The Peru Kohl’s is on the list of 400 stores that will be adding a Sephora at Kohl’s this year.

Sephora at Kohl’s features a 2,500-square-foot shop that is a “fully immersive beauty experience that mimics the look and feel of a freestanding Sephora,” according to a press release. The shop will carry an assortment of makeup, skin care, hair and fragrance brands.

Trained beauty advisers will offer personalized beauty consultation and assistance finding products, while testing and discovery zones will offer new products.

Sephora at Kohl’s carries brands such as Rare Beauty, NARS, Charlotte Tilbury, Kiehl’s, Giorgio Armani, Olaplex, Clinique and Sephora Collection.

This spring, six new beauty brands will join including Murad, Clarins, Jack Black, Living Proof, Versace and Voluspa.

A total of 200 Sephora at Kohl’s locations opened in 2021. The addition of 400 stores brings the Sephora at Kohl’s location total to 600 with a goal of 850 by 2023.

The shop at the Peru Kohl’s, 5253 State Route 251, should be open by the end of the year.

Nina’s Market expands to next door

The Peru Kohl’s is on the list of 400 stores that will be adding a Sephora at Kohl’s this year.

Previously, the Mexican restaurant was located in the back of the building with the grocery store occupying the front portion. The move next door allows for more dining space.

Sunfield in Ottawa extends hours

Sunfield Restaurant, 2754 Columbus St., Ottawa, will soon extend its weekend hours.

Starting this weekend, Sunfield will be open until 8 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, according to a Facebook post.

The restaurant will continue to close at 3 p.m. on other days.

Ottawa Credit Union opens new building

Financial Plus Credit Union opened its new facility Tuesday at Jefferson and Walnut streets in Ottawa.

The 34,000-square-foot, two-story building is more than double the size of its old building at 800 Chestnut St.

Credit Union officials said the building is designed for a better member experience, streamlined service, operational efficiencies and space for staff and future growth.

With the new facility opening, the old building and drive-up will be closed and scheduled for demolition to accommodate additional parking for the new building, according to a social media post on the credit union’s page.

HENNEPIN

Marquis announces 873-acre expansion Expansion adds a mile of riverfront, direct access to I-180 SHAW MEDIA The Marquis Industrial Complex announced an 873-acre expansion of its complex located in Hennepin.

The land acquisition will add to the adjoining 2,500 acres surrounding the Marquis Energy Ethanol Plant and add a mile of riverfront access, four miles of rail, and direct access to Interstate 180 on-ramps and off-ramps. The former Hennepin steel mill site is already primed for large-scale hydrogen projects having a dual service feed with 82 megawatts, 138,000-volt electrical lines, additional natural gas capacity, and pore

space for carbon storage. This site expands the infrastructure available at the BioEnergy Carbon Capture and Storage project that Marquis announced last fall.

The Marquis Industrial Complex will serve as the future home for several low and zero-carbon businesses including an announced soy crush facility, blue hydrogen facility, and blue nitrogen facility, as well as the 120 million gallons per year corn to sustainable aviation fuel and renewable diesel facility announced earlier this month.

The Marquis Industrial Complex will be the first low and zero-carbon hydrogen hub benefiting from its on-site Carbon Capture facility allowing for the collection, isolation, compression, and sequestration of carbon, thereby enabling the production of ultralow carbon products.

Jelani Day case at 6 months: Still open, Peru chief says As the Jelani Day investigation passes the six-month mark, Peru police say the investigation is active and ongoing and remind members of the public the tip line remains open.

Peru Police Chief Bob Pyszka said Friday he has fielded a fresh batch of queries as the case reaches the half-year mark. The case, he said, has by no means been forgotten.

“Peru Police Department and the Jelani Day Joint Task Force are exhaustively pursuing every lead and employing every available tool to ensure that no stone remains unturned,” he said.

Last week, he said, Peru and La Salle police, state police, La Salle County Sheriff’s Office and Bloomington police met with Day’s family to provide a case update and “ensure that communication channels remain open.”

“As our investigation continues, we ask the public to contact the task force at 1-800-CALL-FBI with any new information they may have,” Pyszka said. “No tip is too small.”

Also this week, Day’s case inspired an Illinois Senate measure that would amend the state’s Missing Person Identification Act by requiring a coroner or medical examiner in the state to ask the FBI for help if they cannot identify a body

Peru Police Chief Bob Pyszka said Friday he has fielded a fresh batch of queries as the Jelani Day case reaches the half-year mark. The case, he said, has by no means been forgotten. within 72 hours.

Day, a graduate student at Illinois State University, was reported missing Aug. 25 after failing to return messages from a professor and family. Subsequent investigation determined Day was last seen the morning of Aug. 24 at a retail establishment near the intersection of Veterans Parkway and General Electric Road in Bloomington.

STANDARD FIRE DEPT.

Law enforcement agencies conducted ground and aerial searches following Day’s disappearance. His body was found Sept. 4 in the Illinois River in Peru, and was identified Sept. 23. The La Salle County Coroner’s Office has said Day’s cause of death was drowning with no signs of struggle, but Peru police have confirmed the investigation continues into how he may have drowned.

A Spring Valley man was sentenced by Judge James Andreoni last week to three years in prison on burglary charges.

Jerry J. Lewis, 60, was found guilty of class 2 felony burglary as a result of an Oct. 10 incident in Spring Valley.

Officers spoke to the owner of the property who told them someone had broken the glass door of their business and stole a television from the wall. The investigation by the Spring Valley Police Department led to Lewis who admitted he threw a rock through the window, entered the business, stole the television, and sold it.

Lewis was prosecuted by First Assistant State’s Attorney Tom Briddick; and he was represented by Public Defender Ray Nolasco.

University of Illinois Extension invites local youth to participate in a Cover Crops Workshop from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. March 22 at IVCC in Rooms CTC 124 and 125.

University of Illinois Extension to offer cover crop workshop SHAW MEDIA University of Illinois Extension invites local youth to participate in a Cover Crops Workshop from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, March 22, at IVCC in Rooms CTC 124 and 125.

This training is for all youth in Bureau, LaSalle, Marshall and Putnam counties ages 8-18 that are interested in learning the basics of cover crops.

All 4-H community club members who are enrolled in the cover crops project area are strongly encouraged to attend.

Daryle Wragge, former FFA teacher and University of Illinois Program Coordinator of Ag and Natural Resources, will present to the group. To register, go to go.illinois.edu/4hcovercrops as space is limited.

Cover crops aren’t just for large scale farmers. They are being used by everyone, including home gardeners, to improve their soil profile and help with water retention.

Participants will learn about these

advantages as well as others through a cover crops demonstration. They will leave with a “starter” container to observe growth at home and informational handouts to reference.

Enrolled 4-H members will receive information to help guide their cover crops fair project. This is a class to take if you wish to get started in growing cover crops on your own land, no matter how large or small.

Currently, policy requires that masks will be required and social distancing will be practiced. If protocols regarding these practices change before the presentation date, registered attendees will be notified of the changes ahead of time.

The University of Illinois Extension Office looks forward to offering this new topic to local youth and hopes to have all four counties represented.

If you have questions or need more information, call the University of Illinois Extension Bureau, LaSalle, Marshall, Putnam Unit Office at 815-2240889.

and BETH HUNDSDORFER Capitol News Illinois

Are units at Pontiac prison going to be closed, maybe taking jobs with them?

The governor’s office said it’s only in discussion.

Three lawmakers from Central Illinois and three from Southern Illinois, all Republicans, signed a Feb. 11 letter to Gov. JB Pritzker and Rob Jeffreys, director of the Illinois Department of Corrections, asking both about the future of the prisons in Pontiac and Vandalia.

“Due to recent transfers of significant numbers of inmates out of the Pontiac and Vandalia Correctional Centers, there is significant concern in these communities about the future of those facilities,” the letter read. “As both of these correctional centers serve as some of the largest employers in their respective regions, any changes to staffing or inmate population levels would have a major impact on the economic health of those areas.”

The proposal, first obtained by Lee Enterprises, called for closing Pontiac’s medium security unit in mid-March, to be followed by closing two additional cell houses later this year, reducing

The proposal drew fire last week when a group of lawmakers demanded information in a letter signed by, among others, state Sen. Jason Barickman of Bloomington (pictured) and state Reps. Dan Brady of Normal and Thomas Bennett of Pontiac. inmate capacity by nearly two-thirds.

Under the proposed plan, Pontiac would close the medium security unit and go from 1,740 beds to 642 beds, according to Capitol News Illinois. Pontiac currently houses 1,144 inmates, including a unit that houses seriously

mentally ill individuals. Vandalia Correctional Center currently has a capacity of 1,001 and would be reduced to 401 inmates under the plan.

Both facilities face maintenance costs, including $3.8 million at Pontiac.

The reduction of beds at Vandalia will

save the state $12 million, according to plan estimates.

But a spokeswoman for the governor said the document was “a draft plan” assembled for discussion within the agency.

“It was not presented to the Governor’s Office for final approval because it is a draft that is expected to be updated after more discussions,” Press Secretary Jordan Abudayyeh said in a statement. “The Department is always interested in considering new ideas to better serve their population and this draft plan is an attempt to spur discussion about ways to improve services.”

State Sen. Sue Rezin, R-Morris, said she’ll be watching, anyway.

“It is concerning whenever any state facility is rumored to be potentially downsizing as they are both a source of good-paying jobs and are economic drivers for their region,” Rezin said. “I have spoken with other members of the Senate Republicans impacted by this potential move, which has prompted our caucus to send a formal letter requesting additional information from the Pritzker administration.”

The proposal drew fire last week when a group of lawmakers demanded

Pontiac units closing? Not so fast, governor says

River Valley Players announces stars of upcoming production of ‘Freaky Friday’

• PONTIAC

Continued from page 11 information in a letter signed by, among others, state Sen. Jason Barickman of Bloomington and state Reps. Dan Brady of Normal and Thomas Bennett of Pontiac. (Three more legislators from the Vandalia area also signed on.)

The lawmakers asked IDOC for details such as the number of inmate transfers from the facilities, whether the inmates will return and what plans are in place for the two facilities. They also requested an in-person meeting.

“We understand that there are significant deferred maintenance needs at both facilities and that some shuffling of population levels may be temporarily necessary to make needed repairs and upgrades,” they wrote.

“We are, however, seriously concerned about the administration’s plans for the future of these facilities.”

The proposal also drew ire from AFSCME Council 31 – the union that represents IDOC officers.

“The department began moving offenders out of Pontiac last week with no advance notice to the union, the employees or the individuals who were moved,” said Anders Lindall, public affairs director for AFSCME

SHAW MEDIA River Valley Players has announced Ella Bergfeld and Trisha Bagby will headline the upcoming production of “Freaky Friday.”

Tickets will be available starting March 2 at rvphenry.org and 309-238-7878.

Bergfeld, a senior at Henry-Senachwine High School, will play the role of teenage Ellie as Bagby will make her debut on the RVP stage playing the role of Ellie’s mother.

“Freaky Friday” is the story of a teenager and her mother who magically swap bodies and have just 24 hours to get things back to normal. They must work together to solve the mystery of their inverted identifies.

By spending a day in each other’s shoes, mother and daughter come to appreciate each other in ways they never could have before.

Bergfeld lives in Henry with her mom, dad and sister and has appeared on stage in numerous RVP productions including Eileen Sherwood in “Wonderful Town.”

Her most notable productions include playing Cinderella in Rodgers and Hammerstein’s “Cinderella” at Corn Stock

Council 31, to Capitol News Illinois.

Lindall said the union subsequently received notice of IDOC’s intent to reduce populations at Vandalia and Pontiac, with a target date of March 16 for the first phase with additional unit closures to be completed by the summer.

Lindall said the union began to hear rumors early last week about possible changes at Pontiac and met with IDOC officials on Feb. 9, during which IDOC denied that possible changes may be forthcoming.

“On Wednesday, seven buses arrived at the facility and began to empty out the medium security units.

Only on Friday did they inform us of their plan to close the MSU that they earlier denied,” Lindall said.

In response to questions, Lindsay wrote in an email that “the department has not started moving people in order to reduce the populations in these facilities.”

“This is an unacceptable breach of trust from IDOC management and not the basis of productive labor relations,” Lindall said. “Especially given the history of closure threats at both Pontiac and Vandalia, these new changes introduce uncertainty and instability that hurt employee morale and the lack of truthfulness in presenting them make union members question whether they can rely on management’s commitments.”

BOYS BASKETBALL: CLASS 1A ST. BEDE REGIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP – PUTNAM COUNTY 66, MIDLAND 51

Putnam County claims first title since 2013-14

Mattingly and McDonald key 14-6 run for Panthers in fourth quater to take control of a back-and-forth contest

By DON BALDIN

Shaw Media correspondent PERU – In front of a packed house, the No. 3-seeded Putnam County boys basketball team used a huge second half, outscoring No. 2 Midland by 20 points, to take home the Class 1A St. Bede Regional title with a 66-51 victory.

“In the second half, we came out more disciplined and played better defense,” Putnam County coach Harold Fay said. “We stopped trying to jump passes and let it come to us. Offensively, we moved the ball well and got good shots and were able to knock them down. Playing in this kind of atmosphere and against a team as good as Midland, it’s a big win for us.”

The game began with Midland jumping out to an early four-point lead before Putnam County’s Austin Mattingly, who scored a game-high 26 points, went on a personal eight-point run to vault the Panthers to an 8-4 advantage.

Putnam County built its advantage to 12-9 on a pair of Jackson McDonald buckets before the Timberwolves’ Brett Smith, who scored a team-high

13 points, finished the opening quarter with a layup and 3-pointer at the horn to give Midland a 14-12 lead.

Putnam County tied the game at 16 on layups from Andrew Pyszka and Drake Smith, before the Timberwolves scored the next eight on 3s from Ryan Riddell and T.J. Guthman and a deuce from Brady Hattan to build a 24-18 lead with three minutes left in the half.

The Panthers cut the lead to 27-22 at halftime.

Putnam County quickly tied the game as McDonald, who scored 20 points, dropped in a layup and Pyszka drained a 3 ball.

The teams exchanged the lead in the third quarter with Mattingly leading the way for the Panthers with nine points and Midland answered with a balanced scoring attack to bring the score to 43-37 in Putnam County’s favor heading into the final period.

The Timberwolves came out with the first four points of the fourth with a 3 from Guthman to bring the score to 43-40, but Mattingly answered with a 3 of his own.

The teams traded hoops until the Panthers broke the game open with a 14-6 run, led by Mattingly and McDonald, to put the Panthers up 66-48 before the game concluded with Putnam County leaving with a 66-51 win and its first regional title since 2013-14.

“Not to take anything away from Putnam County, who played a great game tonight, but this team usually plays with more energy than we did tonight and it cost us,” Midland coach Allen Hattan said. “We missed some shots and had a few turnovers and to their credit, they took advantage of them and then it kind of snowballed on us and got away from us tonight.”

The Panthers (20-14) advance to the Woodland Sectional where they will play Chicago Fenger at 7 p.m. Wednesday.

CLASS 1A ST. BEDE REGIONAL SEMIFINALS: PUTNAM COUNTY 46, DWIGHT 42

Panthers knock off Dwight in regional semifinals

By KEVIN CHLUM

kchlum@shawmedia.com No. 3 Putnam County held off No. 5 Dwight 46-42 in the semifinala of the Class 1A St. Bede Regional on Wednesday, Feb. 23.

The win propelled the Panthers into the regional championship game on Friday.

The Panthers trailed by six points at halftime, but quickly grabbed the momentum in the third quarter.

Chad Olson notched a three-point play on the first possession of the half and Drake Smith sank a 3-pointer on an assist from Jackson McDonald to tie it up with 5:11 left in the frame.

Wyatt Grimshaw hit a pair of free throws and McDonald added a bucket for PC. “We were being patient and not turning the ball over against their full court press,” Putnam County coach Harald Fay said. “We didn’t get in a hurry, we brought it up, got set and attacked it. We were able to reverse, drop down to a big and he was able to get a look or kick to the other side for a shot.”

The Panthers held the Trojans scoreless for the first six minutes of the third.

“We were just trying to go with the flow of the game,” Fay said about PC’s physical play in the second half. “It was called physical. We got a few fouls early and I was worried we were going to have to stay in a zone, and it probably wouldn’t have been good for us, but we were able to clean it up a little bit and play hard and defend better.”

Dwight managed just three points in the third quarter as its 27-21 halftime lead turned into a 31-30 deficit going to the fourth.

“Normally, we’re good with physical,” Dwight coach Jeremy Connor said. “Our big guys are good, physical players and we like that. It’s just the physicality went their way more than ours. Usually, we want a physical game. It just didn’t work like that

Putnam County’s Austin Mattingly (10) pulls up in the lane to shoot a basket as Dwight’s Landon Brown (13) defends in a Class 1A St. Bede Regional semifinal Wednesday, at St. Bede. tonight.”

The teams traded buckets early in the fourth quarter before the Panthers took the lead for good on a steal and layup by Austin Mattingly with 5:18 left.

McDonald followed with a threepoint play off another Dwight turnover to give PC a 38-34 lead.

The Trojans pulled within one twice on 3-pointers by Wyatt Thompson, but the Panthers held on with 3-of-4 free

throws and a Grimshaw bucket in the final 2:13.

Putnam County started the game strong, grabbing an 8-3 lead and holding a 12-7 advantage with 3:16 left in then first.

However, the Trojans went on a 7-0 run to take a 14-12 lead and the game went to the second tied at 14.

Putnam County took a 20-19 lead on a three-point play by Mattingly, but Dwight closed the second on a 8-1 run

to take a six-point halftime lead.

“At that time we were taking care of the ball and were taking smart shots,” Connor said. “We were getting the ball inside and were getting a lot of good looks when we went inside and out.

Our big guys did well down low at the end of the first half and got some easy buckets.”

McDonald finished with 16 points for PC, while Mattingly added 12.

Hall, Putnam County agree to football cooperative

By BECKY KRAMER

bkramer@shawmedia.com A football cooperative between Hall and Putnam County high schools was approved by both school boards and their conferences for a two-year agreement.

Hall’s school board was told Putnam County will

have 12 or more students joining the 2022-2023 football team. A couple months ago, Putnam County surveyed students in multiple grades to see what interest there was in participating in football.

There were 17 students from eighth to 11th grades interested in playing football next year and a large number

of younger students showing interest as well.

Hall Superintendent Jesse Bryant had previously explained to the board the cooperative would play in Class 3A or 4A because of the additional 200 to 250 students from Putnam County that would be counted in the total number of students.

Members of the Hall football team jog off the field against Orion Aug. 27.
