Plano Molding workers help project

By PAT WALLIS news@kendallcountynow.com SANDWICH – Employees of Plano Molding Co. in Sandwich have for years been filling large, decorative boxes with nonperishable groceries that will be distributed through the Franklin Mall Christmas Project to families in need.

Many of the workers recently gathered around the company’s colorful box, smiling while being thanked by the Sandwich Lions Club for their generosity.

Sandwich Lions President Ed Carter expressed his amazement at the number of goods collected. The Sandwich Lions Club has administered the

Franklin Mall Christmas Project for many years.

Nonperishable food items, as well as packaged household and personal products, are being collected through Dec. 14 so they can be sorted and packed at the Sandwich Fire Station, ready for delivery to deserving families and individuals who live in the Sandwich School District.

Teams of volunteers will be delivering the boxes to more than 250 addresses on Dec. 17.

The club hopes there are enough groceries donated to allow families of six or more to get two boxes. There are many families with six to 10 in the household, according to Lions Grocery Box Chair Karen Spangler.

Groceries are being collected at all banks in Sandwich, as well as Art’s Food Market, Dollar General, the Somonauk and Sandwich Public Libraries, several other businesses and churches.

For more information, contact Spangler at 815-786-2189 or kgspangler@gmail.com, Christmas Cheer Basket Chair Kyle Wallis at 815-7868789, Lions President Ed Carter at 630552-1345 or Michele “Mickey” Farley at 815-786-8086.

New state’s attorney says it will take time to get up to speed

By BRETT ROWLAND browland@shawmedia.com

SYCAMORE – When DeKalb County State’s Attorney Rick Amato moved into his office last week, he found a box of toys for children, a table-top billiards game, drug court files and boxes and binders filled with information about the county’s most controversial homicide.

How Amato handles the case of the 1957 kidnapping and slaying of 7-yearold Sycamore girl Maria Ridulph could set the tone for his four-year term. His predecessor’s handling of the case might have cost him a second term.

Amato, 42, campaigned doggedly in the race to unseat incumbent Richard Schmack. Schmack was responsible for undoing the conviction of Jack McCullough, the 76-year-old Seattle man found guilty of the girl’s murder in 2012. Schmack has said evidence in the case proves McCullough was in Rockford at the time of Ridulph’s disappearance Dec. 3, 1957, from the corner of Center Cross Street and Archie Place in Sycamore.

A judge vacated McCullough’s conviction in April and he was released from prison. McCullough is scheduled for a hearing Monday in his effort to get a certificate of innocence, but Amato said he plans to ask that the hearing be postponed until he can review the thousands of pages of material in the binders and boxes that came with his new office on the main floor of the DeKalb County Courthouse.

Amato said this week that he hasn’t made any decisions about the case. He said he couldn’t say if he would support or oppose McCullough’s bid for a certificate of innocence until he reviewed the case files.

“There’s so much to get up to speed on,” he said. “It will take some time to review.”

Matthew Apgar – mapgar@shawmedia.com

New DeKalb County State’s Attorney Rick Amato talks with a staff member on Dec. 1, his first day on the job, at the DeKalb County Courthouse in Sycamore. Amato is taking over the position after beating former State’s Attorney Richard Schmack in the November election.

To help with that process, Amato said he would bring in other prosecutors in his office to help with the work.

Amato said his predecessor handled the case on his own.

Other cases will continue as scheduled, including the upcoming trial of a former Northern Illinois University police officer accused of sexually assaulting a student in 2011, Amato said.

Even before taking the oath of office, Amato had started the transition process. That has included meeting with law enforcement officials and

court officials.

It continued last week with a meeting with his 22 employees, including 12 assistant state’s attorneys. He planned to meet in the coming weeks with court officials, prosecutors from other counties and others.

During the campaign, Amato said that his top priority would be to review the office’s policies and procedures, including implementing a felony review program to make sure violent offenders are charged correctly. He said it also would reduce “over-

charging” so that the office could focus its efforts on prosecuting the most serious crimes.

However, change will take time.

He said he plans to spend a lot of time figuring out how things work in the office before making any changes.

“I need to learn where each piece of paper goes,” he said.

After that, Amato said he will work to improve how the office functions.

Amato said he was humbled by the office he was elected to and was looking forward to working with his team.

OBITUARIES

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT A CHILD’S SPECIAL GRIEF Sometimes a child’s expression of grief can startle adults. It is not uncommon for young children who lose a parent or sibling to resume playing soon after the death, as if nothing had happened. They may also make statements that seem glib to adults and ask the same questions over and over.

They may act in aggressive or hostile ways and seem not to care about the death. Within a few weeks, they may begin asking when the family will get a replacement for the lost parent or sibling.

When this happens, it is important for adults to remember that intense emotions are hard for young children to sustain. In these situations, the children’s behavior is largely a defense. That’s understandable, otherwise the reality of death would be too overwhelming to face.

Denying grief will not make it go away. On the other hand, children have a natural resiliency that can help them adjust.

BUILD program extended; sales tax goes back on ballot SANDWICH – The Sandwich B.U.I.L.D. incentive program will be extended 18 months, with May 31, 2018, set as the date of expiration. A resolution concerning the issue was approved at a recent Sandwich City Council meeting.

The incentive program reduces the cost of city building permit fees to about one-third of the original fees, taking the total closer to $5,000 rather than about $15,000. In order to take part in the program, the homes are to be constructed on vacant lots that are currently available within the city and cannot be “spec” houses that are built on speculation.

Three houses were erected during the first B.U.I.L.D. program that expired Nov. 30.

The council approved a resolution

to again submit to Sandwich voters a referendum to impose a sales tax increase within the city. The non-homerule sales tax increase will be placed on the April 4 ballot, according to the resolution. The same matter was defeated during the November general election.

The 2016 Clark Street emergency generator project for the water treatment facility has been revised, with the delivery date of the emergency generator now unknown. The council approved a change order, moving the completion date to Dec. 30, 2016.

Mayor Rick Olson said he would call the Frontier governmental representative to resolve an issue described

by Alderman Bill McMahon at the council meeting. McMahon said he’d received several calls from residents who were frequently unable to access their Frontier internet from midnight to 4 a.m. and he’d experienced the same problem.

This year’s harvest season is largely ended, but truckloads of grain still stream from area farms to grain elevators or directly to Illinois River terminals as the end of the crop goes to market.

This “Golden Stream,” as author William Cronon described it, moves corn and soybeans from field to temporary storage to market in a smooth flow that is a marvel of efficiency, one that would astonish our pioneer farmer ancestors.

In the first half of the 19th century, grain traveled to market in burlap bags and cloth sacks. Before it could be shipped off the farm, corn had to be shelled, and small grains – oats, wheat, rye, and barley – had to be threshed (removed from the stalks) and winnowed to separate the grain from the chaff. Then it was placed in cloth sacks, which were sewn shut, loaded aboard wagons and hauled to the nearest market.

REFLECTIONS Roger Matile Before railroads pushed west of Chicago to the Fox Valley in the late 1840s, that meant taking horsedrawn wagonloads of full grain sacks over the terrible roads of the era to the South Water Street market. There it was inspected and stored in warehouses until it was sold, either to a local user or to be loaded aboard a ship and sent to the eastern markets.

Farmers nearer to the Illinois River hauled their wagonloads of bulging grain sacks over to the Illinois River, where it could be stored in warehouses until loaded aboard steamboats at Peru – most often the head of navigation on the river – so it could be

SEASONAL ALLERGIES Itchy eyes and throat…sneezing and post-nasal drip… sinus infection and cough/cold…all of these symptoms are commonly related to seasonal allergies. Some people can take allergy medication a few times a year and manage their symptoms. Other people suffer with allergies and sickness despite taking the medications to manage their symptoms.

IT’S TIME FOR YOU TO STOP SUFFERING!!!

There is now a prescription allergy treatment done in the convenience of your home. It treats the cause of allergies virtually eliminating the symptoms.

Continued from page 11 shipped south to St. Louis, or even all the way to New Orleans. In 1831, a young Abraham Lincoln signed on as a crewman to sail a flatboat owned by New Salem merchant Denton Offutt down the Sangamon River to the Illinois and then on to New Orleans.

Among the flatboat’s cargo were “bags of corn.”

At each point on its journey from northern Illinois to grain markets, either south to St. Louis or New Orleans, or east to New York, sacks of grain had to be handled numerous times, making grain shipment an extremely labor-intensive business.

Individual sacks had to be moved from farm to wagon to Chicago or St. Louis warehouse to steamboat or flatboat to New Orleans or Buffalo warehouse to sailing ship or Erie Canal boat to the grain’s final destination, where it had to be unloaded yet again.

And then the railroads arrived, along with drastic effects, both positive and negative, on Chicago and St. Louis. St. Louis – the Gateway to the West – knew its prominence depended on its access to the Mississippi River’s steamboat traffic. Hundreds of steamboats delivered their cargoes to the Levee – a broad slope along the riverfront – where slaves hauled sacks and barrels and crates to warehouses

and between arriving and departing vessels.

The city’s merchants quickly realized that railroads were antithetical to steamboat shipping on which the city relied. They were so opposed to railroads, in fact, that they forbade bridging the river at their city. As a result, the first bridge across the Mississippi was at Rock Island, which was immediately opposed in court by steamboat interests. Successfully arguing in favor of the bridge in Hurd v. Rock Island Railroad Company was attorney and former river flatboat crewman Abraham Lincoln.

By its opposition to a rail link with the east coupled with geographic problems that didn’t affect Chicago plus rapid advances in grain shipping technology, St. Louis was quickly surpassed as a major grain shipping point.

The main advance in technology that had the biggest impact on grain shipment was the invention of practical grain elevators, which allowed grain to be removed from all those sacks, slashing labor costs. Joseph Dart, a Buffalo, New York, warehouse owner, is credited with inventing the grain elevator in 1842. Essentially, the commercial grain elevator was a collection of vertical grain bins in which grain of various kinds and quality could be separately stored outside of

LETTER TO THE EDITOR For Pearl Harbor Day

To the Editor: Relevant to Pearl Harbor Day, here is a story about a Sandwich man who was a naval dentist stationed in Manila on that fateful day. It is from a book, “Prisoner of the Emperor,” which I discovered in the Sandwich Stone Mill Museum, but which is also available from the Sandwich library. Here is how it begins: “On Dec. 7 Stanley W. Smith, popped some corn his wife had sent from Sandwich, not yet knowing of the devastation at Pearl Harbor. But then, the next morning, “The junior supply officer from the navy yard came by our quarters …short of breath and obviously carried away with excitement. He told us the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor, we were at war, and to get on the ball!” (p. 6).

Now, quoting from the inside cover of the book: “On New Year’s Day 1942, Stanley W. Smith was captured by Japanese forces marching into Manila. Before the war was over, the 36-year-old Navy dentist from Sandwich, Illinois, would be moved to three different prisoner of war camps and eventually to a prisoner of war hospital in Kobe, Japan.

“Smith’s struggle to survive in a foreign culture and under conditions that were both primitive and cruel reflect the faith

• REFLECTIONS

Continued from page 12 sacks until shipment. The grain was elevated using steam power to the upper bins, where gravity allowed it to flow through chutes aboard anything from canal boats to rail cars.

While the grain elevator was invented in Buffalo, it was really perfected in Chicago. There, huge grain elevators were quickly built along the Chicago River on South Water Street.

Grain from Chicago’s hinterland was transported to the elevators by wagon, rail, and canal boat, where it was graded by quality and then loaded into the elevated bins, all by machinery instead of on the backs of stevedores.

Which is where geography comes in. Because the Chicago River and Lake Michigan are both pretty much immune to floods, those huge grain elevators could be built right on the riverbank. The Mississippi floods on a regular basis, meaning elevators at St. Louis could not be built along the river or they’d be flooded one or more times every year. Geography, coupled with the city’s disdain for railroads, meant St. Louis was quickly supplanted as a major grain transshipment point. Cut off from rail lines heading east, the rest of its economy was

harmed, too.

Meanwhile, Chicago’s economy, based on roads, canals, railroads and lake shipping exploded, making it the premier city in the nation’s Middle West. Thanks to its extensive transportation web, Chicago’s hinterland underwent a massive expansion that, in economic terms at least, eventually took in entire states including Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa. The grain, timber, livestock, iron ore and other commodities that flowed in a seemingly never-ending and always growing stream into the city by the lake led to at least one historian to dub it, without exaggeration, “Nature’s Metropolis.”

So, a week into meteorological winter and a couple weeks before astronomical winter, as farmers begin wrapping up another season, another year’s crops are well on the way to markets near and far. It’s the end of another year’s cycle that’s been going on here in the Fox Valley for more than 180 years thanks both to accidents of geography and the genius of people who were interested in making a buck and who ended up changing the world.

BRIEFS Police seek multiple suspects in Best Buy robbery, attack

DeKALB – Police are searching for three to four suspects who stole several computers and pepper sprayed an employee who tried to stop them Dec. 2 at the Best Buy at 2074 Sycamore Road, DeKalb.

In a news release Dec. 4, police said two men and a woman who was wearing a blonde wig entered the store at 8:37 p.m. Dec. 2 and took several MacBook computers out of an unlocked storage cage at the store. As they left the store, one of the suspects pepper sprayed an employee who was blocking the exit.

DeKalb police Cmdr. Bob Redel said the person who was sprayed did not need to go to the hospital.

All three suspects then drove off in a black Jeep Compass, which police said had a temporary registration and a partial plate number of “11.”

Anyone with information on this crime is encouraged to call the DeKalb Police Department at 815-748-8400 or Crime Stoppers at 815-895-3272. Callers can remain anonymous

First-graders in Mrs. Rogowski’s class at W.W. Woodbury Elementary School worked with their families to disguise a turkey. Students were instructed to hide their turkey from Farmer Brown to save it from being Thanksgiving dinner. Featured are Ty Leopold with his leprechaun, Seth Skillin and his ornament, Madison Reedy with her troll, Tayton Jandt with a Cubs player and Bailey Brummel with a gumball machine.

SPIN THE WHEEL

VFW names Patriot’s Pen, Voice of Democracy winners SHAW MEDIA On Veterans Day, Nov. 11, representatives of Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 1486 and its Auxiliary of Sandwich presented the awards for the local winners of this year’s Voice of Democracy and Patriot’s Pen Competitions.

The Patriot’s Pen Contest is the Veterans of Foreign Wars’ scholarship program for grades 6-8, with the national winners receiving prizes upward to the first-place prize of $5,000 and an all-expenses-paid trip to Washington, D.C. This year the students were required to write a 300- to 400-page essay on the theme “The America I Believe In.“ Local entries are judged by members of the Post and Auxiliary, and the winner advances to the district level.

This year’s local winners were Elizabeth Kruger, first place, from Sandwich Jr. High; Jocelyn Peshia, second

place, from Newark Middle School; and Hannah Zieman, third place, from Sandwich Jr. High. The winners were awarded cash prizes from VFW Post 1486 and its Auxiliary.

The Voice of Democracy is the Veterans of Foreign Wars’ premier scholarship program. Each year approximately 40,000 high school students compete for more than $2 million in scholarships and incentives. The students compete by writing and recording an audio essay on a patriotic theme, this year’s theme being “My Responsibility to America.”

Local entries are judged by members of the Post and Auxiliary, and the winner advances to the district level.

This year there were six entries from Sandwich High School and the local winners were Seth Weeks (first place), Elizabeth Tutor (second place), and Lindsay Lee (third place). The winners were awarded cash prizes from VFW Post 1486 and its Auxiliary.

SANDWICH – The need for nonperishable groceries and donations is expected to be great this year, according to the Sandwich Lions Club’s Ambassadors for the Franklin Mall Christmas Project.

Red plastic tubs are placed in more than 20 businesses and churches throughout the city, ready for donations that will help those having a “tough time of it” who live within Sandwich School District 430.

Last year, food boxes were taken to more than 250 addresses.

Lots of peanut butter, dried beans, pastas, boxed dinners, canned goods and other nonperishables are needed to fill boxes delivered to families and individuals before Christmas. The last

pickup date is Wednesday, Dec. 14, with delivery on Saturday, Dec. 17.

Personal items, such as new shampoo, hand soap, toothbrushes and toothpaste, as well as individually wrapped toilet and facial tissue, can be contributed.

There’s even another part of the project. It’s called “Christmas Cheer Baskets” that are filled with homemade candy and cookies, then delivered to about 400 shut-ins and the elderly in Sandwich on Christmas Eve. They are taken by six Santa Clauses and their helpers to those at Willow Crest Nursing Pavilion, Sandwich Rehabilitation Center, Ironwood, the Sandwich Manor, Valley West Community Hospital and those living in their homes on Christmas Eve. Financial contributions are also appreciated. A gift card for groceries at

Art’s Food Market is placed in each of the boxes of food. Every dollar contributed to the Franklin Mall Christmas Project is used for the project that’s administered by the Sandwich Lions Club. There are no administration costs.

The project was started by the late Frankie and Peg Mall more than 60 years ago when they took groceries to some young families. Frankie and Peg never labeled the families as being needy. Frankie would just say they were having a “tough time of it.” When other townspeople heard about their efforts that expanded every year, they gave the couple a few dollars and/or some groceries to help out.

The Christmas sharing effort grew, with many volunteers helping by contributing financially, with food for the boxes and with homemade candy and cookies for the Cheer Baskets.

When the couple’s health began to deteriorate, Frankie asked the Sandwich Lions Club to take over. The club agreed to administer the project if the

GOING TO HEAVEN Our number one priority in this life must be to go to Heaven. Jesus says in Matthew 6:33, “But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.” Our soul is the most precious thing we have, (Matthew 16:26). There is nothing that can equal its value.

It is easy in today’s society to get caught up in the pursuit of THINGS if we are not careful. Our Lord says in Matthew 6:19-21, “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in Heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is there will your heart be also.”

Where are your treasures?

Every day we need to tell ourselves that the main thing in this life is to go to Heaven, “Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.” (Colossians 3:2). Heaven is a prepared place (John 14:2-3) for a prepared people. There is no way that Heaven can be described so we as mortal human beings can understand how wonderful it will be (1 Corinthians 2:9).

A person will not accidentally go to Heaven. It begins with baptism for the forgiveness of sins (Acts 2:37-38; Mark 16:16; Romans 6:1-10), and continues by being faithful to God’s Word until we die (Revelation 2:10).

Therefore we must be students of His Word (2 Peter 3:18).

The music duet Alathea from Unicoi, Tennessee, will perform a Christmas concert at the Federated Church in Sandwich at 7 p.m.

Friday, Dec. 9.

Alathea’s musical style can be described as pure mountain folk music. They use a variety of instruments including the dulcimer, mandolin, guitar and several percussion instruments. Alathea has performed many times in Northern Illinois over the years and is a regional favorite.  The Federated Church is at 403 N. Main St. in Sandwich. There is no admission charge. A free-will offering will be received.

The event is co-sponsored by Cup of Cold Water Ministries and the Federated Church.

Alathea travels around the country and across the world averaging over 150 events each year that include NPR’s Woodsongs Old Time Radio Hour, Pennsylvania’s Musikfest, Bristol’s Rhythm and Roots Reunion, as well as performances in Europe and Asia.Â

By PAT WALLIS news@kendallcountynow.com SANDWICH – Santa and his little elves again will be delivering about 100 containers of homemade treats to residents of the Sandwich Manor on Christmas Eve.  Additional Santa teams will be making visits to about 300 more shutins, the elderly and others throughout Sandwich, delivering Christmas Cheer Baskets filled with homemade candy and cookies.

Many dozens of cookies and pieces of candy are needed for the project by the afternoon of Thursday, Dec. 22, so they can be taken Christmas Eve by teams of Santas and helpers to those who are at Willow Crest Nursing Pavilion, Valley West Community Hospital, Sandwich Rehabilitation Center, Ironwood, Sandwich Manor and in their homes.

This is just one element of the Franklin Mall Christmas Project that’s

been a part of Sandwich’s history for more than 60 years.  It started in the early 1950s when the late Frank and Peg Mall began taking groceries for a festive Christmas dinner to those “having a tough time of it,� and delivering sweets to shut-ins and the elderly living alone on the night before Christmas.

Peg would make cookies and candy, and Frankie, dressed as Santa, would drive around town taking the goodies to older folks on Christmas Eve. By the following year, others started to help by making cookies and candy, then helping to wrap plastic baskets with cellophane and tie them with a ribbon.

Frankie’s brother-in-law, Paul Reinhart, became another Santa Claus who walked through snow, taking treats to houses that might only have one window lighted. The two Santa Clauses would ring a strap of sleigh bells or a cow bell when walking to the houses, so the residents wouldn’t be alarmed by a knock on the door after dark.

The Sandwich Lions Club, administrators for many years of the Franklin Mall Christmas Project, has announced that the candy and cookies will be packed in containers starting at 6 p.m. sharp on Thursday, Dec. 22, at the United Church of Sandwich, 521

Leaders Are Servants “You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high ofďŹ cials exercise authority over them. Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant, and whoever wants to be ďŹ rst must be slave of all. For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.â€? —Mark 10: 42-45 NIV

SM-CL0405254

I

n order to be a good leader one must be willing to be a servant.

Government ofďŹ cials and political leaders who do their job well invariably stress that they are public servants and therefore take pains to actually serve and beneďŹ t the public. Religious leaders must do the same, serving their ocks as a good shepherd does his sheep. Jesus did not consider it beneath him to wash the feet of his apostles on the night before he was arrested. And in our working lives, we all know that the best managers and supervisors aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty and serve their employees almost in the same way that a loving parent serves his or her children, educating them and helping them when necessary with difďŹ cult tasks. We are all called to serve God by serving our fellow man and in the process of doing so we lead by example. Don’t consider it beneath you to serve others.

Service to others is our highest calling. – Christopher Simon

Contributions can be made by mailing checks, made out to the Franklin Mall Christmas Project, to the Sandwich Lions Club, P.O. Box 32, Sandwich, IL 60548. Donations can also be made by mailing checks or taking them to the 1st National Bank, Attn: Deb Krafft, 100 W. Church St., Sandwich, IL 60548.

Depression is common in seniors and most of the elderly population that suffers from it unfortunately doesn’t share that information with others.

Now that winter is arriving, seniors are especially susceptible to seasonal depression.

The cold weather makes it difficult to do much outdoors, and many seniors spend too much time isolated alone indoors. Darkness arrives much earlier in the day and many days the sun doesn’t even make an appearance.

The holidays, which are such a joyous time for most Americans, can have the opposite affect on seniors. If they’ve recently lost their spouse or other loved ones, they might be so sad and lonely that not even the yearly traditions, grand parties and time spent with friends and other family members can help them shake the winter blues.

If you’re the primary caregiver for your Mom or Dad, you should understand that they may seem perfectly happy most of the year, and they very well could be, but they still can suffer seasonal depression.

Take note of how they’re acting as winter arrives.

Do they have less energy? Are they complaining about being tired all the time? Are they over-eating or not eating enough? Have they gained or lost weight? Are they sleeping more than usual? Are they disagreeing with you when you try to get them do things? Are they irritable? Do they want to be alone often?

If you’ve answered “yes” to any of these questions, they may be suffering from seasonal depression.

Few people are happy every single moment, every day of their life, but those who suffer prolonged feelings of sadness should seek help.

The first step toward recovery is meeting with your primary physician to let them know how you’re feeling. Counseling therapy, light/phototherapy and medications are some of the more common ways seasonal depression is treated.

BRIEF

To add to holiday festivities, Classic Cinemas C​ inema 7 Theatre​, 101 Duvick Ave. (at Route 34) in Sandwich, will present “​ National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation​” at 7 p.m. Dec. 14.

Admission is $5.

Originally released in 1989, “Christmas Vacation” tells the story of the Griswold family and their plan for a big family Christmas, which predictably turns into a big disaster. Starring Chevy Chase, Beverly D’Angelo and Randy Quaid, the movie has become one of the most popular Christmas holiday comedies.

Classic Cinemas, based in Downers Grove, is a family-owned company operated by Willis, Shirley and Chris Johnson. Established in 1978, Classic Cinemas operates 111 screens at 14 locations across northern Illinois. For more information on Classic Cinemas, visit​ ​www.classiccinemas.com​.

To submit a news item to the Sandwich Record, email news@kendallcountynow.com

We have been enjoying mild late fall temperatures and our plants have been slow to respond to the normal signals to go dormant. Trees and shrubs finally received the message, yet our lawns remain pretty green and maybe even needed one more mowing before the big snow.

There are some landscape plants that have always needed a bit of help to get through the winter with limited damage. Whether brand new to your yard or established for years, broadleaved evergreens like rhododendrons or boxwoods can be heavily damaged by winter sun and drying winds. If the crystal ball actually worked, it would be telling us to potentially expect more damage next spring as these kind of plants are reluctant to go dormant in a normal year.

There are some ways to prevent or slow the damage to those broadleaved shrubs. The first thing is to be sure they are well-watered as we enter the really cold days of winter. A temporary winter wind screen will slow the drying winter winds, in turn slowing water loss through the leaves of our broadleaved plants and the needles of our evergreens.

In addition, organic mulches have several great qualities to benefit

DOWN THE GARDEN PATH Richard Hentschel plants. The one that will be in play more this time of year is how they slow the change in soil temperatures, allowing a longer time for the plants to adjust to our winter weather.

Additionally, the mulch will help retain that good soil moisture after you have been watering. The root system will absorb and move as much water into the leaves and needles as possible.

While a mulch layer during the growing season should be only 2 to 3 inches deep, mulches for the winter can be deeper with the expectation that you will remove the extra next spring. The deeper mulch will provide additional protection. Remember not to place the mulch up the trunk of trees or fill in the base of shrubs.

Rodents love to live and eat under the cover of that mulch.

Another direction to go is one of using an anti-desiccant spray, especially on broadleaved evergreens. These materials actually protect by forming an air tight seal over the leaves, preventing water loss. Always read and

follow product labels, which provide much information, including how best to apply and benefit from their use.

Typically, they are applied on days above freezing and may need to be reapplied very early next spring or late winter to provide the protection we want.

When you have done all you can to protect newly planted and established winter sensitive plants in your yard, Mother Nature also can help. Plants buried in snow are much more protected that those out in the open with bare ground. To encourage that, perhaps snow fence strategically placed in the landscape is in order.

One last thought: Be sure to remove the garden hose from the house so your frost-free spigot remains that way. After that final watering, drain the hose before storing it for the winter.

BUSINESS NEWS

Tourism marketing draws dollars into county I hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving! It’s appropriate to count our blessings every day but especially during the holiday season.

I know we’re all thankful for the holiday events that are part of the tradition of our lives that our communities plan for us to enjoy. DeKalb County is decked out with festive decorations and fairy tale lighting that makes the holidays glow warmer in our hearts.

We encourage you to shop local when assisting Santa and his elves with their list. For every $100 you spend with our local businesses, $68 of it goes right back into our community.

It’s such a pleasure to be able to find a place to park, get personal assistance and know that you are giving back to those who make DeKalb County a wonderful place to live, work and play. Dine out often and shop until you drop right here at home!

We’ve been busy working with event planners for the Mid-American Conference Volleyball Championships that were hosted at Northern Illinois University, Nov. 16 to 22.

Seven visiting teams came to compete for the MAC Volleyball Championship. More than 400 hotel room nights were booked for this event.

A source at NIU reported that 2,100 visitors were here for the tournament.

We are happy to share that Coach

DCCVB VIEW Debbie Armstrong Ray Gooden and the Huskies won the title. The team advances to the NCAA National Championships. Congratulations and best of luck at the next level!

Go Huskies!

Some of the other larger events that will be hosted in the area in 2017 will bring millions of dollars and thousands of visitors to DeKalb County.

The NIU Convocation Center will host the Farm Show, IESA state wrestling championships, Cheer Group Competitions, Supersectional basketball, the MS Bike Ride, STEAM Fests and a Thomas Rhett concert, to name a few. Rich Harvest Farms Golf Course (NIU golf team’s home course thanks to alum and owner Jerry Rich) will be home to the NCAA Women’s and Men’s Golf Championships for the first time in history from May 19-31.

More than 60 teams will compete, bringing their families and fan base with them. These events drive the economic engine for local businesses and provide key visibility for the region.

Our marketing campaign is in full swing. The DCCVB marketing strategy is focused on reaching leisure visitors. We placed several digital and

print advertisements for consistent brand awareness to promote DeKalb County. A half-page ad ran in Chicago Parent Magazine reaching 75,000 readers. The Northwest Quarterly also ran a half-page print that reached 85,000 readers including a complimentary cover feature on the 2016 DeKalb Kite Fest.

More than 7,000 printed visitor guides were shipped to our visitor kiosk partners during the last quarter, which included 1,000 sent to the Chicago Amtrak station. We thank the Illinois Office of Tourism for that new opportunity. The new 2017 DeKalb County Visitor Guide will be available in January. It will be complemented by an interactive version that will be online at dekalbcountycvb.com.

Speaking of websites, we launched a new site at the end of September.

Tourism marketing is visual. Photos and video are staples that destination marketing organizations must include in a successful marketing campaign.

The new website is flush with photos, it’s easier to navigate and mirrors our marketing campaign. Website views are up 60 percent over the same period as last year.

Three new videos that highlight attractions and events are in the works.

They will be posted on the website and YouTube channel soon.

Finally, the DCCVB quarterly

WCC’s partnerships pay dividends SHAW MEDIA The Health Professions and Public Service Division at Waubonsee Community College is well-known for its education of those in the public and private sector. These include law enforcement professionals, emergency medical technicians and paramedics, firefighters and nurses.

Ask Dr. Michelle Evans, assistant dean for Health Professions and Public Service, why Waubonsee’s training is exceptional, and one of the things she’ll cite is having faculty members who are highly connected and active in their fields. Such professional experience not only informs the college’s curricula, it also provides a built-in network of contacts when graduates step out into the world seeking employment.

“The combination of our partnerships in the greater health professions and public service community and the high caliber of instruction

from both full-time and adjunct faculty is key to our success in placing well-prepared students in their careers,” said Dr. Evans.

As dean of Health Professions and Public Service, Dr. Jess Toussaint further emphasizes the contributions of community partners who provide opportunities for students to get real experience in their fields.

“It’s because of our partnerships in the community with health care providers and professional services that we can provide both the educational foundation and employment experience that leads to better opportunities for our graduates,” Dr.

Toussaint said.

And as Dr. Toussaint points out, these pros typically stay and work in the district upon graduation, which delivers a great return on taxpayers’ investment.

“Our graduates are highly regarded because people know that they will be well-trained and prepared not only to do their jobs, but to promote leadership and teamwork within their professions,” added Dr. Evans.

Headquartered at the Aurora Fox Valley Campus, the Health Professions and Public Service Division includes the following disciplines: criminal justice, emergency medical technician, fire science, health care interpreting, health information technology, human services, interpreter training, legal interpreting, medical assistant, certified nurse assistant, nursing, phlebotomy, sign language, surgical technology and therapeutic massage.

leisure event newsletter went out to more than 6,000 subscribers. The DCCVB calendar of events is the No. 1 area that visitors view online. The other top pages are the home page, interactive map, shopping landing page and downloadable brochures. Check out the new site at: dekalbcountycvb. com.

As you can see, we’re very busy promoting DeKalb County to generate economic impact from tourism spending. Our ongoing efforts are reflected in the dollars spent by visitors, which have been up the past seven years in a row. In 2015, dollars spent reported in at $91.3 million.

We wouldn’t be able to grow the visitor dollar amounts that go back to the region without local partner stakeholders and the Illinois Office of Tourism Local Tourism Certified Bureau Matching Grant. Investing in tourism marketing is vital to a healthy economy locally, statewide and nationally.

Thank you to our stakeholders, board and tourism partners for helping us grow the economic impact that visitor spending has on DeKalb County. And remember to shop local!

Safe travels.

PREP WRESTLING

By BRIAN WEIDMAN bweidman@shawmedia.com DIXON – Sandwich didn’t have much quantity on Saturday at the Dixon Duals wrestling meet, but it definitely had some quality.

The Indians (0-4) dropped decisions against Sterling (64-16), Dixon (40-25) and Knoxville (40-25), due in part to giving up a total of 16 forfeits in those three matches.

Of the 23 contested bouts, however, Sandwich won 13 of them, with Tommy Dale (145/152), Zach Reyes (160/170) and Dylan Boyd (170/182) each going 3-0 on the day.

“We knew we were already down by about 40 points to start every dual meet,”

Sandwich coach Josh McCarty said, “so we talked about the matches that we do wrestle, we want to win more of them.

We don’t have the numbers at the varsity level to fill full lineups, so we just want to be successful as possible with what we have.”

Dale earned two technical falls and a major decision, Reyes had two pins and a technical fall, and Boyd had a pin, a technical fall and a decision on the day.

“I just want to keep grinding,” Boyd said. “The goal is to go to state and place, so I’ll just keep working hard for that. Today was a good start toward that.”

Cael Schindlbeck (106/113) and Tyler Schindlbeck (113/120) each gained two wins for the Indians.

AREA ROUNDUP

Sandwich boys basketball falls at Marian Central BOYS BASKETBALL

Sandwich Varsity: The Indians (2-4) dropped their third straight game, falling 58-38 at Marian Central in Woodstock on Friday in non-conference action. Sandwich will play its next two games on the road, traveling to Westmont and Coal City this week.

The team came out with the intensity that is needed right from the start. Zion Curry’s three 3-pointers in the first few minutes set the tone. He scored 11 of his 18 points in the first quarter which helped build a big 22-4 lead after the first quarter. Jacob Heilemeier chipped in seven points and Sawyer Allen played well with six points.

On Nov. 21, the team won 57-39 victory over Mendota Northbrook. Jayden McCluskie and Zion Curry led the charge with 13 combined points in the

How to choose the perfect Christmas tree – and keep it green SHAW MEDIA Selecting the “perfect” Christmas tree this holiday season is simply a matter of following a few steps, according to a University of Illinois Extension horticulture educator.

“Picking out the perfect tree can be a fun, memory-filled family tradition,” said Ron Wolford.

Wolford offers the following tips to help select a fresh tree for the home and keep it looking its best.

Pick a spot in your home to place the tree before heading out to buy it. “Ask yourself whether the tree will be seen from all sides or whether some of it will be against a wall,” Wolford said.

Choose a tree that fits where it is to be displayed.

For example, if the tree is displayed in front of a large window, then all four sides should look as good as possible. If the tree is displayed against a wall, a tree with three good sides would be OK. A tree with two

good sides would work well in a corner. “The more perfect a tree, the more expensive it will be,” Wolford added.

Pick a spot away from heat sources, such as TVs, fireplaces, radiators, heaters and air vents. “A driedout tree is a safety hazard,” he said.

Measure the height and width of the space you have available where the tree will be placed.

“There is nothing worse than bringing a tree indoors only to find it’s too tall,” Wolford said. “Take a tape measure with you to the farm. Trees always look smaller outdoors so measure to be sure and don’t forget to bring a cord to tie your tree to the car.”

If buying from a retail lot, Wolford recommends going during the day. “Choosing a tree in daylight is a much easier experience then trying to pick out a tree in a dimly lit lot,” he said.

“Needles should be flexible and not fall off if you run a branch through your hand. Raise the tree a few

inches off the ground and drop it on the butt end. Very few green needles should drop off the tree. It is normal for a few inner brown needles to drop,” he added.

Make sure the handle or base of the tree is straight and long enough so it will fit easily into a tree stand after fresh cuts are made for water uptake.

Store the tree in an unheated garage or some other area out of the wind if you are not putting it up right away, Wolford noted.

“Make a fresh 1-inch cut on the butt end and place the tree in a bucket of warm water. When you bring the tree indoors, make another fresh 1-inch cut and place the tree in a sturdy stand. The water reservoir of the stand should provide one quart of water for every inch of diameter of the trunk,” he said.

Be sure to keep the water level above the base of the tree. If the base dries out, resin will form over the cut end and the tree will not be able to absorb water and will dry out quickly.

Indians go 2-0 in I-8 Top Streator, Wilmington to move back to .500

By KRISTIN SHARP ksharp@kendallcountynow.com After a 1-3 start to the season, the Sandwich girls basketball team has fought its way to the .500 mark with a pair of Interstate Eight Conference wins over Streator and Wilmington.

The Indians (3-3) are now 2-0 in I-8 division games.

“We are shooting much better than we did in the first three games of the season, but still could shoot even better,” Sandwich coach Chris Johnson said. “Right now, it is amazing that 70-80 percent of our shots are coming in the lane or within 10 feet of the basket, and that is even playing against zones. So it tells me that when our field goal percentage goes up a bit more, at how well we will score throughout the season. We are still seeing the correctable errors going down each game.”

On Dec. 1, Sandwich hosted Wilmington and held the Wildcats under 20 points to clinch a 40-18 victory. The Indians built a 25-3 lead through the first quarter thanks to a 12-point effort from Ezbeydy Rivera.

With a solid lead, Sandwich used the opportunity to work on different aspects of its game and played an even second half with Wilmington.

“After the first quarter the Indians pulled the press and started working on their half-court defense and offense,” Johnson said. “The rest of the game was pretty even up, but we played all 11 players and kept rotating them, making them work with different groups throughout. We worked on some things that we may not have done normally, but this gave us a chance to experiment and keep everyone moving.”

Rivera led Sandwich with 15

“Right now, it is amazing that 70-80 percent of our shots are coming in the lane or within 10 feet of the basket, and that is even playing against zones.

So it tells me that when our field goal percentage goes up a bit more, at how well we will score throughout the season.”

Chris Johnson Sandwich girls basketball coach points while Sarah Ness scored 10 and Lixy Lopez added six.

Sandwich 41, Streator 35 (OT):

On Nov. 28, Sandwich open up a 14-point lead in the third quarter, but Streator changed its defense in the fourth quarter – and the Indians were held scoreless in the final period. Streator tied the game in the closing seconds of regulation, but Sandwich outscored the Bulldogs 8-2 in overtime.

Maddie Robinson scored 14 points before injuring her ankle in the third quarter. Maddie Dawson knocked in eight points while Kayla Mueller and Nicole Shipman scored seven of Sandwich’s eight points in overtime. Eight different players reached the scoring column.

“I was so proud of how our girls handled themselves in the game,” Johnson said. “Streator exposed some weaknesses because of our lack of height that shows how much we need to box out better.

Streator had four or five girls as tall or taller than our tallest and we did not let them get an inside game going, except for the put backs. We literally did not let them get many clean first shot attempts.”

Steven Buyansky for Shaw Media

Sandwich’s Sarah Ness (20) shoots a three-pointer against Seneca during the Tim Humes Breakout Girls Varsity Basketball Tournament at Somonauk High School on Nov. 18. Against Wilmington on Dec. 1, Ness scored 10 points during the Indians’ win.
