RINGWOOD NEWS Doris Low 653-9262 Koty Christopher 365-0037 In Special Concert PAGE 17 • PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY, JULY 8.1983 Many Enjoy Busy Weekend The weather this past weekend dampened some of the campers in more ways than one, but our locals seemed to fare pretty well. The Visconti's went to Lakeland, near Janesville for the weekend and en­ joyed it very much, except for the heavy rain and wind Sunday evening. In fact, a funnel cloud hit down in the area near them; not the same cam­ pground though. Walt and Doris Low, Bob and Gayle Laursen of McHenry took off in their respective trailers Friday to Mason Lake. Bob Low and Alice Mae and Walt Wilcox traveled along also to help Doris and Walt christen the new trailer they have. The fishing wasn't too bad either as they had a fish fry for supper Saturday evening. Bill and Annette Cunningham, along with 12 other couples went north for the purpose of rafting down the Wolf river. TTiere were two people to a raft and some folks got a little wet in the process of traveling down rivdr in a raft. Bill and Annette were lucky and didn't get dumped. Twas a fun weekend and tney arrived home Sunday before all the wind and rain in, Wisconsin. The George Lehmans spent a portion of the weekend with the Dan Hansons around the pool and cooking out. 'Twas a hot fire for those brats, George. VISIT IN IOWA OVER FOURTH Shirley and Bill Cristy spent an enjoyable weekend with their son and daughter-in-law, Diane and Larry Cristy, in Indianola, la.

GOD BLESS Family Feud Interest Cains Family Feud is one of the new events of Fiesta Days this year that will challenge the participants and provide fun for all the spectators. Participants needn't be blood relatives, but they must be related in some manner: a club, business, etc... Emcee Alan Gabor will replace Richard Dawson. The game will be played much as it is on national TV twice a week, except that contestants will be playing for fun, ribbons, and trophies instead of money. Family Feuds will take place July 22 at 7 p.m., July 23 at 1 p.m., July 25 at*9 p.m., July 28 at 6:30 p.m. The finals will follow the grand finale parade July 31 at approximately 4:30 p.m., after a special half-hour show by the special parade guest, Garfield Goose and Friends. Judith Svalander, artistic director and choreographer for Judith Svalander Dance theatre, will perform, along with other members of her dance company in McHenry's Fiesta Days. Ms. Svalander born and raised in McHenry, returned to this area to teach and begin the company after dancing professionally for more than 10 years in America and Europe. Under the direction of Bill Toalson, the McHenry city stage band will again perform a very special concert in the park during Fiesta Days, on July 28. The Judith Svalander Dance theatre will perform during that concert. The group, which has enjoyed an enthusiastic response in past years at Fiesta Days, is returning with new dances, ranging from classical ballet to jazz. During the rousing opening, the entire company dances to Ger­ shwin's "Strike Up the Band". The rest of the performance is still to be announced, but will include selections from among the theatre's repertoire. Area audiences recently enjoyed their Austrian Suites, a series of frolicking and fun dances performed fo traditional Austrian folk tunes, which features the company's unique character style. The evening will also highlight one of the group's three new jazz dances. Judith Svalander Dance theatre is a not-for-profit dance company, based in Crystal Lake, which features dancers from northern Illinois in performance with professional artists and guest soloists. The company performs throughout the area in lecture-demonstrations, dance festivals, and concerts. 7 Their recent spring concert in Elgin's Hemmens auditorium was well received, and the group's Christmas concerts produced by Woodstock's Opera House featured guest artist Warren Conover, former soloist with the American Ballet theatre. Artistic Director Judith Svalander's work with this young area company has given them both a richly varied repertoire and a polish that reflects her extensive training and 10-year performing in America and Europe. Zoo Needs Docents Brookfield Zoo is again seeking applications for its docent program. A docent is a one-day-a-week volunteer who is trained by zoo staff to inform visitors about the park's animals and exhibits. Docents become involved in many zoo activities from conducting tours to assisting zoo personnel with animal observations. The zoo is particularly in need of weekday volunteers, although a few weekend volunteers are being sought. Those unable to meet the time requirement and intense training period may apply for docent aids. Applicants must be at least 21 years old. Information about becoming a docent is available by calling or writing the Docent office, Brookfield Zoo, Brookfield, 111. 60513; telephone is 485-0263, extension 366 or 363.
