V I PAGE 9-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, MAY 2, 1973 Holiday Hills KAREN KOTTKE 385-66; _ Brownies Need New Leadership Or Lose Charter Previously, I had announced that Linda Thietje is seeking retirement as a Brownie Den Mother. I have since learned that Vickie Partkus will also resign at the end of the school year. If anyone is interested in becoming a Den Mother please contact Linda (385-6483) or Vickie (385-6883) as soon as possible. If these positions are not filled the Brownies could lose their charter.*' HHPOA NEWS A meeting of the Holiday Hills Property Owner's Association was called for Thursday, April 12. I un­ derstand that a group of about thirty residents came to the meeting only to see it called off because the residents of the subdivision had not been in­ formed of the time and place for the meeting according to Parliamentary procedure. WOMEN'SCLUB BANQUET REMINDER Just a little reminder to all the ladies in the subdivision that the Women's Club May banquet is scheduled for Friday, May 18, at the Shady Lane Playhouse. Be sure to mark your calendars as \^cT like as many women as possible to enjoy an "evening out" with us, ' RESIDENTS INJURED IN HOME ACCIDENTS As if the Mahons don't have enough injuries in their household this year, we find still another member of their family with injuries. Julie Mahon was wrestling with her brother a couple of weeks ago and broke her arm. She'll be sporting a cast for about six weeks. Diane Boettcher had the misfortune to have her finger smashed in a door. I don't think there is any worse pain than that inflicted to one's fingers or toes. Get well soon both of you. ISLAND LAKE LITTLE LEAGUE BANQUET Along with Spring comes the annual little league baseball games. On Sunday, May 6, at 12:30 p.m. the Island Lake Little League baseball team will hold their annual banquet at the Island Lake grade school. Parents of the little leaguers will be called upon to donate food for the event. You mothers will be phoned during the week to let you know what foods are needed. EASTER HOLY COMMUNION--1-- CELEBRATION Easter was not only a time for celebrating the joyous resurrection of our Lord, but the celebration of the first Holy Communion for seven year old Craig Johnson. The Dale Johnson family of Sunset Drive attended the 12:15 p.m. Mass at St. Patrick's church to see their son receive his Communion. Later in the afternoon, ap­ proximately thirty guests joined the Johnsons at their home. It was a double occasion as Laurie surprised her parents with a cake and party for their twenty-ninth wedding an­ niversary. The Louis Stiglichs of Wauconda were extremely pleased with the party in their honor as well as their grand­ son's first step into maturity. RESIDENTS MAN SANDBAGS As we all know the calmly Fox River is rebelling. Several homes in the area have been inundated by it. We've had sandbag parties for several days. So far no one has packed up and abandoned their homes so we are all hopeful that the worst is over. I'm sure everyone appreciated the helping hands from their neigh­ bors. It was most gratifying to see so many young people helping out also. We would also like to express our gratitude to those folks who don't even live in this subdivision, but offered their services and materials when we needed them. Thanks again. EASTER EGG HUNT Easter is such a busy day to many of us and it's no exception at the Kottke home. We at­ tended the Family Worship Service at St. John Lutheran church in Island Lake and after the service the youth group sponsored an Easter Egg Hunt for the children of the congregation. The kids were divided into two groups - the nursery and toddler set and the grade school age. The children loved looking for . the eggs and the eggs sure were well hidden. My son, Ricky, found a prize winning egg and won a chocolate bunny, that made a total of three chocolate bunnies for the day. I did manage to. talk him into saving one of the treasured bunnies for another day. Later in the day we joined the rest of my husband Jim's family at his parents' home for the big feast. TRIP TO PHOENIX Did you ever dream of get­ ting in your car and just driving? Take a week off to visit someone you miss? Well, that's what Sharon Kottke did a couple of weeks ago. She and her children, Laura and Chris, packed up and drove to Phoenix, Ariz., to- see her sister, Melisa Perlow, and her family. Sharon has always loved the mountains, so she naturally took the route through Colorado. They were beautiful, but had lots of snow covered roads to travel through. We expected them to come home nicely tanned from swimming in the Perlow's pool, but I think Sharon and Melisa stayed inside and gabbed and let the kids go outside to enjoy the 80 degree plus tem­ peratures. Unfortunately as vacations go the trip was all too short. BIRTHDAYSAND ANNIVERSARIES I hadn't intended to writp a column for the last week of April as there wasn't much news, then all of a sudden it began to trickle in. I missed a few birthdays and an an­ niversary so I'd like to begin by wishing birthday greetings to Dennis Jeschke, on April 28; Mary Kay Catanzaro and Kristin Johnson, on April 29 and Janice Emmons on May 2. Happy anniversary to Bill and Mary Ann Mahon on their special day, May 1. Research work conducted by the forest industry and the Colleges of Forestry has resulted in the development of genetically im­ proved seeds, fertilizers and mod­ ern cultivation practices. These advances will bring about a new type of "super" tree which should greatly increase growth rate and yield and thus speed up the re­ placement phase of the industry's continuing reforestation program. with Mom in mind!

Judges of the Circuit court have issued a proclamation asking citizens to "reflect on the meaning and value of law in a democratic society." The individual citizen approaches the court to seek redress and secure justice, not as a matter of privilege but as a matter of right, asserts the proclamation. "Observance of Law Day underscores the responsibility of every citizen to help main­ tain an independent and strong judicial system to assure our individual and collective rights are made effective," declares the proclamation signed by Judges James Cooney, Charles Parker, William Gleason, Leonard Brody and Thomas Baker. Announcement of the winner of the Liberty Bell award -- honoring someone who has contributed significantly over a period of time to the rule of law was scheduled Tuesday. During the week, several members of the McHenry County Bar association will speak before school groups. Some of those appearances have already taken place. The annual Law day banquet is scheduled for Friday night. May 4, at Turnberry and tickets are still available. The McHenry County Bar association sponsors the Law day observance. Chairman this year is Joe Condon, Crystal Lake attorney.

FLORIDA VACATION Mrs. Dolores Jaburek and her two children, Dawn and Darin, traveled to Crystal Beach, Fla., for a fine Easter vacation. The family spent the week with Mrs. Jaburek's father, who took them fishing every day. It was great fun to catch large trout, flounder and reds each morning. In addition, they all were fortunate to view the Ringling Brothers Mansion in Sarasota. Their vacation was indeed a memorable and ex­ citing experience for the entire family. EASTER HOLIDAYS Lyall and Chet Andersen went to Des Plaines for Easter Sunday dining at the home of their niece and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Larry Funken. Grandma Andersen sewed beautiful candy-striped maxi dresses for her three grand­ daughters, Michelle, Kathy and Jeannie, who all looked lovely enough for the Easter parade. Also Mrs. Stella Reid, who is Lyall's 84 year old mother, enjoyed a wonderful day with the family. Erna and Ed Piatt had a great Easter in Chicago at the home of Mr. Piatt's sister and her husband, Lil and Clem Kleszyk. They also stayed for a few days with their son, Tom Piatt, and his wife, Helen, who live in Chicago too. Karen and Mickey Schaefer along with children, Mike and Kim, spent their holiday with Karen's brother, Kirby Kellner and his wife, Betty, from McHenry. The occasion also called for the birthday celebration of their niece, Debbie, who was four years old. Cindy and Curt Erickson traveled to Morris for the weekend to visit Curt's mom and dad, Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Erickson. Steve, Julie, and Gary were pleased to see Grandma and Grandpa Erickson and had much fun romping around their house.
