Sy-Con Lite is a smaller version of the original Sy-Con event, which is scheduled to take place every other year at the Syosset Public“TheLibrary.concept of Sy-Con is to bring the excitement of a pop-culture convention like you’d see at a New York Comic-Con to a smaller community using the library’s building as the convention hall,” Chautin said. “Usually we will have vendors, which is a big part of Comic-Con or pop-culture conventions. You’ll have independent artists, crafts people selling stuff. Because we’re still coming out of COVID-19, we weren’t ready to have the numbers we used to Whilehave.” there was no vendors at the event, excitement still filled the library this year. Children and adults alike were fascinated by the professional LEGO models assembled by LEGO enthusiasts in the I LUG NY group.“ILUG NY is a LEGO fan group started in 2009 by myself and we’re about 40 members strong,” Brian Wygant said. “We like to share our love of the hobby with the public. It’s good to see people’s faces and get questions from kids.”

The pop-culture convention Sy-Con Lite

This Space Train was the most popular LEGO model at Sy-Con Lite.

Attendees went full out with their costumes.

Chautin explained that many enjoy these events at the Syosset Public Library because it is not as intimidating as a bigger conven tion like Anime NYC or Comic-Con. Attend ees really get to enjoy everything Sy-Con has to offer, and it’s a safer environment than a convention hall stuffed with people.

“Kids told us they were going to go home and build today and that makes us happy,” Wygant said.

ANTON MEDIA GROUP • SEPTEMBER 14 - 20, 2022 3 TOP STORY

A Fun Day At The Syosset Public Library

Wygant said he and fellow club members were enjoying the Sy-Con, and that he was impressed about the Syosset Public Library’s ability to “drum up” attention and publicity around the event.

On Saturday, Sept. 10, the Syosset Public Library was transformed into a scene of a convention, between gaming and food trucks parked outside, a cosplay contest, table top gaming and a LEGO display by I LUG NY. This year’s event was the third Sy-Con.“Wedid it twice,” said Jessikah Chautin, the community engagement specialist at the Syosset Public Library. “We did it once in 2017 and again in 2019. We were supposed to do it in 2021 but [because it takes] a year to plan a Sy-Con, we decided in early 2020 that we have to postpone it until we knew what was going on with COVID-19.”

at Sy-Con,” said David Benderwerf of Game Master Games. “So, Game Master Games used to be a retail store, but now we have a YouTube channel and we do [live-stream platform] Twitch and we come to conventions and local libraries all over Long Island.”Benderwerf said he and his wife Ginger Walsh were pretty occupied throughout the day teaching games, as at some points all the gaming tables were full.

“We taught 40 different games today here

“We’re meeting a lot of young builders that are excited to [make LEGO models],” Wygant said. “So we tell them when they turn 18, they should join [I LUG NY]. Parents are showing us pictures of what their children build.”

“It’s beyond intricate and it’s an amazing build,” Wygant said. “We had one little girl transfixed and staring at it as it goes around thePeopletrack.”also enjoyed the LEGO mosaics.

“We have a lot of young people here,” Benderwerf said. “So this is the first time they’re exposed to these kind of games and people have been telling me, ‘this game is fantastic. I can’t wait to go buy it.’ And I know some local stores so I help them find it... We really enjoy that not only does this build community, but that a family can sit and learn a game together.”

And upstairs, in the mezzanine, groups gathered around tables surrounded by book shelves to play board and card games they picked from a wide selection provided by Game Master Games, which has been running the table-top gaming every year the event has been held.

“When we’ve done [Sy-Con] in the past, we got people from the boroughs coming in,” Chautin explained. “The staff at the Syosset Public Library is amazing. Without them, there would be no Sy-Con. It is 100 percent a group effort. It’s all hands on deck. Everybody is willing to pitch in and try something. We have a committee that comes together and we meet and everybody just sort of goes all out and puts in 110 percent to make sure it’s a memorable experience.”Conventions in general have been growing in popularity, as more and more people are enjoying genres like anime or superheroes.“It’scrazybecause I was an anime fan in the late ‘80s, early ‘90s and you couldn’t find anime anywhere,” Chautin said. “You went to the back of a comic book store and looked through video cassettes. Now it is literally everywhere. You can not get away from it. And there’s people in their 20s, 30s, 40s who enjoy these things and there’s also generational [interest]. I had a mom, who I’ve known for a while when I worked in the Children’s Department, come in the other day and she’s watching an anime with her 16 and 12-year-old. To me, that’s amazing. That’s who exactly is going to come to SyCon.”Sy-Con is also a presentation, Chautin explained, that the library is changing in what it does.

y-Con Lite was an event anyone can enjoy, whether 5-years-old or 50 and whether a LEGO or superhero fan.

When asked what was the most popular LEGO model of the day, Wygant said it had to be the Space Train, which surrounded Starship models.

“Yes we have all the things you know the library has, but we also have a great staff that are creative and here’s a way to connect on a local level,” Chautin said.

Town Receives Two-Notch Credit Rating Upgrade From Wall Street

“Wall Street continues to recognize our ongoing commitment and success in repairing and maintaining the Town’s financial position,” said Supervisor Saladino. “My administration has made great strides in restoring fiscal integrity by restricting spending, paying down debt and protect ing our taxpayers. This seventh Wall Street credit rating upgrade will save residents real money as the Town will pay significantly less money in interest expenses when bonding for road repaving, park improvements and other critical infrastructure work.”

“And not when it’s slow, when we are so

Earlier this summer, independently-audited financial results indicated that Supervisor Saladino and the Town Board produced a budgetary surplus of $14.6 million in 2021, the fifth straight surplus under this governing board. As a result, the Town of Oyster Bay now has $62.2 million in reserves – the highest level ever.

seventh credit rating increase Supervisor Sal adino and his administration have received since taking office in 2017. In this short period of time, the Supervisor and Town Board have cut property taxes while reducing debt and the operational budget deficit. Since imple menting their first tax cut for 2018, the subse quent four budgets – in 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022 – sustained the $1.3 million property tax cut through a plan that successfully froze taxes. As a result, $6.5 million is in the pockets of taxpayers rather than the coffers of gov ernment. Total town debt has also declined, from a high of $763 million to $576 million at the beginning of 2022, bringing the adminis tration’s five-year cumulative debt reduction to a grand total of $187 million.

ouncilwoman Vicki Walsh seeks volunteers to help plant and maintain the Town of Oyster Bay’s Rain Gardens, which are a critical element of the town’s pollution prevention strategy. During the Rain Garden Work Party on Sunday, Sept. 18 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the Western Waterfront in Oyster Bay, volunteers are needed to assist with weeding, raking, pruning, mulching, and transplanting existing rain gardens, while learning about the environmental benefits these structures offer.

“A rain garden is a collection of native plants placed in a small depression to temporarily hold rain water runoff from roofs, driveways, patios, or lawns. They have numerous environmental benefits, such as filtering pollutants, reducing flooding, and providing food and habitats to wildlife,” Walsh said.

The event will be held in partnership with Friends of the Bay and The Nassau County Soil and Water Conservation District, as these groups collaborated with the Town of Oyster Bay to design and construct the gardens. All volunteers must bring gloves, and community service hours will be offered to participants.“Fromhelping to capture runoff so it does not pollute our waterways to preventing the breeding of mosquitoes, rain gardens have a tremendously positive impact on our environment and water quality. We hope to see you on Sept. 18 at the Western Waterfront to help maintain these gardens,” Walsh concluded.

The authors are correct about a nation that has seen nothing but strife in the new century: The 2000 election, the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, the long wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, the failure of George W. Bush, Barack Obama, and Joe Biden to unite the country, the June 2020 riots and finally, Donald Trump’s out-of-the-blue presidency.Jan.6,2021, just as Sept. 11, 2001, changed nothing. How could it? The nation’s divisions are more severe than the authors may realize. The recent abortion decision highlights those divides as does the demographic revolution, the assaults on American history (108 monuments and statues were torn down or burnt down during the June 2020 riots), the definition of marriage, the voting patterns of urban America and its rural counties, and battles over the mere classroom teaching of American history. This book is partisan; however, the authors deliver no false optimism.PhilipShort’s comprehensive biography of Vladimir Putin ends with a seemingly contradictory note.

Russia. An aide came up with “sovereign democracy.” Russia would be democratic on its terms, not others. Putin may or may not have been a believer, but he came to define Russia as a Christian Orthodox nation. Short, meanwhile, sums up the dilemma in two pithy sentences: “America, the dominant global power, believes that its role is to lead. Russia refuses to be lead.” Is Putin that dangerous? Ask the Ukranians. However, he isn’t the most powerful man in the world. That title now belongs to Xi Jinping, premier of the People’s Republic of China. And herein is the story that will decide Putin’s legacy. With the unprovoked invasion of Ukraine, Putin made the fateful decision to pivot East. Goodbye to the West (if that’s what they want), hello to China and India as consumers of Russia’s energy reserves. The global economy has changed significantly during Putin’s reign. By 2000, 70 percent of the world’s GNP was in the hands of the G-7 nations. By 2020, that number had dropped to 43 percent, with China driving the wheel. Putin will gladly keep delivering energy to wealthy nations in Western Europe. Still, he believes Russia’s destiny is with the Orient.

No one gave Putin a chance for political survival when he became president in 2000. The man was determined to end the civil war in Chechnya, which he did in ruthless fashion. Thanks to rising oil prices the Russian economy rebounded. Putin cut the top tax rate to 18 percent and gave tax credits to young couples having more than one child. In time, Putin felt his oats. His 2007 speech at the Munich security conference lambasted America’s bid for a unipolar world. A 2013 speech criticizing gay rights earned him many admirers in Europe and America. The 2014 invasion of Crimea was viewed by those same conservatives as an example of decisive action. For a time, Putin was hailed as the most powerful man on the planet. Through it all, Putin was searching for an identity to fit post-communist

Nature’s behavior is actually a pretty good metaphor for summer. We stop doing what we usually do and enter into the dormancy called “vacation,” but now that September has crept up on us, it’s time to get back to a time of growth, as will the lawns, once the rains come and the cool weather approaches.Thistimeof year calls for a little more self-care, just as the lawn that emerges from dormancy will need mowing again—and perhaps a bit of fertilizer to prepare it for winter. It might be easy to forget this self-care because we now have the back to school activities and regular work demands. We need to close the pools and bring the houseplants in. So much to do. And while we might notice the effect of an un-mowed lawn after a few weeks, we might not notice the detrimental effect all this busyness has on us.

a strong government organi zation, Roosevelt created the Department of Investigation in 1908. He needed a tough straight shooter for the monumental job of fighting crime and corruption. He reached out to a well-known and vigilant anti-crime voice and chose Charles Bonaparte, the grandnephew of the French emperor. Bonaparte built the department man-by-man until he had the nucleus of a small army whose job was to take on crime.The Department of investiga tion eventually grew into what we

The browning of our lawns does not mean the grass is dying. Rather it is a rather resourceful mecha nism of self-preservation for these plants called “going dormant”—a process that keeps the lawns alive for around six weeks. At that point they’ll definitely need a drink or the blades will take on a grayish hue that indicates imminent death.

Recently I wrote this to my parishioners: “Could you imagine that parents would want their child to belong to a baseball team and then say, ‘You don’t really need to go to any games. Just join your team remotely!’ This kind of belonging still connects their child with the team, but by not actually participating in person, the message is: ‘Your presence and participation doesn’t matter.’ And how do you think the coach feels when team members are only remote members?

Of course as a pastor I want to make the case that “keeping holy the Lord’s Day” is good for all of us. For those of us who recognize Sunday as the Lord’s Day it is time to get beyond our past COVID excuses and just come back to pray together again. Many churches were able to stream their Masses and services during the time of pandemic and some of the faithful got used to watching from afar. But that is like Facetiming the family on Thanksgiving Day instead of going over the river and through the woods to grandmother’s house. “Being there” is one of the best forms of self-care possible.

The North Shore Land Alliance’s 14 preserves provide neighbors and other visitors a chance to connect with nature while enjoying 32 acres of pre served open space. We welcome everyone to our slices of heav en—including our leashed furry friends. However, two recent troubling incidents that occurred because of irresponsible dog owners have compromised the safety of our preserve workers, visitors, pets and wildlife. Last week an off-leash dog attacked another (leashed) dog, resulting in an injury that required emergency veterinary care. Just days later, another dog broke away from its owners and fatally attacked a large deer in the preserve. To the horror of onlookers, this vicious attack lasted more than 30 minutes. Both events could have been entirely prevented by owners keeping their dogs on a sturdy leash. Not only do leashes prevent dangerous encounters with other animals, but they can ensure the safety of your pet and other visitors.

Retired Nassau BOCES Administrator Honored

arbara Longo, former assistant director of Nassau BOCES Special Education Department, was lauded as one of the most devoted supporters of public education on Long Island. Longo is among 15 honorees to receive the 2022 Nassau BOCES Education Partner award, bestowed annually on those individuals and organizations whose impact on public edu cation in Nassau County can be measured in tangible ways.

A strategic education partner with school districts since 1967, Nassau BOCES created the awards program to recognize those who share its mission of ensuring a successful, challenging, caring and safe environment that enables students of all ages and abilities to achieve their maximum potential. These outstanding individuals and organizations have made strides in accomplishing key edu cational goals embraced by Nassau BOCES, such as ensuring student success.

“Throughout her career, Ms. Longo has af fected growth and change leading to student achievement, sustainability and progress,” BOCES Board member Robert “B.A.” Schoen said at the awards gala. “We salute her for the incredible efforts she’s made on behalf of students with special needs.”

Longo went on to Adelphi University to earn her degree in education and began teaching in Western Suffolk schools. From there, she returned to RKS to teach full time. She soon took on the role of coordinator of the school’s summer program. From there, she went on to become assistant principal at Nassau BOCES Ames and Fern Place Elementary Schools (a split position), those schools eventually moved and merged to become the Jerusalem Avenue Elementary School. After that, she was appointed assistant principal for RKS and the Center for Community Adjustment.

Local schools soon recognized Longo’s abilities as an educational leader, and she was enlisted to serve as an administrator for two different districts. Throughout her tenure as an educator, she has fostered a learning environment that is stimulating, motivating, supportive and inclusive of the entire learning community.

Inevitably, Longo returned to Nassau BOCES, this time as supervisor of the Special Education Department, eventually moving into the role of assistant director. Under her guidance and leadership, a number of innovative programs were developed to meet the diverse needs students throughout Nassau County. Her work ethic, as well as her motivational and support skills, have made her a touchstone in navigating some of the biggest challenges to face Long Island schools.Visitwww.nassauboces.org. by Nassau BOCES

1. CLEAN UP VEGETABLE/HERB GARDENS

SEPTEMBER 14 - 20, 2022 • DESIGN & DÉCOR | 3B

As the autumn season approaches, it’s an excellent time for homeowners to examine their gardens and prepare them for the cooler temperatures to come. Although you may think of gardening only during the summer months, caring for your garden during the fall can help it survive the winter season and produce a healthy crop next year. Whether you’re growing a vegetable garden, flower bed or even trees and shrubs, these fall garden maintenance tips will ensure your entire landscape is ready for temperatures to drop.

f you’re not sure where to begin on your fall garden maintenance checklist, the best place to start is by removing all dried plants and weeds in your garden bed. Keeping such plants in your garden over the winter could lead to pests and disease, thus preventing a healthy garden next year. For this reason, be on the lookout for any spent crops,

4. PLANT A COVER CROP

As you remove plant debris from your garden, now is also an excellent time for removing gardening supplies. Items such as stakes, cages and labels should be gathered and put away to be used again next spring.

If you’re looking to establish more trees and shrubs on your lawn, fall is the best time to plant while the ground is still workable. Generally, the ideal time to plant new trees is six weeks before the first sign of hard frost. Planting anytime between September through November will allow your new trees to establish their roots before winter sets in.

7. APPLY FALL FERTILIZER

Although the gardening season may be coming to a close, your perennial plants will continue growing until they go dormant in late fall. To prepare them for the colder temperatures, be sure to remove all weeds and any parts of the plant infested with disease or pests. If you’re planning on adding more plants to your garden, consider planting spring-blooming bulbs this fall while the soil is still warm.

Visit www.sodsolutions.com for more lawn care products and advice.

Pre-emergent weed killers are used for controlling weeds before they appear above the ground. To promote a weed-free garden next year, consider applying fall pre-emergents to your garden once all plant debris is removed.

Don’t forget to continue watering your perennials at least once a week until the ground freezes. Once the ground does freeze, cover the crown of your newly planted perennials with a four- to 5-inch layer of bark mulch. This mulch may also be used to cover perennials that are sensitive to frost.

Similar to fall lawn care, many gardens and trees can benefit from fertilizer before winter sets in. Fall fertilizer is best applied in late fall before the first frost, as it will help plants endure the approaching cold temperatures. Following these simple fall garden maintenance tips will help your plants survive the cold temperatures of winter. Whether you plan on growing a cool season crop, or you simply want to protect your garden, this fall garden checklist will ensure a healthy, thriving garden next spring.

as well as plants that are infested with disease. Tilling your garden is an excellent way to expose any dried plants or weeds. It will also reveal any pests hiding in your garden, including fall armyworms, which are most active during the fall.

While the summer growing season may be over, there are still many plants you can grow over the winter. The most common frost-tolerant crops for fall planting include broccoli, cauliflower, kale, lettuce, parsnips, garlic, cabbage, collards and spinach. Many of these crops not only grow well during the fall, but they taste better after a light frost. Be sure to cover your plants as soon as any frost is forecasted to ensure your garden survives the winter.

3. CARE FOR TREES AND SHRUBS

2. PREPARE YOUR PERENNIAL GARDEN FOR WINTER

For those who have trees and shrubs, autumn is the perfect season to check on your shrubbery and prepare them for winter. One way to care for your trees this fall is to cover the soil around them with mulch. Adding a fresh layer of mulch around the base of your tree will protect the roots from harsh winter conditions. Avoid covering the trunk with mulch, however, as this could cause rot and other diseases. In addition to mulching, fall is also an ideal time to prune your shrubs once dormancy has started.

Feng Shui is the practice of arranging living spaces to invite positive energy into your home. Houseplants play a large role in this practice, helping us to reconnect with nature while indoors and providing more balance to our lives. Some of the most popular Feng-Shui-friendly plants include jade plant, calathea, rubber tree and lucky bamboo.

Keep these interior gardening principles in mind as you design your space:

BY KAREN MUSGRAVE, CNLP

• Keep the lighting, watering and fertilization needs of your plants in mind.

Houseplants are often an afterthought when it comes to decorating a home. We think about where we will entertain, dine, and sleep but often overlook the important role houseplants play in design. They are architecturally interesting and can completely transform the look and feel of a space. Whether you want an indoor jungle overflowing with plants or a few well-placed options to soften a room, there are many houseplants available to fit your needs and complement your home.

• Choose leaf colors that complement your space.

• Incorporate plant stands, bookcases and pottery to upgrade the look of your plants.Houseplants

Bunch up some burlap, attach a bit of artificial foliage, and add ribbon accents for the perfect autumn wreath. There are many DIY approaches to this fall craft, so you’re bound to find the option that best fits your home’s interior or exterior styling.

To make a mason jar vase, just add some painted accents to the outside, tie the top with twine, and fill the whole thing with an artificial bouquet. Use this simple rustic craft as a DIY centerpiece, or set one on your bedside table as fall room decor.

Fall foliage is well-known for its beauty, so why not preserve a piece of that beauty to display in your own home. All you need is a photo frame and a leaf— or several leaves–to pull off this autumn craft. Then, once you’re done, you’ll be left with a one-of-a-kind piece of wall art.

GO FOR TOUCH-UPS

Once your house is shiny and clean, you may find that the entire house doesn’t need repainting—just the trim and the front door. While you’re at it, consider brightening the facade with a touch of contrasting color. You’ll be surprised by how a little pop of color can really freshen up the place.

needles, leaves, spare pickleballs, or other detritus that might have accumulated there. Buyers are justifiably picky about the condition of the roof, especially when it comes to pickleballs.

Washing the windows is a given, but before you do that, think about giving your house a good power wash to remove the dirt, grime, and moss that may have accumulated over the years. This could save you the expense of repainting your entire home.

CONSIDER THE MAILBOX

A new mailbox gives the home a fresh appearance.

This involves not only cutting the grass, but also clearing out any dead limbs, plants, and other unwanted foliage that might be hanging around. In addition, get rid of any tree branches or bushes that may make your yard look crowded and dark, and trim all hedges so that they look neat. Finally, plant some colorful flowers—best to do it a couple of weeks before the house goes on the market, so they’ve had the chance to grow in a bit and don’t look too contrived.

What is curb appeal? This all-important practice will improve how your home looks to buyers right as they pull up and park—or even as they drive by (slowly, one hopes). That includes your front yard, driveway, and your home’s exterior, from its paint job to the potted plants on your patio to even the welcome mat that greets people as they pass through your front door.

Well-landscaped homes have a sales price advantage.

If some of the shingles have come loose or there’s visible damage to your roof, you absolutely must fix that. Hire a roof specialist to see just how much work is needed, then get it done. If your roof is relatively new and in good shape, at least clean off any pine

If your mailbox is on the street, there’s a good chance it’s been a bit beaten up. In

BY LISA JOHNSON MANDELL specialsections@antonmediagroup.com

Adding curb appeal doesn’t have to cost an outrageous amount of money. You’d be surprised by how inexpensive “prettifying” your home’s front exterior can be, if you’re willing to do a little work yourself. Or maybe a lot of work. (Hey, you want to sell the place, right?)

It’s one area where every bit of work you do can pay off. For real. Renovation expert Bob Vila estimates that this first impression could add 20 percent to your home’s value (a figure that rivals, or sometimes surpasses, the return on a new kitchen or bath).

One of the most important aspects of curb appeal is getting the grounds to look as good as they possibly can. Alex X. Niemiera, a horticulturist at Virginia Tech, found that well-landscaped homes

CHECK LIGHT FIXTURES

And when the lights are on? You may have just nailed the curb appeal deal.

A small investment in a new front porch light can work wonders, but you’ll also want to pay attention to the condition of any other light fixtures in front, like those that may be on either side of the garage, or the street light in your front yard. Yes, potential buyers will probably make their first visit during the day, but attractive light fixtures can really add to the appeal of a home even if the lights aren’t on.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People go out of their way to avoid getting hurt, but pain is not the enemy. Pain is a message, a teacher and a call to greatness.

Keep in mind that the concept of ownership is human-made and di ers according to culture and timing. e right answer is subjective, and you’ll decide for yourself.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). You may get impatient with what’s asked of you this week, but as long as you’re learning, you’re golden.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). You care about people, and you’ll ask what they think and how they feel. Even if you don’t agree, you’ll learn from their opinions.

n honor of the 50th anniversary of Ben’s Kosher Deli, the kosher deli and restau rant hosted a kid’s salad making competi tion in August at the Greenvale location. Several young competitors showed off their creativity and culinary skills while making their own salads with pre-cut ingredients. The winning salad “Rio’s Best Salad of All” created by 7-year-old Rio of the North Shore will be featured on Ben’s menu for the month of September. The salad includes: spinach, salami, hard-boiled egg, black ol ives, cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, shredded carrots, onions and honey mustard dressing.

Top Reasons To Adopt A Pet

6. Because your home will thank you. Many of the pets from shelters and rescues are already house-trained, which means you’re not only saving a pet’s life, you may be saving your rug. Adopting a mature pet not only gives older animals a second chance, it often means introducing them to your family will be much easier.

10. Because you’ll change a homeless animal’s whole world. And get a new best friend out of the deal. Seriously, what could be better than that?

“In addition to free adoption month, the town will be hosting a Free Rabies Vaccina tion Clinic at the Animal Shelter on Sept. 17 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. No reservations are necessary,” said Councilman Steve Labriola. Microchip services will also be available for a $25 fee.

“I invite and encourage residents looking for a new pet, to check in with the town’s An imal Shelter during the month of September, as general adoption fees will be waived,” said Supervisor Joseph Saladino. “Our shelter staff has a wonderful reputation for provid ing great care to the pets housed there, and has a long history of uniting those looking for a fur-ever companion.”

9. Because The Shelter Pet Project makes it easy. You can go to the Shelter Pet Project at theshelterpetproject.org to find pets near you, of every size, color, temperament and breed. Purebred and mixed breed animals alike are waiting for their forever homes.

If you buy a dog from a pet store, online seller or flea market, you’re almost certainly getting a dog from a puppy mill. Puppy mills are factory-style breeding facilities that put profit above the welfare of dogs. Animals from puppy mills are housed in shockingly poor conditions with improper medical care and are often very sick and behaviorally troubled as a result. The moms of these puppies are kept in cages to be bred

spay/neuter, first vaccinations (and sometimes even microchipping) is included in the adoption price, which can save you some of the upfront costs of adding a new member to your family. Depending on the animal, you may also save on housebreaking and training expenses.

2. Because you’ll get a great animal. Animal shelters and rescue groups are brimming with happy, healthy pets just waiting for someone to take them home. Most shelter pets wound up there because of a human problem like a move or a divorce, not because the animals did anything wrong. Many are already housetrained and used to living with families.

“Sometimes people are wary of bringing home an older pet, but senior animals are often easier to care for, especially for senior residents,” Saladino said.

When potential adopters come to the shelter, they generally have an idea of what type of pet they are looking for and what the best fit is for their family and lifestyle, but the Town of Oyster Bay Animal Shelter staff, Sala dino said, can help adopters ensure they find the right pet for their lifestyle and family.

over and over for years, without human companionship and with little hope of ever joining a family. And after they’re no longer profitable, breeding dogs are simply dis carded—either killed, abandoned or sold at auction. By adopting a pet, you can be certain you aren’t giving them a dime.

4. Because of the bragging rights. No one needs to see another selfie—unless it’s a selfie of you with the adorable pet you just adopted! Adopt a pet, post those pictures and let the well-earned likes roll in.

7. Because all pets are good for your health, but adoptees offer an extra boost.

Residents interested in visiting the shelter can call to make an appointment.

Potential adopters who are interested in a dog who already have a dog at home will be asked to arrange a “meet and greet” prior to adoption.

During the month of September, the shel ter will waive the general adoption fees of $80 per dog and $84 per cat. All usual adoption services will be provided, including the spay ing or neutering of the animal, vaccination and microchipping. Residents interested in viewing the animals available for adoption can call the shelter to make an appointment, or visit “Adoptingwww.oysterbaytown.com.yournewbestfriend from an animal shelter or rescue organization has so many benefits,” Saladino said. “Adopting a pet comes with a lower cost, full health evaluation and of course, the best gift of knowing that you are giving that animal a new chance at a wonderful life.”

“If a pet is ever lost, they can be taken to a vet clinic or animal shelter where they will be scanned for a microchip ID and returned to their rightful owner,” Labriola said.

5. Because it’s one way to fight puppy mills.

Saladino added that while the shelter staff consistently helps the pets in the shelter find appropriate homes throughout the year, offering free adoptions does tend to bring an increase in interest from residents

During this month, people are also encouraged to adopt senior pets.

1. Because you’ll save a life. Each year, it’s estimated that more than one million adoptable dogs and cats are euthanized in the United States, simply because too many pets come into shelters and too few people consider adoption when looking for a pet. The number of euthanized animals could be reduced dramatically if more people adopt pets instead of buying them. When you adopt dogs and cats, you save a loving animal by making them part of your family and open up shelter space for another animal who might desperately need it.

looking for new pets.

Overburdened shelters take in millions of stray, abused and lost animals every year, and by adopting an animal, you’re making room for others. Not only are you giving more animals a second chance, but the cost of your adoption goes directly towards helping those shelters better care for the animals they take in.

For decades, the North Shore has been afflicted by harmful algal blooms, dense invasive seaweed, fish kills and beach closures as a result of excess nitrogen from untreated wastewater in septic tanks and cesspools. In addition to reducing nitrogen in our bays, beaches, and harbors, it is critical that we treat septic wastewater be fore it contaminates our drinking water. Nassau County sits directly above a major Special Groundwater Protection Area (SGPA) where freshwater replenishes into a deep recharge aquifer. Any untreated wastewater that flows into the aquifer will eventually make its way into our drinking water.

To hit water quality goals, the North Shore of Nassau County will need to upgrade more than 20,000 existing septic systems with clean water technology. Clean water septic systems convert nitrogen in wastewater into a harmless gas by harnessing natural processes.

In Nassau County, grants are available to cover up to 95 percent of the costs needed to upgrade septic tanks and cesspools with clean water septic systems.

These systems are so effective they can remove up to 95 percent of nitrogen from wastewater when compared to conventional septic tanks. Removing excess nitrogen from the environment will help restore our commercial fishing, boating, and recreation industry and improve drinking water for generations to come.
