NSYC is located on the grounds of the Joseph A. Edgar School
at 525 Route 25A in Rocky Point

The Council is located on the grounds of the Joseph A. Edgar School on Rocky Point Landing Road just north of 25A in Rocky Point, NY. Our programs extend throughout our community working in cooperation with the local schools, churches, civic, and business groups. The NSYC enthusiastically welcomes your ideas, questions, and concerns. Volunteers are always needed for special projects or as board members, chaperones, and fundraisers. Our doors are open Monday through Friday from 9 am to 5 pm or give us a call at (631)744-0207.

The NSYC is currently in need of artists and writers for our upcoming publication of "Spectrum Magazine." All work should be typewritten and submitted to the NSYC for consideration. Work may be edited for printing and permission slips are necessary if your entry is chosen. Not ALL work can be published due to overwhelming response. Please keep in mind the audience you are addressing and express yourself in a creative but tasteful manner. All work will be screened by our youth advisors. The NSYC is also looking for editors and paste-up artists! Contact the NSYC at 744-0207 or e-mail.
