Lakemoor-Lilymoor Margaret Karas 385-4934 las Vegas Trip For Local Lady Anna Brzezinski spent a memorable weekend in Las Vegas. Accompanied by three friends, she spent her sixty- fifth birthday, Aug. 10, at the Riviera in Las Vegas, with a birthday dinner at Del Monica, and then on to the exciting night life. Anna tried her luck and got two jackpots her first day, one the second day, and on the third day returned some of the profits of the previous days. A one-day tour to Boulder Dam was enjoyed, and then back to the fabulous strip. The big name shows were very expensive, so our foursome opted for viewing the stars on TV. Many places had con­ tinuous entertainment, such as "Circus, Circus", which has a different performance every few hours. Ann and her party didn't really need professional entertainers to provide fun, as they could see and enjoy the antics of the others around them. As when a particularity voluptuous person entered the lounge and even the bartenders stopped working to stare. And when the gentlemen were left alone for a few minutes, the opportunities opened to these, "Golden Agers" by the young seeking the gold without the age! Noticed was the economic pain of the gas shortage. Anna had been in Las Vegas 18 months ago, and the changes were noticeable. No longer were there as many free cocktails, from the airplane ride through the casinos. Ex­ penses were being reduced by cutting back on some of the extras previously enjoyed. Ann was content to be a part of a completely different life style for just one weekend, She even went swimming, the first time in ten years, in sister Jean's swimsuit. enjoyable, she into the swimming West campus. On her return to home and local problems, Anna, having said she would give a donation to the Lily Lake fund of a percentage of her winnings, presented the L.L.C.C.I. with a check of ten percent of the money she came home with. A nicer lady couldn't have been the recipient of such an exciting weekend. RESIGNATION ' Susan La Croix Brindise's resignation letter was read at the McHenry Nunda library board of trustees meeting last Thursday evening. Susan has been an active member for about five years, serving as president for part of this time. Her enthusiasm and expertise will be missed by the board and the librarian. Anyone in­ terested in becoming a board member to help determine the future of our library may contact Mrs. Louise Hipwell, president, for information. To improve library service, extended hours will be started, the exact times to be an­ nounced next week. With youngsters returning to school, some members of families may have more free time to enjoy the books and music the library has to offer. 385-6303 is" the number to call regarding library questions.

We wish you good health, Doug, and envision you back at your job and here at the lake, your usual strong and depen­ dable self.

This doesn't seem to stop this energetic lady from her full time drapery business, taking care of husband Paul, planning a retirement home in Arkan­ sas, and taking time to hdp with the lake project. Some of us are talkers-about-doing, but Ann is a doer, as is Paul. May you both enjoy good health and the fruits of your labors. GETTING WELL Peter O'Rourke is home from his hospital stay and feeling better. He has 'to watch that blood pressure, so is working in his yard and gardening a little slower. Happy to have him home again is his wife, Connie, another busy lady involved in Lake moor's governing body. TAG DAY SUCCESS The Lily Lake fund was helped Aug. 11 by the generosity of persons in McHenry. Mitzi and Skipper Gurske spearheaded the youngsters and adults involved. Sherill Weber and sons, the Kmetz boys, Chris and Stephen Mumma, Debbie Vornkahl, Sherry Jones, Ramona Neeley, Deia May, Margaret, Bobbie Hueckstaedt, Robert Gurske, the Dawdy boys and Suzanne Rasmussen were among the young people working. Adults included Mag Dunnagan and Maureen Paroubek. Sometimes Tag Days are considered a begging project, but when help is needed and the community responds, all benefit.
