Thursday, February 28, 1963 TOE McHESftf^PXJkJNrsEALfiS Pag* Holiday Hilla NEW SLATE OF OFFICERS ELECTED BY ATHLETIC CLUB | „ Inez Youa# A new slate of officers has been elected by the Griswold Lake Athletic club. Their last meeting, held at the Kasprzyk, home, brought the following intd office. Bill Mahon, president; Frank Frantz, vice-president; Norman Szamlewski, treasurer; and Don Teuber, secretary. "The club is composed of residents of Holiday Hills and the"Griswold Lake area. These boys do some very fine things in fhe area, the two most commonly known being the sponsoring of the local Boy Scouts, antf arranging to have Santa Cla«s pay a special visit to the are$ and inviting all the youngsters who can come to do so. Their activities include several teams that bowl in Island Lake on Tuesday night and many varied activities during the-year, many to which the wives are invited. Many of us have enjoyed the breakfasts served out of doors by the boys during the past few years. I hope they find it possible to do it again. Speaking for the gals, it's fun to have someone else behind the stove, and these boys do such a fine job on pancakes, eggs and sausage. Congratulations to the new officers and lots of luck in the coming year. fbucets. In one case considerable damage was caused--with two and one-half feet of water filling a crawl space and putting the furnace out of order at 3 am, with a sick child in the house. Beside the inconvenience, considerable damage and expense were incurred. In the other cases called to my attention fortunately, no serious damage occurred, however, there might have been. If these things were done by youngster^ who don't know any better, Mothers, please tell your children about the damage done and caution them not to do it again. Many people have been alerted to watch for the offender. Of course the responsible party would have to pay for damages incurred. Please watch your children and your water faucets, let's see that it doesn't happen again. Pistakee Terra<J| ASSOCIATION i -- MEETS MARCH 4 AT WIGGEBMAN HOME , Joyce Toepper -- 3854044 The next association meeting will be held on March 4, beginning at 8 p.m., at the home of President Ron Wiggerman. Please make an effort to attend since spring is near (?) and now is time for the association to start rolling on their many projects. Heart Fund Drive As captain of the drive here in Holiday Hills, I would like to show my appreciation to ' the gals who volunteered to brave the cold and snow to knock on every door in the subdivision. It's gratifying to note that whenever a drive such' as this comes up there is never any problem whatever getting volunteers. On this drive the willing volunteers were Jean Baird, Marge Connell, Phyl Harper, Virginia Lundelius and Joan Schroeder. Gloria Smith also volunteered but was unable to go out when her daughter became ill. I would like to explain why we -thave these fund drives when you may have already contributed through your payroll at work. Payroll deductions are made through the Crusade of Mercy which gives to many organizations,- unfortunately, some of the larger organizations such as the Heart fund, cerebral palsy, Cancer and several others do not receive sufficient amounts t© carry on the important research work to which they are dedicated. Without additional furids it would take years longer to bring help to your family, mine or your neighbors. When funds are asked for, they are desperately needed. Many thanks to all of you who were so-generous during this recent Heart Fund drive. Get Well Wishes Two great big get-well wishes this week to two youngsters-- Gigi Smith was taken to Children's Memorial hospital on Sunday, Feb. 17, where she stayed for almost a week. She is now back home working hard at getting well. Patti Baird came down with a bug that has her confined to McHenry hospital. This will never do, hurry and get,well, both of you. Brownies Brownies Troop 150 began their Tuesday meeting by collecting their dues and telling good deeds.
