Antioch fire chief resigns

He takes a job with smaller dept. closer to his home

Zoe Ellis, 2-1/2, of Johnsburg samples a creme-filled cupcake sold by one of the vendors during the It’s Thursday concert held at the Brook Bandshell, 900 Skidmore Dr., Antioch, on Thursday. Zoe was among the many area residents who enjoyed the music of the country group Hillbilly Rockstarz. The final concert of the year takes place this Thursday with the return of Melloncamp. The group’s original July 21 appearance was cancelled when a thunderstorm hit the area just before showtime.

Antioch Fire Chief John Nixon has taken a job as chief for the smaller community of Fox River and Countryside Fire Rescue District in St. Charles in Kane County. Matt Tabar, First Fire Protection District 1 board member said, “This is a smaller district and it is closer to Chief Nixon’s home in Algonquin.” Nixon informed Village of Antioch officials and fire protection district board last week of the move. His last day will be Sept. 2. Nixon has served as Antioch fire chief for more than six years. His new district has two fire stations that are each staffed 24/7 by four firefighter/paramedics. Tabar said fire district board met in closed ses-

sion to discuss replacement methods and a possible interim fire chief. individuals “Several have expressed interest in the position,” Tabar said. The district board met with the Antioch Village Board in a closed session after the Village Board’s regular meeting on Aug. 8. “This is the first time that both boards have worked directly with each other,” Tabar said. “We will develop a joint plan as we move forward.” Antioch Mayor Larry Hanson said, “This was unexpected and the village and fire district will work together to maximize the talent we have, develop a short-term solution that will be in place while we create a process to find a long-term solution.” “We are a team,” he said.

Local Yacht Club has a proud history Heyday is past, but club is still going strong

By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT

A bit of frosting with her concert

JUDE KAIDER Hi-Liter

In the late 1800s, visions of boats sailing across the lakes of the Chain O’ Lakes, with their white sails billowing, were a common sight. The speed of the boats was dependent on both the strength and the direction of the winds and the skill of the sailor manipulating the sails. Sailors were kindred spirits so it was not surprising that many of these groups, often weekend sailors, who came to their summer homes on the chain, would form sailing or yacht clubs. These clubs became centers of sailing competition and social activities. One of the very active Yacht Clubs was the Pistakee Yacht Club founded in 1897 by a group of Pistakee residents headed by Henry L. Hertz. The Hertz home located on a section of Pistakee Lake known as Pistakee Bay became the center of yachting activities including races. When formally incorporated in 1899, 86 members officially joined paying a $5 initiation fee and $5 annual

dues. Since the majority of members were officials of Cook County, it is not surprising that winter membership and director’s meetings were held in Chicago usually at the Union or LaSalle Hotels. A clubhouse became the next item on the yacht club’s agenda. On a piece of property – which today is still the home of the Pistakee Yacht Club – owned by Mary P. Hertz wife of Henry, a clubhouse was built. It was used as a social gathering place in the summer including a dance pavilion where members and their spouses would gather after a day on the water. In the winter, it stored members’ sailboats. Fundraisers such as dances and men’s smokers, popular in the early 1900s, helped pay off the club’s debt. In spite of fundraising efforts the club still owed the Hertz family for the purchase of the land. A Pistakee County Fair was held on Aug. 24, 1910, on the Yacht Club’s grounds to raise the funds needed. It in-

The time is now to help

Family struggles after father’s heart surgery Dear W.C., My daughter, son-in-law and grandchildren are in desperate need of your help. My son-in-law recently had heart surgery and has been unable to return to work after several complications. His health insurance has a very high deductible and co-pays that they will be struggling to pay their portion of. His doctors think it will be several months before he can safely return to work. His unemployment is not nearly as much as he was earning before. I know they are struggling much more than my daughter is telling me because she does not want me to worry. Last time I stopped by their house they had hardly any food in the kitchen and they were not running their air-conditioning, even though it was very hot outside. I wish I could help them but I am barely getting by on my Social Security. Please help them as they are very hard working good people. Dear readers, We receive letters each week from hard-working, good people – people struggling because of their health, senior citizens, our fellow Americans with mental and physical challenges and women with children. It is always hard to choose who is the most deserving or most in need. We do our best to investigate each situation to ensure our assistance is given to those in the most desperate need first.

the husband. He filled me in on some more details of his valve replacement surgery and the delay in his recovery. His job was physically demanding so he would need more time to recover before returning to work. I talked to him about the importance of a healthy diet, and the man agreed. He knew the diet they were consuming was not helpful to his heart condition, but it was all they could afford. The husband told me how his wife had gone to the food pantry a few times and was happy with what they brought home but the fresh foods did not last all month. The husband looked down at his work-worn hands and said, “These hands have always worked so hard to take care of my family. Now they are useless. I have put my family in this position because of my health. I don’t know how to correct this until I can at least return to work. The doctor said that could be another month at least. My wife is already working so hard taking care of me and now she is getting a job waitressing at night to help too. I feel like such a burden.” I watched as those work-worn hands wiped tears of frustration and shame from his eyes. When the wife returned I saw the husband quickly hide his tear-filled eyes. As I looked over their bank statements, noting the lower income over the past few months compared to in the past, the wife again tried to make the husband more comfortable. I saw the large medical bills that they would be responsible for a portion because of their high deductible health insurance plan. The husband and wife both said they regretted having chosen that plan to save money each month on their premiums. At the time they picked the plan for their family, they thought they all were healthy and young enough to not worry too

much about major surgeries or illness. It is a gamble many people take each year when they choose their health insurance plans. I looked through their household bills and noted their utilities were all delinquent. I also noted the car repairs I seem to find throwing off everyone’s budgets these days. The combination of serious health problems, car repairs and lowered income can quickly put any family in a terrible position financially. I knew they needed our help to turn their situation from one of fear and poverty to once again being able to support themselves financially. I also knew this assistance would help the husband recover quicker as we removed the constant financial stress he was living with and they were able to eat healthier as well. I laid out a plan to help this family get on their feet once more. The wife said she would continue to work as long as was needed to help her family. We would bring their utilities up to date and pay a month into the future to provide them with a financial cushion. We also provided some much-needed fresh produce and healthy foods to help with the husband’s recovery. Their car was repaired completely rather than the small fixes they had been doing to get by. They owned the modest home and their mortgage payments were more reasonable than paying rent elsewhere. We brought their payment up to date and a month ahead as well. All this assistance you provided was what they needed to get by until the husband could return to fulltime work once more. After going over this plan with the husband and wife, I could see they both were hiding tears. We also noticed three older children all watching us from the doorway to the kitchen. They all had smiles on their faces and ran into the room to hug their mother and father. The oldest boy said, “Mom and Dad, did you think you were keeping this secret from us? Do you think we did not notice when you ate less than us and turned off all the lights and air-conditioning? We are not little children anymore. We’ve seen The Time Is Now to Help talk at our school and even help other people at our school. We never thought they would

be helping us one day.” The woman hugged her son and said, “We never thought we would need help either, but thank God they are here to help us. We will not keep this from you any longer.” We all were in tears now. After many hugs of gratitude, I was on my way to begin their assistance. After several weeks of our support this family was able to move on unaided. The father was recovering much quicker without the constant financial stress and shame wearing him down. He even made a commitment to exercise regularly and follow a heart health-diet. This diet was made much easier thanks to all of you. Their car was reliable and safe. Their utilities were not in danger of disconnection. Thanks to all of you this family was able to recover completely from this medical and financial disaster.

Slices of life It’s over. The wedding. My daughter and her new husband tied the knot last Saturday in a whirlwind weekend of near perfection. The loving couple has been preparing for this for over a year. They were kind enough to allow me to enjoy an active role in the process. I am a planner by nature; my daughter inherited the planning gene. An upcoming wedding is pretty much the epitome of joy for planful persons like us. We dove into the process with gung ho glee. This daughter-mother duo had to-do lists. And lists of our lists. And sometimes lists

of the secondary lists, or lists of each other’s lists. We even learned to take photos of our lists so we wouldn’t have to worry about the unlikely (but horrifying) possibility of misplacing or losing one. There were spreadsheets of invitations sent, wedding registry items, meal choices and anything else we thought

might fit on a spreadsheet. We created the décor. Chose napkin colors. Designed programs and invites. Perused the web looking for dresses and cake flavors. Secured something old, new, borrowed and even blue. We had meetings with florists, musicians, the pastor and other nuptial aficionados. We scheduled dates for showers and bridal parties and myriad other wedding-related events. It consumed our days for months; each one was a 24hour planning opportunity and we were in our glory. We welcomed our roles as wedding plan warriors.

No job, no detail was too big or too small. We took on daunting tasks and embraced the insignificant. From tulle and flowers at the church to cupcakes in our freezer, we had it covered from veil to bustle to garter. It occupied our time and creative energy and became a priority over other regular mundane and menial activities. Weeds overtook the garden. Decluttering the basement could wait. We had important things to do. We had a wedding to plan! At first, it seemed the date was eons in the future. We counted down: the number

of months until the wedding. Then the weeks. And then we were counting the days. From time to time my husband expressed bewilderment at our vigor and busyness. As we got nearer to the date, our preparedness took on a new level of frenzy and he was even more perplexed. “You’ve been planning for months,” he said. “It seems like you should be done by now.” He didn’t understand the universal law of prepping for a big event: the closer you get, the more the activity level amplifies. Then we drafted him into service. For the two

days prior to the ceremony we kept him busy 24/7 and his steadfast and faithful hands-on experience converted him to the cause. And then the big day came. And went. And now it’s over. And I’m not sure what to do. Oh, there’s a certain amount of residual clean up to occupy me for a short while. But I’m so used to being terribly busy with the notion of planning for the Very Big Day that regular life is going to feel peculiar for a while. My daughter forgot a few things here at home
