Mayor: Robert L. Jackstadt This new development will be located by Edwardsville Clerk: Ross Breckenridge High School, off Tiger Drive and Governors’ Parkway. Because of this agreement, TheCENTER will be a Village Trustees: facility that affords Glen Carbon residents the same benefits as those in Edwardsville. It will, in essence, Mary Beth Williams be an extension of our existing park system. Walt Harris Ben Maliszewski This community-centered facility is a recreational complex that will offer our residents Bob Marcus and surrounding communities a year-round option for skating, exercise and more. It Mark Foley offers one of the only 175-meter special surface tracks in the area and will also offer a state-of-the-art ice rink, teen center, and meeting space. TheCENTER is the third and final park project to be completed as part of the “A Better Place to Play” Campaign. The intergovernmental agreement with The City of Edwardsville is a significant com- ponent for the new development, joining forces with other key partnerships that include the Junior Service Club of Edwardsville/Glen Carbon and the Edwardsville Communi- ty Foundation.

    Six Rivers, Five Glaciers, and an Outburst Flood: the Considerable Legacy of the Illinois River

    SIX RIVERS, FIVE GLACIERS, AND AN OUTBURST FLOOD: THE CONSIDERABLE LEGACY OF THE ILLINOIS RIVER Don McKay, Chief Scientist, Illinois State Geological Survey 615 East Peabody Drive, Champaign, Illinois 61820 [email protected] INTRODUCTION The waters of the modern Illinois River flow gently through looping meanders bordered by quiet backwater lakes and drop only a few inches in each river mile. Concealed beneath this gentle river is geologic evidence that the Illinois descended from ancient rivers with surprising and sometimes violent histories. The geologic story of the Illinois River is not only an account of an interesting chapter of Earth history, but it also reveals a rich geologic legacy of valuable and vulnerable resources that should be managed and used wisely. Modern, detailed, geologic field mapping has enabled new insights into the river’s history. Begun in 2000 by the Illinois State Geological Survey (ISGS), geologic mapping in the Middle Illinois River Valley area (Fig 1) was undertaken to aid planning for an expansion of Illinois Highway 29 between Chillicothe and I-180 west of Hennepin. Mapping was focused initially on the western bluff and valley bottom west of the river near the present highway but has since been expanded to more than 275 sq mi in Putnam, Marshall, and Peoria counties. Funding was provided by Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) and by ISGS. Several maps are scheduled to be published (McKay and others 2008a, 2008b, 2008c). Figure 1. Location of recent and ongoing geologic mapping area in the Middle Illinois River Valley region of north-central Illinois (left) and northeastern portion of the Chillicothe 7.5-minute surficial geology map (right) showing areas of river deposits, glacial tills, and bedrock where they occur at land surface.

Podschwit: The Lost World: The Northern Illinois Wilderness The Lost World: The Northern Illinois Wilderness by Harry Podschwit (English 1102) here is little doubt that humans have influenced the composition of native ecosystems since their introduction to Northern Illinois. The introduction of non-native species, devastation of Tnative populations of flora and fauna and the expansion of urban and agricultural centers have all irreversibly contributed to the destruction of the tallgrass grass prairies and other ecological features of Northern Illinois. Hence, the purpose of this paper is to identify these early anthropogenic changes to the ecology of native ecosystems. However, before one can identify the historical changes that have occurred in Northern Illinois ecology, a model of pre-colonial Illinois must be reconstructed. Prior to European habitation of Illinois, one would find that generally about eighty-five percent of DuPage County was tallgrass prairie and the remaining fifteen percent Oak-Maple forest (Thompson 9). One would also find large mammalian carnivores more commonly associated with the Western United States, such as bobcats, foxes, red and timber wolves near the forested belts that ran along streams (Hoffmeister 35, Allen 4-5).
