Westchester to celebrate World Pride with flag raising ceremony For the first time in Westchester County’s history, a LGBTQ Pride Flag will fly next to the front steps of the Michaelian Office Building in White Plains throughout WorldPride Month.

Furthering his message of inclusion and openness, Westchester County Executive George Latimer chose to host the flag raising ceremony to ensure that all who identify as LGBTQ feel welcome in Westchester. The LGBTQ Pride Flag Raising is being hosted by Westchester County, the LOFT and the LGBTQ

Advisory Board.

As part of the WorldPride celebrations, the county will also be offering a special promotion at Playland Park, “Pride Day at Playland.”

All guests who visit the park on Sunday, June 23 will be able to purchase unlimited ride bands for a discounted rate of $20, and a Spinning Wheel Raffle will be drawn every half-hour from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. with the chance to win Playland prizes.

“The Pride Flag Raising is just one way that we can show ac-

ceptance and inclusion towards the LGBTQ community here in Westchester,” Latimer said. “I want to ensure that everyone— regardless of their sexual orientation—feels welcome when they are in our County. I am proud to partner with the LOFT to celebrate this momentous occasion, and kick off a month-long celebration of WorldPride.”

Judy Troilo, Executive Director of the LOFT, Westchester’s LGBTQ+ Community Center said: “We are grateful to County Executive George Latimer and

our local government for helping to lift up Westchester’s LGBTQ Community on the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall Uprising.”

Chair of the Westchester County LGBTQ Advisory Board Christopher Oldi said: “The LGBTQ Advisory Board is thrilled to host the first ever Westchester County Pride Flag raising – especially during this historic year where WorldPride will be recognized for the first time in New York City, as well PRIDE continued on page 9

After substantial public comment where the business community, environmentalists and the general public contributed comments, the Westchester County Department of Planning has issued a request for proposals, RFP, to supplement to the Westchester County Airport master plan and associated environmental impact study. The RFP incorporates public recommendations and focuses on economic impacts, environmental concerns and overall safety at the airport.

“When we submitted the master plan last summer to the FAA we did so knowing the plan needed to have a supplement,” Westchester County Executive George Latimer said. “I’m pleased today that we heard from the public on a variety of issues and are now moving forward with a RFP to create a supplement. The airport is an important part of our County, and while I have no intention of expanding it, we must have a plan to move forward to help business and protect the environment.”

Latimer made a commitment to look at the airport operations and their impacts and develop a new vision for the airport based on greater participation of the public. The supplement to the master plan with additional analysis of the airport, particularly with respect to the physical conditions of the airport property, buildings and infrastructure, additional analysis of noise and other impacts of the airport, and the local and regional economic impact of the airport. The supplement will also explore additional alternatives for improved safety and performance and reduced environmental impacts. However, there will be no expansion of airport operations.

“This administration has worked with and will continue to work closely with all of the environmental advocates around the entire gamut of concerns and

issues—including noise, water, and air,” said Peter McCart, the county director of Energy Conservation and Sustainability. “We have tight relationships with every group, so they’re involved with the plans and operations of our internal specialists and scientists, as well as those hired as consultants.”

The county is seeking the services of a professional consulting firm or team of firms with extensive experience in airport planning, economics and New York State and federal environmental regulations to assist in developing an update of management and development policies related to Westchester County Airport and performing the appropriate environmental review.

Tasks include: • Evaluating the airport as a unique resource and economic generator for the county and region.

• Developing and evaluating alternatives to improve operational safety and efficiency of the airport, including facility modifications and modernizations as necessary.

• Evaluating and developing alternatives to continue to improve environmental performance at the airport considering the forecast conducted in Task 1 (a).

• Working with a second consultant, to be identified by a separate Request for Proposals, to implement a public engagement program, developed by that consultant, throughout and beyond the planning process. The public engagement program will utilize a wide variety of methods to engage the public, including online tools as well as community charrettes and workshops. The county anticipates that, subject to the recommendation of the other consultant, the successful consultant from this RFP will work closely with the county AIRPORT continued on page 10

County recognizes World Elder Abuse Awareness Day In an effort to reduce the number of instances of elder abuse in Westchester County, the Department of Senior Programs and Services is hosting an educational program on how to avoid scams and fraud that target older adults. The event, which is being held in recognition of the 13th annual World Elder Abuse Awareness Day, will be held at the Port Chester Senior Center on Friday, June 7 from 11 a.m. to noon. The Port Chester Community Senior Center is located at 222 Grace Church St. This program is free to the public and no registration is necessary.

“Our elderly community is one of our most vulnerable populations, and we need to be doing everything we can to ensure our seniors are safe,” Westchester County Executive George Latimer said. “Elder abuse can effect anyone and comes in many forms, including physical, emotional or financial abuse, and

often times seniors are unable to defend themselves or get the help they need. I encourage everyone to take advantage of this informative workshop, and learn more about the ways the County can help you if you fall victim to abuse.”

Gary Brown, the New York Attorney General’s statewide elder abuse coordinator, and Jamie E. Fair, an assistant district attorney with the Westchester District Attorney’s Special Prosecution Division, will be among the presenters for this important program.

Elder abuse refers to the intentional or neglectful acts by a caregiver, “trusted” individual or stranger that lead to, or may lead to the harm of a vulnerable older person. The abuse can be physical, emotional or financial, and the problem crosses social and economic lines.

World Elder Abuse Awareness Day is sponsored by the Interna-

tional Network for the Prevention of Elder Abuse. The program in Port Chester is sponsored by the Westchester County Elder Abuse Coalition of the county’s Department of Senior Programs and Services, DSPS. The U.S. Justice Department says that a minimum of one in nine or 11 percent of Americans over age 60 have experienced some form of elder abuse. In Westchester County, it is estimated that 15 percent of the population over 60 are victims. Protective Services for Adults—part of the county’s Department of Social Services—said that last year there were almost 200 calls received each month reporting suspected cases of elder abuse in the county. The actual number of cases could be even higher, however, because most cases are not reported.

For more information, please contact DSPS at 813-6300.

By Andy Landorf & John Colquhoun

The New 60 is a weekly look about what it’s like to be in your 60’s in today’s world: adult children living at home, downsizing (jobs and houses), finding old friends on Facebook and deciphering text-speak. It’s a Brave New World of second homes, second careers and second marriages…and finding out after a lifetime of milkshakes and ice cream that you’re suddenly lactose-intolerant.

The New 60 is created by two local 60-plus Westchester residents, John Colquhoun of Bronxville and Andy Landorf, who hails from Tarrytown. The duo are long-time advertising creatives and this, as the saying goes, is their Act II. Even though it features folks in their 60’s, if you know someone who is 60, have a parent who’s 60 or just generally enjoy watching funny things happen to other people, you’ll find something to relate to here—you may even find yourself saying, “Hey, that happened to me!”

‘Dragon,’ ‘Kiddie’ coasters featured by the LA Times

The vintage “Dragon” and “Kiddy” roller coasters at Playland Park in Rye were featured by the Los Angeles Times along with 19 other vintage coasters from around the world.

According to list curator Brady MacDonald, most of the coasters on the list “were built in the 1920s during the ‘Golden Age of Roller Coasters’ or earlier.” The information for this feature was gathered from the “Roller Coaster Database” and “American Coaster Enthusiasts.”

“Playland is formally recognized as a National Historic Landmark—and more informally is cemented in the hearts and minds of all who have walked around the Westchester treasure as a child or as an adult. We are proud to see this gem recognized all the way across the Country,” Westchester County Executive George Latimer said.

Playland has been Westchester County and the New York Metropolitan areas’ great family amusement park and entertainment center since 1928.

Playland has the distinction of being America’s first totally planned amusement park and prototype for today’s theme parks. Art Deco structures and symmetrical colonnades are the hallmark of Playland’s singular architectural flow. Playland was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1987 and is owned by Westchester County and operated by the Department of Parks, Recreation and Conservation. The park offers 50 major and Kiddyland rides and attracts hundreds of thousands of visitors each season.

“Our parks staff dedicate a lot of labor—and even more love—to maintain these vintage, historic rides for all to enjoy. Playland is a special place and deserves all of the recognition it receives,” said Kathleen O’Connor, county Parks and Recreation commissioner.

Playland operates seven original classic rides—the Dragon Caster, Derby Racer, Grand Carousel (currently under restoration, scheduled to

reopen in 2020), Whip, Ye Old Mill, Kiddy Coaster and Kiddy Carousel, all of which are National Historic Landmarks.

Playland also features lake boating, mini golf, games of skill, arcade games, a variety of food stands, fireworks on Fridays (July and August), laser shows and concerts on the Music Tower Stage. The Pier Restaurant and Tiki Bar, the Westchester Children’s Museum, Playland Ice Casino, beach and pool and art gallery space are located on the Boardwalk.

The Boardwalk is part of Playland’s Seaside Walk—the largest stretch of public parkland on Long Island Sound in Westchester. Playland hosts parties for groups of 100 to 10,000 with catered events tailored to the needs of clients. Playland generates $28 million a year for the region through off-site spending, in-park spending and job creation. (Submitted)

In addition, Rye Neck High School received a nomination in

the Production Number category for the cast’s performance of the “Born to Hand Jive” dance number. Rounding out the nominations were a full-cast Outstanding Chorus nomination and an Outstanding Stage Crew nomination for the hard-working students serving in backstage duties.

“I always tell my students that the quality of our production

is something we already know, without needing outside validation,” theater director Scott Harris said. “If we had been nominated for zero awards, I would feel just as proud of our cast and crew.

That said, it’s nice to know our efforts were appreciated by those three judges who came to see our production.”

The Metro Awards shine a

spotlight on exceptional musical theater productions, talented actors and actresses, and creative teams from Bergen, Putnam, Rockland and Westchester counties, according to the awards website.

The annual awards ceremony will be held on June 10 at the Performing Arts Center at Purchase College. (Submitted)

Defined by a moment LIVE MIKE Mike Smith

F. Scott Fitzgerald once famously opined that “there are no second acts in American life,” an adage that seems almost quaint in today’s landscape of celebrity culture. It seems as though almost any public figure—given enough time—can rehabilitate his or her image, at least as it pertains to general social acceptance.

But if there is one sphere in which Fitzgerald’s words still ring true, it’s in the world of sports.

On May 27, former Major League all-star Bill Buckner passed away at the age of 69.

Over the course of his 22-year career, Buckner was an exceptional ballplayer; he boasted a lifetime batting average of .289, collected more than 2,700 hits, and— perhaps most shockingly given today’s landscape—never struck out three times in a single game.

But for the better part of the last

30 years, most sports fans didn’t look at the Vallejo, California native as a consummate professional who put together an impressive—if not quite Hall-of-Fameworthy—career.

Instead, he was defined by the events of Game 6 of the 1986 World Series.

If you have even a passing knowledge of the sport of baseball, you know what happened: the Boston Red Sox were one out away from clinching their first World Series title since 1918 when everything that could have gone wrong did. Suddenly, Boston’s pitchers couldn’t get anyone out, and the New York Mets tied the game up on a wild pitch by Bob Stanley. With Ray Knight on second base, Mets’ centerfielder Mookie Wilson tapped a slow roller to Buckner at first base that went through his legs, allowing Knight to dash home with the winning run.

Boston would go on to lose Game 7, and the “Curse of the Bambino” would live on for another 28 years.

Buckner, unfairly, became the scapegoat despite there being plenty of blame to go around.

The error has become part of baseball lore, easily the single-most famous play in the sport’s history.

It was a gaffe that would essentially define his entire career.

Buckner would be released by the Red Sox the following season, and was persona-non-grata in the city until Boston had won two World Series titles nearly three decades later.

Sports are a unique beast. Too often can individuals be identified with either their best—or worst—moments. As good of a basketball player as he was, Chris Webber will always be remembered for his ill-advised timeout call in the 1993 NCAA Championship Game. Despite being a hall-of-fame boxer, Roberto Duran’s “No mas” fight, in which he quit in his corner against Sugar Ray Leonard, may be his most memorable bout. We seem to cherry-pick these moments to illuminate entire careers,

and that is simply no way to look at an athlete’s contribution to his sport.

I just hope that Buckner’s

death this week has led sports fans to read up on what a fantastic player he really was. He deserved a lot better in life, and it’s

the least that we can do.

Garnets claim Class C crown BOYS LACROSSE

FINALS

RYE 8 BYRAM HILLS 2 LAKELAND HS

5/24/19

Game Notes: • Tommy DeCaro and Liam Hurley had 2 goals for Rye • The Garnets did not allow a goal after the 1st quarter • This is Rye’s first Section I title since 2008

By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor After the way their season ended last year, the Rye Garnets weren’t about to let another chance slip through their fingers.

On May 24, Rye captured its first Section I title since 2008, topping Byram Hills 8-2 at Lakeland High School thanks to a dominant defensive performance and an ability to fight through the

Bobcats’ zone.

Unlike last year, when Rye let a three-goal lead slip through its fingers in a 9-8 loss to Pelham, there would be no let-up on Friday.

“Especially after last year, and what happened against Pelham, this is a great feeling,” midfielder Tommy DeCaro said. “Losing like that, especially playing for our seniors, it makes this even

more special.”

Although Byram Hills got out to a fast start, leading 2-1 with 1:43 left in the first quarter, Rye’s offensive pressure would eventually turn the tide. DeCaro and Liam Hurley led the Garnets with two goals apiece, while Danny Fitzgibbons and Caden Whalen each tallied a goal and an assist.

According to DeCaro, the Garnets were well-prepared for the Bobcats’ zone and were able to use ball-movement and patience to eventually wear down their opponents.

“It was just about moving the ball fast and getting into lanes,” he said. “We have a lot of outside shooters on our team and if we could hit them in the right spots, we were confident in their shots.”

Rye held a two-goal lead heading into halftime and were able to add two more goals early in the third quarter, something DeCaro believed was the turning point in the game—even if Rye wouldn’t allow themselves to take the foot off the gas until the final whistle.

“We live and die on energy,” he said. “We just beat them with our energy.”

Rye’s defense, led by Ellis Tucci, Brendan Lavelle and goalie Emmet Carrol, was predictably solid, allowing just five shots on goal on the afternoon. The Gar-

nets have surrendered more than five goals in a game just once since April 1.

“There’s nothing better than having Emmet back there,” DeCaro said. “I’ve been playing with him since the third or fourth grade, and it’s definitely going to be a rude awakening in a few

years not having him back there.”

With the win, Rye will move onto the regional semifinal round on Wednesday, May 29, after press time, where they will play Section II champion La Salle Institute.
