Juneteenth returns June 16 to Bolingbrook

Annual event promises all-ages entertainment and education On June 16 the annual Juneteenth Community Festival is again coming to the Performing Arts Center, 375 W Briarcliff Road in Bolingbrook from noon-10 p.m. The festival, founded in 2015 by Lawrence Cooper, offers a day-

long, entertainment-filled, familyfriendly event to area residents. Juneteenth itself is the commemoration of the end of slavery in the United States. “The theme of any Juneteenth celebration is ‘coming together’ . . . moving past the things that happened during slavery,” said Cooper. “This festival is about being one community.” “Last year 2,000 people came out and everyone was singing to the music, dancing and having a

great time,” Cooper said. “It was so indicative of this great, diverse community that I live in.” Activities offer something for all ages from the kids’ area with limbo contest, sack race, face painting and T.J The Clown (to name a few) to the Senior Tent/ Cooling Station with pokeno and bid whist. Food vendors are selling everything from rib tips and wings to funnel cakes and popcorn. As Juneteenth celebrations also focus on education and self-improvement, exhibitors are providing information on a variety of topics and interests from blood drives to veterans’ health to travel to collecting unclaimed property. “We’ve had a great three years so I’m hopeful we can keep the celebration going for a long time,” said Cooper.

New retail approved for Weber Road Pizzeria, dental office to anchor new site

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

New tenants are coming to Weber Road as the village of Bolingbrook approved a final development plan for the Meijer shopping plaza, making space for

more fast-casual dining. The current 22.3 acre property near Boughton and Weber roads, will now be divided to allow 1 acre of the land to be dedicated for a new multi-tenant building including Aspen Dental, MOD pizza, and a future retail development at 215 N. Weber Road. This will be the second MOD pizza in Bolingbrook, the first, opening with strong numbers last month on Janes Avenue.

COUNTY NEWS >> SCHOOLS

Schools partner to ease path for nursing students Road from associate’s to BSN can start at JJC and finish at Lewis Joliet Junior College and Lewis University have formed a partnership enabling students with an associate degree in nursing to earn their bachelor’s from Lewis at JJC’s Main Campus. JJC President Dr. Judy Mitchell and Lewis University President Dr. David Livingston recently signed the agreement at a celebratory event hosted in the JJC Health Professions Center. Students who have completed their associate of applied science nursing degree and have at least a 2.5 GPA are eligible. JJC alumni and nursing students will be able to enroll in the program at a discounted rate. “Creating new pathways to connect students to high-demand careers in our region is essential,” Dr. Mitchell said. “This collaboration is an excellent example of the positive impact we can have when we work together to give our residents the high-quality education they deserve. We are excited to partner with Lewis as we continue to explore new opportunities in this arena for our students.” “We know that JJC offers an opportunity for many women and men to get into the nursing pro-

fession. And then after they’re in it for a while this partnership allows them the opportunity to move forward,” said Lewis University President Dr. David Livingston. JJC’s Dean of Nursing, Health, and Public Service Dr. Amy Gray said the partnership with Lewis addresses an acute shortage of nurses in the U.S. Given the aging population and that nurses are retiring at a rapid rate, Gray said there are not enough graduates to fill the void. “While there are approximately three million nurses in the U.S., it is expected that the country will need at least one million more by 2022 to be able to handle the health care demands,” she said. Gray said many Chicago hospitals are now requiring a BSN for employment, a trend that is becoming the industry standard. “So while colleges are struggling to keep up with this demand and being forced to turn away qualified applicants with a passion for nursing, JJC and Lewis University have answered the call,” said Gray. “This partnership between Lewis and JJC is a wonderful comple-

ment to the amazing reputations that both schools carry with their respective nursing programs,” said Misti Ludwig, director of RNBSN and healthcare leadership programs at Lewis University. “It is a natural progression for the JJC nursing students to matriculate from the rigorous courses at JJC and complement them with the excellence and rigor that the Lewis University nursing program brings to the table.” Dr. Randall Fletcher, JJC’s vice president of academic affairs, said offering seamless transfer pathways for students is always a primary focus of the college. “This partnership with Lewis University will provide both opportunity and excellence in nursing education for students in the area,” he said. “We have worked with many students coming from Joliet Junior College and we are known to you and you are known to us,” said Dr. Peggy Rice, dean of Lewis University’s College of Nursing and Health Professions. “Now to make it a formal partnership I think is a very wonderful thing.” Nursing students are encouraged to apply for admission to Lewis in their first semester at JJC in order to receive appropriate advising and maximize their time with the college. More information about the BSN partnership program, including how to enroll, can be found at the Lewis University website.

noting the retail world is changing dramatically as more stores keep closing. Aspen Dental and MOD pizza are seen as a means to increase traffic to existing stores and to develop future development. The developer said the third spot would be focused on finding retail. “The busy retailers are the food retailers and are an active segment in a small shop,” said the developer. “Studies show fast-ca-

sual are driving centers. We want to fill space with retail the community wants. We are being very aggressive; enough to move fast. Vacancy is not in our portfolio.” Claar noted that some would question the decision to rebuild when there are empty stores. Unfortunately he said, stores like the vacant Borders are just too big at 20,0000 square foot;when smaller retailers are trying to come in, such larger spaces just will not work.

GUEST COLUMN

Nauvoo home to growth of Mormon religion BY EMMA BAKER OF THE HANCOCK COUNTY JOURNALPILOT For the Mormons, Quincy appeared to be a beacon of hope and safety during tumultuous times. Members of the Mormon faith began arriving in Hancock County about 1839 looking for security after having encountered hostility elsewhere, according to Thomas Gregg, a Hancock County settler who wrote about the Mormon faith in his 1880 book “History of Hancock County, Illinois.” But in Quincy they were welcomed, which contributed to the faithful choosing Hancock County as a place to settle. They established their own town, Nauvoo, north of Quincy. Gregg’s book describes early Nauvoo, before the building of the Mormon Temple, as a picturesque site on the east side of the Mississippi River, about 10 miles north of Keokuk, Iowa. “The origin, rapid development and prosperity of this religious sect are the most remarkable and instructive historical events of the present century,” Gregg wrote about the Mormons in Nauvoo. Illinois was a new home where members settled after being driven out of New York, Ohio and Missouri. Unfortunately, the Mormon followers would eventually be driven out of Illinois, too. THE FOUNDING OF A FAITH The founder of the religion, Vermont native Joseph Smith, was living in New York in 1820 when, at age 14, he read a passage in the New Testament and went to the woods to pray. It is there where Smith said God and Jesus Christ appeared to him, according to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints website. This vision is known now to Mormons as the “First Vision.” “I saw a pillar of light exactly over my head,” Smith wrote, “above the brightness of the sun, which descended gradually until it fell upon me.” That experience inspired him to found Mormonism. Church members believe Smith was led in 1823 to a hill in Palmyra, New York, where he received, from an angel known as Moroni, an ancient record, engraved on gold plates, that gave the history of the people who lived on the American continent during

the time of Christ, according to the Mormon website. He used those to write the “Book of Mormon: Another Testament of Jesus Christ.” Smith - along with Oliver Cowdery, Martin Harris and David Whitmer - then began spreading the word of the book and created a new religion. Cowdery, Harris and Whitmer were known as the “Three Witnesses” and were the only other people to see the plates. Smith and a few followers made their way to Ohio, where the religion increased in numbers but persecution continued, so they traveled to Missouri. Church members began to flee from Liberty, Mo., after Smith and other Mormon leaders were arrested in November 1838 on charges of murder, treason, burglary, arson, larceny and theft, according to “Utopian Communities of Illinois” by Randall Soland. By January 1839, Mormon apostle Brigham Young fled with several hundred followers to Quincy. Thousands more followed. “Eventually, a total of 8,000 Mormons came to Quincy, where the citizens offered their sympathy and assistance by opening up their homes … giving the Mormons food, clothing and shelter,” Soland wrote. PLANTING ROOTS Smith joined his family in Quincy, but soon began searching for a new home. Mormon leaders purchased several hundred acres of land in Commerce, now known as Nauvoo, and began building before the church members joined. By June 1840, there were nearly 3,000 people in Nauvoo. “Between 1837 and 1846, Mormon missionaries in Great Britain baptized almost 18,000 British citizens from England, Scotland and Wales, of whom 4,733 immigrated to Nauvoo,” Soland wrote. Within eight years of settling in Nauvoo, the number of residents had grown to nearly 12,000. About $1 million was raised for construction on a temple, which started in 1841 and completed in 1846. New laws were incorporated to help the church prosper, such as tithing, which started in 1838. “Under the law of tithing, 10 percent of the member’s possessions and property at the time of baptism, as well as 10 percent of their annual income, was to

be given to the church,” Soland wrote. The Bill of Incorporation empowered the mayor and aldermen of Nauvoo City Council to pass any law they chose, including the court of Nauvoo authority to grant writs of habeas corpus (a court order that allows a prisoner to be released from detention if a judge determines there to be a lack of sufficient cause or evidence). This law applied to Smith, regardless of jurisdiction. TROUBLES RE-EMERGE Not everyone was happy with the new faith, though. In 1844, a group of dissidents formed an opposition group to the Mormons, and started a newspaper. “The first and only edition of the Nauvoo Expositor was printed on June 7, 1844,” Soland wrote. “It contained scandalous and derogatory allegations about the ‘adulteress’ lives of Smith and other Mormon leaders. Smith and the city council declared the newspaper libelous and a public nuisance and ordered the town marshal to destroy the press.” The group against the Mormons filed charges in Carthage against Smith, saying he incited a riot. But due to the city’s ability to issue writs of habeas corpus, Smith was arrested, quickly tried and acquitted by the Nauvoo court. Anti-Mormons in Illinois, Iowa and Missouri were outraged, according to Soland’s book. Smith contacted Gov. Thomas Ford for help. “Ford instead declared the destruction of the Expositor illegal and demanded that the Smith brothers (Joseph and Hyrum) come to Carthage for retrial,” he wrote. Smith was arraigned in Carthage, where bail was set high but was quickly paid. Smith was arrested once more for treason, “on the grounds that Smith had wrongly declared martial law in Nauvoo during the destruction of the presses of the Expositor.” And it was while being held in the Carthage Jail with his brother, Hyrum, that Smith was killed on June 27, 1844. According to Soland, “Just after 5 o’clock that evening, a group of men approached the jail. The men on guard fired their guns in the air. One group of attackers stormed up the stairs and fired their guns into the room where Joseph and Hyrum were staying.”

Pizzeria goes green, eliminates foam packaging “I want to be environmentally responsible as a business. Hopefully we’re respected . . . “ Michael’s Pizza is in their 35th year in business and 20th year at their current location (near Weber and Romeo roads). Michael’s has always strived for the best quality, whether that means cooking with the best ingredients, offering name brand condiments, or using the best packaging options. About two years ago, they made a major upgrade in the packaging department that’s not just good for the customer, but also good for the planet: They went green. “Michaels Pizza has always tried to use quality packaging,” explains Mike Dillon, owner and namesake of Michael’s Pizza, “but we were using Styrofoam

like everybody else. Styrofoam is cheap, but it doesn’t go anywhere. Once it’s manufactured, it’s on the earth to stay.” What he found instead was something made from the parts of sugar cane that aren’t used for anything else. The product is called a fiber container. It’s not only environmentally friendly, but also sturdier and compostable. Additionally, it maintains the quality of the food better during delivery. As with any upgrade, there is a price to pay. The cost difference between fiber and Styrofoam ranges from 2 cents to 12 cents per unit, depending on the container in question. Given the financial sacrifice in

going green, why does Mike do it? “That’s our thing,” he replies. “We strive for the best quality we can deliver, from food to packaging. But the other thing is, I want to be environmentally responsible as a business. Hopefully we’re respected for using green and earth-friendly products. Everything we have here, everything we do, is recyclable, compostable, or reusable.” “Michael’s Pizza has been a great business partner for many years,” praised Mayor John Noak. “We commend them for their efforts in going green and we look forward to their continued success in Romeoville.” So what’s next for Mike? As Michael’s Pizza looks ahead, they will continue to be more environmentally friendly by adding LED lights and exploring new supplies.

Preserve police raise funds for Special Olympics Forest Preserve police raised more than $3,000 during the recent Cop on a Rooftop fundraising event Forest Preserve police raised more than $3,000 during the recent Cop on a Rooftop fundraising event, which benefits Special Olympics. Officer Steve Kirsch said through his volunteer work with the organization, he has seen firsthand how Special Olympics benefits participants. “Seeing the joy on the athletes’ faces is my main reason for participating in Special Olympics,” he said. “The funds raised by the Dunkin’ Donuts Cop on a Rooftop go to pay for these events.” Kirsch added that the fundraiser shows police in a positive light and it is a bonding experience for the department. Officer Darrell Mayle also participated in the Cop on a Rooftop event. He said he started participating in torch run fundraising events organized by Special Olympics because he loves running, but then he got to know the special needs athletes, and he saw how

much they enjoy the games and winning medals. “The games give them purpose and provide a social outlet,” he said. “And through our fundraising and the generosity of the community, we are able to help make it affordable for these families who need it.” Also participating in the Cop on a Rooftop event from the police department were: Chief Tracy Chapman, Sgt. Dan Olszewski; Officers Rick Lewandowski, Matt Yates, Vinnie Cimino, Dave Starcevich and Brad Veerman; office manager Nicole Veerman; and Community Service Officer Jennifer Hemmeger. Other participants were Kirsch’s wife, Chris, and daughter, Rikki; and Mayle’s daughter, Emily. Chapman said she thinks it’s important for her department to support this worthwhile cause because it celebrates sports and inclusion. “As representatives of the For-

DEFENSIVE

STAND After switiching positions this season, DGN’s Marconi elevates defense; earns Player of the Year

BY MATT LE CREN For the Bugle www.buglenewspapers.com

Downers Grove North senior Francesca Marconi played her final soccer season in a new position with a wounded knee and a fierce determination to build on the unrivaled success her team enjoyed in 2017. Mission accomplished. Switching from outside back to center back, Marconi cemented her legacy as one of the best defenders in school history. She was the anchor of the back line that recorded 12 shutouts, one fewer than last year’s team which advanced to the state semifinals and earned the school’s first soccer state trophy. On a team that struggled to score goals at times, Marconi’s toughness, mental fortitude and athleticism was the linchpin of North’s continued suc-

cess. Despite having a target on their backs, the Trojans (14-7-4) won their second consecutive sectional championship before losing to Andrew 2-1 in the supersectional. It was quite a feat for a program that had won just one regional title prior to 2017. For her efforts, Marconi has been named the Voyager Media Girls Soccer Player of the Year. “She’s a tough defender,” Downers North sophomore forward Alexis Parker said. “She won’t stop. “She just goes and goes and I think that’s great for our team because she has such a high work ethic.” Parker and her teammates know exactly how tough Marconi is. They have to go against her in practice every day. “She gives me a run for my SEE ALL-AREA PAGE 8

money every time,” Parker said. “But it only makes me better.” Senior midfielder Abby Swanson, who was last year’s Voyager Player of the Year, has played with Marconi since they were 8. They played on different club teams for a while but Swanson, a Loyola recruit, prefers to be on the same side. “You want her on your own team,” Swanson said. “You don’t want to play against her. “We always talk about how we’re each other’s favorite girls to play with because we’ll always play for each other. The whole game we’ll just look at each other and we’re instantly connected and playing with full heart every time.” Marconi, who comes from a long line of star athletes, gave her heart and soul to the Trojans, particularly this year, which will be her final competitive season. Marconi was set to sign with Colorado-Colorado Springs but underwent surgery for a torn meniscus in October, which led her to forego a college soccer career. Instead, the aspiring nurse will attend South Alabama, where she will she be reunited with her sister Gianna, a former All-State forward for North who will finish her nursing studies after playing soccer at Colorado State. “(The decision) was tough,” Marconi said. “It definitely has (made this year more special) especially coming off last year, trying to work up to that or even better this year. “After my surgery, my knee has not been 100 percent, so it’s been a lot of wear and tear on my body. Sometimes I’m so exhausted.” But Marconi never exhausted her desire to compete and win and as a result, the Trojans didn’t, either. She was a rock in the mid-

THURSDAY, JUNE 14, 2018 | BUGLENEWSPAPERS.COM dle of the back line, playing every game despite some discomfort. “I didn’t really think about it because of the mental stuff but every now and then it would hurt,” Marconi said. “(Downers North coach Brian) Papa was really good about it. If I needed a rest he’d take me out.” Few players know what Marconi went through better than Swanson, who missed her freshman year with a torn ACL but recovered to become a two-time All-Stater. “That’s tough,” Swanson said. “I’ve been there with the knee stuff. “I know a huge part of it is mental, so the fact that she can push it back and keep playing is awesome. (Marconi) just focused on getting better and getting back out there and for the team. I think that shows a lot about her.” Indeed, Marconi has always had a team-first attitude. The four-year starter plays a position that doesn’t lend itself to gaudy statistics (though she had two goals and an assist this season) or press coverage. “I started as a midfielder in park district until eighth grade,” Marconi said. “Then my coach put me on defense because he saw that I was a bigger body and stronger in the back than I was up top. I had more of a defensive mind and my technique was better in back.” Marconi’s physical talent can be attributed to her genes, though her defensive role is an anomaly within her family. She is the granddaughter of Joe Marconi, who was a fullback on the Chicago Bears’ 1963 NFL championship team. Marconi’s aunt, Janelle Marconi, was a track and field star at Downers North who won the state title in the discus in 1986 and now coaches track at

Hinsdale Central. Then came her sister, Gianna, who was a star forward for the Trojans. So Marconi had a name to live up to when she started at North. “It’s really just an awesome opportunity overall,” Marconi said. “Bears fans at North know about (her grandfather). “I’ve got my aunts and uncles who have left a legacy and then Gianna being all-state and going D-1 in college has left a huge legacy. To walk into that, it was big footsteps to fill so I’ve just been working hard all four years and trying to be the soccer player she was and just do my best.” Marconi is one of six children. She has three brothers, two of whom expect to be athletes at North in the future, and a sister, Mia, who is a junior forward for the Trojans. But she has felt no pressure to excel. “My parents (Renee and Jonathan) have raised us to know that they don’t expect us to be like any of our other siblings. They know we’re individually different and good in our own things. Coming in I knew we had the Marconi reputation, but I just did what I could.” What she did was considerable and her final season went by fast, though she was smart enough to relish every moment. “This is the last time I will be able to wear a jersey and represent a school, so (I wanted to) take it all in,” Marconi said. “Just play with all your heart and don’t walk off the field thinking you could have done more.” The rest of the 2018 All-Area soccer team is: OLIVIA BULL DOWNERS GROVE NORTH Senior defender was all-conference and all-sectional. Threeyear starter tallied two goals and team-high 10 assists.

ABBY CASMERE BENET Junior forward scored 11 goals and nine assists for the Redwings, who won their first sectional title since 2012.

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

Teach them to save while they’re young Sooner he learns some basic money management principles, sooner he’ll be able to handle his finances DEAR DAVE, My wife and I want to begin teaching our son how make a budget and live on one. He’s 16, and he has a part-time job and a hand-me-down car. Is this a realistic idea? MIKE DEAR MIKE, Your son is at a great point in life to learn how to make money behave. Even in his situation, when he’s still living at home, there are plenty of things he can include in a budget. There’s gas for his car, along with maintenance and insurance. He’ll need to save a little money — maybe even for college — and I’m sure he’ll want some spending cash, too. Sit down, and teach him how to make a written budget by figuring out the upcoming month’s income and expenses ahead of time. Also, make sure he knows how to properly balance and reconcile his bank account. It’s still your responsibility to

provide him with the basic necessities at this point. But I love your willingness to teach your son how to handle money intelligently. The sooner he learns some basic money management principles, the sooner he’ll be able to handle his finances responsibly in the real world! —DAVE DEAR DAVE, I work long hours, and I make pretty good money. The problem is the money from my paychecks always seems to disappear before the end of the month. I know part of the problem is grabbing quick meals between extra shifts, and eating out a lot after work, because I’m usually too tired to cook when I get home. How can someone who has very little free time start gaining control of their finances? SHEILA

DEAR SHEILA, No matter how little free time you think you have, or how tired you are, you must make time do a written budget every month. This is essential. Making a budget for the month ahead isn’t a lot of hard work, and it really doesn’t take long. When you give every dollar a name before the month begins, you’re taking control of your money instead of allowing a lack of it to control you. Start with the income you know is predictable. If that isn’t possible, look back over the last few

months and find the minimum amount you brought home during a month over that period of time. This will be the basis for your budget. Once you’ve established a baseline income, you can write down and prioritize bills and other expenses. Just remember, restaurants are not a priority! When you make a prioritized spending plan, and start telling your money what to do ahead of time, you’ll have the ability to do what’s important with what you’ve earned! —DAVE
