SECTION 2- PAGE t • PLAIN DEALER HERALD, FRIDAY. DECEMBER 21,1984 Neighborhood news Lakemoor/Lilymoor: Operation Snowball helps students , Operation Snowball is not a surgical procedure, nor is it a winter sport. And yet, it is both as it excises the distrust, the lack of worth, the us» of drugs and alcohol from the lives of young people, while providing the challenge of competing against adverse morality and proving that there are positive, healthy ways of growing into adulthood. Heidi Delp, of Lakemoor recently attended a leadership training camp at Rockford with youngsters of high schools from throughout the state, to develop skills which would enable them ; to help their peers maintain healthy relationships. Over 500 student at East Campus have been involved in the Operation Snowball program since its -inception in March, 1982. Heidi has grown im­ measurably in her ability to ' share with her fellow students, -and will undoubtedly continue with the program throughout her high school years. Jesse Li Chard, also of Lakemoor, has joined the program which supports alternatives to alcohol, drugs and other problems our young people face. Margaret Karas 385-4934 LADIES' CHRISTMAS The Lily Lake Ladig&League enjoyed its annual Christmas dinner, and after a delicious meal in a pleasant atmosphere, the ladies gathered at the home of Ann Sossong to do their usual thing, play bunco.

LIBRARY CHRISTMAS Santa Claus helpers, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Temple, por­ traying Father and Mother Christmas, welcomed about 40 youngsters to the annual Christmas party held at the McHenry Nunda Library Dec. 15. Old fashioned wooden string toys were given by Father Christmas, who asked the children to tell him what they planned to give or do for others at Christmas, rather than just listen to their "wants." Mother Christmas told of the coming of the baby and the real meaning of Christmas, and gave little booklets of praise to each child. ' ' "The Kitten Who~> Learned How To Purr" was the title of the puppet show presented by Friends of the library Lorry Deeke and Vickie Delp, assisted by Brian Deeke and Heidi Delp. Lave was the answer for the kitten, as it is for the rest of us. Then, the pinata! Mrs. Marie Jaimes of Lilymoor had made a Santa Claus pinata which had been hanging in the library for a week. Pattie Jaimes gave in­ structions cm how this exciting Ringwood: Local youth to go caroling - Youth of the Greenwood- iRingwood parish, and any t adults who wish to join them, will meet at the Ringwood -United Methodist Church ISunday, at 6 p.m., to go caroling. -Snacks will be served at the f-parsonage following the f" caroling. r+m--mmmmmmm--mmmmrnmmmmmm :Katy Christopher 385-8037 | Doris Low 653-9262 f •!

BARREL RETURNED There have been at least three forced entries in our area these last months, with the resulting loss of clothing, coins and homemade wine. In each case, there was little or no damage, and only specific items were taken. And now we can report that one party's loss has been recouped. Sam, our neighbor who made such delicious fruit-of-the- grapes wine, was truly saddened when the barrel filled to red fullness, which he kept in his basement, was stolen. Sam offered a reward and his precious barrel was returned, day for the Christ child and for for which we are all thankful.
