Bloody Good Time CHECK OUT HIGHWOOD’S BLOODY MARY FEST THIS WEEKEND. Who makes the best Bloody Mary in the Midwest? That verdict will be determined right here in Highwood this weekend—and you can be a part of it. Celebrate Highwood presents its 10th annual Bloody Mary Fest on Sunday, July 28 at Everts Park in downtown Highwood. This year’s contest will feature the “BEST OF THE BEST,” as contestants have been pre-judged by Chicago’s own Bloody Mary expert Jason Pirock from the Eat, Drink and Bloody Mary blog, and a team of Bloody Mary aficionados. The top 15 mixologists from competing bars and restaurants have been chosen, and will have the opportunity to share their one-of-a-kind recipes with the public while attempting to create the ultimate Bloody Mary. Participants include 28 Mile Vodka Company, 210Live, Elsie Mae’s Canning & Pies of Kenosha, Wisconsin, Greenwood, La Casa de Isaac, Lucky Fish/The Mean Wiener, Maevery Public House, Santi’s Gardens, Scotty’s on Sheridan, The Humble Pub, The Toad Stool Pub, Valor & Culinary Gangster Food Truck, Washington Gardens, and The Wooden Nickel. Contestants are evaluated on taste, presentation, spice, color, texture, and garnish. The competition includes a People’s Choice Award as well as formal judging on the Best Continued on PG 10

RUNNING WITH RACHELL FROM PARENTING TO BUSINESS, FLEXIBILITY IS A HALLMARK FOR ONE HIGHLAND PARK ENTREPRENEUR. BY MONICA KASS ROGERS THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Rachell Runion greets me at her office in business casual dress and black pumps with a chubby baby on her hip. Nine months old, with huge brown eyes, a sparkly lavender dress, and perfectly pink bow lips, Maggie is a smiley, wiggly little girl. She’s eager to crawl back to the playroom where her sister Emma and brother AJ are busy building Legos, drawing pictures, and reading stories with Runion’s wife. It’s already been a busy morning. As AJ finishes up summer camp, Emma accompanies Runion around town while Cyd Runion cares for the baby—all while managing the renovations of the 1920s Highland Park fixer-upper the family moved into this year. Is it always like this? “Yes, but there are always a lot of moving parts to our days,” says Rachell, laughing: “Our friends joke and say there should be a reality show called, ‘Running with Rachell’.” If she moves quickly, it’s because she has a lot of ground to cover. In addition to parenting three children, she’s also working in two cities—Atlanta and now Chicago’s North Shore—as founder, managing broker, and president of TruHaven Homes, a luxury residential property management firm. But efficient by nature, she takes it all in stride. The decision to relocate to the North Shore, where Runion lived during the latter part of her adolescence and early adulthood, was made to be closer to family and to give the children a better education. The move has also provided the opportunity for Rachell to expand her entrepreneurial approach in property management to the North Shore. The balancing act between running TruHaven and parenting with Cyd is one Rachell navigates with pragmatic flexibility. “Our approach to things is unconventional,” she laughs. “I mean, my daughter at 6 years old can show a house better than I can.

kids play soccer on Saturdays. My kids are driving properties with me, because that’s what my family does.” Rachell says she always wanted to raise a family with Cyd. Because Rachell’s mother was adopted, and Rachell herself was taken in by her grandparents later in childhood, she hoped to adopt. But Rachell was also familiar with the plight of children who were

NEWS Atlanta in 2010 with $8,000 in personal loans, one property, and the goal to create a business that clients could rely on—that would offer points of difference from others in the market. W ith many years of experience working in the mortgage industr y, and working for other real estate and property management firms, Rachell wanted to create a company that understood the individual homeowner, along with their concerns and fears about becoming a landlord. She also wanted it to be one that could provide them with a friendly, professional, and truly effective real estate experience tailored to

RUNNING WITH RACHELL Cont. from PG 1 they renovated themselves, on three and a half acres of land in southwest Atlanta, the couple equipped two of the home’s bedrooms with bunk beds, and cribs that would allow the family to take in foster-care children—individually, and as sibling groups, up to four children at a time. “We knew how hard it was for children in foster care to be separated from their brothers and sisters,” she says, “So, this way, we were able to avoid that in our home. It was important to me. I’m Jewish, and this was my mitzvah.” Over the course of the next eight years, Rachell and Cyd fostered 14 children—seven girls and seven boys, most under the age of 3, and two sibling pairs. “One of the biggest things fostering taught us is that children are inherently who they are the day they are born,” says Rachell. “As parents, we love our children, we nurture them, and we can help grow the essence of who they are—but we don’t mold them. Nature is so much bigger than we think in determining who a child really is. And as parents, we have to work with that. Although to nurture is also important, I think a lot of people forget the nature piece.” In addition to the children, the Runion acreage became home to a miniature pony, multiple rescue dogs, pygmy goats, cats, and a flock of chickens. They even had a myriad of other wildlife that regularly visited to the property. “It was quite the crew!” Rachell laughs. But nearing the end of those years, she says “Our heartstrings were giving out. People used to say to me, ‘How do you keep from falling in love with the children while you are fostering them?’ And I’d say, ‘You do fall in love! If you don’t, you’re not doing it right!’” At this juncture, with the decision to step away

tant to cultivate both client and employee/contractor relationships,” she says. In short order, she grew TruHaven into more than 100 properties, and had five employees working for her. (Today the firm has 154 homes in Atlanta, and has just begun to grow its Highland Park presence.) But in 2011, an unexpected phone call from DFACS changed Rachell’s working status to working mom—for good: “DFACS called us to let us know that one of our former foster children, AJ, was up for adoption. After two years of fostering, now our family became a happy three.” A few years later, DFACS called again, this time to find out if the Runion family would be able to adopt a prematurely-born baby girl, Emma. “We had just a few hours to make the decision,” Rachell says. “And of course it was, “Yes!’” And then, most recently, the opportunity came to privately adopt Maggie. “The circumstances around each one of our children, and how we came to be a family were unusual,” she says. “But there’s not just one way to do anything; there are many. I believe good things happen when you are willing to jump. Be different. Take chances. Try getting to the goal a different way. All three of my kids have very different stories, different looks, and bloodlines. But they are very bonded. They are a unit. And I think there’s something to learn from that. As parents, everyone wants to plan everything along a certain trajectory. But when you get pregnant, or adopt, you don’t get to pick your human. Your human is who your human is. So as parents we have to be flexible to grow with that. Flexibility— both with my company, and my approach to parenting—has been a very good thing.”

BEER WARS WILMETTE HISTORICAL MUSEUM EXHIBIT EXAMINES AN ERA OF TEMPERANCE. WORDS BY ELIZABETH PORTER THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

We now know that America’s 13-year experiment with prohibition only empowered gangs, increased violence, and encouraged corruption. But to the hopeful activists of the Women’s Christian Temperance Movement and the Anti-Saloon League, it was the only way to preserve the nation’s identity, keep its families together, and protect its youth. They say hindsight is 20/20. Given the clear failure of prohibition, it may come as a surprise that many North Shore communities outlawed the sale of alcohol within their borders well into the 1970s. Support for the temperance movement in the Chicago suburbs dates to the 1830s, with Northwestern University prohibiting the sale of alcohol within four miles of its campus in 1855. This move created a division between the “drys”—Evanston, Wilmette, Kenilworth, Win-

netka, and Glencoe, and the “wets”— Skokie, Glenview, and Gross Point. The “drys” embraced prohibition laws before the national law went into effect in 1920, and maintained them well after it was repealed in 1933. In fact, Kenilworth only began to allow the sale of alcohol in 2017, making it the final holdout of the “dry” North Shore towns. To learn more about this fascinating local

history, visit the Wilmette Historical Museum to see “Beer Wars: Wets vs. Drys on the North Shore” before it closes on August 4. Historic photos and ads, a section of an original bar counter, and other saloon amenities will be featured. The museum is open Sunday

through Thursday from 1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Admission is free. The Wilmette Historical Museum is located at 609 Ridge Road in Wilmette. For more information call 847-853-7666 or visit wilmettehistory.org.

ALL FOR BEAUTY RETIRED LAKE FOREST HIGH SCHOOL ART TEACHER DEBRA ZARE UNVEILS ART EXHIBIT AT THE GALLERY. BY ELIZABETH PORTER THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Austrian painter Gustav Klimt once said, “Even when I am being idle, I have plenty of food for thought both early and late—thoughts both about and not about art.” When Debra Zare retired after 30 years of teaching art, she knew she wouldn’t be idle. But like the Symbolist painter who so influences her today, thoughts of her work are a constant presence. Both as a teacher and an artist, Zare has never stagnated—constantly exploring new challenges and going the extra mile. “As a teacher, Deb Zare was an encyclopedia of knowledge in so many media,” reflects longtime co-worker and friend Carolyn Bielski. “She came in every morning with ideas that she had dreamed up the night before on things like new courses, new units, or field trips.” Additionally, Zare never stopped producing her own work: “I was always an active artist. That was important to me.” Now, this beloved former teacher’s first solo exhibit, “All For Beauty,” will be on display at The Gallery in Lake Forest starting with the opening reception on Thursday, August 1, from 5 to 7 p.m. Zare—a graduate of Libertyville High School who specialized in ceramics at Northern Illinois University and later went on to start the photography program at Lake Forest High School— always wanted to become a better painter. “When I was teaching, I only produced a few paintings each year,” she explains. Retirement offered her that opportunity. So, as she considered what to do with her time after retiring in 2016, she decided to put in the work to hone her painting style and skills, attending workshops, taking classes, studying other painters, and working with mentors including David Gista, Didier Nolet, and Ina Bierle.

Works by retired Lake Forest High School teacher Debra Zare.

“Ina is my second set of eyes. Whatever I’m struggling with, she helps me,” says Zare. Knowing that she wanted to do her first solo exhibit, she had to create a body of work with a unified theme. She found inspiration in the work of Gustav Klimt. “I’m so taken by how he uses gold,” she says. “And the way he makes the women’s faces and hands emerge from two-dimensional backgrounds, he makes them come alive. It’s really quite beautiful.” While Klimt found the sensual beauty in women, Zare’s muses are orchids. As an avid gardener, she has plenty of experience with orchids, “I love how they look, very feminine, very sensual shapes. We all try to grow them, some successfully, most unsuccessfully,” she adds with a laugh. Like Klimt, the shapes and patterns surrounding her subjects are flat, contributing to her compositions spatially and decoratively. Back when she had seven orchid paintings completed, she was eating dinner at The Gallery

in Lake Forest with her husband Dave when they ran into her dear friend Cecilia Lanyon, the gallery’s co-owner. Dave urged her to tell Lanyon what she had been working on, and when she did Lanyon was all for it. “I asked her how many I needed to have, she said ‘13 to 15.’ I said ‘okay’ and got to work.” Bielski praised Zare’s recent work, explaining that “Compositionally, where many of Klimt’s arrangements were centered or monolithic, Deb has challenged herself to find asymmetrical balance of the elements on the page,” she says, adding: “Deb is capable of creating mannerist, brushy work as well as highly realistic renditions

| SATURDAY JULY 27 | SUNDAY JULY 28 2019

of her subjects. Viewers will see both styles in ‘All For Beauty’.” True to her nature of always challenging herself to explore a new medium, Zare incorporated gold leaf—which is notoriously difficult to work with—into many of her paintings. “If you try to pick it up with your hands it will crumble and fly all over,” she explains, adding, “Luckily I watched a You Tube video before I started.” “Deb doesn’t take herself too seriously, so the viewer will find a few pops of humor hidden among the paintings on display,” adds Bielski. At her showcase, each of the paintings will be accompanied by a print of the specific Klimt painting, which she drew from, as well as the standard title card. “It’s about my investigation of his work and how I can borrow some components of it in my own pieces,” she says. Zare has been working on her orchid paintings for two years, taking the summers off to spend time at the beach in Michigan. But, she brings her sketchbook along and works on ideas when inspiration strikes. She finished her final painting last June, but ‘idle’ is not in her vocabulary: “I’ve got ideas for a few more, but I’m not sure if they’ll be done in time for the show. I already have 15, so I’m not worried.” While she loves being retired from teaching and focusing on her art work, she misses the day-to-day contact with her students. “They inspired me when I saw what they were working on and what they were passionate about.” While Debra Zare is “All For Beauty,” we’re all for Debra Zare. Be sure to attend the opening of her impressive new exhibit to meet her and learn more about her artistic journey. If you can’t make it, stop by The Gallery where her work will be on display for the next eight weeks. For more information, visit thegallerylf.com. THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Future Irish gridder eyes golden opportunity Former LFHS defensive back Eddie Scheidler to cherish walk-on status at Notre Dame. BY BILL MCLEAN THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

On one of the best days of his young life— March 19, 2019, when he found out the University of Notre Dame had accepted him for admission—Eddie Scheidler said good-bye to an old friend: organized football. “I thought, ‘OK, that’s it,’” recalls Scheidler, a 2019 Lake Forest High School graduate and starting defensive back for the Scouts in the 2017 and 2018 seasons. “Time to hang up my football cleats. I was going to play flag football at Notre Dame.” But that plan changed abruptly later in the spring. The series of events that led to his status as a preferred walk-on football player at Notre Dame began when Scheidler went to retrieve his lunch in a locker room at school but got stymied because the doors were locked. The hungry teen then searched for LFHS football coach Chuck Spagnoli, also a member of the Technology Education/Wellness Department at LFHS. Surely the coach would have a key to the locker room. “My coach,” Scheidler recounts, “was in a classroom, talking with Tommy Rees.” LFHS and ND football fans know all about Rees, the former LFHS star quarterback who holds the career record for passing completion percentage among ND quarterbacks. Rees, who played for the Fighting Irish from 2010-2013, now serves as ND’s quarterbacks coach under head coach Brian Kelly. “Coach Spagnoli knew how much I loved Notre Dame and Notre Dame football, and he introduced me to Tommy in the classroom,” says Scheidler, whose parents, Ed and Ann Marie, are ND graduates. Eddie’s sister Grace—one of his four siblings—will be a sophomore economics major in South Bend this fall. Scheidler and Rees talked in Spagnoli’s classroom. Rees encouraged Scheidler to get in touch with Dave Peloquin, Notre Dame football’s director of player personnel. Scheidler, an all-North Suburban Conference selectee after his senior season, sent game film of his highlights to Peloquin. “Never did go back for that lunch,” Scheidler cracks. “In the middle of May, Mr. Peloquin called me and told me, ‘You can go to bed knowing your roster spot is secure.’ That was such great news to hear. Part of me has a hard time believing I’ll have the opportunity, if all goes well, to suit up and stand along a football sideline as a preferred walk-on during Notre Dame home games. Another part of me thinks I’ll be on a field at Lake Forest High School next month, getting ready for a fifth season of prep football.” The likable Scheidler, blessed with a delightful and sneaky sense of humor, laughs before turning serious seconds later. On July 16, he had yet to be notified when to report to training camp. He might have to be there in early August. He might have to be there on August 25.

and safety positions—reached a big milestone in the weight room earlier this month. Scheidler bench-pressed 225 pounds for the first time. Not once. Not twice. But three times in a row. “Eddie,” Bahr says, “had been struggling to lift that amount of weight all summer. He was getting frustrated. But he did it and got excited after doing it. I was excited for him. Eddie, one of my best friends, is an extremely hard worker, always has been, and he loves to grind. The guy works all those hours at Onwentsia and then heads to the weight room for another two or three hours. He loves to do whatever he can to become a better player.” To assuage some of his concerns leading up to his first day as an preferred walk-on in South Bend, Scheidler direct messaged former Notre Dame preferred walk-on Chris Finke, now a Fighting Irish senior wide receiver who had earned a football scholarship—the dream of every preferred walk-on. Scheidler asked Finke to give him a call. A native of Dayton, Ohio, Finke called about two weeks later and answered Scheidler’s questions. They conversed for nearly 45 minutes. “As a freshman, he was small, just like I am,” says Scheidler, who intends to major in business with a focus on either marketing or finance. “Chris was great, very helpful, during our phone call, and I was less nervous after it. I asked him a lot, including, ‘What should I be doing during workouts this summer to make sure I’m ready?’ He also told me what it’s like to be a preferred walk-on and what to expect when I arrive on campus.” Scheidler dealt with anxious thoughts for most of the day on March 19. Ann Marie wondered if her son wanted to be at home when he found out—via a message, delivered to his phone—if Notre Dame had either accepted him or denied him admission. Eddie Scheidler wanted to be alone. “I was working out at the Lake Forest Rec Center on that day,” he recalls. “It was one of my worst workouts. It was close to 5 p.m., and I kept refreshing the admissions status portal. Finally, I read the decision—the great news. I drove home, with the windows down and the Kool & The Gang song ‘Celebration’ blasting.” Scheidler parked his car in the Scheidler driveway but didn’t get out of it until he had gathered himself. GR‘8’-FUL: Former Lake Forest High School defensive back Eddie Scheidler, seen here in a home game “I was getting ready to pull out my acting skills,” last fall, truly appreciates the preferred walk-on designation he received from Notre Dame’s football he says. “I was getting ready to pretend, in front program in May.

‘Tri’-fecta

Enrollees—and their parents—emerge as winners at child care center in Highland Park BY BILL MCLEAN ILLUSTRATION BY BARRY BLITT

It is 1970. It’s Pam Feinberg’s senior year at Nicolet High School, not far from Milwaukee. Audition details for the school musical “Bells Are Ringing” had been posted. Feinberg vies to receive the nod for the lead role of Ella Peterson, who works for Susananswerphone, a telephone answering service, and gets involved in the lives of the service’s clients to enliven her personal life. Actress Judy Holliday had reprised her Broadway starring role in the 1960 movie of the same name. Dean Martin, as Jeffrey, portrayed Ella’s love interest in the film. But a lingering illness thwarts Feinberg’s bid to snare top billing in the school production in Glendale, Wisconsin. “I missed three weeks of school,” Feinberg, her voice and face betraying tinges of lament, recalls. “But I still was able to perform in the musical. “I sang in the chorus.” Feinberg sings the praises of Tri-Con Child Care Center in Highland Park these days. The Buffalo Grove resident and former Jewish Community Center teacher/administrator has been executive director of the nonprofit agency—established in 1971, when United Way assessed the need for additional subsidized early care and education programs in Highland Park and Highwood—for 17 years. Trinity Episcopal Church in Highland Park, the National Council of Jewish Women, and Immaculate Conception Catholic Church in Highland Park collaborated to create Tri-Con, which serves 45-50 children (ages 3-7) of working parents year-round and offers Preschool, After Kindergarten, and Summer Camp programs. Many of the enrolled students are Englishlanguage learners who live in homes where only Spanish is spoken. The center is licensed by the Illinois Department of Children and Family Services and the Lake County Health Department. Tuition is based on a sliding-fee scale, determined by family income and size. Tri-Con’s steadfast mission, via its dedicated staff and nurturing environment in Trinity Episcopal Church’s lower level: Prepare children to succeed in public schools and thrive as lifelong learners. “We are not babysitters, and we do more, much more, than teach the ABCs,” insists Feinberg, whose “fantastic team” includes assistant director Denise Varner, administrative assistant Sue Santello, teacher Karen Kushner, and bilingual teachers Cristina Reyes and Liz Taboada. “We introduce the children to skills needed for learning, and our literacy program— supported by a public library—is a strong one. We don’t do this alone; we get tremendous support from local organizations, businesses, and individuals. A marionette maker recently made a presentation at Tri-Con, enthralling our children. I wish you could have seen their faces. The arts help build vocabularies. Our children also develop self-confidence, empathy, and problem-solving.” It’s nearly 8 a.m., the start of a day at Tri-Con. Feinberg, sitting in her office, hears children’s voices and laughter and the pitter-patter of the youngsters’

running feet. The executive director smiles. It thrills her, once again, knowing she’ll be surrounded by eager Tri-Con learners for most of her day. They might read something riveting or participate in an activity that stimulates creativity today. They might hear music and fail to suppress the urge to dance to the music today. They might realize listening is an invaluable skill today. They might explore and experiment through p l a y today.

They might make more friends today. Friends for life. “One of my favorite sights in the morning during my workday is that of a smiling parent hugging an excited child goodbye before heading to work,” says Feinberg, who changed her major from nursing to education while attending the University of Wisconsin-Madison. “That parent looks comfortable to me. Looks grateful, too. Our children’s parents know their children are in good hands with us, as well as in a safe environment. They know w e ’ r e committed to teaching, t o pro-

moting kindness toward others, to stressing the importance of having respect for others, and to preparing them for their grade-school years and beyond.” Pam and Steve Feinberg are the parents of Stevenson High School graduate Jessica, a 37-year-old

attorney, and the grandparents of Jessica’s 3- and a 5-year-olds. They live in Washington, D.C. Decades earlier, Jessica served as a volunteer at … Tri-Con Child Care Center. “Jessica,” Pam Feinberg says, “reminded me of the time she had spent at Tri-Con after Tri-Con hired me.” Pam’s father, Jerry, died at the way-too-young age of 44 when Pam was 19. Years later her stepfather set her up on a blind date with Steve. The pair ate Haagen-Dazs ice cream at a shop in Chicago. “I ordered a scoop of vanilla chocolate almond,” says Pam, who typically orders an omelet when she’s at either her No. 1 or No. 2 breakfast spot— Walker Bros. Original Pancake House or Egg Harbor Café. “I didn’t get an ice cream cone that night because eating that could have been too sloppy on a first date. We sat and talked for hours. We closed the place. Our second date was at a fundraiser, held at Drury Lane Water Tower Place. I met his whole family there.” The courtship lasted six months. Pam and Steve got married in 1977. “We love to travel. We love to visit our grandchildren,” says Feinberg, a regular Ravinia Festival concertgoer, a fan of plays and musicals, and an avid reader of novels and mysteries. “We see them every eight weeks or so. “I always make sure I pack plenty of books and toys for our grandchildren.”
