Supervisor’s Weekly Update
It was an honor to attend the Ossining and Briarcliff Memorial Day Ceremonies over the weekend.
Thank you Ossining Fire Department, Michael G O Connor and Briarcliff and Ossining VFW Posts for organizing these events.
The portion of the ceremony that means the most to me is reading of the names of all of the Service Members from our community who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom.
Thank you to the Ossining Girl Scouts for the amazing wreaths you made, The Boy Scouts for helping with the reading of the names, the OHS Band for the musical accompaniments, OPD, OFD, OVAC, The Elks, OBCC, and all of the others who marched or helped
to make these event possible.
Students on the EAC will have the opportunity to learn about meaningful environmental issues and explore town policies, such as the protection of our trees, wetlands and other natural resources.
The EAC meets monthly where student participation is encouraged. M.S. and H.S. members are given opportunities to create impactful, self-driven projects. All volunteer work counts towards community service hours.
If you are a 6th-10th grader from Anne M. Dorner Middle School or Ossining High School and are interested in joining the EAC, please submit a letter with your contact information, and reasons for wanting to join the committee to Mitzi Elkes, Town of Ossining EAC Chairperson, .
