Volume 40 No. 12 Your hometown newspaper Thursday, March 23,2000 © 2000 Press.-Republican Newspapers Press-Republican photo by Steve Bittinger Future ballerina Six-year-old Emily Van Dolah takes part in the New Ballet class that is offered by the Huntley Park District. Van Dolah is practicing, along with the class, for their dance recital which will be held June 10.There are about 75 people, children through adults, who are involved in the ballet classes offered at the Park District. Village studies creation of regional emergency service dispatch system by Deborah Niemann The Huntley Farmside Huntley is joining a group of neighboring communities to study the possibility of starting a regional dispatching system for emergency services. When each community dis¬ patches its own emergency ser¬ vices, it can be costly and some¬ times inefficient, said Huntley Police Sgt. John Ciombor. If the new system is adopted, it will put several departments on the same emergency fre¬ quency, tvhich will make it easi¬ er for police and fire to call for back-up when necessary, Ciombor said. Along with Huntley, partici¬ pating departments will include Algonquin, Cary, Crystal Lake and Fox River Grove. Although the idea has been discussed for several months,. the Village Board decided last week to move forward with a study to examine the creation of the regional system. Under the current system, police officers and fire fighters have to radio the dispatcher who then has to call other departments for assistance, but under a regional system, assis¬ tance would be only a radio call away. For the past year, Huntley's emergency services have been dispatched from Lake in the Hills, and prior to that, they were dispatched by the McHenry County Sheriff's Department. Ciombor said a regional sys¬ tem would provide better equip¬ ment and better service if every¬ thing is centralized. Huntley is expected to pay about $2,400 of the $58,000 cost of the study. Living Waters Church holds seminars On Saturday, March 26, Living Waters Lutheran Church mem¬ ber and seminarian Margo Peterson will share in a Faith Focus talk about her upcoming mission trip to Romania. Peterson will lead the Adult Forum beginning at 9:30 a.m. and share her hopes for the trip and how you can help to assist Margo's mission efforts, while the Kids Klub will assemble "Goodie Bags" for needy chil¬ dren in Romania. The packets will consist of coloring books, crayons, pencils, life savers, dental hygiene items, and a small toy. Anyone wishing to donate items for the packets should contact the church office at (815) 455-2424. We need a Huntiey/Marengo editor The Huntley Farmside and Marengo Press is looking for a. new city editor. Our hope is to find someone from the area who has roots in the community, as well as a •background in journalism. Our purpose is to provide our read¬ ers with the best possible com¬ mimity newspaper.
