HARBOR ISLAND NEEDS FRIENDS LIKE YOU

Harbor Island Park is often described as the "Jewel of Mamaroneck." Its waterfront location is in one of the loveliest protected harbors on the Long Island Sound. Its sweeping vistas, central location and proximity to the Village's main shopping district make this vital resource a magnet for our community.

Year round, residents of Mamaroneck and the surrounding communities are drawn to the park for athletic events such as baseball, soccer, tennis, boating, and fishing; community events; the enjoyment of nature; and just to have fun.

Anyone who has attended a Saturday soccer game, taken a springtime walk in the park when the vibrant cherry trees are in bloom or who has gathered for the annual 4th of July fireworks knows the exceptional value of this 44.5 acre resource.

HARBOR ISLAND NEEDS HELP
  • Beach closed for three consecutive summers
  • Geese have taken over the playing fields
  • Pollution is fouling our waterways
  • Land use and architectural design need to be upgraded
While the beach is now open and the geese are less of a nuisance, land use and architectural design still need upgrading. And although the Master Plan has been completed, much still needs to be done to implement it.
HARBOR ISLAND NEEDS YOU NOW
The Harbor Island Conservancy was founded by concerned Village residents. Our public officials need help. Our park needs a champion to preserve it for future generations.
  • An independent, non-partisan, not-for-profit organization, the Harbor Island Conservancy is a public advocate for improving and maintaining the park and its adjacent waterways.
  • Working with the Village of Mamaroneck, the Conservancy will raise needed funds to support improvements in the Park.
FIRST STEPS
  • Help to implement the Master Plan
  • Promote efforts to clean up our waterways through public education and advocacy for the elimination of sources of pollution
  • Promote projects that will help kids enjoy the park and its adjacent water.
  • Promote projects to make young people more conservation minded and more plugged in to ways of reducing global warming here in Westchester
  • Undertake projects to enhance the beauty of the park.
OUR MISSION STATEMENT
Harbor Island Park and its adjacent water comprises the crown jewel of Mamaroneck. However, as recent events have shown, this jewel requires constant care and attention. HIC will focus on making the park a place that is obviously loved and cared for. We will help, in coordination with the Village government and other organizations, to make the park a wonderful place to walk, play, swim, fish and simply enjoy. We will be a source of knowledge, ideas, energy and money and we will encourage active cooperation from all who care about our park.
