Chief Senachwine DAR Chapter continues membership drive Daughters of the American Revolution chapter seeking interested individuals Shaw Local News Network The Chief Senachwine Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution is continuing its Summer Membership Drive and invites all women interested in researching their colonial ancestry to supply information on their first three to four generations.

The process requires supplying as many as possible names, birth dates, death dates and locations known about one’s parents, grandparents and even one’s great-grandparents.

The group believes that often an interested party might believe that her parent, grandparent, or great-grandparent arrived in the U.S. in the 1850s or 1900s, too late to trace to a Revolutionary ancestor. Often the “late-comer” has married someone with roots tracing back to Revolutionary times and the patriotic connection can be proved.

The DAR national motto of all

The Chief Senachwine Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution is continuing its Summer Membership Drive and invites all women interested in researching their colonial ancestry to supply information on their first three or four generations. chapters is God, Home and Country and special interests are Education, Historic Preservation and Patriotism.

There are nearly 190,000 DAR members in 3,000 chapters around the world, including 14 countries and one territory. The members devote thousands of hours in service to their communities. Since its founding in 1890, DAR has admitted more than

one million members.

Based in Henry, the Chief Senachwine Chapter includes members from Henry, Putnam, Princeton, Mineral, Lacon, Chillicothe, Wyoming, Wyanet and beyond.

Those interested are asked to supply any information regarding immediate ancestors by calling 815-4379111 for information.

PCHS to initiate Long-Range Facilities Analysis Analysis scheduled to take place over 12-month period Shaw Local News Network Putnam County Community Unit School District 535 has initiated a Long-Range Facilities Analysis.

Through analysis, this assessment will aim to establish a clear understanding of the current state of all district school facilities and will establish the basis of understanding for ongoing facility planning efforts.

At the June 21 Board of Education meeting, the Board voted unanimously in favor of entering into a con-

tract with Cadence Consulting to initiate the District’s Long-Range Facilities Analysis process.

“PC #535 has an immense pride in its school buildings because of their history and the many memories made in the classrooms and other learning spaces,” Putnam County CUSD 535 Superintendent Clayton Theisinger said.

In support of the Board and District administration, Principal of Cadence Consulting Michael A. Hacker will facilitate the Long-Range Facility Analysis process.

Over the next 12 months, this effort will include facility data collection, organization and consultant coordi-

nation. There also will be ongoing opportunities for staff and community engagement to understand needs and preferences in regard to facilities and learning environments.

“This partnership with Cadence Consulting and the Long-Range Facilities Analysis is an opportunity for the District to better understand what is needed to provide the best learning environments for all students while ensuring a continued pride in the schools,” Theisinger said.

For information on the selection of Cadence Consulting or the planned Long-Range Facilities Analysis process, call Theisinger at 815-882-2800, ext. 5.

U of I Extension Master Gardeners to offer online training courses Shaw Local News Network For 46 years, University of Illinois Extension Master Gardeners have measured success by gardens planted, insects identified, produce harvested and the millions of hours volunteers have logged by helping others learn to grow.

This year, the master gardeners will offer two online training options including self-paced or hybrid with live sessions.

“Our online training is a great opportunity for folks who need more flexibility to participate,” State Master Gardener Specialist Candice Hart said. “Both options have self-paced components that can be completed at your own pace.”

Both training options may be taken from the comfort of home. Participants will be introduced to in-depth horticulture content through 13 modules including soils and fertilizers, plant diseases, entomology, pest management organic gardening and more.

The training includes videos, a manual, reading materials and quizzes. A strong internet connection is highly recommended. The Henry office has a computer lab available

Shaw Local News Network The Chief Senachwine Daughters of the American Revolution Chapter has received news that its members were awarded recognition certificates during Continental Congress, the national conference held from June 29 through July 3 in Washington, D.C. The chapter was recognized by the North Central Division America 250 Committee for “Most Constitution Week Minutes or Preamble Read” and for “Most Constitution Week News Articles.”

The chapter invited Tom Ashby of rural Bradford to present a program as a uniformed revolutionary war soldier who gave his patriot’s wartime history. Ashby’s appearance received an award for its press coverage under the title of “Revolutionary War Soldier Visits Chief Senachwine Chapter Meeting.”

At another meeting, North Central

Division rewarded the chapter for “Bringing Your Patriot to Life at a Chapter Meeting” when members shared information about their patriots.

North Central Division gave recognition to Nancy Gillfillan, literacy promotion chair for the Chief Senachwine Chapter, for acknowledging National Family Literacy Day with a proclamation signed by Lacon Mayor John Wabel. The proclamation underscored the importance of literacy and the involvement of parents in reading to their children.

A final award came from the North Central Division Membership Committee, citing zero member resignations or drops within the Chief Senachwine Chapter.

DAR members aim to promote education, historical preservation and patriotism in their local communities and through state and national projects.

NEWS BRIEFS Henry United Presbyterian Church to host 13-week GriefShare session

The Henry United Presbyterian Church is launching a new ministry called GriefShare. It is a 13-week session guided to help those who are suffering from the loss of a loved one.

In the event of loss the griever needs ongoing support and encouragement lasting months or perhaps longer. This program offers that support from others with similar situations.

The program includes videos of how others have been helped by the program, a discussion time to review the video and a workbook with scriptures to further understand how to work through their grief.

Everyone responds differently to losing a loved one whether it be a spouse, a child, sister, brother or a parent. The makeup of our human nature is complicated and our culture has groomed us in how we should react to grief and not always in our best interest.

The GriefShare program is an opportunity to learn how to grieve in a healthy manner, what’s normal and what helps the grieving process. The support group is a safe environment where one can leave behind more restrictive traditional behavior and

‘Government at its best,’ officials say of effort to save taxpayers’ money

By TOM COLLINS

tcollins@shawmedia.com State-of-the-art computers. Experienced 911 dispatchers. Room to expand. And the partner cities built it without raising taxes a dime.

On Wednesday, a ceremonial ribbon-cutting was conducted outside the $1.5 million facility housing Illinois Valley Regional Dispatch, formed in 2016 and serving as the dispatch center for most police, fire and EMS in the Illinois Valley. Partner agencies include Peru, La Salle, Oglesby and Mendota. Associate members include Spring Valley and the fire/EMS agencies of Utica and Earlville.

“You just need to know this: This facility is equipped for the future, the employees are trained to serve your communities and this center will not fail the residents of our 911 region,” said Mendota Police Chief Greg Kellen, IVRD chairman.

It was a long time coming.

Scott Anderson – sanderson@shawmedia.com

The Illinois Valley Regional Dispatch Center celebrated its grand opening with a ribbon-cutting July 13 in Peru. Gathered for the ceremony were (from left) Jena Martin, dispatcher; Doug Bernabei, building and grounds chairman; Greg Kellen, Mendota Police chief; Brandon Miller, executive director; and Rachel Sienkiewicz, dispatcher. The facility will serve the communities of La Salle, Peru, Oglesby, Utica, Spring Valley, Oglesby, Mendota and Earlville 911 dispatch.

Lt. Doug Bernabei of Peru police said discussions of a combined dispatch center started 18 years ago.

Things really took off when, around 2011, the partner agencies realized the state would eventually require the regionalization of 911 services.

Springfield did not disappoint. In 2015, a law was passed mandating the regionalization of 911 systems across

the state.

“The legislation essentially dictated that La Salle-Peru, Oglesby and Mendota could be assigned to some 911 center somewhere by the state, or we could come together to set our own destiny,” Bernabei said.

An ad hoc committee was formed and the partner agencies found a few interested neighbors including

Spring Valley, Utica Fire and EMS and Earlville Fire and EMS. In 2016, intergovernmental agreements were signed.

“IVRD is a product of the Illinois Valley working together for the benefit of all,” Oglesby Mayor Dom Rivara said.

Dispatcher Jena Martin takes a 911 call during the grand opening at the new Illinois Valley Regional Dispatch Center on July 13 in Peru.

• DISPATCH CENTER Continued from page 11

The transition wasn’t easy, however. Bernabei readily acknowledged some “growing pains.” Telecommunicators spent six years working out of a 100-foot room and then a garage in the Peru Police Department – “Absolute warriors,” he praised them – and much of this as the nation grappled with the COVID-19 pandemic.

The board of directors set out a long-term capital improvement plan for a state-of-the-art 911 communications center and to build it without raising taxes. The logical site was the old Peru Police Department on U.S. 6 and West Street, which became available when Peru launched a law enforcement center in 2020.

Kmetz and Associates of La Salle who worked with staff to design a “complete gutting” of the old station and Vissering Construction in Streator oversaw what Bernabei described as “a remarkable job transforming frankly an old 1950s-era car dealership into a 21st century 911 center, one that I believe is second to none certainly in all of downstate Illinois.”

The call center for the dispatchers will have room for four on-duty workers with the future ability to expand to six, if the need continues to grow.

The final cost came to $1.5 million.

By consolidating, however, Bernabei estimated local communities have collectively saved $5 million.

“I would respectfully suggest that this is government at its best,” he said.

Youth Service Bureau in need of foster families

By MICHAEL URBANEC

murbanec@shawmedia.com The organization that works with police and DCFS to ensure children in dangerous situations have a safe place to sleep is currently searching for new foster families.

Youth Service Bureau of Illinois Valley currently has 11 foster families, many shy of what’s needed. Of that 11, only three can take in a youth on a crisis basis.

Jami Valenzuela, who helps foster families obtain their licenses, said there’s need for foster families all around, but finding people to take in teenagers on a temporary, 21-day basis is difficult.

“Not many people want to take in teenagers because they have it in their head that they’re hard to deal with, they’re going to steal, you know, they’re too hard to handle,” Valenzuela said. “That’s not really the case.”

Community Services Supervisor Lindsay Rossi said the agency needs homes for all ages, though, for children ages 8 through 18. It can be a hard age range to place, Rossi said, because families with younger kids will want to foster children around their own kids’

ages or younger.

Rossi said for the older children, YSB is hoping for empty-nesters or people who have wanted to help out and can now that their own children are grown.

“A lot of people have questions, like whether or not the kids need their own room,” Rossi said. “They do have to have their own bed and their own space, but they don’t necessarily need to have their own room.”

Rossi said children need a place with their own bed, food, clothing, and shelter with a family able to provide those things. While there is a reimbursement for families that take in a child, that money is only paid out once per month.

Valenzuela said there’s also questions about families with working parents, especially when it comes to crisis homes. She said Youth Service Bureau does work with families on providing transportation and the agency also sits in the office with the child until the parent can get off work.

“We do a lot of collaborating and coordinating with them to make things as easy on them as possible,” Valenzuela said.

a screening process as part of obtaining their license. Prospective foster parents must be 21 years or older and may be single or married, and must be stable, law-abiding citizens that rent or own their own home. The room the child stays in must be at least 40 square feet. Landlord approval is required for those that don’t own their home.

Families also have to undergo a physical and a TB skin test. A copy of their most recent school physical is sufficient for school-age children. Cats and dogs must be up to date on rabies and other vaccinations. It also is against the law to smoke inside of a foster home.

Foster parents must have a valid driver’s license and proof of auto insurance so they can provide transportation to school, medical appointments, counseling, court and other activities.

“We want families that have a support system, whether it’s family or friends, so if the kid is sick at school or something along those lines, there’s an alternative to pick them up,” Valenzuela said. “Fostering is very hard if you don’t have that support or someone who can help you out, even with your own kids.”

Rossi said the workers at Youth Service Bureau are on-call 24 hours per day, so if there’s an emergency that needs assistance, families can call and someone will be in touch with them immediately.

There is a 27-hour training that takes place over Zoom with other foster parents, along with traditional trainings that involve items such as trauma, discipline and working with the children’s birth families.

“It always scares people because they don’t want people knowing where they live and sometimes they’re nervous but we have not truly had any threats or violence,” Valenzuela said.

“Nobody’s showed up at someone’s house. We don’t give out their information but families do eventually find out sometimes.”

Rossi said the goal is always to get children back home with their parents.

Those interested in becoming foster parents can do so by going to ysbiv. org, where there is more information available.

Youth Service Bureau of Illinois Valley’s service area stretches across La Salle, Bureau, Marshall, Putnam and Stark counties.

Nick Hoot returns to DePue, wins 1100 Runabout title

By KEVIN CHLUM

kchlum@shawmedia.com DEPUE – About two decades ago, the Hoot family stopped racing in DePue. Ray Hoot suffered a bad accident in the 350 Hydro.

The Hoots finished the weekend with Ray’s son, Steve, winning the 1100 Runabout on his 18th birthday.

“Then we quit and sold everything,” said Nick Hoot, Steve’s younger brother.

This week, Nick returned to DePue, and he did so in a big way.

Hoot raced to victory in the first two heats of the 1100 Runabout on Sunday then cruised to third in the final heat to win the national championship in the Lake DePue Pro/Mod/Junior National Championships.

“The last couple years I just started racing little stock outboards,” said Nick Hoot, who placed second in J Pro the last time he raced in DePue 18 years ago.

“I just got this boat. It literally got delivered here on Monday. I did a couple test runs and did the 700 Runabout, and I got third. I came out here for the 1100 and knew what I needed to do, and I just made it happen.

“It’s unbelievable. It’s like nothing I’ve ever experienced before.”

On top of winning in his return to DePue, Hoot was racing for his father, who is battling cancer and couldn’t attend but watched the live stream online.

“I wanted to show him that I could do it and make him proud,” Nick Hoot said.

“He’s in tears.”

Hoot, who said he plans to return next year, won the first two heats then held back in the third.

“The key to any type of boat racing is getting a good start, going fast through the turns and getting out and getting clean water, and I just made it happen,” Hoot said. “I knew [going into the third heat] that I had such a lead that if I got at least third there were no questions. I didn’t want to push too hard. I backed off a little on the start and let them kind of go to make sure I was safe, and I pushed my way up to third.”

Hoot wasn’t the only racer Sunday to win the first two heats before cruising to the title with a conservative third heat.

Jerry Davids Sr. raced to wins in the first two heats of the 350 Runabout and placed fifth in the final heat to secure the title.

Local favorite Paul Bosnich III placed third in the event. He also placed third in the 250 Runabout on Saturday.

“We just didn’t seem like we could put three heats together in either race,” Bosnich said. “On Saturday, we battled

engine problems all morning. We thought we caught some luck when we broke a prop shaft through testing. It actually broke in our hands as we were ready to go in the first heat, which was lucky otherwise I would have lost my good prop for both engines. We changed some stuff, and I don’t know why, but

we were sticking pistons the first heat.

We flipped to our backup engine we haven’t run in a year. It took a little bit of time, so I didn’t have any test time. I knew going into the final heat I had to push the start if I wanted a chance at the podium, and I did and we came out third.”

On Sunday, Bosnich placed fifth in the first two heats before winning the final heat to earn a podium spot.

“Today I just didn’t get a good spot at the start, and that’s a lot of the game. I just couldn’t put myself in good position.

Again, I knew going into the third heat I needed to be there and probably win to get the podium. I just ran hard that third heat and got it in a good spot and was busting my butt to try to get first, and I finally got around Rich [Krier]. It’s tough, all these guys are very close in speed, so to be able to come from behind is tough.”

Eric Vanover won the 1100 Hydro, and John Palmquist won the final heat to come from behind to capture the 250 Hydro title.

Other winners Sunday were Brian Boyd in the 750 MH, Daniel Koschka in the 500 MH and Joe Johnson in the 850 MR. Saturday winners were Boyd in the 850 MH, Logan Sweeney in the 500 MR, Ashton Cafarelli in the 125 MR, Doug Hall in the 500 Hyrdo, Devin Huff in C Racing Runabout, Kurtis Nydahl in 350 Hydro, Michael Smith in 250 Runabout and Jason Sailer in 700 Runabout.

ILLINOIS VALLEY MEN’S GOLF CHAMPIONSHIPS

Brian Lehr edges son, Baley, Josh Gass for championship

By DON BALDIN

Shaw Local News Network correspondent OGLESBY – After seeing his son Baley Lehr win three straight Illinois Valley Men’s Golf Championships from 2018-20, Brian Lehr wondered if he was ever going to get one for himself.

On Sunday at Deer Park Golf Club, he finally did by edging out his son by two strokes.

“I asked Baley this morning, ‘Are you ever going to let me win one of these?’ ” Brian said after his victory.

Brian Lehr finished the two-day tournament at 2-under-par 140.

“The wind firmed up the greens and between the wind and the tough greens, it was tough to score out there,” Brian Lehr said. “The course was in great shape. The guys out here did a great job and the event was really run well. It feels great to finally get this win. I believe it makes us only the second father-son due to win the tournament and that is special as well.”

The course did play tough as Brian Lehr was the only player to finish the tournament’s 36 holes under par.

His son, Baley, and Josh Gass shot even par for the event while every other competitor was over par.

After day one of the IV Men’s Championship at Oak Ridge Golf Club, Doug Pinter held a slim onestroke lead at 3-under with four golfers sitting at 2-under.

That group was followed by another group of four at 1-under, which set up an exciting round two at Deer Park.

In contention to start the day at 2-under were Gass, Matthew Morse, T. J. Templeton and Craig McConville with Drake Kaufman, Jon Prescott, Brian Lehr and Ian Roach sitting at 1-under.

With these being the only men under par, it looked as though the 2022 winner would come from this group; and it did.

The top 10 finishers for the Championship Class after the Lehrs and Gass were Kenney Jones and Morse tied for fourth, Pinter in sixth, Kaufman and McConville tied for seventh, co-tournament director Mason Kimberley in ninth and Prescott and Templeton in 10th. “(Kaufman) is great kid,” Brian Lehr said of the Ottawa junior and his playing partner. “He’s very respectful and a student of the game and he hits it a ton. He is going to be a good one.”

Tom Prescott won the A Class at 2-over par followed by Paul Snook and Larry Keith tied for second, Adam Har-

Scott Lilly shot a 14-over par to win the B Class with Pat Kerchner, Rod Lowery and Blair Bickett tied for second followed by Rob Dunkel.

In C Class, David Pinney won at 23-over par, while Clayton Buffington and Paul Buffington tied for second, Rob Booker took fourth and Grant Saylor, Andres Castaneda and Cody Marks tied for fifth.

Spark Larkin won the Senior Class at 7-over par followed by Scott Wiesbrock in second, Willie Hanson and Terry Beard tied for third and Don Slusarek in fifth.

Co-tournament Director Pat Goy was thrilled with the turnout.

“Until a couple of weeks ago we had a waiting list to get in and we were able to have a full field of 172 golfers,” Goy said. “The weather was great all weekend and the golf has been very competitive. It has been, all in all, a great weekend and tournament.”
