A vehicle exits the parking garage in downtown La Grange on Thursday. Business owners and village officials recently have been discussing potential solutions to parking congestion downtown. lots on the edge of downtown.

Bella Bacinos manager Chloe Scott, who attended the meeting, said she has noticed business owners park in prime street spots that the village estimates are worth $60,000$70,000 a year to businesses.

“The biggest problem is that not all the restaurateurs are on the same page and aren’t putting in the effort,” Scott said.

Restaurant owners used to meet regularly to discuss issues such as parking, but have stopped, said Scott, who was disappointed that only a handful of owners attended

LaPidus’ meeting.

Every Friday and Saturday, Bella Bacinos hears complaints about the shortage of parking downtown, Scott said. To free up prime spaces, Scott tells her workers to park on the top of the parking structure behind Village Hall.

When those spaces fill up, they look for parking in surface lots where their stickers apply.

LaPidus said he has workers who have to leave during their shifts to move their cars from 3-hour parking spots. He calls the current parking situation a “crisis” and wants a

new parking structure on the west side of La Grange Road, a big request considering the controversy over the building of the 368-space, $8 million structure behind Village Hall in 2005.

In the short term, LaPidus proposed that the village waive the $20 per month fee that employees of downtown businesses pay to park in them.

“When you’re making $8.50 an hour, $20 a month is a lot to pay to park at your job,” he said.

That move would cost the village $75,000 a year, said Pat-

LA GRANGE – With summer attracting visitors to downtown La Grange, several restaurant owners are worried that lines of customers waiting to eat will be matched by lines of cars searching and searching for parking.

But their bigger problem might be getting through to fellow business owners.

This summer, the village will increase enforcement of parking restrictions as a response to a few business owners who fear that limited parking in the booming downtown will scare off visitors.

Spaces designated for those with Central Business District stickers, previously enforced until about 4 p.m., will be monitored until about 8 p.m. in downtown’s busiest section – between Ashland and Sixth avenues from Cossit Avenue to the railroad tracks, the village said.

The change comes several weeks after Michael LaPidus, owner of Q BBQ, organized a meeting attended by village officials and representatives from about five downtown restaurants to weigh potential parking solutions.

“Parking is a problem in downtown La Grange, and the deck helped, but the village stopped at the deck,” LaPidus said by phone. “They didn’t do any more long-term planning.”

Before any big changes, the village wants businesses to instruct their employees to park in the designated Central Business District spaces or in

rick Benjamin, the village’s community development director. He said employees should park along Burlington Avenue or in other surrounding lots instead of taking up spaces outside of businesses.

“That’s money that’s being lost,” Benjamin said. “[Business owners] are stealing money from each other. At least when you know it’s going to be busy, let’s make a little effort.”

LaPidus said it’s unrealistic for his workers to park on Burlington Avenue.

“Female [employees] aren’t going to [want to] walk three blocks to their car,” he said. “And it’s just human nature to want to park closer.”

LaPidus splits costs for a valet service for patrons on Thursday to Saturday evenings with three other businesses – Prasino, Francesca’s Bellezza and the La Grange Theatre – and he asked other owners to consider joining.

He said it would cost each owner $150 a month if 20 businesses partnered to offer the service for the three busiest nights of the week.

He also proposed allowing valet parking in the lot at Cossitt Avenue School. The school previously has opposed that option.

Before the village considers a new parking structure or other big changes, Benjamin wants business owners to do their part in freeing up spaces for customers.

“I’m a firm believer that we need to manage the supply that we have first,” Benjamin said. “And if we try everything and that doesn’t work, we can have those conversations.”

Brookfield woman offers tech support to seniors

By ALEX RUPPENTHAL aruppenthal@shawmedia.com LA GRANGE PARK – Chuck Tracy is 95 and just learning to email.

Seated in front of his computer in his apartment at Bethlehem Woods Retirement Community, Tracy clicks through his messages with help from Rita Kuzmenko, who started Gentle Technology Guidance, Inc., in October to help people like Tracy.

“I clicked on delete,” Tracy said, “nothing happened.”

“Try clicking without moving the mouse,” Kuzmenko said. “It’s important to try to keep your hand steady.”

Kuzmenko, 49, started her business after talking with several friends who wanted to email with their parents, but their parents didn’t know how. At $50 an hour, her service is a bargain compared to Best Buy’s Geek Squad, which charges $99 for an in-home visit, plus additional costs for repairs or other services.

Kuzmenko offers help with any hardware, software, tablets and e-readers. The service requested most often is help with emailing.

“Basically, that’s all I’m expecting of the computer,” Tracy said. “I may find out that I can expect more. But right now, it’s just a read-and-write type thing.”

Like the name of her business suggests, Kuzmenko

She gives each of them a folder and fills it with sheets of instructions – she calls them “recipes” – for different tasks.

“If you can point and click and read, you can do it,” said Kuzmenko, who lives in Brookfield and, through her business, is a member of the La Grange Business Association. “You can work on the computer.”

Kuzmenko recently completed a master’s of education degree with an emphasis in design and technology from Purdue University. But she’s been into technology since she got her first Commodore 64, an 8-bit computer created in 1982. At almost every job she’s held, she’s doubled as tech support, and now she gets to do it full time.

“When you see their fac-

es light up when they get an email from a relative, it’s great,” she said. “And the relatives are so happy they are getting their emails now.”

Getting there comes with challenges, though. Her clients often struggle with holding the mouse still. They download programs they don’t need, which fills up their computers. And they worry about losing control of

their personal information – Kuzmenko teaches them how to identify spam emails by holding the cursor over the return address to see if it’s legitimate.

Besides all those issues, just sitting in front of a computer can be intimidating for people who grew up decades before it was invented.

“I think it’s just getting over that fear that it’s so much to learn,” Kuzmenko said.

“My focus isn’t to do it for them. My hope is to help them learn to do it themselves.”

Because her clients don’t typically surf the Web, Kuzmenko advertises in newspapers and by word of mouth.

She contracts with several retirement homes, where she works with multiple clients.

Tracy was one of her first regulars. He wanted to correspond with his kids – including his son in Minnesota and daughter in New York – and friends.

When he has trouble, Tracy pulls out Kuzmenko’s “recipes” and follows the steps.

When that doesn’t work, he calls her.

“I have hopes of getting to 100, so if I do, then I’ll have five years having the benefit of Rita’s direction,” he said. “She is a heck of a good teacher.”

To set up an appointment or ask questions about Kuzmenko’s service, contact her at 708-790-1306 or go to www. gentechguide.com.

Wilson then filed six new motions, including an application for a DNA expert and an investigator, a request to use a phone to contact attorneys and a motion to hold Assistant State’s Attorney Andreana Turano in contempt of court.

“I need to warn you that you need to start working on the discovery [phase of the pre-trial] itself,” Hynes said.

“You’re just delaying the process now.”

O’Laughlin’s parents, Brenda and John O’Laughlin, have attended all of the 20-plus hearings.

“It appears that he has a stall tactic,” Brenda O’Laughlin said.

Wilson is being held at Pontiac Correctional Facility. His next hearing is July 8.

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LA GRANGE – As a result of resident feedback after a May 29 police alert issued to the community after a possible child luring attempt, police said they have charged a Berwyn man with disorderly conduct in relation to the incident.

Ricky Ziko, 43, of Berwyn was charged with two counts of disorderly conduct for alarming and provoking a breach Ricky of the peace regardZiko ing his activities in La Grange on May 29, police said in a statement.

A teenage girl was approached May 29 by a man in car and offered candy. The girl did not approach the car and reported the incident to police.

The department got immediate

feedback from residents after they issued a community alert about the incident and learned several other girls had been approached. Police collected additional information and got a better description of the vehicle.

Police put the description out on their police network and received a call from another department about a possible suspect. According to a news release issued by the department, police found the vehicle that had been described to them at a motel in Oak Lawn, as well as Ziko, who was taken into custody.

Police said Ziko was identified in a police lineup as the man who approached the girl May 29.

Police described Ziko as having an “extensive criminal background.”

He has a pending court date at the Bridgeview Courthouse on July 19.

BRIDGEVIEW – A third request for a substitute judge filed by John L. Wilson Jr., the man charged with the October 2011 slaying of 14-year-old Kelli O’Laughlin in her Indian Head Park home, was denied June 6 as Wilson was warned to stop delaying the legal process.

Wilson, 39, of Chicago, is accused of stabbing O’Laughlin when she returned home from Lyons Township High School on Oct. 27, 2011. Authorities arrested him a week later after tracking the cellphone he allegedly stole from O’Laughlin.

Prosecutors said last May that Wilson had been in prison for 17 of the past 20 years.

In his latest motion for a substitute judge, Wilson said he had “extreme discomfort” with his case being heard by Cook County Judge John Hynes.

But presiding judge Raymond Jagielski said Hynes has treated Wilson fairly and that parts of his motion contradicted the transcript of statements he made during previous hearings.

Wilson, who chose to represent himself, also claimed he received court documents he requested prior to his last hearing in May only one day before the hearing.

But a staff attorney for the Illinois Department of Corrections identified receipts signed by Wilson that showed he had access to the documents in March and April.

Police confiscate 13 guns in past year SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA BROADVIEW – Broadview Police have confiscated 13 guns from offenders of various crimes since mid-2012, Police Chief Luis Tigera said in a news release.

Starting last year, the department partnered with surrounding police to target serious crime. The Triangle

task force resulted in the confiscation of one Glock .40 semi-automatic handgun, several smaller caliber pistols, a rifle, a Sig Sauer 9 mm and other guns.

Tigera stressed the importance of police’s relationship with residents in fighting crime.

“They are truly our eyes and ears,” he said. “They

know as well as any police officer when something doesn’t look right in their own neighborhood. As long as they feel that they have a responsive, empathetic and professional police department to rely on, they’re ready to help us help them, and that’s the key to success in law enforcement – teamwork.”

Man arrested after allegedly tackling La Grange police officer at carnival

By ALEX RUPPENTHAL aruppenthal@shawmedia.com LA GRANGE – A La Grange man is being held on $5,000 bond at Cook County Jail after he allegedly tackled and injured a La Grange police officer during the Ahhh! La Grange Carnival on Friday.

About 8:45 p.m., witnesses told police that Martel Aguilar, 20, of the 900 block of La Grange Road, allegedly was making lewd comments, touching women inappropriately and attempting to recruit others to fight police.

Police asked Aguilar to leave,

but he returned, according to police reports.

As police went to take Aguilar into custody, he attempted to flee the area and tackled an officer in the legs, police said.

Aguilar was arrested and charged with aggravated battery to an officer, two counts of resisting an officer and criminal trespassing. He was taken to Cook County Jail on Sunday, where he remains in custody.

Police said Aguilar has an extensive criminal record. On May 26, Aguilar was charged with a separate count of crimi-

nal trespassing after allegedly violating an order of protection that banned him from DiNico’s Pizza.

The officer suffered a serious knee injury and was treated at a local hospital. He remains on crutches and is working on limited duty.

La Grange Police Chief Michael Holub said the officer heard a pop when his knee was struck. He declined to identify the officer.

“We’re a little worried about what may be in there,” Holub said. “It’s very painful for him. He can’t put any weight on it.”

8NEWS BRIEFS Lane closures in store for La Grange Road

West Nile mosquitoes found in Hillside

LA GRANGE PARK – The installation of a 10-inch water main under the west side of La Grange Road will cause daily southbound lane closures through much of the summer between Woodlawn and Brewster avenues.

Northbound lanes will close occasionally, but none of the closures in either direction will occur during the evening rush period, said Brendan McLaughlin, La Grange Park’s Public Works director.

The project is funded by a roughly $500,000 grant from the Army Corps of Engineers and will replace an existing main that is smaller and tends to break.

“When it breaks, it’s out in the middle of La Grange Road,” McLaughlin said.

The project is scheduled to start the middle of next week and last 8 to 10 weeks.

HILLSIDE – The West Nile virus is back.

The Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) confirmed the year’s first batch of mosquitoes with the virus, which can be deadly if transferred to humans. Employees of the Des Plaines Valley Mosquito Abatement District collected a positive sample May 21 in Hillside.

“Although we have been seeing a lot of what we call ‘nuisance’ mosquitoes due to the flooding, those mosquitoes typically do not carry West Nile virus,” said Illinois Department of Public Health Director LaMar Hasbrouck in a news release.

“We are now starting to see Culex mosquitoes, which often do carry disease. Remember, as we head into the summer months, to protect yourself by wearing insect repellent and taking other precautions.”

In 2012, the virus infected 290

residents and caused 12 deaths, the second highest number of cases in state history, according to IDPH. The record was set in 2002, when an outbreak infected 884 residents and caused 67 deaths. No human cases have been reported so far this year.

West Nile virus is transmitted through the bite of a mosquito that has picked up the virus by feeding on an infected bird, IDPH said. Common West Nile virus symptoms include fever, nausea, headache and muscle aches. Symptoms can last from a few days to a few weeks. However, four out of five people infected with West Nile virus will not show any symptoms. In rare cases, severe illness including meningitis and encephalitis, or even death, can occur. People older than 50 are at higher risk for severe illness from the virus.

Information about West Nile virus from IDPH can be found at www.idph.state.il.us/ envhealth/wnv.htm.

LA GRANGE HIGHLANDS – Robert and Annette Persa can’t mow a portion of their backyard. It’s underwater, and it has been for almost two years.

The couple, who live at 1720 54th Place, have had 1 to 2 inches of standing water in their backyard since fall 2011. They’ve had to fence off the back third of the yard so that their dogs don’t run through the mud. The water even loosened the roots of a 75-foot Evergreen tree that uprooted in a strong wind and toppled onto their pool.

The worst part? They can’t get anyone to help.

Last spring, they received visits from a Cook County building and zoning property inspector, a Lyons Township highway commissioner, the president of the La Grange Highlands Civic Association and an engineer from the state. The Cook County official helped clear out drainage in several ditches, but it didn’t solve the problem.

This spring, they made a few more calls, including to the Cook County Department of Public Health, and were twice told they will have to tackle the problem themselves.

“We’re going to do the city’s work,” Robert Persa said.

“What we pay taxes for we’re going to have to do.”

LT grad wins $8.6K on Jeopardy!

By ALEX RUPPENTHAL aruppenthal@shawmedia.com WESTERN SPRINGS – Shirley Rau encouraged her son Jason to try out for Jeopardy! 10 years ago. He thought the idea was crazy.

After finally being persuaded by friends last year, Jason Rau, a 1997 Lyons Township High School grad, tried out and made it onto the elite trivia game show in January. But

he didn’t tell his mom what happened.

“He just thought it would be more fun for us if we didn’t Jason know how he Rau did,” Shirley Rau said. Her only hint was that he sounded happy with his performance.

During the episode, which aired Monday on WLS-TV

Channel 7, Jason Rau finished in third place but took home $7,600, plus a $1,000 bonus from one of the show’s sponsors. Finally, his mom could experience Rau’s big day.

Shirley Rau knew her son had the smarts to be on the show when he was young. As a kid, Jason Rau always was interested in reading baseball statistics, said Shirley Rau, who noticed her son’s sharp memory when he was young.

“It’s just like a trap,” Shirley Rau said. “Not to brag, but he’s really bright.”

Jason Rau participated in math contests and other activities at LT. Now, after graduating from Stanford University, he designs parts for cellphones and cameras as an electrical engineer living in Carlsbad, Calif.

He found out he was selected for the show in September and, being a California resident, had

to first appear as a substitute in November, which helped him get familiar with the studio and get over stage fright.

“You have to learn how to use the clicker real fast,” Shirley Rau said.

Jason Rau declined to comment for this story. And despite declining to tell his mom how he did, she’s still his biggest fan.

“I’m very proud of him,” Shirley Rau said.

Participants will be entered into a raffle for interior design services, computer services and more.

The 50 organizers will donate 100 percent of their fees to the Foundation for Retinal Research, which will use the funds for research of the NPHP5 gene, the gene that affects Mirielle and Patrick.

The foundation already has restored vision in people with two forms of LCA through gene and retinoid therapy.

Organizing services will occur during June, July and August. To register, visit www.organize4eyes.kintera. org. Call Patty Wolf with questions at 708-828-6652.

The other side I would like to address the reader who left the tidbit on your “Sound Off” column titled “Go ahead and squirm.” The retort to that is, as a public servant, I spent the last 30 years responding to your security and criminal needs. In the dark when you wouldn’t open your door, I was there making sure you were all right. When you heard a noise and wouldn’t go down that dark alley, I did. When you needed help from medical or fire emergency, I came there.

Now that our elected officials have brought the mess that they created to the attention of the public, you say, “Go bankrupt.” Shame on you and what you stand for. We gave up parties, plans and events with our families to protect you, now you want to dump us off in the gutter? … I bet you still call us for help. What if we said, “no,” just like you are now?

On pension reform Responding to the caller who mentioned that people getting pensions cut or eliminated shouldn’t be whining. Well, that was money that was promised to these workers all their careers in lieu of salary at that moment.

The politicians skipped making the required pension contributions, and now they want the poor workers to have to fix the situation. Pension reform is pension theft.

Education should stick to the basics, and any of these other things, like water polo, aviation and boating, all these other things that kids do, their parents should pay extra for that.

I have a simple phone. I can’t afford half the stuff these kids have in high school. And because I’m in an unincorporated area, I have to pay if I want a library card. I still don’t have a library card and I’ve lived in this area for 19 years and I’m paying enough property taxes to send somebody’s child to school, but I can’t get a library card for free.

It makes me want to go back to high school so I can take advantage of my own tax dollars.

MCCOOK – Film director Michael Bay recently was mining for movie gold in the western suburbs.

Vulcan Materials Company in McCook hosted Bay and his crew from Paramount Pictures at the end of April while they filmed portions of “Transformers 4.” Bay and other members of the film crew worked with officials at Vulcan to get the shots they needed for the upcoming sequel in the “Transformers” movie series.

“We’re extremely pleased to bring some business into our community,” said David Clement, Vulcan’s vice president. “These partnerships are valuable to us because of the positive impact they have on our friends and neighbors nearby.”

Vulcan Materials Company is located along Joliet Road between 55th Street and First Avenue in McCook.

The quarry seemed ideal for shooting parts of “Transformers 4.”

“Vulcan Materials Company has been a great partner throughout this entire process,” said JJ Hook, a “Transform-

ers 4” supervising location manager. “They’ve been extremely helpful in getting us everything we need for the shoot. The location is magnificent, and the people here were great to work with.

We’re very appreciative of the Vulcan team.”

This is the second consecutive Transformers movie to shoot in the Chicago area after “Transformers 3” filmed scenes up and down Michigan Avenue in downtown Chicago in 2010. In fact, the state has become a hotbed of Hollywood activity in recent years.

Gov. Pat Quinn recently announced that 2012 was the highest grossing year for film production revenue after the state raked in more than $184 million. Thanks to projects such as “Transformers 4,” films have become an economic engine for the Chicago area and Illinois.

“A project like this is a great opportunity to outreach with new community partners,” said Kevin Cox, area manager for Vulcan Materials Company. “We’re proud of the work we do here and we’re excited to get the chance to share it with some folks from Hollywood.”

Woodlawn Ave. Diaz filled a basket with several meat products, transferred them to a cloth bag and then covered the items with a loaf of bread and a package of bagels before leaving the store. An employee stopped him and told him to place his hands behind his back, at which point Diaz dropped his bag and ran across Sherwood Road to Memorial Park before being caught by police. Diaz said he entered the store to deposit a check at the TCF Bank and then decided to pick up dinner. Knowing that the check wouldn’t clear for a couple days, he knew he could not pay for the merchandise, he said, and therefore left the store without paying.

Summer learning for everyone in D-105 District 105 ranks among the top districts in the country based on the progress students make in reading and math from the beginning to the end of each school year.

However, in a district study conducted in 2010, we found that our student gains in math and reading during the school year were being offset by significant summer losses in reading and math achievement. These losses COMMUNITY affected students of all VOICE demographic and achievement backgrounds. Summer Glenn learning loss results in the Schlichting loss of precious instructional time and resources in the fall as teachers delay the introduction of new concepts and skills because they must help students regain previous achievement levels.

Based on our District 105 findings about summer learning loss, the district cut back the traditional summer school program which focused on remediation and implemented the Summer Connect Program in 2011. The Summer Connect Program is a unique summer learning approach offered to District 105 students, regardless of age or achievement levels.

The program is designed to keep students involved with math and reading throughout the summer by pairing them with a District 105 teacher who facilitates individualized learning activities. Teachers connect with their students through technology to guide their selection of appropriate books, and monitor their reading logs and progress on the online instructional math program. The Connect teachers also meet with their students face-to-face seven to nine times over the summer to review the overall learning experience. A total of 460 students and 30 educators will participate in the program this summer, which began June 10 and ends Aug. 9.

The results from our changes in summer programming and districtwide attention to summer learning loss have been impressive. In the first two years of implementation, we have realized about 25 percent reduction in the number of students who experience summer learning loss as measured by their spring and fall assessments. These exciting gains promise to boost overall student math and reading achievement.

“Seeing all of the people there, you’re talking to the people and they all have a like mind about cars,” said Kernan, who is a member of the Sports Car Club of America. “You get to see all the different cars, especially the older ones. I like the sports cars, for the most part, but also the hot rods.”

Rovella has had an interest in cars since he was young when he used to fix them with his dad. Since 1983, he has owned an auto repair business called The Riverside Garage with Larry Czerwinski.

There is more to Cruise Nights than just cars, Rovella said. Event organizers are working to create a special section for people who bring their Model T cars.

The Oak Park-based Animal Care League also will bring dogs for adoption, said Chris Meyer, off-site adoptions manager for the organization. The Animal Care

League has participated in previous Cruise Nights.

Chew Chew Café, 33 E. Burlington St., will set up an area outside across the street from its site to sell food, owner Scott Zimmer said. Tents and a grill will be set up, and

outdoor tables will be available.

“The nice thing about Riverside is that we get some of the rarest cars here,” Rovella said. “It’s nice to see the wide diversity of cars that we have.”

At Maple Medical Center we have assembled a team of medical experts to provide the best medical care to our patients.

RIVERSIDE – As diverse a community as Riverside is, virtually everyone milling about town Thursday evening will have one thing on their minds: cars.

The Riverside Chamber of Commerce will offer its first Cruise Night of 2013 on Thursday. Burlington Street will be closed off east of Longcommon Road from 6 to 9 p.m. as car enthusiasts show off their prized possessions.

“It’s a nice night,” said Rick Rovella, who organizes the Cruise Nights and Car Show for the Chamber. “We usually get about 130 cars the first night. We can actually get up to 160 cars, but usually it’s about 130 cars.”

The other Cruise Nights this year will be from 6 to 9 p.m. July 11, and Aug. 8, Riverside Village Clerk Cathy Haley said. The annual car

show, which closes the car season in the village, will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sept. 29, she said.

The Cruise Nights are less formal than is the Car Show, Rovella said. A few trophies are given out at each Cruise Night event, and people who bring their cars to be shown don’t pay anything to participate, he said.

The car show is a more structured event, Rovella said. There is a 100-point judging system used to evaluate the cars, and nearly 100 trophies are given out in numerous categories. There also is an entrance fee to participate, Rovella said.

Bill Kernan has been showing off his 1967 Sunbeam Alpine at Cruise Nights since they began in 2005. Kernan said he helped start the event with Rovella when he served as a member of the Riverside Economic Development Commission.

Nonprofit group helps form home improvement firm for seniors

By JERRY MOORE jmoore@shawmedia.com BROOKFIELD – The flooding that struck the western suburbs in April caused major problems for many property owners.

It also created opportunities for scam artists posing as home improvement contractors to take advantage of people who don’t know better.

Among the most vulnerable to this kind of fraud are senior citizens.

This is one of the reasons that officials with Cantata Adult Life Services in Brookfield joined with two other nonprofit organizations to form PrimeLife Home Improvement. The firm specializes in providing reliable and trusted handymen and contractors to seniors who wish to remain living in their homes, said Amy Selle, Cantata’s director of marketing.

“PrimeLife offers handyman services, [from tasks] that are very simple, to actual renovation work,” Selle said.

Cantata worked with the groups Chicagoland Methodist Senior Services and Housing

Cantata Adult Life Services in Brookfield was one of three nonprofit groups to form PrimeLIfe to provide honest and trusted contractors to seniors when needed.

Opportunities & Maintenance for the Elderly to form PrimeLife Home Improvement, Selle said. Through this nonprofit organization, seniors can find individuals to perform smaller repair or maintenance jobs to large-scale renovation projects, she said.

Chris Roller, CEO of PrimeLife Home Improvement, said the firm has three employees and access to about 30 subcontractors. The goal is to hire more employees in the future and continue expanding its base of vendors.

“These three groups,

which had a history of providing handyman and small home repair services, saw a need for a firm that could also do some of the larger work,” Roller said. “A big part of what we do is to provide a real trustworthy source of home improvement.”

PrimeLife Home Improvement conducts background

and drug tests on potential employees and subcontractors, Roller said. People who want to work for the firm also must go through customer service and sensitivity training, he said.

PrimeLife Home Improvement strives to ensure that its employees and subcontractors are competent in their trade as well as adept at dealing with seniors, Roller said.

Senior citizens often have unique needs, and officials at the groups that started the firm have the background to understand what skills are required to handle different situations, he said.

“It’s such an advantage for us to be able to draw on the experience of the founders,” Roller said.

PrimeLife Home Improvement is governed by a board of directors, whose members represent the three founding organizations, Roller said. As a nonprofit organization, the firm can focus on more than just chasing money, he said.

Officials with PrimeLife Home Improvement are working to build clients and vendors in Cook County and the collar counties, Selle said. For information on the firm, call 708-387-1055.

Donley’s offers kids Wild West fun

By JAMI KUNZER jkunzer@shawmedia.com Children won’t be playing with their thumbs at Donley’s Wild West Town, unless they have a slingshot or rope in their hands. No handheld game devices necessary.

“What we find is when they come here, it is all forgotten, the technology and everything,” said Randy Donley, who runs the business along with his brother, Mike, and parents, Larry and Helene, Berwyn natives. “They get right into it.”

“It” includes gold panning, slingshot shooting, cowboy-style roping lessons, kid-powered handcars, venture canoeing, a live action Wild West Show, a vintage carousel from 1951, the Runaway Mine Cars roller coaster, pony rides, a petting zoo and the C.P. Huntington Train, among other attractions.

“The most important thing we try to highlight is this is a park for kids,” Donley said.

“They always get lost in the big parks and intimidated. …

The little kids absolutely love it here. They find this enjoyable and fascinating. I hear all the time when parents are taking their kids out of the park, ‘No, we want to stay. We want to go back on the train.’”

Recently opened for the season, Donley’s has been entertaining families, especially children younger than age 12, since 1974. It traces back to when Larry Donley owned a gas station in Berwyn, and built a 1919 Model T Ford from used auto parts to display outside the station to attract customers. That car was the beginning of the family’s passion for antiques, and led to creating the park to house their burgeoning number of collectibles.

As their collections grew, they built the Wild West Town, the Old West Saloon and Steakhouse and Village Hall Banquets, which provides a wedding venue and McHenry County’s largest dance floor.

They also founded Donley’s Auction Services.

The amusement park draws visitors from all over, with the Donleys promoting it as a day or weekend trip, especially for those living within a 60-mile radius.

Donley’s Wild West Town Where: Route 20 and South Union Road, three miles south of Union at 8512 S. Union Road Hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily through Aug. 23, and Saturdays and Sundays, Aug. 24 to Oct. 27 Admission: $16 for ages 3 and older; 815-923-9000, www.wildwesttown.com

“The most important thing we try to highlight is this is a park for kids. They always get lost in the big parks and intimidated. …

The little kids absolutely love it here. They find this enjoyable and fascinating.”

Randy Donley of Donley’s Wild West Town

“There’s plenty to do here for several hours, have lunch or dinner, and they’re on their way,” Randy Donley said.

Or they could take in other attractions, such as the nearby Illinois Railway Museum and the McHenry County Historical Society Museum.

Children often come dressed in cowboy and cowgirl costumes, prompting the park to host daily costume contests this season, he said, noting kids karaoke in the saloon has become a big hit for young crooners.

The family’s antiques are rated among the finest in the country, and include cowboy memorabilia, such as woolly chaps, gun belts, guns, spurs, lariats and boots. Others include death masks of outlaws’ faces, tools for mining gold and silver, Civil War weapons and Larry Donley’s music box and phonograph collection. The Charles Edison Foundation judged it one of the finest Edisonia displays in the U.S.

Note to readers Mystery Diner will return next week.

Patrick Kelly, a Brookfield native and Nazareth alumnus, earned a victory on the mound during Grand Valley State’s College World Series appearance in the spring.

World Series start

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com CARY, N.C. – It’s a good sign when the biggest start of your career becomes just another game.

Nazareth graduate and Brookfield native Patrick Kelly had that feeling at the Division II College World Series on May 29. Kelly came up in the clutch with a quality start and a victory.

The Grand Valley State redshirt freshman started in the Lakers’ third game of the CWS at USA Baseball’s National Training Complex in Cary,

Kelly’s career highlights • Three-year varsity player at Nazareth • GLIAC Freshman of the Year • All-GLIAC second team • 5-1 record, 1.75 ERA in seven GLIAC starts

N.C. Kelly pitched seven innings and allowed three runs in a 10-3 win in an elimination game of the double-elimination tournament.

The Lakers finished 3-2 at the tournament, coming up

one win short of the final before losing to eventual champion Tampa.

“At first I was a little nervous, but once I settled down I realized it was just another game,” Kelly said. “It was a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

It was really special to be able to go down there, especially as a freshman.”

Kelly called it the biggest start of his career. Starting on a stage that big didn’t seem likely just a year ago.

After redshirting his first year on campus, Kelly had an uphill battle to receive consistent playing time for the

Former Nazareth star, Brookfield native earns ‘once-in-a-lifetime’ win

Lakers. He did so in a big way and was named Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletics Conference Freshman of the Year thanks to a 2.20 ERA and an 8-3 record.

“At the beginning of last year as a red shirt, I knew I had to earn my spot,” Kelly said. “I earned my spot as that No. 3 guy. Being in the College World Series as the No. 3 was a dream come true.”

Kelly, a business and finance major, was a control pitcher for the Lakers. He walked just nine batters in 77.2 innings this season.

He was a part of the 2011

Nazareth team that took fourth place in Class 3A and said playing with the Roadrunners under coach Lee Milano helped prepare him for college success. The tough schedule, winning tradition and family atmosphere in the Nazareth program helped Kelly at the next level.

“Being in those big games in high school and throwing helped to be prepared for a biggame mentally,” Kelly said.

“I’m still best friends with half the team. During high school, we always had dinner at coach’s house before games.

We were always together.”

Matthew Piechalak – mpiechalak@shawmedia.com

Riverside Brookfield star Emily Hastings will take her big bat to Southern Illinois University-Edwardsville.

ALL-AREA MVP: EMILY HASTINGS

Powered by the past

By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com RIVERSIDE – At the beginning of the season, Emily Hastings was trying to match the production of the recent run of talented Riverside Brookfield hitters.

Mission accomplished.

Hastings hit .593 to pace the RB offense and become the latest in a line of Bulldog hitters with mind-blowing numbers.

Despite the high average, she still had regrets when the sea-

Hastings’ favorites Food: Spaghetti Movie: “Titanic” Music: Macklemore Subject: English TV show: “How I Met Your Mother” son ended.

“I was upset because I was so close to .600,” Hastings said. “It came down to the last game.”

Hastings didn’t get her batting average into the strato-

sphere by running out infield singles or slap-hitting. The senior catcher hit for power, racking up nine home runs and 10 doubles in 31 games.

Last year, Kiley Rusen, currently playing for Valdosta State, hit .549, and Becky Mantel, an all-freshman team pick in the Big South for Radford this spring, hit .460 with 30 extra base hits. Hastings was tasked with filling most of the void those two left behind.

“They had such a great impact,” Hastings said. “Hitting

Former RB greats motivate Hastings to hit near .600 average, 9 home runs

close to .600 is the best I could do.”

Through the first 12 games of the season, she was hitting over .700, but slumped only by relative standards to the .593 mark. A 2-for-4 day would drop her batting average, but she didn’t approach it that way.

“I just stay relaxed and look for a spot to hit it,” Hastings said. “If you’re tense, you’re not going to do anything.”

She will continue her career at Southern Illinois

University-Edwardsville and plans to enter the school’s nursing program. Even with all that to look forward to, when her four-year Bulldog career ended, Hastings could only look back and wish she could do it again.

“I was really upset when it ended,” she said. “That last game was really hard because I’m never going to play softball in high school again. It hit me harder than graduating high school.

“It went by so fast.”

School: Fenwick Year: Junior The Friars’ leadoff hitter hit .402 with 19 RBIs and 28 runs this season.

Cairo set the table for the Fenwick offense and was named all-conference in the rugged East Suburban Catholic Conference.

Stefanie D’Anna School: Lyons Township Year: Junior LT’s second baseman emerged as a key player for the Lions. D’Anna’s slap-hitting allowed her to hit .352 with 23 runs scored. She also played a solid second base for the Lions.

Galasso is a fouryear starter for the Mustangs and posted a 2.90 ERA this season while helping Morton to a regional title. She wasn’t an overpowering pitcher but had good enough control to keep the opposition off balance. She will continue her career at Morton College.

Ghuneim was an all-conference performer for the Mustangs and a clutch bat in the middle of the order.

The junior split her time between second and third base this season while hitting .384 with a .538 onbase percentage and 35 RBIs.

Haberkorn was Nazareth’s top pitcher and was an all-conference selection in the ESCC. In the circle, she had a 3.24 ERA with 151 strikeouts in 153.1 innings. She also was a key bat for the Roadrunners, hitting .343 with 18 extra base hits, including eight triples and a teambest 35 RBIs.

School: Riverside Brookfield Year: Senior Hastings put up eye-popping offensive numbers this season. The Bulldogs’ backstop hit .593 and didn’t do it inexpensively.

The SIU-Edwardsville recruit blasted nine home runs and had 10 doubles. She finished the season with 37 RBIs and 33 runs scored.

King has been a key cog in the Morton softball program since she stepped on campus. She was a four-year starter at shortstop and captained the team this spring. King hit .377 with a .534 on-base percentage and 33 runs scored.

Stepping into the role of top pitcher in place of her older sister, Alyssa, Ashley Koziol filled in as an effective two-way player.

Koziol hit .344 with 15 extra base hits and had a 3.00 ERA on the mound with 134 strikeouts against 26 walks in 121.2 innings.

Morrissey was one of the pleasant surprises for LT. The junior catcher hit below .200 last season but became one of the Lions’ top hitters and fielders this spring.

She hit .404 and became a leader for the young Lions.

Mrozek was a twoway player for the Friars but thrived offensively. She hit .449 with 20 extra base hits, seven home runs, 34 RBIs and 26 runs scored en route to earning all-conference honors in the ESCC.

The three-year starter had another standout season for the sectional-winning Friars. Parenti hit .336 with 26 RBIs and 28 runs scored while playing shortstop.

Ritacco hit the ground running for the Roadrunners.

The freshman led Nazareth with a .373 batting average and 34 runs scored. She also had 12 extra base hits and 23 RBIs in his first year of high school.

School: Riverside Brookfield Year: Senior Schander provided key hits throughout the spring and finished with a .495 batting average. She tallied 25 RBIs and 27 runs scored for the Bulldogs.

Vitek, Straub named Nazareth athletes of the year SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LA GRANGE PARK – At its annual awards assembly, Nazareth Academy athletic director Duane Buturusis announced the winners of the school’s highest student-athlete honors.

Male Athlete of the Year: Patrick Vitek Patrick Vitek is a twosport athlete at Nazareth, excelling in football and wrestling. In the competitive East Suburban Catholic Conference, Vitek was named an all-conference player and Defensive Lineman of the Year.

He has committed to play football for Saint Joseph’s College in Indiana.

“Vitek is also largely responsible for putting the Nazareth wrestling program on the map,” Buturusis said in a news release.

Vitek earned ESCC, IHSA regional and sectional titles at 195 pounds. He finished his wrestling career fourth in state.

Female Athlete of the Year: Alysa Straub Alysa Straub of Burr Ridge has played varsity girls tennis all four years at Nazareth, qualifying for state multiple times. In 2012, Straub, along with her partner Lexie Petrovic, finished top eight in state in doubles. Straub also is an ESCC medalist and member of the all-state team. She has received a scholarship to play tennis at the University of

Wisconsin-Milwaukee, a Division I program.

Male Scholar-Athlete of the Year: Nicholas Murphy Nicholas Murphy of La Grange Park played football and competed as part of Nazareth’s track and field team, with which he earned ESCC medals in the 200-meter dash, the 4x200 relay and 4x100 relay, for which he also is an IHSA sectional medalist.

Murphy also managed five AP courses and ranked third in the Class of 2013.

“Nick has always been humble and deflects any personal accolades to his teammates,” said Tim Racki, Nazareth dean of students and head football coach. “In the same way, he would use his academic success and give of

himself to assist and tutor his teammates.”

Murphy will continue as a scholar-athlete at University of Chicago.

Female Scholar-Athlete of the Year: Taylor Van Daff Taylor Van Daff of Westchester was already a twosport athlete in cross country and track when she decided to add a sport her senior year.

“It speaks to her courage and determination that she chose the male-dominated sport of wrestling and made it onto the varsity squad,” Buturusis said.

Not only did she take home a regional medal, as an A-honor roll student, she tutored teammates before practices, adding value to the team beyond the wrestling mat.

Nazareth selected Nicholas Murphy (left) and Taylor Van Daff as the male and female scholar-athletes of the year.

Van Daff will attend Vanderbilt University this fall.

In addition to the top honorees, Nazareth Academy also honored East Suburban Catholic Conference Scholar-Athletes for 20122013: Edward Ashe, Madeline Bonaguro, Natalie Crisanti (Brookfield), Justyna Falat, Mary Figura, John Karas (Western Springs), Bridget Kowalczyk, Joseph

Mara (Western Springs), Alison Maslar-Donar, Kelly McGarry, Andrew Minik (Western Springs), Nicole Moore (Westchester), Nicholas Murphy (La Grange Park), Brian Prendergast (La Grange Park), Matt Ramsey, Daniel Saladino (La Grange), Mike Stromberg, Sarah Swade (Western Springs) and Taylor Van Daff (Westchester).

Local rugby players lead Bulls to third-place state trophy SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA The West Suburban Bulls high school rugby club had two teams competing in the Illinois Youth Rugby Association State championships May 27 in Lemont.

The Bulls feature players from Lyons Township, Hinsdale Central, Nazareth and Riverside Brookfield.

The varsity squad topped Elgin, 28-17, for third place in Tier 3. The Bulls came out firing and continuously overwhelmed Elgin’s defense. Captain Matt Ramsey of Nazareth ran in the first score outpacing Elgin’s defense. He then converted his own try for an early 7-0 lead.

Senior forwards Tim Delacey of LT and Peter Nelson of

Central continuously would pressure Elgin with hardcharging runs requiring several defenders to bring them down. Tries also would be scored by LT’s Alex Fischer and Piers Clarke. The Bulls’ last score saw Hinsdale Central’s Cameron Page pass the ball weak side off a Bulls scrum to LT sprinter Quentin Sanchez who would outrun all El-

gin’s defenders for a 60 meter score. Ramsey would convert to bringing the Bulls tally to 28.

The frosh/soph team played Brother Rice for the state title. Brother Rice was undefeated in the regular season, while the Bulls’ only loss was to Brother Rice in an earlier season match.

Whether you’re planning to host outdoor festivities with friends or just firing up the grill with the family, a few changes can liven up your outdoor space and add value to your home.

Clear it off: Remove all items from the area.

This includes furniture, planters and even the weathered layer of grime that sits atop the wood. Use a power washer to remove any mildew and debris. If the stain is faded or wearing away, consider re-staining the wood.

Wood exposed to the outdoor elements should be coated with an oil-based finish, never a latex or acrylic paint.

Dress it up: Repaint drab furniture with outdoor pillows and cushions. Change up the layout. By moving furniture into a more square or circular shape, you’ll increase conversations.

If a focal point exists, such as a fire pit or great view, arrange furniture to face that.

Lighten up: Many outdoor gatherings can carry on past sunset, so lighting your deck area is important. Hanging lanterns in trees creates a fun, party feel.

Beware wasted ‘vampire power’ Even when they’re turned off, electrical devices draw power as long as they’re plugged in. “Vampire power” or “standby power” refers to the electricity wasted in this manner.

In developed countries, standby power probably accounts for 5 to 10 percent of residential energy use, according to the Lawrence Berkeley national Laboratory.

Trendy partitions Many of today’s top home decorating trends are relatively easy to recreate, and will add resale value to the homes. one new trend is temporary partitions between the living space and kitchen, according to pedro Lima, an interior design instructor at the art Institute of new York City and owner of pedro Lima Interiors.

These partitions can be of varying heights, whether it’s a two-way fireplace or modern book shelving.

The look of wood is very big in ceramic tiling. This Aparici distressed-wood-look ceramic floor even had an authentic texture. SHnS pHoToS BY paTRICIa SHERIDan

Hip squares New tiles hitting the marketplace

By Patricia Sheridan Scripps Howard news Service

What could be new about something that has been around for more than 4,000 years?

When it comes to tile, a lot.

During Coverings 2013, the largest tile-and-stone trade expo in the country, the buzz was about baking technology, science and great design into modern ceramic tile.

Held in Atlanta’s Georgia World Congress Center last month, the expo featured 900 exhibitors from more than 50 countries.

“Technology has been one of the tile industry’s inspirations,” said Ryan Fasan, tile-and-stone consultant for Tiles of Spain.

Innovations over the past several years have included superthin, extremely light tile that can be applied to cabinets or counters, very thick and anti-slip tile that can be used on uneven outdoor surfaces, and tile that can resist wide temperature fluctuations. Antibacterial tile is a smart option for bathrooms, hospitals, schools or any public place. Some tile even cleans the air and itself.

Digital inkjet printing revolutionized the manufacturing of ceramic and porcelain tile.

“One of the great things about this process is we can reproduce the look of stones that are extinct or which are not environmentally

responsible to harvest,” Fasan explained.

Tile makers in Spain, Italy, Mexico and beyond are embracing environmentally friendly practices and adopting the Tile Council of North America’s Green Squared certification for porcelain tile as the industry’s watermark for sustainable practices. Since tile is a natural product made of pyrolized red or white clay, it’s the grout, sealants, adhesives, and manufacturing and installation processes that are constantly being evaluated in terms of the environment.

Wood is trendy The biggest style trend now is the look of wood, with reclaimed wood being a favorite for wall and floor tiles. Like pre-washed jeans, it’s not enough to imitate natural materials. They must also have a time-worn patina.

Florida Tiles showed Magnolia, a printed wood look that comes in a variety of colors.

Fioranese’s Old Wood series is

nearly indistinguishable from the real thing; even wood’s texture is replicated. Aparici, which does great inkjet designs, showed several of its Sonar collection of ceramic wood-flooring options together for an impressive display. Viva Made’s Street collection of ceramic planks was an urban-inspired design. For a very dramatic effect, Over by Cerdomus combines black and white wood-style tile planking. The Maderia Collection by Keraben was another example of tile imitating wood that would be perfect for mudrooms and kitchens.

Del Conca and Cisa Ceramiche are just two companies that have re-created the look of petrified wood on tile. Del Conca, an Italian manufacturer, is building a

plant in Tennessee to produce porcelain stoneware tile. Del Conca Fast is a high-tech tile installed without joints, adhesives or grout. It’s basically a floating ceramic floor.

Creating surfaces Fiandre’s large-format, manmade Precious Stone collection uses the best of inkjet printing to create porcelain wall panels that are as artistic as they are architectural. And Emil Ceramica introduced Stone Box. Each box has 36 tiles representing different stones such as marble, granite, onyx, etc., but the color palette is the same.

“We are seeing large tiles trending in both matte and polished finishes,” said David Lang, vice president of Emil America.

The mother and son team make up Higgins Glass Studio, 33 E. Quincy, entrusted to the Wimmers to carry on the art crafted by their long time mentors, Fran and Michael Higgins, who began the company in 1948.

Louise and Jonathan agree that it was Fran’s ideas and Michael’s energy and ingenuity that led these two huge talents to start their work out if their Chicago apartment in 1948.

Over the years their art sold in such major retailers as Marshall Field’s, Georg Jensen and Bullocks Wilshire, the very high end store in the California based department store chain.

In 1966, the Higgins decided to return to private studio work and set up their offices in Riverside. The website notes that “here they were free to set their own goals, meet their own standards and design in the direction their hearts and minds led them.”

There’s a lot of history in Higgins, and the Wimmers are proud of their work and the company.
