To our valued readers: This edition of our paper marks the start of a bright, new era for the Record and our readers. You’ll notice we’ve resized the paper. We’re now an easier-to-read tabloid format with improved printing quality. While the paper has a new shape and cleaner look, it also has more pages, more local news, more information and more features to help keep you fully informed on what’s going on in your community, your neighborhood and Kendall County. Over the past several months, we’ve talked to our readers about how we can improve the Record and we’ve listened: • Responding to numerous reader requests, we brought back our popular Arts & Entertainment page. The reborn A&E page will provide our readers with a comprehensive weekly listing of local
entertainment options in Kendall County and the greater Fox Valley area, from live theater to concerts to special events and so much more. Find it in today’s paper on pages 17-18 of the Countywide section. • Starting today, our readers will find an improved, reader-friendly classified ad section. We’ve put larger headlines on each classification and significantly increased the column widths and the space between the columns. The bottom line: it’s now much easier to find items for sale, locate garage sales and all the other items that make our classified ad section so popular. • Our readers will find more color throughout the paper every week. More ads from local businesses will be printed in color, as will the award-winning news and sports photos from our photographers. We
will also print more photos submitted by local readers and businesses in color. • Do you like puzzles? We do and our readers told us they like them, too. That’s why we’re adding a weekly crossword and sudoku puzzles to our Countywide section. We sincerely hope you enjoy these improvements and we continue to welcome your thoughts and input on how we can do even better. We also would like to remind you that though we print our paper every week, we offer daily news and information updates on our website at KendallCountyNow.com and on our Facebook page. We encourage you to visit our website daily for updates and to sign up for free breaking news text alerts. John Etheredge Editor Record Newspapers
Title I summer school program to start earlier By KATHY FARREN news@kendallcountynow.com There are a number of decisions yet to be made about this year’s summer school in the Yorkville School District, but at least one program will be held earlier than usual. Title I summer school for students who are economically disadvantaged will be held from July 11 to 29 this year, earlier than in the past because of the early start to the next school year.
The first day of the 2016-17 school year in Yorkville will be Aug. 16 in order to allow for the first semester to end before Christmas break. Gallt said the district had to move up the Title I date in this shortened summer, “so these students can get the assistance they need.” Title I summer school programs in reading and math will be four hours a day, four days a week for elementary and middle school students, and two hours a day, four days a week for high school
students. Gallt said she believes these programs will be offered at Yorkville Intermediate School, Yorkville Middle School and Yorkville High School. Title I federal funds will cover the cost of busing elementary and middle school students, 30 teachers, one elementary principal, and staff training. Expected dates for ESY summer classes are June 15 to July 19. More information on all summer school programs will be presented at upcoming Board of Education meetings, Gallt said.
Kendall County Board OKs fuel tank agreement By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com The Kendall County Board unanimously approved an agreement Jan. 19 with the Illinois Department of Transportation related to the removal of underground fuel storage tanks once located at the county’s highway department facility. The agreement closes out the removal of the tanks that took place over 20 years ago at the facility on Route 47 north of Route 71 in Yorkville. The agreement will now be sent to the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency, which will close out its investigation. In 2013 the board unanimously voted to hire Huff and Huff Inc. to remediate contaminated soil at the facility where the tanks had leaked. The county paid Huff and Huff $67,662, according to Fran Klaas, county highway engineer.
Klaas said the IEPA subsequently called the county about the tank removal because they couldn’t find paperwork related to the project. “The IEPA won’t sign off on the remediation of the tank removal until we have the highway authority agreement in place,” Klaas said. Board member Bob Davidson’s company, H.D. Backhoe of Yorkville, was the contractor on the project to remove the tanks two decades ago. Referring to the agreement, Davidson asked his board colleagues, “Does this give us a clean bill of health with the EPA and everyone?” “Yes, sir,” board member Dan Koukol responded, adding, “We need to get it signed and done so they can move on to the next project that they have.” Todd Milliron, a candidate for the county board in the March primary election, however, took Davidson to task during the citizen’s comment portion of the board’s Jan. 19 meeting.
“The contractor that removed them is sitting on the board – it’s Mr. Davidson,” Milliron said. “It was an improper job that was done and it was noncompliance and it went on for a long, long time until eventually the IEPA said, ‘You gotta do this closure properly.’” He added that no explanation has ever come from Davidson for the job that his firm performed. After the meeting Davidson balked at the accusation from Milliron. “Print whatever you want, I don’t care,” Davidson told reporters. “I dug the hole and, yes, I pulled the tanks out of the ground,” he added. He said another firm came in to defuse the tanks. “You got to make it safe to cut a hole in it, otherwise it will blow everybody up,” Davidson said. He recalled when the tanks were removed that the contractor took soil samples and had them tested in a lab.
Administrators’ increases will average 2 percent By KATHY FARREN

$81,499 • David Taylor, Bristol Bay Elementary School principal, $106,295 • David Travis, Yorkville High School principal, $130,000 • Hassan von Schlegell, director of student services, $122,046 • Christine Warren, Yorkville High School associate principal, $95,000 • Adam West, Yorkville High School assistant principal, $78,822 • Joel Wyeth, Yorkville High School associate principal, $104,138 In addition, the district pays these administrators’ contributions to the Teacher Retirement System equal to approximately 10 percent of their salaries. The exceptions are Adkins and Debolt, who are not certified as teachers and who are instead part of the Social Security system. The district also pays for dental and health insurance at a cost ranging from $7,031 to $26,432 per administrator and life insurance at a cost of $829 to $870. Some administrators also receive additional compensation for other duties and mileage. For example, Shimp receives $400 per month for mileage and Bjork is paid to serve as the principal of the summer school program. The district contributes $9,933 to an annuity for Debolt and he will also be paid a $2,090 bonus. At Monday’s meeting, the board also set salaries for non-certified (non-teaching) support staff. Those employees will receive increases of 2 percent for this school year; 3 percent for 2016-17; and 3.27 percent for 2017-18. Another $42,026.75 will be distributed to some of the support staff whose pay varied greatly from their position’s target salary.

Yorkville School District administrators will receive pay increases averaging about 2 percent this school year. Board members approved their compensation at a meeting last week, six weeks after the contract for district teachers was approved. All of their salaries are “performance based,” Superintendent Tim Shimp said. Some administrators received more of an increase as an additional $8,384 was distributed among those whose pay was 15 percent or more below their position’s “target salary.” Assistant Superintendent for Finance and Operations Dean Romano explained how the target salaries were determined. He said the district looked at salaries for each administrative position in all large unit school districts (elementary and high school in one district) within a one and a half hour commute of the center of the Yorkville School District. That commuting time was used, he said, because they figured that if an administrator had a 45-minute commute from home to Yorkville, they could easily commute 45 minutes in the opposite direction to another district. When the salaries for administrative positions in all of these other districts were compiled, Romano said they took figures in the third quartile from the top – or slightly below the middle – as the target salaries.
The total cost of administrative compensation will be up about 3.12 percent over last year, including some new hires, resignations and employees in the retirement track. Shimp’s salary, which was $175,127 last year, has not yet been set for this year. He said that he hasn’t talked with the board concerning a raise for this school year, “for no other reason than the priorities have been ensuring the teachers contract was settled, and recommendations were made on behalf of the educational support personnel and the administrators.” However, he does not intend to ask for a raise, he said. “The Board of Education and this community have been very good to me and my family,” Shimp said. “The district has made great progress and we have much to be proud of, and have many exciting and challenging goals yet to accomplish for the staff, students and community. The work ahead is what motivates and drives me, and I feel blessed to serve our schools.” Administrative salaries for the 2015-16 fiscal year which ends June 30, 2016 were set at: • Ryan Adkins, director of technology, $105,237 • Lisa Adler, Yorkville Middle School principal, $96,990 • Tracy Anderson, Circle Center Grade School assistant principal, $77,916 • Robert Battey, Grande Reserve Elementary School principal, $78,822 • Steve Bjork, Yorkville Intermedi-

YORKVILLE SCHOOL BOARD OK’S RAISES

OPINIONS OUR VIEW
Council should OK senior apartments – but with a change The Yorkville City Council is expected to vote later this month on a controversial plan to construct a four-story, 75-unit apartment building for senior citizens at the northeast corner of Walnut and Freemont streets. Both the city’s zoning board of appeals and plan commission have recommended the council reject the project as proposed by the GC Development Company. Yorkville Mayor Gary Golinski, however, voiced his support during a council meeting last week, while the city’s aldermen expressed differing opinions. Rita Murphy, who has advocated for seniors in Yorkville through the TRIAD and Senior Services Associates groups, told the council the apartments are “not a luxury,” but a “necessity.” While Karylin Clevenger, information and assistance specialist for Senior Services Associates said that there are nine senior living developments in Kendall County and the average waiting list is about one year. “As a community, I think we need to support this development and welcome them with open arms,” she said. Like Golinski and the senior advocates, we believe there is a very real need in the city for affordable senior housing. We are certain that need is only going to increase as the city’s population ages. We also believe the 3.12 acre site for the project would be ideal for senior housing. Yes, it is bordered to the east by a single-family home, but it is also bordered to the north and west by multi-family townhomes and across the street to the south by St. Patrick’s Roman Catholic Church. The project’s site – within walking distance to the stores in the Yorkville Marketplace shopping center – would prove convenient for residents. We’re also certain the stores in the center would benefit from the additional customers the complex would generate. However, one issue we do have with the project as proposed is the height of the building. We share the neighbors’ concern that a four-story structure would tower over the adjoining two story townhomes and the single-family home to the east. We believe a more modest two or two and one-half story structure would be a better overall fit for the neighborhood.
Making the grade at Lisbon Grade School Congratulations are in order to the staff and students at Lisbon Grade School District 90 for earning a second place in the state on the 2014-15 Partnership for Assessment Readiness for College and Career (PARCC) tests. The PARCC is a statewide math and reading assessment test for students in grades 3-8. According to the Illinois Report Cards (Illinoisreportcard. com), 82 percent of the students at the tiny school in south central Kendall County met or exceeded expectations on the PARCC test. That percentage far exceeds scores achieved by students attending larger public schools in more affluent areas of Chicago and its suburbs. Clearly, teachers and students have been doing their homework in Lisbon.

To the Editor: The proposed senior housing facility on Walnut St. in Yorkville does not belong where they want to put it. It’s a four story building in the middle of a residential neighborhood. The Zoning Board and Planning Commission already voted it down. No one in the area is debating the need for senior housing in Kendall County. They say there is a year wait for a place. If that is the case, then why not use any of the much larger vacant land nearby that’s available? They could then build a much larger facility to accommodate many more residents. Keep in mind this is a for-profit business, not a charity. This is likely the cheapest parcel they could find in town. Greg Rourke Yorkville
Learning from an expert
To the Editor: We would like to take the opportunity to extend sincere thanks to Mr. Tim Karales at the Kendall County Highway Department. Tim recently brought a snow plow truck to Yorkville Intermediate School to help us discuss blizzards, how the truck works, how he clears the roads and basic safety in a blizzard. We can teach students anything in the classroom, but nothing compares to how excited they were to actually see the huge truck and hear from an expert. It was an experience I’m sure they will not soon forget. We would also like to thank Mr. Fran Klaas for helping to put this event together. The students greatly enjoyed getting to learn from our friends at the Kendall County Highway Department. Jenny Lunn Donna Williams Sarah Marker Yorkville Intermediate School Yorkville

Inmate charged with making weapon out of toothbrush KENDALL COUNTY RECORD An inmate at the Kendall County jail in custody on weapons charges stemming from an incident last summer in Oswego is facing a further charge of possession of a weapon in custody of the department of corrections, Kendall County sheriff’s police said. According to reports, Taylor J. Cano, 25, of the 300 block of South Ford- Taylor J. ham Avenue, Aurora, is Cano accused of fabricating a stabbing instrument out of a toothbrush. The weapon was seized without incident, reports said. The incident occurred Jan. 30 at the jail in the 1100 block of Cornell Lane, Yorkville. Cano is in custody awaiting trial on charges involving an incident Aug. 29 in Oswego. Two Oswego police officers shot and wounded Cano on Ashlawn Avenue in the village’s Cedar Glen subdivision. Kendall County State’s Attorney Eric Weis had determined the actions of the officers to be justified. During his investigation, Weis said that prior to the in-
cident Cano had several conversations with KenCom (911) dispatchers concerning his intent to commit harm against other individuals that day. Cano also told dispatchers he was armed and would harm those who would come to help him. Upon arrival on Ashlawn Avenue, the two police officers, Chad Dickey and Ben Hackl, found Cano, who appeared to have a firearm in his hand. Police later determined it to be a long rifle. According to Weis, the officers used flashlights to illuminate Cano in the darkness and yelled for him to put the weapon down and to show his hands. “At that point, Mr. Cano turned and fired at the officers, discharging one round. Officers Dickey and Hackl returned fire and Mr. Cano was struck one time,” Weis said. Oswego Fire Protection District paramedics were immediately summoned to the scene and took Cano to Rush-Copley Medical Center in Aurora. Cano has been held at the Kendall County jail in Yorkville since his release from the hospital. Bond for Cano in the weekend jail incident was set at $50,000. A status hearing is scheduled for Feb. 17 in Kendall County Circuit Court.

owes the county $27,069 for that reimbursement. “Everyone is kind of watching St. Clair County to see what happens. They have prevailed at trial court level and that issue is up at the Appellate Court so everyone is kind of taking a wait-and-see approach to that case as well as to see what is going on in Springfield,” Weis said. If the budget gets passed, Weis said he anticipates that the funds would then be allocated and paid to the counties. The General Assembly could also
enact legislation to pay it. “It’s kind of a three-prong approach – we’re hoping that the litigation is kind of like the last alternative, but we wanted it on file to make sure we protected any interest that we have in those payments as well,” Weis said. Kendall County Treasurer Jill Ferko says the county has not received payment for those salary reimbursements since last July, when the state’s fiscal year ended. Ferko said for the last six months the county has been covering the entirety of those salaries.

Kendall County State’s Attorney Eric Weis says his office will continue to pursue a lawsuit against the state of Illinois for a portion of his salary as well as the salaries of the county’s supervisor of assessments and county’s chief public defender. Weis filed the suit back in November but said the recent success of a similar suit filed in St. Clair County makes him hopeful the state will do something. Eric Weis State law requires the state to pay for a portion of the salaries of county state’s attorneys, supervisors of assessments and public defenders. However, due to the continuing impasse over the state budget, the state is not reimbursing counties for its portion of the salaries. The lawsuit filed by Weis names the Illinois Department of Revenue and the Illinois comptroller as defendants. “All the suits that have been filed throughout the state are the same template as St. Clair County and since they prevailed we figure that was the easiest way,” Weis said. Weis said that he consulted with
the Kendall County Board before filing the suit but there was no formal action by the board. In total, 10 counties have filed lawsuits and most of them were downstate because they were feeling more of an impact from this nonpayment. “St. Clair County was successful in their bid and they’re the ones who have gone through a full-blown hearing, so we’re hoping that sets a good precedent for the rest of the state and hopefully convinces the comptroller as well as the department of revenue that those should be paid, or convinces the General Assembly and governor to do something,” Weis said. The state pays about 66 percent of Weis’ salary as well as the public defender’s salary and 50 percent of the chief assessor’s salary. Illinois owes Kendall County about $169,763 in total reimbursements for the three salaries, according to information provided by the Kendall County Treasurer’s Office. Broken down by each office, the public defender’s current salary is $149,857 and the state owes the county $58,272 for that reimbursement. The state’s attorney’s salary is $166,508 and the state owes the county $84,395 for that salary. The chief assessor makes $83,000 annually and the state

RECORD
Hastert sentencing April 8 SHAW MEDIA The sentencing of former U.S. Speaker of the House Dennis Hastert has been delayed. A federal judge in Chicago agreed Jan. 28 to postpone the sentencing in a hush-money case after his attorney said Hastert nearly died in November from severe sepsis, according to the Associated Press. U.S. District Judge Thomas M. Durkin set April 8 as the new sentencing date for the 74-year-old Republican, who lives in Plano. Hastert had been scheduled to be Dennis sentenced Feb. 29. Hastert Days after pleading guilty to violating bank laws in seeking to pay someone $3.5 million in hush money, Hastert was hospitalized on Nov. 3 for a blood infection that spread to his spine, attorney John Gallo said. “He nearly died that week,” the AP quoted Gallo as saying. Assistant U.S. Attorney Steven Block told the judge the government didn’t object to pushing back sentencing this time, but that it shouldn’t be put off indefinitely.

“There are victims in this case and they deserve closure,” Block said. Hastert was accused last May of evading banking regulations as part of a plan to pay someone referred to in court documents only as “Individual A” to conceal “prior misconduct.” The AP and other media outlets, citing anonymous sources, have reported that Hastert wanted to hide claims that he sexually molested someone decades earlier. Hastert pleaded guilty Oct. 28. In the written plea agreement, he directly acknowledged for the first time that he sought to pay someone to hide misconduct by Hastert against that person dating back several decades – about the time the longtime GOP leader was a teacher at Yorkville High School between 1965 and 1981, the year he was sworn in as a state representative. Hastert was elected to Congress in 1986 and became Speaker of the House in 1999. He served as Speaker until 2007. An Oswego High School graduate, Hastert coached football and wrestling at YHS. He coached the Foxes to a state wrestling title in 1976.

BOYS BASKETBALL: NEWARK 75, PAW PAW 9
17
By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com Will Clausel is the newest member of Newark’s 1,000 point club. The junior needed just eight points entering Tuesday’s game against Paw Paw in the second round of the Little Ten Conference Tournament. Clausel reached the milestone with 45.2 seconds left to play, as the top-seeded Norsemen defeated the No. 8 Bulldogs, 75-9, at host Somonauk. “It’s just an outstanding achievement for Willie,” Newark coach Rick Tollefson said. “He’s been such a terrific player for us. I’m glad he’s only a junior.” “It was good to get it out of the way,” Clausel added. “We had a two-week break [Newark hadn’t played since Jan. 19], and everyone was talking to me about it. I wasn’t really thinking about it [during the game]. I was just
passing it to open guys.” With the win, the Norsemen (19-2 overall, eight game winning streak) will take on No. 5 Somonauk in the semifinals on Thursday. The Bobcats advanced after they defeated No. 4 Serena, 67-47. The final day of the tournament is Friday. Against Paw Paw, Newark led 22-0 after the first quarter. Clausel did not score his first basket of the game until he hit a three-pointer with 6:57 left in the second quarter. At the half, the Norsemen led 41-4. Clausel added a free throw in the third, when Newark outscored Paw Paw 23-0. In the running clock fourth quarter, he scored point No. 998 with 6:58 left in the game. He re-entered with 2:08 to play, and in the final minute, he hit the milestone on a jumper. Jack Clausel led Newark with 14 points. Steve McGrath, Dylan Patrick and Cameron Myre each netted 12.

Norsemen drop final two in LTC play By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com The Newark girls basketball team capped the regular season with backto-back Little Ten Conference losses to Serena and Indian Creek. The Norsemen are now 17-9 overall and 6-2 in the league entering the playoffs. Last Thursday, Serena defeated Newark, 45-41. On Monday, Indian Creek, which finished undefeated in the conference and won its first-ever league title, topped the Norsemen, 58-42. “It’s good to have tough conference games at the end of the season to help prepare us for the postseason,” Newark head coach Barb Scott said. The Norsemen begin play as the No. 4 seed against No. 5 Gardner-South Wilmington in the semifinals of the Class 1A
Gardner-South Wilmington Regional on Feb. 10. The Norsemen could meet No. 1 seed Indian Creek in the title game Feb. 11, if they get past the Panthers and the Timberwolves defeat Illinois Lutheran or Mooseheart in the first round. Against Indian Creek, Newark saw junior Jasmine Mitchell return after she missed five games with an injury. She posted 11 points and five rebounds while Megan DiClementi led with 13 points. “It was great to have (Mitchell) back on the floor, and she will continue to get stronger during these days leading up to the regionals,” Scott said. “We are excited to have our entire team healthy again and ready to make a run next week.” Against Serena, Newark was led by senior Kelsea Zitt (17 points, 11 rebounds, five steals, four assists) and DiClementi added 12 points and six steals.

18 BOYS BASKETBALL: OSWEGO 54, YORKVILLE 45
Oswego takes up defensive challenge against Yorkville By KRISTIN SHARP ksharp@kendallcountynow.com Oswego boys basketball head coach Matt Borrowman challenged his players to step up their defensive intensity this week at practice, and senior Brice Robinson took that task seriously on Saturday night in Yorkville. Robinson dove for a loose ball late in the fourth quarter of play and broke a tooth in a collision with a Yorkville player. After a brief moment on the bench to regroup, Robinson returned to the game and converted a slam dunk to put Oswego ahead 52-39. The momentum continued to the final horn, as Oswego won 54-45 over the host Foxes in the annual Communities vs. Cancer event. With the win, Oswego improves to 14-6 overall while Yorkville holds a 9-11 record to start February play. “We play a lot of guys and got into foul trouble early with some silly fouls,� Borrowman said. “We allowed 15 first-quarter points and held them to 30 the rest of the way. Our defense is something we’ve been working on in practice – pretty much all day, every day – and it’s paying off.� Yorkville had a big start to the game, with Dan Kaczmarek hitting a pair of
adno=0366109
three-pointers to give the Foxes an early 8-2 lead. Oswego’s Malique Ross (19 points) countered with four quick points and an assist inside to Steven Frank before a three-pointer from Conor Morton (12 points) put the Panthers right on the Foxes’ heals, 13-12. Morton’s next three-pointer tied the game at the buzzer, and the scoreboard was deadlocked twice more in the second quarter before Robinson (13 points) scored six straight points to lift the Panthers to a 23-19 lead. “Brice was real big inside and Steven was getting the rebounds in there for us,� Borrowman said. “We’re getting there, now that we’ve had Malique back for a week of practice and getting everyone healthy.� Ross, who was playing in his third game back after missing two months of the season with a broken hand, knocked down a pair of jumpers, but Kaczmarek hit another long-range field goal for the Foxes to create a 27-23 game. Oswego went into the locker room with a 32-25 lead, and both teams had a quiet third quarter with the Panthers outscoring the Foxes 10-8. Kaczmarek (15 points) was fouled on a three-point attempt and made all three at the foul line to pull Yorkville within
six, and DeAndre Manuel (12 points) added one free throw for a 44-39 game, but that’s as close as the Foxes could get to the Panthers. Kaczmarek’s final three-pointer could only close the gap by 10 points after an 8-0 run by Oswego. “I thought we played extremely hard and I’m proud of our kids. We were right there,� Yorkville head coach Mike Dunn said. “They’re very talented and we’re not to that level yet. If we keep working hard, that’s where we want to get to.
They made some easy baskets at the end that really hurt, but I’m extremely proud of our kids. We held them to 54 and a few of them were free throws at the end. We just have to be able to finish.� Oswego will resume Southwest Prairie Conference play on Friday at Oswego East in the annual Crosstown Challenge at 6:30 p.m. Yorkville will be on the road, traveling to Morris on Friday at 6 p.m. for a Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference showdown.

LEFT: Newark junior Will Clausel fights for a rebound with two Kaneland defenders earlier this season. RIGHT: Senior Jack Clausel scores in the paint during the 3rd place game at the Plano classic against Burlington Central. Newark head coach Rick Tollefson, a Yorkville grad, played against Tracy when they were in high school. “[Tracy was] a very good player, but he played more like Will,” Tollefson said. “He didn’t play point guard like Will, but was built more like that.” There were certainly no hard feelings from Tracy when Jack passed him on the scoring list. He knows just how talented they are. “Our family is a big sports family, and basketball has always been No. 1,” said Tracy Clausel, a Newark Hall-ofFamer who was inducted in 2008. “It’s no surprise. I am happy for both of them.”
Jack is on pace to move up in the alltime scoring list before the season ends. Next up is Larry Hilt (1983-86), who scored 1,414 points and holds the No. 7 spot. The No. 1 spot belongs to Kyle Anderson with 2,280 points. “It’s very good to see him do this because he missed most of last year and that was big. He’s done well with only three years,” Will said of Jack. “It’s pretty incredible what he’s done.” The Norsemen have three 1,000 point scorers on the team, which is a first for Tollefson in his 10 years as head coach. Senior Evan Schomer hit the milestone in the win against Seneca on Jan. 12.

Take a look at the top 15 all-time leading scorers in Newark boys’ basketball history, and you’ll notice something unique on the honor roll. Tracy Clausel, Jack Clausel and Will Clausel are among the top 14 in Newark history. Tracy played with the Norsemen from 1975-78 and scored a total of 1,358 points. Now, his nephews are making history this season with the Norsemen. Jack, a 6-foot-6 center/forward surpassed his uncle in total points on Jan. 15. He is currently eighth overall with 1,398 points. Will, a 6-foot-3 point guard, joined the 1,000th point club on Tuesday when he hit the milestone during the team’s win over Paw Paw in the second round of the Little Ten Conference Tournament. Although scoring points is nice, both Jack and Will, who began playing varsity basketball as freshmen, agreed – the team’s success is their main focus.
“It doesn’t matter, really,” Jack said of his personal accomplishments. “What matters is we win games and try and win a state title – that’s the goal.” “It just comes with it,” Will Clausel added. “We just try to go out there and win.” Jack tallied his 1,000th point early in his junior season before sitting out most of the year with an injury. Will stepped up in Jack’s absence. “He’s really come a long way since his freshman year,” Jack said about Will. “He scored a little his freshman year, but not a lot. Then last year, he had to be forced into that role as a scorer and he’s done really well. I’m super proud of him.” The brothers have both been at full strength for the most part this year, and when Jack passed his uncle Tracy in points, he was both happy and surprised at the accomplishment. “Everyone in my family talks about how good he was and how he was an amazing player,” Jack said. “It’s cool to pass him.”

SPORTS GIRLS BASKETBALL: YORKVILLE 61, OSWEGO 27
A productive night Foxes win in Communities vs. Cancer event By KRISTIN SHARP ksharp@kendallcountynow.com Lauren Daffenberg may not be as experienced as her senior teammates, but the Yorkville sophomore can certainly shoot the ball as well as any veteran in the Foxes’ lineup. Daffenberg scored all 10 of her points in the first half to help set the tone in Saturday’s Communities vs. Cancer event as Yorkville defeated visiting Oswego 61-27. “Lauren’s having a really nice year and playing within herself,” Yorkville head coach Luke Engelhardt said. “It’s nice to have someone spread the court and knock down open shots. She’s someone who can drive and kick and they’re playing off each other real well.” Yorkville (19-2) opened the game with an 8-1 lead and led 15-5 after sophomore Lindsay Harrison’s basket opened the second quarter. Katie Nolan (13 points) came up with a steal and subsequent jump shot for a 20-6 advantage, and Oswego called its second timeout with 4:20 to play in the half. The Panthers (4-22) finished the half on a 9-0 run, sparked by Gemma Keegan’s basket and a steal from Kia Dwight (8 points). The run helped the Panthers cut their deficit to single digits, 24-15, at intermission. “We got off to a slow start and we battled back. We cut it down to nine and thought we were right where we were supposed to be,” Oswego head coach Dave Beebe said. “We talked at halftime about making adjustments, got a stop after that, and it seemed like we didn’t get another stop the rest of the game.” Yorkville’s Sydney Beach started the second half with a three-pointer and Audrey Macciomei hit one from beyond the arc for a 40-19 game. Daffenberg assisted Harrison’s basket in

the fourth to lift the Foxes to a 26-point advantage, and Bekah Hahn came off the bench to sink Yorkville’s sixth three-pointer of the night for a 51-24 score. The Yorkville defense held Oswego to five points in the final quarter of play to seal the non-conference win. “We missed some shots in the first half; we were a little bit uptight,” Engelhardt said. “In the second half it wasn’t just action and reaction. We were productive with our actions and had some nice spurts with turnovers that turned into points. That put it away a little bit.” Sectional seeds will be released by the IHSA on Thursday, with Yorkville hosting one of four regionals under the 22-team Benet Sectional. In the meantime, the Foxes have four games remaining on their regular season schedule, traveling to Kaneland on Friday for a 7 p.m. tip. “We’re healthy, which is the most important thing,” Engelhardt said. “Defensively, we’re playing much better than we were three months ago and in spurts we’re playing well offensively. I still don’t think we’re at our peak, and we don’t want to be. We’re starting to play good basketball and we’re three months in, so you expect to at this point.” Photos by Steven Buyansky for Shaw Media Oswego has two games remaining, traveling to Oswego East next Friday Yorkville’s Lauren Daffenberg puts up a layup against Oswego’s Gemma Keegan during for the annual Crosstown Classic.

The amazing transformation of Dee-Dee Carter, Fitness Diva By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com
D
ee-Dee Carter is a woman with many titles. Carter went from being a 400-pound wife and grandmother working in the mortgage industry to an in-shape nutritionist specializing in child and sports nutrition, author, certified weight management consultant, motivational speaker, video producer, teacher and aspiring model who is now known as “The Fitness Diva.” It took the Yorkville resident about two years to make the transformation from a size 36 to a size 8, but she is happier and healthier than ever. The weight loss was not for vanity purposes – it was a life-or-death situation. She either had to make a change or else she would face possible mortality and an unhappy existence for the rest of her days. “I knew I could do this. With
God’s help, I can do anything,” Carter said. “I could not give up because my life was on the line.” The journey started in January of 2014. That’s when her doctor let her know her kidneys were failing. If she did not start taking better care of herself, she would have to turn to dialysis – a treatment that is needed when the kidneys can no longer take care of your body’s needs. When Carter realized this, she cried. “When the doctor said I was on my way to dialysis if I don’t do something right away, that was it for me,” Carter said. From that point on, Carter swore off greasy, fried fast food and sugary drinks. She promised herself she would eat a clean diet and drink more water. She also started to work out. A lot. By August of 2014, the first 100 pounds were gone. In March of 2015, another 100 pounds had disappeared. As of January 2016,
LEFT: In January of 2014, Dee-Dee Carter was at her heaviest – nearly 400 pounds in a size 36. ABOVE: At the end of December 2015, Dee-Dee Carter was happy to be a size 8 and healthy. Carter had lost 250 pounds. “I lost a whole person,” said Carter, who is in her 50s. “I just had to keep going. I had a lot of close people cheering me on. I’m still working on those last 10 pounds. I’m a size 8 and I’m happy, but I’m not there yet.” Carter knows her weight gain did not happen overnight. She said she was heavy her whole life and was abused as a child, so food became her comfort. “It was a never-ending battle,” said Carter. The battle, however, carried over to Carter’s husband, Reginald. Tall and slim with a resemblance to Derek Jeter, he never dealt with weight issues. Any time he wanted to go to IHOP to get all-you-can-eat pancakes loaded with butter and syrup, he did. While Dee-Dee was in the midst of her weight loss journey, Reginald started to get headaches and felt light-headed. He knew

Continued from page 1 own. She did this. She works hard at what she does, and the before and after pictures show that.” The weight loss also inspired DeeDee to switch careers. Before, she was a lot quieter as a woman working in the mortgage industry. She left that business during her weight-loss transition and went back to school to become a certified weight management consultant and personal nutritionist. She currently teaches classes at the Plainfield Park District, is writing a book about her weight loss journey (with hopes it will be published by this summer), is in the process of producing a workout video and has aspirations to model. Dee-Dee has been featured on social media and local TV programs. She is hoping the exposure will inspire others
who are struggling with their weight. “For the rest of my days I want to help people, especially the obese,” said Dee-Dee, who wanted to thank William “Bill” Apostolos Jr. for all the encouragement. “I don’t want anyone to ever go through what I went through.” Carroll, who has been Dee-Dee’s trainer for about a year, has been at Planet Fitness for three years and has been in the business for six, said his client is an inspiration to everyone. “She is one of those that is a dramatic success story,” Carroll said. “A lot of the time, people come in for a few months and then flake off. She stuck around and put in all the work and got a nice success story out of it. People want to have the success story, but they don’t want to put the work in. Anyone can be successful in this industry, but you just have to put the work in, and she has put the work in. I wish everyone was like her.”

CHANGES
CABIN FEVER SALE
CHANGE can be good and is even necessary. For salvation we must repent (change our mind) and be baptized for the forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:38). As a Christian the CHANGE must be on going because of the world in which we live. Scripture puts it this way in Romans 12:2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what the will of God is, that which is good and acceptable and perfect. As Christians we are not to be like the world but CHANGING and renewing our mind daily to do God’s will, not my will or desires!

Coming Smile! It Will Make You andYour Others Happy! Into Own
There is a very interesting psychology experiment “You will keep in perfect where you trick people into either smiling or frowning without their knowing it (by telling them to peace those whose minds hold a pencil either in their teeth, to make them are steadfast, smile, or with their pursed lips, to make them because they trust in you.” frown), and while they hold that facial position you tell them a joke. Those who are holding the smile — Isaiah 26:3 NIV usually rate the joke as being funnier, presumably because they are already halfway laughing to start with. The moral of the experiment, if experiments t a certain age, we realize that our islives can bewesaidcannot to havelive a moral, that by our anyone bodies else’s standards. Despite often thetake fact that we are social the lead in making us feel happybeings, or sad, and other people’s opinions matter to us, we must sooner or later or calm anxious.

So twenties, for others this realization until in their smile,never even when don’ttheir feel much smiling, forties or even fifties, and some may comeyouinto own,like living their perhaps especially whenmay you don’t feel muchbe entire life by someone else’s planor for them.

DOWN THE GARDEN PATH Richard Hentschel to a high set of standards to ensure it will perform in your yard. Testing and evaluation occur in a number of locations throughout the United States so you can be comfortable knowing that you can purchase the seed or a transplant at the garden center and have a quality plant. There also is a growing trend to purchase what is known as heirloom, or antique or open pollenated, vegetables. These vegetables can provide fruit with a lot of visual character and when eaten, a different texture and flavor. If you have problems in the garden with diseases, and in particular the soil diseases, it is best to stick with the hybrids since you cannot treat for these diseases and save your plants. If you are a flower gardener, similar terminology exists for perennials. If Phlox is on your shopping list, see if you can find one that indicates a resistance to powdery mildew. If roses are your thing, then look for resistance to black spot and powdery mildew. If you are shopping for dwarf apple trees, apple scab and cedar apple rust are two diseases you would want resistance to. Starting this early allows you to plan out the garden, figure out the varieties you will need to order from the catalogs and what will be at your favorite garden center. Planning ahead also allows for choosing those varieties that will fit in the space you have, especially the vegetable garden. The catalogs will again help you with additional information. Vine crops will be listed as a “bush

type” meaning the plant will not vine out but rather stay compact. Tomato plants can be either indeterminate or determinate types. Determinate varieties limit their size while still producing tomatoes, while indeterminate varieties will just continue to grow in size while it produces fruits all summer.

Thursday, February 4, 2016
Garden catalogs began to show up in early January and will continue a while. As you peruse and plan, take note of the details. There may be plenty of phrases and initials that you know, but there may be some new to you too. Vegetable descriptions will often include a number of initials at the end. These usually signify that the vegetable has been bred with disease resistance, or tolerance to a disease, specific to that variety. A tomato, for example, may have several initials: V, F, N, TMV for resistance to Verticillium and Fusarium wilt, Nematode resistance and Tobacco Mosaic Virus, respectively. Cucumbers can wear the initials CMV, CVYV and PM. These stand for Cucumber Mosaic Virus, Cucumber Vein Yellowing Virus, Powdery Mildew and a new one in the last couple of years is DM for Downy Mildew. Just about every improved hybrid variety of vegetable will carry some level of disease resistance. Downy Mildew also is a new disease to basil, which was an easy-to-grow herb in the past. This is a different strain than the one on cucumber and so far the best we have is an intermediate resistance to DM for some varieties, so read carefully. Another term frequently used to promote a variety is the designation F1. This means that this variety is a first generation cross by two known parent plants and contains the best genes from both the male and female plants. This F1 hybrid can be a better performer, provide a higher yield, and have more disease resistance or tolerant than either parent. Vegetables, just like flowers, can have the AAS designation. This All-America Selection designation signifies that this variety has performed

FOOD Lentils – and other legumes – hold promise for 2016 By LISA ABRAHAM More Content Now So long, 2015 – the year that brought us Nordic cuisine. Did you miss it? Me, too. Not too much of that herring made it to central Ohio – which might or might not be a good thing, depending on your perspective. Here we sit on the precipice of a new food year, and I am duty-bound to inform you about what to expect in 2016. I am proclaiming 2016 the year of the lentil – and I’m in good company. The United Nations has proclaimed 2016 the International Year of Pulses (leguminous crops harvested for use as dry grains). Look for lentils to replace kale as the new “it” food – not just lentils but chickpeas and dried beans of all varieties. Hummus and falafel for everyone! Adding protein-packed legumes to our weekly meal plans is a great way to eliminate cholesterol-laden meat from our diets and to lessen the carbon footprint from meat production. Plus, beans are mighty tasty.
Getting everyone to cook beans, however, might prove more challenging this year. Indicators suggest that interest in cooking at home – which peaked during the 2008 recession – is waning. The shift is due in part to constraints on time. In 2016, look for more “assembly dinners” and for meal-delivery services to grow more popular.

Meet the Team – The Team has changed… wishing Crysty Wullbrandt and her family well wishes as they make a move to the Phoenix area this month. We will miss YOU Crysty! Kelly Michelson 630.551.1111
kelly@michelsonteam.com kelly.michelson@bairdwarner.com My husband and I recently bought a home with Kelly and Josh Michelson. We loved them! They went above and beyond what I would have expected. I know I sent texts at 9pm on a Sunday and got an immediate response no matter what time of day it was. Either Kelly or Josh were always available to show us houses during the time and day we picked. There was never any waiting, we always asked Kelly a million questions and she was so nice and answered everything thoroughly. Kelly and Josh I feel like genuinely care about their clients. I wouldn’t recommend anyone else besides the Michelson team!
Beth David 815.325.3563
beth@michelsonteam.com beth.david@bairdwarner.com Working with Beth David has made the process of selling my mother’s house so much easier for me and my family. She was always forthcoming with answers to any questions we had. Beth’s skill was obvious as she dealt with the problems we encountered. She was very professional in her treatment of the buyers, agents and financial issues. I am very grateful that Beth David was with us every step of the way, and we reached a successful closing date . Thank you, thank you, Beth!
Patty Harbin 630-777-5861
patty@michelsonteam.com patty.michelson@bairdwarner.com There are many Realtors who can sell your home, but there are few who are true problem solvers. When problems arise, most Realtors have few resources at their disposal. With Patty Harbin, when problems arose, she didn’t throw up her hands. Instead she worked even harder to find the solution that we needed. We contacted Patty to enlist her to sell our home. Unfortunately, we learned that our home value would not support a sale or a refinance to lower our extremely high interest rate. However, Patty didn’t walk away from us even though there was no financial gain for her. She engaged several resources for us which enabled us to remain in the home we love! What more could you ask from a Realtor? We are customers for life.
Brenda Weaver 630.330.6195
brenda@michelsonteam.com brenda.weaver@bairdwarner.com We are fortunate to have a new addition to the Michelson Team with Brenda Weaver joining us this year. She brings to the team a wealth of knowledge, experience, high integrity, & a caring heart! Brenda helped me downsize from a 2,000 sq. ft. townhouse to a 1,000 sq. ft. apartment at a senior center. Brenda was extremely helpful leading up to everything. She was able to offer suggestions for staging my home to attract buyers, and made recommendations for agents to handle the estate sale. Brenda gave me peace of mind, and made the process easier. She knew her business yet she was very helpful and accepting and patient. It gave me the feeling of confidence that I could get through it. adno=0366149

The day before the Super Bowl, Fox Valley area youth will be participating in the “Souper Bowl of Caring.” This annual nationwide event empowers young people to help those in their community who go hungry due to lack of resources. For the 10th year, Fox Valley United Way is partnering with local grocery stores, and recruiting student volunteer and adult mentors who will greet shoppers and accept food and monetary donations. Shoppers are asked to consider purchasing one of a suggested list of items and leaving it in the Souper Bowl of Caring bin near the store’s exit. Or they may provide cash donations – each dollar donated gives the pantries the ability to purchase $8 worth of food from the Northern Illinois Food Bank. These contributions provide significant support to the Aurora Area Interfaith Food Pantry and the Kendall County Food Pantry. Last year, this event gathered 3,200 pounds of food and collected over $7,800. Fox Valley United Way volunteers will be at each participating food store from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 6, to accept donations. This year’s locations include Jewel-Osco stores on Eola Road and W. Galena Boulevard in Aurora, Veterans Parkway in Yorkville, Orchard Road and Route 30 in Oswego and N. Route 47 in Sugar Grove, as well as Prisco’s Family Market on Prairie Street in Aurora.
