Crescent Beach Opening - Legislator Delia DeRiggi-Whitton

On Friday, City of Glen Cove Office of the Mayor and I will be holding a press conference at Crescent Beach to announce that after 17 losing years, Crescent Beach will once again be open for swimming- and we would love for YOU to join us to mark this special occasion!

Crescent Beach is a staple of our Glen Cove community, where I myself once taught swimming lessons! Generations of our neighbors have made and shared memories here, and Friday marks the opportunity for a new generation to experience this beautiful treasure right in our backyard.

I would like to thank the Mayors of Glen Cove, who for 17 years, regardless of party, have all worked to make this day possible, along with my colleagues from the Glen Cove city council, and now at the Nassau County Legislature. This collaborative effort would not have been complete, though, without the cooperation and investment of the local residents around Crescent Beach, who were instrumental in helping make the improvements necessary to combat the runoff issue that has plagued us for so long.

This is a personally impactful day for me, as a Glen Cove resident, former lifeguard and city councilwoman, and as a Legislator for Glen Cove, that we have been able to bring this beautiful piece of our community back to a state all of our residents can truly fully enjoy, for this summer and so many to come. I hope to see you all this Friday to mark this fabulous occasion!
