joined by her husband, Jeff<br />

and their son, Micah, 9,<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 />

the owner chose not to pursue<br />

against the associate. The<br />

purse was returned and the<br />

associate was advised she<br />

was no longer welcome at<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 />

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.
