Morning Rose Cafe in Bellmore has been in business for over a decade, and while the ownership has changed, the values haven’t: great food, great service, and a commitment to giving back to the community. Pleased to spotlight them as part of the Town of Hempstead’s Small Business Spotlight series!

Storm drains play an important role in protecting our waterways, and community involvement can help keep them clear of harmful pollutants. 🌊🐾 If you’re interested in helping spread the word about responsible storm drain use and pet waste disposal, consider joining the Town of Hempstead’s Storm Drain Medallion Program.

Soaking up the fun at the Wantagh Public Library’s summer reading party for the over 350 children who participated in the library’s summer reading program. Kids got to enjoy a bubble machine, ice cream, and games. Great to stop by with Legislator Kayla L. Knight and see how much fun the kids were having. Wonderful gift from the library to their young summer readers!
