VALLEY VIEW SCHOOL DISTRICT 365U

Valley View to issue bonds for capital projects Sale to boost coffers of working cash fund which finances projects

By Laura Katauskas Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

The Valley View School District is looking to increase its working cash fund by selling $26 million in bonds.

According to Assistant Superintendent for Administrative Services Gary Grizzafi the district has more than $60 million in capital projects to be completed in the next six years, projects which are normally covered under the working cash

fund.

The district has prioritized such projects, creating a priority list totally nearly $30 million that is deemed necessary and imminent in order to ensure the safety of students and staff and are projects that require continued repair and maintenance and is no longer feasible or financially practical.

These maintenance projects run the gamut from replacing classroom doors and fire alarm panels to reroofing schools and replacing

HVAC. These priority A projects would be completed by fiscal year 2020/2021.

The remaining, lesser-priority projects would be deferred for three years.

The bond issue would not exceed $26 million and would be amortized for 20 years. A public hearing will be held on the matter June 11 and a resolution is expected to be passed July 16. The school board would then abate the bond proceeds to the working cash fund.

Lions Club hosts Baseball tourney Bolingbrook Lions Club hosts Beep Baseball tournament June 9-10 The Bolingbrook Lions Club will host its 17th Annual Beep Baseball Tournament for the visually impaired and blind on Saturday, June 9, and 10. Games are 8 a.m., 11 a.m., and 2:30 p.m. on Saturday, June 9 and the Championship game will be held at 8 a.m Sunday, June 10 on the athletic fields at the Bolingbrook Recreation & Aquatic Center (BRAC) located at 200 Lindsey Ln., Bolingbrook.

This year’s tournament brings together more than 130 athletes from eight, U.S. cities including the Chicago Comets, Indy Thunder (2016 & 2017 World Series Champs), Indy Edge, Austin Blackhawks (2015 World Series Champs), Cleveland Scrappers, Minnesota Millers, St. Louis Firing Squad and New Jersey Titans.

Because participants have varying degrees of blindness all fielders and batters are blindfolded, to keep competition fair and equal. The ball used is essentially an oversized softball and repeatedly beeps while in play.

Bases are nearly 4 feet tall foamfilled blue cylinders with interior electronics that buzz steadily when a remote switch is activated.

Each are placed 100 feet from home plate.

Beep Baseball lasts six innings and utilizes just two bases, first and third. Each team has 3 outs per inning. Each game is played on a standard grass field with six fielders. The catcher, pitcher and spotters do not wear blindfolds and are usually sighted. When a batter runs to and touches a base before the defense possesses the batted ball they score a run. It takes four strikes for a batter to be out.

“As Chairman for the 17th Annual Beep Baseball Tournament I’m excited to have eight teams from all over the country attend our tournament. The athletes are remarkable and provide us all inspiration by their courage and abilities” states Lion Jim Patula.

Most teams entered in the Bolingbrook tournament will compete in this year’s National Beep Baseball Association (NBBA) World Series in Eau Clair, Wis., July 29-August 5. The NBBA was founded in 1976 and has more than 30 teams, including one in Canada and Taiwan.

Founded in 1966, the Bolingbrook Lions Club works to impact the lives of those in need.

Each month the group funds eyeglasses, hearing aids and various requests for assistance and contribute and support important charitable events and other nonprofit organizations in the community.

COUNTY NEWS >> ROMEOVILLE

Annual Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Chapter 15 Pancake Breakfast expands to all day offerings that include cars and lunch Sunday, June 10, marks the 47th annual Experimental Aircraft Association (EAA) Chapter 15 Pancake Breakfast at Lewis University’s airport, 1 George J. Michas Dr., Romeoville. But it’s not like any other pancake breakfast of years past. This year, it’s an event with a name: Wings over Wheels Fly-in/Car Show (WOW).

WOW is the brainchild of EAA Chapter 15 member Darren Lilja. Lilja attended many events around the country with the same theme and is bringing it here to Romeoville.

“This type of event is held every year in Simsbury, Conn. I’ve volunteered there the last two years, doing everything from concessions to working the ramp. It’s been great for their airport and the community.

When I found out our former breakfast chairman moved out of state and there wasn’t anyone in line to run it, I volunteered to head up the challenge” Lilja explained.

The first thing he did was revamp the breakfast.

“Well, I proposed to the chapter to move the date from the weekend after Mother’s Day to the second weekend in June, a little warmer month. Next, I presented the idea about making it an all-day event to include a car show,” Lilja said. “There’s nothing better than wings and wheels in one place.”

In fact, there are many changes. WOW runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. instead of being a morningonly event. After 11 a.m., lunch will be offered: hotdogs, hamburgers and pulled pork are on the menu, along with juice, water and soft drinks. Another noticeable change this year, local vendors.

“I’ve reached out to the local business community to get them more involved. With all types of

takes off

people coming to the event, many don’t know about them in the area, “Lilja said. “They can promote their products or services in an ‘out of the box’ way…

at an airport.”

The event attracted some sponsors such as South Oak Dodge, Rod Baker Ford, Homer Tree and a little place called Bricks and Minifigs, an aftermarket Lego shop in Crest Hill that sells used Lego sets and pieces.

“When I walked into Ryans shop off Renwick, I knew I had to have him at the airport.

Planes, Cars and Star Wars models greeted me at his shop’s door.

It was aviation in a whole different perspective,” Lilja said. “It’s something great for the kids to enjoy as Ryan is bringing some plane and car kits to purchase and build at the airport.”

The car show portion of WOW is on the grass in front of the terminal.

“The airport manger, Chris Lawson, has embraced the idea of the chapter coming up with new ideas. Chris has been a critical part of our existence.

Presenting the idea of a car show intrigued him, as it hasn’t been

3

done in the past to this extent.

After explaining that we could expect over 350 show cars… maybe more with the extra room we may find, he’s jumped aboard,” “Lilja said. “We have this great airport that’s a hidden gem. Sure, people in aviation know about it, but the non-flyers know little about this place.

Bringing in a whole other community of people is another way to bring exposure to it.”

Admission to the public is free.

Car show entry is $20. The first 300 cars will also receive a collector hat pin and dash plaque while all entrants will get one free meal ticket. Breakfast is $8 per adult and kids 12-and-under $4. Hotdogs are $3, Hamburgers and Pulled Pork $4 with drinks at $1.

Muddy Waters wrote the songs of Chicago’s blues legacy

BY JEFF JOHNSON COURTESY OF THE CHICAGO SUNTIMES Since June 2017, Muddy Waters’ image has beamed down from a 10-story mural at 17 N. State St. in Chicago. But the king bee of Chicago blues looms even larger over the city with his outsized musical and cultural legacy.

The Mississippi Delta native, born McKinley Morganfield in 1913, followed the Great Migration to Chicago in 1943, where he found stardom with his groundbreaking electric guitar sound and classic bands. He died at age 70 in 1983, but new generations of artists often cite the influence of the six-time Grammy winner and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer, and Waters’ songs such as “I’m Your Hoochie Coochie Man” and “Rollin’ Stone” are used frequently by filmmakers and advertisers.

International tourists visit Chicago to bathe in Waters’ lore, including a visit to his longtime home at 4339 S. Lake Park. There’s not much to see, though, because the house that Tim Samuelson, Chicago’s cultural historian, has called Chicago’s most historic home has stood vacant and in a state of disrepair for many years. Plans are stalled to convert the Kenwood two-flat into a museum or other attraction.

Waters’ bluesman son Larry “Mud” Morganfield, who like his dad is a singer-songwriter-guitarist, spent time at the house, but never lived there. But he quickly rattles off the names of blues stars who did.

“James Cotton, Pinetop Perkins, Otis Spann and Little Walter all stayed there, and everyone from Paul Butterfield to Keith Richards went there,” Morganfield said. “I don’t care to have that house. What I care about is the house standing and representing Chicago as the real house of the blues. … Chicago needs to keep this man’s legacy alive.”

Morganfield admitted that being the son of a blues immortal can be a double-edged sword from a career standpoint.

“It’s both a curse and a blessing,” he said. “You have people who say, ‘He sounds like his dad, but he ain’t Muddy.’

Of course I’m not. But I have other people come up and tell me, ‘I had a lump in my throat because you remind me so much of your daddy.’ “

Others who want to walk in Waters’ footprints may visit the Chess Studios (www.bluesheaven.com/ historic-chess-studios. html) at 2120 S. Michigan, where the bluesman recorded many of his bestknown records and rock ‘n’ roll icon Chuck Berry strutted his stuff. Family members of the late Willie Dixon, who penned some of the biggest hits of Waters and fellow Chess artists such as Howlin’ Wolf, operate the studios with their nonprofit Blues Heaven Foundation.

Keith Nelson, Dixon’s grandson, conducts the tours and serves on the Blues Heaven board of directors. He said tours, which cost $10, are given hourly from noon to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday. He said between 100 and 350 people tour Chess weekly, and many ask about Waters.

“He’s always a huge part of the legacy,” Nelson said. “Muddy would be your most popular artist. He was your face.

I’m a big comic book fan, and if you had a blues comic book, Muddy would be your Superman.”

Musicians seeking to capture the Waters mojo may soon have their choice of two recording studios at Chess. “We’re planning to put older recording equipment from 1961 upstairs and modern recording equipment in a new studio downstairs,” Nelson said. “Hopefully this project will be done by the end of 2018 or early 2019.”

Carrying on the legacy of Waters and other postwar Chicago blues greats is the mission of current Chicago blues kingpin Buddy Guy, who once operated the late, lamented Checkerboard Lounge on a section of East 43rd Street renamed Muddy Waters Boulevard.

Guy moved Downtown in 1989 with his Buddy Guy’s Legends (www.buddyguy. com), now at 700 S. Wabash.

While sweet home Chicago takes

pride in its reputation as “the home of the blues,” with a lakefront festival that has drawn hundreds of thousands of music lovers yearly since 1984, the city also is a cornerstone of modern jazz.

In fact, Chicago’s jazz fest predates its blues bash by a decade.

King Oliver and Jelly Roll Morton were early stars on the jazz scene, and the immortal Louis Armstrong further popularized the New Orleans sound in Chicago in the 1920s. Later Benny Goodman and a host of fellow big-band leaders swung at ballrooms such as the elegant Trianon in the Woodlawn neighborhood and the Aragon in Uptown.

Today the Association for the Advancement of Creative Musicians (www. aacmchicago.org) guides Chicago jazz in adventurous new directions, and the Green Mill Cocktail Lounge (www. greenmilljazz.com), 4802 N. Broadway, builds on its Prohibition-era tradition.

Jeff Johnson is a Chicago-based freelance writer. DOWN-HOME DOWNSTATE: As Chicago celebrates its impressive blues history, fans throughout Illinois are building legacies of their own. Among the more active blues organizations downstate are the Illinois Central Blues Club in Springfield (www.icbluesclub.com), the Prairie Crossroads Blues Society in ChampaignUrbana (www.prairiecrossroadsblues. org) and the Decatur Blues Society (www. decaturblues.org). In addition, Murphysboro and Peoria host blues festivals annually, and for Quad Cities fans, the Mississippi Valley Blues Society (www.mvbs.org) throws one of the Midwest’s best blues bashes each summer in Davenport, Iowa. The C-U Folk & Roots Festival (folkandroots.org), which takes place in November in downtown Urbana, has several blues-oriented acts in its deep lineup. Editor’s note: The weekly Illinois Bicentennial series is brought to you by the Illinois Associated Press Media Editors and Illinois Press Association. More than 20 newspapers are creating stories about the state’s history, places and key moments in advance of the Bicentennial on Dec. 3, 2018.

COLLEGE

Women’s basketball adds three recruits Lewis University women’s basketball coach Samantha Quigley Smith announced on May 30 the addition of three players to the roster for the 2018-19 season: Lindsay Harrison, Alyssa Streeter and Kaitlyn Williams (Homer Glen, Ill./ Joliet Catholic).

The three newcomers join Stephanie Hart who signed during the fall signing period.

Harrison, a 6-0, power forward from Yorkville, Ill., averaged 12.1 points, 8.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.1 blocks and 1.9 steals per game to help lead Yorkville to a 21-7 record this past season.

She finished her prep career as the school leader in blocked shots with 147.

Harrison was named to the Ledger/Record Newspaper All-Area team, Beacon Newspaper All-Area team, was a Northern Illinois Big 12 All-Conference selection and was an IBCA Special Mention selection.

“We’re excited to see Lindsay’s development,” Quigley Smith said.

“She has the ability to play multiple positions. She’ll get to play alongside some of the best combination and post players in the nation, which will be a great way for her to continue to learn and get better every day.”

Streeter, a 5-8, guard/forward from Chicago, Ill., averaged 19.7 points, 2.9 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 2.0 steals per game for Jones Prep High School this past season.

She finished her high school career as the school’s all-time leading scorer with 1,406 points and she

also holds the single-season scoring record with 552 points.

Streeter also holds the school’s single-season and career record for three-pointers made with 70 and 151, respectively.

“The competitiveness and athleticism that Alyssa possesses is something we are so excited to see more of,” Quigley Smith said. “She has a scorer’s mentality, and that will be a huge asset as an incoming freshman.”

Williams, a 5-7, guard from Homer Glen, Ill., averaged 8.1 points per game as a freshman at Loyola (2016-17), which was second best on the team.

She shot over 30 percent (59-for196) from beyond the three-point arc and closed the year as the Ramblers top free-throw shooter, connecting on 88 percent (22-for-25) of her attempts. Williams averaged 15 points, 4.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists for head coach Nick Leonard at Joliet Catholic Academy.

“We’re excited that Kaitlyn will be suiting up for the 2018 season,” Quigley Smith said. “Her veteran attitude and experience will definitely add to our already great upper class.

“Her time playing at the Division I level along with her ability to shoot the ball from the perimeter, and with two years of college basketball playing experience in her arsenal, she will be a special addition.”

The Flyers finished the 2017-18 season with a record of 24-8, 15-3 GLVC and advanced to the NCAA Tournament for the sixth straight season.

FOREST PRESERVE DISTRICT OF DUPAGE COUNTY

Segment linking Will, DuPage preserves now open Whalon Lake, Greene Valley linked thanks to efforts of two forest preserves and quarry company A newly constructed 1.25-mile section of the DuPage River Trail that connects Whalon Lake preserve in Will County to Greene Valley Forest Preserve in DuPage County is now open.

Officials from the Will County and DuPage county forest preserve districts gathered Friday, June 1, for a ribbon cutting at the spot in Bolingbrook where the new trail segment joins the Whalon Lake loop trail. But even as the officials were gathering, bikers, walkers and runners were already utilizing the new trail segment, which begins in the northeastern corner of the preserve and travels east along Royce Road and north on Greene Road to Greene Valley in Naperville.

Andrew Andjelic of Naperville

said he rides between the two preserves often, and the new trail connection provides a much safer route.

“It used to be a huge pain to get from my house to Greene Valley and beyond,” he said. ‘I’d have to ride on the road. It was very difficult, especially with the trucks on Royce.”

Scott Oberle of Woodridge said the trail link allows him to ride farther than before.

“I love it,” he said. “I can come from Green Acres (subdivision) and have an expanded ride. It’s much safer and I can stay off the roads.”

The new link allows trail users to go north 2.3 miles through Greene Valley to the Southern DuPage Regional Trail along Hobson Road,

according to Kevin Horsfall, manager of planning for the DuPage Forest Preserve. From there, path users can head west about 3 miles to Washington Street and catch the West Branch DuPage River Trail, which runs 11 miles north through downtown Naperville to Blackwell Forest Preserve, he added.

The project was a collaboration between the two forest preserve districts and Elmhurst-Chicago Stone Company, which operates a quarry adjacent to Whalon Lake.

“This project shows that when you get different government agencies together and you have a vision, you can make it into a reality,” said Suzanne Hart, president of the Forest Preserve District of Will County’s Board of Commissioners.

Ralph Schultz, chief operating officer for the Will County Forest Preserve, said the project grew out of a 25-year partnership with Elmhurst-Chicago Stone, which con-

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

Work as a team to get in order DEAR DAVE, My husband has an old car that has become a real sticking point between us. He bought it for $2,400, and it needs about $4,000 in repairs and restoration. Together, we bring home $50,000 a year, and I feel like this car is interfering with our ability to save money and pay off $35,000 in debt. We already have two decent cars we drive to work, so what should I do about this?

STACY DEAR STACY, There are lots of guys out there who like shiny toys — especially cars. I get it, because I’m one of them. But these kinds of things are luxuries, and stuff like this should wait until the household and finances are in order. The family should always come first.

Dumping money into this while you two are struggling financially doesn’t make sense. On top of that, it’s causing problems between you two on a deeper level. I’m sure your husband isn’t a bad guy, so try sitting down with him and explaining how it makes you feel. Let him know what it’s doing to your finances and your marriage. You might even write the financial side down, so he can see exactly what

kind of shape you two are in and where the money is going.

Once you do this in a kind, but concerned, manner, it may be a real eye-opener for him. On top of that, you might consider giving him a little incentive to get on board with the idea of getting your finances in order. Suggest that once the debt is gone, and you’ve got some savings in place, there might be a little extra cash on hand to help get that car up and running.

Good luck, Stacy!

—DAVE DEAR DAVE, My fiancé and I are planning to be married in less than a year.

We’ve both been through your class at church, and the other night we started wondering if we should wait to have the wedding until we’re both completely debt-free.

Would you give us your opinion?

MICHELLE DEAR MICHELLE, Congratulations! I hope you two will have long and happy lives together.

To answer your question, I don’t think there’s a reason to wait. When two people know they really love each other, they should get married whenever they feel in their hearts

the time is right.

At this point, you shouldn’t be thinking about money as anything except an indicator of where you’re going. It doesn’t matter who got into debt or how, because everyone makes mistakes. But if you’re both serious about getting out of debt, living on less than you make, and are in agreement about how the dollars are going to be handled, then — where money is concerned — you’re ready to be married.

Many relationship experts say if a couple can agree on four important things — kids, money, religion, and how to handle the in-laws — they have a great statistical chance of a happy marriage. I believe this, too.

And make sure you meet with your pastor for some good, pre-marital counseling before the big day. With all this going for you, I think you two will be okay.

structed and paid for most of the new trail segment in exchange for getting permission to build a floodwater diversion channel in Whalon Lake preserve.

“It’s not only a small link here for the Will County Forest Preserve, it’s a big link to the rest of the trails that are available in Illinois,” said Mary Lou Wehrli, a DuPage County Forest Preserve commissioner.

Ed Stevenson, executive director of the DuPage Forest Preserve, said the project is an example of what can happen when governmental entities and private businesses

work together.

“Public-private partnerships can really accomplish beautiful things,” he said. “So congratulations, really, to everyone on a job well done, and we look forward to the next chance to work together.

Jeff Brown, president of Elmhurst-Chicago Stone, said the business was pleased to assist in creating the trail segment.

“Seeing it to completion is a great thing, and we’re happy to continue Elmhurst-Chicago Stone’s tradition of giving back in the communities in which we operate,” Brown said.

Senior Star resident wins award Senior Star at Weber Place is proud to announce that resident Myles Jacobs has received a Lifetime Achievement Award from the Illinois Bar Association’s Real Estate Law Section. Jacobs earned this prestigious award for his many years of dedication, service and guidance to the Illinois legal community.

As a practicing attorney at 86 years old, Jacobs is no stranger to life in the legal profession, one that his grade school classmates predicted decades ago. “I recently looked back at an old year book from elementary school and one of my classmates wrote in my book that I was going to be a lawyer someday,” he said.

Jacobs has been an avid reader and conversationalist on current events for most of his life, having been exposed at college to famous thinkers such as Thurgood Marshall. He credits his quest for knowledge of worldly events to the President of Dartmouth College who encouraged students to discuss great issues and did not want attorneys that were only book smart. Still on the hunt to discuss today’s relevant topics, Jacobs initiated a monthly program on current events at Senior Star at Weber Place and at the Joliet Jewish Congregation. Every month he chooses a subject applicable to what is happening in the world today for anyone who wants to join in the discussion.

A longtime resident of Joliet, Jacobs began working for Castle Law Firm in Joliet many year ago and today serves as Of Counsel for the firm where he speaks at seminars, reviews cases and coordinates their continuing education program.

Jacobs is representing the firm on May 19 at a presentation by the Illinois Bar Association, Real Estate Law Section, at Northern Illinois University in Naperville where he will be co-presenting a program with Senior Star and another attorney on senior housing alternatives and related topics.

Jacobs graduated with an A.B. from Dartmouth College in Hanover, New Hampshire and a J.D. from New York University School of Law. In addition, he has contributed to numerous publications during his career.
