PAGE 10-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1972 PISTAKEE HIGHLANDS Bobbie Fantus 497-3509 Name Officers, Committees In Association On Wednesday, Oct. 4, the regular meeting of the Pistakee H i g h l a n d s C o m m u n i t y association was called to order by President Fantus. The following people were ap­ pointed to hold positions in our association. Mae Kolb, «?ho was our previous financial secretary, has been reap­ pointed. Don Freeland is our new road commissioner. Jim Fantus will head the road p e t i t i o n c o m m i t t e e . Congratulations to all as we are sure they will do a fine job. Already our road force is at work under the supervision of Road Commissioner Don Freeland, preparing for fall grading and snow plowings in winter. More stop signs are going to be placed in the highland for bad street crossing. Depending on availability they are also looking into the placement of speed limit signs. A New Year's Eve committee has been selected and is now in full swing on preparations for the annual event. Harold Bichler, chairman, and com­ mittee consisting of Craig Thoren, Mae Kolb, Bobbie Fantus and John Heidler, will be meeting soon to discuss arrangements. New vehicle stickers are on order and will be available after the first of the year. They are attractively arranged to represent the Highlands in red, white, and yellow. New curtains to cheer up the center are being donated by Joanna Heidler and Bobbie Fantus. They will be hung as soon as the window repairs are completed. We owe our thanks to Ed Burda who volunteered his time to fix the windows that were broken. After installation of new glass, plastic coverings will be put up in preparation for winter. Board meetings have been changed to the third Monday of the month at 8:30 p.m. Paid up members are welcome to at­ tend. WOMEN'S CLUB At the Sept. 27 meeting of the Women's club a lovely fashion show was presented. All present thoroughly enjoyed the event. The ladies will be hosting the Illinois Federation of Women's clubs at their county meeting Oct. 11. It will be held at the Snug Harbor Boat club in McHenry. The regular meeting Oct. 25 at 7 p.m. will be a costume and dinner party. This will be for members only and fines will be imposed for ladies not in disguise. On Oct. 28, at the Association center, a pumpkin carving will be sponsored by the Women's club. Age groups start with pre­ schoolers, through twelve. Children must bring already decorated-or carved pumpkins for judging. A first, second, and third prize will be awarded for best decoration in each group. BOAT CLUB ACTIVITIES For awhile it looked as if the Boat club would sink. Now officers have been elected so get out your oars, polish your boats, and oil your motors as the ball is rolling again. The new officers are Pete Neilsen, chairman, and Ken Sandrick, secretary-treasurer. The 100 foot sea wall will be put in this year, weather permitting. SCOUTING NEWS Girl Scout Troop 408 will be going on a hay-ride at the Lazy K ranch and are preparing for their campout in November. The Scouts are also to be thanked for their clean-up program at the center and we hope they will keep up the excellent job. ; HIGH WATER We are all aware of the enormous rain fall this year, tjowever some feel the effect more closely. One must try to imagine the thoughts of those who live on the channels, as at certain times they were able to sit on their front steps and watch the water level rise. Charlie Krammer, who happens to live on Circle drive, and had his boat tied to his front porch, reports we had over eleven inches of rain in Sep­ tember. This unprecedented rainfall has caused a two and one half foot rise of the chan­ nels. The high water has also severely damaged the main beach off Lake street. Ed Burda reports that over eight feet of frontage has been washed away and a 10 by 10 foot segment of bog depositied on the remains of the beach. Ed says he will clean up the beach as much as possible but a major effort by many will be needed in Spring to restore the area. Residents in the high water area have requested that speed boats refrain from using the channels until the water recedes from their property.

Eight street signs were either pushed down or tampered with. Over the same weekend the road block protecting flooded Circle drive was removed and damaged. The sheriff's police were notified and patroled the af­ fected area that Saturday and Sunday evening. The street signs that were still intact have since been remounted. A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT The Pistakee Highlands Community association is of great importance to all who live kept up. Many projects are also undertaken to improve the community in which we live. Pistakee Highlands is nearly a thousand strong, yet only twenty-five people showed up this past week to organize, prepare, and run current projects. This lack of interest and participation limits the scope of our projects and steals from their effectiveness. There is much to be done and few who are willing to do it. I have only been in office one month yet I repeatedly hear about the split between young and senior how old you are, and pitch in to make good and needed things happen in Pistakee Highlands. Our next meeting will be Nov. 1, and I would like to welcome anyone in good standing to attend, join our projects, share in meeting people, and making good friends. Jim Fantus.

Girl Scout Cadette Troop Needs Leaders Is there anyone in the community who would be in­ terested in keeping a Girl Scout Troop going? There are thirty girls in Cadette Troop 411 in need of leaders. The Cadettes are composed of girls in the seventh, eighth and ninth grades. This troop serves girls in Johnsburg, Pistakee Highlands, Sunnyside, East­ wood Manor, Lakemoor and Lilymoor. The service team has exhausted all avenues in its search for leaders. Girl Scouting is an important part of this community, since there are so few outside activities for girls to take part in. You do not have to know anything about the program to be a leader, just a desire to work with girls. Training is provided and other leaders are always ready to help. Please call Mrs. Robert (Mary A) Weber or the troop will have to be disbanded. Lakeland Park Brownie Troop 464 is also in need of leaders. Anyone interested, call Mrs. Richard (Sharon) Wohlert. Claire Engh Publicity EXPEDITE BENEFITS Liaison between veterans on Illinois' college campuses and the Veterans Administration in Chicago to assure veterans efficient payment of educational benefits will be provided by the Governor's Office of Human Resources. To receive quick payment, a veteran must send his cer­ tificate of eligibility to the college which, in turn, sends it and the certification of enrollment to the VA office. State workers appointed to campuses to inform veterans of their benefits have counseled 7,000 veterans since start of the program in January. •uncurU Fwrtfoel X-Large Crest Toothoaste with O C coupon JW only Mfgrs. 89c 5 ounce size.
