However, beginning at the first meeting in September, members not wearing badges will be fined as they register.

Each year in August, this day is celebrated as Christain Heritage day at First Baptist church of McHenry. "We feel a deep heritage with the pioneer days of Northern Illinois and especially that of McHenry county," said Mrs. Fred Chambers, publicity chairman for the day. "We try to celebrate in the pioneer atmosphere", she continued. "Those who want to will dress up in pioneer fashion. The day's activities will include an ice cream social, games, old-time songfest, old- fashion picnic and worship as we thank God that we do have this day to celebrate. Plan on coming on Aug. 18. This day of fun and fellowship begins at 3 p.m. The children will also enjoy wagon and pony rides".
