The Review June 2, 2015 GALT

Rock Falls man thinks auction house can fly

BY PAM EGGEMEIER

GALT – Another auction is planned at the former Sauk Valley Christian Academy building, but the circumstances are different this time.

After the school at 5505 Anne St. in Galt closed in December 2012, it was put up for sale, and its contents were auctioned off.

Starting Saturday, May 30th, auctions will be held at the building on a regular basis. Harvey Temple of Rock Falls is leasing space there for his new enterprise, Harvey’s Auction Service.

The auctions will be held every other Saturday in the parking lot area. They will begin at 11 a.m., but Temple said customers can come in to browse as early as 8 a.m. He also keeps regular hours – 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

The frequency of the auctions could change, depending on how many items he has on hand.

He brings some things in from other sales, but most of his items are dropped off by local residents. No money changes hands until an item is sold, and Temple gets 25 percent of the sale price. “I’m just saying every 2 weeks until I get a feel for how it’s going to go,�

Temple said. “There’s no auction house in Sterling or Rock Falls anymore, and with the closest one in Dixon, I’m hoping for the best.�

Temple, a Morrison native, was a cross-country trucker for 20 years. He lived in Fresno, California, for 15 years, before return-

ing to this area. He thought he had retired, but started working with other auctioneers at their sales, and started his own business in Clinton, Iowa. “I was trying to do it out of an old train depot there, and it just turned out to be a bad location,�

Temple said.

He closed up shop in Clinton after a couple of years, but Temple couldn’t shake the bug. “People would say, ‘Why are you doing this? You’re 76,’� Temple said. “I just love seeing what comes in, and it doesn’t feel like work.�

Temple takes in a variety of items, but has to weed out the junk. He’ll take bigticket items like cars and trucks, as well as electronics – that work. The smaller items run the gamut from jewelry and household items to sports and music memorabilia. He recently made a couple of substantial hauls from estate sales. “I take a lot of general merchandise, but no clothes or junk,� Temple said. “If it doesn’t sell after the second auction, I’ll call and give them a chance to come pick up what they brought in.�

One benefit of repurposing a school is ample shelf space for books. A large collection of Abraham Lincoln items is featured, as well as an 1881 Bible printed in Rockford.

Assorted newspapers and magazines call out to history buffs. The headline “President Kennedy Is Laid To Rest� draws attention to the front page of the Nov. 25, 1963, edition of the Clinton Herald. Another gem is a special section put together by the Minneapolis Star and Tribune as a tribute to Sen. Hubert H.

Harvey Temple (below) of Rock Falls is converting a portion of the old Sterling Christian Academy, 5505 Ann. St., Galt, into an auction house. The first auction was Saturday.

Humphrey at the time of his death Jan. 13, 1978.

The building is owned

by Keith and Melissa Ellefsen, and The IFH Group leases more than half of the 15,000-square-foot structure. Keith Ellefsen is president of the Rock Falls manufacturer.

The Whiteside County Board approved the rezoning of the site from residential to light industrial in May 2013. Ellefsen said the space couldn’t handle heavy equipment, but it was a perfect fit for the company’s purposes. “We have five people who work there for our fluid systems and dispensing business,� Ellefsen said. “It’s all light assembly work, and the gym is perfect for assembly, and the side classrooms work well for subassembly.�

Ellefsen said some space in the building is still available for lease. “It’s up for rent for storage and business incubators, but we’re not really marketing the rental areas,� he said. “The auction house just kind of happened.�

An eye exam is a good idea, especially if things are starting to look a little fuzzy around the edges.

ROCK FALLS | RIVER CHASE

Seeking bigger splashes Chamber would like to pair up growing events

BY PAM EGGEMEIER

ROCK FALLS – The Rock Falls River Chase made waves with its return last year, and the event’s promoter is trying to maximize its potential.

Terry Hicks, who lives near the river in Rock Falls, worked to bring back the stock outboard boat racing event to Seward Park after an 8-year hiatus. The River Chase had made an 18-year run in Rock Falls.

Surprisingly, Hicks isn’t a racer – his passion for the sport developed while growing up in Sterling.

“I remember riding my bike over there as a kid to watch the races, and I enjoyed it so much, I wanted to bring it back,” Hicks said.

The Illinois Marine Racing Club conducts the races that are sanctioned by the American Power Boat Association.

The sport is not for the faint of heart. The boats are small – about 125

pounds – and they hit speeds of up to 80 mph while the driver crouches, barely over the water with competitors only inches away.

Racers use two basic types of boats: runabouts and hydroplanes. They compete in several categories according to distinctions based on age, boat weight, and motor type. The race course on the Rock River will be about a half-mile.

Hicks said there is no prize money; the drivers compete for points in their chase for a championship.

“There’s no money – the points just add up to determine who wins a national crown at the end of the year,” Hicks said.

“New this year is that this will be a North American Championship event.”

This year’s event will be from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

June 27 and 28 at Seward Park. Admission is free; there will be food and activities for the kids.

Michael Krabbenhoeft

Kip Trump flies down a straightaway June 28, 2014, during the River Chase boat races on the Rock River in Rock Falls. The event returned last year, and the event’s promoter is trying to maximize its potential.

The sport hit its zenith in the 1970s, and after a lull is again growing.

In light of the increasing national popularity, Hicks is excited about the potential of River Chase.

“We had about 80 participants last year, and 2,000 spectators,” Hicks said. “We’ve pushed harder with advertising this year, and it’s big that racers love the venue.”

Hicks said that because there has been such positive feedback from competitors, there is a chance Rock Falls could land divisionals – a key points competition.

“That is an important race that they have every 2 years, and it would bring 50 percent more

boats,” Hicks said. “The racing community said it would be huge.”

Like last year, the River Chase will be the same weekend as the Rock Falls Chamber’s Summer Splash festivities. While promoters might be tempted to move one of the events to draw crowds on different weekends, the decision was made to pair up the events.

“Combining resources for promotions and things like porta-potties is helpful for both groups,” said Bethany Bland, chamber president and CEO. “We also thought we’d have a better draw together, than we would separately.”

The chamber members

have also embraced the River Chase and bumped up sponsorship of the boat races.

Bland said the potential of both events made a compelling argument for quality over quantity.

“As the riverfront development continues, especially with the amphitheater, the possibilities are unlimited,” Bland said.

These two events can be the foundation of something really big.”

Live music, fireworks, Ferris wheels, and pony rides are some of the elements that could be added. Other water sport organizations, including jet-skiers, have also put

out feelers about using the Rock River. Events planning, however, sometimes requires a fair amount of restraint.

“We’re open to a lot, but we want to be able to sustain the growth,” Bland said. “Having to take things away later can ruin an event.”

Another consideration is that the larger events throughout the region are scattered elsewhere on the calendar.

“Regionally, there isn’t much competing with us, so we believe it provides an opportunity to establish this as a Rock Falls weekend,” Bland said.

LEE COUNTY

Cities adding a lifesaving tool Amboy and Sublette enlist lifesaving drug to combat heroin deaths

BY CHRISTI WARREN

Alex T. Paschal/apaschal@saukvalley.com

Once the rubble is cleared, the former site of C&E Glass will be prepared for the learning center that will also be used for activities and historical displays.

C&E Glass building leveled Site future home of planned Lincoln Learning Center

BY PAM EGGEMEIER

STERLING – The building at 611 E. Third St. that once housed several businesses, most recently C&E Glass, is now rubble.

The circa-1950s structure was demolished Wedneday by Tampicobased Burke Excavating to make room for the planned Lincoln Learning Center. In June 2013, the Sterling-Rock Falls Historical Society bought the building next to the Lincoln-Manahan Home.

“He started at 7 a.m., and it was all done by

11 a.m.,” said Bill Abate, president of the historical society. “Now comes the hard part – separating it and carrying everything away.”

The contractor will dig through the rubble from the more than 4,000-square-foot building in the next few days to determine what is salvage and what goes to the dump. A large amount of concrete will likely be broken into small pieces for future roads projects.

When the rubble is cleared, work on footing and floors can begin.

The historical society plans to take advantage of the interest piqued by the excavators, and keep residents’ attention as the project progresses.

“We’re getting ready to hit the fundraising campaign trail so we can take advantage of the activity at the site,” Abate said.

The organization has raised about $100,000, and is trying to raise an additional $200,000 for the learning center that will be home to the Junior Historian Program, historical society events, and traveling exhibits.

The cost depends greatly on the organization’s ability to solicit in-kind donations.

“We think $300,000 will do it, and it could be considerably less if we can get a large group of volunteers for some of the work,” said Ed Ebersohl, historical society vice president.

AMBOY – In response to increased heroin use in Lee County, Amboy Fire, Amboy Police, and Sublette Fire departments will all soon carry Narcan, an anti-overdose drug.

Training in using the drug is scheduled for June 15, Amboy Fire Chief Jeff Bryant said.

Lee County and Dixon police departments have a separate training scheduled for later next month.

Departments have felt an urgency to act after heroin overdoses, some fatal, have increased recently in the county.

“It’s just another tool in everybody’s toolbox,” Bryant said. “Especially for law enforcement.

We’re going to be able to give them the initial dose of medication. ...

The thing about narcotics is that it slows your breathing, and it slows your heart rate, so sometimes it slows your breathing down to when you’re not breath-

ing at all, so this will counter that.”

Bryant said it can take paramedics 20 to 30 minutes to get to the center of Amboy from Dixon – an EMT division that does carry the potentially life-saving drug.

Emily Rose, 46, and her daughter Molly Rose, 20, both EMTs from Amboy, attended a training at KSB in Dixon Wednesday night. Both were excited about the idea of taking a proactive step toward protecting their community.

“You get a high number of people that survive [overdoses] in Dixon, because they get access to Narcan quickly,” Emily Rose said at the training session.

“In Dixon, you can get to people quickly with Narcan. In Amboy, you can’t.”

Bryant said that Amboy probably had three or four overdoses in the past year.

“It’s a sad, sad story,” he said. “It could be one person that tries it their

first time, and – bad judgment call, great person – but all of a sudden there they are.

So, hopefully, this drug will counter that.”

Bryant’s own motherin-law, in fact, suffered a narcotics overdose.

She was living with Bryant and his wife at the time, and was suffering from bone cancer, he said.

“It was quite painful,” he said.

On that particular day, she had been given a Fentanyl pain patch at the hospital, and a home nurse didn’t realize she was already wearing one, so she gave her another.

Fentanyl is a potent narcotic.

“It had the same effect [as heroin],” Bryant said. “She became unresponsive. They transported her to the hospital, and one of the paramedics tried Narcan, because when a patient is unknown, unresponsive, that’s one of the protocols. Sure enough, it worked.”

Board eyes cameras at Lowell

Plenty of tips, but no suspect

Chairman: Park becoming haven for drug trafficking

BY BRENDEN WEST

DIXON – Lowell Park is becoming a growing haven for drug trafficking, says Ron Pritchard, chairman of the Dixon Park District Board of Commissioners.

For that and several other reasons, the board has discussed installing security cameras at the entrance to the park.

District director of maintenance Duane Long presented camera quotes during the newly sworn board’s first meeting on Wednesday. The technology, which would cost about $2,385, could live stream to a server, store video footage for up to a month, and have enough acuity to record license plates, visitor faces, and other information.

‘‘

I think it could be a deterrent once people find out what’s going on. If I was going to do anything with drugs, I sure wouldn’t want a camera involved.

’’

Ron Pritchard, board chairman

“I think it could be a deterrent once people find out what’s going on,” Pritchard said Wednesday. “If I was going to be doing anything with drugs, I sure wouldn’t want a camera involved.”

But like for any public agency, the cost could be a drawback, and since the cameras haven’t been utilized at the park before, it’s not known how effective they would be, Executive Director Deb Carey said “It’s a hard decision,” Carey said Thursday.

“You want to do every-

thing you can, but you also don’t want to spend money on something that may not prove to have the security.”

In general, Carey said, parks throughout the state are susceptible to drug and vandalism issues. In the case of Dixon, parks such as Lowell are in wide open, remote locations.

The board has been weighing potential security camera benefits for 2 years, Carey said. It has come to no resolution thus far.

“I’ve been here 27 years, and we’ve found

drug paraphernalia in all of our parks,” Carey said. “I hate to think of people going to the parks with their family and finding these things.”

At the park entrance, it’s not likely a camera would get footage of drug deals, but officers could identify suspect vehicles.

Shane Miller, board vice chairman and a Lee County sheriff’s detective, said for that purpose, security cameras would be helpful.

“If an incident happens, it would be a very good tool to have,” he said.

The board asked Long to get more information about the cameras’ capabilities. No action was taken.

The board next meets June 24.

ANALYSIS | NATIONAL RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION SHOW

A veritable melting pot of ideas Technology big part of industry

BY ANDY COLBERT Shaw Media

CHICAGO – To satisfy a more sophisticated, educated and engaged customer, the food and beverage service industry is always on the lookout for the latest trends and most efficient ways to deliver those eats and drinks.

Operators representing fast food, casual dining, bakeries, institutional feeding, catering, liquor establishments, and plain old street vendors came together May 16 to 19 at McCormick Place in Chicago for the 96th National Restaurant Association Show. More than 60,000 attendees from all over the world had the opportunity to view 2,000-plus exhibits and 80 educational forums, covering various food, beverage, equipment and technology innovations.

This is not the food and beverage industry of 10 to 20 years ago. With the advent of technology, changing consumer palates and food allergies, it’s not even the same business as 2 or 3 years ago. What, where and how we eat and drink is undergoing the biggest change ever, and owners and managers of food operations that do not keep up with the latest trends might find themselves at a financial disadvantage or go out of business.

However, keeping up with consumer habits isn’t the biggest hurdle operators face. According to the NRA’s yearly survey of owner/operators, the biggest challenge in 2015 is government regulations, which have become more onerous, affecting profits and creating more duties and paperwork. That is followed by food costs, the economy (No. 1 in 2012) and labor costs, with the minimum wage impacting food service more than any other segment of business.

On a positive note, April was a record-setting month for the food and beverage industry, with $51 billion in sales. Behind housing and transportation in consumer spending, people spend 13 percent of their income on food, whether dining out or the grocery store.

What potential diners look for most in selecting restaurants are service, quality, value, favorite items, location and nutrition.

Today’s foodies have also made it known they want it made “fresh.” A growing segment has come to demand natural ingredients with local sourcing and environmental sustainability in the equation. Sure, some people still crave deep-fried foods or a big porterhouse, but there is a nationwide movement afoot to provide healthier options, especially in school cafeterias.

In walking the aisles of McCormick Place, it’s apparent we’re not a meat-and-potato society anymore. Vegetablebased proteins, exotic fruit blends, allergy-free products, exotic grains and anything low-fat were on display every-

where.

Eli’s Cheesecake debuted a dairy-less cheesecake. How about chocolate organic hemp milk infused with wheatgrass? Or, a vegetarian gyro? Tired of regular spaghetti noodles? Try gluten-free pasta made with black beans instead.

One the biggest exhibits was that of Budweiser, packed with those eager for free samples. In contrast to the beverage behemoth, smaller booths scattered throughout the trade show offered craft beers.

Decades ago, when “lite” beer was considered cutting edge, who would have thought these flavored ales, lagers and stouts would make such inroads into the booze business? Want some authentic Hawaiian filtered volcanic water, or a chocolate martini made with bacon? Both were available for sampling.

The bacon craze has extended from hog to cow. A bacon product call Schmacon, made with beef instead of pork, was creating a buzz.

Upstarts claim it’s lower in fat, calories and sodium, in an attempt to gain a share of the lucrative bacon market.

With celiac disease and other allergy and healthrelated concerns on the rise, the food industry has changed its focus and is become more accommodating in its menu-planning. No longer is gluten-, dairy-, soyor nut-free considered a nuisance to food operators, but an essential part of creating a secure and safe dining experience.

One hot trend at the NRA show was the incorporation of allergy-free food products into the total dining experience.

It’s not so much what you want on your pizza, but whether the crust is regular or gluten-free.

A while back, salsa overtook catsup as the No. 1 condiment in this country. Look out, salsa. Sriracha, a Thai chili paste, is the next big thing in condiments, at least according to those in the know at the NRA show.

Remember that grilled cheese sandwich your mom made on white bread with Velveeta cheese? The latest rage among young hipsters is grilled cheese sandwiches with artisan whole grain breads and fillings like brie, gouda and caramelized leeks.

Instead of a baked potato or rice pilaf as a side dish, how about kale stuffed with quinoa and kumquats? Or roasted cauliflower with flax seedinfused olive oil? Coming soon to a restaurant near you are these and other eclectic offerings.

NRA research shows that today’s consumer is more adventuresome and willing to sample more exotic dishes.

Television channels like Food Network and Travel Channel also contribute to a more engaged dining patron. The era of “The Galloping Gourmet” and Julia Child on TV is almost prehistoric.

Among ethnic cuisines, sushi, Vietnamese, Peruvian, Korean, Ethiopian, Brazilian, Thai and Mediterranean are on the move. None are ready to supplant Mexican, Italian or Chinese as the most

popular, but they have begun to make inroads in our eating consciousness.

The American public hasn’t gone completely bonkers in abandoning old favorites, though. One of the original comfort foods – macaroni and cheese – is riding a wave of newfound popularity via a variety of menu reincarnations. And an NRA survey shows that BBQ, hamburger, pizza, French fries, ice cream and fried chicken remain perennial favorites.

A significant change in food service on display at the NRA show was in technology. A vast area of the McCormick floor space was set aside for tech only, something unheard of years ago when restaurants were still using manual credit card machines.

An NRA survey found that a tablet or iPhone is used by 70 percent of adults when dining out, for things like a restaurant’s hours/location, making a reservation, menu, nutritional info, reviews and paying the bill.

One of the education forums was about understanding and engaging millennials using social media. Maybe that isn’t such a big deal to the mom-and-pop joints that rely on good food and service, but for a chain franchise, it can be critical to the bottom line.

That’s what so fascinating about the NRA show. It brings together people from all aspects of the service industry to learn and share ideas and products.

Aware of this asparagus dish?

BY CHRISTI WARREN

The perfect appetizer for a backyard barbecue

Y

ou guys don’t know this about us, but fellow reporter Kayla Heimerman and I are pretty good friends. We get together to cook, chat, walk through Sinnissippi Park, and, most importantly, play with her adorable daughters.

With spring upon us, and asparagus season in full swing, we thought it would be fun to whip something up and then share it with our lovely readers.

One morning a couple of weeks ago, I happened to see a photo of a beautiful asparagus and Gruyere cheese tart.

I messaged Kayla the photo to see if she’d be interested in giving it a try, and she said yes!

Onward.

She provided the asparagus and the pastry sheet; I bought the Gruyere; and the rest is gooey, nutty, delicious history.

This tart would be perfect as an appetizer for a backyard cookout or a graduation party.

And, if just asparagus and Gruyere sounds boring to you, spice it up with prosciutto, ham, bacon, even rotisserie or

Christi Warren

With asparagus and Gruyere cheese, you can make this delicious tart. You also could replace the asparagus with spinach, or the Gruyere with Swiss. Or you can add prosciutto, ham, bacon, or chicken. So many possibilities! grilled chicken.

Kayla also suggests artichokes, or spinach in place of asparagus.

Or Swiss in place of Gruyere, which, depending on where you buy it, might be a less expensive option.

Heck, put a fried egg on it, why don’t ya. Your

options are limitless.

Happy eating!
