Lakemoor-Lilymoor Margaret Kara^ 385-4934 Industriai Park Victimized O Hen In Recent Months Fritzsche Industrial Park has been victimized within the past three months by four burglaries and two attempted breakins. Bill Fritzsche is offering a substantial reward to anyone with information which leads to the arrest and con viction of the burglars. With theft becoming so rampant, it is necessary for each of us to be more aware and watchful, and to report to authorities when activities look suspicious. Many of us have already been victimized. Cases of vandalism have also been reported, such as the slashing of tires. This is probably the work of younger persons, who cannot find helpful ways of getting their jollies. Parents can be of help by making certain their youngsters keep curfew hours. There really isn't much to do after midnight, but get into trouble. A reward awaits the person who knows of the guilty ones in the Fritzsche Industrial Park burglaries. Any takers? SAVE THE LAKE The Lily Lake Conservation Club, Inc., held its first annual election of officers and board members, Feb. 14. Bruno Karas, founder, continues as president; parliamentarian Charles Nettles, vice- president; George Kawell, treasurer; Maggie Dunnagan, secretary. Board members are Jerry Weber, Paul Starzyk, Dale Rasmussen, Joe DeMarco and Robert Hurley. Technical advisers are George Garbacz and Bill Fritzsche, with Roger Barker, committeeman\ Mike Nejedly reported on the Valentine dinner-dance, which we enjoyed at the Moose lodge. The leftovers went to the senior citizens group, so everyone benefited. Billie Nejedly and Mike were celebrating their anniversary the night of the meeting. The volunteer workers are getting the pipes to be used in the dredging process on the lake while it is still frozen. Any person willing to work in the cold and snow, for the revitalization of Lily Lake, call Bill at 385-4934. Snowmobiles would also be of use in hauling the pipes. Robert Hurley will have his Trailblazer parked by the dredge so workers can have a cup of coffee and sandwich. See you Saturday! YOUTH HONORS John and Michael Kmetz, members of Pack 351, the scouting group from St. Pat's, both received a first place trophy in the recent "Pinewood Derby". John's is for "Best Looking" in the third grade level and Mike's for "Best Looking" in the ten year Webelos group. Mike also won this category in last year's contest. Boys in scouting are given a block of wood, wheels and nails, and they then whittle, put together and paint their "cars". Mike and John may not have the fastest,'but their parents can be proud of theirs being the "Best Looking". Cari Kawell was in a gym nastics competition on Feb. 11 in Algonquin. In the novice class, ages 9 to 11, with eighteen entries, Cari won a seventh place. Gymnastic classes now take up three evenings a week, so George and Diane are really kept busy just traveling. It's very exciting to see the results of training and discipline. Keep up the good work, Cari. GOOD NUMBER Norman and Pat Morrison ' spent a quiet evening toasting each other with a glass of wine a few years ago on their 25th wedding anniversary. Their three children decided that their parents' 33rd anniversary should be the one to celebrate. This will be done with another evening at the Morrison home, but it won't be a quiet one. Music will be supplied by their son and Sundae's friend, both talented guitarists. Family, food and fun will make this 33rd anniversary on Feb. 23, truly one to remember. VILLAGE NEWS At the monthly meeting, Mrs. Donna Hall and Mrs. Kathleen Kelley were appointed to the zoning board of appeals, and Les Nejedly to the planning commission board. Charles Schmidt has been hired by the board members as superin tendent of public works. Vehicle stickers, which all Lakemoor residents must dispay on their cars, may be purchased any Monday evening at the municipal hall from 6 to 9 p.m. Pat Morrison, village clerk, 385-1117, will make other arrangements for those per sons not able to get to the hall on Mondays.

Lakemoor is planning a weekend celebration when the sewer system is completed and working. The Lily Lake Con servation club and local business men will be joining in the festivities. Sewers may not be very exciting, but they are one of the basics of life. GET WELLS Mrs. Tom Wiles has been in the hospital in Woodstock these past weeks. Tom, our mail deliverer par-excellence, has been with her as much as possible. Karen Robison has taken Tom's route and has also been doing a splendid job fighting icy streets and snow bound mail boxes., Prayers are with the Wiles family. Frank Coburn is feeling much better. Dolores says he's started back to work which makes them both happy. Cari Kawell is over the chicken pox, which didn't seem to bother her at all. NEWS, GOOD AND OTHERWISE Anita Kunz is almost com pletely recovered from her surgery in Janaury. Albert took her into the emergency room at McHenrv hospital with severe pains. The condition was diagnosed and surgery scheduled for the following Monday. But Anita was in such pain, that her gall bladder was removed four days sooner. She is now back at her job of sewing protective clothing for persons working with radiation. Albert, Anita and children Michael and Heidi, enjoyed a Florida trip during the holidays. They visited the children's great-grandmother, who had never seen Heidi, in St. Augustine. Everyone enjoyed the visit, the sights, with Michael particularly im pressed with the alligator farm. Valentines were received by the children from Edye and Joe Fitts, formerly of the Bungalow. They are grand parents again as of Jan. 28, but there seemed to be a problem at the time. Hope all is well now With parents Judy and Bud and the baby. CELEBRATIONS Polly Withrow has her bir thday on Feb. 21. The twenty- second is a popular day being shared by George Garbacz, technical adviser with the L.L.C.C.I., Sophie Patterson and Nancy Hueckstaedt. Connie Meyer and Pacita Morrison, Lakemoor village clerk, have their day the twenty-fourth. Dear Alyce Kowal friend of servicemen at the Veteran's hospital for many years, Nancy Eggert and Gary Yerkes have their day in common on the twenty-seventh. And old George Washington isn't sure whether his birthday is over as of the nineteenth or looked forward to on the twenty-second. Anniversary wishes for happiness, etc., go to Harold and Marcella Foss on the twenty-second, and Pat and Norman Morrison on the twenty-third. Did you know that this week is "Kraut and Frankfurter Week"? Now there is really a reason to celebrate. , - ENVY TIME To be where the temperature never goes below 72 and where the average is 81 degrees, sounds like a bit of heaven. Peggy and Bill Hendrickson of the Bungalow, spent two weeks in St. Maarten, Netherlands Antilles, West Indies, enjoying the sun, white capped waters, palm trees and sea-grapes. One of the highlights of their trip was a visit to Saba island, a mountain top rock, with the villages clustered in any valiey available. It took twenty years to build an eleven mile road, which is now used by about 200 vehicles. Bicycles are not used, as the terrain is much too hilly. Every 300 feet of the 3,000 foot rock, finds a change of one degree in.temperature, plus a change in vegetation. Bill and Peggy were delighted to come back here to all this white (or grey) country, and again breathe in the exhilarating cold air. Who needs palm trees, swimming in the Atlantic, sunbathing and all that warm weather? We do! Life has loveliness to give. Just help yourself. GOD BLESS SCOUT NEWS I PACK 351 The scouts of Cub Pack 351 enjoyed a fun filled afternoon of swimming Sunday, Feb. 11, at the West campus pool. After all this exercise, big appetites were satisfied at a local restaurant. The boys and their families all agree that scouting is indeed a pack of fun!
