The City of Creston has partnered with Waste Management, Inc., to bring a curbside recycling system to residents and a breath of environmentalism to the community.

Beginning July 9, Crestonians will have their recyclables collected directly from their property every other Friday by Waste Management technicians, rather than having to haul the materials away themselves.

The initial pickup will be on a Saturday, though, because the Fourth of July falls during the first full

Creston Elks Lecturing Knight Sean Jolly learns about the newly purchased spike strips from Creston Police Officer Matt Carr Wednesday at Union County Law Enforcement Center. The spike strips were purchased through a Creston Elks Lodge grant, thanks in part to Elks member and Creston Police Sergeant Eric Shawler.

Thanks to the Creston Elks Lodge, Creston police officers now have another tool to use.

Creston Police Department now has access to spike strips, which are accordion-style strips with hollow spikes attached at the top. Spike strips are used primarily during highspeed pursuits.

“When deployed, they expand out over a lane of traffic or multiple lanes of traffic,” said Elks member and Creston Police Sergeant Eric Shawler. “The little sharp tubes, or

tires of a vehicle that’s being pursued.”

Shawler applied for a $2,000 g r a n t through the Elks Lodge and received it for the police department to Shawler purchase the strips. Creston Police Department now has four spike strips available to use for pursuits or mutual aid for other agencies. The strips were about $500 each.

“We want to try to protect

we’ve had in the last month,” Shawler said. “We’ve had several high-speed pursuits in a matter of a few days.”

Notable pursuits include Kane Farlow of Creston, when he led officers on two pursuits in three days in May, and Peter Wiley of Creston, who was pursued by officers from within city limits to a field northwest of town in December 2013.

“They’re important for law enforcement in general.

They’re just another tool for the officers to utilize to safely do pursuits, which are inherently the most dangerous things we have to partici-

Convicted lottery manager argues Iowa court appeal DES MOINES (AP) — The attorney for a former lottery official accused of fixing jackpots in several states argued Thursday that his client’s conviction last year on fraud charges should be thrown out.

Eddie Tipton, the former Multi-State Lottery Association computer security director, appealed his July 2015 convictions related to fixing an Iowa Hot Lotto game in 2010, which resulted in a 10-year prison sentence. He is free on bond during the appeal.

Tipton’s attorney, Dean Stowers, told a three-judge Iowa Court of Appeals panel that evidence at Tipton’s trial was not sufficient to support the convictions.

Iowa prosecutors have said Tipton bought a Hot Lotto ticket in December 2010 with the same numbers that he had programmed into the lottery computer a month earlier. They said he then gave the ticket to a friend in Texas who prosecutors say reached out to APPEAL | 2A

Nation’s smallest nuclear plant closing OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — The Omaha Public Power District voted Thursday to shutter the Fort Calhoun Nuclear Station, which is the nation’s smallest nuclear power plant.

The board decided it was in the best financial interest of the utility and its customers to close the plant by the end of this year, the utility said in a statement after the vote. The plant sits on the

Missouri River across from Iowa and is about 15 miles north of Omaha.

“This was a difficult vote and one we did not take lightly,” said Mick Mines, the board’s chairman. “The industry is changing, and it is imperative that we make strategic decisions to better position the district in the future for all our 365,000 PLANT | 2A

customer-owners.”

Among the factors cited in the decision to close the plant was the low price of natural gas, which makes it a cheaper way to generate electricity, and a federal energy plan that doesn’t offer carbon-free generation credit for existing nuclear plants.

The board also noted the recent early retirement of several other U.S. nuclear power stations.

and served her country until 1962. Her first duty assignment was at Treasure Island, San Francisco, California. In 1961, she was reassigned to the Washington, D.C., area.

On Dec. 26, 1961, Joan married Guy Brace at Zion Lutheran Church in Sandusky, Ohio. The family moved back to San Diego, California, in 1975 until Guy’s retirement in 1977, when they moved to Corning. Joan worked various jobs before becoming a legal secretary for the Len Leonard Law Office. She also was custodian for the U.S. Postal Service in Corning for nine years.

Joan was a member of Redeemer Lutheran Church in Corning, serving as secretary for three years. She also served on the Human and Legal Rights Board for Midwest Opportunities and Kid Care Council.

or prevent a pursuit to begin with.”

Officers have had the strips more than a month and completed training with them.

They will do yearly trainings to maintain usage of the strips. The strips themselves will last several years, and the spikes, which allow tires to deflate at a steady rate, are replaceable if the strips are used.

Local officers have not used spike strips in the past.

“This is why we get the grants, because anything we can help with in the community, that’s the whole basis of the Elks,” said Dave Koets, Creston Elks Lodge exalted ruler. “We help with anything we can help with in the community, and those grants are what make us able to do that.”

According to Ver Meer, there is no way to prevent a pursuit, but officers are taught when it is safe or unsafe to pursue a subject. The same goes for deployment of the spike strips: there are criteria that must be followed to maintain safety of the of-

RECYCLE:

“Fort Calhoun’s closing will take about one-quarter of the state’s clean electricity off the grid,” group president and CEO Marvin Fertel said in a written statement. “It will no longer prevent the emission of 3.4 million metric tons of carbon dioxide, the equivalent of putting 800,000 cars back on Nebraska’s roads.”

Once closed, a nuclear plant must undergo a decommissioning process to remove or decontaminate materials and equipment that have been exposed to radioactivity. The Nuclear Regulatory Commission requires decommissioning to be completed within 60 years of a plant’s closing.

Cleaning up the site after its closure is estimated to cost $1.2 billion, the utility said.

have terminated the pursuit on any of those times in the past, it wasn’t going to to stop the manner of which the individual was driving,” Shawler said. “We just want to try to keep the community safe and eliminate 90-mile-an-hour pursuits throughout the community.”

“This gave us the opportunity to give the police department something they don’t have in their budget to buy,” Koets said.

The Creston Elks Lodge has also given grant money to Creston Fire Department for the purchase of flashlights for volunteer firefighters and bicycles for the annual Easter egg hunt and Creston Police Department to maintain the police K9.

Shawler is currently looking into getting grant money to maintain the McKinley Park and VFW baseball fields.

“The Elks are geared toward helping the community and helping serve the community by using grant money to help with whatever resources that are needed,” Shawler said. “The Elks share the same goal as we do as Creston Police Department.

The purchase of these are to keep the community safe, to try to save a life.”

and was promoted to computer information security director in 2013. The nonprofit association is operated by 37 mostly state-run lotteries to oversee picking numbers for various games and other lottery game administrative functions.

As an employee, Tipton was prohibited from playing the lottery in Iowa; he was fired after his January 2015 arrest.

Assistant Iowa Attorney General Louis Sloven said Thursday that plenty of evidence was presented showing Tipton bought the winning lottery ticket and made de-

liberate efforts to conceal his identity and construct an alibi. Sloven said it’s significant that Tipton lied to FBI investigators about knowing his friend in Texas and told them he was not in the Des Moines area when the ticket was bought although cellphone records show he was.

Tipton’s lawyer also argued for overturning the conviction because prosecutors waited more than four years to file charges, outside the three-year statute of limitations. He said the clock started ticking in December 2011, when officials knew something was unusual with

the Hot Lotto ticket, though Sloven argued it wouldn’t have begun until October 2014, when investigators released the video of the ticket purchase and people recognized Tipton.

Tipton faces a second trial in Iowa on ongoing criminal conduct and money laundering charges alleging he manipulated computers to fix lottery games in Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma and Wisconsin, and then worked with others to cash the tickets. A previously set July trial date has been delayed and a new date not yet scheduled.

single-stream system, all recyclables, including newspaper, cardboard, plastic and aluminum are all placed in a single cart for recycling.

“With this, there won’t be the containers at Fareway anymore,” Taylor said.

“Those will disappear so the residents will need to use their home recycling containers to offset that loss.”

The new bins will be provided by Waste Management at no cost to residents. As the company’s brochure states, “by recycling everday items,

tons of raw materials, time, energy, and money are saved.

Waste Management looks forward to keeping Creston as clean, and green, as possible in 2016 and beyond.”

The schedule for pickup of recyclables will divide Creston into a Green route and Gold route and will correspond with the existing garbage removal schedules of residents.

Residents whose garbage is collected on Monday or Wednesday will have their recycling collected on Fridays of the Green weeks, which fall

on the first and third weeks of the month. Those whose trash is collected on Tuesday or Thursday will have their recycling collected on Fridays of the Gold weeks, which fall on the second and fourth weeks of the month. The first collection will be Saturday, July 9 for Green weeks and Friday, July 15 for Gold weeks.

A detailed collection schedule for the upcoming year, including all holiday weeks, is contained within Waste Management’s introductory mailing.

Informational brochures with details of the recycling program, as well as a calendar of the pickup schedule are expected to hit mailboxes of residents next week.

“We’d like people to hold onto the flyer,” Taylor said.”

Put it on their bulletin board at home, on their desk or on the refrigerator so they’re aware of the program and how it’s supposed to work.”

The brochure will also be on the City of Creston’s website by the first of July.

If residents have questions not answered by the mailing, they can call phone numbers provided within it.

“If they need something, they can also stop by the office and we can walk them through it,” Eads said.

According to the brochure, a green 96-gallon recycling cart with a yellow lid will be delivered to each resident the last week of June.

The brochure outlines what types of items can be recycled and stresses the importance of making sure only the correct materials are placed in the recycling carts.

“Let’s keep it clean,” said Eads. “Recycling is recycling and trash is trash.

We’re going to be looking in every can because we’ve got to handle it that way.

Hopefully everything goes smoothly.”

Aside from separating recyclables from trash, no sorting is required of residents because the new program is a single-stream recycling system. Under the

New view on repair work

Dear Heloise: I’m writing to you about using the internet for SOLVING PROBLEMS. My son, who is a homeowner, has made several videos on home and vehicle repairs to help those in need.

He has received many “thank-yous” from people telling him how he has saved them money. He also has monetized them, and after so many videos, he is actually getting paid for his work.

Just saying, if one needs help, check out videos on the internet. It can be a very profitable endeavor. – Shirley M., Springfield, Ill. With the internet available to so many, and so many ideas and hints floating out there, “monetizing” (which, in simple terms, is a way of turning a talent or skill into money) is definitely an option for people who think and do like your son.

If you’re interested and would love to work from home, start with a web search on “monetize.” This may be the door that opens to a brighter future! – Heloise

If they have to put it in the overhead bin, remind them to put it in the bins near where they’ll be sitting.

I’ve seen people load their luggage in the front bins and then walk all the way to the back of the plane to sit. I don’t understand the reasoning behind this. Maybe they think they’re saving time, since it’s the last thing they’ll pick up before deplaning.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who’s observed this kind of boarding procedure, so I have to ask, What’s to prevent someone else from walking off the plane with their luggage? – Terrence in Vermont LIBRARY HINT Dear Readers: If you’ve not been to the library lately because you go only when

Horoscope For Saturday, June 18, 2016 ARIES (March 21 to April 19) It’s hard to crank up a positive attitude today, and that’s the truth. Fortunately, this harsh time is over by tomorrow.

Whew!

TAURUS (April 20 to May 20)You might be disappointed with your cash flow, assets or how little you have in the bank.

Perhaps an arrangement about shared property equally disappoints you. Whatever the case, basically, this is peanuts, right?

GEMINI (May 21 to June 20) Avoid important discussions with partners and close friends, because they might depress you because people are critical and discouraging today. Run away! Run away!

CANCER (June 21 to July 22) Someone who is older or more experienced might be on your case at work today. (You need this like a fish needs a bicycle.)

Just be polite. Better yet, avoid this person in the first place.

LEO (July 23 to Aug. 22) Romance is disappointing.

Social occasions might be canceled, or they’re a flop.

Oh yeah, it’s that kinda day.

Do your best to soldier on.

Tomorrow is a better day.

VIRGO (Aug. 23 to Sept. 22) Discussions with parents or older family members will be depressing. People are cautious, stingy and critical. Yikes!

Just get through this day, because tomorrow is much better.

LIBRA (Sept. 23 to Oct. 22) You might be in worry mode today. Remember that saying: “Worry is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but gets you nowhere.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23 to Nov. 21) Business and financial matters are difficult today. Whatever you do will be tough, because there’s no money. Doors will not open. People are negative-minded and stingy. Groan.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22 to Dec. 21) Today duty, obligations and orderliness are important. You will feel best if you work hard to get results.

Don’t let anyone get you down.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 to Jan. 19) Quite likely, you feel lonely or cut off from others today.

But this is just temporary.

(Plus, if you build fences, you end up being the prisoner.)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20 to Feb. 18)Someone older or more experienced might be critical of your ideas today. Naturally, this is discouraging. Don’t take this to heart, because this is history in a few days.

PISCES (Feb. 19 to March 20) Do not ask for permission or approval from authority figures today, because it will be tough to get it. Bide your time. Wait a few days.

YOU BORN TODAY You have excellent money savvy.

You also have influence in your

circle. Most of you make excellent parents. In the next three years, you will experience a time of culmination, success and financial accumulation.

That’s why it is wise for you to settle your debts this year. This is also a social year that deals with the repercussions of last year’s change.

Court Joan of Arc No. 428 of the Catholic Daughters of the Americas met May 10.

Members on the dinner committee were Carol McKee, Iris Smith, Sharon Skarda and Dora Coen.

The program was presented by Jean Benoit and Dana Dodge on the silver sneakers class at the YMCA. They brought some of the equipment that is used in the class and explained its benefits. Exercises done in the class help increase muscular strength, range of motion and balance.

Members were encouraged to try the classes available and find one that fits their needs.

The meeting was called to order with a prayer and reciting the Pledge of Allegiance.

There was no business meeting in April. The minutes of the March meeting were read and approved. Virginia Aguilar made the motion to approve. Betty Baker seconded.

There is a date change for the Bunn-O-Matic bake sale. It will be July 8. Teresa, Anita

and June are on the committee.

The National Convention will be July 20-24 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The court was asked to discuss the following proposed amendments that will be presented: 1. Would we be in favor of changing the name of Catholic Daughters of the Americas to Catholic Daughters of the World since we have court in Africa now?

2. Would we want to limit state officers to a term of two years rather than four?

3. Do we want bank statements sent to regents as well as the treasurer and financial secretary?

4. Does anyone have a resolution they would like to submit?

The chapter voted no on all of them. Pat Pokorny made the motion, seconded by Lois Nelson to cover the cost for those members attending the convention. Motion was carried.

The following slate of officers was presented and approved for the next term: Regent – Retta Ripperger Vice-Regent – Anita Studer Recording Secretary – McKee Financial Secretary – Kay Kinsella Treasurer – Alice Reed Betty Baker sent four cards last month and two this month.

Bancroft History Assembly

The Bancroft History Assembly entertained the other two Federated Women’s Clubs by hosting a “hat and glove” event from 1:30 to 3 p.m. Sunday, April 24. Bancroft History Assembly, a Federated Women’s Club, hosted the hat and glove event for the 125-year celebration of the General Federation of Women’s Club.

Other federated clubs of Elsevier and Chautauqua were invited. The theme of a “Tea and Crumpets Affair” was adhered to throughout. As suggested, each member was asked to wear gloves and a hat.

This was part of the normal wear of members 125 years ago.

This historical event was held at the refurbished lowana, as it was done in 1890. The mezzanine above the lobby was the scene of the recreation of the original celebration date. Tables were set and decorated with white tablecloths and a decorated rose bowl centerpiece, which were given away at the end of the event.

Each member passed through a serving line and chose either tea or coffee and then had a choice of many small cakes, mini cream puffs, mini Bismarck doughnuts and English crumpets. Tea and coffee were served using silver tea service sets.

At about 2 p.m., a short program was held with each club being asked to tell about the history of their club. Bonita Boughman, the Southwest Iowa District director, joined the tea party. After she addressed the group, visiting resumed. Chapter members would like to sincerely thank Karen Walter for her success-

ful efforts to obtain permission to use this beautiful facility for a creative group. It was deeply appreciated. An enormous thank you to all of the women who attended the tea and everyone that assisted in anyway to make this tea party a success.

Panther baseball sweeps Monarchs

BY RYAN KRONBERG CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

DENISON— The season’s longest conference road trip ended with just the result Creston’s baseball team was looking for.

The Panthers picked up production all throughout the lineup and played two of their cleaner games defensively to earn a doubleheader sweep of Denison-Schleswig Thursday in Hawkeye 10 baseball.

Creston took game one 4-2 and game two 9-6.

Coach Steve Birchard’s squad rallied in both games. Denison-Schleswig led game one 2-1 before the Panthers scored three unanswered.

The Monarchs led game two 4-3 before the Panthers scored six in a row to pull away.

“You don’t like to drive up here and not go home with two W’s,” Birchard said. “Even if you get a split, it’s a long drive.”

Creston’s defense, which struggled mightily in Tuesday’s loss to Glenwood, played two of its cleanest games of the season to date, especially in game two as the Panthers did not commit an error.

“Game two was nice not having any errors,” Birchard said.

Creston not only survived the Denison-Schleswig but also the stifling heat. Thursday’s game was easily the warmest the Panthers have played in this season.

“It was really good to get two wins on the road in a difficult, hot situation,” Birchard said.

In game one, Dustin Merritt’s base hit tied the game at 2-2 in the sixth In the seventh, Chase Shiltz drove in a pair with a base hit to left field.

That was all starter Kadon Hulett would need. Hulett allowed five hits, walked three and struck out nine.

In game two, it was the lower part of the order that produced.

Gavin Woods had his best offensive game of the season with three hits and two runs batted in.

Woods had the game-tying single in the sixth to drive in Michael Scherer. Scherer was hit by a pitch and then stole second.

“It was a breakout night for him,” Birchard said. “Early on, we’d been DH-ing for him. Lately, he’s been swinging well, but hasn’t got a lot of results. It was big for him to get those.”

Scherer and Merritt each drove in a run in the second.

Creston jumped out to a 2-0 lead with two in the second. Denison-Schleswig countered with three in the third and a run in the fourth.

The Panthers, who scored a run in the third, tied it with a run in the sixth and then broke it open with five in the seventh.

Creston finished with nine hits in game two. Hulett drove in a pair.

Shiltz had three hits.

Shiltz didn’t have his best outing, but was effective enough to earn the win. He scattered six hits, walked four and struck out nine.

Hulett and Shiltz provide a strong one-two combination on the mound.

“With Kadon and Chase, we feel pretty good,” Birchard said. “When they’re on the mound, you certainly have a chance.”

Creston improved to 7-8 overall and 6-6 in the Hawkeye 10.

The Panthers have the weekend off. They are back on the diamond Monday at Clarinda in Hawkeye 10 play.

Early run not enough for SW Valley softball in loss

BY RYAN KRONBERG, CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

CORNING — Southwest Valley started off well, but couldn’t quite hang on over the final six innings, dropping a 9-1 decision to Central Decatur Thursday in Pride of Iowa Conference softball.

The Timberwolves took the early lead with three straight hits with two outs in the first. Hailey Thomas singled and later scored on Ashtyn Grossnickle’s base hit.

“We got off to a great start,” said Southwest Valley coach Tara Miller.

The Timberwolf bats went quiet over the final six innings. Cardinals pitcher Lily Simon allowed only two hits in the final six innings.

“Unfortunately, our hits weren’t falling when we need them,” Miller said.

Central Decatur’s bats came alive late. The Cardinals scored a run in the fourth, then tacked in five in the fifth. Central Decatur sealed the win with three in the seventh.

Southwest Valley had some momentum, coming off a 13-11 win Monday over Stanton.

“We had a good night Monday.

We thought tonight would be the same, but we never got the hits when we needed them,” Miller said.

Kiara Roberts took the pitching loss for the Timberwolves.

Southwest Valley is back on the diamond tonight (Friday) at Pleasantville in Pride of Iowa Conference play.

Road trip split for Panthers softball

By KALEB CARTER

CNA sports reporter kacarter@crestonnews.com

DENISON — It was another doubleheader split for the Creston Panthers softball team Thursday. The Panthers split with Denison-Schleswig in Hawkeye 10 conference play.

Game one Creston stayed tight with the Monarchs through much of the first game, and were knotted with Denison-Schleswig at 4-4 going into the top of the fifth. Taylor Briley came in and surrendered the last three runs to take the loss.

While Denison-Schleswig’s Sarah Heilesen pitched, Rachelle Heilesen put in work with her bat. She went 2-for-3 with two home runs and four runs batted in the win.

Running into a string of bad luck and mental mistakes didn’t help Creston.

“We brought the infield in and they blooped a couple of singles right over where our second baseman would have been in shallow right field to catch it. As a result of the infield being in we weren’t able to get there, it was just kind of that deal,” Creston coach Mike McCabe said.

The Panthers didn’t capitalize in several big situations and left eight runners on base. The Panthers only struck out three times, but the ball kept

finding Monarch gloves.

“We had the bases loaded, we had two looking third strikes,” McCabe said. We had another situation where we had second and third with one out and Alli Thomsen just smoked the ball right at the second baseman —just a shot — It was kind of just one of those things.”

Briley and Lexie Little both went 2-for-4. Little, Thomsen Alyssa Higgins and Jami Sickels all drove in a run.

Game two A seven-run sixth inning proved to be the difference for Creston in a victory.

With the Monarchs up 2-0 and Sarah Heilesen cruising through her second outing of the night, Josie Sickels led off the sixth with a double to liven things up a bit for the Panthers. Shelby Palser followed that up with a single. An offensive explosion followed as Creston put up all seven runs on the board.

“I always tell the kids, you gotta keep plugging away,” McCabe said. “...You’re cruising along and bang, something happened.”

Palser had a clutch 3-for-4 game with two RBIs. McCabe said it would have been easy to lie down after a long bus ride and a game one loss, but he was pleased to see them respond in game two.

Alyssa Higgins went 2-for-4 with an RBI, Lexie Little went 2-for-4 with two RBIs. Saige Rice had a 1-for-3 game with a run scored.

Tayor Briley, who ended game one in the circle, pitched the whole second game for the win. She struck out just one, but kept the Monarchs from putting together any big innings. Each of the three runs she allowed came in a different inning as she struck out one batter.

Creston, now 14-6 and 8-4 in the Hawkeye 10, will go against Keokuk and Pella Christian in the Oskaloosa Tournament this Saturday.

Southwest Valley baseball rally falls short

BY RYAN KRONBERG, CNA sports editor rkronberg@crestonnews.com

CORNING — Southwest Valley’s baseball team has struggled at times late in games.

The Timberwolves struggle a bit early and towards the middle of Thursday’s Pride of Iowa Conference contest against Central Decatur.

Unlike other games this season, Southwest Valley made a strong comeback late to push the contest into extra innings.

Southwest Valley mounted a strong rally, but ultimately fell short, dropping an 8-6 decision in eight innings to the Central Decatur in Corning.

Central Decatur looked like it would make quick work of Southwest Valley.

The Cardinals tallied a pair in the first, then broke it open with four in the fourth.

“We had a meltdown early in the game. I thought it was going to be a short one,” said Southwest Valley coach Kenny Namanny.

Southwest Valley countered with five in the fifth.

Bryan Pearson and Trenton Drake each drove in a run, while Joey Kernan had the big hit, plating two.

The Timberwolves then came up big from the lower part of its order. Nine-slot hitter Hunter Pontius ripped a double to the left-centerfield fence to score Ryan Allison with the tying run.

Central Decatur was able to escape the seventh with the game tied.

“We definitely showed some toughness,” said Namanny.

Southwest Valley had a number of line drives that found Central Decatur gloves.

“We lined out at least five or six times,” Namanny said. “If those get through, it might have been a different game.”

The Cardinals then took control once more with two runs in the eighth. The Timberwolves could not answer in the eighth.

Thursday’s contest showed the Timberwolves what’s possible if they can finish a

Outdoor Report Take Dad Fishing for Father’s day As we honor dad this weekend, give dad something he will always treasure – quality time together. Take dad fishing and create memories that you can relive every time you’re together. “Going fishing together is an easy way parents can connect with their kids without the interruptions from all our mobile technology,� said Joe Larscheid, chief of the Iowa Department of Natural Resources Fisheries Bureau. “Spending the day with our kids fishing and playing by the water, we can slow time down, if only for that moment, and create a memory that will last forever.�

Visit the Iowa DNR website at http://www.iowadnr. gov/Fishing for tips on making the most of your fishing trip this Father’s Day including fishing reports, fishing maps and great places to fish close to home.

FIshing Report:

SOUTHWEST Don Williams Lake Black Crappie - Good: The crappie population is strong at Don Williams this year. Most fish are 8-9 inches. They are not being caught close to shore. Slowly troll or drift 1/8 ounce jigs tipped with minnows or small white or chartreuse twister tails out from shore in 15-20 feet of water in the upper half of the lake. Crappies are suspended from 5 to 10 feet down.

Rock Creek Lake Black Crappie - Fair: Crappie fishing is good. The crappie spawn is winding down; move out into the main lake and find offshore habitat or drift the main lake with small jigs and minnows.

Roberts Creek Lake Black Crappie - Fair: Crappies are moving back off of the shore and post spawn patterns should emerge.

Drift small jigs or spinners in the main lake.

Big Creek Lake Walleye - Good: Walleyes

are being caught trolling spinner rigs with minnows in 5-15 feet of water and jigging tipped with crawlers or minnows. Focus on the upper/ shallow 1/3rd of the lake.

Bluegill - Good: Bluegills are shallow right now < 4 feet of water. Good size fish (8 - 9 inch) are being caught on small jigs tipped with crawlers fished under bobbers.

Target aquatic vegetation or rip rap; donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be afraid to cast right next to shore.

Hickory Grove Lake Black Crappie - Fair: A fair to good crappie bite is going at Hickory Grove. They are being caught near the wood habitat, especially in the bays. Cast bright colored chartreuse panfish jigs or live minnows under a bobber close to treefalls and alongside the shoreline shrubbery that hangs out into the water.

Bluegill - Good: Bluegills are being caught shallow fishing small jigs tipped with wax worms or small pieces of crawler. Hickory Grove can produce some nice 7 to 8.5 inch bluegills.

Lake Ahquabi Black Crappie - Fair: Few crappies are being caught shallow. Suspended fish are being picked up drifting or slow trolling 1/16 or 1/8 ounce jigs with twister tails in 10 feet or deeper water. Start out from the west shoreline or out from the face of the dam. Bluegill - Good: Bluegills can be caught near shore with small jigs tipped with a crawler under a bobber near treefalls on any of the rip-rap banks and in open pockets in the vegetation close to shore in 2-4 feet of water. Keep moving if you arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t catching fish.

Ankeny Lake (DMACC) Bluegill - Good: High numbers of 6-7.5 inch bluegills spawning close to shore right now can provide a good opportunity to introduce young anglers to fishing.

Cast small pieces of crawler under a bobber just past the narrow band of vegetation around the edge.

Creston News Advertiser | Friday, June 17, 2016

RAGBRAI news released In an effort to keep the community informed, the Creston RAGBRAI Committee would like to share the following information about what will take place on July 25-26.

More information will follow in the coming weeks.

As many know, the riders will come in from Shenandoah on Highway 25. The support vehicles will come in on Highway 34. Most of the support vehicles will arrive in Creston before noon and the Creston RAGBRAI Committee has been told the bulk of the riders should arrive sometime between 2 and 6 p.m. This will be dependent on weather conditions such as rain or wind.

Riders who are staying in McKinley Park will use Cottonwood Road to reach their destination. Those that are staying at Southwestern Community College (SWCC) are being asked to use Spartan Drive, and riders staying on Creston school property are asked to take Green Valley Road/Lincoln Street to Academic Avenue.

Riders who are staying with folks in Creston will take routes that have been suggested by their hosts.

The three information centers/medical and security services areas sponsored by Greater Regional Medical Center will be located at the Technical Center at SWCC, the bus facility commonly known as the bus barn, on Creston school property and the maintenance building at McKinley Park.

The main information centers/medical and security services area at SWCC will be open at 6 a.m. July 25. Medical services and law enforcement will be at this location from 8 a.m. until midnight. Law enforcement will be available in all campground areas through the duration of the event. The bus facility on Creston School property information center and the information center at McKinley Park will be open

from 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. on July 25.

On July 26, the main information center at SWCC and the center at McKinley Park will be open from 5 to 8 a.m.

The information center at Creston school property will not reopen on Tuesday, July 26, and all riders and participants are to be directed to the SWCC center for any needed assistance.

The trolleys and buses will begin running around 10:30 a.m. and will continue to transport people until 12:30 a.m.

July 26. There will be trolley and bus stops at McKinley Park, SWCC, the bus facility and on the west side of Creston Elementary/Middle School, the Chamber Office at 208 W. Taylor St. and at the corner of Ringgold and Sumner streets. The trolleys and buses will stop in uptown Creston at the corner of Adams and Oak streets.

The roads around McKinley Lake will be closed to through traffic beginning at 9 a.m. July 25 and remain closed until 10 a.m. July 26. These include Adams Street beginning at McKinley and past Lakeshore Drive, as well as Stone Street.

In uptown Creston, the following streets will possibly be closed on Sunday beginning at 1 p.m., but this time could change to later. If the streets are closed on Sunday, they will remain closed until 10 a.m.

Tuesday. The streets being closed are Adams Street from Oak to Pine streets. In addition, Elm Street from Union Street to the alley south of the Elm’s Club will be closed and Maple Street to the alley just north of Adams Street and then the rest of Maple Street to Montgomery will be closed.

On July 26, the primary route out of Creston for a majority of the riders will be Lincoln, McKinley or Lakeshore Drive to South Park to Highway 34 East to the High and Dry Road.

A few other items of note that you may find helpful: T:5.125”

Cell service could be affected by the number of electronic devices that will arrive with our RAGBRAI guests. Additional towers are being brought in to help with coverage, but it is an area the Creston RAGBRAI Committee wanted the public to be aware of and could impact cell service. You will still be able to text and receive texts.

The musical entertainment for the event will be: Tripple J Express from 1:30 to 4:30 p.m. at the bandshell in McKinley Park In uptown Creston the entertainment will be: Royce Johns from 4 to 4:30 p.m., 6:30 to 7 p.m. and 9 to 9:30 p.m.

Oreo Meatwagon from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Templeton Fade from 7 to 9 p.m.

Double Vision from 9:30 p.m. to midnight Around 9:15 p.m., RAGBRAI will do a salute to the veterans on the main stage.

In addition to the musical entertainment, the Historical Village will be open during the day along with the Family Fun Center, the city pool, the Strand Theatre, Punky’s, bowling and golf. Other activities are still being arranged.

The beverage garden, located in uptown Creston, will open at 3 p.m. July 25 and close at 12:30 a.m. July 26.

The Creston RAGBRAI T-shirts are available for purchase at the Chamber of Commerce office at 208 W. Taylor St. or Maple Street Memories at 222 N. Maple St. The housing committee is still looking for folks who would like to host a rider, either in your home or yard.

The volunteer committee is still looking for volunteers to help with the event.

The Creston RAGBRAI website is www.crestonragbrai.org. It is updated regularly for both riders and residents of Creston, so check the site often for updates.

If you have any questions, call the Chamber office at 641782-7021.
