Few contested races make Putnam County election turnout a dismal one KIM SHUTE kshute@shawmedia.com

HENNEPIN — It was a night for incumbents in Putnam County, with most races seating existing village presidents and board trustees.

Hennepin village trustee saw a four-way race for three seats; Christian Cyr, Quentin Buffington and Theresa Clausen snagged those spots, besting opponent Lynn Haage.

Putnam County School District saw five candidates vying for four spots. In the end, those seats were earned by Nathanael Bird, Michael Borri, Keith King and Reed Wilson. Jesse Nauman did not garner enough votes for a seat.

McNabb is currently without a village president The village of McNabb is without a village president, with no one on the ballot for the seat. Putnam County Clerk Dan Kuhn said the village put an ad in the paper for a village president, and his understanding is there is an interested party. During McNabb’s May board meeting, the board will discuss the open seat and should the interested person be present they can vote to appoint a village president.

Voter turnout Tuesday’s consolidated election brought out just 20% of Putnam County voters, but with only two

contested races, Kuhn said that wasn’t unexpected. Kuhn said consolidated elections always bring out fewer voters and this one, combined with few contested spots, just didn’t inspire people to hit the polls.

Of 4,192 registered voters, just 873 cast ballots in the county. Kuhn said there is only one outstanding absentee ballot as of Wednesday morning.

Of the ballots counted, 86 were early voters, he reported.

ILLINOIS

Rezin calls for independent redistricting commission Lawmaker co-sponsors the People’s Independent Maps Act Senate Republican Deputy Leader Sue Rezin (R-Morris) is co-sponsoring the People’s Independent Maps Act, which gives an independent commission the power to create Illinois legislative redistricting maps, rather than politicians.

She is doing so in an effort to combat gerrymandering of districts, she said.

“The People’s Independent Maps Act ensures that the residents of Illinois are the ones who pick their lawmakers, instead of the current system where politicians decide their constituency,” Rezin said in a press release.

“For years, Illinoisans on both sides of the political spectrum have called for the use of an independent commission that truly represents their inter-

ests, instead of the partisan politics that are currently used.”

The People’s Independent Maps Act, Senate Bill 1325, uses identical language from the bipartisan SJRCA 0004, which was a constitutional amendment for an independent redistricting commission. The resolution garnered 37 co-sponsors in the Senate, including 18 Democrats.

The People’s Independent Maps Act:

Gives the Supreme Court the power to appoint 16 independent, citizen commissioners to the Independent Redistricting Commission within 30 days of becoming law.

The makeup of the Commission would be required to reflect the ethnic, gender and racial demographics of the state.

Party affiliation would be evenly split in addition to members without party affiliation.

Legislators, state employees and lobbyists are prohibited from serv-

ing on the commission.

The Commission would be required to hold at least 10 public hearings throughout the state before adopting a plan, with at least four hearings after a map is proposed.

The commission will release a map within 30 days of receipt of the census redistricting data.

This legislation would only apply to the 2021 redistricting cycle.

“It is our duty to ensure that the people of Illinois are fairly represented during the drawing of legislative districts,” Rezin said. “It is time for lawmakers to do the right thing by removing ourselves from the redrawing process.”

In addition to sponsoring the People’s Independent Map Act, Rezin is a member of the Kane and Kendall Counties Senate Redistricting Committee and the Sub-Minority Spokesperson for the Kankakee and Will Counties Senate Redistricting Committee.

HENNEPIN

Pedaling it forward: Putnam County man gives back restored bicycles to those in need GOLDIE RAPP grapp@bcrnews.com

HENNEPIN — For the past year, Mark Hamilton has spent his free time fixing up and restoring bicycles to give back to those who may never had gotten the opportunity to own one.

Hamilton got started on this hobby through the Putnam County Rotary Club. He’s always had a knack for restoring antiques and decided to use his talent restoring broken bicycles that still had a lot of life in them. He started working with The Bike Place in Princeton which has donated many bicycle parts to assist in his endeavors.

In just a short time, Hamilton has given away hundreds of bicycles and has received acknowledgements from several schools, communities and organizations throughout Bureau and Putnam counties including Hall High

Most recently, Hamilton’s charitable endeavors reached a much further distance. Through his own network, Ms. Illinois World International Tiffany Kory, out of Chicago, reached out to Hamilton and asked if he’d donate bikes to an event in Chicago that will serve families in need.

Of course, Hamilton couldn’t turn down the offer. Last Friday, Kory drove from Chicago to Hennepin with a large flatbed trailer in tow to pick up the first round of bikes Hamilton has been working on for the event, which is set for next month.

The first load consisted of 32 bikes, but Kory has plans to come back for more. The plan is to give away between 50 and 60 bicycles for the event. Kory said these will be given to children who otherwise would never have the opportunity to own a bicycle.

Hamilton was happy to have been asked to help. He said restoring things is just something he likes to

do. He’s spent the entire winter putting bikes back together again. He’s even becoming well known throughout the Putnam County communities as the man to go to if you need a newly restored bike or perhaps just need a bicycle repair. With the weather warming up, he’s said the requests are picking up for the season, but he’s happy to see all the interest is bicycle riding. He said often times he just leaves the bikes he’s restored outside of the shop he works out of and people swing by to see what he has on hand.

HENRY

Upcoming blood drives announced in Putnam County

State regent visits April meeting of Chief Senachwine DAR chapter

HENRY — Sharla Wilson Luken, state regent of the 104 Illinois chapters of the Daughters of the American Revolution, visited the April meeting of the Chief Senachwine Chapter NSDAR. Luken’s program topic was “Serving Those Who Have Served Us,” concerning our military veterans and ways to assist veterans personally and at Illinois veterans’ homes and hospitals.

Veterans’ sites encourage public assistance by helping to fund dogs trained for use by vets, especially those with PTSD; volunteering to help vets with collecting their mail, working in their yards and doing similar activities; driving vets to doctors’ appointments; and helping vets to find jobs. Recently, “green lighting” as a project has developed.

To “green light for vets” refers to buying a green light bulb to place in an outside lighting fixture or a front-window lamp. The green light exhibits visible appreciation for our military personnel.

Another guest for the day was Kathy Hughes, District II director, OVER

10

YEARS in the washing business!

who had also visited the chapter in October 2019.

A report during the meeting covered the process on how one is honored by the U.S. and made an honorary citizen. Seven individuals have been so honored. Among them are three from the Revolutionary War, including Gen. Casimir Pulaski, the father of the American cavalry, and honored in Illinois via Pulaski Day. Other honorees are Winston Churchill, Mother Teresa, William Penn and Raul Wallenberg (who aided Jewish people during World War II).

A Literacy Promotion report and one on International Women’s Day, which commemorates the cultural, political and socioeconomic achievements of women, were given. A report was also given on the March 27 District II virtual meeting, chaired by District Director Kathy Hughes.

June 3 was announced as the date of the District II mini-tour meeting.

Details will be forthcoming.

The next meeting of the Chief Senachwine Chapter will be at 1:30 p.m.

Sharla Wilson Luken Friday, May 7. Chairmen and officer reports will be given, and the officers for 2021-23 will be installed.

On Monday, April 26, the Putnam County Methodist churches will host a drive from 1 to 6 p.m. at Goldasich Hall in the McNabb Fire Station on Route 89 south of McNabb.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month To the Editor, Every 73 seconds, an American is sexually assaulted. One in four girls and one in six boys will be sexually assaulted by the time they are 18.

Sexual harassment, assault and abuse are serious issues impacting our community, affecting all people, regardless of age, race, gender, sexual orientation or economic status. This violence can have long-term effects on survivors. The likelihood that a person suffers suicidal or depressive thoughts increases after sexual violence. People who have been sexually assaulted are more likely to use drugs, and sexual violence also affects survivors’ relationships with family, significant others and friends.

April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, and an opportune time to discuss the ways our community can join together to complete two imperative goals: Raise awareness about sexual violence and create a community-led plan to lessen its prevalence.

It is difficult to confront an issue about which little is known beyond the myths that circulate

in our culture. We can deepen our understanding of sexual violence by encouraging discussions among friends and family about harassment, assault and abuse.

Once the public gains a basic understanding of harassment, assault and abuse, a communitylevel prevention plan can be initiated.

Begin by involving sexual violence into conversations about community change. Discuss ways to keep community members safe from violence at school, home, work and during local events. Contact local legislators to voice support for sexual violence survivors and advocate for their support on a constituent level.

In this way, our community can lift the voices of survivors and work together until our community is free of sexual violence.

Freedom House provides education and presentations on sexual violence to raise awareness for local agencies, organizations, churches, businesses, classes and groups. Anyone in our community is encouraged to contact us for more information. We are here to help.

Kayla Major, sexual violence counselor for Freedom House Princeton

Citing increased supply of vaccines, all Illinois residents 16 and older are now eligible for a COVID-19 vaccine.

This week, 150,000 first-dose appointments opened up at state-run sites including those in Cook County, Gov. JB Pritzker said.

For those who are 16 and 17 years old, the only vaccine they can take is Pfizer, as that is the only vaccine that has been given Emergency Use Authorization by the FDA for 16- and 17-year-olds. Anyone 18 or older is eligible to receive the Pfizer, Moderna and the single-shot Johnson & Johnson vaccines.

“We’re at a point where the variants are rising. We need to make sure that we open this up to everybody,” Pritzker said.

“We now need to get as many shots in arms as quickly as we possibly can.”

Illinois Department of Public Health Director Dr. Ngozi Ezike also gave an update that of the more than 2.5 million Illinois residents that have been fully vaccinated, only 72 have been hospitalized with COVID-19, meaning more than 99.9% of people who have been fully vaccinated have not been hospitalized.

FEMA offering COVID-19-related funeral assistance Beginning Monday, April 12, FEMA will begin accepting applications for COVID-19-related funeral assistance.

Under the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2021 and the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, FEMA will provide financial assistance incurred after Jan. 20, 2020.

People who have COVID-19 funeral expenses are encouraged to keep and gather documentation to apply for the assistance, including an official death certificate, funeral expenses documents and proof of funds received from other sources.

Who is eligible?

• The death must have occurred in the U.S., including the U.S. territories and the District of Columbia.

• The death certificate must indicate the death was attributed to COVID-19.

• The applicant must be a U.S. citizen, non-citizen national or qualified alien who incurred funeral expenses after Jan. 20, 2020.

• There is no requirement for the deceased people to have been a U.S. citizen, non-citizen national or qualified alien.

To apply, call the COVID-19 funeral assistance line at 844-684-6333 or 800462-7585. Hours of operation are from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday-Friday.

IDOT, ISP remind motorcyclist to ‘Ride Smart’ As warmer weather approaches, motorcycles are becoming a common sight. In an effort to advocate for a safe riding season, the Illinois Department of Transportation and Illinois State Police have joined forces to kick off the latest “Ride Smart” safety campaign, reminding motorcyclists to have their bikes safety-checked to make sure they’re in proper running condition, prepare their high-visibility clothing and take advantage of the free motorcycle training classes throughout the state.

“Motorcycles are on the road for just part of the year yet account for 15% of all traffic fatalities,” said Cynthia Watters, IDOT’s bureau chief of safety programs and engineering.

“To keep everyone safe, we urge drivers and motorcyclists to share the road, be alert and to always ride sober.

Motorcyclists are at an increased risk of injury or death when involved in a crash, so it is imperative that all riders ‘Ride

Smart’ this riding season.”

Motorcyclists need an M-Class endorsement and a valid driver’s license to legally ride in Illinois. Successful graduates of an IDOT training course (age 18 or over) are issued a completion card, waiving the M-Class testing requirement at an Illinois Secretary of State licensing facility.

To protect themselves, riders should always:

• Wear personal protective gear on every ride, including high-visibility (Hi-Viz) clothing.

• Use eye protection, gloves, jackets, pants, boots and a U.S. DOT-approved helmet • Remember to “Don’t Drink & Ride.”

“As more and more riders are getting ready for the season, we encourage riders to perform a thorough safety inspection on their motorcycle, often referred to as a T-CLOCKS inspection,” said ISP Director Brendan F. Kelly. “After the bike is roadworthy, it’s time to dust off the rider skill set with a quality rider training. And once riders head out, it’s important everyone share the roadway and make good choices behind the wheel and handlebar as they interact with each other in traffic.”

Arukah Institute of Health named fiscal agent for substance use prevention program

C5-Rural receives Drug-Free Communities Coalition designation

In the summer of 2019, five area organizations, including the Arukah Institute of Health, Perry Memorial Hospital, St. Margaret’s Health, North Central Behavioral Health System and Open Doors Counseling/ Gateway Services joined together to form the C4-Rural Network in the interest of seeking ways to improve mental wellness through local collaboration.

The group looked to address mental health and substance use issues throughout the area. Today, the Network has become C5-Rural, a collaboration of more than 30 members representing mental health service providers, law enforcement, physicians, hospitals, youth-serving organizations, businesses, schools, public health agencies, faith-based organizations, community organizations and interested citizens.

The collaboration is working to address needs on many levels in

LaSalle, Bureau, Marshall and Putnam counties.

C5-Rural is announcing today that it was recently named a Drug-Free Communities (DFC) Coalition by the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy. There are more than 700 DFC organizations across the country receiving federal grant support through the program. The DFC program is administered by the Centers for Disease Control.

A Drug Free Communities Coalition is recognized as a community-based formal arrangement for cooperation and collaboration among community groups or sectors to promote substance use prevention among youth. Each sector representative in a DFC coalition retains its identity and agrees to work together toward common goals.

There are 12 sectors represented in the 30-plus members of C5-Rural. Sectors include healthcare, youth-serving organizations, parents, youth, faith-based organizations, law enforcement, business and others.

With specific regard to area youth, the Mission of C5-Rural is “to empower rural youth to be socially-emotionally resilient and substance free by: 1) Enhancing protective factors and

Restaurant reviews

Niel & Shorty’s proves a go-to place for barbecue While its name may be Niel & Shorty’s, there is no shortage of tasty barbecue items on the menu.

Niel & Shorty’s BBQ Co. is the go-to place for barbecue on South Main Street in Princeton. The restaurant offers a full menu featuring sandwiches, burgers, smoked barbecue plates, baby back ribs and chicken items.

The eatery now operates Thursday through Saturday, open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. for lunch, and from 4 to 8 p.m. for dinner.

Niel & Shorty’s also can supply its smoked meats and homemade sides for parties and gatherings. Call 815-303NIEL (6435) for pricing.

While Niel & Shorty’s is offering dine-in service, we opted for carryout, helped by the friendly staff. And my party of five was not disappointed. The restaurant also provides outdoor dining and curbside service.

We all have our old standbys when we go to Niel & Shorty’s.

For me, it’s a combination smoked plate of pulled pork and turkey with sides of baked beans (you’ve got to get baked beans when you have barbecue) and potato salad. It was delicious as always.

One person in my party ordered a combination plate of pulled pork and brisket with sides of baked beans and potato salad.

Another order was for a brisket plate with the popular Niel & Shorty’s sweet potato waffle fries and potato salad.

Two people in my group both selected a pulled pork plate with sides of taffy apple salad and sweet potato waffle fries.

Each of the smoked barbecue plates costs $12.95.

We also ordered some sweet corn nuggets ($6.95) for an appetizer, and as its name implies, the nuggets were “sweet” tasting.

Several other options are available for appetizers, ranging from $2.95 to $7.95.

LEFT: This is a combination barbecue plate of pulled pork and turkey with sides of baked beans and potato salad. RIGHT: Another smoked barbecue plate features beef brisket with sides of sweet potato waffle fries and potato salad.

They include corkscrew shrimp; fresh homemade seasoned pork rinds; homemade chip basket with bistro sauce; pickle fries; fried okra; “Shorty’s loaded skins” – smashed potato skins topped with bacon, cheese, onion and sour cream to which you can add smoked meat for

$2; mozzarella sticks with battered cheese curds; and spicy cauliflower. The shrimp starter serves a half pound of lightly dusted and barbecue-seasoned seafood.

Other dishes with a twist extend to a grilled romaine heart salad; coleslaw with blue cheese and walnuts; and

stuffed grilled cheese served on Texas toast with a choice of pulled pork, beef brisket or turkey.

The restaurant serves ample portions, so most of us had enough leftovers for lunch the next day.

Total bill for our party of five was $77.50.

This trip has whetted our appetite for more Niel & Shorty’s.
