Rain on My Window By: Joe Costantino

I hear the birds now singing.

A baby squirrel climbing up a tree.

The day is breaking, the sun is peaking.

Should bring a pleasant day for you and me.

Customs

By: Alexandra H. Rodrigues “Good Morning, Good Evening, Good Day” When in my country, you meet somebody You will hear those most of the time say.

It then is answered the same without delay.

Another hurdle with which I was met “See you later” was so frequently to me said.

In the beginning for verbatim I took it Till it became clear that it did not mean a bit.

Customs are often harder than a language to learn Polite here may some other place cause concern.

It made me experience many a sleepless night To figure out what is wrong and what is right.

Then finally I decided not to be so sensitive What to me feels right is now what I give.

each athlete spoke to the younger students about how they learned to believe in themselves, and always continued to work to reach their goals.

Additionally, they took time to explain the many advantages of participating in extracurricular programs, such as music, cheerleading and sports.

The Connetquot High School Athletes Helping Athletes Club consists of more than 60 serviceminded students who pledge to stay away from alcohol and drugs, and to share their experiences with elementary school students.

Local Author Visits Fifth-grade students at Edward J. Bosti Elementary School in the Connetquot Central School District were recently visited by local author and Connetquot High School graduate, Patrice Domozych, to hear about her children’s book, her love for writing and some tips on how to strengthen their own writing.

Mrs. Domozych’s book,

(Send us dated information at least 2 weeks prior to event)

631.226.2636, x275 editorsb@southbaynews.com

titled “Hope is Here to Stay,” tells the story of 12 year-old Lauren Loose’s battle with pediatric cancer, and her efforts to help others fighting the same illness. Using illustrations, a slide show presentation and her book, Mrs. Domozych talked about Lauren, now 20 years old, and the other children who face serious challenges in their lives.

All proceeds from

the book sales benefit the Lauren’s First and Goal Foundation, which was founded in Lauren Loose’s name and provides financial and emotional support for families whose children are affected by pediatric cancer. To this day, more than $800,000 has been raised toward the goal of finding a cure for the disease.

ZUMBINI - On Monday, January 23rd, music, movement and magic were on tap at the Connetquot Public Library. Zumbini, “where the science of child development meets the magic of Zumba,” is designed for children from birth to those who have not yet entered kindergarten. From the curious to the eager, from the future musician, dancer, athlete and more, there was something for everyone.

Zombie 5K

Connetquot High School, in partnership with the Connetquot Foundation for the Advancement of Children, recently hosted the fun and physically-active 5K Zombie Walk event.

Throughout the race, “zombie” volunteers attempted to steal the participants three colored flags before they were able

to successfully complete 10 laps around the halls of the high school. Those who lost all flags before completing the laps were deemed members of the “zombie” community.

To this date, district events have raised more than $130,000 for CFAC, which provides financial grants to teachers and district schools to purchase

Snapshots of Life By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

I ended last week’s column hoping that this month of February would bring with it a little more sunshine into all of our lives… While this is a nice sentiment, of course we know that life does not always work this way, and there are plenty of storm clouds to weather along the way.

This just reinforces the notion that we must all take the time to appreciate the little things in life, the special moments, those people we love and the many memories we share, as we simply never know when they will become precisely that… just a faded memory among many others.

After the passing of my grandfather nearly a year ago, and the subsequent sale of the

house that my grandparents had called home for more than 50 years, there was obviously much cleaning out and sorting through mementos to be done. In some ways, this was the most difficult task of all.

To me, nearly everything held some sort of significance, some deep emotional attachment which evoked so many precious recollections of years gone by. Of course, these are just objects, material possessions which hardly make up for the loss of the person they are associated with. But the photographs… those are truly special. And boy, are there photographs.

I, being of the slightly OCD nature, coupled with my fervent love of all things photography, volunteered to take on the initial task

of sorting through and cataloging the boxes upon boxes of albums, envelopes full of developed photos and a few dozen or so frames and collages. Several months later, I’ve barely made a dent in the process.

But it doesn’t matter.

There’s no rush where memories are concerned.

They should be carefully recollected, and savored.

Every single photograph tells a story; and every story unlocks a treasure trove of feelings and emotions – some happy, some sad, some wistful… all meaningful in their own respective ways.

And winter, while it may not bring a lot of sunshine into our lives, is the perfect time to take a moment to appreciate all the memories that do.

LONGWOOD FAIR - Councilman Michael Loguercio has announced that the Town of Brookhaven is bringing back the Longwood Fair on September 9th and 10th. The event will be held at the historic Longwood Estate located on Longwood Road and Smith Road in Ridge. The fair will run from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. both days and will have entertainment for adults and children, including traditional crafts, vendors, pony rides, primitive cooking, Irish step dancing, Revolutionary War and Civil War re-enactments and music.

Volunteers Needed

Fresh Air summers are filled with children running barefoot through the grass, gazing at starfilled skies and swimming for the first time. This summer, join volunteer host families in Suffolk County, and open your heart and home to a Fresh Air child. Each summer, thousands of children from New York City’s low-income communities visit suburban, rural and small town communities along the East Coast and Southern Canada through The Fresh Air Fund’s Friendly Towns Program.

Harlen, age 9, has visited the Tornatore family for two summers. Host dad

Albert shared, “Harlen has definitely learned to try new things. I remember our first summer. He was nervous but by the end of the first week, Harlen and my son were having adventures and having so much fun. We went to the aquarium, amusement park, and the kids love the beach.”

“My kids get so excited when they get to see Harlen. This summer we went to a drive-in movie, and we were all in the backseat with blankets, pillows and popcorn, snuggled together. Harlen is simply part of our family,” says host mom Allyson.

The Fresh Air Fund, an independent, not-for-profit agency, has provided free summer experiences to more than 1.8 million New York City children from low-income communities since 1877. Fresh Air children are boys and girls, from seven to 18 years old, who live in New York City.

Children who are reinvited by host families may continue with The Fresh Air Fund through age 18 and can enjoy extended trips.

For more information about hosting a Fresh Air child this summer, please contact Jacqueline Shapiro at 516.702.1203 or visit www.freshair.org.
