GREENFIELD – At Nodaway Valley High School, Zoey Van Eaton wore a smile that “lit up the room” and made others feel welcome.

W h e n w o r k i n g Van Eaton with classmates, she sought to lighten the mood and make learning fun. And, on the job, she balanced a good work ethic with her sassy personality.

“She was a wonderful student,” said Tina Phillippi, Nodaway Valley Middle School teacher and assistant high school volleyball coach.

“She always made people feel comfortable and welcomed. She had a great gift with that.”

On July 20, the 17-yearold Van Eaton of Greenfield died in a motorcycle-SUV collision in west Nashville, Tennessee, while on a motorcycle trip with her father, Scott Van Eaton, and brother, Bradley. According to a Nashville Metropolitan Police Department report, she was a passenger on a Harley-Davidson driven by her father when the fatal accident occurred. Only she lost her life in the crash.

In an obituary published by her family, Van Eaton, born on January 30, 1999, in Creston, was described as “a gift from God” and one with

an “infectious laugh and sassy personality.” She spent the majority of her short life on a farm south of Fontanelle with her family. She loved spending time with her favorite dog, Prince, and best friend, Jordan.

Three years ago, Van Eaton and her family moved to Greenfield. In the fall, she would have been a senior at Nodaway Valley.

“She always had a sassiness to her that would let you know she was trying to find out the person that she was,” Phillippi said.

Casey Berlau, Nodaway Valley Community Schools superintendent, added: “She was just a nice and great Berlau kid from my perspective.”

At school, Phillippi remembers Van Eaton for the way she made classmates feel welcome.

“She was everybody’s friend,” Phillippi said. “I don’t think Zoey really knew a stranger. When they were in group work, she had a way of making learning fun and entertaining for her classmates, whether it was a lab or readings.”

During Van Eaton’s middle and high school years at Nodaway Valley Community Schools, she played volleyball, participated in FFA and played multiple instruments VAN EATON | 2A

Farm leasing arrangements meeting scheduled Aug. 8 GREENFIELD – In January 2016, participants from last year’s leasing meetings across Iowa completed a follow-up evaluation. According to the results, people attended to get an update on the rental market.

One participant wrote, “The meeting helps me have informed discussions with the farmer, hopefully arriving at a fair price on rent and being good custodians of the land.”

Participants’ most requested topic for 2016 was costs of production.

The 2016 farm leasing arrangement meeting will be from 9 to 11:30 a.m. Monday, August 8, in the City Hall meeting room at 202 S. First St. in Greenfield.

Besides the standard topics of land value and cash rental rate trend, costs of production will be the feature topic. Landlords and tenants are more interested in costs when farming is not as profitable.

They have to figure out how much money is avail-

able and where cuts can be made.

“With last year’s participants requesting more information on the tenant’s costs of production, I wanted a hands-on activity instead of more slides,” said Tim Eggers, Iowa State University Extension field agricultural economist. “We’re going to play a game so participants experience decisions tenants make every year.”

The farm leasing arrangements meeting will give landowners, tenants and agri-business professionals information and materials they need to make decisions regarding farmland ownership, management and leasing practices.

Cost of the farm leasing arrangements meeting is $15 per person, which includes a 100-page booklet and copy of the presentation. Pre-registration is required and limited to 30 people. To register, call the Adair County Extension office at 641-743-8412.

in band – namely, French horn.

Phillippi was also Van Eaton’s head volleyball coach in middle school.

“It was great to see her grow as a seventh-grade volleyball player until her sophomore year,” Phillippi said.

“She did not go out for volleyball her junior year, but to see her grow as an athlete, she really started to become more comfortable out on the court.

She was in band as well, and I believe her junior year, she really started to flourish with music and took a huge (leadership) role in band.”

In FFA, Blake Anderson, agriculture education instructor and FFA adviser, worked closely with Van Eaton.

“In class, Zoey was a quiet person but always ready to get her work done and help anybody else who needed help on their projects,” Anderson said.

“She worked hard on everything and wanted to do her best. She had a pretty

and applications may be found at www.east-union. k12.ia.us.

East Union Community School District registration for 2016-17 school year will be held from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. Tuesday.

The Iowa Department of Education, Bureau of Nutrition and Health Services, announced its policy for free and reduced-price meals for children unable to pay the full price of meals served under the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program and the Afterschool Care Snack Program.

Application downloads and instructions can be found at www. east-union.k12.ia.us under the parents and students tab.

Households may be eligible for free or reduced-price meal benefits one of four ways listed below.

Households whose income is at or below the levels shown are eligible for reduced-price meals or free meals, if they complete the application for free and reduced-price school meals/milk. Households may complete one application listing all children and return it to their child’s school. When completing an application, only the last four digits of the social security number of the household’s primary wage earner or another adult household member is needed.

Food Assistance households and children re-

Family Investment Program (FIP) are eligible for free meals. Most children from Food Assistance and FIP households will be qualified for free meals automatically.

These households will receive a letter from their children’s schools notifying them of their benefits. Households that receive a letter from the school need to do nothing more for their children to receive free meals. No further application is necessary. If any children were not listed on the notice of eligibility, the household should contact the school to have free meal benefits extended to them.

Some Food Assistance and FIP households will receive a letter from the Department of Human Services (DHS) which will qualify the children listed on the letter for free meals.

Parents must take this letter to the child’s school to receive free meals.

Food Assistance or FIP households receiving benefits that do not receive a letter from DHS must complete an application with the abbreviated information as indicated on the application and instructions for their children to receive free meals.

When the application lists an assistance program’s case number for any household member, eligibility for free benefits is extended to all children in a household.

Eligibility from the previous year will continue within the same school for up to 30 operating days into the new school year.

Cooper also played percussion in high school band alongside Van Eaton.

“We always talked to each other in band, and she was always friendly,” Cooper said. “She was a great person in general, and she was always someone people liked to talk to and hang out with.”

Van Eaton donated blood several times and willed her organs to be donated if possible.

“Zoey was just a good all-around (person), and she wanted to make everyone’s lives better,” Anderson said.

“She was cheerful and always had a nice smile on that brought people joy.”

help other children in the household qualify for benefits. If the foster family is not eligible for free or reduced-price meal benefits, it does not prevent a foster child from receiving benefits. Special Supplement Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) participants may be eligible for free or reduced-price meals based on a completed application.

When known by the school, households will be notified of any child eligible for free meals if the children are enrolled in the Head Start/Even Start Program or are considered homeless, migrant or runaway. If any children are not listed on the notice of eligibility, contact the school for assistance in receiving benefits. If households are dissatisfied with the application approval done by the officials, they may make a formal appeal either orally or in writing to the school’s designated hearing official. The policy statement on file at the school contains an outline of the hearing procedure.

School officials may verify the information in the application, and that deliberate misrepresentation of information may subject the applicant to prosecution under applicable state and federal criminal statutes. Households should contact their local school for additional information.

There will be no discrimination against individuals with Limited English Proficiency (LEP) in the school meal programs.

od ends, unless the household is notified their children are directly certified or the household submits an application that is approved, the children must pay full price for school meals and the school will not send a reminder or notice of expired eligibility.

An application cannot be approved unless complete eligibility information is submitted. Applications may be submitted at any time during the year. If a family member becomes unemployed the family should contact the school to complete an application. Households notified of their children’s eligibility must contact the school if the household chooses to decline the free meal benefits.

Foster children are eligible for free meal benefits.

Some foster children will be qualified for free meals automatically through the State Direct Certification process. Their host family will receive notification of these benefits. Families that receive this notification from the school need to do nothing more for their foster children to receive free meals. If a family has foster children living with them and does not receive notification and wishes to apply for such meals, instructions for making application for such children are contained on the application form. A foster child may be included as a member of the foster family if the foster family chooses to also apply for benefits for other children. Including children in foster care as

good, solid work ethic – what we want in all our students.”

Like others who knew Van Eaton, Anderson was also quick to note Van Eaton’s smile and welcoming nature.

The last three years of her life, Zoey worked at Tiger Drive Inn serving ice cream. Van Eaton’s former classmate and 2016 graduate of Nodaway Valley High School, Noah Cooper, 18, of Greenfield worked at Tiger Drive Inn with Van Eaton.

“She was definitely one person I always looked forward to working with,” Cooper said. Cooper “You get some people who aren’t too great of workers, but she was one of those people who worked hard and was always a blast to be around. We always liked to joke, mess around and give each other (a hard time). It was always fun working with her.”

A numbers game?

Dear Readers: Today’s SOUND OFF is about not finding phone numbers in magazines. Janet H. in San Antonio wrote: “Have you ever tried to look for a telephone number in a magazine?

Even on the page that lists the offices and departments, I can find no numbers to call.

“My husband and I live in the ‘dark ages.’ We don’t have a computer. Can you believe it? I wonder how many others are in the same boat. Any suggestions?”

Janet, sometimes the number is listed, but way at the bottom of one of the pages.

For others who don’t have access to a computer, call 800555-1212, which is toll-free (it will not cost you), to get the phone number you are looking for. I write for Good Housekeeping magazine, and when I called the above free phone number, they gave me the customer-service number in just a few seconds. – Heloise SEND A GREAT HINT TO: Heloise P.O.

FAMILY CIRCUS® by Bill Keane

Hints from Heloise Dear Heloise: I purchased an 8-by-10-inch acrylic picture frame, and I can’t tell you how many different ways I’ve used it. Here are my “FAST FACTS” for acrylic frames: 1. To hold a recipe when cooking.

2. To hold a quilt pattern when quilting.

3. Place a welcome letter in one for the guest room.

4. For seasonal quotes to display around the house.

5. To hold a list of do’s and don’ts in game rooms.

– Geri N. in San Antonio PRESERVING WATCH BATTERIES Dear Heloise: To keep the battery from running out when storing watches, leave the stem pulled out. This is great when you have multiple watches. – Ursula H., Lincoln, Calif.

Ursula, we have a “yea” and a “nay” from jewelers on this hint. If you do this, make sure you store the watches in a covered jewelry box to minimize dust and moisture entering the mechanism. GENTLY pull or

push the stem back.

Another said it’s best not to, depending on the watch.

If you can remove the battery yourself, do so. – Heloise MULTITASKING GRAPEFRUIT SPOON Dear Heloise: You listed good uses for grapefruit spoons. My trusty set also is used to pluck the leaves off strawberries and to core the stem of a mushroom cap before stuffing it.

There’s a gadget for almost everything these days, but never enough space to store them. So anything that multitasks is a prize possession in my book. – G.A. Hamilton, Colorado Springs, Colo.

Dear G.A.: Yea! Even if one does not eat grapefruit, a grapefruit spoon with serrated edges is handy for all sorts of BEETLE BAILEY® by Greg & Mort Walker uses around the house. Love it! – Heloise NO MORE HAMMERED FINGERS Dear Heloise: Here’s a hint for hanging pictures: Before I hang a picture on the wall, I place the nail between the teeth of a small comb, then hammer it into the wall.

By doing this, I avoid hammered fingers or losing the nail should it fall out of my grasp. – Terri in Texas (c)2016 by King Features Syndicate Inc. BLONDIE® by Dean Young

Fishing regulations to be relaxed at McKinley Lake IOWA DNR

CRESTON—The Iowa Department of Natural Resources will relax fishing regulations at McKinley Lake in Union County, effective immediately, due to a water level drawdown needed for Creston’s Adams Street bridge replacement project.

The city of Creston may need to lower the lake up to five feet for the bridge replacement project. Since McKinley Lake’s maximum depth is approximately six feet, the fish may concentrate into a small area. Limited space and increased summer water temperatures could cause a fish kill. Relaxed fishing regulations will let anglers utilize the fish that may not survive the drawdown.

The city of Creston will begin to lower the lake on August 1st in preparation for the bridge replacement.

Expect limited access to the lake while the water level is lowered and the project is completed.

Anglers with a valid fishing license will be allowed to harvest any size or number of largemouth bass, channel catfish and all other fish species from McKinley Lake.

Any number of fishing poles or jug fishing will be allowed.

Anglers must remain in sight of these lines at all times,

Battle of the BBQ results

shoes and accessories, moved in late July to a new location: 215 W.

Green Valley microcystin levels reported still high The Iowa Department of Natural Resources testing results for this week show microcystin/blue-green algae levels are still high at Green Valley Lake near Creston in Union County.

If there are any questions, contact Union County Environmental Health at 641-782-7803.

Gibson Memorial Library kick-off event scheduled Sunday Gibson Memorial Library is kicking off its capital campaign with a fundraising event, “A Sunday with Matilda.”

The event will be from 4 to 6:30 p.m. Sunday at the library, 200 W. Howard St., in Creston.

The event will feature live local music by Brandy & Wade Sick, Beards of a Feather and Second Chance Christian Band, as well as artists at work: Joey Cosenza-Weaver, Dada inspired art; Rasha Phillips, watercolor painting; and Amber Ingraham, photography booth. There will be a silent auction of donated artwork, as well as door prizes.

There will also be face painting, poetry prose and limericks and a theatrical history performance by

Gibson Memorial Library Director David Hargrove.

Several food items will be available – walking tacos, watermelon, cake, cookies and Hi-C – donated by Fareway, Subway, Christy Nielsen and McDonald’s.

All donations up to $15,000 will be matched, as the library works toward its goal of raising $1.9 million locally for its expansion project into the Creston Area Library and Cultural Center. The plan will double the size of the library at its current location, which opened its doors April 7, 1931.

The library staff members invite the public to come and see the proposed schematics for the new and improved Creston Area Library and Cultural Center.
