CERTIFICATES A $29,000,000.00mutual association serving Northern Illinois since 1925 Phone 568-7258 Marengo, Illinois The Crystal Lake Hospital association this week continued working toward its mid-summer date with the State Hospital Licensing board by expanding its board of directors and getting a financial feasibility under way. David Blahnik, president of the association, reports that the Crystal Lake board voted unanimously to increase its board of directors. The additional directors will represent other community centers in the service area of the proposed hospital. Blahnik has named" Ralph Greener of Crystal Lake as chairman of a nominating committee to seek responsible leadership from the communities in the southeastern portion of the county. "We expanded our board of directors because we think it's important that the entire area have a voice in the planning of the facility," Blahnik continues. "We definitely want their help*" The Crystal Lake Hospital association has obtained an option on a 32-acre site just west of the intersection of Rtes. 176 and 14 on the northwest corner of Crystal Lake. "Normally we would have preferred to wait until our board was completed with representatives from the entire area," Blahnik says, "but we felt this property was too valuable to risk losing." "This is another reason why we want to get the board expanded as quickly as possible," he says. " Decisions have to be made, and the sooner the whole area takes a part in making them, the better." Next week, American City Bureau/Beaver Associates will begin a four to six-week investigation of the proposed hospital service area to determine! if sufficient funds are available to construct the hospital. The hospital will be operated as a non-profit organization, sipported by public donations, and the board will seek the assistance of federal funds earmarked for new hospital construction. The estimated amount necessary to be raised in the service area is $2% to $3 million. The feasibility study itself will be focused on four major points: Urgency for the hospital, financial ability of the area tp support a campaign, the potential for enlisting volunteers to conduct a major fundraising campaign, and proper planning for carrying out the campaign.
