On Saturday, June 15, 2024, Lindenhurst Mayor Michael A. Lavorata & the Village Board of Trustees, along with Village Historian Anna Jaeger, Suffolk County Legislature Presiding Officer Kevin J. McCaffrey, Town of Babylon Deputy Supervisor Antonio Martinez, Town Councilman Anthony Manetta, and a crowd of residents, young and old, closed out the Village’s 100th Anniversary Celebration with the dedication of the Village of Lindenhurst Centennial Bell. After a brief ceremony, everyone in attendance was given the opportunity to ring the bell. One resident exclaimed before enthusiastically taking his turn, “God Bless Lindenhurst!”
The Village purchased the cast bronze bell, which was forged in Holland, from the renowned Verdin Company, as a symbol of the Lindenhurst community’s enduring spirit and unity. It is inscribed with the words “Celebrating 100 years of resiliency and strength in our Village – past, present, and future.” and is on display on the lawn of Village Hall at 430 South Wellwood Avenue.
