OFFICIAL DESIGNATION

Clarke County becomes state’s third Home Base Iowa Community By AMY HANSEN

OST news editor • ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

It’s good to be No. 3. On Tuesday, Aug. 19, Lt. Gov. Kim Reynolds was at Salford Farm Machinery in Osceola to designate Clarke County as the state’s third Home Base Iowa Community. “Honestly, there’s nothing like coming back home, especially when we’re celebrating a success like this,” Reynolds said. “I’m really proud of Clarke County and Osceola for becoming a Home Base Iowa Community.” Home Base Iowa designated communities serve as centers of opportunity for military veterans. Home Base Iowa is a non-profit, private-public partnership that focuses on recruiting veterans and active duty service members for quality, well-paying private-sector jobs in Iowa. All Home Base Iowa Communities must have 10 percent of businesses in the area achieve Home Base Iowa Business status, develop its own incentive package for veterans and obtain a resolution of support from the appropriate

ALS Ice Bucket Challenge: Murray Elementary Principal Dan Jensen gets drenched in ice water from a Bobcat

inloader after school Thursday, Aug. 21. Jensen had accepted the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, which is a social media phenomenon of people dumping a bucket of ice water on themselves and nominating other people to do the same thing. It is also a fundraiser for the ALS Association, which does global research in attempt to find treatments and a cure for the disease commonly known as Lou Gehrig’s disease. Jensen said the issue is personal to him because his brother-in-law died of ALS at the age of 44 approximately 10 years ago. Jensen said he was doing the challenge in honor of his brother-in-law. Jensen’s daughter challenged him, and he nominated five people to do the challenge before ice water was dumped on him. FYI: Jensen was wearing a helmet during the challenge.

SKETCHED OUT City logo draws a lot of pubilc reaction, council postpones final approval By AMY HANSEN

OST news editor ahansen@osceolaiowa.com

Weak. Doesn’t stand out. Generic. Sterile. Looks like a Q-tip, pop tab or Ouija board. These were some of the public’s reactions to the proposed city of Osceo-

la logo during a public hearing at an Aug. 19 Osceola City Council meeting. Discussion on the logo lasted for approximately an hour and the room was packed with people. First, there were concerns about if the GPS locator design on the proposed logo was already trademarked because once the logo goes through final approval by the city council, it would become city property. Many in the crowd wanted to know if there were any other options. The council discussed there have been several public meetings and a committee was formed to help design the logo. This has taken place throughout the past year. Ty Wheeler, city administrator/ clerk, said this was actually the second attempt at creating a logo. The project first began with the update of the city’s website. “This isn’t the only variation. … One of our goals in this project, which we don’t have as an organization right now, is to develop a consistent logo for the city property — the departments,” Wheeler said. “What this does is not only allow, you could consider this the formal, the main logo, but then you can branch out of that depending on what kind of space you’re working with and the theme is consistent. It’s not various renditions of Warrior Osceola. It’s not feathers. It’s not other items. It’s a consistent theme, which we can then use when we’re marketing the city.” The logo will eventually be found on city vehicles, business cards, signage, letterheads, shirts and more. The new logo is actually two different versions that are essentially the same design. There’s a large version of the logo, as well as a smaller one. Allowed to use Wheeler said the city is allowed to

use the design of the GPS locater. During group discussion, it was mentioned the look of a GPS locater is a royalty-free icon. It can’t be trademarked or copy written — anybody can use it. The logo as whole can be copy written, but the little GPS locator can’t be. Any changes made to the icon during the design made the icon its own graphic. Many people in the crowd wanted a design to show how friendly of a community Osceola is. “How do we show friendly because that’s something that comes up?” asked Councilman Dennis Page. Sarah Truitt said the logo the committee had other designs for the logo project, including depicting what the renovated downtown Osceola square would look like. She said there were three awesome choices that also included the feather and the train depot, but nobody liked those choices a year ago. “I am so thrilled just to have people here and input — wonderful comments,” Truitt said. “… It’s been so much work I think that we’re stuck, but I think that we all seem to be moving in the direction of ‘We like Osceola. We really like living here.’ And, so maybe we need to look at some of those we had before.” Brad Hansen, who served on the committee, said they chose something that was simplistic, but could be added to if need be. “In discussion, one of the most important parts of this community was its location,” Hansen said. “Osceola has so many attributes that it really couldn’t be inclusive for all of those things without becoming cluttered. We chose something that was really pretty simple.”

Helping veterans “We want to attract retiring and transitioning military members who have the skills, the determination, the discipline, and, of course, the teamwork to help companies in our communities grow,” Reynolds said. Bill Trickey, executive director of Clarke County Iowa Development Corporation, was at Salford to accept Clarke County’s official designation as a Home Base Iowa community. Clarke County was awarded this honor for its commitment to develop and grow a public-private partnership between the county and local businesses that will promote hiring of U.S. military veterans. Clarke County will take the initiative in displaying and marketing the Home Base Iowa designation within numerous websites and community signage.

Iowa welcomes them with open arms,” she said. “That we have great opportunities for veterans right here in the state of Iowa with some significant benefits that were put in place through the Home Base Iowa act.” The initiative is currently cochaired by former Democratic Congressman Leonard Boswell and Casey’s Chief Executive Officer Bob Meyers, both of whom are veterans themselves. According to Reynolds, Iowa has more than 100 Home Base Iowa businesses that are committed to hiring veterans. “It’s another economic tool in the toolbox,” she said.

CITY LOGO: Continued from Page 1

There were also concerns that, the more intricate a design, the more expensive it would be to put it onto city property. Different departments, same logo On a projector screen, Wheeler showed how the proposed logo design could be used for different city departments with the GPS locator, by incorporating a First Aid cross for emergency personnel such as police officers or firefighters. “The first time I saw it, it didn’t really grab me,” Page said. “Since I’ve been dealing with it now for a couple of weeks, the more I look at it, the more I like it. The thing that I do like about it, again, the various things that we come up with that are going to be on the city vehicles and things like that. Again, we’re using that logo, that GPS logo, and inside that we’re putting various things.”

OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNE

Councilman David Walkup recommended taking the comments from the meeting, having the committee work with the logo and bring it back to the council. He would put his support behind it at that time. Councilman Dr. Fotiadis agreed the logo has to start with simplicity. However, the councilman, like a lot of people in the crowd, weren’t in favor of the wording on the big logo. “If you make it too complex, too busy, it’s not going to be ‘wow,’ it’s going to be ‘eww,’” he said. “… What I like about the idea is it starts simple and with the direction finder, I like the idea of adding into the direction finder. That you can do it from department to department. You can do it for emphasis on aspects of the community.” The council decided to send the meeting’s input back to the committee for review. After that, it would go back to the council for final approval.

By State Representative Joel Fry joel.fry@legis.state.ia.us

As children head back to school and parents take college students back to campus, it is the time when communities refocus on the effort to provide a quality education to all Iowa students. As your state legislator, I want to highlight some of the work going on here in our area and around the state to make Iowa the number one state for education once again. Throughout the past four years, Iowa taxpayers have made significant investment in our public schools. During this time, the state has given schools an additional $500 million through Iowa’s school aid formula. This commitment of state dollars has helped our schools address growing costs without having to ask for more from property taxpayers. In addition, we have extended school sharing incentives to allow smaller schools to work together and continue providing quality educational opportunities in their local towns, while still maintaining their local identities. These are critical for strengthening our rural schools and their communities. What does this mean for the individual Iowa student? According to data from the state Department of Education, public funding for education provided an average amount of $9,892 per child from taxpayers during the 2013-14 school year. And, with the 4 percent increase in state

school aid this school year, the average per student funding will be more than $10,000. Of that total amount, 97 percent comes from local and state taxpayers. The other 3 percent comes from Washington, D.C. Iowans continue to make a strong investment in our children’s education. Increasing funding isn’t the only way to make sure our kids have the best education possible. In 2013, the legislature passed significant education reform legislation aimed at helping our teachers reach their potential. In the schools that have served as test pilots for these programs, significant improvements in test scores have already been achieved. This school year the state will be investing another $50 million into these efforts, as well as adding a $100 million in 2016 and 2017. This state’s commitment to a quality education does not end once a student receives their high school diploma. This fall marks the second

consecutive year where the legislature has committed to funding levels needed to allow the Board of Regents to freeze tuition for students from Iowa at Iowa State, the University of Iowa and the University of Northern Iowa. By holding the line on tuition, we are able to help students and their families reduce their need for student loans and make college more affordable for Iowans who may not otherwise have been able to attend. The last time tuition was frozen for two straight years was back in the mid-1970’s. The legislature has also increased our support for community colleges. State funds to these critical players in our education and economic development efforts have grown by $52 million over the past four years. And for those students who go to one of Iowa’s private colleges, the eligible amount and funding for the Iowa Tuition Grant program has also been increased. As we compete in the global marketplace, it is essential that we give our children all the tools possible to build successful lives. Throughout the past four years, I have worked, in a bipartisan manner, to ensure the state is working to improve our education system at all levels. I will continue these efforts to give our children the best education possible in the future. Thanks again for the blessing of serving southern Iowans. As always, please let me know should you have any questions.

Forty Iowa Farm Bureau leaders visited Capitol Hill and their elected officials during the annual national policy trip July 14-17 to discuss key farm issues, including GMO food labeling and biotechnology in agriculture, international trade, and EPA’s Waters of the U.S. (WOTUS) proposed rule. The farmers had the opportunity to meet with Iowa’s Congressional delegation and their staff and department and agency leaders including the Grocery Manufacturers Association, Biotechnology Industry Organization and the Australia Embassy. One major concern shared by Iowa farmers was the EPA’s proposed WOTUS rule and its effect on conservation planning and land use. “The way the EPA wants to define waters of the U.S. is so vague that it’s going to be a free-for-all if it doesn’t get pulled,” said Randy Dreher, an Audubon County farmer. “I think that it’s going to prohibit conservation because an agency is going to tell us how to fix everyday challenges on our farms. It’s going to add undue cost and provide limited options for farmers.” “Iowa farmers brought very real concerns to their lawmakers in Washington, and they

asked for commitment to support important matters back home on the farm,” said Kevin Kuhle, Iowa Farm Bureau Federation national policy advisor. “Our local Farm Bureau members proved their knowledge of diverse policy issues and engaged Iowa’s Congressmen and Senators in conversations regarding the troubling WOTUS rule, food labeling laws, and tax extenders, to just name a few.”

The Iowa Farm Bureau national policy trip is an annual spring event for select county leaders. Each year, one-half of Iowa’s 100 county Farm Bureaus have the opportunity to send a representative to speak on behalf of agriculture and rural Iowa.

6 SPORTS Indians have pieces to improve on 1-9 season THURSDAY • AUGUST 28, 2014

By SCOTT VICKER

OST sports editor • svicker@osceolaiowa.com

Clarke head football coach Michael Kline knows there will be two keys to success for his football team this year. Those keys are strong offensive line play and stopping the run on defense. The Indians will need the offensive line, which features three returners, to protect junior quarterback Rich Wilkins and to open up running lanes for Junior Morales. Wilkins steps in at quarterback after receiving playing time at different points over the past two years. He replaces D a l t o n Wilkins Sweeney, who threw for 446 yards and two scores last year and led the team with 434 rushing yards and 11 touchdowns. “He got quite a bit of time as a freshman and played a little for us last year,” Kline said about Wilkins. “Obviously, quarterback is an important position on the football team. His decision making will be important.” Key in the protection of Wilkins will be returning starters on the line in Nathan Bair, Damon Helgevold and Caleb Hanson. “Our offensive line is going to be key for us,” Kline said. “Nathan Bair at right guard had a stellar freshman year. Damon Helgevold has been a three-

y e a r starter for us at center, so a lot of game experience. Hopefully Helgevold our offensive line can take some strides for us.” Morales showed flashes of what he could do last year as a runner, averaging 4.9 yards per carry. But, he Morales played in only five games. Senior Gordon Witt averaged 4.1 yards per carry on 29 carries last year and could also figure into the running game this year. “Junior Morales is back,” Kline said. “Not a big guy, but very elusive and can be hard to tackle. Gordon Witt is a kid that has been stellar for us defensively, and he started carrying the ball a little more for us as the year went on. I think he’ll fit into the game plan a little more offensively.” Kline said he is excited about the potential in his wide receivers. The receiving group features several good athletes in Reed Kale, Dustan Van Loon, Gordon Witt, Gunner Sergeant-Elben and Jake Leeps. “Some guys that have played quite a bit of varsity time, just not necessarily at the receiver position,” Kline said. “If they

did play receiver position last year, they didn’t get a lot of balls thrown to them. I’m excited for our scrimmage this Friday against I-35, give us a chance to see what we’ve put in and progress from there.”

Defense But the biggest key for Clarke this year will be on the defensive side of the ball in trying to stop the run. “I think it’s going to be all about stopping the run for us,” Kline said. “Last year, if we could force teams to

throw the ball, we did a pretty good job of playing defense. When teams were able to run the ball for 8, 10, 12 yards a pop, we kind of got steamrolled. Defensive run game is the most important aspect for us this year.” Bair will bear a lot of responsibility along the defensive line trying to slow down opposing teams’ run games. If the Indians can force teams to go through the air, Sergeant-Elben and Kale proved to be strong defensive backs last year, and

Kline feels confident knowing they’re back on the perimeter. Another important returning piece for the defense is Witt, who led the team with 117 total t a c k l e s Witt last year, almost double the next best on the team.

Albia to reload and be at the top of the district once again this year. “Centerville and North Polk both graduated a lot last year, but I think North Polk will just reload,” Kline said. “At the end of the day, I’d say it’s probably Albia and North Polk.” The Indians open the season Friday at Saydel, a team they have split with the past two seasons. Clarke then travels to Colfax-Mingo the following week. The Indians finish the non-district slate on Oct. 17 at Central Decatur.

District outlook Kline said he expects

Clarke volleyball in transition phase By SCOTT VICKER

OST sports editor • svicker@osceolaiowa.com

The Clarke volleyball team graduated 10 seniors from last year’s team and returns just three players that recorded a kill last season. That leaves the team in a transition phase, as just six players with any varsity experience return to the court this year. “They started out where we really had to focus on a lot of fundamentals, because there’s so many young kids,” head coach Lindsay Diehl said about preseason practices. “We’ve progressed very quickly in the past week. We’re getting to more gamelike situations. The two returners with the most experience are

juniors Baylie Balcaen and Maddi Heath. Balcaen led the team with 130 kills last year from her middle hitter position, w h i l e H e a t h will likely Balcaen fill a libero role this year. “The other kids had maybe seen a few points on the court, so it’s kind of going back to teaching the younger kids where we need to be,” Diehl said. “Experience is something we lack, but I see a lot of younger kids that are promising.” One of those younger athletes is sophomore Alex Boyce, who Diehl said she believes could make big

improvements this year. “Last year I had to recruit her a little bit,” Diehl said. “She came out and figured things out a little bit last year as a freshman. She is definitely going to be a varsity starter for us. Being a left-handed hit- Boyce ter, we’ve moved her to the right side of the court. This week, she’s been doing some things that have made me say ‘wow.’ I’m excited to see what Alex Boyce can

do this season.” Setter Mackenzi Otto graduated last year and the Lady Indians were left without a backup setter to fill that void this year. Junior Ally Deutsch has stepped into that role and worked hard in preseason practices, Diehl said. Sophomores Sydnee Redman and Lexy Carson have also shown improvement in their games this preseason. “Bronwyn MIller and Kara Campfield are two seniors that have been out,” Diehl said. “And I anticipate those two are going to step up and be big front row hitters for us, as

We pulled her up and has gotten into our rotation, too. Once she figures out her timing, I think she could be a force at the net for us.”

Thrift Store building is in need of exterior painting. Osceola Farm and Home contributed a discount on paint and Highway Lumber gave a donation of painting supplies (brushes, drop cloths and more). Casey’s General Store on north Main Street contributed ice, Fareway donated water, Robinson’s True Value contributed the loan of a giant cooler to put the ice and water in. Kale’s Funeral Home and HyVee gave their assistance in getting the word out online.

Here’s how you can participate: Go by Osceola Farm and Home and donate one or more gallons of paint ($32/ gallon with their 20 percent discount). Tell them it’s for the Make a Difference Mission Day at Cross Ministries. They know paint specifics. Come help paint. Work will probably get started by 9 a.m. Bring a lunch if you like, as well as friends and neighbors. Come for an hour or the day (or anything in between). Lend step ladders. Call

Lessons yet to learn By Chuck DeVos

Lead pastor LifePoint Church

A frail old man went to live with his son, daughter-in-law, and four-year-old grandson. The old man’s hands trembled, his eyesight was blurred, and his step faltered. The family ate together every night at the table. But, the elderly grandfather’s shaky hands and failing sight made eating difficult. Peas rolled off his spoon onto the floor. When he grasped the glass, milk spilled on the tablecloth. The son and daughter-in-law became irritated with the mess. “We must do something about father,” said the son. “I’ve had enough of his spilled milk, noisy eating, and food on the floor.” So the husband and wife set a small table in the corner. There, Grandfather ate alone while the rest of the family enjoyed dinner. Since Grandfather had broken a dish or two, his food was served in a wooden bowl! When the family glanced in Grandfather’s direction, sometime he had a tear in his eye as he sat alone. Still, the only words the couple had for him were sharp admonitions when he dropped a fork or spilled food. The four-year-old watched it all in silence. One evening before supper, the father noticed his son playing with wood scraps on the floor. He asked the child sweetly, “What are you making?” Just as sweetly, the boy responded, “Oh, I am making a little bowl for you and Mama to eat your food in when I grow up.” The four-year-old smiled and went back to work. The words so struck the parents so that they were speechless. Then tears started to stream down their cheeks. Though no word was spoken, both knew what must be done. That evening the husband took Grandfather’s hand and gently led him back to the family table. For the remainder of his days he ate every meal with the family. And for some LIGHT OF GRACE, 400 E.

reason, neither husband nor wife seemed to care any longer when a fork was dropped, milk spilled or the tablecloth soiled. Jesus often used parables to illustrate the lesson He was wanting to teach. Sometimes He would explain the parable, other times He did not. With that in mind, I’ll let you derive your own lessons from the above parable. I’m learning a few things, yes, learning. I don’t have it all figured out. Here are a few things I’m learning: I’m learning that no matter what happens, how bad it seems today, life does go on, and tomorrow will be a new day. I’m learning that regardless of your relationship with your parents, you’ll miss them when they’re gone from your life. I’m learning that making a “living” is not the same thing as making a ‘life..’ I’m learning that you shouldn’t go through life with a catcher’s mitt on both hands. You need to be able to throw something back. I’m learning that if you pursue happiness, it will elude you. But, if you focus on your family, friends, the needs of others, your work and doing the very best you can, happiness will find you. I’m learning that whenever I decide something with an open heart, I usually make the right decision. I’m learning that even when I have pains, I don’t have to be one. I’m not learning this one fast enough, but I’m learning. I’m learning that I still have a lot to learn! So, what are you learning? Misioneros. Viernes - 6:00 p.m., Hogares.
