By Andrew Shaw A cowboy on a mission came through Buffalo Center last week, as he looks to raise support for our nation’s veterans.

Tony Jones set out from Fort Pierre, SD at the beginning of June on a cross-country trip on horseback to Washington, D.C. Throughout his journey, he is stopping in the communities along his path to speak to veterans and others about what Americans can do to take care of our veterans.

“We’ve lost 704 veterans to suicide since I left,” said Jones, noting that amounts to 22 suicides a day over the course of 32 days. “I think about that every day. How can we allow that to happen?”

Jones talked with a small crowd of people during an informal gathering at the Post Office Park last Wednesday evening. “I’m no more than a messenger – that’s why I want to talk to you,” said Jones.

He asked some of the local veterans what they thought of the Department of Veterans Affairs, which has been under fire for making veterans wait long periods of time to receive health care. Laura Mastin said she thought the system should be revamped so veterans don’t have to go to a VA clinic to receive care. Larry Weaver said that the VA clinics in our area are pretty good, but they have problems in larger population centers. Jones said he thinks the VA itself isn’t the problem – it’s the result of the problem of how we treat our veterans.

Jones also talked about patriotism

Tony Jones, left, talks to local residents at the Post Office Park in Buffalo Center last Wednesday evening. and finding common ground with people of vastly different backgrounds during his trip. Jones says he served in the National Guard for a couple of years, but he doesn’t consider himself a veteran.

“If you veterans could look at yourselves through my eyes, you’d see how great you are,” said Jones.

Jones, 54, is relying on the kindness of strangers during his trip.

While he doesn’t mind if he can’t find a bed, he needs to make sure his two horses are taken care of. Duane and Teresa Cooper hosted Jones and his horses on Wednesday night during his stop in Buffalo Center.

Jones says he doesn’t have any timeframe for when he expects to reach Washington, D.C., but the destination isn’t what’s most important. “It’s about the people I talk to along the way,” he said. When he does reach D.C., Jones said he’s not interested in

talking to Congress – he wants to talk to the American people.

Jones departed from Buffalo Center for Thompson last Thursday morning, and Laura Mastin, a U.S. Army veteran, accompanied him for that leg of his trip. He plans to head into Wisconsin before going through Illinois on his way to the nation’s capital.

While Jones is spending his days talking to people, he says talk will only go so far. “You don’t have a voice if you’re not willing to back that voice up,” he said. “America has always been what we decide to make it.”

During his trip, Jones is raising money for the Semper Fi Fund, which provides financial assistance to wounded members of the U.S. Armed Forces.

An Impressive Piece of Granite!

Granite, Iowa that is!!! If we were being precisely accurate – I think we would need to say Sioux Quartzite.

That is the underlying bedrock in the area around Granite, Iowa (the Sioux Quartzite is often called Granite). It is the only area in Iowa where this stone comes to earth’s surface. It is about five miles from the community of Granite, Iowa and in a State area - Gitchie Manitou State Preserve. The community of Granite is near the Big Sioux river and also sits at the doorstep of the 3,000-acre Blood Run National Historic Landmark area.

Granite is the most northwest town in Iowa. You can’t find it on an Iowa highway map. It is a small unincorporated village. Small might be an overstatement. Granite has a population of nine people. It is located about six miles west of Larchwood, Iowa. Granite has never been a big town and probably never will be, but, it is solid as a rock. In 2012, the community celebrated its 125th anniversary – Quasquicentennial.

We could spend a great deal of time on the interesting history of Granite, how it began with the name of “Luka” and the early residents the Pettigrew family, but, this article is more about the community’s future than its past.

This little community even has its own industrial park with a recent business development called Miller loaders. This company

makes loader attachments for tractors and other machinery. It is a clean and attractive facility.

There is a re-created country store, restaurant, streets and other historical structures, tractor parts center and a collection of tractors stored and displayed for the public.

Granite has gained a reputation for running a unique threshing bee in July. During the month – particularly on weekends – there are various activities. This year marks its 32nd anniversary. The main festival is on July 16 and 17. There is no admission fee, and the event will draw over 3,000 people. A demonstration of Wheat Threshing, a kids’ tractor pull, a lunch, and a parade featuring old tractors and cars are the highlights of the Bee. Other activities occur on the site throughout the spring, summer and fall all coordinated by over 300 volunteers from the region. The key to Granite’s future is the stimulus and spark that the nine residents provide – solid as a rock!!!! Celebrate the 4th and our nation’s independence by going to see the July events. Pack up the family and travel northwest Iowa to see one of Iowa’s beautiful small towns with a future – say “hello” to a great small town group of citizens.

P.S. While you are there, take in the adjacent National Historic Landmark site of Blood Run. Soon to be Iowa’s newest State Park and possible joint venture with South Dakota.

30 Years Ago Tribune Files of Thursday, July 17, 1986 Tax levy rates used to compute property taxes in Winnebago County will be higher in most areas of the county, according to the levy rates approved recently by the Winnebago County Board of Supervisors.

An omelet brunch will be held from 9 a.m.-1 p.m. on Thursday, July 24, at the Masonic Temple in Buffalo Center. The event is part of the Buffalo Center Crazy Daze. It is sponsored by The Eastern Star, The Nain Lodge, and the Iowa Egg Council. Tickets are $3.00 for adults and $2.00 for children.

40 Years Ago Tribune Files of Thursday, July 15, 1976 Fifteen members and one guest of the Buffalo Center Community Betterment Club heard a report concerning expenditures for the July 5 fireworks calling for an outlay of $898.00 by the club. This, however, is not a final figure. Attendees dined on scalloped potatoes and ham, and were served by Harold and Lenora Eisenmann.

Work has been under way here for several weeks as the construction workers and their equipment began installing the huge new concrete storm sewer culverts along the path of the old highway.

50 Years Ago Tribune Files of Thursday, July 14, 1966 A severe rain and wind storm struck here early Friday morning,

July 8, and created a considerable amount of damage. A metal roof blew off a cattle shed at the DeVries Sale Barn. Several trees were blown down on the Verne Mathison farm.

Several small buildings north of town were also blown down. Tree limbs came down and left the west side of town without electricity for two hours.

school (grades 7-12) will be held at St. James in Forest City, from 7 p.m. to 9:15 p.m., Sunday, July 31 through Thursday, Aug. 4. Students from all six parishes are invited to attend.

Cost of the program is $5 per student, with a family maximum of $15.

Totus Tuus, a Latin phrase meaning “Totally Yours,” was the motto of Saint John Paul II. The Totus Tuus summer program is dedicated to sharing the Gospel and promoting the Catholic Faith to children and youth through evangelization, catechesis, Christian witness, and Eucharistic worship. This weeklong program assists parents and parishes in the evangelizing and catechizing of their children by supplementing the work they are already doing.

The structure and content of Totus Tuus is concerned not only with teaching the Faith, but also igniting the hearts of the team members and the young people they encounter.

The result has been the formation of young adults who continue to dedicate themselves to the Church’s mission of evangelization.

To register for the Totus Tuus program, or for questions, contact the Archangels Cluster Faith Formation office in Forest City at 641-585-4856.

Geraldine Wessels, 84 of Buffalo Center, died Thursday evening, July 7, 2016, at the Timely Mission Nursing Home in Buffalo Center. A funeral service was held on Monday, July 11 at 10:30 a.m., at First Reformed Church in Buffalo Center, with Pastor William Peake officiating. Burial was in Olena Mound Cemetery in Buffalo Center.

Geraldine Jeanette Wessels, daughter of Harry and Hannah (Gerzema) Kettwick, was born February 13, 1932, in Kossuth County. She was baptized and confirmed at the First Reformed Church in Buffalo Center.

Geraldine attended country school and then attended and graduated from Buffalo Center High School in 1949.

On March 30, 1953, Geraldine was united in marriage to Jake Wessels at First Reformed Church in Buffalo Center. Together, they farmed west of Buffalo Center, with Geraldine also working at Green Giant and at the Timely Mission Nursing Home. She resided on the farm until June 18, 2010, when she moved to the Timely Mission Nursing Home because of health concerns.

Geraldine was a member of the First Reformed Church serving as Sunday School treasurer, teaching Sunday School and Catechism classes, she sang in the choir, as well as she was a member of Ruth Circle with whom she still attended up to her death.

Geraldine was a devoted wife, mother and grandmother. She helped Jake on the farm as well as working jobs off the farm. She also volunteered at many church, 4-H and community activities. She never missed watching the Twins baseball games, no matter how their season was going, doing word find puzzles, as well as the many activities at the nursing home; she managed to get her picture in the Tribune many times at different things going on there. Geraldine also loved attending the many sporting events, band performances, 4-H and FFA events, and church activities her children and grandchildren were involved in.

She is survived by: her three children, Bryan Wessels of Buffalo Center, Doreen David and her husband Darrell of Eddyville, and Bruce Wessels of Thompson; seven grandchildren, Adrienne, Blaine, and Tanner Wessels, and Derek, Lucas, Austin, and Zach David; and three great-grandchildren, Rilee, Caden, and Brooklyn.

Susan Langerud, landowner discussed chicken litter piles placed on the SW and the SE of her home. Due to the wind, the stench is unbearable most days. There are also many flies.

Langerud wondered what could be done about the piles and the length of time they are there before spread out over the fields. Adam Cook and Bud Jermeland, Farm Nutrients discussed Iowa laws and how they are following the guidelines. Cook has been to the Langerud home and will try to heap the pile together to make less surface area. Cook also stated if heaping the piles together did not work and there was enough complaints they would move the south west pile and combine the piles into one pile on the southwest side. Jensvold asked why the chicken litter cannot be stored at Rembrandt.

Cook stated the EPA will not allow the manure to be stored on site at Rembrandt, but will allow the chicken litter to be piled on the farm field.

Supervisor Jensvold suggested Rembrandt build new storage buildings. Supervisor Durby wondered if there is some sort of tarp to put over the piles to control the odor. Durby also asked if there was a product to spray over the pile to seal it. Dale Helgeland, landowner will be taking the issue to the State Capital to try and get the laws changed as to where the litter piles

can be placed and how close to a home they are put. Ted Gassman, Iowa State Representative discussed various ways to try to cover the piles and asked for it to be moved into one pile.

Upcoming public trap shooting dates

Jenna Govern hits a double to bring in Rachel Schutter for an RBI last week against Rockford.

Jessica Govern tags a runner out at home plate during last Tuesday’s regional contest at Rockford.

Ladies come up just short in season finale at Rockford

The North Iowa Lady Bison finished their softball season with a pair of narrow losses, starting with a 5-3 loss while hosting Eagle Grove on Friday, July 1 for their conference finale.

“Their pitcher struggled early, and we were able to score two runs in the first inning,” said Lady Bison Head Coach Chad Hinders. “An RBI double by Cassidy Sachs drove in Jessica Govern for the game’s first run. Rachel Schutter followed with a single to plate Krista Schutter for a 2-0 lead. That lead held until the top of the fourth, when the Eagles used two hits, two walks and a hit batter to tie the game up at two.”

Both teams scored runs in their portion of the sixth inning.

“In the Lady Bison sixth, Mackenzie Bengtson singled to drive in Rachel Schutter to tie the game. Both teams were retired without any harm in the seventh,” said Hinders. “In the pivotal eighth inning, the Eagles once again put a two-run inning together, aided by a couple of Lady Bison errors, two walks and a sacrifice fly. The Bison could only muster a two out double by Jenna Govern in the bottom of the eighth to fall by a score of 5-3.

“We continue to improve, but at critical times of the game when we need to field the ball cleanly or get a timely hit, we are unable to do so,” said Hinders. “I like our enthusiasm and support for each other. We need to learn from our mistakes and work to correct them. There needs to be more focus on the process; not rushing and getting ahead of ourselves in certain situations both on offense and defense.”

Offensively, Jessica Govern and Rachel Schutter each collected three hits. Cassidy Sachs and Macken-

Rachel Schutter brought home three runs for the Lady Bison with a home run last Tuesday at Rockford.

zie Bengtson each contributed two hits. Sachs pitched, giving up three of earned runs, walking six, hitting three, and she struck out four Eagle batters on the night.

Last Tuesday, the Lady Bison headed to Rockford for the first round of the regional softball tournament. This was their third match of the year with the Warriors, and the Lady Bison showed they had learned a thing or two from their two prior losses, but Rockford was still able to squeak by with a 6-5 win.

“This opening round tournament game followed the same lines as how our last week and a half of games

have went,” said Coach Hinders. “I feel we have been playing competitive softball lately, and the games have been interesting. As I said before, it has been nice to see the enthusiasm out of the girls during this stretch. Tonight was no different. For the third time this season, we faced Rockford. After each contest, we made improvements, and this one rang true to form. The unfortunate part was we fell a couple runs short of gaining the victory.

“In the contest, most of the fireworks came in the second and third innings,” said Hinders. The Lady Bison opened the scoring in the second, as Rachel Schutter drew a walk, a bunt by Taylen Hinders advanced

Schutter to second, and a double by Jenna Govern drove in Schutter for a 1-0 lead. Rockford answered with three runs in the bottom of the second to take a 3-1 lead.

In the third inning, the Lady Bison reclaimed the lead on a threerun home run by Rachel Schutter.

Her home run scored Rachel Hassebroek, who singled, and Krista Schutter, who drew a walk in her at bat. Once again in the bottom of the inning, Rockford scored three runs to take the lead again, 6-4. From there, Cassidy Sachs did not give up another run. The Lady Bison loaded the bases in the sixth but were unable to score. In the seventh, North Iowa once again tried to rally for the victory. Krista Schutter’s fly ball to left field was dropped, she stole second, and scored on Cassidy Sachs’ double. With the tying run on second and no one out, Rockford’s pitcher was able to retire the next three Lady Bison batters for the win.

Rachel Hassebroek, Taylen Hinders, and Jenna Govern each tallied two hits in the contest. Cassidy Sachs pitched and gave up five earned runs, three walks, one hit batter, and struck out two Warrior batters.

“Hopefully we use the last half of the season to see the potential we have going into next season,” said Coach Hinders. “We were young, with no seniors on our squad and a lot of first time players in various positions in the field. With a year under our belt and some work in the off season, the outlook for next year is a favorable one for us. The goal is to turn this year’s 8-15 record into one that is in the double digits in the win column, a finish in the top half of the conference, and a run deep in the post season next year.”

Bison finish regular season with three losses

The North Iowa Bison hosted their final conference game of the baseball season on Friday, July 1, as they faced Eagle Grove. The Eagles shot out to an early 4-0 lead in the first inning, as they went on to take the contest, 13-5 over North Iowa.

“This was a tough game to see go into the lose column, because the entire team felt like this was a winnable game based on the first meeting we had at Eagle Grove,” said North Iowa Head Coach Blake Baker. “The Bison were able to record several hits, we just had issues getting runs across the plate – only getting five runs from eleven team hits; four of those eleven hits were doubles. Noah Paulson toed the mound, were he only allowed three hits the entire game. One would think that only allowing three hits would insure a victory for your team, but our fielding errors gave the Eagles what they needed, as well as our pitching staff walking eight batters.”

Isaiah Walk led the Bison with three hits, including two doubles, while Jordan Boekelman had two hits.

The Bison had a good start in their next contest on Tuesday, July 5 at

Clarion, but the Cowboys went on to take a 16-5 lead to end the game in the sixth inning. This was the first of two non-conference, non-district games to close the regular season.

“Our hitting was really good this game, but when you leave double digit numbers of baserunners on the bases, it is hard to win a game,” said Coach Baker. “The Bison are putting this game behind us and focusing on our first round district game.”

The Bison headed to Graettinger the following day, Wednesday, July 6, for their final game of the regular season against GTRA. The Titans pulled away after a 10-run sixth inning to take the win, 12-2.

“I was very happy that we competed with the Titans for the first six innings, going into the bottom of the sixth inning tied 2-2 with the Bison having the momentum,” said Coach Baker. “However, a single fielding error and many, many good hits from GTRA allowed them to score ten runs in bottom of the sixth and win the game before the end of the sixth. The Bison had some great hits as well, but we just couldn’t hold in at the end of the inning for the victory.”

With the regular season over, the

Bison were set to face West Hancock at Britt on Tuesday, July 12 for their first round of the district tournament,

beginning at 7 p.m.

A family of barn swallows took a rather unconventional approach to making use of this bird house, which is located at the home of Carroll and Leona Van Hove on Mill Road in Buffalo Center. Instead of building a cozy nest inside the house, the birds opted to build a towering nest on the sloping roof, using mud they found in a puddle down the street. Carroll says he’s never seen anything like it. Leona says they’ve had two bird houses at their home for about three years, but this is the first time one of them has gotten any use.

Applicants needed for Monarch habitat project With the declining number of Monarch butterflies migrating north through the central United States, USDA is offering an incentive to agricultural producers in Iowa to help increase Monarch breeding habitat.

Iowa agricultural producers who want to increase habitat for Monarch butterflies on their land now have opportunities to receive funding for conservation practices that attract Monarchs. The Monarch butterfly population has declined in recent decades and is currently undergoing a status review for potential federal listing.

Iowa is one of 10 states along the Monarch’s core migration route and primary breeding range. As part of the Monarch Butterfly Habitat Development Project, the effort is focusing on plantings of milkweed and Monarch nectaring forbs in wetlands and other marginal lands.

Area students graduate from Iowa Lakes Community College

Carly Main, Taylor Steinfeldt, Dylan Voortmann and Tanner Weaver, all of Buffalo Center, graduated from Iowa Lakes Community College on Friday, May 13 at the Estherville campus.

Carly graduated with an associate degree in Applied Science, Veterinary Technician.

Taylor graduated Summa Cum Laude and as a Presidential Scholar with an associate degree in Applied Science, Environmental Studies.

Dylan graduated Cum Laude and as a Presidential Scholar with an associate degree in Applied Science, Agriculture Production Technology.

Tanner graduated Cum Laude with an associate degree in Applied Science, Business Administration and Management.

This project is administered through USDA’s Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS).

“We aren’t asking Iowa farmers to take land out of crop production,” said State Biologist James Cronin, with NRCS in Des Moines. “We are

asking rural landowners to consider odd areas or unproductive areas – big or small – that would make a difference to the population.”

USDA is a partner in the Iowa Monarch Conservation Consortium, which includes conservation organi-

zations, state agencies, companies and Iowa State University, who are working together to research options to establish and maintain Monarch breeding habitat best suited for different types of land use scenarios in the state. “This is an ‘all hands on deck’ effort to start establishing habitat now,” said Cronin.

A sampling of eligible conservation practices through the project includes: brush management, conservation cover, field borders, and prescribed burning. The application deadline for the Monarch Butterfly Habitat Development Project is August 5. Visit your local NRCS office to ask about developing a plan to address Monarch habitat or other resource concerns and financial assistance opportunities.

This is a weekly feature highlighting some of Iowa’s unsolved homicides in the hopes that it will lead to new tips and potentially help solve cases. The project is a partnership between this newspaper and other members of the Iowa Newspaper Association.

HAZEL MARIE REIMANN Hazel Reimann’s body was found Tuesday, September 2, 2008, by her sister Helen. Helen had gone to Hazel’s southeast Watrous Avenue house to check on her sister. There, in the home’s kitchen, she found a bloody, horrific crime scene leading to the basement, where she discovered her sister’s lifeless body in a pool of blood.

Police said Reimann had been beaten and stabbed. There were no signs of forced entry, and though a suspect and motive were unknown, detectives said that Reimann had put up an extraordinary fight; in addition to the blood in the kitchen and on the walls, she had broken six fingers trying to fend off her attacker.

Officials believed Reimann’s murder occurred the night before her sister found her body, and though they questioned many neighbors, couldn’t come up with any solid leads. Four days later, with no suspects in the case, Polk County Crime Stoppers offered a $1,000 reward for information leading to an arrest.

“Even the smallest details — any observations neighbors may have had on that day, if they saw people sneaking around the house or anything like that — is going to be really important for us,” said Des Moines police Sgt. Vince Valdez. Police remain hopeful that eventually, someone will come forward with new information and give them a fresh lead.

HAZEL MARIE REIMANN | Age: 87 | Died: Sept. 2, 2008 Location: Des Moines Find out more about this and other unsolved homicides at www.IowaColdCases.org.

Anyone with information on Hazel Reimann’s unsolved slaying should contact the Des Moines Police Department at (515) 283-4864 or Polk County Crime Stoppers at 515-223-1400.

Hunting with Heroes honors Wou nd Warriors and local veterans for fif ed th year

President Theodore Roosevelt once said, “A man that is good enough to shed blood for his country is good enough to be given a square deal after afterwards.” This is one of the quotes that local non-profit organization “Hunting with Heroes” has adopted as a mantra and as a purpose for their annual event that honors veterans from near and far each year around the Lakota Area. On November 6-9, the group hosted its fifth group of Wounded Warriors from Camp Lejuene, NC for friendship, fellowship and recognition of the sacrifices that our military makes for us each and every day.

In 2011, Bernard and Jason Becker founded “Hunting with Heroes”- a non-profit organization managed through the local American Legion Post 21 as a way to honor young men and women that fought in the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. The event started as a way to honor young servicemen and women injured in battle but grew into an event that honors the dozens of local veterans from the area, as well. Through the generosity of local volunteers and supporters, this year’s Hunting with Heroes was once again made possibl event was arguably the best one yet. e this year thanks to volunteers who offered assistance and land for hunting to the their visiting Wounded Warriors from Camp As in the prior four years of the Lejuene, NC.

Hunting with Heroes event, as

Corps this year to find Marines who had been injured in battle and who were in need of time away from rehabilitation of their physical and emotional injuries from the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts. This year, a total of seven Purple Heart Recipients were welcomed to the area for the weekend.

Four Marine attendees made their first trip for the event: Major Steven Taylor, Captain Andrew Yeary, Staff Sgt. Eric Bruland and Sgt. Jonathan Smart. In addition, three participants from past years came back to assist with the logistics and execution of the event as alumni members.

“Having the alumni members present at the event the last couple of years has been a great improvement, as they are able to relate to our new marine attendees and make them feel immediately at ease,” said Bernie Becker. All seven of the Marines received wounds from recent wartime efforts in Iraq and Afghanistan and are representative of the thousands of Marines who have been killed or wounded defending the freedom of our country.

This year’s event started off with a very special welcome to Iowa, as the Wounded Warriors were warmly received by Iowa State men’s basketHEROES to page 11

Ladies enjoy a nice night on the town

Many shoppers got their first look at one of Buffalo Center’s newest establishments , The Tin Lily, during Ladies Night Out last Tuesda y, Nov. 10. Carol Wilson of The Rusty Rose recently expanded her operations into the new space on Main Street, located in the former Leibrand TV & Appliance store.

She also has a wide assortment of vintage chairs and other furniture in the basement level of the buildin g.

The Bison Senior Center hosted a variety of vendors and crafters during Ladies Night Out on Novem ber 10, including Thrive, Scentsy, 31, Tupperware, Origami Owl, Keep Collective, Wildtree and the Heartwarmers Quilt Guild.

Retired U.S. Air Force Master Sergea nt Dennis Murra delivered the address at the annual Veterans Day Program held at North Iowa High School on Wednesday, Nov. 11. He said that veterans often consider their time in service to be one of the most defining experie nces of their lives. Murra spoke about the recent Operation LZ event held in Forest City for veterans of the Vietnam War, and he addressed some common myths about that war, noting that the majority of servicemen and women who took part in that war were volunteers, rather than draftees. He also talked about ways that young people can uphold the traditions of this nation on Veterans Day and on every day of the year, such as flying the flag, volunteering in the community, and saying “thanks” to those who have served. “If you feel that being an Americ an is a title and not a responsibility, then this nation may not survive,” said Murra. “We need everyone to serve in whatever way they can.”
