PAflK III - PLAINDEALK •;R . UV.PNfcSDAY, MAY 27.1M1 Wonder Lake Anne Sowers 653-9549 Memorial Day Parade May 30 Robert Blatzheim, Commander of the American Legion Post 1169, is extending an invitation to any groups or individuals to participate in the annual Memorial day parade which will be held on the traditional observance of Memorial day, Saturday, May 30. The parade will be for­ ming at the old Co. 1 firehouse on Wonder Lake road and will begin at 10:30 a.m. heading south to Hancock drive and then west to the Triangle. A memorial ceremony will be held at the Triangle with members of the National Guard presenting the colors. You are asked to call the Legion Post at 653-9948 after 12 (noon) any day to confirm your position in the parade. This year, we will be commemorating forty years since the beginning of World War II in 1941, so the Legion is hoping to have a large turnout for the parade both as participants and viewers. On May 23. the members of the Legion visited all the cemeteries in our area, placing flags on the graves of any veterans. The Rifle Squad visited the cemeteries on May 25. OPENING CEREMONY Wonder Lake Boys baseball held the opening ceremony on Monday night. May 25. All the teams were there in uniform surroun­ ding the field as Dr. Jones and Jay Cristy threw in the first balls to the teams who were playing that night. Dr. Jones, superintendent of Harrison school, has been a supporter of the league by allowing the minors to play at Harrison school and by being so cooperative with all the wishes of the officers. Jay Cristy was one of the earlier presidents of the league and did much to help the league grow to the point it is now with over 200 boys involved. The season began with the Angels taking on the Yankees and the Indians against the White Sox. SPECIAL DAYS Happy birthday to one of the Tigers, Rich Sullivan, who will blow out twelve candles on his birthday cake. May 27. Sherman Spencer will be blowing out a few more candles than that on May 27. when he celebrates his special day! Happy birthday on May 29 to Bar Rizzo, who is the flower lady of Wonder Woods! It is a joy to live next door and be able to see all the varieties she has around her yard. JAYCEE NEWS The Wonder Lake Jaycees are still in the midst of their membership drive hoping to recruit at least ten new ( members. They meet on the second Thursday of the month, 8 p.m., at Dusty's Pizza. The next meeting will be June 11. They have many events that will be coming up such as a CPR course and a blood drive. . The Fourth of July will be a fun one for all Wonder Lake because the Jaycees are planning the Miss Wonder Lake contest foi1 that day at the old firehouse building on Wonder Lake road beginning at 1:30 p.m. and then a street dance in the evening.

WONDER LAKE GARDEN CLUB April's meeting was held at Mrs. Matyll Banky's home with committee reports the agenda for the Pop! I ! ' / / / < evening and plans for­ mulated for the succeeding months. May 2, Mrs. Doris Lockerbie called for a work meeting which was held at "Ostend Acres" to package candy tray favors for Valley Hi residents for Mother's day. This is a project that has been a favorite of the Garden Club for over thirty years and is still going strong, through the cooperative effort of all - "the gift is in the giving." May 14 was our regularly scheduled meeting at Betty Alderson's home "Ostend Acres", with installation of officers, Mrs. Marge Dugan, first vice-president; Mrs. Doris Lockerbie, second vice-president; Mrs. Junice Unverzagt, corresponding secretary; and Mrs. Ruth Kinzie, treasurer ~ lovely corsages were presented to each with our best wishes. Greg Alderson was our guest speaker for the evening. Mr. Alderson gra­ duated from McHenry County college in 1979 with an Associates of Arts degree and received his Bachelorof Science degree in Art Education from Northern Illinois university. He showed his drawings in graphite, pencil and colored pencil -- showed sculpture in various kinds of woods, tools used and effect achieved. Being his number one fan and mother, I remain very prejudiced and proud and found his program in­ formative and interesting - hope our members did too! Thursday, June 11, is our next Garden Club meeting at 8 p.m. in the home of Mrs. Vi Kopp, 4323 E. Lake Shore drive, Wonder Lake. Again, anyone interested in gardening is most cor­ dially invited to attend. Mrs. B.
