Tripping Down Memory Lane By: Jamie Lynn Ryan I recently attended my old dance studio’s annual recital, where I had the opportunity to watch the entire show from the comfort of the audience for only the second year, after 20 years of “gracing” the stage myself. I use that term lightly, as there were quite a number of cringeworthy moments during those two decades of dance. How could there not be?

There was the time I froze midway through a number, right as I was dead center, absolutely perplexed as to what the next step might be. Dozens of others twirled and leapt around me, as I stood there, horrified. Talk about the world seeming to move in slow motion around you. All in all, it was probably a five-second pause; but it sure seemed like an eternity until the choreography (thankfully) kicked back in.

Then there was the year I was selected to sit atop another dancer’s shoulders, while he carried me clear across the stage.

Oh, and did I mention we were dressed in circus attire? The fact was, we had rehearsed the lift and the dynamics associated with balancing in such a precarious position for weeks on end.

However, we had failed to account for the silky, slippery material the costumes would be made of.

You can imagine the rest. I believe there exists a photo of the scene, with me desperately clinging onto the “ringmaster’s” hat for dear life with a huge, frozen, petrified grin, silently willing the stage to shrink so that we could make it into the wings immediately. Ah, memories…

And then there was the ultimate classic. My first year, six years old. Unfamiliar with the protocol of lining up before

my number, how much time to allow, etc., my mother and I found ourselves in the dressing room as the first few notes of “Somewhere Out There” filtered through the doorway. My song! I’ll leave you with this image: A dozen or so girls tiptoeing in their tutus to the music when, out of nowhere, comes another tiny ballerina, arms flailing, flying across the stage to take her position among the class. Yup. I always did know how to make an entrance.

After 20 years, I took my final curtain call. But the desire to dance remains; the amazing feeling you get from being on stage – one that you would only know if you have had the privilege of being there – still lingers on, even as I watched the next generation of dancers take their turns in the spotlight. May they have as many fond memories as I do (and a few bloopers too!).

Teaming Up The Long Island Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, (LICADD) has teamed up with WALK 97.5 FM Radio to produce a series of public service messages focused on the fight against Long Island’s growing heroin epidemic.

Grammy Award winning lead singer, Pat Monahan, from the band TRAIN, along with Christina Perry and members of A Great Big World, have lent their talent, support and voices to these messages. Linda Ventura, a Long Island resident who lost her son Thomas, and Mr. and Mrs. Ciaffa, also from Long Island who lost their

daughter, Natalie speak out in these messages about the effects of their losses from addiction.

“Prevention works,” said, LICADD’S Executive Director, Dr. Jeffrey L. Reynolds. “We know that the earlier we get in and speak to young people, the better off we’re going to be. We also know that treatment works, so along with all the horrors of addiction, it’s a treatable condition.

Here at LICADD, you can speak to a counselor, day or night.

We will talk you through the process and are always available,” he added.

opportunity to reinforce basic water safety practices for parents, and to instill in children at an early age the importance of following these rules,” said YMCA of LI President and CEO Anne Brigis.

“As a national partner with the US CPSC on this campaign, we encourage all of our members – and all Long Islanders with pools on their property – to take the pledge.”

The ‘Pool Safely’ Pledge (http://www.poolsafely. gov/pledge/) asks adults to commit to five water safety steps in and around their pools: • Designate a water watcher every single time children in their care are in or near the water • Make sure children in their care know how to swim • Learn CPR • Remove or secure ladders in on ground

pools when the pool is not in use • Ensure that all pools have a proper fence with a self-closing and self-latching gate, and safe drain covers Children can also sign an online pledge, in which they agree to never swim alone, and to ask their parent for swim lessons.

The YMCA of Long Island provides over 22,000 swim lessons annually for all ages, starting as young as 6 months, noted Brigis.

“Swimming lessons provide children with important, potentially lifesaving skills, to keep them safe in pools, on boats, or at the beaches, and they also offer tremendous benefit by providing regular athletic activity and provide a sense of achievement and confidence,” Brigis added.

With over 60,000 members, the YMCA

of Long Island is the leading local provider of swim lessons and lifeguard instruction, is committed on a daily basis to the safety of all Long Islanders enjoying the water. To learn more about swim instruction programs, contact the YMCA of Long Island at 516.674.8091.

The YMCA of Long Island, the leading local provider of swim lessons, aquatics programs and lifeguard training, is encouraging Long Island parents and children to take the national “Pool Safely Pledge,” to be safe in and around the water this summer.

A campaign of the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission, and now in its fifth year, “Pool Safely” (www.poolsafely. gov) is a comprehensive pool safety program which includes safety tips and checklists for parents, along with a commitment by parents, caregivers and children to follow recommended safety guidelines designed to prevent residential drowning and entrapment incidents.

Meet Your Neighbor!

It all began back in 1976.

Our country was going through a terrible recession.

Our local economy was devastated. At this time, founder Vincent Costello was forced to close his air conditioning and heating contracting business. Looking for a means to support his wife and 10 children, Vinnie stumbled upon a business opportunity, a retail hardware store.

Originally opened 1973, it was a small, neglected, under-stocked store of barely over 2,000 square feet located in Deer Park. With no previous retail experience and no other options, Vinnie courageously embarked on a journey that few would ever have dared. Sales were dismal and the store was in desperate need of attention.

He worked every day for 5 years and managed to make the store profitable.

While most would have been satisfied with this miraculous feat, Vinnie was determined to grow beyond that one small store. By refinancing his home, he opened a second location in 1982. This 5,000 square foot industrial store was also located in Deer Park, on the other side of town.

In 1988, another opportunity arose. A shopping center was being constructed in the little-known town of Nesconset. It wasn’t the most populated area, but Vinnie had lived there for over ten years and he thought that the residents of Nesconset would respond well to a neighborhood hardware store. Did they ever! The 4,000 square foot store was an instant success, managing to be profitable from the day it opened. Over the next four years, the success of that store helped fuel the expansion of the company to larger stores in Farmingdale and Central Islip.

During those early growing years, his children worked in the business and contributed to its success. Their dad taught them the importance of taking care of the customers. “Treat them like family,” he would say. He taught them how to solve their problems and how to learn from them. Most importantly, he taught them that the most sacred bond between them and their customers is trust.

In 2001, with Vinnie’s encouragement and guidance, six of his children opened a 25,000 square foot store

705 Montauk Highway, Copiague • 631.608.4575

in Bellmore. This store was the size of all of the other locations combined - it was huge! It seemed impossible to find enough products to fill it. It took some time, but eventually they had a successful home center. This hardware/home center concept has continued over the past nine years in Massapequa Park, Farmingdale, Bethpage, New Hyde Park, Island Park, Centereach, West Islip, North Massapequa, Northport, West Babylon, Garden City Park, Smithtown, East Islip, Rocky Point, Great Neck and Copiague.

According to Michael Costello, President of Costello’s Ace Hardware, “Our vision is to grow Costello’s throughout Long Island, and beyond.”

Costello’s Ace Hardware is known for a great selection of merchandise and a level of service that exceeds any hardware or home improvement store in the region.

As a member of the nationwide Ace Hardware group of independent hardware retailers, Costello’s mission is to deliver value-priced products with the highest level of customer care.

With every passing day, I become more aware of my surroundings. I try to pick up on the fleeting aspects of life.

From the beginning of my high school career, people told me that the four years would be gone before I knew it. They made sure that I was aware that high school is the best time of one’s life.

From the first moment I walked into St. John’s, I knew that it would be a place with the power to shape my life. My mannerisms, persona, outlook and mentality have all been influenced

by SJB. Each year, on Alumni Career Day, I would

stare in awe at the past graduates, and commend their accomplishments.

Now, as a graduate, I am following in their footsteps and going out into the world. Some of my peers will go on to do big things.

While I was sitting in that auditorium of 397 other teens, I couldn’t help but to speculate on which kid would become the author. Who would become the politician?

Undoubtably, there are movers and shakers within my graduating class. I can only hope that I am one of them.

There is no telling what the members of my class will do with their

lives. As I stood beside them on that morning when we moved our tassels, it became clear that we were in this journey together. I am moving on to Villanova, and we were parting ways. However, I feel as though I will be crossing paths with many of my classmates in the future.

As an official St. John’s Alumni, I have joined the ranks of those who presented on Career Day. One day, many years from now, I hope to stand alongside my classmates yet again, bragging about my accomplishments, and hearing what my friends have done with their lives.

International (TDI) and the Delta Society, together with their handlers. Their visit coincided with a three week unit that took place in our classroom in the month of March.”

She continued, “During this three week unit, kindergarten students are introduced to the world of dogs. During the first week, we discuss the care and responsibilities that come with owning a dog. We talk about daily responsibilities, veterinary care, leash laws, licensing requirements, training, etc. During the second week, we discuss ways in which we can be safe around dogs. Some of the topics discussed involve how to properly greet a dog, what to do if a loose dog approaches you, how we can read a dog’s body language.”

Finally in the third week, students learn about the types of jobs that dogs have held throughout history and even in today’s world.

They learn about police dogs, detection dogs, assistance dogs, guide dogs and, of course, therapy dogs! During the course of this unit of study, the children are asked to bring in a picture of a dog. This

could be their own dog or simply a picture of a dog they find interesting. The children write about their dog pictures and their work is displayed in the atrium for all to enjoy. It is interesting to see how many people from all over the building are drawn to come and have a look at these writing projects!

“The gracious volunteers from TDI and the Delta Society assist us in reviewing the above lessons. We set up four centers in the classroom so that small groups of children are provided with a hands-on opportunity to interact with the dogs in a way that reinforces the lessons they have learned during our unit.”

Ms. Conrad hopes that the children will come away with a deeper appreciation for dogs (and for animals in general) and learn how to be responsible citizens when it comes to the care and safety of Animals.

She, and Mrs. Lightstone, thanked the handlers, Bev Killeen, Sue Field, Daria Izancauk and Tom Tuipan for bringing their beautiful friends to Cherokee, and had the students present little ‘treats’ for their new four-legged friends!

On Thursday, April 10th, Connetquot High School Assistant Principal Mr. Mark Sidman, and Football Coach Michael Hansen, announced the college commitment of 6 senior studentathletes. Hansen, whose ‘Thunderbirds’ reached the Suffolk County Division-I semi-final game against local rival Sachem North, finished the season with an impressive 8-2 record. Hansen credits his seniors with the leadership skills that took the team so far.

The following seniors have made commitments for the Fall of 2014: Marcus Gutierrez will attend Hamilton College (Clinton, NY). Guiterrez is a 3-year varsity player and 2013 team captain. He was a nominee for both the Joe Cipp (Best Running Back in Suffolk County), and Hansen (Best Player in Suffolk County) Awards.

Marcus was also a finalist for the LaBue Award, as the Best Football Scholar-

Athlete in Suffolk County.

Guitierrez was selected 2nd team All-Long Island.

He also participates in Spring Track.

Mike Grimaldi has committed to Mt. Union College (OH) for the upcoming school year.

Grimaldi, another team captain, was a versatile member of the team playing starting Safety, Quarterback and Wide Receiver. Despite an early season injury, Grimaldi showed tremendous resiliency and returned by week 7 to start at Safety, and complete the season.

Mike Ansaldi will attend SUNY Cortland in the Fall.

He was a Wide Receiver and Outside Linebacker for 3 varsity seasons. Ansaldi was selected All-Division; he was also an All-League selection for Coach Drzal’s basketball team.

Chris Beal will attend SUNY Maritime. Chris played Inside Linebacker and Fullback and was one of the team’s leading tacklers. Beal was one

of the team’s defensive leaders. Chris was an AllDivision selection this season; he is also an AllCounty wrestler.

Carlton Woodie has committed to Utica College (NY). Carlton played Wide Receiver and Cornerback this season was considered one of the leading offensive players this season. Woodie is also a member of Connetquot’s Track team.

James Oliver will attend Springfield College (MA) in the Fall. James was a mainstay on the offensive and defensive line. This 3-year varsity studentathlete was also selected as a team captain. Oliver was an All-Division selection this season.

Coach Hansen said that “These young men have been a great source of pride for the coaches, and their families. They will be missed, but we are confident in their success as they move on to the next level.”

June Films At The Library

FARMERS FOR A DAY - Connetquot Central School District’s Sycamore Avenue Elementary School’s second grade students recently took a field trip to Benner’s Farm in Setauket, New York to learn about life on a farm. Four classes of second grade students traveled to the farm where they learned about farm mammals, gardens and seeds, and plants and flowers. The students held baby bunnies and chicks and bottle-fed lambs, goats, and piglets. After touring the farm’s animals and gardens, the students also planted their own seeds to take back to their classrooms and watch as them grow.

These beautiful ‘Therapy’ dogs brought joy, and tranquility, to the very enthusiastic kindergartners.

Therapy dogs are animals that help people just by visiting with them.

Organizations consisting of local volunteers and their especially trained, and tested, dogs visit schools, residential care facilities and hospitals throughout the year. These animals can help people feel less lonely and less depressed. These visits provide a welcome change in the resident’s routine, allowing them to become more active and responsive when these wonderful dogs, and their volunteers, visit with them.

Helen B. Duffield Elementary School PTA hosted it’s annual Family Fun Night on Thursday evening, March 20th.

Duffield Principal Mrs. Lisa Farrell was on hand to welcome students, faculty and community members for a night of awards, history and just plain fun.

Reading Fair posters were on display in the cafeteria with the winning students having been recognized, and presented with certificates. Also in attendance was Mr. Dale Spencer, Curator of the Lake Ronkonkoma Historical Society. Spencer talked with parents and students about the history

of the community, and listened as a few adults recalled traveling from Brooklyn and Queens back in their youth, to the ‘country’, and the beauty of Lake Ronkonkoma. The Historical Society also took part in Duffield’s Parents As Reading Partners (PARP) program this year.

From the cafeteria, parents and students headed towards the school gym where the audience was ‘rocking’ to the sounds of upbeat music, and the bright lights of the ‘Brain Challenge – TV Game Show’ format. Al, the colorful emcee, would be distributing raffle tickets to students and parents

which would be redeemed at the end of the night for a variety of prizes.

In between quiz show competition, Al would challenge the students to show him certain things, along the lines of Let’s Make A Deal. For example, parents were offered raffle tickets if they could carry three of their children up front; carry a spouse, show a chapstick or sunglasses!

It was a fun night with plenty of noise and energy.

Mrs. Farrell thanked the members of the PTA for organizing such a fun night, and look forward to the 2015 edition of Duffield’s Family Fun Night!

Model UN Conference

On Saturday morning, April 5th, over 180 high school students met at Connetquot High School in Bohemia, for the annual Model UN Conference! Hosted by Connetquot’s Model UN Club, advisor Ms. Jennifer Bay, and principal Mr. Gregory Murtha, students representing 13 high schools assumed the role of national ‘Ambassadors’!

According to Ms. Bay, “Students simulate what goes on at the United Nations. They are each assigned to represent a sovereign nation, placed into a committee to discuss important topics and concerns, and make recommendations.”

To keep the student/delegates on their toes, sometimes “… we throw a crisis …”

at them to see how they handle the situation.

Students were assigned to one of seven standing committees.

The April 5th conference began at 8 a.m. with registration and concluded with closing ceremonies at 9 p.m. Ms. Bay said that, “I cannot properly express in words how proud I am of my Model UN-ers! The hard work and dedication that they have shown throughout the year is awe-inspiring. The work they do to tackle current events and world issues is inspirational. I am honored to work with all of them.”

The Model United Nations allows students to step into the shoes of Ambassadors representing

their nations at the UN in Manhattan. Students debate current issues, prepare draft resolutions, plot strategy and negotiate with supporters and adversaries. Students from the following high schools took part in the April 5th Model UN Conference at Connetquot High School: Connetquot, PatchogueMedford, PlainviewOld Bethpage, St. Francis Prep, Malverne, Bay Shore, Bellport, Sayville, Hicksville, Port Washington, Commack and Eastport-South Manor.

Congratulations to all the conscientious students, teachers and administrators for the success of the 2014 Model UN Conference at Connetquot High School.

District Agreement Anthony Felicio, Jr., President of the Connetquot Teachers Association (CTA), announced today the ratification of a longterm contract between his organization and the Connetquot Central School District of Islip.

Felicio explained that, “This was the second year without a contract, but we are pleased with the outcome of the negotiation process. Our members recently ratified the contract overwhelmingly.”

He went on to say, “Recognizing the district’s budgetary constraints due to the 2% tax cap, and with many residents still recovering from the ‘Great Recession,’ this agreement

is fair to both sides, and benefits the community and our members.”

Specifics of the agreement included in the contract running retroactively from 2012 through 2017: • Enhanced email communication between parents and teachers, • Introduction of an electronic grade book • Horizontal movement only one time per year • Five year salary agreement retroactive to 2012 - 0% + full step - 0% + full step - 1.2% + half step - 1.2% + half step - 0% + full step

The agreement includes the introduction of a vision health care plan, enhanced dental plan, and no increase in current maximum medical insurance contribution “With the contract negotiations behind us, we can all focus on the many challenges that lie ahead in the coming months.”

The CTA President went on to thank his membership for its patience and support, and expressed his appreciation to the members of the Connetquot School District Board of Education, and district administrators, for bringing these negotiations to a fair and equitable conclusion.

Athletes Lauded Continued From 5 All-American Team – four of the students had a 3.8 GPA or better.

Individual team awards were distributed for team Most Valuable Player (MVP) and Coach’s Awards to individuals who were not only skilled in their respective sports, but also exhibited leadership qualities that go above and beyond.

Additionally, one athlete was singled out for a new prestigious award – The Gene Farry Award. The honor is named after former Suffolk Men’s Head Basketball and Baseball Coach as well as Athletic Director Gene Farry and awarded to the student athlete who best embodies the qualities and characteristics of team spirit, leadership, commitment and excellence.

Galvin Biggs of Coram, a track team member and Coach’s Award recipient, was presented with the Gene Farry Award.

On Saturday June 7th, County Executive Bellone welcomed approximately 50 Citibank volunteers to Blydenburgh Park for Citibank’s Global Community Day. Volunteerism is a central part of the Citi employee experience, with Citi volunteers regularly engaging in community service year-round Citibank’s Global Community Day spotlights and reinforces

a shared commitment among Citi employees, clients, alumni, family and friends around the world to collaborate and dedicate their time and expertise to local community needs, including literacy and education, housing, environmental stewardship, health and human services, and disaster relief.

Under the leadership of Pat Edwards, Citi Community Development

Long Island Market Manager, volunteers painted and cleaned shelters, painted and replace fences and cleaned up trails at the Blydenburgh campground, which is used by Boy Scouts and other organizations throughout the year.

“I thank Citibank volunteers and IBM Smarter Cities team and colleagues for helping to beautify Blydenburgh Park

and devote their time and resources to the residents of Suffolk County,” County Executive Bellone stated.

The IBM Smarter Cities Team is here in Suffolk County as part of a competitive grant program that sends teams of some of IBM’s most talented experts to select cities and regions worldwide to provide pro bono consulting expertise on the most critical issues faced by communities today.

Currently, the team is assisting Suffolk County with its Reclaim Our Water initiative which is a multi-pronged approach which includes analysis and review of sewering targeted areas, improving existing wastewater infrastructure, and approving advanced onsite wastewater treatment systems.

A Lifetime Of Possessions

Send Us Your Best Pics To Be Featured

By: Peggy Bayer, Islip People came from all around to see what they could see.

They heard she had a lot of things piled high as they could be.

How did she gather all this stuff? It took so many years.

To dispose of it will be quite rough - at least for her in tears.

For each treasured trinket is a sweet memory Of her youth, of her husband, and her children - there were three.

A sweet blue baby blanket from her first baby born.

It may be frayed and tattered and just a little torn.

She does not want to part with it for any price, you see.

Though now adult, he’ll be her baby for eternity.

So now she clings to each old thing feeling quite forlorn.

For people gone now from her life, she still has to mourn.

SUFFOLK ZONE 5 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY JUNE 18, 2014 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

They will be coming with a dumpster and then the moving truck.

She feels as if her life is now running quite amuck.

She hurries to another pile and opens the next box.

A blond curl tied with ribbon - it’s the second baby’s locks.

Someone picks up an old knickknack and offers her ‘a buck.’

And now she feels as though she’s been truly struck.

“Lovely Lotus” Photo by: Elizabeth Mauro, Seaford

You can’t keep all these things they tell her - there just isn’t that much room.

The new place will be better for you, Her heart fills with dread and gloom.

Some photos in an album show her late husband in his youth, A letter to the tooth fairy and the third baby’s first little tooth.

Roses pressed in a book to preserve their bloom, She remembers as a gift from her loving groom.

She found things she had forgotten and didn’t know she had.

Some things made her feel good; others made her sad.

The clay handprint ashtray someone made in camp The high school woodshop project that had become a lamp.

She found handmade greeting cards “To my Mommy and my Dad.” If this was better for her, why did it feel so bad?

This was her life piled up outside she wanted to declare.

She was afraid of all the changes and moving now elsewhere.

Don’t make me feel like I’m a problem - I’m your mother after all.

Don’t be impatient with me or bothered when I call.

She wanted them to know her feelings and to let her know they care.

Please listen to me - my memories I need to share!
