Community Involvement | Peconic Landing

As a business, Peconic Landing is an economic mainstay in Southold Town, employing over 200 people and spending an estimated $2 million with local businesses. Each year, we make a not-for-profit contribution in lieu of taxes in excess of $1.4 million with nearly $900K allocated for school taxes.

Our members and employees have established a culture founded on being good neighbors and give generously of their time, talent and financial resources to support a myriad of local causes. We’re committed to making a difference in the lives of others both on-campus and in the community at-large.

Community Commitment Program
Through our Community Commitment Program, we’re building on our strong foundation of being a good neighbor to establish Peconic Landing as an invaluable resource to all segments of the community for health, wellness and cultural arts. The Community Commitment Program fosters and builds partnerships and positive relationships with local and regional constituents.

Special Events & Initiatives
The Peconic Landing 5K & May Mile, an annual multi-generational fitness event to celebrate Older Americans Month has grown into a prominent community event that also raises thousands of dollars for the local fire department.

Many residents joined with other volunteers to restore Brecknock Hall, the 19th century manor home at the campus entrance. Some champions for this historic local landmark donated funds while others contributed their time, talent and elbow grease to tackling the extensive renovation effort.

To provide inspiration and support for local students, some members developed cooperative programs like weekly reading sessions with elementary school students, a dictionary donation to third graders across the North Fork and a mentoring program, Trailblazers and Pathfinders, where residents mentor graduating seniors.
