Fulmar Road kindergarteners celebrate Earth Day

On Earth Day, April 22, students celebrated the in-
ternational event known as Earth Day, which pledges
support and raises awareness for environmental causes.
2021 marked the 51st anniversary of Earth Day and
this year’s theme was Restore Our Earth. Kindergar-
teners in Kathryn Jeselli’s class at Fulmar practiced
their cutting and gluing skills by making special hats
to commemorate the day and wore them outside with
Assistant Principal Elizabeth Blessing and she read
them Earth Day, Birthday, a story about a Lion and
his friends who want to plant trees, recycle bottles and
have fun on Earth Day, but Monkey wants to celebrate
his birthday instead. Jen Malley’s class used used mark-
ers, crayons, and water colors to express their feelings
through art while they too discussed the importance of
taking care of Mother Earth

Mahopac VFW commemorates Loyalty Day

Mahopac Veterans of Foreign Wars (VFW) Post 5491 hosted this year’s Loyalty Day ob Sunday, April
25, at Putnam County’s Veterans Park in Kent.

On May 1, 1930, 10,000 VFW members staged a rally at New York’s Union Square to promote patrio-
tism. rough a resolution adopted in 1949, May 1 evolved into Loyalty Day.

Observances began in 1950 on April 28 and climaxed May 1 when more than ve million people across
the nation held rallies.

At last month’s observation, state VFW representatives and local government o cials made comments
acknowledging the contributions and sacri ces of veterans, both present, on active duty and those who
made the ultimate sacri ce.
