Martin Luther King Day According to AmeriCorps, Martin Luther King Day is the only federal holiday in the United States that is designated as a national day of service. Martin Luther King Day takes place each year on the third Monday in January. In 2021, Martin Luther King Day will be celebrated on January 18. The day honors Martin Luther King, Jr., an influential leader in the civil rights movement who embraced nonviolent activism. Despite his status as an advocate for nonviolence, Martin Luther King, Jr. was violently gunned down in Memphis, Tennessee in 1968. A campaign to declare his birthday a national holiday was started shortly after King’s assassination.

However, the holiday was not officially observed until 1986, and that observation was not nationwide. It was not until 2000 that all 50 states observed Martin Luther King Day.

Angels of Long Island is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization that somewhat formed itself back in 2015.

Debbie and Brittany, a mother and daughter duo turned a small Facebook group into a fast growing nonprofit organization that helps countless Long Islanders in need. Six years ago these two ladies knew of someone in need of clothing and simply wanted to see if they could be of help. They decided to start a Facebook group in hopes of spreading the word and receiving donations for this person in need. They posted a message and went on with their day, later checking in to find themselves overwhelmed with the response.

Whoever doubts that there aren’t people with good hearts that are willing to help a neighbor in need is wrong, fortunately! Debbie and Brittany named the Facebook group Angels of Long Island and members would post about ways they could help others in crisis on Long Island. The group continued to gain in momentum and members, so much so that Debbie and Brittany decided to open up a storefront location in Patchogue called Angels of Long Island.

Their slogan Neighbors helping neighbors is a great reflection of what this thriving thrift store/boutique/donation center does. “We work so hard to keep our store clean and beautiful so that all of our customers who walk through our doors feels a sense of dignity and respect shopping at our store,” says Debbie. “We are not like your average thrift store! We carry designer brands and offer a unique experience. I did not expect to be running a thriving non-profit organization that has a storefront on Long Island and helps so many in need when I made that Facebook group years ago. What has come since that group was formed is truly a miracle.”

The 2021 Progressive Insurance New York Boat Show, scheduled to take place January 27-31, is canceled. It will return to the Javits Center in January 2022.

“This was a difficult decision and was made with the health and safety of our guests, exhibitors and employees top of mind,” said Show Manager Jon Pritko. “Following a thorough analysis regarding the feasibility of the show, this is the most prudent course of action, and we look forward to the show returning in 2022.”

Bethpage BOE Adopts Bond Resolution For School Facility Improvements; Vote Set For Tuesday, Feb. 9 The Bethpage Union Free School District’s Board of Education adopted a resolution at its Dec. 15 meeting to present a taxneutral bond proposal to the greater community for vote on Tuesday, Feb. 9.

The proposal calls for various infrastructure improvements throughout the district that were identified in the district’s five-year building condition survey. These include repairs to parking lots, sidewalks and flooring, as well as improvements to comply with the Americans with Disabilities Act. A number of academic enhancements are also included in the proposal to continue the district’s expansion of innovative learning spaces for students. The proposal also calls for the addition of two STEM labs at JFK Middle School, which is the progression of earlier work done to improve STEM labs at the elementary level completed in a previous capital improvement project.

Libraries at Bethpage High School, JFK Middle School, Central Boulevard

Elementary School and Charles Campagne Elementary School would be renovated to include state-of-the-art pilot classrooms. A variety of IT upgrades will also be completed, including refreshing SMART Boards throughout the district and improving cybersecurity.

In addition, the proposal includes a number of athletic upgrades, including the renovation of the JFK athletic complex to include a multisport turf field with track and field events, as well as lighting to support evening use for practices. The renovated JFK athletic complex also includes basketball court improvements and the repositioning of the softball and baseball fields with turf infields. The turf field and scoreboard at Bethpage High School would also be replaced.

The cost of the proposed bond that will be presented to voters is approximately $16.2 million. Planning for a capital project now will result in a tax neutral bond, as any new payments for the proposed work would replace expiring

debt payments. Therefore, no new tax revenue would be needed to support bond payments. There would be no additional tax impact if approved.

The district will host a virtual community forum on Thursday, Jan. 28, at 7 p.m. to provide an overview of the proposal.

Information on how to join the forum will be posted to the district’s website, www. bethpagecommunity.com, prior to the meeting.

More detailed information on the proposal will be posted to the district’s website and will be sent to residents in the coming months.

“The Board of Education and I look forward to sharing more information about the tax-neutral bond proposal with our community,” said Superintendent of Schools David Schneider. “I strongly believe that the balance of academic, athletic and basic infrastructure improvements will benefit current and future generations of Bethpage students.”

Christmas Tree Pickup Schedule Oyster Bay Town Councilman Lou Imbroto recently announced that residents who regularly receive recycling/yard waste collection in the Town of Oyster Bay may dispose of their Christmas tree on regular recycling/ yard waste days for the next two weeks, ending

Councilman Imbroto.

“Proper and prompt disposal of a dried out tree is very important, and you can dispose of your tree at the next scheduled yard waste collection day.”

The Armor Museum is fortunate indeed to have Peter join its board.”

Armor Museum senior trustee Michael Sapraicone observed, “I can’t think of another Long Islander so uniquely qualified to serve on the board of a museum dedicated to honoring our American military while educating a new generation regarding the debt we owe the men and women who wear the uniform.”

Former Congressman Peter T. King is joining the Board of Trustees of the Museum of American Armor at Old Bethpage Village Restoration, Old Bethpage, New York.

Until his recent retirement from Congress he served as a member of the Homeland Security Committee and Ranking Member of the SubCommittee on Emergency Preparedness, and was twice past Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee where he was an effective ally in America’s campaign to confront terrorism, both at home and abroad.

Armor Museum president and founder, Lawrence Kadish, stated, “No one in Congress has been as outspoken or as respected in America’s War on Terror than Peter King. He is very much welcomed to join the museum’s trustees and volunteer corps as we pursue our mission to educate and honor.”

Mr. King explained, “I have been visiting the Armor Museum with members of my family for years. Its power to educate a new generation of patriots was made apparent to me when I brought my grandson to one of the programs and it made an inedible impression on him. Lawrence Kadish created a living history lesson for Americans and it is something I very much want to be involved in as I return to private life.”

The former Congressman joins fellow Armor Museum trustees, former New York City Police Commissioner Ray Kelly, senior museum trustee Michael Sapraicone; owner/founder of Squad Security; Lawrence Trivigno, vice president at Bethpage Federal Credit Union; Michael Polimeni, president and CEO of Polimeni International; Fred Daum, PSEG, L.I.; Ed Blumenfeld, owner of BDG, Ltd.; Steve Napolitano, Senior Executive Vice President at Amtrust Title, and Gene Spiegelman, a principle at RIPCO.

Oyster Bay Town Councilman Louis Imbroto recently announced that Session 2 of the Town’s 2021 Winter Youth Ice Hockey Program will begin on February 6th. This youth hockey program features hockey development, skill programs and a seasonend skills competition over the course of 10 weeks at the Town of Oyster Bay Ice Skating Center in Bethpage. The

program is open to girls and boys ages 6-16.

“Youngsters enrolled in the Town’s Youth Ice Hockey program are given the great opportunity to improve their skating and hockey skills as part of a program that has earned recognition by the National Hockey League for its high level of quality,” said Councilman Imbroto.

“The Town of Oyster Bay’s Youth Ice Hockey Program is

Registration will take place at the Town of Oyster Bay Ice Skating Center in Bethpage on: • Wednesday, January 20th from 5pm - 8pm (residents only); • Thursday, January 21st from 5pm – 8pm (residents only);

• Sunday, January 24th from 8am – 12pm; and • Monday, January 25th from 5pm – 8pm.

well as payment. Check, money order, MasterCard or Visa will be accepted.

All registrants must bring these items, even if they have participated in the past. A parent or legal guardian must be present at registration.

Avoid Penalties by Paying General Taxes Prior to Feb. 10th Although Nassau County failed to provide towns with timely data for tax bills, Oyster Bay Town Receiver of Taxes Jeffrey Pravato and his staff have worked around the clock to mail all first half General tax bills by January 8th.

Homeowners should note that this is the first General tax bill mailed under County Executive Laura Curran’s reassessment and her 2021 property tax hike. While the General tax bill includes amounts for the Town of Oyster Bay, Nassau County and special districts, the Town of Oyster Bay did not raise taxes in 2021. Any changes in your taxes are due to Nassau County and its reassessment system, which resulted in tax hikes

for 65% of homeowners.

“My office has worked tirelessly to prepare and mail tax bills after having received untimely data from Nassau County. The Town of Oyster Bay held the line on property taxes for a third straight year, and any change in your town taxes is the result of the County Executive’s reassessment process,” said Receiver Pravato.

Residents are reminded that the First Half of the 2021 General Tax Levy was due on January 1st, but can be paid without penalty through February 10th. Please be certain to sign your check, payable to Jeffrey P. Pravato, Receiver of Taxes. Indicate your property’s S.D. Code, Section, Block, Lot, and

Phone number on the check. Because Nassau County provided untimely data to the towns, Receiver Pravato has written to Governor Cuomo to request a 30 day extension deadline for taxpayers.

The Governor has not yet responded, but hope remains that an extension will be granted.

“New York State laws allows my office to provide taxpayers with a 40-day penalty free period from the date the tax is due during which payment may be made without penalty,” added Receiver Pravato.

“After the 40 days, State law requires a one percent penalty be added for each month the tax remains unpaid, retroactive to January 1st. Don’t delay,

make your payment before February 10th and ensure you aren’t paying more out of pocket than you need to.”

During this public health crisis, the Tax Office has been fully operational but has suspended in office interactions. New outdoor walk up windows are available at Town Hall North (74 Audrey Avenue in Oyster Bay) and at Town Hall South (977 Hicksville Road in Massapequa) daily from 9:00am to 4:45pm to assist residents and accept payments with either a check or money order.

No cash or credit card payments will be accepted.

On February 9th and 10th both offices will be open from 8:00am to 6:00pm.

When paying in person,

residents are reminded to bring the entire tax bill.

Residents who prefer to mail in their payments should send them to the Office of the Receiver of Taxes, 74 Audrey Avenue, Oyster Bay, N.Y. 117711539.

Payments being made by mail should include the payment stub.

Residents should NOT write on, fold, staple or otherwise deface the tax stub as it can cause the computer system to reject the payment.

Taxpayers can access 2021 General tax information at www. oysterbaytown.com.

Residents may view tax bills, print out a hard copy, or pay taxes with an ACH check payment or credit/ debit card (subject to third

party fees, no portion remitted to the Town of Oyster Bay). For more information on property taxes and/or payments, residents may call at (516) 624-6400. Callers are requested to have the school district, section, block and lot numbers of the property in question available. This information is listed on the tax bill and on the property deed.

Better Breathers Club For the estimated 16 million Americans living with cardiopulmonary disease, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), participating in a support group can improve their emotional well-being and have a positive impact on their health.

That is why Surge Rehabilitation and Nursing, located at 49 Oakcrest Ave in Middle Island, has joined with

the American Lung Association (ALA) to form a Better Breathers Club at the facility which offers an opportunity for cardiopulmonary disease patients to connect virtually, via ZOOM, with others who are facing similar experiences, obtain practical information and to receive support. The Middle Island facility has had a pulmonary support group for several years, but the partnership

with the ALA is a new venture, resulting in twice the number of group participants.

“With this support group we hope to promote respiratory health and a better sense of well-being for those living with chronic lung disease,” Robert Madigan, Director of the Cardio Pulmonary program at Surge.

The support group can also address lingering issues experienced by patients who

have had COVID-19.

The support group will cover an introduction to cardiopulmonary diseases; the benefits of cardiopulmonary rehabilitation; the role of family support in cardiopulmonary disease; heart healthy medical nutrition therapy and communicating with healthcare professionals.

The monthly support group meets every 3rd Wednesday at 1pm of the month and is

open to all and is currently using ZOOM meeting format.

To receive the Zoom invite information to participate, please email lisa.penziner@ paragonmanagementsnf.com or call 516-457-5585.

Surge Rehabilitation and Nursing offers an inpatient cardiopulmonary disease program that transitions seamlessly to the Pulmonary Support Group.

The Value Of Repeat Customers Small business owners no doubt recognize the value of repeat customers, but few may recognize just how valuable such customers can be to their bottom lines. A study from researchers at Harvard Business School found that a customer’s eighth purchase was an

average of 80 percent higher than his or her first purchase. In addition, a survey from the strategic planning, marketing and sales consultants Altfeld, Inc. found that the probability of selling to an existing customer is between 60 and 70 percent, while that probability shrinks to as

PUZZLE ANSWERS:

low as 5 percent for new customers. Customer retention strategies like offering superior customer service and seeking input from customers can help small businesses generate more repeat customers, which can greatly improve their chances for long-term success.
