The chairman of this committee is Richard Panerali, the members are Martin Koleno and Donna Tobeck, both also members of the Board of Trustees, and citizen member Fred Heald. A decision was made at the meeting to ask for volun­ teers to get together some Saturday in the near future, for half a day, in order to do something about the potholes in the roads. People interested in helping should please call Fred Heald at 385-9645. EXPLANATION Due to the many graduation pictures in the June 3 issue of the Plain- dealer. the McHenry Shores column, even though it was turned in on time, was one of several taken out and put into the Friday edition. Fortunately, the im­ portant news from the Board meeting had already been published a week earlier on the front page of the paper, therefore, the delay was not critical. However, I do apologize for any errors that were due to that unexpected change. FIRST COMMUNION Eight-year-old Karen Barbara Klein School of Dance SUMMER CLASSES NOW FORMING!

Pleasant Valley Outdoor Center again zeroes in on environmental education. A member of the United Way of McHenry County, Pleasant Valley is a year- round environmental center. "Being concerned with the environment is not just a new thing with us", said Jim "Buzz" Hargleroad, director of the center. "Long before it was 'in' to be concerned with the environment, Pleasant Valley actively practiced conservation through reforestation, water control, compost gardening, game protection, recycling, soil conservation and solar heating. As the new director of Pleasant Valley, I urge interested individuals to come and visit our facilities." Hargleroad pointed out that pleasant Valley Outdoor center is 460 acres of nor­ thern Illinois woods, prairie. ponds, marshe* and far­ mland. including 52 buildings. It is located at 13315 Pleasant Valley roted, near the intersection of routes 47 and 176. Hargleroad added that few outdoor centers can offer the amount of space and outdoor variety that is available at Pleasant Valley, which has been serving the people of Northern Illinois for twenty- seven years. It is a camp with accommodations for 100 persons at Hilltop, the hub of Pleasant Valley activities. Many more can be served at other facilities, including ten camping in designated areas. Camping programs are directed by the Pleasant Valley staff. Or campers may prefer to do their own programming. Activities include hiking, swimming, gardening, limited farm care and self- sufficiency training in en­ vironmental study and preparing outdoor meals. Pleasant Valley is also a year-round conference center. It's new. un­ derground solar building is now available for group meetings and conferences and can accommodate up to 100 persons. "The United Way of McHenry county is especially happy to have Pleasant Valley as one of its members." said Irma Braun, president of the fund raising organization, "because it is an en­ vironmental education center. Over the years Pleasant Valley has been a favorite spot for school programs in environmental education. Concern for our natural resources and' the emergence of a national energy crisis have caused people from all walks of life, as well as United Way to reexamine their relation­ ships with the environment and with each other." Gardeners Protect Eyes While Working Here's advice for anyone who plans to join the ranks of those fighting increasing food prices by growing your own fruits and vegetables this summer. Before picking up that hoe-or any other gardening tool-amateur farmers should be aware of the numerous, potential eye safety hazards their hobby' can pose. According to the Illinois Optometric Association (IOA), eye injury i$ a major risk among home gardeners because most people are unaware of the dangers and fail to take proper safety precautions. Although the human eye is tough and has a certain degree of natural protection, good eye safety is essential to safe gardening, the IOA maintains. Gardeners should be especially careful that their eyes are adequately protected against the dust and dirt particles that can blow into the eyes when digging. Cutting grass or weeds, particularly with a power mower, also requires proper precautions because mowers or sickles can toss stones and rocks into the air- -or the eyes. The addition of safety eyewear during these Sr SUBARU r STATION WAG activities can provide a sight-saving shield between the eye and harmful, foreign objects. Other situations in which extra eye protection is necessary include working with other power equipment, such as cultivators or hand saws; spraying chemicals or applying dry fertilizers; pruning bushes and trees; cutting wood for fences or tomato stakes; chipping stone for an ornamental garden wall; working with wire to make a fence or tie up drooping plants; har­ vesting crops from thorny bushes, trees or com stalks. Moreover, IOA advisers note, eyes are also subject to irritation or injury while gardening in the sun or working in any dusty area. Prescription lenses alone are not enough, the IOA warns. While the U.S. Food and Drug Administration requires all eyeglass lenses prescribed since 1972 to be impact-resistant, lenses can break if subjected to emrifeh stress, a situation that could easily occur in the garden. Safety eyewear is available to fit over prescription lenses. If a lens prescription is not needed to improve vision, non- NOWYOUDONT HAVE TO WAIT FOR SOMETHING WORTH WAITING FOR.

"SINCE mr EUROPA MOTORS i I prescription safety eyewear can be purchased. Both clear and tinted lenses, plastic and treated glass, are available, all of greater impact resistance than the FDA requires. Doctors of optometry can provide a gardener's lens prescription for all impact- resistant and tinted lenses. To protect one'&eyes from the sun's harmful light, quality sunglasses are a must fpr the home gardener. An ^Optometrist can deter­ mine the tint and density best-suited to each in­ dividual's needs. A neutral gray tint is usually required since it does not distort color perception Finally, to get the most pleasure out of gardening, the IOA urges an annual vision checkup before buying that first package of seeds "Changes in vision are subtle and can often go unnoticed until an op­ tometrist spots them during a thorough examination." he said Remember safe and s u c c e s s f u l g a r d e n i n g depends on the condition of the eyes. Good vision is needed to read instructions on seed packaged fertilizer bags, and weed killers; for detecting weeds; and for spotting fungi or insects on plants. Most importantly, good vision is necessary to thoroughly enjoy the beauty of the flowers and plants raised.
