Trade Fair Supplement -- Feb. 27,1WS -- Page 9 Original idea of trade fair can be traced to Ann Zeller perhaps the most unique in­ dividual relating to Trade Fair is Ann Zeller, the supervisor of hostesses for Royal Welcome, Inc. It was through Ann's sugges­ tion, direction, perseverance and encouragement that Trade Fair was instituted and repeated. A 30-year resident of McHenry, Ann has been a member of the Chamber for 15 years and with Royal Welcome since 1967. Royal Welcome is one of the two greeting services that serve the McHenry area and suburban Chicago. She AMI Zeller began as a greeting hostess in McHenry, later evolving into sales and eventually becoming a super­ visor of hostesses for the organiza­ tion. She was a board member of the Chamber for three years, Trade Fair co-chairman for three years and has been on the Trade Fair committee every year since its in­ ception in 1972. The extensive history of the Trade Fair that ap­ pears elsewhere in this special section was compiled by Zeller through the various records available and many hours of inter­ viewing. As a mother of 10 children, she still found time to be the co-leader of a Cadet Girl Scout troop and a charter member. She is a member of the McHenry Business and Profes­ sional Womens' Club and, for the past six years, has served on the Dist. 156 parent advisory council. Zeller is a member of St. Patrick's parish and has served with the McHenry High School booster club for six years. Not only has she participated from the planning to the clean-up of the Trade Fair, but she has been on staff nearly every hour of every fair. She staffs the Chamber booth and has been responsible for the exhibit sponsored by Royal Welcome. Royal Welcome tradi­ tionally is a co-sponsor for one of the civic exhibits, most frequently the Girl Scout exhibit. Gattone applies her knack for organization to fair An outgoing and involved member of the Trade Fair '85 committee is Pat Gattone. No stranger to Chamber participa­ tion, she has been a member for five years, just six months after becoming a sales representative for Mary Kay cosmetics. She became a sales director for the company three years ago. Gattone's ability to coordinate many levels of living has extended Food area is Mazrin's assignment Food Concession Chairman Judy Mazrin will be monitoring the two restaurant-caterers serv­ ing food at Trade Fair '85. With Mazrin's initiative, there will be live trees and plants decorating the eating and serving areas along with new added seating ar­ rangements. She will be working directly with the owners to ensure that prices are reasonable, table areas are clean and-the quality is on a par with the high standards of the Trade Fair. The Whale's Tail will be serving fish and shrimp and Sunnyside Foods will sell hot and cold sand­ wiches. Mazrin is responsible for table set-up and noted the donations of time, tables and trees by Alex­ ander Lumber and Phil Hoffstet- ter. She also chairs the annual meeting and dinner dance> which will be held next September. In addition to her other duties as a new Chamber director, Mazrin owns The Traveler World Wide, a McHenry travel agency specializ­ ing in vacations. She and five employees will be exhibiting at the Trade Fair with a special feature on European travel. Mazrin and her husband, Rick, have two sons.

She co-chairs this committee with Aid. Elizabeth Nolan. During the past three years, she and her Wolter will be 'on the air' with important information to the Trade Fair as well. Not only has she assisted with the Chamber booth, but she has been an ex­ hibitor for the past three years. She served at the Chamber booth last year and assisted in the plann­ ing and set-up. Gattone found time between work and Chamber ac­ tivities to direct the Sweet Adeline chorus for nine years in McHenry. She is currently directing the St. Mary's all-boy choir and is an organist at the church. District 156 administrator Norb Wolter will be responsible for an­ nouncing important happenings over the Parkland Junior High School public address system. Lost children, exhibitor in­ formation and upcoming events will all be heard through Wolter's efforts. Being a Chamber of Commerce board member for the past two years has prompted Wolter to par­ ticipate in the 1985 Trade Fair also. In 1984, Wolter served as co- chairman of the Clean-up commit­ tee that kept the Trade Fair look­ ing great. His other duties have in­ cluded the 1984 annual meeting, the 1983 Christmas parade and an active role in Fiesta Days 1984. Wolter also represents the McHenry Area Chamber of Com­ merce in the "Chambers of the Chain" organization. He served on the committee that sponsored the September 1984 panel presenta­ tion concerning the Chain of Lakes-Fox River Water Manage­ ment Agency. He will continue as McHenry's representative on the five-member commission.

She is a charter member of the commit­ tee.
