MISSOURI FFA CONVENTION

Twelve Pages & 1 Insert TMU Testing Completed

Teresa Yoder Is State Proficiency Winner

Area Judging Teams Do Well At State Area FFA chapters came home with several honors earned during the Missouri State FFA Convention in Columbia, which concluded on Friday.

The Trenton FFA placed fourth out of 347 chapters in the state to earn a Top Chapter Award, which is earned by only 10 percent of chapters and recognizes those that actively implement the mission and strategies of the organization. Brook Kreatz and Kabel Oaks are the Trenton FFA advisors.

Trenton was recognized for its participation with the Trenton RepublicanTimes in the Thank-a-Farmer program, writing articles for an eight-part series that educates the public on facts and statistics about Missouri and American agriculture. Other activities included participation in the College Bound program, which provides members the opportunity to visit and tour post-secondary institutions that offer agricultural programs; volunteering at the Missouri Day Festival by preparing facilities, entering a float in the parade, organizing a petting zoo and providing a concession stand; and participation in the Operation Clean Streets, an annual spring activity in which FFA members help clean up trash and improve overall aesthetic value of the community.

Teresa Yoder of the Trenton FFA was named winner of the 2019 Proficiency Award for Agricultural Processing. A senior at THS, Miss Yoder’s supervised agricultural experience program includes employment and part ownership of TK’s Processing. Her responsiblities include butchering deer and chicken to specific cuts and products. She performs these tasks after school and over the weekend. In 2018, TK’s Processing processed roughly 160 deer and 600 chickens.

Zane Hickman of Princeton was named the second-place winner in Environmental Science and Natural Resource Management.

During judging held on Friday, Trenton’s Conduct of Chapter Meeting Team earned fifth place while the Parliamentary Procedure Team took sixth place, with both groups earning a Group I rating. Members of the Conduct of Chapter Meeting team were Colton Roy, Allison Yoder, Randy

ceived a Group I rating with Emma Baxter finishing as the ninth-place individual judge. Other team members were Kendra Betz, Anna Milazzo and

Trenton Municipal Utilities has received the official results from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources for the latest round of testing conducted at 40 Tier One locations as part of the utilities’ continued effort to monitor lead levels in the drinking water.

According to City Administrator/TMU Director Ron Urton, the results showed a reduction in lead levels, with the system meeting the Environmental Protection Agency’s 90th percentile action level of 15 parts per billion. Three of the 40 test locations registered above the action level, while the remaining 37 locations were below the action level.

“We are pleased to see improvements, with more locations below the action level compared to the last testing period,” Urton said. “Reduction of lead levels is the goal of the additional treatment process that was approved by DNR and installed in November. We will continue to utilize this process and hope to see further improvements during the next testing period.”

TMU, in accordance with DNR regulations, will continue to monitor and test the system’s water quality. All Tier One locations have been notified of the test results.

TMU encourages its customers to review these simple tips, that can reduce their risk of exposure to lead. Those tips include flushing water taps for one to two minutes until feeling a significant

SPORTS HIGH SCHOOL TENNIS

Trenton Bulldogs 9, Lexington Minutemen 0

Tennis Team Handles Lexington The tennis dual with Lexington on Thursday wasn’t much of a test for Trenton as the Bulldogs had three wins before the first serve was even tossed.

Lexington features just four players on this year’s Minutemen squad and Trenton didn’t have much trouble with those matches that were played. The Bulldogs dropped just one point in the entire dual, shutting out Lexington 9-0.

Nick Shields and Creed Houghton combined for an 8-0 win in doubles play and

Weston Otto and Jonin Villacampa picked up an 8-0 win as well. Trenton took a forfeit win in the third doubles match to go up 3-0.

In singles play, Gabe Swann scored an 8-0 win at number one and Jeremy Elliott won 8-0 at number two. Isaac Harris scored an 8-1 win at number three and Villacampa won 8-0 at number four. Trenton got forfeit wins at number five and six.

“This was a very nice win for our boys,” Trenton Coach David Sager said.

HIGH SCHOOL BASEBALL

“We had to do a little shuffling with our team due to Lexington only having four players, but everyone got a match and took care of business in their assignment.”

The win vaulted Trenton’s tennis team to 9-0 overall on the season.

The Bulldogs was scheduled to return to action on Monday, traveling to Kirksville for a dual with the Tigers. The Bulldogs will host Cameron today (Tuesday) with first serves at 4 p.m. on the THS courts.

Chillicothe Tournament

Bulldogs Handed Losses At Tourney The Trenton High School baseball team was denied a victory at the Chillicothe Tournament over the weekend, pushing the Bulldogs’ current losing streak to seven games.

The Bulldogs opened with a 5-0 loss to Lafayette on Friday and followed that up with a 155 loss to Maryville. Trenton took to the field in Chillicothe one final time on Saturday, where the Bulldogs incurred an 11-9 defeat at the hands of Cameron.

In two of the losses, Trenton was denied an attempt to rally by the tournament-imposed time limit. The 5-0 loss to Lafayette saw just six innings played and the 11-9 loss to Cameron ended after six frames as well. Trenton scored six runs in the sixth inning

against Cameron to draw within two runs, but didn’t get an opportunity to complete the comeback in the seventh after the time limit ended the game.

“Lafayette is a good baseball team and we competed with them right up until the end,” Trenton Head Coach Joel Hultman said. “There was an hour and 45 minute time limit on those games, so we ran out of time. We came back against Maryville and didn’t play very well and then got off to a really slow start for several reasons on Saturday. But, towards the end of the Cameron game we just ran out of time again. We were down 11-3 and scored six runs and had another runner in scoring position when we just ran out of outs.”

Trenton had three hits against Lafayette, coming from Quincy Griffin, Chase Otto and Riley Jones. Preston Harris (0-1) took the loss on the hill, allowing four runs on five hits and five walks in two innings of work.

Against Maryville, Trenton’s offense was better, collecting 10 hits. Sam Schilling had three of the hits with two RBIs and a run scored. Griffin and Jerrick Stotts each had two hits and a run scored. Otto (15) took the loss on the hill, allowing eight runs, five earned, on six hits and five walks in three innings. He had one strikeout as well.

The Bulldogs’ Saturday match-up with Cameron saw Trenton tally nine runs on eight more hits. eight different

batters had one hit each to account for the total. Tanner Lynch drove in three runs in the loss and Brice Gibler had two RBIs. Schilling (1-5) took the loss, allowing five runs, three earned, on three hits and three walks while striking out one in one and one-third innings pitched.

“It’s a tough tournament,” Hultman said. “These are really tough teams. Our kids keep getting better, though and they keep competing and working on their weaknesses.

We are excited about some games in this week and next week and then heading into districts. Hopefully we will be playing our best baseball.”

Trenton travels to Macon on Thursday for its next action.

The first pitch is set for 5 p.m.

HIGH SCHOOL GOLF Lawson Tournament/Richmond Tournament

Golfers Close Regular Season With Tourneys The Trenton High School boys golf team wrapped up the regular season with tournament action on Thursday and Friday.

LAWSON TOURNEY On Thursday, the Bulldogs competed in the Lawson Tournament. Trenton brought just three golfers to the event and therefore could not post a team score.

Trenton did have some individual success as both Gavin Roeder and Brycin Loyd posted a nine-hole score in the 40’s. Roeder led the Bulldogs with a score of 97, carding a 50 on the front nine and a 47 on the back. Loyd, meanwhile, carded a 48 on the front nine and a 57 on the back to arrive at his tournament total of 105. Juan Garcia rounded out the Trenton contingent, posting a score of 149 with nine-hole splits of 71 and 78.

“I was very happy with the boys,” Trenton Coach Travis Mullenix said. “They all played real well and continued

to improve. Gavin and Brycin both had nine-hole scores in the 40’s, Gavin broke 100 and Juan stepped up and shot his lowest total of the year. I think they all three had their lowest tournament scores of the season. They are starting to figure some things out and are taking it a little more serious.”

RICHMOND TOURNEY The Trenton boys took three golfers to the Richmond Tournament on Friday.

Roeder paced the Bulldogs again, shooting a 114 with nine-hole marks of 62 and 52.

Loyd wasn’t far behind his teammate with a score of 116, arriving at his total after a front-nine 57 and a back-nine 59. Juan Garcia once again rounded out the Trenton contingent, carding a score of 139 after a 71 on the front nine and a 68 on the back.

Trenton’s golfers were scheduled to be in district action on Monday, traveling to Kirksville for the start of postseason play.

Marcus Hounsom Relays

Trenton Girls Win Seventh Meet Title The Trenton High School girls track and field team appears to be peaking at the right time. At the Marcus Hounsom Relays at Putnam County High School in Unionville on Friday, the Bulldogs posted 183.5 team points - their second-highest total of the season - to blow the field away and capture their seventh meet title of the season.

Clark County, with 166 points, was second and Putnam County’s total of 88 rounded out the top-three in the 10-team field.

Trenton won just four events at the meet, but had eight runner-up finishes and double-placed in 13 events to push their team total to the top of the standings.

Trenton’s relay teams led the way as the 4x400-meter team of Kristi Ewing, Lexi Gott, McKayla Blackburn and Lexi Whitaker won with a time of 4:15.98 and the 4x200-meter team of Ewing, Gott, Chandler Lynch and Whitaker was first with a time of 1:50.05.

The 4x100- and 4x800-meter relay teams each came in second. Gott, Emma Curtis, Mykah Hurley and Shay Westerhof were runners-up in the 4x100 with a time of 55.22 and the 4x800 team of Gwyneth Foster, Katie Markell, Morgan King and Blackburn finished second with a time of 11:38.39.

Individually, Trenton got one gold medal on the track and one in the field.

Ewing won the 400-meter dash with a

time of 59.83, one of the many events where Trenton double-placed. Lynch was fifth in the event with a time of 1:06.61.

In the field, Maci Moore won the triple jump with a mark of 31-5. Hurley finished second to her teammate in that event, jumping 31-1 and Lynch was seventh in the triple jump with a mark of 27-11.

Hurley added a runner-up finish in the long jump with a mark of 16-3 and Moore was second in the shot put with a throw of 35-0 and third in the high jump after clearing 4-8.

Salem Croy placed in three throwing events, finishing second in the javelin with a throw of 107-2, sixth in the discus with a throw of 90-2 and eighth in the shot put with a throw of 28-11. Curtis was third in the pole vault with a mark of 6-0 and sixth in the long jump with a leap of 14-7 and Kendall Crowley was fourth in the discus with a throw of 95-6 and fourth in the javelin with a mark of 92-9 to round out the Bulldogs’ placewinners in the field.

On the track, Whitaker was second in both the 200-meter dash and 300-meter hurdles. Her time in the 200 was 26.96 while her time in the 300 hurdles was 47.46. Ewing, meanwhile, added a thirdplace finish in the 100-meter dash with a time of 13.05.

Other placewinners on the track for the Trenton girls included Evy McCullough, third in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 19.61 and sixth in the 300-meter hur-

dles with a time of 58.91; Foster, fourth in the 1,600-meter run with a time of 6:28.84 and sixth in the 800-meter run with a time of 2:50.85; Blackburn, fourth in the 800meter run with a time of 2:96.9; King, fourth in the 3,200-meter run with a time of 14:57.11; Markell, fifth in the 1,600meter run with a time of 6:32.23 and fifth in the 3,200-meter run with a time of 15:18.02; Westerhof, seventh in the 200meter dash with a time of 28.68; Teya Cooksey, eighth in the 100-meter dash with a time of 14.15; and Lily Berti, eighth in the 100-meter hurdles with a time of 23.02.

TRENTON BOYS A very shorthanded Trenton boys team placed last in the team standings with 20 points.

CONGRATULATIONS GRAHAM I would like to thank the students, staff, parents, patrons and community members for your amazing support of Graham McVay in his bid to be the Cintas Custodian of the Year.

Graham was named by Cintas as a national finalist after his initial nomination by the staff at THS. As one of only 10 finalists, Graham was listed on Cintas’ website with a picture, bio, and link to vote for him. The community pulled together through print and social media to vote for Graham, and the high school students posted signs in the commons in support of their beloved custodian. It was a great show of gratitude for Graham, and his many years of service to the district. I know many of the people who voted for Graham, both young and old, had him as their custodian during school and received many friendly hellos from him.

Graham has been a staple of the hallways at THS for over 30 years, and is a proud alumni from the class of 1982. Graham also graduated Trenton Junior College in 1984 and started his employment with the R-9 school district in 1988. Graham has been the day custodian at the high school for the vast majority of his tenure at THS and volunteers many hours to open the doors for community and alumni events. He is the first to arrive each morning, and will greet each student, staff and patron with kindness and his trademark smile.

The district will recognize Graham in the near future with the help of the sponsor of the event, Cintas. Graham will receive a check for $500 along with other special prizes provided by the local Cintas office.

Go Graham, and Go Bulldogs!

by Kristi Cutsinger, Program Coordinator of Health Sciences Have you ever heard of a medical sssistant? Did you know that North Central Missouri College Nursing and Health Sciences Department offers a twoyear medical assistant program? This is a program that will help you expand your skills and qualifications to begin a new endeavor in the world of health care.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, “The overall employment of a Medical Assistant is expected to grow 29 percent from 2016 to 2026.

The growth of the aging baby-boomer population Kristi Cutsinger will continue to increase demand for preventive medical services, which are often provided by physicians. As a result, physicians will hire more medical assistants to perform routine administrative and clinical duties, allowing the physicians to see more patients.”

NCMC’s Medical Assistant Program is a great opportunity for students as they can specialize in either administrative or clinical work.

Depending on the facility, they may be able to participate in both areas. MA’s have the luxury to meet/greet patients as they enter the facility, schedule appointments, enter patient information into medical records, perform insurance and billing, call insurance companies, and demonstrate a variety of other administrative duties. As a clinical medical assistant, they can room patients, take vital signs, do basic laboratory tests and give injections. Other duties include educate patients on medication or special diets, prepare patients for simple procedures, remove stiches, and draw blood.

NCMC’s MA Program consists of a two-year curriculum. It can be taken online with a couple classes that require two to four days of hands-on labs. At the end, students participate in an internship, where they complete 90 hours of competencies to help them prepare for the workforce. NCMC has been fortunate to have great students and facilities that work hard for the students to gain the experience they need. According to Director of Nurses Tami Easton, “Cameron Regional Medical Center has benefited enormously from the MA Program at NCMC. We have served as a clinical site for the students and have hired several who have completed the program. They are outstanding employees with an amazing skill set that works so well in our rural and hospital based clinics.”

According to student Tatum Griffin, “I have really enjoyed my time at NCMC and have especially enjoyed my time in the MA Program.

This program is amazing and allows students to get the one-on-one experience needed, to be a successful employee in the health field.

I am sad my time at NCMC is coming to an end, but I couldn’t have got to where I am today without the support of all my professors and amazing advisor.“ If you would like to find out more about the Medical Assistant Program, I would be glad to schedule a meeting with you to discuss any questions you may have. You may contact me at 660-357-6284 or email me at kcutsinger@mail.ncmissouri.edu. Visit the NCMC website (www.ncmissouri.edu) to aid in your preparation by clicking on “Degrees and Academics” then “Degrees & Certificates.”

Mayor Speaks To Lions Club The Trenton Lions Club met on Tuesday, April 23 in the First Christian Church Family Activity Center.

President Seth Cox led the pledge to the U.S. flag, followed by a prayer by Rev. Steve Martin. George Moore served as “tail twister.”

Program chairperson George Moore, introduced Trenton mayor Linda Crooks. Ms. Crooks, a native of Trenton, expressed her pleasure to return to her hometown and her commitment to public service.

A graduate of Trenton High School, North Central Missouri College and the University of Central Missouri, Ms. Crooks spent her professional life in education and coaching in Texas, Utah and Arizona before returning to Trenton following her retirement. She wishes to give back to the community and make a difference through becoming involved in civic matters, making connections and listening to citizens’ concerns. Current projects facing mayoral and city council actions are downtown revitalization, the wastewater treatment plant and the 17th Street Bridge replacement.

We Need Your Help The North 65 Center is looking for volunteers to deliver “Meals on Wheels” to Seniors in the Grundy County Area.

For more information, call the North 65 Center at 359-3058.

In recognition of National Arbor Day and Earth Day, Grundy County 4-H members planted a “Liberty Tree” on Friday, April 26 at Crowder State Park. The local effort, sponsored by Crader Distributing and local STIHL dealers in partnership with the Missouri 4-H Foundation, is part of an initiative for 4-H groups to plant, nurture and celebrate historic trees in their communities. The original Liberty Tree was an elm tree that stood near the Boston Commons during the American Revolutionary War era, with several other towns eventually designating their own Liberty Trees in support of the resistance spread throughout the colonies during the war. To preserve the legacy of the tree, a budgrafting program was launched, with one of the trees being donated to the Grundy County 4-H.

R-5 Board Hires New Principal A current administrator in the Craig R-3 School District will be the new elementary principal in the Grundy R-5 School District next year.

Jennifer Dyer was hired by the R-5 Board of Education during a closed session earlier this month. Mrs. Dyer will assume her new duties on July 1

at a salary of $62,000. She replaces Dr. Anne Billington, who has resigned effective at the end of the school year.

The board also hired Eric Dyer as the seventh through 12th grade science instructor.

He currently teaches science in the Craig R-3 District.

Extension Gets Grant The Grundy County University of Missouri Extension Council has been awarded a $4,350 CollaborACTION Grant.

The grant will assist efforts in the organization’s Step Out and Up to Leadership program. The program will teach life skills to incarcerated women preparing to re-enter the community, with the goal being to help women find a place for their strengths in the community by providing leadership and life skills.

According to County Engagement Specialist Meridith Berry, approximately 100 women are released from the

Chillicothe Correctional Center each month, with many remaining in the area. One of the most dominant issues these women face upon release is low self-esteem. Ms. Berry said the extension council wanted to help women be successful by providing tools and building the confidence to invest in themselves and their community.

Participants in Step Out and Up to Leadership program will set goals for themselves while learning how to work as a team member, manage conflict and listen to others, all skills necessary to be a contributing community member.

MISSOURI FFA CONVENTION

Twelve Pages & 1 Insert TMU Testing Completed

Teresa Yoder Is State Proficiency Winner

Area Judging Teams Do Well At State Area FFA chapters came home with several honors earned during the Missouri State FFA Convention in Columbia, which concluded on Friday.

The Trenton FFA placed fourth out of 347 chapters in the state to earn a Top Chapter Award, which is earned by only 10 percent of chapters and recognizes those that actively implement the mission and strategies of the organization. Brook Kreatz and Kabel Oaks are the Trenton FFA advisors.

Trenton was recognized for its participation with the Trenton RepublicanTimes in the Thank-a-Farmer program, writing articles for an eight-part series that educates the public on facts and statistics about Missouri and American agriculture. Other activities included participation in the College Bound program, which provides members the opportunity to visit and tour post-secondary institutions that offer agricultural programs; volunteering at the Missouri Day Festival by preparing facilities, entering a float in the parade, organizing a petting zoo and providing a concession stand; and participation in the Operation Clean Streets, an annual spring activity in which FFA members help clean up trash and improve overall aesthetic value of the community.

Teresa Yoder of the Trenton FFA was named winner of the 2019 Proficiency Award for Agricultural Processing. A senior at THS, Miss Yoder’s supervised agricultural experience program includes employment and part ownership of TK’s Processing. Her responsiblities include butchering deer and chicken to specific cuts and products. She performs these tasks after school and over the weekend. In 2018, TK’s Processing processed roughly 160 deer and 600 chickens.

Zane Hickman of Princeton was named the second-place winner in Environmental Science and Natural Resource Management.

During judging held on Friday, Trenton’s Conduct of Chapter Meeting Team earned fifth place while the Parliamentary Procedure Team took sixth place, with both groups earning a Group I rating. Members of the Conduct of Chapter Meeting team were Colton Roy, Allison Yoder, Randy

ceived a Group I rating with Emma Baxter finishing as the ninth-place individual judge. Other team members were Kendra Betz, Anna Milazzo and

Trenton Municipal Utilities has received the official results from the Missouri Department of Natural Resources for the latest round of testing conducted at 40 Tier One locations as part of the utilities’ continued effort to monitor lead levels in the drinking water.

According to City Administrator/TMU Director Ron Urton, the results showed a reduction in lead levels, with the system meeting the Environmental Protection Agency’s 90th percentile action level of 15 parts per billion. Three of the 40 test locations registered above the action level, while the remaining 37 locations were below the action level.

“We are pleased to see improvements, with more locations below the action level compared to the last testing period,” Urton said. “Reduction of lead levels is the goal of the additional treatment process that was approved by DNR and installed in November. We will continue to utilize this process and hope to see further improvements during the next testing period.”

TMU, in accordance with DNR regulations, will continue to monitor and test the system’s water quality. All Tier One locations have been notified of the test results.

TMU encourages its customers to review these simple tips, that can reduce their risk of exposure to lead. Those tips include flushing water taps for one to two minutes until feeling a significant

Dear Annie: My friend Jess and I recently moved into a three-bedroom apartment together. We each have one cat.

We knew it would be challenging to integrate the cats at first, but we figured that it wouldn't be too difficult in such a spacious place. Boy were we wrong. Every night is fight night for these cats. I wake up several times a night to them body slamming each other, from the sound of it. I can't tell if they're fighting or just roughhouse playing, but it doesn't sound good. I get out of bed to detach them; two hours later we repeat the whole scene. Jess and I have tried separating them at night, but our place is carpeted and when we shut the doors the cats start trying to dig trenches underneath.

We don't want them destroying the carpet of our rental. We're locked into our lease for another nine months -- and moving is such a pain that I'd hate to have to move again, even after our lease is up. Do you or your readers have any tips for making cats get along? The sleepless nights are starting to catch up with me.

ducing them to each other via scent by exchanging blankets that they sleep on, for instance.

But there's no use mewing over spilled milk.

I'd recommend using a feline pheromone diffuser, such as Feliway, to foster a more relaxed environment for the cats. Install several throughout the apartment for best results. Also, be sure there are ample feline facilities: Vets often recommend one litter box per cat plus one more, so you should have three. And, of course, play with them and be sure they get lots of exercise. Do everything you can during the day to tucker the little tigers out for the night. If I hear any ace tips from readers, I'll be sure to print them here.

Dear Annie: Every year when Easter comes around, many well-meaning people purchase adorable bunnies for their children.

I have two rabbits I adore.

However a huge amount of work is required for these pets, and I wanted to share some of my tips and warnings.

1) Rabbits are constantly chewing on furniture, cutting wires, etc. A room that is "rabbit-proofed" is needed for everyone's safety.

2) A good-sized cage is

needed, but also give the rabbit some free time to run around outside of the cage every day, too. I let mine run around free about five hours a day.

3) Most rabbits can be trained to use a litter box, but it is normal for them to leave "pellets" on the floor that are easy to clean up.

4) They need to eat hay all day so their intestinal systems run properly. I give my bunnies rabbit kibble twice a day and vegetables twice a day as well.

Check the internet for the right vegetables to give them. They are not able to vomit so everything they eat must be carefully chosen.

5) Litter should be changed twice a day. They enjoy kicking litter and hay outside their cages, so keep the vacuum handy!

Rabbits are one of the most abandoned animals in our society. However, if you are ready to do the work, you will have an adorable companion for a long time to come! -- Mrs. Roberta F. Dear Mrs. Roberta: These are all great and timely tips. I'd like to add that anyone thinking of getting a rabbit should adopt, not shop. As you mentioned, rabbits are frequently abandoned, and as they can live up to 10 years, there are plenty of bunnies in shelters right now in need of fur-ever homes. Thanks for writing.

Whither Germany?

What’s with the German economy? Another key indicator is pointing down, in this case the business climate index compiled by the Ifo Institute in Munich.

Analysts had thought April’s reading would show an increase in optimism among the 9,000 businesses surveyed.

Wrong. The index ticked down, supporting the pessimists who think Europe’s biggest economy will grow slowly this year.

The government has already cut its forecast for the second time, to only 0.5%.

Weaker global trade, the threat of tariffs from the U.S., and slower growth in China

play a role. Some think Germany’s slowdown has bottomed out after one-time factors like last year’s disruption to auto sales after carmakers couldn’t get vehicles certified for new emissions limits in time.

Unemployment is remarkably low, at 3.1%. Yet manufacturing remains weak.

So when’s the rebound?

Recent data like the Ifo survey suggests the wait may be longer than expected. That would be one more reason for the European Central Bank to keep interest rates at record lows — zero for credit to banks and minus 0.4% on deposits from them — well into next year or even longer.

120 Germany’s Ifo business climate index 2015 = 100, seasonally adjusted

Weaker growth?

April’s reading disappointed analysts who had expected an increase in optimism.
