HINSDALE – Lori Halligan and her team at the Hinsdale Humane Society may have been a little tired Monday morning, but their enthusiasm and excitement were sky high after a successful Pet Walk fundraiser.

“We actually ran out of T-shirts, but that was a good problem to have, so it was a fabulous day,” said Halligan, the executive director of the

Hinsdale Humane Society.

On Sunday, the society hosted its 25th annual Pet Walk fundraiser and walk-athon at Katherine Legge Memorial Park, raising nearly $50,000 at the largest annual fundraiser hosted by the organization.

Halligan said that while this past year’s weather affected attendance and fundraising, she couldn’t ask for better conditions this year.

“I know we had over 500 people there so could not ask for a

better experience,” she said.

An abundance of entertainment returned this year, including Frisbee-catching dogs; K-9 police dog agility demonstrations; and pet contests with prizes for best dressed pet, best pet tricks and a pet look-a-like category. There also was a petting zoo, pony rides and carnival games.

“I know folks who really had a great time,” she said.

“People were having fun, dogs were having fun, it was just a great day.”

Pet Walk welcomes large crowd for 25th anniversary

District 86 teachers vote to strike, board reacts

A ’60s experience

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – The Hinsdale High School Teachers Association, the bargaining representative of the district’s 377 teachers, voted to strike if a new contract agreement is not met by June 30.

While teachers cannot legally strike prior to the expiration of the current contract June 30 and not before following certain statutory procedures such as filing a notice of intent to strike, the move comes in the midst of bargaining sessions between the district and the teachers association.

District 86 School Board President Richard Skoda said the board and the teachers association commenced formal collective bargaining in March, one of the earliest starts to negotiations in the past two decades, according to Skoda.

This year, however, the school board elected to get the contract in place by the start of school and, in turn, the association requested federal mediation. The board agreed, hoping it would expedite the process, he said.

The first mediation session was scheduled for June

For the past 14 years, eighth-graders at Clarendon Hills Middle School have participated in an annual daylong celebration of the 1960s, which is the culminating project of a unit focusing on the era of American history. Along with science and art activities, social studies lessons were interwoven throughout with conversations from Vietnam War veterans who spoke with students.

10, but the board “insisted” on an earlier first session, which occurred May 27, according to Skoda. The next two mediation sessions are scheduled for June 10 and 26.

When word of a vote to strike reached the board and administrators, members were “shocked and disappointed” by the decision. Still, Skoda remains hopeful upcoming mediation sessions will help the situation.

“The board is hopeful at the June 10 mediation it will be productive and the association will respond to our offer,” he said.

Skoda also addressed a rumor the board is seeking a 5 percent wage cut from the teachers.

“The board from day one never saw a decrease in salary, and in case and point, on May 27 offered a significant wage increase,” he said. “The current contract expires on June 30.

The board intends to be available throughout the entirety of the summer in order to expedite this process to a fruitful conclusion.”

On Monday, Skoda released a media statement in regards to the strike, leaving board member Jennifer Planson wonder-

ing why fellow members of the board were not notified. She also said there were elements of the release she found troubling, including the reference to Karen Lewis.

“In a tactic reminiscent of Karen Lewis and the Chicago Teachers’ Union, Naomi Shepherd, the National Education Association representative of the District 86 teachers, called for the strike vote before the end of the current school year and prior to the expiration date of the current contract between the board and its teachers,” read the news release from Skoda.

Planson also took exception to a portion in the release labeled “bargaining in public.”

“The strike vote would be all the more perplexing because the teachers have yet to modify their initial monetary proposal dated March 5, 2014, requesting salary increases that would add 5.45 percent to teacher salary costs in the first year for District 86 teachers earning on average $111,000.”

“To me, that is bargaining in public, and I don’t know if that’s against the law, but it seems like that’s not good-faith bargaining,” Planson said. “A press release of that nature is fueling the fire and not setting a positive tone going forward in mediation.”

While board member Kay Gallo was not bothered by the substance of Skoda’s release, she wishes she was notified before the statement was sent.

“A little communication among the seven of us might do well because more communication means you’ll have less questioning going on,” she said.

In Skoda’s statement, he said the association’s action does not “necessarily” mean a strike will occur. The District 86 teachers may not legally strike prior to the expiration of the current contract June 30 and not before following certain statutory procedures, including notice of intent to strike.

“The board’s No. 1 goal remains providing excellent and uninterrupted education to our students,” he said.

CLARENDON HILLS – Thanks to significant fundraising contributions from the Clarendon Hills Parent Teacher Organization and the Clarendon Hills Park District, a new gym floor will soon be installed at Clarendon Hills Middle School.

Parent Mike Loughlin led the fundraising effort, first presenting the concept to the District 181 Board of Education at the November 2013 Committee of the Whole meeting. During the meeting, he said the new wood floor would provide a better surface for physical education, amplify acoustics during band and orchestra concerts, look more appealing and improve safety.

His efforts have paid off as District 181 Superintendent of Business and Operations Gary Frisch said at the May 27 meeting that the district has received $115,876 in fundraising – and along with a $10,000 contribution from the Park District – $125,876 has been

HINSDALE – Community Consolidated School District 181 Board of Education unanimously approved a new contract May 29 with the Hinsdale-Clarendon Hills Teachers’ Association.

Members of the teachers’ association voted in favor of ratifying the agreement May 28, and representatives of the board and the teachers’ association said that the process was “extremely” collaborative and resulted in “win-win” contract for all stakeholders, according to a news release from D181.

The teachers’ association and district representatives had an initial negotiations planning meeting in September and began meeting formally in February.

The new agreement is ef-

fective now through June 30, 2016, and includes an increase to base salaries in each of the next two years.

Assistant superintendent of business and operations Gary Frisch said that the base increases closely align to the latest consumer price indexes for the most recent years.

The contract also calls for an increased contribution from teachers for family insurance, according to the release.

Frisch notes that one of the most significant components of the contract is the formation of a new committee that will begin meeting in the fall.

The Compensation Review Committee will review the teachers’ salary schedule, continuing education, health insurance, professional development, retirement and other forms of compensation, according to the release.

Autoimmune condition?

Living with an autoimmune disorder can afect every part of your life. It keeps you from enjoying the good things in life… time with your kids, grandkids, activities like goling, biking, yard work and gardening.

Did you know that leaky gut syndrome is a precursor to an autoimmune disease?

Did you know that your gut makes up 80% of your immune system?

An autoimmune disorder is when your immune system attacks your own body. here is NO CURE for autoimmune disorders, but you can calm down the immune response NATURALLY. My name is Dr. Jefrey E Forzley, with Lemont Natural Healthcare. I am a chiropractic physician and a holistic practitioner. I am passionate about helping people with chronic health conditions. I have been in practice for 28 years. As a holistic practitioner I evaluate the whole body and the many systems of the body, integrate their relationships, manage the underlying cause and use natural methods to manage autoimmune disorders.

Are you sufering with any of these autoimmune disorders?

• Hashimotos hroiditis • Rheumatoid Arthritis • Graves Disease • Multiple Sclerosis • Scleroderma • Sjogren’s Syndrome • Type 1 Diabetes • Myasthenia Gravis • Ankylosing Spondylitis • Perniscious Anemia

• Lupus • ALS • Psoriasis • Vasculitis • Celiac Disease • Crohn’s Disease • Addison’s Disease • Urticaria (Hives) • Eczema • Raynauds

Medications are not always the long term answer.

Medications can give you temporary relief but they DO NOT ADDRESS THE UNDERLYING CAUSE of your immune imbalance. All medications have side efects. hese side efects can be more detrimental than the original symptoms sometimes.

Did you know that medications to treat autoimmune conditions can WEAKEN your immune system and lead to infections and immune degenerative conditions including cancer? here is a time to use medications but not before a NATURAL way to manage the underlying imbalance.

So how do I help people with autoimmune disorders? I use a combination of speciic NEUROLOGICAL protocols and NUTRITION recommendations… Neuro-Metabolic herapy.

Your Brain (nervous System) controls all other systems of the body. It controls your immune system. digestive system, endocrine (hormone) system… so if you have an immune system imbalance or autoimmune condition, evaluating and managing the nervous system is required for optimal improvement.

Your immune system. here are 2 parts to the front line defense of your immune system… TH1 (white blood cells) and TH2 (antibody response). hese 2 parts should work in balance together. But when you are sufering from an autoimmune disorder, one part is out of balance (dominant). his leads to an imbalance in TH3 which in turn leads to an autoimmune response.

Testimonials I was diagnosed with Graves Disease (autoimmune thyroid) three years ago. My endocrinologist recommended surgery to remove my thyroid and put me on medication for the rest of my life. I searched for an alternative treatment to save my thyroid and found Dr. Forzley. hrough comprehensive lab testing he found out what was causing my immune system to attack my thyroid. I have been receiving treatments and following his recommendations exactly and my lab numbers are now normal, my endocrinologist is happy, my medication has been reduced in half and I feel better. I highly recommend Dr. Forzley and his natural approach.

Samantha R. I sufered from unbearable itching caused by Hives (chronic autoimmune Urticaria) for over 33 years. Steroid medications helped the symptoms temporarily but the side efects were bad.

Ater an in-depth blood and metabolic analysis, Dr. Forzley found the cause of my problem. Ater 4-5 months of strictly following his recommendations, my hives are completely gone and I feel great.

Cheryl P. If your immune system is not managed properly, your condition can worsen, result in a poor quality of life, cause a shortening of the length of your life and cause other autoimmune disorders.

Holistic herapy can manage autoimmune conditions by: 1) inding and balancing the underlying cause.

2) lowering the self destructive efects of the immune system.

3) using natural therapies that work with your body.

I can work with your immune system NATURALLY and balance the TH1, TH2, TH3 and TH17. You can never be cured of an autoimmune disorder.

BUT, you can get symptom relief and calm down the immune attack on you own body. You must get a detailed immune system evaluation followed by speciic recommendation based on those tests.

Guess what stimulates TH1?Vitamin C. But if you are TH1 dominant, Taking vitamin C will WORSEN your immune response. hat’s right worsen. We need to identify which part of your immune system is dominant in order to calm down the immune system.

I don’t treat or cure autoimmune disorders.

By using speciic neurological and nutritional protocols, I help to decrease your body’s inlammation, detoxify your body, balance TH1, TH2, TH3 and TH17 which NATURALLY boosts your immune system. THAT is how I address autoimmune disorders.

BURR RIDGE – Backyards may be buzzing in Burr Ridge soon, as the village recently approved an ordinance to allow beekeeping.

The Burr Ridge Board of Trustees unanimously approved a change to the beekeeping ordinance May 27 after several residents asked the village during the winter if beekeeping is allowed.

“We had gotten a few inquiries from residents who wanted to do backyard beekeeping and, at the time, told them that our ordinance currently does not permit that,” Burr Ridge Community Development Director Doug Pollock said.

Pollock explained beekeeping was not listed as a permitted accessory or structure use in the residential district. As a result, residents and Pollock went to the Burr Ridge Plan Commission to inquire about adding the use to the zoning ordinance.

“We did some research and found that a lot of other communities are doing it or allowing it, and we presented that information to our planning commission,” he said.

Experts from the Cook DuPage Beekeeper’s Association also gave testimonies about beekeeping, alleviating some of the fears and concerns raised by residents who were unfamiliar with the insect’s behavioral traits.

During a previous meeting, residents and officials questioned whether bees would colonize elsewhere or infest neighboring properties.

“In fact, there was some testimony that they actually provide a significant benefit to neighbors in a sense of creating more lush landscape,” he said.

Ultimately, Pollock said the plan commission recommended the village add permission for beekeeping to the zoning ordinance and the board agreed but with some restrictions.

Any property of 80,000 square feet or less, about two acres, is allowed a maximum of two bee colonies. Any prop-

erty exceeding 80,000 square feet may have up to four colonies.

The size of the hive or structure holding the hive also cannot exceed 6 feet in height and 8 square feet in area and must be at least 15 feet from all property lines, according to the ordinance.

Restrictions also specify the exact type of bee residents can have, which is the domestic honeybee.

“Part of the testimony was that there’s a wide variety of bees out there,” he said. “Some bees are aggressive, and the ones that commonly sting people and create a nuisance for people are not the domestic honeybee, so we specifically restricted it to that particular type of bee.”

Pollock said residents will not need a permit to practice beekeeping on their property but will need to be registered with the Illinois Department of Agriculture as the state regulates the hives and keeps track of where they are.

All the funding for the project was received via fundraising except for the architect fees, which Frisch said is typically 10 percent of the cost of the project, or $12,500.

“It’s a requirement to have an architect sign off on this project and be involved,” he said. “We wouldn’t do this work without an architect.”

Continued from page 5 collected for the project.

The board also approved two contracts for construction and flooring. The first was awarded to general trade contractor Dave Knecht Homes., for $32,095, and the other was given to flooring contractor Top Performance for $94,400, bringing the total to $126,495.

Architect Dave Patton said the low bid from Dave Knecht Homes. was one of the reasons why the project transpired.

Work needed to fix VA hospital system Over the past several weeks, disturbing reports have emerged of widespread mismanagement at the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs which resulted in shockingly poor treatment of our veterans at facilities across the country, including at Chicagoland’s own Edward Hines Jr. VA Hospital.

News of secret, off-thebook waiting lists for vetCOMMUNITY erans seeking treatment in VOICE Phoenix used by VA officials Peter in order to artificially lower Roskam reported wait times for care clearly are just the tip of the iceberg. The VA scandal came into sharp focus this past week when the VA Inspector General confirmed suspicions of “systemic” delayed medical care and wait list fraud throughout the VA health system. Manipulating waiting lists enabled hospitals to circumvent the VA mandate where patients receive care within 14 days of submitting a request, which in turn yielded successful performance reviews and millions of dollars in bonuses for VA management officials. The IG’s report also found veterans at the Phoenix VA experienced average wait times of 114 days for primary care – nearly five times longer than what was officially reported – and 1,700 veterans were kept off waiting lists all together.

Since the scandal broke, the VA reportedly has expanded its investigation from 10 to 42 medical facilities nationwide. While the Department is not disclosing which facilities are under investigation, I hope and expect they will look into allegations of secret waiting lists and improper delays at Hines VA Hospital, as well as claims veterans received informational briefings and in-group general consultations instead of necessary medical care, again a concerted effort to cook the books instead of meeting the needs of veterans.

Recently, the House passed the VA Management Accountability Act to give Department leaders every possible tool to improve management and hold their team responsible for delivering high-quality care to our nation’s veterans or else face termination. This legislation gives the VA secretary the legal authority to demote or fire senior department executives who are not fulfilling their responsibilities. The Senate should immediately take up this bill so we can send it to the president without delay. Sweeping changes are needed to eliminate institutional corruption and make the VA work again, and House Republicans are committed to making this right for our veterans and their families.

8OUR VIEW

Oak Brook a battleground for a difficult conversation The national conversation about entry-level wages was focused on Oak Brook recently when more than 100 protesters were arrested outside the McDonald’s corporate campus.

The protesters timed their May 21 and 22 demonstration for the annual McDonald’s shareholders’ meeting, hoping to put pressure on the company to address a host of concerns about wages, working conditions, opportunities for advancement and more.

The gulf between the protesters and the company is one of those wicked problems that defy simple explanation, let alone solution.

On the one side, there’s the argument that McDonald’s and similar companies under fire need simply raise salaries to $15 an hour and provide more chances for training and advancement.

The company, for its part, says that many of its employees are just teens and young adults getting their first job experience, kids who don’t need to support themselves, and that those jobs would disappear if the company raised

its baseline wages.

Regardless, it can be hard to reconcile the corporate executives taking home comfortable paychecks while at the lowest levels of the company, single parents who are the sole breadwinners for their families barely clear $17,000 a year – before taxes – if they’re working full time in Illinois.

On the other hand, there can be no disputing that running a multinational company and maintaining market leadership for decades takes more skill and experience than serving up individual meals, and we live in a society that has opted to incentivize career advancement and skill development with higher salaries and benefits for those who do manage to advance.

It’s easy to demonize both McDonald’s and the protesters, but that would ignore that both sides have legitimate claims.

Here’s hoping that in future years there can be a dialog between them, rather than Oak Brook police having to take away scores of well-meaning people in handcuffs.

Farmers market coming June 11 to Darien

By DANNY CIAMPRONE dciamprone@shawmedia.com DARIEN – There are a few things that signal the start of summer: smoke pluming from a barbecue, pool openings, graduation commencements and of course, farmer’s markets.

Summer also is special time for area park districts, which host an array of camps, classes and outdoor activities; but for the Darien Park District, this summer is especially sweet because it marks the park district’s 40th anniversary.

Darien Park District Fitness Center/Athletic Supervisor Tim O’Brien said to celebrate the 40th anniversary, one of the ideas was to incorporate 40 special events starting this summer and then continuing throughout the year.

When a staff member suggested bringing a farmer’s market to Darien, O’Brien saw the opportunity for a staple summer event.

“I didn’t want it to be a one and done type thing because you wouldn’t really get the commitment from vendors for just one day.

You want to build up an audience base.”

Tim O’Brien Darien Park District Fitness Center/athletic supervisor

“I didn’t want it to be a one and done type thing because you wouldn’t really get the commitment from vendors for just one day,” O’Brien said.

“You want to build up an audience base.”

O’Brien said the market, open 3 to 7 p.m. Wednesdays at Darien Community Park, 7100 Clarendon Hills Road, will feature traditional fruits and vegetables but also will have an array of other items, including baked goods, jellies, salsa, barbecue sauces, artisan cheeses, cakes, kettle corn, shaved ice and funnel cakes.

“We want to make sure that

every vendor we have kind of has their share of the market and we don’t want a lot of crossover and duplication,” he said.

The premiere market will feature between 15 and 17 vendors, each of which are paying a $200 fee for the summer.

O’Brien said one of the reasons for the event also was to give residents a market to call their own.

“What’s nice about this particular market is Darien Community Park is kind of set in the neighborhood, so there’s going to be a lot of people that can just walk from their places, so I’m hoping to get a lot of

prone@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – A proposal to replace about 380 computers for Community Consolidated School District 181 teachers was unanimously approved May 27 by the Board of Education.

School board member Michael Nelson was absent from the vote.

The proposal was first addressed at the board’s May 12 Committee of the Whole meeting, when board members said they were worried about the cost of replacement.

That concern was once again echoed Tuesday, including from board member Brendan Heneghan, who asked if the vote could be delayed until a plan was in place.

The total cost for the 380 computers is about $480,000 and will be included in the proposed 2014-15 budget.

School board member Gary Clarin asked if withholding a vote would jeopardize the timing of machine distribution, and if such a delay could carry over to the start of the school year.

District 181 Director of Technology Eric Danley said he is expecting to receive and distribute the devices to teachers in late July, but if he didn’t receive approval by the end of May, he may not have time to meet deadline.

Heneghan also wondered what the negative effects to students’ education would be if teachers did not receive the new devices. Danley said a loss of productivity would occur

from slow machines or computer failure.

“If the computer fails, the teacher loses data, a lesson plan,” Danley said. “That’s going to impact all of the students for that teacher that day.”

Danley said he’s found that the hardware of the current devices has “held up,” but from a performance standpoint, he has been hearing feedback from teachers about computers being too slow.

Superintendent Don White recently reviewed the proposal and said the computers were as much a tool as anything else teachers use.

“I get that it’s expensive, this is a tool though the teacher is using to instruct,” he said.

“If the teacher doesn’t have a device they can rely on it puts them in a very difficult spot.”

By DANNY CIAMPRONE HINSDALE – the Hinsdale High School District 86 Board of Education on Monday voted 4-2, approving revisions to Policy 2:225, which addresses board members’ access to district documents, verbatim recordings and buildings.

Revised policy 2:225 comes in the wake of a settled 2013 lawsuit with former District 86 school board member Dianne Barrett.

According to the revi sions, “board members may access information maintained by or in the possession of the district, including documents, records and closed-session verbatim recordings, as well as access district premises, when necessary and relevant to a board member’s exercise of his/her official duties.”

Revisions to the policy had been tabled at prior meetings as some board members expressed concerns for student privacy.

On Monday, board member Jennifer Planson said she still is worried what parents will think when they learn board members still can access student records.

“In my opinion, that’s such an important issue and a core concern for a lot of the parents in the district,” she said.

While Planson also expressed concern about the “simplicity” of the revised policy, fellow school board member Victor Casini said he liked how it was simple and requires the board to abide by the law. He also said the revisions were welcoming considering the prior additions made.

“Sometimes we can get bogged down, and I think that’s what happened here – we tried to put together a new 2:225 and it got bogged down,” he said.

“Sometimes you have to start from scratch, and I like what’s here. I think this is a good policy for this district, and I’m in favor of it.”

But Planson did not see it the same way and said she remains concerned they will not be able to adequately protect

So what makes Meeder Design & Remodeling so different from the rest?

5 key points to policy To fulfill their responsibilities, board members may access information maintained by or in the possession of the district, including documents, records and closed session verbatim recordings. Board members also may access district premises if necessary and relevant to fulfilling his/ her official duties.

The right to access information includes documents, records, recordings and buildings which might not necessarily be available to members of the general public.

Board members may not access or use district information for the advancement of purely personal purposes. Further, requests for information may not unduly burden the resources of District 86 with voluminous or otherwise unreasonable requests.

Board members will be obligated to maintain the confidential nature (if any) of requested information as required by law and shall not re-disclose any confidential district information to any third party under penalty of applicable statute.

A board member’s access to district information is subject to all applicable restrictions in federal and Illinois law, in board policy and in any binding legal agreements.

recent decisions are short sighted.

I am especially concerned about the district’s relationship with its teachers and its ability to retain and attract outstanding educators. In my opinion, the current board tone is adversarial and condescending toward teachers, and in my dealings with teachers I find that morale is low. The board wants to be conservative in negotiations, but there is no reason to create an atmosphere where an outstanding teaching staff feels unappreciated and demoralized.

Another example of the short sighted approach is that job openings, for the most part, have not yet been filled.

Finally, although I commend the current board for its efforts to be frugal and improve business practices, it approved a 0 percent levy increase. Due to aging facilities, uncertainty regarding Illinois’s financial situation, soaring health care costs, and pension funding issues, this is too low. I believe that property values are closely tied to school quality and repu-

Restaurant reviews

Sweet & Savory hits the spot in Westmont WESTMONT – Buddy Holly’s older lookalike takes his place at the microphone, ukulele in hand, the waiter in a Frank Zappa T-shirt greets us with a smile, and the woman next to me, also with a ukulele, says, “I bet this isn’t what you were expecting for a first date.”

It was The Sweet & Savory Spot, and the name itself embodies the restaurant in both atmosphere and selection.

Sweet, delightful, quaint, and what was once the best kept secret in Westmont obviously has become a go-to favorite in the bustling downtown area along Cass Avenue.

A window storefront allowed an abundance of light to shine through the dining area on one of the first days people could actually call summer-like. Flowers decorating the tables were surrounded by guests’ mason jars of craft beer and lemonade, all set under a “Life is Sweet” sign. Meanwhile, our Buddy Holly friend queued up the first song.

“We’re going to kick it off how we always do with ‘Jambalaya,’” he said, and much like the sunny light from outside, the sweet sounds of summer allowed us a dream escape to a private beach in Hawaii.

But my stomach was urging me to move my focus from the guest entertainment to the menu – one entire page highlighted craft beer. As for food, almost every kind of sandwich was listed, along with appealing salads and comfort foods every guest could savor.

Those who know me know I’m a sucker for any kind of dip. In fact, after I retire from journalism, I have a plan to co-own my own full-service restaurant that serves craft beer, and then just assorted dips with finger food.

It’s called “Sips & Dips.” I can’t take credit for that – it was all my companion’s idea.

Don’t steal it.

So my eye immediately caught the grilled chicken sandwich topped with guaca-

The Sweet & Savory Spot has turned into a popular dining destination in downtown Westmont.

The grilled chicken sandwich was garnished with lettuce, tomato, onion and guacamole, and paired with a generous side of macaroni and cheese.

For a twist on a classic French favorite, the Croque Madame, served of food coming out to guests with a side salad, features a grilled Parker House roll, ham, Swiss, Mor- consistently kept the staff nay sauce, mustard and egg. busy, but at no time did I see a mole that was a perfect accompaniment to “Jambalaya” and the atmosphere the ukulele circle conjured.

My companion went with the Croque Madame, which I learned later that evening was a French ham and cheese sandwich. I had a bite and honestly can say I’ll never bypass a French take on ham and cheese, whose embellishments such as Mornay sauce and egg boost it up several

notches.

Dessert was classic and sweet, serving up an array of cupcakes, brownies and pie.

In fact, it was so good, it gave me inspiration for a new retirement/restaurant plan. It’s still a full-service restaurant, but now it only serves craft beer and pies.

I call it “Pies & Pints.”

That was my idea, so don’t steal it.

Cupcakes and full plates

waiter who wasn’t smiling or asking patrons if they needed anything else.

It wasn’t just the ukulele group I could tell was having a good time, but all the guests, who were arriving by the minute. When we first got there around the beginning of dinnertime, you were free to select a table.

After five minutes, the entry door rarely stayed shut as a steady stream poured in.

It was hypnotic to watch a

full room of people bob their heads to the musical tunes – and just for a little while, time slowed down to a point of delight on Cass Avenue.

Whether accompanied by ukuleles or not, The Sweet & Savory Spot has made me a regular customer.

Hinsdale Central takes home team title as Eddie Grabill wins singles

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com HINSDALE – Hinsdale Central’s boys tennis team is almost always among the favorites to win a state title.

That fact doesn’t diminish the satisfaction of winning a state championship, which the Red Devils did Saturday for the third year in a row.

“We’re more than satisfied,” Central head coach John Naisbitt said. “The boys played well, as they did all year. I was waiting to see if the other shoe would drop, waiting to see if we would finally have a bad weekend, and we didn’t.

“I couldn’t be more proud.”

Junior Eddie Grabill and Martin Joyce met in the singles championship match.

Grabill, who won a doubles title along with Harold Martin last season, defeated Joyce, the defending singles champ, 6-3, 4-6, 6-3.

“We did talk to them before the match and said, ‘Be good sports, care about each and represent yourselves well,’ and they did,” Naisbitt said.

“We didn’t coach them, we just let them play.

“It was a difficult match because we knew we were going to have someone lose. We were happy for Eddie, but we felt terrible for Martin. But Martin is a true champion, he took it as well as you can in that scenario.”

Junior Lope Adelakun and senior Chase Hamilton teamed up for second in the doubles draw, while sophomore Michael Czlonka and senior Jimmy Bruning finished fourth.

Naisbitt said that while the all-Central singles championship match drew attention, it was the play of the doubles teams that helped seal the state title.

Team score placement 1. Hinsdale Central, 56 points 2. Lake Forest, 41 3. New Trier, 34 4. Downers Grove South, 29 5. Stevenson, 27 “The doubles got the title for us,” the coach said. “They did what they needed to do and they effectively propelled us to the easy team victory.”

The Red Devils had the title locked up by the time the final rounds started on Saturday as Grabill, Joyce, Adelakun and Hamilton, and Czlonka and Bruning all won their first five matches at state.

The future remains bright for Central – four the the six state participants are slated to return next spring. Hamilton and Bruning graduated May 29.

“We’re going to miss the two seniors greatly, but we have four returners and they know the grind,” Naisbitt said.

“We have every reason to believe we can be there again next year.”

Hinsdale South Senior Greg Murray and sophomore Rohan Chinwalla teamed up to go 3-2 at the state tournament.

The duo won their first two matches in the main draw in straight sets, then rebounded from a loss with a 6-4, 6-4 in the consolation bracket.

“This is good for the seniors,” South head coach Pat Wolf said. “They’ve been working hard since they were freshman, and they’ve been working hard all season. Our seniors are great leaders and the last five or six games they’ve come to play, and in practice they’ve led the way.”

Central’s Magnesen, Nwosu muster all-state track finishes

By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com CHARLESTON – Being a part of the state champion cross country team in the fall is no doubt the top highlight in the prep career of Billy Magnesen.

But standing on the podium at the IHSA state track meet as the fifth-place finisher in the Class 3A 3,200-meter run Saturday was a close second, according to the Hinsdale Central senior.

“It’s very exciting,” said Magnesen, who finished 27th

in the 3,200 as a junior. “I’m honored to be a part of this group of guys, you have some of the best athletes in the state.”

Magnesen actually led for much of the race before being passed at the beginning of the final lap. He crossed the finish line in 9:12.13.

“We went out a little slow,” he said, “but I expected that because many of the guys were coming back from the mile [in Friday’s preliminaries). I scratched the mile to put myself in the best position [for Saturday’s 3,200].

“At the 1,200-meter mark, I decided it was time to pick it up and I kind of went for it. It was kind of disheartening to get passed by three guys at the same time, but with this type of field, there is nothing to complain about.”

After a successful senior season, he will continue his running career at the University of Illinois.

“I know it will definitely take a lot more commitment and time,” Magnesen said.

“But I’m definitely ready to move on. Hinsdale Central has been an amazing program to

prepare me for the next level.”

Joining Magnesen as an allstater was fellow senior Nkemjika Nwosu, who came in fourth in the triple jump. And while he was not completely pleased with his mark of 45 feet, 6.5 inches, the UIC recruit was happy with his medal.

“I could have done a little better,” Nwosu said. “You have to turn it on then and there, and I wasn’t able to.

“But I’m happy. For four years I have worked so hard for this. I wasn’t able to come down last year, I had a lot of injuries, and sophomore year,

I made it but didn’t make it to the finals. I’m happy I came down my senior year and did it.”

The 4x800 relay team of Kevin Huang, Trent Hyland, Nathan Hill and Jake Hall clocked a time of 7:56.25 in the prelims.

Victor Ciardelli crossed the finish line in 39.90 seconds in the prelims of the 300 hurdles while Kyle Stiff finished in 22.69 in the 200 dash.

Nwosu, Derek Robert, James Reilly and Stiff comprised the 4x100 that competed at state.

RIVER FOREST – Cali Vanderplow is one of the youngest members of Hinsdale South’s soccer team, but she scored one of the biggest goals of the season Tuesday.

The freshman scored with less than 10 minutes left in the first half of a Class 2A supersectional game against Northside Prep and in the process opened the floodgates for the Hornets. They scored two more times before intermission, went on to win 4-0 and booked their first trip to the state finals since 1990.

“When I put that first goal, I knew the energy of our team would be even higher,” Vanderplow said. “I’m happy. I’m so excited about this.”

Hinsdale South (19-5-1) will face Normal West in a state semifinal today. The winner moves on to the state championship game at 1 p.m. Saturday.

“Our program hasn’t done this in a long time,” senior defender Elisabetta Bifero said.

“It’s pretty cool to do it my senior year.”

On her goal, Vanderplow received the pass from Cassie Jensen, dribbled into space and around the Maroons’ charging keeper and buried the shot into a wide open net with 9:22 left in the first half. Jensen scored off Elisabetta Bifero’s corner kick with 5:23 to go before halftime and Kelly Flemm directed a pinpoint shot from outside

Hinsdale Central’s Austin Butler delivers a pitch May 30 in a regional semifinal game against Wheaton Warrenville South. Butler allowed just two hits in nine innings and the Red Devils won 1-0.

Seniors deliver in Red Devils’ regional win

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com BOLINGBROOK – A day after graduation, Hinsdale Central seniors Austin Butler and Max Peters put exclamation marks on their high school baseball careers.

Butler tossed a complete-game two-hitter and Peters drove in the winning run as the Red Devils defeated Wheaton Warrenville South 1-0 in nine innings in a semifinal game of the Bolingbrook regional May 30.

Butler shrugged off his performance, which brought his record to 4-4 for the season.

“I just went out there and tried to play as hard as I could every pitch of every inning,” he said. “I knew the defense

Senior roll call • Charlie Banke • Matt Bruns • Austin Butler • Ryan Haff • Matt Muellner • Max Peters • Nick Senicka • Spencer Wawak • Jacob White

was behind me making plays, and I knew we were going to score.

“These hitters, those base runners, everybody did their part and that’s why we won.”

Since Butler shied away from giving himself much credit, Hinsdale Central coach Jason Ziemer was more

than happy to throw some praise toward his ace.

“That was one of the best pitching performances I’ve been a part of,” Ziemer said.

“His pitch count was 80 through nine innings and he didn’t walk a guy. It was a dominant performance.”

Hinsdale Central put together a two-out rally in the bottom of the ninth. Matt Muellner doubled and Ben Chapman came in to pinch run. Mike Johnson was intentionally walked before Peters hit a sharp grounder down the third base line to bring Chapman home.

“It feels pretty good,” Peters said of bringing in the winning run. “He [WWS pitcher Brett Struebing] mixed up his locations really good so I just had to be ready

for my pitch.”

Soon after Chapman crossed home, Central’s players formed a dog pile on top of Peters at first base.

Central played against Plainfield North in the regional championship game the next day and lost 8-6.

The Red Devils (19-17) answered North’s three runs in the bottom of the first with three of their own in the second for a 5-3 lead. They led 6-4 after three innings but couldn’t fend off a late North rally.

Johnson, Muellner and Ryan Haff all drove in two runs and leadoff hitter Spencer Wawak scored twice. Haff, Muellner, Jacob White and Matt Bruns each scored a run while Haff and Mark Dykstra each had two hits.

Chicago Bears players Roberto Garza and Jon Bostic will host a football camp June 29 to July 2 at Benedictine University.

The camp is designed for players ages 7 to 18 and features daily instruction, lectures and demonstrations by Garza, Bostic and other members of the Bears. Overnight and day camp options are available.

For information or to register, visit www.footballcamps.com or call 301-575-9400.
