Manhasset Broadcast Company

Award-winning club is about more than media

BY AMANDA OLSEN

e Manhasset Broadcast Company, or MBC, has had a meteoric rise since its inception in 2020. Going from a single camera and green screen to a full production studio covering events in multiple broadcasts every week, the MBC has taken the high school by storm. Along with its sister program, the broadcast journalism track at the school, students are learning what it takes to make it in the fast paced world of news.

“

We started this program back in 2020, in the heart of the pandemic. The club was founded in tandem with the class, but I would say that we really got rolling in January of 2021. That’s when we released the first episode of our morning show. We call it Good Morning Manhasset. Then from that, we were able to add so many different components and not only grow the classes into a big track at the school, which now goes from Broadcast one to four, but the club became really popular. We now have more than 100 members. We now not only do a morning show once a week, but we do a morning sports show once a week, and we have other content that we put out on the YouTube page,” said Matt Coleman, the club’s faculty advisor.

The shows go up on YouTube and the links are sent to the teachers the day before. The teachers then play it for their classes the following morning on their smartboards, which takes the place of the morning announcements.

MBC operates much as a “real” news organization would, with an editorial calendar, executive board, meetings and discussions. The students are in charge of day-to-day functions and decision making. Helen Murphy, MBC’s news editor, describes the steps involved in keeping this vast operation on track: “As news director, I create an editorial calendar which maps out our episodes for that month and I’ll write in what each segment is. We identify see MANHASSET BROADCAST COMPANY on page 4C

MANHASSET BROADCAST COMPANY from page 3C

what the anchor points are and what roles people need to fill. And then we have our executive board meeting two weeks before our general club meeting. The executive board is basically the leadership of the club, and we need to discuss planning these episodes, how we can help the people, the other students in the club, more how we can advance our skills and our quality of our broadcasts. Then at our full club meetings. We’ll go over general information and we’ll also assign roles for that month. Then then people go off. We’ll keep in contact with them as they work on their segments. Thursdays are final edit days, which means that we’re combining anchor reports and the segments to finalize the episode.”

In their short time, MBC has gained the recognition of a number of organizations. In 2023 alone, MBC won 3rd place in “Best News Story” and 3rd place in “Best Arts, Entertainment & Culture Feature Story” in the Student Television Network (STN) Fall Nationals. They also won first place in the “Best Human Interest Feature” and third place in the “Arts, Entertainment and Culture” categories at the Broadcast Awards for Senior High (BASH) awards.

The members of MBC have some big goals for the coming years, including adding a live sports broadcast and podcasting.

“One of our main goals is always improving the quality of our show and being able to do more real news, especially with our anchoring. We’re also working towards doing a live show on Friday mornings in the next year or two,” said Murphy.

Sara Strasburg, MBC’s creative director, detailed some of the club’s dream projects. “For our sports show, we definitely want to increase membership because we want to be able to cover national sports as well. Right now we’re covering the school sports and what happens with those games, but we would like to be able to broadcast those (national) games and do live commentary on them as well. But specifically for SET sports, we aren’t able to film all of our home games. Here in Manhasset, there’s a very big sports culture. So I think that it would just be something really cool if we were able to do that.”

The MBC does more than just build skills; it has become an essential community within the school. Strasburg stated that within a school that has an emphasis on sports, this club has become a respected and prestigious program. “People say, ‘Oh, you don’t play a sport or what do you do?’ And now you can say, ‘Oh, well, I’m in Good Morning Manhasset. I’m in MBC.’ It’s just become such a well-known thing in our school. And it’s amazing to see how far we have grown. I’ve been in this job

since the first year, and I remember when we literally had to take a roll of green screen, put it on wheels, and then go from classroom to classroom. It’s surreal to see all of this now.”

The club is unique in that it incorporates grades seven through twelve. This special atmosphere allows for long-term mentoring and growth. “When I was a younger person in the club, like I really felt like there were people who I could ask questions, I could learn from. It is so cool to see the kids that

join in middle school are now freshmen and sophomores, and see how much better they are than I was at that age because they started younger. It’s just an awesome thing to watch and also be a part of,” Strasburg said. MBC fills many roles for these students. Having a place to explore and deepen their passions is part of the high school experience. “The greatest part of this program is just watching these students and all the members of this program have a creative

outlet. Sometimes you need to really be able to express your creativity in school. But not only do that just in general, but also with a really collaborative, very video-heavy and content-heavy production style. It’s really interesting to watch them grow within the space. It’s been so gratifying for me because that’s the ultimate goal of being a teacher right? To provide students with the chance to thrive. And they have, and every year they get better and better,” Coleman said.

Manhasset Twins Place In Competitive Skiing

BY COLE MCDONNELL

Madeleine (Poppy) and Dashiell (Dash) Hamilton are 13-year-old twins from Manhasset, who are in eighth grade, and despite living on Long Island, they have found themselves in the snowy hills of upstate New York training with the New York Ski Educational Foundation (NYSEF) Whiteface-Winter Term. e NYSEF is a place that provides opportunities for athletes of all ages to explore their potential in all kinds of snow sports. e Hamilton twins have recently raced in the Hovey Memorial Race and the U14 State Championship race at HoliMont mountain.

They have been skiing since they were three years old because their father skied. They started racing at the age of six because of the improvement they showed as the years went on. “We just started racing when we were young and when we got better, we got more into it,” said Dash.

To pursue their ambition in competitive skiing they have to take off months of school to go upstate and train. They get home-schooled and have to do their homework on the road or at night when all the other kids are sleeping. Their training days start at 8:30 a.m. and stop around noon. They have some half-days and some full-days but in the afternoon they have academics. “Our main coach, Jimbo Johnson, is always pushing us to get better and he’s just really supportive,” says Dash.

In the Hovey Memorial Race, Poppy

finished first overall for U14 Women. “It was really fun, it was at our home mountain so we had an advantage. I got my name on a plaque so that was cool,” said Poppy. Past Olympians have won at the Hovey Memorial Race but despite the twins’ talent, their eyes aren’t set on the Olympics, “It’ll get more and more competitive but right now we are not looking at the Olympics or anything like that,” says Dash.

They also finished high in the HoliMont U14 State Championship race. Poppy finished first in both the Slalom race and the Super G race. Dash finished third in the Super G race as well as seventh in the Slalom race and tenth in the Giant Slalom race. Their next race will be nationally in a Can-Am race that includes both the Eastern and Western portions of the United States and Canada.

“Simply the best! From the first moment we spoke, Renee demonstrated that she is the consummate expert in preparing, marketing, and selling a house. She knows the market inside and out, and understands the importance of timing, inventory, presentation, social media, and pricing. The process went so smoothly that it almost seems like a dream: We decluttered and worked with Renee to arrange our belongings, the house was measured and photographed, then we had one open house. After multiple offers above asking, we were in contract within a week. It could not have gone better - thank you Renee. – Joseph, Seller

“

Renee was instrumental in getting my parents’ house sold quickly and seamlessly. The photos, listing and hands-in approach led to multiple offers within the first 48 hours. Renee is a true professional with many years’ experience to help guide her clients. She is a true pleasure to work with. This is our third transaction with Renee and we look forward to working with her again in the future.

Then And Now

A look back at some Manhasset landmarks

Dutch Reform Church Fire Department

Manhasset was protected by the Hill and Valley Fire Department from 1904 to 1912, when the Manhasset-Lakeville Fire Department was formed. The original firehouse was on Plandome Road near Town Hall.

Town Hall

The original section was built in 1906–1907. Flanking additions were built in 19261928 and the large rear extension was completed in 1955. The original section is three bays wide and two and one half stories high, built of brick with cast stone accents. A copper-domed, eight-sided wooden cupola was added in 1928.

After 1900, several shops started opening up on Plandome Road, which would replace Valley Road as the main street. In 1907, Town Hall opened on Plandome Road and Manhasset became the permanent seat of North Hempstead Town’s government. The Manhasset Long Island Rail Road station is located off Plandome Road in downtown Manhasset. Mary Jane Davies Green is also located off Plandome Road, across the street from North Hempstead Town Hall, on the site of the former Plandome Road School.

The church began with 65 families in the Village of Lake Success (part of Great Neck, New York) in 1732 and moved to its current location in 1816. The present structure was built in 1898 following a fire in 1897. The cemetery has been in use as a burial ground since the early 1800s. Some of the monuments recall individuals who were born in the early to mid 1700s.

Onderdonk house

In 1933 “The Onderdonk Farm” was purchased for development by Levitt & Sons. The historic Onderdonk House remained in its place and was transferred to the Strathmore Association who has maintained it ever since. The House is a recognized landmark and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

Shelter Rock Plandome Road

Shelter Rock is a rock shelter of granite on the border of Manhasset and North Hills. Native Americans used the rock as shelter from the elements, possibly as early as 1000 B.C. The top of the boulder is just visible from Shelter Rock Road, more so in the colder parts of the year when the vegetation recedes.

Meet Christine Liu, Newly Elected Councilwoman For District Four

BY AMANDA OLSEN

We sat down recently with Councilmember Christine Liu, representative for District Four on the Town of North Hempstead Board, to discuss public service, family and diversity. is interview has been edited for length and clarity.

AO: Please introduce yourself.

CL: I am the newly elected town council person for District Four, and the first Asian American town council person, I believe, not just for our town, or Nassau County, but for all of Long Island. So it’s quite historic in many, many respects, I think.

I grew up in Queens. I went to school in the city, then went to NYU, and then went to law school. I got an Assistant Chief Counsel position with the Department of Justice, but then in 2003, that’s when Homeland Security was formed, and immigration/naturalization services moved from the Department of Justice to Homeland Security. So that’s where I was for most of my legal career.

And then, when I was pregnant with my second, I decided I was going to take a break. We were living in Forest Hills at the time, and we were kind of outgrowing our apartment, so we decided to move out east.

AO: How did you get started with public service?

CL: I just immersed myself in the school district and started with the PTA. I think for a lot of parents that’s where their second career begins. That branched out to Girl Scouts and Little League and all the other community activities.

The Office of Asian affairs was getting started (at that time) and I guess they were looking for community leaders to help join an advisory council there. So somebody had given my name to somebody at the county. They reached out and said, ‘Would you be willing to come and join? It’s a volunteer position, but we need eyes and ears of the community. When we have things that we roll out that you can share and if you have concerns in the community, you share with us.’ I enjoyed that role I think since 2017, 2018. Then in the town of North Hempstead, former Town Supervisor Judy Bosworth found me somehow and asked if I could join the Asian American Advisory Committee there. So I did that as well.

Then Gina Sillitti got elected and she was looking for a liaison. Somebody introduced us and she asked to interview me, and we got along really great. Because I was still very involved in the community and my kids were still kind of young, she let me come on part time. And I said, ‘Okay, this is great, get my feet back into the work world.’ And it was good because I was the community liaison, so it was still working with the community and whatever issues or events they had. It was a very good fit.

AO: What made you decide to run for office?

CL: They asked me very early on, maybe July of that year, and I gave them my answer about four months later, I decided not to, and my husband was not on board, because I was already out of the house a lot. A number of people started talking to us about how important this seat was and how important it was to have Asian representation; the Town of North Hempstead is almost 30 percent Asian, and this district, I think it was about 40 percent Asian. So they said it would be great for the community and for the town. So we thought about it some more and things kind of lined up. My mom moved into our place. She was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I’m here now you don’t have to worry about cooking. You don’t have to worry about shopping or anything. I can drive the kids.’ I was a lot more comforted, I didn’t have that guilt of not knowing how my kids were doing. They were very well taken care of. My kids were very supportive. ‘Why don’t you try this? I think you’ve been supporting us so it’s now our turn to support you.’ My husband seems to be on board now. So this probably was the right time. I had a lot of support from the community. And so I said yes.

AO: Please share more about your heritage.

CL: My grandparents are from China. They went to Taiwan during the civil unrest. Then my parents: my father was born in China, but my mom was born in Taiwan. They got married in Taiwan, and I was born in Taiwan. But I emigrated here when I was one and then moved straight to Queens and I’ve been here ever since.

AO: Do you find yourself bridging the two cultures?

CL: So you have a lot of your values, your upbringing, even though I was brought up here but my parents grew up in Taiwan, so they’re bringing their traditions and cultures here with them. So I have that. But then I also grew up here so I have all the values and cultures and when I was raised here and schooling and education, and then my kids are on a totally separate level. So I am in that bridge, especially since I can speak Chinese, even though I’ve been here most of my life.

AO: What was that like for you, being bilingual?

CL: Everybody is so impressed by that actually. My mom is in all of her glory. So every time people say, ‘Why you don’t have an accent? How do you know how to do that?’ And my mom, she says, ‘It’s all because of me,’ because we had to speak Chinese at home. I would say because of that, I don’t have to translate what I’m going to say in either language. It just comes very naturally.

The high school that I went to had Chinese, so I took Chinese and French. Then in college I kept that up and one of my majors was East Asian studies. Then I actually went to this church, it was a mainly Chinese speaking congregation. So all of those aunties and uncles were all speaking to me in Chinese. So I was developing my Chinese even further.

AO: What is it like representing such a diverse district?

CL: We have so many celebrations, which is great, and it’s beautiful. We just finished Lunar New Year. I think the supervisor was making a comment she had attended about 16 Lunar New Year celebrations. I didn’t have 16; I probably had about eight to ten. And I’ll expect that for Diwali and things of that nature. So it’s really nice. We had St. Patrick’s Day this month and a nice parade. I remember last year and the whole Christopher Columbus Day and we did Italian Heritage Month. That was nice to have in October. Then the Korean

community also has their festivals, so I think it’s beautiful. We have Christmas, Easter and everything else in between.

What’s important is people feel validated. They feel a sense of belonging and identity and something that it’s not just to be aware, my new movement is we don’t want to just promote Asian culture and awareness. You want to be proud to be Asian American. You want to be proud to be Italian American, Irish American. Moving from a simple event and awareness to actually being proud and owning it and sharing it with everybody. That’s the transition I would like to see.

We’re trying, we’re making strides, and I want to say during the pandemic, it was hard with a lot of the Asian hate. We’re seeing a lot of hate and all forms kind of everywhere across the country. We’re not going to see that here in Long Island. But I would say that in the Town of North Hempstead, every time it rears its ugly head, we stomp it out right away. We call our press conferences. We get our police to investigate. The police commissioner came down when the Great Neck Chinese Association banner was defaced at the train station. He said, ‘We’re investigating right away and this is not tolerated,’ and it didn’t happen again.

AO: How does it feel to be making history while serving your community?

CL: I’ve made so many wonderful friends during this time. That is how this community came about and became supportive. I can’t tell you how many people were saying you should do this. This is how you should help our community. To the fact that running for student council because [they were inspired by the campaign.] One mom reached out and she showed me a speech that her daughter was making. She was running for student government in fourth grade. And her mom was like, ‘Why do you want to do this?’ and she said, ‘It’s because I see all the signs. So maybe they could be for me too.’ I kind of choked up, actually. Grace Meng and Shawn Liu, they opened up the door for people like me. I feel like I can open up doors for all of the community and Long Island, too.

From our initial consultation to the successful closing, my proven system consistently delivers outstanding results, even in the most complex transactions, always with my clients’ best interests at heart.

Heather Menzies Designs Turns One

BY AMANDA OLSEN

Heather Menzies has always known she wanted to make clothes. She got her start at eight, sewing in her 4H club, and moved to New York after college with little more than a suitcase. She worked as a pattern and sample maker for various New York companies, including Ellen Tracy, where she had celebrity clients and saw her designs in runway shows. Later in life, she worked with dressmakers in Great Neck and Port Washington. is year marks the rst anniversary of her solo business crafting bespoke garments out of her unique 1930s home studio. Recently, I embarked on the journey of making a custom piece with Heather.

Consultation

e process for creating a one-of-akind piece with Menzies starts with a consultation to determine if she is a good t for the design. It’s important to work with someone who has a similar aesthetic. Menzie’s designs tend to be feminine, with soft details and sparkle. At our initial meeting, we discussed silhouettes and fabrics and went over a few examples of my dream out t.

Sketch design

Next, since I am a tiny bit artistic, I went home and drew up some sketches. I did a couple of the structured, multi-layer outts we had discussed and a few elaborate evening wear ideas. For people who aren’t inclined to draw, photos of garments with the elements you are looking for will get the ball rolling. We chose a statement jacket with a simple shift style dress underneath.

Take measurements

is step, while necessary, can certainly be unpleasant. It’s important to remember that you are commissioning a custom dress; you want it to t exactly right. So let the designer take your measurements as your body truly is.

Buy fabric is was an experience I will never forget. I have seen Mood on TV but never had the opportunity to go there before. I met Menzies inside the store and was immediately overwhelmed with the sheer

volume of fabric available. Because we had already talked about my preferences, she took us over to wool rst. I was considering a light wool for the jacket and linen for the dress. Nothing really jumped out in the wool section, although there were some lovely tweeds. Next we looked at knits, but it was the same. In the boucles we found several interesting choices, but it wasn’t until we were moving on that I saw a gorgeous purple plaid. ere were so many subtle colors in the pattern; I was in love. e linens we bought for the dress were woven in two di erent colors, shifting between the two tones as it moved. A plain wool for the

The mock-up of the design.

cummerbund completed the choices. Draft pattern is step could come after taking the measurements. It is fairly straightforward; a paper pattern of each piece of the dress is made.

Sew mock up, t and make changes ese connected steps are essential to getting the piece perfect. e mock up gets

sewn in an inexpensive fabric to test how the pattern ts on the body. You come to the studio and put on the mock up, and Menzies makes adjustments. My tting went very smoothly. We decided on the length of the coat, the sleeves, and where the neckline should fall. Menzies was attentive and helpful throughout, o ering ideas and alternatives until we were both satis ed.

Stay tuned for part 2!
