YES Community Counseling Center And Prevention Coalitions Host First Law Enforcement Roundtable

The roundtable reflected a shared commitment to creating safer, healthier, and stronger communities.

Participants engaged in meaningful discussions focused on strengthening partnerships, improving communication, and identifying evidence based strategies to reduce youth use and access to alcohol, marijuana, fentanyl, and other drugs. Key discussion topics included: • Strengthening collaboration across community organizations and sectors. Identifying gaps in communication and coordination.

Supporting youth and families through stronger partnerships. Reducing youth access to alcohol, marijuana, fentanyl, and other substances. Recognizing emerging trends affecting young people. Expanding education for parents and youth on the dangers of substance use, including fentanyl. • Identifying collaborative opportunities to strengthen evidencebased prevention efforts. One of the strongest messages to emerge

from the discussion was that no single organization can solve this challenge alone. Protecting young people requires the collective commitment of families, schools, law enforcement, healthcare providers, businesses, faith-based organizations, and community partners working toward a common goal. The participation of parents and youth representatives added valuable community

Massapequa Announces No-Cost Meals For Upcoming School Year

L E I S U R E

By Kerry Mastrobuoni

very Journey begins with a single step, but it isn’t always the destination that shapes us, It’s the direction we choose each day.

MASSAPEQUA - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 19, 2026 • WWW.LONGISLANDMEDIAGROUP.COM

That’s why I’ve called this column Kerry’s Compass. A Compass doesn’t tell us how fast to travel or what challenges lie ahead, It simply points us toward true north. It’s been many years since I last put my thoughts on paper. Somewhere between marriage, raising children, work, friendships, family gatherings and keeping up with the beautiful chaos of everyday life, writing quietly found its place on the back burner. Not forgotten, just patiently waiting. Now, as life begins to slow down in the best possible way, it feels like the perfect time to begin writing again. So welcome to Kerry’s Compass. If you know me, you probably know there’s no better place to start than The End - Montauk. There’s a certain magic that begins the moment you cross into town. The air feels different. It’s as if the Atlantic has a way of reminding you to breathe a little deeper. Montauk has changed over the years. It’s no secret that influencers, luxury hotels, and social media have transformed this once-quiet fishing village into one of the East Coast’s trendiest destinations. Prices have climbed right alongside its popularity, and yes, a weekend in peak summer can leave your wallet noticeably lighter.

But here’s the secret seasoned Montauk lovers already know: you can still experience its charm without spending a fortune. Visit midweek, come after Labor Day when the crowds thin, or sneak away during the shoulder season. The beaches are just as breathtaking, the sunsets just as spectacular, and you’ll often discover the Montauk that locals have loved for generations.

Registration For Fall And Winter Youth Ice Hockey Program Oyster Bay Town Councilman Lou Imbroto announced that registration for the Town’s Fall and Winter Youth Ice Hockey Program will begin soon for boys and girls ages 8U16U. This program includes a training camp, full house league game schedule, and playoffs. Clinics spanning 10 weeks in duration will also be available for registration including all girls’ clinics, 6U clinics, and adult learn to play clinics. Programs will begin on September 27, 2026. “This recreational and instruction program is designed to give players a great way to learn the correct fundamentals of one of America’s most popular sports,” said Councilman Imbroto. “In addition to receiving instruction on

Some of my favorite memories have been made over long dinners at Duryea’s, where the waterfront views somehow make time stand still. Cocktails at The Crow’s Nest have become a tradition, with its effortless coastal charm and twinkling lights that make every evening feel like summer should never end. And then there’s The Montauket, perched high above the water, where locals and visitors gather together to watch one of the most spectacular sunsets on Long Island. It truly never gets old. Beyond the well-known favorites lies the history that gives Montauk its soul. The iconic Montauk Point Lighthouse that has stood watch since 1796, guiding ships through changing tides for generations. Wander the quiet trails of Camp Hero, explore hidden beaches tucked away from the crowds, or simply take a scenic drive to discover the corners that don’t always make it onto Instagram. Those are often the places that stay with you the longest.

New York Blood Center Declares Blood Emergency

That’s what I hope Kerry’s Compass becomes—a place to share destinations worth exploring, hidden gems waiting to be discovered, and stories that remind us why we travel in the first place. Sometimes the greatest journeys aren’t measured in miles but in the memories they leave behind. And for me, this journey begins exactly where it should. At The End! I’d love to hear from you! Share your travel tips, ideas and inspiration at Kerryscompass@longislandmediagroup. com. Until next time, always let your compass lead you somewhere worth remembering.

Long Island Children’s Museum is giving young builders a place to dream big with the opening of Dig Zone, an interactive construction-themed exhibit where children can scoop, shovel, haul and explore through hands-on play. As the second new permanent exhibit to open at LICM this year, Dig Zone represents the Museum’s continued investment in creating fresh, engaging experiences that inspire curiosity, creativity and learning for Long Island families. Designed for children of all ages, Dig Zone transforms a simple pile of sand into an exciting construction site. Visitors can dig with real tools, load sand into construction vehicles, operate a hand-cranked conveyor belt, and work together to move materials across the job site. Every scoop and shovel introduces concepts like engineering, simple machines, cause and effect, collaboration and problemsolving through play. “Children naturally learn by doing,” said Ashley Niver, Director of Education at Long Island Children’s Museum. “Dig Zone gives families the freedom to experiment, build, collaborate and imagine together while developing important STEM and social-emotional skills in a joyful, hands-on environment.” Dig Zone joins Saltwater Stories: We Need the Sea & the Sea Needs Me, which opened in October of 2025, as one of the Museum’s newest permanent additions. Together, the exhibits reflect LICM’s commitment to continually evolving the Museum experience for returning visitors while remaining rooted in the power of play. For many Long Island families, LICM is more than a one-time destination—it’s a place children return to again and again as they grow. Ongoing support from members, donors, and community partners helps make new exhibits like Dig Zone possible while ensuring the Museum continues to create meaningful learning experiences for future generations. “As a nonprofit children’s museum, every contribution helps,” said Niver. “Whether it’s paying admission or a larger investment in our mission, community support allows us to continue building places where children can learn, explore and discover through play.” Dig Zone is included with Museum admission and is now open. For more information or to purchase tickets, visit www. licm.org.
