Granville recycling: Trashed!

Verda: ‘We can’t continue to go on with it’

By Ken Schroeder kschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — During the board meeting on Oct. 1, Granville Village Board President Doug Gimbal told the board the current method for recycling has got to go.

“We got a letter today from Waste Management about the recycling,” said Gimbal. “They’re having problems with (non-recyclable) contaminants in the recycling bins.”

Effective Oct. 1, if a recycling storage unit is

found to have any contaminant in it, Waste Management is instituting a $175 fee per contaminated container.

If continued violations occur, Waste Management will be converted to a refuse account and charged accordingly.

“I vote to get them out,” said Gimbal.

The problem stems from people who bring non-recyclable goods to the recycling center and dump them in the containers.

“It’s pretty sad when we provide things like that and bend over backwards to make it easi-

er for people, and they continue to bring this junk in there that’s not recyclable,” said board member Lou Verda. “We can’t continue to go on with it.”

“We can’t force the residents to recycle,” said board member Randy Borio. “But what we can do is eliminate

this (central bin system) and go to curbside recycling.”

“It’s unfortunate that we have to take them out because there were people who legitimately used it for what it’s supposed to be used for,” Gimbal said.

Mark hears speeding, trespassing complaints

By Ken Schroeder kschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

MARK — The Mark Village Board heard a list of complaints from resident Donna Jeppson who attended the Oct. 1 meeting, the first being an issue of trespassing.

“This is about trespass, not a civil issue. It never has been,” Jeppson said.

“Trespassing is a state and federal law.”

Jeppson alleged persons, including village board member Ray Veronda, had trespassed on her property and were disturbing items in her yard. Jeppson told the board she had two surveys done of her yard in the last three years to ascertain property lines and to indicate where trespassing borders would be.

“This is a property line dispute,” said Frank Niewinski, president. “The village is not going to get involved in a civil matter.”

Jeppson invoked the Freedom of Information Act, asking for copies of any pertinent ordinances — including the Burden ordinance — and any police reports or records regarding her property, to which Niewinski said he would comply.

She requested the copies come from Niewinski or any other official who might not have a conflict of interest in the case.

Jeppson also told the board village police were not enforcing the speed limit on West Hennepin Street.

“I have asked our officers to enforce that

“This is a property line dispute. The village is not going to get involved in a civil matter.”

Frank Niewinski speed limit because my kids go to my parents’ house there,” Niewinski said. “I have seen them there. You’d have to be there 24/7 to catch everyone. You can not be there around the clock.”

She said her two children had been struck by vehicles travelling too fast on the street, although when asked, she said neither child was injured in the mishaps.

In other action, the board: • Heard from Water and Sewer Chairman Ray Johnson hydrants would be flushed this week.

• Heard a report from Streets and Alleys Chairman Leonard Bertulli some street work is in progress, and work is going smoothly.

• Was told by Building and Grounds Chairman Scott Hultz one of the two service trucks has been sold, with a possible buyer lined up for the second. Bleachers for the park have also arrived.

• Decided to hold trick or treat from 6 to 8 p.m. on Halloween.

• Discussed hosting a CPR renewal class.

Putnam County Schools Superintendent Jay McCracken welcomes the public to the ceremony for the new Outdoor History Classroom at the primary school.

Learning in the great outdoors Outdoor classroom to broaden horizons

By Ken Schroeder kschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — The Putnam County Primary School held a ribbon-cutting ceremony for its newest classroom on Oct. 4. This room is different from the other classrooms There are no chairs, chalkboards or desks.

It doesn’t have any walls or a ceiling either.

The new outdoor history classroom is situated just southwest of the parking area in the shade of two trees. The idea is to give students a chance to do lessons outside, surrounded by nature in a more comfortable environment.

“The idea actually came from Mr. (Jay) McCracken. He’s very

into our history and our culture in the community,” said Ronda Cross, primary school principal.

“The idea also stems from the bronze plaques on all four corners that were here on this site when the high school was here.”

Members of the Hopkins High School Alumni Association were present for the event. The historical plaques were donated to the school by the association for placement around the classroom area. The alumni have also provided many pieces of artwork in the schools, which originally hung in the Hopkins building.

Putnam County Schools Superintendent Jay McCracken welcomed all to the ceremony, noting how the purpose of the outdoor classroom was a continuation of the dream of Dean Inman, one of the earliest principals at Hopkins High School.

Inman has been recognized by

educators for his forward movement in educational programs he started in 1918. The programs included educational improvements, activities and beautifying the building and grounds at Hopkins.

“I like to think that all of us are carrying on the work of Principal Dean Inman even today, as we beautify these grounds and dedicate this outdoor classroom that should be used by all of you for generations to come,” said McCracken.

“Pre-K through second-grade students will be able to use this site for any of their content areas, come out here to just enjoy the weather while they’re also learning how to change the environment,” Cross said.

As part of the ceremony, the students sang and presented thank you cards and flowers to the Hopkins High School Alumni.

Hunger in Putnam County a problem

By Ken Schroeder kschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — While experts have been saying the recession is over, that doesn’t seem to be the case overall. Millions of Americans struggle to put food on the table, including the Putnam County area, where a population of approximately 6,000 reflects the U.S. average.

“We generally serve about 100 families a month,” said Judy Hopkins, spokesperson for the Putnam County Food Bank. “We had a huge increase when the recession first hit, and it’s stayed

pretty consistent since then.”

The U.S. Census Bureau has reported 22 percent of households have felt one or more possible hardships in fulfilling their families’ basic needs in the past year. The hardships include trouble in meeting basic expenses: Rent or mortgage, utilities, phone service cut off, being unable to see a doctor or dentist when needed, and not having enough food.

“When we go to some of the houses on deliveries, we see houses that are empty of furniture, or people who are ill. I feel the poor are getting poorer for

sure,” Hopkins said.

“Last year was our highest number,” Hopkins said.

“It stays fairly consistent through the year including the holidays. It usually gets a little bit lighter during the summer.”

Of the 22 percent nationwide, 9 percent had at least one of these hardship issues, while 7 percent had at least two of the hardships, and 6 percent had gone through at least three or more hardships.

The report comes from the study “Measures of Well-Being: Living Conditions in the United States.”

The report has measured

well-being for families based on housing conditions, neighborhood conditions, community services offers, what appliances and electronic goods a household owns and the ability to meet basic needs.

Many households in the report have looked to get help from family or other community agencies.

Often this cannot be counted on. According to the study when a household had trouble, only 5 percent was able to get financial assistance from friends, 17 percent from family members and 10 percent from other sources.

The federal shutdown

By Donna Barker Shaw Media Service

PRINCETON — The federal government shutdown has not yet affected the local health department, and business is continuing as usual.

Hector Gomez, assistant administrator of the Bureau/Putnam County Health Department, said the health department has had several calls from area residents asking if the health department was open for business since the federal shutdown. As of now, things are going

on as normal at the health department, he said.

Looking at specific programs run through the health department, Gomez said the flu clinics are not affected by the government shutdown because the health department purchased its private vaccines with local funds, and the state has provided the influenza vaccines for the Vaccines for Children program.

The health department does have programs which are typically funded through federal grants, but those programs will continue as normal for now,

Gomez said. However, the federal funds for those programs are on hold due to the shutdown, and local money could be needed to fund those programs.

For federal grants, the health department submits for reimbursement every quarter but can typically “draw down” money if needed, Gomez said. With the government shutdown, the health department can’t drawn down regardless if the grant money is received monthly, quarterly or annually.

depends on the funds we have available from our other grants which will continue to pay and the fees we collect every month,” Gomez said.

Another area of concern for the public has been the WIC program for women, infants and children.

Gomez said the WIC program has not been affected at this time. Currently, the local health department has 726 active clients in its WIC program. Health department officials were told Thursday afternoon WIC will continue to operate as usual, Gomez said.

GRANVILLE — The Granville Village Board voted to purchase some canvas roll-up awnings for the shelter in Hopkins Park for $5,860 during their Oct. 1 meeting. The partitions will be used to seal off the west half of the pavilion and protect users from wind and rain.

Mark Hutchison of Peoria Tent and Awning had been contacted to present ideas to bring before the board. The first option was an 8-foot wide roll-up awning which can be left in place and locked down when extended. The partitions are then connected

Recycling

From Page 1 Gimbal told the board he would contact Waste Management immediately and have the bins removed. A Waste Management representative will be present at the next meeting.

In other action, the board: • Heard a report from Mike Richetta, standing in for village engineer Larry Good, concerning

to each other by Velcro.

Hutchison’s other suggestion was for 8-foot wide panels with aluminum frames which would be locked into place. The panels would have to be removed and stored when not in use.

Both options were available in vinyl or canvas and including a transparent vinyl section for visibility.

“I’m concerned with the manpower of taking these down and putting them back up,” said board member Randy Borio.

“With the roll curtain, we could just leave it there.”

Twelve of the 8-foot curtains will be purchased.

The price will cover installation. final payment for valve work as well as continuing work on water and sewer lines by Ossola Construction.

• Approved raises for village employees.

• Set the time and place for the Halloween parade. Line-up will be at Cioni Ford at 4:45 p.m.

The parade will start at 5 p.m. and continue to Hopkins Park. At the park, there will be pumpkin decorating, pictures, hot dogs and chili.

Keep on the lookout for emerald ash borer Several counties quarantined SPRINGFIELD — Jo Daviess is the latest county to fall victim to the emerald ash borer, a destructive pest responsible for killing millions of ash trees in North America. As it is the northwestern-most county in the state, EAB officially has spanned across the northern third of Illinois. EAB also was recently found in Whiteside County and confirmed this July.

The emerald ash borer is a small, metallic-green beetle native to Asia. Its larvae burrow into the bark of ash trees, causing the trees to starve and eventually die. Since the first detection of the pest near Detroit, Mich., in 2002, it has killed more than 25 million ash trees.

The beetle often is difficult to detect, especially in newly-infested trees. Signs of infestation include thinning and yellowing leaves, D-shaped holes in the bark of the trunk or branches and basal shoots. Anyone who suspects an ash tree has been infested should contact their county Extension office, their village forester or the Illinois Department of Agriculture.

Forty-one Illinois counties currently are under quarantine to prevent the artificial or “humanassisted” spread of the beetle through the movement of infested wood and nursery stock. A new, amended quarantine that includes Jo Daviess County soon will soon be

put in place, but not until after IDOA has finished inspecting monitoring traps that were placed in the state this year to track the beetle. The quarantine prohibits the removal of the following items: • The emerald ash borer in any living stage of development.

• Ash trees of any size.

• Ash limbs and branches.

• Any cut, non-coniferous firewood.

• Bark from ash trees and wood chips larger than 1 inch from ash trees.

• Ash logs and lumber with either the bark or the outer 1-inch of sapwood, or both, attached.

• Any item made from or containing the wood of the ash tree that is capable of spreading the emerald ash borer.

• Any other article, product or means of conveyance determined by the Illinois Department of Agriculture to present a risk of spreading the beetle infestation.

The counties under quarantine are Boone, Bureau, Champaign, Clark, Coles, Cook, Cumberland, DeKalb, DeWitt, Douglas, DuPage, Edgar, Effingham, Fayette, Ford, Grundy, Henry, Iroquois, Kane, Kankakee, Kendall, Knox, Lake, LaSalle, Lee, Livingston, Macon, Marion, Marshall, McHenry, McLean, Moultrie, Ogle, Piatt, Putnam, Shelby, Stark, Vermilion, Will, Winnebago and Woodford.

Illinois Valley’s own American (toy) pickers Duo buys and sells antique, unique items

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

TONICA/HENNEPIN — You see them on the television shows “American Pickers” and “Toy Hunters” — the avid collectors on the shows who look for the unique toys of yesterday. Those collectors try to resell the toys for a profit or add them to a treasured collection.

The Illinois Valley now has their own version of toy experts in Joseph Urbanc of Peru and David Hertz of Hennepin, otherwise known as IV Toy Boyz.

The two lifelong friends have been collecting toys for just as long. Urbanc enjoys the Star Wars and HeMan style toys. Hertz likes the older antique toys. As they grew up, they appreciated the special toys that were classics.

Urbanc had a friend who wanted to open a gaming shop. He asked the friend

“Just finding the things you don’t see every day, stuff like that got me intrigued.”

David Hertz if he could have a small section of the shop to sell his favorite old toys. While the friend never got the gaming shop up and running, Urbanc decided to go through his old toys in his parents’ basement.

As an only child until he was 11, his collection was quite extensive. Urbanc had 30 to 40 different lines of toys and started going online to review what some of the collections were worth. What he found surprised him.

“I started meeting people and trading,” he said.

“I sold and moved some other stuff, and it kind of took off from there.”

Hertz had a similar experience with toys. His father was an avid collector of vintage items as well.

“Just finding the things you don’t see every day,

stuff like that got me intrigued,” Hertz said.

While word of mouth has started their business, both Hurt and Urbanc use the Internet to help find, research and sell toys.

Urbanc uses Craigslist, and the business has a Facebook page.

“You’d be surprised at how I’ve met people from everywhere,” Urbanc said.

“We don’t work with as many people in the area here yet, but in bigger towns like Bloomington and the Quad Cities, we have helped people find things.”

The business buys, sells for themselves and others and also appraises items people may have. Both men are always checking out swap meets, flea markets, yard sales and other places to find unique toys.

Slow down, share the road MAGNOLIA — Since 2008, roadway collisions have been the second leading cause of Illinois farm-related deaths. To help reduce the amount of accidents, the county Farm Bureaus of Illinois, Illinois Department of Transportation (IDOT) and Illinois State Police launched, “Caution: Slow Down, Share the Road,” a rural roadway safety awareness program.

Twenty-nine Illinois

residents have died in roadway collisions with farm machinery during the last five years.

Rural motorists accounted for all deaths except three, who were farmers. Through the efforts of the “Caution: Slow Down, Share the Road” campaign, project partners aim to reduce rural roadway deaths to zero.

County Farm Bureaus, Illinois Department of Transportation, Illinois State Police, Sheriff’s

Association, Growmark and Country all work together for rural road safety especially during harvest/planting.

The Magnolia Fire Department approached the Marshall-Putnam Farm Bureau about the possibility of doing something to increase awareness of large machinery during the harvest season. Following this, the MarshallPutnam Farm Bureau Local Affairs Committee

purchased five banners to place throughout the two counties. The banners are located at Ag View FS in Varna, R & K Elevator in Putnam, the Steuben Township Shed, the corner of Route 18 and Route 89, and one on the Bottom Road in Putnam County. The department would like to say thank you to all of the businesses and landowners who allowed them to place the signage on their properties.

To the friends and family of Jim and Catherine Whitaker: the Granville United Church of Christ is pleased to announce the dedication of the James and Catherine Whitaker Education Center. The dedication will be on Sunday, October 13, starting at 12 noon with a potluck in Bonucchi Hall (please bring a dish to pass), the dedication liturgy, followed by entertainment, social time, and tours of the Education Center.

Please plan to attend!

They note most toys need to have all their parts, and their value price can be helped by how unique they are.

The duo doesn’t only handle the Star Wars style toys. Older toys like the Major Matt Mason line from the mid 1960s, old Barbies and even GI Joes of different sizes are some of the items they have moved recently.

Toy collectors often go by grading scales to denote in what condition a toy is in. Toys in their original boxes get a higher rating than those which are not. The Action Figure Association can also put their professional rating on a toy to help enhance its worth. The AFA will encase it in a clear, hard plastic casing, and they grade it and add a bar code.

To contact IV Toy Boyz look for them on Facebook or call Urbanc at 815-830-8737 or Hertz at 815-925-7510.

“Everything has a buyer,” said Hertz. “It’s just finding that buyer.”

Obituaries Bruce Boggio Bruce Michael Boggio was born on Dec. 28, 1957, and passed away on Aug. 28, 2013, reuniting with his parents, Joseph and Rose (Chivario) Boggio, as well as his Bruce niece, Arie Boggio Boggio, and nephew, Joshua Boggio.

Bruce leaves behind his daughter, three brothers, three sisters, eighteen nieces and nephews, seven great-nieces and great-nephews, and one special cousin, Lori.

Bruce’s daughter, Jessica, and her husband, Tim Kelly, live outside of Dallas, Texas. His brothers Joe Jr. and Vince and sister Mary (Mark) Judd all live in Hennepin. Living in Granville are Bruce’s brother, Keith (Denise), and sister, Cindy (Bill) Migliorini.

Bruce’s youngest sister, Kris (Dan) Trone, resides in McNabb.

Bruce’s friends and family are encouraged to share their memories at his memorial that will take place on Oct. 12 from 4 to 7 p.m. at the DysartCofoid Funeral Chapel in Granville.

Bruce wrote in personal journals; he called his life a wonder tale and was always ready for his next adventure. This is the story of Bruce’s 55-yearold adventure.

Bruce was born into the prosperous and hard working Boggio family.

He was an outgoing child that learned to blend with his older brother, Joe, and remaining siblings.

Bruce was very active in his family’s business, Boggio’s Country Produce and Boggio’s Orchard and Produce. During the fall seasons, he took part in hand-painting pumpkins for the produce markets.

Bruce truly enjoyed how the fresh, home cooked, Italian meals brought everyone together in the Boggio family. As Bruce slowly watched his parents pass and while his daughter, nieces and nephews grew, he realized how important it is to preserve memories.

While attending Putnam County High School, Bruce bought a 1973 Chevelle SS that was dark gold metallic and he had custom black rally stripes added. This made him the talk of the town.

Upon graduating in 1976 he went on to Illinois Valley Community College while he farmed. One

year later in October, he was in a farming accident in the field. Bruce was 19 years old when he became paralyzed from the waist down for the rest of his life.

Bruce experienced anger, pain and shock.

Eventually he found the strength and acceptance to cope with no use of his legs. Since the harsh, snowy winters made it difficult for him to get around, he decided to move to the warm West Coast. He ended up in Yuma, Ariz., where he met a lady named Kathy who owned The Rainbow Center, a place for disabled children. Bruce was intrigued and spent all of his time with the children observing their behaviors and volunteering at The Center.

Quickly, Bruce realized his disability did not have to slow him down. This motivated him to show the children how to keep trying.

Up to Bruce’s death, he and Kathy still remained friends. Bruce’s passion continued to grow for improved education, teaching children how to be resourceful, and finding solutions to everyday life. Bruce went on to open and operate Children’s Learning Center

in Oceanside, Calif. Over 20 years later, Children’s Learning Center remains in business. It still has the same mission Bruce started which is to encourage and help children develop according to their capacity.

Morning commute My grandfather was a farmer. By today’s standards, he was a very small farmer — only 100 acres or so and the typical livestock which many farmers owned years ago — cattle, hogs, ponies, sheep, chickens. We also had a berry patch, an orchard, a huge garden, etc., and all the out buildings farmers needed — a corn crib, barn complete with a haymow, a granary, a windmill/pump and structures for the animals to get out of the weather.

It was a family farm, and every member of the family helped to work it. Each one of us had farm chores to do every Terri day of our lives. While we often didn’t Simon like to do those chores, we didn’t question it either. It was just a part of being a farm family, and quite frankly, we didn’t know there were families who didn’t have a daily agenda of chores to do. Likewise, as kids, we would have never ever dreamed of asking to be paid for chores; even at that young age, we knew our chores around the farm were just an element of being part of the family unit. They were good lessons.

As an adult, I reflect on that farm with cherished memories. I learned so much — not just about farm life and animals but also about values, morals, hard work, people and love. There were plenty of opportunities to learn, and my family had an uncanny ability to turn everyday life into a lesson. I am forever grateful.

And so it was the other day when I found myself behind a farmer driving a large piece of machinery (I’m ashamed to say I don’t even know what that piece of machinery was) down the road.

He was going fairly slow. No. He was going really slow, and the clock in my vehicle was telling me I was probably going to be late to work ... again.

I wanted to pass this mammoth piece of equipment, but the hills between Sheffield and Wyanet were relentless. Somewhat annoyed, I resigned myself to being late, settled back in the seat and inched along Routes 6/34 like the farmer before me was.

They say most everything happens for a reason, and that morning jaunt with the farmer before me was no exception. Before long, I found myself thinking about many memories of long ago — days from yesteryear when I spent every day attached to a farm and the operations that ensued there. They were days filled with long hours, sweaty moments, good times and not-sogreat times, which brought lessons of life and death, marvels and normalcy, laughter and tears.

While money was always tight and our budget was inevitably lean, it was a good life, a wholesome one, and to this day, I’m proud to have been one of those farm kids.

I found myself studying the farmer in the cab of this machinery trudging slowly along the pavement, and I couldn’t help but think of my grandfather. I remember him most in the barnyard, the fields, the corncrib, wearing a straw-brimmed hat, a pair of overalls with a couple of frayed holes in the knees, calloused hands and dirt under his nails. He was truly a man of the earth — simple, proud, unassuming — traits I usually assign to all farmers; whether it’s true or not, I don’t know.

Grandpa loved the land, and as I’ve grown older, it’s one of the things I respect most about him.

Finally ... the turn signal was activated, and while there was no hope for me to get to work on time, I was a bit sad to see my morning farmer leave my path. Late or not, I needed that farmer on that day. While he didn’t realize it, he made me slow down and remember a place in time when life was different, simple and not so hurried.

It’s harvest time in Putnam County. Be safe and watch out for our local farmers. Better yet ... appreciate them, give ‘em a wave, and if you have the opportunity to get behind them on your way to work, don’t get in such a hurry. It all happens for a reason.

The power of friendship Sometimes having a best friend who truly knows who you are and where you came from is one of the best treasures in life.

While sometimes it’s easy to take these types of friendships for granted, it’s important to cherish and recognize them as you grow older and your friendship continues to progress and become something so meaningful.

My best friend and I met when we were sixth-graders. From what I remember, we bonded over having to take the awful required gym class that year. As if junior high wasn’t awkward enough, we were forced to dress in a locker room for class and participate in made-up games we could have cared less for.

The bittersweet experience, however, is one I would never take back. It was the first step in a friendship that would continue to grow even until this day.

I’m coming to a realization of how important this certain friendship is in my life.

Looking back, my best friend and I have made it through so much more than just that killer gym class.

We continued to stay friends though middle school as we defeated the tough homework assignments, the overly-enthusiastic teachers and usual awkward experiences every junior high kid must go through.

When we made it to high

Goldie Currie COMMENTARY school, we continued life adventures together. We again faced “the worst homework assignments ever;” we always discussed who got cute and who didn’t over summer vacation; we made appearances together at school dances; and we spent long hours discussing what we want to do when we “grew up” and where we would attend college after graduation.

When you are a senior in high school you go through a phase where going to college seems like it’s going to be the biggest deal ever, and you most likely will never communicate with people from high school again.

While we both had the uneasy feeling that our friendship might pull away after college, we were determined to do whatever it took to make it last.

Of course, we were ignorant to even think that way. When we got to college, we actually grew closer than ever.

Although we attended colleges at opposite ends of the state, we continued to call each other and even started communicating on the new social website at the time called Facebook. We bonded over how tough exams were, how crazy a professor’s lecture

could get and talked about our first encounters with college parties, of course.

When we made it through our college careers, our bond grew even closer as we prepped to dip our toes into the real world.

We weren’t sure what we were getting into at the time, but together we focused together on resumes and job interviews until we both landed our first “big girl” jobs. I can’t say it was the jobs we both were hoping for right out of college, but at that time in our lives, it was great to just be out of the college life routine and having the option to “dress up” for work everyday sounded awesome.

Now that we are about three years into what you might call “adult life,” we continue to defeat the usual life challenges.

Today our challenges revolve around not having any money, the regular, naggy hardships of living on our own, and the awful task of having to take our vehicles into the shop for regular oil changes. This most likely could be our least favorite thing to do in life right now.

But as days march on and new life hurdles come into sight, I can say for certain it is so fantastic to have my best friend by my side reminding me that the life challenges are totally normal, and that no matter what, we are on the right track of where we’re supposed to be.

Bailey’s Bits The ride Life is like a car ride, always facing forward, but occasionally looking back, back to our past.

But what if we didn’t look back?

To those cherished memories or darkest hours.

Would we be rid of them, or simply not remember?

To not have them would mean to forget.

To forget would mean to not learn.

We would do the same things over again, in a cycle that would only end in death.

But what if we were to only look back?

To live in the past, remember all the details, sometimes creating our own.

Grow dark from the bad, ignoring the good.

Never forgiving.

Never forgetting.

Losing the future, for the history.

Your life filling with misery, in a cycle that will only end in death.

Maybe if we look side to side, at what is passing us by right now, glance behind to see what was, and peek to the road ahead, only then can we really see what we have.

This is a cycle that will only end in death, but this cycle will be worth it.

Your road, Your choice.

But I choose to take it all in.

Because isn’t it all about the ride anyway?

Tina Moews, owner of the Moews Seed Co., stands behind the 70-year-old Moews Seed bag No. 14 that came back to the seed house where it was bagged in 1943.

A Moews seed bag comes home Owner receives bag from Dillavou

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — Ronn Dillavou, a Moews Seed company district manager from Aledo, has had a bag of Moews Seed Corn No. 2M14 since the 1980s.

Dillavou said, “I was given the seed bag that was bagged at the Moews Seed Co. building in Granville 70 years ago

in 1943, by a neighbor who had kept it in his kitchen since buying it in 1943. I have had it for the last 25 years. I decided the bag of seed should come home to the Moews Seed Co.” Moews Seed founder Ben Moews developed the seed in 1927 after graduating and coming home from the University of Illinois.

Moews planted the seed he developed in his mother’s vegetable garden and dried the seed in his mother’s cook stove.

But that was many years ago.

At the recent seed plot evening at the seed company, Dillavou presented the bag to Tina Moews, current owner of the company. She was happy to receive the bag and also happy the bag came full circle and is back where it started. She is very proud of her father’s accomplishments.

“He started farming with horses, and his first two bags of seed that he developed (were) the 2M14 seed. He kept one and gave the other bag

to the University of Illinois. This No. 14 seed of a dark red kernel was used by just about all the seed companies in the breeding of their own seed numbers. This year, the plant is 86 years old, and the northeast two rooms of the present building are the original rooms and walls where he worked. My Dad was born in 1901. He would be 112 years old now.”

She is considering giving the bag of seed to the Putnam County Agriculture Museum to put in their seed corn room.

Mautino recognized by the ABDI SPRINGFIELD — State Rep. Frank Mautino from Spring Valley was presented with the prestigious Richard A. Mautino Industry Service Award, the highest honor in the Illinois beer distribution industry. The presentation was made on Sept. 17 at the Associated Beer Distributors of Illinois (ABDI) 75th annual convention held at the President Abraham Lincoln Doubletree Hotel in Springfield, which was attended by more than 120 industry professionals.

Mautino accepted an invitation to speak at the convention, unaware he would receive the award named after his father, who was vice president of Mautino

Distributing Co. in Spring Valley and served nine terms in the Illinois General Assembly. The award is given for outstanding contributions to the beer distribution industry.

“Like his father, he is a strong champion of the beer distribution business – his family has been in the business for over 100 years,” said Bill Olson, ABDI President.

“I’ve known Representative Mautino since he was appointed to replace his father in 1991 and has risen to the position of Deputy Majority Leader.

For the beer distribution industry, he is the go-to guy for our issues, which is

why he sponsored SB 754 in 2011 and HB 2606 this year. Both bills, which Gov. Quinn signed, strengthened the state’s three-tier regulatory system,” continued Olson.

Mautino was at the convention thinking he was going to provide an update on legislative issues. In accepting the award, Mautino said he was “very surprised” and had “stayed up late last night finishing my presentation.”

Nominations are submitted by ABDI distributor members. The only qualification is that the nominee be an outstanding contributor to the beer distribution industry in Illinois.

Need a good friend? Adopt one!

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

MCNABB – The month of October has been designated Adopt-a-ShelterDog Month. The Shelter Pet Project was launched in 2009 and is a public awareness campaign to show shelter dogs are still a viable option for families looking to add a pet into their lives.

Dr. Alison Spayer, owner of McNabb Veterinary and a Putnam County Animal Control officer, noted there are many benefits to adopting animals.

“When you adopt from a shelter, you get an animal that has been vet-checked, spayed or neutered, current on vaccinations, free of intestinal parasites and microchipped,” Spayer said. “The adoption fee helps with costs associated with running the shelter. In my experience, I have found that shelter pets bond quickly with their new families and

become loyal companions.

“If you can not adopt a pet, you can still help shelter animals,” she continued. “Most shelters are in desperate need of volunteers. Volunteers can socialize with animals, help with general chores such as cleaning and laundry or participate at events. This is a good way to get the entire family involved with the community and set a good example for your children.”

Dogs thrive in loving environments, and shelter dogs are no different. Physicians have noted families who add a pet to their home often enjoy surprising benefits in health and family growth. Dogs need exercise, so walking a new dog offers exercise opportunities. Dog walkers have also made new acquaintances when walking their dogs by other dog walkers or individuals who stop to admire a new dog.

Children learn responsibility when a new dog is

added to the family. The same dog can offer a child a source of comfort from things as simple as a storm or more complicated when a child needs an unconditional friend.

An elderly relative who lives at home can have their life enhanced by the addition of a shelter dog according to the American Humane Society.

The elderly who live at home have enjoyed the company of a new animal companion. The animal can also be of help when trained properly for that individual.

Another fast growing area for shelter dogs is in animal assisted therapy. Dogs (and cats) have been trained and taken to retirement homes to work with elderly and the infirm residents.

Shelter dogs have also been trained to assist those with diminished or impaired vision according to the American Society for the Blind.

Panthers win over Holy Trinity 1-0

By Ken Schroeder kschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — The Putnam County Panthers picked up a 1-0 win in a pitchers’ duel against Holy Trinity on Oct. 5 in their last regular season game and their only game at home.

Danny Pavlovich picked up the win, pitching five innings and giving up only two hits while fanning eight and giving up three walks.

Austin Biagini moved onto the mound for the last two innings and tallied four strikeouts. Holy Trinity’s pitchers coughed up one run off of four hits for the Panthers, while striking out five.

The lone score in the game, an unearned run, came

in the Panthers’ fourth inning. Biagini rapped a single into centerfield to start the process.

Antonio DiazDeleon reached first on an error, sending Biagini to second.

Jeff Baker reached first when the Trinity first baseman was out of position, advancing the runners and loading the bases.

Matt Donelson would bring Biagini in by earning a walk from the Holy Trinity pitcher.

“I thought we played well. We didn’t hit the ball a lot today,” said Joey Ohnesorg, Putnam County head baseball coach and athletic director. “Danny was in the zone early and he pitched us out of a few jams.

He did a really good job, then Austin came in and shut the door.”

Lady Panthers varsity golf ends the season with a win

By Dixie Schroeder dschroeder@putnamcountyrecord.com

LACON — The Putnam County Lady Panthers ended the season on a high note with a win on Oct. 4 at the Lacon Country Club golf course. The team played the Midland Lady Timberwolves and the DePue Lady Little Giants, winning 197250 over DePue. Midland did not have enough golfers for a team score.

Medalist for the meet was the Panthers’ Stephanie Wilson, who shot a 44 for the meet. Following Wilson were PC’s Carly Gonet with a 48, Tara Doyle with a 50 and Lauren Bauer with a 55.

The Lady Little Giants were led by Mercedes Ruiz who shot a 47. Dakota Mitchell shot a 65, Andrea Cruz shot a 66 and

Marisha Garcia a 72.

The Lady Timberwolves were led by Michelle Adolphson with a 53, Sammi Bessler shot a 65 and Andrea Glosta a 69.

Putnam County head coach Eric Ciucci was pleased about the regular season win and especially proud of his senior players.

“We completed our regular season tonight with a solid 197 score,” said Ciucci. “For our seniors who started this golf program four years ago, it was a fitting way to end the regular season at Lacon where they played their first meet as freshmen.

We couldn’t be more proud of our senior class and it will be difficult to replace their leadership.”

The Lady Panthers are now 15-2 for the season. The team plays host at its own regional on Oct. 9.

Conference From Page 9 lowed by 13th place Nate Ward who shot a 100. He was followed by 16th place Michael Weide, who shot a 103.

PC’s Christian Charbonneau tied for 18th place with Woodland’s Shelby Keen, shooting a 104. The Panthers’ Jon Mattern and Joe Cyr came in tied for sixth place on the team with a final score of 111 on the day. Mattern and Cyr placed in a three way tie for 25th place with LowPointWashburn’s Andy Jay. Medalist for the meet was Peoria Christian’s Phil Fox who came in first with a score of 80. Henry’s Jake Kennedy was second with a score of 81 and Midland’s Jeff Beaver was third overall with a score of 90.

Gateway Services asks for donations for new CILA home

IVCC receives $200,000 from state OGLESBY — Illinois Valley Community College has received $200,000 in state funding it will use for enhancement within the soon-toopen Peter Miller Community Technology Center.

The special appropriation, made possible by State Rep. Frank Mautino (D-Spring Valley), pushes the Community Technology Center capital campaign over the $2 million mark, said President Jerry Corcoran.

“As I look around this campus, I am amazed at the impact our local legislators have had on its development, particularly Frank and former state Sen. Gary Dahl. Both gentlemen have played key roles in championing new programs, enhancing our facilities, inspiring adult education students to obtain their GEDs and providing the necessary funds to support our veterans,” said Corcoran.

“In the same way community colleges were developed to respond to the needs of the communities they serve, Frank and Gary have done a

phenomenal job over the years of making sure that IVCC’s needs have been prioritized at the state Rep. Frank Mautino level.

“This special appropriation through the Illinois Community College Board to be used in support of the CTC campaign, is the absolute best news one could ever imagine as we approach the Nov. 1 grand opening,” Corcoran said.

“Our goal of raising $2.1 million is now well within reach, thanks to this funding made possible by one of our most distinguished alumni, Rep. Frank Mautino.”

In 2009, Mautino and Dahl were instrumental in helping the college acquire the $22.8 million capital development appropriation that financed 75 percent of the $30.5 million project.

Corcoran also credited state Sen. Sue Rezin (R-Morris) for playing a crucial role in securing the $200,000 appropriation.

PRINCETON — Late fall construction on a new group home will be completed on North Main Street for eight Gateway Services individuals.

The duplex that is being built by Jonathan and Juli Mabry will allow individuals to be more independent, still having 24-hour direct care staff on hand, but with less one-on-one assistance and more guidance for daily life activities, said Jene Kinsley, Gateway Services’ director of residential services.

Gateway is seeking donations to purchase furniture, or other housewares (dishes, decorations, etc.) to turn this house into a home for these individuals. Gateway hopes to transform their new home into a place that they look forward to living in and entertaining family and friends. These items are designed to be more durable and utilized on a long-term basis for facilities like Gateway.

To donate, call Jene Kinsley, director of residential services, at

815-875-4548, ext. 253, donate online at www.gateway-services. org, or by mail to: Gateway Services, 406 S. Gosse Blvd, P.O. Box 535, Princeton, IL 61356.
