As part of the holiday weekend, the Wonder Lake Ski club will be putting on a show at the Sunrise Ridge beach on Sunday, Sept. 2, at 2 p.m. Their shows are so professional and .well put together that everyone can enjoy them. The skiing is terrific;- but even the music, announcing, and .the choreography just make it a must to see. Aug. 25, they put on a show at the Wonder Woods beach which was more elaborate than their pre-fireworks show. They try to add acts and change them around so that the audience will see a new show each time they perform. They had a back barefoot act, three men barefooting and doing tumble turns, trick jumping, competitive jumping, three men crossing over and under while skiing, a nine girl flag salute, ballet routines, a pom-pom routine, and just a list of other interesting events bringing it to twenty different acts. They finished the show with a ten person pyramid which was beautiful to see. If you've missed the other shows, mark this date on your calendar and be ready for a pleasant viewing experience. I'm sure you will plan on at tending if you have already seen one because you know how enjoyable they are, and that you will be in for another dif ferent show. Seeing the show from a boat is fun, but on the beach is even better because you are told the background information for each of the acts $nd can enjoy i4he clown routines more thoroughly. Sunrise Ridge has la big beach, so there will be plenty of room for everyone. CANDLE-LIGHT BOWL The ladies of the Company I auxiliary of the fire department have been busy lately making plans for a Candle-light bowl planned for Opt. 27. Along with a night of bowling, to be enjoyed a buffet will be served, and many prizes will be awarded. Tickets are available by calling either Mrs. Ralph (Pat) Diederich, or Tracy Stolle at 728-0613. LADIES SODALITY A cookout at the home of Roberta Dicker was the kickoff for the 1979-80 year for the Ladies Sodality. The new officers, vice- president, Ann Schiupolsky, and secretary, Lynn Bauer were installed. Filling out terms of office as president is Barb Hayes, and treasurer, Judy Lermer. One of the events that the Sodality will be involved in this year is the annual Halloween party for all children of the Wonder Lake area. They will be again sponsoring "Breakfast with Santa" early in December and a holiday bazaar and bake sale in November. The sodality also will provide coffee and donuts in the church hall after the 40 a.m. Mass every Sunday, starting after Labor Day. The' next Sodality meeting will be Oct. 11, beginning at 8 p.m. in the church hall. The program for the evening will be presented by a local florist showing holiday floral arrangements. All women of the parish are automatically members of the Sodality, but in order to be an active member, dues should be sent to Mrs. Kevin Bauer, 4803 Barnard Mill road, Ringwood. SPECIAL DAYS Joe Sullivan, Jr., of St. Francis Heights will be celebrating his sixteenth bir thday on Aug. 30. Joe is the avid sailor in our family who has done so well in the races this summer. Hope your birthday is as happy as your sailing ex- periences have been. Happy birthday on Sept. 1, to my special friend, Sara Hearity, of Wonder Center. SKI CLUB TRYOUTS The Ski Club will be having tryouts on Monday, Sept. 3, at 1 p.m. to obtain new members for the 1980 season. Anyone who has good skiing abilities and would be willing to work in all the club activities, may come that day to the Muss Hanson home, 5229 E. Lake Shore drive, and give it a try. There is no longer an age limit, but you must be a resident of Wonder Lake, either summer or year around. (By Father William C. Hanner, rector emeritus of Holy Comforter church, Episcopal, Kenil worth, a former McHenry resident now living in Florida) Florida, like the rest of the country, does less driving these days. We use tried and true methods such as lots less driving for pleasure, shopping close to home, taking someone with you so you go in groups whenever possible. If we dine out we don't go to the far away places. We select a place close to home. Hie result, in my own case is, that where I used to drive 15,000 to 20,000 miles a year-going long ways on vacation-this last year I drove 7,400 miles. If we want to get away for a few days we try to stay in the State; so this year when we planned our big vacation, we planned to go to Virginia, in the mountains near the west Virginia state line. We have come here before. We drove 1,056 miles from St. Petersburg to Virginia, which was only a start in other years. We were careful for 12 months so we could splurge a little in summer. There are fewer cars in Florida this year-it has hurt the summer tourist business but it has been good for saving fuel and cutting the gas guz zlers down a bit. We left St. Pete's on Aug. 17 and stopped the night in Brunswick, Ga. We had dinner in a seafood place near the huge live oak under which Sidney Lanier sat when he wrote The Marshes of Glynn'. As we dined, we could look out over those same marshes, for time has not altered them much and no buildings have been built. Only around the edges have roads and power lines forced their unwelcome way. For acres and acres, the marshes extend-ever intermittent, the gleam or sparkle of water tells of a winding stream or space of open water. In the olden days vast flights of birds-made this their home-this marshy REMINDER Don't forget that the calendar listing events for our com munity goes into effect Sept. 1.

Here came supplies for trapper and farmer alike. The big plantations were yet to come. The money crop in the early days was not cotton, as later, but indigo. They don't allow you to forget that fact while you are in the area? The next day we left early in the morning on a drive that was to take us through the rest of Georgia, past Savannah and into Charleston, S.C., about which I wrote when we visited Bishop Thayer, there in 1974. We were quite sure we knew the town from our former visit-but alas!, buildings had been torn down and moved while others were being rebuilt so that the town made no sense to us at all. After awhile, we got located and had a meal at a restaurant we remembered. From here we called the Rev. Allan Smith, O.H.C., a Monk of the Order of the Holy Cross, an order of Episcopal monks who do a great work. Father Smith was with me in Miami as a curate in St. Stephan's parish, he had visited at Holy Comforter in Kenilworth, 111., and now was at Our Saviour's Priory near St. Stephans, S.C., a small town. between them, difficult for the layman to fathom. The Priory was established in an old plantation area of South Carolina. Father Smith told me that at one time prior to the Civil War, 1,800 slaves were employed in that area. The great original product was indigo but later, of course, the other products of the South were grown. The original plantation house is gone, but a beautiful home, built in 1936, houses the chapel, guests, food service and some of the monk's recreational facilities. Each monk has an individual small cell, or wee cottage, on the spacious grounds for his j. bedroom, work space and necessary conveniences. The whole endeavor is now in the process of establishing its real value to the Order and to the church it serves. The good father took us to the road we should follow next morning-thus saving us some miles and we left him with as large a check as we could. It is just as expensive for the A reminder to prospective parents comes today from Mrs. Fran Scholpp, R.N., obstetrical3 department supervisor at Memorial Hospital for McHenry County at Woodstock.

The informational program will be held in the hospital dining room on both Sept. 10 and 17 as a free com munity service program of Memorial hospital.
