The Jewel

Noyac is the jewel of Southampton, known for its beautiful beaches, ponds, sunsets, hiking trails — and amazing volunteers.

Members of the Noyac Civic Council participated in the Great East Cleanup on April 22. The following volunteers must be recognized for their outstanding efforts in cleaning up sections of Noyac Road, Trout Pond and Circle Beach: Jack Mather, Viola Goodale, Jackie Tulo, Quinn Cole, Katherine Gruanga, Julie Totero, Elfie Winkle, Michelle Mocsotar, Diane Hewett, Chuck Neuman. Matt Burns, Nick Maurantonio, Jackie Maurantonio, Maggie Jaeger, Gus Hayes, Janet Grossman, Julianna Meyer, Brandon Guarga, Alan Nava, Erik Moyer, Rory O’Shea, Kai Baorseshes, John Arendt, Maryanne Arendt, Marguerite Basti, John Kirrane, Carolyn Kirrane, Bridget Kirrane and Sharon Bakes. Please forgive me if I left out any volunteer’s name.

This year brought new findings: White Claw seems to be the beverage of choice, based on the number of empty cans that the volunteers picked up, beating out Bud and Coors. One volunteer found a Mega Million Lotto ticket. We wish her luck. One group picked up several beach toys among the usual food wrappings discarded along the road.

The Noyac Civic Council wants to thank Fred, the Highway Department truck driver, who assisted us with picking up the 60 bags of trash we collected.

We are forever thankful that so many Noyac residents take pride in our hamlet.
