PAUK 4 - PLAINDKALKK-WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 11. 1974 Lakemoor-Lilymoor Alma Hueckstaedt » , 385-5689 Parents Make Children Aware Of Curfew Hours This notice is for parents who may have become a little lax in making sure their children under 18 years of age are in their home by curfew time. For Sunday through Thursday the time is 11 p.m., and on Friday and Saturday the time is midnight Parents it is up to you to enforce these deadlines because if you don't and your child or children are out and the police are called when someone either sees them or are disturbed by them, then the end result will be problems for boUi you and-or your child. ; CORRECTION In my last column it was stated that Rusty Hueckstaedt had a Skate-a-thon. He did not have one, he was one of the contestants as was Sherry Mint on Sherry skated for five hoyrs and Rusty skated for se*£n hours. I for one think it is gr(fct what some of the young [>e<5pie do for such a worthy ca$se as the Muscular Dystrophy fund Rusty had many sponsors for the Skate-a- th<$i many of which were acquired by Ruth FYeeman for wh*ch he was grateful, because as an end result Rusty collected $8(£for the fund headed by the w«|l known T V star Jerry Lewis. The local rink had fifty-three contestants who were all eager to>skate to make a large contribution. Twenty-one of the ordinal completed the full 24 honrs |o date $2,815.50 has been tufted in to the M-D fund with mijch more yet to come. Congratulations to all who participated. •ATTENTION DRIVERS I$ow that school is back in sej&ion please drivers watch ou£for the kids getting on and off*the school buses. They're oi(B most precious commodity anfl cannot be replaced. ?Jou can't possibly be too late b^Avaiting for the buses to get ttojse kids loaded and unloaded, how late you might be for Tfyikl an appointment if you whipped your car out around a bus and struck a child. It could delay you a long time. Think and be courteous, but, most of all be patient and careful. VACATIONS ABOUND On Aug. 29 yours truly and husband. Bud, son, Rusty, and dog Candy, wenfcon a jaunt up to Michigan my V< r's home. Bud was kept b; sv h in additional porch on •'»c in of the home of my s cr ana brother-in-law and w»- girls went shopping and drank a lot of coffee. Later on Sunday afternoon we were greeted by my daughter, Cherie, and her family. Everyone had an enjoyable visit and change of pace and scenery ISLAND VACATION Young Mark Foss was taken to Grandma Foss' house and his brother, Troy, was taken to Madison, Wis., to stay with Staff Sgt. and Mrs. Robert Foss while their parents, Mr and Mrs. Richard Foss, were island hopping so to speak Rick and Hedie left for the Hawaiian Islands on Aug. 9. Their first stop was on the island of Oahu, where they visited friends, Mr. and Mrs. Keith Belnap. While there they went on a catamaran dinner cruise, they went to Sea Life Park, and to Pearl Harbor. Rick also went body surfing and enjoyed all the sunshine and water. Rick and Hedie left there on the fifteenth, for a tour of the island of Kauai, followed by a trip and tour of the island of Maui. They had a room that overlooked the cliff where diving ceremonies are held. I was told it is a beautiful sight to see. The day of the seventeenth was spent on Lahaima - visiting quaint shops and seeing historical sights and the whaling ports. The day after, they were off to the island of Hawaii, where they stayed on Kona. The nineteenth found them driving across the island, stopping to see the craters and lava beds. Sightseeing on Hilo was next on the agenda, after which the Fosses packed all their belongings to take the air flight to San Francisco. While there, they spent time with a long time friend, Ben Bos. The threesome went on to Chico where they stayed until the twenty-fourth. They then departed for home and family. Son Troy filled Mom and Dad in on his Wisconsin vacation and little Mark didn't have too much to say about anything« because he isn't quite old enough to know what a vacation really is - right Mom and Dad? SECOND VACATION Most of us are lucky to get one good vacation in a year. The Mtimmas have been fortunate enough to have a second vacation within two months of their first vacation. It started on Aug. 23, when Dick came home from work. The car was packed, the kids were fed and bathed All things were ready to roll. All that remained was for Dick to eat and shower and the family would be off for 11 days of relaxation and visiting old friends and relatives They were off for a visit to Duncannon and Harrisburg, Pa Nobody knew of Dick and Cherie's trip back there except Dick's brother and sister-in- law, Gary and Deb Mumma. After 18 hours of driving, they arrived in Duncannon at the home of Gary and Debby, being greeted by open arms and tears of happiness, and squeals of joy. If seeing this group from afar, no one would have known it's only been 14 months since Dick and Cherie moved away from there. Oh well, happiness is seeing someone you love! After giving the kids some lunch, the two families got ready for a wekend trip to Seven Stars. They stayed at the cabin of Dick and Gary's g r a n d p a r e n t s . T h e grandparents came about an hour later to be totally surprised by Dick, Cherie and boys. Their arrival was pre­ planned by Debby in order to make sure Dick and Cherie were in from McHenry. The next few days were spent relaxing and getting caught up on all the latest family news. A couple of the evenings were spent dropping in on unsuspecting relatives and laughing at the utter surprised expressions on faces with mouths hanging open and stuttering With each visit, plans were made to have dinner, usually on the following night A lot of invitations had to be turned down because there just was not enough time. The main foursome did manage to get in one evening without any kids, when Deb's mom graciously volunteered to babysit for the five little ones. Deb and Gary and Dick and Cherie went out to a very fine restaurant to enjoy a dinner of filet mignon and all the trimmings including a bottle of wine Cherie says there is nothing better than a filet mignon that absolutely melts in your mouth. Yum! Yum! One bright an sunny Thursday, the families went to Little Buffalo State park where they enjoyed swimming in a huge pool, eating lunch on the canteen patio and later going on a set of four pedal boats on the lake The kids really got a charge out of pedaling them. After that it was back in the pool to cool off It was later that evening that the Moms and Dads were able to go out for dinner. *U)n Friday, plans were in the making for a surprise birthday party for Dick and Brian-Deb and Gary's year old son. Without knowing what he was doing, Dick helped set things up for the party. Deb and Cherie passed it off as a party for Brian to be on Saturday. Little did he know what was happening behind his back. Gary took his brother shopping for a handle for a pitch fork while the girls put the finishing touches on things. Dick said he had no idea what was going on until he and Gary walked in and everyone started singing "Happy Birthday". Those in attendance were "Dutch" and Ann Zeiders, Deb's folks, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Mumma, better known as Gram and Pap. Pete and Grace Zeiders, Dick's uncle and aunt, and of course Deb, Gary and their two little ones, Brian and Kelly, and Cherie, Steve, Chris and Scott. Later in the evening after all thank yous and hugs and squeezes were exchanged, Dick and Cherie and boys got ready to start their trek homeward. It turned out to be a very tearful goodbye because Deb and Cherie turned on the waterworks. I know what that is from experience when Cherie lived in Pennsylvania, and we would visit her. When the Mummas reached Ohio and Indiana state lines, they swung north and headed for Michigan for a few days visit with Cherie's aunt and uncle and cousins. Labor Day found the tired but relaxed Mummas on their way home. The memories will be fresh in their minds for some time to come. Dick is back at work and Steve and Chris are in school and Scotty is home helping Mom keep up on the housework. Nothing like going on vacation and coming back to the routine of everyday living. RELAXATION IS Going on vacation. Ruth Kronke and daughter, Dorothy Ann Cunningham took off for a weekend in St Louis and Six Flags, Mo., on Aug. 22. Also on the trip were Dorothy's children, Cindy, Billy, Patty, Mary, Wendy and her friend, Jack The group stayed with Margaret and Jay Evans and their children, Debbie, Gary and Lisa. While there the whole bunch spent one full day at Six Flags, Mo. Saturday was spent at Margaret's house chit­ chatting and relaxing. They arrived home around 6:30 Sunday evening. WEDDING BELLS Rang out on Aug. 31 for the joining of Eddie Kronke and Annette DeLidro in marriage at Zion Lutheran church. Later a reception was attended by approximately 125 friends and relatives at the Moose Lodge. Congratulations and good luck to both of you. Many years of happiness.

Highwood could not come up with enough players. There was however, a heavyweight and a lightweight game on Sunday during the day against Winnetka, which was won by the heavyweights and lost by the lightweights. Phil Thorne said it looks like a good season for the McHenry Hornets. Coach Thorne is the head coach over the McHenry Hornets. Coach Don Clewis informed me that on Sunday morning, Sept. 8 there will be more games coming up behind West Campus with Round Lake. The Pee Wee's will play at 10 a.m. and that is the game the Eastwood Manor residents are most involved in. Until next week good luck Coach Clewis and the McHenry Hornets!!!

Many more happy birthdays to you Michael. HOME FROM HOSPITAL Mrs. Dorothy Wright of Fairview Lane should be home from Lake Forest hospital within a week. Mrs. Wright's family is anxiously waiting for her return. Our best wishes for a speedy recovery are with you, Mrs. Wright. FREE LIBRARY During the week I received a phone call from the librarian, Margaret Karas, of McHenry Nunda Library district. Mrs. Karas wanted me to tell my readers that the library will be starting its winter hours now and instead of opening at 1 on Tuesday, Friday and Saturday, and Thursday, the library will open at 2 p.m. On Tuesday, Friday, and Saturday the library closes at the same time which is 6 and on Thursday it is open until 8. Don't forget to stop by the library on Lily Lake Road, one mile south of 120, you'll be glad you did. You can get your library cards for your school children or yourself there. STRESS SAFETY FIRST After many telephone conversations I feel it necessary to repeat one of my recent articles on safety first. In regard to children playing in streets, especially the small children. Parents in general please tell your children to stay off the streets, that they are for traffic and are dangerous to play in, especially for the extremely young children. Vehicles not from our area, but passing through for one reason or the other are not used to this in many cases and aren't always as prepared as they should be on the road. Don't forget not to take any unnecessary chances, as one gentleman saijd we all have enough room on our own lots for children to play. Please stress this message to your little ones, it's up to us - we have to show them the way!! The right way that is!! MUELLERS VACATION Mr and Mrs Mueller and their 5 year old son H O. of Manor Lane recently returned from their vacation in the Wisconsin Dells They spent their vacation camping and cooking out which the three of them really enjoyed The Muellers camped at Jellystone Park Mr Mueller said that Fort Dells is only 150 miles away 385-5705 from Eastwood Manor, approximately a three hour drive to such a fun place for children and adults as well. The Dells have a Story Book Garden, where the Old Womaft and the Shoe, Cinderella, Jack and the Bean Stalk, etc., are on display. They have a train which goes through the park and is robbed by Jesse James. Black Bart hides in the woods and shoots blank shots at the visitors, the Muellers at one time got shot by Black Bart. There is also a swimming pool which the Muellers enjoyed often. There were Yoggie Bear cartoons each day with Yoggie throwing candy to the children in the theatre. It was only 4-5 miles to town. There was also duck rides and a water show to take in. I'm really glad the Muellers had such a nice time and that by sharing it with Eastwood Manor residents, made it just that much nicer. LABOR DAY COOKOUT * Monday, Sept. 3, the Walshes and Bellaks were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Ron Melone of Fairview Lane for a really nice cookout. The weather could have been better, but regardless a good time was had by all. Towards the end of the day we all played a few games of volleyball. Ron Melone's mom also attended the cookout along with Terri Melone's parents. The cookout made Labor Day a little extra special for all of us. Anyone wishing to contribute what they did over the Labor Day weekend just give me a call. SOFTBALL Tonight, Sept. 3, Jerry Bellak's softball team from Jerry Phillip's 66 and Car Coin Wash Center, will play Mr. K's in a 16" softball game behind the Admiral in town. A good time is anticipated by all for at the end of the game both teams will head over to Mr. K's. BONUS GIFT POINTS Anyone wishing to contribute their Bonus Gift Points (which are on various products) to the Montini School general fund can turn them in right at the school at 1405 North Richmond. Mrs. Urban Gerrits gave me this useful information just this morning. Many of us just throw them away when they could be put to very good use, please take the time to help out the Montini school system. K1WANIS WONDER LAKE CLUB At a recent meeting, Mrs. Gordon Gran and Mrs. Robert Karlson gave the final report on the 1974 swim program. The program, sponsored by the Woman's Club of Wonder Lake and the Wonder Lake Kiwanis, completed another successful year. A total of 205 area youths registered for lessons. Sponsors were fortunate in securing five beaches, including Sunrise Ridge, Highland Shores, Wonder Woods, Wonder Center and Indian Ridge. The very capable instructors included Mary Mathews, Kathy Lavin, Candy Freund and Cheryl Hume. The life-saving classes were instructed by Adele Marshall. Some of her classes had as many as 22 swimmers. Each instructor had beach helpers and a beach mother to assist her daily. There were no accidnts or mishaps at any of the beaches, though sponsors were prepared for everything. There was full insurance coverage on all participants, beaches, etc. The weather cooperated for the most part. Only one day was cancelled by rain. Bob Rowley gave out assignments for Kiwanis Peanut day, Sept. 27. This is the only program of Wonder Lake Kiwanis in which business participation is asked to help underwrite the cost of peanuts. This year peanuts will be shelled and salted. Each member will make merchant contacts.
