North Shore Historical Museum

A lecture with Glen Cove Historian Dave NieriLong Island’s Revolutionary War story wasn’t fought only on distant battlefields — it unfolded in farmhouses, taverns, coves, and crossroads across our own North Shore. Join Glen Cove historian Dave Nieri for an illuminating look at how ordinary Long Islanders navigated extraordinary pressures during America’s fight for independence.Nieri’s presentation, Long Island During the Revolutionary War, explores the daily realities of a region caught between British occupation and Patriot resistance. Through local accounts, maps, and community histories, he reveals how families balanced survival with principle, how neighbors found themselves on opposite sides of the conflict, and how the war reshaped the social and economic landscape of the North Shore.This program offers a grounded, human view of the Revolution — one that highlights resilience, divided loyalties, and the difficult choices faced by those living in the shadow of war.We invite you to join us for an evening of insight, storytelling, and local history brought vividly to life.

Learn the Skills, Love the Sport, Swim for Life!

Long Island Swim School

Long Island Swim School is the teaching arm of the nationally ranked Long Island Aquatic Club. Our Learn to Swim programs create strong, safe, and confident swimmers for life. With locations in Garden City and Syosset we train over 2,000 children each week at every swim level from Beginner to Olympian. Long Island Swim School offers swim lessons for children ages 2 - 14years old. The main emphasis of our programs is to teach children to swim correctly and develop essential water skills in a relaxed environment. Our goal driven and technique oriented approach is the key to your child's success. Through skill based quality teaching our students develop a joy for learning and a passion for swimming. At Long Island Swim School, we teach children to swim the same way the best in the world do. By using age-appropriate, proven techniques children build real skills in kick, pull, body position, and breath control. Our logical, consistent progression turns every fundamental—whether blowing bubbles or learning butterfly timing—into a building block for efficient, confident swimming. Our professional staff are swimmers and coaches with the knowledge to give your child the skills to achieve more than just water safety. We provide the best foundation possible for success. Not every child will dream of Olympic glory, but every child should have the foundation to take them there. Whether the end goal is a competitive journey or a recreational one, whether your child competes in 2044 or they are happy playing in their home pool, the skills they learn at Long Island Swim School will take them as far as their dreams allow.
