Chicago Bear encourages kids to read SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

8YOUR WEEKEND FORECAST

WCP

WEST CHICAGO – Chicago Bear Martellus Bennett donated his time Feb. 22 at the West Chicago Public Library District as motivation to young readers to take part in the Youth Services’ Winter Reading Program. Readers who met their program goal received the opportunity to play football with the Bears tight end on the library’s gaming systems. The crowd of young patrons was divided into two one-hour sessions to meet with Bennett. The first, consisting mostly of preteens, received autographs from the football player and took many pictures. They then faced off on Xbox, and Bennett’s team won each game, according to a library news release. Patron Itzel Martinez brought a particularly special item to be autographed by Bennett: her personal copy of poet Shel Silverstein’s book “Where the Sidewalk Ends.” The gesture surprised and touched Bennett,

the release stated. Itzel and Bennett took turns reading their favorite poems from the book to each other. The Bears player is writing children’s books to be published online later this year, according to the release. He also has signed a publishing contract for a short story collection for adults. For the second session of slightly younger library patrons, Bennett convinced them to read – instead of game – with him. As parents snapped away on their cameras, their kids took turns reading with him as he helped them with the tough words, and some sat on his lap as he read to the group, the release stated. “The afternoon turned out to be even more than we imagined,” said Administrative Librarian Melody E. Coleman, who invited Bennett back to read his own work to young library patrons. “We are so very grateful to Mr. Bennett for his contribution to the success of our library program.”

Winfield to release tapes of meetings about police cuts By MARY BETH VERSACI mversaci@shawmedia.com WINFIELD – Winfield residents soon will know what was said in a series of executive-session meetings about the potential outsourcing of police department services, as village leaders prepare to release the audio recordings and minutes from those gatherings. After the Illinois Attorney General’s Office cited three meetings from March and April 2012 as being in violation of the Open Meetings Act, the Winfield Village Board of Trustees agreed to release records from those meetings at a board meeting Feb. 6. Taking this push for transparency one step further at a Committee of the Whole meeting Feb. 20, trustees said they are in favor of making public the audio tapes of all executive discussions related to the police department topic. “Now I think the board

needs to release what we said and what we did,” Trustee James Hughes said. “We need to make this right.” Although this next step was discussed, a formal vote to release the additional tapes still needs to take place. From June 2011 through April 2012, village trustees met about the possibility of disbanding its police department in favor of outsourcing services to the DuPage County Sheriff’s Office as a cost-cutting measure. The topic was a contentious one, and officials warned that

“I can’t wait for the truth to be released. I can’t wait for people to hear the truth about what was said and what we were trying to do.” Tony Reyes Trustee

the meeting recordings could contain colorful language and frank discussions that may reflect negatively on some of those involved. “When you talk about releasing those all now so that the public can catch up, I think that ought to be taken with great care,” Village Manager Curt Barrett said. Village President Erik Spande, who said he has listened to the closed-session recordings twice, urged his colleagues to review the material in question before they take a vote on whether to release all of the tapes. However, he said he is in

favor of making them public. “I think that what this will do is it will make us accountable for our words and our actions,” Spande said. The question of whether it was appropriate to hold the meetings in executive session depends on how the topic of outsourcing the police department should be classified, officials said. Personnel issues are typically discussed behind closed doors, but since the police issue would have affected an entire department, the Illinois Attorney General’s Office determined it would not be considered a personnel exclusion from the Open Meetings Act.

At the time when the meetings took place, village leaders were advised by legal counsel that holding these talks in executive session was allowed, officials said. In addition to releasing audio tapes and minutes from the meetings, the village also will explore having an outside company develop transcripts of each discussion with help from village staff, as most trustees said they were in favor of doing so at the Feb. 20 meeting. Winfield will work on releasing records from the three meetings cited by the Illinois Attorney General’s Office as quickly as possible and use that task to gauge the time and money that will be required to do the same for each of the other meetings, Barrett said. “I can’t wait for the truth to be released,” Trustee Tony Reyes said. “I can’t wait for people to hear the truth about what was said and what we were trying to do.”

some insurance policies ofer insurance beneits for hearing healthcare products and Dr. Terri Lightbody (630) 580-5777 services, most do not. In an attempt to divert the perception that your insurance carrier doesn’t ofer hearing aid coverage, they may have a program in place that they call a “discount” program. “We won’t pay for your hearing aids but we will get you a discount on them.” How is that? hat can be confusing. To better understand your insurance beneits for hearing healthcare products and services, the irst step is to consult a Doctor of Audiology. Only Audiologists are authorized to bill insurance on behalf of the patient. Technicians and hearing instrument specialists cannot bill insurance because they are not recognized by insurance companies as approved hearing aid providers.

Technicians typically work at hearing aid “stores”. he Audiologist can determine what your insurance company will cover. What you want to beware of is an insurance “discount” program that steers you toward lower quality products. hese programs are created by insurance companies for them to make money on the hearing aids you buy through an oice they have an agreement with. It’s a clever ruse: hey don’t ofer coverage on hearing aids (insurance company saves money) and make money on the hearing aids that person buys. Remember things aren’t always as they seem. You may pay less, but you also get less. To avoid being mislead regarding your insurance coverage for hearing aids, always irst consult with an Audiologist. You can be assured that you get what you’re entitled to. he Audiologist is the only professional that should determine the type of hearing aids and technologies a person needs as determined by the person’s hearing loss and health needs.

D-200 approves bond issuance, pledges to refinance debt By NATHAN LURZ nlurz@shawmedia.com WHEATON – The financial future of Community Unit School District 200 looks a little different than it did a few days ago, after the Board of Education on Feb. 26 approved the sale of about $10 million in bonds to fund critical repairs and upgrades and pledged to refinance district debt. Both actions followed several months of discussion. The $10 million bond approval and its associated fees were each passed by a 6-to-1 vote. The winning bidder was the firm Raymond James, which gave the district a 2.45 percent

interest rate – lower than the projected 2.89 percent – saving about $1 million in interest, according to district finance consultant PMA representative Robert Lewis. Only board member Jim Gambaiani voted against the issuance. Gambaiani also cast the sole no vote at the Jan. 22 meeting approving a resolution to issue the bonds. He said at the time that he was disappointed the district hadn’t put aside a more significant sum for the facility problems. The $10 million will address dire needs at 18 district schools, Superintendent Brian Harris said during the January meeting, including

$6.5 million in general energy and learning environment improvements. An estimated $3 million will pay for up-tocode fire alarm systems and carpeting in several buildings, blacktop at Wheaton North and Johnson Elementary, and new roofing for Emerson Elementary, Harris said. The board also voted to commit to refinancing its $224.8 million debt obligation to avoid escalating payments that would top out at $29.4 million in 2022. The four-step refinancing will take place during 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2019 as various bonds become callable, saving about $4.9 million in debt service if interest rates stay level.

Vice President Jim Vroman said refinancing will help relax the tax burden for future debt service and allow the district to create a viable budget. The agreement isn’t binding and keeping to the plan is up to future boards, Harris said. “We can only bank on this board passing this resolution,” he said. Harris said district staff will keep the refinancing schedule in the forefront of future financial plans. Board member Rosemary Swanson said the refinancing would allow the district to relieve some of the tax burden on residents. “I certainly understand the

taxpayers who are concerned about the burden,” she said. “But by the same token, in terms of taking care of our district and investing in it, this is a great opportunity.” Gambaiani, who also voted against the refinancing, said he was glad the district could save money through the move, but wanted it to have the discipline to earmark more than its average $300,000 a year for capital improvements. “If we’re going to enjoy these savings, I’m hoping that during the budgeting process this year that number is more like $2 million, $3 million,” he said. “We’ve got to find it somewhere.”

D-200 tries out technology used in classrooms By NATHAN LURZ WHEATON – Technology integration has been a hot topic in Community Unit School District 200. It has taken a spot near the forefront of community engagement sessions and been mentioned during recent board meetings. On Feb. 26, board members learned what students are doing with the much-discussed online resources and digital tools. Assistant Superintendent for Educational Services Faith Dahlquist presented three services teachers use to foster discussion and engagement and prepare students for the 21st century. As the world develops, she said, there will be an increased need for skills such as critical thinking, collaborative learning and creativity, rather than for content. “Some of the careers that our kids are going to have, we can’t even imagine right now,” Dahlquist said. “It’s kind of mind-boggling to think about. ‘All right, I’ve got to write and design curriculum, and I don’t know what it’s for yet.’ ”

Dahlquist paired each board member with a staff coach and a data sheet on student achievement. They then had to answer multiple choice questions about the data through the game learning program Kahoot, which came with a ticking clock sound effect and dramatic music reminiscent of “Who Wants to be a Millionaire?” She then showed them the bookmarking program Symbaloo. Board members commented on what they watched or read on a Google Document, which allows multiple users to work on and edit the same document at the same time. These interactive options put the focus on the students and allow for them to work through assignments at their own speed and for teachers to better individualize instruction, she said. “If you can kind of think of a more traditional way of doing this, I would have been doing most of the talking. I would have decided what video we were going to say,” Dahlquist said. “That’s really hard for some students who process really fast or for those students that have to repeat and go back. It’s much better to go at it at your own pace.”

WeGO pushes businesses to install AEDs By MARY BETH VERSACI

mversaci@shawmedia.com WEST CHICAGO – On April 14, 2012, tragedy struck West Chicago when then-Mayor Mike Kwasman suffered a heart attack at a local restaurant. Although CPR was performed on Kwasman by friends, including current Mayor Ruben Pineda, he died three days later at Central DuPage Hospital. Like many other businesses in West Chicago, the restaurant did not have an automated external defibrillator (AED), which West Chicago emergency personnel say may have made a difference. Hoping to make that difference in residents’ futures, community leaders are encouraging businesses across town to install AEDs. “AEDs save lives,” said West Chicago firefighter Mike Buenrostro Sr., whose son is helping with the efforts, as well. As part of this campaign being made in Kwasman’s name, Hawthorne’s Backyard Bar and Grill stepped up to lead the pack and hopefully serve as an example to other businesses by getting a defibrillator and having West Chicago firefighters train staff Feb. 27 on how

Although Hawthorne’s Backyard owner Lou Kopinski said he doesn’t recall any incident occurring at his business in which an AED would have been needed, he believes it is a smart investment and hopes others will follow suit. “You don’t want it to happen, but it could, and now we’re prepared for it,” he said. Most businesses in West Chicago do not have an AED, but they are not required to, Buenrostro said. Those who are required include places such as schools, police and fire stations and fitness centers. Although West Chicago emergency personnel typically reach their targets quickly, response times can be affected by call volume, weather or even a train passing through town and blocking a crossing, Buenrostro said. In instances like those, it could be lifesaving for the scene to have a defibrillator, which is more

The West Chicago Fire Protection District does not have a way of tracking who in town has an AED, Buenrostro said.

further, both through the restaurant’s example and other means, as well, including social media and local events such as Railroad Days. The ultimate goal would be to have an AED in every business in town, Buenrostro said. These efforts being made in Mike Kwasman’s name are something the late mayor would have led in his lifetime, he said. Before becoming an alderman and then mayor, Kwasman served on the West Chi-

cago Fire Protection District Board of Trustees, said his wife, Crystal. He had championed installing AEDs in town, so this campaign helps continue that legacy, she said. Crystal Kwasman hopes to see more lives saved through these efforts, which she calls “an honor” both to her and her late husband, and she plans to get involved. “If it’s just one more business and one life, we’ve done our work,” she said.

OPINIONS n LAST WEEK’S WEB POLL QUESTION: Do you support raising the minimum wage?

47 PERCENT: Yes 40 PERCENT: No 10 PERCENT: I have mixed feelings 3 PERCENT: No opinion

Time to move forward with Keystone XL In his fifth State of the Union Address, President Obama pledged that 2014 will be a “year of action.” Through “pen and phone,” he vowed to sidestep Congress and advance policies to create jobs for Americans struggling to find work in a tough economy. But after 5 1/2 years, the Keystone XL pipeline – which would create thousands of American jobs and boost our weak economy – is still gathering dust on the president’s desk. All this time, President Obama has delayed the construction of the pipeline by claiming it would accelerate climate change. Recently, the president’s own State Department rejected that argument when they VIEWS released their final EnvironPeter mental Impact Statement, concluding that building the Roskam Keystone pipeline will have no significant effect on the climate. The comprehensive 11-volume report went further to say that if the pipeline isn’t built, oil will be transferred by much more environmentally risky means – train, tanker or rail – resulting in up to 41.8 percent more greenhouse gas emissions. The State Department’s report confirms that Keystone would create tens of thousands of jobs and move America closer to energy independence, making Keystone a win-win policy. An overwhelming percentage of Americans are in favor of building the pipeline, and support for the project is strong among the governors whose states the pipeline will go through. Right here in Illinois, manufacturers are strongly encouraging the approval of the pipeline. Steve Romanelli, owner of Core Pipe in Carol Stream supports the construction of Keystone not just because of the obvious benefits of having a more secure and reliable source of energy, but because of the role energy plays in our manufacturing workforce. Steve and many others believe that with approval of Keystone, the U.S. could see a manufacturing resurgence, because as Steve puts it, “the lifeblood of manufacturers is energy.” Shockingly, the president is still using every possible stall tactic to delay the pipeline’s approval. Fears are growing that he will even use a Nebraska court case over the pipeline’s route as his next excuse. It is clear that when President Obama said he will lead this “year of action” he just plans to continue with more of the same. The president must not delay another day on approving the Keystone XL pipeline that will create good-paying jobs at home and unleash our energy potential.

8ENDORSEMENT

Republican governor primary: Bruce Rauner Illinois has big problems. Years of fiscal mismanagement and incompetent leadership have compromised the state’s economic future. Illinois’ five public pension systems are underfunded by more than $100 billion. The state ended 2013 with more than $7 billion in unpaid bills. lllinois’ credit rating has been downgraded five times since 2011, meaning taxpayers must pay much more in interest when the state borrows money. Moody’s Analytics predicted that Illinois will be dead last among all 50 U.S. states in job growth in 2014. It’s clear that those running state government have failed and change is long past due. On March 18, Republican primary voters have an opportunity to select the candidate they want to run against Democratic Gov. Pat Quinn in the November general election. State Sens. Bill Brady and Kirk Dillard are making a second run for the office. (Brady won the GOP nomination four years ago before losing a close election to Quinn.) Illinois Treasurer Dan Rutherford also is running, though his campaign has been rocked by sexual harassment charges leveled by a former staffer. Rounding out the field is businessman Bruce Rauner, whom we endorse. Rauner is not a career politician. In fact, this is his first run for public office. He supports term limits and, if he is elected, pledges to serve only two terms. He’s independently wealthy and will not be beholden to the special interest Mary Beth Versaci, news editor mversaci@shawmedia.com 630-427-6275

groups who have helped to corrupt Springfield. He will not be afraid to stand up to the powerful public employee unions who have resisted change. His wealth was not given to him. He earned it during a lifelong career as an investor and businessman. Rauner is blunt when assessing the state’s many problems. Workers’ compensation is crushing businesses and an impediment to job growth. Despite a recent reform measure, public pensions are overly generous and unsustainable in the long term. The state’s tax system is unduly burdensome to both taxpayers and businesses and needs to be reformed. Rauner knows big changes need to be made to get the state back on the right path. Despite the many challenges, and the fact that whoever wins the governor’s seat more than likely will have to work with Speaker Michael Madigan, Senate President John Cullerton and a Democrat-controlled General Assembly, Rauner is confident he can get the job done. He has a genuine love for Illinois and a desire to improve the quality of life here. Rauner also knows his limitations. He admits that he himself doesn’t have all the answers, but he promises to surround himself with the best and brightest and work as hard as necessary to succeed, just as he has in his professional life. Rauner has the energy, the charisma and the financial backing to stand up to Quinn in the fall and win. In the Republican primary for governor, we endorse Rauner.

There is no reason why Downers cannot fill these holes. The county has taken care of filling the holes on county streets in Downers. What is the excuse that Downers has?

By using the roadway when it is dark outside, you are risking serious injury or death by wearing dark clothing. It is often difficult for drivers to see you when you blend in with the surroundings. Use a little precaution – either wear highly visible light clothing or wear a reflective vest (a variety of good reflective gear is available online for less than $10). Using a little common sense when sharing the roadway with cars might help prevent a tragic accident.

Q&A | STATE HOUSE DISTRICT 42

Ives talks freshman record, future plans SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

In preparation for the March 18 Primary Election, Suburban Life Media contacted local candidates to gauge their views on various issues.

Below are the responses received from Jeanne Ives, who is running in the Republican race for Illinois House District 42. Ives’ opponent,

What are the biggest differences between yourself and your opponent? Ives: I have the background to fully engage in the policy debates facing Illinois. My degree in economics, tax and accounting work and time on Wheaton City Council give me the tools to impact policy. As a mother of five, I understand well the concerns of families and the pressures they face financially.

Jeanne Ives Position: Republican incumbent Age: 49 Town: Wheaton Education: Bachelor of science in economics from West Point Employment: State representative Why are you seeking re-election? Ives: I am running for re-election to continue to give taxpayers a voice in Springfield. They are an underrepresented group in committee meetings and debates. In my first term, I have established myself as a policy-oriented representative.

Adam Johnson, did not respond to Suburban Life’s questionnaire before print deadline. Some answers have been edited for length.

What do you count as your biggest accomplishments in Springfield? Ives: I helped defeat bills that would kick our problems down the road while also using my knowledge of the issues to aid the passage of good bills.

What is the biggest challenge facing Springfield and what would you do to address it? Ives: Our state’s history and reputation of corruption and pay to play politics create a climate where taxpay-

ers, businesses and those who rely on government services feel taken advantage of by politicians. … The only way to address this corruption is to expose it and prosecute offenders, so voters can make more informed decisions. Do you support the recent state pension reform bill and why? Ives: I voted for the May 2013 pension reform bill as a first step in reform. This revised bill, though, is not a first step and asks taxpayers to fund generous pensions for government workers still retiring before the age of 60 while See IVES, page 16

and Stakeholder Input, Program Needs (curriculum) and Financials. More than 70 percent of kindergartners are enrolled in full-day programs statewide, according to the release. District 34 “wants to be a part of that growing trend as much as the district’s financial profile allows,” the release stated. The district will continue to offer half-day kindergarten, as Illinois law allows parents to opt out of a full-day option, according to the release.

As part of the district’s fullday kindergarten discussions, the board wanted to guarantee supporting the program would not negatively impact other offerings in the district, the release stated. Several parents with children who will be attending kindergarten in the fall indicated to the board they would be willing to pay fees for kindergarten that they are currently paying for preschool tuition: $2,461.50, according to the release. By charging that tuition,

the board determined the school district could support transitioning two part-time sections into one full-day section of kindergarten. Those wishing to remain in a halfday program would leave at the end of the morning. If enrollment rises too high for one section, the administration will ask the board to approve an additional half-day program, the release stated. The board and administration also will annually review the fee structure to determine if changes are necessary.

The district’s 14-member Kindergarten Task Force spent eight months researching full-day kindergarten. Comprised of staff, parents, board members and administration, the task force found the program would be “in the

best interest of the students,” according to a school district news release. “The board is very pleased that they were able to approve full-day kindergarten sooner than they originally thought would be possible,” the release stated. “The (District 34) school boards have tackled this discussion many times over the years but the financials just didn’t allow for it to occur.” The task force’s work was divided into four sub-committees, including Research and Best Practices, Community

Bringing Pharmaceutical Science to Your Health From Bob Listecki, Pharmacist Q: Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS) is the biggest cause of lost work days in the U.S. What is your opinion about solutions for this condition? A: IBS is in a collection of digestive disorders related to the overall health of the cells that line the digestive system. Inlammatory bowel disease, such as Chrohn’s Disease and Ulcerative Colitis are also involved and are considered autoimmune illnesses. These patients have a lack of short chain fatty acids (SCFA), the food for the digestive system cells. When friendly bacteria in the gut consumes fructooligosaccharides (FOS) they make the fatty acids (SCFA) to “feed” and make healthy the “starving” cells. Ninety-ive percent FOS and Florajen 3 are available for about $43.00 for a two month therapy. For more information on the synbiotic therapy call or stop by for a free four page information sheet.

SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA WHEATON – Flappers, mobsters, gamblers and rum-runners filled the DuPage County Historical Museum during its 1920’s-themed Casino Night fundraiser on Feb. 28. Guests were encouraged to dress for the occasion as the museum was turned into an old-time speakeasy during one of the museum’s biggest annual events. “It’s really wonderful that this event actually happens in the museum, because people get to see what their involvement benefits, but at the same time, the pressure’s off,” said Curator Sara Arnas in a news release about the fundraiser.

Belushi, comedy group to headline MAC opening By NATHAN LURZ

Get tickets

nlurz@shawmedia.com GLEN ELLYN – As part of the opening ceremonies for College of DuPage’s new McAninch Arts Center, one of the school’s most famous alumni will take its stage. Jim Belushi, who graduated from the college in 1974 and grew up in Wheaton, will return to the school Saturday, with his improv group The Chicago Board of Comedy. “When I go back, I guess there’s always some kind of pressure to perform after all these years,” Belushi said in an email to Suburban Life. “There is also always a great deal of excitement and joy. I love College of DuPage. Those teachers changed my life.” The comedy group will give two performances. The first, at 6 p.m., is a MAC Madness fundraising event to benefit the College of DuPage Foundation, the John Belushi Scholarship Fund and other center-related programs. At 9:30

The audience takes their seats at the Dec. 31, 2013, performance of the New Philharmonic orchestra at College of DuPage as part of a sneak preview performance at the McAninch Arts Center. p.m. the show will be open to the public. The evening marks the first official performance at the center after a 14-month, $35 million renovation – the building’s first update since it was built 25 years ago – which was funded by a $168 million refer-

endum area voters passed in November 2010. The space now boasts improved acoustics, a new art gallery and classroom equipment, a coat check and a full service bar. McAninch Arts Center Director Diana Martinez said

Jim Belushi and the Board of Comedy will perform two shows Saturday at the new McAninch Arts Center at 425 Fawell Blvd. The first will be held at 6 p.m. as a fundraiser for the College of DuPage Foundation, the John Belushi Scholarship Fund, The Cleve Carney Art Gallery and Endowed Art Fund, the New Philharmonic Fund and the MAC General Fund. Tickets cost $250. Tickets for the 9:30 p.m. performance start at $44. For tickets, call 630-942-4000 or visit www. AtTheMAC.org. the renovation created a professional atmosphere in the theater. “To be able to work in such a gorgeous facility and professional facility is really a treat,” she said. “You’re not just sitting in a black box.” Martinez said the center

will serve as an ambassador to the community for the college and an entry point to other services the school provides, such as classes, job fairs and lectures. She said the college hopes to host a free summer concert series this year, in addition to existing student and professional programming to give the public more opportunities to enjoy the space. The center is part of a number of capital development projects in recent years, including the school’s Homeland Security Education Center and library, said Development Vice President and College of DuPage Foundation Executive Director Catherine Brod. Development since the referendum has doubled the amount of scholarship money the foundation has awarded, tripled the amount of donations it has received and increased the number of college donors by 150 percent, she said, and she believes the new space will only grow those numbers.

Restaurant reviews

Omega prepares your favorites to the letter DOWNERS GROVE – Everyone knows the best dinner food is breakfast food; there’s just something about eggs Benedict or juicy blueberry pancakes that hits the spot, especially late night. So when my fellow diner and I originally scanned Omega Restaurant’s menu, we thought we’d head straight for the breakfast section – that is, until we saw its fully stocked dinner menu. With gourmet burgers, more than a dozen different sandwiches, steak, seafood and other dishes to choose from, we spent about 20 minutes just deciding on what to order. We kicked off the dining experience with Omega’s Famous Greek Saganaki – a fried cheese dish and, in my opinion, the best decision of the night. The appetizer was brought to the table in a personal-sized skillet and then lit on fire in front of us. Giant flames spread across the saganaki, providing not only mouthwatering flavor, but a surprising show, as well. Although the menu had us pulled in many directions, it was the traditional breakfast section that claimed both our palates. My choice was the Denver Omelette – with cheese, ham, green pepper, onion and added mushroom – while my companion went with the Omega Skillet – a pan stacked with hashbrowns, onions, choice of sausage or bacon, melted cheese and two eggs any style. While I was completely satisfied with my football-sized omelette – to the point where some leftovers found a place in my fridge – there are a couple items on the menu I’m already planning on tasting next time. Omega’s Saganaki Omelette sounds like a cheesy and deliciously appealing way to combine our previous appetizer and meals. But my biggest goal for the next visit is to save room for dessert so I (and a few friends) can tackle Omega’s Famous Tummy Buster Ice Cream Sundae – a

Even though the food alone was enough to convince me, what really made a trip to Omega worth it, was its outstanding service and homey atmosphere.

West Chicago advanced to Tuesday’s semifinal after a 64-56 win against Prosser on Monday. Konchar produced 38 points to lead all scorers. Alex Mitchell added seven points, and Ryan Orr finished six points. In the regular season finale on Feb. 27, Konchar broke the all-time scoring mark at West Chicago that was previously held by his coach. Needing 16 points to establish a new record, the senior put an exclamation point on his outstanding 2013-14 campaign and high school career by totaling 45 points in leading the Wildcats to an 89-82 victory over St. Charles North. Konchar finishes his West Chicago career with 1,551 points. Recchia held the previous mark of 1,461.

WCP

FRANKLIN PARK – The progression of West Chicago’s boys basketball team over the last 12 months can be quickly summed up. The Wildcats weren’t just happy to compete with and push higher seed, 20-win Glenbard North to the brink of elimination in a playoff game Tuesday. Instead, the squad walked out of the gym truly disappointed not to be the team moving on after falling 51-48 in a Class 4A Leyden regional semifinal game. “I had a blast with these guys,” senior standout John Konchar said. “It’s devastating that we lost. I wish I had another game with them.” For a while, it looked like West Chicago would be the one advancing to Friday’s regional final against Lake Park. The Wildcats jumped out to an early 11-0 advantage and led 27-19 at halftime. But the shots stopped falling for the Wildcats in the second half, and the Panthers got hot from the perimeter, knocking down six 3-pointers over the final two quarters. The last trifecta from Jeremiah Fleming broke a 44-44 tie and gave Glenbard North the lead for good with 1:25 left in the contest. “They made their shots, and we didn’t make our shots,” said West Chicago coach Bill Recchia, whose team more than tripled its win total from a year ago with its 17-11 record. “That was the turning point of the game. They hit shots at the key parts of the game. “It’s frustrating, but that was a well-fought basketball game between two good basketball teams. They just put a couple more in the hole than

Suburban Life ATHLETE OF THE WEEK JOSH RUGGLES Wheaton Academy Junior | Basketball Why Ruggles was selected: Ruggles scored 16 points on Friday in a 59-49 win against Marmion, which gave the Warriors a 10-0 league mark. Josh Ruggles is the leading scorer for a Wheaton Academy team that recently captured its fifth conference championship in a row. On Friday, the Wheaton resident knocked down a pair of 3-pointers on his way to a game-high 16 points in a win against Marmion that completed a perfect run through the Suburban Christian Conference for the Warriors. Ruggles, the Wheaton Bank & Trust Athlete of the Week spoke with Suburban Life sports reporter Scott Schmid about those teams accomplishments and the program’s continued success under firstyear coach Peter Froedden.

A new coach and a new system but the same results. What has been the key? Everybody bought in. And we have two seniors this year who are two extremely great

leaders and great team players. They’ve really led our team.

What can you say about your two seniors, Gordon Behr and William Burdett? Gordon brings everything. He can bring scoring, rebounding and great team energy. He’s a straight-up stud. And Burdett, he’s just fun to play with. Whenever our season is over with, he will say that he has no regrets, that he gave 100 percent. He’s the guy who is diving for every loose ball. He just loves to play.

How special is it to win conference for a fifth straight year and to go undefeated in the league? It’s good, especially with it being our last year in the conference. And going undefeated in conference is special. The last couple of seasons, we’ve lost games in conference.

Warriors on top again Wheaton Academy boys lock up fifth straight conference title By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com WEST CHICAGO – Gordon Behr and his Wheaton Academy boys basketball teams can strike one goal off the list. Playing in their final Suburban Christian Conference game Friday, the Warriors went out in style. Receiving contributions up and down their roster, the Warriors knocked off Marmion 59-49 to cap off the program’s fifth consecutive conference title. Next year, the school heads to the Metro Suburban Conference. “That was one of our goals this year,” said Gordon Behr, who was one of two seniors, along with William Burdett, to be honored on senior night. “It’s our last year in the conference and we wanted to go out winning it.” Behr finished with eight points and five rebounds in his final home game. Josh Ruggles led all scorers with 16 points, Burdett also totaled eight points, and Jacob Lindstedt finished with seven. “It’s kind of bittersweet,” Behr said. “I really love this court and love this school. Senior night was a lot of fun.” The victory put the finishing touches on a perfect 10-0 run through the Blue division of the SCC.. “The focus this year has been on mental toughness,” Behr said. “Some of the harder games, like at St. Francis and at Marmion, those games we’ve really gotten a lot better at this year.” Wheaton Academy wrapped up the regular sea-

The Warriors were set to open up the postseason on Wednesday at the Class 3A Genoa-Kingston regional against Burlington Central with the winner advancing to Friday’s regional championship game. “Coach [Paul] Ferguson was a great coach and Coach Froedden is a great coach, so a lot of it has to do with that,” Behr said. “And we really bought into the new system as a team. We struggled early in the season but we are peaking at a good time.” The Warriors had knocked off St. Francis 46-44 in SCC action on Feb. 26. Behr scored 15 points and Ruggles added 14.

Chrissy Baird

Tomei Ball

Steffy Bazigos

Maggie Dansdill

Melinda Franke

Emari Jones

School: Wheaton North Year: Senior Impact: This three-plus year varsity player leaves quite the legacy as the program’s all-time leading scorer and rebounder. This winter, Baird led the Falcons averaging 15.1 points and 9.7 rebounds per game while also adding 47 steals and 48 blocked shots.

School: Glenbard South Year: Senior Impact: A consistent force for the Raiders throughout her high school career, Ball’s senior campaign was no different. The senior forward topped Glenbard South with a 13.7 points per game average while adding 6.1 rebounds per outing. She also totaled 48 steals.

School: Glenbard South Year: Senior Impact: This senior’s intensity and competitiveness were just as vital as her scoring ability. The guard led the Raiders in 3-pointers and was second on the team with a 10.3 points per game average. She also tallied 3.0 rebounds and 2.4 assists and over two steals per contest.

School: Wheaton Warrenville South Year: Senior Impact: This senior made a glorious return to the court after tearing her ACL last season. A steady presence on the floor for the Tigers, Dansdill was second on the team in scoring with 10.2 points per game. The guard also flashed an all-around game with 5.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists and two steals per outing.

School: Wheaton Warrenville South Year: Senior Impact: Few players work as hard in the paint as this senior, who set a program record for most rebounds in a season this winter. Franke averaged 10.8 boards per contest and notched 197 offensive rebounds in 32 games. The forward also added 7.4 points on 52 percent shooting.

School: Wheaton North Year: Junior Impact: Having not played point guard since junior high, Jones moved to that position this winter and excelled. Rarely coming off the floor, Jones averaged 11.3 points per game and topped the squad in assists (98) and steals (56) while shooting 77 percent from the free throw line.

Honorable mention

Jamie Netzley

Laila Pickens

Reagan Sproat

Kelly Thornton

School: Wheaton Academy Year: Sophomore Impact: This sophomore continues to grow her game on the court. In her second varsity season, Netzley topped the Warriors averaging 10.8 points per game. The guard also led Wheaton Academy in 3-pointers (19), assists (2.7 per game) and steals (3.2 per game).

School: Glenbard North Year: Senior Impact: Despite missing 11 games after breaking her leg during practice late in the season, Pickens was still selected as the Panthers’ MVP. The athletic player and team leader shot 47 percent from the floor and averaged 10.4 points, 5.4 rebounds and 2.4 steals per game.

School: St. Francis Year: Sophomore Impact: This sophomore had a breakout campaign for the Spartans, averaging a team-high 12.9 points and 6.8 rebounds per game. Sproat knocked down 30 3-pointers and shot 46 percent from two-point territory. She also totaled 32 steals and 15 blocks.

School: Wheaton North Year: Junior Impact: This junior guard is a talented scorer who can shoot it from the perimeter and also take the ball to the basket. Thornton was second on the Falcons with her 13.2 points per game average and she led Wheaton North with 60 3-pointers. She also totaled 38 steals.

Meghan Waldron School: Wheaton Warrenville South Year: Senior Impact: What more can be said about a player whom has the ability to do it all on court? Leaving South as the all-time leading scorer and rebounder, Waldron saved her best season for last. This winter, the point guard averaged 21.4 points, 8.8 rebounds, 4.1 assists and 2.9 steals per game.

Hard work helps Waldron leave mark as all-time best By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com WHEATON – The ideal scenario for any coach is to have their best player also be a hard worker and great teammate. And for the past four years, Wheaton Warrenville South coach Rob Kroehnke has lived that dream with Meghan Waldron on the court. “She is the best player who works extremely hard on her game and pretty much gets joy from having her teammates be successful,” Kroehnke said. “That’s the bottom line with her.” Waldron leaves the Tigers’ program as their most decorated player, having become both the all-time leading scorer and rebounder this winter. “It’s probably been one of the most enjoyable things I have ever been a part of,” Waldron said of her high school career. “I grew up with a lot of the girls I played with at South and it was an incredible journey with them. “It’s been a dream of mine since I was a little girl to play at Wheaton Warrenville South and it’s been a blessing to get that opportunity.” More than her individual numbers, and those again were gaudy this winter with her pergame averages of 21.4 points and 8.8 rebounds, winning was the ultimate benchmark for the senior guard. In her four years on the court, the Tigers went 102-19 while capturing a quartet of DuPage Valley Conference championships. “We didn’t like to lose,” Waldron said. “We like to win and we worked hard for it. It’s not like success is an accident, we worked hard all summer and we wanted the best for each other. It didn’t matter to us who got the most points or the most rebounds.” That thirst for team success is what drove Waldron in the offseason. “Over the summer, I always wanted to improve my game,”

so important for me,” the senior said. “I’ve known him for a while, I went to their camps when I was really little. For him to give me an opportunity to play, that is the best thing. And my teammates are my best friends, it was an honor to play with them. We never ever had a bad day, we never had drama. It was a great thing to be a part of, where everybody cared for each other.” Soon the guard will have to introduce herself to a new set of teammates. Waldron will play at DePaul next season.

“I’m excited,” Waldron said. “It will be a lot different than high school, every girl is going to be very good and it’s a more physical game. I will have to prepare for that, but I’m excited for the next chapter, too.” As for the program she leaves behind, Kroehnke will begin the impossible task of trying to fill the void left by Waldron. “What she has done for this program overall,” Kroehnke said, “she left her mark and it will be around for a while.”

New IHSA rule will affect several area schools By DAN SANTAROMITA dsantaromita@shawmedia.com The Illinois High School Association recently announced adjustments to its multiplier rule for private schools that should impact the class that some area programs compete in for the state playoffs. The new rule, called the Success Advancement Component by the IHSA, will move teams up a class if they win at least two state trophies during a four-year period. The new rule will take effect starting with the 2014-15 school year. This won’t have any impact on teams that are already competing in the highest class or sports that have just one class such as tennis, water polo, swimming and boys volleyball. Football, which has the most classes of any IHSA sport with eight, will have a slightly different take on the rule: • Starting with the 2015 season, schools would be moved up two classes if they made three state finals during a four-year period. • Starting in 2016, schools would be moved up three classes if they make four state Erica Benson file photo - ebenson@shawmedia.com finals in a row.

not make a title game in 2014, they will be Class 7A in 2015. If they make a state title game in 2014, they would go all the way up to 8A the next season. Schools that move up more than one class will move down one class per year until they reach their appropriate classification for their enrollment should they stop meeting the advancement criteria listed above. Here is a list of teams in the Suburban Life coverage area that would be affected based on the past four years, including fall 2013, but not winter or spring 2014. • Montini football (5A champs 2010-12; second in 2013) • Montini girls basketball (3A champs 2010-12; third in 2013) • Montini girls cross country (2A third place in 2011 and 2012) • Montini wrestling (2A champs 2010-13) • Nazareth baseball (3A fourth place in 2011; third in 2012) • St. Francis girls volleyball (3A champs in 2012 and 2013; third in 2011) • Wheaton Academy boys soccer (2A fourth place in 2012, 2013) • Wheaton Academy girls soccer (2A third place in 2010; fourth in 2011)

ruits and vegetables are a good source of vitamins, minerals and iber that will keep you healthy and help you grow to be tall and strong. Vegetables come from the earth, grown on farms across this country and beyond. But don’t leave it to the farming professionals — this spring, start planting your own garden. Location: Find a place with plenty of sun. Look for good soil that is away from trees and bushes that have big roots or branches that might interfere with your growing plants. You also will need to think about water — is your garden near a hose, or do you have another way to water your plants? If you don’t have access to land, plant your seeds in pots on a sunny porch or balcony. plan: Plants need space, so make sure not to overcrowd. Keep-

ing your seeds in rows helps you stay organized and can give your plants room to grow. Draw out a plan to maximize space.

WORD FIND Find these veggie words: Beans Broccoli Carrots Corn Lettuce

Peas Peppers Spinach Squash Zucchini

follow instructions: Read the directions on each pack of seeds, and follow them closely. If the directions say to plant each seed 2 feet apart, make sure to do that. Even though they might start out as little seeds, some plants can grow quite large, especially if you are doing a good job with them. maintain: Common gardening tools include a hose, watering

can, spade, rake and hoe. You will need a way to dig into the earth to plant your seeds, and also need tools to maintain your garden. Some of these can be helpful in removing weeds that will sprout up and crowd your plants. And don’t forget to water! If your plants are looking and feeling dry, make sure to give them a healthy shower.

Notice of Petition by Kramer Tree Specialists, Inc. for an Adjusted Standard before the Illinois Pollution Control Board Petitioner: Kramer Tree Specialists, Inc. 300 Charles Court West Chicago, IL 60185 On February 26, 2014, Kramer Tree Specialists, Inc. (“Kramer”) iled a petition for an adjusted standard with the Illinois Pollution Control Board (the “IPCB”). he IPCB docket number assigned to Kramer’s petition is AS 2014-002. Regulatory Standards from which an Adjusted Standard is Sought Kramer seeks an adjusted standard from certain of the requirements of 35 Illinois Administrative Code Sections 830.202(d), (e)(3), (f), (g), (l)(1), 830.205(a)(1) (A), 830.206(f), (j), (k), (l) and (n). 830.503, 830.504 and 830.507. As a general matter, 35 Illinois Administrative Code Part 830 sets forth composting regulations that are designed to promote the creation of compost from landscape wastes in an environmentally protective manner. he regulations set forth in Illinois Administrative Code 830 require the environmentally responsible composting of grass, shrubbery, cuttings, leaves, tree limbs and other materials accumulated as the result of the care of lawns, shrubbery, vines and trees. However, Kramer’s operations, as described below, use such materials for a productive purpose – to create mulch for residential and commercial use – and the regulations in Illinois Administrative Code 830 simply do not account for productive and environmentally responsible operations like Kramer’s. Proposed Adjusted Standards Kramer’s proposed adjusted standards recognize that Illinois Administrative Code 830 was not drated to cover operations like Kramer’s; however, the proposed adjusted standards will maintain the environmentally protective features of those regulations. Kramer’s proposed adjusted standards will require it to manage all leaves in such a way as to minimize decomposition and to capture or prevent any deleterious air or water emissions. Speciically, Kramer’s facility is designed to collect all water runof from stored leaves and will employ a ine spray over the production area to minimize the potential for any dust emissions. In short, Kramer’s proposed adjusted standards will preserve the environmentally protective aspects of Illinois Administrative Code Part 830, while accommodating Kramer’s operations. Description of Kramer’s Activity that is the Subject of the Adjusted Standard Proceedings Kramer owns and operates a ten acre tree care facility. As part of that operation, Kramer produces and sells leaf mulch, which is a blend of leaves and sized woody material. Kramer’s leaf mulch production process takes place on an annual cycle. Each autumn, Kramer collects leaves from several local municipalities. he collected leaves are then stacked on a concrete pad and any water contained within the leaves is drained of and collected. As customer mulch orders are received, stacked leaves are processed through grinding, and for certain products, then mixed with other wood waste prior to sale. During this process, the leaves are managed to minimize decomposition in order to preserve the leaves for use in mulch, and preventative measures are taken to ensure that no dust or particulate matter is emitted from the stacks of leaves. Opportunity to Request a Public Hearing Any person may cause a public hearing to be held in the above-described adjusted standard proceeding by iling a hearing request with the Illinois Pollution Control Board within 21 days ater the date of the publication of this notice. he hearing request should clearly indicate the docket number for the adjusted standard proceeding, as found in this notice, and must be mailed to the Clerk of the Board, Illinois Pollution Control Board, 100 W. Randolph Street, Suite 11-500, Chicago, Illinois 60601.
