Dolder becomes first female Putnam County Clerk

HENNEPIN — History was made in the Purtnam County Courthouse on July 1 when Tina Dolder was sworn in as Putnam County’s first female clerk and recorder.

She succeeds Dan Kuhn, who retired at the end of June.

In her new role, the former deputy clerk will be responsible for property tax extension, vital records, voter registration, county board minutes, election authority for the county, registry of notary commissions, assumed business names and all land records in the county.

Dolder is confident in a smooth transition into her new role, having worked closely with Kuhn over the last year.

She said she is very familiar with the Putnam County Courthouse as she started part-time in May 2014 in probation and landed a full-time position in the circuit clerk’s office in July 2016.

She took a volunteer layoff in June 2019, but then Kuhn called her in December of last year to ask if she’d come back and help out the county clerk and recorder’s office through the election.

She then continued to work parttime in the county clerk’s office preparing for Kuhn’s retirement.

“Everyday I feel something new comes up and I continue to learn,” Dolder said. “I look forward to working with the public and meeting the needs of the individuals that walk in the Putnam County Clerk’s Office. I will strive to have great communication with the public, PC board, and all other county officials and offices. I am sure there will be several challenges along the way learning new things as I go. However, I am confident that between myself, the County Board and other officials this will be a seamless transition.”

“I would like for the community to know that everyday is a new day. Come in to the office, ask questions and I will be glad to help you, if I don’t know the answer right away I will figure it out and get back to you. I will do my best to communicate with all of our residents, townships and all other taxing entities we have.

“I am proud to be appointed as your new clerk and I hope to have your vote in the next election.”

Dolder has filled many volunteer roles throughout Putnam County communities.

Since 2012, Dolder has been a Granville Village trustee, she’s spent many years coaching softball, been a Rotary member and has served as Rotary president. She’s also a member of Community Partners Against Substance Abuse (CPASA), and spent several years of

being a den leader for Cub Scouts.

“I have enjoyed serving my community,” Dolder said. “I truly believe it is important to be involved in your community. So when Dan wanted to retire I felt that this was my next step to continue to serve.

Former Putnam County Clerk Dan Kuhn handed over the reins to new clerk Tina Dolder on Thursday.

Putnam County Rotary gavel changes hands

Annual banquet held on June 24 Putnam County Rotary’s annual meeting held June 24 at L J’s Garden Café in Magnolia was a celebration of service, fellowship and the end of a year that challenged us all to rise above to achieve.

Outgoing Club President Tina Dolder thanked all club members for their volunteer spirit and commitment to meet and overcome those challenges. Together, the club was able to maintain nearly all its service projects and fundraising efforts, even added new projects benefiting the Putnam County community.

The past year’s projects included support of two Rotary “Little Free Pantries” in Standard and McNabb, renovation of a common room for victims of domestic abuse at Freedom House, sponsorship of Interact Clubs at the junior high and high schools, co-hosting of two local blood drives, awarding of several scholarship awards, the club’s annual dictionary distribution to third graders, Christmas and Valentines’ Day projects benefiting seniors and veterans, expansion of the club’s Rotary Readers Project to include online video readings for young children, launching of the club’s “Bikes for Kids” project, and support of many local organizations benefiting Putnam County residents.

The club has also expanded in strength by inviting community members to participate, whether as volunteers or as members, to help with the club’s numerous service projects.

Following club tradition, the outgoing president was presented with a commemorative clock and plaque, a scrapbook of the club’s past year of service and a past president’s pin.

Accepting the club’s gavel from Dolder, incoming Club President Brenda Bickerman pledged to continue and strengthen the club’s commitment to serve others locally and globally. As a part of Rotary International, the local club shares the commitment of more than 32,000 clubs worldwide, to humanitarian causes and disaster relief, world peace and conflict resolution, youth and leadership development, and protection of the environment. Her own commitment was particularly recognized for achieving the second level of giving to the Rotary Foundation, with presentation of a Paul Harris Fellowship lapel pin that includes an inset stone.

In addition to Bickerman, the new Rotary Board was installed, including Vice President Debbie Buffington, Secretary Scott Shore, Treasurer Tina Dolder, and additional board members Nancy Burress, Don Massey and Ron McNeill.

The club also installed as a new organizational member, the Putnam County Library, welcoming staff members Matt Miller and Peggy Smith as

Recently installed members also include Dan Ramirez, Mark Hamilton, Stephanie Fusinato and returning member Cheri Adrian.

Ten members were recognized for participating in a combination of at least 24 service projects and “Zoom” or in-person meetings during the past

year. Those recognized included Beth Acuncius, Tina Bergen, Brenda Bickerman, Debbie Buffington, Betty and Lisa Johnson, Ron McNeill, Scott and Adriane Shore, and Reed Wilson — who topped the charts with 40 years of 100% participation.

Melanie Trinidad (center) was recognized for “Student Service Above Self” for her extraordinary volunteer service while a student at Putnam County High School, including her active participation throughout high school and serving as president of the PCHS Interact Club during her senior year. Presenting the award were Club Youth Services Chair Scott Shore (right) and Rotary Interact Liaison Ron McNeill. A donation will be made to the Interact Club in her honor.

Ron Campbell is presented with PC Rotary’s “Community Service Above Self” Award, recognizing his 30 years of volunteer service with the Granville Fire Department, nearly all as fire chief, leading up to his well-deserved “retirement” this year. Club President Tina Dolder presented the award, accompanied by a donation in his honor which Campbell directed to the Putnam County Food Pantry.

BIRTH ANNOUNCED Jacob and Theresa Albers are the parents of a son, Thomas Reagan, born June 25 at Lakenheath RAF Hospital in England. He weighed 6 pounds, 7 ounces and measured 19 1/2 inches in length. Maternal grandparents are Patricia and Casey Hammell. Paternal grandparent is Coral Albers.

• ROTARY Continued from Page 4 Another highlight of the evening was the club’s recognition of two outstanding community members for their volunteerism, demonstrating Rotary’s highest ideal of “Service Above Self.”

Melanie Trinidad was recognized for her extraordinary volunteer service as a student — now graduate — of Putnam County High School including her service as president of the PCHS Interact Club this past year. She was

joined by her parents for the presentation, which included a donation to PCHS Interact Club in her honor.

Ron Campbell was recognized for “Community Service Above Self” upon his retirement as volunteer firefighter, first responder, trainer and fire chief of the Granville Fire Department in which he has served as a volunteer for 30 years. Through Campbell’s leadership, the department updated its entire fleet of apparatus and equipment, and took the lead as Emergency First Responders to assist until ambulances arrive. He has often been cited as well for the highest num-

ber of department fire calls to which he personally responded. A club donation was made to the fire department in his honor. Campbell, originally from rural Magnolia where his family farmed, is now retiring to Tennessee with his wife of 38 years, Katie. We suspect they’ll be returning often, as the couple have three children and seven grandchildren all in the vicinity of Putnam County.

Marquis Energy partners with Princeton High School for ‘Energizing Education’ program

PRINCETON — Hennepin-based ethanol producer Marquis Energy has partnered with Princeton High School for its ‘Energizing Education’ program.

The program, which Marquis has implemented with several area schools beginning with Putnam County, focuses on mentoring students one-onone, goal-setting by students to improve academic performance, providing financial incentives to encourage and recognize success and identifying students who are under performing or are at risk.

According to Dennis Thompson, who oversees the program, the Marquis family started the program at Putnam County High School during their second semester about six years ago.

“The family, through Marquis Energy company, spends about $150,000 per year and without COVID, would have spent almost twice that much had we had a normal school year,” Thompson said.

The primary source for mentors is teachers and other personnel who are employees of the school district and who volunteer to participate in the program. The main objectives of a mentor are to help students set and meet their individual goals and to model, through his/her own personal character, a commitment to student success.

Students who are striving to improve their academic experience, are accepted into the program and required to set two goals for the semester and to meet regularly with their mentor for 30 minutes each week throughout that semester. The students’ objective is to reach their stated goals by the end of the semester.

Students must set two goals for a semester. The first goal must be a quantitative goal, i.e. one that can be measured to show improvement in academic performance. The second goal can be either quantitative or qualitative in nature, but in either case, the second goal should support the first

goal. A qualitative goal is one that facilitates and helps to improve the quality and degree of the quantitative goal; it can be observed rather than measured.

PHS Principal Andy Berlinski said school administration is looking forward to the partnership and right now they are working on their end to finalize the program, application process and specific expectations they will have for the mentors and students who will take part in the program.

“We are excited to partner with Marquis Energy in order to help support our students who will benefit from this program,” Berlinski said.

“At this time, we are still working to finalize what will be presented to both students and staff in the early fall.

“Our goal is to have everything in place so that we can meet the recommended time frame for implementation that was given to us by Marquis Energy. Dennis Thompson has been a fantastic resource through all of this.”

Thompson said Marquis Energy,

through the Energizing Education program, has helped some students complete their graduation requirements, improved the GPA of many students, helped to promote a change in student behavior, allowing them to succeed in school and in some cases to be a better employee, broadened the future horizon for a few, even helped many of the students to earn money.

The PC Progressors recently planted a Green Mountain Sugar Maple tree on the John Swaney Campus to honor Marie Debates.

Marie’s family attended the dedication along with members of the PC Progressors 4-H Club. Margy Mattern wrote and read the following tribute:

Marie Debates was a beloved teacher (retired from Henry Senachwine High School) who became a part of our PC Progressors 4-H Club as she was raising her grandson, Noah.

Not only was she present at every meeting as his grandmother, but she became very involved with PC Progressors as an assistant leader. She was the first to volunteer to bring whatever was needed for supplies, snacks, etc. and her input in planning and facilitating club events was much appreciated. Most importantly, she had a genuine love and concern for all the kids in the 4-H club. She showed this by her attendance, her participation and her million-dollar smile. Marie had a heart for all youth and involved herself in activities where kids could grow and bloom. Her career as a teacher was proof of this, as was her passion as a mother and grandmother, and her interest in our 4-H club. We count ourselves among the lucky ones. She is greatly missed by all who knew her. This tree, a Green Mountain Sugar Maple is intended to honor Marie’s memory. Its place here on the Swaney campus is very fitting as it will provide shade for PC students through the years, especially during the softball season. She would be very pleased.

HEALTH MATTERS

Shake up a stale workout

Eating less and moving more are the hallmarks of many fitness regimens, especially those designed for people who want to lose weight.

Maintaining a healthy weight can help reduce risk factors for many illnesses, making weight loss a worthy goal for those who can afford to shed a few pounds.

While people have good intentions when designing their exercise regimens, over time hitting the treadmill or doing a weight circuit can lose its appeal. When exercise routines become stale, people may be put off from doing something that is essential to their overall health. Routinely switching things up can keep workouts fresh and exciting.

TRY A TRENDY WORKOUT Experiment with a new fitness trend to see if you like it. Start by talking with a personal trainer or group exercise captain at your fitness center. Chances are they’ve already implemented novel workouts for their clients and they can walk you through

some of the offerings. So whether it’s barre classes that make you feel like a prima ballerina or renegade rowing to emulate a crew team, new exercises can help to banish boredom.

CUT DOWN ON WORKOUT TIME It’s easy to lose interest in a lengthy workout. High-intensity workouts can streamline exercise to 30 minutes or less and produce the same results as longer, less intense regimens. High intensity interval training, or HIIT, is a popular regimen that pairs bursts of maximum-output moves with short recoveries to streamline efforts.

BRING A FRIEND ALONG A buddy to exercise alongside can make a regimen fun even if you’ve done the same things over and over.

Plus, a healthy dose of lighthearted competition may motivate you to keep going.

CHANGE SMALL COMPONENTS Apart from preventing boredom, changes to a routine also benefit your

body. If exercise regimens are never altered, and you keep doing the same number of reps and sets, your body can adapt to these workouts and make it difficult to break plateaus.

Lack of variation also may decrease focus, which can make it hard to

achieve your fitness goals. A consultation with a personal trainer can help you adapt your routine or find an entirely new one.

Altering a workout regimen from time to time can help people overcome stale routines. TF217065

PERU

St. Bede auction reaches historic half million

Fund-A-Need goal reached, Abbey Church repairs to begin PERU — The 38th annual St. Bede Auction, “Just Imagine,” became a reality on June 19, The Perino Science Center was home to the first St. Bede fundraising event since the pandemic began in 2020. With just more than 100 people in the room, every goal was achieved making for another historic night for the academy. St. Bede in Peru also exceeded its Fund-A-Need goal of $205,000, to repair all the skylights in the Abbey Church. A detailed video was shared describing how vital the building is to the community and the visible damage and repairs needing to be done.

With a lead gift of $15,000 from the Miller Group Charitable Trust, Angelo Perino ’80 offered to match the lead gift if another person in the room joined him, and a paddle was raised.

From that level on, paddles were raised high from the $10,000 to $250. At the $2,500 level Peru Federal Savings Bank and Mrs. Joan Perona offered to match up to $5,000 each to reach $10,000. At the $1,000 level, Dr. Michael ’73 and Mrs. Allison (Hebel) ’78 Rooney challenged 10 people in the room to raise their paddles to reach their

match of $10,000 and match they did as the auctioneer yelled out numbers from at least 20 paddles in the air at the $1,000 level.

Several times during the evening the St. Bede family strived to reach the goal needed in order to start work on the Abbey Church in July. As the live auction was concluding and it was announced the Fund-A-Need was $30,000 shy of its goal, two donors agreed to donate half, if those in the room could raise the other half. With Abbot Philip Davey at the front of the room, paddles started to raise once again until the goal was reached and the group broke out in applause.

“The generosity from our St. Bede family was incredibly moving Saturday night,” Davey said. “We are truly blessed with the out pouring of generosity and our hearts are full knowing our beloved Abbey Church will be repaired.”

Once again, mobile bidding was a success with participants bidding from near and far.

“The ability to mobile bid has truly impacted the auction, especially during the pandemic,” said Bonnie Prokup, auction and special events manager. “Every year it gets better and better, and everyone loves how easy it is and that anyone can be involved, no matter where you are.”

Some highlights from the live auction included an exclusive Silver Oak

The Perino Science Center at St. Bede Academy in Peru was home to the first St. Bede fundraising event since the pandemic began in 2020.

Package donated by David and Kary Duncan, which sold for $11,000, and a Rich Harvest Farms package which sold three times and was generously matched by Jerry Rich.

Quite the hit this year was the introduction of the Mega Raffle and the Jayco Motorhome which added to reaching the $500,000 net figure. Favorites that returned were the Bedan Bonanza and St. Bede’s Golden Ticket.

Director of Mission Advancement Julia Yaklich said all numbers indicate that St. Bede have well netted more than $500,000 and that it was a historic night for St. Bede.

“Not even a pandemic can shake a 130-year foundation.” Yaklich said.

“We are deeply grateful to all those on campus, on-line and on their phone Saturday night and all those that donated to St. Bede.”

Uptown Grill still a mainstay night on the town Ask about “fine dining” in La Salle-Peru and most would likely direct you to the Uptown Grill in La Salle.

While there is no dress code, and the prices are not stratospheric, this well-run eatery always has been a default setting for a special night on the town.

And it remains so. A recent visit by Mystery Diner shows they’ve lost nothing in the way of quality food or attentive service.

The name “Uptown” was always something of a misnomer, because this La Salle mainstay has always been situated in downtown La Salle, perched at the corner of First and Gooding streets since the late 1990s after moving from a nearby arcade.

The ownership was noted for its innovative business model, being the area’s first to replace printed menus with electronic tablets.

The striking décor recently was overhauled, as well, with darker woods and reconfigured seating installed within the past five years.

About the food itself, however, the Uptown has been more guarded when altering its menu.

Certainly, the restaurant has creative specials, but much of the menu is triedand-true. Longtime diners will recognize staples such as ’shrooms, rumaki and Gorgonzola potato chips.

The Uptown website notes the restaurant bakes its own breads daily, and makes all of its dressings, sauces and stocks from scratch.

The char-broiled steaks are cut and aged in-house, and prime rib is featured on Friday and Saturday nights.

The menu has an extensive list of appetizers, salads and sandwiches.

The bar offers 100 wines by the bottle, and 12 craft beers on tap, in addition to bottles. Hand-crafted cocktails are a specialty.

My dining companion and

Uptown Grill in downtown La Salle is known as a destination for American cuisine.

LEFT: The half-pound burger, a staple at the Uptown Grill in La Salle, includes a choice of toppings (Mystery Diner opted for bacon and American cheese) plus a side dish. The choice here was truffle fries. RIGHT: Bleu cheese-topped tenderloins are a treat. The restaurant has higher-end entrees available for those celebrating a special occasion or simply enjoying a night on the town.

I opted for two familiar menu items: the half-pound burger and bleu cheese-topped beef tenderloins – plus Death by Chocolate for dessert – enjoyed on the patio on a warm spring night.

The Uptown long has had an outdoor dining component, which gave it a leg up last year when we eased out

of the virtual shutdown at the height of the pandemic.

The Uptown also expanded its takeout service during the pandemic, and designated two parking spaces on Gooding Street with signs for grab-and-go motorists.

Currently, the restaurant’s hours are 4 to 8 p.m.

Mondays; 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays; 11 a.m. to 9 p.m.

Fridays and Saturdays; and 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Sundays.

The Uptown Grill is located at 601 First St. in La Salle, and is open seven days a week. Takeout orders can be placed online at uptowngrill.com.
