HINSDALE — Ten-year-old John Tischke of Hinsdale battled through a week of pneumonia and dehydration to create a claymation for a contest at the Westmont Film Festival last month. Despite winning third place for his animated film and second place for contributing to another film as part of a group project, John still was his own toughest critic. He went up against about 20 entries ranging in age from elementary through college. “I was really happy, but sort of disappointed I didn’t win first,” the Madison School fourth-grader said. John has been making films since first grade and drawing since the age of 2. His love of drawing and animation led him to taking classes at the Zephyr Academy of Art in Clarendon Hills for the past two years. “He started picking up the concepts of perspective and shadowing at what I thought was a really early age,” said his father, Jim. “He just kind of ran with it since then.” The claymation John entered featured a “war” between Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny to see who was best. Titled “Rivalry,” the film depicts a series of comical pranks and deceptions the two holiday characters pull on each other to ultimately claim the top spot in the holiday food chain. It took him about a month to finish the two-minute movie after some trial and error with initial plans. “At first I was just sculpting things because I couldn’t get an idea,” John said. “Then I ended up sculpting Santa, and it started from there.” John also is entering the Doodle 4 Google drawing contest this month, where participants are asked to turn the Google logo into an artistic creation. He showed off his original

GEORGE HURST
RON HURST
BY HURSTS’ BERWYN JEWELERS BOTSWANA, DIAMONDS AND YOU
Ever since Leonardo DiCaprio’s staring appearance in the 2006 movie ‘Blood Diamond’ some pseudo-savants have been concerned over the social affects of diamond sourcing without bothering to check facts. If, perhaps, Charles Leavitt (author of the screenplay) and Edward Zwick (director) could put together a similarly gripping film about columbite-tantalite (important to cell phone manufacture) their attention might be redirected. At least two unsavory rebel groups in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of Congo are actively engaged in human rights abuses to mine this mineral; but it seems to draw little attention while some continue to demonize diamond sourcing. Nothing could be more misleading. Allow me to direct your attention to Botswana. For those of you who’ve never looked into it, you may be pleased to learn that in 2002, and without a shot being fired, the diamond business, agreeing to the Kimberly Process, purged itself of many of the demons raised (long after the fact!) in the ‘Blood Diamond’. The Kimberly Process is an agreement to frustrate the use of rough diamonds to finance rebellions; and as one of the original parties to the agreement, Botswana deserves a look. Unlike Zimbabwe, where diamond profits, embezzled by corrupt officials, are used to support Robert Mugabe’s dictatorial government, and unlike the diamonds of ‘Blood Diamond’, Botswana’s diamonds have been used for the public good since they were first discovered to be commercially recoverable in 1967. Indeed, when CNN interviewed Botswana’s Education Minister Jacob Dicky Nkate (since returned to the private practice of law), about the country’s diamond wealth he pointedly said, “Our former leaders were visionaries. They insisted that after the discovery of diamonds, every single [citizen] be entitled to a free education from first grade to a doctorate degree free of charge. How many democracies can boast that achievement?” In fact, or at least according to the ‘CIA World Fact Book’, diamonds have been the driving force in raising Botswana from one of the world’s poorest nations to one of ‘middle’ wealth with a per capita domestic product on a par with Russia, Chile and Turkey. The joint diamond mining venture between DeBeers and Botswana, ‘Debswana’, is the world’s largest diamond producer by value; and it is the source of about 30% of Botswana’s Gross Domestic Product. Between dividends, royalties and taxes, the company is the source of virtually 50% of all of Botswana’s Government revenues, and more than 95% of the company’s more than 7,000 employees are Botswanans. The downside to this, of course, is that Botswana’s dependence
on diamonds raises the risk that when the diamonds run out (thought to be about twenty years from now) the economy will collapse. As this is a foreseeable risk, the Government of Botswana has once again begun to use its diamond wealth as a bootstrap. DeBeers, for instance, has agreed that beginning this year it will sort all of its diamonds in Gaborone, the country’s capital, which De Beers CEO, Phillippe Mellier, estimates will transform Botswana “into a leading international diamond center.” And there are other plans as well. It’s stable and transparent democratic government affords Botswana one of Africa’s best investment climates, one the Government seeks to capitalize on to spur

foreign investment in the extraction of some of the other minerals in which the country abounds. For the present and the diamond buyer, however, it is Botswana’s participation in DeBeers that may be the most telling. Our former Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton, may have said it all in a 2009 interview. “... When you buy a diamond from De Beers, part of that money still today goes to help build and maintain roads and clean water systems in Botswana. You can drive anywhere in that country and you can see services that have been paid for by a legal framework, strong regulations, and a national consensus that the money from the Earth and its riches should be spent on the people of Botswana...” If that doesn’t justify the purchase of a great diamond to celebrate your great romance, I don’t know what else might. And for your information, all of our superlative Hearts On Fire diamonds are sourced from DeBeers and then cut to a beauty that others just can’t match. So check out our website, hurstsberwynjewelers.com, then phone us for an appointment to select the perfect statement of your love. We’re Hursts’ Berwyn Jewelers and our greatest pleasure is helping you say what you want to say with a great gift from the heart. That’s why we’re the uncommon jeweler.

Police, coroner’s office probing cause of accident that killed Darien couple By DAVID HEITZ dheitz@shawmedia.com WESTMONT — Authorities in Westmont are still investigating the cause of a car accident last week that killed a Darien couple after the vehicle they were in left the roadway and struck a tree. The two victims in the fatal car accident early March 21 have been identified as Richard Klima, 60, and Arlene Klima, 71. A spokesperson for the DuPage County Coroner’s Office said Tuesday the accident
is still under investigation, and the office is waiting for autopsy and toxicology results. Westmont police said the Klimas were killed after a Jeep Grand Cherokee they were traveling in heading eastbound in the 500 block of West 59th Street left the roadway, struck a tree, rolled over and caught fire about 3:20 a.m. March 21. The vehicle was engulfed in flames when officers arrived, and the fire was extinguished by the Westmont Fire Department. The Klimas died at the scene, police said.

TAX TIPS
by
JUDI STRAUSS, E.A.
WHAT IS THE AMT? The Alternative Minimum Tax is the way the tax code gets you to pay more tax when you have certain tax preference items. Since the rates have been lowered substantially, both for our regular income and for qualified dividends and long term capital gains, we see many taxpayers with AMT. So if you have certain tax preference items, and your total tax rate is lower than 20%, you probably will “kick into” AMT. Some of the more common are: • Taxes, including IL Income (now 5%) or Sales Tax and Real Estate Tax • Qualified Dividends and/or Long Term Capital Gains What the AMT does is to refigure your tax using different income and deduction items. This is done on Form 6251. If your tax using this form is higher than your regular tax, the difference is added in as AMT tax. STRAUSS TAX SERVICE can prepare your 2012 tax return, check is you “kick” into AMT, answer your questions, plan for 2013 taxes and save you money. We are located at 624 62nd Street, Downers Grove and are open from 9 AM - 9 PM daily.

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com HINSDALE — Either Steinway Piano is unlucky, or someone is on a mission to plunder some pianos. Steinway Piano, 120 S. Washington St. in Hinsdale, was the victim of two car accidents within two days last month. Both the accidents occurred
shortly after the store opened. “I just heard a loud bang, and then there was a little red Honda Civic sitting on the sidewalk outside that just barreled right into the corner of the building,” sales manager Diane Duncan said of the first incident on Feb. 21. While that car struck mostly brick, the second crash on Feb. 23 did the most damage.
8NEWS BRIEFS Emerald Ash Borer found in Darien DARIEN — The Emerald Ash Borer has been identified in an ash tree in the Hinsbrook neighborhood. The Emerald Ash Borer is a highly destructive insect that
attacks and kills all species of ash trees, and has been present in North America since 2002. This is the only confirmed location in Darien so far. Residents who have an ash tree on their private property that is showing signs of decline
A small amount of snow had built up and formed a ramp effect for a car that was pulling into a parking spot directly in front of the entrance doors. Duncan was with a customer at the time of the accident as glass suddenly showered the showroom floor. “He thought it was rather unique and said he would never forget his purchasing experience,” Duncan said. “We’ve had people tell us that they didn’t realize Steinway was a drive-thru, and you know, the jokes go on and on with it. So we’re hav-
ing fun with it.” While the situation then just seemed unlucky, it has evolved into what may be a curse on the city street. On Monday, a Mercedes SUV struck the storefront of the former Zak’s Place, 112 S. Washington St., just a couple doors down from Steinway Piano. The 61-year-old driver was cited for failure to reduce speed to avoid an accident, according to police reports. No one was ticketed during the Feb. 21 or 23 incidents. “The same thing happens
just a few doors down from us, and it’s like, OK, what’s going on Washington Street?” Duncan said. Steinway has a temporary door set up and is expecting custom doors to come in a couple months. Duncan said they can laugh about it now, but at the time, everyone was just thankful the drivers and anyone walking nearby weren’t injured. “We cleaned up, and none of our pianos were harmed and no one was hurt, so we’re all good to go here,” she said.

Local church remembers lives lost to gun violence By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com CLARENDON HILLS — It was a bittersweet sight on the lawn of Church of the Holy Nativity in Clarendon Hills on Sunday. Volunteers as young as 4 years old braved the cold and blistering winds to help address an issue that has become all too common in the Chicago area: death as a result of gun violence. To remember victims and increase awareness, the Rev. Aimée Delevett gathered church members and volunteers to help install crosses on church lawn. Each cross represents an indi-
vidual who died from gun violence in Chicago and its suburbs so far in 2013. Only a few months into the year, the group posted more than 60 crosses on Sunday. “I think there’s a level where people turn on the news at night, and this washes over them and they get so immune to it,” said Delevett, who has been preaching at the church for a little more than six years. “This is not something people become immune to. These are people dying. These are people killing one another.”
Louisa Hallas, youth minster for Church of the Holy Nativity in Clarendon Hills, places crosses in the ground on Sunday. The crosses symbolize all the deaths from gun-related events in the Chicago area so far in 2013. Colin McAuliffe — For Suburban Life Media

Draped over each cross was a colored T-shirt, handwritten with the person’s name and age. Victims range in age from toddlers to the elderly. “We had about 60 T-shirts to make, and I was really concerned people were going to be like, ‘Oh, I have to go’ and couldn’t stay, but people did not budge until all 60 shirts were finished,” Delevett said. It was the youth in particular Delevett wanted to reach with the message. One of the youngest helpers on Sunday was Jody Collins’ 4-year-old daughter, Natalie, who was the first person to grab a hammer and start setting up a cross. “I told her we were making crosses for people who died, and they got shot by a gun,” said Collins, of Willowbrook. “She wanted to hammer the crosses in by herself, and she was able to do it. So even a 4-year-old can make a difference.” Collins said it was spiritu-

ally moving for her to see the crosses all set up — and for her daughter to be part of the construction. “When I put a shirt on the cross, I said a prayer for that person and their family,” she said. “It’s just very touching, and I hope people drive by and take the time to see this and think about gun violence in our community.” The crosses and T-shirts were made by both youth and adults of the parish who wanted to help. “I thought it was a beautiful idea and very moving,” said Cindy Houghton of Westmont, an 18-year member of the church. “It’s all going to be incorporated into our Easter vigil service.” On Easter Sunday, the crosses will be bare while the shirts are removed to be part of a special vigil, which takes place at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at the church, 275 S. Richmond Ave., Clarendon Hills. Easter worship services are at 7:30 and 9:30 a.m. Sunday, with an egg hunt to take place at 10:45 a.m.

HINSDALE — It’s come down to experience versus background in the race for school board at Hinsdale Township High School District 86. Eight candidates are vying for four open seats, including Dennis Brennan, Victor Casini, Ed Corcoran, Kay Gallo, DeeDee Gorgol, Roger Kempa, Claudia Manley and Roseanne Rosenthal. Two slates also have emerged in the race. The first, “Building on Excellence,” includes the incumbents — Brennan, Gallo and Gorgol — along with candidate Rosenthal. The second slate, “Friends for District 86,” includes Manley, Corcoran and Casini. “Building’s” Gallo said she is proud of the district’s direction, especially with the hiring of Nicholas Wahl as superintendent. She added that it’s the work ethic and “student-centric mindset” that makes up the identity of her slate. “I think with our slate, people have seen our track record of what we’ve done,” Gallo said. “With these new people, there’s really not a track record.” However, Manley, representing the “Friends,” said she would like to see more transparency on the School Board and have residents more involved in making decisions. “We would like to improve on community collaboration,” Manley said. “We would like to re-activate and
re-energize the importance of the board through ... the committee structure.” Fiscal responsibility also is a major issue in the race, Corcoran said. The “Friends” would like to introduce finance, tax and facilities committees and put community experts on them. Gallo, meanwhile, stressed the importance of making sure information was readily available to the public. “We need to make sure our website is a living thing, not something that becomes stale,” she said. Gallo also said she hopes to be able to continue her work with the current board in making the two high schools “even better” than what they are now. “The public knows I say what I mean, and I mean what I say,” Gallo said. “I follow it up, and I’ll be the first one to say I made a mistake if a mistake has been made, and I try to just be clear-headed and thoughtful. (Brennan) and (Gorgol) are the same way.” If elected, Manley said reaching out to the community is one of her main goals. “We need to go out there and we need to say them, ‘These are your schools; these are your students. You’re the taxpayers. We need to know what you want in the schools, and we’ll do it,” she said. Candidates Brennan, Casini, Gorgol, Kempa and Rosenthal could not be reached for comment. Early voting is now under way, and election day is April 9.

In order to seek competitive prices for an opt-out aggregation program, the village must first obtain approval from residents through a referendum on April 9.

Thanks to those who attended township open house March 9 A dreary cold rainy afternoon could not stop residents from attending our fourth annual Local Government Week: Open House on March 9. The doors opened to reveal the inner workings of township government. The township supervisor, elected officials and staff, along with senior and youth volunteers, greeted residents with the aroma of grilled hot dogs, chips and beverages. More than 200 residents attended. Residents could view colorful backdrops and displays that COMMUNITY highlighted township programs. VOICE Additionally, residents could apply for passports and RTA cards. The Frank DuPage Sheriff, Illinois Student Wurster Assistance Corp and FISH Pantry (located in the township building basement) also shared information and resources. Visitors were further informed of our two new not-for-profit groups — “Oak Hill and Oak Crest Cemeteries Foundation” and “Friends of Downers Grove Township Senior Citizens.” The Cemeteries Foundation will provide for restoration of our two historic cemeteries. The Senior Citizens Foundation will seek to enhance the quality of lives for older adults by acting as a resource for funding programs, services, education and information. Visitors to our highway department, which maintains the township’s unincorporated roads, shared positive feedback about work completed throughout the year, which included: the curb and gutter program, brush pick-up and paving. Brush pick-up begins April 1 and runs through May 11. Call the highway office or check our website for pick-up in your area. The highway department’s biggest success is the Electronic Recycling Program. Since 2009, 174,788 pounds — 87 tons — of recycled electronics have been received. That equates to the weight of 14 elephants. Every year, the open house offers another opportunity for recycling at our township location. Normal drop-off is every third Saturday of the month from 8 a.m. to noon (except holiday weekends) at the Highway Garage, 318 E. Quincy St. in Westmont. The Assessor’s Office was pleased with residents’ interest in their department. Their friendly staff created informational displays, answered questions and allowed residents to view their parcels. Their quest was to make a sometimes-confusing process more understandable for the general public. Call us at 630-719-6600 with questions, or visit dgtownship.com. The FISH Pantry can be reached by calling Ruth Anderson at 630-964-7776. The 2014 Open House will be held on Saturday, March 8. Hope to see you then.

8LETTERS Change in leadership needed in D-86 To the editor: On March 1, I requested from Superintendent Nick Wahl copies of any documents prepared by financial advisers, our business office, law firm, or anyone else who makes any kind of financial analysis for the newly approved amendments to the Collective Bargaining Agreement for Teachers’ Contract. One week later, March 8, I received an email from Wahl in regards to my request. He referred me to the meeting agenda of Feb. 25, items XV & XVII. Item XV was adjournment to closed session; Item XVII(A) is, “Ratification of Teacher Contract Settlement.” In short — given an entire week, Wahl was unable to provide me with a single document, from within the district or from any of its outside consultants, analyzing the terms of the contract’s financial impact on District 86. The review of terms in closed session is a confidential communication, but I can say it was unaccompanied by any documents (except the revised agreement itself), nor did it attempt to analyze in any detail the financial impact to the district. I voted against this agreement due to the fact there was no analysis to the district, no details provided to the board prior to the meeting, leaving only 30 minutes to

• LETTERS Continued from page 11 on April 9. After years of tiring school board infighting, poor planning, overspending, lack of real transparency and a failure to exercise common sense principles, it is time for new leadership. After reviewing school board decisions over the past several years, I have concluded that change is in the air. A new slate of three school board candidates, Manley, Casini and Corcoran, have proposed online, common-sense solutions to the problems that plague our current school board. Their solutions bring order out of chaos by collaboration with students, parents, teachers and taxpayers, not mandating personal agendas and spending our tax dollars needlessly. Manley, Casini and Corcoran want to reform the school board and based on their previous accomplishments, I believe they can. I asked myself whether the current board has fairly served our school community – not by spending $15 million taxpayer dollars on air-conditioning without even a referendum, not by barring parental input on school curricula and not by allowing our special education program to fall below state standards. Now, more than ever, we need fiscal responsibility, fresh ideas, respectable leadership credentials, common-sense values and ideals, real transparency for the taxpayers and parents and fairness in any bidding process – all focusing on providing an educational experience second to none. It’s time to vote for like-minded advocates of the Hinsdale School District 86 students. What we need is a vote on April 9 from our entire community for Manley, Casini and Corcoran. J. Michael Tuchek Burr Ridge
Slate would move school district forward To the editor: As a former School Board member, I recognize and value the importance of an effective, collaborative School Board and
their effect on the academic achievement and well-being of District 86 high school students. For that reason, I am supporting the “Building on Excellence” slate of Brennan, Gorgol, Gallo and Rosenthal. All of these individuals have school board experience and are focused on moving the district forward in a well-thought out, respectful manner. Improved safety and security at both schools and careful financial planning and adjustments to spending have resulted in seven balanced budgets. Through their past work, Brennan, Gorgol, Gallo and Rosenthal have demonstrated efficient and reasonable process by adherence to board policy and procedures. One of the primary responsibilities of the board is to work with the superintendent. Single-issue candidates or those with an agenda stall the work of the superintendent and the board and delay in providing our students and teachers with the programs and support they need to have a first-class educational program. I believe this slate is respectful and collaborative and will listen to each other as they work to ensure the highest level of academic experiences for our students, teachers and administrators. I urge you to vote on April 9 for the “Building on Excellence” slate of Brennan, Gorgol, Gallo and Rosenthal, Nos. 3, 4, 5 and 6 on the ballot. Ann Scott Clarendon Hills
Vote Mirabile, Hawbaker for Pleasantdale board To the editor: I am writing this letter to encourage voters to vote for Mark Mirabile and Michael Hawbaker for the Pleasantdale School Board. These two men are strong members of our community who take an active role in improving our school district for all families. They have no personal agendas, only the best improvement ideas for all families in our community. They are ready to continue strengthening our district’s fi-
nancial position as well as work to add more programs that will benefit all of our children. Mark and Mike are stellar members of our community and well-respected for their efforts and involvement in our schools.

Vote Mirabile, Hawbaker for District 107 To the editor: As a Pleasantdale School District 107 community member for over 30 years as well as an individual who has been passionately involved in our school district for almost 20 years, I am writing in support of Mark Mirabile and Mike Hawbaker. I believe both of these individuals will bring their professional business experience, their passion for education and their informed decision-making to the Board of Education while maintaining a perspective that advances educational opportunities for all students. Engaging in constructive dialogue, each brings independent and diverse viewpoints, which will openly and morally be presented, discussed and debated. Their connection within the community, their understanding of fiscal advantages as well as constraints, and their tireless effort to work for and on behalf children, speak to the commitment, character and integrity of Mark and Mike to serve our community responsibly.

ELMHURST — Do you remember the Chicago, Aurora and Elgin “Third Rail” line that operated through Chicago’s western suburbs? Today, the Illinois Prairie Path is located on 62 miles of rightof-way that used to be the old CA&E route.

How to keep kids entertained all summer long
S
ummer vacation often starts with high expectations. Children are excited about the prospect of fun days outdoors playing with friends, while parents anxiously await relaxing months without the responsibilities of school and extracurricular clubs. But once summer vacation arrives and the first few days have passed, parents often find that the litany of cheers and giggles transform into a chorus of “I’m bored.” Many parents pore over ideas that will keep their children busy throughout the summer. Many activities that come to mind tend to be expensive, so if cutting costs is a priority, parents might need to think outside the box to come up with entertaining ideas that won’t break the bank.
Camp Summer camp is a popular way for kids to spend their summers, but many camps are expensive.The American Camp Association has found that overnight camps can cost anywhere from $325 to $780 a week. Day camp fees may be $100 to $275 per week. Parents who send their children to camp for an entire season might pay anywhere from $3,000 to $9,000 for the seven- to nine-week program. Parents looking for an alternative to costly camps should consider local programs that offer summer activities. Libraries, schools and childcare centers may have programs that run
the length of summer and are considerably less expensive than more formal camps. A YMCA or even a swim club may also put together activities. Parents whose children attend afterschool sporting classes, such as karate or soccer, may find that the organizations offer a camp or summer program.
Day Trips If a parent is off for the summer, then day trips may be a possibility. Schedule a few day trips to different locations that the kids are excited to see. Newspapers routinely print “Go See It” or “Just Go” listings that highlight local events. The family can gather around the table and decide which outings would be interesting and then mark them on the calendar. Some parents purchase season passes to amusement parks and take the kids several times over the summer. In either case, bring snacks and lunch from home when possible to keep costs in check.
Kid Swap Chances are many of your neighbors are also facing the same difficulties as they try to find ways for kids to spend their summer afternoons. Parents can get together and set up a schedule for entertaining the kids. For example, one parent is responsible for the whole lot one day, while the next day another parent takes a turn. This gives parents the opportunity to take a break from parental
responsibilities and enjoy some quiet time. And for the children, time spent in a pool, watching movies, playing video games, or riding bikes is often more enjoyable with friends in tow.
cool off during the hot summer days and get a chore done. While parents should not expect a perfect job, they can rest assured that the kids will have at least an hour of fun in the sun and water. Fun Projects Set aside a patch of the yard Children often want to feel that children can turn into their useful, and may enjoy the responsibility of some easy tasks in own personal gardens. Encourand around the house -- so long age digging in this area and provide seeds or seedling plants as the tasks are fun. Washing the car with a hose and a bucket as well as kid-sized gardening tools. Each day the kids can of sudsy water is a fun way to
check on the progress of their gardens. Some home-improvement and craft stores sponsor free learning activities for children. They can be held in the morning or afternoon and will teach interesting skills that can be put to use again at home. Summer vacations are soon to arrive, and parents can be armed with a list of enjoyable – yet inexpensive – ways to keep kids busy.

Choosing the right summer camp I
t can be difficult to envision warm summer days when the wind is blowing and the snow is falling. However, the winter months are a great time to explore summer camp options. In fact, many camps have strict enrollment timelines that require decisions to be made prior to spring. Attending summer camp has been a tradition in the United States for more than 150 years. Statistics indicate that around 30 million American kids attend summer camp each year. There are many benefits to summer camp. Camp enables children to stay engaged during the summer when there may be limited interaction with school friends. It also gives parents both a safe and viable daycare solution during the summer. Summer camp pulls together children from different neighborhoods, social classes and backgrounds, which can make
it a good place to meet new people – some of whom may become lifelong friends. Camps also provide a variety of activities that can challenge children to try new things that go beyond their comfort zones. Some children are very receptive to the idea of attending summer camp. Others need a little coaxing. But summer camp should never be forced on a child who does not want to go. In such instances, consider local daytime programs that may fill the void instead of programs that require being away from home. Once the decision for summer camp is made, there are some questions to answer. • What are your inances like? Do you have a budget for summer camp? • What size camp do you desire? • Should the camp be co-ed or single sex?

Summer camp is a fun way that millions of children spend their summers each year.
If your child loves to jump, bounce or, hang around and have fun, Premier Gymnastics has fun and safe morning and afternoon classes available right now!
• How far do you want your child to travel for summer camp? What are the options in your area? • Are there any camps that have been recommended by friends or family members? • What kinds of activities do your children enjoy? These types of questions will help you narrow down your options. Then you can visit and interview camps to find one that is the best fit. When visiting camps, go armed with a checklist of questions. Some of these can include: • What is the philosophy of the camp? • Can you explain a typical day? • What are the types of activities and facilities offered? • What is the camper-to-counselor ratio? • What is the camp’s drug/ alcohol policy?
• Does the camp have insurance and security personnel? • What percentage of staff return each year? How are staff selected and trained? • What kind of health care is provided? • Can you tell me about the policy on phone calls and family visits? • What do you do in the event of emergencies? There are many different camps available. Some offer a “little bit of everything.” Others cater to academics, sports, specific hobbies or even religious preferences. Don’t wait too long to research and sign up for camps because many fill up quite early or have an extensive waiting list. That is why choosing a camp should be part of a winter to-do list.

Did you know? The Little League World Series began in 1947 as a national tournament for all known Little League programs across the United States. Initially known as the National Little League Tournament, the inaugural tournament featured just 11 teams, all of which were from Pennsylvania or New Jersey. However, more than 2,500 spectators were on hand in Williamsport, Pennsylvania to witness Maynard Little League defeat the Lock Haven All Stars in the title game by a score of 16-7. That result was printed in newspapers around the country, and the resulting publicity helped spread Little League nationwide. Within a few years of the inaugural tournament, every state had its own Little League program.

Downers Grove Township supervisor candidates pitch cost-cutting moves some cases.” Downers Grove Township operates on an approximate budget of about $3 million. All revenue comes from real estate taxes. Less than 2 percent of the taxes that property owners pay operate the township. Wurster said over his term the township has addressed budget cuts by saving $350,000 through salaries and employee benefit cuts. He said his own salary has been cut by $120,000 over the length of his term, salaries of trustees were cut from $6,000 to $4,800 annually, and the township clerk’s salary was cut from $27,000 to $20,000. “We have also cut benefits from staff, and changed some of our staff positions from fulltime to part-time in an effort to save more money over the past few years,” Wurster said. But Sole believes more can be done when it comes to the operating budget. She said the tax rates have gone up for the past three years, and that, if elected, she will look at ways to adjust expenses so that the
township does not have to keep raising the tax levy each year. “I would look to do a complete evaluation of all their expenses and see where more cuts could be made,” Sole said. “I think we can operate more efficiently without having to raise the levy each year.” Sole also believes Downers Grove Township needs to develop a five-year strategic plan so they have some kind of guide when it comes to budgeting and serving the needs of township residents more long-term. For years, Sole said the township has been searching for an identity and role, and that long-term planning would assist in identifying itself to residents. For Wurster, one of his goals if re-elected will be to look at a possible cost sharing with municipalities for one of the township’s most popular programs, the Senior Citizen Dial-A-Ride Program. The program provides seniors with free transportation
for doctors visits, shopping and other needs. Wurster said it could be cost efficient to partner with local municipalities in helping offset costs of the program. “Naperville Township has done this, where they have partnered with the city of Naperville to expand the program,” Wurster said. “I believe a similar thing could be done with some of the municipalities in our own township.” When it comes to one of the other roles of the township — maintaining unincorporated roadways — Sole believes more can be done in partnerships with other municipalities as well. “I have seen incidences where plow trucks, while clearing streets, will actually lift their plows for a couple blocks to pass through municipal areas, then lower them when they get back on township roads,” Sole said. “Things like that can be more effectively managed with a little more cooperation between other entities.”

The two candidates vying for supervisor of Downers Grove Township are working hard to promote the township and its service to taxpayers. Incumbent Republican Frank Wurster will face Democratic challenger Karol Ann Sole in the April 9 Consolidate Election for supervisor. The township supervisor oversees the township’s general assistance fund, serves as chairman the township board of trustees and works with the many villages within the township, including Downers Grove, Westmont, Hinsdale, Darien and part of Woodridge. Wurster, a Downers Grove resident who served eight years as a township trustee before being elected to the supervisor position in 2009, said he has the experience to continue leading the township for four more years. “I have been involved in the township for 12 years, and have over 20 years in super-
visor experience in the private sector before that,” Wurster said. “I believe I have the experience to lead the Frank township and Wurster to address the issues that face us.” Sole, a Westmont resident who works as an industrial engineer — she said Karol Ann she has more than 20 years Sole in the fields of environment, health and safety — thinks that Downers Grove Township can provide services more efficiently and effectively that what it is currently offered. “I can provide the leadership needed to optimize their functions,” Sole said. “If elected, one of the first things I will do is look at the budget line by line and look at what is being underutilized, and what can we fund better, or cut back in

Two girls carrying signs listen somberly to stories told by undocumented immigrants living in DuPage County during a “Coming out of the Shadows” rally outside Addison Village Hall on March 16.
Addison immigration rally sees large turnout Group works to bring immigrants ‘out of shadows’ By JOHN RICE msleditorial@shawmedia.com ADDISON — More than 150 protesters — many wearing black T-shirts that read “Out of the Shadows” — recently gathered at Addison Village Hall to hear the stories of undocumented families affected by deportation and immigration policies. The March 16 demonstration was the second annual for the Latino Youth Action League (LOYAL), which formed in June 2011. The local group talks with high school students about continuing their education and promotes workshops through the National Latina Institute for Reproductive Health and other immigrant organizations. The “Drop the I Word” campaign also is aimed to
end the branding of immigrants as illegal aliens. “It’s taboo to tell someone you’re undocumented. You put your family at risk,” said Jocelyn Munguia, a LOYAL co-founder. “That’s why it was a hidden issue. People didn’t want to talk about it.” According to LOYAL, DuPage County has more deportations than any county in Illinois. The organization was founded in response to ICE’s Secure Communities Program, which calls for the deportation of undocumented drivers. LOYAL member Liz Mendoza was 3 years old when her parents brought her to the U.S. from Mexico. Being undocumented was a dark secret that kept her family in fear. Mendoza said she started the process of “proving

her existence” when she obtained her kindergarten certificate. She’s now the proud owner of a Social Security card, driver’s license and worker’s permit. “I had so much stress lifted off me,” Mendoza said. “I don’t have to worry about applying for jobs or school. It opened up so many doors.” One of those doors opened at the College of DuPage culinary school, where Mendoza is majoring in pastry making. This, in turn, led to a paid internship at Disney World. Meanwhile, Felipe Hernandez joined LOYAL in October 2012. He was 6 years old when he entered the U.S. on a visa with his mother and
younger brother. The COD student spoke during Saturday’s rally. “I have learned and grown so much. I’ve learned leadership skills,” he said. “I felt closer and stronger with other undocumented people.” Munguia was reminded of her status when she used her consulate ID card and it wasn’t accepted everywhere. “I couldn’t get a library card, or take out books,” said Munguia, who finally got her documentation last December. “It was a nice Christmas present. My parents were happy. But I didn’t celebrate because others, like my brother and parents, don’t qualify.” She was 11 when her parents brought her and her 3-year-old brother to the U.S. She also grew up in fear of discovery. “You can be undocumented but unafraid,” Munguia said. “That’s why we’re coming out of the shadows into the streets. The ICE will not stop us.”

Restaurant reviews
flour + wine rises beyond expectations The chill of a recent Saturday afternoon sparked the idea of finding a restaurant with wood-fired pizza and a relaxed, romantic setting in which to enjoy it. But Neapolitan pizza turns out to be only part of the attraction at flour + wine in Glen Ellyn, where the rest of the menu is as inventive as its take on the Italian classic. Our server delivered a carafe of water to our candlelit table and went over specials, which included a ricotta and honeycomb appetizer that he described as a sweet bruschetta that also could pinch hit as dessert. Keeping it in the back of our minds for later in the meal, we opted to open with the house salad, but never expected the wow factor. Sublimely fresh, the organic butter lettuce turned up pretty as a picture with ribbons of fennel, toasted candied pecans, Gorgonzola and a delicate house vinaigrette. My dining partner picked the hanger steak accompanied by shallots, tomatoes, fennel, arugula, fingerling potatoes
and citrus chimichurri. Cooked medium rare, it was flavorful and delectable, but we will order it medium next time. With the word flour in the name of the restaurant, it was a welcome surprise to see gluten-free pizza crust and pasta as options. It was especially nice to hear the pizza still would be cooked in the wood-burning oven tucked inside the kitchen — a rare treat for the gluten-intolerant among us. I ordered the “local sausage and raisins” pizza. Not only was the crust a far cry from often cardboard-like substitutes, but it also was crispy from the hot oven with great texture that left you feeling anything but deprived. The high heat had caramelized the golden raisins to a succulent sweetness, a perfect complement to the tasty crumbled sausage paired with toppings of fennel, Romano, mozzarella and sesame seeds. Curious to know whether the sausage was available in the area, we learned from our server that it’s made at a farm in Bartlett. The restaurant accepts orders from folks
who’d like to purchase the bulk sausage to use at home. Yes, it’s that good, and part of the eatery’s mantra of buying local and serving the freshest of ingredients. In addition to fresh-pressed cocktails, the bar features a thoughtful array of wines, as well as craft beers, including eight on tap. Flights are not available, but the bartender is happy to let people sample before they order. We didn’t leave enough room for the ricotta with local

First Folio play to unravel mystical mystery By ALLISON HORNE msleditorial@shawmedia.com When First Folio Theatre co-founders Alison Vesely and David Rice settled on producing “Underneath the Lintel,” the husband-and-wife team from Clarendon Hills knew they were in for a fun but difficult run with the acclaimed play. As a one-person monologue, the concept behind “Underneath the Lintel” is deceptively simple. Vesely didn’t have to search far for her lead performer, because from the very beginning, she had one person in mind — Kristine Thatcher. “She just has that wonderful, thoughtful quality,” says Vesely, who directs. “She’s very in touch with emotion, and she’s also a thinking actress, which is something required for this story. It’s an amazing journey, and before she was cast, I just kept hearing her voice saying those lines.” Vesely and her husband are long-
time friends of Thatcher, who resides in Lansing, Mich., after a 20-year stint in Chicago. “It’s been a marathon, but it’s been fascinating,” Thatcher says. “It takes all your strength, but Alison has been a wonderful director. She’s very collaborative and has been a huge help to me. I’ve never done a one-person show, and I have to say, I admire all the people I know that have.” Thatcher plays a Dutch librarian, a perfectionist whose life is turned upside down when a book is returned 113 years overdue. Intrigued, she determines to find out who returned it. The story follows her on the hunt, which leads to figuring out how to live her life in the moment. As the play opens, the librarian is poised to share a startling and profound discovery with the audience as lecture guests. The piece was written by Glen Berger as a male role, but when theaters began to adapt it for women, Berger

wrote a female lead option. While having just one person on stage the entire time might seem bland, Vesely believes it’s the exact opposite. “It’s really a journey, and when you have an actress of this caliber, you want to get sucked into the journey,” Vesely says. “There’s a certain amount of suspense as she leads you step to step. She certainly keeps you interested with the moments of humor, despair and joy.
Kristine Thatcher stars in “Underneath the Lintel.” There’s also slides, and all of these elements that she brings to the ‘lecture’ that makes it feel like she’s not giving a lecture at all, but a living, breathing piece of theater. “She has such a command of her instrument — poise, expression, physical embodiment,” Vesely adds. “She’s fascinating to watch.”

he Internet and related technologies have been a game-changer for people of all ages. The instant connectivity made possible by these advancements has been valued by young adults and children for years. But now social media is attracting an entirely different demographic – seniors. More than just a method of channeling information to the comfort of home, the Internet and the various social media platforms, including Twitter, Facebook, LinkedIn, and Instagram, are ways for older adults to stay connected with friends and family. For seniors faced with mobility issues, social media helps to bring the world to them. Despite the stereotype that seniors do not want to learn to use new technology, many seniors are getting on board. Findings from the Pew Research Institute show that social networking use among Internet users ages 50 to 64 grew by 88 percent between April 2009 and May 2010. The research also found that the percentage of those 65 and older using social media grew from 13 percent to 26 percent during that same stretch. Although young adults continue to be the primary users of social media, older users are gaining momentum and surpassing youth in the number of new users. Individuals who are not yet utilizing social media to manage their communication efforts may be inspired by these benefits to doing so. • Photo and video sharing: The majority of photos being taken today are digital, as fewer people are making prints of their photos. Rather, they are being shared via e-mail or through social media sites. Grandparents can see their grandchildren in photos in real time. Also, if they’ve managed apps that enable video sharing, they can view and chat with relatives who live miles away, just as if they were sitting across the table. • Conversations with family: In a world where families are no longer centrally located, communication may be lacking. Despite the prevalence of mobile phones,

fewer and fewer people seem to pick up the phone and make calls as they once did. Instead, they’re texting and updating social media posts. They’re also e-mailing one another. Older adults who have no access to this technology could be left out of the mix. This is a way for seniors to stay close to family. • Convenient check-ins: At times when a full-blown conversation may not be practical, having a quick method to check in with a loved one can make social media advantageous. Men and women can send a quick text to their parents to find out how they’re feeling or if they need anything. Such ready access can provide some peace of mind to adults concerned about their elderly parents. • Online shopping: Seniors who don’t get out much or who cannot safely drive a vehicle might not be able to shop as often as they would like. Having Internet access and experience with browsing Web sites enables older men and women to shop from reputable Web sites who ship items directly to the house. With the vast array of items now sold online, anyone can have their choice of items and not be forced to settle because of their age. • Improved feelings of well-being: Avoiding feelings of isolation and loneliness can benefit older men and women. A study by Dr. Shelia Cotten, a sociologist and associate professor from the University of Alabama, Birmingham, revealed that Internet use was associated with a 30 percent decrease in depressive symptoms among older adults who used it regularly, while other studies have shown similarly impressive results. • Working the mind: Going online, chatting on social media or simply writing an e-mail works areas of the brain. Typing also helps improve manual dexterity. These factors can be beneficial for seniors looking to stay sharp. Using the Internet as a form of communication is a growing trend among the 50-plus demographic. It enables them to stay connected with family and the world in a variety of ways.

Travel ideas for active seniors hose who have said goodbye to the work-a-day grind now have many hours to settle down and relax. People who have continually put off vacations in lieu of work responsibilities may now have all the time they need to explore the world. Traveling for seniors can be rewarding and relaxing. Those with a substantial retirement nest egg have numerous destinations at their disposal. Mature vacationers travel more frequently and stay longer than any other age group. Travel ranks among the top leisure activities for men and women over 50, according to the Web site Suddenly Senior. Seniors can find several travel advantages at their disposal. Also, thanks to special senior discounts, travel may be even more affordable than first expected. While certain destinations are not always practical for certain age brackets, there are many places to which seniors can visit comfortably and enjoy a wealth of memories. • Theme parks: Although theme parks may seem carved out entirely for the adventure-seekers, there are many other more placid activities that would appeal to those who prefer to keep their feet firmly on the ground rather than looping through the air on a rocket-propelled coaster. With animal preserves, water parks, fine dining, and a bevy of hotels either in the park or directly on the outskirts, theme parks provide many
T
activities for older travelers. Although theme parks require a lot of walking, many provide wheelchairs or motorized scooters for those who need to get off of their feet. They also make a great option for seniors who will be traveling with the entire family, including children. • Beach resorts: Provided flying is medically safe, a beachside vacation can be the ideal trip for seniors looking for the utmost in relaxation. For those who have passports, the possibilities are endless. Those who prefer to remain on relatively domestic soil can retreat to Puerto Rico, south Florida, the California coast, Hawaii, and the U.S. Virgin Islands. • Cruising: Cruising is a preferred vacation choice for the 50+ set because it offers the convenience of an all-inclusive package and transportation all in one. With the myriad activities offered on board, cruises are a versatile vacation option for seniors. Also, there is no need to worry about traveling far for meals and other entertainment options, as everything is self-contained on the cruise ship. For more active seniors who enjoy the daily getaway, excursions
in ports of call can provide the variety desired. • Guided tours: Seniors who want to experience a piece of history can sign up for tour packages backed by reputable companies. The tours may involve train or bus travel, and various attractions will be visited. At the end of the tour, individuals can choose to extend the vacation by checking into a hotel nearby. • RV trips: Another self-contained vacation that is entirely up to the people traveling is vacationing by recreational vehicle. Seniors can customize their routes depending on which areas they want to see. Companies like Cruise America RV enable people to rent an RV so they needn’t worry about the expense of buying one outright. However, should
RV traveling become addictive, there always is the option of buying a camper later on. Setting an itinerary and then establishing the pace enables travelers to tour the country or cross the border as desired. From beaches to national parks, many areas offer RV hook-up areas and amenities. • Exotic tour: Seniors who were never able to afford or spare the time for an extensive vacation may now want to visit those exotic locations that have beckoned for years. Now could be the time to book a ticket for Europe and visit all of the cities that have made the history books. Those looking for even more adventure can travel to the South Pacific and explore tropical islands. Others may want to go “down under” and experience the rugged Outback or the culture of Australian city centers. With a bevy of free time and fewer restrictions holding them back, seniors could be ready for the next great travel adventure.
New Solutions to your Symptoms

Kelenyi describes peripheral neuropathy as damage to the nerves, which transmits information from the brain and spinal cord to the rest of the body. “This can result in pain, loss of feeling, and inability to control muscles, such as difficulty with walking. As with any other condition, there is no “one size fits all” remedy for those suffering from neuropathies and treatment may vary depending on the cause and severity.” However, many individuals can and do find relief using natural remedies. And this is where Dr. Kelenyi steps in. Of the many causes of peripheral neuropathies”, says Dr. Kelenyi, “ a major one comes from a metabolic condition. You cannot drug your way out of a metabolic condition. It requires a change in lifestyle.” Dr. Kelenyi says “Diet is crucial when addressing peripheral neuropathy, especially in diabetics and autoimmune disorders. Harmful foods to be avoided include alcohol, sugar, processed foods, fast foods, junk foods, sodas of all types, foods sprayed with pesticides, and trans-fatty acids. Sweeteners and additives contained in diet soda and processed foods such as MSG and aspartame can negatively impact the nervous system.” As a chiropractor with advanced training in Functional Medicine and Functional Neurology, Dr. Kelenyi performs specific metabolic and neurologic tests to help determine what is causing the problem. There are a few primary types of neuropathies: Large or small diameter or both as well as motor. If jerking is involved then it can be as much a problem
in the brain due to trans-neural degeneration as it is in the peripheral nerve. A thorough and comprehensive exam ensures an accurate diagnosis. Dr Kelenyi states that her peripheral neuropathy recovery program is a combination of different cutting edge techniques and protocols. “ We may use electrical stimulation with 7.83 Hz frequencies, exercise with oxygen, vibration, spinal decompression, cold laser therapy along with brain balance therapies With this layered approach we can “wake up” the nerves so they can functional normally again and re-educate nerve pathways that have gone hay-
wire. “While we wake up your nerves, we will support their need for fuel and activation.” Dr. Kelenyi says “Our solutions are non-drug, non-surgical approaches, that are researched based and determined by prior clinical success. The reason we achieve excellent outcomes is because we take both a
metabolic and neurological approach in our program.” She says its a very rewarding way of practicing. “We get chronically ill people coming from all over the Chicagoland area, even out of state, to our clinic. The most important thing for these patients is results. We get results.”

f you suffer from a single one of these torturous symptoms- numbness, tingling, burning or sharp nerve pain, then read on ..A new breakthrough treatment could change your life. Neuropathy can affect every part of your life - walking, sitting ,sleeping, socializing, your ability to enjoy your relationships and so much more. If you have tired “everything” (Anodyne therapy, physical therapy, Lyrica, Neurotin or other meds ) without getting the results you want then this may be the most important information that you ever read. There is a simple reason that most treatments fail....because at best they only cover up your symptoms and do not heal your damaged nerves. Peripheral neuropathy is a condition that affects people in every walk of life. It is estimated that 20 million Americans and 60% of diabetics suffer from this disorder. There are many kinds of neuropathy, the symptoms of which include burning, tingling, weakness, numbness, paralysis, and dull to excruciating pain - especially in the hands and feet. Although many neuropathies have no known causes, neuropathy is often associated with other conditions. Examples are: Diabetes, shingles, toxins, autoimmune disorders, bulging discs that compress on nerves, spinal stenosis, arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, and poor nutrition. Statin drugs and chemotherapy can also cause neuropathy. For the last two years Dr. Susan Kelenyi, DC of Glen Ellyn, IL has worked extensively with peripheral neuropathy patients. Dr.

BASEBALL PREVIEW | HINSDALE CENTRAL
HINSDALE — After a twoyear hiatus from coaching Hinsdale Central baseball, Tom Dorrance returns to the dugout looking to turn their fortunes after a tough 2012. He’s got the weapons to do exactly that, especially on the mound. “I think we’re loaded in the arms department,” Dorrance said. “I’ve never had this much pitching depth. I’ve been coaching for 23 years and 11 years at the varsity level, and I’ve never had this much pitching.” Three senior hurlers have committed to play at the Division I level: Christian Bokich (Miami of Ohio), Adam Dressler (Purdue) and Bobby Skogsbergh (Boston College). Another pitcher, Tom Concklin, has committed to Division III Washington and Lee University. Basil Arain provides a left-hander on the mound and Austin Butler, Andrew Eck and Aaron Walsh add to the pitching depth. “All these rainouts aren’t going to hurt us because we have so many guys that can throw the ball well,” Dorrance said. “I think our No. 4 and 5 pitchers are better than other teams’ fours and fives.” The pitching staff will be even better with Tyler Ward bringing a wealth of experience to the catcher position. Matt Silk, who was hampered by injuries last season, will be a key to the defense at shortstop. The defense could in turn be key to keeping the Red Devils competitive. “I think second base and third base were kind of a revolving door last year,” Dorrance said. “Last year we committed over 100 errors. We’ve got to clean that up if we’re going to compete.” Dorrance said that because of the weather, Central has been outside to practice just three times. “The defense is still a question mark, but we’re working

on it,” he said. Dorrance is also preaching a new approach at the plate that will hopefully reverse Central’s inability to come up with clutch hits last year. “We’re teaching patience at the plate,” Dorrance said. “Good balance, good hand speed and don’t commit until the ball gets deep in the zone. Trust your hands and trust your bat speed and hit the ball to the right side.” When Dorrance was named head coach in December, he met with his players and asked for some preliminary goals for this season. From then to now, the goals have gone from have fun and have a good season to winning conference and competing for a state title. It’s a testament to the kinds of players he is coaching. “It’s a great group of kids. Any one of them you’d want to take them home and feed them dinner,” Dorrance said. “I’ve enjoyed the last few weeks even though we’ve been inside almost the whole time.”

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com DARIEN —As Hinsdale South’s baseball team gets set to defend the West Suburban gold title it won last spring, there are questions. As in, what is the Hornets’ greatest strength? Is it the infield, which returns starters that can play third base, shortstop and second base? Is it the pitching staff, which returns Mike Marrera, who went 6-0 and carried a 1.38 ERA last spring, and goes seven or eight deep? Could it be the batting order that sees the bats near the top of the order return? Or could it be the speed on the basepaths? In the field, Don Buonavolanto is back at shortstop and Jerry Stoltz can play three of the four infield spots. Grant Morford can play either corner infield spot and pitches, and Mike Rizzo can play first when not pitching. “We’ve got good flexibility there,” coach Paul Hoel said. “We’ve got five our six guys that can play any spot.” Matt Reschke and D.J. Deolitsis are both back in the outfield. Marrera can play right when not pitching. Hoel is hoping a fourth outfielder emerges. “That’s going to be huge because we’re going to need another outfielder when Marrera pitches,” the coach said. The pitching staff will be headed by Marrera, but after that it’s up for grabs, in a good way. “I really like our pitching depth. We have eight pitchers that all look about the same,” Hoel said. “They’re all twos and threes. They’re all going to get their opportunities.” Reschke, left-hander Mike Rizzo, Eric Benson, Mike Mullaney, John Uba and Mike

90.6 South’s stolen base percentage last spring. The Hornets stole 116 bases and were caught just 12 times. Meyers should earn starts at some point, with the bullpen sorting itself out as the season progresses. Deolitsis is expected right near the top of the order. The all-conference selection swiped 31 bases last spring, and advancing runners and stealing bases will once again be the Hornets preferred style of offense. “Offense is the big question mark,” Hoel said. “We have good speed and we run really well, but you can’t steal first. We’ve got to swing the bats and get on, then hit and run and bunt guys over.” Downers Grove South and Willowbrook figure to be South’s main competition for a conference crown. In order for the Hornets to defend their title, it’s going to take everyone on the team coming through when their numbers are called. “We’ve got 19 kids and we’re looking for all of them to contribute,” Hoel said. “We need all 19. It’s definitely going to be a team effort.”

there, we know everyone can get the job done.” Prior to taking home the regional title, the Mission, which heads to Pittsburgh with a 47-11-4 record, won the state championship by topping the Chicago Young Americans, the Chicago Fury and Team Illinois in a bestof-three championship series. The postseason success gives the Mission a boost of confidence heading into the national championships. “We do have a lot of confidence. Winning gives you a lot of confidence, but it also can make you unsatisfied,” LaPointe said. “We won state and regionals, but we’re not satisfied. We want to win nationals and be totally satisfied.” A majority of the current Mission team played for a national title at the Pee Wee level in 2009 and fell in the championship game.

have come up short at nationals before. LaPointe has experienced third- and second-place finishes at nationals. “The fact that you’ve been there and come up short, it gets really frustrating,” LaPointe said. “We have to show the younger guys we mean business and we’re going there to win it because losing is not fun.” “We’re not trying to think too much about that,” Floodstrand said of the previous championship tournaments. “I think we have more will to win now than we did before. We’re really ready to go in there and do some damage.” The close calls at nationals can provide some motivation to avoid a similar fate, and the big-game experience could give the team an edge over its opponents. “I think for some teams that haven’t really been there before, I think it gives us an edge,” Fitzgerald said. This year’s championship tournament will be a little different, at least in terms of who will be watching. Michael said the Midget Minor level is when college coaches, junior coaches and pro scouts start intensifying their searches for players. It’s a fact not lost on the Mission. “I think this year is the year that it really matters how we do,” Warpecha said. “The spotlight is really on this age group.” “I’m sure everyone on our team has big plans and the potential to play D-I hockey or even junior hockey, and the coaches have told us that junior coaches, college coaches and even pro scouts will be

WOODRIDGE — Pittsburgh will be the epicenter of youth hockey starting Wednesday, and four local members of the Chicago Mission will be a part of it. Kevin Fitzgerald (Hinsdale/Hinsdale Central), Michael Floodstrand (Hinsdale/ Fenwick), Guyot LaPointe (Hinsdale/Hinsdale Central) and Daniel Warpecha (Burr Ridge/Hinsdale South) are part of the Mission’s U16 Tier I Midget Minor team that will aim to take home a title next week at the USA Hockey National Championships. “Obviously it’s an honor,” Warpecha said of playing for the championship. “It’s not a right, it’s a privilege, and I think we earned it because we have a good team.” The Mission’s quality was on display March 15-17 as it won three games in Fond du Lac, Wis. to take home the Central regional title. The team had one-goal wins over the St. Louis Blues and Team Wisconsin before blasting Omaha 4-0 for the championship. The on-ice success is a product of what the Mission does off the ice. “They are very dedicated and very motivated,” coach Chris Michael said. “Team success breeds individual success. We have a very close group. They get along with each other, they care about each other and they push each other.” “I think on the ice, everyone is totally confident in each other,” Fitzgerald said. “It doesn’t matter who is doing it.

An optical illusion is an image you see with your eyes that is different from what is really on the paper. It’s a way to trick your mind to see something that doesn’t really exist.

your eyes to see something that isn’t there? — By Anne Raih, GateHouse News Service

It looks like the lines inside the concentric circles are bent, but if you grab a ruler or another straight edge, you will see they are perfectly straight. What is causing you to see the square in this way?
