Today's riddle: What did the bartender say to the jumper cables when they walked in? 🤔 (Answer below!)
1. Tiger And Mittens, Bonded Tabby Twins, Seek Home: Huntington Adoptable Pet Of The Week (patch.com) — Huntington-area animal lovers are invited to consider adopting Tiger and Mittens, an inseparable pair of tabby kittens soon arriving at Grateful Paw Cat Shelter in East Northport. The bonded siblings have thrived in foster care and are healthy, playful, and ready for a safe indoor home together, with the shelter emphasizing they should be adopted as a pair by a local family.
2. Elwood Senior Takes Seat On Board Of Education (patch.com) — Students in the Elwood community will have a stronger voice this school year as Elwood-John H. Glenn High School senior Ava Hopkins serves as the Board of Education's ex officio student member. Hopkins, a National Honor Society member and All-County runner, will attend meetings, share student perspectives on district issues, and receive training in board procedures while representing local classmates.
3. Huntington Hospital Performs New Limb-Saving Procedure To Help Avoid Amputation (patch.com) — Huntington residents now have access to a cutting-edge limb-saving surgery at Huntington Hospital, where doctors performed their first transverse tibial transport procedure on a high-risk patient facing possible amputation. The technique slowly moves a segment of shinbone using an external device to stimulate new blood flow, offering hope to people with severe peripheral vascular disease who have run out of other treatment options. Hospital leaders say this milestone underscores their commitment to bringing advanced, multidisciplinary care directly to the Huntington community.
4. 2 Arrested, 11 Violations Issued At Huntington Station Nightclub: Police (patch.com) — Town of Huntington officials and Suffolk police cited The Carousel Night Club on East Jericho Turnpike in Huntington Station for 11 building, fire, and code violations and arrested two employees over unlicensed security work. The multi-agency inspection involved town fire marshals, ordinance inspectors, and the state liquor authority, with both men due in court Sept. 17.
5. Huntington weighs tax cap override as growing number of New York municipalities face similar budget pressures (news12.com) — Huntington's Town Board is weighing whether to override New York's tax cap or impose deep service cuts, a choice that could affect your taxes and local programs. Officials say staying under the cap might mean 16% department cuts, while a higher tax levy would preserve staffing as similar pressures hit municipalities across Long Island.
