By Ted Flickinger
Managing Editor
The last issue of the IPR magazine for this year features a wide variety of articles on very timely topics.
Jay Young and Brian Sullivan explain what the Skokie Park District is doing to prevent and confront accidents in their article about a pro-active approach to risk management.
The new Immigration Act and its implications for public employers is outlined by Janet Goldberg, and Jack Claes explains how the Elk Grove Park District has implemented its own cable television station.
The Bensenville Park District's innovative leisure center is previewed by Carol Sente; Vance Barrie sets the stage for the Illinois snow sculpting competition in Rockford, and Pat Sims explores the role of corporate volunteers.
Peter Murphy reviews important votes cast by State lawmakers, and we bid farewell to the 1987 baseball season with a pictorial review of Illinois Park, Recreation and Conservation Days with the White Sox and the Cubs.
Thank you for your continued interest in the magazine, and best wishes for a happy holiday season.
