Corner Market closing after more than a decade on Latimer’s Main Street

BY NICK PEDLEY Corner Market owners Gary and Jan Stratmann recently announced the Latimer grocery store will bag its Ànal sack of groceries next month following 12 years of operation.

Escalating operating costs and a stagnant customer base are to blame for the closure. The owners said they will shut the doors for good when the store·s food service and alcohol licenses expire on Aug. 19, which is exactly 12 years to the day Corner Market opened in 2002.

For the Stratmanns, the decision wasn·t easy.

“It was hard for me,” said Jan. “You have your really good days and some bad days, but you have more good days than you do bad. I really enjoy the people.”

The Stratmanns opened Corner Market 12 years ago after purchasing the former Latimer Grocery from Kerri and Rod Luhring. The couple built a walk-in cooler, renovated the

One of the things I have accomplished in dance is starting my own competition team.

Being choreographer, coach and mentor for the three teams I taught was an amazing experience.

3. Besides all of the grandstand events, I love working and socializing in the saloon and ice cream parlor. It gave me a chance to talk to an assortment of people and get to know how far they traveled. It is amazing to hear how far they drove to come to our great fair.

A 1985 Hampton graduate, Hintch·s interest in life overseas was set into motion during his time as an exchange student in Latin America.

After graduation, Hintch studied at the University of Iowa and joined the Peace Corps, eventually gaining a masters degree in Public Health and Tropical Medicine.

Since then, Hintch has built a career helping people all over the world, working in Central America, East Africa and the Caribbean. He even worked domestically with the Red Cross before moving to Washington D.C. to support international health programs in the Middle East.

However, the dangers of the region eventually led him to look for safer avenues.

“Working over in Pakistan and Afghanistan, security over there is fragile,” he said.

After experiencing some close calls in the politically unstable region, Hintch began looking for a

person in this community. I believe this because I have high standards and expectations for myself such as education, community service, morals and character. Being involved is very important to me whether it is in school, or in the community. Having a good reputation was very important to me in high school and continues to be something that I strive for in all of my future, goals and ambition.

6. I believe that our fair is one of the best for many reasons. We have the heart and passion within our community and fair board to keep this tradition spectacular.

Because I am so involved in the fair and was once the daughter of the fair board president, I not only see it as a fair, but as a place where so many memories were made. I would feel honored to represent Franklin County in a digniÀed way, showing people the true heart and passion we have for Franklin County.

7. Having leadership has always been something very important to me. With leadership comes many traits that I have including responsibility, trustworthiness, respect and courage. I would be honored to represent not only my own traits, but also the traits Franklin County has to offer at the Iowa State Fair.

Jeanne Plagge of the Education Foundation of CAL Community Schools was presented with a $5,000 check from Sue Gauger, First Citizens National Bank in Latimer. First Citizens and the FCNB Charitable Foundation is giving the Education Foundation two grants of $5,000 each for an electronic message board to be built on the west side of the CAL school.

BY NICK PEDLEY The Franklin County Board of Supervisors met with Brent Symens at its meeting Monday to discuss future changes to the county attorney·s ofÀce.

Symens, the lone candidate running for the county attorney job in the November election, will presumably take ofÀce in January 2015.

That·s when the attorney·s ofÀce switches from a part-time position to a full-time position, which will necessitate some changes.

“We just wanted to have a preliminary discussion so we·re all singing out of the same songbook when we switch over to the full-time attor-

ney,” said board Chair Jerry Plagge.

The supervisors expressed interest in moving the attorney·s ofÀce into the courthouse by January. Current County Attorney Daniel Wiechmann, Jr., who serves in a part-time capacity, operates the ofÀce out of his private practice. The supervisors felt moving the ofÀce into the courthouse would better serve Franklin County residents in addition to making services more efÀcient.

Symens agreed, but certain issues exist. Limited space at the courthouse leaves very few options for moving the attorney·s ofÀce there.

The supervisors orginally suggested it share space with another depart-

ment, but Symens was hesitant about the idea.

“You can·t have a law ofÀce with people walking in and out of it. There·s conÀdentiality issues,” he explained. “I think that·s extremely important.”

The supervisors understood the problems and explored other options. Ultimately, the group felt moving the attorney·s ofÀce into a small space in the lower level of the courthouse would be the best option for now.

“I have to take whatever is available,” Symens said. “I·m not saying it·s a good option, but it·s the best option we have.”

Hampton council discusses PD vacancies, controlled burn

BY NICK PEDLEY A light agenda Àlled with routine business greeted the Hampton City Council at its meeting last Thursday.

Permits for the upcoming Summerfest celebration were the only items listed under new business. The group granted the Greater Franklin County Chamber of Commerce a special alcoholic beverage sales permit for the Aug. 8 concert event, which will be held in Band Shell Park from 5-11:30 p.m.

The council also approved various street closures on Aug. 8-9 to accommodate Summerfest crowds.

First Street Southwest along the east side of Band Shell Park will close Thursday, Aug. 7, to allow vendor set-up. The street will close down again on Friday, Aug. 8, at 4 p.m., and will remain closed until 11 p.m., on Saturday, Aug. 9.

First Avenue Southwest and South Federal Street will also close on Friday, Aug. 8, at 4 p.m., and will

remain closed until 11 p.m., on Saturday, Aug. 9.

The council unanimously approved the alcohol license and street closures on a 5-0 vote. Council Member Valerie Haugebak, whose resignation took effect the following day on July 11, was absent.

“It looks almost exactly like last year,” said Mayor Brook Boehmler.

“It·s the same as they·ve been doing the past couple of years.

Following the Summerfest approvals, the council passed a resolution for a controlled burn of a house owned by Robert Bohr at 221 1st Ave. SW. The council had approved the resolution OK·ing the burn at its last meeting, but the address was listed incorrectly.

“We·re basically cleaning up the original application. No other changes have been made to the resolution,” Boehmler said.

They also installed security cameras, much to their chagrin.

“I·m not going to miss the shoplifters,” Gary said.

Despite a few troublemakers, the Stratmanns had mostly fond memories from the store·s 12-year existence.

Jan, the store·s lone full-time employee, said the small town atmosphere she experienced while operating Corner Market stood out the most. She enjoyed getting to know her customers, even down to the very toppings they liked on their deli sandwiches.

“Sometimes we·d know better than the wives what their guys wanted on them, and also what type of chew they liked and which cigarettes they smoked,” she recalled.

Tony Hershey has been gardening since he was 5 years old

BY BARB RISTAU FARMERS MARKET DIRECTOR

Thirteen Emergency Medical Technicians representing Franklin General Hospital EMS, Shef¿eld EMS and West Franklin EMS successfully completed additional trauma training, thanks to a $3,000 grant from the Community Foundation of Franklin County. The grant made it possible for the EMTs to take the Prehospital Trauma Life Support (PHTLS) class offered by University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics Emergency Medical Services Learning Resources Center. PHTLS is recognized around the world as the leading continuing education program for prehospital emergency trauma care. SUBMITTED PHOTO COURTESY OF LEANN STROTHER

Tony began gardening when he was Àve years old and in the Àrst grade. As the oldest of seven children, gardening for the family was a necessity and he was taught the difference between and plant and a weed at age Àve.

By the time he was a teenager, it was his job to put in at least two hours a day weeding the garden patch the family rented. He would take his tools, hop on his bike and ride to their garden site to weed for at least two hours every day.

As an adult he has had a garden every summer except one. After he graduated college, he spent the summer in the Philippines doing missionary work, but there was no place for him to have a garden. Always before and since he has gardened at least for himself. The last eight years he has been a full-time gardener and antique dealer.

In 1994 he purchased the acreage that he now “farms”. Two years later he began doing farmers markets.

He has sold in Hampton 14 or 15 of those 18 years. Tony Àrst started here because he was a minister for a church in Dows and passed through Hampton on his way to his acreage.

He currently sells in farmers markets in Hampton and Cedar Falls.

Tony¶s land consists of 4.5 acres.

One-half acre is in hostas – he grows over 200 varieties of the plant. Another half-acre is in vegetables and fruits of all kinds. Garlic, raspberries and potatoes are his main crops, but he also has lots of pepper plants, tomatoes, squash of all kinds, onions and berries.

This year he will have green onions because of a “deal” he found

THE

PART TWO

in onion sets this spring. Usually he does not deal with the early spring crops like lettuce, spinach, radishes and onions because they are a lot of work and the proÀts are not there.

Most of his crops are grown in small beds that he spreads around his land. Weed control is done by mulch and by pulling weeds by hand. With the rains this year, weeds are really easy to pull!

He does not use chemicals near his gardens and would try to certify as an organic grower, but he is bound by farmland on the east that occasionally does get some spill

from chemicals the farmer uses. If he were to claim total organic he would need to leave 100 feet of his land on that side unplanted because of that chance. At the present time he does not want to do this.

Weeds are prevalent in his gardens and some of them become plants that he sells. Catnip has been a favorite at the Cedar Falls market.

Milk weed pods have been a favorite “crop” he sells on the Internet to artists. He also sells many seeds on the Internet, especially in the winter months.

Tony also makes and sells his own jams and jellies, and he·s very involved in selling antiques and attending antique shows. He is one of two vendors we have that accepts the EBT card and can also take credit cards. He has been certiÀed for the WIC and senior programs also and can accept those checks and vouchers.

Fair time fun in Franklin County Saddle up Franklin County, because it·s time for the 2014 year·s fair!

It·s hard to believe fair week is already here. Summer has Áown by fast so far, and this is just another reminder that its days are numbered. But we welcome it with open arms nonetheless. The Franklin County Fair is highly anticipated by both local residents and visitors alike, and it·s sure to deliver Àve days of fun for the entire family this week.

This year·s schedule provides numerous opportunities to get out of the house and hit up the fairgrounds July 1620. An excellent entertainment lineup is poised to deliver crowd-pleasing shows all week, and there·s bound to be something to satisfy everyone·s tastes.

The ever-popular Barnes PRCA Rodeo kicks things off Wednesday night and will be followed by the lawn mower, go cart and four-wheeler races Thursday. Country music favorite Sawyer Brown takes the stage Friday night and will be followed by up-and-coming Nashville stars Danielle Bradbery and The Swon Brothers. The busy week wraps up Sunday night with the Figure 8 and Cruiser Races, which is sure to draw favorable crowds of all ages.

An excellent entertainment lineup is poised to deliver crowdpleasing shows all week, and there’s bound to be something to satisfy everyone’s tastes.

The rodeo, concerts and races are the exclamation points for each day during the fair, but they·re by no means the only thing happening. Many other exhibits and events are planned Wednesday through Sunday for fairgoers both young and old. Grandpa·s Farm gives younger visitors a blast from the past as they learn old farming techniques, and the Franklin Farm Hands teaches children the importance of agriculture in their daily lives. Additionally, things like the hypnotist, carnival, Elephant Encounters, fair queen contest and the Sunday worship service give guests something to look forward to each and every day.

Of course, entertainment is only one piece of the county fair pie. Agriculture is the real reason for the season, and our local fair would be lacking without it. Young 4-H and FFA members spend numerous hours preparing their exhibits and raising their livestock throughout the year. Whether it·s a blue ribbon arts and craft display or a prize-winning steer, these exhibitors should be praised for their dedication and interest in agriculture.

All of these events wouldn·t be possible without the hard work and dedication of the Franklin County Fair Board and fair staff. Most visitors probably don·t realize the monumental amount of effort put into each fair, but it shouldn·t go unnoticed. Countless hours of preparation, planning and careful oversight go into making this event one of the best county fairs in north central Iowa and the entire state. Without these dedicated individuals, the Franklin County Fair wouldn·t be the spectacle it·s become year in and year out.

Franklin County will be a fun and exciting place during the next Àve days. The forecast looks great for the most part, which a nice change of pace from years past. Scorching temps and heavy humidity typically greet fairgoers each July. That doesn·t appear to be the case this year, and local residents should take advantage.

So what are you waiting for? Head out to the Franklin County Fairgrounds and enjoy the next Àve days to the fullest – you won·t regret it!

Eminent domain is out of control in this country. It was intended to be used by governing bodies for the construction of public projects for the beneÀt of many people. It was not intended for economic gain by private enterprise.

The Rock Island Clean Line (RICL) is a prime example of private enterprise trying to take advantage of the system for their economic gain.

Why should the rights of thou-

LOOKING BACK

sands of landowners be sacriÀced for this highly speculative, non-utility, unregulated, unnecessary, private, merchant transmission line so billionaire investors can reap billions more?

RICL claims they want to avoid eminent domain for the sake of the landowners, but, in fact, it is RICL that beneÀts by not going to eminent domain. Taking property through eminent domain is a long complicated process that RICL does not want

to engage in. Eminent domain would be costly, time consuming, and laborious for RICL. Under Iowa law, landowners are afforded better protections than they are under RICL·s voluntary easement contract. Do not be pressured

by RICL land agents to sign an easement contract with this company.

Fifty Years Ago July 16, 1964 Members of the National Guard unit at Hampton will be joining several thousand other guardsmen from around Iowa, leaving Saturday about 6:00 a.m. for Camp Ripley, at Little Falls, Minnesota. About Àfty guardsmen including three ofÀcers from Hampton will be in eight vehicles in the caravan. They will be joined at Hampton by a guard caravan from Iowa Falls, will go to Mason City to join that guard unit, and will be joined by members of the guard unit from Cedar Falls.

R.R. “Bob” Ressler, of Bristow, has been hired as a sales manager, and will work on planning and estimating with the Hampton Lumber Company, in Dumont.

Ressler, age thirty-nine, and his wife Edith, have three daughters, Kathy, age sixteen, Doris, age thirteen, and Ann, age ten. The family attends the St. James Lutheran church, in Allison. The family plans to move to Hampton from Bristow, as soon as suitable housing can be found.

The four Hampton FFA members involved in the recent judging win are, Mark Halfwassen, Dennis Porter, Mike Jorgensen and Richard Showalter, holding the trophy they won, on Tuesday, July 14th.

Forty Years Ago July 11, 1974 Heavy rains during late spring and early summer hit many area farms to the growers· disadvantage while others haven·t felt the effects so strongly. Glen and Lois Crabtree of rural Latimer are shown in a corn Àeld near their home which has progressed well enough to start to tassle this week. The Crabtree family also said that they had 150 acres of corn southwest of Dumont that had been planted several days earlier and was up even further than this stand. Unfortunately many area farmers are in the same boat as Gene Miller of rural Dumont. The wet weather has caused many corn and bean Àelds to come up poorly or not at all in Áood areas. Miller is shown examining a spot of low corn, many

of which will hurt the yield he will get from the 100 acres of corn he has growing near his home.

Mr. and Mrs. Howard Gillespie and family of Brad ford spent the Fourth of July weekend camping at Beeds Lake.

Jim Davies and Jeff Harris were in Cedar Falls the past two weeks attending a debate clinic at the University of Northern Iowa. They will be seniors this fall in Hampton Community High School.

Thirty Years Ago July 19, 1984 Construction work at Beeds Lake began early this week. New drainage pipes are being placed along the north side of the road leading to the west end of the park in hopes of draining the picnic area where water often collects after heavy rains. About one-fourth mile of the road and the entrance will be resurfaced next week.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Jorgensen of Latimer attended the wedding of Valerie Halleran and Jay Plagge on Saturday at Oak Park, Ill. Family members of residents at the Franklin General Hospital extended care unit gathered at the hospital Wednesday night for a picnic. Family members competed in contests, such as egg tosses and balloon popping, and played volleyball. A balloon launch was also held as part of the festivities.

Maureen Weichmann, dressed as a clown, hands out candy to the residents.

Twenty Years Ago July 14, 1994 Denny Jones of Hansell, Leonard Sanders of Alden and Art Koenigsberg of ShefÀeld put the Ànishing touches on a woodworking machine in the wood shop at Pleasant Hill. The machine, owned and donated by Mr. and Mrs. Herb Meyer of Waverly, was manufactured by Crescent Machine Co., Leetonia, Ohio, between 1910 and 1920.

Jake and Letha Allen and Mabel Kothenbeutel of Chapin attended the wedding Friday night, July 8 of Jennifer Poyser and Doug Dodd held at St. Paul·s Lutheran Church in Hampton with a reception at the convention center.

Harry Birdsell checks his championship card with Jack Sogard following Hampton men·s Senior Invitational golf tournament Monday. Looking on are Rich Atkinson and Gordon Sietsema.

Birdsell topped his age division and the overall tournament with an evenpar 74. Sogard and Atkinson were

co-chairmen of the tourney.

Ten Years Ago July 14, 2004 The 2004 Franklin County Relay for Life held Friday and Saturday, July 9-10, at the SCMT track in ShefÀeld was a complete success by many standards. For one thing, more than 220 walkers participated in 19 teams. For another thing, the event shattered its $30,000 goal by raising $37,000 so far, with more money coming in almost daily. Plus, the total money raised by the sales of luminarias has not been counted yet, so the Ànal Àgure will be even higher. Dozens of cancer surviviors begin the Relay for Life Survivors Walk to the sound of applause from family, friends and well-wishers.

The survivors took their next lap accompanied by family members.

Rebecca Rother, Latimer, a Buena Vista University Mason City Center student has been named to the dean·s list for terms three and four. She maintained a perfect 4.0 grade point average for the two terms.

He·s not seeking the limelight, but if he Ànds it that·s Àne too. Joel Van Wert, a senior at HamptonDumont this coming school year, plays basketball just because he likes the game. But he·s also driven.

A few weeks ago, Van Wert was at the USA Junior Columbus, Ohio from July 5 through July 11. Players and coaches from across the country were there. “It·s something for me to prepare for next year,” Van Wert said about the upcoming basketball season before he left for USA Junior Nationals.

Five Years Ago July 15, 2009 Gary Brower and Ron Sailer work on a motor that will drive the ice cream makers at the Franklin County Historical Society·s stand at Pleasant Hill Monday afternoon in preparation for Wednesday·s opening of the fair.

Marvin and DeAlta McKee of Chapin accompanied Del Ray and Janet McKee to Thornton Saturday morning. They attended the parade and then visited Ryan and Jenny McKee and baby William Edwin who is two weeks old.

Reader of the Week at the Hampton Public Library is Tam Hindin, age 3, and the son of Paul and Kate Hindin. Tam·s favorite book this week is “Maybe a Bear Ate It!” by Robie H. Harris.

It·s that time of year again.

By this time next week I will be back in San Diego for my annual pilgrimage to Comic-Con International.

This year promises to be quite different from previous trips. Over the years I·ve developed something of a regular schedule when it comes to the Àve days of madness that is Comic-Con. There are panels that take such a high priority that I plan my whole day around them.

Joss Whedon, for instance, generally has a panel in the massive Ballroom 20 on Friday afternoon. It·s an hour of Whedon talking about his various projects and whatever else is on his mind. It·s also often the highlight of the convention for me. In the 10 years I·ve been going to Comic-Con, I·ve missed this panel once. Never again.

To be sure of this, for the last two years I·ve spent the entire day in that room, sitting through a full schedule of other panels that I may or may not be interested in to make sure I·m there for Whedon.

For the most part, it·s a good plan.

There are always at least one or two panels I would have wanted to see anyway, and the rest are generally entertaining enough. Last year there was only one panel so uninteresting that I actually fell asleep, which is, in its own way, another beneÀt.

Another regular for me is Sunday·s “Doctor Who” panel in the vast and glorious Hall H. By far the largest room in the convention center, if a walled off section of the exhibit hall even counts as a “room,” Hall H is where the biggest attractions of the convention appear. The line to get into the room literally stretches farther than the eye can see. Inside there are thousands of seats. Giant projector screens hang from the ceiling because otherwise only about a tenth of the people in the room would be able to see what·s happening on the stage. In the back there are food vendors and bathrooms. If they didn·t clear the room at night, people would never leave.

This is also the room where somebody got stabbed with a pen a few years back.

Generally I avoid Hall H. Not because of fear of pen stabbings, but because the time investment to get into the room is generally better spent elsewhere. There·s no point in trying to get into Hall H if you·re not planning on spending the entire day in there.

On Sundays though, I make an exception. Partly because that·s the day of the Doctor Who panel and partially because there·s never much else to do on Sunday anyway.

Well, this year I·m going to have to come up with a new plan. Joss Whedon has been too busy making the next Avengers movie to have anything else to talk about, so there·s little incentive to camp in Ballroom 20 on Friday.

Instead, Whedon will presumably be in Hall H on Saturday, which means I will likely have to literally camp overnight on Friday to make sure I get a good seat. Fortunately, I have many friends at Comic-Con, and they can hold my place for a few hours so I can catch a shower and a change of clothes.

But while I·ll be camping out for Hall H on Saturday, the cast of Doctor Who will be Àlming a world away, so there will be no panel on Sunday.

My schedule is suddenly very open to try new things.

Of course, this isn·t the only way Comic-Con will be different this year.

This will be the Àrst time being back in San Diego after living there for six months last year.

Granted, you can·t make an annual visit to a city without becoming somewhat familiar with it, but it was always a place I was just visiting.

There·s a different attitude that comes when visiting a different city.

Everything is new and exciting. You don·t know where you·re going half the time and everything is special.

You go out to eat at restaurants or go shopping in stores just to see what they might have.

It·s not quite the same once you learn the roads and those stores become places that you drive by on your daily commute. What was once a restaurant you visit because you want to make the most of your vacation eventually becomes the restaurant you get take-out from when you don·t feel like cooking.

(Note to self: Get a slice from N.Y. Giant Pizza while I·m there.)

So yeah, this will be a different trip from any previous year. Which is good. After a decade of Comic-Con, it·s nice to switch things up.

$1.4 million available for water quality practices Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey announced today that $1.4 million in cost share funds are available to help farmers install new nutrient reduction practices. The practices eligible for this funding are cover crops, no-till or strip till, or using a nitriÀcation inhibitor when applying fertilizer.

“We continue to hear from farmers interested in doing even more to limit nutrient loss and better protect water quality and these funds will help them try new voluntary science-based conservation practices on their farm,” Northey said.

The cost share rate for farmers planting cover crops is $25 per acre and for farmers trying no-till or strip till is $10 per acre. Farmers using a nitrapyrin nitriÀcation inhibitor when applying fall fertilizer can receive $3 per acre.

Any farmer not already utilizing these practices can apply for this assistance. Farmers are only eligible for cost share on up to 160 acres.

The funds will be made available on Thursday, July 17, but farmers can immediately start submitting applications through their local Soil and

Farmers that have already used these practices on their farm and are ineligible for this funding are still encouraged to visit their local Soil and Water Conservation District ofÀce to discuss other cost share funding that may be available.

The Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship received $4.4 million for the Iowa Water Quality Initiative in Àscal 2015. These funds will allow the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship to continue to encourage the broad adoption of water quality practices through statewide cost share assistance as well as more intensive work in targeted watersheds.

Last year in just two weeks over 1,000 farmers signed up for cost share funding to help implement new nutrient reduction practices on 100,000 acres. The state provided $2.8 million in cost share funding was available to help farmers try a water quality practice for the Àrst time and Iowa farmers provided at least another $2.8 million to support these water quality practices.

Amelia Ann Showalter Quinn and Sarah Showalter, of Maple Grove, Minn., are the proud parents of a daughter, Amelia Ann Showalter, born 1:28 p.m., on May 5, 2014, at Maple Grove Hospital, Maple Grove, Minn.. She weighed Àve pounds, 12 ounces and was 20 inches long. She was welcomed home by big brothers Will and Graham.

Grandparents are Ron and Kathy Fiscus, of Minneapolis, Minn., Dave and Becky Hannah, of Hampton, and John and Nancy Showalter, of Hampton. Great-grandparents are: Doris Hannah, of Hansell; John Rahm, of Wheaton, Ill.; and Joyce Rohde, of Manchester.

Trees for Kids grant available for all Trees For Kids grant program is designed to provide hands-on educational opportunities for Iowa youth by planting trees on school grounds and other public places.

The grant pays up to $5,000 in tree and mulch cost, and provides educational tree planting demonstrations to participating adults and youth. Applications are now available for this fall.

This past spring, 21 schools and/ or communities received more than $68,000 to plant over 1,000 trees around the state from the Trees For Kids grant.

Over their 60 year lifespan, these trees will save more than 480,000 kilowatt hours of electricity by shading buildings and more than 98,000 therms by slowing down winds and reducing building heat loss.

Those trees will help reduce Áooding throughout by intercepting over 45,500,000 gallons of storm water and will reduce over 4,910,000 pounds of atmospheric carbon dioxide through CO2 sequestration and decreased energy production needs and emissions.

Trees planted around schools and in neighborhoods have also shown to give youth increased levels of concentration, lower levels of aggression, lower levels of obesity, and fewer symptoms of ADHD. Communities are made more livable by having a healthy, diverse tree canopy. To download the grant application, go to: http://www.iowadnr.gov/Environment/Forestry/UrbanForestry.aspx

Prairie Walk and Talk at Blackmun Prairie July 19 The Cedar Prairie Group of the Sierra Club is hosting a prairie walk and talk at Blackmun Prairie on Saturday, July 19. Meet other groups at the park at approximately 3 p.m. Naturalist Bruce Stiles will lead the hike.

The Prairie is located on Franklin Avenue on the border of Franklin and Butler counties and is one and half miles north of Ackley. It is three and a half miles west of Austinville.

Travel road C-65 three and a half miles west of Austinville to a “T” intersection and turn north on Franklin Avenue. Travel about one mile, Blackmun Prairie is on the east side of Franklin Avenue Park on the side of this little traveled gravel road.

It is recommended that participants wear sturdy shoes and a hat. Legs and arms should be covered, bring insect repellent and water.

Historically, tall grass prairie covered 70-80 percent of Iowa·s landscape. Blackmun Prairie, in western Butler County, is a 175-acre tract of land with 115 acres of dry hilltops and wet bottomlands. Beaver Creek meanders through the prairie supporting diverse plant and wildlife. The park is operated by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources and is available for prairie walks, birding and hunting.

The Cedar Prairie Group of the Sierra Club encompasses Hardin, Butler, Bremer, Black Hawk, Buchanan, Grundy and Chickasaw counties in northeast Iowa.

The event is free and the public is invited to attend. Questions call Bruce during the evenings at 319-235-9907.

FROM YOUR NEIGHBORS & SPORTS

SECTION A • HAMPTON CHRONICLE

Journey Bound Quartet to perform at fair worship service The Franklin County Ministerial Association (FCMA) has announced the entertainment for the annual worship service this Sunday at the Franklin County Fair.

Journey Bound Quartet, an Iowa-based southern gospel group, will perform at the Rehder Livestock Pavilion at 11 a.m., on July 20. The quartet will deliver a musical performance with a message, according to the event·s sponsors. A freewill offering will be taken for the Franklin County Crisis Fund.

For nearly 20 years, Journey Bound Quartet has been bringing southern gospel music to audiences around the upper Midwest. Their ministry in music has been used by God to bring the message of salvation to the lost and to bring encouragement, hope and inspiration to thousands of Christians who love the Lord and desire to live more fully to His Glory.

The ministry is non-proÀt. All income received from concerts and CD sales goes right back into the ministry to cover the expenses of travel, equipment and the production of recordings.

Though most of their concerts are in Iowa, Journey Bound has had the opportunity to sing throughout the Midwest as well as to audiences in Kentucky, Washington, Arizona, Delaware and California. They have also had the thrill of performing on the Caribbean Sea and along the shores of Alaska.

Last Àscal year, the Franklin County Crisis Fund helped 50-plus families and paid out more than $3,000. For more information on Sunday·s service, contact FCMA chair Troy Wood at (641) 456-3377.

NIACC @ Night offers Àexibility for adult students North Iowa Area Community College (NIACC) will offer night classes beginning this fall to better accommodate student schedules.

NIACC is offering an Associate of Arts Degree that can be obtained in two years by going two nights per week. Classes will be offered Monday and Thursday nights. Students are welcome to supplement their class schedule with an early morning or an online class to make it Àt their schedule.

The new NIACC @ Night program will offer two general education classes every eight weeks. One will meet on Monday and the other on Thursday.

The format of these courses is called a Hybrid course. What that means is you will be meeting face-to-face with an instructor every week but your work and assignments are done outside of class. So you are cutting your “seat time” in half by enrolling in a hybrid course.

Admission requirements, tuition and fees, academic standards, transfer policy and procedures, grading policies and instructional standards are the same as students enrolled during the day. Financial aid is available for those who qualify.

To learn more or to enroll call the NIACC Admissions OfÀce at 641-4224245 or 1-888-GO-NIACC, extension 4245.

HPD releases sTEP stats On July 1-7, over 250 city, county and state law enforcement agencies across Iowa participated in a special TrafÀc Enforcement Program (sTEP) in an effort to keep everyone safe as they traveled.

The sTEP project is funded by the Governor·s TrafÀc Safety Bureau through a program with the National Highway TrafÀc Safety Administration.

This money enables more ofÀcers to work more hours on roadways all across the state during times of the year when travel increases and trafÀc crashes, injury and death are most probable.

The Hampton Police Department has released statistics from the recent sTEP wave. The department issued four speeding tickets, one no driver·s license violation and 11 written warnings. The department also issued 13 verbal warnings.

Nothing taken for granted AGWSR jumps on CAL early in Class 1A regional softball AGWSR combined for 12 hits off of Stephanie Thielen.

“We didn’t want weak pop-ups, we wanted to be patient and let the ball come to us and we did a pretty good job of that,” Cougar co-coach Brenda Drake said. “I thought we tagged them pretty hard.”

In fact, the ¿rst three hitters in the AGWSR line-up, Madi Fryslie, Olivia Ingledue and Ashley Sicard were a combined 4-for-8, including two doubles and two RBI. Thielen struck out only one Cougar batter.

“They come from a program where they have good hitters and it probably didn’t matter what pitcher they are on, they are still going to be good hitters,” CAL coach Mikyla Hefti said. “My pitcher gave me what we needed, she threw strikes and had her defense work behind her and that’s all I can ask.”

While other teams that had winning seasons were hanging up their cleats after Wednesday night, AGWSR made sure it was playing another day.

BY KRISTI NIXON ACKLEY – While other highly-ranked teams saw their season end in the post-season on Wednesday, July 9, AGWSR was having none of that.

out because they do,” Drake said.

“Look at Iowa Falls, they got beat out and (No. 14) Dunkerton just got beat by Central City and so ratings mean nothing. To these girls, once we go out there on the ¿eld (it doesn’t matter).

“We went out there and did what we wanted to do. I thought we base ran well for the most part and getting ready. It’s one of those things where you don’t know where you need that one run. We worked in practice on base running.”

Meanwhile, Sicard, an all-state pitcher from a year ago when the Cougars ¿nished third, kept the Cadets off the base paths for the most part. She yielded only one hit and one walk while striking out six of the 14 batters she faced.

“It’s hard to tell, we made them look better than maybe what they were,” Hefti said. “Their pitcher is good, she’s got some pop on the ball and they’ve got some girls who can hit the ball, but it’s really hard to judge if they should be rated fourth by the way we played tonight.

“We didn’t get ourselves the best chance to come at them. So (saying that) I hope they do, being a local school close to CAL, I hope they come out and get to state and do well at state.”

AGWSR improved to 25-6-1 after the win while CAL closed out its season at 10-11.

Win complete

Cadets ¿nish off conference win, fall in non-conference ¿nale

BY KRISTI NIXON CLARKSVILLE – When rain halted this game a little more than three weeks ago with CAL leading 2-1, it was far from over.

Clarksville had a runner on with no outs in the bottom of the sixth inning.

But Cadet junior Austin Guerrero simply picked up where he left off and completed the win for coach Ralph Bell·s squad.

It marked his fourth win on the mound out of the six for CAL in the regular season.

“He·s a competitor,” Bell said of his starter who Ànished the game. “He makes his pitches when he needs to and he hits his spots. The kid deals it and he doesn·t crack under pressure and he·s been a blessing to have, he really has.

“I hate to put all the wins on the shoulder of one young man, but you are absolutely right, we have six wins on the year and he pitched four of the six.”

Guerrero struck out seven, although he had none when the game resumed.

When it did pick back up in the bottom of the sixth, Mason Lovrien got his Àrst hit of the game, but Matt Negen, who had reached Àrst shortly before the game was halted, found himself too far off of second and

caught in a pickle.

He was eventually tagged out at third

by Zach Vanness after a lengthy rundown that still left Lovrien on Àrst.

After that, Guerrero got Jordan Myers to line out to third and got pinch hitter Ben Waetjen to ground out to Àrst.

“The Àrst game, he was pretty dominant, the one run they got was an unearned run, so seven innings, no earned runs, he strikes out a lot of people,” Bell said. “He·s got a couple pitches in his repertoire that he uses and he uses them at the right time. I don·t call his pitches for him.

He·s a smart enough baseball kid that he knows what he needs to do and do it.

“I·m happy to see him get that win because the Àrst time we played Clarksville it did not go well.”

The two played another non-conference game right after to compensate for the trip that took only an inning and a half in which Clarksville jumped out to a big 5-0 lead in the Àrst two innings, saw CAL rally, only to play back-and-forth until the Indians pulled out the 12-7 victory.

Clarksville·s top two hitters in the line-up, Zach Sommerfelt and Jackson Hendricks, went a combined 6-for-9 at the plate and scored Àve times.

Hendricks also drove in four runs, one on a two-run triple in the second.

However, a Àve-run third inning for the Cadets knotted the score and CAL went on to take a 7-5 lead before the Indians came rallying back.

“We had a few errors, which didn·t help, we kicked the ball around,” Clarksville assistant coach Zach Bergman said. “It·s tough, they came back when we started walking guys. Dakota (Garretson) didn·t have his best game, control-wise at least; we got him calmed down when we got the stop after the bases were loaded and came back and got runs ourselves.”

The Indians also got a needed boost from Waetjen, an eighth-grader who recently cracked the starting line-up, during the second game.

“He·s got a lot of potential, a lot of upside,” Bergman said of Waetjen.

“He·s played a lot better in the last few weeks than what he has in the past. He was gone to Canada for about a week, but yeah, he·s been a good contributor since we·ve been trying to Ànd a shortstop when Zach Sommerfelt is pitching and it·s tough because (Jordan) Myers is not the fastest guy in the world, so we needed someone with a little more range.

“And then, he started nice and even

Shepherd became the oldest driver to start a race in NASCAR’s top division Sunday, breaking a record he already owned.

Hampton-Dumont romps over North Butler to end regular season

BY KRISTI NIXON ALLISON – It didn’t take long for Hampton-Dumont’s baseball team to assert itself over North Butler.

The Bulldogs, 18-11 to end the regular season, jumped on freshman pitcher Tyler Merfeld for six runs in the second inning and by the time it was over had sent in several different players to ease up on the Bearcats (813).

H-D combined for 13 hits among all 13 hitters coach Matt Lokenvitz sent to the plate.

“It’s always good when you get up quick and get everybody in to play and get everybody some experience,” Lokenvitz said, “plus resting some guys since we play Saturday.”

By the fourth inning he was sending several players who hadn’t seen a lot of varsity playing time on the ¿eld and substituting freely.

“I mean, I could have kept my starters in and scored another 10 runs on them, but there is no need in doing that,” Lokenvitz said, “so we put Brandon Westendorf makes a some (different) people in to play.” catch in center against North Conversely, Jesus Del Valle gave Butler on Thursday, July 10. up only three hits – two against the (Kristi Nixon/Hampton Chronicle) Bearcats’ No. 2 hitter Jaret Wunsch – who was quickly caught trying to steal second in the ¿rst inning. He was North Butler’s best scoring chance as he reached second in the fourth after Ty Lewis worked the only walk against the Bulldog pitcher.

Del Valle struck out four.

Dalton Nelson hit a single to lead off the ¿fth, but was quickly erased on a double-play ball hit by pinch hitter Isaac Trees.

Lead-off hitter Brandon Westendorf hit 3-for-4 and scored three times for H-D. Both teams wrapped up the regular season with each having a quick turnaround. Hampton-Dumont defeated Union, LaPorte City at Parkersburg, 4-0, on Saturday, July 12 and North Butler was scheduled to play county foe Clarksville, also on Saturday, but that game was postponed because of weather to Monday, July 14 at Janesville.

HAMPTON – No matter that one was by rout and the other by a onerun margin, the Bulldogs baseball team pulled out a doubleheader sweep of Clarion-GoldÀeld on Monday, July 7 at home.

Due to rain-outs throughout the season, the rare doubleheader was played at Hampton with both teams trading home-and-away spots on the scoreboard with Hampton-Dumont winning the opener 15-2 in seven and then scored a run in the sixth inning to take an 8-7 win in the nightcap.

The wins solidi¿ed H-D’s spot for ¿fth in an ever-competitive North Central Conference.

Coach Matt Lokenvitz said they were two good, much-needed wins for his squad.

The Bulldogs emerged with a big eight-run seventh inning to break the ¿rst game wide open. Cole Miller ¿nished with three of H-D’s 13 hits as every single batter in the line-up notched at least one hit and the Cowboys’ pitchers issued eight walks.

H-D also had its way on the bases with nine steals.

Defensively, Bailey Miller threw a two-hitter, striking out 10.

In the second game, Charlie Flickinger and Brandon Westendorf combined to strikeout 10 Cowboy batters to outduel Colby Ruiter, who kept Clarion-Gold¿eld in the game

with eight strikeouts of his own.

Cole Miller kept up his hitting in this game, however, collecting three more of the Bulldogs’ nine.

AGWSR routs ColoNesco for regional ¿nal berth, 11-0 in four

ACKLEY – AGWSR had a huge eight-run third inning to defeat Colo-Nesco to advance to the Class 1A Region 3 Ànal against Don Bosco.

The Cougars got three hits each from Olivia Ingledue and Megan Marlette to power past the Royals, 11-0, on Friday night.

Ingledue tripled, drove in four and stole a couple of bases for AGWSR (26-6-1).

Leading 1-0 heading to the third, the fourth-ranked Cougars left no doubt to the outcome.

While the Cougars were combining for 10 hits offensively, Ashley Sicard threw a two-hitter in an all-around dominant performance. She struck out seven and walked none.

Co-coaches Brenda Drake and Scott O’Brien were left one step away from the state softball tournament, year removed from a third place ¿nish in Class 2A.

LAKE MILLS – West Fork fell behind early and had its rally fall short to be ousted early from the Class 2A regional softball tournament on Tuesday, July 8.

The Warhawks trailed 2-0 after the ¿rst inning and, after coming back to tie it in the fourth, saw the Bulldogs pull ahead for good in the bottom half of the inning.

Lake Mills tacked on single insurance runs in the ¿fth and sixth, making it a tough comeback for coach Kacy Larson’s squad.

Lindsey Peterson had her only hit of the game in the seventh, a two-run triple in which she later scored on a ground out by Chey Liekweg, but the rally ended in a 6-5 ¿nal.

Two of the ¿ve runs that Ahna Larson gave up were unearned. She struck out two and walked none in ¿ve innings of work.

Kelsey Nierengarten hit 2-for-3 with an RBI in the ¿nale.

West Fork ended the season at 12-9.

BY KRISTI NIXON HUMBOLDT – With the way the HamptonDumont softball team had been playing, none of the Bulldogs were expecting their season to end early.

But after getting the ¿rst run in the Class 3A regional softball opener at Humboldt against the hosts, the Wildcats had other plans in rapping out four hits in the ¿fth off of starting pitcher Ashlyn Hansen to take a 4-1 lead in an eventual 6-1 win over H-D on Tuesday, July 8.

It was also a toss-up after the two teams split during the regular season with the Bulldogs falling by a run at home (8-7) and beating the Wildcats by the 10-run rule at Humboldt on June 25.

However, this game never went the Bulldogs’ way, particularly on offense.

Three times H-D’s hitters hit tough foul balls that were handled by Humboldt, twice by catcher Kelsey Peters, including the ¿rst at-bat of the game.

That set the tone as coach Kelly Meader’s team managed only ¿ve hits against Avery Terwilliger, who had surrendered 19 total hits against the Bulldogs in the previous two meetings.

Hampton-Dumont opened scoring into fourth on a two-out hit by Crystal Peterson. She went from ¿rst to third on a single by Charlie Anne Myers, forcing a bad throw and allowing her to score.

But that lead was short-lived as the bottom of the order for Humboldt came through with a single, sacri¿ce bunt and then three straight doubles to chase Hansen from the game.

Kylie Voy came on and got the next two outs and pitched a scoreless sixth before the Wildcats’ bottom of the order came across again. Taylor Gidel, Humboldt’s No. 8 hitter, smacked two doubles to deep left and scored twice.

H-D’s only stolen base attempt was gunned down in the sixth inning after Mallory Wohlford singled up the middle. However, pinch runner Nadilee Eiklenborg was thrown out by Peters.

The loss ended the Bulldogs’ season at 14-12.
