Message from Asharoken Mayor Greg Letica:
July 9, 2026
Dear Neighbors,
In an effort to keep you informed, here is my latest Mayor's Report. It was quite a month in the Village:
Yesterday, Governor Hochul presented a ceremonial check for $12,000,000 at an event in Caleb Smith Park.
Originally, this was going to happen several weeks ago, but it was postponed because of the parade celebrating the Knicks' NBA championship. Attending the presentation yesterday were Deputy Mayor Pam Pierce, Trustee Mel Ettinger, Emergency Manager Bill Raisch, Village Clerk Michelle Glennon, Officer-in-Charge Ray Mahdesian, and my wife Linda. Joining from Eaton's Neck were Fire Chief Mike Pinto and community advocate John Ballow.
The Village presented Governor Hochul with a proclamation of thanks for her support.
Regards,
Mayor Dr. Gregory Letica

Dear Neighbors
Although today was scheduled to be the rain date for the fireworks, unforeseen circumstances have made it necessary to cancel them for this evening.
They are postponed until further notice.
The weather forecast is for more thunderstorms, Grucci does not have an accurate inventory of functioning shells left after last night's deluge, and the tug had issues as well. As more information becomes available I will let you know.
We should all be thankful that no one was injured and that the downpour put out the bonfires last night.
Mayor Dr. Gregory Letica

Dear Neighbors:
As we approach the 4th of July, I again remind everyone that safety and common sense have to rule the day. Please read the earlier note about bonfires and beach fires. Our amazing Asharoken tradition can only continue if everyone complies with the rules. We thank you all in advance for your understanding and cooperation.
The next few days are expected to be very hot. Village Hall is available as a cooling center if needed by any of our residents. Please contact the Asharoken Police Department at 631-261-7400 if in need.
There is a sad story in Audubon Magazine this month about the Osprey population in the Chesapeake Bay region doing very poorly due to overfishing of the Menhaden.

The Menhaden, commonly known as bunker, is a staple of their diet. Its fatty flesh provides incredible nutrition for both the adults and chicks. Unfortunately, commercial fishing has decimated the number of bunker, and now the Osprey are reproducing at a level even lower than when DDT was in use. Hopefully, the commercial fishing will be limited in the years to come to allow the Osprey to make a comeback.
The good news in Asharoken is that the Osprey are thriving, with chicks in all the nests. Attached is a picture Village photographer Dee Lento took of the two chicks in the Bevin Road nest that was erected by Dr. Russ Fredricks.
Regards,
Mayor Greg Letica
