MAIN STREET ASSOCIATION
INVITES PUBLIC TO FREE DOWNTOWN SUMMER EVENTS
The Oyster Bay Main
Street Association announces the return of “Dancing in the Street,”
a series of free dance evenings on the streets of historic and picturesque
Oyster Bay.
Following on the success of last year's “Dancing in the
Street,” OBMSA invites the public to put on their dancing shoes and return
to the streets of Oyster Bay for delightful evenings of pure fun. Dancers of
all ages, skills, and styles are welcome.
Mark your calendars now for three Fridays in July: Friday, July 13th, Friday, July 20th, and
Friday, July 27th, between 7:30 and 9:30 pm, on Audrey
Avenue around the Bandstand. Bring a
chair if desired. Additional dates for
August may be announced later on.
Music and dance instructions are provided by two of
the most popular Long Island DJs: Louis del Prete, who the participants
will remember from last year's events, and Mark James, a newcomer to the
summer night street dancing in Oyster Bay.
Main Street Association Promotion Chair Diane Meltzer
remarked: “Since everybody enjoyed “Dancing in the Street” so much last year,
we wanted to repeat the series this summer. This event brings the community
together-- you can see dancers of all ages--families with small children,
college kids, seniors; all taking to the floor.
What is there not to like about a starlit night in a beautiful town,
good music, and fun dance instructions?”
Barbara Pollock, one of the event organizers and an avid
dancer, said: “We are very lucky to have secured DJ Louis del Prete for another
year. Louis plays good dance music, understands his audience, teaches at
various skill levels, and he can even sing!
We are also very pleased Mark James will be joining us; he and Louis
provide great quality entertainment. No surprise they both have a great
following on the Island.”
“Dancing in the Street” is organized by the Oyster
Bay Main Street Association. It is one of the community building/ downtown
revitalization efforts by the organization, and promises to be a highlight of
the summer season!
