Rauner visits the ‘Taste’Gubernatorial hopeful Bruce Rauner mingles with the crowd Thursday at the Taste of Oak Brook.
Village officials introduced Rauner, who then took the stage, addressed the crowd and walked
around the ground greeting guests. In the past week, Rauner made multiple stops in the western
suburbs, most recently touring SteadFast on Wednesday in Addison, speaking with leaders of the
family-owned business. The annual Taste of Oak Brook was held from 4 to 9 p.m. Thursday and fea-
tured local restaurant booths, musical entertainment, children’s activities and a fireworks display.

D-181 summer learningprogram enrollmentcontinues to grow
By ED [email protected]
BURR RIDGE – More than575 students took part in SchoolDistrict 181’s growing SummerLearning Program that hasseen enrollment numbers morethan double since 2011.
From June 12 to July 3, theprogram provided a series ofclasses primarily at ProspectSchool, for children in kinder-garten through seventh grade.
“It grows every year,” Dis-trict spokesperson BridgetMcGuiggan said. “It’s becomeits own school during the sum-mer, it’s that big.”
The program offers stu-dents a host of academic class-es to catch up or get ahead onschool work as well as fun-based activities. Several sum-mer campers opt for a combi-nation of both.
“Parents have as much flex-ibility as they want,” McGuig-gan said. “It’s totally up to thefamily what kind of mix theywant to do. Whatever they thinkwill be best for their student.”
The district also offered a“6th Grade Boot Camp,” wherethe soon-to-be middle school-ers practiced skills rangingfrom how to follow a classschedule to using a combina-tion lock, McGuiggan said.
“For students who may haveanxiety about (middle school),those classes help to make themfeel more comfortable whenschool starts,” she said.
The enrichment and ad-vanced learning courses
mixed individual and groupwork, she said
Many classes incorporatedtechnology to help students ex-pand their learning opportuni-ties, such as keyboarding anddigital art. Other classes in-cluded music lessons, hands-onmath and science activities, the-ater, art and creative writing.
“Our teachers did a phe-nomenal job planning andleading a series of courses thatwere engaging for students,”Summer School Administra-tor Rocky May said in a newsrelease. “The classes werenot only educational, but alsohelped students look forwardto coming back to school.”
District 181 students returnto school Aug. 25, 2014.
The summer learning pro-gram is available to any stu-dents in the area, not justthose enrolled in District 181,McGuiggan said.

Central student shines in director seatBy ALEX SOULIER
HINSDALE – Ele Hager-moser has never shied awayfrom the spotlight.
The 17-year-old HinsdaleCentral senior has been act-ing since age7 , w h e n s h ewas cast in aZion LutheranChurch produc-tion of “StageCoach.” Sincethen, she’s tak-en center stagei n c o u n t l e s splays and musi-cals and often spends her sum-mers participating in perfor-mance programs throughoutthe country.
“I love the theater com-munity and the people,” Ha-germoser said. “The stage iswhere I met best friends andwhere I made my best mem-ories. The people that I haveworked with are so willing to
be who they are and so uniqueand passionate about whatthey do. It is inspiring to besurrounded by them.”
But Hagermoser currentlyis the one inspiring fellow ac-tors and actresses.
In her three years at Hin-sdale Central, she has beeninvolved in 21 theater produc-tions – doing everything fromacting, to assisting in stage de-sign, props, sound and lightingand, most recently, directingplays.
The 17-year-old is even cred-ited with pioneering studentdirecting at Hinsdale Central.
After she was not cast inthe school’s production of“The Laramie Project” during
her sophomore year, Hager-moser – determined to stillbe involved in the show – ap-proached teacher and directorChristine Hicks about the pos-sibility of being an assistantdirector.
“Straight plays at ourschool never used to have as-sistant directors,” Hagermos-er said. “While I was the firstto do that, it makes me happierthat every play since has usedan assistant director, so otherswho are interested can now tryit out for themselves.
“After that, I had the op-portunity to direct a fresh-man production of ‘BrothersGrimm Spectaculathon. ’Bonding with that cast was so
amazing, and it really felt likeI had an impact and was doingsomething great.”
Hagermoser aspires tosomeday be a professionaldirector, seeking as many op-portunities to flex her directo-rial muscles and expand herknowledge of theater.
On June 25, she directeda student-run production of“Steel Magnolias” at the Oak-brook Terrace Theater. Dayslater, she packed and departedfor the summer-long nationalCherubs theatre arts programat Northwestern University,which is offered through theNational High School Insti-tute.
Additionally, Hagermoser
has taken a leadership roleon the Hinsdale Central Dra-ma Advisory Board, helpingcoordinate the 150-student or-ganization, which producesfive major theatre productionsannually. Come fall, she willeven teach introductory dra-ma class at the high school.
“I like keeping busy,” Ha-germoser said. “Sometimesits a challenge to balance the-ater, camps and everythingelse with school, but it’s what Ilove to do, what I’m passionateabout.”
Her work and dedicationhave not gone unnoticed.
This spring, she wasawarded Hinsdale CentralHigh School’s highest awardfor leadership in theater, theChristine Hicks Theatre Lead-ership Award. She also wasgiven the highest honor by theInternational Thespian Soci-ety, the Honor Thespian Rank,bestowed to students whocomplete more than. 500 hours
high school theater work.

District 86 should not hire
uncertified nurses
To the Editor:We are writing to express our
concern about staffing decisionsbeing made by the District 86Board of Education. We arevery disappointed that nurseswithout school nurse certifica-tion have been hired. We areconcerned about the delay inhiring replacements for retiringteachers. Haven’t the mostoutstanding candidates alreadysigned contracts for the comingyear? When are the teachersgoing to be hired to providefor the increased enrollment inDistrict 86?The current Board majority
seems to be intent on curbingcosts on the backs of teachingstaff. We believe the excellenceof our schools depends hugelyon the continued excellence ofour teaching staff. Our schoolswill not continue to be out-standing by adding three newbusiness office positions at acost of $325,000 in salary plusfull benefits, issuing a no bidcontract for $27,500 to verifystudent residency, or allowingboard members access to confi-dential student records.The quality of our schools will
deteriorate unless the Boardfocuses on competitive sala-ries and benefits for the mostoutstanding teachers. Therecertainly can be no complaintsabout lack of money since this isthe Board that voted for a zerotax levy.
Janice and Richard KingmanClarendon Hills
Does the District 86 board
want a teachers strike?
To the Editor:
From the beginning, it hasseemed that the new District86 board majority wanted ateachers’ strike. One membereven stated that people shouldfeel privileged to teach in thisdistrict and don’t need topcompensation levels. The Boardhas engaged in innuendos andpersonal attacks to disrespectthe union and the teachers.The teachers have been trying
since 2013 to negotiate theircontract that ends this June 30.It was the union that asked fora federal mediator to facilitatemeetings. Finally, in desperationthe teachers voted unanimouslyto go on strike if the contractends and there is no new rea-sonable offer.Since taking office, this board
has spent at least $856,000 onnewly created non-educationalexpenses. It is true that as soonas the election votes werecounted, administrators beganto flee, necessitating an expen-sive executive search for interimand permanent people. Theboard also created anotherexpensive new administrativeposition.We believe the zero levy vote
was not really to save taxpay-ers a few dollars. The zero levycoupled with wild non-educa-tional spending was designedto empty the coffers beforenegotiations with the teacher’sunion began. The many boardpress releases maligning unionsand this union are proof.The community sees the
board’s wasteful and recklessactions. We support the dedicat-ed professionals who teach ourstudents.

2 Dem candidates off November ballotBy NATHAN LURZ
The Democratic side of theballot will be a bit shorter thisNovember after a ruling lastweek by the DuPage CountyElection Commission – andthere may be more to come.
Despite not holding pri-mary elections in the DuPageCounty districts 1, 2 and 5;forest preserve district presi-dent; and county board chair-man seats, the DemocraticParty of DuPage County nom-inated several political hope-fuls in late April and earlyMay to collect signatures toappear on the ballot. All hadto collect a minimum numberof signatures to enter the elec-tion.
On Friday, the commissiondecided two of the party en-trants – Brian Wolter and MaxJ. Havlick – were ineligiblebecause they did not collectenough valid signatures, saidBob Peickert, party chairmanand county board chairmanhopeful.
“I give them both a lot ofcredit,” Peickert said. “They
came in late, they didn’t de-cide to put their name in fornomination until late in theprocess. … It’s unfortunate,and we made it a good effort,but we knew it would be dif-ficult.”
No candidates presentedthemselves during the party’srecruitment process for theprimary elections in March,Peickert said in a previous in-terview.
The decisions mean bothJoe Cantore, who will run forforest preserve district presi-dent, and Pete DiCianni, whois vying for District 2, willnow be unopposed.
And the commission maynot be done.

Trauma robs people of feeling safe. It interrupts their worldview and can alter it forever. And traumatic experiences aremore pervasive than one might think.
Research suggests about 25 percent of American childrenwill experience at least one traumatic event by age 16. Inaddition, one in four teens reports some form of dating abuse.While we can never truly know how the past experiences ofothers might have affected them, it is important we are awareof its consequences and takethis into account in all of ourdealings with others.
Family Shelter ServiceDirector of Programs JenGabrenya writes a weeklyFacebook post titled “Trau-ma-Informed Tuesdays,”which discusses the effects of trauma and how it informs allof our interactions at Family Shelter Service, where we workwith people impacted by domestic abuse.
Following are excerpts from Gabrenya’s Facebook posts:“At Family Shelter Service, we must recognize the traumas
that we as caretakers have experienced and honor the paineach of us suffered as we walk alongside our clients on theirown journey. It’s amazing how often we over-think what workwith trauma survivors ‘should’ look like. When in reality,healing happens merely by building a relationship and offeringsmall but powerful doses of positive interactions.
“Trauma survivors often suffer from depression and adiminished interest in routine activities. They may also lackthe confidence to present themselves in a positive way whenseeking employment. Family Shelter Service’s Career Clubprogram was specifically designed to help survivors identifyand market their skills when conducting a job search. Butmore importantly, we help them recreate a positive image ofthemselves – so often forgotten after years of abuse.
“To assist individuals seeking Orders of Protection, DuPageCounty has provided Family Shelter Service with an officespace at the courthouse. To help trauma survivors feel moresafe in this space, we recently rearranged it to be more welcom-ing. Now the front desk is always staffed, the space is well-litwith comfortable seating and computers for filling out onlineOPs offer added privacy.”
You can follow Jen Gabrenya’s “Trauma-Informed Tues-days” posts on Family Shelter Service’s Facebook page, whichcan be accessed through www.familyshelterservice.org orat www.facebook.com/familyshelterservice.

Peickert said he re-mained hopeful not only forthe outcome of the commit-tee’s decisions, but also theparty’s electoral hopes.
“I think once the elector-al board rules, which we’rehopeful will be in our favor,we will stack up fairly wellin the November election,”Peickert said.

LA GRANGE – While myyears in the Chicago areahave opened me up to a widerange of ethnic cuisines,the joy of a quality Indianrestaurant lights my fire ina very special way – and notjust because of the occasionalburning-hot spiciness.
The combination of exoticflavors, the spicy sauces, andthe fact that everything iseaten with a bed of deliciouscarbs – all make it hard tobeat. Sometimes, the spicescan be a little heavy-handed,overwhelming the main com-ponents of the dish – the veg-gies or meat – and everythingelse. While that’s not alwaysa bad thing, it can make for aone-note taste.
Not so with La Grange’sKama Indian Bistro. A roman-tically lit, upscale offering byVikram and Agnes Singh, itbalances depth and accessibil-ity of flavor with all the tra-ditional notes even the mostcasual of Indian food fans willappreciate.
As with any good Indianmeal, my date and I startedout with an order of samosas,a type of turnover. The firstthing we assessed was thefried dough on the outside– perfectly done and crispywithout a hint of grease. Wenoticed that it didn’t smack usin the face with a ton of spici-ness, allowing us to betterenjoy the vegetables inside,including the small peas thatprovided a change of texture,instead of simply a tinge ofcolor.
Then came the main dish-es, all of which hit a similarbalance, and offered a distinctexample of the restaurant’sdeftness at letting multipletastes shine.
The chicken tikka masalawas very good, probably thefavorite dish of the night.Often, sauces can get weigheddown with too much yogurt orcream, flattening a lot of theflavor. Kama’s dish featuredprotein that was fairly moistwith just a hint of char to adda smokey touch, and a surpris-ingly light sauce that had
hints of citrus with a lot ofdepth – perfect for sopping upwith buttery good naan.
The spinach masala withpaneer was another primeexample of Kama’s skill. Ittook me awhile to realizewhy I loved the dish so much.It somehow tasted fresherthan what I was used to, but I
couldn’t figure out why. Sud-denly, it came to me – I couldactually taste the spinachamong all the other intenseflavors. The soft paneer wasalso very good, and offered acomplex overtone to the freshcheese.
Finally, yielding to tempta-tion, we ordered a side portion
of eggplant bharta, a lovely,fire-baked, mashed eggplantcooked with onion andtomato, and a standby of mypersonal Indian repertoire.There, each ingredient stoodon its own just enough to bedetected, but melded into aunique taste.
Fusion items dot the Kamamenu, such as lamb tacos withspicy lamb, pico de gallo andcrumbled paneer, while glu-ten-free and vegan dishes areplentiful. A full bar is avail-
able, including craft beer.The wait staff was appro-
priately attentive, stoppingby to refill water glasses andcheck in, but careful not tointerrupt the flow of con-versation. The restaurant,in its new, larger location,preserves an intimate atmo-sphere, with decorative Indi-an pillows along the boothsand ornate candles on eachtable.
While the menu is a tadmore expensive than run-of-the-mill Indian fare, Kamaups the ante on creativecuisine. It was indicative of agood shared meal that we bothcontinued picking at our foodlong after we had reached thepoint of fullness, craving thatone last tidbit of warm, spicygoodness. If that’s not tellingof its quality, I’m not surewhat is.

Hoops at homeBy JASON ROSSI
LISLE – For basketballplayers hoping to improvetheir skills over the summer,trips to far-flungcollege campus-es are the norm.
The PlayersCamp is flippingthe script.
Players fromthe Universityof Illinois andthe Universityof Wisconsin, including Lislenative and UW standout FrankKaminsky, will bring the col-lege talent to the kids at a pairof camps Saturday and Sundayat Walker Athletics in Lisle.
“I’ve always been aroundbasketball and I attended a lotof camps as a kid,” said SeanHarrington, the former ElginHigh School and U of I stand-
out who started The PlayersCamp. “Being from the sub-urbs, the schools were hoursaway and you’d have to packfor three or four days.
“I thought, how cool wouldit be if the kids in collegewould come to our area? Howcool would it be to bring eliteplayers to the suburbs andhave kids go out and competeand learn from those guys?”
Kaminsky played highschool ball at Benet Academyand had a standout 2013-14season for Wisconsin as theBadgers made the Final Fourin the NCAA tournament. Ka-minsky set a Wisconsin sin-gle-game record with 43 pointsagainst North Dakota in No-vember, led the Badgers byaveraging 13.9 points and 6.3rebounds per game, was twicenamed Big Ten Player of theWeek, was Big Ten all-confer-ence first team and was theMost Outstanding Player inthe west region of the NCAAtournament.
Walker Athletics rents outcourts for basketball, volley-ball and badminton and alsohas indoor batting cages forbaseball and softball.
“We’re very excited aboutthis,” said Teresa Walker, sec-retary at Walker Sports. “Seanis very excited about it, and I
think he picked the right placefor it. I’d like to keep it an an-nual thing because I think it’sa nice thing for the communi-ty.”
Having players and teamsof that pedigree is exactly whatHarrington had in mind whenhe envisioned the camps.
“Guys are available only afew weekends of the summer,so it was really the only time todo it,” Harrington said. “Wis-consin was interested in it,so I think it worked out well,and we have a Final Four teamwith lots of returning playersdoing it.”
Kaminsky will be joined byeight of his Wisconsin team-mates at the camp Sunday.Eight University of Illinoisplayers, including RayvonteRice and Tracy Abrams, theIllini’s top two scorers last sea-son, will be the instructors at acamp on Saturday.
The camps are for boys en-tering grades 3 through 12 andoffer players the perfect oppor-tunity to get a taste of what col-lege basketball is like.
“The camps are going tohave drills and activities thoseguys do at school,” Harringtonsaid. “Campers are going to geta chance to see how the play-ers work out, and the playersare going to break down drillsand teach the campers.”
The camp will be benefi-cial not only for the partici-pants, but for the teachers, too.Harrington worked with theNCAA and is able to pay theplayers for their time at thecamp.
“I had to go through a lotof things with NCAA compli-ance to make sure it’s legal,”Harrington said, “but I canpay them to do what they love,which is play basketball andteach basketball.”

Former U.S. Soccer leader enjoying currentWorld CupBy JASON ROSSI
The U.S. Men’s NationalSoccer Team enjoyed one ofits best runs in the World Cupas the underdog squad sur-vived a tough draw in groupplay to advance to the knock-out stage.
Hank Steinbrecher playeda big part in building U.S.Soccer to the level it’s atcurrently.
The Glen Ellyn residentand former Secretary Generalof the United States SoccerFederation – commonlyknown as U.S. Soccer – startedin the game as a player, thenas college coach and eventu-ally was a key figure for U.S.Soccer when it hosted the1994 World Cup and when theWomen’s National Team host-ed and won the 1999 WorldCup.
Steinbrecher took time totalk with sports editor JasonRossi about his time with U.S.Soccer, the current state ofsoccer in the country and hisplans Sunday for the WorldCup final.
Rossi: How did you arrive at U.S.
Soccer?
Steinbrecher: It was kindof serpentine. I played incollege (at Davis & ElkinsCollege), then I coached for 11years and ended up at BostonUniversity (from 1981-84),and I was asked to direct theOlympic venue at Harvard in1984.
Then I went to work for Ga-torade as the director of sportsmarketing, and when the U.S.was awarded the World Cup(in 1988), I was asked to cometo U.S. Soccer. I was deeplyinvolved in the World Cups in1990, 1994 and 1999.
Rossi: Do you everwant to go
back?
Steinbrecher: There are cer-tainly things I miss. We host-ed two World Cups and theOlympics, and I don’t miss thepressure of it. I don’t miss thepolitics of sports, and thereare a lot of politics in sports.
When I left U.S. Soccer, Ileft on top after we won the1999 World Cup. There’s nobetter way to leave.
Rossi: What are you most proud
of from your time at U.S. Soccer?
Steinbrecher: I really think ofthree things.
First, professionalizingthe office. Before my time itwas kind of a mom-and-popoperation.
Second, our win over Co-lumbia in 1994 (the first WorldCup victory for the U.S. since1950). It was tragic, of course,as a player from Columbiawas killed afterward, but itwas very exciting.
Finally, our win in theWomen’s World Cup in 1999.
Overall, I’m very happy tosee where the sport is today inthis country.
Rossi: What are your thoughts on
this year’s World Cup?
Steinbrecher: This is the firstone I’ve missed since 1986. Iwrote to Dan Flynn (the cur-rent Secretary General of U.S.Soccer) and told him, ‘I knowthe excitement, I know thepressure and I know the thrillof being there, and I send myregards to you.’
But if I was there, then Iwouldn’t be here to see howeveryone got excited for thegames here. There were 20,000fans at Grant Park. I was inAtlanta for a U.S. game andwent to a bar to watch it andit was jam packed. It was likethat everywhere. The sport istaking a major step this year.
Rossi: Any plans for the World
Cup final this weekend?
Steinbrecher: There’s a littleItalian restaurant in [GlenEllyn], Marinella ItalianRestaurant, Joe Marinella’splace. They’re having a WorldCup viewing party, and that’swhere I’ll be.
Funny story, I was inGermany [for the World Cupin 2006], and I had tickets for
the final. I called up Joe, andI said, ‘Joe, I’ve got tickets forthe final, I’ll take care of you.’He told me he was having aviewing party at the restau-rant and couldn’t come. I soldmy tickets and came homeand went to the viewing party.
Rossi: What was your role in
bringing the Women’s World Cup to
the U.S.?
Steinbrecher: I would say I wasa small ball bearing in a verybig wheel. To bring the WorldCup here, from organizing andthe bid process, it required a lotof work from a lot of people. Ithink we had a head start withthe women’s team because ofTitle IX and the gender equalitywe had in this country.
Rossi: What’s been keeping you
busy these days?
Steinbrecher: I establishedmy own business, TouchlineConsulting, and I do sportsconsulting. It started outbeing only soccer [consulting],but I’ve really become more ofa consultant to CEOs. Skyc-am, I’ve been consulting with
them for eight years.
Hank Stein-brecher showsoff some of hissoccer memo-rabilia July 2 athis Glen Ellynhome. The for-mer secretarygeneral of U.S.Soccer, Stein-brecher was akey figure forthe nationalteam programsat the time ofthe 1994 WorldCup and 1999Women’s WorldCup when theU.S. won.
