Supervisor Gillen asked Councilwoman Goosby to lead the assemblage in the Pledge of Allegiance to
our flag.
Supervisor Gillen asked Councilwoman Goosby to join her at the podium to honor the Uniondale
Show Choir, "Rhythm of the Nights". The extremely talented student choir has performed at several
competitions including most recently named Grand Champions at the 2018 National competition in
Chicago. The choir along with their lead director Annette Carr-Hicks, was presented with a special
"Town of Hempstead Tony Award" and congratulated for their achievements.
Supervisor Gillen also honored Town of Hempstead Animal Shelter Volunteers: Crissy DeAngelo; Bill
Nussbaum; Leslie Braunstein; Mike Maloney for their dedication and commitment, putting in many
hours of volunteer work at the shelter.
Supervisor Gillen also recognized the Bonomo family who have done a lot for the community. Besides
adopting a dog from the shelter themselves a year ago, Brendan, Katelynn and Brianne have used their
creative talents to paint pictures of our adoptable cats and dogs at the shelters so visitors could see
what animals were available, to help our furry friends find forever homes.
