On October 12,2022 the HOGs were honored with a visit by U.S. Representative Jan Schakowsky (IL-09) who spoke about Congress’s significant efforts to preserve and protect rights to Medicare, Social Security, and healthcare, and also shared her views on the forthcoming midterm elections. Shown here with Rep. Schakowsky are HOG V.P. of Programming Chuck Orloff (left) and HOG Jerry Smoller (right) who arranged to have the congresswoman join us.

The HOGs on June 15th presented a very timely and well attended panel discussion concerning the Bears proposed move to Arlington Heights, including financial and infrastructure issues as well as considerations concerning the impact on the surrounding communities. Shown here (from left to right) are HOGs president Burt Litwin and panelists Bert Rosenberg (HOGs member and former Arlington Heights Village Trustee), Illinois State Representative Jonathon Carroll (57th District), and Elliott Hartstein (HOGs member and former mayor of Buffalo Grove). The panel was conceived and arranged by HOGs member Jerry Becker.

The HOGs were privileged to have Howard Cain, a WWII veteran of the Army Air Corps, as their guest speaker at the group’s December 11, 2019 meeting.
