AUGUST I, 1969 Civic Leaders Gather To Explore Hospital Needs % JJ Mayors and trustees from seventeen local communities met in Lake Zurich Friday night to explore the need for a hos­ pital in the area and set into motion plans that could make it possible in the near future. Representatives from North Barrington, Lake Barrington, Cary, Fox River Grove, Al­ gonquin, Oakwood Hills, Lake- in-the -Hills, Crystal Lake, Is­ land Lake, Deer Park, Long Grove, Wauconda, Inverness, Barrington, South Barrington, Lake Zurich, Tower Lake and Barrington Hills were invited. The show of "togetherness" was a result of the combined effort of the Barrington-Lake Zurich and Cary Grove Hos­ pital associations. In his opening remarks, C. Richard Anderson, former mayor of North Barrington, who chaired the meeting, asked for a united effort from the large delegation^ of local leaders pre­ sent. "It's time to launch the pro­ ject now!" he emphasized to the group. In urging local leaders to push for the new hospital fa­ cility, Charles Frisch, who heads the Cary Grove Hospital association said, "You know what is needed, get behind this endeavor now." He cited that residents of. the area spent from fifteen to forty minutes to reach the nearest hospitals and stressed the un­ certainty of bed availability. He also outlined the need to attract more doctors to the ar­ ea. Anderson asked civic leaders to circulate information to their communities and submit names of outstanding citizens who would be willing to serve on the "Joint Committee for a Hospital".
