YMCA announces
plan to move from
high school
By JOHN JENSEN
The Grundy Register
GRUNDY CENTER — The
Grundy Center Family YMCA announced last Wednesday that it will
be moving from the Grundy Center
secondary school to a new location.
Director Andrew Peters said
during
Wednesday’s
regularly-scheduled school board meeting
that the YMCA is moving forward
with a new facility partner and
is no longer focusing on a future
school-YMCA partnership.
Peters said he could not disclose
details of where the Y could be moving to or who its new partner is.
The YMCA also asked to be able
to use the high school fitness facility
rent free through June 30, 2016 due
to its need to pay rent to the City of
Grundy Center for use of the former
Upper Elementary building and the
fact that the space it has been able to
use at the school has become considerably less.
“A decrease in rental fees to the
school will help the YMCA commit
important resources to our next facility,” Peters said.
Following a lengthy debate, the
School Board granted the Y’s request to waive the rent, however it
denied an additional request that the
Y could use the space beyond June
30 and pay a rental fee.
Director Chad Mackie, who voted against the agreement, said he
was concerned about cutting $1,000
per month from the school’s income
during the District’s difficult financial period.
An initial motion to allow the
YMCA free rent through June 30,
2016 and pay monthly rent after
that if it needed more time failed by
a 3-2 vote with Directors Mackie,
Ron Saak and Brent Ascher voting
against the motion and Bob Johanns
and Kelly Mathews voting in favor.

Local
Veterans visit Washington, D.C.
Many veterans from Grundy County were part of the 13th Waterloo
Honor Flight last Tuesday. Sullivan-Hartogh-Davis American Legion
Post No. 730 shuttled 98 veterans and their guardians to Washington,
D.C., on a day when temperatures neared 100 degrees. While in Washington, the veterans visited the National World War II Memorial, Korean War Veterans Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, United States Air Force
Memorial, Arlington National Cemetery. Pictured above as they are
greeted at the Baltimore-Washington International Airport are Dike’s
Gerald Eimers and Arlan Anderson with their guardian Eric Anderson.
Right, Grundy Center veterans John Kramer, Wilbur Muller, Harry
Dole and Orlin Stensland are pictured at the Lincoln Memorial. More
pictures are on page 6 of today’s paper. Grundy Register editor John
Jensen also shares his thoughts about the flight in “From the Cheap
Seats” on page 4. (John Jensen/The Grundy Register photo)
Waugh sworn in as newest Grundy Center Police Officer
By JOHN JENSEN
The Grundy Register
GRUNDY CENTER — Kyle
Waugh is coming home.
For the past 20 years the Grundy
County native has been going all
over the United States and world
with the Army and Army National
Guard
protecting
America’s
freedom. Now, however, he is ready
for a new challenge as Grundy
Center’s newest police officer.
Waugh was sworn in as an officer
last Thursday after City Council
approved his hiring two days before.
His hiring brings the Grundy Center
Police Department back to four fulltime officers for the first time since
Chris Henely left the department a
short time after joining it.
The new officer brings a
background in military medicine to
the department. He served first in
mental health and later in trauma
medicine and flight medicine and
said coming to law enforcement
brings things full circle.
“I actually started out with an
interest in law enforcement and then
when I went to the military I went
into medical,” he said. “After my
last tour I decided that I needed to
get out of medicine.”
Waugh has been taking Police
Sciences classes for the past two
years while also working full time
and attending the Reserve Officer
Academy in Waterloo. He has been
a reserve officer in Waterloo and has
done an internship with the Grundy
County Sheriff’s Department. It was
during the internship that he learned
of Grundy Center’s position.
“It seemed like a natural place for
me to come,” he said.
Waugh, who is certified as a
reserve officer, must still complete
certification to be a full-time officer,
though he can also serve as the
Grundy Center officer while he
completes the certification. After
that …
“It’s kind of surreal,” he said. “For
the last two years I’ve been working
full time, I’ve been going to school
full time, I’ve been going to the
reserve academy … it’s going to be
nice in eight weeks to be doing the
job that I’ve been working my tail
off for.”

during a swearing-in ceremony last Thursday at City Hall. (John Jensen/The Grundy Register photo)

Grundy Center business owner disputes
Supervisors’ property salvage decision
By JOHN JENSEN
The Grundy Register
GRUNDY CENTER — A Grundy
Center business owner approached
the Grundy County Board of
Supervisors Monday about their
decision to invite an out-of-town
business to salvage property at 706 H
Avenue while not contacting her.
Marcia Roll, owner of Gems
Antiques and Other Things said
she became aware of the salvage
operation last week and was told by
an individual from Paulina, Iowa
that they had been contacted about it.
Roll asked Supervisors why she was
not contacted.
“Why did I not get an e-mail?”
she asked. “All I would have liked
was an opportunity to bid. Maybe
I would not have won the bid, but
it would have been nice if I had a
chance.”
Supervisor Barb Smith, herself
a Grundy Center business owner,
toll Roll that she had looked for
antique dealers that dealt in house
parts online and that there was no
reference to Roll’s business while
also noting that she was unaware that
she dealt in such items.
“I’ve never seen any house parts
out on the street,” she said. “How
would one know (that you deal in
that) if you are never open.
Roll became emotional during
the discussion, often talking over
Smith as the Supervisor attempted to
explain her process. Smith said she
would have contacted Roll had she
know that her business dealt in such
items.
“If I had known you would have
been the first person we contacted,”
she said.
The Board also approved a
revised Open Records Policy as
recommended by the Iowa State
Association of Counties. The policy
includes procedures that must
be followed for review of public
records as well as availability and a
fee schedule. It also approved three
fireworks permits and employment
contracts for Regional Coordinator of
Disability Services Todd Rickert and
Coordinator of Disability Services
Andie Nichols.
The Board also discussed
the possibility of installing new
LED lighting as well as leaving
courthouse floodlights on all night
instead of shutting them off at
midnight, though a resolution for
such changes was never brought to
the table with a motion.
IN OTHER BUSINESS:
• County Engineer Gary Mauer
said Jacob Monaghan had been hired
as a county mechanic;
• Sheriff Rick Penning was
presented with a 40-year service
award;
•
AFLAC
Insurance
representatives Missy Modlin
and Michell Bantz reviewed their
offerings with the Board.
Two arrested following high-speed pursuit through Grundy County
By JOHN JENSEN
The Grundy Register
DIKE — Two suspects were
arrested late Monday afternoon
following a high speed police
pursuit through Grundy, Hamilton,
Hardin and Black Hawk Counties.
According to a report from
the Black Hawk County Sheriff’s
Department, two robbery suspects
began eluding law enforcement
in Hamilton County. The pursuit
reached Highway 20 where,
according to scanner traffic, speeds
reached 110 miles per hour. The
suspects apparently eluded one
attempt to stop the vehicle with stop
sticks in Grundy County.
The suspects exited Highway 20
at Dike and began heading east on
160th Street. Stop sticks were again
deployed at the intersection of 160th
Street and Grundy Road, this time
successfully. According to a report
on KWWL.com, the suspects’
vehicle then entered a ditch in
Black Hawk County, after which the
suspects were arrested.
Names of the individuals
arrested were not immediately
available nor were charges.

without the generous financial
support of many local businesses,”
said Jennifer Karns, Felix Grundy
F e s t i v a l c o - c h a i r. “ T h e F a n
Club gives individuals in the
community and non-residents an
opportunity to support the annual
event. Families look forward

Mayo “Mike” Huisman
A “Celebration of Life Service” for Mayo “Mike” James Huisman was
held on June 9, 2015 at First United Methodist Church with the Rev. Greg
Kroeger and Pastor John Britt officiating. Interment took place at Black Hills National Cemetery with military honors provided by VFW Post
1273.
Mike died June 4, 2015, at Golden Living
Center - Meadowbrook in Rapid City, South Dakota.
Memorial may be directed to the Hope Center of Rapid City, an organization “helping others through prayer and encouragement”. Through
God’s love, the Hope Center offers the homeless
and those without hope in our community, an environment of respect, encouragement and guidance, as they move toward a better life.
Mike was born March 15, 1928, at Wellsburg,
the son of Meint James and Ellen (Lamb) Huisman. He was the youngest of five brothers and
a sister. Mike attended schools in Wellsburg and
graduated from high school in 1945 at the age of 17. Several of his summers
during high school years were spent helping his uncle and aunt on their ranch
in Montana where Mike gained an appreciation of the “Old West”.
Mike enlisted in the Army in July of 1945. He was assigned to the Army
Specialized Training Reserve Program held at SDSU, Brookings, SD. Basic
training was at Ft. Bliss, Texas followed by a tour of duty in Manila, Philippines. After a six month assignment at West Point, New York, he was honorably discharged April 2, 1947.
He began his career in education teaching Junior High math and science
at Malvern, IA at the age of 19. He attended the University of Northern
Iowa and received his Bachelor of Arts degree in 1951. A highlight of this
experience was the summer of 1950 when he and his mother attended school
together. Mike taught in schools in Colfax and Grundy Center, IA, where
he also served as Junior High principal. He taught for a year in Lintz, Austria, for the Department of Defense, in Ypsilanti, Michigan and three years
in Caracas, Venezuela at Camp Alegre. Mike received his Master of Arts
degree from the University of Iowa in 1957. He then served as Elementary
and Junior High principal at Clear Lake, IA. Mike spent summers attending
college and received a Specialist in Education Degree from the University of
Colorado in August of 1972. Mike was employed by the Rapid City School
system in 1961 and established the Instructional Materials Center. He retired
in 1988 after forty years as an educator.
He met his wife, Shirley, at Clear Lake, and they were married in 1962.
They would have been married 53 years in July, lived at the same residence
for 53 years and were members of the First United Methodist Church in
Rapid City for nearly 53 years. Mike liked to say “We had a trifecta.” They
raised two sons, Mark (deceased 2012), and Brett.
Mike was a member of First United Church and Methodist Men. He was
active in men’s activities in his church and served as a mentor for the younger men. He was on the board of Church Response for a number of years and
was one of the persons who started the food certificate program; which is a
fund raiser for Church Response and is still in effect today. He was a member
of Mended Hearts and Mended Little Hearts.
Mike had a quick smile and a keen sense of humor. He was a man of many
interests including, fishing, gardening, golfing, playing “dummy” rummy at
Jerry’s, cooking, photography and traveling. The things he enjoyed most
about gardening were preserving and sharing his produce. He enjoyed freezing homemade ice cream to share with summer visitors. Ever the instructor,
he made certain that everyone who wanted a taste of this special treat would
take their turn at turning the handle of the freezer properly until the ice cream
reached the desired consistency. Another specialty of Mike’s was his peanut
brittle and he would make ten or twelve batches every Christmas season.
These were carefully packaged, labeled, and delivered to his many care givers, neighbors, and friends.
A special joy in recent years was reuniting with many of his former students he taught while in Caracas, Venezuela. Mike and Shirley were blessed
to be able to attend several of the reunions these students planned, particularly to be able to rekindle their relationship with a favorite teacher. Mike traveled throughout Europe and South America as well as to most of the states
in the United States. He especially enjoyed his travels to cities in Austria and
Germany and to Costa Rica. However, his favorite travel destination was to
Iowa to spend time with families and friends. Special fishing experiences
were trips to Canada, the Missouri River, as well as to many of the lakes in
the Black Hills. Ice fishing was a favorite activity and Mike enjoyed smoking
and sharing the trout he caught.
Mike is survived by his wife, Shirley; his son, Brett of Frisco, TX; sisters-in-law, Helen Huisman of Holland, Virginia Huisman of Grundy Center,
and Mildred Huisman of Sarasota, FL; brothers and sisters-in-law, Bill and
Marcilee Yeager of Newton, Clell and Linda Bryan Allerton, Larry and Madeline Wilcox of Columbia, MO, Richard and Frances Henderson of Newton,
IA; his very special nieces and nephews, Bonnie Moses, Bob Huisman, Peg
Huisman, Jackie Lauer, Patsy Hoekstra, Bonnie Eggers, Larry Ward, Ginny
Oddo, Toby Huisman, Duane Huisman, Mona Huisman, and Larry Huisman.
He was preceded in death by his dear son, Mark; nephews, Mike and Leo;
his parents; his brothers, Herbert, Gene, Lester, Eldon, and Ralph; his sister,
Wanda; and his sister-in-law, Sally.

From The
Cheap Seats
I talked at length in weeks leading up to last Tuesday’s Honor Flight to
Washington, D.C. about how much I was looking forward to the trip and how
much I looked forward to spending
time with America’s heroes. With
the trip now in the rear-view mirror,
I can honestly say that the trip was
as special as I had hoped it would be,
though for a very different reason.
Having been to Washington, D.C.
only once in my life, I was looking
forward to seeing things I had only
read about and seen in pictures. My
interest in American history and
passing interest in politics make
Washington a natural place to be
fascinated with. And while seeing
all that was fantastic, it was also
extremely irrelevant compared to the
really exciting part of this trip. That
By JOHN JENSEN
had to do with seeing how these great
men were treated.
I wrote a couple of weeks ago about feeling odd when an Honor Flight
volunteer saluted me (and the others) as we walked in the door to the hall at
orientation. I did not and do not deserve that, as I never served, and will not
accept an honor reserved for those who did. And let me tell you that being
saluted is nothing compared to the feeling of being in a group that is being
cheered for by total strangers.
It all started early in the day at the Waterloo airport, where the reception
was very much what I had expected. Everything ramped up, however, when
we landed in Baltimore. I had seen pictures and video of airport water
salutes, where the airport fire department shoots water over an aircraft that
might be on its maiden flight or that might have a VIP aboard and had heard
they sometimes did this for Honor Flights. As many Honor Flights as have
landed in Washington and surrounding airports, however, I was more than a
little surprised when the captain announced that there was one for our plane
and the veterans. I couldn’t see much from my seat, but just knowing it was
happening was extremely cool. Before we ever exited the plan, a United
States Coast Guard officer who happened to be at the airport at the time
came on board to speak to the veterans. Then as we came off the plane, the
veterans were greeted by a number of Baltimore-area veterans, soldiers and
well-wishers.
As we walked down the corridors at the Baltimore-Washington
International Airport, spontaneous applause broke out nearly every place we
went from people apparently aware that these were America’s heroes. The
applause grew as we went past the ticket counters and didn’t taper off until
we reached the buses that would be our home for the day.
As we toured Washington, D.C., visiting the National World War II
Memorial, Korean War Veterans Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, United States
Air Force Memorial, Arlington National Cemetery and driving by many,
many other places of note, I had a chance to talk to and visit with many of the
veterans, including some from outside the area. I also had a chance to spend
at least a little individual time with each of the four Grundy Center veterans,
a couple of whom I considered to be friends long before this trip. One of the
things that surprised me was that I never heard a single war story. Some of
that could be that many of these men served during peace time, but I think a
lot of it was due to the fact that the Honor Flight wasn’t about the past — it
was about celebrating what these men had done.
From time to time during the trip my thoughts strayed to my grandfather,
who served in Hawaii during World War II but who passed away long before
the Honor Flights began. I wished aloud more than once that Grandpa Jensen
(“Gramps,” as I called him) had been honored like this. I’d like to think that
this is something Gramps would have approved of ... that he would have
been honored to be recognized for his contributions to our freedom. In a
sense I feel like I was there representing him.
Our greeting in Baltimore and what we saw in Washington however,
seemed small compared to a couple of things that happened on the trip home.
About halfway through the flight the organizers paused the in-flight movie
to distribute mail call to the veterans. This is one of those times when I was

‘Friends of Mike’ to raise
funds
for 2016 Honor Flights
In order to continue sending America’s veterans on future Honor Flights,
the Sullivan-Hartogh-Davis Post No. 730 is encouraging individuals and
businesses to donate to a new fund-raising program.
The “Friends of Mike” program asks for a simple $100 minimum contribution. All funds raised are utilized to sponsor additional Honor Flights to
Washington, D.C.
The goal of the project is to obtain at least 3,000 ‘Friends of Mike,’
which will provide an opportunity for three more Honor Flights.
To donate, send checks to: Sullivan-Hartogh-Davis Post #730; Post Office Box 182; Cedar Falls, IA 50613

really glad to be sitting with one of the men being honored, Grundy Center’s
John Kramer, as he opened his envelope to see letter after letter written by
local schoolchildren. Most of the letters were simple, some even written in
crayon, but all had the same message. They said “Thank you Veteran.” No
words could have described what this day was about any better than that.
By the time we landed in Waterloo and personnel who had apparently
never operated a jet bridge figured out how to get us off the plane, we were
tired and ready to get home. Yet there was one more surprise to come.
Though we knew there would be a reception at the airport, I had no idea how
incredible the reception was going to be. Hundreds of people from Waterloo,
Cedar Falls, Grundy Center, Dike, Reinbeck and every place in between had
packed the airport to greet these guys. There were enough people that I could
barely find my girlfriend and barely said hello as I walked by. We walked
down one row of people only to find another and then one more before we
finally reached the door. It was the type of reception that most of these guys
never received when they came home from the service ... one that they all
deeply deserved.
It was at this time that I felt like I shouldn’t be there ... we really should
have let the veterans off the plane first or had a separate exit for the workers
and guardians. This was not our place. The celebration was for the veterans.
Guys like Grundy County veterans Arlan Anderson, James Bowen, Vernon
Conradi, Harry Dole, Gerald Eimers, John Kramer, Dean Larsen, Wilbur
Muller and Orlin Stensland earned this. I did nothing and neither did the
other guardians. My job was to tell their story.
This was the 13th Waterloo Honor Flight and I cannot commend the
organizers enough. The entire trip, from the flights to the tours to the places
we visited, were impeccably planned. We had enough time at each stop to
enjoy them, yet not so much that you were likely to get bored. The lunch and
dinner they gave us were tasty and everywhere we went the people we met
were incredibly friendly.
Organizers are still working to raise money for Honor Flights next year
that would take Vietnam veterans to Washington. Just as much as veterans
from World War II and Korea, veterans from the Vietnam era deserve to be
treated the way the guys I spent last Tuesday with were.
Thanks to the Sullivan-Hartogh-Davis Honor Flight chapter for inviting
me to participate on last week’s flight. It was an experience that I will never,
ever forget.

Grundy County
Conservation Director
Well, it happened again. A Black
Bear was spotted over by Dubuque a
few weeks ago and numerous sighting occurred as it traveled East to
Black Hawk County. Then a bear
was discovered dead along the road
near Jesup in Buchanan County. It is
unsure whether this was a sole specimen or if perhaps it was one of two
or three young bears roaming around
eastern Iowa. The latter is probably
the case.
Well, I went to the file and pulled
up the news column I wrote on Black
Bears in Iowa that I wrote in 2007.
While I seldom resubmit previous
columns, I decided to do that this
week because all the information is
still as pertinent today with this latest bear episode.
Black Bears in Iowa? You bet!
James Dinsmore in his book “A
Country So Full Of Game” devotes
a chapter to the Black Bear in Iowa.
Much of the historical information
on Black Bears shared here comes
from that book. I highly recommend
reading it.
While probably never a species
that was plentiful in Iowa, there still
are many pioneer accounts of Black
Bear sightings and killings – more
common in eastern Iowa counties
but widespread throughout the state.
Forty-eight counties in Iowa have
Black Bear accounts. The last Black
Bear sighting in Grundy County was
one shot in 1855. It is very likely
that Black Bears had been extirpated
from Iowa by 1876.
The Black Bear was Iowa’s largest predator and certainly had to be
very noticeable when encountered
because adults can reach weights in
excess of 300 pounds. A common
thread in most pioneer accounts is
the hunting down and eventually
killing of the animal. Settlers would
see them as a threat to their livestock
and themselves. They also could be a
nuisance and damager of crops. And
too, bears were valuable as food and
for their pelts. And by the way, did
you know that most of those pioneer
accounts of bears are largely the
same? First someone spots a bear or
bear tracks. He goes to gather some
neighbors and together with a few
dogs, they go forth to pick up the
trail of the bear. And more time than
not, they get their prize.
Also supporting the evidence that
Black Bear were found in Iowa is
the fact that there are eighteen Bear
Creeks and four Little Bear Creeks.
There is a Bear Creek in Grundy
County. And several townships in
various Iowa counties are named
Bear. The Maquoketa River takes its
name from an Indian word for bear.
In recent years there have been
occasional reports of Black Bears in
Iowa. All would appear to be individuals that have wandered in from
surrounding states or escaped from
captivity. Black Bear as a species
will go through natural dispersal
cycles when their numbers are more
plentiful. That is a natural way for a
species to increase its range. But I
wouldn’t worry much about it. The
Black Bear historically was found
in small numbers in Iowa. We are
even a less attractive place for Black
Bears today.

Showcase at the Grundy County
Fair. The show will run like a
normal poultry show only the
bird will be exhibited by paper
entry. The judge will talk to youth
about the exhibitor’s knowledge
of the breed, care, feed and
photos provided by the exhibitor.
Exhibitors have the opportunity to
participate, earn ribbons, premiums
and if participating in showmanship
earn champion and reserve
champion awards.

Amateur radio field day set for June 27
Local Amateur Radio operators
from Grundy County and adjoining
counties will be participating in the national Amateur Radio Field Day exercise, June 27 at Otter Creek Lake and
Park six miles Northeast of Toledo.
Since 1933, ham radio operators
across North America have established
temporary ham radio stations in public
locations during Field Day to showcase the science and skill of Amateur
Radio. This event is open to the public
from 2 to 6 p.m. on Saturday, June 27.
For more than 100 years, amateur
radio — sometimes called ham radio
— has allowed people from all walks
of life to experiment with electronics
and communications techniques, as
well as provide a free public service to
their communities during a disaster, all
without needing a cell phone or the Internet. Field Day demonstrates ham radio’s ability to work reliably under any
condition from almost any location
and create an independent communications network. More than 45,000
people from thousands of locations
participated in Field Day in 2014.
“It’s easy for anyone to pick up a
computer or smartphone, connect to
the Internet and communicate, with no
knowledge of how the devices function or connect to each other,” said
Sean Kutzko of the American Radio
Relay League, the national association
for Amateur Radio. “But if there’s an
interruption of service or you’re out of
range of a cell tower, you have no way
to communicate. Ham radio functions
completely independent of the Internet
or cell phone infrastructure, can interface with tablets or smartphones, and
can be set up almost anywhere in minutes. That’s the beauty of Amateur Radio during a communications outage.”
“Hams can literally throw a wire in
a tree for an antenna, connect it to a
battery-powered transmitter and communicate halfway around the world,”
Kutzko said. “Hams do this by using
a layer of Earth’s atmosphere as a sort
of mirror for radio waves. In today’s
electronic do-it-yourself (DIY) environment, ham radio remains one of
the best ways for people to learn about
electronics, physics, meteorology, and
numerous other scientific disciplines,
and is a huge asset to any community
during disasters if the standard communication infrastructure goes down.”
Anyone may become a licensed
Amateur Radio operator. There are
more than 725,000 licensed hams in
the Iowa United States, as young as 5
and as old as 100. And with local clubs
such as the Iowa Wireless Amateur
Radio Network, it’s easy for anybody
to get involved right here in Tama
County.

Day, contact Tom Bicket, AE0TB,

Local veterans participate in Honor Flight
Nine Grundy County veterans were guests of the Sullivan•Hartogh•Davis Post No. 730 for the 13th Waterloo Honor Flight last Tuesday. Veterans visited the National World War II Memorial, Korean
War Veterans Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, United States Air Force Memorial and Arlington National Cemetery and saw many other parts of Washington, D.C. during the tour. (John Jensen/The
Grundy Register photos)
Veterans from Grundy County and surrounding areas are pictured during a group photo opportunity at the Air Force Memorial.
Grundy Center’s Orlin Stensland is greeted at the National World War II Memorial by a group of Iowa
Hawkeye fans who came out to greet the Honor Flight veterans.
Grundy Center’s Wilbur Muller stands in front of the Korean War Veterans Memorial. The Memorial was a
favorite for the veterans, many of whom served during the Korean Conflict.
Left, Grundy Center’s Harry
Dole is greeted by an active duty
United States Navy seamen as he
exits the airplane at the Baltimore-Washington International
Airport.
Grundy Center’s John Kramer and his daughter and guardian for the trip, Shannon Appel, are greeted by
well wishers at the Waterloo Regional Airport upon the return home of last Tuesday’s Honor Flight.

Volunteer Fire
Department
Sidewalk
construction
Sidewalk repair took place on State street. Paul,Jim and Breen removed
the broken stretch of sidewalk and are putting the finishing touch to a
complete project. Yes they have a volunteer supervisor looking on. City
officials are extremely happy when home owners replace broken and
cracked sidewalks. Kids take the sidewalks to school, health walkers use
the sidewalks to get to the trail, and Sunday afternoon strollers need
smooth walks. Many times kids and adults are forced to the street for
stumble free walking. Regulations request that homeowners are responsible for construction repair of broken and unsafe sidewalks.
Thank you for making my 90th birthday so special. Cards and gifts will
keep this memory alive for months to come. Oh what a party!!! Happy
Father's Day! Charles Paige. Pictured with Charles are Diane, Suzan
and Joel.
The City of Dike at this time has
16 dedicated volunteer Firemen on

Meetings are monthly on the 1st
Wednesday of the month. The fisrt
hour of the meeting is for training.
There is also a monthly training

Night Golf Fundraiser at Fox Ridge
On June 19 it seemed to take forever for the sun to set and darkness to
take over. Golfers were anxious to hit the course. Golfers first paid the
entry fee and headed to the dining room for dinner. This event was a
fund raiser sponsored by the Dike Community Development Association
with money to be used for fireworks on Watermelon Day on August 8th.
Teams took time to decorate their golf carts as darkness had not yet arrived. It was like the saying goes, A watched pot never boils, so it goes for
waiting for darkness. The night golf event was attend by 15 four-person
teams and a total of $2,000 was raised. Fireworks will be purchased and
used on Watermelon day.

How to clean your grill during summer party season
Grilling season has arrived, and
amateur grillmasters everywhere are
gearing up for another summer of
backyard barbecues and family dinners outside under the summer sun.
But once you fire up that grill and
cook your first hot dog of the season,
your work is not quite done. Cleaning the grill after you have eaten
makes it easier to prolong the life of
your grill and ensure the foods you
eat are safe to consume.

cleaning easier. The sooner you start
cleaning the grill after you cook, the
easier it might be to make the cooking surfaces sparkle. That’s because

ideal for cleaning cooking grates.
Such brushes can quickly remove
grease and food particles, saving

can then clean the grill with a soapy

REINBECK – What began as a
promising week ended with disappointment last week for the Gladbrook-Reinbeck High School softball team.
The Rebels (4-10 overall, 2-6 in
the North Iowa Cedar League West
Division) opened the week with a
5-2 victory over rival Grundy Center
before falling 10-0 to Class 3A No. 3
ranked East Marshall and dropping
three games at the West Marshall
Tournament.
G-R played at Dike-New Hartford Monday and hosted AGWSR
Tuesday. It also hosts West Marshall
Wednesday and BCLUW Thursday.
Gladbrook-Reinbeck 5, Grundy Center 2
Madison White struck out 15,
tying the highest mark by an NICL
West pitcher this year, as G-R topped
Grundy Center.
The Rebels broke a scoreless tie
with a four-run fifth inning. Grundy Center cut their lead in half in
the sixth before the Rebels added a
sixth-inning insurance run.
The Rebels won despite recording just six hits, including White's
2-for-3 effort with a double and an
RBI.

Smoldt no-hitter highlights
Rebel baseball week
REINBECK – Joe Smoldt threw
a six-inning no-hitter against North
Tama last Tuesday, highlighting a
busy week for the Gladbrook-Reinbeck High School baseball team.
The Rebels (6-8 overall, 4-4 in
the North Iowa Cedar League West
Division) topped AGWSR and
North Tama at home Monday and
Tuesday before suffering road losses at Columbus Catholic and East
Marshall the next two days. G-R's
Saturday tournament, however, was
rained out.
The Rebels played at Dike-New
Hartford Monday and host Denver,
Bedford and Hudson Wednesday,
Thursday and Friday.
Gladbrook-Reinbeck 9, AGWSR 5
The Rebels trailed 4-2 after three
innings before taking control with
a four-run fourth and adding three
sixth-inning insurance runs.
Bryce Ehlers struck out nine and
worked around four hits and seven
walks to pick up his first victory of
the season. He was also one of three
Rebels to record a pair of hits in the
game, joining Joe Smoldt and Jeff
Tscherter, who also had two runs
batted in.

G-R 9, AGWSR 5
Gladbrook-Reinbeck went up 2-1
at the end of the second inning and

the third. The sixth inning proved
the difference maker in the closely
played battle, when the Rebels
rallied for three more runs to just
one by the Cougars to take the win
9-5. AGWSR’s Brandon Johnson
connected for a double that knocked
in a run, and Jer Stull also collected
a hit and an RBI. Sully Hofmeister
and Dylan Heetland shared in the

AGWSR 2, Dike-New Hartford 0
Eiklenborg and Harberts held the
top-ranked team in Class 1A to two
runs on four hits, though even that
was not enough, as AGWSR's single
runs in the third and fifth innings
were just enough.
D-NH had four hits in the game,
including doubles by Mariah Danger
and Katelyn Soska. Eiklenborg
threw 4 2/3 innings and allowed just
one run on two hits while Harberts
threw the final 1 1/3 and allowed a
single run on two hits.

The Wolverines snapped their
25-inning scoreless streak with a
three-run fifth inning and that was
enough to support Dove's strong
pitching effort. The junior hurler struck out seven
and allowed just five hits while
throwing her third complete-game
shutout of the year.
The D-NH offense had eight
hits against A-P, including a pair of
Ttaylor Hedges singles. Hedges also
stole two bases.

strong pitching efforts while topping
AGWSR 7-1 Thursday and Aplington-Parkersburg 12-2 Friday.
D-NH hosted Gladbrook-Reinbeck Monday. It plays a doubleheader against Union Community
Wednesday at Riverfront Stadium
in Waterloo, hosts West Marshall

insurance tally in the sixth and broke
the game open with a four-run seventh.

The scoreboard showed nothing
but zeroes for four full innings, but
the Rebels put together a four-run
rally in the fifth frame to take a 4-0
lead. Grundy Center answered with
two runs in the sixth, but it was too
little too late, as G-R closed out the
final inning with one more run to
take the win 5-2.
Piper Johanns, Alyssa Mathews,
and Josie McMartin all went 2-for3 at the plate for the Spartans,
