Our annual picnic was held in September. The rain came and broke up the outdoor party. We moved indoors and enjoyed a delightful potluck dinner. We auctioned a beautiful black seal coat that was donated by Beatrice Anderson. Many items were donated to the Country Store and purchased by friends in attendance.

Sgt. Ralph Connard of the Lake County Sheriff's Department discussed establishing a community neighborhood watch in Millburn. We agreed this would be a good idea. Dawn Revenaugh, Jim Burnett, Milt Anderson and Robert Brooks with Ray Boller as alternate person, volunteered to serve as a neighborhood committee with one person serving as coordinator. The program creates more of a sensitivity of what is going on in the neighborhood with people to report to in the event of unusual happenings. This neighborhood watch committee is a separate entity from the Historic Millburn Community Association..

We discussed at great length our traffic problems but solutions do not seem to be available.

Our Christmas activity this year will be a trip to the Waukegan Historical Home in Bowen Park.
