DOUBLE TROUBLE!

County confirms first positive West Nile Virus

County Health Department issues heat advisory

With extreme heat and humidity expected, and air temperatures anticipated to remain above 90 degrees on Tuesday and Wednesday, the Westchester County Health Department is issuing a heat advisory. As humidity and temperatures rise, residents should avoid strenuous activity, drink lots of water, avoid alcohol and caffeine, and take precautions to prevent heat-related illness. To help residents cope with the climbing temperatures, Glen Island Beach in New Rochelle will be open Tuesday, September 5 until 6:30 p.m., and Wednesday, September 6 from 11 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.; last entry is 6 p.m.

Westchester County Executive George Latimer said: “Pace yourself – don’t overdo it in the heat. If you spend time outdoors, take breaks in an air-conditioned place and drink lots of water. And during a heat wave, remember to always check in on your elderly or ailing neighbors.”

Sherlita Amler, MD, Westchester County Commissioner of Health, said people who are most vulnerable to adverse effects from the heat include the very

young, seniors, people who are obese and those with high blood pressure, heart disease, diabetes or lung conditions.

Amler said: “Heat stroke and dehydration can take you by surprise. High humidity, chronic health conditions and some medications can also increase a person’s risk for heat stroke.”

Heat stroke is a serious and life-threatening condition that claims many lives nationwide each year. Symptoms include hot red, dry skin, shallow breathing, a rapid, weak pulse and confusion. Anyone suffering from heat stroke needs to receive emergency medical treatment immediately. Call 911 if you suspect heat stroke and immediately cool the overheated person while waiting for emergency help to arrive.

Amler reminded residents never to leave children, pets or people alone in a car. Temperatures can quickly rise to unsafe levels, so motorists should always look before they lock their vehicles.

“To avoid tragedy, it’s also vital to never leave infants, children, seniors or pets in a closed car no matter how brief the

time,” Amler said. “Closed vehicles can quickly heat up to a life-threatening 140º F or more.”

Another concern during a heat wave is heat exhaustion. Seniors, young children, people who are overweight or who have high blood pressure, people who work outside or in other hot environments are most at risk. Frequent breaks and drinking lots of water can help prevent heat exhaustion. Signs include headache, nausea or vomiting, dizziness and exhaustion, as well as cool, moist, pale or flushed skin. Anyone suffering from heat exhaustion should move out of the sun and apply cool, wet cloths to their skin.

“During a heat wave, seniors, young children and people with compromised immunity especially should avoid vigorous outdoor activity, seek the shade, spend time in air-conditioned locations and drink lots of water throughout the day,” Amler said. “Especially when they’re swimming and playing in the water, children often

Westchester County has learned of its first positive human case of West Nile Virus this year, which was confirmed in a New Rochelle resident.

Health Commissioner Dr. Sherlita Amler said, “This first case of West Nile Virus should remind us all to take precautions against mosquito bites by removing standing water from our property, and using repellents when we spend time outdoors, especially from dusk to dawn when mosquitoes are most active.”

West Nile Virus infection most often causes a mild or moderate flu-like illness, but can be more serious particularly for people age 60 and older, and those with other health complications.

The Westchester County Department of Health evaluat-

ed standing water around the resident’s home and nearby catch basins, and treated those with larvicide as needed. Residents should inspect their property and remove any standing water to prevent mosquitoes from breeding. Residents who notice large areas of standing water on public property should report them to the Westchester County Department of Health at 813-5000.

Throughout the season, the Westchester County Health Department traps and tests mosquitoes to track the presence of mosquito-borne viruses. For more ideas on how to reduce the mosquito population near your home, go to https://health.westchestergov.com/west-nile-virus

Village of Mamaroneck to host EnergySmart Homes Event

On Sunday, Sept 17 from 4-5:30 p.m., the village of Mamaroneck’s Committee for the Environment, in collaboration with Sustainable Westchester, welcomes local residents to the Village Courthouse at 169 Mt. Pleasant Ave to learn about energy and cost-saving home solutions. The town of Mamaroneck and the Mamaroneck Public Library are also supporting this event.

Since joining Sustainable Westchester’s EnergySmart Homes (ESH) Program, the Village of Mamaroneck has committed to making information about energy-saving home solutions available to residents. Through the ESH Program, homeowners are connected to resources and expert advice around energy-saving home retrofits. The event will provide a forum for residents to learn about incentives, rebates, licensed contractors, and other resources surrounding home heat pump installation, insulation and air-sealing.

All residents are encouraged to attend regardless of prior knowledge around heat

pump technology or insulation. Local energy advisors, verified contractors, and other experts will be in attendance to answer attendees’ questions.

Thus far, the EnergySmart Homes program has helped thousands of residents navigate energy efficiency audits and complete over 800 (and counting) clean heating & cooling upgrade projects. The program also connects income eligible residents to New York State-sponsored financial assistance options.

Tom Murphy, village of Mamaroneck Mayor, noted: “The Village of Mamaroneck is committed to supporting the reduction of energy usage, in a way that not only saves money but also makes our village greener. This event is an opportunity to come together and work towards a more sustainable and resilient community.”

David Freeman, Chair of the Committee for the Environment, had this to say: “Achieving the environmental goal of reducing our carbon footprint, and the economic goal of saving money, are liter -

ally two sides of the same coin. This event will show Village residents how to do both. Anyone who wants to save on their bills and help the environment at the same time should definitely plan to attend.”

Lauren Brois, Sustainable Westchester’s EnergySmartHomes program director, noted: “In New York State, buildings are the leading source of greenhouse gas emissions and co-pollutants, which means building decarbonization is a critical component of the clean energy transition. Sustainable Westchester encourages residents to learn how they can be a part of this transition by improving their own homes with clean energy solutions. At the session, residents can expect to learn about which rebates and incentives are available from the local utility, state and federal government.”

All residents interested in attending the September 17th event are encouraged to register here: bit.ly/GoGreenMamaroneck.

forget to drink, so parents and caregivers should prompt children to take breaks to hydrate.”

Those who plan to travel by car should prepare their vehicle before hitting the road. Always travel with a spare battery, and avoid leading radios, phone chargers and other accessories running when the engine is not. Check to make sure your air conditioning is properly functioning and coolant is at the proper level. If you plan to travel in less populated areas, bring water and an umbrella for shade if it becomes necessary to leave the car. Always keep air flowing throughout the vehicle, and try to park in the shade.

For tips to prevent heat-related illness and places to stay cool, residents can visit the Health Department website.

Residents who need a place to cool off can check the Cooling Center Finder. When it is too hot at home, senior centers, libraries, community centers and indoor malls offer a respite from the heat. Call before you go to be sure of the hours.

Elevated heat and humidity can also lead to unhealthy levels of ozone, a gas produced by the action of sunlight on organic air contaminants from auto exhaust and other sources. For air quality updates, go to airnow.gov. The New York State Department of Environmental Conservation forecasts daily ozone conditions, or call the New York State Air Quality Hotline at 1-800-535-1345

The county’s Department of Emergency Services is monitoring the weather forecast, tracking the opening of local Cooling Centers and is in contact with Con Edison and NYSEG concerning the potential for power outages.

Latimer announces annual event for seniors County reminds parents of back to school vaccines

To help children keep healthy and in the classroom throughout the school year, the Westchester County Department of Health is reminding families that it’s time to book back-to-school vaccine visits with your child’s health care provider, or at our free back-toschool clinics.

Westchester County Health Commissioner Dr. Sherlita Amler, said: “It takes more than pens and pencils to be ready for school. Children should keep up or catch up with the vaccines recommended for their age and grade. To avoid serious illnesses that can cause children to skip school, miss sports, play dates and activities, families should schedule vaccine visits now. Vaccines protect your child, and they also protect infants and children around them who are too young to be vaccinated, or who cannot be vaccinated because of other medical conditions.”

For those without insurance, or who have Child Health Plus or Medicaid, the County Health

Department can help. Besides school vaccines, the County also offers influenza vaccines for children ages six months and older.

Families with no insurance, ChildHealth Plus or Medicaid, should call the County Health Department to schedule an appointment for vaccines at no charge. Call 995-5800 to find out if you qualify and to secure a spot at the Health Department clinics, at 134 Court St. in White Plains or 20 South Broadway in Yonkers. Appointments are available on Thursdays in Yonkers, from 1:30 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. and Fridays in White Plains, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Extended hours are available in Yonkers on Thursday, Sept 7 and 14, from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. and in White Plains on Saturday, Sept. 16, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

Children must have their first dose of all required vaccinations within 14 days of the first day of school. Parents and guardians must show that they have made appointments for all required

follow-up doses within 30 days of the start of school. Ask your healthcare provider which vac -

cines your children need. All 7th and 12th graders must get the meningococcal vaccine, and all

students must be vaccinated against whooping cough, measles and mumps.

Westchester recognizes International Overdose Awareness Day

On Aug. 31, Westchester County Executive George Latimer officially recognized International Overdose Awareness Day, a day-long event that symbolizes the largest annual campaign to end overdose. The event was created to honor the lives of individuals lost to overdose, and to recognize the people, providers and programs in Westchester County, and New York State, that work to reduce overdoses and the stigma that is attached to them.

This year’s theme was “recognizing those people who go unseen.” The event was created to help spread awareness about overdoses and share prevention strategies, as well as encourage support and recovery for those impacted by substance abuse and overdose.

Westchester County Executive George Latimer said: “Overdose deaths can be prevented, and in Westchester County, we are doing everything we can to stop death by overdose. It isn’t always easy to speak up if you think a family member or friend is struggling with addiction, but if you let that intimidation get the best of you, the result could be incredibly tragic. On International Overdose Awareness Day, let us come together with our community partners and

organizations to stop overdose deaths in Westchester.”

Westchester County Commissioner of the Department of Community Mental Health Michael Orth said: “Today marks a day in which we make an extra effort to recognize those who have gone through, or lost someone to opioid abuse. Every day we hear about overdose, about fentanyl, about opioid abuse. Every day we should pause to acknowledge those who battle this disease and those family members who live with the consequences of overdose. We come together on this day to reflect, but to also equip our communities with resources and support. DCMH working with our partners in the community continue the mission providing prevention, intervention, treatment and recovery to those in need. I thank all the organizations who join us in making people aware that there is hope.”

NCADD/Westchester Executive Director Joan Bonsignore said: “NCADD/Westchester, Inc., is proud to partner with the Department of Community Mental Health and community groups and to bring together this day of reflection here in Westchester. Our children are dying. Over a 12-month period ending in 2021, more than 108,000 people

died of overdose in this country—we must address this epidemic immediately. We ask everyone to partner with us to save the lives of our loved ones and to promise our children a future as bright as the one promised to us. Today we are called to action, meaning everyone must step up, show up, and make an impact in our communities. Your

help is needed now more than ever—silence is deadly.”

The event was co-sponsored by Westchester County, City of White Plains, National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence/Westchester, Friends of Recovery, Westchester Providers and other members of the recovery community.

’Game’ Over? More matchups to watch

Just because one of the biggest games of the year was played between Harrison and Rye in Week Zero doesn’t mean that area football fans don’t have plenty to look forward to in the coming weeks. In fact, the Week One docket promises tons of intriguing matchups that should be more than enough to stoke the interest of a number of different fanbases.

While several teams took advantage of scheduling Week Zero opponents, there are a few teams who will be getting their first taste of regular season play this weekend. Among those is last year’s Class AA Section 1 runner up, Mamaroneck, which will be taking on old foe North Rockland on Friday night.

This season should be an interesting one for the Tigers, who graduated several

key players from last year’s exceptional squad return plenty of talent and are consistently among the best coached squad’s in Section 1. But their first test against the Red Raiders will not be an easy one; North Rockland earned a big Week Zero win over Monroe-Woodbury after falling behind 15-0, riding All-County running back Gamie Sauveur for 21 unanswered points to come away with the victory. Watching the normally stout Tiger defense contend with an elite back should be a fun watch for those making the trip up to North Rockland.

On Friday afternoon, two crosstown rivals will square off as Bronxville and Tuckahoe—both coming off decisive Week Zero wins—will square off at 4:30 p.m.

The Broncos destroyed an out-of-section Chester team last week and boast some big bodies up front that could help them dominate the line of scrimmage. Tuckahoe, on the other hand, showed their explosive

tendencies in a big win over Port Chester, with quarterback Jax Colacicco throwing for four scores to three different receivers. This game could be a contrast in styles and a raucous event for the citizens of the neighboring hamlets.

Finally, Eastchester will seek to get some revenge on a Pelham team that stood in the way of an Eagles’ playoff berth last year when a late punt return effectively put an end to Eastchester’s season. No doubt the Eagles will be geared up for Satur-

day’s matchup, as they look to bounce back from a tough overtime loss to non-section Averill Park in Week Zero.

With the football season getting into full swing in September, these Week One matchups prove that there are plenty of high-oc-

tane games left to go. And as teams rise and fall in the standings, there’s no doubt that we’ll be riding this wave of gridiron classics all the way until November.

Huskies down Rye for second-straight year

Football Non League

Harrison Rye

@ Game Notes

At Harrison HS

• Chris McLaughlin scored two TDs for Harrison

21 14

9/2/23

• AJ Miller threw for 194 and a TD

• Harrison has won twostraight

On a Harrison team returning a host of highly-touted playmakers, Michael Olsey may not be yet a household name. But on Saturday afternoon, Olsey shined brightest in the biggest moment of the game, hauling in a fourth-quarter touchdown heave from quarterback Marco Citro to put the Huskies on top for good with a 21-14 win over the Garnets.

Citro found Olsey on a vert switch route for the goahead score with just 1:51 remaining, helping the Huskies come away with their second straight win over Rye in “The Game”—96th iteration of the most storied rivalry in Section 1 sports.

Prior to their two straight wins, Harrison’s last victory

over their rivals came in 2012.

“The ball was up in the sun and I just squinted and saw the black silhouette and did my best to come down with it,” said Olsey. “It’s amazing to get this win, we’re back and we have an amazing team.”

Feeding on some Rye miscues—and an 85-yard interception return from Chris McLaughlin—Harrison jumped out to a 14-0 firsthalf lead, but Rye was able to right the ship offensively in the second half, finding the end zone on a touchdown pass from AJ Miller and a quarterback sneak from Miller a few series later.

Harrison battled through cramps and injuries, including an rolled ankle sustained by Citro that kept the Huskies’ star quarterback out for the better part of the second and third quarters. But in the fourth, Citro returned to lead the Huskies to the win, something he said was never in question.

“It was hurting for sure, but the trainers, the doctors on our sideline, they did a great job,” said Citro. “I was going to do everything I could to make sure I got back out there today.”

“He’s a tough kid, he fought through it all,” said

Olsey. “He fought to help us get through it.”

Harrison head coach Jay Ciraco was pleased with the way his team stepped up in the face of injuries on Saturday, noting that, with just 26 players on the roster, the Huskies need each player to be able to fill in

when his number is called.

“We’ve talked about it all fall, it’s really a next-man up mentality and you saw that today,” he said. “I’m proud of the way these guys battled, especially against a great opponent in Rye.”

With the rivalry game behind them, both the Huskies

and Garnets will turn their sights to the rest of their seasons. Rye (Class B) and Harrison (Class A) both figured to be contenders for Section 1 championships this year, and the Week Zero tilt should do much to prepare the squads for the rest of their fall campaigns.

“It’s a great win, but obviously there is stuff we have to work on, stuff we have to get better with,” said Ciraco. “We’re going to have a lot to fix, but it’s nice to come out of this 1-0.”
