Both traditional and new events are scheduled for the McHenry County Historical Museum in Union as it opens for its twelfth season. During May free admission days will be offered on Sunday, May Sth for all mothers, on May 15th for residents of Marengo Township, and on May 29th for residents of Chemung Town¬ ship.
The May 15th Marengo Day is being sponsored by both the Society and the Marengo Park District which will provide bus transportation for those from Marengo wishing to tour the museum. The following Sunday, May 22nd, promises to be a great treat for the entire family as the Ambassador Club members of the McHenry County 4-H clubs join with the Historical
Society to host a "Farm Activities" afternoon at the museum.
Between 1:30 and 4:30 museum visitors will have the opportunity to see sheep shearing, carding and spinning, watch goats being milked and see goat ice cream made, and watch angora rabbit fur spun. In addition there will be talks on cottage cheese making, food canning and freezing, as well as gardening demonstrations, sewing demonstrations and the showing of 4-H live stock with lots more in store.
Besides the special Sunday programs, the Society will again be hosting Wednesday quilting bees beginning May 4th. QuUters, both experienced and would-be quilters, are invited. Participants usually bring a sack lunch and begin arriving at the museum in Union at

Congratulations Jr. High 1 Volleyball Team
We knew you could do itl Yes, it happened! On April SOth, 1988, the Huntley Jr. High girls (6th grade and 7th/8th grade) won the 1988 Tri-County Volleyball Conference Tournament championship titles.
The day was a long one, filled with mixed emotions - of which, tension was high on the list. But no matter how tense things got or how tough the competition was, our girls handled it just fine.
Everyone wishes to extend congratulations and a special thank-you to Mr. Awrey and Miss Marsh, who coached these girls onto victory!
GREAT JOB, GIRLS - WE'RE PROUD OF YOU ALL!

Cub Scouts Visit Outlook Envelope
By: Jeffrey Essig
On Wednesday, April 27, Den 3 visited the Outlook Envelope Co. in Huntley. We got a tour of the plant area and the offices.
In the plant we saw lots of big machines. We saw machines that cut and print envelopes. They make many different kinds of envelopes. They are all sizes and colors and some have windows in them. Some machines can make about 1,000 envelope a minute, and others make about 350 envelopes a minute. The older machines take 3 or 4 hours to set up, but the new ones take 8 hours to set up.
We watched a man named George cut envelopes. He put a very sharp steel die on top of a stack of paper. He pushed it into a machine that pushed the die into the paper and cut many envelopes to just the right size. It was fun to watch.
In the offices, we saw lots of computers. We got lots of envelope samples. Thank you for an interesting time.
