R.O.K. Island Splash celebrated its grand opening with a ribbon cutting on Friday, September 11. Located at 132 Sibley Blvd. in Dolton, IL (the former Village of Dolton Media center), R.O.K. will wash and detail you car while you wait in their attractive waiting room. A big screen TV plays jazz videos (Sade was singing Sweetest Taboo), and a pool table waits for a quick game. One wall is completely covered with artificial greenery for a cool, soothing environment. A vending machine offers candy, salty snacks and drinks. Call Quintin Lambert at 708-880-1469 about the $15 spotless wash, the $22 premium wash, or the $70 premium wash & wax. And the car wash is not the only new business at this location—upstairs in the same building is a salon (pictured below) where ladies can enjoy a hairstyling; candles and body rubs are sold in a small display. One door down is a dreads station for those who have or want dreadlocks. Behind the next door is an art shoe shop, where Cameron Sweeney (bottom left) can decorate your shoes or offer a selection of his own custom creations. Downstairs at the counter, End Game Nutrition offers Metabolife sports nutrition, weight loss, supplements for new moms, and many other products, along with Brandon Davis’ nine years of expertise at meeting your health and wellness needs. Come in this month for half off the Specialty Shake in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness! Owner manager Kamal Woods (pictured at left in the white jacket) owns several Dolton businesses and is himself an artist (you can see his art on the upstairs wall).

The Illiana Cat Project to Host Online Fall Festival The Illiana Cat Project is a Lansing-based trap, neuter, return (TNR) initiative, run entirely by a small group of volunteers. All donations fund their efforts to trap, neuter, and re-home community cats. As kitten season winds down, the Illiana Cat Project has focused their efforts on a new fundraising project—the Fall Fur Festival: an online vendor fair, aimed at providing a bit of familiarity to the upcoming fall season as well as exposure to local business and artisans. The Fall Fur Festival is a vendor fair that will take place entirely online from October 9-16, 2020. Vendors will utilize a Facebook group to market their goods and services through posts and live video. Shoppers will peruse the Facebook group, just as they would stroll through an outdoor vendor fair, but the online format will allow for the safety of all participants. Prizes, games, and giveaways will also take place throughout the week. “Vendors can sell their goods or offer deals to funnel
shoppers to their personal website or business,” said Illiana Cat Project team member Maleesa Losnedahl. “We are envisioning a diverse lineup of vendors and while we may not be able to set up our booth on a fall day, we hope this online event can provide a touch of that fall fest experience.” Lead humane trapper Megan Noort is incredibly grateful for the outpouring of community support over the summer: “We appreciate each and every supporter for the compassion they’ve put towards our mission to help community cats. And every dollar is important because many one dollar donations can add up really fast and these kittens and cats are able to be spayed or neutered, vaccinated, and get the vet care that they wouldn’t normally get.” Fall Fur Fest vendor registration is open until September 30. To register, or for more information, visit www.illianacatproject. com. Shoppers can begin joining the Fall Fur Festival group on October 1.
