A proposal to upgrade, rebrand and use the Morrison Sports Complex as a home for traveling youth baseball tournaments met some resistance at a special council meeting Monday, Feb. 7.

More than 40 residents packed the Odell Public Library community room Monday to offer input and listen to the council’s discussion-only meeting about the facility’s future. A proposal by Baseball 365 CEO, president and sales and marketing manager Shawn Kramlich calls for a partnership with the city to convert the complex for baseball tournament play. Kramlich was at the meeting.

His proposal includes leasing the complex at $1 per year for 10 years, upgrading the four current ball diamonds, installing batting cages, upgrading the seating and concessions, and renaming the facility to Heartland Park, with a $100,000 initial investment by the city. The complex has four connected fields, but a stand-alone field has drainage issues that limit its use.

The heart of the issue is the displacement of girls softball, since the diamonds would be upgraded with grassy infields and permanent mounds, meaning female athletes would need to play in other fields in the community.

Several residents took the opportunity to share their thoughts about the proposal.

Scott Connelly questioned whether Morrison could draw traveling sports teams when other cities offer more amenities. He praised the strong sports programs in the community and the quality of life they bring to Morrison. Chelsea Stuart, vice president of Morrison Youth Baseball & Softball (MYBS), said accepting the proposal would displace teams and send a negative message to female athletes who would have to play elsewhere.

Randy Stralow questioned the $1 per year lease rate, saying the city would essentially be “giving it away.” He acknowledged that the complex could be utilized and marketed more, but community involvement could help fill that gap.

“Instead of giving it up to make money, we could do it in a different fashion,” he told the board.

Don Tegeler said people will come and go and the city can spend $100,000 to make it viable, but the community needs pride in its facilities. He said moving forward with the plans means turning the community’s back on the girls. He also reminded residents of the Morrison County Club, which was taken over and eventually closed, cautioning that the same could happen at the complex. Jennifer Suarez also questioned the financials of Baseball365, noting that a quick search showed several claims against the company. “Who’s to pay when

something goes wrong?” she asked the board.

Michael Benson noted that most of the costs would be born by the city, while profits would be generated for Baseball365.

Though the proposal estimates at least $3 million a year in economic benefits, the lack of hotels and other amenities to keep families entertained means they’d be staying elsewhere, such as Clinton or Sterling.

Jill Rickey said she sees the pros and cons, such as making necessary repairs to the facility, but the cons are “telling the girls they can’t be here,” and relocating T-ball teams. She recommended a trial basis or compromising so both baseball and softball teams have access, saying the city needs to be inclusive for all.

Morrison School District Superintendent Scott Vance said other fields in the area are not up to standards, estimating at least $100,000 to upgrade the high school field, while the junior high field would not even be an option. He said the district could be more proactive based on the council’s direction, but more discussions and budget planning meetings would be required.

After the community comments, Kramlich explained the financial litigations against the company, with building and field lease terms that weren’t honored, insurance paperwork and communications that were mismanaged, and a bankruptcy claim in 2014 after moving out of a building in Waukesha after a significant investment in upgrades. He assured the council that “all matters are settled or satisfied.”

He continued that the facility would still be open for local youth, while the organization would market the complex to teams throughout the Midwest weeklong or weekend tournaments in the summer.

“We’re willing to work with the city to make this happen,” he said, while adding that field requirements for boys baseball

would need to be the same if he’s to bring in tournaments.

The council members had few questions for Kramlich. Mayor Scott Vandermyde admitted that the complex is not reaching its full potential, and residents could look at creating a park district through a public referendum. Sidonna Mahaffey said the community feedback was appreciated, and she hopes more residents get involved and step up to help bring more activity to the often “empty and idle” fields. Gregory Kruse said the lease rate should be negotiable to make it more palatable for citizens.

Vern Tervelt summarized by stating “there’s a lot of questions yet to be answered.”

GLIMPSES OF THE PAST - FULTON

1992: Cub Scout Pack 342 names Pinewood Derby winners 60 Years

Feb. 14, 1962

Mr. and Mrs. David Mitchell and their daughter, Luann, were among the guests at the Morrison Chapter of the D.A.R. dinner when Good Citizenship awards were presented. Award winners were Luann Mitchell of Fulton, Mary Bordner of Morrison and Linda Norman of Erie. Each winner gave a brief outline of her activities and each was presented with a pin.

Patent Novelty stockholders held their 56th annual meeting. Reports showed an increase in total volume of business and an increase in earnings during the past year. Board of directors reelected were Eugene Dana, A. Loomis Hanson, Miss C.J. Dugan, A.B. Oakleaf, Henry Norman, Dr. B.J. Snyder and J.E. Mitchell.

50 Years

Feb. 16, 1972

Three high school students were granted scholarship loans by the Insurance Men’s Scholarship Loan Board for 1972. Students receiving loans were Nancy Sikkema, Dave Hill and David DeWeerdt.

Members of the Fulton High School basketball squad chose Miss Marla Mensch as their Basketball Sweetheart

for 1972. She reigned over the basketball game when the Steamers played Riverdale on their home court. She was escorted by Mark Borgman.

Construction of the main pumping station for the Fulton flood protection dike has begun. When completed, the station will pump Fulton’s storm sewer water over the top of the dike in case of severe flooding. The site is located just south of the sewer treatment plant, just west of 24th Avenue.

The Fulton School Board continued making more budget cuts and voted 6-1 to eliminate the golf coaching position, bringing the total cuts made thus far to about $180,000. Athletic Director Stan Borgman presented the athletic department’s feelings in the matter. Borgman said the coaching staff would rather see an entire sport eliminated than to see one coach cut. He said the staff felt that by making further staff cuts, it would lead toward a “watered down” program and “no one wants to see that happen.”

YOUR HEALTH

Conjunctivitis symptoms are discussed

By STEPHEN D. HARRISON, M.D.

Conjunctivitis, or what is more commonly known as pink eye, is a common condition particularly in the flu and cold season or allergy season. While it is highly contagious, especially in day care settings, it generally does not lead to further damage beyond the short-term localized infection.

The condition is an inflammation of the outside layer of the eye, the conjunctive, and its infected portion is more readily visible in the white portion of the eye, the sclera. It is often caused by a virus, but there may be bacterial elements, as well. Other factors that may contribute to conjunctivitis are smoke, wind, dust and allergies. All irritants, including viral infections, may set one up for more concerning bacterial infection.

The most common symptom is redness or mattering of the eye. Mattering may be most prominent in the morning, but in advanced stages may flow throughout the day. While the process is irritating, it is generally not painful and there may be some mild sensitivity to light. If these conditions exist, one should not hesitate to go to their doctor.

Treatment, like many medical conditions, is best done in the preventive stage.

Feb. 13, 2002

Careful hand washing and some degree of isolation will help lessen the spread dramatically. Avoiding rubbing the eyes also can lessen the organisms that show up on the hand and are transmitted to other objects or people. Given the degree of difficulty in following the basic measures with young children, one can readily envision how the condition is rapidly transmitted in day care settings.

Once the condition is established, warm compresses to the eye for five to 10 minutes four times a day may help lessen the intensity and relieve some of the milder or viral infections. When the condition is more notable, antibiotics are prescribed to bring the infection under control. These should be taken exactly as directed. Also contact lenses should be avoided during treatment. Once treatment has begun, the process generally tends to improve rapidly. If noticeable improvement is not seen within two to three days, your physician should be contacted.

A child generally can attend school unless there is prominent flow, known as exudate, coming from the eye making it more bacterial. When the eyes are mainly just pink with only mild flow, it is generally a viral or less threatening condition.

Fulton 171-pounder Evan McCallister, a junior, will compete in the IHSA state wrestling tournament after his runner-up finish at the Byron Sectional. Teammate A.J. Champion, a senior, will serve as an alternate at 112 pounds after a fourth-place finish in his bracket.

SCHOOL NEWS

By SARAH FORD For Shaw Media

Riverdale High School’s robotics team, the Robotic Rams-FTC Team 6596, raised $2,500 in January to purchase LEGO sets for children at the University of Iowa Stead Family Children’s Hospital in Iowa City.

The team recently went shopping at Walmart in Silvis and loaded up three carts with 98 individual sets.

Coach Jason Dennhardt personally delivered them to the hospital a couple od days later, noting that COVID19 restrictions limited the number of visitors.

Dennhardt said the team was inspired to start the annual project in 2017 when Blaine Lofgren, son of elementary school principal Mark Lofgren, was in the hospital for several months fighting Burkitt lymphoma.

When asked how the team could help, Mark Lofgren suggested doing something for others at the hospital, since he saw firsthand so many people with much less support than his family had. “Quickly after that conversation, this idea was born,” Dennhardt said.

Over the past five years, the Robotic Rams have raised more than $11,000 and donated more than 450 LEGO sets to the hospital, which gave them recognition on social media last week

Morrison Lions Club fulfills ‘we serve’ motto for 2021

With great support from the community, the Morrison Lions Club was still able to keep their “We Serve” motto despite the ongoing pandemic.

At the local level, the club, with the assistance of Morrison American Legion Post 328, announced a campaign last fall to replace the 350 flags used for the Avenue of Flags that line Route 30 and Route 78 on holidays and special occasions. Avenue of the Flags was started 32 years ago by the late Mayor George Piersol. Thanks to the tremendous community support for this project, enough donations have been received to replace all the flags!

Morrison Lions Club held a successful Recycle Day last April and is also planning another event tentatively set for Saturday, April 23. Watch for more information in coming weeks.

They also are working with the city of Morrison to purchase some play-

ground equipment for the Morrison Sports Complex.

The Lions provided aid to Morrison residents who needed assistance with vision services. The club also reimbursed CGH Health Foundation for eyeglasses they provided to Morrison area children and adults. Donations were made to White Oaks Therapeutic Equestrian Center, Morrison Youth Baseball and Softball, and Morrison T-Ball. Two $1,000 scholarships were awarded to Morrison High School seniors. A donation was made to Odell Public Library for the purchase of large print books and in support of their new flooring project. The Lions also made a donation to Helping Hands and at Christmas, members donated caps, gloves/mittens and scarves which were taken to schools for distribution to children by teachers and nurses who saw a need.

At the state level, donations were made to the Lions of Illinois Foundation, which included support for free low vision screenings for very visually impaired children and provided help for visual needs at no cost. Donations also were made to the foundation for diabetes awareness and to Camp Lions, which is a camp for youth and adults with vision and hearing problems. Support was also given to Eversight - Illinois whose mission is to restore sight and prevent blindness.

They receive donations of eye tissue, such as corneas, and are involved with transplantation and research.

The club also supports the Center for Sight and Hearing located in Rockford, which provides support for both vision and hearing needs. The center’s technicians provide training, such as use of a white cane, training for the visual impaired to enable them to nav-

igate in their surroundings, and sign language classes. This past year the Morrison club provided four nights lodging and transportation for a Morrison resident to enable ongoing training for consecutive days.

The club donated to Lions International Foundation including support for their disaster relief efforts around the world. They also supported Leader Dogs for the Blind, which provided a leader dog and training with the dog for three weeks at no cost, which also included transportation to and back home as well as meals and lodging.

Riverdale’s Brock Smith and Alex Watson both placed second, while Fulton’s Zane Pannell and Erie-Prophetstown’s Wyatt Goossens both took third. His Panther teammates Jase Grunder and Elijah Friedrichsen finished fourth, as did Morrison’s Nate Schaefer.

White took care of business in the title bout at 182, notching an early takedown against Sandwich’s Alex Alfaro, then adding a few more en route to an 11-2 major decision.

Stillman Valley’s Jack Seacrist, limiting his opponent’s chances to score and pulling out a 4-2 decision.

“I knew he liked to throw, so I was just planning on tying up his hands and getting in my low shots, and that’s what I did,” Altensey said. “Then I kind of stalled out in the third, but now I know what he does and I’ll just learn from it for state. I’m sure I’ll see him at state.”

It’s Altensey’s second sectional title, and the junior was still trying to wrap his thoughts around it as he received his medal.

“It’ll probably sink in soon, but it’s pretty cool,” he said. “I won it freshman year, so I knew it was really important then. It feels good to be on top now.”

Rams teammate Brock Smith battled through the 132-pound title bout against Dakota’s TJ Silva, as the two went back and forth until the very end.

Silva pulled out a 9-8 victory, but the trip to state was a good end to a tough week for Smith.

“I was very sick this week and didn’t go to school a couple of days.

I missed out on a few practices, so really, just my coaches and my teammates picking me up and telling me I had it in me helped a lot,” Smith said.

“Those first few matches are what mattered the most. There are 16 spots on that state bracket, and it doesn’t really matter which one you end up on, as long as you end up on top. That’s my plan.”

He also feels like he knows what he has to do differently if he wants to make some noise at state.

“I’ve got to get a bully mentality out there to do what I want when I want,” Smith said. “That’s how I’ve won most of my matches this year, and I lacked that this weekend, and it kind of cost me that finals match. So I’ve got to get that bully mentality back in me, get back on my edge.

Watson was also in an exciting bout at 160 pounds, where he took on LenaWinslow/Stockton’s Marey Roby for the title. The two traded takedowns, and a late escape brought Watson within one point, but that’s where it ended as the Rams junior fell 5-4.

“I beat him earlier in the year, and I was close this time. I probably could have worked my offense a lot more,” Watson said. “Definitely my blast double [leg] and ankle pick were huge for me this weekend. I worked those two takedowns quite a bit.

“But next week is what matters. It shows me what I need to work on, so

I’m going to get back in the room and keep working.”

Erie-Prophetstown’s Wyatt Goossens pinned Newman’s Briar Ivey in 5:04 in the third-place bout at 113 pounds. Goossens trailed 4-0 and 7-2 in the first period before turning things around.

“I wasn’t wrestling smart,” said the Panthers freshman, who won by pin in 44 seconds in the blood round. “I let him get on my legs too much, and I went for some sloppy throw, and it

didn’t really work out. I got put to my back, but I fought off, and then from there, I just knew that I had to beat him. I knew I could, I could just feel it.

I knew I had to come back and win.”

The area’s other third-place finisher was Fulton’s Zane Pannell, who controlled Sherrard’s Ryder Roelf to the tune of a 10-4 decision in their third-place match at 170. Pannell punched his ticket to Champaign with a pin of Newman’s Hunter Luyando in 2:44 in their blood round bout.

“I just wrestled my way, my style,” Pannell said. “My brothers Eli and Max were here and gave me some helpful tips, so that helped.”

Erie-Prophetstown’s Jase Grunder and Elijah Friedrichsen both finished fourth, but were more excited about their wins in the blood round that punched their tickets to state.

Grunder lost 5-0 to Dakota’s Tyler SImmer in the 145-pound third-place bout. But it was his aggressive style that earned him an 8-2 win over Marian’s Nik Jimenez in the blood round.

“Just really the double leg [takedowns] is what did it,” Grunder said.

“I did that every time I took him down.

I think after I took him down the second time, it kind of hurt him a little bit.

I don’t think he expected me to come out firing like I did.”

Friedrichsen fell 6-1 to Polo’s Daniel Engel in the third-place match at 285, a bout that was scoreless until the final 38 seconds. Engel caught Friedrichsen off-balance and scored a takedown, then the Panthers senior popped right back up to make it 2-1. But Engel recorded a takedown and back points in the final three seconds to pull away.

And while Friedrichsen was bummed out about finishing with a loss, he looked back with pride at the run he had to make through wrestlebacks, including a come-from-behind

Friedrichsen trailed 4-1 in the consolation semifinal, but bounced back to beat Marengo’s Michael Macias 5-4.

He celebrated by grappling with head coach Tod McCullough, before eventually taking McCullough to the mat as the two embraced in a bear hug.

“I was very excited. I didn’t want to hurt him, but I was very excited,” Friedrichsen said with a smile. “Honestly, it’s just another thing that I needed to keep working hard for. Getting put on my back twice sucks, but I just need to fix what I can. I’m proud of myself because I overcame the adversity of losing my second match.

To all the kids on our team that said, ‘Oh, you’ve got to wrestle three more to make it now,’ I just said, ‘That’s just three more wins for us.’ It’s just more hard work that we need to push ourselves for.”

Morrison’s Nate Schaefer fell in the third-place match at 220 pounds, as he was pinned in 1:47 by Dixon’s Justin Dallas.

But it was after the blood round when Schaefer shared an emotional moment with his father, Adam, a former Morrison state qualifier. Schaefer defeated Wheaton Academy’s Peter Johanik 3-0 to earn a state berth, and after hugging his mom, Schaefer walked over to his dad, who was sitting on the floor at the edge of the mat in tears, and embraced him
