I’m so excited for summer in the Sound Shore here in Westchester, NY! There are so many free family events going on, and I will be posting on this page regularly throughout the season to keep you updated on upcoming outdoor movies, beach parties, live music, festivals, and more.

BEACH PARTY
This is one of my favorite local events of the summer and I’m excited that Sound Shore Moms is a sponsor! LMC Media and the Village of Mamaroneck Parks and Recreation will once again host the wildly popular Tiki Party at Harbor Island Park on Saturday, July 13th, beginning at 6pm. This free community event brings over 3,000 people from across the Sound Shore to enjoy food, drinks, a live band, fire dancers, and more. There will be activities for all ages. The evening culminates with a movie screening under the stars — bring your best mates for this year’s movie, Under the Boardwalk!
