Larson named GV’s Most Valuable Person

BY VINDE WELLS vwells@oglecountynews.com The recipient of German Valley’s 2019 Most Valuable Person Award was surprised when her name was called.

Peggy Larson was relaxing in the audience June 7, lending morale support and help as needed, as the annual German Valley Days festival, sponsored by the local Lions Club, was just getting underway at Ben Miller Park.

“Oh yes, I was very surprised. I’m very honored,” Larson, herself a Lions Club member, said after the presentation.

Emcee Donna Smith, also a Lions Club member, presented the annual award and praised Larson’s efforts for the festival.

“Her area of service is most evident in her participation in the planning of German Valley Days,” Smith said. “She faithfully and tirelessly works in putting together our annual festival.”

“She is an organizer and an idea person, who then works to make her ideas a reality,” Smith said. “I wouldn’t want to do it without her.”

Larson moved to German Valley with her husband in 1994 and joined the Lions Club in 2000.

Since then she has served as the club’s first vice president, president, and secretary, and is currently the treasurer.

SCHOOL NEWS

Ag in the Classroom puts students on GPS trail Fourth grade students at Centennial Elementary School in Polo discovered the importance of GPS to farmers through an Ag in the Classroom program.

During the program students learned fun facts about the satellites used by GPS receivers.

“There are at least 24 satellites orbiting the Earth at one time. The satellites, powered by solar, weigh about 2000 pounds and are 17 feet across,” said University of Illinois Extension Ogle County, Melinda Charbonneau, Ag in the Classroom Program Coordinator.

Some uses of GPS in agriculture include: field mapping, soil sampling, crop scouting, tractor guidance and variable rate applications.

“GPS allows farmers to have tractors with auto-steer. This helps so there is not overlapping of seeds, chemicals, fertilizers, etc…,” Charbonneau said. “GPS allows farmers to plant more seeds in richer soil and fewer seeds in poorer soils. It is also used when applying fertilizer.

Instead of the whole field receiving the same amount of fertilizer, the amount of application is based on

the needs of the soil.

After hearing information about GPS and satellites, students participated in a GPS scavenger hunt.

“They were trying to be the first to collect 10 letters to spell a word.

Once the letters were unscrambled they found the word was satellites,” Charbonneau said.

Agriculture in the Classroom is a program to help students gain a greater awareness of the role of agriculture in the economy and society.

Students learn that thousands of farm products are in the world around them—on their plate, in the clothes they wear, in the medicine that makes them well, and in earth-friendly fuels and plastics.

Ag in the Classroom is offered through the University of Illinois Extension in partnership with Ogle County Farm Bureau, Carroll County Farm Bureau, Ogle County Soil & Water, and Carroll County Soil & Water.

For more information about the program, call the Ogle County Extension Office at 815-732-2191 or visit the Extension website at web. Cali Zies and Kylieanne Vaultonburg were the first students in Kelsi Jones’ fourth grade class in Polo to complete the GPS scavenger hunt. Photo supplied illlinois.edu/bdo.

Waco will make its debut performance at the Mt. Morris Jamboree on Friday, June 21 at 7 p.m. at the Reckmeyer Band Shell in downtown Mt. Morris.

“Three-fourths of this quartet has graced our band shell stage twice as Anderlik, Otto and Church, though last year’s performance was cut short by rain, they were well received and greatly admired each time,” said event organizer Larry Ubben.

Three of the top bluegrass musicians in the Chicago area, Rob Anderlik, Pat Otto, and Mike Church first met at a late night jam session and felt a deep musical connection from the moment they played together, Ubben said.

Even better, they discovered they shared a wide range of musical interests, ranging from Southern and classic rock, blues, swing, jazz standards, cinematic instrumentals, folk music and of course, bluegrass.

They formed a trio in 2015 and quickly built a reputation as one of the most versatile acoustic bands in the Midwest.

“Featuring the music of the Grateful Dead, Allman Brothers, The Band, Little Feat, Lyle Lovett, trad/progressive bluegrass as well as original material, Waco is Wavy Dave plus AOC,” Ubben said.

Wavy Dave Burlingame, another ace Chicago musician, is on bass and

Chana School Museum annual sale was successful Dear Editor, The Chana School Museum’s annual rummage sale was an event that brought many folks out regardless of the bad weather.

There were smiles on many faces as young and old found treasures to take home.

The funds raised this year were the greatest yet of the 20-plus years of organizing and running the sale.

Why was the sale a major success? Was it the bad weather that brought people out knowing that the Oregon Coliseum would shelter the event, or the incredible donations at bargain prices that attracted the buyers.

Maybe both!

Regardless, the Oregon Coliseum was packed to just about overflowing with a variety of items. The sale had even unusual things like a “suitcase table” and an expensive electric self-raising computer table.

Thanks to Kathy and George Bouska there was an enormous offering of teaching materials for teachers and parents.

Plants sold quickly and were donated to the sale by Tim and Penny O’Rourke, Earlyne Warmolts, Jennifer Kaffenbarger, and me.

This event was a success for several reasons. First, it generated funds that help maintain the old 1883 schoolhouse.

The Chana School Museum runs totally on donations and grants. Volunteers saved the school, restored it, run programs for children, and maintain the building.

The second reason the sale was a success was that there were items brought to the sale that could be used at the museum, such as vintage clothing, office supplies, and a 42-inch flat screen TV. The third reason this event was a success was the fact that people met people and had a good time.

Everyone enjoyed the community spirit that was generated.

Customers were happy getting a super deal.

Volunteers gained a remarkable feeling of making a difference by organizing an event, making the selling area well arranged to attract buyers, and providing an opportunity for folks to visit with one another.

Thanks to the City of Oregon, the Chana School Foundation was able to use the Coliseum again this year for this fundraiser.

The location is perfect for people coming into town for groceries and other tasks or the folks passing through town using highways 2 and 64 who can easily see that there is an event going on at the Coliseum.

Thanks also goes to the newspapers for their great coverage to get the word out to all their readers, Merlin’s Greenhouse for their donation, all the businesses that allowed posters to be displayed before the May 24 and 25 event, the volunteers who were busy for five days dealing with various aspects of the event, and all those who provided items for the sale.

It is amazing that the castoffs of one

person can be a treasure to someone else and even benefit a cause.

LR Lions Club says thanks for support of festival Dear Editor, The Leaf River Lions want to thank all of the supporters of Leaf River Summer Daze. Even the weather supported our weekend!

Also thanks to all of the other Leaf River organizations that contributed to all the events that were available.

The Leaf River Busy Beavers, Mary Martha Club, River Valley Complex, the Leaf River Firemen’s Association, as well as the Forreston FFA Alumni.

Thanks also to the Bertolet Memorial Library as well as the Bertolet Foundation.

Without community support festivals like ours would not be able to continue.

The Lions want to specifically acknowledge those that contributed to our fireworks, either as individuals or organization, you help is greatly appreciated.

First all of those “anonymous” donators that put money in the can at our breakfasts, the Mary Martha Club, Leaf River Grange, Jerry Wickam American Legion and Chuck and Deb Buser.

Thanks so much!

I could go on and mention numerous individuals for their participation and selfless time they’ve given, but I’m afraid I’d miss someone, and you know who you are. Thanks!

And for those of you that did not attend any of the Summer Daze events, it was your loss.

Communities the size of Leaf River need everyone to be working and supporting each other.

Without that type of support, events like Summer Daze will eventually be lost.

The Lions Raffle winners are: $500 to Ellie Wells, $100 winners were David Clearwater, Linda Schreiber, and Stephanie Wheeler.

The $100 Eickman’s gift certificate was won by Caleb Worley.

The overnight stay at White Pines Lodge went to Connie Hartje.

Shirley Barber won the $50 prize and Kathy Wilken won the Mary Kay gift basket.

Jim Kuntzelman won the table runner, and Chile Peppers certificates were won

by Kelda Wagner and Laura Werner.

The Fibbers Bar & Grill certificates were won by Gary Melvin and Jared Patterson.

Once again, thanks for your support.

On June 6, Polo Two of the Junior Miss division hosted a team from Mt. Carroll.

After two bad losses opening the season, Polo showed signs of coming together as a team.

While they ultimately lost the game 15-10, overall they played some very good ball defensively and their pitching stabilized under Leah Calderon for much of the contest.

Mt. Carroll picked up two runs in the top of the first on three singles and a walk.

Makayla Cisketti led off the Polo first by drawing a walk. Two infield outs led to Cisketti scoring to close the score to 2-1 visitors after one.

Polo’s Senior Miss team coached

by Jeff and Melissa Frey went up north to Forreston June 3, where they picked up easy wins by margins of 22-7 and 18-12.

In game one, Polo picked up 10 base on balls in the top of the first inning.

Teah Almassy had Polo’s only hit but that was enough to go along with so many walks as Polo took an early 11-0 lead.

Polo added another 10 runs in the top of the second to bolt to a lopsided 21-0 edge.

In the bottom of the second, Polo switched pitchers and Forreston quickly took advantage of a new hurler and scored seven runs.

A number of walks and several key hits accounted for the uprising.

In the top of the third, Bree Cox scored Polo’s last run on a passed ball. Ali Danekas came in to wrap things up for the win.

Danekas struck out the final three batters to end the game under the 10 run rule.

For the night in game one, Polo banged out eleven hits with Teah

Almassy having two singles and three RBIs. Karlea Frey picked up the win.

In game two at Forreston, Polo was the home team as Reylee Katner went out to pitch in her first start of the season.

Polo batters came alive in the bottom of the inning. Rebekah Ziegler led off the inning with a single.

Six of the next nine batters would also get knocks as Polo plated five runs to go up 11-3 after two.

Forreston, however, was yet to be heard from when Polo changed pitchers going to Emmalee Gilbert.

Gilbert got the first batter but then had control problems which led to the hosts scoring eight runs to tie the game at eleven.

Polo did not waste any time regaining the lead.

Three singles and two doubles greeted the Forreston pitcher as Polo pushed across three to runs to go up 14-11 through three.

After Polo’s Karlea Frey held Forreston scoreless in the top of the fourth, the offense came alive for Polo punching out six singles and a double to bring in four more runs to go up 18-11. With the win, Polo moved to 2-0 for the campaign.
