PAGE 19 - Pl.AINDEALER - WEDNESDAY, APRIL 25,1979 Wonder Lake Anne Sowers 653-9549 County College Holds Presentation On Rape Sponsor "Village Run" At Wonder Center Beach Get you track shoes out and , start getting in shape for the\ "Village Run" which will take place Saturady, May 19, beginning at 10 a.m. Registration will be held from 8:30-9:30 a.m. before the race begins at the Wonder Center beach which is located • on Lake Shore drive across from the Triangle. T-shirts will be awarded to all contestants who complete the race. First, second and third place trophies will be given to the top three winners in each category. There is a category for everyone. The categories are for 10 years and under; 11-15 years; high school age; 19-29 years; 30-39years; 40-49years; and 50 years and over. You may sign up for either a two mile course or a six mile course. This event is under the direction of Jayne McMillan, the physical education teacher at Harrison school and spon­ sored by A1 Mrowka. Both of these young people grew up in Wonder Lake and now have chosen to work in their com­ munity and to become involved in making it a fun place to live. Jayne takes much interest in the children of Wonder Lake by getting them involved in gymnastics and a volleyball team. I was told by one ob­ server that when Janye is out jogging along Lake Shore drive, you can always see four or five of her students joining in. A1 is also active with the young people of the Lake. He was seen last summer as the terrific emcee of the Wonder Lake Ski Show. He was also one of the performers who did a fabulous job. In talking to both Jayne and A11 became as excited as they are about the "Vilalge Run". It should be another exciting event to really put Wonder Lake on the map! WONDER LAKE HAS A SECOND "300" BOWLER It is rather hard for me to stay impartial in any of the news I report, but especially in this one. Excitement has been running wild in our household since my husband, Chuck Sowers, bowled a 300 game in the Tuesday Night Men's League at the Richmond Bowl. This is the third 300 game rolled in McHenry county this year, with two of them taking place at Richmond Bowl by two Wonder Lake bowlers. Chuck has had a fabulous year of bowling, ending the season witha 189 average. He says the 300 was something he always dreamed of seeing someone do, but never thought he would actually do it himself. I don't mean to take any of his glory away, but I think since I was the one who gave him the bowling ball for a Christmas present, the bowling shoes for a birthday present, and the bowling bag for an anniversary present, some of the credit, should go to the equipment manager. Chuck's family is very proud of him and we're all glad to be able to share in his happiness.

Total votes cast were 290 as compared to 147 cast in the last election. Jim Rachel won the position of president over the incumbent Jay Stelter by thirteen votes. Elected as trustees for a four year term were William An­ dreas, Dave Kuziel, and John Sorenson, and to a two year term was Sander VanPeski. Elizabeth Kelly, the village clerk, had decided not to seek reelection, but she received 111 write-in votes to retain her position. The new officers will take over on April 26. BROWNIE FLY-UPS INVITED TO TROOP 416 Recently all the Brownie Fly- ups, girls who will be entering the Junior Girl Scouts next year, were invited to a special meeting designed to introduce them to the Junior Scout Troop. Those Brownies in attendance were Jackie Darnick from troop 492, the leader of Pack 419, Mrs. Ropp, along with three of her Brownies; Nancy Diederick, Dawn Richardson and Emile Fornwall. Some of the activities in­ cluded a talk given by Jenny Turner explaining the patrol system, voting system to elect a patrol leader and the special bridging patches. Allyson Lane read "Why I Want To Be a Girl Scout", which she wrote. Girl Scout cookies were the dessert to end a fun afternoon. The junior troop spent the day in Harrison-Benwell woods recently on an all day hike. Cheri Wright, Scout leader, said that the sit-upons, which had been made by the girls, came in handy since the ground was very damp. The girls learned trail marking, sang songs, and studied the changes in the environment brought on by Spring. They fulfilled many requirements for several badges. It was an eight mile hike beginning at 7 a.m. and ending around 2 p.m. I'm sure the girls returned home very tired, but filled with wonderful ex­ periences.

Mitchell acting chief of police for the Sunnyside police department has informed me that to date no one has claimed the pontooft boat the police department pulled from the Fox River. The boat apparently broke loose from its moorings during the flood. The police department can hold the boat for 90 days. After that the boat will be disposed of. So if you lost a pontoon boat during the flood you can claim your property from the Sunnyside police department by identifying it. If you lost a blue pontoon boat call Sgt. Mitchell and claim your property Sgt. Mitchell also has in her possession a bicycle found in the Sunnyside area. The bike is in good con­ dition and if you are missing a bike you can call Sgt.
