Wall Superintendent/Principal
Dennis Rieckman was the guest
speaker at the Wall Badlands Area
Chamber of Commerce meeting
held on Monday, October 15.
Rieckman gave an overview on
Initiated Measure (IM) 15. He ex-
plained the measure will add one
penny to the state sales tax, which
would raise $175 - $180 million an-
nually. The money generated from
the sales tax would be split evenly
between K - 12 public education
and Medicaid. He went on to say
that school districts cant continue
to provide students with the qual-
ity of education at the current
funding. These additional funds
would be provided to school dis-
tricts based on enrollment with
school boards having control as to
where the funding should be spent
in their school district. Rieckman
wanted the chamber to know he
was not at the meeting to sway any
ones mind on how they should vote
on this issue.
Rieckman then gave an update
on school happenings. Volleyball
and football are beginning to wrap-
up and the National Honor Society
will be hosting a blood drive on
Monday, November 5 at the school.
Nominating Committee report
was given by Mike Huether. Jackie
Heathershaw, Donna Curr and
Dawn Hilgenkamps seats are up
for re-election this year. The three
will run again and no other nomi-
nations have been made so far. If
anyone is interested in running at
large, petitions need to be turned in
by Monday, October 29.
Mayor Dave Hahn announced
the next council meeting will be
held on Thursday, November 8 at
6:30 p.m. at the Wall Community
Center meeting room. If anyone
would like to vote early they need
to stop in at the Wall City Office
and visit with Finance Officer Car-
olynn Anderson.
Golden West reported they held
their annual meeting and Stuart
Marty was elected to their board.
Rod Renner has stepped down as
president and Jeff Nielsen was
elected as the new president.
Nadia Eisenbraun with the For-
est Service related their visitation

nations are now available at the
Wall Clinic.
Carol Hoffman with the Wall
Country Cupboard said they are in
need of oatmeal and soup.
Black Hills Badlands and Lakes
will be having their annual meet-
ing on Thursday, October 25 at
3:00 p.m. at Crazy Horse Memo-
rial.

and hired two girls to do the water-
ing. South Boulevard plots will be
available next spring if anyone is
interested in planting and caring
for a plot. Christmas decorations

The most critical need we have
is getting locals to volunteer to be-
come EMTs was the main focus of
the Wall Ambulance meeting held
on Monday, October 15.
Board members with the help of
Dick Johnson reviewed several ads
that had been placed in the Pen-
nington County Courant. The ad
will run for the next two weeks
and will include Critical need of
EMTs in the wording.
By-laws for the district were re-
examined. Carolynn Anderson had
made a few changes to different ar-
ticles within the by-laws. The
board reviewed these changes and
elected to strike some of the them
and agreed to accept the other
changes. Anderson will make the
appropriate changes and resend
them to the board for their review.
Due to state statute the board is
required to hold an election at
their first quarterly meeting to be
held in February or March of 2013.
Carolynn Anderson feels there
shouldnt be an election as board
members havent completed their
full term yet. Norman Eisenbraun
and Jem Kjerstad were under the
impression that they would only
hold their seat until the first elec-
tion. It was decided there would be
an election in 2013 and Eisen-
brauns position would be filled for
a three year term. Kjerstads posi-
tion would also be up but that seat
would be filled with someone to
complete a three year term with

Rapid City Journal staff
A Wisconsin man must pay
$10,000 in fines and restitution for
illegally killing a buffalo in Bad-
lands National Park.
Some South Dakotans aren't
sure that's enough.
Jeff Olson, a Rapid City dentist
and chairman of the state Game,
Fish & Parks Commission, said he
wished that 42-year-old Joseph
Wilmet of Green Bay had to serve
some jail time along with the fine
and restitution.
"Or maybe he should be banned
from hunting for life," Olson said.
Somebody who illegally kills a
bison in a national park is a
poacher, not a hunter, Olson said.
"Please do not use 'hunter' and this
guy in the same sentence," he said.
"Real hunters don't do that."
In a guilty plea agreement an-
nounced Tuesday by U.S. Attorney
Brendan Johnson in Sioux Falls,
Wilmet admitted to details about
the incident on November 15,
2010, and agreed to one year of
probation, a $5,000 fine and
$5,000 in restitution to the park.
The details included the fact that
he shot the buffalo, also called
bison, partially butchered it in the
Wisconsin man gets $10,000 fine
for shooting buffalo in the park
field and loaded parts into a trailer
to haul out of the park.
A park ranger later found the
carcass and began an investigation
that included state Game, Fish &
Parks officers and the Pennington
County Sheriff's Office. Officers
eventually found Wilmet at a
motel in Wall after noting suspi-
cious items in a black Ford pickup
with an enclosed trailer.
The items included a rifle, spot-
light, bloody plastic wrap, bloody
saw blade and a saw. Also, blood
was dripping from the rear door of
the trailer, according to a court
document. When confronted at the
motel, Wilmet opened the trailer
and admitted the crime.
"I shot it," he said, according to
the document.
Susan Ricci of Rapid City, direc-
tor of Friends of the Badlands non-
profit park support group, said she
was shocked when she heard about
the poaching.
"To me, it's a horrendous crime
because it intrudes upon the
serenity and peace of our national
park," Ricci said. "Nothing like
this should happen in our national
parks. There are designated places
where people who want to go hunt-
ing buffalo can do that."
Ricci said she struggles to un-
derstand what impulse would lead
to such a despicable act.
"I just wonder what he was
thinking," she said. "Obviously, he
wasn't thinking. The stiffer the
sentence the better. You need a
huge deterrent so something like
this doesn't happen again."
Journal calls to Badlands Na-
tional Park on Tuesday were re-
ferred to Superintendent Eric
Brunnemann. Brunnemann didn't
immediately return a message left
on his office voice mail.
A park staffer said many person-
nel were involved in the annual
buffalo roundup there this week.
During the roundup, buffalo are
weighed, examined and tested for
disease.
only two years remaining. Then in
2014, Wally Hoffman and Elden
Helms terms would be up and
those positions would be filled for
a three year term. Then in 2015,
Anderson and the person who was
elected in 2013 to fill Kjerstads po-
sition would be up for a three year
term. So this first round with the
current board, no one in reality
will be serving the complete terms
since the district was formed in the
middle of the year.
President Hoffman has visited
with Keystone and they are not in-
terested in sharing an ambulance
director due to financial con-
straints. Hoffman will contact Hill
City to get their take on sharing a
director.
Elden Helms would like for all
the directors to go up to the ambu-
lance building and take a look
around.
Anderson asked when the board
would like to get an actual insur-
ance quote since they are close to
the 60 days out. It was decided to
wait until November 15 to get the
quote.
Anderson will also check with
the new billing service to see when
they would like to take over the
billing operation of the amublance
service.
The board will work on a Let-
ter to the Editor to be published
next week stressing the need for
community members to become
EMTs.

He shared stories, slide show pic-
tures, explained the patches on his
uniform, and passed around
Afghanistan money for all to see.
Afterwards, the students of the
Elm Springs School each recited a
patriotic poem and sang 'America'
in Shawn's honor.

Elm Springs School declares
October 17 as Shawn Harwood Day
signed up for eight more years.
He served in Iraq in 2003. He re-
turned overseas to Afghanistan for
a year long tour in 2011.
Shawn's unit is an engineering
unit. They build bridges and
roads. They also spent time tear-
ing down old army camps. He,
along with 160 other members of
the 842nd, returned home to South
Dakota the end of September.
Shawn is married to Katie and
they have a son, Emerson. Shawn
is the son of Steve and Debbie Har-
wood of Union Center. Shawn is
enjoying time home with his fam-
ily before he returns to work at the
Forest Service in Spearfish.
The Elm Springs School and
surrounding community want to
thank Shawn Harwood, the entire
842nd, and all military personnel
(current and retired) for your
time, sacrifices, and loyalty to our
country. Freedom is not free.
Thanks to you all.
New accountability system identifies top-performing schools
Twenty-three elementary and
middle schools and seven high
schools have earned top spots
under the states new accountabil-
ity system.
EXEMPLARY SCHOOLS (top
five percent of schools based on
School Performance Index scores)
Elementary/Middle
Wall Elementary, Wall School
District
High School
Wall High School, Wall School
District
As part of South Dakotas waiver
from No Child Left Behind, the
state was required to identify the
top five percent of public schools,
as well as the lowest five percent
of Title I schools, this fall. The
schools were identified, in most
cases, based on their scores on the
new School Performance Index, or
SPI, a 100-point index that encom-
passes key indicators that meas-
ure school performance.
At the elementary and middle
school level, those SPI key indica-
tors include student achievement
in math and reading on the state
assessment and attendance rates.
At the high school level, those SPI
key indicators include student
achievement in math and reading
on the state assessment, four-year
cohort graduation rate, and ACT
scores in English and math.
This is a transitional year for
the new accountability system. Ad-
ditional indicators, including aca-
demic growth, will be added to the
School Performance Index by the
2014-15 school year. Once fully im-
plemented, the department plans
to use three years of data for most
of the SPI key indicators. This cur-
rent calculation is based upon only
one year of data.
A review of the data shows that
a majority of our schools are per-
forming well, and our students are
reaching appropriate bench-
marks, said Dr. Melody Schopp,
South Dakotas secretary of educa-
tion. Kudos to those educators,
students and parents who are com-
mitted to seeing that our children
are getting the knowledge and
skills base that will see them
through life.
According to Schopp, at the ele-
mentary and middle school level,
82 percent of schools earned at
least 70 out of the 100 points pos-
sible. And at the high school level,
71 percent of schools earned at
least 70 out of the 100 points. It is
at the 70 mark that SPI scores
begin to drop rapidly.
At the lower end of the spectrum
are schools whose SPI scores rank
among the bottom five percent of
Title I schools. Under the new ac-
countability system, these schools
are considered priority schools.
The indicators are showing that
something is not working in these
schools, Schopp said. In certain
cases, the school might be serving
a unique student population that
impacts the results. But whatever
the case, its here that we, as a
state and as local communities,
need to make a concerted effort to
make a difference for these stu-
dents. We owe it to them.
The Department of Education
also has identified focus schools,
a classification that applies only to
Title I schools and considers the
performance of historically under-
performing student groups.
As part of the new accountabil-
ity system, the department will
work with Priority and Focus
schools to implement meaningful
interventions designed to improve
student outcomes.
Data for individual schools, in-
cluding points earned for the vari-
ous indicators, can be accessed at

Monthly Social Security and
Supplemental Security Income
(SSI) benefits for nearly 62 million
Americans will increase 1.7 per-
cent in 2013, the Social Security
Administration announced.
The 1.7 percent cost-of-living ad-
justment (COLA) will begin with
benefits that more than 56 million
Social Security beneficiaries re-
ceive in January 2013. Increased
payments to more than eight mil-
lion SSI beneficiaries will begin on
December 31, 2012.
Some other changes that take ef-
fect in January of each year are
based on the increase in average
wages. Based on that increase, the
maximum amount of earnings sub-
ject to the Social Security tax (tax-
Social Security announces 1.7

able maximum) will increase to
$113,700 from $110,100. Of the es-
timated 163 million workers who
will pay Social Security taxes in
2013, nearly 10 million will pay
higher taxes as a result of the in-
crease in the taxable maximum.
Information about Medicare
changes for 2013, when an-
nounced, will be available at

eficiaries, their Social Security in-
crease may be partially or com-
pletely offset by increases in
Medicare premiums.

Governor Dennis Daugaard has
extended an Executive Order to
haul overwidth baled livestock
feed until December 21, 2012, in
South Dakota.
The Executive Order states that,
upon receipt of a permit, permis-
sion is granted to move over-width
baled livestock feed not exceeding
12-feet-wide or 15-feet-high for two
hours after sunset and two hours
before sunrise. The order allows
movement of overwidth baled live-
stock feed until cessation of the
drought emergency, or no later
than December 21.
Over-width vehicles must be
equipped with flashing or rotating
white or amber warning lights on
each side of the loads widest ex-
tremity. The warning lights must
be clearly visible to motorists ap-
proaching from the front and rear.
Movement under the Executive
Order is valid only for baled live-
stock feed.
This years persistent drought
conditions have left livestock pro-
ducers across South Dakota with
inadequate feed supplies, said
South Dakota Secretary of Agricul-
ture Walt Bones. Increasing haul-
ing height and width restrictions
for baled hay will allow producers
Overwidth baled livestock feed
hauling extended 60 days in S.D.
to move feed in a more efficient
manner.
The normal size restriction on
South Dakota highway loads is 14-
feet, three-inches high and eight-
feet, six-inches wide.
Although height and width re-
strictions for baled livestock feed
have been temporarily increased
by Executive Order, several high-
ways in the state have width and
height restrictions in place be-
cause of construction or perma-
nent structures that cannot accom-
modate such large loads. Truckers
are encouraged to check their
routes ahead of time for those re-
strictions.
For information on permits, con-
tact a South Dakota port of entry
or call 800-637-3255.

Letter to the Editor:
With the recent formation of the
Ambulance District, we as Board of
Directors realize the importance of
this service. The current EMTs
have given this service numerous
hours of dedication for our commu-
nity. Without local involvement as
an EMT this service will be diffi-
cult to sustain. We want to encour-
age members of our community to
become involved and become an
EMT to keep this crucial service in
our area.
If you are interested in getting
involved with this much needed
service please attend the organiza-
tional meeting we have scheduled
for Thursday, November 1st at
7:00 p.m. It will be held at the fire
hall located at 120 fourth avenue.
Please consider becoming in-
volved.

Wear your favorite costume and
come trick-or-treat at the Library
on Halloween, Wednesday, October
31! We have spooky books for all
ages and treats for all our favorite
patrons!
Last week was Teen Read Week
and it reminds us that there are
lots of new teen books at the Li-
brary that arent just for teens. I
began reading kids books so I
could have conversations and
make connections with my chil-
dren and my students about books
they were reading. Let me tell you,
there are a whole new set of chil-
drens book than when we were in
school! New authors have written
some tremendous stories that can
be enjoyed by all, not just by kids.
When I was a teacher, the best
Wall Community Library
part of our day was just after lunch
when the entire class would settle
down on the carpet and listen to a
chapter or two of our current class
book. It was just for fun, no tests
on those books, but often it
sparked questions and discussions
among the class. Perhaps one of
my favorite discussions was when
the class agreed that Harry Potter
and the Sorcerers Stone was bet-
ter as a book than as a movie be-
cause the movie left out too much
important stuff.
At any rate, come by and try out
some of our new teen and chil-
drens books. It may kindle a dis-
cussion with your child, grand-
child, or great grandchild. Youll be
glad you did, and it just might in-
troduce you to a new favorite au-
thor!
Dirt fills the air at the Roberts Prairie Dog town in the Badlands
National Park, Wednesday, October 17. The dirt was so thick that
headlights had to be turned on and drivers had to slow down to
blizzard driving conditions. The prairie dogs have eatten the
ground bare so there was nothing to catch the dirt as winds blew
in excess of 30 mph. The park had closed Rim Road as the dirt
blowing in the air made driving conditions impossible. Makes
one think this is what it was like in the Dirty Thirties.

Volunteer opportunities at the
Country Cupboard Food Pantry
Volunteer opportunities are
abundant at the Country Cup-
board Food Pantry (CCFP). Carol
Hoffman, President, requested of
the board to find additional volun-
teers at the October Board of Di-
rectors meeting.
The most visible volunteer is
there during the hours of opera-
tion. Those hours are every
Wednesday from 1:00 - 4:00 and
every third Saturday from 9:00 -
11:00.
Checking, sorting and stocking
donated food items can be done
anytime. Each donated items is in-
spected for food safety, expiration
date and free of damage to the
package. Donated food is received
on a sporadic basis but needs to be
done about once a week. This is a
great opportunity for someone who
works during business hours and
would like to help at the pantry.
Shopping at the Food Bank in
Rapid City is a very different vol-
unteer opportunity. This must be
done during the Food Bank hours
which are Monday through Friday
during the day. Volunteers work
closely with the Country Pantry
Board so they know what to look
for. A reliable vehicle is necessary.
The pantry appliances need to
be cleaned at least once a year if
not twice. This past summer two
college students accomplished this
task in addition to sanitizing all
the shelves in the pantry. The
cleaning of appliances goes a long
ways in maintaining this equip-
ment to needed Health Depart-
ment standards.
Recruitment, training and coor-
dination of volunteers that serve
the clients is currently the greatest
need right now. As the pantry
moves toward its three years of
service to the community a new
flush of volunteers are needed in
this capacity.
Food drives are vital to the
pantry. Coordination of food drives
and follow up on sorting and shelv-
ing the donations is needed. There
is much flexibility in this volunteer
opportunity.
You can help support your food
pantry and the community in so
many ways. Please contact Carol
Hoffman for additional informa-
tion.

Excavation work of
Slender as a whippet, the Sioux
Horse Effigy is one of the most rec-
ognizable and cherished artifacts
in the South Dakota State Histor-
ical Societys Museum at the Cul-
tural Heritage Center in Pierre.
The effigy is the logo of the
SDSHS.
Most horse dance sticks carved
by the Lakota are of the front half
of a horse on a stick that could be
carried in a dance. The Sioux
Horse Effigy is considered a mas-
terpiece of American Indian sculp-
ture because it is the complete fig-
ure of a horse. Carved out of wood,
the three-foot-long dance stick is
enhanced by a mane and tail of
real horsehair, with reins and a
bridle made of leather.
It is believed that the Sioux
Horse Effigy was carved by a war-
rior in the late 1800s to honor a
brave horse that was injured or
killed in battle. The sides of the ef-
figy are riddled with holes that
suggest bullet wounds, with red
paint suggesting blood seeming to
seep from the wounds. Its ears are
slanted backward, symbolizing
fear and pain. The horse sculp-
tures elongated body and forward
leaping motion suggest a leap from
life to death.
The Sioux Horse Effigy was col-
lected by Mary Collins, a mission-
ary to the Lakota.
Collins was born in 1846 in Illi-
nois and grew up in Keokuk, Iowa.
She received a Master of Arts de-
gree from Ripon College in Wiscon-
sin. After three years of teaching
in Keokuk, she decided to become
a Congregational missionary and
was sent to Dakota Territory to be
a missionary to the Lakota.
She arrived at Oahe Mission, lo-
cated about 12 miles north of what
is now Pierre, on Nov. 10, 1875.
Ten years later, Collins moved to
the Little Eagle Station on the
The Sioux Horse Effigy and
Missionary Mary Collins
Grand River, located about 20
miles west of Mobridge. Her home
made of logs was used for both
school and church.
Collins learned the Lakota lan-
guage and ways. Her knowledge of
medicine resulted in her becoming
known as a medicine woman and
gave her a status that she might
not otherwise have had. Collins be-
came friends with Sitting Bull and
tried to convince the Lakota to give
up the Ghost Dance. She possessed
a sense of humor and was a prac-
tical woman. She taught American
Indians how to live well in this
present life, how to serve God, how
to build homes and how to become
self-supporting. By all accounts,
Collins was respected by the
Lakota.
I had dedicated my life to this
work little knowing how much of
hard physical labor and drudgery
were required of a missionary in
our own land, Collins wrote. I
had been in school all my life ei-
ther as a student or a teacher, so
that I was not very well fitted for
hardships, and had I not felt that
everything I did was for the uplift
of the Indians I could not have
held out.
Nonetheless, she described her
years to service to the American
Indians as years of delight.
Collins retired from the ministry
in 1910 and moved back to
Keokuk. There, she made the leap
from life into death on May 25,
1920. Many of her correspon-
dences, including her autobiogra-
phy, are contained in the SDSHS
Archives.

From the desk of Superintendent Dennis Rieckman
I want to share some additional
good news we received this week
concerning our students and
specifically the high school. The
Wall High School has been listed
as an exemplary school by the De-
partment of Education. The high
school is one of seven high schools
(top five percent) of the high
schools in S.D. We are listed sixth
on the list. This ranking was based
on student achievement, gradua-
tion rate, and college and career
readiness (ACT scores).
Our Middle School also did ex-
ceptionally well; they were not in
the top five percent, but were in
the top 10 percent. We had re-
ceived noticed earlier the elemen-
tary school was listed as an exem-
plary school. Congratulations to all
the students and staff for receiving
these distinguished honors. I chal-
lenge the students and staff to
maintain and improve on these re-
sults. It will be tough, but I know
we can get it done.
The election is coming up in a
couple of weeks and there are two
items on the ballot which have an
impact on education. Initiated
Measure 15 and Referred Law 16
are the two ballot issues. As the
superintendent of the local dis-
trict, I feel it is appropriate for me
to share my views on these two im-
portant issues. These are my views
and they may be shared by others,
but in no way are the official po-
sition of the school district.
Initiative Measure 15 is an act
which would add a one cent sales
tax to all items currently having a
sales tax of four percent. It is ex-
pected to raise an estimated 180
million annually. The money will
be split between K-12 education
and Medicaid. The 90 million
going to education would be dis-
tributed back to the school dis-
tricts at about $700.00 per stu-
dent. This would mean an addi-
tional $169,000 in revenue for our
district. This money would be used
to offset the deficit spending we
have been doing and general oper-
ations within the district. We have
been using Impact Aid money to
balance our budget and we are for-
tunate to have this money avail-
able to us. If we
did not have the Impact Aid money
we would need to do what a lot of
districts have had to do. The
school district would need to look
at an opt-out asking our local prop-
erty taxpayers to pay more. The
one cent sales tax will help prevent
this from happening and I feel
makes it a more equitable way to
fund education than putting more
burden on local landowners.
The other part of IM 15 is the
Medicaid piece. In S.D. one of
seven people receives their health-
care through Medicaid and nearly
half of our children born in S.D.
qualify for Medicaid.
The cuts to Medicaid have made
it difficult for providers to accept
these patients. When these pa-
tients are denied primary care
they often end up in the emergency
room which drives up the cost of
healthcare and insurance. It is a
struggle already for rural health
facilities to provide a needed and
cost effective service. IM 15 will
help health services to continue
serving the rural communities.
I firmly believe IM 15 is the best
way to restore the funding cuts
and move forward with educa-
tional funding. I know any new tax
is a hard sell, but this measure will
help kids and people with disabili-
ties for many years. There are
measures written in the law to
safeguard the funding and to make
sure it is received by the schools
unlike the video lottery money. I
respectfully ask you to consider
voting YES on IM 15.
Referred Law 16 was placed on
the ballot by a group of teachers
and education supporters gather-
ing enough signatures to do so.
This was the Governors education
bill known as HB 1234.
My biggest concern with this bill
has always been how fast this bill
was passed and the local control it
takes away from school districts.
This bill was change dramati-
cally during the session with a lot
of compromises made before the
final passage. Proponents can say
we have local control over how we
would implement these ideas, but
it still comes down to being state
directed changes. The local school
boards are elected by local taxpay-
ers to make the necessary deci-
sions deem best for our school.
Referred Law 16 has five main
parts to it. The five parts are
teacher tenure, merit pay, bonus
pay for Math and Science teachers,
scholarship program for students
going into Math and Science, and
a standardize evaluation system.
These ideas all have merit and
will likely be implemented at some
level in the future by local choice.
It should be left to the local school
districts to determine what fits
best for their district. I believe HB
1234 was well intentioned, but the
way it was introduced (last
minute) and passed (strong arm-
ing) by one vote has left a lot of
unanswered questions and con-
cerns. I respectfully ask you to con-
sider voting NO on Referred Law
16.
If you have any questions or con-
cerns on these two issues please
contact me at (605) 279-2156 or e-
mail me at dennis.rieckman@k12.

Please exercise your right to
vote and vote on November 6th.

cons of each of the proposed meas-
ures or other amendments on the
ballot to help make an informed

The Pasture, Rangeland & Forage - Rainfall Index (PRF-RI) is based on NOAA data and uses an approximate
12x12 mile grid. Producers must select at least two, two-month time periods in which precipitation is important
for the growth and production of forage/pasture. These time periods are called index intervals. Insurance pay-
ments to the producer suffering a loss are calculated based on the deviation from normal precipitation with
the grid and index intervals selected. This insurance coverage is for a single peril - lack of precipitation.

Gathered by Frances Poste
Friday, the 19th, after two days
of terrible wind some of the quil-
ters from First Lutheran Church,
Bonna Fortune, Mildred Harnisch
and Violet Smoot, took quilts,
blankets and sheets to the WAVI
and Corner Stone in Rapid City.
Also some quilts to the V.A. in
Sturgis. The quilts were made in
patriotic material so went to the
V.A. Hospice House. Our thanks to
the Veterans. We later met Aldena
and Wayne Haerer at their apart-
ment in Sturgis. It was good to see
them. Aldena gave us a tour of the
complex, a very nice place. We ate
pizza for lunch in Sturgis, came
back to Rapid City to shop for more
material to make more quilts and
then returned home in time for the
football game with Lyman Co. Way
to Go Eagles!! We had a very busy
but fun day!
Steve and Gayle Eisenbraun
spent the weekend in Mitchell,
S.D., with Travis, Beth and Isaiah.
Norman and Lorraine Fauske
returned Friday after traveling to
Novato, Calif., to visit daughter
Lisa and family. Nice to spend time
spoiling the grandsons. A bonus to
the travels, to and from Calif., was
time spent in Elko, Nev. with Anna
and Don Brown. Spectacular fall
colors, nice sunny days, safe trav-
els, good health, and spending
time with family, our eighteen
days made for a memorable vaca-
tion.
Senior Citizens potluck supper
had around 20 people blow in
last Thursday evening. So all con-
sidered, we had a nice group and
some stayed to play penny Bingo
with Carol Hahn calling the num-
bers. Potluck supper is always the
evening of the third Thursday of
the month. Just show up.
Esther and Gerald Wolford went
to Howard, S.D., to visit Amy and
Terry Beers. They drove down on
Sunday, the 14th, and returned on
Wednesday, driving into that terri-
ble wind.
A while back the Wall Eagles
football team had a game called
because of lightning and finished
it the following week. Last Thurs-
days game was postponed until
the next day, Friday, because of
WIND. Can you imagine kicking
or throwing the ball and having it
end up in the Badlands?! Oh, and
Eagles won the game!
Last Sunday, October 14th, Nor-
man and Betty Klingbile had a
small family gathering. They
hosted dinner for Lyndell and Jill
Petersen and Buster and Amy
Estes, siblings of Betty.
Sydney Lennox and Wanda
Swan of Kadoka, were on their
way to Rapid City to keep appoint-
ments last Thursday. They stopped
in Wall for coffee and doughnuts to
be fortified to tackle that horrible
wind.
Dolly Blucher, who now resides
in Philip, came to Wall, Sunday,
with her daughter and son-in-law
of California, Lavonne and Jim, to
eat and visit with friends from
Wall. It was nice to see them.
Just a reminder Theme
meal at Prairie Village will be at
noon on October 30th - not hard to
guess that theme! Menu consists of
Swiss steak with tomatoes and
onions, baked potato, Oriental veg-
gies, fruit and cake.
Peggy Nielson of Rapid City, and
Kirby Keyser met Tyler Keyser at
Peggys family farm near Turlare,
S.D., for pheasant hunting on Sat-
urday. On Sunday, Tyler and Kirby
met with Rick Baton, a good friend
of Kirbys, and his wife Arlene for
pheasant hunting at Arlenes fam-
ily farm near St. Lawrence, S.D.
They reported very good hunting.
The Governor has ordered our
flag to be flown half-staff this week
in honor of South Dakota States-
man George McGovern. McGovern
passed away early Sunday morn-
ing at the age of 90.
Anita Peterson of Philip, took
Edith Paulsen to Rapid City on
Tuesday of last week. Edith said
she didnt have any appointments
but just wanted to go. Sounds like
a winner to me appointments
take up shopping time!
Halloween is next Wednesday.
Keep your eyes open for all the lit-
tle ghosts and goblins keep
them safe.
Merlin and Mary Jane Doyle
went to Lawler, Iowa, on Friday
and returned on Monday. They vis-
ited their grandson, Jeramy Croell
and his friend Tasha Tonne. They
enjoyed visiting the Amanas while
there.
Pastor Darwin Kopfmann had
the joy of baptizing his grand-
daughter, Carley Jean Kopfmann,
at Mitchell on Sunday.
Betty Pederson is hospitalized in
Chamberlain. We wish her well.
The wind two days last week
was the worst we have experienced
for a long time. Good thing it
wasnt blowing snow. Saturday
was a beautiful day things are
to cool off so maybe it was our last
day in the 70s for this year.
Have a good week!

busy time of the year as with any-
time to keep up with the work on
the farm and ranch, calving, plant-
ing, haying, combining. It seems
each job has its season. Oops,
branding, working farm ground,
breaking horses to ride and etc.
Lucille Murnane and Mary
Paulsen recently drove to Colorado
Springs, Colo., to visit Mike and

Well people, this is it for this
time and I might add very unsuc-
cessful especially with kids in
school and all the sports. I feel I
must give this up as it is so unrea-
sonable to call especially with no
extended service. I have so enjoyed
and its not a happy time to quite.
Those of you that have been so
helpful and cooperative have made
it a special way to keep in touch.

What a week! Beautiful fall days
Sunday, Monday and Tuesday.
Well, you know what happened in
the early hours of Wednesday. I
thought for sure wed be blown at
least to Kansas! Even though I
greatly admire the Wonderful
Wizard of Oz it just didnt seem
like the right time to go soaring off
for a visit.
Lloyd had to make a trip Thurs-
day to Ft. Meade. That was an ad-
venture! He still is bothered with
the vertigo and doctors are trying
to find answers. It is a little frus-
trating for him but he does (most
of the time) keep a sense of humor.
Barb Crawfords mother, Iva
Eisenbraun, had knee surgery last
week. In July, Mrs. Eisenbraun
had surgery on her other knee.
That went so well for her she de-
cided to have the second knee done
so she would be able to get back to
gardening next summer. Iva is 93,
is in good health and ready to get
to work! She will spend some time
at West Hills Village to get the
therapy going and shell be good as
new. Best wishes for a speedy re-
covery.
Wasta Fire Department was
called to Rusty and Angela Lytles
place, Thursday. Two hundred to
two hundred-fifty bales were con-
sumed. The fire was believe to
have begun by spontaneous com-
bustion and then the extreme wind
just whipped it along. It was a long
day for firefighters and the Lytles.
That is a serious loss.
Madi Grenstiner has begun bas-
ketball practice with the Eagles
junior high team. Madi enjoys the
sport and is in the band as well.
Ash Grenstiner has been in-
volved with jujitsu for several
years and is now among the
wounded warriors. She explained
that the accident happened as she
and another student were working
on a move and however these
things happen, it was as though
her wrist popped. Sounds like a
very painful situation, but Ash just
grinned about it and said she
would be wearing the wrist brace
for a while. Ash also enjoys music.
A shower for Jamy Williams and
baby Mavrick was given by the
ladies of the Methodist church in
Wasta. Mavis Jeppesen and her
daughter, Skyla, put on a very nice
party Saturday at 11:00. Friends
and family were there to share in
the good array of salads, silly
games and conversation. It was es-
pecially nice to meet Jamys
mother and sisters. Of course the
spot light was on Mavrick! He pa-
tiently tolerated the passing
around, slept through most of it,
woke up briefly to eat and look
around. A very sweet baby boy.
Anna Lee Humphrey had a visit
from daughter Peggy from Gillette,
Wyo., and she and Carl joined
Anna Lee for Saturday dinner.
Anna Lee maintains her great at-
titude and continues to do all she
can for herself.

The one hundred twenty disciples in the Upper
Room had, of course, been much like any other
group of believers in history. They had not all been
equally spiritual or devoted, or faithful. Some had
been more so than others, and where some had ex-
celled in one virtue, others had excelled in another.
Yet now they were all FILLED with the Spirit, from
the least to the greatest of them.
The thoughtful student of Scripture will, of course,
ask why all these believers were now filled with the
Holy Spirit. Was it, perhaps, because they, as a
group, had been more godly than those before
them? The gospel records prove that this is not so.
Peter boasted, Thomas doubted, James and John
sought personal gain, and when our Lord was taken
prisoner, they all forsook Him and fled.
Was it then because they had prayed long enough
or earnestly enough for the Spirit to come upon them
and take control? No; they had been instructed to go
to Jerusalem, not to pray for the Holy Spirit to come,
as some suppose, but to wait for the [fulfillment of
the] promise regarding the Spirit (Acts 1: 4,5) and
right here is the answer to our question.
The believers at Pentecost were filled with the
Holy Spirit, not because they had prayed long or
earnestly enough for the Spirit to come, but because
the time had arrived for the fulfillment of the divine
promise. The Old Testament prophets and the Lord
Jesus had promised that the Holy Spirit should some
day come to take control of Gods people (Ezek.
36:26,27), and that day had come. They were filled
with the Spirit because God, according to His prom-
ise, had baptized them with the Spirit (Acts 1:5).

Senator George S. McGovern_______________________
and could retrieve names and de-
tails from memory with ease.
In 1956, George won a seat in
the US House of Representatives.
There he served two terms, lost
a run for the US Senate in 1960,
but won a Senate seat in 1962
after having served as the first Ex-
ecutive Director of President John
F. Kennedy's new Food For Peace
program, a formative experience
which allowed George peaceably
shift government power and Amer-
ican food resources towards hun-
gry people.
After a run for the Democratic
Party presidential nomination in
1968 to help hold together the-as-
sassinated Sen. Robert Kennedy's
delegates, George worked to re-
form party rules so the nominating
procedure would be more trans-
parent and accessible.
And during a drawn-out pri-
mary campaign, George won the
Democratic Party's nomination for
Presidential in 1972, a race he led
with unprecedented grassroots
support under the banner "Come
Home, America", for peace in Viet-
nam and reconciliation at home.
It was a race he did not win
against President Richard Nixon,
but the campaign's integrity re-
stored hope to a dispirited public
and established a principled model
for national campaigns to come,
validated by the resignation of a
scandal-ridden President Nixon
two years later.
George served three terms in the
Senate, until January, 1981, where
he contributed substantially to a
series of comprehensive farm bills
and chaired the new US Senate
Special Committee on Nutrition
and Human Needs.
After his Senate career, George
worked on Middle East peace, and
further focused on child nutrition
through two appointed positions:
US Ambassador to the UN Agen-
cies for Food and Agriculture, and,
separately, as UN Global Ambas-
sador to the World Food Program.
He also co-founded a world-wide
school lunch program with long-
time friend Bob Dole, the former
GOP Senator from Kansas.
For these decades of work en-
riching the lives of countless fami-
lies and children around the globe,
George was awarded the Presiden-
tial Medal of Freedom, our coun-
try's highest civilian distinction,
by President Bill Clinton, in 2001.
In more recent years, George
stayed intricately connected to
South, national and international
issues. He lectured about policy
and politics on campuses here and
abroad. He would work, as was hit
his habit, on just a few hours of
sleep, and frequently asked arriv-
ing visitors for their input on a
fresh draft of an op-ed or magazine
piece he had been crafting on a yel-
low pad.
He even finished last year, at
age 89, the 14th book he had writ-
ten, co-authored or edited, What
It Means To Be A Democrat, and
conducted book signings in several
states also for a recent biography
of President Abraham Lincoln.
No portrait of George would be
complete without remembering
the succession of outrageously af-
fectionate and outsized Newfound-
land dogs George and Eleanor nur-
tured and cherished.
He loved going for a walk across
the DWU campus, or on a drive to
Lake Mitchell, or to a night at the
movies. He enjoyed dinners at
Chef Louie's and kept everyone
amused and amazed with stories
and anecdotes from his youth, the
campaign trail, or the Senate floor.
And he kept his childhood and
life-long faith with his beloved St.
Louis Cardinals, expressing no
surprise at their last-minute qual-
ification for this year's playoffs,
just as they had done last year on
their way to a World Series cham-
pionship run that George had fol-
lowed with inning-by-inning de-
light.
More than anything, George
adored Eleanor, their grown chil-
dren, and 10 grandchildren and
eight great-grandchildren, was en-
gaged in their interests, schooling
and careers, and generously
helped with advice, encourage-
ment and support.
George McGovern lived an ex-
ceptional public and private life of
more than 90 years with an un-
common energy, adherence to
ideals, thirst for knowledge and a
consuming dedication to others.
George rarely raised his voice in
anger, but always raised the level
of discourse and achievement
around him.
He didn't live for confrontation,
but risked his life in the greatest
struggle of the century to defeat
evil on a grand scale, yet never
bragged about his personal war-
time achievements.
Instead, he used that experience
instead as a working, life-long
foundation for a more peaceful,
constructive, and forgiving world.
We who knew and loved him will
remember his singular dedication
to a life that made a difference.
We resolve to honor George's
spirit by emulating his example.
Public viewing will be held from
1:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Thursday,
October 25, 2012, at First United
Methodist Church, 401 S. Spring
Avenue, Sioux Falls, SD, with the
family present to greet friends
from 5:00 to 6:00 p.m. A 6:30 p.m.
Prayer Service will follow the visi-
tation at the church.
Funeral Services will begin at
1:00 p.m., Friday, October 26th, at
the Mary Sommervold Hall at the
Washington Pavilion of Arts and
Science, 301 S. Main Avenue,
Sioux Falls, SD.
Private burial will take place at
Rock Creek Cemetery, Washing-
ton, DC, at a later date.
Miller Funeral Home, Sioux
Falls, SD, is in charge of funeral
arrangements.
George Stanley McGovern, hus-
band and father, teacher and
politician, proud South Dakota De-
mocrat, author and advocate for
the poor, lived a life of service
through decades of American his-
tory he also strongly influenced.
Born in Avon, South Dakota on
July 19, 1922 to the Rev. Joseph
and Frances McLean McGovern,
George left Dakota Wesleyan Uni-
versity DWU), in Mitchell, where
he excelled in debate, to join the
Army-Air Force in 1943.
That same year, on Halloween
Day, he married Eleanor Stege-
berg, a fellow DWU student who
had grown up on a Woonsocket
farm and got to know George after
having beaten him in a student de-
bate competition. They would
eventually have five children, Ann,
Susan, Teresa, Steven and Mary,
and a 63-year marriage.
A B-24 pilot at the age of just 22
and assigned to a bomber group in
Italy, George flew 35 combat mis-
sions across Europe, safely-landed
his damaged plane on several oc-
casions and was discharged at the
war's end as a First Lieutenant
having won the Distinguished Fly-
ing Cross with three Oak Clusters.
After the war, he and Eleanor
returned to DWU, and following
his graduation, joined its faculty
as a professor of history and polit-
ical science.
He later completed a Ph.D. in
History at Northwestern Univer-
sity, and studies at nearby Garrett
Theological Seminary. But living
through the war pushed George to-
wards public service, so he began
traveling town-to-town and farm-
to-farm rebuilding the South
Dakota Democratic Party and
competitive two-party system in
the state.
No one worked harder or with
greater organization on the cam-
paign trail; George would walk
both sides of the entire length of a
main street, shake the hand and
listen to every person on the side-
walk or in the coffee shops. In an
era before hand-held electronic de-
vices, George had accumulated an
archive of 40,000 voter 3x5 cards

Russell Means__________________
Russell Means never shunned
attention. Whether leading Native
Americans in railing against bro-
ken federal treaties, appearing in
a Hollywood blockbuster or advo-
cating a sovereign American In-
dian nation within U.S. borders,
the activist who helped lead the
1973 uprising at Wounded Knee
reveled in the spotlight.
But it was only on his terms.
Openly critical of mainstream
media, the onetime leader of the
American Indian Movement often
refused interviews and verbally
blasted journalists who showed up
to cover his public appearances.
Instead, he chose to speak to his
fan base through YouTube videos
and blog posts on his personal
website.
When he did speak out publicly,
he remained steadfast in his de-
fense of AIM. He found himself
dogged for decades by questions
about the group's alleged involve-
ment in the slaying of a tribe mem-
ber and the several gun battles
with federal officers during the 71-
day occupation of Wounded Knee,
bu t denied the group ever pro-
moted violence.
"You people who want to con-
tinue to put AIM in this certain
pocket of illegality, I can't stand
you people," Means said, lashing
out an at audience member ques-
tion during an April gathering
commemorating the uprising's
40th anniversary. "I wish I was a
little bit healthier and a little bit
younger, because I wouldn't just
talk."
Means, who announced in Au-
gust 2011 that he had developed
inoperable throat cancer but told
The Associated Press he was forgo-
ing mainstream medical treat-
ments in favor of traditional Amer-
ican Indian remedies, died early
Monday at his ranch in in Porcu-
pine, S.D., Oglala Sioux Tribe
spokeswoman Donna Salomon
said. He was 72.
Born in Wanblee on the Pine
Ridge Indian Reservation, Means
grew up in the San Francisco area
before becoming an early leader of
AIM. He often was embroiled in
controversy, partly because of
AIM's alleged involvement in the
1975 slaying of Annie Mae Aquash.
But Means also was known for
his role in the movie "The Last of
the Mohicans" and had run unsuc-
cessfully for the Libertarian nomi-
nation for president in 1988.
AIM was founded in the late
1960s to protest the U.S. govern-
ment's treatment of Native Ameri-
cans and demand the government
honor its treaties with Indian
tribes. Means told the AP in 2011
that before AIM, there had been no
advocate on a national or interna-
tional scale for American Indians,
and that Native Americans were
ashamed of their heritage.
"No one except Hollywood stars
and very rich Texans wore Indian
jewelry," Means said. "And there
was a plethora of dozens if not
hundreds of athletic teams that in
essence were insulting us, from
grade schools to college. That's all
changed."
The movement eventually faded
away, the result of Native Ameri-
cans becoming self-aware and self-
determined, Means said.
Paul DeMain, publisher of In-
dian Country Today, said there
were plenty of Indian activists be-
fore AIM bu t that the group be-
came the "radical media gorilla."
"If someone needed help, you
called on the American Indian
Movement and they showed up
and caused all kind of ruckus and
looked beautiful on a 20-minute
clip on TV that night," DeMain
said.
Means and AIM co-founder Den-
nis Banks were charged in 1974
for their role in the Wounded Knee
uprising, but after a trial that
lasted several months, a judge
threw the charges out on grounds
of government misconduct.
Means said he felt his most im-
portant accomplishment was the
founding of the Republic of Lako-
tah and the "re-establishment of
our freedom to be responsible" as a
sovereign nation inside the bor-
ders of the United States. His ef-
forts to have his proposed country
recognized by the international
community continued at the
United Nations, he said, even as it
was ignored by tribal governments
closer to home, including his own
Oglala Sioux Tribe.
But others may remember him
for his former organization's conn
ection to Aquash's slaying. Her
death remains synonymous with
AIM and its often-violent clashes
with federal agents in the 1970s.
Authorities believe three AIM
members shot and killed Aquash
on the Pine Ridge reservation on
the orders of someone in AIM's
leadership because they suspected
she was an FBI informant. Two ac-
tivists - Arlo Looking Cloud and
John Graham - were both eventu-
ally convicted of murder. The third
has never been charged.
Means blamed Vernon Belle-
court, another AIM leader, for or-
dering Aquash's killing. Bellecourt
denied the allegations in a 2004 in-
terview, four years before he died.
DeMain, an Indian journalist
who researched the case, said
AIM's leaders know who ordered
Aquash's killing but have covered
up the truth for decades.
Also in 1975, murder charges
were filed against Means and Dick
Marshall, an AIM member, in the
shooting death of Martin Mon-
tileaux of Kyle at the Longbranch
Saloon in Scenic. Marshall served
24 years in pris on. Means was ac-
quitted.
In addition to his presidential
bid, Means also briefly served as a
vice presidential candidate in
1984, joining the Larry Flynt
ticket during the Hustler maga-
zine publisher's unsuccessful bid
for the Republican nomination.
But Means always considered
himself a Libertarian and couldn't
believe that anyone would want to
call themselves either a Republi-
can or a Democrat.
"It's just unconscionable that
America has become so stupid," he
said.
His acting career began in 1992
when he portrayed Chingachgook
alongside Daniel Day-Lewis'
Hawkeye in "The Last of the Mo-
hicans." He also appeared in the
1994 film "Natural Born Killers,"
voiced Chief Powhatan in the 1995
animated film "Pocahontas" and
guest starred in 2004 on the HBO
series "Curb Your Enthusiasm."
Means recounted his life in the
book "Where White Men Fear to
Tread." He said he pulled no
punches in his autobiography, ad-
mitting to his frailties and evils
but also acknowle dging his suc-
cesses.
"I tell the truth, and I expose
myself as a weak, misguided, mis-
directed, dysfunctional human
being I used to be," he said.
Salomon, the tribal spokes-
woman, called Means' death a
"great loss" for the Oglala Sioux
Tribe.
Means' death came a day after
former U.S. Sen. George McGov-
ern died in Sioux Falls at the age
of 90. McGovern had traveled to
Wounded Knee with U.S. Sen.
James Abourezk during the 71-day
takeover to try to negotiate an end.
"I've lost two good friends in a
matter of two to three days,"
Abourezk said Monday morning. "I
don't pretend to understand it."
Wake services for Means are
scheduled for Wednesday, October
24, 2012 at the Little Wound
School in Kyle, on the Pine Ridge
reservation. His ashes will be scat-
tered in the Black Hills of South
Dakota on Thursday.

By Coach Karol Patter-

The Cross Country season for
2012 is now officially complete.
The state meet was held on Satur-
day, October 20th in Huron on a
cool, breezy day.
Austin Huether finished his
running season against 113 other
Class B runners. He ran well fin-
ishing eighth in a time of 18:19.96.
It was quite a race with the top 25
medaling.
Five other runners from our re-
gion also finished in the top 25
making for a strong showing.
Duane Jongeling from Parker won
the race in 16:13.51 with Parker
also winning the team title. Es-
telline came in second with 34
points and Dupree was third with
50 points. The Philip boys team
ran well finishing sixth.
Huether places eighth at
state meet held in Huron
There were 108 girls running in
Class B with Ipswich running
away with the team title with nine
points. A perfect score is six.
Coach's Comments: What an
ending for Huether! He gave it his
all throughout the entire 3.1 miles.
The competition was outstand-
ing with strong runners. With
many spectators and family (all
his siblings were there) he ran
very well.
Again, wonderful memories of
another successful season and a
great group of athletes.
I appreciate the parents for
your support, fans for always
cheering and asking how the
squad was doing, and the many
volunteers for helping us when
meets were hosted here this sea-
son. Until next season. Coach Pat-
terson
By Coach Kent Anderson
The Wall Eagles Football Team
ended their regular season in great
fashion as they defeated the
Lyman Raiders 42 to 14. With the
win the Eagles finished the regu-
lar season with a 5 3 record and
a three way tie for second place in
the conference race. Also with the
win the Eagles secured second
place in the region and will host
the first round game on Tuesday,
October 23rd against the New Un-
derwood Tigers. Game time is set
for 7:00.
The Eagles came out and took
control of the game early. The Ea-
gles defense dominated the
Raiders in the first series and
forced them to punt. This would
set the tone for the game as the de-
fense controlled them all night.
They had one breakdown in the
second quarter and gave up a long
touchdown run. That would be
pretty much the only negative
from the varsity defense.
The offense also controlled the
game with a punishing run
scheme. We ran our power play
many times and were very success-
ful with it all night. The Eagles
took a 7 to 0 lead in the first quar-
ter and quickly turned it in to a po-
tential runaway in the second
quarter scoring three more times.
Lane Blasius would call his own
number on a sneak and score the
first touchdown of the night. After
more dominant defense in the sec-
ond quarter, the Eagles offense
would also spark as Carson John-
ston would score from six yards
out and Tyler Trask would ramble
in for two scores of nine and 30
yards. Anderson would add the
point after kick on each of the four
first half touchdowns.
The third quarter started with a
bang as Trask took the first play of
the half the distance. Trask cut
back against the grain and ran 35
yards for the score. Once again An-
derson was successful on the kick
and the Eagles put the game away.
The Eagles defense stayed
stingy and continued not to budge.
The Eagles were once again quick
to answer as Carson Johnston cut
his way in for his second touch-
down of the game from eight yards
out. With the Anderson kick good,
the Eagles had a dominant 42 to 6
lead midway through the third
quarter. With the play clock run-
ning for the remainder of the
game, the Eagles were able to play
many players in the remainder of
the game. The Eagles did allow a
late score by Lyman but did play
pretty well until the final horn
blew.
It was a great win and a super
way to end the regular season.

THANK YOUS
What a blessing for so many
family, friends and neighbors
sending their love to me by mes-
sages, phone calls, gifts, roses
and the many, many cards I re-
ceived.
A special thanks to the family
that came with balloons, two
cakes and ice cream. Then 80
candles were put on the cakes
and lit. Have you ever tried blow-
ing out that many candles? It
took me about four tries by then
it was getting pretty hot and
smokey. The smoke alarm went
off. It was a day to remember.
God loves you and I do too.

Congratulations
First, congratulations on
achieveing one of the United

tions highest awards as a Na-
tional Blue Ribbon School. We
can see why Wall school was
chose for this award. We feel the
principal, Mr. Sykora, teachers
and staff are outstanding.
Then, many thanks to every
person involved and concerned
at the school board meeting Oct.
10, 2012 in the decision making
it possible for Mason and Mor-
gan Zelfer to come back to the
Wall school system.
And last, but not least, thank
you to the mothers, grandmoth-
ers and friends who have offered
assistance if needed because of
the travel distance.
Great Grandpa & Grandma

WALL CITy
COUNCIL MEETING
OCTOBER 9, 2012 6:30PM
The Wall City Council met for a regular
meeting October 9, 2012 at 6:30 pm in
the Community Center meeting room.
Members Present: Dave Hahn, Mayor;
Rick Hustead, Councilman; Bill Leonard,
Councilman; Mike Anderson, Council-
man; Stan Anderson, Councilman; Jerry
Morgan, Councilman
Carolynn Anderson, Finance Officer; Jim
Kitterman, Public Works; Lindsey Hilde-
brand, Chamber/Assistant FO; Lieutenant
Kraig Wood, Pennington County Sheriff;
Laurie Hindman, Pennington Co.
Courant; Leah Bifulco, Casey Peterson &
Associates; Andrew Ferris, Teen 19;
Steve Wyant; Kent Jordan; Neal Lurz;
Fred Folsom, Seth Green, Waste Con-
nections
(All action taken in the following minutes
carried by unanimous vote unless other-
wise stated.)
Motion by S Anderson, second by Dunker
to approve the agenda. Motion carried.
Lieutenant Kraig Wood presented the po-
lice report. Wood informed the council he
is being deployed to Afghanistan soon;
therefore Sgt. Wardle or Capt. Bruback-
ken will be attending the meetings.
Leah Bifulco from Casey Peterson & As-
sociates presented the 2011 City of Wall
audit. Leah commented one of the
biggest problems is; purchase orders are
not completed before purchases are
made. Finance Officer (FO) Anderson
also informed the council a letter of ap-
proval was received from the SD Legisla-
tive Audit on the 2011 audit. Motion by
Dunker, second by Leonard that the 2011
audit has been accepted and approved.
Motion carried.
Motion by S Anderson, second by Mor-
gan to let Wounded Knee Museum
owner, Steve Wyant, proceed with the
stabilization of his roof following the fire in
his business; however, with the stipulation
proper paperwork is turned into FO An-
derson. Wyant explained the entire build-
ing has been gutted and his next step is
to stabilize the roof. He is hoping for
quick action and to complete the shell
soon. He has always wanted to expand
the building so no interior work will be
done until he has decided whether to ex-
pand or keep the same building design.
At this time building permits were re-
viewed: Lucille Randolph build new
steps on south door at 203 Creighton
Road; Bart & Tommi Cheney move in
storage sheds at 508 Spur Drive; Bob
Hamann replace roof material w/steel at
303 Creighton Road; Vickie Willuwiet
reside mobile home w/steel siding at 428
Fifth Avenue.
Motion by Hustead, second by Leonard to
approve applications for water utility serv-
ice connections for Echo Valley and Tan-
ner Handcock. Motion carried.
Fred Folsom from Waste Connections
was on hand to answer any questions the
city may have if they move forward with
an ordinance to require commercial busi-
nesses contracting for garbage service.
Presently Waste Connections does not
contract with any other communities that
mandate garbage service for businesses.
The policing aspect of enforcing this ordi-
nance would be the difficult part of the
process, but one option would be locking
dumpsters. Motion by Dunker, second by
M Anderson to appoint S Anderson, Hus-
tead, Morgan to a committee to review
this issue and report back at the next
council meeting. Motion carried.
Folsom also requested that residents
have no alley garbage service from No-
vember 1st to May 15th. Motion by Mor-
gan, second by S Anderson to approve
no residential alley garbage service from
November 1st to May 15th; therefore, all
garbage will be picked up on the street.
Motion carried.
Des Oil offered contracting for propane
for $1.399 per gallon. Last year 8,000 gal-
lons was contracted. Motion by Leonard,
second by Hustead to contract 8,000 gal-
lons at a price of $1.399 with Des Oil.
Motion carried.
The Ambulance district has decided to get
insurance coverage with EMS Pak
through Fischer Rounds. FO Anderson
also received a quote for the fire depart-
ment, as the ambulance quote was much
lower than with the previous provider.
The fire department quote came in ap-
proximately $2,000 cheaper with extra
coverage. Motion by S Anderson, second
by Morgan to go with the EMS Pak insur-
ance through Fischer Rounds for the fire
department. Motion carried.
Motion by Morgan, second by S Ander-
son to reduce the required horsepower
from 140 to 120 for the airport snow re-
moval equipment, thus, enable bidders to
meet the 60% made in America guide-
lines by the FAA. Motion carried.
Motion by Morgan, second by S Ander-
son to advertise and open bids for the air-
port snow removal equipment at the No-
vember 8th meeting.
The lease agreement for the Ambulance
District on the building and equipment is
still under review with the Attorney.

tead to approve September 6th and Sep-
tember 14th City Council meeting min-
utes. Motion carried. Note: Minutes are
due immediately following approval from
the membership.
Motion by Hustead, motion by M Ander-
son to approve July, August and Septem-
ber fire department meeting minutes.
Motion carried. Note: Minutes are due im-
mediately following approval from the

FO Anderson collected useful information
at the municipal league conference and
also acquired a codebook to follow con-
cerning the cleanup of properties. She will
give comments and recommendations
when she has time to review it.
Motion by Hustead, second by Morgan to
approve FO Anderson attends a free Risk
Management Workshop in Rapid City on
October 11th. Motion carried.
Public Works Items: The motor in the
pump at Well 7 has gone down and
needs repair; public works will check to
see if the cause could be dirty power; ei-
ther too high or too low of voltage. This
could cause the motor to burn out.
Motion by S Anderson, second by Dunker
to approve renewal of a 3-year agree-
ment with DOT; for the City to perform
snowplow removal activities on the
frontage road. Motion carried.
A quote was received for $399 to do an
inspection on the backhoe, not including
an oil change to determine needed re-
pairs. Expenses for any needed repairs
were not included in the budget for
CY2013. The backhoe is currently used
very little: occasional water repairs, etc.
The consensus was to keep it in inven-
tory; use only if necessary and look at it
next spring for budget purposes.
Issues with no signs or restrictions on
Kelly Avenue were addressed. There was
concern that the city doesnt own the
property that the signs would be control-
ling. Possible signage would be private
road and no thru traffic on city property
at both ends of Gloria Street. A Dead
End sign could be placed at the Kelly Ave
entrance off of Stone Drive. Motion by
Dunker, second by Hustead that Dunker
and S Anderson meet with landowner and
install signs if he agrees. Motion carried.
One landowner has concern with signing
the construction and sewer easements
needed to proceed with the sewer project.
The original landowner did not sign sewer
easements when the sewer main was
originally constructed. The landowner
has someone interested in purchasing
land to build a shop but with an easement
and sewer line that wouldnt be possible.
The landowner would like the city to pur-
chase the property. Other landowners
will need to approve easements before
any kind of transaction can be made.
Dunker and M Anderson met with parks
committee, with a list of items needing to
be accomplished at the park. Most are
general maintenance items and can be
completed by the public works depart-
ment. The list included staining the play-
ground equipment, repairing park
benches, painting the bathrooms, repair-
ing the sprinkler system and the reinstal-
lation of the volleyball court.
The renter of the Wall Discount Outlet has
requested to install a fence on the back-
side of the property and has completed
the building permit application. Public
Works Director Clark was unable to reach
the property owner, Tim Eisenbraun, to
see if he approved of the fence. There
was concern that property lines may not
be accurate and are infringed upon by
neighboring property owners. FO Ander-
son will talk with DC Scott, the surveyor,
to resolve this issue of property lines
being incorrect. The building permit will
be addressed at the next council meeting.
The next City Council meeting will be No-
vember 8th at 6:30pm.
Meeting was adjourned at 8:27pm.
