LEMONT – As part of Lemont’s Heritage Fest July 11, patrons once again will have a chance to win a 50-inch television, courtesy of Century 21 Affiliated in Lemont.

Those who want to enter the free raffle can fill out a sheet at the Century 21 booth. The winner will be announced later in the day.

Terry and Becky Smith of Lemont were the winners last year.

Becky Smith said the family had not had a television for about four years until they won the raffle.

She said Century 21 Affiliated Realtor Maryann Rogers convinced her to fill out a raffle sheet without knowing what she was entering to win.

When she received a phone call Dan Farnham file photo - dfarnham@shawmedia.com from Rogers to tell her she had won, she said she was shocked that she won Realtor Maryann Rogers (left) of Century 21 Affiliated in Lemont helped give away a 50inch television at last year’s Heritage Fest to the Smith family, including Becky Smith and and what the prize was. her son Zach Wilkens.

“I never win anything,” she said.

The festival will include rides, games, live music and food.

Lemont Village Trustee Jeanette Virgilio, who chairs the Downtown Development Commission, has been involved with Heritage Fest for most of its existence.

“Heritage Fest has always been more of a local festival people have enjoyed,” she said. “I know, as the town has grown, the festival has grown.”

Village Marketing Coordinator Donna Pecina said the village is trying to add more entertainment options for the festival’s anniversary. She said they started by asking residents what attractions they wanted.

Little Mountain’s ‘Shrek’ a family production SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA LEMONT – For its second big summer musical production, the Little Mountain Community Theatre will present the modern family favorite “Shrek: The Musical.”

Showtimes are 7:30 p.m. July 10 and 11 and 2 p.m. July 12 at the Lemont High School Performing Arts Center, 800 Porter St. Tickets cost $15 for adults and $12 for students and seniors. They can be ordered in advance by visiting www. littlemountaintheatre.org.

This is the second year of existence for the theater group, which performed “The Wizard of Oz” as its inaugural show last summer.

As with many community theater productions, multiple generations of family members make up the nearly 100 people working together to present the show.

For instance, Lemont resident and business owner Jeremie Bacon is a member of the cast with his 11-year-old daughter AnneMarie.

“We’re a family of six and we all have a handful of overlapping interests,” Bacon said in a news release.

“Two of the things AnneMarie and I

Some people from nearby towns joined the production because they know someone from Lemont.

Maura Carr of Darien, who will play one of the lead roles as Princess Fiona, auditioned so she could perform in a

show with her cousin, Margaret Rogers of Lemont.

“I’ve watched Margaret perform on the LHS stage since she was five,” Carr said in the news release. “To finally be up there with her is more fun than I even imagined.”

Mary Beth Pingatore, 71, of Westchester, will perform in her first musical since high school, along with her granddaughters, Kelli and Erin Crispo, 11 and 13, respectively, of Lemont.

According to the release, Pingatore decided to audition for this year’s show after watching Kelli in the theater’s summer musical last year.

“I’ve been taking the girls to plays, and they showed an interest in auditioning for ‘Shrek,’” Pingatore said. “I thought, ‘Why not me, too?’ You’re never too old to try something new!”

Kelli said she is excited to share the stage with her sister and grandmother.

“I’ve been in other productions where my sister and grandma would help me practice,” she said. “I love being in ‘Shrek’ together because it brings us closer. We get to share some of the same feelings and experiences and the most amazing process you will ever go through.”

OPINIONS Q LAST WEEK’S WEB POLL QUESTION: Is Donald Trump a serious candidate for president?

65 PERCENT: No, he’s doing it for publicity 22 PERCENT: Yes, I’d vote for him 10 PERCENT: Yes, but I won’t vote for him 3 PERCENT: I’m undecided

Celebrating freedom and honoring those who make it possible Almost 240 years ago, a small group of brave individuals stood up to their powerful oppressors and declared themselves an independent nation, changing the world forever. This past weekend, we united to celebrate the birth of our great nation and reflect on the people who gave us our freedom. It’s a time to honor our founders and remember that despite our COMMUNITY differences, there will always VOICE be more to bring us together Dan than tear us apart.

Lipinski Back in 1776, the 13 colonies had less in common with each other than they did with their oppressors. It is a tribute to the courageous leadership of our Founding Fathers that they had the vision to see past these differences and to forge a common bond, founded on the principles that “all men are created equal,” and that no government has the authority to restrict the rights of the people to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

These shared values are the essence of our Union. If the signers of the Declaration of Independence were the architects of the nation, the foundations they built for us were made of the strongest stone. Even during our darkest hours, we look back on the document that launched the ship of this republic into the rough seas of the nations of the world, and we take solace in its words.

The celebration of our independence is a celebration of the beliefs we hold together as a nation; it is a celebration of why we are a nation; and it is, above all, a reminder to us all that our country was founded in faith and hope, and in the desire by the good people of the 13 colonies to build a new nation where freedom would reign forever.

One of our great symbols of freedom is the American flag. If you noticed this past weekend that your flag or flags have seen better days because of Illinois weather or are just getting old, my offices in Chicago, Lockport, Oak Lawn and Orland Park will accept worn American flags for proper disposal.

If you’re looking for a replacement flag for special occasions, my office in Washington can help constituents obtain an American flag that’s been flown over the U.S. Capitol. Contact my office toll-free at 866-822-5701 to find out more information. I am happy to provide a flag free of charge if you are a veteran.

Have a great summer, and please remember and pray for all those who make the freedoms we enjoy possible.

POLL QUESTION: Are today’s kids over supervised?

Vote online at mysuburbanlife.com.

OUR VIEW

Sales tax hike would do more harm than good When Toni Preckwinkle took over as president of the Cook County Board in 2010, she had some tough decisions to make.

She’d campaigned and won on a promise to have the Todd Stroger-era county sales tax hike repealed. When it came time to actually figure out how to cope with less income, she made some decisions you don’t often see Democrats making. She led the board to pass tough but necessary cuts to services, laid off county staff and in the process antagonized the public employee unions that would otherwise have been her staunch allies.

With that history behind her, it’s very strange to see Preckwinkle proposing a sales tax hike now. We recognize that the county is in a bind, that the state’s pension crisis has crippled the county’s finances and that the board members are trying to pick from a menu of unappealing options. But increasing the county sales tax would merely amount to piling a local bad decision on top of all the state’s poor moves.

You may have heard this before, but it bears repeating: the sales tax is a regressive tax, meaning it disproportionately affects the poor. This stands in contrast to the federal income tax, which is progressive (meaning the wealthier you are, the higher rate you pay), or a flat tax, where everyone pays a set percentage of their income.

The sales tax is regressive because while someone making $20,000 a year and someone making $200,000 pay the same amount in

sales tax when they both buy the same loaf of bread, that amount is a higher percentage of the poorer resident’s income. Any increase in the existing sales tax will have a much bigger impact on the poor – the very people Preckwinkle hopes to protect by raising the tax – than it will on anyone else.

The second group that stands to suffer if a sales tax goes through would be the local businesses of Cook County, especially those that border areas with lower sales tax rates.

DuPage and Will counties, for instance, have 7.25 percent and 7 percent sales tax rates, respectively, making it worth spending a little more in gas if you’re making a sizable purchase. Go a little further, and you can find a 7 percent sales tax rate in Lake County or Northwest Indiana.

Cook County is currently at 8 percent, probably high enough for some people to already consider the trip. Add another percent, and local car dealerships, corner stores and the like definitely will feel the pinch as shoppers head out of town.

Preckwinkle has stated to multiple news outlets that she’s only proposing a hike because of the state’s failure to enact public pension reform. And there’s no question that the state has made the Cook County Board, along with many other governmental bodies, twist in the wind while it takes its time addressing the topic. But we hope that her push for an income tax hike is just a negotiating tactic, because actually enacting it would do more harm than good.

Every job has benefits

I’m responding to the caller titled “Teachers’ compensation has an impact on pension crisis.” ... I think the thing that’s most important here to say is that if you would like to become a teacher and benefit from those benefits that you say that we receive, then you’re more than welcome to do that. ... I worked in corporate America for over, oh, about 25 years, before I became a teacher. I have a bachelor’s degree, I have a master’s degree and I have continuing education, and my salary compensates me for the type of education that I have in the educational industry. I also don’t get bonuses that people get in corporate America, and I also don’t get a golden parachute if I was to leave an organization in corporate America.

LETTERS Thank you for your help and our dog’s safe return

To the Editor: Last Wednesday, June 24, our old English sheepdog bolted out of the yard when our [pressure washer] backfired.

She was missing for a week. We found her this morning, July 1, despite her being elusive and scared.

Thanks to all the people who called about sightings. They kept our hopes up. Many of you felt bad because you could not entice her or catch her, or you just plain didn’t think she was lost. But because of your phone calls we knew she was alive and kept tracking her down.

Thanks amazing community of Lemont, Lisa, my daughters, Sue Tomala’s family, The Ernst and Pocius family, the students I taught, my neighbors, Lottie, the residents of the senior community and town homes along the canal, people on the quarry paths near KA Steel and the police.

Thanks to God, dog’s guardian angels, St. Francis, St. Anthony and Mary of the Knots.

What a happy ending.

The Sound Off comments regarding teachers in recent weeks have been frustrating to read. In the July 1 edition, the average teacher salary circa 2012 was declared to be $70,000. Teachers have really taken a hit then, because the current average salary in Illinois is $59,000. ... As usual, small, unhappy minds are complaining when some people have more than they do, even when the people they describe really don’t.

Rather than attacking one group, which may or may not have a better salary, doesn’t it make sense to work together to raise everyone’s salaries?

Lemont spends summer prepping for season

By SCOTT SCHMID sschmid@shawmedia.com LEMONT – In his first season at Lemont, Bret Kooi and the Indians football team set the bar exceptionally high by advancing to the Class 6A title game.

That added another chapter to the growing resume of the program, which also finished as the runner-up in 2007 and 2008.

“When you look at the big picture, there have been many great programs and kids, and especially some great coaches, who haven’t been there [to state],” Kooi said. “We count our blessings and hope it is something we get to experience again.”

The Lemont team that has returned to the field this summer is vastly different than the 2014 group that included 15 senior starters. Summer camp practices have allowed Kooi and the coaching staff to gauge players’ progress.

“Camp has been pretty good,” Kooi said. “Without a doubt, it hasn’t been our best but it’s been pretty good. We are playing catch-up a bit offensively but the defense has been pretty solid. And that’s what we thought.”

The main reason the offense is a bit behind is because the unit brings back only a pair of starters in sophomore running back Anthony Martin and senior offensive lineman Casey O’Brien.

“Those are the two primary key guys back,” Kooi said.

“We’ve been a bit up and down there, but when you have new guys it is expected, though you hope it’s not the case. It is our job as coaches to coach them up and it is their job to be coached up and get better. And I think our kids will do that.”

The Indians return much more experience on the other side of the ball, with five starters back in the fold.

“In my opinion, we have a solid nucleus coming back defensively,” Kooi said. “And

Lemont’s Jeff Franklin (left) runs the ball at practice June 23. The Indians have been busy during the summer working on both offense and defense. even some of the guys who might not have been starters last year, they got time. We should be pretty solid on that side of the ball.”

As far as what Kooi hopes to accomplish during the five weeks of summer camp, a main priority is the health of the players.

“No. 1, we want to stay healthy,” he said. “Our kids have done a nice job of learning how to practice smart, as well as the coaches. ... I’m not interested in beating ourselves up. To me a big part of the summer is hitting the weights and getting stronger. We also try to get our packages in and then tweak and adjust those packages depending on what our personnel is.”

Lemont already has taken part in a couple of 7-on-7 events

and there are a few to come, including one at Downers Grove South on July 11 and another at Bolingbrook on July 18.

“Those help develop your passing game,” Kooi said, “and give the kids opportunities to get reps. They let them compete and get better.”

Pocic on awards watch list

Former Lemont offensive lineman and current LSU junior Ethan Pocic was named July 8 as one of the 63 players on the Rimington Trophy watch list.

The award is presented each year to the most outstanding center in NCAA Division I Football Bowl Subdivision.

A year ago, Pocic started three games at center while Zach Konieczka eyes a pass at Lemont football practice June 23. After also playing nine contests at an appearance in the Class 6A state title game last season, Lemont is right guard for the Tigers. working hard this summer in order to get back to state again this fall.
