Mineola approves 2 new business openings, honors softball team

The home of the Nassau County Girls Softball champions is about to be home to an indoor pickleball gym and an acupuncture clinic. 

Before hearing presentations from two businesses looking to open in the village, Mineola Mayor Paul Pereira used the first portion of Wednesday’s board of trustees meeting to honor the Mineola High School girls softball team, which ended their season as the Nassau County Champions. The 13-player team, made up mostly of sophomores, is the first to win the title since 1998.
