Granville Cruise In raises more than $4,000 for Putnam County VFW

GRANVILLE — The Granville Cruise In, held on Friday, Aug. 6, was a huge success with a large turnout. The Granville Cruise Committee did a wonderful job planning and hosting the event.

On the evening of the event, veterans from the Putnam County VFW helped the committee with members being present to lend a hand with the evening’s event.

On Sept. 21 the Granville Cruise Committee donated the proceeds of more than $4,000 to the Putnam County VFW. The Putnam County VFW Post 8324 stated, “Wow, what an unbelievable donation. We thank the Granville Cruise Committee deeply.

“With this donation, it will allow us to continue with our core mission of veterans helping veterans.

Locally that means performing final salutes of a firing squad for veteran’s funerals, supplying some basic needs to veterans at the LaSalle Veterans Home, and promoting Americanism in our local schools and community.”

Any eligible veteran wanting to join the Putnam County VFW can contact Gary Bruno at 815-339-6999 or any other member.

Putnam County High School journalism class awarded grant

School will purchase camera and other equipment KIM SHUTE

kshute@shawmedia.com GRANVILLE — Putnam County High School’s journalism program has been awarded a $1,500 grant from the Illinois Press Foundation and Illinois Farm Bureau.

Jeff Rogers, Illinois Press Foundattion director, along with Tiffanie Moody, manager of the Marshall-Putnam Farm Bureau, and Sam Fisher of the Illinois Press Association, were on hand Tuesday, Sept. 21, to present the check to instructor Bethany Zavada.

Rogers stated that the Illinois Press Foundation renewed its Mini-Grant program this year after it had been dormant since 2018 while the foundation focused on launching the Capitol News Illinois news service. Plans to resume the program in 2020 were derailed by the COVID-19 pandemic and the closure of schools to in-person learning.

“Schools throughout the state were invited to apply for grants of up to $1,500. The Illinois Press Foundation Board, in consultation with Illinois Farm Bureau, selected this year’s 18 recipients of a total of $22,133.87,” Rogers said.

“The Illinois Press Foundation is proud to have a partner in the Illinois Farm Bureau that is committed to helping high school journalism programs throughout the state,” he con-

These students and teachers are excited about journalism, and promoting the First Amendment and news literacy.

We hope that these grants help them in learning and practicing the noble craft of journalism.”

“To me, the First Amendment

means that people should be able to speak their mind without facing government repercussions,” student Erin Brooker said. “People should not fear for their livelihood simply because they have a different opinion. If it was not for the First Amendment, our country would be a very dull place and journalism would not have the impact that it does.”

Rotary presents dictionaries to third-grade students

This year marks The Dictionary Project’s 15th year Putnam County Rotary presented each third grader with his and her own personal dictionary in a combination live and Zoom event held with Rotarians and students on Sept. 22.

The virtual presentation did not detract from the project’s goal of emphasizing the importance of using an actual dictionary, where you see words in context, and where you can browse reference materials from American history to weights and measures, to the galaxy and beyond.

Among the presenters were Club Literacy Chair Adriane Shore, Scott Shore, and in the classrooms were Rotarian Dan Ramirez and school Superintendent Dr. Clay Theisinger.

Students were challenged with some fun trivia and word-find activities using their new dictionaries.

Rotarians also explained the bookplate on which each wrote his or her name, bearing the Rotary ”4-way test” which emphasizes the importance of

Putnam County Schools Superintendent Dr. Clay Theisinger (far left) is pictured with several third graders having just received their personal dictionaries in a virtual presentation by PC Rotary Literacy Chair Adriane Shore and Scott Shore, seen on the whiteboard behind the students. Dictionaries were given to each PCES third grader, along with a Spanish-English dictionary for bi-lingual students.

being truthful, fair and friendly, while always acting in a manner that will be beneficial to all concerned. … and if students did not know the meaning of the word “beneficial,” now they can look it up.

PC Rotary, in partnership with the Putnam County Library, will also make dictionaries available to home-

schooled students. Families may contact Rotarian Matt Miller at PC Library’s Hennepin headquarters, 815-925-7020.

This marks the project’s 15th year and 17th class of recipients. The Dictionary Project is part of Rotary’s world-wide support of literacy and learning. The project has delivered

more than 250,000 dictionaries this fall, and more than 33 million dictionaries since the national project’s founding in 1995.

Volunteers are needed for additional literacy projects, including reading children’s books for the Club’s “Rotary Readers” project. To volunteer, email PutnamCountyRotary@gmail.com.

Putnam County Education Foundation sponsors field trip to Chicago for Spanish 4 students

Senora Lenkaitis and her Spanish 4 class recently took a field trip to the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago.

Students started the day with a guided tour of the Day of the Dead Exhibition, which included works from local artists and artists that came in from Mexico to design and set-up altars. Students also viewed an altar by Sandra Cisneros, an American writer best known for her first novel, “The House on Mango Street.” Cisneros is from Chicago and created the altar for her mother.

After the guided tour, students looked at artwork in five other galleries in the museum from Hispanic artists. After visiting the museum, students walked to a Mexican restaurant, “Las Carnitas” and ordered their food in Spanish.

• GRANT Continued from Page 2 Zavada, who is in her first year instructing the class, said she applied for the grant before even taking over the program.

The school intends to purchase a new camera, higher quality paper and new software with the funds, something the class is grateful for.

How will the grant help the journalism class as a whole?

“It will help to take trips to expose the class to real-life examples of journalism,” Conner Brooker said. ”It’s going to provide a better camera to capture quality photos and document student memories,” Isac Alvarado said.

Of the 17 students, Zavada said five may pursue journalism as a profession; other students chose it for the valuable life skills.

“I took journalism this year because I thought it would be a fun class. I also thought it would help me with writing and finding out information from reliable sources,” Zofia Uzella said.

“I will use the amount of thought that goes into each article in the future.

Everything I write has to be well thought out and purposeful, which I think is a useful skill,” student Sydney Miller said.

Other schools receiving grants are Bushnell-Prairie City High School, Carlyle High School, Elk Grove High School, Englewood STEM High School in Chicago, Evanston High School, Jacksonville High School, Liberty High School, Homewood-Flossmoor High School, Metea Valley High School in Aurora, Morgan Park High School in Chicago, Normal Community High School, Prospect High School in Mount

Larry and Christine Huffman of Peru recently created an Illinois Valley Community College scholarship for adults 25 and older. Up to five recipients will be awarded $1,000 annually beginning in Fall 2022.

The Huffman’s “Helping Hands Scholarship” targets first-time attendees and those returning to college after a three-year gap. Students who are the first to attend college from their family, also known as first generation, are also eligible.

Christine (Strack) Huffman, a native of Tonica, earned an associate degree from IVCC, graduating Magna Cum Laude and being recognized as a Thomas J. McCormack Scholar.

After graduation, she was employed in IVCC’s Student Services department for six years before relocating to Kankakee. There she was employed for 29 years at The Daily Journal as executive assistant to the editor and publisher and later Director of Human Resources.

Dr. Larry Huffman served as IVCC’s Dean of Student Development in the mid-70s before moving on to Kankakee Community College, serving there as Executive Vice President for Academic and Student Services for 10 years and

then as President for 14 years.

In 2006, he was named IVCC President. In 2009, he was appointed to fill a vacancy on the IVCC board and was elected to a six-year term in 2011, during which time he served as secretary and chaired the board’s audit-fi-

nance committee.

“Larry and Chris are two of IVCC’s most loyal and giving benefactors,” said IVCC President Jerry Corcoran.

“More than that, they have become trusted friends. This scholarship is a major investment in our students and

another example of how much they believe in our mission. Bottom line, they want to help those who need it the most.”

To create an IVCC Foundation scholarship, contact Fran Brolley at 815-224-0466 or fran_brolley@ivcc.edu.

Shadow flicker, noise and spooked horses; North Stormont gets its wind turbines and the fallout that was expected.

Read the real stories about the shadow flicker and the devastation against horses and People !!

Quote from news article:

NORTH STORMONT — Potentially hundreds of rural addresses here await the impact of wind-turbine “shadow flicker” that’s already spooking horses at one property and irritating people with an unwanted peek-a-boo light-and-sound show triggered by the spinning blades of the newly commissioned Nation Rise Wind Farm, southeast of Ottawa. The effect is expected to grow more noticeable as the season shifts into fall and then winter — when the sun drops lower in the sky and shines through leafless trees. A couple of North Stormont farm households — both of which spurned offers to host turbines on their land — say they’ve already noticed it in the days since the 29-unit project received commercial operations approval in July. Cash-croppers Stephen and Rita Shane say they can see shadow flicker on their front lawn and in their living room. “It’s a certain time of the day, it’s not every day,” Rita Shane explained. Based on the developer’s shadow flicker study, the Shane place — located on Shane Rd. — will be subject to the phenomenon 158 days a year, the highest exposure in the township. “On the map, we are one of the most hit properties,” she said. “We’re right smack in the middle of (the turbines).” The strobe-like effect changes with the time of day and position of the sun in relation to several turbines visible from the farmhouse — six seen from the Shanes’ front verandah, plus three off the back of the house. “Early in the morning, the shadow flicker seems to be right behind our grain bins,” she said. “In the evening, it’s in front of the house.”

Local bars collaborate with Jelani Day’s family says Perfectly Flawed Foundation for Narcan training next step is finding answers

Family says investigation continues, police continue to follow leads as they seek answers DEREK BARICHELLO

dbarichello@shawmedia.com After Jelani Day was identified as the body found dead Sept. 4 in the Illinois River near the Route 251 bridge in Peru, his family released a statement encouraging residents help them find answers.

“We ask that you continue to pray for our family during what will be very hard days ahead,” Day’s family said in the statement. “Throughout these 30 days, our very first concern was finding Jelani, and now we need to find out #WhatHappenedToJelaniDay.” The La Salle County Coroner’s Office said Thursday the 25-year-old Illinois State University graduate student who was reported missing Aug. 25 was identified through forensic dental identification and DNA testing and comparison.

The cause of death remains unknown, pending further investigation and toxicology testing, the coroner’s office said.

Bloomington Police Public Information Officer John Fermon said Thursday authorities in Bloomington and in La Salle County are continuing their investigation and the two agencies are assisting each other, noting there are results of tests pending.

“Just because a body has been identified and located, we’re not done,” Fermon said.

In response to persistently high overdose rates throughout LaSalle and Bureau counties, two local establishments have teamed up with local community-based nonprofit The Perfectly Flawed Foundation to provide free community training for the administration of naloxone, a nasal medication used to treat known or suspected opioid overdose.

Sanctuary (125 Hennepin St., LaSalle; formerly Jim’s Lounge and recently reopened by Dani Brzozowski of LaSalle and Katie Orsini of Peru) and Jack’s Tap (129 E. Devlin St., Spring Valley) will each host a 60-minute training this October in partnership with staff at The Perfectly Flawed Foundation.

Luke Tomsha, founder of The Perfectly Flawed Foundation, believes bar staff can serve as a critical entry point to reduce overdose and improve community wellness.

“Bar staff and patrons regularly interact with are individuals who are at an elevated risk of overdose or may need help with their drug or alcohol use,” Tomsha said. “They are often the first people to lend an ear

when someone may be struggling or experiencing life challenges. Our goal is to educate staff at these establishments and help provide tools and resources they can utilize to connect people to care and guide them towards positive change.”

“I’ve done work in this sphere with Luke in the past and think the value The Perfectly Flawed Foundation provides our community is inarguable. This is an opportunity for us to meet people where they are and for us to be good stewards of the community we love and to take care of the people who make it great,” Brzozowski said.

The trainings are targeted specifically for bartenders and waitstaff and provide attendees with critical insight into how to recognize a suspected overdose and how to handle emergency care. The events are being offered at no cost and are open to the public, but registration is required.

RSVP to 125.sanctuary@gmail.com.

The training at Jack’s Tap will be held at 4 p.m. Monday, Oct. 11. The training at Sanctuary will be held at 10 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 16.

DEREK BARICHELLO

dbarichello@shawmedia.com The families of the three men killed in a May explosion near Starved Rock State Park filed a lawsuit Wednesday against the construction and blasting companies they say were responsible for the explosive devices.

According to the lawsuit filed in Cook County by the Illinois law firm of Salvi, Schostok & Pritchard, P.C., the construction and blasting companies failed to control explosives at all times and failed to perform an adequate postblast inspection. The lawsuit said the construction and blasting companies failed to prevent an explosive device from falling into someone’s hands, even after discovering one of its undetonated explosive devices 11 days after the initial detonation.

On May 6, brothers Immer Rivera Tejada, 39, and Rafael Rivera Tejada, 36, and their nephew, Guillermo Rivera Tejada, 26, of Chicago, died in an explosion along the Illinois River near Route 178 in Utica.

According to the lawsuit, the men made a campfire to cook their fish on the south bank of the river. While creating a campfire, the men found what appeared to them to be a copper pipe and used it prop up a cast iron pan to

cook their fish.

At 7:07 p.m., one of the men video-called his son to show his catch of the day before placing the fish over the fire.

A screenshot of this video call later posted by the family on social media revealed that the copper pipe used to prop up the pan on the fire, was actually, unbeknownst to the three men, an explosive rod used by nearby construction and blasting companies working on the Route 178 bridge. At 7:15 p.m., with enough exposure to the heat of the fire, the copper pipe exploded, killing the three men, according to the lawsuit.

“To a person with no knowledge of explosive devices, the object the Rivera Tejadas found near their fishing site would have looked like a harmless copper pipe,” plaintiffs’ attorney Patrick A. Salvi said in a news release.

On May 6, soon after the explosion, authorities told Shaw Media that preliminary observations were “for sure” that the material ignited had not come from the nearby demolition remnants of the Route 178 bridge, but they also said they weren’t sure where the material had come from. Authorities, including the FBI, collected a sample that day of what was reported as “a type of black powder substance” for analysis.

An investigation by Illinois State Police found that about 100 yards from

where the men discovered the explosive device was where construction and blasting companies had used these same explosive devices, known as linear shaped charges, during the March 18 detonation of the former Route 178 bridge.

The investigation further revealed that 11 days after the March 18 detonation of the bridge, these same construction and blasting companies found an explosive device that did not detonate as planned during the March 18 detonation. The construction and blasting companies did not report this finding to any regulatory body. Rather, a second explosive device remained unaccounted for until the three men found it May 6.

Several items were collected from the scene of the May 6 explosion where the three men were killed, according to Salvi’s law firm. Chemical testing performed by the FBI revealed that soil from the explosion site as well as clothing from one of the victims tested positive for the explosive compound used by the construction and blasting companies.

On the death certificates of the three men, the documents say that the injuries occurred standing near a heat source where an explosion occurred.

The items of evidence collected tested positive for the highly explosive RDX.

“This explosive matches the commercial explosives utilized during the scheduled demolition of the steel truss portion of the old Route 178 bridge on 03/18/2021,” attorneys said in the lawsuit.

The three men each leave behind a family, including seven minor children total who range in age from 3 years old to 15 years old, according to the law firm.

“While nothing will ease the heartbreak their wives and children are grappling with after this immense loss, we hope this lawsuit will prevent similar senseless tragedies from occurring in the future,” Salvi said.

After the explosion, La Salle County Coroner Richard Ploch issued a news release saying it would be “a while before we find out,” the nature of the material that caused the explosion. The county issued no further releases.

Authorities had ruled out criminal activity immediately.

D Construction, Gillan Construction and Orica USA were listed in the lawsuit. Messages were left with the companies late Thursday afternoon, but none had returned comment. The Illinois Department of Transportation, which contracted the companies but is not named in the suit, didn’t return immediate comment.

Panthers finish fourth in Tri-County Conference Golf Meet BRIAN HOXEY

For Shaw Media PONTIAC – Putnam County placed fourth in the Tri-County Conference Golf Meet on Tuesday, Sept 21.

Roanoke-Benson’s 348, led by the 1-2 punch of champ DJ Norman (74) and second-place Luke Sauder (80), was 15 strokes better than runner-up and defending champion Seneca (363).

Dwight (370) was third followed by Putnam County (405), Midland (408), Marquette (414), Henry-Senachwine (420) and Woodland (432).

Panthers’ junior Lucas Wiesbrock fired a 93 to tie for eighth, with Chris Uzella (97), Logan Keesee (106) and Miles Walder (109) contributing counting scores for PC. “I was most happy with my consistency, especially starting on the back nine having not ever played it before,” said Wiesbrock, who had eight bogeys on the first nine holes. “I started kind of slow on the front, then put together a string of pars before, unfortunately, finishing up with a triple-bogey. Overall, I felt I putted fairly well, and it saved me on more than one occasion.”

Henry was paced by Ayden Malavolti’s 96 ahead of Mason Johnson

FALL TROUT SEASON

Fall trout season opens Oct. 16 in Illinois

The 2021 Illinois Fall Trout Fishing Season will open Saturday, Oct. 16, at 59 ponds, lakes and streams throughout the state.

An early opportunity at select trout sites — the Fall Catch-and-Release Fishing Season — will open Saturday, Oct. 2. No trout may be kept during the catch and release fishing period, but anglers can keep trout after the opening of the regular season beginning Oct. 16.

The Illinois Catchable Trout Program is funded by those who use the program through the sale of Inland Trout Stamps. The Illinois Department of Natural Resources stocks more than 80,000 rainbow trout each year in bodies of water where trout fishing is permitted during the fall season. An additional 80,000 trout are stocked for the spring season, which begins each April.

For the 2021 fall trout season, no trout may be taken from any of the stocked sites until the season opens at 5 a.m. Oct. 16. During the season, the daily catch limit is five trout.

The fall trout season offers opportunities for families to get outdoors and enjoy fishing. Resources are available for Taking Kids Fishing at https:// www.ifishillinois.org/Kids_Fishing/ kidsfishing.html.

All anglers — including those who intend to release fish caught before Oct. 16 — must have an Illinois fishing license and Inland Trout Stamp which are available at IDNR license and permit locations, including many bait shops, sporting goods stores and other retail outlets. Check the IDNR website for locations at https://www.exploremoreil.com/agentlocator Fishing licenses and trout stamps can be purchased by using a credit

card online via the IDNR website at https://www.exploremoreil.com/ For information about all site regulations, anglers should contact individual sites that will be stocked with catchable-size trout. Not all sites open at 5 a.m. on opening day. Anglers are

reminded to check the opening time of their favorite sites prior to the open date.

For more information on trout seasons and other Illinois fishing opportunities, check the website at www. ifishillinois.org.

Hank’s Farm Restaurant buffet a tempting delight When we were looking for a nice place to treat the dads in our family on Father’s Day, we knew right where to go: Hank’s Farm Restaurant just outside Ottawa.

While it may be a mystery to some in the Illinois Valley, the secret’s out with your Mystery Diner. There’s plenty of good eats at Hank’s.

Hank’s is located just three miles east of Ottawa, a quick drive on Interstate 80 from anywhere in the Illinois Valley at exit 93 right off Route 71.

Hank’s appropriately is named Farm Restaurant, because it occupies an old dairy barn. It’s a rustic setting nestled alongside a pond with an assortment of animals, including geese, chickens, ducks, miniature horses, and even peacocks, roaming the grounds.

There’s also a gift shop outside the dining hall for shoppers to explore before or after a meal.

But we came here for the food, and we didn’t go away disappointed.

Hank’s has a complete menu of items to choose from, which we found tasty on our previous stop here. But we came for the brunch this time and dove right in.

There is an endless spread for the buffet, starting with miscellaneous salads such as pea salad, pasta salad, cottage cheese and fresh fruit.

Next up, they offered brunch entrees, including fresh salmon, French toast sticks, biscuits and gravy, sausage patties, two different samplings of scrambled eggs and eggs Benedict. I think I tried each one.

I chose a small piece of German chocolate cake, a slice of pumpkin pie and a chocolate doughnut hole, all personal favorites.

I know the two dads in our

party were very satisfied with their Father’s Day meal. We’ll be back.

Buffet prices are $19.99 for adults, $10 for ages 5 to 10, and $3 for ages 2 to 4. There is a 3% surcharge, charged by a third-party to help cover the costs of paying by credit card.

The family-run restaurant prides itself on the warm,

inviting atmosphere. The building accommodates private parties, and has an outdoor gazebo for small gatherings.

Takeout is also available and became a staple during the pandemic. Reservations for its Sunday brunch are highly encouraged.
