The ten state workshop was sponsored by the Republican National Committee. The regular meeting of the HunUey Park Board was held on Wednesday evening, June 28 in the upper meeting room at the Village Hall. Three owners of hor¬ ses, Phil Randazzo, Wayne Dona¬ hue, and Jack McCampbell and Mrs. Hedy Leonard were present at the meeting. The three men re¬ quested that horseback riding be permitted at the Edwin F. Deicke Park and inquired what they could do to make this possible. The Park Board explained to the group that an insurance prob¬ lem exists in that if a person were injured at the park on horseback, the park district could be' sued. Attorney Cowlin stated that even if the park district were to win a lawsuit, the legal costs would still be somewhere btween $750 and $1000. It was stated that horses are unpredictable and that many times the horse was in con¬ trol of the rider rather than the rider in control of the horse. A committee was set up composed of Randazzo, Donahue and McCamp¬ bell to establish a Bridle Club which would supervise the horse¬ back rMfng at tiie Edwin.F.J>eicke Park in Donahoe's woods and cer¬ tify that the children were cap¬ able of rider control of the horses before they would be permitted at the park. Thia committee also would be charged with the responsibility of planning a bridle path to be pre¬ sented for park board approval, the work on this project to be done by the young people who enjoy horseback riding at the park. It was mentioned at the meet¬ ing that there are more horses to¬ day than ever in the history of our connti'y.

Mr. Wayne Donahue asked the board if the Boy Scouts could use the Boy Scout cabin this summer on certain specified nights of each week, and also asked if the Scouts could continue to store their equip¬ ment in the cabin. The board stated that the Scouts could use the cabin. However, the cabin is to be turned into a pavilion in the future and will be boarded up in a short time until it can be renovated. It was mentioned that several of the low¬ er logs are rotted out. The board stated that the Boy Scouts would have to find another place to store their equipment. However, the cabin is always open to the Scouts. It was stated that several boys, two of thetoi from out of town, have been using the Boy Scout cabin for lodging, in fact setting up a bed with springs. The Park Board authorized At¬ torney Cowlin to draw up an or¬ dinance closing the Edwin P. Deicke Park at 9 p.m. between June 1 and September 1, and at 8 p.m. thereafter, unless for spe¬ cial groups with adequate super¬ vision by permission of the park board. Anyone found guilty of vio¬ lating this ordinance will be sub¬ ject to a fine of not to exceed $200. The park will be open at daybreak (7 a.m.) The park commissioners stated that it was not their intent to re¬ strict the automobiles of picknors who are driving to the picnic area. Picnickers may fee) free to take their cars into the park. They did wish to restrict the use of the park as a race track or hot-rodding area. It was mentioned that the Crystal Manor Park district in Crystal Lake received $19,000 for equipment on a federal grant. The Huntley Park board is looking into the possibility of a federal grant for the local district. The appropriation ordinance for the coming year was read and ap¬ proved by the board. Last year it 'was for $68,000, this year it is $20,000 higher. It was reported that the Huntley American Legion would be using the Edwin F. Deicke Park in three weeks for this annual picnic.

A. boys have indicated their willingness to donate a nice barbe¬ que grill; this will be done next year. The board stated that beer can¬ not be sold at the park. However a person may drink beer in the park; no hard liquor wilt be per¬ mitted. Picnickers are responsible for cleaninc: up the area which they use. The Public Service Co. will fi¬ nance up to $800 of wiring for lights and outlets at the park. The Boy Scout Cabin is presently be¬ ing wired on a temporary basis.
