Breen calls for veto of bill SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LOMBARD – After receiving complaints from residents within his district, state Rep. Peter Breen, R-Lombard, is calling for Gov. Bruce Rauner to veto a measure that would allow utility companies to charge customers in one area of the state for expansion efforts somewhere else. On June 2, Breen called for the veto of Senate Bill 1421, which passed out of the Illinois House on May 28. The bill would allow utility companies such as Illinois American Water to seek permission to charge municipal wastewater customers in one part of the state for the company’s private wastewater expansion efforts in other parts of the state, according to a news
“Folks in DuPage County should not have to pay to expand wastewater services in Peoria.” Peter Breen State representative, R-Lombard
release from Breen’s office. The state representative received several complaints about SB 1421 from residents served by Illinois American Water in his district, which covers parts of Glen Ellyn, Wheaton, Lombard and Lisle, among other communities, the release stated. “Folks in DuPage County should not have to pay to expand wastewater
services in Peoria,” Breen said. “This bill would force residents to pay twice for wastewater services; once for their own municipal services and a second time for private services for people on the other side of the state.” Breen challenged the sponsor of the bill in a debate on the House floor. He said Illinois American has roughly 280,000 water customers but only 30,000 private wastewater customers, arguing the fee shifting in the bill would be detrimental to the vast majority of those water customers, the release stated. Video of the floor debate can be viewed at http://shawurl.com/1xzw. The measure passed the House by 63-50 and now goes to Rauner for his consideration.
D-87 officials reflect on first year of iPad program By MATT LA LUZ mlaluz@shawmedia.com As Glenbard Township High School District 87 finishes the first year of its 1:1 iPad deployment program, officials are considering the success of the program, as well as future goals moving forward. The program required all freshman-level students to rent an iPad from the district or bring one from home. The 12-month iPad rental fee cost students $189, including mandatory insurance. An additional $85 fee covered digital curriculum and applications, with the final cost coming to $274. Director of Instructional Technology Robert Lang, who presented data on the program’s first year to the Board of Education during a May 26 meeting, was enthusiastic about what he saw. “It’s our first attempt at online learning, so it’s exciting the things we learn along the way,” he said. The data Lang presented examined how 2,500 students used the learning management system Schoology in conjunction with their iPads throughout the year. Overall, the application saw 545,863 visits from students, with 52,428 comments posted, 126,654 submissions made and 119,332 files uploaded, according to district documents. “This is a good indication that there is collaboration happening ... It shows us that they’re interacting and using it,” Lang said. The district also tracked application use during nonpeak learning times, such as inclement weather days and winter and spring breaks, in an effort to see if students consistently engage in learning by using the iPad. The data presented showed lower

use during breaks but an uptick during the final days before school started again after time off. This is normal and expected, according to Lang, who is interested in seeing if students are engaged in learning with their mobile devices on off days, with the goal of 24/7 learning in mind. Overall, Lang said the district already is seeing benefits with the program. Math students can record the steps they use to solve a problem, which makes it easier for teachers to see their work. In science, students can hook up an iPad to a microscope to take and label pictures instead of sketching them. In physical education, teachers can spend less time demonstrating weight lifting equipment, instead offering videos on how to use the equipment, which gives the teacher more one-on-one time to help students. Superintendent David Larson agreed the iPad program is beneficial for students and is an obvious learning component. “[There is] actual real, deep learning that can take place because the student can be independent, connect with more students and do more research in ways
that they couldn’t do before,” Larson said. “[Technology] permeates our lives no matter what sector of work you’re in ... so why would you not have students and teachers have access to those tools?” Lang said most students enjoy using the iPad and understand the distinction between social life and school life with regard to using the device. He did say, however, teaching students to self-regulate technology use will be a challenge going forward. This summer, about 190 students will participate in an online self-paced math remediation program monitored by district math teachers. The goal of the program is to support struggling math learners by having them watch videos, do assignments and take quizzes to help them prepare for geometry and chemistry classes. Next year, the iPad program will branch out to include both freshmenand sophomore-level students. By 2017, all district students will have an iPad for instructional use. The school is phasing in the program through different grade levels to stagger teacher training while also making sure curriculum is digitized for each grade, according to Lang. “We’re seeing some growth. I’m confident that we’re doing it right as I look at some other school districts that are giving all students iPads at the same time. And they’re not building as much capacity going forward, mostly because it is an overwhelming task,” Lang said. The next step for the school will be to look at blended learning, in which students would not have to report to the same classroom space five days a week but could spend more time independently studying or in a group outside of class, according to Lang.

All the proceeds benefit the students.” Sarah Richardt, executive director of Lombard Town Centre, said the donation will be used to promote downtown Lombard. “We’ll use it to support and retain businesses, as well as to attract new businesses to our downtown area,” she said. Tickets for the Ale Fest are $40, and Difino expects between 1,500 and 2,000 people at the fest. He encouraged people to buy them early as ticket sales are already up 30 percent from last year. “The event is very popular, and we’re not going to allow more than 2,000 people because we don’t want to overcrowd it,” Difino said. “But we love to bring people to downtown Lombard. The community can come together, enjoy some great beer and support two great causes.”

when Difino wanted to do a fundraiser for the Glenbard East Sports Boosters. Difino said the group hosted a 5K and a concert but wanted to get the community more involved, and got the idea to host an ale fest from O’Brien. “We know we have a beautiful venue, parking is easy and we’re right by the train station,” Difino said. “I can’t think of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon. I’ve learned that there’s a bond between craft beer lovers, and everyone’s a friend.” All the proceeds from the Ale Fest benefit the Glenbard East Sports Boosters and the Lombard Town Centre.

LOMBARD – Paul Kreiner, owner and brewer of Lombard’s Noon Whistle Brewery, can’t wait to debut his lilac syrup-infused Farmhouse Ale at this year’s Lombard Ale Fest. “It’s a lighter beer, and it’s very special,” Kreiner said. “We love bringing different beers to our customers.” Craft beer lovers from all over the Western suburbs will descend on Lilacia Park from 1 to 5 p.m. June 13 for the second annual Ale Fest. Kreiner’s brewery will be one of about 60 breweries and home brewers who will be sampling beer. Bob Difino, event chairman for the Glenbard East Booster Club, which sponsors the event, said each brewery will sample two beers and expects most of them to be lighter-bodied. “The whole craft beer movement is really taking off, and brewers typically have special brews for these types of events,” Difino said. “There will be more summer beers there, all different kinds, but probably fewer stout beers.” Will O’Brien, owner of Flesk Brewing in Lombard, is very excited to be returning to the festival this year. He said he will be featuring two new beers. “We’ll be debuting Moped Traveler, which is a very summery pale ale with a lemony citrus characteristic,” O’Brien said. “And our second beer is called Ghost Relic, and it’s a wonderful, light-bodied IPA.” New this year is the addition of 10 home brewers from the Home Brewers Guild. Difino said the home brewers are “regular folks who just brew for fun at home.” In addition to the home brewers, the fest will hand out awards, which they didn’t do last year. “Guests will vote for their favorite in five categories, including best in show and best home brew,” he said. There also will be a few changes to this year’s entertainment, Difino said. “There will be three bands instead of two,” he said. “Midlothian Scottish Pipe Band will march through this year while Whiskey Creek and the Enablurz

Lombard Town Centre Lombard continues upkeep cancels barbecue event of Terrace View pond project SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA
SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LOMBARD – In a post on its website, Lombard Town Centre announced this year’s LomBar-B-Que and Blues Fest, scheduled Aug. 8, has been canceled. Following discussions with partners, community members, volunteers and businesses, it was determined the event needed more resources than are currently available from Lombard Town Centre, the post stated. Although the event will not be hosted in 2015, it may be revisited in the future as a collaborative effort, according to the post. “We are very grateful for the support of the BBQ community, businesses and volunteers for their excitement for this event,” Lombard Town Centre Executive Director Sarah Richardt said in the post. Town Centre board President Chris Cholewa said the organization is excited to grow downtown into a place where families want to spend time.

LOMBARD – Although the village of Lombard completed the Terrace View Pond Project in fall 2014, its work at the site is not done, according to a village news release. The project involved installing a new pump station on the southwest side of the pond constructing twin relief storm sewers on the north side of the pond, and placing coir fiber logs along the edge of the pond. New native vegetation also was planted along the exposed bank. The purpose of the project was to mitigate the amount of localized flooding north of the pond and to maintain the aesthetics and recreational value of the pond, the release stated. As a condition of the Lombard Park District’s approval to utilize Terrace View Pond for improved stormwater management, the village assumed responsibility for the maintenance of the pond and the perimeter wetland. Lombard is required by the wetlands permit issued by DuPage County to establish a monitoring and maintenance program for a period of three
to five years at the pond because of its classification as a regulatory wetland, according to the release. The village has retained the consulting firm of Baxter and Woodman to oversee the yearly inspections and reporting requirements imposed by the permit. In an effort to improve the water surface and vegetated perimeter of the pond, Lombard also has retained the services of Rollins Aquatic Solutions to perform specialized aquatic plant management to control plant growth. The village awarded a contract to ENCAP Incorporated for the vegetation management of the pond perimeter. This month, ENCAP and village Forestry Division staff will begin to remove undesirable woody species, the release stated. During the late spring through early fall, ENCAP and Public Works will do three spot mowings and applications of herbicides to remove invasive and objectionable species of plants. In the late fall, the company and village will perform a prescribed controlled burn. For more information, call the Public Works Department at 630-620-5740.

DERMATOLOGY UPDATE Presented by
Todd T. Davis, M.D. Board Certified Dermatologist
HARDENING OF THE SKIN The chronic connective tissue disease known as “scleroderma” is derived from the two Greek words “sclero”, meaning hard, and “derma”, meaning skin. Generally classified as an autoimmune rheumatic disease, scleroderma is not contagious, infectious, cancerous, or malignant. Research thus far only indicates that the disease is not necessarily genetic (although there is a susceptibility gene) and that it involves an overproduction of collagen. In some cases, the disease affects only the skin, but it also can involve important structures such as blood vessels, internal organs, and the digestive tract. Women are affected more commonly than men, and the disease usually occurs between ages 30 and 50. A variety of treatments are available for

Underpass connects downtown, improves Metra station safety By LEE V. GAINES editorial@mysuburbanlife.com LOMBARD – Lombard’s new Metra pedestrian underpass, which has been under construction for the past year, opened this week. But the $9.7 million project is not yet finished, said the village’s director of public works, Carl Goldsmith. June 2 marked “the date of substantial completion,” meaning the pedestrian tunnel is complete and open to commuters, but access to areas still under construction is limited, Goldsmith said. As of 9 a.m. June 3, the at-grade pedestrian crossing along the railroad tracks was removed. The remaining work on the project involves the completion of the roof, concrete platform surfaces and the installation of additional LED lighting in the tunnel and security cameras at the Lombard Metra station at 20 S. Main St. Some decorative elements also will be added in the coming weeks, Goldsmith said. Final completion is expected about Aug. 1.
The initial timeline for the project intended for the substantial completion mark to be hit by Feb. 27. But an extremely frigid February resulted in weather-related construction delays, in addition to some time lost because of the relocation of utilities, Goldsmith said. “I think people were generally pleased to see that the work is at least to the point where they can utilize the improvement,” said Goldsmith, who was at the station early June 3. He said temporary signage will help guide commuters to where they need to go while the finishing touches on the project are completed. Metra funded the vast majority of the project, Goldsmith said, and as far as he knows, it has remained on budget. The village pitched in about $300,000 for aesthetic upgrades, including bronze medallions that feature Lombard-themed designs and an anti-graffiti coating within the tunnel, among other improvements, he said. Village funds also paid for the security cameras, Goldsmith said. While no one looks forward to con-
struction, he said, the pedestrian tunnel will offer safer access to the station for commuters and also will provide better connectivity between Lombard’s downtown and its civic and historical areas. Before construction began, Lombard Town Centre Executive Director Sarah Richardt said some businesses in the area were concerned the construction process may negatively impact their bottom lines. But those fears never actually materialized into a real issue, she said. “We’ve been pleasantly surprised on how little negative impact the construction has had on the local businesses,” Richardt said. She added the pedestrian underpass “already looks fabulous” despite the work still left to be done. Richardt, like Goldsmith, also beBill Ackerman - backerman@shawmedia.com lieves the tunnel will provide better While the pedestrian underpass at the connectivity within the community. “I think the railroad is that barrier, Lombard Metra station is open and the atand mentally people are like, ‘I don’t grade crossing is closed, work continues

Be wary, deep education cuts might never heal COMMUNITY VOICE David Larson While our lawmakers scheme a property tax freeze, pension cost shift to local school districts and reduced General State Aid to school districts, it’s paramount they be creative and divergent in their thinking. Ralph Martire, executive director of the Chicago-based Center for Tax and Budget Accountability, outlines a path for fair revenue enhancements. They include: • Consider marginally increasing the personal income tax rate from the current 3.75 to 4.25. This would be similar to the rates in other states. • Expand the sales tax to include consumer services. This would be fair and consistent across sectors. • Reamortize the pension debt from 30 to 43 years. This would provide immediate relief. • Begin taxing retirement income on a graduated scale. Again, this would be consistent with other states. As any smart businessperson knows, arriving at a balanced budget through only cuts will harm your enterprise. Again, a growing and thriving modern economy will need a balance of restructuring and investing. Let’s hope our lawmakers realize this.
David Larson is the superintendent of Glenbard Township High School District 87.

Heroin’s deadly reign affects us all It’s easy to think of heroin addiction as something that happens to other people, other families. Especially if you and your children have made it through the teen years and early adulthood without coming under the thumb of addiction. But even if no one in your immediate circle had even tried heroin, it still affects you in ways that are almost impossible to see. Maybe your favorite cashier at the grocery store just isn’t there one day, and you never know why. Maybe a local business you frequent shuts down out of the blue. Maybe a friend or a colleague becomes distant for no apparent reason, no longer hosts gatherings, no longer talks with pride about what the kids are doing. Cook and DuPage counties have seen a decline in heroin-related deaths thanks to the use of Narcan to combat overdoses. From 46 deaths in 2013 to 33 last year, DuPage County is on track for about 27 this year. Cook County’s drop was less significant, from 275 in 2013 to 283 in 2014. Regardless, if those declines are because of the success of Narcan, then it means the
Suburban Life Media Editorial Board Laura Burke, Dave Lemery, Matt Hendrickson, Anna Schier, Alex Soulier, Mary Beth Versaci
VIEWS Dave Lemery root problem – the use of heroin – may not have subsided at all. And there are many terrible outcomes for a heroin addict other than death. If your child is still in high school, but you know he or she is “one of the good kids” and would never use any kind of drugs, consider this: Every student in every high school knows who the “bad kids” are. If your model student has a weak moment, how hard would it be to get a hold of something truly devastating? I’m not looking to incite fear or convince every parent that their child is a secret dope fiend. Far from it. The miracle is that most teens, knowing full well how they could get their hands on some truly toxic substances, choose not to do so at a time in their life when they’ve got all kinds of pressures pushing them to make bad decisions. These are just a few of the obvious ways heroin abuse continues to affect all of us.
And it’s going to continue to do so for a long time. That’s why Suburban Life has launched a new home online to collect our coverage of the heroin crisis in the suburbs. Visit and bookmark www. mysuburbanlife.com/heroin to keep informed about what’s going on across the Chicago area. You’ll find stories about people who’ve been arrested, about families trying to make sense of lost loved ones, about government officials and police departments trying to find a way to make headway against this scourge. What we hope most is that as time goes by, you’ll find less and less news posted to the page as the heroin crisis recedes. But we know that isn’t going to happen anytime soon. In the meantime, we’ll continue to talk about the folks who are grappling with this issue. Because the sooner we accept that this is a problem that we all share, the sooner we’ll find solutions.

Want to know how legislators get through the gridlock of state budget woes and policy reform proposals? Visit a local meat factory and watch sausage being made. Yes, the legislative process is a grinding, messy, mysterious and an unbecoming process. Our elected leaders are in closed-door meetings debating, negotiating, compromising and again figuring out how to patch a multibillion-dollar budget hole for next fiscal year. For public education interests, through the years, our elected officials have been kicking the can down the road by diverting revenue that should have funded the normal cost of retirement benefits to fund other interests and projects. The decades of mismanagement has resulted in many school districts finding themselves in a position where they must borrow annually to meet expenses. In reflecting on our state’s taxing history, did Illinois, for decades, have an imbalance between revenue growth and services cost growth? Was our tax policy, which was heavy on property taxes but light on business, service and income taxes, really suitable for a modern economy? Review other state taxing structures that are thriving economically and you will observe a balance of reductions and revenue enhancements. Minnesota, for example, is enjoying a billion-dollar surplus because of its disciplined, sustained investment in education and key social services.

Bensenville kicks off summer with a splash! SPONSORED BY
By Gina Kraman The Bensenville Park District welcomes the public to its summer season on Friday, June 5, from 5-10 p.m. with a free Water Park and Splash Pad celebration, complete with a deejay, dunk tank, games, prizes, and a movie. Eager to showcase its Water Park and Splash Pad, located at 1100 W. Wood St., the Bensenville Park District has planned five hours of events, concluding with a showing of the movie “Frozen” on the grounds in the Water Park. Plans include Water Park activities from 5-8 p.m., featuring games and a fire truck. Guests may join the sand castle contest from 5-5:45 p.m., then watch a lifeguard safety demonstration from 6-6:30 p.m. Relay races are from 6:30-7 p.m., while Ronald McDonald will be available from 6:30-7:30 p.m. to entertain guests. Hula hoop and limbo contests will run from 7-8 p.m. At dusk, the water areas will be closed, and “Frozen” will be shown on the grassy hill area.
The Bensenville Park District’s new Splash Pad is a 2,527-square-foot spray park play area containing attractions that flow, mist, and propel water. This area complements the 12-18” deep children’s interactive water play area. Older guests enjoy the Water Park’s 155-foot water slide and “plunge pool,” two additional slides, a diving board, and a 12-1/2-foot dive well. Zero-depth entry into the spacious pool area accommodates young swimmers, while designated areas for lap swimming provide multiple fitness opportunities. For non-swimmers, the Water Park offers large shaded areas and a sun deck furnished with more than 100 chaise lounges and chairs. Large grassy areas for sunning overlook the Water Park. A full-service concession area features summertime favorites. Wet and dry sand play areas, a playground, and beach volleyball are available.

LOMBARD – The 2015-16 school year will bring some new faces to Trinity Lutheran School in Lombard, according to a school news release. Principal Kenneth Krohse is retiring after serving as head administrator at the school since September 1983. His wife, Marlene, who has been a kindergarten teacher at the school, also is retiring. Together, the Krohses have been teaching on the Trinity faculty for 38 years, having both come to the Lombard school in 1977. The shoes of this couple will soon be filled by another pair of teaching spouses. On June 21, Trinity Lutheran Church, which operates the preschool through eighth-grade school, will install Andrew DeWitt as principal and seventh- and eighth-grade teacher and Leann DeWitt as kindergarten teacher. The DeWitts, both graduates of Concordia University Chicago, come to Lombard from St. Paul Lutheran School in Rochelle. Another big change at Trinity is the stepping back of preschool Director Arlene Solyom, who will continue working in the early childhood program as needed but will be replaced in her full-time post by her granddaughter and Trinity alumna Rachel Solyom. The younger Solyom, who received her early childhood education degree from Concordia University Chicago, was a part-time member of the preschool faculty this past year and previously served at Grace Lutheran School in River Forest and Shining Stars Preschool in Elmwood Park. Trinity Lutheran Church also recently welcomed a new associate pastor, the Rev. Steven E. Wagner, to serve alongside senior pastor the Rev. Patrick J. Boomhower, who has been at the Lombard congregation since 2008. Originally from Texas and having most recently worked with two Lutheran congregations in South Dakota, Wagner has relocated to Lombard, which will now be home to his wife, Barbara, and son, Steven. The couple also has two grown children, Brian and Megan. Trinity Lutheran School still is accepting registrations for the 2015-16 school year for children ages 3 to those entering eighth grade. Details are available by calling the school office at 630-627-5601 or emailing schoolinfo@ trinitylombard.org.

THE PILL LINKED TO GLAUCOMA It is very important that anyone at high risk for glaucoma be screened for the disease. This group includes African-Americans, those with a family history of glaucoma, those with a history of increased eye pressure or existing visual field defects, as well as users of oral contraceptives. Research indicates that women who have taken oral contraceptives for three or more years are twice as likely to suffer from glaucoma. The study analyzed data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES), which included 3,406 female participants aged 40 years or older from across the United States. While it does not pinpoint a causative factor, it does suggest that all women at risk undergo glaucoma screening. The optical boutique at SKOWRON EYE CARE is available to accommodate all of your eyewear needs. We offer the latest in frame styles and lens technology at competitive prices and can provide the thinnest, lightest, most smudge and scratch resistant lenses to fit almost any style frame you desire. We’re invested in the technology to make exam findings easier and more accurate from toddlers to seniors. At Skowron Eye Care, our mission is your vision. P.S.

Glen Ellyn should nix the Giesche Shoes development I share the concerns expressed by [Glen Ellyn] Village Trustees and residents over the proposed Opus Group redevelopment of the Giesche Shoes property and the adjoining village parking lot, which was given to Opus as an incentive. This massive, multiuse redevelopment of the village gateway includes a five-story commercial and residential building and an adjacent 339-space parking deck. The height would range from 53 to 61 feet, which makes the building actually six stories using the 10-feet-per-story measure employed by many cities. The building will dwarf the adjoining properties and come right up to the sidewalk on Main Street. A six-story building on the hill overlooking historic Main Street should not be allowed to happen.

Health, energy benefits Everyone’s got a roof, but most of us don’t take advantage of it. “In a land of concrete and steel, a roof garden is the perfect place to get away from the hustle and bustle of city life,” said home and garden designer Amber Freda, owner of Amber Freda Home & Garden Design in New York.
said Freda. “A green roof may or may not contain furniture, isn’t necessarily meant for lounging or entertaining, and often has sparse, meadow-like plantings that are able to survive with minimal irrigation.” GREEN ROOF GARDENS HAVE SEVERAL BENEFITS The most important consideration GREEN ROOF GARDENS HAVE SEVERAL BENEFITS for a green roof is “load,” Berges said.

reen roof gardens are transforming urban areas, bringing nature to new heights. The trend is catching on with not only commercial builders but homeowners in suburban areas, too. Green roof gardens are nothing new — basically the ancient hanging gardens of Babylon were green roof gardens – but now such gardens have expanded beyond rooftops with planters and al fresco dining areas, said Gaelle Berges, product and development manager for Vegetal i.D., a European green roof leader since 1992, which branched out to North America in 2010. “There’s a growing market in the United States for green roofs. More and more private residential buildings” are adding or being built with green roofs, Berges said.

Red Stars Remain Unbeaten with 0-0 Draw in Seattle Seattle, Wash. – The NWSL-leading Chicago Red Stars stayed undefeated in their first seven matches of the season courtesy of a hard-fought scoreless draw with home side and Shield holders Seattle Reign FC. Head Coach Rory Dames’ squad earned the valuable point behind disciplined team defending and a strong performance by netminder Michele Dalton, whose seven saves saw the 26-year-old earn her second shutout of the 2015 campaign. Seattle controlled possession early on and created the first promising chance in the 13th minute. Reigning league MVP Kim Little sprinted down to the byline on the left side and set up Danielle Foxhoven, whose mishit effort from inside the box found fellow attacker Merritt Mathias. The Alabama native failed to make full contact on the ball, her shot attempt being comfortably stopped by Dalton. Chicago’s Vanessa DiBernardo released a dangerous drive at the other end of the field in the 20th minute, a wicked deflection forcing goalkeeper Haley Kopmeyer to leave her feet for a spectacular parry. Red Stars defender Michelle Lomnicki had her side’s best chance of the day on the ensuing DiBernardo corner from the right, as she headed the ball goalward with Kopmeyer out of the net, only to see it dramatically headed off the line by Reign FC’s Elli Reed. The home side had a pair of attempts during the remainder of the opening period, forcing solid saves from Dalton, who did well to avoid giving up rebounds.
After the break, both teams’ promising attacking efforts were well defended, as the fans had to wait until the 65th minute for another close look. Red Stars midfielder Danielle Colaprico swung in a corner kick from the left and Lomnicki got her head on the ball once more, this time seeing her close-range effort bounce just wide of the left post. Seattle nearly punished the visitors for the missed opportunity eleven minutes later, Mathias firing a rocket off the top the crossbar from a central position just outside the box. The home side would follow up with two more promising looks. First substitute Rachel Corsie’s dangerous 82nd-minute cross from the right flank was redirected just wide of the goal by the foot of a Chicago player, then forward Beverly Yanez beat netminder Dalton to the ball on the ensuing corner, just to see her header land on top of the unguarded frame. It was the final noteworthy opportunity of the match, as the Red Stars successfully fended off some furious Reign FC attacking in the final stages to hold on for a crucial point away from home. The NWSL-leading Chicago Red Stars look to remain unbeaten through eight regular season games when they travel to take on Western New York Flash on June 6. The club’s next home match is on June 20 against second-place Washington Spirit.

LEFT: A juicy patty is at the heart of the Make Shroom for Me Burger, a delicious item taken up a notch by a side of sweet potato fries. During my next visit, I decided I wanted to put my red meat cravings on the backseat for the sake of vegetarian readers, and ordered the veggie burger topped with avocado and tomato. Back Alley got points straight away for the clearly house-made patty instead of
the frozen black bean affair found in many places. It had a whole lot of mildly spicy complexity to it, but could have used more sear. I decided to go with the classic onion rings as my side this go-round, and, predictably, they were battered perfectly. Each had a uniform
amount of tasty breading with a nice crunch and plenty of welcome onion flavor. I knew I needed to sample one of the restaurant’s handspun shakes to truly tell the full story. The Nutella version was intensely chocolate and dangerously drinkable as opposed to milk shakes the

A lot of places do a decent burger, and a lot try to push the envelope of what a burger can be. Back Alley definitely does so with success, along with a friendly waitstaff quick to offer a suggestion, and a welcoming interior with rockand-roll appeal. If you’re going to put your burger fate in the hands of anyone, the people at Back Alley should be near the top of the list.

LA GRANGE – Grilling season is here, but consider leaving the burger production to the pros at Back Alley Burger in La Grange. The restaurant is the creation of veteran restaurateurs Mary and Christopher Spagnola of Western Springs, who first met at the California Culinary Academy in San Francisco. Their training is a big part of what sets Back Alley Burger apart, and their concept has expanded to a second location in Elmhurst. The pair’s hard-rocking La Grange restaurant has a big but focused menu offering a number of different burgers featuring grass-fed and never frozen beef, plus sandwiches, chili, nitrate-free hot dogs, salads, shakes, beer and wine, all served alongside street art decor and classic rock tunes. Inventive burger toppings and a theme alone do not a quality restaurant make, but, luckily, Back Alley Burger delivers. Though my imagination was caught by the Most Insane-est Hottest Burger Ever-est, filled with such ingredients as habanero jam, fried jalapeños, Thai chili cream cheese and something called Trinidad scorpion sauce, I decided to go with the less threatening Make Shroom for Me Burger. What came out was truly delicious. The patty itself was incredibly juicy without being greasy, and the pretzel bun it came on gave just enough structure to make sure the second half of the burger wasn’t soggy. Though it could have used a bit more of the namesake mushrooms, the grilled onions on top added an appreciated bite to the sandwich. A surprise was the caliber of the sweet potato fries. So many restaurants make a tremendous burger, but serve a pile of over-salted greasy fries alongside it. These were some of the best I’ve ever had. The thin fries had an amazing crispness to them that still had a mind-boggling amount of creamy sweet potato in the middle.

Rams earn respect despite defeat By DAVE OWEN editorial@mysuburbanlife.com OSWEGO – A 25-18, 25-18 loss against Glenbard West in a boys volleyball sectional final June 2 at Oswego ended Glenbard East’s season but brought added respect for the Rams. “Glenbard East is probably the best defensive team in the state,” Glenbard West coach Christine Giunta-Mayer said. “You think the ball’s going down, but it’s coming back up. You better be ready to play it again. “They’re a phenomenal team, and [Marci Maier] is an outstanding coach. That could have been the state finals.” The Rams (33-6) were close midway through each game but were hit with big runs at similar times. Five straight points in Game 1 put the Hilltoppers up 19-12, then a 6-0 run in Game 2 broke open what was a 14-13 Glenbard West lead. “One thing Glenbard West does really well is put up a big block,” Rams’ senior Adam Eboli said. “That threw us out of system a little. They’re a great team all around, but we battled with them.” Eboli led the Rams with 10 kills while Nick Symonds had a strong all-around match (seven kills, 10 digs). “Last year, we went out in regionals,” Symonds said. “To make it to the sectional championship is awesome. It was a fun season, something I’ve never experienced.” One familiar experience ended for Symonds on Tuesday: Playing with his brother, Ben, the Rams’ standout libero (13 digs against the Hilltop-

University. “We played on the same volleyball team for like six years and every other team for the past 12 or 15 years,” Nick Symonds said. “It’s weird that we’re leaving.” Setter Andrew Hurlburt (22 assists), Tyler Greene (six
kills) and Ben Cartwright (six digs) were other leaders June 2. The Rams matched the second-best win total in program history. “This is personally one of the best seasons I’ve ever had, and one of the best Glenbard East has seen,” Eboli said. “To get 33 wins, win a conference championship and a regional
... I can’t ask to be on a better team of guys. “I played basketball for three years and also golf, but volleyball ... this program is amazing. I looked forward to going into practice every day.” Glenbard West had allowed more than 15 points in a game to an opponent just once in three previous postseason matches,
but the Rams achieved the feat twice June 2. “I thought we played good defense,” Maier said. “But there were quite a few things we didn’t execute as well as I would liked consistently through the match. “Obviously we had a great season, but it’s not the way we wanted to end it.”
“This is personally one of the best seasons I’ve ever had and one of the best Glenbard East has seen.” Adam Eboli Glenbard East senior

BOYS BASKETBALL
SCHAUMBURG – For four years, this senior class for Willowbrook softball racked up impressive stats, accolades and most importantly, wins. However, the team wasn’t quite able to get over the hump and win a regional title. For the second year in a row, the Warriors lost in a regional final, this time it was an 8-4 defeat June 1 against top sectional seed Schaumburg. Willowbrook’s seniors didn’t just lead the team, they were nearly the entire team. There were 12 seniors out of the 15 players on the roster, including four-year varsity players Sam Schmidt, Alyssa Ressinger and Delaney Pelsor. “As a senior class, they’ve won 84 games together,” coach Rachel Karos said. “They’ve done a lot. They’ve won second place in conference a couple years in a row.” Schmidt had an especially remarkable high school career. The shortstop entered the playoffs with a .509 career batting average and went 3 for 6 with two RBIs, two runs and two walks in Willowbrook’s two playoff games. She even ended with a home run in her final at-bat, when Willowbrook trailed 8-2 down to their final out in the regional final. She finished with 44 home runs, 192 RBIs and 179 runs scored in four years. The Northern Illinois recruit played through a lingering shoulder injury suffered during basketball season but still performed at her normal level. “She’s been playing through some little aches and stuff,” Karos said. “Basically this whole year she’s been game by game. I think a lot of times she’s been doing it just because she
