Summer Youth Program Registration Opens This Morning

Sea Cliff, NY · June 8, 2026

The morning mist is lifting off the Sound, just in time for the first full week of the summer season. It is a transition day for the village as we move from the creative energy of the weekend into the logistical planning that defines our warmer months.


📰 The Lead

The weekend’s "Paint the Village" event concluded with a flurry of activity, as local landscapes were captured on canvas and auctioned off to support community arts. As the easels are packed away, the village shifts its focus to the younger generation this morning. Registration for the Summer Recreation Program officially opens at 9:00 AM, a critical deadline for families eyeing spots in the popular sailing and beach camp sessions.

This year, the program has introduced a new online portal to streamline the process, though paper applications are still being accepted at Village Hall. Beyond the logistics, the high demand for these programs underscores a growing trend of residents staying local for the season. The Village Board is also expected to discuss the final revenue from the art auction later this week, which helps fund the free concert series scheduled to begin in July.
