In this issue, as we often do, we take a look back and a look forward. The historical significance of a recently donated tenor horn to Spring Valley’s collections is explored in an article describing the rise of community concert bands in America—timely since Spring Valley will be hosting Schaumburg’s own community concert band on September 12 at our Concert at the Cabin event. A glimpse into some of the latest thinking on water storage technology can be seen in the article on cisterns. Many forward thinking people agree that fresh water will soon replace petroleum as the most valuable natural resource in the decades to come. It is interesting to note that while some politicians and armchair scientists continue to quibble over the accuracy of climate change data and its implications, important work on solutions to the resultant problems associated with an already changing climate are being done on the forefront of science and engineering.
