Police were called to Centegra HospitalWoodstock early that morning after the victim,

Four Woodstock High School students were charged April 8 in connection with an alleged sexual assault that police said was recorded and posted online.

James Cornelius and Corion V. Simpson, both 18, were charged with felony criminal sexual assault following an alleged attack on a 15-year-old girl during a party in December. Two unnamed juveniles also were charged with felonies — one with criminal sexual assault and one with possession of child pornography.

Woodstock police said the alleged sexual assault happened at a house party in Woodstock where underage drinking occurred. One of the suspects digitally recorded the alleged incident and posted it on Facebook, where it was purportedly used by Simpson to intimidate the girl.

“One of the individuals intimidated the victim in that he tried to get her to come back to Woodstock or he would repost it in on social media,” said Police Chief Robert Lowen. e girl is not a resident of Woodstock, nor does she attend school in the city. Lowen said she lives in McHenry County. e girl’s father reported the incident to authorities in February after discovering it had been posted online, at which point police launched an investigation, according to Lowen. “ e victim’s father somehow became aware of the incident with his daughter through social media,” Lowen said. e four suspects were taken into custody by Woodstock police while on campus at WHS. A district official confirmed the suspects are students there.

By LISA KUCHARSKI The Independent ough jump roping may seem like a fad of the ’40s, e Jump Rope Girls have been bringing back the old toy for fitness, fun and fundraising since 2010.

Started by close friends and neighbors, Cheryl Cox and Emilee Bozic, e Jump Rope Girls Inc. is a Woodstock-based

business that creates handcrafted, acrylic-yarn jump ropes.

When Cox had trained for a triathlon a few years ago, she picked up jump roping as part of her cross-training. e day after her jump-rope workout, she said she felt the significant impact the low-tech training tool had on her muscles. Cox was motivated to keep jumping, and the simple activity gave her the idea to start a part-time business centered around jump ropes.

“As moms, looking for alternatives for our kids besides technology and TV, jump ropes just seemed like a good idea,” Cox said. “ ey were in the toy hall of fame, they’re good old-fashioned fun and they’ve been around forever.”

DOES YOUR CHILD SEEM LIKE A ZOMBIE?

Local mom promotes sleep awareness

By LISA KUCHARSKI The Independent

SLEEP DISORDER SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS

A Woodstock mom is on a mission to bring awareness of pediatric sleep disorders to area parents by starting a non-profit foundation, hosting a fundraiser bike ride in September and sharing her son’s story.

Valerie Deegan’s son, Connor, was an “angry child.” From the time he was little until he was in fourth grade, Connor would throw tantrums, disrupt his classes and tear up his homework. He was irritable, hyperactive, demanding and had a hard time making friends.

“Vacations were horrible,” Deegan said. “ ey were really stressful. It was never easy, because he ruled it. Everything went around his behavior.”

“He was always taking the fun out of everything,” said Connor’s sister, Kayla, an eighth-grader at Creekside Middle School. “He was the stick in the mud.”

Connor was placed on an Individualized Education Program for school, and Deegan tried her best to find a solution. She enrolled in parent-child interaction therapy, desperately requested blood and allergy tests from her pediatrician and finally asked for a sleep study for her son.

“When the pediatrician asked, ‘How’s your child sleeping?’ I would say, ‘He’s sleeping great! I can’t get him up in the

Garden shop asks growers to ‘Plant a Row’ to fight hunger

By KATELYN STANEK The Independent A local garden center is asking area growers to put their green thumbs to good use by participating in a program to feed the poor.

Deegan took Connor to Lurie Children’s Hospital, Chicago, for a sleep study. Sleep study pulmonologist Dr. Darius Loghmanee determined Connor was waking about 90 times a night, partially due to the noise from his own snoring that would interrupt his sleep.

He also had bruxism and obstructive sleep disordered breathing.

“He had snored since he was a baby,” she said. “It was adorable. We never thought anything of it.” e family learned Connor had quite a few allergies, which had caused his nasal passages to swell and develop chronic congestion. Connor was not getting good sleep at night because he

“It’s a good way to give back to the community, where you’re not just asking for money,” Moxley said. “ ey’re doing what they’re already doing.”

Moxley said he was drawn to the program during a gardening conference a few years ago, where he learned of the nationwide effort to donate fresh produce to food pantries — places known more for canned beans than newlyharvested cucumbers and squash.

“It’s all about the people receiving this food,” Moxley said. “ ey’re our neighbors, they’re our friends. It could easily be you or me standing in that line.”

Moxley and his coworkers will collect gardeners’ produce every day at Kolze’s, 12717 Route 176, with the fruits and vegetables being distributed to local food pantries several days a week. In order to encourage donations, the business

“What better thing can a gardener do than feeding people in a food pantry?”

Moxley said. “You can have the family out working in the garden and knowing that the food is going somewhere good.”

could not breathe properly. According to the results, Connor is allergic to dogs, cats and a variety of trees – all of which he had contact with daily.

Deegan said the lack of rest was pushing Connor’s mind into overdrive and causing him to be easily irritated.

“He couldn’t function,” Deegan said.

“When you’ve got so many sensory things going on and you’re tired already, extra stuff stresses you out and you can’t balance it. It would get him in trouble, and the teachers didn’t like it, and the principal was getting frustrated. His brain never had a chance to rest.”

Dr. Loghmanee referred Connor to Dr. Kevin Boyd, D.D.S., at Dentistry for Children and Families in Chicago, for a case study using Biobloc Orthotropics as a treatment for airway restriction – snoring. Biobloc is a retainer-like device that expands in the mouth to lengthen and widen the jaw and palate, creating more space for the tongue and nasal passage and allowing easier breathing through the nose, ending snoring. His treatment began when he was in fourth grade. Now, the Creekside sixth-grader said he is getting much better sleep.

“My alarm clock can actually wake me up now,” Connor said. “Later in the day, I don’t feel tired. I can concentrate

He since has been released from the hospital. Lowen said the victim will not face criminal charges related to the incident.

Hayes was taken into custody April 8 and transported to the McHenry County Jail. He was charged with one count of aggravated battery, a Class 3 felony.

Jump rope Continued from Page 1 Drawing inspiration from contraptions farmers used to wind baling twine, e Jump Rope Girls designed a similar yarn-winding machine. e machine utilizes a weight system, hand-cranked gears and a special bat to separate the strands to be able to twist together several long strands of yarn to form a durable, colorful, handmade jump rope. e average rope is about 7 feet long, weighs about one-quarter pound and takes about five minutes to make. e duo also makes longer ropes for double Dutch and small doll ropes for American Girl-like dolls. Ropes have been sold to people from Marengo to “Take an Massachusetts, idea that and several orders came may already from Canada.

“Even if you chose the same — Cheryl Cox, three colors, The Jump Rope Girls it will turn out differently just because of the way the colors are winding together. For me, my favorite part is just to see their face and the newness of it is fun.”

Bozic and Cox have made thousands of jump ropes since beginning about four years ago. ey are a popular vendor at events like Fair Diddley and the Woodstock Farmers Market, as well as birthday parties and toy-store openings. e Jump Rope Girls also host summer camps and have been part of a workshop for the Chicago Park District. On April 11, the small business was part of the Family Science Night at the Challenger Learning Center for Science & Technology. ey more recently have begun working with fundraisers for schools and other organizations, donating a percentage of the sales to the schools and often spinning hundreds of “school spirit” ropes.

“It’s just nice to give back in fundraising situations,” Bozic said. “It feels really good to create something that people can use, and they can benefit from it in a monetary way.”

Bozic and Cox said many schools have purchased ropes and hosted rope fundraisers to coincide with fitness efforts like Jump Rope for Heart. ey said having the jump ropes as a fundraiser also benefits schools that cannot sell candy or food-related items because of healthy initiatives. ey have even received several calls from parents with autistic children saying the ropes are great for their children because the ropes don’t have any plastic parts and they are soft and safe. ough jump roping seems to be a girl-dominated activity, Cox said there are a fair number of boys that buy ropes at farmers markets and festivals.

“We like to remind them – football players, boxers, wrestlers – boys can jump rope, too,” Cox said. “We can make it in team colors and even camo.”

Trying to be as eco-friendly as possible, the pair said they try their best to utilize every strand and to have zero waste. After cutting off the ends of the rope when the spinning is complete, the women said they keep the scraps to make hair scrunchies or other fun yarn art.

“It truly started out as a labor of love, because it takes a while to get going and learning by doing and making the mistakes,” Cox said. “But we want to encourage our own kids to be entrepreneurs. Take an idea that may already exist and make it better, make it your own.”

Celebrating wholeness In Woodstock School District 200, spring is the season for district-wide concerts, art shows and theater productions that showcase student talents and achievement. e music programs in all six of the district’s elementary schools, two middle schools and two high schools were recently highlighted in the D-200 choral festival. e band festival will begin at 7 p.m. Tuesday, April 28, at Woodstock North High School. e District Art Show, which will include works of art from students in every grade level – kindergarten through 12th grade – will be on display from April 29 to May 9 at Woodstock Public Library.

Even the high school spring musical, “Anything Goes,” currently playing at WNHS, is a joint effort between WNHS and Woodstock High School.

Attending these events provides parents and D-200 residents opportunities to support our children and enjoy the fruits of the excellent fine arts programs our district offers. Even more important, it brings students from across the district together.

After six years, the community is, for the most part, accustomed to having two high schools in the district. ough several of the sports teams are cooperative efforts – drawing athletes from WHS and WNHS – crosstown rivalries have developed.

With Creekside Middle School feeding, for the most part, into WHS and Northwood Middle School graduates attending WNHS, the chances of students from opposite sides of the district crossing paths is limited save for the spring concerts, art shows and theater productions. e concerts and spring play also give the community the opportunity to visit its schools. Students are fortunate to have the opportunity to share premium facilities – such as the beautiful Woodstock Performing Arts Center at WNHS .

District-wide events like these bring us back together and remind us that we are all neighbors. Every student – regardless of whether they attended WHS or WNHS – will be a graduate of District 200. e Woodstock Independent commends the teachers and staff for bringing students together and giving residents of the community an opportunity to celebrate our wholeness.

Don’t be fooled Republican candidate for state representative Steve Reick is off to a really bad start.

In two posts on his website, he claimed that his opponent’s position on changing Illinois’ constitution to allow for the implementation of a progressive income tax is somehow unclear, substantiating this with a link to a primary election candidate survey to which his opponent did not even respond. is kind of spurious claim can only be called one thing, a lie, and the person making the claim is by definition a liar. Reick’s opponent, State Rep. Jack Franks, is not only on record as opposing a graduated income tax, but is the only Democrat in the entire House to have signed on as a co-sponsor of House Resolution 241, legislation which specifically indicates opposition to this type of change to our state’s tax code.

Mr. Reick is already attempting to resort to distortion and trickery — that is a really bad sign and should make us all very skeptical of any claims he makes and his candidacy in general. Rep. Franks has always shown himself to be an honest, diligent public servant. I won’t be fooled by Reick’s lies.

No excuse for voter apathy Two recent columns in the

Chicago Tribune should give anybody that lives in the state of Illinois pause. In almost every financial category that counts, Illinois ranks in the bottom half of the nation and in some dead last.

Taxes, debt and unfunded public unions have made this state a very undesirable place to live. On top of that, Illinois ranks dead last on the issue of “Do you trust your elected officials?” Illinois comes in at 28 percent; Maryland is next at 40 percent.

So my question is: Where were all the voters in the last election? I can only determine that the citizens of McHenry County are satisfied with the way things are. I’m 78 years old and have voted in every election since I was old enough to vote.

Why? I was brought up to believe it was my duty. ere was never any excuse not to vote. For parents, it’s a good “teaching time,” and it sets a good example.

Seventeen percent turnout is shameful! Remember, you could live in Russia, Cuba, North Korea.

If you don’t vote, don’t sit around complaining. In fact, consider moving to one of the countries listed above.

Seventeen percent. Disgusting!

When it comes to preventing bullying, be the change I am a student at Creekside

Middle School. We are now working on the Creekside Project which requires students to conduct research on a topic of relevance. I chose a topic that I knew would be meaningful to many people. My topic is bullying.

Many kids are bullied each and every day, and it is a serious problem.

Since I started this project, many teenagers have told me that they don’t really care about bullying, but others have also thought it was significant. Teenagers are reluctant to tell their parents and loved ones what might be happening at school or online. Would parents care if someone they loved was being bullied? What if their student was being bullied at school or online and no one tried to help them?

Putting yourself in the victim’s shoes for a moment changes the whole outlook. Bullying takes many forms, from physical intimidation to emotional stress. And with social media today, bullying is taken to a whole new level.

No one asks to be bullied.

Everyone deserves a beautiful and happy life. Bullying does hurt, words hurt just as much as physical bullying. Stand up for someone.

Be the reason for someone’s smile.

For my project, I plan on informing the judges, my classmates and the school population about the dangers of bullying and why it must be addressed.

Pull up a chair and let the ideas flow

e kitchen table was the congregating place when I was growing up. Meals, except on special occasions, were served on the light green Formica table in the middle of the kitchen. As important as the food consumed was the information shared. e conversations during the noon meal usually centered on what needed to be accomplished yet that day. e conversations during the evening meal were often about what was or wasn’t happening in the community, state, nation and world.

Just as members of families connect and share ideas around a table, so do major corporations, nonproďŹ t boards and committees, groups of friends and acquaintances and strangers with common interests. e initial meeting which led to the founding of e Woodstock Independent was around a restaurant table in 1986. e McHenry County Community Foundation was envisioned at a restaurant, too. And, nearly 100 years ago, the idea to create the Chicago Community Trust was discussed during a mealtime conversation among people who cared

about the region and were committed to combining their philanthropy for the good of others.

You are probably wondering why I would mention Chicago Community Cheryl Trust. I wish we were sitting around Wormley a table because the explanation probably Declarations would take less time.

CCT is the oldest community foundation in Illinois and one of the oldest in the nation. CCT was founded May 12, 1915, and has a history of partnering with donors to leverage their philanthropy in ways that transform lives and communities.

In February 2013, the McHenry County Community Foundation afďŹ liated with CCT. e MCCF board chose to share administrative functions with CCT in order for the MCCF staff to focus on local needs and local people. at’s the background. Now to the

point: As a CCT afďŹ liate, MCCF, in fact all of McHenry County, has been invited to celebrate CCT’s On the Table — its 99th anniversary celebration — by gathering around tables Monday, May 12, to share a meal and ideas.

CCT’s goal is to bring together at least 10,000 Chicagoland citizens around more than 1,000 tables to generate bold solutions and cultivate collaborations to improve neighborhoods and communities. e University of Illinois at Chicago Institute for Policy and Civic Engagement has been tasked with summarizing what is discussed at all of the On the Table gatherings.

Robin Doeden, MCCF executive director, is spearheading efforts for the On the Table initiative in McHenry County. “Anyone can host an On the Table mealtime conversation at their home, a restaurant, school, ofďŹ ce, place of worship ‌,â€? Robin said. “ is is for everyone.â€?

Robin said a social media component will extend and enhance the conversations and include others who are not at one of the hosted

Another will welcome friends at a restaurant. Still another is hosting a brown-bag lunch at work. “There’s room for more, and we look forward to engaging additional individuals and organizations,� Robin said.

And in a Kane County case, a man was prosecuted for recording a conversation between himself, an attorney and a judge.

What do all of these cases have in common? People in power who don’t want the public to actually hear what they said. e ubiquity of digital recording devices these days should make government more transparent and more accountable. But not everyone sees it that way.

Fortunately, the state Supreme Court does. e high court rightly ruled the state’s eavesdropping law is unconstitutional.

If a police ofďŹ cer isn’t saying anything inappropriate in an interaction with a citizen, she should welcome being

recorded – it just veriďŹ es she is doing a good job. e same goes for judges, politicians and other government functionaries.

Why not allow ordinary citizens to record their interactions with such people?

Here’s what Chief Justice Rita Garman had to say in her written opinion: “ e statute criminalizes the recording of conversations that cannot be deemed private: a loud argument on the street, a political debate on a college quad, yelling fans at an athletic event, or any conversation loud enough that the speakers should expect to be heard by others. None of these examples implicate privacy interests, yet the statute makes it a felony to audio record each one.�

In the Kane County opinion, also written by Garman, she said, a “person may write down what we say and publish it, and this is not a violation of the eavesdropping statute. Yet if that same person records our words with an audio recording device, even if it is not published in any way, a criminal act has been committed.�

Garman failed to see the distinction between the two. Nor should she.

It’s not uncommon for politicians to deny saying something stupid that a journalist has quoted them saying. But the wonderful thing about the Internet

is that the reporter can simply post the audio recording online for the public to discern whether the quotes were accurate. e public should feel empowered by this.

So how on earth did Illinois become one of only a dozen or so states with a law like this on the books?

Well, like so much in SpringďŹ eld, it began in scandal.

Back in 1965, lobbyists were secretly recorded talking about which legislators were on the take.

Embarrassed lawmakers responded to the scandal by making it illegal to secretly tape conversations without a court order, the late Bill O’Connell, a retired statehouse reporter for the Peoria Journal Star, told me several years ago.

So the impetus behind the law was to cover up ofďŹ cial skullduggery and make Illinois lawmakers who might have been on the take sleep a little better at night. at’s a bad law grounded in ofďŹ cial deception.

It’s time for Illinois to erase this bad policy and allow folks to just press “record.�

Hitting erase on Illinois’ eavesdropping laws e Illinois Supreme Court hit the erase button last week on the state’s eavesdropping law.

It was a smart decision on a very bad law.

Millions of Illinoisans now carry cellphones that can be whipped out at a moment’s notice to record just about anything. It’s a world apart from when the state passed its eavesdropping law in 1965. Back then, tape recorders were about as big as a shoebox and not readily used by the general public. e ubiquitous nature of recording devices today has landed some folks in trouble when they have taken to recording government ofďŹ cials. In one case, a woman recorded three telephone conversations with a courthouse

D-200 school board fills vacancy Bill Nattress appointed to open seat

By ELIZABETH HARMON The Independent e Woodstock School District 200 Board of Education appointed Bill Nattress to fill its vacant seat. e board approved the appointment at its April 8 meeting, filling the vacancy left by Katherine Welch. Nattress has

been a Woodstock resident for more than 20 years.

“I am excited by the appointment of the new superintendent and the process that the board and administration will go through to set the goals and focus for the years ahead,” Nattress said. “I work in the communications technologies industry and have seen how education has evolved in this age. I look forward to bringing new perspectives on this to the board.”

Nattress, 48, works for Shen Milson

& Wilke, a consulting and technology design firm. He has served on the executive boards of the Blackhawk Area Council of Boy Scouts of America and Infocomm, an international trade association for the communications industry. He is a member of Grace Lutheran Church.

“My volunteer experience has taught me the value of teamwork in the governance of not-for-profit and trade-association environments,” he said. “It is amazing what can be accomplished by like-minded individuals when common goals and interests are known and the road is paved to achieve them.”

Nattress was one of six people who applied for the seat vacated by the resignation of Welch, a longtime member of the board. Welch moved outside the district’s boundaries.

School board members interviewed the applicants April 6.

“We had very capable applicants, and the board came to the consensus to appoint Bill Nattress,” said School Board President Paul Meyer.

Nattress had previously run for a board position in 2013, representing Dorr Township.

“We were pleased to see that he still had an interest in serving,” Meyer said.

Nattress said serving on the board is an opportunity to focus his passion for helping young people and preparing them for the future.

“By serving the community in this manner, I hope to be able to influence the opportunities and expanded horizons for every District 200 student,” he said. “ is comes with a need to be responsive to the taxpayer and the parents but always maintaining the best interest of the students.”

Nattress is married and the father of two. His son is a sophomore at Woodstock High School. His daughter is a 2012 WHS graduate who attends the University of Wisconsin-Stout, where she is working toward a degree in cross-media management.

Nattress will be sworn in at the April 22 school board meeting.

Flower shop holds teacher appreciation essay contest

By KATELYN STANEK The Independent Elizabeth Crisp said there’s a simple reason she wants to show appreciation for teachers this May. “ ey do something I could never do,” she said. “My sister is a teacher, my mother was a teacher. We’re just recognizing how difficult their job is and honoring what they do for our kids.” is marks the third year Crisp’s shop, Apple Creek Flowers, 207 N. roop St., has held an essay contest in honor of National Teacher Appreciation Day May 6. e contest, which asks students to explain why their teachers are inspiring, exciting or otherwise exceptional, is open to students from Woodstock School District 200 schools, St. Mary School and Marian Central Catholic High School.

“It gets the kids writing and thinking about the people who make a difference in their lives,” Crisp said.

Crisp is seeking help and sponsorships from local Parent-Teacher Organizations. e flower shop sends roses to the teacher featured in each of the winning essays.

“Anyone can buy a gift, but to take the time to write the reason this person is significant to you, that’s meaningful,” she said.

TEACHER APPRECIATION ESSAY CONTEST Essays must be 500 words or fewer and will be judged on spelling, punctuation, flow and sentence structure. The contest is open to students from Woodstock School District 200 schools, St. Mary School and Marian Central Catholic High School. One winning essay will be selected from each school.

St. Mary students take part in regional science fair at NIU

By JANET DOVIDIO The Independent Four eighth-grade students from St. Mary Catholic School qualified to participate in the regional competition of the Illinois Junior Academy of Science Fair. e March event was held at Northern Illinois University.

St. Mary science teacher Jennifer Cherniak is the team’s adviser. e students are Mariah White, Ty Hogel, Tyler Gillum and Colin Stoll.

Each student submitted a research paper based on the results of an experi-

ment. Mariah tested the effects of mixing Mentos candies and other mints and soda. Ty tested different energy drinks and heart rate. Tyler grew hydroponic strawberries to compare with traditional growing. Colin tested the brightness of different types of light bulbs after building a “Jolly Photometer.”

Sixth-grade teachers Hillary Russell and Mary Keisling worked with the students in writing their research reports. Eighth-grade teacher Sue Murray helped the students organize and edit their papers.

“Science fair is one of the hardest things a student in junior high will do because it incorporates so many different types of learning and related skills,” Cherniak said. “It is also one memory they will likely never forget because of how hard they worked.”

A&E Glazier brings piano and more to Opera House

By SANDY KUCHARSKI The Independent Since the mid-1990s, Richard Glazier has been presenting his unique oneman, multimedia show to audiences in every state in the nation. At 10 a.m. ursday, April 17, he will bring his show to the Woodstock Opera House as part of the 50th season of the Creative Living Series, sponsored by the Woodstock Fine Arts Association.

Glazier is a classically trained, award-winning concert pianist, who also has a passion for history and storytelling along with a talent for filmmaking and editing. e resulting show is an engaging journey featuring rare film clips, unexpected back-stories and outstanding live performances of songs woven together into a seamless, multimedia production.

“You can find people to tell stories.

You can find people to show video.

You can find people to play the piano, but to do all three is a tall order,” said Blazier.

During his performance, he tells the story of his earliest influence in music.

At age 9 he saw the show “Girl Crazy,” scored by George and Ira Gershwin.

He was so excited about the music he heard that he wrote a fan letter to Ira Gershwin. e musical legend corresponded with Blazier for three years and then invited him to visit his home in Beverly Hills. ere he had the opportunity to play a song on George Gershwin’s piano, a life-changing experience for the 12-year-old.

Fueled by a friendship with the famed lyricist, Glazier explored his passion for the Golden Age of movies – 1927 to the late 1950s – and he began crafting his multimedia performances. e theme of the Woodstock show is “From Ragtime to Reel Time,” where he’ll explore music and personalities from Broadway to Hollywood. e performance will include a video clip from the opening scene from Alfred Hitchcock’s “Vertigo,” accompanied by interviews with people involved in the music he’ll be performing. Another video clip will feature an interview with the son of Louis B. Mayer, one of the principals of MetroGoldwyn-Mayer. Mayer’s son emo-

Samantha Erne and Alyssa St. John, “Annie” Woodstock Musical eatre Company’s production of “Annie” features two actresses who share the title role. Below, they answered a few questions about their experiences portraying one of musical theater’s most iconic characters.

SAMANTHA ERNE Age: 12 Hometown: Schaumburg Is this your first theatrical performance? If not, what else have you appeared in?

No, it is not my first theatrical performance. I have performed in seven other plays, with my favorites being “Annie” as Molly (2012), “Miracle on 34th Street” as Susan Walker (2011), and “Suessical the Musical” as Samanth Jojo (2011).

Erne What made you audition for “Annie”?

“Annie” has always been my favorite musical, and the part of Annie has always been my dream role. So, when I heard about auditions at the Woodstock Musical Theater Company, I knew I had to audition for my dream role before I got too old.

What is it like to share the role of Annie with another actor?

Sharing the role of Annie with Alyssa has been a great experience because we can watch each other and give constructive criticism. It’s also great to have such an amazing cast, crew and director (Barry Norton).

Are you anything like your character? Tell us about it.

I feel like I have always been like Annie and always will be. Even though I don’t have the signature red locks and freckles, I am spunky, optimistic and have the ability to turn even the worst situations into one of the best, like Annie does in the song “Tomorrow.”

ALYSSA ST. JOHN Age: 13 Hometown: Crystal Lake

Is this your first theatrical performance? If not, what else have you appeared in?

No, this is not my first theatrical performance. I have been in 13 shows with Spotlight/Christian Youth Theater and school productions including the roles of Mrs. Macafee in “Bye Bye Birdie,” Dorothy in “The Wizard of Oz” and Annie in “Annie Jr.” What made you audition for “Annie”?

I wanted to try something new working with adults and experience a different kind of audition process, and “Annie” is one of my favorite shows. This has been a really great experience, and the cast has been phenomenal. I have learned so much from working with everyone and had a lot of fun.

What is it like to share the role of “Annie” with another actor?

It is different because you have someone to watch play the same role as you, and they may do things differently, and they may act differently, and this can give you a different viewpoint and gives you a chance to learn from each other.

Alyssa St. John

Are you anything like your character? Tell us about it.

I think that I am similar to Annie because I like to cheer people up and be optimistic about the future and what’s to come. Singing always cheers me up if I’m sad, and I’ve learned that you should always have hope for tomorrow, through the good times and the bad. Just like the song “Tomorrow” says.

“Annie” continues at the Woodstock Opera House, 121 E. Van Buren St., Fridays to Sundays through April 27, with no show on Easter Sunday. For information, call 815-338-4212.

CREATIVE LIVING SERIES: RICHARD GLAZIER When: 10 a.m. Thursday, April 17 Where: Woodstock Opera House, 121 E. Van Buren St. Tickets: $24

tionally talks about the first time he saw “ e Wizard of Oz” at the age of 6. e clip will be followed by a stunning piano rendition of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow.” He’ll end the show with Gershwin’s “Rhapsody in Blue,” his signature piece.

“It’s like we’re going to take a magiccarpet ride together, to the world of cel-

luloid and romance,” Glazier said.

When Glazier was 14, world-famous pianist Van Cliburn told him “No matter where you go, give 100 percent of what you have to give.” Glazier took the advice to heart and applies it for every performance. He said love for performing and sharing stories is what drives him to continue traveling and presenting his one-man shows. is will be Glazier’s third visit to Woodstock. He said, “Last time [I was here], I got up and I went outside and the same people greeted me, and I said ‘hello’ and I went to bed and got up the next morning and the same people greeted me and I couldn’t get out of that mold for some reason.”

Netflix’s Five Talent Tenets A few weeks back on LinkedIn, I saw “Netflix Five Talent Tenets.” It was an outcome of an article that Patty McCord wrote for the Harvard Business Review. Ms. McCord was Netflix’s chief talent officer from 1998 to 2012, and the tenets summed up her philosophy of human resources into five core areas: 1. Hire, reward and tolerate only fully formed adults; 2. Tell the truth about performance; 3. Managers own the job of creating great teams; 4. Leaders own the job of creating the company culture; and 5. Good talent managers think like businesspeople and innovators first, and like HR people last. ere are many, many different and vaunted strategies for human resources and talent management. One that was discussed a great deal was Jack Welch’s vitality curve (or rank-andyank) method of John automatically cullBuckley ing the bottom 10 Minding Your percent of employBusiness ees and heavily rewarding the top 20 percent.

While it is still used by some, it has mostly fallen out of favor. One Microsoft employee even ascribed the computer giant’s “lost decade” to internal strife created by the rank-and-yank system. Employees were more focused on diminishing their peers’ successes than achieving. ere is a 127-slide PowerPoint deck that was written by McCord, former Netflix CEO Reed Hastings and other Netflix staff that details their strategy.

It will give a better sense of how they lived these tenets and drove performance and success. e undercurrent of the presentation and the Five Tenets is about creating the opportunity and accountability for employees to be successful – to minimize rules and bureaucracy.

I like McCord’s and Netflix’s approach to organizational culture. I am absolutely sure the approach is easy and shiny and glossy in discussion and it is hard, messy and challenging in implementing. I am sure some employees thrive at Netflix and others struggle – others who would thrive in a different environment. However, I like the concepts of fewer rules and policies and more individual accountability in the work place.

With spring cleaning in mind, April might be a good time to go over your policies and procedures. You could discover rules that hamper innovation or prevent employee or team success. ere may be policies in place that were ultimately written to address the performance issues of one or a few employees.

Every business is unique; every business has its own culture and values.

As a manager and leader, you need to develop and support the values and culture. One key to that is finding and keeping employees who match the culture and embrace the values.

WL Chamber names Folliard biz of the year

By SANDY KUCHARSKI The Independent For carpenter Mark Folliard, the hammer didn’t fall far from the workbench.

His father was a carpenter by trade, and he followed in his footsteps, the only one of five brothers who made carpentry his career. He learned the trade from his father when he was just a boy.

“When we were kids,” Folliard said, “it was mandatory that you work.” Working with his dad taught him the skills, and instilled in him a strong work ethic, that have made his business a success. Excellent work ethic is one of the criteria the selection committee used to choose Folliard Carpentry, 7905 Pinoak Drive, Wonder Lake, as the Wonder Lake Chamber of Commerce Business of the Year. e committee also praised the lifelong Wonder Lake resident for superior workmanship, professionalism and for focusing on the voice of his employees as well as his customers. Receiving the award came as a shock to Folliard, although his wife, Irene, was in on it. “I was totally taken by surprise,” he said.

Folliard’s business philosophy

is simple. “I believe in random acts of kindness,” he said.

Most of his jobs come as a result of referrals. His good name and relationships have kept him busy, even during slow economic times.

“I believe in random acts of kindness.”

— Mark Folliard, Folliard Carpentry “Over the years, he has adapted to the change in the community and their needs and he was able to weather the change because of his stellar work ethic,” said Donna Sullivan, executive di-

rector of the Wonder Lake Chamber of Commerce. “He could be my cookie-cutter example. He involves himself in the community and gives back.”

Previously a window master working for Pella and Marvin Windows, Folliard has built his company to include most any type of carpentry work. He describes his company as a one-stop shop because he doesn’t subcontract most jobs, seeing a project through from start to finish.

Folliard said he credits his office staff with the success of his business, and he considers his family – his wife of almost 26 years and his two children – to be the secret to his happiness.

“I smile all the time thinking about them,” he said.

Paul Siegfried, a member of the Marian Central Catholic High School class of 2001, took second-place honors in the annual competition hosted by Chicago’s Goose Island Wrigleyville pub in late February. e contest seeks to name the top beers submitted by homebrewers, amateur brewing enthusiasts who typically work out of their basements or garages.

“I never expected to win anything,” said Siegfried, who lives in McHenry.

“It was just an excuse to brew in the

winter.”

Siegfried said he dedicates a few days a month to the hobby he picked up about two years ago after he received some brewing equipment as a gift.

“I spend a lot of time reading books and listening to brewing podcasts,” he said. “I don’t get to brew every weekend like some people do.”

Several dozen homebrewers vied for honors during the competition, which called on participants to create an imperial wheat beer, a brew Siegfried described as “complicated” to master. His particular recipe included rice hulls.

Siegfried said the experience in this, his first brewing competition, has given him a confidence boost in an arena filled with serious amateurs. “ ere is always more to learn about

Fun with fungi at River Valley Ranch and Kitchens Mushrooms are strange, mysterious, delicious – and, sometimes dangerous. ey are one of the most interesting food sources around; a food source I happened to despise as a child.

As an adult, I enjoy eating them. So much, in fact, that over the course of the past several months I’ve loved coming up with new ways to incorporate them into cooking.

Rhonda When I learned Mix about a place Roaming With called River Valley Rhonda Ranch and Kitchens – a mushroom farm and store in Burlington, Wisconsin – I knew I had to head over and explore. e farm was founded in 1976 by Bill Rose and his son Eric. A commercial kitchen was established in 1997, and the farm also recently opened River Valley Farmers Table, an upand-coming popular deli located on Wilson Avenue in Chicago.

Portabello, crimini, white button, shiitake and oyster mushrooms are the five types of fungi grown at the Wisconsin farm. Aside from the shiitake and oyster varieties, the mushrooms are grown organically. e farm plants on a 14-day cycle in order to have continuous harvests year-round.

More than 375,000 pounds of mushrooms are produced at the facility each year.

During my visit, I was lucky enough to receive a full tour of the farm, including the main growing houses and composting room. Acting as my tour guide was Cheri Daniels, a biologist and 14-year employee at River Valley Ranch and Kitchens.

We started out in the farm’s store, where a variety of homemade mushroom products, ranging from dips and salsas to bags of freshlyplucked mushrooms, can be found.

Other items include a number of vegetable products produced on-site and through outside vendors. e farm grows its own shallots, onions, garlic, tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, lettuce, squash, pumpkins, asparagus and cauliflower.

After taking a look around the store, we headed to the mushroom houses, where I had the opportunity to take a peek into the shadowy world of mushroom growing. “ ere are always challenges with mushrooms,” Daniels said as she walked me through a damp and dimly lit portabello and white button house. “It’s always a little bit of give and take, and it’s a constant learning process.”

While touring the houses, I learned the art of growing mushrooms is not merely as simple as spreading mushroom spawn in the dirt and waiting.

Mushroom propigation is a tedious and complicated endeavor. e lengthy process begins by prepping compost for mushroom spawn to grow. Prepping compost takes time and heating the mixture

to the proper temperature can take a couple of weeks. When the compost is ready for the mushroom spawn, a series of additional tasks must follow in a timely fashion. After the spawn is introduced into the compost, the mixture has to be tended to with varying degrees of temperature and care before the first mushrooms begin to rear their heads.

Daniels said two harvests of mushrooms occur per cycle, then compost has to be cleared out, and the housing rooms must be steam-treated to kill old spores.

During the summer season, the farm sells mushrooms in more than 30 farmers markets each week. In the winter months, River Valley Ranch and Kitchens brings in money from the shop and from do-it-yourself mushroom kits – very cool kits which can help people fulfill their own dreams of becoming mushroom farmers. “ ings really get crazy and hectic here in the summer, but the winter is kind of slow. So we came up with the kits,” Daniels said. ough she said mushroom farming

isn’t a job for the faint of heart, she said it’s fun work she loves.

“It’s a great job. It grows on you,” she said as we ended our tour.

My trip to River Valley Ranch and Kitchens was very enlightening, and I enjoyed learning about the mushroom farming process.

My husband and I purchased a bag of giant portabellos, which made some fantastic baked stuffed mushrooms. We also bought two mushroom kits, which we’ve planted in our house. Hopefully they’ll produce portabellos and white buttons soon, if we can keep our cats away from the boxes. ough most visitors to River Valley Ranch and Kitchens will probably not be able to tour the mushroom houses due to damaging spores hiding out on clothes, a trip to the charming mushroom shop is definitely worth a visit. e store offers a collection of products that are sure to satisfy even the most devout mushroom hater.

River Valley Ranch and Kitchens is located at 39900 W. 60th St., Burlington, Wis. For information, visit rivervalleykitchens.com.

Troop 334 visits Blue Spring Caverns Girl Scout Troop 334, which serves girls from Woodstock and surrounding communities who have special needs, recently visited Blue Spring Caverns in Bedford, Ind. is was an overnight trip with troops from Northern and Central Illinois.

Troop leader Angela Clemons said the outing was quite a challenge for the girls, who struggle with autism and other developmental disorders. ey took several boat tours deep in the Caverns, explored natural passages that involved getting wet and muddy and stayed overnight in bunks underground. “ e guides were amazing and very helpful in anticipating the issues we had and making the girls feel OK about being scared at times,” she said. e five Troop 334 scouts were Brittany and Ariel Nain, Trista and Taylor Clemons and Stephanie Arneson.

Clemons said, “ is trip was an awesome experience. e girls wanted to leave at first, but because the staff patiently addressed the girls’ fears, they learned to bravely do most of the activities. All five girls want to do this again.”

Work ongoing at Woodstock North soccer fields Soccer teams displaced during reconstruction

By JAY SCHULZ The Independent e Woodstock North High School girls soccer teams has been displaced this season, but that’s OK with varsity head coach Lauren Farley.

“I’m very excited about it,” Farley said. “Hopefully, by the end of this process, we’ll have two fields right next to each other where we’ll be able to play.”

Last fall, the junior varsity soccer field was regraded and seeded. is spring, the crown on the center of the varsity soccer field was leveled and the extra dirt is being redistributed to low spots on the field. Further, an automated irrigation system will be installed on the field. en the field will be seeded. WNHS athletic

director Nic Kearfott said he is hopeful both fields will be ready in the fall.

Eventually, a scoreboard will be added for the varsity soccer field once funds are available.

“We’ve been talking about this for a few years,” said Kearfott.

“We worked on the lower-level field first because it was going to cost the least amount of money.

It’s something that needed to be done and the soccer program deserved it. ey need it. ey are going to appreciate it, and we are

Blue Streaks standout will play basketball for St. Francis

Woodstock High School senior Cody Brand has committed to play basketball for the University of St. Francis Fighting Saints, Joliet, a National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics Division II team.

Brand, a four-year starter for the Blue Streaks, recently became the 13th player in team history to score 1,000 points.

“When I went to St. Francis and met with the girls on the team … it just felt right,” said Brand, who also visited Roosevelt University, North Central College and Northern Illinois University. “I’m really excited I get to continue my career in basketball. It’s something I have always wanted to do. Although I didn’t get a [NCAA] Division 1 school, I’m still so grateful to be chosen to play at a higher level.”

Brand met St. Francis head coach Sam Quigley at a Doug Bruno basketball camp she attended.

“I really like [coach Quigley] a lot,” Brand said. “She’s very positive with the team. She’ll make you and she’ll push you to be great.”

year as head coach this fall, said she is extremely pleased with her new recruit.

“We’re very excited,” Quigley said.

“At her size and height and her ability to play multiple positions, I think she is going to make an immediate impact, which is really what coaches try to find – players that are going to make an immediate impact when they come to a program. We’re not going to have to wait for her junior year for her to come around.

“She’s coming from a great family, a great high school, so we are really excited to have not only a good player but a good person [joining us].”

Brand, who will study nursing, said she still can’t believe her high school career is coming to an end.

“It doesn’t feel real yet,” Brand said.

“It still feels like next year I’ll be going to Woodstock. … Now that I’m leaving, the program is also changing with a new head coach. It’s going to be weird to come back and see everything has changed.”

said Taylor. “When the coach called me a week later, ‘I said I am ready to commit.’ Everything felt right. It was the greatest feeling.”

Taylor ended her senior season as Marian Central’s Most Valuable Player, a member of the Northwest Herald All-Area First Team and a Suburban Christian Conference All-Conference selection. She recorded 294 kills, 331, digs and 45 aces.

PR scored two goals in the first half, but the Streaks held them scoreless for the rest of the game.

“In the second [half], we played really good soccer,” Golda said. “[PR] is bigger and faster and stronger, so we went to a full pass game, and we looked fantastic. We tried to make their athletes do most of the chasing instead of us trying to compete with them in the air. We tried to keep the ball on the ground and move

it around. e girls felt really good about what they accomplished.” ill said the team will be ready if it plays PR again.

“If we play [PR] again this year, we’ll know exactly what we’re up against,” ill said. “We can play a very good possession game. If we can step it up with that and can be a little more physical, we have the drive to beat them.” e IHSA Class 2A regional tournament will be held at Marian Central Catholic High School and will include Belvidere North High School, Woodstock North High School, Marian and WHS. Tournament dates will be set at a later date.

Streaks kick-start 2014 season WHS opens campaign with 4-1 record and big goal differential

By JAY SCHULZ The Independent Last spring, the season did not end the way the Woodstock High School girls soccer team wanted. e Blue Streaks, who have never won a regional championship, lost 4-1 to Prairie Ridge High School in the IHSA Class 2A regional championship game at Marengo High School. Prairie Ridge went on to finish second in the state. is is a different season for the Blue Streaks. After five games, they are 4-1 and have outscored their opponents 20-3. e only loss for the Streaks was

2-0 to Prairie Ridge April 8.

“I’m very excited about how our team has started off the season,” said junior Emma ill. “I think we are using our loss to PR [in the regional final] as motivation to start the season off out and go out and get a regional championship.” e Streaks are led in scoring by seniors Kirsten Schreiner, Anna Lopatin and ill with three goals each. Four other team members have two goals each. Lopatin leads the team with four assists.

Sophomore goalie Marissa Krueger is 4-1 in five starts and has recorded three shutouts. She has made 17 saves for a save rate of 85 percent.

WHS head coach Mike Golda said upperclassman leadership has been key for the Streaks.

“We’ve been light on the upperclass-

man part of the roster, and now these girls I brought up as freshmen and have been on the team for three to four seasons are finally coming into their own,” Golda said. “We have a lot of good leadership. We have a lot of girls who played together in club in the offseason, and we returned 18 of 20 players off last year’s roster. … ey seem to be really together as a team.”

Senior Leino Haanio said, because they have played together so much, they have an advantage over opponents.

“We’re a close-knit team, and we communicate on the field better than other teams,” Haanio said. e Streaks were looking forward to their game against PR and, even though they didn’t win, Golda said he was extremely pleased with how they Please see Streaks soccer, Page 34

Marian’s Taylor commits to ISU Redbirds

By MEGAN IVERS The Independent Marian Central Catholic High School’s Frankie Taylor has committed to the Illinois State University volleyball team for the 2014 season. e Hurricane senior looks forward to com-

peting at the NCAA D-I level and continuing her career as a student-athlete.

“I’m superexcited for Frankie to finally land her commitment at ISU,” said Marian head coach Laura Watling. “She started this process for college recruiting a long time ago, and it’s

great to see it all come to fruition.

She’s had many different colleges reach out to her, so I know she gave it her sure diligence. I think this will be a fantastic fit for her. It’s a smaller program, but the competition at the D-I level will suit her well.”

Taylor’s list of potential schools at one point totaled nearly a dozen. She said her coaches’ advice that the best choice for her would feel right turned out to be true. She knew on the car ride home from ISU that the Redbird Arena was where she belonged.

“I told my mom, ‘I want to commit now. I just love it,’” Please see Taylor, Page 33

Woodstock North High School baseball player Cory Busse had one of those games pitchers dream of April 9, as the freshman pitched 6 and 1/3 innings of no-hit baseball against Christian Liberty Academy in the under’s 6-1 win.

“He did a good job of locating his pitches and keeping everything down,” said WNHS head coach Ian Rago.

“He doesn’t have a lot of velocity, but he does Cory a good job of Busse letting his defense work, and we played pretty solid defensively behind him.

“Overall, he just went about his business, and everyone backed him up, which is what we wanted to see.”

“My fastball was really working, and I got a lot of groundballs,” Busse said.

Busse held his opponents scoreless through six innings. In the seventh, Christian Liberty loaded the bases and scored an unearned run.

Senior Jamie Huntley came in to get the final two outs.

Busse said he was really excited about his accomplishment.

“It felt really good to throw a nohitter,” Busse said. “My teammates helped me out with good defense.

It’s pretty exciting.” e no-hitter represents the first for the under at the varsity level.

WNHS graduate Alec Beard had previously thrown a no-hitter at a lower level.

Rago said he is excited for the future of his young pitcher.

“Its good to see this for him,” Rago said. “He has the maturity level. We just need to work on his physical skills. I think it will give him a lot of confidence.”

Weed growth in a garden is unsightly and harmful to plants and vegetables. When weeds appear in a garden, they have already begun to steal nutrients and water from surrounding plants, and if allowed to grow tall, they can also block sunlight from reaching the plants.

Unfortunately, weeds can be resilient, and there’s no way to guarantee they won’t grow. But gardeners can take several steps to limit the growth of weeds so the plants in their gardens can grow strong.

UÊ 7 À Ê Ì iÊ Ã Ê Ài}Õ >À Þ° When weed roots are removed from the soil, weeds die.

But just because you hoed or tilled the soil last month doesn’t mean new weeds won’t grow in and start robbing your plants of essential nutrients and minerals this month. e garden should be cultivated regularly, and you should pay particular attention to the soil after the garden has been watered. If weeds are allowed to go to seed, the garden can quickly be overwhelmed by them, as young weeds tend to grow in quickly and a little water might be all they need to sprout. So make a point to routinely cultivate the soil with a hoe or tiller, being careful when working on soil around growing plants.

UÊ >ÞÊ ` Ü Ê L >V Ê « >ÃÌ V° Some gardeners may want to avoid laying black plastic down in their gardens for fear that such a weed deterrent robs the garden of its natural beauty. While that might be true, the black plastic also robs many weeds of their ability to grow in. Some weeds may be especially stubborn and grow in under the plastic, forcing their way through the holes cut into the plastic for the plants to grow through. But laying black plastic covering over the garden before it’s planted is often an effective way to limit weed growth.

UÊ >ÞÊ Õ V Ê Ê Ûi}iÌ>L iÊ }>À`i Ã°Ê Mulch can serve multiple benefits in a garden. Many people find mulch aesthetically appealing, but mulch serves practical purposes as well. Mulch made of organic materials, such as bark chips or grass clippings, is often too heavy for weeds to push through, making it difficult, if not impossible, for weeds to sprout in the garden. But mulch also conserves moisture in the soil, strengthening plant roots as a result. Stronger roots can lead to a healthier garden.

UÊ ÕÌÊ ` Ü Ê Ê « > ÌÃ½Ê i L ÜÊ À ° e more space between plants, the more room weeds have to grow. So decreasing the space between plants can limit weed growth. But spacing plants too closely together can make it difficult for vegetables to grow in as well.

Spacing recommendations will likely be included on packaging when buying seeds, but reducing those recommendations by an inch or two may allow the plants to grow in strong while limiting weed growth at the same time.

re your home’s outdoor spaces a viable place to dine, relax and entertain? If not, consider making better use of your patio, balcony, yard or deck by prioritizing this home upgrade.

Weather resistance should be a top consideration when picking outdoor furniture. Rust-resistant steel and tempered glass are both great options.

Wood furniture should be properly treated to withstand the elements. For covered spaces, you have fewer limitations on materials.

Don’t sacrifice comfort or style for weather resistance — the two can coexist. Use cushions and pillows to brighten modern décor and add comfort and style to chairs, chaises, loungers and benches.

Shade is crucial. Be sure to create plenty of it with strategic vegetation

and umbrellas.

Make your patio or deck feel more “homey” and add a splash of color with an outdoor rug. Check the tag to see if the rug is made of polypropylene, which offers staining, fading and mold resistance. Another great feature to look out for is UV resistance.

Don’t make your guests leave a great party to head inside every time they need a new beverage. Make your patio complete with an outdoor bar.

Give the space a centerpiece with a gas-burning fire pit. It’s a great place for guests to gather.

Whether you’re updating a small balcony or outfitting a spacious yard, there are plenty of ways to increase the comfort and functionality of your home’s outdoor spaces.

Watering a lawn can do more harm than good if the lawn is not watered correctly.

Excessive watering is a waste of water and can cost homeowners money while harming the environment at the same time. Water that is not absorbed by the lawn can result in runoff, which causes nitrogen in the grass, any fertilizer that was applied and chemicals in the water itself to run into gutters and eventually pollute streams, rivers and oceans.

In addition, grass needs oxygen in the soil to grow properly. But when a lawn is overwatered, the oxygen between the soil particles is pushed out, depriving roots of the oxygen they need to grow in strong. This leads to shallow root systems, which make a lawn more susceptible to stress, disease and insect infestation.

Overwatering can also be unsightly, as lawns that are overwatered tend to have more weeds, robbing even the greenest of lawns of its aesthetic appeal.

Growing Strong

Planning and maintaining a garden requires a lot of effort. But that hard work can also fall victim to nature when local wildlife ďŹ nd a garden too mouthwatering to resist.

In an effort to rid a garden of unwanted pests, gardeners may unwittingly scare away animals and insects that might just protect the garden from more ill-intentioned animals. Not every creature that scurries is out to get prized petunias or to devour tomatoes. In fact, many can prove beneďŹ cial to gardens.

Bats Bats have a bad reputation, as people unnecessarily fear bats because they believe them to be carriers of disease.

But many bats feed off of insects or fruits and will not harm a human. e average brown bat can eat 1,000 mosquitoes in an hour. Mosquitoes are not only a nuisance but also harbor potentially dangerous diseases. Bats also may eat certain rodents, which can cut down on the number of animals burrowing in a yard.

Birds While it is true that some birds can damage crops, many birds are content to feed on insects attracted to the garden, which helps to keep insect numbers in check. Chickadees, for example, will dine on aphid eggs, while larger birds may prey on mice or other rodents or simply scare them out of the garden.

Jays and mockingbirds are known to be feisty and can even deter dogs and cats from a yard. Hummingbirds will sip on the nectar of ďŹ&#x201A;owers and help pollinate plants.

Frogs Frogs and toads will prey on insects and make the local insect population more manageable. Toads primarily eat slugs, who feed on the leaves and fruits of many plants. Frogs and toads are attracted to water, so including a pond or another water feature in the garden will provide them with a habitat they like. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Metro Creative Connection
