We will require all vehicles visiting town beaches to have their 2020 beach sticker by Wednesday, July 1. Until then, we will honor 2019 beach parking and 4x4 permits. We encourage you to purchase your 2020 permit in advance, and to help you do that, we've created the following guidelines: • You can purchase your sticker on the Viply app • You can mail in your beach sticker application to 55 Columbus Ave., Riverhead NY 11901 or drop it in the box outside our Parks office (Stotzky Park) • You can pick up or buy your sticker in person (see below for more information) How to pick up your sticker in person: • Stickers will be available for pickup on Mon-Fri, 7:30 am-3 pm at the Parks office in Stotzky Park: 55 Columbus Avenue, Riverhead, and at all four town beaches on weekends: Sat. and Sun., 10 am-3 pm • ONLY resident and senior resident parking permits will be available at this time • You can pick up your sticker purchased online through Viply or • You can purchase your 2020 permit • Bronze level stickers only (this is just for parking -- all other levels will be available at a later date) • Bronze level stickers are $20, or $5 for seniors • No 2020 4x4 stickers will be sold at this time, but we will honor 2019 4x4 stickers if you still have one. Viply customers: • You can pick up your sticker at the Parks office on the days/times above or • If you want your sticker mailed, upload your registration and proof of residency (tax, utility bill) to recreation@townofriverheadny.gov. Please reference your Viply confirmation number in the subject field. When purchasing or picking up your beach permit, we ask that you please follow social distancing protocol. Please wear a mask and remain at least six feet apart from others. We have walk-up windows available at the Parks office -- no need to enter the building.

They will both resume the following Tuesday, June 16. We've also added new on-demand videos for kids to enjoy!

SUMMER REC REGISTRATION (updated 4/27): Previously, new dates for camp registration were posted anticipating a late April or early May registration. Due to the uncertainty of our timeline for reopening Recreation offices, camp registration is postponed indefinitely. This does not mean that Summer Camp is canceled, or that registration will be difficult. We have three sites available for campers this summer, and are focused on making sure your needs are met. Stay safe, stay well, and we will update you as soon as we have more information. Please check back here for updates, check our Facebook page (Town of Riverhead Parks and Recreation Department), or contact Liz at keller@townofriverheadny.gov and 631.405.0151. We also have a new alert system available; to receive messages for updates specific to camp, text SUMMERCAMP to 631-364-0517. We hope to see everyone soon. Please see below for a message from our Youth Programs staff! ONLINE CLASSES (updated 4/19): Exciting announcement! We are thrilled to introduce a menu of online classes, both live and pre-recorded and covering a variety of topics.
