Student Spotlight THE SUNNY SPRING DAY BY: KARAN LUTHER, GRADE 6

The golden sun shining on my face, the breeze gently blowing across my face like a tornado. I take a sip of sweet ice tea. Dogs barking, birds chirping all day. Children running faster than cheetahs. Bikes on roads, children playing basketball on the street. Kid yelling, “Whoooooh, no more cold!” No more jackets, no more boots, now it’s time for shorts. Children screaming their heads off like mad men enjoying… a sunny spring day.

WATER BY: ADRIANA CANARIO, GRADE 6

Water is wonderful when it is raining and when the rain stops. Then a rainbow appears; It is as beautiful as a blooming flower. Lakes spread across the land, filled with millions of fish. Water gives us pleasure to see and know that there is more life on Earth. All along the fields, flowers bloom from water, as long strands of grass seem to wave slowly around the water.

Meet Your Neighbor!

The Space Between I’m sorry, this seat is taken. We’ve all done it. In a crowded movie theatre, a packed-to-capacity train… sometimes, our desire for personal space wins out over common courtesy. I’m not proud of it, but, well, I’m not entirely ashamed of it either. Case in point: Just last week, my cousin and I ventured out to one of several opening night screenings of The Avengers, Marvel’s latest in a long line of comic-inspired blockbusters. Like most others in attendance, we arrived at the theatre a full 45 minutes before show time in order to avoid sitting in the front row, straining to

see the top of the screen. After scoring two relatively centered seats in the last row, I strategically placed my jacket and pocketbook on the neighboring chair. Fortyfive minutes elapsed. The theatre filled in quickly, but there were still plenty of other options aside from the one single seat I had “saved.” About 20 minutes into the previews, there it was – two stragglers wandered in, loudly discussing where to sit, with one pointing out several suitable options as the other continued to climb up to the last row, our row. “Is that seat taken?” the one, more irritating individual bellowed, while literally standing in front of

me, I might add. I glanced at my jacket and pocketbook, briefly considered moving it aside, then decided against it. “No, sorry, someone is coming,” I replied blandly. Even later than you, if that’s possible, I mentally added. He looked at me doubtfully, then did an about face and headed back to another seat further down the aisle. I glanced at my cousin and whispered, “So much for that theory – now he’s going to see no one’s coming. Whoops. Perhaps if he didn’t arrive after the opening credits…” And with that, I settled back into my seat with my popcorn, my personal space preserved. Obnoxious? Sure. Worth it? You bet.

What if there was a dental plan for only $99 a year that could save you half off your dental bills and had over two thousand dentists to choose from in New York? You would probably say, “What’s the catch?” Cindy Mirman of Ronkonkomabased EDP Dental Plan says, “There is no catch.” EDP Dental provides individuals and families

who do not have access to standard dental coverage through work with a discount dental plan that has more than two thousand great New York dentists to choose from, and discount fees on all dental work that can save members an average of half off their dental costs. Mirman adds, “EDP Dental Plan has been providing this type of coverage to thousands of Long Islanders for over 10 years. There is no reason to pay full price for dental care now that EDP Dental Plan is available to everyone, regardless of age or employment. With just a cleaning, exam and x-ray, you will save more moeny than the plan costs for the entire year.” Call for more information and a list of participating dentists at 631.272.5230, or visit www. edpdental.com.

Fresh Air volunteers need your help to create another fun-filled summer for children from New York City! Each summer, nearly 4,000 children visit volunteer host families in rural, suburban, and small town communities across 13 states from Virginia to Maine and Canada. Host families simply want to share their homes with city children and the pure joys of summertime outside of the city. Families find hosting so rewarding that more than 65 percent of

all Fresh Air children are reinvited to visit the same host families year after year. First-time Fresh Air visitors are six to 12 years old, and Fresh Air hosts range from young families to grandparents. All it takes is the willingness to welcome a New York City child to your community. “Our Fresh Air child loves hanging out on the front lawn and jumping in the pool. Honestly, she enjoys the simple things the most,” says a Fresh Air host.

Lindenhurst Class of 1970 Reunion Set

A 45th Reunion BBQ for the Lindy Class of 1970 is planned for Saturday, August 1st, at Lindenhurst Fireman’s Pavilion, from 12 to 4 p.m. Cost is $30 for age 21 and over, $25 for under age 21; kids under 5 are free. This event includes a great BBQ menu and dessert, wine, beer and soda. The Class of ‘70 would also like to extend an invitation to any alumni who would like to attend from the Classes of ‘69 and ‘71. Checks may be sent no later than July 15th, to: Fred Hagemeyer,

170 Wampum Lane, West Islip, NY 11795. (When sending payment - Ladies, please include your maiden names; Alumni from Classes of ‘69 or ‘71, please include your year.) That night is also the “Any Year Reunion” at Lindenhurst Venetian Shores Beach, which begins at 5 p.m. Admission, as well as parking, is free for this event, and food and drinks may be purchased there. Light Travels Unlike other light, which scatters, laser light travels in only one direction.

The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, notfor-profit agency, has provided free summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877.

For more information about hosting a Fresh Air child this summer, please contact Pamela Desmond at 631.786.1915 or visit The Fresh Air Fund online at www.freshair.org.

American Heart Ride

Help find a cure for the nation’s leading cause of disability by participating in the 2015 Walk To Cure Arthritis on Saturday, May 16th, at 11 a.m., at Belmont Lake State Park in Babylon, New York. More than 800 walkers, including individuals, families, and teams, will walk the 5K or optional one-mile route to raise awareness about the disease and funding for research to discover a cure. The family-friendly event includes a kids’ zone, Sponsor Expo, Team T-shirt contests and a dog costume contest. “Arthritis is more than just minor aches and

pains,” said Jacqueline Duodu-Burbridge, Regional Director of the Arthritis Foundation Long Island Chapter. “Arthritis destroys joints, bones and connective tissue and can be so painful that just shaking someone’s hand or getting out of bed is not possible.” More than 3.6 million New Yorkers live with arthritis and two thirds are under the age of 65. More than 18,400 children in New York have juvenile arthritis, including Frankie Cernuto of Selden, this year’s Walk to Cure Arthritis Youth Honoree.

“Nobody should have to deal with pain on an everyday basis. I’m honored to serve as this year’s Walk to Cure Arthritis Youth Honoree and will continue my efforts to find a cure for arthritis,” said Frankie. Nationally, more than 50 million Americans and 300,000 children have doctor-diagnosed arthritis.

Stamping Out Hunger

The Experience

Saturday, May 9th, marks the 23rd anniversary of America’s largest-single day of giving - the National Association of Letter Carriers Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive in Partnership with the U.S. Postal Service, Feeding America, United Way and other partners. Currently, 49 million Americans - 1 in 6 - are unsure where their next meal is coming from. Sixteen million are children who feel hunger’s impact on their overall health and ability to perform in school. And nearly 5 million seniors over age 60 are food insecure, with many who live on fixed incomes often too embarrassed to ask for help.

As my first year of college winds down, I’ve found myself increasingly curious as to the value of the education I am receiving. I’ve been bombarded with thoughts that college might not be all that it is made out to be. Perhaps, the entire idea of higher education is just instituted in order for us to buy a degree. Now, I realize that all of those thoughts are false. The sole purpose of college isn’t to learn. We pay all this money for the experience. Class and the acquisition of knowledge are really only a part of the equation. Throughout my first year, I’ve formed so many memories and countless friendships. I now realize that my parents pay all this money for me to enjoy my time here. After all, they say the college years are the best

Walk For A Cure

years of your life. Looking back, I spent way too much time in the library. I should have been more focused on fun stuff and taking advantage of the opportunities that I have been afforded. Sure, a GPA is important, but it isn’t everything. After graduation, I want to look back on my time at Villanova and be happy with the legacy I leave. There is only a limited amount we can learn in the classroom. The rest of the supplemental learning comes from experiences. I think that my experiences at Villanova have made me a better person, and ultimately a more whole individual. Moving forward, I hope to instill this idea in my little brother. Sometimes, it is better to enjoy the moment than prepare for the future.

Spark! Challenge Students at East Islip High School’s Medical and Health Technology Career Academy were recently named finalists in Long Island’s first annual Spark! Challenge, sponsored by North Shore-LIJ Health System. Last November, the students had the opportunity to spend the day at Southside Hospital, where they witnessed first-hand the

expert care given to local patients by the hospital’s professionals. As part of the day, students were able to view emergency care, radiology and laboratory services, and to interview the SkyHealth trauma team of North Shore-LIJ’s new helicopter transport system. Back in teacher Paul McHugh’s Health Information Networking class, the students,

led by senior Megan Ludwig, compiled a video showcasing their day. Entered into an Islandwide contest, the video scored as one of the top 10 entries. On April 30th, Medical Academy students will travel to a Spark! Challenge awards ceremony at the Cradle of Aviation Museum in Garden City to celebrate the achievement and find out how they finished overall.

Hoops All-Stars Three members of East Islip High School’s girls varsity basketball team – Jackie Carty and cocaptains Alexa Mattera and Katlyn Walsh – and East Islip Middle School player Gia Gremaux were selected to play at All-Star Saturday at Northport High School on March 29th. The event’s games featured some of the best players in the county in their respective grades. Mattera, a junior, was also named to the 2014-2015 Suffolk AllCounty basketball team at a ceremony at Villa Lombardi’s in Oakdale.

The first East Islip girl recognized as All-County since 2004, she averaged 20.8 points per game (seventh highest overall in Suffolk) and led Long Island in free throws made this year. At All-Star Saturday, she and Carty, who was named to the AllLeague team, both played in the Rising Stars game, which their team won. Walsh, a senior and AllLeaguer, played in the Exceptional Seniors game, and likewise won. She will play basketball for the Wildcats at Wheelock College in Boston,

Massachusetts this fall. Gremaux, a seventhgrader, played in the Future Stars game and scored six points. “I am very proud of Alexa and all the girls for having represented East Islip so well in their allstar games and throughout the season,” said girls basketball head coach John Caraccia. “I am looking forward to seeing Alexa, Jackie and Gia continue to grow and I look forward to following Katlyn as she continues her basketball career at Wheelock.”

Seatuck Eco-Carnival Second Grade students from Fifth Avenue Elementary School in Bay Shore recently got an advance peek at some of the festivities planned for Seatuck Environmental Association’s 6th Annual Eco Carnival, a special celebration held in observation of Earth Day, when they visited the site at the historic Scully Estate in Islip, during a special Eco Carnival Preview Day Press Conference, held on April 24th. The event was led by Seatuck Executive Director Enrico Nardone and attended by Suffolk County Parks Commissioner Greg Dawson, Islip Town Board Members John Cochrane, Jr., and Anthony Senft, Jr., and Islip Town Clerk Olga Murray. Also in attendance

was Izzy Malin of East Islip High School’s Green Team. The Preview Day featured student volunteers from the Green Team helping to prepare the grounds for the Eco Carnival, held on Saturday, April 25th, by setting up a variety of interactive nature stations, which were then tested by the Fifth Avenue Elementary School Students to iron out any kinks before the big day. “The Eco Carnival is one of Long Island’s best Earth Day events because it gets kids outside to participate in an authentic nature experience,” said Nardone. Islip Town Councilman Senft agreed with Nardone, emphasizing the importance of having a facility such as Seatuck available to Islip residents.

“It’s a place in our backyard where we can bring our children to teach them how to take care of the earth and our natural resources,” Senft said. “We have one of the most beautiful parts of Long Island right here in the Town of Islip,” noted Councilman Cochrane. The annual Eco Carnival is attended by thousands of people who come to enjoy the variety of naturethemed exhibits, stations, vendors, as well as live musical entertainment, face painting, and much more.

Exploring Impact

During a recent presentation by Department of E n v i r o n m e n t a l C o n s e r v a t i o n representative Tess Copa, students in Islip Middle School sixth-grade science

classes explored why some animals become scarce when their habitat becomes threatened. They examined human effects on wild animal populations, and through the display of animal

artifacts, products, and, in a live example, Gertrude the box turtle, learned about the impact of habitat loss, pollution and overhunting of local wildlife as well as animals worldwide.

American cultures of the Eastern Woodlands, including hunting and farming practices, and explored a museum of more than 70 different Native American artifacts. At the end of the presentation, the students walked through a fully constructed longhouse, beat on drums and pounded corn. “The kids learned that

the American Indians of our region can teach us a lot about our earth,” said PTA representative Marianne Gilmore. “They learned how the Indians respected the earth and all its creatures. They used every part of an animal and crop so that nothing was wasted.”

Identity Thieves Can Steal Your Financial Stability

(NAPSI)—All your hard work to become financially stable can unravel if you become a victim of identity theft. Identity theft occurs when someone steals personal information such as your Social Security number, birth date or mother’s maiden name. Many people don’t know they’ve been victimized until a collection agency comes knocking on their door. Identity theft is a growing problem but there are steps you can take to prevent it. • Never give out personal information over the phone, on the Internet or through the mail unless you initiate the transaction or know whom you’re dealing with. • Don’t reveal any personal information before you find out NATIVE EARTH DAY - Journeys Into American Indian Territory presented an how it will be used and enriching “Earth Day, Every Day” assembly for second-graders at East Islip’s Timber shared with others.

Social Security number, ask if you can provide alternate information. At medical offices, use an identifier that is not your Social Security number. • Ensure the passwords to your credit card, bank, phone and all other online accounts aren’t easily available and can’t easily be guessed. Avoid using obvious information such as your birth date, digits in your Social Security number or your mother’s maiden name. Change your passwords periodically, particularly those associated with financial accounts. • Keep items with personal information in a safe place, such as a locked storage device or password-protected electronic file.

Take outgoing mail to a postal mailbox or the post office. If your mail suddenly stops, go to the post office. Thieves sometimes submit change of address forms to divert mail to their address. • Check your bank and credit card account activity promptly upon receipt of a written statement.

Brookwood Beautification B. Thorne and later, for 23 years, part of the Brooklyn Orphan Asylum. Now, the mansion is the home of the Town of Islip Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs office, the Islip Arts Council and the Islip Arts Museum. Councilman Flotteron and the Islip Town Board are working with the recently established Brookwood Hall Restoration Committee to continue the restoration effort.

“The Islip Arts Council and Islip Art Museum are privileged to share this wonderful building and space and we are all dedicated to improving the building we love to work and create in” said Lynda Moran, Director of the Islip Arts Council.

Supervisor Carpenter and the Town Board met numerous volunteers throughout the day and thanked them for their hard work and commitment to our Town. “I was delighted to be a part of the Earth Day Brookwood Hall Clean-up. We are so lucky here in the Town of Islip to have a program like Keep Islip Clean that keeps our community beautiful and clean,” said Supervisor Angie Carpenter. Keep Islip Clean is currently participating in the annual Great American Clean-up project. Brookwood Hall is only one of many clean-up dates they have scheduled between April and May. This is KIC’s 25th year of making Islip Town cleaner and greener. “It’s very gratifying to wrap up Keep Islip Clean’s 25th Anniversary by partnering with the Town and Islip Arts Council in this Brookwood Hall Park project. Volunteers will see to it that the grounds are litter free, they’ll build on that with an ambitious beautification plan and we’ll even recycle the water bottles we’re providing. A clean green community is what KIC is all about,” said KIC’s Executive Director Nancy Cochran. For more information about beautifying your neighborhood, call (631) 224-2627. For more information on the restoration of Brookwood Hall, or to find out how to help, contact 631.224.5420.

Islip Town Councilman Steve Flotteron was joined by Supervisor Angie Carpenter and members of the Islip Town Board as he celebrated Earth Day, April 22nd, with the clean-up and beautification of the Brookwood Hall grounds, located at 50 Irish Lane in East Islip. The clean-up was co-sponsored by Keep Islip Clean and the Islip Arts Council, and spearheaded by Councilman Flotteron as part of his Brookwood Hall renovation efforts. Over 200 volunteers from the community came together to help cleanup, rake leaves, plant flowers, and allaround beautify the grounds of the 1903 mansion. Among the volunteers were companies such as Quintal Landscaping, PSE&G, Capital One, Keep Islip Clean, and more. More than 1000 flowers were donated and planted. Food and music was provided by local businesses. Councilman Flotteron expressed his pride to see so many different people come together for what he considers the beginning of a much-needed renovation. “This building has been here since 1903 and it is integral that we treat it as the historic landmark that it is. This is only one step in the renovation of Brookwood Hall and the Town of Islip is excited for the future of this building and its grounds,” said Councilman Flotteron. Brookwood Hall was once the home of the wealthy Knapp family, later of New York City stockbroker Francis

Special Selection

292800N0506

East Islip High School sophomore Michael Stevens was the sole Long Island musician selected to join the 2015 Carnegie Hall National Youth Orchestra of the United States of America, and only one of only six horn players selected nationwide to represent the U.S. on the Orchestra’s first tour of China this July. The NYO-USA program, now in its third year, was created by Carnegie Hall’s Weill Music Institute to recognize the finest young musicians aged 16-19 from across the country. The 114 students in this year’s Orchestra, hailing from 37 different states, underwent a comprehensive audition process including audition tapes of solos and essays about their musical inspirations. The orchestra’s Chinese tour, led by acclaimed conductor Charles Dutoit of the Philadelphia Orchestra and Royal Philharmonic Orchestra of London, will feature guest pianist soloist Yundi. The players will visit many of China’s most acclaimed concert halls in several different regions of the country, including the National Centre for the Performing Arts in Beijing, the Shanghai Oriental Art Center and the culminating concert at the Hong Kong Cultural Centre. Among the pieces performed will be a new work by groundbreaking Chinese composer Tan Dun. Despite his talent, being selected for the NYO-USA came as a wonderful surprise to Stevens, an All-State musician and member of the Metropolitan Youth Orchestra. “I was so excited, I was in disbelief,” he said.

While the teenager is no stranger to world travel, having performed in eastern Europe with the MYO in fifth grade, he is looking forward to his first trip to China. “It’s going to be very new for me,” he said. The Orchestra’s China trip will be preceded by an intensive two-week training residency at the campus of SUNY Purchase in Purchase, New York, working with principal players from some of the country’s finest professional orchestras. The 2015 tour will kick off on July 10 at the Performing Arts Center in Purchase, followed by a live broadcast show at Carnegie Hall in New York City on July 11, before the seven-date Chinese visit. The tour will allow Stevens and other fine young musicians to share their artistry with Chinese audiences while also experiencing the richness of China’s culture and history. The orchestra’s visit has been designated as one of only four Cultural Pillars of the Consultation on People to People Exchange between the U.S. and China, designed to strengthen ties between citizens of the two nations through culture. As part of their travel schedule, NYO-USA players will have the opportunity to tour cities, interact with local young musicians and participate in informal community performances. “We are thrilled to bring together this extraordinary group of young musicians, challenging them to not only perform at the highest levels, but also to act as great musical ambassadors for their country,” said Clive Gillinson, Carnegie Hall’s executive and artistic director. “The orchestra’s first tour to China will be an amazing opportunity for musical and cultural discovery, and I am confident that these talented, dedicated musicians will inspire audiences with their music-making and return home with new knowledge and enthusiasm to share with their peers.”

Pond Extraction

Serving All Of Long Island And New York City Every Day!

Give The Gift Of Music For Mother’s Day!

Fifth-graders in the Islip School District’s EXCEL program for the academically gifted returned to Pardees Pond on April 27th to extract previously placed leaf packs. The event served as a follow-up to their March field-test of remotely operated underwater vehicles they constructed with naturalist Brett Curlew, which provided a glimpse of the leaf packs under the water. The packs were inserted in the pond, which adjoins the district’s middle school, as part of the Open Space Stewardship Program, an initiative run by Brookhaven National Laboratory that connects

students with local land stewards and helps them learn about the scientific process by working with real-life data in the field. Through BNL, Islip has an ongoing relationship with the Seatuck Environmental Association. Noted scientist Peter Walsh, the educational director of Seatuck, guided students through the process of leaf pack extraction. Clad in waders, students gathered the packs and used dichotomous keys and microscopes to identify microorganisms and macroorganisms that are living in Pardees Pond. By identifying the organisms, which included an American eel as well as

insect larvae and isopods, the students gained knowledge about the pond’s water quality. “It is empowering for such young students to explore their natural world under the guidance of expert scientists,” said EXCEL director Julia Johnson. “This endeavor integrates outdoor and nature education with a handson and student-driven approach to learning. As these spectacular young scientists hovered over their macroinvertebrates, dichotomous key in hand, just itching to identify the organism in front of them, their excitement about learning was priceless.”

In 2014, over 72 million pounds of food was collected by Postal carriers nationally, feeding an estimated 30 million people. Over the course of the 22-year history, the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive has collected well over one billion pounds of food. The food drive’s timing is crucial. Food banks and pantries often receive the majority of their donations during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. By springtime, many pantries are depleted, entering the summer low on supplies at a time when many school breakfast and lunch programs are not available to children in need.

Earning His Badge

ISLIP - SOUTH BAY’S NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MAY 6, 2015 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Kevin Nicholas Capobianco successfully completed his Eagle Board of Review on February 5th, officially making him the 57st Eagle Scout of Troop 205 of Great River. Kevin’s Eagle Court of Honor will be held on Sunday, May 31st, starting at 12 noon at Timber Point Elementary School, 200 Timber Point Road in East Islip. Kevin Capobianco is currently a member of Troop 205, sponsored

(NAPSI)—Being diagnosed with diabetes doesn’t mean your life needs to lack flavor. While it’s important to pay attention to what you eat, there’s no need to sacrifice the sweet. Here are a few quick tips and

by the Great River Fire Department, with Scoutmaster Mark Businski. On his “road to Eagle,” Kevin has served the Troop as Patrol Leader, Assistant Patrol Leader, Troop Guide, and Den Chief for Cub Scout Pack 205. He has also earned the Firem’n Chit and Totin’ Chip awards and is a member of The Order of the Arrow – the Honorary Camping Society of the Boy Scouts of America. Kevin has had many

unique Scouting experiences, including attending and participating in the 100Th Anniversary Boy Scout Jamboree in 2010 at Ft. A.P. Hill, Virginia, Camp Wakpominee in Fort Ann, NY for five summer seasons, the Gettysburg Historic Trails, Washington, D.C. tour, and a historical Philadelphia trip. To become an Eagle Scout, the Scout must earn 21 merit badges, of which 12 are specifically Eagle required, progress through six rank advancements – from Tenderfoot, Second Class, First Class, Star, Life, then Eagle, and also plan, develop, and implement a major service project for the community. Kevin has actually earned a total of 25 merit badges. The Service Project that Kevin developed, planned, and constructed with the assistance of his fellow Troop members, friends and family members, was five doghouses that were provided to the SCSPCA to give to those who

simple substitutions to help you make healthier choices and get your taste buds talking: • Eat fewer “empty calories,” including foods high in added sugar. • Choose protein foods that are lower in

saturated fat, such as fish and chicken without the skin. • Flavor your food with fresh herbs and spices. • Fill up with highfiber foods, such as beans, lentils and whole grain breads and cereals.

A Good First Impression (NAPSI)—When you’re applying for work, first impressions count. To make yours stellar, follow these guidelines: • Capitalize correctly. DON’T USE ALL CAPS, and Don’t Capitalize The First Letter Of Every Word. • When speaking about individual organizations, use the singular, not the plural. • Write in the correct tense: For your current position, use the present tense, and for all past

would adopt a dog, but have no home to house them. As Kevin reflects on his Scouting experience, he recently said, “Throughout my time in the Boy Scouts of America, I have acquired a massive amount of knowledge that will help me prevail in my life, and become a model member of society. The BSA taught me how to be loyal, brave, and hardworking. With these traits, I can continue into the world being a responsible and mature young man. I believe the Boy Scouts provide a milestone for boys, and even adults – to live their lives by a high code of honor. Boy Scouts is the organization that has left a positive mark on my life forever!” Kevin is currently a senior at the East Islip High School, where he will be graduating this upcoming Spring Semester. He has been very involved in school activities and clubs, music, and acting. Kevin is currently

positions, use the past tense. • Use clear and specific words in your résumé, not just filler words that you wouldn’t use in real life. • Tell the truth. You need to sell yourself, but you must be able to back everything up with facts. • Be concise. Get straight to the point and you’ll be less likely to introduce errors. • Don’t just abbreviate— explain. Spell out all acronyms upon their

first use, then use their abbreviations. • Be consistent. From font size to heading style, using a consistent format will make your work look polished and complete. One way to improve your written and spoken English and make the most of your first impression can be with the help of GrammarCamp.com, an online grammar training course developed by the editing professionals at Scribendi.com.

• Substitute Equal zero-calorie sweetener for sugar in beverages and recipes. A leader among zero-calorie sweeteners and a national sponsor of the American Diabetes Association, Equal tastes good in hot and cold

Kevin also plays the Cello and is a member of the high school Orchestra, where he has served as Publicist and Co-Vice President. He has also been very involved in soccer, where he has been a member of the East Islip Soccer Club participating in many tournaments, has served as an Assistant Coach, and the proud recipient of the prestigious “Dave Arden Award” – being the first youth member to receive this award from the club. Community service has been important to Kevin as he has worked at St. Mary’s R.C. Church, East Islip, NY as a Vacation Bible School Teacher and Craft Leader, a Teaching beverages from coffee and tea to iced tea and lemonade, sprinkled on cereal and fruit, and in most recipes that require sugar.

Maintenance Pays (NAPSI)—Many drivers find that if they want to make their car last, it pays to put it first. Taking good care of your car means you are more likely to avoid problems, both now, while you’re driving it, and later, when you sell it. To improve the life of your vehicle and its price at resale, it’s a good idea to get it serviced regularly. The car will not only run better, it will be highlighted on a Carfax Report as a “well maintained” vehicle.

Keep track of the service history so you can prove you did the right thing to prospective buyers. To help, you can get reminders about upcoming service from the free myCarfax mobile app. Subscribers also learn of any open recalls on their cars. To find local service shops and get tips on keeping your car well maintained, visit www. mycarfax.com.

Assistant at the Trinity Lutheran Church, Islip, NY Vacation Bible School, worked at the East Islip High School PTSA Craft Fair, worked on the AFSP Walk event, performed Christmas Caroling and Bingo at a local nursing home, collected food for local food drives, and has worked at the St. Anne’s Soup Kitchen. Kevin has also been busy with part-time jobs babysitting, performing catering and waiter services, and currently a Fountain Server at Friendly’s Restaurant, East Islip. Kevin is the son of Mike and Jodi Capobianco, whose father Mike is a former Scoutmaster and Assistant scoutmaster of troop 205. His is also brother to Eagle Scout Steven Capobianco, and brother to Amber, who is a lifetime member of the Girl Scouts and recipient of the Gold Award – Girl Scout’s highest honor.

By: Joan Amato I’ve been remiss During these past few years I’ve failed to notice spring’s first beginnings Or remember how rebirth develops a fresh new earth Where winds echo their spring cleansing And sunsets pose within moving angles Creating dazzling shadows in dissimilar glow That beams through spidery naked branches Enriching the earth, awaiting its breath of life Mornings now waken me to budding splendor Sunlight heightens its edgy blooms Blossoms barely bearing full bud Inch forward like peeking through a keyhole Searching for spring’s glorious warmth With eyes wide open, I am once again Witnessing the wonder of new life Coming forth from winter’s lonely cold hold And I breathe a sigh of release That I will behold change in all its bounty And not be blind to its obvious gift of beauty

By: Karen Ranieri, North Massapequa I have never seen your face I have never heard your voice But please believe me I love you Each and every one of you Who so bravely walk the earth To protect a land, a stranger, a belief The roots of our country are within your soul Where do you find the courage to brave the unknown? Battle wounds do not make you a hero It began the moment you made the decision to serve As I behold my child and savor his embrace I thank you for protecting us May he never know war May he never encounter hate May God Bless you safely home To those who patiently wait And may God Bless the USA

(NAPSI)—There’s good news for those who have embraced drinking fresh fruit and vegetable juices as a way to pursue a more healthful diet: Enjoying such juices just got easier. That’s because a leading juice retailer that is also recognized as a healthy lifestyle brand has revealed that it’s expanding its squeezed-to-order, fresh

juice offerings nationally. The fresh, made-to-order juices, available at Jamba Juice, incorporate highnutrient and on-trend whole foods including kale, beets, cucumbers, apples, oranges and chia seeds. They’re available in a variety of flavors, including: • Tropical Greens—a combination of super

greens, apple, pineapple and chia • Veggie Harvest—a mixture of beet and carrot juices with super greens, apple and ginger • Carrot Cayenne—a blend of carrot and apple juices with the added kick of ginger and cayenne. To learn more, visit www. JambaJuice.com.

East Islip High School varsity wrestling coach Guy Leggio has announced his retirement after this recent season. The longtime leader was recognized at a recent Board of Education meeting for his 26 years of Redmen wrestling success. Leggio, who was inducted into the National Wrestling Hall of Fame

last year, finished his storied coaching career having nurtured three state champions, 14 state place winners, 14 county champions, 72 county place winners, 85 league champions and 273 league place winners. His 2006 squad earned the county title and was ranked No. 1 on Long Island.

A Juicy Way To Enjoy A Healthier Lifestyle

A bricklayer, volunteer fireman and Bay Shore Board of Education president, in addition to a legendary coach, Leggio founded the East Islip KID elementary wrestling program in 1994 and organized the construction of the East Islip High School wrestling room in 2000.

Caring For Older Adults (NAPSI)—With a growing aging population, the amount of family caregivers in the United States is also on the rise. There are nearly 45 million people who serve as a caregiver for a family member or friend who is 50 or older. Serving as a caregiver can be rewarding but difficult. Often, caregivers are unaware of local aging resources that might be able to assist them. The Eldercare Locator is a free, public service that connects older adults and caregivers to information about local resources and services such as

meal delivery programs, transportation options, home modification assistance and inhome support services. Additionally, caregivers can find out about support groups in their community and programs that offer a break from caregiving responsibilities. The Eldercare Locator also has free informational brochures for older adults and caregivers on topics such as medication management, preventing falls in the home, transportation options, avoiding financial exploitation, and brain health. All brochures can

be ordered by calling 800677-1116 or downloaded online at www.eldercare. gov. If you are a caregiver who is seeking information about caring for your loved one and you want to learn about community resources that may be able to assist, call the Eldercare Locator at 800-677-1116 or visit www.eldercare.gov. The Eldercare Locator is a public service of the U.S. Administration on Aging and is administered by the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging.
