municated by way of Facebook to that juror that he should nullify any verdict of guilt in that particular case and vote not guilty or ‘hang the jury’ if necessary.’” State Appellate Prosecutor Ed Parkinson appeared for the State to present the state’s prima fascia case while Lamb appeared in court along with his attorneys, Patrick Watts of St. Louis and Elliott Turpin of Carrollton. Parkinson called only two witnesses in presenting his case – Chief Deputy Cale Hoesman and Mark Boston, the juror on the case that Lamb allegedly communicated with. Through testimony presented at the preliminary hearing, more details on the incident were revealed. Boston, a friend of Lamb’s and also a can-

First Presbyterian Church in Carrollton will be presenting “Celebrate America” on July 5 with a free cookout and concert in honor of the county’s veterans. The program is a collaborative effort between The Lesters of St. Louis and the Chosen Ones from Manchester who have come together to create an inspirational and patriotic program, which will include not only music but a slide show and Power Point presentation. “Our church has started to concentrate more on community outreach and what we can do for the community to show that we are here doing our part and trying to spread the message of God’s word and trying to take care of people,” Tim Reif said. “Our Nurturing Committee felt this would be a great community outreach along with a nice way to honor our area’s veterans.” The program is intended to honor God, family and coun-

Roodhouse changes council meeting dates by CArmeN eNSiNger Greene Prairie Press Roodhouse City Council members voted at the June 18 regular monthly meeting to change the meeting dates of their council meetings to the second and fourth Wednesday of the month in order to better allow for the payment of bills, which come due before the former meeting date. Prior to the passage of the ordinance, the council met for a workshop on the second Wednesday of the month followed by the regular city council meeting on the fourth Wednesday. Now, both the workshop and the regular meeting will be held on the same night. The workshop meeting will start at 7 p.m. and then the items discussed during this workshop will be voted on and approved at a short council meeting to follow. “We found ourselves having to hold a special meeting just to get a few bills paid that came due before our regular meeting,” Roodhouse Mayor Tommy Martin said. “This is going to allow us to get those bills paid on time. Hopefully the meetings will be shorter, too.” The council approved a motion to go ahead with the water tower repairs in the amount of $147,000, with the money coming from a USDA loan obtained to build the water plant. “This will pretty much wrap up our water project with the exception of capping the wells at the old plant,”

Martin said. “We have money left for that, but we can’t cap them until we find out what they are going to require to cap them.” Martin said the $147,000 will physically put the tower back in shape for another three years and cover basically everything except painting the outside. It will include the repair to the riser at the top where it is leaking, new concrete around base, painting inside the tank and riser, blow off valves throughout the city and tank inspection. Also included is money for preliminary field engineering and a complete inspection. Engineers will be on site when it is completed. With Alderman Garrett Rogers absent from the meeting, council members Charlie Huffines, Barb Alred, Jim Knox and Ralph Phillips unanimously agreed to move city worker Tim Garner from part-time status to full-time status as an employee at the South Shop. Alderwoman Terry Garner abstained from the vote because Tim Garner is her husband. Also under personnel, the council hired Matt Goben as a new lineman with the electric department. Goben will be hired in at the level of Apprentice 1. The bid from Stutz Excavating, Inc. out of Alton in the amount of $20,500 was accepted by the council for the demolition of the building located at 319 West Clay with work expected to begin in July.

– stand your ground and inform the jury of fija.org,” Lamb posted to the social networking site. The traffic case in question was a Speeding in a School Zone case. Boston was elected floor person for the jury and the resulting verdict was not guilty. Watts said the comments on Facebook were protected under the First Amendment as Lamb’s right to free speech. Scott County Circuit Judge David Cherry, who was presiding over the case, did not agree and denied the defense’s Motion to Dismiss, setting the case for arraignment on July 2 at 1:30 p.m. at which time Lamb will either plead guilty or not guilty. Unlawful Communication with a Juror is a Class 4 felony in Illinois.

This money, in its entirety, will be donated to the Greene County Veteran’s Assistance Committee to help local veterans with their medicine, power bills, etc. “Everyone, including the county, is cutting their budgets and programs like the Veteran’s Assistance Commission will probably fall victim to these cuts,” Reif said. “That is why we decided to have this program because all of the money we raise will go directly to the VAC – none of it will go to the church.” However, to bring the program to Carrollton, the church had to raise $2,000. This was done through a fundraising dinner in March, which brought in almost half of the needed funds and 25 to 30 individual donations from businesses and individuals. “We sent a letter out to all of the businesses and churches in the county and I would say within less than a month we had raised the (See, concert, A2)

FIJA stands for Fully Informed Jury Association and it is a national non-profit website informing everyone of jurors’ right to consult conscience and exercise jury nullification to set aside the law when justice requires it. In a subsequent post, Boston acknowledges receipt of the name of the website and Lamb responded. “Hopefully it’s a seatbelt ticket. Sometimes I daydream about being on a jury that votes not guilty on a seat belt ticket. You have the right to judge the law and the action. Hang the jury if necessary

“Greenefield Elementary showed student growth for 2013 in the subject areas of reading and math as they performed above the state average in both areas,” Bowman said. Student academic growth measures the average rate of growth over the past two years calculated from scores on statewide tests. In reading, Greenfield Elementary students average 103 while the state average is 102. In math, Greenfield did exceedingly better than the state average. They scored a 106 while the state average is 101. Bowman said that Greenfield, Carrollton and Calhoun were the only area schools that met or exceeded the state average in student academic growth. Bowman also sent accolades to the high school students. “Greenfield High School students once again scored the highest ACT scores in school history since all students were required to take the ACT test,” he said. “The ACT is a college readiness assessment for high school achievement and college admission in the United States.” Greenfield students in 2014 scored a composite score of 20.12 which exceeds the composite score of 19.9 set in C

2012. In the financial update to the board, Bowman didn’t have quite such good news to report. While the district is still waiting on a fourth payment for mandated categorical, the district should receive $1,275,000 next year, which is around $150,000 less than the previous year. The Greenfield Foundation for Educational Excellence, however, continues to thrive and grow. Board member and Foundation head Elliott Turpin reported that 20 scholarships totaling $9,000 were given out to Greenfield seniors this year and also thanked the community for its support which made this possible. The board discussed and approved the hiring of three Greenfield youths as part-time summer maintenance workers. Following a closed session, it was announced that Brendan Eades, Isaac Masters and Sam Krotz were to be hired as temporary part-time summer help. Bowman presented the board with the Prevailing Wage Resolution documents for review and approval as required by law. He also presented the Prairie State Insurance Coop for renewal. The board approved hiring for several coaching positions throughout the district including: Jeremy Lansaw as junior high boys head basketball coach; Leah Pembrook, high school girls assistant softball coach; Tyann Hallock, junior high boys track coach; Jennifer Grummel, junior high girls track coach; Jacob Bollman, high school boys track coach; Nick Gant, high school girls track coach; Seth Schultz, high school boys baseball assistant coach; Caleb Williams, high school girls softball head coach and Wendi Albrecht and Hattie Hillen, high school cheerleader sponsors. In other action, the board approved: n Motion to dismiss Casey Spears as high school boys baseball head coach. n Motion to hire Luann Hubbard as part-time high school Family and Consumer Science teacher and FCCLA sponsor. n Hunt Scholarship application from Kyle Bishop for $2,000. n Resolution authorizing the abatement of Working Cash fund in the amount of $100,000 to the Operations and Maintenance Fund. n Authorizing the superintendent to post all vacant extra-curricular activity positions.

Carrollton School Board fills vacancy Members of the Carrollton School Board, at their June 16 meeting, appointed Donna Dewitt to fill the vacant position created on the board when Kathy Newingham resigned the position this spring due to her relocation. Superintendent Dr. Kerry Cox reported to the board that construction on maintenance projects at Carrollton High School has begun in the main entry and in the STEM lab. “These projects along with the HVAC work in the library and window replacement in the IT room and locker rooms are partially funded through school maintenance grant funds, which matches district funds for building improvements,” Dr. Cox said. Carrollton High School’s ag program continues to receive accolades, according to Carrollton Superintendent Dr. Kerry Cox, who informed board members at the June 16 school board meeting that ag teacher Christie Joehl had been recognized by the National Association of Agriculture Educators for her work in the district. Congratulations were also extended to the CHS FFA chapter for winning the Cooperative Activities Award at the State FFA Convention in Springfield recently. Ashley Steinacher was named Chapter Reporter of the Year for her diligence and expertise in reporting the FFA news. Congratulations were also extended to the junior high and high school track teams for their participation at the recent IESA and IHSA contests. Several team members were honored for their outstanding accomplishments. At the middle school level the following were honored: Grace Cox, 400 meters; Marley Mullink, 800 meters; Blake Mauer, pole vault; Delaney Settles, discus; Seth Howard, 1600 meters; Lily Baumgartner, 1600 meters; Logan Shaw, discus; Charles Helton, 800 meters; 4x400 relay, Libby Meuth, Lucy Powell, Lily Baumgartner, Marley Mullink and Grace Cox; 4x200 relay, Grae Cox, Marley Mullink, Lucy Powell, Michaela Shanks and Libby Meuth; 4x200 relay, Zach Flowers, Lance Schnelt, Ethan Brannan and

Nathan Cummins. At the high school level: long jump, Claire Meyer; 3200-meter run, Tyler Fry; and high jump, Cody Leonard. A public hearing was held prior to the board meeting for comment on the potential application for a waiver to the Illinois Schools Code, which would permit the district to charge less than 110 percent of the per capita tuition charge for nonresident children of full-time employees of the district. All individual requests would be brought before the board for approval should the waiver be approved by the state legislature this fall. “This waiver would be considered a benefit to our full-time staff members and potentially support teacher retention in the district,” Dr. Cox said. The following personnel action was approved following closed session: n Resignations of Sherry Allen, high school guidance counselor; Jim Caldwell, middle school track coach; Jo Ellen Hutchins, middle school speech coach and Katie Lambdin, third grade teacher. n Approved the employment of Emily Rothe, high school guidance counselor; Alison Sibert, grade school special education teacher; Tiffany Plank, middle school math teacher; Allison Edwards and Melvin Isham, district bus drivers; Lauren Pegue, middle school track coach and Angie McAdams, high school class sponsor. n Approved the following volunteer positions: Patti Nord, high school cheerleading sponsor; Jennifer Pond and Ronda Lewis, assistant high school cheerleading sponsors; Kery Baumgartner, head middle school cross country coach and assistant high school cross country coach. n Approved vacation day pay out to Lori Baez for three unused vacation days. n Approved pay increases for the following exempt employees: Jack Staples, Andy Thomas, Becky Howard, Whitney Marshall and Nancy Waters.

Walkerville Baptist Church news What a day! A little bit of everything. Sun early, then clouds, then wind, then rain, then clouds, then wind. The weatherman can’t make up his mind, as it is to be a repeat today, hot, hot and more hot. All week - summertime in Illinois. We had a good service, even though the crowd was down. The message was very good. Have you any sand on you back step. Meaning - do you hold any ill feeling or resentment to anyone? If so clean it out. Sweep it out of your life and enjoy complete happiness. Hate and sin can make you sick and hate causes many illnesses. The pastor and his wife are on their way to a week of vacation down south. May god provide them safety. The wind has blown several trees down. Thankfully not on anyone’s house. This area has been blessed not to have any tornados. We just have to be on the watch all the time. The crops

look good all over and the weeds are trying to outgrow them. Hard time. The duet girls had a special with help of the audience. Sounded not bad. We missed those who were not with us. We need you all and so does God. What if your excuse going to be on Judgment Day? The question wasn’t answered as they misunderstood. “Who gave food to the angel”? The answer was Gideon. Judges 6: 19, 20, 21. It is interesting what the angel did. Read it again and think about it. Do angels eat? Question for this week is “Who told angels to wash their feet”? Gen. 19: 1. Our prayer list was: Vonita Green, Bonnie Hardwick, Ed Crabtree, Robert Lawson, Susie Kiefer, Patty Baldes (she is recuperating at home) Ray Baldes, Garner family, Andy Ross, Grace Ross, Richard Pruiett of Eldred, Doug Meyers and our church family. Those who were not with us and our country. Our little towns need God’s help and

in some places a lot of God’s help. Remember time is given to everyone in the same measure. We all have 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 168 hours a week, 8760 hours a year, which gives us all 525,600 minutes or 31,536,000 seconds in a year. Time, talent and treasure, these tools are given to all of us to use. So we use them? How much more time do you need? Love never gives up, never loses faith, and is always hopeful, and endures forever. Walkerville Church will always love you, just as Jesus loves you. The church needs you, just as you need the church. A family who prays together, stays together. The church always prays together. Come and pray with them. Some day it will be too late and there will be no turning back. See you in church Sunday - the safest place to be in time of storms, weather storms or life storms. God is always near.

Eldred Baptist Church news As reported by Mary Eustace Don Carpenter – Interim Pastor Our service today, June 22 opened with heartfelt prayers for concerns and joys of our church family. We all are blessed and feel the Holy Spirit with us at our church service. Our sermon today was “The Fruit of True Repentance” Acts 2:42-47. Pastor Don started with events. Events in our lives transform us…and our lives are never the same because of them. “I am tired of living in a way that looks exactly like people who do not have the Holy Spirit of God living in them.” A quote by Francis Chan. Believe and keep on believing, obey

without making poorer those who give. It takes but a moment, but the memory of it sometimes lasts forever. No one is so rich or mighty that he can get along without it, and no one is so poor but that he can be made rich by it. A smile creates happiness in the home, fosters good will in business, and is the countersign of friendship. It brings rest to the weary, cheer to the discouraged, sunshine to the sad and is nature’s best antidote for trouble. Yet it cannot be bought, begged, borrowed or stolen, for it is something that is of no value to anyone until it is given away. Some people are too tired to give a smile. Give them one of yours, as no one needs a smile as much as he who has none to give. That’s all folks. Have a good week. Be a friend to someone in need this week

Dr. Kurella’s last day of practice with Illini Medical Associates, S.C. will be June 30, 2014. We wish him the very best with his retirement. Also, we want to thank him for his sacrifice, commitment, and nearly 40 years of dedicated service.

“Love all God’s creation, the whole and every grain of sand of it. Love every leaf, every ray of God’s light. Love the animals, love the plants, love everything. If you love everything, you will perceive the divine mystery in things. Once you perceive it, you will begin to comprehend it better every day. And you will come at last to love the whole world with an all-embracing love.”

Patients of Dr. Kurella certainly have a choice when it comes to their healthcare. Patients of Illini Medical can choose one of the other providers at the Jerseyville, Carrollton, and Hardin Offices. You can choose between:

Love All of God’s Creation

Love all of God’s creation, even that which seems unlovable. It’s easy to love kittens and bunnies and roses and rainbows. But, we have trouble when it comes to loving the cockroach or the rat, or the stench from the sewer. But, that stench is God’s creation too, microscopic life doing exactly what God created it to do. That doesn’t mean you want to bathe in it. The stench may be nature’s way of telling us to keep our distance. There may be good reasons why we are naturally repulsed by spiders, snakes and other venomous critters. But, that doesn’t mean we can’t love and admire them on some

level. Most of us will never have the same warm fuzzy feeling for a rat, a bat, or a snake that we will have for a kitten, but that doesn’t keep us from admiring the amazing way in which bats navigate their environment or the amazing way in which rats have managed to survive despite our best attempts to wipe them out. All of God’s creation is lovable, every grain of sand and every creepy crawly thing and every prickly plant and every form of radiation. We should strive to love all of God’s creation without bias.

GREENFIELD NEWS By MARY LOVE HAMMON

On June 8, 2014 Rev. Jerry Boutelle filled the pulpit at the Presbyterian Church in White Hall. He resided at the Presbyterian manse in Carrollton when he was Pastor of Carrollton and White Hall Presbyterian churches. For the two months that Dale Hammon was being cared for at the nursing home, Rev. Jerry and Deak Guis went with prayer and support. Dr. Jim Reid and Dr. Gary Turpin were Dale’s physicians. Rev. Jerry’s wife was a Surgical R.N. at Memorial Hospital in Springfield. She spent some of Saturday and Sundays in Carrollton and White Hall. Judy organized the Bell Choir. Twelve years ago the day before Thanksgiving Dale passed away. Chilton, Shirley and I were with him. Rev. Jerry came to our home in the night. Three different years I was in Jacksonville nursing homes (three months each year0 for therapy. Rev. Jerry created quite a stir with my nurses when he arrived in his red Packard convertible. Bob Morrow was usually donning his pink coat a footstep ahead of the good pastor. Cry out and shout for joy. Great is the Holy One in the midst of thee. Corey McCarn, Barbara Kahl’s grandson has suffered a shoulder injury from an ice hockey puck. This has been McCarn’s favorite sport since a lad of three. I am so sorry. Grandchildren are a blessing! Hanna Fields of Palmyra and Dani Fields of Jerseyville enjoyed a sleepover, dolls and dollhouses, games and barbeques, etc. for a few days at Grandma Debbi Fields and Aunt Beth Field’s here in Greenfield. Saturday, Clifton and Shirley Hammon of Sherman came to see me. As usual they went to Meehan’s for fresh watermelon, cantaloupe and strawberries. While there, Shirley was introduced to Amy Turpin hello to you, Amy sass! It poured rain when we went for our drive. How many of my readers remember side curtains and chains? The new Baptist parsonage on West Walnut is elegant. Today it is sporting a new shingled roof. Today, June 9 is my sister Melba

Ruthail Love Robinson’s 89th birthday. Many of these we have enjoyed together; I like to remember making boats of shingles and sailing in ditches of water that we named Helen’s Creek. There were times when we were in Colorado or the Robinsons would be in Greenfield - it would not be a birthday. One of us would buy a black forest cake or Dale would make his famous angel food cake, put candles on top and sing. Amelia Burger received numerous gardening supplies from a business drawing in Jacksonville - flower seeds, pots, soil, shovel, garden spade and gloves. The Burlington Northern Santa Fe railroad tracks run within two blocks of my sister Melba Love Robinson’s Fountain, Colo. home. Sometimes when we are talking on the telephone, I hear three short blasts an then three more, she and I call it “The Ole Moneymaker” as Dusty and Dick did. Thank you, Pat Garner for selecting two birthday cards - one for Barb Kahl and one for Amelia Burger. Mable Batty Cole and friend Sarah Flynn rode via Amtrak from Carlinville to Texas, where they were met by her great-niece, Phyllis and husband Larry Weatherford who opened a new quilting business. Mable said, “It was wonderful, you can’t imagine how good those two were to Sarah and me.” Mable has yo-yos ready to sew around a heart quilt top that she made while in Texas. My great-granddaughter did real well, as did the others, as did the others, at her dance recital held in Joliet. It is Friday, June 13, 2014. Full moon. This will occur again Friday, June 13, 2049. It’s Father’s Day. We always bought a dressy gray straw hat for my dad and Dale. For Clifton, I gave the gift that keeps on giving. Saturday, after Greg Woodkirk’s daughter Cara Mae’s wedding, Clifton and Shirley Hammon came by to give to me hugs and kisses. That’s the way Brenda Shields-Bishop signed her cards to me. ‘Til next time!

Hillview man faces myriad charges By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press A Hillview man faces a multitude of charges following an attempted traffic stop Friday evening. Christopher S. Donovan, 37, of Hillview was booked into Greene County Jail on June 21 on charges of Aggravated Driving Under the Influence of Alcohol, Felony Driving While Revoked, Fleeing and Attempting to Elude a Police Officer and Criminal Damage to

State Supported Property. According to Greene County Sheriff Rob McMillen, a Greene County Sheriff’s Deputy was patrolling near Hillview when he came across a large rock quarry type truck traveling on a road outside of Hillview. “The deputy, finding this suspicious, initiated a traffic stop on the truck and the driver refused to stop,” McMillen said. “The truck traveled to the residence of Donovan and came to a stop. The driver exited the

truck and the deputy recognized him to be Christopher Donovan.” The criminal damage to property charge stems from Donovan allegedly having damaged the rear seat video camera system in the squad car. Donovan was lodged in the Greene County Jail without bail due to the damages to the squad car and also to his multiple convictions for DUI and Driving While Revoked. Bond was later set on Donovan in the amount of $25,000.

A car fire in the middle of the Carrollton Square Monday afternoon destroyed a replica of the classic 1934 Ford owned by Jack Pyatt. Carrollton fire fighters doused the flames within minutes but the fire pretty much consumed the vehicle.

Car bursts into flames around Carrollton Square By CARMEN ENSINGER Greene Prairie Press Carrollton firefighters responded to a car fire on the square in Carrollton in front of the Carrollton Bank Monday afternoon, which destroyed a vehicle owned by Jack Pyatt of Carrollton. Pyatt, who has owned and operated Pyatt’s Auto Body in Carrollton for nearly 40 years, was out with his wife, Donna, around 3:15 p.m. Monday in a replica model of a 1934 Ford when the car burst into flames. “I don’t know what caused it,” Pyatt said. “We were just coming around the square and it started run-

ning a little rough and all of a sudden there was a little explosion and flames were everywhere and it was downhill from there.” Pyatt had just recently completed the car, spending more than nine months constructing the automobile. While he said there were a few parts of the car that might be salvageable, Pyatt said the car was pretty much completely destroyed. “It’s going to need a new engine, transmission and new body,” he said. “The main difference between an original and a replica is the body. The body of the replica is fiberglass whereas the original cars were made of steel. If it would have been origi-

nal, it could probably be salvaged.” The front half of the car was fully engulfed in flames with thick black smoke rising above the square before firefighters arrived on the scene from the firehouse located just around the corner. Firefighters had the fire extinguished within a few minutes. Pyatt said the car was insured but that doesn’t make the loss any easier to bear. “I still can’t believe it happened – it was just devastating,” he said. “I’ve never had anything like this happen to me before – it’s usually me who repairs other people’s cars this happens to.”

The Warner Bros.

effective immediately. Senate Bill 2934, sponsored by State Senator Steve Stadelman (D-Rockford) and Representative Walsh, makes one of Gov. Quinn’s initiatives to fund school safety improvements an official part of state statutes. Earlier this year the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) awarded $25 million for security improvements to public K – 12 schools. This legislation allows this school safety program to continue when funds are available and also adds private K – 12 schools, area vocational centers, regional safe schools and public colleges and universities to the list of eligible schools. The new law is effective immediately. “This is an excellent opportunity to improve local schools and the safety of our children,” Senator Stadelman said. “The safety grants are possible because of the work we have done to ensure that students in K-12 deserve a safe learning environment just like those in higher education.” “I’m proud to work with IEMA, local schools and area vocational schools to make sure when grants become available through IEMA, all entities are qualified and able to apply for these grants to make our schools safer and prepared for any emergency that may arise,” Representative Walsh said.

House Bill 5716, sponsored by State Representative Rich Brauer (R-Petersburg) and Senator Andy Manar (D-Bunker Hill), allows public school districts to make updated emergency and crisis plans available to first responders, teachers and administrators through electronic devices such as smart phones, tablets and laptops. The legislation is effective Jan. 1, 2015. Gov. Quinn is committed to ensuring school safety across Illinois. As part of his Illinois Jobs Now! construction program, he recently announced $25 million for more than 1,300 projects to enhance security at schools across Illinois. Following the deadly school shooting in Newtown, Conn. in December 2012, Gov. Quinn convened top experts from across the state for a School Safety Summit to develop short- and longterm actions to further strengthen school safety. The summit included school district organizations, law enforcement agencies and state agencies, including IEMA. The Governor also led the charge in passing legislation requiring all Illinois schools to hold active safety drills with local law enforcement to ensure they are as prepared as possible in the event of a shooting incident.

Hot country newcomer Frankie Ballard is on the road after scoring his first #1 smash with the topselling single “Helluva Life.” Ballard will be coming through White Hall to shred the stage at the White Hall Lions Club Homecoming on July 5, and will be playing many fan favorites from his new album, “Sunshine & Whiskey.” “I am all about touring," Ballard said. “My whole objective is to make the best music possible and take it to the people.”

Governor Pat Quinn recently visited RESA Middle School in Rockford to sign three new pieces of legislation that help increase safety, ensure crisis planning and provide security improvements at all Illinois schools. These actions are part of Gov. Quinn’s agenda to provide a safe learning environment for all Illinois students. “Nothing is more important than keeping our classrooms safe,” Gov. Quinn said. “Preparation and knowledge are part of that curriculum – preparing for emergencies we hope will never occur, and knowing what to do if confronted with a crisis.” “Parents need to have confidence that their children will be safe throughout the school day and kids should be able to focus solely on their studies,” State Schools Superintendent Christopher A. Koch said. “These new laws provide the impetus and resources to make schools safer.” Senate Bill 2710, sponsored by State Senator Bill Cunningham (D-Chicago) and State Representative Lawrence M. Walsh Jr. (D-Elwood), extends a key school safety measure that currently covers public schools to the state’s approximately 1,800 private schools. A law proposed and signed by Governor Quinn last year requires all school districts to conduct an annual safety drill, in conjunction with law enforcement officials, which prepares students for potential shooting situations. That law requires public school districts to do an annual review in light of that drill of each school’s emergency and crisis plans and procedures. Senate Bill 2710 requires that private schools conduct that same annual review of their crisis plans to better protect the 300,000 private school students in Illinois. The legislation is

Area residents will have the opportunity to learn basic principles of safe hunting at a free Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) hunter safety course on July 18 and 19, 2014 at the American Legion, 300 Veterans Memorial Parkway in Jerseyville. This class is from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. on the July 18 and from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on the July 19. A 1996 state law requires that all hunters born on or after Jan. 1, 1980, successfully complete the hunter education course before they can receive their first hunting license. Participants completing the hunter education course receive a Hunter Education Certification card verifying that they have passed the course of instruction. This will be an excellent opportunity for hunters who need the course in order to qualify for their hunting license, Neil Waters, Volunteer Services Coordinator said. The minimum ten-hour course includes instruction in firearms safety, hunter ethics, treestand safety, safe firearm handling, first aid, survival techniques, laws and regulations. Pre-registration is required and can be done by calling 618-4621181 extension 128.

Downstate Classic Greene County hosted the three-year-olds Downstate Classic Harness races on Tuesday, June 17. For beginners to the harness racing circuit, it may seem like just another race, but for lifetime fans and horse owners, the Downstate Classic is a big deal. The purses are much higher and that tends to build some excitement. Trainer/Driver Tom Simmons of Springfield had a great night winning three of the eight races held. Two of those were Downstate Classic races. Simmons is at the helm of race five winner SISTER PIPPA who took the inside rail down the home stretch for the victory.

The Greenfield Library Board held their meeting on Mon. June 16 at the library.

IDNR launches 'State Parks, IDNR announces schedule of waterfowl Great Parks' blind site drawings July 26, 27 initiative Waterfowl hunters are encouraged to mark their calendars for upcoming waterfowl hunting blind site random drawings to be held at several public hunting areas in Illinois this summer. Duck and goose hunters must register in person for waterfowl blind site drawings and must be present at the drawing – held at each location designated below immediately after the registration period – to claim their blind sites. Mail-in registrations are not accepted. Blind allocations for these sites are good for one year. To participate in a drawing, applicants must present a 2013 or 2014 Illinois hunting or sportsman combination license and a 2013 or 2014 Illinois Migratory Waterfowl Stamp at the time they register, unless exempted by law. Applicants must be at least 16 years old by the date of the drawing. Applicants needing to purchase new licenses and stamps should do so prior to the drawing. Most blind drawing locations will not have license sales available. Licenses and stamps are available at any DNR Direct license and permit vendor, through the IDNR website at www.dnr.illinois.gov, or by calling 1-888-6-PERMIT (1-888-6737648). Registrants are no longer required to possess a valid Illinois Firearm Owner’s Identification (FOID) card from the Illinois State Police to participate in blind drawings.

Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) Director Marc Miller launched on June 13 a new initiative aimed at using dedicated funds to make Illinois state parks great parks. During the last year, the agency has been using new sustainability funds to hire more staff and replace aging maintenance equipment at state parks. The “State Parks, Great Parks” initiative will continue the effort to rebuild the Illinois State Park System this summer with infrastructure improvements throughout Illinois. “We were entrusted with new revenues to improve our parks through the passage of the sustainability bill in late 2012, and we are using those funds for the purposes for which they were intended. Illinois has wonderful natural beauty, and this early investment is the beginning of making our state parks great parks,” said IDNR Director Marc Miller. Visitors at many state parks are beginning to see visual signs of improvements, including upgrades to campground areas with the addition of new fire rings, picnic shelters and park restroom structures. Visitors at many sites are also seeing improved trail maintenance. In an ongoing effort to improve online customer service, the IDNR has made several enhancements to its website, including today’s launch of the “State Parks, Great Parks portal,” which will allow visitors to more easily find information on state parks or outdoor activities, browse through new multi-media features, or reserve a campsite. The new portal page can be found at www.dnr.illinois.gov/recreation. In 2012, Illinois lawmakers approved a $2 fee increase on Illinois vehicle registrations which generates nearly $20 million annually in dedicated revenue for Illinois State Parks. The IDNR is using these much needed funds to begin to clear hundreds of millions of dollars in backlogged maintenance projects at state parks.

Grace Center here for the elderly By Carmen ensinger Greene Prairie Press As more and more government programs get cut or receive less funding, the one group which seems to be affected the most is the elderly. It is with this in mind that Grace Center in Roodhouse was founded five years ago. Grace Center is operated under Saving Grace Ministries, a nonprofit organization, and is located on Palm Street in what used to be the old Methodist Church. “If you have a couple of kids, the government will give you free housing, free food, free medical and a free cell phone,” Grace Ministries founder Ken Wise said. “But our government tends to forget our elderly. There are elderly people out there trying to survive on $500 a month and that just isn’t going to cut it. I had an elderly woman come up to me and say she only received $500 a month in Social Security and could only get $41 in food stamps. That’s just not right and I

believe we have a responsibility to take care of our seniors.” Wise said that for many it is a choice between buying food this month or their medicine. “They don’t have money for both and that is where we come in,” Wise said. “We feed 85 families a month through Grace Center, and I would say 75 percent of those people are elderly because we put our elderly first.” A food distribution truck comes once a month with a month’s supply of food. This food, is, in turn, distributed to those in need. “We are here first and foremost to help our seniors,” Wise said, “We distribute our food first to the seniors, second to the married couples with children who work and third to single parents who work.” If you don’t work – don’t bother coming to Grace Center looking for help. “We tend to penalize our people who do work because they can’t receive any help, even though they might not even make enough to

feed their family working two or three jobs,” Wise said. “However, if they don’t work, they receive all kinds of help. The system is just all backwards and it is not taking care of the ones it should be.” Grace Center also offers a free meal and concert the first Saturday of every month. It is able to offer these free meals and the meals throughout the year through the fundraising efforts which go on all year long. “Our Gospel group, Saved by Grace, singing at various churches or events and the money we raise we put right back into the center,” Wise said. “The other night we played a concert and were paid with 50 pounds of bass, so we will be having a fish fry one of these days.” This Saturday, however, Grace Center will be serving a pancake and sausage supper prior to its program and everyone is invited to attend. Free will donations are accepted and go right back into the center.

• Spice up your room with a DIY wall art project, such as this one from the Nesting Place blog. First, tape off rectangles with highquality painter’s tape. The shapes can be varying sizes and shapes to create an interesting wall effect. Apply your creativity to have the shapes fill your wall space. Remember, there are no rules, so at this point, get experimental and tape a design that looks appealing to you. After taping, choose a single paint color and trace the painter’s tape. For a bolder effect, pick two complementary colors and alternate tracing the rectangle shapes. Alternating colors will achieve a brighter, bolder look. Take into consideration what the room will be used for as that can help set the tone for the pattern and colors. Also be sure to let the paint dry enough so that it’s dry to touch before carefully removing it. Feeling inspired? Channel that creativity this summer by submitting your own home refresh project for under $100 and you could win $5,000 to put towards a home makeover. Visit www. ScotchBlue.com/homecontest to enter the “Home of ScotchBlue Painter’s Tape” contest by July 15, 2014 or learn more, and see official rules. You don’t need an enormous budget or a professional. With a bit of inspiration and the right tools, you can refresh any humdrum space in an afternoon.

Looking for an easy and inexpensive way to refresh your home this summer? With a little inspiration and work you can give your home a quick makeover within a limited budget. “From interior décor projects to a fresh coat of paint, there are plenty of ways to make a big impact in a room for under $100,” says Carmen De La Paz, 3M spokesperson and former host of HGTV’s “Hammer Heads.” With that in mind, De La Paz, an interior designer and DIY expert, has some tips to help inspire project ideas: • Refurbishing a home can be expensive and tiring. Don’t replace perfectly good furniture when there is no need. Instead, consider refreshing a tired chair, table or coat rack with a coat of paint. • Make a big impact by painting an accent wall in your home. Consider using complementary color to the palette of the space. Whether you want to enhance the size of a room, draw attention to a new furniture piece or just add a little flair, an accent wall is a simple way to make it happen. • Paint a fresh design element like a pattern or a stripe to change the look of a room. You don’t need to turn to a professional service for sharp, crisp paint lines. With a high quality painter’s tape, such as the new ScotchBlue Painter`s Tape with Advanced Edge-Lock Paint Line Protector, you can get super sharp paint lines. This tape provides edgeto-edge protection for improved paint bleed performance.

Carlinville Area Hospital participates in stroke program Carlinville Area Hospital is participating in the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association’s Get With The Guidelines®–Stroke program. The goal of the program is to improve the overall quality of care for stroke patients by improving acute stroke treatment and preventing future strokes and cardiovascular events. Get With The Guidelines–Stroke

“Carlinville Area Hospital is to be commended for its commitment to implementing standards of care and protocols for treating stroke patients.”

Lee H. Schwamm M.D. Chair of the Get With The Guidlines National Steering Committee was developed to help hospitals employ proven science-based treatment guidelines, including those developed by the American Stroke Association, American Heart Association and Brain Attack Coalition. These guidelines address acute stroke management, primary prevention of cardiovascular diseases, secondary prevention of strokes and the establishment of primary stroke centers. As a Get With The Guidelines– Stroke participating hospital, Carlinville Area Hospital is encouraged to develop a comprehensive system for providing rapid diagnosis and treatment of stroke when patients are admitted to the emergency department. This includes always being equipped to provide brain-imaging scans, making neurologists available to conduct patient evaluations and using clot-busting medications when appropriate. Carlinville Area Hospital is also

increasing its efforts to prevent secondary strokes through the aggressive use of medications such as statins and anti-platelets as indicated in the secondary stroke prevention guidelines. Other methods include the treatment of atrial fibrillation and atherosclerosis and management of smoking cessation, weight, exercise, diabetes and cholesterol. Through Get With The Guidelines– Stroke, the American Heart Association/ American Stroke Association provides Carlinville Area Hospital training and staffing recommendations, care maps, discharge protocols, standing orders, data-collection and measurement tools. The program also facilitates creating and sharing best practices among participating hospitals. “Carlinville Area Hospital is to be commended for its commitment to implementing standards of care and protocols for treating stroke patients,” said Lee H. Schwamm, M.D., chair of the Get With The Guidelines National Steering Committee and director of the TeleStroke and Acute Stroke Services at Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston. “The full implementation of acute care and secondary prevention recommendations and guidelines is a critical step in saving the lives and improving outcomes of stroke patients.” “The time is right for Carlinville Area Hospital to be focused on improving the quality of stroke care by implementing Get With The Guidelines–Stroke. The number of acute ischemic stroke patients eligible for treatment is expected to grow over the next decade due to increasing stroke incidence and a large aging population,” said Beth Stewart, Emergency Department Manager. According to the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association, stroke is one of the leading causes of death and serious, long-term disability in the United States. On average, someone suffers a stroke every 40 seconds; someone dies of a stroke every four minutes; and 795,000 people suffer a new or recurrent stroke each year.

Home Instead Senior Care raises money to help find cure for Alzheimer’s Home Instead Senior Care is planning a fundraising event to help find a cure for Alzheimer’s disease.

The River

Grafton Harbor boat tours and rentals each weekend this summer By BoB Crossen Greene Prairie Press Visitors in Grafton can reserve a spot on a cruise or paddle up and down the river in a rented boat with the Grafton Harbor this summer. Grafton Harbor began its boat tour and rental services last year with numerous offerings, but this year, Amanda Dufer, cruise director, said the business narrowed its options. Dufer said the cruises take place at 3 p.m. Friday, Saturday and Sunday each week in Grafton with the option for those interested in private parties to rent the boat. There are also sunset cruises on the second and fourth Saturdays each month. Last year themes including a shipwreck cruise and wine tasting cruise were offered, and Dufer said those will fall under the private party option. “It just turned out to be way more work than we could handle to do all those individual cruises like that,” Dufer said. “So we’ve kind of made it to where if you have a birthday party or if you have an idea for a specific kind of cruise, we’ll book your private cruise and help you accomplish that.”

She said the business is making a push for private cruises which have ranges in cost based on how many people take part in the cruise and the time of day. The regular one-hour tours offered throughout the weekend cost $18 for adults, $16 for seniors 63 and older, $9 for children ages 3 to 17 and $4.50 for infants. Dufer said staff on the boats talk occasionally about areas along the river while the cruise boat, Hakuna Matata, ferries the passengers on the waterway. She said passengers can bring any kind of food they would like onto the boat, but outside drinks will not be allowed as a cash bar is available for cruise-goers who will enjoy live music and dancing. In addition to cruises, patrons at Grafton Harbor can rent pontoon boats for a set number of hours which they can use to travel up the Illinois River and back. Dufer said the boat rentals are a popular destination for tourists in the summer, noting the boat offerings have been cut back from last year. “We’re only promoting our pontoon boats. We’ve had a little bit of mechanical problems with our runabout boats,” Dufer said, “but we have the pontoon rentals and they are going over really

well.” The pontoon boats have a capacity of 10 people with a twohour rate of $148, four-hour rate of $208 and eight-hour rate of $348. Dufer said those interested in either the boat rental or the cruises should call ahead to reserve a spot. Guaranteed reservations are available when using a VISA, Mastercard or Discover card to pay beforehand. For more information about the offerings, visit graftonharbor.net. To make a reservation call 618786-7678.

GRAFTON

Grafton is a picturesque small community nestled between the Illinois and Mississippi Rivers and the beautiful limestone bluffs that run the length of the National Scenic Byway (Rt. 100). Alan Solomon of the Chicago Tribune named the Great River Road, “one of the ten greatest drives in the nation.” The city is both beautiful and exciting place to visit. Tourists from far and near come to our charming historic river town to enjoy our wineries, a wide variety of dining establishments, our shops and our river view eating drinking spots. We encourage visitors to “Come for a Weekend and Stay for a Lifetime.” There’s fun for the whole family, Raging Rivers Water Park, Para sailing, Zip line, and cruises on the Hakuna Matata. Grafton is not only an exciting place to visit, it is also a great place to live. The quality and variety of real estate development is attracting a host of prospective buyers. Giving beautiful lots to people who build a home in Grafton Hills has generated national attention. Grafton is open. The Grafton ferry is open.

Lady Hawks prep for 2014-15 season

SAM ELLIott Greene Prairie Press The road to basketball success during the winter season begins with work put in during the summer months. That was the mindset surrounding the Carrollton High School girls basketball team as the Lady Hawks faced off against area teams during a two-day summer shootout Friday and Saturday at Illinois College's Bruner Center in Jacksonville. "Right now we're just getting our legs underneath us. We've had a long few months of not playing basketball," CHS head coach Brian Madson said. "It's going to be a little rusty at times, but we looked great at moments [Friday]." Madson is entering his second season leading the Lady Hawks, but this is his first full offseason with the team as Carrollton spent most of last summer with no girls basketball coach after not rehiring Geoff Driskill following the 2012-13 season. "Last year, I had two whole days with them over the summer," Madson said. "The biggest thing right now is starting to remember plays and that’s going to save us a lot of time when the season comes around. If we already have that foundation down, then we don’t need to spend those first two weeks putting in plays and all that." The summer emphasis is on experience and improvement rather than a win-loss record, but Carrollton hopes this winter brings plenty of wins after the 2013-14 season ended with the Lady Hawks 25-7 and Illinois' Class 1A runners-up. Patsy Coonrod is Carrollton's lone loss to graduation since last season, giving this year's team an experienced set of starters in Rachel Williams, Madison Mountain, Madison Struble, McKenzie Ruyle and Jessica Lake. Figuring out the Lady Hawks' rotation beyond those five is another item on Madson's summer to-do list. With some of his starters missing parts of the IC shootout due to other summer sports committments, the coach expects to get plenty of looks at his team's younger members. "We're going to be strong, that's for sure," he said. "I think we're going to be deep this year. Those younger girls are going to get a lot of playing time" selliott@campbellpublications.net
