Oak Brook , IL 60523
As we embark upon a new year, we would like to recognize and thank our community partners by
reflecting on some of the terrific events and sponsorships that made 2006 a fantastic year to be a
Comcaster.
Over the course of the year, Comcast teamed up with over one hundred local organizations
bringing the necessary funding, volunteers and in-kind donations to help promote their initiatives.
The highlight of our community service activities occurred in October with our company wide day
of volunteerism, Comcast Cares Day. On a beautiful fall morning, we were pleased to partner with,
Seguin Services in Cicero, Trinity Services in Joliet and the City of Elgin's Hawthorne Nature
Center to help clean up, repair and beautify their facilities. Over thirteen-hundred Comcast
employee volunteer hours were spent in one day helping these worthwhile organizations who
provide such meaningful services to these communities.
In addition to our local contributions, The Comcast Foundation awarded multiple grants to
several amazing non-profit organizations in the Western Suburbs. For the first time since
Comcast came to the Chicagoland, The Presidents Grant, the largest individual award given by the
Foundation, was presented to The DuPage Children's Museum for their Kindergarten Math
Initiative. The program, which will extend over three years, will receive $ 105,000 and will reach
over 11,000 children in DuPage County. As part of our commitment to promoting diversity and
literacy, The Foundation also awarded a $25,000 grant to the Maywood Fine Arts Council in
T.?aywaod for thci._ "O�fTII Streatsa,..d On Your Feet" program, a $ 10,000 grant to. the People's
Resource Center in Wheaton for their ESL & computer literacy program, and a $I0,000 grant to
the Western DuPage Special Recreation Association in Carol Stream for their "Best Practices of
Inclusive Services" program. And finally, as a component to our strategy to reward youth
leadership and education, we awarded fifty three high school seniors with a $ I,000 Leaders &
Achievers scholarship to pursue higher education.
Comcast continues to provide complimentary cable and internet to area schools and libraries
through a program developed by the industry, known as, "Cable in the Classroom". This effort is
a favorite among many teachers who use the materials provided by CIC to tie cable programming
from popular networks such as Discovery, A&E Biography and The History Channel into their
daily curriculum.
So as you can see, we were quite busy last year and are excited about increasing our outreach efforts
in 2007. Thank you for allowing us to be a part of your community — we value the relationship
we have with you and your residents
We look forward to working with you this year.
Sincerely,

Memo 11NN//
To: HRC
From: Sue Swithin, Superintendent of Receration
Date: 3-28-07
Cc: file, Dave Mogle, Scott Sleezer
Re: Optimist Club Request
The Optimist Club of Yorkville is requesting the use of the Riverfront Paris on Sept. 29, 2007
for an Octoberfest Event, from 12:00 to 10:00 pm. They would like the City to waive the
rental fee for the park, $100.00 and receive in-kind hours from the Park Dept. and Recreation
Dept..
Staff recommendation is to waive the park rental fee of$100.00 and provide them in-kind
hours. The in-kind hours will be decided and agreed upon by the Park Superintendent at a
later date. The Recreation.Dept. has already assisted with an insignificant amount of in-kind
hours.
Thank you,
Sue

United City of Yorkville
Historical Street Naming Program
Name of nominated individual: Barbra Joan Groesch
Phone number: 920 563-9052
Reason for nomination:
Barbra Joan Groesch moved to the outskirts of Yorkville in 1967 with her three
children and husband Richard. The young family found Yorkville very inviting where
Barb, a florist at trade, believed in the rural city so much that she felt it would be the
perfect setting for her new florist business. The florist was named after her trade
specialty, "The Brides Flower Shop". The business started in the basement at her
residence, but quickly grew out of that cramped quarters. A downtown Yorkville
location was than obtained along with a business partner Donna Diehl, and the business
officially started in 1973 .
During this venture she was a member of the American Business Women' s
Associations, Aurora chapter and always felt that the Yorkville area was large enough to
have their own charter. After talking to several business women of the area a few
organizational meetings were conducted. The Yorkville associations' goal would be to
assist local women to obtain their college degree through scholarship money produced by
their local chapter. A charter newsletter that would encompass the Kendall County area
was composed; the name would be, The POSY (Plano Oswego Sandwich Yorkville)
Patch. This newsletter was imperative to the cohesiveness of the American Business
Women's Association's meetings. In the beginning the POSY Patch was a one woman's
show that consisted of writing, copying, and mailing to all members on a monthly basis.
The meetings were arranged on a monthly foundation that entailed setting a location and
speaker for each. The general meetings would also need to be prepared for by setting an
agenda and completing all executive business. With the help of the Aurora Chapter the
responsibility of these duties fell squarely on the shoulders of the founder, Barb. These
duties motivated her further to make this organization the best it could be which
enthralled her to learn the inter-workings of the local government and businesses alike.
As a woman in business this was a time in society when it was a delicate road to
navigate. Barb's warmth and upbeat personality endeared all to work with her for the
betterment of Yorkville.
Barb worked with ABWA for over 17 years proudly working on the executive
board as president, vice-president, and secretary, and than retired to Wisconsin with her
husband. The American Business Women's Association, LaFox Chapter is still in
existence to this day helping the future generations of women with the rigorous ventures
of starting and thriving in the Kendall County business world.
During Barb's passion of starting the Yorkville chapter of AB WA her
contribution did not end there but more like splintered off into several other undertakings.
Her love of horticulture that carries onto today brought her to a new project. In 1972,
Barb worked with the Yorkville School District 115 in an attempt to bring updated
classes to the students of Yorkville. A new program at the time was a joint venture
through several school districts to create a vocational school. The steering committee
that Barb was part of assisted in creating the Indian Valley Vocational Center (IV VC).
This multi-school district partnership allowed students to learn and take that knowledge
directly to the workplace.
The Illinois Extension Office created a Home Extension Association that Barb
was very committed to. During the years of 1972-1980 she was very resourceful and
helped the association help other people. She taught several classes at the extension
office and was also on the executive board working as their president for several terms.
Barb was also the Yorkville Chamber of Commerce Executive Director for two
years in the 1980's. She worked diligently helping the local businesses through initiating
more business from outside Kendall County for the individual member and worked on
enlarging their membership. This program was the preface of the Economic
Development Commission that she also was a member of. Barb was the first woman to
be a member of this organization.
On a personal level Barb was very active at St. Patrick' s church and worked with
the St. Patrick's Women's Auxiliary. She held several executive board positions
including president, vice president, and secretary during her tenure there. The Christian
organizations mission was to help parish members that extended throughout the entire
community. They were also very dedicated to fundraising in an effort to financially help
the school and church.
I'm writing this on behave of my mother who not only educated her children on
how to be good citizens, but also showed us by example on how to be good citizens. This
type of education has a ripple effect that only magnifies her actions through her
children's deeds, which continues her course of positive moral character, to touch future
generations.
