Palatine, was arrested for<br />
a month ago and were<br />
looking forward to skate<br />
Micah wants to play organized<br />
hockey this fall,<br />
Barley-Jenkins stated.<br />
“We used the free rinks<br />
in Chicago all the time<br />
when we lived there,” she<br />
said.<br />
The novelty of skating<br />
in August presented<br />
a challenge for Barley-<br />
Jenkins.<br />

cold right now and that is<br />
not a feeling I have had<br />
since wintertime,” she<br />
said.<br />

purse was returned and the<br />
associate was advised she<br />

the business.<br />
organized hockey leagues<br />
and now the parents want<br />
to get the younger boys,<br />
5-year-old twins Kyle and<br />
Kevin to follow that same<br />
path.<br />
“We had some friends<br />
who were coming out here<br />
and this is the year we<br />
hope to get them started<br />
in skating,” Laura Koller<br />
said as she helped Kyle get<br />
into uniform. “It is a life<br />
skill and we would love it<br />
if they played hockey like<br />
their older brothers. It is a<br />
great team sport.”<br />
Yet she conceded there<br />
was a quirkiness to the<br />
night.<br />
“It’s very warm outside,”<br />
she said. “It is<br />
strange to be pulling out<br />
pants and sweatshirts.”<br />

to the spot formerly<br />
occupied by Body Gears.<br />
In addition, it also plans<br />
on opening Adelheidi’s<br />

have children ride their<br />
bikes down to Lincoln Avenue,<br />
play some games,<br />
grab an ice cream, meet<br />
with friends in the park<br />
and take advantage of everything<br />
the Village has to<br />
offer,” Hoffmann’s application<br />
letter to the Village<br />
states.
