Skye Callaway will attend Delaware State University, Sofia Condron will attend Rutgers University, Cole Lindquist will attend St. Thomas Aquinas College, Mackenzie Stickelman will attend Boston University and Michael Zeis will attend St. Thomas Aquinas College.

Administrators and proud family members cheered as each student was introduced and lauded at the event, held in John Glenn’s gymnasium. The ceremony was hosted by Athletic Director David Shanahan, who congratulated the students on their momentous accomplishments and asked them to make sure to come back and spend time volunteering in the community.

“I want you to remember from this point forward that each of you are now Elwood ambassadors to the youth in our community,” Shanahan said. “They look up to you and all you have accomplished. They have watched you through your careers, and set their own personal goals for themselves, to be like you.”

Some people thrive by doing all of their tasks early.

Others seem to do their best work when faced with a time crunch. The methods individuals use to manage their time at work and play may extend to the ways they approach holiday shopping as well.

There’s no right or wrong way to handle holiday shopping tasks, though Christmas Eve crowds at malls and throughout shopping districts suggest that there’s more late comers than there are early birds.

The following tips can help those who typically wait until the last minute to check names off their lists.

• UTILIZE FREE SHIPPING SERVICES. Shoppers who shop for gifts online at the last minute run the risk of gifts not arriving on time. Many online retailers charge a premium for expedited shipping. Try to stick to shopping at online retailers that offer free shipping even in the eleventh hour.

• CHOOSE ONE-SIZE-FITS-ALL GIFTS. Think about a gift that can be purchased for multiple people so you can save time shopping for individualized gifts for everyone. For example, print a personalized photo calendar for several members of your family. You also can purchase multiple subscriptions or memberships to zoos or magazines for people on your list. Streamlining gifting in this way may save money as well as time.

• CHOOSE IN-STORE PICKUP. Rather than scouring various aisles, you can shop a retailer’s website and then pick up items in the store. You’ll save on potential shipping fees but still benefit by avoiding crowds.

Some people wait until the last minute to do their holiday shopping. A few tricks of the procrastinator’s trade can make last-minute shopping go smoothly.

• CREATE A BUDGET. When rushing around from store to store, it may be easy to spend more than you want to. Make a list of how much you want to spend on each person, and stick to that limit for each person.

Move on to the next store if you didn’t find what you need in your price range.

• ESTABLISH A TIME LIMIT. Stores have strategies in place to keep shoppers in their establishments longer, hoping you’ll make impulse buys. These tricks include scenting the air with inviting aromas, putting necessities at the rear of the store, failing to display the time, and putting discounted items by the registers or door to attract shoppers. Set an alarm on your watch or phone for each store so you get what you need and get out on time.

• SUBDIVIDE BULK GIFTS. Think about purchasing bulk gifts like gift baskets from wholesale clubs and then breaking them down into individual gifts.

This way you can gift several people on one purchase and save time in the process.

Happy Holidays from Long Island Media Group and these fine advertisers! This holiday season, we hope you enjoy quality time with loved ones and enjoy the true meaning of the holidays.

Warm And Wow Guests With Homemade Hot Mulled Apple Cider When hosting friends and family at home, it’s understandable that hosts direct so much of their focus to the foods they plan to serve. The main course is often the focal point and most memorable aspect of a dinner party, and that’s true whether the get-together is a backyard barbecue, a holiday meal with the family or a formal affair with colleagues.

Food might be a focal point, but guests also will need something to drink.

Traditional spirits like wine and cocktails are the standard, but hosts who want to get a little creative should not hesitate to do so. When choosing a special beverage, timing is everything. Guests wil want to cool down on warm summer evenings, so something cold and

Gifting a Puppy This Holiday Season? Read These Tips First

(StatePoint) Thinking of surprising a friend or family member with a puppy this holiday season?

“Before gifting someone with a commitment that lasts well beyond the holidays, make sure you’ve made your list and checked it twice,” says Claire Komorowski, chief executive officer of PuppySpot, a USDAlicensed company whose mission is to make lives better by placing healthy puppies into happy homes.

Having introduced over 200,000 puppies to loving homes, PuppySpot encourages potential dog owners to make responsible decisions this holiday season and are offering the following Do’s and Don’ts to help: Don’t: 1.

Surprise your friend, partner or spouse unless they’ve openly communicated that they’re ready to take on the commitment and can

prepare for the puppy’s arrival.

2. Wait too long to start looking if you know this is something you and your family want for the holidays.

3. Try and cut costs.

Healthy, well-bred puppies can be expensive. If you see something that seems too good to be true, it probably is.

4. Expect a puppy to arrive fully-trained and well-behaved. Puppies can be mischievous and require a lot of time and attention.

Do: 1. Leave plenty of time for the entire process, you don’t want to rush selecting the right pup for you.

2. Realize your puppy may not arrive at the exact moment you had hoped for.

These are living, breathing animals that require stops and care along their journey. They are not a warehouse package.

3. Plan to be home for the

holidays to acclimate your puppy. Be sure to consider what happens when the holiday excitement dies down. Puppies need a great deal of attention, especially during their first year.

4. Use reputable services, like PuppySpot, which is authorized by the American Kennel Club and has its own independent scientific advisory board that collaborates with the USDA to ensure all national standards are exceeded.

To learn more about PuppySpot and its promise to connect the nation’s top breeders to caring, responsible pet owners, visit www.puppyspot.com.

While there is perhaps no more joyful holiday surprise than a puppy, this is one gift that should never be given lightly.

By weighing the decision carefully, you can ensure that a puppy’s new home is their fur-ever home.

Visiting Your Parents For The Holidays?

Caring for Your Parent’s Health Starts at Home

Photo courtesy of Jukebox Health

Millions of adult children will be visiting their parents during the holidays. For some, their last visit home may have been months ago and for others, routine visits might be common.

Health experts advise that while visiting, in addition to enjoying the holiday’s many fun filled traditions, it’s important that children also take time to consider their aging parents’ health needs at home.

“Long Island has a rapidly growing senior population, but very few have homes that are safe for them to live in,” said Daniel Elliot, a Certified Aging in Place Professional and Licensed Occupational Therapist with Jukebox Health, a leading Tri-State healthcare company that works with families and seniors to develop home solutions for optimal independent living.

“Knowing that most seniors want to remain living in their own homes as they age, it’s important that their homes be safe for them to live in. Caring for your parents’ health needs to start at home.”

Was mom recently hospitalized and now feeling somewhat weaker?

Did dad have a recent fall?

These are some of the

questions to ask yourself when visiting your parents this holiday, according to Elliot. “Take a walk around the house to see how the lighting is in each room, especially those without windows like a basement, a stairwell or a closet. Are grab bars now needed in the bathroom or beside the bed to help dad stand up?” asserts Elliot.

“In addition to considering assisted living communities and nursing homes, families should also consider aging in place at home as a viable option for their senior family members,” continued Elliot. “Thankfully many products and services exist today to help seniors live safely at home, without compromising their home aesthetic.”

Jukebox Health offers personalized home safety assessments performed by certified aging in place professionals that include clinically driven home safety recommendations.

Families work with Jukebox to design and install the home modifications, working with local licensed contractors.

Examples of modifications recommended in an assessment might include: • Improved lighting

• Smart technology • Grab bars that come in decorative finishes • Anti-slip mats • Wheelchair accessible tabletops and countertops entries, • Accessible exits and stairwells with handrails • Zero step entries into showers • Extra tall or powered toilet seats • Bed rails that come in decorative finishes Other behaviors to be observant of when visiting your parents include paying attention to their use of the various rooms in the house. Daniel Elliot explains, “Many times we see an avoidance of certain rooms used at home which usually signals an issue but can easily be remedied, restoring their freedom and full use of the house.”

“There is a large emotional dimension to aging in place. Seniors want choices about how and where they age” continued Elliot.

“Remaining in their homes provides independence and familiarity, which many times, leads to living a longer, happier life.” For more information on Jukebox Health, visit their website at https://www. jukeboxhealth.com/.

East Northport Students Raise Over One Thousand Dollars To Purchase Gifts For Families In Need During the months of November and December, East Northport’s Fifth Avenue Elementary students were asked by the school’s SHARE and Student Leadership Clubs to help brighten the holiday season for families in need. Each student was given a paper gift to color

at home, as well as asked to do a chore to earn money in order to donate to the school’s Holiday Gift Giving Program. This year, the staff, students, and families of Fifth Avenue raised more than $1,100 to purchase gifts for families in need.

On Dec. 10, students

in SHARE and Leadership Club took a trip to Target to purchase gifts. The children worked in groups to brainstorm ideas, compromise about gift decisions, and stick to their budgets. The students were able to purchase several exciting gifts for families in need.

Hills East Football Program Continues To Rise Coaches, players, parents and everyone associated with Thunderbirds football at Half Hollow Hills High School East in Dix Hills gathered this past Sunday for an awards luncheon and celebration of a successful season.

Though the team didn’t win the Suffolk County Division II championship game, significant accomplishments on offense and defense throughout the season forecast future success for the Hills East football program.

The championship game on Saturday, November 14, will be recorded in Thunderbirds’ history as the tornado game.

The gridiron battle with Bellport High School was played on the day that at least four funnel clouds touched down on Long Island. Suspended with only minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, the closely played contest was completed the next day.

The final score of 34-28 just did not twist in favor of Hills East.

During each game of the season, however, the team featured a tornado warning of its own on the field. Senior Dakim Griffin broke a 44-year school touchdown record that had been set by James C. Metzger during the 1977 season. Griffin scored 35 touchdowns.

“He was dominating as a running back in a way that I

was not familiar,” remarked Metzger, who saw most of the Hills East games this season, including the game against Selden’s Newfield High School when Griffin broke his record of 27 touchdowns.

“I also had the privilege to see Dakim in Hills’ opening game this year,” added Metzger. “He played only in the first half that day, but he scored three touchdowns and rushed for a ton of yardage. I told Coach Alex Marcelin that Dakim will break my career record in one season.

Coach Alex laughed and said Dakim won’t score 27 touchdowns in one season.

We were both right! Dakim broke my record in one season. Dakim didn’t score 27 touchdowns. He scored 35!”

Metzger is the founder and CEO of The Whitmore Agency, a leading insurance and financial services firm headquartered in Garden City. He is a longtime benefactor of youth, high school and college athletics and education on Long Island. A threesport (football, lacrosse and basketball) athlete at Hills East whose number 21 jerseys for football and lacrosse have been retired by the school, Metzger has provided significant endowments to the school’s football and lacrosse programs.

football program provided him with the unique opportunity to name 12 of the 13 new team awards that honor former Hills East players who were outstanding on and off the field. The school chose to name the remaining award, its offensive player award, to honor Metzger’s contributions as a player and benefactor.

Several student-athlete scholarship awards presented by the school’s booster club this year were enhanced significantly by Metzger’s endowment.

2021 Hills East Football Awards Scott McLam Team MVP Award -- Dakim Griffin James C. Metzger Offensive MVP Award -Louis Mathurin Fred O’Meally Defensive MVP Award -- Elias Barret Joel Hammond Lineman of the Year Award -- Loucas Charalambous Ed Howard, DMD Scholar Athlete Award -Jordan Heyman Joe Marotta Coaches Award -- Teddy Theodore Jim Miller Coaches Award -- Gianni D’Agnese Morton Simeon Bouchard III Coaches Award -- Nicholas Garrone Matt Dunigan Coaches Award -- Davian Johnson Joe Maehr Coaches Award -- Jacob Robinson Sal Naro Coaches Award -- Konadu Boadu 2021 Football Awards Thomas Teresky Coaches Metzger’s support of the Award -- Shane Patterson

Mike Everret Coaches Award -- Joshua Isaacs 2021 Hills East Football Scholarship Awards Jordon Anderson Konadu Boadu Teddy Couluris Future Is Bright The achievements by Thunderbirds varsity and junior varsity teams on and off the field this season under first-year head coach Marcelin will provide the program with a solid foundation. Marcelin already is preparing for the 2022 season with his committed coaching staff of Brian Hanover (offensive coordinator) and John Ruggerio (defensive coordinator) along with Braddon Brightman, Ryan G., Brad Mckoy, Adrian Montalvo and Joseph Rickerson.

More success also awaits graduating senior Griffin, who Metzger repeatedly states is “the best high school football player I’ve ever seen.” Griffin recently received the Joe Cipp Award as Suffolk County’s top running back.

People often ask Metzger about Dakim and he always responds the same way: “There is only one player who runs with the football like Dakim Griffin. That’s Dakim Griffin. I’ve watched high school football for 50 years. Dakim is the best runner from scrimmage I’ve ever seen. His style is his own.”
