This post was written by Pam Robinson.

Members of the Huntington Township Chamber of Commerce will be heading to a luau at Crab Meadow Beach.

The July 31 event features food, drinks, raffles and networking opportunities and runs from 6 to 10 p.m.

The band “Peter Mazzeo and the Hit Squad” will perform. The “Luau at Sunset” provides Long Island's business leaders the opportunity to mingle with the community members and residents while being able to network and socialize. 

Sweet Hollow Park Detailed

Huntington Supervisor Frank P. Petrone recently reviewed elements for the new Sweet Hollow Park, based on input submitted by more than 70 members of the community.

Speaking before the Civic Association of Sweet Hollow June 24, Supervisor Petrone said the park design will incorporate a multi-ability playground, tennis courts, bocce courts, game tables, covered areas, walking/running/bicycle paths, benches and picnic tables. A garden is possible, if a local garden club will help to maintain it, as is a sculpture that could incorporate the history of the area. The Town’s Trails Committee will consider the site for potential on-leash dog walking. 

The main entrance to the park will be on Old Country Road, and a new crosswalk will be designated near the Knolls at Melville senior living complex for a pedestrian entrance on Round Swamp Road (the park is at the intersection of Old Country and Round Swamp Roads).
