AMANDA HULTMARK

Downers Grove student on ‘pointe’ with performance

By Danny Ciamprone Suburban Life correspondent

At one time or another, every athlete or performer has that moment of clarity. That moment when they realize they’ve made it and all the time and the ups and downs paid off.

For 12-year-old ballerina Amanda Hultmark of Darien, this year has been a series of those moments, starting this past summer when she earned her pointe shoes.

She’s been working her way toward them for nearly 10 years, dancing and performing ballet since she was 3 years old.

“It was so awesome,” Amanda said. “It feels really cool because nobody ever really stands on their toes.”

Amanda’s mom, Gina, said her daughter always loved “twirling around the house,” and after enrolling her in ballet at the Darien Park District, it quickly grew into a passion that required determination and hard work.

“It’s a lot of balancing and you use your core muscles a lot more than people think,” said Gina. “Also, when they decide for you to go on pointe, to get the special shoes and actually go up on your toes, the teacher has to make sure your calves are strong enough to do that so you don’t get injured.”

Amanda added: “It’s hard, but it’s really fun,” she said.

“It’s definitely worth it.”

Amanda now practices in two-hour sessions twice a week at Midwest Ballet Academy in Downers Grove, but in the summer, practices will move up to three days a week. She’s put significant time and effort into ballet for such a young age, and she recently experienced another one of those “moments.”

Moscow Ballet’s “The Great Russian Nutcracker” came to the Akoo Theatre in Rosemont this month and Amanda was one of nearly 70 Chicago-area ballet dancers who had the honor of performing in the

show.

“It was an amazing experience and it was unlike anything I’ve ever done before,” she said.

Gina Hultmark said the audition was Amanda’s first, and could have been the most stressful.

“They weren’t taught to dance; they basically just showed them how to do something really quickly for each different scene and then they just had to dance from what they saw,” her mother said.

But Amanda loved the audition because of the thrill to be chosen for the show. She has performed in the Midwestern Ballet’s version of “The Nutcracker” before, but this was the first time she appeared in the traveling “Great Russian Nutcracker.” “‘The Great Russian Nutcracker’ was really fun because it was so different,” Amanda said.

Not only was the show an experience of a lifetime for Amanda, but it served as a memorable holiday moment for those who attended.

“They had to start the show a little later because it was supposed to take off at 3 p.m., and people were still coming in and were lined up,” Gina Hultmark said.

She added she hopes Amanda’s latest performance is a preview of the many great ones to come, as the talented girl shows no signs of slowing down.

“I don’t know where she got it, but it’s not from us,” Gina Hultmark said with a laugh. “She’s quite the performer.”

“I’m getting the heck out of here, going to Tampa Bay, Florida.”

After tragedy, school administrators lay out safety, counseling responses

BY BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com

DOWNERS GROVE — In the wake of last week’s Connecticut school shooting tragedy, administrators have stepped up safety precautions in Downers Grove schools.

As of Monday, the front doors at the elementary and middle schools in Downers Grove School District 58 will be locked while students are in attendance, and guests will have to contact the front office to be admitted.

Doorbells have been installed at each school. For now, a staff member will let guests in manually, while district officials consider a more sophisticated buzzer system. The district already had a policy to keep all other doors locked during attendance hours.

District 58 Superintendent Kara Cremascoli outlined the changes in a letter posted on the district’s website and emailed to parents Monday.

She said that while there is no plan that can totally prevent “a random act of senseless violence” like the one in Newtown, Conn.

— that elementary school also kept its front door locked and buzzed in guests, according to reports — “we believe the added security

will offer an additional sense of safety and security for our students, staff and parents,” Cremascoli wrote.

Also, next month District 58 officials will host a community forum to discuss the district’s safety and security measures as part of a regular review of those procedures.

Community High School District 99 and District 58 both have emergency alert systems that go into effect to notify parents.

Cellphone users can sign up for District 99’s text message alerts by texting “subscribe” to 68453.

District 58, on the other hand, uses a parent notification system called SchoolMessenger to send phone messages or email notifications.

“These messages are sent automatically to the email addresses and phone numbers that our families have provided to our schools,” district spokeswoman Jennifer Waldorf said in an email. “Parents can update their contact information through their child’s school.”

Meanwhile, administrators are outlining a more specific approach this week for students reacting to the Connecticut shooting.

In District 58’s, administrators have detailed a specific, sensitive approach to dealing with last week’s tragedy.

“Our goal this week is to maintain a nurturing, familiar and safe school environment for our students as we prepare for winter break,” Cremascoli wrote in another letter over the weekend. “We need to remind our students of their safety in school, and help them focus on their learning.”

She acknowledged that many parents might want to shield their young children from details of the event. As such, Cremascoli wrote, the district’s approach will be “one of supportive reflection for one in need.”

“Following suggestions from mental health experts, teachers have been advised to respond to students’ questions truthfully, but with the appropriate amount of limited detail so that questions and concerns are addressed without putting undue focus on the event,” she wrote.

“Teachers are monitoring their students throughout the day watching for any indicators of stress or fear, and taking direction from their students as to how — or whether — this issue is addressed in their classroom.”

For any students who seem upset about the incident, District 58 will offer individual support through a social worker, psychologist or counselor and will notify the parents, Cremascoli said.

The real meat of the Common Core in math

Pedestrians must take precautions on roadways Walkers, joggers and others on the streets after dark, please do yourself and unsuspecting drivers a favor by taking safety precautions, especially after dark.

I just nearly struck a woman crossing the street at the corner of Bolson and Brunette Drive.

There are no street lights, and it is pitch black.

She was dressed in a dark hat, dark jacket and dark pants.

I did not see her until I was halfway into my turn and only when she turned to face me with my headlights reflecting off her face.

I rolled down my window to apologize and ask her to please wear light colored clothing next time. She held a flashing stick up, which I never saw until that moment.

Please don’t give yourself a false sense of security. Your flashing stick won’t help if it’s not turned on.

If you are carrying a stick in the hand opposite the side the driver is approaching when you are otherwise not visible in the dark, it will not save your life.

Always be aware of oncoming and turning cars — you can see them way before they can see you.

And please do not wear dark clothing after dark if you expect to be seen. Please take extra precautions and avoid ruining two lives.

Thumbs Up — This year, Downers Grove Grade School District 58 rolled out an initative to put iPads and Apple TV in every classroom to help with instruction. Teachers are beginning to embrace the high-tech education model. The introduction of the devices and the open-ended approach are a combined solution to a seemingly paradoxical dilemma: how to implement a single approach to technology uniformly across the district’s classrooms, yet still offer enough flexibility that teachers from first grade through middle school can adapt it to their individual students’ needs.

Thumbs Down — A news release from the village has warned Downers Grove residents against potential telephone scams taking advantage of this year’s electric aggregation initiative. The program gives the village the authority to take bids for a new energy provider.

But that process is nearly completed; the village has accepted a bid from First Energy Solutions. Commonwealth Edison will continue to deliver the electricity provided by First Energy. Power customers, however, should not give any personal information to people calling or visiting their homes.

Over the past few years, teachers and administrators throughout Illinois have spent countless hours digging through the new Common Core State Standards in Mathematics adopted by Illinois in 2010.

These new standards aim to provide fewer, clearer and higher standards to guide the work of teachers and students throughout our schools. They are internationally benchmarked, evidenced-based and focused on 21st century learning.

While the new content standards in math offer a roadmap to accomplish a balanced combination of conceptual understanding and procedural fluency in progressively complex areas of math, I would argue that the real meat of the Common Core State Standards in Math Kari resides in the other, less-freCremascoli quently discussed portion of the standards known as the Standards for Math Practice.

They describe the habits of mind of a mathematically expert student. They delineate the variety of metacognitive skills that today’s students need to develop and apply each and every day as they attempt to address real-world challenges.

Without specifically delineating the skills and procedures of math, the Standards for Math Practice emphasize the habits of the mind critical for “making sense of problems and persevering in solving them.” They require an attention to precision and the strategic use of tools in appropriate and efficient ways.

Although these practices seem self-evident and obvious, for many of today’s youth who are accustomed to focusing more on arriving at the correct answer than thinking through the processes, developing these habits is a challenge in and of itself. Considering the whys and the hows of problem-solving, reflecting on our own thinking, critiquing the reasoning of others and evaluating the wealth of data and information available at our finger tips at any given moment can be difficult.

The Standards for Math Practice call upon us to directly teach and reinforce these habits as a focus of our daily work with students. They represent our collective pathways to success as we prepare our students to tackle the challenges of the 21st century and they are the meat of what we are trying to accomplish with our students in every classroom every day.

Although a tremendous amount of work lies ahead of us, I for one am excited by the opportunity to develop student practitioners of the discipline of mathematics who are thinkers, doers, creators of solutions and capable to contributing substantially to our competitive global economy.

Village approves Metra lot rate increases SUBURBAN LIFE MEDIA

DOWNERS GROVE — Parking rates likely will go up at Downers Grove’s commuter lots by the middle of next year, but residents won’t be paying as much as they could have been.

Last week, the Village Council approved a rate increase at all Metra station lots. Parking rates could go to $90 for residents per quarter, up from $80 at the Main Street and Belmont stations and up from $75 at the Fairview lot.

Nonresidents, meanwhile, would pay $130 at those lots.

If the new prices are approved by Metra and BNSF Railway, they could go into effect as soon as the third quarter of 2013.

The rates were revised after commissioners balked last week at increases that weighed more heavily on residents.

A proposal that was tabled at the Dec. 3 council meeting would have raised rates to $100 for residents and $120 for nonresidents at Main Street and Belmont, and slightly less at Fairview.

Last week, Commissioner Bob Barnett proposed holding off on the increases

“

The proposal that was before us last week, in my opinion, put too much of that burden on residents,”

Commissioner Bob Barnet

so the council could revise the figures.

He instead offered the plan that would increase resident rates $10.

“The proposal that was before us last week, in my opinion, put too much of that burden on residents,” Barnett said at the meeting Dec. 11.

Metra had already signed off on the initial rates, and those would have gone into effect after March. Implementation will be delayed now as transit officials consider the new numbers.

The increase in parking rates came

after last year’s downtown parking study, which reported the village was charging less than some nearby stations, including the $105 charged in Lisle and at least $110 charged in Naperville. Still, other communities offer cheaper commuter spots, such as Westmont’s $75 per quarter for residents and nonresidents alike.

But Downers Grove’s Metra parking rates have remained unchanged since 2001. Barnett pointed this out before commissioners unanimously approved the new prices.

“So it’s never fun to pay more for anything, but we are compelled to do a variety of maintenance issues relative to these parking lots,” he said. “So an increase like this is — there’s never such a thing as a good time, but I’d suggest that after the better part of 12 years, it’s probably due.”

Also at last week’s meeting, the officials a date for discussing the village’s chicken coop ordinance.

Downers Grove is one of a handful of suburban communities that allow residents to keep chickens as pets in their yards, but the ordinance requires the coop sit at least 50 feet from the property line. That means only a portion of residents can keep chickens, and after the urging of some families this month, the council decided to review the ordinance and possibly revise it.

The issue will be discussed Jan. 21 at a standing committee of the council.

A WINDOW INTO DOWNERS GROVE’S PAST

ONE OF THE ORIGINALS Charles Carpenter was an influential resident of Downers Grove, having served as a private in the Civil War as part of the Company of Downers Grove men who mustered into service at Dixon on May 24, 1861.

After the war, he returned home to Downers Grove and became one of a handful of Downers Grove men who signed the incorporation papers for the Village of Downers Grove in 1873.

In later years, Charles would serve as a clerk for the Village of Downers Grove while keeping the occupation of short–hand reporter working primarily in Chicago and residing in Downers Grove at 853 Maple Ave. Photo courtesy of the Downers Grove Park District Museum

Donated gifts brighten families’ holidays at Sharing Connections

BY BRIAN HUDSON bhudson@shawmedia.com

DOWNERS GROVE — Volunteers rush about the room, moving furniture, readying toys for the shelves and preparing to hang holiday decorations.

It’s a hum of activity that would rival Santa’s workshop on Christmas Eve — and they have the same purpose in mind.

This week, volunteers and staff converted Sharing Connections Furniture Bank in Downers Grove into a Christmas toyland.

After families, churches and businesses donated hundreds of toys throughout this month, volunteers will provide them to families in need this week.

This is the fifth year of the holiday gift program.

The rest of the year, Sharing Connections serves its missions as a furniture bank, in which volunteers take in and restore donated furniture and household items that are then distributed to families throughout the

Chicago region.

But starting last weekend, the space was converted in a matter of hours to a holiday toy store.

This week, starting Monday and through Thursday, families that came to the store were greeted with holiday decorations and treats in order to make the program as cheery and welcoming as possible, said Chris Cholewa, Sharing Connections executive director.

Staff and volunteers are heading into the donation program with high hopes, but with some reservations.

This Christmas, the number of children receiving gifts has doubled. Last year, the parents of 625 children registered for gifts.

This year, the parents of 1,252 children have signed up to receive gifts, said Ryan Varju, director of programs and operations.

Part of the reason is that some gift donations have folded in recent years, Varju said.

With the added demand, some businesses in the community have stepped up. Platinum Partners Realtors in downtown Downers Grove, for one, last week delivered dozens of toys the office had collected.

Toys for Tots Foundation, which pledges to provide a toy for children up to 12 years old, the largest share of gifts — about onethird of the toys at Sharing Connections, Varju estimated.

But the foundation does not cover teenagers, so there can be a shortage of gifts for older children, Cholewa said.

Toward the end of the drive last year, staff members went out to buy gifts teens might like — basketball for boys and body lotion for girls — after the shelves started running low.

“Teenage gifts are always a No. 1 need,” Cholewa said. “At the present time that’s our biggest concern.”

Last week, Cholewa said that those picking up gifts are always appreciative, and they will tell workers that, “without you all, we wouldn’t have Christmas,” Cholewa said.

But that’s not quite accurate, she added.

“This isn’t us. This is the community coming together,” Cholewa said. “Without the community, we couldn’t do this. We get people all over giving to help their neighbor.”

NEWS BRIEFS Five incumbents, one newcomer file for Downers Grove school districts

DOWNERS GROVE — Six candidates have filed for seats on Downers Grove's school boards, but more are expected to join the races before the end of the filing period next week.

Four seats are up for election in April on both the Community High School District 99 and the Downers Grove School District 58 school boards.

On Monday — the first day of the filing period — four candidates, including three incumbents, submitted their paperwork for the District 58 school board. Incumbents John D. Cooper Jr., Sallie Ann Lupescu and Roberta Diehl, as well as newcomer James Paul, filed intentions to run.

President Stephen Funk did not file his paperwork for re-election as of Monday afternoon.

In District 99, only two incumbents have stepped into the race so far. President Bill White and Vice President Deb Boyle filed early on the first day. Candidates Terry Pavesich and Julia Beckman are also up for re-election next year, but they did not file on Monday.

Candidates can continue to file through

Friday, and they will have another window on Dec. 26.

Two Downers Grove teachers receive national certification honor DOWNERS GROVE — Two Downers Grove North High School teachers have received nationally certification, an advanced credential that indicates effective and knowledgeable educators.

Bill Miller, a teacher in the fine arts department, and John Waite, a teacher in the English department, were recognized as National Board Certified teachers from the National Board for Professional Teaching Standards, according to a Community High School District 99 announcement this week.

As part of the rigorous and lengthy certification process, candidates complete 10 assessments that are reviewed by trained teachers in their certificate areas, according to a release from the district. The assessments measure candidates’ knowledge of their subject areas as well as their teaching practices.

“All of us at District 99 are extremely proud of Bill and John for this impressive accomplishment, and for going above

and beyond to challenge themselves,” Superintendent Mark McDonald said in a press release. “Ultimately, their growth means an even richer educational experience for our students.”

Miller and Waite join other National Board Certified faculty members at North including Mike Heinz, chairman of the science department, and Brayer Teague, chairman of the fine arts department. At Downers Grove South High School, National Board Certified faculty includes Laura Coster of the fine arts department and Glenn Williams, chairman of the fine arts department.

75th Street expansion project moves toward completion Construction on 75th Street from Lyman Avenue to Interstate 355 has kept traffic in a snarl for residents in Downers Grove and the area since March. But the end is in sight, and businesses along the project corridor are breathing a sigh of relief.

The $11.2 million project includes the construction of an additional lane in each direction to accommodate the heavy flow of traffic in the corridor. Also as part of the project, additional turn lanes were installed to the primarily commercial and business corridor and improvements were made to the many

intersections along the project area.

“The big push for the project was safety and congestion relief. That section of 75th Street carries 40,000 to 45,000 cars per day,” DuPage County engineer Chris Snyder said.

Snyder said there is still work that needs to be done, such as the final surfacing, some curb work and grading. For that, lanes may be closed on an as-needed daily basis.

“It’s a big project,” he said.

A final completion date has yet to be determined.

The effect construction would have on business along the corridor was a big concern, Snyder said. A pre-construction meeting was held with the business community to explain the particulars of the project and how it would affect access into the businesses, he said.

“The one thing we did do with this project is limit lane closures to daily closures, as opposed to totally closing lanes throughout the project” Snyder said. “At the Lemont Road intersection, we did have to close lanes permanently for a couple weeks because it was a total reconstruction. We tried to work with the businesses to keep entrances open at all times.”

The road work has included resurfacing of 75th Street between I-355 and Lyman Avenue in addition to Woodward Avenue and Lemont Road; construction of a new right-turn lane and dual left-turn lanes on 75th Street at Lemont Road; installation of new storm sewers, concrete curbs, gutters and traffic lights; construction of a bike path along the south side of 75th Street between Woodward and Lyman avenues; and the replacement of the existing landscape barrier median.

Downers Grove offices collecting coats for charity DOWNERS GROVE — Gently used coats and accessories can be donated through January at Downers Grove Village Hall.

The items will be delivered to Downers Grove nonprofit Sharing Connections Furniture Bank, which provides household items to families and individuals in need.

Drop boxes will be available in the lobby of village hall, 801 Burlington Ave., and at the Downers Grove police station, 825 Burlington Ave., through Jan. 14.

Holiday light recycling offered DOWNERS GROVE — Village officials will collect and recycle Christmas lights now through January at Downers Grove Public Works, 5101 Walnut Ave. The items — including mini-lights, C7 lights, C9 lights, rope lights, LED lights and extension cords — can be dropped off from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Mondays through Fridays until Feb. 1.

TASTE OF THE TOWN

Tapping a brand Trademark Tavern ADDRESS: 777 E. Butterfield Road, Lombard CONTACT: 630-472-0777 www.trademarktavern.com

WHAT TO TRY

ew to Lombard is the upscale sports bar and restaurant Trademark Tavern, whose touches include a pale ale specially crafted for the pub by Two Brothers Brewing Company. Adding panache to the tavern’s concept is co-owner Mandy (Lane) Lewandowski, a twotime veteran of TV’s “Fear Factor,” and a former Miss Illinois USA. She and her husband, Matt, are partners in the venture with George Cibula.

“We’re trying to provide a really welcoming atmosphere that caters to area professionals looking for a unique spot to enjoy a business lunch — and after work, sports fans seeking a really good venue for viewing favorite events,” she says.

Included in the eatery are four tapper tables, each sporting a pair of different craft beers, where customers pour their own drafts. In addition, the bar has dozens of specialty beers on tap.

“It’s a different type of experience,” Mandy Lewandowski says, noting the tavern features an array of fine whiskeys and Scotch in addition to signature cocktails, wines and more than 60 beers. “We bring a downtown feel to the suburbs.”

She calls the menu inventive and affordable, with dishes prepared from scratch in the kitchen — from the popular reuben rolls to beer batter made with Fat Tire beer for the cheese curds.

Matt Lewandowski says the sports bar serves many dishes perfect for sharing from an eclectic menu offering appetizers, sushi

ITEM Turkey burger PRICE $10

A GRINCH WHOBILATION During this jolly, holly time of year, the Grinch will invade Westmont and attempt to steal some of that holiday cheer. He’ll take over Santa’s workshop and turn it into his dark, dingy cave. There will be Grinch games such as the snowball toss, Grinch gift towers, the Grinch slither and Grinch crafts and treats. Hang out inside before heading outside to take a look at the holiday lights on the long-eared mules wagon. The event will take place from 5 to 8 p.m. Saturday at 55 E. Richmond St., Westmont. The event is free. For more information, visit wpd4fun.org or call 630-969-8080.

rolls, flatbreads, salads, sandwiches, entrees and desserts. The culinary team is led by Executive Chef Geoff Silverwood.

Recently enjoying a business lunch was Steve Potts of St. Charles, who praised the mac and cheese, as well as the turkey burger stuffed with brie and apple and topped with baby arugula and roasted tomato.

“The food is wonderful,” he says.

“I like the environment, and great service. Can’t wait to come back.”

Entertainment is offered most Fridays, and during Bears games, chicken wings are free with a beverage purchase.

To create Trademark Tavern, the interior of the one-time Magnum’s steakhouse was completely redone.

ITEM Beer-battered cheese curds with Cajun aioli PRICE $8

A long, sleekly contemporary bar is the focal point of the room with rich stone and wood detail. It’s flanked by private dining areas, including one with a table that seats 14 that’s ideal for groups.

“We’ve had everything from business lunches to baby showers, rehearsal dinners and … birthdays there,” says Mandy Lewandowski.

The private rooms offer audiovisual amenities, and the two larger spaces seat up to 40 or 100, respectively.

Trademark Tavern brings 100 jobs to the area, and Mandy Lewandowski says she appreciates all the support shown by the community and chamber of commerce.

Pillowcases brighten kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; hospital stay tal, they find a brightly colored pillowcase selected by a nurse, the foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website explains, noting that nurses have observed the positive emotional impact the simple item can have on a hospitalized child. The pillowcase personalizes their bed during treatment, and they take it home when they leave.

The first recipient hospital will be Central DuPage. The goal is to put 100 pillowcases in the storage room at CDH so nurses will have plenty to choose from for their incoming patients.

This weekâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volunteer opportunity: Case for Caring DO IT Erinn Hutkin, editor (630) 427-6253 ehutkin@shawmedia.com

Thanks to suburban family ties, the Californiabased Calliope Foundation charity recently launched a project to help cheer up children who are being treated for cancer at Central DuPage Hospital in Winfield.

The foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Case for Caring is collecting pillowcases with light-hearted, fun designs. They can be dropped off at Wool and Company, a knitting and crochet shop in St. Charles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know so many of you love to sew, so there is a great way you can join Bonnie Kellogg of Fix-a-Stitch; she has wanted to do something for pediatric oncology patients,â&#x20AC;? Wool and Company owner Lesley Edmondson writes on her website.

She says the drive will continue on an ongoing basis, and invites everyone to sew pillowcases for the project or donate purchased ones.

Kellogg, a member of Calliope Foundationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s volunteer board of directors, was inspired to create the project by her niece, a registered nurse working in pediatric oncology at Central DuPage Hospital.

This month, Edmondson is also collecting handmade scarves for the Heartstrings Scarves project, which will deliver them to girls in treatment facilities

for eating disorders. The program was started by someone who was helped through treatment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She (knew) how much comfort it would be â&#x20AC;Ś to get things that people had made,â&#x20AC;? says Edmondson, who compares a scarf to comfort from a hug. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve just supported her ever since, and our customers have been amazing. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so nice that people are so thoughtful at this time of the year.â&#x20AC;?

Glen Ellyn graphic designer helps

deck the halls of the White House L

ike many locals, Cindy Kiple spent time this season arranging bows and ornaments around the house for Christmas.

But this year, it wasn’t her house that she spent time decorating.

The 28-year Glen Ellyn resident who works as art director at Westmont’s InterVarsity Press was selected as a volunteer to help decorate the White House for the holidays.

Late last month, Kiple traveled to Washington, D.C. to work with fellow volunteers to spruce up the president’s residence for the season. Recently, she talked about what it was like to help decorate one of the most famous residences in the nation.

How did you get involved with decorating the White House?

I got involved as a volunteer by applying through the White House website (www.whitehouse.com,) and was selected. My sister was also selected, as well as two friends of mine. My sister, Shari Koenes, is an interior designers. I am a graphic designer.

What happened during the trip?

We flew to Washington on Thanksgiving day. The work began the next day with all the volunteers working in a warehouse wiring and rewiring ornaments, making different decorations and packing everything up according to the rooms they would be used in. We worked in teams, assigned to different rooms in the house. My team was assigned to the West Wing, so we worked on the West Wing entrance, the West Wing lobby, the vice president’s office, the Cabinet room, the Roosevelt room, the first lady’s office and the Oval Office. Unfortunately, photos are not allowed in the West Wing and we were closely watched by security at all times.

What was your favorite part of the experience?

After working the first day in the warehouse, the next day we started work at the White House. We worked for four days decorating all the rooms we were assigned to. At times, we helped some of the teams in the public rooms as well. It was amazing to see all the activity with all the teams working in the different rooms and watching the designs take shape.

Is there a favorite story you'd like to share from the trip?

On Wednesday, Nov. 28, there was a reception in the White House for all the volunteers. It was so exciting to see all the decorations in place and the house looking beautiful for Christmas. The first lady was there to thank us all. It was a special and magical evening.

It’s hard to choose a favorite part. It was all so amazing. I think working in the Oval Office was so

awesome just because of where we were. In fact, we were sitting on the floor of the Oval Office, making bows and preparing ornaments and we would suddenly say "Oh my gosh! I'm sitting on the floor in the office of the president of the United States!" It was surreal.

The first family’s dog, Bo, was wandering around the house, which was fun to see. He seemed unimpressed with all of us. He let us pet him, but then he moved on.

Were you able to meet the president?

We didn't see President Obama while we were there.

But it was a thrill to see Mrs. Obama at the reception.

The whole experience was a once in a lifetime opportunity that I will never forget.

Unexpected honors Former Mustang Williams wins prestigious national award ahead of All-American Bowl this weekend

By JASON ROSSI jrossi@shawmedia.com

Gagliardi Trophy winner Scottie Williams will play in the All-American Bowl this weekend at the Metrodome in Minnesota. Submitted photo

Ever humble, Elmhurst College running back Scottie Williams is always looking to deflect praise to his teammates, especially the offensive lineman that block for him.

But there was no hiding from the spotlight last Wednesday when the Downers Grove South graduate won the Gagliardi Trophy, which honors an NCAA Division III football player for excellence in football, academics and community service. Williams is the first Elmhurst player to earn the prestigious award.

“It came as a pretty big surprise,” Williams said. “Going there and looking at the other guys, I didn’t think I was going to win it because it was so wide open.

“It feels great. It’s just starting to set in just how big it is.”

Williams went back to visit his former Williams' coaches at Downers South on Monday, Elmhurst which just hammered home one important element to his success as a football records player.

Single-season rushing “The thing this award shows is that yards: 2,046 I’ve been surrounded by great people all Single-season rushing my life,” Williams said. “It encompasses TDs: 22 more than just what you do as an athlete, Career rushing yards: it’s your grades and what you do in the 5,203 community.”

Career rushing TDs: 50 Williams said the highlight of his trip Career points scored: to Salem, Virg. for the award ceremony 332 wasn’t winning the award but meeting the other nine finalists.

“Just knowing that the other guys are trying to better themselves through the classroom and community, I just feel like there should be more athletes like that,” he said.

Even in a season in which he set some major Elmhurst records on the field and helped the Bluejays to a conference title and second-round playoff berth, Williams never was focused on off-the-field accolades.

“I didn’t really pay attention about my stats during the season,” he said. “I just felt like anytime I touched the ball, I just wanted to do anything to help my team.

“We were such a tight group. This is the first year that it felt like everybody was on board with the vision of coach (Tim) Lester. There wasn’t one person who didn’t believe that we were going to win each week.”

Elmhurst’s season is over but Williams still has the All-American Bowl at the Metrodome in Minnesota this weekend. He will be joined there by one of his blockers, offensive lineman Charlie Homoky. It is likely to be Williams’ last football game as a player, but after he is done working toward his degree in product and sports marketing, he could make a return to the sidelines.

“If they (Elmhurst) needed me to help out and coach running backs or anything, I’d definitely come back and help out a team and a program that has been so good to me,” Williams said. “The thought of coaching is not that far-fetched.”

Former local high school stars gear up for college football bowl games.

Local football talent brings college bowl season home LITTLE CAESARS BOWL Teams: Central Michigan (6-6) vs. Western Kentucky (7-5) Area players: Central Michigan Name Pos. H.S. Titus Davis WR Wheaton W. South Ryan Oruche DB Downers Grove South Kickoff: 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Dec. 26 Location: Ford Field, Detroit, Mich.

TV: ESPN What to watch: Western Kentucky makes its first-ever appearance in a bowl game after becoming a full FBS member in 2009 while Central Michigan returns to one after a two-year absence.

This matchup could turn into a shootout with each offense averaging nearly 30 points. On the flip side, CMU Ryan Oruche yielded over 33 points per game while WKU gave up nearly 26 points per contest.

One player to keep an eye on is former Wheaton Warrenville South wide receiver Titus Davis, who continues to excel at the collegiate level. He was selected as the team’s Offensive Co-Player of the Year while also garnering All-MAC second-team honors. The sophomore tops the team with 860 receiving yards and eight touchdowns on 43 receptions, with one a 92-yarder.

Downers Grove South grad Ryan Oruche, a redshirt freshman, has also seen playing time on special teams.

Bowling Green kicker Anthony Farinella, Downers Grove South. Submitted photo by BGSU athletics

Washington, D.C. TV: ESPN What to watch: In a battle between two mid-majors, Bowling Green of the Mid-American Conference should be ready to face San Jose State of the WAC. The Falcons opened the season at Florida (a 2714 loss) and played Virigina Tech and Kent State, which Jamel Martin played in the MAC title game, along the way.

Three local players grace the Falcons’ roster, though Greg Hohenstein is taking a redshirt season and has not played. Anthony Samuel and John Pettigrew handle the majority of the rushing duties, though Jamel Martin Anthony Farienella has rushed for 209 yards in seven games and has 19 yards receiving.

Anthony Farinella handles kickoff duties for Bowling Green, averaging 58.3 yards with seven touchbacks this season.

What to watch: The Bearcats enter the Belk Bowl in turmoil after coach Butch Jones recently accepted the vacant position at Tennessee. Defensive line coach Steve Stripling will coach the bowl game.

Cincinnati will travel to Charlotte to play Duke, one of the surprises of the season. The Blue Devils are playing in a bowl game for the first time in 18 years and staying in state for it.

Montini product Franklin Bruscianelli followed his father’s footsteps by playing for Cincinnati, but he hasn’t seen the field yet.

Collin Watkins OL Hinsdale Central David Reisner K South Elgin (Bartlett) Kickoff: 3 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 29 Location: AT&T Park, San Francisco TV: ESPN2, ESPN3 What to watch: The scoreboard should light up plenty of times in this contest with both Arizona State and Navy featuring strong offensive units. The Sun Devils averaged over 36 points per game this fall while

the Midshipmen boast the No. 6 running game in the country.

Two local players, junior Collin Watkins and freshman David Reisner, are on the Navy roster but neither have seen time this season.

Watkins played in two games as a sophomore and one as a freshman. Reisner is listed second on the depth chart at the kicker position.

BUFFALO WILD WINGS BOWL Teams: Michigan State (6-6) vs. TCU (7-5) Area players: Michigan State Name Pos. H.S. Jack Allen OL Hinsdale Central Dan Conroy K Wheaton W. South Kickoff: 9:15 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 29 Location: Sun Devil Stadium, Tempe, Ariz.

TV: ESPN, ESPN3 What to watch: This matchup features a pair of teams that had high aspirations coming into the 2012 season but fell short of those expectations.

Points should be at a premium with Michigan State and TCU both ranked in the top 20 in the nation in defense.

CAPITAL ONE BOWL Teams: Georgia (11-2) vs. Nebraska (10-3) Area player: Nebraska Name Pos. H.S. Jordan Westerkamp WR Montini (Lombard) Kickoff: Noon Tuesday, Jan. 1 Location: Florida Citrus Bowl, Orlando TV: ABC What to watch: Jordan Westerkamp is redshirting for Nebraska, but the New Year’s bowl game carries plenty of national intrigue. Both teams are looking to rebound after losing conference title games.

The Cornhuskers are coming off an embarrassing 70-31 loss to Wisconsin in the Big Ten Championship game and Georgia lost a nailbiter to Alabama, 32-28, to lose out on a spot in the BCS National Championship game.

The Capital One Bowl is one of seven bowls featuring a matchup between 10-game winners.

OUTBACK BOWL Teams: South Carolina (10-2) vs. Michigan (8-4) Area player: Michigan Name Pos. H.S. Brad Anlauf WR Hinsdale Central Kickoff: Noon Tuesday, Jan. 1 Location: Raymond James Stadium, Tampa TV: ESPN What to watch: Michigan looks to send off senior quarterback Denard Robinson out with a win. The Wolverines began the year inside the top 10, but were unable to match those expectations.

South Carolina also was a preseason top-10 team, but a pair of losses to LSU and Florida sent the Gamecocks to a Florida New Year’s bowl for the second year in a row after winning the Capital One Bowl last season.

Junior quarterback Connor Shaw has been a threat, even after the loss of star running back Marcus Lattimore to a gruesome knee injury on Oct. 27.

TV: ESPN What to watch: On paper, this matchup would seem to favor Stanford though Wisconsin is coming off an impressive lopsided victory over Nebraska in the Big Ten title game. An important matchup to watch is the Badgers rungame, which is ranked just outside of the top 10 in the country, against a Cardinal defense that is No. 3 against the run.

SUGAR BOWL Teams: Florida (11-1) vs. Louisville (10-2) Area players: Florida Name Pos. H.S. Antonio Morrison LB Bolingbrook Area players: Louisville Jarel McGriff-Culver RB Downers Grove North Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 2 Location: Mercedes-Benz Superdome, New Orleans TV: ESPN What to watch: It will be a battle of strengths in this BCS clash as a Louisville offense that scored 30 or more points in seven games faces off against a Florida defense that allowed just one opponent to score more than 20 points.

A true freshman, Antonio Jarel Morrison has played in all 12 McGriff-Culver games for the Gators, recording 31 tackles (24 solo), ranking eighth on the team in total tackles. He also has two tackles for loss and one sack.

Jarel McGriff-Culver has played in all 12 games for Louisville, primarily as a special teams player, and has registered eight Antonio Morrison tackles (five solo), including two for losses of 13 yards.

BCS CHAMPIONSHIP GAME Teams: Notre Dame (12-0) vs. Alabama (12-1) Area players: Notre Dame Name Pos. H.S. Scott Daly LS Downers South Joe Romano CB Fenwick Chris Watt OL Glenbard West Kickoff: 7:30 p.m. Monday, Jan. 7 Location: Sun Life Stadium, Miami Gardens, Fla. TV: ESPN What to watch: A monster matchup between two of the most prominent programs in the country will decide the national championship. Along with being a ratings bonanza, this game features two stingy defensive units with both Notre Dame and Alabama allowing just over 10 points per game. Ultimately, the contest could be decided by Scott Daly turnovers and which offense can capitalize on their opportunities.

Playing a prominent role again upfront for the Irish is former Glenbard West standout Chris Watt, who is in his senior season. The 6-foot-3, 310-pounder is a part of a unit that has helped Notre Dame rush for an average of over 200 yards per game.

Freshman Scott Daly, a Downers Grove South product, is listed second on the depth chart at the long snapper position while Fenwick grad Joe Romano is also on the roster.

Cummings had a technical fall and major decision to start his tourney, then won 4-2 in the semifinals and 5-4 over Belleville West’s Mech Spraggins in the championship match.

Mike Gastaldello (152) and Nick Bonomo (160) turned in fifth-place finishes while Pat Walker (103) and Edwin Phillips (285) both finished sixth.

DOWNERS GROVE SOUTH Mike Hobbs suffered a quarterfinal defeat but then went 4-0 in the backdraw to take home third place at 285 pounds at Hinsdale Central’s Rex Whitlatch tournament.

After being defeated, Hobbs was dominant on his run to third place.

Except for a 1-0 overtime win in the backdraw semifinal, he had a 5-0 decision, a fall at 15 seconds and a fall at 1:41 in the third-place bout.

After advancing to the 160 semis, Alex Anaya also made it to the thirdplace mat and finished fourth.

Hobbs and Anaya helped the Mustangs score 98 points and finish 10th (out of 24 teams).

Robert Barry (sixth at 220), Jon Nugent (seventh at 126), Rob Gagala (seventh at 182), Sam Patula (seventh at 195), and RJ Hickok (eighth at 145) earned topeight finishes.

WESTMONT The Sentinels split their duals Friday at St. Joseph. They fell to the host Chargers 49-33 but topped Immaculate Conception 48-34 in the triangular meet.

Scott Larem, Zack Sedivy, Brandon Goers and David McDermott won two matches.

AUTOMOTIVE AUTO BITS

Costly mistakes Avoiding these common mistakes will help keep your car on the road longer.

Oil change intervals matter: According to ConsumerReports.org, “Under normal driving conditions, most vehicles are designed to go 7,500 miles or more between oil changes.”

Check your owner’s manual for the recommended interval.

My tires look fine: Don’t ignore the air pressure in your tires until they “look like they’re low.” AAA recommends that you check your tire pressure bi-weekly.

Check your coolant: The coolant in your radiator keeps the engine cool while it’s running and can keep the engine block from freezing if you live in an extremely cold climate.

— Brandpoint CAR Q&A

Dash cluster Q: I own a 2002 Buick Century with 80,000 miles. The shift indicator and odometer stopped illuminating. I went to the dealer and they said I need to replace the dash cluster at a cost of $500. Is there any other solution?

A: We remove and send out the dash clusters to a company that rebuilds them for a third of what GM charges. There may be a local company that also can rebuild the dash.

REVIEW

The ATS is Cadillac’s ‘roads scholar’ T

he new ATS would be a huge shock if we hadn’t already been conditioned by its bigger brother, the CTS. Both of these talented rear-wheeldrive sedans are the result of Cadillac’s having contracted Nurburgring Syndrome. The ‘Ring is that famously complex 12.94mile road-racing course deep in the woods of eastern Germany where manufacturers refine their performance cars. With bumps, hills, 73 corners and straights long enough to let the big dogs run close to 200 mph, the ‘Ring is much more like an ultimate country road than a modern racetrack laid out for TV coverage.

Carmakers use the ‘Ring as a field laboratory, a place to see whether the computer simulations are correct. A few years ago, even Cadillac began flogging its development mules around those 73 corners and 13 miles. The first ‘Ring-born Cadillac was the almost-outrageous CTS, which we called the best American-made driver’s car ever. The smaller, lighter, more nimble ATS is better yet.

Cadillac offers the ATS in four styles - Luxury, Performance, Premium and standard - with a 202horsepower 4-cylnder engine, a 272-horsepower turbocharged 4-cylinder or a V6 rated at 321 horsepower. A standard ATS starts at $34,000. Our test car, an all-wheel-drive V-6 Luxury with $3,000 in options atop an already well-

Leapfroggressive than any 3-Series ging traffic is easy and feels

unhurried. The ride is beautifully controlled and comfortable, with precise turn-in and flat, neutral cornering. There are three suspension modes - Touring, Sport, Winter - but it’s hard to tell them apart, especially as Cadillac’s Magnetic Ride Control automatically adapts the dampers to new blacktop or old potholes.

Dead-stable in a straight line, the ATS can change direction like a cutting horse.

The steering is taut and perfectly weighted at any speed.

An ATS owner with a season’s pass to the Nurburgring (about $1,800 for unlimited laps on public days) might order the available high-performance Brembo brakes, but the stock anchors are more than powerful enough for normal, even heavy-duty road use.

Dynamically, then, the ATS is a star, an all-around player that could hardly be less like your daddy’s Caddy.

(Let’s not even mention the vile, hideous mid-’80s Cimarron, the company’s only previous stab at a small car.)

What about refinement and creature comforts?

The back seats are a bit tight, but everything else is very nearly outstanding, with only hints of oldschool gaudiness.

If you think you’re busy this time of year, imagine how busy the first lady of holiday cheer can be. Not only does she help the big guy get ready for Christmas, but she makes sure everyone in the North Pole has a memorable holiday season. From hosting parties to keeping the elves happy and healthy, this joyful time of year is also her busiest.

For a holiday season filled with joy and laughter, Mrs. Claus shared her favorite ways to make lasting memories with your little ones.

Letters to Santa: Santa loves receiving letters from children.

Encouraging your kids to write to Santa provides a great opportunity to teach them how to spell, compose written text and allows them to practice handwriting. For younger kids who haven’t started reading or writing, encourage them to draw pictures, instead.

Leave something special: Making a snack for Santa with your little helpers offers an extra opportunity to spend time together creating memories that will last a lifetime. Think beyond the cookie tray and personalize your treats just for him.

Holiday cheer: Make decorating the house a fun event for the whole family. Engage your kids in holiday crafts to display on the mantle and make sure everyone has ornaments to hang on the tree.

Rudolph roadmap: Make sure Santa and his reindeer can find your house. Sprinkle a mixture of oats and glitter on your front yard to help guide them right to your home - even if it gets a little foggy.

Flu season etiquette

Out of sight Keep young ones from getting into medicines, vitamins

— Brandpoint NEW RESEARCH

By Family Features

Coffee-cancer death link?

In a recent survey from the University of Michigan C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital, nearly one out of every four grandparents said they store prescription medicines in easy-access places, including daily-dose boxes that children can easily open, and 18 percent said they store over-thecounter medicines in easily accessible spots.

Annually, more than 60,000 children 5 or younger are treated in emergency departments for accidental ingestion of household medicines, according to Dan Budnitz, M.D., M.P.H., director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s Medication Safety Program.

In partnership with the CDC’s PROTECT Initiative, the Consumer Healthcare Products Association Educational Foundation created the Up and Away and Out of Sight educational program to help parents, grandparents and caregivers understand how to best store and safeguard the medicines they use so young children cannot access them.

The following tips and resources can help to make sure your grandchildren are always protected: ■ Keep all medicines and vitamins in a high cabinet or other place inaccessible to your grandchildren.

A study by the American Cancer Society has found that people who drink four or more cups of caffeinated coffee have half the risk of dying of throat or mouth cancer than people who drink less or no coffee have.

Researchers believe that the antioxidants and polyphenols found in coffee, not the caffeine, reduce the growth and development of mouth and throat cancers. The biggest risk factors for developing these cancers are tobacco and alcohol use, but HPV infection has become a greater risk factor in the past 30 years.

In a press statement, lead study author Janet Hildebrand cautions, “We are not recommending people all drink four cups of coffee a day. This is just a little bit of good news for those of us who enjoy coffee.”

The study found that the link between drinking decaf coffee and dying of throat or mouth cancer was insignificant and the link for tea was non-existant.

FAMILY FEATURES

Keep purses, bags or coats that have medicines or vitamins in them out of their reach and sight.

■ Remember to never leave medicines or vitamins out on a table, countertop or bedside table where your grandchildren could reach them - always make sure the caps are locked and put them away every time they are used.

■ Set a daily reminder to take your medicines and vitamins on your refrigerator or a location you check on a daily ■

basis, since they will be safely stored out of sight.

■ Program the national Poison Help number, 1-800-2221222, along with other emergency contact numbers into your home and cell phones, so they are available in case of an emergency.

For more information and resources, visit www.UpandAway.org.

Explaining medicine safety to children Families take medicines and vitamins to feel well or stay

well. However, any kind of medicine or vitamin can cause harm if taken in the wrong way or by the wrong person, even medicine bought without a prescription. It is important for parents, grandparents and caregivers to teach children about medicine safety to avoid accidental ingestions: ■ Talk to children about what medicine is and why you must be the one to give it to them.

■ Never tell children medicine is candy to get them to take it, even if your child does not like to take his or her medicine.

HEALTH ❃

❃

The Emily Post Institute offers the following etiquette tips to manage common situations where the flu virus might be spread from one person to another: n Share space, not the flu: Covering sneezes and coughs is a good habit all year.

The flu virus can spread up to six feet away from coughing, sneezing or even just talking. n Know when to take a sick day: The flu is highly contagious.

Knowing the symptoms of flu versus a cold is important so you know when to see a doctor.

Remember the acronym F.A.C.T.S. to recognize if you might have the flu (Fever, Aches, Chills, Tiredness with Sudden Onset). n In tight quarters: Consider saying, “I can see you’re not feeling well — would you mind covering your mouth when you cough?

Thanks.” Most people when prompted are eager to show good manners and do the right thing.

THE GAUGE Your Weekly Mortgage News & Updates

Mortgage Rates Ease Slightly, Remain Near Record Low MCLEAN, Va., Dec. 13, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Freddie Mac (OTC: FMCC) today released the results of its Primary Mortgage Market Survey® (PMMS®), showing fixed mortgage rates easing slightly and remaining near record lows to keep homebuyer affordability high and attractive to those looking to refinance.

News Facts 30-year fixed-rate mortgage (FRM) averaged 3.32 percent with an average 0.7 point for the week ending December 13, 2012, down from last week when it averaged 3.34 percent. Last year at this time, the 30-year FRM averaged 3.94 percent.

15-year FRM this week averaged 2.66 percent with an average 0.6 point, down from last week when it averaged 2.67 percent. A year ago at this time, the 15-year FRM averaged 3.21 percent.

5-year Treasury-indexed hybrid adjustable-rate mortgage (ARM) averaged 2.70 percent this week with an average 0.6 point, up from last week when it

averaged 2.69 percent. A year ago, the 5-year ARM averaged 2.86 percent.

1-year Treasury-indexed ARM averaged 2.53 percent this week with an average 0.5 point, down from last week when it averaged 2.55. At this time last year, the 1-year ARM averaged 2.81 percent.

Average commitment rates should be reported along with average fees and points to reflect the total upfront cost of obtaining the mortgage. Visit the following links for Regional and National Mortgage Rate Details and Definitions. Borrowers may still pay closing costs which are not included in the survey.

Quotes Attributed to Frank Nothaft, vice president and chief economist, Freddie Mac. “Mortgage rates held relatively steady following the November employment report. Although 146,000 jobs were created, above the market consensus forecast of 85,000, revisions subtracted 49,000 workers over the September and October period. The unem-

ployment rate fell from 7.9 to 7.7 percent. However, in its December 12 monetary policy statement, the Federal Reserve (Fed) noted that this rate remains elevated and modified the statement to tie any increases to its target rate to the unemployment rate falling below 6.5 percent. The latest Fed central-tendency forecast is for unemployment to be between 7.4 and 7.7 percent in the fourth quarter of 2013 and between 6.8 and 7.3 percent by late 2014.”

Get the latest information from Freddie Mac’s Office of the Chief Economist on Twitter:@FreddieMac Freddie Mac was established by Congress in 1970 to provide liquidity, stability and affordability to the nation’s residential mortgage markets. Freddie Mac supports communities across the nation by providing mortgage capital to lenders. Today Freddie Mac is making home possible for one in four homebuyers and is one of the largest sources of financing for multifamily housing.
