Schreiber Walkout

The students of Schreiber High School participated in the national walkout to demand stricter gun laws

JULIE PRISCO jprisco@antonmediagroup.com

n Thursday, May 26, students of Schreiber High School participated in a national walkout to mourn the victims of the Uvdale school shooting and protest gun violence. Only two days after the horrifying and fatal shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvdale, Texas, students across the county walked out of school at noon to make their voices heard. The walkout aligned with the national organization Students Demand Action, a student-run group working to end gun violence across the country. Two juniors at Schreiber High School organized the walkout for Schreiber by creating a public Instagram page called SHS Demands Action to spread the word to their classmates. Emma Janoff and Gaia Dash successfully hosted the walkout at noon, with an estimated 600 students participating. The two students prepared speeches, conducted a moment of silence and read some information about the 19 students and three teachers killed in the Uvdale shooting. A video posted on the Schreiber High School’s Instagram page shows the two students giving their speeches to their classmates and teachers. “We are here today to not only mourn the losses…from Robb Elementary school and to show our support as a community to the town of Uvdale,” said Janoff. “But also to advocate for stricter gun laws and protest our government’s continued inaction on this issue.” “As students and minors, it is easy to feel powerless in these situations,” continued

The walkout lasted about 30 minutes.

Janoff. “We are one of the most impacted groups by gun violence, yet we are voiceless in voting…I see the impact of school shootings every day in normalized lockdown drills and school shooter protocols, a collective fear of unplanned fire drills and flinching when a bag of chips pops in the cafeteria.” “We are the politicians and leaders of the future,” said Janoff. “If we continue to excuse an action, change will never come.” After Janoff closed her speech, Dash took the megaphone to read a speech of her own. “[Gun violence] is a difficult reality to come to terms with and seemingly impossible issue,” said Dash. “But if we don’t continue to discuss it with parents, teachers and classmates, don’t continue to push for solutions and talk to our lawmakers, nothing will ever change.” The walkout was well attended by students and staff, as teachers and administrators also joined the students outside to mourn the victims and hear the speeches. School Superintendent Dr. Michael J. Hynes was in attendance and supported the passionate students.

“I’m not only proud of what [Janoff and Dash] said, but I’m proud of who was in attendance,” said Dr. Hynes. “You could hear a pin drop when they were speaking, so I was sincerely appreciative of every student and adult that was there.” Dr. Hynes commended the student organizers for their well-thought-out speeches and the time and effort put into preparing the walk-out. “When the speaking students were done, we had students talking to each other about what was said as they were re-entering the building,” said Dr. Hynes. “So I didn’t view this as an opportunity for students to miss class, I saw this as a teachable moment for students, and I think they were very inspired.” News crews reported on Schreiber’s walkout, which Dr. Hynes and the administration welcomed. A News 12 Chopper flew around filming an ariel view of the walkout for 10 minutes. “I believe what makes our high school students special is how we have prepared them to be able to articulate things they are passionate about,” said Dr. Hynes. “When you draw a line in the sand because we did,

Emma Janoff and Gaia Dash at the walkout. you will receive applause and backlash, so it takes a very brave person to stand up where you know you’re being televised.” While many schools across the country participated in the national walkout, Schreiber’s walkout stood out from the rest because of the amount of student participants. With an estimated 600 students participating, almost half of the High School student body showed support. “As we draw lines in the sand, you have to understand both sides of the equation,” said Dr. Hynes. “So not only is what they said important, but so is the life lesson of standing up for something that you believe in and understanding that maybe there are people who are not in agreeance with the way you view it.” While the gun violence issue cannot be solved overnight, seeing students take a stand and make their voices heard is important and inspiring to people of all ages. “We’re proud of what our students did and everybody else who was out there,” said Dr. Hynes. “Let’s hope the student’s voices from around the nation are heard by our Senators in Washington.”

The Baxter’s Pond Foundation Honors Former President Nancy Comer HANNAH DEVLIN portwashingtonnews@antonmediagroup.com

n May 22, the Baxter’s Pond Foundation (BPF) hosted an event honoring former President and Co-Founder Nancy Comer. As a long-time gardener herself, Comer saw the need for the foundation and helped that vision come to life. As the foundation’s co-founder, Comer played an integral role in its creation, and as its president, she was an important figure in its execution. Comer served as a president for 18 years before stepping down from the role this past January. On Jan. 1, Kim and John Keiserman took over her role, acting as the current co-presidents of the foundation. Although Comer no longer serves as BPF’s president, she still plays an active role in the foundation as a board member. The event was hosted by Chris and Laura Ficalora, long-time supporters of the foundation, at their home in Baxter Estates. It was attended by approximately 75 friends of the foundation, including elected officials who came to support and honor Comer’s contributions. There were many elected officials at the event from the state, county and town level. From the state level, Senator Anna Kaplan and Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti attended. Representing Nassau County, officials included Deputy Commissioner of Nassau County Parks, Recreation and Museums Dave Franklin (attending on behalf of Nassau County Executive Bruce Blakeman) and County Legislator Delia DeRiggiWhitton. Additionally, Town of North Hempstead Supervisor Jennifer DeSena and Town Councilwoman Mariann Dalimonte attended alongside Village of Baxter Estates Mayor Nora Haagenson, Village of Baxter Estates Deputy Mayor Charles Comer and Village of Baxter Estates Board of Trustee members Alice Peckelis, Maria Branco and Jeffrey Eluto. “From our perspective,” said John Keiserman, “one of the things that made us proudest in the organization, and what impressed us the most, was how many of those elected officials that did show up.” Not only did the officials attend the event, but they presented a multitude of honors and citations to Comer at both a state and local level. Kaplan presented a NY State Senate Proclamation, Sillitti presented a NY State Assembly Citation and Franklin (on behalf of Blakeman) and DeRiggi-Whitton

Supervisor Jen DeSena, Nancy Comer and Councilmember Mariann Dalimonte. both presented a Nassau County Citation. Additionally, DeRiggi-Whitton announced a pending resolution before Nassau County Legislature to rename the cottage in Baxter Estate’s Barbara Johnson Park to the “Nancy Comer Cottage.” DeSena presented a proclamation that Sunday, May 22, 2022 be declared as a special day of recognition for Comer throughout the Town of North Hempstead. Lastly, Haagenson presented a certificate of recognition on behalf of the Village of Baxter Estates. One of the many contributions Comer made to the foundation was the implementation of a “shorescaping project.” This project has attracted the attention of many, as it has recently received a grant from Nassau County to allow its continuation. Shorescaping aims to combat water pollution, and aid local species, with the installation of native plants. Not only would

Kim Keiserman and Nancy Comer. these plants support pollinators and other natural life, but they would also serve to catch debris, litter and chemical waste in Baxter’s Pond before it has the chance to feed into the Long Island Sound. In addition to planting native plants, the foundation hopes to remove invasive plant species. According to John Keiserman, the BPF will use “plants that are going to take well to the environment without a lot of excess artificial watering or fertilizing, that are going to provide a habitat for natural insects and bird life and that are going to help prevent soil erosion around the edge of the pond.” The project, one which Comer has spearheaded, will help the environmental health of the pond and its surrounding area. The BPF is dedicated to maintaining and beautifying the area in order to serve and engage with the community at large. In addition to honoring Comer, the event

Assemblywoman Gina Sillitti and Nancy Comer. on May 22 held a silent auction to fundraise. “What the foundation does is raise money so that we can perform certain tasks that would not necessarily get done if the county– the owner of the property–was the only one maintaining it,” said John Keiserman. The BPF continues to advocate for the environmental health and beautification of the area with the support of the community. Although Comer has stepped down as president of the BPF, her work with the foundation is not finished. She continues to serve an active role in the organization on the Board of Directors. Comer is an asset to both the foundation and the community, and the BPF–alongside state, county, town and village officials–honors her contributions.

Baxter’s Pond Foundation Awarded Grant To Continue “Shorescaping” Effort B

Beautiful native plants will mitigate water pollution and support pollinators; volunteers needed June 11

axter’s Pond Foundation (BPF), the nonprofit environmental steward of Baxter’s Pond and the surrounding Barbara Johnson Park & Preserve, is improving the effectiveness and beauty of the shoreline of Baxter’s Pond thanks to a renewal of funding from the Nassau County Soil and Water Conservation District (NCSWCD). Bordered by two highly trafficked roads, Baxter’s Pond is the catch basin for debris, runoff, litter and chemical waste from lawns and road care. Baxter’s Pond is spring-fed and flows directly into Manhasset Bay, eventually feeding Long Island Sound. The multi-year Shorescaping plan, which began in 2019, aims to prevent water pollution from reaching the Bay, increase and improve natural resources by installing native plants, and remove invasive ones. “Our vision in 2022 also is to engage with and inspire community members to appreciate the esthetic and function of native plants to reduce soil erosion and water pollution, and to support pollinators and biodiversity,”

follow BPF on Facebook. Historic Baxter’s Pond is the centerpiece of Port Washington’s Village of Baxter Estates. While the Pond and Park are owned by Nassau County, since 2004 BPF has maintained the area surrounding the Pond as well as the Park. Known for its colorful gardens planted along Shore Road and Central Drive and the seasonal flowers gracing the stone pillars at the entrance, the Park is a visual delight to all who drive by or stroll the grounds.

His life in turmoil, Kerouac sought to justify his bleak existence with a sprawling, Wolfe-like novel, The Town and The City, published in 1950. He had not jscotchie@antonmediagroup.com found his voice, but it was a start. t’s 2022 and “the twos” have it. First, the Enter Neal Cassady.

With his father’s leaves his loyal Lowell girlfriend behind for death, the young man was now saddled the glamour and glitter of New York City.

JOSEPH SCOTCHIE

Maggie is bitterly upset. The reader knows Duluoz has just given up the best thing he will ever find. Kerouac had range: Novels, poetry, journals, letters, even a Book of Dreams. He had influence. Did The Beatles come from The Beats? Bob Dylan and other rock stars sang his praises, giving the man exposure to younger generations. Kerouac left behind a lifetime of great reading. It could have been more. Why couldn’t he follow Ginsberg and John Clellon Holmes into the university profession? Kerouac would have made a fine writer-in-residence. For years, the man had wanted to write a history of the Civil War. His wasteful ways prevented that. Shelby Foote was also a novelist. Consider his three-volume classic. Kerouac could have lent his prodigious talents to the American Iliad. One final influence was John Updike. When On The Road came out, the young Updike penned a satire of the novel in The New Yorker. His second novel, Rabbit Run, was a rebuttal to On The Road. Updike’s protagonist, Harry “Rabbit” Angstrom, runs, Dean Moriarty-like, from a wife and young child. While Rabbit is an absent father, his young daughter dies in a bathtub accident. See where an irresponsible lifestyle gets you?

In fairness, On The Road ends with resolutions. Dean finds happiness with his new bride and heads back to the West Coast. Sal Paradise, the Kerouac-stand in, is set to live the life of a Manhattan literati. For both men, the middle-class beckons. In his novels, Updike fed off Kerouac’s energetic prose. With Rabbit, he created the quintessential postwar American hero. He might have done so without On The Road, but the influence sure didn’t hurt.

BLI, a Long Island-based recreational volleyball organization for teenagers and adults, is elated to announce the first annual Grass Volleyball Pride Festival, a.k.a “PrideFest,” will take place on June 11 at Eisenhower Park in East Meadow. Originally scheduled to take place in June 2020, PrideFest had been twice-delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Volleyball enthusiasts, the LGBTQ+ community and its allies are invited to compete in the all-day charity tournament featuring Men’s, Women’s and CoEd Doubles, plus Gender Neutral Quads, offered in a variety of skill levels. The $50 from each doubles team and $100 from each quads team’s registration fees will be donated to PFY (formerly Pride For Youth), a division of the Long Island Crisis Center whose mission is to enhance the health and wellness of the LGBTQ community through education, supportive services and personal development in Nassau, Suffolk and Queens counties. “PrideFest has been a long-time coming and reflects the volleyball community’s

altruism and diversity, especially in regards to sexuality and gender,” VBLI’s Founder and Managing Director Glenn Yankow said. “Collaborating with PFY has been a pleasure and we’re as inspired as ever to create a fun, memorable tournament, one to keep improving upon for years to come.” On-site vendors will be announced at a later date, will enhance the patron experience and donate additional proceeds. The goal is to host more than 200 volleyball players from Long Island and the surrounding areas, raising more than $5,000 for PFY. “We’re deeply grateful to VBLI for including us in this unique event held during Pride Month,” PFY Director Devon Zappasodi said. “There is a lot of work to be done in the fight for LGBTQ+ rights and equality in the area of athletics, but PrideFest is a nice indication of the progress that has been made.” Registration for PrideFest is open now; go to www.vbli.com for more information. –Submitted by VBLI

EAC Network Board Of Directors Elects John Durso Board Of Directors Chairperson

he EAC Network, a $30 million dollar non-profit agency that helps 54,000 people in need throughout Long Island and New York City, is pleased to announce the election of John R. Durso as the new chairperson of the board of directors. Since 1999, Durso has served as the president of Local 338, RWDSU/UFCW which represents more than 13,000 men and women working in New York City, Long Island, Westchester, Putnam and Hudson counties, as well as into New Jersey. Local 338’s members include supermarket and drug store employees, health care workers, pharmacists, delivery workers, dairy workers, and employees at warehouses and numerous other retail food services.

Neela Mukherjee Lockel, EAC Network’s president and chief executive officer, said, “We are excited to have John as our new chairperson.

As we emerge from COVID-19 stronger and ready to respond to the evolving needs and priorities of our communities, we are grateful to have John help us share

the challenging but important work it does to better the lives of struggling individuals, which mimics my experience in the union to empower our members. After recognizing this parallel, I knew that it was an agency that I wanted to be a part of and I aim to help in any way I can.” Lockel added, “The EAC Network is in a pro-growth mode and John will work with our board, our elected officials, community and private partners to help EAC grow. We begin John’s tenure as chair with a renewed sense of purpose, a strong sense of confidence in the value and impact of our service and a commitment to forging ahead to continue to serve with ‘Excellence in Action’ for all of our communities. “ “For the EAC Network, growth means seeing and helping more people,” Durso added.

curriculum in regards to U.S. history, gender and sexual orientation. But now those same people are going to trust those teachers with a gun around their children? Scanning gun enthusiast websites, like the Firearm Industry Trade Association, it is said that AR-15s, the ArmaLite rifle, are used for hunting, target practice and shooting competitions. But the AR-15 style weapon has been used in the shooting at Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida that killed 17, the Las Vegas shooting that killed 59, the Sutherland Springs church shooting that killed 26, the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando that killed 49, the San Bernardino shooting in California that killed 14 and, the one that brings tears to my eyes when I think of it just like the most recent shooting, the Sandy Hook Elementary School shooting in Connecticut that killed 26, including 20 children between the ages of 6 and 7-years-old. These numbers don’t even count the injured and the traumatized. Now, I understand the importance of the Second Amendment. I support it, in fact. But, historically speaking, any time something has been responsible for multiple deaths, we look for ways to make sure tragedy doesn’t strike again. When it comes to the First Amendment, free speech

and religion, threats do not fall under that category. We don’t consider Jim Jones’ Peoples Temple or Heaven’s Gate something that should be accepted because of freedom of religion. In 2016, Peter Rhee, a trauma surgeon at the University of Arizona, told Wired when comparing the damage an AR-15 can do compared to a 9mm handgun to the human body, that “One looks like a grenade went off in there. The other looks like a bad knife cut.” In what world do we allow 18-year-olds to buy two AR-15s and 375 rounds without even a background check or training when we require them to take a test to receive a permit, attend driving school and then take a road test for a driver’s license? To get a U.S. passport, it takes months between the application, the fee, the visit to the post office and the month or two it takes for the passport to be processed. Are we really okay with more regulations in order to leave the country than owning a deadly weapon that’s been proven the weapon of choice in mass causality events? Is that where we are? Is this the reality we’re going to accept? We all know that it’s time for gun responsibility in this country. Let’s do something about it.

pump, through the hose, into my car. I thought, “What if I let my angers flow through the nozzle into the tank?” Of course in some ways that was stupid. Filling my tank with anger wasn’t really doing anything to make a difference in the world. But on the other hand, it started to make a difference internally. Anger is a secondary emotion. A primary emotion is what is felt immediately before we feel angry. We always feel something else first before we get angry. We might

first feel afraid, attacked, offended, disrespected, forced, trapped or pressured. If any of these feelings are intense enough, we think of the emotion as anger. So my recognition that I felt insignificant in the face of the world’s violence gave me a clue as to why the anger was building within me. Anger always seeks some form of release. Sometimes it leads to actual physical violence. Sometimes to verbal violence. Sometimes, if it is not released, it bottles up, causing internal destruction in our bodies. Sometimes, bottled up anger leads to depression, which is often the flip side of anger. Healthy release of anger can include physical exercise, artistic expression, appropriately expressing our feelings with others, and—as I discovered—pumping gas. As odd is it sounds, as I experienced the anger flowing out of me into the gas tank, I felt some release. What I was really doing was letting my imagination deal with the anger in a new creative way. You might think that with a tank full of anger

The Anger Pump Recently I discovered a cheap form of anger therapy while paying a high price for one of suburbia’s necessities. I was at the gas station filling my tank with expensive gasoline and resenting the daily increase in gas prices. My anger wasn’t merely about the cost of fuel, but it was connected to my distress at the war against Ukraine that not simply contributed to the current price situation, but that ruined so many lives of so many families. This was needless violence that also reached into my wallet. Then came more anger—not connected at all to gas prices—when shoppers upstate were murdered by a racist gunman. Then we heard of the murder of children and their teachers in Texas. I felt so helpless and insignificant because there was nothing I could do to stop the runaway violence that is plaguing our world. I was angry about my lack of ability to fix this. As I was pumping away at the gas station, I looked at the gas nozzle in my hand. I had pulled its trigger and could feel the flow from the

my driving would turn aggressive. But it didn’t. Somehow I felt an energy that propelled me toward my destination. I felt freer. Being freed from disturbing emotions can certainly help us in the areas of life where we have control. Instead of taking my anger out on the beloved readers of this column by ranting and raving over what I don’t like, instead of letting the anger poison my preaching, instead of becoming cantankerous with people in my life, I could be free to look for ways to be life-supporting. I could consider how I’m meant to be a healer of life’s wounds and look for the opportunities to walk with folks who are suffering from their own angers, frustrations and lack of power in difficult situations. I don’t know how long this metaphor will serve me. But while it does, I hope to increase the number of miles I get by letting the anger flow out. Your miles may vary.

COVER STORY

Tip Sheet: Good Health In Later Life For Older Men

mericans are living longer than ever, but American men still aren’t living as long as American women. The average life expectancy for men in the U.S. is now roughly 75 years. For women, it’s more than 80. Exactly why men are shorter-lived than women isn’t entirely clear. Even in infancy boys run a higher risk of dying than girls, and researchers aren’t sure why. However, research suggests that a leading reason for the “longevity gap” between men and women is that men don’t take care of themselves as well as women do. For example, surveys have found that women are much more likely to have a regular healthcare provider, and to see their provider within the course of the year, than men are. Men are also more likely to engage in “risky” behaviors—like smoking and drinking heavily—than women. Experts agree that by taking better care of themselves, men can increase their odds of living healthier, longer lives.

Tips for Older Men

See your healthcare provider regularly. Even if you feel perfectly healthy, you should see your provider at least once a year for a checkup. Call or see your healthcare provider when you’re feeling sick. Surveys find that men are less likely than women to see a healthcare provider when they’re not feeling well. In one survey, 40 percent of men said that, if they were sick, they would delay seeking medical care for a few days. Seventeen percent said they would wait “at least a week.” Prompt medical care can make a big difference—sometimes, the difference between life and death. Don’t wait. Take medications, vitamins, and supplements only as directed. When you visit your provider, bring either all of the pills you take, or a complete list of these that notes the doses you take, and how often you take them. Include medicines, vitamins, herbs and supplements (even those you buy in the store without a prescription). Why? Because the longer you live, and the more medicines you take, the more likely you are to experience some side effects, even from medicines bought over-thecounter at the pharmacy. Your provider should check all of your pills to make sure they’re safe for you to take, and that they don’t interact in harmful ways. Always check with your provider, or your pharmacist, before taking any new medicines of any kind. Take all medicines as directed, and tell your provider right away if a medication or other pill seems to be causing any problems or side effects. Get your shots! Check with your healthcare provider to make sure you’re getting: • A flu shot—every year in September or October before the flu season starts. • The shingles (herpes zoster) vaccine—once when 60 or older. • A combination tetanus/diphtheria booster shot—every 10 years. • Pneumonia vaccination—once after age 65 (your healthcare provider may suggest that

Screening, or checking, for early signs of certain health problems can help diagnose them early. The following screening approaches are generally recommended for older men; ask your healthcare provider if they’re right for you. Bone health evaluation: Periodically. Your healthcare provider should evaluate your risk of osteoporosis, or “thinning of the bones.” (It’s not just a woman’s disease.) Your healthcare provider should evaluate your risk and possibly recommend further testing. Remember: exercise strengthens the bones at any age. Blood pressure check: At least once a year.

Diagnosis Is Key To Cure

epatitis C is a virus that affects the liver and can cause chronic liver disease and cirrhosis. It is usually without symptoms and is only diagnosed when a specific hepatitis C test is ordered. Once diagnosed, hepatitis C can be cured with simple, easy to take medications. Hepatitis C affects about one percent of the population of the United States. Despite the ease of diagnosis and treatment, many people affected by this virus remain untreated and at risk for the development of cirrhosis and liver cancer. Diagnosis is key to disease cure and elimination. The main risk factors for hepatitis C include intravenous drug use, intranasal cocaine use, blood and blood product transfusions prior to 1992, unregulated tattooing and health care related needle stick injuries. The past decade has seen a significant rise in new cases of hepatitis C in young people due to the opioid use epidemic. Sexual transmission of hepatitis C is uncommon but can occur in men who have sex with men. In years past, screening for hepatitis C was recommended for any person with hepatitis C risk factors. This approach was highly unsuccessful in uncovering a significant number of people with hepatitis C. Because of this, the screening recommendations were changed to add screening for all people born between

1945 to 1965 as well continuing to screen people with risk factors. This approach identified some patients but for the most part, these recommendations were not followed and this approach was also unsuccessful in identifying large numbers of infected people. This led to the current recommendation that all people over the age 18 and anyone, regardless of age, with risk factors be evaluated for hepatitis C. Unfortunately, these recommendations are not widely followed and most people with hepatitis C remain undiagnosed. The hepatitis C epidemic can only be eliminated if these screening recommendations are followed. This requires health care provider awareness and education regarding the importance of hepatitis C and patient awareness and involvement to ask providers for the hepatitis C blood test.

The second component of solving the hepatitis C crisis is linking newly diagnosed patients to a provider that will provide the curative treatments. Hepatitis C treatment cures 98 to 99 percent of infected people, regardless of disease stage. These therapies can be given to both children and adults. Treatment consists of pills that are given either once a day for twelve weeks or three times a day for either eight or 12 weeks, depending on the genotype or subtype of the virus. These therapies are well tolerated with minimal to no side effects. They are affordable and covered by all insurances in New York State. They can be provided by a primary care provider, gastroenterologist, or

infectious disease specialist. Cure of hepatitis C is defined as having no detectable virus in the blood at a minimum of twelve weeks after completing the treatment regimen. With the rise in hepatitis C cases being seen amongst our youth and young adults, it is imperative that patients be aware of this condition and ask to be tested and that health care providers test all patients at least once for this condition and then link patients with hepatitis C to providers who will provide treatment. Only if these two conditions are met will we be able to eliminate hepatitis C from our population. —David Bernstein, MD, MACG, FAASLD, AGAF, FACP

Medical Research Foundation Gets New Name

long with Marty and Barbara Sass, Dr. Frank Arena has been a co-founder, president and director of research for the past 36 years at the Sass Foundation for Medical Research. It was only befitting with his dedication, “fire in the belly,” unending dedication and tireless efforts on behalf of this charitable foundation that the co-founders changed the name to The SASS-ARENA Foundation for Medical Research, Inc. to include their partner, friend and most respected medical oncologist, Arena. “We could not have done it without him,” said the Sasses. After a two-year hiatus, no thanks to COVID, The SASS-ARENA Foundation returned to the glorious venue of Guastavinos in Manhattan with their sold-out gala. They are back with a vengeance, a passion and a commitment that they will never forget all those that are fighting for their lives against the biggest bully of all—cancer. The gala had the distinct privilege of having a group of honorees that epitomize all that is good and courageous in their specific fields and in the world. Stacy Fischer-Rosenthal received this year’s Courage Award. Not only is she a brilliant businesswoman but a true

role model on how a person could turn a personal tragedy into a passion and a commitment that could impact the lives of so many people. She has been an award recipient at the American Cancer Society’s Taste of Hope Gala and the Breast Cancer & Survivorship Award in the 21st Century honor. She is an advocate for all those men and women who fear the evil spell of breast cancer and what it can do against them and their family. Dr. Robert Grossman, dean of the NYU Grossman Medical College was the medical honoree. His vision along with Ken Langone, has transformed the NYU Grossman Medical College into a fully scholarship school. This award was named after a member of the foundation’s board, Dr. Franco Muggia, a giant in the field of oncology and one of the founding fathers of the specialty. Last but not least, the humanitarian honor went to two men who have spent the past 20 years making a huge difference. John Feal, first responder and president of Feel Good Foundation suffered the blows and trauma of 9/11. He has endured 35 surgeries to correct what he suffered on that tragic day. He, along with Jon Stewart, fought tirelessly to protect anyone that

Martin Sass, Chairman & co-founder; Barbara R. Sass, co-founder; and Dr. Francis P. Arena, President and co-founder. Source sassfoundation.org came in contact with the horror of 9/11. Feal introduced the foundation to Michael Barasch. Barasch is an attorney who has spent these last decades fighting tirelessly for all those that lost loved ones, or became afflicted by illnesses associated with this disaster. Barasch helped to register many dozens of cancers and illnesses that exposure to the toxins released by the fall of

the Twin Towers had caused. The SASS-ARENA Foundation for Medical Research commitment runs true despite COVID, war, politics or anything that may try to take attention away from their motto “together we will make a difference.” —SASS-ARENA Foundation for Medical Research

There is a lot of things that I don’t For the past know personally, but that I felt through the decade, the duo music. Instead of being isolated to a few of Schultz and countries, this is the whole world now. It’s Jeremiah Fraites a very strange, relatable thing. Part of the have been the goal of the record, at least subconsciously, constants in The is to try to write an album that describes the Lumineers (cellist/ pain without getting so caught in the weeds vocalist Neyla Pekarek was in the band in using the words quarantine or pandemfrom 2010-18) carving out a niche for itself ic.

pop music. “Even though I didn’t think that song was going to resonate the way it does. I just thought it was interesting to my ear,” he recalled. “It had to come from some place other than trying to please someone. I’ve been to BMI Awards where people collect awards for these songs and half the time, you never heard of the song and there are 12 or 15 writers that go up and collect trophies because I guess they generated money. Half the time, those guys don’t even like what they wrote. They just know that it’s catchy. Isn’t it better to just write stuff that you care about? So for me, there’s this element of people asking about the 10th anniversary of our first record and how that feels and what does that mean? And most of it is that we got to make stuff the way we liked it on our own terms. One of the things that I learned the more that I make music is to get out of your own way and to hold on to some level of your own innocence. You’re not just creating new instruments and making up new chords. You’re finding yourself not quite sure of what you’re doing. It’s funny to even evaluate things when they come out because in a lot of ways, my favorite record is something it took me a while [to come around to]. All of a sudden, it’s on heavy rotation the rest of my life. The transcendence of all this is a really funny thing. It’s like a mystical thing. That word alchemy comes to mind.” That straightforward simplicity comes across in spades on Brightside, whether it’s the opening title track that uses a cadence reminiscent of Tom Petty’s “Don’t Come

Around Here No More” while Schultz implores that, “I’ll be your brightside, baby, tonight” or providing reassurances during uncertain times amid bare bones piano accompaniment and just a hint of strings amid the optimistic vibe of “Where We Are.” Both songs have provided a degree of comfort to the band’s fan base, who have shared their feelings on social media. “Ironically, a lot of parents, whether its people I don’t know that are posting it or parents that I know personally—so many have sent me images of their kids singing ‘Where We Are’ or ‘Brightside,’” Schultz shared. “But particularly ‘Where We Are’ and they’re singing, ‘Where we are/I don’t know where we are’ and it’s these little kids, most of whom don’t even know words yet and they’re mouthing these words. That for me is very exciting to see. It’s like tapping into some kind of universal power.” Suffice it to say that the creative restlessness that defined so much of how Brightside came out will be a driving force of what the Lumineers will bring to the stage on this upcoming tour. “We have four albums out and we have to cut songs now and that’s a good feeling,” Schultz said. “We can actually put on a show that has no fat. As a band, we’re most excited to play. Not pulling a rabbit out of our hat, but having, from start to finish, moments [where fans] won’t want to leave, grab a beer or take a leak. You want to just be there. I got to see Tom Petty during his Wildflowers Tour and I forgot how many songs he wrote. I would never compare us to him, but in that feeling, I want people to leave hopefully saying, ‘I forgot how many songs they wrote,’ even just four albums in.” The Lumineers will be appearing on June 17 and June 18 at Forest Hills Tennis Stadium, 1 Tennis Place, Forest Hills.

Heat Awareness

PSEG Long Island is prepared to meet the increased electrical demand that high temperatures bring, reminding customers to properly protect themselvers during the high heat days of summer. During extreme heat conditions, customers should: • Stay hydrated by drinking plenty of water. Avoid drinks with caffeine or alcohol. • Avoid wearing dark colors. Dark colors absorb the sun’s rays. • Never leave children or pets alone in enclosed vehicles. • Avoid overexertion during work or exercise, especially between 11 a.m. and 6 p.m. Customers on qualifying life-support equipment can register for the PSEG Long Island Critical Care Program to receive enhanced notifications from the company. During severe weather, registered customers will receive additional outreach from PSEG Long Island. Customers who rely on such equipment are responsible for planning ahead to meet medical needs in the event of a power outage. If power is lost, every effort will be made to restore it as soon as possible. Participation in the Critical Care Program does not guarantee priority power restoration. To register, call 1-800-490-0025. High temperatures can also lead to higher energy use, resulting in higher electric bills. To help save energy and money this summer, PSEG Long Island offers the following tips to customers: • Do not cool an empty house. Set your thermostat higher when you are away, or use a smart thermostat to control the temperature in your home. • Seal holes and cracks around doors and windows with caulk or weather-stripping. • Replace air filters monthly. Dirty filters make your air conditioner work harder. • Operate appliances in the morning or evening when it is cooler outside. • Set refrigerators and freezers to the most efficient temperatures.

• Replace old appliances with new, energy efficient ENERGY STAR appliances. • Close blinds and draperies facing the sun to keep out the sun’s heat. • Ceiling fans cool fast and cost less than air conditioning. (In hot weather, set your ceiling fan to spin quickly, counterclockwise to push air downward toward the floor.) Extreme temperatures and high electric demand can sometimes cause scattered, heat-related outages. Customers can prepare by keeping PSEG Long Island’s contact information handy. During extreme heat, PSEG Long Island will have additional personnel available to address outages safely and as quickly as possible. Stay connected: • Download the PSEG Long Island mobile app to report outages and receive information on restoration times, crew locations and more. • Report an outage and receive status updates by texting OUT to PSEGLI (773454). You can also report your outage through PSEG Long Island’s app, its website at www.psegliny.com/outages or with your voice using the Amazon Alexa or Google Assistant app on your smartphone. • To report an outage or downed wire call PSEG Long Island’s 24-hour Electric Service number: 800-490-0075. • Follow PSEG Long Island on Facebook and Twitter to report an outage and for updates before, during and after the storm. • Visit PSEG Long Island’s MyPower map (www.mypowermap.psegliny.com) for the latest in outage info, restoration times and crew locations across Long Island.

‘Senior Prom’ To Unite Senior Cats (8+ Years) And Potential T

Senior citizen adopters at newly renovated cat sanctuary

he Patricia H. Ladew Foundation, Inc., a cat rescue, sanctuary and adoption organization, will showcase its innovative Seniors for Seniors program on Saturday, June 11 from noon to 5 p.m. in a clever “Senior Prom” themed event. Staff and volunteers of the Ladew Cat Sanctuary will be on hand to give guided tours of the newly renovated Victorian home in which the cats reside. Thanks to a very generous donation to the Ladew Seniors for Seniors program from long-time supporter Jordan Salvit, co-founder of KitNipBox, the subscription box for cat toys and treats, the Ladew Foundation will announce at the event that it will be expanding the Seniors for Seniors program. Going forward: • The age for eligible cats will be reduced from 10 years old to eight. • The foundation has partnered with a growing list of veterinarians in Nassau, Queens, Brooklyn, Westchester and New Jersey to allow senior adopters to see participating veterinarians closer to home. To date the program has placed about 40 cats, 10 or more years old, with senior citizen adopters, with the benefit that the foundation will continue to pay all reasonable medical expenses for the cat at the shelter’s clinic in Oyster Bay. Additionally, senior cats may return to the sanctuary if circumstances change in the adopter’s life. This has enabled older community members to enjoy the benefits of pet ownership, which can include

redesigned Cat Sanctuary, planned and executed by Square Paws design team and Gerwald Construction, LLC. The major renovation was made possible by a bequest from a generous donor. The redesign of the cats’ living room, kitchen and recreation room features a whimsical retro theme in a nod to Patricia H. Ladew, the Long Island heiress who purchased the home for Oyster Bay’s stray cats back in 1975. The main event will be outdoors under a tent; masks will be required for all individuals who go indoors. The renovation has enhanced the home for the cats’ enjoyment and comfort while also creating a fun environment for people to come, meet up to 100 cats, and adopt. It includes cat-friendly furniture, fun and sustainable cat towers that are easy to clean with replaceable parts, eliminating the need to replace them over Cats like Simba are among the the months and years of use. residents up for adoption at the Ladew The Seniors for Seniors “Senior Prom” Cat Sanctuary’s will be on hand to give event will take place on the Patricia guided tours of the newly renovated H.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20). A little discomfort is part of the learning process; too much defeats the purpose because later you’ll end up right back where you’re started just to get some relief. The ideal environment offers security but is not so cushy you end up soft. You’re like Goldilocks this week; you’ll try things until you find the “just right” zone.

GEMINI (May 21-June 21). Give-and-take relationships won’t work that well this week. It’s the taking that’s the problem. Whereas givers can only give until supply runs out, takers don’t know when to stop. When one supply stops, they’ll move to the next and the next. Seek clearly defined working arrangements and avoid ambiguous relationships.

Solution: 25 Letters

CANCER (June 22-July 22). You’re a self-directed person, doing things for your own reasons. Some won’t be able to appreciate your efforts, only because they have never contributed thusly and cannot relate. Continue undaunted. Though you don’t need it, eventually you will be acknowledged by those who understand what you do.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). The ones flashing wealth or flexing authority are often advertising how new it is to them and how much they need external things for validation. The power move is not to show off your energy but to hold it like the sun does, thus being the great magnet that others can orbit around and grow toward. SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). Resist the pressure to focus on one thing. Only you know when you’re ready to specialize; you’ll feel it. It is typical for creative minds like yours to try a wide array of endeavors. Fill your wells of inspiration with whatever interests you. Ultimately, your work will be enhanced by the breadth of your studies. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21). Compliments are much easier to give than constructive criticism. So you actually consider it more of a compliment when people are brave, honest and thoughtful enough to do the harder work of applying their critical mind to an assessment. You appreciate the value of critique and will apply it to great effect. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19). Your development is a co-creation between the world and you. The world asks you to play a role, and you’ll apply your mind to building it uniquely. Imitation will be part of your process, but you’ll quickly outgrow the need to match yourself to an example. You’ll become your own example. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18). The “no guts, no glory” approach worked for you in the past, but these days you’re not after glory, so you take things in a different direction. “No guts, no fun” is the adage that keeps your week humming with excitement, risk, silliness and unforgettable moments of shared glee. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). The obstacle between you and what you want is caused by misunderstanding, differences in ideology and generational clashes. A breakthrough will require tolerance. The key is offering the benefit of the doubt, seeking understanding and deciding not to take offense.

THIS WEEK’S BIRTHDAYS

A playful energy lights up your relationships. It’s as though you and your loved ones have passes to a secret amusement park where you can go and have fun together no matter what else is happening in the world. You’ll sharpen your leadership skills as you take charge of a mission. You’ll enjoy this better when your tenure is short. Get in, make the change that will serve all and then hand the baton to the next person. Upgrades to the home environment will be health-enhancing. COPYRIGHT 2022 CREATORS.COM

You can’t see declarer’s cards when you’re a defender, but it is often possible to visualize them almost as if they were faceup on the table. The relevant inferences may be drawn from either the bidding or the play, but usually it is necessary to examine both of these areas. Consider this case where East had to make a crucial decision at trick one. West led the ten of diamonds, on which declarer played dummy’s jack, and East had to decide

whether the diamond lead was a singleton or a doubleton. If East decides that the ten is a singleton, he should take the jack with the ace and return a diamond for West to ruff. If East had done this in the actual deal, South would have made the contract easily, losing only a spade, a diamond and a club. But East donned his thinking cap and decided that the lead was almost surely a doubleton. Accordingly, he signaled with the seven of diamonds instead of taking the ace. When West later gained the lead with the king of trump, he returned a diamond to East’s ace and ruffed the diamond return to put the contract down one. East knew from the bidding that declarer had four spades and four hearts. (North’s two-club bid was Stayman, asking South to bid a four-card major suit if he had one, and South had bid both.) It followed that South could not have four diamonds, since that would mean he had opened one notrump with a singleton club. West’s lead therefore had to be a doubleton, and the best chance of stopping the contract was to proceed on the assumption that West could gain the lead before all the trumps were drawn and could then secure his diamond ruff.

Schreiber’s Baseball Season Ends After Trip To Quarterfinals

fter struggling out of the gates, Schreiber’s baseball team put together a strong end to the season to make the playoffs. The boys finished the regular season with a 6-9 record, making them the eighth-seeded team in the Nassau County AA tournament. The Vikings needed a run of wins to end their year with a strong enough record to qualify for the playoffs. Schreiber had a tough schedule to begin the year, facing Massapequa and Farmingdale for the first six games, the first and second-best teams in Nassau County this year. They dropped all six games to these teams. Next, the boys matched up against Syosset, a much more beatable team. In game one, our Vikings jumped out to an early lead and were up 3-1 entering the fourth inning. Syosset stormed back, scoring three, and handing Port a seventh straight loss. The second game of the series took place at Schreiber. After five scoreless innings from both pitchers, the Vikings finally broke through on a bunt single by Sophomore Anthony Iuorio in the sixth. They scored two more in the inning, and Senior Michael Andrew would complete his gem in the seventh, leading to a 3-1 victory. Andrew threw one of the best games of the year, striking out ten and only allowing two hits with one unearned run. The final game of the series was a rough one for Schreiber-a 9-4 loss-where, four errors spelled defeat for the boys. After defeating Mineola in a non-league contest in Port’s Coaches vs. Cancer game, the Vikings needed to lock in to have a chance at the playoffs. At 1-8, they were tied in last place with Freeport and needed to leapfrog Oceanside to take the fourth seed in the conference to reach the playoffs. Facing these two teams to end the season gave Schreiber a chance to control their destiny. The first game against Freeport was a quick victory, a 10-0 win that ended after five innings due to a mercy rule. Andrew pitched another gem, striking out ten

again and only allowing one hit in a complete-game shutout. Sophomore Parker Workman led the charge offensively, going 1-2 with two runs batted in and two runs. Game two was a much closer one; the Vikings led 5-4, entering the top of the seventh. Iuorio came through with a clutch two-run double to extend the lead to 7-4, and Port would eventually take home a 9-4 win thanks to a strong relief performance from Sophomore Hunter Trenaman. Looking to complete the sweep, Schreiber again would travel to Freeport and trailed 3-2 in the top of the sixth. After tying the game on an error, Junior Jack Robinson would put the team ahead 5-3 with a two-run double. Senior Will Chu would close out the game, and the boys

took home a 5-4 victory, pushing their record to 4-8. By sweeping Freeport, Schreiber set up a key series against Oceanside. It was essentially the playoffs for both teams, as the winner of the three-game set would make the playoffs, and the loser would see an end to their season. Winning game one would be key, especially with their ace on the mound. Andrew once again shut down his opponents, striking out eleven in a five-inning complete-game shutout, leading the Vikings to a 10-0 win. Andrew’s stellar performance cemented his season as one of Schreiber’s best, but there was still work to be done. Traveling to Oceanside, the Vikings had a chance to spoil the Sailor’s Senior Day by eliminating them from the playoffs. After falling 5-0 in the first inning, the boys would storm back to take an 8-5 lead in the fourth. Oceanside would come back to tie the game in the seventh and then walked off the game in extras, setting up a win-or-go-home game for both teams to end the regular season. In the final game of the regular season, Schreiber held their own Senior Day, honoring the ten players that will be

graduating in the coming weeks. After the festivities, the Vikings needed to lock-in. It took some time for the boys to refocus, evidenced by the first-inning home run that gave Oceanside a 2-0 lead early. After a scoreless first inning, Senior Danny Alexander stepped up to the plate in what could have been his last game as a Viking. In a 3-2 count, Alexander crushed a home run to right field, giving Port a 3-2 lead. Junior Ryan Gawley would extend the lead with a two-run single later in the inning, part of his 5-RBI day. After another 2-run home run by Oceanside, another single by Gawley would drive in another run to make the score 6-4. With two outs in the fifth, after strong pitching performances from Chu and Sophomore Jeffery Radinsky, Andrew came into the game with a chance to secure a playoff spot for the Vikings. He retired each of the seven batters he faced, and Port took a 10-4 win and clinched the playoffs. The county playoffs opened in Plainview, where Schreiber would have to face the top seed in Nassau County. After a tough 4-1 loss in game one, the boys would fall again in game two, ending the strong season. While the season ended earlier than most players hoped, it was still a successful spring, especially after the troublesome start to the year. Andrew’s strong pitching performances were a key to this turnaround. He finished the year with a 0.98 ERA and 60 strikeouts, leading him to be unanimously voted All-Conference and the AA-1 Conference Pitcher of the Year. Another key player in the Vikings’ turnaround was Robinson. He ended the year batting .450 with a home run, and was named an all-league player. These two award-winners were the driving force behind Port’s playoff appearance. Now that the 2022 season is over, Schreiber’s baseball team will prepare for the 2023 season. Returning many of their starters, the team is confident that next season will be even stronger than this one.

Working hard for you because everyone deserves the right home.

Night In White

The annual summer gala to benefit The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs is on Thursday, July 21 JULIE PRISCO jprisco@antonmediagroup.com

very summer, The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs host the Night In White to commemorate another year of progress in the autism community. The partner organizations offer pre-vocational training, an introduction to the world of work and productive experiences in the community to autistic individuals. The organization honors individuals and/ or groups that have positively impacted the autism community at the gala. For the 11th Night In White, Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi and PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP (PWC) are being honored for their dedication and work for The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs. Co-Founders Stella Spanakos and Nichole Sugrue worked to build The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs as a welcoming and beneficial program for autistic adults. When Spanakos’ husband Paul tragically passed away from a heart attack, Spanakos channeled her grief into creating The Nicholas Center with her long-time friend Sugrue. Before the passing of her husband, Spanakos and her husband began to talk about their son Nicholas and his future as someone on the autism spectrum. Spanakos didn’t like what she saw in the programs she was researching and was very concerned about what they would do. This concern inspired conversations about creating a program for kids like Nicholas to “teach them the skills they needed and support them in employment,” said Spanakos. After researching businesses that individuals on the autism spectrum would thrive in, Spanakos and Sugrue came across t-shirt printing. After that, Spanakos’ barn was transformed into a studio where her son Nicholas and his classmates would come down for a couple of hours a day to learn and work. Spanakos and Sugrue worked to create and finalize plans, programming and instructions for The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs. In Greek Orthodox tradition, a formal mourning period is a year. So for the year following Spanakos’ husband’s death, she wore black every day. On June 7, 2011, the year long mourning period was over and Spanakos no longer wore black. The change in clothing inspired her and Sugrue to plan Night In White to fundraise for their newly formed organizations and honor the memory of Spanakos’ husband. “We needed to buy an awful lot of equipment to get the building up and going,” said Spanakos. “The first Night In White was in

Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi with their three sons. (Contributed photo) honor and memory of my husband, so from that point on, we do it every year with everyone dressed in white. It’s a great tradition where we can honor a family that has been instrumental in helping us along the journey.” When talking about honoring Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi, Spanakos said that “they’ve really stepped up to the plate and been there from the beginning. They understood what I wanted and what we would embark on for our children.” Bianca and Rob DeGaudenzi have three sons together, and when their son Nicholas who is on the autism spectrum, began school, they were introduced to Spanakos. The family lives in Manhasset, and their kids went to the Manhasset Public School District, which has a Parent Association for Special Education Families (PASE). When Bianca and Rob’s son joined the school district, Bianca found PASE and went to a meeting, where she met the group’s president, Spanakos. “The next generation of moms was coming along, and autism was becoming a vocabulary word for them,” said Spanakos. “Then in walks to the meeting Bianca who had a son named Nicholas, just like mine, and she becomes a member of PASE. She was there when we were developing and expanding the

special education program for the school.” Bianca joined the organization and looked to the parents that came before her for guidance, as it was her first experience with a child in special education. “At that time, Stella was the president, and I was so happy to join that organization because she was another parent with a son with autism, like mine,” said Bianca. “I feel like I was kind of following in her footsteps; she was paving the way for students like my son.” Since Spanakos’ son has aged out of the system, Bianca has played a more significant role in PACE. She was the president for several years and is “currently the treasurer to allow other people the opportunity to step up,” said Bianca. Bianca and Rob’s son began going to The Nicholas Center part-time, doing a half-day at school and a few hours at The Nicholas Center. “[Our son] is so happy at the Nicholas Center, and he thrives around their incredible team of dedicated and passionate people,” said Bianca. “He is happy to go every day, and we are happy he is close by and a part of an amazing community of people.” Now, Nicholas is full-time at The Nicholas Center, and the more time he has spent there, the more Bianca and Rob got involved. “I asked Rob to be on the board of

Spectrum Designs Foundation,” said Spanakos. “He works for PWC and is brilliant in a lot of the financial planning and other business aspects.” Rob feels he came onto the board at a perfect time, as he was ready to become more actively engaged in working with the autism community. As a partner with PWC, Rob has a tax and accounting background in business-oriented issues. “I took a spot on Spectrum’s board right before COVID-19 hit in 2020,” said Rob. “During that time, there were many challenges and issues facing businesses. It was exciting to join [Spectrum Design’s] great board and play a role in working through some of the issues that came from the challenges during COVID-19.” Rob explained PWC’s pro-bono program, where the company allows its people to dedicate their time to various non-profit initiatives. Spectrum Designs needed to develop a strategic business plan, so Rob was able to put together a team of four business consultants from PWC to do various interviews, data gathering, and analysis to help create the five-year business plan. The team has recently taken on The Nicholas Center in a similar project to look at its business model and evaluate its strategic comparatives. “I’ve been very involved with Spectrum on the board and with The Nicholas Center in this project,” said Rob. “It has allowed me the chance to get underneath the hood and see the workings of The Nicholas Center to have a whole new appreciation for them and the tremendous value that they provide.” While Spanakos expresses her gratitude for this “dynamic couple,” the DeGaudenzi’s feel the same gratefulness for her and The Nicholas Center. “From my perspective, she’s honoring us, but we should really be honoring her for all she has done,” said Bianca. “[The Nicholas Center and Spectrum Designs] are truly world-class organizations,” said Rob. “I’ve worked with some of the largest companies in the world, and I see the way these two organizations run, and it is truly amazing. Everyone who works there is so excited to be there and show up.” The Night In White will be held at the North Hempstead Country Club in Port Washington on Thursday, July 21 from 6:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. Ticket and sponsorship opportunities will be available soon; for more information, contact Alessandra Furlong at alessandrafurlong@nicholascenterunsa.org “The Night In White is a special, magical time where we can reflect a whole year’s worth of progress,” said Spanakos. “ It is embedded in a very deep, emotional tradition and touches everybody, especially all those families that have been with us since the start.”

Nino’s Restaurant Group Opens Chic Waterfront Restaurant On Long Island’s Gold Coast

Nino’s Beach Arrives in Port Washington’s Safe Harbor Marina Boasting a Fresh, Mediterranean Menu

ino’s Restaurant Group announced the opening of its newest concept, Nino’s Beach, on the North Shore of Long Island in Port Washington. Slated as one of the largest restaurant openings on Long Island this year, the restaurant sits right on the shores of Safe Harbor Marina and features refined, upscale Mediterranean cuisine using locally sourced ingredients. The seafood-centric menu is accompanied by an extensive craft cocktail menu and a large sparkling wine and champagne menu. Conceived to evoke the feeling of a laid-back and luxurious vacation setting, interior designer Anna Niedermeyer worked with the Nino’s team to design a space that allows patrons to feel transported while highlighting the waterfront views on all sides. Stone, brass, Venetian plaster, and specialty wallcoverings are used to create texture within the interior of the restaurant. The space occupies roughly 9,500 square feet and includes room for 200 diners, including al fresco dining with an amazing waterfront experience. The menu at Nino’s Beach was developed by Executive Chef and co-owner, Franco Vendome and Chef De Cuisine, Ken Corrow, who has worked alongside culinary greats like Gordon Ramsey, Marcus Glocker, and Stuart Rolston, and features modern Mediterranean cuisine, with a strong background in Southern Italian fare. Menu highlights include an extensive oyster and raw bar, featuring locally sourced oysters, fresh seafood and sushi. A massive wood-fire pizza oven serves up a variety of fresh-to-order Neapolitan pies to share. Guests can also choose from a variety of house-made pasta and a selection of steaks including the 40 oz Porterhouse that round out Nino’s dinner offerings. Brothers Michael and Franco Vendome are second-generation restaurateurs and

Town Reminds Residents Of Summer Safety Tips Pool Safety Tips • Parents should review pool safety precautions with the entire family whether using a pool at a Town facility or a private pool at home. • The Town also requires that residents put up a fence to separate their house from the pool. The Town requires the installation of a fence at least 6 feet high around all sides of the pool, as well as the use of self-closing and self-latching gates that secure from the inside. Homeowners should inspect fences periodically to

make sure they are not in disrepair. Boating Safety Tips • Ensure that you have the correct safety gear and equipment before you get out on the water, such as a first aid kit, life jackets, and distress signals. • Check weather conditions before heading out on the water. • Wear a life jacket every time you are out on the water. United States Coast Guard estimated that over 80% of fatal boating accident victims could have been saved

with the use of a life jacket. Remember, life jackets must be readily accessible; not in packaging or buried below other gear. • Make sure all life jackets are U.S. Coast Guard approved and in good condition. Replace worn out jackets so when needed, they will provide the buoyancy necessary to keep you afloat and alive. • Size matters when it comes to life jacket selection and use. When boating with children, make sure they are wearing properly sized and fitted life jackets.

Children must not be able to slide out of life jackets when they hit the water. • Don’t operate a vessel while impaired by alcohol or drugs. Alcohol use is the leading contributing factor in fatal boating accidents. • Pay attention to your surroundings and boat responsibly. Seventy-seven percent of deaths on boats occurred where the operator had no boating safety instruction. —Submitted by the Town of North Hempstead
