Dear Community, Our next meeting will be on Monday, March 22, 7:00pm at the MC Selden Library. We will be discussing our new signs, our new street signs and our new flags for the telephone poles. We have been working on collecting funds to enhance Middle Country Road. This spring will be exciting to see everything come together on our Main Street. Please excuse our website is going to be reconstructed and we will have a new look .
Selden Civic and the Selden Girl Scout Troops join together for many projects. Clean ups, enhancements and civic minded outreach in the community. We look forward to getting to work and starting a new year.
Please remember this is January which is sign up time for our membership or renewal of membership. Please come out to support us.
We have meet with the DOT again to discuss safety and enhancements to Middle Country Rd. We have good news we do have the DOT (Department of Transportation) coming back to Selden to do several changes to our portion of the Rd. We will be giving you updates of what we expect to see.
Each year we collect food for the Selden Centereach Youth Association food pantry. We also will be collecting new toys and warm coats. Please give what ever you can to help our community members in need. Thank you for you help this year we do have a great need and we need you assistance. thank you again....Family Farm House has had a fire. We do not have much news yet but hope to have more answers of the damage soon. We have reached out to the town to see if they may be willing to restore and repair the damages. Assemblywoman Ginny Fields will also be attending to give us an update from the state.
On August 28th we had our Annual Selden Civic Family Pride Event-Movie Night in the Park-cartoons-movie started at sundown, at Liberty Park in Selden corner of Boyle Rd and Liberty Ave. This evening went well and a good time was had by all. Thanks for joining us we all enjoy the evening and the movie Kung Fu Panda.
We also will take this opportunity to Celebrate our Volunteers of the Year. We would like to first announce that our winners are Robert Lindsey, volunteer and veteran, Bob has been a volunteer in our community for many years working with other veterans in our community and our county; his dedication to our Country makes us very proud that Bob is part of our civic. Next we are honoring, Kelly Klien, volunteer and teacher, working with the students to organize them to good civic citizens, involving them in meet the candidates night to learn the issues, to working on Hobb's Farm and always part of our clean ups, working in our community to enhance and improve. Our last honoree is, Matthew Sharp, our volunteer student/Go Green Club founder and his club for making such a great showing for our Brookhaven Clean up day. These three individuals have made a difference in our community. They have worked to improve and enhance all of our lives through there hard work. We want to thank all of our volunteers for giving the gift of time but this year we will celebrate our honorees at our June 22 meeting. Please spread the word. We hope to see you at our Monday night.
Thank you to our Suffolk Country Legislator, Brian Beedenbender, for he secured a $5,000 grant to go towards community enhancements.
SC Legislator Beedenbender has also great news to share about the land in Selden adjacent to the College on College Rd. He will be proposing this 61 acre lot to be transformed into an active park that could include ball fields (baseball, football, lacrosse…), children’s play equipment, a passive walking park, restrooms and of course leaving green wooded areas for all to enjoy.
