/ Sunnyside Betty Messer 344 2494 Competes For Scholarship Dave Da vies of 1507 Lakeview, son of Lynn Da vies, will be competing for a scholarship to Greer Tech. Dave is the only one chosen from the Johnsburg high and will be testing with some 80 other students from northern and mid-state Illinois. The scholarship is $5,360 and only one will be awarded. It is a total scholarship. Dave is a senior at the Johnsburg high and we wish him the best of luck in the testing which is scheduled for sometime in early May. VILLAGE MEETING The village held its second meeting of the month Tuesday, April 20, at the village hall. The Park committee is busy with plans for installing a slide ami merry-go-round at the park. The village is allowing the little league to install a backstop at the park for practice field. Dave Rogers presented the board with a sketch of the land­ scaping and parking area planned for the hall and his plans met with approval . Finance chairman, trustee William Sandell presented the appropriations and budget for the coming year to the board. Budget cuts were accepted and the board gave its approval for the budget for fiscal year 1962- 83. The budget cuts and levy should see lower taxes for Sunnyside, but he advised this will not affect the proposed raise in the state multiplier, which could bring taxes right back up. A meeting was held by the newly formed Johnsburg Library committee and villagers and residents of the Johnsburg school district were invited to attend. The library should be ready about August of this year. The next regularly scheduled meeting of the village will be Tuesday, May 4, at 8 p.m., at the village hall.

"When we throw anything away, we are throwing away part of the earth," according to a McHenry County Defenders spokesman, "since everything we touch, own, see and use is part of the earth. Each of us discards a ton of waste each year - in other words a ton of the earth." Recycling is one alter­ native to this procedure. At least 60 percent of the waste can be reused in some form. Recycling day for McHenry area residents is regularly held on the first and third Saturdays of each month, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. in the McHenry Market Place parking lot. The drive which will be held May 1 will be co-sponsored by the Pioneer Birth to Three prngram -- According to 'Cathy Maradeo, volunteer coor­ dinator for the fund drive, * the Birth to Three program's share of the proceeds will go to purchase toys, books, and other items to be used directly by the children and their parents. These children are all from McHenry county -- homes; as a result, every f _J penny they earn will stay J here in this area. For further information about how an organization can participate in these drives or details about recyclable materials, contact the Defenders representative at 385-8512. Daffodil Walk May 1-2 In Bull Valley there is one of the most unique and picturesque natural beauty spots in the midwest, Goldman's Jonquil Valley woods. Next Saturday and Sunday, May 1 and 2, Goldman's annual Daffodil Walk is available to Crystal Lake-McHenry & Woodstock residents and visitors. Often compared to Morton Arboretum, the Bull Valley garden spot is unique in the midwest, with its dozens of acres of woods, streams and 500,000 blossoms -- 110 varieties of jonquils, daf­ fodils and other varieties of narcissum The evolution of these plantings is part of the picturesque history of McHenry county. In 1947 David Joslyn, succesful attorney and civic leader of Woodstock, bought the Bull Valley property. As the years passed and Joslyn completed successful cases, he would travel the world collecting varieties of narcissum and trees, bring them back to Bull Valley for planting. Later he built a series of trout ponds by utilizing a few of the many f ree - f lowing sp r ings emina t ing f rom the property, then known as Joslyn Woods. In 1976, George and Judith Goldman acquired the property, (as well as Joslyn's log cabin, located at the property's highest point) and pledged to continue the once-a-year public opening. The walk begins about half­ way up (the south hill) of 'Valley Hill, between Bull Valley road & Mason Hill. There are signs pointing the way. Hiking shoes are a must, although much can be seen by sticking to the mam path and rationing energy. For hardier stock there is even a separate wild flower walk and an "endurance climb" down into a ponded glade. Although the taking of flowers is forbidden, taking pictures is not, and the walk is perfect for tranquility and scenery. This year permanent signs were all prepared by the Agrinauts 4-H club, led by Nancy Ellison of Woodstock. For those who have en­ joyed the walk, a donation to the Retinitis Pigmentosa foundation would be greatly appreciated. As a special tribute to their daughter, Nanci Soriano, the Gold- mans are dedicating this year's walk to the R. P. foundation in order that, th rough resea rch made possible by donations such as this, someday a cure may be found to benefit her and others so afflicted.
