intrigued to learn that the date holds little significance for those who reside across the Atlantic. The celebration which ensues on the main streets of many cities in America is, in fact, unique to the great U.S. of A. While spring officially arrives in just about two weeks, I have always associated the beginning of the season with the arrival of the Easter bunny and all the pastel decor it brings. Once April gets underway, it’s a fast track to warmer days ahead, afternoons spent soaking up the sun on the beach and summer concerts under the stars. But I digress. March, the month of tumult and turmoil, fading out into the serenity of spring. So it flows, and with

Musings on March In like a lion… so blow the winds of March, and with them, promises of springtime blossoms nurtured by the warmth of the sun. But until then, we must contend with the last of winter’s storms, cold and rainy as they may be. Seems to be a metaphor for life as a whole, this month of transition which ushers us out of the doldrums of our hibernation into newfound energy and possibility. Of course, change is not necessarily seasonal, nor is it always dictated by Mother Nature, but the symbolism holds true nonetheless. Being of Irish descent, one of the more notable milestones has always been St. Patrick’s Day; however, upon visiting the Emerald Isle several years back, I was

it we too are carried on the breeze as it beckons better things ahead. In the words of a quote I recently came across, We do not fear the unknown. We fear what we think we know about the unknown. A wise sentiment indeed. If only we could manage to harness these apprehensions and redirect them into positive motivation and drive to move forward, we would all be in much better position to succeed. Easier said than done, as with most things; but still, worth the effort in changing our mentality. Perhaps in the spring. ’Til then, stay warm and dry and enjoy these last few weeks of winter. And then, out like a lamb… to brighter days just over the horizon.

KIC Award Keep Islip Clean recently presented New York State Lottery winners Chris Finno and Ellie Krepela with a Citation as a token of gratitude for their generous donation in support of the organization’s volunteer

projects. Chris and Ellie, who are KIC volunteers, shared their good fortune by contributing to local notfor-profit organizations. “Hundreds of KIC sponsored Earth Day events are just around the

corner, so the contribution is certainly well timed. It’s wonderful having Chris and Ellie as volunteers as well as benefactors,” said KIC Executive Director Nancy Cochran.

March Charity of the Month:

The Welcome Friends soup kitchens have provided hot, nutritious meals five days every week for over 27 years. The volunteer staff has increased to more than 200 remarkable members, and the guests typically number between 50 to sometimes more than 70 each night. Welcome Friends operates with a 100% volunteer staffed organization, assuring contributors that their donations are used exclusively for the preparation and serving of meals. The volunteers form an outstanding team that addresses hunger and works to expand relationships with individual supporters, local food markets, farm stands, religious institutions, community leaders and local village government. They begin the day early, picking up and delivering food donations. The food is then stored, sorted and prepared for the chefs. Volunteers set up, serve and clean after mealtimes. After almost three decades serving the greater Port Jefferson area, the leaders

and volunteers of Port Jefferson’s Soup Kitchen announced their decision to become an independent not-for-profit corporation, named “Welcome Friends.” The operation has become selfsustaining with a solid foundation of local community support. As they enter this exciting phase, the new corporation will serve our neighbors in the same caring tradition that has been the hallmark of these soup kitchens. Welcome Friends has independently met the challenge to become selfsustaining to ensure that guests need not fear the loss of meals. Under the leadership of the Executive Committee and Kitchen Coordinators, volunteers create a sense of community for neighbors affected by hunger and poverty by serving them with dignity and respect in a safe welcoming environment. Welcome Friends is currently in need of the following volunteer positions: Cooks, Assistant Cooks/ Food Prep and Pick Up/Delivery and a Grant Writer! If you are interested in any of these positions, please e-mail VolunteerWelcomeFriends@gmail.com or call 631.403.6707. This organization also accepts monetary donations, which can be sent to Welcome Friends Soup Kitchen - PO Box 88, Port Jefferson Station, NY 11776.

The cast rehearsed together for 80 hours in addition to the time they spent practicing lines, songs and dances at home, while the crew put in remarkable effort in mastering lights, sound, props and makeup. Set and costume design were

handled by the musical’s assistant director, Jean Marie D’Aversa, with help from Diane Doyle. “The passion and dedication of our students, along with many hours of rehearsal, paid off to make this show a success,” said director Alyssa Tripi. “We are very proud of every student involved.”

In a true group effort, more than 70 East Islip Middle School students worked seamlessly to present a successful production of “The Little Mermaid” as this year’s school musical. Three magical performances were held in the school’s auditorium on February 9th, 10th and 11th. “The Little Mermaid” starred sixth-grader Hanna Ross in the leading role of Ariel, eighth-grader Trevor Cox as Prince Eric, seventh-grader Tristan Hearth as Sebastian, sixthgrader Leah Dolson as Flounder, eighth-grader Emily Blair as Scuttle, eighth-grader Tim Hogan as King Triton and eighthgrader Allison Lichter as Ursula. Additional cast members included Angelina DeAmicis as Flotsam, Kristy Murphy as Jetsam, Isabelle IrizarryMcAdam as Aquata, Sydney Holmes as Andrina, Brooke Lubin as Arista, Sophia LoMonaco as Atina, Samantha Federico as Adella, Kelly Waldron as Allana, James Mendolia as Grimsby, Tim McCall as

opportunity for them to share their work with a larger audience.” “I’m honored to be a part of such a prestigious event and couldn’t wait to see artists’ works from other schools,” said Stengel. She has taken nearly every art course that East Islip High School has to offer and received a 5 on her AP drawing exam last year. Stengel plans to pursue a career in illustration, and was awarded with the highest merit scholarship to attend the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan next fall. “I can’t believe I was given this amazing ART-pportunity,” said Rant. “My artwork, ‘Peacocking,’ is based on personal experience and my interactions with the people I surround myself with.” A skilled drawer and cartoonist with a knack for humor, Rant is likewise considering SVA, but plans to pursue cartooning. She has also been accepted to Columbia College in Manhattan and Savannah College of Art and Design in Georgia, and is in

the process of making a decision for her college career. “Being selected for the Go APE show was unexpected,” said Mavrich, acclaimed for her ability to create photorealistic portraits. “I feel accomplished. My artwork, ‘Emma & Jenny,’ showcases my best friend and my cousin. I captured the calmness of Emma and the energetic nature and excitement of Jenny in the work.” Mavrich has also applied to SVA and plans to attend the fine arts program there. “I was excited to be able to showcase my work after four years of hard work in my art classes,” said Tergesen of Go APE. “My progression over the years has lead to an artwork that I’m really proud of. I feel accomplished that am able to show this piece alongside other AP art students on Long Island.” Tergesen plans to pursue interior design next year and hopes to attend the New York School of Interior Design this fall.

In shadows pressed against nighttime’s slumber We dream, seeking contentment, feeling hope Awakening in morning’s light, preparing Examining lost emotions, trying to satisfy the soul Taking our footsteps upon one’s destined path Roads that seem empty, isolated, become the focus Of a soul bound by moments that share forgiveness Feeling alive and a sense of redemption’s direction

East Islip High School seniors Melissa Mavrich, Jordan Rant, Zoe Stengel and Jenna Tergesen have been featured in the Art League of Long Island’s 11th annual Go APE Advanced Placement Student Exhibition. The exhibit runs from February 17th through March 4th at the Art League’s Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery in Dix Hills, celebrating the exceptional talents of Long Island’s young AP art students, as selected by their teachers. These East Islip students are enrolled in Daniel Figliozzi’s AP art 2-D design course; they will attend a Go APE closing artists’ reception at the gallery on March 4. All four seniors plan to attend art school in the fall and are in the process of applying and committing to schools. “These four girls are amazing,” said Figliozzi. “This is my fourth year teaching all of them, and they have shown amazing growth and transformation in their art practices. I was more than happy to select them for this exhibition, as it is a wonderful

Congratulations to the winning teams of the Great Chili Cook-off held at the Islip Career Center. The Islip Career Center is an Eastern Suffolk BOCES school that provides special career education services to students with special needs. The assignment for students in this Introduction to Cooking Program required them to perform numerous tasks designed to teach life and employment skills, both of which promote independence. Those exercises included sourcing a chili recipe online, developing a recipe theme with corresponding table signage and décor, adhering to a budget, following all recipe instructions, preparing the chili and any side dishes or condiments, and being able to answer judges’ questions. All recipes were assessed by a panel of school staff

members and points were awarded based on various criteria, such as taste and presentation. Said Chef Michael Frankson, Introduction to Cooking teacher, “Completing this contest is a great activity for

my students. The many facets bolster their confidence while teaching indispensable life skills, as well as proficiency for possible entry-level employment in the food service industry.”

Town Supervisor Angie Carpenter and members of the Islip Town Board, joined in celebration of Edward Stephenson Bates, a WWII U.S. Navy Veteran and nationally acclaimed artist. Born in 1915, Mr. Bates began his career as an artist at the young age of 15, winning the Bamburger Award from the State of Pennsylvania

and a Scholastic Award, for his rendition of the Atlantic City Seascape. After serving in the Navy in WWII, he moved to New York in 1955 and became an illustrator of women’s wear. His vivid oil-paintings are renowned for capturing the heart and essence of African American culture, and have been displayed in prestigious art shows,

museums, colleges, libraries, municipalities and banks throughout Long Island, the Tri-State Area and other parts of the United States. Throughout the month of February, the masterful work of Ed Bates has been on display in the hallways of Islip Town Hall outside of the Town Board room.

Chosen for Showcase Building. The Legislative Student Art Exhibition, cosponsored by New York State United Teachers, showcases New York State’s art programs. “I’m excited to have my work on display up in Albany for this exhibit,” said Montijo. “I was honored to be chosen to exhibit because I

want to pursue the visual arts as a career,” said Milito. “I am so proud of Jessica and Stephanie,” said their teacher Heather Toomey. “They are really talented and always work really hard in class. They were chosen for their high quality work and creative projects.”

Food Protection Seminar

EAST ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 7, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone today announced the county’s annual public seminar to inform residents and businesses on updates to the Suffolk County Food Protection Program. The Food Protection Program is designed to protect public health by establishing safeguards for the control of food and preventing consumption of unwholesome, adulterated or otherwise unfit food.

The Suffolk County Department of Health Services will host the seminar on Monday, March 19th from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m., located at 360 Yaphank Ave., Room 134 in Yaphank. The presentation, which will last about one hour, will include information on issues such as new technology and compliance matters. These include the development of mobile food safety applications and online e-commerce portal; food preparation

techniques that use reduced oxygen packaging (ROP); and new local laws regarding food allergens, carryout shopping bags, and methods for reducing risk factors for food-borne illness.

Protection. The County Executive has made it a priority to provide a more convenient process for businesses to undergo mandatory food safety training. Last year, the Administration announced the debut of a new mobile application that offers food service managers the convenience to undergo food safety training in Suffolk County. This new application is offered by the Suffolk County Department of Health Services as a

portable extension of its award-winning online Food Manager’s Course. The application is available free of charge on Google Play and the Apple Store. To date, more than 107,000 Food Managers have been certified since the course’s inception.

Spring Into Safety The days are getting longer and the temperature is warming. This means that Daylight Savings Time will soon begin, and New Yorkers will set their clocks forward one hour on March 11th. The Firemen’s Association of the State of New York (FASNY) urges all New Yorkers to take this opportunity check their smoke and carbon monoxide alarms to ensure their homes are properly protected. If alarms have removeable batteries, those batteries should be replaced. Alarms equipped with sealed-in batteries should be tested to ensure they are in proper working

condition. Alarms that are more than 10 years old should be replaced. At the end of 2015, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed a bill into law that will require all smoke alarms sold in New York State to be equipped with sealed-in, non-removable batteries that last for at least 10 years. The new law will take effect in 2019 and marks an important step in improving New York’s fire safety. According to research from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), three of every five home fire deaths occur in homes without working

smoke alarms, and the vast majority of smoke alarm failures are due to dead or missing batteries. Ten-year smoke alarms require little maintenance, and unlike alarms with removable batteries, they are nearly impossible to deactivate. Regardless of the type of alarm in one’s home, FASNY urges everybody to take some time and ensure their alarms are in proper working order. “Smoke alarms are the single most importance appliance found in every home,” said FASNY President Ken Pienkowski. “FASNY urges all New Yorkers to conduct routine,

simple maintenance to ensure these lifesaving devices are in proper order. We strongly encourage New Yorkers to install 10-year smoke alarms, which cannot be easily deactivated. Equally important is installing and maintaining carbon monoxide alarms, which are also critical in protecting life.” FASNY smoke & CO alarm tips: • Test alarms at least once a month by using the test button. • If you have an alarm with a removable battery, be sure to check the batteries

•

• • •

every six months, and change the batteries every year. If a battery is starting to lose its power, the unit will usually chirp to warn you. Do NOT disable the unit. Vacuum or blow out any dust that might have accumulated in the unit. NEVER borrow a battery from an alarm to use somewhere else. NEVER paint a smoke or CO alarm. Install at least one smoke alarm on every floor of your home, including the basement, and in, or

near each sleeping area. • Smoke alarms should not be installed near a window because drafts could interfere with their operation. • Families should also develop and practice a home fire escape plan. • Always follow the manufacturer's instructions for testing smoke alarms and replacing the batteries. For more information on smoke alarms, carbon monoxide alarms, and other information on fire safety and prevention, visit www.fasny.com and www. nfpa.org.

EAST ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 7, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Suffolk County Sheriff Errol D. Toulon, Jr. announced today that the Sheriff’s Office has launched a redesigned website at www. suffolksheriff.com. The project was one of the newly elected Sheriff’s first priorities because he wanted to ensure that the public had easy access to information such as visiting and bail instructions, filing for income and property executions, volunteer and intern opportunities - and the wide array of special programs offered by the Suffolk County Sheriff’s Office. “The redesigned website

is easier to navigate and contains information on so many of the services that we offer to the public,” said Sheriff Toulon. He added, “I wanted it to be userfriendly, informative and modern, and I think we hit the mark.” One of Sheriff Toulon’s priorities is educating the public about substance abuse, with a focus on prevention. Links to resources are available directly from the homepage. “I intend to be very outspoken about the drug epidemic and we will be continually posting information and updates on our website, Facebook,

First Lego League Championship

Twitter, Instagram and YouTube,” said Sheriff Toulon. All of the Sheriff’s social media accounts are accessible to users navigating through the site. The public will be interested to know that the Sheriff’s Office offers Personal Jail Tours for young people and a tracking device called Project Lifesaver that provides another level of safety for individuals that wander due to cognitive impairments.

things. Once a problem was identified, the students then evaluated current solutions that add value to society, developed an innovative solution, and subsequently presented their project to the Judges. In addition, using a LEGO MINDSTORMS® kit, they designed and built a robot to solve missions on the competition tables. FIRST LEGO League introduces young people to the excitement of learning with its partner The LEGO Group. Students are encouraged to explore and pursue science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) fields both within the FIRST program and in their future education and careers. Students presented their solutions during one of six different Qualifier tournaments that were held at Great Hollow Middle School and Mineola High School in late January and early February. Teams that competed at the Qualifiers worked to earn an opportunity to advance to the SBPLI FIRST LEGO League Championship at Longwood High School on

Sunday, March 4th. The full list of 40 teams that earned the chance to compete in the Championship tournament are noted below. These teams will work to earn the chance to advance to the FIRST World Festival in Detroit on April 28th. “We had a great FIRST LEGO League season on Long Island and we are looking forward to our final event at Longwood,” says Stephanie Stern, CoProgram Director and SBPLI/FIRST Long Island representative. “Every year, we are amazed at the skills that our students acquire from this program – be it teamwork and sportsmanship or science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education. As we continue to add new teams and events, we project continued growth among FIRST LEGO League students in the years to come.” For more information on SBPLI and the FIRST Long Island complement of programs, or to become a sponsor, please visit www. sbpli-lifirst.org.

Following a series of six qualifiers, 40 FIRST® LEGO® League teams from across Nassau and Suffolk Counties are set to compete at the SBPLI Long Island Championship at Longwood High School on Sunday, March 4th. During the event, presented by SchoolBusiness Partnerships of Long Island, Inc. (SBPLI), students (ages nine to 14) and their mentors from the program will present their LEGO robots that best address the “Challenge” set forth in this year’s theme – FIRST HYDRO DYNAMICSSM. Throughout the season, these teams were among the more than 190 that worked hard to research, design, build, program and test LEGO robots that address a problem within the human water cycle. Students were first tasked with identifying the problem - it could be something as simple as quenching one’s thirst or swimming in a pool, or as complicated as how water is used to produce food, energy and even technology, among other

This year marks a full decade since SchoolBusiness Partnerships of Long Island, Inc. (SBPLI) began presenting FIRST® LEGO® League Jr. to students across the region. What began as a small (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) STEMfocused initiative for students age six to 10 has now grown into a powerhouse program aimed at igniting the creativity of children on nearly 100 teams. Each year, FIRST reveals a new and exciting challenge, dubbed this year as AQUA ADVENTURESM, for which students will have to do research and present their findings at one of three FIRST LEGO League Expos.

During this year’s Expos, which are slated to take place Saturday, March 3rd at Mineola High School and Sunday, March 4th, at Longwood High School, students are asked to navigate the uncharted waters of the Earth’s most important resource. Specifically, they were tasked with discovering from where everyday water resources come, and what happens on its way to consumers. After carefully selecting one way in which they use water and learning as much as possible about the process the water takes to get to that point, the students then work to develop a solution that improves upon the system. “We are so excited to celebrate 10 years of

presenting FIRST LEGO League Jr. to students across the Island,” says Rick Ramhap, Program Director and SBPLI/FIRST Long Island representative. “This program has been especially vital to elementary age students, who acquire realworld skills in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) necessary to succeed in today’s hightech workforce. As with all FIRST Long Island programs, we project continued growth in the years to come.” For more information on SBPLI and the FIRST Long Island complement of programs, or to become a sponsor, please visit www. sbpli-lifirst.org.

“I’d like to say that our engagement story was picture-perfect but, the truth is our engagement was as real life as it gets. Kurt was coming over and, on his way in, he gave me a package from “outside” that he said must had been delivered. I didn’t think too much of it; I figured it was something I had ordered for Christmas. I opened it up and there was a box of Lucky Charms with a very legitimate looking letterhead. It said that I was a winner of their “Marshmallows Only” contest, which I had entered religiously over past few months since their promotion started. I was so excited that I put down the letter before I finished reading it, and took out two bowls for him and I to enjoy. A few minutes passed and he asked me if I read the letter and I answered him “yes” - but the truth is I didn’t. I was too involved in my marshmallow winnings to be concerned about the invoice. He picked it up and said to me that I won a prize. I answered him, “Of course I won a prize, we are eating it! Marshmallows are the best prize ever!” I took the letter from him and finished reading it. It said “Congratulations Ms. Titcomb! Please take the prize at the bottom of the box as a token of our appreciation!” I reached in the box and pulled out a little blue velvet box, and when I turned around, he was down on one knee and asked me for my hand in marriage. I was so surprised I wanted to scream with joy, but I still had a mouthful of marshmallows and started to choke a little bit. He asked me if I was okay and to please not throw up on him. I was finally able to stop coughing and he looked up at me - still down on one knee because I had forgotten to answer him! I finally realized and said, “Yes, 100 million times, YES!” He got up and we kissed and I was crying tears of pure joy! I realized he had painstakingly hand-picked out hundreds of marshmallows over weeks and weeks to give me the absolute sweetest, thoughtful engagement I could have ever imagined. It may not have been picture-perfect for everyone, but it couldn’t have been more perfect for us. Sometimes things don’t always go exactly as planned, but with a little bit of luck and a heart filled with love, memories like this will surely be cherished forever!”
