American Legion Post 143 will host the annual Patriotic Program.

Wean who graduated from Mt. Morris High School in the Class of 1966, is highly decorated for his bravery in combat.

He was awarded the Silver Star and two Purple Hearts for his battlefield actions as a Marine Corps medic.

He is a member of the Mt. Morris American Legion and a featured speaker for Memorial Day and Veterans Day services throughout the area.

Wean’s speech will focus on the 100th anniversary of the American Legion, founded in 1919.

Congress granted the American Legion its national charter in September of 1919, and Mt. Morris Post 143 received its charter the same month.

The annual ringing of the Official State of Illinois Freedom Bell, located on the Mt. Morris campus near the band shell, begins promptly at 1 p.m. in synchronization with other bell ringing events across the United States.

All are invited to attend the entire program, celebrate Independence Day, and join in the ringing of the famous bell 13 times, once for each of the original 13 colonies.

The Let Freedom Ring festival will begin on Wednesday, July 3 with the Little Miss and Mr. Firecracker Contest at 6 p.m. at the band shell, followed by the queen pageant and a patriotic performance by the Kable Concert Band.

BUSINESS NEWS

Oregon software company celebrates 25 years

BY VINDE WELLS vwells@oglecountynews.com An Oregon business that started as a “leap of faith” recently celebrated its 25th anniversary.

Noel Bruns left a job with a large corporation and founded his own computer software business, Ablesoft Solutions Inc., in May of 1994.

“The Internet was just being born at that time. Starting a software business in a small town at that time was kind of a leap of faith,” Bruns, 59, said.

He had worked for corporate IT at ComEd in Chicago for eight years but wanted a better life for his family and transferred to the Byron Generating Station.

He worked there for seven years before launching his own business.

Bruns credited his wife Sally, a school teacher, with being very supportive of his endeavors, both emotionally and financially.

“I can’t say enough about how supportive my wife was, probably much against her better judgment,” he said with a grin.

At the time they had four small

children.

“The real drive to start the business was to control my environment and work with the people I wanted to work with,” Bruns said.

The business, which is located at 124 S. Fourth St., develops custom software for small and large companies both local and farther away.

They offer custom business systems, word processing systems, mobile applications, web applications, and web design.

Bruns’ two sons Eric and Ben are part of the business and the three of them comprise the management team.

Eric is a programmer analyst and Ben is in sales.

“I am incredibly fortunate to work with my two sons,” Bruns said. “We enjoy working with each other.

We’ve had up and downs over the years. Since the boys have come [into the company] I can see we have a strong future.”

“We all have different things we bring to the table and different skills,” Ben said.

LFR BREAKFAST

Fly-In/Drive-In Breakfast is July 4 at airport Annual event is a fundraiser for Ogle County Airport Independence Day at Ogle County Airport starts with the pop-pop swoosh, of piston powered aircraft coming in for an all-you-can-eat Fourth of July breakfast.

The annual “Best in the Midwest” breakfast starts at 7 a.m. and runs until 11 a.m.

The breakfast includes Eichman’s tasty ham and whole hog sausage, cantaloupe, scrambled eggs, hash browns, and stacks of pancakes with blueberry and other toppings.

This feast will be served by volunteers and pilots at the Ogle County Airport for $10.

The breakfast is a fundraiser for the non-taxpayer-supported airport and attracts hundreds of small private airplanes from several states each year.

This is a wonderful opportunity to have the whole family enjoy the sights and sounds of airplanes at

the grass strip airport located on Illinois 64 between Mt. Morris and Oregon.

Each year this event brings approximately 1,000 people together to enjoy a great breakfast and to mingle with friends and those interested in aviation.

There is no charge to view the airplanes and parking is free.

Frequently, old military training planes will fly in and do fly-bys.

Some of these planes will trail white smoke as they fly-by in an old tradition of air shows. Spraying special paraffin into the manifold produces

the smoke.

The airport was recognized in 2007 by the Illinois Department of Transportation as Airport of the Year, in part, because of the many and continuing improvements.

Flight instruction, biennial reviews, tail wheel check outs, and other aviation services are available at the airport.

The airport is the home base for the Rock River Flyers flying club.

More information on organizations and hangars is available from any airport board member or by calling Doug Schiller at 815-973-3234.

Girls Camp Girls sang songs around a campfire June 20 while enjoying S’mores during Strong Girls to Women Camp.

The four-day camp at Trinity Lutheran church in Mt. Morris was a chance for girls in Grades 4-6 to learn about how to become young ladies.

The girls learned that “I Am Enough.” Some of the activities at the camp included the campfire and a problem solving knot problem.

Participants held hands to become a human knot and had to work together to untangle themselves without letting go.

the “Summer of Love.” We are feeling God’s love every day.

This past Friday evening, I joined our theater-goers for a trip to Timberlake Playhouse for the production of “Noises Off.” Don and Vicki Hay, Charlotte Hoppe, and I enjoyed dinner and conversation before making our way to the theater.

On Saturday evening, I joined my good friend, Teresa, for dinner.

We shared some much needed laughs and good conversation. I am very blessed to have some wonderful friends that share my life.

This afternoon, I attended the graduation party of my nephew, Hayden Bittinger.

My brother, Ben, his wife, Jo, and their sons, Hayden and Garrett, welcomed many family and friends to the Silver Ridge Golf Course for food and visiting throughout the afternoon.

I especially enjoyed catching up with my cousin, Luke Sheely, and my aunt, Bobbi Deen. It was a wonderful afternoon to share with fami-

ly and friends.

After the party, Hayden and his friends played a round of golf.

Hayden will be attending school in Platteville this fall.

On Monday night, our annual walking club started their regular meetings.

This is such a wonderful time of visiting, fresh air, and walking around the neighborhood.

Unfortunately, I won’t be able to join our little group due to a broken bone in my foot.

A few weeks ago, I was walking out to my car at my workplace and felt a small pain in my foot.

I related it to a previous injury and thought it was similar and would heal quickly.

After a couple of weeks and more pain, the doctor confirmed my fears.

The good news is that it can be fixed. The bad news is that the healing process is very slow and may require help from surgery.

At first, I wasn’t bothered too much by the inconvenience until I realized my plans for visiting two

of my children in August will need to change.

This has become a time to recharge and rest. For the past few months, I have been moving at a much faster pace.

Now is the time to slow down and take care of myself and God reminded me of that fact in a way that I can’t ignore.

For now, my prayers are for complete and quick healing.

I know that it can happen because God is good and listens when I pray.

He will answer when we reach out to Him. It is good to know we are not alone because our loving Father watches over us.

I hope to see you next week in our church in the country.

We are praying that the weather will start to cooperate as our building plans are very slow moving.

Please come and join us as we learn about God’s love and the plans He has for us.

The StingRays take the stage July 5 in Mt. Morris The Mt. Morris Jamboree will host Chicago’s Oldie’s Rock and Roll Band, The StingRays, for a free concert on Friday, July 5 from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Reckmeyer Band Shell, during the Let Freedom Ring.

“Everyone fortunate enough to see previous shows by this exciting and engaging act will fondly remember the dance contests, trivia, and dynamic stage presence of this wonderful band and will attest to the ‘do not miss’ grade level of their show,” said sent organizer Larry Ubben.

The StingRays play with the energy, passion, and authenticity of the artists whose music they love.

Their music, great rapport with audiences, their look, and the famous StingRay moves have made them repeated favorites at festivals, concert series, casinos, clubs, corporate events, and parties throughout the Midwest, he said.

The StingRays love interacting with audiences through trivia, dance contests, and even joining people in the audience.

They get the crowd dancing and singing to songs from Rockabilly — tons of 60s — to the 70’s.

They have opened for some of the

YOUR ENVIRONMENT

Several areas in Illinois have reported large numbers of black flies that have been biting poultry, pets, livestock, and people.

Several poultry have died as a result of these attacks and people have sought medical attention.

Here are answers to frequently asked questions about buffalo gnats or black flies.

What are they?

Buffalo gnats or black flies are blood-sucking flies of the Simuliidae family. The females may attack people and animals in an effort to have a blood meal for egg production.

Do they pose a public health risk?

In humans their bites typically cause pain, itching, and swelling.

However, those who have an allergic reaction may have more serious complications.

Will they harm my animals?

The consequences for animals can be more severe. Livestock and poultry are sometimes killed by the flies when bitten by large numbers of them. Death can be due to anaphylactic shock, toxemia, blood loss, or suffocation when the flies are inhaled. Some species of black flies can transmit a bloodborne parasite that affects poultry called, leukocytozoon.

When can I expect them to be a problem?

The adults emerge in the late spring to early summer and are known to travel more than 10 miles in search of a meal. The larvae are

very sensitive to water temperature. Once the water temperature reaches 66 -75 degrees F the larvae will die and the buffalo gnat season is over until next year.

Why are they causing problems now?

The eggs are laid in running water and the larvae are filter feeders.

They are sensitive to sediment, toxins, and low oxygen levels in the water. With adequate rainfall and as surface water quality improves the conditions are more favorable for the flies.

How can I protect myself from them?

Black flies are outdoor, daytime

feeders so the best protection is avoidance. If you must be outside, light colors and long sleeves are recommended. Permethrin treated clothing and insect repellants containing DEET have been used with limited success.

How can I protect my animals from them?

Animals that are housed indoors are at a much lower risk of being bitten even if the building is not flyproof. It is recommended that poultry be kept indoors in a darkened barn during the day. Usually fans or some means of cooling are needed.

Permethrin-based fly control products are recommended for livestock and poultry.

landing pit the jumpers used during that period. On the first Saturday of April, a half-dozen pick-up trucks would go to the Holm’s farm and bring back 100+ bales of hay. (Harlan Holm’s father would donate the hay bales for the pole vault each spring.)

First, we made a 15’ by 15’ bottom layer of hay bales. Next, we made sides around the perimeter staking the bales two high.

The second Saturday in April, the pickup trucks drove to the mattress company in Morris, Illinois and loaded up with mattress remnants.

Bales of hay and foam rubber pieces became our landing pit for the season.

The amazing thing was that the Hawk pole vaulters overcame this inadequate landing facility. Our pole vaulters during

that four-year period included: Brian Thompson (12’ 9”); Steve Janssen (11’6”); Larry Green (10’ 6”); Ken Kubat (10’3”); Terry Johnson (9’ 6”); and Mike Johnson (8’ 6”).

Steve (1970) and Brian (1972) were conference champions in the pole vault.

They also provided the winning point margins for three straight Blackhawk Conference Team Championships.

I would like to end this letter by thanking the Holm family for donating the bales of hay and the track team members for driving to the mattress company in Morris.

Also, a final congrats to Jake and Oregon Girls Track & Field team for their Big Northern Conference Championship.

PUBLIC VOICE An open letter to Congressman Kinzinger Dear Editor, Well, there you are making headline news this morning criticizing President Trump for not launching a totally out of proportion attack on Iran which could have killed up to 150 people when you should be criticizing Trump and his administration every day for their many multiple cruel policies but especially for sending his Justice Department lawyer to court (Sarah Fabian) and saying in a recent hearing, that a toothbrush and soap were not necessary to fulfill requirements for sanitary conditions for detained migrant children and that children can sleep on cold concrete floors.

I am disgusted!

I hope readers will write to Rep.

Former OHS coach remembers pole vault prep from 1969-1972 Hello Oregon, The purpose of this letter is to congratulate senior Jake Mennen on his second place medal in the pole vault (14’) at the Illinois High School Association’s Track & Field Meet.

I had the opportunity to talk to Jake as he was warming up for the finals on Saturday. I explained that I was the head track coach from 1969 to 1972 when Oregon had a grass track.

We also talked about the pole vault

ENFORCEMENT UPDATE

Focus to be on impaired drivers, seat belt law violators Ogle County Sheriff Brian VanVickle announced plans for July Fourth traffic enforcement with a focus on impaired and unbuckled drivers.

The safety campaign runs from June 17 through July 8 to encompass three summer weekends leading up to and after Independence Day. “We’re asking all of our residents and visitors to celebrate Independence Day safely,” VanVickle

said. “It’s simple: if you’re driving, don’t drink or use drugs. Our officers will be out in full force to keep impaired drivers off the road.”

The Ogle County Sheriff’s Office will join the Illinois State Police and more than 160 local police and sheriff’s departments for the increased statewide enforcement effort.

The “Drive Sober or Get Pulled Over” and

“Click It or Ticket” campaigns are made possible by federal traffic safety funds administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation.

The crackdown runs concurrently with a media campaign reminding motorists that impaired driving has “Life or Death” consequences.

SCHOOL NEWS

Classrooms painted at Chana Education Center Sherwin Williams, school staff paint two classrooms Two classrooms at the Chana Education Center are sporting new paint thanks to Sherwin Williams.

The school, located in Chana, was chosen as a Sherwin Williams Madison South Region’s National Painting Week host site and on May 31 residential and commercial store representatives from more than 10 Sherwin Williams locations throughout Beloit, Freeport, Rockford, Sterling, Machesney Park, Dixon, Belvidere, and Loves Park, as well as a 3M representative for Construction and Home Improvement spent the day with several Chana staff completely transforming both the sensory and art rooms.

The project was organized

by Freeport store manager, Amanda Dinderman, originally from Oregon.

She has become involved with the school after hearing of the positive impacts that Chana has had on both the lives of its students and area community.

“The Chana school is doing good things for kids, so we wanted to do something good for them,” she said.

She coordinated with her regional team and 3M partner to provide the paint, supplies, and labor to makeover two class spaces that are utilized by students in the Chana programs.

3M also donated a surplus of 3M hanging products to display student projects on a newly painted gallery wall in the art room.

Here are some of the people who painted walls at the Chana Education Center. In the front row, left to right, are: Melissa Kidder, Chana Education Center; Edgar Rico, Rockford Area Sherwin Williams; Andrew Elwart, Rockford Commercial Sherwin Williams; and June Hockison, Chana Education Center. Second row: Daniel Sova, 3M Rep; Zach Hinricher, Rockford East Sherwin Williams;, Chris King, Belvidere Sherwin Williams; Amanda Dinderman, Freeport Sherwin Williams; Becky Bielema, Sterling Sherwin Williams; Shannon Logsdon, Machesney Park Sherwin Williams; Ryan Gray, Rockford Area Sherwin Williams; Cole Dixson, Rockford Area Sherwin Williams; Brent Wadlington, Loves Park Sherwin Williams; and Reggie Williams, Beloit Sherwin Williams.

Sherwin Williams stores from all over the country celebrate National Painting Week by donating time and materials to freshen up community spaces.

This year, more than 4,300 stores have partnered with local organizations to volunteer over 1,300 hours of time and 2,500 gallons of paint to make a colorful impact on their communities.

SUDOKU PUZZLE

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes.

Happy 12th Birthday Patrick!

OGLE COUNTY NEWSPAPERS

Astrograph Let your emotions lead the way this year. Bring about change because it makes you happy, helps you feel secure, or gives you a sense of accomplishment. Seek partnerships.

FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 2019 CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Make positive suggestions and lend a helping hand. Don’t make a change just because someone else does.

Don’t react or respond impulsively.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- Your emotions will dictate the changes you make. Try not to let anger or irrational behavior lead to a no-win situation. Think matters through before you take action.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- Let change come to you.

Refuse to let your emotions take control or lead you into an unsavory situation.

Choose peace and love over discord, and health over excess and indulgence.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Review your relationships with others.

Reducing stress can be as easy as eliminating the people or situations that are causing you grief. Do what’s best for you.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22) -- An attitude adjustment will encourage you to make a change. Let go of people and situations that have been dragging you down.

A practical lifestyle will get you back on track.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Deals can be made if you are direct about what you want and what you have to offer. Don’t expect everyone to be pleased by a change to how you think or do things.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Force issues and make things happen. If you don’t, someone else will take charge and control what you can and cannot do. If you don’t take action, you’ll have only yourself to blame.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Do your own thing and don’t let what others say or do interfere with your plans. Use your skills and experience to help you get ahead.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Take a time-out and

do something that you find relaxing. Catching up with an old friend or curling up with a book will ease stress. Put your health and emotional well-being first.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Read the fine print if you are negotiating a contract. Make an adjustment to your living arrangements or help an older relative get used to inevitable changes.

Put some time aside for romance.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Handle people with care. How you deal with others will make a difference in how well you are treated in return. Choose to be kind and sensitive, not critical or demanding.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- A professional change that offers greater freedom should be looked at seriously. Money is important, but not more so than your mental and emotional health. Aim to lower stress. ©2018 UFS
