PAGE » - PLAINDF.ALER - WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 22,1982 MCCullom Lai(e Down Miller 085-4901 -- Buf Not AWay! Vandalism Is Real Problem The first board meeting of Sep­ tember was held Tuesday evening the 14th. It was reported that some tables are missing from the beach house. No one person or club or organization is to take anything from the building without informing Trustee Lois Parenti, who is in charge of the building and the possessions. It was announced under new business that the little store will be opening soon with new owners. Have any of you parents been down to the! beach lately to notice all the damage to the equipment and the building that has been going on? The new jungle gym set that was pur­ chased for our children by the com­ bined efforts of the Beach Gals and the village is now bent over at a 45 degree angle. - One of the teeter totters was completely pulled out of its position and thrown on the sand. A brand new sodium vapor light, which is quite costly, was completely destroyed. A piece of the new gutters that were just installed this summer was completely flattened out. It is amazing how much destruction the youths of this village are capable of. The expenses of all these damages comes out of our taxes, not to mention all the time spent by our village i ficials in trying to keep the beach a._ play area decent for our children to enjoy. Isn't it about time that we all watch our children much closer and maybe even keep them home a lot more? Tf vou have any complaints or compliments on how this village is run, please attend these meetings and let the board members know how you feel. Board meetings are held on the second and fourth Tuesdays of each and every month at 8 p.m. at the beach house. Get involved. By working together, we can make this village a better place to live.

Had the weather cooperated, about 40 contest winners would have had a 20- foot ride in the balloon. STAFF PHOTO-WAYNE GAYLORD "It's too windy and unpredictable," said the balloonist. "For the safety of the kids and the equipment we can't do it." A balloonist from Crystal Lake, John Poulin, was on hand last week at \James C. Bush school in Johnsburg to help kick off the start of school. According to Kathy Mullen, organizer of the event, 40 children, drawn from 80 winners of a contest, would have gone up to a height of 20 feet in the balloon if the weather had permitte<J. On a gusty, gray morning, however, the balloon rides had to be cancelled. Poulin had some difficulty controlling the 70-foot balloon. "I tried to put it up, but got bounced around a lot," Poulin.said. A ramp agent for a Midwest airline, Poulin has been ballooning for about a year. "You can't imagine the freedom, the experience, until you've done it," Poulin said. "It's so quiet and peaceful." From basket to top, the balloon measures 70 feet in height and has a girth of 50 feet. The basket weighs 140 pounds and carries the propane tanks which provide the fuel for heating air. The pressure from the tank creates a 12-foot to 14-foot flame which heats air, creating lift. The bottom of the balloon envelope is made of a non­ flammable material while the rest A made from 1.9 ounce ripstop nylon --\ a common material in tents and clothing. When asked how he got into the sport, Poulin replied, "Well, I was going to college and did a photo series on a balloon port and it^ was all downhill from there." Poulin later started "crewing" for experienced pilots who showed him the equipment and taught him what to expect. Later, he was licensed as a balloon pilot. He flies out of the Windy City Balloon port in Fox River Grove. Open New AWANA Season Sept. 22 The McHenry Evangelical Free church has announced the opening night for the 1982-83 AWANA season.
