The frigid temperatures were tough on anyone who dared to venture outside, but also created some beautiful views along the Fox River and in area parks for anyone who was able to stop and enjoy.

Plano OKs new tool to attract business

By LYLE R. ROLFE news@kendallcountynow.com The Plano City Council approved a new economic development tool to help attract new businesses to the city.

Alderman Mike Rennels introduced a resolution to implement a sales tax rebate program policy, and it was adopted by unanimous vote Jan. 11.

A similar program had been in effect, but the new one is easier to work with and understand, he said. It also complies with

state regulations, he added.

“We’re trying to make it more friendly and easier to understand to encourage new businesses to locate here,” he said.

Rennels said the program would allow the city to rebate part of the sales tax a business generates back to the business.

Although the sales tax rate in Plano is 6.75 percent, only 1 percent goes to the city, so this amount would be given back to the businesses, he said.

He said each agreement would be negotiated on its own

with the business owner or the owner of the property where the business would be located.

It could make it easier for developers to entice new tenants to locate in their projects, Rennels said.

It’s a fairly common tool used by other municipalities, he said.

He could not estimate how much the city might return over a period of time.

In other business Jan, 11, council members approved an ordinance reducing the amount of transition fees the Little Rock-

Fox Fire Protection District receives on each new home built in the city.

The fire district will now receive $1,000 per single family home, down from the prior fee of $1,593.

Other taxing bodies in the city are in the process of reviewing their fees to see how much they can be reduced.

Overall, the fees in total are being reduced by 50 percent, according to Tom Karpus, director of building, planning and zoning for Plano.

Consolidating township governments or merging them with county or local municipalities would not likely produce a significant property tax savings for Kendall County residents, according to some county and township officials.

A state task force organized by Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner issued its recommendations last week for streamlining local government across the state in an effort improve efficiency and save taxpayers money.

Among the recommendations contained in the report is a provision that would allow Illinois residents to consolidate or dissolve local units of government via referendum, while another would allow all township governments to consolidate with local municipalities having the same boundaries. The consolidations would be implemented following the passage of local referendums.

Another recommendation calls for a change in state law that would remove an existing 126-square-mile cap on the size of townships. Removing the cap would allow for the consolidation of multiple townships into single townships larger than 126 square miles.

Kendall County is comprised of nine townships. Each is responsible for overseeing a very narrow range of public services as specified under state law.

Those services include: maintenance and snow plowing of roads in unincorporated areas, assessing

SHAW MEDIA A Newark resident, Robert Winner, 36, was injured in a five-vehicle crash on Ill. Route 47 at Newark Road south of Yorkville on Jan. 14, Illinois State Police reported.

State Police said Winner was taken by Life Star helicopter to an area hospital for treatment of injuries he sustained in the crash.

According to a preliminary investigation, the crash occurred when Winner, who was driving his Honda Fit northbound on Route 47 attempting to turn left onto Newark Road, was struck from the rear by a Chevrolet Avalanche being driven northbound by Phillip Vanstone, 63, also of Newark. Winner’s vehicle was then pushed into the southbound lane of Route 47 where it collided with a semitrailer driven

by Michael Renello, 54, of Lombard. Winner’s vehicle was then forced back into the northbound lane on Route 47 and was struck by a Ford Expedition driven

by James Buck, 39, of Oakbrook.

State Police said flying debris from the collisions hit a Chevrolet Equinox being driven by Ornela Mussa, 40, of Plano.

Route 47 and Newark Road were closed for several hours following the crash.

State Police said the crash remains under investigation.

Fire districts suggested for possible consolidation • CONSOLIDATION

Oswego Township Supervisor Jim Detzler, a former Oswego Fire Protection chief and board president, said this week that merging fire districts in Kendall County could help improve fire service in rural areas.

Continued from page 1 properties for tax purposes and providing general assistance to the poor.

County Board Chairman John Shaw said he believes there is still a place for township government in the county.

“I hear stuff all the time about doing away with townships, which to me doesn’t make any sense for Kendall County,” he said.

For example, Shaw said if the county’s nine townships were eliminated, the county’s assessment office would likely assume the responsibility of handling property assessments, a task now done by township assessors. The shift, he said, would require the county to hire additional staff in its assessment office.

Elimination of township highway departments would also increase the workload on the county highway department, Shaw believes.

“People are very demanding about their roads in the townships,” Shaw said.

He said it might make sense to eliminate townships in counties with larger municipalities that overlap, but Kendall County still has a lot of unincorporated area.

“You go into Lisle or Naperville, Aurora, of course they are municipalities and they overlap,” Shaw said.

Boulder Hill presents issue

Jim Detzler, supervisor of Oswego Township, by far Kendall County’s most populous township, agreed it would make sense to consolidate townships in more densely populous counties such as DuPage where most of the county’s geographic area has annexed into a municipality.

“I think in areas of Illinois where you have township road districts of just a few miles, [consolidation] would probably be a smart thing to do,” he said.

However, Detzler said consolidation of Oswego Township into county government or the village of Oswego would probably meet with resistance due to the presence of the unincorporated Boulder Hill subdivision between Oswego and Montgomery. With a population of 8,200 according to the 2010 U.S. Census, Boulder Hill is one of the largest unincorporated communities in the nation.

Detzler noted the township road district is responsible for maintaining and plowing ap-

Shaw Media file photo

proximately 70 miles of road in the township, including about 40 miles in Boulder Hill.

The cost of maintaining the roads in Boulder Hill would likely make consolidation of the township with Oswego, Kendall County or even Montgomery highly unappealing, Detzler believes.

“Kendall County should have never approved Boulder Hill as an unincorporated development and then allowed it to get so big, but it’s done and it’s history at this point,” Detzler said, adding, “The other side of the coin is the people in Boulder Hill probably wouldn’t want to be in a town, either. They probably like things just as they are right now.”

Detzler also questioned how much the consolidation of the township would actually save residents. The township road district and township government’s combined tax rate accounted for just over 2 percent of the total amount owed on township property owners’ tax bills last year.

In 2016 the township’s total tax rate was 0.3071 cents for every $100 of equalized assessed valuation. Under that rate, the owner of a home valued at $180,000 that did not claim any available exemptions paid $184.26 in property taxes to the township last year.

“The schools are always the biggest thing on your tax bills, and I don’t know how that will ever change,” Detzler said.

He continued, “Ultimately [consolidation] could save taxpayers some money, but I don’t know without looking at it in real depth. It probably would.

But I don’t know how big an impact it would be.”

Detzler said if the county highway department were to one day assume maintenance responsibility for township roads, it would have to hire additional staff and purchase extra trucks and other equipment to maintain and plow

the additional roads.

Consolidate fire districts?

While Detzler has reservations over the consolidation of township government in Kendall County, he said he believes it could work for the many fire protection districts and police departments now serving various areas of the county.

As a former longtime Oswego Fire Protection District chief and board president, Detzler said he remains a great supporter of the county’s fire services.

However, he said, consolidation of the fire districts could potentially save taxpayers’ money while also improving fire and emergency ambulance service in rural areas of the county.

Detzler explained that smaller fire protection districts such as Newark currently can’t afford the latest fire truck or other equipment, while larger fire districts like Oswego are in a better financial position.

“If all the fire districts combined, the financial responsibility would be spread out and everyone could get an equal share of what they need in terms of equipment,” he said.

Detzler said combining police departments might also produce similar efficiencies that would save taxpayers money.

He acknowledged, however, that consolidation of local police and fire departments would result in a culture change for those agencies and, perhaps, residents would “lose some of the personal touch” they now receive from their police and fire departments.

Highway perspective

Fran Klaas, Kendall County’s highway engineer, says he believes eliminating or merging township government would not work in Kendall County.

From his perspective, Klaas says township highway departments are a vital component of local government.

“In the really urban areas where a road district or township highway department only has a few miles of road and they’re taking in millions of dollars a year, I think there is an argument for not having that,” he said.

However, in counties like Kendall that are still predominately rural, he adds, that it makes more sense to have a township.

“Township government is as close to the people as you’re going to get,” Klaas said. “You can walk in their doors and talk to them and effect the change a lot easier than you can with any other type of government.”

Klaas also said he doesn’t think consolidating or eliminating townships in Kendall County would save that much money.

“If you could imagine us, a county highway department, taking over nine townships and all of the roads that they maintain, I’m not sure you’re going to save anything, plus you would create this much, much bigger agency,” he said. “I think our townships do a pretty good job of responding to people and addressing issues and I wouldn’t be interested in trying to eliminate any townships in this county.”

Klaas adds that it would quadruple the number of highway miles his department would be responsible for maintaining.

Even if the county didn’t absorb all 800 miles of highway lanes in Kendall County, Klaas doubts the local municipalities would want that responsibility.

“Ask the Millbrooks and the Lisbons and the Newarks of the world whether they want to take over all the township roads and they’ll tell you no,” Klaas said.

“There has been talk about abolishing townships for years, and whether it gets any momentum or not I don’t know.”

Employee’s idea brings city money Sewage treatment plant now getting more in fees

By LYLE R. ROLFE news@kendallcountynow.com

Several years ago, Plano city officials started a program asking for employee suggestions on ways to help the city operate more efficiently and possibly save money at the same time.

Mayor Bob Hausler told council members Monday night that they had received several suggestions since then.

They were good ones, but none fit the requirements set by council members until recently when one was submitted by Darrin Boyer, Water Reclamation Department director.

Hausler said that in the past, companies that empty septic tanks not connected to the city’s sanitary sewer system were hauling the material to out-of-town treatment facilities. Some used Fox Metro in Montgomery and others used treatment plants even further away.

He said they were not allowed to bring the septic material to Plano’s sanitary treatment plant even though it had ample capacity to treat the additional material.

Hausler said Boyer realized that the material from residential tanks contained compounds that are not in the material treated at the city plant. And these compounds would be beneficial to the city plant, making it run more efficiently, Boyer told city officials.

He said there could be monetary benefits to the city as well because the independent haulers would be paying a per-gallon treatment fee to the city instead of paying it to treatment plants such as Fox Metro.

Hausler said the council members agreed that this suggestion would be beneficial to Plano’s treatment plant operation and earn the city money as well. He said the program includes a formula for rewarding the employee by giving he or she part of the money that the city would save.

Implementing the new program meant purchasing some equipment to measure the gallons each septic hauler would bring to the plant, plus some other equipment needed to help in the treatment of the additional material.

Hausler said most of the expenses for the septic plant program were for hardware that will not have to be duplicated.

Alderman Bob Jones said the city to date has received about $58,120 in revenue from fees paid by the independent haulers. After an estimated $35,000 in expenses was deducted for the additional equipment at the plant, the city ended up with about $22,975 in profit from the new fees.

According to the program, Boyer will receive 10 percent of that amount, or $2,297, for suggesting the program, Jones said. When asked if Boyer would be eligible for a payment each month based on the additional revenue to the city, Hausler said this would be up to the council to discuss later.

Jones congratulated Boyer for his suggestion.

OPINION

Thursday, January 21, 2016 Plano Record • Page 4

OUR VIEW

Time for a county task force on streamlining government As we’ve reported, a state task force organized last March by Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner issued its recommendations earlier this month for streamlining local government across the state in an effort improve efficiency and save taxpayers money.

Among the recommendations contained in the task force’s 406-page report is a provision that would allow Illinois residents to consolidate or dissolve local units of government, while another would allow all township governments to consolidate with local municipalities having the same boundaries. The consolidations would be implemented following the passage of local referendums.

Another recommendation

calls for a change in state law that would remove an existing 126-square-mile cap on the size of townships. Removing the cap would allow for the consolidation of multiple townships into single townships larger than 126 square miles.

Kendall County is comprised of nine townships. Each of the nine township governments are responsible for overseeing a very narrow range of public services as specified under state law. Those services include: maintenance and snow plowing of roads in unincorporated areas, the assessment of properties for tax purposes and provide general assistance to the poor.

In the event township governments were dissolved those ser-

vices would have to be assumed by another entity, presumably either local municipalities or the county itself, or a combination of both.

It would also require a transfer of costs for those services from the township governments to the entity or entities that would assume the responsibility of providing them.

Dissolving or merging the townships would likely net some modest savings in reduced administrative costs, but given those agencies’ comparatively small budgets and the need to transfer the cost for services to the county or municipalities, any money saved would likely be but a blip on a residents’ annual property tax bills.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Marvels at Dr. King’s words

To the Editor: This week we observed Reverend Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday, giving a day off to many who might not know why. It’s a worthwhile activity to study both his “I Have a Dream” speech and his “Letter from Birmingham Jail.”

Many do not understand that Dr. King’s nonviolent protests had Judeo-Christian roots. Three months before his “I Have a Dream” speech, he was jailed in Birmingham, Alabama, during a nonviolent protest. His handwritten “Letter from a Birmingham Jail” is incredibly enlightening. Right near the beginning of his letter, he said he viewed himself as “compelled to carry the gospel of freedom.”

In our current times, with a despot for a president and a Congress that is nodding off, there are so many examples of people’s freedoms being trampled. Dr. King knew the dangers of keeping silent, and we should heed his words. In his letter he states, “We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it

must be demanded by the oppressed.” As we experience more oppression of people holding views contrary to current government edict, we must remember his words.

When we wonder about the laws coming down from a Supreme Court that has absolutely no authority to make law, we wonder how to react to laws that are unjust. Dr. King has something to say in his letter about that as well by quoting St. Augustine, “An unjust law is no law at all.”

Dr. King further defined the difference between just and unjust laws with this: “A just law is a man-made code that squares with the moral law, or the law of God. An unjust law is a code that is out of harmony with the moral law.” He goes on to state, “An unjust law is a code that a majority inflicts on a minority that is not binding on itself. This is difference made legal. On the other hand, a just law is a code that a majority compels a minority to follow, and that is willing to follow itself. This is sameness made legal.” Think about that.

• Continued on page 5

While we have our doubts about many of the recommendations contained in the task force’s 406 page report, we do believe it can serve as an excellent starting point for further study and discussions by officials at all levels of government in Kendall County.

We encourage county and officials with all other local taxing districts to download and review a copy of the report at Illinois. gov. Even better, we believe the county should now organize its own task force comprised of representatives from all county taxing districts to jointly review the report with an eye towards seeing how all of their respective agencies can work more efficiently together.

This local task force could make its own recommendations to the county concerning the possible merger or consolidations of townships and other taxing districts.

For more than a decade Kendall County has ranked near the top of nationwide lists for high property taxes. While we have no illusions that merging or consolidating smaller units of government here will produce a significant savings for property taxpayers, we do believe officials at every taxing district in the county owe it to their constituents to re-examine how they provide their services and if any savings can be realized through working or even merging with other agencies.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR • Continued from page 4

When speaking about civil disobedience, he pointed to the refusal of Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego to obey King Nebuchadnezzar’s law because a higher moral law existed.

But likely the most contemporary example of this comes from Dr. King’s reference to Hitler. His letter states, “We can never forget that everything Hitler did in Germany was ‘legal’ and everything the Hungarian freedom fighters did in Hungary was ‘illegal. It was ‘illegal’ to aid and comfort a Jew in Hitler’s Germany.”

He goes on to say that if he lived where certain principles dear to the Christian faith are suppressed, “I believe I would openly advocate disobeying these anti-religious laws.”

It is not my intent to diminish his work regarding black oppression.

But I marvel at his prophetic words of warning to all who feel the sting of oppression in all its forms right now. He would raise his voice with boldness.

Cindy Akre Plano

Moral compass lost

To the Editor: I’m perplexed by the faded reverence for Martin Luther King’s Birthday. I hold the holiday in humble admiration not because of the achievement of creating a holiday based on race or skin color but by the struggle, perseverance and achievement by which all Americans should learn from.

Fredrick Douglass once wrote, “Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning.

They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle. Power concedes nothing without a demand.”

The move to make Martin Luther King Jr.’s birthday was 32 years in the making before being enacted into law by President Ronald Reagan.

In his “I have a dream” speech, King said, “I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

Nowhere in King’s speech are reparations or entitlements mentioned that divisive politicians or special interests use to divide and conquer our nation, our people and the voters.

I would remind these charlatans of the 1925 words delivered in a West Abbey sermon by Frederick Lewis Donaldson in which he said “The Seven Social Sins are: Wealth without work. Pleasure without conscience. Knowledge without character. Commerce without morality. Science without humanity.

Worship without sacrifice. Politics without principle.”

I do not believe for one minute that socialism, social justice and social equality without labor and

sacrifice are what Douglass and King had in mind and certainly not why Reagan held King in such high esteem.

Our nation has lost its moral compass. We are enraged when there is collateral damage after a military strike, when an infamous lion is killed and beheaded by some dentist or a lizard is endangered by oil dwellers yet we continue to kill unborn babies in abortion clinics. Congress and Springfield have enacted laws to protect our citizens from bill collectors while they have emboldened the Internal Revenue Service with firearms and the power to seize assets, garnish wages and the power to arrest at gunpoint/will.

Hillary Clinton is making a presidential run while refusing to answer questions regarding Benghazi and while former IRS Director Lois Lerner continues to collect a six-figure salary after also refusing to answer questions regarding IRS improprieties, yet during this time Edward Snowden remains in self-exile and hiding for informing the general public how the government is spying on them.

Lincoln once said “…if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.” Our youth, our people and our nation need more lunch boxes, tackle boxes, tool boxes and less Xboxes, and we need to remember that sweat, stench and stains upon our labors bring credit rather than disgrace.

The constitution guarantees life, yet they are not granted a single breath. They are killed before they have a chance to pursue their happiness.

Is it because the babies have not been born yet, that they are not given their rights? Or is it just easier to think of aborted babies as “it” or “thing”? It’s so much easier to think of a child as an “it” because it is dehumanizing. It’s not killing when they were never alive, right? Wrong.

At the earliest, babies start to feel pain at 17 weeks. Abortion does hurt the baby, because it is human, and it is alive. We have liberty to protect our rights. Use yours to protect those who are defenseless.

Join the March for Life on Friday, Jan. 22. The March for Life in Washington, D.C., is the largest pro-life event in the world. The peaceful demonstration on the somber anniversary of Roe v. Wade every year since 1973 is a witness to the truth concerning the greatest human rights violation of our time, legalized abortion on demand.

Life is the empowering choice for all. Vote pro-life. Choose life.

Thanks, Northwest Ordinance! Signed, Illinois REFLECTIONS Roger Matile In the entire history of government, no newly-annexed territory’s citizens had ever been given the same rights and prerogatives as those living in the existing nation.

But in 1784, Thomas Jefferson proposed a law to do just that. Jefferson probably did not know he was preparing the groundwork for what would one day become the most powerful nation on Earth.

When the smoke had cleared after the American Revolution, the former colonists found they had acquired not only the 13 original colonies along the Atlantic coast, but had also won a vast, sparsely populated region stretching all the way to the little-known shores of the Mississippi River. The question was what to do with it.

When the British crown granted original colonial charters, the extent of the continent was unclear. Many of those charters granted land running from the Atlantic coast all the way west to the only vaguely known Mississippi River, and several of those charters overlapped.

Land speculation in the region west of the Appalachians had accelerated immediately before and after the French and Indian War ended in North America in 1763.

With the various colonial governments and land speculators hoping to make a killing as the resident Native Americans were becoming more and more hostile to intruding white settlers, the British government issued the Proclamation of 1763 banning all settlement west of a line running along the summit of the Appalachian chain.

Further, in violation of all those old colonial charters, the British government also granted most of the land west of the Proclamation Line to Quebec, and ordered, in effect, Catholicism to become the official religion of the region.

It was a laudable effort to win the hearts and minds of the newly conquered Canadians, but had the effect of enraging both the British colonial elites as well as the common folks hoping to push west to settle.

The actions were, in fact, some of the major causes of the Revolution.

During the Revolution, Virginia dispatched Major George Rogers Clark west with a small militia army to seize the Illinois Country. In a truly remarkable campaign, he separated the sprawling region north and west of the Ohio River from Canada. After the Revolution, Virginia claimed most of what would, in a few years, be called the Northwest Territory, including Illinois.

After Clark’s brilliant campaign, the distant area, declared a county of Virginia, was a continual thorn in the state’s side. It was simply too far away and too expensive for

The Ordinance of 1787, more familiarly known as the Northwest Ordinance, set up an orderly and innovative process for the as yet unsettled territories north and west of the Ohio River to become full members of the union. the war-weary and financially strapped state to supervise.

Virginia gratefully ceded the land to the federal government in 1784, as did the other states with overlapping western claims.

Apparently, Congress always intended for the unsettled lands west of the Appalachian Mountains to be admitted to the rest of the states as equal partners. Who originally proposed this unique method of absorbing unsettled lands, and why it was so popular with the young nation’s politicians, is unclear, but I suspect if the issue were dusted for prints, Jefferson’s would be found all over it.

As noted above, in 1784 Jefferson proposed a detailed process for bringing new regions into the union on an equal footing with existing states. His proposed ordinance, however, was not accepted by Congress, due to other, far more pressing matters that were on the table.

After the Revolution ended, Congress, under the Articles of Confederation, governed the nation. The Confederation, however, proved too weak to govern the large and growing nation.

There was no central executive power, no national judiciary, and no way to force the several states – or even private individuals – to adhere to any sort of national governmental structure. Therefore, a convention was called in 1787 to amend the Articles, but which ended up creating an entirely new constitution to form a more perfect union, an endeavor in which the Founders admirably succeeded.

But as weak as it was, the old Confederation Congress, as a kind of dying gasp in 1787, succeeded in passing one of history’s greatest pieces of legislation, one that incorporated many of Jefferson’s original ideas.

The Ordinance of 1787, more familiarly known as the Northwest Ordinance, clarified Jefferson’s suggestions of 1784 and set up an orderly and innovative process for the as yet unsettled territories north and west of the Ohio River to become full members of the

union.

This progressive piece of legislation was heavily influenced by two men who had extensive land interests in the Northwest Territory.

Today, we would term retired Revolutionary War General Rufus Putnam and the Rev. Manasseh Cutler developers, and public indignation would, ideally, prohibit them from influencing legislation in which they had a direct financial interest.

Given the influence lobbyists have on everything the government does these days, however, Putnam and Cutler simply appear to have been ahead of their own time.

The two speculators, on behalf of the Ohio and Scioto Land Companies, proposed to buy 5 million acres in the Northwest Territory from the financially strapped Confederation – but there was a catch. The funds would not be forthcoming unless the area had a viable government. So, as it often does, financial need spurred the Congress to action.

The Northwest Ordinance, as passed, had three important sections: 1) The area north of the Ohio would initially be divided into not less then three nor more than five territories (in 1784, Jefferson had proposed 10).

2) Each territory would go through three stages. First it would be ruled by an appointed governor; when the male population reached 5,000 a legislature would be elected and a representative sent to Congress; when population reached 60,000, the territory could be admitted as a state.

3) A bill of rights protecting freedom of speech, religion, and other basic liberties and prohibiting slavery was also included.

Five states were eventually formed from the old Northwest Territory – Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin, Ohio, and Indiana.

It is generally concluded that the ordinance was the crowning achievement of the government under the Articles of Confederation, and is considered by many historians to be of equal importance with the Articles themselves.

County backs improvements to Route 30, Orchard Road Supports effort to update intersection and Montgomery Village President Matt Brolley.

It notes the intersection’s “F” rating for traffic movements at that location.

Board member Dan Koukol explained that the letter is the first step in getting IDOT to upgrade the intersection.

“We would like to encourage IDOT to put that on the front burner in their five-year plan,” Koukol said. “All of the other entities are involved so this is something we would like to get on the bandwagon with.”

In the letter, Shaw notes that about 50,000 vehicles per day travel through the intersection.

Shaw also notes in the letter that “by 2040, this [traffic] volume is expected to increase over 70 percent.

This intersection also has one of the highest accident rates in Montgomery, according to Montgomery officials.”

IDOT is currently studying the widening and improvement of Route 30 between the Route 31 interchange and Route 47. Those improvements, however, are not in the state’s fiveyear plan.

Brolley previously has

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com Kendall County is the latest local government agency to ask the Illinois Department of Transportation to make improvements to the intersection at Route 30 and Orchard Road in Montgomery.

In a unanimous vote Tuesday, the Kendall County Board approved sending a letter to IDOT requesting that the agency include funding for widening and additional turn lanes at the intersection in the agency’s five-year highway improvement program.

Board member Elizabeth Flowers of Montgomery was absent from the meeting and the vote to send the letter.

IDOT has jurisdiction over the intersection, while Kane County maintains Orchard Road north of Route 30 and Kendall County maintains Orchard Road to the south of the intersection.

The letter, signed by County Board Chairman John Shaw, will be sent to John Fortmann, deputy director for IDOT Region 1, as well as Kane County Board Chairman Chris Lauzen

said he would like to see IDOT improve the intersection as quickly as possible while continuing to plan for the eventual widening of Route 30 between Routes 31 and 47.

Shaw says in the letter that he believes that the “intersection improvements at Orchard Road represent the single most urgent need in the overall project and should be considered as a stand-alone project that could be advanced separately from other Route 30 improvements.”

He also notes that the county highway department would work with IDOT, Kane County and Montgomery to investigate the possibility of moving forward with the improvements.

Brolley and other village officials have been actively seeking improvements to the intersection to boost safety and expedite traffic flow. Currently, traffic back-ups are a daily occurrence at the intersection, especially during morning and evening rush hour periods.

Shaw said the letter was requested by Brolley for safety reasons “in response to the carnage up there at Route 30 and Orchard Road … there have been some doozies [accidents].”

Newark upgrades ambulance service

By JOHN ETHEREDGE jetheredge@shawmedia.com The Newark Fire Protection District is now offering upgraded emergency ambulance service.

David Thompson, secretary for the fire district’s board of trustees, said the fire district has received state approval and secured authorization from Morris Hospital to offer Advanced Life Support (ALS) service on its ambulances on calls when a certified paramedic is on one of the district’s ambulances.

The district has been offering the ALS service since early last month, Thompson said. He added the fire district had been seeking state approval for the service upgrade since March.

The fire district serves a population of about 4,500 residents in a 64-squaremile rural area that includes portions of southern Kendall and northern Grundy counties.

Thompson said the fire district operates out of a single station in Newark and is staffed entirely by volunteers, including about nine certified paramedics who work full-time for other area fire districts. He said when the paramedics are available to respond to an ambulance call, the district now has the ability to offer the ALS service when the paramedics determine it is necessary.

“Previously under our BLS [Basic Life Support] license all we could do for a patient was to give them oxygen and go fast [to the hospital], or wait for a mutual aid ALS ambulance [from another fire district]. We could not administer intravenous fluids or drugs, but now we can if the situation calls for it and we have paramedic on the ambulance we can do so,” he said.

Thompson added, “This ALS service will provide our residents with a higher, more advanced level of care without waiting for a mutual aid ALS ambulance. Oftentimes this time is crucial in determine the outcome of a patient.”

Thompson emphasized that fire district personnel will only upgrade their response to ALS service when it is necessary. “The paramedics will make the decision on the scene,” he said.

As of Thursday, Thompson said paramedics had upgraded two calls over the past four weeks to ALS level. In both calls paramedics kept the patients alive in the ambulance en route to the hospital. One of the patients lived, while the other died at the hospital, he said.

Thompson acknowledged it will cost the fire district some additional money to offer the ALS service.

Thompson said he expects the fire district’s tax rate will increase “one or two cents” this year.

“I really want to know about the patients and about their interests and their concerns. I want to do as thorough of a job as I can and make them feel comfortable.”

So this first article was not about Plano, but it certainly was about someone who was well-known by Plano, so I decided to include it as news that Plano people were interested in reading.

The date on the article was Sept. 23, 1933. OCR must be carefully checked as one works.)

From The Bendigo Advertiser, Australia: “Obituary-Mr. William Deering, London, 11 December 1913…published on 12 December 1913. His estate is worth £10,000,000.

Mr. Deering as a youth was engaged in the dry goods business. He established his harvester works at Plano, Illinois, in 1873. He was president of the Deering

Harvester Co., and of William Deering and Co., and a director of the International Harvester Co. in Chicago.” (He was the man that William Deering Steward, son of Marcus, and then the mayor or Plano, was named after. All of Marcus’ sons had names that were taken from important men in the business of improving the lives and work of farmers of the time. The “real” William Deering would have been worth at least $14.7 million dollars when he died – and that was at the 1913 valuation.)

An advertisement from the “Chicago Livestock World,” an Illinois newspaper: “When in Chicago you are Cordially Invited to Visit the Exhibit of The Independent Harvester Co., ‘The Farmers’ Company’ of Plano, Illinois. The exhibit is in the Pure-Bred Live Stock Record Building, next building west of the Live Stock World. This harvester company is composed chiefly of farmers, and is attracting great attention owing to the unique plan it has established whereby each farmer member of the company can share in the business and also get a

discount on machinery.”

(Note that the Independent Harvester Company was in Plano, and the International Harvester Company was in Chicago… and was the company that went on to make so many of those red tractors we still see today.)

And a warning came from the “Chicago Livestock World” too, both were in the Feb. 15, 1910, issue: “If you get into the hands of those stock cattle and feeder swindlers who advertise and in letters describe what you find was always ‘just sold out before you got there’, you stand as much chance of escaping with a whole hide as a celluloid dog would have chasing an asbestos rabbit through Hades.”

(Farmers have had their “favorite” breeds of pigs for many years, perhaps “forever.” Our grandfather, Bill Lawrie, always had Spotted Poland Chinas. Our dad had Durocs for most of his farming years, but then discovered Landrace hogs about 50 years later – so good that I could tell which breed mom was serving for supper. And when Bruce was taking ag classes, he raised Hampshires. I was surprised one recent year at the Fair (the Sandwich Fair, of course) to find that all the kids seemed to have “mixed breed” hogs now.)

2016’s top fitness trends in three words: digital, wearable, personal WAUBONSEE VOICES Michelle Anderson It’s the month of packed gyms, new memberships and renewed commitments to health and fitness. If you’re one of the many planning to boost your efforts at the gym this month, do you know what to expect beyond the treadmills and weight room? Read on to avoid looking lost in the locker room, because this year’s predicted top trends in the fitness industry continue to merge technology with diet and exercise.

According to the American College of Sports Medicine, this year’s top 10 trends in fitness are wearable technology, body weight training, high-intensity interval training, strength training, certified and experienced fitness professionals, personal training, functional fitness, fitness programs for older adults, exercise and weight loss, and yoga. These predictions indicate that fitness – like everything else – is going digital and personalized. Wearable technology, such as heart-rate monitors, fitness trackers, smart watches and GPS tracking devices, is hot.

At Waubonsee Community College’s Total Fitness Center, you’ll find that our programs and facilities mir-

ror these fitness trends. Our incentive games encourage and reward participants to monitor their activities with personal devices.

To aid those goals, our newly remodeled fitness center and dance studio are equipped with Apple Bluetooth technology to track participants’ efforts by displaying heart rates and calories burned during workouts. The data from workouts is then sent to participants, allowing them to track their progress.

New this spring, Waubonsee is offering Tabata Bootcamps, which are high-intensity interval training programs that incorporate a strength component, using mostly body weight exercises to promote functional fitness. These classes promote lifestyle changes by offering online support for nutrition and exercise.

Personal training has held a top 10 position in the ACSM’s fitness trends for the past nine years.

The popularity of personal trainers follows the increasing expectation for personalization and customization.

Personal trainers are very helpful for the beginner, teaching proper techniques and customizing workouts around the client’s abilities and goals.

Yoga seems to be evergreen on the fitness trend list from year to year, probably because it is constantly

reinvented and refreshed.

Offered at Waubonsee this spring, Power Yoga is a vigorous, fitness-based approach to yoga that emphasizes strength and flexibility.

Fitness trends are always changing, but the purpose behind those efforts remains constant. Physical activity is one of the best modifiable factors for the prevention of

diseases. Time at the gym will always be time well spent, and that will never go out of style.

‘Strong test’ ahead Reapers now 4-4 entering I-8 tourney

BOYS BASKETBALL

Plano shooting for top-4 seed

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com The Plano girls’ basketball team will enter the Interstate Eight Conference tournament with an 8-12 overall and 4-4 league record after the Reapers’ 50-41 victory over Coal City last Thursday.

Seeds and pairings for the tournament were not yet released at press time, but it will take place at Coal City. The top four seeds will receive byes and seeds five though 12 will start play on Thursday.

“We have to continue to get better, and this tournament will be another strong test,” Plano head coach John Chernick said. “Anyone can beat anyone else on a given night. Hopefully, we have put ourselves in a position to have a home game in the opening round.

There is a strong chance we will play multiple games against teams we have faced already. It’s always a measuring stick when you see a team again, so we are looking forward to the challenge.”

Against Coal City, the Coalers led 22-17 at halftime before the Reapers outscored them 23-4 in the third quarter. Entering the final frame, Plano led 30-26. Senior Rylie Loux scored a game-high 21 points.

“We probably played one of our better overall games of the year,”

The Plano wrestling team posted a 1-2 finish in duals last week, picking up an Interstate Eight Conference win over Herscher, 34-29.

The Reapers traveled to Streator last Thursday and split the triangular, falling to Manteno 42-35.

On Friday, Plano hosted Plainfield South and fell 61-12 to the No. 25-ranked Class 3A squad.

Plano will travel to Wilmington on Thursday for a triangular with Seneca before the I-8 Tournament arrives on Saturday at Sandwich.

The Reapers will close the regular season calendar with two more dates, traveling to Sandwich for a dual on Jan. 29 before hosting East Aurora and Genoa-Kingston on Feb. 2.

The postseason opens at the Class 1A Coal City Regional on Feb. 6.

Plano is currently ranked No. 24 in Class 1A. Nico Nunez is ranked No. 3 individually at 113 pounds, Jake Krotz is ranked No. 12 at 120, Ivan Garcia is ranked No. 6 at 126, Myles Mendoza is ranked sixth at 132, Zach Tomaz is third at 160 and Tommy Brown is sixth at 285.

Reapers on six-game win streak

By CHRISTINE BOLIN DASCHER cbolin@kendallcountynow.com

Senior Shannon Tierney puts pressure on Coal City’s Cali Caruso late in Plano’s win Thursday night.

Chernick said. “They are an excellent program. [Plano assistant coach Al] Gruidl had an excellent defensive game plan, and the girls executed it very well. Raven Russell really provided a spark off the bench, getting a couple of steals and taking a charge. Rylie really was a force offensively. She did a nice job getting to the basket.”

Prior to Coal City, Kaneland de-

feated the Reapers, 77-44. Loux led Plano with 14 points and Shannon Tierney added 11 points.

“Kaneland is an excellent team,” Chernick said about the Knights, who are 15-2 overall.

“For us to hang with Kaneland for most of three quarters, I was really proud of the girls for that. Kaneland’s size just was too much for us inside.”

Going into this week of action, the Plano boys’ basketball team was hoping for a top four seed at the Interstate Eight Conference tournament.

The top four seeds get a bye and will not have to play on Friday. Entering Tuesday’s game against Seneca, the Reapers were 4-1 in conference action, 9-6 overall and on a six-game winning streak.

Seeds and pairings for the tournament, which will be hosted by Coal City, were not released at press time.

Even though the Reapers do not know who and when they will be playing, Plano head coach Kyle Kee is expecting a super-competitive tournament this year.

Plano’s lone loss in the league was to Peotone (6142) on Dec. 8. The wins were against Streator, Wilmington, Westmont and Coal City.

“We expect a tough battle every game,” Kee said. “The top of the conference is very strong with Reed-Custer, Peotone, Lisle, Sandwich and others. It’s going to be a difficult tournament, but I feel we are playing really good basketball right now and we are going to be a tough team to beat.”

Plano’s most recent win was against Coal City, 5538, last Friday.

The Reapers jumped out to a 19-3 first quarter and never looked back.

They led 32-19 at halftime and 48-29 going into the fourth.

Junior Elijah Maisonet led Plano with 14 points and both Marcus Ramirez and Will Benson each netted 10 points. “[From] the start, we really came out and got our press going,” Kee said. [Coal City] struggled against it and it got us playing up and down, which is what we want to do.”

Running to get in shape in 2016?

State champion Yorkville cross country coach offers tips and training advice

By MATT SCHURY mschury@kendallcountynow.com Cheeseburgers and stress.

Those are just two reasons Chris Muth hits the trail for a run most mornings.

Muth, who has coached the Yorkville High School girls and boys cross country teams to seven state championships since 2011, is also a lifelong runner who runs many of the area races and half marathons.

Cut from his high school baseball team his freshman year, Muth joined the track team and from there he found cross country. He has been running ever since.

“From my experience running is a de-stresser. If I’m really stressed out or I’m cranky this is something that I can do to prevent giving those feelings off to my family when I get home,” Muth said.

With many people now trying to get into shape for the new year, Muth offered some tips and training techniques for running and how to stay motivated.

“Being able to run the whole thing [a 5K] is the biggest deal and when you get more advanced there are a lot more training tips I could give, but the first one – just get through it.”

Chris Muth Yorkville High School cross country coach

One way Muth suggests to help runners stay on course is to offer themselves a reward if they go for a run. In his case Muth uses food.

“If I run today maybe I can have a Wendy’s Junior Bacon Cheeseburger – that’s just me,” he said. “I feel better about myself when I know I’ve got my run in for the day. I joke with the kids at school because they run for times and I run to eat. It allows me to enjoy the other pleasures.”

Muth added that building individual

self-esteem is one of the many benefits of running. Runners, he said, feel better as they extend their mileage and their times improve.

“You can see it in the results of your body changing and you become a more healthier person. Maybe you start to become more active with your kids or in the community,” he said.

For new runners, Muth recommends signing up for a 5K run well in advance and then training for it.

Muth said it’s all about finishing that first race and from there running can become an addiction.

“If it’s your first 5K, you just have to survive it,” he said. “Being able to run the whole thing is the biggest deal and when you get more advanced there are a lot more training tips I could give, but the first one – just get through it.”

Starting small and having reachable goals is also important for first-time runners, Muth says.

“You have to start out within reason.

You can’t just go,” he said. “It’s unhealthy to start off with running seven days a week. You should really only move up about 10 percent of your mileage every week.”

Consistency is also key.

“The biggest thing about running is

Number of runs in county has jumped over the years

What makes it unique? A chance to support and run with a lot of high energy junior high school students and teachers.

jetheredge@shawmedia.com

If you are out early on a Saturday or Sunday morning and discover police have temporarily closed a nearby street to traffic, there’s a good chance the closure may be due to a run.

In 2014 a record 18.75 million Americans finished a road race, according to Running USA, a trade group. Among those 18 million-plus people were a few thousand runners who crossed finish lines here in Kendall County.

As the county’s population and running’s popularity have grown over the past two decades, so has the number of local runs.

Back in the 1980s, the Oswegoland Park District’s PrairieFest 5K and Gobbler Hobbler 10K and the Fox Valley YMCA’s Summer Scamper at Silver Springs State Park were among the very few organized runs offered in the county. But now local runners have their pick of runs from April through December.

Here’s a month-by-month listing of many of the local runs:

APRIL

Einstein Family 5K Run/Walk: Sunday, April 17, Oswego East High School, 1525 Harvey Road, Oswego. The run will benefit the Oswego Foundation for Educational Excellence, a nonprofit that has given out more $500,000 in grants to fund educational initiatives in District 308 since 1995. For more information, email race director Danielle Paul at danielle_paul_ ofee@yahoo.com.

What makes it unique? Race organizers are inviting School District 308 employees to enter as teams. Which of the employee teams will run the fastest?

Celebrate Differences’ Brighter Future 5K: Sunday, April 24, Oswego. This 5K starts

MAY

Running of the Wolves 5K: Sunday, May 1, Aurora. This popular annual run starts and ends at School District 308’s The Wheatlands Elementary School at 2290 Barrington Drive West. The run, which attracts hundreds of participants each year, is a fundraiser intended to help foster a strong relationship between the community, parents, students and school staff while also promoting healthy lifestyle choices.

Proceeds from the Running of the Wolves are used to help purchase supplies and equipment for the school. For more information, visit SD308.org.

What makes it unique? The run is a celebration of the strong bond between The Wheatlands and the community it serves.

Shaw Media file photo

Participants charge from the starting line in the Oswegoland Park District’s annual Gobbler Hobbler 10K race in November 2015. and ends on Franklin Street in front of the Oswego 308 Center (former Traughber Junior High School). The course winds through the neighborhood just south of downtown and includes some “late” hills on mile three. Proceeds from the race go to support Celebrate Differences, an organization that works to support the families of children with disabilities. For more information, visit celebratedifferences.org.

What makes it unique? The weather may be cold, but runners get a very warm feeling knowing they are helping Celebrate Differences help local families who need the support.

Saw Wee Kee Spring Trail Run: Saturday,

April 16, Saw Wee Kee Park in Oswego. The Oswegoland Park District sponsors this four-mile run through the woods in the hilly and wooded park south of Oswego off Reservation Road.

What makes it unique? Besides the beautiful course, the race has a 4 p.m. start, making it hard to oversleep.

Tiger Roar 5K and 1 Mile Fun Run: Saturday, April 23, Thompson Junior High School, 440 Boulder Hill Pass, Oswego. The race starts and ends at Thompson Junior High School. School officials launched “The Roar” a few years ago to promote healthy lifestyles. For more informa-

PeppeRUNi 5K Run & Walk: Saturday, May 7, Yorkville. The Yorkville Parks and Recreation Department sponsors this run, which starts and ends at the Rosati’s Pizza & Pub at 1985 Marketview Drive (Ill. Route 47) on the city’s north side. The registration fee includes a T-shirt and free slice of pizza. Bonus: the top male and female runners will win Rosati’s pizza for a year.

Proceeds from the race will go to Push for the Path, a not-for-profit community organization seeking to raise funds to build a 2.72-mile multiuse path along Kennedy Road from Route 47 to Mill Road. The path would provide a link for Yorkville runners, cyclists and walkers to access the existing trail system in Oswego and the rest of the Fox River valley.

Sunday School to donate animals Goal is to give $1,560 to Heifer International SHAW MEDIA The Sunday School children at United Methodist Church in Plano are collecting donations for their mission project.

They are raising funds to purchase “Knitter’s Baskets” consisting of two llamas, two alpacas, two sheep, and two angora rabbits plus two “Gifts of Clean Water” through Heifer Inter-

national.

These gifts are to be given to families who do not get to enjoy the very basic items in life.

Donations are being accepted through Feb. 14. The goal is $1,560 with an added incentive from Pastor Kent to cuddle with one of these animals.

These animals bring prosperity and self-reliance to families with a steady source of a small income, soft wool, rich sweet milk, and fertilizer for improving soil.

This small source of income provides much-needed medicine, food,

and schooling.

Clean water is something we all take for granted.

These gifts of clean water will provide irrigation pumps, filters, and processing for cleaner and healthier water.

The community is invited to the worship service on Feb. 14 at 10:30 a.m., to witness Pastor Kent cuddle with one of these animals as the children make their goal of $1,560.

Anyone wishing to donate to this project may contact Linda at 630-5523828 or the United Methodist Church office at 630-552-3700.

There is a very interesting psychology experiment where you trick people into either smiling or frowning without their knowing it (by telling them to hold a pencil either in their teeth, to make them smile, or with their pursed lips, to make them “Whoever scorns instruction will pay frown), and while they hold that facial position you for it, but whoever respects a command tell them a joke. Those who are holding the smile is rewarded. The teaching of the wise usually rate the joke as being funnier, presumably is a fountain of life, turning a person because they are already halfway laughing to start from the snares of death.” with.

Training the home orchard Just what do fruit tree experts mean when they say “you need train your fruit tree?” Home orchardists need to train their trees for structure to encourage fruit production and to have a productive, high-yielding home orchard.

Proper training also gives you a tree that can hold the fruit load without needing any additional support. The scaffold branches need to be positioned to allow good sunlight throughout the canopy to promote fruit production from the interior to the outside of the canopy. This will allow air circulation in the canopy, reducing leaf and fruit diseases, so you benefit in two ways.

Using dwarf apple trees as an example, you will likely use what is termed the central leader system to train your trees. The central leader system allows your fruit tree to look much more like most other trees in your landscape, yet produce apples without the tree looking like those you see in older commercial orchards.

Training starts the first year you plant your fruit trees. This ensures your dwarf tree actually remains dwarf in your home

DOWN THE GARDEN PATH Richard Hentschel orchard.

You can start to select your scaffold branches placing the first set of scaffold branches no more than 20 to 24 inches from the ground. By starting that low, you will be able to place additional scaffolds and still have a mature tree that is no taller than 6 to 8 feet tall, making it easier to manage.

There are several other advantages of a welltrained dwarf fruit tree.

Annual spring pruning will be visually clearer as to which branches need your attention. There will be branches that need to be adjusted using traditional branch spreaders or alternative methods such as using twine and a stake to pull the branch into the desired horizontal plane as you develop your scaffolds.

Water sprouts will be easily identified, as they will be growing straight up from the horizontal scaffold branches.

As your dwarf fruit tree matures in size, home orchardists will realize there

are additional benefits.

The weekly inspection and monitoring of fruit pests will be easier and done very quickly. Even though young fruit trees may not be producing apples, there are insects and foliar diseases that need to be taken care of. Foliage feeding insects reduce the canopy, decreasing the amount of energy that can go into growth and development.

Leaf diseases have a similar impact.

If allowed to continue over the season, or seasons, it could easily delay fruit production and in a bigger picture, lessen the overall vigor. You want a tree that develops quickly, so that your training then can encourage flowers and fruit set. Limited fruits can begin to show up as early as the third year and get more productive every year after. Enjoy the challenge and amaze your friends with fruit that came right out of your yard.

Area 4-H Shooting Sports program now in third year SHAW MEDIA The 4-H Shooting Sports Program for DuPage, Kane and Kendall Counties reached milestones in 2015, and volunteers have new goals in mind as the program enters its third year.

“We had quite a year in 2015,” said Rick Winninger, 4-H Shooting Sports volunteer coordinator. “We had 24 kids participate, with seven qualifying for the State Rifle Shoot Competition in October. We came in first in the team event, and one of our students, Thomas Bennet, placed second overall. It was a great learning experience for both shooters and coaches.”

The 4-H Shooting Sports program serves DuPage, Kane and Kendall County youth and includes three disciplines – Outdoor Skills, Archery and Air Rifle.

“First and foremost we start with teaching safety,” said Winninger. “Once archery or firearm safety is understood, we move onto the hands-on portion of the program.

Safety is reinforced from start to finish with every student at every class.”

In addition, the 2016 participants will receive a firearm safety class taught by the Firearm Safety Academy. The program’s equipment was secured through a National Rifle Association Foundation grant, and Illinois 4-H trained all the volunteers.

“Without the support of the NRA Foundation and the dedication and hard work of

all our volunteers, this successful, growing program would not be possible,” said Deanna Roby, 4-H Youth Development educator with University of Illinois Extension of DuPage, Kane and Kendall Counties. “The three disciplines are offered to all our area youth, and sessions usually are based in a single county.”

For example, archery is taught in Kane County, and the outdoor skills classes are held in Kendall County. Currently, Winninger is looking for a winter practice space or to secure a permanent location or range to conduct air rifle classes.

“We have been fortunate that Knollwood Gun Club of Yorkville has donated both a summer-time range and some funding for this program,” he said. “However, we still do not have an indoor location for the other six-month stretch, and there are no funds available for rental fees. When we had to tell the kids that the program was on hold until we had a location, the looks of disappointment made it really tough.”

The volunteer group hopes to have an indoor location donated to allow the program to continue with less interruption.

If you are interested in contributing, contact Roby at roby@illinois.edu or at the University of Illinois Extension office in Kane County, at 630-584-6166. The local 4-H Shooting Sports Program also welcomes new volunteer instructors in order to serve additional youth. Training is required.

seeking helpers in 2016 SHAW MEDIA

With a new year underway, personal goals and resolutions are top of mind. If you are looking for a fresh idea this time around, consider making 2016 your year to volunteer.

“Volunteering is a rewarding way to give back to your community or to inspire the next generation,” said Deanna Roby, University of Illinois Extension Educator with 4-H Youth Development in DuPage, Kane and Kendall Counties. “There are many organizations to consider, including 4-H. It is important to choose one that meets your objectives.”

The 4-H program is intentionally designed around four essential concepts necessary for positive youth development: a sense of belonging with a positive group, a development of independence, a spirit of generosity toward others, and a variety of opportunities to engage in learning and master life challenges, explained Roby.

“Through 4-H, volunteers encourage tomorrow’s leaders. It may be by teaching them life skills, encouraging them to be good citizens, or even to providing education in a specific area,” she said. “We work with you to design a volunteer experience to fit your goals, schedule and comfort zone.

There is a wide range of opportunities and time commitments.”

“Being connected to a caring adult outside of parents and family members is important to positive youth development,” explained Roby.

In a recent tri-county 4-H survey, 88 percent of local 4-H youth reported that they have built these crucial bonds through 4-H. In addition, 95 percent of local 4-H’ers said 4-H has helped them find talents to share with others.

Another way to make such an impact is to consider a growing segment of volunteerism in 4-H known as the SPIN Club.

“This fun, interactive volunteer opportunity allows you to share your passion or expertise with local youth,” Roby explained.

“SPIN Clubs, or special interest clubs, are short-term programs that focus on a specific topic or skill, such as gardening, robotics, photography, cooking, woodworking, or visual arts. The possibilities are endless! It is a rewarding way to encourage youth, while doing what you love.”

Roby stressed that 4-H volunteers do not need to 4-H alums.

“You don’t need to be a past member,” Roby said. “All of our volunteers care greatly about passing on knowledge and skills to today’s youth, and these leaders are the backbone of the 4-H Youth Development program. Whether someone is a longtime community club leader or a one-day workshop teacher, we appreciate all that they do to help 4-H youth.”

For more information 4-H Youth Development programs in your county, contact Roby at 630584-6166 or visit web.extension.illinois.edu/dkk.

Bridget Bridget is a 4 year old female kitty.

She is a small (6 lb.), light colored tabby, with an impossibly cute face and a big Siamese voice.

She likes cuddling and talking with her foster mom, but can hold her own with the 3 big male cats she lives with.

Bridget would be happy to go to her new home alone or with one of her friends. All would be wonderful additions to any family.

Bridget's adoption fee is $100.00 which includes her spay, vaccines and microchip.

If you are interested in adopting a kitty companion, call Paws and Purrs Humane Society.

We are an all-volunteer feline rescue group.

All of our cats and kittens are cared for in foster homes until they can be adopted.

Adoptions events are held from 4 to 7 pm the second Saturday of the month at the Geneva Petco on Randall Rd. We also have other cats in store at that location.

VERDAD Verdad's Story... UPDATE: I am back.

I guess that they did not know that I am a puppy and I need direction and lessons.

I did not kn ow that I was not supposed to eat the Christmas Tree and then his jacket was the last straw.

Sorry but no one told me.

If someone will please give me another chance, please teach me right from wrong.

Born around the 28th of Sept. in Tennessee, I have come North to look for a loving family. I am a very sweet and loving little female and would like to find a family that wants a 4 legged little creature to love and pamper. I will return by lots of kisses and tail wags and ever so much unconditional love.

Are you interested? If so, please contact 4Paws 4U 4Ever so they can schedule a time for us to meet.

Thanks for looking.

4Paws 4U 4Ever will be hosting adoption events Saturday at DOWNERS GROVE Petsmart and Sunday at SOUTH ELGIN Petsmart.

I will be waiting anxiously to find my new 4Ever family. and I will have some of my puppy and adult dog friends from the shelter available for adoption too!

Visit

www.puppiesthatneedlove.com

to see all of the puppies and dogs that are available.

You can request any of the dogs or pups be brought to an adoption event for your family to meet or schedule a time to see Verdad at the shelter by calling 630-258-9219, or please fill out the application on the website under How to Adopt.
