PLANE FUN

For the 43rd year, Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 15 hosted its annual pancake breakfast By Laura Katauskas staff reporter

katauskas@buglenewspapers.com @lkatauskas

For its 43rd year, the Experimental Aircraft Association Chapter 15 hosted its annual pancake breakfast, sharing its love and enthusiasm for planes with all that delight in taking to the skies. George Linkis said this year’s event drew in nearly 75 planes, mostly home-builts that people have worked on for years and enjoy putting on display. Linkis said while the event is for the pure joy of celebrating flying

and building, the funds raised from the breakfast will go toward rebuilding a facility lost in a storm last year. The group normally has a hangar for building an aircraft where its members can tinker and teach Young Eagles the merits of building a plane. The group has been without, just holding meetings and is looking forward to rebuild. “The idea has always been to learn and share what we know,” said Linkis. Chapter 15 meets the second Friday of the month

HERO event focuses on local heroin crisis Local representatives, community come together for support, learning By Laura Katauskas staff reporter

katauskas@buglenewspapers.com @lkatauskas

It was my brother. It was my son. It was my daughter. It was my grandson. Gone to heroin. Everyone has a story. The dark statistics that show more people die of a heroin overdose than a car accident or that it is an epidemic facing the collar counties are sobering, but that’s not all the survivors of those lost want to acknowledge. “These are people, and they are not just a statistic,” said Linda Breit, who lost her son at the age of 24 to the “fatal slip,” after trying to recover from a heroin addiction. “People need to hear the statistics but remember that these are lives lost that have bonds with so many. That’s why HEROs is so important—it puts the faces out there and shatters the perception or stigma associated with what is perceived as a drug addict.” David Breit was headed for success and his family was shocked when they realized he was addicted to heroin. “You could have blown me away with a feather; we had no idea,” said Breit of her son’s use. She said at the time, some eight years ago, heroin was never talked about. “Don’t be in denial about the problem. If it happens to your family, advocate for your child, because once they are gone, they are gone forever,” said Breit. With groups like HERO (Heroin Epidemic Relief Organization) and Will County HELPS (Heroin Education Leads to Preventative Solutions), that is changing, with the premise that collaboration and education about heroin and opiate use is critical to turn the tide on an epidemic that has nearly tripled in the collar counties in Illinois in the last decade. The two organizations in conjunction with the Southwest Coalition for substance abuse issues, hosted its now annual event, A Community’s Public Health Response to the Heroin

Epidemic, May 17, in Romeoville, bringing together area legislators, law enforcement and nearly 50 resources dedicated to helping families and individuals understand and cope with the perils of heroin use. “The largest impact to help is prevention,” said Breit. “I wish I had known at the time; there was not the awareness that there is now. We need to keep telling people and have people hear it.” Retired Chicago Police Capt. John Roberts, who spearheaded HEROs, is on a mission to do just that. Having lost his son Billy at age 19 to heroin, he has been advocating for not only a greater awareness but making it law. Illinois’ 911 overdose Good Samaritan Law now protects friends and family who seek medical help or call 911 and individuals who need emergency medical attention from prosecution for drug possession. According to Roberts, friends and family would fear arrest and not call 911 to get medical help, causing unnecessary deaths. The message is simple, “Don’t run. Call 911.” Fast, emergency medical treatment can save lives. Research has now found that using Naloxone can reverse an overdose and when distributed in communities it can reduce overdose deaths by 50 percent. During an overdose, people stop breathing. Naloxone helps to restore breathing and saves lives. A kit costs $20 to $40 for a full kit, which includes everything a person who would need to reverse an overdose.An overdose death by comparison costs taxpayers about $30,000. State Rep. Natalie Manley, D-Joliet, who spoke at the event along with many of her colleagues, including state Sen. Jennifer Bertino-Tarrant, D-Shorewood, reminded the audience the power of one person, calling attention to the efforts of Roberts who brought it all to the forefront. Manley, a chief co-sponsor, spoke of the legislature’s Young Adult’s Heroin Task Force which originated for high school students and has now expanded to include middle school

students. “I’ve talked to first responders and they report that they are giving Naloxone at least once a day---that’s an epidemic,” said Manley. “We have the facts so that when it comes time to ask for funding, we have the proof. We have Billy’s Law and it is our goal to help bring your ideas to fruition.” The movement is leading to further education, including that from the Robert Crown Center, who is piloting a school-based heroin prevention program using a variety of tools including an interactive web-based tool to teach students about heroin and spark a candid conversation about its use. It is the support events like that hosted by HEROs and HELP that matter to those either in recovery or for those who have loved and lost. “You have to readjust your life in grieving,” said Linda Breit, sister of David. The first year we were drowning.The second year we had to pick ourselves up and not let heroin win. We need to talk about it, so it doesn’t happen again. Our goal is to have no one ever feel like this again.” After her the loss of her older brother, Breit continued her studies and has become a drug and alcohol substance counselor.

Evaluating the superheroes in our community By nicK reiHer maNaGiNG eDiTOr

nreiher@buglenewspapers.com @JolietIlnews

I have told you before how my wife Tammy is the coolest. She bought me that Wilson A2000 I always wanted for our 25th anniversary. And on Mother’s Day, she likes for us all to go see a movie. And not a chick flick, mind you. She likes going to see the latest Marvel superhero movie out. Now, one could say she (and my daughter) don’t mind seeing Robert Downey Jr. as Iron Man, Chris Hemsworth as Thor, or, in this case, Chris Evans as Captain America. We saw CA’s latest movie on Mother’s Day. I don’t care. I followed Marvel comics in the 1960s. They always had a good amount of eye candy for pre-pubescent boys, too. And that hasn’t changed. The other thing that doesn’t change with Marvel, or many other superhero-type comics, is that people do not stay dead very long. Captain America was preserved since World War II in an ice mass. X-Men come and go like movie star

spouses. Even the venerable Nick Fury had a close call in this past movie. It made me think that right here in Will County, we have a couple of superheroes (or supervillians, depending on your point of view), who just will not die. The first would be the Human Extinguisher. Is there a fire anywhere in Will County? The Human Extinguisher will, by getting this burning feeling, find it, put it out and make sure it doesn’t happen again. There should be no burning anywhere in Will County, says the Human Extinguisher. There are too many people with chronic breathing problems to allow burning anywhere. Never mind the problem really is that there are too few people with common sense, the Human Extinguisher will make sure there is no burning. When a committee rejected amendments to limit open burning in the county, Chairman Joe Babich proposed hiring two part-time Land Use Department workers to monitor opening burning situations in the next few months and report back in the fall. Those two part-time eyes are

For more than a year, County Board Member Steve Balich has tried to get the use of aerial photography banned in Will County.

Remembering those we’ve lost on Memorial Day

As I was reading my paper this morning, I read the story about our President awarding the Medal of Honor to Kyle White. Some years ago, I wrote about our Romeoville Kyle Wright and the courage he displayed during battle. Our Kyle is deceased. He gave his life for his country. He reigns with all of the other veterans who have served our country, in combat or not. In this news article, I read Kyle White’s sign or call is “Charlie -1-6 Romeo. This also came to my attention because my husband Charlie (Chuck), who is now deceased, had the same name and sign. I am proud to write my Charlie was on Utah Beach (second group) during the invasion of Normandy 70

years ago on June 6, 1944. In fact, Dwight Eisenhower had set D-Day for June 5, 1944, but cancelled because of the very choppy English Channel. Very seldom did my husband talk about the invasion, but when he did, it was horrific. There were many heroes that day. Some never came home. Within our Golden Agers Club, I have been privileged to know veterans who went on the Honor Flight. My husband, and many other veterans, will never have that honor. Life and time has taken them. Some of the Romeoville veterans who have been on this Honor Flight were shown love, respect and gratefulness. They were honored for their valor. They were Betty, Chester, Ray and Nick. All veterans are deserving of this distinction. As Memorial Day approaches, I and many shed tears for what my 19-year-old husband, and

Remember to support agencies who support those with disabilities Agencies that provide community-based services for people with disabilities find themselves doing more and more each year with less and less. Illinois is closing many of its large state operated facilities—a move welcomed by many community service providers. Any one of us would prefer to live in homes in the community instead of institutions. We all yearn for independence; some people simply need more assistance than others. But, as many providers welcome more individuals into their programs, the gap between what it costs to provide these services and what the state is willing to pay becomes wider. Like all businesses, expenses continue to rise, but funding has remained stagnant for seven years. Agencies need experienced, trained professionals to maintain quality services. Unfortunately, providers too often lose good

employees to better-paying jobs in other fields--or other states. The staff who stay work harder than ever, but can struggle to make ends meet at home. A $1-an-hour wage increase proposed by Gov. Quinn is an important first step in closing the gap in funding and helping direct-care workers across the state live with greater financial security. Members of the General Assembly will be making some difficult budget decisions this year. Investing in the state’s social service partners is a smart move, and the right thing to do. We urge our state elected officials to make funding for people with disabilities a priority. Ben Stortz, President/CEO, Cornerstone Services, Inc.

I must always respect, honor, and appreciate all veterans (combat or not). Freedom Is Not Free. The Honor Flight is just one example that is a success. Our future and present generation will emulate the courage shown by their forebears. We Americans are proud.

>> marvel, from page 7 the language go to the full board. Open burning and the use of aerial photography obviously are emotional topics. But there have been many, many committee meetings and several public hearings on each. And each time, the very same issues are debated. But if the people pushing the issues don’t like the answers they get, they or others in their political party will find a way to resurrect them. What smells of pure, political power wrangling could just be the odor of a new superhero (or annoying sidekick) the Armored Horse-man, created after the horse was beaten to death, processed into dog food and armored with a tin can.

Pulliam advances to state for Spartans By Scott Taylor sports editor

staylor@enterprisepublications.com @Taylor_Sports

Romeoville will be represented at the state meet May 23 and 24 at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston by junior Cierra Pulliam. Pulliam, who qualified in the sprint relays last year, advanced this year as an individual out of the Downers South Sectional May 16. She took second place in the triple jump with a jump of 35feet, 05.5-inches. “It feels really great to be going to state,” Pulliam said. “I’m a little disappointed at my measurement though. I wanted the qualifying distance, but I still got second so I’m pretty happy about that. Next year I’m going to go for it. If I didn’t have the quad injury, I probably would have hit the mark. This is my first individual event to go to state in so I’m so excited and I can’t wait to get to state.” Pulliam will use her past experience at state to her advantage.

“I have the feeling of how state is and I think I can handle it,” Pulliam said. “I’m really excited and can’t wait. My goal is to get 38 (feet) and get on the board for our school. I’m just pushing for it. Practice next week is going to be hard. It is really special and I’m so glad to be representing for Romeoville.” She will also be looking to get her quad healthy. “I have to get quad work for it from my trainers,” Pulliam stated. “I’m just going to work, rest and ice it.” • Bolingbrook’s Jessica Watkins feels like she has some unfinished business this year. Last year she qualified for state and made the podium in both the 100 and 200-meter dashes. However, she placed ninth in both events. “I just wanted to make state and now I want to PR and finish in the top five in both events,” Watkins said. “I feel the most confident in the 100, but I’m pushing in the other. I’m excited for state, there will be good competition.There’s going to be some good races. I’m >> see STATE | page 14

Spartans ready to fight for advancement By Mark Gregory sports reporter

mark@buglenewspapers.com @Hear_The_Beard

As the IHSA Class 4A brackets were released last week, both Bolingbrook and Romeoville baseball teams find themselves with an uphill battle in a very tough sectional complex. The Spartans are the No. 18 seed in the Oswego Sectional and open play in the Downers Grove South Regional at 4 p.m. Monday, May 26 at No. 14 Hinsdale South in a play-in game. The winner of that game will face off at 4:30 p.m.Wednesday, May 28 against No. 3 Downers Grove South. “We get what we earned,” Romeoville coach Dave Haskins said of the seed. “Our sectional is one of the best if not the best. A lot of quality teams and programs, but I think anything can happen. A very good pitcher can beat any team.” The Spartans are coming off big conference wins lately and hope to ride some momentum. “As a team we are playing great baseball,” Haskins said. “We have won the last four out of five with wins over Plainfield South and Minooka. Our players trust our teammates and they

communicate well when it comes to the little things.” Bolingbrook is hosting a regional complex, but the No. 19 Raiders must earn a right to play at home. They open play Monday at No. 16 Oswego East in a play-in game, with the winner playing at Bolingbrook at 4:30 p.m. Wednesday, May 28 against No. 1 seed Plainfield North. The softball seeds were not any more kind to the Valley View schools. Romeoville drew a No. 15 seed and will host a play-in game against No. 18 Joliet Central at 4:30 p.m. Monday, May 26. A win means a date with No. 2 Lockport at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 27. “As a whole we are playing well together,” Romeoville coach Christina Douglas said. “I believe we are peaking at the right time. Specifically, Skye Osborne has been a dominant threat offensively for us this season with an average consistently above .500. In addition, she has been pitching very well for us. Our confidence will give us an advantage. We have nothing to lose and we have been working >> see FIGHT | page 14

Slammers win 3-2 The Joliet Slammers-Presented by ATI Physical Therapy-scored three runs in the final two innings and rallied to defeat Southern Illinois 3-2 on Saturday night at Silver Cross Field in a game that started as a pitchers’ dual. Blair Walters allowed only two singles through the first three innings for Joliet. In the 4th, the Miners managed another single and a walk before Matt Howard would single to right. CJ Epperson had the ball roll through his legs and a run would score to make it 1-0.Miquel Ramirez had faced the minimum 9 batters through the first three

innings for Southern Illinois on just 33 pitches. Joliet’s Darian Sandford led off the 4th with a single but was caught stealing. He was finally lifted in the 7th after allowing a home run to the Miners’ Chris Burke that pushed the score to 2-0. Santo Manzanillo came on with his mid-90’s fastball and got out of the inning without any more damage. Adam Giacalone doubled with one out in the 7th and that brought Derrick Miramontes out of the Miners’ bullpen. In the ninth, Tre-von Johnson drew the game-ending walk to give the Slammers the 3-2 win.

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.
