Lar- sen; and our trustees, Mr. Wilson, Mr. Grant, Mr. Koleno, Mr. Weincouff, and Ms. Zelvis. The village board is now comprised of these trustees who were elected in the last election, plus Mr. Weiler who has two nature years to serve in his office. May the year which lies ahead be a rewarding one for the residents and the governing body of McHenry Shores. Through cooperation and consistent effort, we may all achieve our future goals and be a united village that works together and plays together. NEW MOTEL? Bob and Ann Mason seem to be offering the best ac­ commodations in town, for animals, that is. The raccoons which were creating such a problem in their chimney came there to provide a safe place for , the mother raccoon to have her babies. Bob even provided a rope down the chimney so that the raccoons can leave their home to seek food. And frogs have made their home under the front porch. As if that isn't enough, a rabbit has made her nest in the middle of the back yard; Bob has placed a large bicycle flag next to the nest so that no one will accidentally mow over the nest or disturb it. Yes, you four-legged things, or ones with wings, there is space available (and food aplenty) for more of you if you'll take the time to meander over. A BLAZE OF GLORY Rose Lillegard, president of McHenry Shores for the past four years, hands her reins over to president-elect David Grimes, May 2. For the past four years, President Lillegard has devoted her entire efforts to the operation of the village. Through her timeless devotion to the office of president, she was able to provide assistance in the acquisition of Creekside Park, the purchase of much- needed police equipment, the enlargement of the police department, the placing of culverts, and the placing of street signs, and she helped lay the groundwork for the various phases which are a necessary part of the overall sewer project. Through her per­ sistence, she was able to secure grants for the village which provided funds for CETA employees, a police depart­ ment study, creek dredging, flood disaster for road repair, and study plans for the 208 Clean Water Plan. During her administration, three readings of a proposed ordinance (before passage) was initiated. She assisted people in their Social Security claims, naturalization papers, and helped children secure employment through on the job training program. She has answered the police phone in excess of four years, a time- consuming, thankless job which no one wanted and for which few people volunteered. She can be proud of the four years she devoted to this village and its residents. She is indeed going out in a blaze of glory. ANNUAL GARAGE SALES May 4 and 5 are the dates of the McHenry Shores' annual garage sales. Again as in the past, if you are interested in having a garage sale on those two days, contact Linda Panning, 344-0791, and she will be able to instruct you as to the cost of the a'd for the village- wide sale. Flags for each home and a list of important items at each sale* will be made available, too. Don't miss out on this community ' involved project. WILLING WORKERS For the past four years, Clarence Schweikert and Raymond LaFrancis have been trustees on the village board of McHenry Shores. They have devoted all of their efforts to the village and its residents. They have consistently given their free time to community projects such as pier repair, road maintenance, mowing of the ball diamond, aiding in the organization of men's Softball, and they have been in­ strumental in implementing many worthwhile projects which are reflected in the various committees on which they served: finances, or­ dinances, streets, water, and sewers, licenses, etc. Throughout their four years they were always available to listen to the people and give their opinions on the possible solutions to problems. Mr. Sch­ weikert's expertise in financial matters was appreciated; Mr. La Francis determination and devotion to the job at hand were well-accepted. Both men were willing workers and their pre­ sence on the board will be missed. HOME AGAIN Debbie Acred is home recuperating from her surgery. Glad to have you back among us, Debbie. VILLAGE BOARD NEWS At the board meeting April 18, there were sixteen people in attendance. What a pleasant turnout. Bills were approved; as it is the end of the fiscal year, most of the bills were approved for payment, only a few were tabled till the May 2 meeting. President Lillegard read a letter from the police chief, Mr. Buck, regarding the paying of a donation to the Youth Service Bureau, an organization which Chief Buck views as performing a service that is not entirely satisfactory. The board rejected the idea of having dumpsters in the village again this spring. It was felt that the disposal company would haul away almost anything set out with the regular refuse (often a call to the disposal company the day before the pick-up is the only requirement for any large item) and, therefore, the board decided that perhaps there was no real need of the dumpsters this year. Mrs. Charlene Fischer brought up the idea of having another summer program of recreation for the village youngsters. This program would again provide supervised activities for the young people of the Shores. A meeting was set for this week at which time President-elect Grimes and interested parties would plan the groundwork for the program. Information on this worthwhile program will be forthcoming. Mrs. Inga Aide questioned the board about the progress of the sewer plans. She was in­ terested in the board's reaction to the sewer plan per se because she was afraid that perhaps the sewer project was not a priority anymore. She was assured by the board that the sewer project was indeed an important item,but the necessary time element in­ volved with providing sewers for a community was a long and tedious ordeal. Mrs. Aide was also informed that even after all of the time exhausted, the people must vote on the sewers, and every new home represents a 'no' vote on any proposed referendum for sewers, so the task is really the educating of one's neighbors as to the need for sewers. There was the canvass of the votes of the election, April 17. Mr. Grimes received 172 votes and Ms. Lillegard received 144 votes. There were sixteen spoiled ballots, one partially spoiled ballot, for a total vote cast of 333. Ms. Larsen received 274 votes; Mr. Wilson 267; Mr. Grant 249; Mr. Koleno 256, and Mr. Weincoluff 241. There were many, many write- ins for the trustee position. The following totals are for the top four; Zelvis 44 votes; LaFrancis 33; Einweck 14; and Sebek 5. The board passed a resolution to accept the results of the canvass. There was some discussion regarding the chippers which the board provided in the past. It was felt that perhaps people with dead trees or branches would be willing to take them to a central location to be used by those homeowners with fireplaces. A giant bon fire for the village was also suggested. The final outcome was that there was no real need for the chippers to again come into the village. If enough people with dead limbs wish to get together with people with live fireplaces, perhaps some trading of muscle for burnable timber may be arranged at a future date. The next board meeting is May 2, 1979, 7 p.m., at the village annex. Volunteering-a worthwhile, and hopefully contagious, disease. «• Editor's Quote Book Few men have tl natural strength fol honor a friend.'s success without envy. Aeschylus Pregnant, iNEEOHELP?

On May 12, at her graduation ceremonies, Miss Bolger will be a solo performer and choreographer. (from the McHenry County Department of Health) Harvey finally found the perfect location for the family's dream home-a wooded acre on a winding country road, far from the city's street lights, noise and traffic. But there was one aspect of city life Harvey hadn't counted on leaving behind. The public sewer system his family had taken for granted up until now simply was not available in that particular part ot the county. Instead, he would have to depend on an individual sewage disposal system, and that would mean some special considerations when it came time to build. A check with the county health department gave him the information he needed. At the department's suggestion, he checked McHenry county soils survey maps and reports, and found his lot was in an area judged free of limitations for septic systems. The next step was to hire an engineer. In McHenry county, Harvey learned, every septic system must be designed by a licensed professional engineer. The engineer set about determining where the system's components-septic tank, distribution box and seepage field-would best be located. Harvey's acre satisfied the half-acre minimum required for a septic field, and provided enough area for a replacement field, should one be needed in the future. Proper separation between components of the system is one of the important elements necessary to a well functioning and safe system, Harvey learned. Percolation tests showed his engineer the seasonal high ground water level was five feet below the bottom of the planned seepage field~a foot better than the minimum requirement in any type soil. This would ensure that no pollutants would seep into the ground water from the system. Because no municipal water was available, Harvey would also have to install a well. Taking this into consideration, the engineer located an area 50 feet from the well for the septic tank. The distribution box would have to be 75 feet from the well and the seepage field was placed at least 75 feet Kile qoo*'«4 i#4 away. The engineer also checked plans for homes on either side of Harvey's property-they too had wells and Harvey's system would have to keep the same respectable distance from these. All components had to be at least 10 feet from the property lines as well. A slight slope up from the road dictated the system's front yard location-systems must carry wastes away from the home. The engineer also found he had plenty of distance-more than the required 50 feet- between all components and the stream that meandered along the back of the property. Also, the engineer specified that the field not be overlain by any structure or driveway. The extra load on the earth would compact the graveled seepage area, harming its filtering effect, tilting and-or breaking tile and losing the evapo- transpiration effect. With building plans drawn and septic designed, Harvey could now apply for his building permit.
