OGDEN, IOWA 50212 - WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 22, 2014

Democrats hold caucuses Tuesday night, Jan. 21, Leonard A. Good Library Boone County Democrats invite you to join in celebrating Democracy by participating in Iowa’s first in the nation caucuses Tuesday, Jan. 21, 2014.

“2014 promises to be a great year for the Democratic Party with Congressman Bruce Braley and Jim Mowrer at the top of the ticket,” says Georgia Robertson, Boone County Chair of the Democratic Central Committee. “We have much to accomplish between now and this election in November.”

“Democratic Precinct caucuses are the grass roots of politics, the path to getting involved, meeting “like-minded people” and being the change you wish to make in the world.”

To kick off the caucus, Boone County Democrats are hosting a pizza party. Registration and pizza party begin at 5:30 p.m. The caucus convenes at 7 p.m.

The majority of the caucus will be conducted in joint session with

participants offering resolutions, addressing important issues that eventually become a part of the party platform. The platform, in turn, helps the party set priorities for further action. Each precinct or neighborhood then breaks into a separate group to elect representatives to the county central committee for the next two years.

Democratic precinct caususes for Boone County are being held at three locations.

Ogden, Berkley, Boxholm Pilot Mound and Fraser voters (Ogden Precinct plus Rural Precincts 3, 4 and 5) Leonard A. Good Community Library Conference Room in

Ogden Madrid and Luther voters (Madrid Precincts 1, 2 and 3 plus Rural Precincts 1 and 2) Madrid Public Library 100 W 3rd Street, Madrid Boone voters (Boone Precincts 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, plus Rural Precinct 6) Franklin Elementary School 1903 Crawford Street In each city there will be a “meeting of the whole”. Attendees then split into individual precincts for their meetings.

Each precinct will elect delegates and alternates to the County Convention and elect representatives to

Three students chosen for sixth grade honor band Ogden band instructor Liz Studer accompanied three students to Saint Francis of Assisi School in Des Moines, site of the 2nd Annual sixth Grade Metro Honor Band. Sixth graders Hannah Dutcher (flute), Sam Christensen (tenor sax) and Ryan Nichols (percussion) spent Tuesday afternoon, Jan. 14 rehearsing their pieces with 82 other students from 28 schools in the Des Moines area.

Norwalk Middle School sixth through eighth grade band instructor Jeff Heltman was their conductor for the day.

“The students enjoyed Mr. Heltman’s good sense of humor and details when describing how he wanted them to perform their pieces,” commented Studer.

The concert that evening was made up of four pieces, Bits and Pieces, Quintus, Uskudar and Valiance.

the Platform Committee and other committees. The caucus will elect precinct committee members to the Central Committee and adopt resolutions to be submitted for the county platform. It is an opportunity to present your position on issues.

The caucuses are open to everyone, but to participate you must be a registered Democrat.

Materials will be available to register to vote or to change party affiliation that evening.

The Boone County Democratic Party Convention will be held Saturday, March 8 at the Boone County Historical Center, 602 Story Street, in Boone, beginning at 9 a.m.

The Iowa Democratic Party District 4 Convention is scheduled for Saturday, April 26 at Storm Lake. The state party convention will take place Saturday, June 21 in Des Moines (location yet to be determined).

Local students graduate from Iowa State Winter commencement ceremonies were held at Iowa State University following the 2013 fall semester. Receiving degrees from the Ogden area were: Caleb Jens, Bachelor of Science, Construction Engineering; Tyler Johnson, Bachelor of Arts, Advertising; Skyler Rinker, Bachelor of Science, Agricultural Studies; Caitlyn Van Hemert, Bachelor of Science, Accounting; Brooke Lingren (Perry), Bachelor of Science, Financial Counseling and Planning.

Camille Sloan Schroeder was awarded a Master of Education degree.

Coach Smith joins an elite group Dick Smith has coached the Bulldog baseball team the past 33 years.

Family and friends celebrated with him last year when he reached the milestone of 500 wins.

He made his family proud once again when he was recently inducted into the Iowa High School Baseball Coaches Hall of Fame as part of the Class of 2014. Smith was one of five inductees recognized at an Awards Banquet Saturday, Jan. 18, 2014 in Cedar Rapids.

Joining Smith in the Hall of Fame this year are Bret Hoyer (coach), Cedar Rapids; Ed Sawvell (player), Wilton; Lon Olejniczak (player), Decorah; and Roger Barr (umpire), Boone.

Smith has made only one coaching stop during his high school baseball career. For 33 years he has been the head baseball coach at Ogden High School. After graduating from Griswold High School where he was a four-year starter as a pitcher, outfielder and catcher, Smith took his baseball talents to Kansas State University and walked on the baseball team. He pitched for the Wildcats for two years before graduating in 1977.

Smith began coaching in the Ogden school system from day one after signing his teaching contract.

Throughout his tenure at Ogden he has been involved in coaching the girls and boys basketball teams, along with junior high football.

Smith took over a struggling baseball program in 1980 and built it into the powerhouse program it is today. He has taken his teams to the state tournament three times and has won several conference and district titles.

And since taking over as baseball coach, Smith has been active with the local youth baseball programs,

DICK SMTIH Bulldog Baseball Coach promoting youth AAU baseball in the community along with Babe Ruth and Little League programs.

As a member of the IHSBCA for 35 years, he has served on several committees, has been on the Board of Directors, and has been the chairman for the all-district meetings.

He currently serves on the Awards Committee.

The current list of hall of famers includes Ogden’s Gary Paulsen who was inducted as an umpire.

An interesting note for movie buffs: Those who have seen the movie “The Final Season” are well familiar with the small town of Norway, IA and their baseball team’s long run of state championships. Eight players, along with legendary Norway coach Jim Van Scoyoc, are among those previously inducted into the Iowa High School Baseball Hall of Fame.

Results from past blood drive Last week’s blood drive here may have helped save 71 lives according to the Life Serve Blood Center.

Twenty-nine individuals made a donation Monday, Jan. 6 during the Ogden Community Blood Drive.

This Sunday I did something that was not in my usual routine. I ventured into town and went to church.

It’s not that I have anything against going to church, it’s just not a regular thing that I do. In the warmer months, the horse sanctuary is open for visitors on Sunday, so I spend the mornings cleaning the barn and turnouts. I’ve adopted my own spiritual practice that works well for me. This consists of watching Joel Osteen’s half hour show early Sunday morning on TV, reading a variety of religious and spiritual books, visiting holy places like the Santuario at Chimayo, the Loretto Chapel with the mysterious staircase in Santa Fe, the St. Francis of Assisi church near where I live, and other sacred places whenever I get the chance. I pray a lot. I keep my Bible and prayer books beside my bed and often read from them before going to sleep at night.

I consider my church to be the wilderness and beautiful land that I live in. Occasionally I go to a special service or mass, but it’s not a part of my usual routine.

Back in the early ’90s I had worked as a secretary in a Methodist Church in Ames. I’ve always had a deep respect for churches and the good that they represent.

This Sunday the little Methodist Church in Taos was having a special guest, my friend the Native American flute player. He was going to play his flutes and sing a new song he had written about freedom, in honor of Martin Luther King. I don’t get the opportunity very often to see Rick perform, so decided to go to the service and see what this little church was like and enjoy the music.

I headed into town but about halfway there I almost turned around and went home. Suddenly I had cold feet.

I knew I was being silly, but I wondered if the people in the church would be friendly, if they’d welcome me, or if they’d know I was mainly there to hear Rick play. Taos is a small town and I can’t go to the store or an event without running into people I know. I wasn’t Methodist. I was familiar with the work that the minister did here – helping with the homeless shelter, organizing food drives and providing food for the poor, and many other wonderful things but I had not participated in

any of these things.

I forced myself to go to the service, despite my sudden and illogical discomfort. When I walked in, the pastor was standing at the entrance. We exchanged introductions and he welcomed me. Rick was playing his flute as I entered the chapel. The music was lovely and seemed totally appropriate in this beautiful setting.

I enjoyed the service. No one looked at me like I was an outsider. The music and prayers were uplifting. Like many things in Taos, it was uniquely different but very special.

There were quotes printed in the bulletin that pertained to the teachings and to ML King. The pastor talked about Rev. King’s work and his inspiring “I have a dream” speech. One of the quotes referred to this speech, a quote by civil rights activist and gospel singer Mahalia Jackson. As Rev. King was giving the speech he’d prepared, Mahalia was behind him urging him to “Tell’em about the dream, Martin. Tell’em about the dream.” And so he did, and the words that followed have gone down in history and ML King has since become known as one of the men who shaped American history.

Two years ago, I wrote a column about Martin Luther King. I had written about how we are free today, because of people like Martin Luther King. But what have we done with that freedom? Do we pray together, struggle together? As I left the church that day, those words came back to me. Maybe that’s partly what prompted me to attend the service. It wasn’t just for the wonderful flute music, but also to pray with others.

The experience did not inspire me to want to join this particular church, or look for another to join, but I did feel a great appreciation for it. I left with a song in my heart and a smile on my face.

And I was reminded once again just how important it is to listen to our dreams and to not be afraid to tell others about them.

Until next time, Ruth B.

Taking the next step for improving the Squaw Creek Watershed The Squaw Creek Watershed Management Authority involves a team of people from large and small communities, rural and urban areas in the counties of Boone, Story, Hamilton and Webster who share an interest in Squaw Creek.

There has been a great deal of work conducted over the past ten years in this watershed culminating in the formation of the Squaw Creek Watershed Management Authority (SWMA).

Paul Toot, Story County Board of Supervisor and Chair of the Squaw Creek Watershed Management Authority says, “based on feedback we’ve received from public surveys there is a definite interest in improving the quality of Squaw Creek and its tributaries. With financial support from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, the time has come to develop a comprehensive watershed management plan to provide guidance for watershed activities over the next 20 years.”

The Squaw Creek Watershed Management Authority was created in 2012. With this foundation in place, the next step is to create a watershed management plan.

Emmons and Olivier Resources, Inc. (EOR) from Oakdale, Minnesota was hired to facilitate the planning process. EOR is a water resource-based engineering and environmental consulting firm that specializes in: watershed planning;

water resources engineering and modeling; biological surveying and ecological restoration; and sustainable site design.

Pat Conrad, EOR Water Resources Specialist will oversee the project planning effort.

“The first step in developing an effective watershed management plan for Squaw Creek is to conduct an assessment of the watershed and its waters. It’s really important for us to have a realistic view of the watershed and the challenges facing the Creek such as contaminated runoff and flooding in Ames. We want to make sure our plan is based on solid science.”

Protecting water is not a new concept but watershed management is a new approach in Iowa.

The planning process will take about one year and it will be addressing extreme variations in flow, erosion and sedimentation, elevated nutrients levels (nitrate and phosphate), loss of biodiversity, elevated “coliform” bacteria levels and trash in the watershed.

As the planning process proceeds, there will be an effort to engage different personal and public interest in the watershed.

For more information on the Squaw Creek Watershed Management Authority and this project, contact Leanne Harter, Story County Planning and Development at lharter@ storycounty.com

“Yes!” Sins such as murder, adultery, theft, lying, covetousness, and failing to honor father and mother are all principles within the Ten Commandments which will never cease to apply to mankind. The remainder of the Ten Commandments applies in principle as well. Don’t worship idols and don’t use God’s name in vain. The one commandment that many people have questions about today is, “Remember the Sabbath to keep it holy.” We need to understand that God’s principle was for the children of Israel to set aside a day out of the week to rest and to worship. This day was the Sabbath or seventh day - Saturday.

Is Saturday binding today as the day of God’s worship? No. Has God changed the Sabbath to Sunday? No. Sunday is not the Sabbath day.

Is the principle of worshipping God at least one day out of the week still in effect? Yes. Today, God commands us that we worship upon the “first day of the week” (Acts 20:7; 1 Cor. 16:2) or Sunday.

Now, what is the key to understanding the relationship between the Old Testament and the New Testament? Col 2:13, 14 says, “And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath He quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross.” The “handwriting of ordinances” is a reference to the Mosaic covenant. This passage clearly teaches that it was “nailed to the cross” along with our sins. Notice also Heb 8:13, “In that he saith, A new covenant, he hath made the first old. Now that which decayeth and waxeth old is ready to vanish away.” The first covenant is now the “old” covenant. It has decayed, waxed old, and vanished away in its authority. In contrast, the New Covenant is new, young, and visible–it is the one that contains all authority from God. Notice Heb 9:15a, “And for this cause he is the mediator of the New Testament….” Jesus mediates for a new covenant now. To try to place oneself under the Old Covenant now is to reject the mediating power of Jesus Christ. Notice Heb 10:9b, “…He taketh away the first, that he may establish the second.” The first needed to be done away with in order for the second to contain authority for all mankind.

Submissions came from 76 Iowa counties across the state, from Rock Rapids to Burlington, from Shenandoah to Decorah. Many were first-time entrants, with nearly sixty of them - approximately 18% of the adults - having poems selected for publication in this edition. Content and form of the poems is as varied as vocations and backgrounds of the writers. The winning poem in the National/World Events category dealt with guns and mental health issues, while others explored the personalities of Lance Armstrong, Richard Nixon, and Queen Elizabeth.

RSVP get involved RSVP 55+ Volunteer Program has trained volunteers for following 5 presentations. Each presentation can be tailored to fit the time allotment scheduled for a program.

RSVP also has trained volunteers to coach Matter of Balance - Falls Prevention Class.

Get Prepared - Disaster Preparedness: Volunteers present information on how to have your family prepared for potential disaster or emergencies. Topics include developing a Family Communications Plan, how to assemble a 3-day disaster supply kit for your family and pets, and how to shelterin-place. Get informed and get prepared! It is not a question of “if” but “when”; we never know when disaster might strike. This presentation is done in collaboration with the American Red Cross.

SAIF - (Seniors Against Investment Fraud): Seniors are a prime target of frauds and scams.

In partnership with the Iowa Insurance Division RSVP volunteers present information on educating Iowans age 50 and older about investment fraud and how to avoid being victimized. Real-life scams, tips for spotting potential fraud and how to report it to the authorities; these are just some of the topics presented. Older adults will come away from the presentation with tools to help them from becoming just another statistic of frauds and scams Food Assistance Outreach: RSVP partners with the ISU Extension to educate older adults about the kinds of food needed to stay healthy as they age and how they can buy these foods on fixed income through the Iowa Food Assistance program. Volunteers share information on how to apply for Food Assistance and can help older adults apply online or by filling out a hard copy of the application form for Food Assistance.

RSVP 55+ Volunteer Program of Boone and Greene Counties: RSVP recruits individuals age 55 and older to meet community needs through volunteerism.

In order to continue our efforts, we are always searching for the time, services, and talents of volunteers.

RSVP helps to match individuals up with the best possible volunteer opportunity for them; finding a volunteer opportunity that fits their

schedule, respects their personal preferences, and provide a rewarding and enjoyable experience. See how you can make a difference. . . one person at a time. Get involved through RSVP! RSVP Adult Caregiver Respite Program of Boone County: Respite Volunteers help fulltime caregivers of adults age 25 years or older, who need time off from full-time care giving responsibilities. Full-time caregivers need to take time to care for themselves; it is a necessity to better care for their loved ones. Free respite service is just a phone call away to give fulltime caregivers two to four hours a week or month of free time away from their care giving responsibilities. Respite volunteers form a friendship with the care recipients relieving the caregiver of worries when leaving the home for a short break. Respite volunteers are background checked and trained.

GAP (Grocery Shoppingassistance Program) of Greene County: Because there is only one grocery store in Greene County to accommodate the area and surrounding communities, individuals eligible for GAP in communities outside of Jefferson may have a harder time with their grocery shopping. The purpose of GAP is to help clients maintain their independence and remain in their homes by performing a function necessary for independent living.

Client participation may be short term (due to illness or recuperation) or long term. GAP volunteers are background checked and trained.

Matter of Balance - Fall Prevention classes: A Matter of Balance (MOB) is designed to benefit community-dwelling older adults who are concerned about falls, have sustained a fall in the past, restrict activities because of concerns about falling, and are interested in improving flexibility, balance, and strength. Classes help participants learn to view falls and fear of falling as controllable, set realistic goals for increasing activity, change their environment to reduce fall risk factors, and promote exercise to increase strength and balance.

For more information, schedule a presentation or host a Matter of Balance-Falls Prevention class call the RSVP office at 515-433-7836.

NOBODY COVERS THE BULLDOGS LIKE WE DO!

Boys dominate GC, but East Sac and WA prove to be too much for the Bulldogs

Wrestlers are finally back in action; Munson notches 100th career win Ogden varsity wrestlers went for nearly a month without seeing action. Their last meet was Dec. 21.

The Bulldog were off for Christmas break then weather forced the postponement of the meet Thursday, Jan. 16. It has been rescheduled for Thursday, Feb. 6 at Ogden. A meet with Roland-Story and North Polk Thursday, Jan. 23 (at Alleman) has been added to the schedule.

“It is really good to get back in the swing of things for the varsity squad,” said Coach Brian Reimers following last Saturday’s tournament at Underwood.

“Even though it is a long ways down to Underwood, we love going there to get some different competition.”

Ogden finished in the runner-up position for the day, losing to the fourth ranked team from the second to the largest class in Nebraska, Gretna.

Reimers felt his team did quite well since they did not fill two weight classes and inserted a JV wrestler in another class.

The Bulldogs crowned four champions Kolby Munson, Kyler Kiner, Henry Haglund and Nick Ross.

Shawn Heaning, Austin Lentz and Gyenna Hansen were runners-up.

Munson notched his 100th career win for the Bulldogs with his fourth win of the day, finishing with five wins, all by falls.

Henry Haglund had a nailbiter of a match with a 1-0 decision over what Reimers feels is a really good

by ZANE SATRE OHS SENIOR

For Ogden coach David Morris, Tuesday night’s matchup against Woodward Academy was extremely important. Because both the Bulldogs and Knights are grouped in the same district for the post-season, whoever won the game would have an advantage in district seeding.

Unfortunately, the Bulldogs fell behind early on, unable to stop the Knights from driving to the basket.

For awhile, Ogden found themselves down by 17 points before fighting back to a halftime score of 32-23.

The Dogs’ struggles continued in the third and fourth quarters. A full-court press couldn’t pull Ogden closer, and fouls began to add up. In the end, the Bulldogs lost a tough one by the final score of 71-55.

Cayce Good scored 19 points to lead Ogden in the books. Grant Heineman had 15 points and 13 rebounds to finish with a doubledouble, and Graham Tews came off the bench to score 14 points.

Ogden 61 - Guthrie Center 33 After Tuesday’s stinging loss against Woodward Academy, the Ogden Bulldogs needed a win.

Friday’s opponent, Guthrie Center, presented the perfect opportunity.

The Tigers came into Friday on a five game losing streak, and hadn’t scored more than 19 points in a game since Christmas.

Starting in the first quarter, Ogden controlled the game. Strong defensive pressure by the Bulldogs kept Guthrie Center from scoring early on.

At half, Ogden held a 32-19 lead.

The Bulldogs started right where they left off in the third quarter, pressing the Tigers hard on defense, and churning out points on the other end of the court. Ogden went on to win by a final score of 61-33.

Cayce Good had a strong performance for the Bulldogs, scoring 26 points. Bryce Snedden scored another 9 points and Caleb Frye had 7 points.

East Sac 82 - Ogden 39 Ouch! to put it simply. The Bulldog boys traveled all the way up to East Sac County on Saturday, and played a really short game. The reason? They got beat by 43 points.

To their credit, the East Sac County Raiders are extremely talented, and it showed. Their size and shooting skill dominated the Bulldogs from the start. After just the 1st quarter, the Raiders already had a 33-10 lead. Shortly after halftime, Ogden fell behind by 35 points. At that point, continuous clock kicked in, and the game sped to a final score of 82-39.

Sophomore Bryce Snedden led the Bulldogs in the scorebook with 12 points. Cayce Good, Grant Heineman, and Jared Adreon each scored 6 points.

This week, Ogden faces off against conference opponents Des

East Sac and Guthrie Center hand Bulldogs pair of losses

by ZANE SATRE OHS SENIOR

Guthrie Center 52 - Ogden 36 The midpoint of the season can be a rough time in high school basketball. Two months of nonstop practicing and playing begin to take their toll, and the second round of conference games starts up. For Ogden, that meant a trek down to Guthrie Center on Friday night. Having beaten the Tigers by 13 points at the beginning of the season, the Bulldogs were optimistic about their chances. Maybe a little too optimistic.

For most of the game, both teams struggled to hit shots. What made the difference, however, was rebounding. When Guthrie Center missed shots, they grabbed the rebound and put it back in. When Ogden missed shots, it was a different story. At half, the Bulldogs found themselves down 37-22.

Ogden couldn’t gain any traction in the second half, either, and fell by a final score of 52-36.

The Bulldogs were led on the scoreboard by Audra Burt, who scored 16 points and grabbed 8 rebounds. Liz Good added a further 7 points and Abbey Gustafson put up 5 points.

East Sac 77 - Ogden 36 Long story short, East Sac County is really far away. After a long Saturday afternoon bus ride, the Ogden Bulldogs faced off against the East Sac County Raiders in what turned out to be yet another tough contest.

The Raiders jumped ahead early, grabbing a 23-12 lead in the first quarter. Ogden tried to keep pace in the second quarter, but the Bulldogs struggled to finish under the basket, and fell behind by 20 points at halftime. East Sac surged further ahead in the third and fourth quarters, and went on to win the game by a final score of 77-36.

Ogden’s overall record now stands at 3-8. This week, the Bulldogs stay home to face Des Moines Christian and Earlham.

You can show the Bulldogs you’re proud of them by showing good sportsmanship!

7th Grade lost 24-42.

8th Grade lost 22-38.

BOONE COUNTY SHERIFF’S REPORT Thursday, January 9 12:58 p.m.: Sgt. Wingate and K-9 Bandit assisted the Ames Police Department with a search of a house and located both meth and marijuana in the residence.

Friday, January 10 7:49 a.m.: A person called to report one of his employees was in the ditch on 216th just west of L Ave. The driver of the vehicle Tarron Streigle lost control on the ice covered road and went into the ditch damaging his vehicle and a fence. Streigle was not injured in the accident.

7:56 a.m.: A person called the BCSO to report a truck on the ice at Waterworks Bridge on E-26.

Deputy Godzicki responded to the scene and after a brief investigation determined the vehicle was stolen from Nevada, Iowa. The vehicle was towed and held for further investigation.

3:50 p.m.: The driver of a vehicle called to report that she was in an accident upside down in the ditch but could not tell the 911 center where she was at. The communication specialist for the BCSO was able to locate her by using GPS coordinates from her phone and got her some assistance. Deputy Pontius

responded along with the Ogden Police Department and Ogden First Responders. Anna Stephenson lost control of the vehicle she was driving in the 900 block of H Ave. and rolled her vehicle into the ditch.

Minor injuries were reported.

Saturday, January 11 4:59 p.m.: The BCSO 911 center received calls of a pick-up that had rolled over into a field in the 220 block 190th St. Deputies from the BCSO along with the Boone County Ambulance and the Boone Fire Department all responded. A vehicle driven by Forrest Grabau was attempting to pass another vehicle when it lost control on the ice covered road and rolled into the ditch and ended up in a bean field. Grabau was transported to the hospital, where his condition is unknown at this time.

5:55 p.m.: A person called to report a vehicle in the ditch that had struck a power pole on I Ave. just east of 216th St. Deputy Fangman was advised and responded. A car driven by Andrew Stumbo lost control on the ice covered road, went into the ditch and struck a power pole. There were no injuries reported.

Monday, January 13 3:05 p.m.: A panic alarm was triggered at the Boone County Courthouse for an out of control juvenile. Chief Deputy Lampe responded to the incident along with Boone PD officers. The juvenile was restrained while awaiting transport to another facility.

Tuesday, January 14 9:44 a.m.: A person called the BCSO 911 center and advised there was a semi pushing a car down the road sideways at Highway 30 and Highway 17. Deputy Ruter was advised and responded to the scene along with the Boone County Hospital and Boone Fire. After investigating the accident there was no cause determined as to why the accident occurred. It was very windy and that may have played into the situation.

The driver of the car Jacob Winters was cited for driving while suspended, driving while barred, and not having an ignition interlock device in stalled on his vehicle. There were only minor injuries reported.
