Glen Cove second-graders tour City Hall

Glen Cove’s youngest residents have had a first-hand opportunity to learn about their local city government with their recent visits to Glen Cove’s City Hall.  Over the past two weeks, second graders from Gribbin and Deasy schools, along with their teachers, have visited with Mayor Tenke to gain an understanding about the mayor’s responsibilities and to get a special tour of City Hall hosted by the mayor himself.  In his question and answer sessions with the students, Mayor Tenke has answered questions about how he was elected, what he likes about his job and what are his favorite places to go in the City of Glen Cove. 

“Each time I meet with our students I am so impressed with their enthusiasm, their smart questions and their knowledge about our city celebrating its 350th Anniversary this year,” said Mayor Tenke. “I greatly appreciate the chance to speak with the children.”
