SUFFOLK ZONE 6 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 15, 2017 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

CENTRAL AIR CONDITIONING

The Global Institute at Long Island University (LIU) hosted its first event Thursday night, featuring General Colin L. Powell, USA (Ret.). Introduced by the Institute’s Chairman, former Congressman Steve Israel, Powell discussed his commitment to youth education programs throughout the nation, as well as his service as a four-star General in the United States Army and as the 65th Secretary of State (2001-2005).

“With the launch of this Global Institute, LIU will become a real leader in global affairs,” said Gen. Powell.

“The Institute will bring world leaders to the region, introduce new brands of strategic thinking and problem solving, and assist decision makers here in New York in deepening their understanding of international relations.”

“I can’t think of a better person to kick off the

Global Institute at LIU than an American hero, General Colin Powell,” said Steve Israel, Chairman of the Global Institute at LIU. “Having a living legend as our inaugural guest sets the bar high, and we are looking forward to bringing in some of the brightest, boldest and most forwardthinking leaders – both domestic and international – in order to increase Long Island University’s profile as a leader in national security and global affairs.”

The 25-minute informal question and answer session, which included questions from members of the audience, addressed such topics as General Powell’s service to the Army during the Gulf War, how he handled troubled diplomatic relationships as Secretary of State, and the separation of church and state. Powell also had an opportunity to share his insight on the recent

Proudly Serving The Community Since 1953!

presidential election, President Trump’s budget proposal and the administration’s alleged ties to Russia, as well as how the U.S. and its allies can most effectively fight ISIS. Overall, Powell stressed the importance of diplomacy coupled with strength, emphasizing that building relationships and trust with other nations must play a vital role in American foreign policy.

The crowd of more than 500 people-- which included LIU students and faculty, students from the United States Merchant Marine Academy, and members of the public – gave the General three standing ovations.

“Leaders like General Powell can help guide our University to expand opportunities for study and research and challenge our students to become the next set of visionary leaders,” said Kimberly R.

Looking For Additional Income?

Cline, President of Long Island University. “The philosophy of innovation and entrepreneurial thinking is woven into LIU’s history, and our new Global Institute will help us to carry that tradition to the forefront of world affairs in the 21st Century.”

The Global Institute at LIU will host other prominent leaders throughout the year, such as President Bill Clinton, General (Ret.) David Petraeus, and former CIA Director and Trump Presidential Transition Team member, Jim Woolsey.

Family Fishing Festival The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) and Office of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation (OPRHP) will hold their annual Spring Family Fishing Festival on Saturday, April 1st, at Belmont Lake State Park.

“Freshwater fishing is an activity the whole family can enjoy, especially on Long Island,” DEC Regional Director Carrie M. Gallagher said. “The spring fishing festival at Belmont Lake State Park is an excellent way to kick off the fishing season and introduce the family to the sport. No license is needed to participate.

Festival visitors can learn about freshwater fishing opportunities on Long Island and local fishing clubs, try fishing for trout, participate in the casting contest, and more.”

Additional sponsors for the fishing festival include the Natural Heritage Trust, the Fisherman Magazine, and radio stations 106.1 WBLI and 102.3 WBAB. The festival begins at 10 a.m. and is free of charge. Activities include open fishing, fishing instruction, fly casting demonstrations, and fish cleaning services. DEC and a number of local fishing clubs will have a display and demonstration area, and participants are urged to try their hand at fly casting. Loaner rods and free bait will be available to participants throughout the day. The

supply of loaner rods is limited and participants are encouraged to bring their own fishing tackle if they have it.

Children’s activities also begin at 10 a.m. and include an inflatable slide (weather dependent), the “Spring Fling” casting contest, and hands-on educational displays by DEC’s Education Unit.

Children participating in the casting contest will have a chance to win prizes supplied by DEC’s I FISH NY Program, OPRHP, the Fisherman Magazine, and The Natural Heritage Trust.

To further encourage fishing in New York State, Governor Andrew Cuomo signed legislation in 2012 expanding the opportunity for free fishing clinics and allowing more New Yorkers to experience fishing for the first time with increased DEC free fishing clinics throughout the state. The Free Fishing Days program began in 1991 to enable more people to sample the incredible fishing New York State has to offer.

Governor Cuomo’s NY Open for Fishing and Hunting Initiative, under the 2016-2017 budget, provides $3 million for State land access projects and $4 million for hunting and fishing infrastructure.

The Spring Fishing Festival is a designated Free Fishing Event, so the freshwater fishing license requirement for anglers age 16 and older is suspended for this event.

The festival highlights DEC’s spring (March and April) trout stocking program in Nassau and Suffolk counties. Prior to the festival, DEC and OPRHP will stock Belmont Lake with close to 4,000 brown, brook, and rainbow trout. Upper Twin Pond in Wantagh, Oyster Bay Mill Pond, Massapequa Creek and Reservoir, as well as 17 other Long Island lakes, will also be stocked with trout by DEC, providing excellent prospects for spring fishing in both Nassau and Suffolk counties.

This event will be held rain or shine. Call I FISH NY at 631.444.0283 or Belmont Lake State Park at 631.667.5055 for more information.

A vehicle use fee of $8 will be in effect. Parking is free for Empire Pass holders.

The 2017 Empire Pass can be purchased at state park offices, online at http:// nysparks.com/admission/ empire-passport/ or by phone at 518.474.0458.

For more information about the festival, call I FISH NY at 631.444.0283 or visit DEC’s website at http://www.dec.ny.gov/ outdoor/44804.html.

For information about freshwater fishing on Long Island or the spring trout stocking program in Nassau and Suffolk counties, call the DEC Bureau of Fisheries at 631.444.0280, e-mail fwfish1@dec.ny.gov or visit http://www.dec.ny.gov/ outdoor/7951.html.

stamps from all 9 stores will be entered to win amazing prizes: the grand prize, a $100 gift card from each of the participating stores; or second prize, over $400 of yarn donated by gold sponsor Knitting Fever. Participants who drop off a passport with fewer than 9 stamps will be entered to win a separate drawing. Further prizes will be announced as the yarn crawl approaches!

Special edition Long Island Yarn Crawl bags can be purchased at participating shops, or are available as a free gift with a $40 minimum purchase (while supplies last). Each store has specials planned and will have drawings for door prizes during the crawl. Details will be made available closer to the Yarn Crawl weekend here on our website: http:// longislandyarncrawl.com/ This year’s Yarn Crawl features shops from all

over Nassau & Suffolk counties: • Altman’s Needlearts – Mattituck • Knit – Roslyn • The Knitted Purl – Oyster Bay • The Knitting Cove & Yarn Shop – Port Jefferson • The Knitting Garden – Huntington • The Knitting Place – Port Washington • The Knitting Store – Oceanside • Long Island Livestock Co. – Yaphank • Sew What’s New & Yarn Too! – Islip Special thanks goes out to Long Island’s only yarn distributor Knitting Fever (http://knittingfever.com/) for helping make this event happen as our gold sponsor.

Also, as part of the weekend event we are encouraging participants to give back to the

community by knitting or crocheting hats and blankets for preemies which will be donated to local Long Island Hospitals. More details can be found on our site: http:// longislandyarncrawl.com/ charity-knitcrochet/ New this year: a mystery knit-along and crochetalong! Two cowls have been designed - one knit, one crochet - just for the

yarn crawl. The patterns have been broken up into 9 sections, with one section’s instructions available at each store. Visit all the stores to collect the whole patterns! After the crawl, the patterns will be available on the crawl website as well as on Ravelry.

We hope that yarn crafters of all backgrounds will explore Long Island’s rich

fiber community during the yarn crawl weekend and make connections with fellow crafters. The different offerings and events at each shop are sure to provide crafting inspiration and ideas to all.

It will be a wonderful Long Island celebration for yarn enthusiasts and sure to be an event to remember.

Suffolk Marathon Set track the progress of their favorite runners. The new relay race will be made up of four-member teams running the full marathon.

A Freedom Fest, featuring musical entertainment, and the Taste of Long Island Festival, featuring foods, wines and beers from Long Island, will follow the start of the race.

“Catholic Health Services (CHS) is proud once again to be the Medal of Honor Title Sponsor for the 3rd Annual Catholic Health Services Suffolk County Marathon and partner with Suffolk County, Hunter EMS and Progressive Emergency Physicians to provide race medicine for this landmark event,” said CHS President & CEO Alan Guerci, MD. “More importantly, CHS is proud to continue its support of Suffolk County’s veterans.”

“The Suffolk County Marathon provides us with another opportunity to showcase our beautiful downtowns along the

South Shore – all in an effort to promote fitness and provide much needed funding opportunities to our local veterans,” Suffolk County Legislator Bill Lindsay said.

“Suffolk County has one of the highest veteran populations in the nation, so it’s always a pleasure to support initiatives that give back to those who have sacrificed so much to protect our country. I look forward to another successful marathon.”

“The Suffolk County Marathon has been an incredible opportunity for Suffolk County and I am pleased that it will be returning for its third consecutive year. I am very proud that over the past two years we have raised a lot of money for veterans and I am excited for the chance to do so again this year,” said Deputy Presiding Officer Rob Calarco.

“Many communities in my district are along the race route, including having Patchogue Village serve as the start and finish for

the race. So it gives the race a special meaning to me because it allows these great areas a chance to show off what makes them so special.”

A number of individuals and teams raised funds for other good causes, running with the support of sponsors. Among them was Matt Harbin of Kings Park, who raised $1,500 for research on Epidermolyis Bullosa, a group of inherited connective tissue diseases that cause severe blisters in the skin. Other teams raised funds for a nursing scholarship, to support organ transplant recipients and anti-drunk driving efforts.

“Thank you to the Suffolk County Marathon for having such a great platform for individuals to do their part in making a difference,” Harbin said. “I look forward to participating in this year’s race as well.”

“We are excited to be part of the Suffolk County Marathon 2017 kickoff,” said Dori Scofield of Paws of War, which received a

grant from the 2015 race.

“The funds we received will support local veterans and dogs in training at Paws of War.” The marathon course will again begin in Patchogue Village and pass through the heart of the downtowns of Bayport, Sayville, Blue Point and Heckscher State Park, and finish back in Patchogue Village in order to provide more water and scenic views. Race organizers will work with local businesses, civic associations and chambers of commerce to organize watch parties and events along the route.

“We’re really looking forward to promoting the Catholic Health Services’ 3rd Annual Suffolk County Marathon and Freedom Fest,” said Discover Long Island President & CEO, Kristen Jarnagin. “Not only does this event bring in many out-of-state visitors to enjoy all our island has to offer, but it also encourages locals to get out and experience home-grown flavors and

fare. Anytime an event can draw a crowd from both near and far, it’s a win for the region.”

The race will also have a special veterans category for all active military, reserve and retired veterans.

Runners who can’t make it to the race are invited to sign up as virtual run participants, eligible for t-shirts and medals.

The marathon is also part of the Long Island Track & Field Grand Prix Race series. All members of LITF are eligible to participate on an individual basis and are awarded points according to how high their score is in their age group. They are also eligible to participate as part of a LITF registered team. Top finishers are awarded merchandise prizes. The half marathon is an individual race and the Marathon is a team race.

For more information about the race, see http:// www.suffolkmarathon.com

Suffolk County Executive Steve Bellone announced Monday that the expanded Catholic Health Services third annual Suffolk County Marathon will take place Sunday October 29th, starting and ending in Patchogue.

The marathon, half marathon, 5K and newly added marathon relay races support organizations serving veterans living in Suffolk County. The race is also a qualifier for the 2019 Boston Marathon.

The 2016 race, with 2,677 registered runners, raised $140,000 for veterans’ organizations.

“This event is a great opportunity to support the veterans who have sacrificed so much to our community,” the County Executive said. “Because of these races, we are able to bring a spotlight onto their contributions and raise funds that will provide services for veterans in need.”

The race will also feature a GPS application that will allow people to

“We on the East End are looking forward to welcoming the world’s top golfers to the beautiful and historic Shinnecock Golf Club, which has hosted a US open in three different centuries, stated Legislator Bridget Fleming. “Along with County Executive Bellone, Mayor Epley, Southampton Town officials and local leaders, my office is ready to assist to reduce any inconveniences so that the community and local businesses can fully benefit from the enormous economic opportunities and prestige associated with the U.S. Open.”

“The history, heritage, and natural beauty of the Shinnecock Hills Golf Club make it both a local and national treasure,” remarked Southampton Town Supervisor Jay Schneiderman. “We look forward to once again hosting this prestigious tournament and bringing some of the world’s most talented athletes to the East End.” “Long Island is a world-class destination and not just because of the incredible sporting facilities and premiere courses like Shinnecock Hills Golf Club.” said Jennifer Rothman, Sports Development Manager for Discover Long Island, “We are excited to partner with the USGA on this prestigious event to help promote local businesses and showcase to 2018 US Open attendees as well as the world at large what makes our island such a special place to visit.”

“All of us at Shinnecock are delighted to be able to welcome back, and work with, our friends at the USGA and, we feel greatly honored to be able to welcome the world’s greatest golf Championship back to Southampton, stated Nicholas Conlin, General Manager-Shinnecock Hills Golf Club. ” Tickets for the 2018 U.S.

Open are anticipated to go on sale to the general public in June 2017, approximately one year in advance to the event.

The event is expected to further drive the region’s $5.5 billion tourism industry as more than 200,000 spectators are expected to attend the 2018 U.S. Open.

“At the heart of our Championship, will be the support of around 5,000 volunteers. Since the launch of volunteer registration in early January, we’ve seen tremendous interest and support from the region.

For more information please visit 2018volunteers.usga.org.”

Emblem Presented

The Sound of Music

SUFFOLK ZONE 6 - NEIGHBOR NEWSPAPERS - WEDNESDAY MARCH 15, 2017 • www.southbaysneighbor.com

Rocky Point High School student-actors and musicians recently took to the stage to bring the beloved Rodgers and Hammerstein musical “The Sound of Music” to life.

The students dazzled

The first eleven points of the Boy Scout Law must be demonstrated in order to go from one rank to the next, including Eagle.

The 12th point - “A Scout is Reverent” - can be demonstrated in a variety of ways including the earning of the religious award of the Scout’s individual faith.

As with all the religious emblems, these are not an award for Scouting skills, but rather an emblem authorized by the Boy Scouts of America to be worn on the Scout’s uniform after satisfactory completion of the necessary requirements.

For the 8 to 11 year-told Cub Scouts, the Aleph Emblem requires seven areas of study, including Torah, prayers, religious

holidays, the synagogue or temple, Bible heroes, famous American Jews, and the land of Israel.

In observance of the 12th point of the Scout Law, Boy Scout Robert Sherter of Boy Scout Troop 221 (Manorville) and previously of Cub Scout Pack 221 (Manorville) was presented with the Aleph Emblem on March 5th at the Suffolk County Council’s Jewish Committee on Scouting’s annual Awards and Recognition Breakfast, held at Temple Beth Chai of Hauppauge, by JCOS Member Jan Rose.

Boy Scout Sherter was presented with a medal, certificate, a purple and silver “scouting religious emblem knot” (to be sewn onto his uniform), and a special Jewish Committee

on Scouting kippah (skullcap). He had been previously presented and recognized with earning his Aleph Emblem at his Cub Scout Pack’s Blue and Gold Luncheon on February 4th, 2017 at Rock Hill Golf & Country Club in Manorville, New York.

Boy Scout Robert Sherter of Troop 221 (Manorville) is the son of Shari and Doug Sherter and the grandson of Marty & Dina Koval of Coram and Sidney & Selma Sherter of Hampton Bays. As a Webelos Cub Scout of Cub Scout Pack 221 (Manorville), he had crossed the bridge to become a member of Boy Scout Troop 221 (Manorville) last month during the Blue and Gold Dinner.

audiences of all ages with their talents as they eloquently told the familiar story of Captain von Trapp, his large family of children and their witty governess living in Austria before the Anschluss. From the familiar tunes of “The Hills

are Alive” to “My Favorite Things,” the students’ well choreographed dance routines and vocal performances entertained audiences during their multinight run, including a free performance for local senior citizens.

Swimmer Wins States Rocky Point High School senior Chris O’Shea won the 100-meter fly event at this year’s New York State Swimming and Diving Championships. His time of 48.76 in the event also earned him for AllAmerican status.

Throughout his swimming career, Chris has amassed numerous

swimming accolades.

During this year’s state championship, he also placed second in the 100-meter backstroke with a time of 49.26 and was recognized by NYSPHSAA as an All-State Scholar Athlete.

The Rocky Point School District congratulates Chris on his countless

accomplishments and wishes him best of luck as he continues his athletic journey at Eastern Michigan University, where he plans to major in Exercise Science/Athletic Training in addition to taking part in the school’s swimming program.

Wrapped in the spirit of softness Illumined by the scattering of clouds Wanting to push through night’s passion Evening explodes into a kaleidoscope of hues The quarter moon vies with Venus at its side Appears slyly grinning its half smile Its brilliance rises again to break through Steely encumbrances of cloudy obscurity Deepened by the muted light of sundown as Brilliance outshines darkness at every corner.

In Times Like These By: John McGowan

In times like these When dissension looms Let’s put aside our differences And repair the gloom After all as a nation we are truly one We’ve done it before so let us shun The bickering, the anger and all the unrest And put our mettle to the the test By doing so we will unite Defending our freedom and doing it right.

P.J. Gelinas Junior High School Principal William Bernhard has earned one of the highest honors in higher education from the New York State SUNY Chancellor and President of Stony Brook University – the Chancellor’s Award for Excellence in Adjunct

teaching for the academic year 2016-2017.

This award recognizes those Stony Brook University faculty members – at which Mr. Bernhard has taught for numerous years – who have consistently demonstrated a mastery of teaching, a dedication

to students, the adherence to the highest academic standards, and continued professional achievements.

“To have been nominated for the SUNY Chancellor’s Excellence in Teaching award by both the Mathematics Department and Applied Mathematics and Statistics Department at Stony Brook University is truly an honor,” said Mr. Bernhard. “To have actually received this recognition is a highlight of my career.

Teaching and learning is my passion and I hope to continue to convey that to all of the students and staff that I work with in the Three Village community.”

Awards Captured Rocky Point Middle School’s Radical Robotix Robotic team has taken on this year’s competition season with much success and most recently earned high honors at the Long Island Championships held at Longwood High School.

Going up against 40 of the best FIRST Lego League Robotics teams from across Long Island, Rocky Point’s Radical Robotix team won the prestigious “Innovative Solution Award” for their project design of a “Pet Rescue Door.” This project

design is one that would automatically open a door when triggered by a smoke detector or CO detector.

The team built a working prototype based on their inspiration from the tragic events of a local family who suffered the loss of a pet during a home fire.

In addition, the project was so well-received and the students’ presentation was found to be exceptional that the judges also presented the team with the “Global Innovation Award.”

This award in essence nominates the team to submit their project for

further recognition and for the chance to compete in the national competition held in Washington, D.C. in June.

The district congratulates the following team members along with their coaches Mark Moorman and assistant coach Dorothy Burns.

Spring and Things By: Jamie Lynn Ryan

‘Tis the time of year when all become Irish for a day, in the honorary sense anyway, and partake in the various St. Patrick’s Day celebrations held across Long Island and New York City.

The funny thing is – well, perhaps more ironic than outright humorous – is that when my family and I traveled to Ireland several years ago, we were somewhat surprised to learn that those native to the Emerald Isle do not commemorate the occasion in even remotely the same manner as we do. In fact, the holiday takes on a far more religious tone, filled with pilgrimages to mountaintops to honor St. Patrick himself; a far cry from the drinking and parades which wind through most main streets on this side of the pond.

Speaking of Ireland, and travel, I certainly wish to do more of it, both here and abroad. Before our family trip, I had never been on a plane in my 30 years on this earth; nor, of course, had I bothered to apply for a passport. Old-fashioned road trips across the good old U.S. of A had never held much appeal due to my, shall we say, occasional tendency toward motion sickness during any car ride surpassing two or so hours. And so, at this point, my travels have extended ever so slightly north and south of New York, about halfway down the east coast – no further. And my passport, while it proudly sports that one stamp from Ireland, has remained packed away ever since. Unacceptable, I know.

And with that, a new season is on the horizon, although whether Mother Nature will

cooperate remains to be seen.

March has always been a notoriously fickle month, what with the remnants of winter storms to contend with, spring rains hovering overhead and blossoms waiting to burst forth from the trees. It is a time of beginnings, of growth, of shaking off the chill of the last several months to head out and feel the warmth of the sun as we explore the great outdoors. No need to pack a suitcase – just hop in the car and go, in any direction, and enjoy the beauty on this long island that we call home.

So, as you head out in your green attire this week, take a deep breath of fresh air and start planning some fun activities to see you through to summer. Spring may be a gateway to the season of sun and surf and sand, but it is pretty spectacular in its own right. Enjoy it.

Special Tribute On the first day of March, in order to kickstart Women’s History Month, Legislator Leslie Kennedy had the distinct privilege of taking part in Brookhaven’s Tribute to Women in Commerce and Professions, which was hosted at the Holiday Inn Express in Stony Brook.

The event was held to honor the great women we have here in our community who have achieved success in their professional lives, and the many programs that are locally available to help women who are in

need. Brookhaven also established the 1st Annual “Edna Gerrard Excelsior Award” and honored 19 women of distinction for 2016, who are members of Decisions, a women’s empowerment group that helps women succeed.

Brookhaven has many women’s groups such as a domestic violence group, women’s support groups and divorce information classes; they also have a “Dress For Success” program that has clothed almost 5,000 women with business professional clothes.

“It was a privilege to be a part of this event to honor and support women; there are so many amazing women in my community.

I am so proud of all that Decisions does in support of women,” said Legislator Kennedy.

For more information about this event or other events in the community, please call our office at 631.854.3735 or log onto Legislator Kennedy’s Facebook page at facebook.com/ legislatorlesliekennedy.
