Dear Neighbor,
We are excited to bring you another great season of recrea�onal programs! Being
that 2025 is our Village’s centennial year, we are really looking forward to all of the exci�ng
summer programs and events ahead of us. For decades the Village has been known for
providing countless families with fun, innova�ve and safe recrea�onal programs. Our sta�
has been working �relessly these past few months to con�nue in that tradi�on of excellence.
All of the summer events this year will have a special “centennial” �air in honor of
the Village’s 100th birthday. From the weekly car shows, concerts, pool dances and pool
movie nights, there is something for everyone! Although we have been celebra�ng since
January, I am truly excited to invite all of you to the Centennial Parade & Community Block
Party scheduled for September 27th! Details for this event are on the inside back cover. On
page 19, you will no�ce two collectable, limited release, centennial items for sale! These
items will be a keepsake for many years to come.
On behalf of the Village Board & Village Jus�ce, we look forward to seeing you
around our Village this summer! Summer of 2025 promises to be �lled with good �mes and
great memories in Valley Stream. Valley Stream may not celebrate like this for another one
hundred years!
Sincerely,
Deputy Mayor
Dermond E. Thomas
