Dear Supporters of FISH Food Pantry:

We would like to assure you that the mission of FISH Food Pantry will continue as a non-for-profit food pantry after the retirements of their two major volunteers, Barb Pierce, food pantry director and Kathleen Moehling, secretary/treasurer. Our community has responded with overwhelming support for feeding those in need. With a reassignment of responsibilities, community volunteers have stepped up to take on the responsibility of providing this invaluable service within our community.

Although the immediate crisis resulting from the retirement of these two wonderful volunteers has been addressed, our long term challenges providing for a sustain-able food distribution program still exists. We hope you will continue to support the food pantry through your generous donation of time and resources.  

Two non-native invasive pests are threatening McHenry Township trees. These insects have contributed together the loss of millions of urban and rural forestland trees, throughout infested areas of the United States.

It’s time to brush up on your Entomology to Save Our Trees. Inside you’ll find photos and information to help you identify  both of these serious tree pests.

Good hygiene can prevent transmission of illnesses – washing your hands, covering your cough and staying home when you’re sick to avoid infecting others. See your doctor if you have a cough, fever (greater than 100 degrees), sore throat, body aches, headache, chills and fatigue.
