Heroes come in all shapes and sizes It’s funny how certain aspects about people stick in your memory.

Back in the early 1990s, I knew that Charles Barkley was a good basketball player. But then he did the “I am not a role model” commercial, and that’s what I always remember him for.

While I agree with Barkley’s basic premise – just because he can dunk a basketball doesn’t mean he should raise your kids – I also feel like he missed the point that, whether he liked it or not, kids were going to look up to him.

Throughout most of the 20th and, so far the 21st, centuries, this country has been obsessed with its sports figures and has made role models of them (whether they are worthy of it or not).

It is rumored that Babe Ruth was a heavy drinker, yet every kid in America wanted to grow up to be him. A famous anecdote has The Babe walking into the Yankee owner’s office and asking for a big salary. The owner responds that it’s

VIEWS Rob Oesterle more money than the president of the United States makes, to which Babe countered, “I had a better year than he did.”

There are other stories about Ruth that might make some blush. But people looked the other way when it came to celebrities back then. Now it seems like as soon as someone becomes a beloved figure, the race is on to find some dirt on them to bring them down.

Which is fine with me. They are just people. If they are going to behave like a goof, then they should suffer the same consequences as any ordinary person.

That’s why I respect and admire Dave Grohl. Not only does he have immense talent, being the drummer for the legend-

LOOKING UP

ary band Nirvana before forming his own band, Foo Fighters. One of Foo Fighters’ songs, “My Hero,” has a lyric that states, “There goes my hero. He’s ordinary.”

I think more heroes should be the ordinary folks. I know the talented among us – athletes, actors, musicians – are going to be listed. But is it heroic to have a God-given talent? Or is it heroic to be ordinary and work your tail off to provide for your family, to volunteer to join the armed forces or first-responder units and protect your country or community?

All of those things are heroic in their own way. Too often, though, more attention is paid to those with the superior talents than to those with the work ethic or who make sacrifices. With Father’s Day just around the corner, let’s not forget to let our dads know who our first hero was.

Annual Morris Cruise Nights kick off season

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Rich Leach of Morris has owned a 1957 for most of his life – not the same one, but always from 1957.

“When I married Peggy, I had a 1957 convertible,” Leach said. “I’ve sold and bought back another 1957 Chevy, but my wife won’t let me sell this one.”

The cherry red two-door hardtop has been driven to every Morris Cruise Night since the event’s inception 14 years ago. When asked what attracted him to the 1957 Chevy, he said it’s simply the lines in the car that draws him to what he feels is the best car ever made.

For many years, Leach had company when it came to attending every cruise night with car enthusiasts Bill Vallow and Harris Enervold.

The three came out rain or shine to keep their perfect attendance going.

However, Vallow passed in July 2014 and Enervold in August 2014.

“I wish I had more competition,” Leach said Saturday night as he recalled the three of them turning out – even when the event was rained out – so they could pay and be in the record books as attendees.

Without the competition from his friends, he almost missed Saturday’s Cruise Night as he and Peggy were out of town. A change in plans brought him home earlier than expected Saturday, allowing him to keep his record going.

“I enjoy living in Morris and participating in community events,” he said.

Leach said he isn’t like many of the car enthusiasts, though. He does not polish or continuously update his car – in fact, he said in the last 10 years all he has done is put in gas and give it an oil change.

“There is nothing about it I would change,” he said. “I’ve only put 3,000 miles on it since I bought it in 1988.”

Herb Wyeth, the founder of Morris Cruise Night, said he admires the dedication of the three men who never missed an event.

Morris Cruise Night is a nonprofit organization that was formally established in 2002.

It will be held this year the second Saturday of the month from June

Rich Leach of Morris has not missed one cruise night since its inception 14 years ago.

Heidi Litchfield – hlitchfield@shawmedia.com

More online For information about Morris Cruise Night, visit morriscruisenight.com through October.

It costs $10 a car for those who want to show off their wheels, but attendees can come for free.

Wyeth created the event to bring back the old tradition of “buzzing the

gut,” which had kids driving back and forth up and down Liberty Street for decades before it ended in the 1990s.

Wyeth said the event is much more than hundreds of cars and thousands of spectators. It’s a way to give back to the community.

The Cruise Night committee each month chooses a different nonprofit organization from the community to benefit financially.

Saturday’s benefactor was Grundy Community Volunteer Hospice,

which receives money from a 50/50 raffle and food booth sales.

On Saturday, 534 cars filled the streets, with awards going to two car owners: Jim Reed of Morris won Beneficiaries Choice Award for his 1924 10-C Franklin, and Dan and Cindy Seidelman of Yorkville won Celebrity Choice Award for their 1967 Chevy Chevelle.

The 50/50 raffle reached $6,038, with half of that benefiting the hospice.

Motorcycle rally to honor Minooka man Riders criticize light sentence for DUI driver

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com PLAINFIELD – Friends of a Minooka man killed in a motorcycle crash four years ago have organized a ride to honor his life and criticize what they deem a lenient sentence for the driver responsible.

“Justice For Ron Oswald” will begin at 10:30 a.m. July 17 when riders meet at Double J Sports Bar, 1001 Essington Road in Joliet.

On July 14, 2012, Oswald was riding his Harley-Davidson near County Line Road and Route 126 in Plainfield when the driver of a Dodge Durango slammed into a Nissan Altima and pushed it into Oswald’s path.

“This whole case is dirty,” said Oswald’s friend, Barbara Fitzpatrick. “He killed somebody and gets two years and a slap on the wrist.

We want to bring awareness to what happened [and] get these judges to stop this [giving of] light sentences.”

Oswald was an active member of Will County ABATE, which stands for A Brotherhood Aimed Toward Education, an organization that promotes motorcycle safety and legislation to protect riders. He was on his way to meet Fitzpatrick and other riders to escort a soldier being deployed when he was killed.

Riders will leave Double J’s at 11:30 a.m. to pass the cemetery where Oswald is buried and then the crash site.

“We’re going to complete his final ride,” Fitzpatrick said. “We’re expecting 200 riders.”

The procession will end at Tap House, 24402 Lockport St., Plainfield, where the event will finish with Photo provided “prayers and anybody who wants to Friends of Ron Oswald will host a rally in July to remember the Minooka man and express get up and talk about Ron can,” Fitztheir frustration with the light sentence the man responsible for his death received. patrick said.

Grundy coroner: Morris man dies of possible heroin overdose MORRIS – A Morris man was found dead – possibly from overdosing on heroin – in his home early Sunday.

A news release from the Grundy County Coroner’s Office stated it appears Ricardo Melendez, 24, died in the very late hours of Saturday evening and was discovered by his mother early Sunday in the apartment they shared in the 300 block of Ashland Circle.

Coroner John Callahan and the Morris Police Department are investigating.

Callahan received a call shortly after 5 a.m. Sunday regarding the death, according to the news release.

There was sufficient evidence found at the scene to indicate a possible heroin overdose, the news release stated.

An examination was to be done earlier this week, according to the news release, and toxicology tests were to be submitted for further analysis.

Minooka residents hit by credit card fraud spree

MINOOKA – Minooka police are trying to find out who’s behind a recent string of fraudulent credit card purchases.

Minooka Police Chief Justin Meyer said a discussion in the “Moms of Minooka” Facebook group sparked the investigation.

Meyer said there had been 10 known fraud cases in a nine-day span as of Friday morning, but authorities received an additional 65 reports between then and late Monday afternoon, when the police department issued a news release on the matter. Each incident is different and the spree is not related to a single business, according to the news release.

Police have not ruled out skimming devices and are working with a financial crimes task force, the news release stated, and investigating the possible use of credit card scanners. Thieves with scanners stand next to customers in line and scan credit or debit cards in wallets or purses.

Meyer on Friday suggested using cash in Minooka in the meantime, or using a card in person with a cashier.

He suggested going into restaurants to pay rather than using a drive-thru. In the news release, police asked for the public’s patience and advised those seeking information to call 815-467-2298.

Firefighters respond to heavy smoke at Channahon facility

Kiara Abbott, 15, of Coal City adds debris to a pile next to Hunter’s Lane where volunteers were cleaning up the last of the tornado debris Saturday.

Volunteers help with nearly yearlong tornado cleanup list

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com COAL CITY – Once again, the village of Coal City was dotted with people in bright neon vests – the same vests the community has seen for the past year cleaning up after the June 22, 2015, tornado.

Preston Johnson, 15, of Coal City said it was important for him to come out and be involved in the final steps.

“That way people aren’t reminded when they drive by and see the debris,” Johnson said.

The debris included pieces of people’s homes, but also items such as a box of contacts belonging to someone whose home was damaged or destroyed.

Dozens of people showed up Saturday morning to start the two-day cleanup organized by the Rev. Mark Hughey.

By noon, there was only one crew left working in the last identified area that still needed cleaning.

“We had five leaders with 40 kids, as well as other volunteers show up to clean,” Hughey said. “We got way more done that I thought we would.”

He said that once the final field area near Hunter’s Lane was complete, they will have completed all the areas the village. There is more volunteer work to do that involves skilled crews, such as those certified to use chain saws.

Another 15-year-old Coal City resident, Kiara Abbott, said she was unable to help last summer as her family dealt with the personal impact of the tornado, so she wanted to come out and help the community now, when her life has returned to normal. Other volunteers came from miles around, including a support staff member of the Western Springs Fire Department, Lucas Knudsen.

Knudsen was working when Kevin Hennessy, who also worked for the fire department, came into the office June 22 asking for someone to relieve him so he could get home to Coal City.

“After the fire academy graduation we were hanging around when Kevin Hennessy asked someone to cover,” Knudsen said. “Ever since then, I’ve come down and helped as much as I could.”

Some of the volunteers were from nonprofits such as Operation Rebuild, which was born after the Fairdale tornado and now responds wherever needed after a disaster. Others had more personal reasons for helping.

Jessica Murphy, 15, of Diamond watched the residents of Coal City come to the aid of her neighbors after the November 2013 tornado struck Diamond.

“My family was affected by the first tornado, but nothing serious, and I wanted to help give back to this community for their help then,” she said.

CHANNAHON – Channahon firefighters responded Friday to heavy smoke coming from the IOI Loders Croklaan facility.

Channahon Fire Protection District officials stated in a news release that employees were evacuated without injury from the north building at the facility. Operations at the vegetable oil refinery were halted. At 12:30 p.m. Friday, Channahon firefighters saw smoke showing from the north building at 24708 W. Durkee Road in Channahon, according to a fire district news release.

Upon further investigation, the firefighters saw heavy smoke in the interior of the building and a search revealed a large volume of the smoke coming from the crude soybean oil processing unit. No flames were visible but the oil was later confirmed to be overheated by Loders Croklaan representatives, fire officials stated.

Firefighters extended hose lines into the building as a safety precaution and command staff worked with facility representatives on extinguishing methods.

The facility’s staff discontinued electric power to the building and product heating elements. Firefighters also ventilated the building to alleviate the volume of smoke. Other responding agencies included Frankfort, Homer Township and Lockport fire districts.

Boil order from village lifted in Minooka on Sunday

MINOOKA – A boil order that was issued late last week by the village of Minooka was lifted by Sunday evening.

The boil order was announced Friday afternoon. The end of the boil order was announced in a village news release Sunday evening that stated sample testing had confirmed the water supply was safe.

The village had urged residents to boil their water after E. coli and total coliform bacteria were found in the supply. The village advised residents the only water that needed to be boiled is that which is being consumed.

Superintendent of Public Works Ryan Anderson clarified Sunday that no additional precautionary steps need to be taken by residents.

Morris High School passes amended budget

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The Morris Community High School board unanimously approved the fiscal 2016 amended budget at its regular board meeting Monday night.

Pat Halloran, Morris Community High School’s superintendent, said that although the education fund has remained stable and will see slight revenue decreases because of late state payments, overall it is right on target.

“If we get a fourth categorical payment, it will help where we end up in the education and transportation funds,” Halloran said.

The operations and maintenance fund was a little more volatile, Halloran said, because of some unforeseen expenses. Those expenses include $40,000 needed to address the HVAC system at GAVC, and nearly $100,000 in projects at the high school that need to be addressed but were not scheduled.

Halloran said unexpected issues with the boiler and the swimming pool added to the expenses in the fund.

“We will transfer $175,000 out of the

The transportation costs for special education students were less than what was budgeted, so additional money is available in the transportation fund for transfer. Before the regular board meeting, a public hearing was held to discuss the changes to the budget.

The board also approved: • The annual donation from the Jim and Carol Baum Fund in the amount of $2,500.

• The adoption of Prevailing Wage Rate Ordinance, done annually.

• The renewal contract with Ceres for food service management with no change to the services or cost.

County approves construction plans with LyondellBasell

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The Grundy County board unanimously adopted a resolution to allow LyondellBasell Industries to follow existing 2009 international building codes on proposed construction at their Morris plant.

Heidi Miller, the Grundy County land use director, said the company was asking for a construction commitment from the county in case the county adopts 2015 building codes before the start of construction.

“They would like to keep the building codes at the 2009 codes whether the county updates them or not due to considerable amount of time and money already spent,” Miller said.

The resolution that was adopted

states that the company’s representative said there are plans to build a new administration building as well as various in-plant building improvements.

In other board actions, the board approved the following resolutions unanimously: To appoint Brent Dite to Sheriff’s Merit Commission replacing Timothy J. Bradley.

To appoint Thomas Hougas as Supervisor of Assessments.

To appoint John V. Hanson to the Grundy County Housing Authority board.

To appoint Tamara Halterman, Jeffrey Marques, David Buttry, Nicholas Baudino and Mathew Niewinski as trustees to the newly formed Mazon-Verona-Kinsman Rescue Squad District.

He said Grundy County will be have a Chevy while Will County will a GMC. Both pickup trucks will have 420 horsepower engines under the hood, keeping everything equal. D’Arcy said it will be each driver’s reaction that wins or loses.

Complete Comfort Dental offers Invisalign as an 2016 alternative to traditional braces SPONSORED BY

When you were young, and your teeth were crooked or badly spaced, you got braces.

Wearing those networks of fitted brackets and wires was “normal,” as were repeated trips to the dentist to have them adjusted.

Getting the braces off for the last time was a big, welcome moment.

Today, advancement in orthodontics has produced alternatives, particularly for adults concerned about appearance.

This involves wearing clear plastic trays – called “aligners” – that are custom-designed to fit the mouth. Worn in a series over time, they are used to straighten crooked or crowded teeth, correct overbite or close gaps between teeth.

Dr. Eric Salud, lead dentist at Complete Comfort Dental in Channahon, which offers Invisalign in its treatment alternative to braces, said the popularity is growing, primarily for cosmetic reasons.

“The appearance of braces doesn’t look professional” for adults in work and social environments, he said. With clear aligners “no one really knows you’re wearing them.

They’re pretty close to invisible.”

There are other advantages. Braces can be uncomfortable, trap food, and take longer to clean. Aligners can be removed for teeth cleaning, which is why Dr. Salud usually recommends them only for adults and teenagers.

Younger children are sometimes less compliant, removing and possibly losing them.

The process involves an examination of the teeth, bite and jaw movement. A mold of the teeth is then made, and he and an Invisalign technician work together to develop a desired treatment plan to move the teeth over time. Invisalign then produces a custom-made series of aligners. Treatment with aligners can take a year to a year and a half, he said.

MORRIS – Start your engines.

Aug. 20 is set to be a showdown between Grundy and Will counties during the D’Arcy Buick GMC Route 66 Classic drag race – which will include a grudge match between officials between the neighboring counties.

The quarter-mile drag race will pit Will County and Grundy County officials against one another to see who can take home the title of the fastest of the fast.

Morris Mayor Richard Kopczick will face off against Joliet Mayor Bob O’Dekirk; Morris Police Chief Brent Dite will take on Joliet Police Chief Brian Benton; Morris Fire Chief Tracey Steffes will challenge Joliet Fire Chief Joe Formhals; and Grundy County Sheriff Kevin Callahan will face Will County Sheriff Mike Kelley.

The grudge match was formally announced Saturday at a news conference during the Morris Cruise Night, in which several of the Grundy County officials attended. Absent were O’Dekirk, Benton and Formhals, as well as Kopczick, who was out of town on vacation.

“How does your opponent not show up? His nerves must be acting up,” Dite said. “We have a lot of champions here.

Maybe he’s scared to come down and square off.”

The situation seemed to give the Grun-

raise money for charity.”

As the news conference went on, the only race that had both opponents on hand heated up with Callahan jumping out of his seat pointing his finger at Kelley, challenging him to bring it on at the track after Kelley revealed he has experience on the track with his own race car.

“I have a race car at the house. The odds are against him to start with,” Kelley said before the news conference.

When the conference was wrapping up, Grundy County State’s Attorney Jason Helland came from behind the trucks in his bright yellow Morris Cruise Night shirt and grabbed the microphone from Kelley, interrupting emcee Mike Gugliemucci to make a challenge to Will County State’s Attorney Jim Glasgow.

“I challenge Glasgow to show up.

I fully expect to beat everyone racing,” Helland said after the news conference.

“I’m the biggest gearhead here. I’ve been there [Route 66 Raceway] with personal vehicles. I can beat anyone they put me up against.”

The event was created to pay homage to early drag racing and hot rod culture.

It will feature nostalgia match racing including funny cars, gassers and pro stocks and a classic car cruise-in. Fans walking into the facility will take a step back in time to the age of poodle skirts, pin-up girls, sock hops, hood ornaments and white walls.

MORRIS – Mallory Meyer of Morris knows she wants to major in nursing when she heads off to college.

Meyer will be spending this summer interning at Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers for the second year in a row as part of the Grundy County summer internship program.

“I worked in human resources last year. I plan to major in nursing and I knew that the experience would help,” she said. “I’ve been exposed to new things and to so many opportunities.”

This year Meyer will work in the business office and feels the opportunity to return for her second year will help her see other job opportunities that may be available to her once she gets her nursing degree.

She is one of 29 local high school students or recent graduates interning with major companies through a Grundy County summer internship program.

A kickoff breakfast was held June

10 at LyondellBasell to formally recognize and congratulate the students participating.

After Nancy Norton Ammer, CEO of the Grundy Economic Development Council, opened the morning’s event, state Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris, spoke about the agriculture and manufacturing district she serves, encouraging students participating to look at job opportunities in their own communities.

The internship program was founded in 2013 by the Grundy Area Vocational Center and the Grundy Economic Development Council, with help from Rezin, local educators and a small group of local companies.

Ammer said the 29 paid internships this year are with 15 companies, offering a diverse set of opportunities for local students.

The Grundy County Internship Program was based on a mutual desire expressed by leaders in education and industry to highlight local employment opportunities and retain local talent in Grundy County.

Shaw Media correspondent CHANNAHON – Channahon police officers and firefighters were recognized last week at the village board meeting for their efforts in two separate incidents, one of which contributed to saving a life and the other of which located a resident lost in the woods.

Officers Ed Bischoff and Mike Yoakum were first responders at the scene of a suspected heroin overdose recently. Bischoff told trustees at the June 6 village board meeting the male victim was unconscious, not breathing and had a bluish tint to his skin by the time he arrived.

Bischoff said he administered more than one dose of the opioid antidote Narcan to the man until Channahon Fire Protection District firefighters and paramedics arrived to transport the man to a hospital. The man started

coming around in the ambulance, Bischoff said, and by the time he arrived at the hospital, they knew he was going to make it.

“Everybody did great,” firefighter and paramedic Tyler Yost said. “It was a great effort.”

Channahon Village President Missey Moorman Schumacher said the incident was the result of the two emergency services working together as a team.

“You saved a life,” she said. “It doesn’t get any better than that.”

In addition to Bischoff, Yoakum and Yost receiving recognition for the incident, so did fire district Lt. Ryan Jandura and firefighters and paramedics Jason Hartman, Jeremy Wilson and Zachary Toepper.

The other recognitions of the evening went to a resident, Ant h o n y K e l l o g g , C h a n n a h o n p olice officers Mike Klett and Justin Bennett and other officers, and sev-

eral firefighters and paramedics.

Channahon Chief of Police Jeff Wold said Kellogg had pulled over in his car to check on an elderly woman parked in a car by herself near Front and Fryer streets.

She had no cellphone with her and told Kellogg that she was worried about her husband, who had gone into the brush a couple of hours ago to look for his wallet, which he believed he had lost while searching for mushrooms the day before.

By then, night had fallen and the temperature was dropping. Kellogg called the police, and Klett responded.

The officer called the woman’s husband on his cellphone, and he said he was lost in the woods in the backwaters of the Des Plaines River.

The brush was too thick to travel through, he told Klett, and he had no flashlight.

Other officers worked with Klett and Bennett to find the resident, as did

several firefighters and paramedics in the Channahon fire district, which had been contacted to assist with its boat.

Klett and Bennett, in the end, found the man and brought him to safety, reuniting him with his wife.

At the meeting, Klett, Bennett and Officer Brad Bucciarelli received recognition, as did firefighters and paramedics Toepper, Wilson, Terrance O’Hern, Adam Hughes, Scott Schneider and Brett Proctor, as well as Fire Chief John Petrakis, Deputy Chief Jeff Toepper and Lts. Jandura and Matt Skole.

Kellogg also received recognition for what one officer called, “an unselfish act to help out a complete stranger,” noticing something amiss and acting on it, notifying the police and staying with the missing man’s wife throughout the search.

“We appreciate your actions and your concern of strangers,” Schumacher said.

MORRIS – A manufacturing facility in Morris was ablaze last week.

Shortly after 9 p.m. June 8, first responders were called to the Sponge Cushion Inc. facility at 902 Armstrong St. for a structure fire, said Tracey Steffes, chief of the Morris Fire Protection & Ambulance District.

On arrival, crews found the fire at

the rear of the building.

Steffes said boxes on pallets had caught fire.

Employees began to move the flaming boxes outside the facility, he said, but the fire spread to the manufacturer’s product, causing the pace of the blaze to quicken and forcing the employees to evacuate.

First responders had the majority of the fire out in about 15 minutes, Steffes said.

DEA, Will County authorities announce arrest of Essex man

By BRIAN STANLEY

bstanley@shawmedia.com JOLIET – The U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency and the Will County Sheriff’s Office on June 8 announced the arrest of Stephen J. Carroll, 51, of Essex, whom they described as a “major heroin supplier to southern Will County.”

At about 11 p.m.

June 7, DEA agents and the Will County Sheriff’s Gang Suppression Stephen Unit obtained search J. Carroll warrants for homes in the Essex and Reddick areas. The warrants were executed the morning of June 8 at Carroll’s Essex residence, 13886 W. 4250 N. Road, and at a second residence in Reddick, according to a news release from the sheriff’s office.

Carroll was taken into custody and bank records were seized along with a minor amount of cannabis, authorities said.

The DEA began its investigation on Carroll in April 2015, after receiving information from citizens about

potential drug activity, according to the news release. The DEA requested assistance in April of this year from the gang suppression unit and “together they have spent countless hours” investigating Carroll’s activities.

Authorities “believe that Carroll has been involved in selling heroin on the streets for many years and that he is most likely the most consistent supplier of heroin to the Wilmington and southern Will County areas,” the news release stated.

“During the investigation DEA and GSU came to believe that Carroll was not a user of heroin and not one who kept large amounts of heroin,” sheriff’s spokeswoman Kathy Hoffmeyer said. “He was methodical and organized in his ‘business.’ He would buy in small portions, sell in small portions, and would repeat the process over and over and over.”

Carroll was charged last week with one count of calculated criminal drug conspiracy and two counts of unlawful delivery of a controlled substance. His bond has been set at $6 million.

MORRIS – Police officers swarmed the parking lot at Waverly and Liberty streets the morning of June 9 as they prepared for action.

It wasn’t a drill. It was the annual running of the Flame of Hope down Liberty Street, on its way to Normal.

The Flame of Hope traveled in recent weeks throughout Illinois, making its way to Normal, where police officers throughout the state will carry it to the opening ceremonies for Special Olympics Illinois.

“We do this every year as a way to let the community know that Special Olympics is still going strong,” Morris police officer Jessica Smith said.

Smith organizes the event for the police department and said Special Olympics holds a special place in her heart. Her sister, Beth Hammond, participated in Special Olympics years ago.

Special Olympian Drew Kirkman of Morris was on hand to watch the officers run and bicycle with the torch.

“It’s good. I should have signed up for it, but it’s too late now,” he said.

He said that he hopes he can participate alongside the officers next year.

mer Games.”

Livingston County Sheriff’s deputies and Pontiac correctional officers took the torch at the Grundy County Sheriff’s department and transported it by bicycle on to Pontiac to complete the June 9 leg of the run.

“This is a very special event that we enjoy being a part of,” Morris Deputy Police Chief John Severson said before the run.

The Morris Police Department raises money throughout the year to donate to Special Olympics with events such as the Faculty vs. The Fuzz basketball game and Cop on Top events.

Police Chief Brent Dite said it’s important for the police department to carry on the tradition.

More than 4,000 athletes are expected to compete at the State Summer Games, which begin Friday and continue through Sunday at Illinois State University in Normal. Competition will be offered in track and field, aquatics, bocce ball, gymnastics, powerlifting, and soccer.

In the 27 years since law enforcement got involved statewide, they have raised nearly $28 million and helped bring attention to Illinois Special Olympics athletes, according to Special Olympics Illinois.

Public comment extended on Great Lakes Basin rail

Surface Transportation Board extends comment period to July 15

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – The Surface Transportation Board announced in a news release Friday an extension to the comment period for the draft scope of study for the preparation of the environmental impact statement for Great Lakes Basin Transportation Inc.’s proposed rail line construction.

As proposed, the Great Lakes Basin Railroad project would run 275 miles from La Porte, Indiana, to Milton, Wisconsin, and cut through Grundy County.

Those spearheading the estimated $8 billion effort filed paperwork in March with the federal Surface

Transportation Board, the governmental agency responsible for approving or denying the project on its merits while examining potential environmental impacts.

The paperwork triggered hearings and a comment period for the public and interested parties.

The original deadline in May had already been pushed back to June 15.

This recent deadline extension will keep the comment period open until July 15.

According to the news release, the deadline “has been extended an additional 30 days until July 15, 2016.

No further time extensions will be granted.”

The news release also states that any comments previously submitted do not need to be resubmitted.

For information, including how to file written comments, visit www.

GreatLakesBasinRailEIS.com or call Dave Navecky with the board’s office of environmental analysis at 202-2450294.

MORRIS – Ted and Tina Watson were visiting a craft show when they saw glass art they loved.

They were so inspired that they set out to create some of their own art in a similar style and started shopping thrift stores and antique stores to find just the right pieces to go together.

“We started making them for ourselves and it got out of hand,” Tina said. “That’s when we started selling them.”

The couple, who live in Oswego, come to Morris for the 3 French Hens market each month with their latest creations. Tina said the inspirations are endless as she puts various candy dishes, serving platters, candle holders and glass plates together to create everything from flowers to bird feeders.

The flowers were the item that got them started, but before long the pieces got bigger and more complex.

She said the flowers typically only take about a half an hour to make, but the bigger, more creative pieces can take up to two weeks because they have to wait for glue to cure before adding the next aspect of the piece.

UP CLOSE Making Music Photos by Heidi Litchfield hlitchfield@shawmedia.com

MORRIS – The Gebhard Woods Dulcimer and Traditional Music Festival returned last week to Goold Park.

The festival changed venues in 2014 because of flooding in April 2013, which caused extensive damage to Gebhard Woods State Park, forcing the festival to be canceled that year.

Canopies were spread throughout the park, providing needed shade from the heat as musicians met and played their dulcimers, banjos, ukuleles and other instruments.

TOP RIGHT: Mike Anderson, who also performs as Hugo Kringle, plays the ukulele Saturday at Goold Park.

TOP LEFT: Bing Futch (right) smiles and talks with a festivalgoer after his performance Saturday on the main stage.

ABOVE LEFT: Judy Crawford cools off in the shade as she waits for the next workshop to begin.

Minooka community service project designed to make summer reading easy

Caraynoff said Minooka Grain and Lumber donated the lumber, and the village of Minooka dug the post holes.

Volunteer Jake Weaver said the

kids learned about making mistakes, as well, as the first one they built was all wrong.

“The first one we burned in my fire pit,” he said. “It literally went down in flames.”

Kristen said she has several books she will donate, including ones about cats, kittens and puppies, and one called, “Misty the Abandoned Kitten.”

“I think there will be a lot of little girls who will come and some little boys,” she said. “And they can read

with their mom and dad, too.”

Lina said she’s going to be looking for some donated books herself, such as anything from the “Land of Stories” series by Chris Colfer.

Brayden said he’s looking for “Star Wars” books.

The Minooka 4-H Plus One Homeschool Club is also involved in other community service projects, such as Pop Tab Dump Day and creating a pollination garden in Lions Park in Minooka.

MINOOKA – For those who haven’t noticed yet, there is a new library in town.

It’s a small one. In fact, it’s called the Little Free Library – but its potential is large.

The new library is not a building, but a kind of outdoor enclosed bookcase that contains hardbacks and paperbacks, fiction and nonfiction, for the old and young. Books can be borrowed by anyone at any time without checking them out or paying for them.

When a book is read, the reader can return it or lend it to someone else. Easy.

It’s located in front of the Minooka Village Hall, directly across from Minooka Creamery, and with its bright red-and-white barn appearance, it’s not easily missed.

The library is the result of a community service project by the kids in the Minooka 4-H Plus One Homeschool Club.

“You take one, you read it, and you give it back,” said the club’s president, 11-year-old Brayden Caraynoff-Huber.

“It’s free sharing at one place. It saves money on books.”

“I think it’s a really good idea because we’re also helping the really young children learn how to read,” said the club’s treasurer, Kristen Hightower, also 11.

Secretary Lina Spielman, 13, donated a box of books to the library and said she was happy to share them with others who might enjoy them.

“It’s good for the community,” she said. “You don’t have to return them like a regular library. ... I hope a lot of people use it. There are a lot of families with little kids and other people who are just looking for something to read.”

The library was just installed and already people have been taking notice and borrowing. It was the 4-H club’s leader, Kelly Caraynoff, who came up with the idea, seeing other examples online.

“We all had a hand in the construction,” she said.

The parents and other adult volunteers cut the wood and did a lot of the woodworking, and the kids helped them with the design, assembly and painting. Each of the 12 active members of the club helped, including pressing their painted hands around the bottom of the structure. The barn design even has real shingles on its

Local industry hires interns from county

MORRIS – Thanks to the generosity of LyondellBasell, a kickoff breakfast was held June 10 to formally recognize and congratulate the 29 students selected for the 2016 Grundy County Internship Program.

Nancy Ammer, CEO of the Grundy Economic Development Council, opened the event by thanking the businesses, students and educators in attendance. State Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris, emphasized that the students should take pride in being chosen for this opportunity, and that the internships offer a chance to gain meaningful professional work experience and learn more about the many employment options within Grundy County.

Sean McCarthy, director of the Illinois Department of Commerce, was a special speaker and congratulated the students and businesses for the innovative program. He noted what a great honor it is for the students, and he encouraged them to seize every opportunity that comes their way.

Lance Copes, director of Grundy Area Vocational Center, and Brian Angwin, Morris site manager of LyondellBasell, also addressed the students and discussed the benefits and opportunities that will be afforded to them as part of this program. Copes challenged students to take advantage of the opportunity, while Angwin addressed the value of the program to local business.

The 29 paid internships this year are with 15 companies, offering a diverse set of opportunities for local students. The program began in 2013 with just 12 internships and three companies. The program continues to become more competitive as more than 70 students applied for the positions.

The Grundy County Internship Program was based on a mutual desire expressed by leaders in education and

industry to highlight local employment opportunities and retain local talent in Grundy County. Rezin and the GEDC partnered with local industry and education to launch the program in 2013.

To provide the students with an authentic experience, job descriptions outlining the skills and criteria for each position were posted at Coal City, Gardner, Minooka and Morris high schools. Students then applied for positions they were interested in by submitting a resume. Companies scheduled and conducted interviews with candidates and extended offers to their interns in late spring.

OPINIONS

The Democrats got a bit of good news and some serious bad news in a recent Capitol Fax/We Ask America poll. And that bad news is particularly negative for anyone who can be credibly connected to House Speaker Michael Madigan.

The poll of 1,231 registered Illinois voters found presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton leading presumptive GOP nominee Donald Trump by 12 points, 47 to 35.

An additional 7 percent said they were voting for Libertarian Party candidate Gary Johnson and 12 percent were undecided. The poll was taken June 5 to 6, had a margin of error of +/-3 percent and 39 percent of the responses came from mobile phone users.

John Kerry won this state by 12 points in 2004, the last time an Illinois resident wasn’t on the presidential ticket. So Clinton’s numbers are already aligning with Kerry’s. And the poll was taken before Illinois’ U.S. Sen. Mark Kirk and other Republicans withdrew their support from Trump.

Clinton is leading 67 to 17 in Chicago and 47 to 35 in suburban Cook County.

Trump, however, is ahead 42 to 38 in the suburban collar counties and leads by 10 points, 45 to 35, among downstate voters – the location of some potentially very hot state legislative battles, so it’s not all good news for the Dems.

As Gov. Bruce Rauner’s people have been warning for months, the Democratic House speaker is getting the blame for the yearlong governmental impasse by a huge margin.

“The Illinois General Assembly has once again adjourned its spring session without a budget agreement – an ongoing situation that some feel is caused by a clash between Governor Bruce Rauner and Speaker Mike Madigan,” poll respondents were told. They were then asked to assign blame between the two men.

The poll found that voters blame Madigan by a decisive 21-point margin, 55 to 34, with just 9 percent saying “both” and a mere 2 percent saying they were still undecided.

The polling company conducted a similar survey late last month for another client. Based on that earlier polling, the firm’s principal Gregg Durham said there “seems to be a widening gap

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Rich Miller putting the Speaker in the lead in the budget blame game.” Durham noted that while Rauner enjoys “relative solidarity among Republican voters, Speaker Madigan’s numbers are comparatively soft among Democrats.”

For example, 28 percent of people who have taken Democratic ballots two out of the last three cycles say Madigan is chiefly to blame. Independents blamed Madigan 49 to 39.

Chicago is the only region that blames Rauner over Madigan for the impasse, 52 to 35. But there is only one contested race in the city, and Chicago GOP Rep. Michael McAuliffe’s district includes suburban Cook territory as well, where Madigan is blamed 54 to 36. And there are lots of expectedly competitive legislative races coming up in suburban Cook. About 7 percent blame both in Cook County and 3 percent are undecided.

Downstate voters predictably blame Madigan over Rauner 59 to 29, with 11 percent blaming both and an almost microscopic 1 percent saying they’re undecided. Just about everybody has an opinion on this one, and that opinion is not good for the Democrats.

Madigan does worst among collar-county voters, where 64 percent blame the Speaker and just 27 percent blame Rauner, with 2 percent undecided and 8 percent blaming both men.

Just 29 percent of men blame Rauner, but a very strong 62 percent blame Madigan. An additional 7 percent say both are to blame and 1 percent are undecided. Fifty percent of female votes point their finger at Madigan as opposed to 38 percent who blame Rauner.

Ten percent of women blame both and 3 percent are undecided.

So why continue down this path?

The answer from multiple sources is that Madigan is convinced it’s up to him to stop Rauner in his tracks, even if that means taking some losses.

How you can stay green this summer

The summer months are upon us, Grundy County! The Land Use Department asks how will you and your family green our efforts at home and on vacation, find good summer projects for the children and teens, enjoy the great outdoors, and recycle.

Conservation

Conserving water is a natural response to the hotter months that we will be experiencing. Many communities institute water bans. A great way to store water on those prohibited days is to harvest the stormwater or rain water from your roof by catching it into a rain barrel. Rain barrels may be bought either at the local hardware store or online, and they come in many different colors and shapes.

Conserving energy is a good way to protect our planet by turning the thermostat up during the summer months; using or installing whole house fans, or ceiling fans that will help keep homes cooler.

Conserving during your vacation is also possible. Turning up the thermo-

stat and lowering water heater temperatures at home prior to leaving on vacation will save money and resources. Once on vacation, hotels generally have a laundry option that will give the option to the guest on when the sheets and towels will be cleaned, which saves energy and water both.

Building Green

Building green is another option that with today’s construction material market is easy to obtain. Many companies produce paints, carpeting, woodworking, shingles and garden/ lawn products made from post-consumer products. Green materials are defined as having five properties: 1) Resource efficiency 2) Indoor air quality 3) Energy efficiency

4) Water conservation 5) Affordability Also during remodeling projects, considering donating older cabinets, plumbing fixtures and hardware to a local charity that may be able to put those materials to good re-use.

Summer projects for the kids and families

In the 2016 Green Guide there are several arts and crafts project webpages that kids can complete that will aid not only in them enjoying their summer months, but also employ the use of common household items that may be recycled or disposed of.

Teens may also want to use the 2016 Green Guide – which can be found at grundyco.org – to find summer projects that will provide more to their communities. The 2016 Green Guide also includes many family outdoor games, compost projects, and crafts that everyone may participate and work together on. Gives a chance to enhance family togetherness and provide for the environment as well.

Recycling/Reusing

The Grundy County Land Use Department will be collecting used children’s books for the Bernie’s Book Bank through the end of July.

We also collect household alkaline batteries at our location, cellphones for soldiers, and eyeglasses and hearing aids for the Lions Club.

Please donate these items at the Grundy County Administration Building, 1320 Union St. in Morris, between 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Thank you, Grundy County, for making our community a better place to live by recycling and investing into future generations!

Legislators, officials tour Grundy County agricultural businesses

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Agriculture in Grundy County is a growing and diverse field.

Showing the diversity to legislators and local officials is what the annual Grundy County Farm Bureau farm tour is all about. The group touring the county boarded a bus Friday morning and set out to visit Granby’s Greenhouse in Verona, where plants are grown and sold both commercially to retailers such as Menards as well as to the public.

“I just wanted to see the farms. I didn’t know that Granby’s Greenhouse sells to the public as well,” Grundy County Board Member Debra Warning said. “It’s a beautiful opportunity to see the work of the farmers.”

She said seeing the family legacy and learning about today’s technology was an important aspect of agriculture in the county.

Morris Alderman Julian Houston attended the tour with perhaps a little more knowledge, since he farms locally as well.

“I wanted to come because I thought it would be interesting to see how others operate,” Houston said.

We are using this year’s sports theme to attempt to reach out to people in the community that might not think of the library because the library doesn’t automatically equal activity to many people.

Three Rivers Public Library District adult services librarian

Channahon Three Rivers Library offers celebration of sports and achievement SUBMITTED REPORT CHANNAHON – Three Rivers Public Library District launched its “Read – For the Win!” Summer Reading Program on Monday.

During the next two months, the library will host a range of free, sportsthemed programs and activities for adults that encourage and support a love of reading. Participants also can win prizes for reaching their reading goals.

“We’ve planned some really exciting programs this summer to enhance summer reading for adults, in addition to our regular children’s reading program,” Sarah Robertson, an adult services librarian, said in a news release.

“We are using this year’s sports theme to attempt to reach out to people in the community that might not think of the library because the library doesn’t automatically equal activity to many people.

“We hope to draw these adults in to the library with our programming, then show them all the other services the library has to offer that can accentuate their activities, like our free music downloads, self-contained audiobooks and e-audios, plus plenty of fitness and sports-related books and magazines. ” Adult-specific themed events include programs on baseball, football, golf and more. In June, “Baseball in the Movies,” will celebrate the great American pastime with Steven Frenzel of Marquee Movie Presentations and his

collection of clips from classic baseball films. Enjoy scenes and stories from movies such as “Take Me Out to the Ballgame,” “Pride of the Yankees,” and Abbott and Costello’s “Who’s on First” routine. This program will be at 1 p.m.

June 18 at the Minooka Branch.

Golf professional Brian Smith of the Heritage Bluffs Public Golf Club in Channahon will present two programs for summer reading, “The Beginner’s Guide to Golf” at 1 p.m. June 25, an instructional overview of golf rules, etiquette, equipment and other basics of playing the game, and “The Art of Golf” at 1 p.m. July 16 at the golf course, a hands-on instruction that will help you learn swing techniques and postures, preparation, how to maximize your performance and more.

In July, two different football-related programs will kick off at the library.

The first, “History of Football,” takes place at 6 p.m. July 12 at the Minooka Branch. Football is as American as apple pie, but how much do you actually know about how this national pastime came to be? Relive the rowdy, formative years of football with author and Chicago native Joe Ziemba. With rare archival photos and surprising insight into local historical figures, Ziemba offers a humorous look at the wacky early days of professional football.

The second program, “Fantasy Football: Create a League,” takes place at the Minooka Branch at 6 p.m. July 27. If you have ever wanted to get in on the fun of fantasy football but

didn’t know how, fantasize no longer.

Learn the ropes to creating your own league, including the best time to start a league, the ins and outs of creating a team, game rules, and other tips to help your league run smoothly.

Registration is required for adult programs at Three Rivers Library.

For information or to register for programs such as summer reading for all ages, visit the library’s website at www.trpld.org.

Adult programs are open to anyone over the age of 16. Visitors also can register in person or by calling at either library location. Three Rivers Public Library District – Channahon Library is located at 25207 W. Channon Drive in Channahon, 815-467-6200, and the Minooka Branch is located at 109 N. Wabena Ave. in Minooka, 815-467-1600.

COPING WITH LOSS There are different cultural norms related to caring for aging parents. In some cultures, children welcome aging parents into their households and provide daily care for them as needed. In other cultures, parents live in their own homes as long as possible, relying on children to help them with activities of daily living. When children are the only caregivers, they often find juggling work, family, and caregiving tasks overwhelming.

Many healthcare agencies offer respite care to give exhausted family caregivers a break from their caregiving responsibilities. With respite care, the agency provides qualified personnel to give temporary care to senior clients on a one-time or regularly scheduled

basis, and weary caregivers get time to relax.

If you’re caring for a loved one, you need regular breaks to recharge your batteries.

Otherwise your quality of care will degrade.

Let us give you the breaks that you need.

We offer a flexible suite of options, including occasional overnight respite care, so that you can enjoy an evening out once in a while.You don’t have to go it alone.

model hospital for others.”

Steadham said that Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers already had a strong reputation for delivering compassionate and personalized patient care when it embarked on its service excellence journey with Studer Group in 2006.

However, the leaders of Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers at the time were convinced that adopting the Studer Group principles would help take Morris Hospital to the next level.

In the past 10 years, leaders of Morris Hospital have developed standards of conduct, formed patient satisfaction, service recovery, reward

and recognition and communication teams, and incorporated rounding, thank you notes, and key words into daily actions.

Weekly management huddles and tri-annual employee forums have become part of the culture at Morris Hospital and are key means of communication today.

“Over the past decade, Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers has only gotten better as a place for employees to work, for physicians to practice medicine, and for patients to receive care,” Steadham said, citing these examples: Ten years ago, 33.6 percent of employees said Morris Hospital &

Healthcare Centers is an “excellent” place to work.

On the most recent employee engagement survey conducted in 2015, 79.7 percent of employees gave Morris Hospital an “excellent” rating. Today, 67.1 percent of physicians say Morris Hospital is an excellent place to practice medicine, compared with 62.3 percent in 2009.

In 2006, Morris Hospital received one 5-Star Excellence in Healthcare Award and two 4-Star awards based on patients’ perceptions of care. This year, Morris Hospital is receiving seven 5-Star awards for patient perception and two 4-Star awards.

“As Morris Hospital’s Studer Group coach for the past six years, I can attest that Morris Hospital leadership has always been driven to attain excellence across all of its pillars: people, quality, service, growth, finance and community,” Studer Group coach Alida Zamboni said. “I have coached at all size hospitals across the U.S., and I can honestly say that there a few hospitals that have maintained the consistency of excellence that Morris Hospital has. Leaders, employees and physicians truly live the mission of Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers.”

MORRIS – Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers has been recognized for setting an example of excellence by being named Studer Group’s Rural Healthcare Organization of the Month.

Studer Group is a national firm focused on helping health care organizations become excellent places for employees to work, physicians to practice medicine, and patients to receive care using evidence-based leadership development and customer service strategies. Studer Group presents an award each month to an organization that has achieved remarkable results and shares the organization’s success on their website as an example for other hospitals.

“In a way, we are the equivalent of Studer Group’s Fire Starter of the Month,” Mark Steadham, president & CEO of Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers, said in a news release, referring to the award Morris Hospital presents to a stellar employee each month, using a term coined by Studer Group. “This award is a tremendous honor because it recognizes the progress we’ve made in our excellence journey, and it positions us as a role

MORRIS – For much of the past season, the word about the Morris girls basketball team was that the Redskins had talent, but were young.

Now those young players have a year under their belts, and suddenly Morris is an experienced team.

That was on display Tuesday in the three games of pool play in the 20th annual Morris Ladies Shootout, as the Redskins notched wins over Canton (40-33), Joliet West (39-32) and Danville (35-26).

The wins put Morris in the championship bracket Wednesday, and the Redskins began play at 8 a.m.

Junior Mya Shannon and senior Meghan Smith are each entering their third years of varsity play, while seniors Megan Jurak and Jasmine Cook each have a full season of varsity experience. Juniors Paige Valentine and Amanda Schmidt both saw some varsity action as sophomores last season.

Even with only eight players to start the day, the Redskins played solid basketball in both games, especially in their 1-3-1 zone defense. They were able to use their speed and anticipation to create turnovers and get baskets in transition. Meanwhile, Schmidt gave them an outside shooting threat that they didn’t have last year.

After winning twice over the weekend, Morris had won its first four games of the summer season – something coach Kate Carey didn’t expect.

“I really didn’t think we’d be 4-0 right away,” she said. “We have been playing really well. The girls love playing the 1-3-1 and they keep getting better at it. We still need some work on our man-to-man defense, but I made them a deal. When we score on offense, they can play the defense they want.

When we don’t score, they play the defense I want. Hopefully that will give them the incentive to be a little more selective in their shots and give us a better chance to score.”

Schmidt drained three 3-pointers in the first half against Canton, preventing the Bulldogs from sagging inside when Shannon drove to the basket.

That kept lanes open for Shannon to either go all the way to the hoop and try to score or it left available the option to pass it off to either Smith or Jurak underneath.

When point guard Shannon needed a break, the added experience of Cook, Schmidt and Valentine prevented the opposing teams from causing too many problems with pressure defense. Add to the mix the hustle of junior Ashley

Hood to go after nearly every loose ball and it was a complete team effort by the Redskins.

“Ashley gives us a little toughness that we have needed,” Carey said.

“She’s not afraid to stick her nose in there. And Paige and Jasmine look a lot more comfortable than they did last year. With only eight players, Mya is going to need a break, and with Paige and Jasmine being more experienced, it’s easier for us to do that.”

In both games, Morris owned a good-sized lead in the second half, only to see the other team tighten the gap to a basket. However, the Redskins were able to stop the rallies and put some points on the board to get the lead back to more than one possession.

“This was a good day,” Carey said.

“We didn’t have Ashley for the second game because she had volleyball camp to go to, and Madi Mayberry had to work today, so we weren’t quite full strength. The girls that were here did a really good job.”

Coal City girls look to 4 seniors for leadership

By JEFF DEGRAW

Shaw Media correspondent MORRIS – Coal City’s girls basketball team is looking to bounce back after a 13-17 record during the 2015-16 season, which was the first time the Coalers had more losses than wins since 2004-05.

Veteran coach Brad Schmitt will look to six veteran players to get the job done this season. Participating in the 20th annual Morris Ladies Shootout this week provides the type of competition the Coalers need to see to get prepared for the upcoming season. Their pool play at Morris includes Andrew, Lincoln-Way East and East Aurora.

“You have to prepare against everyone,” Schmitt said. “That is what we use the summer for, because you see so many different things thrown at you this time of year. We have a jam-packed month of games in June and that is good.

It’s not about winning in the summer, it’s about preparing.”

However, this week the Coalers will be without one of their mainstays, junior Bridget Kauzlaric. Another returning junior on the team is Lindsay Stopka.

“Bridget is not here this week, but that is good in a way,” Schmitt said. “We have

to learn not to always look for Bridget, we need the others to step up and take a leadership role. We have that with a group of four seniors – Cali Caruso, Maddie Halliday, Mackenzie Bugg and Kenady Clayburn. They have been great role players since their sophomore season and now, as seniors, they need to show why they are the leaders. How they go is how we will go this year.

“One big thing for us this year is that we have no true point guard. It will be by committee and we have to hold the opponents down on the defensive end.”

Bugg has mixed feelings about her se-

nior year.

“It’s a weird feeling being a senior,” Bugg said. “Everywhere we go, including the summer, it’s the last time. Just like here, our last time at the Morris Shootout. I really like our team and I’m really working on my post play. I’m not the biggest person on the floor, so getting in the right position on both ends of the floor is key, especially getting rebounds.

“I’m excited for the season. We play a tough schedule and we have been together all through high school. We want to make the last year a special one.”

Caruso echoed some of those thoughts.

“It is kind of scary to be the last year,” Caruso said. “You really don’t want it to end. Right now we are all just trying to figure out each other. We have to get the sophomores adjusted to the team and making them feel a part of the team. My role is to be a leader and make shots. I love shooting the 3.”

In addition to the four seniors, the Coalers will have two juniors and five sophomores. The sophomores will be counted upon to come off the bench to provide valuable minutes.

“The attitude of this team has been great and it’s about playing together on the floor,” Schmitt said. “We have to get the young kids prepared to play at the varsity level. Our upperclassmen must carry us.”

Halliday hoped to continue building the Coalers’ hopes.

“We have a lot of potential on this team,” Halliday said. “Everyone has been working hard to improve over last year. Our attitude is good. When everyone finds and realizes their role we will be fine. We are young as a total team, but this year will be better than last and if, we as seniors, do our job, the juniors and sophomores will be even better in two years.”

“I’m working on my 3-point shooting, but the great part about this team is that we all are behind each other and I’m excited for the season and it’s only June.”

Minooka, a member of the Southwest Prairie Conference, will see the addition of Joliet Central and West into the conference, once the school year begins.

“I love that they are joining the conference,” Liberatore said. “I’m a fan of always playing the local teams and with Central and West joining the con-

ference, it will make it all the better. We already have such a tough conference, and it really prepares you for postseason. It will be fun to coach against them on a regular basis, and I have some close ties to some of the people at Joliet West.

“We have always tried to schedule teams we think we might meet up in the tournament, but, anymore, your guess is as good as mine as where we will end up on a year-to-year basis once the sites are announced. We will play wherever we get sent.”

Danta holds off Hoffman Jr. to win Friday at Grundy Speedway STAFF REPORTS MORRIS – It’s becoming a regular occurrence.

In yet another exciting down-tothe-wire finish, Anthony Danta edged contenders Eddie Hoffman Jr. and Tony Scapelli Jr. to win the Late Model 30-lap feature race at Grundy County Speedway on Friday night.

Danta, who started in the ninth position, actually fell back to 10th for a couple of laps early before surging from 10th to second on Lap 5. On stayed second behind John Nutley for two more laps before taking the lead for good on Lap 7.

Hoffman, however, started 12th and moved up to sixth by the time one lap was complete and third after two. He took over second on Lap 10 and followed Danta around the rest

of the way.

In the end, Danta finished just 0.150 seconds ahead of Hoffman and 0.777 ahead of third-place Tony Scapelli Jr., who had started 10th. Pole sitter Dave Einhuas finished fourth, with Joe Vinachi, James Gregait, Brandon Clubb, Garrett Schwartz, Nathan Bertino and John Nutley rounding out the top 10.

The Mid-American 25-lap feature also featured some excitement, especially on the final lap. Pole sitter John Ventrello led the first 24 laps of the race, only to see Ron Vandermeier Jr. and Kevin Murphy overtake him on the 25th circuit. Vandermeier won the race, finishing 0.667 seconds ahead of Murphy and 0.782 ahead of Ventrello.

Matt Clemens also finished within a second (0.968) of the leader in taking

fourth, followed by Cody Clubb, Kenny Benson, Jim Kachel, Kevin Gentile, Luke Baldwin and Jeff Wakeman rounding out the top 10.

In the Street Stock division’s 25lap feature, Tim Stewart went from starting third to the lead position in just two laps and ran in front the rest of the way to capture the checkered flag. He finished ahead of second-place John Senerchia, who was followed by Randy Weese, Mark Ross Jr., Christy Penrod, Rita Fields, Craig Matteson, Zac Sontag Jr., Rick Dawson and Cheryl Hryn.

In the 4-Cylinder division 15-lap feature, Tommy Gilmore was first when the checkered waved, but he was later disqualified for a rules infraction. That gave the win to Dylan Marshall, followed by Nick Clubb, Kyle Royster, Bruce Leake, Michael

Tobuch, Dan Schmissing, Scott Ingram, Jeff Law, Zach Orts and Tom Kaminski.

Racing continues this Friday night at Grundy County Speedway, located at Grundy County Fairgrounds, just north of Morris on Route 47. It is Hometown Hero night for Minooka and Channahon, as spectators showing IDs with those communities as their town of residence will get in for half-price.

Pits open at 4 p.m., with practice starting at 5. The stands open at 5:30 p.m. and qualifying begins at 6:45 p.m., with the first race scheduled to start at 8 p.m. in the full Late-Model, Mid-American, Street Stock and 4-Cylinder program. Ticket prices are $12 for adults, $10 for seniors, $5 for children ages 17 to 12, and kids 11 and younger enter for free.

MORRIS – There is no substitute e for speed on any athletic team. It’s a vital part of any team’s success, no matter what the sport.

That speed will be a key ingredient in the development of Minooka’s girls basketball team for the upcoming season.

“This will be the fastest team I have ever coached at Minooka,” veteran coach Ray Liberatore said, as the Indians participated in this week’s 20th annual Morris Ladies Shootout.

“I really like playing that type of basketball and we now have the speed and depth to really run and play a much faster transition game,” Liberatore said. “We are capable of being a very good shooting team and when you play that style, you better be able to hit the 3s and have capable players on the bench ready to play the same style when they come in the game. Sometimes we may sub three or four players at a time and everyone will see minutes.”

Minooka, which was 20-7 in each of the past two seasons, has a mix of four seniors, four juniors and two sophomores on the summer squad.

Senior Brooke Lynn Bachmann, a four-year starter who led the Indians in scoring last year, will be a key ingredient in the fast play-style. Bachmann was injured in the first game of the Shootout and had to receive stitches for

a cut on her head.

Bachmann also qualified for the girls state track and field finals in pole vault in May. “Brooke is a tremendous athlete,” Liberatore said. “She knows what to do in any given situation.”

Senior Abby Holloway is a threeyear starter on the team, and is performing the role of a summer team captain alongside Bachmann. Holloway said that she really likes what she has seen with the group.

“We are really playing well together this summer, especially with a larger group of incoming juniors joining us,” Holloway said. “We really are bonding well and it was a fun trip this summer when we went to Illinois Wesleyan for some summer games. It’s important to get everyone together early.

“I like the fact that we will be more up-tempo this season. Sometimes you get tired, but we have depth and everyone has their own skill set. I’m taking the summer to really work on my offensive game. I’m more of a defensive specialist, but need to bring more offense to the team this year.”

A third senior who aims to make big contributions is Hailey Arlis.

FOOTBALL

By ROB OESTERLE

Besides coaching defensive tackles as a grad assistant, another part of Olson’s job is recruiting. He says that the use of technology has changed that aspect of the game dramatically as well.

“Back when I was in high school, you had to make a DVD with your highlights and send them out,” he said.

“Now, you get an email from a kid in, say, Wyoming or Idaho, and you can click on a link and see him. The change in technology has really changed recruiting. Now, if someone backs out or something falls through, we have plenty to choose from at the click of a mouse. It saves programs time and money not having to send people out and get to all of these schools.”

With all of his moving around, not all of his credits have transferred to every school, so Olson has been a professional student for a while. He hopes that ends at Syracuse.

“This will be my ninth year of taking college courses,” he said. “I hope to finish up my master’s here at Syracuse. It’s such a good school with a great academic reputation. I have realized that college coaching is a lot about connections. It still matters what you

know, but who you have connections with is important, too. I like being around [Syracuse head coach] Dino Babers because he really lives in the present. He wants to be good now, this year, every year. His attitude is, ‘Why settle?’ and I agree with that.

“I hope one day to have my own position to coach and be more than a grad assistant. I have had more than a few guys tell me they think I’m ready. I just have to look for the best opportunity.”

Until then, Olson and his brother Jake will continue to work with the Orange – but not before taking some time to return to his roots in July.

“Jake wants to work on the operations side of things,” Olson said. “And he got an internship at Syracuse, too. I was able to show him the ropes at Eastern and hopefully I will be able to here, too.

“I will also be back in Morris soon.

I always like to come back. I am still a Morris kid at heart. I can’t wait to go to Coal City Area Club and Ebbey George’s, maybe grab a sandwich or two at Boz’s or Corleone’s and breakfast with Grandpa at the Morris Pancake House.”

Week 1 of YMCA fishing camp is in the books as a success Monday morning started with a slight chill in the air and sunny skies. I packed up 240 worms, numerous other panfish baits, dozens of bobbers and hooks, and several bags of weights.

With my bag packed, I headed to our first location for Week 1 of the YMCA fishing camp.

A few minutes before the official event began, the first cars pulled in.

Moms and dads got out and opened the back doors of the vehicles.

Little kids – ranging in age from kindergarten through third grade – swarmed my way. Some bounded with excitement, others with a little bit of apprehension, and some with confidence.

They were all going fishing.

The high schoolers who volunteered to help probably had no idea what was about to confront them.

A flurry of hook tying and worm threading filled the clock.

Before long, the first excited screams of “I got one!” pierced the quiet surroundings.

There are few things in the outdoor world that can match the

INTO THE OUTDOORS Steve Rogers excitement of a kid swelling up when he or she catches a fish.

You would think they just won the lottery. Camera phones snatched up memories and recorded video.

Those grins were too adorable to pass up.

I was also fortunate enough on day one of the camp to help some kids who have never picked up a rod or reel before.

This was the first time they ever fished.

Luckily for us, most everyone was able to catch at least one fish on the first day. Some were even fortunate to climb into the double digits for fish landed.

One first-timer was having a hard time getting a bite. We could see fish all around his worm, but those finicky critters wanted nothing to do with it.

I had the child reel in and I took some time to slip the bobber up the line.

I told him that I thought if we fished a little deeper, those bluegills might just decide to participate.

After a few adjustments to his rig, we cast it out again and in a split second the bobber dipped below the surface and ran away from us.

His face lit up like it was Christmas morning.

The line darted and danced from left to right. Finally he lifted the rod skyward and a chunky bluegill swirled in front of him.

“That was awesome!” he shouted.

Grandma was able to capture his first fish ever caught. Memory made. We unhooked the shocked panfish and slipped him back into the lake. Two more casts yielded two more nice fish.

I think that little guy could have stayed on the bank of that lake shore the rest of the day. I know that he was not quite ready to leave when it was time to pack up. I don’t know how many times I heard him say, “That was awesome!”

That’s what it is all about. Those three little words.

Believe me, keeping a gaggle of youngsters out of the trees and supplied with worms is enough to make a grown man collapse with exhaustion.

But it is worth the smiles and anticipation for the next cast.

After all the cars had left, my weary body relished an ice-cold drink and some time to recuperate.

That night I knew my evening would be occupied with sorting through my tackle, repacking what I might need for Day 2, and replenishing the supply of worms.

I can only hope that Day 2 would be just as fulfilling for those young anglers as opening morning was.

Maybe someday the love of catching a fish will be enough to inspire them to take their own children out.

If I’m still running the camp when their kids come through, I am going to need a lot more help. The younger kind.

SYRACUSE, NY – When he was playing football for Morris Community High School as a junior, in a game against Geneva, Ben Olson had a strange feeling.

Make that a strange lack of feeling.

Olson’s body went numb, and it was soon discovered that he was afflicted with Guillain-Barré Syndrome. That didn’t stop Olson from continuing his football career, and he helped lead the Redskins to second place in Class 5A the next season – 2007 – before going Ben Olson on to play for Eastern Illinois University.

While at Eastern, he was drawn to the coaching side of football. He had intended to become a gym teacher and high school football coach, but realized that he had more of an interest in staying at the college level if possible.

He has been able to do that, and his career has flourished. After being a graduate assistant at Eastern Illinois,

Rose-Hulman and Bowling Green, Olson began a job this summer at Syracuse University, where he is a graduate assistant coach for defensive tackles for the Orange and head coach Dino Babers, whom he coached under at Bowling Green for the last two years.

“It has been fun,” Olson said about his travels. “I have never lived in a big city like Syracuse before or been part of a big-time Division I football program like this. People sometimes forget because Syracuse has been a great basketball school for so long, but they have a very good football tradition, too.

You have the number 44, which goes back to Jim Brown, Ernie Davis and Floyd Little, to guys like Donovan McNabb, Marvin Harrison, Larry Csonka. Then there’s Dwight Freeney and Chandler Jones who are in the NFL right now.

“I’ve only been here for three weeks, but I love it here. It’s a great city and it’s such a difference. There’s a big change from a big Division I school like this compared to Rose-Hulman, which is Division III. Sometimes I feel like Dorothy in the ‘Wizard of Oz.’ I am not in Morris, anymore, that’s for sure.”

These tiny cracks are caused by repetitive stress and can develop over days, weeks or months. Stress fractures can also arise from normal use of a bone that’s been weakend by a condition such as osteoporosis or osteopenia.

Symptoms may include: pain that increases with activity and decreases with rest, pain that increases over time, pain that occurs earlier in each successive workout, pain that persists even at rest and swelling.

Q: What is a “stress fracture,” and how is it treated?

I’ve heard of a Buyers’ Market and a Sellers’ Market.

What are they and which one are we in now?

Jeffrey J. Blanco, O.D.

A: The following is from the Review of Optometry, May 2016 and I think it answers the above question. “Optometric patients should never have to subject themselves to the inconvenience, expense and relative incompetence of emergency departments. Whenever optometric patients call their optometrist’s office after hours, they should always get an answering machine/answering service guiding them to an optometrist. It’s simply the right thing to do.”

There are situations when neither an ophthalmologist or optometrist are within a reasonable drive so you may have to resort to the ER, however I personally agree with the Review of Optometry that some communication with your eye doctor, whether it means a visit to the office or phone instructions is the best approach.

A sellers’ market is when there are more buyers than there are homes on the market. During a sellers’ market, there are often multiple offers on properties and properties sell much faster. This results in increasing homes prices which is good for sellers. In a buyers’ market there are more homes on the market than there are buyers for those homes. In a buyers’ market, sellers compete against one another for the few buyers that exist. Often times sellers will lower their price to compete with all the competition. This results in declining home values which is good for buyers.

Real estate experts agree that a buyers’ market is defined as having greater than a 6 month supply of homes on the market and a sellers’ market is when there is less than a 6 month supply of homes on the market. When there is around a 6 month supply of homes that is a balanced market resulting in stable home prices.

Last month there was a 3.1 month supply of homes on the market in our local area. This is down from a 4.8 month supply in March of 2015 and down from a 7.2 month supply in March of 2014. We have moved from a buyers’ market two years ago to a very strong sellers’ market today! What does this mean? Houses will sell more quickly and often with multiple offers on them. So when you see the home that you like, don’t hesitate to make an offer. Otherwise another buyer may have the home under contract before you act.

PRICE JUMP FOR VANILLA

Higher cost for sweet flavoring stems from crop woes in Madagascar

By LISA ABRAHAM More Content Now

I recently heard from a reader in Westerville, Ohio, who wants to know why vanilla extract has become so expensive.

“I was at Costco a few weeks ago and was shocked to notice that the price of its vanilla extract had more than doubled,” Shirley Martin wrote.

“I priced McCormick’s at Kroger and saw that the price was significantly higher, also. Is there a drought, civil war or some other crisis in the area where vanilla beans are grown that has caused a big jump in cost?”

Bonus points to Martin for being such a price-savvy shopper: Vanilla prices have indeed taken a giant leap since January.

The increase has resulted from a bad crop last year in Madagascar, the island nation off the southeast coast of Africa where most of the world’s vanilla is produced.

Prized for its creamy flavor, Madagascar vanilla is used widely in the production of ice cream – so don’t be surprised if the price of your favorite scoop of vanilla rises, too.

Higher prices for vanilla from other top producing countries – Indonesia and Mexico – reflect the supply and demand.

The good news is that the vanilla market, known for volatility, swings the other way as rapidly as it swings higher.

The crop this year in Madagascar is expected to return to normal yields, meaning that prices will probably go down when the fresh harvest gets to the market in late fall. For now, you should shop for vanilla extract with care and hope that prices drop before holiday baking begins.
