Southampton Town Aquatics & Recreation (STAR) Corporation wishes to thank the Southampton Town Board, the Water Mill and North Sea community advisory committees, and the many members of the Tuckahoe and Shinnecock community who have taken the time to talk with us about the STAR AquaCenter. We are in the early steps of a multi-step process to reinvigorate our dream and make it a reality.
No one denies the need in our town for a place to teach our children to swim. No one denies that there is little for children and adults to do in winter on the East End. No one denies that there has ever been a greater need for our community to come together!
Now is the time to plan for this essential indoor aquatic facility that will meet the needs of our coastal community.
We pledge to actively engage with all stakeholders and community members to share ideas and address concerns. This long overdue facility cannot be achieved without us all working together. Anyone wishing to get involved, please go to our website: starquacenter.org.

A State Of AffairsPresident George Washington, in his Farewell Address, warned us about future “political party strife.” Throughout our history, we have endured some strife, but never have we experienced anything even close to what the Democrat Party has subjected us to in...
An EncounterIn mid-March, my husband and I, both septuagenarians and “high-risk” because of our age, hastily left New York City and encamped full-time to the Hamptons, where we have owned a house for over 40 years. As Baby Boomers, we had...
