Ten key executives of major employers throughout the county are leading the effort to enlist the support of the county's 100 largest employers in the United Way campaign. Major employers are being asked to afford their employees an op­ portunity to support United Way by contributing at work. The ten leaders currently h o s t i n g p r e - c a m p a i g n meetings with fellow business- and community leaders include Mayor Frances Kuhn, City of W o o d s t o c k ; W i l l i a m Baldauf, Frank Greenwald, William Douglass, Clifford Maddox, Frank Perna, Daniel Schmidt, Edward Wernicke, Jajnes J. Brown, and Lorrin Woodman. Brown simultaneously announced several ad­ ditional key leadership appointments to the 1981 campaign team. Wille Hanke, will serve as chairman of the restaurants and taverns division. He will work with a committee comprised of Glenn Camp­ bell, Hebron, Johnny Bleu, Fox River Grove, and Dick Sittar, Algonquin. Ken Kunzer, Youth Ser­ vice Bureau, and Rick Bernatos, School District 47, are heading the educational institutions campaign. Norbert Coonen, Wood­ stock, the Girl Scouts' representative on the United Way board of directors, is serving as campaign coordinator, assisting Brown in managing the campaign organization. Merle Johnsen, Crystal Lake, will manage cam­ paign relations with out-of- county employers sup­ p o r t i n g U n i t e d W a y o f McHenry county.

Ralph Smith, United Methodist church of McHenry, and the Rev. Leo Ambre, St. Mary's church of Huntley, will coordinate the United Way campaign amongst the county's clergymen. Brown indicated that he and Coonen are still busy arranging appointments to r e m a i n i n g c a m p a i g n leadership posts, and that all positions will be filled and functioning effectively when the 1981 campaign officially begins Oct. 1. In discussing . the im­ portance of volunteers, Brown pointed out that volunteer input is the secret behind United Way's suc­ cessful annual campaigns and the key to United Way's operating efficiency.
