Mika<br />
The Brown family,<br />
of Glencoe<br />
Mika is an adorable<br />
and large 4-year-old,<br />
one-eyed bunny that<br />
has found serious<br />
love from her family.<br />
She is extremely<br />
smart and loves to<br />
escape from her<br />
enclosure when she<br />
thinks no one is<br />
looking. She is also litterbox trained and very well<br />
behaved. Mika enjoys hopping around her sister’s<br />
room, eating shoes and getting snuggles from her<br />
favorite kids. She also loves to eat romaine lettuce,<br />
baby carrots and the occasional banana. She<br />
always has one ear up, and one ear out to the side<br />
and is full of personality.<br />

Photos of dad bring back special memories<br />

These days, cameras on<br />
phones often have many<br />
of the bells and whistles<br />
traditional cameras have.<br />
Though sales of standard<br />
cameras are down due to<br />
this, many photographers<br />
still prefer standard cameras.<br />
Whichever device you<br />
use, getting quality photos<br />
of family and friends never<br />
gets old.<br />

fourth-graders are completing<br />
a three-week program<br />
to teach the next<br />
steps in bicycle safety,<br />
such as using hand signals,<br />
crossing streets, and learning<br />
rules of the road.<br />
“We’re really appreciative<br />
to be able to work with<br />
public safety and the park<br />
district,” Superintendent<br />
Dr. Catherine Wang said.<br />
“This represents the best<br />
In honor of Father’s<br />
Day, The Anchor is asking<br />
residents to submit a<br />
photo of dad for our annual<br />
Father’s Day Photo<br />
Contest. We know dad has<br />
taken many photos of you<br />
over the years. This is your<br />
chance to return the favor<br />
for the special guy.<br />
Maybe it’s a picture of<br />
you two at graduation or<br />
shooting some late night<br />
hoops in the driveway —<br />
whatever sweet photo you<br />
have to share, The Anchor<br />
wants to see it.<br />
Send us a photo of your<br />
dad, and we’ll publish the<br />
winning entry, plus others,<br />
on Thursday, June 13, just<br />
in time for Father’s Day,<br />
which is Sunday, June 16.<br />
The author of the winning<br />
photo will receive a<br />
prize from a local business<br />
to share with his or her<br />
dad.<br />
The deadline for entries<br />
is noon Thursday, June 6,<br />
giving residents two weeks<br />
to submit a photo. All ages<br />
of the village working together<br />
and promoting bike<br />
safety,” she added.<br />
“It’s a great opportunity<br />
for kids to understand the<br />
safety of riding their bike<br />
around town or to school,”<br />
said Liz Visteen, Glencoe<br />
Park District’s program<br />
manager for special<br />
events. “We’re happy to be<br />
part of it.”<br />
Even the Glencoe Public<br />
Library joined in the<br />
fun, bringing its bike cart<br />
that lets patrons remotely<br />
check out and return<br />
books. See bike cart this<br />
summer at Tales Around<br />
Town, a series of story<br />
times at local parks.<br />
Of course, Glencoe’s<br />
littlest residents aren’t the<br />
only ones encouraged to<br />
brush up on their safety<br />
awareness. As bike season<br />
returns, Esposito reminds<br />
all riders to wear<br />
helmets and be sure that<br />
all bikes are equipped with<br />
a red reflective light in the<br />
back and a white one in<br />
are encouraged to enter the<br />
contest.<br />
Entries must include the<br />
father and photographer’s<br />
first and last name, as well<br />
as a phone number for the<br />
photographer.<br />

front. On bike trails, cyclists<br />
should be mindful<br />
of others by warning when<br />
passing, and dog walkers<br />
should be sure to use<br />
a short leash that won’t<br />
get tangled in a bike. And<br />
while state law allows for<br />
bicyclists to ride on streets<br />
two abreast, Glencoe’s<br />
stricter law says that riders<br />
must be single-file. Also,<br />
bicyclists must stop at all<br />
stop signs and lights, and<br />
abide by all other rules of<br />
the road.<br />
