Message from Asharoken Mayor Greg Letica:

Dear Neighbors:
The centennial spirit in the Village is starting to gain steam. This week the Village Photographer and resident Dee Lento presented Asharoken with a centennial banner that is being displayed in the lobby of Village Hall. Police Officer Rob Cafiero also donated a beautiful banner which is displayed outside Village Hall. I thank them and Matt Davies for donating their time and effort to support the Village's 100-year anniversary.
The Centennial committee of Ed Carr, Carole Casamassima and Kerry Kruckel are hard at work on several events. The first one will be the Centennial dinner dance and fireworks fundraiser scheduled for Saturday, March 29th at the Northport Yacht Club. Carole, the dinner chairperson, will be sending out invitations in the next few weeks. Please save the date and try to attend this traditionally terrific event.
It is nice to see that we are coming out of the deep freeze of earlier this week. I hope you have a nice weekend.
Best regards,
Mayor Dr. Gregory Letica

Dear Neighbors:
Alex Janow, a former Village Trustee and US Marine, is collecting magazines for our Veterans who are receiving care at the Northport VA hospital. This is a great cause and I hope you can help out. There is a box in the lobby of Village Hall where you can drop off publications for the Vets. I thank Alex for his volunteer efforts at the VA, and his service to both the Country and the Village.
The Village Board of Trustees will hold a special meeting on Tuesday, January 21st at 4pm for the purpose of certifying the unpaid taxes and a few other items:
Village Hall will be closed on Monday, January 20th for the Martin Luther King Jr. holiday.
It looks like we are in for several cold days and maybe a little snow. Have a great weekend, enjoy the football games and stay warm.
Best regards,
Mayor Dr. Gregory Letica

Annual Village Election
On January 7, 2025, the Board of Trustees adopted a resolution setting the annual Village election date to Tuesday, June 17, 2025. It was also resolved that the offices to be filled at this election and the terms are:
Trustee, two years
Trustee, two years
The polling place will be Asharoken Village Hall from noon to 9pm, subject to change.
Our hearts, thoughts and prayers go out to the families who lost loved ones and their homes in the California fires. This is especially true for one of our Village residents who lost their home in the Pacific Palisades fire. We wish you all the best as you work to rebuild your lives.
I congratulate Village resident and Northport High School senior Dora Fields on being named a semifinalist in the Regeneron Science Talent Search. Dora extracted keratin from human hair (collected from hair salons) and created a novel compound to support root growth in hydroponic gardening. Unlike the materials that are presently used for this purpose, Dora's novel compound is both nontoxic and biodegradable. Dora is only one of 49 Long Island High School students who received this honor. It is a remarkable achievement. Well done Dora and best of luck as you continue your studies at Yale University next year!
The Asharoken Centennial Birthday/Save the Fireworks fundraiser and dinner dance will be held on Saturday, March 29th. Carole Casamassima has organized this wonderful evening for more than a decade and she expects that this year will be better than ever. The party, held at the Northport Yacht Club, will feature a three-course dinner, DJ music and dancing and awesome raffle prizes. It is a great night not to be missed so save the date. Invitations will be going out at the end of the month. The party always sells out so please RSVP in a timely fashion.
The NYS Comptroller's Office has completed its field work for the claims audit it is conducting on the Village. I anticipate that they will have a formal report coming out in the next several months. I look forward to their recommendations as they can only help Asharoken do an even better job for its residents.
In my ongoing effort to keep you informed of the events in the Village, here is my Mayor's Report from the January Board meeting:
I wish you a nice weekend. Hopefully very little snow, less wind and warmer temps.
Mayor Dr. Gregory Letica
