February 18, 1960 THE McHENBY PlAINDEALER McHenry Shores Highlights Of , Snow Storm By Clare Mueller. EV. 5-0553 combination of wind and snow really put a 'dent in activities out here and many of the residents who work in nearby areas had a vacation , for a day or so until the roads were made negotiable again, i The children enjoyed the extra fays home from school as the uses were not operating. It was foresight on the part ot our subdividers to have the tw^new roads out through to McHenry Shores or we would have been bottled up for several days because of the large drifts covering Idvle Dell road. It -was finally opened to one wav traffic Friday. Don't know who was stuck for the longest time but heard tell that Bill Corcoran was stuck more time than anyone els&kThe Crystal l^ake car poo1 sp* yp after almost six hours . of struggle. Art BrUnke. and Bill Dostal headed back for home while Gus ^ Smith and . Clare Mueller carried on to Chicago, arrivins there about 2 p.m. Gordv Hattan thought that he'd have that bank of five foot snow left by the snow plow, across his drive, cleared - off by late Saturday afternoon. Difcyou finish it on schedule, Gorrty ? Speaking of Foresight Now that' the subdivision has -grown in size to the south and west, some thought and possible action could be taken by the residents and Messers Engvalson and Miller about provisions for installation of a re^ room in the area of the beWh and picnic grounds. To those who have enjoyed this spot these past summers, many remarks have been overheard about the lack of facilities, and at times, the stench that comes from the weeds surrounding this lovely recreation spot. It is of the opinion, that the two groups, working together, could arrive at a workable solu| jpn to this now seemingly minor problem that with the expansion of the subdivision, could grow to be a major nuisance. Nearby residents, on many occasions, have offered the sanitary facilities of their homos to the mothers with youngsters. This is all well appreciated, but as the community grows, let's give some thought to^the future. Why not keep McHenry Shores a leader of Civic pride in the McHenry area? Right now would be a good time to dump sand on the ice, so that when the thaw comes, the swimming and beach area would be well sanded. birth of a son.
