North Hempstead Announces 2011 Schedule for Popular Senior Program
Port Washington, NY—Supervisor Jon Kaiman and the North Hempstead Town Board today announced the 2011 schedule for the ultra-popular free senior program, FunDay Monday, held at North Hempstead Beach Park. Drawing hundreds of seniors every Monday from 10:00am to 2:00pm, FunDay Monday offers live music, entertainment, dancing, card-playing, and a chance to renew old acquaintances-- all while enjoying the sights and sounds of the Town beach. Parking is free for seniors during the program and rain dates are held on Thursdays of the same week.
“FunDay Monday is a great opportunity for our seniors to enjoy a relaxing day at North Hempstead Beach Park,” said Supervisor Jon Kaiman. “We have arranged fun-filled activities every Monday as well as free bus transportation. Seniors can simply call 311 for the bus schedule and for more details on the program.”
