PAGE 8 - PLAINDEALER-FRIDAY, AUGUST 30, 1074 McHenry Shores Mrs. Rose Lillegard Columnist Writes Independently Of Village Censor In the last several months, it has been brought to my attention that some of my readers are under the impression that this column is written under the censored eyes of the village. I wish to take this ooportunity to publicly state that I write the column in my own words and that I do not have any proof readers prior to submitting it for publication. The column has always been for the people of McHenry Shores and news has always been welcomed and accepted. The column is a news coverage of the people and the doings in the village, whether it be social or business. Social news is usually submitted to me by the individuals involved and the business news pertains to the open public meetings of the village board. Board meetings are a vital important part of our community and for some reason or another, many residents are unable to attend on,a regular basis. I therefore present in the column a report of the important decisions and discussions that take place at thfc public meetings. I attempt to;report the meetings so that the reader would feel that they themselves had attended. Anything and everything reported is officially part of the minutes and all minutes are either approved or corrected by the Board. There has of date been no correction that would have changed my reporting of the meetings. In one particular column I reported on a discussion that was held at a public meeting and was questioned why I reported it When it was asked not to ition it in the column. I felt it it was business and was iportant to the residents of Ms village. I will continue to form my readers so long as t#ey are reading my column iid question when there is an bsence of a weekly column. SUCCESSFUL PICNIC The McHenry Shores Social Club sponsored the annual picnic and fun day Saturday, Aug. 24, at the beach. Some 200 guests were in attendance and from the comments received all enjoyed themselves and were quite surprised by all the food for a small charge per ticket if purchased in advance. Uncle Ken, the clown, ran all the games for the children with many prizes being awarded to the winners. Big bird and Cookie Monster were on hand to amuse the hearts of all. I'm sure that on behalf of all those who attended we wish to say thanks to the three gals who organized the function. So to Bonnie Paneralli, Dee Vogel and Joan Werth *and of course to all the people who helped throughout the day a great big thanks. Needless to say, besides all the delicious food another fun attraction was the sponge throwing booth. The booth was a financial success but to many of us, it gave us the opportunity to toss a wet sponge at a v^lage official, of course all in fun, and fun was had by all who participated. Results of the games were as follows: the 5-6 year olds winner Charlene Norman; 7-8-9 year old winners Tina Baggio, Donna Zutaut and Teresa Buck; 10-11-12 year old winners Ira Baines, Danny Borchardt and Sis Baggio and finally the adult three legged race was won by Jerry Olbinski and Rose Lillegard after a tie occurred and had to be run off the second time. LaFRANCIS RECEIVED MASTER DEGREE Sunday around 3:30 p.m. Ray LaFrancis returned to his home to find that some sixty-three relatives and friends had gathered to congratulate him on his completion of his school studies for his master's degree in physical education. It was a surprise party given by his lovely wife, Judy. Participants in the celebration arrived from Chicago, Schaumburg and Elk Grove Village. I'm sure that Ray will long remember that happy day. Graduation ceremonies will take place at a later date at Northern University in DeKalb. BOWLING LEAGUE The McHenry Shores social bowling league will begin on Friday, Sept. 13, at McHenry recreation. There are still some openings and we invite anyone interested to contact Rose Lillegard, 385-4517. At a meeting held earlier in August the membership voted on officers for the new year with the results being, President- Rose Lillegard, Vice President- Mary Lou Heald, 'Secretary- Terry Malone and Treasurer- Vivian Klein. We invite new membership and you need not be a resident of the village. We are a social league and the bulk of our averages would bear that out. VILLAGE BOARD MEETINGS Since my last column there have been two board meetings. One was a special called meeting Aug. 15 to replace the regular meeting of Aug. 8 that was cancelled due to President Nixon's resignation speech. Bills were presented for payment as follows: Genral Fund $692,39, MFT Fund $779.07 and the Road and Bridge Fund $275. President Bieritz read a letter from the McHenry County Highway Department requesting that Idyl Dell Road be renamed to Bull Valley Road. This request, if granted, would apply to that section of Idyl Dell Road that runs from Hilltop to Gregg Drive. An Ordinance regulating dogs on beach premises was passed by a yes vote of 4, and one absent. This ordinance can be found printed elsewhere in today's paper under the legal notices. Due to a vacancy on the village board since the resignation of Trustee Hicks, the name of Robert Steck was presented to the board for consideration. With a vote of 5 yes and 0 nays Robert Steck was appointed to fill the vacancy of Larry Hicks for the duration of the term to expire in April 1975. Mr. Steck was sworn in by Clerk Lillegard and assumed the duties of Trustee. The police department was enlarged with the acceptance of Thomas Velmont as a patrolman. ,, At the regular Board of Trustee meeting Aug. 22, Mr. Froehlich presented the Board with the annual audit. Mrs. Moyer reported on tHfe final inspection of the beach in regards to the Federal Grant and now all inspections have been completed and the next step would be to apply for the total dollar value arrived at from all inspections. The annual levy ordinance was passed and is printed in pamphlet form for those wishing a copy. The bulk of the meeting was spent on the discussion of what to do with the roads now that the final figure of the federal grant had been arrived at. Clerk Lillegard had previously supplied copies of road specifications to all board members for consideration. At one point in the heated discussion, it appeared that the specs would not be advertised until spring. It was noted that there was not enough time. Another comment was that why assume anything until we first try for bids. Trustee Olbinski made the motion that the specs be put out for bid and the vote passed with 5 yes and 1 absent. The final point of business was a ,request by Clerk Lillegard that a contest be held in the village, for a design to be used on our village vehicle stickers. It was decided that a contest would be held and that a ARE YOU IN NEED OF . . . * Kitchen Cabinets * Range Hoods & Medicine Cabinets " * Bathroom Fixtures * Fi- ^ * berglass Showerstalls • Vanities and Tops * Gas < & Oil Furnaces * Air Con- ditioning, Central andWin- < ^ dow * Hot Water Boilers < > and Base Radiation * Sump > Pumps * Water Softerners SEE OUR DO-IT-YOUR-' < • SELF HOME IMPROVE-0 (> MENT DEPARTMENT ( • THE BATH SHOP o 3012 W.

Church Sets Adult Classes Three new adult education classes will begin soon at Shepherd of the Hills Lutheran church, 404 North Green street, McHenry. On Sept. 4 at 7:30 p.m. a new Bethel Bible class will begin prize of a savings bond be awarded to the winner. Further details will be forthcoming in my next column. The meeting adjourned at 10:35 p.m. with Alan Olson serving as the teacher. The following week a morning Bethel Bible class will begin, to be taught by Pastor Roger W. Schneider. The Bethel Bible series offers a student of the Bible an opportunity to get a good overview of the Bible. It is not a search for details. The major themes in the Bible are studied in such a way that a student can easily see the continuity of the salvation story as revealed in Holy Scriptures. The course works with forty large art pieces containing images which remind the Scrambled Eggs And Tomiton Beat one dozen eggs in a large mixing bowl; add 1 cup milk,Ms teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon aro­ matic bitters and V« teaspoon pepper.

The class will meet once a week for a two-hour class setting and will continue over a twenty-one week period to cover both the Old and New Testaments. A third adult education class entitled "Exploring God's Word" will begin Oct. 2 at 7:30 p.m. and will be taught by Norman Macdonald, Jr. The class will make an in-depth study of the Gospels and the book of Acts in the New Testament. The only requirement for all three adult education classes will be that the students attend the classes. Assignments will be given which may be accomplished at home for personal enrichment but they will not be required. Anyone in the community is invited to register for any of the three classes by calling the church office or adult education director, Alan Olson at 385-3374. ture.
