West Islip Beautification Society Debuts New Planter

Planter greets motorists as they enter West Islip on Sunrise Highway.

A new planter designed by the West Islip Beautification Society now sits at the eastbound entrance to West Islip on the Sunrise Highway Service Road.

The brick planter features colorful, freshly planted flowers and a large sign welcoming visitors and residents to the hamlet.

President Donald Boyle extended a special thank you to Gary Misner of Misner Auto Body, whose donation funded the planter.
