VILLAGE NEWS >> COVER STORY

Crossroads offering entertainment, activities Festival celebrates 41st year in village

BY MEGANN HORSTEAD For the Bugle @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

With Crossroads Festival fast approaching for 2017, members of the Shorewood Area Chamber of Commerce anticipate drawing in a plethora of people to the hometown carnival.

The festival funs three days from Aug. 4, which also features a special needs event in the afternoon, through Aug. 6.

This year’s theme intends to recognize the Village of Shorewood as it looks to celebrate a milestone.

“It’s the 60th anniversary,” said Carol Wagner, president of Shorewood Area Chamber of Commerce. “Sunday is dedicated to Shorewood. Birthday cake and pictures from the Village’s past. It will be dedicated to celebrating.”

New to the festival this year is a number of attractions.

“We have a video gaming truck,” Wagner said. “It will be there Friday evening from 4 p.m. to 10 p.m. It is $10 for unlimited play and $10 each day. It has the latest Xbox and all the video games out there.”

For the sixth year, Crossroads

Festival is hosting its special needs event.

“We kick it off Aug. 4 at 1 p.m. with a carnival pre-party,” Wagner said. “Kids who have special needs will be there. It’s slower pace, there’s no lights, there’s no loud sounds, and there’s no long lines.”

Friends for the Day will provide help to families in need of a helping hand, and Crossroads Festival has a slate of people who will ride the rides with children who need to be accompanied.

“It’s a hometown carnival,” Wagner said of the festival’s appeal. “A lot of families come out, and everyone knows each other.”

The festival will have a number of vendors serving concessions ranging from pizza and tacos to Italian and Polish food.

Headlining the ages 21 and up entertainment tent throughout the weekend will include Back Country Roads, Arra Classic Rock, Strung Out, Hi Infidelity and Generation. To sit in on the acts, the cover charge is $5.

There will be free live entertainment for festivalgoers to enjoy on Eat Street, and it all starts at 5:30 p.m. Aug. 5 with the Millenials set to perform a mix of classic rock, as well as various tunes spanning from the 70’s to current.

“Over the three days each year, 20,000 people come,” Wagner said. “It’s crowded. You have the

carnival at one end, the entertainment at the other end. We’ve got a cars show, a petting zoo, and a craft and vendor expo.”

Between a bags tournament and eating contests on Aug. 4, festivalgoers have many activities to try their luck at winning.

Fireworks will cap off the evening of Aug. 5 and a parade will kick-start the final day of the festivities.

Wagner said the trick to making the most of one’s experience at the festival is simple.

“We pass out the event schedule,” Wagner said. “My suggestion is go through it, mark what you want to do, and check out the event. Make sure you don’t miss it.”

Wagner encourages volunteers to get involved as the event approaches, and said assistance will be needed as carnival ticket sellers and traffic controllers.

The festival is to be presented

by Shorewood Area Chamber of Commerce with sponsorship provided by Heartland Bank and Trust Company, GMC, D’Arcy Buick-GMC. For a complete schedule of entertainment and activities, go to https://www.crossroadsfest.com

CREST HILL

Local pet store draws protesters July 15 protest organized by Safe Pets for Joliet group

BY MARK GREGORY Bugle Staff @BugleNewspapers sweditor@buglenewspapers.com

While the pet store Puppy in the Window may have left the Joliet city limits, it did not leave animal rights activist group Safe Pets for Joliet behind.

The shop, which has been located at 2400 Caton Farm Rd. in Crest Hill for about six weeks, was the site of a protest July 15 organized by Safe Pets for Joliet.

“Puppy in the Window used to be located in Joliet and since they have moved, we are supporting our friends in Crest Hill because they are now dealing with the problem we had,” said Morgan Drdak, founder of Safe Pets for Joliet.

“What we are doing out here today is raising awareness that the pet store does not have a rescue model and sells dogs from commercial breeders. We want to encourage people to rescue or adopt and not buy from stores that sell animals from mills because that just perpetuates the problem and puts money into the pockets of the inhumane breeders.”

While Roxana Dusanek, owner of Puppy in the Window, acknowledges she is a for-profit business that makes money off the sale of animals, she denies any inhumane actions.

“I have spent my entire adult life fighting for the welfare of animals,” Dusanek said. “So, to be accused of doing the one thing I would never do just hurts. Are there pet stores that buy from puppy mills? Yes. But I don’t. I do make a profit off the sale of animals, but to say that I abuse them and neglect them is beyond farfetched.”

Dusanek said she feels groups like Safe Pets for Joliet would be better off working with her than against her.

“The accusations that they make are so farfetched,” she said. “If we would work together, we could probably eliminate puppy mills, but the fact that they are so radical and so unwilling to listen and work together makes it even harder. We are spending time fighting against each other instead of fighting to stop the awful puppy mills. In the things they pass out, the breeders on the list were 9 days after I bought the store and none of those puppies were purchased by me.”

Safe Pets for Joliet also state that puppy mills are not the only reason for their protest – it is also to educate consumers.

“There are no return policies at pet stores – they don’t exist,” Drdak said. “If you buy a dog and it is $5,000 after financing and you can’t afford the health care or the pay-

ments, it doesn’t matter, it is your problem. So, this is as much about consumer protection. We are trying to educate people. They go to a pet store and fall in love and they don’t realize what they are doing on the back end and that is supporting

financially the animal cruelty that goes on in puppy mills and taking away the opportunity for a homeless pet to find a home. There are a lot of bad of buying from a pet store and we are just trying to educate people on that.”

COLUMN >> THINKING ABOUT HEALTH

Patient-centered care shouldn’t be just a marketing slogan

BY TRUDY LIEBERMAN Rural Health News Service Recently I heard from a woman in rural Nebraska who told me about her 76-year old father, who in late April had a lemon-size cancerous mass removed from his brain. The man chose to have his chemotherapy and radiation treatments at a hospital close to his home instead of at one of the larger hospitals farther away. Not surprisingly he wanted family nearby. Nearly two months later, in mid-June, his treatments finally began. Why the delay?

His daughter told me the nearby hospital “had no record of two appointments they had made with my dad and rescheduled at least once.” She asked me if her father was being neglected because he was on Medicare, adding, “He is so angry. We are so angry. So much for urgency and professionalism.”

So much for patient-centered care – that buzz phrase that’s all the rage in healthcare circles. It goes by a lot of different names like patient engagement, patient activation, and shared-decision making. If care is truly patient-centered, it revolves around eight principles identified in research by the Harvard Medical School and the Picker Institute. They include respect for patient preferences, coordination of care, information and education, physical comfort, emotional support, involvement of family and friends, continuity and transition, and access to care.

For the family in question, the Nebraska hospital simply didn’t meet those standards.

What passes for patient-centered care falls short for a lot of other people, too, like one man who spent weeks trying to get his diabetic test strips. His current supplier had lost its Medicare contract, and Medicare sent him a letter advising him of a new approved source.

He called the number he was sent and ordered new strips. A week later he went to the pharmacy to pick up his supplies

but was told they had no record of his order. Days passed before he got the strips.

Six months later he encountered another problem – this time with his supplier of pens used to inject insulin. He ordered them and approved the charge to his credit card using a telephone automated order system. Several days later the supplier called and left a message asking him to confirm the shipment.

When he called back, he learned the cost exceeded the limit for automatic approvals, and the order wouldn’t be processed until he personally approved the charge. No one had told him there was a limit. So much time had passed that he had only a two-day of supply of insulin left. “The delay created a potential emergency,” he said.

Often patient engagement has come to mean selling things, particularly tools and devices, that purport to help patients manage their care. During the man’s many calls with the supplier the company tried to sell him knee and back braces, advising that Medicare would pay if he got a doctor’s prescription.

Last year I was invited to attend a panel discussion about innovations in patient engagement. The room was full of young marketers eager to sell their products and share the best ways to reach patients. Since the term patient engagement is so slippery, it wasn’t surprising the program began with a discussion of what it actually meant.

One panelist offered this definition:

“It really has to do with how can you get patients to do more or become more active in the ecosystem about their health.” Another said, “Let’s think of patient engagement as a marketplace.

How are they engaged in the marketplace?

Perhaps he meant that people like the man who needed an insulin pen pronto would be “engaged” enough to buy a brace he did not need.

Another panelist noted, “People’s engagement with health is quite low.

There’s a gap we’re seeing between technology and tools and the patients and doctors involved in using them.” A fellow panelist said patients “don’t want just excellent care. They want an experience.”

Most experts would argue that patients too often are not getting excellent care. Postponing medical treatment because of schedulers’ errors and nearly running out of insulin because a company’s procedures are inefficient hardly qualify as excellent care. “Experiences” like those are all too common.

That’s not to say patients shouldn’t be active in their care. Growing evidence suggests that patients who are more actively involved have better health outcomes. But that doesn’t mean profitseeking providers should be pushing unnecessary care, pills, or devices onto patients.

I recently got a letter called a Care Consideration from Aetna, my supplemental insurer. It said, “This information was identified to support you in working with your doctor to improve your health.” The letter was a not-sosubtle push to take a statin for heart disease. There was just one problem. At my last physical less than a year ago my cholesterol was “excellent,” as it always has been. No medication required.

Pushing a drug and trying to overrule my doctor does not qualify as patient engagement.

What does patient engagement mean to you? Write to Trudy at trudy.lieberman@gmail.com.

Joliet Slammers host Frontier League All-Star festivities

BY MARK GREGORY Sports Editor @Hear_The_Beard mark@buglenewspapers.com

Last week, Joliet was the epicenter of the Frontier League as the Slammers hosted the annual league All Star game and corresponding events.

The activities included everything from a golf outing at Mistwood Golf Club to a beer fest to a replica of the Collins Street prison as a giveaway to fans.

“It has been a tremendous three days,” said Frontier League Commissioner Bill Lee at the game. “The Joliet Slammers staff

25

YEARS OF THE FRONTIER LEAGUE

has done things great. Every event has been wonderful. The city treated us great, the accommodations have been great and the fans were wonderful. I can’t say enough good things about our experience here in Joliet these few days.”

The events in Joliet marked the 25th anniversary of the Frontier League – the oldest independent league still in operation.

The league is still keeping with its mission to allow players the chance to chase their dream to play professional baseball.

“That is the premise of it and that is something I have always wanted because I played independent baseball myself in 1977 and I wanted it to be better for everyone than I ever had it,” Lee said.

The highlight of the week was the game in which the Slammers and the East won 4-1 over the West.

Bralin Jackson of the Washington Wild Things went 2 for 4 with a pair of RBI and earned the game’s Most Valuable Player award.

The East scored first when Washington’s Kane Sweeney and Will Kengor of Traverse City hit back-to-back doubles.

Another Wild Thing player, Rashad Brown then singled in

WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 2017 | BUGLENEWSPAPERS.COM Kengor.

The West got on the board in the top of the fifth, but the East again scored a pair in the bottom of the sixth on Jackson’s two-run double.

Jordan Kurokawa of the Lake Erie Crushers earned the win, while Windy City Thunderbolt Brian Loconsole recorded the save.

Joliet Slammers’ Danny Zardon went 1-for-2, Melvin Rodriguez 1-for-2, Chaz Meadows 0-for-1, while Luis Cruz allowed one run while striking out one batter in his one inning. Juan Silva was a member of the East team but did not bat.

Getting the win was a bonus, but the Slammers’ players were just happy to be playing at home.

“Me and my teammates were so excited,” Silva said. “We were

so excited to be home. We live like 10 minutes from here, so we could relax. It was awesome.”

The day before the game, Jeff Gardner of the Evansville Otters won the home run derby with his 14th homer of the round and 41st of the evening. Gardner entered the break leading the Frontier League with 13 total home runs.

Inducted were: Chase Burch – he played for the Traverse City Beach Bums from 2010-13. He finished his Frontier League career with .283 batting average, 68 home runs, and 235 RBI and helped the Beach Bums to the 2010 Frontier League Championship Series; Travis Garcia, who played for the Ohio Valley Redcoats (2005), Chillicothe Paints (2006-08). He was the 2007 league Most Valuable Player and

posted a Frontier League career .304 batting average, 57 home runs and 275 RBI. He paced Chillicothe to the 2006 Championship Series; Gator McBride, who played for the Chillicothe Paints (1998-99). In 1998 he led the Paints to the Championship Series. He batted .423 with 27 home runs and 111 RBI in 108 Frontier League games before signing with the Boston Red Sox; Pete Pirman, who played for the Evansville Otters (2002), Richmond Roosters (2003) and Kalamazoo Kings (2004-06). The 2005 Most Valuable Player led Kalamazoo to its only Frontier League title. He is tied for the single season record with 100 RBI in 2005 and posted a .300 batting average with 47 home runs and 247 RBI in his Frontier League career.

Joining the players was Special Contributor Steve Sturgill.

He was the first president of the Frontier League and one of the original league owners, running the Portsmouth Explorers in 1993 and 1994.

He is the only person other than Bill Lee to have his signature stamped on the Frontier League baseball.

“I’m very proud of the Hall of Fame Class of 2017. This class represents the first 21 years of the League. All the players contributed greatly to the success of their teams. They proved to be leaders with their offensive and defensive skills,” Lee said in a release. “Steve Sturgill was one of the founders of the League and helped to pave the way for all the players to be become Hall of Famers.”

Brooks takes over women’s basketball Steve Brooks, the fifth-winningest active coach in NAIA Division II, has been named the new head women’s basketball coach at University of St. Francis, director of athletics Dave Laketa announced Wednesday.

Brooks comes to Joliet following an 18-year stint at Indiana Wesleyan University where he won two NAIA Division II national championships (2006-07, 201213) and one NCCAA national title (2001-2002). He holds an overall record of 469-133 and has been awarded five national coach of the year awards.

“Coach Brooks boasts quite the winning pedigree on the basketball court, but what impressed the committee the most was how he developed champions off the

court, in the classroom and in the community,” said Laketa. “He built teams the right way and the student-athletes came out better because of it.”

“Of his former players and colleagues that I talked to, they first brought up his character and the man he is before discussing the coach he is. That told me a lot about the person Steve is and how great a fit he would be for our program.”

The graduation rate of Brooks’ teams at Indiana Wesleyan was a perfect 100 percent for the players who played in the program all four years. He also led eight service trips with his teams.

“First of all, I want to thank Dave Laketa, Dr. Arvid Johnson, Damon Sloan and the entire search com-

mittee for conducting the search process in a first-class way and for making me feel welcomed,” Brooks said. “I am extremely excited to take over an outstanding program that accomplished so much under coach Samantha Quigley Smith’s leadership. I hope to take what she built, keep the momentum going and sustain a women’s basketball program that the university can be proud of for its performance on the court, dedication in the classroom and contributions in the community.”

Brooks’ teams at Indiana Wesleyan were especially dominant in the late 2000s, setting many NAIA women’s basketball records highlighted by his 2006-07 squad becoming the first NAIA national champion to go undefeated

(38-0). The program also posted an NAIA record 56 consecutive wins between 2006 and 2008, and was ranked No. 1 for 37 straight weeks during that run, the most of any NAIA Division II program.

On the national stage, Brooks holds a 25-12 record at the NAIA National Championships with his IWU teams reaching the national tournament in 14 consecutive seasons between 2002 and 2016.

At the conference level, Brooks’ Wildcats won 78 percent of their Crossroads League/Mid-Central College Conference games (21261), while claiming 10 regularseason league crowns and another six tournament championships.

Seven times he was named the conference coach of the year.

During his tenure at Indiana

Wesleyan, Brooks coached 15 NAIA All-Americans, 22 NAIA Scholar-Athletes and 25 allconference players. He was also recognized with the President’s Award for Outstanding Leadership and the Athletic Director’s Award at the Marion, Ind.-based school.

Previous to Indiana Wesleyan, Brooks served two stints as an assistant men’s basketball coach at Taylor University (1983-86, 1993-99) and seven years as the head men’s basketball coach at Houghton College from 1986-93.

He also coached for two seasons as an assistant boys’ basketball coach at Liberty Benton High School in Findlay, Ohio.

• Londyn Feasel (Plainfield, Ind./Plainfield) has announced that she will transfer to University of St. Francis to play women’s soccer for the Fighting Saints after competing at Saint Joseph’s College (Ind.) last year.

A sophomore forward/ midfielder, Feasel closed out her high school career as head coach Krissy Sullivan’s leading scorer.

With that distinction came a myriad of honors.

Besides being named the Quakers’ top team player, Feasel earned second-team all-state status, allcounty honors and all-conference recognition. She was also named an academic all-state honorable mention choice.

“I am happy Londyn decided on St. Francis to continue her college experience,” said St. Francis head coach John Nikchevich. “Finding the right place to transfer was important to Londyn and USF will allow her to pick up where she left off at Saint Joseph’s.

WEDNESDAY, JULY 19, 2017 | BUGLENEWSPAPERS.COM

“Londyn will compete right away to be on the field. I look forward to start working with her and getting her together with the team.”

A captain and four-year letterwinner at Plainfield High School, Feasel plans on continuing to work towards a degree in elementary education at St. Francis.

• University of St. Francis head men’s soccer coach Dan Cross has announced the signing of Carlos Ferrer Coto (La Fresneda, Spain/ Colegio San Ignacio) to a letter of intent to attend the Joliet-based school and play for the Fighting Saints.

Coto, a goalkeeper, stands six feet, two inches and checks in at 205 pounds.

“I am very excited to announce the signing of Carlos,” said Cross.

“He is part of an exciting 2017 recruiting class and an important addition to our squad. He will add more competition to the goalkeeper position, competing for the starting spot with our other returnees.

“Carlos comes to us with plenty of experience playing at a high level in Spain. What I like about him is his size and his ability to command his box and look big in goal.

He has good reflexes and is a good

shot stopper. He also does well attacking crosses.

“Carlos not only excels on the field, but he is also a very good student.”

Coto plans on majoring in international business.

USF added another international flair to its 2017 roster in striker Joshua Yeaman (Doncaster, United Kingdom/Balbycarr Academy), who recently signed a letter of intent to attend the Joliet-based school and play for the Fighting Saints.

“I am excited that Joshua has decided to further his education and soccer career her at University of St. Francis,” said Cross. “Josh is the type of striker that I have been looking for since I came to St. Francis. He is physically strong, he holds the ball up well and he brings others in to play. He is also capable of beating opponents and has a powerful shot.

“Josh will look to compete for a starting position at the center forward role. This is an area of the field that needed strengthening.”

Yeaman plans to major in recreation and sport management.

“Josh is another native from England and he will give us some more grit and determination on the soccer field,” added Cross.

• Luke Tanaka has joined the University of St. Francis athletic department as its director of athletic communications, it was announced by USF director of athletics Dave Laketa on Monday.

Tanaka replaces Dave Hilbert, who served in the same capacity for each of the past five years before taking on a position at East Carolina University in April.

“I am thrilled to join such an outstanding institution and athletic department,” said Tanaka.

“The more I learn about St. Francis and its mission, the more excited I am to be a part of this community.”

Tanaka comes to St. Francis after serving in the sports information office at Elmhurst College for each of the past four years, including one year as a graduate intern following two years as a student assistant.

He has also worked in both independent and collegiate baseball each of the past two summers.

This past summer, Tanaka served as the director of broadcasting and media relations for the Florence Freedom, a member of the Frontier League, the same independent league as that of the Joliet Slammers.

One year earlier, he was a radio

broadcaster and media relations intern for the Battle Creek (Mich.)

Bombers of the Northwoods Summer Collegiate Baseball League.

Tanaka was also one of three interns selected nationally to do an internship with KNBR-680 AM in San Francisco, Calif., in 2014, assisting with the production of SportsPhone 680 and the San Francisco Giants postgame shows during the Giants’ run to the World Series title.

“We are excited to have Luke join our staff,” stated Laketa. “He brings a lot of talents to the position, especially in the areas of social media, broadcasting and promotion of the program.

“We believe he has a great career ahead of him in the profession and are keen on watching his development in the coming years.”

Tanaka graduated from Elmhurst College in 2015, where he earned his bachelor’s degree in interdisciplinary communications. He also minored in both English and math.

During his senior year, he earned the Communications Major Outstanding Graduating Senior award and was a finalist as the Bluejays’ Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year after lettering in tennis each of his four years.

COLUMN >> DAVE SAYS

Research will help with salary negotiations It’s kind of like deciding what to ask for when you sell a car DEAR DAVE, I’ve accepted a promotion that would take me from an hourly wage to a salaried position. Do you have any advice for negotiating a salary?

J DEAR J, The quick and simple answer to this question is you negotiate it based on what you’re worth to the company. Now, how do you figure that out?

There are a couple of measuring sticks you can use. One is associated with the revenue you bring in, and that’s a nice, concrete reference.

Another thing you can do is research some of the more reputable career websites and develop a compensation study based on comparable positions in your area.

If you’re a valuable team member of mine who’s moving from hourly to salary, it wouldn’t be a “negotiation” — it would be a discussion. Honestly, most positions are priced initially at the amount you can be replaced for in the new role.

In other words, what’s the going rate for someone in your position?

If it were me, I’d produce two or three well-researched compensation studies. Give them to your bosses, and talk it through with them. Depending on the size of the company, they may not have done that much work figuring it

out themselves.

It’s kind of like deciding what to ask for when you sell a car. You try to appraise it for what it’s worth in the marketplace to other people.

That’s the way you have a discussion. It’s not that you’re telling them what to do or presenting an ultimatum, you’re asking questions and presenting information.

If someone did that in my office with a respectful and professional manner, it would go a long way.

JOSH

DEAR DAVE, Sometimes our budget gets busted because of home improvements and various other things.

I think we should take money from our emergency fund when this happens, but my wife says it

DEAR JOSH, Overspending isn’t an emergency. If you budget a set amount in one category, and you go over that amount, you’ve got to reduce something in another area to stay within your budget for the month.

If something happens on a pretty regular basis, it’s not an emergency, it’s a predictable event.

That means you need to budget a larger amount for home improvements or whatever the problem area may be.
