Enrollment is down...again Forrestville is only district with a slight gain

By Vinde Wells Editor For the first time in several years, one local school district has more students this year than last, while enrollment at two others remains down.

Enrollment in the Forrestville Valley School District is on the upswing with a gain of 24 students this year for a total of 906, compared to last year’s 882. “This is the first year since 2007-08 that enrollment increased,� said Forrestville Valley Superintendent Sheri Smith.

That year the district had 1,065 students.

Smith attributed the increase to new families Riverboat cruises on the Pride of Oregon were just part of the annual Oregon Rotary’s Mark Twain Day held on moving into the district.

students.

Associate Superintendent Adam Larsen said the loss is apparently due to families moving out of the district for employment. “It appears to be moveouts,� he said. “We had 137 [new] non-12th grade students who were enrolled at some point last year but not this year. Compare that to only 95 students who are new this year in grades other than kindergarten. It’s more exports than imports.

Anecdotally, I’d attribute this to jobs. I know a few families who moved out of state to find better work.�

Although the high school lost 26 students from 485 to 459 and the junior high 18, going from 210 to 192, the news is not all bad.

Oregon Elementary School picked up 22 students, with the enrollment there going from 775 to 797.

Polo Schools, with the smallest enrollment, took the hardest hit, losing a total of 47 students from 650 at this time last year to 603 this year.

Superintendent Chris Rademacher agreed with Larsen that jobs plays an important role in the loss. “We have been affected by the closing of the printing plants in Mt. Morris. This is a downward trend at the schools in our area,� he said.

Polo has faced steadily declining enrollment for more than a decade. Enrollment in pre-school through 12th grade was 805 at the start of the 2001-02 school year.

Rademacher said a trend toward larger farms and a lack of new homes being built in the district are factors.

Mother Nature offers perfect day for river sweep Volunteer team helps clean up the Rock River

By Chris Johnson Reporter Picking up a piece of trash is easy, but picking up thousands of pieces of trash in one morning requires the help of a team of volunteers.

That team of volunteers is what helped make the sixth annual Rock River Sweep a success on Sept. 6. “The volunteers are very important to this sweep,� said section organizer Mark Nehrkorn. “We can not get the coverage without them.�

Volunteers gathered at Kiwanis Park at 7:30 a.m. on Saturday morning to learn about the plan to clean the river from the Oregon boat launch south to Castle Rock. “The biggest thing out there. Safety,� said Nehrkorn. “You know, if it does not look safe to pick up, do not touch

it. We don’t want anyone getting hurt, its not worth it.�

He advised the volunteers to take care around the dam. “Stay away from the dam,�

Nehrkorn said. “Don’t take any chances around the water and pay attention to where you are at.�

Unfortunately for these volunteers the garbage was plentiful. “There is plenty of garbage out there to pick up,� said Nehrkorn. “This is a one day event, one morning. It has to be a year round effort by everyone to take care of this

great resource we have.�

He said boaters and fisherman can help year round by just picking up a piece of trash or two every time they use the river.

All the garbage collected during the sweep was brought to Kiwanis Park to be sorted for recycling.

This year the pile was larger because the islands

north of the dam were cleaned this year. “Stay off of private property,� said Nehrkorn. “This year on the islands Turn to A10

He and his family will be great additions to our community.�

Among others, Dettman has worked for the Madison, Wis., and Ida, Ill., public libraries along with the Institute of Historical Research in London.

His other experience includes working for the Carpenter’s Place Homeless Shelter and serving on the Rockford Mayoral Task Force on Homelessness. “ I grew up driving through Oregon when we visited my grandparents and I have always felt it to be a great place,� Dettman said. “I can’t wait to get started at the library and start meeting the patrons. I want the citizens to want to come to the library and to realize how much a library can add to an already great community.�

The library’s former director Marsha Zaccone is retiring and her last day will be Sept. 13. “We will truly miss Marsha at the library,� Stephens said. “She has served for almost 10 years and has been a great visionary for us. She has always led with integrity and with the library’s best interests in mind. Andy has big shoes to fill but we think he is up to the task.�

Forrestville sees slight increase 2008 to 2012.�

The population in the City of Polo decreased six percent from 2000 to 2012, he said. “When I look at the enrollment we had 30 kindergarteners enter [this fall] and actually 50 graduating seniors [last spring] so that is a loss of 20

students,� Rademacher said. “We are down seven students in our Pre-K program. We had two families transfer who had 12 students together. We are now averaging 40 students per class at the elementary.�

Roofing contractor loses license Sauk Valley Media A Byron contractor has lost his state roofing contractor’s license indefinitely after installing a substandard roof on a home in 2011, the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation reported last week.

Rodney Scott Rogers, 36, Stillman Valley, former owner of Rogers Remodeling

Inc., 5125 E. Hamlet Circle, Byron, cannot apply to have his license restored for at least a year, according to a consent order between him and the state, signed July 31.

Brett and Jim Rogers, both of Oregon, are Scott Rogers’ brothers.

At the time of the suspension, Scott no longer owned the business, and he chose not to hire an attorney,

attend the suspension hearing and fight the allegation because he does not intend to return to the roofing business, Brett Rogers said.

He and Jim bought out their brother and they now own and operate Rogers Remodeling at 107 Daysville Rd., Oregon; Scott no longer is affiliated with the company in any way, Brett said.

An eye exam is a good idea, especially if things are starting to look a little fuzzy around the edges.

Judson Bemis went from a log cabin to mansion Editor’s note: Otto Dick, Oregon, has researched the people, places, and events important in Oregon’s history for the Ogle County Historical Society.

The following is one of a series of the articles he has written.

By Otto Dick The following is from the Colorado College Bulletin by Rhonda Van Pelt.

She wrote, “Imagine the Colorado College campus without the Bemis Family.

There would be no Bemis Hall, no world renowned collection of the letters of British and American writers at Taylor Hall. Alice Bemis Taylor philanthropy, alone, amounts to approximately $750,000 to our Colorado College helping students for 67 years after she died.�

Alice Cogswell Bemis moved to Colorado Springs in 1881.

The family had lived in Massachusetts where Judson ran his bag-manufacturing empire.

Alice’s health problems brought her to Colorado Springs when the small resort town had fewer than 100 telephones.

In 1898 Judson and Alice provided funding for outstanding scholarship and teaching in the Department of Humanities.

In 1908 along with the Colorado Springs Founder,

Judson Bemis

Judson and Alice Bemis lived in this Victorian home in Colorado Springs, Colo. Photo supplied Students are seated at tables in the dining hall in Bemis Hall at Colorado College.

William Jackson Palmer, they provided funding to build Bemis Hall.

Two years later the Cogswell Theater, named for Alice Bemis, was added in the basement.

The Bemises then purchased land and built the Jackson House residential hall.

About the same time they funded the school’s department of banking and business administration.

Judson and Alice’s daughter, Alice, married Frederick Morgan Taylor, a wealthy stockbroker, in 1903.

Alice continued her parents passion and support of Colorado College and Colorado Springs.

She served as Colorado College first female trustee.

When she died in 1942 she

left $400,000 to Colorado College.

Alice and Frederick Taylor contributed the following to the community: 1.

Colorado Springs Historic Day Nursery, built in 1923.

2. La Foret Conference and Retreat Center, built 1928.

3. Black Forest, Bemis Taylor Memorial Chapel. 4.

Grace Church organ and the endowment for free Taylor Memorial Concert Series.

5. The Bemis Taylor Child Guidance Clinic, Colorado Springs Fine Arts Center, built 1936. 6. Bemis Art School, Taylor Museum of Southwest Studies and finally 7.the Alice Bemis Taylor Elementary School built in 1952.

In 2009, relatives of the family gathered on the campus to celebrate their

Alice Bemis Taylor

family relationship with Colorado College since the 1880s.

Marjorie Perry, the daughter of Albert Bemis, who like his sister and father, also served as the college trustee related a story about the portrait of her as a baby with her grandmother, Alice Cogswell Bemis.

The portrait hangs above the fireplace in Bemis Hall.

She recalled, “She began

talking with a young Colorado State Student and asked her if she had ever seen the portrait. My mother said that baby is me. The student got so excited, ‘You’re Baby Bemis! We used to draw mustaches on you at study time when we were bored.’�

Today within view of Pikes Peak you can stay at the historic Hearthstone Inn formerly the Bemis House, built in 1885.

Judson Moss Bemis as a young man grew up first living in a 20 by 20 feet log cabin near the Lighthouse Church.

Later he built this threestory mansion in Colorado Springs, Colo.

For Marilyn and myself, Colorado Springs was one of our favorite vacation sites with several parks, water falls and especially Pikes Peak.

Egyptian Theatre to show documentary about Jens Jensen

Lincoln Highway landscape architect has Ogle Co. link A documentary on the life of Jens Jensen, landscape architect, will be presented Sunday, Sept. 13 at 7 p.m. at the Egyptian Theatre, DeKalb.

Jensen had a historic link with Ogle and Lee Counties in the early 1900s through his work with the newlycreated Lincoln Highway as well as his relationship with sculptor Lorado Taft and Illinois Governor Frank Lowden.

The program is titled “Jens Jensen: The Living Green.�

It shows his rise from being a street sweeper in an impoverished, immigrant area in Chicago to becoming the foremost landscaping architect of his time.

Jensen imagined, then designed, beautiful parks in the middle of cities such as Chicago, but his passion was developing community gardens to feed the poor.

Jensen understood that to further his community works, he needed income.

He earned funds by designing the landscaping around mansions, especially in the Midwest, for wealthy clients such as Henry Ford and his son, Edsel.

Through his connection to Edsel Ford, Jensen designed the Ideal Section of the Lincoln Highway near Dyer, Ind. The Lincoln Highway Association turned to him later to design the thousands of concrete

Jens Jensen markers the Boy Scouts erected in 1928 to mark the Lincoln Highway’s coast-to-coast route.

The documentary has something for everyone: a slice of Lincoln Highway history, Jensen’s battle with corrupt politicians in Chicago, his projects to grow fresh produce to the poor, the history of parks in Chicago (he also designed Huntley Park in DeKalb), his critical role in preserving the sand dunes along Lake Michigan which became the Indiana Dunes National Landshore, and his work as the premiere landscape architect to the leading captains of industry of the early 20th Century.

The documentary’s filmmaker, Carey Lundin, will lead a discussion following the film.

Tickets are $7 for the general audience or $5 for students, and seniors age 65 and older.

Tickets are available from the Egyptian Theatre at http://egyptiantheatre. org/ For more information about the documentary, go to http://www. jensjensenthelivinggreen. org/.

Perfect day to help clean up the river From A1 north of the dam we have permission from the owner to go on those islands so hopefully we will do some good work out there.”

Volunteers took boats, canoes, and kayaks to get to the island to clean up.

“We are going to get the islands and we have the volunteers to clean it,” said Nehrkorn.

The weather was perfect for the volunteers with clear skies and temperatures in the 50s.

“It is great weather today,” said Nehrkorn. “It is going to be beautiful out there. It is a little chilly but is a great day.”

Volunteers of all ages came out to assist with the river sweep.

There were members of the Cub Scouts and Boy Scouts along with adults who wanted to help out.

Thirteen-year-old Trevor Drayton, Forreston, came out with Oregon Troop 52.

“We are here to help clean up the river basically,” said Drayton. “I did this last year also. It is fun to help out

again.”

Drayton is a Life Rank in the Boy Scouts and his troop was helping clean the river from Oregon Park East north past the old boat docks on River Road.

First year volunteer Dan Stoehr, Freeport, stopped by with his kayak to help clean the hard to reach areas of the river.

He said with his kayak he would be able to get right

along the shore where a boat would have trouble reaching the trash.

Another volunteer was Ken Williams, Oregon.

“It is amazing what you find,” he said.

It’s the start of another school year at OES and while many things have stayed the same, this year there are some noticeable changes.

A reoccurring event, National Anthem Day Celebration, will be taking place on Friday, Sept. 19 at 8:10 a.m. by the OES flag pole.

This event will showcase third through sixth grade students singing the National Anthem as well as a few other patriotic songs.

Everyone in the community is encouraged to attend.

Following the celebration, parents, friends and veterans are invited to a special breakfast of muffins, orange

juice and grapes.

New to the scene are the three OES general music teachers: Katherine Donnelly, Katie Sheridan and Justine Davis.

Donnelly is a first year teacher from Walnut who graduated from Bradley University and student taught in the Mendota School District.

Sheridan joins the elementary school after a full day at the David L. Rahn Junior High and the Oregon High School where she also directs the choirs.

Davis is a veteran teacher who lives in Mt. Morris but taught in Polo for several years before joining OES.

Sheriff’s administration building is taking shape

By Chris Johnson Reporter The new Ogle County Sheriff’s Administration Building is taking shape. “The building is starting to show physical changes,� said Ogle County Long Range Planning Commission chairman Don Griffin Tuesday morning. “You see a lot of changes happening with the exterior of the building.

Brick layers are on site and anyone driving past the construction site can start to see how the building will look when complete. “The exterior walls are up and workers were installing fiber board insulation and laying bricks,� said Griffin. “Some of the decorative bricks were also installed.�

Work on the exterior will continue for the next two months.

Griffin is cautiously optimistic that the building will be completely enclosed

from the weather in November. “We are looking to be closed up by November and be working on the inside,� he said. “I think the contractors are doing a good job with the project.�

The cement floor was poured this week and the sheet metal has been installed on the roof. “There is still a lot of work to be completed before the interior of the building can be worked on,� said Griffin.

Once the site was prepared, there have been few issues with the project. “There have been no real issues but there are little things that always come up on projects of these magnitudes,� said Griffin. “You learn a lot about a project with the small change orders.�

He said the employees that will be using the new building have had input to make sure Brick layers from A-One Group were working on setting up the first courses of brick on the new Ogle County Turn to A12 Sheriff’s Administration Building. Photo by Chris Johnson

Public Voice Time to work together now to help businesses Dear Editor, My name is J. Stephen Moehle, son of the late Robert and Eleanor Moehle, and I grew up in Oregon.

I learned that Ace is closing and now you have the following businesses empty: Old Napa store, Sullivan’s, Bemis Ford dealership, Fun and Sun downtown, old lumber yard, many, many, empty stores, Ace Hardware.

The people who live in Oregon better wake up and form a group that will work to get the above businesses occupied.

Can’t the city council or the Chamber of Commerce do something and if you don’t you will have more businesses closing, more homes for sale, and a continued decline in student enrollment.

Just think if those empty stores were occupied and how it would apply to the sales tax. You need to have a town meeting at the Coliseum, and it needs to be done now!

Sincerely, J. Stephen Moehle, Vernon Hills

Mt. Morris food pantry offers thanks for help Dear Editor, Thank you doesn’t begin to say how grateful we are for the support our yard sale received this past weekend.

New building to replace old one From A11 everything is how it needs to be.

Changing an outlet location is an easy change before the walls are covered with drywall.

Griffin said there are meetings held where everyone involved in the construction provides updates. Any issues with the building are addressed during these meetings.

The $4.1 million building will replace the old sheriff’s administration building the county received from the E.D. Etnyre Company.

“That building has served its purpose and now we can afford to do something to get

a building that will serve the public,” said Griffin.

Technology needs have changed over the years and the new building will accommodate it, he said.

The new building will also be fully handicapped accessible and have adequate restroom facilities for the employees.

Currently the Ogle County Workers install the fiber board insulation on the walls of the south side of the new Sheriff’s Administration Building Emergency Management Sept. 5 while bricklayers began work on the north side of the building.

Griffin said a county committee is discussing if OCEMA will have an office in the new administration building or have an office in the courthouse.

Forreston chief offers comments during meeting

Village officials have heard several complaints about the Forreston Police Department but they are unfounded, according to village president Michael Harn.

Harn told the village board Sept. 2 that the department is

doing a good job.

“I think they are doing a wonderful job,” said Harn.

“People hear horror stories.

We do not pick on people.

If you get arrested you did something wrong.”

Complaints are taken seriously, however. Harn said he would like the public to know how much the department helps the community.

“If you hear stupid comments about the police department please correct them,” said Harn. “Don’t complain when an officer is

having lunch at Subway.”

He said one person complained that an officer was targeting a bar patron because the officer was having lunch next door.

“We are also not arresting the elderly for jaywalking,” said Harn.

There have been several complaints about juveniles wandering around the village at night.

“We have had a problem with people wandering at night,” said police chief Mike Boomgarden. “Contact us about suspicious activities.”

There are also problems with several individuals walking down the middle of the street.

During the board meeting Boomgarden and Harn had to go outside to talk with an individual that was walking down the middle of Ill. 72 by the village hall.

Boomgarden said pedestrians need to walk on the sidewalk or on the edge of the road on streets without a sidewalk.

“We do not go after jaywalkers,” said Boomgarden.

Polo beats AFC 44-12 Shaw Media For the game’s first 23 1/2 minutes, Ashton-Franklin Center found one sure-fire way to slow Polo’s dangerous quickfire offense – keep it off the field.

But the visiting Marcos proved they didn’t have to be on the field for long to show their might, utilizing their array of weapons and speed advantage to pull away with an efficient 44-12 victory over the Raiders in NUIC Upstate action on Sept. 12.

With the win, Polo improves to 2-0 with hopes of being a contender in the Upstate division. The Marcos will face perhaps their stiffest challenge yet next week against 2-0 Stockton, which hasn’t lost a regular season game since 2011.

Junior high team opens 2014 season The David L. Rahn Junior High seventh grade girls’ volleyball team opened their 2014 campaign on Aug. 26 when they hosted West Carroll for two matches.

In the night’s first match, both sides struggled with their serving. Then the Eagle’s Samantha Merrill stepped to the line and contributed seven service points to aid in the 21-16 victory.

In game two, Merrill again helped the Eagles to a 2119 win with seven service points.

In game three, both teams had warmed up.The Eagles prevailed in a close contest, 17-15.

In the second match, DLR struggled with their serving and service reception in game one and lost 7-21. The Eagles woes continued in game two as they fell to West Carroll, 11-21.

Game three was closer but with the poor serving from the home team, DLR dropped the game and match, 10-15.

Two days later, the Eagles were back in action when the Amboy Vikings came to DLR. The first two servers for the visitors stepped up and caused havoc for the Eagles.

Amboy won game one, 9-25.

Game two was more of the same as the Eagle’s struggles with serve reception continued. The Eagles fell to Amboy, 10-25.

Game three was closer as Eagle Ashley McCormick had four service points for DLR. In the end, Amboy won the game and match, 20-25.

After the long holiday weekend, the Eagles traveled to Dixon Reagan on Sept. 4, for a two-match contest. The Eagles were much improved in game one as they were victorious, 25-18. Katelyn Weber had six service points to lead the team.

Dixon’s serving came alive in game two to win, 14-25.

Game three was close as the Eagles worked hard to pass, set and attack. They dropped the game, 13-15.

In the afternoon’s second match, the Eagles again showed improvement in serving and reception. A few too many Eagle errors gave Dixon the 20-25 win. Game two was close as well. The Eagles had trouble handling two Reagan servers and lost 22-25.

The Eagles came back to take game three, 15-4, thanks to Weber’s 10straight serves.

DLR opens Route 72 Conference play next week when they host Byron and A-FC.

“We want to compete for the conference championship,” Polo coach Andrew Hofer said. “We’re going to have to raise our game next week against Stockton. They’re at the spot right now where we want to be.”

The win wasn’t as worryfree for the Marcos as the scoreboard suggests; AFC fought tooth-and-nail with Polo for most of the first half, after being throttled by the Marcos 62-6 last year.

Behind a methodical, patient, and effective running game led by bruising junior fullback Jake Hageman (25 carries, 85 yards), the Raiders (0-2) held the ball for more than 15 minutes in the first half, and pulled within 22-12 late in the final minute before halftime on a 1-yard sneak by quarterback Jake Hilliker.

That’s when the quickstrike Marcos went to work, however. Junior running back Brad Cavanaugh split wide and hauled in a hail mary from Brody Grobe for a 53-yard touchdown with just eight seconds left in the second quarter.

“Brody just threw a great pass and I caught it,” Cavanaugh said. “We have a lot of speed and power. We can run and pass. We can do anything it.”

The strike was a

backbreaker for the Raiders.

“Our kid was in perfect position,” AFC coach Brad Winterland said. “It was just a perfect catch by their kid.”

Making matters worse, Polo received the ball to start the third quarter and proceeded to slice right through the Raiders defense in four plays, capped by a 5-yard TD run by Cavanaugh that made the score 36-10 and ruined any AFC hope at victory.

The Marcos racked up nearly 500 yards of offense, averaging more than eight yards per play. Grobe finished the night 16-of-21 passing for 236 yards and two scores, with Cavanaugh his favorite target, finishing with six catches for 89 yards.

For the Raiders, it was a similar fate as last week’s loss to Aquin – a solid first-half effort that netted no reward on the final scoreboard.

“We had a good gameplan; they’re just a good football team,” said Winterland, whose team will try to rebound next week at River Ridge. “The hardest part is getting the kids to understand that we’re doing good things, but we’ve seen it time and time again in this conference that teams go 0-2 and still make the playoffs. We’ve got Polo’s Brody Grobe slips past AFC’s Bobby Larke. Photo by Alex T. Paschal, Sauk to get ready for next week.”

Cardinals put up solid offensive effort in 55-7 win

By Chris Johnson Reporter

Max Barkalow got the first of his touchdowns at the 9:04 mark in the quarter.

The Cardinals defense forced South Beloit into a quick three and out and Forreston went back to receive the punt.

During the punt, the ball wobbled and ended up barely touching the foot of a Cardinals player and South Beloit recovered the ball.

The Forreston defense held strong and forced another SOBO punt with 6:52 to play in the first.

Robert DeVries found a hole in the SOBO defense with 6:24 in the first on a 60 yard touchdown run up the Forreston sideline.

Forreston had a 21-0 lead after the extra point.

The Cardinals defense forced another punt with 5:53 to go in the first quarter.

At this point Barkalow had a 40 yard rush and almost scored but was stopped just short of the goal line.

Cruthis received the ball on the next play and rumbled across the goal line for a Cardinals touchdown.

Forreston was up 28-0.

This next drive was one the Forreston defense will look back on and correct some minor mistakes to improve the team going forward this season.

A couple played later with 8:49 on the clock, Barkalow recovered a SOBO fumble to give the Cardinals offense the ball on the 37 yard line.

Forreston had a 42-7 lead.

South Beloit started to drive down the field but again turned the ball over on downs with 5:24 in the half.

The Cardinals were moving the ball down the field when DeVries connected with Aaron Shelton for a long touchdown pass with 3:03 to go in the half.

Forreston missed the extra point so the game was 48-7.

The Cardinals would have

another chance to score in the half when Noah Gipe intercepted a ball with just over two minutes left to play in the half. However, the half ended before Forreston could drive down the field.

With a 41 point lead, the second half began with a continuous clock.

Forreston ended up scoring one final time to defeat South Beloit 55-7.

The win gives the Cardinals a 2-0 record.

They will be on the road Sept. 12 when they take on West Carroll.

Sports Column School district modifies drug, alcohol policy

By Andy Colbert Reporter Starting this year, Oregon has modified its athletic and activities policy in regard to drugs and alcohol.

Instead of being suspended

for 25 percent of the season for a first offense, students are now given the opportunity to do community service.

Additionally, parents are to become more involved through a required meeting with the principal on a first offense by their son or daughter.

“The board and administration are looking for a way to get parents involved and give them more influence when it comes

to dealing with the poor choices some children make,” Oregon superintendent Tom Mahoney said. “The board and administration believe this policy places the responsibility, initially, where it should be, in the home.”

“What the board is saying to families is this – ‘we are not out to get you, but to help your student make better decisions’,” Oregon athletic and activities director Mike Lawton said.

As far as a second offense, there will definitely be punitive measures taken by the school.

Some of the coaches are unhappy with the change in policy. The school of thought is that it may diminish team discipline and morale.

Commit an offense and still get to play. What does that say to the rest of the team?

By their very nature, athletic conduct policies are controversial.

Here are some complaints I’ve heard over the years: “My kid didn’t drink, but just happened to be at a party where alcohol was served.

Why is she being punished by the school?”

“Those other kids do it all the time and never get caught.

That’s not fair.”

“I couldn’t help but notice that a basketball player is out for golf so his suspension applies to that sport instead of basketball.”

“Even though my kid was caught drinking, so what. At that age, kids will be kids.”

“Did you hear about a star athlete from another school that was caught at a big drinking party? How come their school let him play against us?”

The list goes on and on.

When school districts get in the business of monitoring student behavior outside of school hours and school grounds, a myriad of complexities develop.

The Glenbard West school district is currently

experiencing this. A summer drinking party resulted in the suspension of 30 students in activities ranging from football, basketball, volleyball, cheerleading, dance and soccer.

The unrest by a large contingent of parents over what they see as unfair and overly harsh treatment made for Chicago television and newspaper coverage.

There’s probably somebody’s lawyer lurking about, further muddling the mess.

Back to Oregon’s policy.

I like the shift from the school board being the sole enforcer of the athletic code.

Ultimately, it’s the parents’ responsibility to provide discipline to their children.

A school is in the business to educate them.

That’s what I remember as a youth growing up in the 1960s and 70s. We went to school to learn and primary source of discipline came from home.

If we were out for a sport, that particular coach would lay out the rules. And, the coach would be the one to administer the punishment, not a school board or athletic director.

It was much easier time to be a coach because of so much more discipline at home. Parents would also not challenge a coach’s decisionmaking as much either.

Nowadays, lawyers, board members and administrators in schools across the land spend an inordinate amount

Andy Colbert

of time and energy attempting to appease the masses with policy-making, when the whole thing could be as simple as what the legendary Geneseo football coach Bob Reade told his players as a code of conduct – act like gentlemen and be polite.

Sure, that’s overly simplistic, but it worked amazingly well for Reade as he instilled discipline in his teams.

One function the coaches at Oregon have at their disposal is the ability to lay down their own rules in regard to team and personal conduct.

If you feel strongly about suspending an athlete for a first alcohol offense, go for it.

The only suggestion I would make is that in this day and age, you’ll probably need to be more specific than what Bob Reade used as his code of conduct.

family communication plan along with an emergency supply kit that can be used in all types of hazards, which is a key step and has to be prepared beforehand.

The third basic measure is knowing how to receive emergency alerts and local emergency plans for shelter, evacuation, local emergency contacts, and local advance alerts and warnings.

The final basic protective measure is to consider safety as well as mental and physical well-being while recovering from a disaster.

Each disaster is different and the decisions that have to be made for each disaster is different.

Examples for different disasters include natural

disasters, terrorist hazards, pandemics, home fires, etc.

Know how to plan for specific needs before a disaster.

Special needs include kids, animals, seniors, disabilities, business owners, schools, etc.

Many helpful materials for developing a special needs plan may be found at www. ready.gov.

Business emergency plans should include five steps: program management; planning; implementation; testing and exercises; and program improvement.

Other publications are available for pet owners, seniors, etc.

Resources for building a kit are available at www.ready. gov/kit or for kids at www.

ready.gov/kids/build-a-kit .

These resources have handy tips such as: have a flashlight and extra batteries, have a minimum of a threeday supply of one gallon of water for each person in your household, and include cash in your kit as ATMs and credit card machines most likely will not function in a power outage.

A list of the basics that should be included in any emergency kit is provided at the website.

Guidelines for creating a winter storm kit are included.

A winter storm kit is a must for winters in Ogle County.

Sept. 30 is America’s PrepareAthon.

The PrepareAthon is a national call to action for

everyone in our communities to take action steps to prepare for the event of a disaster.

We Remember Those We Lost

9.11.01 Honoring Those Impacted

By September 11 September 11, 2001, is a day permanently etched in history. 9-11 carries profound meaning for many people and stands in infamy along with events like Pearl Harbor and the assassinations of President John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. The attacks on 9-11 resulted in a total of 2,996 fatalities. Among those were the victims on the four planes, civilians working in the towers and on the ground, military personnel and civilians in the Pentagon, and first-responders to the scenes. It is believed that at least 200 people in the World Trade Center fell or jumped to their deaths from the burning towers because rescue was improbable at or above points of impact on the towers.

Along with the World Trade Center primary towers, many other buildings in the area were destroyed or

badly damaged from the attack. Many buildings were condemned.

The Pentagon suffered serious damage as well.

Thousands of first responders and civilians entered the affected buildings to search for or help people exit the carnage. As of 2010, it is believed that more than 800 of these responders have also died, some say from illnesses related to their heroic efforts.

While the world is quick to focus on the extensive damage and loss of life that ensued as a result of this terrible day, it also is important to focus on the survivors and those who risked their own lives to save people from burning and collapsing buildings.

There are a number of ways to honor the legacy of these brave people. * Establish a memorial at your home, in a neighborhood park or at a place of worship.

While many memorials exist, there is certainly room for more memorials devoted to the heroes of September 11. * Host a family gettogether on or around September 11.

Celebrate the life of those people who were lost on that day and focus on the positive memories. * Initiate a scholarship fund in memory of a lost relative or friend.

Many businesses or even the place of employment of the deceased may be willing to contribute money to the effort. This way the individual's name will live on and be associated with something positive for years to come. * Volunteer time at a firehouse in the area or with an EMT unit.

Volunteer EMTs and fire fighters are in short supply. Becoming a part of one of these units enables people to help others. * Survivors can share

their stories with school children or others, imparting knowledge about the events as they unfolded. This is a strong lesson in American history and bravery. * Make a donation to a charity that offers financial support to those impacted by the events of 9-11. Be sure to check out the charity to ensure that funds are appropriated properly. * Plan a visit to downtown New York City to see the progress that has been made in rebuilding the area, and visit the memorial that has opened to honor those who lost their lives.

While September 11, 2001, will live in infamy as a traumatic and horrific moment in American history, people can focus on the positive aspect of the heroes and find ways to honor their memories.

A Tribute to Our Heroes On this day and every day, let’s not forget the important role emergency rescue personnel play in helping and protecting our communities. Their courage and strength make us proud to be Americans.

We will never forget the Victims & Heroes of 9/11

Home of the Brave It shows amazing courage to run headfirst into a life-threatening situation when common sense says otherwise. Yet on 9-11 that’s exactly what hundreds of brave officers and firefighters did. They held true to their duty to protect and rescue their fellow citizens, and many heroically sacrificed their lives in the process.

To police officers and firefighters everywhere, you have our eternal gratitude.

We Remember Those We Lost

9.11.01 The National 9/11 Pentagon Memorial

Pentagon Memorial The 184 souls lost in the terrorist attack at the Pentagon on Sept.

11, 2001, when hijacked American Airlines Flight 77 crashed into the Pentagon, were mothers, fathers, husbands, wives, children, brothers, sisters, coworkers, flight crew, friends, patriots.

The Pentagon Memorial captures that moment in time at 9:37 a.m. when 184 lives became intertwined for eternity. Each victim’s age and location at the time of the attack have been permanently inscribed into the Memorial by the unique placement and direction of each of the 184 Memorial Units.

Elegant and simple, the Pentagon Memorial serves as a timeline of the victims’ ages,

spanning from the youngest victim, threeyear-old Dana Falkenberg, who was on board American Airlines Flight 77, to the oldest, John D. Yamnicky, 71, a Navy veteran, also aboard Flight 77 that morning.

The Pentagon Memorial Gateway The 184 Memorial Units within the Pentagon Memorial are located on the age line according to the year the victim was born.

The age lines, denoted by stainless steel strips that cross the Memorial, begin at the zero line, which spans from the Gateway to the entrance of the Memorial. Etched into the granite zero line is the date and time of the attack: “SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 9:37 A.M.” Visitors to the Memorial may look up a vic-

tim’s name and birth year on the locator stone within the Pentagon Memorial Gateway. On age lines with multiple victims, the Memorial Units are organized by birth date along that line.

The Memorial Units Each Memorial Unit is a cantilevered bench, a lighted pool of flowing water, and a permanent tribute, by name, to each victim, in one single element. Each memorial bench is made of stainless steel and inlaid with smooth granite. Each Memorial Unit contains a pool of water, reflecting light in the evenings onto the bench and surrounding gravel field.

Each Memorial Unit is also specifically positioned in the Memorial to distinguish victims who were in the Pentagon

from those who were on board American Airlines Flight 77. At the 125 Memorial Units honoring the victims of the Pentagon, visitors see the victim’s name and the Pentagon in the same view. At the Memorial Units honoring the 59 lives lost on Flight 77, the visitor sees the victim’s name and the direction of the plane’s approach in the same view.

Victims from the same family are linked by a plaque at the end of the pool of water, which lists their family members who also died in the attack, forever binding the family together.

The Pentagon Memorial Landscape Within the Pentagon Memorial, 85 Crape Myrtle trees are clustered around the Memorial Units, but

are not dedicated to any one victim. These trees will grow up to 30 feet to provide a canopy of shade over the Memorial for years to come.

The Memorial’s stabilized gravel surface is bordered on the western edge by an Age Wall. The Age Wall grows one inch per year in height above the perimeter bench relative to the age lines. As visitors move through the Memorial, the wall gets higher, growing from three inches (the age of Dana Falkenberg) to 71 inches (the age of John D. Yamnicky). The Age Wall draws the eye to the Memorial for drivers passing by on Washington Boulevard and the adjacent Arlington County Bike Path, while ensuring solitude for visitors.

Ornamental grasses

mark the boundaries of the Memorial.

The Pentagon Memorial design was developed by Julie Beckman and Keith Kaseman. Their vision for the Memorial was selected from more than 1,100 submissions by a panel of architects, family members, and public figures in the Washington, D.C., area, including two former Secretaries of Defense.

The Pentagon Memorial is the first national memorial dedicated to the horrific events that unfolded on Sept. 11, 2001 – events that claimed 184 lives at the Pentagon, and thousands more around the United States. The Pentagon Memorial is also dedicated to future generations that they might reflect upon and renew their faith in shared American values.

In Honor of all who were lost on that day.

We continue to support and will never forget FDNY 343!

SEPTEMBER 11, 2001 in memory of all those who were taken from us on that terrible day.

Astrograph Take charge and make things happen Thursday, September 11, 2014 Evaluate your past, present and plans for the future. Once you have considered everything, make the necessary adjustments that will help you accomplish your goals. You are the only one who can bring about these changes, so take charge and make things happen.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -- Don’t lend or borrow anything today. Go over your banking records to make sure you haven’t overestimated your balance.

You should curb unnecessary expenditures in order to get back on track.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -- Make the most of your day, regardless of what others say.

Take control and show everyone what you are capable of doing.

Your intuition will lead you in the right direction.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You will not get far by being a spectator. Get involved in events that will help shape your future and change your life. Remember to leave some time for romance.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- Expect the unexpected, and turn a negative into a positive. Don’t stop or let

anyone sidetrack you. It’s up to you to stay on track if you plan to reach your goal.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- Don’t let your emotions goad you into making a costly mistake. You know what has to be done in order to get ahead.

When something doesn’t run smoothly, assess matters and reset your course.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- Don’t let past mistakes hold you back. Chalk them up to experience and get on with your life. Incorporate entertainment into your schedule to boost your spirits.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Tie up loose ends. Finish half-completed projects so you can begin to move forward.

Procrastination is the enemy and will stand in the way of your future goals.

-- It won’t do you any good to force your ideas on others.

Surround yourself with friends and allies, and avoid getting into competitive situations that could harm your relationships.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -- Love and romance are on the rise. Your instincts will be strong, and you will know just how to win people over. Trust your intuition and follow your aspirations.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- You will have a tendency to be overly dramatic. If you practice patience, the solution will come to you, so don’t waste your energy with emotional displays or volatile disagreements.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -Your high energy level has you headed in the right direction.

Don’t slow down or look back; you must keep your goals in sight if you wish to fulfill your dreams.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- Your patience will be tested.

Stay calm and observe what’s going on around you. Getting angry will do more harm than good. If you must participate, be the mediator, not the dictator.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20)
