The Smithtown Special Library District: On-Your-Own Train Trip to NYC

 ,   Add to calendar
 Main Street Kings Park NY 11754  See map

Enjoy a day in the city with reduced-rate tickets via the LIRR and the Smithtown Library!

Anyone – regardless of library district – is welcome.

Round-trip fare for ages 5 to adult is just $8.50 and children under 5 travel free. (Those under age 18 must be accompanied by an adult guardian.)

Register and pay (non-refundable cash or check made out to “Smithtown Library”) in person at either the Commack (3 Indian Head Rd; 631-543-0998) or Nesconset (148 Smithtown Blvd, Nesconset; 631-265-3994) Branch of the Smithtown Library starting May 1 and ending at 9pm on June 25.

Then meet a library staff member on the day of the trip at the Kings Park Rail Road Station house at 8:45am, when the tickets are given out.

The train leaves at 9:10am and arrives at Penn Station at 10:42am (transfer at Huntington).

We must be on the same train and remain in the same car as a group from Kings Park to Huntington and Huntington to Penn.

After that, you’re on your own! Come home that day on any Kings Park bound train that leaves Penn before midnight

Tomorrow is the vote..vote NO NOW or our taxes are going to continue to sky rocket. Unless we doRead More something this town will continue to spiral down. More taxes aren't going to help. We need to cut expenses and get ourselves on a fiscally responsible plan.

Isn't that above the cap? Funny, when another news source mentioned 5 districts that are breakingRead More the cap they didn't mention Smithtown. Dn't worry, the district will bully and scare the parents into voting yes by threatening programs instead of doing what they need to do which is reduce administrative costs.

We can all make a statement one way or another when we vote. However, that statement should be madeRead More on a state level not the local level. Boards of Ed are powerless to do any real cost cutting. The state needs to take this on. We need real reform in Albany to reduce the ever increasing pensions and life long benefits that educators enjoy. Combine this with letting Albany decide salary increases for all educators and we can guaranty tax reductions over the next few years. Its that simple, Boards cannot do these. Lets get Albany to move on these NOW!
