Like it or not, Colin Kaepernick doesn’t have to stand for the national anthem

The latest news cycle has been dominated by an NFL quarterback. Given that the season is about to start, that’s not unusual.

What is unusual is that the attention is not for something that the quarterback is doing on the field. Well, not as a player.

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick has made waves recently by refusing to stand during the playing of the national anthem in protest of how he feels minorities are treated in this country.

His detractors want to see him punished in some way or other, saying he is un-American by sitting during “The Star-Spangled Banner.” But, he is being just about as American as he can be as he exercises his right to freedom of speech.

Sure, he could have chosen a different route to express his feelings so they would be heard, but he felt this was the way to go.

If he had quietly set up a fund to

VIEWS Rob Oesterle help minorities in need, he would have helped the cause, as well. But, as generous an offer as that would be, it seems to me that the refusal to stand for the anthem is bringing more attention to a problem he hopes to address.

He has been very forthcoming about his feelings about the situation, and far more people know about them now than if he had remained behind the scenes.

By bringing attention to himself, he has been able to voice his concerns to a wider audience.

The sticky part is there are many people who don’t care why he is refusing to stand – they feel if he refuses to stand then he must be anti-America. I don’t see it that way. He sees an area in which America can improve itself, and

LOOKING UP

he is trying to call attention to it. I don’t see how wanting to improve something is anti-anything.

For example, I love ice cream. Can’t get enough of it. But if I add some chocolate syrup and nuts and whipped cream to it in order to make a sundae, does that mean I don’t like ice cream now?

No. I saw a way to make it better and acted on it.

Personally, I think everyone should stand for the national anthem. I feel it’s a sign of respect for those that have fought and died for the freedoms we enjoy and, let’s face it, many times take for granted.

But am I going to vilify Colin Kaepernick because he thinks he can bring about a little bit of change by not standing? Not at all. He’s American. He has a right to express his opinion, whether I agree with it or not.

Glen and Beth Hill and their children, Robert and Samantha, will be the recipients of the 13th Grundy-Three Rivers Habitat for Humanity home. Construction of the home is to get underway in spring 2017.

‘A PLACE TO GO HOME TO’ Work to start in spring on the 13th home built

by Grundy-Three Rivers Habitat for Humanity

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – There is nothing that Glen and Beth Hill want more for their children, Robert and Samantha, than a house to call their own.

Thanks to Grundy-Three Rivers Habitat for Humanity, the family will break ground in the spring on their first house in Coal City as recipients of the 13th house built by the nonprofit Christian housing organization, which seeks to eliminate poverty

housing by providing simple, decent homes for families.

“Habitat is eager to partner with the Hills to build a home where Robert will have his own bedroom, and where Glen and Samantha will have increased mobility,” Executive Director Sarah Peterson said in a news release. “In addition to the financial security of having an affordable mortgage and building equity, we foresee their quality of life improving in a Habitat home.”

Glen lost his leg in a hit-and-run

accident 10 years ago while walking along Interstate 80 after running out of gas in his car. Samantha, 14, has had several surgeries to correct her scoliosis, with another surgery scheduled soon.

Glen said he never considered having a home with a more-accessible bathroom to provide a safer environment when showering. He’s always just lived like everyone else in the rental homes they’ve had.

Glen and Beth have been married for 19 years, and have been togeth-

er for 24, raising their children in Morris.

According to the news release, the Hills were chosen by Habitat for having the greatest need, as well as qualifying on the ability to repay a no-interest mortgage and their willingness to partner with Habitat.

The family currently lives in a two-bedroom home on Route 47 in Morris, where the walls and windows rattle with each passing semi, and the

Jalopy Fest to park itself in Morris

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – When most people hear the word “jalopy,” they picture a broken-down car that barely runs. But the vehicles featured at the annual Jalopy Fest in Morris are anything but that.

The cars showcased during the festival celebrate everything America was in the 1950s and 1960s. It features 1969 or older custom cars, and 1964 and older hot rods, some that spit fire from their tailpipes.

This year marks the second year the event will be held on a Friday night and all day Saturday to better accommodate those who want to attend. In addition to the vehicles, Jalopy Fest features a Pin Up Contest and rockabilly music.

Event organizer Bernie Myers said it is a good time for everyone, and he hopes to see continued increase in participation.

The event starts at 5 p.m. Sept. 9 and gears up again at 9 a.m. Sept. 10 at the Grundy County Fairgrounds.

The fest attracts many who dress for

The festival will offer a swap meet and era-appropriate vendors where visitors can buy anything from headlights and valves to 1950-era household and kitchen items.

On Sept. 10, club trophies will be awarded at 5:30 p.m., and the flame-throwing contest will start at 6:30 p.m.

According to jalopy-fest.com, the event is an all-American traditional hot rod and custom car show. A full schedule of events is available on the website.

Shining a light on solar farm contracts ‘Be careful’ is message at Illinois Farm Bureau informational meeting

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com DWIGHT – “Be careful what you sign” was the message at an informational meeting Monday night and hosted by Grundy County and Livingston County Farm Bureaus in Dwight.

Laura Harmon, senior counsel at the Illinois Farm Bureau, spoke with area farmers who have been contacted

by Cypress Creek Renewables LLC, a California-based solar company that is offering Illinois farmers cash in exchange for potential long-term use of their land.

“This [the contract presented] is all negotiable,” Harmon said. “Don’t grant ridiculously broad easements.”

More than 70 landowners from six counties – including Grundy, Livingston, LaSalle, McHenry, Kankakee and Kane – were present.

Grundy County farmers Steve Kodat said the most important thing he took away from the meeting is to contact a lawyer before signing anything because the contracts are fairly one-sided.

“I was listening to the chatter of a few farmers who had spoken with the company and heard they are not willing to negotiate,” Kodat said.

Heidi Litchfield – hlitchfield@shawmedia.com

Laura Harmon, Illinois Farm Bureau senior counsel, tells farmers gathered Monday evening in Dwight what to look out for on contracts being sent out by proposed solar farms.

Kodat received a contract from Cypress Creek Renewables LLC and said he can understand why some farmers may feel a steady income option would work for them, but that after hearing Harmon speak, there are more questions to be considered.

Harmon covered several paragraphs in the agreement and pointed out where she felt there were issues.

One issue she said is with the provision that states the farmer won’t inter-

fere or obstruct the sun from reaching the solar panels.

She questioned whether dust or aerial application of chemicals, which are common on area farms, would be considered interfering with the sunlight.

“If they decide your home is blocking light, you have to take it down,” she said. “There is no compensation for that written into the agreement.”

She said another issue with the

agreement is that it gives consent, not only to the property in question, but also to all adjacent property owned by the farmer or “in the vicinity.” She questioned what “vicinity” means.

Feet? Miles?

She said farmers also need to avoid granting perpetual easements or leases, stating that things now are different from how they were five years ago, and in five years they will be different again.

“Terms can be so one-sided the company may unilaterally extend the time period. You need to make sure there is an end date,” Harmon said. “Avoid automatic renewal.”

Kodat said he felt Harmon’s information was valuable to landowners considering signing a lease.

Cypress Creek Renewables LLC formed in 2014 and describes itself as “the largest and fastest-growing dedicated provider of local solar farms.”

The company has raised more than $1 billion, according to its website.

In December, Congress passed a five-year extension of the tax credit for solar and wind projects. The extension allows a tax credit of 30 percent of the value of solar projects.

Emails sent Tuesday to Cypress Creek Renewables LLC were not immediately returned.

When it rains, it pours: Record-setting rainfalls have Grundy County farmers watching their fields

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – With the wettest July on record and second-wettest combined July and August on record, Grundy County farmers are watching their crops.

“I’m amazed at how green, especially the corn, plants are as we are ending August,” said Russ Higgins, an extension educator in crop sciences with University of Illinois Extension.

That same moisture is what Dwight farmer Matt Boucher credits with saving corn yields in area farms.

“The field corn was slightly drier than normal in the kernel,” Boucher said. “The rain saved us.”

There can be too much of a good thing, however, and some areas are showing Goss’ wilt and northern leaf blight, which can be attributed partly to the wet weather.

Boucher said the late onset of the infections should not affect corn yields by very much this year.

While the corn was enjoying the rain, some soybean fields might have benefited from a little less rain.

“Beans don’t like wet feet,” Boucher said.

Higgins confirmed that although soybeans need rain, they probably didn’t need 10 inches in a short period, such as what some areas in southern Grundy County recently saw.

“Those fields with tiles or good drainage won’t be affected as bad,” Higgins said. “But in some places, the plant has gotten so large that sunlight can’t get to the beans on the bottom, and the yield can be affected.”

The higher-than-average amounts of rain also are favorable for conditions such as sudden death syndrome in soybeans, which is starting to show in some fields. SDS is a fungal disease

“A farmer can’t afford to have an average corn crop right now.”

Matt Boucher Dwight farmer

caused by Fusarium virguliforme.

Although the infection typically occurs early in the growing season, the symptoms start appearing in midsummer and currently are visible on some crops in Grundy County. The appearance of symptoms often is associated with weather patterns of cooler temperatures and high rainfall during flowering or pod fill, according to Pioneer’s website.

“SDS is a bad thing, but it’s not going to wreck the field at this point,” Boucher said. “The problem with that is it chokes the plant out; and once you see it on the plant, the dam-

age is done.”

He said that in some fields, it might take away the potential for top yields, but he doesn’t expect area farmers to be too negatively affected by it.

Soybean prices haven’t experienced the same declines as corn prices, so any yield loss will hurt those farmers who have cornfields.

“A farmer can’t afford to have an average corn crop right now,” Boucher said. “Corn prices are over $3 per bushel under where they were three years ago.”

In addition to infections in crops, the rainfall also has encouraged weed growth. Boucher said water hemp is the No. 1 weed problem countywide this year.

As fall approaches and farmers start looking to the fields to bring in their harvest, some drier days will be needed to get the equipment in and out of the fields.

Ric and Matt still reside in Minooka and work out of their own shops, Laurie said.

It has become a tradition for Nick to return home for a signing for each book he has written. In 2013, he signed copies of his first book, “Paddle Your Own Canoe: One Man’s Fundamentals for Delicious Living,” at Minooka Elementary School. In 2015, he signed copies of his second book, “Gumption: Relighting the Torch of Freedom with America’s Gutsiest Troublemakers,” at the high school.

This time, Nick, Ric and Matt each will sign copies of the book, which hits shelves Oct. 18. Laurie said it is because of Nick’s strong sense of loyalty that he returns home during each book tour.

“This is where he grew up,” Laurie said. “Our whole family is still here, except for him. He recognizes it’s a such a big part of who he is.”

Anyone interested in reserving a ticket to the book signing in Minooka can call The Book Stall at 847-446-8880.

Books can be preordered through the store or bought at the signing. The Book Stall also is hosting another signing at 7 p.m. Oct. 22 at the Music Box Theater in Chicago.

MINOOKA – Minooka native and actor Nick Offerman has written his third book.

Offerman will return 1 p.m. Oct. 23 to his hometown for a signing event at Minooka Community High School Central Campus, 301 S. Wabena Ave. The event will be hosted by the Three Rivers Public Library District and The Book Stall, a Winnetka-based independent bookstore.

Best known for his role as Ron Swanson on the NBC sitcom “Parks and Recreation,” which concluded in early 2015, Offerman continues to appear in multiple shows and movies each year. He also played Karl Weathers in Season 2 of the critically Nick acclaimed FX series Offerman “Fargo.”

When Offerman isn’t acting, he’s busy with his two other passions – woodworking and writing.

His third book will allow him to combine them both.

“Good Clean Fun: Misadventures in Sawdust at Offerman Woodshop” is a collaborative effort between Offerman and the rest of his Los Angeles-based woodshop collective. Most, if not all, members of the woodshop have written a chapter for the book, Three Rivers Public Library District Executive Director Laurie Offerman said.

Laurie, who is Nick’s sister, said her brother also has added chapters written by their father, Ric Offerman, and brother, Matt Offerman. Their fa-

Emergency food and shelter program funds available in Grundy Co. SUBMITTED REPORT MORRIS – Grundy County has been awarded federal funds under the Emergency Food and Shelter Program from the Illinois State Set-Aside funds under the Illinois Department of Human Services.

Nonprofit organizations in Grundy County that provide emergency food and shelter to area residents are able to apply for funding. Submitting an application is not a guarantee that funds will be available, according to a news release from the United Way. The Grundy County EFSP Board was charged with distributing funds appropriated by Congress to help expand the capacity of food and shelter programs in high-need areas around the country.

The Grundy County EFSP Board will determine how the funds are to be distributed among the emergency food and shelter programs run by lo-

cal service agencies in the area. The local board, which is composed of representatives of many area entities, is responsible for recommending agencies to receive the funds and any additional money available under this phase of the program, according to the news release.

Under the grant’s terms, local agencies chosen to receive funds must: • Be private, voluntary nonprofits or units of government.

• Have an accounting system.

• Practice nondiscrimination.

• Have demonstrated the capability to deliver emergency food and/or shelter programs.

• And, if they are a private voluntary organization, they must have a voluntary board.

Agencies interested in applying for the funds must call Karen Nall at the United Way of Grundy County at 815942-4430 or email Info@UWGrundy.org

ing out to compete was just a fun thing to do as part of the Morris community.

Jeff Brown, who was throwing bags against Thompson’s team, said he has been playing bags since he was 7 and that he was excited to come back to Morris – where he grew up – from Plainfield, where he currently lives, to compete. It was the first competition he had entered in more than two years.

Stewart said 19 teams registered Saturday and competed.

The first-place winners – who each received $150 and a 40-inch TV – were Chris Novy and Jeff Schrieber. Second-place prizes of $75 each went to Mark Steinke and Tom Gustafson.

MORRIS – Jesse Martinez of Orland Park wasn’t familiar with Morris until he saw a Facebook post about the Morris Area YMCA bags tournament being held last weekend as part of the YMCA Fall Kickoff Festival.

That post brought him to Morris on Saturday to compete to win $150 and a 40-inch TV during the tournament.

“I go to a lot of tournaments and saw this one on Facebook,” he said. “I decided to come out and compete.”

The draw of people from areas outside of Morris was another benefit of the festival, organizer Ian Stewart said.

“It’s nice to have people not from Morris come see what we are doing,” Stewart said. “The more events we have in the community that bring in others equals more money spent locally as they stop to get something to eat and maybe shop while they are here.”

Phil and Jenny Tedford of Sugar Grove also were on hand with their 1-year-old, Canaan.

In addition to the bags tournament, the YMCA also offered face painting and carnival-type games for younger participants.

While Phil played in the bags tournament, Jenny and Canaan kept themselves busy in the family area dropping balls into buckets and throwing hoops toward pegs.

“My husband is from Morris, and he likes to do stuff here,” Jenny Tedford said. “In addition to playing in the tournament, we get to fit in a trip to Grandma’s house.”

Tim Thompson of Morris said com-

SUBMITTED BY MORRIS HOSPITAL & HEALTHCARE CENTERS MORRIS – Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers has been redesignated as a Level II perinatal care provider by the Illinois Department of Public Health.

The designation means Morris Hospital has the necessary qualifications to care for women who have the potential or likelihood for complicated or high-risk deliveries, as well as newborns who may require specialized services. This includes premature infants born as early as 32 weeks’ gestation, in addition to full-term newborns with breathing difficulties, jaundice or other medical conditions that require an intermediate level of care, according to a news release from the hospital.

“Essentially, this designation allows us to take care of moms and babies who need a higher level of care,” Theresa Reece, manager of the Family Birthing Suites at Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers, said in the news release. “Even when a baby has to be transferred to a Level III perinatal facility, the baby may be able to return to us sooner because of our Level II designation.”

As a Level II perinatal care provider, Morris Hospital is required to have a perinatal affiliation agreement with a state designated Level III regional perinatal center. Morris Hospital’s agreement is with Loyola University Medical Center, whose experts pro-

vide continuing education, support, consultation and evaluation.

During a recent site visit to the hospital, a surveyor from IDPH focused on Morris Hospital’s availability of resources, including laboratory, radiology and ultrasound, social services, respiratory care, lactation services, anesthesiology, obstetricians, pediatricians and dietitians. Representatives from Morris Hospital and Loyola University Medical Center participated in the survey, along with Dr. Douglas Toussaint, chairman of the Department of Obstetrics/Gynecology at Morris Hospital, Dr. Dana Howd, chairman of the Department of Pediatrics, and Dr. Rita Hart, medical director of the nursery.

“The IDPH surveyor was particularly impressed with our recent 100 Top Hospitals designation and our nine consecutive A ratings on the Hospital Safety Score, as well as our competency training for our obstetrical staff,” Reece said in the release.

Morris Hospital first received Level II perinatal designation in 2003. The registered nurses who staff the Family Birthing Suites and Intermediate Care Nursery at Morris Hospital are certified in neonatal resuscitation procedures and stabilization of highrisk premature infants, in addition to having specialized training in electronic fetal monitoring. There are six obstetrician/gynecologists and eight pediatricians on the Morris Hospital medical staff.

New school zone speed signs are installed in Channahon SUBMITTED REPORT

CHANNAHON – The Channahon Police Department, in cooperation with Channahon School District 17, has installed four new school zone speed signs.

The new, flashing signs were installed on Sioux Drive in front of the Channahon Junior High and on Ford Road in front of Three Rivers School. All signs operate every school day from 7:15 to 8:15 a.m. and 2:15 to 3:15 p.m., according to a police department news release.

Last school year, Officer Ed Bischoff began researching how to make the school zones safer for students while increasing the awareness of the motorists traveling through the zones.

Bischoff worked closely with District 17 administrators, and they created a

plan to install the new signs within the approved budget.

The new signs will better warn drivers of the school zone through the use of flashing LED lights. The new signs replaced an older and sometimes misunderstood type of sign that could confuse motorists as to when the speed reductions were to be obeyed. With the installation of the new flashing signs, there should be no question as to when a driver is required to reduce speed and watch for children.

The signs were bought locally and installed by the village of Channahon Public Works Department.

“This cooperative effort, initiated

by Bischoff, is just another reason why Channahon has remained one of the safest cities in Illinois,” the police department said in the news release.

It may not be an emergency, but sometimes you want medical attention - FAST! 3 Immediate Care locations: Morris: Diagnostic & Rehabilitative Center 100 W.

Really?

Did you know that of cancers affecting both men and women, colorectal cancer is the second leading cancer killer? But this is one cancer you can prevent.

Screening tests help find polyps so they can be removed before they turn into cancer.

So, if you’re 50 or older, do everything you can to prevent colorectal cancer. Screening really does save lives!

Lisbon Labor Day celebration planned Annual festivities set to highlight holiday weekend

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com LISBON – Lisbon is preparing to kick off its annual Labor Day Festivities and has named Bob and Sharon Friestad as grand marshals of the 2016 parade.

After the couple graduated from Ottawa High School, Bob worked for a time at Ottawa Silica and milked cows and farmed a little, according to a news release from event organizers.

In 1957, the couple moved to the Lisbon area on a farm in Central, where they have remained.

They have been married 61 years, and this past spring, Bob planted his 60th crop on the same farm. They are the proud parents of five children who remain in the Lisbon and Newark area. They also have 21 grandchildren, and 30 great-grandchildren.

The parade is scheduled to begin at 10 a.m. Sept. 5 after the judging at 9 a.m.

In addition to the annual parade, activities will be ongoing all day around the village.

At the Lisbon Grade School yard, the public is invited to see Strawberri the Clown, who will be painting faces, as well as participate in kids activities and see who brought their tractor for the 12th annual tractor show.

Pork chops and chicken dinners will be served at the grade school from

Emergency alert system OK’d for Minooka residents

By KRIS STADALSKY

Shaw Media correspondent MINOOKA – Minooka trustees approved a contract last week for an emergency notification system to make sure all residents are contracted with emergency and nonemergency information.

Swift Reach was approved by all trustees in attendance at the Aug. 23 meeting, at an annual cost of $2,485, plus a $250 data setup fee. Trustee Rudy Martin was absent.

In June, the village was under a boil order after E. coli and total coliform bacteria were found in samples of the village water supply.

The contamination was linked to one isolated fixture, and steps were taken to remedy the situation, Public Works Director Ryan Anderson said.

The boil order was lifted two days later.

Calls and emails went out to residents and businesses, and village staff sent out news releases to the media as soon as the order went into effect.

Village Administrator Dan Duffy said officials were concerned about all residents getting the information in a timely manner.

The new emergency alert system

“We hope, with this new system, people will get immediate notification.”

Dan Duffy

Minooka village administrator will send out voice-recorded phone calls to land lines or cellphones, texts, and post the information to the village’s website, Facebook page and Twitter account.

“We hope, with this new system, people will get immediate notification,” Duffy said.

Residents will have to sign up with the village to update contact information. Instructions will be included in the village’s newsletter, which went out last week, Duffy said.

The board waived competitive bidding, and D.E. Thompson was hired to complete the emergency repairs, which were done within a few days.

Some finishing work still was being completed.

Trustees: Will state pay MFT?

Trustees awarded the 2016 motor fuel tax maintenance program to D Construction, despite the fact that they aren’t certain the state will come through with the money because of the ongoing state budget crisis.

many MFT funds can be spent in a specified period, which is how the surplus was built up, Harrington said.

Nonprofits can solicit donations

Village officials have come up with a compromise allowing nonprofits a place to solicit donations from vehicles.

Although the organizations prefer to be on Ridge Road and Mondamin Street, where traffic is the heaviest – earning them more in donations – trustees agreed to allow vehicle solicitation on the corner of Wabena Avenue and McEvilly Road.

Trustee Terry Houchens has long voted against using Minooka’s busiest intersection for fundraising, fearing for the safety of solicitors and drivers. In February, Houchens finally got enough votes from the other trustees to vote down the practice.

With the change of intersections, Houchens said, he finally is able to vote in favor of allowing solicitation of vehicles. All the other trustees present voted in favor of the new terms as well.

“We worked with the organizations to move them to this intersection, which is much safer,” Minooka Mayor Pat Brennan said. “We will see how it goes from there.”

Teamsters Local 179 says it will address districts’ ‘bad faith’ in negotiations

trict stated in the email.

Tom Flynn, Teamsters Local 179 president, directed Shaw Media to the union’s website when asked last week for comment.

Teamsters Local 179 already has filed an unfair labor practice charge with the Illinois Educational Labor Relations Board against District 201, which Monn has said was baseless.

Union officials said their issue is the

district’s solicitation of teachers and teacher’s aides to transport students with special needs with district vehicles. Monn has said that when an employee is absent from work, the district will bring in a qualified substitute.

During the past week, Districts 201 and 111 have been working together to provide bus transportation and adjusting school schedules because of the strike.

MINOOKA – Teamsters Local 179 met with Minooka school district officials last week, but it appears the union may take legal action against the area’s districts.

Union Minooka bus drivers and aides went on strike Aug. 18 over disputes with Districts 111 and 201 on their first contract. The parties met Aug. 24 to continue negotiations.

However, after meeting last week with the federal mediator, Teamsters Local 179 posted on its website that it has “become patently clear that the districts have no intention of reaching any kind of agreement for the bus drivers, let alone a fair agreement. District management has engaged in classic bad-faith bargaining tactics designed to avoid an agreement rather than reach an agreement.”

The union has proposed using an arbitrator to resolve the differences.

Union officials also stated “the Teamsters are suspending the strike and directing their supporters to return to work immediately, pending the outcome of the legal process and/or when a

resumption of the strike is necessary.”

“The union will be addressing the districts’ bad faith in the proper legal forum,” the union stated on its website.

District 201 Superintendent Kris Monn said the negotiating teams exchanged proposals and were engaged in bargaining last week. They agreed to meet again Sept. 9.

He said district officials didn’t get any indication from the mediators involved that tensions were high and were surprised by the union’s online statement.

Even with the strike suspended, because of the threat of it, Monn said, District 201 was going to end last week on a strike schedule.

An email sent Monday morning

by District 111 noted that the school would be back to regular start and end times as the strike had been suspended. The bell schedule is to be adjusted accordingly if the strike resumes.

“While the district’s request to the Teamsters this morning for advance notice of a future strike has not yet been responded to, we are hopeful they will provide advance notice of resuming their strike so that we can limit any potential impact on families,” the dis-

The spectators loved that most of the animals were available to touch. Fiveyear-old Layne Taylor of Minooka also

had the boa placed around his neck and was all smiles as he said, “Oh shoot, it’s squeezing me!”

Addison Kerley, 8, of Joliet said she liked to see and touch many animals that she had never heard of before the show.

“The guinea pig felt weird because of the hair was chewed up by the babies, and the lizard kind of felt like the snake, scaly and cold,” Kerley said. “I also learned that the tortoise can feel the lightest touch on his shell.”

As the show ended, Schilling brought out her friend Charlotte, the hairy tarantula. Most kids screamed and backed away, but a few were brave and gently gave Charlotte a pat.

The animal shows normally end with a flashlight walk through the trees, but due to heavy rains, Vaira felt that the trails were too muddy and unsafe for the participants. However, four deer made an appearance near the amphitheatre, which captivated an audience of all ages.

CHANNAHON – Scott Kordonowy decided to bring his two girls to Community Park in Channahon on Saturday to see some exotic animals.

The next thing the Shorewood resident knew, he and his girls, Elle Kordonowy, 4, and Ruby Dewhirst, 3, became part of the show.

The three had a large Dumerils ground boa draped around their shoulders and were put on display.

“We were very excited to come out.

We’ve been to a couple animal shows where you just look, so it’s pretty neat that we get to touch the animals,” Scott said.

Under a canopy of trees more than 150 babies, children and adults sat on the amphitheater grounds of Community Park in Channahon for the annual “It’s a Jungle” event hosted by the Channahon Park District and the Three Rivers Public Library District.

Park district program director Nicole Vaira said that although they have done this similar event for the past five years, organizers always bring a new presenter to keep it fresh.

“This event is unique to the area because it is local, free and the families get to be outside, and connect with the animals outdoors in a natural environment,” Vaira said.

Once the little ones settled down, presenter Kim Schilling from Animals for Awareness in Palos Park began her show. Schilling had a host of animals from domestic skunks, a hedgehog, a kinkajou and a coatimundi – South American animals from the raccoon family – an African sulcata tortoise, a double yellow-headed Amazon parrot, iguanas, a tarantula and a Peruvian guinea pig.

Schilling said most of her pets were rescue pets and do not make good domestic pets, but have been brought over

Signs of the times

Morris resident opens Wine & Pine Studio, where students create custom signs for their home

HEIDI LITCHFIELD

Kristin Seidel stands at her new business, Wine & Pine Studio, where friends can gather, bring a drink and create custom wood signs to decorate their home.

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MORRIS – Kristin Seidel knew she didn’t want to go back to work full time after being a stay-at-home mom for a year and a half.

She combined that with her love of crafts and created a business that would fit her needs and her interests.

“I asked myself what I wanted to do,” she said from her new business, Wine & Pine Studio, in downtown Morris. “I had been to painting parties in Naperville and knew there was nothing like that in Morris.”

From that thought, she decided to offer a class each Friday and Saturday night where students would create their own custom sign using paint and wood.

She said she never had hung any of the paintings she created at the parties she went to.

So when deciding what to offer, she wanted everyone to go home with something they’d be proud to hang in their home.

“Everyone can do something different,” she said. “If you don’t see a design

Heidi Litchfield – hlitchfield@ shawmedia.com

you like on our website, we can create a custom design for you.”

The class, which takes about three hours, offers students a chance to customize a piece with a last name, a choice of six different colors of stain, or a saying that means something to the artist.

The design is made ahead of time for each student, so registration needs to

be done a few days in advance of each class, or up to a week for a custom creation.

The class can be offered to 20 people at a time, and everyone is able to bring his or her own bottle, whether it be wine, beer or another favorite beverage.

Seidel said that for private events, students even have brought in snacks

More online For a complete list of classes and registration information, visit wineandpinestudio. com. to share.

Classes aren’t just for adults drinking adult beverages, however. Seidel said she hopes the name doesn’t keep people away.

“I hope to host classes for Boy Scouts or Girl Scout troops, as well as Mommy and Me classes where they learn to sand and assemble their sign as well as stain and paint it,” she said.

“It’s a lot of fun.”

Seidel said the No. 1 question she gets is “How hard is it?” She said that after asking students as they finish up class how hard it was, 99 percent of attendees thought it was easier than they expected.

The class costs $60 a person regardless of the size of sign they choose from the wall of examples; students also can choose a wine or beer carrier to personalize.

Sept. golf outing marks my first year with Chamber CHANNAHON – Last year’s Channahon Minooka Chamber Golf Outing was not only my first as the new executive director of the Chamber, it also was only my third day on the job.

So as we prep for this year’s golf outing Sept. 16, I am reflecting on my first full year with the Grundy County Chamber of Commerce & Industry (the Channahon Minooka Chamber is a division of the Grundy Chamber).

This time last year, I might have been new to working for the Chamber, but I was no stranger to it. As a former newspaper editor and reporter in the community, I regularly used my Chamber benefits by attending networking and luncheon events, using it as a resource for article contacts, as well as volunteering at Chamber functions to keep my name and face in the public eye.

What I have learned as an official staffer with the Chamber is not only the amount of work Chamber staff

VIEWS Christina Van Yperen and members put in to provide these events to the community, but also how far each member’s investment really goes.

When I say investment, I don’t just mean your Chamber dues and sponsorship dollars, but your time and effort as well. It’s important to remember that, as with any investment, you get what you put in. If you join because you want your company listed on our website’s business directory for its 60,000 monthly hits – we’re happy to provide it.

But remember the handshake and face-to-face contact with a potential customer you meet at Business After Hours might just be what wins you their business over a competitor.

As I’m writing this column, I just returned from a Coffee & Company event we held with Comprehensive Pain and Wellness in Morris. While talking about her company, chiropractor Kelly Lesemann gave a shout-out to a local web design firm for its new website – and that business owner then met two potential customers. All because he showed up for coffee and networking for an hour on a Tuesday morning.

We know you can’t attend every Business After Hours or luncheon, but even one event can go a long way for your business or organization.

The Channahon Minooka Chamber Golf Outing on Sept. 16 at Heritage Bluffs Public Golf Club could be that event. Come on out, celebrate my one-year anniversary with me and do some networking. Join a foursome for a round of golf and learn about another business in the area; sponsor an exclusive hole and get to talk with every golfer about your company; and

if you cannot attend, sponsor a hole or put an item in the gift bag so the golfers will recognize your business when they see your location next or meet you at a future event.

Don’t forget to wear your favorite sports team gear and participate in this year’s sports theme!

This year’s golf outing is presented

by D’Arcy Chevrolet Buick Cadillac and Heartland Bank. A special thankyou as well to lunch sponsors Morris Hospital & Healthcare Centers, Davidson Farms, Exclusive Hole Sponsor NuMark Credit Union and Registration Sponsor Republic Services of Joliet.

For information on Chamber memberships or on the golf outing call 815-942-0113, email events@grundychamber.com or visit grundychamber. com.

OPINIONS

Gov. Bruce Rauner said last week that he never has spoken with Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel or any legislators about a much-anticipated proposal to toughen penalties for gun crimes.

“I’ve not discussed that issue with the mayor myself,” he said, adding, “Frankly, I’m talking with legislators all the time.

They have not brought that issue up with me.”

Rauner was referring to legislation currently being drafted by state Sen. Kwame Raoul, D-Chicago, and state Rep. Mike Zalewski, D-Riverside, to increase penalties for people who are busted with guns but aren’t legally authorized to possess them because of, for instance, prior felony convictions.

Emanuel and his various police chiefs have demanded such a law for years because far too many violent criminals are getting out of prison too quickly and are then committing more crimes. But a push to pass a bill stalled out a couple of years ago after members of the Legislative Black Caucus demanded that the General Assembly first roll back some other legal punishments.

Every year, legislators jack up penalties for crimes, often because their local news outlets make a big deal about a local criminal act. And every year, more people who could be living productive lives are instead trapped even longer in the criminal justice system. The pendulum had simply moved too far in one direction, and African-American legislators wanted to push it back the other way. Not to mention that the original enhanced penalty bill would have cost the state millions of dollars it didn’t have.

Rauner came into office promising to reduce the state’s prison population by 25 percent, so his goal dovetailed nicely with Black Caucus demands for reduced punishments on nonviolent offenses.

But with gun violence spiking way up in Chicago, why isn’t Rauner working with legislators and the mayor to find a solution?

Raoul and Zalewski both confirmed that they hadn’t spoken with Rauner about their proposal.

“Technically, he is right,” Raoul said about the governor’s statement. But, Raoul said, “I insisted that the Chicago Police Department keep [the governor’s] public safety director apprised, and they/we have. We have not drafted the legislation yet, so there have not been multiple meetings, but his director of public safety did receive a briefing

THE FIRST

AMENDMENT

VIEWS Rich Miller on the concept a couple of months ago.”

Other legislators said privately that there was no need to bring Rauner directly into the talks yet because no legislative language has emerged. They’re still working out the finer points with stakeholders, including the National Rifle Association, which is supportive in general, but reportedly has some issues with some minor details – for instance, making sure medical marijuana patients are exempted from any enhanced gun penalties.

Zalewski said that while he hadn’t yet spoken directly to Rauner, he believes passing such a law “makes sense” in the context of the governor’s advocacy for criminal justice reforms.

Rauner, Zalewski said, will need to give legislators political cover for passing the bills necessary to meet his goal of lowering the prison population by a quarter. There is a real fear by some legislators of being tagged as “soft on crime,” so upping penalties on bad guys could balance out votes for reducing penalties for others.

Still others said the governor’s claims that he talks with legislators “all the time” don’t quite provide the complete picture.

“He ‘calls’ occasionally,” one legislator said. “But then he just talks. There’s no back and forth. He just talks. And then he says, ‘Look forward to talking again’ and hangs up. That’s not talking. That’s monologuing.”

Anyway, last week Rauner held a Chicago news conference with some of the most liberal Democratic members of the House and Senate to sign a large pile of criminal justice reform bills into law.

In the past, it seemed as if Rauner didn’t want to needlessly alienate his conservative Republican base by too publicly attaching himself to that sort of legislation. But with a general election coming up, Rauner appears to be attaching himself to issues that independents and Democrats prefer.

Hopefully soon, the governor can help craft a final agreement to address the other side of this criminal justice coin. The hard reality is some people just need to be locked behind bars for longer than they are now.

NEIGHBORS Positive relationships still key to successful learning How to submit: Neighbors features community news, including events. Submissions can be emailed to news@morrisherald-news.com. High resolution photos can be sent as attachments to an email. Send by noon Monday the week of an event for it to be included in that week's listings.

Teddy Roosevelt said: “No one cares how much you know, until they know how much you care.” This quote has stuck with me since the start of my career in education.

The beginning of a new school year sparks renewed energy for me even after 32 years. My focus recently has centered on the tremendous differences between “when I was a new teacher” and the vast changes that have taken place during the past three decades. What I learned while writing this article may surprise some of you, but it reaffirmed what I already knew: The ability to develop positive relationships is the key to becoming an effective educator.

In November 1984, I received a call from Coal City Junior High Principal Jack Micetich that changed my life. I was completing my student-teaching requirement at Herscher High School under the excellent guidance of Mr. Ken Guest. Mr. Micetich asked me if I would fill a spring maternity leave for language arts teacher Carol Crawford.

I gladly accepted the challenge of teaching the “Motley Crue,” and my career was underway.

After one year at Gardner South-Wilmington High School, I taught social studies and the “I Can” class at Coal City High School for seven years and quickly learned the

COMMUNITY PULSE Patrick Halloran importance of building positive relationships. I had the privilege of working with some awesome teachers and administrators who have had a profound impact on me personally and professionally.

I tell past students those were the “golden years” and resulted in some of my best memories of a very fortunate career. I still enjoy the occasional “Hey, Coach Hal” I get at the store or from the parents of students who attend MCHS. I learned quickly that while delivering content was critical, challenging students to do their best, helping them set goals and modeling the importance of a positive attitude were my real callings as an educator.

Most teachers, but particularly new teachers, are faced with changes and challenges I never dreamed of as a teacher in the ’80s and early ’90s. Mandates and technology are two areas that rise to the top.

The excessive number of acronyms in education illustrate the story of mandates: IEP, SLO, RTI, PARCC, ACT, SAT, PERA, etc., represent an

alphabet soup of jargon. Teachers also have to complete between 10 to 20 mandated trainings dealing with topics from food allergies, teen dating violence and blood-borne pathogens to mental illness and suicide. My only real challenge was surviving the 1985 Illinois Learning Objectives (thanks to Sharon Bunton) and the “IGAP police.”

Teachers have to be able to handle the use, implementation and changing face of technology at a very rapid pace. Google classroom, Powerschool, Schoology, Twitter, Facebook, Remind 101, Schoolnet, smart boards, and cellphones are all part of most teachers daily routines. Communicating home about grades and behavior is nearly in “real time” in many instances.

The extent of my technology training was passing the EIU practicum on threading a filmstrip projector, using an overhead projector and the effective use of a mimeograph machine.

Grades were mailed home quarterly, and if a parent had a question, they called the main office. Wow – how times have changed!

MCHS has three new teachers this year: Ashley Vicich, Stacy Dillard and Michael Muntz. They have 15 years of combined experience before joining our staff. I interviewed each of them for this article and asked this question: “What are you most concerned

with as you start your new job?” They all talked about the same thing: forming new relationships! I was surprised and encouraged. I assumed it would be technology, rules or curriculum. All three discussed establishing positive relationships with students, peers and parents.

Through all the “clutter” that surrounds a new year, our newest staff members seem to be in tune with the importance of building positive relationships in order to have success in the classroom.

Based on our most recent 5Essentials survey results, the majority of students trust our faculty and believe they have the students’ best interests in mind. This is one indicator that our faculty as a whole understands the value of positive relationships. Through all the years of change, the value of a caring adult in the classroom still is a vital component of a successful school.

I think “Rough Rider” T.R. said it best!

Cops and Rodders Car Show benefits Special Olympics

By HEIDI LITCHFIELD

hlitchfield@shawmedia.com MINOOKA – Connor Davis of Channahon thought he was just going to grab dinner with his family Thursday night – but before he knew it, the 9-year-old was in the driver’s seat of a Rockdale Police Department utility task vehicle.

And although he thought the police vehicles at the Cops and Rodders car show in Minooka were cool, it was a green Camaro that really caught his eye.

“The green one looks cool, with the black on it,” he said when asked what was his favorite car at the show.

Minooka Community Policing Director Denis Tatgenhorst said he was grateful the rain held off the night of Aug. 25, as the parking lot in front of Ace Hardware on Ridge Road filled up with classic cars and police vehicles from around the area.

A Dodge race car presented by Minooka police captured a lot of attention.

paired.

Ann Johnson of Joliet said she never had seen a police vehicle like the Dodge and thought it was a great way to get the message out to the public, or at least get people talking about the subject of DUI. Tatgenhorst said Monday that 44 vehicles appeared, counting the police vehicles, raising nearly $1,400 for Special Olympics of Illinois.

“Overall, it went well,” he said. “I think the chance of rain kept some cars home; but overall, it was a good night.”

In addition to the car show, there was a raffle, and a pet adoption station.

Best DARE car went to the Romeoville Police Department; Best Chevy went to the Manhattan Police Department; Best Ford went to the Lemont Heidi Litchfield – hlitchfield@shawmedia.com Police Department; and Best ATV/MoRockdale police officer Tim Harris checks out an Oldsmobile 442 at the Cops and Rodders torcycle went to Rockdale for its UTV. car show Thursday night in Minooka.

SUBMITTED REPORT JOLIET – On July 6 and July 27, First Midwest Bank of Morris sponsored outings for Illinois Valley Industries clients to attend Joliet Slammers games. Fifty-two individuals were able to attend and enjoyed an indoor box, snacks and fun day as part of America’s pastime.

The July 7 group saw the Slammers take on the Washington Wild Things, who defeated the Slammers, 5-3. The July 27 group, however, got to see the Slammers take home the win with a victory over the Evansville Otters.

“We were so happy to be able to provide this outing for the folks at IVI,” Tom Tesdal, president of First Midwest Bank of Morris, said in a news release. “Giving back to the community

is just part of the First Midwest Bank philosophy. We love seeing how much fun the clients had and to know we helped make such an excursion possible is a real win-win for us all … even when the home team isn’t victorious!”

IVI Executive Director Kandis Cassetto said it is part of the mission at IVI to help clients lead full and rewarding lives.

“We so appreciate the support of wonderful organizations like First Midwest Bank of Morris who make it their mission to help us realize ours!”

Cassetto said in the news release.

“Our clients had a day that they will remember for many years to come thanks to the luxury of the indoor seating and great food. We can’t thank all the folks at First Midwest Bank of Morris enough.”

Local man graduates from U.S. Air Force basic training SUBMITTED REPORT U.S. Air Force Airman Tyler D. Hoard graduated from basic military training at Joint Base San Antonio-Lackland, San Antonio, Texas.

The airman completed an in-

tensive, eight-week program that included training in military discipline and studies, Air Force core values, physical fitness and basic warfare principles and skills.

Airmen who complete basic training also earn four credits toward an

associate in applied science degree through the Community College of the Air Force.

Hoard is the son of Erin and Larry Kauffman of Seneca. He is a 2016 graduate of Serena High School in Serena.

MORRIS – Verona resident Bryce Bedeker, 15, was honored recently by being one of five state winners in the swine division for the Superior Young Producer Award Program held at the Illinois State Fair Junior Livestock Shows.

“This contest provides youth an opportunity to showcase their knowledge of the industry while competing for valuable scholarships to help them pursue their career goals,” Dan Jennings, University of Illinois Extension 4-H animal science educator, said in a news release.

Bedeker, son of Darren and Jean Bedeker, belongs to the Highland Ag 4-H Club and has been in 4-H for eight years.

He had to compete in three challenging phases of the competition, which is in its 21st year. The first phase was a swine management test relating to nutrition, health, reproduction, marketing and other swine information. The second phase was a skill-a-thon and led into the third-phase swine judging contest.

The Superior Young Producer Award Program rewards 4-H and Future Farmers of America members who excel in their knowledge of the livestock industry in five specific species, including beef, dairy, horse, sheep and swine. Five winners were selected in the swine division, which challenged the young people’s knowledge of swine production.

For information on 4-H, call the Grundy County Extension Office at 815942-2725.

Habitat “partner families,” as they are referred, must present a need for adequate housing and earn 30 percent to 60 percent of the area’s median income. Credit checks also are performed. Partner families contribute 400 hours of “sweat equity” toward the construction of their home and Habitat fundraising events.

The homes then are sold to the families with a no-interest mortgage, making homeownership affordable.

Mortgage payments help fund future Habitat homes.

TOUGHER TEST AHEAD Morris prepared to take on state-ranked Washington / 33

The Morris football team takes the field Friday against Chicago Austin. The Redskins will take on state-ranked Washington at home this Friday night.

FOOTBALL – MORRIS VS. WASHINGTON: 7:30 P.M. FRIDAY AT MORRIS

By ROB OESTERLE

roesterle@shawmedia.com

• Thursday, September 1, 2016

MORRIS – The numbers for the Morris football team’s offense after the season-opening 62-0 win over Chicago Austin were crazy.

For example, Michael Feeney officially touched the ball four times – once on a kickoff return, once on a punt return, once on a carry from scrimmage and once on a pass reception. Four touches, 140 total yards, two touchdowns. He had a 53-yard TD run, a 34-yard TD reception and a 52-yard kickoff return. His punt return officially was listed as going for a yard, but on the field he returned it more than 40 yards for a touchdown – however, a penalty brought it back to where he netted just one yard.

Feeney wasn’t alone in the video-game numbers department. Michael Gerischer had a grand total of four carries from scrimmage, and he had 70 yards and two touchdowns.

Delaney Stutzki caught two passes for 37 yards and a touchdown. Ricky Del Favero completed all three of his pass attempts for 70 yards and two touchdowns. Every one of Morris’ nine possessions ended in the end zone.

But that game is over. This week brings an entirely new test. The Redskins go from playing a team with 17 players on its roster to taking on the team that is ranked No. 3 in the state in Class 5A – Washington. The Redskins lost on the road to the Panthers last season, 19-13, in overtime.

It was a game that saw Morris take a 13-0 lead into the fourth quarter, only to see Washington come back and tie it in the fourth and win in overtime, helping springboard it to an 11-1 season.

“We know this is a much tougher game,” Morris coach Alan Thorson said. “Washington has become one of the better programs in the state. We’re excited to have them come up here and see how we match up against them.

“They got us in the fourth quarter and in overtime last year, but we feel like we are in better shape than we were last year. And they are coming up here, and our guys are looking forward to letting them know they are in our house now.”

Last week, Washington opened with a 48-13 drubbing of Normal U-High.

“They are a good team,” Thorson said. “They lost some skill position players from last year, but they have a lot of their guys back up front on both sides of the ball. Their linebackers, especially, look like a very fast, talented group, so we won’t have things as easy

“They are ranked as high as they are for a reason. This is a good opportunity for us to see where we are against a very good program. When we looked at our film, we saw some mistakes, but they were mistakes that we can fix, and that’s what we will be working on all week in practice.”

On offense, Washington looks to be similar to Morris, as both will use multiple ball carriers and throw the ball enough to keep the other team honest.

“They are a lot like us,” Thorson said. “No. 9 [Garrett Frank] and No. 5 [Joshua Schellenberg] will carry the ball a lot for them, and they are both good, quick backs. Their quarterback is only a sophomore, but he looks like a good athlete.

“We got out of Friday night injury-free, which is nice. And we feel like our conditioning is better than it was last year, and we have more depth than last year, so not as many guys are going to be playing on both sides of the ball. We’re just excited for Friday to get here. This is going to be a fun game.”

34 PREP FOOTBALL: SENECA

Irish go through full range of emotions in win against Dwight

By MARK JOHNSON For Shaw Media

SENECA – Although Jacob Bruce is a senior, Friday’s game against Dwight was his first as a member of the Seneca football team. Bruce had played golf previously in his high school career.

In three-plus hours, Bruce may have experienced enough highs and lows to make up for the three years he had missed. The host Fighting Irish scored all 20 of their points unanswered in the second half to shock the Trojans. Bruce contributed a twopoint conversion run early in the half, and later was part of a group of Irish defenders who stopped Dwight running back Austin Kavanaugh in the closing seconds to preserve the 20-14 win.

Those moments were a remarkable contrast to the early stages of the game. When Kavanaugh intercepted Seneca quarterback Hunter Greve early in the second quarter, the Trojans already were up, 14-0, and had the ball at Seneca’s 33-yard line. To that point in the game, the Irish had earned one first down and eight yards of total offense.

“I was getting down on myself. I didn’t think we were gonna be able to do it,” Bruce said. “Then we had that first touchdown; I felt like I was king of the world – I got that extra point down here, that lifted my night.

I busted my butt every day in practice for that.”

Logan Vandenberg’s two touchdown runs, Greve’s pass to Tyler Draine for a score and the goal-line stand were the obvious key plays in the comeback. To Irish coach Ted O’Boyle, a play that was every bit as important as those – but was likely to be overlooked – came in the first half, when everything possible, it seemed, was still going terribly for the Irish.

Dwight drove as far as the Irish 8 after the Kavanaugh interception; but on third down, Zach Stanley picked off a Justin Fox pass near the goal line. Although the Irish did not convert the turnover into points, they had the ball for the final 5:09 of the half and prevented their deficit from getting worse.

“We just couldn’t get anything going. We had some penalties, we had some bad mistakes.

Let’s be honest: With the inexperience, I knew that would happen at some point in the game. For them to fight through it … jeez, it was just an exhausting game, but I’m just so proud of our guys, I can’t even put it in words.”

Ted O’Boyle

Seneca football coach “If they go up 20, 21 [to] nothing, that’s a lot different than 14,” O’Boyle said. “When you’ve got a lot of guys on your team that don’t have a lot of varsity experience, like we do, that could’ve been a crusher for us. We made a big play – we got some heat on the quarterback, and then the Stanley kid made a nice pick for us.”

There was little to feel good about for Irish fans before to that play. Because of numbers, the Irish are not fielding a standard sophomore team; thus, there was no matinee to the varsity game. They watched Dwight come in and score on the game’s opening series and immediately recover an onside kick. Seneca’s first offensive series then was derailed by penalties, and its second by a turnover.

It would have seemed unthinkable, then, that the game – which started promptly at 7 p.m. – would end after 10 (thanks to an approximately 45-minute lightning delay) with the hosts celebrating.

“We just couldn’t get anything going. We had some penalties, we had some bad mistakes,” O’Boyle said.

“Let’s be honest: With the inexperience, I knew that would happen at some point in the game. For them to fight through it … jeez, it was just an exhausting game, but I’m just so proud of our guys, I can’t even put it in words.”

We were also able to utilize our bench, and some girls really stepped up. Our last game against Lincoln-Way Central, we knew would be tough – it’s hard to beat a good team twice in a season, let alone back-to-back days, and we knew they were not going to make the same mistakes they made the night before.

“We moved the ball around more, had long volleys, and better net play in the final game. Also, we had some girls step up their serving and got on good runs, which again gave us the momentum and ability to make a mistake without costing us. Overall, it was a great tournament where we saw a lot of good things, and found things we need to focus on. Even though we were the smallest school, I think we held our own and proved we can compete with the bigger

competition.”

LISLE – The Morris girls volleyball team got off to a rough start Friday at the Benet Invitational, but rebounded, winning its last three matches to take the top spot in the Silver Bracket in the eight-team event.

The Redskins, the only Class 3A team in an otherwise Class 4A field, lost their first two pool matches Friday, to Benet, 25-10, 25-12, and to Neuqua Valley, 25-20, 25-13. They followed that with a 25-17, 2517 win over Lincoln-Way Central.

Against Benet, Janelle Brehm, who was named to the All-Tournament team, had five kills and one dig, while Ashley Hood had 10 assists, one kill and three digs, and Corrine Day added seven digs. Brehm had a team-high six kills in the loss to Neuqua Valley to go with a dig, a block and an assist, while Hood had 12 assists and six digs. Calleen Soper chipped in with three kills and two blocks, while Jasmine Cook had three digs. In the win over Lincoln-Way Central, Brehm led the way with nine kills and six digs, while Hood had 13 assists, two aces and six digs. Soper had three kills, while Cook had four digs, three aces and an assist, and Ryan Friend added two kills.

“Going in, we knew this was going to be a tough tournament,” Morris coach Taylor Lafond said. “After losing our first two matches of the season, I tried mixing things up to try to find a new rhythm. We knew Benet was going to be a tough one to start with, but we just wanted to hang in there with them. We made some mistakes we shouldn’t have, but also made them make a couple mistakes as well. Against Neuqua, we were starting to find our groove a little bit, but not quite enough to pull out the win.

We did, however, keep the ball in play and keep the volleys going longer.

“Against Lincoln-Way Central, we knew they were beatable after watching them play previously and knowing we beat them last year. We minimized our mistakes and kept the ball alive.”

On Saturday, Morris (3-4) began Silver Bracket play with a 25-12, 25-9 win over Oak Park River Forest as Brehm had six kills, two aces and three digs.

Hood had 15 assists and five digs, while Soper and Friend each had two kills.

Paige Valentine served three aces, while Abby Bruyn had two aces, two digs and a kill. The Redskins finished off the weekend by winning the Silver Bracket title match, 25-21,18-25, 25-18, over Lincoln-Way Central. Brehm had a big

36 BOYS SOCCER: WAR ON 34 TOURNAMENT

VanOudt leads Morris soccer to title

By STAFF REPORTS

EARLVILLE – Comebacks, overtimes, penalty kicks.

That was the formula for the Morris boys soccer team over the weekend at the War on 34 Tournament, and it worked to the tune of a tourney championship.

The Redskins (3-0-0) defeated Earlville, 3-2, Saturday to take the title after beating Dixon, 2-1, on Friday night.

In the first half Saturday, Earlville scored in the final 5 minutes to take a 1-0 lead into halftime. Morris rallied in the second half, as junior Conner Shaw assisted senior Josh Lain for a goal on a header with 25 minutes left.

The Redskins kept pushing and, five minutes later, Connor McGlynn gave a through ball to Shaw, who dribbled through two players and put the ball in the net. Earlville then scored with 14 minutes remaining to tie the game.

Neither team scored again in regulation, or in either of the 10-minute overtime periods, sending the game to penalty kicks.

Earlville shot first, and Morris junior goalkeeper Mac VanOudt made

a save going the other direction with his foot. Morris’ Shaw then made his shot. VanOudt stopped another Earlville attempt before Morris’ Skyler Wills made his shot for a 2-0 Morris lead.

Earlville then made a shot, and Morris’ Christian Vasquez missed, cutting the Redskins lead to 2-1. Another Earlville goal made it 2-2, and Alex Randall made his shot to make it 3-2 in Morris’ favor. Earlville’s final shot went to the left, and VanOudt moved to his right to block it before the Morris team ran onto the field to celebrate.

VanOudt was named player of the game with 20 saves.

“My guys were tired from Friday night’s game and came out flat,” Morris coach David Valdivia said.

“Earlville is a different program, and had some really good players this year. This was a tough win, but that’s exactly what we needed. In this game, Mac VanOudt made one in particular where he hit it over the post with his hand going backwards.”

Morris 2, Dixon 1: In the semifinals Friday, Dixon scored in the first 10 minutes to take a 1-0 lead.

The Redskins tied it 15 minutes later when Shaw dribbled through five defenders and scored. The first half ended in a 1-all tie. Both teams had scoring opportunities in the second half, but neither took advantage. After two scoreless 10-minute overtime periods, the game went to penalty kicks.

Dixon shot first and made its goal before Morris senior Matt Samolis’ shot was blocked. Dixon made its second shot, and Skyler Wills made his shot for Morris. After Dixon’s next shot went over the goal, Christian Vasquez made his shot to tie the shootout at 2-all. Another Dixon shot went over the net, and junior Alex Randall made his shot for Morris.

Dixon’s final attempt to tie it went over the goal, and Morris took the win.

“The best part was when the other team missed, the whole team ran jumped on Mac VanOudt, our keeper, who had 14 saves and let only one goal in,” Valdivia said. “Dixon was a very competitive team. They played better the second half, and we played better the first half after the first 10 minutes.”

INTO THE OUTDOORS Steve Rogers series pros, Matt and Jordan Lee, are examples of what can happen when young talent is given the opportunity to compete at an early age. The brothers went to college at Auburn University and participated on the college team. They went on to win the college championship and qualified for the coveted Bassmaster Classic.

These two youngsters, both in their 20s, not only have proved they have what it takes at the college level, they now also fish the Bassmaster Elite series against some of the best anglers in the world. The fact that high schools and colleges now are offering fishing teams is something I never saw coming 20 years ago.

I wish these teams were around when I went through school. It gives

a whole new group a students a place to participate, bring forth school pride, and attract another generation to the sport. It also stimulates the outdoors economy.

Competitive bass fishing pumps dollars into the industry at a tremendous pace. A simple aluminum flat bottom boat will catch a lot of fish, but a bass angler dreams of high-dollar boats with their sleek fiberglass and expensive gadgets decked out from bow to stern. They also buy lures by the dozens, not in singles.

Add in the proper sunglasses, tow vehicle and attire, and the amount of money dropped is insane.

This excess at first glance seems crazy, but remember, the Pittman-Robertson Act of 1938 and the Dingell-Johnson Act of 1950 placed excise taxes on sporting goods equipment. These taxes are used to fund and take care of the wild places that we cherish so much. Pumping dollars into the industry is good for everyone who enjoys the outdoors, even if they don’t hunt or fish.

As with any youth organization, adult leadership is the key to success. Most high school clubs are in dire need of willing adults to help take these kids out. Maybe you have a boat you would be willing to drive around for the kids; maybe you have some time to explain to them the finer points of structure and patterns; or maybe you just want to help them learn about the equipment. They need you.

There are lots of opportunities in our area to reach out and offer assistance to these clubs. Contact your local high school and see whether they have a team. Find out who is in charge and what type of volunteers they are looking for.

As I’ve said a million times before, it is impossible to not smile when reeling in a fish. Imagine if your volunteering provided that opportunity for a teenage boy or girl wanting to spend some time on the water.

In most places around the country, school is in full swing. With the academic year underway, kids are exploring their options. Is there a sport they want to participate in?

What about a club? Maybe band is their focal point. In recent years, a new sort of school sport has taken off. High school and college bass fishing is alive and growing.

Just last weekend, my youngest son participated in Coal City’s first practice event of the season. How awesome is that? He had to go fishing for school.

As with any activity, the lifeblood and sustainability come from new participants. The outdoor sports, more specifically fishing and hunting, have seen the number of active participants decline in recent decades. With a more urban population and the insane demand of our hectic lives, recreational time is at a premium.

High school and college bass clubs are pumping new life into the industry. Two Bassmaster Elite

PREDICTING FALL FLAVORS

Chefs discuss dining trends for the next season

By LISA ABRAHAM More Content Now

Like it or not, autumn will soon be here. Summer salads will give way to pots of chili and – dare I even say it – holiday fare.

With chefs already thinking about the upcoming season, I chatted with several to find out what they foresee.

Diners will notice a return to classic preparations, said executive chef Chad Lavely of the Granville Inn in Columbus, Ohio, who will have milk-braised pork shanks with mashed potatoes on his menu.

Food that is “comforting but elegant” will abound in the fall, he said.

“We’re looking at very simple preparations that are wholesome and very tasty.”

Jacob Hough, executive chef at Barcelona, also sees braised meats making a comeback. Plenty of seasonal foods, he said, will take center stage on the plate – including root vegetables and beans, which have ridden a wave of popularity this year.

Another trend, said chef Bill Glover of Gallerie Bar & Bistro at the Hilton Columbus Downtown, involves lamb – not just delicate chops but hearty roasts of whole legs and shoulders.

Matt Stellrecht, a chef at Hollywood Casino Columbus, predicts an ongoing focus on pork, including more novel cuts such as pork belly and cheek.

Chefs will continue to smoke their own meats, he said. In the casino kitchens, Stellrecht smokes beef brisket for 15 hours over applewood to achieve a flavor unique to his restaurant.

The use of locally grown foods, meanwhile, will thrive and expand – largely because of “the bounty of resources we have at our grasp here in Columbus,” said C. David Wolf, executive chef at the Blackwell Inn at Ohio State University. Foods as medicines, based on the nutrition they provide, represent the next step in the local food movement, he said.

Wolf, by the way, doesn’t expect “hot chicken” to maintain its status, but he has yet to discover a replacement.

As for desserts, Jessica Bryant – executive chef at Freedom a la Cart catering – is pondering autumn pies.

“Classic things with a little tweak” are what she plans: German chocolate pecan pie instead of pecan and butternut squash pie instead of the traditional pumpkin.

For gatherings, Watershed Distillery has a line of bottled cocktails

for heartier barrel-aged gin.

“Anything barrel-aged” is trending, Bain said.

For the holidays, he added, the punch bowl will come back in a big way. Gone, though, are the days of simply spiking a fruit-juice punch with vodka.

Instead, Bain said, the punch bowl becomes an oversized craft cocktail, made with carefully selected herbs, citrus and liquors. A single cocktail served in a large quantity as a punch eases party plans because the host doesn’t have to stock an entire bar, helping to keep costs in check.

that take the work out of bartending services.

“They’re ready to roll; you just pour them over ice,” said Grant Bain of the Columbus distillery.
