All in the toss for rock throwing contest

BY EARLEEN HINTON

ehinton@shawmedia.com The Rock River became a bit rockier on July 4 thanks to a relatively new competition held in Prophetstown.

Contestants lined up Sunday in the 2021 Farmer’s Rock Throwing Classic to see how many times they could skip a rock across the surface of the Rock River.

“We’ve held it for 3 years,” said organizer and head “skipper” Dan Howard.

“Farmer was my dad’s nickname and he taught me how to skip rocks.”

Kids and adults, complete with their own nicknames, walked on to the outcropping near the boat docks at Prophetstown State Park and tried skipping their rocks, some provided by Howard in a bucket and some of their own choosing.

Some stones made it one or two times on the surface while others took an early dive.

That was until the adult men’s division began and Joe Mauck, 26, of Spring Valley, stood ready for his 5 attempts.

Mauck had a 16-skip effort to beat when he stretched into a wide tossing-stance and on his second attempt recorded a 17-skip feat, good enough for the winning toss.

“Nathan had 16 just before me, so I knew it was on,” he said smiling. “You have to stay low and the trajectory out of your hand is the key.”

Mauck is no stranger to the Rock River or Prophetstown with several relatives residing in the town. “My mom grew up here,” he said.

Hauck, donning a festive July 4th shirt, was having fun with the event as were all the onlookers, contestants and host.

“This is one of my connections with the river. I visualized my throw and I saw it skipping across the river as a I threw it,” Mauck said, striking an ESPN-like post game interview tone. “And when it hit 17 and I knew I had it.”

“It” was an official Farmer’s Rock

Throwing Classic hat which Howard ceremoniously placed on Hauck’s head.

But Hauck is a long way from the P-Town Classic record - 29.

“Our record is 29, but the world record is 88. Kurt ‘Mountain Man’ Steiner holds that record,” Howard said noting that lakes are more suitable for skipping records

than rivers.

After the competition, some of the gang of throwers continued the fun by tossing in handfuls of rocks into the river all at once and creating a “machine-gun” spray effect.

“We’re trying to raise the level of the river,” said Howard. “I could do this all day.”

Food allergies are less common than usually thought

BY STEPHEN D. HARRISON, M.D.

Almost everyone has eaten something that has disagreed with them and then declared themselves allergic to that substance. True food allergies, however, are much less common than usually thought.

In adults, food allergies are rare.

Infants may have some type of adverse reaction to cow’s milk during the first year of life. This tolerance, which is often not a true food allergy, can consist of a rash, loose stools, colic, and respiratory symptoms. For some reason most of the infant’s food allergies disappear as an individual grows older.

Food allergies usually manifest themselves like other allergies with rash, hives, or respiratory symptoms, such as wheezing, cough, or difficulty breathing. Common foods that tend to cause allergies include milk, shellfish, nuts, wheat, eggs, chocolate, fish, tomatoes, strawberries and citrus fruits. In some cases it may be the chemicals, such as preservatives added to the foods, which are the true allergen. Stomachaches are much less common than hives, skin rashes,

or even respiratory difficulties. Some people with eczema have their condition aggravated by a food allergy.

Some food allergies can be life-threatening. When the symptoms are limited to stomachache, this suggests more of a food intolerance than a true allergy. If abdominal symptoms are the only symptom, other conditions such as irritable bowel syndrome may be the culprit.

To discover a true food allergy, the physician will begin the examination with a thorough history. The next step involves diet trials in which the suspected foods are eliminated and then reinstated to the diet to see how the patient reacts. A true food allergy can often be detected by a skin test, though often the diagnosis is made before this time. With simple food intolerances the skin test is not helpful as opposed to the true food allergy.

Blood tests may help in some instances to determine allergies.

Desensitization for food allergies by shots is not an effective method of treatment. The only way to effectively control food allergies is to discover the cause and avoid the food.

CITY COUNCIL

Council approves water system improvements

BY SARAH FORD For Shaw Media

The Morrison City Council approved an engineering agreement with Willett, Hofmann & Associates for phase 2 of the water systems improvement project at their council meeting on June 28.

The project includes replacing 1,290 customer water meters, furnishing and installing 1,741 radio read units on customer water meters, installing a radio read base station, and setting up meter reading through a Regional Network Interface and Billing software system.

The project also includes the Wall Street and US Route 30 water main looping project if the easements can be obtained.

The customer water meter replacement cost estimate is $1,066,000, and the water main loop is $344,500, for a total project cost of $1,410,500. The project funding includes an IEPA principal forgiveness loan in the amount of $400,000 and an IEPA loan of $1,010,500.

The annual loan payment will be $39,155 for thirty years at 1.0% interest.

Bids for the project will be advertised in October 2021, with construction to start in April 2022. The water main will be completed by August 2022 and the water meters by October 2022.

The council also approved a $120,514.50 bid by Helm Civil for Ash and Jackson St. paving, which was below the engineers’ previous estimates. The construction contracts need to be approved by IDOT before the project can start.

The council also reviewed a proposal for a 16,200 sq. ft. public works building at a cost of $2,181,270. The building could house the city’s public works equipment, with a tentative location near the sewage treatment plant on the far south side of Morrison.

Despite a lively discussion, the council postponed any action on the proposal, suggesting further meetings with the engineering firm.

The council also approved a request

by Dixon resident Emily Hermes to be a Kona Vendor at the sports complex with a percentage of profits to be donated to the Parks & Recs Department, and extending a lease with GE for another year.

Pastor Luke continues his message series, “The Armor of God” with the second message in the series entitled “The Belt of Truth” with scripture drawn from Ephesians 6:14a. The Sanctuary Choir will be singing “Grace That You Have Shown.” Rich Criss will lead the worship set and will serve as organist. Coffee and fellowship follow worship in the Christ Center. All are welcome and invite your friends!

More information is readily available on the church’s website, www.emmanuelreformedchurch.org or by calling the church office at 815-772-3890.
