Welcome to Maywoodl Home of the Proviso East Pirates. Population 26,547 It doesn't consist of the fast moving pace of New York or downtown Chicago, nor does it contain palm trees that can be found on the sandy beaches in Hawaii, but what Maywood does have is an atmosphere that changes like the weather. In fact, it fre- quently appears to change with the seasons, Riding down Madison Avenue, Maywood's Main Street in disguise, in the summer time is like riding in the Rose Bowl Parade, whereas in the winter riding down Madison reminds one of a trip to grandmothers house , says Lisa Courts 0811. UMaywood is a town full of spirit and spunk. The recreational facilities offer innumerable ways for enjoyment. However, l feel the citizens have yet to realize it. In my opinion, Maywoodians should draw closer together instead of pulling apart. Needless to say, this is home , comments Keith Tillman f'8lj. Maywood's recreational facilities and the Little League department give growth and character of mind and well bodies. Such talents of lim Brewer, Theo Shaw, and Glenn Rivers, to name a few, were nurtured through Maywood's baseball programs. Meet The v . .,f, 'N xl ll me A l a ,fe -A gist. - I 'il ,,-,,A...v A , f .

Over the years it has continued to grow in size of teams, however, it has diminished in parent cooperation and participation, commented former graduate of East, Clarence jackson NH! l . National Pride Car Wash is a popular attraction on Madison Avenue. f'65j vice president of Maywood Little League. The Community Center is in many ways similar to Chicago's health clubs. Martial arts lessons, dance classes, sing- ing and theatrical performances are all just a few activities enjoyed by the young and old at the Community Center. The outer beauty of the Com- munity Center seems to flow into the inner souls of the people inside willing to work with each other and make it a lovely place to go. Speaking of beauty, Maywood's new fire department is a beaut. The modern structure clearly demonstrates the town's progressiveness.
