County goes on the road Transportation, attorneys and highway engineer discussed

By Donna Barker dbarker@bcrnews.com.

PRINCETON – Transportation projects, attorneys and the reappointment of the county highway engineer were on the agenda for Tuesday’s meeting of the Bureau County Board.

In one of five resolutions, Transportation Committee Chairman Steve Sondgeroth presented a resolution requesting consent from the Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) to reappoint John Gross as Bureau County’s highway engineer for another sixyear term. Gross’s current six-year contract expires on the last day of July.

By procedure, Bureau County has to go first to IDOT for its approval of Gross’s re-appointment, since the engineer’s salary is split 50/50 between IDOT and the county, Sondgeroth said. After IDOT’s approval is received, the county board will take action on Gross’s reappointment at its July meeting.

PRINCETON — Representatives of area governmental bodies will meet next week with representatives of the Illinois Emergency Management Agency to learn about the process of getting federal assistance for flood damage costs incurring in the spring.

On Tuesday, Bureau County Emergency Services Disaster Agency coordinator Kris Donarski announced the meeting will be at 9 a.m.

Wednesday at the Bureau County Metro Center, located at 837 Park Ave. West in Princeton.

The June 19th public assistance program briefing will be conducted for local government organizations, including counties, townships, municipalities, school districts and other special districts, as well as certain private non-profit organizations which provide services of a governmental nature, Donarski said. The organizations must have incurred extraordinary costs, at least $1,000 of eligible costs, from the severe storms, straightline winds and flooding that occurred from April 16 through May 5.

The briefing is being held for potential applicants in Bureau, Marshall, Ogle, Putnam and Stark counties.

The June 19th briefing will be about 60 to 90 minutes in length and provide an overview of the public assistance program and application process. Application forms and assistance with completing the forms will be provided at the briefing, Donarski said.

At least one representative from each applicant organization should try to attend Wednesday’s briefing. The representative should be the person who will administer

A dead end street (program)?

Spring Valley studies its options

By Brock Cooper news@bcrnews.com

SPRING VALLEY — The city of Spring Valley is still unclear exactly if any street program will be happening this year. The city only has $40,000 to spend from the Motor Fuel Tax, and Spring Valley Streets and Alleys Committee Chairman Chuck Hansen wants to roll it into next year.

“My suggestion is we wouldn’t have a street program this year,” Hansen said at Monday’s council meeting.

Council members recently met at a streets and alleys meeting to discuss possible projects, but near the end of the meeting, Hansen realized the city had much less money than he thought. Many on the council wanted to use the money to possibly pour concrete in an area near Kirby Park at a cost of $32,000.

The area has had to be dug up several times because of water issues, and the question arose — what if it needs to be dug up again? There will be a Streets and Alleys Committee meeting at 6:30 p.m.

June 20 to continue this discussion. There will be a Finance and a Legislative Committee meeting to follow.

One thing everyone seemed to agree on is that the city needs to find some alternative way to fund the street program.

Walnut librarian Michele McAlvey shows just a few items that will be auctioned off at a silent auction during the annual Walnut Days Celebration. The library is collecting items from local businesses, as well as, local artists and crafters. The monies raised in the auction will go toward the library’s fund to purchase a new heating and cooling system.

Wanted: A new HVAC system for Walnut Library Community fundraisers planned to pay for a new system

By Goldie Currie gcurrie@bcrnews.com

WALNUT – The Walnut Public Library Board has taken on several fundraising projects to help raise money for a new heating and cooling system for the library.

Librarian Michele McAlvey explained the current HVAC system is original to the building, which was built in 1964.

“It’s still operating, but it’s being held together by basically baling wire,” she said.

With a project cost of just over $25,000 hanging over board members’ heads, they’ve brainstormed fundraising projects for each month this year to help raise enough funds to replace the HVAC system sometime next year.

“Coming from a small town, when we do our fundraising, it’s just little bits and pieces here and there at a time, and you’re not going to get big time money coming in,” McAlvey said.

Use Princeton Pharmacy’s convenient drive-up window for easy prescription drop-off or pick-up.

She also has plans to re-apply for a 50/50 grant the beginning of next year to help with the cost.

Last week, the library held an electronic recycle drive, where they filled two moving trucks full of electronics.

McAlvey explained the company who takes the electronics will sell off the parts, and the library will receive that money.

The library is also hosting an ongoing cell phone drive. Patrons who own an old cellphone and don’t have a clue what to do with it are encouraged to bring

County From Page 1 As reported earlier in the Bureau County Republican, Bureau County and the Illinois Department of Transportation will each pay $49,469 for the county highway engineer’s salary, with the county’s share to be paid from local motor fuel taxes.

Dealing with other resolutions presented by Sondgeroth, the county board granted a contract to MicroSurfacing LLC for cape seal and other improvement work for Backbone Road (County Highway 9) with a low bid of $235,489. The required 20 percent of local funds from federal aid matching at a cost of $47,097.

The county board also awarded the con-

it to the library. The cell phones will be given to the electronics company, which will sell parts and give profits to the library.

The library’s upcoming July fundraiser is a silent auction, which will be held during the annual Walnut Days Celebration.

“We have a very large contingency of crafting people in the area, and so the board has been going around to businesses and these people who are well known for their crafting and asking them to donate items to the silent auction,”

McAlvey said.

Currently the library has collected an Americana wicker basket, a homemade shelving unit, a wood-carved squirrel feeder and two sets of baseball tickets. The first set is to the July 19 White Sox vs. Atlanta Braves game and the second set is the Aug. 2 Cubs vs. Los Angeles Dodgers game.

“Whenever we say we need something, the community just rallies around us and gives what we need. We’re very lucky,” McAlvey said.

tract for culvert hotmix asphalt patch work on county roads to McDonald Trucking and Paving at a low bid of $28,435.

The board also unanimously approved the seal coat work contract for various county highways to Pavement Maintenance Services with a bid of $169,942. This was the only bid received for this project, Sondgeroth said.

In other transportation action, Sondgeroth said the Transportation Committee had a bid letting on June 10 for needed materials and maintenance work for the county’s crack seal maintenance program. Several bids were received and considered during the committee meeting prior to Tuesday’s board meeting, resulting in the committee’s recommendation to accept the

bid from the Ace in the Hole Co., at a cost of $45,771. The bid acceptance is contingent upon an eight-day required time period for any possible bid protests, which means the final award date would be June 18, Sondgeroth said.

Also, the board agreed to hire attorney Cheryl Kuzma to represent the county as it works on a new road agreement with Geronimo Energy, new owners of the proposed Walnut Ridge wind farm.

The existing road agreement has expired, Sondgeroth said. Preliminary discussions have begun on a new road agreement between the county and Geronimo Energy. Her salary will be paid by the wind farm developer, at no cost to the county, Sondgeroth said.

DePue dives into sewer back-up issues

By Goldie Currie gcurrie@bcrnews.com

DEPUE – The flooding caused by heavy April rains left several Bureau County residents with sewage backup floating in their basements.

The issue has prompted several village boards, including DePue, to begin investigating ways to solve the issues causing the back up.

At this week’s village board meeting, DePue Trustee Dan Hoffert brought up the idea of purchasing a $6,570 flow meter, which would be used to measure water flow in the sewer pipes at given times of the day.

Hoffert believes the flow meter will help narrow down or target problem locations in the piping that either need to be repaired or rerouted to allow better flow.

After the meeting, Hoffert said some villages rent out neighboring communities’ flow meters, however, when flooding occurs in all communities, available flood meters are hard to come by. This is a major reason why Hoffert believes the village would benefit from owning their own flow meter.

At the meeting, Mayor Eric Bryant questioned whether a flow meter would be more efficient than hiring a company to come in with a camera to film inside the sewer pipes to get a better look at what may be the issue in the piping.

Hoffert’s issue with using a camera is the cost. He said companies charge about .50 cents to a dollar per foot to

run a camera through the piping.

This could easily get expensive, especially when the village doesn’t know an exact location of where their piping problem exists.

Running a camera through several feet of piping adds up fast, he said. Using the flow meter will better pinpoint the area that needs to be assessed.

Bryant wanted to get more information on flow meter before approving to purchase one. The board tabled the decision to purchase the equipment.

In other news, the board: • Agreed to pay Gasvoda of Calumet City $6,619 to make repairs to the White City lift station.

• Amended a village ordinance to accommodate service animals not otherwise recognized as house pets.

• Approved a 3 percent raise to all village employees.

• Agreed to spend $175 to purchase a fullpage advertisement for the APBA Boat Races program.

• Approved an intergovernment agreement with Selby Township.

Bryant said Selby Township Highway Commissioner George Glover and village Superintendent of Public Works Bruce Yuvan are working together to finds ways they can help each other out.

• Approved a $200 donation to Cops for Cancer.

Dam application withdrawn The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has withdrawn the village’s application to build a temporary dam in the channel that connects Lake DePue and the Illinois River. The village was hoping to build a temporary dam that would last two and one-half years, which would have given enough time until a decision was made on whether or not a permanent dam could be built in its place. The Corps has stated two and one-half years is too long of a request for a temporary dam and have encouraged the village to continue working toward the permanent dam. Bryant said if conditions return where the lake drops to low levels and the APBA Boat Races are threatened, the Corps will accept an application to permit a temporary sandbag structure, which was used last summer before the boat races.

Walking in remembrance Families and friends from throughout the area gather Saturday in Princeton for the fourth annual Living Works Suicide Walk from Darius Miller Park, down Main Street, to Zearing Park. Organized by founder Chris Compton, the Living Works event raises funds to help with local suicide intervention training and grief support for those who’ve lost loved ones to suicide. The speaker at Saturday’s event was Putnam County native Leah Rolando. Music was provided by the Long Ladder Home band. As in previous years, Saturday’s event also included a memorial signing wall, a gift raffle and balloon launch.

Rich resigns from Wyanet Board Water bills and water tower also on the agenda

By Becky Kramer news@bcrnews.com

WYANET – The resignation of a village board member occupied the closed session of the Wyanet Village Board The board ultimately accepted the resignation of Trustee Kim Rich following the closed session Tuesday night. No reasons were given for the resignation.

The board will now need to appoint two trustees to fill the seats of Tom Odell and Rich.

In the last election, Odell did not seek re-election as a trustee, rather he ran for the Wyanet mayoral. He was defeated in the race, which leaves his trustee seat available.

Wyanet Police Chief Todd Marquez provided the board with his department’s monthly activity report. The board also approved several repairs to both vehicles used by the police department.

Other police/traffic business was discussed including a stop sign which has been requested on North Street at Arch Street. Residents along North Street have noticed cars driving at excess speeds down that road. Marquez and village engineer Jack Kusek will look into the matter, and it will be discussed at the next meeting.

Wyanet has received a grant that will provide the village with reflective stop signs that meet new state requirements.

Village President Bruce Hand advised the board all work has been completed on the water tower, and Kusek indicated the inspection has also been done. Hand apologized to all residents and businesses for any inconvenience incurred while the water tower was being repaired.

Many residents have complained about their water bills recently. The board wants to remind residents that the yearly 3 percent increase went into effect in March; in April the water bills were estimated. The most recent bills were based on the meter readings. The village owns a machine that can check residents’ water usage if needed.

The new roof has been installed on the bathrooms in the park, and painting will begin next week. Work on the concession stand will follow. The dugouts at the ball diamond have been stained. Work on the volleyball court will start in hopes it can be used this summer.

Also, work will continue to improve parking at the ball diamond.

A motion was passed to purchase gravel for a new parking lot on the north side of Fifth Street, west of the diamond. People attending games should be reminded there is no parking along the street.

In other business: • The board is continuing its discussion with Bureau Valley School and Superintendent Dennis Thompson regarding pick up and drop off at the school.

A plan will be in place when school resumes in August that will provide a safe alternative to parking along Fourth Street.

rinceton Area Chamber of Commerce

• After closed session, the board accepted a bid in the amount of $500 for the property at Locust Street and the alley by the tracks that the village purchased from the railroad.

The next meeting of the Wyanet Village Board is at 7 p.m. July 9 at the Village Hall.

TISKILWA — The Tiskilwa Village Board on Tuesday approved a tentative budget for the current fiscal year of $1,049,000, a decrease of about $68,000 from the previous year.

Mayor Randy Philhower told village board members the garbage contract was increased $5,000 per year while motor fuel tax went down about $60,000 since no streets will be seal coated this year. The budget ordinance will be approved at the board’s meeting in July.

Instead of seal coating the village’s streets, board members voted to spend up to $7,500 to spray patch the streets with Ace in the Hole of Washburn.

Village Engineer Jack

Spring Valley From Page 1 For the next eight years, the city will only receive about $50,000 a year from the motor fuel tax for street improvements.

There is a grant avenue available, but it comes with restrictions. The city could need to come up with roughly $300,000 to get about $700,000 in grant money.

As

Kusek told board members that work is finished on the first sand filter at the sewer plant. Board members approved paying a bill of about $18,000 from Area Wide Septic Services of Arlington for this company’s work on the project. The total cost is estimated to be around $48,000 for the sewer plant when the second sand filter work is completed.

Kusek said the water tank level project will be completed when Ameren is able to install electricity to complete the telemetry system.

Philhower told board members that a meeting will be held at 9 a.m.

Wednesday at the Bureau County Metro Center for municipalities to see whether federal funds will

be available to reimburse them for work done as a result of the flooding in April. Philhower doubted whether work done in Tiskilwa would be eligible to receive federal funds.

Trustee Eric Paull said he might be able to attend the meeting since Philhower won’t be able to do so. The mayor also said he wasn’t sure whether Tiskilwa had $5,000 in eligible expenses, and the amount of time needed to fill out the paperwork wouldn’t be worth it in the amount of federal monies coming back to the village coffers.

Board members voted to retain village employee John Nye, who has worked for the village of Tiskilwa for six months and to give him an automatic 50-cents an hour raise and to now

pay for his health insurance costs. A raise of 43 cents an hour for village employee Rick Funderberg and 50-cents an hour raise for police officers were also approved.

Trustees also approved the prevailing wage ordinance and heard that an electronic recycling day will be held from 9 a.m. to noon June 22 at West Park where residents can bring in electrical items and appliances that can’t be thrown in the garbage.

A fee will be charged for some items taken that day by M & M Recycling of Peoria, who collected three pickup loads at last year’s recycling day. It will be held one day after the village’s annual cleanup day, set for June 21.

In other business: • A resident from 702 E. Erie St. wants to have a motorcross track shut down for noise and illegal dumping. The area is zoned M1, which does allow for sport and recreation as long as there is a special use permit. The resident wanted the city to intervene and had retained a lawyer in case the city could not solve the problem. Spring Valley Police

Chief Kevin Sangston said he would meet with the resident and find out more about the possible dumping.

• Mayor Walt Marini said he met with residents knowledgeable about the insurance industry and discussed what else the city could have paid for at the water treatment plant besides what was simply damaged by the flood. He plans on meeting with the

insurance company soon.

• Street superintendent John Schultz said there were three bids to replace the air conditioning system at the wastewater treatment plant. Grassers had the lowest bid at $3,995.

No concealed carry just yet SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois State Police, Illinois Association of Chiefs of Police and the Illinois Sheriff’s Association have issued a public safety advisory in response to numerous inquiries from citizens to the Illinois State Police Firearm Services Bureau, that it will continue to enforce Illinois’ current unlawful use of a weapon statute in all jurisdictions. Current Illinois law prohibits the carrying of an immediately accessible or loaded firearm on your person or in your vehicle regardless of whether it is concealed. Persons in violation are subject to arrest. On June 4, the Seventh Circuit Court of Appeals extended the time for the current law to remain in place until July 9, or when a new law goes into effect, whichever occurs first. ISP Director Hiram Grau is reminding the public that HB183, which was recently passed by the legislature, is currently under review, pursuant to the Illinois Constitution by Gov. Pat Quinn. It has not yet become law.

The most successful man in the world I’m about to celebrate my 16th Father’s Day without the star of the show.

(No disrespect to my husband – who’s a wonderful father – but he’s not my father, you know?)

My Dad was Carl Bunge, born and raised on a farm about 40 miles northwest of Davenport.

Dad was a farm boy, but he was also the oldest of four sons. That meant his father didn’t need him to stay on the farm, so Dad headed for the bright lights of the big city COMMENTARY (Davenport) and married himself a big city girl.

Anyone who knew my Dad could tell you what a great guy he was. He worked hard for Jaydon Inc., a non-food distributor located in Milan. He left the house early in the morning and came home late at night after delivering health and beauty products throughout the Quad Cities area.

One of the highlights of my summers when I was probably about 10 or 12 was going with my Dad on his route one day. I’d help straighten the shelves – something I still do in grocery stores to this day! – and then stack the new merchandise. I remember he’d buy a quart of chocolate milk at the first store, and we’d take turns sipping from the carton between us.

I wasn’t much of an athlete, but Dad tried his best. I played Dad’s Club softball for a couple of years, and Dad, who never had a son, patiently showed me how to throw and bat and catch.

Dad was a simple man with simple pleasures.

He loved his God and his family and his Cubbies, not necessarily in that order all the time.

He wasn’t much of a reader, but one of his prized possessions was a copy of “Mr. Cub,” Ernie Banks’ autobiography.

He was a faithful church-goer, serving on church boards and singing in the choir. He even sang with me at my church, St. John’s in Peru, and our minister graciously offered him his own set of offering envelopes.

And his family was everything to him. He loved his wife and two daughters, and he was happy to expand that love to his two sons-inlaw.

And to his grandchildren.

One of my most cherished photos wouldn’t win any photography awards. The flash didn’t go off, and the picture is mostly dark. But it’s a photo of my Dad holding my first-born, and I treasure it.

Dad only got to meet six of his grandchildren.

The seventh – his namesake Carly – was born almost a month after Dad died.

Dad’s legacy lives on in big and small ways.

The eternal Cubs’ fan’s cry of “There’s always next year!” lives on in several of his grandchildren, and his set of lawn darts – the old fashioned ones with the points that could put out an eye – are a cherished inheritance my children argue about.

Many years before he died, I gave Dad a plaque with the Robert Louis Stevenson poem, “That Man is a Success.” It summed up my father far better than I ever could.

Dad indeed “lived well, laughed often and loved much” and left the world a far better place than he found it.

Thanks for everything, Dad. Barb Kromphardt is a staff writer for the BCR and the managing editor for the Tonica News and Putnam County Record. She can be reached at bkromphardt@bcrnews.com or bkromphardt@ tonicanews.com.

TO Letters THE Editor

Vision: ‘A world without Alzheimer’s’ To the Editor, It has been brought to our attention there may be some confusion regarding the Alzheimer’s Association and the role we play within central Illinois. We would like to take this opportunity to clarify our mission and ask that you continue to support the efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association-Central Illinois Chapter.

There are five million people living with Alzheimer’s disease in the United States today, and 210,000 live in the state of Illinois.

The Alzheimer’s Association is the premier organization for people with Alzheimer’s disease and their families, supporting research and providing for the care and support of persons with the disease and their family members, along with promoting brain health.

Our vision is a world without Alzheimer’s, and we believe one day our vision will be a reality.

The Alzheimer’s Association-Central Illinois Chapter provides a wide range of programs and services to area residents including a 24/7, tollfree Helpline, information and referral services, care consultations, educational programs, support groups, safety services and online programs. In addition, we match volunteers who are interested in clinical trials through our TrialMatch program, provide physician outreach and advocate at local, state and federal levels.

Our activities are supported by many events, including the LaSalle County Walk To End Alzheimer’s, which is scheduled for 6 p.m. Sept. 12 at Baker Lake in Peru.

We thank all who have supported our efforts in the past and we hope

to have your support in the future.

To learn more about our programs and services, visit us at alz. org/illinoiscentral.

For more information about the Alzheimer’s Association and the Central Illinois Chapter, to become a corporate sponsor or to register a walk team, please contact us at 800-272-3900.

Use common sense To the Editor, Independence Day will soon be here. My children and grandkids love the fireworks. I believe smaller towns with no local police have a problem with fireworks that bigger towns don’t. Yes, most of them are illegal but are tolerated with few problems.

I would like to appeal

to all those who have backyard fireworks. It would be nice to have a couple days like July 3 and July 4 and certain hours like 8 to 10 p.m. to do your thing. There are a lot of us who have problems, and fireworks five nights in a row or at midnight or 1 a.m. makes our problems worse.

I have talked to veterans from the two Middle East wars as well as Vietnam and World War II. Yes, once in a while we find ourselves on the bedroom floor. And it’s not just the big M-80s, etc. A small firecracker with it’s distinct “POP” sounds very much like an AK-47.

I am not a party pooper. Just asking if it wouldn’t be nice to think of other people and use a little bit of common sense. Light ‘em up at a decent time, and not a week in a row. Have a great 4th, everyone. Be careful!

Honor Rolls — LaMoille High School and Dalzell Grade School release Honor Roll lists. See Page 8.

Free yoga event in Neponset NEPONSET — Neponset Pride will host “Yoga Around the Gazebo” on June 20 in Bertelsen Park in downtown Neponset.

A beginner yoga class for all ages will be presented from 7 to 8 p.m.

Neponset native Carol Golby-Saunders is offering a free yoga session to all area residents.

Golby-Saunders, who grew up on a farm south of Neponset, has taught yoga in Show Low, Ariz., where she and her husband, Dave, reside, and for the past year has been teaching yoga part-time in The Marshall Islands in the South Pacific. She is a certified Hatha and Yoga of the Heart instructor, is registered with Yoga Alliance, and has been teaching yoga since 1998.

She and her husband Dave will be visiting her dad, John Golby,

Golby-Saunders and other relatives in the area, and thought it would be fun to offer the free classes in Neponset. Previous yoga classes have been offered in Neponset in 2008 and 2010 by Golby-Saunders and were attended by all age groups — from small children to senior citizens.

The Neponset yoga classes will feature an integrative, gentle, noncompetitive and playful style of yoga for men, women and children.

Area residents of all ages will learn stretching, breathing and relaxation techniques that can be used in the office or at home. She suggests that interested persons bring a yoga mat, rug or towel to the classes. She also suggests wearing comfortable clothing. For those less mobile, just bring yourself and Carol will teach you how to stretch while seated in a chair or while using a chair to help you keep your balance.

According to GolbySaunders, the health benefits of yoga are significant. “Yoga can help to reduce stress, increase energy levels, improve

balance and focus one’s attention.” She adds that “Even if you don’t plan to participate and you’re curious, feel free to stop by to say hello!”

The gazebo, built in 2012, was dedicated last August in memory of Carol’s mother, Barbara Golby. Carol was not able to get back to Neponset at that time to attend the ceremony, so she thought it would be fun to offer the yoga event at the gazebo.

Refreshments will be served after the session.

In case of rain, the event will be held at Neponset Community Building, one block west of Bertelsen Park.

For more information about the event, contact Marty Golby at 309-9457750 or Pat Weeks at 309-594-2544.

The event will feature themed refreshment stops, mobile emergency first aid, water, air and bike transportation.

At the conclusion of the ride, each rider will be provided a complimentary lunch at Zearing Park.

Additionally, a limited quantity of Z Tour Bike Ride dri-fit sport T-shirts and cycling socks will be available for purchase. A

commemorative Z Tour Bike Ride jersey will also be made available for purchase.

Brian Church, Z Tour director, remarked, “We are really looking forward to continue to build on the success of the first two events. This year, we are hoping to host at least 400 riders. Our steering committee strongly believes that this area has some of the best cycling roads in Illinois and an

organized road ride like Z Tour will showcase our local merchants and the surrounding communities. It is also a great way to promote benefits and services offered at the Zearing Child Enrichment Center.”

Let the games begin Area athletes gear up for Summer Games

Tigresses Volleyball Camp There was some volleyball going on during Tuesday’s morning first session of the Princeton Tigresses Volleyball Camp where Taylor Wetsel (at right, from left) and Zoe Starkey were practicing their passing. But there was also fun and games as the girls (above) in the grades 3-5 session enjoy one of the favorites, “Chicken on the Hill.”

This year’s camp is being held at Pannebaker Gym at Logan Junior High School.

Thursday is the last day of camp.

it before. I’ve never been not working,” said Slevin, who will turn 71 in August.

“It was a childhood dream and miraculously sent me around to a job that I’ve had for 42 years, And it’s hard to say goodbye, but I know that there are beginnings and ends to everything and this is the end.”

Slevin didn’t just broadcast games. He made you a part of the broadcast whether you were at home listening in Spring Valley or sitting there in the stands. He always brought a personal touch to his broadcast, commenting that “Mike from

Mendota is here. How are you doing Mike?” Or, “I see Kevin Hieronymus is here covering the game for the Bureau County Republican.

I bet he’s going to listen to tonight’s Cardinals game.”

Always appreciated those cheap plugs.

His first radio job came in sales with WRPC in Lincoln.

The station was granted its first license to broadcast at night and decided they’d do the highly popular Lincoln Railer basketball games on the air. Before, they’d tape some games and play them the next day.

The Green River Lines picked them all up at Sullivan’s at one o’clock on May 31 and headed north.

pay you anything, but you’re in sales and you can sell them,’” he said. “I’d never been on the radio before. It was brand new, it was nerve wrecking and terribly exciting. Since they weren’t paying me anything that’s what they got out of if. If they were paying me, they’d probably fire me because I was so terrible.”

Well, they didn’t and that opportunity spurred his next venture to the Illinois Valley, going on air in October of 1972. At WLPO, he faced the challenge of taking over for Art Kimball, a talented sports broadcaster with a legendary baritone voice.

“I came in to replace Art Kimball. My voice was never as good and my voice was never as crisp. I told Joanne, ‘I don’t know if I can do this job. I’d come home and tell Joanne. Everybody’s comparing me to Art and I can’t be Art. I’ve only been in this business for a year and a half.’

“So it was really tough. She said, ‘Why don’t you just be yourself.’

I said that makes it a lot easier. I did and kind of grew into the job.”

He really never planned to stay in the Illinois Valley, a typical young broadcaster with an eye toward the bigger jobs in bigger cities. Then something strange happened, he fell in love with the Illinois Valley.

“That dream of being somewhere else got put on hold. It was not that I was in a comfort zone, but that I enjoyed what I was doing so much,” he said. “And nobody asked me about trying to

replace Art Kimball. Funny how 40 years takes care of that.”

He’s enjoyed covering high school sports because of the purity that comes with it, unlike what you find sometimes in the pro and collegiate ranks.

Slevin started to wean toward retirement the past three years by taking the summers off and working throughout the school year. He is grateful the Miller Media Group allowed him to continue to work until his youngest child, Joshua, graduate from college this spring.

Seven of the Slevin’s nine children were born here, all educated at St. Bede Academy. The family’s time has not come without sadness, losing son Patrick at age 3 1/2 in 1979 to leukemia. The Slevins soon outgrew their little house they were renting in Oglesby and bought the Victorian house they live in now in Peru.

Slevin has far too many memorable moments, too many games to list, like St. Bede’s 1988 state baseball championship, L-P’s football state title games in the ‘70s and all the Colmone Classic basketball games at Hall.

There is one day, however, that stands out in the ‘70s when he covered an L-P state semifinal football game in southern Illinois and IVCC football team in the Midwest Bowl at home all in the same day.

“The station flew me down in a little plane, a four-seater,” Slevin said. “We left from the Spring Valley in a landing strip, the ‘Spring Valley airport,’ not to be confused with O’Hare and flew down to Belleville and did a game down there.

They flew me back here and they had a car waiting for me and drove me to Fellows Stadium. The

people were already filing in there and I went up and did the IVCC game in the Midwest Bowl all in one day, many miles away. It was the only time anything like that ever happened.”

A man of deep faith, Slevin would like to get involved in Christian radio and teach classes at his church. A big part of the retirement plan includes spending time with his bride of 43 years and visiting with his eight grandchildren, six of which live out of state.

“Joanne and I have never really been anywhere together. I was kidding her and saying, ‘you and I should take a second honeymoon because we haven’t had time to take one.’ After 43 years of marriage, it’s time that we did some things before the Lord calls us home.”

I made sure I tuned into Slevin’s broadcasts whenever I include this past school year. I knew the voice would become silent soon. How neat that his last broadcast came at the state level with the St. Bede Lady Bruins softball team Slevin would like to sign off quietly. WLPO won’t allow him.

Friday morning will be officially be “Lanny Slevin Day at WLPO with listeners able to call in to share their favorite Lanny memories. If you have enjoyed him as much as I have be sure to tune in and call in to the station to tell him thanks. Feel free to toast him also. He’d like that.

Lanny Slevin is a true professional, a Christian man and a good friend. I’m really going to miss seeing him around ball games and hearing his voice on the radio.

God bless you my friend.

From Page 12 Cain got the biggest pike of the day with a 32-inch slot pike. They are 27-35 inches and they have to be thrown back. They usually weigh about 5-9 pounds.

Brooke Ford matched her last year’s pike by landing a 14-pound pike and a couple days later, her Dad Brian, caught a 15-pound pike.

Another great achievement was accomplished by Wyatt Burdette, the grandson of John Kirgan. When a fisherman catches a walleye over 5 pounds, a pike over 10 pounds, and a lake trout over 10 pounds during the week, they receive a triple header pin. Great job, Wyatt!

During the week, our group caught eight pike over 10 pounds, four of which were 15 pounds or over. The week before, our friend Ken Funfsinn of Mendota, caught a pike weighing 15.6 pounds.

I caught a live clam (4 ounces).

One of my biggest thrills was fishing with Brian Brutcher, a former athlete from PHS. We have been friends since the ‘70s. This Canada trip has been on his “bucket list” for several years. When he finally retired, he found time to go with us this year. We caught a few walleye and Brian caught several slot pike but Thursday, we decided to try for lake trout. We can’t keep them due to regulations, but they are strong fish and fun to catch.

We circled a sunken island several times and then Brian yelled, “I got one.” His pole was nearly bent double as he kept a tight line trying to keep the fish under control. Twenty four minutes later, Brian guided the trout into the dip net I hoisted the fish into the boat and Brian let out a yell. I wished you could have seen his smile.

During our week at camp, we were treated with several sightings of wildlife. The two we look for the most are moose and bears. Dr. Jon McCutchan took several pictures of a bear swimming from one island to another. Brian and I saw a moose doing the same thing. As usual, loons and beavers were plentiful. We love the eerie loon call.

How quickly the week passed. Friday evening and Saturday morning we loaded the bus. We were on the road before 10 a.m.

By the careful driving of Captain John Smith and Justin York, the bus pulled into to Princeton at 6 a.m.

Sunday.

Next up Sprint Cup Race: Quicken Loans 400 Where: Michigan International Speedway When: Sunday, 1 p.m. (ET) TV: TNT 2012 Winner: Dale Earnhardt Jr.

Jimmie Johnson dominates from the pole at Pocono A week after a penalty for jumping a restart cost him a likely win at Dover International Speedway, Jimmie Johnson responded with a flawless, dominating performance at Pocono Raceway.

As the Sprint Cup Series points leader, he started on the pole when qualifying was rained out. He then proceeded to lead 128 of 160 laps, including the final 31, to score his third win of the season and extend his points lead over secondplace Carl Edwards to 51.

Although some suspected that Johnson’s thorough thrashing of the rest of the field — Ryan Newman was second in laps led with just 19 — was in response to his disappointment from Dover, he and his crew chief, Chad Knaus, insisted otherwise.

“I don’t really think so,” Knaus said. “It would have been very easy to come in here with a chip on your shoulder or a grudge, and Jimmie is not that kind of guy. ...

“He doesn’t carry a grudge. He is very laid back — the pinnacle Californian — and he just lets it go and come and go as it pleases.”

Knaus said the entire No. 48 team at Hendrick Motorsports tries not to

let what happened in the past affect their performance in the future, and he said that’s one of the keys to their success.

“We always try to keep eyes forward, and I think that gives us always a little bit clearer view,” he said. “Sometimes it’s pretty easy to get clouded.”

However, Johnson said he didn’t have Dover completely out of his mind at Pocono.

“There was a little lingering for me,” he said, adding that he would have liked to prove a point about gamesmanship in the restart zone, but doing so could have cost teammate Dale Earnhardt Jr., who was second to Johnson on several late-race restarts.

“I guess if things stay the way they do, I’ll save that for another day and prove my point even more,” he said.

Earnhardt, who lost second place to Greg Biffle on the final restart at Pocono and finished third, said the bottomline story from Dover and Pocono is the strength and speed showed by Johnson’s team, which operates under the same roof at Hendrick as Earnhardt’s team.

“They had good cars two weeks in a row,”

Patrick Smith/Getty Images for NASCAR

Jimmie Johnson leaves the pack far behind as he crosses the finish line at Pocono.

Earnhardt said. “They won one race and didn’t win the other one. They win championships. They win a lot of races.

“He’s going to have his opportunities all year long. Fortunate

enough for me I get to be in the same shop as those guys. I get to lean on them, and I get to know exactly what’s happening under the hood, and I can learn and use that to my advantage.”

Rejuvenation Station is on Princeton’s Main Street Registered dietitian offers weight-loss programs

By Lyle Ganther lganther@bcrnews.com

PRINCETON — A registered dietitian who has battled her own weight issues throughout the years has expanded her business in Princeton to help others who struggle with losing weight.

Kim Park of Princeton recently opened Rejuvenation Station Nutrition and Weight Management Solutions at 432 S. Main St. in Princeton.

“I am a registered dietitian and have battled my own weight issues like 60 percent of other Americans do,” said Park. “I have always been interested in nutrition and health, but as I have gotten older, it has become more of a challenge for me to keep my own weight under control.”

What spurred Park to find weight loss solutions for her came about after going through a continuing education program

through the American Dietetic Association on Adult Weight Management.

“Some of the sessions I attended were on the use of meal replacement and how they have been studied and proven to be a successful tool to help clients lose weight and maintain weight loss,” she said.

Park was going to another town for an expensive weight loss program at the time to control her own weight and blood pressure issues, so this weight loss tool triggered an interest in her.

Park said she knows the importance of a healthy weight and lifestyle through her dad’s health-related issues and her mom, who is very health conscious, passing this interest onto her.

She liked that instead of handing clients a piece of paper and sending them on their way to figure out what was OK to eat on their own, meal replacement is a tool she, as a dietitian, can offer to help them attain their goal of losing weight.

Kim Park, a registered dietitian, has recently relocated Rejuvenation Station Nutrition and Weight Management Solutions to 432 S. Main St. in Princeton.

Park started with a small office in Dr. Dennis Farrell’s East Peru Street building two summers ago, and as the number of people increased and her product line expanded, she needed more space.

During her research for a larger location, one of Park’s clients who had lost weight through the program was Karen Townsend. Townsend and her husband, Mark, had purchased the 432 S. Main St. building where Fitzgerald’s is located in Princeton and were looking for a tenant in a vacant space.

Park and her husband, Joe, decided to move to this location to allow Rejuvenation Station to have more products on display and allow for a demonstration kitchen for cooking classes. It also has a meeting area for wellness-related topic presentations and “Swap Eats” where clients can sample and trade products with each other.

Rejuvenation Station has been open for a month and during that time, Park reports she has been getting positive feedback from others on being able to lose weight

through the use of the products she stocks.

“There are no secret ingredients to the product line,” she said. “Most of the products are a good source of protein which makes you feel full longer and protects your lean body mass while losing weight, although it is important to point out that this is not a high protein diet but an adequate protein diet.”

Most of the products are lower in carbohydrates and contain fiber to help control blood sugar, she added. They are also lower in fat than

many commercial products found on the retail market.

Park started her career in nutrition at a weight loss clinic in Rockford after getting her Bachelor of Science degree in nutrition and dietetics at Illinois State University in the 1980s.

“It is nice to bring it full circle back to my hometown with a retail clinic in downtown Princeton,” she said. “There is no consultation or start-up fee to get started on the weight loss program, but an initial appointment is needed so that one-onone time is set aside to individualize a program for a new client.”

Retail hours are from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturday.

The business’ website is at www.rejuvenationstation.info or email Park at kim@rejuvenationstation.info. Appointments are also available early morning and evening hours. Call 815-915-6633 to set up an appointment.

Do you have high blood pressure?

In Illinois, you aren’t alone Reducing sodium consumption by just 30 percent could prevent more than 100,000 cases of high blood pressure and save more than $200 million in medical costs in Illinois, where cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke remain a leading cause of death.

The nation recently celebrated High Blood Pressure Education Month, and the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) is encouraging healthy lifestyle changes to reduce diagnosis of high blood pressure, also known as hypertension, in Illinois.

“High blood pressure, or hypertension, increases the risk of cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack and stroke. Certain lifestyle changes, like regular exercise, quitting smoking and following a low sodium diet rich in fruit and vegetables, can reduce and help maintain a healthy blood pressure,” said IDPH Director Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck. “Make control your goal.”

Written as two figures, blood pressure is measured as the pressure when the heart has pumped (systolic) and when the heart is in between beats (diastolic), and is measured in millimeters of mercury (mmHg). Traditionally, blood pressure is considered “normal” when systolic pressure (the higher number) is less than 120 mmHg and diastolic pressure (the lower number) is less than 80 mmHg. People at risk for high blood pressure, often called “pre-hypertension,” have systolic pressure between 120 and 139 mmHg or diastolic between 80 and 89 mmHg. High blood pressure means systolic pressure is 140 mmHg or higher or diastolic is 90 mmHg or higher.

In the United States, 1 in 3 adults have high blood pressure, but many are unaware they have the condition

because of a lack of symptoms. In Illinois, one-third of all adults have been diagnosed with high blood pressure.

The prevalence of high blood pressure increases with age — 63 percent of adults in Illinois age 65 and older have high blood pressure. Hypertension-related health conditions account for more than 200,000 hospitalizations a year in Illinois at a cost of more than $9 billion.

African-Americans suffer from hypertension in disproportionate numbers, representing about 14 percent of the population in Illinois, but 42 percent of all cases.

Geographically, rural Pulaski County leads the state in adults with high blood pressure, at nearly 45 percent; Bond County in the Metro East area of the state has the lowest rate, at 23 percent.

Blood pressure can be kept under control with the following healthy habits: • Achieve and maintain a healthy body weight.

• Participate in 30 minutes of moderate physical activity on most days of the week.

• Eat a healthy diet that is high in fruits and vegetables and low in sodium, saturated fats, trans fat, and cholesterol.

• Reduce sodium intake. Guidelines recommend up to 2,300 mg of sodium per day for an adult. Those at higher risk should consume even less — no more than 1,500 mg per day.

• Manage stress.

• Limit alcohol consumption. No more than one drink each day for women and two for men.

• If you have high blood pressure, take your medication as directed.

• Quit smoking — and if you don’t smoke, don’t start.

Call the Illinois Tobacco Quitline for free assistance with tobacco cessation: 866-QUIT-YES.

Keeping your skin healthy this summer This is the first summer in which FDA’s new rules governing sunscreen labeling are in effect.

Did you know that no sunscreens are waterproof? Manufacturers may no longer make claims that their sunscreens are “waterproof” or “sweatproof.”

One of the most important new requirements: Testing and labeling that identifies sunscreens that are “broad spectrum,” meaning they offer protection against both UVB

and UVA rays.

Products may no longer be identified as “sunblocks” or claim instant protection or protection for more than two hours without reapplying.

FDA has no data demonstrating that sunscreens with an SPF of more than 50 provide additional benefits compared to those with SPF 50.

FDA has also requested additional data from manufacturers of sunscreen spray products to ensure their effectiveness and to determine

whether they present a safety concern if inhaled unintentionally.

The National Council on Skin Cancer Prevention designated the Friday before Memorial Day as Don’t Fry Day. FDA and EPA support this day by reminding individuals to do the following: • Slip on a shirt.

• Slop on broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 or higher.

• Slap on a wide-brimmed hat.

• Wrap on sunglasses.

winners will receive a free pair of RKS sunglasses and a copy of the children’s book “Jacob’s Eye Patch” by Beth Kobliner Shaw and Jacob Shaw.

The celebrity panel of judges will include ORA-TV’s Larry King, “Fox NFL Sunday” host Curt Menefee, and actress Barbara Eden. New to the panel is financial journalist and bestselling author Beth Kobliner Shaw, whose forthcoming book “Jacob’s Eye Patch” speaks to what it is like to be a child with a vision problem.

The national winner and two family members will enjoy a weekend in Chicago to attend the Prevent Blindness America Annual Awards Banquet on Nov. 8, where the $10,000 educational scholarship will be officially awarded.

Food court What man doesn’t like a good, old-fashioned hamburger? There are so many ways to prepare a burger — making a few changes here and there to turn an ordinary burger into something to please your favorite Father’s Day person.

Marty’s Burger 2 Vienna beef foot-long hot dogs (split in half length wise) 3 1/2 ounces fresh ground chuck (pressed into 2 paper thin patties) Fry the hamburger patties on a well seasoned skillet, about a minute on each side as they are so thin, then fry the hot dogs with a weight on them to flatten.

Put a slice of yellow cheese on top of the hamburger and layer the hot dogs on top. The toppings are mayonnaise, ketchup, lettuce, onion and a tomato slice.

Mustard and pickles are OK too. Top it off with a grilled bun, and you’ve solved the dilemma of whether you want a burger or a hotdog from the grill.

The Beer Maid-Rite Sandwich 1 pound fresh ground 80/20 chuck 5 pinches salt (to taste) 1 cup beer 3 squirts (teaspoons) yellow mustard 6 white squishy buns Pickle slices Chopped onion More yellow mustard Place a heavy cast iron skillet over medium heat to warm for five minutes. Turn heat to medium high and crumble the beef into the skillet. Add salt. Using the blade end of the spatula, chop the beef as it cooks until it is pebbly. When the beef loses most of its pink, add the beer and turn the heat up to high. Add the mustard as the beer begins to bubble and stir to mix contents. Cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until most of the liquid has evaporated. Scoop onto buns that have been doused with onion, pickle and more mustard. Enjoy with the remaining beer. Makes 5 to 6 sandwiches. This recipe comes from Taylor’s Maid-Rite in Marshalltown, Iowa.

The Peanut Butter ‘Guberburger’ 1 cup smooth peanut butter 1 pound fresh ground 80 percent lean chunk Salt 4 white squishy buns Butter In a small saucepan, heat peanut butter over a very low flame. Divide the meat into quarters and form into loose balls. Place a heavy cast iron skillet over medium heat to warm for one minute. Turn heat to high, wait a minute, then place balls of beef into pan.

Sprinkle some salt on the meat and with a strong spatula press once into the shape of a patty; cover the pan.

Once the pink in the meat is almost gone from the surface (about 2 minutes) flip the burgers and cook

for another two minutes. Remove from heat and place on toasted white buns. To best toast buns, butter and place in skillet over medium heat. Spoon some hot peanut butter onto the patty and enjoy. This recipe comes from the Wheel Inn of Sedalia, Mo., where they make a practice of including lettuce, tomato and mayonnaise. Give it a shot if you’ve got the stomach.

Makes four quarter-pound burgers.

Judy Dyke GRANDMA JUDY’S CAFE

Bobcat Bite Coleslaw

The ‘Motz Burger’ with Schnack Sauce

2-3 heads of cabbage, shredded 1 green bell pepper, chopped 1 to 1 1/2 cups sugar 2 cups distilled white vinegar 1/2 cup canola oil 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon ground black pepper 1 teaspoon celery seed 2 tablespoons prepared mustard Place the cabbage in a large bowl. Place the green pepper on top of the cabbage. Pour the sugar over both (for 2 heads use 1 cup sugar, for 3 heads use 1 1/2 cups). In a large saucepan bring to a boil the vinegar, canola oil, salt, pepper, celery seed and mustard.

Boil until the mustard is dissolved (about 5 minutes).

Pour the hot brew over the bowl of cabbage and peppers and let set; when the bowl has cooled, mix the contents and refrigerate. The slaw tastes best when it has had time to marinate. This comes from the Bobcat Bite in Santa Fe, N.M. They put this on a green Chile cheeseburger, but it could go on about any burger or even a pulled pork sandwich. Yum!

1 pound fresh ground 80 percent lean chuck 4 white soft buns Salt Butter Divide meat into quarters and form into loose balls.

Place a heavy cast iron skillet over medium heat to warm for 10 minutes. Turn heat to high, wait a minute, then place the balls of beef into pan. Sprinkle some salt on the meat and press as little as possible into patty shapes using a strong spatula. Cover the pan. Cook on one side for about two minutes (no more), flip and cook for another minute and a half (do not press again). Remove from heat and place on toasted white buns (to best toast buns, butter and place in skillet over medium heat. Makes 4 quarterpound burgers.

Deep Fried Depression-Era Burger 1 cup finely crumbled, stale white bread 1 pound fresh ground 80 percent lean chuck 2 teaspoons salt Corn or vegetable oil for frying 8 white buns Pickles Yellow mustard This recipes makes eight burgers and requires one hour prep/refrigerator time. Place the bread, salt and meat in a large mixing bowl and blend well with hands. Form the patties by pressing a golf ball-sized wad of beef flat on a square of waxed paper with the heel of your palm. The flat patties should be a bit larger than the bun. Refrigerate patties for at least an hour (cooling the burger mix helps to keep the patties moist in the center when you deep fry). Heat 1/2 inch of oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat.

The oil needs to be hot (to test, toss in a small crumb of fresh bread. If the bread immediately bubbles, the oil is ready). Place one patty at a time into the oil, it should float freely. After roughly 30 seconds, flip the patty and cook for another 30 seconds. The patty’s edges will crisp to brown and resemble fried chicken.

Remove from the oil, drain on paper towels and serve on buns with pickle and mustard. This is a recipe from the Snappy Lunch in North Carolina.

Schnack Sauce 1/4 cup mayonnaise 2 tablespoons grainy mustard 2 teaspoons canned Mexican chipotle (A pinch of chipotle powder can be substituted, but the canned chipotles work best) Combine the ingredients in a food processor and blend well (mix in bowl if not using whole canned chipotles). Serve on a Motz burger. Note: This sauce is hot. If you like creamy hot things, this sauce is for you. Makes enough for eight quarter-pound burgers.

This recipe came from the Water Taxi Beach in Long Island City, Queens, N.Y.

Goop Sauce, My Way 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1/4 cup sour cream 4 teaspoons sweet relish 4 teaspoons yellow mustard Mix contents. Spread on your favorite burger. Makes enough for 12 burgers.

This recipe comes from Eastside Big Tom, Olympia, Wash., where it’s made daily and even used by customers for French fries and Tator Tots. *** If you have any recipes you would like to share you can email me at judyd2313@frontier.com. I’d love to have some new recipes come in for something different. I know there are a lot of good cooks out there. Happy Father’s Day!

Father’s Day: June 16 The idea of Father’s Day was conceived slightly more than a century ago

by Sonora Dodd of Spokane, Wash., while she listened to a Mother’s Day sermon in 1909. Dodd wanted a special day to honor her father, William Smart, a widowed Civil War veteran who was left to raise his six children on a farm. A day in June was chosen for the first Father’s Day celebration, June 17, 1910, proclaimed

by Spokane’s mayor because it was the month of Smart’s birth.

The first presidential proclamation honoring fathers was issued in 1966 when President Lyndon Johnson designated the third Sunday in June as Father’s Day. Father’s Day has been celebrated annually since 1972 when President Richard Nixon signed the public law that made it permanent.

Here are some statistics about fathers as provided by the Census Bureau.

• 70.1 million - Estimated number of fathers across the nation in 2008, the most recent year for which data are available.

• 24.4 million - Number of fathers who were part of married-couple families with children younger than 18 in 2012. Of those, 21 percent were raising three or more children younger than 18 (among married-couple family households only), and 3 percent were a subfamily living in someone else’s home.

• 1.96 million - Number of single fathers in 2012; 16 percent of single parents were men. Nine percent were raising three or more children younger than 18; about 44 percent were divorced; 31 percent were never married; 20 percent were separated; and 5 per-

cent were widowed; Fortytwo percent had an annual family income of $50,000 or more.

• 189,000 - Estimated number of stay-at-home dads in 2012. These married fathers with children younger than 15 have remained out of the labor force for at least one year primarily so they can care for the family while their wife works outside the home. These fathers cared for upward of 369,000 children.

• 18 percent - In Spring 2011, the percentage of preschoolers regularly cared for by their father during their mother’s working hours.

• $1.9 billion - Amount of child support received by custodial fathers in 2009; they were due $3.5 billion. In contrast, custodial mothers received $19.5 billion of the $31.7 billion in support that was due.

• 34 percent - Percentage of custodial fathers who received all child support that was due in 2009, not significantly different from the corresponding percentage for custodial mothers, 42 percent.

• 70 percent - Percentage of custodial fathers receiving noncash support, such as gifts or coverage of expenses, on behalf of their children. The corresponding proportion for mothers was 58 percent.

• 7,368 - The number

of men’s clothing stores around the country (as of 2010), a good place to buy Dad a tie or shirt.

• 15,542 - The number of hardware stores (as of 2010), a place to buy hammers, wrenches, screwdrivers and other items high on the list of Father’s Day gifts. Additionally, there were 6,764 home centers across the country in 2010.

• 21,418 - Number of sporting goods stores in 2010. These stores are

good places to purchase traditional gifts for dad, such as fishing rods and golf clubs.

• 79.1 million - The number of Americans who participated in a barbecue in 2010. It’s probably safe to assume many of these barbecues took place on Father’s Day.

SPRINGFIELD — Planning a vacation this summer? Whether your plans are for a weekend just hours from home or spending a few weeks in another state or country, the Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) recommends including emergency preparedness in your vacation planning. IEMA will promote vacation preparedness throughout the month of June as part of its 2013 preparedness campaign.

“Vacation time is supposed to be relaxing and fun,” said IEMA Director Jonathon Monken. “But a disaster occurring when you’re far from home can be very stressful, particularly if you don’t know how to stay safe. A little research, planning and strategic packing could go a long way toward keeping your family safe throughout your vacation.”

Monken said a first step in vacation emergency planning is to conduct an Internet search to learn about natural and manmade hazards for the area you plan to visit. If you’re not sure how to prepare for certain disasters, such as hurricanes, tsunamis or earthquakes, research preparedness measures for those hazards.

Even if your vacation spot is prone to dangers you’re already familiar with, such as tornadoes and severe thunderstorms, dealing with those emergencies can be challenging in a new environment.

When you arrive at your destination, iden-

tify safe locations to go to when severe weather approaches and find out how weather warnings are communicated in the area (are there outdoor warning sirens, does your hotel or resort have a public address system).

Also, locate a hospital near where you’re staying.

To help travelers prepare for vacation, IEMA offers the following tips: Before you leave Pack a travel-size emergency supply kit with water, snacks, a first-aid kit, flashlight, small battery-operated radio, extra batteries and an emergency contact card with names and phone numbers.

Pack extra supplies of critical items, such as prescription medications and baby formula, in case your return is delayed by a disaster.

Let family and friends know your itinerary and how to reach you.

Develop a communications plan and make everyone in your traveling group aware of the plan. Make sure everyone has the cell phone numbers of the others in your group. Designate an out-of-area person to contact in case your group is separated during an emergency and unable to place local calls.

If traveling internationally, register with the U.S. Department of State through a free online service at https://travelregistration.state.gov/ ibrs/ui/. The Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) allows travelers to

enter information about upcoming trips abroad so that the Department of State can better assist them in an emergency.

During your trip If traveling by car, check the forecast for your entire route before and during your trip.

Weather conditions can change drastically, especially if thunderstorms are expected.

Bring along a travel weather radio, which will automatically switch to the weather radio station closest to your travel area and will alert you to any hazardous weather.

Become familiar with the names of the counties you are traveling through because hazardous weather warnings are issued by county.

If you are in a vehicle when a tornado warning has been issued or you see a tornado approaching, seek shelter in a sturdy building until the storm passes. If you’re unable to reach a sturdy building, pull over and find a low area, such as a ditch, and take cover there.

Familiarize yourself with emergency plans in your hotel or place you are staying as soon as you arrive.

If disaster strikes your vacation spot, you can register on the American Red Cross’ “Safe and Well” website at www. safeandwell.org so family and friends will know that you are safe.

More preparedness information is available on the Ready Illinois website at www.Ready.

Entertainment ‘Inferno’ All your life, you’ve tried to be good.

As a child, you were taught kindness and compassion, honesty and trustworthiness.

You learned graciousness and generosity, and embraced gratitude.

You’ve always tried to be good for several reasons, mostly because it’s the right Terri thing to do. Schlichenmeyer Also, there’s a place for evil people and you don’t want to go there, but in the new novel “Inferno” by Dan Brown, you may have no choice. Hell may be coming to Earth.

Nothing made sense — then again, nightmares rarely do.

But when Professor Robert Langdon woke up in a hospital room

in Florence, Italy, the nightmares weren’t the worst of his problems. Langdon couldn’t remember how or why he’d gotten to Italy in the first place, or how he’d been grazed by a bullet aimed at his head.

Though he’d been sedated, there was little time for recovery: moments after he regained consciousness, a spikyhaired woman strode down the hospital’s hall and tried to kill Langdon again. He narrowly escaped with the help of his doctor, quick-thinking Sienna Brooks, who asked Langdon about an object he’d been carrying.

Covered with text and symbols, the object was a cylinder that, once opened, yielded an odd device that became a projector. Though Langdon was an expert on Italian art and literature,

Dante in particular, the image from the projector mystified him.

It was a famous painting, an impression of Dante’s “Inferno,” but it had been altered. Dante’s Rings of Hell were out of order, with additions to the painting in strange places. Slowly, Langdon came to understand that the alterations were clues to what the device was and where it had come from ... but there was no time to think.

Someone wanted him dead, and they’d surely kill Dr. Brooks, too.

On a ship just off the coast of Italy, the provost pondered his last client. He was glad the man’s contract was done. The Consortium had spent a year maintaining the man’s privacy and safety, but the work was troublesome and the provost regretted taking the business.

He regretted it even more when he realized what the client was about to unleash ...

OK, first the bad news: “Inferno” is a tad too long.

Author Dan Brown’s two main characters escape and are chased over and over and over again, relentlessly — which is exciting at first, but tiring as this book progresses. “Inferno” also ends rather strangely (but I won’t tell you why, because that would ruin it for you).

Now the good news: Dan Brown has a new book out.

And it’s a thriller with chases, intrigue, esoteric clues that require genius-level thinking, international locales, secret passages, and an evil madman. It’s complex and fast-moving.

For a couple weeks’ worth of entertainment,

Tiskilwa

what more could you want?

Fans of “The DaVinci Code” will feel right at home with this book in their hands, and espionage lovers will want to dive right in. If that’s you, and you crave a good book, “Inferno” is already one of this summer’s hottest.
