THANKS Chuck Gene. On behalf of the American Legion Post 491, its present baseball team and future teams, I would like to express our gratitude to Jerome, Chuck and Gene Miller of Lakeland Construction and McHenry Sand & Gravel. Having been involved with the McHenry Shamrock and American Legion baseball teams for many years, I have first hand knowledge of the many generous contributions they have made in the form of advice, work, equipment, materials and money. I also have knowledge of many community contributions these fine people have made to the McHenry area. Chuck, Jerome and Gene have added to their long list of community contributions recently by donating earth, men and equip ment to Post 491'S new baseball field. Since there seldon is any public recognition and a simple thank-you seems so inadequate, I feel compelled to publicly thank them. I know I echo the sentiments of many people in McHenry whose lives have touched yours when I say your presence has made McHenry a better place in which to live.
