Lincoln-Way Community High School D210 Board of Education
Madrigals decision updated,
fiscal year 2019 budget passes
Megan Schuller
Freelance Reporter
The Lincoln-Way Madrigals
groups can once again
perform in churches as they
have traditionally done since
being founded 49 years ago.
But, there are some guidelines
set by the D210 Board
of Education at its Thursday,
Sept. 20, meeting that the
group will have to follow.
Superintendent Dr. Scott
Tingley’s original decision to
ban the madrigal groups out
of churches came to light in
July in response to a Wisconsin-based
organization called
The Freedom from Religion
Foundation, who wrote to
Tingley in February alleging
that the use of religious spaces
for madrigal choir performances
was a violation of the
Constitution.
After months of not publicly
discussing the matter, Tingley
gave a statement at the
Sept. 20 meeting about how
he came to his original decision
and why the administration
changed its mind.
“My main motivation is,
No. 1, to protect the program
and, No. 2, to protect the district,”
Tingley said.
Tingley said that when he
first received the email from
the Freedom from Religion
Foundation, he met with administrators
to discuss the
matter and thought it was
best to ban the groups from
churches in attempts to avoid
litigation and to protect the
madrigal program as a whole.
“My job is to take emotion
and personal view out to do
what’s best for the district,”
Tingley said. “Several years
ago we were put in a situation
where the madrigal program
itself was challenged.
I was part of the group that
Round it Up
A brief look at other items discussed at the Sept. 20
D210 Board of Education meeting
• The 2019 tax levy was adopted. On average, existing
taxpayers will experience a 2.1 percent increase on
their tax.
• Improvements at Lincoln-Way East are nearing
completion. The tennis courts, bleachers, parking lot
and roof were remodeled. Card readers were also
installed on the exterior doors of the school.
• Central plans to change the homecoming court
titles to Mr. and Miss Knight from the traditional
homecoming titles of King and Queen.
reworked the program to take
the focus off for us to continue
that program. My first
response was to protect the
madrigal program, to take the
scruitney away, to protect it in
its entirety.”
Tingely said that, on average,
each madrigal group
performed in churches two to
three times in their season.
“This group [Freedom
from Religion Foundation]
has the resources to litigate,”
Tingley said. “The question
is, should the district move in
that direction for six to nine
performances a year?”
Tingley said that after revisiting
the decision and discussing
the matter with the
district’s attorney, John Izzo,
he has come to the conclusion
that students may perform in
churches without violating
the constitution. The catch is
that the madrigals group must
follow a few conditions, the
main stipulation being that
they cannot perform during
the service.
Tingley clarified during
discussion among board
members that under that condition,
the group may perform
before or after mass, just not
during the mass or worship
service.
The memorandum released
by the district also reads:
“Where and whenever possible,
given space and acoustical
considerations, performances
in church locations
should be in halls or other
suitable performance venues
rather than in sanctuaries.
The songs selected to be performed
should include both
secular non-religious themes
(such as winter and non-religious
symbols of Christmas
such as Santa), and religious
themes from multiple religious
traditions.”
It also states that the madrigal
performance content
should be determined by
school officials without input
or suggestions from church
officials, and that student
participation in any madrigal
performances outside the official
madrigal dinners would
be voluntary. Charles Stark,
the founder of the original
Lincoln-Way madrigals
group, pointed out at the Aug.
2 district meeting when he
spoke up for his program that
performing in churches has
always been optional for students
since it began as a way
to give back to the communi-

Frankfort Village Board
Village awards one-year contract for holiday lighting
Nuria Mathog, Editor
During the Frankfort Village
Board's Sept. 17 regular
meeting, trustees voted
to award a contract of up to
$26,000 to Wingren Landscape,
Inc. for Village holiday
lighting decoration services
as part of the 2018 Holiday
Lighting Program.
Village staff had previously
requested bids for a threeyear
contract for holiday
lighting and decoration installation
at the Village Hall,
Breidert Green, Frankfort
Police Department and the
Route 30/45 entrance sign,
and after discussing costs,
the Village's departmental
operations committee opted
to direct staff to negotiate a
one-year contract with the
landscaping company.
Wingren agreed to honor
the previous year's rate of
$24,792 in addition to costs
Round it Up
A brief recap of other items discussed
at the Sept. 17 Frankfort Village Board
meeting
• Trustees voted to award Jondec
Painting a $9,270 contract to paint the
exterior of the Frankfort Area Historical
Society Museum building located at 132
Kansas St.
• The board awarded a contract of up
to $42,750 to Bulk Storage, Inc. for roof
replacement of Frankfort's Salt Dome
storage building at 100 Sangmeister Road.
The board accepted the financial affairs
committee's recommendation to accept
involving replacement of any
damaged lights.
"What we need to do is just
to be sure that we light up
the town, get the price down,
accept the one-year bid and
possibly go out and re-bid
it again next year," Trustee
Dick Trevarthan said. "But

it does replace the lights that
are in dire need, because we
want our downtown beautiful
as always, as it has been
in the past, and I think it's not
only necessary to residents,
but it's necessary to businesses,
necessary to all the people
who visit our downtown during
the Christmas season."
The board also approved
an ordinance amending a
previous Village ordinance
governing the regulation and
application of small wireless
facilities.
he Small Wireless Deployment
Act, which went into
effect in June, gives wireless
carriers the right to add telecommunication
hardware to
structures in the public rightof-way,
such as utility poles
and light poles, to facilitate
new 5G wireless networks.
Municipalities were given
until Aug. 1 to adopt an ordinance
on the subject, and the
board passed an ordinance at
its July 16 regular meeting.
Trustee Bob Kennedy said
the updated ordinance was
drafted with input from legal
counsel, describing it as "a
better version to protect the
residents of Frankfort."
During the mayor's report,
Mayor Jim Holland read
aloud a proclamation proclaiming
Sept. 23-29 Rail
Safety Week in Frankfort,
noting that in 2017 alone,
2,105 rail-grade crossing
collisions resulted in 807
personal injuries and were
responsible for 274 fatalities
in the U.S.
Additionally, he said,
1,027 trespassing incidents
occurred in the U.S., in 2017,
resulting in 520 pedestrians
being killed and another
507 being injured while trespassing
on railroad property
rights-of-way.
"The idea in my mind is
that sometimes we talk about
'this train hit this car,'" Holland
said. "Well, the trains
don't come off the tracks and
start chasing cars around;
generally, the car's in a place
where it shouldn't be when it
gets hit. The same with a pedestrian;
generally, it's the pedestrian
who is in the wrong
place. And all of us need to
be aware of that and stay off
those tracks when trains are
around and whether we're
walking or we are in the car
and certainly stay off the railroad's
property altogether."

ty that volunteered to help the
group during its season.
The memorandum will be
discussed with the madrigal
directors now that it has been
discussed by the board. No
board action was taken since
it is an administration procedure,
not a board policy.
2019 Budget passes
A budget hearing was held
before the board voted on the
fiscal year 2019 budget. There
was no public comments or
questions raised regarding the
budget. The first preview of
the budget was given on Aug.
2 during a workshop, and has
since been discussed briefly
in meetings.
During board discussion
before the vote, Board Member
Christopher Lucchetti
pointed out that $600,000 was
set aside in the Capital Outlay
budget line of the Operations
and Maintenance Fund, when
it would make more sense to
keep that extra money in the
more accessible capital projects
fund. A motion was made
to make this amendment and
adopt this budget.
“I don’t know why we
would keep in a restricted
funds $600,000 that have already
been allocated to capital
budgets,” Lucchetti said.
“At the time we made the
decision as a board to spend
$3.6 million on capital projects,
it should all come out of
that same fund.”
Roughly $1.8 million has
already been expended from
the capital funds, according
to Assistant Superintendent
of Business Brad Cauffman,
since the budget begins in
July even if it is not passed
until September.
Frankfort D157-C Board of Education
2018-19 budget approved, officials to look into cost-saving options
Megan Schuller
Freelance Reporter
The Frankfort School District
157-C Board of Education
approved a final budget for the
2018-19 fiscal year during the
board’s Sept. 19 meeting and
plans to continue with costcutting
measures to maintain
the balanced budget.
D157-C faces the same
challenges with state funding
that other area school districts
do. However, D157-C was recently
placed in the “Financial
Recognition” category by the
Illinois State Board of Education
for receiving an AAA
bond rating again this year.
The district does project
a deficit of approximately
$500,000 as the expenditures
of $36.6 million outweigh the
revenues of $36.1 million.
According to the budget,
the district projects a minimal
decrease in its fund balance reserves
of about 1.4 percent of
revenues. The revenue shows
an increase of 2.2 percent with
an increase of expenditures of
about 4.8 percent. The district
will continue to spend more
than it receives in revenue.
After the public hearing and
budget presentation by Director
of Business and Operational
Services Kate Ambrosini,
the board approved the final
budget.
“The small deficit that is
anticipated is a result of working
to utilize fund balances
in an effort to keep property
Round it Up
A brief recap of other
items discussed at
the Sept. 19 Frankfort
D157-C Board of
Education meeting
• The board discussed a
three-year capital plan to
help reduce the deficit.
• The replacement
of the district’s email
system was approved for
$33,602.
tax increases minimal, per the
board's request,” Ambrosini
said.
Meredith Dobes, D157-C
public relations coordinator,
said since the budget is balanced,
there is no deficit reduction
plan required by the State.
“This shows that the district
is continuing to operate within
its means and maintain adequate
fund balance reserves,”
Dobes said in a press release.
While a deficit reduction
plan is not required by the
State, the district is looking
into options that would save
money. Some of those cost
cutting measures include fourday
summer work weeks, a
bid for gas and electric usage,
installing energy efficient mechanical
systems in all schools,
evaluating employee insurance
programs and vendor service
agreements and consolidating
computer usage.

Annual fall campfire brings Frankfort families together
Mary Compton
Freelance Reporter
Sisters Izzy (left) and Abby Wagner, of Frankfort, roast
marshmallows at the campfire.
With the smell of smores
hanging in the air and a crisp
cool breeze, Frankfort’s annual
Family Fall Campfire
and Overnight Campout was
a hit with local families on
Friday, Sept. 21. While some
children spent their time
rolling down a big hill, other
attendees enjoyed telling
stories around a campfire in
Commissioners Park.
Christine Henning brought
her two children Brooke and
Brody to the event to enjoy
the fall festivities.
“We went on the hayride;
the kids are also having fun
playing on the hill,” she said.
Families played field
games, enjoyed a hayride
and danced to music during
the event. Eight families
brought their tents and sleeping
bags to camp overnight
at Commissioners Park and
enjoyed an outdoor movie
with popcorn and a continental
breakfast in the morning.
“This is about the fifth
year for this event, which
welcomes fall," said Cali Debella,
special events coordinator
for the Frankfort Park
District. "This is our second
year doing the overnight
campout. We’ve had a little
over 100 attend the event
this evening. Some families
have put up their tents to
spend the night. They will be
seeing the movie 'Monsters
Inc.' and then they get to
have quiet time and we feed
them a small breakfast in the
morning."
Debella said the Frankfort
Park District is also planning
an upcoming Halloween
Haunting event, scheduled
for 6-9 p.m. Friday, Oct. 19,
at the Founders Community
Center.
“Wristbands are $10 to get
in; adults are free," she said.
"There will be a haunted hayride
and a pumpkin patch as
well as a magic show, a DJ,
games and more. The entire
Founders Center gets turned
into Halloween Zone.”
At the campfire, Nalia
Stopka, 9, of New Lenox,
said she hoped her camping
experience would be better
than the first time.
"Last time I camped I was
a troublemaker,” she said,
laughing. "It had rained and
I pushed the mattress over
and got the rain all in the
tent. I’m looking forward
to the bonfire the hayride
and spending time with the
girls.”
Frankfort resident Amy
Morris and her daughter
have made the annual event
a tradition.
“This is such a great way
to kick off fall," Morris said.
“Last year I celebrated my
daughter’s birthday here on
the day of this event. We did
her party here by Frankfort
Fort, then went over to the
park and did the hayrides
and campfire. After that we
let balloons go and make a
wish for her."
Gina Hassett, executive
director of the Frankfort
Park District, couldn’t stop
laughing as her air mattresses
kept flying out of the cab
of her truck.
“I organized the first campout
last year and brought
it back this year," she said.
“Many families want to get
outdoors but sometimes
there are just challenges.
This gives people an entry
opportunity to get your tent
out, learn how to put it up
and camp out in your own
community. This allows
families to get back home
enough the next morning to
get to soccer practices and
dance classes.”
Hassett said she and her
Claire Wolfe, 11, of Frankfort, helps her family put up a tent Friday, Sept. 21, during the

daughter learned something
by sleeping outside at Commissioners
Park.
“You don’t realize how
loud the cars are,” Hassett
said. “We are a little bit
from Laraway Road but still
heard the cars throughout
the night. I never knew how
much it gets dark out here.
Once those soccer lights are
off and the parking lights are
off you get a good opportunity
to see the stars.”
She added she makes an
effort to plan her events
around families and fun.
“It’s really important for
families to get time together
... being outdoors is important
as well," Hassett said.
"We are so fast-paced; this
allows you to put your phone
away and take time to make
memories. When they look
back at their childhood we
hope they think back to these
moments. That’s what we’re
here to do ... make memories.”

Getting older can mean
dealing with the new or unexpected.
But 22nd Century
Media is aiming to make that
outlook a little less murky.
The fourth annual Active
Aging – An Expo for Ages 50+
is scheduled for 9 a.m.-1 p.m.
Saturday, Oct. 6, at the Tinley
Park Convention Center, located
at 18451 Convention Center
Drive, in the Exhibit North
section. The event, which is
sponsored by DuPage Medical
Group and Ingalls Health
System, features more than 30
vendors.
“The expo offers a lot in
terms of the different services
available, especially in
the local area,” said Heather
Warthen, chief events officer
for 22nd Century Media. “We
have everything from medical
and financial [services] to
health and travel. It really runs
the gamut for our aging population.”
With so many services and
businesses to learn about, the
expo provides an excellent
learning opportunity for expogoers
— not to mention convenience.
“I think it’s great, because
it’s almost like a one-stop
shop,” Warthen said of the
expo. “A lot of the time, it
would take someone several
appointments or time out of
their day to meet with individual
people [or businesses]
like this. I think this is a great
opportunity to hit all of the different
resources in one spot.”
New to this year’s expo is
the winner of the 2018 Orland
Township Senior Idol contest,
Phil Orsi, who will be performing
from 10:30-11 a.m.
Also coming in for a cooking
demonstration is “the Unforgettable
Chef,” Tom Grotovsky,
from 11:4a5 a.m.-12:30
p.m.
“He has done this for Frankfort
Township seniors [in the
past], and we’re really excited
to have him,” Warthen said
of Grotovsky. “He’s also been
at our women’s expo the past
couple of years.”
Warthen said bingo — one
of the more popular aspects of
the expo — also is returning.
“That’s right, free games
of bingo for all, and we have
prizes,” Warthen said.
And as an extra incentive to
those who arrive early, free gift
bags will be given to the first
300 attendees to walk through
the expo doors.
Mapping out the best expo
experience
With this being the fourth
year of the Active Aging
expo, Warthen has seen it all.
In particular, she’s figured out
several strategies and tips for
people planning on attending
this year’s event.
The first? Plan ahead of
time.
Warthen suggests visiting
www.22ndcenturymedia.com/
aging. There, expo-goers can
take a look at the list of vendors
and make a list of which
ones they absolutely want to
see during their visit to the convention
center.

“As we conducted a
further investigation, we
learned that there was a
business in Chicago that

used fraudulently,” Keegan
said. “They were deprived
of more than $12,000.”

Frankfort Park District presentation
to discuss navigating Social Security
Submitted by Bentron
Financial Group
Residents who will collect
Social Security benefits
in the next 10 years are encouraged
to invest an hour
on Wednesday, Oct. 10, in
Frankfort at a free session
led by a retirement expert.
Starting at 6:30 p.m., retirement
expert Greg Kurinec
of Bentron Financial
Group will offer a lively
presentation at the Founders
Community Center, 140
Oak St.
The session will help
people gauge where their
unique circumstances fit into
the bigger Social Security
picture. To register for this
free program, please call the
Frankfort Park District at
(815) 469-9400.
Kurinec’s talk covers a
range of topics, including
the benefits of taking Social
Security, when to begin taking
them to maximize one’s
return, how the benefits are
affected when recipients
work while receiving them,
taxation of Social Security
benefits and spousal/widow
benefits.
The session is for those
who have not yet begun
receiving Social Security
benefits. Whether attendees
are 10 years shy of eligibility
or are eligible already
and mulling when to begin
the process, the interactive
meeting will span a range of
relevant issues.
One of the biggest reasons
for the session, Kurinec said,
is to correct flawed counsel
that has permeated the industry
for years.
The thinking used to
be, `Who knows how long
you’re going to live? Get
the money as quick as you
can,’” Kurinec noted.
But that strategy flies in
the face of the population’s
increasing longevity. Those
Greg Kurinec, of Bentron
Financial Group, will lead
a presentation on Social
Security on Oct. 10 at the
Founders Community
Center in Frankfort.

in their 60s, he said, should
anticipate living another 30
years.
“People are living so
much longer than they ever
have before,” Kurinec said.
“And unlike your investment
accounts, your social
security check stays the
same or goes up over time.
It’s a check that you can
never outlive and it’s vital
that you look hard at your
best strategy to get the biggest
check for the longest
period of time.”
Currently, the earliest age
people can collect Social
Security is 62. However,
the benefit is reduced by 30
percent if they begin taking
Social Security that early—
and by the time they are 72
to 75, the advantage of early
benefits has evaporated.
The normal age for beginning
to receive benefits
is 67 and the latest it can
be deferred to is 70. A typical
monthly Social Security
check is now climbing toward
$1,500, though there
is nothing typical about any
given individual, Kurinec
emphasized.
“These blanket strategies
for approaching Social Security
simply don’t work,”
he said. “Everyone’s situation
is so unique and specific.”
To anyone who is skeptical
that Social Security will
remain intact in the coming
years, Kurinec has a firm
message: “I believe strongly
that Social Security will
be around for future generations.
We need to believe
that and we need to demand
that.”
Kurinec began with
Bentron, based in Downers
Grove, in 2004. He has
helped people at or near retirement
through investment
advising, estate planning,
risk management and watching
out for their overall financial
well-being.
A lifelong resident of Orland
Park, he is a graduate
of Purdue University’s College
of Consumer and Family
Sciences, having earned
degrees in financial planning
and counseling, as well as
selling and sales management.
In addition to his “Go to
Greg” column, which has
appeared in the Naperville
Patch, Kurinec has served
as an expert source and been
quoted in publications ranging
from Consumer Affairs
and Insure.com to FINS Finance
and MySuburbanLife.
com.
In 2012, after his mother,
Jeanne, lost her life to cancer,
Kurinec and his two
siblings founded “Jeanne’s
Journey for Hope” to help
other families battle the
disease in its many forms.
Since then, the foundation
has raised more than
$75,000 to help families pay
hospital and medical bills or
as income replacement if the
disease has resulted in a loss
of employment.

D157-C welcomes
new staff members
Submitted by frankfort
D157-C
Administrators and four
members of the Frankfort
School District 157-C Board
of Education welcomed a
group of roughly three dozen
new teachers and staff members
prior to the regular Sept.
19 Board of Education meeting
at Grand Prairie Elementary
School.
Superintendent Maura
Zinni said she was grateful to
the staff for joining the district
and for all of their work
during the first month of the
2018-2019 school year.
All three of the district’s
principals introduced new
staff from their buildings
who were in attendance and
provided some background
about their careers and their
positions in the district.
Many new staff members
said they were grateful to
be part of the district, citing
the close culture and team
environment, as well as the
enthusiasm students have for
learning.
Cassidy Smith, fifth-grade
teacher at Chelsea Intermediate
School, said that staff
in the district have been
very helpful, and she always
knows where to go for help.
“It’s an honor to work for
such a good district,” fifthgrade
teacher Michelle Fagan
added. “Already, I feel
like a member of the family.
Teachers are so cared for in
this district, and you feel that
right away.”
Adam Tourlakes, a paraprofessional
and reading
interventionist at Hickory
Creek Middle School, said he
is amazed at how energized
the students are to learn and
how positive they are.
“Every day, I learn something
from the students and
other teachers,” he said. “It
is a family, and everybody
really cares about students
and each other. I enjoy coming
here because of the atmosphere
the district has created.”
Eighth-grade special
education teacher Sheryl
O’Rourke added that staff
members’ willingness to
build each other up and work
together sets Frankfort apart
from other districts.
Board of Education President
Gina Briese thanked all
of the staff for joining the
district and said that she was
proud to have them on board.

Library program addresses healthy
habits for an aging body and mind
Discussion
addresses ways for
seniors to stay active
and aware
Amanda Stoll, Assistant Editor
It is a disease with no cure
and no prevention, but it is
not without hope.
Hadi Finerty, of the Alzheimer’s
Association, met
with seniors Sept. 13 at the
Frankfort Public Library
District to address the scary
reality of Alzheimer’s and
dementia.
Finerty said most times
she gives the presentation,
attendees want to know if
they will get the disease or if
they already have it.
“They’re looking to see
what the signs are and [if]
they have any of the signs,”
she said.
The thing is, sometimes
there is not a definite answer
to their questions.
While family history and
genetics can play a part in
determining whether someone
will be diagnosed with
Alzheimer’s or another form
of dementia in their lifetimes,
just because someone
is genetically predisposed
to get the disease does not
mean they will.
Instead of dwelling on statistics
and worrying about it,
Finerty said it is important
for people to talk about it
and learn as much as they
can.
“Whether that’s talking
about it to your family, talking
about it to your spouse
[or] talking about it to your
doctor, talk about it, because
everybody automatically assumes
it’s Alzheimer’s or
dementia, and it might not
even be that,” she said.
The general effects of aging
can make it hard to recall
details like names, places
or words, but in most cases
people eventually remember
those things if it is just agerelated
forgetfulness. With
Alzheimer’s and dementia,
she said, it is different.
Finerty offered attendees
tips on general health for
both the mind and body,
which she said really are just
good bits of advice for anyone
— no matter their age.
Getting up and moving,
eating right, keeping the
mind active and staying engaged
socially are the four
main things she focused on
doing to help keep seniors
healthy as they age.
She suggested simple actions
like switching hands
while brushing their teeth
as a small way to change up
their daily routine and get
their brain working in ways
it does not usually.
“Some of these things we
obviously already know, but
the presentation just helps
us kind of put everything together,”
she said.
Murial Long, 87, who attended
the presentation with
a few of her friends, said she
is already taking steps to
keep herself active and socially
engaged as she ages.
“I’m trying to get out more
to get with people,” she said.
Admittedly, she said
sometimes the words she
is looking for do not come
easily, which makes her
question whether it is just
because she is getting older
or if it is something more serious.
“You worry about it.
You’re talking to somebody
and all the sudden you can’t
get the word out,” Long said.
But she exercises regularly

fitness class in Frankfort,

Vicki Novak, 84, keeps

“just to learn more about
how to prevent it if it’s at all
possible.”
While Finerty said scientists
currently do not have
any answers on preventing
the disease, there are studies
being done that are focusing
on exactly that, as well as
ways to slow down the progression
of the disease.

Indian Trail students gain musical skills
Submitted by Indian Trail
School
Music students at Indian
Trail are off to a great start
for the year. All students
have begun their “Color
Rhythms” floor drumming
unit. The instrumental unit
teaches students to incorporate
changing rhythmic
patterns into their playing
through call-and-response
ear training, large group
unison drumming and drumming
in parts and rounds.
The September vocal
unit for second-fourth graders
is “Songs of America.”
Students will sing a variety
of songs including folk
songs, patriotic songs and

their singing.
Providence Catholic students earn
awards for AP exam achievement
Submitted by Providence
Catholic High School
Providence Catholic High
School principal John Harper
announced that 51 students
earned Advanced Placement
Awards by the College Board
in recognition of their exceptional
achievement on the college-level
Advanced Placement
Program Exams. Ten
are current seniors and 40 are
members of the class of 2018.
“We are extremely proud
of these talented young men
and women who strive for
academic excellence,” Harper
said.
At Providence, thirty-five
students qualified for the AP
Scholar Award by earning an
average grade of at least a 3
or higher on three or more AP
exams. Nine graduates qualified
for the AP Scholar with
Honor Award by earning an
average grade of at least
3.25 on all AP Exams taken,
and grades of 3 of higher on
four or more of these exams.
Seven students were Scholars
with Distinction for receiving
an average score of at least
3.5 on all AP Exams taken.
Additionally, 2018 graduate
Tiangi Hu, of Frankfort,
was recognized as a National
AP Scholar for receiving an
average score of at least 4
on all AP Exams taken, and
scores of 4 or higher on 8
or more of these exams. Hu
attends the University of Illinois,
Urbana majoring in
Computer Science.
The College Board’s Advanced
Placement Program
provides motivated and academically
prepared students
with the opportunity to take
rigorous college-level courses
while still in high school
and to earn college credit,
advanced placement or both
for successful performance
on the AP exams. About 18
percent of the 1.8 million students
worldwide who took AP
exams performed at a sufficiently
high level to also earn
an AP Scholar Award. AP is
accepted by more than 3,800
colleges and universities
worldwide. Research consistently
shows that AP students
who score a 3 or higher on
AP exams (based on a scale
from 1 to 5, with 5 being the
highest) typically experience
greater academic success in
college and higher graduation
rates than students who do not
participate in AP. Providence
Catholic offers 18 Advanced
Placement classes.

FROM THE TINLEY JUNCTION
Tinley Park mom jogging
to raise awareness for
daughter’s rare disease
In 2006 there were only
200 known cases of congenital
central hypoventilation
syndrome worldwide. As of
2008, that number had increased
to 1,000, according
to the U.S. National Library
of Medicine. A decade later,
advocates still place that
number around 1,200.
Tinley Park native Laura
Brown and her husband
Jeff’s 18-month old daughter,
Josie, is one of them.
She was born with a mutated
PHOX2B gene which
medical researchers have
discovered helps the body
and brain regulate normal
breathing at the molecular
level. Effectively, Josie’s
autonomic nervous system
fails to connect signals that
tell the lungs to pump oxygen.
Simply going to sleep
can be fatal.
“There were unexplained
periods of respiratory distress
where she wasn’t
breathing right,” Brown recalled.
“It was really scary.”
A “fighter” as described
by Laura, Josie was born
five weeks premature and
spent close to five of her first
six months of life in the Pediatric
Intensive Care Unit
at Hope Children’s Hospital.
A forward-thinking doctor
correctly predicted Josie’s
respiratory issues, which at
this point had required the
use of a ventilation machine,
could be CCHS. An intricate
genetic testing process
would later confirm.
To bring awareness of
CCHS Laura has organized
“Jogging for Josie” in an effort
to raise $12,000 for the
nonprofit CCHS Network
by partaking in the Chicago
Marathon on Oct. 7. The
number was doubled after
reaching her initial goal of
$6,000, or $5 for each of the
1,200 known cases.
“She’s one tough cookie
— my hero for sure,” Laura
said.

FROM THE MOKENA MESSENGER
‘Control beyond the grave’
The old Boy Scout motto,
“Be prepared,” can be applied
to many things in life,
and can especially be applied
to death.
Contemplating one’s own
mortality can be an uncomfortable
thing, but facing the
questions about what would
happen to those left behind
is essential to ensure that
those loved ones receive
what one’s final wishes
wanted them to receive.
That’s why Skye Bergeson
and Richard Rappold
held an estate planning seminar
at Mokena Community
Public Library District Sept.
18. Bergeson is a financial
advisor with Edward Jones
in Mokena, and Rappold
is an attorney who lives in
Frankfort and practices out
of Chicago.
According to Bergeson,
an estate plan should involve
the services of a financial
advisor to help manage
assets, a tax professional to
keep an eye on the tax laws
to make sure those assets
are protected under everchanging
tax code, and an
attorney to help keep assets
from being bogged down in
court and not fulfilling one’s
wishes in a timely manner.
Any estate plan should be
specific to an individual, as
everyone’s circumstances
and goals will be different;
however, the individual,
along with the estate planning
team of the financial
advisor, tax professional
and attorney, should monitor
and re-evaluate the plan
every six months to a year,
Burgeson said.

FROM THE ORLAND PARK PRAIRIE
Friends, family rally around
youth with rare blood
disorder
As a nurse, Orland Park
resident Mandy Granat has
devoted her professional life
to mitigating the pain and
discomfort of those in her
care.
Most difficult of all was
being confronted by medical
uncertainty regarding
her 11-year-old son, Luke
Granat.
When he was 8, Luke
started to exhibit symptoms
like abdominal pain and
nausea.
“We spent about a year
having him be misdiagnosed,”
Mandy said. “They
thought it was allergic reactions.
As a nurse, it made
sense at the time. When he
had the abdominal pain,
he spent five days at Hope
Children’s Hospital and the
tests came back normal.”
The severity of the reactions
intensified. After a series
of complex blood tests,
doctors discovered that
Luke suffers from a rare genetic
blood disorder called
Hereditary Angioedema.
“I never even heard of it,”
Mandy said.
On average, only about
one in 10,000-50,000 people
suffer from HAE.
In May, Mandy and Luke
traveled to Vienna, Austria,
to attend a patient and doctor
symposia.
Luke also is a member of
the Youth Leadership Council
for the USA HAEA. In
July, he appeared at Capitol
Hill to advocate for increased
federal funding for
the disease.
The family also has
sought to raise awareness
closer to home. In 2017,
the family held a 5K run in
Danada Forest Preserve in
Wheaton. Nearly 30 people
turned up.
The family held another
event this August. Mobilizing
Facebook and other social
media to shape word of
mouth around Orland Park
and Tinley Park, the number
jumped up to 130 this year.
“He needs the support of
his friends more than anything
at this stage,” Mandy
said. “The event made him
feel so good.”

FROM THE NEW LENOX PATRIOT
After Senior Night score,
West boys golf excited for
upcoming regional
A back injury kept senior
Collin Phelps from playing
golf for 10 days.
Lincoln-Way West’s Senior
Night on Sept. 18 was
his first time swinging a
club since suffering that injury.
Against Plainfield East
at The Sanctuary, he didn’t
know what to expect.
“My mentality for today
was just to enjoy it and not
care what I shoot because
no one was expecting me
to do good having been out
a week and a half,” Phelps
said.
As some golfers may take
a round or two to work back
to normalcy on the golf
course, it only took Phelps
a few shots. The four-year
varsity member carded a 38,
which is under his scoring
average of 38.5, to contribute
to a winning score of
151-193 over the Bengals.
“I kept my swing and
didn’t really over swing
because my back still hurts
a little bit,” he said. “I just
kept calm.”
The team’s only other senior,
Dylan Adair, fittingly
was the medalist with a 36.
Phelps’ younger brother,
Zack, shot a 37, and a 40
was the fourth posted score
by both Jason Lange and
Ethan Healy.
West will join a star-studded
cast at the Joliet Central
Regional Tuesday, Oct. 2,
at Inwood Golf Course in
Joliet. SWSC leader Lockport,
Lincoln-Way Central,
Lincoln-Way East and Providence
are some of the teams
in the nine-school field vying
for the Top 3 spots to
advance to sectionals.
“If they keep up these
scores, we’ll see,” West
coach Donna Thompson
said. “I’ll be happy if we go
to sectionals as a team.”

Light pole falls on, injures
three Butler School students
A light pole fell and injured
three fourth-grade
students after striking them
while they were at recess
Sept. 17 outside Butler
School in Lockport, according
to Homer Community
Consolidated School District
33C.
The district posted a message
on its Facebook page
Monday afternoon stating
that all three children were
evaluated at a local hospital
and were “okay.”
Homer 33C Superintendent
Craig Schoppe said
the incident happened at approximately
11:40 a.m. in
front of the school.
“The district’s first concern
is the safety and wellbeing
of our students,” the
district said in a statement,
which was provided to The
Horizon on Sept. 19. “Due
to the fact that this involves
individual students, and we
are currently investigating
the incident, the district has
no further comment.”

From the Editor
Library project a unique
look at community
Nuria Mathog
nuria@frankfortstation.com
If a picture tells a thousand
words, a collection of
artwork surely contains
enough stories to fill a library.
That's the concept behind
the Frankfort Public Library
District's Self-Portrait Project,
which invites Frankfort residents
to participate in workshops
and create images of
themselves using a variety of
mediums, such as paintings,
collages and digital photography.
The completed artwork
will be on display at the library
throughout the month of
November, and there is also
a gala celebration scheduled
from 2-4 p.m. Nov. 11.
The library will accept submissions
from Frankfort residents
or library cardholders of
all ages from Oct. 15-26, and
submission instructions and
guidelines can be found online
at www.frankfortlibrary.
org/spp.
I think the project is a fantastic
idea, and I look forward
to seeing the variety of works
of art Frankfort residents produce
throughout the next few
weeks. The exhibit provides a
unique chance to see the community
through the eyes of
the people who inhabit it — a
one-of-a-kind snapshot of
Frankfort at a particular point
in time.
Art has both aesthetic and
historical value, and the selfportraits
created by Frankfort
residents will leave a lasting
impact, as the library plans to
archive a copy of each piece
of artwork in its collection.
This is a very special opportunity
to create a part of
Frankfort history, and I highly
encourage readers to submit
portraits to the project in the
medium of their choice.
I was a very shy child
growing up, and art has
always played a very special
role in my life. It has served
as a way to channel my creativity,
express moments of
inspiration (and occasionally
frustration), or simply pass
the time on a rainy day. There
is something profoundly
wonderful about transforming
one's thoughts and ideas into
a physical, tangible depiction,
an image that captures shades
and nuances that words alone
cannot always express, and I
hope residents who participate
in the project find that special
joy as well.
The library's self-portrait
project highlights not just the
artistic talents of Frankfort
residents but also the diversity
the community has to offer.
I can't wait to head over to
the library in November and
check out the completed
works for myself.

said Forrest told him a

to get off.
Forrest was standing further
away from the pole
when it then came down and
hit him in his back, according
to what he told Scellato.
The 9-year-old suffered a
fractured rib as a result and
was transported via ambulance

as were the other two

Man charged for anti-
Muslim vandalism in Homer
Glen
A man has been charged
for vandalizing a sidewalk
with Islamophobic graffiti
Sept. 17 in front of a Muslim
family’s Homer Glen
home, according to a Sept.
20 release from the Will
County Sheriff’s Office.
Patrick J. Goshorn Jr.,
26, of 13057 Finch Court in
Homer Glen, was charged
with one count of felony
criminal damage to property
and one count of felony
criminal damage to statesupported
property by the
sheriff’s office. The case
was turned over to the Will
County State’s Attorney’s
Office for review, and the
office announced additional
charges of a felony and misdemeanor
count of criminal
defacement to property and
one count of a hate crime,
bringing the total to five
charges.
One of the homeowners
originally called police
about 8 p.m. Sept. 17 after
discovering the graffiti outside
their home in the 13000
block of W. Sparrow Court,
according to Will County
Sheriff’s Office spokeswoman
Kathy Hoffmeyer.
In addition to the graffiti
— which mocked the common
Muslim phrase “peace
be upon him” with an obscene
variation — the taillights,
trunk and bumper of
the homeowners’ vehicle, a
2013 Toyota, were covered
in brown spray paint, according
to Hoffmeyer.
After appearing in video
court on Thursday, Sept. 20,
Goshorn had his bond set
at $100,000, with 10 percent
to apply. A condition of
his bond states that if he is
able to bond out, he will be
released with an electronic
monitoring device and will
not be allowed to be within
3,000 feet of the vandalized
home.
Goshorn’s next court date
is set for Oct. 11 at the Will
County Courthouse.

'Selfie' self-portraits paint a picture of the people of Frankfort
Rochelle mcauliffe
Freelance Reporter
The next Van Gogh or
Frida Kahlo could have been
budding under the roof of
the Frankfort Public Library
on Wednesday, Sept. 19, as
artists expressed themselves
with paint on canvas at the
“Selfie” Portraits Workshop.
Under the lead of professional
folk artist Dana Bloede,
the two-hour painting
workshop guided artists as
they painted a 9x12 portrait
of themselves, kicking off the
Frankfort Public Library District’s
Self-Portrait Project.
The Self-Portrait Project
aims to reveal what Frankfort
is as a community by inviting
residents of all ages and
backgrounds to show who
they are. For the entire month
of November, the west end
of the library will be transformed
with the faces of
Frankfort, with a Gala Celebration
for the event scheduled
from 2 to 4 p.m. Nov. 11.
“Our vision with the Self-
Portrait Project is to find out
who we are and how do we
define ourselves as a community
and see a glimpse of the
people of Frankfort,” said Jill
Ganeshan, the reference and
reader services librarian at
the Frankfort Public Library.
The “Selfie” Portraits
Workshop was the first of the
three classes offered as part
of the Self-Portrait Project.
Throughout the next month,
the Frankfort Public Library
District will be offering multiple
workshops working in
various mediums to help the
residents of Frankfort capture
their self-portrait – no experience
necessary. With a class
teaching self-portrait photography
on smartphones, as
well as a self-portrait through
collage, anyone can come
away with a work of art that
truly is their own.
“I can draw figures really
well, but I cannot [draw]
faces," joked Teri Young of
Frankfort. "I used to draw
Mickey Mouse and stuff up
people’s walls, but I can never
get the faces. Animals and
cartoons? No problem, but
faces? I’m terrible."
Young said she hoped that
the selfie workshop would
help her to grow in her selfexpression
as an artist, but
also to help improve her
skills.
“You take away a lot from
these classes,” Young said. “I
know people who have taken
classes here before because
they’re very detailed. They
teach you techniques and
brush strokes that you probably
you wouldn’t learn at
your home.”
Using a photo for reference,
Bloede guided the
group through the steps of
painting their self-portrait
masterpieces. Beginning with
an underpainting to outline
their subject, she then guided
them through the tonal values
of the image before building
up layers of color.
“Self-portraits are very
personal; it’s just a very personal
thing to take a look at
yourself and really dig deep
and figure out what you want
to portray on the canvas,”
Bloede said. “In a two-hour
workshop, they have a complete
self-portrait to take
home and they can’t believe
that they’ve made something
so great. They’re really impressed
with themselves.”
Each self-portrait in the
room was as varied as the
person painting it. Some
were rooted in realism, others
in abstract, but all the
self-portraits were rooted in
Frankfort.
“They say a picture is
worth a thousand words …
These photos are visual literacy.”
Ganeshan said. “A project
like this is kind of like a
moment of our town in time.”
Dana Bloede, pictured holding a self-portrait as an example, leads the Frankfort Public Library District’s first Self-Portrait
Project workshop Sept. 19. Bloede has been painting for more than 20 years and has been teaching for the last five.

get out of town!
Indianapolis: a great place to catch a movie (seriously)
Find fantastic food,
drink and games at
the Crossroads of
America
Bill Jones, Managing Editor
I once made an overnight
trip to Indianapolis with the
primary purpose of seeing a
movie.
Silly, right?
After all, any suburb that
doesn’t have a theater nowadays
probably has one next
door. And most are a far cry
from the multiplexes of yore
— upgraded with reclining
seats, full bars and extensive
menus. IMAX no longer requires
a trip to Navy Pier.
And Dolby Atmos speaker
systems and state-of-the-art
projection have become the
norm.
So why drive two-and-ahalf
hours for a movie?
Well, in my case, it was
all about “Dunkirk.” While
I could have caught it down
the street, director Christopher
Nolan released the
film in a number of formats.
The “best” combination
was supposed to be 70mm
IMAX, but only 31 theaters
across the United States
were showing it that way.
The closest was the IMAX
at Indiana State Museum in
Indianapolis.
Worth it? The movie was
great, though it wouldn’t
have been too diminished
by a more convenient theater.
But nowadays, a movie
needs to be event viewing if
I’m going out to see it. So
why not go way, way out
to see it — really make an
event of it?
And it is a wonderful auditorium.
While IMAX varies
in size nowadays, the
one at the museum is the
full enchilada. The screen
is enormous, the seating
stadium-style, the sound
booming. The black leather,
branded chairs also were
incredibly comfy, and it
was immaculately clean (no
sticky floors!). Just don’t go
too hungry. The concessions
were still entrenched in the
1990s — popcorn, soft
drinks and candy. Instead ...
On the way
Stop at Locally Grown
Gardens, roughly halfway
between downtown and Interstate
405 due north. It’s
a year-round farm market,
owned by a chef. So, there
are plenty of cool things to
find inside the shop, both
in terms of food and knickknacks.
But there also is a
limited seasonal menu, utilizing
some of those fresh
ingredients and highlighting
smoked meats.
If it’s on, get the grilled
salmon filet. And if the
weather is nice and the wind
isn’t carrying too much from
those smokers in your direction,
enjoy the outside eating
space.
While you’re there
Grab a beer at The Koelschip,
Central State Brewing’s
de facto taproom that
also serves a variety of others’
brews. It’s a cool spot
and taps some good beer.
Just pass on the Underberg
— while produced in Germany,
it’s basically Indy’s
Malört.
Before you leave
Get yourself into Milktooth.
Its name bothers me
on a deep level, but it’s a
hip brunch spot that actually
lives up to the hype. It’s best
if you can grab a seat along
the kitchen counter to watch
the magic happen. I’m not
going to tell you what to order.
But if they’re busy or
you’re in a hurry, don’t overlook
the counter for pastries
and coffee.
Reader-traveler tips
Other reasons to make a trip
Sports fans already know
they can catch the Colts and
the 500 in Indy, but go for
the Big Ten Championship.
It’s been at Lucas Oil Stadium
the past few years and is
slated to be there for at least
a few more. One of college
football’s biggest title
games takes over the neighborhood
with a convention,
block party and more. So if,
say, Iowa ends up a heartbreaker,
you can still have
some fun.
In August, Indy plays host
to the biggest tabletop gaming
convention in the United
States, Gen Con. In addition
to the opportunity to try a
number of games, downtown
is saturated with costumes
and themed activities
over those four days. It’s a
lot of fun.
Get out of Town! is a monthly
travel column focusing on
relatively local destinations
and activities, with helpful tips,
readers’ stories and more.
“Go with the flow. No trip is
perfect, and the lasting stories are
in the bumps in the road, not the
perfection!”
Susan Walter Glover
“My new bride Marissa Miglio
and I are currently enjoying our
honeymoon in Maui, HI! Budget
time wisely. Go on the Road to Hana
excursion if you can! It’s amazing!”
Joe Miglio
“Wherever I travel, I mail myself a
postcard from the place I’ve visited.
I list all of the sites I’ve seen and
activities that I did on that trip. It’s
fun to receive the postcard after
being home for a week or so, and
reminisce about my trip!”
Suzie McKeon
The theater at the Indiana State Museum was one of few
across the country that screened “Dunkirk” in 70mm IMAX.
Despite its sign at the time, it is, indeed, a theater. Go on in;
the temperature is just fine. Bill Jones/22nd Century Media
Packing it in
Tips for packing light from
Assistant Editor Amanda
Stoll
Whether you are going
away for a weekend or
a week, it is possible to
pack everything into a
single, carry-on sized
bag with a little bit of
strategic packing. Here
are some tips to keep
you from overpacking on
your next trip.
1. Shoes
Shoes can be a serious
space-sucker in your
luggage. Instead of
packing all the shoes
you would normally wear
in a week, try to limit
yourself to 2-3 pairs of
shoes. One of those,
preferably the bulkiest,
can be your travel shoes.
For me, that’s usually
my running shoes, which
also happen to be the
comfiest for traveling.
For the ones left in your
luggage: flatten them,
if possible, or use the
space inside to pack
socks, undies or other
small items.
2. Clothing
While you might not
want to wear the same
shirt twice, you likely
can wear the same
pair of pants or shorts
a few times. The same
goes for sweaters,
accessories and shoes.
Lay out all of your
clothes while packing
and see how many
different combinations
you can make while
using some of the same
pieces.
3. Eliminate non-essentials
Limit the size of your
bag, and let that dictate
how much stuff you
need to bring. If it
doesn’t fit, it doesn’t go.
The chances are you
have packed more than
you need. Prioritize what
you need to bring and
get rid of that second —
or third — pair of jeans.

Ballet 5:8 awarded second Illinois Arts Council Agency grant
Submitted by Ballet 5:8
Ballet 5:8, a Frankfortbased
nonprofit arts organization,
has been awarded a
second grant from the Illinois
Arts Council Agency in the
amount of $12,900 for general
operating support. The
grant will be partially supporting
operations between
September 2018 and August
2019. Ballet 5:8 is committed
to investing in Illinois communities,
artists and residents
through high-quality, accessible
dance education and
performance and is thrilled
to have this operating support
for the 2018/19 season.
Ballet 5:8’s investment in
the people of Illinois each
year begins with the 20-plus
adult professional dancers and
teachers whom the company
both employs locally and attracts
to relocate to Illinois in
order to work with Ballet 5:8.

part of this mission. Through
a high-caliber trainee program,
the company is able to
bring many of these young
artists to Illinois in their formative
career years, providing
the final training and professional
performing experience
they need to begin their own
professional careers.
Ballet 5:8’s professional
artists participate in the process
of creating brand new,
all-original full-length performances
in Frankfort. The
company’s goal with each
new ballet is to create beautiful,
engaging experiences
through the combination of
innovative storytelling and
breathtaking dance. Ballet 5:8
performances invite people to
participate in open conversation
about life and faith topics,
regardless of what viewpoint
they hold. Projects in Ballet
5:8’s most recently completed
season include the premiere of

a collection of original ballets
called “Compass,” themed
on navigating cultural tension
with compassion, and
performances of “Scarlet,” a
groundbreaking ballet-film
hybrid production based on
Nathaniel Hawthorne’s famous
novel “The Scarlet Letter.”
Slager’s newest work,
“The Space in Between,” set
to premiere in October, is set
on a bus ride between heaven
and hell, drawing inspiration
from C.S. Lewis’s work
“The Great Divorce.” Ballet
5:8 professional artists also
perform select roles in Illinois
performances by the dance
education center Ballet 5:8
School of the Arts. These performances,
held at Lincoln-
Way West High School in
New Lenox, include “Beyond
the Nutcracker,” a holiday
tale and local favorite in the
Chicago south suburbs, set to
Tchaikovsky’s famous Nutcracker
score.
Ballet 5:8’s performances
bring the inspiration of professional
ballet not only to
communities in the heart of
Chicago’s arts and theater
districts but also to communities
with little or no immediate
access to professional arts.
Recent and upcoming Illinois
performance locations include
the Athenaeum Theatre in
Chicago, Lincoln-Way West
High School Fine Arts Center
in New Lenox, the Hemmens
Cultural Center in Elgin, Illinois
Central College in East
Peoria, the Scottish Rite Cathedral
in Moline, Urbana
High School Auditorium in
Urbana and Trinity Christian
College in Palos Heights.
Ticketed and free performances
were shared by a total
of 12,900 audience members
in Illinois during the 2017/18
performing season. Thanks
to funding from individual
donors and sources such as
the the Illinois Arts Council
Agency, Ballet 5:8 is able to
keep its performance ticket
prices ranging from $12-$35
for most performances, in
addition to participating in a
number of free-to-the-public
performances.
Upcoming free performances
include performances
at the farmers market in Daley
Plaza in downtown Chicago
on Sept. 27 and at the Harold
Washington Library Center in
Chicago on Jan. 31. Performances
like these ensure that
Ballet 5:8’s work remains accessible
to community members
from many different
socioeconomic backgrounds.
Ballet 5:8’s donor funding additionally
enables the organization
to work with charitable
nonprofits to provide reducedcost
and donated performance
tickets to the homeless, families
who have children with
mental and physical disabilities,
inner-city schools, military
veterans and others.
Ballet 5:8 also has the privilege
of being able to invest
in Illinois through accessible
high-caliber dance education.
More than 250 Illinois
children and youth receive
dance instruction from Ballet
5:8’s professional artists
each year, and many of these
young dancers will become
professional artists of tomorrow.
In Ballet 5:8’s school,
which also attracts students
from across the U.S., the
wellbeing of each individual
dancer is valued just as much
as the dancer’s potential in the
field. Ballet 5:8 has multiple
distinct training divisions and
classes available that range
from pre-professional level
classical ballet training to
recreational classes in a wide
variety of dance disciplines.
In time, the young artists who
participate in these programs
will be ready to go out into
the state and across the country:
whole, healthy, strong
and creative artists who can
continue Ballet 5:8’s work of
bringing the joy and beauty of
dance and meaningful discussion
into their communities.

The Dish
Bonefish Grill offers specials for all seasons
T.J. Kremer III, Contributing Editor
Fall's arrival can mean only one
thing at Bonefish Grill: new menu
items, including dishes and libations,
designed specifically for the
season.
Bonefish Grill, which this
month is celebrating its five-year
anniversary in Orland Park, is
well-known for its fresh, delivered
daily selection of fish, and
often features new, seasonal items
added to its menu.
One of the new catches will
be Rockefeller butterfish, also
known as black cod or sablefish,
served with a Rockefeller topping
of cream spinach, cheeses, lemon
butter and crabmeat, and a side of
broccoli and a side of mashed potatoes
($29.90).
“We like to call it butterfish,
because it’s really prized for its
intensely rich butter flavor to it;
hence, the nickname butterfish. ...
A lot of people compare it to a sea
bass,” managing partner Nicholas
Kapellas said.
Also making its fall debut is a
hearty cut of swordfish with pumpkin
ravioli, sprinkled with feta
cheese, crispy shallots and a butter
sauce ($23.90).
“We utilize a lot of the fall flavors,
and so, obviously, you think
fall, you think pumpkin,” Kapellas
said.
Then there are the new drinks
because, well, what goes more
naturally with fish than water, and
alcohol is wet like water, so it’s a
win-win situation.
The Fall Apple Martini uses apples
infused with vodka over three
days, house-made honey syrup and
a slice of apple sprinkled with cinnamon
($9.10).
Not new but making the cut for
another season on the menu is the
Coral Reef Punch: made with Bacardi
Maestro rum, Malibu rum,
passion fruit and house-made
vanilla bean simple syrup, freshsqueezed
pineapple and orange
juice, bitters, and a fresh pineapple
garnish ($9.30).
The swordfish with pumpkin ravioli ($23.90), sprinkled with feta cheese, crispy
shallots and a butter sauce.

But why limit the spirits when
one can take advantage of Bonefish’s
Monday special: $6 martinis
(after 4 p.m.). (Just be sure to bring
a designated driver if you plan to
sample all of the martinis.)
Tuesday’s special is Hooked on
Tuesdays — a three-course meal
with choice of salad, entrée and
dessert (starting at $14.90).
And on Wednesdays the famous
Bang Bang Shrimp is offered for
$6 all day.
“So you’ve got your Monday,
Tuesday and Wednesday
covered,” Kapellas said. “You
can see us at Bonefish Grill for
the first three days of the week,
and then come back on Saturday
and Sunday for brunch and endless
bubbles and endless bloody
mary’s ($10 with the purchase of
Bonefish Grill’s Rockefeller butterfish ($29.90) is served with served with a Rockefeller topping of cream spinach, cheeses,
lemon butter and crabmeat, and a side of broccoli and a side of mashed potatoes. Photos by T.J. Kremer III/22nd Century Media
an entrée for Bellinis, mimosas
or blackberry sangria, or $12 for
bloody marys).”
The Ocean Mixed Grill ($49) — which comes with an order of Bang Bang Shrimp,
salad, three sides and four fillets of fish — ends its run on the menu Sept. 30.
“We kind of search all the waters
for high-quality fish,” Kapellas
sad. “We try to find — especially
things that people maybe don’t try
everyday. And then we inspect it
and hand-cut it everyday.

Distinctive Home Builders Introduces New Craftsman Homes
In Manhattan and Peotone – From the mid-$200’s
New designs are a result of buyer feedback
Two refreshing designs mark
the beginning of a new series
of Craftsman-style homes
available from Distinctive Home
Builders at its latest new home
communities: Prairie Trails;
located in Manhattan within the
highly-regarded Lincoln-Way
School District and at WestGate
Manor in Peotone within
the desirable Peotone School
District.
“Craftsman homes were
introduced in the early 1900s
in California with designs
based on a simpler, functional
aesthetic using a higher level
of craftsmanship and natural
materials. These homes were a
departure from homes that were
mass produced from that era,
“according to Bryan Nooner,
president of Distinctive Home
Builders.
“The Craftsman design has
made a comeback today for
many of the same reasons it
started over a century ago. Our
customers want to live in a home
that gets away from the “mass
produced” look and live in a
home that has more character. As
a result of our daily interaction
with our homeowners and their
input, we are excited to introduce
these two homes, with additional
designs in the works.”
Nooner, who meets with
each homeowner prior to
construction, has been working
on these plans forawhile and felt
that the timing was ideal for the
debut. “Customers were asking
for something different and
simple with less monotony and
higher architectural standards.”
The result was the Craftsman
ranch and the Prairie twostory,
now available at Prairie
Trails and WestGate Manor.
The Craftsman ranch features
an open floor plan with Great
Room, three bedrooms, two
baths and a two-car (optional
three-car) garage. The Prairie
features a two-story foyer and
Great Room, three bedrooms
and one and one-half baths, a
convenient Flex Room space
on the main level and a two-car
(optional three-car) garage. The
Craftsman architectural elements
on both homes include brick and
stone exteriors with cedar shake
accent siding, low-pitched gabled
bracket roofs, front porches with
tapered columns and stone piers,
partially paned windows, and a
standard panel front entry door.
Distinctive Home Builders
offers a Craftsman-style trim
package offering trim without
ornate profiles and routers. The
trim features simplicity in design
with rectangles, straight lines and
layered look trims over doors for
example. The front entry door
will have the standard Craftsman
panel style door. Distinctive has
also created a Craftsman color
palate to assist buyers in making
coordinated choices for the
interior of their new Craftsman
home. Colors, cabinet styles and
flooring choices blend seamlessly
with the Craftsman trim package
and are available in gray tones
package and earth tones.
Distinctive offers custom maple
kitchen cabinets featuring solid
wood construction (no particle
board), have solid wood drawers
with dove tail joints, which is
very rare in the marketplace.
“When you buy a new home
from Distinctive, you truly are
receiving custom made cabinets
in every home we sell no matter
what the price range,” noted
Nooner.
Distinctive Home Builders
works to achieve a delivery goal
of 90 days with zero punch list
items for its homeowners. “Our
three decades building homes
provides an efficient construction
system,” said Nooner. “Many of
our skilled craftsmen have been
working with our company
for over 20 years. We also
take pride on having excellent
communicators throughout our
organization. This translates into
a positive buying and building
experience for our homeowners
and one of the highest referral
rates in the industry.”
Nooner added that all homes
are highly energy efficient. Every
home built will have upgraded
wall and ceiling insulation
values with energy efficient
windows and high efficiency
furnaces. Before homeowners
move into their new home,
Distinctive Home Builders
conducts a blower door test that
pressurizes the home to ensure
that each home passes a set of
very stringent Energy Efficiency
guidelines.
With the addition of these two
new designs, there are now 15
ranch, split-level and six twostory
single-family home styles to
choose from each offering from
three to eight different exterior
elevations at both communities.
The three- to four-bedroom
homes feature one and one-half
to two-and-one-half baths, twoto
three-car garages and a family
room, all in approximately 1,600
to over 3,000 square feet of living
space. Basements are included in
most models as well. Distinctive
also encourages customization
to make your new home truly
personalized to suit your lifestyle.
Oversize home sites; brick
exteriors on all four sides of the
first floor; custom maple cabinets;
ceramic tile or hardwood
floors in the kitchen, baths and
foyer; genuine wood trim and
doors and concrete driveways
can all be yours at Prairie
Trails and WestGate Manor.
Most all home sites at Prairie
Trails and WestGate Manor
can accommodate a three-car
garage; a very important amenity
to the Manhattan homebuyer,
said Nooner.
“When we opened Prairie
Trails and WestGate Manor we
wanted to provide the best new
home value for the dollar and
we feel with offering Premium
Standard Features that we do
just that. So why wait? This is
truly the best time to build your
dream home!”
Prairie Trails is also a beautiful
place to live and raise a family
featuring a 20-acre lake on site,
as well as direct access to the 22-
mile Wauponsee Glacial Prairie
Path that borders the community
and meanders through many
neighboring communities and
links to many other popular
trails. The Manhattan Metra
station is less than a mile away.
Besides Prairie Trails,
Distinctive Home Builders
has built homes throughout
Manhattan in the Butternut
Ridge and Leighlinbridge
developments, as well as in the
Will and south Cook county
areas over the past 30 years.
Distinctive Home Builders
chose the Will County village
of Peotone for its newest
community of 38 single-family
homes at WestGate Manor
within walking distance of the
esteemed Peotone High School.
Its convenient location between
Interstate 57 and Illinois Route
50 provide easy access to I-80
and commuters enjoy several
nearby train stations and a
35-minute drive to Chicago.

Athlete of the Week
10 Questions
with Molly Skoda
Molly Skoda is a senior outside
hitter ohe Griffins girls
volleyball team
How long have you
been playing volleyball,
and how did you get
started with the sport?
I've been playing for about
six years, and I got started
because my sister played and
she convinced me how fun it
was and got me to start playing
club, and I loved it.
What do you most enjoy
about volleyball?
I love the competitiveness
of it ... you have to have
smart plays and teamwork
involved in it, because it's
not an individual sport. You
all work together.
What are some of your
biggest strengths as an
athlete?
I'd say that I am a good
leader and I help bring the
team together when we're
down.
What are you most
looking forward to this
season?
I'm looking forward to
work together to hopefully
try to win regionals again.
What does this year's
team do really well?
We're really good at sticking
together.
Do you have an athletic
accomplishment you're
really proud of?
I'm proud of winning
MVP three years in a row.
Do you have any
traditions before a big
game?
I usually listen to music
and get pumped up with the
team, and we just dance it all
out.
Who is your role model?
I look up to my sister [Sophie
Skoda]. I turn to her for
everything. She gives me a
ton of advice.
What advice would
Photo submitted
you give to someone
starting out with
volleyball?
I'd say to just stay focused
on not letting all the stress
get to you and stay focused
on keeping it a happy experience
and fun.
If you could travel
anywhere in the world,
where would you go
and why?
I really want to go to Africa,
because I've always been
fascinated with the culture
and the animals there.

net.
“Cory played excellent
tonight. He’s a handful,”
Decker noted. “Vic did a
nice job cleaning up the box.
The other guy that played
well was Ryan Corydon.
He’s our left winger and the
kid is just an endless motor.”
The Griffins needed that
motor to help stave off
a much more aggressive
Knights team in the second
half.
“I thought we played well
enough to create a bunch of
chances,” said Central coach
Sean Fahey. “We were on
the doorstep here and there
and we were just missing
that final touch. Unfortunately,
that was the game. I
think the second half kind
of spoke for what the first
half could’ve, would’ve,
should’ve gone.”
The Knights applied the
pressure during the final 40
minutes. Early on, Porada
made a nice save that was
followed by narrow miss on
a header in front of the net.
Central’s best chance, however,
came when Connor
Erickson’s blistering shot
hit the post with 18:20 left
in the game.
“Connor was all over the
field,” Fahey said of his senior
forward. “He played a
great game.”
Porada lauded his teammates.
“The defense in front of
me played really well tonight.
They didn’t let up
anything bad. All the shots
were manageable,” he said.
“It was a good win.”
The Griffins were forced
to play without leading
scorer Jackson Seida, who
had to sit out the contest for
a red card violation in East’s
previous game.
“Hats off to East. They’re
obviously a good team;
they’ve been rolling this
year,” Fahey said. “They’ve
got speed, they’ve got
size and they capitalize on
chances. That was the difference
in the game.”
“I think the team is starting
to come together in the
way of what we want to
and what the character of
the group and the intentions
of the group are,” Decker
said. “We set goals. It was
to win conference, to win a
regional and see how far we
can go.
“We’ve been waiting for
this group. Some of these
boys have been coming to
my camp since they were
9 and 10 years old. So we
knew this group was coming.
We knew that these two
years of juniors and seniors
together was going to be
a good one. The depth is
there; the speed is there. It’s
a really good multi-faceted
group. We have a lot of the
pieces to the puzzle.”
Pitlik added: “We have a
tough schedule but we can
take care of it. This is the
best team I’ve been on all
three years I’ve been here.”

final minute of the first half.
Baltz (8-of-11, 165 yards,
2 TDs, 2 INTs) said he felt
the Griffins were successful
through the air on those big
plays because of how they
established the run early in
the game.
“We were able to really
work on our stretches, and
the inside run was working,
so we had everybody biting
on it — so the deep vertical
game was definitely open,”
Baltz said.
The Griffins’ running game
continued to shred opponents
in Week 5, with junior Devon
Williams leading the way.
He had eight carries for 152
yards and two touchdowns
— one coming on a 74-yard
run on the first offensive snap
of the second half.
East senior Jordan Corbett
also had a big night, running
for 106 yards on 10 carries
and a touchdown.
And while he didn’t find
the end zone on a run play,
Henning still gained 77
yards on just five carries —
highlighting just how many
options the Griffins’ offense
has now that it is back at
full-strength.
“Tonight, I think we
showed flashes of how could
we can be,” Henning said.
“I think now it’s just to keep
building off of what we did
tonight, and keep getting
better week to week.”
The East offense also got
a 39-yard field goal from
Dominic Dzioban.
Not to be overlooked,
however, is the performance
of the East defense — which
has now shut out three
straight opponents in Andrew,
Sandburg and Central.
Kenny Palmer intercepted
a pass from Central quarterback
Bryce Hayes early
in the game, and East got
four sacks — one each from
Mick Stewart and Jacob
Kramer, and two from Sean
McLaughlin.
“We’ve been practicing
hard all summer and all
weeklong, and we just try to
go out there and dominate
on every play,” McLaughlin
said. “It just happened to fire
on all cylinders tonight.”
East coach Rob Zvonar
said the defense continued
to impress in Week 5. Count
him among those impressed.
“This group has taken just
a little bit to hit their stride,
but we’re starting to see
some of that leadership and
their football IQ [improving],”
he said.
Zvonar credited the scout
team for prepping the defense
on what Central would
run on offense.
“That’s a difficult offense
to simulate,” he said. “They
have a lot of unique formations.”
With the win, East improved
to 5-0 overall and 3-0
in conference. Next up for
the Griffins is Homewood-
Flossmoor (5-0) for a Week
6 matchup at home in Frankfort.
Central dropped to (3-2)
overall and 3-1 in conference.
Central hosts Stagg (2-
3) in Week 6.

LWE routs LW Central as A.J. Henning returns to the field
Jon DePaolis
Freelance Reporter
It was just one play, but
it may be a sign of things to
come.
If nothing else, it showed
the potential of an offense finally
at full strength midway
through the regular season.
The Lincoln-Way East
football team already was
up 10-0 over Lincoln-Way
Central 12 seconds into the
second quarter Friday, Sept.
21, in Frankfort. On the first
play of a new offensive series
at the East 46-yard line,
senior quarterback Jack
Baltz took the snap and appeared
to hand the ball off to
his running back.
But it was all a ruse — one
that even those in the stands
bit on.
Streaking down the field
was East junior A.J. Henning
— the star wide receiver/
running back who dominated
teams last season with his
speed, but who had missed
the first four weeks of the
season this year because of
left hip flexor injury.
Baltz, who hadn't handed
the ball off, settled his feet
and hurled a bomb to hit a
wide open Henning 25-plus
yards away. Henning caught
the pass and sprinted to
the end zone for a 54-yard
touchdown — opening the
flood gates for a 38-0 rout
for East over Central in
Week 5.
“Baltz … he sort of faked
it behind, and I came off the
line pretty slow, and then cut
it into a post,” Henning said
of the play. “He just threw it
up and made a nice throw.”
Was Henning surprised to
be all alone out in the middle
of the field? Not after everyone
bit on the fake.
“Everyone!” he said. “I
saw the corner come up
immediately, and I knew it
was a touchdown, because I
knew Baltz would air it out.”
Then, it was just a matter
of making sure he caught the
ball.
“All you’re thinking is,
‘Don’t drop it,’” he said,
laughing.
East offensive coordinator
and assistant head coach Joel
Pallissard said the play originated
during the Cory Paus
years — back when Lincoln-
Way was one school.
“We ran it a little bit different
than we ran it back
then, because we were in
the double wing back then,”
Pallissard said.
He said this new version
of the play was discussed
by the coaches the Sunday
prior to the game. They felt
it might work, given their
personnel.
“We were pretty heavy on
the run [plays] in that formation,”
Pallissard said. “With
A.J., he draws a lot of attention.
It might not work,
because he draws that much
attention. But the way our
fake went, and the guys really
sold it well, and Jack and
[running back] Devon [Williams]
were unbelievable
in the back. Our tight ends
blocked really well, and our
guys really sold it.”
Pallissard also credited
East wide receiver Chase
Anderson, who carried on
with his route on the other
Lincoln-Way East's A.J. Henning (3) sprints across the
field during his first game of the season Friday, Sept. 21,

of Central’s safeties honest

yard touchdown play in the

Central 2-0 in rivalry
redux
Tim Yonke, Freelance reporter
The latest chapter in a
long-standing boys soccer
rivalry between Lincoln-
Way East and Lincoln-Way
Central was a lot like the
previous games: a shutout.
On Sept. 18 the Griffins
hung a 2-0 loss on Central
thanks to the play of forward
Cory Pitlik and goalie Victor
Porada.
Last year the Knights
were 2-0 winners while in
2016 East triumphed 1-0.
The win put East at 8-3
overall, 2-0 in conference
and 3-0 at home; Central
dropped to 5-4 overall and
0-1 in conference.
There is plenty of trash talking to be done because
our picks were garbage in Week 5. There is a
shakeup at No. 1 as Joe raced passed Heather, whose
rare bad week brought her into the Vorva/Czaja/
Sanchez abyss.

Way East (5-0)

“We wanted to do two
things tonight. We wanted
to make sure the set pieces
were clean and good — we
scored off of a throw-in.
And, to get stingy in the
back and keep a zero. We
accomplished both goals,”
East coach Ryan Decker
said.
Pitlik was instrumental in
the Griffins scoring twice
in the opening half. At the
23:57 mark, the junior made
a long toss-in from the corner.
After a couple of deflections,
junior Dante Wright
was able to head it past Central
goalie Adam Kedzior.
Then, with 3:23 left in
the first half, Pitlik was out
ahead after taking a beautiful
pass from teammate
Andy Cahue and rifling it
