July 12th, 2024: Tonight’s summer concert has been cancelled due to inclement weather. The safety and comfort of our attendees, performers, and staff are our top priorities, and with the forecast predicting heavy rain throughout the evening, we have made the difficult decision to cancel the event. Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

GIRL SCOUTS INSTALL A LITTLE FOOD PANTRY AT LINDENHURST RAINBOW SENIOR CENTER
Girl Scout Troop 3823 has taken up a first-of-its-kind Bronze Award Project in the Lindenhurst community by installing a “Little Food Pantry” at the Rainbow Senior Citizens Community Center.
The Little Food Pantry, which applies the community library concept to food donations, will assist our neighbors who may be dealing with food insecurity by helping them stock their pantries with dry goods and canned goods. Operating on the honor system, the food items are intended for those in genuine need. While the Girl Scout Troop will monitor and continue to supply food items, it also encourages residents of Lindenhurst to donate food items. Dry goods and canned goods can be dropped off at the Rainbow Center, located at 293 Buffalo Avenue, Lindenhurst.
Mayor Michael Lavorata said, “The Little Food Pantry is a fantastic idea and will be a blessing to many individuals and families. I thank Troop 3823 for their hard work and for this contribution to our Lindenhurst community.”

LINDENHURST STATION ALERT FROM THE LIRR
Starting July 15th, the LIRR will be taking both the escalator and adjoining stairs out of service at the Lindenhurst Station. The escalator will be out of service for approximately 3 weeks while the stairs will be out of service for 3 days (coming back into service on July 18th).
This is to correct the ramp that leads up to the escalator itself, which is at a gradient that is not compliant with the latest ADA standards and also to replace those railings. While it is out of service, passengers can use either staircase to the west or east, or of course, the brand new elevator!
