Dozens of volunteers of all ages joined with Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino, North Hempstead Town Supervisor Jennifer DeSena, Councilman Thomas Hand, and Receiver of Taxes Jeff Pravato at the Town of Oyster Bay’s Annual Dune Day event. Held at TOBAY Beach, this program brings community groups, families, and individuals concerned about our environment together to help protect and preserve our beautiful shoreline by planting stalks of dune grass.
Dunes along the south shore continue to face environmentally damaging storms that have a significant impact on the beach. Statistics indicate that the planting of dune grass provides a natural shield that is perfect for withstanding storm surges and high winds.
