Haakon and Jackson County FSA proposes
new boundries for area producers
viously pastored in Mission, South
Dakota at the Pastorate Ministry
Assembly of God for nine years be-
fore answering the call for a minis-
ter in Wanblee.
While ministering in Mission,
Gus and Terry doubled the size of
the church, started a soup kitchen,,
a food pantry, a youth ministry, and
provided many other beneficial op-
portunities for the community.
They were approached by the
Emmanuel Mission to purchase the
church in Wanblee. Hearing their
call for a minister, Gus and Terry
made the move to Wanblee and
thus began Eagle Nest Life Center.
During their first year at Wanblee,
Gus and Terry continued to pastor
in Mission as well as Wanblee.
Soon after arriving in Wanblee,
Gus decided they needed a new
church. Gus and Terry were deter-
mined not to build until they had
the money to do so. As God would
have it, donations began to arrive.
Donations in all forms contributed
to the construction of the Eaglenest
Life Center.
Eight months later with
propane heaters and construction
lights set up, Gus and Terry pas-
tored their first Christmas service
in the Eagle Nest Life Center.
Since then, the center has evolved
and grown with the help of visiting
church groups and local volunteers.
Eagle Nest Life Center offers
many services to the Wanblee com-
munity, local youth and church
groups from around the country.
Every Tuesday and Thursday, you
can find Terry and Cassie Craven,
and local volunteer, Arlee Kukal,
hard at work getting lunch ready
for the soup kitchen.
Just recently the center hosted
the mobile food pantry Feeding
SD. This food pantry offers frozen
food, canned goods, cereal, frozen
meat and much more. The pantry
contributed to over 100 families in
the Wanblee community and area.
Along with the soup kitchen and
food pantry, the center offers a va-
riety of church services every Sun-
day. Gus and Terry, along with
their regular church services, also
offer a childrens church service for
children up to the age of ten. This
service is offered after their regular
Sunday services.
Gus and Terry share the same
passion and hope for the youth.
They have formed and lead a local
youth group within the Wanblee
community. Gus and Terry wel-
come the youth into the church by
offering many opportunities to the
kids. Every summer they take the
group on an annual trip to Camp
Noah. Kids ranging from first
grade up to fourteen years old
spend a week down on the Missouri
River at the Snake Creek Camp-
ground. The kids come together for
a week of fellowship and youth
ministry.
If we can impact one kid, one
kid can change the reservation
adds Gus.
The center and a local youth
work group will be taking an addi-
tional trip this summer to Turtle
Mountain Reservation this sum-
mer. While there, the youth group
will be helping with various proj-
ects located on the reservation.
They will also will be heading to
Texas to work on Wounded Warrior
Projects. Gus and Terry hope their
message to the youth be reaffirmed
through people helping people.
One of the latest and ongoing
projects for the Cravens is the
Glory Ranch. The Glory Ranch is
located on the former John and
Doris Sherburne Ranch just East of
Wanblee. Gus and Terrys son and
daughter-in-law, Kyle and Cassie
Craven, and their family live in the
house located at the Glory Ranch.
As you enter the Glory Ranch, a
sign above the entrance reflects the
message To God Be The Glory.
Gus and Terry Craven want to pass
this message on to all those who
experience the The Glory Ranch
and Eagle Nest Life Center. Last
summer, a community garden was
planted at the Glory Ranch, and
fellow community residents
planted and maintained the gar-
den. Pumpkins were planted and
harvested for their annual Harvest
Fest.
The Harvest Fest was held the
Saturday before Halloween in Oc-
tober. Many activities such as
pumpkin painting, bow and arrow
shooting contests, wagon rides, and
many other activities for the the
youth were held.
Currently, the Cravens are
working on repairing and develop-
ing one of the out buildings into a
life skills workshop. Just as the
Cravens travel to other churches
and assist in helping with projects,
a church group from Maine will be
lending a helping hand for the life
skills project.
With the Easter holiday upon
us, Gus and Terry would like to ex-
tend an invitation to all who would
like to attend Easter sunrise serv-
ices with them on Quiver Hill be-
ginning at 6:30 a.m. Easter
morning. Gus and Terry stand
strong in the faith of their
mininstry.
As Gus says, If we can allow the
Lord to work through us, we have
done our job.

As you drive through Wanblee,
you may have noticed a building
peeking out from around other the
houses as you glanced to the East
and wondered, What building is
that? Well, for those of you who
are wondering, it is the Eagle Nest
Life Center.
Pastors Gus and Terry Craven
established the Eagle Nest Life
Center in 2008. Gus and Terry pre-
Eagle Nest Life Center spreading the message through their outreach ministry

When events occur to change the
daily life as we've become accus-
tomed to, the new challenges can
sometimes be overwhelming.
A new challenge is what was
presented to Larry and Karen
Denny recently.
Over the past three years, Larry
has had more than 20 surgeries to
remove blood clots from his leg, re-
ceived artificial veins, and 17
stints. Still, Larrys leg was not
healing and was unhealthy. At that
point the doctors inserted a blood
pump in his leg through an open
incision. For three and a half
months, Larry would return to the
doctors office, every two days, for
the pump and incision to be
cleaned. Once the pump was re-
moved, the damaged and un-
healthy skin were replaced with a
skin graph. Unfortunately, the skin
graph was not successful and never
healed properly.
Larrys circulation continued to
decrease, which caused a great
amount of pain and discomfort.
The pain was terrible, said
Larry, nothing made it feel better
and I never felt comfortable.
In January, another surgery was
performed and following this sur-
gery his foot began to die.
Each time Larry would have
surgery we knew there was a pos-
sibility that he could lose his leg,
said Karen, but each time the doc-
tors would save it.
That was until recently when
Larry went back to the hospital
and within five days, six surgeries
were performed on his leg. Doctors
told them there was nothing more
that could be done to save his leg
and amputation would need to be
done before any infection set in to
the leg.
Larry underwent surgery and
the lower portion of his left leg was
amputated. After six weeks in the
hospital, Larry was released to go
home and was already thinking of
the new challenge that was waiting
for him when he arrived.
Stairs. What was previously
such an easy task to do, would now
be so difficult. Living in an older
home, there are many stairs to gain
access to their home. With the help
of their neighbor, Larry was able to
get into his home. But leaving
again for his upcoming doctor ap-
pointment would be another task.
The fear of being homebound
was far greater than the fear of los-
ing my leg, he said.
It was obvious that something
would need to change in order for
Larry to be able to come and go
from the house. Karen contacted
different agencies for assistance in
building a ramp, but these at-
tempts for help were unsuccessful.
I didnt have the knowledge of
how a ramp should be built, said
Karen, and the expense of the ma-
terial and labor, I knew would be
more than we could afford.
Then one day while standing in
a local business, a gentleman came
up to Karen and told her that
someone had contacted him about
building a ramp on their home. He
said all the material and labor had
been paid for by an anonymous per-
son.
In a state of shock, Karen went
right home and shared the news
with Larry.
In the next few days, a contrac-
tor built and installed a new ramp
on their house.
I was so excited, said Larry
with a smile, the first day we had
the ramp we had to try it out, so we
went out for coffee and it was so
nice. The freedom of being able to
come and go and the feeling of in-
dependence is unmeasurable.
Although, Larry says he de-
pends on Karen for help, but know-
ing hes not completely dependant
on her is a comfort.
Losing my leg is a change and I
can handle the change, Larry said,
but this ramp changed my life.
Overcoming those new obstacles
in life can be difficult, but with a
gracious gift and with a helping
hand, those challenges are now at-
tainable.
There will never be enough
words to express the proper thank
you to those who did this for us and
the difference it made, Larry con-
cluded with emotion.
The impact of helping others can change a life

Read 1 Corinthians 2:9-14
There is no circumstance in our lives about which
the Lord will not speak to us. And we can be sure that
when He does, His words are always purposeful. Con-
sider some of the Fathers goals for His children:
God wants us to comprehend the truth of what He is saying. As Christians, we can be confident that
this will happen because the Holy Spirit is present within us, and John 16:13 promises that He will guide
us into all truth. It may take time and effort on our part, but the Lords intention is for us to clearly un-
derstand what Hes communicating.
Our heavenly Father also has a goal to conform us to the image of Christ. As we read the Scriptures,
His Spirit may point out Jesus compassion toward the Samaritan woman as our example for living. Or
He may warn us, through Jesus rebuke of Peter, not to rely on human understanding. Our part is to re-
spond to His words by aligning our lives with the truth, and not to resist.
In addition, God reveals truths about life in Christ so we will be able to communicate those same prin-
ciples to others. Jesus spoke only what His Father had taught Him (John 8:28). Likewise, we need to be
listening carefully every time God speaks so we, too, will know what to say.
God has something to say: to the obedient and the disobedient; to the powerful and the weak; to the
self-assured and the insecure; to the lost and the saved. Dont miss what He has to tell you. Let whatever
happens in the course of the day draw you to Him, and practice giving Him your full attention.

Esther Long, age 89, of Het-
tinger, N.D., formerly of Philip,
S.D., died Sunday, March 24, 2013,
at the Western Horizon Care Cen-
ter in Hettinger, N.D.
Esther Pauline Clawson was
born March 6, 1924, in Sheridan,
Wyo., the daughter of Cecil Ransom
and Sarah Ethel (Shaw) Clawson.
She grew up on her parents
homestead near Arvada, Wyo.,
graduated from Gillette High
School and the Gillette Normal
School (for a teaching certificate) in
1942 and then furthered her edu-
cation in teaching at Black Hills
State College in Spearfish.
Esther taught at rural schools in
Sheridan and Campbell counties in
Wyoming and while at the Powder
River School in Campbell County
met Leroy D. Long, who was visit-
ing relatives in the area. They mar-
ried on December 22, 1945, at
Hardin, Mont., which was 15 days
after Leroys discharge from the
U.S. Army. (When Esther decided
to do something, there was no wait-
ing around.)
They initially made their home
in Campbell County where Esther
was teaching school, but in June
1946, they moved to Philip, where
they built a home and established
a permanent residence.
In addition to raising six chil-
dren, Esther worked a variety of
jobs to help support the family as a
housekeeper, waitress and day care
provider. For her last two years
prior to retirement, she worked as
a kitchen assistant in the Philip
hospital and nursing home.
In 1997, Esther and Leroy
moved into the Senechal Apart-
ments. After the passing of her
husband, Leroy, in January 2000,
Esther lived mostly with her
daughter, Cheryl, and her hus-
band, Phil, in Philip in the warmer
months of the year and with her
son, Wayne, and his wife, Kathy,
during winter months at Hastings,
Nebraska. In July 2012, she went
to Hettinger where son, Jim, and
his wife, Jenifer, live and was ad-
mitted to the Western Horizons
Care Center where she resided
until being called to heaven.
She was a member of the Evan-
gelical Free Church of Philip and
was appreciative of the cards, notes
and prayers from her prayer group
while she was residing in the care
center.
She is survived by three sons,
Wayne (Kathy) of Hastings, Neb.,
Jim (Jenifer) of Hettinger, N.D.,
and Mike of Sioux Falls; two
daughters, Palma Johannesen of
Wall and Cheryl (Phil) Pearson of
Philip; 12 grandchildren; several
great-grandchildren; and a host of
other relatives and friends.
Esther was preceded in death by
her parents, Ethel and Cecil Claw-
son; her husband, Leroy; her
brother, Joseph Clawson; her sis-
ter, Ruth Watt; and her eldest son,
Fred.
Funeral services will be held at

they may change their minds to-
morrow. For the time being,
though, we can cheerfully guzzle
coffee and munch on chocolate, se-
cure in the knowledge that theyre
good for us, sort of like apples. This
is excellent news since I like both
of these things quite a lot, and ap-
ples are okay too.
Both coffee and chocolate have
multiple benefits, and some of
those are linked to their contain-
ing antioxidants. Antioxidants, in
case you arent familiar with them,
are known to prevent tissue dam-
age that is caused by molecules
called oxygen-free radicals. That
explanation does nothing at all for
me since I havent a clue what they
are really talking about. But, since
antioxidants are obviously good for
you, Ill be glad to ingest them fre-
quently in my favorite beverage
and snack.
The health claims for chocolate,
I might add, are substantial. It re-
duces the risk of stroke, lowers
blood pressure and cholesterol,
lowers risk of heart disease, makes
you feel full so you eat less, re-
duces risk of diabetes, reduces
stress, increases blood flow which
makes you smarter and more alert
and even gives vision a boost
through more blood flow to the
retina. It quiets coughs as well
which I discovered for myself last
winter when I had some bug that
gave me a nasty hack. I dislike
cough drops so I decided to try a
piece of dark chocolate. It actually
helped. I reasoned that chocolate
tends to coat the mouth and throat
and might help in that way, but
those in the know say its because
it contains theobromine which re-
duces activity of the vagus nerve.
That nerve is the part of the brain
that triggers hard-to-shake
coughs. No matter how it works, it
works. It also helps calm slight jit-
ters in my arms or legs when Im
trying to get to sleep. No one has
said why that might be, but maybe
it has to do with increased blood
flow.
Coffee doesnt seem to have
quite such an extensive list of ben-
efits, but there are many. It re-
duces the risk of diabetes and
heart-rhythm disturbances. Even
decaffeinated coffee does that. It
lowers the risk of stroke, Parkin-
sons disease, and cancer (espe-
cially liver cancer,) and has a
major proven benefit of making
you sixty-five percent less likely to
develop dementia and Alzheimers
disease. Bring on the coffee. On
the negative side, it can increase
the risk of miscarriage which obvi-
ously is not of major concern to me,
and it can make heartburn worse.
It doesnt seem to bother my diges-
tion, and neither does it keep me
awake. I often set down my coffee
cup, fall into bed, and go right to
sleep.
All of us, of course, are looking
for ways to make our lives better.
When we hear that something
were doing is actually good for us,
we embrace it heartily. Thats
probably why I spend a lot of time
trying to be a better Christian.
Chocolate and coffee may have
some benefits, but being close to
God has many more. It certainly
reduces stress since God promises
to guide and protect us. I figure I
would be a basket case by now if I
couldnt rely on him. He has
helped and protected me times
without number.
Then too, we are naturally
drawn to those who like us or, bet-
ter yet, love us. Thats what were
celebrating at this time of year
when Easter reminds us of Gods
great love that led him to send his
son to die for us. Thats extreme
love. We can never hope to repay
him for this sacrifice, but we can at
least be thankful. We can also re-
spond by trying to let God accom-
plish in us and through us what is
pleasing and useful to him. He
even wants us to constantly stay in
touch with him, and we can cer-
tainly do that with a little effort.
So, during this Easter week,
there will no doubt be plenty of
chocolate to enjoy and probably
coffee too, but most of all we can
rejoice in being children of the
King. As such we can look forward
to the brightest of futures, both
here on earth and evermore with
our Lord in heaven. Easter bless-
ings on us all.

billies, at Rapid City Christian
School. Sue Larson is the director.
There was a dessert bar at the in-
termission. That was Marjories
birthday treat, as the 23rd is her
birthday. Well, going to the play
was her birthday treat, but the
dessert bar helped, too. They re-
turned home that night.
Erica and Andrea were dinner
guests Sunday.
movie scenes. Some events can be
done on horseback. The guys went
with Chads dad and sister from
Pierre who are also members of the
organization. Francie Davis
and sons, Garrett and Gage, stayed
home this time around. Francie is
happy to report that Black Hills U
at Spearfish has sent notification
that she will graduate in May from
that institution.
Larry Grimme reports a couple
from Wanblee has been checking
out his greenhouse with the idea of
building a similar one for them-
selves. He was amused, to note,
that their family comes from the
Black-Forest area of Germany
while his roots are in Hamburg,
Germany.
Perry Compton has been living
on and off for awhile at the old Art
Johnston place. Greg and Dana
Badure also lived there before it
was sold to Perrys dad from Pierre.
Perry retired in December from
being a jockey for 43 years. His last
race was at Oklahoma City, OK on
Dec. 9 where he came in fifth. His
career involved something like
28,000 races of which he won al-
most 3,700. He rode horses belong-
ing to many people including
western-singer, Toby Keith. At
present, Perry is doing some car-
pentry and repair work at the place
and trying to figure what to do with
the rest of his life. His folks, who
live at Pierre, are into horses as
well since they raise them.
Kenny and Roxie Fox gained an-
other granddaughter on March 22
when Bailey Ann Fox was born to
Shawn and Jodi Fox of Mobridge.
Since labor was induced, Kenny
and Roxie knew she would be born
on Friday and went up that day to
be on hand. Things went fine, and
Bailey arrived with a full head of
hair. This is genetic on both sides
of the family so it was sort of ex-
pected. She is cute, of course, ac-
cording to Roxie and fairly quiet.
Shawn took a week off from work,
and Jodi will take six. Kenny and
Roxie came home on Friday since
they wanted to attend the health
fair in Philip on Saturday. They
have attended the health fair an-
nually, since they dont doctor a lot,
but still like to occasionally have
readings on such things as blood
pressure, cholesterol and such. The
fair starts early since people are
told not to eat before they come in
order to make the tests come out
more accurately.
Delores Bonenberger stayed
close to home this week since her
guys were all around working on
the corrals. Their branding is
scheduled for next Saturday.
Keith, Brett and Kade were all in
and out so Delores figured they
probably needed hot meals from
time to time.
Jory Rodgers was pleased to
come in fourth in the 180-weight
class of the state AAU wrestling
meet held in Brookings this week-
end. His mom, Jo, and he went to
Brookings on Friday in company
with Mark DeVries and family.
They stayed nights about 20 miles
out of town at Lake Poinsett and
returned home on Sunday. Geof-
frey DeVries also had good results
and came out sixth in his weight
class. Jory is in the seventh grade.
Betty Kusick went to Kadoka
one day this week where she had
lunch at Discount Fuel with Dana
Badure who was working there at
the time but on lunch break. After
that, she visited Bunny Green at
the Care Center, got some gro-
ceries, and returned home. Betty
said she gained her first great
great grandkid on March 18 when
Anthony Berg was born to her
great grandson, Damien Berg and
his wife, Beth, in Florida. Damien
is the son of Mike and Misty Berg,
and Mike is the son of Bettys
daughter, Loretta. Betty has also
noted that the ice is starting to dis-
appear off the dams so she is get-
ting a little impatient for it to clear
enough that she can get back to
doing some fishing.
Tejai Sanftner stayed overnight
with Brisa and Martin Badure this
weekend. It was too cold to be out-
side a lot, but there was always the
Wii computer/TV game to play
which is apparently a lot of fun.
Crystal Paulsons daughter and
granddaughter, Davina and
Keeghan Spoonemore, have ar-
rived at Crystals to spend some
time. They expect to stay at least
until school gets out later this
spring. Davina came from El Paso,
Texas where she remains in the
army reserve. She will have to re-
turn there for drills from time to
time.
The ladies tea at the church hall
on Saturday afternoon was well at-
tended. Gals came from Okaton,
Philip and Kadoka and brought
something like twenty kids along
with them. Guest speaker was
Robin Reinhold from the Rainbow
Bible Ranch. Francie Davis said
there was a multitude of tasty
snacks and desserts, and the event
was a lot of fun.
Chad and Grady Davis went to
Watertown this weekend. They
participated in a gun shoot,
through the SASS (Single Action
Shooting Society), which is in-
volved with single-shot target
shooting in an Old-West setting. It
is sometimes referred to as Cowboy
Action Shooting. Each member has
an alias, such as Badlands Bud or
Holy Terror, and also develops a
unique western costume. Each par-
ticipant competes in various shoot-
ing scenarios that are taken from
famous historical incidents or from

Afghanistan and continue to do so.
Kadokas unit was fortunate of be
given 60 large quilts, five small
quilts and 14 lap robes which have
been taken to veterans at Ft.
Meade and the Hot Springs VA
Hospital. These were given because
of the backing on the quilts which
were not appropriate for the over-
seas veterans. Someone had do-
nated polyester backing which is
not compatible with conditions
overseas. Paula Vogelsang brings
the quilts to this unit and they are
taken to the hospitals. Many
women in this area, including
Kadoka, Belvidere and Philip, help
in the sewing of the quilts. Many
Nebraska women are also busy
making quilts for Quilts With Love.

were Aage Ceplecha, Lane Patter-
son and Kahler Addison. The
Kadoka FFA also placed second in
Livestock Evaluation. Myles Addi-
son placed second individually.
Other team members were Jed
Brown, Paul Kary, Gavin Devries
and Dylan Riggins.
Although Kadoka didnt place in
Horse Evaluation as a team, Katie
Lensegrav placed seventh individ-
ually. When asked of what she
thought of the trip, Tigh Livermont
was quoted as saying, It was a
great opportunity to be able to go,
considering the fact that very few
freshmen made it. Im glad I went,
and I hope I get to go again. I love
horses, but judging them was diffi-
cult. I found out you have to work
diligently in order to do well.

United States Senators Tim
Johnson and John Thune have an-
nounced that legislation to allow
construction of a visitor center at
the Minuteman Missile National
Historic Site cleared a hurdle after
it was reported out of the Senate
Energy and Natural Resources
Committee.
The legislation would transfer
approximately 29 acres of National
Forest Service land to the National
Park Service to construct a visitor
facility and provide parking. The
legislation is now ready to be con-
sidered by the full Senate.
We worked hard to establish the
Minuteman Missile site in the late
1990s, and with my legislation, we
can ensure that many more South
Dakotans and tourists from around
the world can learn about this his-
toric site, said Johnson, a member
of the Energy and Natural Re-
sources Committee. I am glad the
full committee approved this legis-
lation and it can now be brought to
the Senate floor for consideration.
The Minuteman Missile Na-
tional site is a reminder of the his-
toric and important role that South
Dakota played in the Cold War
arms race, said Thune. Providing
additional land to the Minuteman
Missile site to be used for the devel-
opment of a visitors center will
make a piece of South Dakotas
past more accessible to students of
history from around the globe. I
look forward to working with my
colleagues on both sides of the aisle
to move this important legislation
through the Senate.
The launch control facility and
missile silo that make up the Min-
uteman Missile National Historic
Site were preserved to illustrate
the history of the Cold War and the
role the Air Forces Minuteman II
Missile defense system played in
efforts to preserve world peace. The
Minuteman Missile consists of the
Delta-01 Launch Facility and the
Delta-09 Missile Silo, located about
11 miles from one another on Inter-
state 90.
The legislation builds upon a bill
passed in 1999 that established
Minuteman Missile as a National
Historic Site, which required that
two sites be evaluated as potential
locations for a visitor center. The
land transfer provided in the bill
would allow for the construction of
a visitor center and administrative
facility at Exit 131 off of I-90. The
bill would also transfer 3.65 acres
near the missile silo for visitor
parking and other administrative
uses. Congress provided funding
for the construction of the visitor
center when the site was estab-
lished.
Johnson and Thune reintroduced
the Minuteman Missile National
Historic Site Boundary Modifica-
tion Act (S. 459) on March 5.
Minuteman Missile bill can now be considered by full Senate
The Midland community opened
its doors to host the fourth develop-
ment session for Stronger Econ-
omies Together, a group which
meets monthly to build a blueprint
for regional economic development
in the Badlands/Bad River region.
The group met Tuesday. March
12, at the Open Bible Church, and
focused on the topics of developing
a vision statement and goals for the
plan.
Prior to the working meeting,
Midland representatives offered
city tours, culminating in a walk-
through of the newly named, Lava
Waters Inn, formerly the Stropp-
pel Inn. While visitors wandered
through the historic building, sto-
ries of history and new ideas were
shared.
About 30 people toured Midland
and the Lava Water Hotel. It was
exciting to hear Kathy Jensen's fu-
ture plans for the hotel and to see
the progress she has already
made, said Beth Flom, Midland
member on the SET team.
Session four opened with a per-
sonality assessment, helping group
members to understand their lead-
ership style, as well as others in
the group. This led to time spent
conceiving a vision statement in
line with regional assets and val-
ues. Between this session and the
next, a small group will be forming
the ideas into a solid vision state-
ment that will represent the direc-
tion of the entire group.
Brainstorming of goals and
learning how to write them to be
SMART rounded out the session.
The group came up with 20 broad
goals that will be narrowed and
prioritized during the next four ses-
sions. Current group members can
share ideas they have identified.
The next SET session will be
held in Philip, Tuesday, April 9.
The educational session will be
from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. To as-
sist the group in forming their
plan, guest speakers from the Gov-
ernors Office of Economic Develop-
ment and the South Dakota Labor
Market Information Center will
present economic data on jobs and
industries.
All interested people in the
Haakon/Jackson/eastern Penning-
ton county area are urged to partic-
ipate. For more information, con-
tact Kari ONeill, South Dakota
State University Extension Com-
munity Development, at 685-6972

SUPERINTENDENTS REPORT: Supt.
Hermann reported that a proposal for op-
eration of the track concessions has
been received from the sophomore
class. The sports complex committee will
be reviewing the proposal.
Mr. Hermann informed the board that
there have been technology issues on
the school network system due to failure
of access points. They are working with
temporary fix; parts have been ordered
and are being put together by Golden
West. The fix to the problem will be ap-
proximately $15,000.00.
Mr. Hermann reviewed the SD legislative
session legislation affecting school dis-
tricts; school districts will receive an in-
crease of 3% per student allocation in
state aid in the coming year and some
one-time $ allocations. He sent e-mails
to Representative May and Killer and
Senator Bradford thanking them for their
support.
Mr. Hermann noted that the Sentinel bill
passed. School boards will make deci-
sions regarding this at the local level.
The state special education department
conducted on-site review of the district
on March 6. There were no major find-
ings.

presented the elementary handbook and
reviewed possible changes and updates
that will be made.
Mr. Seiler requested that consideration
be given to advertising for a foreign lan-
guage teacher. Students are currently
taking Spanish via the DNN; twenty three
students have signed up for the class for
next year with thirteen in Spanish II. With
a foreign language instructor, other elec-
tive classes could also be offered.
Mr. Seiler reported that the high school
handbooks are being reviewed during
staff meetings. He reviewed some rec-
ommendations for revisions; final recom-
mendations of revisions will be submitted
when the review is completed.

Rasmussen reported on the NAFIS con-
ference attended.

pair project and needs to be corrected to
face the audience; the addition of a 16
channel mixing board was recom-
mended, a case for the mixing board and
additional microphones were also sug-
gested. Estimated cost from Musicians
Friend is approximately $1,200. Mr. Fu-
gate stated that Horizons, KCBA and the
Music Boosters will contribute $100.00
each; the city will pay one half of the re-
maining amount and one-half of the labor
to correct the ceiling speaker placement.

Having a Cropping Plan
The old adage, Failing to Plan
is Planning to Fail can become
stark reality when faced with chal-
lenges like drought. Presenters for
the currently running webinar se-
ries, Managing Drought Risk on
the Ranch are highlighting the
importance of and encouraging
producers to develop a plan to fol-
low over the next few weeks,
months and beyond to help take
the emotion out of decisions they
may need to make. Crop producers
would be wise to do so as well.
With the unusually dry condi-
tions much of the winter wheat
across South Dakota was planted
into last fall, there is considerable
concern about the viability of the
crop. Although some regions of the
state have received precipitation,
many areas remain quite dry. Pro-
ducers may need to adjust their
cropping plans, depending on how
the spring progresses in terms of
weather and precipitation.
While meeting with a producer,
it became apparent that he had
plans in place. While he devoutly
follows no-till farming practices, a
field fire forced him to use emer-
gency tillage to stop wind erosion
that was occurring on some of his
fields. He traveled at a right-angle
to the prevailing wind, using a
tillage tool with wide-spaced
shanks, and skipping two widths
of the implement between passes.
His logic was that if dry conditions
persist he could come back a sec-
ond or a third time, in the un-
touched ground to hopefully bring
up clods of soil to stop the erosion.
His cropping plans are also
based on a what if scenario. If ad-
equate precipitation is received by
the acceptable date to plant spring
wheat, the seed will go in. If not,
the ground will lay idle until con-
ditions are favorable for another
crop that the timing for planting is
right. If all else fails, he plans to
plant cover crops to take advan-
tage of whatever moisture arrives
to grow some residue and get the
land into condition for the future.
Managers of a cattle operation
recently requested help in design-
ing an irrigation system to better
ensure their ability to raise for-
ages. Not everyone has the soils or
the water resources to do so, but
they are planning ahead rather
than waiting and hoping.
A concern with livestock produc-
ers across much of the state is the
ability to raise enough forage to
meet their needs. One potential
source is winter wheat fields that
may have less than adequate
stands for optimal grain yields.
Wheat can produce relatively high
quality forage, and it may be ben-
eficial to plant additional materi-
als into poor stands to beef up
yields instead of destroying the
crop and starting over.
Whether you are making plans
for various crops as grain or for-
age, the following resources may
be helpful in determining how late
they can be planted, seeding rates
and intended use: ExEx8120,

2013 Rangeland/Soil Days,
June 25-26, 2013 at Kadoka
South Dakota Rangeland Days
will be celebrating their 30th year
anniversary this year at Kadoka,
SD. 30 years ago this unique event
started under the vision and im-
plementation of Dr. James R.
Johnson, SDSU Range Specialist
and Rod Baumberger, SD NRCS,
along with strong support from SD
Natural Resources Conservation
Service, SDSU (South Dakota
State University), SDACD (SD As-
sociation of Conservation Dis-
tricts). This years event is being
co-sponsored by the Jackson and
Haakon County Conservation Dis-
tricts.
Originally Rangeland Days and
Soil Days were two separate
events, both geared to help edu-
cate youth of one, of our most valu-
able resources, Rangelands.
Rangeland and Soil Days are still
separate events, but are now held
at the same time and location each
year. Student competitions are
based upon age group and experi-
ence level, and winners advance to
the National Land and Range
Judging Contest held in Oklahoma
in May of 2014.
In addition, to the above men-
tioned events, there is also a Stu-
dent Talks competition, and the
winner will be given the opportu-
nity to present his/her talk at the
February, 2014 International Soci-
ety for Range Management meet-
ing in Orlando, Florida.
CSP (Conservation Stewardship
Program) is a voluntary program
that encourages agricultural and
forestry producers to undertake
additional conservation activities
and improve and maintain exist-
ing conservation systems. CSP
provides financial and technical
assistance to help land stewards
conserve and enhance soil, water,
air and natural resource related
resources on their land. Sign up is
year around with funding consid-
eration batching dates, announced
during the year, and we just re-
ceived notification that it is look-
ing promising there will be a
batching date yet this fiscal year
(before Sept. 30, 2013), but no date
has been announced at this time.
EQUP
EQIP (Environmental Quality
Incentives Program) is a voluntary
program that provides technical
and financial assistance to produc-
ers, needing to improve their lands
through practices such as livestock
water development (well, pipeline,
tank, springs, pond), seedings
(hayland, pasture, range), living
shelterbelts (windbreaks), and
cross fence. Sign up is year
around with funding consideration
batching dates, announced during
the year.

2013 CSP and/or EQIP pro-
grams/application process, techni-
cal services available, and 2013
