Week in Review: Burr Ridge Business Making It Personal, Beauty Queen Fights Blindness

An Illinois State University from Burr Ridge was killed when his pickup collided with a semi early Friday morning.

A business that started by a couple in the basement of a Burr Ridge home has grown into an international company that made $81 million in sales last year.

An idea to help spread the word of businesses in our community through Facebook.

District 86 has been given an award for 2012 National School Library Program of the Year. Find out more about our district's library programs here.

Congratulations to this year's and students who received $2,500 scholarships.

The beauty queen who currently holds the title of Mrs. America and Mrs. World was in Burr Ridge trying to raise awareness about a genetic condition that could rob her and her two children of their sight. The condition affects 1 in 4,000 Americans.
