The next couple of months are packed with celebrations, including high school and college proms and graduations. When planning any outdoor festivities, PSEG Long Island urges customers to think carefully about how they handle Mylar balloons.

Though they can make a party more festive, Mylar balloons can also cause power outages when they get loose and come in contact with electrical equipment.

The distinctive metallic coating on Mylar balloons conducts electricity. Because of this, when a Mylar balloon comes in contact with a power line, it can cause a short circuit. This short circuit can lead to power outages, fires and possible injuries.

To reduce the risk of outages and injuries, residents should keep the following safety tips in mind: • Mylar balloons and other decorations should be kept away from overhead power lines and all utility equipment.

• Make sure balloons are secured to a weight that is heavy enough to prevent them from floating away. Keep balloons tethered and attached to the weights at all times.

• Always dispose of Mylar balloons by safely puncturing the balloon in several

METRO/CREATIVE CONNECTIONS

places to release the helium that otherwise could cause the balloon to float away.

• Never touch a power line. Do not attempt to retrieve a balloon, toy or other type of debris that is entangled in an overhead power line. Call PSEG Long Island to report the problem at 800-490-0075 so crews can remove the item safely.

St. James residents refuse to sell iconic firehouse

BY SARA-MEGAN WALSH SARA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

June 19 vote

SARA-MEGAN WALSH

St. James residents have spoken: The iconic Route 25A firehouse will remain firmly in the hands of the taxpayers.

The taxpayers of the St. James Fire District voted down the June 19 public referendum which would have sold the fire station to St. James Fire Department for $500,000 by 792498 votes.

“The St. James Fire District Board of Commissioners thanks all residents who voted in today’s referendum,” said Commissioner Ed Springer, Sr. in a statement Tuesday night.

“The board will reconvene and discuss its next steps for the future of the Route 25A firehouse and use of its space.”

St. James resident Troy Rosasco, founder of Citizens for a Safer St. James, led roughly a dozen residents in a rally against the sale of the historic fire station June 16. Citizens alongside local firefighters took up positions on the triangular grassy median at the intersection of Lake Avenue and Route 25A bearing signs that read, “We must protect this house, vote no,” and other slogans.

“The people of St. James have once again overwhelmingly said they want to maintain control of the main firehouse,” Rosasco said, whose home is in the Village of Head of the Harbor. “We all own the main firehouse and want to continue to see it as a working firehouse for the foreseeable future so that

both St. James and Head of the Harbor are adequately protected.”

Suffolk County police said that they received several 911 calls at approximately 10:20 a.m. Saturday reporting the picketers were impeding vehicular traffic. A patrol unit was dispatched to the scene where officers said they did not observe any protestors impacting traffic and advised the group they could continue as long as they did not disturb traffic flow.

Many rally attendees said they were distrustful of what fate might befall the Route 25A firehouse if entrusted to the hands of the St. James Volunteer Fire Department — a nonprofit organization representing

approximately 100 volunteers for fire and emergency response services.

“It’s an organization of private individuals,” Augie Cocuzza, a resident of Fairfield at St. James apartment complex said. “They could do whatever they want with it.”

St. James firefighters launched a public campaign encouraging citizens to vote “yes” June 19 to put the firehouse back into the hands of its volunteer members.

“It is imperative,” said Kevin Barattini, a fire department spokesman.

In a public Facebook statement made June 15, the group had promised to protect the building if the sale went through, by amending its organizational constitution.

At left, a rally outside St. James Route 25A firehouse June 16.

“People need to realize this firehouse isn’t going anywhere, it will always remain a firehouse,” Barattini said.”

The spokesman said the department was concerned about misinformation and “blatant lies” circulating prior to the vote. He said firemen reported hearing that the sale would allegedly lead to an increase in taxes or that the building would later be sold for profit to CVS or another business — an option he said hasn’t been entertained in years.

“Prior to selling it to the fire district in 2013, the fire department heard pitches from other entities including CVS but those

TOWN

Smithtown Animal Shelter nets $168K grant for TNR building Town of Smithtown officials and animal advocates are purring over a new addition to the town animal shelter that will help mitigate the local feral cat issue.

The Town of Smithtown Animal Shelter has received a New York State grant that it plans to use to build a new trap, neuter and release building on Middle Country Road. The TNR building will be separate from the main shelter in an effort to keep feral cats, also known as community cats, which may have fleas or spread infection or disease to the other animals, privately sequestered.

“The isolation is important because some of these cats are going to be sick, they’re going to have fleas — this actually separates these [community cats] from our current cats in the building that are up for adoption,” said Denise Vival, a town animal control officer.

Town officials voted to accept the $168,750 grant at their June 12 board meeting. The town will pull matching funds equal to 25 percent of the grant, or approximately $56,250, from the town’s capital budget to complete the project.

Town spokeswoman Nicole Gargiulo said the town is already soliciting contractor bids for the design and construction of the TNR building. The state grant funds will become available in early 2019 and the town hopes to begin construction immediately, according to Gargiulo.

“This grant will help us to keep our

Town of Smithtown Animal Shelter and Adoption Center adoptable pets healthy while humanely and effectively controlling the free-roaming cat population through our spay, neuter and release program,” Councilwoman Lisa Inzerillo (R) said.

The nonprofit American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals’ website advises shelters to have a TNR program to deal with feral cats, or cats that have adapted to living in small communities in the wild rather than indoors. A TNR program helps stabilize cat populations as well as prevent the spread of disease, according to the ASPCA’s website.

Vival estimates the Town of Smithtown has approximately 30 to 40 different colonies

of community cats, each of which contains anywhere from 10 to 30 cats of different breeds. Without programs such as TNR, cat populations can quickly get out of control.

“We have around 80 cats in foster [care] right now, and if you release them on the street and you don’t spay and neuter them, 80 turns into a ridiculous amount,” said Kathy Giglio, a kennel attendant at the shelter.

Vival said the town’s current TNR program, which operates behind a closed door in the back of the shelter, has six cages that each house two to three cats at a time. The shelter has a waiting list of two to three weeks before they will be able to trap and

neuter different cat colonies across the town.

The wait time is a problem because cats could become pregnant or give birth in that time, according to Vival. With the new building, the shelter would be able to quadruple the number of cats it can hold.

Animal rights advocate Diane Madden from the protest group Hope for Hempstead Shelter said the creation of a TNR building in the Smithtown sets up a service other government-run shelters lack.

“I wish that every town would put together a program such as this because that’s how overwhelming the amount of cats there are out there,“ Madden said.

“TNR is the best, most humane way to deal with the community cat problem.”

The grant is part of a $5 million fund created

by New York State Gov. Andrew Cuomo (D) that gave out awards to 14 animal shelters and humane societies across New York State. The grant is funded by the state’s 2018 budget.

“These grants were awarded to shelters specifically that have made strides to improve the treatment, training and medical care of all our animal guests,” Chief John Valentine, director of Smithtown’s public safety department said. “Building a TNR structure will give strays and rescued animals a state-of-the-art facility to comfortably isolate and medically assess them for adoption and spay/neuter release programs.”

The new building will be installed on the south side of the property, behind the main facility and east of the office trailer the shelter installed in 2017.

Study: St. James Fire District should not have held June 19 vote

BY SARA-MEGAN WALSH SARA@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

SARA-MEGAN WALSH

St. James Fire District’s board of fire commissioners had been professionally advised not to move forward with the June 19 public referendum to sell the iconic Route 25A firehouse at this time.

The board of fire commissioners publicly released the 71-page “Final Report Review of Fire Rescue Stations and Service Capabilities” June 15. The study was conducted by third-party RFG Fire Rescue Consulting, dated May 28, just days before the June 19 vote. The two-part study was aimed at evaluating several concerns of the community including the sale of the Route 25A firehouse, a functional evaluation of both fire stations capacity and whether the district’s proposal to consolidate services would affect emergency response times.

The top recommendation of Ron Graner, a public safety consultant with RFG Fire Rescue Consulting who prepared the report, strongly advised the district against moving forward with the June 19 referendum to sell the building to the St. James Fire Department — a 501(c)(3) organization of the volunteers who act as firefighters and emergency rescue services.

“It is my professional opinion and strong specific recommendation that the fire commission should take no specific action to conduct a public referendum to sell this property at this time,” reads page 10 of the study.

The St. James Route 25A firehouse Graner strongly recommended the fire district should assemble a strategic planning committee made up of community members, emergency responders, fire department and fire district members to weigh in on the future of the building and the fire district. In addition, the consultant suggested the Route 25A firehouse should be made a community landmark, no matter who owns it in the future, and should seek status as a national historic structure.

Town of Smithtown Councilman Tom Lohmann (R-Smithtown) has been working with the St. James Fire Department to ensure the building gets registered on the National Register of Historic Places, and was placed on New York State’s registry in 1978.

The district commissioners released a statement addressing why they had not released the initial study up until this point.

“While it is our goal to be transparent with the community, we have not released the initial draft until this point due to concerns over methodology used and validity of the information provided within,” reads a statement from the fire commissioners. “We have repeatedly asked to meet in person with the consultant to review our concerns and seek clarification on some of the recommendations; as of this date however, we have not been granted a meeting.”

As such, the fire district officials said the study and its findings will not be adopted until questions are answered and clarification

is obtained from RFG Fire Rescue Consulting.

St. James residents said the late release of the third-party study days before the June 19 vote was unfair, leaving concerned residents not enough time to fully read through and digest the report.

“They’ve been asked to provide data for two months, three months and they did not,” Augie Cocuzza said. “We want time to make an informed decision.”

Cocuzza and others suggested the June 19 vote may have been better received by the community if postponed a few months to allow for a community discussion of the study’s results.

Other findings of the study included that neither of the fire district’s current buildings — Route 25A firehouse or the Jefferson Avenue substation — address the service needs of the firefighters or the need to recruit more and younger volunteers. It did however conclude that fire rescue response time to the Village of Head of the Harbor would fall within nationally acceptable standards from either firehouse.

In addition, Graner opined he agreed with residents who rejected the $12.25 million capital bond proposed in September 2017 to build a new firehouse as the size and style of the structure did not reflect the feel of the neighborhood.

NY Senate looks to rename stretch of Jericho after Commack fireman

VOTE talks were stopped after 2011,” Barattini said. “That’s seven years ago, people in the community have to let that go.”

The St. James Fire Department did not respond to requests for comment immediately following the June 19 referendum.

The district had purchased the building from the volunteer fire department in 2013 with the original intentions of operating it as a fire station in addition to the Jefferson Avenue substation and make necessary repairs. Since then, two proposed capital bond referendums have failed — the first in 2013 and the second request for $12.25 million in September 2017.

The outcome of the June 19 referendum closely resembles the polling totals of the September 2017 capital bond vote. There was a slight increase in ballots cast, up from 1,234

A woman parked her 2017 Honda in the lot at Marshalls department store, located on Nesconset Highway in Stony Brook, June 2nd. An unknown person then broke the rear passenger side window of the vehicle at some point between 1 and 3:20 p.m., stealing a handbag from the car.

A man then allegedly used a credit card from the stolen bag later the same day at Macy’s, located at Smith Haven Mall in Lake Grove, to make purchases totalling approximately $1,500.

votes to 1,290 votes, but the split of residents’ opinions remains relatively unchanged — a small increase from 775 to 792 against, and from 459 votes to 498 votes for.

St. James resident John Rowan, who resides on Jefferson Avenue, said it was clear to him what the point of friction is.

“My biggest thing is they don’t bring the community to the table to discuss this,” he said. “Even though they say they have, they never have.”

Rowan attended the May 30 public forum held at Smithtown High School East about the June 19 referendum, where he said fire commissioners restricted public questions and comments to two minutes per person, stifling the community’s discussion of the issues. He recommended that in the future, St. James fire commissioners host a town-hall-style meeting to listen to what residents have to say on the future of the Route 25A firehouse.

“That’s all they needed to do,” Rowan said. “It could easily be a win-win situation for everyone.”

Police suspect the above-pictured man of allegedly stealing goods in Commack

SCPD

New York State legislators are looking to honor one of Commack’s bravest by renaming a road he frequently traveled in service to his community.

New York State Sen. John Flanagan (REast Northport) announced June 13 that the state Senate has approved legislation that will rename a portion of Jericho Turnpike in honor of Commack resident Christopher Raguso, who lost his life earlier this year serving our nation in Iraq. The legislation, which Flanagan sponsored, will affect a 7-mile stretch of Route 25, from East Deer Park Road in Dix Hills east to St. Johnland Road in Smithtown as the “Lt. Christopher J. Raguso FDNY-CFD Memorial Highway.”

“The renaming of this roadway will serve as a reminder of the service and dedication of Lt. Raguso to all who travel through this area. While the word hero is sometimes overused, it is a truly fitting description to the life of Lt. Raguso who lived a selfless life of dedication to others,” Flanagan said. “It is my hope that this honor helps to express the deep appreciation our community has for his brave service.”

Raguso was one of seven members of New York’s 106th rescue unit killed in the line-of-duty March 15 when an HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter crashed while carrying out a mission in support of Operation Inherent

Resolve, an American-led mission to defeat ISIS in Iraq and Syria, according to the U.S. Department of Defense.

In addition to serving in the U.S. military, Raguso joined the Commack Fire Department in 2000. He served as captain of Company 2 before stepping up as lieutenant of Company 4, located off Kings Park Road. Raguso was posthumously bestowed the rank of honorary fire chief based on a unanimous vote of the Commack Fire Department’s membership March 16.

The 7-mile long stretch of state roadway that will be renamed in Raguso’s honor includes the site of Commack Fire Department’s main headquarters, located at 6309 Jericho Turnpike in Commack.

Raguso was also a 13-year veteran of the FDNY, where he served the majority of his career with Ladder Company 113 in Brooklyn.

He rose to the rank of lieutenant and was stationed with Battalion 50 in Queens at the time of his death. On six different occasions, he was cited for bravery and life-saving actions either for his individual actions or as part of a unit.

Raguso is survived by his wife, Carmela, and two young daughters, Eva and Mila.

If it is approved by the state Assembly, commemorative signage will be installed on the roadway. However, the official roadway name will remain unchanged to help avoid confusion and to limit any possible disruption of commerce, according to Flanagan.

Suffolk County Crime Stoppers and 2nd Precinct Crime Section officers are seeking the public’s help to identify and locate a man who allegedly stole merchandise from stores in Dix Hills and Commack in May. The man allegedly stole assorted hygiene and cosmetic products from CVS, located on Jericho Turnpike in Dix Hills, May 26, at approximately 4:00 p.m. The same man allegedly stole assorted hair care products from CVS, located on Commack Road in Commack, at approximately 4:20 p.m. The man was described as heavy set and Hispanic, with a chin strap beard.

A reward of up to $5,000 for information leading to an arrest is being offered by Suffolk County Crime Stoppers. Anyone with information about this incident can submit an anonymous tip by calling 800-220-TIPS (8477) or texting SCPD and the message to CRIMES (274637).

EDUCATION

BY AMANDA PERELLI Kings Park students are going digital in the national debate on mental health issues to raise awareness among their peers and inform community leaders.

Students in Kings Park school district worked to create a nearly 31-minute video to spread mental health awareness in the community and with elected officials.

The Superintendent’s Council is a group of more than 30 Kings Park students from grades four through 12. The council is made up of approximately four students per grade, who are elected by their peers in fourth grade and remain a part of the council through graduation.

Timothy Eagen, superintendent of Kings Park school district, said that this year’s council was focused on the issues of students and their mental health. The students invited Suffolk County Legislator Rob Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) to a council meeting in March, where he spoke about his role in local government. As a result of that meeting, council members decided to create a video covering stress and anxiety; vaping, smoking, and substance use/abuse; and online safety to raise awareness of mental health in the community.

“They are just a great group of student leaders that I use to bounce ideas off of and pick their brains and insights from a student perspective,” Eagen said. “We’ve got to talk about mental health, a big conversation not only in Kings Park, but all around the country.”

The students filmed themselves, teachers and their classmates in the district for the video. Several Kings Park staff members who assisted include district Assistant Superintendent Ralph Cartisano; Rudy Massimo, principal of R.J.O. Intermediate School; Ken Ferrazzi, assistant principal at William T. Rogers Middle School; and Danielle Thompson, technology integration specialist, helped the students create the video which was filmed on iPhones and iPads. Thompson then edited and pieced together the footage using iMovie.

“We broke it into different groups, and being that I am one of the participants of the Superintendents Council, I worked with middle school students on drug and alcohol abuse, including vaping,” Massimo said.

The entire video, from the script to where they filmed, was driven by the students. They filmed parts in areas of the building where students might go to do things against school policy, including the stairwells, bathrooms and basement. They used their smartphones to gather information and read off of them like a script. Throughout filming, the students had one goal — to get their peers to listen, according to Massimo.

“Mr. Trotta was the first audience that the kids had to show off their video,” Eagen said. “We have it posted to our website and we’ve also shared it with our elected officials, so they can best understand how our students are feeling.”

Massimo said he has plans to show pieces of the video in the fourth- and fifth-grade classrooms next year.

“What the kids say is that they are tired of the same kind of information coming to them,” he said. “If they hear it from their peers, it means more. If we can get the students to share what they are experiencing, just encourage them to speak about it, share with somebody that they are struggling with something, just to get out of that trouble, maybe we can save a life or two.”

The student council’s video can be viewed or downloaded on the district’s website at www.kpcsd.org/apps/video.

HISTORY

Former Yankee, St. James resident plays in Old-Timers’ Day game “Mickey Mantle, he was my idol. It was very hard to play baseball at 19 when you’re sitting next to your idol.”

These are the words of former Major League Baseball player Frank Tepedino, now 70, on his earliest experiences playing for the New York Yankees. He was able to enjoy a blast-from-the-past type weekend at Yankee Stadium in the Bronx this past Sunday, June 17, with friends and family on hand to cheer him on.

The St. James resident grew up playing baseball within the streets and parks of Brooklyn with many family members who were also talented ballplayers.

As early as 16 years old, Tepedino received attention from professional scouts who took notice of his exceptional skills.

During the mid-1960s, the young hitter was becoming increasingly feared for his consistency to hit well against opposing pitchers. As a teenager, Tepedino played for the Brooklyn Cadets, an amateur baseball squad that defeated other competitive teams in the city and on Long Island. Fifteen of the 20 players on the team were drafted by major league clubs.

As a 17-year-old who developed a dynamic swing, he was drafted 33rd overall in the country by the Baltimore Orioles. Some of the earliest scouting information compiled on Tepedino was gathered by former Yankee manager Joe Torre’s father, Joe Sr., who reported on his considerable abilities.

Once he was signed by Baltimore, Tepedino earned a $50,000 bonus that was immediately given to his parents to move them into a new home.

The descendent of a traditional Italian family, got his earliest professional experience in a small West Virginia town.

He moved rapidly through the Orioles farm system in an age when scouting reports on opposing pitchers weren’t as abundant as today.

“You had to trust your own skills and continue to learn about the game from your coaches and older players,” Tepedino said.

As it has been his custom to speak to thousands of students during his retirement, Tepedino always mentions that he had the “God-given ability to hit the ball consistently.”

Former Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Fred Cambria said he believed Tepedino had “one of the best swings that you could ever see and he was a gentleman from the moment that we met some decades ago in baseball.”

As many other ballplayers experienced in that era, Tepedino had to take a stint away from the game to serve his country. During the height of the Vietnam War in the late 1960s, the Orioles’ management instructed their better players to try to enlist into the Army Reserve or the National Guard. This allowed their prospects to still serve in the Armed Forces and to play baseball at the same time. Tepedino enlisted into the Marine Corps and while he was at Parris Island, South Carolina, his mother wrote him and sent a press clipping that he was exposed in the rule 5 draft by

At 19 years old, Tepedino sat next to the very players he idolized, listening to on the radio and watching at the stadium as a kid. During a spring training game, he sprained his ankle sliding into a base and was told to have it checked out in the locker room. While Tepedino was resting, the legendary Yankee Clipper, Joe DiMaggio, enquired about his injury. He later had hitting conversations with Red Sox great Ted Williams, was given conditioning training

by Olympian Jesse Owens, and met former president and general, Dwight Eisenhower.

Tepedino, who was just old enough to drive a car at the time, earned his first hit against Jim “Mudcat” Grant and homered against Catfish Hunter of the Athletics. He also had a front seat in history, watching Mantle famously hobble around the bases when he hit his 500th career home run in 1967. But the path to gain regular playing time was a difficult one with formidable teammates of Joe Pepitone, John Ellis, Ron Blomberg and the aging Mantle to compete against.

According to Tepedino’s wife Lori, the annual Old-Timers’ Day game and surrounding events the Yankees have hosted for decades allowed her husband to speak with former Yankee Elston Howard’s wife, Arlene. As a young man, Howard who was the first African-American to play on the Yankees, a league most valuable player and later a longtime coach in the organization kept a supportive eye on Tepedino to help the youthful hitter adjust to the difficulties of the major leagues.

On the field and in the club house, Tepedino was always known for his easy demeanor and this was seen through his close friendships with Yankee greats

like Thurmon Munson, Bobby Murcer, Willie Randolph and Bobby Cox. Later in his career, he was on the same team with Atlanta Braves star Hank Aaron, and once again witnessed an historic achievement from the field when Hammerin’ Hank slugged his 715th career home run in 1974, surpassing Babe Ruth.

Tepedino retired from baseball in 1978, opening a new chapter in his life that eventually led him to be hired by the New York City Fire Patrol. To make ends meet, he was a longtime employee of Port Jeff Sports, where he screen printed many of the jerseys worn by the local kids who played every type of sport. While working behind the counter he was known for giving a helping hand to fathers and sons in picking which bat and glove would best suit them.

Armed with a big smile, Tepedino was always known to help others, especially when it came to baseball.

When America was attacked on Sept. 11, 2001, Tepedino, along with thousands of other rescue workers, rushed into the city to help those that were suffering from the earliest moments of the attack. The former Yankee worked 24-hour tours during which he opened manhole covers, searched for trapped people and aided in the painful process of cleaning up lower Manhattan.

“Tepedino on a regular basis strongly represents the goodness of professional athletes to help with vital social, educational and veterans’ endeavors,” said Joseph Cognitore, commander of VFW Post 6249 in Rocky Point.

As a New York Yankee and a rescue worker, Tepedino was asked by his former team to throw out the first pitch during the divisional playoffs against the Oakland Athletics in 2001. Some 17 years later, he was back on the field to wear

the pinstripes once again to play in the Old-Timers’ Day game. It has always been observed by Tepedino’s youngest daughter, Danielle, that her dad is “always wanting to make all of the people around him smile.” His big smile could be seen across the baseball diamond as Tepedino played first base, and he wished every Yankee that ran in his direction a Happy Father’s Day. From the moments that he dominated the sandlot fields in Brooklyn to this past weekend, Tepedino has always held his head high and has been a special citizen who has aided others inside and outside of the baseball lines.

Sheriff’s office passing out free drug, alcohol testing kits

BY KYLE BARR KYLE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

‘This is a oncein-a-lifetime moment, but please be responsible in your actions.’

Local schools have long tried to curb drug and alcohol use at prom while still trying to ensure graduating classes celebrate the final days before graduation.

Frank Pugliese said in his first year as principal of Shoreham-Wading River High School, he hopes his students can enjoy prom while staying safe.

“We strongly advise all students to always make appropriate decisions,” Pugliese said in an email. “With that being said, we have great students. The vast majority make smart choices regardless of the policies in place, and we trust that they will continue to do so on prom night.”

Smithtown High School West participates in the county District Attorney’s Office new Choices and Consequences program that shows the dangers of reckless and drunk driving. Members of the DA’s office were in the high school June 18.

In a letter to students, Smithtown West High School Principal John Coady said anyone caught drinking during prom will be suspended and kicked out. Prom tickets will not be refunded, and the student may be barred from the graduation ceremony.

Fifty alcohol and 25 drug testing kits were sent out to numerous schools to kick off the program. The kits are also available free at each Suffolk County legislator’s office and will remain offered through

Mount Sinai fourth-graders raise quails Students learn about life cycles while helping to curb Long Island’s growing tick population

Tips and tricks when handling ticks

BY DESIRÉE KEEGAN DESIREE@TBRNEWSMEDIA.COM

for the dual purpose of rejuvenating the local quail population while curbing the rising tick problem, which gets worse every year with a lack of natural predators.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported the number of illnesses related to ticks, mosquitos and fleas have tripled from 2004 to 2016, with 69,313 diseases reported from ticks in New York state in that time. In 2013, the CDC estimated that nationally there were 300,000 cases of Lyme disease annually, which is carried by deer tick.

Brosdal’s daughter Erika suffered through the pains of Lyme disease when she was 13 years old. As a father, watching his daughter lay in pain on the couch was heartbreaking.

“She couldn’t breathe,” Brosdal said. “It affected her so terribly – she was an A-grade student until that happened, and then she had to read everything twice. I give her a lot of credit — she’s 44 now and has two master’s degrees and she’s a high school psychologist.”

Brosdal said the quails have an important job to do and “can do a lot of good.”

Powers said multiple schools participate in his program and will release the quails in parks all over Long Island. If any school or group is interested in raising quails, Powers can be contacted through www.yc2n.com.

According to Stony Brook Southampton Hospital, over 900 calls were received from people seeking advice from its tick helpline in 2017.

If a tick is found on your body, there are ways to safely remove it: • Tweezers are the best tool and should be placed as close to the skin as possible — grabbing the tick’s head.

• Pull upward with a slow and steady motion and try to avoid breaking the tick in half. If the head snaps off, know disease transmission is not possible without the entire body.

• Disinfect the bit area with rubbing alcohol or soap and water and contact a physician. Consider placing the tick in a baggie or pill vial.

• Pay attention to your health in the weeks following.

There are also ways to reduce your exposure, like checking for ticks daily, especially under the arms, in and around the ears, inside the belly button, behind the knees or between legs and on the hairline and scalp.

Remove and dry clothing on high heat as soon as possible to kill ticks. They can’t be drowned by washing. You can create a tick-safe yard by mowing frequently and keeping leaves raked. Also be sure to treat dogs and cats.

One tick can carry multiple pathogens.

Deer ticks or blacklegged ones have no white markings, are brown or black in color and are very, very small. Both nymph and adult stages can transmit diseases like Lyme and babesiosis.

For more information on handling and treating ticks or for a free removal kit visit www.eastendtickresource.org or call the helpline at 631-726-TICK (8425).

Celebrating 80 years

Suffolk County Legislator Robert Trotta (R-Fort Salonga) welcomed kindergartner Gianna Kelly and her family, as well as Park View Elementary Principal Kevin Storch to the June meeting of the county Legislature to congratulate her on taking first place in the kindergarten division in the annual Brookhaven National Laboratory’s Elementary School Science Fair.

This is the first time that the school has won first place in this contest, according to Trotta.

Gianna’s project involved placing light and dark-colored crayons in water to learn which would float or sink. In testing them, she discovered that it was not the color of the crayon but how it was placed in the water. If the crayon was positioned horizontally on the water, it floated; but if it was placed with the pointed or flat end in the water, it sank.

Local athletes help Long Island win Empire Challenge

BY BILL LANDON After a New York City 30-yard Hail Mary touchdown pass, the team went for a twopoint conversion to outright win its third straight Empire Challenge football game under Hofstra University’s Friday night lights, but Long Island’s James Lyons, of Sayville, batted away the conversion pass in a 28-27 thriller.

Up to that point Westhampton running back Dylan Laube has been the center of all things Long Island offense June 15, powering his way to three touchdowns — accumulating 151 all-purpose yards. He was voted most outstanding player of the game.

He opened Long Island’s scoring by running off left tackle on the opening play of the second quarter and punching into the end zone to help tie the game 7-all.

Miller Place’s Tyler Ammirato, Long Island’s defensive captain, called signals on the field in an attempt to contain an explosive NYC offensive attack. His plan ended up in a Long Island defensive stop to take over on downs, and Laube was back to work on offense. Farmingdale’s Briant DeFelice made the extra-point kick following Laube’s second touchdown to put Long Island out front 14-7 with three minutes left in the third.

“It’s an awesome experience — you read the paper every week and you see all these guys’ names and to finally meet them and get to play with them,” Ammirato said. “I thought, ‘Our defensive stand right

Long Island 28 NYC 27

here will be the turning point of this game — we’ve got to get a stop right here,’ but our offense is [also very] talented, they’ll punch it in.”

After NYC retied the game, Harborfields wide receiver Gavin Buda ran a sideline route and grabbed a 39-yard pass from Northport quarterback Ryan Walsh to put Long Island in excellent field position.

Buda, the only athlete in history to be chosen for both the Empire Challenge and last week’s Blue Chip Prospects Grand Slam Challenge baseball game said it was a fitting way to conclude his high school career.

“It’s sad, but this is one of the greatest games I’ve ever played in my life,” Buda said. “To meet all of these great superstars that I’ve played against and I’ve seen on the field, and to be friends with them now and to be their teammates, is just [an] amazing experience that I’m going to remember for the rest of my life.”

Laube finished what Buda started for a 21-14 advantage to end the scoring for the third. A rare NYC miscue helped Westhampton’s Nolan Quinlan pick off a pass and nearly return it for a touchdown before being forced out of bounds with 32 seconds left in the fourth. NYC’s defense made a stop that forced Long Island to try for a 36-yard field goal attempt, which was blocked.

With just over eight minutes left NYC made it a new game 21-all, but Long Island let time tick off the clock on a long drive to three consecutive first downs before Oceanside wide receiver Derek Cruz’s old-school flea-flicker jump ball. Cruz faked continuing his run and tossed the ball back

to quarterback Tommy Heuer, who waited for Massapequa wide receiver Owen Glascoe to break free.

Heuer hit Glascoe in the end zone for a 34-yard touchdown pass and DeFelice added his fourth extra-point kick for a 28-21 lead with 41 seconds left, which ended up being the game-winning point.

Ward Melville linebacker Zach Hobbes, who was instrumental in the Patriots’ rout of West Genesee in the state lacrosse final the weekend prior, was euphoric taking part in his final football game.

“I can’t think of a better way to end my senior year,” Hobbes said. “Winning a state championship and then to play in front of 9,000 people for the last game of my varsity football career, and to get a win like that, it’s an unbelievable experience.”

With time running out NYC went hurryup offense and hit three consecutive pass plays down the sideline, getting out of bounds each time to stop the clock and save

what precious seconds remained. With five seconds left, NYC quarterback Mike Nicosia threw the Hail Mary to the left corner of the end zone, where he found Titus Leo. “That was a crazy experience — that’s just how I expected the game to go,” Buda said. “I knew both teams would put up a fight and right when we scored that last touchdown I knew you could not count them out. We had to make a defensive stop, but they drove down — they’re a great team. Our defense came up with a humongous stop and that sealed the deal.”

Shoreham-Wading River’s Tyler McAuley was unable to compete in the 23rd annual Empire Challenge football game. Ward Melville outside linebacker Thomas Kutchma and running back Nicholas Messina; Miller Place defensive end Matthew McNulty; and Northport quarterback Ryan Walsh were other area athletes that took part in the senior all-star game.

OPINION Editorial

Letters to the editor

To St. James FD: Fairfields needs a poll SARA-MEGAN WALSH

Have morals, and get your facts straight

In light of current national events, a gnawing question surfaces — what happened to American values?

Even the staunchest defenders of President Donald Trump (R) have to concede what’s currently going on at the borders of the United States is deeply troubling — the separation of parents from their children.

The thought of just one child being separated from his or her family, crying for even a second, should be enough to deter any American with a conscience from supporting the president’s current policy. And yes, it is he and his administration’s to own, no matter what they want us to believe.

The president has falsely claimed the immoral and inhumane policy of separating children from their parents who cross the border illegally was “a Democrat’s law.” It is not a law. Now it turns out, he is signing an executive order ending this loathsome policy.

According to PolitiFact — a fact-checking site owned by the nonprofit Poynter Institute for Media Studies — the zero-tolerance policy that the Trump administration introduced in April, and one our president now admitted he has the power to change, has led to the massive uptick in children of all ages stuck in federal facilities without their parents.

Attorney General Jeff Sessions and Chief of Staff John Kelly have publicly intimated the aim of the new policy is to deter people from seeking asylum in the U.S. Even so, that hasn’t happened. Illegal immigrants are so desperate to flee their countries, they are walking into this crisis as the lesser of two terrible evils.

On June 15, federal officials announced that 1,995 children have been separated from 1,940 adults at the border between April 19 and May 31. Parents were referred for prosecution.

Facts matter regarding the details of the new policy, especially as the White House and cabinet members like Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen cry “fake news.” It would be accurate to say the Trump administration has not explicitly crafted a policy calling for the separation of families entering the U.S. illegally. However, zero tolerance has created the problem, because illegally crossing the border was previously handled as a civil offense. This allowed families to be detained together, but now, as the felonies are turning into criminal charges, parents are being taken into police custody while children are frequently sent to a Walmart-turned-detention center in Texas, which grows more crowded by the day, and other places around the country.

This is all indisputable fact. We as Americans have a responsibility to acknowledge this, politicians and officials.

We encourage anyone as troubled by this as we are to reach out to your houses of worship to see if they’re taking steps to aide those being affected. Who are looking after the safety and welfare of these children? Donate your time or money to one of the more than 10 rapid response networks aiding Long Island immigrants, or organizations like RAICES, a Texas-based nonprofit that provides legal defense for individuals in immigration court.

This is not our America, and this is not your America. This is not anyone’s America. We cannot remain silent. When government fails, it is up to us to stand up for one of America’s intrinsic values — freedom and the entitlement to basic human rights.

Below is a copy of a letter sent to St. James Fire District dated June 11: As a resident and board member of the civic association at Fairfield at St. James, I was very disappointed when I found out that our community was not the polling place for the firehouse referendum to be held on June 19.

At the last vote, on the bond issue, the vote was held at our location so our older residents who can’t drive or are unable to go to a different location could vote.

Our clubhouse, which is an official Board of Elections polling place, was good enough for the bond issue that was defeated by the people of St. James. I sincerely hope that your decision was not to make Fairfield a polling place is based on the way our residents voted. If your decision was made on that basis, so you could limit the vote, either for or against this issue, this could be considered gerrymandering and not getting a true representation of the people.

If News 12, local papers and radio station got wind of this selective voting practice, I believe it would not fare well for the St. James Fire

District. I sincerely hope this is not the case.

I sincerely hope the commissioner reconsiders and makes Fairfield a polling place; other residents feel the same way about this being a polling site. We, the residents of Fairfield, live in St. James and have always shown an interest in all the issues of the town.

Nick Argentieri St. James

Editor’s note: In the December 2017 elections for St. James fire commissioners, 30 votes were cast at the Fairfield location, according to district spokeswoman Jessica Novins.

“Given the low turnout, the board did not think it was fiscally responsible to keep that as a polling location, as it costs money to staff both voting locations,” Novins said.

A list of Obama’s accomplishments In response to those people who disliked, and still dislike, President Obama and foolishly, endlessly and publicly accuse him of accomplishing next to nothing of value or importance during his two terms in office, let me list just some of the major, excellent accomplishments of his time in office.

Here we go: • Obama rescued us from the Great Recession, cutting unemployment from 10 percent to less than 5 percent.

• He initiated the Affordable Care Act, providing health insurance to more than 20 million previously uninsured citizens.

• He ended the absurd Iraq war.

• He terminated the existence of the vile, dangerous madman, Osama bin Laden.

• He got the $787 billion American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 passed during the period of

recession.

• He hugely helped our automobile industry in many ways.

• He helped place our nation en route to energy independence by 2020.

• He signed the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, thus permitting millions to live in the U.S. legally, escape deportation and obtain work permits.

• He lowered the veterans’ homeless rate by 50 percent.

• He got rid of the Bush era’s ugly torture acts.

• He limited lobbyists’ access to the White House.

• He established the White House Office of Urban Affairs.

• He began improving relations with Cuba.

• He ended media blackouts of war casualties.

• He raised funds for the Department of Veterans Affairs.

• He helped pass the Credit

Card Accountability, Responsibility and Disclosure Act of 2009.

• He raised standards for the fuel efficiency of cars.

• He greatly improved public school nutrition.

• He helped regulate the financial status of the nation.

• He helped fight pay discrimination aimed at women.

• He nominated the first Hispanic to the Supreme Court.

• He expanded embryonic stem cell research.

• He repealed the “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy of the military.

• He phased out numerous, outdated war weapons.

• He increased funds for science and research labs.

• He helped, via legislation, physically paralyzed U.S. citizens.

• He won the Nobel Peace Prize.

I could continue for many pages.

OPINION

Sifting through the memories

M

y family has become archeologists in our own home. After 12 years of collecting artwork from the kids’ classes in school, saving report cards and filing away binders from earlier grades, we are sifting through all that material, jettisoning or recycling what we don’t need.

Some of the finds are so remarkable that they stop us in our sorting tracks. My high school daughter isn’t much of a morning person.

She often prefers short sounds or gestures in the car on the way to school, rather

By Daniel Dunaief than actual conversations that might require her to form words.

As we were going through a pile

D. None of the above

of material, we found a note from her nursery school teacher. She described a charming little girl who often takes a while to get going each morning. That description is so apt today that we realized how much of people’s patterns and personalities form early in life.

Then, sorting further, we found papers from her spectacular first-grade teacher. A young woman with a soft voice and a determined style, her teacher brought out the best in our daughter, even early in the morning.

Our daughter kept a diary in that class, in which she shared stories about the family’s weekend activities.

Clearly, her brother was jealous of that writing, as we also found a diary from him in which he thanks her for creating a similar book for him to record his experiences. He shared his thoughts from the weekend, and the rest of the family readily wrote back to him.

His sister also kept handwritten notes from her first-grade teacher. The letters are all clear and distinct, and offer a positive and supportive tone.

Her teacher wrote to her, without talking down to her. What a wonderful role model. This teacher, through form and content, offered a ray of sunshine to our daughter even then, which was probably why we kept the papers.

These notes today take on a different meaning for us, as the teacher succumbed to cancer at a young age just a few years after our daughter had the privilege of being in her class. Our daughter was recently in a high school English class in which her first-grade teacher’s husband served as a part-time instructor. She shared some of these notes with him. He was delighted to take them home to his daughter, who was a toddler when her mother died. His daughter has particularly appreciated seeing her mother’s handwriting and feeling an indirect connection to the encouraging words she offered.

We also found numerous pictures of our son on baseball fields of his own, surrounded by younger versions of teammates who have stuck with him through the years, as well as of friends who have gone their separate ways — or have pursued other sports.

Amid all the trophies from sports teams, we discovered certificates indicating that one or both of our children had been successful lunch helpers.

We have unearthed old VHS tapes of movies we watched numerous times as a family, including a few Disney classics and a surprisingly amusing Barbie version of “The Princess and the Pauper.”

In addition to sending us down memory lane, sorting through all the accumulated clutter has made the house seem so much larger, giving us room to add modern memories and memorabilia to our collection.
