Leaf Vacuum for Unincorporated Fremont Township

Leaf Vacuum Schedule: Starting the week of 10/19/26

Leaf Collection: Six full weeks from mid-October till the end of November. Groot is asking that you have your leaves out each Monday by 6 am starting October 19th until November 23rd . While they tell us to have the leaves out on Mondays, as the season progresses, they may not be there on Monday due to the volume of leaves they pick up elsewhere! Do not mix limbs, brush, stone, or other debris into the leaf piles. Avoid placing leaf piles near storm drains. Pile leaves away from parked cars or low hanging tree limbs as Leaf piles should be no larger than 5 ft. wide; however, residents must rake and place the bulk leaves within 3 feet of the curb but remaining off the street. Not in ditches.

Kirk Players Present An Old Fashioned Family Murder

The Kirk Players announce the first show of their 61st season, An Old Fashioned Family Murder, directed by Randy Margison...

It's a dark and stormy night at the mansion of elderly Colonel Claythorne, and the pompous murder-mystery author Arthur Whittington is holding court with the Colonel's family: his eldest daughter, Clarice, who is cold and glamorous; Clarice's attractive fiancé, Jasper; Claythorne's youngest daughter, Dotty, who is a big fan of Whittington's; and Mrs. Shirley Peck, an unassuming but keenly observant visiting widow. By the time Mrs. Peck's son, (junior) Detective Paul Peck arrives at the house, there's been a murder, and everyone is a suspect. It soon becomes clear that nothing-and no one-is what it seems. 

Recently introduced, and produced on Broadway, here's what Broadway World had to say about An Old-Fashioned Family Murder:

"Double-Tony-winning playwright Joe DiPietro has cleverly developed a recipe for an uproarious new farce. DiPietro pours every possible Film Noir detective cliche into a mixing bowl. . . , the result is delicious. Voila!. . . An Old-Fashioned Family Murder is a hit."

Performances are on November 7th and 8th and 13th -15th at West Oak Middle School; 26156 N. Acorn Lane; Mundelein, IL. Tickets are available at www.kirplayers.org
