YARD WASTE
Yard waste pickup resumes in April with the first pickup taking place on Friday, April 6th. Residents can purchase stickers at the Village Hall to cover the cost of a 35 gallon can or biodegradable bag of yard waste. Additionally, residents can contact Waste Management at 800-796-9696 to arrange for a subscription yard waste service.

PICNICS IN THE PARK
We have been experiencing an early spring which is bringing many families out to enjoy our parks. The Village provides shelters at Sunnyside Memorial Park, Hiller Park and Rescue Squad Memorial Park which may be rented for private functions for a small fee. CLICK HERE for more information regarding the rental of Village park shelters.

WELL WISHES TO ELLEN BATHJE
Deputy Clerk Ellen Bathje retired at the end of March after working the past three years in the Village's Administration Department. She will continue to serve on the Village's Community Affairs Committee but will be truly missed at the Village Hall. We wish her all the best in her retirement.

A WARM WELCOME TO MARIKAY GEBIS
Marikay Gebis has joined the Village's administrative staff to replace Ellen Bathje. We look forward to working with Marikay and hope that you will join us in welcoming her when you call or stop by the Village Hall.
