Day after day, year after year Bayville residents have driven by 26 Ludlam Avenue wonder-ing if the building would ever be utilized and meet its potential. Enter the D’Amelio family whose reputation in the fur and leather industry garners over 40 years of experience and success. They re-cently purchased the building and opened The Boutique - a show-place that not only designs, re-pairs and remodels furs, but also offers a full fur storage service.

The business is run by Sandro D’Amelio of Roslyn along with his wife Bari and his parents Rocco and Anna D’Amelio of Up-per Brookville. Originally based in Manhattan, the business moved to Long Island City to expand its warehouse. Over the years as the business changed the D’Amelios started bringing in storage for their customers.

“The business grew so much that we had to move out of the city because we needed a bigger space,” said Sandro. “I wanted to open my own boutique to bring my products to Long Island. No-body has what we have. We not only sell new, we remodel, rebuild and redesign furs. You never work with a salesperson here. You are always working hands-on with family.”

When asked why they chose Bayville as a location, Sandro said, “I’ve always hung out in Bayville and ate at Wall’s Wharf. I don’t go to Jones Beach - I come here. We live 15 minutes away, my parents live 5 minutes away. Everybody here is nice. It’s a friendly commu-nity. I feel like a local.”

Towards the end of the spring, people tend to put their furs into storage for safekeeping and to maintain the quality of their coats. “It’s important, if you have a nice fur coat, to keep it in a vault at a certain temperature. If it gets too

hot, the coats get damaged be-cause they get too dry,” said San-dro. “After drying and getting hu-mid, the coat will tear. If you love your coats, you are going to bring them to storage.”

In addition to storage, The Bou-tique sells a variety of furs from Russian sables to lama minks to beaver and they can tailor a coat for any customer. “If you don’t fi nd what you want, we will cus-tom make it for you,” said Sandro. “There are no boundaries anymore. It’s all about your preference.”

In September, people tend to take their furs out of storage and are seeking accessories to match from capes to wraps to shawls to hats to gloves, which The Bou-tique offers. Plus all their coats are made with a high-end lining imported from Europe.

The D’Amelios also own Dero by Rocco leather manufacture, which sells to 900 to 1,000 spe-cialty stores. The Bayville location is the family’s retail fl agship. If all

goes well they plan to branch out further east towards the Hamp-tons.

“Getting this building, working with my parents and my wife is a dream come true,” said Sandro. “This has become like a second

home to us.”The Boutique is open 10 AM-4

PM on most days and by appoint-ment for evening hours. A GrandOpening celebration is plannedfor after Labor Day. For more in-formation, call (516) 922-0600.

The Mill River Rod & Gun Club of Bayville held one of its quarterly environmental clean-ups around Mill Pond in Oyster Bay on Sunday, August 21st. The organiza-tion has been performing this clean up in the winter, spring, summer and fall since the ‘50s. Club mem-bers found all kinds of de-bris from beer cans to booze bottles to briefcases.

“When you have dark roads like this, people tend to throw whatever they can out the window. We are try-ing to keep everything as natural as possible,” said Tom Hornosky, the Club’s Conservation Offi cer. “We

found a briefcase that was stolen out of a car in Oyster Bay. It didn’t have anything valuable so the crooks threw it out the window near Mill Pond. We have found some pretty racy things in the past but mainly it’s a lot of beer cans, booze bottles, cof-fee cups, whatever people don’t want to bring home to throw out.”

Hornosky and his team said this season’s clean up wasn’t as bad due to the help of Friends of the Bay who often monitor the area. “If you start poking through the grass that is uncut you’ll fi nd more and more,” he said. “When the fall comes, we will fi nd stuff that is hid-den right now.”

Sagamore Hill National Historic Site in partnership with the Town of Oyster Bay has collaborated in a fed-eral/local government part-nership to design, fabricate and install 50 new signs at Sagamore Hill NHS. The new signs support the park’s 2008 General Management Plan for improving circu-lation on visitor pathways around the site as well as provide regulatory informa-tion to the visiting public.

The signs provide a uni-fi ed system, which follows the National Park Service’s (NPS) graphical identity for design and font style. The new signs provide clear di-rection for the 55,000 an-nual visitors who access site attractions such as the Roosevelt Home; Theodore Roosevelt Museum at Old Orchard; Nature Trail; Pet Cemetery; and the historic tennis court site. A series of new signs located along the nature trail and beach area provide regulatory as

well as interpretive infor-mation about the plants and animals that live in this part of the park. Other signs re-mind visitors that dogs must always be kept on a 6’ leash and that swimming is not allowed at the park’s beach, which today is a wildlife ref-uge.

According to Superinten-dent Tom Ross, “We are so grateful to the Town of Oys-ter Bay and Supervisor Ven-ditto for supporting the de-sign and fabrication of these signs for Sagamore Hill NHS. This project is a key element in our site’s new master plan and the town was able to make a signifi -

cant contribution through its sign department resourc-es to accomplish the work. This project is a prime ex-ample of how federal and local government should work to capitalize on each other’s resources in moving good projects forward.”

The Town of Oyster Bay continues a long tradition of partnering with the Na-tional Park Service in pro-viding site signage. The last site sign campaign in part-nership with the town was approximately 20 years ago and those signs have either come to the end of their useful life or have been re-placed.

“As the family home of Theodore Roosevelt, and one of only two National Park units on Long Island and the only one in the Town of Oyster Bay, it was a no-brainer to support the efforts of the National Park Service on this project” said Town Supervisor John Ven-ditto “We have had a long

and strong partnership withSagamore Hill and this proj-ect presented a unique op-portunity to utilize town re-sources to assist this key site and attraction which servesour town residents and visi-tors from afar so well.”

Sagamore Hill NHS staff have installed the new sig-nage and matched thesevisitor pathway signs with asign contract which includ-ed a new sign for the Visi-tor Center as well as a new main exit sign which thanks visitors for coming to thesite and provides the Theo-dore Roosevelt inspirationalquote: “Keep your eyes on the stars, but remember to keep your feet on the ground” with an engraved Theodore Roosevelt signa-ture. We invite the public to visit the site and see the sign improvements. The site grounds are open dailysunrise to sunset.

tunate because it’s a won-derful place.”

Health issues are also a major concern for Neigh-bors for Peace of Mind. “We all know that the Telecom-munications Act says that we can’t argue health issues but there’s so much research out there that shows when a cell antenna is placed in a residential area there have been cases of leukemia, low sperm count and other fac-tors,” said McCue.

Neighbors for Peace of Mind is in the process of set-ting up a meeting with new Pastor Reverend Kalombo Ngoy Nelson. “We are will-ing to communicate and hear their side of the story,” said McCue. “From what we un-derstand, the church needs money. We have said that we are willing to help them raise money, just don’t put the antenna in the church.”

NFPOM is currently cir-culating a petition, distrib-uting pamphlets in the com-munity, setting up Facebook page and making calls. “A lot of people are starting to get the buzz,” said McCue, who is hoping to put togeth-er a community meeting to spread the word.

The group has gained the support of the East Nor-wich Civic Association who has voted against the cell antenna. “The proposed cell antenna does seem to be inappropriately placed in the steeple. Where is a more logical place to put it in East Norwich? If you push it across the street, the prob-lem doesn’t go away,” said ENCA President Matthew Meng. “Truth is no one is comfortable with cell anten-nas.”

ENCA hopes the court will send the case back to the Town of Oyster Bay and

tell the Town to reopen the matter because it is more of a home rule issue. “The preference for all would be that it would be heard by the Town of Oyster Bay and not by a judge in Suf-folk County,” said Meng. “I would have preferred that the church accept the fi nd-ings of the Town and left it at that. But they want to go forward therefore they have to deal with a community that is upset.”

Meng doesn’t think East Norwich is a place for a cell antenna. “I would rather have the antenna in an area where it would serve a greater purpose. People in East Norwich appear to be satisfi ed with the cell ser-vice,” he said. “Perhaps put-ting the antenna on a piece of property in Muttontown

a distance from residences might be a more practical solution.”

Rev. Nelson is focused on keeping the peace and fi nding common ground in the community. “Some folks think the church is the enemy. That is a mis-understanding. The church is here to help and support the community not destroy it,” he said. “The idea of the antenna is not to dis-turb people. It’s human fear and imagination. They don’t know what’s going to happen if the antenna is in-stalled.”

When it comes to the par-ents of the Wesley Nursery School, Rev. Nelson takes their opinions seriously. “We don’t want to tarnish or destroy our relationship with the parents. From my

own perspective, I think it’s wise to honor the voice of the parents. They are the people who have entrust-ed us with their children. That’s my philosophy,” he said.

Rev. Nelson is looking forward to meeting with Neighbors for Peace of Mind

“I don’t know the con-clusion yet. We have totalk about it and make sure we’re on the same page,” he said. “Everything is about negotiation.”

He continued, “If thecommunity and the parents don’t want the antenna, I don’t think it will happen. If the parents take away their children, the school will close and that’s not our wishat all. We have to fi nd com-mon ground to see what isgood for everybody.”

cess for the last couple of years.”The main house will be com-

pletely rehabilitated. The boiler will be replaced as well as the air-handling units. The sprinkler sys-tem in the house will be upgraded along with the security system.

A new roof will be installed in addition to new gutter and drain-age systems. The basement will be waterproofed and the house’s foundation will be repaired.

New siding will be put on the house, some windows will be re-habilitated and some new storm windows will be installed. The famous porch where TR delivered some of his legendary speeches will also be rehabilitated.

“We are trying to get water away from the building. Water is a powerful thing and it’s not a friend to old buildings,” said Ross, who explained that dehumidifi -ers could no longer handle mold blooms in the basement.

Interior rooms will get their fi rst rehabilitation since 1993, in-cluding fi re detection equipment.

In the rear of the house, a staff kitchen and entrance had been added to the house along with a wooden porch that is now in bad shape. The porch — which is not

in keeping with the historic struc-ture — will be demolished and an old arched interior porch will be restored to its Roosevelt-era glory.

A skylit light well will also be restored, letting natural light and fresh air into the house. “It’s all about historic preservation and bringing the house back to its orig-inal plans,” said Ross. “Everything will be done under the approval of the New York State Historic Pres-ervation Offi ce in order to make sure it is done appropriately to the highest standards.”

November deadline

Architects John G. Waite As-sociates are currently working to make a mid-November deadline to submit fi nal plans to the National Parks System Project Management Center in Denver for review and approval before the job gets put out for bid to contractors. Con-struction is scheduled to begin March/April 2012.

“We have already begun to pack behind the scenes with our storage. This project is going to require us to remove every item from the house, which entails 8,500 objects and 6,000 books,” said Ross.

Every object has been cata-logued, photographed and vid-eoed in place. This winter, pro-fessional art movers will handle storage of the historic objects.

“Cataloging is key. This way when it comes time to putting the collection back together, we will know where everything goes,” stated Ross. “It’s a monumental undertaking.”

Ross’ overall philosophy is to try to minimize the length of time that the house is closed. “We are going to play it by ear and see how things go,” he said. “We may start by closing the third fl oor in the fall and begin packing while keeping just the fi rst and second fl oor open for public viewing.”

While some items will be packed away in storage others will be given temporary displays. “We are going to try to keep as much of the collection on site as we can,” Ross said. “We will install stor-age collection cabinets with glass fronts in the Old Orchard Museum space. This way we can openly store items while they are on dis-play for the public to enjoy.”

Construction, clean-up and un-packing will keep the house closed until some time in the fall of 2014, depending on weather and other

factors. “Everything is going to be the

same but new,” said Ross. “Paint colors aren’t going to change. We are missing some shutters that will be replaced.”

Beyond the house, there are other related projects that will be included while the house is closed and in construction mode.

Work on grounds

Outdoor security lighting will be enhanced, fi re hydrants and the electrical supply will be up-graded and a discreet ramp for accessibility will be added to the porch without altering historic look of the house.

A new walkway to the house will be installed and the ice house — a cone shaped building behind the main home — will be returned to its historic appearance.

While the main house is closed down, alternative programs will be offered, such as ranger-guided tours of the grounds, powerpoint programs, grounds walks, nature programs and other activities.

“We are looking to branch out from our normal activities. We are also hoping to travel to lo-cal schools offering programs on

TR,” said Ross, who noted that thefarm shed will be used to develop an exhibit of historic photos of the Roosevelt Farm.

Sagamore Hill will still host several traditional annual events.

“We will continue to have our regular events but it will depend on the condition of the grounds. We want to do some level of cele-brating with the public but we are going to have to see what we can handle. There will be some im-pact. We may have to scale things down a bit,” said Ross. “However, the site still going to be open. We are not shutting the gates and closing the place down. We want to do what we can to serve our public.”

In July 2012 Sagamore Hill will celebrate its 50th anniversary as aNational Parks Service unit.

Ross views this restoration as “legacy project” that will set thehouse up for the next 50 years. “We are looking forward to the day when we can stand on the porch and cut the ribbon on this project,” he said. “If you want to see the Roosevelt home and viewall three fl oors, I would encourage people to come to Sagamore Hillnow. It’s an exciting time.”

one part.” The Triathlon is con-

ducted under the auspices of the Town of Oyster Bay and its Department of Parks and Recreation, with TOBAY Recreation Supervisor Diane Ramos serving as the Town’s Liaison to the event. Event management is supplied by the Greater Long Island Running Club, with GLIRC’s Jose Lopez and Ray Farrell serving as the Event Co-Di-rectors, and Linda Ottaviano and Mindy Davidson serving as Event Coordinators.

Proceeds of the event will be distributed to the Long Island Chapter of the Leu-kemia & Lymphoma Society and to the Life Enrichment Center at Oyster Bay.

“The Runner’s Edge-Town of Oyster Bay Triath-lon is one of Long Island’s most important recreational sporting events and one of the most important tri-athlons in the Northeast,” observed Triathlon Co-Di-rector Ray Farrell, “and we look forward to this year’s event being our best ever. We welcome our friends and neighbors.”

The public is invited to come out and cheer on the triathletes as they swim, bike and race to the fi nish line. GLIRC is also seek-ing volunteers doing such things as helping with wa-ter, food or even giving out medals to the fi nishers in TR Park. All volunteers will get a free commemorative shirt. For more information, call Coordinator of Volunteers Mindy Davidson at (516) 349-7646.

OPINIONEDITORIAL

Appreciating the water around us

The water around us is such an inte-gral part of the Long Island experi-ence — but we see so much of it that

we sometimes lose sight of its importance to our way of life. As the summer comes to a close, this week we are highlighting four major points on how the water impacts our lives.

WATER IS GOOD FOR THE ECONOMY

Our local restaurants thrive on — and depend on — the Atlantic Ocean’s bounty. The many well-known seafood eateries on the North Shore wouldn’t exist if it weren’t for the myriad varieties of fi sh that come from the ocean. Not only do these restaurants keep all of us local residents spending money, but they help attract tourists to Long Island.

Our beaches are among the most beauti-ful in the nation, and attract tens of thou-sands of visitors each year. Preserving their beauty will promote future tourism and at-tract more potential residents to the Island, ultimately boosting our economy. It’s im-portant to be careful when we use fertilizer near the water, since runoff that reaches the ocean can cause algae and other life forms to grow out of control, creating eyesores on the beach and killing the habitat that our aquatic wildlife needs to fl ourish.

From Stehli Beach to TR Beach, the North Shore is home to several fl eets of “party boats” and charter fi shing craft. Recreation-al fi shermen and women — and their entire families — enjoy climbing aboard these ves-sels for a few hours of fun, and sometimes bring back dinner.

WATER IS NECESSARY FOR OUR SURVIVAL

Not only does keeping Long Island’s wa-ter clean mean attracting more visitors, it

ensures a healthy ecosystem, which our survival depends on. Dumping trash and chemicals into the ocean pollutes the wa-ters and can destroy marine life. Decom-posing plastic further fouls the water with

cancer-causing compounds, and that carrying reusable bags and bottles helps re-duce the number of them that end up in the ocean.

WATER IS ESSENTIAL TO OUR GOOD HEALTH

Taking a beach break can be good for your mental health, and it also promotes physical activity. A trip to the beach for some families means hours of swimming, walking, running, surf-ing and otherwise playing around. The ocean and the bays are unsurpassed natu-ral playgrounds.

Not only is kayaking an excellent form of exercise, but the tours at the park help visi-tors understand the importance of our local wetlands — their role as breeding grounds for local organisms, which makes them a vi-tal link in the food chain.

WATER HAS BEEN GOOD TO US, SO WE SHOULD RETURN THE FAVOR

Because we’re surrounded by water, it’s easy to take it for granted. Many of us have simply stopped noticing it. But being so close to open water is something many Americans dream of. We need to make sure we appreciate it, going for an occasional boat ride (and bringing along the water skis or the fi shing pole), taking a swim now and then, or even walking along the shore, lost in thought, listening to the waves.

It’s important that we cherish all the gifts we derive from the waters around us. In re-turn we must respect our precious resourc-es and preserve them for future generations of Long Islanders.

We apologize in advanceTo the Editor:

On Sunday, August 28th, our Club will cooperate with the Town of Oyster Bay Parks Department to stage the 24th annual Town of Oyster Bay Triathlon in the hamlet of Oyster Bay and surrounding areas. The fi rst wave of athletes will en-ter the harbor at Theodore Roosevelt Memorial Park for the swim at 7:30 AM, the last athlete will be clear of the bike course by about 9:45 AM and the last runner should cross the fi nish line before 10:45 AM.

We realize the event will cause some inconvenience to local residents, but we do hope that you will un-derstand, and we very much want to work with you to insure that the in-convenience is kept to a minimum. We apologize in advance, we beg your indul-gence for this “once a year” event, and we would appre-ciate it if you could avoid driving on the course route if at all possible.

Please keep in mind that the infl ux of triathletes into Oyster Bay brings lots of business to local stores, on August 28th, on August 27th when the Junior Tri-athlon for youngsters ages 8-13 is held in TR Park, and for most of the summer as Triathlon participants visit Oyster Bay to train. Please

also keep in mind that the proceeds of this event will once again go to such im-portant charities as the Life Enrichment Center at Oys-ter Bay on East Main Street and the Long Island Chapter of the Leukemia and Lym-phoma Society.

Everyone is invited to join in the fun. Nearly a third of the participants, who range in age from 8 to 80, will be from Oyster Bay, East Norwich, Bayville, Mill Neck and other local com-munities, so come on out and cheer your friends and neighbors on!

You are also invited to go a step further and help us out at TR Park as volunteers doing such things as help-ing with water, food or even giving out medals to the fi n-ishers. If you volunteer, you will get a free commemora-tive t-shirt just for helping out. Your total time commit-ment would be about two hours. Please call Mindy Davidson, our Coordinator of Volunteers, at (516) 349-7646 to volunteer.

Please also feel free to call us at that same num-ber with whatever questions you may have about this year’s Triathlon, and most defi nitely with any sugges-tions you may have as to how we can further mini-mize the inconvenience to the community.

I look forward to seeing as many of our local friends and neighbors as possible on August 28th. If you have

any questions in the mean-time, I would love to talk toyou!

SPORTSOUT IN RIGHT FIELDBy Jeff Davis

College football selling outCould anyone imagine a professional football

team making all the money it does and not paying a penny in salary to any player? Big-time college football and the universities that have major teams are guilty of this. University presidents, sworn to uphold the dignity of their university’s degree, are more interested in the revenue and notoriety than in education. College presidents recently have gone on record as individuals and in groups that they will regain control of coaches and teams. The reality is that college football is big money and uni-versities are a business that depends on money, so education is damned.

The Big Ten Conference has twelve teams; the Big Twelve Conference has ten teams and soon might be the Big Gone Conference. The Big East defi es geographic logic and is trying to woo Tex-as into joining its ranks. The University of Texas is thinking about becoming an independent like Notre Dame University as ESPN is waving big bucks at it so it can have its own network. Speak-ing of networks if you have FIOS in our area you have so many Big Ten Channels that you can get tired trying to scroll through them. I nearly forgot that the PAC-10 conference has twelve schools with the addition of Utah and Colorado. The creation of these giant conferences is for only one reason and that is to increase revenue.

The natural rivalries that fans look forward to might never happen. If Texas A&M joins the South-eastern Conference and Texas remains in the Big Twelve, the chances are that this traditional rivalry might end. The weaker conferences such as the Big Twelve and the Big East could soon be fi ghting for existence and television revenue. Hey Yankees, what will happen to your “Pinstripe Bowl” if the Big Twelve becomes the Big Irrelevant Conference? If Oklahoma and Oklahoma State leave for the Pac-10, which is 12, it could then be 14. If Syracuse, Pittsburgh or Rutgers join the Big Ten, which is 13, it could become 16. If you understand this you probably understand how the mergers of the fi nan-cial world work. What results is a select group of big money winners and the rest is just Division 1 teams looking in.

It is time that someone suggests that college football played by unpaid “children,” aged 18-22, stop this nonsense. The fact that fewer than 25% of the student-athletes from some of these universi-ties ever graduate further illustrates how “Big Uni-versity” football programs are just like businesses and want to get the largest profi t and the lowest cost. The only problem is that businesses are sup-posed to do this and universities profess to be of a higher morality. Shame on them!

Hall of FamerCorrection from last week’s column about golfer

Donny Jarvis; I mentioned he should be in the Oys-ter Bay High School Athletic Hall of Fame what I didn’t know was that he was admitted as one of the fi rst members. He still remains a great golf teacher and one of the nicest men you could ever meet.

In a stellar performance, Ulla Chase of Centre Is-land, has won the Ladies Golf Championship at the Mill River Club of Upper Brookville, for the ninth consecutive year. The lat-est victory comes after her recent hole-in-one, and her winning of the prized Mill River Cup.

Her golf career of thir-teen years has been guided by her trainer, Mark Mielke, the widely known PGA Pro at the Mill River Club. His career includes winning the New York State Open, and achieving a competing slot in the U.S. Open Golf tour-nament.

In the forty-seven year

history of the Mill River Club, Chase is the only champion to achieve such a winning record. She is a regular competitor in the Women’s Cross County As-sociation, a tri-state compet-

itive group of the top play-ers. Chase also competes in the Nassau MGA tour. Her athletic activities in her na-tive Finland included com-peting in track and skiing events.

On August 13th, the Long Island Yankees, whose home fi eld is Portledge School in Locust Valley, played the Long Island Ducks Green in the Semifi nals of the Boys of Summer (BOS) 13U Play-offs. This game would prove to be a real pitchers duel behind the strong pitching of Yankee pitcher Zach-ary Kleinwaks who threw a complete game three hitter, and a skilled Ducks’ pitcher Frank Merlino, who gave up 5 hits in 7 innings.

There were two impor-tant plays in the game, which would prove to change the game’s outcome. In the fi rst inning, the sec-ond batter for the Ducks Paul McGee walked his way on base. Then his teammate Brendan Wright hit a ball over the head of Yankees left fi elder Grant Elgarten. Elgarten ran quickly to re-trieve the ball and threw it to the cutoff Nick Luc-chese. With screams from both sides, McGee headed for home. Lucchese made a strong throw to the plate where dirt was fl ying as Yan-kee catcher Straton Podaras received the ball and ap-plied the tag to McGee, for the fi nal out of the inning.

With the score tied 1-1

going into the 5th inning, Sam Goldberg hit a triple for the Yankees. What hap-pened next caused the fans to hold their breath. The Yankees called for a squeeze play with Goldberg at third and Steven Bornstein at the plate. The pitcher from the Ducks Frank Merlino went into his windup as Goldberg headed home. The pitch was so low in the dirt, Bornstein missed the bunt, and the crowd gasped as Goldberg was charging for home plate. Everyone thought Goldberg would be tagged out at home, but the Yankees caught a break when the pitch squeezed

under the catchers legs and went to the backstop, allow-ing Goldberg to score what would be the winning run.

The Yankees then trav-eled the same day to the Bethpage Stadium in Cen-tral Islip, a.k.a Duck Stadi-um, to play the Long Island Broncos in the BOS fi nals. The Yankees started the scoring off quickly in the bottom of the fi rst inning, with Zachary Kleinwaks hit-ting an inside the park home run over the center fi elders head. The Broncos then an-swered with two runs in the second inning.

Both pitchers were throw-ing well and were supported

by great defense. The Yan-kees had especially great plays from right fi elder Bradley Stewart who had an important over the shoulder running catch, and by Julien Arcos who started up two double plays in very impor-tant situations in the game.

Going into the bottom of the 4th inning, the Yan-kees were losing 2-1. That was about to change when the Yankees broke out and scored 7 runs batting around in the order and eventually going on to win 12-3. Ste-ven Bornstein, pitched the entire game for the Yankeesand was awarded the MVP of the game.

The Long Island Yankees defeated the Long Island Broncos in the “Boys of Summer” fi nals 12-3.

Grenville Baker Boys & Girls Club of Locust Valley’s Golf Camp was a huge success this summer. Boys and girls from 3rd to 8th grade learned the necessary skills to play and enjoy the game of golf. Practice took place at both the Glen Cove Golf Course and Cantiague Park. “Everyone had an amazing time at Golf Camp and enjoyed the extra one-on-one instruction, as well as the competitions,” said Darren Pittman, GBBGC Director of Sports and Fitness. In addi-tion to the kids learning the basics of golf such as putting, pitching, and chipping, the campers also worked on improving their own individual skills. They were then able to showcase their talents during controlled scrimmage games

In 2011, many fi rehouses on Long Island are suffering from low numbers due to a lack of vol-unteers. However in Bayville, the fi rehouse was lucky enough to get an infl ux of young recruits putting them over 90 members.

Bayville Fire Chief Ted Parente gathers these young men together monthly for drill training in or-der to sharpen their skills. “These guys are new and recently attend-ed fi re school,” said Chief Parente. “This month we are going over fi re removal for a guy that goes down and needs to be helped out by oth-er fi remen.”

Parente, who also works as a New York City fi refi ghter, was preparing the new members by simulating a fi re with fake smoke in a house, owned by the fi re com-pany, behind the fi rehouse. “Next month we are going to the acad-emy in Bethpage where they do the live burns,” he said. “I wanted them to get their feet wet here this way when they go to Bethpage they feel more confi dent. We are trying to get them up to speed as quickly as possible.”

Zack Ney of Bayville, 20, had some friends in the department therefore he decided to join. “They told me to come around

on Sundays to help out with the trucks and get to know a couple of the guys,” said Ney, who recently completed not only his fi re train-ing but his EMT course as well. “I enjoy helping people.”

Joseph Pietrofere, Jr. of Bay-ville, 22, is following in his fa-ther’s footsteps as his dad was a fi reman in New York City, Bayville and Huntington Manor. “I’d come down and help my dad out when I was younger. It’s a family tradi-tion,” he said. “I hope to get out of it as much as I can.”

Kevin Placilla of Bayville, 17, has fi re service in his genes as his dad Tim Placilla is an Ex-Chief in Bayville and currently works as an Assistant Chief Fire Marshal for Firecom. “I’ve always been around the fi re department since I was lit-tle,” he said. “It’s family thing and I’ve always wanted to help out in the community.”

In training the young recruits, Parente used Placilla to simulate what to do when a fellow fi reman is down. “If you know you are in trouble or if you are lost and run-ning out of air, get on the radio and say three times, ‘May Day, May Day, May Day.’ If you hear ‘May Day’ stay off the radio un-less you have your own May Day. If you step on it, all hell breaks loose,” said Parente as he demon-strated how to used a Sked – to

pull people out of a building and a R.I.T (Rapid Intervention Team)

pack to administer oxygen.For those who are interested in

liked the body style and ev-erything about it. I started looking into it and I fi nally pulled the trigger in 2008,” said Lavell. “It’s got air ride on it. I can adjust it to any height I want or lower it to the ground. It’s got a 385 fast burn Chevy engine, which is almost equivalent to 400 horsepower. It’s just an awesome machine.”

Lavell has placed well in quite a number of shows in-cluding winning “Best Street Rod” at Orchard Beach in the Bronx. He spent July

4th weekend displaying the vehicle at Mohegan Sun. Additionally his Street Rod was selected as one of the ‘Best 100 Cars in the North-east’ for a show in Boston.

Because the automobileis so visually striking Lavell is constantly getting offers on it. “People ask me what I want for it but I don’t want to sell it. My wife and I enjoy it too much,” he said. “Peo-ple love the color scheme. When I drive it I get a lot ofhonks and thumbs up. It’s afun ride.”

Nassau County Execu-tive Edward P. Mangano has announced a series of events commemorating the September 11, 2001 Attack on America. Events will be-gin on Tuesday, September 6th when Long Island Ra-dio Station’s WBAB and BLI team up with Long Island Blood Services to host a se-ries of Blood Drives at vari-ous locations throughout Nassau and Suffolk Coun-ties. These blood drives come at a time where there is a critical need for blood donations in our area. On the following day, Wednes-day, September 7th, Nassau County will host Long Is-land’s largest 9/11 Remem-brance Ceremony at 7 PM in Eisenhower Park. Two days later, the Nassau County Firefi ghters Museum & Ed-ucation Center will open their newest exhibit – “Lives

of Service: Celebrating the Heroes of September 11th” at their Annual Badge of Courage Gala on Friday, September 9th with the Me-morial Service beginning at 6 PM.

“Ten years ago, the en-tire nation came together to support one another in un-precedented ways after the

tragic events that transpired the morning of September 11, 2001,” said County Ex-ecutive Mangano. “This year we will once again renew that sense of unity by par-ticipating in the commemo-rative events on the 10th Anniversary of this Attack on America and remember those who were lost.”

The boys were fi shing off their father, Scott Brown’s vessel “Sea J,” a 25-foot walkabout Sea-Pro, accompanied by their father and his girlfriend Stacey Linardos Bruno. The bluefi sh took ap-proximately 4 minutes to get into the boat and weighted nearly 10 pounds. They smoked the fi sh on Monday, Au-gust 22nd and ate it for dinner on Tuesday, Au-gust 23rd.

Superstars from every part of the globe will be on stage at Long Island University’s Tilles Center for the Per-forming Arts at C.W. Post Campus in Brookville throughout the 2011-12 season, with the world-renowned Dave Brubeck Quartet, the State Sym-phony Capella of Russia, Broadway sensation Brian Stokes Mitchell, the Flying Karamazov Brothers, a fully-staged performance of “Tosca,” salsa singer Rubén Blades and the hit mu-sical, “In the Heights” all part of the opening month of October.

Hailing from our little corner of the world, Long Island’s own Idina Menzel will appear in concert Saturday, No-vember 5th. The much-loved star of “Rent” and “Wicked,” who also had a star turn on “Glee,” is the headliner at Tilles Center’s Gala 2011.

Representing the best of the New York stage and beyond are The Man-hattan Transfer and New York Voices, a Valentine’s Day concert with Linda Eder, and The Jimmy Dorsey Orchestra featuring the Pied Pipers. The singing will continue in Tilles Center’s Caba-ret at “Club T” with entertainers like Debby Boone, Marilyn Maye, The Hit Men, Maureen McGovern, Florence Henderson and Andrea Marcovicci.

In addition to the masterworks of Tchaikovsky, Rachmaninoff and Bort-niansky performed by Russia’s State Symphony Capella, South Africa’s Soweto Gospel Choir will perform on Long Island for the fi rst time. Their earthy rhythms, rich harmonies, en-ergetic dancing and colorful costumes will delight audiences.

International jazz superstar, Acad-emy and multiple-Grammy Award winner (including Album of the Year in 2008) Herbie Hancock will bring his iconic talent to the Tilles stage. Like all of the artists we present this season, Mr. Hancock is always on the forefront of world culture.

The Broadway hits will keep com-ing all season, with “The Color Purple,” “Fiddler on the Roof” and “Brigadoon.” The Flying Karamazov Brothers will bring their special brand of zaniness to Tilles Center audiences.

Grand opera returns to Long Island in the most dramatic style, with two beloved works, Puccini’s “Tosca” and Verdi’s “La Traviata,” performed by New York City’s Dicapo Opera Theatre under the direction of Michael Capas-so. Featuring lavish sets and full stag-ing, both performances will include a full orchestra and chorus, and will be sung in Italian.

Classical music fans will fi nd much to love throughout the 2011-12 sea-son, including the Vienna Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Fabio Luisi and featuring the Eroica Trio, the New York Philharmonic led by music director Alan Gilbert, violinist Hilary Hahn with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, the Dresden Philharmonic featuring the young cellist Gautier Capuçon, and the Bamberg Symphony under the baton of principal conductor Jonathan Nott with soloist Christian Zacharias. Special highlights of the classical music season include recitals by Itzhak Perlman and André Watts. The Sunday chamber music series, Music at Hillwood, will be a feast for the ears, with appearances from quar-tets from around the world, includ-ing Israel’s Ariel Quartet, the Talich Quartet from the Czech Republic, Ger-many’s Leipzig String Quartet and the winner of Italy’s Borciani Competition. The Los Angeles Guitar Quartet will be an exciting special addition this year.

Dance lovers will adore the upcom-ing season, with performances ranging from the inventive company MOMIX in “Botanica,” to the hilarious Les Ballets Trockadero de Monte Carlo and Com-plexions Contemporary Ballet, which has been featured on Fox’s hit show, “So You Think You Can Dance.”

Family audiences will have a wide range of performances to choose from, including Mo Willems’ beloved “Knuf-fl e Bunny” in the Kennedy Center The-ater’s “Knuffl e Bunny: A Cautionary Musical,” a family-length performance of MOMIX’s “Botanica,” New York The-atre Ballet’s “Alice in Wonderland Fol-lies,” Tilles Center audience favorite Golden Dragon Acrobats, and three

classic stories A Brown Bear, A Moon and a Caterpillar: Treasured Stories by Eric Carle, presented by Mermaid Theatre of Nova Scotia. A real thrill is also in store for our youngest patrons, when Dinosaur Petting Zoo arrives from Australia. Children will have the opportunity to feed, water and care for an amazing selection of dinosaurs and creatures in the Tilles Center Atrium in multiple limited-seating performances.

For the holidays the Nebraska The-atre Caravan returns by audience de-mand with their classic production of “A Christmas Carol,” we bring back the beloved Boston Pops Esplanade Or-chestra under the baton of Keith Lock-hart with featured guests Rockapella, and Judy Collins and Arlo Guthrie will bring their “Home for the Holidays” Winter Tour 2011 to the concert hall.

Also making a return appearance, Classic Albums Live! Craig Martin’s vision of taking the greatest rock al-bums of all time and recreating them on stage, note-for-note and cut-for-cut continues. This season will feature Pink Floyd’s Dark Side of the Moon and The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band performed exactly as they were in the recording studio.

Personalized and series subscrip-tions are available online at www.tillescenter.org, through the Box Of-fi ce at 516.299.3100 or by mail. Single tickets, as available, go on sale Friday, September 9th at 1 PM. Programs at Tilles Center are supported in part by the New York State Council on the Arts.
