onnetquot Central School District’s Edward J. Bosti Elementary School first graders, with the help of their parents, recently raised more than $60 by collecting and recycling water bottles and soda cans.

Pictured are some of the students with their donation collections.

Creative Expressions Masks The Gallery

Featuring Poetry And Photos Submitted

By Our Readers!

By: Sarah Bosworth, West Babylon

Hey there little girl, Why are you crying On a “sunny” day?

Where’s the mask that Should be covering your face?

Hey there little girl, Come sit with me, And I will explain why You must keep the darkness inside.

Allow your heart to be Swallowed whole By the troubles you Feel that are your own.

Your mask Of “happiness” Will fool Everyone around you, And give back what You accidently took From them.

The people dance and sing With their “glee,” And masks in place, While you walk with the people, Revealing what must be Hidden from judging eyes.

Look around you, And see the smiling faces All around you and me.

They too, Have despise and troubles, Just like you, But they still manage to Keep their masks on.

“Let’s Go Fly A Kite” Photo by: Melissa Armenia, North Babylon

Hey there little girl, Your sadness is strong But it won’t last forever.

The fear and pain Will become numb someday.

Allowing you to put a Plaster smile on your face.

Then everything will Be almost normal again.

And that is why, Little girl, You must wear your mask Every minute of every day.

They begin to think That you are weak And start to feel pity For you.

They begin to look at you as prey.

Local artist Todd Arnett has been using his creativity on the grounds of Camp-Pa-Qua-Tuck by creating a wooden sculpture near Kaler’s Pond.

The unnamed sculpture was carved out of an elevenfoot tall, 800-pound black cherry tree and made into a Phoenix. It was placed on a 5,000-pound illuminated base on November 10 at the camp. The sculpture was inspired by the ideas of Gail Saetta and Matt Russell, Bradstock Music Festival volunteers who have been organizing the festival at the camp annually and have been installing lights throughout the camp for the past two years.

When it looked like Bradstock would no longer continue because another music venue was not able to present the festival any longer, Camp Pa-QuaTuck offered to hold it on their grounds three years ago. During that time, Ms. Saetta and Mr. Russell became acquainted with the camp’s staff and volunteers and learned about its mission. They then began donating lights and installing them on the camp’s grounds.

“One spring day when we were installing lights, Matt and I thought that adding something new to the

camp would be a good idea in order to stimulate more creativity,” Ms. Saetta stated. “We thought about different types of objects and eventually, decided on a large sculpture.”

Ms. Saetta and Mr. Russell proposed the idea to Bridget Costello, the camp’s director. Ms. Costello concurred that an innovative, artistic sculpture would enhance the camp. They approached Mr. Arnett in June with ideas to incorporate a sculpture into the camp after hearing about his immaculate wood carving abilities from a close friend.

Mr. Arnett, Ms. Saetta and Mr. Russell began exchanging ideas about what type of sculpture to create. After many conversations, the idea of a phoenix emerged.

“The Phoenix sculpture symbolizes the rebirth of the music festival at Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck and symbolizes the strength of the children that attend the camp,” says Ms. Saetta.

Although the sculpture is not yet completed, it is coming together as feathers beneath a globe with a forceful vortex above it. Essentially, it’s pushing a Phoenix to fly higher. For the finishing touches, musical notes will be added around the

globe.

Mr. Arnett began working on the one-ofa-kind sculpture in July, about a month after his meeting with Ms. Saetta and Mr. Russell. The sculpture is expected to be fully completed soon, although Mr. Arnett is not sure of an exact date yet because of weather conditions.

Mr. Arnett has been wood carving for over 30 years and has had a sculpture business on Long Island for ten years.

“This is definitely one of my largest sculptures I’ve done and I’m ecstatic to make one for the camp,” says Mr. Arnett. “I love contributing to a great organization that helps children and young adults with special needs.”

“We hope to enhance creativity at the camp with this unique sculpture,” says Ms. Costello. “We want the children in our programs to be inspired by the sculpture and know to always reach for the stars, just like the flying Phoenix.”

Yesterday, the Long Island region was awarded $83 million in Regional Economic Development Awards. New York State’s Regional Councils were created by Governor Cuomo in 2011 in an effort to jumpstart the economy and create jobs.

The initiative has redesigned the state’s approach to economic development from a top-down model to a communitybased, performancedriven approach where community, business and academic leaders develop strategic plans tailored to their region’s unique strengths and resources in order to spur economic development.

“I would like to thank the members of the Long Island’s Regional Economic Development Council for their steadfast commitment to supporting projects that will grow and strengthen Long Island’s Economy,” said County Executive Bellone.

Long Island was designated a Top Performer.

Highlights of the 90 Suffolk County projects funded include: · $2,000,000 to Stony Brook University to build a new Innovation and Discovery Facility designed to enhance the business recruitment power of START-UP NY and stimulate a public-private partnership for building construction. · $2,000,000 to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory (CSHL) to renovate a facility and establish a Therapeutics Discovery Center, which will greatly accelerate translational research efforts at CSHL aimed at developing new therapeutics and diagnostics for cancer and neurological disorders. · $2,000,000 to support high performance computing investments at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) as well as Hofstra University. Hofstra will create a Robotics Laboratory in the School of Engineering to support

Savor The Season By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

(Note: All remnants of Santa Claus should be removed by July. No exceptions.)

Of course, all of this is irrelevant to those who start their Christmas shopping in January and are finished decorating by Halloween.

Seriously folks – enjoy one season, and one holiday, at a time. What’s the big rush?

This time of year is not one long list to be accomplished in as little time as humanly possible; it is made up of moments to be cherished, memories to reflect upon and add to with each passing year.

Take a deep breath, take lots of pictures – and enjoy.

A Time For Rest & Relaxation

When I was in kindergarten, I wanted to be a policeman. When I was in fourth grade, I dreamed of becoming a pro football player. In middle school, I wanted to be a businessman.

Now, as I am supposed to be finalizing the college application process, I have realized that I have no idea what I want to be. This is undoubtably the most important decision I have had to make in my life. Unsurprisingly, it is also the most stressful.

Combined with the already demanding Advanced Placement course load, I am also

juggling clubs, sports and now dozens of college applications.

There are so many tasks on the checklist that I call my daily routine that it is hard to cram them all into a twentyfour hour time period.

Being a student is a fulltime job. Sure, I don’t have to worry about bills, and I don’t have many major responsibilities; but sometimes the stress is too much. As much as I enjoy going to school and being as involved as I am, there comes a time when I just need a break.

Thankfully, in just a few days it will be Christmas Vacation.

Over two weeks off with no responsibilities. By then, I will be all done applying to college.

The ball will be in their court. At that point, there will be nothing I can do but wait and hope my dream school makes the right decision. Once Christmas Vacation rolls around, I won’t have to worry about anything.

I will finally be able to focus on having a great senior year.

There is plenty of time to discover what career is right for me. For now, I am content just being a dedicated student, and more importantly, a happy kid.

TREE LIGHTING HELD - Islandia residents turned out for the 8th Annual Christmas Tree Lighting ceremony on December 7th at Village Hall. “Joe the Singing Bus Driver” performed under the big tent as he played guitar and sang holiday songs.

Residents also enjoyed hot cocoa, cookies and cupcakes while listening to the music.

Two children joined Mayor Allan M. Dorman in the lighting of the tree. After the tree was lit, Santa Claus arrived with the Central Islip and Hauppauge Fire Departments and went inside the tent to distribute toys to the good boys and girls, with help from Santa’s elves. Santa also posed for pictures with the children, who also received candy canes, courtesy of Mrs. Claus.

EDP Dental Plan

For more than 10 years, EDP Dental Plan of Ronkonkoma has provided Long Islanders with an affordable dental care plan.

EDP developed a cost savings program that is available to anyone. EDP’s lowcost plan saves its members money on all dental procedures, from cleanings and exams to implants and braces. The discounts are given to the patient up front at the time of treatment to make it simple for the member to use.

Jill from EDP Dental Plan says, “We have been able to address our members’ biggest concerns with the dentist - the cost. Many of our members have avoided the dentist because they are concerned with how much it will cost, and therefore don’t get the dental care they desperately need. EDP is bridging the gap between provider and patient by providing this cost-effective program that gives members

instant relief from the financial burden of dental care. EDP provides new patients for the dentist and instant savings for our members. People ask us all the time, ‘Why do dentists take EDP?’ It’s simple, to get new patients and encourage people to take better care of their teeth - you only get one set.”

EDP Dental Plan is available to everyone, regardless of age, and has a low annual rate of $99 for a single person and $199 for family membership. With the EDP Dental Plan, you have unlimited access to all dental care and remarkable savings.

If you are in need of dental care and are putting it off due to financial concerns, then call EDP today and find out how you can save money on your dental care.

EDP Dental Plan will get you the care you need at a price you can afford. Call 877.327.8376 or enroll online at www. edpdental.com.

Falls account for more than one million injuries in the U.S. annually. There are four types of walking accidents with the most common being the slip and fall. That’s the type of fall that happens when you fall due a surface not cleared of snow or ice.

“Every winter the hazards of driving in snow and icy conditions are noted, but rarely is walking on snow and ice addressed,” said Martin B. Tirado, CAE, Executive Director of the Snow & Ice Management Association.

“Slipping and falling while walking accounts for a large number of winter-related injuries and can have an impact on the quality of life for the injured person.”

SIMA, the national nonprofit organization representing the snow removal industry, has some tips on safe winter walking.

TIP #1: Wear proper footwear. Proper footwear should place the entire foot on the surface of the

ground and have visible treads. Avoid a smooth sole and opt for a heavy treaded shoe with a flat bottom.

TIP #2: Accessorize to see and be seen. Wear sunglasses so that you can see in the reflective light of the snow. Also, wear a bright coat or scarf so that drivers can easily see you.

TIP #3: Plan ahead.

While walking on snow or ice on sidewalks or in parking lots, walk consciously. Instead of looking down, look up and see where your feet will move next to anticipate ice or an uneven surface.

Occasionally scan from left to right to ensure you are not in the way of vehicles or other hazards.

TIP #4: Make sure you can hear. While seeing the environment is important, you also want to be sure you can hear approaching traffic and other noises. Avoid listening to music or engaging in conversation that may prevent you

careful since shifting your weight may cause an imbalance and result in a fall.

TIP #9: Avoid taking shortcuts. Shortcuts are a good idea if you are in a hurry, but may be a bad idea if there is snow and ice on the ground.

A shortcut path may be treacherous because it is likely to be located where snow and ice removal is not possible.

TIP #10: Look up. Be

careful about what you walk under. Injuries also can result from falling snow/ice as it blows, melts, or breaks away from awnings, buildings, etc.

Following these tips will help ensure that you survive the snow and ice season safely. For more snow and ice removal tips, visit SIMA.

Ms. Susan White, Principal of Connetquot’s John Pearl Elementary School in Bohemia welcomed members of the Bohemia Volunteer Fire Department (BFD) on October 17th.

The local volunteers spoke to John Pearl students about fire safety at home, as well as school.

The day’s program began with an informative, animated video about fire safety. Students were then taken to the BFD smoke

trailer. At the ‘smokehouse’ students would experience what it would be like to be escape from a ‘smokey’ room at home. The trailer smoke is safe, and artificial, and students learn to get down on the floor, below the ‘smoke’ to ‘escape’.

BFD Commisioner Frank Nuzzo, 2nd Assistant Chief Sterling Haynes and their fellow firefighters demonstrated the use of fire extinguishers, had the students perform ‘stop, drop and roll’,

Helping The Community

After returning from the SkillsUSA Fall Leadership Conference that was a held upstate in Monroe County, Eastern Suffolk BOCES (ESBOCES) students at Islip Career Center (ICC) decided that helping out the local community was the first thing on their agenda.

Doing things for others is the basis of many occupations, so SkillsUSA members strive to be active in their schools and communities. Service is

one aspect of the SkillsUSA Pledge along with honor, respect, upholding ideals, diligence, self-control, and commitment.

Business Education Teacher Jean Murray said, “There are many families at ICC who may need assistance this holiday as Long Island is recovering from Superstorm Sandy and the economy.”

The SkillsUSA students asked for non-perishable donations.

They had enough for six baskets

that were raffled off “lottery fashion” to their peers in the building. The remaining food is being donated to local pantries in the Islip area to help other Long Island families.

SkillsUSA is a certifying organization of the President’s Volunteer Service Award. Advisors, student members, and registered alumni can earn recognition for community service activities and time spent as a volunteer.

have participated in CAPS programs.

Mrs. Toscano, and Idle Hour Elementary School students, thanked Mr. Sturchio for his visit, and the important lessons, and strategies he shared with them. This presentation is part of the Connetquot School District’s ‘United We Stand for a Drug and Bullying Free’ Community program.

Bosti Elementary School students recently participated in a letter writing project coordinated by 5th grade teacher Joanna McManaman.

20 SUFFOLK ZONE 5 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 18, 2013 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Animal Shelter Donation

Here’s dedication and persistence for you. In just 15 days, students from the Eastern Suffolk BOCES (ESBOCES) Animal Science Program at Brookhaven Technical Center (BTC) collected towels, food, bones, quilts, and $600. Yes, in addition to bins of non-perishable items, they raised $600 and donated it to the Kent Animal Shelter in Calverton.

The Kent Animal Shelter is a private, notfor-profit humane society that provides a haven for homeless, abused, and abandoned animals until new homes can be found.

The shelter never destroys

an animal unless incurably ill.

Linda Mac Donald, office manager at Kent, accepted the $600 and other sundries saying that the donation would be “life changing” for the animals.

“One hundred percent will go directly to the care and feeding of these homeless animals,” she said.

The students said they heard a public service announcement (PSA) on the radio that Kent needed donations. They asked their teacher Lisa Mongiello if they could hold a fundraiser before Thanksgiving. They were determined and they raised the $600 by selling candy

grams and muffins.

Ms. Mongiello said, “I am using the Mutt-igrees curriculum in my classroom. The goal is to develop and implement initiatives that support calm, confident, and caring kids. It’s an approach to teaching students social, emotional, and critical skills that will help them interacting with people and animals.”

Students enrolled in the ESBOCES Animal Science Program are preparing themselves for careers related to working with animals. The course affords advanced college credit from Suffolk County Community College.

RECYCLING TO HELP THOSE IN NEED - Connetquot Central School District’s Edward J. Bosti Elementary School first graders, with the help of their parents, recently raised more than $60 by collecting and recycling water bottles and soda cans.

The students bought food items and a gift certificate for a turkey, which they stuffed in a decorated box of ‘goodies’ to donate to local families in need. The interactive exercise was coordinated by the first grade teacher, Ms. Prin and Youth and Family Services (YFS) coordinator Mrs. Lynn Slovin.

Library Groundbreaking

On Saturday, the Longwood Public Library’s groundbreaking ceremony was held to celebrate the beginning of the library’s renovations.

The 25 year-old building will be adding about 15,000

square feet, upgrading the infrastructure, roofing and heating and cooling system. They will also add energy efficient solar panels and upgraded insulation to help the building conserve energy

and save money.

The plan is moving forward after years of community forums and visioning charrettes to seek input from the Longwood Community.

SIGNED & SEALED - Eleven student-athletes from Connetquot Central School District’s Connetquot High School recently signed college commitment letters for the upcoming 2014-2015 school year. The group of student-athletes committed to athletic programs at Franklin Pierce College, Stony Brook University, Tampa University, Dominican College, Fairmont State University, Columbia University, Dowling College, St. John’s University and Cortland University. The graduating seniors who lettered in baseball, lacrosse, cross country and volleyball were joined by their parents and coaches at the ‘Commitment Day’ ceremony.

A WINTER’S TALE - Assemblyman Edward Hennessey toured the Developmental Disabilities Institute located in Medford, where he read The Cold Lady That Swallowed The Snow to a class of attentive preschoolers. The youngsters are part of the Young Autism Program at DDI, which has methodologies designed to help the children gain the necessary skills to be successful at home, in school and in the community. The staff is highly trained to meet the individual needs of children living with autism.

Spreading Holiday Cheer

presents in hand, the players shot some hoops with these little patients, took photos and had some fun with the kids in the playroom. The team’s efforts brought exactly what they hoped for, smiling young faces and holiday joy.

During the team’s visit, coach Steve Pikiell presented L. Reuvan Pasternak, MD, Chief Executive Officer, Stony Brook University Hospital and Vice President for Health Systems, Stony Brook Medicine, with a

Stony Brook University Athletics ‘family-4-pack’ of tickets to each SBU Men’s Basketball home game to kids and their families who are currently admitted or who have been discharged from the Children’s Hospital.

Coach Pikiell is no stranger to generous donations; he and his family donated $25,000 in May of 2012 to Stony Brook Children’s that was then matched by an anonymous donor, raising the value to $50,000.

For the second year in a row, the Rotary Club of the Moriches presented Breakfast with Santa, which took place December 8th inside the dining hall of Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck.

Nearly 300 people attended the event. Proceeds went to benefit the camp.

Guests were served pancakes, sausage, juice and coffee by members of the Moriches Rotary Club and the Interact Clubs from Eastport South Manor, Center Moriches and East Moriches. Following the

breakfast, everyone had the opportunity to meet Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus and get their pictures taken with them.

In addition, guests took part in a 50/50 raffle and raffles for a chance to win a variety of prizes that included children’s toys and Christmas decorations.

Camp Pa-Qua-Tuck is a resident summer camp serving children and young adults ages 6-21 with both physical and developmental special needs. Its mission is to help

21

It’s usually team spirit that the Stony Brook University Men’s Basketball team brings to the court each game, but during a special holiday visit to Stony Brook Children’s Hospital on Monday, December 9th, there was a different type of spirit and cheer roaming the halls.

The team took a break from practice to come mingle with some of the youngest Seawolves fans in the pediatric emergency department, and pediatric acute care unit. With

Visiting Santa

these children to achieve equality, dignity, and maximum independence through a safe quality program of camping, recreation and education.

Throughout the program, campers participate in many activities, such as arts and crafts, talent shows, cook-outs, swimming and boating.

PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN (Never know to fail) Oh most beautiful flower of Mt. Carmel, fruitful vine, splendor of heaven, blessed Mother of the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist me in my necessity. Oh Star of the Sea, help me and show me herein you are my mother.

Oh Mary, Mother of God, Queen of Heaven and Earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart, to succor me in this necessity.

There are none that can withstand your power. Oh show me herein you are my mother. Oh Mary, conceived without sin, pray for us who have recourse to thee. (3x) Holy Mother, I place this cause in you hands. (3x) Holy Spirit, You who solve all problems, light all roads to that I can attain my goal.

You, that I never want to be separated from you in eternal glory. Thank you for your mercy toward me and mine.

Amen. The person must say this prayer 3 consecutive days. After 3 days, the request will be granted. This prayer must be published after the favor is granted. TT

Cardiology Center Support

The Guilds of Good Samaritan Hospital Medical Center recently presented $90,000 to The Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation to support the hospital’s cardiology services. This gift brought the Guilds’ 2013 donations to a total of $250,000 for various programs, including pediatrics, cancer, intensive care services and the Emergency Department.

Made up of volunteers from surrounding communities, the Guilds have helped sustain the hospital for

more than 50 years.

Good Samaritan Hospital’s cardiovascular services include superior, comprehensive care.

Good Samaritan was one of the first community hospitals in Suffolk County to perform primary angioplasty to swiftly open blocked arteries during a heart attack and was the first in the county to offer the combination of primary elective angioplasty and a cardiac rehabilitation program.

Patients across Long Island turn to Good

Samaritan for a variety of cardiology services such as angioplasty, temporary pacemaker insertion, electrophysiology studies, stress testing, EKG testing and more. In addition, Good Samaritan has been recognized with the Get With The Guidelines® – Heart Failure Gold Quality Achievement Award from the American Heart Association for the third consecutive year.

For more information on cardiology services at Good Samaritan, call 631.376.4444.

Uniting The Community

Hospital’s Tree Lighting this year. The event included fun activities and an opportunity to remember someone special with an angel bearing the names of those being honored or memorialized displayed in the hospital lobby during the month of December.

The lighting of the Christmas Tree was a symbolic tribute to these

special “Christmas Angels.”

The festival raised more than $4,000 for The Good Samaritan Hospital Foundation and was enjoyed by more than 500 community members, Foundation and Guild board members, staff and elected officials.

The free event featured refreshments and lots of fun with a visit from Santa, courtesy of the West Islip

Fire Department, along with his elves and friends from the North Pole. In addition, attendees had their photos taken in a 15 ft. giant snow globe.

Students from St. John the Baptist High School and Harborfields High School were among the volunteers who helped make the event a success.

Dream Dare Do

Mr. Joseph Licato, Assistant Principal at Connetquot’s Ronkonkoma Middle School, welcomed the Camfel Production team to the school on October 21st. Licato and the school’s Guidance Department, brought the 6th and 7th grade students into the Alice Schaefer Auditorium to view an exciting video, and audio, presentation on three giant screens entitled Dream, Dare, Do! The program is designed to encourage students to “… clarify dreams, look clearly at obstacles and through hard work and determination, turn their dreams into a reality.”

Students learn positive methods for dealing with pressure, stress and fear, and come to understand the importance of setting short-term goals for their lives. Finally, students realize that it’s time to stop blaming others and take responsibility for their own future.

Ronkonkoma MS students were exposed to various forms of bullying, and the strategies for avoiding and overcoming those who would tear people down, to make themselves feel bigger and better.

Students were interviewed about their experiences, and many expressed their

determination to ‘Raise your hand if you’re sick of it (bullying)’!

Mr. Licato, teachers and members of the Guidance Department were very pleased with the attention students gave to the presentation. Licato was impressed by the positive comments the students made as they left the auditorium, knowing they would involve one another in healthy discussions of the presentation in their follow-up classes. This presentation is part of the Connetquot School District’s ‘United We Stand for a Drug and Bullying Free’ Community program.

WELCOME CHRISTMAS - The Medford Chamber Holiday Parade was accompanied by a light dusting of snow, which added to the festive atmosphere. Seasonal music was provided by the Executives during the tree lighting in Medford Memorial Park. The Medford Fire Department, which assisted with the parade, also provided hot cocoa and cookies at the fire house for parade-goers to warm up.

Thinking Bright

Ms. Susan White, Principal of Connetquot’s John Pearl Elementary School in Bohemia took part in several interactive skits performed by the school’s 5th grade Peer Moderators.

On October 22nd, Ms. White and YFS (Youth & Family Services) Coordinator Mrs. Donna Leopardi, performed several anti-bully skits as a kickoff to the district’s United We Stand for a

Drug and Bullying Free Community week.

The 5th graders acted out the danger of illegal drugs, and the scourge of bullying. The performances demonstrated how being ‘mean’ verbally, or physically in a threatening manner is not only inappropriate, but hurtful, especially to youngsters. The audience was encouraged to speak up when they encounter a bullying situation, not

stand by, but try to get the attention of an adult who could help.

Ms. White thanked the Peer Mediators and Mrs. Leopardi for the thoughtful skits, and the important messages they shared with their classmates. During Connetquot’s United We Stand … week, district students renew their commitment to a healthy drug-free, and bullyingfree, lifestyle.

Joining Forces

On Wednesday, December 4th Connetquot Teachers Association (CTA) President Anthony Felicio, Jr., met with 9th grade student Nicole Agrillo and teachers at OakdaleBohemia Middle School (OBMS). Ellen Perz and Rob Burger represented the OBMS teachers who coordinated a program to support Nicole Agrillo’s efforts to raise money for the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (ASPCA). A check in the amount of $1,070 will be presented to the ASPCA on behalf of Nicole Grillo, and OBMS teachers.

CTA President Anthony

Felicio, Jr., said “I would like to thank and congratulate the OBMS teachers for donating the money raised on ‘Dress Down Fridays’ to Nicole Agrillo and the ASPCA. This effort is another example of the Connetquot teachers’ involvement in the community, and our support of students and projects that are important to them. Thanks to Nicole, and all of the people who participate in the ASPCA mission to protect animals.”

Dress Down Friday was initiated several years ago by teachers at OBMS and serves as a fund-raiser for a variety of causes. Teachers

contribute to a fund on Fridays which ‘allows’ them to ‘dress down’ in more casual clothes.

Teachers then discuss to whom the funds will be donated on behalf of the OBMS educators.

The ASPCA was founded in 1866 on the belief that animals are entitled to kind and respectful treatment at the hands of humans, and must be protected under the law. It is one of the largest such organizations in the world. Thanks to Nicole Grillo and OBMS teachers, the work of the ASPCA will continue to protect America’s animals.

The Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence (LICADD) will host a full-day Anger Management Workshop on Saturday, December 21st, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the agency’s Mineola office.

The workshop provides participants with practical steps to address their triggers and learn how to manage their frustration in stressful situations.

This full-day workshop is

in addition to the weekly sessions offered from 7:30 to 9 p.m. on Mondays at the Ronkonkoma office and Tuesdays from 7:30 to 9 p.m. in the Mineola office.

Classroom exercises and instructional materials are used to help guide participants in learning a variety of skills including stress management, communication training, anger management,

empathy, and conflict resolution, as well as skills in developing better judgment and impulse control.

Participants will receive an official certificate after completing the course.

LICADD’s anger management services are approved by all courts, probation departments, and Child Protective Services.
