Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and the Town board today announced that the Group Activities Program (GAP) will run a Summer Program from July 1st through August 9th at Marjorie Post Community Park in Massapequa and Syosset-Woodbury Community Park. The Summer Day Camp program will run daily from 10am to 3pm, and will be open to developmentally disabled children and young adults ages 5-21.
“Our Group Activities Program Summer Day Camp is one of the finest programs of its kind in the nation and our activities specialists take great pride in fostering a safe, welcoming, and inclusive atmosphere at the day camp,” Supervisor Saladino said. “We’re focused on group interaction, and as part of the summer camp, participants will be able to take part in activities such as swimming, arts and crafts, sports, music, and playground time. I encourage residents to take this opportunity to register now and take advantage of this great program.”
