    Tappan Zee High School 15 Dutch Hill Road Orangeburg, New York 10962 TZHS PROJECT GRADUATION ‘16 April, 2016 Dear TZHS Parents/Guardians: Plans are in full swing for Tappan Zee High School’s Project Graduation ’16. This marks the 25th anniversary for Project Graduation - a supervised, substance free, all night party for graduates. The party will start at 11:30 p.m. Thursday night, June 23rd, 2016 and ends at 5:00 a.m. on Friday morning, June 24th. The celebration is held at Tappan Zee High School and is organized by the PTSA with help from the Senior Class. The evening’s plans are in the initial stages of planning and will include lots of music with great food, and a variety of activities such as volleyball, basketball, a video game area, ping pong and table games. In addition, we have contracted with an entertainment company for the DJ/karaoke, a jousting ring, an obstacle course, a comedian, and a photo booth. To make this celebration a memorable occasion, we need your support and financial backing. Last year’s celebration cost approximately $12,000. There are three ways that you may contribute. First, in addition to support from our community businesses, we still depend on our parents for financial contributions. We are asking that you consider a tax deductible monetary donation of $25, $50 or whatever your budget will allow. Simply go to http://tzhsptsa.org/TZHSProjectGraduation or complete the coupon on the next page. All checks should be made payable to “TZHS/PTSA Project Graduation ’16”. Secondly, if you are in a business where you are able to donate tickets to concerts, sporting events or a Broadway show, they would make wonderful prizes.

Kenny Board Denis Troy Paul Valentine A Message from the Supervisor Although we have all been living through some extraordinary times, with the summer finally here and hopefully COVID-19 in the rearview mirror, there is no better time to get out and enjoy the beautiful outdoors right here in Orangetown. While this year we still cannot offer all of the same programs that we have done in the past, our Orangetown Parks & Recreation Department has been hard at work to come up with a selection of fun family-oriented activ- ities for children, adults, and senior citizens of all fitness levels. Lead by Superintendent Aric Gorton, our staff's mission is to deliver quality, afford- able programming in, what is more important now than ever, a safe and healthy environment. I want to thank the entire Parks and Recreation Department for their con- tinued hard work and dedication to enhancing the quality of life here in Orangetown. As you read through this season’s brochure, please mark your calendars with all the activities you and your family will enjoy. With an excellent line up of programming and hundreds of acres of parks and trails that the Town and Rockland County have to offer, we hope you will take advantage of everything right in your backyard.

It’s one of the reasons that I love living here. From golf courses, soccer fields, playgrounds, and tennis courts to mountain forests and paved bike trails, Orangetown’s park system has it all. Summer is one of the most exciting times of year in Orangetown’s parks. Under the leadership of Superintendent Aric Gorton, our Parks & Recreation Department has put together an outstanding set of programs for kids, teens, and adults! Our two golf courses, the 27-hole Blue Hill and the 9-hole Broadacres, both now oper - ated successfully by Applied Golf, continue to draw faithful golf enthusiasts, while miles of trails and acres of open space call those seeking options for passive and active recre - ation. Explore the Nike Site – formerly a Nike Hercules radar tracking station for the U.S. gov - ernment – offering hiking, open space, and scenic views from atop Clausland Mountain. Take a stroll along a stream in Pascack Brook Park, play tennis at Independence Park, or shoot some hoops at Veterans Memorial Park. Swing, slide and climb with your children in one of the many playgrounds throughout town.

The Town of Orangetown Parks and Recreation Department prides itself upon keeping each park and other outdoor amenities safe and beautiful for everyone to enjoy. There is truly no better place to take in the foliage and the feeling of autumn than from the vantage point of one of our hundreds of acres and numerous trails within Orangetown’s extensive network of State, County, and Town parks here in the Lower Hudson Valley. We continue to thank the Parks Department for their continued focus on and com- mitment to offering excellent public programs and services and open space preser- vation, maintaining the natural beauty of our parks and recreational resources which enrich the quality of life here in Orangetown. The parks in our community, the quality of which we are continually striving to enhance, feature playgrounds, pavilions, paved trails, athletic fields and many other outdoor amenities. As we continue this improvement process, the Town will be adding new playground equipment at three of its playground locations before wintertime, including Cherry Brook Park (Pearl River), Sparkill Park (Sparkill), & Stoughton Park (Tappan).

  • Celebrating Our 46Th Year
    2019 Celebrating our 46th Year Honoring Phil Bogle George Coates Kristen McGarvey Miedreich Sherry Murphy McGill Tommy Rowe Todd Sinclair Bob Veltidi D CO Joseph Holland N UN Lifetime Achievement Award A T L Y K C O E R M S P A YEARS OF SPORTS F O EXCELLENCE R F 46T O S H ALL 4.13.19 2019 ROCKLAND COUNTY SPORTS HALL OF FAME Chairman’s Message – Pete Scheibner We celebrate our 46th Rockland County Sports Hall of Fame induction with a star-studded group of athletes who excelled in multiple sports: a former pro football player, a minor-league baseball player, two all-around athletes, a pair of track & field stars, and a longtime contributor to the Rockland sports community. Rockland County continues to produce outstanding athletes year after year, so there is no shortage of qualified candidates for future years. I would personally like to congratulate Bob Veltidi as a member of this year’s induction class for his outstanding contributions to our Rockland County Sports Hall of Fame committee as both screening committee chair and past master of ceremonies. Bob exemplifies what true service to sports and community are; we are pleased to honor him with the Joseph Holland Lifetime Achievement Award. Over the past year, sadly four of our past inductees died. Ed Matott Jr. was a 2016 inductee, an outstanding Nyack High School basketball coach who roamed the “pit” in the 1960s and ‘70s, and also a well-respected soccer official. Gene Erickson, a 1985 inductee and 1949 graduate of Spring Valley High School, was an outstanding hockey goaltender who was an alternate netminder for the 1956 Olympics.
