Joliet Library hosts Family Stargazing Night Families enjoyed a night of learning more about outer space and our solar system in a Friday night activity BY RYAN OSTRY Bugle Staff @RyanOstry_BR18 rostry@buglenewspapers.com
Joliet Library served as the local Planetarium for just one evening, as it hosted a Family Stargazing Night for viewers. Activities ranged from a telescope being brought over from Adler Planetarium, starry night crafts being displayed and used by children, robots that kids were able to learn how to move moon rocks, a documentary about stargazing, space books and a solar system walk. “The solar system walk is pretty cool because people can see the relative distance between the planets and learn facts about each of the planets as they go back,” said Laura Yanchick, Manager of Youth Services. “Looking for constellations throughout the building, making their own constellations and learning things about space they previously didn’t know is great as
well.” Family Stargazing Night was the first time ever the library hosted an event such as this, but events at the Joliet Library are constant according to Yanchick. A sheet was given to each person in attendance Friday night, with a plethora of Constellations and telescope numbers that said when each viewer was allowed to step outside to see through the telescope. Antila, Ara, Aries, Chamaelon, Circinus, Corona-Australis, Corona-Borealis, Corvus, Crater, Delphinus, Dorado, Equuleus, Horologium, Lacerta, Libra, Microscopium, Musca, Norma, Orion’s Belt, Pyxis, Sagitta, Telescopium, Ursa-Minor, Vela and Volans were all displayed during the search, as well as in the documentary and in the wide variety of books. To Yanchick, she said she is always learning for experts and those with years of knowledge within each activity to come and help the community and other participants gain better knowledge and enjoy activities at the library. “We know a little bit about a lot of things is something I like to say,” Yanchick said. “We love finding experts such as the visitor from Adler Planetarium,
“Looking for constellations throughout the building, making their own constellations and learning things about space they previously didn’t know is great as well.” - LAURA YANCHICK, MANAGER OF YOUTH SERVICES
we’re going to do a field trip this summer that’s a virtual field trip with the Shed Aquarium where they will web cam into us and take us through the shark exhibit and we do family field trips through Joliet all the time. For someone that deals with youth services and that provides a lot of entertainment especially for kids, she said that she was pretty surprised and enjoyed seeing the many faces Friday night, including adults that showed up and took a large interest in the first time activity. “We are so excited seeing everyone, but we’re really excited seeing adults here that have come without children, as well as people with children,” Yanchick said. “For people to really find an all ages thing is something we really love, and we’re excited to see the science, art and experience everything with the robots.”

Man used different methods to try and get in homes BY BRIAN STANLEY Bugle Staff Bugle Newspapers bstanley@buglenewspapers.com
SHOREWOOD - Police are searching for a man who tried scamming and forcing his way into homes March 16. The incidents occurred between 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. in the 500 block of Helene Street and the 900 block of Caprice Drive. Police Chief Aaron Klima said it appears the same suspect - a white or Hispanic man in his early 30s - is responsible for the attempted burglaries. He was driving a full-sized pickup truck - possibly a black or dark gray Chevrolet. “Different methods of entry were used at the residences, including an attempted ruse entry of an occupied residence, forced entry into a non-occupied residence and a ruse entry into an occupied residence,” Klima said. Initial investigation shows the homes were selected at random. “We have asked our residents

Shorewood police crack down on drunk drivers BY BRIAN STANLEY Bugle Staff Bugle Newspapers bstanley@buglenewspapers.com
Police were depending on more than luck to keep Shorewood roads safe from drunk drivers during St. Patrick’s Day weekend. Officers were assigned to a special enforcement detail that targeted drivers who were operating unsafe vehicles, driving with a suspended license, not wearing seat belts, transporting open liquor or driving under the influence of drugs or alcohol. “The message is simple and clear — we have zero tolerance for drunk drivers in Shorewood,” Deputy Chief Eric Allen said. Alcohol and drug impairment remain a significant factor in more than 40 percent of all fatal crashes in Illinois and 29 percent nationwide. Drugs account for 16 percent of all traffic crashes na-
tionwide. The roadside safety checks are funded by federal traffic safety funds through the Illinois Department of Transportation’s Division of Traffic Safety. Sgt. Nick Forster said police set up Saturday night near routes 52 and 59 and inspected 233 vehicles between 9 p.m. and 12 a.m. “We had no DUI arrests, but that really isn’t a bad result,” Forster said. “We did warn drivers about some minor violations such as lights out and issued tickets when we found marijuana in vehicles and unbuckled children.” Based on the number of available officers, every “X” number of cars that pass the checkpoint was diverted through the cones for an inspection. “It’s whatever that number will be so that it is completely random and we’re not stopping specific vehicles,” Allen noted. “Drivers
are flagged into the zone where an officer will walk around their vehicle and ask to see their license and proof of insurance.” Allen said police are required to assume the license and insurance card are valid unless there is probable cause for further investigation. “If they aren’t buckled up, have signs of impairment or an equipment violation like a headlight out or a tail light out, the officer has to accept the license and insurance at face value,” Allen said. “An overwhelming majority of the vehicles that are stopped for inspection will be finished in less than two minutes.” Allen said few drivers have complained during previous traffic checkpoints. “It’s almost surprising, but a lot of drivers tell us they appreciSEE DRUNK PAGE 7
to report any and all suspicious people or vehicles in their neighborhoods,” Klima said. Police also asked residents to review home video surveillance from March 16 and be aware of ordinances regarding solicitors. Upon being asked, anyone soliciting in Shorewood should be
able to produce documentation that includes the business name and dates they are authorized to do so. “With recent storms in the area, we are seeing an influx of businesses attempting to solicit storm damage repairs,” Klima said.

SOUTH BOYS RALLY FOR THE WIN BY RANDY WHALEN For the Bugle www.buglenewspapers.com
It was quite a couple of days for Kendrick Williams. On Saturday, March 16, the Joliet Central forward announced on Twitter that he had committed to play college basketball at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. The next day, Sunday, May 17, he went out and earned MVP honors at the Voyager Media Boys Basketball All-Star Shootout at the University of St. Francis in Joliet. He scored 20 points and grabbed nine rebounds as the South squad rallied for an exciting 136-133 victory over the North team. Williams is the second straight Joliet Central player to win MVP honors at the all-star event, which started in 2009. Ryan Saunders, who played at Kaskaskia College in downstate Centralia this season, won it last year. “Not getting all-conference showed me that had to do some things with my game,” Williams said of not making the All-Southwest Prairie Conference team. “So
I did. I’m happy that I just signed at Wisconsin-Eau Claire.” He was also happy to help the Steelmen to an 18-win season and a regional final appearance this season. “We had to rebuild our chemistry this season after we had some injuries around Christmas,” Williams said of the Steelmen. “But I’m happy with the results this season.” He was happy with the results in the all-star game too. Especially the end. The North team was trying to rally back but Williams had the last of his many slams with 36 seconds to play to give the South a 136130 lead. Downers Grove South’s Justin Eagins (16 points), who hit four 3-pointers in the second half, made a final one with 21 seconds left to cut the lead to three, but that held up for the final score as the South team was able to run out all but the final second or so of the game. The end of the game was much different than the start. PHOTOS BY MATT EVANS/FOR THE BUGLE

PREP SHOOTOUT ALL-STAR GAME
North holds off South in girls game BY RANDY WHALEN For the Bugle www.buglenewspapers.com
Anyone that walked in right after tip-off of Voyager Media Girls Basketball All-Star Shootout would have thought there was a lot of scoring in the opening moments since the scoreboard read 18-18. But it was all by design. The 18-18 score to start the game was in honor of Beth Dunlap. The Downers Grove North junior was fatally struck by a car on Feb. 19. She wore No. 18 as a setter on the Trojans volleyball team, helped them to a state runner-up finish last fall and was a member of the Voyager Media All-Area volleyball team. Throughout the end of the basketball season, Dunlap had been honored, so Voyager Media Publications decided to open the scoring at 18-18 in her memory. The 18-18 start meant a higher scoring total than usual as the North team, which included the
Downers Grove North players, pulled away for a 91-81 victory at the Voyager Media Prep Shootout All-Star game on Sunday, March 17 at the University of St. Francis in Joliet. Niles West’s Sam Galanopoulos scored a game-high 20 points to lead the North squad to victory, 15 coming in the second half. “The first half, I was just feeling everything out.” She said. “Then we got down by one and they got it to three and I was not losing that game. I didn’t care what it takes, so I turned it on. It is all fun and games until it gets real and then it is do whatever it takes to win the game.” Galanopoulos, who will be featured next week as the 2019 Girls Basketball Player of the Year, was also named the Most Valuable Player of the Shootout. Galanopoulos was on the bench in the final minutes. She was informed that she was just a few points away from tying Plainfield East’s Gabby Williams
All-Star game record with for most points with 24, set in 2013. Galanopoulos, however, choose not to go back in the game. Galanopoulos was not the only one that lit up the scoreboard. Maine South’s Nicole Scales helped tip those in the North’s favor with 18 points, four rebounds, and three steals. “Sam and I have been teammates forever (in AAU), so getting to play with each other on the high school level is fun,” Scales said. “There are a lot of players from schools we never play, even in tournaments, so it is nice to see their styles of play and how they work.” Jalyn Harris from Downers Grove North also contributed big time as she sank a trio of 3-pointers in scoring 11 the first half. She finished with 13 points and nine rebounds. “It was really fun to play with a different group of girls,” Harris said. “It was a lot of fun and it was competitive — it was a nice Sunday. Caya Apostolou from Maine East tallied nine points, while Elisha Dunlap from Bolingbrook tallied six and Kaeli Ford from Lockport added five points. Jennifer Krizka finished with seven points and five rebounds for the South team. But the multiathlete at Joliet Catholic Academy has made contributions not only in sports but off the field too. With that in mind, she was awarded the Jeremy Izzo Character Award, which is named after the former JCA boys basketball coach, who passed away in 2010. “It’s a great honor to receive the award,” Krizka said. “It’s great to keep and carry on that tradition that Jeremy Izzo started at JCA. This is what they preach at JCA, to be a character person.” The basketball game was also the final one for Krizka, who is a softball standout for the Angels.
PHOTOS BY MATT EVANS/FOR THE BUGLE
JCA’s Jennifer Krizka was the winner of the 2019 Jeremy Izzo Character Award at the Voyager Media Prep Shootout. She will continue to play softball at Oakland University in Michigan. “When I was a freshman I came here to watch some of the senior’s play in this all-star game,” Krizka said. “I imagined myself playing in this game. So it was just a great experience to play with all these different players out here.” The game was played with 20-minute halves and a running clock except in the last two min-
utes of the half. Ahead 27-25 the North team went on an 8-0 run and that built to a 30-15 spurt for a 57-40 lead heading into the final minute of the half. It was 57-45 at halftime. Trailing 65-55 five minutes into the second half, the South squad had a 13-2 stretch to take its first lead ay 68-67 on a layup by Joliet SEE GIRLS PAGE 7

Handling finances before, and after, the wedding DEAR DAVE, I’m getting married this summer and I’m on Baby Step 4 of your plan. My fiancé is getting on board with your advice, too, and she’s currently in the process of paying down her student loan debt. Would it be a good idea to go ahead and put most of my emergency fund savings toward helping pay off her debt now?

At that point, you two are joined together GIRLS FROM PAGE 6 Central’s Shawnton Brown. “I loved the comeback there,” Brown said. “I had fun and it was fun to play with all the different girls from the different schools.

In the first 3:10 of the game the North team was on fire, jumping out to an 18-0 lead. Williams finally put the South team on the board on a layup with 20:40 left in first half. “It was like we had to step up,” Williams said. “We had to start playing and take off.” The South team did just that, closing back within 26-16 with just under 18 minutes to play in the first half. Its deficit remained at double digits until just over eight minutes to play in the half. Jake Karli (8 points) from Lockport scored on back-to-back baskets to rally the South team all the way back for leads of 59-58 and 61-60. The score was tied 71-71 at halftime.

Make sure that “we” have an emergency fund of at least $1,000 in the bank at that point. Then, if you’re both in agreement on the issue, you can throw the rest of what you previously had in your emergency fund at the debt.

Congratulations, and may God bless your lives together! —DAVE DEAR DAVE, My husband and I are 24, we’re debt-free, and we’re just a few weeks of saving away from having a fully-funded emergency fund. Each of us has a 401(k) plan at work, and right now we’re concentrating on life insurance purchases. You always recommend term insurance, but how long should the coverage last? JENNY DEAR JENNY, Congratulations on being super smart with your money! It sounds like you two are starting out on the right foot. Generally, I recommend 15- or 20-year level term policies — unless you have children. Since you didn’t mention any kids, I can only
assume they’re not in the picture at this point. However, if you two decide to grow your family in the future, I’d advise converting those to 30-year term policies. You’ll want the insurance there to protect everyone in the family, until the kids are grown and out on their own. In the years after, continued saving and wealth building will lead you to a point where you’re both self-insured. You two have done an excellent job with your finances. Keep up the good work! —DAVE
title game. In the regular season, they had a couple of close losses to Minooka in Southwest Praire games. But in the all-star game, Brown (17 points, 7 rebounds) and Minooka guard Cierra Bachmann (16 points, 9 rebounds) were quite the duo. “It was fun to play with Cierra,” Brown said. “Her basketball IQ is
off the charts. She drew up a play for us and we executed it. “Going 24-7 and setting records at Joliet Central was an accomplishment. It was a blueprint for our young girls to go out and accomplish more.” The South team’s last lead was 73-72 on a 3-pointer by Brown’s Joliet Central teammate, Anette
Hymon (6 points). But Galanopoulos earned her MVP honor by scoring the first five points in a 9-0 run that gave the Noth the lead for good at 81-73 with 3:33 to play. Shannon Smith, from Plainfield South with six points, and Savanah Johnson, from Minooka with four points, also scored multiple baskets for the South team,

The South took off with an 11-2 burst to start the second half and never trailed again. There were ties at 98-98 and 100100. Ahead 114-113, Lockport’s Tommy Halatek (5 points) scored on a layup and Romeoville’s Mike Salter (6 points, 9 rebounds) scored on a layup with exactly seven minutes to play in the game to give the South some breathing room. It never got closer the three the rest of the way. Ikenna Okeke, from Romeoville, finished with a game-high 21 points for the South squad. He transferred from Bolingbrook before the start of the season. “In my senior year, team-wise we didn’t finish the way we wanted to,” Okeke said of the Spartans record. “But I was happy with how I played myself in my senior year.” He was also happy to go up
against his former teammates at Bolingbrook. “It was fun to play them,” Okeke said. “Those are my guys.” Also contributing to the South win was Plainfield East’s Yamani Shareff (11 points), Joliet Central’s Keaton Gregory (10 points), Plainfield South’s Diamond Presniakovas (10 points), Plainfield South’s Levert Shields (8 points), Plainfield East’s Noah Woulard (7 points), and Joliet West’s Jamonte Benton (6 points). “It was a great time being out here with my old teammates and everyone else,” said Presniakovas, who almost missed the game because of an injury. “I just wanted to play with my boys and wear my jersey one more time.” Kendrick Tchoua (18 points, 9 rebounds) from Benet Academy led the North team, while Downers
Grove South’s Wesley Hooker was right behind with 17 points. “It was fun playing with guys from other schools,” Hooker said. “We were trying to win, but it was still fun. I like to get above the rim and show off a little, but towards the end, you play defense more and try and win.” A bevy of Bolingbrook guys were in double figures. They were Kameron Leonard (17 points, 7 rebounds), Tyler Cochran (10 points), and Ty McMurrin (10 points, 8 rebounds). Jordan Myrick (7 points), Anthony Thompson (5 points), and Isiah Burd (4 points) also contributed for the Raiders, who won their third sectional title in the past five years this season. Westmont had a pair of all-stars in Matt O’Leary (8 points) and Caden Anderson (6 points).

COMMUNITY
Joliet Area Community Hospice offers several complementary therapies in patient care JOLIET, IL — Considered the model for quality compassionate care for people facing end of life, hospice provides expert medical care, pain management, and emotional and spiritual support expressly tailored to each patient’s individual needs and wishes. Hospice can improve a person’s quality of life when curative treatments and technology are no longer effective or desired. Like various sectors of the medical community, Joliet Area Community Hospice (JACH) includes complementary therapies in patient care plans and with family bereavement. Currently music, art, pet, massage, Reiki and aroma therapies are offered to our patients. These non-invasive therapies promote comfort and well-being and complement the medical and social support they already receive from their interdisciplinary care teams. Complementary therapies promote relaxation and rest, minimize anxiety and stress, release tension, reduce pain, helps with agitation and improve functional status and quality of life. Aromatherapy has minimal side effects and is ideal in hospice care. Not only does it
benefit the patient but also family members and caregivers. Our trained staff choose the right essential oils and method of application. They incorporate aromatherapy through touch and massage or through diffusers. Massage in itself is beneficial and when paired with aromatherapy, can boost the mood and ease the tension many hospice patients experience. Reiki treats the whole person. It is a Japanese therapy for stress reduction and relaxation. Reiki is a popular and beneficial healing modality that is utilized for health and wellness. It is based on energetic principles and is practiced in many hospitals, medical settings, and in private practice all around the world. Music can be a powerful tool at end of life by bringing peace and harmony to a hospice patient. Studies have shown that patients at end of life engage more easily when music is playing. Music therapy has always proven to enhance verbal and motor abilities for adults, teenagers and children. Pet therapy promotes conversation, activity and emotional connections during a visit. Some patients enjoy petting the animal and having them lay by them to cuddle. Others like to throw a ball and play fetch, while some give the dog commands to do.
