New downtown Dayton
sidewalks receive heavy
criticism last week
Contractor explains construction. . .
By Glenn Schreiber
There have been a few one word de-
scriptions used to defne the newly constructed
sidewalks in downtown Dayton: dangerous, im-
practical, and ridiculous.
These are the more kind words that
some Dayton residents have used. Other words
have been more harsh.
Trinite Habor, construction supervisor ,
OEL Construction Services, Steamboat Rock,
contractors for the project, has heard all the crit-
icism. She acknowledges the shortcomings of
the project.
I advised people last fall that this
wouldnt be a good idea, she said. But it is
diffcult to explain the problems that would oc-
cur. It was hard for people to visualize what the
sidewalks would look like.
The new sidewalk construction in down-
town Dayton has drawn particular criticism for
its two elevations on a large portion of sidewalk
on the west side of South Main from Skillet to
First Ave. SE.
Three business in this section (above)
on South Main had one-step in front of their
businesses from the sidewalk, she explained.

ing cement for sidewalk construction at South Main and First Ave. SE.

chiefs are shown at the sidewalk construction
site at the South Main and First Ave. inter-
section on Thursday of last week.

The Eagle softball team began their hot
streak at home on Thursday, June 12 against
Eagle Grove where they held on to win a close
game, 6-5. The Eagles jumped on the score-
board early scoring three runs in the frst inning
on two hits and two Eagle Grove errors. They
added one run to their lead in the third inning
and two more in the fourth, which proved to
be two important insurance runs. Eagle Grove
made a run at a comeback in the ffth and sev-
enth innings scoring three runs in the ffth and
two more in the seventh before the Eagles were
able to stop the rally to end the game.
Emma Clausen got the pitching win
for the Eagles going seven innings giving up
no earned runs on only seven hits while strik-
ing out six Eagle Grove batters. Jossie Ferrari
has a great night at the plate going 2 for 3 with
a triple, a double, an RBI, and 2 runs scored.
Emma Graves was 1 for 3 with a double and
two RBIs. The Eagles improved to 4-8 on the
season.
The following night the Eagles made
their way to Laurens to play a Twin Lakes Con-
ference game against Laurens Marathon. The
Eagles played one of the their best all around
games of the season beating the Chargers by a
run rule 13-1 in 5 innings. Every Eagle player
in the batting order had at least one hit in the
win.
Kearsten Hainzinger was 3 for 3 with
two singles, a double, an RBI, and two runs
scored. Josie Breitsprecher was 2 for 3 with a
single, three RBIs, two runs scored, and a dou-
ble that turned into an inside the park homerun
due to errors. Jossie Ferrari was 2 for 4 with a
triple, inside the park homerun, two runs scored,
and three RBIs. Nicole Williams was 2 for 4
with a run scored. Emma Clausen walked twice
and hit a double. Sierra Ivory was 2 for 4 with
a single, double, and two RBIs. Tori Cramp-
ton was 3 for 4 with two singles, a double, an
RBI, and three runs scored. Vanessa Scot was
1 for 2 with a sacrifce and Emma Graves was
1 for 3 with a single, two runs scored, and she
reached on two Charger errors. It was an all
around great night at the plate for the Eagles.
The Eagles brought their hot bats again
on Saturday as they hosted their annual SWG
tournament in Harcourt. It was a slugfest in
Harcourt Saturday as there were 32 combined
runs scored in the frst game and 31 combined
runs in the second game of the tournament. The
Eagles took on Coon Rapids Bayard in the frst
game of the day in what proved to be an offen-
sive shootout. The Eagles took control early
scoring their frst fve batters who came to the
plate on four straight hits and a walk.
The Eagles kept adding to their lead
each inning putting up two more runs in the
second, four more in the third, and one more in
the fourth inning. Again in the ffth inning, the
Eagles added four runs and put the game away
by the ten run rule in the sixth inning by adding
the fnal fve runs. Coon Rapids Bayard made a
run during the middle innings scoring four runs
in both the third and fourth innings, but they
never could take the lead away from the Eagles
who kept pushing runs across the plate. The f-
nal score was 21-11 in favor of the Eagles.
Emma Clausen got the pitching win
giving up just four earned runs while striking
out fve batters. Josie Breitsprecher was 3 for
4 with two walks, two RBIs, and three runs
scored. Jossie Ferrari was 4 for 5 with a triple,
three singles, two RBIs, and four runs scored.
Tori Crampton was 3 for 4 with a double, two
singles, two RBIs, and two runs scored. Emma
Clausen walked four times in the game and
scored four runs.
In the last game of the day, the Eagles
took on Glidden-Ralston. The Eagles put the
pressure on from the start scoring two runs in
the frst inning. They then put together a huge
rally scoring two runs in the third and seven in
the fourth to take command of the game. They
added put the game away scoring four more
runs in the ffth inning to win by the ten run rule
15-4. Emma Clausen got the pitching win giv-
ing up just two earned runs in the game.
Jossie Ferrari was 3 for 3 with a double,
two singles, two RBIs, and four runs scored.
Emma Graves was 2 for 4 with three RBIs. Si-
erra Ivory was 2 for 3 with two RBIs, and Josie
Breitsprecher was 2 for 3 with three RBIs and
a sacrifce. The Eagles are now 7-8 on the sea-
son.

These businesses wanted a sidewalk
which would be fush with their entrance. One
business in particular was emphatic on this
point, she said.
At the meeting last fall it was decided to
accommodate this request. The consequences
were explained she said, but Habor also said
that people just didnt realize what would really
materialize.
When we raised the sidewalk level to
be fush with these three entrances it created the
problem of constructing two separate sidewalk
levels,she said.
The sidewalks were raised several inches. By
code there can only be a two percent grade, Ha-
bor affrmed.
A second level of sidewalk, with about
a four inch drop (which varies along this route)
had to be constructed since the sidewalk also
had to be fush with the curb.
This extra step is quite different from
sidewalks in other communities, although Ha-
bor said there are other cities which have done
similar construction patterns for downtown
sidewalks.
The two level sidewalks could pose
problems for some people walking downtown.
One downtown business owner, Kevin Wick-
wire, was adamant that the construction pattern
created some problems. He was among several
building owners and shop owners who were
displeased about the fnished product.
People dont like what we did, Habor
admitted. But our company had no choice. We
had to comply with the code. The people made
a decision last fall and in order to accommodate
their request we had to construct the sidewalks
a certain way.
On the fringe of the top level of the two-
level sidewalk section there will be a painted
strip to alert pedestrians about the two levels.
There was some discussion about a rail-
ing along the top fringe also. This would be
decorative but more importantly would safe-
guard walkers, if railing is approved.
Some Iowa DOT offcials were in Day-
ton to inspect sidewalk construction progress on
Thursday afternoon.

Several valves and valve components
were donated by the Wolseley Industrial Group
via local company Ferguson Plumb Supply
Company to Iowa Centrals Process Technol-
ogy Program. Randy Howard, Regional Sales
Manager, and Dave Weiss, Ferguson Branch
Manager, were on campus Tuesday, June 10,
to visit with Process Technology Instructor,
Shadd Scharf, about the donation and the Pro-
cess Technology Program.
These valves will provide valuable
hands-on experience for our students as they
will be integrated into the valve dissection cur-
ricula in the Introduction to Process Technol-
ogy program. They will be used in different
ways to illustrate the system valve placement
and set up.
I want to thank Ferguson Plumb Sup-
ply Company for this donation; having actual
valves for the students to work with makes it a
better learning experience, said Shadd Scharf,
Iowa Centrals Process Technology instructor.

Another milestone in my life
Please allow me to deviate a little. I
have been writing school reports and memo-
ries for several weeks. It seems the past month
has been busy for me with two great grand-
daughters high school graduations, that great
reunion, several other things sandwiched in.
Then on the 15th of June twenty-six of my large
family of 50+ assorted family members decided
that since I was having a milestone birthday
the next day there was a need to celebrate.
I had already been remembered with
various greetings by my church family but then
I was told to make my appearance at one of my
favorite neighborhood Italian eateries. I was
escorted there by my oldest daughter where ta-
bles were set up and a cake on the center table.
There were many cards with varied messages
some to make one laugh and remember days
past and some to bring a heart thumping tear.
There were the birthday glasses which
I had to model for each to see and for numer-
ous pictures and the presents. One of the almost
three year olds had to model the glasses too.
Having grandkids around is special but when
the greats come it is great to still be around to
enjoy them too. Am I wrong or have I forgot-
ten just how smart kids are between the ages
of 2 and 9 just before they get a little smart-
alecky? No, not obnoxious but just that step
ahead of the older generation.
We all pigged out on our favorite
Italian foods. They have a great salad. It is
simple with plain lettuce, generous portion of
fresh shredded mozzarella cheese and a favorite
homemade creamy Italian dressing and a jala-
peno pepper. Of course the kids wanted pizza
but others had meatball sandwiches, cavatelli or
other pasta, but to me the piece de resistance is
their guinea grinders loaded with lots of spicy
meat, cheese and sauce all toasty on the chewy
Italian roll with some onions and red peppers
added for good measure. I sure deviated from
the diet that day! Half of the grinder came home
to the freezer.
This was the type of neighborhood place
where you could be seated in a more isolated
area but yet where the other patrons would en-
joy seeing a family having a great time together
and enjoying with you. Some did come to my
table and wish me a happy birthday. Time few
by and it was time to go home, prop our feet up
and read the Sunday paper, go shopping, have
some family fun or take a nap. You can guess
what I did -- the feet up, Sunday paper, nap. But
frst a few last pictures out on the lawn of the
eatery.
As my daughter was taking me back to
get my car at church my cell phone rang but it
was in my purse in the back seat. Just before
we reached the lot Terrys phone rang and it was
handy. My Washington resident son, John, was
calling to wish me a happy birthday. He and his
fanc were visiting his sons family in Idaho so
I got to talk to the whole bunch. I fnally arrived
home to my paper, my lazy boy, a cool drink by
my side and the NAP!
I thought the celebrating was over, that
it was time to settle back down to normalcy,
however when I got to church the next morning
(actually my birthday) there was a present on
my desk and an announcement we would have
cake and coffee a little later. Within the hour I
heard my cell phone ringing and it was one of
my retiree friends from my old work place. She
was going to a granddaughters ball game but
could she come on in and meet me for lunch.
Of course! And we did! Simply at Wendys
where we chose an isolated booth to the back
and gabbed for well over an hour catching up on
one another and our families.
Home! Now the birthday is over. But
there were a couple more cards in the mail box.
The next day there was another on my desk at
the church. Then when I was home preparing
my lunch the phone rang. I was so surprised
I had to ask again if I heard correctly (old ears
you know). It was Kaili a great granddaughter
from Washington calling to wish me a happy
birthday late. She had never called on her own
before. I have never personally met her. She is
13 now and growing up. The reason I had to
ask for sure who it was is that I also have a just
14 year old (little voiced) great granddaughter
named Hailey whom I thought was on her way
to Japan.
It is great having fve children, thirteen
grandchildren and 23 great grandchildren but
it can get confusing at times. I wouldnt trade
for anything. But it wasnt over! Wednesday,
a trip to the mailbox to get my Review, which
hadnt arrived yet, but I found a large envelope
from Bruce Hunter, an Iowa State Representa-
tive (never heard of him). The envelope advised
not to bend. On opening it I pulled out a certif-
cate a certifcate of recognition from the State
of Iowa for having reached this milestone in
my life. Gee Whiz! Tis true. You cant keep
anything secret anymore, especially from the
government and your age!!!
When asked what Id like for my birth-
day I replied, to be able to share another mile-
stone with my family and friends. Hope all my
readers can have as good a birthday as I had.
We are Bursting with
Pride as we help sponsor our
great students at

Former Callender woman
explains family history. . .
To the editor:
Im writing in regards to your March 26
article (Gowrie News) on the slaying of Ever-
ett Warden 70 years ago. Mrs. Ruth Warden (I
didnt know her name) after many years became
my mother-in-law.
Ruth married Axel Freed and was
married a number of years. John Freed, her
brother-in-law, also after many years lost his
wife, so the two married and lived in Dayton.
Charles Freed, my husband, and son of
John, Ruth his Aunt, now became his stepmoth-
er. I knew Ruth as a very kind and friendly lady.
We moved to California in 1953 and my hus-
band worked for Star-Kist for 30 years, retiring
as supervisor of corporate accounts.
He died in 1997 and Max and Elayne
Palmer were in the area and attended his memo-
rial services. I moved to Florida fve years ago
to be closer to my son and family.

Heading toward the peak of Iowas
boating season; boaters and other on the water
recreationists are urged to observe safety frst,
on or near their favorite lake or stream.
Traditionally, the 4th of July weekend
is the busiest period on Iowa waters. Boat-
ing, paddling, fshing and swimming are even
more popular with what are often the warmest
temperatures of the year. Before you set out,
though, help make sure everybody stays safe.
We urge boatersincluding passen-
gersto remain alert to activity around them,
advises Susan Stocker, boating law administra-
tor for the Department of Natural Resources.
Dont overload your craft. The U.S. Coast
Guard, along with manufacturers, determines
Caution advised as peak boating season approches
the capacity of each boat and it is visible on vir-
tually all boats.
Operators can brush up on rules and
regulations, by taking the DNR boating safety
course. Iowa law requires any person 12-17
years old, who will operate a motorboat over
ten horsepower or a personal watercraft, to suc-
cessfully complete the education program. It
is available online at www.iowadnr.gov/Recre-
ation/Boating/BoaterEducation.aspx
Stocker reminds everyone on board that
they need a properly ftted lifejacket. Safety of-
fcials also urge you to WEAR it.
It is similar to seat belts on the road.
You wont have time to grab it and put it on,
when facing an emergency situation, she said.
In Iowa, there are more than 235,000
registered boats. Many of them will be out over
the coming weekends. With everyone aware,
everyone stays safe on the water.
Children have a safe fun time at the
lake on the first day of Summer.

In their frst Twin Lakes Conference
game of the season, the Eagle softball team ran
into the heavy hitting East Sac County Raiders.
The Eagles played their best defensive game of
the season against the Raiders who are current-
ly ranked 8th in Class 3A. The Eagles lost the
hard fought battle 10-3 for their frst conference
loss of the season.
The Eagles jumped on the scoreboard in
the frst inning as Kearsten Hainzinger started
the game off with a base hit. Josie Breitsprecher
then reached on a walk to put runners at frst
and second with no outs. Jossie Ferrari laid
down a beautiful bunt single to load the bases
for Nicole Williams who hit a single to center
that scored Hainzinger and Breitsprecher. The
Raiders slowed the momentum and shut the Ea-
gles down the rest of the inning allowing only
the frst two runners to score.
The Raiders responded in the bottom of
the frst inning scoring one run. Two quick in-
nings led to the bottom of the third inning where
the Raiders really showed their power. The Ea-
gles were able to get the frst two outs of the
inning, but then the Raiders rallied fve straight
hits, including a triple to score six straight runs
and take a decisive 7-2 lead. The Raiders ex-
tended their lead in the fourth inning by add-
ing two more runs. The Eagles would put up
one more run in the top of the ffth innings as
Tori Crampton started the inning with a walk
and moved to third on an error. She scored on a

The Stratford Stride Bluegrass Festival
is coming up on its 30th year next month and
organizers say it will be worth the trip.
Aaron Bradley, who has been in charge
of organizing the festival for six years, said he
estimates there was between 1,000 and 1,500
people in attendance last yearup from when
he took over the job. Each year the festival
draws a crowd from all over the Midwest.
He said bluegrass festivals around the
country play an important role in keeping the
genre alive.
In my eyes we have to maintain these
festivals in order to expose young people, he
said. A lot of the crowd is gray haired I will
admit.
Lori King of Lori King & Junction 63
said bluegrass music flls a gap today for people
who dont care for new country music. Blue-
grass music is traditionally acoustic and features
songs about family and life during a simpler
time, while new country music sounds more
like pop music, she said.
I think bluegrass fts somewhere for
people who are still looking for a more tradi-
tional sounding country, she said.
The festival will go from July 11 through
July 13 in Stratford City Park.
Bands featured in this years festival
include Audie Blaylock & Redline (Friday, 10
p.m.); Lonesome River Band (Saturday, 4:30-
5:30); Bluegrass Martins (Friday/Saturday/
Sunday); Lori King & Junction 63 (Friday/Sat-
urday/Sunday); No Grass Limit (Friday/Satur-
day); Harper Family (Friday/Saturday/Sunday);
and Bull Harman & Bulls Eye (Saturday/Sun-
day).
Admission for the festival is $20 Friday,
Saturday afternoon, and Saturday evening. For
all day on Saturday admission is $25 and on
Sunday admission is free but they are accepting
donations. A pass for the whole weekend costs
$35 and it includes a free slice of pie. Anyone
under the age of 14 is free and weekend passes
are also on sale for $30 dollars online prior to
the festival.
King said they have performed at the
festival for the past six years.
Its just a great event, she said. Its
very well organized and the biggest thing I
think is its a very community oriented festi-
val.
April Carlson, who primarily works to
organize the food for the festival, said volun-
teers help with the cooking and serving of the
food and the festival is heavily sponsored by
community groups. She said it is very impor-
tant to keep the festival strong because it helps
keep the town alive by bringing in people.
So then it also helps with the busi-
nesses in our communities because people will
utilize the grocery store and convenience store
and things like that, she said.
While the music is the main attraction,
other events at the festival will include food all
weekend, a 5K run on Saturday morning at 7:30
a.m., a parade at 10:30 a.m., and a community
church service on Sunday morning at 10:30
a.m.
That makes it unique, Bradley said
Any other festival I go to they dont ever have
a parade.
The event is intended to be family-
friendly and King said the bluegrass commu-
nity is like a family.
Theres something about bluegrass
musicwhen people come togetherthat
bonds them, she said, later adding Bluegrass
people love their fansthey appreciate the val-
ue of relationships with other people.
Stratford Bluegrass Festival

A deadly drug. . .
Heroin has made a comeback--oddly
enough that has happened since we have been
in Afghanistan. Why?
Is our law enforcement that ineffective?
Are our legislators paying more attention to re-
elections, pay raises and lobbyists? Is there no
enforceable plan to stop the terrible destruction
caused by the use of this drug? Where is the
War on Drugs? Do more people of power
need to lose loved ones to this?
Where does heroin come from? How is
it that the media never tells us that 90% or more
of the heroin found on our streets and in the
arms of our dead young people comes from Af-
ghanistan!! The very place where our soldiers
are dying to keep Afghanis free! No wonder
the tribal leaders of Afghanistan want us to stay
there and die there while they continue to proft
from the export of this deadly drug.
To believe the federal government
doesnt know about heroin coming from Af-
ghanistan is ludicrous. Theyve had boots on the
ground and eyes in the sky for over ten years.
This tells me that the American people--soldiers
and civilians--are collateral damage--again--to
a foreign policy gone astray.

Stewart Memorial Community Hospi-
tal (SMCH) welcomed nearly forty people at
the June Lunch Connection event. The pro-
gram featured speakers on A Smooth Transi-
tion: How Our New Transition Coaches Ensure
Quality Care.
Kari Jones, Director of Nursing at
SMCH, addressed the group. She said there were
several reasons why SMCH began the transition
coach program. We wanted to reduce the 30
day readmission rate, which means that patients
are not returning to the hospital for the same
condition within a months time. We wanted to
increase education and communication for the
patient. Another goal was to reduce medication
errors for our patients. Finally, we felt the need
for an increase of follow-up appointments being
made before the patient leaves the hospital.
Zacharina Winker, RN, and Brooke
Minnehan, RN, the new transition coaches at
SMCH explained the duties they have fulflled
on a daily basis since the program began in Oc-
tober 2013. They meet the patient in the ER or
clinic settings, asking questions to get the pa-
tients health history. They explain the medical
providers plan for the patients recovery, work-
ing closely with the provider on updates and
changes to the plan. They educate the patient
about the condition for which the hospitaliza-
tion is taking place, plus any other contributing
factors, in addition to changes in medications.
They work to provide patients with follow-up
appointments to specialists, services, or their
primary medical provider. They also follow up
with the patient after discharge about how the
medications are working, if theres any pain, if
follow-up appointments were kept and if there
are any questions to be answered.
The three nurses agreed that the main
goal of the transition coaches are to get patients
well and help them manage their health and be
able to stay home. Jones explained that the pro-
gram has been successful, Last year, for our 30
day readmission rate we had a high of 13%.
Since we began the program that rate
has been reduced to 3-4%. Medication errors
have also been reduced substantially because
our transition coaches are handling the educa-
tion piece, allowing our foor nurses to concen-
trate on reducing errors. Our patient satisfac-
tion results, based on surveys of our patients,
indicate that our customers are very happy with
our transition care, earning us a consistent 99th
percentile rating in that area.
The Lunch Connection is held four
times at year at Stewart Memorial. The next ses-
sion will be held August 7, 2014. To learn more

nity Hospital has to offer, visit us at www.stew-

Two Injured in Boone
County PWC accident
Two men were injured Saturday evening
when the personal water crafts (PWCs) they
were operating on the Des Moines River hit an
obstruction near the surface of the water.
Injured were Christian Whitney, 42,
of Rippey and Kevin Davis, 42, of Johnston.
Both were transported to Boone County Hospi-
tal with Davis later being transferred to Mercy
Medical Center in Des Moines.
Whitney and Davis were operating sep-
arate PWCs at approximately 7 p.m. when the
collision occurred near U.S. Highway 30 west
of Boone. Both were wearing life jackets which
likely saved their lives after being thrown into
the river following the collision.
A third PWC operator in the group,
Alexander Goodburn, 30, of Ankeny, was not
involved in the collision, but was arrested for
boating while intoxicated and booked into the
Boone County jail.
The Iowa Department of Natural Re-
sources was assisted at the scene by the Boone
County Sheriffs Department and the Boone
Police Department.
The DNR is investigating the incident
including trying to determine what the obstruc-
tion was in the water that caused the collision.

Beauty will energize
our Souls!
In Ecclesiastes 3:11a it tells us - God has made
everything beautiful for its own time.
Our spectacular beauty in nature is almost
gone, between the rain and the wind, the beautiful
color in our trees is almost gone, but wasnt it
wonderful? Living in the Midwest, with plentiful
maple and oak trees, we are privileged to see Gods
magnifcent display of colors in our foliage each
year.
Each one of us is put here on earth to love
and appreciate these gifts God gives us each autumn.
We are to thank God for these and the many other
gifts for none of us knows when this wonderful
experience will end. Maybe this is Gods way of
showing us that we are to make the most of every
single day - to see and appreciate the beauty God
places in our lives.
Of course, the beautiful leaves are not the
only thing for which we should be thankful. Maybe
youre lucky enough to live in a home and once
in a while catch a whiff of freshly baked bread or
cookies while they are baking.
Or maybe, if you are out for a walk, youll
feel the whisper of Gods breath in the gentle breeze.
Possibly youll see a beautiful butterfy gliding
along on the air currents - so fragile, yet so strong
and be reminded of God.
Beauty, especially when it comes from God,
energizes our souls. In our world of busyness we
must learn to take time to feast on the beauty God
has created for us. We can see beauty in things other
than nature too, such as babies learning new things
each day. Their little minds like sponges soaking
up all they can. Its a beautiful thing to see a child
laughing and running after a butterfy or making
snow angels in the snow. Then there is a rainbow
after dark stormy clouds - what a beautiful thing.
All of these things and countless others are gifts
from our loving God.
No matter where we are in this world, when
we look around we can see Gods wonderful work
everywhere. Yes, Gods beautiful creation, and His
great love surrounds us when we take the time to
notice it. So why not stop for a minute today, look
around, enjoying all the beauty God has provided
and then give Him thanks.
Until next time...treat yourself to an ice cream cone
or something else you love today. As we get older,
it is not the things we *did* that we might regret, but
the things we *didnt *do when we had the chance.!
