Ray Westman Owner, Verlo Mattress

“Fortunately, our industry has done an excellent job of educating consumers on the importance of a good night’s sleep.”

People’s bodies change over time, but most of the time, their mattresses don’t. The result? Back and joint problems, poor sleep, stress and fatigue caused by lack of proper rest.

But Ray Westman, owner of the Verlo Mattress Factory Stores in Crystal Lake, McHenry and Lake Geneva, is committed to helping customers find healthy, restful sleep, not only when their Verlo Mattress is brand new, but also when it’s years old.

“Everyone changes and it’s not realistic to think you’re going to need exactly the same kind of mattress ten years from now that you need today. What we custom build for you now, can be adjusted or repaired to fit your needs in the future,” Westman said.

Specializing in custom-built sleep systems, Wisconsin-based Verlo Mattress was founded in 1958 and now has more than forty franchise locations.

Westman has been with Verlo Mattress since 1985, and purchased his first Verlo store in 1994. He now owns three showrooms, and a production facility in McHenry.

In a time when mattresses are sold at big box and discount stores, in addition to mattress retailers, Westman is proud to offer something more than the typical cookiecutter approach. “Your body, your comfort needs and sleep habits all influence the kind of sleep set we build for you,” he said.

Your perfect sleep begins at the Verlo

showroom, or online with the Verlo Virtual Craftsman. “We’ll discuss who is using the mattress, a single person or a couple, a child or a teen, your preferred sleeping position, back or neck issues, and firmness preference. Often, the craftsman who will build your mattress is the person helping you on the sales floor,” Westman said.

Using top quality materials, trained craftsmen construct your sleep system locally, the day before it is delivered.

Bucking the trend toward shorter-life no-flip mattresses, Verlo still builds twosided mattresses, something informed, quality-conscious customers appreciate.

“The people who buy from us understand the continuing value of a custom-designed locally built product,” Westman said.

In addition to innerspring mattresses, Verlo also carries Visco Foam, Gel Foam, VerloAIRE beds, sleep accessories to complete your custom sleep system, adjustable beds and futon sofa sleepers in a wide variety of styles.

In a tight economy, Westman understands that customers’ budgets are stretched tighter than ever before. “Because customers have less disposable income, the reality means that we’re competing against other needs, ranging from a new refrigerator to car repair. Fortunately, our industry has done an excellent job of educating consumers on the importance of a good night’s sleep,” he said.

For a Great Night’s Sleep!

McHenry Area Chamber Proves Valuable to the Community Chambers have a very necessary role in a community that can be undervalued but not duplicated. First and foremost, chambers are incubators of small businesses. Chambers take into the fold a new business start-up and connect that organization with those important to the business’s growth. Small businesses become large businesses, pay taxes and employ local people. Is that important to a community – you bet!. We at McHenry Area Chamber are experienced professionals dedicated to growing new and expanding businesses. We are good at this! Another value added by chambers is that we showcase a community and its businesses through events and activities increasing the value of residing in an area plus supporting local business growth through connecting businesses with the community. We at McHenry Area Chamber produce many target marketed events such as Fiesta Days, EXPOS and Scrambles. Our members gain through connecting with the community and other businesses and residents gain by having a fun filled event to be proud of. Third, not often thought about is that chamber staff through their dedication to a local area, act as advisors on boards of multiple organizations because of our commitment to making a town better. McHenry Area Chamber is involved in the Downtown Business Association and the Riverwalk Foundation as we believe both are essential to the improvement of our downtown. If you are expanding your organization or considering starting a business, the McHenry Area Chamber can be your best asset.

Please review our directory of businesses noticing the high caliber of our members. These organizations gain from being part of this 63 year old organization.

Kim's Journey to Health and walk again, she embarked upon a career in wellness and completed a program with high honors in health and wellness promotion at CLC. This program taught Kimberly more about using massage and other wellness modalities to treat illness.

Pairing her education with her past business experience, Kimberly opened up Journeys Healing and Wellness Center in Lakemoor on Route 120. The center offers the same modalities that helped bring her to remission from Lyme Disease, such as massage, an infrared sauna, an amethyst crystal biomat, personal training, yoga and wellness coaching. While Lyme Disease continues to be a part of her life, her new journey is to provide the community with the knowledge and complementary services to heal from what ails them and put them on a path to wellness.

adno=0294426

Imagine suffering for 4 years because you are repeatedly misdiagnosed, culminating in a rush to the hospital for life saving measures! Kimberly Heeres-Frank of Ingleside, IL doesn’t need to imagine this experience because she lived it. It was in the hospital that she finally got a positive test for Lyme Disease (after 6 previous negatives), marking the beginning of her journey, not the end.

The suffering continued with years of antibiotics (delivered intravenous and oral), diet changes, and supplements, all putting her on a path to seek non-traditional forms of healing. Because of Lyme Disease, her world was turned upside down and she found herself staring up at a bedroom ceiling, praying for relief, instead of at new brides in her successful bridal shop, or looking at the gracious faces of those she served in the food pantry at church.

Once she finally regained the ability to think clearly

Thanksgiving Tradition & Meal

Presented by Denise Netzel, Clean Air Solutions Our Thanksgiving tradition is to have our sons, daughter in laws, and grand children and mother over. We also invite a few people who have no place else to go for dinner. I get the guest list from the family and then I begin making calls. This could be friends whose family is out of state or they may be planning on staying home due to financial difficulties or our children’s in laws and their families want to spend it together as a family and extended family. The more the merrier.

Our dinner consists of a 25 pound Turkey stuffed, Spiral Honey Baked ham, Lasagna, sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes, ( all made by me) vegetable dishes like asperagras , corn, green bean almondine, homemade buns, cranberries, olives and salad.

Dessert is an apple pie, cherry pie, sweet potato and pumpkin pie….. served with whipped cream or ice cream.

The turkey is stuffed with croutons, celery, chicken livers, chicken necks, chicken hearts, onions, oysters, all sauteed in butter. When stuffing the turkey, plenty of unsalted butter is put inside the turkey then stuffing goes in next. An oven bag is used to put the turkey inside and more butter is used to keep the turkey moist. The sweet potatoes are cut into large cubes, adding marsh 12 McHenry Area Community Guide

Top with crushed corn flakes. Bake 350 for 25 minutes. Makes 6-8 servings Here is our Thanksgiving weekend tradition. Every Black Friday our family as well as our extended family ( Sisters, Brothers, Grandparents, Children etc ) go to Richardson's Farm and cut down our Christmas Tree. We then all go out afterwards. If it's cold we pick the first tree we see after the tractor drops us off. On the years it's a little warmer we usually have a nicer tree. :)

My favorite recipe: Thanksgiving Family

Submitted by Tim Stewart, Executive Leadership Coach Ingredients• All family members • Great food • Wonderful stories • A little poetry • A lot of love, and our Creator to whom we give thanks.

Take all the family members who are present and join together at the table. Give thanks for all the family brothers who are not present either because there's someplace else in this world or have gone on to the next. Toss in some wonderful stories, mix that with a dash of love and laughter. In a moment of Thanksgiving to our Creator abov Mix well and serve at 98.6°F. My favorite tradition growing up was Thanksgiving day hunting. We would wake up every Thanksgiving day early in the morning and be the first ones out to the blind on the South Platte River. We would return home late morning to the smell of cooking turkeys and throughout the day all of the family members would be pulling up the driveway in joining us. Today, because of our family being grown and spread all across the country, we do something different every year.

Born on the Banks of the Fox‌ McHenry Musings by Bill Bolger There are so many wonderful things in McHenry that I hardly know where to start.

I'll begin with the way McHenry celebrates the second Sunday in August. A day that Congress has named to dedicate and celebrate "Keep Alive the Spirit of '45". A time to relax and enjoy peace in the world with the ending of World War II. Here in McHenry, Ron Bykowski does a magnificent job of recognizing and celebrating this day at McHenry's Pearl Street Veterans Memorial Park. Many of us believe that this celebration is the finest recognition of this day of any city in the United States.

As I mentioned in the start of this story, there are so many things to enjoy - the Thursday evening summer band concerts in the park - Fiesta Days - boating on our river and Parks and Recreation activities to name a few. How about those beautiful hanging baskets of flowers in every business district.

Moving on to establish a Public Library in McHenry - in the 1940's, efforts were made to have a lending library, first at the Green Street City Hall and for a time, space in the High School was used for a lending library.

In the 1950's, the Tesch house at the corner of Main and Green Streets was purchased for a city library but it was only open for a few hours on Wednesday and Friday afternoons. In the late 1950's the library hired a full time librarian for $1.00 per hour. The library became 14 McHenry Area Community Guide

2014 McHenry Comm Guide.indd 14

so busy that it was soon necessary to build an addition to the library.

The cost was $10,000 and our local Rotarians raised that amount in one weeks time and give it to the library board to finance the addition.

After a while, the McHenry Library became a District Library and is now located at 809 N. Front Street becoming one of the finest libraries in Illinois.

Now I want to go back a bit earlier in time to recognize a great and generous man who helped with so much progress in McHenry, Earl R. Walsh, who served as McHenry City Clerk for 35 years and never missed a City Council Meeting.

Earl Walsh was also the sports editor for the weekly publication of the McHenry Plaindealer. He also had a very popular column "So I Hear".

Because of Earl, this newspaper became so popular that people would wait in line to buy the Plaindealer on Thursday of every week when the paper went on sale.

Oh, there is so much more. We have an active Chamber of Commerce that has many business mixers at various locations to introduce and promote business ventures.

McHenry is now completing a beautiful Riverwalk where people can walk along to enjoy the site of our waterways.

McHenry is a wonder place to live and shop and "A River Flows Through It".

McHenry Finds MKE the Place to Fly! A sea of calm in a sometimes chaotic travel world, Milwaukee’s General Mitchell International Airport serves as McHenry County’s easy, low-cost alternative to O’Hare.

Relax during the one-hour drive north; no Chicago traffic jams here!

Mitchell Airport, also known by its MKE airport code, is the only airport in Illinois or Wisconsin with service from all the major domestic airlines, and many flights are on fullsize mainline aircraft. Fly nonstop from Milwaukee to Boston, Washington D.C., Seattle, San Francisco, New York, Fort Lauderdale or 30 other destinations. Plus, you can conveniently reach 160 international destinations with one easy connection.

Southwest, MKE’s largest carrier, offers 22 nonstop routes throughout the U.S. and Caribbean. Delta is the second-largest carrier and has a Delta SkyClub location at MKE. Mitchell is also served by United, American, US Airways, Frontier, and Air Canada. Funjet Vacations and Apple Vacations offer nonstop winter service to Mexico and the Caribbean.

With average airfares lower than O’Hare’s for more than six years running, MKE is a big draw for travelers from McHenry County.

Parking rates are 60% lower than O’Hare, too. Covered parking is

www.mchenrychamber.com

2014 McHenry Comm Guide.indd 15

attached to the terminal, and rates in the SuperSaver lot are just $6.50 per day.

While you’re there, look for the airport’s unique amenities, including a USO lounge, ping pong table, aviation museum, live piano players, and a popular used book store, Renaissance. Children’s play areas are located on all three concourses, and free charging stations for portable electronics were recently installed throughout the airport.

MKE’s gleaming new $45 million Baggage Claim facility will be completed in 2015. The breathtaking new building features skylights, a green roof, and a new glass canopy over the roadway.

A variety of retail shops dot the

landscape in Mitchell Airport’s concession mall, including House of Harley-Davidson, Brooks Brothers and the PGA Tour Shop.

Looking for a bite to eat? MKE has the perfect mix of local and national flavors. Nonna Bartolotta’s is a local favorite, along with Usinger’s, Pizzeria Piccola and Northpoint, which serves frozen custard. The newly-remodeled Miller Brewhouse features draft beer taps right at your table!

Wherever you need to go, MKE offers low fares and an easy travel experience for business travelers and families! That is why the McHenry Area increasingly finds MKE the place to fly! www.mitchellairport. com

Focusing on Family Since 1968 The Letizia Financial Group Story Family comes first at Letizia Financial. When Patrick Letizia began the practice, he built it off advice from his mother: “Treat everyone honestly and fairly and good things will happen.”

That philosophy continues today through his son, Paul, who began serving clients in 2002. “We really try to give back to the community I grew up in; I always remember going to different events growing up and the great atmosphere and that’s what we’ve tried to create with the Green Street Cruise Night and Back to Family Outdoor Movie Nights.”

The Green Street Cruise Night, started by Letizia Financial in 2010, features hundreds of classic

and show-quality cars on Monday nights throughout the summer in downtown McHenry. Movie Nights are hosted by Letizia Financial on Fridays in the fall at Veteran’s Park in McHenry and feature a different free family movie each week.

Along with giving back, building a confident financial future is what the team at Letizia Financial focuses on for their clients. “Our team is like family, each member has many areas of expertise with the main focus on doing what is best for our clients,” Paul says. The team includes Shannon, Vicky, Jessy, Andrew and Nicole.

Using the advice of their mother and grandmother, Pat and Paul have

worked with several generations of the same family. “One of the best feelings is when we get a phone call from a child of clients we’ve worked with for a number of years and they tell us what an impact we’ve made on their parents’ lives. They see how happy their parents are and they seek out our advice as well.”

Letizia Financial preaches education and strategies to help build confidence in their clients’ financial plans. Throughout the year, they host several educational events focused on building a financial plan for their clients no matter what stage they are at in life. “Whether you’re in retirement, building towards retirement or just starting out, we look at strategies to help you achieve your goals.”

McHenry, A Business Friendly Community On August 18, 2014 the McHenry City Council adopted a Comprehensive Strategic Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to affirm the mission and vision of the City; identify expectations of the City’s customers (citizens, businesses, visitors, employees); define the current state of the City as an organization and internal and external factors that impact or could affect the City.

Customer Service and Business Friendly Philosophy The City of McHenry is committed to providing quality customer service and timely responses to inquiries and requests for service to its residents and businesses through each and every department within the City. The Community and Economic Development Department is the first point of contact with potential businesses, developers, citizens and elected officials regarding service inquiries, development projects and potential new business opportunities.

The department is responsible for improving the quality of life for the residents of the community and assist in attracting, retaining and serving businesses.

Business to Locate to McHenry • Underutilized Property Tax Abatement And Incentive Program - On March 17, 2014 the McHenry City Council approved an Addendum to the City’s Economic Development Strategy creating the Underutilized Property Tax Abatement and Incentive Program. The purpose of the program is to encourage reinvestment in existing improved vacant or underutilized properties through a property tax abatement program instituted through multiple taxing bodies. Over time assessed valuations of vacant or underutilized properties decrease or remain stagnant hindering tax growth for all applicable governmental bodies, and the intent of this program through intergovernmental cooperation is to abate some portion of property tax increase over some agreed-upon time period following property redevelopment and/or reoc20 McHenry Area Community Guide

2014 McHenry Comm Guide.indd 20

cupation of a previously-vacant building. City sales tax rebates can also be utilized in conjunction with property tax abatement.

A goal of this program is to to effectively market specific properties to potential investors, developers and/or businesses, which at one time contained sales and/property tax producing businesses, were home to job-generating companies but due to various circumstances have since been vacated, become obsolete due to the size of the land building or a combination thereof.

• West Illinois Route 120 Corridor Enhancement Initiative - This is another proactive measure taken by the City Council to spur economic investment and reinvestment, encourage new businesses to locate along the West Illinois Route 120 Corridor and maintain and promote expansion of existing businesses. Owners of property along West Route 120 between Meadow Lane and Ringwood Road are eligible to participate in the Enhancement Program. Those businesses who are tenants of commercial buildings in this same area are eligible if the building owner’s consent is provided in writing.

Types of financial assistance extended by the City may but not limited to include sales tax rebate, property tax abatement (City portion only) and waiver of permit and capital development fees. Accelerated sales tax rebates for “priority projects” may be considered. The accelerated rebate would entice a large investment that may produce potential large sales tax revenues and reflect a willingness to attract and encourage large economic investment by allowing more rapid incentive recovery.

• Downtown Revitalization - In 2002, the City established a Tax Increment Financing (TIF) District encompassing the Riverside Drive and Green Street downtown areas.

The purpose of this TIF District is to foster redevelopment and investment in the downtown area.

Property taxes were frozen in 2002, within this designated area, and any increase in property taxes, over the life of the TIF District, assists with financing public improvements in the TIF District. The TIF District will expire in 2025.

In conjunction with the establishment of the TIF District, in 2003 the City adopted a Downtown Plan to promote redevelopment and investment.

McHenry's commitment to its downtown has already resulted in multiple redevelopment projects within the TIF District, as well as the construction of the first of multiple phases of the McHenry Riverwalk east of Green Street, which includes a pedestrian bridge over Boone Lagoon to

• Revolving Loan Fund Program - Revolving Loan Program can be used to assist, in the form of a low interest loan, businesses within the City of McHenry. The funds can be used for start-up costs, expansion or updating a business. There is a formal application process, and detailed financial information is required. Principal objectives of the program are business creation, expansion, additional job creation and new tax generation. After a loan is issued and once the principal and interest are repaid to the City the funds are filtered back into the program and be utilized for future revolving loan fund requests.

• Facade Improvement Grant Program - The purpose of the Facade Improvement Grant Program is to reimburse a portion of the cost to a commercial business to improve their facade. The building must be commercial and must be a minimum of 50 years in age. All materials used should be sensitive and appropriate and reflect the original design of the building. The following type of work is considered appropriate to apply for funding under this grant program: painting, tuckpointing, cleaning, remodeling, restoration or rehabilitation to the front façade or a side or rear facing a major street or public access. Awnings and signage may qualify if they reflect the original design or building period. This program has a formal application process with additional submittal requirements and is reviewed by the Landmark Commission which makes a recommendation to the City Council. This is also a reimbursement program.

After 54 years of marriage, Mario and Joan Arcari are affectionate, at ease and just a little teasing with each other. Mario takes a seat on a padded chair across from the fireplace, and puts his feet up on the matching ottoman in their Johnsburg home designed by student architects at Taliesin, the Frank Lloyd Wright School of Architecture in Spring Green, Wis. Joan sits on the sofa adjacent to her husband. As soon as Mario is comfortable, his ‘Buddy,’ Oliver, an 11-year-old Yorkie, curls up on Mario’s legs and appears to fall asleep.

A pristine view of the setting sun gleaming across the lake out the picture window completes the scene as the Arcari’s reflect back, with knowing smiles, on the travels and adventures that have brought them to this time and place. Today, that journey includes their most recent project – the remodeling and complete rejuvenation of the long-standing hotel where Chapel Hill Road crosses the Fox River – The Waterfront Hotel & Marina (815.344.3131 – www.waterfronthotelandmarina.com).

Escape to the Waterfront with Mario and Joan Arcari Mario: I would say I’m the true American immigrant. I came to this country (from Scotland) with $20 in my pocket.

Joan: I was born in Chicago and raised in Wriggleyville. We met as members of the Russell Wood music-theater workshop. We performed shows, such as “Pajama Game,” “Wonderful Town” … and review shows.

Mario: We both love the arts. I toured the United States with the Ralph Flanagan Orchestra as a male band singer. I sang with Anita Bryant and George Liberace – the other Liberace’s brother. That was after I got out of the Army.

Joan worked at Decca Records …

Joan: … and radio and TV stations –

WAIT, WTTW, WGN. I didn’t want a routine job.

Once, before I married, Mario, Andy Williams came in (to WAIT around 1956) promoting his Canadian Sunset single. He asked me out to dinner. We went to the Blue Note.

Woody Herman was playing.

Mario: Later, I opened a recording studio – produced some records, wrote some songs. I sang with Allan Stevens. We were called Arcari and Stevens. He died a few years ago.

Joan: Roy Leonard was playing their songs on the radio, songs like “I need your love.”

In the years that followed, Mario built one of the first Joan and Mario Arcari at their McHenry Area Chamber of mobile DJs in Chicago, which Commerce ribbon cutting Sept. 17. Above center: Joan with he called DiscoRama. He then had cake on her face at WTTW. Right: Mario publicity photo. a mechanical bull built by someone

from the Museum of Science and Industry. He toured with both throughout the Chicago area from Navy Pier to regional sites north, south and west.

Joan: But he was making more money in manufacturing.

Mario: I had learned tool and die in Scotland. I built Hi-Tech Manufacturing and ran it for about 25 years. I sold it about four years ago.

It will be two years in November that I purchased the former Paradise Cove. Why? It’s 18 acres of waterfront property.

Joan: I almost flipped the table over when he told me he’d bought it.

I didn’t know if he wanted to get into a project that big now.

Mario: The hotel is my latest adventure. We opened a couple months ago. Now, I’m working on the bar downstairs at the hotel. I want to make it something unusual that will give people a reason to come.

Village of Lakemoor 815-385-1177

I have always loved McHenry. As a lifelong resident I have watched it grow dramatically in population over the years, but it still feels like my hometown. The spirit of volunteerism in McHenry is one of the things that make us such a strong community.

Our quality of life is a direct result of that volunteerism. There are so many wonderful events and family opportunities, thanks to our amazing citizens, service organizations, Susan E. Low, Mayor school districts, and churches. I am constantly impressed by how well our history has been preserved and respected. We honor tradition while at the same time progressing as a community. It is the people that make McHenry special. We are truly “the Heart of the Fox River.”

Open spaces, unspoiled nature and plenty of trees with unlimited access to boating, fishing, golfing, skiing and snowmobiling. A quiet community with a mixture of old and new residential, commercial and industrial areas. Lakemoor is located in the center of activity between Chicago, Milwaukee and Rockford on Route 120 and Route 12.

Lakemoor is a community to get excited about.

Village of McCullom Lake 815-385-2211 www.voml.org

The Village of McCullom Lake was incorporated on April 7, 1955. It was originally designed as a vacation spot for people from the city. The Village has grown from that time and has now become a permanent home for some 1,050 people. We hope to see our Village continue to grow in the future.

Village of Ringwood 815-653-5511 www.ringwood-il.us

Ringwood is diverse for a small town. It has historic structures, single-family homes, apartments, subdivisions, farms, businesses such as Dow Performance Packaging, Huntsman, Modine Mfg., and institutions such as the Ringwood United Methodist Church and the Ringwood Primary Center.

It has been my honor to serve as an elected official in our community for 26 years and I can think of no better place to live, work and raise my children. McHenry Township has been a part of the community for 165 years, providing accessible, local governmental services to over 48,000 residents. McHenry Township residents and businesses have been very generous with their time and treasures during these difficult economic times, assisting neighbors in need. Local governments have worked together to provide the most efficient and cost Donna A. Schaefer, effective services and remain apSupervisor proachable to those they serve.

Lakemoor Plans For The Future

Over the last year, the Village of Lakemoor has worked aggressively to implement the principals, policies and implementation strategies of its recently adopted comprehensive plan. Listed below are some of the key achievements that have been accomplished over the last year.

Economic Development - One of the strengths of the Village’s Comprehensive Plan is that it takes a realistic approach to economic development by establishing three primary commercial nodes to accommodate market demand and to sustain public services.

To the east, at Routes 12 and 120 is the Village’s regional commercial center, to the west at Route 120 and Chapel Hill Road is a neighborhood/ local commercial center, and at the heart of the community along Route 120 and across from Lily Lake is the future town center.

These three commercial nodes are intended to work in synergy with each other rather than in competition by focusing on different market niches and styles of development. This new and more sensible strategy to growth is intended to maximize the Village’s tax base, promote more open space and recreational opportunities, allow a greater diversity of non-commercial land uses, and preserve environmentally sensitive areas within town.

To spur economic development, the Village is focusing much of its attention on the Route 12 and 120 cor28 McHenry Area Community Guide

2014 McHenry Comm Guide.indd 28

ridor. The development of this area is vital and necessary to bring the basic amenities, conveniences, and goods to both the residents of Lakemoor and the region. Past efforts to develop this corridor have been challenging due to a lack of public infrastructure. To address this issue, the Village Board will consider the adoption of two Tax Increment Financing Districts (TIF).

The north TIF would encompass those properties north of Route 120 and east of Route 12 and would focus on business retention and expansion. The south TIF, which includes those undeveloped properties south of Route 120 and west of Route 12, would focus on business attraction and development.

A meeting of the Joint Review Board is scheduled later this year and Village Board consideration is anticipated sometime in early 2015.

Town Center - The Village’s Comprehensive Plan also establishes a new “Town Center”. Historically the geographic center of the community, Lakemoor’s future town center is positioned to strengthen its role as the center of activity and entertainment. With nearly half of the Village’s population within walking distance, the town center represents an exciting opportunity to create a special place for commercial growth, housing, civic events, recreation, and resident interaction. During the comprehensive planning process, residents conveyed a desire to see this area revitalized

and transformed into an active and walkable center with mixed use style development and prominent focal nodes that promote civic events and community pride. Such a transformation would not only create a new and vibrant sense of place, but it would also redefine and change Lakemoor’s image as well as enhance the experience of travelers as they pass through town on Route 120. To implement this vision, the Village has applied for assistance through CMAP’s LTA program for the development of a subplan to the comprehensive plan. The Village expects the planning process to begin sometime in early 2015.

Transportation - The Village has also been actively working to address local and regional transportation issues. One of the Village’s transportation goals is to create a system in which residents are able to drive, walk, or bike safely and conveniently throughout the Village for daily needs and activities. To begin addressing this issue, the Village has obtained an ITEP Grant through the Illinois Department of Transportation in the amount of $264,000 to construct a 2 mile bike path. This path would connect existing residential neighborhoods, provide access to commercial businesses, incorporate new pedestrian signalization at Route 120 and Darrell Road, and extend to the existing trails that are located at the Moraine Hills State Park. This path will ultimately

Ireland – The Emerald Isle As they say in Ireland - Welcome - A hundred thousand welcomes “Céad Míle Fáilte” Ireland received it’s “nickname” The Emerald Isle due to it very lush beautiful green countryside. Come with me on a journey through just some of what Ireland has to offer!

Dublin is the capital of Ireland. A visit to Dublin, includes a wealth of attractions such as Trinity Col-

Ashford Castle lege, which includes the Book of Kells, the most richly decorated of Ireland’s medieval illuminated manuscripts.

Christ Church Cathedral which was originally constructed out of wood in 1038, was first rebuilt in 1186, completely remodeled in the 1870’s and then restored in 2000, this is an amazing Cathedral to visit while in Dublin. St Stephen’s Green, landscaped with flowerbeds, trees, a fountain and a lake. Along with countless museums and library’s Dublin is also home to the, Old Jameson’s Distillery and the Guinness Storehouse. The Guinness Storehouse, now completely remodeled, the first impression a visitor has is walking into a large “glass pint” with light spilling down from above and a copy of the original lease signed by Arthur Guinness enshrined on the floor.

Throughout your tour you would touch, smell and feel the ingredients used through interactive displays. One of the “best” features of the tour is ending with a generous tasting of draught Guinness in the traditional Brewery Bar and the rooftop Gravity Bar where you can get an amazing view of Dublin!

In the West of Ireland you’ll find the rugged coastline of the Atlantic. Galway city, Clifden and Westport are three great bases for exploring this region. Featuring Connemara and the wilds of County Maya nature lovers will enjoy a vast array of wildlife while those seeking some water sports will enjoy the islands of Achill, Aran 30 McHenry Area Community Guide

2014 McHenry Comm Guide.indd 30

and Clare great for fishing, kayaking and scenic cruises.

Not to be missed in this area is Connemara National Park, a combination of bogland, lakes and mountains.

One of my personal favorite regions of Ireland is the Southwest region. Mostly because I love the city of Killarney and its surrounding areas. Just outside of the city lies the Lakes of Killarney. Although Killarney has been described as a “tourist town” it still evokes a cheerful atmosphere filled with “Kerry humor” this city is personified by the wise cracking “Jarveys” whose families have run jaunting cars (horse drawn carriage rides) there for generations. Killarney is not the only awesome thing about this area. The ring of Kerry consists of a route around the Iveragh Peninsula. This captivating and coastal scenery is dotted with slate roofed fishing villages and brightly painted cottages. Not to be missed in this region is a tour of the Dingle Peninsula which offers some of Ireland’s most beautiful scenery. A drive around this area (which can take about 4-6 hours) reveals fascinating antiquities ranging from Iron Age stone forts to inscribed stone huts and beehive huts. Before heading out of the Southwest region we can’t forget about Blarney! In this area you can visit Blarney Castle, and it’s magnificent gardens. The Blarney woolen mills (the best for your Irish sweaters) and of course we can’t forget to Kiss the Blarney Stone!

The Southeast Region offers the warmest climate in Ireland. This mountainous region is known for its impressive castles such as Castletown House and Power-

Rock of Cashel scourt. As well as one of Irelands oldest cities, Waterford.

Here you can take a tour of the Waterford Crystal Factory. Your tour ends in the Waterford Crystal shop so you can have a souvenir shipped home. Also in the Southeast you would find the Wicklow Mountains. In the 1700’s

2014-2015 www.mchenrychamber.com

10/20/14 12:05 PM

Henry Ford, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Conan O'Brien, Derek Jeter, Elvis Presley, and Bruce Springsteen. So it’s no wonder we have an interest in the Emerald Isle.

I hope that you’ve enjoyed this brief “visit” to the beautiful Emerald Isle. One country, one hundred thousand reasons to visit, one hundred thousand welcomes.

these mountains were inaccessible, making them a safe haven for “warlords”. Even today the mountains are thinly populated. There is little traffic to disturb enjoyment of the beautiful rock-strew glens, lush forests, and bog lands.

Did you know that there are seven times the number of Americans that claim Irish Decent than the actual population of Ireland? Between 1820 and the 1920s, an estimated 4.5 million Irish moved to the United States, many of whom settled in large cities like New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Chicago, and San Francisco. At least 22 U.S. presidents have been of Irish descent. Notable Americans of Irish descent include John F. Kennedy, Neil Armstrong,
