Project seeks to identify local historical landmarks Project will be featured at Pioneer Craft Fair

By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register MORRISON — A project of the Grundy County Conservation Board seeks to identify local historical landmarks.

Historial Lois Stork is heading the project which seeks to identify structures that populated our landscape years ago, with the goal to identify each with a marker at the site.

“We are looking for volunteers in every Grundy County township to help identify the landmarks,” Stork said.

Landmarks could include former one-room country schoolhouses, churches, creameries, post offices, early churches, pioneer cemeteries, prairie areas ... anything that could help people identify with Grundy County history or even history be-

fore the county was formed.

Stork said a good place to begin looking for landmarks is Linda McCann’s book “Lost Franklin and Grundy Counties.”

To date, Stork has restored the Fairfield Township No. 5 Country Schoolhouse, the 145-year-old Fairfield Chapel and a 115-year-old Fairfield two-story farmhouse, all of which are located on her farmstead in Fairfield Township north of Dike.

“Books dating back to the late 1800s were located in the attic of the school,” she said. “During the 1960s and 70s the school was used as a polling place and a ballot box was found inside.”

She added that stained glass windows were found in the attic of the chapel and were re-installed along with the pews and hand-made furnishings.

“This has been a fun, interesting and rewarding journey,” she said.

“I’ve learned some amazing facts about Grundy County history.

Stork is working in conjunction with Grundy County Barn Quilts to further develop tourism in the county. She said historical landmarks

identified before Nov. 1 could be included in the upcoming Grundy County Barn Quilt Directory.

STORK WILL BE POSTED inside the Brick Schoolhouse Museum during Sunday’s Pioneer Craft Fair at the Grundy County Heritage Museum Sunday from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m.

By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER — Grundy Center citizens Tuesday voted to support community-school partnerships, electing John Gordon, president of the Grundy Family YMCA, and Bob Johanns, the incumbent Board president, to terms on the Grundy Center Community School District Board of Directors.

Johanns, who was elected to his third term, received the support of nearly 70 percent of voters while Gordon, who will replace Kelly Mathews on the Board, received 64 percent.

“I was overwhelmed to say the least,” Gordon said of the results.

“The masses have spoken, now its time to do the job. It’s my job to listen to the community, be professional and do that best for the district that I can.”

“I’m very humbled that the voters would re-elect me to that position,” Johanns said. “What I’m going to do is continue to do what’s best for the students, teachers, school and the community.”

Johanns said the results of Tuesday’s election prove that the community wants the School Board to work as a team.

“I think the voters want to make sure that we continue to do the right thing and to work together toward solutions that are best for everybody,” he said.

Gordon added that the results emphasize that the electorate supports community-school partnerships.

“Once a Spartan, always a Spartan,” Gordon said. “I’ve always been taught the team concept. That’s what I’m about.”

Retired teacher Wendy Muller received 33.5 percent support in Grundy Center while agronomist David Hoy received 31 percent support.

Voter turnout was strong in Grundy Center, with more than 27 percent of eligible voters casting ballots compared to 5.7 percent in the other three school districts whose elections are overseen in Grundy County.

ELSEWHERE, AGWSR voters in District 1 elected Steve Bartling and Gary Heetland while Nathan Vogel (District 2) and Megan Harms (at-large) ran unopposed.

Gladbrook-Reinbeck voters chose four Board members from among five candidates on the ballot and three declared write-ins. Eric Sieh, Matt Wyatt, Lisa Swanson and Anne Boyer were elected with between 58 and 60 percent support each. Linda Reardon-Lowry was fifth in the race with 49 percent support while write-ins Clark Gamble, Ryan Bru and Ashley Steven each received 45 percent support.

Both of Dike-New Hartford’s candidates ran unopposed, with Jerry Nielsen elected in District 2 and Melissa Hinde elected to an at-large seat. Just 2.7 percent of eligible voters in the Dike-New Hartford Community School District cast ballots.

All results are unofficial pending canvassing by County Boards of Supervisors.

Supervisors approve bond issuance, donation to Dike sports complex

By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register DIKE — The Grundy County Board of Supervisors Tuesday approved money for a pair of local projects.

Supervisors approved both the issuance of General Obligation Urban Renewal Refunding Bonds for the Grundy County Memorial Hospital and a donation to the Kruger-Hemmen Sports Complex in Dike.

The $15 million in bonds for the hospital will pay off the remaining balance on bonds that were used to fund a 2009 building project that included new Emergency and Inpatient

departments. The refunding will save the hospital an estimated $800,000 in interest payments over the life of the bonds.

There was no public comment on the project during a public hearing, and Supervisors unanimously approved the project without discussion.

The Board also approved a $2,500 donation to the Kruger-Hemmen Sports Complex in Dike. Katherine Ollendieck of Advanced Development Services represented the Fields2Fields Committee at the meeting and explained that the donation will show County support for the project,

which will create a trail system that will connect with the County’s system at the Grundy County Lake and Campground. That support, along with that of the City of Dike and private donors, will be used to assist the group in its application for $100,000 in Vision Iowa funding for the project. Supervisors also approved signing a letter of support for the project.

The $2,500 donation would come out of next year’s budget and would only be spent if the project is awarded Vision Iowa funding.

IN OTHER BUSINESS, Supervisors approved project plans for re-grading 16 miles of County Highways D-17, D-25 and T-13 in the northwest corner of Grundy County.

Mathy Construction, which was awarded the bid for the project at last week’s Board of Supervisors meeting, could begin work on the $2.796 million project by the last week of September. If cold weather sets in early, the project may not be completed until next year. County Engineer Gary Mauer said the roads will remain open throughout the project, though construction delays are possible.

Supervisors also approved a Sworn Statement in Proof of Loss for damage to the Sheriff’s Department radio system caused by a lightning strike. Sheriff Rick Penning said the insurance deductible would likely come out of either a building budget or his department’s budget. Either way, he said, a budget amendment would be needed.

GNB Insurance agent Phil Johnson briefed the Supervisors on the ICAP Property Valuation Program, noting that its purpose was to see if buildings were under-insured without property owners’ knowledge. Supervisors gave Johnson the go-ahead to have county-owned property inspected under the program free of charge. Penning also asked Johnson if he could research how much additional cost there would be to insuring the Sheriff’s Department radio equipment for 100 percent replacement cost.

Supervisors also approved a request from the Grundy Center High School Student Senate for use of Courthouse grounds Sunday, Sept. 13 for a Homecoming event. They also approved a Certificate of Compliance and Actuarial Certification of the county’s health care plan.

Burial followed the funeral service at the Reinbeck Cemetery. In lieu of flowers, memorials may be directed to the family. Online condolences may be left at www.abelsfuneralhomes.com.

Scot was born on August 22, 1955, in Waterloo, the oldest son of Virgil E. and Lucile (Arneson) Hunemuller. He grew up in Waterloo with his three brothers, where he attended school. He graduated from West High with the class of 1973.

During high school, Scot worked at Ridgeway Hardware. After graduation, he began working at Mid-West Motor Bearing with his father. On March 20, 1976, Scot was united in marriage to Marsheila Stelter at the 1st Lutheran Church in Waterloo. The couple welcomed daughter Angela and son Brian into their family.

Scot worked for many years as manager for ESCO Auto Supply Company in Cedar Falls and when that branch closed, he transferred to their Waterloo office as manager. He then worked for Klemp Supply in Waterloo and later purchased the business, renaming it Scot’s Supply, fulfilling a lifelong dream of owning his own successful business.

He was more affectionately known to his friends and co-workers as “Little Keebler” and “Bolt Gnome”. For those who were lucky enough to know Scot, they know that his leaving too soon will never fill the void they feel in their hearts.

Cheap Seats

Labor Day marks the unofficial end of the summer season. In a sense it’s a little sad knowing that the lazy, crazy, hazy days are gone for another year, yet in another sense it’s a bit exciting to look ahead to another fall, winter and spring season.

This is a time when I like to look back and see if the summer met what I had hoped it would ... if I had done the things I needed to as well as those that I wanted to. I have to confess that it was a little of both this year, in that my home projects for the most part are still waiting to be finished (one of these days I will have to break down and clean the garage) while I was able to do a lot of the things I hoped to.

Sunday I had to opportunity to do one of the things I had really looked forward to, which was share

By JOHN JENSEN a baseball game with Lynnette for the first time at my favorite place to see a game, Veterans Memorial Stadium in Cedar Rapids. It was perfect baseball weather (hot and humid) and a nice competitive game that we could enjoy.

As I’ve told Lynnette with any of the sports I’ve introduced her to, I suggest watching some of the things associated with the game as much as the game itself. I tell her to watch the people, enjoy the silly games between innings and laugh when the tooth fairy comes out to clean the bases at the end of the third inning. I know Lynnette will never enjoy sports as much as I do, but she seems to enjoy it enough that it’s something we can attend together a few times per year.

Fall tends to be right up there with spring among my favorite seasons of the year. It’s a time when I really enjoy my work here at the paper, with a lot of opportunities for new stories and sports that I truly enjoy watching and covering, and a time when its fun to take pictures as the trees and crops turn colorful shades of browns, yellows and reds.

Last year I rediscovered how much fun going to UNI football games can be, and I can’t wait to return this year ... probably as early as Saturday. A trip north to see some of the colors along the northern Mississippi River is probably in the cards as is, maybe, a quick trip to northeast Iowa where one of the prettiest pictures I’ve ever taken is from a small roadside park north of West Union looking down into the tiny town of Eldorado in the valley below.

• • • For most of us, Dave Bartlett was anything but a household name prior to this summer. A few of you knew of him as a senior leader at

Orchard Hill Church or perhaps through his other local connections. That, however, changed one tragic day this summer when his son and two of his grandchildren were killed in an automobile accident in Florida.

Since that day, Bartlett has not hidden. He has continued to deliver God’s message, including during the ground breaking for Orchard Hill’s new Grundy Center campus several weeks ago. Two weeks ago he spoke about the accident publicly for the first time during Orchard Hill’s annual Gathering Service at the Gallagher-Bluedorn Performing Arts Center on the UNI campus.

I confess that I didn’t realize how special a service this would be when Lynnette suggested we attend. Though we both have church homes we love, mine at the United Methodist Church here in Grundy and her’s in the church where she’s attended since childhood, we have both also enjoyed our interaction with Orchard. Knowing that it would be a larger service at the Gallagher, it was a service I looked forward to.

A couple of Lynnette’s friends saved us seats near the front of the auditorium, and I confess that I was a little concerned that we might be too near the front after a spirited opening set of praise songs. It was only after Dave was introduced that I realized he had been sitting just in front of me, silently meditating over the difficult message he was about to deliver.

Dave stepped up and began talking about The Storm, noting that everyone would go through one and that God be with us as we did. He spoke about the terrible phone call he received from his daughter-in-law Erin ... of how hearing that his son Ben, grandson Charlie and granddaughter Bailey had not survived. He spoke of dropping everything and heading with his wife to Florida within the hour.

Bartlett got real as he candidly did not speak of how God had eased the family’s grief, but of how he had led them through it.

As the Orchard Hill praise team played one of its final songs I watched Bartlett rise from his chair in front of me and walk to the piano sitting unoccupied at the back of the stage. I wondered if he would sit to play a favorite song. Yet that’s not what happened at all. That was Ben’s seat, left open much the same way a precision military flying team would leave a space open in the Missing Man Formation.

An hour after I had been concerned that I might be too close to the front of the service to enjoy it, I felt more filled with the spirit of Christ than I had in a very long time. It was an incredible feeling that I was able to carry throughout the day and even into this morning as I write these words. It’s a feeling that I truly wish I could bottle and call upon whenever I need it again.

The danger of a full freezer

By ROBBY GRAMMES Colfax Center Presbyterian Church This idea came from Ken Wingate and his excellent book entitled, A Father’s Gift.

Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist.

When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven (Proverbs 23:4-5).

A friend recently asked me this question: “Is your freezer was full?”

Like many other families I know, around our house, neither freezer nor pantry is ever full for very long.

With his question, my friend was probing the level of our neediness.

Yet, if we consider his same question at a broader level, there can be a danger in having a full freezer. Consider these words that were spoken to the Israelites of old: “Take care lest you forget the Lord your God by not keeping his commandments and his rules and his statutes, which I command you today, lest, when you have eaten and are full and have built good houses and live in them, and when your herds and flocks multiply and your silver and gold is multiplied and all that you have is multiplied, then your heart be lifted up, and you forget the Lord your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery…

Beware lest you say in your heart, ‘My power and the might of my hand have gotten me this wealth.’

(Deuteronomy 8:11-17) There is a real temptation that comes with prosperity. In fact, prosperity can be more of a faith-test than poverty. For instance, whenever you struggle; whether financially, emotionally, physically, or spiritually—you are much more intune with the reality of your need for grace and help. Prayer and crying out to God often come when a person is hurting and struggling. Prosperity, however, has a tendency to insulate people from the reality that they too are needy. So when one is prosperous, there is a temptation to think that My power and the might of My hand have gotten me this wealth. Whenever this is the case— this person believes in the power of self-sufficiency, instead of understanding their own need for God’s daily grace through Jesus Christ. At times, riches can deceive and blind to this reality. Because God has given prosperity to be both enjoyed and used for His good and the good of others, whenever someone puts their trust in their wealth, strange things happen. Strange things like this: “Their wealth sprouts wings and flies like an eagle to heaven.”

Another way of saying this is the way Job does: “The Lord gives and the Lord takes away, but blessed be the name of the Lord.” If you have a full freezer, thank the Lord for it. All good gifts come from the Father of Lights. Yet at the same time, don’t tie your joy to your possessions or wealth. According to the Bible, true joy is always anchored in the person of Christ. The Apostle Paul had both a full and empty freezer at times, but his joy was found in knowing Christ: Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Philippians 4:11-13).

ARC/PLC deadline approaching GRUNDY CENTER — The Grundy County Farm Service Agency (FSA) Office is currently enrolling producers for the 2014 and 2015 Average Revenue Coverage/Price Loss Coverage (ARC/PLC) programs.

Many producers think they were finished with signing up for these programs after they updated bases and yields for their farms and then made a selection between the PLC, ARC-CO and ARC-IC programs.

This is not the case! Producers still must ENROLL their farm(s) for both 2014 and 2015 in order to receive a payment for those years. ENROLLMENT is the actual signing of the ARC/PLC contract that contains the payment shares for 2014 and 2015.

This enrollment step determines which producers on a farm will be paid and their share of the payment if one is earned on a farm. In addition, many farms changed hands or had different operators in 2014 than in 2015 so this process determines that payments are made to the correct producers for the year they were farming a farm or had a share of a crop on a particular farm.

Once again we are using an appointment system for this sign up so please contact our office to make an appointment if you do not have one already or missed the one that was scheduled for you earlier. If you want to change your appointment, please contact our office prior to your scheduled appointment time.

We will try to have the enrollment paperwork ready for you by the day of your appointment.

The deadline to enroll for 2014 and 2015 ARC/PLC is September 30, 2015. There are no late file provisions at this time. Any producer that receives a share of the payment greater than zero on a farm in 2014 or 2015 must submit the signed enrollment contract indicating their share of the payment by that date.

Many, many producers are asking what the farm program payment will be and how soon they will get

it. The final payment amounts for the 2014 crop have not been determined at this time. That is because at this time the Marketing Year Average (MYA) prices and even the 2014 County yields that will be used to make the determination of the payment amounts for the ARC and PLC programs are not yet final.

Also, payments, if earned, are made on 85% of the farm’s base for that commodity for the PLC and ARC-CO programs. For the ARCIndividual Coverage program, payments if earned, are made on 65% of the farm’s base. Any payments that are made for the 2014 crop year will be made after October 1st, 2015 and will also be subject to a 7.3% sequestration payment reduction amount.

So remember, if you are not enrolled, you will NOT receive a payment! Even if you did the first 2 steps – base and yield update, then the election – you still MUST complete the third step, enrollment, by September 30th, 2015. If you have any questions or need more information, please contact the Grundy County FSA Office at 319-824-5416.

2015 All-State Bar n Tour scheduled for Sept. 26-27 Editor’s Note: This information is courtesy of the Iowa Barn Foundation.

Historic restored barns, throughout Iowa, will be opened to the public during the Iowa Barn Foundation’s free, self-guided, 2015 All-State Barn Tour on Saturday, Sept. 26 and Sunday, Sept. 27.

Barns will be open from 8:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. each day.

Most barns on tour have been restored with matching grants from the Iowa Barn Foundation. Other property owners received awards of distinction from the foundation for restorations they undertook themselves.

The Iowa Barn Foundation, a n a l l - v o l u n t e e r, n o n - p r o f i t organization founded in 1997 by a group of folks with Iowa roots, raises money from individuals, foundations, and corporations to give matching grants to property owners to restore their barns. The barns must be restored as closely as possible to original. The property owner must sign a perpetual easement when receiving a grant.

This is the only group of its kind in the country.

The purpose of the tour is to encourage barn preservation in the state, to teach young people about Iowa's rich agricultural heritage, and to renew pride in this unique heritage. Owners will discuss the barns and their histories at many stops. Visitors are expected from around the country. The effort has encouraged barn preservation throughout Iowa and beyond.

The tour is free although donations to support the foundation's work are appreciated.

Barns on the tour from Grundy, Butler, Black Hawk, Marshall Tama and Hardin Counties include: Hamann barn, 21461 240th Street, Grundy Center (Grundy County)- On Highway 175 just west of Highway 14. This distinguished landmark barn was

About Dike

Dedication Sunday Sunday, September 13th is the date the congregation of the Dike United Methodist Church will celebrate the completion of their remodeling project. Service time for Sunday’s dedication is 10:15am.

Following the dedication service, everyone is encouraged to stay for a

time of coffee, refreshments, and fellowship.

The Dike United Methodist Church has been undergoing a six month remodeling project. A building committee was formed which identified the needs of our growing congregation. At a church conference in October the church members voted overwhelmingly to begin this project which would allow for the remodeling of the sanctuary and education wing. Please join us for a celebration during worship, Sunday, September 13, at 10:15am as we dedicate the sanctuary.

Rainfall and gauges

By DIANE PAIGE The Grundy Register My interest in the news has expanded and now I am into recording rain fall amounts. I bought myself a small rain indicator and was thinking about where to place it according to instructions.

The first rain fall after I had made my purchase, of course happened in the middle of the night and, yes, you guessed it, my rain gauge was still in the package. I hurried to get ready for the next rain fall and did we get rain. My new rain gauge measured 5 inches of precipitation . Not being a seasoned rain collector, I decided to drive around town and look for others who might have their gauge in a visisable stop for comparison.

Look what I found. This just happens to be about the best in town. I will make great rain fall reportings only after I have done the comparison with this rain gauge family.

Dennis and Mary Coleman are the owners of rain gauge elite state of the art technology.

Al Roker would be proud.

has done an excellent job of providing a way for viewers to watch school events on the CUBE. We have had the streaming capabilities and for a while but we have not had a voice behind the pictures. That voice we now hear is that of Travis Kiewiet.

Travis took his idea of broadcasting to Miah Lehr and with his assistance and help from the school and DNH Booster club the necessary equipment was purchased.

Travis has never had experience in broadcasting but is enjoying the opportunity providing a voice to each of the events shown on the Cube. His goal is to turn the entire broadcasting over to students with an interest in broadcasting or technology and give them a real experience and to possibly persue in college.

Travis is a Dike New Hartford 1990 grad and has been a K-12 teacher in Hudson since 2000.

We remember Travis with the Waterloo Bucks organization but says now he is just a loyal fan.

Travis is married to Teresa, and father to Marley 15, Parker 13 and Taylor 11.

We can't forget his parents, Craig and Mary Kiewiet.

DNH Fans near and far are enjoying your broadcasts so keep up the good work.

Get Schooled: Creative Lunchbox Ideas I Family Features

tâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time for sandwiches to move aside, because this school year bento-box style lunches reign king on campus. Bento boxes provide not only the space for healthy and nutritious food choices, but also creativity. Isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t it time for lunch to be more fun?

Nutrition blogger and mom of two, Sally Kuzemchak, uses Lil Snappers kidsized fruit when she creates bento box lunches because they are easy for little students to hold, serving size proportionate and each 3-pound pouch provides enough fruit for lunches and snacks for an entire week. On top of that, the fruit can be sliced up for dipping in almond butter or yogurt sprinkled with cinnamon or cut up into a fruit salad, perfect for the three or four compartments in a bento box.

Studies indicate healthy eating can influence the cognitive ability and intelligence levels of students, and balanced midday meals of fruits, proteins, carbohydrates and healthy fats are best. For a well-rounded lunch, parents can fill bento boxes with fresh pasta alongside sliced carrots and grapes, taco fixings with a Lil Snappers apple or a fun and creative meal-on-a-stick to keep school-aged children satisfied throughout the day.

Preparing healthy, filling lunches shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be difficult, and with bento-box style meals your kids will never be bored. With a little preparation and recipe inspiration, crafting back to school lunches will be a breeze. For additional recipes and information, visit LilSnappers.com and look for them at your local grocery store.

By PATTI RUST The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER – Bryce Flater rushed for 246 yards and scored four touchdowns to lead Grundy Center to a dominating 42-6 win in their home opener against South Hardin Friday. The Spartans more than doubled their offensive yardage from the previous week, compiling a total of 361 yards.

“It was a great game on all sides of the ball,” Grundy Center head coach Brent Thoren said. “I’m really happy with how we have continued to progress from week to week. The entire offensive line really played well and because of that, Bryce Flater had a really nice night.”

Flater’s first two scores came in the opening quarter, the first on a 34yard run just over four minutes into the game. Later in the first Flater set up his second touchdown of the night when he intercepted a South Hardin pass to put the ball on the Spartan 25 yard line. South Hardin answered with a 73-yard touchdown pass from Ty Cook to Hunter Edgerton, and a failed conversion run made it 14-6 going into the second quarter.

Grundy Center quarterback Austin Burroughs called his own number toward the end of the second frame, capping off a Spartan drive with 13-yard touchdown run.

The Spartans continued their onslaught in the second half when Jordan Graham ended an early third quarter Spartan sequence with a diving score. South Hardin gambled on a fourth down pass midway through the third, but a Chase Boren deflection denied the Tiger first down. That Spartan possession set up another scoring drive culminating in a six-yard touchdown run by Flater.

Then with just over two minutes left in the third frame Boren would intercept a pass to put the home team in position for Flater’s fourth TD run and the final score of the night. Each Spartan touchdown was capped off by a Braidan Buhrow PAT, as he went a perfect 5-for-5 in attempts between the uprights.

On the defensive side of the ball

Grundy Center defensive players Jarrett Stoner (77), Jordan Hook (75), and Josh Kuiper (74) chase down South Hardin quarterback Ty Cook (6) in a Friday night football matchup at Grundy Center.

Grundy Center held South Hardin to less than 100 yards rushing, and capitalized on four South Hardin turnovers. Jared Krausman added an interception to the two by Flater and Boren, and Tim Knock recovered a fumble.

“Defensively we continue to create turnovers to give the offense extra opportunities,” Coach Thoren said. “Our defense has really grown up and are playing well. However, we still have a lot to work on and correct.”

IF-A/AGWSR girls fourth, boys eighth at Mason City Luna, Coulter lead Wolverines at Oelwein Invitational

By PATTI RUST The Grundy Register MASON CITY – In their second week of competition the Iowa Falls-Alden/AGWSR girls’ and boys’ cross country teams went fourth and eight respectively in sweltering conditions at the Mason City Newman Invitational. Osage took the girls’ team title and GarnerHayfield/Ventura claimed the boys’ title.

The IF-A/AGWSR girls bettered last year’s team score by 39 points.

Aubrie Fisher and Bethany Lippert paced the Cadets, Fisher placing third and Lippert fourth with less than a second separating them at the finish line. Patience Kauzlarich ran to 33rd, Katie Meyter 41st, and Tessa Van Buskirk 51st to round out the girls’ team score.

“The heat didn’t slow the girls down,” girls’ head coach Jamie Maxwell said. “Nine out of 14 girls improved their times from last week’s meet at Mayne’s Grove.

We will continue to work on pack running in order to be more competitive with team scoring.”

Seth Mazoway led the Cadet boys with a 19th place finish and Brayden Penning ran to 27th. Adam Long, Joey Berkey, and Thomas Burchfield went 56th, 58th, and 60th.

“I was pleased with how we ran at Mason City,” Cadet boys’ coach Michael Rottink said. “JV through varsity, nine out of 10 runners improved on their time from our first meet, and all but one of the returning runners ran a better time than they did at the same meet last year.”

“I was particularly impressed with how well the entire team in both races implemented a strategy we developed to attack a particularly challenging section of the course,” he said. “It was our goal for each runner to pick off a few guys through a 600 meter section and try to hold on through the last mile and a half to the finish. The JV runners - and there were only 3 for this meet - picked up 24 places total, and the varsity ended up with a net gain of 22 spots, from the beginning of that loop through the finish, which leapt us up from what would have been a 10th place finish to 8th.”

Next up for the Cadets – the Marshalltown Invitational on Thursday, Sept. 10.

By PATTI RUST The Grundy Register ACKLEY – AGWSR dropped its second game in as many outings, suffering a 40-6 loss to Hudson in their home opener Friday. Despite 228 yards in rushing, the Cougar offense managed just one successful scoring drive that ended with a Levi Stockdale two-yard touchdown run in the opening quarter.

The Cougar lead didn’t last long.

Hudson would score twice more in the third frame when Roth connected with Jackson Twait for a second time on a 25-yard touchdown pass, and Blake Hottle ran 82 yards for a score to put the Pirates up 33-6.

The final Hudson scoring drive of the night would end with a 25yard touchdown run by Hudson’s

Christian Seres in the fourth quarter.

Stockdale accounted for 108 of the Cougars’ 262 yards of offense, 82 in rushing and 26 on a pass completion to Josh June.

Brian Lee Schappert, a 22-year-old Coe College senior, was killed in the early morning hours of Friday, September 8, 1989, while working the midnight shift alone at a Cedar Rapids Kum & Go convenience store. Schappert’s throat was slashed and he also sustained numerous stab wounds to his back during a robbery at the 2743 Mount Vernon Road SE store.

Schappert’s body was found at 3:15 a.m. by a cab driver stopping to buy gas.

these questions for us.”

Anderson called it a “crime of opportunity” where someone was at the right place at the right time and Chuck Deatsch wasn’t.

Anderson said they have received tips from all overthe country — psychics and others — as to what happened and they’ve followed up on those tips.

“I have received some rather bizarre letters of people believeing that it could be related to some other thing across the country and we know that it’s not.”

The reward now is more than $40,000 for information leading to the arrest of the person or persons responsible for Chuck Deatsch’s death.

Here is what is known about the more than sevenyear-old murder of Chuck Deatsch.

He was shot April 28, 2008 at 9:55 p.m. It was a cool night with no snow on the ground. He was killed by a single gunshot and the bullet went through a window in the den where he was sitting at his computer playing a game while watching the St. Louis Cardinals on TV. “And it’s a normal day,” Anderson said. “And all of a sudden he’s killed and his wife’s life is just turned upside down and forever changed.”

Anderson declined to elaborate on other details of the case not made public.

“The last thing we want to do is jeopardize the integrity of the investigation,” Anderson said.

Anderson said anybody with information should come to the Law Center and explain what they know.

MICHAEL SCHAFFER Managing Editor Centerville Daily Iowegian The murder of Chuck Deatsch of rural Mystic in Appanoose County on April 28, 2008, is more than seven years old but it’s far from a cold case as far as Appanoose County Sheriff Gary Anderson is concerned.

“We still get little pieces of information that come in,” Anderson said. “And we’ve done several hundred interviews on the case. It’s still an active case. And still being worked and investigated. It’s not something that’s been put on the back burner.”

Anderson said a local person or persons know what happened that cool April night.

“We believe that there are people locally that have information that can solve this,” Anderson said. “We know someone, or persons, denitely have information that would solve this case. And whether they’re scared.

Whether it’s a family member or a close friend that was involved. We know that there are people out there that know about this case and just need to come forward.

“Someone out here knows. And we just ask that they come in and encourage them to come talk to us.”

Anderson said it’s important for somebody to come forward and bring this case to a close.

“It’s not only just important to the family but it’s also important to some of the people that have this information or may have been involved in the case. It’s never going to go away. It’s not going to be something that will ever be put on hold or not investigated. Every lead we receive we’re going to follow up on.

“And it’s going to wear on that person. And if they consciously sit back and realize if it was their family they would want to know. And it’s the right thing.”

Anderson said he would be willing to go anywhere in the country to meet with somebody who has information about the case.

“If somebody out there believes ... and there again, if they want to come in and explain to us that in their belief it was something else, they need to come in and explain that to us and give us those details. We don’t have a closed door on somebody’s beliefs or somebody’s explanations. They just need to come in and explain that to us and take care of it. Do the right thing.”

Chuck Deatsch, his wife Liz and Anderson said the case will remain classied as a murder case until “someone comes daughters Sarah and Kathryn as forward and explains the circumstances of seen in a billboard plea asking for his death.” information about his death.

“We’re willing to listen to anybody that has any information,” Anderson said.

Strong second half lifts Wolverines past G-R Cougars winless at Grundy Center Quad

By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register GLADBROOK – Calvin Wildeboer scored on a two-yard run with five minutes, 36 seconds remaining, lifting Dike-New Hartford to a 28-21 victory over Gladbrook-Reinbeck in a battle of ranked teams.

The Wolverines, ranked as high as No. 4 in Class 1A, trailed the Rebels 14-0 late in the first half before rallying to the lead with three straight touchdowns. G-R entered the game as the consensus No. 1 ranked team in Class A. “Holy cow that was a good game,” D-NH head coach Don Betts said.

“We told our kids coming in that you have to keep grinding, we’ll win it in the fourth quarter,” he said.

“I think our kids are in great shape, we’ve worked extremely hard. They believe they’re in great shape and we said ‘You just have to keep hammering away.’

“They’re the No. 1 team in the state for crying out loud, it’s not going to be easy. Our kids kept plugging away and banging and banging and made some plays at the end.”

G-R coach John Olson said the difference in the game was DikeNew Hartford’s depth versus that of the Rebels.

“We don’t have a lot of subs that come in, we have a lot of guys playing all the way on both sides of the ball,” he said. “I think last year we had four or five guys playing both ways, this year we have 10 guys playing both ways and that really catches up to us, especially on a heated night like this.”

The game featured a battle of returning first-team all-state running backs in Dike-New Hartford’s Trent Johnson and Gladbrook-Reinbeck’s Eric Stoakes. Johnson got the best of his Rebel counterpart, rushing for 256 yards and a touchdown on 29 carries while Dike-New Hartford’s defense held Stoakes to 70 yards on 20 carries. Thirteen of the Rebel senior’s carries went for two yards or less.

“We knew we had to contain him,” Betts said of Stoakes. “He had that one big run where he got outside on us, and he can do that every time he gets the ball so we were just trying to get a lot of people to the ball in a hurry.”

“Our guys at the line of scrimmage are very quick, they fly to the ball, we get a lot of people there,” he said. “A lot of that is just our guys being relentless getting to the ball carrier.

With its running game bottled up, G-R went to the air early and often, with senior quarterback Jake Schuman throwing for 192 yards while completing 9-of-18 with two touchdowns. More than half of his yards came on a single play, a 97-yard second-quarter completion to Matt Roeding that was the second-longest in school history.

Schumann, however, was less effective in the second half as Dike-New Hartford’s defensive pressure forced him into quicker throws.

(John Jensen/The Grundy Register photo) “In general our passing game worked pretty well tonight,” Olson said. “He had some throws he wishes he had back but when we started getting tired in the offensive line they took advantage of that, rushing him so he couldn’t go through his reads, and those are the things that we have to clean up as a coaching staff. When things like that happen we have to go to a little more short passing or when something like that happens we have to give him a bootleg outside of those guys so we can have two reads and a run.

That’s what the preseason’s for for our coaching staff, too.”

Dike-New Hartford balanced its running attack with a new Wildcat formation featuring a direct snap to receiver Connor Neuroth, who either kept the ball himself or handed it off to either Johnson or Wildeboer. Big runs out of the formation set up the Wolverines’ first two touchdowns and helped them run time off the clock on their final series.

“We tried to figure out ways to get the ball into the hands of our playmakers, Neuroth, Johnson obviously ... that’s another way for us to get the ball in their hands,” Betts said.

Gladbrook-Reinbeck held the upper hand early. After its initial drive stalled on the Wolverine 20, a blocked punt set up the Rebels’ first touchdown on a three-yard Colton Dinsdale run, his only rush of the game. One series later the Rebels were backed up to their own 3-yard line and facing third-andlong. Schuman rolled left and found Roeding wide open behind the Wolverine secondary for the score. Josh Cooley’s PAT kick made it 14-0 one minute into the second quarter.

D-NH got back into the game by

driving 99 yards after G-R punter Ty Eiffler pinned it down at its own one. The 5-minute, 11-second drive took 13 plays and featured three third-down conversions. Wildeboer’s 28-yard run from the Wildcat formation put the ball at the one and the senior fullback went the final yard on a more traditional fullback dive. The extra-point kick was wide right, however, leaving the Wolverines still trailing by eight.

The deficit did not last much longer. Neuroth intercepted a Schuman pass on Gladbrook-Reinbeck’s first play after the Wolverine touchdown and then took care of business himself, scoring on a 13-yard run from the Wildcat formation. He also scored the two-point conversion on a run from the ‘Cat, tying the game 14-14 less than two minutes before halftime.

That was where the score remained until early in the fourth quarter when Johnson got free in the Rebel secondary and raced 55 yards to the house to give D-NH its first lead of the night. G-R answered on its very next drive, marching 80 yards for the tying score on a diving catch by Dinsdale in the end zone. The senior receiver/ fullback also caught a key pass on third-and-long from the Wolverine 43 to keep the drive alive.

Dike-New Hartford needed just five plays to take the lead for good.

A 54-yard third-down run by Johnson set the Wolverines up at the Rebel 6 and two plays later Wildeboer crossed the goal line with the go-ahead touchdown.

The D-NH defense forced a Rebel punt and then the offense never gave the ball back, picking up three first downs before running out the clock.

Spartans split opening matches GRUNDY CENTER — The Grundy Center High School volleyball team opened its season with mixed results last week, going 2-1 at its own quadrangular tournament before getting swept at home by highly-regarded Wapsie Valley.

The Spartans (2-2) swept AGWSR 21-5, 21-10 and Hudson 2117, 21-11, at the quad before falling 21-14, 21-17 to sixth-ranked West Branch.

“We played with energy and passion (in the first two matches),” Spartan coach Lori Willis said.

“We served very aggressively and it paid off with a lot of aces. Alyssa (Mathews) did a great job finding the hot hitters and they sure delivered with some big swings for kills. The team was having a blast out on the court.

Going into the West Branch match we knew they were going to come after us since we have a strong record against them. They are a very senior dominated with 12 seniors on the team. They played a very solid game against us but we made too many errors. We gave them 32 out of the 42 points in the match with our errors. In a sense we beat ourselves.”

Hana Edgerton had a big tournament with 18 kills while Katie Lindeman had 16 and Landry Luhring eight. Alyssa Mathews recorded 50 assists in the tournament and Piper Johanns 37 digs.

The Spartans fell behind No. 11 ranked Wapsie Valley in the early going of all three sets and was unable to rally.

“Wapsie Valley is a team that is very similar to us,” Willis said.

“They had most of their team returning from last year and Grundy Center has a tradition of a strong program.”

Kayla Mathews paced the Spartans with seven kills in the match while Lindeman had six. A. Mathews had 20 assists and Johanns recorded 21 digs.

Willis said the Spartan defense needs to improve and that starts with blocking.

“Blocking is the first line of defense and is extremely important,”

she said. “West Branch has some tall hitters and they were able to hit over our block which you have to give the credit to West Branch there.

But when we slow the ball down with a touch block or funnel it to our defenders we need to keep our feet quiet and dig the ball. Wapsie Valley was able to abuse our block very well (Thursday) night. They made some good plays tooling it off our girls making it very tough for the defenders to dig the ball. Our back row did get some big digs when there was an open net but we must work on controlling the net so that doesn’t happen.

The Spartans also continue to look for a vocal leader to fill the role played by Riley Sents the past couple of years.

“We are still looking for the vocal leader of this group to step up with confidence and talk this team to victories,” Willis said. “We need more volleyball communication on the court. Our bench did an outstanding job (Thursday) night to provide a pulse for the girls on the court. They were communicating what was going on and they were also cheering like crazy. I am very proud of those girls they showed that we truly are a family and that family sticks together. That was the driving force to get things turned around in game three.

“Every time we step on the court we are going to get everyone’s best shot,” Willis added. “They are going to play us harder than they do against other teams,” Willis said.

“We know this and expect this but we have failed to rise to the occasion the last two matches. We are going to go back into the gym and work on finding our confidence and our mojo again. It has only been gone for two days, so I don’t think it will take us long to find it again. It is also early in the season and though we have two losses already we aren’t ready to hit the panic button yet. We just need to go back to the basics and work our way back from there.”

The Spartans played their first home match of the season Tuesday at Gladbrook-Reinbeck. They host

East Marshall Thursday before playing in the Aplington-Parkersburg tournament Saturday.
