Local boosters and museum outline programs, scholarships and volunteer needs at Kings Park board meeting
Representatives from several Kings Park community organizations used the board meeting to report on programs that support students and request volunteers and community support.

Joseph Piagentino Jr., Media Center Director at the Kings Park Heritage Museum, outlined a schedule of eight heritage‑night events (Irish, Italian completed; Asian heritage on Friday), a semi‑quincentennial exhibit running Apr. 1–Jul. 1, creation of a Kings Park Heritage Preservation Foundation to pursue grant funding and internship awards with stipend caps for general interns ($1,000 shared, $250 cap) and media center interns ($2,200 shared, $500 cap). The museum also described a fourth‑grade scavenger‑hunt program and plans for a Legends and Lanterns program in Jan. 2026.

Andrew Roegrove and Robotics Boosters representatives reported roughly $60,000 provided over seven years for scholarships, equipment and travel, volunteer needs for lower‑grade participation, and past success bringing teams to the World Championships in Houston. Mike Bellin of Kings Park Youth described intramural, adaptive multisport programs and partnerships with Hofstra and Stony Brook for clinics and halftime performances; he reported about 600 children registered across K–9, with 96% being district residents.

Brian Eskin of the Performing Arts Boosters detailed instrument purchases (tubas, euphoniums, French horns), new staging materials, a scrim and sound equipment support, and seven $500 scholarships awarded last June. Kathleen D'Antona of the Athletic Boosters described banners, showcases and scholarship awards and community drives such as a peanut‑butter and jelly drive and donations to St. Joseph's Pantry.

Speakers thanked the board for support and encouraged volunteer sign‑ups and donations. The board acknowledged the organizations’ contributions and encouraged continued partnership.
