It's time to roll up your sleeves and get your hands in the soil! The OBMSA Beautification Committee is bringing back their Seedling Program open to children and adults! Our aim is to encourage civic pride by providing a way for our local kids and residents to become active participants in taking care of our community.
In mid to late May, when the seedlings are mature enough, they will be collected and planted in designated gardens throughout the hamlet of Oyster Bay for all to enjoy! |

The Oyster Bay Main Street Association's (OBMSA) Annual Meeting on January 24th provided a comprehensive overview of the organization's mission, achievements, and future plans. The organization, led by Executive Director Meredith Maus and Director of Development Sarah Kostakis, in collaboration with the Board of Directors and grassroots committees, showcased their commitment to fostering a thriving economy while preserving Oyster Bay's historic charm. The meeting emphasized the importance of community input in shaping OBMSA's initiatives, encouraging active participation through surveys, committees, and feedback. New volunteer and internship programs were introduced based on community feedback, offering clear pathways for involvement. With a focus on their Business Assistance Program, which successfully supported 11 businesses in 2023, OBMSA acts as a crucial liaison between businesses, building owners, and the community.

OBMSA Moved Offices
At the beginning of 2022, OBMSA relocated from our offices at 19 Spring Street to a suite at 123 South Street. We moved for the very best of reasons - we needed more space! Our email, phone numbers, and website all remain the same and we hope you'll arrange a time to visit us at our new location! Since moving, a brand new retail store - Hummingbird - has opened in our former office with Pagio Jewelry opening right next store not but a month later! It is so encouraging to see how quickly storefront vacancies are filling in the downtown! Looking to open up in Oyster Bay?
