THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Where seniors’ moments are pleasing

T

here comes a time in many North Shore lives when one has to trade a home brimming with memories for a sprawling facility called senior living, retirement community or some other appellation. It can unnerve those ensconced in their golden years to make such a dramatic change.

Fortunately, the options in the area are inviting, making the transition smooth for those in their 70s and above. Most offer interesting speakers, card games and more to keep their residents engaged. Bill McLean examines a few of these living choices in these pages.

The life of a hockey mom sometimes makes women yearn for the peace of a senior living facility. Getting to practices and games that can start at 7 a.m. or 7 p.m., driving to Wisconsin with one player while another child needs to get to Chicago a few hours later, organizing and dragging bags of equipment that smell up a car, and tying endless skates make these women made famous by Sarah Palin a group worthy of praise (hockey dads deserve plenty of credit too). We take a look at how they do it in these pages.

Hockey moms are unsung heroes — and so are school crossing guards. Like the cliché of the postman, the crossing guards deliver students to safety in rain, sleet, and snow. For little pay they try to rein in rambunctious kids before

they run across a busy street. Angelika Labno writes about these essential workers inside.

Also, in the nostra culpa section, we are sorry that we did not mention three top-notch outfits — the Glencoe Historical Society, the Kenilworth Historical Society and the Wilmette Historical Society — in our recent look at the non-profits. In the same story, the Highland Park Historical Society received a grant from the National Historical Publications & Records Commission, not the Winnetka Historical Society. And in a separate issue, in a historic preservation piece we said Roemer Park is on Sheridan Road in Wilmette. It’s not. It’s off Old Glenview Road. And we misspelled Bob Burell’s last name in the story last week on the Society of Colonial Wars in Illinois (though it was correct in the photo). And Charleton Heston lived in Wilmette, not Winnetka. Finally, we added about 9,000 people to Lake Bluff’s population in a feature last week — the actual count is 5,722.

Nostra maxima culpa.

Even seniors-in-waiting have senior moments.

Fitness Center Coordinator Benny Rodriguez works with resident Wilma Western at Lake Forest Place.

photography by j.geil

Golden years ■ by bill mclean Paisley Valentincic is decades away from possibly having to think about her senior living options.

But the Lake Bluff resident’s age didn’t stop her from sharing a preference last week.

“I want to move in here,” Valentincic said of Lake Forest Place, a Presbyterian Homes retirement community located on 49 acres in a country-like setting. “It’s a beautiful place and a fabulous organization. There’s a lot going on here.”

Valentincic should know. After all, she’s been director of marketing at Lake Forest Place for 18 years. Of the 268 independent housing units at Pembridge Drive in Lake Forest, 100 are cottage homes each with a two-car garage, basement and kitchen.

The other 168 are one- and two-bedroom apartments.

Nearly 93 percent of the units are occupied.

“Do you know what I hear a lot from residents?” Valentincic said. “I hear, ‘I wish I had moved in five years ago.’ ” There are generally five living options for seniors on the North Shore, four of which require a move: independent living, assisted living, skilled nursing care, and memory care. It can be an emotional and overwhelming decision for seniors and their adult children. Among the senior living communities along the North Shore, including Lake Forest Place, that see to it that such a transition is as seamless as possible are Mather Place of Wilmette, Arbor Ridge Senior Living of Highland Park and ManorCare Health Care services in Northbrook and Highland Park.

In fact, the option that doesn’t involve a Mayflower truck is for many the ideal one — staying put.

“We provide quality in-home care for seniors who would rather live out their years at the home they have known and loved,” said Loryn Kogan, Vice President of Client Care Services and Development at Home Care Assistance (HCA) in Kenilworth. “We get calls from seniors themselves, spouses of seniors and children of seniors. Caring for an ill spouse can be stressful, and the children who contact us are concerned about the ability of their parents to live on their own at home.”

It doesn’t take long for Mather Place residents to feel like they never sold their houses and moved. It’s a boutique lifestyle residence, with 137 units (88-90 percent occupied) for adults “62 and better.”

Linda Nikiforak, a resident advisor at Mather Place, has worked in the senior living industry for 10 years in three markets.

“We’re smaller than others, not as formal,” Nikiforak said. “It’s warm and friendly, and our residents at Mather Place are positive, upbeat and welcoming. We support residential activities like brain aerobics, group exercises, lecture series and performances from musicians. But what’s crucial is the socializing aspect; studies show that socializing is as beneficial to a person’s health as exercising is.”

Arbor Ridge Senior Living is in its infancy (four months old). The licensed assisted living and dementia care rental community features private and semi-private suites, with 30 of its 80 units occupied.

Its executive director, Sara Sanderman, is also a licensed social worker.

“That’s rare,” said Lisa Stanley, a community liaison at Arbor Ridge. “There’s a wonderful team in place here, and (we) address nutrition, reflection, rehab and fall prevention. All of our residents are given a fall-risk assessment.”

Activities at senior living communities

Peter Connor orders lunch at Lake Forest Place, which offers nearly 270 cottages and apartments.

Senior living options on North Shore offer quality lifestyle and comprehensive care

create lasting memories. Lake Forest Place residents who don’t feel like heading to Wrigley Field for a Cubs-Brewers game can take a field trip to Milwaukee to check out an art museum. They’ve also enjoyed concerts at Ravinia Festival and performances at Lyric Opera of Chicago and Marriott Theatre in Lincolnshire.

“Clubs are also popular here,” Valentincic said. “We have high resident involvement in book, garden and investments clubs.

“And our food — Lake Forest Place is well-known for its exquisite dining service.”

David and Medora Sharpe haven’t tasted much of Lake Forest Place’s wealth of offerings. But that’s because they moved to the community only two months ago from Williamsburg, Va. One of their three children lives in Lake Forest, and all of their nine grandchildren reside in Illinois.

The Sharpes, who live in a cottage house, planned to attend a fitness center orientation at LFP earlier this month.

“It’s wonderful here; it has far exceeded our expectations,” David Sharpe said.

“Everybody has been so kind. We wanted to move a bookcase to our basement, and two men came here to help us in less than an hour.”

Added his wife: “It’s an easy lifestyle.

We’re thrilled.”

The primary goal for the professionals at the North Shore’s ManorCare facilities, meanwhile, is to help the residents return home. The ManorCare in Northbrook specializes in pulmonary and cardiac rehab, while the one in Highland Park focuses on dialysis and renal management.

ManorCare partners with NorthShore University HealthSystem.

“We’re about transitional living,” said Tam Wagner, an administrator at ManorCare-Highland Park. “The majority of our residents are short-term rehab

patients.”

Laurie Barbini is the admissions coordinator at ManorCare-Northbrook, a facility with 140 units. It provides skilled nurses for short-term, sub-acute rehab and longterm residents.

“We can also provide telemetry, something we started about six months ago,” Barbini said of the technology that monitors the heart of residents who are at risk of abnormal heart activity.

The costs of units at retirement communities and skilled nursing/rehab facilities, as well as home-care assistance, vary widely, depending on a number of factors including type of housing and a senior’s health. The entrance fee for a cottage house at Lake Forest Place starts at $491,875, and the monthly service fee starts at $4,415. A private suite at Arbor Ridge costs $4,990 per month.

The elders of Okinawa live longer and healthier than any other people in the world. Home Care Assistance’s “Balanced Care Method” is based on the scientifically studied lifestyle choices of the residents who live on one of Japan’s islands.

The method promotes smart lifestyle choices and it covers nutrition, socialization, physical and mental stimulation and sense of purpose.

“We train our high-caliber caregivers to work with our clients each day using the method,” said HCA’s Kogan. “Our focus is on everyday quality of life.”

Each day Valentincic notices something special at Lake Forest Place.

“What makes me proud is seeing people who are genuinely excited and happy to be here,” she said. “A support system is in place, and they’re making new friends.” ■

Missy Kedzior of Winnetka thought her first day as a hockey mom would also be her last.

Her son Miles was 6 when she attempted to help him put on his cumbersome gear at an ice arena.

“I’ll never forget that day,” Kedzior recalled. “I had to take my coat off because I was sweating to death trying to get him ready. I remember looking at another mom and saying, ‘How do you do this?’ Miles was getting irritable and I was getting stressed; it took me about 25 minutes to get all that stuff on him.

“I saw a coach come around, and thankfully he helped me tighten my son’s skates, or maybe he helped me snap his helmet on.”

Miles Kedzior is 10 now and hockey is his favorite sport. He was encouraged to give lacrosse and golf a try but dismissed them as being too slow.

“Miles loves hockey,” said Missy, whose husband Brett played hockey at Loyola Academy, Washington (Mo.) University and Harvard. “I love it too and I love being a hockey mom, even though it can be timeconsuming. It’s amazing to me that there are moms out there with three kids who play hockey.”

Jennifer Mower of Lake Forest has three kids who play hockey. Trevor, 10, is a forward; Caroline, 9, is a goaltender/defenseman; and Alexandra, 7, is a wing.

“It’s hectic sometimes,” admitted the hockey mom, a 1986 Lake Forest High School graduate who returned to Lake Forest nine years ago with her husband Chapin. “But it’s a fun, fast sport. It’s also a good team sport, and through it my kids have developed confidence and my husband

and I have found great friends.”

Soccer moms might still outnumber hockey moms along the North Shore, but that gap should narrow significantly now that practically everybody in Chicagoland is talking about the Blackhawks and their best start in National Hockey League history. But what won’t change is the number of demands hockey moms must face and manage, from lugging what seems to be

“You know you’re near a hockey rink when you arrive at a parking lot, and what you see is SUV after SUV after SUV. You need a vehicle like that because some hockey bags are as big as some cars.” | Lucy Putlak a ton of equipment from the garage door to a vehicle to car trips for way-too-early morning practices. Then there’s the odor of post-game hockey gear, as well as seasons that typically begin in September and end in early March — unless, of course, the family opts for spring hockey. moms >> page 15

What’s cooking for Rosenberg?

Acquiring and editing books ■ by

katie rose mceneely

Dan Rosenberg is an editorial director at Harvard Common Press, an independent publishing company that distributes highquality cookbooks and parenting books. He lives in Highland Park.

Reading: Right now I’m reading “The Collected Stories of Carson McCullers.”

She’s a Southern woman writer—“The Heart is a Lonely Hunter” was her most famous book. I’m also reading “The Big Burn” (by Timothy Egan) which is about Teddy Roosevelt and forest management in the West. It’s interesting because all the Western senators and congressmen were in the pocket of the big timber companies, and it’s impressive how hard Roosevelt had to fight to start the national forests system.

Listening: I listen to about 50 percent proportions of public radio and sports talk radio.

Watching: I’m watching “Downton Abbey” like everyone else — I’m behind and I have to catch up. Beyond that, I watch “Animal Planet” with my kids.

Following: I try to keep track of what people are eating. That’s partially trends in restaurants, but particularly what people are cooking at home — if people are cooking at home, if they use cookbooks. I try to keep an eye out for trends and fads in healthy eating — some of the more recent ones are Paleo, vegan, and gluten free.

I’m also looking for the next trend. For example, what Baby Boomers are doing for heart-healthy eating. I don’t participate in many food trends myself, but it’s my job to

keep track of what other people are doing.

Activity: I’m a divorced father of two kids, so I spend a lot of time doing activities with them — I’ve been a soccer coach for both my son and my daughter, basically encouraging them in artistic activities and sports activities. That’s my main extracurricular from my job.

My job is two things primarily: one is acquisitions, or acquiring books from authors and agents. Sometimes we have an idea, and we find an author to write about it. One of the major changes in cookbook publishing in the past 10 years is that there used to be a fairly small list of newspaper and magazine writers that we looked to. The food blogosphere has changed all that — I spend a lot of time following the blogs and looking for good cooks, creative writers and photographers. That’s about half the job; the other half is editing and shaping the book.

Eating: I’m editing a Panini cookbook and I just got a Panini press, so I’m experimenting with that. Trend-wise, I’m always on the lookout for books that cook well but quickly. My children are pretty liberal eaters, so they’re good taste-testers.

Favorite Mistake: A mistake I made early in my life was thinking I wanted to be an academic. It took me a while to realize I didn’t want to do research on the same subject for three, five, ten years at a time.

That led me look for careers where different things cross your desk each day, which led me to book editing. Sort of a self-discovery mistake. ■

Ubiquitous crossing guards are unsung heroes of school days

Daniel Bunning

Kyle Rivest helps two more children safely cross the street at Elm Place Middle School in Highland Park.

photography by j.geil ■ by

angelika labno

It is 2:45 p.m. on a Friday at the bustling intersection of Elm Place and Sheridan Road in Highland Park — and it is a scene in dire need of direction.

A popping sound produces a cloud of smoke. As soon as it clears, the firecracker culprits are nowhere to be found — only echoes of their laughter confirm their deed.

Boisterous boys dart into the street without a second thought, ecstatic to have their weekend begin. Hoards of children gather at every corner, respectfully awaiting a figure clad in neon orange who is waving around a red stop sign.

“I like to stay invisible, even though I have this bright orange suit,” said Kyle Rivest, who commands the aforementioned post.

Crossing guards have long been hailed as the unsung heroes of their towns. In 2005, Illinois implemented a day of appreciation to these unknown yet ubiquitous protectors, which is celebrated on May 1.

“They take it very seriously. We couldn’t function without them.” | Katie Sweeny On the North Shore, the job is considered a uniformed civilian position, and most are employed directly by the town’s police/public safety department.

They work two to three hours a day, split between morning and afternoon shifts, and the pay falls between $14-$19 an hour.

Glencoe’s Public Safety Department supplies guards with rain and winter gear.

“It is an official job, and they take it very seriously,” said Katie Sweeny from Glencoe’s Public Safety. “We couldn’t function without them.”

The most common requirements for crossing guards are a high school diploma

or GED, a valid driver’s license and a clean criminal record. Sufficient hearing is needed for sirens and alarms, and a recent job posting for a position in Highland Park outlined vision specifications: excellent vision, color vision, peripheral vision and depth perception.

Beyond directing the masses, a guard has civil responsibilities. He or she must think quickly and possess good judgment in emergency situations. As an extra set of eyes and hands, guards help out at scenes of accidents when necessary, monitor vehicles parked in permit or restricted zones, and even report illegal activity.

“I’ve seen some gang stuff,” said Rivest, adding that her work territory has been vandalized before. “It makes me more sad than uncomfortable.”

Crossing guards face a number of hazards. Besides handling inclement weather (which has been especially bad the past few weeks), they stand in busy intersections so much that they could be struck by a vehicle.

Michael Volling, the chief of Glencoe’s Public Safety department, constantly strives to make travel routes safer. He conducts yearly reviews of the crossings and re-routes them if they are thought to be unsafe.

“Our No. 1 priority is the safety of the children,” said Volling.

For Rivest, who has been a crossing guard for more than two decades, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

Although it sometimes feels like she is “herding cats,” she praises the kids on how good, smart and funny they can be.

“I have a special place for them, and I fall in love with them every year,” she says.

She handles the frigid conditions with grace, stating, “It’s only an hour and a half. You should be able to handle anything in that amount of time.”

She doesn’t bother with an umbrella during rain, but says wind is a killer.

However, on the sunny days when people are stuck indoors, she counts herself lucky.

“In some ways, I’ve got the world by the tail,” Rivest said, smiling. “It’s just hard to explain that to myself when I’m standing to my knees in snow.” ■

LFA’s Bunning overcomes health issue to make splash as singer, soccer player ■ by

angelika labno

Often the best a new kid in school can hope for is an easy, quiet transition.

But when Daniel Bunning transferred to Lake Forest Academy from Lake Forest High School his sophomore year, he made a huge splash. Instead of blending into the crowd, he took the stage at a school assembly and sang with the school’s student rock band, Co-ax.

“I didn’t know anyone but a classmate from soccer,” Bunning said. “After singing in front of the school, I started to get to know people.”

Stephen Ryder, French teacher and head of Co-ax, heard about Bunning’s vocal talents before he came to the school, so he knew he wanted him on board. The rockoriented band performs at school functions, such as school meetings. Bunning, who loves the Beatles, Queen and Rush, fits in seamlessly.

“His tryout in front of the current band members was simply spectacular, so he passed his audition with flying colors,” said Ryder, who also praises Bunning’s vocal techniques and onstage confidence. “His rendition of (Bruce) Springsteen’s ‘Born to Run’ at our next performance will be truly something to behold.”

There is one unique hurdle Bunning has had to overcome, and that is being diagnosed with eosinophilic esophagitis — an inflammation of the esophagus — in fifth grade. He describes it as asthma in the esophagus, but rather than air, food can’t get through, as certain foods will inflame it.

Because of the difficulty to eat, Bunning eats through a hole in his stomach. He’s coped with it for so long, however, that he views it as an asset rather than a struggle.

“I’m able to accomplish so much because of the amazing and talented people around me,” he said. “This school gives me an opportunity to make dreams a reality.”

The flexible scheduling and free periods at LFA prompted Bunning to transfer, allowing him to focus on music and his

other passion, soccer. He stumbled into music somewhat by chance in seventh grade and picked up soccer as a youngster.

During a soccer match, a player kicked through Bunning’s leg, breaking his fibula and tibia. In trying to keep morale up during his six-month recovery, he picked up singing and piano as a hobby. He played by ear, slowly learning chords, but didn’t get serious about music until recently.

Bunning is taking music theory with Timothy Plambeck despite being warned about the difficulty of the course — and it is now his favorite.

“I’ve sang my whole life, but I didn’t think anything of it until I tried to make something of it, and now I’m really starting to apply it,” said Bunning, adding that

“This school gives me an opportunity to make dreams a reality.” | Daniel Bunning he is catching up with the piano thanks to learning how to read sheet music at LFA. Despite an injury that would make many reconsider the sport, Bunning bounced right back into soccer after recovery. He made LFA’s team and played as a right midfielder last season. He said it’s been a good challenge to be surrounded by many amazing players who share his passion and excitement for the game, even if they are just playing pick-up games in the off-season.

“Not only did Daniel jump right in to his starter position as a sophomore on a team with highly skilled, veteran players, but he did everything the right way,” said soccer coach Paul Makovec. “He is extremely talented and humble, he works hard, and he has a desire to get better. He has overcome hurdles to get where he is, and I don’t think we’ve seen the best of him yet.” ■

Wilmette’s Wilson recalls assessing bomb damage, more in Korean War ■ by angelika labno The end of World War II should have brought upon a lengthy period of peace.

Instead, unrest was mounting in a Korea divided by a World War II agreement, and America decided to lend its troops, providing over 80% of the international soldiers.

President Harry Truman recalled many veterans who thought they had already paid their dues — and a little more.

In 1949, Stuart Wilson from Crete, Neb., was just finishing up a year of law school at Ohio State University. He could have stayed in school and deferred for another two years, but he knew it didn’t feel right.

“I didn’t think it was fair for the men who had already done so much,” he said.

“I thought it was time I did something.”

He decided to enlist in the Air Force.

After pre-flight exercises, Wilson began basic training in Texas in December, 1950, flying a T-6. In December 1951, an hour after he graduated training in Oklahoma, he married Carol, whom he met at Ohio State. After about 100 hours of flying time, he was sent to Japan in November, 1952.

The aircraft commander taught Wilson how to land almost immediately, and Wilson made almost all the landings during his time in Japan. He flew 28 missions that were divided by three types: bomb damage assessment over North Korea; sea lane surveillance, which was watching over the Russian coast for naval maneuvers that might supply North Korea, and monthly observation of a naval base between Kamchatka and the Russian mainland. The second lieutenant (later bumped up to first lieutenant) eventually took over the training of new crews on combat procedures.

His fondest memory is one of courage and camaraderie, which he experienced during his first combat mission over North Korea on Dec. 26. While he was on deck for radio calls, a guy called in asking for “Joe.” In enemy territory, Wilson explains, you don’t identify yourself — but the man explained

his intent. He said that he was shot down on Christmas Eve and had only five seconds to call for help before bailing out, and this “Joe” was adroit enough to track him down and get a helicopter to pick him up. Sure enough, Joe got on the radio, and the two had an exchange that included a promise for a case of Scotch back at the base.

“That impressed me because this was on Christmas Eve and a day later he was flying again,” Wilson said.

He stayed in the Air Force until December, 1954. For his service, Wilson was awarded an Air Medal, UN Service Medal, National Defense Service Medal and a Korean Service Medal. He jumped back into law school the following month.

Even before graduating, he landed a job with United Airlines in Chicago, starting in a management program before switching to labor relations. He then took labor relations positions in Iowa and Rhode Island and found his way back to Chicago at R.R. Donnelley, the biggest printer in the world at the time. He switched to private practice and moved to Wilmette in 1970, where he has lived ever since. His last position before retiring was a labor relations manager at the Management Association of Illinois.

Wilson, who turned 85 on Feb. 13, is actively involved with a group of veterans who meet at Wilmette Public Library. He is also in the process of writing his experiences in the Air Force for his grandchildren. He and Carol have three children, a daughter in Chicago and a son and daughter in Virginia, and they celebrated 61 years of marriage last December.

“It’s been worth every bit of it,” he said.

Wilson flew more combat missions than any pilot in his squadron, and he counts himself a lucky pilot. Despite the dangers, he said he always had a cot to lay his head every night, and meals of his choice.

“It was an easy life compared to what it was like for the guys on the ground,” he said. ■

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Jennifer Mower watches a game last Friday at the Winter Club, where her three children — Trevor, Caroline and Alexandra — play hockey.

moms >> from 10

“Most of the hockey moms I know are low-key,” Kedzior said. “But there was a time at a game when I heard myself yelling and I immediately said, ‘Was that me yelling?’ I get a little excited, a little nervous, a little anxious.”

Perhaps the most famous hockey mom to date is 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin, who called herself an “average hockey mom” at her party’s national convention and added, “You know what they say the difference is between a hockey mom and a pit bull? Lipstick!”

Highland Park hockey mom Lucy Putlak could relate.

“Hockey moms — we’re a different breed compared to moms of other sports,” said Putlak, whose son Zak, a Highland Park High School senior, has been an avid puckster for 12 years. “It’s nothing for us to get in a car and drive our kids to St. Louis for a tournament. When parents complain about how much they have to drive their kids to local sporting events, I laugh.

“We’re strong, committed people, willing to drive wherever and whenever.”

Among the local ice arenas are Hot Shot in Lake Bluff, Centennial Park in Highland Park, Winter Club (outdoors) in Lake Forest and Glacier in Vernon Hills.

Rinks at Lake Forest College and Lake

Forest Academy are also used, and many hockey moms transport their Patrick Kane and Jonathan Toews wannabes to a rink in Pleasant Prairie, Wis. Putlak recently steered her Ford Flex from Highland Park to Crystal Lake twice in one week to watch her son play for HP’s Giants.

“You know you’re near a hockey rink when you arrive at a parking lot, and what you see is SUV after SUV after SUV,” said Putlak, whose daughter Isabel played hockey before entering HPHS last fall. “You need a vehicle like that because some hockey bags are as big as some cars.”

In Mower’s mind is a hockey memory, involving her son, which will stick around for a while. Trevor was playing in a Squirt game for the Polar Bears at the Winter Club last month, when one of his teammates — a first-year player — scored his first goal of the season.

“All that mattered to the rest of the team that day was to see the new player score,” Jennifer Mower said. “And when he did, they all went flying toward him to congratulate him.

“Every year,” she added, “I’ll be with hockey parents and we’ll say, ‘No spring hockey; we need a break.’ But every year we all cave in and let our kids play for a couple more months.” ■

Pritzker weds love of military, books into rare type of library

■ by david sweet Across Michigan Avenue from the Jay Pritzker Pavilion sits another venue of the same surname. Though not as wellknown as its Millennium Park neighbor, the Pritzker Military Library does offer a unique benefit: Civilians in a big city can learn about the military and its history, whereas libraries of the type are most often situated behind barbed wire at army bases and naval stations.

“Given the fact that this country spends in excess of $600 billion a year on defense, there is certainly a need for the general public to have additional sources of information on military affairs,” explains Col. (IL) J.N. Pritzker, Army Reserve National Guard (retired), who founded the library that boasts a view of the concert facility named for his uncle. “How can we have a democracy with civilian control of the military if the civilians do not have knowledge and contact with the military? A society which divides its military and civilian communities into an us and them is going to have significant problems.”

An admittedly poor student in high school, Pritzker enlisted in the U.S. Army in 1974.

“I think the fact that most of the men in my father’s generation had some military service, as well as the fact that both of my grandfathers and some great uncles served in World War I, had significant influence,” he noted.

After being commissioned as a second lieutenant of infantry in 1979, he served at

Ft. Campbell, Ky. and at Kelly Barracks, Germany until release from active duty in 1985. He served in the Illinois Army National Guard for 15 years before retiring as a lieutenant colonel in 2 0 01, having received numerous medals during his military career and earning a college degree from Loyola University along the way.

“I met a lot of really great and interesting people in the military, some of whom I am in contact w ith today. It helped my education enormously.”

James N. Pritzker Aside from a love of the military, Pritzker

has enjoyed a passion for books from a young age.

“I am a bibliophile pack rat. I have been collecting books since even before I could read them,” he noted.

Housing books once owned by his parents, grandparents and great grandfather, the number became overwhelming.

Pritzker did not want to sell them or store them in a warehouse; instead, he opened a library.

The original concept was simple: Books would be made available to any professionally operated library, along with limited patrons on a limited basis. That changed quickly.

“I found there is market demand for pr og ra ms that discuss and inform the general public about military affairs,” Pritzker explained.

“This means we can provide insight and perspective beyond what might be provided by a government or g a n i z ation.”

More than 40,000 titles fill the library, with a focus illustration by barry blitt on 19th century and 20th

century military history. Original military posters can be perused. Magazines include Armchair General and World War II. Pritzker enjoys that the North Shore is home to two military installations (and one of his favorite breakfast spots, Walker Bros.

The Original Pancake House in Wilmette).

Though Fort Sheridan’s military purposes have been curtailed in the last few decades (Pritzker trained there as an ROTC cadet and as a captain), Naval Station Great Lakes has emerged as the largest recruit training facility for sailors in the country.

“I like the fact that I can still get on the base on a bicycle just by showing my retired I.D. card,” he noted.

Lest one think that Pritzker — now in his 60s — only focuses on military and books, he is also president and chief executive officer of a private investment company.

He also traveled to Antarctica four times as part of scientific missions.

“I was able to go with these scientists to witness the discovery of bacteria growing at the bottom of a frozen lake on a 2,000-foot glacier,” he noted, adding that on another expedition he helped collect meteorite specimens now housed at the Robert A. Pritzker Center for Metoritics and Polar Studies at the Field Museum in Chicago.

Which raises the question: What are the joys and challenges of being born with a famous name, one of the best known in Chicago?

“The name can sometimes open doors that might otherwise remain closed.

Sometimes the name causes more problems than benefits,” explained Pritzker.

“The attention sometimes attracts predatory interest.”

Military buffs and others don’t fit into that category. They salute the Pritzker name for offering vast insight into an important, underserved subject. ■

A Matter of Taste

Sanchez brings special guacamole recipe and more to new restaurant ■ by katie rose mceneely Freddy Sanchez is the executive chef of Taco Nano, a new restaurant in Northfield.

Sanchez is also the executive chef at The Happ Inn in Northfield.

How did you start cooking? I started cooking when I first came to the United States when I was 16. My first job was a dishwasher at Denny’s; basically after a couple of months, I really liked the kitchen, and my goal was to be in the business, but I didn’t want to be a dishwasher or a line cook for the rest of my life. After that I just took off, and I worked through high school and for a couple of years [at other restaurants].

Years cooking? As an executive chef, I’ve been cooking 18 years.

What made you decide to become a professional chef? Back in Mexico, you can buy something quick to eat at the market.

My grandmother owned a place for years.

I used to go help her peel some onions, cut tomatoes. I didn’t realize I liked it until I came to the U.S. and worked in a restaurant and saw the whole scene. My mom also has a lot of influence; she’s a really good cook.

Best recipe tweak? Everybody has a

different way of making guacamole, but I think I have one of the best recipes of how guacamole should taste like. I think I make that very well. Other things that I make, moles (a type of sauces), those are very hard recipes to make. Few chefs in Chicago know how to make them; it’s just a technique. I have perfected my recipes over the years.

Favorite food to make? I love cooking Mexican food.

What do you like to eat at home? When I’m at home, I kind of change it up; I cook Italian, believe it or not, I do also a little bit of Asian for the fun of it, I do Vietnamese soup; every Sunday I try to change it up.

One of the things at home is I cook and Susan does the dishes; it’s a good trade. I never get to cook those things (at work), so I like to cook them at home. It’s my livelihood; it’s what I enjoy the most.

Worthwhile gadget? I’m a big, big fan of sharp knives. It makes a big difference.

Favorite cookbook? My favorite chef who writes books is an American lady living in Mexico, Diane Kennedy.

Favorite vegetable? Italian broccoli — it’s called rapini or broccolini. I love cooking with that because of the bitterness. When you sauté with a little garlic and olive oil,

it’s delicious. I also really enjoy arugula.

Funniest or most memorable kitchen incident? The most memorable and painful is when I was cleaning a slicer; I forgot to close it all the way, so I took out a big chunk of my finger. It didn’t really hurt, because it was so sharp, but after a few minutes it was very painful.

1 teaspoon chopped Serrano peppers and juice of 1 lime. Spoon in 4 ripe avocados and gently mix without mashing too much. Add 5 tablespoons of chopped tomato and 2 tablespoons of chopped cilantro. Mix well. Serve with your favorite tortilla chips. For more spice, add more Serranos.

Freddy’s Famous Guacamole: In a small bowl or molcajete, muddle 4 tablespoons diced white onion, 1 teaspoon chopped garlic, 1 teaspoon kosher salt,

Taco Nano is located at 1743 Orchard Ln. in Northfield. For more information or to make a reservation, call 847-386-7159 or visit taconano.com ■

WE HAVE THE KEYS TO YOUR FUTURE!

■ by

Most everyone I know has a Facebook friend who shares too much.

Some offer harsh words about the boss on a difficult Monday. Others detail every moment of their first pregnancy with unparalleled excitement. And more than once during election season was I ready to sign off Facebook for good, as my friends and acquaintances voiced their choices.

But what about the friends who post about their families? It’s cute to see the kids’ birthday parties and snicker at a husband’s confusion during home improvement efforts. The posts about her ex-husband — or her current husband’s ex-wife — however, make me uncomfortable. All of the ex’s behaviors are posted for public debate, and I’m left to wonder why it’s any of my business if the first wife treats her ex-husband like a bottomless wallet.

New York therapist Judith Rabinor says the anger these Facebook friends feel toward their ex-spouses and their current spouses’ ex-spouses is damaging to themselves, their children and stepchildren, and their mutual friends. Physically, anger triggers a chemical response in our bodies, which in excess is bad for our health.

Dr. Rabinor’s new book, “Befriending Your Ex After Divorce: Making Life Better For You, Your Kids, and Yes, Your Ex,” explains how divorcees can overcome the barriers and develop healing relationships with their former spouses.

“Divorce is not a one-stop deal,” she explained, adding that she has been divorced and is now remarried. “You’re involved with your ex every holiday, birthday and school play. It will make your life better if you can put the past aside.”

Lake Forest resident Lynda O’Connor agrees.

She and her current husband, Jim, are both friends with their first spouses — going so far as to spend holidays and family vacations together with their shared children and grandchildren.

“I like Jim’s ex-wife. I enjoy her company, and I

joanna brown

look forward to seeing her,” Lynda said. She added that each of their first spouses is a good person, just not the right match for Jim or Lynda.

“People marry each other for a reason, and those reasons are still there (after a divorce). Just focus on the good and ignore the bad. Rather than harboring bad feelings, we look for the good in the exes and the children flourish because of it.”

Dr. Rabinor explained that research consistently demonstrates that children do better when their parents maintain a non-adversarial environment.

She advised divorcing spouses to keep the kids out of their squabbles for this reason.

“Take a moment and imagine being at your child’s wedding. Your kids want to feel like both parents love them and can tolerate being together on that day,” Dr. Rabinor said.“Or think about the next school play, when Mom is on one side of the auditorium with her friends and Dad is on the other side with his friends. Where does the child go afterward to celebrate? It will make your life better if you can put the past aside.”

She recommends starting with small acts of kindness and to keep at it, even if your ex is slow to acknowledge your efforts or reciprocate. Take the proverbial high road.

Dr. Rabinor acknowledged that this does not work 100 percent of the time. She excused the spouse who is working two jobs to get out of debt while the ex lives the good life with their once-shared wealth.

But those are rare circumstances.

She posed this question for consideration: “My current husband does things all the time that make me mad, but I forgive him and we go on.

Why can we forgive our current husbands and not our ex-husbands?” ■ Love & Marriage columnist Joanna Brown can be reached at Joanna@northshoreweekend.com

28 | business main street Businessmen, church leaders were vital in creating North Shore towns ■ by

bob gariano

The romantic quality of European villages owes much to antiquity. In America, of course, our cities and towns are of more recent origins.

The history of our American settlements paints a distinct picture of our entrepreneurial culture and national character.

The people who founded our towns and villages were often business people or religious leaders who were determined to build new institutions and communities.

This is particularly true in our North Shore communities. The Midwestern culture of entrepreneurism, self-reliance, and religious character has deep roots in the beginnings of the prosperous towns along Lake Michigan.

Evanston was founded on a tract of land that was abandoned early on by French fur traders as largely worthless. Originally called Grosse Pointe, Evanston’s first Anglo-American settler was Major Edward

Mulford, a jewelry dealer and entrepreneur from New York. Major Mulford established the Ten Mile House tavern and hotel on a bluff overlooking the lake in 1836. On May 31, 1850, nine devout Methodists, including John Evans, chose a site just south of the busy tavern for a new college that would combine academics and religious education. The school opened five years later and Northwestern University has since become known internationally as a standard of educational excellence.

Also in 1836, Erastus Patterson and his wife, Zeruah, and their five children joined a wagon train from Vermont determined to head west to build a new life. The family traveled for weeks into the new frontier before arriving at the western shore of Lake Michigan. Stopping to camp on a wooded hill that is today part of Lloyd Park, the family decided that the camp was as good a site as any to put down roots.

They opened a tavern there for travelers along the Green Bay Trail. The family

correctly judged that the trail was becoming an increasingly important thoroughfare between Fort Dearborn, Chicago and Fort Howard, Wis. Less than two decades later, anticipating the route of the Chicago and Milwaukee Railroad Company’s service through the area, Charles Peck and Walter Gurnee established the original subdivision of Winnetka. The name is attributed to Sarah Peck, Charles’s wife, who found the name in a book describing a Native American phrase meaning “beautiful land.” Besides being president of the new railroad, Gurnee was a prophetic land speculator. He would later develop more property further north in an area that would become Highland Park (and also eponymous Gurnee in Lake County).

In the 1840s a group of German immigrants established a farming and business community a little further south and just west of the current Ridge Road. Originally occupied by a French Canadian fur trader, Antoine Ouilmette and his Potawatomi wife, Archange, the land was available to the German settlers when the Ouilmette family moved to Iowa. The Germans built their village — today called Wilmette — around their new St. Joseph Church and School which was established in 1843. The first church structure was a log cabin, but a new stone building replaced it in 1869.

The current school and church buildings were completed in the 1930s.

The City of Lake Forest was incorporated in 1861. Like Evanston, Lake Forest was also founded to support a church-related

educational institution, Lake Forest College. The town was to become a blank canvas for Almerin Hotchkiss. He was a city planner and landscape architect who envisioned suburban communities that were laid out like a British garden. The town’s picturesque, curving streets were designed to reflect the contours of the natural ravines and lakeside bluffs, instead of the rigid gridwork map of other Midwestern towns. Hotchkiss’s design survives to this day, making Lake Forest one of the finest and most beautiful examples of this type of innovative urban design in the country.

After the Civil War General Philip Sheridan was assigned to command an army division to maintain order in the growing commercial interests in the Chicago area. He set up his headquarters on bluffs along the lake shore north of the city. These troops were particularly valuable in helping the city establish order and recover after the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Later, during the Haymarket Riots of 1886, Marshall Field and other prominent Chicago area business people petitioned the War Department to establish a permanent military installation at a site within a day’s march of downtown Chicago.

The fort was built and operated as an army post for more than one hundred years. Fort Sheridan became a residential community in 1990 when 632 acres were sold for private development. ■ Main Street columnist Bob Gariano can be reached at bob@northshoreweekend.com

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Jordan Aron, owner at Imperial Motors, is pleased Jaguar has started to offer all-wheel-drive sedans, which have been selling well at his North Shore showrooms.

All-wheel-drive sedans are driving force for Jaguar dealer ■ by

angelika labno

Especially given the recent snow, Imperial Motors in Wilmette and Lake Bluff is glad it started offering the longanticipated missing link in the Jaguar family — the all-wheel-drive Jaguar, or AWD.

The first-time feature is available with XF and XJ sedans. They were first delivered to U.S. dealers in December.

The AWD operates in rear-wheel drive most of the time — or in other words, when the roads are clear. As soon as the weather worsens, however, the system picks up on

road conditions and can split the engine power between the front and rear axles, up to 50 percent on either side. Winter mode can be activated with a button on the center console, heightening the system’s sensitivity and allowing it to respond to slick conditions sooner and more aggressively.

Drivers can also choose dynamic mode, which sharpens transmission shifts and suspension.

Auto critic Matthew de Paula wrote on the Forbes website, “Jaguar seems to have accomplished everything it set out to do with the new all-wheel-drive system… Not even the steep inclines, declines and sharp turns we encountered while winding our way through the snowy Laurentian mountains a couple of hours north of Quebec could upset the surefooted XJ.” Owner at Imperial Motors Jordan Aron said that it has been well-received, as people have been asking him for an AWD model for years. With over 90 percent of cars in the market being all-wheel drive, Aron previously could only work within the other 10 percent or so.

“We’ve seen an increase in business; AWD is something we’ve needed,” said Aron.

He also revealed that Jaguar’s first true sports car in decades is coming out in May, the F-Type. According to Aron, it will be a “hardcore sports car that’s fast and has great handling.”

A family business since 1953, Imperial Motors is ready to celebrate 60 years in October. It started with European sports cars, and while many came and went, Jaguar pounced to the top. The company itself is at the top, holding the number one slot for selling new Jaguars in the market. It was awarded the 2011/2012 Retailer Excellence Pride of Jaguar Award, the top Jaguar award.

“Jaguar is one of the best-known brands of the world, and they certainly make the most beautiful cars in the world,” said Aron.

“They are a lot of fun to drive and own, and the people who buy them are a lot of fun to be with.” ■

THe North shore weekend

Stopping the puck is a real rush for female goalies ■ by kevin reiterman Her pulse rate starts to rise … just at the thought of it.

“The breakaway,” said Sami Schechter, a freshman goaltender for the Lake Forest Scouts girls hockey team.

“Every time there’s breakaway, I hold my breath. There she is, coming right at you as fast as she can, and you have no defenders to help you.

“My adrenaline,” she added, “goes crazy.”

Mia Rascia, a junior goalie for Loyola Academy, can relate. Trying to stop a puck — coming at you like a guided missile — is about as exhilarating as a newly unveiled roller coaster ride at a theme park.

“You’re blood gets pumping,” she said. “You feel alive.

“Exciting … and a little scary,” Rascia added.

They wear masks — mostly cool-looking ones — but there’s no concealing the true devotion of a female hockey goalie.

Lift the veil. Crack apart the veneer. These girls come from a different stock.

“Goalkeeping? It wasn’t my thing,” said Lake Forest Scouts first-year coach Liz Zorn, who played forward for four years at Cornell University.

But for Lake Forest Academy’s Natalie Warnes, putting on the goalie mask was love at first glove.

“My first game was a shutout,” said Warnes, referring to that fateful day when she was a mere 8 years old. “They gave me the game puck.”

That did it. She was instantly hooked.

Warnes, who will be goaltending for the Highland Parkbased U19 Falcons at the nationals in San Jose, Calif., on April 2-7, believes that she was born to play between the pipes. She plans to play the position in college.

“Some people say that I’m a little too serious out there.

Too intense,” Warnes said. “But I think that’s the way you have to be to play the position. Otherwise, what’s the point?”

“I got into hockey because I like the roughness of the game, the quickness of the game. It’s physical. It’s

competitive,” she added. “And goalkeeping? I love everything about it. It’s unique.”

Her parents, at first, were taken aback.

“They were a little flabbergasted,” said Warnes.

But ballet and figure skating just weren’t cutting it for her.

“Hockey,” Warnes said, “is my sport.”

Clare Kennedy, a senior goalkeeper for Loyola Academy, was only five, when she first put on the pads for a Wilmette Hockey house league game.

And, as it turned out, the equipment fit perfectly — and permanently.

“Prior to the game, our coach gave everyone a position to play but forgot to (assign) a goalie,” said Kennedy. “He asked, ‘Who wants to play goalie?’ No one stepped up — until I raised my hand.

“I fell in love with it right away,” she added. “And I just kept going with it. It’s helped shape my life.”

And, along the way, Kennedy won over her parents.

“They were told, ‘Don’t let your kid be a goalie,’ ” said Kennedy. “But they gave in. And now, they love the fact that I play goalie. My dad likes learning as much as he can about goaltending. The different aspects and techniques.

The different styles of play.”

She also has surprised a few of her peers — at school.

“Most people don’t know a girl goalie,” she said.

Kennedy, the lone senior on the Loyola squad, has developed into a standout. She was named an all-state goalie along with New Trier’s Nicole Diesing, Lake Forest’s Lindsay Projansky and Lyons Township’s Amanda Dinella.

During a 1-0 win over Lake Forest on Feb. 25, Kennedy turned in a head-over-blades performance by collecting 28 saves. A few days earlier in a 4-3 loss to New Trier, she stopped 35 shots.

“The best part of playing goalie is the chance to be a leader on the ice and to be on the ice for every play,” said the 5-foot-4 Kennedy.

Schechter has been a pleasant surprise for the Scouts.

As the No. 2 goalie behind the much-heralded Projansky

(1.00 goals-against average and .949 save percentage), she has started 13 games and managed a 9-3-1 record.

Schechter started playing hockey when she was 9 — in a boys house league at Twin Rinks.

“As I moved up (age) levels, the play became more and more physical,” she said. “It got too dangerous. But I didn’t want to quit hockey.”

Enter New York Times best-selling author Simone Elkeles Schechter, her mother.

Here’s a novel idea.

“It was my mom,” said Sami, “who recommended goalie.”

“I love it, and I’m very glad that she stuck with it,” said Simone, a Deerfield High School graduate who writes widely popular teen novels. “She started out in figure skating but kept asking and kept asking to play hockey.

“And after one game, she had a huge smile on her face.

I knew hockey was her sport.”

There is a downside with being goaltender. The worst part?

“Losing,” said Schechter. “You feel like all of the blame is on you. As a goalie, you’re put on the spot. And it’s a big spot.”

Rascia agrees.

“There’s a lot of pressure,” she said. “And if your team loses, you feel like it’s all on you.”

Giving up a goal — any goal — is agonizing.

“What you do or don’t do can hurt the team,” said Kennedy. “And if you make a mistake, it shows up on the scoreboard.”

Warnes added: “It’s frustrating when you give up a goal.

They’re hard to forget. But afterwards, you have to clear your mind. You can’t let it affect you.”

“To be a goalie, you need to have short-term memory,” said Zorn.

And what does it take to be a good goalie?

“You have to be brave,” the coach said. “It’s a weighted position. During a game you could have 30 or 40 pucks flying at you, and you’ve got to be ready. If you play goalie, expect a lot of bumps and bruises.” ■

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Playing without their

‘ rock

star ’

Let’s Talk Real Estate

by Jean Wright, President/Broker Owner Crs, GrI

stay-CatIOns

New Trier’s Nicole Diesing ■ by bill mclean Nicole Diesing’s house doubles as a menagerie.

The New Trier High School junior hockey goaltender has six pets, including four parrots. The other two are a hedgehog and a bearded dragon lizard.

“It’s a full-time job, taking care of all of them,” Diesing said.

The reigning state champion Trevians lost their full-time goalie for the season when Diesing suffered a broken left collarbone in a 2-0 defeat of Lake Forest High School on Feb. 5. The injury occurred with about five minutes left in the second period, but she stayed in the game until the pain forced her to sit out the third period at North Shore Ice Arena in Northbrook.

“Tough kid,” said New Trier senior Claire McCain, Diesing’s undefeated successor — after Diesing went 18-0-2 in NT’s first 20 games with a .930 save percentage and eight shutouts.

Diesing, a first-year member of the Trevians, is also an Arlington Heights kid who attends Hersey High School. All of the other Trevians on the 2012-13 squad attend New Trier.

Diesing protected the nets for Hersey’s boys teams in her first two seasons as a high school goaltender.

“I can’t imagine how tough it would be to join a team with players who had grown up together playing hockey for as many years as we did,” McCain said. “But Nicole fit right in and she couldn’t be a nicer person.

We were grateful to have her play for us.

“She’s quiet off the ice but vocal on it,” McCain added. “She worked hard in every game for us and did whatever she could to stop shots.”

The Trevs’ newcomer faced 221 shots in 20 games.

She failed to stop only 16 of them.

“Nicole was definitely a rock star in net for us, always ready to practice and play,” said Trevians coach Nelson Forsberg, whose

24-0-2 club plays its Scholastic Cup playoff opener against an opponent to be determined on March 10. “She’s a great goalie who is quick and had some spectacular pad saves on rebounds.”

Diesing was 5 when her skates hit ice for the first time at West Meadows Ice Arena in Rolling Meadows. Her first position in hockey was wing.

“It didn’t fit me,” she recalled. “But goaltending and I clicked right away. I liked it. It’s hard and challenging, but as long as you can get past being scored on, you can handle the position. Knowing I can deal with (a goal against) has made me a stronger player and person.”

Her time between the pipes as NT’s goaltender has emboldened her as well. What also certainly helped is that none of her new teammates ever made her feel like an interloper.

“Everybody has been so nice to me,” said Diesing, who plans to play for New Trier in her senior season. “So far it’s been a very good experience. The team is good and it’s been pretty fun.

“The collarbone, it’s better,” she added.

“I’m OK, but I wish I could still be playing.”

When McCain got the nod to fill in for Diesing for the third period of that game against Lake Forest, she was a green goalie — a deep, deep green one.

“I had never played goalie in a game before,” McCain said. “I had practiced being a goalie a little, stopping mostly tennis balls. I was asked if I wanted to play (after Diesing got hurt) and I said, ‘OK.’ “I was nervous. What really helped was having my teammates in front of me; they made sure I didn’t see that many shots.”

McCain watches Chicago Blackhawks games every chance she gets. Corey Crawford made 32 saves and was the winning goaltender in Chicago’s 2-1 shootout defeat of Detroit on March 3.

“I like them both,” she said of Crawford and his backup, Ray Emery. “I like learning from them.” ■

“Staycations” are one of the nation’s newest trends, and it’s easy to see why—one of the main draws of the “stay-cation” is that you do exactly that—stay home! Now wait a minute, you’re thinking, that sounds boring, or just like any other weekend. Let me put your fears to rest—a staycation is different from an ordinary weekend in a few ways—it’s a great use of a three-day holiday weekend, or a way to use up those sick days you’ve built up and have to use. What makes it different is that you plan for it like you would a traditional vacation—except you skip the stress of packing, travel, checking into a hotel and unpacking, figuring out your way around, renting a car and then having to pack it all up again to travel back home. Hey, now that does sound good, doesn’t it? So many of us get caught up in the hustle and stress of our everyday lives that we forget the things that brought us to the places that we now call “home”—your home town is special, and it’s worth exploring! First things first—turn off the phone and only use the computer for fun and frivolous things—if you were on a “real vacation”, you’d let it go to voicemail, and you would leave checking your work e-mails until you got back home, right? Treat your “stay-cation” as though you’ve gone abroad, leave the “electronic leash” alone, and really let yourself relax. Once you’ve allowed yourself the freedom to be “out of the office”, learn how to be a “hometown tourist”. Is there a park you’ve been meaning to visit, an exhibit at the local museum or a theatre performance that you’ve wanted to check out but could never find the time for? Voilá! You’re on “stay-cation”—you’ve got all the time that you want to take to enjoy those things you never get around to penciling in on your daily schedule! Is there a restaurant you’ve wanted to try? Now’s the time! If you’d pamper yourself on a “regular vacation”, book a massage or a facial at one of your own city’s day spas. Leave yourself plenty of time to sleep in, lounge around and come back from a “stay-cation” more relaxed than most people do from their cross-country trips!

THe North shore weekend

‘I saved your career.’ LOL

Unheralded Banas is no laughing matter after erasing past doubts too, the way he guards bigger guys.

“In the system we run, four of our starters are interchangeable. Stas’ game — it’s well-rounded and the kind that works well in our system.”

Off the court Banas’ demeanor helps him keep his resting heart rate at a Californiacool level.

“He’s extremely laid back and easygoing, and he never gets too high or too

■ by bill mclean It has been a running joke for years between New Trier High School senior guard Stas Banas and Trevians assistant boys basketball coach Terry Coughlin.

As a sixth-grader battling for a spot on a New Trier basketball feeder team, Banas was about to get cut by head coach Charlie Roth. Coughlin was the feeder team’s assistant back then.

“I told (Roth), ‘You’ve got to keep Banas because he makes a lot of hustle plays and he’s a good team player,’ ” Coughlin recalled.

Roth kept Banas.

From that point on, Coughlin has enjoyed reminding Banas that he saved Banas’ basketball career.

“Stas would have gone on to become the basketball player he is today, even if he had been cut,” Coughlin said. “But I like to have fun with him and let him know every now and then what I did for him all those years ago.”

The two hugged to celebrate NT’s 62-56 defeat of host St. Patrick in a Class 4A regional title on March 1. The win advanced New Trier (26-5) to a Glenbrook North Sectional semifinal against Notre Dame (24-5) on March 6.

The running joke?

It still had its sneakers on.

During their embrace, Coughlin told Banas, “ ‘I saved your career for a moment like this.’ ” Banas has rescued New Trier, which tied a school record for most wins in a season, in a variety of ways this winter. The 6-foot-1, 170-pounder poured in a career-high and game-high 22 points in a 65-61 win over St. Viator on Feb. 2. He scored only four points in the regional title game on March 2, but his heady, impromptu cut to the basket resulted in a layup and his long rebound and ensuing outlet pass to point guard Reid Berman led to a Steven Cook layup.

03/09 – 03/10/13

“When you watch him play in games and at every practice like I do, you appreciate what Stas does on a basketball court. He has a knack for making a big shot when the opportunity is there and making a play New Trier’s Stas Banas (right), seen here during the regular season, has been a key player this winter. at a key moment in a photography by j.geil game. | Terry Coughlin “Stas has been great for us and so consistent,” NT coach Scott Fricke said. “You know what you’re going to get from him in every game — great defense, rebounds, a couple of three-pointers, cuts to the basket and finishes.”

The unassuming Banas averages nearly nine points and five boards per game, a year after serving as the Trevians’ second man off the bench.

“I played a couple of minutes here and there,” said Banas, who is thinking about majoring in business at the University of Illinois. “This year I’m in there mainly to play defense and rebound. If the shot is there, I’ll take it.”

Banas’ game is about as flashy as a gray T-shirt and as spicy as oatmeal. But coaches admire its understated and highly effective elements, such as a calm bounce pass that solves a full-court trap and a textbook boxout of a taller player.

“When you watch him play in games and at every practice like I do, you appreciate what Stas does on a basketball court,” Coughlin said. “He has a knack for making a big shot when the opportunity is there and making a play at a key moment in a game.”

Berman also appreciates Banas’ teamfirst, Banas-last approach to hoops.

“He’s selfless and he always plays hard,” the Trevians’ floor leader said. “He’s tough

low,” Coughlin said.

In street clothes he’s also as quiet and modest as they come.

“Stas is very humble,” Fricke said. “He would never talk about how successful he is in basketball.”

Recap: Cook scored 26 points and senior reserve forward Aaron Rosen tossed in 17 in NT’s playoff win over St. Patrick last weekend. Rosen entered the game after Cook committed two fouls in the first two minutes.

“It was Rosen’s best game,” Berman said.

“He scored for us in key spots. ■

Two things were certain when Lake Forest High School sophomore forward Evan Boudreaux shot a three-point attempt near the end of a boys basketball playoff game last weekend: Half of the spectators in Lake Zurich High School’s gym would erupt for joy seconds later while the other half would groan on March 1.

“It felt good,” the Scouts’ 6-foot-7 Boudreaux said of his baseline trey try in the waning seconds of a Class 4A regional title game against Mundelein.

It went in, briefly.

Then it went out.

Simultaneous joyous eruptions/groans ensued.

Had Boudreaux’s shot gone in, it would have forced overtime.

Mundelein’s Mustangs had escaped with a thrilling 59-56 victory, advancing to a Waukegan Sectional semifinal and ending LF’s season at 20-8.

“Maybe I’ll take a day off,” Boudreaux said of his plan for the day after the loss. “Maybe.”

“If I do, I’ll probably take a long bath.”

Lake Forest’s 2012-13 season was awash with memories that will stick around for a while, beginning with the Scouts’ 4-0 mark at the season-opening Niles West Thanksgiving Tournament. Coach Phil LaScala’s club — minus starters Boudreaux and senior guard Carter Bass — nearly won the Hinsdale South Holiday Tournament a month later.

Its most impressive win came at St. Viator on Jan. 22, when LF contained the high-scoring Lions in a 66-53 decision.

St. Viator netted a regional championship last weekend.

“We played a really good game then,” Boudreaux recalled. “We shared the ball, played great defense.

It was a game that gave us the confidence. From that point on we were confident we could beat any of the good teams in the area.”

Mundelein (18-13) is a good team with a late-season

infusion named Robert Knar. The heady senior guard and Northern Iowa recruit suffered a torn ACL in an AAU game last summer, but he rehabbed the knee diligently and aggressively before seeing his first minutes of playing time in January. Knar scored Mundelein’s final two points (free throws, with 11 ticks left) against LF last weekend and is five points shy of 2,000 for his career.

Friday’s regional title game was tied at 45-45 after three quarters, and neither team led by more than three points in the fourth quarter. Fifth-seeded Mundelein went up 55-52 at 3:48, before Boudreaux (team-high 17 points) and Bass (13 points) each tallied a field goal to give the fourth-seeded Scouts a 56-55 edge with 2:19 left.

Mustangs senior guard/forward Sean O’Brien (24 points, 14 rebounds) struck for the final field goal of the night at 1:01.

“A back-and-forth game, like playoff games usually are,” said LF senior Ben Simpson (13 points, five rebounds), who will play Division III hoops at Ohio Wesleyan University. “It was fun to be a part of a game like that.”

Simpson made the most athletic move of the game late in the fourth quarter, thwarting a Mundelein lob pass deep in a lane. The guard elevated his 6-4 frame off one leg and tapped the ball directly to 6-9 classmate Sam Downey (10 points), who then turned to release an outlet pass.

“Ben,” LaScala said, “is a competitor who got better and better each game this year. He had a great game tonight.

“It was a really special group,” he added. “Our (five) seniors did a great job leading us.”

Boudreaux and Yale-bound Downey each grabbed eight boards in the loss, two nights after Downey poured in a game-high 21 points in a 65-49 defeat of Hersey in a regional semifinal. Boudreaux finished with 13 points, 11 rebounds and five assists against the Huskies, while Scouts senior guard George Quall had six assists and four steals on Feb. 27. ■

THE NORTH SHORE WEEKEND

Playoff run ends for Curren, Raiders ■ by kevin reiterman With 1:14 left to play in the Class 2A sectional championship game at Guerin High School, Austin Curren was whistled for “climbing a back” while trying to pull down an offensive rebound.

It was his fifth foul.

Curren, who seldom changes his expression during a game, gave the referee that look: Are you kidding me?

“Tonight’s game didn’t feel like a high school game,” said the solidly built 6-foot3, 180-pound North Shore Country Day senior, following his team’s 57-45 setback to extremely aggressive Providence St. Mel (25-5) on March 1. “It felt more like an AAU game.

“It was called very loose,” said the fouryear varsity star who plays club basketball for RMG Hoops. “The refs let us play.”

Losing Curren, who finished the game with team highs in points (16) and rebounds (10), was a major blow for the Raiders (1710), especially since he joined teammate Riley Hall (four points, nine rebounds), who picked up his fifth foul with 2:14 remaining, on the bench.

“I think we got a little overzealous in that Austin and Riley picked up one or two bad fouls apiece,” said NSCD head coach Rashid Smith, who saw his team’s sevengame win streak come to an end. “(But) I think they got some bad breaks on one or two of their fouls.

“Having them foul out was deflating,” the coach added.

Curren, who battled a hamstring injury throughout the season, did all he could.

He scored seven points in the first four

minutes of the fourth quarter to keep the Raiders in reach.

“No regrets,” said Curren, a 2012 thirdteam all-state selection by the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association (IBCA).

“We left it all on the floor.”

Curren, who earned all-conference honors this winter along with Hall and point guard Jamie Swimmer, had quite a run with the Raiders, who finished fourth in the 2012 IHSA Class 1A state tournament.

With his inside/outside game, he figures to play at the next level. He definitely has caught the interest of Division III Lake Forest College, which had scouts at two of the Raiders’ four state playoff games.

Swimmer, who finished with 12 points, also is looking to play college ball, while the 6-4 Hall has been recruited by Claremont McKenna College in California.

Saying goodbye to the senior class, which also features starters Floris Hondomann and Timothy Morette and top reserves Elias Butler, Michael Jaharis, Ayo Okesanya and Sam Tullman, won’t be easy for Smith and his staff.

“I’m proud of this team,” said Smith, who has won 10 of 14 state playoff games during his three-year stint with the Raiders.

“They’ve all got bright futures.

“The leadership was great,” he added.

“There’s a team full of captains — basketball, football, soccer — in that locker room.”

Butler, who was the starting quarterback on the NSCD football team, went out in a blaze of glory. The two-guard came off the bench and hit a pair of ice-in-the-veins three-pointers in the fourth quarter. He

Ramblers point to next season ■ by t.j. brown Loyola Academy junior Jack Morrissey was back in the gym — on Saturday.

Unfortunately for Morrissey and his Ramblers, his practice session wasn’t to prepare for the Glenbrook North Sectional semifinal. Instead, he and his returning teammates are focused on completing Loyola’s ascent next season.

Loyola’s 2012-13 season ended with a 68-57 loss to Niles North on March 1 in the Class 4A Loyola Regional championship game. It ended a 15-game winning streak, and a 22-6 season that featured a Chicago Catholic League title. But as Niles North cut down the nets, juniors like Morrissey and James Clarke already were thinking about next season.

“We want to be back here again and win the regional championship,” Clarke said.

“We’re going to work in the offseason really hard.”

Clarke and Morrissey should be front and center next season if Loyola is to compete for a regional title. The pair led Loyola in scoring again Friday, with Morrissey scoring 25 and adding three steals, while Clarke added 14 points and four assists.

Seniors Richie Wehman added four points and eight assists, while senior Matt Sullivan scored six points and grabbed six rebounds.

The task of replacing Wehman and Sullivan and the other seniors will go beyond filling their minutes on the court.

“Statistically, the strength of our team

is our juniors and our one sophomore, but from a chemistry and leadership standpoint, our seniors are irreplaceable,” Loyola coach Tom Livatino said. “The challenge for this team is how our juniors and sophomores are going to fill that void.”

Morrissey agreed.

“They were great leaders, on and off the court vocally, always telling us positive things as well as what we were doing wrong,” he said.

Coming into the season with high expectations, Loyola struggled to hit a stride in the early going. It was a team meeting called shortly after losing to Niles North in the Wheeling Holiday Tournament that righted the ship.

“We didn’t know who we were, and we had a team meeting around that time and said, ‘This is what we want to do, and here’s how we’re going to do it,’ “Morrissey said.

What they did was promptly win 15 in a row and a conference title.

“We just went over what we were doing wrong, who needs to step up, how we were going to become successful,” Morrissey said.

“We just focused a lot on details.”

The results spoke for themselves, and Livatino credited the leadership of seniors like Sullivan, Wehman, Jack Byrne, Austin Morton and Matt Bauer.

“As a head coach, this team was the most fun to coach, and I’ve been lucky to be a part of some great championship teams, but I have never been more proud than I am of this team,” he said. “It was an honor to coach these guys.” ■

CHA HAD IT ALL. She marketed the home in an assertive, creative manner. Her knowledge of the real estate market, the area and the immediate neighborhood was complete, outstanding. She frequently updated me on showings, etc., in detail. She was supportive in negotiating with rather prickly buyers, giving excellent advice, exploring other avenues to sell the house, and not being afraid to give advice. In this emotionally charged sale of my late/ill parents’ home, Cha was understanding patient, communicative, encouraging, and utterly professional. I would highly recommend Cha, absolutely.

For Marga & John Tucson offers a smooth ride We are avid cyclists. One weekend in November we rode El Tour de Tucson in Arizona with about 9,000 cyclists.

We flew out on a Thursday, and our bikes were shipped there in advance. We enjoyed a big bash at an Indian casino for the event that evening. On Friday we went to a Ride to End Polio dinner.

On Saturday we got up at 5 a.m. It was still dark out. We had breakfast and had to get there by 6 a.m. We started around 7 and rode together. Twenty minutes into it, I (John) got a flat tire. I didn’t have my tools with me, and I had to wait 30 minutes until the support vehicles came.

The ride goes around Tucson for 111 miles, so you have scenic parts and industrial parts. It was picturesque and

relatively flat. It was in the mid-70s that day. Two or three times we had to get off our bikes and walk over dry riverbeds while carrying them. There were rest stations along the way we could stop at.

We did the full 111 miles. My wife had never ridden that far. At the finish line, we relaxed with the Rotarians. That night we went to a Rotarian’s house we were staying at in the Tucson foothills and had a chili and margarita dinner.

Our goal was to raise $111,000 as a couple for Rotary.

Our signature initiative is to eradicate polio. We ended up raising $260,000, and other Rotarians helped us raise about $425,000 total. It was exciting to be part of that undertaking.

On Sunday we flew to Tokyo. We certainly slept well on the plane, that’s for sure.
