EP Scholastic Bowl readies for state tournament

By SARAH FORD For Shaw Media

The EP Scholastic Bowl team will be heading to the Masonic Class 1A State Tournament this weekend after their victory at the 2022 Illinois Masonic Academic Bowl in Prophetstown on Saturday, Feb. 19.

Out of six schools, they took the top spot at the Masonic 1A Sectional Championship last weekend. The roster was a combination of varsity and junior varsity members.

EP won all five matches against Amboy, Morrison, Fulton, Ashton-Franklin Center and Annawan.

Prizes were medals for each team member, a plaque and $400 for the team.

The varsity team had seven wins and

six losses this season, and junior varsity had five wins and three losses. They’ll be heading to Bloomington High School to compete on Saturday, March 5. The roster at state will consist of 10 members coming from both varsity and junior varsity teams.

The teams will play five matches before lunch, and if they’re in the top two of the pool they’ll play two more matches in the afternoon, vying for the top four places for the Masonic State championship.

The team will receive $100 for participating in the state match.

“The scholastic bowl teams have been working very hard this year to improve and hone their skills since the COVID-19 shutdown,” coach Steve Stoner said. “The addition of a two-coach sponsorship allows

us to spread our time equally among the two teams and to ensure that the players can develop into tactful and skilled teams. We would like to thank all our players for the hard work they have put in, especially those that compete in multiple IHSA sanctioned sports.”

The EP Scholastic Bowl team includes manager Tommy Addington, freshmen Jeff Chastain, Dena Cox, Zach Murphy, Matthew Quimby, Max Temple, Jolene Wells and Robert Winters and sophomore Dakota Schick on the junior varsity team.

The varsity roster consists of juniors David Egan, Joey Lindsay, Mekenzie Loechel, Emma Megli, Ryan Roman, James Smith and Ally Wisely.

Best of luck at state!

Hillsdale plans for villagewide spring and fall cleanups

By SARAH FORD For Shaw Media

Hillsdale will have two villagewide cleanup days this year, the board decided at its meeting Feb. 22. The aim is to have them in April and October, with dates to be set with Conrad Disposal.

The board hopes residents will be encouraged to clean up their properties by offering options for waste disposal.

Information will be sent out with the sewer bills, with details on the cleanup days, e-waste day, brush pickup, appliance and tire disposal information and abandoned vehicle removal.

Finance chairperson Joni Reiss discussed the budget and explained the proposed changes for the new budget, which will be voted on at the March meeting. She mentioned the possibility of adding a tennis and pickleball court to Village Park, with trust-

ees supportive of the idea.

Also discussed was the availability of permits this spring to allow neighborhood vehicles on streets. The vehicle will need to be inspected and approved by Rock Island County Sheriff’s Department officers, including proof of insurance, valid driver’s license and a complete safety inspection.

Instructions for the permitting process will be posted on the electronic message center in the spring.

The board also discussed where to place the “Hillsdale Welcomes You” sign, with a piece of village-owned property suggested as a possibility. The new location will be voted on at the March meeting. The board also approved a $250 donation to the Riverdale Education Foundation scholarship drive and agreed to get quotes for villagewide mowing, as well as the Docia Street levy and lagoon mowing, which needs special equipment because of the angle.

Dog park project costs increase due to inflation

By JERRY LINDSEY MADC President

Morrison has a history of committed volunteers who work for improvements needed within the community.

Volunteers were invited by the Morrison Area Development Corporation to partake in a program designed by Western Illinois University that identified and initiated action plans for designated community enhancements. Out of that early 2018 kickoff gathering, a proactive group of volunteers, later to be known as “On The Move,” designated a new dog park as an enhancement that the community would appreciate and use.

Thus, the “Bark Park” initiative began.

The creative individuals of “On The Move” researched and finalized a plan at an estimated cost of $50,000. This plan included collaboration with the city to use the abandoned area that previously was used as the high school baseball field on Norrish Road. It became a community enhancement project that would provide another attractive draw for families considering a move into Morrison.

The fundraising began with creative ideas implemented. Donors from

The “On The Move” Bark Park that originally was estimated to cost $50,000 is now inflated to $75,000 because of factors that accompanied the pandemic. local organizations and individuals who owned pets recognized the convenience of a dog park and felt excited about contributing. As funds allowed, construction projects began within the area designated and plans were finalized as the $50,000 goal was coming into realization.

Then along came COVID-19 and the inflationary factor that accompanied the pandemic and the project that was sold as a $50,000 investment is now inflated to $75,000 without any changes to the design, desire and purpose. As the pandemic shows signs of remis-

sion, the renewal of activity to complete the dog park takes on a new urgency as the labor and materials need to be purchased before additional factors interrupt the project.

“On The Move” chairman Karla Burn noted, “This is not just a dog park! It’s another step in improving the amenities that draw families to Morrison to live.”

Donations still can be made at TBK Bank, 211 W. Main St., on the Morrison Lions Club Facebook page, or the “On The Move” with Parks and Rec Facebook page.

COUNTY NEWS

Whiteside County makes plans for spending its COVID-19 millions

By KATHLEEN SCHULTZ kschultz@shawmedia.com

Whiteside County has decided what to do with the $10.7 million it received in COVID-19 relief money from the American Rescue Plan Act. The board agreed to put $5 million aside for county projects, to devote $3 million to help bring broadband to underserved rural areas, and to provide $2 million in grants directly to businesses, nonprofits and individuals, including farmers, who qualify.

Only about half of the total funding is in hand, but officials expect the rest of the money to arrive within the next few months, county Administrator Joel Horn said.

Separately, the Whiteside County Health Department was allocated a little over $9 million in COVID-19 grants from a variety of state and federal sources; all but $1.6 million is in hand.

County projects: $5 million

Of the $5 million designated for county projects, $950,000 already is earmarked, including $200,000 to help pay for a new surveillance system for the complex that includes the courthouse, jail and sheriff’s department.

That’s slightly less than half of the approved cost of up to $410,000 for the system. The rest of the money needed was included in the sheriff department’s budget.

The $750,000 left primarily is being used to upgrade audiovisual technology in the courtrooms and boardrooms, in large part to facilitate remote hearings and proceedings, Horn said Other than that, no decisions have been made on how the county will spend the remaining $4 million, but options include using some of it to remodel and replace HVAC at the Whiteside County Health Department Community Health Clinic in Rock Falls, and remodeling work at the courthouse in Morrison, including barriers in offices that deal with the public.

Broadband expansion: $3 million

The county is in the beginning stages of planning where and how to bring high-speed internet to rural areas in need, Horn said.

To that end, the state announced Tuesday that Whiteside County is among six counties or communities that applied for and was chosen to participate in the Accelerate Illinois Broadband Infrastructure Program.

It’s a 14-week intensive training program that will help off icia ls develop broadband plans “responsive to their unique local needs and position them to effectively leverage newly available state and federal broadband infrastructure funding,” it

RNs Joyl Wiseley, left, and Marcia Widolff said they had a really good turnout at the Whiteside County Health Department mobile vaccination clinic during National Night Out on Friday, Aug. 6, 2021, at Drives Park in Fulton. The mobile unit was purchased using federal COVID-19 relief money. Of the $3.4 million in ARPA money, more than $2.7 million was designated for personnel expenses, and $645,000 for clinic expansion. said in a news release.

In December, Whiteside County established the Whiteside County Accelerate Steering team, which is working with other area agencies on broadband planning and development.

It soon will be rolling out a survey as part of Accelerate Illinois asking residents for help determining exactly which parts of the county should be targeted.

The state does have maps of areas in need, but they are not as accurate as they could be, and so residents will be strongly encouraged to fill out the survey, Horn said.

The county’s $3 million in COVID-19 relief funds is a drop in the bucket when it comes to the total cost to install internet or upgrade its broadband capabilities, so that money will be used to leverage more money, in the form of matching grants, Horn said.

The whole process of working with the state and area partner agencies to stitch together a cohesive system is very involved, Horn said, but “hopefully at the end of the day we move forward with a plan to provide high-speed internet to all underserved areas of the county.”

Business grants: $2 million

The county also is in the process of putting applications online for individuals, businesses and nonprofits that can demonstrate the impact COVID-19 has had on their operations, and the plans, called “projects” on the application, that they have to recover.

The applications should be available on the county’s website sometime next week, Horn said.

The county is hiring the accounting firm Wipfli, which will verify an applicant’s eligibility.

County officials then will set up a conference to discuss the applicant’s project and any federal reporting requirements the applicant needs to meet.

Once those steps are done, the project will be presented to the county board for approval.

The details

Grants will be available to people or businesses either physically in Whiteside County or whose services directly benefit county residents.

They must have fewer than 500 employees and have been in operation in the county since at least Feb. 15, 2020. They cannot be in default with the IRS, the state or the county, or in bankruptcy.

They will be asked to demonstrate the significant expenses or disruptions caused by COVID-19.

Preference will be given to businesses that were greatly impacted by the pandemic, such as bars and restaurants, retail shops, entertainment or performing arts outlets and indoor recreation or health and fitness providers.

The app licant deter mines the amount of money needed; the county will have the final say in how much is granted.

There are federal rules dictating

what the money can and can’t be used for.

For example, a grant can’t simply be used to replenish cash reserves; there must be a detailed plan submitted outlining how an applicant will use the money to help recover COVID-19-related losses.

“That’s why we’re engaging with Wiplfi, to assess the eligibility of each project,” Horn said.

There is no stipulation on the amount an applicant can request.

“What do you need to recover? You know better than me what your business needs,” he said Horn is not sure how long the money will last. The businesses has until the end of December 2024 to incur eligible costs. There’s a two-year timeline, set by the federal government, to apply.

“We have until the end of 2024 to obligate the funds (or until all $2 million is accounted for) and until the end of 2026 to spend them all.”

He’s already received inquiries from about 10 businesses, Horn said.

Those interested in applying can go to home.treasury.gov/policy-issues/ cares/state-and-local-governments for more information on the federal rules and regulations.

County CARES Act funding

The county also received $823,823 in funding from the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, all but about $10,000 of which was spent on first responder pay, Horn said.

The rest paid for PPE, disinfectant, Zoom subscriptions, etc., he said.

Whiteside County Health Department

The $9,080,525 the Health Department has garnered has come from many sources. While the bulk was from the ARPA and CARES Act, some also came from the Illinois Department of Public Health and even a small grant, $50,000, from the Illinois Children’s Health Care Foundation.

More than $4.3 million was CARES Act funding, the bulk of which was used on personnel, supplies and equipment, and on expanding the departments ability to test, monitor and suppress COVID-19.

In addition, almost $312,000 was used to buy a mobile health care van, used to bring vaccines to people at various sites around the county.

Of the $3.4 million in ARPA money, more than $2.7 million was designated for personnel expenses, and $645,000 for clinic expansion.

The IDPH kicked in more than $850,000, which was used for vaccinations and virus prevention efforts.

That $50,000 foundation grant was used to buy dental equipment and supplies.

PORT BYRON

Board learns work will start back up on Route 84

By SARAH FORD For Shaw Media

Work on the delayed Route 84 sidewalk and water main replacement project is expected to start back up this week, the Port Byron board learned at their meeting Tuesday, Feb. 22.

Jared Fluhr with engineering firm MSA Professional Services provided an update on the project that was paused for winter. Contractor Miller Trucking & Excavating will be working from 94th Avenue N to 11th Street now that temperatures are above freezing. Fluhr estimated eight more weeks of work before completion, with removals for the utility companies as the first step.

The board discussed whether to levy up to $1,425 in liquidated damages per day against Miller for the delays

but tabled any action until the March meetings, when Fluhr will provide an official time extension request and formal recommendations. “MSA oversees it, but we have no control over their schedule. We can’t tell a contractor how to do their job,” Fluhr said of the delays. The board approved a change order to pay Miller Trucking $75,980 for additional materials, and two payments to MSA totaling $60,500 for additional engineering costs.

Fluhr also updated the board on a downtown parking concept study to convert the diagonal parking to parallel spaces. The design needs to meet certain IDOT criteria, such as offering flex parking and bump-outs. He added that a new possible parking lot at the bank could offset the loss of parking on Main Street. Mayor Barb Cray said she

received pushback on the idea, though said the downtown traffic flow is challenging. “It wouldn’t be good for economic development,” she said of parallel parking.

Fluhr also reported that an ongoing water study is in its final stages. Once completed, the village can use it to qualify for loans. Work also is ongoing for the unsewered community grant project that could bring sewer lines to neighborhoods on the northern end of town, with the village awarded an additional $8,500 for initial planning, such as researching right of ways and properties.

The board also approved a $47,800 payment to MSA for water service inventory on lead lines, which is mandated by the state of Illinois. They approved payment of $674.86 to Grif-

fith’s Auto for dump truck brake repairs, approved the purchase of a John Deere utility tractor/mower from River Valley Turf for the wastewater treatment plant at a cost of $23,350, and approved a $164,755 bid by Pittsburg Tank & Tower Group for interior and exterior recoating of the water tower, with American Recovery Act funds to be used for the summer project.

Trustee Gerry Meade reported that 36 residents showed up to the recent comprehensive plan workshop to discuss projects and go through mapping exercises. Cray also invited the community to sign up for a United Way reading program that’s seeking adult readers for kids in grades 1-3, after reading proficiency levels have dropped from 61% to 30% due to the pandemic.

The newest addition promotes health and fitness, with a made-forkids bench press, stationary bike, and a eliptical machine. Preschool staffers came up with the idea and secured a grant to expand the creative center.

School employees helped put the new building together.

Tiny Town was established in the former wrestling room in the fall of 2019, using grants and school funds to complete the vision of now-retired preschool coordinator Kathy Young. The colorful room includes a diner, medical clinic, salon, market, fire station, house, construction area and a camper by a realistic lakeside mural and repurposed Christmas trees.

His teams won 11 regional tournaments and eight conference championships. Borgman said basketball has been good to me and I leave the coaching aspect with many great memories.

Albany Fire Chief Warden Welch took his last ride atop a fire truck. Following funeral services at the Albany Methodist Church, Welch’s casket was hoisted atop the Albany fire truck.

Firefighters, friends and relatives followed to the cemetery. Welch was a founder of the Albany Fire Protection District and chief of the district for 40 of his 46 years as a volunteer fireman.

A 1992 Mercury Capri was chosen by organizers to be the grand prize at

the second annual Lucky Duck Race.

The duck race is sponsored by the Clinton Downtown Business Association, the Lyons Business and Professional Association and the Fulton Chamber of Commerce. Funds earned in the raffles are used for community projects.

Fulton’s Chief of Police Douglas Krahn said the closing of the Illinois State Police headquarters in Sterling “most definitely will have an affect on our department.” The state police director has proposed closing the post as part of a plan he said is intended to trim and revitalize the agency. Whiteside County Sheriff Roger Schipper said closing the Sterling headquarters could send an estimated 3,000 to 4,000 more calls to his department.

All that remains of the former Volkman Manufacturing Plant in Morrison are the heavy brick walls after fire destroyed the building and its contents.

Three juveniles, two 13-year-olds and an 11-year-old, are accused of starting the blaze. As many as 12 area fire

departments were on the scene to get the blaze under control.

The River Bend School Board rejected a proposal to move Albany Middle School students to the Fulton Middle School. The board voted after a standing room only crowd heard two representatives of Western Illinois University explain a study they submitted about combining the sixth through eighth grades from the two schools.

Heavy metal toxicity symptoms discussed

Four Seasons Gardening Webinar Series

BY STEPHEN D. HARRISON, M.D. Heavy metals are toxic elements in our environment that can be dangerous, even in low concentration. They include lead, mercury, arsenic and even aluminum, nickel, uranium and cadmium. Other metals are dangerous when the concentrations are high, including metals that are helpful at low levels such as iron, lithium, zinc, calcium and manganese.

Symptoms of heavy metal toxicity may include low energy, mood disturbances and cognitive changes. They may contribute to dementia and Alzheimer’s-like functions. They also are contributors to auto immune diseases, skin irritation and neurological disorders such as MS. Irritable bowel syndrome, fibromyalgia, brain fog and insomnia also are common expressions of heavy metal toxicity.

Unfortunately, heavy metals may be found in many places in the environment including pollutants, traffic fumes, cigarette

smoke and radiation. Food contaminants are another source as are certain amalgam dental fillings. The concern with dental fillings is that when mercury is employed, there may be a slow release that causes the toxicity.

A diet high in processed foods can be a major contribution. Also, certain types of fish are higher in mercury, such as swordfish, shark, king mackerel and bigeye tuna. Even drinking water has aluminum and other heavy metals. Household products such as cosmetics, air conditioning, filters, fabric softeners, floor waxes and talcum power are potential sources.

The path to recovery from heavy metal toxicity involves avoidance as much as possible as well as detoxifying. Because these heavy metals are present everywhere, it is impossible to avoid them entirely. Gut health is the long-term essential by avoiding certain foods and maximizing others. No amount of positive supplement can avert

the toxicity entirely of negative ingestion.

Positive foods include leafy green vegetables such as spinach, broccoli, kale, dandelion greens, etc. Also, herbs and spices such as cilantro, rosemary, thyme, ginger, cinnamon and turmeric or curcumin. Garlic, onions, flax seeds and chia seeds are helpful. Vitamin C and water are essential. Things to avoid include additives, farmed fish and food allergens.

Alcohol causes problems in some as do the chemicals in nonorganic farming.

Other positive measures to consider include milk thistle and activated charcoal. Bentonite clay has found some benefit.

IV chelation is the most powerful way to reduce heavy metals but may be inconvenient and expensive. Oral chelation can be helpful with DMSA or magnesium succinate or Kelmer.

Intestinal Metal Detox is another such product. Sometimes several months are necessary. Check with your doctor on these products.

Margaret Park, situated in the middle of downtown Erie, is undergoing a transformation this year as the village prepares for their 150th anniversary celebration.

Last Monday, public works crews removed the blue spruce and locust tree as part of a redesign project spearheaded by the Revitalize Erie Beautification Committee, Public Works Department and active community volunteers.

Margaret Park was established by the Erie Woman’s Club in 1905, with the triangle being the town’s claim to fame. The park has had many different layouts over the past century, though the cast iron fountain, donated by the Erie Woman’s Club in 1908, has always been a key element of the park.

The village is actively working with an iron restoration company to evaluate the feasibility of repairing the 114year-old fountain, though they approved purchasing a new fountain to replace it if it is determined to be beyond repair. The old fountain would then be re-purposed into a planter for Heritage Park.

Sarah Ford for Shaw Media

Margaret Park looks bare after the removal of trees last week, part of the first phase to give it a new look and make the triangle park more accessible.

The beloved 40-foot tall blue spruce tree, donated by the Seger family in memory of Roland and Marjorie Seger, was lit up and admired by the community every holiday season. It outgrew the small green space and posed a traffic safety concern for several years, making its removal a nec-

essary part of the redesign project.

Both the evergreen and locust trees were brought to Moore Custom Sawmill in Erie for prepping, with Erie high school students to use the wood for benches to be placed in front of downtown businesses.

Village of Erie AmeriCorps intern

Katelin Bridgman said the redesign will make the park more accessible by installing ADA sidewalks leading into the center, planting new trees, and placing weather resistant benches around the fountain. The aim is to create a “beautiful green space for the entire community to enjoy.” The brick monument and welcome sign donated by the Chamber of Commerce in 1994 will remain, and an evergreen will be brought in for the holidays.

Revitalize Erie is applying for a $50,000 T-Mobile Hometown Grant to help cover some of the renovation costs. Bridgman hopes the project is completed by July, just in time for the main Sesquicentennial celebrations Aug. 12-14. A time capsule in the park, buried Sept. 7, 2002, will also be opened during the renovation process and reburied on Aug. 14.

Community members are invited to participate in upcoming Revitalize Erie meetings and get involved with their many ongoing projects. The Beautification Committee will meet on Thursday, Mar. 10 at 6:30 p.m. at the Village Hall, and the Event Planning Committee for the 150th celebrations will meet on Monday, March 14 at 6 p.m. at the Village Hall.

Riverdale Varsity Scholastic Bowl to compete at state

By SARAH FORD For Shaw Media

The Riverdale Varsity Scholastic Bowl team will be competing at the Masonic State Tournament this weekend after their victory at the Masonic Sectionals in Geneseo on Saturday, Feb. 19.

The Rams took the top spot against rivals Princeton, Geneseo and Rock Falls. Princeton was undefeated going into the last round against Riverdale, with the two teams tied up until Riverdale’s exciting and victorious end. The win capped off a successful but challenging season for the Rams.

While still recovering from the effects of COVID-19, the Scholastic Bowl team was able to overcome many, but not all, of the hurdles of the past year, said Coach Jim Campbell.

They’re still not playing the number of matches they did before the pandemic hit, but he knows the team will bounce back.

This year’s Varsity team has only one senior, Kyan Stuart, and seven juniors, which made Campbell concerned with the depth of knowledge since nobody had taken physics yet.

However, the experience levels of

juniors Tommy Murray, Emmett Mueller and Gavin Jenkins was high since they all had some varsity experience, with Tommy joining the team his freshman year, Campbell said.

“What they have brought to the table is a cohesion that is usually found with a group of seniors, and even then, it can be rare,” said Campbell. “We started off the season with our REST tournament in November. We lost in the finals to Geneseo on the last question - and that was the last loss we had.

We have not lost since then. We continued in December with three wins at a quadrangular meet in Morrison.”

In January, the Rams started the conference TRAC matches, concluding their regular season on Feb. 24 with their third consecutive conference win. They competed Feb. 19 at the Geneseo Masonic Sectional, hoping to avenge the season’s only loss they incurred against Geneseo, which they did. After a grueling win against a vastly improved Princeton team, the Rams punched their ticket to the Class 2A Masonic State Tournament in Bloomington this Saturday. This will be Riverdale’s 8th Masonic State tournament appearance and 13th state tournament appearance overall.

Scholastic Bowl has two state series tournaments, the Masonic and the IHSA. The Masonics had their version before the IHSA identified Scholastic Bowl as a legitimate activity, though the Masonics proudly continue their

support of the State tournament.

The Rams are currently at 28-1 for the season. They’ll also be hosting the IHSA Regionals on Monday, March 7, and the IHSA Sectionals on Saturday, March 12.

84 Corridor Pub Crawl to raise funds for Bison Bridge

Sarah Ford for Shaw Media

The gym bleachers were packed and the energy was off the charts as the Riverdale Rams battled the Rockridge Rockets on Friday, Feb. 25, at Riverdale High School in Port Byron. As host of the IHSA Class 2A boys basketball regional, the Riverdale community showed up loud and proud for the final Rams game of the season. Despite an early lead, the Rams trailed the Rockets throughout the majority of the game. The halftime score was 28-23, with the Rams just a few points away from the lead throughout the rest of the game. The Rockets cliched the victory and a trip to sectionals with a final score of 58-52.

The first annual 84 Corridor St. Patrick’s Pub Crawl, sponsored by Vintage Radio 107.7, is set for Saturday, March 12, with funds to be raised for the Bison Bridge initiative.

Crawl locations include Rams Riverhouse, The Edge Eatery and Drinkatorium, Blue Suede Cocktails and Coffee, Jimmie Lee’s Bar and Grill, Peacocks Tavern, Duey’s Corner Tap, Tuggers and GiLanella’s Pizza.

There will be food and drink specials, live entertainment, prizes, giveaways, raffles and a 50/50 drawing. Free shuttle services will be offered.

The fundraising event kicks off at noon and goes into the night. The Bison Bridge Foundation seeks to save the I-80 bridge and repurpose it into a National Park to be enjoyed by locals, tourists, and bison. It would be the longest manmade wildlife crossing in the world. Find out more at bisonbridge.org.

ROCK ISLAND COUNTY

Forest Preserve Commission seeking ideas for park name For almost 80 years, residents of Rock Island County have enjoyed two forest preserves with names as impressive as the woods they contain. Illiniwek Forest Preserve near Hampton took its name from an Ojibwa word for the confederation of tribes that included the Peoria, Michigamea and Kaskaskia peoples, among others.

Loud Thunder, near Andalusia, was named for an English translation of Náh-se-ús-kuk, the name of Black Hawk’s son.

These are important names which have taken on even greater meaning as generations of Quad citizens have explored their trails and stood in awe of the natural beauty they contain.

Thanks to careful stewardship of the parks by their superintendents – Ben Mills at Loud Thunder and Mike Petersen at Illiniwek – the biodiversity at both is strong and growing stronger.

Several endangered and threatened species are making a comeback in Rock Island County, including the American bumblebee and the Indiana bat. Even the long-absent bobwhite quail seems poised to make a comeback at Illiniwek.

Anyone who’s enjoyed the beauty of these two amazing preserves knows we owe a debt of gratitude to the visionary community leaders who made possible a legacy that now belongs to all of us in Rock Island County. Fast forward to

Sarah Ford for Shaw Media

The Rock Island County Forest Preserve recently acquired nearly 180 acres of land near Interstate 80 and Illinois 92 in East Moline. This will be the preserve’s seventh park, which also includes Dorrance Park in Port Byron and Illiniwek Park in Hampton. today, and thanks to a $1 million grant from the Illinois Clean Energy Foundation, we will soon add 179-acres to the vital community trust that is the county’s Forest Preserve District established in 1944.

This once-in-a-lifetime acquisition of public land brings with it a once-in-a-generation opportunity: to find a name that has as much importance, relevance and potential as the names of our existing forest preserves.

The Rock Island County Forest Preserve Commission is inviting suggestions from the public. The goal is to find a name that is true to the region’s rich history, embraces our community’s values and captures our hope for the future.

Ideas for naming the newest Rock Island County Forest Preserve by email to newpark@ricfpd.org, or by mail to “New Park” at 19406 Loud Thunder Road, Illinois City IL 61259.

Ideas will be accepted through the end of March.

In the meantime, the Forest Preserve Commission is seeking more than your naming suggestions.

Whether you’d like to help with conservation activities, special events, education programs or any of the other opportunities available through the Forest Preserve District, your help is both welcome and needed. Without volunteers, much of the vital work at our preserves simply could not be accomplished. You can learn more about supporting the District’s mission to, “Restore, conserve, learn, and play,” by visiting the District website at www.ricfpd.org.

Most importantly, commissioners invite the public to come and explore the wonders of the world close at hand, through the resources of the Rock Island County Forest Preserve District.

Riverdale High School theater students are returning to the stage next week with a fanciful and imaginative production of Lewis Carroll’s “Alice in Wonderland.”

The play is directed by Courtney Morrison of Hillsdale, new to the theater department this year. She’s always had a love for the performing arts and was in theater all four years while at Geneseo High School.

Get your tickets to gaze through the looking glass and go down the rabbit hole while enjoying the sights and sounds of the beloved classic. Junior Rylee Clark is playing Alice.

BOYS BASKETBALL | CLASS 2A RIVERDALE REGIONAL

3-POINT-SHOOTOUT

By TERRY DUCKETT

Special to Shaw Media PORT BYRON – Like it has all year long, the Rock Falls boys basketball team fought to the end in the Class 2A Riverdale Regional semifinal Feb. 23 against the host Rams.

But trailing by double-digits at halftime, the Rockets couldn’t climb out of an early hole in a 71-47 Riverdale win.

“We came out flat, they got the lead, and we tried to claw back,” Rock Falls coach Zach Sandrock said. “We fought like we have all year, but it was too little, too late.”

Riverdale (25-6) scored the game’s first 11 points, then weathered a flurry of Rock Falls 3-pointers before pulling away. It put the Rams in position to win their first regional title in 10 years – and do it on their home court.

“We haven’t won regionals here in awhile, and we want to be the team to do it,” Riverdale senior guard Brandon Stone said. “We think we’re ready for it.”

Tallying 17 points and eight rebounds, Stone jump-started the Rams with 12 first-quarter points.

Senior guard Andrew Meloan had six of his 10 points in the opening period, including a three-point play that capped the hosts’ opening 11-0 run.

The Rockets (13-18) whittled that deficit to five, but 3-pointers by Stone and Meloan re-lit the Rams’ spark as they took a 23-7 lead after the first eight minutes.

“We wanted to come out and show them this is our house,” Stone said.

“Our crowd helped us a lot with momentum. With the first-round bye, we practiced hard this past week, and that prepared us for this.”

Riverdale kept up its pace in the second period, taking a 36-17 lead at halftime after shooting 50% (14-for-28) from the floor in the first 16 minutes.

“We had a slow start. Shots just didn’t fall early. I think we rushed a little too much at the beginning and let them dictate pace,” Sandrock said.

“They’re a good ballclub, a good program. They’ve got a lot of shooters, a lot of guys who do a lot of stuff and strong role players, and they did their job tonight and controlled the pace.”

16 BOYS BASKETBALL | CLASS 1A EASTLAND REGIONAL SEMIFINAL | AQUIN 59, FULTON 56 (OT)

Fulton battles back, but Aquin wins in overtime

By TY REYNOLDS

treynolds@shawmedia.com LANARK – Despite some heroics late in regulation to force overtime, the Fulton boys basketball team lost 59-56 to Aquin in a Class 1A Eastland Regional semifinal Feb. 23 in Lanark.

Steamers sophomore Baylen Damhoff hit a 3-pointer with 1 second left in regulation to tie the game 54-54 and send it into an extra period, then senior Brock Mason hit a hanger from the baseline for a 56-54 lead just 24 seconds into overtime.

But Aquin senior Dom Alber nailed a deep 3 from the left wing to give the Bulldogs (17-13) a 57-56 lead with 1:33 remaining, and classmate Ollie Arndt scored inside off a pass from Jack Hiveley with 26 seconds left to make it a three-point Aquin lead.

The Steamers (29-4) had another chance to tie. Damhoff and Ian Wiebenga both had 3-point attempts on the next Fulton possession, but their shots rimmed out, and Aquin grabbed the rebound.

“At the end, we got down a little bit and Baylen hit a huge monster shot for us, then we came out and got a bucket to start overtime,” Fulton coach R.J. Coffey said. “Then we came down and had that turnover which I just can’t wrap my head around, and then 23 [Alber], who’d been hot, hits a deep 3; we just didn’t do our job to force him into a difficult look.

He made a big play, and then we came down and it was a situation where I thought we had good looks and they just couldn’t go down.”

Alber was fouled, but missed both free throws with 4.9 seconds left to give Fulton some hope.

After dribbling to half court, the Steamers called timeout with 1.9 seconds left. But Fulton failed to get the ball in bounds out of the timeout, turning it over with a quick 5-second call, and Aquin was able to throw the ball in and dribble out the clock.

“It was up and down, a lot of swings,” Coffey said. “Obviously we didn’t finish the way we wanted to offensively, but we knew it was going to be a dogfight the whole way.

“We just couldn’t put enough possessions together with scores and stops.

We’d make a couple baskets, but we’d give some up, and we just couldn’t extend that lead.”

Fulton led 14-9 early in the second quarter, then went on a lightning-quick 6-0 run early in the third to take a 26-20 advantage.

After Aquin got back to within 28-26, Ethan Price hit a pull-up jumper in the lane, Mason hit two free throws, and Damhoff scored inside to counteract baskets by Evan Broge and Alber for a

34-31 lead with 1:07 left in the third.

Price scored to start the fourth quarter, then Ian Wiebenga hit a pull-up jumper after an Alber 3 for a 41-38 Fulton lead with 7:17 remaining. Mason drove the lane and kicked out to Wiebenga for an open 3 about 30 seconds later, then Mason scored on a baseline drive to answer a bucket by Aquin’s Connor Senneff for a 46-42 Fulton lead with 5:52 left in regulation.

But Alber nailed another 3, then Hiveley scored with 4:58 to play for a 47-46 Aquin lead. Weibenga’s putback and Jacob Jones’ drive down the lane restored a 50-47 Fulton lead, but Broge hit a pull-up jumper to cut it to 50-49.

After Wiebenga went 1-for-2 from the free-throw line, Alber hit two free throws to tie the game at 51 with 1:54 to play, then Hiveley hit two free throws and Alber added another for a 54-51 Aquin lead with 46.2 seconds left.

Playing without Damhoff, who was forced to the bench with four fouls in the final minute of the third quarter, Coffey was happy to see his team take on the challenge and stay close down the stretch.

“It’s tough when your leading scorer goes out in foul trouble like that, you just hope to maintain – and I thought we did.

We held it down, Ian hit a couple of big shots, Jones was getting to the rack a little bit,” Coffey said. “We just defensively couldn’t get enough stops, and they didn’t miss much in that fourth quarter, and they were getting to the free-throw line.”

Damhoff, who spent most of the fourth quarter on the bench with four fouls, was back in for the final few minutes, and after the Steamers ran down the clock for a final shot, it was all his.

He missed a 3 attempt, but Mason got the rebound and found Damhoff open again on the perimeter, and the sophomore buried the tying 3 to force OT. Damhoff scored 21 points, and Wiebenga hit three 3s and added 14 points for Fulton. Price scored nine, and Mason and Jones chipped in six points each, but the Steamers’ season ended earlier than they were hoping.

“That’s the way it goes sometimes.

That’s high school sports. It can go up, it can go down, and I’m proud of our guys,” Coffey said. “We’ve had so many ups this year, and I just feel for them to where we couldn’t get the job tonight. But Aquin came in and played a heck of a ballgame.

I’m proud of our guys, man, a great season. It’s just unfortunate that we couldn’t get it done tonight.”

Alber scored 18 of his game-high 23 points after halftime, hitting all three of his 3-pointers in the fourth quarter and overtime. Senneff had 11 points, Hiveley added 10, and Broge chipped in seven for Aquin.

BOYS BASKETBALL | CLASS 2A RIVERDALE REGIONAL SEMIFINAL | ROCKRIDGE 56, ERIE-PROPHETSTOWN 38

By TERRY DUCKETT

Special to Shaw Media PORT BYRON – Having had two previous meetings with Erie-Prophetstown under its belt, the Rockridge boys basketball team was expecting a battle.

Facing their Three Rivers West Division rivals for the third time in the Class 2A Riverdale Regional semifinals Feb. 23, the Rockets got the battle they were expecting as E-P simply would not go away.

It was not until the fourth quarter that Rockridge got a significant degree of separation as it pulled away for a 56-38 victory.

“We knew it’d be this type of game,” Rockridge coach Andy Saey said. “We

• RIVERDALE

Continued from page 15 Rock Falls wasn’t done. It rallied like it has so many times this season. With Timmy Heald knocking down three straight 3-pointers and teammate Gavin Sands scoring seven of his 12 points in the third quarter, the Rockets managed to get back to within single digits at 45-36.

just had to control what we could control. Our defense needs to travel with us if we want to do something special.”

Up 40-28 going into the fourth quarter, the Rockets (22-6) braced themselves for another E-P run as the Panthers (15-10) closed the gap to 42-31 on a Caleb Naftzger three-point play early in the period.

From that point on, Rockridge allowed just seven points, while senior forward Nate Henry scored nine of his game-high 20 points in the closing minutes to help his club nail down its 11th straight victory.

“E-P’s a tough team, and this is our third time playing them,” said Henry, who also pulled down eight rebounds.

“Each time we’ve played them, it’s

been a dogfight, always close until the very end. We just had to keep our composure to win this game.”

Trailing 28-17 at halftime, Erie-Prophetstown made one of its biggest pushes of the night as five straight points from senior standout Kolby Franks and a bucket by Naftzger got the Panthers to within five at 31-26 nearly three minutes into the third.

“We were striving to get consecutive stops; that’s what we talk about in our timeouts,” Saey said. “If we could do that, then we’d be in good position.”

That is what the Rockets did, enabling them to close the third quarter with a 9-2 run. From that point on, E-P was unable to get back to within single digits.

“We made a nice push with a lot of momentum,” E-P coach Ryan Winckler said of his squad’s second-half start. “But Rockridge is a really good team, and they scored on three straight possessions. After that, it was a fight back uphill for us.”

Despite the efforts of Franks (15 points, 9 rebounds), Naftzger (16 points) and Connor Sibley (5 points, 8 rebounds), the Panthers were unable to sustain any long runs.

“I’m proud of the guys and the way they executed our game plan and made it difficult on them,” Winckler said. “It just came down to us not making some shots. But I hope our guys have no regrets. They left everything on the court.”

“We know teams like that want to give it their best and beat us at home,” Stone said. “We just had to weather the storm.”

Helping the Rams do that was senior forward Max Maring. Picking up in the second half where Stone left off in the first, Maring scored 15 of his game-high 21 points and had a 10-point third as Riverdale took a 53-40 lead into the fourth period.

Another run of 11 straight points by

the Rams enabled them to open a 64-42 lead, effectively taking control of the game.

“After halftime, [Rock Falls] came out fired up,” said Maring, who had a game-high 18 rebounds. “We had to turn it up on defense, be taller than them, drive, kick it out and feed the paint. Just play our kind of basketball.”

Booker Cross led Rock Falls with 14 points, and Sands added 12. Devin

Schultz grabbed seven rebounds, and Ayden Goff added six boards.

“I’m proud of the way these guys fought tonight, and all season,” Sandrock said. “We cut it to single digits a couple times in the third quarter, but they hit shots and extended the lead, and we just couldn’t catch up.

“But this was a fun team to watch grow this season. The seniors were great leaders, and I think these younger guys will just continue to get better.”
