WELCOME
Big news in a
small town
I
continue to be pleasantly surprised by the ongoing efforts to create
events in Adel that entertain residents and visitors alike. As my dad
would say, “That’s big news in a small town.” Sure, there is plenty of bad
news in the world to write about, but we prefer to focus on the positive
in this magazine. Some of these events
have caught on, and some haven’t. That’s
OK. What’s important is that the good
folks behind these efforts keep working
on ideas to make Adel even more attractive than it already is — and that is no
easy feat.
Outdoor concerts have brought crowds
to town for various events throughout
the years, but they seem to have become
even more popular recently. Fresh air and
live music, along with food and beverage
of your choice, make for a relaxing way
to spend time with friends or family in
a community setting. The only thing that
could make them better is if they were
free, you say? Well, you will be glad to know that a free concert series is
returning on the fourth Friday of each month, April through August. With
bands featuring classic rock, blues country, R&B and jazz, you are sure to
find something pleasing to your ears. Look inside for details.
Car shows also bring crowds of nice people. I have been to a number
of them and enjoy them all, large or small, officially organized or simply
random. There is something wholesome about a car show, as it brings back
memories of simpler times. Now if there were only more in Adel. Well,
you are in for another pleasant surprise as cruise nights will be held on the
Saturdays of June 20, July 18 and Sept. 12 right here in town. We share
more on these shows in our cover story this month.
If that’s not enough, you can also learn about the Sheriff’s vehicle show
and numerous activities at the Adel Public Library. Dad was right. This is
big news in a small town. And we are glad to share it with you.
Thanks for reading. Q

usic, cars, books, a new cruise night
and more await Adel residents this
summer.
Organizers have put together three
cruise nights to encourage Dallas County
residents to come to Adel and support businesses and the community.
“We thought it would be kind of nice to
promote downtown Adel and bring people
back in on a Saturday night,” says Mike
Lynch, one of the event organizers.
Cruise nights will be held June 20, July
18 and Sept. 12 and start at 4 p.m. Anyone
can participate, and any type of vehicle is
welcome.
“There is no organization, just cruise
around, walk around, talk to people and have
a good time,” Lynch says. “It’s a just a reason
to get out on a Saturday night.”
The idea is that cruisers will come to
Adel, eat at one of the local businesses, stay
in town for a couple of hours, and then pos-

sibly cruise to another Dallas County community.
“This will be all about supporting businesses throughout Dallas County,” says
Chad Leonard, Dallas County sheriff.
Lynch says if the event is successful,
organizers will try to make it bigger. Limited
advertising is planned to announce the
event.
“I know when I was a kid, Saturday night
was a big thing,” Lynch recalls. “The family
went to town, and we’re trying to promote
that again, and hopefully, the businesses will
have a little more activity on a Saturday
night.”
Free concert series returns amid
success, adds family night event
Adel’s outdoor concert series, which has
drawn hundreds of attendees each time,
starts April 24 with a performance by Get
Off My Lawn, a classic rock band.
The Free Friday Concert Series started
three years ago as a way to provide a familyfriendly event to the Adel community.
“It has proven to be a great investment in
our community,” says Karina Ward, director
of the Adel Partners Chamber of Commerce,
the organizing sponsor of the event.
Attendance has grown each year, with
an average of 300 people at each musical
event. Organizers expect this year to be
even more well attended with larger, more
popular bands from Des Moines being
booked and a family night finale event.
An increase in sponsorships — the Adel
Partners Chamber of Commerce along with
local businesses and community organizations sponsor the events — has led to the
ability to bring in bigger acts.
Events are scheduled on the fourth
Friday of each month, April through August.
Entertainment is from 7-10 p.m. at the Adel
Community Stage and Pavilion at 10th and
Main streets. Each performance is family
friendly.
events committee.
“We’re trying to do a mixture of things
to bring variety,” says Doug Zeigler, president of the Adel Partners Chamber of
Commerce Board of Directors.
A family night was held the first year,
and because of its popularity and success,
organizers decided to bring it back again this
year, Ward says.
No food or drinks will be sold at the
events, so families are encouraged to pack
a basket of snacks and drinks — or grab
dinner from a local restaurant — and bring
their lawn furniture for an evening of entertainment. Alcoholic drinks are allowed in
designated areas, specifically the lawn area
around the stage.
“Since we’ve started it, attendance
has grown each year and each event has
grown,” Zeigler says. “We’re really glad
that the community seems satisfied with this
event we’re putting on.”
Scheduled events:
April 24: Get Off My Lawn, a classic rock
band.
May 22: Rebyl Road, a blues country
group.
June 26: Final Mix, a group that plays a
combination of R&B, jazz fusion, blues, hip
hop, rock ’n’ roll and original material.
July 24: Jazz vocalist Max Wellman.
Aug. 22: An Evening of Family Fun, which
features storyteller and puppeteer Carol
Taylor, clown performer Toby Kid, and
hypnotist Terry Stokes Sr.

Sheriff’s vehicle show continues to
raise money for Special Olympics
The Seventh Annual Dallas County Sheriff’s
Office All-Wheel Show will be from 10 a.m.
to 2:30 p.m. June 6 on the square in Adel.
Admission is free. The event raises money
for Iowa Special Olympics.
The show raised more than $3,000 for
Special Olympics last year. It’s raised as
much as $5,000 in some years.
Rainy weather last year led to lighter
attendance than usual, and some of the
entrants that were scheduled to attend did
not as a result of the weather, Leonard says.
The number of entries varies from year

to year because of the number of car and
motorcycle shows that are held.
“We’re going to do the best we can to
get it up to 150,” Leonard says.
The show is different from a lot of car
shows in that it invites any vehicle with
wheels on it to enter, from classic cars to
trucks to motorcycles to antique tractors.
Leonard’s own son, Elijah, 14, will enter a
motor and a frame he’s been working on for
a mini bike along with a 1965 Chevrolet Bel
Air that the two have worked on together.
The car will be Elijah’s when he receives
his driver’s license, which is why he’s taking
such a big role in its restoration.
“We’ll have some help with friends, but
for the most part, I want him to build it
himself and have pride in it,” Leonard says.
Leonard says organizers are trying to
get more customized vehicles into the show
this year.
Dash plaques will be given to the first 100
cars that register for the event. Participants
choose the top 20 cars. Awards are given
for Best of Show, Most Likely to be Stopped
by a Cop, Bad Bike, Long Distance and
Special Olympics Athlete Choice.
Leonard says the highlight of the event is
the Special Olympics Choice Award, which
the athletes themselves vote on. The athletes also help present all of the awards.
The Long Distance award goes to
the person who traveled the farthest to
attend the show. In the past, people have
come from Mount Pleasant and Spencer.
Participants to the show from all four corners of the state.
Registration is from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m.
FEATURE
Judging will take place from 1-2 p.m., with
awards presented at 2:30 p.m. Registration
cost is $15 for the first car and $5 for each
car after that per owner. Pre-registrants
receive a free car show T-shirt.
Registration can be mailed to Dallas
County Sheriff’s Office, 201 Nile Kinnick
Drive, Adel, Iowa 50003. Forms are available on the Sheriff’s website at:
www.co.dallas.ia.us/government/sheriff
under “Public relations events.”
This year the show will have more
booths and vendors with items for sale.
Sponsors are still needed for the event.
Anyone interested can contact the sheriff’s
office at: 515-993-4771.
Vendors typically donate a portion of
their proceeds to the cause. Otherwise 100
percent of all other money taken in for the
event goes toward the Special Olympics
athletes, Leonard says.
Adel Library plans another summer

Usually more than 300 kids and adults
sign up for the program, says Paula James,
the library’s director. There are four categories of participation: babies, school-age
children, teens and adults.
The program kicks off with a visit from

Blank Park Zoo at 10 a.m. June 5. Each afternoon at 2 p.m. there is a “Messy Monday”
craft for children. Other activities include:
Superhero-themed movies, which will be
shown every other Wednesday afternoon.
A caricature artist who will capture
children’s images and combine them with
superheroes. 10 a.m. to noon June 19. Signup is required.
A visit from Dallas County Conservation
at 2 p.m. June 24.
A magic show workshop for grades
three through five at 2 p.m. July 9. Sign-up is
required.
More activities are planned for teens and
adults. James says last year the teen finale
party included a trip to Barnes and Noble
bookstore where the teens each picked
out a book for the library and were then
treated to something from the coffee shop.
She plans a similar event this year.
For adults, James says the library is planning health and fitness activities that could
include disc golf and yoga classes.
Summer reading logs are due July 21,
with the finale event on July 23.
Children who complete the program
will receive prizes along the way and work
toward winning a free book. Q

HEALTH
What is the best toothpaste for you?
Different formulas take care of different needs
By L. Eric Anderson, DDS
f you neglect brushing and
flossing, no toothpaste will save
your smile. However, for those
who follow the advice of the
dental professionals, the right
toothpaste could prevent gum
pain, stained teeth, cavities and
more serious dental problems.
Choosing the “best” toothpaste
may seem overwhelming, as
there are so many options.
First things first: Always look
for the ADA Seal of Approval on
the box. This will confirm that
the toothpaste has been tested, its claims are legitimate and
ingredients effective. The next
step is to determine if you have
specific needs from your toothpaste.
As soon as you finish brushing, a sticky film of bacteria called
I
plaque is trying to form on your
teeth. Plaque interacts with certain foods — namely sugar — to
produce acids that eat away at
your tooth’s enamel. The result
of that can be cavities if left
undisturbed. Fluoride is nature’s
cavity fighter as it coats teeth
and protects them from those
cavity-causing acids. The more
time or exposure to fluoride,
the more benefit one achieves.
This means brushing and spitting
is better than brushing and rinsing. Additionally, sometimes it
is necessary to use prescription
cavity-fighting toothpaste if one
suffers from a dry mouth or is
consistently getting cavities.
Overachieving in plaque
removal and aggressive brushing
can lead to sensitivity. If your
dentist has ruled out cavities
and root infections, you may be
suffering from exposed root surfaces on your teeth. Cold drinks
and/or sweets will confirm this
issue. Desensitizing toothpastes
with agents like strontium chloride and potassium nitrate work
equally well and will help calm
sensitivity.
If, despite regular dental visits
and great homecare, you still
build tartar, consider buying tartar control toothpaste. These
help prevent that sticky plaque
from hardening into tartar. A
word of caution: some people
can experience allergic reactions
to these toothpastes.
Whitening toothpaste may be
beneficial for yellow and stained
teeth. These toothpastes contain
mild abrasives that help polish
teeth and prevent the buildup of
additional stains. However, they
have little effect on the natural
shade of your teeth or on older
discolorations and stains. To get
a brighter smile with whitening
toothpaste, look for one that
contains modified silicone abrasives. If you are not satisfied with
the results after one month, ask
you dentist about better whitening solutions.
Once you choose the type
of toothpaste, next is choosing
paste versus gel and your favorite
flavor. Happy shopping. Q

WHAT’S IN YOUR GARAGE?
Q: Is reminiscing beneficial
to the elderly?
A: Reminiscing, the process of “life review” is an important part of old
age. Any age, actually, as we all share our memories and spend time “filling each other in” on our life histories — who we are and have been,
where we have lived, who is important in our life.
Reminiscing enhances self-esteem. We all have a lifelong need to see
ourselves as unique individuals, and the recollection of pleasant experiences, past accomplishments and triumphs over adversity is part of this.
Reminiscing can be an important tool for socialization. When you
meet people, you learn about each other by sharing your life experiences.
Sometimes family members and friends are concerned if the older
adult repeats stories, returning to the same ones again and again. This,
too, is part of the life review process. Those stories are probably the

that they might be “working through.”
When reminiscing with a person with dementia it often helps to
“jump start” the conversation with old photos, music, smells or things to
touch. Ask questions beginning with “Tell me about the time...”
Older adults are a treasury of stored experience and information.
What a better way to learn what it was like in the “good old days” than
from someone who was there. Q

here comes a time in every
man’s life, when the craving for recreation simply
outweighs just about everything
else around. Now, granted, the
wife and family are certainly going
to stay at the top of the list of
the most “precious” things in life.
However, sometimes there is a
smidgen of a void that needs to
be filled… what could it be? Well,
it is time to get a motorcycle, of
course.
When Steve Brownsberger of
Adel is not at his job working
on the roads of Dallas County,
he is cruising the day away on
his motorcycle. This isn’t just any
motorcycle, it is a 2006 Harley
Davidson Street Glide.
“I had a bike before getting
married and having kids. Now that
the kids are older, we decided to
go forward and start riding again,”
he says.
Brownsberger, also a 20-year
volunteer firefighter for Adel, has
only had his a bike year but has
already put some good mileage on
it. He and his wife, Cindy, forget
about all of worrisome things in
T
the world and hit the road to
spend some peaceful quality time
together.
“We ride whenever we get
the chance. We have traveled
to Sturgis, South Dakota; Mount
Rushmore, and Devil’s Tower,
Wyoming so far,” Brownsberger
says.
Cindy Brownsberger says the
best ride so far has been to Devil’s
Tower.
“We rode to Devil’s Tower all
of the way from Sturgis,” she says.
“We are looking forward to many
more rides to come.”
Fifty and fabulous is oftentimes a phrase that is dedicated to
women turning 50… and not so
much men. Put a 50-year-old man
behind the handle bars of a wicked
machine on two wheels, with a
hot motor, and a ton of chrome
bling-bling, and you will see what
fabulous really looks like.
To infinity and beyond. Or
at least, to the fabulous 50 and
counting. Either way, Steve
Brownsberger will find his way, as
long as he is footloose and fancy
free on his Harley. Q

radition, love and laughter.
One Adel church is preparing for a special weekend
of events that includes all three of
these. At an Evening of Love Songs,
church and community members
at Adel United Methodist Church
are invited to showcase their talents and bring out their silly side
to provide good, clean entertainment for all in attendance.
T
A long-running tradition
The 2015 performance of Silly
Love Songs marks a long-time celebration of one of the church’s
most original events. For 25 years
the congregation has played host
to this unique collection of creativity.
The first night of celebrations
begins Saturday, April 25. Guests
are invited to attend a cavatelli
dinner at 5:30 or 6:45 p.m. at
the church. Following the fellowship, the fun begins as a roster of
church members take the stage
at 8 p.m. The fun continues with
a Sunday matinee show at 2 p.m.
accompanied by a variety of desserts.
One notable performance at
this year’s love song collection
will feature former Adel UMC
pastor Dr. Harold Green. Green
is no stranger to the long-running
tradition. As a matter of fact, he
was the one to get it started.
In 1990, Green decided to mix
his love of music with his wife’s
famous cavatelli with the first-ever
Valentine Dinner Show. The rest is
history.
Now the tradition has continued into 2015, as current pastor
John Augspurger and his wife Deb
continue to share their love of
music.

of arthritis. Osteoarthritis is a chronic degenerative condition that is predominantly caused by wear and tear on the joints in the body which leads
to the breakdown of joint surfaces. This leads to a decrease in cushioning
between the joints. With this decrease in cushioning, stiffness, loss of
motion and pain can develop.
Degeneration is a normal aging process. If we live long enough, we
will all develop some degree of arthritis. There are an estimated 27 million
Americans living with arthritis today. Not all people who have arthritis have
pain, and it is a common misconception that if you are diagnosed with having arthritis that you are destined to have pain. Usually, unless the arthritis
is severe, there are other physical reasons why people are having pain.
These reasons can include inflammation, tight muscles, decreased strength
and loss of mobility in the joint with arthritis and the surrounding joints.
Physical therapists can help manage some of this pain by helping correct imbalances in the body, designing a home program of stretching and
other exercises and using modalities as they are needed. Low-impact
exercise and weight control are also beneficial in managing the symptoms.
Your doctor may prescribe some medications to help relieve symptoms as
well. Q

A: Unfortunately, the government of the United States does not require
manufacturers of foods that have been made with genetically modified
ingredients (GMOs) to be labeled as such. The only way to guarantee
that you are not ingesting GMOs is to eat only foods that are certified
organic, which by definition cannot contain GMOs, or have been verified GMO-free by the Non-GMO Project, an independent organization
whose goal is to enable people to choose non-GMO. Most processed
foods likely contain GMOs. Data from 2011 indicate that approximately
90 percent of all corn, soy and canola are genetically-modified and 95
percent of sugar beets, a primary source of sugar in processed foods.
Certain fresh produce also contains GMOs including papaya, zucchini and yellow summer squash, so it is a good idea to purchase these
from organic sources. Ingredients that are usually made from GMO
crops include amino acids, aspartame, ascorbic acid, vitamin C, citric
acid, sodium citrate, ethanol, flavorings (“natural” and “artificial”), highfructose corn syrup, hydrolyzed vegetable protein, lactic acid, maltodextrins, molasses, monosodium glutamate, sucrose, textured vegetable
protein, xanthan gum, vitamins and yeast products. Rather than carrying
around this list, use an app for that. Some apps to consider include
GMO-Checker, True Food, ShopNoGMO and the Non-GMO Project
Shopping Guide. Some of these require only a simple barcode scan to
identify whether GMO ingredients are present. With tools like these,
it is much easier to make healthier choices, especially considering that
approximately 70 percent of foods in the U.S. are made with GMOs. Q

Kids have

Q: What are the physical
effects of chronic stress?
A: Stress is natural and necessary consequence of living, but there is no
need for us to suffer from its physical consequences. When excessive,
stress produces undesirable physical and mental reactions such as depression, disturbed sleep, chronic fatigue, tics and twitches and frequent illnesses. One of the most frequent physical manifestations of mental stress
is muscle spasm, especially in the localized groups of muscles in the neck,
shoulders and lower back. It is so common to have these spasms that we
tend to ignore them, which leads to the sequence of tension building until
something mental or physical reaches a threshold and deteriorates causing
a state of “dis-ease.” Deformities such as kyphosis (humping of the spine)
and scoliosis (curvature of the spine) are often the result of not handling
the stress that produces the muscle spasm and ultimately shortens the
tendons and muscles. The physical consequences of muscle and tendon
shortening can also trigger headaches and chronic malfunctions of organs
such as the thyroid, kidneys, heart, lungs and those of the reproductive
and digestive systems. Muscle tension and shortening alters the alignment
and function of the spinal column that protects the spinal cord. Even minor
disturbances in the function of the nervous system can interfere with the
way the body functions and create a state of “dis-ease.” Chiropractors
specialize it the hands-on treatment of your spine and nervous system to
free your body from the physical consequences of stress. Q

Q: How can I prevent falls as
I grow older?
A: Whether it simply bruises your ego or breaks a bone, taking a fall is no
fun. Each year, one in three seniors 65 and older experiences a fall — a
number that has grown in recent years. For people
in this age group, falling is the leading cause of
injury and injury-related deaths.
Whether due to concerns about independence
or worrying others, however, fewer than half these
people tell the doctor about their falls. Be upfront
with your doctor and caregivers. Provide details
about when, where and how you fell. We can help
you pinpoint the problem and suggest changes you
can make. Falling might be due to a chronic health condition, an infection,
a balance disorder, vision problems, muscle weakness or medications.
s3TAYHEALTHY Even simple lifestyle changes can make a difference
in preventing falls. This includes maintaining good physical condition with
exercise, sleep and nutrition. Also, stay well hydrated with plenty of water.
With your doctors permission, engage in exercise that improves strength,
flexibility, balance and gait. This might include walking, water workouts or
yoga.
s2EVIEWYOURMEDS Here’s where your pharmacist can really help.
Make a list of your medications. Do any make you dizzy or drowsy? Your
doctor and I can review this list with you, discuss any side effects you are
having and decide whether it makes sense to change your medications. Of
course, don’t make any changes without first having a conversation with
your doctor. Q

EDUCATION
WHERE WE LIVE
Meet Christal Tilley
Educator teaches (and learns) “stuff” every day
By Ashley Green
hristal Tilley was born
in Texas and raised in
California, but today calls
Iowa her home. She graduated
from Iowa State University, earning a bachelor’s degree in elementary education with emphases in
history and educational technology. She is currently attending
Viterbo University for a master’s
in education.
Tilley was inspired by her
early teachers, whose methods
have resonated with her for years,
as well as her mom and grandma.
The women of her life believed she
could do anything, even be the first
in her family to graduate from high
school.
“Their faith in me from such
a young age helped me build that
faith in myself,” says Tilley.
Tilley was fresh of out college
when she began working for the
ADM School District. This is her
14th year as an employee. Tilley
taught technology for four years,
third grade for a year, fourth grade
for two years, and since then she
has been a second grade teacher.
A regular day begins with Tilley
greeting her students and listening
to their various anecdotes. The
students spend their time working on various subjects, alternating between learning and recess.
Tilley’s favorite activity with kids
is the Reader’s Workshop when
they have a mini-lesson before
moving into small groups to talk
about and read books. At the end
of the day Tilley says goodbye to
her pupils with a high five, a “foot-

high five” or a hug. She keeps a
Twitter page updated for parents
to see what their children have
been up to day to day.
The practical outcome of
teaching second grade is “for
the students to become better
readers, writers, mathematicians,
thinkers and caring citizens,” but
Tilley believes that her students
have taught her about “the things
that are important” as well. She
considers her job to be her calling,
saying, “I would not be the kind of
happy I am here anywhere else.”
She believes that the integration of
technology, Alphabet Alley (a place
where students can publish their
writing), Watch Dogs and math
tutors are all programs that keep
students engaged.
One of Tilley’s favorite parts
of her job is talking to kids and
sharing their achievements with
their parents. She is happy to work
in a district where parents are so
supportive of teachers. Q
What do you like best about your teacher?
Jordyn Howell:
“She lets us eat
lunch with her.”

Successful small-town living
Reed family finds its “village” in Adel
By Dawn van Buren
acey Reed uses a traditional
proverb when she refers to
her neighbors and neighborhood in Adel.
“It takes a village to raise a
child, and I love my village” she
says, referring to Luther Drive, the
neighborhood where she, husband
Justin and their three children live.
The proverb is quoted often when
conversation is centered upon
maturation of a child or children.
The young parents who live in
the Reed’s neighborhood are helpful and willing community partners,
looking out for each other and
each other’s children. This is a true
village approach, making Adel a
good place to raise a family. This
is exactly what the Reeds were
looking for when they built their
home in 2011. Both Lacey and Justin
grew up in small towns — Lacey
in Clarion and Justin in Goldfield.
They want their children — Corbin,
Kipton and Laityn — to experience
the same small-town lifestyle that
they encountered.
Their two-story home was built
by KRM Development. It has four
bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a large master
suite with French doors and office
area, a kitchen with a dining area
L
and access to a covered deck. The
kitchen is equipped with GE Profile
stainless steel appliances including a
dishwasher, double ovens, a microwave, range and a refrigerator with
lower drawer freezer and French
doors. Granite countertops with
stone backsplash and Bertch custom designed cabinets stained the
same color as the wood trim on the
upper level complete this beautiful
kitchen. A utility/mud room with
lockers, a lower deck, basement
and a three-car garage make up the
remainder of the floor plan. The
house is customized to the Reed’s
specifications, including a fireplace,
a built-in entertainment center and
pocket doors in several rooms. The
woodwork and trim is way beyond
ordinary. Attention to detail is evident in every part of the house.
Lacey and Justin own Studio
10, an Aveda salon, on the square.
Lacey has managed the hair salon
since it opened under the name of
Marc Stephens & Friends in 2006.
The Reeds purchased the salon in
2010.
Justin works as a business analyst for ITAGroup Inc. in West Des
Moines. The Reeds are happy that
they chose to live in Adel. Q

LEGAL BRIEFS
New rules create expedited system
Approach is streamlined and cost-efficient
By Amy Pellegrin, attorney at law
he Iowa judicial system
now allows for litigants to
select an expedited option
when filing a civil lawsuit. These
new rules, effective Jan. 1, 2015,
increase accessibility to individuals filing suit by providing a more
streamlined and cost-efficient
approach to a system more typically associated with slow turnaround and significant expense.
s 4HE REQUIREMENTS In
order to qualify for the expedited system, you must be seeking $75,000 or less in monetary
damages, including all measures
of damages. You may not be
seeking any form of damages
apart from monetary relief. The
party bringing the lawsuit must
“opt-in” in order to enter the
T
system. There is also an option
to enter into the system if all
parties to a lawsuit agree to the
expedited requirements even if
the case exceeds the ceiling on
damages.
s4HEBENEFITS The parties
involved in the expedited system
are subject to limited discovery.
This means that each party is limited in the number of questions
or document requests it may
present to the other side. There
is also a limit as to the number
of depositions each party may
take and experts it may retain.
The reason these limitations are
beneficial is because discovery is
generally the most expensive and
time-intensive part of litigation.
In addition, the trial must
be completed within one year
from the date a party files its
initial petition with the court.
The trial is limited to two business days and presented to six
jurors. Again, these restrictions
are beneficial because it limits the
expense to each party and results
in an efficient trial presentation
by both sides.
In general, the expedited
system is not for everyone.
However, if you are considering filing a lawsuit that meets
the requirements, the expedited
system’s streamlined approach
may provide a more realistic
option for you to pursue your
case. Please consult an attorney
for more details about this new
option and the accompanying
rules. Q

OUT AND ABOUT
RECIPE
John Standley, Lrinda Standley and Lori Brocka at the Adel Chamber’s annual dinner on
March 24.
Springtime treat
Refreshing lemon bars are super easy
By Jan Allen
pring has sprung! Winter’s tired north winds are beginning to give
way to the warm breath of southern breezes, and thawed ground
yields tulips, daffodils and dandelions. The frogs are croaking and the
bees are buzzing.... I love spring.
I was looking through my recipe collection for something that spoke
“spring” to me and came across this recipe for lemon bars. The recipe
is on a large index card that was handwritten by my mama. She passed
away 10 years ago, and seeing her handwriting brings back such precious
memories of her. She was a wonderful, spunky little lady who loved to
bake, and she taught me well, as I share that love of creating yumminess
in my kitchen and sharing it with others as she did so often. I grew up on
a farm, and practiced baking almost daily in the summer. My dad baled
small square bales of hay and hired several high school boys to help. My
job was to provide cookies and iced tea in the afternoon to those hungry
guys. I never tired of baking. These lemon bars are easy, light and refreshing. The bottom layer is a buttery, flaky crust topped with a sweet lemony
goodness on top. Did I mention easy? They are super easy and are pretty
simple, using only six ingredients. Enjoy this beautiful Iowa springtime
season, and I hope you can give this refreshing lemon treat a try. Q

t’s a great feeling to hang out
with friends and family around a
blazing fire in your backyard in
Adel — unless, of course, that fire
blazes a little too much.
I
COMPASS
FINANCIAL SERVICES
While a fire pit can be a wonderful addition to your home, all
fires are potentially dangerous. So
before you sit down with some
marshmallows to roast, we have
gathered up some tips to help you
keep that fire in the pit (and away
from everything else).
Are you legal?
Before building or buying a fire pit,
check the regulations in your area
to learn about restrictions.
Your fire pit may be legal, but
a fire might not always be. Monitor
and follow community burn bans.
Be respectful. Nothing can
extinguish the good vibes of a nice
fire more quickly than police complaints from smoked-out neighbors.
What kind of pit do you want?
You can buy a fire pit or build one.
If you choose the latter, there are
plenty of resources online to help
you design it. Don’t dig a hole just
anywhere and throw some rocks
down. Put some thought into it
and you’ll have a better — and
safer — spot to enjoy.
If you want convenience, a
propane model might be right for
you. They produce less smoke and
have an adjustable flame.
Ready to build your fire?
Actually, you probably aren’t ready
yet.
First, ensure the area under
and around the fire pit is clear
of flammable materials. Keep the

pit itself at least 10 feet from any
structures.
Before you start the fire, have
a fire extinguisher or a garden
hose handy.
OK, now are you ready to
build your fire?
Choose hard, seasoned woods.
Sparks from softer woods like
cedar can increase the danger of
igniting something nearby.
Don’t use liquid fuels, even
lighter fluid, to get your fire going.
And don’t burn paper, cardboard,
leaves, garbage, etc.
If you have a metal fire pit,
don’t overload it, and always use
the included safety screen.
Is the fire out?
When you’re done, spread out
the ashes and let them cool off for
a bit. Then gently pour water or
sand over them. Stick around for a
little while to watch for flare-ups.
We want you to have plenty
of nice, warm nights — without
getting burned. Here’s to making
memories around the fire. Q

evening while cutting wood and has had to resort to the use of crutches. L.
V. Russell received word last week that his son, Willard, was quite sick at
Booneville, Mo. where he was attending school. Mr. Russell and his brother,
Cedric, went to Booneville and returned last Thursday with Willard.”

April showers
Spend those rainy days with a good book
By Brittany Duckett
hough April can keep you
inside a large majority of
the month due to rain,
there’s no companion on those
days quite like a good book, magazine or DVD. Be sure to stop by
throughout the month of April so
you can be prepared.
On April 25 there will be a
Friends of the Adel Public Library
Foundation luncheon and a presentation to follow by Jan Price,
director of the Adel Historical
Museum. This event starts at noon
and is free and open to all of our
Friends as a way to say thank
you. We encourage our Friends to
bring a non-Friend member to the
lunch and presentation. Price will
present on George Washington
Clarke and Nile Clarke Kinnick,
two famous Adel residents. Both
of these men brought honors to
Adel, Dallas County, the University
of Iowa and Drake University.
Registration for the luncheon is
required, so please stop in the
library or call 515-993-3512 to
sign up for this event.
We would also like to remind
our Friends about Adel Public
Library’s Annual Book Sale in
August. Our Friends have the privilege of shopping early, before it is
open to the public. We are always
looking for more members, and
for as little as $5 per year you can
become a Friend of the Adel Public
Library. An entire family can join
for $10 or you can join for a lifetime and pay $50. Questions about
becoming a Friend? Call Paula at
the library; she would be happy
to answer any questions you may
have.
Make sure you soak up each
T
and every day of story time in April
because in May we will be taking
the month off to prepare for our
Summer Reading Program. This
month we will have our Preschool
Story Time on Mondays, Toddler
Time on Tuesdays and Music Time
on Thursdays; all programs begin at
10:30 a.m. We like to be silly, read
lots of books, do crafts and get our
bodies moving, so be sure and join
in on all the fun. After April is over,
we will resume our regular story
time on Monday, June 8.

del Partners Chamber
of Commerce hosted
the first-ever Chamber
Annual Dinner on Tuesday, March
24. The event was held at Park
Place in Adel, and more than 125
people attended. The turnout for
the event far exceeded our initial
expectations, and I would like to
thank everyone who helped make
this event a great success.
A
The members of the planning
committee worked hard to plan
a memorable evening that both
celebrated the Chamber’s recent
successes and offered an opportunity for new and prospective members to get acquainted with the
Chamber and our members. Many
thanks to Rob Burditt with Brick
Street Financial, Peg Chapman with
Eric Schepers State Farm, Tammy
Howe with Adel & Winterset TV
& Appliance and Dan Juffer with
Horizon Printing.
I also want to recognize our
event sponsors who donated generously to help cover the costs
of the event. This year’s sponsors
were Eric Schepers State Farm
Insurance, Lincoln Savings Bank,
Peoples Trust & Savings Bank,
Raccoon Valley Bank, River Valley
Insurance, and Russell Abstract &
Title. Several businesses donated
their time, services and products
for the event, including Fareway,
Harvey Floral Company, Horizon
Printing, Iowa Beverage Systems
and Raccoon Valley Radio. These
local partners made it possible
for the Chamber to make the
first annual dinner a wonderful
experience and something to look
forward to next year.
One of the highlights of
the evening was speaker Chuck
Offenburger. Chuck spoke about
his experiences writing about small
towns throughout Iowa during the
past 50 years and shared his recent
experience with the Raccoon River
Valley Trail and how the development of the trail has benefit the
many trail towns.
The evening concluded with
the Annual Chamber Awards.
Adel is a growing and thriving
community in large part because
of our great local businesses and
strong base of volunteers. The
awards provide an opportunity to
honor a few of those businesses
and individuals. Rich Hughes was
named the 2014 Volunteer of the
Year for his years of organizing
the corn tent during the Sweet
Corn Festival. Rich loyally helps
out behind the scenes and is welldeserving of this award.
The Business Improvement
Award was given to Adel Family
Dentistry for its investment in the
Adel community and continued
growth. Adel & Winterset TV &
Appliance was named the 2014
Business of the Year in recognition of its substantial history of
success and positive impact on
the community. As one of Adel’s
oldest businesses, it continually
goes above and beyond to meet
the needs of its customers. Since
opening in 1960, the business has
continually grown and expanded over the past 55 years. The
Chapman family is well-known in
Adel for its contributions to the
community. Q
