About Us...
The Smith Point
Peninsula Homeowner’s Association will deal strictly
with concerns that directly affect the peninsula,
including our health, safety, neighborhood
beautification, preservation of surrounding waterways,
wetlands and recreational facilities. We have already
established friendly relationships with local officials,
police and fire departments, school board, Fire Island
National Seashore, Suffolk County Parks and Brookhaven
Town Parks Department.
We recently entered
into a stewardship agreement with the Town of Brookhaven
Department of Parks to keep Shirley Beach at Smith
Landing open during daylight hours in the off-season. We
are responsible for opening and closing the gates, and
our volunteers have already repaired the gate, replaced
the parking barriers along the water’s edge, moved the
picnic tables back to their area and are keeping the
park clean and litter free! We are also developing a
rapport with the neighborhood children and young adults
and are beginning to instill in them a sense of
ownership and pride in their park.
In recognition of the
great history of this area, we intend to work closely
with the Manor of St. George to engender knowledge of
and pride in its historic significance. It is our
intention to work amiably with all other local civic
groups where a common interest exists. We plan to
sponsor family events, such as “Family Day ” at Shirley
Beach, events at the Fire Island National Seashore,
neighborhood clean-ups etc.
Our name, the Smith
Point Peninsula Homeowner’s Association, with emphasis
on “peninsula” and “homeowners” reflects the mutual
goals of our membership; like-minded individuals coming
together to create positive change for our neighborhood.
If you share the
optimism we feel about the potential of this beautiful
waterfront community, please join us. We’d love to hear
from you with questions, suggestions, ideas or dreams!
