The legendary rock 'n' roll group Blood, Sweat and Tears will headline the Town of Hempstead's Independence Celebration on Saturday, June 25, 7:30 p.m., at beautiful Point Lookout Beach. "A breathtaking fireworks display and a patriotic salute to heroic veterans will also highlight our star-studded salute to America," commented Supervisor Kate Murray.
Formed in the late 1960s, with an historic appearance at Woodstock among their credits, Blood, Sweat and Tears has left an indelible mark on the American music scene. Featuring an harmonious blend of pop-rock and jazz, Blood, Sweat and Tears is one of the greatest horn bands in the history of modern music. Among the group's chart topping hits are, "Spinning Wheel," "And When I Die," "Hi-De-Ho" and "You've Made Me So Very Happy."
"Hempstead Town will ignite this year's Independence Celebration with a spectacular beach concert and fireworks show," added Supervisor Murray. "This will be a great night of FREE family entertainment and I invite everyone to arrive early, set up their lawn chairs or blankets near the stage and enjoy a picnic dinner before the show."
The town celebration will begin with a tribute to several military veterans who have distinguished themselves in service to their country and their community. Following the veteran's tribute and concert, Bay Fireworks will brighten the night sky with a world-class fireworks display.
Spectators will enjoy viewing the classic and vintage automobiles on display from several area car clubs. In addition to the classic cars, there will be an impressive array of military vehicles and armored equipment from the 2nd Marines 25th Battalion of Garden City. There will be a food court on site as well with a tasty menu for spectators to enjoy.
KJOY 98.3 FM returns as the evening's media sponsor, and the town's Independence Celebration is further supported by Swingbelly's Restaurant in Long Beach, Entenmann's Family Bakery, Dairy Barn, Quick Snack Vending and Naturally Boulder Beverage.
Town Park Point Lookout is located at 1300 Lido Boulevard in Point Lookout. The park entrance is directly across the Loop Parkway exit on Lido Boulevard. The phone number at Town Park is 431-3900.
The rain date for the concert and fireworks is Sunday, June 26. For information on the beach show and the entire schedule of summer concerts, call the Town of Hempstead Department of Parks and Recreation at 292-9000, ext. 382, or visit the town's web site at www.toh.li.

Water Safety
Nassau County Executive Edward P. Mangano and Acting Police Commissioner Thomas C. Krumpter would like to remind county residents that water safety is something that all parents should be aware of. Drowning is the second leading cause of unintentional injury related death among children ages 1 - 14. It can happen very quickly and in less than 1 inch (2.5 centimeters) of water, so filled bathtubs, swimming pools, wading pools, hot tubs, and even buckets of water and sinks can be dangerous.
To reduce your child's risk of drowning:
Home
Never leave a small child unattended in the bath. If you must answer the telephone or door, don't rely on an older sibling to watch the child, bring the younger child with you.
Never leave a small child unattended near a bucket filled with any amount of water or other liquid.
Never use a bathtub seat with suction cups. The seat can overturn and flip a baby headfirst into the water.
Install a toilet-lid locking device or keep bathroom doors closed at all times. (Or you may want to install a doorknob cover.)
Pool
Never leave your children alone in or near the pool, even for a moment. An adult who knows CPR should actively supervise children at all times.
Practice ‘touch supervision’ with children younger than 5 years. This means that the adult is within an arm's length of the child at all times.
If you are planning a pool party, consider hiring a certified lifeguard to supervise those who will be in the pool.
Put up a fence to separate your house from the pool. Most young children who drown in pools wander out of the house and fall into the pool. Install a fence at least 4 feet high around the pool. This fence will completely separate the pool from the house and play area of the yard. Use gates that self-close and self-latch, with latches higher than your children's reach.
Keep rescue equipment (such as a shepherd's hook or life preserver) and a telephone by the pool.
Do not use air-filled "swimming aids" as a substitute for approved life vests.
Remove all toys from the pool after use so children aren't tempted to reach for them.
After the children are done swimming, secure the pool so they can't get back into it.
A power safety cover that meets the standards of the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) may add to the protection of your children but should not be used in place of the fence between your house and the pool. Even fencing around your pool and using a power safety cover will not prevent all drowning.
Drain Entrapment occurs when part of a child’s body becomes attached to a drain because of the powerful suction of a pool or hot tub filtration system. The powerful suction can trap a child underwater or cause internal injuries. It can also occur when a child’s hair, swimsuit or jewelry becomes entangled in the drain. In 2007, the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act made it illegal to manufacture, distribute or sell drain covers that do not adhere to the standards for anti-entrapment safety set by the Consumer Product and Safety Commission.
Warn your children about the dangers of drain entrapment, and teach them never to play near a pool drain, with or without a cover.
Pin up long hair when in the water and remove loose parts of swimsuits and loose jewelry that can get ensnared.
Equip pools and hot tubs with an anti-entrapment drain cover and an approved safety vacuum release system and regularly check that drain covers are secure and have no cracks. Flat drain covers can be replaced with dome-shaped ones.
Be aware of public wading pools with missing or broken drain covers. Small children have direct access to the bottom drain in wading pools and sitting on open drains can cause serious internal organ damage.
Remember, teaching your child how to swim DOES NOT mean your child is safe in water. Most young children who drown in swimming pools were last seen in the home, had only been missing from sight for a matter of minutes, and were in the care of one or both parents at the time. There is no substitute for active adult supervision to prevent drowning.

Sun, Surf and Safety
Surviving Rip Currents
Town of Hempstead beaches are popular spots for residents on Memorial Day weekend. To prepare for the approaching summer season and in recognition of National Beach Safety Week from May 23 to May 30, Hempstead Town Supervisor Kate Murray and town ocean lifeguards are offering important beach safety tips and a demonstration on how to avoid being caught in a deadly rip current. Also at the beach demonstration were Councilwoman Angie Cullin, Town Clerk Mark Bonilla and Receiver of Taxes Don Clavin.
Last summer, a number of tragedies occurred at beaches at nearby municipalities. Rip currents, a main cause of ocean drownings, are powerful, channeled currents of water flowing away from the shore. Typically, rip currents extend from the shoreline through the surf zone and past the line of breaking waves. Rip currents can occur at any beach with breaking waves. Deadly rip currents were prominent on our shores last summer, and the dangerous phenomenon is expected to threaten beachgoers again this year.
"Last summer was a sad one for Long Island, which lost several children to ocean drownings," Murray said. "We're here to help prevent tragedies from happening. To prepare for the summer season, we will be distributing a beach safety publication to every visitor to our ocean parks."
Covering three miles of shoreline in the Town of Hempstead, 150 ocean lifeguards work tirelessly to protect swimmers from danger. Individuals, families, school groups, clubs and organizations planning trips to the town's beaches are urged to take note of the hours when lifeguards are on duty. Starting on Saturday, May 28, ocean lifeguard coverage is limited to weekends and holidays until Sunday, June 19. Full ocean lifeguard coverage, when lifeguards are on duty seven days a week at Town of Hempstead beaches, starts on Monday, June 20 and ends on Labor Day, Monday, Sept. 5. When lifeguards are on duty, they are stationed between 10 a.m. and 6 p.m.
Some tips that Murray offered to swimmers who may find themselves caught in a rip current include: Remain calm to conserve energy and think clearly. Never fight against the current - think of it like a treadmill that cannot be turned off . . . you need to step to the side to escape the grip of the riptides. Swim out of the current in the direction following the shoreline. When out of the current, swim at an angle - away from the current - towards the shore. If you are unable to swim out of the rip current, float or calmly tread water. When out of the current, swim towards the shore. If you are still unable to reach shore, draw attention to yourself by waving your arm and yelling for help.
Murray and Cullin also offered other safety tips for beachgoers to keep in mind this weekend and throughout the summer.
- Don't go in the ocean unless you know how to swim.
- Never swim alone.
- Obey all the rules of the beach.
- Be cautious at all times.
- If in doubt, don't go out.
- Swim near a lifeguard.
"It is also important to keep in mind that many people drown while trying to save someone else from a rip current," observed Cullin. "If you see someone in trouble, don't become a victim too. There are important steps people can take to help a victim caught in the rip, the most important of which is alerting lifeguards to the situation."
People seeking to help victims caught in a rip current are encouraged to take the following steps:
- Get help from a lifeguard.
- If a lifeguard is not available, have someone call 911.
- Throw the rip current victim something that floats - a life-jacket, a cooler or an inflatable ball.
- Yell instructions on how to escape.
In addition to the ocean safety brochure that is available to beachgoers at Town of Hempstead beaches, anyone can get a copy of the lifesaving guide by calling 516-812-3272. Further, Hempstead town also has a pool safety guide that is available by calling the same telephone number.
"Together we can get the word out to beachgoers and help prevent more drownings," Murray said.
