Marketplace Mall Moves to New Location
Former Rite Aid Houses Expanded Store, Grand Opening July 12-13
Submitted
The Marketplace Mall in Middlefield recently announced it is moving to a new location.
A grand opening is scheduled for Friday, July 12, and Saturday, July 13, with a ribbon cutting at 4 p.m. July 12. Everyone is welcome.
“We are so excited about this new beginning,” said MM manager Maureen Foldesi, adding she and her husband, Frank Foldesi, have been working non-stop on the transition.
During the month of June, MM moved to 15596 W. High St., two
miles away from their previous location on Nauvoo Road. The new building used to house the former Rite Aid store.
“The new store has even more space for shopping and it’s all on one level – no more stairs,” Foldesi said.
Many of the current vendors moved with The Marketplace Mall to its new location and MM will continue to offer U-Haul rentals and service.
The store will feature a constantly-changing array of new, used, vintage and antique merchandise, Foldesi said.

Moody’s OKs Cardinal Schools Bond Rating
by Ann WiShArt Ann@kArlovecmediA com
Cardinal Schools has gained a rung on Moody’s Rating ladder, district Treasurer Terry Armstrong told the board of education June 26.
“I was hoping for two rungs, but that’s not typical. They did consider it,” he said. “They upgraded it because our balance has stayed pretty consistent.”
Armstrong provided a summary of Moody’s findings and the district’s actions, as well as an explanation of why the ratings are important.
“Bond rating is used to measure the creditworthiness of a bond issuance, which can directly impact the cost of borrowing for a school district,” he said. “We were upgraded to Baa2 from Baa3. Our goal, of course, is to continue moving upward and get in the good quality area (A1-A3) in the next two years.”
Cardinal, which draws students from Middlefield Village and Township, Huntsburg Township and Parkman Township, has seen its
enrollment fall, affecting its revenue and Moody’s Rating. The 20232024 enrollment was 702. The previous year, it was 754 and the year before that, it was 784, he said in a follow-up interview.
However, Armstrong told the board because of federal Elementary and Secondary School Relief funding following the COVID-19 pandemic, the district is on safer fiscal ground with a general fund surplus of about $1.3 million for the 2024-2025 school year.
In his summary, Armstrong noted he discussed the district’s work to right-size its facilities by closing Jordak Elementary School and lowering the number of staff, primarily through attrition.
Moody’s saw Cardinal’s low debt as a positive point, he said.
“We currently hold three debts. One is backed by the bond issue approved for the building at the time the middle school (now a K-6 building) which will be paid off completely in December, 2025,” he said

find at The Marketplace Mall,” she added.
More than 45 vendors will have space for what Foldesi calls their own “micro businesses.” Each booth is curated by a different individual, according to their interests.
For example, Dave Davis, aka Dave the Doorman, has one-of-akind pieces, such as repurposed antiques and functional items, by combining modern and industrial in his creations.
“You aren’t going to find unusual items like this in a big box store,” Foldesi said. “Dave is just one of the reasons it pays to shop small.”
Another vendor, Camille Walsh,
specializes in antique and vintage jewelry, and loves to share her many years of experience with customers while they search for the perfect ring or necklace, Foldesi said.
“All of our vendors bring something unique to the store,” she added. “We have a little bit of everything for everyone.”
The Marketplace Mall will expand its offerings with the addition of refrigerated units that can be leased to individual vendors.
“We’re hoping to attract some of the great local farmers to share their wares with us,” Foldesi said.
The store has also launched a new website, www.shopmiddlefield. com, as part of its expansion.

refinance the current debt, which has over a 5% interest rate. This will enable the district to potentially save upwards of a half a million dollars depending on the rate and terms,” Armstrong said in a follow-up interview.
Armstrong told the board the administration is working on the enrollment problem.
“There are things being done to attract kids to the district. If we can fix that, we could be an A rating in a few years,” he said, adding there are 297 school-aged children in the district who are attending charter schools, non-public schools or being home-schooled.
“It is our hope that declines have leveled off and our enrollment remains steady moving forward,” he said.

Pondering the Poor & Displaced
Over 100 million people forcibly have been displaced from their homes in the world. Conflict and violence followed by natural disasters and human rights violations factor in heavily, resulting in this staggering number of refugees.
I recently read an article about the lives of displaced persons in tent cities, where food and water are scarce, sanitation non-existent and disease threatens the health and welfare of the residents. It is something we know little about here in the USA. We are very blessed with personal freedom, a high standard of living, and many good options to enjoy our daily lives.
Of course, poverty is another reality affecting the poor in many develop ing countries. I personally have visited the impoverished villages and slums of India. It is a sobering sight of crowded conditions, inadequate housing and often a noxious smell resulting from garbage and poor sanitation. The resiliency of the human spirit is often on display, but suffering, sickness and discouragement lurk behind the scenes. The struggle of life is unrelenting and wearisome.
I had the privilege of meeting some destitute persons in India. One man was living under a tree near the railroad tracks of a major city. His scant clothes were just rags. His hair was long and tangled, tinted with the color of malnourishment. I sometimes stopped to give him a cup of tea and a bit of food. I told him Jesus loved him and tried to demonstrate he was not forgotten. His mind was clouded after years of homelessness with little nutrition.
By Roger Kruse
After several months I decided to act. I visited a Mother Theresa Sisters of Charity home on the outskirts of the city and made arrangements to bring the destitute man there to be cared for. It was quite a memorable experience of transporting him by a cycle rickshaw to his new home.
Upon arrival, he was positioned next to a water well, given a hair and beard cut followed by his first bath in years. The kindly sister called him “Tata,” an endearing term translated “Grandpa.”
Mother Theresa was a shining light of compassion and help to the destitute and dying in Calcutta (now named Kolkata). I visited the place where she served the needs of so many homeless persons overlooked and ignored. She reminded us all that kindness, mercy and helpfulness are pleasing to God.
The Bible has plenty to say about upholding the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Whoever is kind to the needy, we are told, honors God. We are exhorted to be generous and ready to give. Sharing the blessings we have received is an important part of demonstrating a faith that is authentic and approved by God. The abundance of good things that we enjoy ought not be just for ourselves. The Lord is pleased when we reach out with compassion and offer practical support to those less fortunate.
After dressing him in clean clothes, he was given a plate of rice and vegetables that he had no idea what to do with. Because Indian food is most often eaten with the hand, the sister put his fingers in the food and brought it up to his mouth. Eventually, the memory of eating was rekindled. My friend, Tata, lived out his days under the care of those kindly Sisters of Charity. He was surely touched by the loving hands of Jesus.
May God help you and me to be among those who remember the poor and displaced people in our world. With love in our hearts and a determination to reach out, we can surely find ways to make a difference. Caring leads to giving and serving. By so doing, we discover the better side of our own humanity.
Roger Kruse is still learning how to live out the words of Jesus that “it is more blessed to give than to receive.”
