Glen Cove celebrates Snapper Derby More than 50 children came out to the Pryibil Beach Fishing Pier for the Glen Cove Anglers Club’s 2019 Mayor’s Snapper Derby on Aug. 17. The annual event invites Glen Cove’s youth to a friendly fish- ing contest to see who can catch the biggest snapper. Angler Club Commodore Sal Groe said the event was now more than 60 years old and that he had fond memories of his own child- hood days at the Snapper Derby. Although this year’s contest had a lower turnout than usual, people were still excited to come out, some for the first time in a long time.
