The Good Days By: Jamie Lynn Ryan
Once in awhile, amidst all your bad days, you’ll have a good day. A great day, even. Make sure you remember those days. Keep them safely in the pockets of your coat or in a jar on your desk, because you need to know that there are and will be better days. You need to remember how, on those days, you felt all warm inside, like you’ve just drunk a hot cup of tea, like a small fire has ignited inside of you. Hold on to the warmth and never let it go. My eyes landed upon these words as I scanned through all the usual mundane drivel one tends to come across on Facebook, shared by one of my friends, and many before
her, from one of those sites which tend to cull such inspirational quotes and sayings. I did attempt to look up the original source, but to no avail; such is the gift and curse of the Internet, I suppose. In any case, whomever thought to put such eloquent words to a concept we all preach but seldom seem to practice – bravo! It is, essentially, just a rewording of the tried and true cliché to appreciate each and every day, to live life to the fullest, to know that “however good or bad a situation is, it will change” (yet another of those “famous” unattributed sayings). But, sometimes, we do need to be reminded. All

situations require appropriate perspective, something we often lack in the heat of the moment. And the happy times? Well they tend to get lost in the shuffle, swept aside in favor of dwelling on those days that didn’t go quite according to plan. I think that’s why I love photography so much. Memories are priceless, to be sure; but there is something truly precious – and irreplaceable – about capturing that instant of happiness forever. These are the days to remember, ‘cause they will not last forever… so said one of Long Island’s finest songwriters, Billy Joel. Best to store them away for a rainy day – or, in my case, snap a photo for posterity.

Downtowns To Receive Grants The Islip Town Board voted recently on four resolutions that would enable several downtown areas in Islip Town to receive grant funding. The downtown portions of Bay Shore, Islip Terrace, Islip, and Holbrook will each be awarded grant funding in varying amounts, which will be used to help make our downtowns more attractive to shoppers and businesses alike. As part of Suffolk County’s Downtown Revitalization Program the Town and the County will contribute equal shares to each hamlet to help pay for the desired projects, as decided upon by the local Chambers of Commerce. “Healthy downtown areas provide an economic boost that simply can’t be attained through other means, and so the Town is proud to administer these funds to our local Chambers,” said Councilman Steve
Flotteron. “The jobs and atmosphere provided by thriving downtown businesses is an essential part of Islip Town’s character. Everyone benefits when our downtowns succeed.” Bay Shore is set to receive $30,000 from both the Town and the County, which will be allocated toward street lighting and sidewalk improvement on the east side of Third Avenue, between Union Boulevard and Mechanicsville Road. In Islip Terrace, portions of Carleton Avenue between Andrew Avenue and Fisher Avenue will benefit from $35,750 from both the Town and the County. The funds will be used to improve sidewalks, drainage, curbing, and other projects that will improve the local walkways. Islip Hamlet’s grant funding will total $70,000; $35,000 each from the
Town and County. The municipal parking lot will receive improvements and upgrades to its curbing and lighting, which will benefit shoppers and restaurant patrons. Holbrook’s downtown area will receive the largest of the four grants, with both the Town and County each contributing $80,000 toward the repair and improvement of the walkways near the intersection of Main Street and Furrows Road. Additional lighting will also be installed to improve Members of the Islip pedestrian safety in this Middle School student heavily-trafficked area. government spent a day in May learning about environmental conservation.

Math-A-Thon Collaborating in an effort to raise funds for a great cause, students in the Islip Middle School National Junior Honor Society and the sixth-grade math classes participated in the St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital’s annual Math-A-Thon. According to its website, “for more than 30 years,
St. Jude Math-A-Thon has been America’s largest education-based fundraiser. It includes a free math curriculum supplement for grades K-8, which students complete after obtaining sponsorships from friends and family.” “I have a personal connection to cancer and

By tagging the horseshoe crabs, park officials will be able to gather data on distribution, movement and other important details on the life cycle of the marine life.
In addition to attending the field trip, the student government also raised funds to help the environmental cause. The money raised was donated to Friends of Flax Pond, which promotes stewardship and preserves the natural beauty, ecological significance and distinctive resources of Flax Pond and the surrounding coastal areas.

wanted to find a way to pay it forward and thought this was a great opportunity,” said sixth-grade teacher Dianne Ungaro, who organized the event along with Laura Greco and Jessica Kirsh. In their first year of participation, the sixth-graders and NJHS raised $1,325 for St. Jude’s.
Students at East Islip’s Timber Point Elementary School had fun playing games and participating in outdoor activities at the rescheduled annual Field Day celebration on June 6th.

At the East Islip Board of Education’s June 12th business meeting, Ruth C. Kinney Elementary School kindergartner Danielle Simonetti was recognized for winning first place in the Suffolk Reading Council’s Annual Creative Writing Contest. She was
honored by the Council the previous night at a special ceremony at the Clarion Hotel in Ronkonkoma. Also recognized for this achievement were Simonetti’s teacher, David Kennedy, who was in attendance, as well as RCK’s reading teacher,

Winning Writer Teresa Frisina, who annually organizes the Suffolk Reading Council submissions. “Congratulations to everyone involved,” said Superintendent of Schools Linda J. Rozzi. “We are all very proud of you.”
East Islip High School’s AP Statistics classes hosted the school’s fourth annual Statistics Day on May 30th. Led by teacher Raymond Willie, the students showcased their impressive data collection skills and knowledge of statistical
practices. “Statistics is one of the leading job markets in today’s business world, and companies do extensive research on all aspects of their products to be able to market and sell better,” said Willie. “Students in AP
Statistics have learned the importance of collecting data and analyzing to produce results.” Photo by: East Islip School District

15 second-round match. East Islip made it to the “elite eight” third round of the playoffs before losing to Ward Melville on May 17th. Accompanied by their families, the athletes on the team were honored at the Suffolk County Boys Tennis Coaches Awards Ceremony, held May 28 at Villa Lombardi’s in Holbrook. Matt Croce, Andrew Hegarty, Kevin
Nowakowski and Matt Talamo were named AllCounty; Frank Artusa earned All-Division status; and Joe Cacciatore, Dave Carroll, Andrew Hopkins and Jon Matros were named All-League. Their coach, Michael Drozd, was named the SCBTCA Division II, League III Coach of the Year. Photo by: East Islip School District
perfecting each piece, they would earn a colored “belt,” similar to those awarded in the study of karate, thus the name “Recorder Karate.” “Recorder Karate is a wonderful supplement to our third-grade music curriculum at Connetquot,” explained Murphy. “The recorder is an invaluable tool for teaching musicianship and preparing students for the instrumental program. By earning recorder belts, it engages students in independent practicing and rewards their hard work. Nearly every morning before school, I have several students come to the music room hoping to perform and earn a belt song that they practiced at home. It’s a wonderful
feeling for me, as their music teacher, to see the excitement and love of music that our Connetquot Recorder Karate members demonstrate.” “At the end of the magnificent concert and this school year’s training, the children truly earned the highest recognition of ‘black belt’ players,” said Principal Deborah Smith. “The Connetquot community is grateful to Mr. Murphy for developing this fabulous program, which will remain in the memories of both the students who performed and those in attendance. We will cherish the musical experience for years to come.” Photo by; East Islip School District

For East Islip’s boys varsity tennis team, it was a memorable season that ended with being named League III and Division II champions. They went 11-1 in league play, and 13-3-3 overall, earning them a spot as the fifth seed out of the 52 teams in Suffolk County’s Section 11 team tennis playoffs. After a first-round bye, the Redmen defeated Huntington, 5-2, in a May
The talented thirdgraders of Connetquot Elementary performed the school’s first Recorder Karate concert on June 4th, engaging the audience of parents, friends and younger students with a variety of tunes from familiar favorite “Hot Cross Buns” to a beautiful rendition of “Amazing Grace.” Band leader John P. Murphy helped educate the audience by narrating throughout the performance, explaining techniques such as breathing patterns and finger placements used to create the concert’s melodies. Throughout the school year, the third-grade musicians learned and mastered songs under Murphy’s direction. After

With this fact in mind, The Kaylies, who are philanthropists committed to education and other causes that create a strong community, decided to offer this incentive; Mr. Kaylie was quite impressed with the work that the Gold Coast Arts Center has been doing over the last 20 years in the areas of arts and education. This is the first challenge grant the Gold Coast Arts Center has ever received. “We are extremely pleased and grateful to our donors who rose to the challenge, and so grateful to the Kaylies for their encouragement and investment in our work” said Regina Gil, founder and Executive Director of the Gold Coast Arts Center, “we have received
donations, both small and large, (one boy even gave us a quarter); we were excited to actually raise MORE than the challenge grant funds which should demonstrate to Mr. Kaylie and future funders that we have proven our worth to the region; people DO care about the future of the arts and education in their lives and the lives of their children and grandchildren”. Contributions can still be made by calling 516.829.2570 and paying by credit card; writing a check to “Gold Coast Arts Center, 113 Middle Neck Road, Great Neck, NY 11021 attn: Challenge grant; or by logging onto their website at www. goldcoastarts.org/support or clicking on “Support the Arts” when they get to the website.

A committee of college officials will review applications and make final determinations on all awards. “This is an exciting gift for Suffolk County Community College, one that will provide support and motivation for students who have in interest in studying history. We are very grateful to the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation. This scholarship demonstrates a commitment to mutually advancing the mission of Suffolk County Community College and the Robert David Lion Gardiner Foundation by transforming our community through education; specifically in the area of history,” said Suffolk Community College Foundation
