TERESA LESTER
Downers Grove boutique readies for ‘harvest season’ By BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com
DOWNERS GROVE — Teresa Lester has Valentine’s Day circled on the calendar. But it’s not just flowers and chocolates she’s looking out for. In the world of adult retail, Valentine’s Day is harvest season. Several weeks after opening Teresa’s Boutique, a lingerie and adult accessories store, Lester is hoping to make a splash in Downers Grove come Feb. 14. “If you don’t make it through Valentine’s Day, you don’t make it at all,” Lester said. And she would know. Lester has been working in adult retail her entire career, since 19 when she worked up to purchasing manager at an adult novelty store in Chicago. After stints at various west suburban adult stores, the Brookfield resident and her husband decided to venture out on their own. She opened Teresa’s Boutique in last month at 652 Ogden Ave. Lester said they considered a few spots before settling on Downers Grove. “It was definitely hard to find a location,” Lester said. “Because we didn’t know what we were getting into.” They chose the Ogden Avenue spot not only for it’s high-volume traffic, but for its proximity to Sybaris, an upscale romantic destination for couples a few doors east. Also, the store’s space is divided into two rooms, which allowed Lester to put the more adult accessories in the back, out of view from passers-by. The front room is dedicated to lingerie and the less risqué items — which is part of an effort to make the store feel more welcoming. The exterior is pink, the store’s sign is adorned with a heart, and Lester notes that she does not stock adult magazines, movies or books. “We don’t want to be a sketchy store that people are afraid to walk into,” she said. Through Valentine’s Day, the clientele will mostly be couples and men searching for gifts. For the men, it often helps that the store is staffed by Lester, her sister and her niece, she said. In this industry, most men

‘NEVER FORGET’
District 58 planning safety and security forum Feb. 6
As the shooting tragedy in Newtown, Conn., unfolded, Richard Samonte, 71, of Downers Grove watched in shock along with the rest of the country. But the retired teacher who spent 40 years in the classroom was also moved by the relationship between teachers and students at Sandy Hook Elementary School. Samonte spent most of his career teaching social studies at O’Neill Middle School in Downers Grove. In the weeks after the tragedy, Samonte decided to place flags in his yard. He tried to place each one the same time as a funeral, so that each flag represents an individual student or teacher. “We tend to forget a lot of things very quickly,” he said. “The flags are a thing to remember.” Brian Hudson — bhudson@shawmedia.com

DOWNERS GROVE — Downers Grove’s grade school district will host a forum for parents in February that will detail safety and security measures following the Newtown tragedy last month. School District 58, in partnership with the Downers Grove police and fire departments, will host the forum at 7 p.m. Feb. 6 at Village Hall, 801 Burlington Ave. District 58 administrators announced plans for the forum in the days after the shooting at a Connecticut elementary school that took the lives of 20 children and six faculty members. While the district regularly reviews its safety procedures, administrators wanted to give parents and residents a chance to learn and get involved, Superintendent Kari Cremascoli said last month. “Presenters will share an overview of the numerous safety and security measures in place in District 58 schools, as well as interagency partnerships and our future considerations,” district spokeswoman Jennifer Waldorf said in an email Friday. After the Newtown school shooting, District 58 also updated its policy for locking doors during the school day. Now, all exterior doors, including the main entrance, are to remain locked while classes are in session. A doorbell was installed last month at each building for visitors to be buzzed in. — Suburban Life Media

Cronin calls on DuPage to act as beacon for solutions to state’s fiscal problems By BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com
With a handful of Downers Grove business and village leaders in attendance, County Board Chairman Dan Cronin praised DuPage County’s accomplishments in business and governance. But he had to couch it with one unavoidable fact of geography: DuPage County is still within Illinois. In a state of the county address Thursday, Cronin delivered his remarks over a luncheon with scores of business leaders and elected officials from Downers Grove, Cronin Lisle, Westmont and Woodridge. Cronin recapped high points from his two years in office, including consecutive years of budget cuts, a smaller county staff and plans to streamline government agencies. Those steps, which have helped keep the county’s property tax rate down, are among the many factors that have kept DuPage County an attractive destination for businesses, Cronin said. As state lawmakers feud over Illinois’ intractable fiscal problems, Cronin suggested they look to DuPage as an example. “I believe that DuPage can be a bright light in the dim prospects of economic growth and job creation in our state,” he said. He has delivered similar comprehensive addresses before — recently to the Naperville Chamber of Commerce in September. Since that speech, the County Board has approved a budget that cuts $8.1 million in spending from last year. But state lawmakers, in the same timeframe, have made little measurable progress on the state’s looming pension problem — a nearly $100 billion unfunded liability that has led to multiple downgrades of the state’s credit rating. In 2011, Illinois led the nation in outof-state migration, and was second in 2012 only behind superstorm-ravaged New Jersey, Cronin noted. “The impact of this flight out of our state is immense,” he said, citing a statewide think-tank. “Illinois lost out on $26 billion in taxable income between 1995 and 2009 due to folks moving out of state.” Cronin contrasted the state’s fiscal disarray with DuPage’s “responsible, frugal” government. “Since our budget is in solid shape, we

are in the unique position of having the ability to turn our focus into what’s happening at several of the county’s independent agencies,” he said. Last year, the county commissioned an accounting firm study of two dozen agencies, looking for inefficiencies. The firm’s findings led to the DuPage ACT initiative — or “accountable, consolidation and transparency.” Agencies have updated hiring processes and reviewed salaries and benefits. Several have cut cell phones and credit cards. “I don’t see the need for any credit cards in government frankly,” Cronin said. Cuts within the Election Commission alone are slated to save nearly $600,000 over the next three years, he said. “It is my belief that DuPage County is ripe — is ripe — to serve as a laboratory to determine what works and what doesn’t,” he said. The steps have helped keep costs down for taxpayers; DuPage County’s property tax levy has stayed even at $66.6 million the past three years. That, along with the county’s unparalleled quality of life, is key for economic development, Cronin said. But there is stiff competition from the east, Cronin said. “We have a mayor in Chicago that’s very aggressive about and poaching business,” he said. In recent years, several large companies left their suburban offices for space in the city, often with tax incentives attached. The former Sara Lee, for instance, received $6.5 million in 2012 when it moved its headquarters from Downers Grove to the Loop. But DuPage County is just as serious about economic recruitment, Cronin said. “We will go to great lengths in accommodating these businesses,” he said. “To the extent that we can offer incentives, we’ll play that game.” The remarks were generally welcomed by the business leaders in attendance. “We’re fortunate to have a very well run county here in DuPage,” said Michael Cassa, who as director of the Downers Grove Economic Development Corp. is tasked with attracting businesses to the village. “My job’s made a lot easier by the policies and practices of DuPage County.”

Q & A with the Hearing Doctor Q: I have ringing in my ears. It started about six months ago and it is constant. I’m worried that it might be a sign of medical problem. What causes this? A: What you are experiencing is called “tinnitus”. In most cases, it is more of an irritant than a major problem. However, if you Dr. Terri Lightbody experience (630) 580-5777 tinnitus, you should have it evaluated to find the cause. Tinnitus can be perceived as many different sounds such as humming, ringing or buzzing and it may be constant or periodic, varying in loudness. There can be several causes of tinnitus. It can be caused by loud noises, related to medical disorders such as ear infections or Meniere’s disease, or may be caused by use of certain drugs. There is also a very high incidence of tinnitus with the presence of hearing loss (especially highfrequency hearing loss). This relationship can be related to the well-established principle that a peripheral disorder such

as a sensori-neural hearing loss (within the cochlea) produces an increase in brain activity. In other words, the brain makes a ‘sound’ trying to compensate for the lack of stimulation in the cochlea. Often, negative emotion is attached to the tinnitus sound and increased attention is paid to it— making it difficult for a patient to cope. Tinnitus becomes more difficult to deal with when there is uncertainty or fear involved. A hearing evaluation is the first step to finding out what may be causing your tinnitus. Once a medical evaluation has ruled any physiological causes of tinnitus, a tinnitus treatment plan is created to help you manage the negative side-effects of tinnitus. The good news is that today, patients usually have several options, when it comes to their tinnitus treatment plan. At times, getting help is as simple as following a relaxation plan and ‘sound generators’ in certain environments. Other patients need personal sound masking devices or even a specialized hearing aid to help habituate the tinnitus.

Downers Grove Council to consider broader chicken rules, permitting By BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com
Up next
DOWNERS GROVE — Downers Grove leaders will consider changes to the village fowl ordinance that would allow more than 13,000 homes to keep backyard chickens while introducing tighter oversight for the would-be bird-keepers. Next week, the village council will consider a series of amendments pitched by village staff to broaden and update Downers Grove’s 26-year-old chicken rules. Downers Grove is one of more than a dozen west suburban communities that let residents raise chickens, though with some limitations. Most notably, chickens must be kept in a coop at least 50 feet from the nearest property line, a size restriction that disqualifies all but 509 lots. The proposal before the council would cut that setback down to 20 feet, making 13,883 lots — all but a handful of Downers Grove’s single-family residential properties — eligible, according to the village. Meanwhile, the proposed revisions would introduce a permit and inspection process for chickens and coops. According to the draft, residents who want to keep chickens would have to register with the village, and they’d have to notify neighbors and the Illinois Department of Agriculture.
The chicken ordinance is due to be discussed at a standing committee meeting 6 p.m. Tuesday at Village Hall, 801 Burlington Ave.

They’d also have to acquire a $77 village permit that includes an inspection of the coop. Chicken coops are currently unlicensed in the village, and the ordinance has been enforced only as complaints are made. Since 2007, the village has received six complaints of backyard chickens, and most of those instances ended with the chickens being removed. But two complaints in the fall of 2012 spurred the village to reconsider the fowl ordinance. The two families, who keep chickens in violation of the ordinance, petitioned the council to consider more equitable limitations. After the village council voted to reconsider the ordinance Dec. 4, village officials researched the matter and published the proposed amendments Thursday.

believes residents should be able to sound off on a matter that could affect most of them. “When you look at what's out there and the conversation between the residents and the argument for and against, it looks a lot like a ‘he said, she said’ type of thing,” Waldack said Tuesday night, “and it has the possibility of impacting just every lot in Downers Grove.” But Mayor Martin Tully said he sees the referenda as an abdication of elected leaders' responsibility. The ordinance has been on the books for 26 years; the village is not breaking new ground, he said. Most of the council fell into agreement with Tully. “I think that our obligation should be to roll up our sleeves and work on it,” he said.

The report and proposed changes were partly based on recent revisions that other Chicago suburbs have made to their chicken rules. Village staff is not proposing changing the number of chickens that can be kept. The maximum would still be four adults over 18 weeks and four chickens younger than 18 weeks. Staff also proposed loosening the confinement rules. Chickens would be allowed to move around in a run or chicken tractor during the day, but must be fully enclosed in a coop at night. The amendment would introduce some new restrictions. Roosters and guinea fowl, currently allowed in the village, would be prohibited, as would the slaughtering of chickens. Meanwhile, a plan to let voters weigh in on the chicken ordinance fell flat last week, with slim support for a pair of proposed referenda in the April election. The two advisory ballot measures, as drawn up by Commissioner Bill Waldack, would have asked residents whether the village should update the rules to allow more chicken coops. After an informal tally of opinion the Jan. 8 meeting, Waldack was the only one in favor of going to referenda. Next week is the deadline for getting referenda on the ballot, and Waldack said he

Good Sam Hospital drops request for 365-day banner BY BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com
DOWNERS GROVE — Officials at Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital are dropping plans for a three-story, yearround promotional banner after the issue seemed dead on arrival with the village council last week. The Downers Grove hospital sought permission from village leaders to hang a 1,200-square-foot banner 365 days out of the year. Currently, the hospital has permission to hang the banner 180 days out of each year, but Good Samaritan officials said they want more flexibility in promoting their awards and accolades. After an initial discussion Jan. 8, the council was slated to make a decision at last night’s council meeting. But the hospital pulled its request late last week in light of village leaders’ doubts and concerns. “From what we heard at the meeting, it didn’t appear that the village was going to be favorable,” Laura Neiberg, the hospital’s vice president for ancillary services and community health, said in a phone interview Friday. “I think we just wanted to be able to maintain our good working relationship we have.” Since 2009, the hospital has, with per-

mission from the village, periodically draped a 1,200-square-foot banner on a tower facing Highland Avenue. The hospital uses the banner as a promotional tool — to highlight, for instance, being named among the top 100 hospitals in 2011 by Thomson Reuters — but it is difficult to anticipate when the hospital will receive such honors, Neiberg said at the Jan. 8 council meeting. The hospital came to the council already facing an uphill battle. Last month, the plan commission recommend that the council reject the request. Although the village has made it an official priority to support and promote the hospital, eight of the nine commission members said the request did not meet that standard. Commission members expressed concerns that the banner, if installed all year, would become lost in the background,

DOWNERS GROVE — In honor of Elvis and what would have been his 78th birthday last week, the Downers Grove Park District is hosting a “Blue Suede Bingo Party” Friday. The party runs from 12:30 to 2 p.m. at Lincoln Center, 935 Maple Ave. The program costs $1 for Downers Grove residents and $3 for nonresidents. “Come and celebrate like the ‘King’ and play Elvis Bingo for great prizes,” the event’s calendar listing states.

Q: Can dentists prevent cavities before they happen? A: Dentistry is an ever-evolving science. A breakthrough
study last year may help dentists identify at-risk locations on individual teeth and let them take preventative steps before a cavity starts. The $3.4 million National Institutes of Health study, led by a researcher at the Indiana University School of Dentistry, followed 565 children, aged 5 to 13, over four years. The study examined what’s called “caries lesions,” chalky, white spots on a tooth that signify the beginning of demineralization. Some, but not all lesions progress into cavities. By developing and applying a ranking system for lesions, researchers were able to determine which were most likely to go on to become a cavity. Armed with this knowledge, dentists will be able to identify which teeth are most at risk for a cavity and can use a fluoride treatment or a sealant as a pre-emptive strike without waiting for a cavity to develop. Every day, researchers at universities and hospitals around the world are working on ways to advance the science of dentistry. The science has come a long way since ancient times when people believed tooth decay was caused by tiny creatures called tooth worms. Talk with your dentist about the advances he’s seen in his career.

Library looking to future with new Strategic Plan
It’s sad that some kids vandalize holiday scenes
To the Editor: Why do kids have to destroy other people’s property to have fun? My husband and I have been putting up holiday decorations at Halloween and Christmas for many years. Now we are deciding if we should continue to do so after having our Christmas decorations vandalized on Jan. 6. Someone driving a gray or silver Suburban around midnight Jan. 6 came into our yard and smashed some of our yard decorations. So, if you own a Suburban and your kid was out at midnight Jan. 6, maybe you should ask them what they were doing.

Passing VAWA is vital to protecting society
To the Editor: In the 18th and early 19th centuries, an engraved metal plaque known as a firemark was widely used in both America and Great Britain to indicate that a structure carried fire insurance. Homes and businesses not bearing the firemark were commonly left to burn; often the fire brigades would pass them by in full blaze. Today, this practice would never be tolerated. But picking and choosing whom to save from crisis was the cornerstone of Congress’ motivation for not reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act this past See LETTERS, Page 18

Under the leadership of our outstanding Library Board of Trustees, we completed the development of a Strategic Plan, which will guide the library for the next couple of years. It’s already begun having good effects. The foremost feature of the Strategic Plan is a continued emphasis on books and reading, including reading in new formats. We have expanded our purchasing of printed and electronic books to serve the varying needs and interests of the community. For access to the full catalog of our 300,000-item traRick Ashton ditional collections, please see swan.mls.lib.il.us. To begin exploring a growing array of electronic book resources, try emedialibrary.lib.overdrive.com. You can read them on your eReader, tablet, laptop or smartphone. Speaking of wonderful electronic devices, one of our new initiatives is to help our patrons use these tools more effectively. We have increased the amount and variety of technology-use training we offer, so that information-finding and electronically based reading will be more rewarding. We have presented a few device-specific workshops, beginning with the following instruction: “First, tear off the plastic wrap and take it out of the box.” For information on these classes, check the library’s calendar at dglibrary. org/calendar.html. Other technological advances guided by the Strategic Plan include a capable mobile app (dgl.boopsie.com) that provides great access to library resources on the pocket-sized screen. Also exciting is a new electronic magazine subscription service (https://rbdg.envionsoftware. com/downersgroveil/zinio) where you can see your favorite magazines on a regular basis for free. Meanwhile, we are embarking on a renovation program for the interior of our well-loved building at 1050 Curtiss St.; architects are now competing for the opportunity to design the needed improvements. The library board will select an architectural firm to help us extend the attractiveness and usefulness of the library building. You will begin to see the impact of this planning in a few months.

NEWS BRIEFS Downers Grove South band headed to Georgia jazz competition
25-year vet named Downers Grove police deputy chief
DOWNERS GROVE — Downers Grove South High School’s jazz ensemble is will travel to Savannah, Ga., in March as one of only 12 bands in the country selected to participate in a national music competition. The students will compete in the eighth annual Swing Central Jazz High School Competition and Workshop from March 27 to 29. The event is part of the Savannah Music Festival, which includes a range of performances of world-class jazz, classical, blues, bluegrass and gospel. During their time in Savannah, students will work with jazz masters, perform in showcases on Savannah’s River Street, play in competition rounds and attend festival performances. The Downers Grove South ensemble will compete against bands from California, South Carolina, New Jersey, Colorado, Alabama, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Florida and Georgia for a $13,000 prize.
DOWNERS GROVE — William Budds, a 25-year veteran of the Downers Grove police department, is taking over as deputy chief of operations. Budds was tapped to replace James Black, who left to serve as police chief in Crystal Lake. Budds was hired as a patrol officer in 1988 and has since served as juvenile officer, patrol sergeant, lieutenant of investigations, FBI terrorism liaison officer and deputy emergency manager, according to a statement Friday. “Deputy Chief Budds is a highly respected veteran police officer who possesses a great deal of knowledge and experience. I have no doubt that he will do a great job in serving as deputy chief of police,” Chief Robert Porter said in the statement. The appointment is effective immediately.
LETTERS
But we can work to be sure everyone is protected equally and can claim the right to work toward a safer future if they so desire. We should never be satisfied with a society that refuses the protection of law enforcement, the judicial system and other important resources to selected members of our society. Predictably, the use of firemarks died out in the early 1800s when the realization dawned that ignoring a fire in one home could mean the loss of adjoining homes as well. By promoting a culture of peace, where violence is not tolerated and all victims are protected, everyone will benefit.
Continued from Page 14
December. VAWA is the foundation of our nation’s response to domestic violence, dating violence, sexual assault and stalking. And because of VAWA, millions of victims have received lifesaving services and support. It includes everything from legal assistance for victims of domestic violence to funding for community programs dedicated to combating violence. The reason for VAWA’s rejection by Congress was the proposed expansion of the act to include same-sex couples, illegal immigrants and Native Americans living on reservations. Paradoxically, groups like the immigrant population can be the most at-risk because fear of deportation causes many crimes to go unreported. Picking and choosing whom to protect from violence sets a dangerous precedent. Domestic violence is not easily contained behind closed doors, and no one is safe when these abusive circumstances spiral out of control. As a DuPage County-based social service agency serving nearly 2,000 individuals annually who are affected by domestic violence, Family Shelter Service well understands the long-range and far-reaching effects of this scourge on society. No one can predict who or why this will affect one in three women during her lifetime.

Topinka must make state comptroller books available To the Editor: Our organization, For the Good of Illinois, filed a Freedom of Information Act request nine months ago asking Republican Illinois Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka to send us one year of the state’s checkbook. We were simply seeking an accounting of state expenditures so we could share that information with Illinois citizens through our online database. Our request for this information was rejected. The comptroller asserted that “review, redaction and arrangement of all 2011 vendor payments would take multiple

BANNER Continued from Page 11 rather than a tool for promotion. They also worried that a permanent banner would fray or fade. The one plan commission member who did support the request, meanwhile, argued that Good Samaritan is a unique village institution worthy of the special exception.

staff members, dedicated solely to this request, more than three days to complete.” Topinka’s office concluded that fulfilling the request was an “undue burden.” This conclusion is not credible, and her refusal is in fact against both the spirit and the letter of the law. Is the comptroller really going to argue that in this electronic age state government can’t produce a timely and organized checkbook? Is the comptroller’s office really that much of a mess? The fact our FOIA request is being denied by the state’s top financial officer because it’s inconvenient is inexcusable. Or is Comptroller Topinka trying to hide something? Here in Illinois, income tax rates rise as fast as 67 percent overnight and property taxes double every 10 years. You would think citizens should at least have access to

exception would set. He also noted that the hospital’s temporary banner exception is already very generous. The village’s ordinance typically limits businesses’ temporary banners to 32 square feet displayed for up to eight weeks. Permanent signs, on the other hand, are limited to 300 square feet. “This banner — we’ve all seen it — is hard to miss,” Tully said. “But whether more of more is necessarily appropriate, I don’t know.” Neiberg said officials do not anticipate revising or resubmitting their request. detailed information showing how their tax dollars are being spent. The state’s checkbook should be “public information.” If this “business as usual” goes unchallenged, governmental entities across Illinois will begin denying citizen requests. Providing such information is the essence of the Freedom of Information Act. In fact, no other Illinois governmental entity has denied our similar FOIA requests. We’re not asking Comptroller Topinka to lead the charge for openness and accountability — we are simply asking her to follow the law, as did virtually every other state and local entity. Eight months ago, we asked Democratic Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan’s office of public access counselor to render a legal opinion on Comptroller Topinka’s refusal to release one year’s information of the state’s checkbook. Initially, the attorney general opened a case saying, “further inquiry is warranted.” But after a few perfunctory phone calls and letters, we’ve had five months of silence. That is why, we filed a lawsuit last week to enforce the law: For The Good of Illinois Inc. v. Illinois Office of Comptroller Judy Baar Topinka. Sadly, our suit is the result of two of the biggest names in both political parties refusing to treat Illinois taxpayers and citizens with the respect they deserve and refusing to obey or enforce Illinois law.

HOT SPOTS
MOVED TO MELT LETHARGY Atypical athletic facilities deliver indoor exercise alternatives
J
ust the idea of winter makes many want to curl up under a blanket by the fireplace with some good wine, snacks and a classic movie — and forget about going outside, let alone, exercising. When it’s too cold for that normal neighborhood jog, or your kids can’t participate in customary youth leagues with their friends, it’s time to find an alternative. There are plenty of options in the western suburbs for families looking to change up the typical indoor treadmill and elliptical-based gym. Forget tedious, boring exercise. This winter, shake things up at these unique gyms and athletic facilities.
Bounce Sportsplex Address: 3310 Grove Ave., Berwyn Contact: 630-430-0717, bouncesportsplex.com Who needs to battle the ever-changing outdoor weather, when you can get everything you want all year round under one roof? Bounce Sportsplex provides batting cages, basketball, a fitness and lesson area, and an indoor turf field that can be used for baseball, softball, soccer or lacrosse. The complex serves youth baseball and soccer players from all over the suburbs. Whether you’re on a team, or simply want to rent out the space, the Bounce Sportsplex is an indoor facility with ample space to let loose.
Westmont Yard Address: 233 W. 63rd St., Westmont Contact: 630-737-1000, westmontyard.com There’s nothing ordinary about this indoor, multi-sport, rubber-infill, turf field that provides a variety of different indoor sports. At Westmont Yard, there’s something for everyone. Throughout the week, there are open play times for youth soccer, lacrosse, adult soccer, ultimate Frisbee, mom soccer and athletic training. Child care is available, as are adult leagues and athletic-based birthday parties. For unique exercise, Westmont Yard also offers Reball, a paintless paintball session Friday nights. Shake up your winter months with your favorite sports at Westmont Yard.
Oak Brook Aquatic Center Address: 1450 Forest Gate Road, Oak Brook Contact: 630-990-4233, obparks.org/aquatics The Oak Brook Aquatic Center might not be in Florida surrounded by palm trees, but the warm water and beachlike atmosphere will suffice during chilly winter months. The award-winning indoor aquatic center features two pools, zero-depth entry for kids, water playground, a 105-foot slide, whirlpool and six, 25-yard lap lanes. Aside from open swim, the water park offers parent/tot swim lessons, youth swim lessons, private swim instruction and advanced training. And the tide is high for adult fun — from scuba diving certification to swim lessons, fitness training and fluid running in deep water. Daily fees for the aquatic center are $10 for resident adults, $12 for nonresident adults, and $6 and $8, respectively, for both youth and ages 55 and better.

The combination makes for a never-ending bounce fest. If you have the urge to get your bounce on too, Xtreme Trampolines offers adult “Airobics” classes at 7 p.m. every Tuesday and Thursday.

Cantigny Golf Academy Address: 27W270 Mack Road, Wheaton Contact: 630-260-8236, www.cantignygolf.com The beautiful green golf course at Cantigny might be covered with frost, but that doesn’t mean you can’t practice your swing.

The five-workshop series is open to the public, and can accommodate all skill levels. The series was set to kick off with “True Fundamentals of Golf” this week, continuing with “Fix My Slice!” on Jan. 30; “How to Be More Consistent” on Feb. 13; “Gain More Yards Off the Tee” on Feb. 27; and “The Best Way to Practice” on March 20.

CHIT-CHAT
CHANCING UPON INSPIRATION Neo-Futurists stage troupe keeps it honest An ensemble member of The NeoFuturists since 2004, Downers Grove native Bilal Dardai was just named an artistic director. The writer and performer joins with Megan Mercier to lead a collective of artists who take an unusual approach to live theater. Among its offerings, the 24-year-old troupe lays claim to Chicago’s longestDardai running show, “Too Much Light Makes The Baby Go Blind,” which aims to deliver 30 plays in 60 minutes each weekend. Dardai discusses the Herculean task. Explain The Neo-Futurists’ concept. The important thing about our theater aesthetic is that we are as honest as possible with the audience. We are honest about our own lives. … When we perform things, we don’t try to suspend disbelief. We’re trying to strip all the artifice out of what we’re doing at all times. That’s the core of the aesthetic. The other things are randomness and audience interaction. We do a lot of stuff with chance — stuff we can’t recreate the same way multiple times.
Mercier
How do chance and audience interaction apply to ‘Too Much Light?’ Our theater has admission that is decided by a roll of the die. People (pay) $9 and roll (to determine the full ticket price). The audience is part of the show. We make a lot of use of talking with them. (It) introduces the element of surprise for us. (And there’s) a list of 30 titles that the audience is given as part of the playbill. We have numbers on a clothesline above the stage. When we start the show, (an audience member will) yell out a number at random. We pull that number off the clothesline. The audience decides in the moment, and we

have no idea what comes next. Part of the fun is we attempt to complete 30 plays in an hour. We don’t always finish. Brevity as the soul of wit? We’re trying to be concise. Even if there’s a complicated topic, we want to find a concise, impactful way of saying it. ‘Too Much Light’ changes every single week. Every week, two to 12 of 30 plays have to be removed — decided by the roll of the die. We get used to writing and rehearsing very quickly. Within a week,
we have to have a brand new show ready. Are the plays in a certain genre? It’s much like life. It will be comedy, tragedy … political and world events. Some of it will be very abstract. Moving pieces with no words — thought-provoking emotional response. All those things can be part of a single evening. You’re part of a cast of how many? There’s a rotating cast. Fifteen of us are in the active ensemble; five to eight of us
How early did you begin writing? I’d say I was writing short-story type things since kindergarten. I had a number of teachers who were very encouraging about reading and writing my own stuff. Did you do a lot of acting at Downers Grove North High School? I was primarily on the crew — the technical side. I did do some parts in senior year, (and became) involved in acting.
What is the coming play ‘Analog’ about? ‘Analog’ is conceived of by one of our ensemble members. A more abstract show, it kind of takes as its core the nature of fate and routine and processes, and there’s an autobiographical element. The author once had a period of his life when he (felt) compelled to transcribe a copy of the ‘Lord of the Flies.’ That forms the initial germ of the idea. — RENEE TOMELL

Veteran stars play a huge role as leaders on the court. But they weren’t always stars — they had to break into the spotlight. These players are experiencing their breakout seasons right now.

ROBERT MARA School: Downers Grove South boys Class: Senior Position: Center Impact: Mara has gone from not seeing much playing time as a junior to becoming the Mustangs’ linchpin at both ends of the floor. With solid footwork and plenty of muscle on his 6-foot-8 frame, he is most certainly a post presence on offense, though his range extends away from the basket and he can contribute as a pinpoint passer when double teamed. Through 13 games, Mara was averaging a double-double each game with 11 points and 10 rebounds per contest. “He’s made a huge transformation, as great as any kid I’ve seen from one year to the next,” South coach Jay Baum said.

School: Downers Grove South boys Class: Senior Position: Forward Impact: Downers South coach Jay Baum has a list of plaudits for McNellis, but a snapshot of what he brings to the table came when he took four charges in a game against Addison Trail earlier this season. After South wrapped up play at the Proviso West Holiday tournament, McNellis had 12 of the team’s 16 charges on the season. As of Jan. 9, he was second on the team with five rebounds per game, averaging 5.5 points per game and hitting 45 percent from three-point range. “He’s 6foot-5, he shoots well from the perimeter, he can handle the ball and he can drive to the hoop. He’s extremely versatile,” Baum said.
JAIDA GREEN School: Downers Grove North girls Class: Freshman Position: Guard Impact: On a team with six freshmen and sophomores, almost every North player has had a chance to have a breakout campaign. Not many freshmen could go from playing grade school basketball and make the immediate jump to high school varsity, but Green has been extremely successful doing just that. She’s averaging 11.4 points per game with a unique blend of size, skill and athleticism that makes her a handful for opposing defenses.

CLARK WOROBEY School: Downers Grove North boys Class: Senior Position: Guard Impact: Worobey tried out for and was cut from the freshman basketball team. Now he is a crucial bench player for Trojans coach Jim Thomas. “He took it upon himself to get better,” Thomas said. “He’s a yes sir, no sir, no (nonsense) kind of kid and he’s a great inspiration for other kids in our program. He’s a kid you can trust coming off the bench or starting a game because he’s such a grinder.”
CLAIRE HARDY BRITTANY DIETZ School: Downers Grove South girls Class: Senior Position: Guard/forward Impact: The Mustangs have been blessed with an abundance of size this season and head coach Ellen O’Brien needed a long distance shooter to balance that presence in the paint. Enter Dietz. The leading scorer for South in four games this year (including 18 in a big 5440 win over Leyden early in the year), she had played in all 16 games as of Jan. 9 and was tied for second on the team at 7.4 points per game. At that point, she had drained a team-high 11 three-pointers. “She’s an aggressive perimeter player for us and she has a lot of confidence,” South coach Ellen O’Brien said. Bill Ackerman —backerman@shawmedia.com
School: Downers Grove South girls Class: Junior Position: Guard/forward Impact: Hardy came up to South’s varsity squad as a freshman, but she is enjoying her best season for the Mustangs this year. Primarily a post player, as of Jan. 9 she was second on the team with 7.4 points per game and is one of the Mustangs’ top rebounders. “She’s a lot more confident,” South coach Ellen O’Brien said. “She’s doing a really nice job for us right now.”

Trojans learn lesson the hard way against Hinsdale South By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com
With a young team that doesn’t have a senior in the starting lineup, Stephen Bolt can make almost any situation a teaching moment. The Downers Grove North girls basketball coach got a chance to do just that as the Trojans squandered a 15-point fourthquarter lead in a 53-50 loss to Hinsdale South in the opening game of North’s M&M Winter Classic shootout Saturday. “I think we just have to endure and be better. We talk about sustaining for four quarters, and second and fourth quarters have haunted us all year,” Bolt said. “We gave up a 20-point fourth quarter, and that can’t happen if you want to win basketball games.” North (8-11 overall) was leading 4631 entering the fourth quarter before a Hinsdale South upswing coincided with the Trojans’ downturn. The fourth quarter started with a threeminute scoreless stretch. But when the ball finally started dropping, it was drop-
Next game Who: Oak Park-River Forest at Downers Grove North What: West Suburban Silver conference game When: 2:30 p.m. Saturday Where: 4436 Main St., Downers Grove ping for the Hornets much more than for the Trojans. North had one field goal in the frame: Jaida Green’s 3-pointer that put the hosts ahead 49-36 with 3:16 left. “Turnovers hurt us because we didn’t get shots out of possessions where we should have gotten shots,” Bolt said. “We weren’t as aggressive as we could have been in the fourth quarter. I think we felt comfortable, and you can’t play comfortable — you still need to play basketball.” With that in mind, Bolt and the Trojans have a week between games to work on what ails them. “In the fourth quarter, we just need to find people and get them the ball in spots where they can get shots up,” Bolt said.
