In partnership with the Constantino Brumidi Lodge of the Sons and Daughters of Italy in Deer Park, it was a recordbreaking year for the drive with 1,220 pounds of pasta and 617 jars of sauce collected.

With the help of the Constantino Brumidi Lodge and everyone who contributed, we’ve been able to make a meaningful
impact by collecting over 1,200 pounds of pasta and 600 jars of sauce. Together, we’re helping ensure that no family in our community goes hungry.”

The Lindenhurst Historical Society Is The Recipient Of A 2024 NYSCA/ Greater Hudson Heritage Network Preservation Supplies Grant
This Is The Second Consecutive Year The Lindenhurst Historical Society Has Garnered Funding Allowing The Society To Acquire Collection Management And Preservation Supplies
During a recent exhibitorganizing work session at the nearly renovated Old Village Hall Museum, Lindenhurst Museum Director Marianne Guglieri and Lindenhurst Village
Historian Anna Jaeger paused to demonstrate how newly acquired collection management supplies will expand and improve the Lindenhurst Historical Society’s conservation and preservation supplies and practices. This is the second consecutive year the Lindenhurst Historical Society successfully garnered a NYSCA/Greater Hudson Heritage Network Preservation Supplies Grant. This year’s funding allowed the Society to purchase seven (7) Garment/Textile Preservation Kits.
“As we endured the hiatus in our ability to manage and utilize the exhibit space afforded to us by the Village due to the relocation, renovations and repairs of both the Old Village Hall Museum and the Lindenhurst c.1915 Historical House Museum, we seized on the opportunity to assess our conservation and preservation practices to better enhance our efforts
to protect our extensive collection of artifacts and historic objects,” said Museum Director Guglieri.
“The generous grant funding we received from the Greater Hudson Heritage Network has allowed us to purchase necessary and appropriate preservation kits enabling us to safely and reliably store the textiles and clothing that comprise a significant part of the entire historical collection,” continued Ms. Guglieri. “This year’s funding was allocated towards archival boxes designed to protect our extensive wedding dress and formal wear collection.”
Museum docents and Lindenhurst Historical Society volunteers continue to partner with the Inc. Village of Lindenhurst to complete renovations, repairs and improvements at both the Old Village Hall Museum(located at Irmisch Park) and the circa 1915 Lindenhurst Historic Home Museum (located at 272 South Wellwood Avenue).
Lindenhurst Village Historian Anna Jaeger is looking forward to the widely anticipated reopenings. “We are excited to once again have dedicated
museum space in which to tell the Lindenhurst story,” said Lindenhurst Village Historian Anna Jaeger. “Both venues will provide versatile forums to display our comprehensive collection of artifacts; exhibited within an environment designed to immerse the visitor and offer a unique perspective that will frame our historical narrative.” Both historians agree that each museum will allow visitors to step back in time to appreciate Lindenhurst’s past and develop an understanding of how the past influences the future.
“The pause brought about by the renovations and improvements have also allowed us to apply for and utilize other grant funding from the Greater Hudson Heritage Network,” said Ms. Guglieri. “With their Conservation Treatment Grants, we have been able to professionally conserve a collection of four historical marching band drums including a Civil War era snare drum and two bass drums from the L.F. Wrieth’s Band & Orchestra as well as two historic bicycles; a Velocipede used in 1882 by Lindenhurst resident Louis
Liebl, Sr. and a “Chainless” bicycle used in early 1900 by Lindenhurst resident Harry Frevert. We are excited at the prospect of being able
to properly exhibit these artifacts; each significant to our community’s evolution from its Native American origins as Neguntatogue to today’s thriving Village, the fourth
State.”
Academic Performance Can Be Affected By Eyesight
Many variables affect students’ academic performance. These include a willingness to learn, students’ attentiveness, having a great teacher, and kids’ commitment to studying and doing homework. One component of academic performance can be easily overlooked: eyesight.
The M.M. Joshi Eye Institute in India says vision problems in children can affect studies and restrict students’ academic development.
Academic performance is directly linked to the ability to see clearly, as vision affects reading, writing, comprehension, and classroom participation. Clarendon Vision Development Center of Illinois advises that a substantial part of a child’s education is acquired through visual processing. When that vision is impaired, it can hinder the ability to learn and absorb information effectively.
Impaired eyesight may cause students to
struggle and fall behind. This ultimately can lead to a lack of engagement in classwork and ultimately make them consider giving up, particularly when a student is unaware that it is eyesight and not another factor affecting their ability to learn. Furthermore, poor grades may cause parents to mistakenly conclude a child has a learning disability or is slacking off.
The relationship between eyesight and education underscores
the significance of routine eye exams. Intervention can help prevent poor academic performance. Infants often get their first comprehensive eye exams around zero to six months of age. By age three, children should have a second eye exam, says Medical Optometry America. Around age five or six, children should receive a third comprehensive eye exam, just before entering school.

Get Ready For The Holidays: Tips For Business Owners
By JoAnn Cilla
The holiday shopping season officially starts on Black Friday (November 29th this year). This means there are only 27 days between Thanksgiving and Christmas, the shortest possible window for business owners and shoppers. It also means that every day counts! Preparing early, anticipating challenges, and maximizing opportunities will give you the best chance for success this year. Here are a few suggestions to help you get ready for the holidays.
The Good: The holidays are a great time to show appreciation for your loyal customers. Here are three ideas to show them how much:
• Exclusive Discounts: Offer early access or special deals to VIP customers.
• Personalized Thank You Gifts: Small tokens of appreciation like holiday cards, discount vouchers, or locally sourced treats go a long way.
• Host a Customer Appreciation Event: This could be a small in-store gathering with refreshments or an online event for virtual customers.
The Bad: Here are three things you want to avoid, or at least have a backup plan if they happen:
• Employee Illness: Winter brings flu season, and sick employees can create disruptions. First, cross-train employees so they can step into other roles if needed. Second, promote wellness with flu shots and flexible scheduling.
• Owner Burnout: Don’t forget to care for yourself in November and December. Make time to rest and recharge so you can be present every day during the holiday season.
• Bad Weather: Winter storms, including a potential polar vortex,
JOANN CILLA
can cause delivery delays or reduced foot traffic. Keep customers informed through your website and social media. Offer options like curbside pickup or local delivery if weather conditions limit access to your store. The Holiday Checklist: Everyone needs a checklist to make sure everything runs smoothly. Here are three key areas to watch as we get closer to Black Friday:
• Website: Are all links working? How does it look and function on a computer, phone, and tablet? Is your contact information easy to find? Are promotions and holiday hours clearly displayed?
• Inventory & Staff: Did you order enough stock to meet demand? Is your staffing plan in place for busy days? Do employees understand their roles and responsibilities?
• Communication: Are email marketing campaigns ready to go? Have you scheduled social media posts promoting events, offers, and deadlines? Are customers aware of shipping deadlines and weather-related contingencies?
By following these steps, hopefully you avoid the bad, take advantage of the good, and get to check everything off your holiday season checklist. With a little preparation, this holiday season could be your best yet! Happy Holidays!!

NFPA Urges Extra Caution When Preparing Your Feast This Thanksgiving
The National Fire Protection Association® (NFPA®) urges added caution when cooking on Thanksgiving Day, by far the leading day of the year for home cooking fires. In 2022, an estimated 1,610 home cooking fires were reported to U.S fire departments
on Thanksgiving Day, reflecting a 399 percent increase over the daily average. Between 2018 and 2022, there was an annual average of three and half times more cooking fires on Thanksgiving Day than on a typical day of the year.
“Thanksgiving is a hectic holiday with multiple dishes cooking and baking at the same time, along with guests, entertaining, and other distractions that can make it easy to lose sight of what’s on the stove or in the oven,” said Lorraine Carli, vice
president of Outreach and Advocacy at NFPA. “With all these factors at play, it’s no surprise that the number of cooking fires spikes so dramatically on Thanksgiving.”
Overall, cooking is the leading cause of U.S. home fires and injuries, and the second-leading
cause of home fire deaths.
Unattended cooking is the leading contributing factor in cooking fires and fire deaths.
“Keeping a close eye on what’s cooking and minimizing the likelihood of getting distracted can greatly reduce the risk of cooking fires,” said
Carli. “As simple as these preventative measures may sound, they truly can help ensure that everyone enjoys a festive, fire-free holiday.”

NFPA
Continued From 20
from NFPA to help everyone cook safely on Thanksgiving: Never leave the kitchen while cooking on the stovetop. Some types of cooking, especially those that involve frying or sautéing with oil, need continuous attention.
Urges Extra Caution When Preparing Your Feast This Thanksgiving
When cooking a turkey, remain at home and check it regularly. Make use of timers to keep track of cooking times, particularly for foods that require longer cook times.
Keep things that can catch fire like oven mitts, wooden utensils, food wrappers, and towels
at least three feet away from the cooking area. Avoid long sleeves and hanging fabrics that can come in contact with a heat source. Always cook with a lid beside your pan. If a small grease fire starts, smother the flames by sliding the lid over the pan, then turn off the
burner. Do not remove the cover because the fire could start again. Let the pan cool for a long time. For an oven fire, turn off the heat and keep the door closed. Only open the door once you’re confident the fire is completely out, standing to the side as you do. If you have any doubts or concerns, contact the fire department for assistance. Keep children and pets at least three feet away from the stove and areas where hot food or drink is prepared or carried. Hot foods and liquids should be placed away from table and counter edges.
In addition, NFPA strongly discourages the use of turkey fryers that use cooking oil, which can cause devastating burns. For a safe alternative, NFPA recommends purchasing a fried turkey from a grocery store or restaurant or buying a fryer that does not use oil.
Black Friday sales have become a staple of the holiday shopping season. On Black Friday, many items are deeply discounted, and shoppers often target high-profile, expensive electronics. In fact, according to the retail advisor and trend forecaster NerdWallet, technology products are among the most soughtafter products among Black Friday shoppers.
Black Friday Sales
Each year, televisions, tablets, laptops, notebooks, smartphones, and gaming consoles fly off the shelves in record numbers on Black Friday. According to the shopping resource Deal News, shoppers poised to purchase one of the latest smartphone offerings this shopping season may find that Android products are more available and more heavily discounted than Apple products. Shoppers also may have their eyes on gadgets for their homes. Black Friday isn’t all about
technology, however. Kitchen cookware and small appliances also attract shoppers on Black Friday. Typically high-
priced items like stand mixers, brewing systems, vacuums, and blenders are popular among Black Friday shoppers.

As the days become shorter and the weather cools down, a new crop of allergy symptoms can arise, turning the autumn season into one marked by sneezing, scratchy throats and itchy eyes. Medications can alleviate such symptoms, but allergy sufferers may want to investigate some natural ways to beat allergies. According to the American College of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology, ragweed is one of the more common triggers of autumnal allergies. Ragweed contributes to “hay fever,” which is a term to describe allergic rhinitis that occurs as a symptom of ragweed pollen in the air. Ragweed releases pollen in mid-August, and it can continue to be problematic until a deep freeze arrives. Other sources of fall allergies include leaf mold and pollen that is present on fallen leaves. This gets circulated when people begin to rake or blow fallen leaves. Classroom pets and chalk dust in schools (although chalkboards are largely a thing of the past) are other autumn allergens.
The good news is that many natural remedies work just as effectively as over-the-counter medications in regard to combatting ragweed and pollen problems. Here’s how to beat the fall allergy blues.
• Stay Away From Pollen. Stay away from pollen and prevent it from being tracked indoors. Remove shoes when walking through the door. Take off clothes worn outside and launder them promptly, showering to wash pollen off of the body. Use an air conditioner or keep windows closed when the pollen count is high.
• Increase Omega-3 Fatty Acids. It is well documented that fatty acids are good for brain health and cardiovascular well-being, but these acids also may help with allergies. A German study linked foods high in omega-3 fatty acids with the ability to fight inflammation, which is a hallmark of allergy suffering. Foods that are high in fatty acids include walnuts, flax, eggs, and cold-water fatty fish.
• Rinse Off Pollen. Use a mild cleanser to rinse the eyelids and eyelashes of pollen, as this is where it tends to congregate after being outdoors. Use saline spray to clear nasal passages of excess pollen as well.
• Take Natural Supplements. A study published in the journal Clinical and Experimental Allergy found participants who used tablets of the herb butterbar showed significant allergy relief after only one week. Select herbs from reputable manufacturers who certify them.
• Use Eucalyptus Oil. This oil is great to have in the house to help clear up sinuses and provide nasal congestion relief. Mix a small amount with coconut oil and rub onto the chest. There also is some evidence that adding a few drops of eucalyptus oil to cleansing products can help kill dust mites around the house.
• Wear A Mask. When doing housework or yard work, wear a mask to reduce the inhalation of specific allergens.
Thanks to the incredible generosity from dozens of donors, this year’s Food Drive for St. Vincent de Paul was a great success! Together, we collected hundreds of pounds of food, which will help provide meals for local families in need. This success is all due to the kindness of our community. Your contributions mean so much, and I’m proud to see us come together for our fellow Lindenhurst residents.
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
