Residents who love visiting the beach and want to help protect the shoreline can join Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and members of the Town Board at the Towns’ annual Dune Day, scheduled for Saturday, March 27th at TOBAY Beach. The event begins at 10 a.m. by the dunes at TOBAY. Supervisor Saladino stated, “The Dune Stabilization Project brings together residents

of all ages in an effort to protect and preserve our beautiful shoreline and environment by planting stalks of dune grass. This year, our event takes a social-distanced approach as volunteers must wear a mask and remain socially distant for the duration of the event.” The Dune Stabilization Project helps preserve our beach and barrier island for future generations, Volunteers work alongside Town officials and crews,

The Dangers Of Dented Cans

Dented cans have long been a source of confusion and concern for shoppers. They may be discounted and seem like a good deal, but some of those dented cans may not be safe to eat. Damaged cans may be harboring food that contains botulism and other toxins. According to the United States Department of Agriculture Food Safety and Inspection Services, if a can of food has a small dent but is otherwise in good shape, the food should be safe to eat. However, deeply dented cans should be discarded. Dented cans of food that are safe will have smooth dents or dents that are not on the seams of the can. A person should avoid sharp dents, dents in the seam and dents where the seam and the can meet. In addition, if the can is bulging or swollen, it should be avoided. Dents in a seam can let in air and bacteria. Deep dents may have left pinholes, again where bacteria can enter.

This Virtual One-Room Schoolhouse Experience Makes a Huge Impact on Long Island & Beyond The Farmingville Historical Society was formed in 1992 to preserve and restore the Bald Hills OneRoom Schoolhouse. The Bald Hills Schoolhouse is a one-room Greek Revival Schoolhouse built in 1850. It stands on its original foundation on Horseblock Road in Farmingville and served the Farmingville community until 1929. After 84 years of being closed, the Schoolhouse was re-opened in November 2013 to educate the community through student field trips, history speaker presentations, historic events and now through The Virtual One-Room Schoolhouse.

To access the survey link, young adults can go to the following link http://s. alchemer.com/s3/youngadult-substance-misusesurvey or access the QR code below with your mobile devise. The PACT project is funded through the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration Center for Substance Abuse Prevention (SAMHSACSAP) to prevent the onset and reduce the progression of substance use and its related problems among persons aged 9-20. This initiative collaborates with state and federally funded community coalitions including the Alcohol & Drug Abuse Prevention Team (ADAPT) at Farmingdale State College, Levittown Community Action Coalition (LCAC) and the Massapequa Takes

Action Coalition (MTAC). Partners include the Farmingdale, Island Trees, Levittown, Massapequa and Plainedge Public School Districts as well as the Long Island Prevention Resource Center, Nassau County Police Department, New York National Guard Counterdrug Task Force, and St. Joseph’s Hospital. Working together, we seek to understand patterns of substance use to better address this challenge through targeted prevention, education and outreach. If you have any questions regarding the survey or you would like to be a part of this effort, contact our PACT team at pact@yesccc. org or (516) 799-3203 x230.

Nassau County residents know all too well about the dangers of substance use as the opioid epidemic continues to destroy families and lives throughout our neighborhoods. Young adults, aged 18-25, are particularly affected as they often know first-hand, the devastation and sorrow of losing family, friends and peers to overdose and addiction. YES Community Counseling Center’s Partnering in Action Change for Tomorrow (PACT) Project asks young adults (ages 18-25) to participate in a voluntary and anonymous survey about their knowledge, attitudes and behaviors. Young adult participation will further PACT’s efforts to improve solutions to prevent and reduce substance use in our communities. Participation is voluntary. Survey results are anonymous and confidential. Individual data is never reported; only aggregate data is used to

T h e Twilight Wish Foundation is a 501(c) (3) non-profit organization whose mission is to honor and enrich the lives of seniors through intergenerational Twilight Wish celebrations. Since the organization’s founding in 2003, their goal has been to make the world a nicer place to age, one Twilight Wish at a time. When a Twilight Wish is granted, a senior is recognized for all that they have done throughout their lives and is shown that they are appreciated and valued. To date, the Twilight Wish Foundation has granted over 3,700 wishes throughout our country and multiple wishes have being granted on Long Island recently! These wishes have ranged from simple needs wishes, such as shaving razors for nursing home veterans, to living life to the fullest wishes, such as going cross country in a tractor trailer truck. Recently, many Long Island residents had their wishes come true. Each week for the remaining weeks this month, I will feature wishes that were granted right here on Long Island, starting with Kathy W. Kathy is a 74 year old resident of Middle Island who was nominated by one of her friends. She has trouble hearing, but continues to be an active participant in the Catholic Daughters of America and the first one to jump in and help out, according to her nominator. She is also very active in the parish senior club and pre-COVID she attended all the functions. Kathy needed hearing aids, but could not afford them on her fixed income. However, after being nominated and chosen, The Twilight Wish Foundation was able to grant her wish of receiving hearing aids! This was a life changing experince for all involved.

Many seniors experience social isolation, which can lead to undesirable conditions. Granting a Twilight Wish can help change that! You can qualify for a Twilight Wish if you are at least 65 years old, are a legal U.S. citizen, demonstrate financial need, provide a history of giving back to others and possess the cognitive, emotional and physical ability to experience the wish. Please note, when going to grant a wish, this foundation takes all the necessary safety precautions. If you would like to get involved with The Twilight Wish Foundation, you can! You can become a Twilight Wish Sponsor, which benefits your business and the Foundation’s mission. There are many levels. For more information, contact Cass Forkin at 212.534.0402. Additionally, if you are interested in volunteering with their Long Island Chapter, you can fill out the Chapter Volunteer Application at www.twilightwish.org/volunteeropportunities/ and someone will get in contact with you regarding how you can do so.

Councilman Tom Hand announced today that the Town of Oyster Bay will host a Food & Supply Drive in partnership with LI Cares. The drive will take place from March 15th to April 15th with a focus on collecting for the family members most vulnerable to hunger, residents’ pets. Long Island Cares formed Baxter’s Pet Pantry

in 2009 to assist in feeding dogs, cats, ferrets, rabbits, caged pets, fish, reptiles and all others considered family members. “Pets truly are members of our family,” said Councilman Hand. “Pet food and supply donations will help furry friends in need, which in turn keeps pets at home with their loved ones. The

Town of Oyster Bay is proud to partner with LI Cares to collect generous donations for this worthwhile cause.” The creation of Baxter’s Pet Pantry by Long Island Cares has helped distribute over one million pounds of pet food, all of which has been donated through pet food drives like this one and corporate

donations. “Unfortunately many beloved pets are placed into shelters or given away because families cannot afford the necessary food and supplies,” added Councilman Hand. “When struggling families have to make choices to heat their homes, buy medication or feed their own families, pets can become an

afterthought. Pet food drives like this one can be a real lifesaver for both pets and their families.” Those interested in supporting the pet food drive can place donated items in drop off boxes located in the following Town of Oyster Bay locations: Town Hall North, 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay Town Hall South,

977 Hicksville Road, Massapequa Town of Oyster Bay Ice Skating Center, 1001 Stewart Avenue, Bethpage Regular business hours for the locations are 9:00 a.m. to 4:45 p.m. For more information, visit www.licares.org or call Esther Alter in the Town’s Public Information Office at (516) 624-6380.

Town Launches Healthcare Hero Recognition Program Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino and members of the Town Board invite residents to help recognize Healthcare Heroes by writing Thank You letters that will be distributed during National Public Health Week, which runs from April 5th to April 11th. During National Public Health Week, thousands of Thank You letters will be distributed from residents to frontline healthcare workers who, over the past

year, have bravely battled the COVID-19 pandemic at hospitals, healthcare centers, and nursing homes. “This past year has been one of the toughest ones as the war against the global coronavirus pandemic continues to rage on. No one group has seen the devastating effects of COVID-19 more than our frontline Healthcare Heroes, who have bravely battled day in and day out at our hospitals, healthcare

centers, and nursing homes, in an effort to help as many people as possible,” Supervisor Saladino said. “Together, we will let our courageous doctors, nurses, and healthcare heroes know that they and their sacrifices have not been forgotten – in the midst of the most challenging public health crisis of our lifetime. I invite all residents to participate in this program, and help let our healthcare heroes know what an incredible difference

they are making in so many lives.” To participate in this rewarding experience, residents are asked to either create Thank You cards or use the form found on www.oysterbaytown.com/ healthcarehero. Letters should be returned by Friday, March 19th, to ensure their proper distribution. Letters

may be mailed directly to Town Hall North, located at 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay, NY 11771 or dropped off weekdays from 9:00am to 4:45pm at the following locations: · Town Hall North, 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay · Town Hall South, 977 Hicksville Road, Massapequa · Ice Skating Center, 1001

Stewart Avenue, Bethpage · Hicksville Athletic Center, 167 S. Broadway, Hicksville · Department of Public Works, 150 Miller Place, Syosset For more information and additional details, please contact Esther Alter at (516) 624-6380 or ealter@ oysterbay-ny.gov.

Residents Invited To Submit Photos For Town Publications Oyster Bay Town Councilwoman Laura Maier invites residents to submit photos taken in the Town of Oyster Bay to be considered for use in Town publications. “Our residents recently received their 2021 Town calendar, which is filled with photos submitted throughout the year depicting people, places, community events and scenery throughout our Town,” said Councilwoman

Maier. “We accept photos for the calendar, as well as other Town publications, including our website and brochures.” Councilwoman Maier noted that photos should be taken within the confines of the Town of Oyster Bay. Digital submissions are preferred, but highquality photos may also be submitted. Emailed photos should be sent to photos@ oysterbay-ny.gov. Printed photos can be submitted

to the Town’s Public Information Office, 54 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay NY 11771. Residents should make sure their name, address, phone number and brief description of the photo are included with their submission. The photographer is responsible for the correct spelling of the names and subjects in the photos, as well as notifying subjects they may appear in a Town publication.

MUSEUM OF AMERICAN ARMOR - To mark the anniversary of the end of the deadly Tet Offensive during the Vietnam War, Bishop Barrington Goldson of Calvary Tabernacle of Hempstead offered prayers at the Museum of American Armor where he was joined by Nassau County Executive Laura Curran, former Congressman Peter King, Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino, Vietnam veterans and living historians. The 1968 Tet Offensive marked a strategic turning point in the Vietnam conflict for while the Communists lost tens of thousands of soldiers in a failed attempt to take and hold key centers across South Vietnam the attacks were a severe psychological blow to the American public. The end of the offensive saw the beginning of America’s eventual disengagement from the war.

Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino invites residents to be “Freezin’ for a Reason” at a polar plunge benefitting the Special Olympics New York on Saturday, March 13, 2021 at TOBAY Beach. The event, which will include an extensive list of new COVID-19 safety protocols, will feature pre-assigned time slots beginning at 9:30 a.m. “Many of our residents are used to seeing beautiful TOBAY Beach in the middle of the summer, but this event provides an enjoyable and charitable reason to begin the beach season early,” said Supervisor Joseph Saladino. “Participants will have an opportunity to prove their mettle and their compassion by wading into the chilly waters of TOBAY Beach to raise funds for the athletes of Special Olympics New York.” The safety of participants

is of the highest priority for both Special Olympics and the Town of Oyster Bay. This year’s plunge will include comprehensive safety measures that will comply with federal and state guidelines. Instead of large groups, each team will have a personalized polar plunge experience in a controlled safe environment. All spectators and volunteers will be required to wear masks and plungers will wear masks until plunge time. Signage and announcements will also serve as a reminder to maintain social distance and adhere to all safety protocols. All funds raised at the event support Special Olympics New York’s programs and promote awareness of people living with intellectual disabilities in New York. Proceeds will help to provide year-round sports training and competition in over 22 Olympic-style
