CONSTRUCTION ACCIDENT Wednesday, Oct. 5, while at work on a new home under construction in Sunnyside, Bob Kennebeck fell 10 ft. from a ladder. The Johnsburg Rescue squad was called and Bob was taken to McHenry hospital where he was treated for a broken leg. Hope you'll soon be on the mend and back at work, Bob. TROOP 454 Cub Scout Troop 454, John­ sburg, is still in need of some adult help. There are many anxious little boys waiting for the troop to get started. If there are some ladies out there who love little boys, would like to work with them and see this troop get started, call Tina Betts 653-4511. Needed are three den mothers and three assistants. Mr. Magro who says he loves kids and working with them volunteered to become Scout Master. How about calling Tina and volunteering your ser­ vices? The boys need you. POLICE NOTES Sunnyside Police department will hold another bike registration Oct. 23. Since the September date only had forty- three people show up to register their bikes Chief Kramer has decided to repeat the service. Registration will start at noon until necessary. It will be held at Leo Backs horse barn on Wilmot road across from the entrance to Emberwood. Mark the date and take advantage of this program. HOUSE NUMBERS Once again the Police department has asked that I remind people of house num­ bers. The fact that we are a rural mail route with mailboxes on the road does not mean that you do not need a house number posted. Emergency vehicles such as police, fire department and rescue squad cannot find a house by numbers on a mailbox half a block away. Just last week the police had an emergency call late at night and because there was no house number posted, they spent twenty minutes looking for the house. Twenty precious minutes. Under certain cir­ cumstances, those twenty minutes could be the difference between life and death to someone. So please as you are going about your fall clean-up work get those house numbers in noticable view. NORTHWOODS VISITOR Julie Rosinski of Conover, Wis. spent last week visiting with her parents, Betty and Rich Messer. Taking a break from their restaurant business Julie stayed with her parents and also spent some time visiting with other relatives in the area. While Julie was visiting her parents, her husband, Ralph, was on a deer hunting trip in Wyoming. Then it's back to business and a busy season. Julie and Ralph were married in April and this will be their first winter in the North woods. Living in the heart of snowmobile country, Mom and Dad have been in­ vited \ip to see winter in Wisconsin and go snowmobiling.

Village of McHenry Shores Jude La Francis 385-5067 Kids Can Help A little help from the kids can make mealtime a lot easier for working or busy homemakers. Children can easily set the table, fill glasses with ice and help carry foods to the table for ser­ ving. Older children, after some cooking experience, may cook simple dishes for a complete meal. They may prepare one meal a week and give mom a real break, or, they can help prepare parts of the meal such as a tossed or other salad. Youngsters Tempt Federal Displeasure Several residents have complained about having other people's mail in their mailboxes. This, however, was not due to any error on the part of the postman; instead, some youngsters have been discovered transferring mail from one box to another. Parents, please discuss the penalties involved in tampering with mailboxes. Children should be discouraged from playing with the mailboxes. VILLAGE BOARD NEWS Present at the regular bi­ monthly meeting of the village board were several representatives from high school District 156 who discussed the proposed school referendum. Many questions were asked, problems defined, and answers given. Where were all of the" in­ terested McHenry Shores' residents? Where were all of the fact-seeking people? These guest speakers were present to perform a service for this community; this community did not respond en masse for this informative meeting. Nevertheless, the village board was there to represent the people and the board members asked the questions which concerned citizens would have asked had they been there. An ordinance is being proposed concerning the adopting of regulations for the construction, substantial im­ provement, subdivision of land, placement of mobile homes or other development in relation to flood hazard areas. This ordinance pertains to the availability of homeowner's flood insurance in flood prone areas. The ordinance and fee schedule is available for viewing at the village hall. New radar for the police car is presently on order and will be installed soon. Seal coating will begin soon. Two court cases betweeen the village and two separate firms were resolved in favor of the village. The first involved a fine of $1% for an overweight truck and the fine was paid by Knox trucking. The second involved a nuisance fine of $50 which Terry builders paid. The time has come to move the boats and campers, which have been parked in the front yard, to the rear or side yard of one's property. This is in compliance with a village ordinance. Also, if you have any doubts as to the need for a construction permit, please contact the building and zoning officer at the village hall. BIRTHDAYS Songs, laughter, parties and fun add up to great times for...John Novotny, Jr. who will celebrate his fifteenth bir­ thday, Oct. 16. Arthur Randall Egger who has his eighteenth birthday, Oct. 17. And Karen Panerali who will be 5 years old, Oct. 17. Also Dorothy Koleno who has her special day Oct. 18. Congratulations and may all of you sing the birthday song for many years to come. HALLOWEEN PARTY Soon there will be a flyer sent out to all residents announcing the date and particulars for the annual Shoreliners' Halloween party and Christmas bazaar. Those residents who make craft items for the holdiays are asked to make an extra item for possible donation to the Christmas bazaar. This year all proceeds from the bazaar will go toward the purchase of new chairs and tables for the annex. The annex is used by several organizations within the village: Brownies, Girl Scouts, Shoreliners, village board, social-athletic programs, and any other group or organization which requires the space. The annex is for all residents; therefore, the new tables and chiars essentially benefit the entire community. LEGISLATION NEWS In keeping with a policy of reporting all news items, this report is passed on to you. The city of Naperville has won a suit which it brought before the Supreme Court that ruled that any municipality which has land is entitled to collect school donations on building permits. This ruling was handed down last week. LIBRARY NEWS The McHenry Shores library has twice as many volumes as it once had due to generous donations. Also, volunteers are needed to help the librarians. If interested, contact the village hall. The pen is the tongue of the mind, as the tongue is the sword of the heart. McHENRY BLUEBIRDS--Promoting the United Way campaign, McHenry Bluebirds participated in a demonstration of wreath braiding near the display in Crystal Lake recently. Pictured, left to right, front, are Valerie Nothnagel, Kim KuH, Peggy Schoenstene, Heather Belts and Amy Nystrom; back row, Erin Anderson, co- leader, Audra Michaels, Kelly Rossmann and Joyce Michaels, leader. The wreaths, made of jute, are a holiday project for the group. . Lakemoor-Lilymoor Margaret Karas 385-4934 Grade Level Of Education Put To Vote Saturday, Oct. 15, is an im­ portant date for the grade schools in our area. The voters will decide whether school District 15 will be able to continue its current level of education, or if drastic cuts will be necessary, due to the in­ flationary costs of just about everything. The voting will be at Hilltop grade school on Lincoln road this Saturday. This is a very important concern to all of us and merits your trip to Hilltop. See you there Saturday. FREE! How is your blood pressure these days? With the high cost of medical care, anything for free should be taken advantage of. Vicky Behan, R.N., takes blood pressures every third Monday of the month from 7 to 9 p.m. at the Lakemoor municipal building, with Barb Nejedly doing the record keeping. Barb stated that last months screening was the largest turn out so far, with twenty new people in addition to the thirty or so regulars. If there is sufficient interest, Ms. Behan will make arrangements for talks by doctors on any given subject. Let her know Monday, Oct. 17, what problem you would like more information on.

This time there were four winners, Sophie Paterson, Joan Delatorre, Lu Gravenstuk and Carol Greef. The booby prize was won by Joan and Carol's mother, Helen Metzel.
