Deer Park Fire Dept : I am in the Coast Guard auxiliary, and…read morelast week Deer Park fire department had their annual health and safety fair. Most of the usual vendors were there. This is my third year doing this event and let me tell you Deer Park Fire Dept is simply great. You were treated like a rockstar from the minute of your arrival. They have table set up for you, there is plenty of parking, they provide water all day long and at lunchtime the spread that they put out is simply marvelous. They are all types of vendors, The CERT team. The State Troopers, Suffolk county Police and many others. Suffolk County Aviation Department which is a branch of the Suffolk County police even had a helicopter for the kids which landed. All in all it turned out to be a spectacular day, and I commend the Deer Park fire department in such a wonderful job, and I look forward in returning next year to help out and represent the United States Coast Guard auxiliary.

A standard laundry mat if you need to do a quick wash and dry of your down comforter once a season…read moreand have to use a industry size washer and dryer due to the size. The staff is nice and helpful with what size washer and dryer is best to use based on your item. It could definitely use some updating inside as it's on the older side. The dryer in the bathroom to dry your hands didn't work and there weee no paper towels. The soda machine had a sign that the soda was warm, not ideal for somebody who may be stuck there without a car who wants a cold drink. Luckily that wasn't me. It's ok for what it is but if I had to go to the laundry mat once a week to do all of my laundry I would search for a newer more updated place.

Fascard (no coins) machines throughout the place. Even if you're purchasing detergent / fabric softener. I personally like using this system. One card for everything. Drop off service available but haven't used it. Children's area with books. Front and rear parking both with entrances.

Returning packages just got easier!…read more I stopped by this post office to return a SHEIN dress, and I was so impressed by how quick and convenient it was. They have free oversized pouches for returns (a feature I haven't seen at other locations), which made the process super simple--just drop in the item and have the clerk scan the QR code on your phone. Plus, the lines here are usually much shorter. This is definitely my new go-to spot for SHEIN, Amazon, and other returns.

This is a small library that has a good amount of resources and programs, such as free health…read morescreenings and referrals by Catholic Health Services, defensive driving courses, boater safety certification courses, computer skills classes and more. Check out their website, deerparklibrary.org and their Instagram page, #deerparklibrary, to see all what they have to offer. Today I took a defensive driving course here. It was taught by National Traffic Safety instructor, Thomas K, who was thorough and direct, and he encouraged class participation. Some students shared fascinating tales about their driving experiences. Today's class took place in the Dina A. Reilly Community Room, and it lasted six hours with a few 15 minute breaks and one half an hour lunch break. Thomas engaged the class with audio-visuals. For example, he put on a short film, featuring a family grieving about the death of their relative. He was a highway construction worker who was killed on the job by a driver who failed to obey a "slow down" sign. Course completion certificates will be mailed with an expected arrival date of six weeks. Point reductions and insurance discounts will be retroactive to today's date. Some students brewed beverages from the coffee and tea Keurig pods that were placed on the coffee table. Some of us helped ourselves to some Entenmann's milk chocolate chip cookies as well. Deer Park residency is not a pre-requisite for the class. Stop by the Registration Desk to register. The class costs $25, and one is held several times a year. The four star review is due to feedback from my classmates. Many found the class overcrowded and preferred that it be held in a larger room. Others found Thomas boring and think that he could have showed us more short films.

I wonder why this is the only library in Suffolk County that does not sell used books …read more They used to have wonderful children's books . I know we had COVID , but .... really , it is time that this is over . It cannot be THAT much trouble for the staff to take care of this . Also , why no Friends of the Library ? Again , Deer Park sets themselves apart by refusing to have this very valuable resource . I believe that the head of the library does not want patrons to be involved in any decisions . This is a shame because there is so much more that can be done in this library .
