The school won a professional wireless weather center and the winning East Islip students were given GoPro cameras as prizes, presented on March 21 in a special ceremony at the high school, attended by their families, Photography Club advisers Joy Taylor and Heather Toomey, East Islip Director of Art and Music Stephen Guarino, Cablevision representatives and

Islip Town Councilman Steve Flotteron is pleased to announce that the Par F.O.R.E. program for atrisk youth will once again be available to Islip’s children. The Par F.O.R.E. project (Fellowship, Opportunity, Resilience, and Empowerment) provides golf instruction to at-risk youth within our Town, specifically in the Brentwood, Central Islip, West Islip, and Bay Shore areas. The goal of the program is to expose the participants to an environment free of gang and drug culture. Now entering its seventh year, the Par F.O.R.E. program enjoys discounts at the Brentwood Country Club and Gull Haven Golf Course. “There are many members of our community with reason to be grateful for the Par F.O.R.E. program,” said Councilman Flotteron. “The program is growing by leaps and bounds, and we are proud to be part of their efforts.” Participation in the

program has increased every year since its inception, and will soon be expanding its outreach into the autistic community. Students from Stony Brook University and the Touro College of Health Sciences help mentor the students by bringing them out of the course and steering them toward a better future. “Sports and Fitness opportunities for typical children are plentiful in the Islip Community. Parents of typical children have access to some of the best sports camps and programs in the country. However, children with special needs or exceptional children have limited access to such programs,” said Alex Lopez, of Par F.O.R.E. “Exceptional children are often deprived of opportunities to use their bodies in a manner that would actually help them socially, academically, and developmentally. The program I have developed is looking to level the playing field for exceptional children.”

crucial part in the health of Fire Island, as the beaches elongate and erosion is reversed. This cyclic trend will lead to more room for beachgoers in the 2013 season. Nature isn’t the only thing on the mend after Hurricane Sandy; establishments, such as Maguire’s Bayfront Restaurant in Ocean Beach, are getting ready to open up their doors. There is no doubt that Fire Island will be in “fighting shape” and ready for the masses as we kick off the season with a very solid spring.

The leaves are returning, the water is warming and newly born deer are showing their small heads. As with every April, Fire Island is abuzz with life. After a trip to our barrier island, one can immediately conclude that not everything has been drastically altered by last year’s Hurricane Sandy. At first glance, everything seems as if it was in shambles; but upon further inspection, it is evident that nature is beginning to make a comeback! Vegetation is already starting to fill in all of the damaged areas, and even with the ongoing construction, animals are finally making their way

back out of hiding, onto the beaches and into the water. Seagulls are increasing in number and it seems as if they are thriving. Piping Plover populations have bounced back to a healthy number, considering their spot on the endangered species list. Taking a stroll down the beach, one can already spot patches of Beach Heather, a very common yellow plant, dotting the shoreline. Accounts of whale sightings are becoming less and less frequent, signaling the end to a cold winter, and the beginning of a beautiful summer. All in all, life is finally returning to Fire Island, coincidentally just in time for Earth Day, on April 22nd. Spring is a very

Islip Town Councilman Anthony S. Senft Jr. “Heather Toomey and I would like to acknowledge eiMAPS, which funded the club this year,” said Taylor. “Initially, we were cut from the budget, but their fundraising enabled the club to run. Without them, there would be no Photography Club.”

Spring Track Season The East Islip High School boys spring track season began at home in a dual meet against Half Hollow Hills West on April 3rd. While it felt more like winter than spring, the boys heated things up with some strong performances in several track and field events. Guided by coach Marguerite Gomez, seniors Shane Martenson and Andrew Sharkey scored multiple points for the varsity squad, and as the teams headed into the final relay events, the meet was neck and neck. Fighting valiantly through the cold weather and fatigue, the Redmen narrowly missed a win, with the meet ending with a score of Half Hollow Hills West 77, East Islip 69. Top scorers for East Islip were Zack Acocella with 12 points, Martenson with 10, and Dom Barato, Tom Koppleman and Sharkey with eight points each.

This included two beautifully designed and constructed benches and a welcomed enhancement to the garden plot near the Parish Hall.

I would like to thank all my leaders for teaching me the value of Scouting. I believe with the knowledge I gained, I am well prepared for my future, and ready to pursue my life purpose – to pursue what I love.” Bryan is a 2009 Graduate of East Islip High School, where he was a member of the Choir, Robotics, the Technology Club, and Lacrosse.

NOW IS THE TIME TO DO THAT NEW KITCHEN

The kitchen is arguably the most-used room in the house during waking hours. Having a kitchen that is laid out in an efficient manner can improve productivity and make for a more enjoyable experience. Designers often stress having an effective work triangle in the kitchen.

Expires May 5th, 2013

10 x 10 Kitchens

The phrase “kitchen work triangle” started with the Building Research Council (formerly the Small Homes Council) at the University of Illinois. The idea came from studies of space usage and the search for efficient kitchen designs. What the triangle essentially means is positioning three key items of the kitchen for efficiency. The stove, sink and refrigerator represent the three main points of the triangle. Having these items spaced accordingly can make work easier. Having them too close together can create a cramped, ineffective room. The placement of the triangle points alone does not make a successful layout.

According to the University of Missouri Extension, the triangle space should also be measured accordingly. Put 4 to 7 feet between the refrigerator and sink, 4 to 6 feet between the sink and stove and 4 to 9 feet between the stove and refrigerator, with the ideal size resulting in a work triangle where the three sides total between 15 and 22 feet.

Prepare a deck or patio for entertaining Few things are better than having a functional and beautiful outdoor space to entertain guests. Having a great outdoor space enables a person to host parties or intimate gatherings all year long. Establishing an entertaining space and maintaining that space are essential when planning another year of fun in the sun. There are many things homeowners can do to ensure their entertaining space is safe and functional. As the season approaches, include some landscaping and decorating components to your preparatory plans to make the space as comfortable and aesthetically appealing as possible. Here are a few key tips for readying your yard for entertaining possibilities. Expand on these basics to customize an area for your unique needs. * Check the area for any needed repairs. Prior to your first entertaining session, look over the deck or patio to take note of any flaws that may present safety hazards. Are there any loose railings? Are all screws and nails flush so they do not cause tripping? Are there any cracks in concrete or loose patio blocks? Be sure to remedy all of the repairs needed to ensure guests will be safe. If you are unsure of any structural deficits, consult with a contractor. * Hire a reputable contractor. If you are just laying the groundwork for a new patio or deck, it is important to get the necessary permits and then hire a person who has been properly vetted. Check qualifications and licensing before hiring a contractor and ask to view a portfolio of his or her previous work. Word-of-mouth recommendations from trusted friends and family members are good, and you can also double-check qualifications by contacting the Better Business Bureau to see if any complaints have been lodged or use a service such as Angie’s List to read reviews of his or her work.

for when the sun is too uncomfortable to make sitting outside enjoyable. Similarly, have a sunny area where people can soak up a few rays or dry off after a dip in the spa or pool. Don’t forget to establish a spot for the kids to converge with scaleddown amenities. * Consider a fireplace or fire pit. For centuries man (and woman) has gathered around fire for socialization and a means to warming up. Having a backyard fireplace, pit or chiminea is a conversation-starter, a decorative focal point, and a functional tool to extend the number of seasons in which outdoor entertaining can take place. Place the fire wisely and with concern for safety. It should be out of the way of foot traffic, but central enough so that it can be a gathering point. * Invest in quality outdoor furniture. Today’s yards are extensions of a home’s interior. Guests no longer want to sit on uncomfortable metal or plastic furniture. There are many different outdoor sofas and chairs that are as stylish as they are comfortable. These pieces can be matched to the decor inside your home for a cohesive look. * Accessorize. Consider the creature comforts of indoors and mimic that outdoors. Don’t shy away from hanging artwork on an exterior wall or using urns or pottery to decorate the space. Weather-resistant materials ensure everything from clocks to televisions can be used outdoors. Think about having an entire set of serving dishes and other entertaining items for the outdoors. When refurbishing outdoor entertaining areas, emphasize comfort, safety and functionality.

Outdoor furniture Outdoor entertaining areas have always been popular among homeowners. The ability to entertain friends and family or simply relax by yourself is something homeowners cherish, particularly during the warm weather seasons. Finding the right furniture to match your outdoor area, be it a deck, patio or poolside lounging area, is essential to making the most of this special area of the home. * Weight: Unlike furniture inside the home, outdoor furniture will be moved around quite frequently, such as to protect it from inclement weather or changing seasons. As a result, the weight of the furniture bears importance. While you don’t want furniture that’s too lightweight and will blow away any time a strong gust of wind comes along, it’s a good idea to choose furniture that isn’t too heavy. This makes it easier to move should a storm suddenly appear and it won’t require the entire household to help move the furniture into and out of the garage when inclement weather arrives. * Comfort: The whole idea behind an outdoor entertaining area is to have a relaxing place to spend time outside. So be sure to choose furniture that’s comfortable and can handle the elements. Metal furniture, for example, might be durable, but such furniture can also get very hot if out in the sun. * Versatility: Many homeowners enjoy changing their home’s interior decor from time to time, and it can be just as enjoyable to do the same to a home’s exterior decor. That said, look for furniture that can be accented with a variety of accessories, so you can change the look of your outdoor entertaining area easily.

* Protection: Protecting exterior furniture from the elements should be a priority. When shopping for outdoor furniture, figure out if protective covering is available or if it will need to be custom made. The latter alternative can be quite expensive, so you might want to consider more generic furniture that comes with standard protective coverings to make it more affordable.

How to edge a lawn Edging a lawn is a springtime rite of passage for many homeowners. When winter has come and gone, many lawns are left in need of some serious maintenance, including edging. Well-defined edges around the yard make the yard look more organized and better maintained. And edging is relatively easy, especially for those homeowners with a smaller yard. Edging can be time-consuming for those with more property, but when done properly, edging is definitely worth the effort. * Remove debris from the areas you plan to edge. Before you even begin to edge, be sure to remove any debris from those areas that need edging. Debris, including rocks, twigs or the kids’ toys, left lying around can be kicked up when you’re edging, potentially causing injury to you or someone standing nearby. * Purchase safety goggles. Even if you have removed all visible debris, there still may be some items hidden in the grass. These items can be kicked up and hit you in the eye, so purchase some safety goggles and be sure to wear them whenever you’re edging. As an added precaution, keep kids and others away from any areas you’re edging so they aren’t injured by any unseen debris that

gets kicked up while you’re working. * Check your tools. Edging can be done by using a gas-powered edger or a string trimmer. Before you begin to edge, inspect these tools to ensure they’re capable of handling the task at hand. Inspect the blades on a gas-powered edger to make sure they haven’t dulled since their most recent use. If they are dull, sharpen them before you start to edge. When using a string trimmer, make sure you have enough string on hand to complete the project. String trimmers use a particular kind of string, so visit your local lawn care or hardware store if you don’t feel like you have enough. * Position your edger properly. Once you have given your tools the green light, it’s time to start edging. When you begin, make sure the edger is between the sidewalk or driveway and the edge of the lawn, placing the wheel of the edger on the sidewalk or driveway and then pushing and pulling the edger until you have created a clear edge. If you have never edged before, you may want to practice on smaller, more isolated areas until you become comfortable operating the edger.

GIRL GOLFERS WIN - The East Islip High School varsity girls golf team won their opener on April 4th at Timber Point’s Red course. They beat Bellport, 9-0, and East Islip captain Kendall Allmindiger shot a team-low 46 for the day.

Bunny Welcomes Spring

East Islip High School’s Students Against Destructive Decisions club staged the 10th Annual Grim Reaper Day on March 15th, organized by SADD adviser Bridget Lopiccolo as part of the organization’s yearlong awareness campaign. “We do Grim Reaper Day to bring awareness to the effects of alcohol and the deaths associated with alcohol abuse, whether someone is killed by a drunk driver or commits suicide due to being under

the influence,” Lopiccolo said. As in past years, on Grim Reaper Day a gong sounded every 25 minutes throughout the school day. As it rang out, a SADD student dressed as the Grim Reaper selected and “struck” a randomly selected student to recognize the fact that one person is killed in an alcoholrelated accident every 25 minutes. The students selected as “victims” put on black T-shirts and were

instructed to remain silent for the remainder of the day in order to signify that a life has been impaired or lost due to a destructive decision. “It is a difficult day for all, but it is a necessary reality that we need to address,” said Lopiccolo. “This is a somber day in the high school, and staff and students take it very seriously.” Photo by: Greg Fasolino, Syntax

The “bunnies” of Toddler High were hopping at East Islip High School’s 6th Annual Hop Into Spring Bunny Breakfast on March 20th. High school students enrolled in teacher Kelly Schwender’s parenting course worked with the toddlers weeks before

to create art projects to welcome spring. They made flower gardens, lambs, chicks, bunnies, jumbo butterflies, ladybug windsocks and paper plate frogs crowned by a banner that declared, “Hop into Spring.” Parents and grandparents came to enjoy this special event

along with administration and staff from the high school. “It was a wonderfully festive event to gear us up for spring,” said Schwender. Photo by: Greg Fasolino, Syntax

During their sewing unit, Franzese’s sixthgrade students were taught basic sewing skills such as threading a needle, knotting thread, and sewing on a button. They were then given the opportunity to show off their impressive sewing skills to younger students in the district, teaching elementary school students from Ruth C. Kinney (on January 22nd), Connetquot (on January 23rd) and John F. Kennedy (on January 24th) the proper way to sew on a button. The students sewed their buttons on fabric

in the shape of cancerawareness ribbons. Each button color represented one of 16 different forms of cancer; for example, pink represented breast cancer and purple represented pancreatic cancer. The middle schoolers then helped merge the individual pieces of the patchwork quilt created by the elementary students to create one large quilt. During that session, a speaker from the American Cancer Society was invited to give a presentation about the goals of the organization.

Presented by the East Islip Music Department and the For the Kids Foundation, this year’s high school musical, the charming Bye Bye Birdie, was performed with flair on March 14th, 15th and 16th in East Islip’s Rydzeski Hall. Written by Michael Stewart with lyrics by Lee Adams and music by Charles Strouse, “Birdie” involves ’50s rock ’n’ roll singer Conway Birdie joining the U.S. Army and its effect on teens in a small Ohio town. The story was inspired by Elvis Presley’s stardom and drafting into the U.S. Army, which took place that same year. The original 1960 Broadway production won a Tony Award and was later adapted into a 1963 film and 1995 television program. “The high school musical is always one of the annual highlights of the East Islip School District,” said Board of Education trustee Glenn Reed. “For three nights we were visitors to Sweet Apple, Ohio for a trip back to 1958 and the wonderful times of ‘Bye, Bye Birdie,’ this year featuring the freshmen through seniors, actors NEWEST MARINES - East Islip High School seniors Craig Capobianco, Heriberto to musicians to stage and Escobar, Andrew O’Connor, Owen O’Reilly and George Poulos signed up with the U.S. production crew.” The large cast included Marines on March 21st at an in-school recruiting session.

The East Islip/ Dowling School-Business Partnership participated in a joint project with East Islip Middle School and three of the district’s elementary schools to support World Cancer Day on February 4th, creating a special Cancer Awareness Quilt. “The cancer awareness event was a great opportunity for middle school and elementary students to work together in creating a quilt,” said Dani Franzese, who teaches family and consumer science at the middle school.

Emily Fishman, Catherine Graber, Corey Massina and Noelia Vazquez. Katie Burke-McGoldrick held down the post of assistant to the director, while Caron and DeMaio served as dance captains. “’Bye Bye Birdie’ is a family-friendly and funfilled show,” said East Islip’s musical director, Kate Keating. “The cast, crew, pit and staff all contributed to making this upbeat musical classic come alive. I loved the characters that our students created and was extremely proud of them for all of their hard work and dedication.” Photos by: Glenn Reed

Students are chosen based on their excellence in their general music classes. On March 16th, eleven recorder players participated in the SCMEA Day of Recorder, also known as the Eugene Reichenthal Recorder Festival, at the Brentwood High School Sonderling Center. According to Mr. Bauer, “This festival is an excellent opportunity for each school’s best recorder players, as it gives them a goal to work towards and is a great introduction to the SCMEA festival experience.” Students are chosen based on accomplishment in recorder playing as demonstrated in the classroom. Perserverance In the realm of ideas, everything depends on enthusiasm; in the real world, all rests on perseverance. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Sixteen students from Islip’s Commack Road Elementary School put their musical skills to good use at two festivals sponsored by the Suffolk County Music Educators Association. Five fourth-grade students – Megan Colwell, Jackson Davis, Emilly Goldberg, Jordan Jimenez and Jaelyn McCracken – performed at the SCMEA Parents, Educators and Kids festival, which was held in November. The PEAK festival gives talented fourth-grade students an opportunity to learn and experience music in addition to performing it. The students, their parents and music teacher Michael Bauer were invited to attend morning workshops in various and uncharted realms of music, giving them a unique musical experience and the chance to bring new ideas back to their music classroom.

Being Domestic By: Jamie Lynn Ryan I am not a domestic person by nature. Or, at least, I never thought I was. The whole cooking, cleaning, doing laundry thing just seemed so… boring and tedious. I never wanted to learn, promising my mom that, once the time came for me to move out on my own, I would simply hire a gourmet chef and a maid. Voilá! Problem solved. Right. Well, back in the real world, while the prospect of cooking for myself seemed slightly intriguing, I always had visions of water boiling over onto the stove, clouds of smoke billowing out of the oven…that sort of thing. Laundry was another issue.

Too many compartments, dials, buttons… lights, whites, darks… bleach, fabric softener, water temperatures, load sizes… delicate cycles, special washing and drying instructions… Wouldn’t it be easier to just take everything to the dry cleaners and have them sort it out? Sure, minus the $500 weekly bill maybe. Being a bit of a neat freak – okay, maybe slightly OCD – I’ve actually always enjoyed the vacuuming and dusting part of things, organizing, categorizing... all that fun stuff. Everything but cleaning the windows. I seem to have a small issue with – how would you put it – not making them look even worse than before I touched them. Well, as it turns out, when

you actually come to the point in life when you must learn to do all of these necessary things for yourself – you know, just in case the maid calls in sick one day – it’s really not as hard as it looks. A little reading comprehension, a touch of common sense and lots of advice from Mom & Dad… with some trial and error, most things turn out just fine. That’s not to say I haven’t let a pot or two of water boil a little too ferociously, or had a couple of things get a bit too well done in the oven. But rest assured, no fire departments had to be called in the making of my culinary creations. A small victory. Now if I could only get that fuzzy sweater to be fuzzy again…
