t* Lakeland Park 385-6448 Ramble Road Neighbors Hold Block Party Neighbors on Ramble Road were pleased the weather was so nice last Saturday as that's the day their huge block party ' was held. Ramble Road was closed from Home to Lakeland Avenues and the festivities began around 3:30 p.m. when the neighbors began gathering in the street. I understand the party was such a success it went on and on and on! Forty-two adults and their fifty-eight children joined in the family fun. Food was most plentiful as each family brought their own meat and for a nominal fee were enabled to sample each of the delicious salads donated by the moms. Pop was provided for the children and each family brought their own beer or whatever! Six double sized cakes served everyone for dessert! From what I un­ derstand, no one was hungry! Along with the delicious food, chatting, and later dancing, was enjoyed by the nineteen families, which included the Lauers, Justens, Nusses, Welniaks, Leopolds, Pitells, Gilberts, Smiths, Johnsons, Thompsons, Humphreys, Schiffers, Altergotts, DiBlasis, Rickerts, as well as Mrs. ; Hendle and sons, Mrs. Hansen ' and daughters, Mrs. Krier and her daughters, and Mr. Olson. From what I understand ' everyone had a terrific time and enjoyed getting together one last time before winter ! arrives. The women in­ strumental in planning the .day's festivities aren't quite sure if it will become an annual event, but they hope so! KOFFEE KLUTCH HELD Beverly Walinski's home was the scene of the most recent "koffee klutch" held to benefit the Pioneer Center. And, Bev had a house full of guests that included Mary Dobbins, Fleda Rogers, Gladys Kopsell, Mrs. Meyers, Alice Sullivan, Sharon Gacek, Millie Gende and her son, David, Judy Patterson and her daughters, Melody and Michelle, Frances Kostra, and Pat Tollisson and her daughter, Randy. Everyone had a most enjoyable time chatting and taking advantage of Bev's hospitality. The "koffee klutches" are a brainchild of the Lakeland Park Women's Club. Each woman and child donates a sn^all contribution which will be turned over to the Pioneer Center. (Melinda) Bassett, and her assistant, Millie Gende, tell me that the. troop will be meeting evenings this year. Date and location will be announced in next week's column but in­ terested girls in fourth through sixth grade should make note the meetings will be held at night beginning the third week of this month. You may phone Mrs. Bassett (385-1487) for further information. TROOP 459 NEWS The first meeting of Boy Scout Troop 459 will be held Tuesday, Sept. 11, at the community house. This meeting promises to be very interesting as Scout Master Raymond Jensen plans to show slides of previous trips taken by the Scouts. The meeting begins at 7:30 p.m. and usually is over by 9 p.m. Meetings are always held the second Tuesday of each month. Young men eleven years old and older who are interested in joining the troop should plan to attend the meeting next Tuesday. BROWNIE NEWS Co-leader of Brownie Troop 464, Mrs. Judy Irwin, tells me that Sept. 18 is the registration date set for moms to ac­ company their daughters to sign up to become Brownies. The girls should be in first through third grade and meetings will be held each Tuesday at 3:30 p.m. in the community house. This is where the gals should register. Co-leader of the troop is Barb Williams. If for some reason a mom can't attend the registration day, she should phone Mrs. Irwin, 385-2506. BACKYARD PARTY Four families enjoyed Labor Day festivities with their very own'yard party. Rain visited them briefly but they all were determined so the party was quite a success. Homer and Melinda Bassett and their daughters, Lisa and Amy, David and Millie Gende and their son, David, and Jim and Gladys Kopsell and their children, Vicky and Wes, were awaiting arrival of Patt and Judy Patterson and their children Mark, Matt, Michelle and Melody, when I tuned in on the event!

Happy birthday to you all! NOTE... Since I began writing this column in June, I have wanted to up-date my book and contact each family in Lakeland Park individually. Well, days, weeks, and months have passed me by and I still was not organized enough to follow through. Next week I will begin by contacting a family to obtain a small profile such & who they are, how long they have resided in Lakeland Park, where they hail from, and their children's names and birth dates. If you are not interested in having your family background in the column then by all means just say so. I filed the idea in the back of my mind but it was suggested to me last week and I decided that as long as others were interested in getting to know their neighbors I'd give it a try. So, until I chat with you we'll have another "family of the week" in the column! FAMILY OF THE WEEK (Where else to start but here!) My husband Steve and I will celebrate our fifth wedding anniversary in November and our third anniversary in Lakeland Park in February!

Once again the American farmer is being made the villain in a period of rising costs. It's easy to blame the farmer for higher food prices and overlook the complexity of factors that have combined to boost the grocery bill. One group which defends the farmer is the organization of local, independent community banks throughout the nation, the Inde­ pendent Bankers Association of America (of which we are a mem­ ber). We know the farmer's prob­ lems. We know his income still seriously lags behind national growth. We know he is being made a whipping boy. Because we know this, we say so: Here, at home, where we share his problems, and, through the IBAA, in Washington. For generations the American inde­ pendent bank and the farmer have worked together for a common prosperity, a common effort to serve the nation. Let's keep it that way . . . after all, the farmer is an important part of us. McHENRY STATE BANK PHONE 385-1040 3510 WEST ELM STREEtN*lcHENRY "LET'S CALL THE ROLL!" COMBINED VACATION The Hagerty family recently took an interlocking vacation that took them away for one month. Art and his daughter, Gracie, enjoyed camping while Winifred, Art's mom, visited her daughter and her husband, Mr. and Mrs. Martin Sauerhafer, in Rochester, New York. Art and Gracie went tent camping along the Wisconsin River Flowage and eventually wound up in the Dells. They enjoyed themselves roughing it and especially enjoyed fishing. They joined Winifred in Rochester then went on to Long Lake, New York, where the Sauerhafers have Whispering Woods Camp, which is family owned. Here's a family with no generation gap as they all enjoyed themselves on their month-long vacation!
