Former mayor Diane Weldin hoping to regain seat

By Jeff Forward Former Hampton Mayor Diane Weldin knew she’d run for mayor this year the instant she lost to Shawn Dietz in 2011. “I made that decision two years ago, on Nov. 11,� Weldin said of deciding to run for mayor again. “I felt sad I didn’t win. I’ve been attending council meetings. I keep myself abreast of what’s going on.�

Weldin, who was mayor of Hampton from 2003-2011, said she only lost the election to Dietz by a

mere 16 votes; and that she in part credits the loss to the belief that many of her supporters from the Hampton-Dumont teaching ranks were unable to vote that day due to a lengthy conference that kept them from going to the ballot box. “I hope our voter turn-out will increase,� Weldin said.

Weldin is a registered nurse and works for the Hampton-Dumont Community School District, where she provides care to students at the four district schools on a rotating ba-

sis. She is married to her husband, Ron, who is retired.

Now, two years after the loss to Dietz, she seems more determined than ever to regain her former role DV PD\RU ¹ WXUQLQJ LQ DQ RI¿FLDO FDQdidate declaration on Monday with more than 100 signatures – well above the 25 needed.

Plagge listens intently to Jay Waddingham give an update on county projects during the Aug. 26 supervisors meeting.

By Jeff Forward Inspired by a pep talk from one of his grandsons and overwhelming support from his family and the community, Franklin County Supervisor Jerry Plagge found a way to keep battling the cancer that was ravaging his body.

Another light night for the Hampton city council

By Jeff Forward The Hampton City Council had one of its shortest meetings of the year on Aug. 22, with council members meeting for slightly longer than 30 minutes before adjourning.

The biggest item on the agenda was a potential public hearing for an appeal of a nuisance violation for local property owner Milton Hey-

de. However, Heyde called and informed the council he could not attend the meeting and then cancelled his appeal. By cancelling, Heyde will have to comply with the nuisance violation notice.

In other business, the council unanimously OK’d the selling of a 1967 Plymouth Fury station wagon owned by the Hampton Fire Depart-

ment. The vehicle will be sold on the eBay vehicle auction Web site with a minimum reserve bid of $2,000.

The council also approved unanimously an ordinance closing an 81-foot portion of the alley between Federal Street South and First Street Southeast – which runs between the Hampton Public Library and the

It’s to improve our image as a community and draw businesses in.�

The program is in its third year under the supervision of the chamber’s design committee. Prior to that, Christianson said, a similar type of program was conducted through Main Street Iowa.

Under the grant program – funded annually by a $10,000 donation by the City of Hampton – local businesses in the downtown TIFF district can apply for matching grants of up to $1,000 from the chamber.

The grant money can be used for storefront improvements such as new awnings, signage, paint, and window repair or replacement, Christianson said. The business owner pays for the project up front and then gets reimbursed after completion of the project.

Local man finds his green thumb after planting bucket garden Hilton set to retire after nearly 38 years with Hampton Police Dept.

By Nick Pedley One Hampton man has been enjoying the fruits – or, vegetables – of his labor after planting a rather unorthodox garden at his apartment this summer.

Jeff Dellinger was presented with a head-scratching situation earlier this June. He wanted to plant a garden in his apartment’s backyard at the Hampton Community Housing complex, but his landlords wouldn’t allow him to till up the ground. They said the housing board would have to vote to approve the garden addition, but Dellinger didn’t want to deal with that long and arduous pro-

cess.

I’m looking forward to full retirement and being with my wife and family more,â€? he said. “This was pretty much my life.â€?

Hilton got his start in Hampton after Chief Bud Nelson hired him in November 1975. However, the Waterloo native didn’t always plan on pursing a career in law enforcement. Hilton enlisted in the Army in 1966 after graduating high school and served in France, Germany and Vietnam.

Dellinger said the garden came together faster than he expected.

He got free unwanted pickle buckets from local restaurants, compost from Hampton’s community pile and seeds from Rainbow Feed &

from his next-door neighbors and brush up on his gardening skills. After all, he had never planted something like this before. “I had always been interested in it, but didn’t really start until this year. I got the idea because it had been in the news quite a bit with Michelle Obama planting a garden at the White House,� he said. “Prices

the buckets, you don’t have to deal with any weeds and you can just move the plants when the weather is bad.�

The garden has remained relatively problem-free throughout the summer. Dellinger said he waters his plants twice a day and moves them around to get the best sunlight, but that’s about it. The sweet corn had trouble pollinating because of low temperatures, he suspected, but that’s been the lone issue. He’s picked beans and tomatoes twice and said they’re ready for another harvest. The sweet corn is still growing, but Dellinger was hopeful it would be ready soon.

“I might be able to do a little canQLQJ ZLWK VRPH KHOS ,¡OO GHĂ€QLWHO\ try to freeze some of the sweet corn or green beans,â€? he said. “Nothing tastes better during the winter.â€?

Dellinger has become quite involved and attached to his garden after seeing its success. Many neighbors and passersby have asked him about his plants, and he’s enjoyed telling them about the process. “He even goes out there in his chair and sits and watches it grow!� joked Dellinger’s mother, Jennie.

Dellinger expected the garden would quit producing around mid-September or little later. However, he has no plans on stopping

there. He said he’s going to move his plants to the garden at the Church of the Living Word next summer so he can have more space. He’s still going to use buckets, but said the move is necessary so he can diversify his garden. Dellinger wants to grow potatoes, onions, broccoli and carrots, but also has his eye on blueberries, raspberries and strawberries for next year.

He’ll need more buckets, but Dellinger welcomed the challenge. “I’ve enjoyed it quite a bit – learning on my own and from a few other people,� he said. “There’s nothing like going out your front door and getting fresh produce.�

The spark was lit and the rest is history. Hilton spent almost 38 years with the Hampton Police Department and earned many achievements throughout his long career.

He said each case is of it’s own particular importance, and playing favorites wouldn’t be fair. “My greatest achievements throughout my career have been my service to the community, giving my best advice and encouragement to others toward an end result of improving their circumstances, and lives saved because of my direct and indirect actions,� he wrote.

Hampton Police Chief Bob Schaefer, who’s worked with Hilton for over 25 years, said the department is losing one of its best. “I’ve enjoyed working with him. He’s a very good investigator – he’s gotten a lot of confessions and solved a lot of cases. He will be missed,� said Schaefer.

Hilton plans to spend more time with his wife, Shelley, and eightyear-old daughter, Katie. He has two grown daughters living near Minneapolis and six grandchildren whom he hopes to visit more often. “I wish the department the best,� Hilton wrote. “I feel the city is in good hands with Chief Robert Schaefer and the other members of this well-trained police department.�

Plagge: From Page 1 al-month long stint at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., where he underwent the long process of stem cell transplantation. Along the way, he developed pneumonia, which Plagge said, “really put me between a rock and a hard place.�

Plagge said his doctors told him the stem cell transplant was his best bet, but that it had its dangers – notably that his immune system would be weakened during the process. “It’s like an organ transplant.

They go through a process where they capture your stem cells,� Plagge described. “They capture all of your stem cells. You have absolutely no immune cells. You become vulnerable.�

Plagge said that his doctors opted to transplant his own stem cells as opposed to those from a donor in order to lessen the risk of his body rejecting the transplanted stem cells. “That didn’t happen. My body rejected my own stem cells,� Plagge said. “It’s very, very rare.�

That was when he developed pneumonia. “I had multiple issues,� Plagge said. “Pneumonia, it knocks it out of you.�

Charlane Pralle-Janssen, marketing team leader for ABCM, said she learned of Plagge’s need for a van to get to the meet after reading a news article about his plight.

Pralle-Janssen said she brought up the issue during an ABCM meeting with founder Dick Allbee. “I said, ‘Jerry Plagge needs a scooter to go see his grandson do track,’� Pralle-Janssen recalled. “Dick (Allbee) said, ‘I don’t care what you have to do, make it happen.’�

ABCM donated the medical van and the services of driver Larry Odem. Once in Des Moines at the state meet, a scooter was supplied

by Hammer Medical Supply, a tent was set up, and Plagge was able to VLW QHDU WKH ÂżQLVK OLQH DQG VHH 5LOH\ compete in one event.

Plagge said he was very grateful for the donation from ABCM. “I truly appreciated that,� Plagge said. “It was absolutely a great experience. I stayed for one of his events before I had to leave.�

The entire experience seemed to reinvigorate him during his battle with cancer and pneumonia, Plagge said. “It added that, ‘by golly, you can do that’ feeling,� Plagge said. “If I can do that (attend the track meet), I can do this (beat cancer).�

We all want our children/grandchildren to have friends-good friends; that are honest, good listeners, trustworthy, patient, kind, encouraging, fun-loving, and forgiving. Remember to take time to introduce and encourage your loved ones to develop a personal relationship with JESUS-their forever friend. Yes, WHAT A FRIEND WE HAVE IN JESUS!

pervisors have become close friends and are always there to support each other, much like athletes on a sports team. “It is tough when you don’t have one of your teammates there. You really do care about your teammates,�

Validation is aiding the enemy When I was a kid I lived in California where we had to pay to park much of the time. If we had a doctor’s appointment we would take the ticket in to get it validated. The receptionist would stamp it and that meant the doctor paid for our parking.

Validation came to mind as I received an email alerting me to the fact Governor Branstad supports Common Core, a system of standards in education. Common Core is implemented by states in response to bribes from the federal government and is dictated by the United Nations to prepare the youth of the world to be productive corporate drones. An example of a pornographic book required for eleventh graders was used in the email to illustrate the evil of Common Core.

Common Core is not the problem.

Government schools are the problem.

People who are concerned about such programs as Common Core are being tricked into debating these details rather than the whole concept of forced schooling. In a free country we should not stand for such a thing as compulsory education or compulsory funding of education.

We should not be put in a position of breaking the law to keep our kids from porn.

There are numerous issues where we fall into the same trap. Illegal immigration is one. If anyone should be against illegal immigration it should be big government liberals. The two main issues involving illegal immigrants are that they use government services and “steal� jobs. In using

Sukup attends trade mission to China with Branstad Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s huge population, fast-growing middle class and growing appetite for meat make its relationship with one of Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leading food-producing states a strategic priority.

For the state of Iowa and its leading companies, a strong relationship with China makes great business sense.

So there was much to celebrate on a recent trade mission that marked the 30-year anniversary of the sister-state relationship between Iowa and the Chinese province of Hebei.

The April 12-18 trade mission led

by Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad included Gov. Scott Walker of Wisconsin and Gov. Bob McDonnell of Virginia, as well as Sukup Manufacturing Co. President Charles Sukup and representatives of several Iowa businesses, associations and educational institutions. They visited Beijing, Tianjin, Baoding City and Shijiazhuang.

The focus of the trade mission was to promote Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s global partnership with China, especially in the areas of expanded trade and direct investment in Iowa. The trip included meetings with current and potential buyers of Iowa exports. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is no secret that this sister state UHODWLRQVKLS KDV EHHQ YHU\ EHQHÂżFLDO to the people of Iowa and we look forward to more success in the future with this unique partnership,â&#x20AC;?

Branstad said in a news release on the trip. Branstad signed the origi-

nal agreement in 1983 establishing the sister state relationship between Iowa and Hebei province. â&#x20AC;&#x153;International trade is extremely important to the people of Iowa as it supports tens of thousands of jobs right here in our state,â&#x20AC;? said Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds.â&#x20AC;&#x153;China is an important trading partner with Iowa, importing $3.2 billion worth of goods last year.â&#x20AC;?

Based on the amount of corn he saw piled on the ground in China, it appears there is potential for grain bin sales, Sukup said, adding that with the fast- growing middle-class and greater appetite among the Chinese for meat, there is a growing need for grain-handling and storage

equipment.

While the country of 1.37 billion people has tried to remain very VHOI VXIÂżFLHQW WKHUH LV D JURZLQJ UHliance on imports, Sukup said, which presents more opportunity for Iowa businesses in particular. Seventy percent of the soybeans China uses are imported, with half coming from the United States.

The trade mission included a meeting between Gov. Branstad and Chinaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new president, Xi Jinping, who visited Iowa last year and in 1985 while on a trade mission. The 1985 trip included a tour of Sukup Manufacturing Co. and tea at the home of Steve and Vicki Sukup.

FGH ambulances equipped with power cots The Franklin General Hospital (FGH) Emergency Medical Services (EMS) team is able to lift patients more smoothly and is less likely to suffer back injuries themselves, thanks to two new battery-powered ambulance cots.

The cots â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one for each FGH ambulance â&#x20AC;&#x201C; feature an innovative hydraulic system that raises and lowers the patient with the touch of a button. In addition, a retractable section allows the cot to be shortened for greater mobility in tight spaces. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Already, after using the cots for just a few days, we notice such a difference, we donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know how we managed without them,â&#x20AC;? says FGH EMS Manager Erran Miller. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is becoming more common to see larger patients than in the past,â&#x20AC;?

Miller says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The new cotsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; unassisted lift capacity makes it much easier for a crew of two to manage transporting them. In the past, having a large patient would have required that we call in additional resources to the scene, delaying transport.â&#x20AC;? $QRWKHU EHQHĂ&#x20AC;W IRU SDWLHQWV LV that the new cots include a feature that allows the patientâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s knees to be

Franklin General Hospital EMS crew members (left to right) Erran Miller, Jen Weiler and Matthew Retz demonstrate how easily a patient can be lifted with the new power cot. raised. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Patients often comment on how rough an ambulance ride is,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This will relieve some of that.

Being able to raise their knees takes some pressure off their backside and should make them more comfortable.â&#x20AC;?

Miller says his crew appreciates

the hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s investment in this equipment. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are grateful that our board and management recognize the importance of keeping us safe, as well as keeping our patients safe and comfortable.â&#x20AC;?

of Sukup Manufacturing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In our meetings with Chinese companies it was quite an attention-getter to say that the current president of China had toured our plant many years ago,â&#x20AC;? Charles Sukup said.

The outpouring of generosity and gifts was heartwarming, he said.

During the sister state banquet, he reunited with several people who visited Sukup Manufacturing with Xi in 1985. They presented Sukup with a hardcover picture book commemorating that visit, and with an ornate scroll showing the Great Wall of China. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were warm and friendly and excited to talk about WKHLU YLVLW WR 6KHIÂżHOG QHDUO\

years ago. They even saw me off at the hotel when it was time to leave,â&#x20AC;?

Sukup said.

He said he was impressed by how modern China has become and how fast it is progressing. When company founder Eugene Sukup and his wife, Mary, visited in 1984, the tallest building was about six stories, but the country now hosts some of the tallest in the world.

Many of the building names and signs in Beijing were in English, and many of the people â&#x20AC;&#x201C; who were very friendly and open â&#x20AC;&#x201C; spoke English, Charles Sukup said.

Others on the trade mission included representatives of the Iowa Economic Development Authority, Iowa Corn Growers Association and Iowa Corn Promotion Board, Iowa Farm Bureau, Iowa Soybean Association, ADM, Cargill, DuPont Pioneer, John Deere, Monsanto, Pella Corp., University of Northern Iowa, Iowa State University and the University of Iowa.

Sukup said the trip included a visit to the Great Wall of China and to the Forbidden City, and to a Chinese automobile manufacturing plant.

Overall, the trade mission produced and/or enhanced many contacts with leaders of companies and organizations involved in international trade, and showed there will be increased opportunities in China for companies interested in selling products there, Sukup said.

Hometown: Dows, IA. I came to CAL in August 2012 to help fill a long-term teaching position as 9-12 Special ED teacher.

ness and transparency with the council.

The issue of transparency and openness on the council is one Weldin admits has been a hot topic with her critics. She denies that while mayor she was secretive and said the council was very open.

“Yes, they thought we were not being transparent there,” Weldin said.

“It was very transparent and always has been. You have to answer to the public, and we did. We were as transparent as we could be.”

Weldin said as far as being fiscally responsible, she wants to remind the citizens of Hampton that when she was mayor she helped the city become more prosperous.

“Making sure the budget is balance and we have a surplus is the goal,” Weldin said.

Streets are a big issue for Weldin and she admitted that local roads do need improvements.

“It’s always a big issue,” she said of the condition of local roads. “We always chip away at them each year.

It’d be great to do a big chunk at once if we had the money.”

Weldin also wants more community involvement and noted that she feels working together cooperatively is the best way to make Hampton a great place to live.

“What it takes is everyone working cooperatively together,” Weldin said.

“Today, there’s good council members on there. But, we must be cooperative and work together with community entities.”

Weldin said the city must continue to enhance and develop relationships with organizations such as the Franklin County Development Association, the Hampton Public Library, local senior centers, and other area groups.

“They all do great things for the community,” Weldin said. “I’d like to see more community support. If they would call their council members and give them information that’d be helpful.”

One big area Weldin wants to improve is having the city council follow up on any possible goals

set during their annual goal-setting meetings.

“Working on paying attention to what’s going on in the goal-setting meetings is important,” she added.

“If you set goals, you have to follow through on them.”

Weldin said she is seeking office

for the same reason she did in 2002 when she first ran for mayor – to be a public servant.

“My goal is striving to make Hampton the best it can be for all citizens,” Weldin said. “Not just a select few. We want to make Hampton a great place to live.”

GRUNDY CENTER â&#x20AC;&#x201C; AGWSR broke open a close game with three second-quarter touchdowns on its way to a 36-13 opening-night victory over Grundy Center at Spartan Stadium.

By JOHN JENSEN

The Grundy Register The Cougars (1-0) built a 29-7 halftime lead on their way to their third victory over the Spartans in the teamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; last four meetings.

Our passing game kind of got going a little bit, but it was kind of sporadic.â&#x20AC;?

As expected, AGWSR came out with a power running game featuring several backs. No fewer than four Cougar runners had 10 carries or more, including quarterback Cody Williams who effectively worked the option game. Williams, who won a three-way battle for the starting quarterback spot, completed 3-of8 passes for 44 yards and ran for 80 yards on 14 carries. Fullback Clay Meinders paced the Cougars with 125 yards on the ground while halfbacks Clay Bohner and Levi 6WRFNGDOH Ă&#x20AC;QLVKHG ZLWK DQG yards, respectively. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You know weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to run the

While Eckhardt was pleased with his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lack of penalties and turnovers, he was upset that the Cougars did not force any turnovers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Very sad,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We plan to get three turnovers a game. We had opportunities for probably three or four, but we have to work on tackling, we have to work on WXUQRYHUV ZH MXVW KDYH WR ZRUN RQ sharpening things up.â&#x20AC;?

Busch, who is currently 12th in the points standings, didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem concerned about his plans for next season. Right now he said his â&#x20AC;&#x153;main goal is making the Chase.â&#x20AC;?

They bill Bristol Motor Speedway as â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Last Great Colosseum,â&#x20AC;? a place where modern-day gladiators do battle in heavily-armored stock cars. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s why more than 100,000 people came on Saturday night for the annual race and why almost all those in attendance ďŹ gured Kasey Kahne might send race leader Matt Kenseth spinning in the ďŹ nal laps when he had the chance. After all, Kahne had been wrecked four times by Joe Gibbs Racing cars this year, including Kenseth, and this seemed to be the most opportune moment for revenge. Kahne did no such thing.

Instead, he tried to win the race with a clean pass over a thrilling ďŹ nal 12 laps, but Kenseth held him off and clinched at least a wild-card spot in the Chase.

Bridge of Hope celebrates first Hampton grad Katy Thoreson, Director of Bridge of Hope, North Central Iowa has anQRXQFHG WKH JUDGXDWLRQ RI WKH ÂżUVW SDUticipant to complete the life program at WKH RUJDQL]DWLRQÂśV DIÂżOLDWH ORFDWLRQ LQ Hampton.

Thoreson said due to the sensitive nature of the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s counseling, the name of the graduate has been changed to protect her privacy.

The graduate, Ann, is a mother of three and recently divorced. Ann came to Bridge of Hope with the dream of, â&#x20AC;&#x153;â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Having a nice home and car and being able to provide for my kids the way I should be,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Thoreson said.

Ann told staffers, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have no family here. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s basically me against the world.â&#x20AC;? Thoreson explained that Annâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family is out of state and not at close reach for support, which can make things quite a bit harder. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We all need help once in a while and someone who can be there to help or even just to listen can make a big difference,â&#x20AC;? Thoreson said.

According to Thoreson, Ann expressed frustration and a sense of depression in trying to meet lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s demands, but she was also determined.

Under the Bridge of Hope program, Ann worked to set goals that included building a support system of friends, RYHUFRPLQJ WUDQVSRUWDWLRQ EDUULHUV Âżnancial budgeting, obtaining a GED, and a hope to eventually attend college, Thoreson said.

The Bridge of Hope program partners each participant with a mentoring group from a local church to build long-term supportive friendships. Mentors commit to building unconditional friendships, being role models and offering practical help. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This component is what sets Bridge of Hope apart from other rental assistance programs,â&#x20AC;? Thoreson said. Âł<RX FDQ SURYLGH ÂżQDQFHV EXW \RX GRQÂśW change someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s situation without being there for them and helping them over-come the barriers, from providing guidance and advice to providing emotional support.â&#x20AC;?

supportive for Ann,â&#x20AC;? Thoreson added. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But more importantly, they have become lifelong friends.â&#x20AC;?

Bridge of Hope focuses on 15 individual components of measurement in WKH DUHDV RI ÂżQDQFLDO VWDELOLW\ KRXVLQJ life-changing friendships, and holistic living.

Upon acceptance into the Bridge of Hope program, Ann was measured to be â&#x20AC;&#x153;at-riskâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;in-crisisâ&#x20AC;? in 10 of the 15 measurements. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Today, as Ann graduates the program, she is measured as â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;safe, stable or thrivingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in f14 of those measurements,â&#x20AC;?

Thoreson reported.

While in Bridge of Hope, Ann was able to secure safe and secure housing, improve her employment and income, gain better transportation, obtain a GED, and build life-changing friendships. At Annâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s graduation celebration, she announced she has enrolled in college and is scheduled to begin this fall. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are so very proud of her,â&#x20AC;?

The family is then matched with a mentoring group trained to provide helpful, ongoing support. The unique result offers families an effective way to break the cycle of poverty and homelessness by creating a secure home and a community of supportive friends.

Thoreson said Bridge of Hopeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s message is that a lifelong difference can be made for these families by combining the efforts of volunteer, church-based mentoring groups with outcome driven services provided by professional staff.

Through a simple, yet powerful, planned ministry of friendship, church groups can be helped to reach those in their own community who are hurting, Thoreson added. Funded entirely through donations from individuals, churches, businesses and local foundations, Bridge of Hope is a cost effective approach to ending and preventing homelessness for single women and their children.

2013 Franklin County 4-Hâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ers Iowa State Fair results

Boyd Dohrmann of Franklin County was inducted into the 2013 Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame during a ceremony at the 4-H Exhibits Building at the Iowa State Fair on Sunday, Aug. 18. Eighty-three Iowa counties participated this year and selected 110 inductees for their outstanding service and dedication to 4-H. InGXFWHHV RU WKHLU VXUYLYLQJ IDPLO\ PHPEHUV ZHUH SUHVHQWHG D FHUWLÂżFDWH E\ WKH Iowa 4-H Foundation as they were introduced on stage and honored at a reception following the ceremony.

Boyd Dohrmann served as a volunteer in many ways. Boyd was the 4-H Sheep Project Leader for 30 years, a 4-H Club Leader of the Marion Jr. Farmers for 10 years, leader of the County Senior 4-Hâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ers, (a county program for high school age members to get acquainted and socialize) for 5 years, as well as serving on the County 4-H Youth Committee and County Extension Council.

When asked why he volunteered so much of his time to the 4-H program, he replied, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I simply enjoyed working with the kids.â&#x20AC;? Some of Boydâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fondest memories as a sheep project leader were working at the Franklin County Fair Sheep Show. He has seen changes in frame size and muscling of show lambs over the years, but Boyd also commented on the changes he witnessed in 4-Hâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ers too. â&#x20AC;&#x153;4-Hâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ers seemed to have become more independent and self-conÂżGHQW ´ VD\V %R\G Âł, IHHO WKDW EHORQJLQJ WR + DQG JURZLQJ XS RQ D IDUP LV part of why our children have grown to be successful adults.â&#x20AC;?

A nine year member of the Franklin County Hamilton Go Getters 4-H club himself, Boyd said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt that as a volunteer, I was â&#x20AC;&#x153;giving backâ&#x20AC;? to the 4-H program that mentored me as a member.â&#x20AC;? As a 4-H member, Boyd raised and exhibited sheep and beef cattle at the county and state fairs. He was a member RI WKH FRXQW\ OLYHVWRFN MXGJLQJ WHDP WKDW ZRQ ÂżUVW SODFH DW WKH VWDWH FRQWHVW which earned their team a trip to the national contest where they placed second. Boyd also won trips to the National 4-H Club Congress and National Safety Congress as a youth.

His 4-H experiences led him to become a farmer in Franklin County where he raised and showed purebred sheep at the Iowa State Fair for 50 years! Boyd and his wife, Irene, have many memories of staying at the Youth Inn during the state fair with family, as well as judging sheep shows at many county, district and state fairs across the Midwest.

Counties select inductees for their exceptional work in contributing to the lives of 4-H members and the overall 4-H program, said Jackie Dohlman, Franklin County Extension and Outreach Youth Coordinator. Many inductees served as club leaders, youth mentors, fair superintendents or fair board members, Iowa State University Extension county council members, county \RXWK FRXQFLO PHPEHUV IDLU MXGJHV ÂżQDQFLDO VXSSRUWHUV FKDSHURQHV RU ,68 Extension and Outreach staff members. The inductees have demonstrated dedication, encouragement, commitment and guidance to Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 4-Hâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ers through the years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is a wonderful opportunity for the counties and state to recognize and celebrate 4-H volunteers and staff who have shown outstanding service and dedication to Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 4-H program,â&#x20AC;? said Chris Gleason, 4-H youth program specialist with ISU Extension and Outreach.

The Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame was initiated in 2002 to help commemorate the 100th anniversary of 4-H. A display of previous honorees was available for viewing at the 2013 Iowa State Fair in the 4-H Exhibits Building.

Information about 2013 inductees and previous inductees to the Iowa 4-H Hall of Fame is available on the Iowa 4-H Foundation website, organized by year and by county. Go to http://www.iowa4hfoundation.org/ and select â&#x20AC;&#x153;Recognition.â&#x20AC;?

Marie Teggatz and Diane Borcherding were St. Paulâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s workers. Pastor Travis Berg shared a bit of the question as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who is your neighbor?â&#x20AC;? He gave us the Good Samaritan story followed by prayer.

Then Phyllis took us â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;South of the Borderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; with her chicken enchiladas, refried beans, creamed rice, tortilla chips and plenty of salsa. This was another of Phyllisâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; surprise meals â&#x20AC;&#x201C; very good, too.
