At the October 4, 2021 Board meeting of the Roslyn Landmark Society the Board of Trustees unanimously voted to appoint Mitchell Schwartz as a trustee.
Mitchell Schwartz is a Flower Hill resident and a Roslyn High School graduate. An avid historian, Michell is a history major at Hofstra University studying to become an infrastructure attorney. He currently serves as one of the Flower Hill’s two village historians. One of the major projects Mitchell has undertaken is creating the Flower Hill Historic Trail, which is a network of recreational trails connecting to over 100 points of historical interest within the village.
The Roslyn Landmark Society looks forward to having Mitchell’s expertise with database research and organizing and managing historical documents as well as finding ways in which we can better teach our local history in our schools.
Howard Kroplick, co-president of the Roslyn Landmark Society said “I am pleased to have Mitchell Schwartz as a new trustee. His energy and passion for history will be an asset to the organization.” John Santos, co-president of the Roslyn Landmark Society, also commented “Mitchell’s knowledge of Roslyn and Flower Hill will be valuable to our organization. We are all looking forward to working with him.”
Mitchell Schwartz said “I am honored and excited to have the privilege of working with and for the Roslyn Landmark Society as a trustee to preserve and educate the public on the extensive history of the Roslyn community for generations to come.”
Roslyn Landmark Society is currently seeking additional trustees to join the Board. “Diversification and expansion are currently underway, and I’m committed to help make this happen,” said Jordan Fensterman, the chairperson of Board Development and Membership Committee.
