Is It Safe To Donate Blood During The Pandemic? Donating blood is a selfless act that saves lives. Blood donors may recognize the vital role they play in patient care, but many may wonder if it’s safe to donate blood during

the pandemic. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, it is safe for anyone who is well to donate blood. That even goes for people who are social distancing due

donor chairs at least six feet apart and encouraging donors to make donation appointments ahead of time. Appointments can ensure donors are not spending more time at the donation

center than is absolutely necessary, reducing the likelihood that they have contact with someone who may have COVID-19 but not know it. The Red Cross notes it has instituted

Super Saturday

Consumers may readily recognize Black Friday and Cyber Monday in the holiday shopping lexicon. But what about Super Saturday? Super Saturday, sometimes called “Panic Saturday,” refers to the final Saturday before Christmas. This can be a big day for retailers. Super Saturday deals tend to target last-minute shoppers who wait until the very end to make the majority of their purchases or pick up those final gifts. Super Saturday 2020 occurs on Saturday, December 19, 2020.

Christmas Day is the most popular day to get engaged. According to the 2020 WeddingWire Newlywed Report, more couples who were married in 2019 got engaged on Christmas Day than any other day during the year. Christmas Eve was the second most popular day to pop the question, while the Sunday before Christmas Eve came in fourth (New Year’s Day rounded out the top three). The appeal of Christmastime proposals helped make December the most popular month to get engaged, as more than 19 percent of couples who married in 2019 got engaged in the final month of the year. July proved the second most popular month to pop the question, as 9 percent of couples who wed in 2019 reported getting engaged in July.

The Most Popular Day To Get Engaged

Olivia Zhang named Semper Fidelis All-American

ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 16, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

East Islip High School senior and Olivia Zhang was recently named a Semper Fidelis All-American for 2020. She was recognized with an award presentation at the high school on Nov. 20, attended by Staff Sgt. Christopher Rivera, a Semper Fidelis program representative, as well as district administrators and Zhang’s adviser and Semper Fidelis mentor Lisa Rapiejko. Zhang was one of less than 100 student-athletes

nationwide chosen from 5,600 applicants by the U.S. Marine Corps as an All-American based on exceptional moral character and academic performance in addition to noteworthy athletic abilities. In a typical year, Semper Fidelis AllAmericans and a mentor of their choice would have been honored this past summer at the Battles Won Academy experience in Washington, DC, but the event was canceled due to

the COVID-19 pandemic. Serving as Student Council President, Zhang is also a member of her school’s Math Honor Society, Foreign Language Honor Society, Tri-M Music Honor Society, Interact Club, Academic Team and tennis and track teams. She also holds the rank of petty officer second class in the U.S. Naval Sea Cadet Corps and was chosen to be a facilitator for the Rotary Club’s Youth Leadership program.

Preservation Long Island Announces Call for 2021 Endangered Historic Places Nominations

Preservation Long Island, a regional preservation advocacy nonprofit, is pleased to announce a call for nominations for the 2021 Endangered Historic Places Program (EHPP). Nominations are open to the public and can be submitted digitally through the EHPP 2021 portal on Preservation Long Island’s website. All nominations must be received by Friday, December 18, 2020. Do you know of an endangered historic place in your Long Island community? Preservation Long Island’s Endangered Historic Places Program (EHPP) offers Long Islanders an opportunity to advocate for preservation priorities in their communities while learning how to use tools like landmark designation, tax incentives, and public outreach. Our EHPP listing partners receive technical assistance and advocacy support as they work to preserve at-risk historic places threatened by a variety of adverse conditions, from outright demolition to the lack of sustainable long-term stewardship plans. EHPP listings are featured on Preservation Long Island’s website and social media. Listed sites may serve as locations for our Preservation in Progress Tour series, which highlights ongoing preservation projects at historic places throughout the region. We also support our listing partners in developing informational materials such as leaflets or brochures outlining the history of a site and its preservation needs. Listings are selected by a panel of Preservation Long Island staff, experts in architecture, historic preservation, and other related fields, as well as SEMPER FIDELIS ALL-AMERICAN - East Islip High School senior and Olivia members of Preservation Zhang was recently named a Semper Fidelis All-American for 2020.

ENDANGERED HISTORIC PLACES - Summer Club Clubhouse, Town of Islip in 2018. This site is one of Preservation Long Island’s 2019 Endangered Historic Places. Photo by Dylan Wallace ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA Significance: A nominated site must be historically, culturally, or architecturally significant and may encompass individual buildings, landscapes, structures, or any grouping thereof. However, the nominated site need not be listed on the National/State Registers of Historic Places or designated as a local landmark. Threat: The existence and/ or integrity of the nominated site must be seriously threatened. In addition to planned demolition, threats can include a pattern of neglect or exposure that will inevitably lead to loss; the planned introduction of harmful factors or insensitive redevelopment that will substantially diminish the context or setting; or inappropriate maintenance/alterations resulting in the loss of material integrity. Impact: EHPP listing will have a positive impact on efforts to protect the nominated site. The nomination demonstrates substantive community interest in preservation of the site. Local listing partners are sufficiently organized and prepared to advocate for preservation goals.

Nomination materials should be submitted online via our website at preservationlongisland.org. Nominations submitted after Friday, December 18, 2020, will not be accepted. Please carefully review the eligibility criteria, submission instructions, and nomination checklist. To inquire about the program or nomination process, contact our Preservation Director, Sarah Kautz, at 631-4924664 x105 or skautz@ preservationlongisland.org Preservation Long Island’s Advocacy Programs are made possible in part by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature. arts. ny.gov About Preservation Long Island Preservation Long Island is a not-for-profit organization that is dedicated to celebrating and preserving Long Island’s diverse cultural and architectural heritage through advocacy, education, and the stewardship of historic sites and collections. h t t p : / / preservationlongisland.org

Fr. Richard E. Simpson, rector, St. Mark’s Episcopal Church in Islip, is adamant: “Christmas joy this year is about fighting hunger.” He adds that by

the end of this year, it’s estimated that 54 million Americans will go to bed hungry, with 17 million of those children. Santa agreed, so despite

December 5th’s torrential rainfalls, high winds, and cold temperatures, the church, at 754 Montauk Highway at St. Mark’s Lane in Islip, NY, continued

its monthly outdoor contactless food drop, raising over 20,000 items. Santa had helpers from the parish, communityat-large and Islip Rotary, as well as students from Stony Brook University. They all managed to protect the food, and themselves, from the wet.

Ending The Year On A “Be Kind” Note Shrugging off the terrible December 5th weather, Santa said he was “proud owner of an umbrella.” And the cars just kept rolling in to drop off food. All donations were sent to God’s Provisions, an affiliate of LI Cares. The organization distributes

food to pantries at churches, shelters and senior communities throughout Long Island’s South Shore. For more information about food donations, please contact Irene at the St. Mark’s office, 631.581.4950.

The Winter Solstice

The winter solstice is considered the shortest day of the year. The solstice is when the sun’s path has reached its southernmost point, producing the fewest available hours of daylight all year long. The winter solstice marks the first day of winter. Also on this day, the sun is directly overhead at high noon on the latitudinal point called the Tropic of

Capricorn. “The Farmer’s Almanac” says that some historians surmise Stonehenge was built to correspond with the use of solstices and other

solar and lunar events. Winter solstice 2020 in Northern Hemisphere will be at 8:30 AM on Monday, December 21.

As part of its charitable giving initiatives, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 1049 donated $2,000 to Island

A staunch supporter for working families, Pat Guidice, Business Manager, IBEW Local 1049, has dedicated his career to improving the lives of

East Islip Key Club Raises $200 During Movember

working families. “The Covid-19 pandemic has hit Long Island in a tremendous way, including impacting Long Islanders, just like us, who need to provide for their families,” said Guidice. “Now, many months later, we are still dealing with a pandemic that has drastically increased families’ needs, including those that never thought they would be faced with food insecurity. Local 1049 is happy to help our Long Island neighbors in every way we can.” “We are grateful for the caring and generosity from the members of the IBEW Local 1049,” said

Randi Shubin Dresner, president & CEO, Island Harvest Food Bank. “Their donation will help provide muchneeded food support for countless Long Island families struggling to put food on their tables.” Local 1049’s financial donation will support Island Harvest’s Turkey and Trimmings Collection Campaign so that Island Harvest can provide a meaningful holiday experience to people who struggle with hunger each day. IBEW Local 1049 is one of the largest private sector labor unions on Long Island with over 4,200 members.

IBEW Local 1049 Supports Island Harvest With $2,000 Donation As one of 767 IBEW local unions throughout the U.S. and Canada, Local 1049 functions as part of IBEW!s Third District which encompasses New York, New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania. The Union and its members play an integral role in supporting the Long Island community. Members include volunteer fire fighters, Little League and soccer coaches. They are working men and women who serve their fellow Long Islanders with pride, dedication and distinction. For more information, please visit https:// ibew1049.org.

KEY CLUB RAISES $200 - The East Islip High School Key Club, led by adviser Daniel Falkma, raised $200 this year for the annual Movember fundraiser for men’s health initiatives. Photo courtesy of East Islip School District for the cause over the last decade. “Our Key Club is always looking for ways to help in our community as well as looking at problems that IBEW LOCAL 1049 SUPPORTS ISLAND HARVEST - As part of its charitable face our world,” Falkman giving initiatives, the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local said. 1049 donated $2,000 to Island Harvest to help support the food bank’s essential food collection initiatives as the number of food insecure Long Islanders continues to rise.
