Lake County Children’s Advocacy Center gears up for annual Blue Kids Campaign
April is Child Abuse Prevention Month, and few people see the faces of child abuse in the way that workers at the Lake County Children’s Advocacy Center do, week after week, month after month, year after year. The not-for-profit Children’s Advocacy Center provides a safe, warm setting, complete with masterful comfort dog Mitch. A place where children can be interviewed by victim advocates and often reveal the sad, scary and uncomfortable facts of criminal child abuse and acts of assault, whether physical or sexual. As an arm of the Lake County States Attorney’s Office, the center provides crucial information to investigators on cases in which charges may be brought to court. But it has other goals as well – healing, prevention and awareness. Children’s Advocacy Center officials have built a network of community partners, from police and private businesses to other agencies and individuals, to help make what they do possible, and to work toward the day when the demand for their interview rooms lessens. Advocacy Center Executive Director Carrie Flanigan said the community partnerships are crucial to building
the type of awareness that leads to action, whether it’s legislative protections, volunteering and education, or increasing the number of residents who can recognize the signs of child abuse and are willing to report it. The program also seeks to engage youth, promoting more peer dialogue on the issue, she said. “By spreading awareness and encouraging dialogue, we can prevent abuse from happening in the first place and help keep our children safe, Flanigan said. “Together with our community partners, we are working to show a unified front in our mission to end child abuse.” Flanigan said the center sees about 1,000 child victims each year, providing not only a place for forensic interviews, but also offering counseling and direct support to child victims and their families in a child-friendly atmosphere, including support groups for parents, art groups for children and preventative training programs run in conjunction with its Young Ambassador Board. Staffing, including assistant state’s attorneys, is provided by the State’s Attorney’s Office through Lake County’s budget, but donations and the hard work
“
By spreading awareness and encouraging dialogue, we can prevent abuse from happening in the first place and help keep our children safe.” – Executive Director Carrie Flanigan
of the Friends of the Lake County Children’s Advocacy Center group, other donors and grants help provide many of its amenities. From individuals to organizations as large as the Chicago Bears, the agency has received funding for expansions and an $80,000 healing garden which was dedicated in 2016 as a place for clients and their families to reflect and find solace. Participate in “Dress in Blue Day” on April 14 to show support to end child abuse and neglect. You can also follow The Children’s Advocacy Center in Instagram @childadctrlakeco and Facebook and share their daily posts throughout April.

State releases guide to school reopening
Lake County Forest Preserves offers annual native plant sale online
Districts to receive over $7 billion in federal funds to help in effort By Peter Hancock Educators, students and families will face a host of new challenges in overcoming the learning loss that occurred over the past year of mostly remote learning as COVID-19 vaccines become more widely available and schools prepare to fully reopen for in-person learning. To aid in that process, Gov. JB Pritzker announced the release of a new 180-page Learning Renewal Resource Guide to help school officials identify and address the most significant challenges they face. Pritzker said Illinois school districts can expect to receive roughly $7 billion in federal funds to help them transition back to in-person learning, mainly through the recently passed American Rescue Plan. About 90 percent of that money will come in the form of direct payments. In addition, higher education institutions in Illinois will receive about $1.3 billion from the third round of federal relief that was approved in December, for a total of $2.5 billion across all three rounds of federal funding, mainly from the Higher Education Emergency Relief Fund. “With these enormous new resources comes the great challenge that most districts have never had to face—how to avoid having the last 12 months become the lost year for our students,” Pritzker said at a news conference at South Elgin High School in the western Chicago suburbs, the state’s second-largest school dis-
trict. “To revitalize learning for teachers and students and educators, our response must be intensive, holistic and practical.” The resource guide is the work of the Illinois P-20 Council, an agency established in 2009 to study and make recommendations for all levels of education, from preschool through post-college education. The guide was developed in collaboration with the Illinois State Board of Education, the Illinois Board of Higher Education, the Illinois Community College Board, the Illinois Student Assistance Commission and the Governor’s Office of Early Childhood Development, with support from A Better Chicago and Advance Illinois. Just as the pandemic exacerbated inequities that already existed within the nation’s health care system, State Superintendent of Education Carmen Ayala said it also had a disproportionate impact on low-income students, who often have limited or no access to home computers or broadband internet service, as well as students of color. But she also said that as schools reopen post-pandemic, they will have a new set of resources to help address those underlying inequities. “With the influx of federal funding and the learning renewal resource guide, we are now presented with a unique opportunity to transform systems of learning for students, to reshape our new normal, so that our students return to an

Public invited to virtual hearings on adult-use cannabis businesses in unincorporated Lake County
The Lake County Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) invites the public to provide input as it considers proposed zoning amendments that would permit adult-use cannabis businesses in unincorporated Lake County subject to certain restrictions. All interested residents are invited to attend one or both virtual public hearings on the issue scheduled for Monday, April 19 at 5:30 p.m. and Wednesday, April 21 at 1 p.m. Should additional time be needed for consideration of the topic, the continuation date and time
will be announced at the conclusion of the April 21 hearing. Residents are also encouraged to visit Lake County’s new adult-use cannabis web page, https://www. lakecountyil.gov/4526/ Adult-Use-Cannabis-Businesses, to learn more about the issue, including proposed zoning amendments and maps. The page also provides a way for the public to submit input, questions and concerns directly to the County’s project team. The Lake County Board adopted a resolution on Feb. 9 to initiate the ZBA public hearing process. While adultuse of cannabis has been legal in Illinois since Jan. 1, 2020, business establishments are currently prohibited to operate in unincorporated Lake County. Under Illinois law, Lake County government has the option to establish regulations to allow or ban adult-use cannabis businesses in the unincorporated areas.
The public hearings will be conducted by video/audio conference on Zoom, beginning with a presentation followed by public comment and ZBA member discussion. Registration is required. The virtual public hearing will be accessible to individuals with disabilities or lack of internet access. Anyone needing special assistance and planning to attend should contact the Lake County Planning, Building and Development department at 847377-2600 or via email at lakecountycannabiszoining@ lakecountyil.gov by April 14.

The McHenry County Department of Health (MCDH) is announced that a second COVID-19 vaccination clinic opened in Crystal Lake on Wednesday, April 7. The newest site, located at the Willow Creek Community Church, 100 S. Main Street in Crystal Lake, will provide the COVID-19 vaccine to McHenry County residents or those who work at a McHenry County business. All MCDH clinics are by appointment only and are open to those who are eligible to receive their vaccine. Photo identification is required and those who are a resident of another county but work in McHenry County must show proof of their employment. To receive a vaccination at an MCDH-run clinic, please look for open appointments by completing the questionnaire and search for open times on the COVID-19 Vaccine Registration form. Those without internet or who need assistance with booking an appointment can call MCDH’s COVID-19 Call Center at (815) 334-4045 or the Illinois Department of Public Health’s vaccine scheduling hotline at 1-833-621-1284. “We are continuously looking at opportunities to expand the number of vaccination sites to meet the high demand for vaccine in McHenry County,” said MCHD Administrator Melissa Adamson. “As more vaccine begins to flow into the county, additional locations will open including drive-thru sites.” There are several options for residents to receive vaccine. Some regional hospital systems, clinics and other community partners are administering vaccine and may reach out directly to their patients to schedule an appointment. There are also state and federal partnerships with retail pharmacies in McHenry County. Anyone may enroll at those sites to be vaccinated. To find a location vaccinating near you, please visit the
State of Illinois’ Vaccination Locations webpage at https:// coronavirus.illinois.gov/s/ vaccination-location.
The Lake County Forest Preserves is holding its popular Native Plant Sale online this season and encouraging homeowners to order plants in their sweatpants from the convenience of home. “For the past 16 years, the Lake County Forest Preserves and Possibility Place Nursery have partnered to host one of the most-visited native plant sales in the area,” said Director of Education Nan Buckardt. “Due to social distancing guidelines, we are hosting an online sale again this year. Your plant purchases will be shipped right to your doorstep. You don’t even have to leaf home to purchase native plants.” Sales of native perennials, trees and shrubs are open now all the way through December 31. To get started, and see full details, visit Possibility Place’s online portal. A variety of sun-loving, rain garden, and beneficial wildlife host plant species are available for purchase online. “Native plants naturally thrive in Lake County’s soil and weather, requiring less time, effort and expense to maintain,” said Angelo Kyle, president of the Lake County Forest Preserves. “They also play a critical role in increasing biodiversity––the variety of species living in a particular habitat.” These indigenous plants help local diversity by providing food and homes to native birds, butterflies and other wildlife. Because of their variety, low maintenance, and environmental benefits, native plants have become increasingly popular among professional landscapers and gardeners in recent years. “As part of our 100-Year Vision and Strategic Plan, we want to engage local residents as conservation partners to enhance the landscape and blur the boundaries between residential and nearby natural areas,” Buckardt said. “Gardens with native plants provide an important bridge. What you do on your own property can make a big difference.” Some key details for easy online shopping: • Minimum purchase of 18 plants, in any pint-size combination, required for safe, efficient delivery • 1-gallon trees and shrubs began shipping April 1 • Perennial plants will ship beginning May 15 • Additional perennial inventory will be available after April 15. If you see a perennial out of stock early on during the sale, please know that more inventory is on the way. • Tree and shrub inventory will increase in June • Species available while supplies last “As in previous years, a portion of each sale supports our educational programming,” said Buckardt. If 18 plants are more than you need to accomplish your garden goals, Buckardt suggests asking a neighbor, friend, or family member to split the box. If customers are looking for a plant that is not on the list, other species may be available at the nursery for order by phone at 708-534-3988, or through the contact form. To place an order or learn more, visit: LCFPD.org/PlantSale. Not sure where to start with native landscaping? Visit our resources hub at LCFPD.org/buckthorn.

education system that is more equitable, more individualized and more responsive to their needs,” she said. Melissa Figueira, senior policy associate with Advance Illinois, said it has also had a dramatic impact on enrollment at all levels of education—an estimated 1.9 percent drop in pre-K through 12 schools, with the biggest declines in kindergarten through third grade, and a 5 percent decline in post-secondary enrollment. The resource guide details 12 topics that districts and higher education institutions may want to consider to equitably address the pandemic’s short-term and long-term impacts. Among them are ways to support enrollment and retention, redesigning the school calendar by expanding school days and the school year, ways to provide out of classroom learning experiences through tutoring, before and after school programs and summer camps, and enhancing the availability of both academic and behavioral counseling. In addition to the resource guide, the governor’s office said in a statement that state education agencies will focus on four major goals to support schools: high-impact tutoring; social and emotional learning community partnerships; interim assessments to measure the impact the pandemic has had on student learning; and to encourage enrollment in both early childhood programs and higher education.

Prince of Peace third grade teacher receives recognition
Prince of Peace Catholic School, a nationally recognized Blue Ribbon school, is pleased to announce that Third Grade Teacher and Assistant Principal Mary Rooney has been chosen as a #SchoolHero by the Archdiocese of Chicago. Ms. Rooney has been at Prince of Peace for more than 45 years and is considered indispensable by students and staff alike. She is a strong advocate for children and believes in encouraging students to increase their confidence, both inside and outside the classroom. Adored by her students, her earliest students have even brought their own children back to be taught by Ms. Rooney. She is a 2000 Golden Apple recipient and a 2010 Distinguished Service Award recipient. Colleagues listen to her wisdom and insights, and her smile, ready laugh and infallible energy make everyone’s day brighter. “Ms. Rooney helped me through both academic and social challenges while I was a student at Prince of Peace, and she’s one of the reasons I became a teacher. I am lucky to have kept in touch with Ms. Rooney over the years and, although it has been almost 20 years since I sat in her classroom, she has impacted my life forever,” wrote a former student.

Principal Dr. Stephanie Stoneberg added, “Mary is a living example of ‘love the children first, then teach them,’ and this is evident in the way she not only teaches but lives her life. She encourages joyful learners and is a mentor and friend to faculty, staff, students and families. She just knows what each student needs to succeed and ensures that they receive that and more. We truly are blessed to have her as part of our community.” The Archdiocese of Chicago introduced the #SchoolHero program at the beginning of the academic year to recognize school employees who have worked tirelessly during the pandemic to continue bringing quality education, safety and care to in-person and remote learning students and families.

Reviving an abandoned air base
Bong Recreation Area once considered for military use By Jason Arndt STAFF WRITER
ichard Bong State Recreation Area features a variety of attractions for people, regardless of who they are, according to the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources. The 4,515-acre multi-use recreation area, which sits in the Town of Brighton in Kenosha County, Wis., boasts 217 campsites, a nature center, lookout tower, birding, hunting, canoeing, fishing, hiking, among a series of other recreational opportunities. Other opportunities, the DNR states, consist of eight trails ranging from 0.7 to 8.3 miles with different terrains as well as scenery. “Hikers have more than 16 miles of trails to explore, through a variety of habitat,” the DNR states on its website. Bong Recreation Area, 26313 Burlington Road, Kansasville, also features areas for fishing on Wolf Lake as well as opportunities to swim on a 200-foot beach on the sprawling land near highways 75 and 142. The sprawling land consisting of thousands of acres, according to Burlington Historical Society records, became a designated recreational area during an Oct. 9, 1966 dedication ceremony. While thousands of people have likely visited since then, participating in multiple activities, the story of Richard Bong State Recreation Area began much earlier as an Air Force base abandoned by the federal government. And what about the recreation area’s namesake, Richard Ira Bong, who grew up in northern Wisconsin? Air Force ace Richard Bong, also known as “Dick,”
Richard Bong State Recreation Area, 26313 Burlington Road, Kansasville was named in honor of a World War II veteran and initially planned as an Air Force base. SUBMITTED PHOTO Hi-Liter

earned induction into the National Aviation Hall of Fame in 1986 after a short – but well-decorated – career as a World War II Air Force fighter pilot. Maj. Bong, born in 1920, spent his childhood growing up on his family farm near Poplar, Wisconsin, about 20 miles southeast of Superior, the Aviation Hall of Fame states. Bong finished among the top in high school class while participating in 4-H, angling waterways, and hunting and even played the cabinet. Bong, however, found his first exposure to aviation in 1928 when then-President Calvin Coolidge vacationed and established a summer White House near Superior. “(Coolidge) received his mail every day by airplane. Dick was fascinated,” the Aviation Hall of Fame states. “Later he recalled that the mailplane ‘flew right over our house and I knew I wanted to be a pilot.’” About a decade later, in 1938, Bong still maintained his career mission of becoming a pilot while attending Superior State Teachers’ College. Shortly after, Bong enlisted in U.S. Army Air Corps, around the time the United States entered World War II. “Dick became America’s all-time Ace of Aces, downing 40 enemy planes in the Pacific theater of the war while flying P-38 fighter planes,” the Richard I. Bong Veterans Historical Center states. “His many decorations for outstanding skills and extraordinary courage included the Congressional Medal of Honor.” Bong, however, saw his life cut short at 24 years old after being killed test piloting the first Lockheed jet fighter plane in 1945. Bong, who returned to the United States to marry his wife, Marjorie, experienced the fatal crash in Southern California. The Burlington Standard Press, which published a 1969 retrospective of Bong’s story, reported the accomplished pilot woke up with a plan, including a movie with his wife. “I’m taking up one of the new planes today,” he told his wife. However, in the afternoon, a “Shooting Star roared down a Lockheed runway. Four minutes, one of its jet engines exploded, the plane crashed, and Dick died.” Bong died with 500 air combat hours and holder of 26 decorations, according to the Standard Press, which reported he was buried with full military honors. State officials began honoring Bong with memorials such as renaming the Superior

Court news
Woman charged after biting, injuring sheriff’s deputy A Lake County Sheriff’s Deputy was injured when a woman bit him while he was attempting to provide her with paperwork from an earlier incident. On April 2, 2021, at approximately 9:00 p.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to a domestic dispute in progress in the 24800 block of West Oak Avenue, Unincorporated Lake Villa. One of the individuals involved, Kayla C. Wood, 24, of the same address was initially taken into custody by sheriff’s deputies for domestic battery and resisting arrest. After reviewing the facts and circumstances with the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office, they declined the domestic battery charge at that time. Wood was subsequently transported via ambulance to an area hospital due to some concerning statements she made.
A sheriff’s deputy arrived at the hospital shortly after Wood to provide her with citations for resisting arrest. When the sheriff’s deputy entered Wood’s hospital room, she charged the deputy. The sheriff’s deputy was able to stop Wood and held her back. Wood however was able to slap the sheriff’s deputy across the face. The sheriff’s deputy started placing Wood into handcuffs and she bit the deputy on the arm, causing the skin to break on the deputy’s arm. Wood was then successfully placed into handcuffs. The sheriff’s deputy was treated at a local hospital and released. The new information was reviewed with the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office and they approved the charge of aggravated battery to a peace officer (class 2 felony) for Wood.
On April 3, 2021, Wood was released from the hospital and transported to the Lake County Jail. Wood remains held on the charges of aggravated battery to a peace officer and three counts of resisting arrest, pending an initial court hearing.
Two men arrested following several motor vehicle burglaries
On March 30, 2021, around 3:00 a.m., Antioch Police Officers responded to the Neuhaven neighborhood for the report of a suspicious person. A resident reported being woken up by an alert from their motion activated camera, which showed a subject attempting to enter their vehicle. Despite a search of the area being conducted, with the assistance of a K9 Unit
from the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, the subject was unable to be located. Around 6:30 a.m., an Antioch Police Officer was patrolling the Neuhaven neighborhood when they encountered two subjects walking near Walker Drive and Deercrest Drive. One of these subjects matched the description of the subject involved in the earlier incident, and neither had a plausible explanation for being in the area. The subjects were later identified as Regis R. Flood-Span, 25, of the 4300 block of 75th Street Kenosha, WI, and Martell L. Miller, 31, of the 5500 block of 31st Street Kenosha, WI. Through investigative efforts, Antioch Police learned that Flood-Span and Miller were responsible for several car burglaries that occurred during the overnight hours, throughout the Neuhaven and Redwing View neighbor-
hoods. In addition to Miller having an arrest warrant for theft, the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office approved three charges of Class 3 Felony Burglary to Motor Vehicle for both Miller and Flood-Span. Both appeared in Lake County Bond Court this morning, where a Judge remanded them to the Lake County Jail on a $20,000 bond. They are both due back in court on April 8. Antioch Police Chief Geoffrey Guttschow said, “This is a great example of the positive outcomes that can be achieved when great police work, and alert and engaged residents come together to prevent crime in our community. I would like to remind everyone that statistically, most burglaries to vehicles involve unlocked cars. These crimes can be prevented through the simple acts of removing things such as valuables and your garage door openers and making sure your vehicles are locked. Allowing a criminal easy access to your remote garage door opener is no different than handing them a key to your front door. Please, take the simple steps mentioned above, to help keep yourself from becoming a victim of this type of crime.” The Antioch Police Department would like to encourage community members to immediately report any suspicious activity by calling 911. The Antioch Police Department thanks the Lake County Sheriff’s Office for their assistance.

municipal airport in his name. The Burlington Standard Press, however, asked one compelling question. “In what way did the nation posthumously honor its ‘ace of aces?” Rumors, opposition The Defense Department, looking for a prospective Air Force base, reportedly began surveying land around Kansasville in 1955 and resulted in several months of rumors. Federal officials, at least according to a 1961 report from the Saturday Evening Post, found the area as an ideal location because its near Milwaukee and Chicago. “…it was hard to argue with a military decision that here was the best place to locate planes which might someday rise to save Chicago and Milwaukee from destruction,” the Post stated. U.S. Sen. Alexander, of Wisconsin, vaguely declared in an address a new airfield would be built “near Racine” and wanted to “try to have it named for Richard Bong.” The U.S. House of Representatives eventually adopted an amendment, which came from Rep. Lawrence, of the First Congressional District, to a military bill designating the ‘proposed Kansasville airfield as the Richard L. Bong Air Base.” For the next five years, including final authorization from President Dwight Eisenhower, the planned Air Force base drew opposition from landowners and municipalities.
The Brighton Town Board and the City of Burlington both expressed concern, noting problems like land acquisitions from farmers, environmental issues, loss of an area cemetery and forcing residents from their homes. Additionally, the planned air base brought concerns from residents in neighboring communities, like the Town of Dover. The Post recalled a meeting at the Dover Town Hall, where 800 farmers filled the building, and presented pressing questions to Brig. Gen. William H. Wise from the U.S. Air Force.
unfinished runway viewable through aerial photography. After the government abandoned the project, there were many options considered for the location, including serving as a four-year University of Wisconsin campus. The University of Wisconsin, however, decided on a location near Petrifying Springs in the town of Somers in Kenosha County and became known as UW-Parkside.

Local citizens had the Today, there are still remnants of the foresight to protect this open space for incomplete base, with a footprint of an future generations.”
On March 29, 2021, at approximately 8:00 a.m., Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies responded to a residence in the 37100 block of Piper Lane, Unincorporated Lake Villa, during a stolen vehicle investigation. Sheriff’s deputies located a vehicle that had been stolen from the 37900 block of North Watts Avenue, Unincorporated Spring Grove, earlier the same day. Sheriff’s deputies attempted to make contact with the residents inside the Piper Lane home, but nobody came to the door. Sheriff’s deputies remained on the scene and were seeking a search warrant for the residence, as it was believed additional stolen property was inside the home. At approximately 5 p.m., a subject exited
the home. He advised he lived at the home and told sheriff’s deputies there were five additional people inside the residence, and they possessed numerous firearms. Two additional individuals then came out of the house and reported the same information as the first person. One of the individuals who remained inside, Wayne M. Mikulski, 41, of the same address, is a parolee through the Illinois Department of Corrections. After learning the information about the home’s occupants being armed, sheriff’s deputies established a perimeter around the home. Additional units responded to the scene. Sheriff’s detectives contacted the Illinois Department of Corrections to inquire about Mikulski’s status and were informed the Illinois Department of Corrections was issuing a parole violation warrant. Members of the sheriff’s office patrol division, special investigations division, criminal investigations division, and tactical response team entered the home. They took Mikulski into custody as well as Elliot Ventura, 31, of the same address. Sheriff’s detectives recovered stolen property which was previously stolen in area thefts and burglaries. Following the investigation sheriff’s detectives reviewed the facts and circumstances with the Lake County State’s Attorney’s Office and they approved the following charges for the two men: Mikulski: (in addition to his parole violation warrant): Five Counts of Unlawful Use/ Possession of a Weapon by a Felon (Class 2 Felonies), and Unlawful Possession of Stolen Registration (Class 2 Felony). Ventura: Unlawful Possession of a Stolen Vehicle (Class 2 Felony), Unlawful Possession of Stolen Property (Class 2 Felony), and Theft (Class 2 Felony). Mikulski and Ventura appeared in court on March 20 and Mikulski remained held without bail, due to his parole violation warrant and his next court date is pending. Ventura’s bail was set at $20,000 and he is next due in court on April 20, 2021. Sheriff’s detectives continue to investigate, and additional charges are possible. The Lake County Sheriff’s Office thanks the Antioch Police Department for their assistance. All defendants are presumed innocent unless proven guilty in court.
Sheriff’s Office recognizes April as Distracted Driving Awareness Month
April is Distracted Driving Awareness Month and the Lake County Sheriff’s Office is urging drivers to drop their phone and focus on the road. “Operating a vehicle on the roadway is a serious responsibility which can have deadly consequences if you are driving distracted,” said Sheriff John D. Idleburg. “It is not the time to send a text, check social media, or utilize electronics when operating a vehicle.” The Lake County Sheriff’s Office is partnering with the Illinois Department of Transportation, Illinois
State Police, and more than 200 local law enforcement agencies around Illinois the entire month of April for a distracted driving safety campaign. Sheriff’s deputies will have zero tolerance for distracted driving violations. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, a total of 26,004 people died in U.S. crashes involving a distracted driver between 2012 and 2019. The distracted driving campaign is administered by the Illinois Department of Transportation with federal traffic safety funds.
