Supervisors consider development matters

By Ken Ross Graphic-Advocate Editor Two issues regarding properties at Twin Lakes came before the Calhoun County Board of Supervisors on Oct. 22.

Calhoun County Engineer Ron Haden presented a request from the owner of a restaurant at Twin Lakes that the county sell right of way adjacent to a parking area on the property. Haden said he has heard rumors that the restaurant property will be used to build condominiums.

He doesn’t know whether the current building would be demolished if that action was taken.

Haden suggested that the request be turned down out of the general principle that the county should not give up right of way. There was no action on the matter by the supervisors and no objections to Haden’s intent to inform the property owner that the right of way would

not be sold. He indicated that there would be sufficient area for future construction on the lot.

A property owner asked the supervisors about a lot he owns across the road from his residential property at Twin Lakes.

The property owner had no

immediate plans to develop the vacant lot across the road from his residential property but it currently doesn’t meet the minimum 10,000 square feet necessary to put a building on the property.

By Ken Ross Graphic-Advocate Editor At the Oct. 21 joint meeting of the Rockwell City/Lytton and Southern Cal school boards, the South Central Calhoun sharing partners’ enrollment figures for the 2013/14 school year were presented.

Shared Superintendent Jeff Kruse informed the boards that the combined enrollment had a sharper than anticipated decline over the previous two years, 25 last year and 30 this year.

RCL, with 459, had slightly more students than SCal, with 452.

This has a practical impact since the district with the higher enrollment becomes the controlling district as far as the master contract for teaching staff. RCL has a lower base pay for beginning teachers but continues providing longevity steps beyond what is provided by SCal, so the more senior staff receive higher compensation from the RCL contract.

By Ken Ross Graphic-Advocate Editor On the Tuesday, Nov. 5, ballots, the towns of Rockwell City, Lake City and Lohrville have new names on for city council, but only Rockwell City has a contested council seat. Both incumbents John Hepp and David Dawson, as well as a challenger, Ryan Hildreth, are running for the two council seats up for election this year.

All seats for the five-member council are at-large positions and all are for four-year terms. The two candidates with the highest number of votes will win the election.

Rockwell City Mayor Phil Heinlen is running unopposed for reelection.

From 2005 until 2009, I was employed by Vermeer Corporation in Pella. My first position was technical writing, specializing in service manuals on a wide range of Vermeer agricultural and construction machinery. Secondly, I held the position of Solutions Specialist, where I accomplished duties ranging from production forecasting to field sales.

Education: Rockwell City-Lytton High School, Class of 2001; Simpson College, Class of 2005 (Bachelor of Arts, History); Embry Riddle Aeronautical University, presently working on obtaining my Master’s Degree in Aeronautical Science.

Family: I have been married to my wife Sandra for four and a half years. We have two daughters; Kathleen will be 3 in January and Quinn turns 1 in December.

Other interests you’d care to mention: I enjoy golf, and am starting the third and final year of my term on the Twin Lakes Golf Club Board of Directors. I also enjoy running and have completed three halfmarathons. I hope to complete a full marathon in the next year.

I am an Iowa High School Athletic Association certified official. I spend the fall officiating varsity and subvarsity level football, as well as volunteering as an official at the fifth and sixth grade level for the South Central Calhoun team. In the winter, I enjoy officiating varsity and subvarsity level wrestling.

What are the major issues you see facing Rockwell City: My top priority as a councilman is to work to make Rockwell City a place where people will want to come to do business. In my opinion, this starts with our town square. I can remember growing up when downtown was crowded on a daily basis, with people gathering to obtain the daily essentials. In my childhood years, I spent many summer afternoons enjoying an ice cream treat at Huff Drug; shopping at Cooper Hardware or Coast to Coast with my grandfather; and visiting my grandmother as she worked at the REC building on the square. Today, all of those businesses have either moved or are no longer in business.

It’s hard to deny that our square is in disrepair. Recently, buildings have been torn down, with seemingly no plan for the future or thought

put into what the collateral damage would be in the de-construction process. While something needed to be done, the action taken ended up senselessly costing the community.

My goal is to work with the revitalization committee, as well as like-minded members of the community to formulate a plan going forward with measurable goals. We need a one-year, fiveyear, ten-year, and 20-year plan with distinct goals that are measurable and attainable. I will vigorously work toward obtaining grants, securing donations, and seeking out potential entrepreneurs to grow our downtown.

Our square is not dead, but we owe it to our children and grandchildren to bring it back to what it once was.

We can build this foundation around the great businesses that presently surround our Court House.

Why do you wish to serve on the city council: As a fifth-generation resident (great-great grandparents James & Carrie, great-grandparents Ben & Lillian, grandparents Martin & Kathy, parents Tom & Theresa) of our great city, I feel indebted to the entire community for the wonderful childhood I was fortunate to have in Rockwell City. I want my daughters to have the same luxuries and pride in their community that I have. I would be humbled and honored to be voted into a position where I could work to give back to the entire community.

Phil R. Heinlen Occupation: Iowa Department of Transportation Highway Maintenance Supervisor, 34+ years with D.O.T. Other work background

13 years as Mayor.

Family: Wife – Jane; Daughter - Krista and her husband, Heath Upson-grandchildren, Ellie, Brody and Kolbe; Son - Steven Other interests: family, family, family, fan of college athletics, fan of NASCAR racing What are the major issues you see facing Rockwell City: Most issues we face are laced with fiscal concerns. We will need to continue to be cognizant of our aging infrastructure, whether that be water/wastewater infrastructure, streets, city buildings, etc. We will focus on prioritizing those known needs and work to rectify them. It would be popular to mention our need to pursue/lure prospective companies/businesses to our community; therefore, creating new jobs. However, over the past several years, we have followed up on a number of development possibilities. We will continue to pursue such leads. However, this is a tough game for many reasons.

We will strive to provide the needed essential services, provide a safe, friendly community for our citizens, and continue to plan and prioritize our future fiscal programs.

Why do you wish to serve as mayor: I continue to have the desire to serve as Mayor of Rockwell City for the same reasons I first ran for City Council back in the late 1990s. Having been born and raised

in Rockwell City, it has been an honor to serve the citizens of this community and I would appreciate the opportunity to continue in that capacity. Thank you.

John Hepp Occupation: Parts Department Manager for Champion Chrysler Center Other work background: City Council – 13 years; ICCC Auto Tech Instructor – 4 years; self-employed auto repair – 16 years; farmed - 8 years; RC Fire Department - 28 years Education: Cedar Valley High School class of 1975, various college classes at ICCC, DMACC and WIT for Automotive Technology and Firefighting.

Other interests: I’m interested in church, family, fire department, Rotary, classic cars What are the major issues you see facing Rockwell City: Getting our sewers repaired before repairs are mandated by DNR, including treatment plant upgrades.

Also repair/replacement of city streets is ongoing and progressing.

Why do you wish to serve on the city council: Serving on the council means making common sense, fiscally responsible decisions based on what the people want and need and keeping within our budget. I think our council has worked together in doing that in the past and I look forward to doing that in the future.

Technologies Other work background 8+ years (elected two terms) Rockwell City council. 24 years as a volunteer firefighter (Rockwell City) Education: Rockwell City High School, Iowa Central Community College, Iowa State University Family: Happily married to Jill McGinty Dawson for 23 years Other interests you’d care to mention: I enjoy travel, nature, education and problem solving. I am also an automobile enthusiast, audiophile and Eagle Scout.

What are the major issues you see facing Rockwell City: We need to create a roadmap for an economically sustainable city by planning for and maintaining the city’s infrastructures including streets, utilities, and public safety, all while following any applicable regulations. Even though we have a good start, we need to develop our business and industry to promote growth of our community. Along with that, we need to make our city an attractive and inviting place that makes people want to stay in or move to Rockwell City.

Why do you wish to serve on the city council: Rockwell City has always been my home and I would like to continue to give back some of what this community has given to me. I can offer over 20 years of experience as a manager in both the private and public sector.

participate.

Young adults tend not to think about the possibility of catastrophic injury or illness and usually lack sufficient assets to make bankruptcy a major concern.

Any type of private sector insurance involves pooling of risk, subsidizing those who need help with revenue from those who are more fortunate. Life insurance serves as an annuity with an added benefit of payment beyond any accrued cash value in the case of an unexpectedly early death. Auto and property insurance pay when an unexpected accident occurs.

However, insurance policies contain provisions to limit risk to insurance companies. An elderly person or a terminally ill person cannot start a life insurance policy in the same way a healthy young person can. People with histories of unsafe or unlawful driving habits will pay high-risk rates.

In the case of elderly people and people with pre-existing medical conditions, private sector health coverage doesn’t make financial sense for the insurance company.

The present system is for the government to insure the elderly and the poor through Medicare and Medicaid. Wealthy people are able to take care of their own medical needs and some of the rest have health insurance coverage through their employers.

Butch surveys one of two floods in 2013 would enter through the side door, all sweaty and stinky in my jogging shorts, get a glass of water, and use the restroom. Wide-eyed customers stared. I would usually get asked, “Let me get this straight—you RAN from Mt. Pleasant?” “Yep,” I would say, then take off and jog the River Road, up “Heart-Attack Hill,” back to Mt. Pleasant. It took perseverance to run that hill, just like Butch and his restaurant.

When the water rises on the Skunk River at Oakland Mills, it is a local attraction. Old timers speculate on when the river will crest. (Butch,

because his business depends on it, seems to be the best prognosticator.)

Bow-fisher people line the banks in droves, shooting at ripples in the water, which may or may not be a carp, spoonbill, or water snake.

One thing I admire about Butch Bittle (besides his cook’n) is that he and the River Rock Cafe have survived numerous floods of the Skunk River. Flood water has actually flowed right through his cafe.

Butch points to a spot in front of the cash register, “The carp were jump’n right there!” Catastrophes such as this would finish most restaurateurs.

Not Butch. When the water is rising, he packs his equipment out, ties down the propane tank, and waits’r out. When the water goes down, he disinfects the building, rebuilds the driveway, and opens’r back up.

Butch is a survivor.

In a way, we (all of Butch’s clientele) feel a personal relationship to Butch and his family and the employees of the cafe. From the people who help him pack the equipment out when the water rises, and the people who nominated him for the best tenderloin award, and the people who are waiting to eat when water goes back down, we are all part of the story. A new sign might read, “It Rocks @ the River Rock Cafe.”

in health coverage, not old enough nor poor enough to qualify for government assistance and not wealthy enough to protect themselves from catastrophic medical expense.

The current situation for these people is that non-emergency procedures are not performed and medication that is not immediately vital is not taken. The hospital emergency room becomes the primary source of health care.

When illness or injury does strike, any savings the uninsured person has is wiped out and what can’t be paid for by the patient is picked up by the hospital, sometimes operated as part of county or municipal government.

Most people don’t think the current situation is acceptable.

Personally, I believe that some form of single-payer plan is needed not only to ease the potential hardship for individuals and families but also to restore predictable stability for businesses that provide health coverage to employees.

There may be a few people who are sincerely opposed to all government involvement in medical care. They should identify elimination of such government involvement as their goal. Otherwise they should offer an alternative.

The public is growing impatient with the nihilistic, anti-government yearnings of people who don’t articulate any vision and who lack the courage of whatever convictions they may have.

Congratulations to Butch Bittle and his family and his employees on receiving the coveted Best Tenderloin of the Year award by the Iowa Pork Producers. It could be said that winning this award is the Nobel Prize of tenderloins.

I’ve been going to this establishment since I moved back to Iowa in 1995. (There were two owners before Butch.) It was called The Store, or people would just say, “We went to Oakland Mills to eat.” Everyone knew what they meant. Situated on the Skunk river, within spit’n distance of an old hydroelectric spillway, a quaint sign on the side of the building stated simply, “Best tenderloin by a dam site!” You couldn’t help but smile when you read that.

I had just moved to Mt. Pleasant and was working second shift in a machine shop. I met an old fella who offered to take me to breakfast. He said that about the only place to get a “real breakfast” was The Store. So we went. It was spring, and it was so humid, it felt (and sounded) like the screen door to The Store was alive with algae. It probably was. But one step inside—the aroma of coffee, the friendliness of the owner and clientele, and crispness of the hash browns—I was hooked. I’ve been going ever since. Now known as the River Rock Cafe, whenever I have company, a “must stop” is always Oakland Mills. (People still say, “Let’s take’m to Oakland Mills.”) It has great homemade pie, too!

A few years ago, when I was a little younger (and crazier), on Sunday morning, when I went for my “long jog,” I would run from Mt. Pleasant to Oakland Mills and back. Something over ten miles, I called it my “half-marathon distance.” Oakland Mills and The Store was about halfway. I would run up to the kitchen window and tap. Whoever was cook’n would just shake their head and wave me in. I

Empty Nest By Curt Swarm

The media have been reporting terrible problems with websites designed for enrollment in insurance exchanges established under the Affordable Care Act. Supporters of the program known as Obamacare speak with confidence that the computer glitches will get worked out, although they are growingly nervous that full implementation will need delayed beyond the present target of March.

Opponents regard the technical problems as symptomatic of a poorly thought out federal program.

Their worst fear is that the program works just well enough to drag the country into a long-term health care morass from which the country cannot extract itself.

The administration is trying to maintain an optimistic outlook to encourage young healthy people to participate in the insurance exchanges. Part of this encouragement involves telling the young healthy people that their participation is essential for the viability of the program.

Is there anybody other than politicians and pundits who can’t see the flaw in this supposed enticement?

There are financial penalties for non-participation by the targeted demographic (healthy, young adults, not poor but not rich, and not insured through an employer). Apparently the penalties are not sufficient to generate enough revenue to make the system viable nor to ensure that all the targeted young people will

Mammogram Saves Life of Lake View Resident

County earns safety recognition

Iowa Municipal Worker Compensation Association Loss Control Representative Ed Morrison, (bottom, right) presented Calhoun County workers with a plaque recognizing the county for its safe practices, He noted that the county has the lowest mod rate of any county he works with.

The mod rate is a multiplier used to base the counties workman’s compensation rate wit 1.0 being standard, with any lower number creating a lower than standard rate and a higher number creating a higher than standard rate. Calhoun County’s rate has just gone from 0.78 to 0.74. The mod rate is determined by a combination of claims history, reporting practices and safety training. “This not only means cost savings to the county, it means that employees are going home in one piece,” Morrison said. (Graphic-Advocate photo by Ken Ross)

Contributed by SMCH The importance of scheduling a routine mammogram every year after a woman’s fortieth birthday took on new significance to Lake View resident Mona Pugh in 2000.

“I had been having mammograms regularly. That year I received a call from the radiology department to let me know the exam found a suspicious pea-sized mass close to the chest wall in my left breast. A self breast exam wouldn’t have detected it.” Soon after the mammogram, a biopsy determined the mass was cancerous.

Together with her husband of 56 years, Kenneth, and their four children, Mona decided to have a mastectomy. Dr. Yotin Keonin performed the surgery and successfully removed the cancer. No radiation therapy or chemotherapy was required.

Mona spoke about the great amount of support she received at the time, most notably from her husband Kenneth and the rest of her family. However, she pointed out that being told you have cancer isn’t like it is on TV, cold and clinical.

“Everyone was supportive. Shortly after my surgery, two women came to my room and spoke with me about breast cancer support.”

She credits her faith with helping

Mary Reiter, Radiology department manager at Stewart Memorial Community Hospital, and Mona Pugh, two-time cancer survivor, stand next to the mammography machine that helped detect a life-threatening lump in Mona’s breast in 2000. her through that difficult time, “You need your faith. I knew God was there and He took care of it.”

During a self breast exam in 2008, Mona detected another lump, which when removed, was found to be cancerous as well. She then opted for radiation. Her advice is: “Check your body. Know when differences occur. Don’t wait to get yourself

checked.”

Digital mammograms are done Monday through Friday and no referral is necessary. Simply call 712-464-4207 to make an appointment. Extended hours are offered for convenient appointment times from 8:00 am to 8 p.m. each weekday.

This week’s Crossword and Sudoku puzzles

ADAZA

Adaza Thursday Club will meet at 1:30 p.m. Thursday November 7th at Marilyn Parker’s.

Martha Hennesy of Andover, MN, visited her mother, Liz Guess Oct 18 – 20.

Teresa (Rossmanth) Gross of Fort Dodge and Barbara Winkelman, Adaza, went to Perry on the 17th and met Mary Ann (Rossmanith) Graves and her daughter, Annette Menz for lunch. Mary Ann, Teresa and Barbara also visited Lloyd Winkelman at the Rowley Masonic Home.

Anna Gingery of Eldridge was

at Bob and Karen Gingery’s last Thursday and Friday, Oct. 17-18. She came for the visitation and funeral of an acquaintance in Rockwell City.

Barbara Winkelman had lunch with the retirees of UAW Local #1540 at the Ralston cafe on the 18th. She went on to Carroll to visit Maxine Hanneman and her houseguests, a son and family members here from South Carolina.

Anyone having an item for Adaza news may contact Pat Schmitt at 515-389-3737.

On Saturday, Oct. 19 at the Big Lounge in Sunnyview, Louise Mapes was honored with a family dinner for her 95th birthday. It was hosted by her daughter, Toni Kerns of Rockwell City, and her son, Lee Mapes of Nashville, Tenn.

Attending were Earl & Keri McAlexander of Rockwell City and Brittany and Jacy, and Dr. Jeff Miller & Elizabeth from Wisconsin with their daughters Vivi and twins Lucy and Lilly.

Following the dinner was an open house from 2 to 4 p.m. with residents of Sunnyview attending and relatives from Boone, Mallard, Lohrville and Nebraska. On Sunday morning, the family went to church together at the Lohrville Methodist Church.

Happy birthday, Louise! Thank you for sharing your flowers from your granddaughter in Virginia – they were a lovely addition to the Sunnyview dining room.

Meanwhile, perhaps on the same day as Louise’s party, about 32 assorted squashes appeared in the Sunnyview dining room. They are brightening the dining room tables.

Each squash is creatively decorated with paint, etc. We don’t recognize all the interesting varieties – there are pumpkins and maybe even some gourds. Perhaps they are disguised for Halloween? According to a reliable source (the parent of one of the artists), the squashes were painted by the local Boy Scouts of America. Thank you!

Remember, we are coming up on

the time change for Daylight Savings, which happens on November 3rd.

Prepare to “fall back” an hour. It may take a few days for some of us to get used to it. Do all the states follow the Daylight Savings time schedule? According to the website www.timeanddate.com/time/us/ indiana-time.html, Indiana has a long history of debate over Daylight Savings time. It follows the schedule now, with two corners of the state in central time and most of the state in eastern time.

Another state to consider is Arizona. According to www. timeanddate.com/time/us/ arizona-no-dst.html, most parts of Arizona, except the Navajo Nation community, observe Mountain Standard Time (MST) all year long with no change for Daylight Savings time. The site says there are other states and territories that do not observe the Daylight Savings time schedule. These are Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, and the Virgin Islands.

Now and then we hear of some strange headlines in the newspapers.

For instance, “Farmer Bill Dies in House” sounds rather sad, and “Squad Helps Dog Bite Victim” raises some questions. Then, if you weren’t already alarmed to read that “Enraged cow injures farmer with tractor,” you would surely wonder when you heard that “Red tape holds up new bridge.”

Happy Halloween!

OCTOBER 30, 2013

LOHRVILLE

My Thought for the week is: There are few, if any jobs in which ability alone is sufficient. Needed also are loyalty, sincerity, enthusiasm and cooperation.

The Trivia Question is: What are the five largest natural lakes in Iowa?

We have a big Thank You to Gene Gymer for all of the apples that he has brought to the Library. They were wonderful.

The After School Kids Book Club is nearing the end but other things are in the planning stage for the JJ Hands Library in Lohrville. One is a one-on-one reading program and the Lady Audry All Stars. Call the Library for more info. The Harvest Party was a success. Thanks to all who helped.

The annual Thanksgiving Pot Luck by the United Methodist Women was held on Thursday at the home of Bette Knapp with six members enjoying a very nice meal. President Toni Kerns welcomed every by reading from the Prayer Calendar about older people in nursing homes. A letter from Bidwell Riverside in Des Moines was read. They sent money for two gift cards for the needy at Christmas.

Toni read am article in the Ft Dodge paper about the Romas (descended from the gypsies) and the problems they have in Europe with how people treat them.

The Cookie Walk will be held the 7th of December at the Church. Coffee and rolls will also

be served. The program planning meeting will held at the Church at 5:30 on November the 11th. Spritual Growth Chairperson Bette Knapp reported a communication from a missionary that a birthday card that was sent to her had been received and appreciated. Bette also had each one sign a card for another Missionary in Sri Lanka.

Jeri Woodward read from Matthew Chapter 20 -1 to 16 and gave the program on “Seeing Grace in the People we work with.” She gave a prayer in closing On Sunday, my grandson and his fiancee attended the Bridle Show in Ft Dodge and were interviewed by the Ft Dodge Messenger.

On Saturday, Dorothy Siemann and Bette attended the Craft Show in Farnhamville and had lunch with friends. On Thursday, The Birthday Club met at The Pizza Ranch to celebrate the birthdays. Those able to attend were Florine Irwin, Twin Lakes; Toni Kerns, RC; Bette and one other member. A nice time was had remembering old friends and places.

The answer to the Trivia Question is East Okoboji and West Okoboji, Storm Lake, Clear Lake and Spirit Lake. Hum why wasn’t Twin Lake one of them? Only kidding!!

Well, until next week, have a good one and enjoy the fall colors.

Anyone having an item for Lohrville news may contact Bette Knapp at 712-465-3295.

Another week has seemed to fly by. Which means we are inching closer and closer to the holiday season, shoot we have already have had snow too! Some of you may have heard, thanks to Glenny Smith for passing the word, that we are having a raffle. We have a lovely basket filled with all sorts of nice things that we are raffling off. This is a fundraiser to buy a gift for every resident for our Christmas party in December. We have been blessed to have department heads that donated all the raffle items. We have almost reached our goal already. If you

would like to buy a raffle ticket they are $2 for one or 3 for $5. I can tell you that there is over $60 worth of goodies in the basket. Drawing to be held November 1, 2013. We plan to have one more raffle for November as well. I make homemade rugs and I will be donating a rug to be raffled off. I love being able to do things for our residents all year round, but it’s so special to treat them at the holidays too! That has to be the best part of my job.

This week we also took a trip down memory lane. I think we could sit for hours and reminisce about life when we were young. We talked about how naughty some of us have been by outhouse tipping. Memories of our grandparents, favorite things we remembered about our holidays, and heating bricks to warm our feet at night in the cold winters. Our residents have the greatest stories to tell.

Big thank you to Patty Walters for you wonderful donations! Patty brings us trinkets for bingo and the ladies love them. Thanks Patty for always thinking of us. This week we also celebrate Dawn Winterboer’s service anniversary. Dawn started working at Sunny Knoll in 2009 as a CNA and has since become an LPN and is working on her RN. Dawn enjoys the bonds and special relationships she has with the residents and staff. Dawn lives with her roommate Caris and their dogs and cats. When Dawn is not busy with school work and work she enjoys spending time with her boyfriend Steven and her favorite person Jennifer. Stop and see Dawn she is one of the people that is making Sunny Knoll great!

SHADY OAKS

Here’s How It Works: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box.

You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Shady Oaks held their Annual Parade of Costumes in conjunction with Stewart Memorial Community Hospital’s Annual Fall Fest Thursday, October 24th. Residents, both in and out of costume, lined the hallways to hand out candy and see all the costumes. When asked what her favorite costume was, Elma Green said, “They were all so cute, the little skunk was my favorite!”

Rockwell City gets big check

Rockwell City Clerk Kelly Smidt recently announced that the city received a check for $108,404.54 for road use funds to compensate for the undercounting of Rockwell City in the 2010 U.S. Census.

The state legislature made the adjustment after it was established that the North Central Correctional Facility was omitted from the census count. The legislature-adjusted population for Rockwell City will be used to figure future road use funds until the 2020 census.

In other business, the city has hired two police officers pending administration of required testing.

They are both state certified but there are tests that still need to be taken before being officially put on duty.

Look for further details about the new police officers in an upcoming issue of the Graphic-Advocate.

Rockwell City has established Oct. 31 as beggar’s night from 5 to 7 p.m.

Village Square presents Bingo Bingo is a splashy, zippy, fun new musical about a group of die-hard bingo players who stop at nothing to miss their weekly game. In between the number calling, strange rituals and fierce competitions, love blossoms and long lost friends reunite. These lovable characters spring to life with a smart, funny script and bouncy, hummable score.

Audiences will be laughing in the aisles when they aren’t playing games of bingo along with the cast!

Best friends and Bingo pals Vern, Honey and Patsy brave a terrible storm in order to attend the yearly celebration of the birth of Bingo and tribute to its founder, Edwin S. Lowe. As the storm knocks out power at the Bingo Hall, Patsy and Honey remind each other of the ominous night fifteen years ago that began in the same way.

In flashback, Honey tells us about the night Vern and her best friend, Bernice, had their falling out.

Bernice’s sweet, yet headstrong daughter, Alison, enters the Bingo hall in disguise - Bernice’s health is failing, and Alison is determined, with the help of Bingo, to reunite her mother with her long-lost best friend.

Matching funds up to $1,000 provided by Vetter Health Services

The decline in enrollment was a factor in discussion of both a potential early retirement incentive and a potential voter-approved Physical Plant and Equipment Levy (PPEL). A referendum can add up to $1.34 per $1,000 taxable valuation to the 33 cents established by board action.

Regarding the potential for early retirement incentives, Kruse said, “We don’t want to have to take drastic actions three years from now.”

Early retirement is a way to both reduce staff and reduce the average teacher cost.

Such an incentive, whether from extended insurance or a one-time cash payment, is among the limited expenses for which the school district can use a management levy, adjustable to generate the needed revenue. Other management levy expenses include employer contributions toward employee insurance and payroll taxes.

The school board members authorized staff polling to determine whether insurance or a cash payment is preferred as an early retirement incentive.

The PPEL is a means for paying for infrastructure, vehicles, technology and other equipment. The one-cent sales tax for education is also used for these purposes. The state is in the latter stages of phasing out the distribution of revenue from sales tax for education from distributing it based on where it is collected to distributing it evenly throughout the state on a per-pupil basis.

The general operating budget is determined by state-established formula as a combination of property tax and state aid to raise a consistent per-pupil amount.

Kruse noted that most of the general operating budget is used for salaries and the 33-cent PPEL is currently used for transportation.

He added there are many needs for infrastructure and equipment that the $1.34 would help fund. This additional levy would generate about $250,000 per year.

A state income tax surtax can be substituted for part or all of the voter approved PPEL property tax levy but the combination cannot bring in more revenue than the calculated revenue derived from the $1.34 rate.

Most of the board members indicated that it is too soon after approval of consolidation to put a tax referendum on the ballot.

Roscoe Simpson of the RCL and SCC boards cautioned against a delay in dealing with the school system’s needs, “This is not a pie in the sky wish list. They are things that need doing and we could just cause bigger problems by putting them off.”

FFA participates in homecoming

The SCC FFA participated in the 2013 homecoming coronation and skit night. They based their skit off of a “little ditty” Mr. Lantz made up about the events that happened at the Iowa State Fair last summer. The butter cow skit was performed with over 55 FFA members participating.

Royalty was crowned and Jake Petzenhauser and Ashley Henkenius were named the 2013 Homecoming King and Queen. The FFA would like to thank everyone who came and supported the SCC Titans on their victory over the Forest City Indians.

SUPERVISORS continued from page 1

There are properties at Twin Lakes that do not meet that requirement but they were developed prior to the current zoning ordinance, so the buildings are lawful even new replacement buildings on those properties.

There is 1,100 square feet of ground that the county purchased right of way on, adjacent to an intersection that the county wants to keep clear of visual obstructions.

The county does not own this piece of ground but has a permanent easement that prevents building on that 1,100 square feet.

The property owner asked whether the county would be interested in giving up that 1,100 square feet in order that the property meet the 10,000 square feet minimum required for building.

Haden explained that the county does not actually own this piece of property, just a permanent easement.

He did not know for sure who had underlying title, perhaps the estate of the developer of lots at that location.

Haden said that no matter who has title to the property, he would oppose vacating the right of way.

The question was asked about the legal effect of the property owner getting possession of the underlying property, making the lot more than 10,000 square feet. Does the easement on the property prevent the lot from being considered 10,000 square feet as required by the zoning ordinance for development even if the development does not intrude upon the easement?

“Sounds like a county attorney decision to me,” Keith Roos, county zoning commissioner, told the supervisors.

Sports Titans end regular football season with a win 12 The Graphic-Advocate

By Doug Dornath It was yet another dramatic victory for the South Central Calhoun varsity football team last Friday night in Wall Lake. The Titans senior quarterback Jake Petzenhauser scored the winning touchdown on a 12-yard touchdown scramble with eight seconds remaining in regulation and the Titans added the two-point conversion on a Derrick Henkenius run to escape with a 27-21 victory over rival East Sac County as SCC heads into post-season play this week as the No. 2 seed from Class 2A, District 2.

With the win, the Titans wrapped up the regular season with a 5-4 record overall and posted a 5-1 record in Class 2A, District 2 play for second place in the standings.

SCC is scheduled to host a first round Class 2A playoff game against the No. 3 seed from Class 2A, District 1 — Central Lyon/GeorgeLittle Rock (6-3) Wednesday, Oct. 30, at 7 p.m. in Lake City.

The second round of the playoffs is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 4, and the winner of the SCC versus CL/GLR contest will face the winner of the Forest City (4-5) at Sioux Center (7-2) winner at a site to be determined.

“What a way to finish the regular season,” said SCC head varsity football coach Bryan Case of the Titans win over ESC. “We were two evenly matched teams, and we just happened to come out on top. East

Sac County has a very good football team and they’re very well coached.

“They’ve been in every game this season and have lost some heartbreakers, but at the same time, were extremely happy to walk out of Wall Lake tonight, as the victors,” added Case. “Our kids showed their resiliency and just found a way to win. This should give us a big boost, heading into the first round of the state playoffs. We know we’ll be in for another battle, but were looking forward to the opportunity on Wednesday.”

The Titans got on the scoreboard first in this one as Jeff King recovered a Titan fumble in the end zone with 6:02 left in the quarter to put the Titans up 6-0 as the PAT kick failed.

East Sac County would answer with a late first quarter touchdown on a one-yard run and the Raiders added the PAT kick to go up 7-6 heading into the second period.

The Raiders made it 14-6 with a couple of minutes left in the second period on an 11-yard touchdown pass and a made PAT kick to go into the half with the lead.

In the third period, the Titans cut the deficit to 14-12 as Petzenhauser connected with Kaden Kelly for a 7-yard score with 8:24 remaining in the third. The Titans try for the twopoint conversion pass failed however and the Raiders held the two-point advantage on the scoreboard.

A couple of minutes later, the

Raiders completed a drive with a 13yard touchdown reception and added the PAT kick to go up 21-12 to end the scoring in the third period.

In the fourth quarter, the Titans responded early with a 38-yard touchdown pass from Petzenhauser to Jace Neubaum with 11:32 remaining in the contest. After Petzenhauser booted through the PAT kick, ESC’s lead was trimmed to two points a 21-19.

East Sac County last scoring chance came with under five minutes to go in regulation, but the Raiders attempt at a field goal to put themselves up by five points failed.

From there, the Titans drove the field 85 yards for the eventual gamewinning score.

For the game, Petzenhauser finished 10-for-15 passing with 169 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. He added five carries for seven yards and a touchdown on the ground.

Teammate Jeff King led the Titans in rushing with 74 yards on 15 carries and a score while Henkenius had eight carries for 56 yards.

Neubaum led the Titans in receptions with three for 56 yards and one touchdown while Cyle King had two catches for 47 yards and Kelly finished with two receptions for 24 yards and a score.

Defensively, Rylan Richardson led the Titans with 18 total tackles while Petzenhauser and Dontay Bass each added eight apiece in the win.
