NSHS to bring cutout fans to the stands

BY TOM WALOGORSKY
In accordance with state and local
safety guidelines, fans attendance at
high school sports games is still lim-
ited or not allowed. To continue to
show support for North Salem’s stu-
dent athletes, o cials have announced
they will be displaying Tiger Pride in
the form of “Fan in the stands” cut-
out signs to be displayed at sporting
events beginning on February 19.
Supporters sent in pictures of them-
selves decked out in blue, gold, and
white to showcase their support and
spirit, and the cutouts will be displayed
at winter sports contests for boys and
girls basketball, and volleyball in the
gymnasium. In addition to supporting
our student athletes, the $30 purchase
price of each 30” cutout will bene t
the NSHS Athletic Booster Club.
When the weather improves, the
cutouts will be moved outdoors for
spring athletic contests with purchas-
ers being allowed to choose the loca-
tion of their picture. e cutouts will
also be displayed at baseball, softball,
lacrosse, and track events. Even with
a lack of traditional attendance due to
the ongoing Covid pandemic, North
Salem’s student athletes can still see
the support of their parents and the
community until fans are allowed to
return in the future.

NSHS student athletes will soon be
cheered on by spirited cutouts.

A drink to soothe your stomach

Smoothies are often associated with breakfast, but they actually can be enjoyed all day long.
Smoothies have been around since the 1920s, when the rst blender was invented by Stephen
Poplawski. In 1939, the Waring blender company designed a pamphlet that came with the appliance
that included fruit-based drinks.
Smoothies can include a variety of ingredients and serve various purposes. is recipe for a “Ginger
Papaya Smoothie” from “Super Smoothies” (Crestline) by Ellen Brown employs ginger, which can help
overcome nausea and other stomach issues.

Ginger Papaya Smoothie

Yields 4 1-cup servings

1 cup chilled papaya nectar
1 container (8 ounces) peach low-fat yogurt

1/2 cup silken tofu
1/4 cup whey protein powder
3 tablespoons crystallized ginger
2 cups papaya cubes, frozen
4 papaya spears for garnish (optional)
Combine papaya nectar, yogurt, tofu, whey protein powder, and
crystalized ginger in a blender or smoothie maker. Blend on high
speed for 45 seconds or until mixture is puréed and smooth. Add
papaya cubes and blend on high speed again until mixture is smooth.
Serve immediately garnished with papaya spears, if desired.
Tip: Crystallized ginger is fresh ginger that has been cooked in sugar syrup
to render it both sweet and tender. It is usually then coated with sugar to
prevent the slices from sticking together. To find crystallized ginger, look in the
baking section of your supermarket rather than the produce aisle.
