“PILOTING” COURSE TUESDAY OCTOBER 22 The Peconic Bay Power Squadron will present “Piloting”, starting at 6:30pm at the Riverhead Free Library, 330 Court Street, Riverhead. Piloting is the second in a series of Advanced Grade courses that go far beyond the concepts presented in typical public boating classes, but the first 2 courses in the series, Seamanship and Piloting do not have to be taken in any particular order. Students learn navigation techniques for piloting a boat in coastal and inland conditions. The course empha-sizes planning and checking along with the use of GPS for determining position, and introduces digital charting along with traditional charting, compass and dead reckoning skills. Plotting, labeling, use of the compass, aids to navigation and a host of related topics are included in this all-new approach to coastal and inland piloting. Piloting is a multi-week course (continues on 10/29, 11/12, 11/19, 12/3 & 12/10) that is part of a series toward advanced boating education. Typically this class is preceded by Seamanship and followed by, Advanced Piloting, Junior Navi-gation and Navigation which together cover a wider spectrum of boating knowl-edge than you will find anywhere else. The $120.00 class fee includes a student guide, The Weekend Navigator textbook and a set of navigation/plotting tools. (Member discount available) To learn more or to reserve your space, call Debby Tennyson at 516-640-5612 or visit www.PBPS.us

SOUTHOLD HISTORICAL SOCIETY’S FALL LECTURE SERIESThis lecture series featuring historians and researchers from across the Long Island region. The lectures are held in cooperation with Peconic Landing, who graciously hosts the series, in the Community Center located on the north side of Route 25 just east of Greenport. Below is the list of the remaining lectures (all at 8pm):October 22 — A History of Nunley’s Amusement Park, Marisa Berman Nunley’s Amusement Park in Baldwin, NY, was a beloved family destination for Long Islanders from 1939 until it closed in 1995. This illustrated presentation will document the history of amusement parks in America and will present a guided tour through Nunley’s featuring stories and memories from local residents. Pre-sented by Marisa L. Berman, a nonprofit professional and historian. November 6 — Gentlemen Cartographers of Long Island, Nicole Menchise In nearly every archive there are hand drawn maps by surveyors and amateur car-tographers. Often the gentlemen who create these sketches were well educated, monied, and had the luxury of learning the skill of cartography from their own reading and practice. This lecture will examine several original, hand-drawn sur-veys and maps from the 18th and 19th centuries found in museums from all over Long Island, and examine the lives of the men who drew these properties and land-scapes and look at how the accuracy of those maps held up over time. The pro-gram will be presented by Nicole Menchise, the Archivist-Librarian of the Oyster Bay Historical Society and the Collections Manager of Raynham Hall Museum. November 20 — How New York City Invented Christmas, Ronald Brown The Dutch banned Christmas in New Amsterdam, but the arrival of large numbers of English Anglicans, German Lutherans and Irish Catholics, the pagan holiday of “Christ’s Mass” gained a foothold in the city. Washington Irving argued that New Yorkers needed a nice respectable winter holiday Thomas Nast dragged St. Nicho-las from his homeland in Turkey to the North Pole, designed a warm red costume for him, hired a squad of reindeer to carry him around and gave him a wife. Learn more about how New York City made Christmas what it is today from our guest speaker, Dr. Ronald J. Brown, Associate Professor, Touro College and Unification Theological Seminary.Dec 4 —The Home Front: The Spanish American War & Camp Wikoff 1898-99,Richard Barons — Through letters, local newspapers, diaries and extraordinary photographs, Richard Barons will recount the actual experiences that South Fork citizens had with Montauk’s Camp Wikoff during the short period of time that it held over 22,000 men. Built very quickly on the isolated tip of Montauk, the camp was designed to hold soldiers returning from Cuba with communicable diseases. As with any governmental plan, there were ups and downs. This is the story of the war and the Camp as well as the relationship our communities had with the events that took place so nearby. This program will be presented by Richard Barons, the Execu-tive Director of the East Hampton Historical Society.

BACK TO THE FUTURE: CONTEMPORARY ARTISTS OCTOBER 18- NOVEMBER 23

The Suffolk County Historical Society, 300 West Main Street, Riverhead, is pleased to announce a new exhibition, Back to the Future: Contemporary Artists Consider the Permanent Collection, with an opening reception on Friday, October 18 from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. The show aims to juxtapose newly created art near historical objects in the Suffolk County Historical Society’s extensive permanent collection. The contrast between new and old reveals the varied ways history influences the present and shapes the future. The show features 11 painters, sculptors and photographer, namely, Cara Barer, Rob Carter, Judith Condon, Elizabeth Duffy, Katherine Frey, Susan Hoeltzel, Keith Long, Judy Richardson, Donna Sharrett, Karen Shaw, and Andy Warhol. The ex-hibit is curated by Mary Lou Cohalan, director of CarriageHouse Arts, and former director of the Islip Art Museum. Each artist has contributed work that is in dia-logue with the past that comments, critiques and often reinvents historic objects that form the SCHS 22,000 piece collection. The new works are exhibited in the gallery rooms of the Suffolk County Historical Society, a National Register land-mark building, in proximity to the artifacts that inspired them.THE ARTISTS, THEIR WORK AND THEIR IDEAS:

In the 1960’s, Andy Warhol created his “souper dress” for the Campbell Soup Company. As an artist and social critic, he believed that in the future people would wear paper cloth-ing, simply throwing outfits away when they needed laundering or mending. The Warhol paper dress, with its iconic imprints of Campbell soup cans, is exhibited here next to an elaborate 19th Century mourning outfit from the Suffolk County Historical Society. Unlike the paper dress, the intricate lace skirt, gauze blouse and brocade jacket of the mourning costume are hand-made, and meant to be passed on for generations. When considered side-by side, the two dresses are a literal “fashion statement,” a vivid illustration of the way modern consumer culture and mass production has replaced notions of continuity and permanence.•Karen Shaw’s large installation based on maps explores the arbitrary nature of boundaries, and the way man-made definitions of nations and states--such as those in India and Pakistan, Israel and Palestine--are often capricious. Her work is paired with historic maps from the SCHS collection that echo similar themes, including the way Native American holdings in Suffolk County and elsewhere disappeared into the defined towns and hamlets we now know as Long Island.

•Cara Barer’s stunning photographs of books, juxtaposed with archives from the SCHS collection that are about to be digi-talized, call into question the future of his-toric books and records as physical objects.•Katherine Frey’s decorated plastic plates are a humorous critique of fine heirloom china from the past on display at the SCHS.•Judith Richardson’s and Keith Long’s sculp-tures made from furniture parts echo the formal elements in the SCHS furniture col-lection, particularly the rare 1983 Congres-sional desk with its over-the-top decorative features.•Judith Condon’s warts-and-all ceramic busts of ordinary people were created in re-sponse to the heroic aesthetic that defines the 19th Century marble busts of Long Island industrialists in the SCHS collection.•Donna Sharrett’s mandalas are made of memorabilia and human hair. They are mod-ern-day interpretations of the SCHS’s collec-tion of funeral hair wreaths.•Elizabeth Duffy’s collages of birds of prey are contemporary reinterpretations of the SCHS extensive collection of stuffed wildlife.•Susan Hoeltzel’s installation is inspired by the farm implements on display in the SCHS basement exhibition.•Rob Carter’s video, Metropolis, captures the sweep of history in Charlotte, NC, America’s fastest growing city. Created through paper pop-up animation, the piece illustrates the relentless building, destruction and rebuild-ing that characterizes all modern towns and cities, including Suffolk County with its rapid development and contested land use. The exhibit is collaboration between CarriageHouse Arts, a non-profit organiza-tion supporting artists and artists’ projects, and the Suffolk County Historical Society. The collaboration received funding from the competitive arm of the Suffolk County Office of Film and Cultural Affairs because grantors were particularly interested in the unlikely partnership between an agency pro-moting local history and a cutting edge art institution. “We hope the exhibit will show that history is not static, something relegat-ed to the past-- but something that is alive as an influence in the present and a key to the future,” said curator Mary Lou Cohalan. For more information or to schedule a visit, call the Suffolk County Historical Society at 631-727-2881 ext 107.

THE NORTH FORK COMMUNITY THEATRE 2013-14 SEASONFor more info and for Season Subscriptions visit www.nfct.com

I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change — Nov. 1-17 This celebration of the mating game takes on the truths and myths behind that contemporary conundrum know as ‘the relationship.’ Act I explores the journey from dating and waiting to love and marriage, while Act II reveals the agonies and triumphs of in-laws and newborns, trips in the family car and pick-up tech-niques of the geriatric set. This hilarious revue pays tribute to those who have loved and lost, to those who have fallen on their face at the portal of romance, to those who have dared to ask, ‘Say, what are you doing Saturday night?’Steel Magnolias — Jan.17 - Feb. 2Concerned with a group of gossipy southern ladies in a small-town beauty parlor, the play is alternately hilarious and touching-and, in the end, it draws on their underlying strength and love, which give the play, and its characters, the special quality to make them truly touching, funny and marvelously amiable company in good times and bad.One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest — Mar. 14 - 30Upon admittance to a mental institution, a brash rebel rallies the patients to take on the oppressive head nurse, a woman he views as more dictator than nurse. This comically sharp indictment of the establishment continues to be relevant today as it explores what is “normal.”Into the Woods — May 15 - June 1Into the Woods combines the well-known fairy tales of Cinderella, Rapunzel, Jack and the Beanstalk, and Little Red Riding Hood with the story of the Baker and his Wife who desperately want a child but who have been cursed by childlessness by the Witch next door. To break the spell, they embark on a quest that brings togeth-er many popular fairy tale characters. What begins as a lively, irreverent fairy tale becomes a moving lesson about greed, happiness, and community responsibility.The Wedding Singer — July 24 - Aug. 10It’s 1985 and rock-star wannabe Robbie Heart is New Jersey’s favorite wedding singer. He’s the life of the party, until his own fiancee leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his affection. As luck would have it, Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and unless Robbie can pull off theperformance of a decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever.

Great Scott! 1963 was a big year when Southold Pharmacy first opened. 2013 year marks the 50th Anni-

versary of the fine establishment. It’s a place for prescriptions and medical sup-plies and the fine staff on-hand is truly phenomenal. The Whitaker Historical Collection has a June 19, 1986 Suffolk Times ar-ticle on file reminding us that Southold Pharmacy is “more than just a drug store.” There’s not just prescriptions available but “the pharmacy also carries such diverse items as newspapers, candies, greeting cards, bric-a-brac and sta-tionary supplies.” There are “back-to-school” items readily available as well as books by local North Fork authors. Actually, there is so much to “check out” when you visit the Southold Pharmacy that you never know just what might be “in store” for you. Southold Pharmacy underwent physical expansions in 1964 and 1968. A remodeling was done in 1977 and a most extensive expansion was done in 1986. Originally the Southold Pharmacy was a Bohack’s in the 1950s. When it came time for the Bohack’s Company to acquire the Albertson House property on Youngs Avenue and Main Road in Southold, as Southold Historical Soci-ety director Geoffrey K. Fleming lets us know in his Images of America – South-old book, in 1956 Bohack’s moved its Southold store location to the Albertson House and “Today, the Southold IGA occupies the building.”Taking Great Stock!The IGA Supermarket on Main Street in Southold was closed for the winter in 2009-2010. Southold Pharmacy stocked basic grocery items such as milk, butter, eggs, bread, canned goods, cereals, pasta, paper goods, household cleaners, and more. Nice way of looking out for your neighbor!Raising Cane!Surgical supplies had been on hand as Don Scott explained: “We carried a small selection of surgical supplies in the past, but we decided to make these products an integral part of our expansion when we became aware of growing requests from elderly people, quality nurses, and doctors who were looking for a local source for these kind of supplies.” As a matter of fact, Southold Pharmacy was certified as an “Accredited Orthopedic Appliance Fitter” by the professional group called Medical Equipment Unlimited.This Does Compute! A Breath of Fresh Air!In 1983 Southold Pharmacy’s computerized prescription department went into operation. Not only are inventories and prices tracked, but the pharmacists are able to “maintain an up-to-date prescription file on every customer.” Southold Pharmacy is a “pharmacist-owned” pharmacy. According to that June 19, 1986 Suffolk Times article, we get reminded that Don Scott and his former partner, William Golder, owned Southold Pharmacy in 1963 and it was in its same location as it is today on the Main Road in Southold. Don Scott bought out William Golder in 1976 and William Verme was asked to “to take a minority equity position in the establishment in that same year.” Retired pharmacist and charter boat operator William E. Golder “died peacefully in his sleep on May 27, 2005.” A May 30, 2005 Newsday obituary shares that William Golder was born on July 4, 1916 at Southampton Hospital and that he was a graduate of Columbia School of Pharmacy. Not only was Wil-liam Golder a founding owner of Southold Pharmacy but he also was a lifetime member of the New York State Archaeological Society. Co-owner of the Southold Pharmacy William Verme “died in his sleep on Sunday morning, December 7 {1993} in Huntington.” A Suffolk Times obitu-ary for William Verme shares that William sold advertising space for Suffolk Life before being associated with Southold Pharmacy and that he also worked for sev-eral years at the Mattituck Marina. I remember Bill as his genial self and totally agree with the thought that Bill was considered to be “the mayor of Southold.” Donald William Scott “died at home on Friday, October 26, 2012 sur-rounded by his family.” Born in Brooklyn on June 15, 1928, Don was educated at Greenport Schools and Cathedral Prep. “He attended the Immaculate Concep-tion Seminary in Lloyd Harbor for a time and then attended St. John’s University College of Pharmacy,” according to an October 26, 2012 Newsday obituary. Don Scott was “previously a pharmacist for Kramer’s Pharmacy.” Both Bill Verme and Don Scott were members of St. Patrick’s Roman Cath-olic Church in Southold. Bill was a member of the Men’s Club of St. Patrick’s and Don an active communicant. Don’s priorities were “church, family and business.”Let’s Keep It in the Family!Current Southold Pharmacy owners Paulette Ofrias and Suzanne Fujita keep their family in mind. Paulette mentioned: “My dad would often comment that he would never have taken the chance on opening the pharmacy if my mother Ann (McCaffery) had not encouraged him to do so, that along with help from his mother and stepfather, Therese and Bruce Baltz. Another key person was his Uncle Gabe Zillo. It was truly a family business from the start.” Southold Phar-macy and Scott Home Healthcare - wow! What a real jewel!

You can stop by the Southold Free Library and see Don Scott’s entry among 40 personal narratives and memories of World War II that Ellen Brennan Williams compiled in her book We’re in this Together. Don shares thoughts about his Uncle Gabe Zillo being so instrumental.

Long Island’s First Inhabitants: Paleo, Archaic, Transitional, Woodland: A 9000 Year History of the Indian Occupation of Long Island by William E. Golder is also avail-able at the Southold Free Library.

Southold Historical Society has a copy of an Oral Report that is an interview with William Golder.

The Whitaker Historical Collection is located in the Southold Free Library and is open Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, from 1 to 4 p.m. or by appointment. Staff members Melissa Andruski and Dan McCarthy will be available to help.

Southold Historical Society Headquarters is located in the Prince Building on the Main Road in Southold just east of the Main Street Grill. Dan McCarthy is available on Tuesdays from 9-3. Visit on the web at www.southoldhistoricalsociety.org or call 765-5500 for further information.

and not much more is know of it. Like our ever-changing lives and our ever-changing world, Southold and the Southold Pharmacy continue to evolve. Five decades later, the cellar now

has a cement floor, but the carpeted floors still creak — and this jewel of the Southold business district still serves the community well...and the Scott family is still in charge. ¢

Down in the Southold Pharmacy basement:

Over the last 5 decades there were many, many

employees called on to bring up supplies and

tradition to leave a signature one of the posts.
