Casting call for adult wizards, witches and other magical beings

By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT

Come one, come all, come to the casting call. Here is your chance to be an important part of this year’s Wizards Weekend Day. No reason to stand by and watch your children enjoy being a part of this magical event when you can be part of the cast that helps to turn the area into the magical world of wizards and witches.

Last summer, when historic downtown Antioch was transformed into this magical land known as Hogsmeade, home to wizards, witches and Muggles, the area became a mystical place. It was a time of excitement and happiness for the children attending this first Wizards Weekend.

It was a time of fun and excitement as young wizards and witches attended the Hogwart’s School of Magic, opened to those from 7 to 12 years of age. They enjoyed a variety of magical activities and learned magical skills.

While children were busy indulging, did adults wish they were attending Hogwarts School or teaching in that School of Magic?

So, if you were one of many who wished they were of the right age group throughout downtown Antioch that day, this is the year to come to the casting call and perhaps become a teacher.

At 10 a.m. on Saturday, April 14, there will be a casting call for adult characters to participate in the Wizards

The HP characters are needed to participate primarily in the Hogwarts School of Magic and at the Wizards grand banquet. They also will be needed at other magical activities.

To participate in the casting call, arrive dressed in character as your favorite adult wizard or witch character from the land of Harry Potter. Bring your magic or smart wand. They will be looking for adults to portray a variety of characters, including professors, death eaters, dementors and any other characters of your choice.

The casting call will be held in the Antioch Community Building, 844 Main St.

Offenders are responsible for the costs of their monitoring, which allows them to maintain their employment and family commitments while ensuring they aren’t drinking and endangering the public.

Ringwood teacher earns prestigious award Jeri Faber, a Ringwood School Primary Center teacher, received a prestigious surprise from a state nonprofit organization committed to developing great teachers.

Faber, who teaches second grade, was one of 10 instructors in the Chicagoland area to earn the annual Golden Apple Award for Excellence in Teaching.

The annual award, which recognizes and honors outstanding teachers for their role in building a stronger, better-educated society, was presented to Faber in front of students, family and school leadership in late March.

“Golden Apple is proud to recognize this year’s award recipients for their exceptional accomplishments in the Jeri Faber classroom,” said Alicia Winckler, Golden Apple president and CEO. “Each of the recipients is uniquely talented and epitomizes the dedication, skill and drive in the teaching profession that facilitates better futures for scores of young people.”

This group of four pelicans, swimming in the open water, may be searching for a school of fish. Pelicans in groups of four to six will form a circle around the fish and then capture them in the large throat sac that holds the fish and a large amount of water.

Pelicans seen nesting along a berm adjacent to Half Moon Island in Pistakee Lake.

One-hundred twenty birds were counted on the berm and island.

Pelicans are a sign of spring to come

By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT

Living along the Chain O Lakes and Fox River areas, some of the early signs winter has come and gone, and spring has arrived is when the area waterways thaw For some residents who live along the shore of Fox Lake, Nippersink Lake, and Pistakee Lake, it when pelicans arrive as they make their way north for the winter.

“This year, the pelicans arrived on Pistakee Lake on March 8th about the same time as last year,” said Pat Schafer who enjoys watching, photographing and paint-

ing the pelicans. “They usually stay in the area for about three weeks and make their nests on Half Moon Island.”

Half Moon Island, which has also been called Duck Island, is located near the junction of Pistakee Lake and the Fox River.

The American White Pelicans have been a common sight in the Chain of Lakes area the past few years. For many years, the birds would migrate north along the Mississippi River, but today they have moved toward larger bodies of water to the east of the River. The birds follow the large bodies of open water

where they can fish and nest.

The pelicans, when resting, appear to be a big fluff of white feathers. When they fly and open their wings, they are not just white but have black tipped wings. The birds are large with an average length of 50 to 70 inches and can weigh between 9 and 30 pounds, with the average pelican weighing in between 11 and 20 pounds.

The birds have a long neck, a small head and an elongated beak. The beak is flat on top with a large throat sac that expands to hold fish and water when fishing for food. During breeding season, the pelicans

present a hard horn on the upper bill which disappears once breeding is completed. The bill, the skin around the eyes and the web feet turn orange during the breeding season.

Males are larger than the females but otherwise appear identical.

The birds have one of the largest wing spans of any of the North American birds and they tend to hold the wings open and flat when flying.

Unlike the Canadian Geese who fly in a v formation, the pelicans fly in a straight line, one behind the other.

The pelicans also have a unique way of fishing.

While many large birds circle around until they see a fish in the water that they want, then dive down and attack, the pelicans do not dive for food. They fish in groups.

They prefer the shallow water where they can see their prey easily. They form a circle, herding the fish inside the circle. They will then open their bills and take in large amounts of water and fish. They are also known to steal fish from other birds if they can’t find suitable fishing spots of their own. The average pelican consumes about four pounds of fish daily.

When looking for a spot to

nest or just sleep for the night, they tend to prefer isolated islands to protect them from being attacked by fox, coyotes, or humans.

The population of pelicans fell dramatically in the mid 1900s due to excessive use of pesticides in agriculture resulting in pollution of wetlands. With the implementation of stricter environmental protection laws, the populations again began to grow.

Along the chain of lakes, the beauty of the pelicans is enjoyed during the short time they spend in the area before moving north.

Area man charged with drug-induced homicide Four months after the overdose death of a Kenosha County woman in Illinois, authorities arrested and charged a 40-year-old Antioch man with drug induced homicide this week, village police said on Monday.

Timothy T. Irving, accused of supplying the lethal drug combination, could face up to 30 years in prison and a $25,000 fine if convicted.

Timothy T. According to Antioch police, last Irving November, officers were called to a home in the 400 block of Joren Trail, where they found an unresponsive woman in the basement.

The woman, identified as Tehya E. Lundstrum, of the Village of Pleasant Prairie, was transported to Condell Medical Center where she was pronounced dead.

“Subsequent toxicology tests later determined the cause of death to be combined drug toxicity resulting from a combination of fentanyl, heroin and cocaine,” an Antioch Police Department news release states.

An investigation revealed Irving supplied the drugs, and on March 19, authorities secured an arrest warrant.

Irving, according to Antioch police, was found at Gurnee Mills Mall on March 31.

“Irving was arrested at Gurnee Mills Mall with the assistance of officers from the Gurnee Police Department,” the release states. “Irving was later transported to the Lake County Jail where he is being held on a $500,000 bond.”

“Alcohol monitoring, especially when it’s part of a larger program of supervision and treatment, can support long-term behavior change, making it less likely these individuals will be back here for another offense in the future,” said Nerheim.

The unpredictable world of dating and relationships is captured in a trio of comedic one-act plays being presented by College of Lake County theatre students April 13-15 and 2021.

The plays are “A RelationshipAbridged” by Seth Kramer, “Self Torture and Strenuous Exercise” by Harry Kondoleon and “Post-its® (Notes on a Marriage)” by Paul Dooley and Winnie Holzman.

They make up the eighth annual production of “Play On! A CLC Theatre Student Showcase,” where students showcase their abilities as actors, directors, stage managers, designers and technicians. The student directors are Alexander Gray, Jeff Brain and Oguzhan Ucak. “‘Play On’ gives our students the opportunity to develop the skills they are learning in their classes, collaborate within a production team and realize their overall artistic vision,” said Craig Rich, theatre department chair.

“A Relationship-Abridged” puts a humorous spin on a familiar story: Edward meets Abby at a bar. At a rapid-fire and revealing pace, the audience sees every phase of their relationship: the pickup, first date, morning after, all leading up to the final analysis.

“Most people have experienced a relationship in one way or another, and the play capitalizes on how relatable each step of the relationship is,” said

Director Alexander Gray of Zion. “We students are very fortunate to have a production like ‘Play On!’ available to us.”

Gray received two Kennedy Center American College Theatre Irene Ryan Scholarship nominations for his roles in “Street Scene” and “The Diviners.”

He plans to continue his theatre education at University of WisconsinParkside.

In “Self Torture and Strenuous Exercise,” a dinner party encounters turmoil when Carl tells Alvin that he’s in love with Alvin’s wife, Beth.

Feeling dizzy, Beth won’t get off the floor. Then, Adel, Carl’s wife, bursts in and announces that Carl is trying to kill her.

“I found the writing of the play to be extremely stylish and compelling,” said Director Oguzhan Ucak. “For me, I found a genuine feeling of entertainment from seeing these characters express their demons while also smashing a lovely dessert treat. This story is full of people who desperately desire to not be lonely but who also want to feel safe from the cruelty that others are capable of.”

An Antioch resident, Ucak is a licensed massage therapist who earned a CLC certificate in massage therapy.

He developed a love for theatre after taking several CLC theatre classes.

In “Post-its® (Notes on a Marriage),” Director Jeff Brain of Antioch said the story touches on the many stages of a relationship.

“The audience will see some of their own experiences reflected onstage,” said Brain.

Directing has helped Brain develop a more well-rounded theater education as well as respect the stages of the production process that he never saw as an actor, he said.

Brain plans to earn an associate degree from CLC in May. This fall, he will transfer to University of Wisconsin-Parkside to major in theatre with a focus on theatre performance.

Officials encourage radon testing In observance of National Public Health Month, McHenry County Department of Health is offering shortterm radon test kits for the reduced price of $5.

Radon is a naturally occurring, invisible and odorless gas. It is harmless when dispersed in outdoor air, but in buildings it can be harmful if it reaches elevated levels. It is the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking.

McHenry County has been classified as a Zone 2 or medium risk for radon.

Homes with elevated levels of radon have been found throughout the state of Illinois. All homes should be tested regardless of geo-

graphic location. Homes with elevated levels of radon can often be fixed fairly inexpensively, but cost may depend on the type of home construction.

“The likelihood of developing cancer depends on many different factors including amount of exposure, length of exposure, and if a person is a smoker or non-smoker,” the health department states.

For more information about radon, including interpretation of test results, call the Health Department’s Division of Environmental Health at 815-334-4585 or visit www.mcdh.info, www. illinois.gov/iema and www. epa.gov.

Lake County has 32 prescription drug disposal boxes located at police departments and Walgreens throughout Lake County.

In Illinois, prescription pain medication overdose deaths doubled between 2013 and 2016. Prescription medications can be safe and effective if used as directed, but can be dangerous when used incorrectly.

Proper disposal of prescription drugs can prevent misuse and accidental poisonings.

The drug take back program in Lake County was initiated by the Save-A-Star Drug Awareness Foundation Save A Star.

They provided free disposal boxes to police departments around the county. Walgreens Corporation and CVS Pharmacy have also begun to place drug collection boxes in some stores.

The following is a list of prescription drug disposal boxes:

281236

• Grayslake Police Department, 10 S. Seymour Ave., Grayslake.

• Lindenhurst Police Department, 2300 E. Grand Ave., Lindenhurst.

• Round Lake Beach Police Department, 1947 N. Municipal Way, Round Lake.

• Lake Villa Police Department, 65 Cedar Ave., Lake Villa.

• Fox Lake Police Department, 301 S. IL Route 59, Fox Lake.

• Antioch Police Department, 433 Orchard St., Antioch.

Unused prescriptions or over-the-counter medications, including controlled substances are accepted at all drug disposal boxes. For more information and a complete list of disposal boxes, visit www.drugfreelakecounty.org.

ENCOURAGING Monetary gifts help clients pay it forward

By Heather Ruenz STAFF WRITER

conjunction with Random Acts of Kindness Week, Exemplar Financial in Walworth sent $50 to 50 of its clients.

“We send a letter with the money and simply ask them to pay it forward. We also ask them to send us a note, telling us what they decided to do with the money,” said Heidi Alten, a financial adviser for Exemplar.

This was the fifth year the local branch has done so – it’s specific to the office in Walworth – and Alten said the outcome all five years has been more inspiring than they ever predicted.

“A lot of the people add their own money; some double the $50 or give even more, so it goes even farther,” Alten said.

The money is sent out the week prior to Random Acts of Kindness Week, which was Feb. 11 through 17 this year. To keep it in this area, clients they choose generally live in southern Wisconsin or northern Illinois.

“About 75 percent of them send us letters or notes while others call to tell us what they did with the money. We’ve even had some clients months later tell us they finally figured out who to donate it to,” said Alyssa Erickson, the client services director.

The hope behind the annual giving, Alten said, is to inspire people to help others. The creative ideas people have come up with never gets old, she said, and has led to a bigger network of pay-it-forwarders.

“One client who has a business was inspired to start something similar with her staff and clients, so it’s gone beyond what we started,” Alten said.

“She asked five co-workers to pitch in, in addition to adding her own money, so it turned into a much bigger amount,” Erickson added.

The notes and letters from clients sharing the inspiring ways they used the money are posted on a Random Acts of Kindness bulletin board in the office.

“One couple bought pizza and soda for the Woodstock Police Department after a Chicago police officer died. But they also gave another $50 of their own to a family in their neighborhood that had lost someone,” Alten said.

Erickson said the office also regularly receives thank you notes and letters from the recipients.

“It’s not expected at all but is nice that as people donate they mention it’s on behalf of our office,” Erickson said.

Helping others The Random Acts of Kindness bulletin board at the local Exemplar office features a variety of notes about how the money was used. Below are a few excerpts: • “We have decided to use your gift to help the families of the Association for the

Prevention of Family Violence. Our church provides Easter baskets for the children, and sadly these past few years have seen an increase in the number of families needing shelter.”

• “No matter what the circumstances, everyone can use a little help when they are down. The Walworth County Men’s Homeless Shelter is there for those who need a little extra support now and then. Hopefully this gift will help someone get back on their feet.”

• “We use the donation to pay for our next-door neighbor’s snowplowing this past week. She is a 33-year-old young woman with two little girls who is now widowed. We feel so badly for her and do all we can to help her out. The money helped get her plowed out last week two times due to the amazing amount of snow that we received. She was so grateful and appreciative.”

• “We are proud to be able to support a variety of charities, and your kind offer helps us continue to see the good that humanity is capable of in such a troubled world. We are going to match your donation and pass both on to the Central Illinois Food Bank. Thank you again, not only for your donation, but the meaning and goodwill that it contains.”

• “We matched your donation and gave the $100 to the Elkhorn Food Pantry. We felt that this money could help a lot of people that are less fortunate than us.”

• “Thanks to your generosity, we passed the donation on to the school library during its book sale. The librarians wish they could convey the looks of surprise and gratification on the students’ faces when they received the books. A big thank you.”

• “I anonymously gave the donation to someone about to be evicted and unable to come up with enough money to cover the cost of a deposit in order to allow her cats to move in with her. She was thrilled. Thank you.”

Heidi Alten (on the left, holding her dog, Nugget), a financial adviser with Exemplar Financial Network in Walworth, and Alyssa Erickson, client services director, and their co-workers send $50 to 50 random clients each year prior to Random Acts of Kindness Week in February, encouraging them to pay it forward. Many of the clients contribute their own money before donating it.

Being inspired Alten and Erickson said the list of stories most inspiring about how the money has helped people over the years is more than they can count.

“It’s not always the common places people donate to, and that inspires me. Quite a few of our clients have chosen elementary schools to donate to or purchased books for kids, for example,” Erickson said.

Speaking of kids, Alten said while it wasn’t something they expected to happen, knowing younger people are sometimes included in the giving process is inspiring.

“Honestly, hearing that a lot of them get the younger generation involved and it in turn inspires the kids means the most to me. It’s such an important life lesson,” Alten said.

Exemplar Financial Network is at 630 Kenosha St., Walworth. To learn more about the local Random Acts of Kindness program, visit exemplarfn.com/Walworth or call financial advisers Stephen Werner, Jacob Ries or Heidi Alten, or client services director Alyssa Erickson at 800-822-3642, ext. 146.

The Random Acts of Kindness Foundation offers a variety of tools for those wanting to get involved, including hundreds of ideas, such as these: – Send a postcard: If you’re on a trip or just living life at home, it’s always a good time to send a postcard. It only takes a few minutes and a stamp, and it’s such an easy way to make a person happy.

It may even start a ripple effect – because if you didn’t already know, kindness is contagious.

– Compliment a parent on how wellbehaved their child is: Parenthood can be overwhelming, and sometimes the kind words of a stranger is all it takes to turn a mother or father’s day around… Whether you’re at a restaurant or the grocery store, make a parent proud with a simple compliment.

– Leave a generous tip: If you had

service that went above and beyond (or you’re just having a good day), you owe it to your server to tip well. Many people in the service industry rely on tips to earn a livable wage. We all have bad days; even if your service was less than the best, spread your kindness through generosity.

– Wheel out your neighbor’s trash bin: We all get caught up in the busyness of our everyday lives, but it’s always nice to know your neighbors are willing to offer a helping hand.

– Ask a senior about their past: With years comes wisdom. Elderly people have some of the best stories and give great advice – ask someone to share their story.

Whether it’s a grandparent or someone you just met, there is a lot we can learn from those that are older than us.
