (* notes playgrounds equipped with a splash component that is active in the summer when weather permits).

SKATE PARKS

Iggy Mulqueen performed a trick on the lip of the park.

Long Beach officially marked the grand opening of its new skate park last year with its first Bowl-a-Rama Skate Jam Contest, presented by Skudin Surf.

The skate park was designed by California-based firm Spohn Ranch, which utilized input gathered form Long Beach residents and skaters at two public engagement meetings held earlier this year to construct a park tailored to the wishes of local skaters. The structure was designed to accommodate skaters of all ages and skill levels.

The new park is located on National Boulevard at the bay, closer to the Recreation Center than the previous one on Magnolia Boulevard. It is open daily from 7 a.m. until 10 p.m.

The old park was significantly damaged

by Hurricane Sandy and many in the skateboarding community have called it outdated.

The new park has switched from modular ramps to concrete ones that require less maintenance, among other improvements.

The new park includes an amoeba bowl, a combination horseshoe bowl and mini-ramp, a speed hump and numerous handrails and stairs. Its approximately Maureen Lennon/Herald 15,000-square-foot L-shape more than bowl at the new skate doubled the size of the old park, officials said.

GRAB A BITE T he dining options in Long Beach are limitless, whether it’s a view of the Atlantic Ocean at the posh Allegria Hotel or grabbing some good ol’ barbecue at Swingbellys in the bustling West End. This summer, there will be a wider variety of food concessions along the beach and boardwalk than ever before, providing residents and visitors with an abundance of choices in convenient locations. After a successful season last summer, the food truck court — The Shoregasboard — will return, along with the stationary and mobile carts on the beach and boardwalk. Whether you’re craving a taco, a stacked sandwich or some ice cream to cool off after a long day at the beach, there are plenty of dining options available along the boardwalk and around the city.

New this year will be five comfort stations selling a variety of meal and snack options at Grand, National, Edwards and Lincoln boulevards, as well as a state-of-the-art surf center at Riverside Boulevard. The comfort stations will be open from Memorial Day to Labor Day, and sample menus can be found at www.LongBeachLife.com. The food truck court will see the return of local businesses

T

he Department of Economic Development and Planning’s mission is to encourage economic sustainability and growth in the city of Long Beach by supporting local businesses and attracting new ones, creating jobs, as well as improving the city’s overall quality of life through the integration of resiliency into policy and practice.

The department seeks out funding for the city in support of this mission.

Created in 2013, the department is responsible for economic development in support of the business community, the Long Beach Local Development Corporation (LDC), planning, many city grants, marketing, and support for the newly formed arts council. It also works on environmental issues such as remediating brownfields, protection of the Lloyd Aquifer and implementing complete streets policies, which include the creation of bike lanes to foster a healthier, safer and less auto dependent community.

Economic Development works on several initiatives to help local businesses and residents. Some of the major initiatives over the past year have included marketing, new grants for the city, business seminars, the installation of a bike share program, and the update to the comprehensive plan.

The department also launched the Long Beach Local View video series, which spotlights local businesses by creating a 1-2 minute customized videos. Visit the city’s official Facebook page or www. longbeachlife.com to view the segments.

Economic Development and Planning also provides a business support seminar series. The main goals of these seminars are to: • Aid local businesses; • Learn about available support with one-on-one advice from experts in specific fields; • Share innovative ideas; • Use innovative ways to leverage technology for success; • Network with fellow Long

In 2015, the city partnered with Social Bicycles to bring a new bike share program to Long Beach.

Beach business owners.

Previous seminar topics have included: grant information, small business development, loans, energy audits, technology integration, marketing and events.

The outcomes of these seminars include an increase in online presence, applying for grant funding, and collaborative partnerships.

In 2015, the city partnered with Social Bicycles to bring a new bike share program to Long Beach. In its first season, SoBi had more than 9,000 members sign up, which was the fastest uptake of any system in the country! Bike rack locations were strategically placed around the city, with several on the boardwalk as that is the most preferred recreational bike route during the summer season. SoBi will be back for its second season this Memorial Day weekend, with

a significant increase in the number of bicycles.

The city was awarded state funding to update its Comprehensive Plan, which will be implemented to include longterm and short-term recommendations. Major focuses of the comprehensive plan include downtown revitalization, transit-oriented development, and economic and resiliency opportunities.

The updated plan also takes into account climate adaptation, sustainability and resiliency, social health and well-being and a regional strength, weakness, opportunity and threat (SWOT) analysis. For more information and a calendar of city events, please visit www.longbeachlife. com

The city’s 2016 marketing campaign looks to promote the value of the community and businesses, help merchants year round, and promote off-season activities. In addition to traditional advertising, the marketing campaigns have also included: • LIRR and boardwalk business directory • Trolley map and business brochure • 100,000 Herald map guide LIRR seat drop • Bus and boardwalk advertisements • City summer guide • LIRR summer kickoff event • L.B.

BASIC RULES

Beach

OF THE

Christina Daly/Herald

• New rule! Smoking is no longer permitted on the beach, boardwalk, parks and other recreational areas in the city. Anyone observed smoking by police or summer special officers may be given a warning or issued a summons and fine ranging from $50 to $500.

The smoking ban applies to cigarettes, cigars and pipes. It also applies to electronic cigarettes, vaping and any device that creates aerosol or vapor. Smoking areas are still available in parking lots and areas off the beach and the boardwalk.

• Beaches close at 6 p.m. However, this year, beaches will remain open on Saturdays and Sundays until 7 p.m. in July and early August. Lifeguards will also remain on duty during that additional hour. Swimming is prohibited when lifeguards are not on duty!

• People are not permitted on the beach between 11 p.m. and 5 a.m.

• Learn to swim and never swim alone.

• Only swim when lifeguards are on duty.

• Lifeguards are on duty, weather permitting, from 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. weekends only from May 24-June 15 (including Memorial Day Monday), and daily from June 21-Sept.1. Beach passes are required when lifeguards are on duty.

• Always go to the beach with an adult, and swim in front of the lifeguard between the green flags that define the swimming area.

• If you are in trouble, call out for help and wave your arms above your head. Do not panic.

• Do not hesitate to call a lifeguard for help in any medical situation on the sand or in the water.

• Stay off the rock jetties and never swim near them.

• Check water conditions with lifeguards for undercurrents or sandbars. Both can be dangerous.

• Report dangerous situations to a lifeguard.

• Check the depth of underwater surface by jumping or walking, not diving head-first!

• Do not attempt to make any rescue yourself. Get a lifeguard — they are trained to do the job. Do not interfere with lifeguards making a rescue.

• When you hear the whistle, look at the lifeguard chair. They may want your attention.

• Surfing is permitted on specific beaches. Visit longbeachny.gov/beach for surfing, concert and event schedules.

FOR YOUR SAFETY PLEASE REMEMBER • No alcoholic beverages are permitted on the beach or the boardwalk.

• No bonfires or barbecues are permitted on the beach or on the boardwalk.

• Swimming is prohibited without a lifeguard on duty.

• No animals are permitted on the beach or boardwalk.

• No glass on the beach.

• All body boards must have a leash cord attached.

• The rider must use leash cord.

• A parent or guardian must watch all children.

• Flotation devices such as inflatable tubes and water wings are strictly prohibited.

• Body board use: It is at the discretion of the lifeguards to restrict body boards (distance from shore, number permitted and rough water or other conditions).

• Listen to lifeguards' instructions.

• The use of body boards and surfboards in the same bathing area is prohibited.

These safety regulations have been established to allow for the enjoyment of our patrons. They in no way imply that the use of body boards or surfboards are safe and will not result in injury.

TROLLEY!

T

he city’s Department of Transportation is responsible for all bus service within the City of Long Beach and Point Lookout. This department establishes rates, schedules and routes.

All buses are wheelchair accessible.

All city buses remain within the city, with the exception of the Point Lookout route that travels from the LIRR station in Long Beach to Point Lookout. The City operates this line on behalf of Transdev for Nassau County.

The fare for Long Beach buses is $2.25. It costs $2.75 to ride the Nassau County buses and the Point Lookout bus. The Long Beach bus system operates from 5 a.m. to 11 p.m., with night service until 4 am.

The bus system covers over 90 percent of the city, and there are approximately 30,000 passengers per month. The city also operates an ADA paratransit bus system and costs $1.00 per ride.

Courtesy City of Long Beach

Long Beach’s open-air trolley provides a unique — and fun — mode of transportation in the summer. Trolley service is also free with beach pass purchases.

Passengers must schedule the ride 24 hours in advance and ridership is steadily increasing.

The city will be updating trolley routes to provide more accessibility for residents and their families and friends. This may help spur growth for local businesses in the Park Avenue and West Beech Street commercial districts.

The Long Island Rail Road provides passenger transportation from its renovated terminal in the downtown area to other stations on Long Island and New York City.

Commuting time to Manhattan is approximately 55 minutes. Visit www.lirr42.mta.info or @LIRR on Twitter for updates.

The district also offers a pre-Kindergarten program and an Adult Learning Center that provides resources for adults and families in the community.

At the elementary level, IB Learner Profile principles are highlighted through the SPIRIT program. The number of IB Diploma candidates has grown each year and approximately 60 students are completing the full program in the Class of 2016.

The schools integrate literacy and STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) throughout the curriculum in order to prepare students for success.

he Long Beach Martin Luther King Center Inc. is a grassroots community organization dedicated to improving the health, educational attainment, human welfare and opportunities for youth, adults and families in Long Beach.

The Long Beach Martin Luther King Center Inc. is a 501(c)(3) charitable tax-exempt organization serving children, individuals and families in the City of Long Beach, and greater Nassau County, since 1998.

Designated as the hub of the North Park residential area, the MLK Center is committed to develop innovative programming and maintaining and improving the well-being of youth, adults and seniors.

The MLK Center traces its origins to 1967, when local African American community organizers began to develop an institution they could call their own. In 1981, completion of the MLK Community Center occurred simultaneously with the development of new MLK Center programs. For more than 40 years, the total programming package of the MLK Center has been a mixture of community activism, urban culture, traditional southern experience, and the traditional experiences of Caribbean American, Hispanic and Central American immigrants who have become a growing part of the North Park community.

LONG BEACH GUIDE

TOWN & COUNTY NASSAU COUNTY

TOWN OF HEMPSTEAD

ong Beach became a city in 1922, but it is also part of Nassau County and certain county services and facilities are available to Long Beach residents. In fact, barrier island residents who live outside the city limits — in East Atlantic Beach to the west and Lido Beach and Point Lookout to the east — depend on them.

Nassau is governed by an elected Legislature that was formed in January 1996. The Legislature’s 19 districts enable constituents to have greater access to their elected representatives. It includes an independent budget director who advises the Legislature on spending and revenue matters.

The legislature also enables residents to submit petitions for proposed new laws that legislators are obligated to consider.

The legislators serve two-year terms. The Fourth District includes the City of Long Beach, Atlantic Beach, East Atlantic Beach, Lido Beach and Point Lookout.

The county executive — currently Edward Mangano — serves a four-year term and is the chief administrator.

The Town of Hempstead is the largest township in the United States with over 142 square miles, a population of approximately 725,000, 34 unincorporated areas, 22 incorporated villages, over 65 parks and marinas and 2,500 miles of city, county and state roads.

In 1643, two Englishmen, John Carman and the Reverend Robert Fordham, traveled from Connecticut across the Long Island Sound to Long Island. They represented a group of settlers who wished to purchase from the Indians (the Reuckowacky, the Merockes, the Matinecock, and the Massapequas), the current Towns of Hempstead and North Hempstead. In 1644, the Town of Hempstead was founded when a patent was obtained from William Kieft, the Dutch Governor of New Amsterdam. The name Hempstead seems to derive from Hemel-Hempstead in Great Britain, which means town spot.

Hempstead grew steadily in the 1800s and by 1855 it was the most populous town in Queens County with just under 10,500 people. The town, along with the rest of Long Island, supplied the greater metropolitan area with a multitude of farm products and provided abundant recreational opportunities including seashore resorts, fox hunting, polo and horse racing. The population peaked at just over 800,000 in 1970, and is now levelled at approximately 725,000.

Today, on the Long Beach barrier island, the Town of Hempstead encompasses Point Lookout and Lido Beach to the east and East Atlantic Beach and Atlantic Beach to the west. The Town maintains two marinas in Point Lookout as well as several beach parks.

Hempstead Town has seven elected board members.

HEALTHY AGING

by JONATHAN ECKSTEIN, D.O.

Whether you’re concerned about weight gain, chronic diseases or sex drive, the key to healthy aging is a healthy lifestyle. Eating a variety of healthy foods, practicing portion control and including physical activity into your daily routine all go a long way to promote healthy aging. And it’s never too late to make healthier lifestyle choices. There are no quick fixes for healthier aging, so be cautious with supplements or expensive treatments.

then reverting back to an unhealthy lifestyle. A gym is not a necessity to create a healthy lifestyle.

Adding just 30-50 minutes per week of exercise can help to make these changes more visual as we tend to look at our bodies. Some simple changes such as parking at the furthest spot available and walking this distance to the mall, the library or the grocery store can add up to 15-30 minutes per week.

As you get older, good nutrition plays an important role in how well you age. A low-salt, low-fat diet with fruits and vegetables can reduce age-related risks for disease. Protein is necessary to maintain and rebuild muscles. Try to integrate a variety of lean protein sources such as poultry, fish, and eggs or egg substitutes. We utilize carbohydrates as our body’s preferred source of energy; however, you should avoid simple sugars and concentrated sweets, especially drinks and foods with added sugar. Fat also provides energy, but you should limit the saturated fats from meats, butter and cheese. Poly- and mono-unsaturated fats from corn oil, olive oil, avocados and nuts are a preferred alternate to keep cholesterol levels lower.

A muscle reconditioning program or regimen can help you stay at a healthy weight as muscle cells are the major calorie burners in our body. Take the stairs for 1 or 2 flights before waiting for the elevator.

Or consider a reconditioning program at the local community center. And chair exercise classes are a great way to start off exercising if you haven’t been moving regularly. Just make sure to drink plenty of water to replace water lost through activity.

By following some basic dietary changes, overall improved health can be achieved. Keep in mind that these changes should be looked at as lifestyle modifications that will benefit you moving forward.

A common mistake is dieting to lose weight and

The key to healthy aging is to make the lifestyle changes. No quick fixes. No magical pills. Better eating and a basic exercise regimen.
