American Kids and Senior Authors Forge Generations Bond
Crete-Monee School District and Eastern Will County Senior Services paired 8 to 13 year olds with senior citizens to co author a 110 page book. American Kids blends poems stories and non fiction with illustrations, born from a 1990s workshop that evolved into intergenerational collaboration. A book signing followed and a district board presentation is planned at Crete Monee High School.

Will County faces sticker shock on juvenile jail plan
Will and Kankakee counties consider a 93,000 square foot juvenile jail with 101 beds at 16.4 million dollars. Will County covers about 14 million, with 4.5 million set aside and 2.6 million from a 1998 levy, while exploring creative financing and potential Joliet and federal funds to close the gap.
