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.

A new independent bookstore, Book RePort, will open its doors on May 15, 2026, bringing books, coffee, and community programming to the heart of Port Washington. Founded by local residents Mara Silverstein and Kathleen Schechter, Book RePort was created in response to the closure of a beloved neighborhood bookstore that once served as a gathering place for the community. What began as a shared desire among residents to bring a bookstore back to town evolved into a grassroots effort and, ultimately, into a new business built on that collective energy. “Book RePort is more than a bookstore,” said Silverstein. “It’s a space for connection, conversation, and community. We wanted to create a place where people feel welcome to spend time, discover books, and engage with one another.”The 1,500-square-foot store, located at 40 Main Street, will feature a curated selection of books for all ages, a small café serving coffee and tea, and a thoughtfully selected assortment of games, stationery, and gifts. The space will also host regular programming, including children’s storytime, book clubs for all ages, author events, community gatherings, and private events.
















Schechter, who brings a background in literacy and a deep passion for children’s literature, emphasized the importance of creating an accessible and engaging environment for young readers. “We want kids to feel just as much ownership of this space as adults,” she said. “Books can be a powerful way to build confidence, curiosity, and connection. As part of that commitment, we are launching our ‘Book RePorters’ program, a youth council for students in grades 3 and up that will empower our youngest leaders to help shape the books we carry.”









Book RePort is the only independent bookstore within approximately 15 miles and is positioned to serve not only Port Washington but also the surrounding communities. Located less than 45 minutes from Manhattan and one block from the train station, the store aims to become a destination for author events and literary programming.



Book RePort has demonstrated strong community support, with a base of founding members and a series of pre-opening events that have drawn audiences ranging from intimate gatherings to crowds of over 200 attendees.


A grand opening weekend is planned for May 15–17 and will include special events, programming, and opportunities for the community to experience the space.
