While flowers certainly add beauty and a wonderful aroma to wedding ceremonies and receptions, there are other reasons behind their inclusion in such festivities. In ancient Rome, brides carried or wore flower garlands because the Romans believed flowers signified hope, fertility and new beginnings. In the Middle Ages, brides did not carry flowers, but rather strong-smelling spices and herbs. The rationale was that the herbs and spices would drive away bad luck and evil spirits. Flowers also served another practical purpose.

In eras when bathing was a luxury, different flowers and herbs helped mask body odors. It wasn't until the Victorian era, when flowers were used to symbolize romantic love, that they became part of wedding ceremonies, according to Modern Weddings magazine.

(StatePoint) People are heading outdoors to prep lawns and gardens for the season and get their families ready for the warm weather.

What’s the key common denominator for most of these activities?

“Whether it’s using a tiller to start a garden or power washing the driveway, homeowners rely on fuel to jumpstart warm weather activities,” says Daniel Marshall, vice president of marketing and business development with Scepter.

“Gasoline, kerosene and diesel fuel all link people to projects and activities outside the home.”

No matter what fuelpowered chore you have to do around the home, a few simple considerations can help ensure you complete these tasks efficiently and safely.

(NAPSI)—In this season of social distancing, many Americans are turning to gardening, finding joy and peace in an outdoor activity that can be safely enjoyed from home. “What all gardeners know, and the rest of you may discover, is that if you have even the smallest space, a pot on a window ledge, a front step, a wee yard, there is no balm to the soul greater than planting seeds,” recently wrote Charlotte Mendelsen for The New Yorker. If you haven’t gotten your hands a little dirty yet, now could be the time.

More Milkweed For Monarchs You can help feed both your soul and butterflies by planting monarch habitat, including milkweed

and other flowers that provide nectar. Milkweed in particular provides an essential source of food and is the only place monarch butterflies will lay their eggs.

Supporting monarchs is critical, as they face many health challenges including climate change, drought and habitat loss.

However, anyone can help by planting milkweed and other brightly colored, p o l l i n a t o r- a t t r a c t a n t flowers in the garden or even on the balcony.

Other Flowers That Butterflies Love There are many other flowers that support butterflies, bees and other pollinators’ health while adding beauty to the garden with bright,

happy blooms. These 10 plants attract butterflies and make vibrant, fragrant additions to any garden: • Sunflowers • Lavender • Asters • Coneflowers • Black-eyed Susans • Verbena • Catnip • Rosemary • Sage • Salvia Whether you already find solace in gardening or are looking for a new hobby, you can help make a difference. So, plant a few flowers to see what gardening can do for you— and for butterflies.

The Charity of The Month for May is: Guardians of Rescue to get food for their pets. However, Paws of War will at times arrive at their homes with no warning, knock on their door and tell them that they have some items to drop off for them. “You always see that tear in their eye” says Robert. “That someone actually cares enough to come to their home and bring them something is very special.”

A lot of these veterans suffered for many years, all of which now have lifelong disabilities due to their service to our country. Paws of War feels that at the very least they can bring them pet food to give them a helping hand during these tough times.

Additionally, Paws of War has partnered with Cambridge Catering, who is providing hot cooked meals free of charge to our veterans. Hank, a Smithtown resident and veteran, was someone that Paws of War helped. When they arrived at his home, they noticed a his two very proud flags were destroyed.

They handed off the pet food and trays of hot food that Cambridge Catering has provided, but they didn’t stop there.

They then went to the hardware store and purchased everything to fix and replace his flags.

Guardians of Rescue and Paws of War can both use your support so they can continue to help others. Please visit www.guardiansofrescue.org/donate or www.pawsofwar.org/donate-today to give today. No amount is too small! Paws of War is also looking for volunteers with construction experience to assist in building catterys and dog houses for animals in need. For additional information, you can call Guardians of Rescue at 888-287-3864 and Paws of War at 631-FOR-PAWS.

If you would like your organization to be featured in the column or you have uplifting community news you’d like to share, please email Noelle@SouthBaysNeighbor.com.

Guardians of Rescue is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Their mission is to facilitate and foster programs and activities that further the unique benefits of interaction between people and animals.

We are all aware of the toll that this pandemic is having on people, yet the impacts are being felt beyond humans.

Animals are also being impacted in numerous ways by this situation.

Guardians of Rescue has been dealing with the Covid Crisis in many different ways, such as helping people feed their pets and taking on the responsibility to care for homeless animals. They have even stepped out of their realm of helping animals to assist seniors during these trying times.

They are overwhelmed by the amount of assistance needed and their phones are ringing non-stop. So many people have had their employment impacted by the virus, therefore donations have been down. This makes it difficult for them to continue feeding the animals, building doghouses, taking in new rescues and trying to cover all their expenses.

“The pandemic has created a host of problem for the animals,” says Robert Misseri, President of this organization.

“I hope that we can make it through this difficult time, so that we can continue to help the animals in need.”

Robert is also the President of Paws of War, another non-profit right here on Long Island. This organization trains and places shelter dogs to serve and provide independence to our U.S. military veterans that suffer from the emotional effects of war. In turn, each veteran can experience the therapeutic and unconditional love only a companion animal can bring.

Throughout this pandemic, they have been tending to the most at risk veterans.

They find that their older senior veterans typically are very prideful and refuse to ask for any handouts. Many live alone and will still go out and put themselves at risk

“Sterlingrisk Day Of Giving” Supports Long Island Food Pantries SterlingRisk Insurance, headquartered in Woodbury, New York, recently organized a “SterlingRisk Day of Giving” initiative to support individuals and families across Long Island facing hunger and food insecurity as a result of COVID-19. The giving effort benefited several of the region’s most active food pantries, including The INN Food Pantry in Hempstead, NY; Pronto of Long Island in Bay Shore, NY; St. Francis of AssisiSt. Vincent de Paul Food Pantry in Greenlawn, NY; and Long Island Cares-The Harry Chapin Food Bank in Huntington Station, NY. “The SterlingRisk Family came together to support families in need,”

explained SterlingRisk President of Programs Geraldine DelPrete. “This spring, so many are struggling to put food on the table. Associates throughout SterlingRisk and SterlingRisk Programs gave generously to help make a difference.

SterlingRisk CEO David Sterling then matched all donations, enabling us to not only drop off food but make a monetary donation at each food pantry for the purchase of milk, eggs, and meat. SterlingRisk is honored to lend a helping hand to our neighbors. It’s what we’re all about.”

SterlingRisk has organized several giving programs in support of those impacted by COVID-19, including

a “Lunch is on us!” campaign that delivered catered lunches to frontline staff workers at Long Island nursing homes and assisted living facilities.

The brokerage also purchased gift cards from client Poll Restaurants and donated the cards to healthcare providers within the Northwell Health healthcare network.

SterlingRisk has a long history of promoting positive values, encouraging volunteerism, and supporting those in need, including raising over $63,000 for the American Heart Association.

More information on SterlingRisk is available at www.SterlingRisk.com.

Gregory Kies, a senior at Plainview-Old Bethpage John F. Kennedy High School (POBJFKHS) has recently earned the opportunity of a lifetime.

Gregory has received offers from the United States Military Academy at West Point as well as the United States Coast Guard Academy and the United States Merchant Marine Academy.

“For as long as I can remember, I have had a dream to serve our country – to give back, to make a difference in both this nation and abroad,” said Gregory. Dr. Lorna Lewis, Superintendent of the Plainview-Old

Bethpage Central School District, noted, “We are so very proud of Gregory.

His commitment to serving our country is inspiring. We are looking forward to watching and hearing about the great achievements we are sure Gregory will have as he follows his life’s path into the future.”

Gregory Kies is a heavily involved student at POBJFKHS. He actively participates in many extracurricular activities such as holding the position of POBJFKHS Class President, President of the band, and Public Relations Secretary for the National Spanish Honor

Society. Gregory is also an active member of the POBJFKHS Track & Cross Country Team where he served as team captain.

One of Gregory’s most cherished accomplishments is being the Founder and Administrator of “Supplies for Soldiers,” an initiative that ships hundreds of supplies to soldiers that are stationed overseas. As the program grew steadily through the PlainviewOld Bethpage community, Gregory was astonished by the large number of people willing to support the cause.

Long Island Media Group • Publishing Since 1953 • 631.226.2636 • www.SouthBaysNeighbor.com Using South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper as a form of advertising has been a positive experience. It is the one local paper that is a staple here on the South Shore. I grew up with the South Bay in Lindenhurst and looked forward to receiving it when living in Massapequa and now in Massapequa Park. People stop me and comment how they see me in all the papers and honestly, theirs is the only one I advertise in, so I’m getting the exposure I wanted! Through this difficult time, it has been comforting to reach out to my account representative and have him respond so quickly, whether I am placing my own ad or an ad with other Signature Associates I work with and admire. I think it foolish not to buy print ads in the South Bay’s Neighbor, which is read by so many. Thank you for publishing this local paper. - Katherine C. of Signature Premier Properties

NASSAU ZONE 2 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MAY 27, 2020 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

My attitude of gratitude starts with a huge thank you and profound/authentic appreciation for South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper.

This paper really helped put my salon business “on the map” by increasing my client base. I also wound up being contacted by Senator Brooks’ office in regards to being nominated for the Empire State Award, which I then won, after they learned about all that I do for the community while reading the South Bay. I absolutely love this paper and I’m forever grateful what they have done for me.

- Eileen S. of Scanlon’s Traveling Salon

We have been advertising our homeowner’s homes in South Bay’s Neighbor Newspaper since 1995. Over the years, we have successfully worked together with several account representatives, thus combining our talents to create advertising copy & photo.

We value our long-lasting relationship with South Bay’s Neighbor especially during these challenging Covid-19 times & we urge everyone to continue to support their neighborhood businesses. There are lessons to be learned during this pandemic if we really listen & hopefully as a society we‘ll emerge stronger, wiser, smarter, more compassionate & empathetic.

- The Michele & Mark Goodman Team (516-655-6613) of Douglas Elliman Real Estate The Michele & Mark Goodman Team

I have been working with my account representative for the past couple of years to promote my company in the South Bay Neighbor Newspaper and he has always been so helpful and fast to get back to us with any issues that may arise. I am looking forward to continuing our business relationship for many years to come! He and his team are a pleasure to work with.

Bethpage Senior Appointed To Three Service Academies Alexandra Midgette, a senior at Bethpage High School, received appointments to three of the United States service academies: the Military Academy at West Point, the Naval Academy in Annapolis and the Coast Guard Academy in New London. She has chosen to accept the appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy.

Dedication and perseverance run in Alexandra’s family, which

bolstered her desire and motivation to attend a service academy. “My inspiration comes from my brother, who is a midshipman at the Naval Academy. I am determined to follow that same course and dedicate myself to a career of naval service expanding my character and leadership abilities.”

Alexandra’s high school career has been decorated with recognition and achievement.

Ahead

of her appointments, Alexandra attended special summer programs for each academy. She served as senator on her school’s student council all four years, was inducted into the National and World Language Honor Societies and is an active member in multiple clubs and community groups, such as the Student Civic Club and 21st Century Scholars.

She has played on multiple sports teams, serving as a

captain for four of them.

To round out her athletic accomplishments, Alexandra was also a member of the U.S. Marines Youth Foundation National High School Physical Fitness Program, in which she captured first place in the individual and team competitions in 2019.

Her impressive experience continues into the community. Alexandra has volunteered her time and effort her entire high

school career, serving on Athletes Helping Athletes, coordinating food and blood drives, tutoring fellow Bethpage students and volunteering at various charitable activities and events. Her well-rounded and robust resume of endeavors were the cornerstone in achieving the ultimate goal of attending a service academy.

“Academies seek candidates that are well-

rounded academically, physically and morally,” Alexandra said in regard to preparing for the rigorous application and admissions process. “I took AP classes junior and senior year that were in line with academy requirements, remained committed to my leadership roles in four varsity sports and devoted my spare time to volunteer work and leadership positions.”

Throughout her academic, athletic and altruistic undertakings, Alexandra found a mentor in AP Biology teacher, Marine Fitness Team coach and former Navy Submariner John Como.

She credits him with recognizing her potential for leadership and always pushing her to succeed.

“Mr. Como has never let me give up on anything and I have him to thank for much of my warrior spirit,” Alexandra said. “He gave me an outlet where

I could go practice and forget about everything else.”

After receiving her multiple service academy appointments, Alexandra was faced with a decision to make. Although, it seems it was apparent she always knew which she would choose. “By pushing myself in all of my endeavors, I realized I have been a midshipman in the making for most of my life. The Naval Academy is where I belong.”

Alexandra will achieve the honor of serving the country as a U.S. Naval

Officer in attending the Naval Academy. She is grateful for the honor to go down the same path as those she admires and respects.

“The ability to take my place following in the footsteps of my brother, Midshipman Daniel Midgette, Mr. Como and hundreds of my family members who have served in the United States Coast Guard is truly heartwarming. I strive to graduate and commission as a United States Marine Corps Aviation Officer.

Semper Fidelis.”

Students Fight Against Food Insecurity from COVID-19 The Student Government at Plainview-Old Bethpage John F. Kennedy High School (POBJFKHS) has recently partnered with Island Harvest, Long Island’s largest hunger relief organization, to help combat food insecurity within the community.

As the nation’s economic challenges continue along with the ongoing medical crisis, the volunteer work undertaken by these remarkable students has never been so crucial in the fight against COVID-19.

The students created an online-fundraising campaign to support Long Island families struggling with food insecurity in the face of the COVID-19

pandemic. The Student Government then decided to team up with the POBJFKHS National Honor Society Chapter to shed even more light on the issue of hunger. The students are currently working on putting together a virtual talent show to help continue their fundraising efforts.

As of May 11, the students have managed to raise $4,801 out of their $5,000 goal.

“This is an outstanding act of selflessness these students are making to help those in need during such a difficult time for so many” said Dr. Lorna Lewis, Superintendent of the Plainview-Old

Bethpage Central School District. “Our students continue to make us proud, especially during these unprecedented times. Their acts are a direct representation of our District’s core values.”

Island Harvest is a food bank for Long Island communities that heavily relies on donations and volunteers for their organization. They seek ways to provide Long Island families with healthy and nutritious meals.

The POBJFKHS Student Government is kindly asking for the word to be spread about their online campaign to raise money for families struggling with food insecurity.

They add, a good night’s sleep sharpens mental acuity and leads to reduced stress levels.

“During periods of high stress, it’s crucial to get sufficient sleep, because it can increase our chances of minimizing the impact of COVID-19 or other ailments,” explains St. Charles Hospital’s Sleep Disorders Center Coordinator Brendan Duffy, RPSGT, CCSH. “Sufficient sleep can help us reduce the

time frame of coronavirus and accelerate recovery.”

A good night’s sleep is also vital for those living with illnesses such as diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure, heart disease and depression. Experts say healthy sleep promotes better management of these underlying conditions.

For most adults, generally, seven to eight hours of sleep is required to maintain optimal health.

Adolescents need between 8 and 10 hours of sleep nightly and younger children

Home renovation projects can pay numerous dividends. Renovations can have a positive effect on resale value, make homes more livable for residents and, in some ways, make homes more affordable.

Renovation projects that aim to conserve energy can save homeowners substantial amounts of money. Such projects don’t often require considerable effort or even sizable financial investments, which can make homeowners skeptical as to just how much they can save after completing the project.

The scale of a project may have little to do with how much homeowners will save. For example, the U.S. Department of Energy notes that a relatively effortless task like turning back a thermostat between 7° and 10° F for eight hours per day can save homeowners as much as $83 per year. A more labor-intensive task like planting shade trees saves homeowners an average of between $35 and $119 per year.

When looking for ways to conserve energy around the house and save money, homeowners need not necessarily commit to expensive projects.

The DOE notes that the following are some energy-saving projects and details what homeowners can expect to save after completing them. While each individual project may not result in jaw-dropping savings, homeowners who follow many of these recommendations may end up saving more than $1,000 per year.
