Things to do in Massepequa Park
Bethpage State Park / The People’s Country Club
Marking the first time a U.S. Open will be played at a truly public course, Bethpage State Park has a long and proud history, stretching back to the 1930s when it was built as a public works project. The U.S. Open is slated for June 13-16 at the Bethpage State Park Black Course. Robert Moses of the Long Island State Park Commission began the drive to make Bethpage a public park. The hilly, wooded land was in an ideal location and already contained an 18-hole golf course known then as the Lenox Hills Country Club. Call 516-249-0700 for more information.
Fire Island State Park / Robert Moses State Park
Fire island is more than 20 years older than any other state park on Long Island. The frequency of shipwrecks off its shores-led to United States acquisition of what was then the westerly tip of Fire Island (Point Democrat) for site upon which a lighthouse was erected in 1825. It was rebuilt in 1858 and stands today as a beacon of world renown. Accretion over the years has moved Point Democrat westerly a distance of five miles and changed the course of Fire Island Inlet to practically an east-west direction. 4 Ocean front parking fields offer a total capacity approximately 8,300 cars and an 18 hole Pitch Putt golf course are open to the public, year-round seven days a week.
