Palmer family featured in regional marketing campaign for Organic Valley
by Kelli Boylen
freelance writer
Anyone who happens to
pick up a gallon or half gal-
lon of Organic Valley 2% milk
locally will see faces from a
Waukon dairy farm family who
truly believes in what they are
doing.
Organic Valley asked John
and Meghan Palmer of rural
Waukon if they were willing
to let a photographer come to
their farm to capture an im-
age to be used for marketing.
We were honored to be asked
and gured it was the least we
could do, John says.
Lewis Goldstein, Execu-
tive Director of Marketing for
Organic Valley says, They
are exemplary of our farmer-
owners and we were happy to
choose them as they represent
our cooperative well. We have
1,834 farmers across the coun-
try, and nd strength in num-
bers. As a farmer-owned coop-
erative, its essential for us to
forge an emotional connection
between our real live farmer-
owners and the families who
drink our milk. It helps when
consumers see the faces of our
farmers."
John and Meghan started
their dairy in July of 2004.
The former high school sweet-
hearts grew up about a mile
apart from one another. Today,
they live on the farm that was
Meghans great-grandparents,
less than 10 miles from where
both of their parents farmed.
John says he always want-
ed to farm. He attended Iowa
State University in Ames for
two years and then moved back
to his home area and nished
his degree at Luther College in
Decorah. In January of 2004
he graduated with a degree in
business. While in college he
crop farmed, which he could
see would not be protable for
him, and he didnt want to farm
without livestock.
The timing was right for the
young couple when they want-
ed to move to a farm of their
own, the farmstead that had
previously been in the family
was up for rent. They placed a
swing-10 parlor in the existing
barn on the farm, which was
built by Meghans family in the
late 1800s.
John was able to locate a
grazing herd just a few miles
from his farm, and July 10 of
2004, the day after complet-
ing the parlor, he started milk-
ing 54 cows. The total number
of the herd he purchased was
about 100, which included
young stock. They started to
graze their animals as soon as
the pasture fence was put in.
John was fortunate to have
the opportunity to work on
a parlor prior to construct-
ing his own. Meghans dad,
Merlin Gesing, constructed a
parlor and John played a role
in its construction. Merlin was
an organic dairy farmer from
the mid-1990s until he retired
from the dairy portion of his
operation in 2012. Johns fa-
ther, Greg Palmer, is a conven-
tional dairy farmer who grows
crops for his own herd.
John says he believes the
benets of grazing include
better herd health, low start-
up capital and less work. Its
denitely a start-up friendly
system. And, the more work
the cows do for me the better,
he says, referring to the cows
eating the grasses and clovers
instead of having feed brought
to them and leaving their ma-
nure on the pastures instead of
it having to be hauled out.
As soon as they started
milking, Palmers immediately
started the transition to have
their farm certied organic.
The process is not simple, but
the young couple believed in
what they were doing. They
completed the process and
started selling their milk to Or-
ganic Valley in 2006.
John and Meghan have four
children: Faith, 11, Ethan, 6,
Norah, 3, and Naomi, 2. Hav-
ing children was part of why
having an organic farm was
important to them. I wanted
the kids to be able to be with
me on the farm without hav-
ing to worry about them being
exposed to chemicals, John
says.
For the Palmers, the impor-
tance of farming organically
is not just about their family.
There is a lot of talk about
saving family farms, John
says. For the last 25 years
Organic Valley has been do-
ing something to make that
happen. Many of the Organic
Valley producers have young
children, or grown children
looking to join the operation. I
think that is unique and com-
mendable.

Early morning explosion damages IL/Norplex plant in Postville
The Postville Fire Department and Ambulance service were dispatched Monday, June 17 at around 1:20 a.m. to the
Industrial Laminates/Norplex Inc. plant outside Postville following a report of an explosion at the plant involving injuries to
employees of the plant. Upon arrival at the scene, firefighters were directed to the southeast corner of the plant, where
blue smoke was rolling from the side of the building and from the roof. Postville Fire Chief Jeffrey Bohr was notified of
three injuries. One critically injured person was transported by ambulance to Veterans Memorial Hospital in Waukon and
then airlifted to the burn unit at the University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics in Iowa City. Another victim was transported
by a second ambulance to Veterans Memorial Hospital, treated and released. The third victim refused treatment at the
scene, according to a report from Fire Chief Bohr.
Damage to the plant itself is currently estimated at five to seven million dollars. Pictured above is a damaged section of
the building that sits atop the area where the explosion actually took place. Firefighters accompanied plant maintenance
personnel into the building, where they used fire extinguishers to put out some smaller fires. Firefighters also assisted
maintenance staff in the shutting down of boilers and valves that transfer explosive and flammable materials used in the
plants manufacturing process. The explosion triggered the plants emergency alarms and fire suppression systems and
Fire Chief Bohr commended the plants staff for their well-organized emergency response plan, accountability, staging
and communication with fire officials.
The Iowa State Fire Marshalls Office continues to investigate the explosion and fire, but has made an initial ruling
that the incident was accidental in nature. Further information will be released as it becomes available. Assisting the
Postville Fire Department at the scene were the Postville Ambulance Service, Monona Ambulance Service, Luana Fire
Department, Decorah Fire Department, Postville Police Department, Allamakee County Sheriffs Department, Allamakee
County Emergency Management and the Iowa State Fire Marshalls Office. Photo courtesy of Postville Herald.

said Goldstein.
I am proud to be a member
of Organic Valley Cooperative,
John says. He has worked with
Organic Valley in promoting
organics and family farms. Two
years ago in March he went to
Washington, D.C. and talked to
legislative members on Capitol
Hill, and he was part of a study
which looked at how the nutri-
tional value of milk is affected
by how the cows eat.
Organic Valley has a lot of
great people who work for us.
It is because of them we are
able to keep farming the way
we do, he says.
Although John is an advo-
cate for grazing and organic
farming, he says its important
for each farmer to nd what
works best for his operation.
This is what works for us, he
says.
In addition to helping out on
the farm as she can, Meghan is
a registered nurse and teaches
courses at Luther College. She
is also working on her Masters
Degree in Nursing.

As a farmer-owned coop-
erative with a regional business
model, our organic milk is pro-
duced, packaged and distribut-
ed right in the region where it
is farmed to ensure fewer miles
from farm to table and to sup-
port our local economies and
communities, says Goldstein.
Hay Expo set to take
place Wednesday and
Thursday at Regancrest
The 2013 Farm Progress Hay
Expo, the nations largest two-
day hay event, will showcase
the latest technology for hay
and forage producers Wednes-
day and Thursday, June 19 and
20 at the Regancrest Holsteins
farm located north of Waukon
on State Highway 9. The event
will take place from 9 a.m. to 4
p.m. both days, and the public
is welcome. Admission is free,
but there is a per vehicle park-
ing fee.
We were delighted when
the opportunity to host the Hay

nat i onal
e v e n t s
manager. Regancrest is well-
known and respected in the
area for their genetics and
farming practices and we
couldnt think of a better place
to hold the Hay Expo.
This year, the Hay Expo will
introduce a Lunch & Learn ses-
sion on hay marketing, which
is sponsored by the event's new
partner, Hay & Forage Grower.
Bruce Anderson, University
of Nebraska Extension forage
specialist, will offer hay buy-
ers and sellers tips on how they
can maximize their resources.
Hell also take a look at cur-
rent hay prices and where he
thinks theyll head. The Lunch
& Learn session will take place
in the dining tent, located next
to the concessions.
Since the rst show in 1986,
the Hay Expo has grown and
evolved but continues to be the
best place for forage producers
to see and learn about products
and services in their industry.
A 10-acre exhibit eld will
highlight displays from the
major and shortline specialty
manufacturers, seed, building
and storage facility suppliers,
and a range of related product
suppliers. Exhibitors plan to
showcase a host of new prod-
ucts aimed at boosting the ef-
f i ci ency

hibit eld to the different dem-
onstration locations.
The exhibit eld is the
place to discuss seed, hay mar-
keting, crop production, con-
servation and more. There will
be educational exhibits, hay
and forage grounds and oth-
ers, notes Jungmann.
The Allamakee County
Cattlemen will serve food and
drink on site and the Allama-
kee County Dairy Association
will serve ice cream and milk
from the local WW Homestead
Dairy.

John says on the day that
photographer David Nevala
(www.davidnevala.com) from
Madison, WI came to shoot the
photos for Organic Valley last
October they were blessed
with a really beautiful day.
The pastures were still green,
and the sunlight that day was
ideal.
He does a lovely job cap-
turing our farmers and the es-
sence of our farmer-owned co-
operative and were pleased to
work with him over the years,
says Goldstein.
The photographer and his
assistant (who also had a dairy
farm background) came that
morning and photographed
the family as they did morning
chores and went with them as
they took the herd out to pas-
ture. They left for a few hours
in the afternoon to let the kids
unwind from having them
there, and then came back in
the evening.
That is when we got the
best photos, says John. The
sun was going down, and we
were just out there milling
around and playing with the
cows. It even felt like we were
part of a living picture that had
been made to perfection. The
light was just right. We literally
have hundreds of really amaz-
ing photos from that night.
It was one of those evening
photos that became the label
for Organic Valley's 2% sold
in this region. The photo on the
2% milk labels features John
with Ethan and Norah.
They made it easy, John
says about the photographer
and his assistant. They (the
photographer and his assistant)
are yet another example of the
really great people tied in with
Organic Valley. Everyone who
works for them has their mis-
sion of keeping family farms
the forefront of what they do.
The Palmers found out in
February that one of their pho-
tos was chosen for a product
label. Organic Valley plans on
having photos of real farmers
on all of their products, with
photos varying by geographic
region and product.
In each of Organic Valleys
regions, they generally dis-
tribute four varieties of milk:
fat-free, 1%, 2% and whole.
For each variety, there is a dif-
ferent farm family featured for
about 18 months. The 2% milk
which features the Palmers is
distributed primarily to states
in the Midwest region, includ-
ing Iowa, Indiana, Wisconsin,
South Dakota and Minnesota.
This encourages food
transparency and the whole
notion of know your farmer.
Our farmer-owners produce
milk with passion - they love
their cows and farming, and
take great pride in producing
the best quality organic milk,
and in doing so further sustain-
able agriculture, for the health

The Consequences of Underage Drinking
The short- and long-term
consequences that arise from
underage alcohol consumption
are astonishing in their range
and magnitude, adversely
affecting adolescents, the
people around them, and
society as a whole. When
you are armed with the facts,
you can help your children
choose not to drink alcohol.
According to the National
Institute on Alcohol Abuse and
Alcoholism:
A person who begins
drinking as a young teen is
four times more likely to
develop alcohol dependence
than someone who waits until
adulthood to use alcohol.
During adolescence
signicant changes occur in the
body, including the formation
of new networks in the brain.
Alcohol use during this time
may affect brain development.
Motor vehicle crashes
are the leading cause of death
among youth ages 15 to 20,
and the rate of fatal crashes
among alcohol-involved
drivers between 16 and 20
years old is more than twice
the rate for alcohol-involved
drivers 21 and older. Alcohol
use also is linked with youthful
deaths by drowning, suicide
and homicide.
Alcohol use is associated
with many adolescent risk
behaviors, including other
drug use and delinquency,
weapon carrying and ghting,
and perpetrating or being the
victim of date rape.

MAKE FAMILY TIME
ACTIVE
Summer provides an op-
portunity for families to spend
time together that will create
fun and memories. School is
out and its a great time to plan
some family time. Activities,
such as going to the park or a
day hike, are great ways your
family can bond and be physi-
cally active at the same time.
Try planning family adven-
tures that include physical ac-
tivity at least two to three times
a month. Planning activities
ahead of time gives the entire
family something to look for-
ward to doing together. Daily
activities or family adventures
do not have to be grand to be
fun or memorable.
Physical activity as a fam-
ily, especially those activities
that average at least 30 minutes
a day, allow everyone to get
some daily movement while
providing great opportunities
to bond. Its also a great way to
watch your children learn and
grow. You could plan an hour
family walk or bike ride after
dinner two times a week.
By planning a set time to be
physically active, you will be
more likely to stick to it, espe-
cially if it allows your family
to be together. Get the kids in-
volved, and make a list of all
the activities they would like
to try.
Here are just a few exam-
ples families can do together
while being physically active:
visit zoos and museums that
have free or reduced rates for
kids on special days; have pa-
per airplane or paper boat races
or try making and ying your
own kites; plant a small garden
or container garden and watch
it grow; have sack, peanut or
egg races.
Plan a picnic, go swimming
at the local lake, pond or pool,
or go camping in the back-
yard. Make your own bubble
solution and have fun blowing
bubbles. Plan a trip to local or
county places of interest; most
local libraries have books and
resources on these and many
other topics to help get sum-
mer family fun started!

formation on raising a healthy
family, visit Iowa State Univer-
sity Extension and Outreach at

by Bob Beach
During its regular meeting
Monday, June 17, the Allama-
kee County Board of Supervi-
sors met with several owners
of businesses on Makee Drive
who told the Board that the
road frequently develops deep
potholes that have caused dam-
age to their trucks. Representa-
tives from ve of the six area
businesses (three on Makee
Drive and three on Four Cor-
ners Road) asked the Board to
consider paving Makee Drive,
noting that other roads that
dont get as much trafc have
been scheduled for paving.
Allamakee County Engi-
neer Brian Ridenour said that
the Iowa Department of Trans-
portation does a trafc count
on roads at the Countys re-
quest every four years and that
a count was done in 2009 that
showed an average of 190 ve-
hicles per day travel that road,
noting that there are other roads
in the county that see similar
trafc that arent paved.
He explained that roads
are paved on a priority-based
point system based on the type
of road, the trafc count, the
closest paved parallel road and
the percentage of truck trafc.
Bonus points would also be
awarded in cases where pri-
vate donations and special as-
sessments would cover 65% of
the cost of the paving project,
adding that the cost of concrete
paving ranges from $500,000
to $700,000 per mile. Based
on that point system, Rid-
enour said that there at least a
dozen projects ahead of Makee
Drive.
Board Chairman Larry
Schellhammer suggested that
larger gravel could be tried on
the road in hopes of reducing
washboarding and potholes.
Ridenour agreed to add larger
gravel to the road to see if it
would help the situation.
MAKEE MANOR
The Board also met with Al-
lamakee County Veterans Af-
fairs Director Heather Home-
wood, who asked about future
plans for moving some County
ofces to Makee Manor. She
told the Board that it would not
be convenient to move her of-
ce to Makee Manor because
her work with veterans often
entails visits to the ofces of
the Treasurer and Recorder
in the courthouse. Chairman
Schellhammer said that there
are no immediate plans to move
any ofces to Makee Manor,
but that the Board appreciates
being notied that Veterans Af-
fairs should not be considered
for such a move.
Also related to Makee Man-
or, the Board decided to place
an advertisement for auction-
eers who would be interested
in conducting an auction of
equipment and materials at
the facility. The advertisement
would advise auctioneers to ex-
press their interest and request
more information by July 8.
In other business, the
Board approved the low bid
of $77,699.62 submitted by
Rhiem Construction for a con-
crete box culvert south of Vol-
ney and set July 8 at 9:30 a.m.
as the date and time to open
bids for concrete pavement
patching throughout the coun-
ty. The Board also approved the
purchase of a new John Deere
wheel loader for the Secondary
Roads Department from Mar-
tin Equipment in Dubuque for
$181,000, which includes the
trade-in value of a 1990 Cat
wheel loader.
Following the meeting the
Board traveled with Ridenour
to view the progress of the on-
going paving project on Bear
Creek Drive.

NEIA RC&D announced as
one of six grant winners
The Northeast Iowa Re-
source Conservation and De-
velopment (RC&D), head-
quarterd in Postville, was one
of six RC&Ds nationwide to
be awarded a grant by The Na-
tional Association of RC&D
Councils (NARC&DC) for a
project to help facilitate under-
standing of State Forest Action
Plans.
The NARC&DC received
funding for this project from
the U.S. Forest Service to en-
sure that rural residents and
communities in RC&D areas
have the opportunity to meet
with government and non-gov-
ernment ofcials to help with
implementation of the plans.
Karl Della Rosa of the U.S.
Forest Service, State and Pri-
vate Forestry, noted, Success-
ful implementation of State
Forest Action Plans depends
ultimately upon the involve-
ment and actions of local land-
owners, stakeholders and com-
munities. RC&D Councils are
ideally situated and connected
to advance local efforts to ad-
dress State Forest Action Plan
priorities and forest landscape
conservation and restoration
goals throughout the nation.
In addition to the Northeast
Iowa RC&D, ve other RC&D
Councils were selected to par-
ticipate in this project. They
include: Cawaco Resource
Conservation & Development
Council, Inc. of Alabama;
Chestatee/Chattachoochee
Resource Conservation and
Development Council, Inc.
of Georgia; Golden Hills Re-
source Conservation and De-
velopment (RC&D) of south-
western Iowa; Headwaters
RC&D Area, Inc. of Montana;
and Hiawatha Valley Resource
Conservation and Develop-
ment Council of Minnesota.
Woodland health has been
an important focus area for
Northeast Iowa RC&D since
its establishment in 1987. The
organizations has been actively
involved in a myriad of proj-
ects to educate landowners,
combat invasive species, and
help woodland owners maxi-
mize the value of their timber.
Richard Kittelson, the
RC&Ds forester recently
completed a project titled "Call
Before You Cut," a program
designed to help landowners
realize the value of their wood-
lands and to encourage them to
utilize a local public or private
forester to ensure their wood-
land's long-term health. He is
currently involved in an ini-
tiative to help landowners en-
rolled in Iowas Forest Reserve
Program care for their wood-
lands to help them fulll their
vision of beautiful, healthy
woodlands. The scope of these
two projects has reached over
4,500 landowners in northeast
Iowa.
This new grant will allow
the RC&D to build on the re-
lationships made through past
projects and for the rst time
bring together the landowner
partners and the government
partners in a public forum,
says Richard Kittelson.
More detailed information
about the meeting will be re-
leased this fall. For more in-
formation about this program,
or for a free consultation on
woodlands, contact Richard
Kittelson at 563-864-7112.

Crosse, WI, Dubuque and Dav-
enport, Iowa will be hosting
The Great Race National Event
(HEMMINGS MOTOR NEWS
GREAT RACE presented by
Hagerty) taking place June 22
through June 30. The event
travels from Saint Paul, MN to
Mobile, AL traveling near the
Mississippi River and the Great
River Road, a National Scenic
By-Way.
Jane Regan, Allamakee
County MRPC Commissioner
appointed by Governor Brans-
tad to the Iowa MRPC in June

the 75th Anniversary of the
Great River Road, which was
The Great Race to travel through Lansing this weekend
established legislatively by ap-
pointment of President Frank-
lin Roosevelt in 1938. The 10
states that make up the Nation-
al Mississippi River Parkway
Commission are among the
major sponsors of the Great
Race this year to bring aware-
ness to the Great River Road
and to celebrate its 75th An-
niversary.
The 100 cars participating
in The Great Race and their
land/road crews will overnight
in La Crosse, WI Saturday,
June 22, with the rst car leav-
ing La Crosse, WI at approxi-
mately 7:45 a.m. Sunday, June
23, crossing the Cass Street
Bridge and traveling south on
Hwy. 44 and Hwy. 26 to Lan-
sing, with the rst car arriving
in Lansing at approximately
9:20 a.m.
From Lansing, the next
town they travel through is
Marquette before crossing the
bridge to Prairie du Chien, WI
traveling south on the Wis-
consin side of the river before
entering Dubuque for a lunch
stop. Race ofcials advised
Regan they are not traveling
through the towns of Water-
ville, Waukon or Harpers Fer-
ry, so she anticipates the route
will include the Lansing Harp-
ers Road to State Forest Road
and enter Marquette via Hwy
76 South.
The Great Race normally
runs on a West to East route
across the United States and
this year is traveling North to
South crisscrossing the Missis-
sippi River and traveling por-
tions of the Great River Road
to help bring recognition of the
75th Anniversary of the Great
River Road.
The 100 entrants in The
Great Race must travel in a
classic, antique, or vintage au-
tomobile manufactured prior to
1969. Teams of two (a driver
and a navigator), participate in
timed, controlled speed, endur-
ance rallies not top-speed
races. Each vehicle must fol-
low a prescribed common route
while attempting to maintain
assigned average speeds. Spec-
tators will see a 1916 Hudson

Area residents reminded of free compost
at yard waste site available for public use
by Bob Beach
During its regular meeting
Monday, June 17, the Waukon
City Council again turned its
attention to the West Side De-
velopment Project, which in-
cludes the closure of the Town
and Country Trailer Court on
West Main Street and the relo-
cation of the trailer courts cur-
rent residents.
One of those residents told
the Council that she has been
unable to secure a loan to relo-
cate and that there are no more
empty lots for mobile homes in
Waukon - all have been spoken
for. She said that a trailer had
been offered to her for $1,500,
but the current owner needs a
commitment to purchase it be-
fore July 1. She also said that
she would accept the Citys
offer of $1,500 for the title to
her current trailer, but that her
husband would prefer to han-
dle its demolition and removal
himself in the hopes of getting
some extra money for the re-
sulting scrap materials.
The Council agreed to her
request, on the condition that a
contract be developed requiring
that the trailer be completely
removed by a certain date. The
Council authorized Zoning Ad-
ministrator Al Lyon to approve
that contract and future small
contracts for up to $1,500 to
quickly handle future similar
circumstances.
Lyon said that he is still at-
tempting to secure bids for
the moving of those trailers
that can be moved and for the
demolition of the trailers that
cant be moved. He said that
he is also working to schedule
inspections of the trailers to
make that determination and
requested that no notices be
sent to residents of the trailer
court until he has completed
relocation plans. The Council
agreed that 60-day eviction
notices would not be sent until
Lyon has secured contractors
for the trailer relocations and
demolitions. Lyon also encour-

"Mad Mixture" program held at Robey Memorial Library ...
One hundred and two individuals attended the "Mad Mixture" program held at Robey Memorial Library in Waukon
Thursday, June 6. "Mad Mixture" is one of the Grout Museum Districts Outreach Programs, and it is designed to nurture
a childs love of science. With the use of liquid nitrogen, those in attendance learned about the three phases of matter:
solids, liquids and gas (with lots of explosions included) from Grout Museum presenters Hannah Filkins and Tim Gau (left
to right in above photo). The group also learned about the chemical reaction of combustion while watching demonstrations
with ash powder, ash paper and an exploding balloon. Attendees were also able to get up close and personal with two
Corn Snakes and a Python, learning their habits and characteristics. The program ended with each child making Oobleck,
a mixture of corn starch and water that acts like a liquid when being poured but like a solid when a force is acting on it.
Oobleck gets its name from the Dr. Seuss book "Bartholomew and the Oobleck". Submitted photo.

Made possible with hotel/motel tax funds ...
The new John Deere X739 lawn tractor displayed above
by Waukon Park and Recreation employee Jeff Fern rep-
resents the first major purchase for the City of Waukon
using funds produced by the four-percent hotel/motel tax
approved by city voters in November of 2011. The voter-
approved resolution requires that 75% of the funds pro-
duced by the local hotel/motel tax be used to fund park and
recreation facilities and programs, the first year's allotment
of the tax funds helping to purchase the lawn tractor for
the Waukon Park and Recreation Department. Waukon
City Park Director Mike Van Gorp says the new tractor
features a zero-turn radius and four-wheel drive, allowing
for significant time savings in mowing and trimming the 80
acres the Park and Recreation Department is responsible
for maintaining not only in the Waukon City Park but at the
Waukon Airport and other City-owned locations. Waukon
City Council member Joe Cunningham adds that he is
happy to see the Park and Recreation Department be able
to make updates to equipment that are suitable to the work-
load and terrain maintained by the department, making for
a more aesthetically-pleasing City Park and other locations
for residents and area visitors to enjoy.
aged trailer court residents to
contact him if they have any
questions moving forward, as
ghting rumors would only
make his task more difcult.
Councilman John Ellingson
wanted it made clear that the
City has no interest in own-
ing or developing the property
once the trailer court has been
removed and encouraged real
estate developers to share their
ideas with the Council.
Surveyor Roger Mohn, rep-
resenting the Welsh family,
asked the Council for a prog-
ress report on the extension
of sanitary sewer services to
a planned residential develop-
ment on the Welsh property on
the southwest edge of Waukon.
Mayor Loren Beneke said that
the Citys efforts to secure the
necessary easements to extend
the sewer as originally dis-
cussed have failed, but that an
alternative is being explored.
Lyle TeKippe of TeKippe En-
gineering said that the alterna-
tive plan would be consider-
ably more expensive and that
he would update cost estimates
before the Councils next meet-
ing.
Mayor Beneke noted that
the alternative plan for the
sewer would entail not only ad-
ditional expense, but additional
risk that the sewer would not
drain properly. He suggested
that a development agreement
should be drafted in order to
formalize the commitment of
both the City and the Welsh
family to the project.
The Council appointed
Lidia Debes to ll a vacancy
on the Waukon Planning and
Zoning Commission due to the
resignation of Dave Duncklee,
and appointed Joe Grifth to
ll a vacancy on the Park and
Recreation Board due to the
resignation of Corey Shelton.
The Council also approved
a renewal of the yard waste
compost agreement with TW
Grinding and compost servic-
es, LLC, reminding residents
that the compost is available
free of charge at the Allamakee
County Fairgrounds.
In other business, the Coun-
cil approved a bid of $15,983
for the repair of the Northview
Estates lift station on the rec-
ommendation of Water and
Sewer Superintendent Bob
Campbell. The Council also
approved the purchase of com-
bination soccer goals and goal
posts from Decker Sporting
Goods for $20,170, a mower
deck from Waukon Implement
for $10,742.68, and authorized
the payment of $10,000 to
Waukon Economic Develop-
ment for the Waukon Works
downtown study (the rst of
two installments).

The Lansing City Coun-
cil met Monday night, June
14 and adopted the consent
agenda, which consisted of
Council minutes from the
June 3 meeting and scal year
payments.
Jeanette Moschel, a citizen
on Wall Street, presented pho-
tos of her property showing
damage created by dirt, wa-
ter and erosion. Moschel also
said mold was becoming a
problem in her basement and
that all these issues have de-
veloped since the completion
of the Southtown water/sewer
project. Mayor Mike Verdon
said the project was under
warranty until November 15
and that he would contact
Davy Engineering to rem-
edy the situation. He advised
Moschel to create and submit
an estimate of damages and
costs she has incurred trying
to clean up.
Another citizen, Jackie
Ronfeldt, addressed the
Council regarding a pool of
water in front of her trailer on
South 4th Street. She said the
hole, which was created by
the street department some
years ago, lls up with wa-
ter when it rains and has no
place to drain. The situation
creates a muddy lawn which
is impossible to mow and is
a breeding ground for mos-
quitoes. Mayor Verdon and
the Council discussed various
solutions, nally agreeing to
take a look at the property
and x the problem as soon
as possible.
Heath Draeger submitted
a water/sewer report from
People Service which item-
ized the operation and main-
tenance tasks completed in
the past month. Draeger said
there were communication
problems with the wells and
reservoirs and were being ad-
dressed. One of the pumps
is in poor condition but still
functioning. Draeger advised
the Council to plan for a
$12,000 to $15,000 expense
to replace it within three
years.
Police Chief Ed Stahl re-
ported the Blackhawk Bridge
maintenance crew have re-
quested 24/7 trafc control
at the end of the Bridge. He
said motorists are some-
times ignoring the lights and
even stopping on the Bridge
to watch the crews at work.
There is to be no stopping on
the bridge. Violations for ei-
ther offense will be cited.
The Council discussed the
options for lling the vacant
Council position and voted to
appoint a replacement rather
than hold a special election.
Interested citizens may sub-
mit their applications to the
City Clerk prior to July 15.
The term of the appointment
will be until the next general
election (November, 2013).
Mayor Verdon opened a
discussion regarding the 2010
Census, which counted Lan-
sings population as 999. Be-
cause the total was less than
1,000, available grant money
was reduced signicantly. The
Council discussed requesting
conducting a revised Census
in hopes that the population
numbers would be higher
and more accurate. Verdon
says the $10,000 expense for
conducting the survey would
be justied if an additional
$180,000 would be generated
for the town.
In other business, the Coun-
cil agreed to hire a temporary
worker for lawn mowing and
general labor for the next sev-
eral weeks; the position will
be advertised and posted as
soon as possible. The Council
also reviewed and approved
moving forward with a Haz-
ard Mitigation Grant applica-
tion, a request from the Lions
Club for Fish Days services,
a liquor license renewal for
Lansing General Store and a
Flood Plain Permit for Chris
Strub.
City Treasurer Becky
Seitz, citing family and ca-
reer demands, has resigned
her post. The City will seek
applications to replace her.
It was also noted that the
Blackhawk Bridge lights will
be out until the current main-
tenance work is completed.

was the two percent allowable
growth granted for scal year
2014, as well as a one-time
supplement of an additional
two percent. For the 2015 s-
cal year, allowable growth
climbs up to four percent.
Various other notable changes
include the establishment of
a state job-posting board on-
line, instead of postings in the
Des Moines Register. Student
teaching will also be expanded
from one semester to one full
year. Additionally, an incentive
program will be started to help
put instructors into hard to
staff areas.
Herold continued by ex-
plaining other changes that
will ultimately measure and
reward staff based on exam
scores. Standardized exams
would move to the last quarter
of the year, with test scores be-
ing combined with other crite-
ria to rank schools across the
state of Iowa. With all of these
anticipated changes, Herold
said there are many details
that need to come out. A lot
of things still need to be dis-
cussed, he added.
One nal item Herold point-
ed out was that a petition has
been presented to Governor
Branstad requesting school
start dates to be moved back to
after the Labor Day holiday.
Next, the building princi-
pals gave quick reports on their
respective programs. Senior
High School Assistant Princi-
pal/Activities Director Jenny
Garin reported that the summer
sports season is off to a wet,
but good start. Jed Hemanns
Construction class completed a
new softball shed this year, and
speakers have been installed in
the baseball and softball com-
plex, hopefully providing for
better audio no matter where
fans choose to sit.
Senior High School Princi-
pal Dan Diercks reported that
semester tests went well as the
school year nished up. He did
note that the large number of
weather-related make-up days
resulted in some difcult test-
ing schedules for classes that
includes seniors and under-
classmen, as underclassmen
still had over a week of class
left after the seniors depar-
ture. However, he said he was
proud of how staff and students
ended strong despite the sched-
uling conicts that arose. Sum-
mer school is also in full swing

now, Diercks added, and thanks
to a partnership with HAWC,
students are beneting from a
lower teacher-to-student ratio
this summer.
Diercks mentioned that sev-
eral staff members had recent-
ly spent time looking at crisis
management. Through the
help of Allamakee Emergency
Management, the district re-
ceived a brief training session.
This was very, very good
training and it has got faculty
members talking, he said,
about being prepared should
a safety emergency ever arise.
Transportation Director Randy
Nordheim also took part in the
session, and noted, They gave
us a lot more questions than
answers. Diercks added that
there will be work done to for-
mulate an emergency plan for
the district.
Following the principals,
Buildings and Maintenance
Director Dennis Mahr ran
down the checklist of summer
projects. After a rain delay,
the senior high gym roof is -
nally done, with bleacher and
electrical work scheduled to be
nished later this week. Addi-
tional roof work within the dis-
trict may be completed yet this
week, while a number of door
projects are also wrapping up
at the different centers.
Jean Brink reported that
technology items are moving
along well. Junior and senior
high laptops are being refur-
bished, and new computers
and a server are in place at dif-
ferent sites. In her food service
report, Julie Magner said the
summer lunch program is av-
eraging about 100 students for
breakfast and 175 to 200 for
lunch.
Wrapping up the reports sec-
tion, Nordheim reported just
over 375,000 miles driven this
past year, a decrease of about
7,500 miles from the previous
year. While he couldnt pin-
point the cause of the decrease,
he speculated that a number of
cancelled athletic trips played
a part in the downward tip this
year. As for the coming year,
the district will run one less
daily route. Due to a retire-
ment, the driver of the elimi-
nated route simply transferred
to the vacated route.
Under information items,
Herold noted that the Iowa
Association of School Boards
Management Conference will
be July 17 in Altoona, if any
members wished to attend. He
also pointed out the IASB Call
for Legislative Resolutions list,
noting that the Board would
make its ofcial picks at its
July meeting.
Librarian Linda Groe pre-
sented her annual report. Cir-
culation was slightly down at
the elementary locations (an
impact of the large number of
snow days, she guesses), but
usage at the junior and senior
high level was up ten percent.
Groe said they continue to
weed out and add in new titles
each year, and she thanked the
Board for the support it pro-
vides annually.
First on the new business
agenda for the meeting were
just a handful of personnel
items. Salary increases were
approved for 21st Century
staff, and Daniel Bechtel was
hired as a regular bus driver.
Camie Treptau was okayed
to be assistant musical direc-
tor and Bryce Muenchow was
accepted as volunteer musical
director, both pending back-
ground checks.
Changes for both the stu-
dent and staff handbooks for
2013-2014 were approved.
Herold noted that a big item
was the addition of the policy
that anyone attending a school-
sponsored event must be iden-
tiable, with no masks or face
coverings allowed. He pointed
out that this is a safety measure
and both the boys and girls
state sports governing bodies
are adopting the same stan-
dards.
Approval was given for
Sunday usage of the wres-
tling room July 7, as well as
the discontinuation of the cash
ow resolution, a change made
per Department of Education
guidelines. Pending Board
President approval, bills were
approved to be paid through
June 30. A September 13 out-
of-state trip to the Cannons
on the Fort event in Prairie du
Chien, WI was okayed for the
eighth grade class. The nights
nal item, revisions to the fa-
cilities and room request form,
was also accepted.
ACSD Board of Directors
approves land purchase
near high school at
June 14 special session
by Brianne Eilers
The Allamakee Community School District (ACSD) Board
of Directors met Friday morning, June 14 in a special session
to discuss the purchase of 11 acres of land located west of
Waukon High School. There was a public hearing regarding
the issue, but there were no written or oral comments. The
Board then decided to go ahead and begin the process of pur-
chasing the 11 acres for $137,500, contingent upon approval
by the City of Waukon, Plat Review Committee and Allama-
kee County Board of Supervisors. The purchase will be paid
for using Physical Plant and Equipment Funds.
According to ACSD Superintendent Dave Herold, the
property will be used for something agricultural, though the
use determination has not been set in stone yet. ACSD will be
exploring possibilities such as using the land to grow crops to
be consumed by the school district, using it for the school's
FFA program, or possibly partnering with NICC to use the
land for ag-related classes. As of now, it does not look like the
property will be developed into practice elds or anything of
that sort.

Carol Hasvold reported that
a number of courts in the state
donated books at the State
Conference to her project to
provide books to enhance the
libraries at state prisons. Three
hundred books were collected
and then several individuals
took these books to be distrib-
uted to prisons in their area.
Books have been distributed
to seven prisons. Hasvold also
shared pictures from the con-
ference which had been at-
tended by Hasvold, Mona Day,
Rebecca McCabe and Wendy
Novak.
Mary Anne Iliff shared an
article regarding the Iowa ag
from the current issue of Iowa

from a submission by the Iowa
Daughters of the American
Revolution.
In parliamentary procedure,
members of the chapter were
reminded of proper recitation
of the Pledge to the Flag. One
nation under God is a single
phrase and is not to be recited
with a comma following na-
tion.
Carol Hasvold gave a pre-
sentation about the history of
Hannah Lee Chapter. She noted
that the chapter was organized
in 1919 and was named after
the daughter of the Declaration
of Independence signer, Rich-
ard Henry Lee. The Lees lived
on Chantilly Plantation near
Mount Vernon. She shared in-
formation about the kinds of
tasks a young woman would
have been doing daily during
the revolutionary period.
The chapters vellum char-
ter was displayed and it was
noted that it has suffered ex-
tensive damage over the years
and possible conservation was
discussed. Perhaps the most

Efgy Mounds seeks input
on resurfacing park trail
The National Park Service
(NPS) and Efgy Mounds
National Monument invite the
public to review and comment
on a proposal to resurface a
portion of the popular Fire
Point Loop trail. The proposal
will be available for public re-
view and comment until June
28.
The park is proposing to
apply a surface of fresh wood
chips over the existing wood
chip surface of the trail, in a
manner consistent with the trail
standards outlined in the parks
new General Management
Plan. The existing surface has
degraded over the years due to
age and an abundance of foot
trafc. Park staff have found
the wood chip surface greatly
improves traction and visitor
safety, particularly on sloping
sections of the heavily-used
trail.
Monument intends to engage
the public and other interested
parties in the coming years in
a couple of important planning
efforts involving the trails and
their surrounding landscape.
It is hoped that these upcom-
ing planning efforts will more
directly address the question of
what surfacing material, if any,
best meets the needs of visi-
tors and the parks resources in
the long-term. Until that better
guidance is available, the park
intends to maintain the status
quo as a short-term solution to
an emerging safety issue.
The National Park Service
invites members of the general
public to share their thoughts on
this strategy. To view or down-
load a copy of the proposal, go
to http://parkplanning.nps.gov/
EFMOwoodchips. Comments
will be considered until June
28. Anyone with questions
about the proposal or hiking
trails at Efgy Mounds Na-
tional Monument may contact

Celebration
Waukon softball team splits pair of early
contests, waits out severe storm in Waverly
The Waukon softball team
had a week of extremes this
past week, having a busy
start to the week get a little
lighter courtesy of Mother
Nature following a split of
two games. The Lady Indians
started the week with an 8-1
loss at Class 3A 11th-rated
Crestwood Monday, June 10
before defeating MFL/Mar-
Mac at home, 8-2, Tuesday,
June 11. The most extreme
portion of the week, how-
ever, was when the softball
Tribe ended up waiting out a
tornado warning under tables
in a locker room Wednesday,
June 12 shortly after arriving
at Waverly.
The even week of abbrevi-
ated competition leaves the
Indians with an 8-6 overall
record on the season that
drops their Northeast Iowa
Conference (NEIC) mark to
2-3. That storm-claimed June
12 contest at Waverly has
been rescheduled for Tues-
day, June 18.
Prior to that make-up con-
test, the Indians were sched-
uled to host Charles City
Monday, June 17 before then
playing back-to-back NEIC
doubleheaders, Wednesday,
June 19 at Decorah and then
at home Thursday, June 20
against Oelwein. A com-
pletely full following week
for the softball Tribe begins
with back-to-back NEIC road
games before a non-confer-
ence home date with Kee.
at Crestwood ...
The recent offensive ane-
mia the softball Indians have
suffered from continued in
their Northeast Iowa Confer-
ence road game at Crestwood
Monday, June 10. The Indians
managed just six hits against
the Cadets, with only one of
the games seven innings see-
ing more than one Indian hit
on the way to an 8-1 Indian
loss.
Ironically, it only took one
of those Indian hits to produce
that lone run, senior left eld-
er Brittany Johnson crushing
a sixth-inning solo homerun
to nally get the Indians on
the board. That Johnson blast
was followed by a double by
senior third baseman Marissa
Shelton, but, just like the lone
Indian singles in four other in-
nings, that hit was also turned
harmlessly away to keep the
Tribe at that single run.
Despite their offensive
woes, Indian defense kept the
host Cadets pretty well under
wraps in the games early in-
nings, a rst-inning double
being Crestwoods only hit in
the rst three frames but an
Indian miscue allowing that
lone double to turn into a 1-0
Cadet headstart.
The 11th-rated Cadets
started to heat up their offense
midway through the contest,
pounding out two singles and
a double for another run in
the fourth and taking advan-
tage of an Indian error with
three singles, a double and a
homerun to balloon their lead
to 8-0 through ve complete
frames. Despite nally get-
ting on the board in the top
of the next inning and bounc-
ing back to stie Crestwoods
offense in the bottom of that
sixth frame, the Indians got
just one of those lone singles
again in the seventh to remain
on the short end of the games
8-1 end result.
Freshman Leslie Sivesind
suffered the pitching loss for
the Indians, giving up four
hits and two earned runs in
striking out one batter in the
games rst four innings.
Sophomore Thea Meyer came
on in relief for the games -
nal two frames, allowing ve
hits and ve earned runs out
of six scored by Crestwood,
also striking out one batter.
Senior Daneshia Snitker
led the Indian offense with
two singles in three at-bats,
but it was Johnson who de-
livered the big blow for the
lone Indian run in the contest.
Shelton also recorded a dou-
ble for the Tribes only other
multi-base hit.
vs. MFL/MarMac ...
The softball Indians were
out-hit by the visiting Bull-
dogs from MFL/MarMac in
their Tuesday, June 11 home
game rescheduled from near-
ly two weeks earlier, May 29.
The Tribe diamond dwellers
were out-hit by their guests,
10-7, but took advantage of
six walks with some timely
late offense to secure an 8-2
victory.
The Indians traded some
early threats with MFL/Mar-
Mac, each squad advancing
runners into scoring position
within the rst three frames.
But timely plays by both de-
fenses erased those best early
chances and kept a 0-0 knot
on the scoreboard through
three complete innings.
The Tribe nally got its
rst scoreboard break in the
bottom of the fourth inning,
following a lead-off error
in junior shortstop Kiersten
Christiansons at-bat with an
advancing ground-out by se-
nior catcher Courtney Wikan
and a run-scoring single from
junior rst baseman McKayla
Stock to make for a 1-0 In-
dian advantage.
MFL/MarMac created its
own scoring debut with a pair
of singles wrapped around a
double to grab a 2-1 lead in
the top of the fth. But the
Indians answered in a big
way, getting a one-out double
from senior pitcher Daneshia
Snitker before the senior tan-
dem of center elder Brit-
tany Johnson and right elder
Hannah Fahey joined her in
loading the bases via walks.
Christianson then unleashed
a two-run single to score
Snitker and Johnson before a
walk issued to Wikan loaded
the bases once more. Stolen
bases and passed balls helped
Fahey and Wikan complete
their basepath circuits and a
5-2 Indian lead-grab.
Even though the Bulldog
visitors managed three singles
in their nal two innings at
the plate, Indian defense was
able to turn away any and all
late threats at the Tribes new
lead. Just to be sure, however,
the Indians added three more
insurance runs with fully-paid
premiums in the bottom of the
sixth frame when senior sec-
ond baseman Abie Mellick
drew a lead-off walk and then
Snitker and Johnson crushed
back-to-back homeruns, Snit-
ker also driving Mellick in
with her blast to help secure
the 8-2 Indian victory.
Snitkers double and two-
run homerun in three at-bats
paced the Indian offense, as
she drove in two runs and
scored two more herself.
Johnsons homerun also ac-
counted for a run batted in
and two runs scored, while
Christianson drove in two
runs and scored her own pair
as well.
Snitker also picked up
the pitching win, giving up
10 hits and two earned runs
while striking out ve batters
and walking none in securing
the complete-game victory.

round effort of
367 strokes,
improving to
17th place for
the remainder
of the tournament with scores of 332,
338 and 333 in the second through
fourth rounds, respectively. Mary Har-
din-Baylor won the team title with its
team score of 1,239 strokes.
Sophomore Morgan McMillan was
the Lady Knights fth golfer, nishing
in a tie for 94th place out of 111 golf-
ers individually with a four-round total
of 354 strokes. McMillan shot a rst-
round total of 97 strokes, improved to
83 strokes in the second round, and
nished with third- and fourth-round
totals of 86 and 88 to nish 16 strokes
over par. The individual title was won
by Laura Lindsey of Texas at Tyler with
a four-round total of 296 strokes.
The Rochester Community and
Technical College baseball team
wrapped up its 2013 season with 11
wins in its nal 14 games of the season
during the month of May. The Yellow-
jackets had their season brought to an
end with a pair of losses to Minnesota
State Community and Technical Col-
lege (MSCTC) out of Fergus Falls, MN
May 16 and 17 in the opening rounds
of Minne-
sota Col-
lege Athletic

their 2013
c a mp a i g n
with a 26-9
overall re-
cord that in-
cluded a mark of 9-3 in MCAC play.
Prior to those season-ending
tournament losses, RCTC began the
month of May with a May 1 sweep of
Central Lakes College at Brainerd,
MN, 8-3 and 10-4, before splitting a
May 5 doubleheader at Minnesota
lege at Fergus Falls, MN with a 12-3
victory followed by a 2-1 loss, with
sophomore Mike Burroughs going 0-
for-1 at the plate in that nightcap loss.
The Central
College 2013
softball season
came to an end
in the NCAA Di-
vision III Finals
at Eau Claire,
WI in mid-May.
The Dutch end-
ed their 2013
campaign with
a 32-10 overall
record that in-
cluded a mark of 12-2 in Iowa Intercol-
legiate Athletic Conference (IIAC) play
that was good enough to share the
IIAC season championship with Coe
College.
Centrals IIAC Tournament run was
short-lived, as the Dutch lost a rst-
round tournament bout, 9-3, at home
to eventual IIAC Tournament cham-
pion Luther College May 5. Senior
left elder Heidi Reburn was one for
three at the plate with a single and one
put-out in the contest. That short IIAC
Tournament run did not keep Central
from earning yet another berth in the
NCAA Division III Tournament, open-
ing regional play at home.
The Dutch swept through NCAA
Division III Tournament regional play
with three consecutive wins at home,
including a 1-0 win in eight innings
over Cornell May 9, a 3-1 victory over
Fontbonne out of Missouri May 10, and
back-to-back wins over St. Thomas out
of Minnesota, 9-1 in ve innings May
11 and 2-1 May 12. Reburn scored
Centrals lone run in the bottom of the
eighth inning of the Dutch regional
win over Cornell College, being hit by
a pitch before stealing third base and
then scoring on a single for the 1-0
Dutch victory. Reburn had no statis-
tics recorded in either the 3-1 win over
Fontbonne or the 9-1 or 2-1 victories
over St. Thomas.
Centrals sweep through its regional
opponents advanced the Dutch to the
nals round in Eau Claire, WI, where
Central was eliminated after losses in
its rst two games of the nals round.
Central lost a 4-1 result to Montclair
State out of New Jersey May 17 before
having its season ended with a 5-4 loss
in eight innings to Texas-Tyler May 18.
Reburn was 0-for-1 at the plate in the
loss to Montclair State and ended her
career with no statistics playing left
eld in the loss to Texas-Tyler.
The Wartburg College womens golf
team wrapped up its 2013 spring sea-
son with a 17th-place nish of 1,370
strokes out of 21 teams at the NCAA

The Yellowjackets then swept Minne-
sota West Community and Technical
College May 8 by scores of 5-0 and
10-1, with Burroughs again going 0-
for-1 at the plate in the nightcap.
The sweeping continued for the
Yellowjackets May 10 with double-
header wins of 11-0 and 11-1 at Ano-
ka-Ramsey Community College, with
Burroughs going 0-for-2 at the plate
in the second-game triumph. RCTC
wrapped up regular season play with
another sweep at Ridgewater College
May 11 by scores of 4-1 and 2-0, with
Burroughs recording no stats in either
game.
Postseason play for the Yellowjack-
ets began with a 2-1 loss to Minnesota
lege May 1 before RCTC bounced
back with wins of 2-0 over Central
Lakes College-Brainerd May 16 and
3-2 over Mesabi Range Community
and Technical College May 17. The
Yellowjackets had their season ended
in the double-elimination postseason
tournament with a 5-3 loss to Minne-
sota State Community and Technical
College May 17, with Burroughs not
recording any statistics during RCTCs
postseason run and ending his ca-
reer at the two-year school with three
doubles in ve hits this season, driv-
ing in ve runs and drawing six walks
while also recording a .985 elding
percentage as an inelder for the Yel-
lowjackets.
The University of Wisconsin-White-
water (UW-W) baseball team wrapped
up its 2013 season with a 35-9 overall
record, earning their sixth consecutive
trip to the NCAA Division III Tourna-
ment and winning the Wisconsin Inter-
collegiate Athletic Conference (WIAC)
for the 14th time in school history with
a league mark of 21-2.
Senior right-handed pitcher Tom
Kerndt also wrapped up his baseball
career at UW-W in award-winning
fashion, being one of six Warhawks to
be named to the D3baseball.com Mid-
west All-Region Team as a Third Team
pitcher. Kerndt also earned First Team
All-WIAC honors this season, starting
the most games of any pitcher in the
conference this season and posting
the second most wins with an overall
record of 8-1.
Kerndt tossed 70 innings on the
mound for the Warhawks this season,
allowing 24 earned runs while striking
out 43 batters. He also recorded one
save and sported an earned run av-
erage (ERA) of 3.09, fth best in the
WIAC. Kerndt held his opponents to a
conference-best .217 batting average
this season.
Prior to the
start of post-
season play for
UW-W, the War-
hawks swept
through their
nal ve regular
season games,
all at home
and all during
the month of
May, including a May 1 doubleheader
sweep of St. Scholastica, 15-5 and
5-3, and a 15-2 pounding of Concor-
dia University of Wisconsin May 7, a
game in which Kerndt stole a base and
scored a run as a pinch-runner. UW-
Ws regular season wrapped up with a
home sweep of University of Wiscon-
sin-Platteville May 8, 8-5 and 4-2, with
Kerndt picking up the pitching win in
the 4-2 victory by giving up three hits,
four walks and two earned runs in six
innings, striking out three batters and
hitting three others. He forced eight y-
outs and seven ground-outs, including
one he posted an assist on.
The Warhawks were eliminated
early in the WIAC postseason tour-
nament played on their home eld,
suffering losses to University of Wis-
consin-LaCrosse, 6-0 May 11 and
12-2 May 12, in the double-elimination
event. In between those two losses
was UW-Ws only WIAC Tournament
win, a 17-9 triumph over the Univer-
sity of Wisconsin-Oshkosh May 11 in
which Kerndt started the game on the
mound and gave up two hits, a walk
and four runs - three of them earned
- in facing just four batters before being
replaced on the mound.
UW-Ws regular season efforts
earned them a sixth consecutive berth
in the NCAA Division III National Tour-
nament, where they were able to host
the initial regional level of play. The
Warhawks began the season grand
nale with a 2-0 victory over Case
Western Reserve University May 15,
a game in which Kerndt picked up the
pitching win after giving up just two
hits and ve walks while striking out
ve batters and hitting three more. He
forced eight y-outs and 13 ground-
outs in his complete, nine-inning ef-
fort.
Unfortunately, that win over Case
Western would be Kerndts nal pitch-
ing appearance for UW-W, as the War-
hawks were then eliminated from the
double-elimination regional tourna-
ment with back-to-back losses. UW-W
rst fell to the University of Wisconsin-
Stevens Point, 7-6, May 16 before hav-
ing its season ended with a 3-2 loss

Waukon baseball team picks up rst NEIC win,
but comes up short in four other opportunities
The Waukon baseball team
completed a busy week full of
Northeast Iowa Conference
(NEIC) activity with ve
NEIC games in a span of ve
days. The Indians entered the
week still in search of their
rst conference win, making
good on that search just once.
The Indians fell at defending
NEIC champion Oelwein, 10-
0 in six innings, Monday, June
10 before splitting a home
NEIC doubleheader with
Charles City Tuesday, June
11, defeating the Comets by
a 7-2 count in game one for
that rst NEIC victory before
falling in the nightcap, 11-1,
in just ve innings. The Indi-
ans also come up short, 10-
3, at home against Class 2A
top-ve rated New Hampton
Wednesday, June 12 before
doing likewise, 7-4, to Crest-
wood Friday, June 14.
The Indians now hold a 4-
12 season record, including a
1-7 record in Northeast Iowa
Conference play. The Indians
were scheduled to host Wa-
verly-Shell Rock Monday,
June 17 before playing at
Postville Wednesday, June 19
and then at Charles City Fri-
day, June 21. The Tribe will
then host its own Jeff Houg
Tournament Saturday, June
22 (see shaded box elsewhere
on this page for further de-
tails) before hosting Decorah
in a doubleheader Tuesday,
June 25 and then playing at
South Winneshiek Wednes-
day, June 26.
at Oelwein ...
The baseball Indians put
forth a limited offensive ef-
fort in falling at defending
Northeast Iowa Conference
champion Oelwein Monday,
June 10 by a 10-0 nal result
in six innings. Being limited
to just four hits spread out
over separate innings, the
Tribe managed just those four
baserunners and two harm-
less others via elders choice
plays to never advance a run-
ner past rst base against the
Huskies.
Being handcuffed on of-
fense, Indian pitching only
allowed Oelwein ve hits but
also gave up 12 free passes,
including eight walks to aid
the Husky cause. One of
those walks came right away
in Oelweins rst at-bat and
was later singled into a 1-0
Husky headstart before three
hit batsmen, two walks and a
sacrice y in the third frame
pushed Oelweins lead to 4-
0.
Another lead-off walk is-
sued in the fourth was sacri-
ced into a 5-0 Husky advan-
tage. The free passes didnt
factor into Oelwein runs in
the fth, but an Indian error
did, as the two-out miscue
was followed by two singles
and a double to push Oelwein
to an 8-0 margin. Another hit
batsman, a single, an Indian
error, a walk and a sacrice
y nally brought the game
to a mercy-rule close, 10-0,
in the bottom of the sixth in-
ning.
Juniors Parker Hesse and
Hunter Hammel, and sopho-
mores Adam Benzing and
Jake Ronan each provided a
single for the only Indian of-
fense in the ballgame.
Hammel suffered the
pitching loss, giving up just
one hit and four earned runs
in two and one-third innings
but issuing four walks, hit-
ting two batters and striking
out one. Adam Benzing came
on in relief for two and one-
third innings as well, allow-
ing three hits, three walks and
one earned run in four scored
during his tenure on the
mound. Junior Tyler Benzing
wrapped up the games nal
two-thirds of an inning, giv-
ing up one hit and one walk,
along with one earned run in
two Oelwein runs scored.
vs. Charles City ...
In a battle of yet winless
teams in the Northeast Iowa
Conference, the baseball In-
dians split a home Northeast
Iowa Conference (NEIC) pair
against Charles City Tuesday,
June 11. The game was origi-
nally switched from a road
contest for the Indians due to
a rain-soaked eld at Charles
City, and was then postponed
from its original June 4 date
due to even more rain, the
Indians earning a 7-2 victory
in game one but letting game
two get away by an 11-1 re-
sult in just ve innings.
Game one saw the Indians
average one run in each in-
ning while keeping Charles
City pretty much at bay de-
fensively on the way to a 7-2
Indian victory. The baseball
Tribe knocked around 14 hits
in the contest while limiting
the visiting Comets to just
ve on the way to Waukons
rst NEIC victory of the sea-
son.
Playing on their home eld
but being labeled as the vis-
iting team due to the doubl-
header originally supposed to
have been played at Charles
City, the Indians struck rst
with two of their hits. Sopho-
more shortstop Adam Benz-
ing led the game off with a
single, was sacriced to sec-
ond base by senior pitcher
Austin Troendle, and then
doubled in by junior desig-
nated hitter Parker Hesse for
a 1-0 Indian headstart.
That Waukon lead was
doubled in the second inning
when junior rst baseman
Sam Schwartz stroked a one-
out single, sophomore third
baseman Brock Waters was
hit by a pitch and Benzing
singled Schwartz home for a
2-0 Indian lead. Both of those
rst innings could have been
much bigger for the Indians,
as they had the bases loaded
with just one out, but timely
double plays by Charles Citys
defense bailed the Comets out
and kept the Indians at just a
2-0 early lead.
Indian defense also took its
turn at timely plays to aid its
own cause. Troendle only al-
lowed two Charles City hits in
the games rst ve innings,
but his own timely double
play on a return ground ball
erased one of those threats
in the rst inning and a line
drive snared by Benzing at
shortstop allowed him to also
eliminate a similar threat in
the fourth.
With defense helping the
Indians maintain their early
lead, senior catcher Jor-
dan Wolfe added to it all by
himself to lead off the third
frame, as he launched a solo
homerun over the right eld
fence for the Indians rst
round-tripper of the season
and a 3-0 Indian advantage. A
fourth Indian run was tacked
on in the fth inning when
sophomore left elder Jacob
Ronan led the inning off with
a double, advanced on an In-
dian out and sped home on a
passed ball.
Indian defense began to
falter a bit in the fth, the
third Indian error of the con-
test being followed by Troen-
dles lone walk issued in the
ballgame to mount Charles
Citys rst real scoring threat.
What would have been a run-
scoring sacrice y, instead
turned out to be another Indi-
an double play, as the Comet
at third base was ruled to have
left early on the y ball tag,
helping get the Indian defense
out of another snag.
The Indians benetted
from a bit of defensive gener-
osity themselves in the sixth
inning, as Benzing reached on
a one-out error and was joined
in loading the bases when
Troendle singled and Hesse
drew a walk. A ground-out by
Wolfe brought Benzing home
to improve the Indian stand-
ing to 5-0.
Charles Citys bats started
to come alive in the sixth
frame, as the Comets popped
for three singles and two
ground-outs to nally get on
the board and cut Waukons
lead to 5-2 heading into the
nal inning. The Indians got
both of those runs right back
in the top of the seventh, as
Waters, Benzing, Troendle
and Hesse all rattled off con-
secutive singles with two outs
in the books, Troendle driv-
ing home Waters pinch-run-
ner, junior Tyler Benzing, and
Hesse scoring Adam Benzing
to push the Tribes margin
back to ve runs, 7-2.
Despite having given up
three hits and the Comets
rst two runs the inning be-
fore, Troendle went back
to work on the mound in
Charles Citys nal at-bats.
His defensive counterparts
helped him retire the Comets
in order with two ground-outs
wrapped around a y-out to
secure the 7-2 Indian win.
In his rst mound victory
of the season, Troendle gave
up ve hits, one walk and two
runs - both of them earned,
while striking out two bat-
ters in his complete-game
performance. He also helped
out his own cause by knock-
ing around three singles in
four at-bats to drive in one
run. Adam Benzing paced
the Indian offense with four
singles in ve at-bats, driving
in one run and scoring three
more. Hesse and Wolfe also
punched two hits to drive in
two runs each, Hesse with a
double and Wolfe with that
solo blast out of the park.
Game two did not turn out
quite so well for the Indians,
as they were handcuffed to
just a single hit and a single
run in falling by an 11-1
mercy-rule result in just ve
innings. That lone hit was a
fourth-inning ineld single
by sophomore Adam Benz-
ing, but the Tribes lone run
came an inning earlier when
sophomore pinch-hitter Brock
Waters drew a one-out walk,
sophomore rst baseman Sul-
ly Bucheit reached on an er-
ror, both advanced a base on
a passed ball, and Waters then
scored on a ground-out by
senior second baseman Matt
Cymboluk for the Tribes
only tally.
That single Indian run
was sandwiched between a
four-inning rst frame for the
Comets on three Indian er-
rors and three Charles City
singles and a seven-run third
inning. Five more Comet hits
took advantage of three more
Indian defensive miscues to
plate those seven runs in the
third that ultimately led to the
games nal, 11-1 mercy-rule
margin in Charles Citys fa-
vor.
Sophomore Landon
Sivesind suffered the pitch-
ing loss, throwing the games
rst two and two-thirds in-
nings and giving up seven
hits and seven runs - just three
of them earned, while post-
ing no walks or strike-outs.
Sophomore Jake Ronan came
on for the nal one and one-
third frames, allowing three
hits, no walks and four runs
- none of them earned, while
striking out one batter.
vs. New Hampton ...
The baseball Indians were,
once again, handcuffed at
the plate in hosting Class 2A
top-ve rated New Hampton
Wednesday, June 12. The
game was played early due
to the threat of rainy weather,
and ultimately withstood a
nearly half-hour rain delay
before ultimately being of-
cially ended after six innings
with the Indians on the short
end of the 10-3 nal result.
The Indians managed just
a single baserunner through
the games rst ve innings,
sophomore pitcher Sully Bu-
cheit reaching base on a third-
inning walk as New Hampton
senior Noah Stochl kept the
Tribes bats well in check.
Meanwhile, New Hamptons
bats went to work to plate
runs in four of the games six
ofcial innings, including a
two-run rst frame on a walk
and two singles.
After a silent second in-
ning, three more Chickasaw
runs were added in the third
inning on two more singles,
three walks and two passed
balls. A walk, a elders
choice and a run-scoring dou-
ble tacked on another New
Hampton run in the fourth
inning before two more dou-
bles, a single, a walk and
two Indian errors in the sixth
frame pushed the Indian de-
cit to a mercy-rule margin of
10-0 following nearly a half-
hour rain delay.
The Indians, however, -
nally got to Stochl and his
defensive counterparts in the
sixth, tallying three runs to
avoid the games early end by
mercy rule. The sophomore
tandem of third baseman
Brock Waters and left elder
Marshall Lyons drew back-
to-back walks to lead off the
bottom of the sixth before the
fellow sophomore tandem of
shortstop Adam Benzing and
center elder Jake Ronan
each knocked ineld singles
to score Waters pinch-run-
ner, sophomore Michael
Howe, and Lyons. Junior des-
ignated hitter Parker Hesse
then grounded into a elders
choice to score Benzing and
cut the New Hampton lead to
10-3.
That late Indian effort may
have avoided the mercy-rule
end to the contest, but Mother
Nature had other ideas. Al-
though New Hampton was
able to put another couple
runs on the board in the top
of the seventh, lightning and
more rain in the middle of the
seventh forced the game to be
ofcially called, the results
through six complete innings,
10-3 in New Hamptons favor,
being recorded as the games
nal result.
Benzing and Ronan posted
the only Indian hits, each with
a single, with Ronan driving
in one run and Benzing, Ly-
ons and Howe accounting for
the only runs scored.
Bucheit suffered the pitch-
ing loss, logging two innings
on the mound to give up four
hits, three walks and four
earned runs while striking out
two batters. Freshman Haden
Hammel came on in relief for
three and two-thirds frames,
allowing three hits, ve walks
and four earned runs out of
six scored during his mound
tenure, while striking out four
Chickasaws. Senior Jordan
Wolfe nished off the games
one-third of an inning, allow-
ing just one hit and no other
stats in closing out the sixth
inning.
vs. Crestwood ...
A four-run rst inning
handed over by the baseball
Indians proved to be deci-
sive in their 7-4 home loss
to Crestwood Friday, June
14. Trailing by as much as
a 7-2 result, the Tribe dia-
mond dwellers mounted a
late comeback effort, leaving
some margin-closing tallies
on the bases when the games
nal out was recorded.
Those rst four runs given
up by the Indians came as the
result of three Indian errors
compounded by four Crest-
wood singles in the games
opening frame. The Indians
had just a bit of an answer
in their half of the rst, ju-
nior designated hitter Parker
Hesse popping a two-out
single before senior catcher
Jordan Wolfe drew a base on
balls. Hesse stole his way to
third base, and when Wolfes
courtesy runner, junior Tyler
Benzing, stole second base,
Hesse then swiped home to
get the Tribe on the board,
4-1.
The two teams traded runs
in the second frame as well,
but on a much more even keel.
Crestwood took advantage of
another Indian error with a
run-scoring ground-out be-
fore the Indians answered in
the bottom half of the frame.
Sophomore rst baseman
Sully Bucheit singled, junior
center elder Hunter Hammel
reached on a elders choice
that removed Bucheit, senior
second baseman Matt Cym-
boluk drew a base on balls,
and sophomore third base-
man Brock Waters reached on
an error to load the bases be-
fore Troendle scored Hammel
with an ineld single and also
keep the bases loaded. But an
ensuing strike-out left those
bases loaded and the Indians
greatest comeback threat un-
realized at a 5-2 Indian de-
cit through three complete
frames.
After a scoreless exchange
in the third, Crestwood took
advantage of another pair
of Indian defensive miscues
with two singles and a run-
scoring ground-out to in-
crease the Indian decit to 7-
2 midway through the fourth.
But a relay from sophomore
left elder Jake Ronan to
sophomore shortstop Adam
Benzing to Wolfe at home cut
down another Cadet trying
to add to that lead on one of
those singles.
While the Indians strug-
gled to mount any kind of an
offensive threat, their defense
kept the visiting Cadets from
furthering their lead. Wolfe
cut down one Cadet threat by
throwing out a steal attempt
at second base in the fth
frame, while Ronan made
some spectacular diving stabs
to rob other potential Crest-
wood hits out of the air in a
couple different innings.
Behind that renewed mo-
mentum from those defensive
stands, the Indians began to
mount their nal comeback
attempt, getting one run in the
sixth when Bucheit reached
on an error and his pinch-run-
ner, freshman Peyton Hesse,
made his way around the
basepaths via singles from
Cymboluk and Waters to
make for a 7-3 Indian decit.
The Tribes nal efforts at
completing its comeback got
off to a loaded start, as se-
nior pitcher Austin Troendle
and Hesse popped for back-
to-back lead-off singles and
Wolfe drew a walk to load
the bases with no outs yet in
the books. Troendle blazed
home on a y-out by Ronan,
but two more of the same de-
fensive stops left two Indians
stranded on base and the Indi-
ans comeback unrealized for
a 7-4 Tribe loss.
Troendle suffered the pitch-
ing loss, scattering 11 hits
and giving up three walks and
just three earned runs of the
seven scored by Crestwood,
while posting no strike-outs.
A half dozen Indian errors
played their part in his com-
plete-game loss as well.
Troendle, Hesse and Bu-
cheit each unleashed a pair
of singles in four at-bats to
pace the Indian offense, Tro-
endle and Hesse each scoring
a run and Troendle driving in
another as well. Bucheit and
Waters each also drove in a
run, with Hammel and Pey-
ton Hesse each tallying a run
as well.

Kee baseball team falls one game
shy of undefeated week; sweeps
Sumner-Fredericksburg, plays to
a split with South Winneshiek
by Dillon Hogan
The Kee baseball team
played a rather light schedule
this past week that got even
lighter as the week came to
a close. The Hawks swept a
road doubleheader at Sum-
ner-Fredericksburg Monday,
June 10 by scores of 6-2 and
8-6 before splitting another
Upper Iowa Conference twin-
bill at home against South
Winneshiek Thursday, June
13, winning game one by a
12-9 count before falling in
the nightcap, 6-0.
The baseball Hawks cur-
rently hold a 14-6 overall re-
cord, including a 6-2 mark in
Upper Iowa Conference play.
Kees Saturday, June 15 dou-
ble-dip at Dyersville Beck-
man featuring battles against
the Class 2A top-rated Blaz-
Starmont.
at Sumner-Fredericksburg ...
The baseball Hawks be-
gan their week against Sum-
ner-Fredricksburg, looking
to keep their Upper Iowa
Conference successes alive.
That plan worked out well for
Kee in the Monday, June 10
doubleheader on the road, as
the Hawks swept both games
from the host Cougars, 8-6
and 6-2.
In the rst game, the Hawks
jumped to an early lead with a
2-0 lead after the rst inning,
only to have Sumner-Freder-
icksburg respond the next two
innings by scoring four runs
to make for a 4-2 Kee decit
after three complete innings.
After scoring a single run in
the fourth frame to cut that
gap in half, the Hawks put the
game away in the fth inning
with a huge, ve-run inning
to give them an 8-4 lead.
The host Cougars respond-
ed with two runs in the bot-
tom of the fth and held the
Hawks scoreless for the re-
mainder of the contest. Kees
defense returned that score-
board silence in Sumner-
Fredericksburgs nal two
at-bats as well, hanging on to
the 8-6 game-one victory.
Kee went with senior Luke
Gavin on the mound. He went
ve innings for the Hawks
while picking up the win, giv-
ing up six hits, one walk, and
six runs - four of them earned,
while striking out ve batters.
Fellow senior Blair Cooper
came on in relief of Gavin,
pitching the last two innings
for the Hawks and allowing
two hits and no walks or runs
while striking out one batters
in his save effort.
The offense for the Hawks
posted seven hits over the
course of the game, with four
of those hits being spread
equally between Gavin and
senior Jack Janett, who each
had two hits apiece in their
combined eight at-bats. Ja-
nett belted a pair of doubles
to drive in a run and score two
more on his own, with senior
Hunter Fink also scoring two
runs and Gavin, senior Bran-
don Walleser, and juniors
Matt Manning and Chris Car-
roll each driving in a run as
well.
The second game against
Sumer-Fredericksburg was
a bit less stressful for the
Hawks. The Hawks used an-
other early start to take a 3-
2 lead over the host Cougars
after two innings, tallying a
ers and Class 4A Muscatine
was cancelled due to rainy
weather and is not scheduled
to be made up at this point in
the season.
In another relatively light
schedule of competition this
week, the Hawks were sched-
uled to play at North Fayette
Monday, June 17 before host-
ing MFL/MarMac Thursday,
June 20. A Monday, June 24
home doubleheader with Don
Bosco has already been re-
scheduled to be played July
9, but the Hawks will close
out next week with three
consecutive nights of base-
ball that will include a home
doubleheader with Edge-
wood-Colesburg Wednesday,
June 26, a Thursday, June 27
doubleheader at Valley Com-
munity, and a Friday, June
28 home doubleheader with
pair of runs in the opening
frame and then trading a run
for two in the second inning.
Kee was able to add a run in
the fourth and two more in
the fth inning while keeping
Sumner-Fredericksburg shut
down for the games remain-
der to secure the 6-2 win for
the Hawks.
Senior Blair Cooper was
again on the mound for the
Hawks, pitching the whole
seven innings in game two
and allowing only two hits,
three walks and two unearned
runs in the contest.
The leading hitters for the
Hawks were senior Ian Bur-
roughs, who went two-for-
three with a double and a
run scored, and junior Chris
Carroll, who also went two-
for-three with a double, a
run scored and a run batted
in (RBI) as well. Cooper and
fellow seniors Luke Gavin
and Jack Janett also each ac-
counted for Kee runs with
their bats.
vs. South Winneshiek ...
In their second double-
header of the week, the base-
ball Hawks faced their tough-
est Upper Iowa Conference
opponent yet and suffered
their second conference loss
of the year. Kee split its home
doubleheader with South
Winneshiek, suffering a 6-0
loss in game one but bounc-
ing back for a 12-9 triumph in
game two to earn the split.
The Hawks were shut out
for the rst time this season
in suffering a 6-0 loss in the
rst game. Kees bats were
limited to just three singles
in the contest, and South
Winneshiek methodically
plugged away for a run each
in the second, fth and sixth
innings but plated three runs
in the third frame to account
for half of the Warrior score-
board total.
Senior Luke Gavin returned
to the mound for the Hawks,
throwing ve innings and tak-
ing the loss. He allowed ve
hits, four walks and ve runs
- three of them earned, while
striking out four batters in his
ve frames on the mound.
His replacement, junior Chris
Carroll, gave up one hit and
one earned run while striking
out three batters in two in-
nings of work.
The offense for the Hawks
was stagnant against South
Winneshiek, as only three hits
were recorded by the Hawks
in the game. Juniors Matt
Manning and Quinn Brennan,
along with senior Jack Janett,
all recorded one hit apiece for
the Hawks.
A much better perfor-
mance for Kee in its second
game gave the Hawks the
spark they needed to secure
a 12-9 victory to split with
South Winneshiek. After be-
ing shut-out in the rst game,
the Hawks came alive in the
second game, scoring eight
runs in the second inning and
never looking back.
South Winneshiek struck
rst to post four runs in the
top of the second inning be-
fore Kees early eight-run
eruption. Another two-for-
one exchange in South Win-
neshieks favor followed by a
one-run top half of the fourth
inning left Kees advantage
at 9-7 through four complete
frames.
The Hawks tacked on two
more runs in the fth inning
and traded one run for two
again in the sixth to set the
stage for the games nal in-
ning. Kees defense rose to
the occasion in that nal War-
rior turn at the plate, keeping
South Winneshiek scoreless
and securing the 12-9 Kee
victory.
Senior Hunter Fink got the
start for the Hawks, pitching
ve and one-third innings and
allowing 14 hits, one walk
and eight runs - just two of
them earned runs, while strik-
ing out two batters. Fellow
senior Blair Cooper came in
to replace Fink, pitching the
nal inning and two-thirds to
give up three hits, three walks
and one earned run, while
striking out one South Win-
neshiek batter.
Senior Luke Gavin was
a force at the plate for the
Hawks, going two-for-three
with a double and three RBI
while also drawing one walk
and scoring two more runs.
Junior Chris Carroll belted a
double as well, driving in two
runs, with junior Matt Man-
ning also scoring a pair of
runs and joining Cooper and
seniors Ian Burroughs, Jack
Janett and Brandon Walleser
in each driving in a run as
well.

SPECIAL
CONGRATULATIONS
to seniors Jordan Manning
and Amber Rissman for
playing to All-Conference
Honors this season!
The 2013 Waukon girls golf season
featured a large collection of eight seniors
to help guide an otherwise young squad
through a trying campaign of weather-
related postponements or cancellations of
meets. With weather rst not allowing the
Lady Indians to even get on the course for
practice prior to their rst competitions,
rainy, cold and sometimes winter weather
further impacted the season with an
inconsistence competition schedule.
Nonetheless, the Indian lady
linksters forged on, winning a handful
of dual meets, including their nal meet
of the regular season, and playing to a
sixth-place nish at the Northeast Iowa
Conference Meet and a fth-place nish
in their Class 3A Regional First Round
Meet to end their season. Seniors Jordan
Manning and Amber Rissman played
to All-Conference nishes with top-15
placewinnings at this years Northeast
Iowa Conference Meet.
The eight seniors who helped lead
this years team included Ali Ashbacher,
Shelby Hanson, Jordan Manning, Nicole
Prestemon, Amber Rissman, Eli Ronan,
Corbin Snitker and Chelsey Stamper.
Their leadership and dedication to the
program will be difcult to replace and
greatly missed.

Kee softball team posts
pair of conference wins
by Dillon Hogan
The Kee softball team
picked up a pair of Upper
Iowa Conference (UIC) wins
in a busy week of UIC play
this past week. After suffer-
ing a pair of narrow losses
at Sumner-Fredericksburg
Monday, June 10, 9-8 and 5-
2, the Hawks bounced back
to defeat Clayton Ridge at
home, 3-0, Wednesday, June
12 before splitting a home
UIC doubleheader with South
Winneshiek Thursday, June
13 with a 4-1 loss and a 6-2
Kee victory.
The Hawks currently hold
a 6-7 overall record that in-
cludes a mark of 3-4 in Upper
Iowa Conference play. The
Wednesday, June 12 home
event with Clayton Ridge,
already postponed from June
6, was supposed to be a UIC
doubleheader, but the sec-
ond half of that twinbill was
rained out again and post-
poned to July 3.
Kee was scheduled to play
at North Fayette Monday,
June 17 before hosting MFL/
MarMac Thursday, June 20
and then playing in the Dec-
orah Tournament Saturday,
June 22. The Lady Hawks
will then host West Central
Monday, June 24 before play-
ing at Waukon Wednesday,
June 26.
at Sumner-Fredericksburg ...
A pair of ve-run innings
spelled trouble for the softball
Hawks in suffering an Upper
Iowa Conference (UIC) dou-
bleheader sweep at Sumner-
Fredericksburg Monday, June
10. The host Cougars rallied
with ve runs in the bottom
of the seventh inning to pull
off a 9-8 Kee defeat in the
opening game of the double-
dip and then plated ve more
runs in the second inning of
game two to clinch the UIC
sweep with a 5-2 nightcap
victory over the Hawks as
well.
The Hawks rst game
against Sumner-Fredericks-
burg ended in heartbreak for
the Hawks after a ve-run
seventh inning cost the Hawks
the win. Back-to-back three-
run innings for the Hawks
to open the game seemed to
have them well on their way
before the late Cougar surge
stole away the 9-8 end result.
The Hawks took the early
lead on Sumner-Fredericks-
burg, scoring three runs in the
rst inning after hits by junior
Kaylee Darling, eighth grader
Courtney Cooper and senior
Sam Galema. The Hawks
scored three more runs in the
second inning, this time by
juniors Ellie Heiderscheit and
Jordan Colsch and freshman
Ellie Cooper, to take a 6-0
early advantage.
The host Cougars held
the Hawks scoreless for the
next three frames, while -
nally nding their own of-
fense with a run in the bot-
tom of the third inning and
three more in the fourth to cut
Kees lead to 6-4 through ve
complete innings. Kee scored
two more runs in the sixth in-
ning to take an 8-4 lead, but a
costly seventh inning, where
the Hawks allowed Sum-
ner-Fredericksburg to score
ve runs, cost the Hawks the
game by a score of 9-8.
Cooper pitched for the
Hawks, picking up the loss
on the mound. She threw all
seven innings, striking out
ten batters, walking six and
allowing eight hits and nine
runs - just two of them earned
runs.
The leading hitter for the
Hawks was Colsch, who was
a perfect, three-for-three at
the plate with a double and a
run scored. Ellie Cooper col-
lected two hits in three at-bats
to drive in a run and score two
of her own. Courtney Cooper,
Darling and Heiderscheit
each went two-for-four at the
plate, with Darling and Court-
ney Cooper each driving in
two runs and Heiderscheit
knocking in another. Darling
also scored two runs and se-
nior Sam Galema drove in
another in swatting a double
in the contest.
In the twinbill nightcap,
the Hawks again found them-
selves the victim of a big in-
ning which would end up
costing them the game by a
5-2 end result. The Hawks al-
lowed all ve Sumner-Fred-
ericksburg runs in the second
inning and just could not ght
back enough to get the win.
With Kee runs scored in the
second and fth innings, the
Hawks couldnt quite get over
that ve-run Cougar surge to
avoid the loss.
Senior Sam Galema started
the game on the mound for the
Hawks and she pitched one in-
ning, giving up one hit, allow-
ing four runs - three of them
earned, and walking four bat-
ters. Galema was replaced by
eighth grader Courtney Coo-
per, who pitched the games
nal ve innings and allowed
six hits, four walks and one
earned run while striking out
seven batters.
Offensively, the Hawks
were led by Courtney Coo-
per, freshman Ellie Cooper
and junior Ellie Heiderscheit,
who each went two-for-three
at the plate. The Cooper tan- Flippin out ...

dem each stroked a double
and also drove in a run each,
with Ellie Cooper scoring one
of the runs and junior Jordan
Colsch crossing home plate
with the other.
vs. Clayton Ridge ...
A make-up date resched-
uled from June 6 was sup-
posed to be another Upper
Iowa Conference (UIC)
doubleheader for the softball
Hawks Wednesday, June 12
against Clayton Ridge. The
two teams were able to get
in one of those rescheduled
games, a 3-0 Kee victory, be-
fore rainy weather forced the
postponement of the second
game once again, this time to
July 3.
Behind a one-hit pitching
performance by eighth grader
Courtney Cooper, Kees de-
fense shut the visiting Eagles
down on offense. Cooper
struck out 10 batters and
walked just one in the com-
plete-game victory, while Kee
plated a single run each in the
third, fourth and fth innings
to help secure the win.
Junior Kaylee Darling
nished two-for-three at the
plate with one of those runs
scored and also stole two bas-
es in the game. Senior Sam
Galema also went two-for-
three at the plate with one RBI
in the contest, with Courtney
Cooper and freshman Ellie
Cooper also each driving in a
run and junior Ellie Heiders-
cheit and sophomore Valerie
Meyer each crossing home
plate with a tally as well.
vs. South Winneshiek ...
Kees nal competition of
the week saw the Hawks earn
a split of another Upper Iowa
Conference (UIC) double-
header Thursday, June 13 at
home. The softball Hawks
suffered a 4-1 loss to South
Winneshiek in the opening
game of the UIC double-dip
before pulling out a 6-2 tri-
umph in the nightcap.
The Hawks out-hit South
Winneshiek in the opening
game of the twinbill, popping
for six hits to only four man-
aged by South Winneshiek.
But Kee could not capitalize
offensively, managing just
a single run. Freshman Ellie
Cooper scored the lone run
of the game for the Hawks in
the third inning on a sacrice
y by eighth grader Courtney
Cooper. South Winneshiek
also plated a run in that same
third inning, but the differ-
ence maker was a three-run
second inning allowed by the
Hawks in suffering the 4-1
defeat.
Junior Kaylee Darling was
responsible for two of Kees
hits, going two-for-three.
Courtney and Ellie Cooper,
sophomore Molly Walleser
and eighth grader Claudia
Mathis each also accounted
for hits in the ballgame to
round out the Hawks offen-
sive effort.
Courtney Cooper pitched
the entirety of the game, al-
lowing four hits, two walks
and four runs - one of them
earned, while striking out
nine batters.
The Hawks looked to re-
bound in their second game,
doing so with some early
scoring in the nightcap to se-
cure a 6-2 victory.
The Hawks jumped on
South Winneshiek early in the
second game with four runs in
the rst three innings, includ-
ing a two-run opening frame
and single runs in each of the
second and third innings for a
4-0 Kee headstart that would
stand through four complete
frames. South Winneshiek
nally plated two runs in the
top of the fth inning, but the
Hawks responded with an-
other two runs in the sixth in-
ning to put away South Win-
neshiek, 6-2, for another big
win and another Upper Iowa
Conference win.
Senior Sam Galema start-
ed the game on the mound
for the Hawks, pitching an
inning and two-thirds and
allowing two hits, one walk
and no runs while striking out
two batters. Courtney Cooper
replaced Galema, nishing
the games nal ve and one-
third innings by allowing two
hits, one walk and two runs -
just one of them earned, while
striking out seven batters.
The Hawks bats were
even better in the second
game with 10 hits and ve
walks drawn during the game.
Courtney Cooper nished the
game with a perfect, four-for-
four plate effort that included
a home run and two runs each
batted in and scored. Sopho-
more Val Meyer went two-
for-four with a double and
a run scored in the contest,
with sophomore Molly Wal-
leser driving in two runs and
Galema and freshman Ellie
Cooper also each driving in a
run for the Hawks.

power take off units and mowers attached to tractors during the VMH Safety Day Camp
Thursday, June 13 at the Allamakee County Fairgrounds. Submitted photo.
Veterans Memorial Hospi-
tal hosted Safety Day Camp
Thursday, June 13 at the Al-
lamakee Fairgrounds in Wau-
kon. This day camp drew
over 110 children ages 7 to
14 from throughout Allama-
kee and Clayton counties for
a day-long session on how to
take responsibility for their
own safety, respect parents
safety rules and share safety
tips with their family and
friends.
According to Jeff Mitchell,
EMS Coordinator and coordi-
nator of this event, the camp
was a huge success. All of
the children that attended re-
ally listened and watched all
of the demonstrations and
speakers at the event. We told
them to remember all of the
safety lessons they learned
and follow them. We even
told them to help teach others
the safety rules they learned
today, including their parents
and siblings.
The children were divided
into 10 different groups and
spent twenty minutes at each
of the ten safety stations.
These 10 stations and their
instructor(s) included:
Tractor Safety taught by
Sam Schwartz, Waukon High
School FFA President
Lawn Mower/Chain Saw/
Weed Eater/Pinch Point Safe-
ty taught by Chuck Votsmier
and Loren Mitchell of Veter-
ans Memorial Hospital

kee/Clayton Rural Electric
Cooperative and Dave Cota
of Dave Cota Electric.
First Aid and First Aid
Kits instructed by Nicole
Schulte and Diane Rathbun,
Waterville Fire Department,
and Shari Dehli, L.P.N.
The campers were also all
called together at two differ-
ent times during the day for
large group demonstrations.
The rst demonstration in-
volved a dummy getting
caught in a Power Take Off
entanglement and another
demonstration of a heavy
gate and a dual tractor tire
falling on a watermelon and
what that could mean to a
child in that situation.
The second large group
demonstration included a he-
licopter y-in by the Gunder-
sen MedLink rescue helicop-
ter and instructions and tour
of a Waukon Fire Department
re truck.
The following local or-
ganizations and businesses
donated materials, equip-
ment, food, literature or even

This event is such a large
undertaking that we could
not have done it without all
of the help and support of all
of these businesses and orga-

The
Standard
We have the capacity to learn from our mistakes, and thus there is a great advantage in making some big mistakes early in life. Most people have a number of failed relationships before they nd the love
of their life. Those failed relationships help them to know what they are looking for in a mate. Failures in business may be costly, but they often lead to more protable and better-run businesses in the
future. Even in the realm of health, we see that getting sick often immunizes us against that particular disease in the future and broken bones heal themselves to become stronger than the original. It seems
that we live in a universe that thrives on adversity. Stressing a muscle makes it stronger, and the bones attached to that muscle become stronger too. Character works on the same principle. Those who have
been profoundly tested are usually the most robust and resilient. People born before the Great Depression and who then lived through it have a lower risk of becoming depressed than people born after
the depression. Perhaps the stress and strain that many are living through now will bring out the best in them. Dont seek an easy life for you or your children. If you want them to be robust and resilient,
let them experience a loss or failure every now and then. They just might thank you for it someday. Christopher Simon. Consider it pure joy, my brothers and sisters, whenever you face trials of many
kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith produces perseverance. Let perseverance nish its work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything. James 1:2-4

... that one question I am
frequently asked is how I de-
cide what to write about in
this column. Fact is, I have
several pads, large and small,
in locations where I can make
notes about things I hear or
read, or just think about.
Not all of them are worthy
of a full column. Some recent
examples.
The discussion about
whether or not command-
ing officers should have the
ability to overrule court mar-
tial results. The legal offi-
cer at our large replacement
air group training squadron
found out through casual
discussion that I had enjoyed
debate in high school, and he
asked me to serve as a pros-
ecutor in court martial tri-
als. We did not have many,
since minor infractions were
handled at captains mast.
We did have some, and I dis-
covered the Uniform Code of
Military Justice pretty much
conformed to what I had ob-
served in regular court. Most
serious trial I remember in-
volved two Filipino mess hall
workers who drew knives on
each other. Turned out their
problem dated back to their
homeland and had nothing
to do with the Navy. But the
UCMJ always seemed to me
to be justice with a shortcut,
but fair.
I cant find much to watch
on nighttime television, but
the other night I noticed that
the Classic Movie chan-
nel was showing the 1959
movie Breathless which
starred Iowas Jean Seaberg.
I remember watching her on
the stage of Hancher in Iowa
City with the cast from her
Marshalltown high schools
one-act play. I dont recall
if it was while I was in high
school debate competition on
campus, or later when I was a
student at university. I think
she had already been picked
after a nationwide search to
play Joan dArc. Two things
impressed me about her role
in Breathless. One was
her pixie-like Iowa beauty,
and the other that she spoke
French throughout. It had
English subtitles. Lousy,
poorly made avant garde film,
and I think probably helped
And then I wrote ...
by Dick Schilling, Editor Emeritus
lead to her eventual sad death
at much too young an age.
I keep a food diary as
a diabetic, but I also note
other things. Rain and snow
amounts, etc. I mudded in
my little garden last weekend
during the day and a half we
had without rain. I planted
beets May 6 last year. And cu-
cumbers May 15. Both went
in June 8 this year. Toma-
toes went in June 7. Maturity
takes about 70 days. Gonna
be a long wait and maybe a
frost threat?
The NSA employee who
leaked information about
electronic spying was said to
be staying in a Hong Kong
hotel where the cheapest
room was $400 a night. I
could not help but wonder if
that was the Peninsula Hotel
(it wasnt) where I had an ex-
pensive meal one evening. Pe-
king duck, which should have
been named Peking duck skin
and bones, and baked Alaska.
Neither was worth the menu
price.
Just the latest government
scandal.
My Democrat readers, if
there are any, should stop
here.
It was said President Tru-
man had a sign on his desk
that said: The buck stops
here. It was suggested the
sign on the presidential desk
now reads: What buck?
Each day, I trust govern-
ment less.

ter was three months old,
she wasnt progressing like
she should, said Winstead
of Arlington, Tennessee.
From then until she was 17,
no doctor in that time frame
could give us a good expla-
nation about her condition.
They just told us she had
pervasive learning delay.
Early on, Shelby had
crossed eyes, which were
corrected with surgery, and
eventually, speech delays.
Physically, Shelby was short
and stocky, and would have
tight calf muscles and walk
on her toes.
Said Winstead, When
she was about 3, a physician
told us she would never ride
a bike. We were to just teach
her basic life skills such as
how to feed herself and put
her clothes on. We didnt
like that answer. So we start-
ed looking for alternatives to
get her far along as possible.
She had a great personalty
and didnt have a mean bone
in her body. She has always
given 110 in everything she
does and never complains.
Like most parents would,
the Winsteads wanted their
daughter to be the best she
could be. They discovered
Shelby liked horses, and
when she was 9 they bought
her one. At age 11, Shelby
wanted to learn barrel rac-
ing, a competitive, timed
rodeo event in which a rider
Disabilities

and horse weave around bar-
rels. Learn she didand she
excelled.
Having a horse and com-
peting helped bring Shelby
out of her social shell. She
joined the National Bar-
rel Horse Association, and
eventually qualied in her
district for the Youth World
Teen Division. Four years
ago, she participated in the
NBHA Youth World Cham-
pionship and was a nal-
ist, nishing fourth among
1,700 competitors to earn
$1,000.
Now 20, Shelby barrel
races nearly every weekend,
except for winter. She so-
cially ts in at barrel racing,
and most competitors dont
know she has developmental
delays. She still has trouble
with basic math problems
and has never driven a car,
although she wants to begin.
Three years ago, the
technology became avail-
able for chromosone test-
ing, and Shelbys physician
described her condition as
a rare elongation of the Q
chromosone in the third di-
vision. Winstead said, For
someone who was told she
would never ride a bike, she
does. And she can ride the
hair off a horse, too. My ad-
vice to parents is to not set
your expectations too low.

The past couple of weeks
saw the end of session and
my return at the elevator in
McGregor. Family life is ad-
justing to having Mom back
home, and all in all life is
returning to a nice slow pace
for summer.
I thought I would take this
time to give my reections on
my rst session as a Represen-
tative. People would ask me if
it was everything I thought it
would be? The answer is yes.
I absolutely loved it!
At the beginning of ses-
sion, I was very busy with
committee meetings and
lots of visitors from the dis-
trict. I was surprised at how
many people did make it to
the Capitol. I tried my hard-
est to meet with those of you
that did make it down, and if
I didnt get with you, I apolo-
gize. As constituents, you
elected me to serve you. I feel
it is my duty to hear what is
concerning you. If you made
the 3 hour trip down to Des
Moines, you denitely de-
served some of my time and
a tour of the Capitol.
There were lots of inter-
esting topics of bills that we
dealt with during the session.
I had been assigned a bill
in education that ultimately
did not go anywhere. Even
though I did not draft the bill,
I felt like I took ownership of
it and worked my hardest to
try and get it through. One
of the hardships of being just
one of 100 representatives is
the fact that every bill does
not always make their way to
the oor, so we will be back
next year to try again.
After seeing all the grid-
lock in Washington, D.C., I
was glad to nd that missing
in Des Moines. We worked
together to nd common
ground and ultimately passed
a lot of good legislation. The
difcult part in compromise
is realizing that there are parts
of bills that you like and other
parts that you dont. But that
is politics at work. Nobody
gets everything they want.
Despite being done with
session, dont be surprised if
you get a phone call from me
or nd me knocking on your
door. Keeping in contact with
my constituents is important
to me. I love to hear whats
important to you and for this
state.
If there is an issue that con-
cerns you, please dont hesi-
tate to contact me. I check my
emails regularly (patti.ruff@
legis.iowa.gov) or give me
a call at home at 563-873-
1592.
Until next session!

With all of the enemies
the farm bill has, who needs
friends? One of the tech-
niques those in the U.S. Sen-
ate who are anti-farm bill use
is the complaint that its pro-
visions are not transparent
enough.
In fact, in the final days of
the senates fight over farm
bill provisions, several sena-
tors have said they believe
the so-called agricultural
safety net needs to be far
more transparent. Others say
making it so will actually
cause reductions in transpar-
ency.
The big rub seems to be,
as The Huffington Post re-
ported, that 15 members of
Congress or their spouses
received $237,921 in federal
farm subsidy payments last
year. The data came from an
analysis provided by the En-
vironmental Working Group.
Transparency would be lost
if, in the new bill, lawmak-
ers make it less obvious who
amongst them received sub-
sidies and how much they
received.
The Environmental Work-
ing Group is peeved because
the new bill would list those
subsidized, but meanwhile,
most farmers have switched
from direct subsidies to crop
insurance payments. Those
are not listed. So, a big re-
ceiver of subsidies last year
could, instead, be a big uti-
lizer of crop insurance this
year, thereby reducing his or
her transparency in regard to
federal bucks received.
The Huffington Post said
most direct payments are
eliminated in both the House
and Senate versions of the
bill, and most farms will be
enrolled, instead, in the fed-
eral crop insurance program
with premiums heavily sub-
sidized by the USDA. Farm-
ers going that route will be
listed in official records, but
the government, unlike with
regular subsidies, will not
divulge who signs up for the
insurance.
Environmental Working
Groups Scott Faber told The
Huffington Post, Although
much ballyhooed, the end of
direct payments heralds the
replacement of an inequi-
table and transparent safety
net with a more inequitable
and less transparent safety
net. Crop insurance subsidies
have no limits on who can
receive them and the amount
they can receive.
The receivers of crop in-
surance subsidies are listed
by the government, but the
list cannot be used to provide
a breakdown on individual
receivers or how many mem-
bers of Congress benefit
from the new program they
plan on enacting. Mean-
while, The Huffington Post
reported, the Farm Bureau is
opposed to revealing names
of individuals receiving the
subsidies. The FB leadership
believes the information is
available widely in the ag-
I wont look at your subsidy if you wont look at mine
gregate, and no breakdown is
needed.
However, those favoring
such a listing point out that
the aggregate list cannot be
used by reporters and ad-
vocacy groups to show how
the payment system is used,
and they anxiously point out
that members of Congress
and their spouses are not re-
vealed, so there is little gain
in transparency between the
old and new farm bills.
In noting inequities in
the reporting system, The
Huffington Post said U.S.
Rep. Stephen Fincher (R-
Tenn) and his wife received
$70,574 in direct payments
last year. This would not be
revealed under the new bill.
Fincher, by the way, is the
congressman that stirred up
a hornets nest during the
House farm bill debate by
saying that lawmakers should
cut spending on food stamps
because they shouldnt use
other peoples money to feed
the hungry.

Enroll now in continuous CRP
John R. Whitaker, State Ex-
ecutive Director for USDAs
Iowa Farm Service Agency
(FSA), recently announced the
restart of sign-up for continu-
ous CRP, including the Con-
servation Reserve Enhance-
ment Program, State Acres for
Wildlife Enhancement Initia-
tive (SAFE), Highly Erodible
Land Initiative, Westland Res-
toration Initiative, Pollinator
Habitat Initiative, Upland Bird
Habitat Buffer Initiative, and
Duck Nesting Habitat Initia-
tive. Sign-up for continuous
CRP began May 13 and will
continue through September
30, 2013.
With our general CRP sign-
up beginning on May 20th, re-
starting of the continuous CRP
program gives our producers
more options and exibility to
enroll acreage, said Whitaker.
Continuous CRP practices
are an important part of the
overall conservation picture in
production agriculture. Con-
tinuous practices include l-
ter strips, grassed waterways,
contour grass strips, riparian
buffers, windbreaks, shelter-
belts, and living snow fences
to name a few.
Whitaker added that there
are three SAFE projects that
specically target wildlife
concerns in Iowa. They are
Gaining Ground for Wildlife,
Iowa Pheasant Recovery, and
the Habitat for Early Succes-
sional and Neotropical Migra-
tory Forest Birds.
Producers can begin to en-
roll land on a continuous ba-
sis at their local FSA county
ofce. With the use of crop
reports, soil survey and geo-
graphic information system
data, local FSA staff can de-
termine a producers eligibil-
ity and the acres that could be
enrolled. Not only can land
be enrolled for the rst time,
producers with expiring con-
tinuous contracts should also
contact their local FSA ofce
for re-enrollment.
September 30, 2013, con-
tinuous CRP contracts on an
estimated 44,733 acres in Iowa
will expire. Producers with ex-
piring contracts or producers
with environmentally sensitive
land are encouraged to evalu-
ate their options under CRP.
After these contacts have ex-
pired, these acres are no longer
eligible for continuous CRP
enrollment.
Producers whose offers are
accepted in the sign-up can re-
ceive cost-share assistance for
planting covers and receive an
annual rental payment for the
length of the contract. Con-
tinuous enrollments provide
additional nancial incentives
for many practices. Producers
are encouraged to consider en-
rolling land into CRP in this
continuous, non-competitive,
sign-up. For more information
on CRP and other FSA pro-
grams, visit a local FSA coun-
ty ofce or www.fsa.usda.gov.

ISU Research Farm Field Day
highlights late 2013 start
Iowa Farm Service Agency
State Executive Director, John
R. Whitaker has announced
that the nomination period for
this years County Committee
election began June 17. The
nomination period continues
through August 1, 2013, with
elections taking place this fall.
The committee election
process allows all producers
to have a better chance of hav-
ing their opinions and ideas
expressed in the community in
Iowa and the nation. FSA sees
the role of our county com-
mittees as one that is vital,
said Whitaker. County Com-
mittees operate under ofcial
regulations for federal farm
programs. Committee mem-
bers apply their judgment, ex-
perience, and knowledge when
making local decisions.
Individuals that serve on
local FSA County Commit-
tee make decisions regard-
ing producers appeals; com-
modity price support loans
FSA accepting county committee nominations
and payments; conservation
programs; employing county
executive directors; incentive,
indemnity, and disaster pay-
ments for commodities; as
well as for other farm disas-
ter assistance. Members serve
three-year terms. Nationally,
there are more than 7,800
farmers and ranchers serving
on FSA county committees.
Committees consist of three to
ve members who are elected
by eligible local producers.
FSAs want to ensure that
we have a diverse committee,
not only in the physical make
up of the committee, but mak-
ing sure we have representative
from all forms of agriculture,
added Whitaker.
USDA is committed to in-
creasing the participation of
all farmers on the FSA County
Committees, with an emphasis
on women and minority farm-
ers. Beginning farmers are also
highly encouraged to become
involved.
To be eligible to serve on an
FSA county committee, a per-
son must:
Be of legal voting age and
eligible to vote in a county
committee election
Live in the LAA holding
an election
Participate or cooperate
in a program administered by
FSA.
Individuals may nominate
themselves or others as candi-
dates. Additionally, organiza-
tions representing minorities
and women may nominate can-
didates. To become a nominee,
all eligible individuals must
sign form FSA-669, which
includes a statement that the
nominee agrees to serve if
elected. Form FSA-669A and
other valuable information
about the FSA county commit-
tee elections is available at the
local FSA ofce and online at:
http://www.fsa.usda.gov/elec-
tions. All nomination forms
for the 2013 election must be
postmarked or received in the
local FSA ofce by close of
business August 1, 2013.
Following the nomination
process, FSA will mail bal-
lots to producers beginning
November 4, 2013. The com-
pleted ballots are due back to
the local county ofce via mail
or in person by December 2,
2013. Newly elected commit-
tee members and alternates
take ofce January 1, 2014.
To learn more about County
Committee elections contact
the local county ofce or visit
www.fsa.usda.gov.
Managing pastures to pro-
tect streams and water quality
are key topics for many beef
and dairy producers.
A pasture walk will be held
at the Jeremy and Jodi Peake
farm near Waukon Friday,
June 28 from 1-3 p.m. The
Peakes have a 30-head, grass-
based organic dairy and have
been farming for 12 years. In
addition to the dairy, there is
an apple orchard on the farm
with 1,000 trees. Marketing is
done on farm and to the sur-
rounding area. Guest speaker,
Dave Vetrano, Former DNR
Fish Manager, and Jeff Hast-
ings, project manager for
Driftless Area Restoration
Effort & Trout Unlimited
will be on hand to discuss is-
sues related to pasturing near
streams and management
practices that can help pro-
tect water quality. Directions
to the pasture walk (pasture
is not on home farm): From
Decorah, go east on Hwy 9,
turn left onto County Road
A52 (Old Stage Road) and
go about 4.5 miles. Turn left
(north) onto 138th Street. The
eld is about one-half mile on
the left; look for signs.
The Northeast Iowa Gra-
ziers plan pasture walks to
local farms to help produc-
ers learn how to better pas-
ture management can result
in both healthier prots and
a healthier environment. The
walks are organized by area
graziers and supported by
Iowa State University Exten-
sion and Outreach and the
Natural Resource Conserva-
tion Service.
Pasture walks are infor-
mal educational programs
designed to demonstrate one
or two key areas of pasture
management, as well as an-
swer any questions. Each has
a slightly different focus and
all producers who are depen-
dent on forage production are
invited to attend to improve
their own pasture manage-
ment.
This event is co-sponsored
by Practical Farmers of Iowa,
Organic Valley and Trout Un-
limited. For more informa-
tion, contact Jennifer Bentley
at 563-382-2949 or email
jbentley@iastate.edu.
Pasture walk will focus on
managing pastures and
protecting streams June 28

DCP Sign-up February
19 August 2, 2013.
2013 Crop Certication
deadline for CRP and DCP/
ACRE producers July 15,
2013.
Prevented Planting dead-
line July 15, 2013, a change
from previously announced.
Acreage Certication
Filing an accurate acreage
report for all crops and land
uses, including failed acreage
and prevented planting acre-
age, can prevent the loss of
benets for a variety of Farm
Service Agency and other
USDA programs. The nal
date to report perennial for-
age, fall wheat, and other fall-
seeded small grains for the
2013 crop year was Decem-
ber 15, 2012. However, there
is no late-ling fee assessed
unless the report is led af-
ter July 15, 2013. For 2014,
perennial forage, fall wheat,
and other fall seeded small
grains will have a December
15, 2013 reporting date.
The nal reporting date
for all other crops is July 15,
2013. (Note: perennial forage
initial seedings must be cer-
tied by the July 15 deadline.
The following years after the
initial seeding must be certi-
ed by December 15.)
IMPORTANT
With all the rain Allama-
kee County has received there
are producers who will have
some of the following:
1. Failed acreage must be
reported before disposition of
the crop.
2. Prevented planting must
be reported no later than July
15, 2013. After these dates, a
late le fee of $46.00 will be
assessed and proof of intend-
ing to plant, such as copies of
crop inputs, will need to be
provided. Please contact the
Allamakee County FSA Of-
ce immediately if you have
any questions.
DCP Sign-up
FSA began DCP sign-up
for 2013 crops started on Feb.
19, 2013. The DCP sign-up
period will end on Aug. 2,
2013.
USDAs Natural Resources
Conservation Service (NRCS)
is encouraging Iowa farm-
ers to explore the benets
of planting a cover crop on
elds that will go unplanted
this year.
Through this difcult sit-
uation, farmers with unplant-
ed elds will have to weigh
their program and insurance
options, says Barb Stewart,
state agronomist with NRCS
in Iowa. We encourage pro-
ducers to also assess agro-
nomic options for ensuring
long-term productivity.
Stewart says planting a
cover crop will help producers
with unplanted elds capture
applied nutrients, x nitrogen,
build organic matter, control
weeds, reduce erosion, and
improve soil health and bi-
ology during the remainder
of the season. Iowa farmers
can build considerable yield
potential for following year
USDA promotes cover crops
in prevented planting elds
crops, she says.
Cover crop selection and
management should focus
on maximizing both above
and below-ground biomass,
Stewart says. This allows for
nutrient cycling as deep in the
soil prole as possible.
Iowa NRCS recently de-
veloped a fact sheet for plant-
ing cover crops on prevented
planting elds. The fact sheet
includes a table with diverse
cover crop mixes to address
specic natural resource
concerns. This fact sheet is
available in the Agronomy
section of the Iowa NRCS
website (www.ia.nrcs.usda.
gov) or at your local NRCS
ofce.
Producers are advised to
check with their crop insur-
ance agents on prevented
planting requirements and
harvest restrictions for cover
crops.

degrees above normal. Tues-

Burke, accompanied her back
for a visit.
Lorraine Dresselhaus of
Galesville, Wis., came Satur-
day and is visiting at the Mrs.
Eliza Dresselhaus and Her-
man Krzbietke home.
River Notes
A blessed event which had
been impending for the past
several weeks occurred in
a cave near the head waters
of French Creek some time
during the past week, when
a turkey buzzard hatched her
clutch of one egg. Baby buz-
zard, though born without a
feather to his name, already
is well covered with white
down and takes enough inter-
est in life to resent the intru-
sion of a photographer. Ma
buzzard, contrary to maternal
instinct, shows no ght or re-
sistance to anyone handling
her youngster. Though her
nest was within a few feet of
a den of foxes, she incubated
her one egg unmolested by
them. Buzzards have a habit
of regurgitating their food
when molested, the stench
of which would put any self-
respecting skunk to shame,
hence, this may account for
the foxes leaving her alone.
Lansing Locals
During the time Mr. and
Mrs. C.O. Rud were on vaca-
tion, someone entered the up-
stairs apartment of the factory
and stole an ordinary table,
entering the place with a skel-
eton key. Mr. Rud has a strong
suspicion of who the party is,
and if the table is returned in
the same manner it was taken
nothing will be said, but if
not, there may be some legal
procedure in the matter.
Miss Helen Hawkins, who
has been making her home in
Waukon for several weeks,
came down last Thursday
evening and on Friday ac-
companied the Lansing band
on its good-will tour. She re-
turned to Waukon Saturday

Eddie Albertson, popular
athletic coach at Lansing high
school, is playing semi-pro
baseball with a team at Sor-
rell, Canada, so Dr. Fredrick-
son informs us. Eddie is a ne
ball player and would doubt-
less have made the big league
but for an injury to his knee a
couple of years ago.
The Milwaukee Ry. oil
weed sprayer passed north on
