SECTION 2 - PAGE S • PLAINDEALER HER ALP, FR1P A V. DECEMBI Neighborhood news # mmmm Lakemoor/Lilymoor: Jaycees sell Christmas trees for winter fun The hours when members of the Lakemoor J.C.'s will be on hand to sell Christmas trees at the Lakemoor Village Hall parking lot are: week nights, from 5 to 9; and Saturday and Sunday, from 10 to 6 p.m., per Donna Schaefer. Bill Garbacz, one of the J.C.'s, reminds us that there is free delivery in Lakemoor and that hard candy will also be sold. The money made will go towards a winter carnival to be sponsored by the J.C.'s, which will give us all something to look forward to in the cold winter days ahead. EVIDENCE OF TRAPS Diedre Kent of Lilymoor called to say that her cat, Again this year, as in the past, members of the congregation of the Ringwood United Methodist Church are asked to remember the folks at Pioneer center, by bringing mittens and hanging them on the Christmas tree in the church. They will be taken to the center to help the residents keep their fingers warm with our love of giving. Please add a ir of mittens to your shopping Katy Christopher 385-8037 Doris Low 653-9262 SCHOOL PROJECT The spirit of Christmas in­ volves sharing and giving. During the holiday season the Junior American Citizens at Ringwood School will be sharing by donating to the restoration fund for the Statue of Liberty, rather than exchanging gifts or having a grab bag at their Christmas party, Friday, Dec. 21. On Dec. 5, the school prin­ cipal, Kim Perkins, presented an all school assembly which started the campaign. He ex­ plained the origin of the great lady, her location and the damage that has occurred over the years. All Americans are aiding in this beautification project. So that the children could grasp the size of this monument, lines of tape were placed on the hallway floor marking, the 42- foot extended arm, the 21-foot torch and 8-foot finger. Large replicas of the lady's eye, mouth, nose and fingernail were displayed. Each J AC member was given a post card of the statue, an informational activity packet of excercises pertaining to the restoration and a Lady Liberty eraser. This is the second year that the school has aided the renovation project. During the 1983 holiday season, the children were able to send $207. Lee Iacocca, national restoration chairman, acknowledged their gift with an official certificate which is on display in the school office. If anyone in the community wishes to join the Junior American Citizens with their Christmas gift, donations may be left at the Ringwood School Learning Center. BIRTHDAYS A birthday gathering was held Sunday, Dec. 9, at the home of Patti Miller for four members of the Low clan who celebrate their birthdays in December.

Evidently it had been released, for which the Kents are thank­ ful. Margaret Karas 385-4934 A Lakemoor resident found evidence of traps on her lakeside property, which is of great concern because of their pet dog. There must be a way to stop this method of catching wild animals, as too many tame pets are being hurt. * LAKEMOOR NEWS Ed Godt has taken out a petition for the office of trustee.

Krista often takes walks in her neigh­ borhood, and is usually armed with a liarge plastic bag which she fills up with other people's refuse.

PARKLAND HONORS Grant Delp of Lakemoor, made the eighth-grade honor role at Parkland. Seventh graders from our area include Ron Bonesz, Brian Blake, Juan Carrion, Shawna Marshall, Heather O'Neill and Ron Robinette. All but one of these youngsters use materials from the McHenry Nunda Library. Is there a correlation between reading and good scholarship?
