The Village of Holiday Hills CHERI HOGLUND ROSEMARY HOLTZ 385-3944 344-0615 Troop 162 Treats Families To Ham Dinner A delicious ham dinner with all the trimmings was a culinary delight which several village families enjoyed. Troop 162 treated Marge and John Connell, Glenna Fulmer, Dale and Lori Johnson and Terry and Colleen Priko to an evening of pleasure. The troop also recognized the scouting achievements and accomplishments made during the past year. Those scouts who were so honored were Rick Connell, Scott Fulmer, Craig Johnson and Pat and Mike Priko. Congratulations, boys. Don't feel sorry for the members of Troop 162 just because their campout was on the coldest weekend of the century. The boys, Scott Fulmer, Pat and Mike Priko and their able leader, Rick Connell, stayed snug and warm in the luxury cabins of Camp Wonderland in southern Wisconsin. Although a few of the boys earned credit towards badges the rest were simply enjoying the many winter sports and activities the area has to offer. A weekend of ice skating, skiing, tobogganing, snowballing and snowman- making where the cold was hardly given a second thought will long be remembered. MOMSTREAT Feb. 14 was the day for sweetheart, candy and happy Brownies celebrating Valen tine's day. The occasion was remembered with a special party and the girls enjoyed heart-shaped cookies and candy all in the appropriate shades of pink, red and white. The moms sent these goodies for the celebration.

Although our sporting couples didn't bring home any blue ribbons they enjoyed an evening of good sportsmanship with friends and family. Representing Holiday Hills were Marge Connell and Chris, Arlene Hickey and Ann, Josephine Janik and Linda, and Tillie Williams and Dale. Good going, girls. zzzzz Debbie Holtz and Jill Hoglund spent an exciting evening with school mate Tammy McDonogh at her pajama party for the younger set. The girls were celebrating Tammy's recent recovery from a long and itchy case of chicken pox. They enjoyed playing games, eating pizza and even staying up until after 10 o'clock. AND THREE MORE MAKE ELEVEN Aunt Marge and Uncle John Connell took time out from the raising and caring of their eight children to become "parents" to their three nieces and nephews so mom and dad could appreciate the warmth and sun of beautiful Hawaii. The Connells left some just plain bitter cold weather to journey to a real deep freeze at her brother's nome in Wisconsin. But never fear, along with the normal duties .of involved parenting Marge and John did enjoy various wintertime recreation, including snow shoeing and tobogganing. And if you think they left their own family -- heavens, no! The Connell kids including one large, furry dog travelled northward just to make sure Marge and John didn't forget them H.H.P.O.A.
