SERVING THE PEOPLE OF HUNTLEY SINCE 1960 m^t Mnntltp fuxm^iht HUNTLEY, ILLINOIS THURSDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1994 - VOLUME 34, NUMBER 30 USPS 580-360 Frieda, Jennifer, Lance, Sue and Monica Lamb attended the Boy Scout Log Cabin ceremony dedicated in memory of their late husband, father and grandfather, Charles Lamb, last Sunday at Deicke Park. Boy Scout Cabin Dedicated Last Sunday By Margie Hughes On Sunday, October 23, 1994, the Boy Scout Log Cabin (that had been built in Donahue Woods before any roads led into the woods, around 1928), was dedicated after its renovation, to lifetime Lion, the late Charles "Chuck" Lamb. A very impressive program was presented. Arthur "Hoppy" Kahl, Jr., engineer and manager of reconstruction of the Boy Scout Cabin, was emcee for the program. It was through the organized efforts of Hoppy, the park district the Lions Club, the Boy Scouts, American Legion and community volunteers that the log cabin looks so wonderful and is so safe to walk into, today and for generations to come. The Boy Scouts Troop 167 marched in, after accepting their 1st place pioneering merit awards, to lead in the pledge of allegiance. Rev. Ronald Woodruff gave a brief invocation. Hoppy then informed anyone that would like a demonstration of what was involved in the renovation process to ask after the program and Shane Jordi, Mark Lilly and he would demonstrate. Dr. William Awe gave an explanation on the new sign that is in the process of being made. The sign tells when and how the original cabin was constructed and how it was returned to the look it has today, with all the team work and sweat involved. A special citation was presented to the park district president Chuck Yerke by Don Perkins, president of the McHenry County Historical Society. continued on page 7 Members of Boy Scout Troop 167 color guard presented the American Flag and led the opening ceremonies at the dedication of the Boy Scout Cabin held Sunday in Huntley's Deicke Park. The Boy Scout Cabin was dedicated to lifetime Lion, the late Charles "Chuck" Lamb. Boy Scout Troop 167 Takes Top Honors Troop 167 of Huntley, sponsored by the First Congregational Church, took 1st place in the annual Sycamore District Fall Camporee held this past weekend at Harms Woods. Over 550 Boy Scouts from Northwest Illinois represent¬ ing 63 different troops participated in the annual event. Each troop had to exhibit their pioneering skills by demonstrating their proficiency in tying various knots and lashings. Troop 167 constructed a drawbridge as their special project. Of the scouts attending the Camporee. only seven boys completed all the require¬ ments to earn their pioneering merit badge. All seven of these young men were members of Troop 167. The following should be con¬ gratulated on a job well done: Erik Hahn, Chris Lane, E.J. Keen, Kurt Montanye, Rich Schepler, Robert Schepler, and Eric Stensing. Troop 167's motto of "Not the Biggest; Just the Best!" was surely evident at this year's Camporee. Village President Speaks Out On LITH Relations p^^^^,^^ ^.^ Last Game Of Season By Jim Dhamer Village President Village Of Huntley Many articles have been appearing in local newspapers regarding the boundary dispute between Huntley and Lake-In- The-Hills. This letter will explain the situation from Huntley's viewpoint. Three subjects must be covered in this letter: the role of the land owner in an annexation, die requirement to be contiguous, and the boundary problem with Lake- In-The-Hills (LITH). Each subject will be discussed, although the last will be the longest. In Illinois the property owner generally has control over annexations. The owner decides into which municipality his/her property will be annexed. The villages cannot go out and just "get" the land. If tiie owner will not voluntarily sign annexation papers, then no municipality can annex them. One narrow legal exception exists to this rule, but it is rarely used. Some of the surrounding fanners, if given the choice, would rather keep fanning and not annex to any municipality. If they were adjacent to HunUey and no other village was near, then our village would not be pursuing them lo annex. However, as neighboring communities expand, Huntiey's local farmers will face a choice. Remember land owners do not have to annex to any community, but some farmers are experiencing pressure. This comes in the form of the current boundary battle Huntley is having with LITH. If LITH gets a farm placed into its sewer area, then die owner will likely be annexed by LITH. During Uie boundary batUe some land owners must make a commitment one way or Uie oUier so Uiat the Illinois Environmental Protection continued on page 6 By Jim Geary The HunUey Redskins varsity foofljall team ti-aveled to Kirkland to play Uieir final game of die year. The weather was perfect Saturday afternoon for a game and HunUey enjoyed it wiUi a 23-14 victory over the HiawaUia Hawks. The first quarter did not look good for HunUey. They could not get the ball out of their own end. Hiawatha started Uiree drives inside Redskin territory but could only score once on Uie stingy HunUey defense. The Redskins offense could not get on ttack because Uie Hawks had all of Uieir defense widiin 5 yards of Uie line of scrimmage. In the second quarter things didn't start out much better when die Hawks started a drive on Uieir own 48 and drove to score. That made the score 14-0. That is when HunUey showed its pride. Curt Pippenger intercepted a HiawaUia pass and Uie Redskins had Uieir best field possession at their own 35 to start Uie drive. WiUi 2:38 left in the half, Pippenger hit Jamie Rosenthal on a 50-yard halfback option pass for a touchdown. The extra point pass from Bill Kline to Brian continued on page 6
