Town of Oyster Bay to host all abilities job fair in October (liherald.com) — Oyster Bay residents looking for work or a career change can meet inclusive employers at the 2026 Talent Connection Job Expo on Oct. 5 at the town's Ice Skating Center in Bethpage.

2. Friends of the Bay drops 20,000 clams into Oyster Bay to restore shellfish populations (news12.com) — Right in Oyster Bay's sanctuary waters, 20,000 adult hard clams were released Friday to boost shellfish populations and naturally filter the bay.

3. After 25 years, the North Shore never forgot (liherald.com) — Residents in Oyster Bay, Sea Cliff, and Locust Valley are keeping 9/11 memories alive through solemn ceremonies, music, and classroom lessons tailored to a new generation.

4. Courage of New Sailors (newportthisweek.com) — Young sailors trained through Oakcliff Sailing in Oyster Bay are crewing the famed 12‑meter yacht Courageous in this weekend's North American championship in Newport.

5. Sea Cliff set to hold second annual triathlon (liherald.com) — Sea Cliff's second annual triathlon is returning this month, with the Town of Oyster Bay helping support operations at nearby Tappen Beach.
