Potholes versus progress Timberline Drive residents and township agree to take a small step forward

BY DAVE COOK news@putnamcountyrecord.com GRANVILLE — For the time being, Timberline Drive will remain as it has, a potholed road for which no group will claim ownership. Passed like a hot potato between Putnam County officials, Granville Township officials and the road’s residents, the issue of the state of the road has resulted in little more than resentment and anger.

That frustration was on public display at the Granville Township board meeting on Sept. 26 as residents, a Putnam County board member and the Granville Township board clashed over the road’s fate.

The subdivision’s developers, who the township says are now deceased, failed to construct the road to the proper standards which would allow them to collect Motor Fuel Tax (MFT) funds from the state.

“I guess the easiest way to explain it to you people is that the township budget is made up to take care of township roads and bridges. Timberline is not considered part of Granville Township,” Jim Moriarty, Granville Township supervisor, said as the meeting began.

In the past, the township has been providing minor work to the road as a goodwill gesture.

A resident said she’d spoken to Tammy Mehalic, Putnam County supervisor of assessments, and said she was told Timberline Drive was a public road because they hadn’t been assessed for it.

“No, it’s not. It’s never been accepted. She is wrong and she doesn’t know what she’s talking about,” John Grivetti, Granville Township attorney, said.

The Putnam County Record contacted Mehalic, who said the homeowner’s deeds will legally describe the property they own.

Editor remembered as talented storyteller PCR’s Terri Simon dies at age 59

BY SHANNON SERPETTE sserpette@bcrnews.com PRINCETON – Bureau County Republican Editor Terri Simon, an award-winning journalist, columnist and photographer, died Sept. 24, at the University of Iowa Hospital in Iowa City, Iowa. She was 59.

Simon, who lived in Sheffield, first joined the Bureau County Republican staff as a part-time photographer in 1994 and was named editor in 2003. She also served as editor of additional Shaw Media publications, including Illinois Valley Living Magazine, the Putnam County Record and Tonica News.

• POTHOLES Continued from Page 1 “I genuinely believe the homeowners don’t own that road, but I’m not an attorney and this isn’t my fight,” Mehalic said.

“We have never had to take care of that road because it’s never been up to state specs,” Moriarty said during the meeting.

Residents then said the fact the township has made those temporary goodwill repairs had set a precedent.

“Well, that’s going to stop,” Moriarty replied.

With the village of Mark being so close to Timberline Drive and the village having annexed other nearby properties, they have been mentioned by board members at previous meetings as a potential solution.

Mark’s village president, Frank Niewinski, proposed a potential next step. Niewinski asked the township to provide residents with a copy of the specifications required for the road to be accepted.

“My engineers have told me a simple solution is for approximately a thousand dollars you could do a couple of core samples, meter the road for traffic and then find out if the road is suitable for the traffic that goes on that road,” he said.

Niewinski said if the road has passed the test of time, and he said he felt it had, it could allow a way for the township to work

Those who knew Simon appreciated her passion for telling an accurate, well-crafted news story.

Former Princeton Mayor Keith Terri Cain knew Simon Simon for approximately 35 years, both on a personal level through their shared support of Relay for Life and through Simon’s work at the Bureau County Republican.

“Terri was the fairest reporter there ever was. She didn’t make the news, she reported the news,” Cain said.

As with any long-term relationship, there were bumps in the road for Simon and Cain.

“There were times we didn’t agree,” Cain said.

Whenever that happened, Cain

with the residents.

“You have to realize there’s no one who put that subdivision out there alive today,” Moriarty said.

“Then why do we have to be held hostage to that?” resident Lynn Gruenwald asked.

Moriarty replied residents should’ve realized the situation before they built or purchased their homes within the subdivision.

“Who honestly buys a house and stops to consider the road it’s built on?” resident Joseph King asked.

“I probably would’ve never asked that question either,” Moriarty admitted.

Residents then pressed the board to explain why the developers weren’t held accountable for the road failing to meet standards.

Much of the meeting revolved around hypothetical situations in an attempt to prove or disprove ownership and liability, but they did little to move the problem toward a solution.

The township board felt the short length of Timberline drive and the estimated $400 in annual MFT funds they’d receive couldn’t justify the significant expense of maintaining it, especially at the expense of the township’s other roads.

“Let’s try to work with these people,” Niewinski said to the board.

“Why is it so hard to work with your neighbors? We’re part of this community and

said he appreciated Simon’s upfront nature. The two would discuss their differences and move on.

Bureau County Republican Publisher Sam Fisher also had a longtime working relationship with Simon.

“Terri applied for a parttime photographer’s position in 1993 – she got the job. Truth be known, she knew nothing about photography, but she quickly learned and excelled at it.

She wasn’t formally trained as a reporter or editor but that didn’t stop her from mastering that craft as well. It was her style to acknowledge her shortcomings and work hard to overcome them,” Fisher said. “It was her spirit to believe that anything was possible that made her such an invaluable asset to the BCR and the community.”

Simon’s willingness to share her feelings in her columns and to

you’re turning your backs on us,” King said.

Residents said the road had been there for decades and added they weren’t looking for curbs or streetlights, just to simply have their problem addressed without a major fight.

“Last year, Mr. Sloan (Putnam County Highway engineer Pat Sloan) gave everyone this letter that says ‘Option C is that the township could accept the road in an as-is state,’” said a resident.

Moriarty replied by saying the option specified it was the township’s decision and that they didn’t want to accept it.

Granville Township trustee Frank Vulcani said it would cost approximately $250,000 to bring the road up to state specifications.

“You keep bringing up motor fuel taxes, but these residents pay other taxes. They’re paying your wages, paying for the trucks, for the fuel, they’re paying for everything else. It looks to me like you guys are just dodging a bullet and you need to step up and be men about it,” Mark board trustee Leonard Bertuli said.

By the end of the meeting, there was a tenuous agreement by both sides to proceed with the core samples, paid for by the residents. After the samples are taken, they will be presented to the township board who will then decide whether or not they wish to take further steps.

try to understand every source’s point of view gave her credibility with her dedicated readers.

“She had a connection with readers because she focused more on the personal aspect of writing to her it was all about the people,” Fisher said. “Terri’s passing is a great loss to the BCR and to our community as a whole. She will be profoundly missed by us at the newspaper and the BCR readers whose lives she touched.”

Bureau County Sports Editor Kevin Hieronymus worked for years alongside Simon and was deeply saddened to hear of her death.

“She was my colleague, my boss and my friend. While we had our ups and downs, we became very close over the years and she provided a good sounding board for me. She loved Bureau County and Bureau County loved her back,” Hieronymus said.

PRINCETON

Fisher leaving to lead statewide newspaper group PCR publisher will be president and CEO of Illinois Press Association

BY PUTNAM COUNTY RECORD STAFF PRINCETON — During his 34 years with Shaw Media, Sam Fisher has been a champion of newspapers and a proponent for the public’s right to know.

Now, Fisher will do that work on behalf of newspapers statewide and nationally.

The Illinois Press Association on Wednesday announced that Fisher has been selected as the new president and chief executive officer for the IPA, Illinois Press Foundation and National Newspaper Association. The IPA represents more than 450 daily and weekly newspapers, including the Bureau Coun-

Sam Fisher

ty Republican. The NNA has 2,200 members.

Fisher, who has been publisher of the Bureau County Republican, Putnam County Record and Tonica News since 1993, will join the IPA on Oct. 25. Fisher also was publisher of Sauk Valley Media from 2014 to earlier

this year.

“It was a difficult decision to leave a great company like Shaw Media, which I’ve called home for so long,” Fisher said.

“In the final analysis, I felt that this position was a good fit for me professionally; and I felt, given my newspaper experience, coupled with my knowledge of the association and Illinois newspapers, that I was also a good fit for the IPA.” Fisher is the immediate past chair of the IPA board of directors. He succeeds

Dennis DeRossett, who resigned his position in mid-May. IPA legal counsel Don Craven will continue to serve as the IPA’s interim president and CEO until Fisher’s official start.

Shaw Media President and CEO John Rung lauded the work Fisher has done for the company’s newspapers and their readers.

“Sam had a tremendous career with us, and we are very grateful for his service,” Rung said. “We are sorry he is leaving, but as a member of IPA we will benefit from his tremendous leadership at an organization that is so important to the future of local journalism across the state. We’re proud of him, and look forward to continuing our relationship with him in his new role.”

Fisher was selected after an extensive search process that spanned 4 months and included publishers from across the

state and representatives from the IPA, IPF and NNA boards of directors.

“I’m excited about this opportunity, as the IPA is such a great organization with such a talented staff,” Fisher said. “I’ve always felt the role of the IPA is critical to the continued success of Illinois newspapers, and that’s why I have been in involved in the organization for so many years.”

Fisher and Lori Frick live in Princeton. He has two daughters, Meg, 17, of Princeton and Brooke (Tim) Miller of Woodstock, Ga.; and a son, Ben, of Princeton. He also has two grandsons. He is a graduate of the University of Missouri School of Journalism, joining Shaw Media in 1983 and holding various management positions at the Northwest Herald in Crystal Lake and at the Kane County Chronicle before joining the Bureau County Republican.

Ridge Wind Farm in Bureau County. The developer is BHE Renewables, a Des Moines, Iowa-based subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway Energy.

“We issued the first building permit Aug. 10, and they are planning to build 106 turbines,” said Kris Donarski, zoning officer in

Bureau County.

Separate permits are needed for each turbine, Donarski said. The project was green-lighted in January 2016, when the Bureau County Board approved new special-use zoning permits.

See WIND FARM, Page 5

Continued from Page 3 Biagi-Bruer also said the PC-EMA annually applies for and receives funds from the Emergency Management Performance Grant (EMPG). These funds come from the Department of Homeland Security funds, are administered by the IEMA and distributed to counties based on population.

“This year our EMPG grant amount is $16,476.23. The EMPG grant is a 50 percent grant which means the county is reimbursed 50 percent for funds expended for day-to-day operations up to $16,476.23.

These operations include coordinator and assistant coordinator salaries, utility bills, office supplies and other equipment.

This money is not for disaster response or recovery,” she said.

She said the PC-EMA also receives Hazardous Materials Emergency Preparedness Planning (HMEP) grant money. The HMEP grant is an 80 percent grant and funding comes from the U. S. Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration and is administered by IEMA. This grant is a three-year grant (2017-2019) and Biagi-Bruer said the PC-EMA award amount was approximately $6,000.

The HMEP grant is based on the Local Emergency Planning Committee (LEPC) and Putnam County is a part of the Bureau-Putnam LEPC. “The total amount shared between the two counties during this grant is $17,375.

Putnam County is using this money to conduct a Commodity Flow Study, update our Hazardous Materials Plan, and to attend the Midwest Emergency Preparedness and Response Conference annually,” Biagi-Bruer said.

In 2012, PC-EMA received a $300,000 grant which was used to purchase their building in Hennepin, the approximately six acres surrounding it, and the construction of an Emergency Operations Center within the building, as well as the adjacent garage addition.

TERRI SIMON

HIT-AND-RUN FATALITY

SHEFFIELD — Terri L. Simon, 59, of Sheffield passed away Sunday, Sept. 24, 2017, at University of Iowa Hospital in Iowa City, Iowa.

She was born Jan. 13, 1958, in Princeton to Judy (Simon) Dyke.

She was a graduate of Princeton High School. She had worked for Nashville Greyline Tours in sales and as a guide. She started at the Bureau County Republican as a part-time photographer in 1994 and became the editor in 2003, a position she currently held.

She was a member of Princeton Rotary and was instrumental in forming Business Buddies, a classroom project for Princeton Elementary students. She had a passion for writing, traveling, sketching, music and gardening.

Surviving are her mother, Judy Dyke; her life partner, Kathryn Clark; her Golden Girl, Purrcee; sisters of the heart, Pam Marsh, Rebecca Clark-Lloyd and Kim Moriarity; three cousins, Debbie (Curt) Rowland, and Dennis and Mark Greene; three second cousins, Jeff Simon, Kim (Scott) Bauer and Rebekah Rowland; two aunts, Myrna Simon and Beverly Weir; and extended loving family.

She was preceded in death by her grandparents, August Fred and Ruby Simon; an uncle, Greg Simon; and an aunt, Shirley Schmotzer.

Services were held at 9 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 28, at the Norberg Memorial Home in Princeton with Pastor Scott Schmidt officiating. Private burial was in Oakland Cemetery in Princeton.

Dobrich faces additional charges OTTAWA — Luke T. Dobrich, 39, of Oglesby now faces additional charges in the hit-andrun accident which killed Wyatt K.L. Wyatt, 22, of Spring Valley in June.

Wyatt’s body was found

on Bottom Road between Granville and Peru and Dobrich was arrested soon after. He initially faced charges for one count of leaving the scene of an accident leading to a death, a Class 4 felony.

Dobrich paid 10 percent of a $100,000 bond and was released pending his trial.

On Sept. 26, a LaSalle County grand jury indicted Dobrich on the additional charges of one count of reckless homi-

cide and two counts of aggravated DUI. Dobrich remains free on the original bond and his next court date will be an arraignment/status hearing scheduled for 9 a.m.

• WIND FARM

which once had the Walnut Ridge project, too, is developing the Green River project on about 13,500 acres of farmland.

A recent development with Walnut Ridge, however, bodes well for the eventual completion of the Green River project.

Two weeks ago, Walnut Ridge LLC closed on a land deal that will allow a transfer station to be built in Whiteside County. The Walnut Ridge developers bought 44 acres of land on Jersey Road near Deer Grove from Marc Schutz for more than $900,000.

“The transfer station will be used to transfer ener-

gy from both wind farms to the grid,” said Stu Richter, Whiteside zoning and building administrator.

The Green River plans date back to 2009, starting with Mainstream Renewable Energy, which sold the project to Geronimo in December 2013.

Geronimo plans to build 66 turbines, but only four would be in Whiteside County. BHE Renewables bought part of the Green River project that was supposed to be in Bureau County.

The Green River project has been held up by issues with its proximity to privately owned prairi-

eland, Deer Grove’s decision to not have turbines, and landowner lawsuits.

The company lost three turbines in an agreement to keep the project a halfmile away from 22 miles of prairie owned by Greg Wahl, CEO of Wahl Clipper Corp. Wahl and his attorney, noted environmental specialist Rick Porter, had voiced concerns that the turbines likely would disturb the natural habitat of threatened species.

Lee County approved a zoning permit extension that doesn’t expire until May 2019, but Whiteside County’s latest 3-year extension is up in August.

Continued from Page 4 The Zoning Board of Appeals, after conducting several public hearings, had recommended that the County Board deny the zoning requests.

The project is on 14,000 acres of land in northern Bureau County. It includes parts of Ohio and Walnut, and Greenville, Manlius and Bureau townships.

Building permits have yet to be issued in either Lee or Whiteside counties for the Green River Wind Farm. Geronimo Energy,

Boekeloo He’s living the dream. I often get phone calls from him, stating, “Pack your bags! We’re moving. It is so beautiful here!” I feel a rush as he describes the scenery, or relays a story of the people he has met in his travels.

My brother didn’t get this gene. He hates driving to Spring Valley for an errand. Now he is traveling to China on a regular basis, and I’m sure it’s against his will.

At 19, my best friend and I hit the road Thelma and Louise style, and made a quick trip to Oklahoma to see friends. It was one of the most memorable experiences of my life. We were sleep deprived, young, silly and adventurous. The 2 a.m. renditions of singing (at top volume) the Spider-Man Song will forever be burned in my memory.

As far as I remember, we didn’t shoot a rude trucker or fall in love with Brad Pitt, but we also didn’t drive my Ford Ranger off of a cliff to avoid the law, so I guess our story ended happier than the movie did. We did, however, pet buffalos and get attacked by some wild goats at a petting zoo.

When my daughter graduated from eighth grade, my gift to her was a road trip to Tucson. My grandparents had done the same for me several years earlier.

Many times during the trip she said, “Mom, this is the best thing you could have ever given me.” You have to remember, at this time in our lives, my attentions were always divided between work, the other children, being a mom, volunteer work, etc, so to have me as a captive audience and have my undivided attention was a gift to her. We had so much fun, stopping along the way and sight seeing.

Imagine my excitement when a current employer announced she would have to make a trip to Tennessee.

I flailed my arm in the air and volunteered enthusiastically to make the trip for her. It was almost seven hours one way, and I couldn’t be happier. I told her I would use the time to be quiet, reflect, and think (something I don’t have the time to do when I’m home).

To someone who isn’t inclined to love an open highway, my enthusiasm seemed puzzling, but she conceded, gave me some gas money and sent me on my way.

Despite the heat, I opened the sunroof and windows and cranked Hair Nation on the radio, which did much to transport me back to my wild, carefree days. My singing was loud and filled with passion, and thankfully lost in the roar of the wind as I sailed down the road.

During this time, I began thinking about people who don’t like to travel. They get carsick, are frustrated by traffic, need to stop at rest areas frequently and dislike the whole process of getting from point A to point B. They whine like a toddler in a car seat, flinging their sippy cup in anger as they scream and fight and battle the confines of their safety device. Me? I’m like a golden retriever with my head out the window, tongue flapping in the wind, drooling all over the back seat windows.

In traveling through life, what kind of traveler are you?

Do you see the blessings and the scenery? Can you pick out the wildlife at the tree line and thank God for their beauty and presence? Do you revel in the clouds and enjoy the warmth of the sunlight on your face? Do you imagine the lives of your fellow travelers and use your imagination to create stories of what their lives may be like?

Maybe you don’t look up from the pavement traveling beneath your tires. Maybe you see that deer as a potential hazard and curse its presence near the road for fear it will force you to make that midnight phone call to Jake at State Farm. Are the clouds you see black with rain? Does the sunlight hurt your eyes? Are the stories about your fellow travelers wrought with the idea that they are only on the road with you in order to cut you off and make your journey miserable?

I challenge you to reflect on your journey. Look in your side view mirror and analyze your face, your thoughts, your feelings and see if you are getting the most out of life. Take a moment. Put the sippy cup down. Turn up Hair Nation and rock on.

Is there anything you would change? I wouldn’t change a thing.

Madigan reigns and remains – why?

H

ouse Speaker Mike Madigan has no signature legislative accomplishment.

He has no obvious successor to his throne. He has no monument, unless you count billions of dollars in public debt.

What he does have is longevity.

No modern lawmaker has held a House speakership for longer.

Madigan broke that record earlier this year.

The obvious question: why does he remain?

Why not stop when you break the record for wearing the crown longer than anyone? The impact of public policy on the lives of Illinoisans clearly was never a driving force behind his political career. If it were, he would have retreated into hiding long ago.

Of course, Madigan remains because he controls a one-of-a-kind political machine in the Land of Lincoln.

Of course, Madigan remains because a group of about 20,000 Illinoisans are intent on re-electing him to represent a small patch of land near Midway Airport every two years.

Of course, Madigan remains because Democratic House members can’t bear voting for anyone else for speaker.

Of course, Madigan remains because he’s the only state legislative leader in the nation who also serves as a party chairman.

COMMENTARY Austin Berg

But these are simply mechanisms though which he maintains power. What makes him pursue that end, still? When has one eaten so much that one feels a need to push back from the table?

His daughter, Lisa Madigan, has decided against running for a fifth term as attorney general in 2018.

But even though she decided to pass on another four years in her post, she has already broken the record for longest-serving attorney general in Illinois history.

“No father could be prouder of his daughter’s personal and professional accomplishments,” the speaker said in a statement, “and I look forward to watching her continue her commitment to helping people in a new capacity.”

But Speaker Madigan wasn’t too keen on watching Lisa help people in a new capacity as governor. In 2013, he refused to step aside to allow for her potential gubernatorial run.

Clearly, he’s not in this for anyone else’s sake. So what could it be?

A recent column from Chicago journalist Phil Kadner might offer insight. Kadner wrote that in an interview 17 years ago, he asked Madigan what motivated him.

“[Madigan] said there were two things that really mattered to him as House speaker,” Kadner wrote.

“The first was maintaining the Democratic Party’s majority in the Illinois House of Representatives.

The second was his daughter, Lisa Madigan’s, political career.”

The 2018 gubernatorial election will decide more than just the executive branch. It will have a heavy sway on who sits in Madigan’s chamber, as well. That’s because next year’s election will determine who resides in the governor’s mansion when the state’s legislative map is redrawn following the 2020 census.

If a Democrat wins, Madigan will likely have no trouble doing what he’s done through several decades of Illinois history – draw the map heavily in favor of his party. But should Gov. Bruce Rauner stick around, Madigan would need to contend with the veto pen.

Can the speaker outlast Rauner?

If so, his map will go a long way toward securing Democratic Party dominance in the General Assembly into the 2030s.

Perhaps then, as the final line is drawn and the new governor’s signature has gone dry, Madigan will excuse himself from the dinner table.

Lady landowners visit McLean County

HENRY — The Marshall-Putnam River Conservancy sponsored its annual ladies trip for area lady landowners.

On Sept. 12, the tour headed into McLean County for a day of agriculture.

After a brief breakfast at the Henry Presbyterian Church, the ladies boarded the bus and headed south. Their first stop was to the Funk Prairie Home and Gem Museum. They toured the prairie home, built in 1864. The details and intricate design captivated the tour group as they moved throughout the home. They learned of how life and farming were in the late 1800s. The gem museum showcased many beautiful and amazing collections, some of which are rare and some even glow in the dark. It houses a 30-year collection of minerals, artifacts and carvings.

From there, the tour wandered about 30 minutes to the south, to a small town of Atlanta, where they enjoyed a luncheon at the Palms Grill. A 1930-40s themed café that opened first in 1934 and is along Route 66. After lunch, the ladies headed over to the PrairiErth Farm. There they were treated to the how-tos of organic farming, different practic-

Great Apple Crunch Day celebration set for Oct. 12 HENRY — One of fall’s anticipated pleasures is biting into a fresh crisp apple.

The Marshall-Putnam Schools have been invited to celebrate Illinois Great Apple Crunch Day by University of Illinois Extension M-P Ag in the Classroom.

This event encourages school cafeterias to serve locally grown apples for lunch, emphasizing the nutritional benefits of eating locally

grown foods.

Posters and fact sheets have been distributed to all school cafeterias

by M-P AITC. Teachers may supplement the day with educational facts and activities that center on apples.

This is the third year for Illinois to participate in this event which originated in the Great Lakes region as part of the National Farm to School Network. This includes the states of Wisconsin, Minnesota, Michigan,

Indiana and Ohio.

Last year 600,000 students in the region crunched into apples on Crunch Day. Sponsors of this event are Illinois Ag in the Classroom, Illinois Farm Bureau, Illinois Farm to School Network, Illinois Specialty Growers Association and Illinois Department of Agriculture.

For more information, call 309364-2356.

PRINCETON

Get ready for a battle Shadows of the Blue and Gray will return to Princeton on Oct. 14 and 15

BY GOLDIE RAPP Shaw Media Services

PRINCETON — Princeton’s annual Shadows of the Blue and Gray Civil War re-enactment event will be held in City County Park on Saturday, Oct. 14 and Sunday, Oct. 15.

The show brings history to life as it accurately portrays what it was like for soldiers and civilians during one of America’s most trying eras.

There will be many great attractions to see including battle re-enactments, visits from Abe Lincoln and General Ulysses S. Grant, tours of the soldier and civilian campsites, artisan workshops, medical demonstrations following the battles and much more.

The battle re-enactments will begin at 2:30 p.m. both days. Saturday night at dusk, the artillery units will put on a cannon night fire show.

“What you don’t see in the day time is the huge plume of fire that comes out of the cannons…oranges, yellows and reds from 10 to 30 feet long. It’s very, very impressive,” said Edd Robinson, a member of the planning committee.

On Sunday, there will be a non-denominational peri-

od church service at 9 a.m.

And many of the scheduled events on Saturday will continue at the same times on Sunday.

Throughout the weekend, a silent auction will take place in the pavilion.

And tickets will be sold for a 50/50 drawing and raffle for a $250 meat package from Wyanet Locker. Tickets for the 50/50 drawing can be purchased now at Johnson’s Carpet Shoppe in Princeton. The monies raised through the auction, raffle and drawing will help support next year’s Shadows of the Blue and Gray event.

Pre-sale tickets for this year’s event are being sold now at discount. Tickets purchased in advance are $4 a person, which is $1 off normal admission price.

Visit Shadows of the Blue and Gray Facebook page or email merobinson03@ gmail.com for more details on how to purchase tickets ahead of time.

The planning committee is also looking for more volunteers to help with this year’s event. Those interested should message the Facebook page or email address.

Robinson said this would be a great opportunity for high school students looking for community service hours.

An educational twist to this year’s Blue and Gray event PRINCETON — The Shadows of the Blue and Gray planning committee will open the weekend event a day early for area students to enjoy with their families on Friday, Oct. 13. All students within the Princeton Elementary School District will receive a coupon for free admission on this day.

Edd Robinson, a member of the planning committee, said he’s hoping the opportunity will spark interest for students in fifth grade and up. The committee has also invited students from Putnam County Schools and Chana School in Oregon.

“In today’s fast-paced electronics world, this is one way to get students

to understand better. … I think they will take home a better sense of what it was like back then,” he said.

On this one-day only opportunity, students will be able to view various stations and get one-on-one interactions with the re-enactors. There will be a cooking demonstration on what soldiers ate during the time period.

A display of weapons used during the Civil War will be available to see up close. Students will learn how soldiers were able to load and fire a .58 caliber musket in 20 seconds, which was far more difficult than it sounds. A war sergeant will drill students through the field. Medical scenarios will be

conducted after battle. Students will also be able to tour the camps and sit with soldiers and civilians to learn more about what they did during their down time.

Robinson said if this year’s student day is a success, the planning committee will bring it back and open the opportunity to more area students next year.

“You can only learn and absorb so much out of a book before you have to use your imagination. This way, students can see history firsthand. And when they see it, they retain it better, because it’s more exciting to them than the classroom setting,” he said.
