Sorry for the delay...meetings and things! 
We'll check for more on the rest of the 90's, but here's a list of AH events that the Daily Herald showed specifically for 1990:
1. The Junior Olympics Swim Meet was held at Recreation Park Pool with over 500 swimmers participating.
2. The Park District renovated the Safety Town course and the tennis courts at Olympic Park.
3. Construction for renovation began at Pioneer Park
4. The Village dedicated Lake Arlington.
5. After four months in Iraq, former hostage Clyde "Jess" Jesse of Buffalo Grove was reunited with his family (December 1, 1990).
6. Construction began on the N.W. Suburban Storm Sewer project.
7. Arlington Heights received $175,000 in grant money for bike trails in the Village.
8. Eight Arlington Heights students became National Merit Scholarship semi-finalists.
9. Prospect High School won the Mid Suburban League Softball Championship.
On a world basis:
Reunification of Germany after a 45-year divide
Hubble telescope was launched
Dances with Wolves won the academy award for best picture.
We'll look for some material from the rest of the '90s, too.
