City agrees to help with ambulance’s fuel cost

By Chris Johnson Reporter The Oregon City Council will spend up to $6,000 to assist with fuel costs for ambulance service in the city limits.

“We were approached by the fire department for assistance between Aug. 21 and April 30, the end of our fiscal year,” said commissioner Ken Williams Tuesday night. “The City of Oregon would cover fuel

costs within the city limits.”

The $6,000 amount is the estimated cost of fuel that would be used by the end of the fiscal year.

Williams said 92 percent of ambulance calls have been within the city limits.

“This is outside the budget but we have public health reserve funds,” said Williams. “This would put us over budget but I am okay with it.”

The council unanimously approved the expense.

In the 44 days since Aug. 21, the fuel cost was $974.18.

Mayor Tom Stone asked why the ambulance is unable to use the city pumps to fill up.

“The ATS ambulance will not run on the bio-fuel but

By Vinde Wells Editor Repairs to the Black Hawk statue may be delayed until spring, but at least the beloved icon will likely spend the winter wrapped in a protective blanket.

Frank Rausa, Sterling, said Tuesday that the statue will be “tented” with tarps for the winter to protect it from further damage from the elements.

“We have to. We have no choice,” he said.

Rausa is a member of the Friends of the Black Hawk Statue, the organization spear-heading restoration efforts and fundraising for the project.

The work, which was expected to begin first in June and then August for sure, has been delayed while Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) officials go over the proposed contract for a repair plan put together

by experts from Thornton Tomasetti, Chicago, an architectural firm that provides engineering design, investigation, and analysis services to clients worldwide.

“We’re still waiting for Springfield to issue the contracts,” Rausa said.

The IDNR and the Illinois Historic Preservation Agency (IHPA) both approved the plan back in August, but IDNR officials must approve the contract before the work can begin.

The IDNR’s approval was required because the statue, which overlooks the Rock River from a high bluff at Lowden State Park near Oregon, is under that agency’s jurisdiction.

Because the statue has landmark status, the IHPA also had to sign off. Black Hawk has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 2009.

Rausa said he met with IDNR officials three weeks ago and was told by their attorney that the contract could be approved as early as Dec. 31.

“It’s a little discouraging,” he said. “We’re hoping

we’ll have a wonderful new year, and we have a signed contract.”

Created by sculptor Lorado Taft in 1910 as a tribute to all Native Americans, the statue draws thousands of visitors each year. It was unveiled and dedicated in 1911.

The effects of time and weather have caused parts of the 50-foot concrete monolith to crumble and fall off.

Testing and evaluations done a year ago and earlier this year by Thornton Tomasetti showed that three areas of the statue are in dire

need of repairs.

Chunks of the concrete have fallen from the folded arms of the statue, and more areas are loose and ready to fall.

If one contractor installs a pipe or a wire in the wrong spot, it could have a ripple effect with all future trades that come in throughout the project.

Preliminary work has proved to be vital with parts of the project.

“We ran a lot of the electrical conduit under the floors,” said Suthers. “When roughing in the walls they were where they needed to be.”

Workers were framing the interior rooms of the building last week with metal stud walls. They had the majority of the walls on the north half of the building framed and were working to the south.

Pete Harkness Auto Group has now established a presence in Ogle County.

The Brian Bemis Auto Mall, located on Ill. 2 in Oregon, officially became Pete Harkness of Oregon on Tuesday.

The deal for Harkness to buy the dealership had been in the works for quite a while, and the signage was being prepared for the ownership change last week.

Harkness now has a used vehicle lot in Rock Falls, and five new vehicle dealerships – two in Sterling, and one in Oregon, Morrison, and Centerville, Iowa.

Owner Pete Harkness said he is excited by how good of a strategic fit the Oregon site is.

“This gives us a presence in the Rock River Valley and fits well with our footprint,” he said. “We try to space out a geographic path for our customers.”

Harkness said the planned cosmetic changes in Oregon have already been done.

“We’ve done facility updates in the last month,” he said. “We’re just going to implement procedures to take care of the customers.”

The brands carried at the dealership – Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram – will remain the same, Harkness said.

The staff will also remain intact. All 25 of the Bemis employees in Oregon will stay with Harkness, the boss said.

“We kept everybody employed, and we’re planning to add more soon,” Harkness said.

Harkness, originally from DeKalb, said his personal ties run deep in the Rock River Valley, making the acquisition even more exciting.

“I really love that area,” he said. “My great-greatgrandfather on my father’s side came from Pennsylvania by wagon train, crossed the Rock River, and settled in Oregon. I have family buried near Conover Square – the roots are there on both sides.”

Harkness said taking an active role in the towns he serves is always a priority.

“This is a great opportunity for us, and I look forward to supporting our new local communities,” he said.

Brian Bemis Automotive Group has dealerships in Sycamore and DeKalb.

Council agrees to help ambulance with fuel costs From A1 Following the meeting Travis confirmed the plan.

“We are selling one ambulance and fixing up the second,” said Travis. “This ambulance would be manned by the fire department.”

Travis said trained EMTs in the fire department will go on calls.

He said the second ambulance should be ready

by December.

The main ambulance is owned by ATS Medical Services, Loves Park, a private company contracted by the fire department to cover calls after the Oregon Ambulance Service, Inc. closed in June.

Fire department officials plan to place a referendum

on the April ballot to pay for ambulance service in the future.

Travis said the fire board of trustees is looking at a tax of 35 cents per $100 of equalized assessed valuation to fund the ambulance service, which is the same as the current tax for fire protection.

He said they will discuss a resolution in November to place the referendum on the ballot.

Once the resolution is approved, Travis said a committee will work to educate the public about the referendum.

The fire department will also hold town hall meetings before the election.

“This ambulance service [ATS] has been working very well,” said Travis. “We

have had a lot of positive comments.”

The Oregon Ambulance Service, Inc., a private notfor-profit corporation, closed its doors June 17 due to financial issues, leaving the Oregon Fire District without an ambulance service.

Neighboring fire departments, all of which have tax-supported ambulance services, covered Oregon calls until the fire district hired ATS on July 1.

The fire district is paying ATS $6,000 a month to keep an ambulance and crew at the fire station around the clock.

ATS also charges patients for its services.

In August, the managers of the Oregon Ambulance Service, Inc., gave its building at 101 Madison St.

Repairs for statue delayed again From A1 lack of a signed contract, Rausa said.

The scaffolding will be rented over the winter because that is more cost effective than putting it up and taking it down repeatedly, he said.

The rental charge is $75 per day.

“That’s gobbling up money we could have spent on the repairs,” he said.

As much as $900,000 may be needed for the project, but

currently $745,000 of that has been raised.

Rausa said he is currently meeting with possible donors in Chicago and is talking with the Washington Redskins professional football team about a contribution.

Nearly half the money already raised for the project came from a $350,000 grant the IDNR received from the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity.

The rest came from donations, as well as funds raised during the annual Oregon Trail Days festival held at Lowden Park from 2010 to this year.

A large contributor was the Jeffris Family Foundation, Janesville, Wis., which gave a $150,000 matching grant.

Donations can be mailed to Illinois Conservation Foundation, One Natural Resources Way, Springfield IL 62702.

Ogle County Chairman Kim Gouker got a draft report of the administrative tow fund’s forensic audit Tuesday.

The final report likely will be presented during a special meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 20 either at 2 or 3 p.m., Gouker said, adding that the exact time will be set during the county’s Executive Committee meeting, which was this Tuesday.

Gouker declined to discuss details of the draft report, but said it was comprehensive.

Any changes to the report between now and the final one will be done to add context for residents and board members.

Nothing will be removed from the draft, he said.

Sikich, the Naperville-

based company that did the forensic audit, will present it and the findings during the special meeting and then again during the county board’s regular meeting at 5:30 p.m. that night.

The forensic audit started in July, after it was approved by the board in April.

The initial agreement paid Sikich up to $7,500; the work was expected to take a few weeks, depending on what was found.

In August, the auditors requested more time and money – up to an additional $7,500 – because the fund was “disorganized,” Gouker said the auditors told him.

Last month, during the county board meeting, Gouker told members he and vice chairman John Finfrock met with a representative from Sikich, who said the fund’s records were “very sloppy” and as a result there are “more questions than there are answers,” according to the meeting’s minutes.

Gouker also said at the meeting that he put together a list of things Sikich needed to prepare its final report and passed it along to Sheriff Michael Harn.

The fund was established by county ordinance in 2011 as a way to supplement the sheriff’s department’s diminishing budgets and help with vehicle repairs and purchases.

At the time, the sheriff was given discretion to spend the funds, collected from a $350 tow fee, for any purpose.

In the tow fund’s first three years, Harn used the fund to pay for a tent for the county fair, flowers for Secretary’s Day, and a $4,000 management fee for the department’s Facebook page, in addition to vehicle purchases and repairs.

The county board later restricted what the fund could be used for, its sources of revenue, and transferred its control to the Ogle County Treasurer’s Office.

The Oregon Republican Reporter is published weekly by Ogle County Newspapers, a division of the B.F. Shaw Printing Co. The Oregon Republican Reporter was founded in 1851 as the Ogle County Reporter. In 1889, the Ogle County Republican, a competing newspaper, was started. In 1890, the Republican was sold to Ziba Landers. Upon his death in 1939, the newspaper was assumed by his son, Ernest D. In March 1951, Paul F. Behan, owner of the Reporter, and E.D. Landers and his son E.G. (Tim) Landers united the newspapers into the Republican Reporter. Ernest D. Landers died in 1966, and E.G. and Behan became partners. Eventually, E.G. Landers assumed sole ownership, and in 1985 he sold the newspaper to B.F.

Answers revealed about Civil War veteran Butterfield was discharged before deadly explosion 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 Finally, answers after two years of wondering why J.A. B. Butterfield, a Civil War vet, died on the Sultana and is buried in our Oregon Riverside Cemetery.

John and Sandy O’ Rorke became interested in the history of James Butterfield when I mentioned at the Memorial Day service that there were 17 Civil War Vets including James buried at Riverside Cemetery.

This piqued their interest because John’s greatgrandfather James O’Rorke, a Civil War vet from Rochelle, also died on a steamboat carrying Civil War soldiers.

Several weeks later while I was working at the depot, John and Sandy gave me the results of their research.

They obtained 23 love letters from James to Kate Snider that he wrote to her

from Cairo, Ill., and Birds Point, Mo., while he was in the Civil War. These were obtained from the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum in Springfield.

Sandy and John also obtained a series of pension forms filed on behalf of Anna Butterfield applying for a Mothers Dependent Pension.

These records were obtained from the National Archives and Records Administration.

The love letters and pension forms supplied a history of J. A. B. Butterfield and his parents Anna and Sewell.

Finally the mystery was solved thanks to John and Sandy.

The following information about the Butterfield family is from documents filed under pension claim number 355789.

Anna married Sewell Butterfield about 1830-1832 at Westmoreland, Cheshire, N.H. There was no record of their marriage.

They had one child named James born 1833 in Boston, Mass.

In 1838 when James was 5 years old the family moved to Grand Detour. While they lived in Grand Detour his father was a cooper.

When James was 15 or 16 years old he moved to Oregon

J.A.B. Butterfield’s father Sewell is buried in a cemetery in Grand Detour. Photo by Otto Dick J.A.B. Butterfield poses for a photo in his uniform.

and his mother moved back East after her husband died.

James settled in Oregon and studied law with Attorney Henry Mix. After he obtained his law degree he went into partnership with H. A. Mix and established a law office in Rochelle.

We have no record of how he obtained his degree.

During the Civil War, when James was 25 years

old and living in Rochelle, he joined Company A of the Second Illinois U.S. Calvary Unit.

They listed his personal characteristics as hair light, eyes blue, complexion light, marital status single and occupation, lawyer.

He mustered in Aug. 14, 1861 for a period of three years at Camp Butler.

When his term expired he was discharged Aug. 11, 1864

with the rank of sergeant.

His mother Anna lived in Nashua, N. H. when he enlisted.

After his discharge he is listed as living in New Orleans for nine months before boarding the boat Sultana with the intention of returning to Oregon.

One of the Anna Butterfield pension papers said he worked for the government during this time.

After the explosion of the Sultana John R. Petrie,

his friend from Oregon and another comrade, retrieved the body five miles below the explosion scene.

His mother Anna by a special act received a $12 per month pension starting April 18, 1890.

James is buried by his girl friend’s family at Riverside, his father Sewell is buried in Grand Detour and his mother is buried in New Hampshire.

One report said his mother was called Aunty and was a nice old lady.

Stillman Valley native Bruce Roe will take home a $300 prize for winning the “I Love CUB” Photo Contest, Citizens Utility Board (CUB) officials announced Friday.

CUB hosted the photo contest to give Illinois consumers the opportunity to show off their homes and communities in honor of the watchdog organization’s 30th anniversary.

“The contest was CUB’s way of saying ‘thank you’ to our supporters from Cairo to Chicago,” CUB Communications Director Jim Chilsen said.

“Roe’s photograph truly captures CUB’s spirit and mission to spread energy efficiency awareness across

Illinois, and help consumers cut their utility bills.”

The winning photograph shows Roe standing in front of his self-installed solar panel installation in his yard with a handmade “I Love CUB” sign post.

Calendar raffle offered by Ducks Unlimited Blackhawk Chapter The local Ducks Unlimited Blackhawk Chapter is selling a high end 2015 raffle calendar for a chance to win five guns a week during 2015.

The calendar features photographs by Tony Vandemore of magnificent scenes of waterfowl, retrievers, and hunts from Habitat Flats, the #1 Waterfowl Lodge in North America.

Each day of the week, Monday through Friday, the 2015 raffle calendar displays a photograph of the firearm to be raffled off on that day.

The individually numbered

calendars rely on the mid-day Illinois Lottery Pick 4 number without the “FIREBALL” to award winners of firearms manufactured by the likes of Remington, Browning, Winchester, Beretta, Ruger, and Smith & Wesson.

In all, Ducks Unlimited will award five guns every week throughout the entire year.

Ducks Unlimited was formed to provide for the life cycle needs of North America’s migratory waterfowl by protecting, restoring, enhancing, and managing important wetlands and associated uplands.

DU is the world’s largest private sector waterfowl, wetlands, and wildlife conservation organization, with one million supporters and members in the U.S. Since its inception in 1937, DU has raised nearly $2 billion and conserved nearly 12 million acres of habitat throughout North America.

The $50 conservation fundraising calendars can be procured by contacting Rock River Outfitters at 815-7329999, Russ Crull at 815-2189239, or Bill Sarafin at 815440-5494.

Quantities are limited.

The instructor is Dave Merrill from SunAir Systems.

He designs and installs solar electric systems.

After an introduction to a typical roof-mounted PV system Merrill will provide an overview of solar equipment and discuss the differences between “string” central inverters and micro inverters.

Topics will also include grid-tied and battery-based systems, and designing a code-compliant solar system.

Information will be given on the latest in state and

federal subsidies.

After lunch, participants will assemble a real onekilowatt grid-tied PV system on site.

Two teams will rotate between laying out the solar panels, wiring connections and the remaining components. Teams will learn wiring of the inverter, charge controller and breaker switches.

After both teams have connected each portion of the solar assembly, the unit will be voltage tested.

It will then be wired so it will be ready to connect to the house breaker box.

The group will disassemble the solar system and repack into boxes.

The cost for the workshop is $20 for IREA members and

$40 for non-members which will include membership.

Lunch can be purchased for $5.

Newman said she was very glad to have had the opportunity to attend the seminar and that she met

many amazing people.

Along with other students from Illinois schools, Newman discussed and debated topics usually reserved for the highest levels of leadership in education, business and government.

The mission statement of ILS is to “Unleash the Leadership Potential of Illinois Youth”. ISL is a member of the National Society for Youth Leadership (NSYL).

This year over 100 high school sophomores attended the seminar, each striving to make a difference in their school and their community.

Each year, the Oregon Woman’s Club sends a student to the seminar, which is offered to sophomores throughout the state. Current sophomores at Oregon High School should contact the guidance office for more information.

Household hazardous waste event is Saturday in Oregon

By Vinde Wells Editor

Members of Freedom Lutheran Church in Oregon filled 64 backpacks with school supplies to be shipped throughout the world. Photo supplied

Freedom Lutheran sends supplies Members of Freedom Lutheran gathered at their downtown Oregon Welcome Center on Sept. 23 and filled 64 backpacks with school supplies.

These backpacks will be shipped throughout the world through Lutheran World Relief.

“We can buy supplies for a fraction of the cost in many developing countries,” Pastor Jeff Schlesinger said. “In many countries where these kits will be going, the supplies are so scarce that only the rich are able to get them.”

These kits have only begun their journey. From Freedom they were taken to All Saints Lutheran in Byron and then to Immanuel Lutheran in Rockford.

From there, they were loaded on a truck to go to the LWR warehouse in Maryland where they will be distributed all over the globe.

“When school supplies are needed in the U.S. for the economically distressed or in times of natural disasters, companies and corporations usually come forth,” Schlesinger said. “But in

developing countries this does not happen, so the church fills a big void.”

The supplies were all donated by the members of Freedom, a mission congregation of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA). The drive is timed with the beginning of school in the United States.

“For just a few dollars we can buy quite a few supplies in August and September,” said Jan Wehmeyer, one of the coordinators of the project. “Last year we made 60 kits, and this year we surpassed that by four.”

“We enjoy serving others,” said Freedom member and leader Tom Champley.

“Serving is part of who we are as a congregation – it is part of our DNA.” In addition to collecting the school kits, Freedom actively supports many organizations locally and nationally.

The children of Freedom hold a weekly “noisy” offering during worship in which people give the change from their pockets.

This offering is then passed

on to organizations outside of Freedom.

The September and October “noisy” offerings are designated to the Village of Progress.

In addition, Freedom hosted a bake sale benefitting the VOP during Autumn on Parade.

At the end of the month, Freedom will be joining with Trinity Lutheran in Mt. Morris and Emmanuel Lutheran in Payne’s Point in some community based hands-on service projects as part of the ELCA’s “God’s Work, Our Hands” initiative.

Freedom Lutheran is a mission church of the ELCA. They worship on Sundays at 9:45 a.m. on the campus of Lutheran Outdoor Ministries Center (LOMC) a mile south of Oregon.

During the week they maintain a Welcome Center at 111 S. Fourth St., Oregon, which includes a small Fair Trade Store, a gallery featuring local artists, and plenty of gathering area to use for their own ministries and that they make available to other community groups.

After a seven-year hiatus, the Household Hazardous Waste Collection Event has returned to Ogle County.

County residents can safely and conveniently get rid of oilbased paints, lawn chemicals, and even fluorescent bulbs on Saturday, Oct. 18 from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. at 421 W. Pines Rd., Oregon.

The event is sponsored by the Ogle County Solid Waste Management Department (OCSWMD), in partnership with the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency (IEPA).

OCSWMD Director Steve Rypkema said he expects a large crowd since the event hasn’t been held since 2007.

“I do expect a good turnout for this event,” he said. “And the weather is supposed to be good — that wasn’t always the case in the past.”

Rypkema said the IEPA stopped providing grants for local household hazardous waste collection about six years ago because of state budget constraints.

The funding started up again in recent years, he

said, but only in areas of the state where residents had no options.

Ogle County wasn’t included because of its proximity to Rockford where a collection site is open daily.

However, this year Rypkema was contacted about a grant application he submitted six years ago.

“They asked if I was still interested, and I said yes,” he said.

Items that will be accepted at the event include oilbased paints, paint thinners, herbicides, pesticides, insecticides, old gasoline, pool chemicals, cleaning products, mercury, household and lead–acid batteries, used motor oil, drain cleaners, lawn chemicals, antifreeze, solvents, aerosol paints, fluorescent lamp bulbs, old and out dated medicines, and pharmaceuticals.

Behr Iron & Metal will be on hand to accept automotive batteries, Rypkema said.

The following items will not be accepted: latex paints, explosives, fireworks, agricultural chemicals, electronics, fire extinguishers, propane tanks, farm machinery oil, smoke

detectors, needles or sharps, business or industrial wastes, or controlled substances.

Rypkema advised residents to use up the products if possible.

“Using them as they are intended is not bad for the environment and is the best thing to do,” he said. “But if it’s beyond use, by all means bring it in.”

For the first time, in addition to the household hazardous waste collection, a separate area will be devoted to accepting textiles and other items for reuse or recycling.

This collection is being coordinated with the Village of Progress and Serenity Hospice and Home and will accept wearable clothing, linens, paired shoes, belts, and purses.

Do not bring torn or worn out clothes, uniforms, pillows, rugs, draperies, boots, flip flops, or heels more than one inch.

“This is a chance for people to bring both types of items in,” Rypkema said.

For more information, call the OCSWMD at 815732-4020 or visit www. oglecounty.org.

Work continues on new center From A1 insulation crew.

The bricklayers finished a couple days after the last fiber board was installed.

“I am like the head coach,” said Suthers. “I have good players around me. The county knew what they needed. They are interested in the project and are visiting the site to see the progress.”

Ogle County Board

Member Don Griffin, the Long Rang Planning Commission Chairman, is in charge of the project.

“It has been a great project so far,” said Griffin. “I can not believe how nice the building is looking.”

Griffin said Suthers is on site every day to oversee the project and if any concerns arise he addresses them.

Quickly addressing small

problems prevents delays in the project.

Griffin said there is no firm timeline for completion of the project but expects the building to be completed early next year.

The Ogle County Sheriff and Coroner Administration Center will house the sheriff’s department, coroner, morgue, and 911 center.

Fire hydrant flushing to begin The City of Oregon will be flushing fire hydrants on the following dates: Oct. 20-24— north of Ill. 64 (Washington Street) and the east side Oct. 27-31 —south of Ill. 64 (Washington Street) The flushing is a

requirement of the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency and a recommendation of the Insurance Services Office.

City water may be rusty during this operation and residents should refrain from washing clothes, etc., during

the hours of the flushing operation.

At night if your water is rusty, allow the cold water to run until it clears.

Presentation on mourning was excellent Dear Editor, On Sunday, Sept. 28, 2014 at the Mt. Morris Public Library, Sharon Atkins, a genealogist from Roscoe, had an excellent presentation on mourning during the Civil War and Victorian era.

She was in full dress from the mourning bonnet, the purse handing at her side, the long veil, the long full dress with crinoline petticoat and the gloves, of course, all in black.

Back then, the casket and funeral was at home (no funeral parlors) which is a

Paddling Classroom Oregon sixth graders paddle in a replica of a Voyageurs canoe on the Rock River during a class outing Oct. 6.

The Byron Forest Preserve District borrowed the canoe from the Illinois Department of Natural Resources and made it available to the sixth grade classes, who have been learning about the early French Voyageurs who traded for furs with the Native Americans in this area in the late 1700s and early 1800s.

Public Voice derivative of the home where the casket was always in the parlor.

Flowers became customary to produce fragrance since embalming was not available.

It started during the Civil War so that they could bring back bodies from the battlefield.

Any mirrors were covered to prevent evil spirits, and the man whose wife passed away only wore a black band on his coat sleeve and only for that day as well as a black band in his hat.

Women were in mourning for oftentimes life, especially if you were older; but generally two years, for a brother or a child, six months mourning, etc.

Children wore while with a

black sash.

A man who had children often married his wife’s sister.

At that time, many women died in childbirth.

If a woman had a farm, when she married, the husband got the farm.

Symbols on tombstones had meaning; for instance a harp indicated hope, an eagle resurrection, wheat indicated everlasting life.

Jewelry was worn; often made of hair from relatives, into rings, bracelets, etc.

All cards and writing letter paper were trimmed in black, envelopes and yes, handkerchief had black edging.

Depending on your social standing, you could even be

generously of their time, efforts, and items to enable the Society to have a float in the parade during AOP 2014.

We sincerely appreciate all your contributions.

Specifically, we thank Judy Webb and Brian Holst from the John Deere Historic Site for the use of a hayrack and Steve and Kathy Groenhagen for the 1950 John Deere 320.

We are especially grateful for their son, Dan, who not only drove the float in the parade but, along with friend Linnea, was the key to a quick and easy unloading of items back at the museum and dismantling of the float.

Another essential person Dear Editor, The Ogle County Historical was Dave Head who, with Society would like to thank other men, provided the all the people who gave so muscle power to move the invited to a funeral.

Also depending on nationality, customs may vary.

When the family gathered for the funeral, photographs were often taken and photos of the family that had passed on were displayed on the table where the photo was taken.

Historical society thanks those who helped with float

original Nash School Bell on and off the hayrack, no small feat.

We also thank the following: Connie Stauffer for her loan of the antique school desks; Andrew Barnhart, Kendra Ehrler, Carolyn Dilbeck, Garrett Moser, and Jakob Moser for sitting in those desks; and Dotti Bower for presiding over the “classroom.”

Finally, thanks to Arlene Sangmeister, Dotti Bower, and Ron Colson without whose help this float never would have happened. And to Bill Bailey and Melinda Egli for their active support.

Weather takes the headlines at golf sectionals Ali Scheidecker advances to state meet in Decatur

By Andy Colbert Reporter Weather was the big winner in attempts by golfers from Forreston, Oregon and Polo as they attempted to qualify for the IHSA state meet.

The girls sectional at Lake Carroll in Lanark ended up going two days, while the boys meet in Seneca finished in one day despite inclement conditions.

Ali Scheidecker almost had to come back for a third day of golfing to earn a spot in the IHSA Class A state meet.

Due to the rain making the Lake Carroll course unplayable on Monday, Scheidecker came back Tuesday to play five more holes.

Monday started fine, but the rain got heavier as the day progressed, causing waterlogged greens and numerous puddles throughout the course.

On Tuesday, she rebounded from a 48 on the first round to finish in 93, good for a 3-way tie for the 10th and final state qualifying spot.

IHSA rules stipulate that a playoff must take place between those golfers tied for the final spot, exactly the case at the boys regional with Taylor Brubaker and Mitch Nerhkorn.

The only problem was that Lake Carroll became unplayable again after all golfers were finished with their 18 holes. Instead of making the three girls compete in a playoff on Wednesday, the IHSA allowed all three to advance to the state meet this weekend at Red Tail Run in Decatur.

“That would have been ludicrous if they would have made them miss another day of school to play one hole of golf,” Oregon coach Jim Spratt said.

Ali was one of the final qualifiers to get out of the regional and sectional and became the first girl golfer from Oregon to advance to the girls state golf meet.

“That shows she’s gotten progressively better. She’s had it in her and it finally came to be,” Spratt said.

Abi Scheidecker stayed on par with her twin sister on Monday, with a first round of 49. However, a closing round of 54 shot her score to 103.

“Both girls have been our Oregon’s Ali Scheidecker hits her ball out of a sand trap during regional action at Prairie View in Byron on Oct. 8.

Lady Hawks in driver’s seat for conference title Oregon handles Lutheran in two

By Andy Colbert Reporter Oregon’s 25-20, 2514 victory over Rockford Lutheran in volleyball Tuesday night served three purposes.

It avenged its only conference loss, justified its No. 1 regional seed over Lutheran and put the Lady Hawks in the driver’s seat for the Big Northern Conference title.

“It feels good to win,” Mackenzie Skoumal, Emy Wright, and Bre Cullen are all smiles after beating Rockford Oregon coach Faith Watson Lutheran in two games Tuesday night. Photo by Earleen Hinton

said. “It wasn’t a great win, though. We made some service and attacking errors.”

A win is a win and with only three conference games remaining, it will be difficult for the rest of the BNC to catch Oregon (20-5-2).

The Lady Hawks, who are 10-1 in the Big Northern west division, can clinch the title with a win over Byron on Thursday.

“We don’t want to get too far ahead of ourselves,” Watson warned.

A key factor in the win was Oregon’s ability to score from anywhere on the court.

It wasn’t just the Delaney Mahoney and Emy Wright show.

After Lutheran (12-6, 7-4) closed to within 15-12 in the second game, Alana Leamanczyk began to take the game over for Oregon.

On her way to a season high 12 kills, Leamanczyk had four out of the next five points on kills. That gave Oregon a 20-13 lead they wouldn’t surrender.

“We showed we had a lot of versatility,” Watson said.

“They spread the ball around so well,” said firstyear Lutheran coach Brian Lundeen.

In the first game, Lutheran took a 3-0 lead before Summer Rhea tied the game

“I thought we were cooked,” Bothe said. “Before we made the stop, we had a down look on our faces. That was a fantastic.”

Oregon was also hindered by starting its first two drives of the second half from their own 2-yard line.

“We didn’t get the job done when we had a chance to put the game away,” Winnebago coach Mark Helm said.

After Rude’s score, the Hawk defense rose up again and forced the Indians to punt. Taking over on its own 10-yard line with five minutes left, Oregon’s John Ghibellini ran the exact same belly play Rude scored his

touchdown on and went for 68 yards.

“I saw him break lose and don’t know what happened,” Helm said. “I’ll have to watch the film, but somebody missed their coverage.”

Winnebago put Oregon into a third-and-long situation, but Brayton Finch ran 11 yards on the sweep for a key first down. Three plays later, he crashed over from two yards out for the clinching score.

“As a team we showed a lot of character to come back like that,” Bothe.

Rude leads Hawks to comeback win over ‘Bago

By Andy Colbert Reporter

Oregon desperately needed a big play in the second half of its BNC football game against Winnebago on Oct. 10. Not content with just one,

Garrett Rude made the two of the biggest plays of the night in Oregon’s 26-20 comefrom-behind win.

With seven and a half minutes left in the game, it was Rude getting past the initial line of scrimmage and

out-racing the secondary for a 71-yard touchdown to tie the game 20-20.

“That was the spark we needed,” Oregon coach John Bothe said.

Then with the Hawks holding a 26-20 lead, Rude

came up from his safety position to tackle scrambling quarterback Jess Smith at the 5-yard line on the game’s final play.

“I had (receivers) in my zone, but I could tell he was going to take it,” Rude said.

“I said screw it and went after him. I had a line on him and was able to put my head on him.”

Rude had plenty of help from teammates, including a second-half gang tackle that kept Winnebago out of the end zone on fourth down from two yards out. At the time, the Indians led 2014 and Oregon was having trouble moving the ball.

Weather woes fail to stop Ali Scheidecker from qualifying From B1 top two for last two years,” Spratt said. “We’re fortunate to have all four girls (Haley Repass and Abi Martin) back next year.”

Naeva Groenwold and Kaitlin Korf, a pair of juniors for Forreston returned to the sectional for the second straight year. Korf had a 109 and Groenwold a 115.

“It definitely wasn’t their best round, but I’m proud of them,” Forreston coach Matt Hanley said. “The weather was a factor, but everyone had to play in it.”

second group of golfers that saw the worst of the rain. The early wave of golfers, which included Markus and Bryan Elder of Forreston at least managed to get in nine holes before it starting raining in earnest.

“We had to play in rain from start to finish,” Spratt said. “I’ve never seen a more miserable bunch of kids. This should have been shut down, but (meet officials) were going to complete it no matter what. I was disgusted.”

Taylor Brubaker closed out his career at Oregon with the highest finish among local golfers with an 86, good for 42nd place. Carson Buck was close behind with an 88.

The Edler brothers both shot 91s to tie for 63rd. Christopher Rademacher of Polo was 77th with a 93 and Matt Myers of Oregon had a 96.

Markus and Bryan were one and two all year for us,” Hanley said. “There was pressure on them all year to score. Last year, we were a lot deeper.”

Markus leaves the program after being a 2-time sectional qualifier.

“It’s tough to lose him.

He’s a good leader,” Hanley said. “But, we’re glad to have Bryan back for two more years.”

Rademacher also return for two more years.

“Christopher shot around his average at sectionals and I think it will help understand what it will take next year to perform at this level,” Polo coach Don Reece said. “The year was a good one overall for the golf team. We finished 5th in our regional and shot the lowest score in regional’s since 2008.”

Polo finished 7-5 in conference and 8-7 overall this year and was the first time since 2008 we finished above 500.

North Shore County Day had five golfers in the 70s on its way to a 301.

Other team qualifiers were Aurora Christian (325) and Byron (327). Dennis Reedy of Byron was the medalist with a 70.

“The score by North Shore was unbelievable,” Spratt said. “Weather affected us, but we didn’t play very well either. I think North Shore might have went off in second wave too.”

Oregon poised for conference title 21-16 Oregon lead.

Lutheran closed to within 23-20, but return errors gave the game to Oregon.

“We really need to work on be smarter with out attack and keeping the pressure on them,” said Lundeen, whose team may see Oregon in the finals of the regional.

Oregon dominated all

phases of the second game, jumping out to an 8-2 lead before Lundeen called a timeout to regroup. The closest Lutheran would come the rest of the way was a 1412 deficit.

Mahoney continued to build on her record as alltime assist leader in school history with 25 for the night.

Playoff hopes on the line at Mendota this Friday From B1

playoff points, both teams had nearly identical scoring drives to start the game.

Rude capped off a 58yard drive with a 3-yard touchdown. The Indians closed to within 7-6 on a 55play drive.

On the first play of the second quarter, Hawk quarterback Jerrick Orsted threw a perfect pass into coverage to tight end Josh Cook for a 21-yard score, upping the lead to 14-6.

Finch had a big hand in the score by returning the kickoff into ‘Bago territory.

Defensive lineman Frank Oregon players and coaches react after fighting back to win the game against Lung forced a fumble Winnebago on Oct. 10. Photo by Jaime Finch and prevented a first half

touchdown with a crashing tackle of Smith on a secondand-goal.

Three plays later, Oregon turned the ball right back on a fumble of its own.

Winnebago, which started three sophomores in its backfield, got touchdowns from two of those players, Smith and Austin Leitzinger to take a 20-14 halftime lead.

In a final statement on how close the two teams were to each other, total net yardage was 324 for Oregon and 323 for Winnebago.

“It was a great played game on both sides. It was a shame someone had to lose,” Helm said.

On the final possession,

the Indians took possession at their own 38-yard line with 1:31 left in the game.

One fourth-down conversion and 11 plays later, Smith managed to spike the ball inside Oregon’s 10-yard with one second left.

On a roll out to his left, Smith looked to find an open receiver before being swallowed up by Rude.

With their playoff hopes on the line, the 3-4 Hawks travel to BNC second-place Mendota on Friday.

They close at the regular season at Stillman Valley, which has shockingly already been eliminated from playoff contention.

Sports Column Rude family is an inspiration

By Andy Colbert Reporter It was just what the doctor ordered. Not only did a 71yard touchdown run and game-saving tackle by

Garrett Rude lead Oregon to a 26-20 win over Winnebago, but it also had to make his father feel a little bit better.

Kevin Rude, Garrett’s dad recently discovered he has cancer. Before the game, it was neat to see father and son walk together during the Senior Night festivities.

What Garrett did later in

the game had to make the evening more memorable for Kevin, who is undergoing treatment for the cancer.

Two weeks, Polo and Aquin came together for an Aquin player with cancer.

We’re with you in love and support guys. *** While at the game, Oregon AD Mike Lawton excitedly reported to me that the Lady Hawk volleyball team got a very fortuitous draw in the IHSA 2A pairings.

Instead of funneling into some of the suburban private schools, both the sectional and super-sectional will be a rural affair.

Standing in the way of Oregon are staunch foes like Rockford Lutheran and Dakota. If the team makes it through the sectional, the super-sectional might be theirs to win.

Certainly, the Lady Hawks have to be considered one of the favorites to make it downstate. In recent years, they have had good teams, but have run into post-season buzz saws along the way.

Could this finally be the year for Oregon volleyball to reach the big stage?

Imagine the increase in school spirit and morale if the girls find themselves at Redbird Arena in Mid November.

*** This past weekend, Oregon participated the biggest area 1A cross country meet of the year, the Amboy Columbus Day Invite. Also, this weekend, 45,000 runners took part in the Chicago Marathon.

Other than long distance running, what do these two events have in common?

Maybe, the better question is what is different about them.

Long distance running among adults, such at the Chicago Marathon, has never been more popular, while the local high school running scene has been in a decline.

Byron doesn’t even have enough boys to field a full team. Oregon and Rochelle

have also struggled to get kids out. Stillman Valley and Forreston haven’t had a team for decades. Polo had a state-qualifying boys team in 2006, but really haven’t been heard from since.

At Chicago, the average age of a male marathoner was 39 and for a female, 35.

And get this – those 45,000 people were paying nearly a $200 registration fee for the privilege of running 26.2 miles.

That may sound a bit crazy, but one thing is apparent – long distance running has become the domain of adults, not teenagers.

Why is this?

Generally speaking, today’s youth don’t have that same desire to push themselves in a sport as physically-challenging as cross country. On the other hand, adults have developed an appreciation for running long distances.

Maybe it’s like this – when we were kids, we didn’t enjoy eating lima beans or doing the dishes. In adulthood, that kind of stuff is okay and can even be enjoyable.

Who knows, but I sure would like to see more high school kids be a part of one of the best sports going in terms of socialization opportunities and health benefits.

Lost Lake, long plagued by water problems, is getting $224,000 to help pay for a second well, the governor’s office said in a news release last week.

The money is coming in the form of a low-interest loan through the Illinois Clean Water Initiative.

The Lost Lake Utility District has only one well, which is adequate to meet its needs, but there is no back-up water supply.

The lone well was out of service for almost a week in

2008 when the well pump, motor and piping had to be replaced, and the district had to haul and deliver water to residents, the release said.

A second well will help avoid such problems.

In anticipation of the loan, the second well has been drilled, and now must be hooked into the well house/ treatment facility, which also is being expanded and upgraded.

The project is expected to be completed in December.

The Lost Lake Utility District serves about 860 people at the former New Landing and Lost Nation developments, which

merged in November 2007 to form Lost Lake.

Lost Lake, 13 miles northeast of Dixon in unincorporated Ogle County, has 356 homes, some permanent and some vacation homes.

The Clean Water Initiative provides subsidized loans, resulting in additional savings for communities over the life of the loans.

IEMA Earthquake drill is set for Thursday, Oct. 16 The Illinois Emergency Management Agency (IEMA) today urged Illinoisans to participate in the 4th Annual Great ShakeOut earthquake drill at 10:16 a.m., on Thursday, October 16.

It is expected to be the largest earthquake drill in the history of Illinois and the United States.

“An earthquake can strike anywhere, at any time. The

Great ShakeOut is designed to help residents think about what to do before, during and after an earthquake,” said IEMA Director Jonathon Monken.

“The Great ShakeOut is an effective way for schools, businesses, families and others to practice the life-saving ‘Drop, Cover and Hold On’ procedures.”

Governor Pat Quinn has proclaimed Oct. 16

as “Great ShakeOut Day” across Illinois, calling this drill “an effective, grassroots approach to emergency planning” which has “helped millions of people understand what to do if the ground starts shaking.”

Individuals, schools, businesses and others can register for the Great ShakeOut at www.shakeout. org/centralus, where

participants will find expert advice about earthquake preparedness, engaging videos and resource materials.

It only takes a minute to register online in the Great ShakeOut and just seconds to participate in the drill itself, but the lessons could make a life-or-death difference.

The drill focuses on the protective actions people should take when a quake

begins: • “Drop” to the floor • take “Cover” under a sturdy desk or table • “Hold On” until the shaking stops Illinois has participated in ShakeOut drills since 2011.

Last year, 523,000 Illinoisans took part in the exercise.

To date, nearly 530,000

Illinoisans have registered for the upcoming event, along with more than 25 million others in 39 states, Puerto Rico, Canada, Japan, New Zealand and Italy.

The largest earthquake ever to rattle North America occurred in 1811 in New Madrid, Missouri.

From B5 impact would be catastrophic and result in many fatalities and injuries, as well as severe damage or destruction to the region’s hospitals, roads, bridges, fuel pipelines and water infrastructure.

Most of southern Illinois sits atop one of two major fault zones - the New Madrid Seismic Zone and Wabash Valley Seismic Zone - but

In recent years, Illinois has been slammed by natural calamities: floods, tornadoes, drought and blizzards.
