New library director puts patrons first

Julia Coen was named library director in late April By Jonathan Samples

By jonathan samples staff reporter When you think of the Olympic sport of luge, the village of Westmont is probably not a place you would associate with this winter game. Images of world-class athletes barreling down winding ice tracks at speeds upwards of 85 mph may make it seem like this quiet Chicago suburb is a bad location for luge. But, that assumption would be incorrect. “Westmont has been an awesome host,” said Lin Hancock, former member of the U.S. National Luge Team and volunteer coach for the USA Luge Slider Search program. “This is the third time Westmont has hosted this program, and it’s the perfect venue.”

There is much more to being a successful library director than paying the bills and managing a staff. Just ask new Westmont Public Library Director Julia Coen, who knows customer service and stewardship are the primary responsibilities of Julia Coen the library’s top dog.

The Lion’s Club will collect donations at this year’s event to support the People’s Resource Center, a DuPage County organization that offers food, clothing and rent assistance to people in need. “The first responsibility of the Westmont Lions Club is to serve the community,” said Westmont trustee Jim Addington, who also serves as the Red, White and BBQ Competition Chair. “If we can collect donations of nonperishable items to pass

on to area families, then that would be a great thing for our community to support.” The RWBBQ Festival will be held at Ty Warner Park on the corner of Blackhawk and Plaza drives on Memorial Day Weekend, May 23 to 25. If residents bring non-perishable donations to the Lions Club Information Tent at the event, then they will receive “BBQ Bucks,” which can be redeemed for purchases at the event. “In addition, we have received a commitment from some of our contestants that they will cook BBQ at the event and then donate it to local families through our People’s Resource Center,” Addington said. “We think this is an exciting new

For this list of cities, editors first identified cities with high concentrations of school-age children, then took a look at how their schools stacked up and analyzed factors like childhood mortality rates, health insurance coverage, crime rates and the percentage of restaurants that feature kids’ menus. “An extremely low crime rate, great parks and highly rated schools make the Village of Downers Grove, Ill., an excellent

were the number of parks, playgrounds, libraries and recreational venues geared specifically for children, as well as the availability of great options for parents. Downers Grove was chosen for its highly rated schools and less than a quarter of the national average crime rate. The village’s 600 acres of parks and green space, more than 140 festivals and community events, and renovated downtown provide an abundance of activities for kids, according to Livability The Livability articles cites the village’s recent Green Fleet ranking, renovations at the Downers Grove Public Library, and village plans to add more pedestrian and bicycle paths as factors that went into their ranking.

Village introduces Volunteers 4 Lisle civic program

The village of Lisle has introduced a new initiative that provides the public with an opportunity to volunteer for the village in a variety of ways. By accessing the wealth of available local talent and resources, the Volunteers 4 Lisle program will be able to significantly expand service to the Lisle community and become better prepared for both routine and emergency situations. Volunteers will perform a variety of activities depending on their interests and experience. The program supports a major objective of the Lisle Village Board, that of expanding opportunities for civic engagement and involvement.

This new program was spearheaded by Chief of Police Dave Anderson, who patterned this program after the Volunteers in Police Service Program, which is administered by the U.S. Department of Justice. Anderson said he wanted to tap into the strong volunteer spirit present in the Lisle community and utilize volunteers more broadly, in both routine and emergency situations. Volunteers will be assigned to assist many different village departments, performing a variety of duties involving special events, emergency management, public works, traffic control, administrative duties and more.

>> library, from page 1 parts of the job is actually having that relationship with them. I think that that’s what makes this feel like such a community space that people can come to.” The Westmont Public Library Board of Trustees unanimously approved Coen’s appointment to library director during their April 29 meeting. Coen has been in charge unofficially since late October, when her predecessor, Christine Kuhn, resigned after 12 years on the job. During that time, Coen learned the ins and outs of her new role and identified several priorities, including self-checkout and a digital media lab. At the top of her list of priorities is redesigning the adult services area to provide more collaborative spaces for

the community. Currently, the library has a main community room and several study rooms and conference rooms, but Coen said these spaces aren’t meeting the community’s needs. “One of the things we’re going to look at when we do this redesign is offering more of those spaces for groups who come in to collaborate and meet and do whatever it is they want to use the space for,” she said. Coen started with the Westmont Public Library in 2007 as a Public Service Associate. After earning her master’s degree in library and information science from Dominican University, she was hired as a full-time reference librarian before being promoted to assistant director. Westmont Library Board

President Amy Porter said Coen was the best candidate to help lead the library through its current strategic plan. “Julia is service-minded, very organized and a great communicator,” Porter said in a press release. “She is a natural at building consensus with the staff and reaching out to the village, schools and community. We look forward to working with her for years to come.” Coen said her tenure at the library would continue to be guided by her commitment to the library’s patrons and their needs. “We serve the residents,”Coen said. “They’re the taxpayers; they’re the ones who actually own these collections and this building. I remind myself of that every day.”

Mustangs win sectional title, duo win individual titles By Scott Taylor sports editor

staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports

It was a cold, damp night May 16 for the Class 3A Downers Grove South track and field sectional. While that kept times higher than normal for a sectional meet, it didn’t stop Downers South from winning the sectional title, edging Hinsdale Central 67-65. The Mustangs walked away with a pair of individual championships, both sophomores, as Shaliyah DixonTucker won the 100 hurdles (15.29) and Michaela Hackbarth was victorious in the 800 run (2 minutes, 14.45 seconds). “I knew I had to get above qualifying time,” Dixon-Tucker said.“In my head I said it was my race. I’m really excited and happy because my goal was to go down in an individual event this year. It feels really great with all of the pushing and hard work.” “It feels great,” Hackbarth said. “I’ve worked so hard in every workout and used every opportunity to train to be the best I can be. It was a great night. I’m really happy (to win a team sectional title). Everyone has worked so hard, it is amazing.” The top two finishers in each event and those that made the state mark in their event advanced to the state meet, which takes place May 23 and May 24 at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston. Hackbarth also qualified in the 400 (58.71), while Dixon-Tucker was a part of the 800 relay team that qualified with a time of 1:46.5. She was joined in the relay by Nicole Muccianti, Soren Umali and Kiera James. Both sophomores have state experience after being members of the 800 relay all-state team from last year and they plan to

use that to their advantage. “My goal is to be top three in state (in the 800),”said Hackbarth, who had the third fastest time among all Class 3A sectionals. “Last year the girls were great and I didn’t know what to do and this year (state) is not my first rodeo anymore, so it should be good.” “Next week I’m hoping to make finals and be on the podium,” Dixon-Tucker said. Also qualifying for the Mustangs were Abby Kargol (11:04.8) and Haley Albers (11:13.14) in the 3,200 and Amanda Thate in the 1,600 (5:04.09). •Downers North opened the meet with its lone sectional champion, the 3,200 relay team of Zayna Jan, Emma Moravec, Stephanie Urbancik and Margaret Schaub, who clocked in with a time of 9:20.86. That time is the second fastest of all sectional times throughout Class 3A. “I was just really excited as a freshman to go out there and race well,” said Moravec, who led off the relay.“I’m happy with my race. It is definitely one of my favorite races. I’m happy to win a sectional title, but state is where the money is at. Our goal is to be the state champion.” “It’s really exciting because for the past four years we have won it every year and it is good to keep the tradition going,” Jan added. The relay has advanced to the state finals and been all-state for the past four years, including a state title in 2011 and is coming off of back-to-back sixth-place finishes. “I’m hoping to do the best we can and to do better than we did last year,” Jan said. “We want to get better each year. I’m excited we have two new additions to >> see TITLE | page 14

Roundup: Lisle soccer wins regional title By mike sandrolini For the bugle

mike@buglenewspapers.com @voyagersport

Lisle wrapped up the HinckleyBig Rock regional championship over the host school with a 2-1 triumph May 16. The Lions advanced to their own sectional Tuesday against St. Joseph, which won the Westmont regional. Kelsey Kretman netted a goal from 25 yards out to put the Lions up 1-0 in the first half. Hinckley-Big Rock scored near the end of the half to tie it, but the Lions scored 24 seconds into the second half on Kara Laue’s goal, assisted by Calli Tomko. Hannah Prindeville got the victory in goal. Lisle ousted Plano 6-0 in its regional opener on May 13. Elena Pivek, a senior, scored a hat trick to lead the Lions offensively. Tomko also had a goal, as did Brean Hutchison. Erin Zurek notched her first career goal. Benet hosted St. Viator on May 13, and with a victory would have locked up the ESCC title.However, St. Viator scored a game-tying goal with just over five minutes left, and the matchup ended in a 1-1 tie. The Redwings thus will share this year’s crown with the Lions. Michelle Morefield tallied the Redwings’ only goal on a free kick with under 25 minutes to go in the first half. Westmont saw its season come to a close last week, but the Sentinels didn’t go down without a fight. St. Joseph needed two overtimes to beat Westmont, 1-0, on May 13.

TENNIS Downers South’s boys tennis team took home another West Suburban Conference Gold Division championship last weekend, and coach Pete Freischlag said his team is raring to go heading into this weekend’s York sectional. “We’re a really young team so we’re all excited,” he said. “The guys are chomping (at the bit) and ready to go. They’re excited for sectionals.” Junior Tony Leto claimed the WSG title at No. 1 singles, while junior Christian San Andres secured first place at No. 2 singles and sophomore Nishant Lala won the No. 3 singles crown. Taking the No. 2 doubles title

was the team of seniors Ryan McMillan and Mitchell Plys. Senior Alan Bui and junior Tim Kargl took first at No. 3 doubles, and freshman JJ Urgello teamed up with sophomore Andrew Garcia for first at No. 4 doubles. Freshman Lawrence Hiquiana and sophomore Zach Wood were second at No. 1 doubles. “We were stellar,” Freischlag said. “Tony and Christian, there’s not a better one-two. There’s only a couple of schools that can match them. They’ve been phenomenal all year. We’re just playing great tennis. The kids that play doubles, how much better they’ve gotten is a really good sign for us.”

SOFTBALL Lisle at Westmont: The host Sentinels jumped out on Lisle early on May 12, taking a 4-0 lead after two innings and going on to beat the Lions, 9-2. Kristen Skala pitched a complete game five-hitter and struck out 11. She also went 2-for-3 and drove in a run. Maria Prete doubled in three runs and Skyler Poel hit a double and had an RBI. Kiera Aldridge also drove in a run. For the Lions, Bella Daly (two RBIs), Lauren Holub, Summer Stitt and Catherine Coppin each doubled. The Lions and Sentinels squared off again the next day, but this time, Lisle came out on top, 7-4, after opening up a 5-0 lead through four innings. Melissa Ericson was the winning pitcher with a completegame effort. Erica Krause was the hitting star for Lisle, with a double and single and three RBIs. Holub and Stitt each had a double and an RBI. Coppin, Ericson and Megan Carlson also drove in runs. Skala launched a three-run homer for Westmont, and Prete chippe in with a double and two singles. Lauren Verdera also knocked in a run. Downers North started last week by upending Lyons Township, 10-6, on May 12. Dale Ryndak and Jaclyn Pasakamis each homered in the sixth, while Kelsey Gockman (two hits) hit a home run in the first inning. Zoe Varsbergs doubled and drove in >> see ROUNDUP | page 14

Locals perform well at state meet By Mark Gregory sports reporter

mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard

For the past few seasons, Downers Grove North has carried the torch for the district gymnastic teams and while the Trojans still had success, Downers Grove South got in the mix this year, advancing to the IHSA state meet as a team. The Mustangs placed eighth in state with 138.8 points.Wheaton Co-Op won the meet with 161.55. Leading the way for South was freshman Dominic Tommasone, who was 11th in the all-around with a score of 49.7. He tallied an 8.7 on the floor, an 8.6 on the pommel horse, a 7.35 on still rings, an 8.85 on vault, a 7.9 on parallel bars and an 8.3 on horizontal bar for an average score of 8.2833. Although Tommasone was the second best freshman in the meet, the competitive athlete in him wanted more. “For me, it wasn’t a great showing,” he said. “I could have been better, but I was happy with the outcome.” Also competing in the allaround for the Mustangs was freshman Brock Herion who was 28th with 44.9. He scored an 8.05 on the floor, a 6.65 on the pommel horse, a 7.9 on still rings, an 8.3 on vault, a 7.25 on parallel bars and a 6.75 on horizontal bar for an average score of 7.4833. “I am pretty happy with my performance,” he said. “I didn’t qualify for the (individual) finals, but I just had to be the best I

could be.” Two South gymnasts did compete in the individual finals. Sophomore Evan Baird placed 10th in the vault with an 8.8. “I am happy with my performance, I am proud of myself,” he said.“I am so glad that we were able to come here as a team and we were so excited.” Tommasone advanced to finals in three events. He placed sixth in the vault (6.25), seventh in the pommel horse (8.5) and 10th in the parallel bars (7.95). “It is exciting,” said South coach Bill Norris. “We have a very young team. I am excited about that and hopefully these guys keep working hard and keep improving. I think a few of them are not happy with what they did and I hope that hunger carries on While Downers Grove North did not advance as a team this year, the Trojans did manage a successful meet. Junior Jeremy Guinn placed 13th in the pommel horse with a score of 7.2. Guinn said it took one of his best performances to get to the finals. “It was one of my best that I have done. We put in a lot of hard work and this is the time where you have to throw your best to get to finals,” he said. “It feels great being one of the top guys and not being a club guy. I had to put in a ton of work from my freshman year.” Senior Thomas Brethauer led the way for the Trojans, tying >> see STATE | page 14

however, he was presented the 2014 Senior Gymnast of the Year award as elected by the IHSA coaches. “It was a great honor. I feel grateful that they selected me for that,” he said. “There are a lot of great guys out there and I am very thankful that I was selected to represent the senior class.”

Overall, new head coach Tony Ciezadlo was pleased with the performance of the Trojans. “The kids that we have that are seniors are great models for the younger kids,” he said. “Kids like Tom Brethauer come in freshman year and they are sloppy and can’t do anything and they their senior year they

are in the state finals. Our kids work hard every day in the gym. To get three kids to the finals, especially in a tournament like this, is great. Many of these kids have been working since they were small and we had two kids come in freshman year with no experience. I am ecstatic. I am so pleased I have goose bumps.”

>> downhill from page 1 Now in its 29th year, the annual Slider Search program is the primary method of recruitment for USA Luge, and last weekend the program made a stop in Westmont. Hancock, who also teaches physical education at Roosevelt Middle School in River Forest, said more than 70 percent of the sport’s athletes are introduced to luge through Slider Search. Gordy Sheer, marketing director with USA Luge and a silver medal winner in the men’s doubles event at the 1998 Nagano games, said the Slider Search helps children and future lugers become interested in the sport. “We don’t have a lot of facilities, so we count on this program to bring the sport to people,” he said. Volunteers from USA Luge and the village of Westmont set up a mock course on Cass Avenue between 55th and West Dallas streets, a stretch of road Hancock called the “perfect hill” for a Slider Search event. Children ages 9 to 13 were given the opportunity to take part in a free luge clinic, make practice runs down the hill and see if they have what it takes to one-day perform at the Olympic level. “Down the road, it’s definitely possible that somebody who did this Westmont clinic might end up on the Olympic team,” Hancock said. It wouldn’t be the first time. Former Olympian Becky Brand (Wilczak) was discovered during a Chicago-area Slider Search in the 1990s. Wilczak finished fourth in the 2002 Winter Olympics. Erin Hamilin, who became the first American luger to medal in a singles event at the recent Sochi Olympic games, also was discovered during at Slider Search event. USA Luge holds several Slider Search events around the country each year, and the children who show promise could be invited to test their skills on ice at one of four USA Luge-sanctioned training sites. But, it wasn’t just children having fun Saturday and Sunday. People of all ages attended Saturday’s event for the opportunity to test the luge course, including representatives from the village, Maercker School District,

Westmont Public Works employee John Dispensa makes a second practice run Saturday on the USA Luge Slider Search course.

“I did it about 10 years ago the last time they were here,” Dispensa said. “You’re nervous going down because you feel like you’re going faster than you’re actually going. “This time it was a lot different. The last time it was kind of scary.” Community Unit School District 201, the Westmont Public Library and the park district. “We had a community luge challenge in which we invited members from all the organizations in town,” said Westmont communications director Larry McIntyre. “We reached out to as many people as we could and gave them an opportunity to do this. Thankfully the U.S. Luge team

was accommodating with that request.” Westmont Public Works employee John Dispensa took first place in the uncompetitive challenge, which took place at noon Saturday in between Slider Search clinics. Dispensa, 24, is not new to street luge and may have used previous Slider Search experience to get the best of his Westmont colleagues. “I did it about 10 years ago the last time they were here,” Dispensa said. “You’re nervous going down because you feel like you’re going faster than you’re actually going. “This time it was a lot different. The last time it was kind of scary.” Sheer said there will be several more Slider Search events around the country through the summer and fall before the most promising young lugers are invited to a USA Luge training site.

Try my version here to start out. Then branch out with your own variations. Make Four Seasons Pizzas a perennial favorite in your own kitchen! such a pizza is simply to offer four distinctively different eating experiences, each on its own section of the pizza - which you divide into four separate sections by making an X of thin dough strips on top. In the recipe I share here, the four toppings are mushrooms, tomato, prosciutto and crabmeat, but you could substitute any of a wide roster of other ingredients, including shaved artichoke hearts or Yukon gold potatoes, sauteed shrimp or steamed and shelled clams, roasted bell pepper strips, thinly sliced salami, or anything else you fancy. Just be sure to offer variety, and to make enough pizzas so that every guest gets a slice from every section. Try my version here to start out. Then branch out with your own variations.

recipe

FOUR SEASONS PIZZAS Serves 8 to 12

Pizza Dough Makes enough for 3 pizzas 1 packet active dry yeast 1 teaspoon honey 1 cup warm water, 105-115 degrees F. 3 cups all-purpose flour 1 teaspoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil Pizza toppings 6 ounces cultivated mushrooms, cleaned and sliced 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil Salt Freshly ground black pepper 1/2 pound cooked crabmeat 1 medium tomato 8 thin slices prosciutto, cut into julienne strips 1-1/2 cups Tomato Sauce (recipe follows) 2 cups each shredded mozzarella and Fontina 2 tablespoons shredded fresh basil 1 tablespoon freshly grated Parmesan

Prepare the dough at least 1 hour ahead. Put a pizza stone in the oven and preheat to 500 degrees F. In a saute pan over high heat, saute the mushrooms in the oil until tender, 5 to 7 minutes; season with salt and pepper and set aside. Remove any shell or cartilage from the crabmeat. Cut the tomato into 6 slices. On a floured board, stretch out 3 dough balls to 10-inch circles. Divide the remaining ball into 6 pieces and roll each into a 10-inch strip. Spread the sauce evenly among the 3 circles, leaving narrow rims. Evenly distribute the cheese. Place 2 dough strips across each pizza to divide it into quarters. Garnish a quarter of each pizza with tomato; another with crabmeat; another with mushrooms; and another with prosciutto. Slide a pizza onto the hot pizza stone. Bake until golden brown, 7 to 8 minutes. Slide the pizza from the oven to a cutting board. With a sharp knife, cut into slices. Sprinkle basil over the tomato, and Parmesan

TOMATO SAUCE Makes about 2-1/2 cups 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 small yellow onion, minced 3 cloves garlic, minced 1 tablespoon tomato paste 2 pounds Roma tomatoes, peeled, seeded, and diced 1 cup organic chicken broth, heated 1/4 cup finely shredded fresh basil Salt Freshly ground black pepper

over the mushrooms. Serve immediately. Repeat with remaining pizzas. In a small bowl, dissolve the yeast and honey in 1/4 cup of the water. In a mixer with a dough hook, or a food processor with the stainless-steel blade, combine the flour and salt. Add the oil, yeast mixture, and remaining water and mix on low speed until the dough clusters around the dough hook; or process until it rides on the processor blade. Turn out onto a clean work surface and knead by hand until smooth and firm, 2 to 3 minutes. Cover with a clean, damp towel and leave in a warm spot to rise for 30 minutes. Divide the dough into 4 equal balls. Shape each by pulling down the sides and tucking under the bottom, repeating 4 or 5 times. Then, on a smooth, unfloured surface, roll under your palm until smooth and firm, about 1 minute. Cover with a damp towel and leave to rest about 20 minutes. At this point, the balls can be wrapped in plastic and refrigerated for up to 2 days. In a medium saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Saute the onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook 1 minute longer. Add the tomato paste and cook for 3 minutes. Add the tomatoes and broth and simmer, stirring occasionally, until a thick sauce forms, about 20 minutes. Strain into a clean saucepan. Stir in the basil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
