T
he Oswego Chamber of Commerce, Village of Oswego leaders, and the Kendall County Health Department rallied the community, businesses, and volunteers to vaccinate local essential workers, adults, and teachers for Covid-19 protection. The old adage “It takes a Village” was never more apparent than in this valiant and successful effort when over 4,500 people were vaccinated with their 1st and 2nd doses this past March and April at Oswego High School. “The community came together and worked as one since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Troy
Parlier, Oswego Village President. “When we had the opportunity to provide the mass vaccination clinics, I had no doubt we would step up for this very important task. The Village government, Chamber of Commerce, local businesses and our residents all answered the call in a spectacular manner.” Village President Parlier added that “every department in the Village participated in this effort and really it would have to, in order to make this successful. If a department wasn’t directly involved in the planning and execution, they provided workers and volunteers. We should all be very proud of this effort.” u Continued on page 3

Rallying everyone to make it happen was Angie Hibben, IOM, the Oswego Chamber’s President/CEO, who served as the conduit in bringing volunteers together. Village President Parlier noted the Village couldn’t have done this alone. “We asked Angie Hibben from the Chamber to coordinate this effort,” he said. “She has additional resources from the Chamber’s members that helped make this effort, vaccinating 4500 people, a reality.” Hibben was in charge of recruiting and signing up hundreds of volunteers who helped check-in individuals and administer the vaccine shots. “I worked at all four of the events in setting-up the clinics and witnessed hard-working volunteers make sure all safety protocols were in place providing social distancing and sanitization,” said Hibben. “I would like to express my deepest appreciation to everyone involved,” she said. Support was received from local doctors and nurses, the Oswego Fire Department EMTs, local law enforcement agencies, Oswego School District 308, Lewis University Nursing School, and the WCC Nursing School. In addition, 113 Main & Steve Buresh’s
Cheesecake Factory donated food for volunteers at the March events; and MetroNet and Sheriff Dwight Baird supplied lunches for the April event. On the other end of the spectrum, the Kendall County Health Department provided the mass vaccination consultation, according to RaeAnn VanGundy, executive director of the Kendall County Health Department. “We worked with all partners, the moderna vaccine, the vaccine managers, the IT devices, all ancillary supplies for the nurses, the help desk staff for those with questions, and shared oversight of the events,” said VanGundy. According to VanGundy, “The flow of the mass vaccination clinics was very
smooth. After each event we evaluated the event and continued to get better each time. We always learn something from each event and work to make the experience better next time. There are always little challenges, but nothing that we couldn’t overcome.” She reiterated Hibben’s appreciation to all involved. “Volunteers are what make community events like these possible. I want to send a huge thank you to all those that volunteered their time to give back to make our community a safer place to live and work.” It’s partnerships like these among businesses, residents, and Village leaders that makes the Village of Oswego a strong, caring and healthy community.

Chamber CEO Letter
W
elcome to the Oswego Area Chamber of Commerce Summer newsletter.
The Oswego Area Chamber of Commerce continues to work hard for our members to promote them in the area, to help them make connections with other business and the community. We have 2 new major projects coming that we are working on for the chamber. We are working on “Oswegooply” game board. This will be an actual monopoly type game based on Oswego and the chamber businesses. The different properties, chance/ community chest cards, hotels/houses and the money will all be sponsored by local businesses. The game boards are available for pre-order through the chamber right now and will be ready to purchase in time for the holidays.
Will make a great gift for family and customers. The other major project we are working on it is our New Resident Program. These are beautiful logoed boxes that will be full of information, coupons and special offers from Oswego Area Chamber member businesses. These will be delivered, starting in June, to new residents of Oswego. Thank you to the Village of Oswego for helping us identify new residents, to Salazar Packaging for printing the boxes and to Imagination Print & Design for the box design. This is only available to chamber members to participate. This is an exciting and vibrant time in Oswego with new restaurants and new businesses coming to town every month. We are looking forward to the opening of many new businesses and places to eat in Oswego. Watch for announcements as we are given them

Chamber Welcomes 3 New Village Trustees
T
he Oswego Chamber of Commerce extends congratulations to three new Village of Oswego Trustees, who were officially sworn in to their duties on May 4, 2021. Tom Guist, Jennifer Jones Sinnott, and Kit Kuhrt are long-standing Village residents
By Pat Szpekowski and have been driven to public service due to their passion and support for the Village, its residents and the community. They join the Village Board with Village President Troy Parlier and current Village Trustees James Marter, Jr., Terry Olson, and Brian Thomas. Their newly elected terms were previously
held by Village Trustees Pam Parr, Luis Perez, and Judy Sollinger, whose terms expired in 2021. Below is information about each of the new Village Trustees, why they felt compelled to run for office, and what are their specific goals as they serve the residents of the Village.
TOM GUIST
JENNIFER JONES SINNOTT
KIT KUHRT
Guist and his wife, Carol, a real estate broker, have been in Oswego for 20 years. He works in the civil/ environmental consulting industry at AKT Peerless in Naperville and oversees offices in Cleveland and Atlanta. They have three children, all of which have gone through Community Unit School District 308. He and Carol have volunteered throughout the 20 years through the Oswegoland Park District, high school band and marching band programs, Panther soccer, Team Oswego gymnastics, Delta Aquatics and several high school sports.
A resident of Oswego since 2001 along with her husband Don and adult children Stephen and Erin, Jones Sinnott was compelled to run for the office of Village Trustee because she cares deeply about the community. Her goal is to make a positive impact by expanding the economic base with an emphasis on fiscal responsibility and the commitment to tax less and spend less while growing the Village. She also seeks to collaborate with all intergovernmental partners and deliver services to residents and business efficiently.
Kuhrt has much pride and a strong passion for the Village of Oswego. He has been a resident of Kendall County for many years and he and his wife have lived in Oswego for over five years.
He has been a proud member of the Oswego Planning & Zoning Commission (PZC) for the past two years before his election as a Village Trustee. He became involved with Planning & Zoning because of his interest in development and engineering and a desire to give back to the community. “Witnessing the momentum over my time on the PZC and understanding the mega projects (new water source and Wolf’s Crossing expansion, to name a few), I felt my experience would be beneficial to the Village as it continues to grow,” he said. “My goal is to use my experience to help move these projects forward and continue development in the Village and downtown in ways that benefit the Village financially and brings a sense of pride to the residents.” www.oswegochamber.org

Originally from Moline, Illinois, she earned a Bachelor of Science Degree in Elementary Education from Southern Illinois University in Carbondale. She worked in education as a 5th grade teacher and basketball coach for 3 years upon graduating from college and then transitioned into the insurance industry with a relocation to Missouri. With 26 years of insurance experience, she works for Brian Feltes & Associates, Inc., along with her personal/ business clients as an Independent Insurance Agent. In addition, Jones Sinnett is a member of the Oswego Chamber of Commerce. “The Village of Oswego is a great hidden gem of a community that we found and I want others to find it, too,” she said. “It will continue to grow and thrive by following and believing in the vision, mission, and values that drive the Village’s Strategic Plan which will ultimately create a better, stronger, more prosperous Village for the current residents and future generations.”
They have three young children who attend Community Unit School District 308 schools. He has founded and operates several successful small businesses in the area, including Kits Towing & Recovery and Justice Automotive & Collision Centers in Naperville. As a business owner, he is a member of the Oswego Chamber of Commerce. He feels his proven entrepreneurial and business leadership will serve as an asset in his position as Village Trustee. He understands how to set and stick to a budget and will prioritize reducing the property tax burden for Oswego residents. His priority goals in serving the residents of the Village of Oswego are fiscal responsibility, law enforcement support, tax less, spend less, and smart growth. “I intend to have conversations to discover how the people of Oswego envision our future,” he said, “including making changes for the good of the community, and how we can make Oswego the best community there is.”

W
e have wrapped 2020 and started a new year. Unlike last year, we have already had our annual dinner, elected our new Board of Directors, and as of this writing I will be passing the reins of the Chamber Board of Directors Chairman – or in this case, Chairwoman – to Brook Henschen. I want to thank everyone on the board for their service over the past year. It was an honor to serve with you the past 12 months. For our committee chairs and volunteers, we could not run the Chamber without your dedication and service. Thank you. But most of all, I have to thank Angie and Shayna. I know everyone sees the two of them at all of our events, but I am not sure everyone really appreciates all the hard work these two do each and every day for the continued success of our Chamber. I know they both have come to dislike the word “pivot,” but they pivoted so many times in the past 12 months that we have hopefully come a full 360 degrees and can resume normalcy. One thing we realized in 2020 is our Chamber revenue was focused on events. In 2020, we saw that revenue stream slow to a trickle. So the staff and board held two workshop meetings to come up with a few ideas that would generate revenue even if we had cancel some of our events. One of those workshops created “Oswego-opoly,” which has proven to be a big success already. This is a Monopoly board game See pages 7-8 to find themed around Oswego. If you haven’t had a chance more information about to participate, stop by to ask either Angie or Shayna for sponsoring a space on the ways to participate. There are all sizes of price points. Oswego-opoly board! If sponsorship isn’t something you want, preorder the board game for Christmas gifts. To all of our members, thank you for allowing me to represent you over the past 12 months – it was truly an honor. Respectfully, KEITH MOORE Past Chairman Board of Directors

tunes is more your style, the 4th Annual Spirits on the Farm on Saturday, August 21, 2021 is a must to attend. Spirits is a collaboration between the Oswego Chamber of Commerce and the Kendall County Fairgrounds in Yorkville. It’s been a big hit with those who have attended in the past and a win-win time featuring the best of Illinois Distilleries, food trucks, artisans, and music. “I encourage the community to come out to Spirits,” said Keith Moore, owner of Black Dog Distillery in Plainfield and current chair of the Oswego Area Chamber. “It’s a great way to help support our local distilleries, which have not had the opportunity in over a year to showcase their products.” Black Dog Distillery specializes in custom hand-crafted flavored rums and vodkas, including its popular Lavender Vodka. Break out those sunglasses and golf clubs and get ready for a fun summer with family and friends.
