The days are getting longer and the temperature is warming. This means that Daylight Savings Time will soon begin, and New Yorkers will set their clocks forward one hour on March 11th. The Firemen’s Association of the State of New York (FASNY) urges all New Yorkers to take this opportunity check their smoke and carbon monoxide alarms to ensure their homes are properly protected. If alarms have removeable batteries, those batteries should be replaced. Alarms equipped with sealed-in batteries should be tested to ensure they are in proper working condition. Alarms that are more than 10 years old should be replaced. At the end of 2015, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed a bill into law that will require all smoke alarms sold in New York State to be equipped with

sealed-in, non-removable batteries that last for at least 10 years. The new law will take effect in 2019 and marks an important step in improving New York’s fire safety. According to research from the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), three of every five home fire deaths occur in homes without working smoke alarms, and the vast majority of smoke alarm failures are due to dead or missing batteries. Ten-year smoke alarms require little maintenance, and unlike alarms with removable batteries, they are nearly impossible to deactivate. Regardless of the type of alarm in one’s home, FASNY urges everybody to take some time and ensure their alarms are in proper working order. “Smoke alarms are the single most importance appliance found in every

home,” said FASNY President Ken Pienkowski. “FASNY urges all New Yorkers to conduct routine, simple maintenance to ensure these lifesaving devices are in proper order. We strongly encourage New Yorkers to install 10-year smoke alarms, which cannot be easily deactivated. Equally important is installing

While there, he also devoted his time to molding young athletes as a district basketball coach. Within four years, he took on the additional role of Program Director of the 21st Century Day Camp at Queensborough Community College. In 2014, Mr. Johnson moved into the role of technology teacher for District 28. During that time, the district began to realize his full leadership potential and after only two short years in this position, they selected him for the role of assistant principal. Mr. Johnson said he was drawn to Nassau BOCES by an increasingly growing passion. “Through my work in the New York City schools, I fell in love with career and technical education, so helping to lead this program is a natural fit.” Adult Education is an umbrella under which a number of vital programs operate including Adult Career and Technical Education, Job Placement and Vocational Training.

Musings on March In like a lion… so blow the winds of March, and with them, promises of springtime blossoms nurtured by the warmth of the sun. But until then, we must contend with the last of winter’s storms, cold and rainy as they may be. Seems to be a metaphor for life as a whole, this month of transition which ushers us out of the doldrums of our hibernation into newfound energy and possibility. Of course, change is not necessarily seasonal, nor is it always dictated by Mother Nature, but the symbolism holds true nonetheless. Being of Irish descent, one of the more notable milestones has always been St. Patrick’s Day; however, upon visiting the Emerald Isle several years back, I was

intrigued to learn that the date holds little significance for those who reside across the Atlantic. The celebration which ensues on the main streets of many cities in America is, in fact, unique to the great U.S. of A. While spring officially arrives in just about two weeks, I have always associated the beginning of the season with the arrival of the Easter bunny and all the pastel decor it brings. Once April gets underway, it’s a fast track to warmer days ahead, afternoons spent soaking up the sun on the beach and summer concerts under the stars. But I digress. March, the month of tumult and turmoil, fading out into the serenity of spring. So it flows, and with

it we too are carried on the breeze as it beckons better things ahead. In the words of a quote I recently came across, We do not fear the unknown. We fear what we think we know about the unknown. A wise sentiment indeed. If only we could manage to harness these apprehensions and redirect them into positive motivation and drive to move forward, we would all be in much better position to succeed. Easier said than done, as with most things; but still, worth the effort in changing our mentality. Perhaps in the spring. ’Til then, stay warm and dry and enjoy these last few weeks of winter. And then, out like a lamb… to brighter days just over the horizon.

Longwood High School, students are asked to navigate the uncharted waters of the Earth’s most important resource. Specifically, they were tasked with discovering from where everyday water resources come, and what happens on its way to consumers. After carefully selecting one way in which they use water and learning as much as possible about the process the water takes to get to that point, the students then work to develop a solution that improves upon the system. “We are so excited to celebrate 10 years of presenting FIRST LEGO League Jr. to students across the Island,” says Rick Ramhap, Program Director and SBPLI/FIRST Long Island representative. “This program has been especially vital to elementary age students, who acquire real-

DID YOU KNOW? Long Island Is The Most Populated Island In The United States!

The Welcome Friends soup kitchens have provided hot, nutritious meals five days every week for over 27 years. The volunteer staff has increased to more than 200 remarkable members, and the guests typically number between 50 to sometimes more than 70 each night. Welcome Friends operates with a 100% volunteer staffed organization, assuring contributors that their donations are used exclusively for the preparation and serving of meals. The volunteers form an outstanding team that addresses hunger and works to expand relationships with individual supporters, local food markets, farm stands, religious institutions, community leaders and local village government. They begin the day early, picking up and delivering food donations. The food is then stored, sorted and prepared for the chefs. Volunteers set up, serve and clean after mealtimes. After almost three decades serving the greater Port Jefferson area, the leaders

and volunteers of Port Jefferson’s Soup Kitchen announced their decision to become an independent not-for-profit corporation, named “Welcome Friends.” The operation has become selfsustaining with a solid foundation of local community support. As they enter this exciting phase, the new corporation will serve our neighbors in the same caring tradition that has been the hallmark of these soup kitchens. Welcome Friends has independently met the challenge to become selfsustaining to ensure that guests need not fear the loss of meals. Under the leadership of the Executive Committee and Kitchen Coordinators, volunteers create a sense of community for neighbors affected by hunger and poverty by serving them with dignity and respect in a safe welcoming environment. Welcome Friends is currently in need of the following volunteer positions: Cooks, Assistant Cooks/ Food Prep and Pick Up/Delivery and a Grant Writer! If you are interested in any of these positions, please e-mail VolunteerWelcomeFriends@gmail.com or call 631.403.6707. This organization also accepts monetary donations, which can be sent to Welcome Friends Soup Kitchen - PO Box 88, Port Jefferson Station, NY 11776.

Congratulations To Josie Titcomb & Kurt Bogdahn of Lindenhurst Winners Of Our Engagement Contest! Read Their Engagement Story Below

“I’d like to say that our engagement story was picture-perfect but, the truth is our engagement was as real life as it gets. Kurt was coming over and, on his way in, he gave me a package from “outside” that he said must had been delivered. I didn’t think too much of it; I figured it was something I had ordered for Christmas. I opened it up and there was a box of Lucky Charms with a very legitimate looking letterhead. It said that I was a winner of their “Marshmallows Only” contest, which I had entered religiously over past few months since their promotion started. I was so excited that I put down the letter before I finished reading it, and took out two bowls for him and I to enjoy. A few minutes passed and he asked me if I read the letter and I answered him “yes” - but the truth is I didn’t. I was too involved in my marshmallow winnings to be concerned about the invoice. He picked it up and said to me that I won a prize. I answered him, “Of course I won a prize, we are eating it! Marshmallows are the best prize ever!” I took the letter from him and finished reading it. It said “Congratulations Ms. Titcomb! Please take the prize at the bottom of the box as a token of our appreciation!” I reached in the box and pulled out a little blue velvet box, and when I turned around, he was down on one knee and asked me for my hand in marriage. I was so surprised I wanted to scream with joy, but I still had a mouthful of marshmallows and started to choke a little bit. He asked me if I was okay and to please not throw up on him. I was finally able to stop coughing and he looked up at me - still down on one knee because I had forgotten to answer him! I finally realized and said, “Yes, 100 million times, YES!” He got up and we kissed and I was crying tears of pure joy! I realized he had painstakingly hand-picked out hundreds of marshmallows over weeks and weeks to give me the absolute sweetest, thoughtful engagement I could have ever imagined. It may not have been picture-perfect for everyone, but it couldn’t have been more perfect for us. Sometimes things don’t always go exactly as planned, but with a little bit of luck and a heart filled with love, memories like this will surely be cherished forever!”

SEAFORD - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 7, 2018 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

First Lego League Championship Following a series of six qualifiers, 40 FIRST® LEGO® League teams from across Nassau and Suffolk Counties are set to compete at the SBPLI Long Island Championship at Longwood High School on Sunday, March 4th. During the event, presented by SchoolBusiness Partnerships of Long Island, Inc. (SBPLI), students (ages nine to 14) and their mentors from the program will present their LEGO robots that best address the “Challenge” set forth in this year’s theme – FIRST HYDRO

DYNAMICSSM. Throughout the season, these teams were among the more than 190 that worked hard to research, design, build, program and test LEGO robots that address a problem within the human water cycle. Students were first tasked with identifying the problem - it could be something as simple as quenching one’s thirst or swimming in a pool, or as complicated as how water is used to produce food, energy and even technology, among other things. Once a problem

was identified, the students then evaluated current solutions that add value to society, developed an innovative solution, and subsequently presented their project to the Judges. In addition, using a LEGO MINDSTORMS® kit, they designed and built a robot to solve missions on the competition tables. FIRST LEGO League introduces young people to the excitement of learning with its partner The LEGO Group. Students are encouraged to explore and pursue science, technology, engineering, and math

(STEM) fields both within the FIRST program and in their future education and careers. Students presented their solutions during one of six different Qualifier tournaments that were held at Great Hollow Middle School and Mineola High School in late January and early February. Teams that competed at the Qualifiers worked to earn an opportunity to advance to the SBPLI FIRST LEGO League Championship at Longwood High School on Sunday, March 4th. The full list of 40

teams that earned the chance to compete in the Championship tournament are noted below. These teams will work to earn the chance to advance to the FIRST World Festival in Detroit on April 28th. “We had a great FIRST LEGO League season on Long Island and we are looking forward to our final event at Longwood,” says Stephanie Stern, CoProgram Director and SBPLI/FIRST Long Island representative. “Every year, we are amazed at the skills that our students acquire from this program

– be it teamwork and sportsmanship or science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) education. As we continue to add new teams and events, we project continued growth among FIRST LEGO League students in the years to come.” For more information on SBPLI and the FIRST Long Island complement of programs, or to become a sponsor, please visit www. sbpli-lifirst.org.

8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. Volunteers are needed during all hours, especially evenings and weekends. Interested individuals (18 years of age and older) should call NYU Winthrop’s Volunteer

Office at 516.663.2391 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m., Monday through Friday for additional information.

Volunteers Needed NYU Winthrop Hospital is looking for a few good men and women to serve as volunteers in the Gift Shop, located within the main lobby of the Hospital at 259 First Street in Mineola. The Gift Shop offers

Lunchtime Learning

NEW YEAR PRESENTATION - Nursery and Pre-K students were treated to a wonderful presentation about the Chinese New Year thanks to the Abreu family. Mrs. Abreu began by reading Dragon Dance to the children. Mr. Abreu, the dragon, led the parade as the children played the drums and symbols in celebration. This marks the beginning of the Year of the Dog. This is an excellent opportunity for the students to SCOUT SUNDAY - Cub Scout Pack 66, located in Massapequa, recently attended learn about a different culture. Thank you, again, Mr. & Mrs. Abreu, for visiting Grace Mass at Grace Episcopal Church in Massapequa for Scout Sunday on February 4th. Early Childhood Center!


The Seaford High School robotics team is ready for its upcoming competition. After weeks of planning and building, students will now wait for the SBPLI First Long Island competition in April to see how their robot measures up. According to the rules, the robot had to be completed by February 20th, well in advance of the April 12th-14th competition at Hofstra University. The students began building right after the holiday break and finished up over the February recess. This year’s challenge for each robot is that it has to be able to launch or place a milk crate onto a switch. About 30 students are on the robotics team, under the direction of advisers Neal Hagan and Nick

Isgro. It is participating in its sixth season of competition and last year finished fifth among 55 teams. The team includes a mix of newcomers and veteran members, such as juniors Lauren King and Joe Lange. “I love the atmosphere of the competition,” said Lauren, who added that she likes to see the different robot designs from each school. “We all come up with different ideas to do the exact same thing. No two robots are the same.” Joe, who will be the robot’s driver at the competition, said he enjoys the connection between simple mechanics and modern technology that robotics provides. He added that being part of the team is giving him valuable experience for a career in

mechanical engineering. Some pieces of the robot were used from previous years’ robots, while others were made by hand in the Seaford High School shop rooms. While some team members have specialized roles like driver or safety captain, everyone contributes to the design and construction of the robot as well as the team concept. With the robot now stored away, the team will spend the next few weeks preparing for the competition by discussing strategy, as each match features an alliance with two other teams. The students will also make decorations for the 10foot by 10-foot pit that will house the robot at the event.

Three Ways To Save


OWNER/BROKER

Dame was a godsent for us. She worked tirelessly to find us a home that we would love, and when we did find that home, she did not slow down until closing. We had a long waiting period from contract signing to closing, and at times, we thought that we were going to lose the house. However, Dame kept us sane and kept in constant communication with us regarding any progress to resolve the issues from other parties in the deal. When working with Dame throughout the home-buying process, it felt as if we were dealing with a family member who truly wanted the best for us. I can confidently say that we would not have our dream house now if it was not for the work that was put in by Dame Cascone.

Kevin Fechtmann, Massapequa

I cannot say enough good things about Erica. She really took the time to listen to the positives and negatives we discussed at each house we viewed. She remembered the qualities we liked and found future properties to see that met our expectations and beyond. She paid great attention to detail. She was patient and always positive as we viewed many houses over several months, usually toting two small children. She was always friendly, polite and reliable. Each major event along the way, from negotiating price to contract and closing, was handled stress free. She answered all my questions, and as first time home buyers, made us feel at ease throughout the process.

Peter Johnson was an outstanding sales agent. Very professional, responsive and willing to assist us in any way possible. We were out of state, so it was very important for us to have someone we could trust to handle everything we needed. Peter Johnson was that person. He went above and beyond. His hard work and the efforts he put forth are greatly appreciated. We would highly recommend Peter to anyone who is looking to buy or sell a home. Thanks!!

I would definitely recommend Lisa Towne when buying or selling your home. She is very knowledgeable of the local real estate market. She was super responsive as if you were her only client! Friendly and very professional. She made it very easy and did all the work for me. I could not be more satisfied.

Chris is very professional and charismatic. He was extremely knowledgeable and answered every question we had. He helped us list our home at the right price and we went into contract in a week. Thanks to him we were able to find our forever home. We would recommend Chris to anyone that is looking to sell or buy a home. Century 21 AA Realty is very lucky to have Chris.

We can not thank George Duquette and Linda enough. From start to finish they were there for us. Even with road blocks, they were right there and on top of everything! They found us the perfect neighborhood and perfect house. They even took our son’s request and gave him his dream house. We are honored to call them not just as realtors but our friends?

Frank executed a great strategy after we received multiple offers on our home and it paid off holding some as backups and being honest with other agents during the sales process. Frank was also honest with us, the sellers, and extremely supportive. He was right on the money with the listing price as well. We have already recommended Frank to a family friend and would recommend him to anyone. Frank handled all situations with professionalism and respect. He has great knowledge of the area and the market. Frank is always polite. He knew the market very well and formed great relationships with other agents. We trusted Frank with a key to our home and he fulfilled that trust. He was always available, to the point that I often had to tell him to go spend time w/his own family! We definitely felt like his priority and he genuinely cared for my wife and I.

After interviewing two other brokers we felt the most comfortable with Lisa. She was there for us every step of the way. After selling our house in one day, Lisa was available 24/7 via text phone or email and was in constant contact regarding the sale. She was very supportive and even recommended an attorney and movers who were wonderful! We couldn’t have gone through this process without her. I can’t sing her praises enough! Not only was she our broker but now we consider her our friend!
