Yorktown boy lights Westchester’s Christmas tree

Liam Brady, a 7-year-old Yorktown resi-
dent, helped light a 40-foot Christmas Tree
on the day after anksgiving, signifying
the start of the holiday season in Westches-
ter County.

e tree lighting was held at Kensico
Dam Plaza in Valhalla, where the county
hosts its Winter Wonderland event. Learn
more at wwinterwonderland.com.

Liam was joined in lighting the tree by
County Executive George Latimer and the
Westchester County Parks Department.

Liam is a former patient at Maria Fareri
Children’s Hospital, which is a member of
the Westchester Medical Center Health
Network.

At just 18 months of age, Liam’s right
kidney was removed. Overworked and op-
erating at a lower capacity, Liam’s left kidney
started to fail, and a transplant was needed to
avoid a lifetime of dialysis or worse. ank-
fully, Liam’s cousin was a match and she do-
nated her kidney this past August.

among other things, to “make a

rm commitment” to complete
the uoridation program, not-
ing residents have been without

uoride in their drinking water
for six years.

Don Roberts, a member of
United Taxpayers of Yorktown,
was of a di erent mind, saying,
“ ere’s absolutely no reason
why we can’t have a at tax in the
budget.” He also asked whether
the state has any recommenda-
tions regarding the fund balance.
Supervisor Ilan Gilbert said it
is not a “hard, fast” rule, but the
state recommends a balance of 15
percent.

“Looking at your audit report
for this past year,” Roberts said, “I
think your fund balance is out of
control. e fund balance in your
audit report said you have $26.7
million of fund balance, and that
increased $4 million from the
prior year.”

Again, Gilbert stressed, “It is a
moving target.”

After questioning various line
items, asking what the town has
done to rectify the lack of com-
pensation on the 48 parcels in
Yorktown owned by the state and
where the board stands in regard
to a previous suggestion that a
budget advisory board be formed,
Roberts reiterated, “ ere’s no
reason the town has to raise taxes
this year; there’s none at all.

Lowe’s construction wreaks havoc on tra c Silver, Native American Jewelry.
Beautiful jewelry by casual people.
To the editor,
e Lowe’s store under construction at the intersection of Route 202 and the 256 Route 100 Somers, NY
(914) 232–8739
Taconic State Parkway turned portions of Yorktown into a literal parking lot.
Tra c congestion was said to have stretched at least a mile in each direction. Is this a

sign of things to come once Lowe’s opens?
Residents opposed putting any big box store at that location from the very start for

fear of tra c problems but faced sti opposition from the previous administration. It
seems it was more important for them to get their picture taken at Lowe’s ground-
breaking with shiny chrome-plated shovels than actually listen to taxpayers’ concerns.
Looks like you cannot stop progress especially when it intersects with political ambi-
tion.

e jury is still out on what will be Lowe’s economic contributions to Yorktown, but
the tra c it generates will undoubtedly add a continuing and incalculable hidden cost
to all of our daily lives. Is the Yorktown we once knew just a thing of the past?

Maybe we should rename this section of Route 202, “Tra c Jam Lane,” in these
bureaucrat’s honor?

play, as her versions of Shakespeare’s lovers gambol in the woods to escape the
grit and grime of the grid, at least momentarily.

All the actors are beautifully cast and a lot of fun to watch. eir naturalistic,
engaging styles are perfectly suited to Ms. Benitez’s free- owing, stream-of-
consciousness portrait of their world-weary travels and travails.

Adding to the a able experience is Denizen’s compact, shape-shifting per-
forming space. Every seat has a clear sightline. Each production’s set can be de-
signed to conform to the demands of play action. ere’s a lot of that here, with
some scenes requiring the actors to erupt in bursts of physical activity. In you’re
in the rst row, as I was, you might nd an actor or two virtually at your feet. It
helpfully heightens audience attention. e frenetic activity is smoothly orches-
trated under the sure-handed direction of Sarah Lynn Brown, whose feel for the
material teases out its sly humor very e ectively and economically.

Ms. Benitez is nothing if not an iconoclast about conventional dramatic struc-
ture. She goes her own way, as do the four characters she’s conjured to carry her
myriad messages, like Millennial missionaries.

Just as Mel, Steve, Olivia and Robert are exploring their identities, desires,
direction, and their life’s meaning, in the play, this emerging talent’s stylized and
kinetic way with words feels like she is exploring her voice and her ideas at the
same time, bringing us along for the wild ride.

is very promising new dramatist works hard to enlighten her characters’
sense of self and sense of worth. rough them, she exudes a quick wit, keen
insight into human nature, an inquisitive intellect, and, most important, hopeful-
ness and compassion.

e question she posits is whether living in a structured society with its re-
pressive rules is reality, or whether shedding worldly encumbrances to be at one
with nature o ers the purest form of self-realization.

As with all of life, there’s no pat answer, she suggests. e triumph of individu-
alism—call it libertarianism—is what shines through in the end, like sunlight
that re ects a brighter tomorrow.

Bodden returns to lead Huskers to victory

Yorktown girls win home opener

Yorktown senior guard Amber Bodden was out Yorktown’s Lindsay Boyle looks to pass Yorktown’s Amber Bodden takes a shot.

never would’ve known it. goes up for two.

Bodden registered 23 points, which included six
3-pointers, both team highs, in leading the Huskers
to a 46-40 girls basketball triumph against the Bears.

Bodden gave the credit to her success to her team-
mates and rst-year Yorktown coach Brian Mundy.

“It felt great to be back on the court playing the
game I love,” said Bodden, who returned to practice
three days before the home opener. “Being out for a
week killed me because I wasn’t with my team and
my coach, the grind and love for the game is what
made me able to perform tonight,” Bodden said.
“I couldn’t have done it without the support of my
teammates and coach checking up on me and sup-
porting me.”

Bodden hit her nal 3-pointer of the game from
the corner with 1:07 left in the contest, putting the
Huskers up 42-34.

“I was just thinking, we need to win this game, it’s
our rst home game, we have to do it for our team,
our new coach,” Bodden said. “We really came to-
gether as a team, and just played hard defense until
that moment, it wasn’t just me, it was a whole team
e ort.”

Bodden’s performance made quite an impression
on Mundy.

“She’s one of those kids that has one of those pure
shots,” Mundy said. “She’s got a quick release and if
she has any space what so ever, if she gets a good
look, she’s always going to have a decent shot of
making that three.”

To go along with her shooting prowess, Bodden
showed she could play stellar defense as well, making
a steal at half-court, then taking it in for a layup to
give Yorktown a 33-22 advantage late in the third
quarter.

“Again, it was my teammates,”Bodden said.“ ey
pressed hard and I read the play. I just went in and
grabbed it.”

at pressure was part of Yorktown’s plan, accord-
ing to Mundy.

“We started to pressure them a little full court and
once we started pressuring them, it got them out of
their rhythm a bit and it actually picked us up men-
tally and physically,” Mundy said. “Our girls like to
play hard, they want to press, they want to go 100
miles an hour and I love that about them.”

Also, a key part of the team e ort was the perfor-
mance at the foul line of Kat Severino. Severino, who
tallied 12 points, and a team high in both rebounds,
12, and steals, four, sealed the game by going 4 of
4 from the line, putting Yorktown (2-0) up 46-38
before Brewster scored its nal basket with just 7.6
seconds remaining.

For the game, Severino was 10 of 12 from the
charity stripe.

Jesse Barer had a strong game for Yorktown as
well, as she registered 10 rebounds, 4 assists and 6
points, including 4 of 4 from the foul line.

Ashley Zeolla (4 points) and Lindsay Boyle (1
point) also contributed to the Huskers victory.
