Many homes in Holiday Hills were without electricity for a period of about 8 hours giving us just a small idea of what can happen without heat and electricity. We were fortunate indeed when we see what happened in areas like ..Barrington, Lake Zurich, Wheeling and many others who had to leave their homes for Red Ci;oss shelters. Isn't it wonderful "to be nice and cozy in a warm house on these cold winter days? New Cub Scout Den W The Cub Scouts have started another den with Gail Szamlewski as the new den mother.
