About The Friends of Mitchell Park
The Friends of Mitchell Park, a registered 501(c)(3) charitable organization, was founded in 2008 to support cultural, artistic and educational events in Mitchell Park, a 4-acre green oasis on the waterfront in Greenport Village on the East End of Long Island, NY. We operate with the cooperation and support of the Village of Greenport. Learn more about Mitchell Park. Visit the Greenport Village website.

More Free Carousel Rides in 2024
In conjunction with the children's egg hunt on Saturday, March 30, 2024, the Friends of Mitchell Park offered free carousel rides to children ages 12 and under.
This was a huge success with a total of 441 riders who enjoyed the carousel rides.
