(ELMONT and VALLEY STREAM, N.Y.) – Nassau County Legislator Carrié Solages (D – Valley Stream) thanked the Green Acres Mall for their contributions toward a pair of important Third District community initiatives.
On Friday, May 31, Green Acres Mall officials presented a $1,000 check in support of the Elmont Chamber of Commerce, and a $3,000 check for Simon’s Valley Stream Jazz Festival – the 19th edition of which is set for Saturday, Aug. 10 at the Valley Stream Village Bandshell. The festival, which is being spearheaded through a partnership between Assemblywoman Michaelle Solages, the Village, and the Jazz Festival, features family-friendly fun, an array of multicultural performances, food trucks, vendors and more for a night of music under the stars.
“These funds will go a long way toward enhancing programs that strengthen our local business communities and outstanding cultural events like the Valley Stream Jazz Festival, which has been entertaining our community for nearly two decades,” Legislator Solages said. “I thank everyone at the Green Acres Mall for supporting these worthwhile endeavors and giving back to the residents of the Third Legislative District, and it is my hope that more corporate partners will follow the lead of the Green Acres Mall and contribute toward these outstanding organizations.”
