Supervisors approve plans to begin Public Safety Center construction process


by Bob Beach
During its regular meeting

of Midwest Construction

upcoming construction of the


new public safety center at
the former Makee Manor site.
Hanson presented the Board

Honored with Bernie Heffern Memorial 4-H Family Award ...

Arlyn "Butch" and Lois Fossum of Waterville were honored with the Bernie Heffern
Memorial 4-H Family Award by members of the Bob and Bernie Heffern family before
the 4-H/FFA Livestock Auction Sunday, July 19 at the Allamakee County Fair. The
award was created by the Heffern family in memory of Bernie Heffern, a long-time 4-H
leader and supporter who passed away in 2008. Each year, the Allamakee County
Fair Board selects a family who emulates the Heffern family attitude of helping others,
working well with each other, and going above and beyond for the fair. Participation in
4-H has been a long tradition for the Fossum family, and Butch and Lois have remained
strong supporters of 4-H throughout the careers of their children and grandchildren.

with bids for a topographic


survey and a geotechnical
soil investigation of the building site, as well as an asbestos survey of the old Makee
Manor building. The Board
voted to award the contract
for the site survey to Mohn
Surveying, Inc. for the low
bid price of $1,125, which
was significantly lower than
the bids submitted by Ericson
Land Surveying Inc. ($4,850)
and Fehr Graham Engineering ($4,900).
Hanson said that $7,000
for the survey was included in
the total project cost estimate
and that the savings would be
moved into the projects contingency fund. Hanson added
that Roger Mohn had assured
him that the survey could
be completed for the bid
amount, but based on the disparity in the bid amounts, the
Board agreed with Hansons
recommendation to award
the contract to Ericson Land
Surveying if Mohn could not
complete the survey for the
amount bid.
The Board awarded the
contract for the soil testing
at the building site to Chosen Valley Testing of Mason
City for the low bid price of
$3,200. Also bidding for the

soil survey contract were


Terracon of Cedar Rapids
($5,650) and Team Services
of Des Moines ($5,000).
Again, Hanson said that the
bids were lower than expect-

ed, noting that $6,000 was


included in the overall project
cost estimate of soil testing.
Hawkeye Environmental,
LLC of Solon was awarded
the contract for the asbes-

No-wake zone in effect for


main channel of Mississippi
The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (DNR)
reports that a no-wake zone for all vessels is now in effect
north of the Black Hawk Bridge that crosses the Mississippi
River at Lansing. The no-wake zone is in place for approximately one mile from the bridge extending north along the
main channel of the Mississippi. The no-wake zone has
been created as a safety precaution while the U.S. Army
Corp of Engineers completes dredging work along the main
channel and is expected to be in place for approximately
two weeks.
Weve had some boats go through there at full bore and
that is a very dangerous situation because of the equipment
that is in place for the dredging work, said Burt Walters,
Iowa DNR Conservation Officer. Walters said it is important for boaters to observe the no-wake zone and use extreme
caution as they pass through the area being dredged.

tos survey of the old Makee


Manor building for the low
bid price of $4,935. Impact
7G, Inc. of Johnston, the only
other bidder, submitted a bid
of $6,900.
Hanson said that all three
contracted projects should be
complete within two weeks,
adding that the next step
would be to use the results
from the asbestos survey to
seek bids for the removal of
any asbestos in the Makee
Manor building prior to its
demolition. Bids for the demolition will be sought after
the asbestos removal and bids
for the construction of the
new facility will be sought
this November. Hanson said
the construction itself should
begin sometime next spring.
The Board also agreed to
sign an amended contract
with Midwest Construc-

Allamakee County part of federal disaster


declaration sought by Iowa Governor and
Congressional delegates from June storms
All members of the Iowa
congressional delegation
have added their support
for Iowa Governor Terry
Branstads recent request
for a federal declaration of a
major disaster for the state as
a result of severe weather that
occurred during the period of
June 20-25. A letter of support for the declaration was
signed by Senators Chuck
Grassley and Joni Ernst, and
Representatives Steve King,
Dave Loebsack, Rod Blum
and David Young.
The Governor determined
that this incident is of such
severity and magnitude that
effective response is beyond
the capabilities of the State
and affected local governments to handle effectively and federal assistance is
needed, the members wrote.

Severe weather that produced


damaging winds, tornadoes,
heavy rains, hail and thunderstorms resulting in flooding
impacted 19 counties.
The counties included in the request for
Public Assistance include
Allamakee,
Appanoose,
Butler, Clayton, Dallas,
Davis, Des Moines, Guthrie,
Howard, Jefferson, Lee,
Lucas, Marion, Mitchell,
Monroe, Warren, Wayne,
Winneshiek and Wright.
Governor Branstad had
signed a letter July 22 to
be delivered to President
Barack Obama requesting a Presidential Disaster
Declaration for those 19
Iowa counties. The governor requested funding under
the Federal Emergency
Management
Agencys

Public Assistance Program,


which is used to rebuild
damaged infrastructure that
may include roads, bridges, culverts and other public
facilities, or to cover costs
of emergency work during,
and debris removal after, the
storms.
A joint federal, state and
local preliminary damage
assessment of the 19 counties found the severe weather caused an estimated $5.1
million worth of damage that
could be eligible under the
Public Assistance Program.
Governor Branstad issued
a proclamation of disaster emergency June 30 that
allowed State resources to be
utilized in those counties in
response to damage caused
by those late June severe
storms and flooding.

Veterans Memorial Hospital awaiting Volunteers needed to Download eBooks and


results of annual audit to confirm
make Waukon Corn Days audiobooks for free from
Robey Memorial Library
another positive financial fiscal year
a continued success
by Brianne Eilers
The Veterans Memorial
Hospital (VMH) Board of
Trustees met for its regular
monthly meeting Tuesday,
July 21. VMH Administrator
Mike Myers noted that the
hospital was in the process
of having its audit completed,
so exact financial figures
were not yet available for
the month of June, but he did
say that VMH made a profit
during the month of June.
He estimated that the profit
would fall between $20,000$40,000.
We are figuring we will
end the fiscal year slightly
above where we were last
year, Myers noted. Overall,
it was a pretty strong month."
Myers also noted that in
comparing statistics from
2015 to 2014, deliveries
were down by eight from the
previous year, which Myers
stated was a record year.
Skilled patient days were
up 9.5%, while acute days
were down, which follows
a national trend. Myers
explained that more care
is switching to outpatient,
which leads to the decrease in
the acute area.
Surgeries stayed pretty
much at the same level,
while the lab and x-ray areas
experienced growth, along
with emergency room visits
and cardiac rehab. Myers
noted that since January 1,
2015, with differences in
insurance coverage, there has
been more lab and x-ray work
ordered.
For the month, the

inpatient revenue was under


budget, but the outpatient
revenue was about $400,000
more than we expected,
he said, further noting that
expenses tracked right along
with the revenue. Myers
estimated that the hospital
will probably make around
$500,000 year-to-date for
the fiscal year ending June
2015. After the audit results
are available, a more definite
figure will be available.
Myers did point out that
the hospital continues to
experience a higher number in
days in accounts receivable,
but has put together a plan and
is working to get that number
down. The implementation
of ICD 10, however, will
add to the issue, and that
will require much more
detailed coding and slow the
process down. ICD 10 is a
revision of the International
Statistical Classification of
Diseases and Related Health
Problems (ICD), a medical
classification list by the
World Health Organization.
There was also a quarterly
Critical Access Hospital
meeting, and policies were
reviewed. It was determined
that VMH is in compliance
with all policies. Charity Care
and Bad Debt were below
budget, but Myers noted that
with the Medicaid Expansion,
those figures will go back up
again. The Governor can
expand Medicaid, but the
belief is that they will deny a
lot of claims, and we, by law,
cant deny care or turn people
away, Myers said.
VMH approved a capital

budget of approximately
$330,000. One of the items
to be purchased will be a
four-dimensional ultrasound
system. It will be an
enhancement for the service,
especially OB, Myers said.
The hospital will have
another ALICE training
event, in which staff will
learn how to react in the event
of an active shooter scenario
in the hospital. Myers also
noted that terms for board
members Dennis Lyons,
Kevin Hanson and Matt
Goltz will be expiring, and he
anticipated all three will run
again for re-election.
Myers also gave some
statistics in the number of
MRIs done at the hospital.
He noted that with the
convenience of having the
MRI machine permanently
located at the hospital,
patients dont have to wait
very long when the need for
an MRI is determined. VMH
averages 40 MRIs a month
now, where they used to
only do 27 a month when the
machine was not permanently
located at the hospital.

Kerndt Brothers Bank has
been in operation since 1856
with the opening of a broom
factory and general store in
Lansing. Farmers at that time
knew the Kerndt brothers
would protect their funds, and
the cash they left in the safe
at the back of the store constituted the first deposits in
the Kerndt Brothers Savings
Bank. In 1908, the Kerndt
Brothers private bank became
incorporated as a state bank.
More than a century later, the

ACSD 21st Century Community Connections highlights


Summer Program, welcomes new JH/HS site coordinator
as preparations are made for the upcoming school year

Students encouraged to sign up now for final Summer Session, August 3-14
During the 21st Century Community Connections
Learning Center (CCLC)
Summer
Program,
also
known as 10th Hour in the
Allamakee
Community
School District (ACSD), students in sixth-12th grades
were given the opportunity to
become involved in a variety
of hands-on clubs, including
Gardening, Chess, Construction, Weight Training, Cooking, Euchre, Archery and
Ping Pong.
In the Gardening Club this
past session, students planted, nurtured and harvested
a variety of vegetables. In
addition, they designed and
constructed a walkway in
the garden area, painted the
raised garden beds with original artwork, and utilized the
harvested foods in Cooking
Club recipes. Students also
received an academic boost
using the A+ Learning System, which is a computer program that tailors lessons to
each individual student based
on their strengths and weaknesses.
Students embraced learning opportunities with experiential learning trips. These
trips allowed students exposure and experiences outside
of their immediate community. They traveled to Fort
Crawford and Villa Louis
Museums in Prairie du Chien,
WI, The National Eagle Center in Wabasha, MN, The
Minnesota Marine Art Museum in Winona, MN, The
National Mississippi River
Museum in Dubuque and The
Field Museum and Museum
of Science and Industry in
Chicago, IL.
LOOKING FORWARD
The next Summer Session
for the 10th Hour program
will be starting up August
3 and will run through August 14. For the first week
of the program, all students
are encouraged to attend and
become familiar with their

school year begins.
This next Summer Session will also be utilizing the
21st Century program's outdoor gardens to harvest the
remaining food, experiment
with recipes and plant new
vegetables that can be harvested and used in the fall.
Starting August 11, the group
will be pairing with Iowa
State University Extension
and Outreach to offer students an opportunity to learn
the process for making ice
cream. This Ice Cream Camp
will run until August 13, and
the students who participated
in the Ice Cream Camp will
then travel to WW Homestead Dairy in Waukon and
Weighner Farms August 14 to
learn about the dairy industry
and the process of ice cream
production on a large scale.
Once school starts, the

NICC receives Success


Model Expansion Grant

Northeast
Iowa
Community College (NICC)
has received a Success
Model Expansion Grant to
support a college initiative
that provides individualized
coaching services for students
from recruitment through
job placement in familysustaining careers.
The two-year grant to
NICC, in the amount of
$300,000, was provided
by an anonymous donor.
Stipulations of the grant
require that 80 percent of
the students served by the
additional funding be under
the age of 30 or a parent,
as well as economically
disadvantaged.
The Success Model at
NICC is a five-step process
that
guides
individual
students
through
the
following steps: recruitment
and
intake;
assessment;
advising and career coaching;
education and training; and
job placement or continuing
education.
The grant supports the
Colleges efforts to maximize

partnerships
with
state,
federal and local funding
partners to ensure students
can seamlessly transition

then enter the workforce or
apply credits earned toward
an NICC diploma or degree
program. The Success Model
also provides individualized
career facilitation and success
coaching for students who
begin at the College.
The

WELCOMING A NEW
TEAM MEMBER
The 21st Century Community Connections Learning Center in the Allamakee
Community School District is
excited to have Shala Llewellyn join its Community Connections team as the Junior
and Senior High School
Site Coordinator, replacing
former coordinator Nathan
Todd. She moved to the area a
few months ago and says she

is excited to become involved


in everything it has to offer.
Llewellyn's husband, David, works as a District Sales
Manager for a local corn and
soybean seed company. She
says she loves the tight-knit
community because it reminds her a lot of where she
grew up.
Llewellyn attended Iowa
State University in Ames and
graduated with a Bachelor of
Science degree in Anthropology with minors in Sociology
and Geology. Her goal was
to find a job that enabled her
to become engaged with area
youth. This year she hopes to
get more students involved,
excited and interested about
learning through the 10th
Hour program.
She plans on brainstorming with students, families,
community members, teachers and staff to see what types
of programs would best foster
learning and creativity. She
enjoys seeing the students
in action and watching them
thrive within a safe and nurturing environment.
The best part is that the
students are getting so much

Tent meeting and stream baptism


revisit "old ways" of worship ...

June 7-9, Calvary Baptist Church in Waukon held


a Tent Meeting (pictured above) that has been in the
planning stages for two years as a way to reach out to
the community. Tent meetings, also called camp meetings
in earlier times, were necessary because there was a
circuit-riding preacher for an area who would visit and
everyone would gather at a place to have church. Pastor
Matt Castle of Calvary Baptist Church said, "The old ways
still work even in this modern day when people use newer
methods to reach out, and to me if it worked then, it still
can work today." Furthering its means of reaching out to
the community in more historical ways, Calvary Baptist
Church held a baptism (photo at right) in a stream at the
Waterville Park near Waterville June 28. Submitted photos.
Thursdays: 7 p.m. - Bible
Study, Theocratic Ministry
School and Service Meeting.

Forest Mills and St. Paul's


Churches to end summer
with 'Fun in the Son' series
Forest Mills and St. Paul's
Churches will be featuring
an end-of-the-summer series
"Fun in the Son" (FITS).
Both churches will be having
worshipful fun for seven
weeks during regular worship
times. The series consists of
the following:
August 2: FITS Fair Week
with food on a stick - Ever
have Communion bread on
a stick? It could happen this
Sunday! Therell be balloons
and other fair/carnival fun.
August 9: FITS Come as a
Child - If you like lollipops/
suckers this is the Sunday for
you! Come in your ponytails
or knickers and bring your
teddy bear, favorite stuffed
animal or favorite childhood
toy. Youre also double-dared
to come in your PJs (as long
as that doesnt include your
birthday suit)!
August 16: FITS Worship
out of a hat - God is always
doing the unexpected and so
will we this Sunday as we
pull our order of worship
out of a hat. However, if the
Benediction gets pulled first,
were NOT done.
August 23: FITS skit

Sunday - Be prepared to join


in some theatrical escapades.
August 30: FITS musical
Sunday with reaffirmation of
marriage vows - Pretty much
all aspects of the service will
be sung, so if singing is your
thing, you wont want to miss
this Sunday (if you dont
like singing, just listen to
the music). Also, all couples
in attendance will have an
opportunity to reaffirm their
wedding vows.
September 6: Labor Day
Weekend and last FITS
is Quiz Bowl Sunday with
healing service - Bring your
thinking caps (or dunce cap)

hand).

Heed the Instructions of Your Parents

This might seem to be advice for children, but it really applies to anyone who still has parents who are alive and well enough to give them advice or correction. Parents are naturally, and probably
instinctively, motivated to give their children helpful instructions, advice and corrections about life. They have been around a lot longer than their children and so they ought to have some advice worth
imparting. Parents talking to their children, and the children listening, should start young. There is solid research going back decades demonstrating that parents who talk more to their children have
smarter kids who do better in school and avoid problems in life. So, this advice to heed the instructions of your parents is actually advice to parents to make sure you start engaging your children early on,
and not just with corrections and instructions, but by reading to them and talking with them as much as possible. Parents should be having an ongoing dialogue with their children, and should realize that
what they say, and how they say it matters greatly to the reception of their message. Christopher Simon
Children, obey your parents in everything, for this pleases the Lord. Fathers, do not embitter your children, or they will become discouraged. Colossians 3:20-21

REFLECTIONS
The following excerpts
were published in the Lansing papers 75 and 60 years
ago
75 Years Ago
July 24, 1940
This Week in the
County, State and Nation
La Crosse, Wis., July 22,
(AP) The 240-ton steamboat Bob Thesler, pushing 4
empty barges from Minneapolis to Cincinnati, struck
a stump in the Mississippi
river between Stoddard and
Genoa last night and sank in
six feet of water. Just outside
the 20-foot deep channel, the
3-deck, 135 foot boat was
flooded within 3 inches of
the main deck. It was the first
sinking of a steamboat in this
section in many years.
Baltimore, Md., (AP)
Judge J. Abner Sayler knows
his herbs. Joseph Garcia, a
Puerto Rican, contended that
police seized herbs which
he had used to soak his feet.
This was the judges message to Garcia: Theyre
marijuana; three years in the
penitentiary.
4 Youths To Yellowstone
Four Waukon youths,
namely, Keith Mason, Neal
Wiedeman, Walter Zimmerman and James Baxter Jr.,
departed yesterday in a 1928
model sedan for Yellowstone
National Park in Wyoming
and to Twin Falls, Idaho, for
a visit with Mr. Wiedemans
relatives. The boys will camp
out at night, preparing their
own meals, and are pulling
a trailer behind the car to accommodate their equipment.
The three weeks vacation
will be enjoyed at a cost of
only $75 for all according to
the boys budget as planned
before their departure. The
same group, with the exception of Walter Zimmerman,
went on a similar tour in the
car into Canada last year.
Harpers Ferry
The baseball game here
Sunday between Monona and
the locals was a tight game all
through, Monona winning on
the brakes of the game. The

locals outhit them and had


the edge in fielding. Goltz did
the pitching for Monona and
Red Robinson for Harpers
and both were about evenly
matched. Harpers defeated
Monona five times last year
and Monona has defeated the
locals two times this year.
A real estate deal is in the
making here which will be
completed within a week or
two. This makes the second
home bought here in several months which indicates
that the property is picking
up here as it should. This is
a good place to live where
cost of living is very reasonable and taxes going down.
In 1939 school taxes were
reduced and town taxes were
reduced about 15 percent and
again in 1940 town taxes will
be reduced more than 10 percent over last year. The town
has no debt and the school
but little. Many people think
the small town is doomed but
the saying that a man is not
out until he thinks so and if
the pessimist thinks there is
no chance he is just wrong.
While we dont have official
census figures newspaper reports give Harpers the largest percentage of gain of any
town in the county the past
ten years.

Co. Wednesday night last
when less than $20 in small
change was taken from the
cash drawer. Manager Lee
Echard keeps no money in
the safe but the thieves did
not try to open it. A crow bar,
missing from the company,
was found in the thieves car
and supposedly is the same
one. Entrance was gained by
breaking two doors.
Picked Up at Viroqua
At Prairie du Chien and
at Viroqua they used a crow

the attempted robbery.
They are the same thieves

Disabilities
by Daniel J. Vance, MS, LPCC
Patricia Stroh of New
Bern, North Carolina, has
strong advice for parents
of children with disabilities: You know your child
better than anyone. If you
feel doctors are wrong or
lackadaisical in diagnosing
(your child), go somewhere
else. Demand results.
Her son, Derek, was
born in 1989 in upstate
New York. Within months,
he was having trouble
sucking, sleeping, and was
crying constantly. Doctors
found one, then two hernias, and operated. As he
aged, one physician after
another misdiagnosed Derek, a total of half a dozen
times. His correct diagnosis wasnt discovered until
an autopsy after his death
at 18, which likely could
have been prevented had
any doctor along the way
diagnosed him correctly.
One doctor said early on
nothing was wrong. Another diagnosed Derek at
five with a form of cerebral
palsy, and another with attention deficit hyperactivity
disorder when Derek was
seven. Then came a mild
autism diagnosis at 12 and
later a professional decided
on pervasive developmental delay.
They were all wrong.
Stroh said Derek had
speech, balance, vision,
and cognitive problems
growing up. And socially,
he had difficulties, such
as inappropriate behavior
in class, said 62-year-old
Stroh. He had difficulty
with peers. He didnt understand personal space. He
thought it was hysterical,

for example, to constantly


blow into someones ear.
He hugged people inappropriately and didnt understand the repercussions.
He was not allowed nor did
anyone want him involved
in group sports. His classmates picked on him.
Yet Derek had another
side. He had a good sense
of humor and did well in
computer science class,
Stroh said. He enjoyed skiing, swimming, and chorus. He liked playing the
piano.
Derek passed away at 18
from cardiac arrhythmia after playing on a trampoline.
He had just had an MRI.
Stroh later learned the MRI
confirmed Derek was born
with periventricular leukomalacia, which the National Institutes of Health
defines as the death of the
white matter of the brain
due to softening of the
brain tissue. It likely occurred in Derek before or
just after his birth.
To chronicle her experiences, Stroh wrote the
book, The ABCDEFG
Disorder.
Had the Strohs known
the correct diagnosis earlier, Derek likely would
have adjusted better to his
condition and his parents
would have avoided years
of frustration. They also
could have explained his
condition to Dereks teachers and peers, and received
more emotional support
from them.

by Dick Schilling, Editor Emeritus

... that I am a day late in


my routine this week, and at
my age and state of life, routine is important.
The reason is that I lost
Monday to all intents and
purposes, due to a couple
of unexpected events. Both
turned out well, however.
One was the fact that the
British Open (or as the rest of
the world calls it, The Open)
was delayed a day by bad
weather. When I first turned
on the TV Monday morning, Iowan Zack Johnson was
playing well and was in contention, so I had to continue
watching. Well into the middle of the afternoon, Johnson
won the Claret Jug in the
playoff.
It is Johnsons second major tournament victory. He
won the Masters eight years
earlier at Augusta.
While Iowans celebrated
Monday, the sports reporters elsewhere pouted. They
wanted Jordan Spieth to win,
since it would have been his
third major of the year, and
that would have been a re-

ally big story. ESPN called


Johnsons win anticlimactic. Shortly after the tournament ended, they played a
long tribute to Spieth, even
though he tied for fourth. It
was shades of Tiger Woods,
when then networks always
had many minutes of tape
about him in reserve.
Oddly enough, it was
Woods who Johnson beat for
his Masters win, and the national press didnt like that,
either.
Spieth may be the heir-apparent to Woods, but Monday
should have been Johnsons
day and his only.
The other factor was I was
without a land line telephone
over the weekend, until the
technician came to fix the
problem Monday. He was
amazed to see the box, or
lack of one, where the phone
line enters the front porch. It
was the same old fixture that
was present when we moved
into the house in 1945. There
was a foreman at the newspaper office who was well

acquainted with some of the


old job presses, and when one
would fail, he always said
something like it has worked
for 50 years, I dont know
why it would quit now!
Well over a year ago,
cousins who are my closest
relatives insisted I get a cell
phone for emergency use,
in case I was away from the
land line when something
happened. The late Don Shelton suggested that if that was
all I wanted it for, I should get
a low cost, low use pre-pay
deal. I learned little about the
phone and used it only a couple times, until the land line
quit. Who knew my emergency requiring a cell phone
would be the failure of a land
line?
The learning experience
of introducing myself to my
cell phone may be a welcome
sidebar.
By the way, our telephone
number in the 1940s was
281M. I can remember that,
when there are many later
names and numbers I have
forgotten!

Whats Up at the
FSA Office?

Deadline to terminate farm leases is Sept. 1


submitted by Sara Berges,
Allamakee SWCD
Now is a good time to
think about your farm lease
for next year. According
to Iowa law, if you want to
terminate your rental agreement or make changes in
your current lease terms, you
must properly serve a notice
of termination by September
1. This applies to both cash
and crop-share leases, but not
custom farming contracts.
In 2013, the Iowa Legislature made a change in state
law regarding lease termination. The previous law exempted termination notice
for parcels under 40 acres.
Now, a written notice of ter-

mination is required on all


tracts of rented farmland, regardless of size. Farm leases
automatically continue as
written from year to year unless either party gives a notice of termination. Even an
oral lease is automatically
renewed if it is not properly
terminated.
A form titled Notice of
Termination of Farm Tenancy is available from the Iowa
State University Ag Decision
Maker website as AgDM C219 and can be found online at
www.extension.iastate.edu/
agdm/wholefarm/pdf/c2-19.
pdf.
Oral leases are only valid
for one year at a time in Iowa.
In order to have a longer con-

tract, it must be in writing.


Leases that are more than five
years in length are required
by law to be recorded. The
termination notice must set
the date of termination as
March 1. The lease year runs
from March 1 to the last day
of February of the following
year.
If you plan to change your
lease terms or work with a
new renter, now is a great
time to consider adding conservation provisions to your
farm lease. For more information on how to do this,
contact Sara Berges at the
Allamakee SWCD by calling
563-568-2246 ext. 3, stop by
the office at 635 Ninth Street
NW in Waukon, or email
sara.berges@ia.nacdnet.net.

Farmers encouraged to apply now for


cost-share for cover crops, no-till/
strip-till and nitrication inhibitor
Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey reminds
Iowa farmers that funds are
available to help install practices focused on protecting
water quality. Practices eligible for this funding are cover
crops, no-till or strip till, or
using a nitrification inhibitor
when applying fertilizer.
The cost share rate for
first-time users of cover crops
is $25 per acre; no-till or strip
till are eligible for $10 per
acre; and farmers using a nitrapyrin nitrification inhibitor when applying fall fertilizer can receive $3 per acre.
Farmers are eligible for cost
share on up to 160 acres.
First-time users that apply
by July 24 will be the first applications funded. First-time
users that apply after July 24
will still receive priority consideration, but funds will also
be made available to farmers
that have used cover crops in
the past for cost share assistance at $15 per acre.

We already have $1.6


million in applications from
more than 700 farmers interested in doing more on their
farm to protect water quality. This includes first-time
uses of cover crops as well as
farmers who have tried them
before and are willing to do
even more, Northey said.
Fortunately, as a result of the
significant increase in funding for water quality, we have
additional funds available. I
hope interested farmers will
contact their local Soil and
Water Conservation District
soon to learn more about the
assistance that is available.
Farmers are also encouraged to visit their local Soil
and Water Conservation District office to inquire about
additional opportunities for
cost share funding through
other programs offered at
their local SWCDs.
The cost share assistance

was announced May 12.


Since then, the Governor has
signed into law $9.6 million
to support the Iowa Water
Quality Initiative, which is an
increase of $5.2 million from
the $4.4 million provided last
year. The Iowa Department of
Agriculture and Land Stewardship also received $6.75
million for conservation cost
share, a portion of which can
be used on management practices such as cover crops.
In the last two years this
program has been available,
over 1,400 farmers put in new
nutrient reduction practices
on over 144,000 acres. The
state provided about $3.4
million in cost share funding
to help farmers try a water
quality practice for the
first time and Iowa farmers
provided at least another $3.4
million to support these water
quality practices.

HELI Additional Acres
Iowa has been approved
for an additional allocation of
Highly Erodible Land Initiative (HELI). HELI provides
an excellent opportunity for
producers to enroll their most
highly erodible acres and also
is an avenue for CRP participants to re-enroll expiring
acres if they met the HELI
eligibility requirements. CRP
acres on an expiring general
tree practice are eligible if
they meet the CP3 or CP3A
standards, per the foresters
review or the cover can be
brought up to the standards
according to the forestry plan.
The acres being offered
will need to have a weighted
Erodibility Index (EI) greater
than or equal to 20. Contact
the Allamakee County FSA
Office as soon as possible
if you are interested at 563568-2148. Acre allotments
for Iowa are limited.
Margin Protection Program
July 1, 2015 the Margin
Protection Program (MPP)
sign-up began. As a reminder,
once producers who signed
up for the 2015 MPP program year based on MPP regulations, they are required to
sign up for years 2016-2018.
Each year dairy producers

will received a bump in their


pounds from the previous
year. The coverage election
will need to be completed
each year also. For example:
in 2015 a producer elected
to go $5.00 at 65% for $100
fee and a premium amount.
In 2016 the producer chooses
to go $4.00 @ 90% for $100.
This is one example what
dairy producers can do in the
coming years. If you have any
questions in regards to this
program or if you are running a new dairy, contact the
county office.

Soil health field day to


demonstrate lasting
environmental benefits
Providing food, fuel and fiber for a growing population
without harming resources
for future generations is one
of agricultures greatest challenges. But the nations farmers are a resourceful lot, with
many embracing innovative
technology and practices to
achieve ambitious strides.
The Soil Health Partnership hopes to share ideas fueling this farming evolution
with producers throughout
the Midwest, and will host a
soil health field day in Postville Tuesday, August 4.
Don Elsbernd will host
area growers, soil health experts and neighbors from 10
a.m. 1 p.m. The event takes
place at his farm, 809 Pole
Line Road, Postville. Lunch
will be provided.
The field day will demonstrate how changing certain
practices can create lasting
environmental benefits while
possibly increasing farm productivity and even income.
Featured topics will include:
Cover crop integration
into local cropping systems;

Management strategies to
improve soil health;
Hands-on soil health
demonstrations; and
A farmer panel to discuss
local experiences with cover
crops.
An initiative of the National Corn Growers Association,
the Soil Health Partnership
works closely with diverse
organizations including commodity groups, industry,
foundations, federal agencies, universities and wellknown environmental groups
toward common goals.
We encourage sound
soil practices combined with
scientific quantification of
results from farmers taking
positive actions, said Nick
Goeser, SHP director. Improved crop productivity,
environmental gains and economic growth are all benefits
of progressive soil management strategies.
Please register prior to the
event by emailing SHP Field
Manager Elyssa McFarland,

Erodible Land Conservation


and Wetland Conservation
Certification (AD-1026) on
file.
For farmers to be eligible for premium support on
their federal crop insurance,
a completed and signed AD1026 certification form must
be on file with the FSA. The
Risk Management Agency
(RMA), through the Federal
Crop Insurance Corporation
(FCIC), manages the federal
crop insurance program that
provides the modern farm
safety net for American farmers and ranchers.
Since enactment of the
1985 Farm Bill, eligibility
for most commodity, disaster,
and conservation programs
has been linked to compliance with the highly erodible
land conservation and wetland conservation provisions.
The 2014 Farm Bill continues the requirement that
producers adhere to conservation compliance guidelines to
be eligible for most programs
administered by FSA and
NRCS. This includes most financial assistance such as the
new price and revenue protection programs, the Conservation Reserve Program, the
Livestock Disaster Assistance
programs and Marketing Assistance Loans and most programs implemented by FSA.

It also includes the Environmental Quality Incentives


Program, the Conservation
Stewardship Program, and
other conservation programs
implemented by NRCS.
Many FSA and Natural Resource Conservation (NRCS)
programs already have implemented this requirement and
therefore most producers
should already have an AD1026 from on file for their associated lands.
When a farmer completes
and submits the AD-1026
certification form, FSA and
NRCS staff will review the
associated farm records and
outline any additional actions
that may be required to meet
the required compliance with
the conservation compliance
provisions.
FSA recently released a revised form AD-1026, which
is available at USDA Service
Centers and online at: www.
fsa.usda.gov. USDA will
publish a rule later this year
that will provide details outlining the connection of conservation compliance with
crop insurance premium support. Producers can also contact their local USDA Service
Center for information. A list
of service center locations is
available at www.nrcs.usda.

PROTECTING FARM
WORKERS DURING THE
HOT DAYS OF SUMMER
Farm operators and their
employees can expect to work
in extreme heat and humidity
during summers in Iowa.
While we certainly need to
protect our livestock during
these hot days, it is also a
good time to be conscious of
how to protect ourselves and
our farm workers during these
stressful weather conditions.
Heat can cause illness
and sometimes even death.
Several years ago OSHA
established a Heat Illness
Prevention Campaign to
raise awareness and provide
education and resources
for farm employers and
employees, www.osha.gov/
SLTC/heatillness/index.html.
In our modern farm
operations,
many
farm
employees work in conditions
where shade, ventilation and
perhaps even air conditioning
are
regularly
provided.
Nevertheless, during hot and
humid weather, farm workers
move in and out of conditions
that can cause heat illness
if those conditions are not
monitored. Feeding calves,
moving cows, participating
in hay and silage-chopping
operations
all
require
physical labor where risks of
heat illness exist in the right
conditions.
Its also important to
remember that many farm
employees may lack previous
farm or other outdoor
employment
experience,
so dealing with weatherrelated conditions may be
new to them, not to mention
the
difference
among
individuals who may or may
not be acclimatized to high
heat conditions. Particular
employees - older workers,
those who are overweight or
have heart-related medical
conditions - may have an
even
lower-than-average
sensitivity to heat and require
additional monitoring.
In general, your farm
workers
can
become
overheated in one of two
ways - either the heat from
the environmental conditions
in which they work; or by an
individual generating internal
heat by physical labor.
Less serious forms of heatrelated illness include heat
exhaustion, fainting, heat
cramps and heat rash. These
conditions should be taken
seriously as they can quickly
progress to heat stroke.
Heat stroke can cause death
or permanent disability. Heat
stroke occurs when the body
becomes unable to control its
internal temperature, the body
temperature rises rapidly,
the sweating mechanism

fails, and the body is unable


to cool down - the body
temperature can quickly rise
to 106 degrees or higher. Heat
stroke symptoms include
hot, dry skin or profuse
sweating,
hallucinations,
chills, throbbing headache,
high
body
temperature,
confusion or dizziness and
slurred speech. First aid
should include the following
steps: 1) Call 911; 2) Move
the employee to a cool shaded
area and fan the body; and 3)
Cool the worker by soaking,
spraying,
sponging
or
showering them with water.
Farm
owners
and
supervisors should manage
employee work conditions
where heat stress may occur.
Here are some tips from ISU
Extension to reduce heat
stress.
Acclimatize
newer
employees to hot work/
weather
conditions
by exposing them for
progressively longer periods.
When possible, schedule hot
jobs for the cooler part of the
day - and where preventative
maintenance and repair
jobs may occur in hot areas,
schedules these tasks for
cooler months.
Tasks that require physical
exertion during hot conditions
should either be scheduled
during the cooler part of
the day - or provide more
frequent-than-usual rest and
cool-off periods. Assigning
extra employees to reduce the
work-load may also help.
Provide workers with rest
periods in cool or shaded
areas, and provide cool water
or liquids to employees.
Encourage employees to
consume sufficient liquids
so that they do not become
thirsty. Encourage employees
to wear light, loose-fitting
breathable clothing.
Where enclosed areas are
not air-conditioned, provide
adequate fans and ventilation
to assure air movement.
Monitor workers who may
have additional heat stress
risk factors.
It is important to plan
and provide training and
awareness to farm supervisors
and workers. Plan to review
heat stress risks and heat
illness prevention with your
farm employees before it is
too late.

Waukon softball team battles through 7-19 campaign under new head coach
The Waukon softball team
played to a season record of
7-19 during its 2015 campaign, coming within a handful of runs of playing to an
overall even record for the
season, as half a dozen of the
Indians losses came by three
runs or fewer. More than half
of this seasons losses featured one decisive inning in
which the softball Tribe allowed enough runs to turn an
otherwise competitive contest
into a loss or one by a more
decisive margin, proving the
Indians were competitive
more often than not, no matter who the opponent.
At times during the year
we showed signs of being
a very good softball team,
Waukon softball first-year
head coach Joe ONeill
said. We had a great win at
Charles City early in the year
and played a tough Waverly
team that was a State qualifier to a one-run game at their
place late in the season. We
played very well in the two
Saturday tournaments that
we were in. We just could not
get all of our parts clicking at
the same time for an extended period of time. We need to
have the confidence that we
can play with great teams and
bring that type of softball every night.
That overall season record
included a mark of 2-13 in
Northeast Iowa Conference
play that placed the Indians sixth in the final league
standings. That conference
race typically includes seven
teams, but Oelwein was unable to field a varsity team
this season. The strength of
this years Northeast Iowa
Conference was further evident in the fact that a pair
of NEIC teams qualified for
the State Tournament in their
respective classes, Waverly-Shell Rock making the
Class 4A field and Crestwood
playing its way to a Class 3A

berth.
Coach ONeill shouldered
much of the responsibility
for this seasons end result,
knowing full well that a
change in the helm doesnt
always mean the ship stays
directly on the preferred
course. One challenge was
being the new head coach for
the first year, he said. We
did some things differently
this year than we have done
in the past and I think with
any kind of change it will

take some time to adjust to


the changes.
He also admitted that offensive struggles continued
to plague this seasons squad,
as they were outscored, on
average, by a two-to-one
margin, averaging just over
3.3 runs per game but giving
up 6.8 runs per contest. Further damaging that effort to
keep pace on the scoreboard
was an average of nearly
2.5 runs allowed per game
that were unearned through

defensive miscues that averaged right around three errors


per game for the Indians.
Another challenge was
that we really struggled offensively to score runs,
Coach ONeill said. We
had some girls that hit the
ball well for stretches of the
season, but again we were
not able to maintain any consistency. Hitting was an area
that we will continue to get
better at in the off-season.
Leading this years team
with their veteran experience
were just three seniors - Katie Kerndt, Thea Meyer and
Allie Schwartz, all three of
them being multi-year letterwinners and contributing
in different specialty areas
this season. We lose three
outstanding seniors that were
all multi-year starters in softball, Coach ONeill said.
All three were great leaders
not only on the softball field
but throughout other aspects
of their educational careers.
They put a lot of time in
during the off-season to better themselves. I want to congratulate these three seniors
for all they have accomplished in their high school
careers and thank them for
the many years of softball
they have played.
Meyer earned her fifth
consecutive varsity softball
letter this season, having
been part of the Indians
pitching rotation since her
eight grade year. Thea Meyer was our go-to pitcher all
season long, Coach ONeill
said. She kept us in many
games with her competitive
style of play.
Schwartz is now a fouryear letterwinner in softball
and showed her versatility
by playing both infield and
outfield throughout her career. Allie Schwartz was
our offensive leader the entire season, Coach ONeill
shared. She is the type of

athlete that is going to help


your team in all phases of the
game.
Kerndt has been a twoyear letterwinner in the outfield for the Indians. Katie
Kerndt was a multi-year
starter in left field and started hitting the ball well toward the end of the season,
Coach ONeill relayed.
As ONeill mentioned,
Schwartz was the Indians
offensive leader this season
with team-high plate efforts
of 21 runs scored and 31 hits
for a .383 batting average.
She was also never caught in
her 11 stolen base attempts
this season. Junior Bethany
Stock contributed her own bit
of offensive leadership with
team highs of 15 runs batted
in (RBI) and seven doubles,
as the Indians managed just
under one double per game
and had just one triple and
zero homeruns this season
after returning five different
players with homeruns from

last season.
As ONeill also indicated,
Meyer shouldered a majority of this seasons pitching
duties, recording five of the
Indians seven wins on the
season and throwing just over
111 of the Tribes 166 innings
in the circle while leading the
team with 38 strikeouts. Helping with some of that pitching
burden was the junior tandem
of Leslie Sivesind and Madison Snitker, with Snitker
posting team-leading totals of
a .250 opposing team batting
average and a 3.50 earned run
average (ERA).
Four Indians were named
to this seasons All-Conference team for their efforts on
the diamond, with Schwartz
garnering First Team honors
as an infielder and also earning Academic All-State honors for her combined efforts
on the diamond and in the
classroom. Stock and Snitker
ended up as Second Team selections at catcher and in the

outfield, respectively, with


Meyer being named All-Conference Honorable Mention
for the second consecutive
season as a pitcher.
With just three seniors
leaving this seasons ranks,
the Indians will return a majority of this seasons team
for next year. Between now
and then, however, Coach
ONeill knows that there is an
abundance of work that needs
to be done in order for his
charges to be more competitive in the future.
We need to participate in
other sports throughout the
school year, he said. By
doing this, you continue to
become a better athlete and
maintain that competitive
drive. We also need to continue working on our hitting/
fielding during the winter.
We started a hitting club this
past winter and girls need to
take advantage of this if we
want to continue to improve
our softball program.

2015 Waukon softball team ...

Left to right - Front row: Rylea Nagel, Deana Schlitter, Brooklyn Larson, Allie Schwartz, Thea Meyer, Katie Kerndt, Kaley Benzing,
Kaela Wood. Second row: Sarah Ryan, Regan Wasson, Emma Johnson, Carley Sweeney, Alexz Grampovnik, Rylee Einck, Kylee Hager,
Lauren Elliott, Cassey Urell. Back row: Audry Fahey, Erika Johnson, Emily Hammel, Bethany Stock, Nicole Behrend, Madison Snitker,
Angela Villarreal, Abby Dixon. Not pictured: Leslie Sivesind.
The 2015 Waukon softball team battled through a
7-19 season, with a half dozen of those losses coming
by a margin of just three runs or less. That overall
season record included a 2-13 mark in Northeast Iowa
Conference (NEIC) play to place the Indians sixth
in a league that qualified two teams, Crestwood and
Waverly-Shell Rock, for the State Tournament in their
respective classes. Half of this seasons narrow losses
came by two or fewer runs in NEIC play, including just
a 5-4 loss to nearly undefeated NEIC Champion and
Class 4A 10th-rated Waverly-Shell Rock. The softball
Tribe proved to be competitive in nearly every contest

this season, with a majority of their losses by wider


margin stemming from just one troublesome inning in
otherwise closer ballgames.
A total of just three seniors led this years diamond
squad, all of them being multi-year letterwinners
providing a great deal of leadership and experience
this season. Thea Meyer is now a five-year letterwinner
as a mainstay in the varsity pitching circle since she
was an eighth grader; Allie Schwartz is a four-year
varsity letterwinner who showed her diversity in
playing both infield and outfield positions throughout
her career; and Katie Kerndt is a two-year letterwinner

as an outfielder for the Indians. Their leadership and


dedication to sticking with the program throughout
their high school careers is greatly appreciated and
will be sorely missed.
The Indians had four players earn All-Conference
honors this season. Senior shorstop Allie Schwartz was
named a First Team Infielder, juniors Bethany Stock
and Madison Snitker were selected as Second Team
Catcher and Outfielder, respectively, and senior pitcher
Thea Meyer received All-Conference Honorable
Mention, marking the second consecutive season she
has earned All-Conference honors.

In October, 2014, Veterans Memorial Hospital began


a partnership with Whitney
Sleep Diagnostics and Consultants to provide comprehensive sleep medicine
services. Patients can now
receive diagnosis and treatment for Sleep Apnea, Insomnia, Restless Legs Syndrome,
Narcolepsy or any of the 84
known sleep disorders.
People who snore excessively or stop breathing during sleep may have sleep apnea. It is estimated that up to
18 million American adults
have sleep apnea. People who
have trouble falling asleep,
staying asleep or not waking
up refreshed may suffer from
a treatable sleep disorder.
We have offered sleep
studies at Veterans for many
years, but our new partnership
with Whitney Sleep allows
patients to receive follow up
from a Board Certified Sleep
Specialist as well as on-site
CPAP assistance, said Mike
Myers, CEO of Veterans Memorial Hospital. The patients I have talked with are
very impressed with the level
of care they have received and
most are experiencing positive outcomes and better sleep
as a result.
Most insurance plans provide some level of coverage
for sleep studies because, left
untreated, sleep apnea can increase a persons risk of heart
attack, stroke, high blood
pressure, irregular heartbeat,
depression, diabetes, and
work or traffic-related accidents due to daytime fatigue.
Dr. Courtney Whitney,
who oversees all aspects of
the sleep program at Veterans
Memorial Hospital, became
a Board Certified Sleep Specialist in 2005. In 2008, he
created Whitney Sleep Diagnostics specifically to provide
comprehensive sleep medicine as an outreach service.
His decision to partner with
Critical Access and community hospitals provides people
living in less populated areas access to the benefits of
a free-standing sleep center
typically only found in larger
cities.
Sleep issues have such an
impact on overall health. This

AUGUST SENIOR CITIZENS MENU

partnership demonstrates the


commitment Veterans Memorial Hospital has to the communities it serves, Dr. Whitney said.
Those who would answer
yes to two or more of these
questions may consider talking with a health care provider about a referral for a sleep
study:
Do you snore?
Are you excessively tired
during the day?
Have you been told you
stop breathing while you
sleep?
Do you have a history
of hypertension (High Blood
Pressure)?
Is your neck size greater
than 17 inches (male) or 16
inches (female)?
Do you wake up to use
the bathroom more than twice
a night?
Have you ever fallen
asleep while driving?
For more information,
contact a local health care
provider or call the Respiratory Therapy Department at
Veterans Memorial Hospital
at 563-568-3411.

day, August 15th, in conjunction with the Waukon Corn


Days celebration. The event
welcomes walkers and runners of all ages. It will begin
and end at Veterans Memorial Hospital in Waukon at 8
a.m. with registration beginning at 7 a.m.
The event will be broken
down into two categories, a
run and a walk. The distance
of both events is five kilometers (3.1 miles) and will begin just outside the southeast
entrance to the hospital.
All those registering for
the 5K run will be divided
into male/female divisions
and categorized by their
age into one of the following groups: 17 and under,
18 to 25, 26 to 40, 41 to 50,
and over 50. Medals will be
awarded to the top place male
and female runners in each
age category and trophies
will be awarded for the best
overall time in the mens and
womens running divisions.
The entry fee for the 5K
run is $12 for all runners.
This price will be in effect
until the day of the race. At
that time, the entry fee will
increase to $15 per person for
the 5K Run.
The 5K Walk is not considered a race and therefore
no prizes will be awarded.
However, T-shirts will be

given to the first 125 people


who register for the Veterans
Memorial Hospital 5K Cardiac Classic Run/Walk.
The entry fee for the 5K
Walk is $10 per person. Any
children under the age of
eight are welcome to walk
with their parent(s) at no
charge.
Proceeds from this event
will be used to purchase a
new blanket warmer for use
during CT testing in the Radiology Department.
Light refreshments will be
served following the race for
all those participating. The
race and awards ceremony
will be completed in plenty
of time for participants to enjoy the Corn Days breakfast
being served downtown that
morning.

Registration forms for the


Veterans Memorial Hospital 5K Cardiac Classic Run/
Walk are available at the
Waukon Chamber of Commerce or at the main entrance
of Veterans Memorial Hospital. Registration forms can

Waukon child donates books to VMH ...

Veterans Memorial Hospital recently received a generous donation of childrens

to the hospital for children of any age to enjoy. Jackson is pictured here with many of
the books his friends so generously gave him in honor of his seventh birthday. These
books have been scattered around into every department of the hospital by the housekeeping staff to ensure each waiting room has a few new books for the young patients
to enjoy while visiting the hospital. Submitted photo.

Bus Route times may have changed. Please check with the transportation department. The bus
driver will have the tentative time schedule, or information will be available from
Randy Nordheim, Director of Transportation, at 568-4589.
Information regarding school dismissals, closings, or late starts listen to the following radio
stations: KNEI-Waukon; KDEC-Decorah; KQYB-Spring Grove; KCTN-Elkader; WPRE-Prairie du Chien;
Z-93-LaCrosse; KVIK-Decorah; KWWL Ch 7- Waterloo; KCRG Ch 9 - Cedar Rapids;
KGAN Ch 2 - Cedar Rapids or WKBT Ch 8 - LaCrosse.
Perimeter busing of Waukon Students will again be for Pre-K through Grade 3.
The tentative pick up time will be 8:00 a.m.
The Five designated pick up points are:
1. Parkview Trailer Courts (bus enters of William Rd. and departs on Jean Rd.)
2. Hahns Addition - Fifth Avenue and Seventh Street S.W.
3. Second Street and First Avenue N.E.
4. Sweeney Park, 4th Street N.W.
5. Corner of 4th Street S.E. and 3rd Avenue S.E. (East of Golf Course)
The students at the pick up points will be transported by regular route buses going by
the locations. A specific attempt has been made to stay away from designation pick up boundary
lines. However, should the number of Pre-K-3 students at the pick up points exceed the bus
capacities, boundary lines will be established. Pre-K-2 students choosing to do so may use a
shuttle bus between East & West Elementary Schools. Children attending St. Patricks school will
ride buses as in the past, and will start school at the same time as the public school.

EMERGENCY ROUTES

During the 2015-2016 school year the Allamakee Community School District will be operating on
emergency routes when the weather is such that we cannot travel on the rural roads but at the
same time feel that we will not be jeopardizing the students.
The emergency stops have been established on hard surface roads only.
With everyones help and cooperation we will be able to operate these special routes.
THIS SCHOOL DISTRICT IS AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER

Supervisors hear update from Planning


and Zoning Commission in regard to frac
sand mining regulations and ordinances
by Bob Beach

During
the
regular
meeting of the Allamakee
County Board of Supervisors
Monday,
August
26,
Allamakee County Planning
and Zoning Administrator
Tom Blake updated the
Board on the Planning
and Zoning Commission's
progress with developing
appropriate ordinances and
regulations for frac sand
mining operations. Blake
said that the Commission has
scheduled six public forums
(see schedule in shaded box
below), one of which has
already been held, to receive
public input on the various
aspects of the issue, such
as air quality/quantity, road
wear, dust, economic impact,
etc.
Blake said that the
Commission
is
also
examining ordinances from
other jurisdictions and is
compiling information in
order to draft recommended
ordinances and possibly an
addendum to the County
Comprehensive Plan. The
Commission's goal, he said,
is to draft regulations that are
not "overly burdensome" but
will protect the public. He
added that the Commission
is on track to complete its
work on the issue within
the 18-month moratorium
period, but that extending
the moratorium remains an
option if the process can't be
completed within that time.
The Board then turned its
attention to Makee Manor,
having learned last week
that the renovations to the
facility for use as a jail or
for another purpose for
which it was not designed
would
be
prohibitively
expensive. Chairman Larry
Schellhammer said that
the cost of maintaining the
facility as it sits empty would

News
Briefs
Vets Employment
Specialist to be in
local area Sept. 6

amount to approximately
$40,000 per year. He said
that the Board welcomes
public input with regard to
the future use of the building,
adding that the Board "would
love to see it reopened and
employ people." After some
discussion, the Board voted
to direct Allamakee County
Attorney Jill Kistler to start
the process to put the building
up for sale.
The Board met with
Allamakee County Engineer
Brian Ridenour, who reported
that he had spoken with the
County Attorney about how
to resolve last week's bidding
tie between Fauser Energy
Resources and Postville
Farmers Coop to provide
LP gas for several County
departments. He said that
Kistler had advised him that
the Board could resolve the
tie in any way it choses, but
recommended that the Board
follow the Iowa Department of
Transportation policy, which
is to award the contract to the
bidder that was awarded the
contract in the previous year,
which in this case was Fauser.
Chairman
Schellhammer
and Supervisor Sherry Strub
voted to follow Ridenour's
recommendation and award
the contract to Fauser.

Supervisor Dennis Koenig


voted no on that motion,
preferring that the contract be
awarded to Postville Farmers
Coop.
The Board also met
with Allamakee County
Conservationist
LuAnn
Rolling, who presented the
Board with inspection reports
for the English Bench and
Little Paint watersheds that
detailed damages caused by
ooding this spring. Ridenour
said that he had sent the
maintenance agreements for
the watersheds to FEMA
to determine if the cost of
repairs could be covered
under the recent federal
disaster
declaration
for
public infrastructure. The
Board directed Rolling to
look into other possible
funding sources to pay for the
necessary repairs.
In other business, the
Board set Monday, September
9 at 9:15 a.m. as the date and
time for a public hearing on
a request to rezone the Paint
Creek Cabins subdivision
from Agricultural (A1) to
low-density residential (R2).
The Board also approved
the hiring of Jeremy Bjerke
as an assistant to the County
Engineer starting September
3 at a wage of $21 per hour.

Commission hosting
public forums for input on
industrial sand mining
The Allamakee County Planning and Zoning Commission is holding a series of public forums to encourage and
facilitate citizen input regarding industrial sand mining and
its related impacts. The forums will include presentations
and round table discussions intended to generate public input regarding the scheduled topic and the type and manner
of regulations deemed necessary, if any.
The forums will be held in the Farmers and Merchants
Savings Bank Community Room, located at 201 Main
Street in Waukon, from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m. The forum dates
and topics began with an August 26 forum on Water Quality
and Quantity and will further include the following:
September 10 - Economic and Social Impacts
September 17 - Roads and Dust Control
October 8 - Setbacks to surrounding Uses
October 15 - Noise and other Nuisance Conditions.

The Allamakee County Board of Supervisors marked


the completion of the paving of Bear Creek Drive near
Dorchester with a ribbon cutting ceremony Monday,
August 26. Allamakee County Engineer Brian Ridenour
said that the total cost of paving the road from Highway
76 to the Winneshiek County line, 5.732 miles, was
$4,843,139, or $844,930 per mile. Ridenour added that
70% of the project cost was funded with state fuel tax and
vehicle registration funds and 30% by property taxes.
Pictured above, left to right, are Ridenour, Supervisors
Dennis Koenig, Sherry Strub and Larry Schellhammer,

A total of 83 counties inducted honorees into the


2013 Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame
during a ceremony at the 4-H
Exhibits Building at the Iowa
State Fair in Des Moines Sunday, August 18. Among this
year's honorees are Kermit
and Ann Klees for Allamakee
County.
Kermit was a member of
the Jefferson Blacktoppers
4-H Club. While growing
up, he showed sheep at the
county fair. Kermits fondest
memory of the county fair is
that he almost won the Sheep
Showmanship Class.
Ann was not involved with
4-H as a youth, but sees the

importance of the 4-H program. She initially got involved in 4-H to help the
youth with their horses. Ann
has many fond memories of
the youth, teaching them the
horse basics and having fun.
The Kleeses have been

long-time supporters of the


Allamakee County 4-H Program. Their 4-H involvement
has spanned for several years
- from their years as horse
project volunteers, by coordinating horse workouts, and
helping with the county horse

show. They currently share


their love of dairy through
the shared livestock projects.
During the fair, fairgoers can
see Kermit and Ann in the
barns visiting with families
and looking at the livestock.

in various organizations.
Ann served as an Allamakee
County Extension Council
member from 2002-2004.
They were named the Allamakee County Pioneer Dairy

state to recognize and celebrate 4-H volunteers and staff
who have shown outstanding
service and dedication to

Chris Gleason, of ISU Extension and Outreach 4-H Youth
Development.
Counties select inductees

for their exceptional work


in contributing to the lives
of 4-H members and the
overall 4-H program. Many
inductees served as club
leaders, youth mentors, fair
superintendents or fair board
members, Iowa State University Extension county council members, county youth
council members, fair judges,
nancial supporters, chaperones or ISU Extension staff
members. The inductees have
demonstrated
dedication,
encouragement,
commitment and guidance to Iowas
4-Hers through the years.
The 4-H spirit was alive
and robust on Sunday! It was
a great opportunity to hear
stories and their past in the
Iowa 4-H Exhibits Building
at the Iowa State Fair. commented Kris Fish Kuhlmann,
Executive Director of the
Iowa 4-H Foundation.

enforcement) came to see him. Grandparents, aunts, uncles
and cousins were there daily to help us get through this scary
time. Melissa, Corey, Derek and Angela were true angels.
Thanks to Tri-State Ambulance for being there so quickly and
transporting him to the hospital in Waukon. Thanks also to
the Lansing First Responders who helped on the scene. Dr.
Schwartz and the ER team at Veterans Memorial Hospital did
a fantastic job. Thank you to Bill Blagsvedt for mowing our
lawn and to Verland and Ellen Lenth for taking care of our
dogs while we were at the hospital. Thank you to Fareway
and its employees for initiating a fundraiser for Jeremy and
to all of the Fareway customers who donated. It was greatly
appreciated. Jeremy is doing much better.
