HEARING AID REPAIRS

Walking to Fight Heart Disease and a healthier life.

Led by Linda Armyn, SVP Corporate Affairs at Bethpage Federal Credit Union and Chair of the 2016 Long Island Heart Walk, Thomas Wrightington,, 11 yearold Heart Survivor, 2016 Red Cape Ambassador, Mary Murphy, PIX11 and thousands of walkers on a beautiful day stepped out on Sunday, September 18th, at Jones Beach to help save Long Island lives from heart disease and stroke.

“Serving as the first female chair of the American Heart Association’s Long Island Heart Walk was a true honor,” said Linda Armyn, Senior Vice President, Bethpage Federal Credit Union. “I am very fortunate and pleased to have been given this opportunity, and to have played an integral role in helping to educate many about heart disease and promoting a healthy lifestyle - two causes I hold close to my heart. I also want to thank everyone who participated in the heart walk by forming a team or supporting as a sponsor. The success of the heart walk will save many lives.” said Armyn.

The Long Island Heart Walk was an opportunity for people to improve their health by walking, while simultaneously raising funds to help fight heart disease and stroke.

Because Life is Why, they will continue to support more scientific research, stronger community education, healthier schools, safer neighborhoods, improved treatment protocols and helping families until there’s a world free of heart disease and stroke.

This year’s Long Island Heart Walk featured interactive and compelling life-changing information and activities including the first “Kids Heart Challenge”

sponsored by JP Morgan Chase, which is a physical healthy activity for 5 to 12 year-olds and a Kidz Zone sponsored by Voxx featuring face painting, crafts, and games for kids and families.

The annual success of the Long Island Heart Walk is due in part to national sponsor, Subway.

The event sponsor is Bethpage Federal Credit Union.

Local sponsors include Chase, JP Morgan Chase, Voxx International, TD Bank, Winthrop University Hospital, Geico, Astoria Bank, Flushing Bank, Setton Farms, Allure Home Improvements, Epoch 5, Bradley & Parker, United Way of Long Island, YMCA, Better Homes Healthcare, Deloitte, Cohn Resnick, Rivkin Radler, PSE&G, Brookhaven Memorial Hospital, Blue Apple, Inc., Luxottica and Catholic Health Services.

Local media sponsors are PIX 11, WBAB 102.3FM, WBLI 106.1-FM and Connoisseur Media.

Thirty-nine percent of Americans think they are in ideal health, but fewer than 1 percent actually meet the American Heart Association’s criteria. The association is teaching people what it really means to be healthy, offering practical solutions to improve their lives and the lives of their families.

To learn more about the American Heart Association and how your company can become involved, call the American Heart Association office at 516.962.0790 or visit www. longislandheartwalk.org.

Book Rentals College students can visit www.CengageBrain. com to rent more than 1,200 textbooks at 40 to 70 percent of the retail price.

Overflowing with Opportunities for Age 50+ is the new slogan for the Over 50 Fair, and it definitely was represented by their September 25th event at the Melville Marriott. Many popular exhibitors from past years returned and and many others were added. The Fair is recognized as Long Island’s largest “Over 50” expo.

Attendees discovered many classes that cannot be found anywhere else, covering subjects as diverse as New Age experiences - Reiki, Astrology, Psychic Readings, Yoga; Finance – Social Security, Medicare, Reverse Mortgages; and Health – Weight Loss, Facial Rejuvenation, Hyaluronic Acid.

The Singles Lounge, facilitated by 7 in Heaven Singles Events, was a big hit with the ladies (40 stopped in) and even with the men (10).

The vendors connected with the attendees, including those who attend year after year.

Repeat vendor Christina Kelly of Medical Arts Radiology gushed “The Over 50 Fair just seems to get better and

Outreach Support On Saturday, October 8th at Jones Beach, Outreach and the John Brower, Jr. Foundation will host the 2nd annual 5K Walk to raise funds and

awareness about substance and alcohol abuse in New York, bringing the community together while walking for a cause.

The event honors the

memory of John Brower, Jr., who died in 2014 of an opiate overdose at age 25.

Proceeds from the walk will support Outreach, a non-profit organization

dedicated to helping teens and adults fight drug and alcohol addiction.

The Brower family formed the John Brower, Jr. Foundation to heighten

awareness about substance abuse and to help raise funds to end the drug epidemic that has had an adverse effect on Long Island. After being

introduced to Outreach shortly after their son’s passing, the Browers were impressed by the organization’s dedication

Welcome to October, the month when thoughts turn from late summer sunshine and seaside walks to apples and pumpkins and all things autumn.

‘Tis the season before THE season of holiday madness, that lull when – aside from Halloween – one can simply enjoy the crisp air while taking a hay ride with friends, navigating a corn maze or picking up some local produce at the neighborhood farm stand.

Personally, I am a girl of summer, basking in

the glow of sunsets and days spent at the beach, of aimless wandering along our many shores in search of hidden oases of beauty.

But autumn has its own special unique charm as well. There is nothing quite like feeling the crunch of freshly fallen leaves under your boots, of cuddling up with a good book and some hot apple cider donuts.

This is the time of respite, that period of transition from long golden days to chilly evenings, the calm before the storm of feasting with family, of decking the halls

Future Plans and seniors in the college application process.

Wantagh Guidance Director Frank Muzio explained that the minicollege fairs are excellent ways for students to shop for colleges. “It is a great opportunity for our students to engage in the college process directly with the representatives,” Muzio said.

In addition to hosting the fairs, guidance counselors prepare

students for meaningful interactions with the college representatives through individual and group workshops. The high school also hosts a three-part college program, which introduces important terms and procedures, calendar deadlines for applications, tools for students and parents to evaluate colleges, resources and financial aid.

In addition to providing a school environment conducive to learning, Winthrop Avenue School faculty and students in the Bellmore School District are collaborating to create a community of riders on all school buses.

Called the Peaceful Bus program, students riding on each bus meet periodically with assigned teachers who serve as coaches. During the first

meeting of the year on September 23rd, students and faculty worked on team-building activities.

Each student filled out a personal survey and shared their special interests with fellow riders. They also brainstormed ideas for a name for their bus rider group and will later collaborate on writing a mission statement. At the end of the first meeting, the students then talked

with their bus driver about possible bus names and rules they need to follow.

Social worker and Peaceful Bus program adviser Dr. Julie Lang said the goal of the program is to “have every student feel safe on the bus and to encourage students to be kind and respectful to each other while riding to school.”

Page Turning Seminar Emily Jackson, a fifthgrader at George McVey Elementary School in the East Meadow School District, challenged herself to exceed school librarian Ellen O’Neill’s record of reading 24 books as her summer reading project.

Ms. O’Neill was featured in a local newspaper when she was in elementary school for winning a reading contest by reading 24 books during summer vacation. Inspired by the librarian, Emily decided to break Ms. O’Neill’s record

as the goal for her own summer reading project.

During the summer, Emily always had a book in hand, whether at the beach, in the mountains or on the soccer field. George McVey Principal Kerry Dunne was very proud of Emily for surpassing Ms. O’Neill’s summer reading record.

“I had no idea Emily’s summer reading project was to exceed Ms. O’Neill’s summer reading record,” said Ms. Dunne. “We are all tremendously proud of

Emily’s accomplishment and hope she harvests this love for reading throughout her life.”

When Emily returned to school on September 6th, she had accomplished her goal by reading 30 books from cover to cover, a total of 4,000 pages during the summer months. A few of the novels she read included book series “The Baby-Sitters Club,” by Ann M. Martin; “Queen of Likes” by Hillary Homzie; and “Cake Pop Crush” by Suzanne Nelson.

Arrive Alive

NASSAU ZONE 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 5, 2016 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Bellmore-Merrick CSD’s Sanford H. Calhoun High School student Alicia Abramson said she had to concentrate intently and even close one eye to complete a seemingly easy task - stacking cups. The catch was that she was wearing vision impairment goggles to simulate being intoxicated.

“I couldn’t imagine being mentally impaired as well as visually,” she commented after completing the task.

The simulation was part of a nationwide program, Arrive Alive, which promotes awareness about distracted and drunken driving. It was hosted by the Community Parent Center of BellmoreMerrick.

Completing the timed fine motor skill game of Perfection, walking a straight line,

operating pedal cars and a driving video game enables students to fully experience the potential consequences of making destructive decisions.

“I don’t even know what is going on right now,” said senior Mike Losak as he steered his video game car into a wall while attempting to avoid a pedestrian.

Losak was wearing “beer goggles” to impair his vision.

Sophomore Nicole MacLaren said she “lost her balance a lot quicker” than she thought she would while wearing the beer goggles to simply walk a straight chalk line.

Max Vandewater, a safety ambassador from the Arrive Alive program, reminded students that even though they may consider themselves skilled

Batting to Beat Cancer at driving and texting or drunken driving, they are “sharing the road with someone who is texting and driving constantly.”

“If your eyes leave the road for one second, you could lose your life,” he added. “And every school we visit, we hear a new story about someone who knew someone who did lose their life.”

Wendy Tepfer, director of CPC, said she equates distracted driving to driving while intoxicated.

“One in three teens will have a crash within their first year of driving,” she said. “And when alcohol is involved, one-third of those crashes result in fatalities.”

The program will visit Wellington C. Mepham and John F. Kennedy high schools in the spring.

Division Avenue softball players joined the Levittown Athletic Club on September 17th to support the first Batting to Beat Childhood Cancers event

held at Azalea Road Field in Levittown. The players helped to raise $5,000 to benefit St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.

In addition to a friendly

competition against Island Trees softball team, the players attended a clinic with the Hofstra University softball team.

Pictured along with Supervisor Santino are Coach Rodger Shelton and the members of the Kings Basketball team.

Homecoming festivities have been rescheduled to Friday, October 14th. The Pep Rally will be held from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m. The Pirate Festival will be held from 4 to 6 p.m. in the senior parking lot. There will be music, bouncies, karaoke, food, refreshments, cotton candy, face painting, spirit

wear, photo booth and other fun activities for everyone of all ages to enjoy.

The homecoming game against Carey High School is now on Saturday, October 15th at 2 p.m. The Homecoming king and queen will be announced at that time.

All spectators are asked to help support the new district food pantry housed at Brookside by donating canned food as they enter for the game. All food donations will help support the Bellmore-Merrick community.

Higher Opportunities with recruiters about programs, the application process, and acceptance criteria and procedures.

The purpose of mini-fairs is to encourage juniors and seniors to start thinking about the college search, if they have not already begun the process.

A mini-fair provides

opportunity to collect information about potential higher education choices, aids in eliminating the stress of having to make a planned visit, and assists those students who are unable to physically visit a college.

Earlier this month, Old Westbury Country Club hosted its annual Ladies Closing Luncheon. Over 100 attendees enjoyed their last official rounds of golf and tennis for the season, followed by an elaborate buffet of epicurean delights.

To celebrate the occasion, the Ladies Activity Board chose the theme, “You Don’t Know How Lucky

and school supplies that were creatively packaged to form the Luncheon’s centerpieces. North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center is the leading community-based nonprofit specialty children’s mental health center on Long Island.

Dr. Nellie TaylorWalthrust, Director of The Leeds Place at North Shore Child & Family Guidance Center, said “We are so fortunate to be the recipients of the generosity and thoughtfulness of the Ladies of Old Westbury Country Club.

These wonderful gifts are truly needed and will be greatly appreciated by our clients.

Among the programs that will be receiving these gifts are our Good Beginnings for Babies program, which offers support, counseling, advocacy, and education to pregnant and parenting teens.”

Get Low and Go Lee Road Elementary School students in the Levittown School District are now more prepared in the event of a fire in their home. During an assembly with Wantagh Fire Department Captain John Licata students in grades 3-5 learned that being proactive and prepared is the best deterrent to being injured during a fire.

“It only takes four minutes for one spark to burn down a house,” Licata said. “So know what to do and act fast. Be proactive by making a family plan.”

Licata emphasized the importance of a family escape plan and the need to know two escape routes from the bedroom, as well as a family meeting place. During a video

titled “Fire in Our House,” these messages were also reviewed, as well as the importance of getting low to the ground to avoid smoke inhalation.

After the assembly, the students boarded the fire department’s smoke house, where they learned to “get low and go” and to safely exit a window.

Hall of Fame

The Wantagh School District is pleased to announce that 20-year special education teacher Kathy DelGais Butler will be inducted into the Nassau County High School Athletics Hall of Fame during a reception held at Crest Hollow Country Club on September 28th. Her photo will hang with Hall of Fame recipients in the newly constructed Nassau Coliseum.

DelGais Butler attended Wantagh High School from 1982-1986, where she played volleyball (captain),

basketball and softball. In basketball, she scored 999 points, a Wantagh High School record held until 2015.

As a softball player, DelGais Butler was a Long Island windmill pitcher with a career record of 877, which included 2,421 batters faced with 221 hits, 780 strikeouts and 42 walks. Her career ERA was 0.273 in which she pitched one perfect game with 18 strike outs, 20 no-hitters and 15 one-hitters.

In addition to having received the designation

of All-County honors in all three sports, DelGais Butler was recognized as a Daily News All-Star (1983-1986) in softball.

Sports Illustrated ranked her as 12th in the nation in innings pitched in her senior year at LIU Post, where she also received ECAC first team honors.

The Nassau County Pitcher of the Year Award is now named The Kathy DelGais Butler Pitcher of the Year Award, and she was inducted into the New York State Softball Hall of Fame in 2014.

When asked about her key to success, DelGais Butler said she owes it to the Wantagh School District administration, faculty, coaches, teammates and her family.

“Everyone stood behind me and pushed me along the way,” she said. “Otherwise, I would not have received these honors.”

to help those struggling with addiction. They decided to target all the group’s fundraising for the agency. To date, the Brower family has donated more than $37,000 to Outreach.

“The Brower family is one of too many Long Island families who have experienced the heartbreak of opiate addiction,” said Kathleen Riddle, president of Outreach. “We join the Browers in their mission to do all we can to raise

awareness for teens and young adults so additional families do not have to lose a loved one to substance abuse. The Brower family has been tremendously generous and devoted to the cause. We are enormously thankful for their support.”

“It’s been more than two years since we lost our son,” said John Brower, Sr., “but his memory is with us every day as is our determination to continue fighting addiction. We will

continue with these walks and our other foundation activities until we see a marked improvement in the heroin and opiate problem that continues to affect our communities.”

To register for the 5K Walk, contact Marsha Radulov at 718.847.9233, ext. 2310 or marsharadulov@opiny. org. Online registration is available at www. johnbrowerjrfoundation. org. Check-in on the morning of the event

Family Fishing Festival

NASSAU ZONE 1 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 5, 2016 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Continued From 17

F.I.R.S.T. FUNDRAISER - The F.I.R.S.T. Foundation for Ichthyosis and related skin types was recently held at Mulcahy’s in Wantagh on August 27th. Among those in attendance were Marc, Eric, Marc and Denise Benedetto of Wantagh.

FIRE ISLAND FIELD TRIP - Recently, Packs 96 and 189, of Wantagh, boarded a ferry to Fire Island. Together, they took a Ranger-guided tour of the unique ecosystem of the Sunken Forest. They learned about all the animals that live in the park as well as the special plants that are able to live in such a special environment. The boys identified four different animals for their Call of The Wild requirements and also learned about how climate change is impacting this fragile place. Following the tour, both packs enjoyed a nice picnic on the pristine beach before taking the ferry back to Long Island.

OPRHP will stock South and McDonald ponds in Hempstead Lake State Park with hundreds of brook and rainbow trout.

DEC stocks several water bodies in Nassau and Suffolk counties with brown trout in October, including: Upper Twin Pond, Oyster Bay Mill Pond, Massapequa Reservoir, and 12 other Suffolk County lakes.

Completed by October 15th, these stockings will provide excellent prospects for fall fishing.

A second DEC stocking will occur by November 5th.

For more information about the Festival or weather concerns, please call DEC’s I FISH NY at 631.444.0283 or Hempstead Lake State Park 516.766.1029 for event status. There is no rain date for this event.

For more information about the fall trout stocking program in Nassau and Suffolk counties, call the DEC Bureau of Fisheries at 631.444.0280.

(NAPSI)—According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 12 percent of Americans move to new homes every year. The next time you’re among them, you may be able to save time, trouble and money when you choose a professional mover—you won’t have to worry about renting equipment, paying hidden costs, handling heavy or bulky items and being responsible if something goes wrong.

Here are five hints to help.

1. Be wary of any “guaranteed” estimates offered over the phone or online. Make sure you show the mover everything that needs to be moved, and get at least three estimates to compare. Avoid any that are too high or too low.

2. Check the company’s ratings with the Better Business Bureau and other consumer websites, and ask family and friends for referrals.

3.

Make sure all agreements are in writing, and get a copy of everything

Neighbor Pets’ Place

Five Tips On Moving you sign, especially the bill of lading. Never sign any blank forms.

4. Ask questions if you don’t understand something, and make sure your mover has your cell phone number to reach you.

5. Find a certified professional mover. For free estimates at no obligation to you, get free referrals from the American Moving & Storage Association at www.Moving.org.

Osteoporosis ( N A P S ) — Osteoporosis—bone loss— is a serious condition that half of all women and many men can expect to develop at some time in their lives. Fortunately, it can be detected and treated. In fact, women who have a bone density scan have 35 percent fewer

hip fractures than those who do not. The problem is only 23 percent of eligible patients are scanned. The experts at the National Osteoporosis Foundation (NOF) say that if you’re a woman over 65 or a man over 70 or if you’re over 50, postmenopausal and have risk factors for

osteoporosis, you should probably talk to your doctor or other health care provider about getting a bone density test, especially if you’ve never had one. Many doctors are learning more about this testing device at www. hologic.com.

Quilt Honors Victims During the September 21st Levittown School District Board of Education meeting, the Gerald R. Claps Career and Technical Center Key Club unveiled a 10’ x 10’ quilt commemorating the 15th anniversary of September 11th, 2001.

The two-year project was constructed with squares depicting the heartfelt and personalized sentiments

of contributors including GC Tech students, faculty and community members.

The hand-drawn, painted and embroidered pieces of material confer each individual conception relating to the terrorist attacks. Although the students were too young to remember the attacks in detail, they were still able to reflect on this dark historical moment.

The 9/11 quilt will hang on the wall outside of the district superintendent’s office throughout the 2016-2017 school year and will be gifted to the Levittown Public Library this coming summer.

Key Club adviser Lillian Creedon said, “This was our way of honoring all of the beloved lives lost that day.”

Commended Students Eleven students from the Bellmore-Merrick Central High School District have been named Commended Students in the 2016 National Merit Scholarship Program.

From Sanford H. Calhoun High School: David Bekore, Matthew Garber, Julia Losner and Rebecca Unz. From John

F. Kennedy High School: Ruth Bergman, Chloe Davis, Rebecca Stekol and Alixandra Wilens. From Wellington C. Mepham High School: Rachel Jozwik, Christopher Rosenthal and Zachary Weiss.

Commended Students placed among the top 5 percent of the country out

of more than 1.5 million students who entered the competition by virtue of taking the PSAT last year.

“This is a true testament of these students’ individual ability to tackle a challenging exam and come out on top,” said Superintendent of Schools John DeTommaso.

Partner of the Future Levittown student Annie Tao, a senior science research student at Division Avenue High School, was accepted to Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory’s Partners for the Future Program. Developed in 1990, this prestigious program is offered to select students on Long Island who show great promise in biomedical and basic

biologic research.

During this yearlong research program, Annie will conduct independent research alongside some of the world’s leading researchers and will have access to stateof-the-art technology, equipment and laboratory materials. Her research will focus on the study of mutations and the timing

of gene expression in a strand of caenorhabditis elegans (worms). At the conclusion of the program, Annie will present her research to peers and laboratory mentors and administrators.

The Levittown School District congratulates Annie on this prestigious accomplishment.

Third Time’s the Charm For a third consecutive year, the Levittown Chorus was invited to sing the national anthem prior to the start of the September 20th Mets game at Citi Field. Division Avenue High School teacher Helen Papayannakos and MacArthur High School

teacher Lisa Levenberg conducted the chorus, an ensemble of singers from both high schools.

Curriculum Associate for Music Vincent D’Ulisse explained that being invited to perform at Citi Field is an accomplishment in itself, but invited for a third time

is unprecedented. “They were invited back for a third year because the Mets organization is thrilled with the partnership we have formed, as well as the high level of musical performance.”

Butcher, Carissa Giuliano, Jake Iannacone and James May are among the 34,000 Commended Students throughout the nation being recognized for their exceptional academic promise.

Commended Students are recognized for having placed among the top 5 percent of more than

1.5 million students who entered the competition by taking the 2015 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/ NMSQT).

The district congratulates these students on this exceptional achievement.

In following the Bellmore School District’s leadership principles, students enrolled in the Charles A. Reinhard Early Childhood Center, Winthrop Avenue and Shore Road schools have been working within their classrooms to create mission statements. The mission statements are now hung on a communal bulletin board outside

the main office of each building.

According to the district’s Star Leadership Principles, students should “begin with an end in mind” by planning ahead and setting goals, looking for ways to become good citizens and contributing to the classrooms’ and schools’ missions and vision for learning.

According to Jody Leibowitz’s fifth-grade class at Shore Road, being attentive and kind and raising a hand to acquire the attention of the teacher are some examples of leadership qualities included in the class’ mission to become star learners.

Dragon Pride Reigns A beautiful, clear blue sky was the perfect backdrop for Levittown School District’s Division Avenue High School’s annual homecoming parade and game on September 24th.

Prior to the game, clubs and members of each class paraded from Wisdom Lane Middle School, down Hempstead Turnpike and onto Division Avenue with homemade banners, and members of the homecoming court rode on the back of decorated convertibles.

English teacher Mike Verdi also served as the grand marshal. The high school marching band and cheerleaders led the way as families and Levittown residents gathered on the sides of local streets to show their support.

To kick off the game, Alexa McCall and Erin McCall led the community in the Pledge of Allegiance while Jaida Rivera sang the national anthem. The halftime show was packed with performances from the cheerleaders, the kickline

team and the high school marching band. During a special presentation, the homecoming court was announced and Steven Reilly and Jamie Alvino were crowned homecoming queen and king, while Samantha Medak-Carreras and Douglas Melgar were crowned homecoming princess and prince.

The Dragons flexed their muscle and managed a victory against New Hyde Park with a score of 21-6.

All Adds Up District are using Math Workshop. Students rotate through a variety of math centers where they play number games in groups, solve problems on their own and work directly with their teachers.

In Melissa Dwyer’s fifthgrade class, students at one station learned about exponents by putting together puzzle pieces

that had the answer in three different forms, and at another using cutouts of numbers to learn about place value.

“I personally think it’s more engaging,” said fifth-grade teacher Tiffany Antonucci of the math centers, “and I get to know the needs of my students in minutes.”

DIABETES RESEARCH - Levittown student Shavani Sharma, a senior at Division Avenue High School, conducted independent research this summer at Winthrop University Hospital. Shavani’s research focused on the connection between diabetes and cholesterol metabolism. Shavani used FXR bile acid to control cholesterol levels in the body to maintain glucose levels.

Strength for Life Strength for Life would like to thank Barbara Larrea and the World Gym Wantagh for organizing “Cycle for Strength,” held September 24th at Mulcahy’s, the third epic two-hour event, with participants invited to ride in honor of a cancer warrior.

Enormous effort was put forth by Ms. Larrea to organize this event and by the Team and Family of World Gym Wantagh. Over $50,000 was raised by this generous community, and the sponsors of the event.

In the past three years, the Wantagh World Gym has held this event and chose Strength for Life as a beneficiary with the total raised over $110,000.

Strength for Life relies on our fundraising events to provide these services and World Gym Wantagh relieved a heavy burden during these years.

This year, each of the 92 riders was asked to fundraise $350 for the event and nearly all exceeded their goal. The energy at Mulcahy’s was palpable as the riders entered, claimed their bike, bought raffles and prepared for the

experience.

Barbara Larrea, on center stage, led the riders on a fantastic journey, combining her heartfelt, inspiring coaching, fabulous sounds and personalized World Gym video. Add in food, libations and raffles galore.

80 baskets and 11 grand prizes. The proceeds from the raffles of $6,000 were presented to a World Gym warrior fighting a recurrence - but strong, beautiful, confident and riding with the rest.

Strength for Life (SFL), is a non-profit dedicated to providing free exercise programs designed to enhance the recovery process of persons with a cancer diagnosis throughout Long Island communities.

Services provided include educating cancer patients, caregivers and the medical community on the benefits of incorporating exercise into the treatment regimen and its effect on reducing the risk of certain cancers and re-occurrences, along with improving bodily functional activities.

Programs are conducted by certified cancer

exercise specialists in a group setting and held at 11 accessible locations throughout Nassau and Suffolk counties. Over the past seven years, SFL has reached more than 1,700 patients and survivors.

World Gym Wantagh hosts classes twice a week, and they are forever grateful for the beautiful room and welcoming staff.

Many survivors are initially intimidated to go back into the gym environment. Their intent is to empower them to embrace the “new normal” and feel confident enough to go back to their previous activities. Learning of the astronomical copays of a cancer diagnosis and how it can make it financially difficult for many to work with a personal trainer, Strength for Life has tried to eliminate all the barriers – travel, equipment, cost and qualified cancer exercise specialists.

They are truly blessed to have been introduced to Ms. Larrea, World Gym Wantagh, and the scores of people she inspires to support the cause, Strength for Life.

Carry-On Made Easier (NAPSI)-Doing a little homework before you travel could save you time at the airport.

For instance, visiting www.TSA.gov, the Transportation Security Administration’s Web site, can help you learn what

items can be packed in carry-on and which are best left in checked suitcases.

You can also learn size requirements for toiletries that are allowed on planes and then find properly sized items in stores.
