Meet the Mayor
Village of Gurnee Mayor Kristina Kovarik.
Having wings has certain benefits. Like not having to register for a key card.
June 26th at the Clubhouse
At the next regular Board of Direc-tor’s meeting, Mayor Kristina Kovarik has agreed to come down and answer any questions of the residents and par-ticipate in our parliamentary procedure.
If you’re interested in attending, there will be plenty of seating available at the clubhouse. Bring your list of questions!

After much labor and half-full glasses of optimism, the new
HeatherRidge website is ready to accept your mouseclicks.
We have decided to launch it only somewhat complete to get a feel for how residents respond to it. Some of the links are not yet operational, but content is being added all the time.
The new site is built to be your one-stop shop for all things HeatherRidge.
We would like to hear your input! Send your comments and suggestions to [email protected]. It is your site as much at it is our labor of love.
Mallards Can’t ReadA HeatherRidge study supports
empirical evidence that Mallards can-not read. Seen here, one week before Memorial day, these trespassers clearly could not comprehend the sign that indicated the pool was closed.
In light of findings, The HUA rec-ommends you shout angrily at a bird the next time you see one.
Web Launch!

Letter from the Editor
In the world today, it seems that the only time when people put pen to
paper is when something is wrong or a corrective action is required.
We have received a letter we would like to share with all of you as to how one of our residents feels. After living here 10 years, Shelley and Honey have
picked up pen and paper and took the time to say thank you to the great staff we have here at HeatherRidge. Please take the time to read this great letter and to the staff here at HeatherRidge, once again, thank you for your service.
Mark [email protected]
Due to the increasing popularity of this column, we had quite a few con-tenders to choose from this month and it was not easy! But alas, the throne has room for only one.
After some long nights of delibera-tion, we decided that the winner from the District of Hidden Hills is Ken Kasprzak’s cat Ozzy. Congratulations!
We’d like to thank all those who contributed this month, and remind you that you are still in the running. The C.P.Y. has only a one month reign, after all.

Dear HeatherRidge Security, Maintenance, and Landscape Departments:
I was writing to a friend this morn-ing, explaining why I wanted to bring some treats over to the office today. Today happens to be my 10 Year An-niversary at HeatherRidge and I wanted to do something special. As I wrote out my explanation, I thought I may as well copy it and include it as a Thank-you note since it expressed my sentiments exactly!
The Groundskeepers, pool guys, and plow-boys do an awesome job keeping the place safe, functional and beautiful and Security obviously does a good job keeping the bad guys out!
So yeah, I have a lot to be thankful for around here. And I want to let them know!
So, to the unsung heroes of HeatherRidge - Thanks for a wonderful 10 years!
Most Sincerely,Shelley and Honey
Hidden Hills
“...I just wanted to acknowledge how grateful I am for their services, protection and coutesy. The Grounds and Mainte-nance guys always stop what they are doing to let us pass by safely and if we happen to pass at a distance they always wave. The security guys will always stop and chat if we’re close enough, and they responded quickly every time I’ve ever called (two or three times over the years; and if I’ve only had “issues” three times in 10 years, that says a lot about my comfort and safety here!)”

June’s BEST DRAWING
WE HAVE EVER SEEN
This is another fantastic sketch by one of our favorite HeatherRidge art-ists, Marguerite Pignatari. Apart from her wonderful works of art, she can take a photo of your pet and create a one-of-a-kind pencil drawing from it.
If that sounds good to you (and it sure is) give her a call at 847-970-0587.
Are you or your kids local artists? Send us your stuff and we’ll publish it! Email [email protected] or swing by the HeatherRidge office with your drawings.
In Memory of Rick Francisco
Rick Francisco passed away in Florida Sunday, May 13th, 2012.
Rick and Marcy moved to Tampa Flor-ida in 2009 and truly
enjoyed their retirement and the com-panionship of other friends who have moved down to communities in Florida. Rick continued community participa-tion as an EMS First Responder and by serving on the Board of the Tampa Bay Men’s Golf Association.
Friends and neighbors are stunned by Rick’s sudden death by heart attack at age 61. Rick was active in our Heath-erRidge community and had worked as Chairman of the Golf Committee for years, organized many golf outings, was on the Board of the HeatherRidge Townhome Association #1. Rick served on the HUA Board of Directors and as Golf Committee Chairman for several years.
Rick and Marcy were active in HeatherRidge Golf Leagues and out-ings. Rick loved to ski and had a Black Belt in Karate, he enjoyed tennis, was a scuba instructor, and enjoyed sailing on their sailboat. Rick retired in 2004 after years of service as Commander of Ranger Police with the Lake County Forest Preserve District.
Our heartfelt sadness and prayers go out to Marcy, their families and friends. Visitation and Mass were held on May 17/18. Rick was a wonderful friend to many, he was always there to help, and will be greatly missed. Rest in Peace, Rick.
Marcy’s address is available at the HUA office for contact and condolences.

Phone Scams Targeting Elderly on the IncreaseMar 19,2012 Gurnee, IL
The Gurnee Police Department is seeing an up-tick in residents being approached with the “Grandparent” phone scam. Many older consumers are fooled by this scam because of bad phone connections, hearing impairment, some confusion, or other complications. The scam works like this: A caller, usu-ally male, will contact an elderly person and identify them-selves as the victim’s grandchild. The “grandchild” tells the victim that he’s been arrested and needs bond money to be wired in order for him to be released.
Sometimes, a second person inter-jects acting as a police officer or lawyer in an effort to lend credibility to the story. The caller will also ask that the victim not contact other family mem-bers because they “don’t want to get in trouble.” The details of this type of scam can change but the central theme is that some family member or friend is in trouble somewhere and they need you to wire them money.
Lately these scams have been re-ceived via phone calls. Sometimes they begin as emails with the same type of story. Recently. money was wired to a location in Lima, Peru. The wire transfer is almost always requested to be sent to an out-of-country location. We have
reason to believe this most recent round of calls are originating from Canada.
The Gurnee Police Department would like this information to get into the hands of the targeted population; our elderly citizens. Please share this with them as part of a prevention effort.
Prevention
The easiest way to avoid being a victim is to not offer any information to the caller. If the caller says, “This is your favorite grandson,” ask “Which one?”
If the caller asks you to guess who it is, refuse. Instead, answer the ques-
tion “Do you know who this is?” with “No, I don’t. Who is it?” Grandparents who are contacted with such a request should do whatever is necessary to con-firm their grandchildren’s whereabouts.
Also, keep in mind that an urgent request to wire transfer money is often a sign of a scam. Wiring money is one of the most common ways consumers lose money to con artists.
Anyone having information or ques-tions may contact the Gurnee Police Department at 847-599-7000.
Contact: Cmdr Jay J. Patrick E-mail: [email protected]
Telephone: 847.599.7000
If the caller asks you to guess who it is, refuse. Instead, answer the question “Do you know who this is?” with “No, I don’t. Who is it?”
It’s A Frickin’ Elephant! We who have taught, or love children who have been taught, know this is funny! From the diary of a Pre-School Teacher. “My five-year old students are learn-ing to read. Yesterday one of them pointed at a picture in a zoo book and said,
“Look at this! It’s a frickin’ elephant!”
I took a deep breath, then asked... ”What did you call it?”
“It’s a frickin’ elephant! It says so on the picture!”
And so it does...
Hooked on phonics! Ain’t it wonderful?Now that’s funny, I don’t care who you are.

GeocachingThis is one of my favorite outdoor ac-
tivities. I can find no other circumstance where you can tell bystanders that you are looking for treasure without the luxury of a pirate’s costume to ease their inevitable looks of concern.
For those adventurous among you, geocaching is a high-tech hide-and-seek game played all over the world. With the aid of a Global Positioning System (GPS), you can zero in on a hidden treasure (or caches) that some-one else has planted and logged into the web at geocaching.com. You plug the coordinates into your GPS device or smartphone and it takes you to the spot where it is (roughly) hidden, and it’s up to your cunning and treasure-finding ability to locate it.
Most are very plainly hidden and easy to find; others are extremely clever, where you must enter the devious mind of the person who hid it in order to succeed.
Though this game is not new to me, I was particularly curious about just how many geocaches are actively hidden in
the world. Since the game started in 2000 when the GPS unlocked for con-sumers and accuracy improved, almost every country in the world (including Antarctica) has a cache hidden within it.
There are so many here in the U.S., it is 100% likely you have walked within 50 feet of one this past week.
When I googled my inquiry, it turns out there are close to 1.8 million active caches worldwide - Way more than I originally thought!
If this activity sounds fun, try finding my cache. Google “GC26KEG”, follow the instructions in the link, and the first one to email [email protected] will have their name published in the Happenings! If you take any of the treasure within the cache, leave some-thing of equal or greater value. (Please take care in finding it, as it is a bit bushy where it is hidden.)
Mike [email protected]
Up for a treasure hunt? The black dots mark the spot! Each one was placed by someone different, and some have been there for several years. This is just HeatherRidge; there many, many more.
StoneyBrook Architec-tural Inspections

Cambridge at HeatherRidge Homeowners Association
Homeowner’s Meeting Minutes for Wednesday, May 16, 2012
Call To Order. President Linda Kirby called the
meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. Board members in attendance were: Linda Kirby, Patricia Leese, Anne Klytta, Norm LaBelle and Rick Sainz.
Delegates in attendance: Eva Pihuleac.Approval Of Minutes.
The unconfirmed Board minutes of March 21, 2012 were reviewed. Pat Leese moved and Norm LaBelle sec-onded to approve the minutes as written. The motion passed unanimously.Treasurer’s Report.
Pat Leese went over the highlights of the April Financial Statements. Everything is in order; we are operat-ing at a better positive variance than anticipated.Delegate Reports.
Eva said that there was nothing to report.
Committee Reports
Architectural. Rick Sainz presented a brief sum-
mary of the spring home inspection. Eight homes are in perfect condition and most homes are in good condition. The majority of violations are the expected weather related ones such as decks needing maintenance and trim needing paint. One home was cited for changes made without ATCHI approval and the homeowner was asked to obtain approval after the fact. The Board also agreed to cite two homes that have siding of differ-ent colors. This condition has existed for many years but the Board decided that it is still a serious violation, which needs to be addressed. Social/Welcoming.
At least 20 people attended the last welcoming committee meeting, none from Cambridge.
Old Business
Driveways. The driveways were completed in
early May and they look wonderful. Linda thanked Anne Klytta for all the good, hard work she put into this project. Anne in return thanked Linda for her assistance in the latter parts of the project. I think I can say with certainty that those of us who had our driveways replaced thank both Anne and Linda for a job well done.
New Business
Cd Renewal. Barb Snarski out financial manager
suggested that Cambridge renew a CD about to mature since she doesn’t antici-pate any need for those funds the next 12 months. Pat Leese suggested that Barb look into opening a new CD rather than letting the bank renew it because we can get a slightly better rate. Linda will talk to Barb about this. Rick moved to renew and Pat seconded and the motion carried unanimously.Neighborhood Watch Program.
Linda discussed the community’s discussions with the Gurnee police dept. to join in the Neighborhood Watch Program. The more residents that are willing to participate the better such a program would work. All that resident’s have to do is keep their eyes and ears open and report unusual or out of the or-dinary circumstances for the police or our Security dept. to look into. HeatherRidge has a very low crime rate when compared with other neighborhoods in the area and one of the main reasons has to be that we have a full time Security Dept. If we added Neighborhood Watch to the community, it could only help make the crime rate become smaller. Architectural.
Norm reminded the Board that last summer a company that washes home exteriors was going to be asked to give us
a demonstration of their abilities. Linda is going to contact the company to get the ball rolling. Our homes exteriors are extremely dirty and we need to do something about it.Foreclosures.
Norm brought up the issue of foreclosures and how it is affecting Cambridge. He asked Linda if she was aware how other Boards were handling these issue. Linda replied that other Boards, after exhausting all meaningful recourses to collect assessments are turning the matter over to Umbrella. Linda also mentioned that eventually when the financial institution sells the property, the homeowners associations are only guaranteed to recover 6 months of assessments. It should be noted that Cambridge has 2 homes in foreclosure, which is only 4% of the total number of homes. Because Cambridge keeps only a small amount of the assessments col-lected each month, our biggest concern is not so much the collection of assessments but the condition of the homes, in par-ticular one that has been abandoned by the previous homeowner for over 2 years. We have written the financial institution that has title of the property to try and get architectural violations corrected but we’ve had no luck so far. Because this property is becoming an eye sore, Linda is going to talk to Al Villasenor to have the HeatherRidge attorney get involved in the matter. Homeowner’s Comments.
No homeowners were present. Adjournment.
Having nothing else to discuss, Rick Sainz made a motion to adjourn and Pat Leese seconded. The motion carried and the meeting was adjourned at 3519 pm. The next meeting is Wednesday July 18, 2012. Linda asked Rick to run the meet-ing if she is unable to attend that day.
Respectfully submitted, Rick Sainz, Board Secretary

11Board of Director’s Meeting
Board Of Directors Regular Meeting
HeatherRidge Umbrella Association (HUA) - May 22, 2012
These minutes have not yet been approved by the HUA Board. Any corrections, additions, or deletions will be made at the next regular HUA Board meeting prior to official approval.
President Todd Campbell called the meeting to order at 7:00 pm. Present: Todd Campbell, Sam Dent, Owen Hill, Mark Hutchison, Paul Kelly, Linda Kirby, and Carole Stern. Absent: Sam Dent, Cris Mekuly and Terry Potash. President’s Remarks
Todd Campbell noted that on June 26, 2012 Mayor Kristi Kovarik will be at the meeting. Residents are requested to sub-mit questions to the HUA office for our courtesy memo by Friday, June 15, 2012. Todd noted that former Board Director Rick Francisco passed away unexpectedly in May, please keep his wife, family, and friends in your thoughts and prayers.Vice President’s Remarks:

Treasurer Paul Kelly gave the high-lights of the Treasurer’s Report. Mark Hutchison made a motion to receive and accept the Treasurer’s Report, seconded by Carole Stern. At vote, all aye, motion carried.Management Report:
A Management Report was submit-ted in writing and was available to the audience.
Al Villasenor will be meeting with Department Heads and the Board members in preparation for the budget-ing meetings. The report of the first quarter of 2012 for CRF operations was included in the packets and the major
issues were noted. The community dinner, show and music events have been well attended and contribute to the sense of community within HeatherRidge. The Covered Bridge structural repair has been put on hold for further review and consultation with the Village of Gurnee as the architectural and engineering firms would not bid on it. Plans to replace the Hidden Hills Recreation Center deck were cancelled and the deck has been refurbished by the Maintenance Department. The new building and zoning codes are considerably different than the original architecture prescribed and the new deck structure would have required changes to dimension and structure affecting the new siding that was done the past year. The pools will open Memorial Day weekend as planned. Linda Kirby made a motion to accept the Management Report, seconded by Carole Stern. At vote, all aye, motion carried.
Standing Committee Reports
Architecture and Maintenance Committee.No formal report or motion required.
The Committee continues to evaluate the fencing options and consider resident preferences. The cost of the fences and the useful life are comparable and most residents prefer the more rustic split-rail fences in wood rather than PVC. Paul Kelly made a motion to accept the Architecture and Maintenance Committee Report, seconded by Linda Kirby. At vote, all aye, motion carried. Audit Committee:
No formal report or motion required.Finance Committee:
A Finance Committee meeting was held on May 21, 2012. The proposal by Comcast for installing telecommunica-tions infrastructure within HeatherRidge was discussed and will follow in New Business. The April 2012 financials were reviewed and the Treasurer has reviewed
the checks issued for the past month, they are appropriate. Owen Hill made a motion, seconded by Mark Hutchison, to receive and accept the Finance Report and the Report of Expenditures for April 2012. At vote, all aye, motion carried. General Election and Oversight:
No formal report or motion required. Golf and Tennis Committee:
No formal report or motion required.Landscape Committee:
Al Villasenor reported for Cris Mekuly as she was unable to attend the meeting.

12 Board of Director’s Meeting
Police Department about establishing Neighborhood Watch. It still needs to be determined if there is enough inter-est and if it is genuinely needed. Todd Campbell requested that the Committee proceed with due diligence, but also with thorough evaluation and input from the Security Department.Tax, Legislation, Law, Contracts, Insurance And Special Issues (TLLCISI):
The Committee met on May 16 and the primary discussion was on the request from Comcast to install infrastructure. The Committee will make the recom-mendation to the Finance Committee to accept the infrastructure installation and easement option. Secondarily, both Comcast and AT&T would like to have exclusive marketing and advertising rights within HUA neighborhoods. Much more information and discussion must be done on the marketing and advertising requests. Mark Hutchison made a motion to receive and accept the TLLCISI Report , seconded by Paul Kelly. At vote, all aye, motion carried.Welcoming Committee:
The Welcoming Committee met on May 8, 2012 and 23 residents attended. The next regular meeting will be Tuesday, June 12, 2012. Linda Kirby did note that there are vendors that would like to attend the meetings to promote their product or service, but those requests will go to discussion with the HUA Board of Directors and committees before any decisions can be made.
Old Business
Election Process.There has been discussion on the most
appropriate method of holding elections for Directors of the HUA Board. Mark Hutchison made a motion to suspend the rules to allow discussion from the floor, seconded by Linda Kirby.
The House of Delegates has studied the election process and issued a memorandum (April 16, 2012) to the HUA Board of Directors unanimously
recommending that the election process follow the original HUA Declarations and By-Laws that were drawn up in 1975 with election of HUA Directors by the Delegates. After discussion and listening to opinions of the Board and residents, a motion was proposed. Mark Hutchison made the motion to continue the general election, seconded by Linda Kirby. At roll-call vote, four aye, one nay, one abstention, motion carried.
New Business
Comcast And At&T Proposed Agreements. (Enclosure)
Al Villasenor explained that there are two components to the proposals. The first is an easement agreement for Comcast to put telecommunications infrastructure in place throughout HUA that can handle the new technology and services Comcast would like to offer residents. Comcast is proposing com-pensation of $100 ‘per door’ or $95,600 to HUA for the installation and easement permission. Linda Kirby made a motion to accept the easement and infrastructure agreement with Comcast at the fee of $95,600 ($100 ‘per door’), amended to include the 10-year lease clause, seconded by Paul Kelly. At vote, all aye, motion carried. It is noted that Comcast would have the exclusive use of the infra-structure wiring. The proposal will be presented to the Corporate Attorney for legal review and approval.
The exclusive marketing rights proposed by both Comcast and AT&T need further review, evaluation, and legal consideration. The issues are tabled for now and the Publications Committee will also have input.Open Discussion For Homeowners.
Joan Karkow of the Hidden Hills Townhome neighborhood asked that the print on the HeatherRidge Happenings calendar be larger for legibility. There was discussion of the changes the newsletter has had with the new and updated news-letter format, the proposed availability
on the new web site. Consideration will be given for those who do not have computer access. The suggestions will be considered and implemented within the constrictions the production and printing processes allow. The help offered for proof-reading is gladly accepted but it is noted that there are very short time frames between compilation of the newsletter and necessity to print for distribution.
Linda Kirby made a motion to adjourn the meeting, seconded by Carole Stern; at vote, all aye, motion carried.
Adjournment at 7:55 pm. Next Meeting – Tuesday, June 26, 2012.

Clubhouse News
Now that the weather has warmed up it is time to come over to the Clubhouse on Friday evenings for an evening of food and relaxation.
In May we enjoyed our first Fish Fry. I think everyone enjoyed the food, friends and music. We will be planning another one soon. We continue to serve our burgers on TGIF nights and our cooks have added a few twists. You never know what new things they we will come up with so you will have to just come in and see for yourself.
I continue to plan events that I hope appeal to all segments of the HeatherRidge Community. Some are no charge and some for a modest charge but all planned for your enjoyment and June is no exception. We have plans from the beginning to end of the month with events.
On June 1st we will welcome to HeatherRidge for the first time Jeff Vecelius and his Neil Diamond Tribute Show. This is a dinner show. For $20 per person you will start off with a dinner buffet - 6pm follow by the show at 7pm. Show only $5.00. Food provided by Kim and Ellory’s Kitchen.
Speaking of Kim and Ellory’s Kitchen, on June 5th, Kim and Ellory Bisk will once again hold their cooking class. June’s topic; “Knife Skills & Asian Cooking”. You can bring your knife for some hands on training. Menu will be Shrimp Spring Rolls, Chicken Stir Fry with rice, pineapple w/lemon sauce. 7-9pm $35/person. Space is limited and reservations are required.
June 15th will be our last night with David Parker. David performs country music and will be moving out of the area in July and this will be one of his last performances in the area before he heads west. Show will begin at 8pm. If you have heard David play before come on in and enjoy his music and wish him well. If you haven’t heard David, come on in and listen to his music. You will be in for a treat.
June 29th we welcome back Sam Magdal and his “Trib-ute to Sinatra”. Dinner and Show $20.00/person. Din-ner begins at 6pm and show starts at 7pm. Space is limited and reservations are encouraged. Dinner provided by Kim and Ellory’s Kitchen. Show only $5.00.
I have started working on a few things in July. I hope to have Dick Eastman come in and perform in the Waterfall Lounge. Dick will be playing some of the greatest hits from the 60’s and 70’s getting everyone singing along. Date TBD.
July 3rd Cooking Class – Spanish Tapas. 7pm-9pm $35.Check the website, facebook or stop in for more info.
