The Sixth Annual Outreach/John Brower, Jr. Foundation 5K Walk to raise funds and awareness about the opioid crisis on Long Island will be held Saturday, September 11th, beginning at 9 a.m. at Jones Beach Field 1. The event, which has raised more than $180,000 since its inception, is held annually to honor the memory of John Brower, Jr., who died in 2014 of an opioid overdose at age 25. Proceeds from the
walk support Outreach, the Queens and Long Islandbased organization dedicated to helping teens and adults fight drug and alcohol addiction. John and Jody Brower, the parents of John Brower, Jr., formed the foundation in 2015 to raise awareness of drug abuse, and to help raise funds to end the opioid epidemic on Long Island. After being introduced to Outreach shortly after their
son’s passing, the Browers were impressed by the organization’s dedication to helping those struggling with addiction. They decided to target the foundation’s fundraising efforts to support life-saving programs at Outreach and other Long Island organizations. John Venza, vice president for adolescent and residential services at Outreach, said, “We are especially excited for the John Brower, Jr., 5K

Honor America on Patriot Day September 11, 2001, was a tragic day in American history. On that day, nearly 3,000 innocent lives were lost due to the terrorist attacks in New York City and Washington, D.C. as well as in rural Pennsylvania, where another plane en route for more destruction crash-landed. The indelible images of the World Trade Center collapsing in flames with crowds running for safety, as well as the ensuing visions of heroes and citizens working together, have created a lasting impression. While buildings have been repaired and new sites erected in the wake of the attacks, there are many ways to continue to honor the fallen. Patriot Day, which takes place each year on September 11 to honor those who lost their lives in the 9-11 attacks, is one such example. The following are a handful of ways that people can honor 9-11 victims and their families. • Celebrate local heroes by visiting or making donations of food or supplies to local firehouses and police stations. 9:03 a.m., 9:37 a.m., 9:59 a.m., 10:03 • Commemorate the events of 9-11 by a.m., and 10:28 a.m. observing moments of silence at key times throughout the day: 8:46 a.m, • Engage in service projects that can
do at least one good deed in honor of those who died on 9-11. • Make a trip to New York City and visit the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. • If you display a flag at your home or business, be sure to place it at half staff from sunrise to sunset to mourn the lives lost. • Share stories of the heroism and bravery of first responders with young children who may not have been alive in 2001. • Unite the country by promoting acceptance of and kindness to all people, regardless of religious or political beliefs. • Attend a special service commemorating 9-11 at houses of worship. • Visit memorials honoring the fallen in various communities in and around your home. help your community, including its This Patriot Day, there are many underserved individuals, like veterans. National Day of Service, which is the ways individuals can honor those who same day as Patriot Day, asks people to lost their lives on 9-11.

How To Honor First Responders This fall marks the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The attacks on September 11, 2001 remain the deadliest terror attacks in world history, claiming more than 2,900 lives and causing countless injuries and long-term health problems for tens of thousands of civilians and first responders. The 20th anniversary of 9/11 will no doubt evoke responses that span the emotional spectrum. Sadness may dominate such responses, but the anniversary of 9/11 also is a great time to reflect on the efforts of first responders. First responders played a vital role on 9/11, and many lost their lives and/or suffered long-term health consequences resulting from their selfless efforts to save innocent victims of the attacks. In the two decades since the 9/11 attacks, first responders have continued to make countless sacrifices to ensure their communities are safe and peaceful places to call home. The 20th anniversary of 9/11 is a great time to recognize the efforts of first responders and honor them for all they do.
Administration, 54 percent of active firefighting personnel are volunteers. Many of those volunteer firefighters work for underfunded departments that are in need of financial support. Donating to such departments is a great way to show first responders how much their efforts are appreciated. Donations may be used to purchase new equipment, upgrade existing facilities, provide vital training, and/or improve response times, the latter of which can increase the likelihood that firefighters make it through calls safe and sound.

• Commit to supporting first responders year-round. The 20th anniversary of 9/11 will call attention to the efforts of first responders on that day 20 years ago as well as the countless times since then that these brave men and women have served their communities. But first responders deserve vocal, year-round support. Make a concerted effort to thank policemen, firefighters, EMTs, nurses, and doctors in your community whenever you interact with them, and urge others to follow suit. First responders play a vital role in communities across the globe. The 20th anniversary of 9/11 can serve as a catalyst for communities to express their support for first responders.
A Timber Point Tradition Raises $30K For St. Jude Hospital
This past spring, students at East Islip’s Timber Point Elementary School proudly participated in the school’s annual Math-a-Thon for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital. Kindergartners, first graders and second graders all put their math skills to work to help
the children at St. Jude, raising $30,801, Timber Point’s highest total so far. The school has been supporting the hospital by holding the Math-a-Thon every year since 2003, raising $196,422 to date. “This is a tradition we are extremely proud
of and look forward to continuing each year,” said teachers and Math-a-Thon coordinators Michelle Kilkelly and Carolyn McGee. “We are so proud of our students and thank the families for their hard work and support of this wonderful cause.”

• Back legislation to support wounded first responders. Many first responders suffer significant mental and physical injuries while on the job. Various nonprofit organizations help wounded first responders who may need to make modifications to their homes or purchase costly equipment to get through their daily lives. But nonprofit organizations cannot go it alone in support of wounded first responders. Citizens can do their part by promoting and voting for local, state and national legislation that makes it easy for wounded first responders to get the help • Donate to local fire departments. they need, when they need it. In addition According to the U.S. Fire to urging local politicians to support
such legislation, private citizens can utilize social media to promote proposals and other efforts to support wounded first responders. Many 9/11 first responders are still fighting for government-backed support to treat injuries suffered 20 years ago, and a vocal citizenry can be a strong asset in their fight and the fight of countless others in need of help.

Did You Know? Each September 11, communities across the United States commemorate the lives lost during the 2001 terrorist attacks that took place on American soil. On September 11, 2001, four commercial airplanes were hijacked and sent to various targets in the United States. Two planes crashed into the towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, one plane crashed into the U.S. Pentagon Building near Washington, D.C., and a fourth plane was intercepted from the hijackers and crash-landed in rural Pennsylvania. In the immediate aftermath of the attacks, President George W. Bush declared Friday, September 14, 2001 as a National Day of Prayer and Remembrance for the Victims of the terrorist attacks. But many people felt there should be an annual event dedicated to preserving the memory of the victims and the heroism of the first responders. A bill to make September 11 a national day of mourning was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives on October 25, 2001. The bill passed the Senate unanimously. On September 11, 2002, the country recognized the first Patriot Day. On this day, the U.S. flag is flown at half-mast. In addition, a moment of silence beginning at 8:46 a.m. is observed to correspond with the attacks. While not a federal holiday — schools and businesses remain open — memorial ceremonies are held for the 2,977 victims, including an annual reading of names of the people who lost their lives.

The Flight 93 National Memorial At 10:03 a.m. on September 11, 2001, the last of four planes that were hijacked earlier that morning crashed into a field near the town of Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The people behind the 9/11 attacks later claimed the hijackers who commandeered the plane intended to crash it into the U.S. Capitol Building in Washington, D.C., but passengers and crew stormed the cockpit, prompting the hijackers to crash the plane into the field, which is less than 20 minutes’ flying time to Washington, D.C. The efforts of passengers and crew onboard Flight 93 were nothing short of heroic. Though everyone aboard the flight perished in the crash, the attack on the U.S. Capitol was thwarted, saving untold number of lives. All passengers and crew on board Flight 93 were awarded a Congressional Gold Medal on September 11, 2014. The Flight 93 National Memorial is located in Stonycreek Township in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, roughly two miles north of Shanksville. The memorial was opened to family members of the victims on September 10, 2015, and is now open to the public seven days a week, 365 days a year from sunrise to sunset, though visitors
are urged to contact the Memorial in advance due to potential restrictions or closures related to the COVID-19 pandemic. In September 2005, the Flight 93 Advisory Commission, which included family members of the victims as well as design and art professionals and
community and national leaders, chose a design proposal submitted by Paul Murdoch Architects and Nelson Byrd Woltz Architects from among 1,100 entries. The Flight 93 National Memorial includes the Tower of Voices, a 93-foottall musical instrument that holds 40
wind chimes, one to represent each of the 40 passengers and crew members who perished in the crash. The tower is located on an oval concrete plaza that includes two curved concrete benches facing the opening of the tower. The tower is surrounded by concentric rings of white pines and deciduous plantings. A live webcam of the Tower of Voices can be viewed at https://www. flight93friends.org/plan-your-visit/ webcams. Visitors to the Flight 93 National Memorial also can visit the Memorial Plaza. The Memorial Plaza features the Wall of Names, which is made up of 40 white polished marble stones inscribed with the names of the passengers and crew who were aboard Flight 93 on 9/11. The Memorial Plaza extends onequarter mile alongside the area where Flight 93 crashed. Visitors can walk along the Memorial Plaza and view the impact site, including a grove of eastern hemlock trees that were damaged by the crash. A gap in the tree line is still visible and serves as a lasting “scar” of the crash. More information about the Flight 93 National Memorial is available at https://www.nps.gov/flni/planyourvisit/ index.htm.
Islip Rising The first day of interscholastic athletic practices commenced at sunrise on Islip High School’s fields, track and courts as the Buccaneers grabbed the first opportunity on Aug. 23 to spring forward with the fall athletic season. Under a rainbow sky, the
athletes gathered on the football field as Principal Ron LaRochester led participants in the Pledge of Allegiance and senior Isabella Green sang the national anthem. The sunrise evoked the meaning of a new day and a new beginning, especially after the difficulties
experienced by athletes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Dubbed by Dr. O’Hara as #IslipRising, this special return to the athletic season symbolized a sense of normalcy by student-athletes who have had to play under strict protocols and shortened seasons.
“While other district athletes were still in bed, the Buccaneers have just completed their first practice of the athletic season,” Dr. O’Hara said. “The sunrise symbolizes our getting back to normal. But in Islip, we’re not getting back to normal. We’re springing forward.”
Head football coach Jamie Lynch remarked that the sunrise practice was an excellent idea. He said, “The athletes have been through so much, and to see them with smiles on their faces and with a lot of energy for the fall season, it could not have been a better event.”
He continued, “We’re all pumped up and ready to go for 2021 #IslipRising.” High school athlete Jamison Seeger said #IslipRising was a great event. “It really brought everyone together to kick off the new year in the right way.”
GOLF TEAM JOINED PRACTICE - The Islip High School golf team was one of #ISLIPRISING - Islip Superintendent of Schools Dr. Dennis O’Hara developed many teams that joined practice during the district’s inaugural #IslipRising. Photo #IslipRising as a way for student-athletes to spring forward to a more normal athletic courtesy of the Islip School District season this fall. Photo courtesy of the Islip School District

The 9/11 Memorial Among the more indelible images to emerge on September 11, 2001 was the sight of two planes crashing into the North and South Towers of the World Trade Center. Still photos and video footage of those planes valid off premium tickets only. flying into the Twin Towers were the first images of the attacks many Americans saw, and no one who watched events unfold that morning will ever forget those images. Though both the North and South Towers fell on that day, today the site where each tower once stood is a serene retreat in the bustling lower Manhattan neighborhood that was shaken to its core on the day of the attacks. The 9/11 Memorial was designed by architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker. The 9/11 Memorial and Museum notes that Arad and Walker’s proposal was chosen in a design competition that featured 5,201 submissions from 63 countries. The 9/11 Memorial is located on the western side of the formal World Trade Center where the Twin Towers once stood. Two enormous reflecting pools are part of the Memorial Plaza, which is where the North and South Towers once stood. The pools feature the two largest man-made waterfalls in North America. Around the edges of the pools, the names of people who were killed in the 9/11 attacks in New York, the Pentagon, on Flight 93, and in the 1993 bombing at the World Trade Center are etched in bronze. In recognition of the crash sites, 400 swamp white oak trees were selected from nurseries located in New York, Pennsylvania and near Washington, D.C. These trees are located throughout the Memorial Plaza, providing a peaceful respite separate from the surrounding city. The Memorial Plaza also includes one Callery pear tree. That tree was discovered at Ground Zero weeks after the attacks and it was severely damaged. The tree, now known as the Survivor Tree, was nursed back to health by members of the New York City Parks and Recreation Department and returned to the World Trade Center site in 2010, where it still stands as an enduring symbol of resilience and perseverance. The 9/11 Memorial is free and open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. More information about the 9/11 Memorial and the 9/11 Memorial and Museum can be found at www.911memorial.org.

Leave Your Troubles Outside! TH The Argyle Theatre Presents The Hit Broadway Musical Cabaret
AUG 27 @ 7:30
The Argyle Theatre (Mark and Dylan Perlman, Managing Partners; Evan Pappas, Artistic Director), presents the hit Broadway musical Cabaret with music by John Kander, lyrics by Fred Ebb, and book by Joe Masteroff, based on the play by John Van Druten and stories by Christopher Isherwood. Performances begin Friday, September 17th for a limited engagement through Sunday afternoon, October 24th at The Argyle Theatre (34 West Main Street, Babylon, Long Island). Cabaret is presented through special arrangement with Concord Theatricals. Directed by Evan Pappas, with choreography by Sara Brians and music direction by Jonathan Brenner, the cast will feature Dana Costello as Sally Bowles, Jon Peterson as The Emcee, and Andy Tighe as Cliff Bradshaw, with Fred Frabotta as Herr Schultz, Brian Owen as Ernst Ludwig, Suzanne Grodner as Fräulein Schneider, and Lilly Tobin as Fräulein Kost, as well as Alexis Semevolos and Conor Stepnowski. Mark and Dylan Perlman, Argyle Managing Partners, shared “We are thrilled to reopen The Argyle’s theatrical season and close out The Argyle’s second season with the multiple Tony award winning classic Cabaret.” They went on to say, “Come join us at the Kit Kat Club in Berlin in 1931 where patrons search for escape while the seeds of intolerance are fomenting. Be captivated in a time and place where nothing is certain except for one’s dreams.” In a Berlin nightclub, as the 1920’s draws to a close, a garish Master of Ceremonies welcomes the audience and assures them they will forget all their troubles at the Cabaret. With the Emcee’s bawdy songs as wry commentary, Cabaret explores the dark, heady, and tumultuous life of Berlin’s natives and expatriates as Germany slowly yields to the emerging Third Reich. Cliff Bradsaw, a young American writer newly arrived in Berlin, is immediately taken by English singer Sally Bowles. Meanwhile, Fräulein Schneider, proprietor of Cliff and Sally’s boarding house, tentatively begins a romance with Herr Schultz, a mild-mannered fruit seller who happens to be Jewish. First presented in 1966, the ground-breaking musical Cabaret won an impressive 8 Tony Awards, including Best Musical, which then culminated into a smashing Oscar Winning film in 1972 winning 8 Oscars. This classic Kander and Ebb score is entertaining, thought- provoking and Broadway musical theatre at its best. “Cabaret still remains one of the greatest musicals,” exclaimed director Evan Pappas. “The craftsmanship and the storytelling by Kander, Ebb, and Masteroff is masterful!” He ended with, “We have just the cast and creative team to present it.” Cabaret will play the following performance schedule: Thursday through Saturday evenings at 7:30 p.m., Saturday afternoons at 2:30 p.m. and Sunday afternoons at 2:00 p.m. with Special Added Performances on Wednesday evening, October 20 at 7:30 p.m. and Thursday October 21, at 2:00 pm.

PUZZLE ANSWERS:
September The Pentagon Memorial 18-19
At 9:37 a.m. on September 11, 2001, five hijackers crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia. All 53 passengers and six crew members perished in the crash, and an additional 125 military and civilian personnel on the ground were killed in the fire caused by the crash. The hijacking of Flight 77 was part of the broader attack on 9/11, which remains the deadliest terrorist attack in world history. The Pentagon Memorial was created to honor the 184 people whose lives were lost at the Pentagon on 9/11, as well as their families and all those who sacrifice to protect and preserve the freedom of Americans. The design of the Pentagon Memorial was developed by architects Julie Beckman and Keith Kaseman. Their
design was chosen from 1,100 submissions. The Pentagon Memorial sits on two acres of land just outside where Flight 77 struck the building. The memorial includes 184 benches that are dedicated to each of the victims. The benches are organized in a timeline of their ages, stretching from the youngest victim, 3-yearDana Falkenberg, to the oldest, 71-year-old John Yamnicky. Each bench is engraved with a victim’s name and arches over a shallow reflecting pool of water, lit from below. The benches for the passengers who were aboard the plane at the time of the crash are positioned so visitors will face the sky when reading the victim’s name. The benches dedicated to the victims who were inside the building are positioned so their names and the Pentagon are in the
same view. A curved wall known as the Age Wall also is a significant part of the memorial. The wall increases in height from 3 inches to 71 inches to represent the ages of the victims. Eighty-five paperbark maple trees were clustered throughout the memorial, and these trees feature foliage that changes to orange and red each fall. The trees will eventually grow to 30 feet, providing a canopy of shade over the memorial. The Pentagon Memorial is free and open seven days a week year-round, though visitors are urged to contact the Memorial in advance due to potential restrictions or closures related to the COVID-19 pandemic. More information about the Memorial is available at https://washington. org/find-dc-listings/ national-911-pentagonmemorial.

The program commenced with the singing of the national anthem by senior Isabella Green. Assistant Principal Lisa Ward then welcomed the students and introduced the administration and key faculty. Superintendent of Schools Dr. Dennis O’Hara told the students that he feels blessed to be working
in the Islip School District. He also mentioned that a growth mindset is very important, as well as incorporating the word “yet” while trying to obtain goals. “Keep thinking about your best effort,” Dr. O’Hara said. Principal Jon LaRochester told the students this is an important year for the school, its 100th anniversary, so the Class of 2025 is an important class. “This is a new journey, a new beginning,” Mr. LaRochester said. “There
will be a lot of obstacles to navigate, but we will do it together.” The students then separated into groups led by the Buccaneer University Mentors, where they received a tour of the high school and were briefed on topics including various technology, participation in clubs and sports, the student portal and how to follow on social media. At the end of the program, the freshmen were invited to a delicious barbeque in the courtyard.
