Coinstar, LLC, the leader in self-service coin counting, and Bethpage Federal Credit Union, the largest credit union in the Northeast region, recently announced the installation of Coinstar® kiosks at 22 branch locations in New York State. Bethpage selected Coinstar to replace existing coin-counting equipment after a twomonth pilot and has plans to add direct deposit functionality via Coinstar kiosks early this year. “Bethpage is thrilled to partner with Coinstar to provide our members, and the community, with a higher level of service when it comes to managing their change,” said Tara Labriola, vice president of retail banking, Bethpage. “When saved, change

Coinstar provides us with an updated, highly efficient turnkey service which is owned, operated and maintained by Coinstar, freeing up our branch staff’s time to service our valuable members.” Coinstar Provides Multiple Benefits to Bethpage Federal Credit Union: • Branch kiosks are serviced and maintained by Coinstar, no service contracts or capital investment • Coin is picked-up and handled by Coinstar; Bethpage employees don’t have to count, bag, or handle heavy coin

SMITHTOWN ANIMAL SHELTER 410 Middle Country Road, Smithtown • 631.360.7575 Batman, Joker, Penguin, and Wonder Woman are six month old super siblings named after some super characters. These kittens are shy when meeting strangers, so they are often overlooked by potential adopters. With a little time and patience put in to get to know them they show just how sweet, playful and loving they can all be. Shy kittens need a little extra work to get them to come out of their shells, but they are always worth the effort once you earn their trust. Currently, there are a variety of male and female cats & kittens available to adopt or foster. If you are looking for a fun loving, yarn tossing ball of love, stop by the Kitten Nursery or the Cat Condos at the Smithtown Animal Shelter and find a PURR-fect soulmate or two! All of the felines at the Shelter are current on vaccines and have received a full workup (blood work, Feline HIV & Leukemia tested, physical exam etc.) by a board certified Veterinarian. To inquire about having your shelter included in this column, contact Noelle Stanuch at Noelle@SouthBaysNeighbor.com. Please make sure to contact the shelter(s) to see how they are operating during the pandemic you are interested in adoption.

Angels of Long Island is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization ran by Debbie and Brittany, a mother and daughter duo. They turned a small Facebook group into a fast growing non-profit organization that helps countless Long Islanders in need. Their non-profit continued to grow so much so that Debbie and Brittany decided to open up a storefront location in Patchogue called Angels of Long Island. Their slogan Neighbors helping neighbors is a great reflection of what this thriving thrift store/boutique/donation center does. “We work so hard to keep our store clean and beautiful so that all of our customers who walk through our doors feels a sense of dignity and respect shopping at our store,” says Debbie. “We are not like your average thrift store! We carry designer brands and offer a unique experience.” The mission of this non-profit is to assist and advocate for people in our Long Island community who are in need of assistance. Their goal is to empower people to overcome poverty and live prosperous lives. They truly provide a wide range of services and goods to people in crisis, however anyone can come shop at their Patchogue store, which has recently expanded, located at 350-23 East Main Street. The store is proud to take many types of donations. They now accept bottle and can donations every Monday-Saturday from 9AM-3PM, where you can simply pull up curbside, pop your trunk and a team member will take the donations for you. All bottles and cans must be marked New York state deposit and no broken glass bottles are able to be accepted. Please remember to separate glass items from plastic items before you donate them. Pickups at your residence are available for large quantities of recyclables. Additionally, they accept other donations, such as new or gently used clothing, housewares, home decor and

furniture. Angels of Long Island will be closing next month and re-opening March 1st. If you are interested in donating to or volunteering with this organizaiton, you can do so until the last day of January or when they reopen in March. Below are images of their not-so-average store, where you can ﬁnd countless items for sale. All proceeds from this store go directly to help Long Island residents in need. Thank you Angels of Long Island for making a positive impact on Long Island!

How To Find Your Wedding Florist

Bridal Issue How To Host A Socially Distant Wedding

I t’s likely that few people heard of “social

SOUTH BAY SHORE - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 27, 2021 • www.longislandmediagroup.com

W eddings join the lives of two loving

individuals so they can share their future with one another. Various elements help make weddings both momentous and magical. Some weddings adhere to themes that are designed to make an impression and showcase couples’ personalities. Floral arrangements are key components of wedding themes, as they help to establish ambiance at both the ceremony and reception. Flowers can easily help couples achieve a desired vibe, whether that’s rustic, romantic, modern, or even whimsical. Skilled florists may use a variety of flowers and foliage, as well as dramatic displays to help create the couple’s wedding day vision. According to an internal study from the wedding advice and planning resource The Knot, which surveyed more than 27,000 couples who got married in 2019, the average cost of wedding flowers was $2,000 in 2019. However, the cost of floral arrangements can vary depending on the scope of the arrangements and choice of flowers, including whether they’re in season or not.

It is essential for couples to spend time vetting potential florists to find one who will produce their desired vision at a price that fits their budget. These guidelines can make the process go more smoothly. • Establish your theme early on. Floral arrangements will complement and enhance other elements of the wedding, including color scheme and the wedding theme. If your wedding theme ties into a specific season, you will work with the florist to find blooms and other pieces that coordinate. For example, winter weddings with white, ice blue and silver color schemes may coordinate with white ranunculus flowers, dahlias, dusty miller foliage, and viburnum berries. • Bring swatches and photographs to consultations. It is easier to explain color palettes to a florist with examples in hand. Show the florist the types of arrangements you prefer and have actual fabric swatches from bridesmaid gowns or groomsmen vests so that colors can be complemented. • Create a list of desired items. Florists may sell items a la carte or have

packages of common floral pieces for wedding celebrations. Types of floral arrangements include bridal bouquet, bridesmaids’ bouquets, maid of honor bouquet, corsages for mothers/ grandmothers, boutonnieres for groomsmen and fathers/ grandfathers, flower girl headpiece, petals to sprinkle, table centerpieces, altar arrangements, pew or chair decorations, and cake decorations. • Go easy on aroma. Tread lightly when selecting blooms that have strong aromas. They may be beautiful, but many people are sensitive to smells. Allergies also may be exacerbated by flowers with strong aromas. Discuss options with the florist before proceeding. • Explain your budget. Research the average cost of floral arrangements and let the florist know what you can afford. This can help the florist narrow down options or make substitutions that fit your theme and your budget. Couples can take certain steps as they choose floral arrangements for their weddings. Cost should not be the only factor in the decision, even though it is an important one.

distancing” prior to 2020. That changed as the novel coronavirus COVID-19 spread rapidly across the globe and the world found itself in the midst of a deadly pandemic. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention defines social distancing as keeping a safe distance of at least six feet between yourself and other people who are not from your household. Public health officials continue to champion social distancing while acknowledging the fatigue that many people have experienced as the pandemic stretched on for months. Though much of the world hit the proverbial pause button, life went on during the pandemic. Perhaps nowhere was that more evident than at the altar, where many couples still tied the knot, albeit in scaled back ceremonies that adhered to social distancing guidelines in their communities. Engaged couples who have yet to tie the knot no doubt recognize that planning a socially distant wedding will not be the

same as organizing more traditional ceremonies and receptions. While planning a socially distant wedding presents some unique challenges, couples can take certain steps to ensure their big day is memorable and safe. • Spread the socially distant word. Let guests know what they’re in for should they decide to take part in the festivities. Many people have strictly followed social distancing guidelines, while others have been reluctant to do so. Couples intent on keeping themselves and their guests safe from COVID-19 should emphasize that their weddings will be socially distant affairs so there’s no confusion come the big day. • Stream the wedding online. Stream the wedding online for those guests who won’t be in attendance. By the end of 2020, millions of people had already “attended” weddings via platforms like Zoom, so loved ones may be experienced virtual guests by the time couples walk down the aisle in 2021. Couples who may need some help

planning virtual affairs can visit the virtual wedding coordinators at Wedfuly.com, who recently partnered with Zoom to help couples bring their ceremonies online. • Pare down the inperson guest list. Couples who planned large weddings prior to the pandemic can still invite all of their loved ones to witness the festivities online, but pare down the in-person guest list to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19. Limit in-person guests to immediate family and those people who are part of your social distancing bubble. • Plan a party for down the road. Couples can still celebrate their nuptials with family and friends down the road. Plan a post-pandemic reception and let guests know you will fill them in on the details once social distancing restrictions have been lifted. Socially distant weddings may require couples to take some unusual steps as they try to tie the knot while keeping themselves and their loved ones safe.

The Modern Era

The modern era is often referred to as the “Digital Age,” but mankind’s relationship with science and technology dates back much further than the 21st century. According to Wired.com, in 2006 scientists confirmed that a device discovered in 1900 amid the remains of an ancient Mediterranean shipwreck was an analog computer. The device, since dubbed the

“Antikythera Computer,” was believed to help calculate astronomical cycles so sailors could more easily sail between Alexandria and Athens. The Antikythera Computer has been dated to sometime around the first century B.C., proving that man’s fascination with gadgets is an ancient one that has been paying dividends for millenia.

Pets have been kept for centuries. Statistics from various sources indicate North Americans own millions of dogs, cats, birds, small mammals, and reptiles. Pets’ affable nature and loving looks are enough for many people to welcome them into their homes, but the benefits of having a pet extends beyond their appearances and temperaments. • Pets can help prevent loneliness. Loneliness

affects people of all ages, but it is particularly problematic among seniors. Older adults who may be isolated can benefit from having a pet around. According to a study published in Aging & Mental Health, older adults who owned pets were 36 percent less likely to say they were lonely compared to those who didn’t have an animal companion. • Pets can save lives. Pets can be trained to perform various tasks

around the house and in the community. Rescue animals assist in finding people after natural disasters. Medical alert pets can help people with debilitating illnesses and assist physically impaired people with everyday tasks. • Pets help lower allergy risks. Keeping pets around can reduce a child’s likelihood of developing allergies by as much as 33 percent, according to a study by pediatrician James

E. Gern that was published in the Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology. People exposed early on to animals tend to develop stronger immune systems overall. • Pets provide socialization opportunities. A pet can be the common denominator to strike up new friendships and connect with others. Whether walking around the neighborhood or being part of a pet obedience class or interest group, pets can

Pets offer companionship and unconditional love. While they are fitting for any family, seniors may find that having a pet is especially beneficial. The organization A Place for Mom, which helps match families with senior living residences, says pets provide a comfort system that produces measurable health results.

Benefits of Unique Pets

377756N012721

• Pets can help combat stress. Talking to or stroking a pet can make stress easier to handle. A study from researchers at the State University of New York at Buffalo found that, when conducting a stressful task, people experienced less stress when their pets were with them. Various other studies and data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have found having a pet around can lower blood pressure, ease anxiety and may even help to lessen aches and pains. Pets provide unconditional love, which can be beneficial to someone facing depression or post traumatic stress disorder.

Pets bring much joy to the lives they touch. So it should come as no surprise that the 2019-2020 National Pet Owners Survey, which was conducted by the American Pet Products Association, found that about 85 million families in the United States own a pet.

• Have higher self esteem • Improved social skills • Higher regard for all living creatures • More responsible • More popular among peers

Amazing Benefits To Seniors Having Pets

Snakes and lizards: These pets can become attached to their owners, acting as a companion to them. Rabbits: These furry pets are not as high maintenance as dogs or cats but have a lot of energy and personality. They can bring you much excitement and keep you busy having fun! Birds: If you own a bird, you can talk to it and even teach it tricks! Doing so can promote healthy cognitive function.

Pets also provide emotional support and companionship that can help seniors — including those who may be divorced or widowed — feel more secure and happy. Seniors considering getting a pet can explore the many benefits to doing so. • Reduce pain. A 2012 study published in Pain Magazine found therapy dogs provided “significant reduction in pain and emotional distress for chronic pain patients.” • Feeling of purpose. Caring for an animal not only stimulates physical activity, but it also can give seniors a reason to get up and go, which equates to a feeling of purpose. • Altered focus. Having a pet can help seniors focus on something other than physical or mental health issues and preoccupations about loss or aging, according to New Yorkbased psychologist Penny B. Donnenfeld. • Increased physical activity. Pets require care, and that interaction can get seniors moving more than if they didn’t have a pet. • Improved health. Ongoing research from Harvard Medical School has found dog owners have lower blood pressure, healthier cholesterol levels and lower risk of heart disease than those who don’t own a dog. • Stick to routine. Caring for pets helps seniors maintain a routine. Having structure after retirement can be important to ward off risk of depression. Staying on top of feeding, grooming and other pet needs also can help prevent cognitive decline. Pets bring many benefits to their owners’ lives, and they may be the perfect remedy for seniors looking for a friend and purpose.

• Pets help teach responsibility. Taking care of a pet can help children and adults become more responsible. According to the American Pet Product Association’s 2011-2012 National Pet Owners Survey, 58 percent of pet owners say their pets help teach their kids to be responsible through routine care, exercise and feeding of the animal. Pets are more than mere companions. In fact, pets can offer numerous health and well-being benefits to people of all ages.

Alternatives To Engagement Rings

ngagement rings are often sizable investments. Money magazine reports the average engagement ring costs around $5,800. An engagement ring symbolizes the start of a lifelong commitment and may even set the tone for a couple’s wedding day. Jewelry styles are personal, and groomsto-be should carefully research their significant others’ preferences in terms of precious metals, colors and gemstones. Even though tradition holds that a diamond gemstone is classic for engagement rings, these precious stones are not the only options. In fact, before World War II, just 10 percent of proposals involved diamond engagement rings. That number jumped to 80 percent by 1990. However, many modern couples now lean toward other offerings not only for the uniqueness they provide, but also for the potential cost savings. Those seeking something unique

can embrace these engagement ring options. • Amethyst: This vibrant, lavender-hued stone can be breathtaking when cut the correct way. Purple shades have long been associated with royalty, making an amethyst fitting for such an occasion as special as an engagement. Because amethysts, which are less expensive than diamonds, are a seven on the Mohs scale for gemstone hardness, they can be very durable. • Knot rings: These rings do not have a center stone. Rather, they’re designed to be a tied knot or infinity symbol. These rings can be particularly sentimental as they represent true, unbroken love. • Opal: Gemstones, like flowers, have been assigned certain meanings. Tying the engagement ring to one of them can infuse more symbolism into the relationship. Opal, for example, represents love, passion, creativity, spontaneity, and

inspiration. Those traits seem tailor-made for surprise proposals. • Sapphire: While sapphire stones often are blue, they can also be yellow, green, pink, and white. Sapphires are the third hardest mineral. A white sapphire can be the perfect diamond replacement. • Garnet or Ruby: Red is the definitive color of love. A Valentine’s Day proposal can be made even more special by presenting an engagement ring with a red gemstone. • Moissanite: The jewelry source Brilliant Earth says moissanite is a gemstone first discovered in 1893 by Henri Moissan in a meteorite that fell to earth. It is remarkably similar to a diamond in appearance and strength. Moissanite also has heightened brilliance, with a refractive index higher than that of a diamond. Couples have many beautiful alternatives to diamonds that they can explore when shopping for engagement rings.

year, but some months have traditionally proven more popular times of year for happy couples to tie the knot. Summer was long known as the most popular season for weddings, but that trend has shifted in recent years. According to the 2020 WeddingWire Newlywed Report, 36 percent of couples get married in the fall, making autumn the most popular time to say “I do.” Though October and September are the two most popular months to marry, budget-conscious couples may want to consider getting married in winter. December, January and February are the least popular wedding months, but the experts at WeddingWire note that getting married during the slow season has its benefits. Vendors, including wedding planners and venues, may offer their services and facilities at discounted prices in

winter to account for the slow season. And guests might be thankful to have a fun event to look forward to during a time of year when social schedules tend to be less busy. Many wedding components will stay the same regardless of when couples walk down the aisle. However, couples may need to take a few things into consideration as they begin planning winter weddings. • Avoid holiday weekends. Just because social schedules are not always so busy in winter that doesn’t mean couples can pick any winter weekend to tie the knot. The holiday season, which begins on Thanksgiving weekend in late November and lasts until New Year’s Day, is a hectic time of year for many people. Avoid holiday weekends like Thanksgiving and the weekends before or after Christmas and New Year’s Eve/New Year’s Day. These weekends already are busy travel times, so couples might

not be able to get guestfriendly rates on hotel rooms, and some guests may already have plans to visit family. In addition to the December holidays, avoid the first weekend in February. That’s Super Bowl weekend, and many people may be reluctant to travel on the day of the big game. • Research local weather. It’s impossible to predict the weather, but savvy couples can research local weather in the town or city where they’re getting married to determine when is the most travel-friendly month to host their weddings. Some regions get heavy snowfall in January, while others may be more susceptible to late winter snowstorms. Couples with a lot of out-of-town guests should choose a winter weekend where snowfall is unlikely so guests don’t have to endure travel delays on their way to and from the wedding. • Purchase wedding insurance. Wedding insurance is a wise investment for every couple, but it can be especially valuable for couples tying the knot in winter. Each policy is different, but wedding insurance policies should protect couples’ investments if storms force local officials to declare a state of emergency that prohibits travel. Make sure the policy covers both cancellations and postponements. Winter weddings can help couples save money. Planning such affairs may require paying attention to details that would not garner much consideration during other times of year.

SOUTH BAY SHORE - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JANUARY 27, 2021 • www.longislandmediagroup.com

Great South Bay YMCA Helps Local Families Every holiday season, the Great South Bay YMCA orchestrates their AdoptA-Family initiative to provide support to local families in need. But in early December 2020 as COVID-19 cases surged and unemployment rates reached record-breaking highs, countless local families grew more concerned with their daily living expenses rather than fulfilling their traditional rituals of holiday dinner and gift exchanges. The “spirit of giving” became a touchstone in the early months of the pandemic and the Great South Bay YMCA tapped into their nearly thirty years of fundraising for the Y’s cause-driven mission, the dedication of their leadership team, and the generosity of its community to plan their efforts in new and different ways knowing this year would be like no other. To commence the AdoptA-Family initiative, the Great South Bay YMCA identified local families in need, in collaboration with the school districts they serve for Before & After School programs, volunteer leaders, Y staff and members, and corporate and foundation partners to raise funds for the holiday giving season. A portion of the financial

donations made to the YMCA Annual Campaign allowed the Y to do holiday shopping to provide gifts and food on the “wish list” to children and parents alike, wrap the gifts, and deliver to the families. Some generous donors also opted to do their own shopping and deliver wrapped gifts or gift cards to the Y for distribution. “The Y is able to work directly with low-income families in our community to identify the families’ specific needs and wants. We gather information on the children; their interests, clothing sizes, and wishes for holiday gifts. We learn what the parents or guardians’ needs are such as helping with their rent or putting food on the table for dinner”, says Bob Pettersen, Executive Director at the Great South Bay YMCA. He adds, “We try and give the kids something special for Christmas morning and give support to parents who under such stress during the holidays. They want to give their children the best but are so overwhelmed with bills and other various challenges. In 2020, the need to help our neighbors was simply greater than ever.” More than $42,000 was raised in December alone through the Great

South Bay YMCA’s Annual Campaign to adopt twenty local families for this holiday season, and provide families with access to Y programs and services through scholarships. Twenty-five children received special gifts under the tree and their parents received much needed relief. With coronavirus upending life, the Great South Bay Y focused on providing relief for children of essential workers, families with children who were remote learning, and families experiencing tremendous financial hardships. In addition to the gift cards, wrapped donated toys, and food relief, the Y donated Chromebooks to families who did not have the resources needed for their children in a virtual learning environment due to the pandemic. A recipient of the AdoptA-Family initiative said, “I just needed a break. Life has been so hard this year with COVID. I can’t keep up. These generous gifts brought me relief, and more importantly, joy to my children, because they really needed it this year. I can’t thank the Y enough for all the work being done to help us.” Like individuals, businesses and non-profits across Long Island have

A SURPRISE CHROMEBOOK - A local family receives a surprise Chromebook from the Great South Bay YMCA to support the student’s virtual learning this year due to the pandemic. been greatly impacted by the crisis, yet the Y’s mission of nurturing youth development, fostering healthy living, and inspiring social responsibility have pulled at the heartstrings of the Great South Bay YMCA’s committed volunteer leaders, partners and donors more than ever. “With funds raised through the Annual Campaign, the Y can provide diverse, life-enriching programs to all, regardless of financial limitation”, says Donna Bondy, Great South Bay

YMCA’s Annual Campaign Chairperson. She adds, “At the local level, it all happens thanks to a community of people who look past themselves in support of the greater good. Donors continue to trust the Y to be good stewards of their gifts and many people in the community become donors to the Y as a result of being a past recipient or in appreciation of the Y’s impact.” With fundraising being a critical lifeline needed to help the YMCA stay afloat, donors and partners

of the Y worked even harder this year to keep the momentum going for months when donor fatigue would historically be setting in. Local businesses, like the Bondy family-owned Sir Speedy in Bay Shore, donated resources to help the Great South Bay YMCA reach further into the community through their networks to ensure the Y could remain a beacon of hope even during a lifealtering pandemic.

An Elevated Risk

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, some medical conditions can put people at an elevated risk for certain infections. Heart disease, diabetes mellitus type 1 or 2, chronic lung disease, including COPD, and kidney failure are among the conditions that can increase a person’s risk for certain infections. The CDC notes the importance of recognizing this potential connection, as such a recognition can help

people understand the role vaccines can play in promoting their overall health. It’s also vital that men and women realize the connection between their lifestyle choices and their risk for certain infections. For example, excessive consumption of alcohol and smoking are two controllable risk factors that can elevate a person’s risk for infection. Learn more about vaccinations and your risk for certain infections by visiting www.cdc.gov.

Continued From 20 2020 Annual Campaign and the Adopt-A-Family initiative were made possible by partners such as the Bondy Family and Sir Speedy Bay Shore, LIAM Foundation, Ganzi Family Foundation, Sacco Foundation, Bay Shore Lions Club, Newins Ford, The Kussmail Foundation, Harbour Club and many others that contributed to these efforts. Mrs. Bondy leaves us all with inspiration after a difficult year. Bondy says the silver lining is, “The Y’s work comes to life through the stories real people tell. Stories that have the power to lift us all up. I continue to be in awe of this, of the amazing staff and volunteers, and of the capacity of the Annual Campaign to do so much good. Find a group of genuine people who challenge and inspire

you, and spend a lot of time with them because it will change your life.” For ways to contribute to the Great South Bay YMCA, please visit YMCALI.org or call (631) 665-4255.
