NATURE NOTES Those tulips, jonquils, daffodils and peonies that thought spring was here and pushed green leaves out of the ground to reach the sun, were covered with the white snow and endures freezing weather. But no harm is done yet, as the leaves are formed in the early winter and can withstand cold weather. Fruit trees and more delicate plants may have some frost damage. There is very little protec­ tion that can be given to trees, but roses and smaller plants can be covered when a heavy frost is ex­ pected. TV INTERVIEW Seen on Cable TV last Monday was a local news segment put on by the McHenry Area Chamber of Comm­ erce, hosted by Fran Olsen.Two gu ests were present, Suzanne Deidnch of McHenry who will soon receive her degree in gemology, and myself, representing the McHenry Nunda Public Library District. The ex­ citement and tremor of being on camera was almost forgotten in the conversational setting of a taping room. There was no rehearsal so the talk just flowed. Only in retrospect did I realize that much of the information about the new library building had been left unsaid. Sorry about that. Guess I'm not ready for Johnny Carson yet.

O r ca l l kimi 221-.VWH' r reservation^ by Kurt Begalka SHAW MEDIA NEWS SERVICE In January, the Richmond Park commission conducted a recreational survey to gather data for future recreational planning and programing. The results are in and William Rudolph, president of the Park commission, is pleased with the 42- percent response rate. Of about 400 households in Richmond, 378 received surveys and 162 were returned. Residents believe present park facilities are inadequate, although a clear majority are against creating another park. Richmond Community park, located on Nippersink drive, was donated by Arnold N. May about 30 years ago. It consists of six acres and has one Little League baseball diamond, shelter, swingset and a dozen picnic tables. Rudolph would like to expand the facility, but is strapped by an annual hudpet of $500. While there is no plan to establish a park tax now, of the 114 people who addressed the question on the survey, 74 said they'd suppport a referendum to establish a special recreation tax. According to Village Clerk Kathleen Hellmann, there are numerous taxes that could be instituted to support the park. Among these are a playground and recreation tax--9 cents per $100 of assessed valuation--and a recreation and community center tax--7 cents per $100 assessed valution. Ms. Hellmann said the board is not considering additional taxes at this time, and such a tax would require a referendum. In addition, only a park district could levy these taxes, said Kathy Schultz, chief deputy county clerk. The only other option would be for the village itself to establish a park fund. Ms. Schultz added. The maximum levy would be about 7 cents per $100 of assessed valuation and it would not require a referendum, she said. Rudolph remains optimistic the commission will receive the funds somehow, and he has big plans for it. He wants to institute a regular maintenance schedule and increase cooperation with the school district. Down the line, he'd like to see an expanded summer program with leagues and perhaps another park on the north side of town. The Nippersink creek corridor and railroad line - if and when the rails are torn up -- remain options. McHenry Schools Host "Mark Twain^ Valley View and Edgebrook school students will see "Mark Twain Today" at their schools Friday, March 25.
