D-99 seeks electronic signs DOWNERS GROVE – Community High School District 99’s pursuit of electronic message board signs at North and South high schools remained undimmed by the village council after its meeting Feb. 3.

A motion during the meeting allowed further discussion for an amendment that would permit the signs in the campus-scale institutional and public district, also known as INP-2.

As of Monday, the zoning ordinance prohibited electronic message board signs in all zoning districts.

A vote on the amendment was scheduled for the council’s meeting Tuesday.

The school district has been working with the village to begin the application process to rezone its two school properties from residential to INP-2.

“District 99 has had an interest in digital content signage for almost a decade and we do understand the prohibitions regarding such signage in the village,” said Superintendent Mark McDonald at the Feb. 3 meeting.

“However, we believe our schools have unique and compelling communications reasons that are perhaps different than any other entity in our community.”

McDonald said while communications strategies have changed dramatically over the past decade, people still rely on North High signage for information relating to the school, and continue to remark about the lack of signage at South High because of a tornado in 2011.

Jim Kolodziej, director of physical plant and operations and purchasing at District 99, presented the proposed signs for the two schools. For North, the plan is to keep the base of the existing sign and add the LED sign on top. The digital sign would be similar

The South sign would be identical in size to North’s and would be about 30 feet from 63rd Street and 90 feet from Dunham Road.

The monument-style signs would offer full-color display on two sides, static text and images and automatic display dimming at night. The messages on screen would last about 12 seconds before disappearing and being replaced by a new message.

The signs would be used for school announcements, crisis notification, weather-related closings, notification of drills in progress, government agency announcements and invitations to events, according to District 99 Communications Director Jill Browning.

Mayor Martin Tully was on the village council in 2007 when the district first brought up the idea of electronic message boards that the council ultimately rejected.

sign concept, technology has changed, things have changed for the better,” he said. “The most important thing is the new category of INP-2 zoning. That didn’t exist in 2007.”

However, Tully expressed concern that allowing INP-2 in one place could lead to widespread use in areas such as the business sector, where the signs wouldn’t provide information that benefits the public.

“From my perspective, I would be in favor of seeing what an ordinance might look like,” he said.

According to village documents, the INP-2 zoning district was designed to accommodate development of properties larger than 4 acres for public, civic and institutional use. The only property zoned INP-2 in the village is the Advocate Good Samaritan Hospital campus. Village documents indicate other properties that could be eligible for INP-2 zoning include: District 99 properties, Downers Grove Grade School District 58 properties, the Midwestern University campus, park district properties, forest preserve properties and village properties.

Commissioner Greg Hose didn’t feel the digital sign concept warranted further discussion, citing concerns for residents in proximity to other properties that would fall under the new ordinance.

“In this day and age with technological advancements being what they are, we have myriad ways to communicate. The sign just doesn’t have the same impact,” Hose said.

“In terms of the rezoning I am fine, in terms of the location of the South High sign, I am fine with that. But as far as digital signage, I cannot support it at this time.”

‘Restaurant: Impossible’ comes to town

Kelli Murray - kmurray@shawmedia.com

The Food Network is in Downers Grove taping an episode of its television show “Restaurant: Impossible” on Tuesday at Lemon Tree Grocer, 5101 Mochel Drive. Taping is taking place Tuesday and Wednesday, with a grand reopening scheduled at 7 p.m. today. The show will air sometime in late winter or spring of 2015.

PROFESSIONAL CLEANING Q: How often should I have my teeth cleaned?

A: The short answer is you should go for a teeth-cleaning session with your dentist every six months, the same interval that’s recommended for a checkup. Professional cleaning is necessary because no matter how diligent you are in brushing and flossing at home, there’s no way you will be able to reach every nook, cranny and fissure where plaque can accumulate and harden into tartar. The dentist’s office, for one thing, is equipped with the tools that can effectively get into those small spaces. And the work will be done by either the dentist or by a dental hygienist, a licensed professional.

They will use either hand-held scalers – small tools used to scrape off the plaque buildup – or perhaps an ultrasonic machine that uses sound waves to loosen the plaque. Then they will wash the plaque away with a jet of cool water. As a precaution against periodontal, or gum, disease, the dentist or the hygienist will also clean the sides of the roots of the teeth. In some cases, this may require the use of an anesthetic, either topical or injected, to eliminate discomfort.

As a final step, they will polish your teeth to make them sparkle and to help resist plaque accumulation. Talk with your dentist about the importance of regular professional cleaning.

ATTENTION: VODAFONE SHAREHOLDERS

If you own a VOD stock (from the AT&T breakup back in 1984), you may be in for a big tax surprise!

VOD sold part of their holdings to Verizon in February 2014, so: • You will get a 1099DIV from VOD for Dividends received in 2014 • You will get a DIV from Verizon for Dividends received from the shares from VOD for 2014 • You will also get a second DIV from Vodafone This new DIV is for the Fair market value of the shares which were transferred to Verizon. Even though you did not get the money, you will be taxed by the IRS and IL on the value of these shares NOW! This will increase your amount of taxable Social Security if you are retired and might put you in a different tax bracket if you own a lot of shares.

STRAUSS TAX SERVICE can accurately prepare your 2014 Federal and IL tax returns, check for your VOD DIVs (online if you do not have it), answer your questions and explain taxes this year and for 2015.

DOWNERS GROVE – Potential amendments to the historic preservation ordinance and creating a historic district may promote civic pride, stabilize and improve the economic vitality of Downers Grove’s landmarks and historic areas, according to officials.

While the existing historic preservation ordinance was adopted in 2007, currently, there are no historic districts within the village.

The ordinance includes historic landmarks, historic districts and certificates of appropriateness that work together, according to village documents. In the seven years since the ordinance’s inception, only two homes have been designated landmarks: 5256 Carpenter St. and 4943 Highland Ave. The low numbers of landmark homes and lack of any historic districts in a town that is 183 years old signals that residents are not engaged, according to some council members.

“Something about what we are doing isn’t getting the desired results,”

What’s next?

The council will meet again to discuss the proposed amendment changes the first week in March.

Commissioner Bob Barnett said. “I suspect everyone in town generally is of the impression that it would be best if we protect some of our historic properties and for some reason, in seven years, we haven’t.”

Commissioner Greg Hose said he would like to explore incentive options for residents interested in the ordinance.

“How can we get more interest in designating your property or your neighborhood as a historic district?

And what can we do to incentivize people to move down that path?” he said.

“We have a great history here in Downers Grove and we have a tremendous resource in the historic preservation ordinance. I’d like to see more people

Downers Grove resident helps Melt away pain

By KELLI MURRAY

Upcoming workshops

kmurray@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – Mary French knew she was onto something good when her own pain from three decades in the fitness industry melted away. In fact, the physical education instructor for Downers Grove School District 58 felt so good that she decided to become a Melt instructor to help others have the same positive experience that she encountered.

On her feet all day as a physical education instructor – but also working as a Stott Pilates instructor and AFAA group fitness instructor – French, 51, had some nagging body aches and pain until she discovered Melt in 2010.

“Melt is my self-treatment technique that I used daily to hydrate my connective tissue to relieve stuck stress,” French said. “It has helped my plantar fasciitis, hip, back and neck pain.”

Cementing her fitness knowledge with the Melt Method has been a dream to empower others, she added.

Kelli Murray - kmurray@shawmedia.com The Melt Method is a self-treatment Downers Grove resident and Melt instruc- technique developed by Sue Hitzmann, tor Mary French speaks to a class Thursday a manual therapist and exercise physabout the benefits of the Melt Method at iologist, according to the Melt website.

The technique involves balls, sized from Whole Foods Market Hinsdale.

large grapes to golf balls, that are rolled beneath hands and feet in patterns for global fluid exchange within the body, French said.

“The technique taps into different parts of your body where ‘stuck stress’ may be living that can cause pain if left untreated,” French said. “The technique sends a message to the nervous system to hydrate certain parts of the body where

the connective tissue is dehydrated.”

The gentle pressure from the balls pulls fluid from surrounding fibroblast cells that are found in the connective tissue, she added.

French spent seven days in Utah in 2013 to become one of only seven Melt instructors in Illinois. She takes her knowledge to workshops throughout the area, including a recent workshop at Whole Foods Market Hinsdale.

“I think it’s a great class, but you have to be proactive,” Hinsdale resident Bogusia Biegaj said. “I definitely felt a difference in class. My hands feel looser and lighter.”

Berwyn resident Judy Vessely saw a flier and was interested after continued pain from a hip replacement surgery two years ago.

“It’s your body, so what you put into it, you get out of it,” Vessely said. “This is opening a different concept to me, and whether it works for everyone, I don’t know.”

French has felt the results firsthand and is on a mission to bring wellness to people suffering from chronic pain.

“That is the benefit to this technique, the balls are soft,” French said. “You don’t want to put yourself into pain to get out of pain.”

Learn how you can be a life-saving superhero by taking CPR classes Have you ever dreamed of having a super power? It’s actually easier than you think all it takes is a CPR class – no capes or tights required.

February is American Heart Month, and it’s also a popular month for working out.

Immediate CPR, however, can double, or even triple, a victim’s chance of survival. It’s for emergencies such as this that every employee in the Downers Grove Park District is trained in CPR and automated external defibrillator use; skills that can allow anyone to become a life-saving superhero.

Learning CPR doesn’t require weeks of intensive training either, as it can actually be learned in one evening. The Downers Grove Park District offers several courses, including CPR skills for babysitters and classes in infant and adult CPR. These American Red Cross certified courses cover CPR skills, rescue techniques for conscious and unconscious choking victims and instruction on how to use an AED machine (we have one in each of our Park District facilities). Red Cross certification lasts for two years.

The American Heart Association website, heart.org, also provides online courses and a list of other locations in the Downers Grove area that offer CPR classes. So for American Heart Month, take the time to learn a super power and sign up for a CPR course.

Worst Downers Grove snow effort

Historic Downers Grove house?

I’m curious as to what makes the Edwards House historic. Sometimes old is not historic. Sometimes old is just old.

Late call

On Sunday [Feb. 1], we had about 18 inches of snow and blizzard conditions. Why is it that most districts canceled Monday school early Sunday except District 58 [in Downers Grove]?

We did not receive notice until 9:50 p.m.!

This was an easy decision in our estimation. There should be a set time on the days when school might be canceled. You don’t need a Ph.D., just common sense.

Voters have spoken

More than 3,000 [Downers Grove] voters signed the petition to place the referendum on the ballot to advise the council that they are for or against the village hall [and] police department and relocating the fire station to the Ogden and Lee site for the election. The village could have put this referendum question on the ballot with the stroke of the pen but did not want to sample the public or govern by referendum, to quote some of the commissioners. I believe the voters of Downers Grove have sent the council a strong message that they want to be heard.

By Denise Freese It’s a well-known fact that sugar is harmful for your teeth. What you may not know is that acid produced by bacteria in the mouth is the cause of cavities, according to Kimberly A. Harms, DDS, a spokeswoman for the American Dental Association.

Any carbohydrate that you eat can start the process of acid production, including sugar, rice, potatoes, bread, fruits and vegetables, according to www.webmd.com. The website states that acidic foods and beverages can break down your teeth’s outer shell (the enamel), weaken the tooth, and make teeth susceptible to decay.

As erosion of the tooth enamel progresses, it can result in tooth sensitivity, pain, a higher likelihood of decay, and darker teeth. Dr. Nancy Rosen, a dentist in Manhattan, stated in an article on www.cbsnews.com that acid in foods and liquids can cause irreversible erosion of tooth enamel, which can’t be re-

paired with simple fillings. Veneers and crowns are needed to fix the affected teeth.

The article lists various suggestions from The Mayo Clinic to minimize the damage to teeth. First, limit consumption of highly acidic foods and beverages, such as soda (both regular and diet), energy drinks, juice, wine, most fruits, pickles, and sauerkraut. It’s also good to eat acidic foods as part of a larger meal to help neutralize and eliminate the acids. The worst time to eat acidic food is just before bedtime, because saliva, which helps neutralize and dilute acids, decreases during sleep.

The Mayo Clinic suggests drinking with a straw to minimize contact of the fluid with the teeth. Swishing the mouth with water or a fluoride rinse can also help neutralize the acid. Wait 30 minutes to brush your teeth after eating acidic foods so you don’t brush the acid all over your teeth.

By Denise Freese The benefits of dance are tremendous, at both recreational and competitive levels. According to www.dance-teachers. org, dancing provides good exercise, which can lead to stress reduction, stronger bones and muscles, improved balance and stamina, and even weight loss. Dancers gain confidence by achieving new skills, and are rewarded with a creative outlet; all you need is the desire to have a good time.

Ballroom dancing has become extremely popular; the success of the television show “Dancing With The Stars” is a testament to this. Couples move to the music using step-patterns and rhythms that match the musical style of a song.

The “Smooth/Ballroom” style, made up of flowing dances that require a couple to be constantly moving around the dance floor, includes the Foxtrot, Waltz, Tango, and Quickstep.

The second type of ballroom dance is the Latin/Rhythm style. A lot of energy is required as the dancers keep time to the

rhythm of the music. Examples include Swing, Rumba, Cha Cha, Salsa, Merengue, Disco, and Samba.

Celebrity Dance Studio, a family-run business, is a popular venue for those interested in ballroom dance. They are celebrating Valentine’s Day this year by hosting a Masquerade Ball for anyone who would like to come and dance! Whether you’d like a “date night” with your spouse, or if you’re single and want to meet other singles interested in dancing, this will be a fun time for all.

The Ball begins at 7 pm. Guests are encouraged to attend in a mask, and you can dress up as formally as you’d like. More than ten of the studio’s staff will welcome everyone, offer dance instruction, and put on a dance show around 8:30 pm. Light food and beverages will be provided, and the cost of attendance is $25 per person and $40 per couple.

I have lived in Downers Grove for more than 25 years, and this [was] the worst snow removal effort I have witnessed. While other surrounding towns (Westmont, Clarendon Hills, Hinsdale, etc.) had plowed all of their streets down to clear pavement by Monday afternoon, Downers Grove was still working on clearing their main roads. … Maybe our elected officials should redirect their efforts from building an unneeded $50 million police station/village hall and spend some of that money on getting the needed equipment necessary to provide our residents with the services they deserve. If it is not an equipment problem, then maybe we need to train our snowplow drivers on how to effectively plow our streets. Something is very wrong when other surrounding towns can provide these services and Downers Grove cannot!

I also drove Burlington Avenue from Westmont to Downers Grove, and the Westmont portion was virtually snow free … but when you got to the Downers Grove portion, look out!

Fresh Thyme headquarters coming to Downers Grove

By KELLI MURRAY kmurray@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – Fresh Thyme Farmers Market will move its headquarters from Phoenix to Downers Grove this summer, according to Michael Cassa, president and CEO of the Downers Grove Economic Development Corp.

The company already has a new store underway that will open in the spring at 321 Ogden Ave. as part of a major Midwest expansion, Cassa said.

Fresh Thyme plans to open 60 stores in six years, with 18 in the Chicago area, including the Downers Grove location.

“While we certainly welcome all corporate headquarters that want to move to Downers Grove, [the move] is significant because Fresh Thyme is an out-of-state company moving to Illinois,” Cassa said. “It’s good for Downers Grove, it’s good for the county and good for the state.”

The 30,000-square-foot headquarters will be located at Corridors 3, 2650 Warrenville Road. The move also will create 100 corporate and management positions that will need to be filled, Cassa said.

“It’s great to have not only a store here, but also the corporate headquarters here in Downers Grove,” Cassa said.

• ORDINANCE

Continued from page 6 taking advantage of it.”

The village council decided to revisit the historic preservation ordinance after voting for a special use permit for a multi-family residence at 936-942 Maple Avenue that involved a Queen Anne Victorian, known locally as the Edwards House.

One change the village is proposing is that anyone, not necessarily the homeowner, may submit an application for historic landmark status. The application must include the homeowner’s consent if the owner is not the applicant, but Commissioner Becky Rheintgen voiced concern over the point.

“Although you need owner consent, I worry that the owner should be doing the application,” Rheintgen said. “I can see a very enthusiastic neighbor doing all the work and saying ‘sign this’ and ‘consent to it’ and the person not knowing what they were getting into.”

A historic district under the current ordinance must contain two or more contiguous properties, and require 51 percent of homeowners within a designated district to consent. Officials also discussed an opt out option for residents who had no desire to be in a district.

Downers Grove resident Gordon Goodman suggested the council speak to the Park District regarding historic landmark status designation.

“The historic landmark process is an onerous process,” Goodman said. “One of the prime candidates for this historic landmark candidate is the museum campus. It has a Victorian house and the 1846 Blodgett House. I am suggesting you talk to Park District about how they feel about the changes you are about to make. They would like landmark status if they felt they could live with it.”

Bruce Rauner unveils broad agenda

By KEVIN P. CRAVER kcraver@shawmedia.com Republican Gov. Bruce Rauner in his first State of the State address laid out a broad agenda to revitalize Illinois’ economy that focuses significantly on stripping the power and influence of labor unions.

Rauner in his 40-minute speech to state lawmakers the afternoon of Feb. 4 called his proposals “bold” and “aggressive” but “necessary and very doable” to repair the state’s deep financial troubles, and make Illinois more competitive with other states.

“The time is now for all of us, Republicans and Democrats, to do big things – the right things – for the people of our great state. Now is the time for bold and decisive action. It is make or break time for the Land of Lincoln,” Rauner said.

But while Rauner preached the need for bipartisan cooperation to stop what he repeatedly called on the campaign trail the state’s downward spiral, he almost certainly will find a number of his proposals, especially those blunting organized labor, a very hard sell to Democratic lawmakers whom hold House and Senate supermajorities.

He outlined some of his proposals in his address, and others in an accompanying list of priorities he called “The

Among his top priorities for economic growth are implementing more significant workers’ compensation reform, tort reform, implementing true competitive bidding for public works projects while limiting prevailing wage requirements, and allowing local voters to decide by referendum whether or not local government employees should be forced to join a union or pay dues as a condition of employment – Rauner dubbed the localized right-towork areas “employee empowerment zones.”

“Employee empowerment zones will increase jobs for residents, increase economic activity for local businesses and generate more tax dollars for local governments. It’s a win-winwin proposal,” Rauner said.

Rauner also seeks to limit organized labor’s influence by extending the existing ban on political contributions for businesses with state contracts to all organizations with a collective bargaining agreement with state government, and organizations funded by enFile photo by Mark Busch - mbusch@shawmedia.com tities receiving state Medicaid funds.

Village of Downers Grove 1.630.434.5500 • www.downers.us Mayor Martin T. Tully Commissioners: Sean Patrick Durkin, Geoff Neustadt, Robert T. Barnett, Becky Rheintgen, David S. Olsen, Greg Hosé Village Manager David Fieldman The “Village Corner” is edited and published by the Village of Downers Grove. Any questions concerning the content of this page should be directed to the phone number referenced in the article. If a number is not listed in the article, please call the Community Response Center at 1.630.434.CALL (2255).

Meeting dates, times, locations and agendas are subject to change.

Check the Village website at www.downers.us and DGTV Channel 6 for the most current meeting information.

POLICE WARN OF LATEST PHONE SCAM The Downers Grove Police Department would like to alert our citizens to the latest telephone scam. A citizen contacted the Crime Prevention Unit and advised that they received a suspicious phone call at their home. The resident checked caller ID before answering his phone and was surprised to see his own home phone number displayed. The resident answered the call, but the caller then hung up without speaking.

The technology exists that allows a caller to use a phony name and telephone number on your caller ID system. The typical way a scammer utilizes this technology is to display a financial institution or governmental agency on your caller ID. The scammer then gains your trust and attempts to lure you into providing sensitive financial information.

Per the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), caller ID spoofing is illegal if it is used with the intent of defrauding, causing harm, or wrongfully obtaining anything of value. Persons receiving these types of calls are encouraged to contact the FCC by phone (1-888-CALL-FCC) to file a complaint.

As with any other suspicious phone call, never provide personal and/or financial information to any incoming phone call. If you receive a call, hang up, and call the financial institution or governmental agency directly via the phone number given on your banking statement or the agency’s website.

COMMUNITY-WIDE NOTIFICATION SYSTEM The Village of Downers Grove has a Community-Wide Notification System. The Connect-CTY service allows the Village to record and send personalized voice messages across the community in just minutes, through a single phone call.

Publicly available primary residential and business phones in Downers Grove have automatically been included in the system.

Residents and businesses are encouraged to register additional devices (up to three phone numbers and two e-mail addresses) by which to be contacted. To add/change information, visit the Community-Wide Notification System link on the Village website, www.downers.us.

MYTHS & FACTS ABOUT FLOOD INSURANCE Did you know that flood insurance is available to almost everyone in Downers Grove?

Homeowners, business owners, and renters can even include contents coverage in their NFIP policy. Please visit FloodSmart.gov.

BUCKLE-UP YOUR VALENTINE The Downers Grove Police Department reminds you to "BuckleUp Your Valentine" during the holiday and throughout the year.

Valentine's Day is about showing the ones you love how much you care about them. One easy way you can demonstrate your love is to buckle up and insist that everyone you love does the same anytime they are riding in a motor vehicle.

Unrestrained or improperly restrained children riding in a motor vehicle are twice as likely to die or be severely injured in a crash. The single most important thing you can do to protect your children is to buckle them up properly, every trip, every time.

Make sure your child safety seat is the right fit for your child and your vehicle. Downers Grove residents that need assistance installing their child safety seat can call Supervisor Tim Sembach at (630) 434-5636 to schedule an appointment with a certified child safety seat technician.

On Valentine’s Day, and everyday – Buckle-Up Your Valentine.

Lawmakers will meet again next week when Rauner delivers his proposed 2016 budget, which will give a more complete picture as to how he plans to pay for initiatives such as increased funding for K-12 education, and at the same time what needs to be cut. Besides a multibillion-dollar backlog of unpaid bills, the state faces a $6 billion budget shortfall for the next fiscal year beginning July 1. A much-criticized 2011 increase in the state income tax was allowed to expire Jan. 1 as promised.

While Rauner in his speech did not address the state’s $111 billion unfunded pension liability – a 2013 reform bill is awaiting an Illinois Supreme Court ruling regarding its constitutionality – his priorities list included a proposal to move state employees into a new tier of benefits or into 401(k)s while protecting the pension benefits they have accumulated to date.

We must empower taxpayers to take control of their property tax bills by giving them greater ability to control local government spending,” Rauner said.

Rauner also echoed previous calls for constitutional amendments for term limits and merging the offices of treasurer and comptroller.

A number of Rauner’s proposals are aimed at the local level, such as lowering the property tax burden on Illinois homeowners.

Besides the right-to-work and prevailing wage reforms that he said will decrease local government’s costs, he wants a two-year freeze on property taxes and an increased emphasis on consolidating local units of government – Illinois at almost 7,000 has far more than any other state.

Continued from page 19 praise from local Republican legislators and even received positive words from the other side of the aisle.

Illinois Senate Republican Leader Christine Radogno, R-Lemont, said she’s encouraged by Rauner’s early signs of bipartisan leadership.

“It’s exciting to have a governor who wants to work with lawmakers on long-term solutions to the state’s prob-

lems,” she said.

State Sen. Chris Nybo, R-Elmhurst, was part of the committee of lawmakers who escorted Rauner into the House of Representatives chambers to present his address.

Nybo said he is ready to roll up his sleeves and get to work with Rauner and his fellow lawmakers to improve Illinois’ business climate and boost job creation.

“He’s got a plan to get our economy back on track, to get our budget under control,

and at the same time, to direct more money to our schools.

Education is the most important thing we do in our state,” Nybo said. “I think he can accomplish a lot. I think he is looking for partners. I am excited to be one of those partners, and I am ready to get to work.”

Rauner’s commitment to government consolidation tapped into a major talking point for many local officials.

State Rep. Ron Sandack, R-Downers Grove, hopes the state can mirror the success

witnessed in DuPage County.

“The DuPage County model has achieved an estimated $100 million in taxpayer savings,” Sandack said, “and I hope to see that effort extended statewide so that taxpayers everywhere can experience tax relief.”

State Rep. Deb Conroy, D-Villa Park, said she was “especially encouraged” by the governor’s pledge to consolidate units of government after she was part of the bipartisan effort in DuPage County.

Conroy also agreed with Rauner’s focus on the state’s fiscal crisis. She said she’s committed to working with Republicans to pass a “fiscally responsible budget while preserving funding for education and other vital services.”

“I look forward to hearing the specifics of Gov. Rauner’s plan and will continue to work with my colleagues in the House and Gov. Rauner to find balanced solutions to our state’s fiscal problems,” Conroy said.

BROOKFIELD – Directly across from the Metra rail crossing, on the corner of Grand Boulevard and Brookfield Avenue, sits 1-year-old Fuego, a quaint respite from the everyday. In a cleverly designed building, the traditionally decorated Fuego is a cantina in the truest sense, a handy place to stop for a margarita or a cold beer and some tasty Mexican classics.

My friend and I grabbed a small table by one of the expansive windows in the relaxed space accented by stone.

We began our meal with a basket of light and salty chips and salsa, and an order of the Ceviche de Fuego, a chilled blend of chopped shrimp, tomatoes, onions, peppers, cilantro and lime – lots of lime. Elegantly served in a tall martini glass, the seafood dish was a refreshing and tasty start to our experience.

I opted for the carnita dinner, featuring slow-roasted pork sauteed with onions to create some oh-so-yummy caramelized edges. It’s like the Mexican answer to a classic pulled pork, with complex seasonings and just enough bite.

My friend ordered the chili relleno dinner, a fresh poblano pepper filled with Mexican cheeses. It was enclosed in a flaky crust, similar to a puff pastry, baked to a golden brown.

But the real star was the homemade ranchero sauce.

Smoky and rich, this blend of tomatoes, peppers and herbs is cooked a long time – until it turns thick, deep red and delicious. (The chef really should bottle the sauce and sell it at the bar.)

And although we were stuffed, the dessert menu was calling, so we ordered the churro bites. They were decadent and sweet, fried crisp and covered in a syrupy cinnamon sugar, with warm chocolate sauce for dipping.

A variety of classic Mexican favorites, from tacos to flautas, rounds out the menu at Fuego. Quench your thirst

“That was the most complete game I’ve seen Edwards play,” DGN head coach Jim Thomas said. “He was dominant on both sides of the ball and scored in double figures for the first time in his career.”

A pair of Kedrowski 3s and several clutch free throws sealed the victory for the Trojans. Downers Grove North guard Myles Farley scored 12 points while Alibegovic paced the Mustangs with 22 points, 18 of which came from behind the 3-point arc.

Both squads dropped conference games heading into the crosstown rivalry game.

DOWNERS GROVE – The Trojan boys put an end to Downers Grove South’s recent dominance on the hardcourt.

For the first time since the 2007-08 season, Downers Grove North prevailed in a regular-season, crosstown rivalry game, defeating the Mustangs 66-53 on Saturday. DGN guard Jordon Kedrowski scored a game-high 24 points and center David Edwards recorded his first career double-double (12 points and 11 rebounds) as the Trojans turned a tightly contested first half into a comfortable victory.

“The atmosphere was electric tonight, I didn’t really expect it to be that crazy,” Kedrowski said. “Just coming out to a packed gym with a bunch of Downers North and South fans is a really cool experience.”

Both teams exchanged baskets in a frenetic first half that ended with Downers Grove North on top 16-13. But DGS quickly responded in the second frame, as a Denis Alibegovic 3-pointer gave the Mustangs their first lead.

Kedrowski then seized momentum for the home team, knocking down consecutive treys before converting a three-point play that gave the Trojans a 25-17 advantage.

“My teammates did a great job of finding me in open spots on the break,” Kedrowski said.

“But credit Downers South, they are a hardworking group and did a great job of bottling us up after that.”

Sophomore T.J. Clifford was the catalyst for the Mustangs’ ensuing run, sinking a game-tying 3 with 1:30 left in the second quarter then throwing down a furious left-handed dunk to give Downers Grove South a 32-30 halftime lead.

But in the third quarter, the Trojans used their size and inside-out game to their advantage. Back-to-back baskets by Edwards opened the scoring in the second half and swung momentum in favor of the home team. The 6-foot-7 center then

Winters, Trojans thwart Postseason tips off for crosstown rival Mustangs PLAYOFF PREVIEW

Benet, DGN and DGS SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA The road to the state finals for 4A girls basketball teams starts with regional tournament games beginning Monday. Here’s the outlook for Benet, Downers Grove North and Downers Grove South:

Benet

Class: 4A Seed: 1 Regional: Joliet West Sectional: Oswego East Opening game: 7 p.m. Tuesday vs.

Aurora East or Joliet West Outlook: Benet’s big three have powered the Redwings to a 25-3 overall record and have the team eyeing a run to the state final.

Senior Emily Eshoo is one of the top scorers in the area, averaging 18.7 points per game, while forward Emily Schramek has a 15.7 points-per-game average and junior Kathleen Doyle is scoring at a 12.8 points-per-game clip.

The Redwings are the top seed in the Oswego East sectional and should have no trouble with either Aurora East or regional host Joliet West in the second round. The girls’ first big test will be either eighth-seeded Naperville Central or ninth-seeded Naperville North in the regional finals.

Benet may then face fourth-seeded Oswego East, No. 5 seed Bolingbrook or upset-minded Downers Grove North in the sectional semifinals.

Downers Grove North

Class: 4A Seed: 12 Regional: Bolingbrook Sectional: Oswego East Opening game: 7:30 p.m. Monday vs.

Lockport or Plainfield North Outlook: The Trojans could be shorthanded when the postseason begins Monday. Leading scorer Jaida Green has been dealing with a stress fracture in her left leg and hasn’t played since a Jan. 27 game against Lemont.

Additionally, Madison Farnsworth recently suffered a hand injury and is unlikely to suit up in the playoffs.

Downers Grove North is 13-12 and 4-8 in the West Suburban Silver with one win in its past four conference games. But the Trojans have strung together back-to-back wins against Glenbard West and Downers Grove South, as senior Peyton Winters and guard Lauren Porcelli have shouldered much of the offense in Green’s absence.

Downers Grove South’s Kasandra Rugienius drives to the basket Jan. 12 during a home game against York.

The 12th-seeded Trojans open 4A postseason play with a favorable matchup against No. 21 seed Plainfield Central. Should DGN advance, the girls will face regional host and fifth-seeded Bolingbrook in the second round. Oswego East and top-seeded Benet loom in regional finals and sectional semifinals.

Downers Grove South

Class: 4A Seed: 6 Regional: Romeoville Sectional: Oswego East Opening game: 7:30 p.m. Feb. 18 vs.

Romeoville or Waubonsie Valley Outlook: One of the most improved teams in the area, Downers Grove South finished in second place in the West Suburban Gold with a 10-2 conference record.

The Mustangs are led by four-year varsity player Ava Porlier, who is averaging more than 13 points per game, and senior Vashae Easley.

Sophomores Kiera James, Kasandra Rugienius and Addyson Wesolowski have all matured into regular starters, adding scoring depth and a defensive presence.

DGS was awarded a No. 6 seed and a first-round bye and will play the winner of Romeoville (No. 11 seed) and Waubonsie Valley (No. 22 seed) in the second round. If the Mustangs make the regional finals, they will likely be trying to pull off an upset against third-seeded Oswego. Neuqua Valley, the No. 2 seed in the sectional, could face DGS in the sectional semis.

By ALEX SOULIER asoulier@shawmedia.com DOWNERS GROVE – Downers Grove North senior Peyton Winters received an unexpected ovation before Saturday’s rivalry game against Downers Grove South.

With the lights dimmed in the DGN gym, Congressman Peter Roskam (R-Wheaton) took the court and surprised Winters by presenting her with a certificate recognizing her appointment to the U.S. Naval Academy.

“I have no doubt she will make her friends, family and our entire community proud at the U.S. Naval Academy,” said Roskam, who nominated Winters for the Naval Academy when she was going through the application process.

“I look forward to hearing of her continued success on and off the basketball court.”

“It definitely caught me off guard, I had no idea it was going to happen,” Winters said. “Once I saw him there, I caught on to what was happening.

I was a little lost for words, it was a humbling experience and an amazing gesture.”

But when the crosstown rivalry tipped off, Winters’ play spoke for itself.

Coming off her first career triple-double (24 points, 12 rebounds and 12 blocks) against Glenbard West on Thursday, Winters wreaked havoc early and often in the low post against Downers Grove South. The 6-foot-2 senior tallied six points and four blocks in the first quarter as the Trojans raced out to a 17-8 advantage and held on for a 43-34 victory.

Matched up against 5-foot-8 Mustangs forward Kiera James, Winters and the Trojans limited Downers Grove South’s interior play, regularly forcing the visitors to settle for jump shots and increasing their lead to 28-12 by halftime.

“You expect that type of dominant play from your seniors,” DGN head coach Stephan Bolt said. “The ball has to go into her and we have to get her touches. She did a great job of finishing today and being aggressive and going to the basket.”

In the second half, the Trojans were able to answer after each Downers Grove South offensive outburst. The Mustangs opened the third quarter with a 6-0 run, cutting the deficit to 10 points before the Trojans ended the period on a 6-2 run of their own.

Kasandra Rugienius and Addyson Wesolowski then drained back-toback 3s in the fourth quarter to pull

Game breakdown Downers Grove North 43, Downers Grove South 34 DGN TOP PERFORMERS n Peyton Winters: 12 points, 9 blocks, 6 rebounds within seven, but it was too little, too late and DGN held on for a nine-point win.

DGN guard Lauren Porcelli led all scorers with 14 points, Izzy Greenblatt had 10 points and Peyton Winters had 12 points and nine blocks Following a 74-62 victory against Hinsdale South on Friday, DGS head coach Lyndsie Long lamented that the Mustangs were out of sync early against their crosstown rival.

“Our shots weren’t falling and we were rushing through our offense in the first half,” Long said. “It took a little longer than expected to get in the groove of the game and we just came up short.”

Still, Friday’s win capped a 10-2 West Suburban Gold record and second-place conference finish for the Mustangs, who will host a West Suburban Crossover game against Hinsdale Central at 6 p.m. tonight before beginning playoff action next week.

The Trojans will go on the road Wednesday for a crossover game against Hinsdale South.

Kedrowski: I think they were pressuring a lot, and that leaves room for mistakes and I looked to capitalize. My teammates were doing a good job of swinging the ball, and I wanted to reward them for finding me.

Walker’s title, which included a 9-0 win against Proviso West’s Jaleel Hollingsworth in the final, was his second regional title, giving him his third sectional appearance. Last year, he qualified for state at 106 pounds and went 2-2 at state. This year, he moved up to 113 pounds.

Walker said his experience of getting to state last year will give him more confidence at this weekend’s Downers Grove North sectional.

“I’m feeling pretty good,” Walker said. “It was a pretty good day.”

Jordon Kedrowski has made quite an impact in his only year on the Trojans’ varsity team. After transferring from Neuqua Valley before the start of the school year, the sharpshooting guard quickly because the team’s most consistent scorer and a solid ballhandler. After his 24-point performance in the annual crosstown rivalry game, Kedrowski, the Sears Hardware & Appliance Athlete of the Week, spoke with Suburban Life Sports Editor Alex Soulier about the matchup against Downers Grove South.

JORDON KEDROWSKI

By DAN SANTAROMITA CICERO – Both Downers Grove schools had wrestlers advance from the Morton regional Saturday, and now members of the Mustangs and Trojans will compete at the Downers Grove North sectional this weekend.

Downers Grove South was second at the regional as Ahmir Hooks (126 pounds), Tyree Johnson (138) and Ryan Gurski (182) won regional titles, and Mark Leflore-Chapman (152), Ramy Abd (170) and Sergio Villalobos (195) also advanced to the sectional.

Hooks, Johnson and Gurski qualified for sectionals last year, but none of them won a regional title.

The DGN sectional has a number of top teams, so state spots will be hard to come by, but Hooks is hoping to embrace the underdog role.

“It feels good,” Hooks said after winning the regional. “I just want to wrestle as hard as I can, cause an upset if I can. I have to try and play as much close as I can.”

For Downers Grove North, Pat Walker’s title at 113 pounds was the highlight, but five Trojans in all advanced out of the regional. Freshman Nate Cummings (106 pounds), sophomores Austin Maher (145) and Sky Arend (182) and senior E.J. Phillips (heavyweight) also qualified for the sectional meet.
