Keep Oceanside safe and quiet! Say NO to fireworks!

As the Independence Day holiday weekend approaches, the Town of Hempstead reminds residents that illegal fireworks are detrimental to the health and safety of community members.

Have a safe, happy and healthy 4th of July celebration - say "no" to illegal fireworks.

The speeding and loud car noises all over town is a big concern, especially on the main roads. We have been reaching out to officials trying to get help, we need a solid plan to get this in control. In the meantime, please be aware of your own speed and be safe.

We would like to move forward in forming the Neighborhood Watch. Everyone that has reached out with interest will be contacted shortly to discuss the next steps. We encourage everyone to get involved, just send a message with any questions or to become a part, get to know the people in your community.

As a participant, all that is expected is to be aware of suspicious activity on your block/area and to report this activity. Basically, if you see something you say something. You should observe and report the issue, never confront anyone. Depending on what and how serious it is, you will either call 911 or report it to a member in your area designated as ‘Block Captain’.

You can also become more involved by being a ‘Block Captain’ - someone who will help to organize and receive information on your block/area and recruit neighbors to join.

We will also need volunteers to help in other ways- organizing members, monitoring and posting on the site, welcoming new neighbors, etc.

We encourage everyone to get involved!
