Claire,
You present a very well thought out understanding of TIFs and your logic is impeccable.

I agree with you but I don't know if we as just citizen's can do anything to stop that practice. I…Read More wish that each cyclist had to have a license, and that it was enforced by laws and police, on the bike so that people could report occurrences and have the person receive a ticket just like a person driving an auto. That would make sense.

A couple of years ago, Villa Park installed "State Law- must stop for pedestrians" signs…Read More on the roadways where the Great Western and Prairie Paths cross. I saw a big increase in path users barreling across the streets with no regard for the stop signs on the path.

I was really hoping that the Elmhurst Police would sound in on this info-I do understand kids will…Read More be kids, but if one of them is hurt, that adult driver will need to live with that for the rest of their life-so let's come up with a solution for both bicyclist and cars to be in harmony. I really think that a step up in enforcement in the bicycle laws would help-just like the drunk driving laws-believe me the bicycle laws are just as important.
Next year #2 can become #1.
The York Lacrosse program is in its sixth year, but this was only the second year that lacrosse was a fully sanctioned sport at York HS. As one commenter posted before, most of the boys had never played lacrosse before their freshman year. There was no "feeder" programs in 3-8 grades as there are now. For the boys to have a winning season, let alone make the championship game, is quite an accomplishment. One point to make: there are actually two championship games, one for the "A" division and one for the "B" division. The "A" teams have programs that have been around for a while (examples: LT and Hinsdale Central). The "B" teams have newer programs. This is the division that the Dukes are in. The classifications , "A" or "B" do not reflect on the quality of the teams, only on how long the programs have been around. By winning the Lacrosse Cup Championship, Grayslake North automatically becomes an "A" team next year. In conclusion, please take the time and give these boys the credit that they have earned. York Lacrosse, both boys and girls, has a very strong future!
