to more than 300,000 Long Islanders who are at risk of hunger and food insecurity. “Participating in Stamp Out Hunger is easy,” says Randi Shubin Dresner, president and CEO of Island Harvest Food Bank. “Simply leave nonperishable food items in a bag next to your mailbox before your regularly scheduled mail delivery on Saturday, May 12th, and your USPS letter carrier will do the rest.” Nonperishable food items needed include canned goods, cereal, pasta, rice, boxed juices and shelf-stable milk (please, no glass items). All food donated on Long Island will help replenish Island Harvest Food Bank’s network of food pantries, soup kitchens and other emergency feeding programs in Nassau and Suffolk counties. “Every donation, no matter how small, helps our neighbors who are struggling to put food on their tables,” said Randi Shubin Dresner. “The National Association of Letter Carriers is pleased to partner with Island Harvest Food Bank and support its efforts in addressing the problem of hunger on Long Island,” said Walter Barton, president, NALC Branch 6000. “Our Letter Carriers often see the need for food assistance firsthand as part of their

Helping You Help Others By: Noelle Lambert
Noelle@SouthBaysNeighbor.com
May’s Charity of the Month is:
It all started with a good book... As I sat down with Lisa Gatti, CEO & Founder of Pal-O-Mine Equestrian, Inc., I had the privilege to learn about what her organization does to help those in need, as well as how it all began. PalO-Mine Equestrian is a comprehensive therapeutic equine program that uses horses to facilitate growth, learning and healing for individuals with disabilities and for other vulnerable populations. Lisa’s mother was a special education teacher and her father worked for a book publishing company. She was greatly influenced by both of their professions. Lisa grew up knowing she loved horses, but she really wanted to become a teacher and work with children in need. Her father would often send her books while she was away at college, and one day she received a book titled Palomino, by Danielle Steel. As she read through the pages, she became inspired by what was written about: a ranch that was formed to help people through equine therapy. From that point on, she was certain that was exactly what she wanted to do with her life. Through persistence, hard work and a passion to serve others, Lisa Gatti opened Pal-O-Mine in 1995 as a 501(C)(3) non-profit. Pal-O-Mine grew from having two programs, eight horses and 80 students per week to 11 programs, 25 horses and 400 students per week - and they continue to grow today! This organization sits on eight acres, with a 20-stall barn, handicapped accessible bathrooms, a new 100’ x 120’ indoor arena with state-ofthe-art footing and a rider hoisting system, and three outdoor riding arenas. They help an unbelievable amount of people, and their work is truly heartwarming. Individuals of all ages are welcome to take part in the programs they offer. They operate with five full-time employees, 35 independent contractors and 80 volunteers a week. Their riding instructors have experience with the following diagnoses: Autism Spectrum Disorders, Anxiety Disorders, Sensory Processing Disorder, Attention Deficit Disorder, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Neurological Disorders, Cerebral Palsy,
Traumatic Brain Injury, Multiple Sclerosis, Down Syndrome, Spina Bifida, Genetic Disorders and Emotional Disturbances. Every day, they have a different school drop off children at their location to benefit from their organization; they also offer group programs, individual lessons, corporate workshops and a program specifically designed for military members. If you are someone who faces any sort of disability or an emotional or vulnerable problem, please visit their website to learn more about how they can help you - and don’t hesitate to get help! Volunteers are the backbone of PalO-Mine, and there are many different ways to get involved. All volunteers must be at least 16 years of age, attend a volunteer orientation (orientations are held monthly), complete a training program and be available to volunteer a minimum of four hours per week. Some ways you may volunteer are: working directly with children and adults in lessons, working with therapy horses and performing barn chores, fundraising, and helping with property enhancement and landscaping. Pal-O-Mine has two major fundraising events that are coming up in June. One is their 16th annual Day at the Races, which will be on June 8th at the Belmont Race Track. This is held the day before the Belmont Stakes and is a wonderful outing, offering lunch, a premium open bar and door prizes. Their 10th annual Golf Outing, Par Fore the Horse, will be held on June 25th at Southward Ho Country Club in Bay Shore. This will include golfing, brunch, course refreshments, an open bar, a cocktail hour, dinner, gifts and prizes. Both of these events have sponsorship opportunities and are open to the public (tickets must be purchased). Lastly, Pal-O-Mine features a Wish List on their website, which lists items they use every day that you can donate! If you are interested in donating or becoming involved with this organization, please contact their Program Director, Carol Ann Guerriero, at 631.348.1389 or CGuerriero@Pal-O-Mine.org. Feel free to visit their website at www.Pal-O-Mine.org to learn more about this great non-profit.

am still in the process of realizing those aspects of the vast field of journalism which really inspire me. I am open to learn, eager to explore and always looking to improve upon those skills I originally honed all those decades ago. I believe this process is never complete; those who have worked in a particular field for twice as long as I have can surely attest to this fact. Who’s to say that anyone has to stay with one particular venture for a lifetime anyway? The world is constantly evolving, as are we; and the nature of most careers tends to necessitate a versatility that didn’t always exist prior. We all have untapped skills to be utilized, curiosities to indulge and talents to cultivate. So, here’s to 13, a number like any other, if you ask me. May it signify all the experience gained thus far, and the adventures yet to unfold.

it - even school, which often seems like an infinite chunk of time, is divided into segments of elementary, junior high and senior high. College, if it follows, is usually segmented into four-year intervals. Thirteen years… well that’s an entirely different level of commitment, is it not? And yet, even in the workforce, time tends to separate into stages. It begins with the formative years of finding your footing in a particular field, still unsure of what the job entails and what your responsibilities will include. Everything is new and exciting as you realize - hey, I’m really doing this! These are followed by the years of transition, when positions may be altered, new projects will come and go, and you begin to discover your particular strengths and weaknesses en route to finding your true passion. Thirteen years in, and I

I’ve known many people with an aversion to this perceived “unlucky” number, whether serving as a date of particular significance or - the more common superstition - when it should happen to fall on a Friday, of all days. Personally, I’ve taken special care to note any particularly negative occurrences on these infrequent juxtapositions of day and date, with thankfully few to report. Just another day, as they say. And with that, today - May 2nd - I commemorate the 13th anniversary of my start date here at South Bay’s Neighbor Newspapers. Over one dozen years ago, I began my journey into the world of journalism, straight from college. At the time, thirteen years would have certainly seemed like an eternity to spend in any one establishment. Think about

Community Collaboration During the course of several months, all six schools in the East Islip School District collaborated with the East Islip Teachers’ Association and East Islip SchoolBusiness Partnership in raising more than $2,000 to help the VetVan project. Student representatives Meagan Diaz, Grace Micali, Miranda Stockton and Sean Togher attended the March 27 meeting of the East Islip Community Chamber at the American Legion Hall to present the funds to the veterans of the East Islip American Legion and thank them for their service. The VetVan program was pioneered by the East
Islip High School Career Development Program and local business Lee’s Auto Body, who are donating a van to the East Islip American Legion to be utilized by any local veteran who needs a ride to the doctor, shopping, a parade. The monies donated from the school community for the VetVan project will be used to provide insurance coverage for the van. Streaming Steve’s Auto of East Islip offered to maintain the van with oil changes and general maintenance for its lifespan, after the veterans receive it. Through the school’s CORE work-based learning program, two East Islip High School
students, Adonees Akl and Timothy Carberry, were given an opportunity to spend six months working on reconditioning the van at Lee’s Auto Body guided by Lee’s owner and Community Chamber President Gary Teich. “While these two young men have learned many great skills in the automotive field, they are also learning the valuable skill of helping others,” said teacher Bridget Lopiccolo. “With the help of the community and school pulling together to support such a worthwhile cause, veterans will be able to get what they deserve – to be supported because of their selfless service.”

Earning His Badge
Joseph Robert Falcon, Islip Terrace, New York, successfully completed his Eagle Board of Review on December 13th, 2017, officially making him the 75th Eagle Scout of Troop 205 of Great River, East Islip, and Islip Terrace. Joseph’s Eagle Court of Honor will be held on Saturday, May 19th, starting at 11 a.m. at Timber Point Elementary School, 200 Timber Point Road, East Islip. Joseph is a member of Troop 205, sponsored by the Great River Fire Department, under the direction of Scoutmaster Mark Businski. On his “Road to Eagle,” Joseph served Troop 205 as Patrol Leader, Quartermaster, Webmaster, Order of the Arrow Representative, and Troop Guide – where he has assisted his younger Scouts in their Rank Advancements. Joseph was elected by his fellow Scouts in Troop 205 to be a member of the Order of the Arrow – the Boy Scout’s honorary camping organization. He has been a “Top 10” member of Troop 205, based on attendance and participation for the last three years and he completed the National Youth Leadership Training in 2017. Because of his outstanding commitment and the leadership skills he has obtained through Scouting; at this past election in January,
2018, Joseph became the first Junior Assistant Scoutmaster selected in the Troop in quite a few years. Joseph has had many unique Scouting experiences; including being a participant Scout at the 2017 National Boy Scout Jamboree at the Bechtel Summit Boy Scout High Adventure Base in West Virginia and a 2017 Crew Member at the BSA Florida Seabase – sailing for an entire week around the Florida Keys. Prior to this adventure, Joseph was Scuba Diver and First Aid/CPR/AED Certified. He was also a summer camper for one summer season at the Boy Scout Camp Wakpominee. Additional memorable Troop 205 trips and campouts for Joseph included Annapolis, MD; Mystic Seaport, CT; and the Montauk Fishing Trip and campout. To become an Eagle Scout, the Scout must earn 21 merit badges, of which 12 are specifically Eagle required, progress through six rank advancements – from Tenderfoot, Second Class, First Class, Star, Life, then Eagle, and also plan, develop, and implement a major service project for the community. Joseph has actually earned 28 merit badges. The Service Project that Joseph developed, planned, and implemented with the assistance of his fellow Troop members, friends,
family members, and community organizations was the Town of Islip “Kids Safety Day,” on September 23rd, 2017, where over 200 kids and adults participated. 570 volunteer hours were invested in Joseph’s Eagle Scout Project. As Joseph reflects on his Scouting experience, he recently said, “Ever since I joined Scouting, I have always wanted to become an Eagle Scout. I’ve wanted to see an Eagle Project that helped explain safety to younger kids. I have had an interest in keeping kids safe from the many hazards they may face in their everyday lives. I believe that with the way the world is today, safety is something that should be taught to all kids from an early age. This is the reason I wanted my Eagle Project to be a kid’s safety day. Joseph is currently a sophomore at East Islip High School, East Islip, New York, where he has been on the Honor Roll and was the Homecoming King/Representative for the sophomore Class, and has been in Student Government. Joseph has also been a member of the East Islip Historical Society and the East Islip PTSA. Volunteering has been a way of life for Joseph as he has been in the St. Mary’s Youth Ministry since the sixth grade, participated in the EJ Autism Walk/Run in 2016, and has worked on 12 Troop 205 Eagle Service Projects. Joseph has aspirations of being a college student at Farmingdale State College upon his high school graduation and to study weather and Meteorology to prepare himself for a Meteorologist career in the future. Joseph is the son of Debbie and Ray Falcon of Islip Terrace. He is the grandson of Bob and Florence Pesiri of Amityville.
ORGANIC FIELD TRIP - Organics Today Farm recently gave an Organic Field trip to local high school students. The topics covered were: Composting, Organic Growing, Rain Water Collection, Solar Power Honey Bees and more.
Girl Scout Support
Legislator Steven J. Flotteron came out to support East Islip Girl Scout Troop 2562 who featured one of the many hand on nature stations at this year’s 9th annual EcoCarnival hosted by Seatuck in Islip.
This is one of the premier Earth Day celebrations on Long Island. The event was created as part of the grand opening of the Suffolk County Environmental Center. Since then, it has become a favorite spring event in recognition
of Earth Day, drawing thousands each year. The Eco-Carnival features a series of handson nature stations, natureinspired arts-n-crafts, game and booths, as well as music, food and ice cream.
PAYING TRIBUTE - Vietnam Era and Vietnam Veterans met with Islip Town Councilman John C. Cochrane, Jr. recently at the American Legion Rusty Bohm Post 411 in Islip. The Councilman and Navy veteran paid tribute to the brave men for their service to their country. “It’s a privilege to honor these brave men for their service. The recognition is long overdue,” said Councilman Cochrane, Jr.

As part of their yearlong substance abuse awareness campaign, East Islip High School’s Students Against Destructive Decisions Club and adviser Bridget Lopiccolo staged their 15th annual Ghost-Out Day on March 23rd. A gong rang on the loudspeakers every 20 minutes throughout the school day, signaling the entrance of a student dressed as the Grim Reaper into a classroom. As Lopiccolo read aloud from real-life tragic police calls of teens being killed due to drugs or alcohol, the Reaper stalked the rooms and selected someone to
“strike,” who was then asked to wear a special black T-shirt and remain silent for the rest of the day to signify that a life has been impaired or lost due to a destructive decision. “This is one of the most important things SADD does,” said senior Hallie McCarthy. “I think it’s important for teens to know how someone’s life and the people around them can be affected by destructive decisions. It is haunting to hear that gong ring throughout the school day knowing what it represents and the message it is sending.” “For the past 15 years
as the SADD adviser, it has been my grim task to hold this day each year,’ said Lopiccolo. “I know it is a difficult day for many, but it is extremely important that students know that with each decision they make, there is a consequence.” This year, Lopiccolo added a new element, asking students in each classroom she visited if they knew someone who had died due to alcohol or drugs. “So many students raised their hands,” Lopiccolo said. “What a scary reality.”

Scholarships Awarded Teachers Federal Credit Union (TFCU), one of the country’s largest credit unions, awarded two $5,000 Nicholas Maletta Memorial Scholarships to SUNY Old Westbury students Jack Benjamin and Magdalena Zielinska. The educational scholarship reflects TFCU’s ongoing efforts to provide support and encouragement to local students within the
communities it serves. Magdalena Zielinska, a junior, is an accounting major. She is a graduate of Lindenhurst High School and lives in Lindenhurst. TFCU also awarded the Nicholas Maletta Memorial Scholarship to Magdalena in 2016 when she was a sophomore at SUNY Old Westbury. Jack Benjamin, a junior, is also majoring
in accounting. He is a graduate of Upper Room Christian School in Dix Hills and lives in Deer Park. Nicholas Maletta, for whom this scholarship is named, began serving on TFCU’s Board of Directors in 1983. In 1991 he was elected Vice Chairman, a position he held until his passing in 2012. In recognition of
his 29 years of selfless volunteer work, the $5,000 Nicholas Maletta Memorial Scholarship Award was established for students who have graduated from a Long Island high school and who are enrolled in SUNY Old Westbury’s School of Business. “The recipients of the two TFCU Nicholas Maletta Memorial Scholarship awards are on the road to
achieving their educational goals. A strong academic foundation is critical for long-term career success. At TFCU, we are committed to recognizing academic excellence and supporting outstanding students like Magdalena and Jack,” said Robert G. Allen, CEO/ President of TFCU. SUNY Old Westbury students applying for the Nicholas Maletta Memorial
Scholarship must be enrolled in a degree program of the School of Business and meet other criteria. Applicants must submit an original essay of a minimum of 500 words, on the following: Describe the most challenging obstacle you have faced, what you did to overcome it, and what you have learned from the experience.

Wing Walks in Support Following a week’s worth of autism awareness activities, blue-clad students at Islip’s Wing Elementary School celebrated on April 13th by holding puzzle pieces
as they strolled on a supportive schoolwide autism walk around the grounds. “Autism is something close to our hearts here at Wing, and it is important
for us to embrace the themes of acceptance and appreciation,” said Principal Christopher Smalley.
KEEPING ISLIP CLEAN - Legislator Tom Cilmi stopped by to offer a few words of encouragement and thanks to fifth grade students from St. Mary School in East Islip for participating in an Earth Day clean-up. Supplies were provided by Keep Islip Clean.

Musical Mystery Persevering despite the opening night’s rescheduling due to snow, East Islip High School’s annual musical, “The Mystery of Edwin Drood,” was presented on March 23rd, 24th and 25th. Based on Charles Dickens’ unfinished novel of the same name, “Drood” is a comedic, interactive murder mystery that allows the audience to take part in the action as detectives. Dickens died in 1870 before he was able to reveal the culprit, but the award-winning 1985 Rupert Holmes adaptation
solves the predicament by asking the audience to vote on the identity of the murderer and other characters. The East Islip cast included Kyle WestgateAddessi (The Chairman), Andrew Timmins (John Jasper), Karina Gallagher (Alice Nutting/Edwin Drood), Victoria Tiernan (Rosa Bud), Sara Rapuzzi (Helena Landless), Stone Locke (Neville Landless), Katelyn Spina (Princess Puffer), Jake Acocella (Mr. Crisparkle), Sebestian Ovalle (Durdles), Michael Silva (Bazzard) and Kieran
Tohill (Deputy). “Our high school students performed amazingly,” said Dr. Robert J. Wottawa II, the district’s director of art, ENL, music and world languages. “From vocal work to the pit orchestra to the stage crew and the choreography, each element was wonderfully executed. It is due to the dedication of our teachers to our students’ success that we could incorporate audience participation to provide three different endings that replicated professionalism.”

Consulate Meeting The Italian Consulate recently held a meeting with school districts who implement Italian world language or dual language programs, bringing in representatives from Long Island, New York City, New Jersey and Yonkers. Among them were Priscilla Zarate, the Islip School District’s ENL and world language K-12 coordinator, and Islip High School language teachers Linda
Gallelli and Giuseppa Prainito, who met with different organizations that collaborate with the Italian consulate to provide support and resources to programs. “We also learned about several initiatives through the Italian American Committee of Education,” said Zarate, “including cultural trips and tours, professional development for teachers, internships for
high school students and travel abroad programs. Currently, the Italian Consulate is offering to pay AP online testing for any students who are eligible to take it and who may be taking other AP exams. As a result of this opportunity, we have an estimated 11 students from our world language Italian program who are interested in taking this AP exam.”

Photo courtesy of: Islip School District This class introduces The Islip School District continued its partnership with the Suffolk County Police Department on April 19th, with the department’s Canine Narcotics Unit conducting a sweep of student lockers at Islip High School. This is the second year that the district and the SCPD have worked together to bring the Canine Unit to the high school.
While students and staff were in their classrooms, two highly trained dogs and their handlers moved throughout the hallways and empty locker rooms. These dogs are able to detect illegal, unlawful or unauthorized substances, but after a thorough review of the building, the dogs and their handlers reported no “hits” for these kinds of materials.
“Principal Michael Mosca and I are grateful to Lt. Tom Zagajeski, the commanding officer of the 3rd Precinct Crime Section, and his officers, for their support and partnership,” said Superintendent of Schools Susan Schnebel. “The district will continue to remain vigilant at all times to prevent illegal drugs from entering our schools.”
