Cultural Park committee presents favorable findings Ad hoc group offers three potential designs, noise pollution studies

By JYLLIAN ROACH and ROBERT J. LIFKA Staff Reporters

About 50 Forest Parkers attended Monday night’s village board meeting to hear Ralph DiFebo’s ad hoc committee

present their findings on the proposed Cultural Park.

For about 35 minutes, five speakers shared their research on noise levels, design, estimated cost and more.

The concept is to convert the village-owned property at the Altenheim off of Madison Street into an art and

performance space.

Though Mayor Anthony Calderone made it clear the council would not make a decision yet, he said he is appreciative See CULTURAL PARK on page 4

Most Forest Parkers, based on an unscientific sample, disagree with President Trump’s decision to rescind the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program, which could see some 800,000 young adults nationwide become eligible for deportation beginning in March.

As you would expect from Forest Park residents, 85 percent of whom voted for Hillary Clinton last year, the majority of responses received by the Review were critical of the president’s decision.

Twenty years later, public hoops still an exciting prospect

B

ack in 1997, I wrote about what I saw as the village’s most pressing problem: the need for an indoor recreation

center.

“Having an indoor recreation center would address a problem facing many of our Forest Park pre-teens and teens,” I said. “It would give them something to do during the long winter months.”

“I asked a group of responsible, mature Forest Park teens what they did for entertainment in our village. They told me their principal activity was ‘walking around.’ Basically, they walk around looking for someone to be home, something to do, someplace to eat.

‘Walking around’ was one step above ‘standing around,’ which they would do on street corners. This indicates there was no destination worth walking to for these teen-agers.

“When I was in high school, just after the last glaciers retreated, I hung out with a group in the Bridgeport neighborhood of Chicago, who happened to be the top students in my high school. They were not stay-at-home bookworms. They went out on school nights. Their social life centered on the local recreation center, where they

could play basketball, etc. The center brought the whole neighborhood together.”

Since I wrote those words 20 years ago, much has changed.

I still see teens wandering the streets, but it’s not as prevalent as it used to be. Today, it’s more likely they’re indoors videogaming or gazing at screens. I don’t see them standing on the street corners anymore because we installed benches where they can sit. Sometimes, I see a teen dribbling a basketball and it pains me to think there’s virtually no place in town to shoot hoops.

That is why it’s so gratifying to see the new Family Recreation Center rising at Circle & Harrison. It will feature a regulation basketball court, which can also be used for half-court games and volleyball. The park district has worked patiently on this project for seven years.

They finally secured the funding from the EPA and the state to make the dream a reality.

I’m thrilled about the project but personally wish it had been ready when my kids were teens. They used to go to the River Forest Recreation Center to play ball, but that program became limited to residents. They used to play in the alley on baskets mounted on garage roofs, but those

Food for Fines program will run in April as well as September Staff Reporter

The Forest Park Public Library kicked off its annual Food for Fines drive with an additional announcement: The week-long event will now happen twice a year.

Alicia Hammond, community engagement manager for the library, said the drive will take place in April as well as September beginning in 2018.

“We’re doing it to coincide with National Library Week,” she said. “We’re hoping people will be interested in not only donating food, but also maybe clearing up their fines.”

The drive collects about 500-600 non-perishable food items and toiletry items annually; each item is worth $1 in late fees.

Hammond said those items are delivered to the Forest Park Food pantry at the Howard Mohr Community Center.

Denise Murray, special events coordinator for the community center, said the food pan-

try serves around 60-80 families each month, though that number surges to around 200 near the holidays and in the summer. ProPro grams like Food for Fines and regular donations from local busibusi nesses and community members are what have kept the shelves of the panpan try filled for more than 40 years “This community rere ally has embraced the needs of its neighbors and continues to,” Murray said.

came down. They tried portable hoops, but it just wasn’t the same.

The Park had outdoor basketball courts for a few years. They did their best to monitor play, but arguments, fights and general rowdiness ended that experiment. The basketball courts were replaced by the skate park, which draws a more sedate clientele. I like the skate park but was disappointed that we couldn’t make the basketball courts work.

I’m hoping The Park can prevent rowdiness on the indoor courts. I used to monitor pick-up games at a school gym and it was no easy task. I had to fight a weekly battle to break up full-court games, so that the kids on the sidelines could play half-court games. I also had to break up arguments and near-fights.

Assistant Park Director Steve Thomas said they are still tweaking their plans for how to oversee open gym at the facility. They are considering issuing passes to players, or charging a daily fee. There definitely will be supervision and monitoring of the players.

My dream for Forest Park is finally coming true. We deserve a recreation facility like the towns around us. I only wish it had been finished in 1997. I could still sink 3-pointers back then.

This is the first year the library has ac accepted toiletries, but she said there is al always a special need for those neces necessity items.

Murray added that com community members can do donate to the food pantry year-round, and the community center accepts almost any item, from cloth clothing to furniture and makes sure it finds a good home. Cash dona donations can also be made.

She noted the money goes into a signature account that is only for the food pantry.

Forest Park Public Li Library will continue to clear fines in exchange for non-perishable items through Sept. 17.

CULTURAL PARK

Committee completes work from page 1 of the work the committee has done so far.

“This town is blessed to have people with different areas of expertise willing to donate their time,” Calderone said. “We wouldn’t be where we are today without the work of Ralph DiFebo and the ad hoc committee.”

DiFebo said the committee has been working diligently for six months to apply for two grants that would help with the next steps in making the Cultural Park dream a reality.

The National Parks Service’s Rivers, Trails, and Conservation Assistance program would offer logistical support. The other grant comes from the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning. The village council submitted the grant applications DiFebo’s team completed and are expecting to hear about those grants in October.

From there, DeFibo said it’s up to the village board to move the plan forward. A feasibility study would determine whether Cultural Park can be created to suit the needs of the community while adhering to a reasonable budget. After that, funding would need to be secured, and a final design drafted.

Kim Rostello, a member of the ad hoc committee, said the group had reached the limits of its power.

“We’re a group of citizens who are really excited about this because we love Forest Park,” she said. “But because we can’t make decisions, the KIM ROSTELLO village should have someone Ad Hoc committee member on staff who can actually make those kinds of decisions and follow up on the grants and those kinds of things to make sure this actually gets done.”

Forest Park Cultural Park would be a park for people who tended toward the artistic rather than the athletic, she added.

“There’s something for everybody at this park,” Rostello said.

“It has a performing arts stage. There’s all kinds of stuff that can be done there.”

While the village board won’t be able to move forward with any plans until they hear about the grant applications, Commissioner Daniel Novak suggested that a standing item about the project be added to each village council meeting agenda from now on.

Mediterranean eatery approved for downtown space Council vote paves the way for Falafel at 7314 Madison St.

By ROBERT J. LIFKA Contributing Reporter

A new restaurant is coming to Madison Street following Forest Park Village Council action Monday.

Falafel Restaurant will open 7314 Madison after the village council unanimously approved a conditional use ordinance for a dinein restaurant. The location formerly housed American Art Works and is also the original home of Brown Cow Ice Cream Parlor.

Steve Glinke, director of public health and safety, said the restaurant is expected to serve Mediterranean cuisine. Although the ordinance cited a dine-in restaurant, he said carryouts are also expected to be available.

The Forest Park restaurant will be the second for owner Ibrahim Freah, who also runs North Avenue Falafel in Elmwood Park. The menu for the Elmwood Park location offers a wide variety of food, including salads, sandwiches and its namesake, which is a deep-fried ball, doughnut or patty made from ground chickpeas, fava beans or both that is commonly served inside pita bread.

Glinke said conditional use approval is required for all restaurants. He also said no residents appeared at the Zoning Board of Appeals hearing on the request.

“We’re really happy with the mix,” Glinke said, noting the many Irish and Italian restaurants already on Madison. “Informal feedback we’ve received is that people are excited it’s coming.”

Grant approved, building inspector hired In other action, the village council approved applying for a police safety grant and allowing the hiring of a new building inspector.

By unanimous vote, the village council approved and ratified the mayor’s signature on an Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) public safety grant application.

Police Chief Tom Aftanas said the $18,548.28 grant, if received, would be used to fund traffic safety checks that are generally conducted around major holidays, such as the one held recently on Labor Day. He said the grant would be used to pay for one officer to conduct checks at random locations for a four-hour shift, primarily enforcing seat belt and cellphone use ordinances and looking for intoxicated drivers.

Aftanas said they have received the IDOT grant annually for years.

Also by unanimous vote, the village council authorized waiving the hiring freeze for Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund employees in order to hire a building inspector.

Glinke explained that Bill Plum, the department’s full-time senior inspector, has announced his intention to retire Oct. 15

after 11 years with the department. He will be replaced by another full-time employee, Glinke said.

He said he is hopeful to have Plum’s replacement hired before the retirement, but he noted that union rules require that the job be posted internally before it is advertised externally.

Glinke’s also hoping for some overlap that would allow the new inspector to shadow

Plum for a while before he leaves.

If Plum leaves before his replacement is hired, Glinke would be the only inspector in the department. Glinke said he would perform fieldwork until the position is filled, adding Plum has indicated a willingness to stay on a little longer if needed.

Glinke said Plum is a longtime Forest Park resident, which he said was an advantage in his position.

“We're really happy with the mix. Informal feedback we've received is that people are excited it’s coming.”

FOOT CLINIC

Do you have diabetes?

I

f you do, you should know how important foot care is. Over time, diabetics risk developing foot complications. When the nerves are damaged from chronic high blood sugar, feet can become numb or painful with burning or tingling. This is called diabetic neuropathy. When diabetes affects the arteries, circulation to the legs and feet may be compromised. Either of these conditions may lead to serious problems including ulceration, even amputation.

The key to prevention is early diagnosis of diabetes, and regular foot exams from a podiatrist. Diabetics who receive regular foot care, including paring of calluses and debridement of thick fungal toenails, are almost four times less likely to undergo an

amputation than those who do not seek treatment.

Medicare and some private insurances cover 1 pair of diabetic shoes and 3 pair of protective insoles each calendar year. Dr. Lambert has been a supplier of diabetic shoes since 2002. The shoes come in 30 different styles each for men and women.

These include boots, lightweight colorful athletic shoes, and dress shoes. Even patients who are not diabetic love the look and comfort of the footwear. Diabetic socks, slippers and compression hosiery are also available.

Protecting your feet with appropriate footgear is an important aspect of preventive care for diabetics.

PMSA teacher apologizes for anti-DACA Facebook post ‘They should go back,’ faculty member wrote, of juvenile undocumented immigrants

By MICHAEL ROMAIN Staff Reporter

A Proviso Math and Science Academy teacher has apologized for a Facebook post in which he said undocumented immigrants who came to the U.S. as children should “go back.” The post ignited a furious response from current and former students at the Forest Park school.

When reached by phone on Tuesday, math teacher Dan Pellegrini confirmed that he posted the comment to Facebook, but he apologized before reversing his position.

“Yes that’s me,” Pellegrini said, before explaining what prompted the comment. “One of my friend’s dad was killed by an undocumented worker. I got annoyed and ticked off. I wanted to delete the post but at the time it was too late. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to offend anyone. I actually don’t agree with [DACA recipients] being sent back.”

The online protest sparked on Sept. 8, when Lynette Aguirre, who graduated from PMSA in 2010, posted to Facebook a screenshot of a letter addressed to D209 administrators, including Superintendent Jesse Rodriguez, signed by the Class of 2010.

“Attached is a snipet [sic] of current teacher Mr. Dan Pellegrini expressing his thoughts on the current removal of DACA,” the letter states, referencing Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals, a policy implemented in 2012 by President Barack Obama and recently rescinded by President Donald Trump.

The program offers a two-year period of relief from deportation that can be renewed, in addition to the opportunity to obtain a work permit, to people who immigrated to

DACA REACTIONS

Critical of the President from page 1 American citizen.

“I believe the recent statement by the president on DACA is a direct contradiction to my understanding of what the United States of America stands for,” he said. “In my humble opinion, this has nothing to do with national security but simply to tarnish the American Dream. I am having a really hard time finding the rationale for phasing out DACA, to squeeze out those who are already making a positive impact on the American economy.”

Manuel Oropeza, who lives in a Forest Park condo, didn’t hold back on how he felt.

“What I think Trump wants to do is give the racists a reason to protest,” he said, “and thus show there is no support for immigration reform.”

Don Glassi, who does maintenance work for several Forest Park condo buildings, was also cynical about the president’s motives.

“I think he’s on a mission to rescind anything that a very intelligent — unlike himself — most recent former president put in place,” he said. “Doesn’t matter what it is.”

Clark Craig, a staff member at the Progress Center for Independent Living, sent out an email blast the day Attorney Jeff Sessions read the announcement about the president’s decision for the media. The email invited people with disabilities to participate in a protest rally in Chicago. When asked why the disability community would get involved in

the United States illegally as minors. DACA recipients are often referred to as “Dreamers.”

Aguirre also posted to Facebook a screenshot of the original comment that was posted on Facebook by Pellegrini and written in response to another comment.

“Pells I normally agree with you but a lot of pmsa kids are dreamers,” wrote a Facebook user whose account name is blacked out. “I can’t stand to watch them not have a future here. They didn’t have a voice in their parents decision to bring them [sic].”

“That’s too bad,” Pellegrini allegedly writes in response.

“They should go back.”

The teacher’s comments were written around the same time that the school district sent out a letter to families expressing the district’s support of DACA students who may attend district schools, and providing information about the program.

Proviso Township High School District 209 officials had not spoken with Pellegrini as of Tuesday morning, according to Cynthia Moreno, communications director for the district.

At least three students claimed that Pellegrini, who apparently had befriended many of his former students on Facebook, had by Sunday blocked most PMSA alumni that he had once been linked to on the social media platform.

The open letter to District 209 administrators that Aguirre posted on Sept. 8 had generated 80 reactions, 74 shares and 66 comments by Sept 12.

Proviso Township High School District 209 officials said in a statement released on Monday that they were “aware of the social media posting being circulated with allegations

of a staff member at D209.

“The district has taken the necessary steps to address this matter. Please know that our schools welcome all students and families regardless of their citizenship, immigration status, or background. I want to assure you that PTHS D209’s faculty and staff is committed to the physical safety and emotion well-being of all students.”

The reactions from former and current PMSA students to Pellegrini’s comment ranged the gamut — from students defending the teacher’s right to express his opinions to those who condemned the teacher.

Although the overwhelming majority of those who posted comments on Aguirre’s post were in opposition to Pellegrini’s statements and/or his public conduct, some students were supportive of the teacher, who Aguirre said has been at PMSA since 2009 — when the school opened.

Mercedes Jackson, whose Facebook post indicates that she currently attends PMSA, was among the few students in support of Pellegrini.

“Y’all bashing him about his opinion doesn’t make y’all any better,” Jackson wrote. “All this is so unnecessary. As a PMSA student now, Pellegrini is doing his job. Very pathetic how you guys are trying to drag his name through the dirt.”

On Sunday, Aguirre said that, while she doesn’t want to see Pellegrini terminated, she felt compelled to speak out against the comment and bring it to the attention of the district.

“I’ve gotten messages current PMSA students who don’t feel welcomed at the school because of these comments,” she said. “I just wanted them to know there are people who will stand up for DACA students.”

the DACA issue, he responded, “First, they, like us, did not choose to be in the situation we are in, and second, if 20 percent of the population in the U.S. has a disability, then a significant percentage of the Dreamers will have one too.”

Louis Cavallo, District 91 superintendent in Forest Park, declared, “Personally, I find this decision deplorable. All families in our community belong in our public schools.

Ending the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program does terrible harm and disrupts our pursuit of these goals. This decision leaves some of our most vulnerable youth in a state of uncertainty and threatens their future. To feel that their lives are of such little value that our leader would gamble on their very existence to push forward an agenda must be a horrible feeling.”

Last year the D91 English Language Learner (ELL) teachers organized an ELL night where representatives and attorneys who work for DACA provided information to parents on their rights and helped them finish applications.

One D91 ELL teacher, Vanessa Reyes, said some immigrant families have told her they are “feeling negative feelings” from other people about being a recent immigrant, regardless of their status, be it work visa or green card. “I have heard from a family,” she said, “who might move back to their homeland despite the years it took them to get their papers in order to come here legally.”

She said there are rumors, which proved to be false, that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials were staked out at the Forest Park mall.

Rev. Leonard Payton, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church, touched on the complexity of the issue when he said, “Some of our members have noted the pickle President Trump and our government are in, and that is, when you set aside the rule of law, no matter how good your motivations, where

does this go? I’m fairly sure my people would be all over the map on this one, as they were in their presidential votes.”

Forest Park resident Tom Reich also tried to see both sides of the issue, saying, “I like that President Trump put it in the hands of Congress to come up with something in the next six months. I believe Trump will support a decent resolution to this problem.”

Reich then mentioned what almost everyone, be they for or against the president’s decision, said: “Personally, it is a very difficult situation as the fault lies with the parents and not the children. It would be nice but unrealistic to determine deportation on an individual basis. A college student or hardworking migrant worker should not be thrown out of our country. But an individual who is just here from the freebies our government gives should go. And how about the people who came here and are now legal citizens? They put in a lot of hard work and sacrifice to become citizens. How do they feel?”

John Conversa, Ferrara’s director of manufacturing in the U.S., looked at the DACA issue first as a private citizen.

“If the government told me I had to leave,” he said, “my question would be, ‘Leave to where? This is home.’ Those affected/protected by DACA were brought to the states when they were 15 years old or younger. They are not the ones who broke the law, merely victims. I do believe illegal immigration is a problem that needs to be addressed, but let’s address those breaking the law vs. those who had little to no control over their upbringing.”

Conversa also looked at Trump’s decision from the perspective of business. “As a business person,” he said, “our hope is to build the economy. If we have a law abiding, hardworking society, then why disrupt it? There is too much hate in the world and hate is never the path to progression.”

Man car-jacked at gunpoint on Elgin A beige 2015 Volvo was carjacked by two suspects on Sept. 7 at 12:23 a.m. in the 900 block of Elgin Avenue.

The victim, a Forest Park man, stated he had been sitting in the running vehicle when a man in dark clothing and a white surgical mask approached the vehicle on the driver’s side.

He revealed a semi-automatic handgun and told the victim to exit the car. A second suspect dressed in similar style and also holding a semi-automatic handgun approached on the passenger side.

The victim said he left his cellphone and wallet on the passenger seat and exited the car. Police followed the car onto I-290, but lost sight of it near the Independence exit.

Armed robbery A man reported an armed robbery just outside the Fellowship Club in the 7000 block of Harrison Street on Sept. 7 at 3:07 p.m.

The victim told officers the suspect blocked his entry into the Fellowship Club, revealed a silver handgun and demanded the victim’s money.

A witness saw the suspect leave a home in the area, and police believe he is a repeat of offender. Officers are obtaining footage from a surveillance camera that captured the incident.

Aggravated battery Police were called to the Forest Park Blue Line stop for an aggravated battery on Sept.

Counterfeit bills used

4 between 8 and 9 a.m.

Transit workers told the responding of officers that a woman was asked to leave the train after she had been spotted kicking a glass window. The woman allegedly responded with racial epithets, threatened to cut the transit employee and then spat on her.

Officers at the scene arrested the suspect and later found what seemed to be a crack pipe on her. The transit employee told police she plans to press charges.

An employee at Happy Chef restaurant, 1215 Harlem Ave., discovered three counterfeit $20 bills had been used to make purchases.

According to the report, three suspects entered and each purchased about $1 worth of items and paid with the fraudulent $20 bills. It was not until after each had received their change and left that employees realized the bills were not legal.

Battery

Wallet thefts

Officers responded to a battery report at Doc Ryan’s, 7432 Madison St. around 3 a.m. on Sept. 10.

A man was accused of giving staff a hard time and refusing to leave the bar. When officers arrived, Doc Ryan’s staff said the man in question had been in an argument with a female customer, yelling at her, calling her homophobic slurs and knocking off her hat.

Officers were able to remove the man without incident.

■ On Sept. 5, a woman reported her wallet stolen at the Walmart, 1300 Desplaines Ave. According to the report, the woman had been stopped between 2:30 and 3 p.m. by an unknown female in her 20s who chatted with her about nothing before the victim moved along.

When she attempted to pay for her items, she discovered her wallet absent from her purse. The wallet had had $7, a medical insurance card and five credit cards within.

The victim reported at one of those credit cards had been used to charge $600 at a nearby Target while she was still in the Wal-Mart.

■ On Sept. 6, a man reported his wallet stolen from his front pants pocket at the CTA Blue Line terminal on Desplaines Avenue. The victim reported that at about 11:10 a.m. he had been approached by a man who offered to sell him a cigarette.

Soon after the brief exchange, the victim discovered his wallet, containing $17, an ID and social security card, missing.

■ On Sept. 7, a woman reported her wallet stolen after she offered a ride to an unknown man who was trying to get to the River Forest Town Center from the 7000 block of Circle Avenue at about 11:15 a.m.

She reported that about 10 minutes after dropping the man off, she noticed her purse open and her wallet gone. The wallet contained about $30, her license and medical insurance card.

Home burglarized A home in the 900 block of Circle Avenue was burglarized while its occupant was on vacation sometime between Sept. 2 and Sept. 5.

Officers reported that unknown offenders pushed a window air conditioner into the home and climbed in after. The offenders took about $1,300 in cash and valuables, a garage door opener and a spare key.

Car Theft A white 2003 Ford Econoline 100 van was reported stolen on Sept. 9 from the 900 block of Hannah Avenue.

The victim stated he had had a large quantity of power and hand tools stored in the van, along with two check books. The vehicle has not yet been recovered.

■ On Sept. 8, a man reported his wallet missing from the Planet Fitness, 7530 Roosevelt Road.

The victim reported he had been working out for almost two hours when he returned to his locker at about 8 p.m. to find the lock cut and his wallet gone. The wallet contained $60, the victim’s ID and a credit card.

The victim also reported that he had checked the trash cans near the Planet Fitness and found another person’s driver’s license and credit cards. Those items were turned over to the police and are waiting to be claimed.

These items were obtained from police reports filed by the Forest Park Police Department, Sept. 2-10, and represent a portion of the incidents to which police responded.

The great motor mystery Son searches for dad’s first car for retirement gift

By JYLLIAN ROACH Staff Reporter

In the 1970s and ’80s, a cherry red 1972 Chevy Nova SS raced the drag strips in Wisconsin. The racecar was driven by former Forest Park police officer George “The Candy Man” Webber and sponsored by the Ferrara Pan Candy Company. After every race, Webber would hand out Ferrara Pan’s signature Lemonhead candies to children in his trophy-winning Nova.

But before its time in the spotlight, the car had been painted silver with black flames and was owned by Larry Edwards, an 18-year-old with a pregnant wife and a stronger need for money than the car he raced in South Chicago. When Webber made him an offer, the father-to-be sold his beloved car and prepared instead for his first child.

That child, Chris Edwards, said he grew up hearing stories of that Nova, which had been his dad’s first car.

“He’d always say, ‘I wish I still had that Nova; it was the best car I ever had,’” Edwards recalled.

Now his dad is one of the head mechanics for United Airlines and just three years

away from retirement. And Edwards said he’s on a mission to find his dad’s old Nova and restore it as a surprise retirement gift for his father.

But that’s no easy task.

“It could be sitting in a junkyard for all I know,” he said. “I don’t have the VIN number, so that’s the hardest part.”

Edwards began the search about three months ago and the cold trail has been tough to follow.

Webber, the Nova’s second owner, died in the ’90s, and Sal Ferrara II, who had approved Ferrara Pan’s sponsorship of the racecar, passed away in 2014.

While a representative for Ferrara Candy Company said no one at the company had information about the car’s whereabouts, they did have a picture of it hanging in the office.

There is little more information about the car’s life after racing. Edwards said he’s learned the Nova was traded for a Camaro

That owner sold it in 1985, but he couldn’t recall any details about the buyer, Edwards said.

“It’s a very, very long shot if I find it. But if I do, I’d like to make it look like it did when my father sold it.”

Edwards said this has so far been a solo mission, but he hopes to find more people who remember the car and have any bit of information that could lead to finding it. He said anyone with morsels of information can send them to edwardschris77@gmail.com.

“My father gave up a lot for me and my brother,” he said. “I hope I can find it.”

St. John, YMCA sign 5-year childcare agreement Before- and after-school care will be provided

By TOM HOLMES Contributing Reporter

St. John Lutheran Church and the West Cook YMCA recently signed a five-year agreement allowing the Y to use space in St. John’s school for before- and after-school programming. The space had been empty for three years.

Rev. Leonard Payton, St. John’s pastor, said the newly formed partnership will enable the Y to use the entire second and third floors of their building including classrooms, the gym, office space and kitchen for the 90 children already registered for what is being called the Y-Kids program. Next June, the Y plans to also utilize the former science room for programming.

The first floor of the school is still available to the church for their own programs.

Phil Jimenez, CEO of West Cook YMCA in Oak Park, said local school superintendents told them pre-school is not needed as much as before- and after-school care for older children.

The Y identified that need in most of the near-west suburbs, and St. John had the space.

One reason for parents’ loyalty, Jimenez said, is that the Y has the only program in the area which allows parents to pick up their children as late as 7 p.m. Parents can drop their children off at the St. John site as early as 7 in the morning.

St. John is not trying to make a lot of money from the relationship.

“It’s not like the revenues from the Y are pouring into the general fund of St. John to support the operation of the church,” said Payton with a smile. “We don’t want to make a profit, but neither can we can we afford to take much of a loss. We want to keep the building in good repair for the well-being of our community.”

Jimenez said using a resource in Forest Park to meet a need that exists in many communities beyond Oak Park is part of a strategy he calls YWOW: Y Without Walls.

District 91 Supt. Louis Cavallo said beforeand after-school child care is not a critical issue in the district. “We have over 100 kids at the elementary level in the park district and Community Center programs,” he noted.

But they are collaborating with the Y on adding summer programing to what is already being offered locally. “The YMCA has reached out to us to assess our needs,” Cavallo said. “I have been working with Mr. Jimenez on providing a high-quality summer program that allows students to receive intervention and enrichment over the summer when school is not in session.”

When the Y reached out to St. John, the congregation was still grieving the closing of their beloved school, which has been in its present location since 1913.

“A big problem for us,” Payton explained,

“is that we reside in a neighborhood that’s very different from when we moved here over a hundred years ago. A lot of the people who move in don’t automatically have a connection to us, so we’re in effect invisible to them.”

The vote, according to Payton, to go ahead with the new commitment was almost unanimous.

The West Cook YMCA board of directors used the summer camps held at St. John for the last two summers as a kind of trial period in which both groups could see if they

would “mix well.”

Both Rev. Payton and Jimenez described the partnership as an example of the amazing things a church and a nonprofit can do when their main desire is to serve the community.

“I am grateful for the work that the YMCA does,” Payton said. I am very glad that we are able to collaborate at this level. This is good for us and for our community. The more of this kind of thing that happens, the better.”

OPINION O U R

V I E W

Cultural Park progress

T

he grand concept of creating a Cultural Park, part performance space, part art installation, all welcoming, reached a high point and a wall on Monday night at a meeting of the village council.

A good-sized and supportive crowd was on hand to hear the formal presentation by the ad hoc committee created by the village to study the feasibility of building a mini-Ravinia on the acres of village-owned land at the Altenheim.

The brainchild of Ralph DiFebo, this concept has been percolating for several years with DiFebo skillfully enlisting support from villagers and village government. That support turned into the formal appointment of this ad hoc group to study design options, costs, noise levels for nearby residents and potential funding sources.

The village board seemed supportive and Mayor Anthony Calderone went out of his way to praise DiFebo and his band of supporters for their good work.

That was the high point.

The wall is that the project is at a standstill until at least next month when those involved are likely to learn if one or both of the two large grants applied for will generate funding for the next steps in planning.

Further, as one committee member plainly stated, at this point there is a committee of citizens who have worked hard. But for Cultural Park to move forward it will need not just money from third-party sources but to be formally ratified by the village as its intended plan and outcome for this vital property.

As the village owns the land, it will soon need to own the plan.

Proviso stands with Dreamers Our Proviso Township high schools could not have been quicker or more forceful in declaring its unconditional support for its students and families caught up in Donald Trump’s needless and heartless attack on Dreamers. In a school district that is now majority Hispanic, the president’s malevolent attack on DACA is of immediate and confounding worry.

In a letter to students, family and community, Supt.

Jesse Rodriguez made explicit the values of inclusion, stability and support that this district will show to each of its students, and, in this cruel moment, most particularly to those young immigrants brought to this country as children by their parents.

The ferocity and the caring of that letter makes us proud to declare Proviso Township as Forest Park’s high school.

However, bold declarations must also be interpreted and acted upon in the everyday life of these schools. And almost immediately following this letter came an intense social media exchange allegedly involving one PMSA teacher posting that all Dreamers should go home. In a school with many students under DACA status, such a declaration from a teacher is troubling. There is also the essential right of free speech to be defended.

Beyond our observation that Facebook can be a lousy and dangerous place to spout political views, we will watch with interest as the superintendent investigates and responds to this personnel matter.

D

Instincts vs. principles

ay before yesterday, Michael Gerson made a comment on the PBS News Hour that rang true to me. He said that President Trump doesn’t have principles.

He has instincts.

Hillary Clinton, in contrast, had principles but her instincts weren’t in tune with where millions of voters were at. She said as much in her new memoir. She more or less admitted that her head was in the right place, but her political correctness prevented her from revealing what she felt.

To put it another way, she sang the right lyrics, but she was enough off key with the melody to not be pleasing to a large segment of the audience she was singing to.

The good thing about being guided by instinct is that you come off as being genuine. To millions of Trump voters, he “told it like it is.” A fact check on many of his candid comments reveals that what he said didn’t match “like it is.” A fact check reveals that many of the lyrics he was singing were at least factually incorrect if not downright lies. But millions loved the tune and the tone of the song he was singing. Check out what Peter, Paul and Mary sang in 1967 (yes, I’m that old): I dig the Mamas and the Papas at “The Trip,” Sunset Strip in L.A. And they got a good thing goin’ When the words don’t get in the way And when they’re really wailing Michelle and Cass are sailin’ Hey! They really nail me to the wall.

Some of the old rock and roll songs that I know by heart and still love to sing, have words that are totally contrary to my values. But they conjure up feelings that are very real inside me, which I try desperately to not reveal in public in my words or behavior.

Some preachers I’ve heard make, to my mind, the most outrageous, theologically-inconsistent, biblicallyinaccurate statements. But the people in the pews grin and clap and say “amen” because the preacher is instinctively resonating with how they feel.

On the other hand, of course, we’ve all been lulled to sleep by speakers who say things that are factual but presented in such a dry way, it’s hard work to even pay attention. I’ve heard preachers like that, too. It’s embarrassing to keep yawning during a sermon, but

sometimes I can’t help it.

So what do we need in our society right now?

Right now, what I see happening is a tilt toward relying on instinct more than principles. And what is needed is for all of us to pay less attention to how we feel and/or what we think and to focus more on character, defined as moral qualities or lack of them, or “how you behave when you think no one is watching.”

The reason character is so important is that I am among those who believe human nature has a dark side as well a good one. Or like some Native Americans say, inside each of us is a good wolf and a bad wolf.

The problem with instincts is that, when we are spontaneous, we have less control over which wolf reveals itself. What “character” does is not put a fact check on our instincts but a check to see if what we happen to be feeling at the moment is in line with the principles we use to guide our lives.

Look at some things David Brooks says in his book, The Road to Character, to see if what he says rings true to the values you hold most deeply: ■■ We can shoot for something higher than happiness.

■■ The climb to success has surrendered to the struggle to deepen the soul.

■■ [The WWII generation’s] first instinct was to remind themselves they were not morally superior to anyone else. Their collective impulse was to warn themselves against pride and self-glorification. They intuitively resisted the natural human tendency toward excessive self-love, a shift from a culture of self-effacement that says, “Nobody’s better than me, but I’m no better than anyone else,” to a culture of self-promotion that says, “Recognize my accomplishments, I’m pretty special.”

Notice that Brooks also uses the word “instinct” but in a very different way. What he means by instincts are values that are cultivated in a moral ecology, if you will, and reveal a solid character instead of an untempered, narcissistic ego.

After watching the Bears game on Sunday, I said to one of my neighbors, “The Bears looked pretty good against a really good team.” To which he responded, “Yeah, but they didn’t win. That’s all that matters.”

After watching Congress spin its wheels for nine years now, I’m willing to declare that how you play the game is more important than winning.

Taxing trash, not citizens We read with great interest the information about the growing budget crisis at our village hall. We would like to offer what we see as a solution, ready to implement to avert the further raising of our taxes, which as always, should be a last resort.

Universal Solid Waste Stickers.

These stickers offer a “pay-as-you go” needed remedy for waste pick-up without having to increase your tax

burden. If you or a neighbor nearby need to dispose of non-hazardous solid waste less than 50 pounds, it would be as simple as just applying a sticker to that item. Need to have a heavy appliance removed? Apply either 2 or 3 stickers to that old item, and it’s good to go.

These could be easily purchased at either our village hall or a grocery or hardware store in town for the

nominal cost of $2-3 apiece.

This is already done almost universally throughout the surrounding suburbs and the state to great tax benefit to those communities who choose to participate.

In the end we all save money. And in doing so, not raise taxes.

Not your average housewalk Coach house tour benefits Pleasant Home Foundation

By LACEY SIKORA

Contributing Reporter

n Sunday, Sept. 24, the Pleasant Home Tour of Homes presents the “Evolution of Oak Park Coach Houses,” a tour of eight local coach houses, each uniquely repurposed for modern use.

The tour will feature eight Oak Park coach

houses transformed into a music studio, party room, art museum, a residence and more. Pleasant Home Foundation Executive Heide Ruehle-May says the tour is all part of the Pleasant Home’s focus for its fundraising housewalks to present one-of-a-kind home experiences in the area.

“A few years back, we made a decision to make our home tour different than all of the

other wonderful tours in Oak Park,” RuehleMay. “We try to focus on special spaces, as we did with our mid-century modern tour in 2014.

The first owner of the Pleasant Home, John Farson, loved his cars, and there used to be a coach house on the property, so we decided to focus on coach houses.”

HOUSEWALK Wide variety from page B1 Ruehle-May notes that all eight of the coach houses are in proximity to the Pleasant Home, 217 Home Ave., and form a few clusters, allowing participants to easily walk between a few houses at a time. She says the selection committee worked to choose a wide variety of coach houses.

“One is newer construction, but on the property of the potentially oldest home in Oak Park, and there was an historic coach house there to begin with,” Ruehle-May said. “We’re excited about [Frank Lloyd Wright’s] Heurtley House. They’ve done an incredible job of using their space.”

Each of the eight coach houses has a dedicated researcher who has studied the architect of the main home, the year the coach house was built and the original use of the coach house.

Oak Park Art League One of the coach houses on the tour is now home to the Oak Park Art League on Chicago Avenue.

Executive Director Julie Carpenter notes that the coach house was designed in 1902 by E.E. Roberts for a large Victorian home built in 1894 by Harry Ryan on Oak Park Avenue.

Carpenter says that the building is large part of the Art League’s identity.

“We’re excited to be included in this tour,” Carpenter said. “I think that the building is really what brands us an arts organization.

I see us as an early 20th-century cornerstone

in the community between the Frank Lloyd Wright Home and Studio and the Ernest Hemingway Home.”

One of Illinois’ oldest arts organizations, the Oak Park Art League was founded with the fundraising help of Grace Hemingway

LOUD AND QUIET: The upper floor of one of the tour’s coach houses (above) has been converted into a full-blown music studio. Tour-goers will also have a chance to see how the owners of the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Heurtley House turned their coach house into a zen retreat (below right). in 1921, and its first exhibit was held at Grace Episcopal Parish Hall in 1925.

In 1924-25, the organization moved to Frank Lloyd Wright’s studio for a few years.

In 1937, retired architect and Art League member E.E. Roberts was asked to adapt the coach house on Chicago Avenue into a new headquarters for the Art League.

Carpenter notes that since Roberts was a painter who used the Art League’s studio space, he was uniquely situated to create a gallery and studio space out of a building originally created to house horses.

“What’s interesting is that he stopped the walls at about eight feet high, so you can actually see what it might be like as a stable,” Carpenter said. “Legend has it that there’s a horse buried under the southeast eave, but that’s just a bit of interesting oral history.”

Carpenter notes that the 96-year-old organization recently formed a partnership with the Oak Park River Forest Garden Club to clean up their yard space in time for the one hundredth anniversary of the Art League.

“It’s called the Avant Gardeners initiative,” Carpenter said. “Together with the Garden Club, we have almost 200 years of combined local history.”

Coach house ‘before’ Alexa Rogals/Staff Photographer

FIXER-UPPER: It’s been years since this 1920s-era coach house on Linden Avenue has served as a residence, but its present owners would like to turn it into a cute Airbnb rental.

On Linden Avenue, Megan Lewis and her husband are sharing their coach house to offer a glimpse into an original style of the

PROVIDED

above-the-garage space. Since moving into their 1920s era house earlier in the year, Lewis says they have been focused on rehabbing the main house, but believe the coach house has major possibilities.

“The coach house has a lot of really charming features” Lewis said. “It’s like a mini version of the main house with the same window details and door trim.”

From their research, they have determined that the coach house has not been inhabited since the 1940s or 1950s, and Lewis says it is in need of major updates.

“From the neighbors, we have heard that all of the owners have had aspirations to rent it out or to use it as an office or a guest house,” she said.

For now, the approximate 500-square-foot space still sports its small kitchen, bath, living area and bedroom sleeping porch, all of the floor plan dating to at least 1932, according to historical listing materials for the house.

Kelly Scott of Divine Consign is staging the rooms for the tour, a refreshing change from the storage space the Lewis family was using it for. Lewis envisions a day the space is a finished Airbnb rental.

“It’s not a bad layout but it needs a whole lot of modernizing,” Lewis said. “It’s fun and whimsical, but it hasn’t had people living in it for 70 years. But, considering that, it’s held its own.”

As she paints over the purple, teal, yellow and red, Lewis says that she and her husband still have plans for the space – someday.

“I grew up a block and a half away and have driven by this house a bajillion times,” Lewis said. “It’s kind of fun to be a steward of this lovely old house. When we bought it, we envisioned doing something exciting with the coach house space.”

YOU’D NEVER GUESS … that inside this cottage-like Oak Park coach house, which is part of the Pleasant Home Foundation’s upcoming tour, is a large pipe organ.

905 South Lombard Ste. 2 Oak Park, IL 60304

Pleasant Home Foundation’s “Evolution of Oak Park Coach Houses” housewalk takes place from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. on Sunday, Sept. 24.

Sign in at the Pleasant Home, 217 Home Ave., Oak Park. Tickets are $45 for the general public or $40 for Pleasant Home Foundation Members and can be purchased the day of the walk or online at www.pleasanthome.org.

Home addresses for the tour will be provided at registration on Sept. 24.

All proceeds benefit the Pleasant Home Foundation, whose mission is to restore and operate the historic Pleasant Home in Oak Park.

This year, the Pleasant Home is partnering with Divvy for the tour, offering participants an easy way to travel between houses.

Participants can use the code PLEASANT to get $2 off a Divvy 24-hour pass, regularly priced at $9.95.

Weather-permitting, each home on the tour will showcase an antique automobile, providing a second reason to get out of your house and enjoy a day viewing someone else’s property.

At the Oak Park Art League stop on the tour, participants are welcome to view an art class in progress. For 96 years, the Oak Park Art League has been offering figure drawing classes, and on the day of the walk, participants are welcome to observe the class that meets from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. in the Art League studio, formerly the carriage house hay loft.

The Residences at Maple Place: Only Two Units Remaining

nly two residences remain available in Oak Park’s newest luxury condominium building, The Residences at Maple Place. You do not want to miss this unique opportunity to customize one of these high-end units into your new home. Nestled in the heart of Oak Park, within walking distance of Trader Joe’s, Starbuck’s, the Lake Theater, FFC Gym, public transportation, restaurants and shopping, The Residences at Maple Place is a LEEDregistered building that offers all the best of an urban suburban lifestyle. With state-of-the-art heating and cooling and fresh air exchangers in each unit, you’ll be living in an extraordinarily quiet and healthy environment.

The two remaining available units offer 1,850- 2,000 square feet, nine foot ceilings, three spacious bedrooms, including a master suite, and two full bathrooms. Luxury designer kitchens, open floor plans, outdoor entertaining space and plenty of storage make these condominiums live like a single-story home. Developer Paul Zimmerman of Altierra Development Group extols the high-end finishes, noting the furniturequality custom cabinets and Bosch appliance upgrades.

Unit 2W’s spacious kitchen features quarter sawn oak cabinets and an upgraded oversized subway tile backsplash. A ninety inch island offers seating for four or more. The great room offers access to a 38 by 8 foot terrace, accented with Brazilian hardwood screening. With water and gas hookups and great sun exposure, the terrace provides additional living space that is perfect for dining and entertaining.

Upstairs, Unit 3W offers its own unique floor plan, with a similar great room and attention to detail. As of press time, there is still time to customize Unit 3W, so act quickly to meet with Altierra’s on-staff designers to choose your preferred kitchen and bathroom finishes and floor stain.

Just weeks after moving in, current resident Kathy M. of Maple Place is singing the building’s praises.

“Like so many others, we are retired empty nesters looking for a walk-to-town home with easy access to Chicago. Oak Park is centrally located and has a vibrant downtown area. We love the shopping, dining, and downtown activities. Maple Place is situated adjacent to the beautiful Frank Lloyd Wright Historic District, is walking distance to two grocery stores as

well as downtown, and has Peterson’s Ice Cream, dry cleaners, hair salon, hardware store and pizza steps away. We have been walking and cycling the gorgeous surrounding neighborhoods every day since moving here. We have already met the other residents and everyone seems so friendly, which is great in such a small community.”

In keeping with Maple Place’s proximity to the historic Frank Lloyd Wright Home & Studio, the building showcases a stunning mosaic work by artist Anna Soltys, an original, oneof-a-kind piece, inspired by the green elements of the building. The developers, both Oak Park residents, felt strongly about providing this public artwork to

beautify the neighborhood, soften the façade at pedestrian level and make the building a destination unto itself.

Maple Place is offered by Gloor Realty Oak Park. Pricing for the remaining two units starts at $669,900. In addition to including one indoor, heated parking space per unit, Maple Place also offers an additional space for $15,000 or a two and one half car private garage for $25,000.

For more information on Maple Place, visit www.mapleplaceop.com or call Jan Raspatello or Rich Gloor at 708.524.1100 to schedule a tour of the available units.

Open Houses are scheduled on Sundays from noon to 2 p.m. Check local listings for dates.

Getting Down To Business

with the Oak Park - River Forest Chamber of Commerce September 11th, 2017

Poaster is Ready to Help You Shop Local and Save

I

By CATHY YEN, Executive Director

t’s here! Poaster is ready for prime time.

This Friday, residents will start seeing advertisements on social media, email and print for this new “shop local” app.

For a resident consumer, Poaster allows you to connect with local businesses and save money. Using an app on your smartphone, the Poaster website or even through Facebook, you’ll see deals and specials from your local businesses, reminding you of all our superhero business owners have to offer. And, the app will let you book a service, reserve a table at a restaurant or even purchase items from local businesses right from your phone. With no extra fee.

For a business owner, Poaster is a sales and marketing tool designed specifically for small business. It puts the power of social media marketing, e-Commerce and Groupon-like deals and specials right in the hand of the independent owner. Best yet, it is free to use (the Chamber pays a fee on behalf of its members).

The Chamber has had fun working closely with a tech start-up, providing input on the design and functionality of a tool we think will really help small business. We are fortunate to be the “beta” community for Poaster. Founder and CEO Chris Shaw lives in Oak Park and feels certain that if anywhere there is a community supportive of our local, independent businesses, it is here. He envisions Poaster supporting thriving downtowns on “Main Streets” all over the United States and he has a growth strategy to get there.

For now, however, he is laser-focused on

making Poaster work here.

This rare opportunity to be the first community using Poaster means we still stumble over a bug here, or a needed fix there. Right now we are confident that Poaster works, and works well. But if you encounter something that needs improvement, let us know! Chris and his team are eager to incorporate your feedback.

So when you see Poaster in your news feed next week, please, take a minute to check it out. Download the app, watch it on Facebook and use it to support our local businesses. We think you’ll like it.
