Autism Seminar Set Scheduled this year to coincide with Autism Awareness Month, The Flying Point Foundation for Autism has again joined forces with Southampton Hospital and the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, Division of Emergency Medical Services to bring a seminar to Long Island that will help first responders and others not usually accustomed to interacting with those with autism better understand and react to the special circumstances that can arise in an emergency situation.

This year two seminars will be offered. The first is geared toward first responders and firefighters but is equally as relevant to anyone who might have to interact with an individual with autism in a tense situation. It was created by a Massachusetts firefighter who is also the father of a son with autism and featured on NBC’s Today show. It will be presented

by Jason Dorval, also a

firefighter and the father of child with autism. The second, similar to the first seminar, is geared toward law enforcement, security, school support and hospital support personnel. Both will be held at Hampton Bays Middle School on Saturday, April 6th. The first starting at 9:30 a.m. and the second at 1 p.m.

Dorval, a certified public fire and life safety instructor and presenter for the Autism Law Enforcement Education Coalition (ALEC), will discuss identifying characteristics of behaviors of a person with an Autism Spectrum Disorder, the fastest growing neurobiological condition in the world.

A person with ASD has an impaired ability to communicate, which can result in a high risk call for responders. The seminar will discuss special tactics, rescue techniques and how to effectively communicate with a person with ASD, as well as ways to build relationships with the ASD community.

“As a parent of a child with autism and a firefighter, I know firsthand that working with a developmentally disabled child can be challenging. Their lack of understanding, limited communication, and other special needs can be a huge problem in an emergency situation. This course will prepare first responders to better understand these individuals and react accordingly,” said Dorval.

Flying Point Foundation founder Kim Covell said the feedback from last year’s seminar was so positive that it was important to offer it a second time and expand its scope to include anyone who might interact with individuals with autism.

The county has again approved first responders receiving three hours noncore professional credit for taking the seminar, added Covell.

“The techniques and tools that each responder will learn in this seminar will be helpful to the

patient, as well the provider by instilling confidence that he or she will be able to handle any situation that arises,” said Tom Lateulere, chief of education and training for the Suffolk County EMS Division.

The seminars are open to anyone who wishes to learn more about communicating with an individual with autism in a special situation. First responders who wish to obtain credit for attending the course should register through the Suffolk County Department of Health Services, Division of Emergency Medical Services at 631.852.5800.

All others should register by emailing info@ fpf4autism.org.

Checkin opens at 9 a.m. for the morning session and a light breakfast will be served; check-in for the afternoon session will begin at noon and refreshments will be served.

One of the best times of the year to visit the Game Farm is early spring, when many of the animals have given birth to newborns.

The Game Farm is expecting the births of new animals. “Once you walk into the Game Farm, take in the beauty of springtime and you may witness the magic of birth,” said Ms. Novak.

which provides a comfort and familiarity level to those veterans seeking assistance.

Funding for the program was secured by Senator Lee Zeldin in the amount of $200,000 through the pilot phase of the program.

“The Peer to Peer program is needed in Suffolk County as we have seen a rise of military suicides in our country,” said County Executive Bellone. “Those who are serving or who have served our country need our support and resources and the Peer to Peer program is designed to address the needs of the military community suffering from PTSD.” Suffolk County was chosen as a pilot County because of its large and diverse veteran population coupled with its reputation for delivering quality

PFC Dwyer suffered from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and lost his battle with PTSD. The Peer To Peer program is overseen by the Suffolk County Veteran’s Service Agency and is designed to serve veterans, active duty, reserve and National Guard troops suffering from PTSD and allows veterans the opportunity to share and discuss their issues and problems with trained veteran personnel.

Season Kickoff

On March 15th, close to 300 of Long Island’s best high school students convened at Dowling College in Oakdale, to take part in the 4th Annual Long Island Youth Summit.

Participants of the Summit presented possible solutions to a variety of problems ranging from protection of water and open space to racial and economic inequalities to teenage abuse of prescription drugs. Student finalists, who submitted original research projects in the form of essays, artwork and videos, attended the half-day Summit, where they worked with top experts to explore solutions for Long Island.

The Summit is a publicprivate partnership between Dowling College, the North Shore-LIJ Health System, Citizens Campaign for the Environment, Vision Long Island and participating high school districts on Long Island, with students from 21 school districts in both Suffolk and Nassau counties submitting

original research projects to the Summit Winner Selection Committee. On the day of the conference, winners received awards in every Summit topical category.

In addition, students received awards for best science research paper, best original video, best original art, best original photo art, and the overall top prize of Best Project of the 2013 Long Island Youth Summit.

Summit award winners are listed below.

“We had a very productive day where the current generation of leaders worked with the future generation of leaders,” said Dr. Nathalia Rogers, cochair of the Long Island Youth Summit Steering Committee and director of the American Communities Institute at Dowling College. “The purpose of the Summit is to work with the brightest high school students to further their analytical and leadership abilities for the benefit of Long Island’s future.

Our Summit partners,

which include high school teachers from many public schools and organizations such as the North ShoreLIJ Health System, Citizens Campaign for the Environment, Vision Long Island and others, worked hard to make this program a success.”

This year’s Summit started with a keynote address by Donald Monti, president and CEO of Renaissance Downtowns.

Mr. Monti spoke to students about the importance of becoming leaders and being active in building the social and economic future for Long Island through investment in Smart Growth-type planning, as well as building communities that will allow for economic growth and environmental preservation.

This year’s Summit featured nine topical workshops that covered environmental, sociomedical and community issues.

Of Spring & Weathering The Storm By: Jamie Lynn Ryan So spring is here, the groundhog(s) lied, etc… we’ve heard it all ad nauseum over the past week. Here’s a newsflash: just because the calendar noted the vernal equinox doesn’t mean Mother Nature automatically obliges with shining rays of sunshine and flower blossoms sprouting from every patch of newly green grass.

We’ve all had a rough winter. Autumn too, come to think of it. What began with the last golden notes of summer seemed to segue abruptly into hurricanes and blizzards with funny names who left none-too-funny paths of destruction in their

wakes. And now, five months later, most of us are still in the midst of cleaning up and “getting back to normal.” In fact, for some, that process is just beginning.

Five months later. Crazy.

Pretty soon, we will be counting down the days to beach season, hoping against hope that there will be some small sliver of sand and surf left to enjoy, never mind functional roads to get there.

And then – oh yes – the next hurricane season will be upon us, when all residents of Long Island will hold their collective breath and hope (preferably within the walls of their newly reconstructed homes) that last year’s oncein-a-lifetime storm was only

that. (Please.)

We claim to love living in an area that is fortunate to feature four unique seasons, each with their own benefits and annoyances; yet, with each month we seem to find more reasons to complain.

Too cold? Where’s spring?

Oh wait, now my allergies are acting up… Can’t wait for summer? Never mind – now the humidity is too high. Is autumn here yet? Brrrr… and the cycle continues.

Rest assured, spring – in all its glory – will be upon us before you know it. Don’t hate the groundhog – he’s just a poor little furry rodent who was rudely awakened by being wrenched from his hole in the ground.

as doctors, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, dentists and pharmacists can help smokers by bringing up the subject with patients.

To assist with that, Legacy and Pfizer have developed a downloadable, userfriendly guide for health care providers to help them discuss smoking and tobacco use with their patients.

Here are hints to help: • Talk openly about smoking. Ask every patient if they smoke. This may open the door to successful intervention.

• Be positive and encouraging.

Smokers are often dealing with shame or fear of quitting.

Congratulate the smoker on the decision to quit and reiterate how you are there to help them on their journey.

• Encourage smokers not to give up. Smoking is a chronic, relapsing medical condition; the average smoker tries to quit 6/9 times in their lifetime.

Remind smokers that quitting is difficult, but can be attainable.

• Make sure smokers understand smoking for what it really is: a treatable medical condition.

• Suggest patients consider evidence-based treatments, such as overthe-counter or prescription medications, and refer them to counseling to help them quit. Patients can call the national toll-free quitline, (800)-QUIT-NOW, for free counseling or seek help from no-cost websites such as www.BecomeAnEX.org.

• Arrange follow-up contact as necessary to try to prevent relapse. More than 45 million Americans currently smoke and an estimated 70 percent of them want to quit, but lack the tools to do so.

Committing to quit is the crucial first step toward becoming smoke free.

Speaking with your health care provider can help you during this process.

(NAPSI)-It’s easy for teens to pretend they’re older than they are online, but it doesn’t mean they’re ready for anything the Internet can tharow at them.

By monitoring and engaging teens about their online activity, parents can help them exercise selfcontrol, report problems— and make smarter, safer decisions.

Even the best kids from the most loving families take risks and get carried away when socializing or gossiping with friends— and they don’t want you to know about it.

Did You Know?

• 65 percent of high school students admit to unsafe or illegal activities online.

• 30 percent of teens have talked with a cyberstranger about meeting in person.

• 32 percent clear the

browser history to hide online activity from their parents.

• 64 percent post photos or videos of themselves online.

• 73 percent use social networking websites.

Tips for Reducing Risky Behaviors Be proactive. Don’t wait for a crisis to happen before addressing online safety.

Remind your teen about rules and consequences, and stay engaged in the process. Other tips include: • Explore the Internet together.

• Enforce ground rules and time limits.

• Become their friend on social networking sites.

• Learn about privacy settings and set them appropriately.

• Trust but verify by installing monitoring software on their computer.

(NAPSI)—To help protect you and your family from tobacco-related death and disease, researchers from Legacy®, a national public health organization dedicated to building a world where anyone can quit smoking, recommend two actions: stop smoking or never start. If you do smoke or use tobacco, speak to your doctor about quitting smoking.

A survey of more than 3,146 adults in the U.S. conducted by Legacy discovered that more than one in 10 smokers have concealed their smoking status from a health care provider—nearly half of them stated it was because they are ashamed that they smoke. Another reason for not disclosing this important information to a medical professional: twothirds surveyed who did not disclose their smoking status reported not wanting to be lectured about smoking.

Fortunately, health care professionals such

Knowing what they’re doing online is as easy as checking your own e-mail, with remote monitoring software such as eBlaster from SpectorSoft. It can inform you of searches for topics such as “depression” or “drugs.” It can also warn you if others are teasing them or daring your child to GNOC (get naked on camera).

SPECIAL FULL-COLOR PULL-OUT SECTION

Green spaces are more than just pretty spaces; it has a real effect both psychologically and physically on a child’s life!

On Thursday night, March 14th, over 60 business leaders, civic leaders, educators and environmentalists attended the Long Island Nature Collaborative for Kids (LINCK), a project of The Early Years Institute, 1st Annual Celebrate Green Friendraiser honoring environmental author, Angela de Caprariis-Salerno and artist, Harriet Carotenuto, who authored the book entitled for LINCK, What If There Was No Color Green? The event was

held at the Planting Fields Arboretum, in Oyster Bay, which also included a reading of the book to all attendees.

Research shows when children spend time in nature it improves their overall health by increasing physical activity, enhancing creativity, reducing stress levels and acts as a support mechanism for attention disorders. According to Trish Manzi, Director of LINCK, “When children spend unstructured time in nature it is one of the best cure-alls for whatever ails them. It’s one of the best things to include in a child’s life – and it’s free!“ All proceeds from the event and book sale will

be dedicated to the Long Island Nature Collaborative for Kids programs that promote healthy lifestyles and outdoor play for all young children.

The Early Years Institute, a regional nonprofit organization based in Plainview, serves as a catalyst for community partnerships and innovations to ensure all young children, ages 0-8, have the opportunities they need to succeed in school and life.

EYI is viewed as a trusted source of information and a thought leader on early childhood education, development and learning. Visit www. eyi.org.

The Guilds of Good Samaritan recently presented a check for $60,000 to The Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation to support the hospital’s Emergency Department (ED) and Intensive Care Unit (ICU).

This most recent Guild donation will enhance emergency care with the acquisition of video guided devices used by physicians during an intubation

procedure. The Guild’s donation will also support the renovation of the hospital’s ICU waiting area.

Good Samaritan’s Emergency Department sees nearly 100,000 patients yearly - the highest of any other hospital on Long Island.

Every day, Long Island residents rely on Good Sam to treat serious illness as well as injuries ranging from burns and broken

bones to injuries sustained in car accidents or other life-threatening incidents.

As a NYS Designated Level II Trauma Center, Good Samaritan has the expertise, technology and other resources to care for those in need.

Grant Boosts Book Collection

Bay Shore Schools Brook Avenue students are enjoying new books purchased with money from the Laura Bush Grant, awarded last June.

The generous $5,000 grant was able to help the library in a variety of capacities. Foremost, it

was designated to update and expand the entire collection. It is especially responsible for our ability to increase and broaden the scope of our Spanish and Bilingual books.

The timing was fortuitous, too, as the nonfiction needs elaborated

by the Common Core Learning Standards were able to be addressed.

Once again, Brook Avenue extends thanks to the Laura Bush Foundation for the positive and significant impact to our library and school.

Syosset Hospital chefs sliced their way through the North Shore-LIJ Health System’s Ultimate Chef Healthy Entrée Challenge competition on Thursday, placing first in the second annual cooking competition for their filet mignon marinated in chili pepper, tequila and lime juice with wild rice and celery root as well as a mango and jicama salsa dish.

“It’s a great validation to be recognized for the meals we prepare at Syosset Hospital and for providing nutritious and tasty dishes to our patients,” said Syosset Hospital chef Russell Ficke, who took home the top prize along with chef Xavier Haynes.

Mr. Haynes noted, “All of the chefs served up inventive meals today.

It’s fun to have a day like this with some friendly competition that also shows off our quality work throughout the health system.”

During last year’s competition, Syosset Hospital took third place.

Chefs Aneesah Cox and Natrell Fisher from Staten Island University Hospital

took second place this year for their chipotlerubbed pork tenderloin with garlic brown rice pilaf, curry yogurt sauce, mango chutney and collard greens. Lenox Hill chefs Patricia Sobol and Johnny Beniquez were in third place with their shrimp dish that had a tomato saffron broth and a parsnip and celery root puree; chefs from Lenox Hill were in second place last year.

Chefs from 13 of North Shore-LIJ’s hospitals and facilities diced, sautéed and blanched at Glen Cove Hospital’s Pratt Auditorium during the competition to create tasty, appealing and healthful dishes. The competition, which was held during National Nutrition Month, helps to show that hospital food can not only be healthful but it also surpasses the stereotypes of being bland and boring.

During the competition, chefs had access to a pantry, stove top burners and a farmers’ market.

Each team was given 45 minutes to make a nutritious and delicious meal that was rated by three judges -- Adrian

Ashby, an administrative associate at North ShoreLIJ who competed on Food Network’s “Chopped”; Joyce Shukri, RD, a healthcare specialist at Sysco Foods; and Robert Graham, MD, a physician at Lenox Hill Hospital who specializes in complementary and integrated medical therapies. All of the dishes had to be no more than 500 calories, 15 grams of fat and 600 milligrams of sodium; health system registered dieticians evaluated these recipes.

“People may not realize this but our patients often enjoy the food we prepare at our facilities and rank it alongside that of restaurants,” said Michael Kiley, director of nutrition and food services at Glen Cove Hospital and chair of the North Shore-LIJ Health System’s chef committee. He also organized the cooking competition. “Events such as this show that our staff can prepare diverse, tasty and nutritious meals for our patients to savor when they come to our facilities.”

Showing Their Chops

Moody’s Math Challenge

On Saturday, March 2nd, four Bay Shore High School Math whizzes participated in the Moody’s Mega Math Competition, sponsored by the Society for Industrial and Applied Mathematics (SIAM) and the Moody’s Foundation, which aims to promote education, particularly in the fields of mathematics, finance, and economics.

The stakes of Moody’s Mega Math Challenge have always been high: thousands of students competing for thousands of dollars in scholarships, not to mention bragging rights, as veteran schools face off against a surge of newcomers eager to prove their credibility. More than 5,800 high schoolers in 29 eastern states registered for this year’s contest, eager to work on this year’s

Challenge Problem: Waste Not, Want Not: Putting Recyclables In Their Place.

The competition works like this: teams of 3 to 5 students (Juniors and Seniors only) are given a singular, previously undisclosed Math problem and asked to develop a strategy to solve that problem.

Assigned problems tend to involve mathematical modeling and mathematics applied to real world scenarios.

The teams are given fourteen hours (from 7 AM to 9 PM) to research, develop their answer and submit a written response that addresses the assigned problem in its entirety. If a team’s answer is selected from among the many submitted, those students will have a chance to present their solution

before a panel of judges, as well as earn money towards college tuition.

The Bay Shore High School students competing in this year’s Moody’s Math Competition were Junior Tim Bryant, Senior Emmet Farnan, Senior Patrick Hesselbach, and Junior Mehrab Hoque.

These driven students were supervised by Middle School Math teacher Mr. James Carr, who helped prepare the students, supervised their work on the day of the competition (although he was not permitted to help them in any way), and worked as a liaison between the team, our school district and Moody’s. Bay Shore wishes these hard-working students luck as they await the results of their labor.

Cub Scout activities will include archery, BB shooting, craft and science stations. Older Boy Scouts will ride BMX bike trails, participate in archery shooting, tomahawk throwing, pioneering and orienteering while camping at the park.

In addition to the ageappropriate activities, dozens of Long Island organizations will be set up in the Exhibit Area. Fire and Police departments, military groups and local clubs will be found in the Merit Badge “Midway.”

Scouting Museum Exhibits will transport the participants back to the early days of Scouting in

Suffolk County. Patches, mugs, early pictures and uniforms will be on display.

Saturday night will conclude with the “Big Show” featuring some great local entertainment and an amazing laser light finale. The entire event will celebrate the spirit of Scouting, which continues to thrive in Suffolk County.

Supporters Turn Out Rain mixed with snow that signaled the early stages of a nor’easter failed to dissuade 200 guests from attending The Friends of Mercy Medical Center’s 47th Annual Gentlemen’s St. Patrick’s Dinner.

Returning to a familiar venue at the Hempstead Golf and Country Club, the March 7th black-tie event honored State Senator Dean G. Skelos, Republican Conference Leader, Temporary President and co-Leader of the State Senate’s historic majority governing coalition.

Dr. Alan Guerci, Mercy’s president and CEO, was presented with a check for $170,000 representing the proceeds of The Friends’ 2012 fund-raising efforts which were pledged to support the hospital’s Level III Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU), the only facility on the south shore of Nassau County designated by New York

State as being staffed and equipped to provide specialized complex care to all premature and sick newborns.

The event was chaired

by Andrew E. Healey of Rockville Centre, a longtime member and past president of The Friends, and was sponsored by Neurological Surgery, PC the largest private neurosurgery practice on Long Island.

“The St. Patrick’s Dinner is one of the most significant fund-raisers for the Medical Center,” noted Friends President Dr. Marc DiSciullo of Muttontown, “And we are deeply grateful to our sponsor and attendees and to those who did not attend but supported the event nonetheless.”

East Islip Middle School held its sixth annual Breakfast of Champions on the morning of March 12th. Honored at the breakfast were sixth- and seventh-grade students who demonstrated the “Six Pillars of Character” during the 2012-13 school year. Each was selected by a team or department at the middle school.

After greetings from Assistant Principal Janet Jones, Principal Mark Bernard and Assistant Principal Christian Seifert presented each of the honorees with a

certificate and lanyard.

Upon completion of the ceremony, the students, their families and the middle school’s staff members enjoyed sharing breakfast together.

For the sixth grade, the students recognized were Connor Barnes, Max Calarco, Johanna Christiansen, Anthony Conigliaro, Jessica Giambruno, Brooke Hommel, Olivia Hoppe, Victoria Keenan, Robert Kurtz, Madison Lane, Brian McCarthy, Timothy Meier, Stephanie Milito, James Mooney, Courtney

Morena, Melissa Sconone and John Sidorski.

Timber Point Celebration

Timber Point Elementary School’s student council joined forces with teacher Gail Rhatigan’s morning pre-kindergarten class on March 14th for a St. Patrick’s Day project.

Each child in Rhatigan’s class was teamed up with

a fourth- or fifth-grade student council “buddy.”

The “big buddies” wrote St. Patrick’s Day cards to their “little buddies” before their meeting.

“Everyone was excited and the event was a huge success,” said Rhatigan,

who said that she and student council advisers Rose Behar and Cathy Boudart discussed future collaborative projects between the student council and pre-K students.

Local Children Donate

New Museum To Be Formed Islip Town Councilman Steve Flotteron and the members of the Islip Town Board are pleased to announce that an agreement has been reached with the Friends of Islip Town Firefighters (FITF) for the construction and operation of a firefighting museum. The agreement will let FITF establish a public display of antique and modern firefighting equipment that will be open to the public.

“Getting this project off the ground has been a passion of mine for some time now,” said Councilman Flotteron. “I believe we have found the perfect location for this facility and the Town Board is proud to contribute this land to the Friends of Islip Town Firemen.”

“This is a long overdue tribute to the extraordinary sacrifice and heroism of the men and women of our fire services,” said Supervisor Tom Croci.

“They risk their lives and some have perished protecting our families and our community. Islip is proud to be the home of this new landmark.”

Ed Tully, speaking on behalf of the Friends of Islip Town Firefighters, said “We are grateful to the Town for allowing us to move ahead with this project. This is something that has been a dream of this organization for a long time, and will be a great resource not just for Islip’s firefighting community, but the Islip community at-large.”

The license agreement is in effect for forty-nine

years, but can be renewed during that time. Although situated on Town land, members of FITF will be responsible for the construction, maintenance and operation of the public display and the property grounds.

Councilwoman Trish Bergin Weichbrodt welcomed local Junior Girl Scout Troop 1259 as they donated gift baskets to the animals at Islip Animal Shelter and Adopt-a-Pet Center last week. The girls donated a number of gift baskets full of different foods, treats, and toys for each dog and cat at the shelter.

“These girls have done an amazing thing, donating to these homeless animals.

It makes me proud to see people so young already

have such a big heart and such a great appreciation for community and service to those in need,” said Councilwoman Trish Bergin Weichbrodt. “Kids like these give me the utmost faith in future generations to continue to do what is good and what is right. They have done an incredibly selfless act and the Town is so very thankful for them.”

Along with these donations, the shelter has also recently accepted a large donation of dog food

and dog collars and leashes from Sean Martin, founder of Kids Adopt a Shelter.

Sean, at the young age of only 12 years old, founded and currently runs an organization that collects pet food, treats, toys, collar, and more for shelters in need throughout Long Island.

“We are grateful for the support of our generous donors, the EJ Autism Foundation and NSASA,” said Principal Deborah Smith. “The students immediately began to successfully exercise on the equipment as soon as they saw the fitness pieces.

When the PTA at Ruth C. Kinney Elementary created this year’s Peace Out With PARP Parents As Reading Partners program for the school’s students, Principal Danielle Naccarato decided to up the ante.

“My challenge to them was to read over 55,000 minutes during those two weeks, and if they Their smiles lit up the succeeded, I would dress room and their excitement up as a hippie,” explained was contagious.”

The inclusive spirit of this adaptive gym fits right in with Connetquot’s ethos. “We at Connetquot teach to the whole ‘PIE’ – the physical, intellectual and emotional side of every child,” Smith added.

Naccarato, whose costume certainly entertained her students. “Not only were they successful, but they actually read over 79,000 minutes in total.”

For the two weeks of PARP, a reading program that encourages families to read together, the actionpacked RCK schedule included the “Score a Goal for Reading” soccer event, the Bodacious Book Show,

“Wear a Tie-Dye Shirt Day,” “Mystery Staff Reader Day,” “Read My Shirt Day,” “Mystery Parent ReadAloud,” afternoon and evening book fairs, and a visit to the East Islip Public Library.

“It was a great program, and Melissa Smith, the PTA chairperson of this year’s PARP, did a great job organizing it all,” said Naccarato.

Tribute To Veterans

Peter Cerreta, an 88 year old veteran and retiree of NASA was recently honored

by The Bristal in Westbury and Genser Dubow Genser & Cona (GDGC), elder law and estate planning law firm in Melville. A resident of the assisted living facility, Peter was joined by his nieces and nephews at the event attended by over 60 people. After suffering a stroke a few years ago, his family relocated him from Virginia to Long Island.

“We honored Peter for his contributions and experience during Work War II as well as for his participation in our activities at The Bristal where he always exhibits kindness to residents and staff,” says Anne Madsen, activity director, The Bristal. “Peter loves to go on outings to beaches and parks and helps other residents by carrying coolers and serving food.”

Drafted while he was at New York University, he was taught to fly the C46, the largest two-engine cargo plane built by the

U.S. Requiring a team of four to fly the plane, they went all over the world delivering aviation gas and supplies to foreign ports.

After discharge from the service, Peter graduated NYU with a degree in Aeronautics. Starting his career at the David Tyler Model Basin, Peter worked with a group that built a trans-sonic wind tunnel and personally tested a Zeppelin airship there.

Considered an expert in his field, he worked at NASA testing several rocket designs for the Apollo Space program.

In addition to honoring Peter, GDGC and The Bristal presented the four winners of a student art contest entitled “These Colors Don’t Run” with a Visa gift card and certificate. “We sponsored the contest to give youngsters an opportunity to show their creativity in thanking local Veterans and their families for the services they gave to our country,” explains Melissa Negrin-Wiener, Esq.,

partner at GDGC. From 146 entries, the four winners from elementary and middle schools on LI were selected based on creativity, originality and language used to exemplify the contest theme.

Now, their work is displayed at GDGC’s Susan C. Snowe Caregiver Resource Center, a community resource that offers free information to seniors and their families.

The winners included: • Joseph Quaranta, 10, Central Islip • Andrew Perez, 6, Islip Terrace • Emma DeStefano, 11, Deer Park • Melanie Regan, 13 West Islip At the event, Melissa presented information on the VA Aid and Attendance pension benefit that gives veterans and their spouses a monthly stipend for care at home or in an assisted living facility.

So far, GDGC has completed over 200 applications as a pro bono service to Veterans.

SCMEA Scholarship

Timber Point Elementary School violinist Sophia Bates has won the Suffolk County Music Educators Association’s Laurence Paul Gray Scholarship to attend the Usdan Center for the Creative and Performing Arts this summer. She was presented the award during the opening ceremony of the Division I Central SCMEA All-County Concert, held at East Islip

High School on March 10th, where she not only participated in the festival but also earned principal chair of her section.

Bates, a fifth-grader at Timber Point, was chosen over numerous applicants.

“The SCMEA committee was quite impressed with her musical background, experience and talent,” said Jaime DeMaria, Timber Point’s orchestra director.

The Usdan Center, a not-for-profit summer arts camp in Wheatley Heights, is now in its 45th season and enrolls 1,600 students each year, ages 6-18. Usdan features more than 40 different programs of study, including orchestra.”

Journey, Cross & Crucifixion CM Performing Arts Center in Oakdale presents the opportunity to reflect upon the Passion of our Lord Jesus.

On Good Friday, April 6th, at 12 p.m., 3 p.m. and 8 p.m., Creative Ministries will present The Journey, Cross and Crucifixion, which is a live dramatic reenactment of the Stations of the Cross. Would you like to join us as we come to experience more deeply

how our Lord suffered and died for us, and how much He truly loves us?

The Journey, Cross and Crucifixion is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year.

This interdenominational volunteer group has been doing this re-enactment of the Stations of the Cross for a quarter of a century. This presentation eventually gave birth to what is now known as CM Performing

Arts Center, a not for profit organization that has been entertaining and educating thousands of theater goers and performers for years.

Tickets: General Admission, Free Will Offerings Accepted For more information or to order tickets please contact the Box Office at 631.218.2810 or visit our website at www.cmpac. com.

Working together throughout the year as buddy classes, the students sang songs, performed choreography and immersed themselves into their characters.

The play tells the story of three sister nanny goats and their determination to cross the bridge in order to find food. Throughout

their journey, the goats are met by their friends – rabbits, butterflies, frogs and foxes – who warn them of the dangerous trolls who control the bridge.

Eventually, the three sisters cross the bridge and stand up for themselves against the bully trolls.

Over three days, theater students at Islip High School performed four performances of the classic tale Beauty and the Beast.

A tale as old as time, the musical tells the classic story of Belle (portrayed by Leighann Martone) and the Beast (Michael Massaro) as they overcome the odds to fall in love and break the witch’s curse. Leighann and Michael were supported by their fellow actors John Halpin (Gaston), Rosie Turner (Mrs. Potts), Larry

Saperstein (Lumiere), Brianna DiPaola (Chip), Nick Bates (Cogs), Ethan Fields (Maurice), Nick Fanizzi (Lefou), Kaytie Barry (Babbette), Kayla Siuda (the wardrobe), and silly girls Jamie Bider, Elienne Marteluna and Kayleigh Rall.

In addition to acting on stage, the students took to performing behind the scenes as they built scenery, helped choreograph the musical numbers, designed the costumes, and acted as

hair and makeup artists.

The musical was executive produced by Director of Fine Arts Vincent Green, directed

by Allison Jeanes, and included support from producer/vocal director/ orchestra conductor Dr. Rich Harris Jr., choreographer Elizabeth Heaton, scenic artist Melissa Trocchio-Cohen and tech adviser Brian Patanjo.

Tale As Old As Time

Town officials today proudly announced an influx of $300,000 in from the Islip Community Development Agency (CDA) dedicated to the capital improvement of Roberto Clemente Park in Brentwood. Much of the money is slated to be used to make extensive repairs on aging water filtration devices and other aquatic equipment on the pool at Roberto Clemente Park.

“Securing these dollars is a critical first step towards rehabilitating this important community resource,” said Councilman John Cochrane, a member of the Islip CDA Board. “While we are still searching for funds to cover the pools operating costs, being able to make the necessary repairs that secure the health and safety of pool

patrons will help ensure the long-term operation of Roberto Clemente Pool.

We still have a long way to go, but this is great news.”

Roberto Clemente Pool, originally Timberline Pool, opened in 1981 and has endured only basic repairs and maintenance since its opening. In the summer of 2012, Town officials noted that the pool was in urgent need of major repairs to its pump and filtration system, which were scheduled to take place over the winter and spring.

Unfortunately funding, time and labor needed to make such repairs had to be reallocated after Islip Town is faced with nearly $28 million in repairs and mitigations costs to its parks system.

“My thanks go to John Cochrane who worked who worked hard to secure this

funding,” said Supervisor Croci.

“Temporarily closing any Town facility is a painful but necessary financial decision, as our Parks Department is overwhelmed by the scale of repairs that need to be made in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. While Roberto Clemente Park will remain open this season, the Town Board is each actively working hard at additional solutions to get Clemente pool up and running.”

The CDA today published in local newspapers and on their website the amendment to the 2012 CDA Action Plan. After a 30 day comment period, the CDA will work with the Town Parks department to prepare a project plan for the park and pool.

Park Improvements

Town officials today proudly announced an influx of $300,000 in from the Islip Community Development Agency (CDA) dedicated to the capital improvement of Roberto Clemente Park in Brentwood. Much of the money is slated to be used to make extensive repairs on aging water filtration devices and other aquatic equipment on the pool at Roberto Clemente Park.

“Securing these dollars is a critical first step towards rehabilitating this important community resource,” said Councilman John Cochrane, a member of the Islip CDA Board. “While we are still searching for funds to cover the pools operating costs, being able to make the necessary repairs that secure the health and safety of pool

patrons will help ensure the long-term operation of Roberto Clemente Pool.

We still have a long way to go, but this is great news.”

Roberto Clemente Pool, originally Timberline Pool, opened in 1981 and has endured only basic repairs and maintenance since its opening. In the summer of 2012, Town officials noted that the pool was in urgent need of major repairs to its pump and filtration system, which were scheduled to take place over the winter and spring.

Unfortunately funding, time and labor needed to make such repairs had to be reallocated after Islip Town is faced with nearly $28 million in repairs and mitigations costs to its parks system.

“My thanks go to John Cochrane who worked who worked hard to secure this

funding,” said Supervisor Croci.

“Temporarily closing any Town facility is a painful but necessary financial decision, as our Parks Department is overwhelmed by the scale of repairs that need to be made in the wake of Hurricane Sandy. While Roberto Clemente Park will remain open this season, the Town Board is each actively working hard at additional solutions to get Clemente pool up and running.”

The CDA today published in local newspapers and on their website the amendment to the 2012 CDA Action Plan. After a 30 day comment period, the CDA will work with the Town Parks department to prepare a project plan for the park and pool.

Tale As Old As Time

Over three days, theater students at Islip High School performed four performances of the classic tale Beauty and the Beast.

A tale as old as time, the musical tells the classic story of Belle (portrayed by Leighann Martone) and the Beast (Michael Massaro) as they overcome the odds to fall in love and break the witch’s curse. Leighann and Michael were supported by their fellow actors John Halpin (Gaston), Rosie Turner (Mrs. Potts), Larry

Saperstein (Lumiere), Brianna DiPaola (Chip), Nick Bates (Cogs), Ethan Fields (Maurice), Nick Fanizzi (Lefou), Kaytie Barry (Babbette), Kayla Siuda (the wardrobe), and silly girls Jamie Bider, Elienne Marteluna and Kayleigh Rall.

In addition to acting on stage, the students took to performing behind the scenes as they built scenery, helped choreograph the musical numbers, designed the costumes, and acted as

hair and makeup artists.

The musical was executive produced by Director of Fine Arts Vincent Green, directed

by Allison Jeanes, and included support from producer/vocal director/ orchestra conductor Dr. Rich Harris Jr., choreographer Elizabeth Heaton, scenic artist Melissa Trocchio-Cohen and tech adviser Brian Patanjo.
