PAGE 4-PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, MAY 12, 1972 Holiday Hills Bonnie Kellen Marge Connell 385-6344 385-3756 Sponsor Spring Dance To Raise Funds For Roads Tomorrow night. May 13. at 9 p.m. at Casey's Hall on River R o a d , t h e H o l i d a y H i l l s Property Owners association will hold its spring dance. There will be prizes awarded throughout the evening Tickets can be purchased from your unit director, or at the door This is a very important evening for all residents of our subdivision One of the main purposes of this dance is to raise funds to help defray the legal costs necessary in our battle to get hard-surfaced roads Because of our new state constitution, we finally have a real possibility of getting the help we need to get good roads As most of you know, up until this time, there existed no possible way of getting hard surfaced roads, unless we each p a i d f o r t h e m o u r s e l v e s , w i t h no governmental help We can get this help now. but money I* needed to seek the legal ad\ ice necessary Up until the time roads can actually be started, we must still maintain our own roads T h i s i s d o n e s t r i c t l y b y v o l u n t e e r s f r o m o u r s u b division, and all gravel, gas and oil. and maintenance of our equipment is paid for by your annual association dues We pay our taxes just like everyone else, but our tax money does not in any way go for our subdivision road maintenance. This is what we hope to change in the near future. But just don't buy tickets - be there The largest profit from a dance comes from the bar sales that evening So bring along e v e r y o n e y o u c a n g a t h e r t o g e t h e r - f a m i l y , f r i e n d s , neighbors, relatives and let's have a good time - we usually do'! See you there. 4-ACES 4-H MEETING The meeting of May 2 started with the president, Debbie Smith, calling the meeting to order The cluh then recited the pledge of allegiance and the 4-H pledge Theresa Maras took a t t e n d a n c e a n d r e a d t h e minute* of the laxt meeting.

BASEBALL'S HERE AGAIN Sunday, May 14, will be a big day not only for all mothers, but also for all our Little League Baseball Players as it is the opening day for the Little League of The Lakes Baseball season. Some time ago, registration was held, teams were formed and the managers and coaches have been practicing faithfully with the boys. The festivities will start with a parade and boys in all three divisions are to meet at the 3-D Bowl in Island Lake at 12 noon in uniform. The first game will start im­ mediately following the parade. TTiere are eight teams in the league this year and many of our Holiday Hills boys have signed up to play ball. Wally Stanchuk and Scott Lundelius are managers of two of the teams in the league and Steve Stanchuk and Roy Lundelius, Sr., are coaches. Roy Lundelius, Sr., is also vice- president of the league. So don't forget moms and dads, your sons will be looking for you in those bleachers when the "Ump" cries out "play ball" and another exciting baseball season gets under way. Also a final reminder on the decal drive...it takes place tomorrow, May 13, and boys are to meet at the Island Lake Grade School promptly at 9 a.m. Volunteer mothers and dads will be needed as drivers, so if any of you can help oat in this way, please call Norma Stanchuk at 395-0338.

HIGH TALENT SHOW The fourth annual McHenry Junior high talent show was held last Friday, May 5, and several of our Holiday Hills students participated in it. Judy Abbink, Jackie Koppen and Kim Kathon were in a very cute square dance routine. Linda Filip and Cindy Weyland did a very modern jazz number as did Teresa Hampton. Jeannie Catanzaro displayed her talents in a solo acrobatic dance routine. Lovely costumes were worn by all the performers and it was an enjoyable evening for all who attended and saw some very fine talent by our students. SACRAMENT OF HOLY PENANCE Congratulations to little Angela Catanzaro who received the Sacrament of Penance last Saturday, May 6, from Rev. E. Petit at St. Patrick's church in McHenry. Angela is a third grade student at the Montini primary school. JUNIOR GIRL SCOUT TRIP During the Easter vacation, our Junior Girl Scout Troop 478 had quite a disappointment when their trip to Mill Run Theater was cancelled one half hour before departing time due to a blizzard. They were promised however that another trip would be planned and this is a reminder to all Junior Girl Scouts to be at the DeWitt residence on Sunset ̂ prive on Saturday, May 13, promptly at 11 a.m. as the leaders,Vackie Carbone and Tillie Williams, have made arrangements for them to see the "Wizard of Oz.'l Since it is the middle of May? we're all pretty safe this time weatherwise, and won't have to worry about blizzards, sofbe on time, girls, and you'll Wive a real fun afternoon. WINS BOWLING TROPHY Although most of our Holiday Hills girls bowled in the Thursday Afternoon Ladies League, we have one girl who bowled in the Wednesday Af­ ternoon League and made a real good showing for Holiday Hills. Ruth Hanke's team placed third in their league and she is proudly displaying her new trophy which was presented to her at their bowling banquet last week. Congratulations, Ruth, keep up the good bowling. CADETTE RANCH TRIP While most of us spent last weekend finding little things to do inside the house due to the inclement weather, three of our Holiday Hills Cadette Girl Scouts from Troop 41 in McHenry, Cathy Connell, Denise Hughes and Janice Novak, wouldn't let a little rain spoil their weekend and really had a ball. Leaving on Friday, May 5, they went to the Kettle Moraine Ranch in Eagle, Wis., with their troop, arriving around supper time. They pitched their tents in the rain, ate supper and went out on a hayride, retiring for the evening when they returned. After breakfast on Saturday morning, the girl/ were given horse grooming and riding instructions and then went out on the trails for several hours, riding through the beautiful Kettle Moraine State forest. They all went out on another hayride on Saturday night, again in the rain, and afterwards viewed movies that were taken at the previous horse shows. Sunday morning brought more rain, but the girls enthusiasm was still there as they again took to the trails on another horseback riding trip and when they arrived home on Sunday afternoon, muddy and soaking wet, they were still full of vim, vigor and vitality as they chatted about their ex­ periences over the weekend. Even the fact that the electric fence around the corral was not operating properly and thirty- five horses stampeded the campground; the high winds of the storm blew down several tents; and a goat belonging to the ranch chewed away some of their tent ropes; plus the fact that it rained from the time they got there until it was time to go home couldn't dampen their spirits and all three girls have wonderful memories of their "Cadette End-of-the-Year Trip." THOSE GOLDEN YEARS The parents of Rich Hanke of Sunset Drive have worked hard all of their hie, have never had a vacation, and patiently waited for retirement and those ^golden yeans", and finally are realizing their dreams of a lifetime. Having recently retired, Ray Hanke and his wife, Elma, of Lake Zurich, bought ten acres of land at White Fish Lake in Wisconsin near the Minnesota border and are building a cabin which they hope to have finished by this coming sum- You can believe in your Ford leam * BUSS FORD SALES 3936 W. Main McHenry Phone 385-2000 mer. They also purchased a twenty-two foot inboard- outboard speed boat to help them enjoy their days at the lake. Having completed this part of their lifelong dream, they decided to take that well earned first vacation and really made it a good one. They left O'Hare airport several weeks ago with friends and flew to Montreal, Quebec, then to Lisbon, Portugal and on to Madrid, Spain. They also visited the Island of Monaco, saw Prince Rainer's famed casUe and the beautiful Queen Elizabeth the Second which was anchored off the Island. A trip to the Shrine of Fatima will long be remembered by them as will the Flower and Wine Festivals which they attended while in Madrid. Mrs. Hanke reports the buildings were indescribable. They all had high domes with pictures made out of precious stones such as rubies, diamonds, emeralds and gold. Their food although similar to ours tasted com­ pletely different due to the seasonings and their coffee is thick like syrup. It is served with a pitcher of water to enable one to thin it down to their own liking. People ap­ parently don't get too thirsty in Madrid however, as water costs $1 a glass although wine is much cheaper and drank with practically all meals. Ruth and Rich received a beautiful embroidered post card and several other souvenirs when Grandma and Grandpa Hanke returned. Raymond, Richard and Robert each received a "furry" bull in memory of the "bull fights", Roberta received a "donkey pulling a cart" and little baby Renata a stuffed dog. Ruth is proudly sporting a beautiful hand made carrying bag with a wooden handle and Rich received a very authentic sword and sheath, the type used in the bull fights, to hang on his wall. They are also enjoying some very delicious wine that was brought back. Grandpa and Grandma Hanke took seven rolls of colored slides and everyone is anxiously awaiting to see them. The weather was beautiful all the while they were gone and the trip was really fantastic. It took four planes to get there and four to get home again, but when they arrived back at O'Hare Field and again on U.S. soil, they both had that won­ derful feeling like there's no place like home and it was good to be back in "old Illinois." GET WELL WISHES Get-well wishes are sent to little Jay Wise of Pine Street who is in McHenry hospital this week recovering from a case of pneumonia. Certainly hope by the time this is published he will be back home again with his family. WINSTRACK MEET AWARD Last Saturday, May 6, the G.A.A. from McHenry high school participated in the W auk eg an high school first annual girls invitational track meet and we are happy to announce that Debbie Mahon, daughter of Bill and Mary Ann Mahon of Birch street was awarded a second place red ribbon in the shot put event. McHenry high school placed fourth in the track meet. Congratulations Debbie, on the good showing for our school, and on winning this fine award. HUNGER MARCH Two little girls in our sub­ division may have a few aches, pains and blisters on their "tootsies" this week but what they accomplished was well worth - their trouble. Judy Abbink and Kim Kathon suc­ cessfully completed the thirty mile hunger march last Sun­ day, May 7, and should cer­ tainly be given much credit for their effort. In a steadily drizzling rain, they started out from Skokie at 8 a.m. and marched the whole north shore, returning to their starting station at 9 p.m. Sunday night. There were fourteen stations that they had to pass through to complete the march. A big sponsor for this "Walk for Development" was the W.L.S. Radio Station in Chicago and the marches were conducted in eight $• locations throughout Chicago and outlying cities and suburbs. Their slogan was "Walking Hurts But Hunger Kills" and the whole idea was for the marchers to gei sponsors who would agree to pay so much per mile walked and in turn donate the money which would help supply food and clothing for those not as fortunate as we. One of Judy's sponsors was the V.F.W. here in McHenry and they are very proud that she completed the entire thirty miles. Rest areas were designated along the way ^nd the people of the North Shore where our girls marched opened up their hearts and their homes by furnishing the marchers with candy, pop and cookies. Both Judy and Kim have agreed the day was a lot of fun, very worthwhile and are- looking forward to doingit again next year. They sang songs the last five miles to take their minds off their feet, and these are two teenagers that we of Holiday Hills should really^ be very proud of. PARTY TONIGHT Don't forget to leave in plenty of time to be at the Antioch Country club at 6 p.m. for the Women's club dinner-theatre party tonight. BIRTHDAYS AND ANNIVERSARIES Happy birthday to Leone Kathan on May 16, and Joseph Mroz on May 19. A very happy anniversary to Jim and Phyllis Harper on May 14. CONVENTIONEERING AGAIN Bob Kellen spent last week in Springfield attending the an­ nual Illinois Association of School Business Manager's convention. Although the daytime hours were spent in conferences, it seems as if the most enjoyable part was in the evening hours spent in the hospitality rooms.
