The Standard's upgraded website offers new electronic
edition for the benet of subscribers and advertisers
The Standard Newspaper
recently made some changes
to its website, www.waukon-
standard.com. In making the
site more attractive, some
new features have been add-
ed, including an all-new elec-
tronic edition of the newspa-
per that provides access to all
the same news and advertis-
ing printed each week in a
convenient online format.
"We're excited to be able
to offer a new option for de-
livery of our newspaper," said
Assistant Editor and website
administrator Bob Beach.
"With the new e-edition, read-
ers have the option to view
the pages of our newspaper
exactly as they appear in print
on their computers, tablets
and smartphones. We hope
this option will ease some
of the frustration caused by
slowed delivery of the print
edition due to recent changes
in the U.S. Postal Service."
Beach added that the e-edi-
tion is currently free, but after
an introductory period, sub-
scriptions to the e-edition will
be sold at the local area sub-
scription rate of $41 per year.
Another feature of the new
site is a secure payment pro-
cessor, so readers of both the
print and electronic editions
of the newspaper can pur-
chase subscriptions or renew-
als online using credit cards.
"We hope that our readers
will enjoy the new web site,
but we also hope that adver-
tisers will notice that the new
site offers more opportunities
to reach more people," said
Managing Editor Jeremy Tro-
endle. "The new site offers
more space for our adver-
tisers while still providing
important news online. The
added e-edition of the news-
paper also offers everyone
an opportunity to subscribe
to exactly the same news and
advertising online as The
Standard publishes in its print
edition each week, no matter
where they may be located."
Troendle said one of the
greatest advantages of the
e-edition is that area natives
who live far away, including
overseas, can now have ac-
Upgraded website offers new electronic newspaper edition ...
The Standard newspaper has recently upgraded its website to offer both a more
attractive site, as well as more options for subscribers and advertisers. Among the
most noted improvements is the new electronic edition of The Standard, which allows
access to the same printed pages of each week's Standard in a more convenient online
version that eliminates delivery delays and also offers advertisers an opportunity to
share their message with a much broader audience.
cess to the same news as print
subscribers at the same time
as those local subscribers.
"Those who currently experi-
ence mailing delays of a few
days, or even a week or more
in some cases, can now have
access to that same news even
earlier, and at an even lower
cost than their print subscrip-
tion. And those who have
had difculties with the 'B'
section stuffed inside each
week's edition getting lost in
the mail delivery will no lon-
ger have that worry, either."
"It's a way for us to bet-
ter serve our loyal subscrib-
ers who want to keep up
on what's going on in their
hometown, and also a way
for area business and orga-
nizations to advertise their
message to a much broader
audience," Troendle contin-
ued. "The entire newspaper
page you once held in your
hand will now be available on
the screen of your computer,
tablet or smartphone. It's a
step in the right direction to-
ward keeping up with today's
technology."
The e-edition can be found
on The Standard's website,
www.waukonstandard.com,
by clicking on the white
"E-EDITION" link in the
black box located just be-
low the red "STANDARD"
masthead. Those e-editions
are currently free of charge
for the public to view and get
used to, but within the next
several weeks will only be
available by subscription.

Historic season culminates in Class 1A State Tournament Runner-Up nish
The Kee softball team wrapped up its undeniably best season in program history with a runner-up nish in the Class 1A State Tournament held in Fort Dodge this past week. Playing to a 34-10 nal
overall record that included a new school record for most wins in a season and the program's rst-ever Upper Iowa Conference (UIC) championship with a mark of 20-2 against UIC opponents, the softball
Hawks blasted through three regional tournament games by a combined scoring margin of 35-1 before pulling off what most believed to be upsets with wins in their rst two State Tournament games to
earn a coveted berth in the Class 1A State Championship game. That State Tournament run included a 4-0 rst-round victory over second-rated Lynnville-Sully Tuesday, July 22 and then a 3-1 seminals
triumph over fourth-rated AGWSR Thursday, July 24. It took the undefeated and defending Class 1A State Champion, Akron-Westeld, to nally halt Kee's State Tournament momentum. Following the 12-1
loss the highly-regarded Westerners handed the softball Hawks in that State Championship game Friday, July 25, they have now won four of the last ve Class 1A State Championships in making State
Tournament appearances in 11 of the last 12 seasons, continuing a current winning streak of 54 games with their second consecutive Class 1A State Tournament crown. Pictured above with their Class 1A
State Tournament Runner-Up trophy following completion of their historic 2014 season are the following Kee softball team members: Left to right - Front row: Nicole Vinson, Sierra Schobert, Nicki Wood,

Allamakee County voters to determine future of Local Option Sales Tax
by Bob Beach
Voters in Allamakee
County will head to the
polls Tuesday, August 5
to determine the future of
the Local Option Sales and
Service Tax (LOSST), a
one-percent tax on sales and
services. The tax is nothing
new - most jurisdictions in
the County have a ten-year
"sunset date" on the one-cent
sales tax, the only exception
being the City of Lansing.
Voters in all other towns
and townships will be asked
whether or not the tax should
be renewed for another ten
years and to approve how
the resulting revenues will be
spent.
WHERE TO VOTE
Polls will be open Tuesday,
August 5 from 12 noon to 8
p.m. Polling places are listed
below:
Waterloo and Hanover
Townships - St. Mary's
Church, Dorchester.
French Creek, Jefferson,
Ludlow, Makee and Union
Prairie Townships - Waukon
Banquet Center.

wards) - Northeast Iowa
Community College/Waukon
Wellness Center.
City of Postville
(Allamakee residents only),

WHO GETS THE
MONEY?
City Councils determine
how local option sales tax
revenues will be spent if the
tax passes the vote in the
their respective jurisdictions.
The Board of Supervisors
determines how revenues
collected in rural townships
will be distributed.
In the case of the rural
townships, 40% of LOSST
revenues will be distributed
directly to the townships
to help with their nancial
responsibilities, 30% will be
deposited into the County
Rural Services Fund and 30%
will be used for construction
and repair of secondary roads.
The City of Waukon will
use 100% of LOSST revenues
for reconstruction, repair
and replacement of existing
streets, curbs, storm sewers
and water mains and other
structures as they relate to
streets within the city limits.
In Waterville, 40% percent
of LOSST revenues will
be deposited into the City's
general fund, 40% will be
used for public safety and
street repairs and 20% will
be used for sewer system
maintenance.
In the City of Postville,
50% of LOSST revenues will
be used for public safety and
50% will be used for street
repairs, replacement and
improvements.
The City of Harpers
Ferry will use 100% of
LOSST revenues for street
repairs, replacement and
improvements.
The City of New Albin
will use LOSST revenues to
provide property tax relief by
depositing 100% of revenues
collected into the City's
general fund.
HISTORY OF LOSST
The Cities of Postville,
Waterville and Harpers Ferry
were the rst in Allamakee
County to approve the one-
percent Local Option Sales
and Service Tax in November
of 1994 with a four-year
sunset date. The City of
Waukon approved the tax
in October of 1995 and the
rural townships in the county
followed suit in July of 1997.
The remaining jurisdictions
of New Albin and Lansing
approved the tax for the rst
time in November of 1998.
Waterville, Harpers Ferry
and Postville voted to renew
the tax the in November
of 1998. The Board of
Supervisors adopted an
ordinance in December
of 1998 making LOSST
effective from January 1,
2000 until December 31,
2004. In March of 2004, all
jurisdictions voted to renew
the tax with a 10-year sunset
date, with the exception of
the City of Lansing, which
set a sunset date of ve years.
In August of 2009, the City of
Lansing renewed the tax with
no sunset date.
In the upcoming election
scheduled for Tuesday,
August 5, all jurisdictions
holding elections include a
10-year sunset provision,
with the exception of the
community of Harpers Ferry,
which will not include a
sunset provision.

attended the Dorchester School.
Following her schooling,
Velma did housekeeping for
several area families.
May 1, 1937 she married
Freeman John Fink in Waukon.
She and Freeman lived in
various places in Allamakee
County before settling in
New Albin in 1944. Velma
was a busy homemaker and
dedicated mother, raising nine
children; a job she had to do on
her own following Freemans
death in 1961. April 22, 1964
she married Walter Mack in
Chicago, IL. After Walters
death in 1966, Velma was once
again on her own but proved
more than capable of raising
her children with the values she
considered important.
In addition to tending to
her familys needs, Velma
was a member of the New
Albin VFW Ladies Auxiliary,
a devoted member of Grace
United Methodist Church and
its ladies organizations, and
the New Albin Sr. Citizens.
She was extremely community
oriented and supportive of her
friends, taking part in all of the
New Albin events and often
being among the rst to help
when anyone was in need.
Some of Velmas other
pastimes included playing
cards, listening to music and
dancing, and following the
Chicago Cubs. Throughout her
life her family remained the
center of importance and she
loved times they spent together
at holidays and special events.
Survivors include her nine
children, Rodney (Mary) Fink
of Waukon, Joe (Donna) Fink of
Novinger, MO, Pete (Bernice)
Fink, John Fink, Sheila (Lloyd)

Fink, all of New Albin, Donna
(Steve) Stortz of Waukon, and

brothers, Dale, Roger and
Kenneth (Lyla) Smith.

Good Samaritan Society-Waukon
honors Employee, CNA of the Year
Good Samaritan Society-
Waukon recently honored two
of its employees with annual
awards. Nurse Manager Barb
White was named the 2014
Employee of the Year, while
Laurie Gjere was named
2014 CNA of the Year.
Even though shes always
had a job, Barb White has
never applied or interviewed
for one. Shes been at Good
Samaritan Society-Waukon
for over 26 years, where
she started working as a
PRN (substitute) nurse. That
eventually evolved into the
full-time position of nurse
manager that she holds today.
Back in the day, states
White, I got my RN/
ADN (nursing) degree from
Rochester Junior College in
two years; at that time, it was
a new program replacing the
diploma RN. Now it takes
three years to get that degree.
There have been other
signicant changes in the
nursing profession as well.
Paperwork is the most
substantial change White
has noticed over the years
of nursing. We used to
have a three-page spring-
action chart; that was it. The
job was all about providing
cares," she shared. Now
she nds her role requiring
her to do paperwork pretty
much all day long. Even
that is changing, however;
Good Samaritan Society is
transitioning to all electronic
recordkeeping.
Most staff members would
agree with White that the best
part of working at a long-term
care facility is the residents.
They touch your life, she
said. You come into their
room to care for them and
they might be reading their
Bible, then they say theyll
pray for you. You are there to
serve them, but they always
give back so much more than
you can give.
Administrator Jim Sewick
speaks highly of White as
a nurse manager. Barb
has a commitment to high
standards of respect, quality
of care, and compassion for
both residents and staff,
he says. Shes a hands-on
leader who is not afraid to
hold her people accountable
while empowering them to
do their best.
In addition to nursing and
management skills, White
also sews and does alterations
for several hours after she gets
home every night. She also
sews walker and wheelchair
bags for the residents at
Good Samaritan Society. Her
husband of 41 years, Larry,
operates Heaven Sent Pet
Cremation with one of their
two sons. Their daughter has
recently gifted them with
their second grandchild.
I feel its a calling from
the Lord to help residents
enjoy the days they spend
here at Good Samaritan
Society, says White. Its a
blessing to see the peace they
experience.
Laurie Gjere has been
working as a Certied
Nursing Assistant (CNA)/
Medical Aide at Good Sam
for over four years, working
Barb White ... Laurie Gjere ...
in various capacities at Good
Sam for a total of over 11
years. She also works at
Evergreen Court apartments
as a Universal Worker,
helping serve lunch and clean
apartments.
Gjere is described as always
displaying a commitment to
Good Samaritan Societys
mission in the day-to-day
interactions she has with
the residents she serves,
consistently putting the
residents rst, always doing
those little extra things that
go beyond their basic cares.
The rst night I worked as a
CNA, a resident whacked me
in the face with a doll, Gjere
recalls. I just laughed about
it, and when the other CNA
saw my response, she said, I
guess youre going to make
it! Gjere is also known for
lling in whenever she is
needed without complaint,
being noted for stepping up
to the task with a smile and
being willing to do what is
asked of her with a positive
attitude, while her contagious
smile and laugh make her a
delight to be around.
Gjere insists that the best
part of the job is the residents.
Theyre like family, she
says. They get to know us
as well as we know them,
and they say they miss us
when were not here. If
there would be anything
she could change about her
job, Gjere says it would be
to have more time with the
residents. Shes noticed
positive changes in the years
since shes worked at Good
Sam, such as larger resident
rooms and a greater number
and variety of activities.
Outside of her employment
at Good Samaritan Society,
Gjere gives of herself in
many ways - helping out
at fundraisers, serving her
church, and volunteering at
school events. She also keeps
busy with her four children
and two grandchildren.
Gjere has faced very
challenging setbacks in her
life, yet is noted to have
demonstrated the ability to
rise above these situations
with grace, perseverance,
and compassion, with her
upstanding attitude and
professional mannerisms
being very refreshing.

75 Years Ago
August 2, 1939

This Week in the
County, State and Nation
La Crosses new
$1,500,000 Mississippi river
high bridge will be formally
dedicated on Saturday, Sept.
23, in an all-day ceremony,
it was decided Monday after-
noon by a citizens executive
dedication committee at a
Hotel Stoddard meeting. The
celebration is to be attended
by governors of Mississippi
valley states, as well as by
United States senators and
representatives, members of
state legislative bodies, state
highway commissioners, and
many other ofcials.

Harpers Ferry
The base ball game here
Sunday between St. Lucas
and the Hawks was a whale
of a game. It was tied up 3
and 3 until the twelfth when
the visitors put over one run,
winning 3 to 4. The strong
Monona team plays here next
Sunday. Monona defeated
Farmersburg Sunday in a
fourteen inning game.

A considerable number of
rattlesnakes have been killed
near here the past week.

A number from here expect
to attend a meeting at Gutten-
berg Thursday to work to get
the proposed federal highway
on the Iowa side of the Mis-
sissippi. Wisconsin is work-
ing hard to get it on that side.

Lycurgus News
Kenneth Welch, Clair
Lloyd and Sylvester Grady
left Sunday morning for Da-
kota where they expect to
spend some time.

Miss Mary Bresnahan who
is employed at the Elite caf
in Waukon, spent the past
week at her home here. Also
visiting over Sunday at the
Bresnahan home were Mr.
and Mrs. Linus Teff and baby
Ann from Ettick, Wis.

French Creek
Mr. and Mrs. C.J. Hinrichs
motored to Cresco Sunday
and were met by 116 farm-
ers from Louisiana who came
there that morning on a tour
through Northeastern Iowa to
observe our farming methods.

Waterville
Wachter Bros. have just
about completed a general
overhauling of their restau-
rant. They put in an electric
beverage cooler, a new set of
booths and have the place now
looking spic and span. Leslie
Anderson did the wiring, Al-
bert Hanson did the carpenter
work, and Joe Johnson did the
painting.

Mr. and Mrs. Gabe Ped-
erson returned Saturday
from an extended trip to the
Northwest, where they saw
the worlds fair at San Fran-
cisco; visited his two brothers
at Fairfax, Calif., and stopped
off a few days at Denver for a

toured a good part of the state
of California, and report a
wonderful time.

Waukon Briefs
Alex Drogsett while sh-
ing at the Junction Monday
placed an angleworm on his
hook and picked himself out
something unusual. It was
a three ft. eel weighing four
pounds which he brought
home alive. He has been
urged to present it to the city
park to become a denizen of
the lagoon.

It is inferred that Miss
Mabel Dunlevy and Miss
Margaret Ryan have become
rodeo minded, for they de-
parted Sunday for northern
Wyoming to spend a couple
of weeks on a guest ranch
among the Big Horn moun-
tains that is owned by Mr.
and Mrs. E.T. Foe, the latter
being a sister of M.C. Stone-
burg, manager of the Penny
Co. store. The ranch is rustic
and western in every sense
of the word among high pla-
teaus, mountain streams and
lakes and vast timber tracts,
affording a ne place for a va-
cation outing. Trained saddle
horses are at hand for riding
the mountain trails in cowboy
style, and the two Waukon
misses have been urged to
rope a romping cowboy and
bring him back alive.

Mr. and Mrs. Herbert Jen-
kins, nee Verna Monserud,
had their baby son baptized
Sunday by Rev. Robert Da-
vies at the Methodist church,
following the morning servic-
es. He was christened Rich-
ard Alfred and in honor of
the event his great aunt, Miss
Mary Jenkins, served dinner
to members of both families
at her home in Ludlow town-
ship.

Mr. and Mrs. Carl Johnson,
upon their return from a visit
with her folks at Lone Tree,
this state, left on Wednesday
last for Cambridge, Mass.,
where he will do research
work at the Harvard library
for the University of Oregon
where he is serving as an in-
structor.

Lansing Locals
Mr. and Mrs. Ken Zosel of
St. Paul were week-end guests
at the home of her father, R.A.
Dunlevy. Her sister, Jean Ann,
who had spent the past three
weeks with them in the city,
also returned home. Mr. Z.
was greatly impressed at wit-
nessing the spirit of loyalty to
the old home town shown by
former Lansingites.

Gibbet Gamme got back
to Lansing a little ahead of
Homecoming and his picture
appears among the ball club
photo in the Journal win-
dowbut no one remembers
him as a ball player.

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.
During the 2014-2015 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.

NEW TOOLKIT
CONNECTS LOCAL
FOOD TO THE
WORKPLACE
Marketing and distributing
locally-grown food just got
easier with a new Local Food
System Toolkit: Developing a
Worksite Food Box Program.
Produced by the Leopold
Center for Sustainable
Agriculture, Iowa State
University Extension and
Outreach, and the Iowa Food
Hub (IFH), the publication
describes the benets of
food hubs and workplace
food box deliveries, proles
the Worksite Food Box pilot
program implemented by
IFH in Decorah, and offers
guidance for implementing a
similar program.
The Worksite Food
Box program is aimed at
employers who want to make
a regular supply of healthy
food more accessible for their
employees. The program
offers an experimental
model for aggregating local
farm products and selling
them directly to consumers.
Healthy, pre-packed
food boxes are delivered
weekly and can be picked
up by employees at their
workplaces.

reports $63,346 June prot
by Brianne Eilers
The month of June ended
on a positive note for Veterans
Memorial Hospital (VMH),
with a net income of $63,346.
VMH completed its audit last
week. VMH Administrator
Mike Myers noted that after
visiting with the auditors, he
expects the year-to-date net
income gure of $374,789 to be
bumped up a bit to somewhere
just below $400,000.
"Obviously a good scal
year," Myers said. Looking at
year-to-date statistics, acute
patient days were exactly
where they were last June.
Skilled patient days were up
4.4%, and deliveries were up
9.6%. Total surgeries were
down 4.8%, and Myers noted
that last year was "a pretty
spectacular year" in terms
of the amount of surgeries
performed at VMH. Outpatient
lab was up 10%. Outpatient
physical therapy was up
22.7%; however Myers noted
that due to the fact that many
things must be pre-authorized
right now, they are seeing a
decrease physical therapy
numbers.
Emergency room visits were
up 4%. Gross patient revenue
was down $3.4%, but expenses
were also kept down by 2%.
Myers noted that they should
end the year with a 2.6% prot
margin, and the hospital had
budgeted for a 2.5% prot
margin. The number of days in
accounts receivable is at 82.8,
but Myers said that he thought
that number has "come down
signicantly" in the last couple
of weeks.
"The month of July has
been extremely slow," Myers
said. He added that while July
has been slow, it has given
staff a good opportunity to
learn to use the newly installed
electronic medical records
system. VMH is just over three
weeks into the new system,
and Myers said they have been
working with the company to
make changes to the program
to make it more procient for
them. "The thing that amazes
me is the dedicated effort of
everybody, from the providers
to our staff, have made in
implementing this," Myers
noted, even though there have
been frustrations at times.
Myers also reported that
VMH's focus on wellness has
yielded results, and helped
them to get a better benet
renewal rate on insurance.
Myers said they are continuing
to look at ways to promote
wellness for the hospital's
employees, with the end result
being to help keep insurance
premium increases as low as
possible.
VMH will be purchasing a
new anesthesia machine out
of its contingency funds. The
other machine was somewhere
between 10 to 15 years old,
and after weighing the options
between trying to nd parts
and repair the old one, it
was decided that the better
decision would be to purchase
a new one. The cost of the new
machine is expected to be just
under $100,000. VMH will
begin more HIPPA training
after everyone is comfortable
using the new electronic
medical records program,
focusing on the importance
of protecting privacy. VMH
has also purchased a people
reach system, which will be
used in the event of a disaster
to reach staff. The system will
send texts, emails or phone
calls until the person responds.
Myers noted that this will be a
more effective method than a
calling tree, and more people
will be contacted in a shorter
period of time.
VMH has been using nitrous
oxide for deliveries. This is a
fairly new concept, and at this
time, not many hospitals are
using it yet. Myers noted that
they have used for three or
four patients and all physicians
have been trained on it. Myers
also said that the feedback has
been positive. Also on the OB
front, VMH is participating in
a water birth study with Mayo
Health System. The study,
which involves three hospitals,
is looking at the risks and
benets. Dr. David Schwartz
is the lead person for VMH
in that study. "It's exciting to
be part of a study with Mayo
Health System and we are
interested to see the results,"
Myers said.

joining a CSA (Community
Supported Agriculture)
program, the majority of
IFHs food box customers are
new to local food. By making
its food boxes convenient
for customers to receive,
with workplace drop-offs
and exible week-to-week
ordering, it has been able to
recruit customers who might
not otherwise buy local.
IFH works primarily
with small or medium-
sized operations. Food hubs
shorten the supply chain from
farm to consumer, allowing
farmers to keep a larger
portion of each dollar that
consumers spend. The Food
Box program provides a lot
of exibility for farmers, as
they can supply produce of
their choice to the program. It
can even be a way to absorb
a surplus of desirable produce
that the farmer has not been
able to sell through other
outlets.
Developing a Worksite
Food Box Program is the rst
toolkit in a series designed
to share knowledge gleaned
from local foods work and
research in northeast Iowa.
The work described in the
toolkits suggests proven ways
to further develop systems
of local food aggregation,
distribution, and volume sales
in northeast Iowa.
All toolkits function as
case studies, and though
they are not necessarily
transferable to all situations,
they provide examples of
models that could be applied
in many other communities.
Upcoming toolkits will focus
on other topics related to
food hubs, including farm to
school and the economics of
trucking and infrastructure.

available on the Leopold
Center website at http://www.

Board of Supervisors updated on shortage of mental health beds
by Bob Beach
During its regular
meeting Tuesday, July 22 the
Allamakaee County Board of
Supervisors met with Case
Management Administrator
Kim Waters, who reviewed
the agenda of an upcoming
meeting of the County Social
Services Board. During that
discussion, Sheriff Clark
Mellick asked Waters about
the County's contracts with
area hospitals regarding
treatment of mental health
patients, reporting that the
Sheriff's Department has
been experiencing increasing
difculty in nding beds for
people with mental health
issues. Mellick said that his
deputies are commonly tied
up for hours at the emergency
room trying to nd suitable
placement for people, some
of whom are suicidal, have
substance abuse issues or
both. He said that often the
only mental health beds
available are in Ames or as
far away as Sioux City and
that in some cases, suicidal
patients are released when
beds can't be found for them.
Mellick told Waters and the
Board that the shortage of
mental health beds has been
talked about for years but
nothing has been done and
the problem is getting worse.
He suggested that adding a
mental health holding facility
to the planned public safety
center should be considered.
Waters said that the
County's contracts with area
hospitals do not guarantee
that beds will be available;
the contracts only the set the
payment rates when services
are used. She said that the
inability to transport patients
across state lines in the case
of involuntary committals is
a large part of the problem,
as mental health treatment
facilities are located as
nearby as La Crosse, WI. She
agreed that a mental health
holding area at the planned
public safety center should be
considered.
Waters also informed the
Board that a part-time Case
Manager has resigned and
that the position will not be
lled right away since case
loads have lessened as a result
of "health homes."
The Board also met with
County Engineer Brian
Ridenour, who asked the
Board to set a date for the
opening of bids for the
replacement and repair of
several culverts in the New
Albin Area. The Board set
Tuesday, August 12 at 10
a.m. as the date and time to
open the bids. Ridenour also
presented the Board with
plans and specications for
an emergency generator to
serve the Makee Manor radio
tower. The Board approved
the plans and Ridenour
said that he would accept
competitive quotes on the
project until August 14.
In other business, the
Board accepted and placed
on le quarterly reports from
the Relief Ofce and Veterans
Affairs. The Board also signed
the nal loan documents
for the funding of a new re
station for the Waukon Area
Fire Protection District and
met with County Attorney Jill
Kistler to review the County's
Code of Ordinances.

Bear Creek Drive now complete ... 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, and Allamakee County Auditor Denise Beyer. Photo and report by Bob Beach.
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
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 followtheIowaDepartment 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.

Ann served as an Allamakee County Extension Council member from 2002-2004. They were named the Alla- makee County Pioneer Dairy Family in 2007. Kermit and Anns service to the 4-H program empha- sizes the mission of the 4-H Hall of Fame. The Klees- es have touched many lives through their dedication, encouragement, commitment, and guidance to the Allama- kee County 4-H Program. Honorees were selected by their counties for their outstanding service and dedication to 4-H. Inductees or their surviving family members were presented a certicate by the Iowa 4-H Foundation as they were introduced on stage. A reception was held shortly after each of the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame presentations. This is a wonderful opportunity for the counties and state to recognize and celebrate 4-H volunteers and staff who have shown outstanding service and dedication to Iowas 4-H program, said Chris Gleason, of ISU Exten- sion and Outreach 4-HYouth 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 Univer- sity Extension county council members, county youth council members, fair judges, nancial supporters, chaper- ones 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. Information about this years inductees to the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame also is available on the Iowa 4-H Foundation website, orga- nized by year and by county.

SILVER LINING: Kee softball team wins two of three to nish as Class 1A State Runner-Up
Softball Hawks defeat #2 Lynnville-Sully, #4 AGWSR before having title denied by Akron-Westeld dynasty
WE BELIEVE ...
It was a simple statement
on the back of the t-shirts
worn by Kee softball players
and fans as they made their
way to Fort Dodge this past
week. But after the Class 1A
State Softball Tournament
dust has settled, most oth-
ers who watched the softball
Hawks play their way to their
State Tournament runner-up
nish with two wins in three
games now believe as well.
The Kee diamond dandies
topped off what has undeni-
ably been the greatest season
in Kee softball history with
a run to the Class 1A State
Championship game, defeat-
ing two of the three top-ve
rated teams they faced on the
way to nishing where 95
other Class 1A teams would
love to have been. The Hawks
began their runner-up effort
with a 4-0 triumph over sec-
ond-rated Lynnville-Sully
(34-1) in the opening round
of tournament play Tuesday,
July 22 before knocking off
fourth-rated Ackley-Geneva/
Wellsburg-Steamboat Rock
(AGWSR), 3-1, Thursday,
July 24 to earn that berth in
the state championship game.
In that state championship
nale, Kee became the 54th
consecutive victim, 12-1,
of a recent Akron-Westeld
dynasty that has now won
four of the past ve Class 1A
State Tournament champion-
ships, ending Kees brilliant
postseason tournament surge
and leaving the Hawks as the
2014 Class 1A State Tourna-
ment Runner-Up.
Its been truly amazing,
Kee softball coach Liz Hill
said of her charges journey
to a Class 1A State Tour-
nament Runner-Up nish.
We really appreciate all the
support that was given to us
along the way. The crowd
was amazing down there for
the entire tournament, and the
support from the community
was just awesome.
The Lady Hawks compiled
an overall season record of
34-10, a mark that included a
new school record for victo-
ries in a season and a 20-2 re-
cord that resulted in the pro-
grams rst-ever Upper Iowa
Conference championship.
State Quarternals vs.
Lynnville Sully ...
The opening game of the
Class 1A State Tournament
was a battle between soar-
ing Hawks, those from Lyn-
nville-Sully ying in on a
number-two ranking and a
34-1 season record that in-
cluded a 30-game winning
streak, and those from Kee
ying somewhat under the ra-
dar without a state ranking to
their credit but a considerable
32-9 season mark. When the
dust settled, the only num-
bers that truly mattered were
the 4-0 victory Kees softball

Once-extirpated
sh species is
believed to have
been discovered
in the Mississippi
State and national scien-
tists are working to identify a
sh found in the Mississippi
River recently that, if proven
to be what it is thought, would
be the rst time in more than
80 years the species has been
conrmed in Iowa.
Iowa Department of Nat-
ural Resources (DNR) sh-
eries staff collecting sh for
a shing clinic in early July
captured what is believed by
state and national authorities
to be a longear sunsh.
If this proves to be a
longear sunsh, it will be
the rst time since 1932 the
species has been positive-
ly identied in Iowa, said
DNR sheries technician
Adam Thiese, who collected
the sh. How it got here and
where it came from remains
to be determined. For those
that work in the sheries
eld, both state and nation-
ally, anytime an uncommon
species can be documented,
its an exciting discovery.
Leading national ichthyol-
ogists believe it is a longear
sunsh. A n clip has been
collected to verify. Once
listed as common in bayous
around Muscatine, they have
been extirpated from the state
for more than eight decades.
The sh is being held alive
by the DNR until it can be
positively identied.

State Tournament victory in
school history.
There are no words to de-
scribe it, Kee softball coach
Liz Hill said of what some
people described as an up-
set of Lynnville-Sully by her
team. It takes all 18 girls to
pull off something like this. I
know there are only nine that
get to play at a time, but ev-
eryone on this team has a role
and they all contribute some-
thing to the success that this
team is having.
Like a pair of heavyweight
prize ghters, the two teams
measured each other up and
slugged out three consecutive
scoreless innings to start the
game. Lynnville-Sully raised
the greatest early threat, with
a two-out triple in the open-
ing frame that was laid to rest
one y ball later, while Kee
also managed just a single
hit in those three stanzas, a
lead-off single by sophomore
second baseman Ellie Cooper
that eventually left her strand-
ed at third base as well.
Both teams also posed
threats in the fourth frame,
but with much differing, fate-
lled results. Lynnville-Sully
mounted its charge rst with
a two-out single followed by
a Kee error, but another y
ball left that threat unrealized
one batter later.
Kee also found itself in a
two-out silence in the bot-
tom of the fourth until a
couple of extra base hits -
nally broke the scoreboard
ice in a big way. Junior right

State Tournament Runner-Up nish, none bigger than the nal out pictured above from Kees 3-1 seminals triumph
over AGWSR Thursday, July 24. In addition to their defensive contributions, Cooper was also a combined four-for-10
at the plate to pace the Hawk offense during the tournament, driving in two runs and scoring two of her own, while
Walleser also helped Kee score its only run of the championship game by getting on base via a dropped y ball that
eventually resulted in eighth grade pinch-runner Annie Dibert scoring the Hawks only run in that 12-1 loss to defend-

State Seminals vs.
AGWSR ...
It came down to some -
nal-inning dramatics, but Kee
softballs monumental march
to state tournament glory
continued on with a 3-1 tri-
umph over Ackley-Geneva/
Wellsburg-Steamboat Rock
(AGWSR) Thursday, July 24
in the seminal round of the
Class 1A State Tournament.
With just one out and bases
loaded in that nal frame,
Kees bend-but-dont-break
defense protected that 3-1
lead by securing the nal two
outs to leave three game-win-
ning runs stranded on the
bases and move the high-y-
ing Hawks on to the Class 1A
State Championship game.
The Hawks wasted little
time establishing themselves
in this contest, turning AG-
WSR away in order in the top
of the rst inning before draw-
ing rst blood in the bottom
of the frame. Senior shortstop
Kaylee Darling drew a one-
out walk and advanced to
second on a ground-out from
eight grade pitcher Kendra
Cooper before blazing home
on a single up the middle by
junior Val Meyer for a 1-0
Kee headstart.
The two teams settled in
somewhat over the next three
scoreless innings, allowing
each other limited baserun-
ners but also stranding them
in scoring position to leave
the 1-0 Kee scoreboard ad-
vantage intact through four
complete innings. Kee s de-
fense faced its greatest chal-
lenge up to that point in the
top of the fth inning when
two Hawk errors and a sacri-
ce bunt pushed two runners
into scoring position with
just one out. However, that
same Kee defense that dug
itself that threatening hole
hoisted itself right back out
of it when sophomore second
baseman Ellie Cooper and
Darling scooped up consec-
utive ground balls for outs
and an end to that particular
threat short of any scoreboard
damage.
Perhaps regenerated by
turning away that AGWSR
challenge, or just wanting
to respond to it, Kees of-
fense also came to life in that
fth frame for its greatest
production of the ballgame
that would prove to be even
greater a couple innings later.
Eighth grade designated play-
er Chloe Severson crushed a
stand-up double to left eld
to spark the Hawk surge be-
fore Ellie Cooper followed
that example one out later
to score Severson, Cooper
ending up on third after the
throw in from the outeld and
then scoring on a ground-out
by Darling to improve Kees
standing to 3-0 after ve full
frames.
Neither team could scratch
out a run in the sixth inning,
bringing AGWSR to its -
nal chances at reversing its
scoreboard fate. That nal
opportunity got off to a prom-
ising start for the Cougars,
as a lead-off walk, a elders
choice a split second too late
at second base, and a one-out
single loaded the bases with
hungry Cougars. Another
single nally plated the rst
run allowed by the Hawks in
14 State Tournament innings,
cutting Kees lead to 3-1 with
the bases still loaded, just
one Cougar out in the books,
and Class 1As leading home
run hitter - AGWSR junior
pitcher Ashley Sicard with 14
home runs this season - step-
ping to the plate.
Coach Hill made a couple
trips to the pitching circle
to regroup her troops in the
midst of their greatest chal-
lenge of the tournament. I
told them we could afford to
give up a run or two, as long
as we got the outs, she ex-
plained. We just needed to
get those nal two outs, so
I told them to just relax and
play the game like they know
how.
Hills defensive charges
responded directly, as fresh-
man third baseman Courtney
Cooper made a stretching
catch above her head while
backpedaling to deny Sicard
any late-game heroics, and
then Ellie Cooper swallowed
up one nal ground ball and
red it to junior rst baseman
Molly Walleser to erase all
threats and propel the Hawks
to the Class 1A championship
game with a 3-1 victory.
That was a huge defen-
sive stand to win that game,
Hits safely in all three games ...

second base after one of her two hits in the Hawks 3-1
seminals victory over AGWSR at the Class 1A State
Tournament Thursday, July 24. Meyer was two-for-three

half of her four hits in nine at-bats in the tournament that
included a double and getting a hit in all three of Kees
games. View and nd out how to purchase this photo
Coach Hill said. And even
though we had certain girls
make plays here or there,
it took all 18 of our girls on
the roster to get us that win.
Thats what this team has
been all about this entire sea-
son, everyone doing their part
to help us be successful.
Kendra Cooper went the
distance in the pitching cir-
cle once again, throwing all
seven innings and allowing
ve hits and one walk while
striking out ve AGWSR bat-
ters. The Hawks managed just
four his of their own, Meyer
owning half of those bingos
with two singles in three at-
bats to drive in one Kee run.
Severson and Ellie Cooper
each pounded out a double
to account for the Hawks
other offense, Cooper driv-
ing in Severson for a run and
scoring another, with Darling
driving in the other Kee tally.
State Finals vs.
Akron-Westeld ...
The dream that has become
this 2014 Kee softball season
was ready to take its nal step
toward reality, as the Hawks
had made their way to the
Class 1A State Championship
game. Standing in the way of
that dream turning to reality
was the defending Class 1A
State Champions from Ak-
ron-Westeld, a team that
has been a State Tournament
qualier in 11 of the past 12
seasons, won four of the last
ve Class 1A State Tourna-
ment softball titles and also
put together a string of 53
consecutive victories coming

stand-up double to spark a
bit of life into the Hawk of-
fense, with freshman third
baseman Courtney Cooper
battling through a lengthy
at-bat to nally draw a base
on balls. Senior catcher El-
lie Heiderscheit then stepped
to the plate to blast a triple
past the Lynnville-Sully right
elder, scoring both Meyers
pinch-runner, eighth grader
Annie Dibert, and Cooper on
the hit. A throw to third base
in an effort to catch Heider-
scheit off the bag on the same
play, however, sailed into left
eld, allowing Heiderscheit
to blaze home as well, push-
ing Kee to a 3-0 advantage
through four complete in-
nings.
Lynnville-Sully managed
another two-out hit in the
top of the fth, but was once
again turned away immedi-
ately by Kees defense. The
Hawks of purple and silver
tacked on one more run cour-
tesy of a senior leader in the
bottom of the fth, as Ellie
Cooper rst laced a single
through the Lynnville-Sully
defense before senior short-
stop Kaylee Darling unload-
ed a double off the base of the
left eld fence to drive Ellie
Cooper home for a 4-0 Kee
scoreboard margin.
A scoreless exchange in the
sixth brought Lynnville-Sully
to its nal opportunity in the
top of the seventh inning, an
opportunity that got a good
rst breath of life from a
lead-off single followed by a
one-out single. The next Lyn-
nville-Sully batter looped a
y ball into center eld that
looked as if it may further
the oth-
er Hawks
newf ound
offense, but,
instead, a
h e a d s - u p
effort by se-
nior center
elder Jor-
dan Colsch
allowed her
to chase
down the
y ball for
the second
out and
then alertly
toss the ball
in to Ellie
Cooper at
second base
to catch
that oth-
er Hawk
baserunner
off the bag
and bring
the game to
an abrupt,
triumphant
end, 4-0, in
Kees favor.
We had
some big
plays made
by each of
this years
three se-
niors in
this game,
Coach Hill
said. Their
l eadershi p
and what
they bring
to this team
from their
past expe-
rience has
been crucial
to every-
thing that this years team is
accomplishing.
Kees Ellie tandem of
Cooper and Heiderscheit
paced the Hawk offense with
two-for-three efforts in the
contest, Heiderscheit belting
a triple and single to drive
in two runs and score one of
her own and Cooper popping
a pair of singles to score one
run. Darling and Meyer ac-
two teams, the Hawks start-
ed the game doing what they
had done all throughout their
brilliant tournament run,
battling head-to-head with-
out backing down. The two
teams traded scoreless jabs
through the games rst two
innings, Kee being retired
in order on offense in those
rst two innings and dodging
bullets on defense throughout
second and third bases with
just one out in each of those
two innings before Kees de-
fense rose to the occasion as
it had in its previous tourna-
ment games to leave those
scoring threats stranded
and a zero on Akron-West-
elds side of the scoreboard
through the Westerners rst
three turns at the plate.
It was Kees turn to ap-
ply a little pressure in the
bottom of the third inning,
nally breaking down the
to scamper to third base.
Sophomore second base-
man Ellie Cooper then drilled
a hot shot to her Akron-West-
eld counterpart, who tried
to throw home in an effort to
tag out Dibert at the plate, but
the throw was low and Dibert
was able to slide past the tag
attempt to push Kee to a 1-0
headstart before the inning
was ended.
That Hawk uprising
seemed to renew Akron-West-
elds own offensive effort,
as the Westerners banged out
a double and four singles in
the top of the fourth frame to
nally break their own score-
board ice and jump ahead to a
4-1 lead. Still seemingly un-
daunted, the Hawks tried to
re right back in the bottom
of that same frame, getting
a lead-off single from junior
right elder Val Meyer be-
fore freshman third baseman
Courtney Cooper crushed
a y ball misplayed by the
Westerner center elder to
put Meyer on third and her-
self on second base with no
outs.
Akron-Westeld rose to
the occasion, however, getting
two y balls and a ground-out
from the next three Hawk bat-
ters to turn away what would
be Kees greatest threat for
the remainder of the ball-
game. The Hawks also got
a one-out single from Ellie
Cooper in the fth, a two-out
single from Heiderscheit in
the sixth and a lead-off sin-
gle from Severson in the sev-
enth, but all three baserunners
were left stranded, along with
Kees state championship
hopes.
Akron-Westeld was far
from done, however, their
bats continuing to produce
runs in each of the games
remaining three innings. A
lead-off double and a sin-
gle pushed the Westerners
lead to 5-1 in the fth, with
a Kee error, two singles and
a double sending anoth-
er three tallies home in the
sixth. Akron-Westeld put
the nishing touches on its
side of the scoreboard in the
seventh frame on two walks,
two singles and a Hawk error
that pushed the Westerners
state championship repeat to
a 12-1 nal score.
Ellie Cooper drove in
Kees only run of the contest,
joining Meyer, Heiderscheit
and Severson in each swatting
a single in that state champi-
onship game to account for
Kees only hits of the contest.
Dibert tallied the lone Kee
run of the contest.
Eighth grader Kendra Coo-
per suffered the pitching loss,
allowing eight hits, hitting
two batters, walking none and
striking out one in four and
two-thirds innings in which
she gave up just one earned
run out of the four scored by
Akron-Westeld in her tenure
in the pitching circle. Her sis-
ter, Courtney Cooper, came
on for two and one-third in-
nings of middle relief, allow-
ing eight hits and three walks
without a strike-out in giving
up six earned runs out of the
eight scored by the Western-
ers in that timeframe.
It takes all of us ...
Some of the youngest members of the Kee softball team perform their usual baserunning drills between innings
during one of the Hawks Class 1A State Tournament games in Fort Dodge this past week. Kee head coach Liz Hill
says even though there are only nine girls that can play on the eld at most during a game, it takes all of us to
achieve the kind of success the Hawks have had this season, giving credit to the young reserves as well. Pictured

Scholarships available
for EMT course at VMH
The Auxiliary of Veterans
Memorial Hospital has an-
nounced that it will be offer-
ing two full scholarships for
individuals from the commu-
nity to attend the Emergency
Medical Technician (EMT)
course to beheld this fall at
Veterans Memorial Hospital.
There is a need for more
EMTs in the area so the
hospital Auxiliary, in an ef-
fort to help recruit, will pay
the Northeast Iowa Commu-
nity College (NICC) college
credit fee for two individuals
this upcoming school year.
The course will be taught in
Waukon at Veterans Memo-
rial Hospital two evenings
per week. Some classes are
held at NICC, plus, as part
of the training, some hours
are required at other medical
facilities outside of Veter-
ans Memorial Hospital. The
course will begin in mid-
September and conclude in
April. A written and practical
exam are then required, with
licenses being awarded to all
those with passing grades in
both categories.
Upon completion of the
course and obtaining the
EMT license, these two indi-
viduals will then be hired by
and will begin taking ambu-
lance calls. EMTs are paid
an hourly salary when they
are on a call, plus an hourly
call time salary is paid
while EMTs are on call and
are within the required ve-
minute response time.
The EMT profession is
suitable for individuals who
have recently become empty
nesters or have taken early
retirements, anyone who is
seeking a rewarding, profes-
sional hobby, or would like
a second job for additional
income.
Applications for these
EMT scholarships are avail-
able at the front desk of Vet-
erans Memorial Hospital, as
well as on the hospitals web-
site at www.veteransmemori-
alhospital.com.

please contact Human Re-

The Perfect Engagement Ring
When it came time to
look for an engagement
ring for Kayleen I
didnt know where
to begin but was
looking for
something special
and deserving.
After looking
through all the
mall jewelry stores
and shops and
just not nding the
right ring for her I
remembered that my
dad had bought my
moms ring from Elliotts.
After asking him about
it he suggested checking out
their store and I would be surprised.
He couldnt have been more right. Big
selection and an honest helpful staff goes
a long way. They were very welcoming
and helpful showing me anything I wanted to look at and answering my
many questions! Elliotts made such a big decision so much easier. With
their professional knowledge and small town feel, I was able to pick the
perfect engagement ring for Kayleen leaving with no doubts in my mind.

Blood products in high
demand during summer
Blood drive August 7
The next LifeServe Blood
Center blood drive will be
held Thursday, August 7
from 12:30 to 5:30 p.m. at
First Baptist Church located
in Waukon (614 Rossville
Road). Blood drives are held
the rst Thursday of every
month in Waukon to allow for
more donors to give. The
LifeServe Blood Center sup-
plies Veterans Memorial Hos-
pital with it blood and blood
products.
Blood centers across the
United States see a decrease
in blood donations during the
busy summer months. Dur-
ing the summer, people be-
come more active, have busier
schedules, spend more time
outdoors and take vacations.
While donations decline, hos-
pitals see an increase in the
need for blood. More driving
can mean more automobile
accidents. A person who has
suffered severe injuries from
an automobile accident can
need up to 50 units of blood.
Appointments are encour-
aged and walk-ins can only
be accepted as the schedule
permits. To schedule an ap-
pointment, contact the Life-
Serve Blood Center at 800-
287-4903.
All those wishing to
give blood are asked to give
themselves at least 56 days
between blood donations.
Those donating blood should
not fast, but rather eat a nor-
mal, healthy meal that day.
Anyone giving blood must
be 17 years of age or older,
be in general good health and
weigh at least 120 pounds.

Writing can help us deal with many of lifes problems. Many teenagers have weathered the storm and stress of those turbulent years by keeping a journal, and that same practice can help virtually anyone who can
express him or herself in writing. Writing about our fears and anxieties has a way of making them a little less scary and often gives us insight into how to resolve the situation. It can also be helpful to write about
our lives in a way that essentially rewrites the story. Someone who is feeling a lack of courage might write about themselves displaying courage. We all have stories to tell, and in thinking about our lives we have a
tendency to place our lives into an overarching narrative. That is, we tell ourselves a particular story that makes sense of our life. The story we tell as a teenager is likely to be very different from the one we tell in
our twenties or thirties, and there is obviously some wisdom to periodically updating our story. What is the story that you currently tell about your life, and how would you like to see it changed? As we get older,
and especially as we approach our golden years, we should think more about whether our story really does t the life we have lived, and the story that we hope our life will someday tell. We should also remember
that the nal version cant be written until our life is complete. - Christopher Simon Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. Psalm 90:12

Bear Creek Drive now complete ... 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, and Allamakee County Auditor Denise Beyer. Photo and report by Bob Beach.
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
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 followtheIowaDepartment 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.

Ann served as an Allamakee County Extension Council member from 2002-2004. They were named the Alla- makee County Pioneer Dairy Family in 2007. Kermit and Anns service to the 4-H program empha- sizes the mission of the 4-H Hall of Fame. The Klees- es have touched many lives through their dedication, encouragement, commitment, and guidance to the Allama- kee County 4-H Program. Honorees were selected by their counties for their outstanding service and dedication to 4-H. Inductees or their surviving family members were presented a certicate by the Iowa 4-H Foundation as they were introduced on stage. A reception was held shortly after each of the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame presentations. This is a wonderful opportunity for the counties and state to recognize and celebrate 4-H volunteers and staff who have shown outstanding service and dedication to Iowas 4-H program, said Chris Gleason, of ISU Exten- sion and Outreach 4-HYouth 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 Univer- sity Extension county council members, county youth council members, fair judges, nancial supporters, chaper- ones 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. Information about this years inductees to the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame also is available on the Iowa 4-H Foundation website, orga- nized by year and by county. Go to http://www.iowa4h- foundation.org/ and select Recognition. The Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame was initiated in 2002 to help commemorate the 100th anniversary of 4-H.

Livestock Indemnity
Program
The Agricultural Act of
2014 (2014 Farm Bill) autho-
rized the Livestock Indemni-
ty Program (LIP) to provide
benets to livestock produc-
ers for livestock deaths in
excess of normal mortality
caused by adverse weather. In
addition, LIP covers attacks
by animals reintroduced into
the wild by the federal gov-
ernment or protected by fed-
eral law, including wolves
and avian predators. LIP pay-
ments are equal to 75 percent
of the market value of the ap-
plicable livestock on the day
before the date of death of the
livestock as determined by
the Secretary.
The 2014 Farm Bill makes
LIP a permanent program
and provides retroactive au-
thority to cover eligible live-
stock losses back to October
1, 2011.
LIP is administered by the
Farm Service Agency (FSA)
of the U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA).
To be eligible for LIP, a
livestock producer must have
legally owned the eligible
livestock on the day the live-
stock died.
To be eligible for LIP, an
owners livestock must:
Have died as a direct
result of an eligible adverse
weather event or eligible at-
tack by an eligible animal or
avian predator occurring on
or after October 1, 2011, and
no later than 60 calendar days
from the ending date of the
applicable adverse weather
event and in the calendar
year for which benets are
requested.
Have been maintained for
commercial use as part of a
farming operation on the day
they died, and;
Not have been produced
for reasons other than com-
mercial use as part of a farm-
ing operation. Excluded
livestock includes wild free
roaming animals, pets or
animals used for recreational
purposes, such as hunting,
roping or for show.
To be eligible for LIP, a
contract grower must have
had the following on the day
the livestock died:
Possession and control of
the eligible livestock, and;
A written agreement with
the eligible livestock owner
setting the specic terms,
conditions and obligations of
the parties involved regarding
the production of livestock.
In addition to the require-
ments listed for livestock
owners above, the only eli-
gible livestock of contract
growers under LIP are poul-
try and swine.
LIP payments are calcu-
lated by multiplying the na-
tional payment rate for each
livestock category by the
number of eligible livestock
in each category.
LIP national payment rate
for eligible livestock owners
is based on 75 percent of the
average fair market value of
the livestock.
The LIP national payment
rate for eligible livestock con-
tract growers is based on 75
percent of the average income
loss sustained by the contract
grower with respect to the
dead livestock.
A contract growers LIP
payment will be reduced by
the amount of monetary com-
pensation received from his/
her contractor for the loss
of income suffered from the
death of livestock under con-
tract.
Producers may apply to
receive LIP benets at local
FSA ofces.
Producers who suffer live-
stock death losses should
submit a notice of loss and
an application for payment
to the local FSA ofce that
maintains their farm records.
To be eligible, the notice
of loss must be submitted the
earlier of:
30 calendar days of when
the loss of livestock is appar-
ent to the producer, or;
30 calendar days after
the end of the calendar year
in which the loss of livestock
occurred.
For livestock deaths that
occurred between October 1,
2011 and December 31, 2014,
the deadline to le a notice of
the loss and an application for
payment is January 30, 2015.
For livestock deaths that
occur during calendar year
2015 and after, the deadline
to le notice of the death is
30 after the death is discov-
ered. The deadline to submit
an application for payment is
January 30 the following cal-
endar year.
The producer must include
a copy of the grower contract
if he/she is a contract grow-
er and any other supporting
documents required for deter-
mining eligibility. Supporting
documents must show evi-
dence of loss, current physi-
cal location of livestock in
inventory and location of the
livestock at the time of death.
Payments may be made
for eligible losses suffered
by an eligible producer who
is now deceased or for a dis-
solved entity if a currently
authorized representative
signs the application for pay-
ment. Proof of authority to
sign for a deceased individual
or dissolved entity must be
provided. If a producer is a
dissolved entity, all former
members at the time of disso-
lution or their duly authorized
representative(s) must sign
the application for payment.
Documentation require-
ments for livestock deaths
that occurred between Oc-
tober 1, 2011 and December
31, 2014 have been relaxed
from the rules outlined below.
Contact a local FSA county
ofce for additional informa-

Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach of-
ces across northeast Iowa
are hosting farmland leas-
ing meetings from July 30

Terminate farm leases by September 1
to make changes to lease contracts
Land owners who want to
make changes to their farm
lease contracts or who want
to change renters are remind-
ed that they need to properly
terminate their leases. Writ-
ten notice of termination may
be delivered personally with
the tenant signing to show ac-
knowledgement of the termi-
nation. The written notice can
also be mailed before Sep-
tember 1 by certied mail.
The Iowa State Bar Associa-
tion has a form called Notice
of Termination of Farm Ten-
ancy that is available on the
ISU Extension website or the
Allamakee SWCD website.
The Allamakee SWCD is
encouraging farm landown-
ers to revise their conserva-
tion plans and attach them to
their farm leases. Many plans
havent been updated since
the mid to late 1990s. Often
renters want the plan to be
written to the minimum that
they have to do to still be in
compliance so they can con-
tinue to receive their program
payments. In most cases,
there is much more that could
be done on highly erodible
ground to protect the land.
Landowners have the right
to state how they want to land
to be managed and the re-
sponsibility to protect it from
eroding. By attaching the con-
servation plan and plan map
to the farm lease, it becomes
part of the lease contract.
This helps the landowner
ensure that the plan is being
followed. The landowner and
renter become more aware
of what is written in the plan
and can see if it needs to be
updated as crop rotations and
tillage practices change. It
can be especially benecial
to include the plan map in the
lease documents because it
clearly shows where specic
practices should be installed
and maintained.
In order to change farm
leases to include the conser-
vation plan (if they do not al-
ready) they need to be termi-
nated by September 1. New
leases have to be signed by
March 1.
The Allamakee SWCD
currently has a project to help
landowners include conserva-
tion in their farm leases by
updating their conservation
plans and discussing addi-
tional conservation provi-
sions. For more information
about this project and how
to include conservation in
a farm lease, contact Sara
Berges at the Allamakee
County SWCD at 563-568-
2246 ext. 3, sara.berges@

Iowa Secretary of Agricul-
ture Bill Northey announced
recently that $1.4 million in
cost share funds are available
to help farmers install new
nutrient reduction practices.
The practices eligible for this
funding are cover crops, no-
till or strip till, or using a ni-
Ag Secretary announces $1.4 million
available for water quality practices
trication inhibitor when ap-
plying fertilizer.
We continue to hear from
farmers interested in doing
even more to limit nutrient
loss and better protect water
quality and these funds will
help them try new voluntary
science-based conserva-
tion practices on their farm,
Northey said. We were ex-
tremely pleased by the re-
sponse last year from farmers
and are excited to have funds
available again this year.
The cost share rate for
farmers planting cover crops
is $25 per acre and for farm-
ers trying no-till or strip till is
$10 per acre. Farmers using a
nitrapyrin nitrication inhibi-
tor when applying fall fertil-
izer can receive $3 per acre.
Any farmer not already
utilizing these practices can
apply for this assistance.
Farmers are only eligible for
cost share on up to 160 acres.
Funds were made available
Thursday, July 17, but farm-
ers can immediately start sub-
mitting applications through
their local Soil and Water
Conservation District ofce.
Farmers that have already
used these practices on their
farm and are ineligible for
this funding are still encour-
aged to visit their local Soil
and Water Conservation Dis-
trict ofce to discuss other
cost share funding that may
be available.
By allowing farmers to
try new practices on a limited
number of acres at a reduced
cost we want to showcase the
benets of these practices and
encourage farmers to incor-
porate them into their opera-
tion, Northey said.
The Iowa Department of
Agriculture and Land Stew-
ardship received $4.4 million
for the Iowa Water Quality
Initiative in scal year 2015.
These funds will allow the
Iowa Department of Agricul-
ture and Land Stewardship
to continue to encourage the
broad adoption of water qual-
ity practices through state-
wide cost share assistance.
Last year in just two weeks
over 1,000 farmers signed up
for cost share funding to help
implement new nutrient re-
duction practices on 100,000
acres. The state provided $2.8
million in cost share funding
to help farmers try a water
quality practice for the rst
time and Iowa farmers pro-
vided at least another $2.8
million to support these water
quality practices.

Letter to the Editor
by STATE REPRESENTATIVE
Patti Ruff
State House
from the
News
... that I had occasion Sun-
day to travel through several
miles of Allamakee and
Clayton counties, and was
very impressed by the corn
and soybean fields I saw.
The tall, dark green corn was
tasseling in many fields, with
receptive ear silks awaiting.
Most soybeans had canopied
and thus fields showed solid
dark green.
In all, the crops look ex-
cellent. But I was reminded
of the story about the Iowa
State University agronomist
who was invited to appraise
farm crops one year. Well,
I have good news and bad
news, he said. The good
news is that the corn and
bean fields look like they
could produce a record crop.
But thats also the bad news,
because a record crop will
mean lower prices for corn
and beans!
A radio announcer this
morning hauled out the old
cliche that with hot nights,
you can hear the corn
grow. Judging by the fields
I saw, its been noisy in the
country a lot this year.
Speaking of farm situa-
tions, it is interesting to see
the battle between the ad-
ministrations Environmen-
tal Protection Agency and
farm organizations. Project-
ed rules would seem to give
the EPA the power to nation-
alize farming practices, much
as the administration already
has nationalized medical, fi-
nancial, insurance and auto-
motive industries.
There used to be a saying
that if someone spit into the
Upper Iowa River upstream,
two days later the river would
be at flood stage at the Ga-
lena Bridge. Under the pro-
posed EPA rules, the spitter
might face a fine.
Speaking of the adminis-
tration... well, Shakespeare
wrote something to the effect
that he who steals my purse,
steals trash, but he who steals
my name steals the very heart
of me. But the snarkiness
which seeped into me after
36 years of dealing with the
public at its best and worst
prompts me to comment on
the name of the current press
secretary for the administra-
tion, Josh Earnest. Doesnt
that sort of rank up there with
the dentist, Dr. Payne, or the
famous law firm of Dewey,
Cheatem and Howe?
Anyway, when the press
secretary searched around
and finally came up with the
word tranquility when de-
scribing the presidents suc-
cesses in world affairs, the
similarity jumped at me. He
said the president was re-
sponsible for the tranquil-
And then I wrote ...
by Dick Schilling, Editor Emeritus
Support for opting out of smart meters
ity that exists, which begged
the question of where in the
ever lovin blue eyed world
are things tranquil?
Surely, someone in the
press corps must have been
thinking what I was thinking.
Surely you are joshing? Are
you being earnest?
Admittedly, its tough
speaking without benefit
of script or teleprompter. A
Fox reporter this morning
was talking about the size of
some of the tunnels the Israe-
lis are finding in Gaza. He
mentioned the width in inch-
es, then added that some
of them are up to half a foot
long. One suspects he meant
half a mile.
And finally, with all the
new Latinos to be educated
in the nations schools, there
will certainly be need for
more English as a second
language teachers. A diffi-
cult job considering the vaga-
ries of the English language,
which continue sometimes
to confound even those of us
born in the USA. Thought
about that this morning when
listening to a sports show de-
scribing leagues, like the Big
Ten, which has twelve mem-
bers, and the big 12, which
has ten members. Care to try
to explain that to a nine-year-
old Honduran soccer player?

Word for
Word
Iowa has always been
known for our world class
education system. Over the
last few years, weve worked
together to improve our
schools and make sure every
kid graduates with the skills
needed to land a good job
in todays global economy.
However, Iowa is facing a
severe skilled worker short-
age and weve got to step up
our efforts to help Iowans up-
grade their skills.
The facts are compel-
ling. Right now, we have too
many workers who are under-
skilled with just a high school
diploma or below. Just under
20% of Iowa jobs need low
skill workers, but 38% of our
workforce has just those ba-
sic skills.
In Iowa, about 50% of
jobs are middle-skilled jobs,
which require some training
beyond high school but less
than a four year college de-
gree. However, only 33% of
Iowas workforce is qualied
for these middle-skilled jobs.
Thats why weve focused
our efforts the last few years
on building our skilled work-
force. Weve expanded job
training at community col-
leges and apprenticeship pro-
grams. We also created new
grants to help under-skilled
workers get the job training
they need to land a good job.
Our skilled worker short-
age problem wont be xed
overnight, but its something
we have to start working on
now. If employers cant nd
qualied workers here in
Iowa, theyll go somewhere
else and Iowans will be left
with fewer opportunities.
Its our job to make sure that
doesnt happen.
I look forward to hearing
your thoughts on this or any
other issues. Please feel free
to contact me anytime at Pat-
ti.Ruff@legis.iowa.gov.
Just the other
day I was con-
templating prepa-
rations for the
ecumenical wor-
ship we have in
Lansing for Fish
Days. I thought
of worshipping
on the Fish Days
grounds in a tent
with the distrac-
tions of the world
all around us, and
yet those very
distractions are
creations of our Heavenly
Father. Why dont we spend
more time gathered to wor-
ship in the open? I know that
it is not always practical from
a weather standpoint, but why
not at other times?
Granted I know more than
a few people who claim to
worship God outdoors, and
that is why they miss meeting
with the gathered community,
but I have a little trouble ac-
cepting a prayer for a hole-
in-one, a monster sized sh,
or the perfect shot to be wor-
ship of God. Those prayers
seem to me to be more like
my three-year-old grandson
asking for a cookie before
dinner. The Thank God that
might follow receiving one of
those things could be praise
but then the praise
becomes condi-
tional on God giv-
ing us something
rst. After receiv-
ing such a gift we
usually take all
the credit when
telling about the
event to another.
Meeting in
a group to sing
hymns and give
lip service to
prayers in the
connes of a
building does not necessarily
make worship either. I know
a lot of people who are satis-
ed with making an appear-
ance at church as long as the
seat is not too uncomfortable
and the pastor doesnt get too
windy.
The very rst sermon I
gave was as a candidate for
pastoral ministry and lasted
for about ve minutes. The
congregation of that little
church wanted to know if I
could become their pastor
immediately. Flattered as I
was with the offer the rea-
son they gave for such an of-
fer was disheartening: With
sermons like that, you would
never make us late for din-
ner! Since that day I have
made it my personal goal to

We wish to express our sincere gratitude to this community
for your continued and unwavering support through Trevors
spinal surgery, rehabilitation and ongoing physical thera-
py. Thank you to the many local businesses, organizations
and individuals who stepped forward, unprompted, to offer
support to us in ways that we did not even realize we would
need. Thank you to all of you who have offered your words
of encouragement and have lifted Trevor and our family up
in your prayers. We know that this support has been and will
continue to be a key factor in Trevors successful surgery and
rehabilitation. It was just two months before Trevor was born
that life circumstances brought our family back to Waukon.
We can see now that this move placed us exactly where we
were intended to be, so that we would have the support that
we needed to do the very best that we can for our little boy.
It feels almost impossible to put into words the many ways in
which our lives have been touched through this experience.
We are forever grateful for the many incredible examples of
humanity and community that we have been shown, and we
can only hope to be able to do justice to future opportunities
to pay it all forward the best that we can.

the Wexford choir for the beautiful funeral service. Thank
you to the parish for helping with grave digging and to the
Wexford ladies for the help with the meal. Special thanks

her faith-lled love for God. Let us take her example and

be in true worship to God.
What then makes up true
worship for me? For one
thing, true worship is focused
on God and not on me. God
tells us in the Ten Command-
ments that we are not to wor-
ship anyone or anything be-
fore God. Whether Im in a
building sitting in a pew or
outside sitting on the grass,
the focus is on God. The
prayers and songs speak to
Gods power and actions not
mine. If I refer to myself it is
acknowledging that without
God I can do nothing good
and it is by God that I am
blessed.
Another thing that is part
of true worship is that it takes
place when two or more are
gathered for worship. Jesus
said where two or more
are gathered I am there with
them. In all religions some-
thing is used to symbolize the
deity worshipped. Usually it
is something man made that
resembles the power of the
deity. Fortunately for us, we
are created in Gods image
and by joining together we
need no graven images to
worship.
There are many other
things we have added into
worship to make it what it is
today but in my opinion these
two are essential and every-
thing else enriches the expe-
rience.
So back to my rst ques-
tion why dont we spend
more time gathered to wor-
ship in the open? Are we
afraid to show others that
we are praising God? Are we
afraid to invite others to join
us in worship? Maybe we just
forgot what worship really is.
Consider how you might
truly worship God as you en-
joy your Sabbath.
Blessings in the name of
Christ Jesus,
Rev. Kevin Smith
To the Editor:
I fully support opting out
of smart meters and highly
recommend anyone and ev-
eryone to do so. There are
some communities where
residents are not charged
more for doing this. In real-
ity, this is the right thing to
do. Why should there be an
extra charge for not wanting
a hazard on their property?
When you stop and think
about it, the company should
be charged extra for placing
a hazard on someones prop-
erty. Thats the way it goes
with every other kind of haz-
ard. You are charged extra for
things that pose a hazard over
those things that do not pose
a hazard.
Smart meters are regularly
emitting and receiving signals
by way of wireless radiation,
which is a health and envi-
ronmental hazard. They also
contain toxic chemicals such
as lead, cadmium, hexavalent
chromium, beryllium, tan-
talum, arsenic, copper, and
more, again making them
a health and environmental
hazard. Many of these toxic
chemicals are also used in the
portable wireless gadgets that
we carry with us everyday,
which become obsolete in a
short time and then discard-
ed, adding to the tremendous
amount of toxins needing to
be disposed of.
The toxic chemicals in
these obsolete wireless de-
vices are called PBTs or Per-
sistent Bioaccumulative and
toxic chemicals that linger
in the environment for a very
long time without degrading,
multiplying their negative
effects on all biological life
with obsolete devices being
added daily at an astounding
rate.
Plus, smart meters are
prone to starting on re,
which is a life hazard. And,
yes, they are a breach of pri-
vacy, which is a personal haz-
ard.
If you have the Internet or
access to it or someone to do
it for you, check out the fol-
lowing. If not, contact me and
I will get you the information:
http://electromagnetichealth.
org/electromagnetic-health-
blog/1etter-johansson-smart-
meters/ (Smart Meters for
Smarties by William Thom-
as).
Talking about Bid Daddy,
google the following: Con-
nection between US Govern-
ment and Wireless Industry-
and the Huge Rollout of
Wi-Fi and Smart Meters.
We are still a free country,
but that freedom is in serious
jeopardy. We seem to have
lost the courage to stand up
and speak out. As Martin
Luther King, Jr. stated, Our
lives begin to end the day we
become silent about things
that matter. Has our nation
reached its end because we
have lost the courage to hold
our government and the big
corporations accountable?
When I see someone stand
up and speak out on behalf of
what is right, I highly com-
mend them for doing so. May
the rest of us join them by
standing up and speaking out
on behalf of whats right. Let
us hold our government and
the big corporations account-
able. Thank you.
