H-D board OK’s 5 summer projects

Commencement exercises were held at CAL Community High School on Sunday afternoon. NICK PEDLEY/ HAMPTON CHRONICLE

BY NICK PEDLEY The Hampton-Dumont Board of Education unanimously approved a list of summer projects during a brief meeting Monday night. Most of the projects will improve entry areas and parking lots at the district’s four school buildings. The total price tag for the five-item list is around $50,000. Three of the projects will be completed at North Side Elementary for around $43,000. The gravel parking lot will be improved, a bus loading area will get attention, and the north entrance to the building will receive updates. The projects coincide with other improvements planned at North Side this year to accommodate kindergarten’s move to the building next fall. The board also discussed technology updates at North Side. The school is planning multiple improvements to modernize the building’s technological infrastructure over the next few months, and officials will continue scheduling those updates in the months ahead.

The public is invited to New Hope Parish UMC’s Memorial Day dinner on May 25, from 10:30 a.m. – 1 p.m., at the Dumont American Legion Hall. The menu includes beef burgers, ham sandwiches, potato salad, baked beans, pie, ice cream, other assorted desserts, lemonade and coffee. The dinner is free will offering.

Council sets timeline for library wall repairs

to 17 seniors

BY NICK PEDLEY Friends, faculty and family members said goodbye to the CAL High School Class of 2015 during an hour-long commencement ceremony Sunday afternoon. Seventeen students comprised this year’s senior class. Members of CAL’s adminstration commended the group for their hard work and wished them the best in their future endeavors. “Today is an important milestone for our graduates. It is a time to rejoice and a time to celebrate a job well done,” said Principal Scott Striegel. “It’s also a time to look to the future and take to heart the message in the class motto: ‘We have come a long way, but not half as far as we will go.’ “ Science teacher Jane Halladay and art instructor Patty Reed were this year’s guest speakers. The duo urged the graduates to take risks and “think outside of the box.”

“Seniors, the sky is the limit. Buy the ticket and take the ride,” said Reed. “Go have adventures, make new memories, tell new stories. I’ll always remember you.” Halladay echoed Reed’s sentiments and reminded the students how lucky they were to receive a world class education at CAL. “You’ve been given a precious and very loving gift,” she said. The program also featured a final vocal performance by senior members of the choir and a slideshow that included photos from the class’ 13 years together. Commencement wrapped up with the traditional mortarboard toss, hand shakes and hugs. “May the lessons learned at CAL allow you to pursue your dreams, and may your dreams bring happiness,” said Striegel.

BY NICK PEDLEY A repair project scheduled for the curved brick at the Hampton Public Library inched forward following a decision at last Thursday’s city council meeting. The council unanimously approved an agreement with SEH, Inc. for future engineering services related to the project. The agreement, which will cost the city around $14,600, establishes a set timeline for repairs and allows SEH to oversee architectural services during the project. “We’re one step closer to making this project a reality,” said City Manager Ron Dunt.

Despite slow down, bird flu still posing hazards for local producers

EARLY DEADLINES Legal Notices ............... Tuesday, 5 p.m.

BY TRAVIS FISCHER Bird f lu continued its spread across the state last week, but poultry producers working together with local, state and federal agencies may be winning the fight against the outbreak. Since April 13, the Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship (IDALS) has found 52 proba-

ble cases of avian influenza across 14 counties, 44 of which have been confirmed, affecting more than 25 million chickens and turkeys in the state. Three of those cases have been found in Wright County egg laying facilities. Although initial estimates from IDALS stated a potential 6.8 million birds in Wright County may be affected, confirmation testing has

Emergency declaration still in effect A state of emergency is still in effect throughout Franklin County to protect local poultry producers from the threat of bird flu. There were no known cases of the highly pathogenic virus in the county as of Tuesday morning. Officials made the emergency declaration on May 8 to free up funds for prevention strategies aimed at slowing the bird flu’s spread, but no producers had asked for assistance as of Monday, according to Emergency Management Coordinator Thomas Craighton. Emergency officials are still asking residents to avoid traveling near Franklin County’s six commercial poultry facilities, all of which are located in the western half of the county. However, all county roads remain open around each site.

lowered that number to 4.7 million across the three locations. The USDA is working on-site at these locations to contain the spread of the virus, which has many people asking the same question: How do you get rid of 4.7 million birds? “Some of these populations can be a real challenge,” says Dr. TJ Myers, Associate Deputy Administrator for Veterinary Services within the Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service. While techniques for euthanizing birds may vary from site to site, Myers says that one of the methods used is hypercapnea, commonly known as carbon dioxide poisoning. The infected birds will be placed in a sealed cart and exposed to carbon dioxide, bringing about a quick death. Myers couldn’t give an estimate of how many birds can be euthanized at once by this method, but euthanizing millions of anything is a lengthy procedure regardless of the method.

BY NICK PEDLEY Students at St. Paul’s Lutheran School in Latimer were visited by a unique four-legged guest during a special biology lesson on May 13. Hampton veter inar ian Zach Vosburg showed off his pet goat, Strider, and taught students about the numerous aspects of animal care. The students, many of whom have been learning biology basics, were able to ask Vosburg questions about animals and relate the information to their classroom lessons. Genetics, gestation periods and cell development were all discussed during the special hands-on ses-

sion. Vosburg shared interesting tidbits about Strider that made some students giggle and others curious about the young goat. “His favorite treat is stale donuts. He also loves to eat things like muffins, biscuits and toast,” said Vosburg. “He really likes people and is calm, cool and collected. My staff has spoiled him enough to where he’ll just sit on your lap and fall asleep.” Vosburg gave students an overview of medical exams and other normal duties performed by veterinarians. He sees a variety of animals on any given day, which keeps him on his toes. Vosburg said the diversity was one of his favorite things about being a vet. “Different animals are designed differently, and we have to know exactly how they work,” he said. “That’s one of the cool things about this job. We don’t get to ask our patients whether they’re sick or not, we just have to know.” See GOAT: Page 3

My mother wore white Editor’s note: As Franklin General Hospital nears its 100 th anniversary later this year, a committee of individuals is researching the hospital’s rich history and will share pieces of the story in coming months. Here, former Hampton resident Dr. Milt Sernett shares memories of his mother, Wilma, who attended the school of nursing and spent her entire nursing career at the Lutheran Hospital/FGH. A book of FGH’s history, including this and other stories, will be available this fall. Watch for details. In honor of my mother, Wilma (Berghoefer) Sernett, I would like to offer a few reflections about her many years wearing white working as a nurse at Hampton’s Lutheran Hospital, now Franklin General Hospital. She took her professional career seriously. One indication of that is a note she wrote in her copy of “A Reference Hand-Book for Nurses,” published in 1927. She inscribed the book “Miss Wilma Berghoefer Luth. Hosp. June 3, 1928, ‘alumni.’” She added the maxim: “Ethics is the science of human endeavor to do right.” In 1925 she entered the training program of the Lutheran Hospital School of Nursing affiliated with the Hampton hospital. As part of her training, she took summer courses at Iowa State Teachers College in Cedar Falls. In order to qualify for licensing as a registered nurse, Wilma also took courses in the nursing program at the University of Iowa. Mother received her certification as a registered nurse in 1928. Initially, she did private duty work, caring for area residents in their homes. The 1940 census counted mother among those living in the nurses’ residence in town. It was a large

structure that had once been the dwelling of T. J. B. Robinson, a United States representative from 1922 to 1932. She worked at what we called the “old hospital” until 1971, when new facilities went up east of Hampton. For most of her career, mother was on night duty from 11 p.m. to 7 a.m. on the maternity ward of the old hospital. She told stories of having to assist with births or, when a doctor did not arrive on time, deliver babies. I have a copy of one of the Delivery Record volumes and can recognize the names of several of my high school classmates who gave birth while mother was on duty. One grateful father, a farmer as I recollect, tried to give mother his watch as a token of his appreciation for her assistance with a difficult birth. After our father died in 1950, mother went back to work full time, putting the four of us (Milton, Laureen, Gilbert and Dorothy) to bed before going to the hospital. She returned in the morning to see that we had breakfast and got off to school. Mother’s tenure on the “baby f loor” was long enough that she assisted with the births of several generations. People would come up

to her in public with their adult offspring and introduce a son or daughter whom Mother had helped bring into the world. When the Hampton Centennial came around in 1970, she rode the hospital f loat wearing her nurse’s uniform. After the new hospital was built east of Hampton, mother worked in long-term care there until her retirement. I suppose there were emotional rewards with witnessing the birth of a baby that were unlike those of caring for adults, some of whom were reaching the Biblical equivalent of their “four score and 10.” Mother retired in March 1975, after 23½ years of continuous service and approximately 37 years of nursing work altogether. She passed away at the “new” Franklin General Hospital on July 28, 1988. • About the author Dr. Milton C. Sernett was born in 1942 in Hampton, the eldest of the four children of Wilma and Lee Sernett. He graduated from Hampton High School in 1960 and in 1968 from Concordia Theological Seminary, St. Louis. After receiving his Ph.D. in American History in 1972, Sernett taught for three years at Concordia

Full lineup of area Memorial Day programs May 24-25 Multiple Memorial Day services are planned throughout the area on Sunday and Monday. Local residents should be cognizant of inclement weather, which could force changes to the program schedule. â&#x20AC;˘ Hampton Memorial Day services will kick off Monday morning with a parade starting downtown and ending at the cemetery. The parade forms at the intersection of First Street Northwest and Second Avenue Northwest at 9 a.m. and leaves promptly at 9:30 a.m. The program begins at the cemetery monument once the parade arrives. A mix of music, prayer and speeches will greet service goers at the cemetery. John Krull will read General Loganâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Orders, and Aidan Carr will deliver â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Gettysburg Address.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Taps,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;America the Beautifulâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Star Spangled Bannerâ&#x20AC;? will also be performed. Mondayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guest speaker will be Kelly Steffen, a history teacher at Vinton-Shellsbu rg High School. Steffen has more than 10 years of experience teaching American history, world histor y and world religion to high school students. Steffen has Steffen made progressive connections between her classroom lessons and local veterans

at Vinton-Shellsburg. The Vinton VFW honored Steffen for her work with a Recognition of Appreciation and she also received the Class Act Award for organizing the annual Veterans Day assembly. In case of rain, the parade will be canceled and the program will be held at the Church of the Living Word auditorium at 10 a.m. The Hampton American Legion and Veterans of Foreign War posts are looking for volunteers to help put up the Avenue of Flags for Memorial Day. Those interested in helping should meet at the cemetery on Thursday, May 21, at 5 p.m. The flags will be taken down on Tuesday, May 26, at 5 p.m. â&#x20AC;˘ Coulter/Latimer/Alexander Services in western Franklin County will kick off on Sunday, May 24, at the First Reformed Church in Alexander at 1:15 p.m. The program will proceed to the town cemetery for a 2 p.m. service. Coulter will hold a service on Sunday at 3 p.m. in the cemetery. The program will be canceled in case of rain. St. Paul Lutheran Church in Latimer will hold a service at 9 a.m in the cemetery on Monday. In case of rain, the program will be moved to the church. â&#x20AC;˘ Dows area A program will be held at the Popejoy cemetery at 9 a.m. on Monday.

ronmental sampling in the facility to make sure we have no virus lingering there before repopulating,â&#x20AC;? said Myers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The real challenge with all of that is that there are so many facilities that got affected in such a short period of time.â&#x20AC;? Repopulation may take longer than hoped, depending on whether or not the virus continues to spread in the area. Even though a facility may be cleaned, neighboring facilities still pose a risk to new birds. So far, none of the sites with confirmed infections have been cleared for restocking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have to be cautious about restocking too soon because you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to get back in the same situation,â&#x20AC;? said Myers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If we see additional cases, that just drags the time out because you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to put susceptible birds back into an area that has a lot of ongoing infection in the neighborhood.â&#x20AC;? Although the virus first arrived in Iowa in April, scientists have been tracking its progress across North America since last December. Ge-

netics analysis discovered the virus came from Asia and spread through wild flocks during migration season. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The initial cases we were seeing seemed to just pop up here and there. That argues for wild birds contaminating the environment,â&#x20AC;? said Myers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since then we have found some anecdotal evidence that we have probably had lateral spread from farm to farm.â&#x20AC;? While it seems likely that migrating birds are responsible for carrying the virus across the continent, â&#x20AC;&#x153;lateral spreadâ&#x20AC;? is what may cause the virus to infect neighboring facilities once the infection has been established. Myers says they are still investigating exactly how lateral spread happens, but there are many possibilities. Infected birds can spread the virus through fecal, oral and nasal secretions, any of which can contaminate ponds and fields. The virus can even be carried by the wind on a speck of dust. Area poultry producers have made great efforts in stepping up their bio-secu-

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been doing it for various Freedom Rock projects when he has free time, which is nice of him,â&#x20AC;? said Gladys Fanny, Post 658 treasurer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Freedom Rock is for the vets and I think he just wants to help.â&#x20AC;? Eventually, the rock will be painted with a patriotic theme by Ray â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bubbaâ&#x20AC;? Sorensen II. The artist has already painted Freedom Rocks in 28 counties throughout the state and he hopes to have one in all 99 counties someday. Franklin County is currently on a waiting list with 53 other counties. Post 658 sent Sorensen an application and $1,000 down payment last September and began fundraising efforts shortly thereafter. The total cost of a Freedom Rock typically runs between $5,000-$6,000, which covers paint, labor, travel costs and hotel expenses. Sorensen painted 12 Freedom Rocks last year alone. He only paints the rocks from April to October and is currently booked for the next four to five years, according to his website. Fanny said the extended timeframe would give Post 658 plenty of time to get Franklin Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rock situated at its final resting place. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure of a date for when it will get moved, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not concerned if it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen for a while,â&#x20AC;? she said. In the meantime, Post 658 members will continue fundraising efforts in hopes of reaching their $7,000 goal. Any additional money will be used to landscape the area around the Freedom Rock. Franklin Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s reservation could get bumped up on Sorensenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s list if other counties arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t ready when their turn comes. So far, Post 658 has raised around $2,500. If you would like to contribute, send donations to Gladys Fanny, 109 5th Ave. SE, Hampton, IA 50441; or drop them off at First Citizens National Bank in Latimer.

BIRD FLU â&#x20AC;&#x153;With a large house of two and a half million or so, it does take quite a while to work your way through that,â&#x20AC;? he said. The carcasses have to be disposed of once the birds are euthanized. There are a variety of options available from composting to incineration to burial, but the method used largely depends on each situation and the resources available. â&#x20AC;&#x153;All of that work is really site specific depending on the facility and the number of birds,â&#x20AC;? said Myers. In other states, the birds may be taken to landfills, but Myers says that method has not yet been approved in Iowa. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working with the state to see if we can have that as an option.â&#x20AC;? From quarantine to disposal to disinfection, the USDA creates a â&#x20AC;&#x153;flock planâ&#x20AC;? to determine what needs to be done and how they plan on doing it. This includes establishing contracts to clean up affected facilities and monitoring them until they are deemed safe for repopulation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Once that cleaning and disinfection is done, we like to do envi-

GOAT Vosburg gave an overview of animal anatomy. He brushed on the respiratory system, digestive tract and other vital areas that make animals tick. The vet also shared multiple anecdotes from his career. He described one story in which a dog ate a Doc Martin boot, which required surgery after the sole got stuck in the poor poochâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gut. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We could tell it was a Doc Martin because the logo was still visible in the rubber,â&#x20AC;? said Vosburg. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all part of the job. Occasionally we have to open them up because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll eat stuff they shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.â&#x20AC;? The story garnered some shrieks and shriveled noses from the audience, but they enjoyed the vetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visit nonetheless. Vosburg encouraged the students to study their biology books and pursue a career in science if they were interested. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I grew up with animals. I al-

ways had an inkling I was going to be a vet,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a whole slough of jobs you can do as a veteri-

narian that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily revolve around animal care.â&#x20AC;?

rity to minimize any potential avenues for the virus to spread. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It may not be just one. It might be any number of factors,â&#x20AC;? said Myers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You just have to think of the environment as potentially contaminated.â&#x20AC;? On the up side, it appears that the spread of the virus may be starting to slow. Warm weather helps kill the virus in the environment, so it will have fewer avenues to spread as the days get hotter. When combined with quarantine measures at infected sites and heightened bio-security at non-infected sites, the worst of the outbreak may be over. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Over the last week weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve seen the number of new cases plateau, so that steep climb in the number of cases we saw in April seems to have flattened out, so thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a good sign,â&#x20AC;? said Myers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really hopeful that starts to tail off very quickly.â&#x20AC;? Myers says that his organization will be spending the summer learning as much as they can about the virus before fall. There is concern of a second outbreak happening as migratory water fowl move back across the continent. One way to prevent future outbreaks may be vaccinating new birds against the virus. However, that option is not without its complications. So far there are no existing vaccinations that are a good match for this new strain of virus, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s unclear if a vaccine would be effective. Vaccinations also have trade implications. Market forces may make vaccinations counter-productive to producers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are giving consideration to possibly using a vaccine, but we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t made that determination yet. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of consideration that needs to go into that,â&#x20AC;? said Myers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think our immediate goal is to continue doing the eradication activities that we have been doing.â&#x20AC;? In the immediate future, Myers says that their next big challenge will be getting the currently infected facilities cleaned and disinfected, then making a determination as to where and when they can repopulate.

The board of education proposed a package that would have created what Widen described as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;performance pay-type of approach.â&#x20AC;? The program would have offered incentives to teachers that improved student achievement in certain targeted areas. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That was very important to the board, but they couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t agree on a package,â&#x20AC;? Widen said. The board also approved the 2015-16 calendar at the special meeting. Classes begin on Aug. 25 and end on May 24, 2016. The board unanimously approved contracts for various administrative

and support staff during a separate meeting on May 11. A 3.25 percent salary increase was unanimously approved for Scott Striegel, Amanda Heiden and Frank Patrick, as was a 3.25 percent hourly wage increase for Gloria Lawler, Eugene Miller, Karen Waage and Bradley Waddle. The board also approved various contracts for extracurricular instructors during the May 11 meeting. All but three positions are filled for next year. CAL officials are seeking applicants for an assistant football coach, assistant volleyball coach and assistant girlsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; soccer coach.

state in the 800-meter run Friday. Five Years Ago May 19, 2010 Franklin County Conservation is aiming to open the Rolling Prairie Trail project up for bids by mid to late fall with development of the trail in sight six months to a year from now, conservation Director Jason Gooder said Tuesday. The Department of Transportation recently granted approval for Franklin County Conservation to release concept statements or pre-preliminary plans for the trail, which the conservation department submitted in April. The trail will extend along defunct railroad tracks from the Franklin County Wellness Center in eastern Hampton to Coulter in western Franklin County, according to Gooder. Lois Huntington donated about $25,000 in shares of stock to the Harriman-Nielsen board. Board members standing with Huntington are Berry Johnson, Mary Marquard and Charlie Brown, Treasurer. Morgan Katz from Hampton-Dumont High School and Lindsey Bruns from CAL Community High School were honored as members of the 2010 ‘Best of the Class.’ Looking Back is compiled weekly by Joyce Schomburg.

Barbara Jean Straw, 92, of Loveland, Colo. died on Wednesday, April 29. A memorial service will be held at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 23, at Crossroads Church in Loveland, Colo. Barbara was born on August 5, 1922 in Hampton, to Delos Wells and Lillian Timmerman Mott. She grew up on the family farm in Hampton. She rode horses, played basketball, and Barbara Straw enjoyed spending time at the familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cabin on Leech Lake in Northern Minnesota.

Barbara enlisted in the Navy during World War II. She was a WAVE from October 1943 to December 1945, stationed at Quonset Point, RI.

The menagerie was down-sized when they moved to Colorado Springs, but the family always had one or two cats and at least one Labrador completing the family. After retirement, Barb and Gene moved to the Wet Mountains in Southern Colorado. They lived in their mountain home until Gene suffered an accident in 1998. They then moved to Greeley, Colorado to be closer to family residing in Loveland, Colorado. Though Gene passed away in February of 1999, Barbara remained very active into her 80â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s, continuing to garden, vacation with family, and looking after her grandchildren.

Statewide cost-share available for water quality practices Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey announced last week that funds are available to help farmers install nutrient reduction practices. Practices eligible for this funding are cover crops, notill or strip till, or using a nitrification inhibitor when applying fertilizer. The cost share rate for firsttime users of cover crops is $25 per acre, no-till or strip till are eligible for $10 per acre and farmers using a nitrapyrin nitrification inhibitor when applying fall fertilizer can receive $3 per acre. Any far mer not already utilizing these practices will receive priority consideration for this assistance. Farmers that have used cover crops in the past may be eligible for $15 per acre for cover crops. Farmers are eligible for cost share on up to 160 acres. The funds will be made available in July, but farmers can immediately start submitting applications through their local Soil and Water Conservation District office.

Farmers are also encouraged to visit their local Soil and Water Conservation District office to inquire about additional opportunities for cost share funding through other programs offered at their local SWCDs. The Iowa Department of Agriculture and Land Stewardship received $4.4 million for the Iowa Water Quality Initiative in fiscal 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. In the last two years this program has been available, over 1,400 farmers put in new nutrient reduction practices on over 144,000 acres. The state provided about $3.4 million in cost share funding to help farmers try a water quality practice for the first time and Iowa farmers provided at least another $3.4 million to support these water quality practices.

year teaching. I’d hate to think of the mistakes I’ve made this year, because I know I have.” Two other parents expressed support for Pecinovsky and the band – Dawn Vallery on behalf of her son, Christian, and Cynthia Krull on behalf of her son, John. The two women said their sons understood the difficulties Pecinovsky faced due to low participation numbers and other hurdles, and they appreciated her efforts and leadership.

Ultimately, Krull believed future improvement hinged on the H-D student body. “Students are going to make the biggest difference, and they just have to choose to do that,” she said. The school board did not comment on the situation during the meeting. Pecinovsky was in attendance and also remained silent.

BOARD In other business, the board approved a $130,000 budget amendment to cover expenditures incurred from the North Side renovation project. According to superintendent Todd Lettow, some of the architect and construction manager fees are being paid out of this year’s budget in order to keep the project on schedule for the summer, which prompted the amendment. Prior to the action items, a group of parents expressed polarized opin-

ions about the direction of the band program during an emotionally charged public comment period. Linda Buchanan read a prepared statement on behalf of her daughter, Rebecca, and other unnamed band students that directly criticized firstyear director Sara Pecinovsky. “My classmates and I are scared for the future of our program. We demand excellence every day as our tradition says, and we have gone almost a year without it,” Buchanan wrote.

The students claimed Pecinovsky wasn’t fulfilling the duties of her job and urged the school board to intervene. The students said they had a list of specific examples backing up their allegations and promised to send copies to the school board. Despite the vocal criticism, multiple parents showed their support for Pecinovsky and the band program. Liz Carr, whose son, Aidan, plays the drums, was hopeful about the future. She pointed towards the

concert band’s recent I Rating at the Iowa High School Music Association’s Large Group Festival as a reason for optimism. Carr, a middle school teacher, also criticized the students’ accusations and felt they were out of line. “What honors or awards have they not received this year that they would have received if we had a different band director?” she asked. “A first-year teacher makes mistakes. This is my thirty-second

Starting the Gears to Choosing Careers FIRST CAREER AND TECH DAY A SUCCESS AT H-D When adults look back at their time in high school, most of them would probably tell you that they wished theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d known then what they know now. Some of them would have made different choices regarding post-secondary schools and programs while others decided early what they wanted to do for a living and are content with that choice. The beauty of high school and even college for some, is that there is still time to make choices, and even change those choices several times by experimenting with course selection. Think you might want to be a doctor? Make sure you try Anatomy. Wonder if woodworking is the career for you? Sign up for Basic Construction. Still, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard for high school students to imagine themselves as adults in the real world, working the same job every day. Thanks to the Hampton

Thanks to these professionals for giving their time to H-D students! Military Sgt. Poncy, National Guard Sgt. Bobby Martin, Army Sgt. Fortune, Marines Technology Pat Palmer Jeff Chrisiansen Gabe Johanns

community, as well as surrounding communities, high school students at H-D got to explore several careers that interest them during the high VFKRROÂˇV Ă&#x20AC;UVW HYHU &DUHHU DQG Technologies Day. The Tech Cadre, a group of high school teachers who meet regularly to brainstorm and implement ways for students to become more independent with technological skills, came up with the idea of bringing in people from the community who represent different occupations and visiting with students who are interested in those respective careers. Nicki Prantner, a member of the Tech Cadre, explains, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We wanted students to have a chance to see the variety of opportunities right here in Franklin and Butler counties. We are so thankful for the community members that were willing to share about their work experiences and answer questions

for our students.â&#x20AC;? The day went off without a hitch, thanks to the meticulous planning of the committee. Prep for the event began months in advance. They (the Tech Cadre) started by asking each student to take a survey about professions or careers that interest them. Then, judging by the results of those surveys, they began reaching out to local businesses and inviting them to be featured speakers. When all was said and done, almost 60 business owners or professionals took time out of their workday to be a part of Career and Tech Day. But it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t stop there. Since there was an overwhelming number of people who were willing to lend their time, each group of professions were represented by different branches of that career to give students an idea of all of the different things they could do within that occupation. For example, in

the classroom that students visited if they were interested LQ JRLQJ LQWR WKH Ă&#x20AC;HOG RI HGXcation, there was an administrator present, a curriculum director, a teacher, a literacy coach, and a para educator. In the sport and exercise group WKHUH ZDV D Ă&#x20AC;WQHVV LQVWUXFWRU a sports radio broadcaster, and an athletic director. Students had unique schedules for the day. Each one rotating only to the rooms that had the occupations that they expressed an interest in. During each section, most of which had only 10 to 13 students per, professionals explained what their job is, what education they needed to perform that job, the positives about their job, the negatives, and their pay. Students were allowed to ask questions throughout thee presentation. When the belll rang, it was off reer on their into the next career dividualized schedule. Sophomore Bella Siems enjoyed

her experience, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t decide what I wanted to do as a profession, but when I got to go to these sessions they provided information that other sources couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t.â&#x20AC;? In addition to career breakout sessions, each H-D high school student attended a session on cyber-bullying put on by the police department, and a session led by High School Attendance Liaison, Joel Heuer on A.L.I.C.E. (the most up-to-date protocols for an intruder posing a threat in the building). Students were also given the opportunity to visit technology sessions that gave them tips on Google apps, IMovie, and coding by H-D staff members Cynthia Krull and Amy Kangas.

H-D’s Caitlyn Freese hits an overhand shot while volleying in her singles match on Tuesday, May 12. KRISTI NIXON/ HAMPTON CHRONICLE

Not enough time ƒ Bulldog girls’ tennis falls short against Webster City HAMPTON – Time crunch got the best of the Hampton-Dumont girls’ tennis team. With a band concert looming for a player, a doubles match had to retire and a couple of close losses in singles and doubles play led to a 6-3 loss to Webster City on Tuesday, May 12. Still, for coach Mark Drier and his Bulldogs, it was a good effort. “Great night for the Bulldogs,” Drier said. “(We) registered three wins, most since the team win over Grundy Center; great wins at Nos. 4 and 5 singles for (Gabbie) Tielke and (Caitlyn) Freese. (Bella) Siems had to retire and forfeit No. 2 doubles match, just not enough time.” Freese, at No. 5 singles, finished things up for H-D by using patience, particularly on her serve to outlast Megan Carpenter by an 8-4 score. She led 4-1, saw the match go to 4-3 before she closed it out. Along with Shaylin Beyer, who ended her No. 6 singles match with a win when her opponent had to retire because of injury, Freese nearly got two wins but went from a 6-all score

The Coca-Cola 600, the longest race of the NASCAR season, takes place this Memorial Day weekend by returning to Charlotte Motor Speedway. This speedway currently hosts two of the biggest races on the NASCAR schedule. With cars lining up three and four-wide through 24-degree banked turns, you can bet there’s going to be a lot of excitement as 43 furious machines storm down the 1.5 mile track. Nearly 180,000 people will attend the race. Darrell Waltrip is a fivetime winner of the Coca-Cola 600 and so the inner perimeter road around the speedway was named in his honor. Last week’s winner, Denny Hamlin, finished 22nd in last year’s race.

A skillful move with only three laps left in Saturday night’s nonpoints Sprint All-Star Race, allowed Denny Hamlin to deliver the first victory in the non-points showcase event. As he drove into Turn 1 to start Lap 97, with Kevin Harvick glued to his bumper and ready to make a run at the $1 million first prize, Hamlin moved up a lane in the corner and took Harvick’s line away, causing Harvick’s No. 4 Chevrolet to lose momentum. “It was more defense than anything, but it turned into offense for me,” Hamlin said. “Harvick kept getting closer and closer, and eventually he gets to that right rear quarter panel, and your race is done. Initially, I was looking in my mirror, and I knew it was going to be a defensive move to take his line.” Hamlin led the field to the green for the final segment and stayed in front the rest of the way, beating Harvick to the finish line by .823 seconds.

TO STATE Second is enough for AGWSR’s Lippert

ƒ Soph distance runner qualifies for state in 3 events BY KRISTI NIXON NORTHWOOD – It could be discouraging leading the way for most of a distance race only to be passed in the final lap. But don’t tell that to AGWSR’s Bethany Lippert, a sophomore who likes being the front-runner, win or lose. And the Cougars’ dis-tance specialist used it to her advantage, qualifying for the Class 1A state meet in both the 1,500, 3000 and running a legg on the 4x800 relay during uring state-qualifying at Northwood thwood on Friday, May 15. “I think, for sure, the 4x8 because we cut down on our time a lot,” Lippert said of her chances on qualifying. “Hopefully, the 3,000 and pretty much for sure the 1,500. “It’s kind of disappointing, but I’m the one who likes to run in the

lead. It gives me confidence. Sometimes they get me in the end, but I think overall it helps my time to just stay in the lead as long as I can.” Lippert ran in the Class 3A state cross country meet in the fall for Iowa Falls-Alden, which she says should help her. “It gives me confidence that I’ve run in 3A and this is 1A, so that helps a lot,” Lippert said. “It will be good running at state.” Also r unning on the 4x800, which comes into the state field with the eighth-fastest fiel tim time in Class 1A, are her ol older sister, Jessica Lipppert, Maddie Brandt and Eri Siems. She joins the other three who ran to 111th in that event a year ago, only six-tenths of a seconds behind the time they recorded. They join Rachel Frazier, who will be making a return trip in the shot put for the Cougars, who won the event at Northwood with an effort of 35 feet, 3 inches. Frazier just missed the finals in 2014 in finishing 10th. She enters the field as the 10th-

best shot. Making its first trip will be the 4x400 team of Addison Johnson, Katie Gast, Maddie Brandt and Eri Siems, which qualified despite finishing third. They go in as the 19th-fastest time at 4:23.95. Also not new to the state scene among the boys is two-time Class 1A state runner-up in the shot put, senior Clay Meinders. His effort of 54 feet, 11 inches was more than enough to win it and give him the top seed. This time, he’ll be joined by his younger brother, Caleb, who went for 49-8.5, good for the sixth best throw going in. AGWSR also gained another state qualifier in the throws when sophomore Nathan Karsjens third-place discus finish was still good enough to make the field. He went for 141-9, seeded 17th overall. The Cougars’ 4x800 team, one of the favorites going in led for much of the race until being out-kicked at the end by North Butler. Still, the foursome of Alec Stahl, Sully Hofmeister, Austin Reckward and Mason Eilderts’ time of 8:30.34 was the ninth-fastest qualifying time.

WAVERLY – All four Hampton-Dumont boys’ tennis entries in the Class 1A district tennis tournament on Friday, May 15 were ousted in the first round. Competing in a tough district at Waverly, coach Jim Davies’ team left without a team point in the seven-team field. Both singles players, Jonny Victor and Isaac Shelton lost their matches to Waterloo Columbus opponents, 6-0, 6-0. In doubles play, Spencer Clark and Edgar Romo lost 6-0, 6-0 against Waverly-Shell Rock’s Luke Willis and Ryan Willis. Lastly, Israel Ruiz and August Bollhagen played tough, but lost to Aplington-Parkersburg’s duo of Nick Ellis and Morgan Uhlenhopp, 6-0, 6-1. Advancing to the state meet out of the district were Clear Lake’s Sam Jones as well as Ryan Hageman of Decorah in singles while both Decorah doubles’ teams advanced. The Class 1A state singles and doubles tournament will be held at Byrne’s Park in Waterloo May 29-30.

Back to state

ƒ Few newcomers join SHR, Mason at Drake Stadium STORY CITY – Waiting is hard to do. But when one Class 2A state-qualifying track meet was postponed because of weather, that is exactly what many Hampton-Dumont’s athletes had to do after competing in miserable, rainy conditions on Thursday, May 15. Especially interminable for the Bulldogs’ boys shuttle hurdle relay team, which is making a return trip although two of the team members are new. Add to that the fact that one of the returnees was competing in the event for only the third time this season. But Coleton Barz, Ben VanHorn, Evan Koenen and and Cole Miller, finishing third, got the word that their season-best time of 1 minute, 1.36 seconds was the 21st fastest time out of 24 qualifiers, they were on their way. Koenen, recovering from a broken ankle suffered in the Bulldogs’ final playoff game against Dyersville Beckman only recently started running hurdles again. The girls’ shuttle hurdle relay team also had to wait for word. Although the Bulldogs finished fourth at Story City, Nadilee Eiklenborg, Dakota Sliter, Candela Castro and Cassy Miller’s clocking of 1:10.89, another PR, was the 20th fastest time in 2A. “I am so excited for the girls,” H-D girls’ coach Nikki Donnenworth said. “They had to overcome quite a lot to perform as well as they did. I don’t think the weather even

affected them a whole lot, but all four of them had been battling a serious flu. “We were missing runners to illness at conference so we didn’t fare as well as I would have liked, but they responded at districts, qualifying in five events.” A few for H-D didn’t have to wait at all, finishing either as district champion or runner-up to secure state berths. Madison Mason became a backto-back state qualifier in both the discus and shot put with a championship and runner-up spot in each event, respectively. Her throw in the discus was the 15th seed at 115 feet even. Mason’s effort in the shot put was 36-1.5. Freshman Patty Teggatz will be making the trip in the 3,000 as she put on a kick in the final lap to pass South Hardin’s Claire Damon to win the event in less than half a second. Cassy Miller secured a spot in the 100-meter hurdles in 16.55 and will be in the fifth of six preliminary heats in the event. “Madi Mason was steady as usual,” Donnenworth said. “The shuttle ran the best race they have all season, breaking their previous record and Patty Teggatz showed true guts coming from behind to win the district title in the 3,000. “And Cassy Miller ran the race of her life in the 100-meter hurdles.” The final qualifier for coach Dan Aalbers’ boys squad was Bo Brass, who was the runner-up in the open 400, securing the final qualifying time. Osage, which had perfect conditions on Friday on its make-up date, had four state qualifiers in that event.

BY DEB EISENTRAGER Is it getting hard to read? Does the type seem to be getting smaller? We can help you with that problem. Did you know the library has a large print collection? We have more than 300 large print books in our collection. Our library receives 15 books every month from the Decorah Public Library as part of their rotating collection. The Decorah Public Library Large Print Library was established in 1993 from a large print collection donation by the Northeast Iowa Library Service area. It currently contains over 10,000 volumes and is circulated to over 150 libraries throughout the state of Iowa. Funding for new purchases for the collection is made possible through the Library Services and Technology grant in conjunction with Iowa Library Services. The books are shipped free of charge by the United State Postal Service. The mailing is “Free for the Blind and Handicapped”. Volunteers and library staff from Decorah send out

over 25 boxes of books a week. We are fortunate to be part of this program. Every month we receive five titles in each of the following categories: westerns, romance and mysteries. We get to keep the titles for three months. The program allows us to have new titles available for our patrons without spending a cent. This allows us to purchase more books in other areas of the library. We receive books from popular authors, such as Debbie Macomber, Nora Roberts, Stuart Woods and Louis L’Amour. This is a great service for our library and I hope more patrons will utilize it. UPCOMING EVENTS May 20 – Lego League, 2-4 p.m. May 25 – Closed for Memorial Day.

Law enforcement agencies are ramping up efforts to keep Iowa’s roadways safe during the Memorial Day holiday. Recent crash data shows that motorists are buckling up more during the day than at night. The Click It or Ticket campaign across Iowa and the United States is focusing on heightened seat belt enforcement 24-7. A more defined focus of seat belt enforcement will take place between the evening/ overnight hours of 6 p.m. and 5:59 a.m., due to the significant number of violators and fatal crashes during this time period. Over the last 10 years, Iowa has averaged 5.3 traffic fatalities during the three-day Memorial Day holiday weekend. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),

@IHSMTA

nearly half of the 21,132 motorists who were killed on our nation’s roadways in 2013 were not wearing seat belts – that number jumped to 67 percent for males aged 13-15. Buckling up in the back seat is just as important. Half of all those riding in the front seat that were killed in crashes in 2012 were unrestrained, and 61 percent of those killed in back seats were unrestrained. Every fatality is more than just a statistic; it is a life, a family member or friend. The Iowa Department of Public Safety (DPS) and the Governor’s Traffic Safety Bureau (GTSB) want you to remember that the single most effective way to reduce fatalities in motor vehicle crashes is to wear a seat belt every day, on every trip.
