What are the White Cap Awards? Contrary to popular belief, they aren’t reserved for older members of our community, those with 'white caps'. Rather, White Caps references the crest of a wave and honors Sea Cliffers of any age who have 'risen above' and demonstrated truly outstanding volunteer service through consistent efforts and genuine care for our village. Thank you White Cap recipients for your service to Sea Cliff!!!!
Our 2025 White Cap honorees are Kristine Janusas, Salvatore Spina and Renee Swanson.
Our 2024 White Cap honoree is Karen Papasergiou.
White Cap honorees for 2023 were Elizabeth Weinstein, Jane McGilloway, Kevin McGilloway and Dina Epstein.
