News from Kendall County by Sheryl Krase

Kendall County seems to be getting some changes when it come to the new

map and how we will be represented in government. With the county population now reaching

114,736 people change is in the Air. On the Congressional Side Kendall county will now be

represented in Washington with the 11th and 14 Congressional Districts. On the State Senate Side

Kendall will be represented by four senate districts with Senator Linda Holmes and Senator Chris

Lauzen seeing their portion of Kendall Reduced. On the State House side the county will be

represented also by four state house districts with representative Hatcher and Representative Cross

having their districts being reduced and representing other areas as well. At the County Level there

has been much debate about how to redistrict and how the county can equally be represented. During

public hearings on the districts multiple plans were submitted ranging from 10 district, 9 districts, 5

district proposals, and retaining the 2 district representation plan. At the last ad hoc committee

meeting three proposals were submitted to the board for the board’s final approval, 2 plans for a two

district representation and a five district proposal. The Kendall County Board will be meeting June 7th

to finalize their redistricting for Kendall County.

Chicago Bulls Go Home by Tim Flowers

The Chicago Bulls lost in the Eastern Conference Finals to the Miami Heat 4 games to

1. Behind the big three of James, Wade, Bosh the Bulls could not counter the talent of

the trio. Each game in the series was close but it was evident this team did not have the

core players to shut down the future Hall of Famers who came together in the offseason

in one of the wildest free agent periods of all-time. It is funny if you remember that

Lebron James was in late negations with the Bulls when he made his decision to head to

south beach. The Bulls instead signed Carlos Boozer to add to Joakim Noah and Derrick

Rose to counter the heats talented trio. However like the teams of the late 80’s and early

90’s this team needs a few more pieces before they can advance and look at

championships again being hung in the rafters down at the Mad House on west Madison.

While you are Out by Ken Musich

This is a first for me and a treat at the same time recently I was asked by the editor of

the paper to write an article for our entertainment section and a piece on a local eatery

boot. I chose Paulie’s bar and grill in Aurora located 444 north Eola Road in Aurora.

When you enter you are greeted by Paulie’s himself a young man of 35. You are then either

asked do you want to sit at a table or bar you are given your choice. I chose to sit at the Bar

and was greeted by Kim a wonderful young women who took the time to ask me how my

day was going. Kim suggested some specials and so I ordered the Cesar Salad. A Healthy

Choice and ordered the Ice Tea. During my meal Paulie’s and Kim both took the time to

see how it was going and Paulie’s even sat down and spent time talking to me about the

Chicago Whites Sox and how the team was doing. I found the service and atmosphere to be

delightful and felt at home even thou I had just stopped in for the first time. Paulie’s has

been serving the neighborhoods for four years and if you ask the patrons they find it

delightful especially the patio

With the draft on the Horizon and free agency starting the Bulls need to look to add some

depth and defense on the post. They also should look for a sharp shooter who can

spread the floor to create opportunities for Derrick Rose. The bulls need to add a play

maker and let Rose concentrate on scoring this may pose as a defensive issue against

bigger guards by moving him to shooting guard. Looking to free agency the Bulls need a

scorer in the Center position to create a new dynamic on the floor with a dominate big

man. The Bulls like the dynasty teams needs a few more adjustments and then we can

begin to celebrate in Grant Park.

Memorial Day Observances

Business View with Jennifer Flowers

Right on the corner and Right on the price has been the reputation for the Chevy Giant for almost 34 years. Getting their start in Yorkville a young mechanic named Ron Westphal had a dream and that was to bring the heartbeat of America right here to Kendall County. With a few dollars in his pocket and a vision he set up shop in an old filling station and the Westphal family was born. In 1980 he hired a young man to be a car porter named Dan Schwebke who is now the general manger. All those years ago no one would have dreamed that the Westphal Family would be moving in to their new home on the present site located at 1425 West Ogden Avenue having out grown their current facility. Over the years Westphal has provided top level service from Reta Bohn in the Sales Department to Paul in parts, or Mike and Rick in Service the Westphal Family is here to serve in helping to bring you the that special service that only Westphal can provide. So take an opportunity and stop down to see Westphal Chevy located 1425 West Odgen Ave in Aurora right on the

corner and right on the price. Ron Westphal Chevy
