Ready, set, hop! Toad, frog races continue festival’s tradition Hooppole Fun Day held in town of 180 people south of Prophetstown

By EARLEEN HINTON ehinton@shawmedia.com HOOPPOLE – Silas Newman almost didn’t have a toad in the race at the annual Hooppole Fun Day on June 28, but with a bit of luck and a large slice of heritage in the 12-year-old’s corner, “Bill” showed up just in time.

“We couldn’t find a toad,” said Silas’ dad Isaac. “Then I was out spraying for bugs this morning and suddenly there he was.”

“He” was a large American toad that the Newmans scooped up and transported to downtown Hooppole, population 180, for the coveted “Toad Race” – an event that has roots back to the first Hooppole Fun Day almost 50 years ago.

Dubbed “Bill” by Silas, the toad was one of three competing in the Big Toad

“Silas’ grandpa ran it 50 years ago,” Isaac said. “So I guess he is kind of a ringer.”

Isaac recalled one critter race in which a turtle grabbed a frog and ran across the finish line first.

“The kid who entered the frog won because the frog crossed the finish line first even though it was in the turtle’s mouth,” Isaac said. “My dad said the kid with the turtle was upset.”

Now only frogs and toads compete.

Silas and two other kids, Georgia Walls and Jackson Perry, lined their toads up at the start line in the Big Toad race and with a signal from Isaac, the race, or rather the hop, was on.

Different modes of encouragement were employed to get the amphibians to hop their way to victory. Some tried Earleen Hinton blowing on their toads while others Georgia Walls, 9, and Nolan Sprecht, 6, of Hooppole start their frogs June 28 in the Hooppole crouched behind and slapped the Fun Day’s Frog Race. ground behind the toads trying to encourage them to move.

OBITUARIES DR. VALARIE RODGERS Died: June 14, 2025 in Morrison, IL Dr. Valarie Rodgers, age 74, died Saturday, June 14th at her farm home outside Morrison, Illinois.

Born in Baltimore, she was the youngest of three daughters born to James and Rose Rodgers. She is survived by one sister, Virginia, and by her son and husband, James and Robert Alt, and by her beloved menagerie of horses and cats. Funeral services take place at 2 pm on Thursday, June 26, at Lemke Funeral Homes – South Chapel. A visitation occurs 2 hours prior from 12 pm until

the service hour at the Funeral Home. Lemke Funeral Homes is honored to serve the family of Valarie Rodgers during this difficult time.

Growing up in the 60s in Arlington Heights, Illinois she exemplified some of the stereotypes of her generation, a combination of reverence for her parent’s “greatest generation” and the rebelliousness of a “boomer”. She led a high school walkout to protest faculty interference in student voting, danced at The Cellar to the beat of her generation, modeled and entered beauty contests, and yet won the school’s science award while actively pursuing her passion for sculpting, painting, and pottery.

Throughout her youth and throughout her life, she also, and perhaps mostly, worked with and loved horses.

Valarie attended the U of Iowa as an art major, working multiple jobs for school and

to board her mare nearby. Deciding that she better make more money than the average hippie, she aced the required science classes to be accepted as one of the seven women in the ninety-six members of the dental school class of 1978.

Married to her classmate Robert in 1977, they both served as officers in the US Navy Dental Corps until 1981. She then taught senior dental students at the U of Illinois Dental School, wrote a text on Removable Prosthodontics, and supported her husband during his oral surgery residency.

Valarie moved to Morrison in 1984, taught at the U of Iowa Dental College, and practiced dentistry in Clinton. Later, she and Robert opened and operated the Clinton Dental Surgery Center. During these years, her equine interests peaked and she competed nationally

in the Olympic sport of Eventing, having great success and being “long listed” for the US Team and awarded as the Intermediate Level Eventing Champion of Illinois.

Giving birth to James in 1991 changed her focus, but she still continued an active equestrian life. To give back to the sport, she built and hosted the Hidden Hollow Horse Trials at her farm outside Fulton, founded the Atalanta Foundation to support local civic and charitable activity, still practiced a little dentistry, and got into farm life and the ag industry.

She thought up, planned and started far more projects than life allowed her to complete.

Valarie will be missed, and remembered.

Fond memories and condolences for Valarie’s family may be shared at www.lemkefuneralhomes.com, obituary page.

Twenty minutes later, participants will have a fresh baked loaf of bread to take home and enjoy.

“We tried this for the first time at our 25th anniversary celebration in June and it seemed to be a hit,” said Pam VanZuiden, a windmill volunteer. “We learned about this idea on a cultural exchange to Yates Mill in North Carolina and wanted to give it a try.”

Participants can buy the flour at the mill or the cultural center.

“We do the mixing and baking at the Windmill Cultural Center,” VanZuiden said.

Gross sales of the Patent Novelty Company passed the million dollar mark for the first time in the company’s history during 1964.

The future of flood control projects for Fulton and other communities along the Mississippi River will be determined by the effort expended by local interests to obtain flood protection.

This was the major impression gained

by Fulton Waterworks Superintendent James Shipma from a flood conference called by the Mississippi Valley Association at Burlington.

Members of the Shive Hattery Inc. consultant group met with a group of about 20 in the City Council chambers.

Landscape architect Sandy Dolan, architect Bruce Handing and David Tallman presented the phased plans of development. The plan includes the area around the windmill site on First Street. First phase of the project would be to close First Street from 10th to 11th avenues to allow for the exposing of the brick pavers now covered by asphalt.

Phase 2 will add retail shops to the area, continuing the same styles as the tax house. Final phase of the project is the most ambitious and may be the most difficult to fund. A community center would be created from the Drives office building.

Because of slight delays, completion date moved to May 2026

By BRANDON CLARK bclark@shawmedia.com MORRISON – Work on a $14 million two-story addition to Morrison Community Hospital continues despite slight delays.

The project was expected to finish in January 2026, but Morrison Community Hospital CEO Pam Pfister said this week that utility work delays have pushed the completion date to May 2026. Despite those delays, she said work is moving ahead.

“They are busy working on the retaining wall and that means they have got quite a bit of the pier work done,” Pfister said. “The elevator shaft is now concluded and they’re finalizing the southwest stairwell. Once they get that retaining wall done, they’ll begin to infill, and we are scheduled for steel delivery on July 14.”

Pfister said. “And then the first story, which will fall in line with our current rural health clinic, that space is being completed as we speak.”

The second-floor addition will connect to the hospital’s medical-surgical unit and remain “an open canvas” for future expansions.

“We’re having internal discussions on what the best use for that space would be,” Pfister said. “It’s highly probable that it could be used for outpatient services.”

Pfister said the construction has not disrupted the hospital’s operations.

“We’ve been very fortunate that because it’s all new construction, it doesn’t hinder any of the current operations,” Pfister said. “We kind of navigated a little bit of parking early on in Alex T. Paschal the project, but that has now settled in.”

SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK contact@shawmedia.com SPRINGFIELD – The Illinois Department of Natural Resources and the Office of the Illinois State Fire Marshal are reminding organizations and individuals sponsoring fireworks displays to keep safety at the top of mind and be sure their vendors have the required state licenses and certificates before their fireworks shows.

The Illinois Explosives Act requires that anyone who purchases, possesses, uses, transfers, stores or disposes of explosives, including display fireworks, must have an explosives license and explosives storage certificate issued by the IDNR. Licensing and storage requirements administered by the IDNR do not apply to consumer fireworks (classified as 1.4 explosives).

Approved consumer fireworks are regulated by the OSFM and are permitted only in villages, counties and municipalities that have passed ordinances allowing such displays.

Consumer fireworks may be purchased and displayed only by adults who have obtained permits from their local jurisdiction. Handheld fireworks, including firecrackers, roman candles and bottle rockets, are not approved for sale or use in Illinois.

The Illinois Explosives Act is administered by the IDNR Office of Mines and Minerals, Explosives and

Aggregate Division. The division is staffed by trained and experienced blasting specialists located throughout Illinois.

In addition to requiring comprehensive licensing, training and examination for individuals, the law requires that unattended display fireworks and explosives must be stored in an explosives magazine, storage facility or container that is inspected and certified by the IDNR. IDNR has 2,135 individuals licensed for the use of explosives in Illinois, of which 694 are specifically for the use of display fireworks.

There are 723 certified explosives storage magazines in Illinois, which contain nearly 40 million pounds of

explosives. Of those storage magazines, 94 are certified specifically for the storage of display fireworks.

Anyone possessing, using, transferring or purchasing display fireworks without a valid IDNR individual explosives license or storage certificate is violating Illinois law and could incur penalties.

A violation of the Illinois Explosives Act can be a Class 3 felony with a maximum penalty of five years in prison and a $10,000 fine. In addition, IDNR can assess administrative fines for violations involving display fireworks and other explosives.

Fireworks can cause injuries and property damage

According to the National Fire Protection Association, fireworks started an estimated 31,302 fires in 2022, including 3,504 structure fires, 887 vehicle fires and 26,492 outside fires. These fires caused six deaths and 44 injuries and an estimated $109 million in direct property damage. These fires are not only caused by commercial/consumer fireworks but also by unregulated novelty fireworks that are sometimes bought at local supermarkets.

In addition to fireworks, novelties such as sparklers, snappers and poppers are dangerous. Sparklers account for the greatest number of fireworks injuries and often to the youngest victims.

“Thank you for helping us keep the Refuge a great place for people and wildlife,” Albrecht said.

SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK contact@shawmedia.com If you are heading to the Mississippi River for a boating or camping trip, don’t plan on celebrating with fireworks.

Fireworks are not allowed on the Upper Mississippi River National Wildlife and Fish Refuge because of their disturbance to wildlife and the litter they leave behind.

“As we enjoy the bright colors and thunderous explosions, it’s easy to overlook the impact to wildlife around us.

The abrupt lights and sounds are often seen as a threat by nesting bald eagles and easily startle great blue herons and other colonial nesting birds,” said Jacquelynn Albrecht, a Refuge ranger for the Savanna District.

The shock of fireworks can cause wildlife to flee, with wildlife ending up in unexpected areas or roadways, flying into buildings and other obstacles and even abandoning nests, leaving young vulnerable to predators, Albrecht said.

During the July 2024 seasonal reporting period, 45 hospitals and facilities reported a total of 156 injuries.

There was one fatality reported during the 2024 reporting period.

Health care facilities reported 98 people were injured by fireworks during the 2024 seasonal reporting period. About 50% of those injured suffered multiple injuries.

The reported injuries were related to a variety of fireworks with “mortars” (36%) listed as the most frequent

type of fireworks or pyrotechnic effect involved in injury. This was followed by roman candles (12%), bottle rockets (8%) and sparklers (8%). The type of injuries reported were associated with other effects, including salutes (7%), smoke bombs (6%) and firecrackers (6%).

The sale and use of roman candles, firecrackers and salute devices are prohibited in Illinois. More than half of all injuries affected hands (29%), head/ face (14%) and legs (13%). Second-degree burns were the leading type of injury at 23%, followed by first-degree burns (18%). Lacerations accounted for 17% of the injuries and abrasions at 15%. Loss of sight increased to

11% from 6% in 2023.

• HOSPITAL EXPANSION Continued from page 7

That volume has more than doubled since 2019 because of multiple expansions. The first major project in 2022 added an emergency room, more beds, operating rooms and upgrades to radiology, lab and clinic areas, all of which enabled the hospital to accommodate more patients. An expansion in 2023 added a third operating room, further increasing capacity.

“Space is premium right now and we’ve pretty much exhausted all space available to us on the premises,” Pfister said. “When the project’s done, the primary care and the walk-in clinic will move out to that new, expanded area and the specialty services will stay in the current footprint, which happens to be about 12,000 square feet.”

The hospital’s addition also is expected to bring about 10 full-time positions, including the addition of Dr. Trever Troutman, a Morrison native.

“We have already filled two of those positions,” Pfister said. “Those are nursing positions working with our primary care team. [Troutman] will be joining our team on Sept. 2. Dr. Woods’ retirement date has been identified as

Alex T. Paschal

Work continues June 25 on a $14 million expansion at Morrison Community Hospital. Slight delays have pushed the completion date to May 2026.

Sept. 25, so that’ll be perfect timing for bringing Dr. Troutman on board.”

Pfister said Woods’ patients have been notified of his retirement and their

primary care options. She is confident Troutman can take on “a significant portion of that patient population.”

Looking ahead, Pfister said the hospi-

tal plans to grow its primary care services to better support long-term health, especially for the aging population as about 20% to 25% of neighboring Carroll County residents are older than 65 and often face chronic health conditions.

“We’re excited about this addition and being able to provide the services that we have here to our community and the surrounding area,” Pfister said.

Morrison Community Hospital derives its revenue from its services, Medicare and Medicaid reimbursements, third-party payers, the self-insured and the hospital taxing district, which includes townships in and around Morrison, as well as the nearby communities of Lyndon and Fenton.

The hospital, 303 N. Jackson St., provides emergency services; radiology, pharmacy and lab services; medical and surgical inpatient services; rural health clinics for primary and urgent care; specialty physician services in rheumatology, psychiatry, podiatry, endocrinology, otolaryngology, gastroenterology, cardiology, gynecology, pulmonology, urology, dermatology and neurology; inpatient and outpatient rehabilitation; a diabetes program; a skin care clinic; and a wound care program.

SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK contact@shawmedia.com WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Eric Sorensen, D-Moline, announced more than $1 million in U.S. Department of Agriculture Rural Development grants have been awarded to local farmers through the Rural Energy for America Program. The investments will help farmers across the 17th District reduce energy costs, improve efficiency and continue feeding America with more sustainable operations,” Sorenson said in a June 23 news release.

“From grain dryers to solar arrays, these investments are making a real difference for the farmers who power our local economies,” Sorensen said. “I’m proud to help bring these dollars home to support family farms and rural businesses. When we invest in our farmers, we’re investing in the long-term strength and sustainability of our entire region.”

“The REAP program can really help farmers update old, inefficient grain drying systems by using new technology and more efficient grain dryers,” said Dorothea Hopkins, a grant recipient. “This

helps increase productivity in the field and creates a more uniform grain sample when delivering grain.”

The awards are part of a broader federal effort to promote energy efficiency and renewable energy systems in rural communities, Sorenson said.

“In total, these projects are expected to save farmers over $170,000 annually in energy costs and replace more than 2.2 million kilowatt hours – enough energy to power over 220 homes each year,” according to the release.

Sorensen said he continues to advocate for “smart, targeted investments in rural infrastructure and agriculture that create jobs, lower costs and build a more sustainable future for Illinois farmers.”

Local grant recipients are Agri-King Inc., Fulton, $250,000; Dennis Schriner, Lanark, $334,602; Eric Smith, Fulton, $38,443; and Jeffrey Wiebenga, Fenton, $38,027. Other area recipients are BeoLetto Farms II Corp., Canton, (Fulton County), $38,472; Dorthea Hopkins, Gilson (Knox County), $194,500; Wild Rose Shaw Local News Network file photo Farm Inc., Gilson, (Knox County), $109,416; and William Vohland, Canton, Congressman Eric Sorensen (right) talked with Denny Van Daele when he joined Rock Island County farmers and Illinois Farm Bureau leaders at a family farm in Taylor Ridge on Oct. 14, 2024.

Gracie Martin, 8, of Prophetstown decides which treat to select after winning during the Hooppole Fun Day’s Cake Walk on June 28 in Hooppole.

• FUN DAY

Continued from page 3 “He went back a little, but I got him to go forward again,” Silas said, recounting the race.

Silas planned on releasing Bill back to his natural habitat after the racing day concluded.

Toad and frog races were just one of the events held during the Hooppole Fun Day, a family-centric day that started in 1976.

Saturday’s events included races and tractor pulls for kids, a cake walk, a Little Miss and Mister Contest, parade, a Rolle Bolle and Bags Tournament, fireworks and mud volleyball.

Organizers offered this insight into the Fun Day’s history.

“A day that was set aside to celebrate

July 4 in our small community grew with each coming year. Some things have changed. Others remain the same.

Fun Day has always been a day of downhome, old-fashioned, give-it-all-you-got Photos by Earleen Hinton fun.

People take part in the Hooppole Fun Day’s Cake Walk on June 28 in Hooppole.

“The idea actually started when a few Hooppole families traveled to Revillo, South Dakota, to visit the John and Izzy Oleson residence and to participate in a water fight, something all the firemen were doing at the time and some still do. While the distant travelers were there, they participated in a day filled with cake walks, paper plate toss, horseshoes and several things we partake in today. If a small town like Revillo could have such a great turnout, we figured we should try it in Hooppole.

Which is exactly what they did.”

Hooppole Fun Day is held on the Saturday before July 4.
