3956 Hempstead Tpke., Bethpage

Today, I turn 35, making that dreaded leap into the next age bracket. So long 1834. It’s been fun. Though age is but a number, it does tend to carry added significance the higher those digits climb. Each year brings with it a sort of reevaluation of life. Where am I at? Where do I want to be? And, most importantly, how to traverse that at-times tricky road between points A & B. Uneven as it might seem, I do believe we all have a path we are destined to travel. How we choose to navigate it remains somewhat open-ended. I’ve always felt my generation existed on the cusp of two worlds. A child of the 90’s, my teen years were spent listening to the sounds of *NSync and Britney Spears and watching T.G.I.F. on ABC

Friday nights. The entire grunge movement passed me by, as did many of the cult classic movies of the time. Twenty years later, I have found a new appreciation for all that came before. Pop culture aside, I feel my particular age group remains the last of the “old school.” We were brought up in an age where technology was limited to televisions and radios, Walkmen and cassette tapes. No one had a cell phone until I was well into college, perhaps a beeper if they were lucky. If you wanted to reach a friend, you called their home and most likely were greeted by their parents, who knew you by name. A night out consisted of being dropped off at the local mall or movie theater, then picked up by those same parents and taken

By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

to a local diner. To say things have changed would be an understatement. Of course, this is the case with each generation, as its members grow and flourish and begin to explore the world on their own. We pick up on elements of those who came before and modify them to fit our constantly evolving view of our surroundings as they, too, evolve on a near daily basis. The hope, in the end, is that we will never completely let go of those things which shaped us during our most formative years, the core values we were raised with. No matter how life may change, no matter how many age brackets we pass through, we must remain true to ourselves. Here’s to 35. Here’s to the next chapter, a fresh page in the old book.

Returning the Favor

Summer Drift By: Carolyn Mandelino

New Oyster Bay Town Supervisor Joseph Saladino joined celebrity Mike Rowe at Northwell Rink on his new show “Returning the Favor,” while recognizing Bryan Blomquist for his outstanding community service. Mike’s show recognizes the good deeds of others and in turn does something special for them. Bryan Blomquist, President of Island Sled

Hockey, has dedicated much of his time to the organization’s enthusiastic young participants, serving as a role model and acting as a mentor. Under Bryan’s direction, Long Island Sled Hockey fosters, promotes and encourages sportsmanship, teamwork and camaraderie. Long Island Sled Hockey also focuses on the development and nurturing of positive

attitudes in and outside the Long Island community toward those with physical and/or mental handicapping conditions. Supervisor Saladino proudly presented Bryan with a proclamation declaring July 28th, 2017 to be “Bryan Blomquist Day.” Supervisor Saladino presented a citation to Mike for having such a positive impact on the community.

I let my heart run free again - all to forget you That beautiful smile, contagious laugh and the way you loved to tease I missed the way you hugged me so tightly to put my heart at ease But you drifted away so quickly, like a tiny branch being swept away by the strong currents of time You were my air, my water - the very food that fueled my life And now I drift alone, awaiting for my lost heart to be found again But it seems whatever mountain I climb, river I cross, or simply wherever I am or whatever I do, my mind always drifts back to you

Value the Life I Have Lived By: Patricia Quill

Value the life I have lived... don’t dwell on the things I’ve done wrong but praise kindness or a gentle spirit. Value the life I have lived... I have mourned and felt my sadness and came to terms with my own brokenness. Value the life I have lived... It has merit and worth try, please, to understand my intention. Value the life I have lived... I have tried to be loving and do what I could If I have failed, it is not for lack of trying. Value the life I have lived... remember who I am as a woman a child of God just as every one else, human and limited. Value the life I have lived... I ask forgiveness for the destructive behavior that may have caused you to feel insecure.

50 Years of Service

New Town of Oyster Bay Supervisor Joseph Saladino today honored TOBAY Beach Lifeguard John McGovern for an incredible 50 years of dedicated service to the residents of the Town of Oyster Bay. Since joining the Town of Oyster Bay as a Seasonal Lifeguard in 1967, John McGovern’s diligence and attention to detail, as well as his hard work and professionalism, earned him the enduring respect and admiration of his peers. “John has dedicated the last five decades of his life to protecting the lives of swimmers and beach enthusiasts at TOBAY Beach and we are very proud to celebrate this incredible milestone,” Supervisor Saladino said. “His love for the job and

his dedication to service are typical of the men and women who so ably serve as Town of Oyster Bay Lifeguards.” As a physical education teacher working in the Massapequa school district, McGovern felt lifeguarding was the perfect summer job. Initially John provided swim lessons at Florence Avenue Beach in the morning and then travelled to Tobay Beach to work as a lifeguard on the bayside in the afternoon. By 1975, John was a Senior Lieutenant at the ocean, joined by his wife Donna, who was a staff lifeguard. Through many years of hard work, and dedication to the beach, John became Assistant Captain in 1990 and was later joined by his son Kim, and his daughter Stacey, who were also ocean

With his leadership, the TOBAY lifeguard corps is second to none and remains the best trained, most loyal, and most dedicated corps on the east coast. “John established a legacy of excellence that makes him a role model for every lifeguard to follow in his footsteps thereafter,” Supervisor Saladino added. “Every day he watches over the sands and beaches of TOBAY, he exemplifies and upholds the finest traditions associated with ocean lifeguarding. He represents the best of the best and we thank him for PULLING THE RIGHT STRINGS - Massapequa High School sophomore James his dedicated service to Kelly, a student assistant in the Summer Fine Arts program, gave incoming sixth-grader residents of the Town of Tristan Ehrhardt a one-on-one violin lesson as part of the Advanced Orchestra class.

Long Island Heart Walk Thousands of Long Islanders are expected to join the American Heart Association’s Long Island Heart Walk on Sunday, September 17th to raise funds to fight heart disease and stroke, America’s No. 1 and No. 5 causes of death. The annual event begins at 8:30 a.m. at Jones Beach, Field 5 in Wantagh. The non-competitive, three-mile walk includes teams of employees from local companies, along with friends and family members of all ages. “Walking briskly can lower your risk of high blood pressure, high

cholesterol and diabetes as much as running” said Bob Isaksen, Market President, Bank of America, Long Island and Chair of the 2017 Long Island Heart Walk. “I look forward to working with Executive Leaders across Long Island to help raise awareness and funds for the American Heart Association to continue its mission to build healthier lives, free of cardiovascular diseases and stroke.” 80% of Cardiovascular Disease can be impacted by our own actions. To drive this message home our Heart Walk will highlight

the pillars of our Healthy for Good mission – Add Color, Move More, Be Well, and Nourish to help encourage our Heart Walkers to adopt healthier behaviors. Participants will enjoy free yoga, hula hooping, and a silent disco to get their hearts pumping. Learn CPR, take a Healthy Selfie or stop by the Setton Farms food tent to enjoy some healthy snacks provided by Shop Rite. Families can enjoy some fun at the Voxx International Kid Zone for face painting, crafts and carnival games or stop by

the Chase Graffiti Wall to ‘Add Color’ and learn about ways to add more fruits and veggies to our diet. This year, they are honored to have Madeline Kellerman, born with a congenital heart defect to serve as the 2017 Long Island Heart Walk Red Cape Ambassador, hoping to raise awareness for congenital heart defects and provide hope for other families. Research has shown walking is the single most effective form of exercise to achieve heart health. The benefits of walking and moderate physical activity

for as little as 30 minutes each day can help reduce the risk of heart disease. The annual success of the Long Island Heart Walk is due in part to our sponsors. Local sponsors include; Geico, JP Morgan Chase & Co., Chase, Astoria Bank, Bank of America, Bethpage Federal Credit Union, Bradley & Parker, Voxx International Corp., Catholic Health Services, NYU Winthrop Hospital, Wells Fargo, Cohn Reznick, Berdon LLP, TD Bank, Zwanger Pesiri Radiology, & Luxottica. Local media sponsors are Anton Community

Newspapers, Cox Media Group, Connoisseur Media an WABC-7. For more information about the Long Island Heart Walk taking place on Sunday, September 17th visit www. longislandheartwalk.org.

Coney Island USA and Professa Adam Rinn Present: Sideshow School. Coney Island USA’s Sideshow School is the only school of its kind where students can learn the ancient and sometimes deadly secrets of the sideshow. A new crop of thrill seekers will be attending the next session, scheduled for August 22nd-24th at Sideshows by the Seashore. Now in its 17th year, Sideshow School has taught dozens of potential circus, sideshow and carnival workers how to walk on glass, eat and breathe fire, swallow swords, and hammer nails into their faces, along with a handful of other of the sideshow’s ‘working acts.’ Students take the class at their own risk and must sign a hold harmless agreement absolving the school and its instructors

from any possible injuries the students might incur. “In all the years that I’ve taught sideshow school,” Dean and Professa, Adam Rinn declares, “nobody has ever gotten hurt.” Rinn himself was a graduate of the Sideshow School and went on to become a prolific performer who has entertained audiences throughout North America. Sessions are capped at 10 students so that each student can learn in a safe and controlled atmosphere. “Safety is key when learning these feats,” says Rinn,“we don’t force anything upon the students, they attend the school because they want to learn these unique acts. It’s important to be patient and work with the students at their level.” Those attending the three day, hands on seminar have ranged from doctors,

Sideshow School authors and teachers who have a general interest in sideshow and circus arts to magicians, jugglers and bartenders who have used some of the skills they have learned in their own line of work to sideshow performers looking to expand their repertoire. But it is not all about the ‘working acts.’ The three day session also offers a history of the legendary amusement district and its role in olde time and contemporary freak shows. “It’s very rewarding when the students conquer their fears and hit the ground running,” The Professa states. “After each session, I get a slew of emails thanking me and telling me what a life changing experience sideshow school was. It certainly was for me!” For additional information, please visit: www.coneyisland.com

CHALLENGE COUNCIL WINNERS - In celebration of 100 years of Girl Scouts selling cookies, close to 5,000 Troops participated in the GSUSA Cookie Troop 100 Challenge, which required each Troop to ask 100 new customers to buy Girl Scout Cookies®. Girl Scouts of Nassau County Troop 2232 from Massapequa was named among the list of Cookie Troop 100 Challenge Council winners

Delicious Drinks (NAPSI)—Fruit can be a great way to add color and flavor to any drink recipe. For example, give lemonades a pink twist with watermelon and strawberry. Or

add blackberries and blueberries to an iced tea for a refreshing flair. Adult beverages can also benefit from a fruity mix-up, with margaritas leading the way. The natural tartness

of lime and tequila counter well with the sweetness of fresh fruits to create a smooth cocktail for enjoying outdoors.

Motivation to be More Active Today’s students arguably have more on their plates than any generation that came before them. But even with their hectic schedules, kids still have free time, which many are not always using in the healthiest ways possible. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, nearly one-third high school students play video games or computer games for three or more hours on an average school day. Sedentary lifestyles can increase kids’ risk for being overweight or obese, and many parents struggle in their efforts to encourage their school-aged children to get off the couch and embrace physical activities. The following are a handful of strategies concerned parents can employ as they attempt to

motivate youngsters to be more physically active. Choose the right activity. Physical activity and organized sports are not one and the same. Kids can still be physically active even if they are not athletic or if they are simply not interested in sports. Find an activity kids can embrace, such as hiking, swimming or even riding bikes, and they will be more likely to get off the couch. Limit screen time. Kids spend lots of time in front of computer and television screens, which can be detrimental to their overall health. Parents can place restrictions on the amount of time kids are allowed to spend surfing the Internet, playing video games and watching television, encouraging youngsters to spend time enjoying the great outdoors or playing

with friends rather than spending it staring at a screen . Join in the fun. Parents can set positive examples by being physically active and even exercising with their children. Rather than retiring to the couch after dinner, take nightly walks or bike rides as a family. This is a great way to get kids off the couch, but also a great way to spend more time together as a family. Involve kids in your own pursuits. Parents who are weekend warrior athletes can involve their kids in their own activities. Take kids along on weekend jogs, kayaking trips and so on, all the while explaining the important role physical activity plays in living a healthy lifestyle.

Choosing where to apply to college is a big decision that can affect the lives of young students for years to come. The college application process can have more immediate impacts as well, as U.S. News reported that the average college application fee was $41 in the spring of 2015, meaning families can expect to spend several hundred dollars just to apply to colleges. The rising cost of a college education coupled with a competitive job market only serve to emphasize the importance high school students and their families must place on deciding where to apply. The following are a handful of strategies families can employ to make students’ decisions regarding where to apply to college a little easier. Don’t hesitate from applying to a dream school. The Princeton Review defines dream schools as those colleges

or universities where a student’s academic credentials fall in the low end or below the school’s averages for students accepted the year prior. But even students who meet the academic requirements established by their dream schools may be hesitant to apply to such schools because of the cost of tuition. Students whose academic records fall just short of their dream schools’ criteria or whose financial means make attending their dream schools seem impossible should still apply to those schools. Financial aid might be available, and schools might look at more than just academic performance, particularly for students whose grades fall just short of last years’ average accepted applicants. Don’t be deterred by application fees. Stanford University’s application fee for 2017 was $90, making the school one of the

more expensive colleges or universities to apply to. But many schools, including Stanford, waive those fees for certain applicants. Students should not expect each school to waive their application fees, but they also should not let those fees deter them from applying, especially if they meet or exceed the application requirements. Choose the right safety school. Safety schools are those colleges or universities where applicants’ academic credentials make them a near certainty to gain admission. But when choosing safety schools, students should pick schools that they would enjoy attending. Applying to a school simply because you can get in and not because you want to enroll there can make for an unpleasant college experience should you ultimately end up attending that college.

Going Green at School Eco-conscious lifestyles may have transformed the ways people behave at home or on the job, but many schools have taken a little longer to embrace eco-friendly practices. But that doesn’t have to continue, as younger generations of students are growing up green and ready to embrace some green strategies in the

classroom. One of the easiest steps to take is to reduce paper usage. According to Edutopia, a K-12 learning and education resource, the average school uses approximately 250,000 pieces of paper per school year. This estimate is based on an average of 50 reams of paper per teacher at a 100-teacher school.

Instead of relying so heavily on paper, students can take notes on laptops or tablets while teachers can rely on smartboards and notebooks for classroom lessons. When paper must be used, make a concentrated effort to discard it in designated recycling bins in each classroom.

Man of the Year

Federation of Organizations honored volunteers from its Foster Grandparent and Senior Companion programs this past June at Stonebridge Country Club in Smithtown, New York. More than 250 guests attended The Senior Volunteer Recognition Luncheon, held annually to recognize dedicated seniors making a difference in the lives of children with special needs as well as homebound seniors. During the event, emceed by News 12’s Doug Geed, Federation’s Chief Executive Officer, Barbara Faron, presented Chief Operating Officer Philip Matcovsky as the organization’s “Man of the Year,” for 30 years of outstanding service. Matcovsky joined Federation in 1987 as a counselor in the homeless outreach program before moving up the ranks to become a supervisor, director and Chief Operating Officer. As COO, Matcovsky has been instrumental in helping Federation and its 500 employees navigate major changes to managed care,

while managing day-to-day operations of an agency with a $48 million budget. He continues to strive for the best possible care for Long Island seniors, as well as individuals who are homeless or living with mental health challenges. Federation’s Senior Director of Outreach Services, Tracy Falkner, LMSW, awarded Volunteer of the Year Awards to Foster Grandparent Jeanette Ingenito and Senior Companion Lucy Caracciola for their exemplary care and service. The agency’s 140 Foster Grandparents currently mentor more than 2,500 children in Suffolk County, while Federation’s Senior Companion Program provides support and assistance to frail homebound seniors. Senator Phil Boyle (NYS 4th Senate District) and Ed Romaine, Town of Brookhaven Supervisor, served as Guest Speakers at the event, commending Federation’s volunteers for their efforts to enhance the quality of life of Long Island children and seniors. Other notable attendees included New York State

Assemblywoman Kimberly Jean-Pierre (Assembly District 11) and Suffolk County Legislator Tom Cilmi, who represents the Tenth Legislative District of New York. Representatives from Senator John E. Brooks’ office (NYS 8th Senate District) and Tom Croci’s office (NYS 3rd Senate District) were also in attendance. Generous event sponsors included Lincoln Computer Services, Baker Tilly, Corporate Synergies Group, Mutual of America and Valley National Bank. “The compassion, support and guidance provided by our volunteers impacts numerous seniors and young students in our communities,” said Barbara Faron, Chief Executive Officer, Federation of Organizations. “We’re thrilled to honor their deep dedication and commitment, as well as the distinguished career of my friend and colleague, Philip Matcovsky. Many thanks to our incredible program and event sponsors and to Federation’s extraordinary volunteers for helping to transform hundreds of lives across Long Island.”

It has also become so much more. Event CoChairs, Michael Brennan, Bill Baum, and Jeffery Capazzi, agree on the appeal of the R. Brinkley

Smithers tournament. Remarks Event Co-Chair and Board Chair, Michael Brennan, “R.
