The Town of Haverstraw PBA is excited to announce that we partnered with the Inserra Family and Shoprite of Garnerville in our first ever Pay it Forward program. Today, 100 patrons of Shoprite Garnerville received a $20.00 gift card from our members and all we asked in return is that each recipient pay a good deed forward in the future. We feel that during this trying time, this gesture could go a long way for the families, especially so close to Thanksgiving and the holiday season.
In total, 100 gift cards, dozens of PBA stickers and police K9 bracelets were distributed. We’re truly blessed to be able to live and work in a community we love and this is just a small token of appreciation for the community that stands behind us. We graciously thank the Inserra Family for matching our donation and for helping make the venture possible today. We look forward to continuing this relationship in the future and wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season.
Thank You, –  PBA President Nick Armida

For generations, New City Bowl & Batting Cages has been a hometown favorite in Rockland County, offering classic family entertainment in the heart of New City. Established in 1960, the bowling alley has remained a community gathering spot where friends and families come together for league nights, birthday parties, arcade games, batting cages, and casual nights out. Under owner Alice Lenna’s leadership, the venue has continued to modernize while keeping its nostalgic neighborhood charm alive.

Recently, the local landmark received a touch of Hollywood when actor Jon Hamm visited during filming for the Apple TV+ drama series Your Friends & Neighbors.

ROCKLAND COUNTY, NY — A powerful symbol of American wildlife was recently spotted soaring high above Rockland County, as two bald eagles were captured in flight in a striking local photograph.

The image, taken by Rockland County photographer Owey Cramsie Jr., shows the pair of bald eagles gliding through the sky — a sight that has become increasingly common in the Hudson Valley but remains awe-inspiring for residents and wildlife enthusiasts alike.

Once endangered, bald eagles have made a remarkable comeback in New York State, particularly along the Hudson River corridor and surrounding waterways that provide ample food sources and nesting areas. Their presence in Rockland County is widely viewed as a sign of improving environmental conditions and successful conservation efforts.

Local sightings of bald eagles continue to draw attention from birdwatchers and photographers, especially during the winter months when the large raptors are more active and visible in the region.
