Westhampton Beach Has Edge Right Now in Boys Golf League VIII

Undefeated at 6-0 as of Tuesday morning, the Westhampton Beach boys golf team finds itself in the driver’s seat for another League VIII title. The Hurricanes did play at Southampton on Tuesday afternoon, results of which were too late to get into this week’s article, and they have still yet to play East Hampton on its home course at Amagansett Golf Club, which comes later next week.

Price vs. Value

The price tag will create the first response among Sag Harbor School District residents — $35 million to $40 million is a hefty figure, even though any substantial renovation of a school building can be expected to come in at that price — but here’s hoping they take a moment to look beyond the bottom line. Pierson High School is already an outstanding institution of learning: The quality of young people who are graduating and going on to bigger and better things is truly remarkable, and their accomplishments while in high school are head-turning. The district regularly gives students with ... by Editorial Board

Free To Choose

Governor Kathy Hochul deserves credit for giving New York State residents a shot in the arm, figuratively and literally. The mess that is the federal Health Department has effectively muddied the waters on COVID vaccines. This is to be expected: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has long been a vaccine critic and skeptic; he has stacked the department with like-minded pseudo-experts who are eager to look past most vaccines’ proven benefits to try to find hidden, lurking dangers. The damage is being done: Many people now are wary of vaccines, for themselves and their children, after trying to wade through the ... by Editorial Board
