What a perfect way to kick off the Smithtown Recreation Department’s Live Summer Music Series at Long Beach — and to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Village of Nissequogue!
I was proud to join Mayor Richard Smith, my colleagues in government, fellow elected officials, Village Chief of Police John Valentine, and the incredible Smithtown Parks Department team led by Joe Arico for a beautiful evening with the community.
A special thank you to Pat Farrell and the Cold Spring Harbor Band for a fantastic performance. To the incredibly talented Gia Cellucci who is New England Conservatory bound… you sang the most beautiful National Anthem! Great moments are ahead for this talented opera singer. Thank you to everyone who came out to make the first concert of the season such a memorable night!
