Teams needed for MS Walk

The MS Walk is a great way for teams and communities to come together for a fun-filled event while making a tremendous difference in the lives of those with multiple sclerosis.  This year, the MS Walk is April 14 at 1:30 p.m. at Kickapoo Creek Park in Lincoln.

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic, often disabling, disease of the central nervous system. The brain and spinal cord are affected. The symptoms of MS vary greatly and may be mild or severe. Some symptoms are numbness in the limbs, paralysis or loss of vision.  Most people with MS are diagnosed between the ages of 20 and 50, but the unpredictable physical and emotional effects can be lifelong.

Dollars raised by the MS Walk support research efforts and local programs.

The event takes place rain or shine.  Lace up your walking shoes, grab your contributions and join us! Contact Nancy Ireland, 732-2339, or e-mail sunglow@abelink.com for details.

Lincoln Area YMCA 2002 summer day camps

YMCA summer day camp is the right choice to make when looking for fun and adventure for kids throughout the summer months. Mom and Dad can simply go to work each day knowing that their children will share hours of fun with their friends in a safe environment. Kids will fill their time at the Y this summer by enjoying lots of field trip fun, including swimming, ice skating, roller skating, hiking in area parks, a try at fishing, climbing on the YMCA low ropes course, archery, and visits to a water park, the Decatur Children’s Museum and the golf range at Lincoln Park District.

Children will enjoy the qualified and fun-loving YMCA staff as they play games and guide the children in various educational activities. Activities planned include singing camp songs, experiencing outdoor activities such as hikes in area parks, learning to tie knots, making special snacks, enjoying visits from guest speakers, playing various sports, and having special contest fun with entertaining "kid" games such as jacks, marbles, yo-yos, hula hoops, hacky sacks, Slinkies, spinning tops and much more. Children will also enjoy group arts and crafts, reading activities, storytelling fun, creative drama activities, skits, and will swim most days that weather permits.

Summer day camp will be offered at the following locations this year:

•  Children entering kindergarten to second grade — YMCA facility and outdoor grounds on Wyatt Avenue

•  Third through sixth grade — Immanuel Lutheran Church outdoor picnic grounds (1409 Pulaski St.)

•  Kindergarten through sixth-grade program for Atlanta — Atlanta Grade School


Children help start YMCA programs for older adults

The children enrolled in the local YMCA before- and after-school programs have been working together with the YMCA staff to help raise funds for programs that will soon be offered to active older adults. These kids simply feel that they have been recipients of fun programs offered by the YMCA for many years, and now they think that it is time for active older adults, such as their grandparents, to have some fun too!

The children and YMCA staff have been donating bags of chocolate chips, baking candies and other baking ingredients to assemble into jars of "cookie mixes." Once the jars are assembled with the ingredients and decorated, they will be sold for $6. The proceeds will be used to put together various programs that active older adults will enjoy.

If you are interested in learning more about this new programming for older adults, please call the Lincoln Area YMCA at 735-3915.

A new century, a new generation
and new recipes

[FEB. 28, 2002]  Just over 10 years ago, in 1991, Judy Awe decided her family needed a way to remember its heritage.

Judy Awe is a member of the Ritchhart family, a family known all over central Illlinois. The Ritchhart family includes two men who fought in the Civil War (one of whom died in that war) and one man who fought in the Spanish-American War.

Judy is the oldest grandchild of Harold Raymond Ritchhart and Wilma Amaryllis Shay, both of whom were born in Logan County. Harold owned Ritchhart’s Grocery for 48 years. Judy has fond memories of working in the store learning to count change. Her grandparents really defined the Ritchhart sense of community awareness. And she wanted to create something in their honor.

So, in 1991, she decided to create the  "Ritchhart Family Cookbook," with the help of her sister, Janice Sielaff, and her mother, Norma Jean Berglin, 

 

 

With an extensive family of eight children and 29 grandchildren, not to mention cousins, the Ritchharts had many, many recipes to share. Some had stories or meanings behind them, some were just family favorites.

The ones collected from "Gran" (Wilma) Ritchhart were the hardest, according to Judy. With other members of the family, they simply had to copy the recipe down onto a form and mail it back. Gran, however, cooked the old-fashioned way — "some flour, a lump of butter, a little bit of baking powder." So Judy and her sister had to measure the ingredients and write them down as she put them in. Her recipe for dumplings turned into "2 C. flour, 2 tsp. baking powder with little salt, 1 heaping T. Crisco."

In addition to recipes, Judy collected stories from her mother and others. These were used as filler material at the bottoms of the pages. A reader can get great enjoyment by just scanning the bottom of each page for anecdotes.

Some have to do with food and recipes:  "How many ways can you cook an egg? Ask the kids at Jellystone Campground."

Some make you almost wish you knew the story behind them:  "Is Judge John’s blood still on the porch at [the house] at 123 [College]?"

And some just make you laugh:  "Dad was a volunteer fireman for several years. One night, the boys pushed the car out of the garage and down the alley without Dad’s permission and went cruising. When they saw the fire they knew Dad would be called, but they had his car, so they went home to pick him up…sleepy eyed, Dad didn’t realize it was his car that was delivering him to his destination – until later."

So they collected all of these recipes from relatives and sent them off to be published.

Since that time, there have been many reprints of the cookbook. More and more members of the Ritchhart family want their family’s recipes, and many members of the community also want to be a part of the history. Eventually, over 4,000 copies of the book were sold.

 

[to top of second column in this article]

The money from the first book was given to Abraham Lincoln Memorial Hospital Auxiliary in Lincoln. It was used to purchase Lifeline units.

But, as with all compilations, many recipes were left out. Some had merely been forgotten or overlooked. Others came along later as the over 30 great-grandchildren began to grow up.

On the 10th anniversary of the first Ritchhart cookbook, Judy decided it was time for a second one. "A new century, a new generation and new recipes!" she proclaimed. And she went back to work.

The Ritchhart family really had grown. It included almost everyone needed for a modern community, from doctors to firemen to a school administrator. Everything but a lawyer, according to Judy.

So her table became covered with new recipes, old recipes, forgotten recipes. She collected new sayings and stories. She arranged and rearranged them all. And finally, at the beginning of September 2001, the book was ready to be sent off.

You can guess what happened next.

She writes in the introduction to this cookbook, "Final touches were being made on Cookbook 2001 – September 11, 2001, when our nation was devastated by terrorists attacking the New York World Trade Center."

But even the terrorists could not hold back the Ritchhart cookbook. Judy called the publishing company and asked if they had a patriotic cookbook theme. The sales representative laughed and told her that one was being prepared as they spoke. The American flag and eagle design was sent to Judy as soon as it was printed. She chose it immediately, and her book was the first one published in that style.

 

 

The back of the book reads, "This cover and divider set was designed to honor the victims of the September 11 tragedies. For every set sold, G&R Publishing has made a donation to the New York Fire Fighters 9-11 Fund."

In addition, Judy will once again donate the proceeds of this book to a charity or need somewhere in this area.

If you would like to purchase one or both of these cookbooks, you can contact Judy Awe at (217) 732-4758 or e-mail her at tjawe@abelink.com.

Books are $10 each plus $4 if you want them shipped to you.
