Savoring every last bite – and drink 

Glenview’s dining 

options gather 

under one roof 

Alan P. Henry 

Freelance Reporter 

The full range of the 

Glenview dining experience 

was on sweet and 

savory display on Thursday, 

April 26, at the Glenview 

Chamber of Commerce’s 

sixth annual Bites 

& Brews mini-food and 

drink fest. 

The event featured food 

and beer samplings from 

more than two dozen 

area restaurants, caterers 

and craft beer purveyors, 

drawing 350 guests to The 

Glen Club. 

“There are so many different 

choices and varieties 

to chose from there, 

and there are great independent 

places that you are 

not going to get anywhere 

else than Glenview,” said 

Chamber President Karen 

Patterson. 

“Glenview is a very underestimated 

dining destination,” 

said Tom Lamson, 

general manager of 

Wildfire. “The community 

overall has a lot of hidden 

gems and this event definitely 

showcases that.” 

Wildfire offered samples 

of its popular chopped 

salad, high plains bison 

meatballs and Key lime 

pie. 

Chris Maloyan — coowner, 

along with his 

wife, Susie, of Second 

City Prime Steak and Seafood 

— said the business 

has become very popular 

with Glenview residents. 

“It is just a young community 

with a lot of families 

that entertain,” he said. 

“They like to have people 

around on weekends.” 

Anne Hagerty, of Glenview’s Marriott Chicago North 

Shore, tries a bite from Gusto Restaurant. 

Second City is a home 

delivery service of fine 

steaks and seafood. 

“Call us up and we 

bring the truck right to 

your door,” Susie Maloyan 

said. 

They offered samples of 

prime strip steak with their 

seasonings, and skirt steak 

with their marinade. 

The fest offered restaurants 

a good opportunity 

to see and be seen, said 

Kellie Allgauer, of Allgauer’s 

Restaurant. 

“Exposure is key to 

business no matter who 

you are or where you are. 

The more we get our name 

out there, the better,” she 

said. 

Grilled pepper shrimp 

and deconstructed bruschetta 

on toast points were 

among her offerings. 

“We love doing local 

events and being part of 

the community,” said Susie 

Breden, general manager 

of Jolanne’s, which 

featured crab cakes and an 

ahi poke bowl. 

Becky Boston, a bartender 

at The Curragh, 

touted The Glen, as well 

as The Curragh, as a destination. 

“It is a great place, with 

a bunch of shops and 

walkways, and it is beautiful 

location to sit down, 

grab a bite to eat and have 

a beer,” she said. The restaurant’s 

famous Reuben 

rolls were a big hit at the 

fest. 

Another favorite was 

the sampling of octopus 

from Greek restaurant Plateia. 

Owner Agatha Papadatos 

emphasized that the 

restaurant only uses Spanish 

octopus because of its 

superior taste. 

Another was Gail’s 

Brownies, which offered 

seven different kinds of 

brownies. 

“We ship anywhere in 

the country, and a lot of 

our customers are on the 

North Shore,” said owner 

Jack Eisenberg. 

Other treats included 

barbecue chicken sandwiches 

and sticky toffee 

pudding from Johnny’s 

Kitchen & Tap; pork 

sandwiches plus mac and 

cheese from JD’s Q and 

Brew; short rib and pastor 

tacos from Cafe El 

Tapatio; and fluffernutter 

cupcakes from Sweet Ali’s 

Gluten Free Bakery.

John and Lynne Rine, of Weiss Ace Hardware, try the food at The Glen Club booth. 

Sounds, Gusto Italiano, 

Corner Bakery, Hackney’s 

on Lake and Heinen’s 

were also represented. 

There were also a large 

variety of beers offered 

by companies that are distributed 

by Joseph Mullarkey 

Distributors, such 

as Granite City, Macushla 

Brewing Co., Ten Ninety 

Brewing Company, Midnight 

Pig Beer, Sketchbook 

Brewing Company 

and 2 Fools Cider. 

Bites & Brews is supported 

by sponsors Wintrust 

(Glenview and 

Northview Bank and 

Trust) and Joseph Mullarkey 

Distributors.

Police Reports 

Stolen vehicle discovered with broken window in Chicago 

Fenway 

The Tracey family 

Hello, my name is Fenway 

and I have been a resident 

of Glenview for 9 years. 

Living in Glenview has given me the taste of the 

good life: Goode and Fresh pizza, Dairy Bar ice 

cream cones, Joe’s donuts and Five Guys French 

fries (please don’t tell my vet). 

My family is part of the heart of a good life, 

especially my two-legged human sister. Even though 

she laughs at me when I do a “boot scoot” in the 

grass or carry a stick larger than my body, I love her 

so much. When it storms outside, she comforts me, 

and when it is sunny, I watch her swing in our yard. 

Yet, the best thing about my sister is getting all her 

leftovers after meal time. 

HELP! The Glenview Lantern is in search of more pets. To

From The Village 

The Glen work update 

The second phase of 

The Glen Street Resurfacing 

project began on Monday, 

April 30. During this 

phase, major roadways 

that were not resurfaced in 

2016 will be repaved with 

two inches of asphalt. The 

work also includes replacing 

damaged sections of 

concrete curb and gutter, 

as well as installing crosswalks. 

The work will begin 

on streets within The 

Glen Town Center. About 

40 parking spaces on the 

west side of Tower Drive 

between Chestnut Avenue 

and Navy Boulevard will 

be unavailable. The businesses 

and parking garages 

in the area will remain 

open during this time. 

Pilot surveying project 

This week, the Village 

began preparations for a 

pilot surveying project, 

which will involve LiDAR 

— light detection and 

ranging. 

This remote sensing 

method uses light in the 

form of a pulsed laser to 

survey above-ground infrastructure. 

The pilot area 

in the Swainwood neighborhood 

is bounded by E. 

Lake Avenue on the north, 

the Metra railroad tracks 

on the east, Glenview 

Road on the south and 

Shermer Road on the west.

Neil Milbert 


Superintendent Dr. Mike 

Riggle provided members 

of the Glenbrook High 

Schools District 225 Board 

of Education with a comprehensive 

list of safety 

and security recommendations 

for Glenbrook North 

and Glenbrook South at 

the board’s Monday, April 

23 meeting. 

Riggle began by saying, 

“I want the community to 

recognize this is an ongoing 

effort,” but, he pointed 

out, “there is an urgency” 

in the aftermath of the Feb. 

14 shootings at Marjory 

Stoneman High School in 

Parkland, Fla. that took 17 

lives. 

“There will be the same 

protocols and the same 

training with students 

at Glenbrook North and 

Glenbrook South, with 

the grammar school districts 

in the area and with 

the Glenview and Northbrook 

police and fire departments,” 

he continued. 

“We’ve got a lot of things 

that are happening. To 

share things in detail (with 

the public) would in itself 

be a compromise in our security.” 

Riggle told the board the 

District 225 administration 

is making the following 

recommendations to be 

implemented prior to the 

2018-19 school year: 

• that a new districtlevel 

position be added to 

oversee all safety and security 

efforts for all district 

facilities 

• that adequate security 

coverage be maintained 

for after-school and weekend 

events, a measure 

that was approved at the 

board’s March 23 meeting 

and implemented April 2 

• that all district employees 

be required to wear 

identification badges 

• that visitors during the 

school day be required 

to wear an identification 

badge that differs from 

those worn by district employees 

• that a task force be established 

to carefully study 

improvements that can be 

made to district facilities 

and develop a three-year 

strategic plan for facility 

improvements 

• that the volume and 

quality of safety signage 

at all district facilities be 

improved 

• that the existing telephone 

system in all district 

facilities be optimized and 

that staff training be conducted 

• that all administrators, 

administrative assistants 

and staff who supervise 

student movement carry 

two-way radios 

• that the mass communication 

system be explored 

and expanded to 

allow text messaging to 

students during emergencies 

In addition, the administration 

is asking for the establishment 

of a Building 

Safety Advisory Committee 

made up of a cross-section 

of school personnel, 

teachers, parents, students 

and first-responders from 

the villages that serve the 

schools to review and discuss 

various aspects of 

school safety and security. 

Board elects leadership 

structure 

Skip Shein was elected 

to serve his ninth consecutive 

one-year term as president 

of the Board of Education; 

Bruce Doughty was 

re-elected and will serve 

his second term as vicepresident; 

and Dr. Rosanne 

Williamson was elected to 

serve her 10th consecutive 

term as secretary. 

All three ran unopposed 

and each candidate was 

elected by unanimous 

vote. 

GBN student shares 

powerful story 

During the Glenbrook 

Stories segment of the 

meeting, board members 

got to know Michelle Rogoff, 

a charismatic GBN 

senior, who was one of the 

founders of the school’s 

Women in Business Club 

and is active in the incubator 

program DECA, formerly 

known as Distributive 

Education Club of 

America. 

Rogoff was diagnosed 

with Hodgkin’s lymphoma 

prior to her sophomore 

year, but that didn’t daunt 

her. She started Michelle’s 

March as a fundraiser for 

the Leukemia and Lymphoma 

Society and it 

raised more than $50,000; 

and in the aftermath of 

her recovery, she counsels 

cancer patients. 

Rogoff said her life experiences 

have helped her 

realize “what’s really important 

in life.” She wants 

to continue to find ways to 

empower her female peers 

in business classes and 

hopes to someday run a 

company and spearhead a 

nonprofit organization. 

She joined the board 

meeting via FaceTime 

from Atlanta, where she 

was pitching her business 

and philanthropic ideas 

at the April 21-24 DECA 

International Career Development 

Conference. 

DECA is an international 

association of high school 

and college students — as 

well as teachers of marketing, 

management and entrepreneurship 

in business, 

hospitality and marketing 

sales, and service — that 

prepares students for careers 

in these endeavors. 

Northbrook/Glenview D30 Board of Education 

Wescott Principal, Maple student celebrated for achievements 

Todd Marver 

Freelancer Reporter 

The Northbrook/Glenview 

School District 30 

Board meeting on Thursday, 

April 26, was full of 

celebration. 

Wescott School Principal 

Dr. Chris Brown was 

recognized for earning 

his doctorate degree, and 

the Maple School debate 

and science teams were 

recognized for recent 

successes. 

“There’s some cake over 

to the side,” said Superintendent 

Dr. Brian Wegley. 

“That’s to celebrate the 

accomplishment of one of 

our colleagues. We are celebrating 

the culmination 

of a whole lot of work by 

Dr. Chris Brown, who has 

just successfully defended 

his 195-page dissertation 

after completing all of his 

doctorate work, and he 

defended that yesterday 

morning and successfully 

did so.” 

Brown also celebrated 

his accomplishment with 

Wescott students earlier in 

the day. 

“Today, we got to parade 

him through the wonderful 

Wescott School as his students 

chanted ‘Dr. Brown’ 

and gave him high fives,” 

Wegley said. 

The Maple debate team, 

coached by Christina Shin, 

was recognized after several 

members excelled at 

the North Shore Middle 

School Debate League 

tournament at Wilmette 

Junior High School earlier 

in the year. 

The team includes Yoonsol 

Cho, Moses Chua, Sky 

Elliot, Alex Gabriel, Ishrak 

Jalaluddin, Kelly Kim, 

Darshan Kommanapalli, 

Theresa Lee, Ryan Lim, 

Kalen Mehta, Jack Miller, 

Tom Mitchell, Irene Park, 

Sammy Schwartzberg, 

Catherine Tang and Nathan 

Yoon. 

“My students have been 

so inspiring to me,” Shin 

said. “From seeing them 

at their first debate tournament, 

they were nervous 

and they were definitely 

novices. I remember coming 

out of these tournaments, 

they would then tell 

me how they loved it. Getting 

that trophy or medal, 

they wanted to come back 

and they wanted to get better.” 

Shin added that students 

learn life skills from competing 

on the debate team. 

The debate team recognition 

was personal for 

board president Chuck 

Gitles. His son, Brandon 

Gitles, who is now a senior 

at Glenbrook South, 

helped start the team as a 

student at Maple. 

“My son, who graduated 

from Maple four years ago, 

was one of the instigators 

of the Maple debate team 

and went to (Maple principal) 

Dr. (Nate) Carter and 

said, ‘Hey, I’ve got an idea 

for a debate team,’” Chuck 

Gitles said. 

Brandon Gitles has been 

a member of the GBS debate 

team for the last four 

years, and his father challenged 

the current Maple 

debaters to follow in the 

footsteps of his son. 

“He is right now in 

Lexington, Ky., at what’s 

called Tournament of 

Champions,” Chuck Gitles 

said. “He is coaching some 

of the kids who are there. I 

challenge some of the people 

who are on the current 

debate team to be at the 

Tournament of Champions 

in the next several years 

and get one step ahead of 

my son and actually be he 

people debating.”

Glenview Park Board 

Bond referendum pushes next 

budget to nearly $41 million 

NEIL MILBERT 


The Glenview Park District 

will have approximately 

$41 million to work 

with in the upcoming fiscal 

year. 

During its Thursday, 

April 26 meeting, the board 

unanimously approved a 

$40,573,543 budget for the 

fiscal year beginning May 

1. 

This amount represents 

an overall increase of 21.5 

percent from the prior 

year’s budget, attributable 

to the March 20 passage of 

a $17 million bond referendum 

to fund the renovation 

of the 45-year-old Glenview 

Ice Center and improvements 

at The Grove. 

Deputy Executive Director 

Katie Skibbe, who 

made the presentation to 

the board, said the budget 

designates approximately 

$26 million for operations, 

$9.6 million for capital 

projects and $4.7 million 

for debt repayment. 

The approved budget 

earmarks $2.6 million for 

the ice center during the 

fiscal year, $650,000 for 

improvements to the entrance 

to The Grove that 

address safety and security 

issues, and $500,000 to The 

Grove’s Interpretive Center. 

According to Skibbe, 

at the conclusion of the fiscal 

year on April 30, 2019, 

the Park District will have 

reserves of $49,976,541, 

about $28 million of which 

is related to funds from the 

referendum. 

Three staff recommendations 

related to the ice 

center renovation were also 

approved at the meeting: 

• an agreement with Williams 

Architects for basis 

architectural, engineering 

and design 

• an agreement with W.B. 

Olson to serve as construction 

manager at the rink 

• an agreement with The 

AT Group to act as the Park 

District’s representative 

and provide negotiation 

and management services 

“The construction manager 

drives the project and 

steers it to a successful conclusion,” 

said Lori Lovell, 

superintendent of Special 

Facilities. “We won’t finalize 

a guaranteed maximum 

price until we are further 

along in the process, but regardless 

of what happens to 

steel prices, we are locked 

in.” 

Board adopts new strategic 

plan and mission statement 

The board adopted the 

draft of the fiscal year 

2018-2021 Park District 

strategic plan, as well as 

the updated mission statement, 

vision and guiding 

principles, submitted by 

Jim Warnstedt, superintendent 

of Park and Facility 

Services. 

Although they are closely 

connected, there are differences 

between the comprehensive 

master plan and 

the strategic plan. 

Warnstedt explained that 

“the comprehensive master 

plan focuses on the physical 

assets and services of 

the organization while the 

strategic plan focuses more 

on the leadership structure 

of the organization, including 

mission and vision, 

guiding principles and 

strategic direction of the 

agency.” 

Warnstedt said the goal 

of the new strategic plan 

is to revise the vision, 

mission and values of the 

District; connect to the 

District’s comprehensive 

master plan; align the organization 

with a common vision; 

reinforce the culture, 

demonstrated through values; 

create action toward 

accomplishment, including 

measurement of progress; 

and strengthen organizational 

competencies related 

to strategic thinking. 

Board, staff members 

report on state-wide 

conference 

Earlier in the week the 

of April 22, the Park District 

sent a delegation of 

board members and staff 

members to the Illinois Association 

of Park Districts 

Legislative Reception/ 

Conference in Springfield. 

Board Member Bill 

Casey, who was part the 

delegation, lauded the association’s 

Open Space 

Lands Acquisition and Development 

grant program, 

which provides matching 

funds to park districts and 

other local agencies to acquire 

open space and to 

develop and improve recreational 

facilities. 

The program is funded 

by non-general revenue 

fund dollars through a portion 

of the real-estate transfer 

tax. Of every dollar collected 

through this tax, 35 

cents goes to the grant, 15 

cents goes to the natural 

areas acquisition fund and 

50 cents goes into a fund 

for affordable housing. Because 

the program has its 

own funding source, the 

State’s operating budget is 

not impacted by the grants.

North Shore residents send 300K seed packets to South Africa 

Alan P. Henry 


More than 3,500 North 

Shore adults and students 

opened their hearts 

to the poor in late April, 

working in shifts at Willow 

Creek North Shore 

to pack tomato seeds that 

will be shipped to impoverished 

communities in 

South Africa. 

The packets will be 

distributed by local 

churches in the country 

to provide thousands 

of families with fresh 

food and even a possible 

source of income generated 

from surplus produce 

sales. 

All told, participants at 

the Glenview church filled 

roughly 300,000 packets 

and helped the seven campuses 

of Willow Creek 

meet its goal of producing 

1.2 million packets. An 

individual packing seeds 

for two hours provided 

food for approximately 60 

families. 

“Everyone here is 

looking to do something 

meaningful,” said Jackie 

Herron-Whitfield, compassion 

and justice pastor. 

“Most people want to help 

people, and this is a way 

to do it.” 

This is the eighth year 

Willow Creek has sponsored 

the Celebration of 

Hope seed packing program, 

working in partnership 

with a network of 

churches in South Africa, 

Zambia, Malawi, Zimbabwe 

and El Salvador 

that distribute the seeds 

to the vulnerable in their 

communities. The different 

campuses pack 

seeds for tomatoes, cabbage, 

kale, spinach and 

onions. 

A delegation from Willow 


recently visited South Africa 

to observe firsthand

seeds on April 20 at Willow Creek North Shore. Photos

how the program has been 

working. 

“I love the fact that we 

are doing something sustainable 

so year after year 

we get to see the gardens 

from last years seeds,” Jan 

Mostrol said. 

She noted that many 

of the families have 

even been able to sell 

their products in local 

markets. 

“I get energy. I get hope. 

I get inspiration,” Mostrol 

said of the program. 

For many, participating 

in the event was a family 

affair. 

“It’s a family activity 

we do all together. It’s 

all about helping others,” 

said Jim Shanahan, who 

was packing seeds with 

his wife, Jen, and children 

Ryan and Nia. 

Willow Creek purchases 

the tomato seeds 

from an American company 

and covers the cost 

of transportation by ship 

through its global ministry 

budget and a special 

offering. 

The churches that receive 

the seeds distribute 

them to community and 

family gardens, and also 

plant some of the seeds in 

their own gardens to help 

feed some of South Africa’s 

many orphans. 

“I come from a poor 

neighborhood and I’ve 

been in poor situations 

before,” said Desy Desharnais, 

who was packing 

seeds with his wife, 

Anna. “This is what God 

wants us to do.” 

“This is something 

good to do,” Kathy Howe 

said. “God loves for us to 

share what we have with 

others.” 

Volunteers worked in 

two-hour shifts, averaging 

roughly 400 people from 

Thursday-Saturday, April 

19-21. Packers placed a 

“smidge” (roughly 40) tomato 

seeds in paper packets. 

Runners took them to 

baggers, who placed five 

packets into a family pack 

and taped it shut. Boxers 

then placed 300 family 

packs in a box for shipping. 

Groups of students from 

Christian Heritage Academy, 

New Trier, Loyola, 

North Shore Country Day, 

Glenbrook North and 

Glenbrook South participated 

in the event. Also 

packing seeds were a 

wide range of area Scouts, 

businesses, extended families, 

members of other 

churches and various social 

groups looking to do 

good. 

Amy Mikal, executive 

pastor, was thrilled 

that roughly 40 percent 

of the participants were 

Desy and Anna Desharnais pitch in. 

not members of the Willow 


congregation, a fact she 

attributes to a growing 

Amy Mikal, executive pastor of Willow Creek North 

Shore, joins the fun. 

public awareness of Willow 

Creek’s presence in 

Glenview. 

“Now that we are here, 

we are able to engage the 

community, not just the 

Willow Creek community,” 

she said.

THE WILMETTE BEACON 

Pearce to fill vacant seat 

on Wilmette Village Board 

A Wilmette Village 

Board trustee seat has been 

vacant for the last two 

months after Trustee Steve 

Leonard resigned at the end 

of February. 

But that will soon change 

as Leonard’s replacement 

will be sworn in at the next 

board meeting. Village 

President Bob Bielinski announced 

the appointment 

of former Village Trustee 

George Pearce to the position 

at the Village Board’s 

Tuesday, April 24 meeting. 

The board will vote to approve 

this appointment at 

the Tuesday, May 8 meeting 

and Pearce will be 

sworn in at that time. Upon 

Leonard’s resignation on 

Feb. 24, Bielinski had 60 

days to appoint an individual 

to fill Leonard’s vacancy. 

With that two-month period 

now coming to an end, Bielinski 

appointed Pearce to 

fill Leonard’s vacancy. 

“We are short one trustee 

right now, which will be 

remedied at the next meeting,” 

Bielinski said. “I’m 

pleased to announce at this 

meeting my appointment of 

Mr. Pearce. The board will 

be asked to approve that 

appointment at our next 

meeting and Mr. Pearce 

will be seated at our next 

meeting.” 

Pearce has served the 

Village government in 

the following capacities: 

Zoning Board of Appeals 

from 1994 to 1997, Village 

Board Trustee from 1997- 

2005 and Board of Police 

and Fire Commissioners 

from 2005 to 2014. In addition 

to his service with 

the Village government, 

Pearce is an active member 

of the community.

THE NORTHBROOK TOWER 

Village honors Exact Blade 

with inaugural Green 

Business Award 

Just a few days after 

Earth Day and Arbor Day 

festivities took place at the 

Village Green, the Northbrook 

Village Board recognized 

a local business 

with the Village’s inaugural 

Green Business Award. 

The award is intended to 

be given to a business that 

has taken steps to reduce its 

impact on the environment. 

Exact Blade, located at 813 

Waukegan Road in Northbrook, 

which offers cutlery 

and knife sharpening services, 

took home the award 

for its green efforts. 

Exact Blade received 

a unanimous nod for the 

award from the Environmental 

Quality Commission, 

which reviewed applications 

for the honor during 

its March meeting. 

The board passed a 

resolution recognizing the 

Northbrook business for the 

award during its Tuesday, 

April 24 regular meeting. 

“Following a review of 

the applications, the Commission 

unanimously recommended 

Exact Blade, 

Inc. as the winner of the 

2018 Green Business 

Award for its recycling efforts 

of paper, the reuse 

of iron and steel byproduct 

materials in gardening 

from their knife sharpening 

operations, and their reuse 

of office furnishings,” the 

resolution said. 

“These actions have diverted 

waste from landfills 

and serve as a good example 

of ways to reduce a 

business’ impact on the environment.”

THE HIGHLAND PARK LANDMARK 

Water in City buildings 

meets lead level standard 

After 11 fixtures in 

Highland Park City-owned 

buildings testing above 

federal standards for lead 

in July 2017, the City has 

finally mitigated lead levels 

in its buildings. 

According to a press 

release, the City has mitigated 

the lead levels in all 

buildings that registered 

high lead levels in potable 

water. 

“The City is dedicated to 

taking this proactive step 

on an annual basis to protect 

the health and safety 

of our residents. This sets 

a high standard for others 

who provide water to the 

public,” Mayor Nancy Rotering 

said in the release. 

“Safe drinking water is essential 

to our health.” 

The use of lead in 

plumbing materials was 

only outlawed in 1986, so 

structures built before then 

could contain lead piping.

Wescott first-graders explore the wonderful world of dogs 

Submitted by District 30 

Wescott School firstgraders 

performed the 

original musical “Dogs!” 

for the last time with Bill 

Vaananen. 

The musical premiered 

32 years ago and has been 

a beloved show for many 

classes. Wescott School 

first-graders presented the 

show this year on April 

20. 

Vaananen has served as 

Wescott’s music teacher 

for 37 years and has been 

affectionately called “Mr. 

V” by countless students. 

After the first-graders’ 

performance, he said that 

“today we performed 

our original musical 

‘Dogs!’ for the last time 

at Wescott. We premiered 

the show 32 years ago 

with the third-graders in 

March 1986. Since then, 

we have done ‘Dogs!’ or 

one of its sequels over a 

dozen times — not counting 

summer-school productions 

and other spinoffs. 

The children did a 

Retiring music teacher Bill Vaananen plays the piano. 

wonderful job. Thanks for 

the memories, kids.” 

Principal Chris Brown 

said, “Everyone’s tails 

were wagging this week as 

Wescott’s first-grade students 

treated the students, 

staff and Wescott families 

to one final performance of 

‘Dogs!’ Thank you to our 

first-grade teachers Ashley 

Grosshuesch, Courtney 

Hoffman, Sharon Latek 

and Sydney Lichten for 

giving production assistance 

and practicing lines 

with the children in class, 

and to physical education 

teacher Roy Grober for his 

production assistance and 

technical setup. 

“We extend a big thank 

you to music teacher Bill 

Vaananen, composer and 

director of ‘Dogs!’ His last 

show with the fifth-graders 

takes place on May 17-18 

and will be titled ‘Finale.’”

Willowbrook first-graders plant memories for the seasons 


Willowbrook School’s 

daffodils were in full 

bloom on April 24 when 

the first-graders planted a 

butterfly garden. 

District 30’s Environmental 

Awareness Committee 

partnered with Rob 

Sulski, of Foot Stone, to 

create the new green space 

at the school. He augured 

holes in the soil in the front 

drive near the flagpole that 

morning, and everything 

was ready for the firstgraders 

to start planting by 

9:30 a.m. 

Fifth-grade teacher 

Heidi Fletcher said, “Our 

first-grade classes were invited 

to plant this butterfly 

garden due to the natural 

connection with their life 

science unit. They rotated 

in and out of the garden in 

20-minute increments between 

10-11 a.m.” 

The schedule was as follows: 

• Aimee Neumann’s 

class — 10-10:20 a.m. 

• Jody Madden’s class 

— 10:20-10:40 a.m. 

• Rachel Rabinowitz’s 

class — 10:40-11 a.m. 

Sulski met with each 

class at the main entrance 

and provided directions 

before planting. Over the 

course of an hour, the 

children planted 256 total 

plants and 25 different 

species, including Michigan 

lily, northern drops, 

red grass, blue-eyed grass, 

purple cornflower, wild 

geranium, prairie phlox, 

blue aster, leadplant and 

shooting star. All the 

plants came from Sulski’s 

own garden, and he will 

return in the fall with another 

250. 

He told the kids that the 

plants will attract butterflies 

and other pollinating 

insects as they grow. 

Learning specialist 

Melanie Roth said, “The 

butterfly garden was a hit. 

Memories last longer than 

one season, and I definitely 

think that applies to the 

butterfly garden project 

that took place today. The 

students loved getting their 

hands dirty and learning 

about the different plants. 

What a great opportunity 

for the students to partner 

with Mother Nature to 

make magic.”

Local children’s author uses emojis to help kids express feelings 

Submitted by Wesley Child 

Care Center 

Wesley Child Care Preschool 

welcomed local 

children’s author Evan 

Nimke, of Glenview, for 

Week of the Young Child 

festivities on April 18. 

Week of the Young 

Child is an annual celebration 

hosted by the National 

Association for the Education 

of Young Children 

that celebrates early-learning 

children, as well as 

their teachers and families. 

When Nimke and his 

wife, Jennifer, decided to 

put his career on hold in 

order to care for their two 

children, it was a daunting 

but important sacrifice for 

their family. Little did either 

of them know that it 

would chart the course for 

a new and rather unpredictable 

career path for the 

rare breed known as the 

stay-at-home dad. 

“I feel so fortunate to 

have the experience to 

stay home with our boys, 

but my journey to becoming 

a stay-at-home-dad 

certainly was filled with 

much uncertainty at the 

beginning,” Evan Nimke 

said. “We always knew it 

would be best for the children, 

but my wife and I 

wanted to also make sure 

it worked for the two of us. 

This felt like a big sacrifice 

... in terms of my putting 

my own career on hold, 

as well as defying social 

norms.” 

Now three years into the 

venture, Evan Nimke has 

channeled his experiences 

as a stay-at-home dad into 

literature. 

More specifically, in 

2017, Evan wrote and illustrated 

his first book: “H 

is for Happy.” The book 

leverages a modern day 

favorite, emojis, to help 

children understand and 

express their own feelings 

while also developing empathy. 

“Throughout my time as 

a stay-at-home-dad, I have 

had front row seats to the 

daily emotional fireworks 

show put on by my two 

boys as I watched them 

explore — and explode — 

trying to understand their 

newfound emotions,” he 

said. “I witnessed firsthand 

how challenging it 

can be for children to express 

their feelings without 

knowing the words to describe 

them.” 

Unable to find any A- 

B-C books about feelings 

at home or at the library, 

he set about creating one 

himself during his children’s 

naptimes. Appropriately, 

he titled it “H is 

for Happy.” The book is 

exclusively available on 

Amazon.com. 

“We are excited about 

bringing this author visit 

to our youngest learners,” 

said Jeanne Harman, preschool 

director at Wesley 

Child Care Center. “This 

experience will offer the 

opportunity for our preschoolers 

to further develop 

their social and earlyliteracy 

skills.”

Excavators, backhoe loaders and bulldozers recently began ripping apart the old

Wesley Child Care Center

home.

The Word on Wellness 

Greater than our bodies 

Chris Falcon 

Contributing Columnist 

The duality of the 

mind and body is 

a concept that has 

been debated for hundreds 

of years. 

Which substance has 

more influence over the 

other? Are we more than 

simply flesh, bone and 

synapses? 

When in psychological 

or emotional distress, it is 

clear that there is a side to 

us that is not governed by 

the same physical laws that 

bind us to the ground, but 

what about those moments 

when it appears we can 

defy the laws of physics? 

How do we explain the 

many circumstances when 

the natural laws that appear 

to connect us seem to lose 

their grip? 

You can take the girl 

out of the dance, but you 

can’t take the dance out 

of the girl. It was these 

words that circled my 

mind when I spent time 

talking to Loribeth Cohen, 

licensed physical therapist 

and owner of Re:Fit, 910 

Waukegan Road. Founded 

in 2000, she has created 

a business focused solely 

on promoting healing, and 

it all started with a dancer 

looking to perform at the 

top of her game. 

“As a young woman, I 

was a dancer and a runner,” 

she said. “I loved 

injury prevention and spent 

a lot of time searching on 

the outside for what turned 

out to be in the inside.” 

As an avid runner and 

pilates enthusiast, Cohen 

was used to being challenged, 

but it wasn’t until 

she was exposed to the 

metaphysical components 

of healing that she realized 

there was more to fitness 

than meets the eye. 

While trying to manage 

her own body, which 

was beaten and bruised 

from hours of dancing, she 

stumbled upon a team of 

therapist that used alternative 

methods to help speed 

recovery. Her journey down 

that road lead to many discoveries, 

but none greater 

than the idea that you can 

improve your body’s physical 

abilities by exercising 

the mind’s capabilities. 

“Your body is your 

house,” Cohen said. “You 

can fill it with whatever 

you want. Some of us 

have things in the basement 

and the attic that 

weigh us down. Sometimes 

people need help 

clearing the clutter out.” 

Is your pain actually 

physical, or is it the lack 

of support in your life that 

makes it hard to stand? Are 

you suffering from chronic 

pain, or are you being 

inhibited by repressed 

traumas that were never 

addressed? 

It’s easy to think these 

questions are crazy and 

unfounded; but then again, 

maybe there is more to us 

than meets the eye. 

“Ego prevents people 

from accepting the fact 

that we are more than 

our bodies,” Cohen said. 

“It’s just now that medical 

doctors are accepting that 

there could be more than 

just genetics that determine 

your physical health.” 

Re:Fit offers a wide variety 

of treatments and classes 

all aimed at bridging 

the gap between the mind 

and body. From integrative 

manual therapy to pilates 

and gyrotonics, Re:Fit is 

striving to redefine how we 

see ourselves in a world 

riddled with obesity and 

chronic conditions. 

“No two people are the 

same, and it is not our 

physical attributes that create 

this incredible range of 

diversity,” she said. “I can 

apply the same treatment to 

numbers of people that suffer 

from the same ailments 

and get a different outcome 

every time. There are other 

factors at play here.” 

Cohen says that connective 

tissue is the communication 

system within our 

bodies, but what is the system 

that allows for better 

communication between us 

and our bodies? Is ego in 

the way? Do we need to let 

go of our control in order 

to gain newfound health 

and happiness?

Letters To The Editor 

No time like the present 

This is the right time for 

government officials to 

support residents by calling 

for an environmental 

impact study and opposing 

the proposed freight-train 

holding track. 

If you were one of the 

more than 1,000 residents 

who attended the Village 

of Glenview’s public forum 

at Glenbrook South 

High School on March 12, 

consider yourself lucky; 

you are informed. 

The Village gave an indepth 

presentation on the 

hazards of the proposed 

two-mile, freight-train 

holding track in Glenview 

and Lake Forest and 

switching mechanism at 

Dewes Street in Glenview. 

They alerted you to the 

negative impact the track 

and switching mechanism 

would have on Glenview 

and other suburbs on the 

train’s route. 

If you were not at that 

meeting, go to Glenview. 

including some samples 

from the next generation 

of all-star writers was a 

no-brainer. 

The essays, especially 

those that focused on the 

superhero option, reminded 

me of a series of books I 

wrote as a third-grader that 

focused on a young velociraptor 

exploring the jungles 

of the Cretaceous Period. 

The young protagonist 

befriends several different 

types of dinosaurs during 

his journey, but the plots 

of the stories and the quality 

of the writing (it was 

bad) are beside the point. 

Thanks to those books, 

my third-grade teacher 

suggested that I pursue 

a career in writing. Of 

course, I didn’t care about 

any of that as a child, but 

my mom sure did, and 

after years of listening 

to her rave about those 

books, I made the switch 

from actuarial science to 

creative writing during 

my junior year of college. 

That, in turn, resulted in 

the top post at The Glenview 

Lantern newspaper. 

If my teacher hadn’t 

assigned that writing project, 

you wouldn’t get to 

read my awesome editorials 

every week. HA! 

So what will happen 

with these kids now that 

they’ve made a name for 

themselves in the world 

of writing? I, for one, am 

eager to find out. 

il.us/pages/Hiawatha.aspx, 

the Village’s website, for 

more information. Make 

yourself aware of the potential 

hazards this freight 

holding track and switching 

station would have. 

That track has already 

been the site of serious accidents 

— including one 

where the bridge on the 

track collapsed, a train 

carrying coal derailed and 

two wonderful neighbors 

of mine were killed. 

I am alarmed by the lack 

of an indepth environmental 

impact study (EIS). 

Of the 30 current Federal 

Railroad Administration 

projects, ours is one of 

three not to have an EIS 

done. That is irresponsible. 

So many questions remain 

unanswered. 

Why is the holding track 

needed? How will the increased 

freight-train traffic 

affect our health, our 

safety and our way of life? 

What will the increase in 

air pollution, noise pollution 

and vibration be? How 

badly will local businesses 

suffer? Will the railroads 

provide improved maintenance? 

Will the holding 

track result in more train 

derailments? How will the 

additional train traffic affect 

growing children? 

Many residents are taking 

action. I encourage 

more to do the same. There 

is strength in numbers. 

Contact the gubernatorial 

candidates, your senators 

and other officials. Let 

them know where you 

stand and how important 

this issue is to you. In 

this election year, I urge 

Governor Rauner and our 

elected officials to take a 

stand on their constituents’ 

behalf. Officials need to 

support rail traffic, as we 

all do, but they also need 

to make sure the railroads 

act responsibly. 

Stop the proposed 

freight-train holding track.

Glenview resident

From Page 24 

I don’t know if the 16th 

century philosopher Renee 

Descartes was right when 

he philosophized that our 

minds and bodies can exist 

independently of each 

other, but I do know that 

I feel like there is more to 

me than the vessel I carry 

around. Perhaps we all 

need to take more time to 

listen to what our bodies 

are telling us — and take 

the time to think about 

what we would like to say 

to our bodies.

Titans, Spartans meet under the sea for Glenbrook Musical 

Dan Dorfman 


Directing a high-school 

production with approximately 

150 teenagers from 

two different schools with 

two casts and an elaborate 

set paying homage to an 

iconic musical probably 

wouldn’t be easy for anyone 

under traditional situations. 

Mark Maranto took on 

that challenge just a few 

hours before showtime. 

Maranto oversaw the 

Glenbrook Musical, the 

combined Glenbrook 

South-Glenbrook North 

production that goes back 

49 years. This year’s performance 

of “The Little 

Mermaid” hit the stage 

nearly 30 years after the 

animated film premiered 

to audiences. 

Students and the rest of 

the production team had 

been preparing their version 

for several weeks 

leading up to the Thursday, 

April 26 debut at GBN. 

The production company 

included 83 cast members, 

45 musicians and 

a full crew that worked 

under Maranto, a 13-year 

GBS veteran now serving 

as the instructional supervisor 

for Fine Arts. He directed 

the show for the first 

time, stepping in midway 

through the process when 

Julie Ann Robinson went 

on maternity leave. Not 

long after moving into the 

director’s chair, Maranto 

watched as his choreographer 

took a job out of state. 

“It has been a wild, awesome 

adventure with a lot 

of twists,” Maranto said. 

“It takes a lot to put on a 

musical under the best of 

circumstances, but this has 

been particularly intense.” 

Personnel challenges 

aside, Maranto directed the 

Glenbrook South’s Ashley Levenson, as Ariel, sings a 

song. 

work of the cast and crew 

on the story of Ariel, King 

Triton and Sebastian. This 

was the first time “The Little 

Mermaid” was selected 

for the annual show. 

“They look at past 

shows they have done and 

they look at maximizing 

roles for students of both 

schools and how they are 

going to give as many kids 

an opportunity as possible,” 

Maranto said. “They 

always do a big cast show 

so they can give a lot of 

kids an opportunity to participate.” 

It was not an easy show 

to bring to the stage, as 

Maranto spoke of rented 

backdrops, special effects, 

the flying characters, colorful 

costumes and technical 

elements involved in 

a production that initially 

came to be known to audiences 

as a cartoon. 

“Of course, in animation 

you can make anything 

happen, but to try and 

translate that moments to 

the stage are really challenging,” 

he said. “People 

have a lot of deep associations 

with Disney films, so 

we all have this idea in our 

head on what it should be 

based on what we have 

seen so we really try to 

come as close as possible 

to what people are expecting 

and then take it beyond 

their expectations, we 

hope.” 

One of the performers 

looking to make an impression 

on the audience 

was South’s Ashley Levenson, 

one of two actresses 

portraying Ariel. There 

were two casts in place, 

with some actors taking 

on the same role in both 

groups. 

Levenson has been in 

shows since the age of 6, 

but liked the freshness of 

playing Ariel, the show’s 

heroine, for the first time. 

“It is a very fun character 

to immerse myself in,” 

Levenson said. “I have 

never played a character 

like her before. She is 

super fun and she can be 

naive at times, [and] that 

makes her a lovable character. 

She is exploring who 

she is and where she wants 

to be in her life.” 

Levenson once appeared 

as an eel in “The Little 

Mermaid” with another 

theater company. 

“It is really cool to 

switch to such a different 

character,” she said. 

While her role was considerable 

smaller when she 

was an eel, Levenson’s 

said her familiarity with 

the overall show helped 

her in these last few weeks 

Glenbrook North’s Ilana Silver, as Ursula, rehearses the Glenbrook Musical on 

Wednesday, April 25, at GBN. Photos by Scott Margolin/22nd Century Media 

in rehearsals. 

“I knew a lot of the music 

already, so being familiar 

with it, I could dive 

deeper and explore character 

roles and things like 

that since I am already familiar 

with the show,” she 

said. 

This will be Levenson’s 

final Glenbrook Musical, 

as she plans to attend the 

University of Michigan. 

The finality of the last production 

also rang true for 

GBN senior Jacob Denenberg, 

who said he is tentatively 

planning on going to 

Northwestern. 

Denenberg’s role in the 

2018 Glenbrook Musical 

was his 14th overall production 

at GBN. 

“I like to give people 

something new and interesting 

to focus on and I 

think it is very important to 

have people communicate 

messages through theater 

and provide a distraction 

from our daily troubles,” 

he said. 

Denenberg was one of 

the actors playing in both 

casts, so he had to play 

against Levenson in some 

of shows, and against Carly 

Meyer of GBN in others. 

Levenson and South’s Zach Adams perform a scene. 

He pointed to the pros 

and cons of that dynamic. 

“I think it is difficult 

because both of the Ariel’s 

act differently and 

you have to play off their 

emotions, but it is also 

easy because we have 

had this whole process 

to connect on personal 

levels both within theater 

and outside of theater,” 

he said. 

Levenson and Denenberg 

were two of the 

young performers Maranto 

worked with over the last 

few weeks. While noting 

the long hours, the longtime 

GBS teacher insisted 

he enjoyed getting the 

show ready. 

“It has been a joyous experience,” 

Maranto said. 

“It has been amazing to 

work with kids who are 

immensely talented. These 

kids are really top notch.”

Oil Lamp play explores womanhood 

through monologues, ensembles 

Submitted by Oil Lamp 

Theater 

Oil Lamp Theater’s 

newest production — 

“Love, Loss and What I 

Wore” by Delia and Nora 

Ephron — is an intimate 

collection of stories about 

women and their lives 

based on the bestselling 

book of the same title by 

Ilene Beckerman. 

These stories, shared as 

monologues and ensemble 

pieces by a cast of five 

women, offer audiences a 

warm and sometimes bittersweet 

vision of the joys 

and tribulations of modern 

womanhood. Conveyed 

through the prism of their 

relationships to their wardrobes 

and to the people 

they love, the characters 

share their experiences in 

ways that will bring twinges 

and nods of recognition 

to Oil Lamp’s audiences. 

Like a long heart-toheart 

chat with a friend 

over coffee, “Love, Loss 

and What I Wore” will take 

you along for a poignant 

journey of recognition 

through the heartbreak and 

the joy of so many women’s 

shared experiences. 

The stories explore 

those experiences by way 

of women’s wardrobe, 

covering everything from 

the mortifications of brabuying 

to poorly chosen 

prom dresses, bad lighting 

in fitting rooms, finding the 

right boots and high heels, 

wearing short skirts, and 

having nothing to wear. 

These tales weave together 

with stories about 

personal relationships at 

different stages of life. 

There’s the men who disappear 

for no known reason, 

the sisters who’ve 

always got your back and 

Actors (left to right) Nicola Howard, Gabrielle Gulledge,

Loss and What I Wore,” which runs through June 3.

even the disapproving 

mother who asks “Is that 

what you’re wearing?” 

“Love, Loss and What I 

Wore” creates a tapestry of 

clothing-fuelled recollections, 

each revealing intimate 

truths about relationships 

that grow and stretch 

out over a lifetime — relationships 

with mothers, 

boyfriends, husbands, exhusbands, 

sisters, daughters 

and grandchildren. 

The five actors portray 

multiple characters, some 

of whom appear at different 

stages in their lives. 

From the hilarious to the 

bittersweet, from the innocence 

of youth to the 

world-weary sophistication 

of maturity, these 

women of the Oil Lamp 

Theater provide a tableau 

of near-universal themes 

of female identity that will 

provoke laughter, knowing 

smiles and perhaps even a 

few wistful tears. 

Director Mazur Levin 

has created an original 

staging for this production 

of “Love, Loss and What I 

Wore” that brings dynamic 

movement and energy to 

the special world that is 

home for the memories of 

these fascinating storytellers. 

The play was initially 

presented as a part of the 

2008 summer series at 

Guild Hall in East Hampton, 

N.Y. In 2009, the show 

was first produced as an ongoing 

commercial theatrical 

production at the Westside 

Theatre in New York. 

That production won the 

2010 Drama Desk Award 

for Unique Theatrical Experience, 

as well as the 

2010 Broadway.com Audience 

Award for Favorite 

New Off-Broadway Play. 

The ensemble cast of this 

Oil Lamp Theater production 

of “Love, Loss and 

What I Wore” features Katie 

Barberi, Madeline Bunke, 

Nicola Howard, Gabrielle 

Gulledge and Anne Marie 

Lewis. Understudies for this 

production are Shelby Garrett 

and Rebecca Sparks. 

Savannah Clements serves 

as stage manager and Elizabeth 

Mazur-Levin serves as 

director. 

The play will run 

through June 3 at Oil 

Lamp theater, 1723 Glenview 

Road.

Academy’s adult company, 

performed in the Peridance 

Youth Showcase on 

April 14-15 in New York 

City through a collaboration 

between the two organizations. 

Approximately 100 

students participated in 

the nationwide showcase, 

which also included 

several dancers from 

Canada. 

Trifecta aims to empower 

the youth dance 

industry through three demographics: 

• Passageways for Chicago-area

local dance companies to 

unite for a day of master 

classes, empowerment 

seminars with professionals 

from Youth Services 

and a panel discussion 

with professional dancers. 

Participants made 

new connections with 

each other and performed 

in a showcase that was 

designed to empower 

the dancers and increase 

their appreciation for 

the art.

Froggy’s French Cafe keeps diners hopping with innovative fare 

Highwood eatery 

celebrates four 

decades of success 

Eric DeGrechie 

Managing Editor 

When Thierry Lefeuvre 

opened Froggy’s French 

Cafe in the summer of 

1980, he was fulfilling a 

dream that began in the 

northwest of France. 

Born in Brittany, France, 

Lefeuvre grew up interested 

in cooking. He used 

experiences gained in various 

kitchens to create Froggy’s, 

306 Green Bay Road, 

Highwood, which has been 

wowing locals for four decades. 

“You have to be stubborn 

and stay on top of everything 

that needs to be taken 

care of,” Lefeuvre said of 

Froggy’s sustained success. 

“The menu is filled with 

things that people have 

been loving for years.” 

While co-founder Gregg 

Mason is no longer involved 

in the operation, 

newer owners Bill and 

Sheri Cartwright are. Area 

sports fans may remember 

Bill Cartwright from 

his days playing, and later 

coaching, the Chicago 

Bulls. 

Walk through the doors of 

Froggy’s and you may feel 

like you’ve entered a neighborhood 

bistro in France. 

The owners pride themselves 

on providing an inviting 

and intimate ambiance, 

and the restaurant reflects 

that. The ceiling of the dining 

room is decorated with 

dozens of colorful upsidedown 

umbrellas and the 

walls are filled with original 

artwork by Jacqueline Lefeuvre, 

Thierry’s wife. 

Like his wife, Thierry 

Lefeuvre also considers 

himself an artist and his 

palettes are the beautiful 

dishes he creates. Seafood, 

The grilled whitefish Provençal ($25 on the dinner menu) at Froggy’s French Cafe in 

Highwood features locally bought seafood with shallots, tomato and garlic. Photos by 

Michael Wojtychiw/22nd Century Media 

bought locally and directly 

from Hawaii, is prominently 

featured throughout the 

menu. 

“I would say seafood 

makes up about 50 percent 

of the menu, but beef, especially 

rib eyes and tenderloins, 

are also popular,” 

Lefeuvere said. “The third 

thing people come here for 

is exotic items they can’t 

get anywhere else, like 

wild game.” 

While Lefeuvre realizes 

the importance of keeping 

items on the menu that 

have been ordered frequently 

over the years, he’s 

also quick to mix things up 

depending on the season 

and remain innovative with 

ever-changing daily specials. 

Not a fan of using a fryer 

at Froggy’s, Lefeuvre 

keeps his menu healthy, 

though he admits portions 

are larger to appease the 

tastes of Americans versus 

diners in Europe. 

Lefeuvre touts his chef’s 

creations, which include a 

choice of an appetizer, sorbet, 

entree and dessert, and 

range in price from $35- 

47 for dinner, and less for 

lunch. 

Cold appetizers ($11) 

include marinated Gulf 

shrimp (orange, coconut, 

oak leaf lettuce, cayenne 

pepper vinaigrette) and 

salmon trio (smoked, oak 

leaves, rillette, which is 

meat served similar to 

pate, and sausage). Hot 

appetizers include escargot 

casserole ($11, 

braised in a creamy garlic 

sauce) and foie gras ($16, 

sauteed with blackcurrant 

and onion cassis sauce). 

Among the popular seafood 

entrees is the grilled 

whitefish Provençal ($25 

on the dinner menu), featuring 

shallots, tomato and 

garlic, and served with 

mashed potatoes, grilled 

zucchini, peapods, tomatoes 

and baby carrots. 

While frequenting Froggy’s 

recently with several 

other 22nd Century Media 

employees, this is what I 

ordered for lunch. 

Everything at Froggy’s is 

super fresh and the sauce on 

this dish really kicked the 

whole entree up a notch. I 

made a point to tell Lefeuvre 

that I would be returning 

soon with my wife. 

Before I had the whitefish, 

I tried a bowl of cold

The sautéed shrimp with linguini ($29) is lightly 

breaded and served with lobster sauce. 

The pasta primavera ($23) can include vegetables, 

chicken or seafood, with Provençal or lobster cream 

sauce. 

Desserts at Froggy’s include meringue with espresso 

cappuccino, flourless chocolate cake, dark chocolate 

praline and ice cream. 

gazpacho. I’ve always been 

of the opinion that there 

is no better soup for the 

warm months ahead than 

gazpacho. Froggy’s version 

doesn’t disappoint with just 

the right amount of spice 

for a refreshing and cooling 

treat. 

One of my colleagues 

ordered the pasta primavera 

($23) with chicken (also 

available with vegetable 

and seafood) and served in 

a lobster cream sauce. The 

other dined on the sauteed 

shrimp with linguini ($29), 

which is lightly breaded 

and was also served in the 

lobster cream sauce. Let’s 

just say neither spoke 

much during the meal between 

bites and all three 

of our dishes were spotless 

when we finished our 

exquisite meals of French 

flavors. 

I can could go on and on 

about the menu at Froggy’s 

as it is vast and filled with 

culinary treats. Lobster, 

duck, sea scallops, scrod, 

veal and sweetbread are all 

included. Desserts include 

French bread pudding, 

creme brulee, mousse cake 

and artisan cheese. 

While Lefeuvre tweaks 

the menu for spring, reservations 

are being accepted 

for Mother’s Day on Sunday, 

May 13. Private parties 

are also very popular at 

Froggy’s. The restaurant’s 

Instagram account features 

Lefeuvre’s colorful plates.

with Eliana Wright 

The Glenbrook South 

senior plays a major role 

for the girls water polo 

team. 

When and why did 

you start playing 

water polo? 

I was introduced by a 

senior my freshman year 

and I just went with her 

to warmups to see what it 

was and then I ended up 

loving it. 

What do you like most 

about water polo? 

I love the intensity. I 

love having that family to 

play with and make a family 

of my own and know 

everyone on an individual 

basis. 

What is one thing 

people don’t know 

about you? 

I like to sing. 

What is your favorite 

sports moment? 

My freshman year getting 

my first goal. I didn’t 

know what was going on 

until it went into the goal 

and everyone was super 

excited and cheering. It 

was a big moment for me. 

If you were a 

superhero, what 

superpower would you 

want? 

I would want Wonder 

Woman superpowers. 

She’s strong, she’s fast and 

an awesome person. 

What would you do if 

you won the lottery? 

I would give some of 

it to charity or homeless 

shelters and then save the 

rest for college. 

If you could play 

another sport, what 

would it be? 

I would play soccer. I 

played when I was younger 

but I like water sports 

better. 

What is your favorite 

area restaurant? 

I like North Branch 

since they’re super close 

and the good is really 

good. Their bacon burger 

is really good. 

What is one thing on 

your bucket list? 

I really want to go skydiving. 

If you could be any 

animal, which would 

you choose? 

I would be a bear because 

it’s my spirit animal 

and I’ve learned to go with 

bear.

Coach Talk 

4:45 p.m. Jon ‘Coach’ Cohn 

Contributing Columnist 

Glenview Resident 

Play ball primer part two 

- ‘the Spiro’s edition’ 

If you walk into the 

long standing iconic 

Glenview restaurant 

named Spiro’s and 

you happen to be really 

hungry, I have one quick 

recommendation: Do not 

start talking baseball with 

owner Peter Nestos. 

If you do, you may never 

get your “Bomber,” that 

mouth-watering collection 

of specially seasoned Italian 

beef, secret mayo-plus 

dressing and peppers to 

die for. Or, for that matter, 

any of their other delicious 

sandwiches. 

The reason? Maybe the 

only thing Nestos loves 

more than the family 

restaurant started by dad 

Spiro (and of course his 

own family) is the game 

of baseball. More specifically, 

teaching it to the 

youth of Glenview. 

You get the oft-aproned 

owner talking “America’s 

game“ and the proper way 

we should be instructing 

it, and all I can say is settle 

in and get comfortable. 

The man has thoughts; 

lot’s of them. And he has 

the credo to back it up. 

Nestos started coaching 

for our Glenview Youth 

Baseball house league 

back in 1993 with no kids 

playing. He volunteered 

because of his love of 

the game and teaching it 

to young kids. Since, he 

has coached teams like 

the Glenview Storm, The 

Glenview Blaze, the Niles 

Braves and then back for 

another stint coaching his 

nephews, his daughter and 

now his two boys in the 

GYB house league. 

Somewhere around 25 

years worth of youth baseball 

coaching experience. 

Prior to that, he played 

and competed on some 

of the top Chicago area 

16-inch softball teams as 

well. 

So when the man 

speaks baseball, between 

making those delicious 

sandwiches (do not forget 

the Spiro’s award winning 

poorboy sub) we need to 

listen. 

“Number one” Netos 

said. “As a coach, you 

have to encourage parent 

participation. Having parents 

help out at practice 

allows you to break kids 

into small groups and 

maximize activity time for 

the kids. The biggest key 

is keeping the kids active 

at practice. We usually do 

stations, maybe six minutes 

per drill with the kids 

rotating. You only have 

a short time at practice, 

so you have to keep them 

moving.” 

Nestos also incorporates 

another teaching strategy: 

using catchy phrases and 

terms to help younger kids 

remember certain fundamentals. 

“For instance, we use 

‘big bird’ to teach the 

separation stance for balance 

when throwing,” he 

explained. “We use ‘tell 

time on the clock’ to help 

kids remember proper 

hand position. Another 

is ‘knuckles to the sky’ 

for proper grip, ‘finish 

painting the fence’ for 

follow thru position when 

throwing.” 

He also threw in “frame 

the fly ball” and “the Ferris 

wheel” (think throwing 

motion) as a couple others 

to help the kids remember. 

“If they don’t learn how 

to catch and throw and 

field-the basic fundamentals, 

then really we are not 

doing our job” he said. 

“From there, they can go 

on to more advanced techniques, 

but you have to 

have the foundation first.” 

Nestos has a ton of 

drills for batting practice 

as well. Too many to go 

into here, but think tees, 

stations, fences, whiffle 

balls, big ball drills and 

you start to get the idea. 

“Get to it, and get through 

it” is an expression coach 

will use to teach the kids 

to swing and then follow 

through. 

In conclusion, let’s just 

say that if Nestos attacks 

running his restaurant 

with the same passion, enthusiasm 

and joy he does 

in teaching kids baseball, 

count on Spiros being 

around for maybe another 

50 years. 

And now, I am really 

hungry.

physical education teacher,

Boys Water Polo 

Chang’s performance leads South past North 

Gary Larsen 


It’s always nice to play a 

good game when you’re a 

senior on Senior Night, especially 

when your team is 

hosting its heated rival. 

But then again, Glenbrook 

South senior Brendan 

Chang has been playing 

water polo well for a 

long time. So it’s no real 

surprise that the fourth-year 

varsity player scored seven 

goals in South’s 10-8 win 

over visiting Glenbrook 

North on April 25. 

Chang also had six steals 

in the win. 

“It was a great game and 

a fun Senior Night, he said. 

South beat North 15-4 

when the teams met back 

on March 17 but the Spartans 

actually led the rematch 

after one quarter of 

play. 

That’s when Glenbrook 

South ratcheted up its 

intensity in holding 

Glenbrook North to four 

goals over the next three 

quarters. 

“I was impressed with 

our last three quarters. 

They really locked it down 

defensively,” Glenbrook 

South coach Dave Lieberman 

said. “We really started 

to kind of control them 

and not let them be open. 

We controlled our turnovers 

a little more, too.” 

Chang scored all three of 

the Titans’ goals in the first 

quarter. And even though 

his side trailed 4-3 heading 

into the second, Chang 

admitted that tight games 

have a way of bringing out 

the best in a team. 

“Sometimes it’s more 

fun when it’s close. It 

makes you fight for it,” 

Chang said. “We’ve had a 

few hard losses to sectional 

teams and this felt like a really 

good one to fight and 

come back with. And it felt 

good moving the ball. Our 

passes were a lot crisper 

than they’ve been.” 

The Titans and Spartans 

were tied 5-5 after two 

quarters and Glenbrook 

South led 7-6 after three 

quarters before posting a 

3-2 edge in the fourth. 

Chang scored twice in 

the final quarter to help secure 

the win. “He’s big and 

he knows what to do with 

the ball,” Lieberman said 

of Chang. “He’s thinking 

two or three moves ahead, 

and that’s what you see 

from great players.” 

One of South’s keys was 

slowing down Glenbrook 

North junior Ilian Farbman, 

the Spartans’ chief scoring 

threat. 

“He brings a lot to the 

table,” Spartans coach 

Bud Mathieu said of Farbman. 

“He’s fast, strong, he 

has a great shot, he plays 

really good defense — he 

has all the skills you want. 

You can look at one of 

our games and tell within 

thirty seconds that he’s our 

best guy.” 

Lieberman was well 

aware of the threat Farbman 

posted, and he applauded 

Chang and Nate 

Cohen for their work in 

helping to slow Farbman 

down. 

Cohen led South with 10 

steals on the day. 

“I was really happy with 

Nate Cohen’s defense on 

(Farbman), especially in 

the second half,” Lieberman 

said. “He does a really 

nice job and he’ll 

sacrifice his offense to 

concentrate on defense. 

Nate has a great arm and 

when he gets his shot, he 

takes it, but in this game 

we needed him to kind of 

lock down on (Farbman).”

Glenview. Photo by Gary Larsen/22nd CENTURY MEDIA 

Farbman scored the 

game’s final goal, with 

14 seconds remaining, 

and afterwards he was 

pleased with the way his 

side competed, in light of 

the 11-point loss North 

suffered to South a month 

earlier. 

“We played the game 

slowly, and didn’t make 

any stupid mistakes,” 

Farbman said. “We knew 

(Glenbrook South) was 

probably better than us 

and that we couldn’t just 

do something and hope 

for the best. We played 

defense and we communicated, 

which is something 

we’ve been working 

on.” 

Lieberman is pleased 

with the way Cam Schulte 

has stepped up his game 

recently, while Mathieu 

is proud of the season’s 

evolution his boys have 

shown. 

Glenbrook South’s Zach Bilimoria tries to get the ball against Glenbrook North’s 

Zander Johnson. 

“Danny Ogranovich 

is really good defensively 

and Ryan Corfield 

is just hustling his butt 

off on both sides of the 

ball,” Mathieu said. “A 

month ago we had two 

really skilled players, and 

now we have six. Three 

or four guys that were 

second-tier players are 

now playing awesome 

defense, learning how to 

counter-attack, and just 

play smart polo.”



Girls Water Polo 

Titans fast start doesn’t last at Spartans 

Michal Dwojak, Sports Editor 

The difference in Glenbrook 

North and Glenbrook 

South’s matchup 

April 25 might’ve been 

what didn’t actually happen. 

GBS held a 3-1 lead after 

the first quarter when 

GBN head coach Robin 

Walker relied on a philosophy 

he’s learned has 

worked throughout the 

years: do nothing. He 

didn’t panic or start yelling 

at his team in between 

the opening two quarters, 

he let his players figure 

out what needed to 

change. 

The Spartans quickly 

figured things out after 

that inaction in their 7-4 

win, showing the development 

Walker has expected 

all season. 

“There were too many 

times where we got a 

good shot and it didn’t get 

in the goal,” Glenbrook 

South head coach Michael 

Stancik said. “That’s the 

major difference between 

the win and a loss today.” 

GBS came out of the 

gate with a strong offense, 

creating different 

opportunities wherever 

they could find them. Senior 

Eliana Wright scored 

the first goal with five 

minutes, 58 seconds left 

in the first quarter before 

Julianne Crawford added 

another less than 30 seconds 

later. 

Spartans senior Isabel 

Herbst broke up the shutout 

when she scored with 

4:16 left but Lily Dolan 

scored with less than five 

seconds left in the opening 

quarter to give GBS 

the 3-1 lead. 

That’s when Walker allowed 

his team to figure

things out, talk amongst 

each other. There they realized 

that they needed to 

tighten things defensively 

and that’ll open things on 

the offensive front. 

The Spartans wasted little 

time getting back into 

it, primarily Sophie Dimoff. 

She scored the first 

two goals of the second 

quarter in the first three 

minutes before Gaby 

Hana interrupted Dimoff’s 

scoring by scoring 

one of her own. Dimoff 

added one more to take a 

5-3 lead into the half. 

South played less effectively 

in the third and 

fourth, scoring a goal each 

time, but it was enough for 

the Spartans to take the 

game against their rival. 

“We kind of lost our 

way the second, third and 

fourth quarter,” Wright 

said. “We fought hard, we 

did the best we could and 

they deserved this win.” 

It’s been something 

Stancik has noticed all 

season. While his teams 

have remained competitive 

against good teams 

like GBN, the Titans have 

not yet found the playmaking 

ability to shine 

into the moment and take 

charge. 

“We need to play with 

more intensity in every 

moment of the game,” 

Stancik said. “It’s not 

about occupying a space, 

but it’s making things 

happen. I have a lot of 

girls who can do the technical 

stuff well, but they 

haven’t gained the confidence 

to be a playmaker 

yet.” 

That’s something he’ll 

need to see from his team 

heading into conference 

tournament and sectional 

time. He wants to see his 

players play intensely at 

practice and realize it’s 

not about knowing the 

strategies but knowing 

how to execute them. 

He knows a rematch 

might be likely against the 

Spartans because of the 

sectional and he’s ready 

for the challenge. 

“I would like to see a 

repeat of this game and us 

take home the win,” Stancik 

said. 

The night was also senior 

night for the Spartans. 

While they still a few 

weeks together, they are 

preparing for a run that’s 

been years in the making. 

With a 13-5 record following 

the win over their 

rival, the seniors and rest 

of the Spartans are ready 

for the challenge of what 

lies the rest of the way to 

winning a championship. 

“It’s crazy,” Herbst 

said. “I remember the senior 

night when I was a 

freshman and I remember 

like it was yesterday. It 

doesn’t feel real. I’m really 

proud of the seniors 

for how we worked hard 

to get to where we are.”



Ramblers respond to down Trevians 

Michael Wojtychiw 

Contributing Sports Editor 

Loyola Academy and 

New Trier are the two 

most iconic programs in 

the sport and routinely 

made up of some of the, 

if not the, best players in 

the state. 

So when the two face 

off, it’s bound to be a 

good game. 

Both teams came into 

the April 25 game off of a 

win against Rockford, the 

top team in Michigan, and 

looked to get ready for the 

homestretch of the regular 

season. 

New Trier got off to 

the fast start but Loyola 

finished, coming out with 

an 18-6 win in Northfield. 

The Ramblers went 

on a 17-3 run to close the 

game, after trailing 3-1 11 

minutes, 10 seconds into 

the game. 

“It wasn’t the start 

we envisioned,” Loyola 

coach John Dwyer said. 

“But to our kid’s credit, 

they didn’t crumble, nobody 

was really panicking. 

We knew exactly 

what we were doing 

wrong. 

“This game is an aberration 

because that’s a 

really good team. I think 

we just caught them with 

how quickly we turned it 

around and got right back 

in it.” 

The Trevians (9-3) 

got on the board 49 seconds 

into the game on 

Courtney Kaskey’s first 

goal of the game and 

Lucy Murray followed 

43 seconds later, making 

it look like New Trier 

would have no problem 

scoring. 

“We were on a one-way 

ticket to getting the stuffing 

knocked out of us,” 

the Loyola coach said. 

“But our kids dug in, we 

started winning some 

draws. To our kid’s credit, 

they handled the pressure 

very well and once they 

got the lead, they felt a lot 

more confident.”

Loyola’s Sophia Rucker moves in for a shot while being defended by New Trier’s 

Elise McKenna on April 25 in Northfield. Tracy Allen/22nd Century Media 

cut the lead to 2-1 and 

Kaskey followed with 

another goal at the 13:50 

mark, but that’s when the 

tide turned. 

The Ramblers (12-3) 

rattled off the next 10 

goals, quickly turning a 

3-1 deficit into a 11-3 lead 

six minutes into the second 

half. 

“I thought the first half 

could have been tighter,” 

New Trier coach Pete 

Collins said. “The yellow 

card didn’t help and 

we never had the ball, so 

we got worn down. The 

second half, they had the 

draws. The turning point 

was they got momentum 

and scored, scored, 

scored. 

“We started pressing, 

each of our kids trying 

to do too much. it was a 

spiral that got out of control.” 

How did the Ramblers 

turn the tables so quickly? 

Draw controls and freeposition 

opportunities. 

The Ramblers converted 

on three-of-four free-position 

opportunities down 

the first-half stretch, while 

winning eight draw controls 

during the run. 

While seniors like 

Claire Caffery and Riley 

Dolan combined to score 

four goals, it was the underclassmen, 

particularly 

freshmen Maley Starr and 

Ellie Lazzaretto, who led 

the way. The two firstyear 

players combined for 

six goals. 

“When you walk onto 

this field, you feel the energy, 

you feel the people 

just going off each other,” 

said Lazzaretto, who had 

three goals. “You know 

they wanna beat us so bad 

and we wanna beat them 

even more. So when you 

get on that field and coach 

calls your name, it’s all 

about what you’ve been 

taught in practice and 

making plays. 

“Those first two goals 

they hit, they hit us hard. 

Right when Lauryn Repp 

went down, it was like 

‘we’re not losing this 

game, we’re winning it 

for her.’ We did everything 

in our power. It was 

such a team effort, it was 

awesome.” 

Eight different Loyola 

players scored for the 

Ramblers, showcasing the 

team’s depth, something 

that has been a key part to 

the team’s success. 

“That’s usually the 

team we aspire to be,” the 

Loyola coach said. “This 

is the team we want to 

be, where we have seven 

equal weapons when we 

go in. These kids came 

in big. Balanced scoring 

is big for us because 

you never know where 

the scoring is coming 

from. 

“We have a lot of weapons. 

We’re young, but 

we’re getting older. It’s 

awesome. No pressure, 

they just go in and play.” 

Murray snapped the 

loyola run by scoring her 

second goal at the 14:51 

mark of the second half. 

Murray would finish with 

three of the Trevians’ six 

goals, while Kaskey had 

two and Claudia Shevitz 

one. 

For the Ramblers, 

Dolan led the way with 

four goals, while Starr and 

Lazzaretto had three each.

Gary Larsen 


One of the best moments 

at this year’s 10-team, 56th 

Annual Spartan Relays 

at Glenbrook North came 

from a soccer player. 

That moment came from 

Glenbrook South sophomore 

Schneider Chery, 

who grew up playing soccer 

in Haiti, has only lived 

in the United States for 

two years and had never 

run track before this year. 

Coming around the final 

turn in the 800-meter 

sprint medley relay, Chery 

trailed Larkin’s Malik 

Walkine by a few meters 

but found the kick he 

needed to edge Walkine at 

the finish line and give the 

Titans the win. 

“I think I got (Walkine) 

by about an inch,” Chery 

said. “In a meet last week it 

was almost the same thing 

but I finished second.” 

Relay teammates James 

McPhaul, Kalvin Dela- 

Cruz, and Joel Pribek set 

him up and Chery came 

through for them in his 

first year at Glenbrook 

South. 

“I played soccer at Niles 

West before coming here,” 

Chery said. “I didn’t know 

(track) when I was in Haiti 

but I think I’m doing pretty 

good at it.” 

Titans coach Kurt 

Hasenstein agreed. 

“Our soccer coach (Reggie 

Lara) brought him over 

to me in the fall and told 

me I’d better get him for 

track,” Hasentstein said. 

“He’s doing a great job for 

us.” 

Glenbrook South placed 

fourth at Glenbrook North 

on Friday, April 27. Deerfield 

won the team title, 

84-82 over second-place 

Stevenson. The host Spartans 

finished sixth, Lake 

Forest was seventh and 

Loyola placed eighth. 

Glenbrook South’s Matt 

Jortberg, Will Kelly, Will 

Houser and Jordan Theriault 

also won the 6400 

relay in 18 minutes, 33.94 

seconds, more than 16 seconds 

faster than secondplace 

Stevenson. 

“(Jortberg), our leadoff 

kid, has been sick. This 

was his first outdoor race 

of the year,” Hasenstein 

said. “He and (Theriault) 

were our top cross country 

guys. Our two middle 

guys were sophomores 

who ran close to personal 

best times today, and by 

the time (Theriault) got the 

baton we had a big lead.” 

Anchor man Theriault 

had no one pushing him 

during the final leg of the 

1600 but managed to run 

his second-best time ever. 

“You want to beat someone 

because that’s what 

racing is,” Theriault said, 

“but sometimes it’s just 

you against the clock. I 

knew our (6400) team was 

going to be solid so mentally 

I just have to prepare 

myself for that.”

The Titans also got a 

second in the long jump 

from John Halkias, whose 

jump of 19-feet-9.5 was 

only 2.5 inches behind 

first-place Joey Heffernan 

of Lake Zurich. 

South’s relay team 

of Jack Reardon, Jason 

Leszynski, Jason Vazquez 

and Umani Ubeid placed 

third in the 1600, and the 

Titans’ Ubeid, Max Gerber, 

George Wood and 

Chris Nadolny placed third 

in the 800 relay. 

Ubeid placed second 

in the high jump with a 

jump of 5’10” and the 

Titans also got personal 

bests from shot-putters 

Henry Schleizer and Julian 

Aragon. Schleizer placed 

fourth with a toss of 47’5” 

and Aragon was sixth with 

a toss of 45’2”. 

One of the day’s dominant 

performances in the 

field events came from 

Loyola Academy’s Declan 

Ritzenthaler, whose pole 

vault of 14’7” was more 

than two feet higher than 

anyone in the field. 

Ritzenthaler made it 

downstate last year with 

a sectional vault of 14’1” 

and he vaulted 15’0” during 

the recent indoor track 

season. He came close to 

clearing a new personal record 

of 15’2” at Glenbrook 

North. 

“I just want to go for 

PRs and I don’t really like 

to think about a set height 

that I need to get,” Ritzenthaler 

said.“My mental 

approach to it has gotten 

better since last year. I just 

like to go and have fun and 

try to be the best I can be. 

I definitely have more confidence.” 

Visualization has long 

been a technique in sports, 

in which an athlete pictures 

perfect execution 

towards reaching peak 

performance, and Ritzenthaler 

embraces it. 

When does he visualize 

the perfect vault? 

“In class, on the way 

home — I do it all the 

time,” Ritzenthaler said. “I 

have these mental things 

that I relay in my mind 

to reinforce it. It’s really 

technical and you have to 

have everything straight 

because one mistake can 

ruin it. So I like to visualize 

it in my mind.” 

Loyola assistant coach 

Ryan Gibbons sees even 

better things ahead for 

Ritzenthaler once the cold 

spring relents. 

“He’s got the height 

and now he just needs 

some good weather,” Gibbons 

said. “He’s really a 

student of pole vaulting. 

He’s constantly going over 

whatever he can tweak to 

get better. He’s got the motivation, 

he’s got the desire, 

and he’s got the work 

ethic.” 

Loyola’s 800 relay 

team of Jack McCall, Jack 

Loveland, Adam Reyes, 

and Trenton Bismonte took 

top honors with a time of 

1:34.98, and the 400 relay 

team of McCall, Loveland, 

Bismonte and Mac Saliba 

placed second in 45.29 

Loyola also got a third 

in the shot put from Diedo 

Collado with a throw of 

48-10, and the thrower’s 

400 relay team of Collado, 

Justin Klonoski, Justin Simon 

and Nicholas Rodriguez 

placed third in 52.44.
