McCracken looks at 2014 budget

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — The tentative budget for Fiscal Year 2014 was presented

by Superintendent Jay McCracken at the Putnam County Board meeting on Aug. 19.

McCracken reported during the FY 2013, the district was in the black, and for 2014, the figures also look positive. After tax abatement from the

enterprise zone, the incoming revenue will be $4,504,599, an increase of $179,539 from the previous year.

The tax rate generating income has gone up .22 percent to 3.96 from the previous year. The Corporate Personal Property Replacement Tax or CPPRT is estimated at $2,825.290. McCracken was pleased with this news as he noted this is a major increase from last

year’s income of $2.6 million dollars.

“This tax has been very good for Putnam County,” he said. “That amount is more than we have ever received in the history of the district. That is going to help us achieve the balanced budget.”

Other revenue streams for 2014 will include $498,099 in state aid and $267,438 in tuition for the 29 Lostant students attending Putnam County

High School.

“We love having our Lostant students. They are good students, and we enjoy having them in our district,” McCracken said.

Doing more with less, Putnam County Schools’ Title I grants will come in at $89,573 for 2014 compared to last year’s total of $105,380. Title II grants will be $29,767.

The early childhood program grants are anticipated to be $220,704 for the

school year.

The annual budget hearing will be held at 6 p.m. Sept. 16 in the Putnam County Primary School.

In additional business, the board heard a report from McCracken saying while the first day of school went well, the technology for the district went down during the school day. Mediacom, the Internet provider for the district, suffered a

nationwide outage for part of the day. The phone system also suffered problems and was not working on Aug. 19. McCracken wanted to assure parents the schools and staff were not being negligent but were impeded in responses by this problem.

President Pro-tem Adrienne Shore led the meeting in absence of President Vicki Nauman and Vice President Kirsten Popurella.

Putnam County Library hosts open house Renovations at Condit branch

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

PUTNAM — Putnam County Library Director Bobbie Morgan has been busy of late. Morgan hired Susan Devlin, a Putnam resident to work in the Condit branch of the PC Library District.

Both women have been giving the library an overhaul.

“It’s very exciting for me to see it actually looking like a library,” Devlin said.

What she is referring to is the extensive cleaning and rearranging of rooms in the historic Condit House which has served the community most recently as a library.

Morgan and Devlin have moved books from room to room, brought in new shelves — which Morgan has stained — to put the books on.

“She (Morgan) has made it into a nice area and a comfortable spot for people to come,” Devlin said.

“What we have tried to do is match the shelving to the space. Where before you had a shelving unit and then there would be 4 inches here and 4 inches there. Now we have shelving units to fill the wall space, so we are utilizing the space a bit better.”

Saving space has

opened up window areas to let more natural light in. This simple idea has given the Condit Library a warm and friendly look in each room. There is now a room dedicated to children’s books and DVDs; a room with a table for computer access and the adult DVDs and books on tape; a fiction room and a non-fiction room. Each room takes the antique furniture like the comfortable chairs and makes a reading area for patrons. There also is a table with chairs in every room for those who want to research and work on projects.

“We have these beautiful pieces (furniture), and we want people to be able to see them,” said Morgan. “There’s a lot of talk about the furniture at the Condit house. So we had a computer desk in the main room, and we took it out and put in the post office desk — just little things like that so they are not clumped, and they are in places where they can be highlighted and people can see them.”

Morgan received a great deal on the new shelves going into the Condit Library.

“I was at a presentation by the Jill Rodriguez from the Bensenville library,”

Solving pump issues in Granville

By Ken Schroeder kschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — The Granville Village Board wasted no time at its Aug. 20 meeting, plowing through the agenda in 10 minutes. However, as has often been the case of late, the main topic was the village sewer system.

Public Works Supervisor Sheli Starkey told the board well pump No. 3 has been shut down for repairs to the system, and the parts for the pump will be here on Sept. 13. However, pump No. 4 needs to taken offline, cleaned and inspected, since it is the same model and vintage as the No. 3 pump. That

measure is being seen as a temporary solution.

“It’s a mercury pump,” said board member Randy Borio. “It’s going to have to be replaced.”

The cost of fixing pump No. 3 will be $19,400.

The estimate to pull and clean No. 4 is estimated around $15,000, although the village can save about $8,000 if both

Scammers don’t take summer vacations.

In recent weeks, Central Illinois residents have received medical alert services scams, FBI scams and “relative in jail” scams ... to name a few.

In a recent press release, Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan alerted Illinois residents to be wary of unsolicited calls, specifically those advertising free medical alert services. Her office has received a number of calls in recent weeks from concerned Illinois residents, reporting solicitations for “Medi Alert” or other medical alert services, which many seniors use to call for help in case of emergencies.

One area woman recently received two Medi-Alert scam calls in one week. The first time the caller stated the woman’s family had already paid for the service, but additional information was

needed. The Princeton woman knew her family had not done anything like that and hung up on the caller. With the second call, the Princeton woman hung up as soon as she heard the “medical alert” words.

“When you’re asked to provide personal financial information for a product you haven’t ordered, that’s a sure sign of a scam,” Madigan said. “Anyone who receives these calls should not provide their personal information, and they should hang up immediately.”

Another area resident said he received a call saying his grandson had been jailed in Mexico and needed bond money. The man knew that was not the case and hung up.

Princeton Police Chief Tom Root said residents should contact their law enforcement if they receive any of these kinds of phone calls. Any and every offer or request needs to be verified, and that verification can be done through

law enforcement agencies or the Better Business Bureau, Root said.

Unfortunately, scammers tend to target senior citizens who are retired and on fixed incomes, Root said, adding the scammer wants to get the senior citizen to think this is a way to increase their income.

In neighboring Putnam County, Sheriff Kevin Doyle issued a press release in June to inform citizens about a scam in which a county resident received a phone call from someone saying he was an FBI agent. The alleged agent told the citizen that she had won a large amount of money from a lottery but needed to send a $1,500 money order to Mexico City to receive the lottery winnings. Instead, the Putnam County resident contacted her local law enforcement agency.

The scam even included using the name of a Putnam County officer who was alleged to have confirmed the winnings, Doyle said.

The citizen spoke with the deputy who confirmed he had never spoken to her before

and that the Putnam County Sheriff’s Office does not confirm winnings of any kind.

Citizens should not give out any personal information over the telephone or computer and no one should send money to an individual they don’t know, Doyle said.

Bureau County Sheriff John Thompson said scammers keep coming up with new and innovative scams that suggest they are legitimate, but the fact is they are anything but legitimate.

Thompson said he talked just last week with an area resident who had received a scam telephone call, and he told the resident to not carry on the conversation with the caller but to just hang up.

“Obviously scams are still a problem in the community,” Thompson said. “People can’t be naive when it comes to people offering toogood-to-be-true opportunities. Don’t have anything to do with anything that asks for a transfer of money or offers something free.

Just don’t do it.”

“There was no gravel.

We pulled the grinder and found that during the (April) flooding, water had gotten into the seals and damaged

the bearings and broke the axle. We thought it was still working because the motor was still working. That was holding everything back,” said Starkey. “We’re going to turn it into insurance, and if that doesn’t take care of it, I’ll turn it into FEMA.” Cost for the repair on

the grinder is estimated at $19,000.

In Loving Memory of

Lloyd (Ted) Frazier Sept. 12, 1941 - Sept. 2, 2008

5 Years Gone But Not Forgotten Though your smile is gone forever, And your hand we cannot touch, Still we have so many memories of you, Whom we loved so much.

Your memory is our keepsake, With which we’ll never part, God has you in His keeping, We have you in our hearts.

When evening shades are falling, We often sit alone, To our hearts come a longing, If only you could come home.

Friends may think we have forgotten, When at times they see us smile, But they little know the heartache, Our smiles hide all the while.

With Lots of Love and Forever Missed by Your Family

Field of Dreams Marshall-Putnam counties lost a wonderful man recently. We will never be able to replace him.

Edgar Read was the kind of man you loved to be around, and you were always glad to visit with him and hear his sensible talk. Bob Kidd introduced me to Edgar; Bob and Edgar had served on the COMMENTARY county board and were close friends.

At Edgar’s wake, his son-in-law, Bob Doyle, told me he could not have had a better father-in-law than Edgar. I am sure his other son-in-law, Will Duke, would agree.

I remember Edgar flying the beautiful Stearman airplane that he and his friend, Ernie Bassi, owned.

I have taken pictures of Edgar flying over Henry when the Fourth of July parade was in progress and also when he flew over the M-P County Fair when the large tractor pull was held. Edgar always treated me with the utmost respect and kindness — the same as he treated everyone he met.

I graduated from Hopkins Township High School, and the HTHS just held its 11th Triennial Reunion at the Putnam County Primary School that sits on the same ground where the former high school sat.

I have always questioned why it was called Hopkins Township High School when it was in Granville Township, and there was no Hopkins Township. If someone knows the answer, please tell me.

The oldest alumni there was Anne Yearsley Madson who was a few days from being 100 years old and was in the Class of 1932. I’m sure everyone who attended or graduated from Hopkins High School feels like I do. I feel this building was far advanced over most schools when it was built in 1918. We certainly had great teachers that pushed us hard to learn and be good citizens. I moved from rural Tonica to rural McNabb in 1940 and met my Jeannie in the Hopkins High School gym when I graduated eighth grade in the spring of 1943. Correction, it was a one-way meeting. Jeannie did not remember me, although I played a clarinet solo.

••• Another highlight for me was living long enough to attend the 100th anniversary of the McNabb Grain Co. from 1913 to 2013. My dad was a large livestock farmer and had a large dairy herd of Holsteins. We raised their calves and fed out the steers, plus raising hogs, sheep and chickens, so we spent a lot of time at the McNabb Elevator and grain mill.

We would shovel ear corn and oats in a wagon before taking it by tractor the three miles to the grain mill. We usually had to sit in line a few hours before our turn. I was in awe of the large Cat diesel engine that drove the mill. When I think back to how many years I have done business with the McNabb Elevator it amounts to 73 years. I probably am one of their oldest customers that still does business with them. The only farmer I can think of besides me is Ernest Hansen, but

TO Letter THE Editor

Why the MarshallPutnam Fair should be moved To the Editor, It has been brought to my attention the fair board recently held a meeting in regards to moving the fair to the first weekend in August.

Members in attendance were polled on whether to pursue the proposed new dates. That particular date was selected because the Lucas Oil Pro Pulling League (www.propulling.com/) has that Saturday open.

The majority polled said not to pursue.

Below are the reasons why I think the fair should be moved: • Heart of Illinois Fair: The HOI Fair in 2013 was July 12-20 which overlaps with the Marshall-Putnam. This means many exhibitors and attendees have to

pick between the two fairs. It does not make sense to have fairs in neighboring counties running at the same time. August dates would not compete against fairs in nearby counties or the Illinois State Fair.

• No Super Modified Tractors in 2013 or 2014: One of the major draws to the PPL is the Featured Super Modified tractors (multi-engines).

Another fair scheduled them on the same date this year so the M-P Fair did not have them and will not have them in 2014. The new dates provide an opening to all classes of the PPL. • Fourth of July: Currently the fair is very close to the Fourth of July; in 2011, the fair was July 6–10. Henry hosts a carnival on July 1-4 which many families spend money on rides, food and drinks. This affects how much money

they have left to spend at the Marshall-Putnam Fair. There are also other festivities celebrating the Fourth of July throughout MarshallPutnam counties. Moving the fair would help space out these events helping many families both financially and time wise.

• Winter Wheat Harvest: According to the USDA’s Field Crops Usual Planting and Harvesting data the most active harvest dates for Illinois is June 19–July 11 which falls during the Marshall-Putnam Fair.

• Improved fruit and vegetable exhibits: Currently the fair is too early for most produce to be ready to be exhibited.

Below are the cons/ reason given why the fair should not be moved: • Preparing for back to school: Back to school can be expensive for families with kids. A

counterpoint is that many school districts give a school supply list at the end of the school year, and Walmart puts out their back to school supplies on July 5.

Marketing: The fair has been at the same time of year for a few years now, so the new dates would have to be publicized.

I personally feel the pros outweigh the cons.

I do realize there are many factors that will need to be addressed beyond what I have listed above.

If you are for or against moving the fair to the first weekend in August, please make your voice heard and contact the fair board members. They can be found in the 2013 Marshall-Putnam Fair Book – Page 6 - http://www. marshallputnamfair.org/ fairBook.html.

there could be more.

I enjoyed the crock pot gift and the wonderful history book put together by Greg Carr. I am sure the McNabb Elevator will be doing business 100 years from now if it stays in the hands of people like President Ben Day and his directors and also the general manager Bart Ericson and his staff.

Dave took the Panthers to the state Class 1A finals this last spring. I am sorry to see him leave, but I am proud of him and all he has accomplished. He is a baseball man through and through. Someday I would not be

surprised to see him coaching and managing the Chicago White Sox or the Cubs in the Major Leagues. I believe the hiring of the new PC coach and athletic director Joey Ohnesorge is a good move by our PC Board and Principal Bob Peterson. He will be only the fourth baseball coach in the Panther history.

Coach Joe Massino was the first, then coach Ken Jenkins and Dave Garcia.

Dollars and sense Gilligan named Extension’s new When teaching children the value of a dollar, consider the 50 percent rule Every day we take time to teach our children the values we hold near and dear to our hearts.

The values we choose to bestow upon our young ones differ based on priorities, faith, culture and experiCOMMENTARY ence. And while the lessons you choose to teach your children may be different than those your neighbor passes on to his, there are some constants which are inevitable that we all must teach.

One of these constants in our world is the basic need for money. Regardless of what importance you may or may not place on money, the need for cash is undeniable. Here are some tips to consider when teaching your children or grandchildren about money.

First and foremost, opening a savings account for a child is important. Teaching them to contribute money to that account is more important.

Let them know how much is in the account and reinforce the need to check this periodically.

Make them aware of the beauty of earnings and interest within their account. Show them a dollar saved today can be worth something more than a dollar in the future. The amount saved is not important but the systematic act of contributing money is.

How can a child save money if they don’t have any? Create a chore list where children receive a small stipend for their efforts – even one dollar per week teaches them work equals reward. The chore list in my house is not overwhelming, but it is also not optional ... much like a job. Does Junior want to clean Grandpa’s car for $5? Maybe the neighbor across the street needs their lawn mowed?

What does your child like to do? Perhaps a small business which doesn’t take much time is a possibility. My son loves to write, so he ran a small newspaper when he was young. He had 80 subscribers in five states! He even published an interview he conducted one-on-one with Congressman Aaron Shock. My daughter likes to bake.

She has a cupcake business which takes orders from across the county. Neither job is overwhelming, but the lessons are forever instilled.

If you still are not sure of a way to get started, try the 50 Percent Rule which I came up with years ago. It may or may not be for you, but it has been very effective for me. Here’s how it works…

Part 1: 50 percent of every dime that comes into your child’s hands (whether it’s from a birthday card, a graduation party, chores, etc.) goes into their account – no questions asked! The account only goes one direction – in but never out.

Part 2: Your child pays for 50 percent of anything they want. You pay for the other half. If it’s a $1 candy bar, they need to come up with 50 cents. If it’s a $100 game, they need $50 to pay for half (and remember, they can’t use money in their account).

What the 50 Percent Rule does is a lot. If your child has the fortitude, drive and energy to earn $100, you have already won. When they deposit $50 into their account, you’ve won again. When they want to buy that $100 game, you only have to fork out $50 ... NOW WE’RE TALKING! Regardless of how you teach your children and grandchildren about money, make sure it is a value you instill in them.

MCNABB — Putnam County High School Lady Panthers varsity girls golf squad started off the season with an impressive win over the LaSalle Peru High School Lady Cavilers varsity girls golf squad on Aug. 23. The Lady Panthers won by a score of 208 to 216 on their home course, Edgewood.

Coach Eric Cuicci explained highlights of the game.

“We played the front nine which measures a par 38,” he said. “Tara Doyle had a birdie on the Par 3 eighth hole.”

Leading the way for both teams was medalist Stephanie Wilson who shot a 48. The balance of the team followed with Tara Doyle scoring a 51, Carly Gonet a 53, and Kelsey Grosenbach a 56.

Aug. 23.

GRANVILLE — The Putnam County High School Panther golf squad is looking forward to improving this year. Panther head coach Josh Nauman noted he has a large group of golfers to fill both varsity and junior varsity positions on the team.

“Our Top 2 golfers on the team last year were Jon Mattern and Nathan Ward,” Nauman said. “They are both back this year, and that will help. It will be their third year playing varsity full time. They have a lot of experience.”

Ward just missed going to sectional competition in 2012. The Top 8 single golfers advance along with the Top 3 teams out of regional. However, Ward placed ninth and just missed the cut.

“Hopefully he can get into the sectional this year,” Nauman said.

Nauman is also looking forward to freshman Mitch Aimone who went to state competition in junior high school. Aimone will be on the varsity squad.

Jesse Goetsch was No. 3 or 4 on the team depending on the meet. Christian Charbonneau played varsity last year. Tyler Purcell and Michael Weide will add to the varsity team during the upcoming season.

Last year’s squad had only a small amount of experience. Nauman expects things to be better for the 2013 season.

“The team will have a year’s experience under their belts,” he said. “Hopefully, that will mean that they all will do better.”

According to Nauman, practice is the key to golf.

“You get out of it what you put into it,” he said.

“Hopefully the team has been out practicing over the summer, and we can hit the ground running. Once school starts we will only have a week and a half before our first meet. Golf is really about being out and playing all the time.

“We will try to work on our short game quite a bit.

Cuicci sisters a powerhouse on the golf course

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

MCNABB — Two young, Putnam County residents have had a successful summer in local golf tournaments. Ali Cuicci, 11, and Gracie Cuicci, 8, have been dominating golf tournaments in the children’s division.

Ali, who will be in the sixth grade at Putnam County Junior High, and Gracie, who will be in the third grade at Putnam County Elementary, live with their parents, Eric and Mandy Cuicci of Hennepin. Both have been playing golf since they were 3 years old. The girls have interesting memories of their early play.

“It was really fun when I was young,” said Gracie.

“We hit balls in the winter into a net. I did it in the summer too.”

Father Eric Cuicci would often bring a picnic out to the course to make things more fun.

“I like it when I hit the ball far,” said Ali. “But if I didn’t, I got mad at myself almost.”

Ali got frustrated so much as a young girl that she stopped playing, however, picked it up again this year.

She liked it much more saying she had much better arm strength. Both girls agree, in golf the mental part of the game is important.

This summer both girls attended tournaments and had a lot of success. The girls placed first and second in the 9-11 year old age group in these tournaments.

Gracie even got a promotion.

“In the Spring Valley meet, I jumped up into Ali’s age group,” she said.

In the Spring Creek Junior League, which was five to seven different tournaments, the girls did well.

Playing in the 9- to 11-year-old division, Ali took first, while Gracie took second. In Pontiac and Sterling tournaments, this was repeated with one tournament having Gracie taking first and Ali taking second. The Pontiac tournament had Gracie playing in the 8-yearold division. In the Illinois Valley Junior Tournament at Spring Creek, Ali took first, and Gracie took second.

Both girls agree their favorite place to play is Edge-

PCJH softball has full week

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

MCNABB — The Putnam County Junior High School Lady Pumas played five games this week and ended up with a 4-1 record on the week.

On Aug. 24, the team played a doubleheader versus Indian Creek. In game one, the Pumas stomped their opponents, 16-3. Winning pitcher was C.C. Davis who went three innings, tossing three strike outs, giving up only two walks with no hits or runs.

Olivia Holmes came in to finish the game in relief, pitching two innings with two strikeouts and three walks. The Lady Puma hitting attack was led by catcher Paige Veronda who belted two home runs over the right-center field fence, one triple and collected eight RBIs on the day.

In game two of the doubleheader, both teams hit the opposing pitchers hard, but PCJH came out on top 20-13.

Every player on the Lady Pumas team got in the game.

In the Lady Pumas only loss of the week on Aug. 23, the team dropped a game to Eureka by a score of 11-7. Losing pitcher for the game was Alivia Resurreccion.

PCJH hitters included Davis who went one for three, Olivia Holmes and Jordyn Friel who both went one for two. Coach Chris Walker hoped his team learned from their mistakes in this game.

“A letdown on defense and a little lack of focus led to a Pumas loss today,” Walker said.

“After a very constructive team meeting discussing our mistakes and emphasizing our positive improvement, the team came out on Saturday and played exceptionally well.”

On Aug. 20, the Lady Pumas took on a Metamora team and won 6-3. Winning pitcher was Davis who pitched seven innings in a com-

by Lindsey DiazDeLeon who went two for three and had two stolen bases. Veronda went two for four with a triple and two RBI. Holmes and Carleigh Wellenreiter both went one for three.

The Lady Pumas played hard against an Ottawa-Marquette team on Aug. 19 and won the

game 13-2. Davis again pitched a strong game, going three innings with eight strikeouts and allowing only one hit.

Holmes pitched the last two innings in relief, with three strikeouts and one walk. PCJH catcher Veronda led the hitting attack by going two for two with a double and three RBI while both DiazDeLeon and Holmes went one for two.

The next game the Lady Pumas will play will be at Streator-Woodland at 4:15 p.m. on Aug. 30.

wood Golf Course. Gracie also likes Spring Creek. For children’s golf, the par is set by the ladies’ par on each hole. Children’s foursomes in tournament play are assigned by the tournament organizers.

Both girls try to watch others as they play to see if they can learn anything new at meets.

“I usually watch them. Like if they hit better, I look at how they stand.

How they may put their fingers,” said

Ali. Both girls have interests outside of golf. Ali plans on participating in basketball and track at PCJH, while both girls swim and work on their putting green. They also have chores in the house. Gracie has a craft table she enjoys working at too.

And what about next summer?

They both think their sister power act could definitely be repeated next year.

Back to School: 2013-14 Summertime is winding down and vacations are coming to an end, signaling that back-to-school time is here. It’s a time that many children eagerly anticipate — catching up with old friends and making new ones, and settling into a new daily routine. Parents and children alike scan the newspapers and websites looking for sales to shop for a multitude of school supplies and the latest clothing fads and essentials.

Here are some of the many statistics associated with the return to classrooms by our nation’s students and teachers as provided by the Census Bureau.

• $8.5 billion: The amount of money spent at family clothing stores in August 2012. Sales at bookstores in August 2012 totaled $2 billion.

• For back-to-school shopping, choices of retail establishments abound: In 2011, there were 28,128 family clothing stores, 7,093 children and infants clothing stores, 25,448 shoe stores, 8,144 office supply and stationery stores, 21,227 sporting goods stores, 8,407 bookstores and 8,625 department stores.

• 79 million: The number of children and adults enrolled in school throughout the country in October

2011 — from nursery school to college. They comprised 26.9 percent of the entire population age 3 and older.

• 77 percent: Percentage of children 3 to 6 enrolled in kindergarten who attended all day, as of October 2011.

• 73 percent: Percentage of children 3 to 6 years old who are enrolled in school.

• 25 percent: Percentage of elementary through high school students who had at least one foreignborn parent in October 2011.

• 15 percent: Percentage of all college students 35 and older in October 2011. They made up 32 percent of those attending school part time.

16 From You 16 • The Putnam County Record • Wednesday, August 28, 2013

A note from your superintendent August 2013 On behalf of our Putnam County C.U.S.D. 535 Board of Education, administration, and staff, I welcome our students and parents to the 2013/2014 School Year. Our entire staff has been extremely busy preparing for this school year, and our first week has proceeded well, providing a promising beginning for our P.C. students!

We are pleased to welcome our new, highly-qualified staff members to our Putnam County Schools. While it is difficult to have valued employees retire or move to other positions, our district has been very fortunate to hire excellent employees who are excited to join our P.C. educational team. Through our mentoring program for new teachers, those individuals should feel solid support from their fellow teachers and administration.

Focused professional development continues to be offered to our teachers and paraprofessionals, providing them cutting edge instructional information about a variety of educational topics, including Common Core Standards implementation. We continue our quest to improve technology throughout the district. The junior high and high school math departments are working closely with school administra-

tion to implement a major technology improvement for our students, and we will share details regarding this exciting venture in the coming weeks.

Our Putnam County Schools are some of the finest school facilities in the Illinois Valley area, and we are proud of the continued efforts to offer excellent instruction in schools that are continually updated and maintained.

At this time of the year, the district office staff is in the process of finalizing the budget, and we are fortunate to remain fiscally responsible to our taxpayers while providing an outstanding education for our students. In June, we finished our fiscal year very successfully, well within our projected budget. We had anticipated deficit spending during the last fiscal year, but we finished the year with $288,269.44 more than we had at the end of the previous fiscal year! This is amazing news, especially with continually reduced funding from the state of Illinois.

As the 2013/2014 school year begins, I express my sincere appreciation to all of you for the tremendous support that is provided our students by the Putnam County community. Together ... we can continue to make a positive impact on our P.C. youth!

Yours in Educational Service, Jay K. McCracken, superintendent

Annual walk set for Sept. 12 PERU — The 14th annual Illinois Valley Walk to End Alzheimer’s will be Sept. 12 at Baker Lake in Peru.

“Walk to End Alzheimer’s is the nation’s largest event to raise awareness and funds for Alzheimer’s care, support and research and it is a fantastic opportunity to support the Association’s vision of a world without Alzheimer’s,” said Nikki Vulgaris-Rodriquez, executive director with the Central Illinois Chapter. “Attendees at our walks report feeling a sense of fellowship with others who have experienced the tragedy of Alzheimer’s. Walkers can get information about the Association’s programs and services, research and clinical trial enrollment, and advocacy opportuni-

ties. Each walker will also join in a meaningful ceremony to honor those affected by Alzheimer’s disease.”

All participants who raise $100 or more will receive a Walk to End Alzheimer’s T-shirt and additional prizes; individuals who raise $500 or more will become members of the Walk to End Alzheimer’s Champions Club.

Individuals can start or join a team at www.alz.org/illinoiscentral/in_my_community_walk.asp or call Walk Manager Kari Gabbert at the chapter office at 800-272-3900 or 309-681-1100.

The walk day schedule will be: 5 p.m.. registration; 6 p.m., opening ceremony; and 7 p.m., individual and team recognition.
