Volunteer Roundup: Help at a Local Animal Shelter or Play Poker for a Cause

Five ways to give back in and around our community.

Whether you attend a Mother's Day Brunch, volunteer with a local organization or play in a charity poker tournament you'll be living the spirit of volunteerism in Three Village. If you are part of a group that is in need of volunteers, please let us know by adding a "Volunteers Needed" announcement or sending us an email.

Running season is in full swing and for all of the runners in the Three Village community, participating in races to support local is a great way to give back. The 4th Annual Judy's Run for Awareness is set for Sunday, May 22 at 9 a.m. at Sunken Meadow State Park in Kings Park. The 5K run and 1 mile Fun Walk is held each year to generate donations to promote public awareness about strokes, educate about prevention, and provide treatment for those who have suffered a stroke. 

  • Support the American Diabetes Association at a Mother's Day Brunch

The Three Village Meals on Wheels program provides meals to people in need Monday through Friday in our community. The organization is always looking for volunteers to deliver the meals to residents of the Three Village community or help out in the office.

I agree..maybe that is one of the reasons road pavement safety lines and striping esp. in the 3VRead More area are virtually non existent!! VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION that leaves the TOWN OF BROOKHAVEN liable involving accidents and fatalities. I think the new T.O.B. highway super, (D. L.) should make this a priority!

So, essentially that first residential home is being written off as the price of doing business.Read More There goes that property value. Other than as a professional residence, who would want to live by a driveway for that traffic? As for the entrance Village Automotive, that will bring even more traffic to an already busy intersection nearby. 25A is impassable/impossible in that area for large chunks of the day now.

The rezoning is for the acres of undeveloped residential land across from Ann Maries Farm stand,Read More extending down to the wooded area on 25A. A one way entrance would be placed by Village Automotive and a one way exit would come out on N. Country Rd. adjacent to the first residential house.
