Pet blessingsA cat and a dog exchange pleasantries June 22 during the Hinsdale Humane Society’s sixth annual

Pet and Brick Blessing. About 75 guests and 20 pets attended the event, and 51 new bricks were in-

stalled in the Carla E. Fisher Memorial Garden. The day featured readings from Hinsdale Humane

Society staff and the Rev. Susan Gerow offered individual blessings for attendees pets. After the

service, Gerow said prayers with families as they held hands over their personalized bricks, which

share touching messages of hope and loss that will remain in the garden.

Garfield Crossing developmentmoves toward completion

By ED [email protected]

H I N S D A L E – T h elong-in-gestation GarfieldCrossing project is beginningto take shape in downtownHinsdale, and it could be com-pleted by the end of the year.

“It’s made tremendous prog-ress after such an intense win-ter that really slowed the proj-ect down, probably by a coupleof months,” Hinsdale Econom-ic Development Director TimScott said. “They’re makingup for lost time. They’re in theprocess of laying all the brickand stone right now.”

The roughly 23,000-square-foot development will look likefive distinct masonry build-ings, in keeping with the cur-rent downtown architecture,Scott said.

“It will be compatible andcontextual with the rest of theblock,” he said.

Developers Molto Capitalhave done informal tenantinquires to fill the first floorspaces, which will all be re-tail and the second floor thatis planned to be office space,according to Scott..

The project replaces aone-story building that hadabout half the square footage,

was more narrow but extend-ed deeper into the lot.

“The new building is shal-low but extends all the way tothe corner,” Scott said. “Andthe corner building has a sig-nature tower element thatreally holds or pins down thecorner. Before it was a surfaceparking lot.”

The shallower depth alsomeans the parking to be movedto the back of the structure.

Scott said the expected fallcompletion date is an estimate.

“But that’s fluid simply be-cause they lost time over thewinter,” he said. “Now that it’scoming to life, I think peopleare pleased with the compati-bility with the rest of the streetand the rest of the downtown.It’s not too often that you de-velop half a block of yourdowntown.

“There’s a lot of sensitivi-ty to the (historic district) indowntown Hinsdale. I thinkthis process has producedsomething that citizens cancertainly be proud of.”

The private developmentreceived no incentives from

the city.

D-86 board, teachersmake progress buthave yet to make deal

By ALEX [email protected]

HINSDALE – The HinsdaleHigh School Teachers Associa-tion and the District 86 Boardof Education “made progress”during a four-and-a-half hourmediation session June 26, ac-cording to teachers’ spokesmanMike Palmquist.

But Palmquist added thatthe two sides have yet to reachan agreement and that thereare several issues to hash outin upcoming mediation ses-sions scheduled for Thursday,July 15 and July 24.

“We did make some prog-ress in mediation but there isstill a lot of work to be done,”Palmquist said via email. “Theissues we are still working onare numerous and complex.”

The teachers’ four-year con-tract expired Monday, and themembers of the teachers asso-

ciation overwhelmingly autho-rized a strike vote if both sidescannot come to an agreement.A strike cannot take place untilcertain statutory procedures –such as filing a notice of intentto strike – are fulfilled.

District 86 School BoardPresident Richard Skoda saidthe earliest a strike would oc-cur would be the first day ofschool, which falls the weekof Aug. 18. But Skoda believesa deal will be reached beforethen.

“In my opinion, teachersdon’t want to strike anymorethan the board does,” he said.

Currently, the teachers andthe school board are at oddsover the teachers’ contribu-tions to health benefits andinstructors’ salary increasesbased on the consumer priceindex.

Are you sufering with an

Autoimmune condition?Living with an autoimmune disordercan afect every part of your life. It keepsyou from enjoying the good things inlife… time with your kids, grandkids,activities like goling, biking, yard workand gardening.

Did you know that leaky gut syndrome isa precursor to an autoimmune disease?

Did you know that your gut makes up80% of your immune system?

An autoimmune disorder is when your immunesystem attacks your own body. here is NO CUREfor autoimmune disorders, but you can calm downthe immune response NATURALLY.

My name is Dr. Jefrey E Forzley, with LemontNatural Healthcare. I am a chiropractic physicianand a holistic practitioner. I am passionate abouthelping people with chronic health conditions. Ihave been in practice for 28 years. As a holisticpractitioner I evaluate the whole body andthe many systems of the body, integrate theirrelationships, manage the underlying cause and usenatural methods to manage autoimmune disorders.

Are you sufering with any of theseautoimmune disorders?

• Hashimotos hroiditis • Lupus• Rheumatoid Arthritis • ALS• Graves Disease • Psoriasis• Multiple Sclerosis • Vasculitis• Scleroderma • Celiac Disease• Sjogren’s Syndrome • Crohn’s Disease• Type 1 Diabetes • Addison’s Disease• Myasthenia Gravis • Urticaria (Hives)• Ankylosing Spondylitis • Eczema• Perniscious Anemia • Raynauds

Medications are not alwaysthe long term answer.

Medications can give you temporary relief but theyDO NOT ADDRESS THE UNDERLYING CAUSEof your immune imbalance. All medicationshave side efects. hese side efects can be moredetrimental than the original symptoms sometimes.

Did you know that medications to treatautoimmune conditions can WEAKEN yourimmune system and lead to infections and immunedegenerative conditions including cancer? here is atime to use medications but not before a NATURALway to manage the underlying imbalance.

So how do I help people with autoimmunedisorders? I use a combination of speciicNEUROLOGICAL protocols and NUTRITIONrecommendations… Neuro-Metabolic herapy.Your Brain (nervous System) controls all othersystems of the body. It controls your immunesystem. digestive system, endocrine (hormone)system… so if you have an immune systemimbalance or autoimmune condition, evaluatingand managing the nervous system is required foroptimal improvement.

Your immune system.

here are 2 parts to the front line defense ofyour immune system… TH1 (white blood cells)and TH2 (antibody response). hese 2 partsshould work in balance together. But when youare sufering from an autoimmune disorder, onepart is out of balance (dominant). his leads toan imbalance in TH3 which in turn leads to anautoimmune response.

I can work with your immune system NATURALLYand balance the TH1, TH2, TH3 and TH17. Youcan never be cured of an autoimmune disorder.BUT, you can get symptom relief and calm downthe immune attack on you own body. You must geta detailed immune system evaluation followed byspeciic recommendation based on those tests.

Guess what stimulates TH1?Vitamin C. But ifyou are TH1 dominant, Taking vitamin C willWORSEN your immune response. hat’s rightworsen. We need to identify which part of yourimmune system is dominant in order to calm downthe immune system.

I don’t treat or cure autoimmune disorders.By using speciic neurological and nutritionalprotocols, I help to decrease your body’sinlammation, detoxify your body, balance TH1,TH2, TH3 and TH17 which NATURALLY boostsyour immune system. THAT is how I addressautoimmune disorders.

TestimonialsI was diagnosed with Graves Disease (autoimmune thyroid) threeyears ago. My endocrinologist recommended surgery to removemy thyroid and put me on medication for the rest of my life. Isearched for an alternative treatment to save my thyroid and foundDr. Forzley. hrough comprehensive lab testing he found out whatwas causing my immune system to attack my thyroid. I have beenreceiving treatments and following his recommendations exactlyand my lab numbers are now normal, my endocrinologist is happy,my medication has been reduced in half and I feel better. I highlyrecommend Dr. Forzley and his natural approach.

Samantha R.

I sufered from unbearable itching caused by Hives (chronicautoimmune Urticaria) for over 33 years. Steroid medicationshelped the symptoms temporarily but the side efects were bad.Ater an in-depth blood and metabolic analysis, Dr. Forzley foundthe cause of my problem. Ater 4-5 months of strictly following hisrecommendations, my hives are completely gone and I feel great.

Cheryl P.

If your immune system is not managed properly, your conditioncan worsen, result in a poor quality of life, cause a shortening of thelength of your life and cause other autoimmune disorders.Holisticherapy can manage autoimmune conditions by:1) inding and balancing the underlying cause.2) lowering the self destructive efects of the immune system.3) using natural therapies that work with your body.

On June 24, the board sentout an email outlining a re-cent offer in while all teacherswill receive automatic salaryincreases based on a percent-age of CPI and additional in-creases for merit. The percent-age of the increase depends oncurrent salary, according tothe email.

The board proposed sala-ry increases ranging from 1.7percent for its highest paidteachers to 3.6 percent for itslowest paid teachers, a raiseapproaching CPI (1.7 percent)in salary increases, the emailstated.

But the teachers retorted,exclaiming that the board’s of-fer not only reduced take homepay for a majority of the teach-ers, but also raised health in-surance premiums for familycoverage, according to Palm-quist.

“The teachers have beenforced to take a strike autho-rization vote – something wehaven’t done since the early

1970s,” Palmquist said. “Whatthe board is offering will putDistrict 86 behind every oth-er competitive district within3 years. Its effects will be im-mediate and devastating to thetraditions that District 86 hascome to value.”

The District 86 Board of Edu-cation and the teachers associa-tion commenced formal collec-tive bargaining in March, oneof the earliest starts to negoti-ations in the last two decades.

This year, the school boardelected to get the contract inplace by the start of schooland, in turn, the associationrequested federal mediation.The board agreed, hoping itwould expedite the process, ac-cording to Skoda.

The first mediation ses-sion was held May 27, and theteachers’ association initiateda strike vote two days later, amove the board has repeatedlysaid is “premature and unnec-essary,” as stated in the June24 email.

Mediation sessions arescheduled for Thursday. If nec-essary, additional meetingswill be July 15 and 24.

A friend from Texas once explained that moving slowly wasthe only way to survive the sun: “Hustle too much down in SanAntonio and you’d give yourself heat stroke.”

But with only 100 days of summer in Chicago, we tend topack as much in as fast as we can, knowing that we’ll soonhave months to cool off. TheHinsdale Public Library isno exception. Our summerschedule is jam packed witheverything from sewing les-sons to steel drums – I’m notexaggerating just for the sakeof alliteration, we really are doing both of those things in July.

Some of the most rewarding parts of our summer activi-ties is still the chance to talk to the summer reading programparticipants about their interests, progress and what they arereading. Youth participants receive credit for every minutethey read, earning points towards fun prizes. Adults get to settheir own reading goals and are entered in a drawing for anAmazon Fire TV device. But even the most inveterate book-worm needs to get up and stretch every now and then, and wehave programs that cater to every taste.

Bring a picnic dinner to the library’s back patio from 6p.m. to 8 p.m. July 27 and enjoy the tropical sounds of KentArnsbarger’s steel drum. Or come watch Chef Michael Maddoxprepare decadent French desserts at 7 p.m. July 31.

Children continue to enjoy our popular storytime sessions,“stay and play” and toddler art programs. We also added newevents like “family science Saturday.” Join us from 10 a.m. to 11a.m. Aug. 2 for a sightseeing tour of the cosmos with giant images,fun facts and family activities to inspire aspiring astronomers.

Tech-loving tweens will love our “fab lab” programs. Signup for a slot in our July 29 class for your chance to create andprint something truly unique on the library’s 3D printer.

Want something more low tech? How about sew tech? Yes,we’ve got sewing machines, and we’re not afraid to use them.

• July 24: quick sewing projects for busy adults• July 15: Sew what? Tote bags for grades six and up• Aug. 12: Sew busy. Learn sewing basics for third through

Frugal Muse owners, Paul and Robyn Garrison, look at one of the thousands of books available at thestore in Darien on June 24. The store sells books, movies, records and CDs.

Thumbs up to Paul and Robyn Garrison, who are the new owners

of Frugal Muse in Darien, 7,000-square-foot store that buys and

sells books, music, movies, video games and other merchandise.

The Frugal Muse manager for 12 years, Paul Garrison said he is

looking forward to being an independent, small business owner

operating a “truly locally owned business.” We always commend

small businesses, and in this case, we applaud his determination

to find new homes from gently used literature and albums, and

his eagerness to maintain a Darien staple storefront.

Thumbs up to the Community Consolidated School District 181

staff who recently helped acquire two library grants for Elm

School and Prospect School. The grants allow the schools to

fore receive the 20 books nominated for the 2015 Bluestem Award.

Prospect School has received the Monarch grant and will get the

20 books nominated for the 2015 Monarch Award.

Lack of funding isn’t theproblem for VA hospitalsIn response toMr. Hughes’ call for

moremoney for the VA, I suggesthe get his facts straight. Since 2011,Hines VAHospital in CookCountyspent $1 billion on salaries and $4million on bonuses.With all thattaxpayermoney, veterans still hadtrouble seeing a doctor. Instead ofincreasing the number and qualityof hospital care staff, Obama ad-ministration officials createdmorebureaucracy at taxpayer expense.It’s not [a] question ofmoney, buta systemic leadership problem.Instead of constantly throwingmoney the government doesn’thave at a problem, let’s hold peopleaccountable. Ohwait, that doesn’thappenwhen you’re a public sectoremployee.

Elmhurst dispensariesshould be in plain siteDear DPZ, by allmeans, hide

the dispensaries in the industrialdistrict. Away from the eyes ofcitizens and possibly the policewhowill eventually find themwhen robberies are reported. Thesedispensaries need to be out in theopen and inwell-used areas suchas City Centre or Spring Road.May-be itwould be better if pharmacieswere used for this purpose, butdon’t hide them in the I-District.Listen to Scott Levin. He appears tohave his head on straight.

Thanks, Lee, for helpingfish out keys from sewerLast month inMay, I dropped

my keys in the parking lot downamanhole cover sewer drain.Luckily, it wasn’t in order and Leestopped to helpme.When I wentin to seemy doctor, he went to

the hardware store and got wireand amagnet. When that didn’twork, he and I used a paper clip tomake a hook.Wewere able to fishoutmy rental car keys from that.So, I just wanted to thank Lee forhis help and remind people to becareful when they’re carrying theirkeys in their hand.

A theory aboutLois Lerner’s computerLois Lerner’s computer crashed

Awarning againsttextingwhile drivingI’m a senior that bicycles every

day. And skateboarders, pedes-trians, other bicyclists and peopledriving their cars –most of youreally don’t obey the rules ofthe road, are in such a hurry, it’samazing. But the youngwomenandmenwho constantly text anduse their cellphones – I have hadmany, many near misses withyou this summer. And I guaranteeyou, when one of you hits me,the lawsuit is going to be huge.So parents, please talk to yourchildren, because it’s incessant.Half of the kids under 25, they’retexting at the school zone. So,they hit me andmy bike. So, letthem know, because if you hit me,it’s going to be a huge lawsuit.

Your texts canwaitIf youwere driving down the

street and someone in the carnext to youwas brandishing aweapon, say a gun, youwould bedisturbed, frightened and certainlyoffended. After all, the gun couldgo off, and you could crash andbe killed. Yet when you use your

precious phone to text while driv-ing you are equally brandishing aweapon that has been known tokill. Why is it okay to brandish onedeadly weapon and not another?Why are you sowilling to put thelives of your passengers, friendsand family, not tomention thelives of others on the road in dan-ger so often? Get a grip people;your texts canwait.

Snoop at the coop?Come to think of it, the possi-

ble teardown and rebuild of theEdward House parcel onMaple inDowners Grove could accommo-date a state-of-the-art backyardchicken coopwith year-round

climate control and a hen fromeach of four different breeds ofchickens. It’s only a house or twoaway from the historical soci-ety, so perhaps a deal could bereached to include it on the dailytours they have there. I can see itnow – tour the historical BlodgettHouse and snoop at the coop.

Police should crack downon beggars in DGIt’s time for the Downers Grove

police to crack down on the bumshanging around theMain Streetrailroad station. They are hasslingworking people. Convict them ofvagrancy and disturbing the peaceandmake them do community

service. If forced towork, theywould leave in a heartbeat.

Concern about newLa Grange apartmentsI find it interesting how the

village of La Grange trustees feelthere’d be toomuch extra trafficvolume at East Avenue and 47th

Street if there was a traffic signalinstalled, and yet they didn’t seemtomind that when they allowedfor the construction of 300apartments to go up at the OgdenAvenue and La Grange Road. Andare those apartments going to beSection 8 housing that will be adrain on the school system, too?Just wondering.

Sheriff and drug treatment centerteam up to teach dangers of overdosing

By NATHAN [email protected]

In July 2013, more than adozen people died from her-oin – the high point in a yearwith a record-breaking 46overdose deaths.

Those numbers spurredlegislation and action fromthe state level down, partic-ularly with regards to edu-cation. Recently, the DuPageCounty Sheriff’s Office andthe Winfield addiction treat-ment facility Stonybrook Cen-ter teamed up to target someof the residents most vulnera-ble to fatal overdoses: inmatesat the DuPage County Jail.

“If someone stays twomonths, gets out, and tries touse the same amount as whenthey were incarcerated, theyare most likely to overdose,”DuPage County Sheriff’sOffice Corrections BureauChief Shawana Davis said.

Davis said the office hasimplemented a new hour-long voluntary class to edu-cate offenders on the dangersof drug use and the risks ofoverdose.

She said the averagelength of stay for inmates atthe county jail is 24 days, andit is there they go throughopiate detox and withdrawal.

Stonybrook Owner andProgram Director CookieWalter said it only takes fourdays without opiates for ad-dicts’ tolerance to recede.When they try to use the sameamount of drugs they did be-fore withdrawal, their bodiescan’t process it, often leadingto overdoses, she said.

Davis said a 2007 studyconducted in Washingtonstate found the risk of deathamong recently released in-mates was 3.5 times higherthan that of other state res-idents and was 12.7 timeshigher within the first twoweeks. During that time, theleading cause of death wasoverdose, the study stated.

That makes educationduring incarceration critical,she said.

Walter said Stonybrooktook up the sheriff’s office’spartnership offer after sever-

al patients from the center’smethadone program spenttime in jail and fatally over-dosed before returning to thefacility.

“So we knew the risk wasvery pronounced and neededto be addressed, so we werehappy to be invited to do theclass,” she said.

Davis said the class in-volves a pre- and post-test onoverdose and drug use andteaches offenders where toget help upon release, as wellas some of the science behindaddiction and overdose.

The class’s goal is to en-courage abstinence, she said

“The best way to avoid anoverdose is not to use,” shesaid. “The main focus is toeducate them to be aware ofoverdosing and how to avoidthem and how to avoid re-lapse situations.”

Stonybrook has led the

class twice a week since May21, Walter said, with eight to10 people attending each ses-sion. As of a few weeks ago,nearly a third of the inmatesin the class had overdosedpreviously, she said.

Walter compared the classto sex education. The focusis on getting them not to useand to enter treatment, butmany times addicts are notready. The hope is to helpthem live long enough to getto that point, she said.

“A mother of a boy whodied said to me ‘As longas they’re breathing andthey’re alive, there’s hope,’”she said. “But when they die,hope dies with them. ... Withalcohol, with heroin, withwhatever, that person has tocome willingly to the tableand say, ‘Now I’m ready fora change.’ Because trying toforce them doesn’t generallywork.”

Walter said she wouldlike to see the class becomemandatory for those in thecriminal justice system fordrug charges, and both Wal-ter and Davis hope to expandthe class to include friendsand families of inmates sothey, too, can understand thesigns and symptoms of addic-

tion and overdose.

“The best way to avoid an overdose is not to use.

The main focus is to educate [DuPage County Jail

inmates] to be aware of overdosing and how to

avoid them and how to avoid relapse situations.”

Shawana DavisDuPage County Sherrif’s Office Corrections Bureau chief

Ever since he was 4 yearsold, Keith Rosche of Wheatonhas loved the smell of wood.

“I grew up on a farm, somy first birdhouse was a funthing,” he said. “I absolutelyfell in love with it.”

Now, he serves as programchairman for the DuPageWoodworkers Club, a region-al group brought together bya shared love of talking shopand working with wood.

The club has more than 175members, with an average of75 attending its monthly meet-ings.

Roche admitted the groupis a little homogeneous – mostare older men, although thereare some exceptions. Their di-versity comes from their vary-ing experience levels, memberRich Rossio said.

“We’re really well-round-ed from beginner to expert,”he said. “We’ve got a couplemembers who have been pub-lished in Fine Woodworking

magazine. We even have some-body who just started, a youngfellow who I think is 13 or 14years old.”

Rossio said attracting notonly more but younger or inex-perienced members is an areaof focus for the club and some-thing they have succeeded induring the past several years.

A little over a decade ago,they met in a classroom at theCollege of DuPage until theyoutgrew the space.

Unlike some other wood-working organizations he hasencountered, the club takespride in creating a friendly en-vironment, Rossio said. Thosewho have been doing it a while

– some their whole lives – em-brace those trying woodwork-ing for the first time.

“We like to see the new,whether it be a kid or a mid-dle-aged person looking formore info,” he said. “We like toshare it with them. And I mightnot have all the information,but when you have 60 people ina room, that answer is there.

“It’s like if you are a golferor anything else – if you havesomebody to show you theright way, it lessens the learn-ing curve.”

At each meeting, the clubhas a “show-and-tell” sectionwhere members display whatthey’ve been working on forthe past month and talk abouthow they did it.

“I can honestly say I’ve nev-er gone to a meeting where Ihaven’t come home with anidea of something new to try,”Rossio said.

They then usually have apresentation about woodwork-ing, often showcasing a cer-tain style or technique.

The club has featured a

wood spoon carver from Mil-waukee and a Forest PreserveDistrict of DuPage County rep-resentative who talked aboutthe woodworking of originalsettlers in the 1850s.

At their past meeting June25, they welcomed RohanWard, who spoke about beingasked by President BarackObama to make a table as a giftfor French President FrancoisHollande.

The club also is active inthe community, creating morethan 4,000 toys over the pasttwo years to donate to localcharities during the holidayseason.

“It’s a good place for some-body who doesn’t do wood-working but wants to learnabout doing more repairsaround the house,” Rossiosaid. “Over the years, I’veseen clubs where they strictlyconsider themselves experts,but there’s nothing I like bet-ter than seeing someone andhelping them get started andseeing them be better than me

after a few years.”

WINFIELD – When friendsrecommended Cooper’s Cor-ner, we decided to pay a visitto the restaurant that openedearlier this year in the spotthat once housed the venera-ble Viking.

We walked in on a Fridaynight to the sound of live mu-sic and were offered a choiceof seating in the expansivelounge near the band or oneof the dining rooms. We optedfor the dining room closest tothe bar for a happy medium.

The space is updated, yetpreserves classic old-schoolsteakhouse charm with largebooths, banquettes, tableswith comfy chairs and lots ofelbow room.

And while the chef putsplenty of emphasis on roastbeef, steak and other redmeat dishes, there’s a healthyaccent on seafood, pastas,freshly prepared crab cakes,sandwiches and other optionsthat make the decision ofwhat to order pleasurablyconflicted.

We opted to try the stuffedsesame portabella appetizer,which complemented themeaty mushroom with goatcheese, caramelized onion,and roasted red pepper thatpopped.

“It’s an interesting blend offlavors and textures,” ravedmy date.

We each chose soup oversalad: a creamy clam chowderand a baked onion. The latterwas good, but a tad salty.

My selection of an entreebecame easy when I spottedthe slow-roasted prime ribfeatured at the top of themenu, and chose the smallestof the three portion choices. Itarrived rare per my request,and was sublimely tender andjuicy. Its side dish was a su-perb mix of sauteed zucchini,broccoli, carrot, squash andonion cooked al dente.

My companion chose oneof the evening’s specials: thebaked berry Florentine stuffedpork loin. The fruit toppingmade it a memorable dish. Amassive portion, we enjoyed itfor lunch the next day.

Among many temptations,I look forward to trying theother dish I’d considered:pork short ribs with barbecuesauce, and a smoky hint ofchipotle peppers.

The restaurant, open forlunch and dinner, featuresdaily early-bird enticements,and highlights salads pre-pared with locally sourcedproduce.

The menu notes that thepastas are finished withspecially aged cheese. Suchattention to detail was evident

in our meal.We did not leave enough

room for one of the homemadedesserts suggested by a friend,whose comment about thegrilled shrimp entree she en-joyed on a previous visit wasan enthusiastic “Yummy.”

We second the sentiment.Cooper’s Corner, with its

large parking lot, is easy tofind on Roosevelt Road on theborder between Winfield and

Wheaton, and well worth atrip for a relaxing experience,deliciously fresh ingredients,friendly service and the addedoption of hitting the dancefloor Fridays and Saturdays.The weekend acts range fromblues and R&B to jazz and RatPack favorites.

The lounge also is hometo a piano bar with a vocalistThursdays, and every otherThursday, Cooper’s Corner

features Jonathan Kamm per-forming closeup magic.

Q&A

Retirement life ‘is perfect’ for former BullBy JASON ROSSI

[email protected]

Michael Jordan and ScottiePippen endure as all-timegreat players for the ChicagoBulls.

However, Toni Kukocearned his own spot in Bulls’lore in 1994 when he hit a buzz-er-beater to defeat the NewYork Knicks in a playoff game.That was near the end of thehis rookie season, after whichhe went on to play in Chicagountil the 1999-2000 season.

Kukoc officially retiredfrom professional basketballin 2006, but he was back on thecourt this past week hostingand coaching a camp at theBulls/Sox Academy in Lisle.He took time from workingwith camp participants tospeak with Suburban Lifesports editor Jason Rossi aboutthe camp, his retirement, hisnative Croatia’s involvementin the World Cup, and hisfamous last-second shot.

Rossi: What has kept you busy in

retirement?

Kukoc: Not much. Play a

little golf and watching bas-ketball. That’s pretty much it.Life is perfect. I became likea golf addict, so as long as theweather is nice, I can go andgolf.

Rossi: What are your thoughts on

the camp?

Kukoc: It’s a fun time forthe kids. We’re trying to workon fundamentals of the gameand teaching them to play theright way and have fun whiledoing it.

Rossi: What’s the biggest fun-

damental you try and get across to

the kids?

Kukoc: There’s a theme [to

the camp] and it’s listening.Just listening to the coach-es and trying to put all thatwe say back onto the court.It’s easy to forget after fiveminutes what the coach saidand just do it the easy way ordo it your own way, but we’retrying to get them to listento the little details we put intheir ears and get them to putit back on the court.

Rossi: What was it like playing

for the Bulls when they were at their

peak?

Kukoc: I don’t want to sayit was easy; it was hard, butat the same time it was a lotof fun just for the fact thatthe expectations were highand the ultimate goal ofwinning a championship wasthe only goal. Everythingelse was a failure. It was ahigh standard, but it wasn’tsomething where the goalwas put so high that it wasn’treachable.

So we came to the first dayof camp with the idea that ifwe played together and putour minds in the same placethat our goal was achievable,

and it was, three times.

Rossi: What do you miss most

about playing?

Kukoc: The competitivenature of it that we all had.In golf, the U.S. Open or theWorld Cup in soccer, you seehow much the guys want it,how much they grind for it,how much the fans are into itand that’s when that compet-itive spirit of mine shows upand boils inside of me again.Then reality hits you, andwhen I try to overdo it, thebody says ‘No, I don’t reallythink so.’ It brings you backto Earth, but that’s the partyou miss the most. The gamesyou won by 20 or 30 you don’tremember, but those last-sec-ond shots or the last-seconddefensive stops, those arethe ones you remember andthe ones people remind youabout.

Rossi: Is that last-second shot

against the Knicks your career high-

light? Or is there something else you

think back on?

Kukoc: I hit more than acouple [shots like that], but

I’d say championships aremore the measurement ofyour success as a basketballplayer. So all the champion-ships, with all the stuff I did inEurope at first and then in theUnited States, are kind of thehighlights.

The individual stuff isalways there, but it doesn’tmean as much if nothinghappens team-wise. The shotsyou hit are great, but cham-pionships are what measuressomebody’s success.

Rossi: Have you been watching

much of the World Cup?

Kukoc: I’ve watched a lot ofit. I watched Croatia, that’smy team. I watched theUnited States because that’smy team, too. Obviously I’mhappy the States advancedand a little disappointed Cro-atia didn’t.

Rossi: Do you ever get together

with your former teammates and

play some basketball?

Kukoc: No, but every oncein a while we play golf and weenjoy the competitive nature

that way.

Toni Kukoc takes a quickbreak from working withyoung basketball playersduring his camp at theBulls/Sox Academy in Lislelast week. The formerChicago Bulls star hasturned into an avid golferin retirement.
