On Tuesday, August 13th 2024 at the town board meeting, HGCA Executive Board member Phil Heckler was honored by the Town of Oyster Bay board for his many years of service, including as President of the Hicksville Board of Education.

Phil’s service to the community continues as he’s recently joined the HGCA board, and has been working as chair of the Youth Outreach Committee to establish tighter bonds between our organization and the younger generation within our community. He’s been cooking up some programs over the summer, which we’ll hear more about at our next General Meeting.

Annual Toy Drive

Our Annual Toy Drive was a huge success!!! Through Lee Avenue School, we were able to adopt 7 families and bring holiday cheer to 16 children with toys and gift cards. Hopefully this will put a smile on their faces Christmas morning. This was made possible by the efforts of the Community Service Committee, chaired by Christina Mirro. Thank you to all our members who sent in donations and a special thank you to R&R Dental and the Simonello Family through The Plaza Marine Group for their generous monetary donations. We hope that the HGCA can, in a small way, help to bring a Happy Holiday Season to those in need within our community. The staff at Lee Avenue School were taken aback by the number of gifts received and couldn’t thank us enough.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!!

Thanks to the wondrous generosity of our members, the civic was able to provide Thanksgiving meals and gift cards to three families in the community to help them refill their pantry this season.

In addition, we were able to provide toys for 16 children across 7 families to ensure smiles this holiday season for those who are less fortunate.

We extend our thanks our members, to the family of John Simonello, and to the Plaza Marine group for helping us support these Hicksville families.

Thank you to Lee Ave school for their ongoing partnership in identifying the families and helping distribute the gifts.

Many thanks to our Community Service committee, chaired by Chris and Nick Mirro, for their tireless labor in shopping for all the goods and packaging, and to Irene Guarasci for the extra set of hands in wrapping the record setting number of presents provided by the civic.

We wish everyone a very happy and safe Holiday season!
