Bus info coming via email School board weighs placing routes in paper

By KATHY FARREN news@kendallcountynow.com Yorkville School District 115 parents will be notified of the new consolidated school bus stops this week by email.

Dean Romano, assistant superintendent for finance and operations, told the Board of Education on Monday that the new routes have been completed.

This year the total number of

bus stops was reduced from 1,254 to 793.

The changes will keep the maximum walk from home to their bus stop to a quarter-mile or less for students in kindergarten to sixth grade and a half-mile or less for middle school and high school students.

Romano recommended not publishing the full list of bus stops in the Kendall County Record this year as has been done

in the past. He said the list might be read by people with ulterior motives.

However, board members disagreed, with Dr. Lynn Burks saying, “You can’t hide bus stops.”

Board member Ashley Shields said people have been voicing concerns about the new bus stops on Facebook and many people have responded to them that the routes would be published in the Record.

“We have to put something in the Record about where to find the routes,” Shields said.

Board member Tom Kozlowicz said, “We’ve almost trained parents to look at the Record.”

Kozlowicz asked if not publishing was a police recommendation and Romano responded that it was something “the sheriff was in agreement with.”

Romano said it might be necessary to publish the routes for another year and agreed to see about at least placing a notice in the Record of where the routes could be found online.

Five-year police contract approved

By DAN WAITT dwaitt@shawmedia.com The Yorkville City Council on Tuesday approved a fiveyear agreement with the union representing the city’s police officers.

The agreement between the city and the Fraternal Order of Police Labor Council calls for graduated wage increases in each of the first three years of the contract, beginning with a 3.25 percent increase the first year; 3.5 percent the second year and 3.435 percent in the third year. For each of the fourth and fifth years of the contract, the increases would be 3 percent.

The council vote was 7-0 in favor of the contract.

Mayor Gary Golinski said the agreement reflects a high level of respect for the law enforcement officers in Yorkville and the work they are doing in the community.

“The main thing is that we have a five-year contract, which in many communities is unheard of,” Golinski said.

While Golinski said the increases for Yorkville officers are higher compared to previous contracts, he noted that the department went two years in 2010-11 without pay increases.

Officers received increases in previous contract years of 2 percent in 2012; 2.75 percent in 2013 and 3 percent in 2014.

The negotiations process, which began more than a year ago, also was completed without the involvement of attorneys, Golinski said, which he said saved the city an estimated $60,000.

Republican has not faced a challenger for seat since initial race to fill vacancy

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com Kendall County State’s Attorney Eric Weis announced this week he intends to seek a fourth term of office. Weis, a Republican who has been state’s attorney since 2006, said he will run in the Republican primary election next March.

Weis won a hotly contested election nine years ago against Yorkville attorney Boyd Ingemunson to fill out the remainder of then-state’s attorney Tim McCann’s term.

McCann vacated the seat in 2005 when he was named an associate circuit court judge.

Weis won re-election twice more in 2008 and 2012 but has not been challenged in either the primary or general elections.

“We run every election like there is going to be one and obviously if someone decides to do so, we will address that individual candidate,” he said, adding that he didn’t want to see the campaign go negative if someone else entered the race.

“Personally I’m always of the opinion that you run your campaign how you run your life, and I have to live with every decision that I make,” Weis said.

Preventing crime, Weis said, is important, as is getting the word out about the dangers of drug abuse and domestic violence. He added that there is one type of case that is unfortunately increasing.

“We still see an increase every year over the number of sex crimes against children,” Weis said.

“That’s one of those things I wish I could report every year have gone down but unfortunately they haven’t.”

However, Weis added that county residents frequently question him about an investigation that concluded earlier this year into how Kendall County Board members collected mileage and per diem payments for attending meetings.

“The opinions are one way or another and I can respect both opinions on both sides,” Weis said.

“You have to do what’s right, you have to investigate it and you have to make a determination.”

He said it was his job to determine if there was a criminal element to the case.

A committee of the County Board voted earlier this year to settle the amounts board members were asked to pay back and all those per diems have been paid.

Weis said that he would like

to see the board’s per diem and mileage reimbursement systems changed.

“We have made recommendations … that these changes still need to occur whether or not the County Board members decide that’s a good thing is up to them, and ultimately the voters have to decide if they want those changes,” Weis said. “I hope the board takes action and rectifies this situation so it doesn’t happen again. But until they do, I think the reality is that it will happen again.”

Weis said he also gets asked a lot about the Illinois Supreme Court ruling in favor of local radio station owner Larry Nelson.

The judgment said citizens and the media can file Freedom of Information Act requests with state’s attorney’s offices.

Nelson has been filing the requests with Weis’ office trying to get copies of emails sent by assistant state’s attorneys.

Weis denied some of the FOIA requests, saying they couldn’t be filed against his office.

Nelson responded by filing the lawsuit in 2010, which led to the ruling from the Supreme Court.

Weis has said that he is complying with the FOIA requests that Nelson keeps filing with his office.

Board balks at proposed school rental fees

By KATHY FARREN

POSTMASTER: Please send change of address forms to Kendall County Record, c/o Shaw Media, P.O. Box 250, Crystal Lake, IL 60039-0250.

Weis earned a Bachelor of Science degree from North Central College in 1994 and went on to law school where he earned his Juris Doctorate and graduated cum laude from Northern Illinois University College of Law in 1997.

He began his legal career in 1997, when he was sworn in as an assistant state’s attorney for Kendall County after working for two years as a law school intern with the office.

Prior to his elecEric Weis tion as state’s attorney, Weis was the first assistant state’s attorney of Kendall County, where he served as the chief felony prosecutor.

Weis mentioned his time as a prosecutor with Kendall County and his record, both in and out of the courtroom, as reasons why voters should re-elect him.

“I truly enjoy my job, I really do.

I don’t necessarily like the political side of things some days, but I truly love what I do as a prosecutor representing those in court that can’t represent themselves,” Weis said. “As long as I have that passion and drive to do it, I want to hopefully continue to do it as long as the voters want me to do it.”

news@kendallcountynow.com The Yorkville School Board sent proposed facility rental fees back to the drawing board Monday night – with directions to lower them.

Dean Romano, assistant superintendent for finance and operations, presented a schedule of proposed fees for renting each room in the district. It suggested prices based on seven types of renters (from the city’s recreation department to for-profit organizations) and four building types (from small elementary schools to the high school).

After meeting with some groups that rent space in district schools, Romano said he saw that his original numbers were high compared to other districts.

He then reduced the number of categories of renters (from nine to seven) and reduced the costs

from an earlier presentation to the board. At that time, the rental fees were based on covering not only the cost of custodians and utilities, but also the district’s long-term debt of $86 million from building the schools.

Romano said some groups pointed out that the school buildings would exist whether they used them or not. Taking long-term debt out of the equation reduced rental fees from three and a half cents to .35 cents per square foot per hour, he said.

Based on these rates, it would cost up to $35 an hour (for a for-profit organization) to rent the gym at Yorkville Intermediate School and up to $60 an hour for the gym at Yorkville Middle School.

He offered the example of the Yorkville Basketball Club, which serves 100 percent district residents and would get a 40 percent discount off the top rate. The space

they used this year would cost $10,500 with the proposed rates.

Board members balked at the size of the fees.

“They’re too high for kids’ programs. These are feeder programs.

A lot of these organizations donate a lot,” Dave Dockstader said. “For an art class with only four or five kids, the cost is outrageous.”

Dr. Lynn Burks said the fees would “price people out of our district.”

Romano said the fees were 60 percent less than Oswego School District 308, where, he said he was told, the fees are $50 an hour to use a gym.

However, Dockstader said he’s coached traveling sports teams and “never faced costs like these.”

“I fought to get into these gyms years ago. Some day we may have a referendum and we need people to vote for it,” he said.

Burks added, “These buildings

were built by taxpayers.”

Tom Kozlowicz noted that one reason the district hasn’t had any problems with local groups using the buildings is that they feel they are theirs.

“It’s better to see kids here than on the streets,” Kozlowicz said.

Dockstader added that the district’s newer schools were designed so that the gyms could be rented after school hours with limited access to the rest of the building. “I want to see people use them,” he said.

Superintendent Tim Shimp suggested that if groups make donations to the district, or are made up entirely of district residents, they wouldn’t have to pay a fee or would pay a capped amount.

Burks questioned the reasoning for setting up a new schedule, saying, “We did have a structure.”

Dockstader said, “It was a small town structure.”

Among items in agreement: stipends Yorkville School Board OKs one intended to reward length of service more section for 3rd grade in fall • POLICE

Continued from page 1 The agreement covers some 22 sworn officers in the city. The contract is retroactive to May 1, 2015, and will continue through April 30, 2020.

A starting officer with an associate degree would make $50,284 in the first year of the contract and $58,966 by the end of the contract.

An experienced officer with a bachelor’s degree and more than five years on the force would make $71,246 in the first year of the contract and $83,548 by

the end of the fifth year of the contract.

The 24-page document also includes terms on uniforms, vacation, healthcare benefits, education assistance, overtime pay, holidays, sick leave, stipends for canine officers and discipline and substance abuse policies.

Among the stipulations in the contract is a longevity stipend for officers who have been with the department for a certain number of years. The stipend for an officer who has been with the department between six and nine years is $750. An officer with between 14 and 20 years on

the force would earn a stipend of $1,500.

Such clauses help to attract and keep veteran officers on the force, officials say.

The average length of service for Yorkville officers is just over seven years. There are two officers on the force with more than 20 years of service.

Golinski said the council was pleased with the relatively smooth process with the contract.

“There is a lot of good communication,” Golinski said. “The City Council is supportive of our police department.”

By KATHY FARREN news@kendallcountynow.com There will be a third section of third grade at Yorkville Grade School this fall.

Board of Education members agreed to add another third-grade teacher there “due to student needs” after two parents made the case for the move during the public comment portion of Monday’s board meeting.

The women, who both have children in that grade, called the class “a difficult group.” As a result, one said, “There’s not as much teaching and learning as needed as all classroom

time is spent on classroom management.”

There is not time for the teachers to give students added help they need because of disruptions, and one said she paid for a tutor to help her daughter. They said they were concerned that when their children reached intermediate school in a year, they wouldn’t be prepared.

They said they had taken their concerns to the principal and to Superintendent Tim Shimp, who they reported were supportive of their concerns.

“I understand that 25 to 27 students is a manageable number. But if any group

needs to be split, this one does,” one mother said. “It would be a positive move for kids with behavior issues and for those who are gifted.”

Both mentioned looking at putting their children in private schools if the class was in two classrooms instead of three.

District Human Resources Director Troy Courtney told the board Monday that he is also watching the registration numbers for kindergarten at Bristol Grade School and third grade at Grande Reserve Elementary School to see if added sections are needed when school starts Aug. 31.

Board rehires teacher, accepts resignations

By KATHY FARREN news@kendallcountynow.com The Yorkville School Board approved the hiring back of a teacher Monday who was released in April during a reduction in force.

Stacy Judy, hired to teach fifth grade at Bristol Bay Elementary School, was the last of 21 people released who has “recall rights” under state law, according to district Human Resources Director Troy Courtney.

He noted that some of

the part-time teachers released last spring do not have recall rights, though one of them was also hired by the district Monday.

Resignations accepted

In other action Monday, board members accepted the resignation of Grande Reserve Elementary School Assistant Principal Crystal Dvorak, who also resigned as summer school principal.

Teachers who resigned include: Megan Sutter, Bristol Bay Elementary

School fourth grade; Elizabeth Rowoldt, Bristol Bay fifth grade; Nicole Zedrow, Yorkville Middle School seventh grade English; Sarah Roesler, Yorkville Grade School early childhood; Danielle Bozek, Yorkville High School special education; Amy Mahr, Bristol Bay second grade; Andrew Johnson, as Yorkville High School head girls’ soccer coach; Michael Jacobs, Yorkville High School physical education and driver education teacher and head boys’ soccer

New campus for Parkview

By DAN WAITT dwaitt@shawmedia.com Back to school for students at Parkview Christian Academy takes on a whole new – and larger – dimension this fall for grades 7-12 at the school.

They will be reporting for classes in what is essentially a brand new wing of Club 47 on Countryside Parkway in Yorkville.

The high school students had been meeting at Helmar Lutheran Church, about four miles south of Yorkville, a space which the school simply outgrew.

The new location northeast of Routes 34 and 47 puts the school in a more convenient and centrally located spot for families.

“The major advantage is the location,” Superintendent Deborah Benson said.

“It makes everything we do more efficient.”

Benson said the school was actively looking for a larger space and members of the school’s board knew Club 47 building owner Ron Walker.

The school leaders were able to arrange for some significant space changes in the building, she said.

The new school setting includes more office and classroom space for the students, in addition to a large common area the school calls the multi-purpose room that will be used for chapel, lunch and extended learning activities.

The step is another in what has been a growth pattern for Parkview.

The school’s grade school will remain at Parkview School at 201 W. Center St. in Yorkville.

A fresh coat of light gray paint and white trim will greet students at the Club 47 site. The space includes a science lab, computer lab,

teacher; Michele Breyne, summer school principal; Warren J. Wolf, Yorkville Intermediate School and Autumn Creek Elementary School information literacy teacher; and Jamie Klenner, Yorkville Grade School early childhood teacher.

Those hired for co-curricular jobs at Yorkville Middle School were: Sarah Eastham and Brittany Cerevic, seventh-grade volleyball coaches; Reggie Kennedy, assistant football coach; and Nate Rahn, assistant

Parkview is accredited by both Christian Schools International and the North Central Association, Benson said.

Benson said the number one compliment she gets from parents is for the school’s “fantastic teachers.”

“The board has made an effort to be known in the community as a Christ-centered community,” she said.

While not affiliated with a specific denomination, Parkview remains true to its mission as a Christ-centered school, Benson said.

“We tell people upfront

what we believe and what we are going to teach – without apology,” she said.

But Benson said the school welcomes people of all faiths to the learning environment.

Students are drawn primarily from the Yorkville area, but come from all parts of the Kendall County.

The school offers needsbased tuition assistance totaling some $75,000 a year.

The school prides itself on treating each student individually.

“We focus on the fact that we are all uniquely created,” Benson said.

The students reflect that in respect they have for fellow students, she added.

The high school offers sports programs for girls and boys in basketball, soccer and volleyball. Softball is a new addition for the spring. Sports programs begin in fifth grade and continue through 12th grade.

The school’s athletic director is Don Davidson, who for many years was athletic director and a coach at Aurora Christian

School.

One of the bonuses of being next door to a health club (the multipurpose room has an access door to the gymnasium) is that students will be able to use the Club 47 facilities at specific times for physical education classes.

Athletic team events will continue to be played at Parkview Grade School for the younger grades and at Helmar Lutheran Church gymnasium for the upper grades, Benson said.

Parkview School began 17 years ago with seven students meeting in New Life Church. Enrollment in grades Pre-K to 12 is now about 310 students, Benson said. So far the school has graduated three high school classes.

There are programs in choir, visual arts and debate. The school hopes to plan a musical for 2015-16 to bring growth to the fine arts program.

In January, several students went on a mission trip to Haiti during the school’s “Winterim” or winter term.

boys’ soccer coach.

Yorkville High School coaches hired include: Lisa Green, assistant volleyball coach; Caitlin Graff and Jennifer Jones, assistant JV basketball cheerleading coaches; Andrew Johnson, head boys’ soccer coach; and Lauren Anderson, head girls’ soccer coach.

Brittany Cerevic was transferred from sixthgrade teacher at Bristol Bay Elementary School to seventh-grade English language arts at Yorkville Middle School.

The Mutual Ground sexual assault and domestic violence treatment agency is expected to open a small office inside the Kendall County Courthouse in Yorkville in October.

The office will allow advocates working for the domestic abuse treatment center to better assist victims who come to the courthouse, according to Kendall County State’s Attorney Eric Weis.

Mutual Ground has worked with the state’s attorney’s office for a number of years, Weis said, but this is the first time they will have their own space in the courthouse.

Currently, if a victim needs the help of a Mutual Ground advocate, they are assisted over the phone or have to wait for someone to travel from Aurora.

Weis said filing an order of protection can be a daunting experience for the victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.

“If you get frustrated with the situation, you’re not going to stick around,” Weis said. “This is something you desperately need in that courthouse.”

Weis said he has spoken to Chief Judge Tim McCann, Sheriff Dwight

Baird and Circuit Clerk Robyn Ingemunson about the need for the office and they are all supportive. He added that the space they plan to use is a 10-foot by 12-foot gun locker not being used near the entrance of the courthouse, close to the security station.

Weis said the location is ideal because it is a secure space that is still accessible to the public and Mutual Ground staff.

Many times, Weis added, domestic abuse cases are not the most “amicable situations.”

“If you are going to act out you’re going to act out in front of two or three armed deputies who are there literally at all times,” Weis said.

Mutual Ground is expected to provide their own desks, chairs and computers. Staff will be on site five days a week during a pilot program for a month, said Michelle Meyer, executive director of Mutual Ground.

The cost to get the office ready is estimated at about $500 to $700, according to Weis, which could come out of the county’s budget or else they can raise the funds privately. He added that a lease for the space is still being worked out between Mutual Ground that may cost a couple hundred dollars a month.

OUR VIEW

Reasons for optimism on Yorkville road construction City of Yorkville officials have said they are optimistic that construction will have progressed enough on Game Farm Road and Somonauk Street to permit sufficient vehicle access to Yorkville High School, the Yorkville High Freshman Academy and Yorkville Grade School by the end of this month. Students will return for the first day of class at the schools on Monday, Aug. 31.

As most motorists are likely all too well aware by now, Somonauk Street and Game Farm Road have been closed to through traffic for the past several months as contractors for the city rebuild the roads.

Unfortunately, Somonauk Street will remain closed from King Street to Tower Lane as construction proceeds. That means to reach the three schools, many

motorists will still have to travel through the construction zones on Route 34 and Ill. Route 47 to reach Game Farm Road.

We hope for the sake of all the parents, students and residents along the two roads that contractors are able to open Game Farm Road to King Street by the end of the month as city officials anticipate. If not, we will publish an update on the city’s contingency

plans here and on our website at kendallcountynow.com as soon as it becomes available.

In the meantime, we recommend all motorists continue to try to avoid all the road construction zones on the north side of town. If you must travel through the construction zones, please use extra caution, watch for workers and obey posted work zone speed limits.

The city’s planning and budgeting for the badly-needed reconstruction of Game Farm Road and Somonauk Street took years.

Motorists now stuck in traffic due to the construction should be able to find some solace in the knowledge that in the not-so-distant future, all the construction will be completed and driving around town will be considerably safer and easier.

Daniel Gray built this large gristmill of native limestone along the west bank of the Fox River in Montgomery in the early 1850s.

In design and function it was much like similar mills along the Fox River at Oswego, Yorkville, Millington and Millbrook.

Enterprising millwrights helped to build the Fox Valley Pioneer farmers were vital to settling the frontier, but so was an enterprising group of skilled businessmen. Pioneer millwrights closely followed the tide of settlement as it moved west, with saw mills and grist mills providing some of the first economic services for new frontier communities.

Pioneer millwrights were an interesting group of fellows. Millwrights had to know a little about an awful lot of things: how to identify the best spots for a dam, how to build a dam and millrace, how to build a mill building, how to build the milling machinery and how to operate the milling business after construction was finished.

In the early days, virtually everything in the mill was made of wood, from the building itself to the machinery the mill building housed. About the only non-wooden items in the earliest mills were the millstones in grist mills and metal saw blades in saw mills.

Two of the county’s first millwrights, John Schneider and Ebenezer Morgan, arrived here at about the same time. Schneider came west from New York to Chicago in 1832, and Morgan arrived with his family a year later, also from the Empire State.

Schneider first traveled west from Chicago to Capt. John Naper’s settlement on the DuPage

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

REFLECTIONS Roger Matile River, where he helped Naper build a dam and mill. In 1833, Schneider explored west of the DuPage and found an excellent mill site on the west bank of the Fox River at the mouth of Blackberry Creek. Schneider marked his claim and then went back to help Naper finish his mill.

Morgan claimed land along the small creek that would one day bear his name, located just south of Oswego.

The fall of 1833 saw the arrival of Levi Gorton and Benjamin Phillips from Pennsylvania and John and William Wormley, who walked to the Fox Valley from New York prospecting for likely land. All four men settled near what eventually became Oswego. The contributions of Gorton and the Wormleys to the area’s pioneer mill history would be considerable.

By late 1834, Schneider and Morgan both had primitive saw mills in operation, Schneider at his Blackberry Creek location and Morgan on Morgan Creek.

In 1835, the Clark family moved to Kendall County, with brothers Josiah, Joseph, Porter and Merritt settling along the

east side of what was called the Little Rock timber in modern Little Rock Township. With Schneider and Morgan sawing lumber for the arriving settlers, Merritt Clark decided that a grist mill to grind flour might be a good venture since the nearest place settlers could get flour ground was at Plainfield.

In 1836, he hired Levi Gorton and William Wormley to help build a dam across the Fox River just north of the brand new village of Hudson – soon to be renamed Oswego. Clark ground flour at his new mill, which was located on the west bank of the river, and then decided settlers might pay to buy some furniture for their new homes.

According to the Rev. E.W. Hicks, Kendall County’s earliest historian, Clark added a small chair manufactory at his corn mill. Hicks says Clark made wooden chairs at his mill in 1836, and noted that in 1876 some of them were still in existence and were valued by their owners.

Soon after, Clark apparently sold his business to Levi Gorton and his brother, Darwin, who built a better mill on the site, this one with real millstones and a better dam.

William Wormley again helped build the Gortons’ dam – something he had helped Clark to do, as well as for Samuel McCarty in Aurora.

The Gortons’ grist mill began operation in 1837, and probably helped Levi accumulate enough money to build an elegant Greek Revival limestone house on the bluff overlooking his mill and dam. The house still stands on Ill. Route 25 just south of the Oswego Presbyterian Church, although it now sports classical columns added in the 1940s.

The Gortons owned the business until selling to Nathaniel Rising and John Robinson in 1840. Rising and Robinson also expanded, improving the grist mill and adding a store.

In 1848, Johnson dropped out of the partnership and Zelotus E. Bell joined Rising to lay out the new village of Troy that encompassed both sides of the dam across the river, just north of Oswego.

In 1850, Rising sold Troy and the mills to William Parker, a native of Canada, who carried on the business until water-powered mills became obsolete some 40 years later.

Down near Millbrook in 1837, George B. Hollenback and a Mr. Eldering built a dam across the Fox River, and then cut a millrace into the rock beside the river. They then built both a saw and a grist mill, which were powered by an overshot water wheel, 24 feet in diameter.

Hollenback and Eldering sold out after four years, and the

mill, after doing good service for settlers in the area, was washed away by a particularly strong spring flood a few years later.

From Montgomery in the north to Millington in the southwest, mills sprouted along the banks of the Fox River in and near Kendall County.

Most of the county’s creeks also sported mills, with Waubonsie Creek in Oswego also powering, among other things, a broom factory. But the era of water power ended when steam engines became economical sources of power.

Then steam in its turn was made obsolete when the internal combustion engine was perfected. Improved transportation systems meant that flour and lumber could be shipped to the Fox Valley’s towns cheaper than it could be manufactured locally.

Today, we still use products, from lumber to flour, produced in mills, but the mills are far away. For the most part we can no longer see the common products we use on a daily basis being made in our own communities. Although gone and largely forgotten, the legacy of Kendall County’s pioneer millwrights lives through the progress they helped fuel.

FORUM Sheriff working in the hot sun

To the Editor: On Thursday, July 30, while traveling on Ill. Route 71 approaching the Kendall County Fairgrounds in Yorkville, I witnessed our own Kendall County Sheriff Dwight Baird in the hot sun directing traffic at the main entrance to the fairgrounds.

It is truly refreshing to see a public servant such as Dwight willing to do the not-so-glamorous duties instead of sitting behind a desk in the air-conditioned public safety center. We all should be proud to have a leader such as Sheriff Baird in charge of our county law enforcement.

Proposed bridge wasteful spending

To the Editor: To Kendall County Engineer Fran Klaas and the Kendall County Board: the proposed Eldamain bridge and roads that will eventually dump traffic onto Route 71 is a typical government nightmare, wasteful spending and more wasteful spending.

Since Eldamain Road will be four lanes from Jericho Road to Route 34 and, per Mr. Klaas, the remaining two lanes on Route 34 from Eldamain to Route 47 will be four lanes, with four lanes already being configured from Morris heading north. Finish this project allowing traffic to be able to get off at Routes 71, 52 and Route 80 if so desired.

If the concern is about truck traffic, after going through a few blocks of Yorkville it’s wide open country to Morris.

Letters to newspaper entertaining

To the Editor: I truly find Ed Warshak’s letters to the Ledger-Sentinel Forum every week quite entertaining. He is totally anti-Bruce Rauner despite the fact that our new governor is not even being given an opportunity to fail. Ed would love to just maintain the Madigan/Cullerton status quo that has produced a state bankrupt and unable to fulfill basic obligations.

Ed also said last week that Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is the “love child,” to use Ed’s words, of the Koch brothers.

I guess that the hundreds of millions of dollars that George Soros has donated to countless Democrat candidates doesn’t really amount to anything that resembles political support for left-wing office pursuers.

Ed, things work both ways.

Donations to political PACs come from both sides of the aisle but I guess when a Democrat is given millions it is a wise investment and when a Republican gets a donation it is undue influence-peddling in Ed’s narrow mind.

No to funding for Kennedy Road trail

To the Editor: The Aug. 6 Record headline, “Kennedy Road trail gets support” means six of eight Yorkville aldermen can count on votes from bicycle types for re-election by spending most of the $1.7 million cost using state grants.

This money from a bankrupt state’s highway funds should be spent for vehicular, not recreation, needs.

Two principles of public finance are violated by this funding of bicycle paths: user fees and urgency. Those benefiting from public investment should pay the cost. Urgency is the necessity measure which justifies taxing even the poor (the widow’s mite) to provide a public good.

My round trip on Kennedy Road about 11:30 a.m. Aug. 7 encountered significant traffic. Much of the road is twolane and only 22 feet wide and paved. Any 10-foot-wide bicycle path would require telephone pole displacement onto private property, eminent domain appropriation of much of the front lawns of a dozen or more homes and removal of maybe a half mile or so of big shade trees. The

maintenance of the railroad crossing in perpetuity must call for joyous Yorkville taxpayer celebrations.

A trip to Grande Reserve School along Grande Trail, which parallels Kennedy Road to the south, permits viewing a number of upscale developments, many bike and sidewalk trails and no one using them. No railroad crossings. No traffic. Plenty of unencumbered space for more trails. Why is not this advocacy group willing to raise money for these trails?

The grant system allocates money to legislative members’ constituencies essentially to help them get re-elected and usually is the misallocation of scarce capital, as is painfully evident in this instance.

Examine where fetal tissue ends up

To the Editor: Over the last several weeks the national news cycle has been saturated by Planned Parenthood and the secretly recorded tapes. Whether you believe or disbelieve the factual nature of the tapes, you might want to wonder where the tissue they talk about ends up.

Human fetal tissue has been used since the 1930s.

The first polio vaccine was grown using DNA from aborted fetal tissue. A Nobel Prize was awarded for this discovery in 1954. Vaccines have been grown using fetal tissue ever since. The manufacturers do not identify it as such on their websites but use medical terminology such as diploid tissue or fibroblasts.

Fetal lung and kidney cells are identified with names like RA 27/3 for rubella vaccines or WI-38 and MRC-5 used for MMR vaccines. These vaccines have been around since 1961. Manufacturers like Merck, GlaxoSmithKlein and Sonafi produce vaccines under names like Poliovax, Zostavax (chickenpox), MMR-V and Imovax (rabies).

The National Network for Immunization explains on their website the need for human fetal cells. An organization called Sound Choice Pharmaceutical Institute lists over 24 current vaccinations that use human fetal tissue.

The National Institute of Health spent over $76 million on tissue research in 2012. They financed projects using tissue for diseases

like Parkinson’s, AIDS, MS, Alzheimer’s and spinal cord injuries. Human fetal tissue, unlike stem cells, can provide researchers better material to develop medicines and therapies that may save millions from the devastation of these diseases. Animal tissue are too unpredictable for good research.

While the main character in the undercover films, Dr. Deborah Nucatola, was vilified for talking about money and tissues in the same sentence, you would be just as disturbed to listen to medical people talking about organ transplants. It costs money to properly handle, transport and store human tissue. Does not matter if it’s a heart from a 30-year-old man or lung tissue from a nine-week-old fetus, it has to be handled properly and that costs money to do so.

Lastly, rather than scream about shutting down Planned Parenthood, how about protesting against companies who use the fetal tissue for non-medical uses. One such company, Senomyx, used a cell line called HEK 293 to enhance flavors for low-calorie foods used by food manufacturers. They use a protein to establish taste in low-sugared products. Multinational food manufacturers, whose products grace the shelves of grocery stores and which you purchase daily, use Senomyx to help develop food products for consumption. Or the company called Neocutis and BioRestorative Cream to make old skin look younger.

Those companies and that market is where the protest should be directed, not Planned Parenthood. If you allow right-wing politicians to carry out their threats of closing Planned Parenthood and discontinue the use of fetal tissue they may handle, you may one day wonder why medicine is not doing anything to help defeat a disease you or a family member may suffer from but could be helped using fetal tissue research.

the future defense of the United States. Meanwhile, President Obama resorts to scare tactics, saying the only alternative for not agreeing to his deal is war with Iran in the near future, which is not the only option.

The embargo on Iran was working by putting Iran in a dire economic state and the embargo should be continued. Obama and Kerry’s deal of releasing $150 billion to Iran will solve their economic problem and will undoubtedly be used to send more munitions to the terrorists that have killed and are killing our soldiers in the Mid-East.

The deal allows Iran to continue its nuclear development without adequate inspections. Inspections are allowed only after a 24-day advance notice and inspections of military installations are not allowed. No U.S. personnel are allowed on the inspection teams; therefore, the inspections are virtually worthless. The whole deal is based on trusting Iran, which we know cannot be trusted.

After 10 years the deal ends and will allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon and they are currently developing an inter-continental missile capable of delivering a weapon.

Iran has vowed to eliminate Israel and destroy America.

There are alternatives to war with Iran; however, if necessary which would be best, a conventional war in the near future or a nuclear war with Iran when they get a nuclear weapon? Obama’s

deal only serves a short-term solution based on trusting Iran with a probability of a nuclear war later.

Would any sane person give ammunition to someone who has threatened to kill you?

Contact our senators and encourage a no vote on this terrible deal and a vote to override Obama’s veto.

On a local issue, I believe that any elected, taxpayer-paid official should live in and pay taxes in the electoral district where they are elected. Regarding the current Oswego Township road commissioner issue, a solution that would solve the problem now and in the future would be to abolish township government.

Townships were necessary years ago when there were large areas with sparse population and not many towns to provide a meeting place and services.

That is no longer the case.

When service functions continue, without the top administrator even being present, it proves that at the very least that position could be eliminated saving taxpayers’ money.

Townships are an unnecessary layer of government because counties now could provide all services. Eliminating townships would cause significant taxpayer savings because all township administrative positions would be eliminated.

Two men charged after property damage report KENDALL COUNTY RECORD The Kendall County Sheriff’s Office announced this week that two men are facing charges in connection with a property damage incident that occurred last March in the 2500 block of Light Road in unincorporated Oswego Township.

According to the sheriff’s office, Kyle Scheuerlein, a 22-year-old Shorewood resident, has been charged with criminal damage to property, and resisting/obstructing a peace officer, both Class A misdemeanors. A warrant was issued with a bond of $5,000, with ten percent to apply.

Timothy Trammell, a 28-year-old Aurora man, was charged with unlawful possession of a controlled substance, a Class 4 felony, unlawful possession of cannabis, a Class C misdemeanor and unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia, a Class A misdemeanor.

A warrant was issued with

a bond of $7,500, with ten percent to apply.

Scheuerlein is in custody at the Will County Corrections Facility on unrelated charges.

According to the sheriff’s office, on March 20 at approximately 7:25 p.m., sheriff’s deputies were dispatched to the 2500 Block of Light Road on a report of a criminal damage to property. The complainant reported a male subject had cut her tire following a verbal altercation about driving dangerously. Suspect and vehicle descriptions were provided by witnesses.

Shortly thereafter, deputies saw a vehicle in the area matching the description. Upon contact, a male subject fled on foot.

A search of the vehicle revealed cannabis, paraphernalia and other contraband.

Also recovered from the vehicle were a large number of “Sweet Tart” candies, which lab results found were laced with Xanax.

Route 47 hearing is next week KENDALL COUNTY RECORD The Illinois Department of Transportation will host a public hearing Wednesday, Aug. 19, on the preliminary engineering study to reconstruct Ill. Route 47 from Caton Farm Road to Ill. Route 71 in Yorkville.

The hearing will be conducted in an open-house format from 4 to 7 p.m. at the Yorkville Public Library, 902 Game Farm Road.

The proposed project includes reconstructing Ill. Route 47 with two lanes in each direction, a median with cable guardrail south of Ament Road and a twoway left turn lane north of Ament Road. Shoulders will be added south of Ament Road, with curbs and gutters north of Ament Road.

Additional right-of-way and easements will be required. Some residences will be relocated. Right-ofway acquisition and relocation assistance information will be available. No wetland impacts are anticipated. No noise mitigation is proposed.

The purpose of the hearing is to present proposed project information and potential impacts and to answer project questions and receive public comments.

IDOT personnel will be available to provide information, answer questions, and receive comments.

The hearing exhibits will be available for review for two weeks following the hearing on the project section of the IDOT website at idot.illinois.gov/projects/ il-47-project, at the District 3 office in Ottawa, and at the Yorkville City Hall.

All interested persons are invited to attend and participate. Comments received by Sept. 2 will be considered as the preliminary engineering study is finalized. The meeting room is accessible to persons with a disability.

Castle Bank to become First National Bank soon

By KATIE SMITH ksmith@shawmedia.com Beginning Sept. 8, Castle Bank will officially call itself First National Bank, although customers can expect all the same services, Castle Bank Market President Timothy Struthers said.

Castle Bank, which has a branch on Route 34 in Yorkville, became part of First National of Nebraska in 2002, and has operated as a division of First National Bank of Omaha since 2010, according to a news release.

“This has been a natural evolution. Both National and Castle have grown together very nicely over the last 14 years,” Struthers said. “We’re pretty proud of the association and pretty proud of their name and it just seemed like the right time to kind of attach ourselves formally with the company’s brand.”

The official switch, including changes to bank signs, is expected to take place Labor Day weekend.

The changes will not affect current customers’ banking, and will be more like a candy bar that has “a new wrapper with exactly the same ingredients,” Struthers said.

YORKVILLE BASKETBALL CLUB Tryouts For 2015-16 Season Girl’s Tryouts 5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th Grade Sunday, August 30 at 11:00am

Danielle Guerra - dguerra@shawmedia.com

Castle Bank will change its name to First National Bank on Sept.

8. Castle Bank has 14 banking branches, including a location in Yorkville and several other branches in Kendall County.

“First National Bank is well regarded and active in supporting dozens of communities throughout the Midwest that are very much like the communities we serve,” he said in the news release.

Castle Bank has 14 banking offices located in DeKalb, Kendall, Kane, Boone and McHenry counties in north central Illinois.

Identifying as First National Bank is a decision that might ultimately make the business more recognizable to customers who are new to DeKalb County, Struthers said.

He expects the “depth, breadth and reputation” of First National Bank, which

serves more than 100 locations across seven states, to benefit Kendall County.

“I think that as folks are more mobile today and they move between markets, I think First National will surely be more recognizable in the greater Illinois market than what Castle Bank is,” he said.

Debit cards, checks and any other banking tools branded with Castle Bank’s name can still be used under the new title, Struthers said.

“We will truly try to go from Castle Bank to First National Bank. Beyond that, really there would be no other changes,” Struthers said. “They’re very similar in reality.”

Coach: ‘She’s so competitive and so calm under pressure’ • WASHBURN

Continued from page 16 it’s her,” Yorkville girls’ bowling head coach Julie Renda said. “I’d love to see that happen.”

During the 2014 golf season, Washburn became the first female golfer in school history to represent the Foxes at the Class AA state tournament.

She shot an 83 at the regional (third overall) and an 81 at the sectional before finishing 62nd of 114 at the state finals. She also placed second overall at the Northern Illinois Big 12 Conference meet. It was her third year placing in the top 10 in the league.

Washburn, who has been golfing since seventh/ eighth grade, said the goal this year is to finish in the top 25-30 at the state tournament and perhaps win both the conference and the re-

gional title.

“We talked at the end of last year about the expectations she has for herself,” Yorkville head golf coach Tyler Bantz said. “She really wants to win and realistically, is expecting another state run. She was a little nervous at state last year and didn’t do as well as she wanted but I totally believe she has the ability to place in the top 25.”

Yorkville debuted its first full girls’ bowling team in the 2014-15 season, and Washburn became the first girls’ bowler in school history to move on to the sectional after she was one of the 10 individuals to move on without their team. Prior to that outing, she earned All-Conference honors.

At the sectional, Washburn fell short of qualifying for the state tournament.

That makes her want to experience it that much more this year.

“I’m just hoping to get to state,” said Washburn, who has been bowling in leagues since fifth grade.

“I don’t care how I do it or what place I get.”

“She’s one of our best bowlers ... she just had a bad outing [at the sectional],” Renda added. “I think she can [get to state]. She’s so competitive and so calm under pressure. If she’s struggling, she knows she’s struggling and doesn’t get too upset.”

In track and field, Washburn made her debut at the Class 3A state tournament after she placed second in the pole vault (clearing 100). Washburn was also a part of the state-qualifying and school record-breaking 4x400-meter relay team. She was also a part of the school record-breaking 4x200-meter relay team and had the Foxes’ best 300-meter hurdle time. “[In the spring], I didn’t

New Mexico firm completed work Continued from page 16 things where you have to stay ahead of the field. This is the next thing – people are really putting time into how their body works and moves and how you become bigger, stronger and faster. I think more high schools are really going to be pushing strength and conditioning programs.”

“A lot of high school teams emphasize strength and conditioning in the off-season. This is just going to capitalize on what we’ve

been doing,” Chatman added. “Lifelong fitness is the goal.”

The New Mexico-based Samson Equipment was used for this renovation.

Yorkville is one of the facilities highlighted on the company’s website. Although the photos of the facility are impressive, the nearly completed weight room is even more stunning in person.

A limited number of coaches and students have previewed the new facility.

Chatman and Schoonover both know everyone’s reaction is going to be the same when it is finally opened and

ready for use.

“They are going to be floored when they see it because it’s a complete change from what it used to be,” Chatman said. “We really put our heart and soul into it.

It really was a group effort.

We really made it as best as we could for the students.”

“Once everyone sees it, they will be very excited, and the ones that have seen it have asked, ‘Oh, when can we get in there?’”

Schoonover added. “It’s like, ‘Wow.’ They can’t believe we have this facility. It’s like a kid in a candy shop. It’s beautiful.”

know what to expect for pole vault. I thought it was a lot of fun and I ended up with a PR [personal record],” said Washburn, who has been pole vaulting since her sophomore year.

“Seeing those other girls get to the finals the next day, it seemed like they were best friends. I’m hoping to get to the finals.”

“Pole vaulting takes a long time to master, and she still has a long way to go,” added Draper. “She’s one of our best sprinters and had a chance to qualify for state” in the 300-meter hurdles.

Still in track and field mode, Washburn decided to compete in the Grand Haven Beach Vault competition in Michigan in early July.

She placed second in her di-

vision, clearing 10-0.

After that, Washburn took her annual summer trip to Denmark to help her aunt train for the Chicago Marathon. She was there for two weeks and ran anywhere between six and 13 kilometers every day.

Washburn has also played basketball, said she would probably run cross country if it didn’t interfere with the golf season so much and, if the Foxes had a girls’ football team, she’d probably be a part of that as well. Toward the end of a Powder Puff game last fall, she recorded an 80-yard game-winning touchdown for the junior team.

“She has such a wide array of talent,” Bantz said.

“One time, she was telling me how she went on a hike

in the morning, then played golf, then went skateboarding and then running at night. She just picks up sports so easily. If there was a way she could do every sport, she would. I don’t know how she does it. It’s crazy to see her do so well at so many different things.”

“Whatever she does, she’s good at it. She just has that talent and drive,” Renda added.

What fires up Washburn the most is her pure enjoyment for playing sports.

But, when asked what her favorite sport is, she said, “whatever is in season.”

“I just push myself to the next level and I want to compete with the girls who are next to me,” Washburn said. “It drives me to be better and keep up with them.”

SPORTS Yorkville’s new vision of fitness

Renovated weight room facility to open in September at high school

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com Ryan Chatman had a vision.

Now in his third year as Yorkville’s strength and conditioning coach, Chatman had a clear idea of what the Foxes’ new weight room should look like. He designed a draft and revised it several times until his vision of the perfect facility and the budget for the project was set.

For the most part, the weight room renovations are complete with the final touches being made this month. By September, the doors will officially open for all athletes and physical education students at Yorkville.

“It’s a game-changer,” Chatman said. “It’s going to change a lot for sure, just the potential.

This was the vision and now we can do different things and portray different styles of training that a lot of different high schools don’t do and a lot of high schools wish they could do.”

Construction on the new weight room started last year.

The old weight room was about 2,000 square feet and was too small for Yorkville – which has doubled in size over the past decade.

“This school was built for 800 kids and we’ve doubled that [to 1,628],” Yorkville athletic director Seth Schoonover said. “Now it can handle the growth that is going to happen in the future so that area is set.”

The new facility is about 4,000 square feet and includes a custom rig system, more pull-up bars, 25 yards of turf, 12 racks with inlaid platforms, 15 TRX stations, six cable columns, dumbbells and bumper plates. “[The custom rigs are] something that no other weight room in the country has,” Chatman said. “There are more pull-ups, more bars – it’s completely custom and we love that. It gives more stations for our athletes and it spreads them out more so they can do multiple things at each station.”

This was something in the works for the past five years. Not

Yorkville High School student athletes and physical education classes will be utilizing this new state-of-the-art equipment in the weight room.

“They are going to be floored when they see it because it’s a complete change from what it used to be. We really put our heart and soul into it.”

Ryan Chatman YHS strength and conditioning coach

only has the concept of strength and conditioning grown, but so has Yorkville. The facilities used just weren’t cutting it, and lots of the physical education classes were overcrowded and

divided up.

The old workout room has since been split in half. A wall was put up and it will be used as a cardio room and a driver’s education classroom.

“We had two classes a day in our smaller weight room,” said Luke Engelhardt, the assistant athletic director and head girls’ basketball coach who is also the department chair for physical education at Yorkville. “Now, there’s more room to open up gym space and scheduling has gone a lot smoother.”

Budgeting for the new equipment included a state grant as well as contributions from the Yorkville Sports Boosters.

“There wasn’t a single per-

son who didn’t agree we needed to upgrade,” Engelhardt said.

“There was a need for this, and when the opportunity came up, this was the time to make it one of the best facilities we could possible make it. We had great support from the upper administration, like [Superintendent] Tim Shimp, to make sure we had the budget for it.”

“We had to tweak a few things to fit in the budget, but it worked out,” Schoonover added. “We had to cut back on a few things to get what we got, but it led to what we have. We are a [bigger] school now, so we need to have the same facilities everyone else has, but also, the kids have bought in. For us to

compete at this level, we need to be in the weight room. To our coaches and to the kids’ credit, that part of it has already happened.”

Both Chatman and Engelhardt are 2004 Yorkville alum and former teammates. The times, the way things are conducted in the off-season and size of Yorkville certainly have changed since their time as high school athletes.

“Strength and conditioning have become really big,” Engelhardt said. “Things have trickled down from the pros to the college level to the high school level and it’s one of those

On par for state trifecta Yorkville’s Washburn excels as three-sport athlete

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com Yorkville senior Louisa Washburn isn’t just your average high school student athlete. She excels in three sports and is a multiple state qualifier for the Foxes.

In her junior year, Washburn became the first Yorkville female golfer to qualify for state. Months later in the girls’ bowling season, she became the first female to qualify for sectionals. In May, Washburn advanced to the track and

field state finals, qualifying in both pole vault and with the 4x400-meter relay team.

“She’s a super-hard worker and has a level of commitment that is on par with elite talent,” Yorkville head track coach Ben Draper added. “She doesn’t look for the easy way out when it is obvious hard work is the only way to accomplish something. That’s rare in athletes these days. That’s what sets her apart from her peers.”

Washburn, a lefty, is now preparing for her senior season and is hoping to accomplish the ultimate

goal – becoming a threesport state qualifier. It’s an obtainable accomplishment – something that Washburn and her coaches believe she can achieve before graduation.

“It’s a pretty realistic goal as long as I keep my mind in whatever season I’m in,” Washburn said.

“When it’s golf season, I really have to pay attention. In bowling, I know I really have to step it up and the same goes for track as well.”

“If anyone could do it,

RUTH LORD TUCH Born: April 23, 1926 Died: July 26, 2015

Ruth Lord Tuch, known to all as Mimi, died Sunday, July 26, 2015, in the Skilled Nursing Center of Maplewood Senior Residence in Bethesda, MD. The cause of death was a massive stroke, according to her physician.

Born April 23, 1926, the daughter of Dr. A. E. and Ruth (Sears) Lord, and educated through high school in Plano, Illinois, she attended Carleton College in Northfield, MN, earning a BA degree in 1947. While at Carleton

she was admitted to Phi Beta Kappa in her junior year and was valedictorian of her class.

She then attended the School of Advanced International Studies (SAIS) of Johns Hopkins University in Washington, D.C. earning a MA degree in 1948.

She became a foreign affairs analyst at the then super-secret Army Intelligence Agency.

Mrs. Tuch met her future husband, Hans (Tom) Tuch at SAIS. They were married in 1949 in Wiesbaden, Germany, Mr. Tuch’s first posting as a Foreign Service Officer. Her budding career ended abruptly since the State Department at that time did not permit FSO spouses to work. The Foreign Service essentially got two for one, since wives were expected to participate informally in their spouses’ foreign service careers, particularly in representational responsibilities.

Frequently when asked “Mrs. Tuch and what do you do?” she responded, “I count anchovies.”

The couple served in Wiesbaden, Frankfurt, Munich, Moscow, Sofia, Berlin, Rio de Janeiro, Brasilia, and Bonn with intermittent assignments in Washington. After Mr. Tuch’s retirement from the Foreign Service in 1985, they settled in Bethesda, MD and engaged in an active cultural life.

They subscribed to and supported the Arena Stage, Shakespeare Theatre, Studio Theatre and Roundhouse Theatre for many years. Their main engagement, however, was with music--opera, concerts and recitals. They subscribed to and supported the Washington Concert Opera, The National Symphony Orchestra, the Washington National Opera, the Summer Opera, the Washington Bach Consort, Vocal Arts DC and occasionally attended the MET in New York, the Philadelphia and Baltimore Opera companies. Their principal engagement since 1986 has been with the Wolf Trap Opera Company in Vienna, VA. Mr. and Mrs. Tuch were married for 65 years.

Mrs. Tuch is survived by her husband, her son, David and his

wife Helena in Sao Paulo, Brazil; by a daughter, Andrea and her husband Patrick Lannan in Santa Fe, NM; and by two sisters, Emily Leyshon in Prescott, AZ and Sally Bodi in Long Island, NY.

ELIZABETH M. WILSON Born: May 17, 1909 Died: Aug. 9, 2015

Elizabeth “Bette” M. Wilson, 106, of Yorkville, passed away on Sunday, August 9, 2015, at Hillside Rehabilitation and Care Center. She was born May 17, 1909, in Sugar Grove, IL, the daughter of the late Ruel H. and Hazel (Graham) Mighell.

Elizabeth attended and graduated from Sugar Grove schools, class of 1927. She was a 1935 graduate of Copley School of Nursing. Elizabeth started her career at Copley Hospital, also doing geriatric and private nursing and finished at Sunnymere Retirement Home in Aurora.

She was united in marriage to Alfred C. Wilson on November 28, 1937. She was a member of First United Methodist Church in Aurora, Sugar Grove United

FOR THE RECORD 5

Court training program begins RECORD NEWSPAPERS Kendall County State’s Attorney Eric Weis announced this week his office has implemented a new “court day” training program designed to keep law enforcement officers aware of new case law, legislative updates and procedures.

The program began Aug. 3 at the county courthouse in Yorkville.

Currently, Kendall County law enforcement officers are assigned one court date per month where they appear in court for any citations they have written or any trials they are involved in.

Starting this week, assistant state’s attorneys will conduct condensed versions

of training seminars for officers on a monthly basis. This training will occur prior to the regular court call scheduled for 1 p.m. The training will last 15-20 minutes and the topics will vary from month to month. Officers can request topics to be covered during the next month’s training.

“The ‘court day’ training program was suggested by one of my prosecutors during a staff meeting,” Weis said. “We worked out the logistics and I think that this training will only benefit law enforcement going forward.

This new method of training will allow officers within the county the same training and information on a timely basis. Officers will be made aware of new or changing

laws or procedures in a much quicker time frame.”

Weis continued, “This training will be at no cost to the law enforcement agency nor will it require any additional cost for the officer to attend the training as he/she is already here for his/her court appearance.

“Finally, officers will be able to ask questions face-toface with a familiar assistant state’s attorney who they are comfortable with and trust.

I think that it will be a winwin for law enforcement as well as the judicial system,” Weis said.

The “court day” training is designed to supplemental the rigorous training that law enforcement officers receive through their individual departments.

Seward Township aids bus service SHAW MEDIA The Voluntary Action Center recently announced that Seward Township has provided $2,000 for use in the operation of Kendall Area Transit. The donation will be used as a local match, which is required by the Downstate Operating Assistance Program funding from the state of Illinois.

Paul LaLonde, assistant director at VAC, said money provided by community partners is crucial in helping VAC access critical matching funds required by the transportation

grants.

“Matching funds are the lifeline to KAT,” LaLonde said. “Without them, we couldn’t access the grants, which provide the most funding of the system.”

Jean Homerding, township supervisor, said the township decided to support VAC’s mission after hearing about how the program helps Seward residents: “So many of our neighbors need help these days, especially in our rural township. We were surprised at how active KAT is in Seward Township, and we appreciate their outreach to us.”

In 2010 – KAT’s first year of operation – 4,755 rides were provided, averaging 24 trips per day.

Within a year, service had more than doubled and continued to increase substantially as word spread about the new service.

Today, VAC gives 110 dial-a-ride trips a day and provided over 27,000 trips in fiscal 2015. KAT is a community and public transportation program but is especially important for seniors and persons with disabilities.

“What many people may not realize,” said LaLonde, “is that KAT is truly a

community project. KAT couldn’t operate successfully at its current level without the participation and support of community partners like Seward Township. We are thankful for their support, as well as the support from all our friends and partners.”

As the KAT program continues fulfilling the transit needs of residents, VAC looks forward to meeting the challenges posed by rapidly expanding ridership. As KAT continues to grow and expand, the residents of Kendall County remain the chief benefactor of its services.

Vegetables can still be productive for a couple more months depending on what crops you have been growing. Certainly long-season crops like tomatoes and peppers could continue to produce until frost, and crops like Swiss chard can tolerate quite a bit of cool or even cold weather.

Root crops like turnips, carrots, beets, parsnips, potatoes and onions can be harvested anytime they are ready and into frosty weather. If you mulch the rows with straw to prevent freezing, root crops could be harvested even with snow cover.

A trend in vegetables the past couple of seasons has been the idea of growing greens and harvesting them while they are very small and tender. So our calendar may not allow us to grow lettuces, greens and spinach to their mature sizes, yet we can certainly harvest them as whole smaller plants for fresh table use in salads and garnish for other dishes as well.

You can experiment with season extenders to get a bit farther into fall and not have the weather put an end to your gardening experience. These can be as simple as protecting from the earliest of frosts by covering tender plants

More involved will be a temporary structure created over the rows or setting the cold frame you used in the spring to harden off your plants over a portion of a row or rows. Most anything you used in the spring to protect your vegetables from the late frosts can be reused to protect from the early fall frosts.

It seems a bit odd to add this last part in a column in August, but if you have valuable produce close to being mature enough to harvest, be prepared to harvest if you cannot protect the plants so the fruit is not damaged by the cold weather.

What you do not want to allow is the weeds to go to seed in areas where you have already harvested all your vegetables. This will set you up for a weed problem next year. Since most gardeners do not have a “hot” composting system, those weed seed heads should be thrown out and not put in the compost bin.

where we used our own compost as organic matter, for example.

If you have enough of an open area, consider sowing a cover crop to help condition the soil and keep the weed population down. You can turn them in late this fall or leave them as winter cover if you like. If you routinely turn in all your plant parts each year, don’t turn in diseased plants that will provide disease inoculum for next year. Gardeners who mow, mulch and bag their tree leaves also have the option of using those in the garden as well, turning them in alone or with other kinds or organic matter.

OA in the knees can be very painful or just plain annoying at !mes.

HERE’S THE GOOD NEWS!!!

There is a simple in office procedure that can help to reduce the pain and dysfunc!on caused by knee OA. This simple procedure is extremely effec!ve and covered by most insurance companies. With knee OA, there is less cushion between your bones. Our simple procedure injects a solu!on which increases the cushion

between your bones. It s really that simple. The treatment protocol takes about 1 month and involves some therapy, knee supports, and injec!ons (5 in total). As a qualied physician, I have been providing these injec!ons for over 15 years. I con!nue to see successful treatments over and over again. There have been over 280 million injec!ons performed worldwide giving me condence in its safety and effec!veness. Call my office to schedule an evalua!on to see if you are a candidate for this simple procedure. One of our most recent success stories comes from Chery.

How to dig and store summer bulbs End of growing season approaching – time to prepare plants for winter SHAW MEDIA Summer bulbs add beauty to the landscape when earlier spring bulbs have long faded and flowering shrubs have turned to foliage for the season.

“However, summer bulbs must be dug up at the end of your growing season and properly stored inside for the winter in order to have a floral display the following year,” explained Richard Hentschel, University of Illinois Extension horticulture educator.

By tradition, a bulb refers to any plant that maintains its entire life cycle in a storage root.

A few of the well-known, common summer-blooming bulbs are lily, gladiolus caladiums, iris, canna, and dahlia. Summer bulbs are planted in the spring after the chance of frost and the garden soils have warmed.

To dig summer bulbs

at the end of the season, Hentschel said to wait until the bulb foliage has naturally died down or dig immediately after a killing frost.

Digging summer bulbs usually means loosening the soil with a garden fork or spade several inches away from where the bulb is believed to be and gently lifting the plant without damage to the bulb itself, Hentschel said.

“At this point, the outer skin of the bulb is soft and tender so caution is needed,” he added. “Most often summer bulbs are stored with a small amount of soil still clinging to the roots. A gentle shake to remove any excess soil will be a good step.”

Summer bulbs need to be cured before storage to toughen up the outer skin.

Curing means allowing the freshly dug bulbs to dry down in a cool shady location before being stored.

Summer bulbs that are put into storage still wet or damaged during the digging process could easily develop storage rots and other kinds of decay, Hentschel said. The time from digging to actual storage of the bulb for the winter can take a few days to a few weeks and should be done during warm late-summer and early-fall weather.

Hentschel recommended that if there are many different kinds of summer bulbs to store, labeling each clump should be done.

“One neat trick for larger bulbs such as amaryllis or elephant ears is to use a magic marker and write directly on the bulb,” he said.

Storage temperatures for summer bulbs can range from 40 to 60 degrees, with 50 degrees being a good goal.

If kept too warm, bulbs will begin to grow in storage, and, if they are kept too cold, they suffer and can be slow to grow when planted again in the spring.

While in storage, check on the bulbs at least once

during the winter months to be sure the bulbs are sound.

“If any bulbs show decay, remove them before the decay spreads to healthy bulbs,” Hentschel said.

Some storage roots may need to have the soil or storage media moistened but never saturated to maintain adequate moisture so the storage roots are not all dried by planting time.

“With these easy steps, summer blooms will grace your garden year after year,” Hentschel said.

Seasonal Allergies

Affecting Your Life?

Each year seasonal allergies continue to get worse. People who have never had allergies in the past are all of the sudden suffering from seasonal allergies.

There are many common symptoms from allergies such as: runny nose, itchy eyes and throat, swollen eyes, fatigue…

What most people don’t know is that allergies lead to other (secondary) problems as well: sinus infections, pneumonia, chronic cough, upper respiratory infections, ear infections…

If the allergies can be stopped, then the secondary conditions…may never start. Do you have to change your lifestyle due to your allergies? Are you avoiding going outdoors during certain times of the year? Do your allergies dictate your social calendar? Are allergies affecting your sleep? Are you tired of being sick? Allergy testing and treatment may be your answer.

Seasonal allergy testing is traditionally performed with a “skin test.” This test puts a small amount of different allergens (such as ragweed, pollen, dust mites, grasses, etc.) in liquid form onto your skin and the doctor measures your skin reaction. This is a painless 20 minute test that we perform in our office. We test the 70 most common Midwest allergens.

Once you know what you are allergic to, you can now avoid that allergen. You can also receive treatment for the allergies through a desensitization process that will teach your body to stop reacting to the ragweed, grasses, trees, etc.

There are two forms of treatment: Traditional allergy injections or Self-administered treatment in your home Farah Malik, MD provides both options for her patients. Most patients choose the self-administered treatment in their home as it is more convenient, less painful, and less expensive. Allergy testing and treatment is covered by most all insurance companies (Medicaid excluded). Dr. Malik has been providing allergy treatment for more than 2 years and nearly every patient has responded well as evidenced by the results with repeat the allergy skin testing and overall reduced allergy symptoms.

What are you waiting for? Call today to schedule your ALLERGY EVALUATION with Dr. Malik.

Downy mildew spotted in pumpkin field SHAW MEDIA Downy mildew of cucurbits is a destructive disease of cucurbits, including pumpkins. According to a University of Illinois vegetable and fruit pathologist, infection in a pumpkin field has shown up in Illinois.

Mohammad Babadoost explained that downy mildew of cucurbits was recently diagnosed by colleague Daniel Egel in a watermelon field in Lawrence County, Ill., on July 23.

“I was hoping that the disease would not spread to other parts of the state. But yesterday [July 30], we observed severe infection by downy mildew pathogen in a processing pumpkin field in Mason County, Ill.,”

Babadoost said. “The pathogen will likely spread to other parts of the state.”

Downy mildew of cucurbits is a very destructive disease. “The present strain of the pathogen will likely infect all cucurbit crops, including cucumber, gourd, muskmelon, pumpkin, squash and watermelon,” Babadoost said.

Downy mildew affects leaves only.

Symptoms of downy mildew vary with the host and the environmental conditions. Babadoost explained that the first symptom is usually the appearance of indistinct pale green areas on the upper leaf surface. The pale green areas soon become yellow in color and angular to irregular in

shape, bounded by the leaf veins.

“As the disease progresses, the lesions may remain yellow or become brown and necrotic. During moist weather, the corresponding lower leaf surface is covered with a downy, pale gray to purple mildew. Often an upward leaf curling will occur,” he said.

If you don’t have the disease in your field yet, Babadoost recommends including chlorothalonil (e.g., Bravo Weather Stik) in weekly sprays.

If downy mildew is observed in the field, spray cucurbit crops with one the following fungicide combinations at weekly intervals: Revus 2.09SC or Previcur Flex 6SC or Tanus 50WG or Ranman 3.6SC or Gavel 75DF or Zampro 525F plus chlorothalonil.

BRIEF Emerald ash borer program on Aug. 26

The emerald ash borer is one pesky little bug that has caused extensive damage and death to thousands of ash trees in northeastern Illinois the last few years.

Too often, the ash borer’s presence is a death knell for trees it infects.

“So, You Have Ash Borer – Now What?” will be presented at the Yorkville Public Library at 7 p.m.

Wednesday, Aug. 26, to answer questions on identifying ash borer and the steps

homeowners can take.

Sponsored by the University of Illinois Extension and The Conservation Foundation, the program will help homeowners with control techniques, disposal of wood from dead tees, and alternatives to replacing the tree with more diverse native species.

Reservations are suggested and can be made by going to the library’s website at yorkville.lib.il.us or call 630-553-4354 no later than Aug. 24.

Annual fair showcases more than animals SHAW MEDIA Editor’s note: Following is the second half of the 2015 Kendall County 4-H Show results. The animal and livestock show results were published in the Aug. 6 issue. All results are available online at KendallCountyNow.com.

While 4-H livestock and pet shows are a popular and important part of the annual county fair experience, 4-H youth learn and exhibit in several other project areas.

“With 100-plus project areas, 4-H youth can explore arts, sciences, citizenship, leadership, engineering, technology and much more,” said Deanna Roby, University of Illinois Extension Educator for DuPage, Kane and Kendall counties. “During the annual county fair week, 4-H members have the opportunity to not only exhibit their hard work, but also participate in one-on-one conferences with knowledgeable volunteer judges to gain valuable feedback and insight for that particular area of study.”

4-H conference judging provides a unique opportunity for 4-H exhibitors to learn from the experiences and knowledge of the judge, Roby added.

Spicy shrimp nachos are a perfect summer dinner

FOOD BRIEF

Creative ideas for school lunches When it comes to packing a school lunch, you know the drill: Lay out two slices of bread. Spread one with peanut butter, the other with jelly. Press together, slice diagonally and place in sandwich bag. Repeat. And repeat. And repeat.

For creative sandwich substitutes, think outside the bread box: Create a bento-box-style, snackable lunch combo: include cheese and crackers, fresh grapes from California, and a small handful of nuts.

Make a sandwich rollup, using flatbread or flour tortillas as the base, or stuff pita pockets with filling, as a fun replacement for sliced bread.

Tuck whole-grain tortilla chips and salsa, a side of black bean and corn salad,

Brandpoint

plus cheese and grapes for a Mexican spin on lunch.

Tuck in a cluster of fresh grapes from California for an easy finger food that’s juicy and hydrating too.

Looking for a gluten-free alternative? Try a cheese stick rolled with a slice of ham, with grapes on the side.

Shapeshift familiar lunch items to add interest: offer cheese cubes, apple rings, carrot coins, and tortilla pinwheels.

hrimp are ideal for the dog days of summer.

They require a nanosecond of cooking and are great served chilled. Here, they elevate spicy nachos to dinner-course level, providing simple and refreshing nourishment. You can purchase cooked, chilled shrimp for this recipe.

But if you’re cooking your own, follow these tips for tender, flavorful shrimp: Sautéed or grilled: Toss raw, peeled shrimp in olive oil, salt, pepper, crushed red pepper flakes and ground cumin. Sauté in a hot skillet or grill 3 minutes on each side.

Poached: Combine water, lemon halves, bay leaves and Old Bay Seasoning in a pot. Bring to a boil. Add raw, unpeeled shrimp and simmer about 3 to 4 minutes, until shrimp are bright pink. Use a slotted spoon to transfer shrimp to a bowl. Cover with ice to stop cooking.
