Village trustees split over proposed parks master plan

By MATTHEW PIECHALAK mpiechalak@shawmedia.com VILLA PARK – Developing a master plan would allow the Parks & Recreation Department in Villa Park to prioritize future programming and park improvement projects and would increase the likelihood of attaining grant funding, according to village staff and proponents of the resolution.

The Villa Park Village Board during its committeeof-the-whole meeting Monday night voted 4 to 3 to approve the resolution to hire 3D Design Services to complete the Parks & Recreation Master Plan for a fee not to exceed $29,710. The proposed resolution will appear on the formal agenda for a formal vote at the village’s May 12 regular board meeting.

Village President Deborah Bullwinkel, and trustees John Davis, Robert Wagner and Robert Taglia voted to approve

“If it helps Parks & Rec. allocate their resources better and helps us get one grant, I think it’s money well spent. A well-developed plan will help us make smart decisions.”

Robert Wagner Villa Park trustee

the resolution, while trustees Chris Aiello, Albert Bulthius and Donald Kase voted against.

During about 45 minutes of discussion, trustees debated the relevance of funding a study and the importance of addressing park issues at a time when the village is struggling to find funding for road and stormwater management projects.

“We have a lot of plans, but there’s not a lot getting done,” Bulthius said. “You can put this plan together, but by the time we get to it, we’re not go-

ing to have any money and it’s going to be outdated.”

The village board should be focused on addressing the various road projects that need to be completed first, Kase said.

“If we can’t get on the streets, then we won’t be able to get to our parks,” he said.

Aiello questioned the need to complete the study through a contractor, adding that the one goal for Parks & Recreation should be the village’s pools.

“I don’t think this plan strikes me as necessary,” Aiello said. “We’re already far

VILLA PARK – The village of Villa Park is one of 29 municipalities in DuPage County listed in a lawsuit filed by a national insurance company alleging that they failed to take necessary steps to prevent and limit damage from the flooding of April 2013.

Illinois Farmers Insurance Company and its subsidiaries filed a proposed class action lawsuit April 17 on behalf of itself, other insurance companies and all those affected by what the suit calls “reasonably manageable” rains April 17 and 18 of last year.

Villa Park Village President Deborah Bullwinkel declined to comment Thursday morning, adding that the village has not received official notice of the lawsuit.

In some areas of DuPage County, the total rainfall was greater than 7 inches during that time, according to the National Weather Service.

Had the various defendants properly prepared for the event and done their “duty to exercise ordinary care to maintain [their] property in a reasonably safe condition,” as stated in Illinois Statute, the suit alleges the damage would not have been so great.

VILLA PARK – A new business registration program to coincide with an annual fire inspection will allow village departments to keep uniform information and better communicate with the business community, Villa Park Village Manager Rich Keehner said.

“The fire inspector currently inspects all businesses, but he does not issue a certificate to place on the wall and he does not gather additional contact information,” Keehner said.

The Villa Park Village Board at its regular meeting Monday night voted 6 to 1 to approve an ordinance to establish the program, which village staff said will help create an updated data base of business information to be used for safety and potential marketing. Trustee Chris Aiello cast the lone dissenting vote.

Per the new program, the village will establish a geographic information system (GIS), which will centralize all updated business data. That data can then be used by all village departments, including the fire and police departments for safety and economic development for potential marketing, Keehner said.

“Inside the village, we have nine different departments and some have different systems that they follow to record data,” Keehner said during the April 14 board meeting. “It would be more efficient, more economical and it’s better for the [fire] department and our citizens.”

If a business owner does not want to provide information for marketing, they can make a request during inspection, Keehner said, answering a question by Trustee John Davis, who said some business owners do not want to be bothered with marketing initiatives.

The proposed ordinance included an annual fee of $25 for a registration certificate to be issued to business owners following successful completion of the fire inspection. However, a motion to remove the fee was approved by the board.

With the removal of the fee, there is no longer a legitimate purpose to approve the ordinance, Aiello said during discussion. The approved ordinance will require additional staff time to do more work which will subsequently cost the village more money, Aiello said following approval of the ordinance.

Without the fee, which would have been used to subsidize costs for software and printing certificates, the costs will be absorbed into the budget, Keehner said. There was no previous fee for the fire inspections.

Upon successful inspection, businesses will receive an annual certificate to display, Keehner said.

Volunteers power Family Shelter Services “I’ve seen and met angels wearing the disguise of ordinary people living ordinary lives.” – Tracy Chapman, singer/songwriter We see this every day at Family Shelter Service. And we saw it when scores of volunteers – called our “Event Angels – turned out on April 11 for “Carnevale: A Celebration of Hope,” this year’s annual Gala, helping us to raise nearly $200,000. Through the hard work of our volunteers, and the generosity of our supporters, Family Shelter Service is able to offer life-altering programs to individuals overshadowed by domestic violence.

Founded in 1976, Family Shelter Service has always COMMUNITY been an organization of VOICE volunteers. Volunteers staffed Maureen the first hotline, the organizaMcGuire tion’s original service, housed in a small office in a church basement. It’s hard to imagine the courage of these early hotline volunteers, performing this labor of love, often working alone, hearing stories of suffering and pain – all in an era when domestic abuse was rarely mentioned – did not even have a name.

Before Family Shelter Service had its own bricks and mortar facility, early founding families opened their homes, offering these women and children a safe haven until other arrangements could be made. One of these early families reported that they would sometimes receive a call in the middle of the night to pick up a traumatized mother and her children, waiting on a street corner in the dark.

These volunteer “angels” helped to guide Family Shelter Service to where it is today, an organization serving 2,000 individuals each year who are affected by domestic violence.

These early volunteers were part of something important, a community movement to offer safety to mothers and children with nowhere to turn. We have come a long way as a society in acknowledging domestic abuse in our midst and offering help to those affected, but unfortunately, we see stories every day where domestic abuse becomes deadly. Women now more than ever need a community of support. Each day volunteers assist us at the courthouse, in our resale shops, administrative office and on our hotline.

Our work continues and you can be a part of it. If you missed our annual Gala and would like to make a donation to our cause or learn more about volunteering, please visit www.familyshelterservice.org. Through the continued generosity of a supportive community, we can help people like our client, Gail, who wrote “I have become strong and strengthened my will to survive. This beautiful safe place does not only have to be in my dreams.”

Maureen McGuire is the marketing and communications representative for Family Shelter Service.

8OUR VIEW

State officials should listen to DuPage mayors’ priorities When mayors Joseph Broda of Lisle and Jeff Pruyn of Itasca stopped by the Suburban Life Media newsroom Friday to talk about legislative priorities for 2014, there was one common thread across all topics – Springfield’s apparent reluctance to take action on local issues.

And these aren’t just any issues – these are the ones where new state laws are required for any change to take place.

Broda and Pruyn were visiting in their roles as representatives of the DuPage Mayors and Managers Conference, a group that travels to Springfield periodically to talk with legislators about how state-level matters affect local municipalities.

Their top priorities were: • The need for the Legislature to reform public safety pensions. While Illinois took action to reform four statewide pension systems in 2013, and received a lot of attention for doing so, the local public safety pensions – think police and firefighters – were left untouched. While the state pension systems ran aground in part because of the state’s failure to fully fund them, local municipalities that have made their required payments find themselves falling behind anyway as the formulas for determining how much needs to be contributed change – for instance, as life expectancies for pension recipients rise.

• Opposing House Bill 5485, which would make “minimum manning” a mandatory topic for discussion in collective bargaining

with firefighters’ unions. There’s nothing currently to stop a union from raising the topic of how many firefighters are hired in a given department, but there’s nothing requiring a municipality to meet any such requests.

Cities and villages, the mayors said, consider staffing levels as part of their entire budgeting process – if this bill passes, they could be forced by arbitration to hire more firefighters than they can afford, thereby reducing governmental services elsewhere.

The common element in these and other issues? Most local governments work hard to be responsible when it comes to managing taxpayers’ money, but they feel that too often their hands are tied by state laws that require spending beyond what actually is needed. A bill such as the minimum manning proposal sounds well-intentioned, but given that federal guidelines already dictate the number of firefighters for each truck, it does seem counterproductive to start adding extra requirements that could lead to more spending without any benefit to residents.

It’s bad enough that Illinois has put itself in dire straits financially, and admirable that Springfield is trying to dig itself out through measures like pension reform for state employees. But we can’t forget that local governments are laboring under restrictions that force them to waste dollars they’d rather spend responsibly.

Springfield needs to act on these proposals so that our local officials can do the jobs we’ve elected them to do.

Instead, the same power brokers that run this one-party state encourage thoughtful taxpaying citizens to vote with their feet and leave Illinois. Illinois is going broke – pension time bombs, unpaid bills, residents and businesses leaving – and Springfield just keeps looking for more revenue. As the so-called “Fair Tax” push gets launched, it has never been more obvious that Illinois is indeed in a sad state of affairs.

Special window needed at Lemont post office I just wanted to Sound Off about the Lemont post office. I went there to mail a package.

One person was working in the window, where people were getting a passport. There were 12 of us waiting in line, and no one else came out the other window. I think that’s ridiculous that we had to wait more than a half-hour to mail a package.

They should have either a separate window for the passports, or they should have two people working.

VILLA PARK – Vehicles operating on diesel fuel will be subject to fines for excessive idling under a new ordinance approved by Villa Park trustees.

The Villa Park Village Board at its regular meeting Monday night voted unanimously to approve an ordinance to establish regulations prohibiting excessive engine idling of motor vehicles that operate on diesel fuel within the village.

Under the new law, the idling time for diesel-fueled motor vehicles is limited to no more than a total of 10 minutes within any 60-minute period.

The penalty for violations is $50 for the first conviction and $150 for a second subsequent conviction within a 12-month period.

The overall purpose of the

new ordinance is to “protect the public health and welfare and the environment by reducing noise, emissions and conserving fuel,” according to the ordinance.

Before the vote, Trustee John Davis made a formal motion to raise the violation fines to $75 for a first conviction, and $150 and $300 for subsequent convictions. The motion was defeated by a 4 to 3 vote, with trustees Donald Kase, Robert Wagner, Chris Aiello and Albert Bulthius casting no votes.

Davis originally proposed raising the fines during discussion at the April 14 board meeting. While drivers get the ticket, the company will usually pay the fine, Davis said.

Many loading truck companies also have fuel shutoffs to protect against idling, so there

Similar suits were filed in Cook, DeKalb, Kane, Kendall, Lake, McHenry and LaSalle counties on the same day, according to documents provided by Farmers officials.

Representatives from the DuPage County State’s Attorney’s Office, which defends the county in the event of a lawsuit, did not immediately respond to request for comment.

Farmers Insurance Media Relations Director Luis Sahagun declined to comment further on the suit, but offered a statement via email.

“Farmers has taken what we believe is the necessary action to recover payments made on behalf of our customers, for damages caused by what we believe to be a completely preventable issue, as well as prevent it from happening again,” he said.

ELMHURST – At 12 years old, Molly Wiesman of Elmhurst wanted a chance at the spotlight.

Sixteen years of performances later, Wiesman is being honored for her disability advocacy.

“For most people with disabilities, you’re in the chorus,” said Wiesman, who has cerebral palsy, a movement disorder, and Marfan syndrome, which affects her heart.

Wiesman teamed up with Tellin’ Tales Theatre founder Tekki Lomnicki for the company’s mentor program, Six Stories Up. “That was a big deal because I got to write and say lines,” Wiesman said.

Tellin’ Tales Theatre is dedicated to giving people with and without disabilities the opportunity to tell compelling stories on stage.

The theatre has chosen to honor Wiesman with the first TaleBlazer Award at the second annual Fashion Forward benefit. The fashion show and gala features models with and without disabilities in custom-made attire by local designers.

“We decided to give the award to two people. One with a disability and one without a disability,” Lomnicki said.

Simone LaPierre also will be honored with the TaleBlazer Award. Lomnicki said LaPierre and Wiesman demonstrate the theatre’s mission to break

down barriers between those with and without disabilities.

“I feel that it’s important to mix both worlds because we learn from each other,” Lomnicki said.

Beyond their collaboration on a 10-minute performance, Wiesman said Lomnicki helped her when she transitioned from Acacia Academy in La Grange, where she went to middle school, to York High School.

She remembered kids would ask why she talked funny. She developed self-confidence issues, but Lomnicki said that’s not unique.

“I may have a self-esteem issue because I have a disability, whereas a person without a disability may have a self-esteem issue about something totally different,” said Lomnicki, a little person.

As a high schooler, Lomnicki convinced Les Zunkel, now a member of the theatre’s board of directors, that she deserved a spot on stage when Zunkel was casting a York performance four decades ago. During his 36-year career at York, teaching speech, leading the drama department and even serving as assistant principal, Zunkel met Wiesman and many of her family members before her.

“Knowing the mission of Tekki’s Tellin Tales Theatre it was sort of a match made in heaven,” said Zunkel of introducing Wiesman to Lomnicki.

He praised Wiesman’s

“Overall, if you’re letting a truck idle for an hour, that’s a lot of fuel being dumped,” Davis said.

The new ordinance will provide protection for residents living adjacent to trucking companies, Wagner said.

61st Annual

Couple delivers baby along I-88 en route to hospital

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com Last week, Liz Shishkoff’s sister was in town and gave Shishkoff and her husband, Ray, a book, suggesting he read the chapter about what to do if you have to give birth in an emergency.

“I never got around to the reading,” Ray said Tuesday afternoon at Elmhurst Memorial Hospital. “That would’ve been nice.”

Ray did fine without it, however, when earlier that day the Glen Ellyn couple had to take the birth of their first child into their own hands after Liz went into labor.

Monday night, Liz said she felt what seemed like contractions, so the couple started timing them before going to sleep.

“Apparently I was the only one that went to sleep,” Ray said.

At about 2 a.m. Tuesday, Liz said the contractions intensified. After calling the doctor, the couple hopped in the car to drive to Adventist Hinsdale Hospital, but had to stop the trip short.

“By the end of the next contraction she said, ‘Pull over now,’ ” Ray said.

The Shishkoffs parked off eastbound Interstate 88 near

Route 83 in Oak Brook. Ray called the paramedics, but their first born wasn’t going to wait, so he helped deliver the baby girl.

At 4:05 a.m., Ray wrapped up Charlotte River Shishkoff, 7 pounds, 20 inches, in his sweater and handed her to Liz. Ray said if the couple had known the baby was that close to delivery they wouldn’t have tried to make it to the hospital, but both he and Liz said they were just grateful everyone was healthy and doing well.

“Once she was born, it didn’t matter how long the paramedics took to get there,” Liz said.

After the paramedics arrived, the couple was taken to Elmhurst Memorial Hospital.

“I called my mom and said, ‘So, it’s a girl ... I kind of just had to deliver her on the side of I-88,’” Ray said, with a laugh.

Liz said during the delivery she wasn’t scared, and just tried to stay the moment and get through the situation.

The couple said they planned on having two kids close together, but might hold off on that for a little while.

“I think when she came out and I wrapped my sweater around her it kind of hit me all at once,” he said. “It was like a waterfall of emotion or something – it was crazy.”

DuPage County mayors: Public safety pensions not sustainable

By ED MCMENAMIN emcmenamin@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – Mayors from DuPage County are back after lobbying Springfield for public safety pension reform earlier this month, but they hope to keep the topic in the forefront until lawmakers enact change.

Itasca Mayor and DuPage County Mayors and Managers President Jeffery Pruyn, Lisle Mayor Joesph Broda and others in the organization said police and fire pensions have become unsustainable as the unfunded portions of the funds have ballooned in the past decade.

The group is looking to increase employee contributions and increase the retirement age or years of work required to receive the pension.

The mayors also want to curb the yearly compounded 3 percent cost of living adjustment, which they name as the biggest culprit.

“Basically, policemen retire in their early 50s, and

Itasca Mayor Jeff Pruyn (from left), Lisle Mayor Joe Broda and DuPage Mayors and Managers Conference Executive Director Mark Baloga meet Friday with Suburban Life Media staff members to discuss legislative issues.

20 years later their pensions double,” Pruyn said.

The mayors said the compounded increase is exacer-

bated by sweeteners added up with the number of current over time by Illinois lawmak- employees. ers and the fact the number of The result, they said, is beretired workers are catching tween 2004 and 2010, municipal contributions to public safety pensions more than doubled, from $247 to $511 million, but average funding levels dropped from about 64 percent to 55 percent.

As the unfunded liability grows, larger percentages of municipal property taxes go toward paying the annual pension contribution. For example, all of Burr Ridge’s municipal property taxes now go toward paying public safety pensions, DuPage County Mayors and Managers Executive Director Mark Baloga said.

Opponents to the reforms touted by the DuPage County Mayors and Managers claim floundering pension funds are not caused by workers who contributed their share but by municipalities that underfunded the plans, poor investment returns and inflated actuarial predictions for returns.

The mayors added if the legislature does not immediately reform public safety pensions, they need to at least remove a penalty provision.

The provision states by 2015, municipalities must fund pensions to a level of 90 percent, amortized to 2040, or risk having local revenue garnished.

“We need to see a delay of

the trigger date of that penalty provision,” Baloga said. “If they’re going to kick (reform) down the road, they need to kick the whole thing down the road.”

Pruyn, Baloga and Broda met Friday with Suburban Life Media’s editorial staff to discuss pension reform and the group’s opposition to a “minimum manning” bill, which would make fire department manning levels a mandatory subject of firefighter contract arbitration proceedings. The DuPage County Mayors and Managers names both issues as 2014 legislative priorities.

They resist the “minimum manning” bill because requiring a municipality to maintain a certain number of firefighters could force it to hire more than they could afford, Pruyn and Broda said.

“We could end up having to cut equipment,” Broda said.

“You might have the personnel but not the equipment for them to use.

“We actually see it as damaging to public safety.”

During the meeting with the editorial staff, Broda, Pruyn and Baloga mentioned another legislative issue – giving nonhome-rule municipalities more freedom in how they expend hotel-motel taxes.

Currently, non home-rule communities only can spend their hotel-motel taxes on tourism-related expenses. The DuPage County Mayors and Managers supports a bill which would allow nonhome-rule communities to place up to 50 percent of those revenues in the general fund, and the other 50 percent or more would remain in tourism.

“The village of Itasca, we have 8,700 people and 1,100 hotel rooms,” Pruyn said. “We get over $1 million a year in hotel tax which, right now, and I can’t even use to fix the street in front of the hotel.”

Broda and Pruyn said even if the law was changed, they likely still would devote the majority of the funds to tourism but would benefit from the added flexibility for a portion of the funds.

“I’d be foolish if I used 50 percent ... for general revenue when I’ve got three hotels. I want to keep them turning,” Broda said.

Restaurant reviews

Adventure beckons at HB Jones in Elmhurst ELMHURST – As I approached HB Jones, I only had one goal in mind: to climb Mount Everest. Let me explain.

My research into the Elmhurst restaurant called HB Jones, aka Hamburger Jones, started last month. Normally, I rarely research an unfamiliar restaurant beforehand, other than to see if there’s a dress code, but the stories surrounding HB Jones and its menu are as entertaining as the eatery itself.

A backstory has been created around the adventures of fictional character Horatio B. Jones. One tale has him descending Mount Everest until his expedition is snowed in, and then credits his “unyielding hunger for his favorite food” for inspiring his trek to safety. Back at base camp, he was rewarded with a burger of “Everest proportions.”

For my adventure, I checked the online menu and went to the burger section where I saw the “Jones Climbs Everest” burger – three 10-ounce patties, cheeses and an array of toppings, accompanied by fries. This was the burger waiting for Jones after he returned, and if I finished one, I would get my name on the wall and a T-shirt.

At that moment, it became my goal to consume that burger and make the metaphorical climb.

As I walked in with hunger on my side, the first thing I noticed was the atypical setting. The restaurant features a greenhouse-style section, where light floods through walls of windows to turn the expansive dining area into a creatively inviting space. The restaurant is replete with big screen TVs and colorful decor touches.

As staff escorted us to a table, I started having second thoughts about my contemplated burger challenge, when I saw the copious amounts of food others were enjoying.

It wasn’t just the burgers, but the sandwiches, too, that

More than 20 sauces provide tantalizing options to shake up flavor profiles.

Beyond meat-dominated dishes including ribs, the restaurant has a variety of choices, such as a salad bar, complemented by an array of craft beer and draft options. The connecting pub

room whips up cocktails and milkshakes. One almost gave me brain freeze, because I couldn’t put down the rich vanilla concoction.

After the last slurp, I knew I wouldn’t make the summit of Everest on this visit – mostly because I couldn’t pass up an appetizer and shake. For added decadence, the menu also highlights shakes fortified with rum.

To see more photos from HB Jones, find this story online at PlanitLife.com/mysterydiner I started with the zesty chicken strip appetizer, and then ordered the “Country Road to a Coronary” burger, a tasty melding of melted cheddar and juicy beef amped up by the creamy yolk of a sunnyside-up egg. I couldn’t resist picking mac and cheese as a satisfying side dish, which helped push the summit just out of reach.

Meanwhile, my mom worked on her British burger, named for criss-crossed bacon strips meant to resemble the Union Jack flag, and commented that the meat was cooked perfectly with just the right amount of bacon. We finished off the meal with a piece of killer chocolate cake.

The enthusiastic friendliness of the staff and the warm atmosphere make it a fun destination.

Not only do I suggest you check out HB Jones for the addictive comfort food, I vow to return by this summer to try for the Everest burger, and claim that T-shirt and my name on the wall as “Mr. E. Dyner” with all the glory that goes with it.

I could also go for another milkshake.

NORTHLAKE – Willowbrook’s girls soccer team is on the young side, so with the Warriors expecting to get a pair of starters back from injury, it’s potentially a boon for the team.

Starting goalkeeper Alexis Jones and center forward and captain Melissa Rader are just returning to training with the team and working their way back into the varsity lineup.

The Warriors are hoping to become more consistent upon their return, but still have managed a winning record in their absence.

“The younger ones have done a good job,” coach Victor Marquez said. “The freshmen that moved up last year and are now sophomores have done a very good job. We have a couple freshmen starting right now that are helping us out.”

In Tuesday’s 5-3 win on the road against Leyden, the Warriors started four sophomores and two freshmen. When Jones returns, that will make five starting sophomores. The veterans of the team have been especially important with all of the younger contributors.

Lauren Carroll has commanded the defense as the team’s sweeper. Fellow senior Tiffany Brinkman is a key central midfielder. Junior Jessica Budig is a dangerous midfielder that contributes to the attack regularly. All three scored in the win against Leyden.

“Overall we have a lot of teamwork,” Marquez said.

“Certain games more players are more visible than others.”

The Warriors entered Thursday’s match against Glenbard East with a 9-7-1 record and a 2-1 mark in the West Suburban Gold. From April 11 to April 24, the War-

The last two of those matches were a part of the Niles West Tournament.

After beating Rockford Lutheran, 5-0, and Maine West, 2-0, at the tournament, the Warriors fell to the hosts, 5-3,

and tournament champion Glenbard East, 7-0.

Against Leyden, the Warriors scored first via a goal from sophomore Alyssa Spada.

The Eagles tied the match early in the second half before goals from Budig, Brinkman

and Sumeya Mchabcheb made it 4-1. Carroll later converted a penalty kick.

“At 4-1 it should have been settled, but they bounced back,” Marquez said. “I think it was an atypical game, but at the end of the day we will take the 5-3 for sure.”

ATHLETE OF THE WEEK

York Senior | Baseball Why Santos was selected: Santos pitched a shutout against Downers Grove North on Saturday in the second game of a doubleheader while going 4-for-5 at the plate in the two games.

What’s been working for you on the mound?

I just feel like I’m throwing the ball well, hitting my spots, and the defense is playing well behind me. I’ve made a lot of adjustments with hitters, too.

Do you have a preference

between hitting and pitching?

I love doing both. I want to do as much as I can to help the team win. I like hitting and driving the ball as much as I can. I like trying to dominate the other team as much as I can when I’m pitching.

What are your goals for the rest of the season?

Right now we’re .500 in conference. I hope we can win conference. We can still attain it. I also want to win a regional. We haven’t won a regional since 1996, so I think it would be pretty special.

When the Illinois High School Association introduced changes to preseason football practice in May of 2013 in hopes of making the sport safer, some local coaches predicted that was just the beginning.

Turns out they were right.

Last week, the IHSA announced that a by-law which eliminates full pads and full contact (full contact is defined as football drills or game situations where live action occurs) during the 25 days of summer camp passed by a 170-87 vote by principals and athletic directors from across the state. Practices with helmets and shoulders pad will also now be limited to 14 hours a week and a maximum of 15 out of the 25 days of summer practice.

“We believe this revision minimizes risk to football student-athletes, while allowing for the teaching of appropriate fundamentals,” IHSA executive director Marty Hickman said on

Are you going to be able to do both at Black Hawk Community College?

8SPORTS BRIEFS

Right now my plan is to mainly pitch and then DH to take less stress on my arm.

They like my swing, but think it will be better for me to focus on pitching more.

Chicago Bears summer camps coming to area

This Athlete of the Week is brought to you by

Several non-contact football camps run by the Chicago Bears and led by professional coaches will make stops in the suburbs this summer.

The five-day camps will run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. and are for kids ages 6 to 14. There will be

the IHSA website. “This is another important step in making high school football as safe as possible, while putting all of our schools on an even playing field regarding football activities during the summer.”

Glenbard South coach Jeremy Cordell was part of a committee that submitted a counter proposal to the IHSA. “Our proposal was let’s restrict the number of days you can be in pads,” Cordell said.

“I do think it’s a good move to try to keep things safe. But I think they need to be a little more conscious of the fact, maybe put a five-day cap on it or something like that.

“The analogy we used was driving a car. If you don’t drive a car until two weeks before the first test, that’s not a lot of practice. Now the first time in full pads is not until August.”

Montini coach Chris Andriano said he never liked having his players use full pads in the summer, but did have them in helmets and shoulder pads regularly. The

new rules will only impact his summer plans in that the kids won’t be able to wear shoulder pads everyday anymore.

He didn’t buy into the notion that you need to practice full tackling in the summer in order to teach proper form.

“You can teach technique without full pads,” Andriano said. “We don’t need to take people down to the ground in the summer.”

Glenbard East coach John Walters agrees that tackling in summer isn’t necessary, but he had his team in full pads regularly with the idea of safety in mind.

“With everything that has gone on now, our job is to try to minimize injuries while still teaching them to play correctly,” Walters said. “We want full gear for player safety. I would want full pads for player safety. The more pads the kids have on, the more protection they have, the safer they are.”

comprehensive skills camps for kids ages 6 to 14 and accelerated skills camps for kids ages 9 to 14.

The camps cost $399 with a $95 deposit required.

Dates and locations of local camps are: Carol Stream: Fountain View Recreation Center, June 23 to 27.

Elmhurst: Faganal Hall at Elm-

hurst College, June 23 to 27.

Naperville: All Saints Catholic Academy, June 23 to 27.

NATIONAL NURSES WEEK

Meet

Florence Nightingale Florence Nightingale was born May 12, 1820, in Florence, Italy, and was named for the city in which she was born. Her parents were from England, and they were on a tour of Europe when Florence was born.

Florence was expected to follow the path of other young, wealthy English women and marry, have children, and focus on a home life and a social life.

But Florence was extremely bright and had a strong passion for helping others. She decided the best way she could do that would to be a nurse.

In 1851, her dream was achieved, and she went off to nursing school in Germany.

When the Crimean War broke out, Nightingale heard about the horrible, unsanitary conditions of the hospitals on the front, and of all the wounded and sick soldiers who were in desperate need of better medical care. When she was offered a position as a nurse at Scutari, a military hospital in Turkey, she set off to help.

While Nightingale was at Scutari, she organized the hospital to ensure better care for the soldiers. She kept detailed records and statistics, and she discovered that the cleaner and more sanitized the conditions of the hospital were, the more people lived. She knew she had discovered something that could change hospitals and health care for the better.

When she returned home to England, she helped open a professional school of nursing for women, where a new generation of nurses were trained in her own theories of health care, sanitation and nursing.

Her inluence started to spread, as nurses trained in her tradition were practicing her theories and training other nurses. Nightingale continued to write to spread her ideas, and she died after a long life at the age of 90.

To this day, Nightingale is remembered as a reformer and nursing pioneer.

— Anne Raih, MCN
