Ready for a Dickens of a holiday

Antioch is offering several fun-filled activities for the holiday season.

Dickens Holiday Village

The Holiday Village is now open through Jan. 2. This is a community volunteer art program on the sidewalks of downtown Antioch.

Each Dickens character is handcrafted by community volunteers.

Begin your Dickens experience at the Welcome Center, at 400-1/2 Lake Street inside of the Village Antique Shop. Visitors will learn more about the creation of Dickens Holiday Village and may pick up a walking tour brochure to begin learning more about life during the Dickens era.

Each Saturday beginning Nov. 15, the Chamber will sponsor several activities for visitors, including: street musicians, carolers, Scrooge running away from the kids (If you find him, ask him for some money and listen to him complain), a dog costume contest, a chance to meet Mrs. Charles Dickens, and Dickens radio performers.

Visit DickensHolidayVillage.com for a complete listing of events If you aren’t a Dickens fan, but perhaps enjoy telling people “Bah Humbug!” you might be a candidate for a Scrooge U shirt or mug.

That’s what Saturday’s Chamber event will be

Residents and visitors alike will have a chance to warm up to the holiday season on Saturday by strolling the streets of downtown Antioch while enjoying Champagne and chocolate.

The Champagne and Chocolate Walk runs from noon to 4 p.m.

Check-in is at the Antioch Community Building, 884 Main Street from noon to 1 p.m.

Participants must be 21 years or older. Tickets, at $40 per person, are limited.

Besides Champagne and chocolate, participants will also receive a keepsake champagne flute, a coupon for a complimentary bottle of Champagne, and a bag to carry chocolate goodies. All participants will be entered into a drawing for five Antioch Chamber gift certificates.

Proceeds from the event benefit Santa’s Enchanted Village and other holiday programs in downtown Antioch.

Santa is available to visit with children daily from late November through Dec. 23.

For additional information contact the Antioch Chamber at (847) 395-2233.

Unique Ginger Blossom features merchandise from five continents, 65 countries

By Janet Deaver-Pack CORRESPONDENT

The claim of “Extraordinary Shopping from Five Continents” gives just a hint of what awaits.

A couple of signs, often shared with other businesses, are all the visitor sees on approach from either direction on Highway 173 near Richmond.

There are orchards and small farms in this area. There is also urban sprawl, bedroom communities springing up because of the proximity to Northern Chicago businesses. In the midst of these rests one farm, an island of serenity and pure magic known as Ginger Blossom, where every item tells a story.

One of the first indicators visitors have that this is the correct driveway is sight of the herd of metal cows, horses, and other animals “grazing” and “playing” to the right. On the left a little farther up is a recumbent Buddha, whose gift to all who pass is a sense of tranquility. Parking is sometimes crowded, but well worth a short wait or a trek down the gravel driveway.

Shopping as an adventure Shopping at Ginger Blossom is an experience normally reserved for those journeying to the Orient, uncommon des-

tinations in Mexico, or South America. It offers rare and unique items for every taste, from hand-woven rugs to scarves repurposed from silk saris, to furniture, to decorating accessories, to jewelry, to hand-knitted sweaters from Tibet, to pieces of antique tribal costumes. It’s anyone’s guess what’s in the barns and buildings here. And the inventory constantly changes.

“I love finding treasures on my buying trips,” said Ginger Blossom, a tall blond woman with an athletic figure and a ready smile who shares her name with her business. “And I love shipping them back home for my friends and customers to discover.”

It’s Ginger who knows all the stories behind the unusual items she sells, and she’ll tell those to anyone who inquires.

Ginger has a story herself.

During the mid-1980s, she was a ski instructor in Europe.

When not on the slopes, she enjoyed investigating local shops, discovering finely crafted, unique items. When family difficulties called her back to the Upper Midwest, she had to not only radically change her lifestyle, but also her means of income. She finally decided that there was no better way to earn money than to set up shop with the treasures she loved to uncover in hidden corners and

unexpected niches of souks and exotic markets.

Back on the farm Ginger began her business in the early 1990s on the family farm near Richmond, working part-time. She exhibited her unusual wares at shows in Cedarburg and Evanston, Ill., and handed out hundreds of business cards. Those cards counted for only part of her advertising. Word about her unique items got around. A repeat customer brought a friend.

Another woman liked the shop so much she brought a couple of cousins the next time she visited. The owner of the Wilmot Artisan Market bought a rearing horse to display in front of her shop, and so on.

“Word of mouth is the best advertising,” Ginger said. “I still rely on it.”

In the past, the huge barn to the west of the house has featured Mexican furniture, paintings, and glassware. Pottery and hand-carved wood were parts of that display. There was once an unusual Hindu bride’s chest over five feet tall on wheels, and made of dark wood, where the bride stored her clothes and treasured items until her wedding day. The family then paraded the chest through town to her new home as part of the nuptial festivities.

There were Tibetan tea presses used for mixing that hot beverage with yak butter, a favored drink in the harsh

Himalayan climate. There were gorgeous Oriental silk jackets. Beaded belts dangled from walls and dividers. Silk scarves made from old saris were piled in cabinets standing shoulder to shoulder along the walls.

here and there, including several of Ganesha, the elephantine bestower of good luck.

An intricate Uzbeki dowry headdress sat on its stand, and now graces a shelf in the farmhouse. Baskets of jewelry made in Tibet from turquoise, trade bead amber, horn, and silver invited investigation. Tiny yet wonderfully detailed silver cat face earrings went home with a lover of felines. And in the middle of the barn’s lower level were piles of beautiful, intricately patterned hand-made wool rugs about three feet high.

Ginger used to practice yoga daily atop those rugs.

“But I can’t do that any more,” she said with a smile.

“The piles are too high now.”

Rustic, but refined Part of the farmhouse and the barn hold the majority of Ginger’s current inventory.

The scatter of smaller buildings between those two have allowed the business to expand as necessary.

She shows all her Mexican “Day of the Dead” merchandise in one small structure just south of the barn. Another holds stacks of hand-knitted sweaters made by a woman’s cooperative in Tibet. It’s very practical for a cold Wisconsin winter.

Ginger has also recently opened another building to showcase colorful Bengali kantha stitch quilts, as well as the furniture upholstered with it. In this room are also candleholders, statuary, and large rugs. In between the buildings are fountains, and smaller versions of the metal animals in the field next to the driveway, including pigs, deer, moose, cows, lions, and other wonderful creatures.

“I’d call the style here rustic but refined,” Ginger said.

Most of the furniture fits right in with eclectic décor. “What I look for when I’m buying are pieces made of ecologically sustainable materials that offer good value. They must also be functional as well as decorative.”

Those are some of Ginger’s best selling points. She also does her own buying, shipping, and storage. Because of this, her prices are often more reasonable than those of similar pieces sold in Milwaukee and Chicago. This means busi-

ness comes to the farm as soon as people find out about it.

“I’ve been to 65 countries hunting for treasures,” Ginger said. “I talk to everybody when I get there (to find the best pieces).”

Her reputation is often spread by the craftspeople in certain localities.

They’ve learned that she’s honest, and know the kind of items she looks for. “The Peruvian government flew me there to find things for my shop.” Ginger brought home wonderful textiles from western South America such as embroidered wool from Cuzco and Ayacucho. She is a self-described “textile nerd.”

“I love all the patterns and the feel (of the fabrics),” she said, rubbing thumb and fingers together as though there is a swath of fine silk or rich wool between.

Epic buying trips She makes one extended buying trip per season, normally around January. Ginger has to consider timing seriously because there’s often anywhere from three to nine months required for shipping between purchase and arrival in Richmond. After all, most things she purchases come from at least half a world away.

Ginger has a rare talent in choosing wares for her store. “I always start with the rugs,” she explains. “After that, I ‘see’ other items that go with them.”

Sometimes she shops with one of her good clients in mind, understanding from experience the hues and textures they prefer. There’s nothing like having a personal shopper who travels the world. “But things do change, tastes change.”

And that’s why her varied inventory never stays the same from month to month, or year to year.

One of the items she currently offers is a small relatively plain wooden box with a glass front. Each is slightly larger or smaller than the next.

They’re painted red or yellow, and that has peeled a bit to let the patina of the wood show.

“There’s a story,” Ginger said, pointing to several sitting on the porch of the farmhouse, where she and her staff of around 10 people unpack boxes and display some of the new arrivals until they’re

moved to permanent locations for display. “That’s an Indian clock box. After the British colonized India, they imported clocks. Most Indians had never seen anything like them. When a native bought a clock or received one as a gift, they were so prized that individuals had these little boxes made to protect them. They put the clock in the box and hung it on the wall, a treasure for everyone to see.”

Furniture with flair At present, some of the store’s best-selling items include furniture made from recycled wood, furniture having front panels decorated with old print blocks previously used for making patterns on cloth (sometimes subtle traces of dye remain in the blocks), and driftwood furniture. Recycled silk saris made into scarves patterned with felted wool in gorgeous bright colors are irresistible. Thick gloves with half-fingers and a hood-like covering for the unprotected digits have arrived just in time for cold weather.

From Mexico, Ginger returned with elegant footed goblets having incised patterns made from recycled glass that can preside at the most formal dinner without apology. And there’s much more here. It seems every nook and cranny holds a treasure. Customers come back time after time because it’s impossible to take in everything during one visit.

Time spent here seems more like a vacation than shopping.

Ginger lives on the premises, along with her husband Eric, two Belgian shepherd dogs, which delight in helping her ski in the winter, and several cats. The organic farm next door is run by her brother Gary. The property is protected by an unusual security consortium consisting of statues of Shiva and Buddha, the Belgian shepherds, various lion dog representations snarling from the tops of cabinets, and that ineffable sense of serene magic that infuses Ginger Blossom and makes it so very rare.

The displays are open daily 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at 3016 Highway 173, Richmond. Find out more at www.gingerblossom. com or call (815) 678-4015 with questions.

Doheny’s puts the ‘ahh’ in spas Hot tubs are a great way to warm up Wisconsin’s winter

As the biting winds of November swirl around, there are few things that feel better that a soothing soak in your own hot tub or spa.

Doheny’s, 5102 Green Bay Road, Kenosha, is just the place for everything you’d ever want to know about hot tubs.

But you don’t have to stop at the spa. Doheny’s offers a wide variety of pools and supplies, patio furniture and fitness equipment.

Doheny’s has an extensive spa display of various sizes, colors and shapes available.

Doheny’s carries the top lines including, Marquis, Vita, and Premium Leisure. The staff will walk you through the many spa options and can answer all your questions.

The purchase of a spa must be carefully thought out and researched. Size is important and you need to start with the space that will house the spa. Since spas are available in sizes to seat two to 10 people, looking at how you will use your spa is important for your budget.

ketball player, you may need to special order your spa in a size to comfortably accommodate you.

You also must consider your water control. Do you prefer a powerful, forceful water jet or a softer, gentler one? The number, location and size of jets can influence the water flow into the tub. The staff members, who regularly attend classes to keep current on the products, will share their expertise with you as you work to choose the best combination for you.

Selling the hot tub is only the beginning of Doheny’s relationship with its customers. The staff will guide you through picking the appropriate starter kit and go through the basics of preparing the water for use.

Doheny’s offers support throughout the time that you own the spa. Most spas have a life span of 10-20 years if properly cared for, which is a reason to purchase from a reputable dealer like Doheny’s.

They are happy to hear from customers and are willing to help them solve any problems that may arise. They also offer a unique wet test and demo

A cultural gem Kenosha’s Civil War museum offers 360 degrees of history

By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT

One of the cultural gems of the City of Kenosha is no doubt the Kenosha Civil War Museum. It’s a great place to bring the family for a day of fun and learning about this unique and divisive time in our American History.

A nation divided In 1860, less than 100 years after the adoption of the Declaration of Independence, the United States of America was in turmoil.

Slavery became a dividing issue between the southern states who depended on slave labor to run their elaborate tobacco plantations, and the northern states who were predominately against slavery.

That same year, Abraham Lincoln was elected President of the United States, the first Republican to be so and is quoted as saying “Government cannot endure permanently half slave, half free.”

Prior to his being sworn in as president, South Carolina seceded from the Union.

They were quickly followed by the states of Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, and Texas.

When Lincoln was sworn in as the 16th President in March 1861, The Confederate States of America had already been formed with Jefferson Davis, a West Point graduate as president. One month after Lincoln took office, Gen. Beauregard, head of the confederate forces, fired 50 cannons on Fort Sumter. With 3,000 shells damaging the fort, The Confederate flag was flying within two days.

Through numerous battles, the war continued as Lincoln called for more men, as many as 500,000, which was supported by Congress.

Although slavery was an issue between the north and south, the war itself was

considered to be Lincoln’s attempt to preserve the nation. In reality, the issue of slavery did not become a major issue of the war until 1863.

On Jan. 1, 1863, Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation freeing all slaves in states that had seceded from the Union and encouraged the enlisting of black soldiers in the Union Army. At this point the war to preserve the union became a struggle for the end of slavery, although Lincoln only proposed to end slavery in confederate territories.

The war continued with many more battles, many of which were won by the Confederacy. General Ulysses S. Grant began his final assault on Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia. Grant’s forces overcame Lee at Petersburg and moved on to capture the Confederate capital, Richmond, to raise the American flag.

Lincoln was sworn in for his second term and saw the end of the conflict, but unfortunately was assassinated before he could see the fruition of his dream – the nation reunited.

Visiting the museum If you have visited Civil War museums in other areas of the country, I am sure you learned a lot about the

history of the Civil War, but a visit to the Kenosha Civil War Museum will be an experience unlike any other museum visit that you have enjoyed, for this museum not only looks at the war as a national war, but focuses on the contributions the residents of the Midwest provided for our soldiers.

In a recent interview, Deputy Director Peggy Gregorski shared the many unique exhibits that set the Kenosha Civil War Museum apart from other museums.

“The movie ‘Seeing the Elephant’ is especially unique in that it is filmed in a 360 degree format, a format that is found in only a Above: The Veterans few places,” she said. “This Gallery honors all unique movie uses sight, American soldiers and sound and ground motion to veterans with figures of give the viewer the feeling of Civil War soldiers sitting being part of the experience.” at a campfire as they are ‘Seeing The Elephant,’ surrounded by statues Gregorski went on to exof soldiers from all the plain, is a term the Civil War other wars in which Soldiers used to describe the country has been their first combat experience. involved.

The residents of Illinois, deal with life after war. An Indiana, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota and Wisconsin provided over 750,000 men to serve in the Union Army.

These soldiers were not the only contribution made to the war effort as these states, known for their rich farmland, produced much of the food necessary to feed the troops throughout the war.

Many of the supplies needed to wage the war were also supplied by the Midwest states. The Fiery Trial exhibit tells the story of those affected by war and their effect on American history.

Interact Club challenge raises $731 for charity

By Yasmin Lara CONTRIBUTOR

Antioch Community High School District 117’s Interact Club held its annual Battle for Change fundraiser on Oct. 14.

Battle for change raises money for the Open Arms in the community. Every year the Interact Club challenges their fellow Lakes Community High School members to a friendly competition.

ACHS battles Lakes to

The Antioch Chamber of Commerce hosted a ribbon cutting for Healthy Small Steps Herbalife, which is owned by Cruzanne Lewis, on Nov. 6. The business is in the Heritage Building, 800 Main St., Antioch.

Two charged in armed robberies A man and a woman from Lake Villa are charged with armed robbery and theft charges following two separate robberies and Nov. 2.

At approximately 5:30 p.m., the Lake County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of an armed robbery at Jay’s Liquor Store, 36735 Highway 83, Lake Villa.

The offender was described as a white male displaying a black gun.

Antioch police responded and began searching with a dog. While still on scene, at approximately 6:15 p.m., a second armed robbery was reported at Lake Villa

Pantry, 37635 Highway 59, Lake Villa.

The same offender description was provided and the black gun, which turned out to be a BB gun, was left at the scene.

Lake Villa police also responded to the second incident and stopped a suspicious vehicle leaving the Lake Villa Pantry, according to authorities.

The driver, Christopher M. Sparrowgrove, 29, of the 25000 Block of W. Carson Dr., Lake Villa, and his girlfriend, Jasmine R. Stevenson, 22, of the same address, were arrested.

They were transported to the Lake County Sheriff’s Office where detectives allegedly obtained confessions on both robberies and a third armed robbery that occurred on Oct. 27 at the Lake Villa Pantry.

During that armed robbery, a male white with a black gun took approximately $700.

Sparrowgrove is charged with two counts of attempted armed robbery, aggravated armed robbery, armed robbery and theft over $300.

Sparrowgrove’s jail bond was set at $250,000.

Stevenson was charged with theft over $300. Her jail bond was set at $75,000.

Firefighters seek hydrant help

The Antioch Fire Department is seeking the public’s help in keeping fire hydrants, access routes and address markers clear of snow this winter.

Residents, business owners and snow removal crews can assist the fire department by clearing hydrants and keeping an area approximately four feet around the hydrant clear.

Fire officials remind snow removal companies to make sure they are not placing plowed snow in areas that obscure fire hydrants and access routes.

Last winter the snow surpassed the height of many hydrants. In this situation, fire officials said, the clearing of hydrants becomes crucial and by taking the extra effort, a tragedy may be prevented.

Officials remind people that shoveling is physically demanding and anyone who may doubt his or her physical condition should take it slow and get someone to help you.

For additional information, call the fire department at (847) 395-5511.

coordinates the Wilmot Artisan Market. She is a local resident who grew up in Antioch, Ill., and went to the school there. “My husband and I were friends during high school,” she says. They married in 2004.

Her husband Dwayne bought the gas station on the corner of highways W and C in Wilmot in December 2009.

An old house came with the property. Cindy needed a place to show her photography. She had also heard local artisans complain about the hassles of individual advertising, constant shop keeping, and the difficulties involved with time-consuming weekend craft shows. She claimed the house for her new business idea.

Cindy has 25 years’ experience as a professional photographer. Her grandfather was a hobby photographer who specialized in portraits.

Early in her life, he infected Cindy with his passion of seeing the world through a camera lens. She specializes in original nature photos, prints, and greeting cards, which she calls “earthscapes.”

Traveling the United States and the world with her husband, she takes pictures full of texture, color, and rich detail. “Dwayne loves hiking and traveling as much as I do,” Cindy said. “He helps me carry my heavy camera gear, which is a big plus.”

A prize ribbon – the People’s Choice Award from the Starline Gallery in Harvard, Ill. – gleams beneath her picture of a small red barn beneath snowy branches that hangs above the store’s counter, proving the quality of her work.

Up a steep flight of stairs, there’s more. China painting and mixed media items show both whimsy and practicality. Creatively repurposed artworks are a specialty of this artist. Elegant driftwood tables and carvings from a seasoned woodworker stand against one wall, available to accent any decor. In the corner is a table of beautiful crocheted accessories, ready to wear during inclement or fair weather.

The next room features traditional native American-inspired items made from gourds, accented by paint and beads. A nature photographer from Burlington commands the final second-floor display, showing a brilliant touch for capturing wildlife in orig-

The list of crafters and their work changes from time to time.

“Several new artists will be joining us in the next two months,” Cindy said.

Shoppers need to be aware that all items here are one-of-a-kind: a piece that captures someone’s fancy may not be here on their next visit. Most of the artisans welcome special orders, however, and will make another of similar color and shape. Be warned, no two ever come out exactly the same. But that’s the beauty of handcrafted pieces.

Shipping may also be available on some items.

There is no better place in the area to find a unique gift or treasure. Wilmot is a short, beautiful drive along the Fox River from most localities. Take a day, or just an afternoon, and investigate the one-of-a-kind items waiting in this wonderful old house.

The treasures inside the Wilmot Artisan’s Market invite discovery, and deserve return visits to see what’s new.

Well-traveled Eddie Cash opens music hall in Powers Lake

Ticket prices Tickets are $12 general admission; seniors 60 and over are $11; groups of 20 or more, $10 each. The theater can only hold 110 people and reservations are strongly encouraged.

“I don’t want folks to drive out here and then be disappointed. I really want them to call first,” said Cash.

Another attraction will be seasonal pontoon boat rides on Powers Lake.

“We are offering the people something they would have to travel to Branson or Vegas to see and it’s right in their own backyard,” said Cash.

“I saw some of the great musicians of our time start their careers from the back seat, because I was right there with them,” Cash said.

Growing up in Memphis in the 40s and 50s, he was at the right place at the right time to see some those musicians begin their own careers.

At 15, Cash began to associate with musicians who hung around Sun Records. The same place musicians such as Elvis Presley, Roy Orbison, Carl Perkins, Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, B.B. King and Charlie Rich recorded their early works.

In 1956 he launched his first band, The Map Caps. His first agent, Bob Neal, was a local radio personality on WMPS in Memphis and called to tell him Elvis was making his first movie in Hollywood and they were looking for someone to play with the original Presley band at a ballroom called the Clearpool.

Doors opened quickly and he began making a name for himself. Another band later and then a phone call from Newport, Arkansas, inviting Cash to play with a young fellow who was changing his name to Conway Twitty.

Learning the ropes Opportunities continued as Cash learned the ropes of the music industry, honed his skills, and worked with an amazing list of musicians. In 1966 he was offered his first contract to perform in Vegas. It was a 10-day contract that lasted 18 years.

While there Cash realized his small combo would not have the same impact, as a 40-piece orchestra would surrounding

him. According to his biography, Cash recalled the powerful musical sound that accompanied Siegfried and Roy. Their music was sequenced on computers and Cash decided that’s what he needed.

It was made possible under the direction of his wife Cheryl, whom he met in Vegas while she was directing the lights and sound for Tom Jones’ Vegas performances.

“So, when people come to my show they are getting a music show accompanied by a 40-piece orchestra that is usually only available in Vegas.”

In 1992 Cash and his wife opened his 53 one-act musicals in Branson, Mo. The Portraits of Music is Cash’s way of telling stories about the musicians he worked with.

“We have put together something you can’t find any where else. It’s treasury of what I have seen through my entire career, set to music.”

Cash says he never gets tired of taking about his career or the musicians he has performed with. At 73, his eyes twinkle as he recalls dates, locations, names. It’s as if it all happened yesterday.

Cash will share stories and sing the songs of Elvis, Bobby Darrin, Nat King Cole, Tennessee Ernie Ford, Buddy Holly, FILE PHOTO Hi-Liter Marty Robbins, Frank Sinatra, The Eddie Cash Music Hall opened in Powers Lake, Wis., earlier this year.

Showtimes The Eddie Cash Show will be performed at 8 p.m. on Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays through Labor Day. In the fall and winter the shows will be performed at 7 p.m. Saturdays and 2 p.m. on Sundays, unless the Packers are playing, then the show will be held several hours later. As Cash says, “Even I can’t compete against the Green Bay Packers.”

Nino will perform at the Eddie Cash Music Hall on Friday nights at 8 p.m. and Saturdays at 2 p.m.

The Saturday matinee is geared toward families and is perfect for children’s parties, Nino said.

Nino is known as a master magician, mind reader and world’s fastest hypnotist.

As for food, Klein, a professionally trained chef who graduated from culinary school in Evanston, Ill., studied with German chefs and also picked up a few tricks from his late father. He will have a variety of appetizers available for purchase prior to the show.

Items such as Uncle Ed’s Ribs, grilled chicken quesadilla, white cheddar cheese curls, baked stuffed mushrooms, chicken DeJohnge and chargrilled cold veggie platter. Beer and wine are also available.

Full dinners can be prepared but must be ordered at least 24

hours in advance.

The serving stops when the shows begin. “This is not a restaurant and you can’t walk in and order beer or something to eat. You can only get in here if you have a ticket for a show,” said Cash.

Cash also does not want the audience to have to strain to hear the show over the din of kitchen clatter and diners. So the kitchen closes when the show begins.

There’s an old Johnny Cash song, “I’ve Been Everywhere” that traces some of his storied adventures, but he might as well have written the song for his friend Eddie Cash.

If anyone has been everywhere, it’s Eddie Cash, who is no relation to Johnny.

Now Eddie Cash can add Powers Lake, in western Kenosha County, Wis., to the long list of venues he has helped put on the map.

Eddie Cash, who has performed with most of the major performers in the music industry of the 50s, 60s and 70s, hosted his own show in Vegas, Reno and Lake Tahoe for 30 years, 10 years in Branson, and eight years at the Belfry Theater in Williams Bay, Wis. He is now bringing his Portraits of Music to the area.

He has joined forces with Nino Cruz, known as Nino the Magician and Ed Klein, whose father owned and operated Uncle Ed’s BBQ Grill and Catering. Uncle Ed’s former restaurant has been transformed into a Vegas/Cabaret-style entertainment theater at N1530 Powers Lake Road, Powers Lake/Genoa City.

Cash said it’s a wonderful cooperative effort, combining his Portraits of Music with Nino’s Mindbender Magic Show and the culinary styling’s of Ed Klein.

The time is now to help

HI-LITER • WEDNESDAY, NOV. 12, 2014 • 12

One family helps another Dear W.C., You provided help to my family two years ago when my daughter was so ill and in the hospital. My daughter still has many medical needs but we manage to get by.

My husband is working fulltime and some side jobs so we have enough to at least pay our rent and utilities. I am not writing you asking for help for my family. I am writing to you to ask if you could help a mother I met while our children were in intensive care at the same time. She has just begun this long road of caring for a sick child as her daughter is just a newborn with health challenges ahead of her.

We got to be friends while going through this ordeal together. There is nothing that can prepare you for the sight of your child in a hospital bed with all kinds of tubes and wires attached to them. We spent long hours talking while our children fought for their lives. When my daughter was released, we exchanged phone numbers and I told her to call me if she ever needed someone to talk to.

She called me yesterday

to ask for help for someone ahead of your own needs. I also thought of how selfless By it is to care for a sick child SAL every day of your life.

DIMICELI Columnist Many of the recipients of our assistance are caregivers who give of themselves every day. Most are thrust because she needed into their role of caregiver someone to talk to. Her car by the needs of a sick child had broken down and she or an elderly relative. Many had not been able to pay her have to give up their jobs to rent due to losing her job take on this role. This only over the amount of time she adds financial stress to an had to take off to care for already traumatic situation. her daughter. My friend said I called the woman she would be evicted next and we spoke for a few week and was worried her minutes, catching up on her car would not make it back daughter’s and the family’s and forth to the hospital. I progress. She was adamant told her about The Time Is that her own family did not Now to Help and offered to need help. She only wanted write you a letter. Is there The Time Is Now to Help any way you could help my to bring the same sense of friend like you helped me financial stress relief to her and my family? friend that we had provided for them two years ago.

Dear readers, The woman again told me I remembered the how we had changed their woman who had written lives and provided them the this letter and the special assistance they had needed circumstances her family to get through an incredibly was struggling with. I knew difficult time. She provided they probably still had a me the name, address and daily struggle with their phone number for her friend own medical and financial in need. needs. It was a selfless thing I called the friend, and

she answered immediately.

She explained she had been waiting for a call from a new specialist for her baby and knew it would come from an unknown number.

She apologized as she told me she would have to hang up immediately if another incoming call interrupted our conversation. I assured her I completely understood that she must not miss that important phone call. I asked the mother some questions about the baby’s condition, not sure if she wanted to share all the personal details. She immediately opened up and shared all the medical facts.

The baby had several birth defects and complications to deal with and would have a long road ahead. The mother told me she was a single mother and did not have anyone to fall back on for support, other than the friend she had met in the hospital who knew what she was going through and had offered to write us a letter in her behalf. The baby’s father had died in a motorcycle crash when she was just three months pregnant. I could hear she

was crying when she told me about the loss of her boyfriend and the baby’s father. She told me how happy they both were to find out she was pregnant.

The mother told me about her difficult pregnancy that only got worse after his death and how she blamed the stress and grief on the premature birth and health problems. I could hear in her voice she was under a great amount of stress.

I agreed to meet the mother at the hospital that afternoon to go over her financial situation. She admitted she had slept in her car the previous night in the hospital parking lot due to being worried the car would not make it back and forth to her home.

I arrived and found the car in the space she had told me it would be.

The mother was waiting inside the car and opened her door after I showed her my identification and introduced myself. I asked if she would like to go talk in the cafeteria and we could get something to eat. The mother said, “I cannot afford to eat in

the cafeteria.” I told her I would like to buy her lunch. She collected a few of her belongings in a tote bag and we went inside the hospital. We picked out our trays of food, I encouraged her to fill her tray even adding some nonperishable things for later, and we sat in a less crowded corner of the cafeteria to talk. I watched as the mother ate very fast, as only a truly hungry person does. I asked when the last time she had eaten was and she confessed not since a peanut butter sandwich the previous day. I asked if she had any money on her at all for food, gas, etc. She had $1.29 in her pocket. My heart went out to this poor hungry woman.

The mother told me she had taken every penny she could find to try and pay her last month’s rent to prevent the eviction. She still was $300 dollars short for that rent, and the landlord was demanding that he be paid immediately. The mother told me how she worried each time she left her apartment that when she

returned she would find her belongings on the curb.

I asked if she had spoken to her landlord about her situation. She said she had not told him the details. I told the mother she needed to share with her landlord the reason she was unable to pay her rent this month.

The mother said, “When I called him to tell him I was late, he said he did not want to hear any excuses, he just wanted his rent money.

He would not even let me give him a reason for being late.” When I offered to speak to her landlord for her, she looked confused and asked, “Would you?” I called the landlord and once he heard it was The Time Is Now to Help calling, he was willing to listen to what the mother had to say. After I explained the mother’s situation, the landlord went from a place of defensiveness to asking what he could do to help. He apologized for his rudeness in their previous conversation, stating he had gotten so used to overdue renters, he never thought there might be a valid excuse.

After we spoke with the landlord, and I told him we would be paying her overdue rent and two months into the future allowing the mother time to get the baby well and home, he offered to reduce her rent by $100 per month. Both the mother and I thanked him for his help. I went through her remaining overdue bills and found she needed help

with her utilities. These were brought up to date and paid into the future. I arranged for her car to get in for the much needed repairs.

The mother looked panicked as she asked, “How will I get back and forth to the hospital while my car is in for repairs?” I told her we would provide a motel room for the next few days within walking distance of the hospital. This would give her a safe place to sleep and would eliminate her long daily commute while her car was in for much needed service. We also provided her with some pocket money to use for her food and personal needs for the next few days. The next day the mother dropped her car off for service and a volunteer graciously drove her to the hospital where she would stay with her baby and walk to the motel at night to sleep.

Three days later the mother called to thank all of us for her car repairs. She said she had driven to the hospital and it had run like new. She also thanked all of us for removing the stress and anxiety of the financial situation she was in. The mother said she could now focus on the health of her little girl and getting her well enough to come home.

Thankfully the mother was able to bring her daughter home several weeks later. The mother was so grateful she had her apartment to bring her baby home to. She also had formed a closer friendship

with the woman who had written a letter on her behalf. The mother told me to share her appreciation with all of you. God bless you for making this and all our assistance possible.

Hoy Audubon to host birding events in area Hoy Audubon of Kenosha/Racine Counties is hosting bird walks along Lake Michigan in Racine on Saturdays during November.

The event is free and open to the public; all levels of interest and experience are welcome.

The gatherings are at 9 a.m. Nov. 15, 22 and 29 at Shoop Park parking lot, located between Three and Four Mile roads on Lighthouse Drive south of the Wind Point Lighthouse. The group will be watching for migrating ducks – males will begin to show off their striking breeding plumage about this time of year – as well as scoters, grebes and other waterfowl. There might be a few shorebirds, also, and late Fall migrating birds such as Yellow-rumped Warblers and Kinglets in wooded areas.

Among the most often seen birds in this area during November are Canada Geese, Mallard Ducks, American Black Ducks, Buffleheads, Common Goldeneyes, Greater Scaups, Redheads, Mergansers, Horned Grebes, some gulls, Downy Woodpeckers, American Crows, Black-capped Chickadees and Golden-crowned Kinglets.

The weather will be brisk, so a warm jacket, hat and gloves are recommended.

Walking shoes to cover the more than half-mile walk one way also are a good idea. If you have them, bring binoculars, a field guide and spotting scope.

Audubon expert offers winter birding tips A local birder will discuss ways to enjoy birds during the coming winter months.

The presentations are free and open to the public.

Rick Fare, a long-time birder and Hoy Audubon of Kenosha/Racine Counties board member, will give presentations at Hawthorn Hollow Nature Center, 880 Green Bay Road, Somers, at 10 a.m. Saturday, Nov. 15, and Wilmot Union High School, 11112 308th Ave., Wilmot, at 6:30 p.m. Tuesday, Nov. 18.

Search for Owls at Bong Hoy Audubon of Kenosha/Racine Counties will host an Owl Prowl at Bong State Recreation Area on Friday, Nov. 14. The search for owls event is free and open to the public, but a Wisconsin State Parks vehicle admission sticker is required while within park boundaries.

The group will meet at 7 p.m. at the Bong parking lot on the north side of Highway BB, approximately 0.7 mile west of Highway 75, in Brighton, Kenosha County, and drive to various locations in the park to listen for owls.

The birds of prey seen and heard at Bong have included the Great Horned Owl, Eastern Screech Owl, Barred Owl and Short-eared Owl. Short-eared Owls have made Bong their winter residence for many years.

A network of care Local health alliance offers help for a variety of issues

By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

Four groups organized by the Antioch Area Health Accessibility Alliance offer the chance to learn from and help others who may be dealing with the challenges of mental and physical health issues.

Caregivers are a selfless and hardy bunch and the opportunity to share experiences and resources with other caregivers is a good thing.

When alliance network nurse Gloria Stevens and clinical social worker Nancy Wohlrabe put their thoughts together about eight months ago, they came up with a Caregiver Support Group.

It’s a small group that meets every other Thursday at the United Methodist Church in Antioch and Wohlrabe said there is room for more.

“We may be changing the meeting time from evening to afternoon for the winter,” she said. “It will be better for folks to travel during the daylight hours, especially when the weather gets bad and it gets icy and snowy.”

People in the caregiver group might be caring for a spouse, parent or other loved

one who might have medical or psychological issues. The challenges faced by other caregivers are similar.

“The connections between caregivers is important,” Wohlrabe said. “Once you can talk things over with and listen to others, you don’t feel so alone. You understand that the challenges you face and feelings you have are quite normal.”

In mid-January, the Antioch Area Health Accessibility Alliance will begin a series of sessions about dementia at the Antioch Community Library. Understanding and dealing with dementia are topics that will be covered. For more information and exact times, call Stevens at (847) 395-1259.

Wohlrabe also serves seniors and other adults in Lake, Cook, Dupage, Kane and McHenry counties through in-home counseling for seniors. Seniors and other adults who are experiencing struggles with stress, loss, or increasing emotional or physical difficulties and have a hard time with traveling outside the home can have counseling services in the comfort and privacy of their homes.

Individuals providing this service are a network of licensed clinical social workers, experienced in treating a variety of emotional, psychological, and life issues.

If you need this service or know someone who does, call Wohlrabe at (847) 9035604 or email at counselingseniors@gmail.com.

Diabetes education Diabetes is a group of diseases marked by high levels of blood glucose resulting from defects in insulin production, insulin action or both. Diabetes can lead to serious health complications and premature death, but people with diabetes can take steps to control the disease and lower the risk of complications.

According to the Center for Disease Control, more than 29 million people in the United States have diabetes and one in four people with diabetes doesn’t know he or she has it.

The health accessibility alliance has an education program to aid those who have diabetes, are in the pre-diabetes stage or have been warned by their doctor of the need to make lifestyle

changes to prevent it.

Gloria Boland, a nurse from Condell, is a diabetes educator and Mary Carroll, also from Condell, is a dietician. They provide information about how diet, proper use of medications and exercise can work together to help get the diabetes under control and improve your life.

“We should all eat the way diabetics are supposed to eat,” Stevens said. “It’s just healthy eating. And exercise helps to lower blood sugar. A diabetic needs to exercise like anyone else, but the diabetic needs to include more safeguards.”

This group meets every other week. Call Stevens for exact time.

Working through grief The grief education support group meets every other Tuesday at Antioch UMC. This group meets Tuesday at 7 p.m. until mid December.

The group’s current focus is coping with the holidays and loss.

Other topics that have been and will be covered are the stages of grief and handling depression and anxiety. This is another opportu-

Scrapbookers united

nity to meet with others who are experiencing the same challenges and discover how they cope.

A depression and bipolar support alliance group is meant to benefit those who have been diagnosed and desire help in managing the challenges. Dick, at (847) 395-2848, and Judy, at (847) 245-3924, are leaders who have dealt with these issues and trained to help others.

This group is part of the national Depression & Bipolar support Alliance.

What participants can encounter at the Antioch peeled support group is selfhelp, acceptance and safety, reflection, confidentiality and resource materials.

The group meets weekly at 6 p.m. at the Antioch Senior Center, 817 Holbeck Dr., Antioch.

For more information visit the Antioch Area Health Accessibility Alliance website at http://aahaa4health. org. To speak with Stevens, call (847) 395-1259.

Diabetes Expo is part of craft fair

By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

The Antioch Area Health Accessibility Alliance will conduct a Diabetes Expo from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. during the St. Stephen’s Craft Fair on Saturday, Nov. 15, at the church, 1155 Hillside Avenue.

The expo will include a brown bag review of medications by a Walgreens pharmacist and free blood pressure checks. Condell Medical Center personnel will be on hand to answer questions. Vendors will also be available to provide items that people can use to help manage their diabetes.

There will also be an opportunity to sign up for the Affordable Health Care Act will the assistance of navigators. There will be giveaways, according to al-

liance network nurse Gloria Stevens.

The craft fair is an annual event that will run until 3 p.m. with no commercial vendors. Twenty-five crafters will offer their wares ranging from soaps and candles to concrete garden stones. The fair limits crafters to two of each type to provide variety. There is no charge to enter the fair.

There is a secret raffle, with vendors donating items that are in bags. Raffle tickets are $1 each. The money from this raffle and the accompanying bake sale is used to fund Fellowship church events. The community is welcome.

For more information about the Diabetes Expo, call Gloria at (847) 3951259 or Vicki at (847) 3953359.

2 charged Ready for a Dickens in armed of a holiday robberies A man and a woman from Lake Villa are charged with armed robbery and theft following two separate robberies Nov. 2.

At approximately 5:30 p.m., the Lake County Sheriff’s Office responded to a report of an armed robbery at Jay’s Liquor Store, 36735 Highway 83, Lake Villa.

The offender was described as a white male displaying a black gun.

Antioch police responded and began searching with a dog. While still on scene, at approximately 6:15 p.m., a second armed robbery was reported at Lake Villa Pantry, 37635 Highway 59, Lake Villa.

The same offender description was provided and the black gun, which turned out to be a BB gun, was left at the scene.

Lake Villa police also responded to the second incident and stopped a suspicious vehicle leaving the Lake Villa Pantry, according to authorities.

The driver, Christopher M. Sparrowgrove, 29, of the 25000 Block of W. Carson Dr., Lake Villa, and his girlfriend, Jasmine R. Stevenson, 22, of the same address, were arrested.

They were transported to the Lake County Sheriff’s Office where detectives allegedly obtained confessions on both robberies and a third armed robbery that occurred on Oct. 27 at the Lake Villa Pantry. During that armed robbery, a male white with a black

Wrapped up in love

By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

Shakespeare tells us that it is “sleep that knits up the raveled sleeve of care,” but the women of the Antioch Area Health Care Accessibility Alliance knit and crochet group will tell you that their handiwork wraps up others in their warm love.

Five of the regulars were on hand Oct. 13 at the Antioch United Methodist Church to knit and crochet together. They meet the second Monday of the month from 1 to 3 p.m.

While they are all members of either the United Methodist, St. Ignatius Episcopal or St. Stephen Lutheran Churches, there is room for anyone to join them.

These experienced knitters and crocheters work on their own projects and are willing to teach others or help them figure out where things went wrong. They also work together on special projects for people and causes near and dear to their hearts.

Since she retired from teaching Spanish at Antioch High School 25 years ago, Carol Maplethorpe has knit over 200 sweaters for the World Vision Knit for kids project.

“I saw an ad for this in Guideposts and wrote in to get the pattern,” she said. “Friends and relatives have also knitted sweaters. When I started it, the pattern was very simple, like a T-shirt.”

Over the years, Maplethorpe and

Jeanine Leonhart makes the prayer cards that are attached to pocket prayer cloths crafted by the women. The 3-by-3-inch squares have a raised cross pattern in the middle. Each of the three churches has a basket that is regularly refilled.

Parishioners are free to take a cloth to give to anyone they know who is in need and might benefit from a reminder of God’s comfort and care. The Sequoit Auxiliary Veterans of Foreign Wars sent packages overseas and 125 of these prayer cloths were included.

The first pocket prayer cloth pattern was knitted and network nurse and fellow crocheter Gloria Stevens translated it into a crochet pattern.

Every few months, these gifts of love made by the group are blessed before being distributed, often in a joint service.

Wais explained, “This is a self-supporting ministry. We accept monetary and yarn donations, however, most of our shawls and items are gifts from the individual knitters and crocheters who make them.”

Antioch United Methodist Church is at 848 Main Street. Those interested in joining the group may enter at the door marked church office by ringing the bell. For more information, call Gloria Stevens at (847) 395-1259.

others who participated in the project made suggestions to lengthen the sleeves and add ribbing to the bottom of the sleeve and body. This allows the sweater to hug the body and keep the child warm.

“Everyone uses the same pattern,” Maplethorpe explained. “But we can make each different in color and use different stitches.”

Sally Todd knits hats for Open Arms Mission in Antioch. She has 75 hats ready to go this year and has knitted more than 500 over the years.

Another knitter, Ruth Beemis, knits hats for Providing Advocacy, Dignity and Shelter for the homeless.

While each woman might have a particular mission, they all contribute their handiwork – including hats, scarves, mittens and afghans for area nursing homes, PADS and Open Arms, and baby afghans for the newly baptized babies.

During the recent group gathering Shelby Wais was busy creating a prayer shawl. In 2009, Northern Illinois University asked for prayer shawls on the first anniversary of the 2008 campus shooting. These were given to people who were involved in the shooting. Everyone began work to produce them.

Those 19 shawls were the beginning the group’s Prayer Shawl Ministry. Since then, over 300 shawls haven been sent to Grace Children’s Hospital in Haiti, Red Bird Mission

Begin your Dickens experience at the Welcome Center, at 400-1/2 Lake Street inside of the Village Antique Shop. Visitors will learn more about the creation of Dickens Holiday Village and may pick up a walking tour brochure to begin learning more about life during the Dickens era.

Each Saturday beginning Nov. 15, the Chamber will sponsor several activities for visitors, including: street musicians, carolers, Scrooge running away from the kids (If you find him, ask him for some money and listen to him complain), a dog costume contest, a chance to meet Mrs. Charles Dickens, and Dickens radio performers.

Visit DickensHolidayVillage.com for a complete listing of events If you aren’t a Dickens fan, but perhaps enjoy telling people “Bah Humbug!” you might be a candidate for a Scrooge U shirt or mug.

County man was wanted for multiple crimes

The McHenry County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of top 10 fugitive Wallace A. Henshall, 50, of McHenry, who was captured in Lake Geneva, Wis., Nov. 6.

Henshall was taken into custody in a parking lot adjacent to a Walmart, where he allegedly resisted arrest and was in possession of a firearm and a police scanner.

Henshall was transported to the Lake Geneva Police Department where he faces further criminal charges and will await extradition back to McHenry County.

He is wanted by the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office for four arrest warrants: burglary, possession of stolen vehicle, felony criminal damage to state supported property and possession of ammunition/ weapon by felon.

On April 3, the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office received a failure to appear arrest warrant for Henshall as a result of a Crystal Lake Police Department charges for burglary, possession of stolen vehicle and possession of burglary tools. Efforts to locate and arrest Henshall were made by the McHenry City Police Department and the McHenry County Sheriff’s Office.

Hobo presentation set at museum 2010 book, “Hobo Quilts: 55+ Original Blocks Based on the Secret Language of Riding the Rails” features historic photos and excerpts from hobo letters. The book also contains 21 original projects made from the hobo blocks she has compiled.

“I always promise [those who attend my lectures] that they will learn more about hobos than they ever wanted to,” Henninger said with a laugh.

During the Dust Bowl years of the Great Depression, an estimated 3.5 million people moved away from the Plaines states during the 1930s. Henninger said that vast migration included some 120,000 young men who hopped the rails and were never seen or heard from again.

“This generation lost an entire generation of young boys to the trains,” she said.

“The Depression was so widespread and so devastating.”

Henninger, formerly of Metamora and now living in Crossville, Tenn., retired in January after running three quilt shops in central Illinois for 17 years. But she remains

Quilt aficionados and rail fans will have an opportunity to satisfy both passions, during a special Hobo Quilts and Railroads presentation at 1:30 p.m. Wednesday, Nov. 12, at the McHenry County Historical Society Museum, 6422 Main St., Union.

“Being a quilt shop owner, I was always looking for something unusual,” author and quilter Debra Henninger said. She was inspired to learn more about hobos and railroads after reading Errol Lincoln Uys’ “Riding the Rails: Teenagers on the Move During the Great Depression.”

In particular, Henninger said the secret sign language hobos used intrigued her.

Castigated by the public and frequently illiterate, hobos frequently used chalk and coal dust to communicate with their fellow travelers. Crossed lines, for example, signaled danger.
