Nancy Ellison (far right), vice-president of the Board of
the McHenry County Conservation District, prepares to cut
the ribbon at the August 26, 2000 ceremony on restoring
the Nippersink. Shes joined by Don Larson (center),
vice-chair of the McHenry County Board, and Ann Kate, member
of the Board. Ellison recalled growing up in Deerfield and
playing in the creek behind her house looking for crayfish
and tadpoles. "But a housing development and golf course
changed that," she said.
