he Smithtown Senior Citizen Department recently hosted a friendly game of pool - actually a tournament between a group of seniors from Smithtown and their counterparts in Huntington. The pool room was filled with both players and spectators for the afternoon. The teams were evenly matched, and in the end, victory was declared as Smithtown players were invited to travel to Huntington for round 2! Great job to both sides!

You do not have to become bosom buddies with everyone, but making connections with fellow parents can reinforce the value of friendship to your children. Socializing as families also presents other opportunities to get together and solidify relationships. • Boost confidence levels. As a parent you can talk to your children about their strengths and positive attributes. Emphasizing kids’ best traits will increase their self-esteem, and that sense of self-worth can make it easier for them to make friends. A child who is shy and insecure may retreat when meeting new people, but a child who can proudly stand behind his or her accomplishments may attract friends easily. School is about more than just hitting the books. It’s also a prime opportunity for kids to develop their personal skills and make new friends.

Troop Fishing Trip
Boy Scout Troop 343 (Hauppauge) sailed on Friday, August 8th, aboard Capt Gillen from Captree State Park with a total of 19 scout and adult participants, from 4:30 p.m. to “returning in the dark.” They could not have asked for a better night weather wise – the ocean was flat and calm, sky clear, and there was a beautiful sunset. A number of first were achieved this evening – for some, it was their first fishing trip, for some it was their first time in the Atlantic Ocean and Great South Bay, and for some it marked their first catch! The scouts and their family members began fishing a few miles south west of Fire Island inlet and hit different depths as we looked for fish. The Bobellis scouting family lead by Scout Darius B. who managed to catch all the keeper fluke for the evening. Scouting Mom
Cathleen Bobellis won the boat pool landing the largest fish of the trip. All the boys enjoyed a pick of fluke, blue fish, and sea robins. Sea Bass, Fluke, and Sea Robins were among the fish that were caught and brought on board (even though not all were “keepers”). A number of scouts were able to move towards completion of requirements for the Fishing merit badge (headed by scouting parent/Fishing Merit Badge Counselor Ron Moe) as they caught and assisted in cleaning their fish as well as were able to identify the type of fish as well as to name and explain five safety practices you should always follow while fishing (including explain how to remove a hook that has lodged in your arm, should this ever happen), discussed the differences between two types of fishing outfits
and to identify the parts of several types of rods and reels (fresh and salt water equipment), and also how and when each would be used as well as how to care for this equipment. Many of the Troop 343 Boy Scouts were able to meet the last requirement of their fishing merit badge by landing a fish. Assistant Scoutmaster Ron Moe, as a fishing merit badge counselor, was aboard to assist the boys in pursuit of their fishing merit badge and all had a good time. The scouts and their family members who participated were: Boy Scouts James T, Shane F., Ryan M., Jack C., Colin M., Ian McA., Zac M., Michael P. Jr Darius B., Jr. and their volunteer scouting leaders and parents Astrid Trefz, Lawrence Fielder, Ted Martines, Joe Catapano, Ron Moe, Eric McAlister, Darius Bobellis and Michael Piazza.

Kids Act, the United States National School Lunch Program was revised to guarantee healthy, nutritionally sound choices, as established by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, for lunch. America’s school menus were altered to be healthier than ever, including more fruits and vegetables while limiting calories. Despite some controversy through the years, including some students saying the smaller portions and food choices aren’t always satisfying, states suffering from high child obesity rates have seen marked improvements. Canada is one of the few leading industrialized countries that does not have a national nutrition strategy to implement healthy school lunches. It’s estimated that only 10 to 15 percent of Canadian children have
access to school meals. These meals are not provided by a well-funded national program, but by a patchwork of individual volunteer efforts, some provincial government funding and corporate donations. Whether students purchase lunch from school or bring lunch from home, there are ways to guarantee a more diverse offering and better nutrition. Here are some guidelines to follow. • Offer nutrient-dense foods. Foods should contribute to the daily recommended amounts of protein, iron, calcium, vitamin A, and vitamin C. Provide a selection of foods, such as lean protein, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables, that will give children the nutrients they need. Nutrient-dense foods also help kids feel fuller, longer.
Students learn many important lessons while in middle school and high school. Assignments get progressively more difficult, and students grow accustomed to being independent thinkers and largely responsible for their educational accomplishments. In addition, students may learn other lessons, such as how organization can play a critical role in success and benefit them both in the classroom and out of it. Students are typically introduced to lockers during high school or middle school. As elementary school students, kids use classroom desks to store books and supplies, and how desks are organized is often governed by teachers who have firm rules regarding the condition of desks. Lockers are an entirely different story. Students are solely responsible for organizing and maintaining their lockers and may be tasked
with following a few rules set forth by the school. Students may overlook the importance of organized lockers, and in such instances lockers can easily become disaster areas. But a messy locker can add unnecessary stress to a school day. Getting lockers organized requires some effort and upkeep. • Color code the locker. Grouping subjects by color can make it easier to find notebooks, textbooks and folders in a locker. If materials necessary for math class are colored in red, students can quickly find these materials en route to class. • Remove trash. Remove anything that does not belong in the locker, including garbage and old projects. Students should not use their lockers to store items they don’t need for school. That only takes away space for the stuff kids do need for class. • Group according to schedule. In addition to employing a color-coding
system, students also can group books by daily schedule. Organize the locker based on which classes are held in the morning and afternoon. This makes it less likely that students will forget supplies they need for class. • Think about extra accessories. Lockers have the basics, which are usually a shelf and a hook for coats. All sorts of locker accessories exist to customize the interior. An extra shelf may be helpful for storing books or smaller supplies. Look into a message board or more hooks that can be hung on the inside of the door. Figure out what your child can use to keep items from piling up on the floor. • Develop a maintenance plan. Old assignments may begin to accumulate inside a locker. This can be remedied by maintaining a cleaning schedule for a locker. A few minutes each week can keep a locker clean and clear of clutter.
Organize Your Locker
• Limit fat intake. Avoid foods that do not get their fat from polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fats. Saturated fats can lead to obesity and clogged arteries. The American Heart Association recommends kids get no more than 25 to 35 percent of their calories from fat. Fish, nuts and olives are healthy fat sources. • Let kids choose some of their food. Allow kids to pick some of the healthy foods they will be eating. Giving kids a say in their diets will make them more likely to enjoy their lunches and cut back on snack foods. Eating meals regularly will keep energy levels up during school and make kids less likely to reach for unhealthy snacks to fill hunger gaps. • Make small changes that add up. Switching from white bread to whole grain breads, and opting for low-fat dairy products instead of full-fat dairy products can make a world of difference. Kids may not notice a change in texture or flavor, and many of kids’ favorite foods, such as chicken nuggets, pizza and macaroni and cheese, can be made with healthier ingredients. • Remember, beverages count, too. Giving children a healthy lunch and then packing a sugarfilled, high-calorie drink negates your efforts. Calories from beverages can quickly add up. Water is always the best option for a healthy drink. Low-fat milk and real fruit juice consumed in moderation also make healthy alternatives to sugary beverages. Offering healthy school lunches is an important step to raising healthy kids. New guidelines and offerings make it easier for kids to get the nutrition they need for their growing bodies.

The benefits of a healthy diet are clear and well documented. In addition to providing the nutrients a growing body needs, consuming a balanced diet helps children maintain a healthy weight. Obesity continues to be a growing problem among schoolaged children and can contribute to the onset of type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, and many other adverse medical conditions. Children attending school will eat at least one meal away from home each day. A healthy lunch provides sound nutrition to give students energy to do well in school and for the rest of the day. Children who do not eat well at lunch may have difficulty concentrating, while others may feel sluggish or tired. As part of the 2010 Healthy, Hunger-Free

With home pickups beginning at 7:30 a.m., their buses will pick you up at home and bring you to the Senior Center. In addition, their drivers take residents to a variety of venues including Supermarkets, The Smith Haven Mall, Town Hall & Assessors’ Office, Senior Citizen Club Meetings, the Library, Beauty and Nail Salons, Doctor Offices,

100 Years Young
FAMILY BREAKFAST - St. Johnland Nursing Center’s Adult Day Health program held its annual Family Breakfast. The Medicaid-approved 6-day a week program provides a wide range of medical services and socialization in a secure environment while allowing participants to live at home and continue to be a vital part of family life. Legislator Steve Stern, Chairman of the Veterans and Seniors Committee, recently celebrated the 100th birthday of Fay Cohen, a resident of The Atria in East Northport with her family and friends. Fay Cohen was born on July 27th, 1914, the daughter of Sam and Ida Binder and one of five children who lived and
worked on the premises of Fox’s U-Bet Syrup in Brooklyn, New York. In her early years, she worked as a seamstress on Long Island and then moved to Florida, where she lived for 40 years. Fay enjoys bowling and played the game until she retired at the age of 98. She raised two children and has four grandchildren, 10 great
grandchildren and three great-great grandchildren with two more on the way. “It is a privilege to celebrate such a momentous milestone,” Legislator Stern said. “Not only is it a wonderful occasion to reach one’s 100th birthday, but Fay’s represents a lifetime of happiness that deserves great celebration.”

Technology is an important part of many people’s daily lives. Devices like computers, tablets, smartphones, and video games are now so widely used that it’s hard to imagine a life without email, the Internet or text messages. Even children are proving adept at using technology, which can be a valuable tool for educators attempting to reach today’s youngsters. Digital learning is learning facilitated by technology. Not only can digital learning be done in the classroom, but also it can extend to home life as children continue to explore lessons through hands-on interaction with digital devices. According to data from Project Tomorrow’s “Speak Up” study, an initiative of the nation’s leading education nonprofit organization, students are frustrated with the lack of technology in their schools and by the lack of sophisticated use of that technology. The study indicates that students want more of the following: • Social-based learning • Tools that increase untethered learning • Development of and connection to a personal network of expert resources • A digitally rich learning environment Students acclimated to technology at home are not content to merely rely on textbooks or CDs in the classroom. They’re more interested in interactive, Web-based tools that enhance communication and collaboration. As a result of this shifting landscape, parents should expect to see more lessons and homework involving interactive technology. To

According to the Centers for Disease Control, one out of every three people over the age of 65 fall each year, and many die as a result of injuries from a fall. The Gurwin Jewish Fay J. Lindner Residences, Gurwin’s Assisted Living community, 50 Hauppauge Road in Commack, will be hosting “Stepping On,” a seven-week program featuring Nelida Zoeller, Falls Prevention Coordinator for the Suffolk County Department of
Health, to help older adults who are at risk for falling. The “Stepping On” program empowers older adults to carry out behaviors that reduce the risk of falls, improve self management and increase quality of life. Through the program, older adults develop specific knowledge and skills to prevent falls in community settings. Older adults should consider attending if they a) are at risk of falling; b) have a fear of falling; or c) have

fallen one or more times. The highly-participative course will meet on Wednesdays, beginning on September 17th through October 29th. Class time is 10 a.m. to 12 noon. The course is FREE, but preregistration is required by September 10th to attend. For more information, or to register for the class, call Kim Gentiluomo at 631.715.8515, or e-mail kgentiluomo@gurwin.org.
On Sunday, August 24th, Matthew Robert Fortmeyer was honored by Boy Scout Troop 343, at his Eagle Scout Court of Honor and became the Troop’s 84th Eagle Scout. Matthew, entering his senior year in high school, began his quest to Eagle in 2004, when he joined the Cub Scouts and over the next six years, he would progress through the SALONE DI BIANCA - Salone Di Bianca recently held a ribbon cutting ceremony at ranks until he reached the 369 West Jericho Turnpike in Huntington to celebrate its grand opening. Among those on hand for the occasion were: Owner Bianca Falzone, Master Colorist Dana Rabena, Top Stylists Danielle Ciccolella and Dora Nolasco, and Junior Stylist Caroline Bokszczanin. This full-service salon is open Tuesdays through Saturdays. Congratulations and best of luck to you in your new endeavor!
pinnacle of success. Since 1912, less than five percent of Boy Scouts have earned the Eagle Scout rank, who are examples for those both in scouting and the community as a whole. Eagles do their best each day to make their communities better, their rank and their influence count strongly for better scouting and for better citizenship in their troop, community, and in their contacts with other people. To this they pledge their sacred honor. Required to earn 21 merit badges, Matthew went above and beyond and earned a total of 37 badges, ranging from Astronomy to Wood carving. Matthew also received awards, such as the Cub Scout Arrow of Light, Order of the Arrow, Ad Altare Dei Religious Medal, Pope Pius XII Religious Medal, and World Conservation Award. For Matthew’s Eagle Scout project, he removed a portion of the old split

rail fencing that formed the main animal enclosure at Hoyt Farm Park and replaced it with fencing that matched the newer, more recently built enclosure. Approximately 170 feet of old split-rail fence and gates were removed and replaced with a new fence and gates made from pressure treated lumber and wire horse fencing. The new fence is much more secure and much more attractive. The enclosure benefits the park, the animals it protects and many visitors, mostly children, who come to watch and feed the animals. The projected was completed on September 7th, 2013. The Eagle Scout is a long tradition in the Fortmeyer family, as Mathhew’s older brother Christopher Fortmeyer became an Eagle Scout several years ago, while his father Gary Fortmeyer is a parent volunteer with the Scouts.

The Smithtown Senior Citizen Department recently hosted a friendly game of pool - actually a tournament between a group of seniors from Smithtown and their counterparts in Huntington. The pool room was filled with both players and spectators for the afternoon. The teams were evenly matched and the mood - serious and quiet, as the players plotted their strategies. In the end, victory was declared as a great time was had by all
and the Smithtown players were invited to travel to Huntington for round 2! Laura Greif, Program Director at the Smithtown Senior Citizen Department who hosted the event, said “Billiards is just one of many activities we sponsor, but an important one, as our pool room is a very busy place. I would like to point out that the sport is not just for men - we have a very competitive group of female players as well!” The pool room is open Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m. until 4:30 p.m. All
equipment is provided free of charge and the Center has three regulation size tables. Tables are available on a first come first served basis. New players are always welcome to the pool room and our entire Senior Center. Stop by and visit us one day soon!

The Right Chemistry
When you speak to Steven Parrinelli today, you sense a smart, confident young man who is carefully selecting his next moves to achieve his goal of a career in medicine. But as a grammar school student at St. Patrick School in Huntington, Steven hadn’t selected a direction for his life. In fact, according to Steven; “My breakout years didn’t come until I was a high school student.” Parents That Believed In Catholic School
Like many of the students in Catholic elementary schools, Steven started in elementary school because his parents “are strong believers in Catholic education”. The elementary school they selected for Steven, St. Patrick’s in Huntington, reinforced the values they lived at home and was able to provide a great deal of individual attention to Steven’s learning needs. Steven remembers St. Patrick’s for its small size, for the many friends he made during his time there, and for the strong feeling of community within St. Patrick Parish and School. “St. Patrick’s provided an excellent educational foundation, and I was a good student, but I hadn’t yet gotten competitive about my grades.” said Steven. The “Breakout” Years Like the overwhelming majority of Catholic elementary school students, Steven elected to go to Catholic high school and like the most of the students he got his first choice of schools: St. Dominic’s in Oyster Bay. It was after mid-term exams in Steven’s first year at St. Dominic High School that he had what he considers his ‘breakout’. The chance to be on the Honor Roll at St. Dominic’s gave him the incentive. The additional recognition each trimester of a Principal’s List Luncheon made it personal. The individual attention he received and the chance to know the teachers from his AP (Advanced Placement) classes personally were some of Steven’s favorite parts of the high school experience. One Individual
Stands Out While the interpersonal relationships Steven enjoyed with his teachers and members of the administration were powerful incentives, one particular relationship stands out. As Steven puts it; “My Global History and US History teacher, Mr. Drysielski, taught me the most valuable skill I mastered in high school.” “He taught me how to express myself better in writing.” Steven continued. “Being a better writer has helped me everywhere.” Looking Forward After looking at various college options, Steven was invited by the University of Scranton to visit their campus. In Steven’s words; “I felt like I belonged here.” The manageable size of the school, the friendly people, and a strong science program were the ‘selling points’. That and the Dean’s Scholarship which will fund half of Steven’s college were all considerations in selecting the University of Scranton. “I am considering a career in medicine,” said Steven. “The strong science program at the University of Scranton will help me prepare for medical school.” My discussion with Steven ended with his rationale for wanting to become a doctor; “I like to help people.” We couldn’t agree more! Steven is a fine example of the academically prepared and spiritually grounded students graduating from Long Island’s Catholic schools.

School Bus Safety Many students take the bus to school twice a day, five days a week. Approximately 26 million elementary and secondary school children ride school buses daily in the United States, and the U.S. Department of Transportation says more than 50 percent of all K-12 students in the country ride yellow school buses, traveling approximately 4 billion miles each year. The vast majority of these miles are traveled without incident. In fact, according to the National Safety Council, the national school bus accident rate is 0.01 per 100 miles traveled, compared to 0.96 for other passenger vehicles, which makes school buses considerably safer than other passenger vehicles. Though school buses are safe, there are other ways to make them even safer. Children, especially those new to school buses, may find the bus fun
and unique and not pay attention to simple safety rules. But parents should take steps to ensure that youngsters always heed the following school bus safety guidelines. • Wait for the bus in a safe location that is away from traffic, ideally staying in a designated school bus stop until the bus arrives. • Dress for optimal visibility, especially in inclement weather when it can be difficult for the school bus driver and other motorists to see pedestrians. • Do not board the bus until it comes to a complete stop. Wait for the driver to open the door, which engages the “Stop” sign for oncoming motorists. • Use the handrail and enter the bus in an orderly manner. • Promptly find a seat, sit down and buckle the safety belt if there is one available. Students assigned seats on the bus should take their
seat without making a fuss. • Keep backpacks and other belongings out of the center aisle. Store them under your seat or on your lap. • Remain seated at all times while the bus is in motion. • Keep arms, hands, legs, and heads inside of the bus at all times. • Always follow the driver’s instructions and avoid situations that will cause driver distraction. • Wait for the bus to stop completely before standing up or attempting to exit. • Exit the bus in an orderly manner, without pushing fellow passengers. • Only cross the street in front of the bus. It is very difficult for the driver to see students crossing behind the bus. • Wait for the driver to check traffic before crossing the street and be on the lookout for inattentive motorists.

Age 5 is a big year in a child’s life. In many school districts, children enroll in kindergarten shortly after their fifth birthdays. But age alone does not dictate if a child is ready to transition from a preschool environment to kindergarten, and parents may need to work with educators to determine if their children are ready to take the first big step of their academic careers. Many developmental and education experts believe that numerous factors, in addition to age, determine school readiness, including physical, social and cognitive development. Many parents want their kids to begin kindergarten at the same time as other kids their age, but enrolling youngsters before they’re ready could have repercussions for years to come. Students who begin kindergarten before they’re ready may fall behind, resulting in frustration that turns them off from school. With such significant stakes, parents may want to answer a few questions and look for these generalized kindergarten readiness clues before enrolling their youngsters in school. • Does my child have solid oral-language skills? Language is more than drilling letters and sight words into a child’s head through repetition. Language allows kids to share in new experiences and lessons that will expand their vocabularies. The more kids experience,
the more their curiosity grows. This opens up opportunities for discussion about a variety of topics and introduces words and concepts that may be new and exciting to children. Research indicates one of the best predictors of eventual reading success is a welldeveloped oral vocabulary in kindergarten. Children will retain words if they hear them enough and if they’re used in context and conversation. • Can my child listen to and follow instructions? Kindergarten students will be introduced to many foreign things, and some kinds may be in a school environment for the very first time. Teachers will be issuing instructions and seeking cooperation from the class. To keep up with peers and lessons, kindergarteners will need to be able to remain quiet for extended periods of time, listen to instructions and then properly act on them. • Is my son or daughter excited about learning? Some children cannot wait to go to kindergarten, especially those who are excited at the prospect of going to the same school as their older siblings. Enthusiasm about school and an eagerness to learn and discover new things are indicative of kindergarten readiness. A child does not need to have mastery over every skill just yet, but taking the initiative to try and ask questions is a good start to successful learning. • Does my child want

Ready For Kindergarten? to be independent? The phrases “I’ll do it myself” or “I’ll try” can be music to a kindergarten teacher’s ears. Parents may be in a rush and find it easier to dress kids or get them snacks. But doing everything for kids puts them at a disadvantage. Independent streaks can help kids adjust to school. Kindergarteners may have to go to the bathroom and wash up independently. They also may have to fasten buttons, open up lunches and hang up coats. Children who cannot handle such tasks may struggle to adjust to a school environment. • Can my child recognize basic letters and numbers? Children entering kindergarten should know most letters by sight and be able to count to 10. Preparing for kindergarten can be fun and does not require flash cards or homework. Encourage kids to count objects in the world around them or do some preliminary reading by recognizing letters on signs at stores or places in the neighborhood. Kindergarten readiness is determined by a variety of factors, including age, school assessment, enthusiasm about learning, and signs of independence.
