Lakemoor-Lilymoor Alma Hueckstaedt 385-5689 Hold Important Mooting On Local Improvements The Illinois General Assembly passed an act authorizing certain counties, including McHenry County, to undertake local improvements outside of municipalities whenever the public necessity requires such improvements. Local improvements include the construction or recon­ struction of streets, avenue, lanes or road within or abutting on any platted subdivision to make them conform to the rules, specifications and regulations established by the County Board. Such improvements are to be paid for wholly by special assessments of contiguous abutting property. The Lilymoor Association has the necessary petitions that will be circulated at the Nov. 14 meeting. All residents are urged to attend this important meeting. The time is 8 p.m. The meeting place is 319 N. Glen- wood avenue. If you have any questions regarding this subject, come out to get the answers. SUCCESSFUL PARTY Lakemoor's Halloween party was a huge success. Ap­ proximately one hundred and twenty children attended. I have been told they all had a very good time and everything went well. Donations were made by Violet Nixon, Ritai Casey and Rose Zalenka. MOVIETIME INLAKEMOOR Friday evening's movie will be a cowboy movie.

I PISTAKEE HIGHLANDS Bobbie Fantus 497-3509 MARKET PLACE SHOPPING CENTER (HORNSBYS) DAILY 9-9 SUNDAY 9-6 Discuss Many Projects During Association Meet The general meeting of the Pistakee Highlands Com­ munity Association was opened by President Fantus at 8:05 p.m., Wednesday, Nov. 1. The minutes from the previous general meeting and board meeting were read and ap­ proved, followed by the treasurer's report which was read by Jim Fantus due to the absence of the treasurer. The next order of business was snow plowing, hot pat­ ching, and grading bids. With all bids completed, the association made the selections according to quality of work and price. Frank Meier received the vote for all three and the final contracts will be signed Nov. 5, at the home of Road Commissioner, Don Freeland. Stop sign poles have been mounted and at this time new signs are being purchased to mount on these poles. Street name signs are also being bought to replace signs that are either missing or damaged. A copy machine has been donated to the association by Mount Hope church. The machine will be kept at the Fantus home and anyone wishing to use it please feel free to do so. The association voted to give a donation of $25 to Mount Hope for the machine and thank them very much for their thoughtfulness. A special fund has been set aside since August to rewire the association center. Bids have been accepted and Lee and Ray Electric was nominated to do the job. Harold Bichler, chairman of the New Year's Eve party, announced that on Nov. 3 a meeting would be held at his home to discuss further details for the event. Tickets have been designed by Ed Burda and will be ready to be sold soon and will only be sold to Highland residents. Favors and food arrangements will be taken care of at this meeting as the music has already been selected. This year the association will try a first. A Christmas decoration contest will be held on Dec. 23. Ed Burda will be the chairman and is now selecting more judges to work with him. A first, second and third prize will be given in each of the following categories; best lighting, most original, and most creative decoration. Everybody put on your thinking caps for your decoration and make the Highlands glow for this yule season. A special meeting will be called immediately following the next general meeting for the purpose of raising the dues. Families and lot owners will be affected only by the raise. The dues raise will cover the cost of many new projects that are going to be undertaken and include vehicle stickers to all paid members. ~ At the adjournment of the meeting all present enjoyed refreshments which were furnished by Shirley Freeland. ROAD IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM On Wednesday, Oct. 25, a meeting was held in Woodstock at the courthouse annex. The meeting was conducted by members of the McHenry County Board of Supervisors and the County Highway Commissioner. The purpose of this meeting was to discuss and hand out petitions for road improvement for unin­ corporated areas. Pistakee Highlands was represented by Jim Fantus, Bobbie Fantus, Don Freeland, Shirley Freeland and Joe Turuc. The Board set the date of Dec. 1 as a deadline for returning petitions. We were informed that under the local improvement act, the county board can make im­ provements in unincorporated areas if they are petitioned to do so by the residents of that area. Instructions were given to obtain as many signatures as possible, concentrating primarily on home owners. If lot owners can be contacted, this of course would help. The petitions are to show that a definite interest exists in wa­ nting an improvement in the roads, as the county will be spending its money to engineer the project. Any petition submitted after Dec. 1 could be delayed up to ten years. Road improvements made under this program will be paid for by special assessment on the property owners. On Monday, Oct. 30, Jim Fantus called a meeting at his home to inform all trustees and officers of the association about the petitions. Specific areas to be petitioned were assigned along with special instructions. A time limit of one week was set to complete the canvass. The streets to be improved are: Vern, Nippersink, Little, Ray, Woodland, Henry, Burr, Louella, Lucina, John Circle, Sunrise, Bunny, Hilltop, Christine, Annabelle, Agatha, Pheasant, Hickory, Oriole Trail, Acorn, Bridge, Short, and an alley on Sunrise. NEW RESIDENTS The Highlands seems to have a population boom as many new families have moved in recently. We would like to extend a hearty welcome to the following families, W. Zejewski, B. Carpenter, L. Rogers, A. Muzer, R. McKay, D. Swanson, J. Walters, T. Mitchell, W. Alden, the Kramer family and Sharon Papp's family. We hope they will enjoy living here very much. Any new residents having questions or needing information on the area please feel free to call Mae Kolb who will direct you to your trustee. BOATCLUB The tentative dance for Nov. 18 which was' planned by the Boat Club has been canceled due to no available band. The club will take up some pending old business following the December Association General Meeting. WOMEN'S CLUB On Oct. 25, the Women's Club held its monthly meeting at the association community center. At this meeting they had a costume and dinner party in which winners for best costume were selected. Sally Bruen- chenhein came as Mary Poppins and won for having the prettiest costume. The most original award went to Nancy Klein, who came as Minnie Mouse and Dorothy Cooley and Jan Goscinski who teamed up as a little leaguer and pom-pom girl for having the funniest costumes. Congratulations go to these ladies for much effort and imagination in their creations. A tour is planned by the ladies on Nov. 21, in Wonder Lake, at the Day Care Center for retarded children. Following the tour a luncheon is planned at the Hunter Country club. All wishing to attend or needing more information please contact Kathy Sandrick or Gloria Thoren. Ways and Means chairman for the Women's Club is Mary Ann Kemmer, who volunteered for the position and chairman of the cancer fund drive is Delores Neilsen. The pumpkin carving contest held on Oct. 28, and sponsored by the ladies turned out very successful. Eighteen children participated in the event. Each brought their own decorated or carved pumpkin and prizes were awarded for the best work in each age group. The ladies will be preparing for Christmas at their Nov. 29 meeting. Any ladies having ideas for making decorations please bring them along. CUBSCOUTS A Halloween party was held on Oct. 31, by the Scouts for about 200 children. The children present had a good time and all left over candy was donated to the Woodstock Children's home. Pack 452 is grateful to the association for the use of the center for pack meetings and parties. However, due to the large increase in the size of the pack they have been forced to move to the multi-purpose room at the Johnsburg junior high. The third-quarterly paper drive will be held Dec. 1 and 2. If you have been saving papers, put them out on your driveway on Friday, Dec. 1 after 5 p.m. The papers will be picked up between then and 12 noon on Saturday.
