WILMETTE, IL A local 5th grader launched a campaign to help Wilmette restaurants survive the coronavirus pandemic through a pledge to order out at least once a week.
Gabby White, 11, launched the Wilmette Orders Out campaign earlier this month with the aim of assisting local eateries to survive the winter with delivery and takeout orders. White has produced posters that say, Take the Pledge: Order Takeout Every Week, and hung them at more than a half-dozen local restaurants.
Indoor dining has been forbidden in Wilmette since Oct. 28, and Gov. J.B. Pritzker has indicated the ban is unlikely to be lifted before January, even if COVID-19 rates decline.

because we re two of a kind all right, teaching fifth grade at one middle school outside chicago is not for the fainthearted. just keeping the kids straight is a chore. uh-huh. that s because a full 10% of the class is made up of twins. that could set a brand new world record. here is abc s dan harris with more. reporter: they re are the beckers, the thomases, the pigettes, the ramsies, the hamburgs, the merckes, 24 sets of twins all in the fifth grade in the highcrest middle school in wilmette, illinois. hello, world news as you may have noticed most twins are fraternal. there are two sets of identical twins. the vivians and the owatramanis. but the story starts with ryan and luke novacell thumbing through the guinness book of
