Hills, Orland Park (east of<br />

Anyone six months of age<br />

And while Zach said he<br />
had great Scout leaders<br />
and mentors throughout the<br />
years — including Dawn<br />
Michalek, Michelle Moos<br />
and Fred Fleischmann — he<br />
admitted there was occasional<br />
doubt as to whether<br />
he would reach Eagle Scout.<br />
“There was [doubt] because<br />
of the time associated<br />
with being in Scouts,” he<br />
said. “It was really just the<br />
time conflicting with other<br />
things. I swim and play<br />
water polo at Andrew, so I<br />
need to balance those with<br />
Boy Scouts.”<br />
Even though he anticipates<br />
receiving the rank of<br />
Eagle Scout by the end of<br />
the year — his project still<br />
needs to get final approval<br />
of a roof drain ($16,430),<br />
new computer equipment<br />
($34,425) and improvements<br />
to the women’s locker<br />
room ($100,000).<br />
Replacing the locker<br />
room doors is a major goal<br />
for the staff, according to<br />
McCarthy.<br />
“Replacing the locker<br />
room doors, from the pool to<br />
the locker rooms, is the first<br />
step in getting that place<br />
under control, environmentally,”<br />
McCarthy said. “The<br />
doors are propped open<br />
constantly, because with<br />
the senior citizens there<br />
[have] many wheelchairs<br />
and walkers. As a result, the<br />
at high risk of developing<br />
complications like pneumonia<br />
if they catch the flu.<br />
These high-risk individuals<br />
include the following.<br />
• Those with medical<br />
condition like asthma, diabetes<br />
and chronic lung disease<br />
or those who live with<br />
or care for individuals with<br />
these medical conditions<br />
• Pregnant women<br />
• People 65 years and older<br />

from the Eagle Scout review<br />
board — Zach has no intention<br />
of stopping the balancing<br />
act. He said he would<br />
like to remain in Troop 911<br />
until his 18 birthday and<br />
then serve as a mentor to the<br />
younger Scouts.<br />
“Scouting has given me<br />
so much,” he said. “I really<br />
want to stay involved in the<br />
troop and help others.”<br />
Dectron, [the indoor pool<br />
dehumidifier], is working<br />
overtime to dehumidify the<br />
locker rooms when it has its<br />
own HVAC. It also causes<br />
deterioration in the locker<br />
rooms, due to the humidity<br />
and the chlorine.”<br />
La Margo said an open<br />
house at the center Oct. 5<br />
led to 49 new members.<br />
Goals for fiscal year 2017<br />
include increasing overall<br />
utilization to 266,000 annual<br />
visits and memberships to<br />
3,859. Another goal will be<br />
the redesign and rebranding<br />
of the health center’s website<br />
and marketing materials.
