Chick-fil-A restaurant planned in Kildeer on Muddy Paws property
Kildeer officials are considering a proposal for a popular chain restaurant to be constructed on the Rand Road site of the former Muddy Paws shelter, where 30 dogs and other animals were found dead from neglect in 2010. Chick-fil-A intends to build on much of a roughly 2-acre site on Rand Road's east side, and company representatives are scheduled to bring the proposal before the advisory Kildeer plan commission Tuesday night.

- The Choral-aires Chorus placed second in the Community Teams category raising funds for breast cancer research last month, missing first place by only $25. The chorus raised $3,985 by the time the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure rolled around, with more donations still coming, surpassing their original goal of $3,000. The Choral-Aires has five current chorus members that either have, or have had, breast cancer. And this year, 2 of the team members discovered that their mothers have breast cancer, so they were walking on race day for their moms. One member of our team, Kara Gray, celebrated her 10 years without breast cancer this year. While not a Chorus member, she is the daughter of long-time member Martha Anderson, who also walked with the team on race day. Lindsey Herza
