LOMBARD – Several businesses in Lombard say they’ve experienced chronic poor mail delivery service for at least the past year and, in many cases, longer.

The charges come about a year after the Lombard post office was inundated with complaints about spotty service.

Unlike last year, however, the fresh complaints cannot be chocked up to the weather.

Jozie Kiyabu, an employee at B. Haney & Sons at 1200 N. Lombard Road, said her issues with the mail service have nothing to do with the company’s regular carrier but “more to do with the management of the post office.”

Whenever the regular carrier is off, the mail comes late and sometimes it simply doesn’t come, Kiyabu said. Employees at three other businesses in the area also reported late mail, days without delivery and missing mail.

“We’ve had customers come here and drop off contracts because they don’t trust the mail,” Kiyabu said.

She said her company has experienced these problems for at least two years.

“We started noticing we were having some issues, and part of it was our mail carrier has been with the post office a long time, and any day he is on vacation or anything like that, our mail would always be late that day,” said Terri Tihlarik, accounting administration manager for Yorke Print Shoppe, 930 N. Lombard Road.

Like Kiyabu, Tihlarik said there also have been times when her business did not receive any mail at all – and they aren’t the only ones to make that complaint.

who you need to talk to,’ and they’d give me the name, email and phone number of the person in charge,” he said. “Trying to get that information from the post office is a mystery.”

If businesses can’t find a resolution by working with the post office directly, Niehaus suggested they contact their U.S. representative to make a formal complaint – something Kiyabu already has done.

Beverly Howard, USPS customer relations coordinator for the Chicago suburbs, said anyone with complaints about mail delivery should call 1-800275-8777.

“That way they can get it reported and documented and it will be in our database for anyone to view it,” she said.

Howard said the reason a slew of businesses between 900 and 1200 North Lombard Road have cause to complain is because of the occasional absence of both a regular and permanent substitute carrier.

Unlike city carriers, mail carriers in more rural communities, like Lombard, are required to sort through the mail on their route before they go out for delivery, Howard said. A carrier unfamiliar with the area will take longer to sort the mail properly, she said.

Howard said the post office apologizes for the poor service that has plagued businesses in the area and said officials there plan to pay extra attention to the route.

But an apology does little to alleviate the strain that delivery lags and lapses have placed on the area’s businesses.

“To be a business owner in this area, it’s literally, ‘Do we put our building up for sale and go elsewhere?’” Tihlarik said. “It’s to that point.”

“Sometimes it’s a couple of days that we don’t get our mail,” said Joyce Nemecek, a sales associate at the Chicago Roll Company, 970 N. Lombard Road.

Nemecek said poor mail service has affected her company for at least the past year.

“I would say that the trouble in the mail delivery times has been one that we’ve been plagued by for almost two years now, maybe a little less,” said Ed Walendy, finance manager for Green Horizon, 960 N. Lombard Road.

The problem became so bad that Walendy now drives his mail to the USPS distribution center in Carol Stream. It’s an inconvenient solution but one that has alleviated the problem, he said.

The impact poor mail service has on day-to-day operations of Tihlarik’s business is “devastating,” she said, adding her company has considered having its mail sent to an address in Addison to bypass the service in Lombard.

All employees said they or others at their respective companies have contacted the post office repeatedly to complain about the issue.

Lombard Village Manager Scott Niehaus said his department has received two complaints about poor mail service since December 2014. But that doesn’t mean more residents or businesses haven’t experienced problems, he said.

Part of the issue, Niehaus said, is that it’s not clear who exactly residents or businesses should complain to at the post office.

“If I went to the Park District, the school district or any other town, someone at the counter would say, ‘Here’s

eshields@shawmedia.com GLEN ELLYN – The Glenbard Township High School District 87 Board of Education has voted to approve improvement projects at the high schools not to exceed $2.3 million.

The board voted at its Feb. 23 meeting on the work and to have Legat Architects and Pekron Consulting prepare design drawings and bid specifications for it. The improvements are scheduled to take place during summer break.

The work being done is mostly annual preventative maintenance as identified through the master facility plan and annual building needs, according to board documents.

The board set a limit of $2.3 million on the project, estimating its total at $2.2 million.

The work at Glenbard South High School is anticipated to cost $81,587.

Crews will replace four interior and exterior steel doors and hardware, replace vinyl composite tiles in four corridors and install vinyl composite tile flooring in two classrooms.

At Glenbard West High School, a changing room with a sink will be constructed in a special education classroom. This is estimated to cost $25,000.

Total work at Glenbard North High School will be a little more than $1 million. This is where the most work will be done. Crews will replace asphalt paving and curbs in the west parking lot, replace window and door frames on a stair tower, replace fire-rated metal

doors on stair towers, renovate a pair of student restrooms, replace existing campus signs with an LED message sign and install new vinyl floors in the dance studio.

Glenbard East High School will have an acoustical baffle replaced on the Biester Auditorium stage. That is expected to cost $88,000.

The project also includes $455,072 of work to be performed at all schools.

That work includes improving security lighting; refinishing wooden sports floors; inspecting and replacing fire alarms, fire doors, sprinkler systems and fire extinguishers; inspecting and repairing basketball backstops and divider curtains; inspecting and repairing wooden and aluminum grandstands and improving kitchen equipment.

was wrong by the way Tessa walked.

“She had an abnormal gait, and we sensed it wasn’t developing properly,” he said.

The family saw a doctor at Lurie Children’s Hospital in Chicago who recognized Tessa’s symptoms and ordered the genetic testing that confirmed the CMT diagnosis.

“Doctors say she’s progressing rapidly and could be in a wheelchair by age 9,” Jay said. “Her fingers are already starting to curl, and she won’t have good range of motion in her hands.”

YOUR WEEKEND FORECAST

Jay said Tessa still can walk with the help of leg braces and does physical therapy and horseback riding to strengthen her calf muscles. He believes she’ll live a “productive life” but describes her condition as “very sad.”

“It’s a nasty disease, but she’s still very positive,” he said. “She knows she has it, and her friends know she has it.”

This is the first time the family has gotten involved with a fundraiser such as the one Sunday, Heather said.

“The hardest thing as a parent is that you can’t do anything about it. ”

It’s taken a long time for her to get to the “point of being ready to do something.”

“It’s been hard to accept help,” she said. “I’m the one helping others, so it’s strange being on the receiving end. I feel a little guilty; people work so hard for their money, and then they turn around and give it to help Tessa. We have amazing neighbors, family and support.”

Mary O’Brien, a neighbor of the Pate family, said she’ll be at Sunday’s event to support the family and she’s happy to help “shed light” on the disease.

“Tessa will change the face of CMT,” O’Brien said. “I hope this brings awareness and contributions for research because it’s underfunded. We’re thrilled to fight for Tessa.”

Heather thinks having Tessa see all the friends and family who come to support her will be a great experience, and Tessa herself said she can’t wait for Sunday. The 5-year-old said bowling makes her happy.

“I’m excited to bowl because it’s my favorite sport, and I hope I get a strike,” she said.

LOMBARD – Coming to terms with the fact her 5-year-old daughter could be in a wheelchair in a few years has been devastating for Lombard resident Heather Pate, whose daughter, Tessa, has Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease.

“The hardest thing as a parent is that you can’t do anything about it,” she said. “Every parent wants to fix what’s wrong with their child or trade places with them. But she’s only going to get worse.”

CMT is a degenerative nerve disease that can rob its victims of the ability to walk or use the muscles in their hands.

There is no cure or treatment. It affects about one in 2,500 people in the United States and more than 2.5 million people worldwide have it, yet not many are familiar with it, said Jay Pate, Tessa’s father. He said she has type 2A, which is more aggressive.

“We realize this is what we have and what we’re dealing with, and we’re going to do everything in our power to help her,” Heather said. “That’s all we can do.”

The family is doing its part to help by hosting a benefit for the Charcot-Marie-Tooth Association from noon to 3 p.m. Sunday at Lombard’s Lucky Strike Lanes. The cost for bowling, shoe rental and food is $40 for adults and $15 for kids. All the proceeds go directly to the association to fund research for treatment and a cure.

CMT research does not receive funding from the government, Jay said.

“We’re out to bring awareness,” he said. “We need money for research, and we’re trying to get more and more people involved. We need to let people know it’s here, it’s serious and we’re looking for help.”

Heather said she’s very hopeful there will be treatment or a cure in Tessa’s lifetime. There’s a trial for a promising drug that should be available in about four years, she said.

Tessa was diagnosed with CMT at age 3. Jay said they knew something

Fitness business finds success in Lombard

editorial@mysuburbanlife.com LOMBARD – Lombard’s Elite X Training is celebrating one year of offering classes and educational programs that are making people’s lives healthier.

“It’s been going fantastic,” said Derek Unnasch, one of the owners of Elite X Training, 14 W. Willow St. “We’ve experienced some major growth this year.”

Unnasch said they offer a wide variety of unique classes such as Pilates, yoga, kickboxing, boot camps, kids classes and signature classes, such as a strength and muscular class and a body-toning class.

“We’re big on small group training,” said Unnasch, explaining they believe that personal attention is important, so the classes are for five to 15 people.

In addition to more personal attention, the small groups also promote a more “fun and social atmosphere,” Unnasch said.

Elite X Training also offers personal training, which is generally done for one to three people during a session.

One of the popular programs at Elite X Training is an eight-week course called Body Transformation Challenge, where participants set re-

Unnasch said the program focuses on support, accountability and education, and the next session starts Saturday.

The Body Transformation Challenge provides weekly educational meetings about topics such as functional foods, eating properly for exercise, emotional eating and cravings, and more.

Unnasch said the program has been

successful, and one couple lost almost 50 pounds during one of its sessions.

Co-owner Tracy Bushka, who lives in Lombard, became a fitness instructor about 15 years ago.

“I got this idea to convert my garage into a small studio,” said Bushka, who started to run those classes from her garage six years ago.

Bushka teaches weight training,

kickboxing and boot camp at Elite X Training.

“Most of the reason why we grew was word of mouth,” she said. “They are happy where they are.”

Bushka said the studio is unique because it offers various packages per month such as eight classes, 12 classes, 16 classes and an unlimited package. Guests also can pay for a one-time drop-in class, she said.

Bushka’s goal is to see people happy and feeling and looking good.

“You get to know the people that come to your classes,” Bushka said of small group training.

She said people feel comfortable working out in their classes.

The studio also holds monthly social gatherings and participates in local events.

“We try to be very civic-minded,” Unnasch said.

By NATHAN LURZ nlurz@shawmedia.com A new bill introduced to the state House of Representatives could spell the end of the Forest Preserve District of DuPage County Board of Commissioners.

On Feb. 26, state Rep. Deb Conroy, D-Villa Park, filed House Bill 3099 that would extend the terms of all current board members until 2018, after which their responsibilities would be transferred to the DuPage County Board.

Conroy said the move was about efficiency and saving money for taxpayers while still caring for county natural resources.

“When I was first elected two years ago, I Deb Conroy started looking at areas where we could save taxpayer dollars, and the forest preserve was one of the first ones,” she said. “In looking into that, I realized it was the only forest preserve board in the state

of Illinois that is paid independently in that way.”

The DuPage County Board had long had control over the forest preserve, but the county created the separate elected board in 2002 and cut down the number of County Board members from 24 to 18, according to the forest preserve’s website.

Conroy said eliminating the board of six commissioners and president could save taxpayers more than $500,000 annually by eliminating the board’s salary and insurance costs – which she claims cost up to $77,209.50 per commissioner each year.

“With the situation that we are in now financially, every taxpayer dollar is important,” she said.

In 2013, Conroy introduced a similar bill that would have let voters decide whether to have the board continue without receiving compensation. Another bill from former Rep. Dennis Reboletti from the same year would have done the same while dissolving the board in 2016.

Under the new bill, the County Board chairman would appoint a fulltime liaison to advise the board on forest preserve issues. DuPage County Board Chairman Dan Cronin said while he supported the mission of the forest preserve, he would be open to a conversation on the best way to go about it.

“Rep. Conroy is proposing a different model – different than the old one, different than the current one – so let’s be honest and open minded about it and take a look at it, just as long as it protects and preserves the open space and environmental habitats,” he said.

Forest preserve commissioner Tim Whelan called the legislation unnecessary and “not very well thought throug,” adding there are plenty of other, more efficient areas to focus cuts.

He said he believes the County Board should be separate from the tasks of the forest preserve.

“Our mission is preservation and acquisition of and preservation of green space ... and the County Board is more about the concepts of economic development and development,” he said. “Each government agency is different from the beginning – that was the motivation for dividing the boards up in the first place.”

Board members frequently meet with staff, constituents and stakeholders outside of official board meetings, Whelan said, providing more perspective.

“I feel that to be able to serve the taxpayers of DuPage County from a forest preserve perspective, it is better to have our own board and discuss these issues every day, every week, so we can assure we have our preservation,” he said.

ADDISON – Addison was the site of a youth wheelchair basketball tournament Saturday, hosted by Synergy Adaptive Athletics, an agency dedicated to adaptive sports in DuPage County and the surrounding area.

Synergy recently was formed by the Northeast DuPage Special Recreation Association and Western DuPage Special Recreation Association.

Its mission is to allow people with physical disabilities and visual impairments the opportunity to live life to its fullest.

The tournament ran from 1 to 8 p.m. at the recreation association, 1770 W. Centennial Place. In addition to Addison, the recreation association also serves other towns such as

Lombard and Villa Park.

Eight teams from the north shore, western suburbs and Chicago competed in the tournament in preparation for the national wheelchair basketball tournament in April in Kentucky.

Synergy manages two junior-level teams. The preparatory team, for ages 12 and younger, plays on an 8.5-foot basket and uses a smaller ball. The JV team, for ages 13 to 21, plays with regulation-size basketballs and 10-foot baskets.

Nearly all of the rules are identical to NCAA regulations, with a few exceptions. The most significant rule is that players must dribble the ball after touching their chairs’ wheels twice.

Chairs are expected to make contact; however, no recklessness or holding wheelchairs is permitted.

Willis Griffin recently got as close to NHL action as most will ever get.

The Hinsdale Central JV hockey coach and Oakbrook Terrace resident was named the BMO Harris Bank Coach of the Month for February and was hon-

ored during an on-ice accomplishment before the Feb. 24 Chicago Blackhawks game at the United Center.

Griffin was one of three honored at the game, as BMO Harris Bank also honored a Youth Player of the Month and Volunteer Coach of the Month on Feb. 24.

Springtime weather coming soon, brings lilacs to Lombard As winter slowly melts away, the hope of spring becomes closer to reality. It’s almost time to put away the shovels, sleds and ice skates and bring out the lawn mowers, golf clubs and bicycles. The changing of seasons always seems to give off an exciting vibe. At one point, most of us were probably excited for the first snow and now we urge for backyard barbecues, blooming flowers and bringing our fitness rouCOMMUNITY tine outdoors. People tend to VOICE enjoy a new season because Jill it’s a great opportunity for a fresh start or a deep cleanse.

Wejman In Lombard, the spring season is often the most anticipated season because of the blooming lilacs and Lilac Time. It is impossible to separate Lombard from its lilacs. For almost a century, Lombard has been identified with them as much as Milwaukee with beer and Corning with glass.

Lombard owes its collection to Col. William Plum and his wife Helen Maria Williams Plum. In September 1927 the people of Lombard voted to accept the stipulations as set down by Colonel Plum and the Lombard Park District came to be. The famous landscape architect Jens Jensen was commissioned by the Park District to design what was called the Lombard Community Garden, now known throughout the area as Lilacia Park.

Lilacia Park is located at 150 S. Park Avenue, Lombard, and is home to Lilac Time. Lilac Time is a communitywide two-week festival held from May 2 to 17, 2015. It celebrates the history of Lombard’s lilacs with coronation, historical tours, tastings, entertainment and the Lilac Mutt Strut. A full schedule of events is available in the Spring Activity Guide and on our website at www.lombardparks.com. A Lilac Time website will be released later this month to showcase all event happenings and information. The Bloom-O-Meter also will be available as soon as the first sight of spring occurs.

Whether your excitement for spring is because of an outdoor fitness routine, blooming lilacs, warmth and sunshine, or any other numerous reasons, the season is upon us. For a variety of spring programming opportunities, visit the Park District’s website.

OUR VIEW

Transparency fight is renewed in Springfield Here we go again.

Some lawmakers in Springfield again are taking aim at making government less transparent.

Republican state Rep. Joe Sosnowski of Rockford has filed House Bill 261. If passed, it would end the publication of all public notices in newspapers in favor of government websites. The legislation states when a governmental unit is required to provide notice by publication in a newspaper by law, order of court or contract, the governmental unit may publish the notice on an official government website instead of in a newspaper.

You might recall a similar assault of transparency occurred in 2011, when a similar bill was filed. It was unsuccessful.

Proponents of the bill say it would save governments money. The trade off might seem sensible, but a closer look exposes the legislation for what it is: a stealthy assault on open government under the guise of saving money. Newspapers, of course, have a vested interest in this matter: The bill would take revenue from most newspapers.

For decades, however, public notices have been printed in newspapers for a good reason: to provide the greatest verifiable public exposure for the money spent. (Public notices are billed at a discounted ad rate, by the way).

The audience provided by a local newspaper dwarfs the number of readers on a local governmental website. The legislation’s flaws become more apparent with the realization many people still don’t use or have

access to the Internet, especially the poor, the elderly, minorities and the disabled.

Ample proof exists that local governments blatantly disregard the law when it comes to posting information online. A recent audit conducted by the Citizens Advocacy Center studied more than 750 public body websites in Illinois.

In cases where local governments already are required by law to post information on their websites, the compliance rates were abysmal.

Only 73 percent complied with posting notice of upcoming meetings, a mere 57 percent complied with posting proposed meeting agendas and less than half – 48 percent – complied with posting approved meeting minutes.

And remember, Illinois has an excessive number of taxing bodies. Citizens would have to check each one to monitor legal ads, which provide notice of such things as public meetings, budget hearings and government expenditures. That’s much less efficient for the public than having a one-stop source for public notices – the local newspaper.

For people who use the Internet, Illinois newspapers (including this one) already offer a free, online public notice service. Visit www. publicnoticeillinois.com/ to search for public notices from this community and many others.

HB 261 is sitting in the House Counties & Township Committee. That’s where it should die. The bill is a risky step backward for the interests of open, honest, above board government.

In Illinois, it’s absolutely the wrong step to take.

Please clean up after your pets in both public and private spaces. First, to be considerate so children don’t come home with waste on their clothing. Second, it’s a health hazard. Diseases are spread, and rats eat waste as a protein source.

JUST SCRATCHING THE SURFACE There are a number of lens materials available to consumers that fit a variety of needs.

While most provide wearers of eyeglasses all that they may be looking for, some require add-on coatings that make them even more perfect choices. For instance, “high-index” lenses are lightweight and allow those with strong prescriptions to wear thin lenses. To make them even better, users of high-index lenses often opt for an “anti-reflective” coating that improves clarity and reduces reflection, thereby improving vision under strong light and at night. Those choosing highly impact-resistant “polycarbonate” lenses often elect to protect this easily scratched material with a “scratch-resistant” coating. Ask about the various available coatings, including UV-blocking, when purchasing lenses.

The lenses you select for your eyeglasses often will determine how happy you are with your eyewear. Of course, the frame you choose is important to both your appearance and your comfort, but the lenses you choose influence appearance, comfort, vision, and safety.

When selecting eyewear, please stop by SKOWRON EYE CARE. Our experienced frame stylists will make sure you get the look you want, from traditional to contemporary to just plain fun. At Skowron Eye Care, our mission is your vision.

P.S. Photochromic coated lenses adjust to the amount of ultraviolet light to which they are exposed, thereby reducing eyestrain and eye fatigue for the wearer.

I was just reading the article on “College of DuPage officials respond to radio station fraud.” It seems to me that they’re putting quite a spin on this. One thing they seem to feel is because the percentage, when you figure it that way, is so low when it comes to the cost that it’s insignificant. Maybe I’m not reading this article correctly, but it surely seems to me that the COD officials don’t regard the taxpayers at all. I’m really upset right now.

PARCC makes 2015 Year of Over Testing It’s always fun in January to identify the name of the Chinese lunar calendar for the New Year. While we are aware that 2015 is the Year of the Goat, in education circles we are calling this year the Year of Over Testing.

For high schools in Illinois, along with the annual college admissions ACT, spring Advanced Placement exams and the usual end of course exams, we are now implementing the new Partnership for Assessment of Readiness for College and Careers assessments in English 1 and algebra 1 for all students in these courses (mostly freshmen). The PARCC assessment also will be given to all students in grades third to eighth, also in math and English. This new rigorous assessment, based on the Common Core Standards, will measure not only students’ knowledge of content, but also their ability to analyze, reason and problem solve.

This lengthy computer-based exam will allow for tracking each student’s growth toward key career and college readiness standards, thus ramping up the accountability.

As we watch the national debate and discussion regarding testing and accountability, we know 2015 is

Popcorn - Candy Ice Cream

COMMUNITY VOICE David Larson a pivotal year. So as was we embark further into this Year of Over Testing let’s make a few key predictions of what will happen as students, teachers, parents, school districts and the general public contend with over testing. These predictions include the following:

Unaware universities and colleges: Ask any university admissions official about the PARCC assessments and you will get a confused and bewildered look. Because of this lack of engagement and ownership by post-secondary schools, the credibility, purpose and role of the PARCC assessment as a college admissions measure will continue to be undermined.

Disengaged high school students: Because the ACT has been a key criteria that colleges and universities have used in the application/selection process, parents and students will question the value and purpose of the PARCC assessments. Because high school students will have little “skin

in the game,” they may not have the intrinsic motivation and necessary effort for success. We know it’s hard to fool a teenager.

Less joy and wonder for learning: For grades 3 to 8, the PARCC assessment will replace the Illinois Standard Achievement Test.) The PARCC exam is longer and significantly more rigorous. This increased level of critical thinking and analysis required in answering questions will require a new kind of persistence and focus on the part of students.

States that have already implemented the PARCC exams, including Kentucky and New York, have noted high levels of student frustration and anxiety.

Frustrated teachers: Rolling out the high stakes PARCC assessments without a trial implementation year has caused undue stress and anxiety on the part of instructors. No rehearsals, exhibition and preseason to ensure a smooth transition. This will result in stifled creativity and “teaching to the test.”

Logistical quandaries: The much longer PARCC exams come in two waves, with the performance-based

• PARCC Continued from page 14 assessment in early spring and the end-of-year portion during the last weeks of school. Along with the Advanced Placement, ACT and end of course assessments, you will hardly find a day this spring that is not disrupted by testing. Additionally, many school districts lack the technological infrastructure to provide the online testing.

Each local school district embraces a comprehensive K-12 assessment system that supports accountability, informs instruction, is used as a metric for college admissions and is aligned to college and career readiness skills, including the Common Core.

Unfortunately, implementation of the PARCC assessments is bound to miss the mark on this standard.

In this “Year of Over Testing,” we’re holding our students and teachers to higher standards. If only we held the PARCC policymakers and planners to a similarly high bar.

Consumer Tips

What’s up in roofs? Metal growing in popularity (BPT) - It’s hard to believe, but the 2013-14 polar vortex wasn’t all bad. Sure, it brought North America record cold and snow, in one of the worst winters ever. But the weather phenomenon’s silver lining was in persuading many homeowners it was time to forever abandon their conventional roofs for something better. That “something” is the increasingly popular metal roof.

According to the St. Louis-based Metal Roofing Alliance (MRA), the residential metal roofing market has grown by double digits in the last five years. Residential roofing experts report metal roofing is winning converts based on its durability, fire-resistance, energy savings, value and natural good looks.

“People are getting tired of having to replace asphalt shingles every 10 to 12 years,” says Brian Cosyns, president of Metal Roof Outlet in Courtland, Ont., which installs hundreds of metal roofing systems yearly. “People are becoming more and more educated on metal roofing, and are seeing the longevity of it ... after completing [a metal roofing] job, you’ve made a big difference in appearance, energy savings and the value of the home.”

The MRA reports non-metal roofs last 17 years on average, but metal roofs can last a lifetime. Though higher in initial costs, they can boost homes’ resale value. They can also cut homeowners’ insurance premiums in some states by up to 35 percent.

Among factors underpinning the growth of metal roofs, few are more important than the roofing systems’ fire-resistance, the alliance reports.

The product Cosyns’ firm installs, Allmet Stone-Coated Metal Roofing, and another brand, Gerard Stone-Coated Metal Roofing

Stone-coated metal roofing systems, such as those from Allmet and Gerard, offer Class A fire resistance, energy-savings, and great durability.

Systems, both tout the benefits of their Class A Fire Ratings. This fire resistance adds to particularly high demand for these roofing systems in wildfire-prone areas of North America.

The extra durability that stone-coated metal roofing systems provide is identified as another factor in their increasing use.

These systems don’t rot, warp, crack or break. They are superior to conventional roofing systems in standing up to extreme weather with a 2.5 inch hailstone warranty, Class 4 impact rating, and 120 mile per hour wind warranty.

Metal roofs last two to three times longer than ordinary roofs, meaning they can last 40 to 60 years or longer, according to the MRA. While conventional roofs in darker colors absorb the sun’s rays, metal roofing actually reflects them. That decreases sum-

mertime cooling loads and also insulates against winter’s cold, saving homeowners utility costs.

Metal roofing’s aesthetics are realistic and mimic natural roofing products, experts say. Both Allmet and Gerard stone-coated metal roofing systems offer an array of styles, from natural clay tiles to wood shake, natural slate and asphalt-like shingles. “The shake resembles natural shake perfectly, and the tile resembles clay tile,” Cosyns says of the Allmet roofs his firm installs throughout Ontario.

Cosyns reports homeowner customers like the functional benefits of stone-coated metal roofs, and really enjoy their curb appeal. “They love the appearance the roof provides the home,” he says. For more information, visit: www.allmet.comor Gerardusa.com.

FREDDIE MAC

Quotes from Steve Guggenmos, senior director of Freddie Mac Multifamily investments and research: “The multifamily market will see another strong year in 2015, albeit at lower levels than in 2014.

Even as many more properties are completed and new supply is delivered to the market, demand and absorption rates will remain high through 2015 due to favorable demographics and an overall sturdier economy. However, we will see more dispersion across metros as some smaller metros that have been slower to recover pick up steam.”

About Freddie Mac Freddie Mac was established by Congress in 1970 to provide liquidity, stability and affordability to the nation’s residential mortgage markets. Freddie Mac supports homeowners and renters nationwide by providing mortgage capital to lenders.

Today Freddie Mac is making home possible for approximately one in four home borrowers and is one of the largest sources of financing for multifamily housing. Additional information is available at FreddieMac.com, Twitter @FreddieMac and Freddie Mac’s blog FreddieMac.com/blog.

ED • Friday, March 6, 2015 • mysuburbanlife.com • Suburban Life

Outlook Highlights: • The amount of multifamily supply that will be delivered in 2015 will surpass pre-recession averages, but a sturdier economy and favorable demographics will produce another strong year for multifamily.

•Multifamily starts and completions are expected to continue their upward trend, with starts continuing to rise through 2015 and perhaps 2016, and completions to remain above the average for several years to come.

•Supply could begin to outpace demand this year. However, depending on how much pent-up demand is released, demand could continue to outpace supply.

•The multifamily capitalization rate will stay under 6 percent this year.

•Vacancy rates will rise in most Metropolitan Statistical Areas (MSAs) in 2015 as new supply becomes available and rent growth will vary among markets.

•Vacancy rates will revert to historical averages in Baltimore; Ft. Lauderdale, Florida; Los Angeles; Philadelphia; Salt Lake City; Jacksonville, Florida; Norfolk, Virginia; and Washington, D.C. •The top 10 list of MSAs with the lowest vacancy rates and highest percentage of gross income growth includes many of the usual suspects, such as Boston, New York, and San Francisco.

However, she also realizes that her high school career is not all about herself. She strives to use her talents to serve the community, by tutoring and by volunteering as a musician at her church. Over the past few years she has become a leader in our school; formally, she has been a student leader in our All Access choir and the Adapted PE class while informally she led by setting a positive example in class.”

Benet Academy Kyle Kenagy Academic Achievements: First Honors throughout high school; National Honor Society School Activities: Benet Academy Soccer (9-12); S.A.L.T. - Student Outreach; Philosophy Club (11); Benet Basketball (10,11); Chicago Tribune Athlete of the Month; Naperville Sun Player of the Year; Boys High School All-American Team; Chicago Sun Times All-Chicagoland Team; IHSSCA All-State

Kyle has enhanced our school not only with his skills on the soccer ield (invited to the National Soccer Coaches Association of America All-America team and the Illinois High School Soccer Coaches Association All-State team to name a few) but through his service at Benet and the community. Kyle founded a program where he brings activities to a local mental health center. Kyle believes that these 18-50 year old citizens with special needs have to stay active and he is doing his best to keep them healthy while bringing his fellow classmates and the Benet Outreach Program along with him. Kyle’s kind and accepting manner is what draws people to him and allows him to bring groups of people together for this endeavor as well as others.

Kyle has been able to maintain a stellar 93.41 GPA while managing an extremely busy schedule. He was taught from the best, his grandfather, what the value of hard work, determination and a great education is. As Kyle states, his grandfather does not see anything as an obstacle and has a “just get it done” attitude. Kyle has adopted this attitude and it has propelled him to where he is today. One of his favorite quotes, “The second you think you are better than someone is the second that you are not.” Kyle is approachable, gracious, and humble.

He has everything a parent, teacher, and/or friend could ask for. He is serious about being a good citizen and practices what he preaches. Kyle is a respected member of Benet’s student body as well as in the community. I am sad to see him graduate because of the great example he is to our younger students. Ah, but Benet has had their turn. Look out Yale, Kyle is coming.”

Detoxification 101: Myths, Facts and Healthy Ways to Detox Your Body for Lasting Results.

Detoxification has become the hot, new trend to lose weight fast while cleansing the body, but it is not that simple. Proper detoxification is a process that many do not fully understand.

Simply changing what you eat and how you eat it does not detox your body as you may think. Join us for Detoxification 101 so you can avoid the myths, learn the facts and find healthy ways to detox your body for lasting results -without the headache.

HOSTED BY:

Cross Fit Training, Eating for Energy, Performance and Lean Physique.

Cross Fit training programs are all the rage these days because of their ability to have an exercise approach and be a competitive fitness sport.

CrossFit incorporates high interval training, Olympic weightlifting, plyometric kettle ball lifting, gymnastic, calisthenics and more. Britt Chamberlin Crowe an instructor at CrossFit OLAF in Batavia, will discuss how the proper nutrition, strength training, cardiovascular training, rest/repair and proper mindset will assist in achieving one’s fitness and body composition goals.

Goal Setting to reach your full potential Everyone has a starting point.

Whether you are a novice or experienced athlete, we all are looking to improve in one way or another.

That improvement might be to lose weight, to place in your age group in a local or national race, or simply to improve your fitness. Setting goals will give you motivation and boosts self-confidence. Having those goals, adjusting, and learning how to set them can help you achieve them. Ryan Giuliano started from not knowing how to swim in college to becoming the top ranked amateur Ironman athlete in the world in 2015.

It has required him to set many short term and long term goals and keeping motivated and disciplined to attain them. He will discuss how to plan goals out and follow through to meet them.

Up-and-down East falls in regional playoff Peterkin’s 22 not enough as Rams drop in overtime

By MATT LE CREN editorial@shawmedia.com HILLSIDE – So close, yet so far.

In an ending that typified Glenbard East’s up-and-down season, the Rams saw two potential game-winning shots rim out in the final seconds of Tuesday’s 49-48 overtime loss against host Proviso West in a Class 4A regional quarterfinal.

Glenbard East (13-16) had tied the game when junior Patrick Peterkin scored and was fouled with 1:10 left in overtime. But Peterkin, who tallied a game-high 22 points, missed the free throw and Darius Jones split a pair of foul shots to give the Panthers (12-13) the lead with 7.2 seconds remaining.

Peterkin’s 3-pointer from 21 feet rimmed out. The Rams had one last gasp when Jack Grigat got the rebound but missed a putback from the left baseline as time expired.

“Our best kid [Peterkin] who had 22 points had a look, didn’t go, and I thought we crashed the glass,” Glenbard East coach Scott Miller said.

“And that’s the one thing I’m proud of our guys for: they don’t quit.

“Even when we were down 10 in the third quarter we kept fighting back, and we did that all year. We weren’t always pleased with our results, but the effort was always there.”

That effort, though, proved to be too inconsistent Tuesday. The Rams gave up steals and easy layups at the end of the first and second quarters, and the Panthers capped 13-0 run with a three-point play on the first possession of the sec-

“It felt like [the game] is kind of a microcosm of the season,” Miller said. “That is the way we played – peaks and valleys.

“We just gave them too much in the first and second quarters. At the end of those quarters we had turnovers where we gave the ball back and you just can’t do that.”

Even so, the Rams used an 18-2 run to take a 35-29 lead early in the fourth quarter. But the Panthers surged back in front before a basket by Mike Finley with 1:32 remaining sent the game to overtime.

Peterkin made two free throws to put Glenbard East up 44-42, but the Rams were just 6-for-16 from the line overall.

With several starters returning, Miller is optimistic about the future.

“We feel like we’ve got a good group coming back but we’ve got to get better in all facets of the game,” Miller said. “And I think they will.

They’re good kids, they’re committed and they realize that fundamentally we’ve got to get better.”

Broncos girls hoops gets back to finals to defend state title

By DAVE OWEN editorial@mysuburbanlife.com CHICAGO – The Montini girls basketball team’s return to Redbird Arena wouldn’t have been possible without a trey-mendous sectional final shooting performance by Kaylee Bambule.

The sophomore’s six 3-point baskets against Marshall led a long distance barrage by the Broncos, who turned a 36-31 deficit midway through the third quarter into a 54-48 win Feb. 26 in the Class 3A sectional final at Orr High School.

“They gave us shots and we hit them,” Montini coach Jason Nichols said. “A huge, huge job by Kaylee and everybody. Some of them may have had only one 3, but they were all huge.”

On Monday, the Broncos knocked off Antioch 61-44 in a supersectional at Hoffman Estates to book a trip to state for the sixth straight season.

Against Orr, none of Montini’s 12 3-pointers were bigger than Bambule’s last two. Up 42-40 after more than five scoreless minutes to open the fourth quarter, Bambule reignited the Broncos with a trifecta to make the score 45-40 with 2:20 left.

“Coach took me out (with the score 42-40) and said ‘you need to hit a big shot,’” Bambule said.

Then with the score 47-42, Bambule sealed the win with another 3-pointer with 50 seconds to go.

“When we get open looks and put them down, it’s pretty hard to beat us,” Bambule said. “What’s amazing about our team is that we can all shoot.”

Bambule (18 points) was aided behind the arc by Lea Kerstein (eight points) and Emily Cochrane (six), who hit two treys each. Center Rainey Kuykendall had 10 points and six rebounds against Marshall.

“That’s a really good team, an athletic team,” Nichols said. “I’m proud of

our girls. They were more athletic than us, they were physically a little bigger than us, but we were tough as nails.”

That toughness really came into play in the third quarter with Marshall up 36-31. An 11-2 Montini run to close that quarter included 3s by Kerstein, Bambule (for a 39-36 lead) and Cochrane.

“We didn’t want to go down,” Bambule said. “We have two seniors on this team and we didn’t want this to be their last game.”

The win against Antioch earned Montini its sixth straight trip downstate, but nail-biting wins against Glenbard South (34-31 in the sectional semifinals) and Marshall were the biggest postseason tests for the young Broncos’ squad to pass.

“Coach always tells us we need to find our own identity, and we’re finding it which is great for us,” Bambule said. “The tradition is Montini going downstate.”

Class 3A state semifinal n WHO: Montini (30-5 ) vs. Morton

(31-3)

n WHERE: Redbird Arena, Normal n WHEN: 12:15 p.m. today n OUTLOOK: The Potters only need to

make a 29-mile trip from Morton to Redbird Arena, so they could bring a good crowd. Montini shouldn’t be rattled by any crowd considering the team’s experience at state. The Broncos are looking for back-to-back state titles but will attempt to do so with a team that has just two seniors.

Two years ago, Montini beat Morton for third place in Class 3A. Leading scorer Chandler Ryan (15.5 points per game), now a junior, was a starter on that Potters team. Sophomore Brandi Bisping is averaging 13.5 points and 7.8 rebounds per game.

us a little bit.”

Willowbrook went from a 2-25 team in 2013-14 to a squad that orchestrated a 15-game winning streak en route to a 21-7 record and the program’s first West Suburban Gold conference championship.

“It’s a difficult way to end the season,” Perkins said. “But after the game we tried to emphasize the positives as far as what they were able to accomplish this year. I told them that no matter what, they are the most successful team that came through our school in 42 years.”

Willowbrook’s first 20-win season since 1972 is certainly something to build off going forward, Perkins said, explaining the culture change within the program extended far beyond the gym.

“They built excitement and brought a lot of energy back to the school and community,” he said. “There is a lot to be proud of.”

DOWNERS GROVE – Willowbrook’s boys basketball team had no answer for Downers Grove North’s quick start Wednesday night.

The short-handed Warriors dug themselves into a 10-0 hole to begin Wednesday’s Downers Grove South regional semifinal and could not regain their footing, falling 65-52 to the Trojans.

For a second straight game, Willowbrook was without standout sophomore guard Alonzo Verge Jr., who did not play because of family issues, according to head coach Chris Perkins.

Without Verge’s 23 points per game, Willowbrook was on the wrong end of the Trojans’ 10-0 run in a first quarter that featured five Downers Grove North 3-pointers. Jake Bruns’ 14 firsthalf points kept the Warriors in the game, but the No. 5 seed in the Aurora East sectional still trailed 40-28 at halftime.

Downers Grove North junior Devin Blake scored six of the Trojans’ 11 third-quarter points while Willowbrook could only muster five points in the quarter. DGN increased its lead to 22 in the fourth quarter.

“They were hitting their shots in the first quarter and had us on our heels,” Perkins said. “We played them pretty evenly for the rest of the half, but the third quarter was the difference. We just weren’t able to knock down shots and the game started to get away from
