Gilgo Inlet
Jun. 02, 2020 12:15 p.m.
Until recently I was the Regional Director of NYS Parks, which includes 38 Parks and Preserves across Suffolk and Nassau Counties. Prior to that I was a County Legislator, primarily representing the Babylon Village, West Babylon, and Lindenhurst area and left office as the Presiding Officer. I was also a Babylon Town Councilman and hold a Doctorate in Modern World History. Most importantly, I am a long time Babylon Rotarian.
Purpose of talk- To discuss a big idea that would revitalize the Great South Bay. The Great South Bay was once the home for thousands of clammers that harvested 2/3rds of the world's hard shell clams. The Bay teemed with life which has all but disappeared. With the advent of Hurricane Sandy there opened an inlet near Bellport on Fire Island. Since the recreation of Old Inlet we have seen the Eastern Great South Bay brought back to life. The western Bay still remains lifeless. The idea is to recreate a storm gated, non navigable, engineered inlet at Gilgo State Park. The talk will explore the reasons why and provide details on this all important idea. I will bring a map!

Join us on June 9, 2020, to learn more about the history and important role Rotary has played, and how Rotary’s work continues through our six areas of focus and TRF programs, closely aligned to help achieve the United Nations SDGs (Sustainable Millennium Goals) for a better world.
