Good morning, Schenectady.

Governor Hochul launched the Get Offline, Get Outside campaign today to urge parents to limit screen time and encourage outdoor play during summer break.

The campaign also promotes safe online habits while introducing new measures to protect children.

Governor Hochul urged New Yorkers to wear light clothing and use repellent as ticks and mosquitoes threaten outdoor fun today—she noted over 19,000 Lyme disease cases were reported in 2023—and the Health Department advises checking for ticks and covering skin during peak mosquito times.

The vacant Glenville school—closed for over 40 years—is set for demolition to make way for 27 new homes on a 38.8-acre site after the county secured a $1 million grant.

Town Supervisor Kirkham said the project will add water lines, new roads and upgraded sewer or septic systems to revitalize the area.
