PLACING FLAGS - While the scouts were unable to attend the annual placing of flags at the local national cemeteries this year due to the COVID19 concerns, there were plenty of youths from Cub Scout Packs, Boy Scout Troops, and Venture Crews that continued the tradition of placing flags independently and in small, distance-safe groups. Pictured are some of the Boy Scouts of Troop 125 (Commack), working in two separate groups, spent time placing flags at St Patrick’s Cemetery in Huntington as well as the Huntington Rural Cemetery.

FASNY Offers Lifesaving BBQ And Grilling Tips During Lockdown

SUFFOLK ZONE 2 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JUNE 3, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

As New Yorkers are beginning to emerge from “New York on Pause,” and looking towards nicer weather, many will be dusting off and firing up their grills for the first time in months. The Firemen’s Association of the State of New York urges all New Yorkers to follow some basic rules and tips to avoid accidents and injuries, and to remember not to hesitate to call for help needed. “The warmer weather will certainly encourage New Yorkers to break out their BBQ’s for some outdoor cooking,” said FASNY President Steven Klein. “We want all residents to stay safe as we emerge from quarantine and heed some basic safety tips. We also remind everyone to continue to follow social distancing rules to keep their families and other families safe for the coming months.”

According to the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), from 2014-2018, an average of 19,700 patients per year went to emergency rooms because of injuries involving grills and gas grills were involved in an average of 8,900 home fires per year, including 3,900 structure fires and 4,900 outdoor fires annually. Keep everyone safe by following the important tips below. Tips from the NFPA and FASNY: Propane and charcoal BBQ grills should only be used outdoors. The grill should be placed well away from the home, deck railings and out from under eaves and overhanging branches. Keep children and pets at least three feet away from

the grill area. Keep your grill clean by removing grease or fat buildup from the grills and in trays below the grill. Never leave your grill unattended. Always make sure your gas grill lid is open before lighting it. Grilling Safety Video from the NFPA About FASNY  Founded in 1872, the Firemen’s Association of the State of New York (FASNY) represents the interests of the approximately 90,000 volunteer firefighters and emergency medical personnel in New York State.  For more information, visit www.fasny.com.

Home Garden Preparing Your Home For The Next Natural Disaster disasters like fires, floods, earthquakes, and tornados. Making sure your house is a secure and resilient structure is critical no matter where you live, as global warming has altered the climates and weather events of many

regions. Fortunately, thanks to advances in design and innovative materials, building a stronger, disaster-proof home is possible. An alternative to traditional wood-framing, Nudura insulated concrete forms are an excellent option many engineers and designers are turning to. The steelreinforced solid concrete cores range from four to 12 inches, providing far superior strength and safety compared to wood. Meanwhile the nontoxic, fire-retardant expanded polystyrene foam provides a fire protection rating of up to four hours. Homes built with these ICFs are proven to survive natural disasters — houses that faced Hurricane Michael in Florida and Hurricane Katrina in New Orleans are still standing. ICFs even offer wind resistance of up to 250 mph (402 kph), equivalent to an F4 tornado.

Homes that use ICF construction have other added benefits, including enhanced insulation for lower energy bills, a reduced carbon footprint, and improved ventilation for better indoor air quality and lower susceptibility to mold.

Concrete forms also require less maintenance over time, saving you the expense and effort of continuous upkeep and providing additional peace of mind. Find more information at nudura.com.

Scanlon’s Traveling Salon

www.ScanlonsTravelingSalon.com

Scanlon’s Traveling Salon is run by Eileen Scanlon, a fellow New Yorker whose mission is to cultivate a community based on kindness, respect and equality. Eileen has been a NYS Licensed Cosmetologist for over 30 years, however she has experience in many other industries as well. She has worked with corporate America, nonprofits, academia and local grassroots organizations. She is well-rounded and truly one of the kindest people I have ever met.

In 2010, Eileen began volunteering, offering free haircuts to people in need. Eileen felt so overjoyed by helping others look and feel beautiful for free while working within various types of socio economic communities, that she eventually began her very own traveling salon. With its catchy slogan, Where Style Comes To You, Scanlon’s Traveling Salon now serves an abundance of people across Long Island.

She also incorporates her love of social justice and advocacy into her business practice by using only vegan products. During these trying times when only essential businesses are operating, Eileen has shifted her focus to helping the homless community, a group she feels extremely passionate for. She has been bringing homeless individuals food, clothes, blankets, shoes, etc. to help them feel loved and cared for. Although she actively helps homless people throughout Long Island, she focuses a lot in East Meadow, a community she finds to have a large homeless population. “I’m one person trying desperately to make a difference,” says Eileen. “The ‘not in my backyard’ mentality needs to be a thing of the past!” Her clients, along with local restaurants have donated food, gently used clothes, blankets, shoes and more for her to distribute. The homeless community needs attention and assistance and together we can give them the help they need. One way we can start is by donating food, clothes, shoes, blankets, socks or any other important items to Eileen for her to distribute. She visits homeless individuals twice a day and any donations received will be handed out to those in need.

Some of the communities that Eileen serves are: the home confined and vulnerable, hospice, group homes, sober Lastly, if you or someone you know can houses, assisted living communities and benefit from Eileen’s salon services, you can now book an appointment with her those who are differently abled. for an upcoming date.

Artist Gisela Skoglund Featured at Apple Bank Exhibition

SUFFOLK ZONE 2 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JUNE 3, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Smithtown Township Arts Council is pleased to announce that the works of Gisela Skoglund will be on view at Apple Bank, 91 Route 111, Smithtown through August 1, 2020 The exhibition, part of STAC’s Outreach Gallery Program, can be viewed during regular banking hours. Kings Park artist Gisela Skoglund’s life has taken her through many forms of artistic expression. Early on, her original passion was for oil on canvas. In

High School, she was awarded a scholarship to Pratt Institute where she pursued advertising art. All her endeavors have brought her to the use of painting in the mediums of watercolor, acrylic and oil as well as the use of pen and ink. Gisela’s inspirations come from the beauty of nature, photography and other sights that appear in everyday life. She has exhibited her work in juried and invitational shows across Long Island. “I find that painting transports

me to a place where time is forgotten and I am totally concentrated and involved.” Apple Bank of Smithtown Modified Business Hours due to COVID-19: Monday - Friday: 9:00 am to 1:00 pm Saturday - Sunday: Closed STAC is grateful to Apple Bank for its continued support of culture in our communities. Smithtown Township Arts Council is a 501 (c) (3) not-for-profit organization.

A Plentiful Food Donation As the COVID-19 pandemic drags on, hospital staff across the island continues to push forward as the heroes they are. In response, Mather Hospital of Northwell Health & Platinum Catering has donated a plentiful food donation to honor and thank their Mather Hospital Residents. Spearheading the food donation effort, Dr. Schwartzberg of Mather Hospital, Colon and Rectal Surgery, Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) Surgery who also volunteers at the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation knew this was something he wanted to do to give back to his community. “They are a group of kind, giving and caring individuals who go above.” Dr. David Schwartzberg sits on the CMAC and Executive Council of the Crohn’s & Colitis Foundation’s Long Island Chapter and helps raise awareness for Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis. Dr. Schwartzberg is also the Team Captain for the TAKE STEPS + VIRTUAL event - the Foundation’s largest virtual fundraising event where patients, caregivers, and corporate and healthcare partners empower and inspire one another. We have one common goal:

to raise crucial funds for, and spread awareness about, Crohn’s disease and ulcerative colitis, also known as inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). TAKE STEPS + VIRTUAL will feature a live-streamed opening ceremony, along with mission messages from our community, entertainment, and more. More than 50,000 peopled walked for cures last year, raising nearly $11 million for mission-critical research and patient support programs.

Home Garden A Guide To Buying And Setting Up A Bird Bath Warm weather means more opportunities to spend time outdoors while at home. Whether your favorite form of outdoor recreation includes sitting on the patio reading or digging in the garden, there’s a good chance that you will be sharing the space with local wildlife. Optimizing opportunities to view and interact with backyard wildlife can make the great outdoors even more enjoyable. The Cornell Lab of Ornithology indicates that there are around 2,059 bird species on the continent of North America. Red-winged blackbirds, yellowrumped warblers, American robins, and chipping sparrows are among the most commonly seen birds in North America. Making a backyard hospitable to birds can increase the chances for sightings and hearing their sweet songs. Installing a bird bath can be a step in the right direction. Bird baths can make yards more attractive to birds. Birds

require a supply of fresh, clean water for drinking and bathing. By setting up a bath, homeowners can attract not only seed-loving birds, but those that don’t eat seeds and wouldn’t normally congregate around feeders, indicates All About Birds. Experts surmise that birds may bathe to maintain their feathers. Not all bird baths are constructed in the same fashion. Many bird baths sold in stores are better suited for decoration than for serving as functional baths. There are four general types of bird baths: standing pedestal, hanging bath, deck-mounted, and ground-level. In general, the lower a bird bath is to the ground, the more likely birds are to use it. Most natural sources of water birds use are on or near the ground. Therefore, groundlevel bird baths may be the best investments. It is important to keep the water in a bird bath shallow (around two inches of water or less). This enables birds to splash

around safely and wade in. Birds do not want to slide around, so a material that is coated and slippery, like glazed ceramic or glass, may not be too popular. Rough stone or a bird bath modified with pea gravel or rocks can give birds steady footing. Place the bird bath in the shade if possible to ensure the water is cool and fresh. Locate it by a tree so the birds can hop up to a branch and preen afterwards. All About Birds also says that a bird bath is more attractive if it has a dripping or moving water feature, as this is often irresistible to birds. Another way to ensure the bath will be used, is to keep it clean and maintained. Change the water every day or two. Rinse off the bath to remove droppings, bugs and other debris. Once birds learn there is a comfortable bath nearby, they may be more apt to visit a yard and may even become frequent guests.

National Grid, Long Island’s natural gas provider, has made a generous $10,000 gift to Suffolk County Community College’s COVID-19 Emergency Fund. The fund provides critical financial assistance to students at Suffolk County Community College whose lives have been impacted by the Coronavirus pandemic and has supported more than 550 students to date. The emergency aid has helped students facing financial hardships and of whom 95 percent are now unemployed. Many students have also lost healthcare coverage and are facing food insecurity challenges. Several have also lost parents, grandparents or other loved ones. National Grid’s gift will provide students with

direct support to keep students enrolled at the college and provide some financial assistance for basic needs while they study remotely. “As a Suffolk County Community College Trustee, a member of the Board of Directors of the Suffolk Community College Foundation and a veteran employee at National Grid, I am so very proud of this partnership and the promise it represents for our students,” said Belinda Pagdanganan. “National Grid and Suffolk County Community College are two wonderful, compassionate and caring institutions committed to providing our neighbors with support during these difficult times.” “National Grid came to the aid of our students when it was most needed”

said Suffolk County Community College Interim President Louis Petrizzo. “On behalf of our students, and all of us at Suffolk, we extend our sincere and heartfelt thanks.” “The Suffolk Community College Foundation enjoys a long and collaborative relationship with our colleagues at National Grid, explained Sylvia A. Diaz, PhD, LMSW, the Foundation’s executive director. “Their generous support comes at a time when our students are suffering from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We are thankful and appreciative for National Grid’s dedication and commitment to Suffolk’s promising students as they face hardships along their pathway to success.”

National Grid’s $10,000 Donation To College’s Emergency Covid-19 Fund

DELIVERING A SMILE -Students at Dogwood Elementary School in the Smithtown Central School District recently listened to the book “The Giant Hug” by Sandra Horning. They followed a hug on its heartwarming adventure through the postal system all the way to Granny’s house. They learned that mail carriers play a very important role in the community. Students expressed their gratitude for delivery workers who are working extra hard to provide essential goods as safely and efficiently as possible during this time. They posted pictures and letters to display outside their homes to show their appreciation. Many students also made sweet care baskets filled with snacks to show their gratitude.

Long Island Media Group • Publishing Since 1953 • 631.226.2636 • www.SouthBaysNeighbor.com Using South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper as a form of advertising has been a positive experience. It is the one local paper that is a staple here on the South Shore. I grew up with the South Bay in Lindenhurst and looked forward to receiving it when living in Massapequa and now in Massapequa Park. People stop me and comment how they see me in all the papers and honestly, theirs is the only one I advertise in, so I’m getting the exposure I wanted! Through this difficult time, it has been comforting to reach out to my account representative and have him respond so quickly, whether I am placing my own ad or an ad with other Signature Associates I work with and admire. I think it foolish not to buy print ads in the South Bay’s Neighbor, which is read by so many. Thank you for publishing this local paper. - Katherine C. of Signature Premier Properties

My attitude of gratitude starts with a huge thank you and profound/authentic appreciation for South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper. This paper really helped put my salon business “on the map” by increasing my client base. I also wound up being contacted by Senator Brooks’ office in regards to being nominated for the Empire State Award, which I then won, after they learned about all that I do for the community while reading the South Bay. I absolutely love this paper and I’m forever grateful what they have done for me. - Eileen S. of Scanlon’s Traveling Salon

The Michele & Mark Goodman Team

I have been working with my account representative for the past couple of years to promote my company in the South Bay Neighbor Newspaper and he has always been so helpful and fast to get back to us with any issues that may arise. I am looking forward to continuing our business relationship for many years to come! He and his team are a pleasure to work with. - Benny D. of Exit Realty Premiere

We have been advertising our homeowner’s homes in South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper since 1995. Over the years, we have successfully worked together with several account representatives, thus combining our talents to create advertising copy & photo. We value our long-lasting relationship with South Bay’s Neighbor especially during these challenging Covid-19 times & we urge everyone to continue to support their neighborhood businesses. There are lessons to be learned during this pandemic if we really listen & hopefully as a society we‘ll emerge stronger, wiser, smarter, more compassionate & empathetic. - The Michele & Mark Goodman Team (516-655-6613) of Douglas Elliman Real Estate
