Under the Sea at the Argyle Penataquit Creek’S Native Plants Seatuck Leads Cleanup; More Scheduled Soon YOUR HOMETOWN PAPER SINCE 1949 | www.islipbulletin.net | JANUARY 30, 2020 | 75¢ Restoring Under the sea at the Argyle Penataquit Creek’s native plants Seatuck leads cleanup; more scheduled soon BY RANDALL WASZYNSKI In conjunction with Martin Luther King Day of Service, Seatuck Envi- ronmental Association organized a weed-pulling event at Penataquit Creek in Bay Shore. Several local groups and organizations followed Seatuck’s lead, gathering 26 total vol- unteers for the cleanup on a cold morning. Maureen Dunn, water quality spe- cialist for Seatuck, explained that invasive plant species like oriental bittersweet vines that wrap around trees and Japanese knotweed, both of which are harmful to the natural plant ecosystem here and can jeopar- dize the health of the creek, too. “Invasive plants directly compete Babylon’s Argyle Theatre production of the Broadway hit, Disney’s “The Little Mermaid,” is delightfully playful and brilliant.

  • Washington Heights Community Directory
    Washington Heights Community Resource Directory New York State Psychiatric Institute Center of Excellence for Cultural Competence May 2008 Community Profile: Washington Heights and Inwood A survey of New York City residents found that people who report having significant emotional distress are more likely to engage in unhealthy behaviors, such as getting no exercise, binge drinking, smoking, and eating a poor diet. Similarly, New Yorkers with significant emotional distress experience high rates of chronic illness, such as high cholesterol, high blood pressure, obesity, asthma, and diabetes. An added difficulty is that neighborhoods in New York with the lowest incomes often have the highest rates of significant emotional distress, often adding to the burden on these already underserved communities (New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, 2003). The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene (DOHMH) has conducted a number of community health surveys to assess the health and well-being of New Yorkers. Here, we present some of the factors important to the physical and mental health of the communities of Washington Heights and Inwood, to serve as background for the services listed in this directory. Washington Heights and Inwood: The population of Inwood and Washington Heights (I/WH) at the 2000 census was 270,700. More than half of the residents of these communities (51%) were born outside the United States, compared to 36% for New York City as a whole. Figure 1 shows the countries of origin for foreign-born members of Community District 12 (which is made up of Inwood and Washington Heights), while Table 1 lists foreign-born residents by country of origin.
