And May brings a string of final activities. First was Senior Class Awards night and the annual announcement of scholarships going to members of the graduating class. They include awards from state and national organizations, but far and away the most numerous are locally backed and supported – scholarships made in the names of now-two and three generations of school supporters. This year the awards totaled over 70. Many are made in support of students who plan to go on to college in particular fields of study, others are made by donors supporting young people from the various South Hardin communities. Awards night was Tuesday evening and the following morning was the annual service-learning project of the district. Students in the high school are dispatched to perform a number of community service jobs, both to public and private interests. (continued on page 2) Awards night highlight is always the community-sponsored scholarships. Newly named, the Tiger Scholarship Foundation, (before the Dollars for Scholars) this year’s recipients include from the left, Laura Campbell, Josh Brown, Kristin Mathis, Sean Rogers, Rachel Miller, Ben Westendorf, Amber Heubner, Logan Roling, Emily Mitchell, Michaela Friest, Jon Weber, Andrea Steiner, Kayla Anderson, Megan Carr and Lydia Rose. More on page 2 and the full report on students and awards comes in the Tuesday Ledger. Grundy Hospital initiates final construction push by Rick Patrie News Editor GRUNDY CENTER - It will have been almost 15 years of construction, renewal and expansion, by the time the Grundy County Memorial Hospital celebrates its 65th year in 2017. The finale of sorts comes this year with a project that will address structural needs of the original ‘heritage’ building on site. The Grundy County Board of Supervisors approved a key piece of the project’s financing recently, floating a $5 million general obligation urban renewal bond issue. At the same time, the hospital’s Board of Commissioners has just awarded construction bids. Hopes are that the final phase – phase three of the long, long initiative – will be done in time for the 65-year milestone. Phase three will rejuvenate the oldest 1952 portion of the hospital, which once was the hospital, but nowadays is, in large part, home to Newsbriefs Boy Scout Troop 334 Brunch May 15 Boy Scout Troop 334 will be having a Pancake/Omelet Brunch on Sunday, May 15 at the Kiwanis Building at the Hardin County Fairgrounds from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Free will donation.

(continued on page 4) administrative services. Patient visits to the hospital’s Specialty Clinic have steadily climbed over the past ten years, and the project increases clinic space by fifty percent to accommodate additional medical specialties, as well as providing increased privacy in the registration area. The clinic and a new Radiology Women’s Center will expand into space now used for administrative and support functions of the hospital. The renovation project provides a new roof for the original two-story portion of the hospital, as well as new windows and new mechanical systems for the 1952 building, which has not been used for patient care since a new inpatient area opened in 2009. All administrative and support functions will move to the second floor once the project is complete in mid-2017. “It’s an important project in the life of our hospital,” says Jennifer Havens, CEO. “When the hospital began a facility improvement Corn planting nears finish By Rick Patrie News Editor HARDIN COUNTY – This year, the corn planting phase of spring work sort of came and went without making a ripple. None of the excessive rains of past years. No disturbances. “Sort of a mellow spring,” says Hardin County Extension’s Darwin Miller. He says one of the few concerns at the outset had been how the moderate winter might impact the soil bed. But the corn planting essentially came off without a hitch, he says. Extension reports that just about all the corn was is in the ground here (continued on page 3) plan more than ten years ago, the decision was made to retain the original building as new patient care additions were completed. Now it’s time to finish what was started by giving the original building a muchneeded upgrade,” explains Havens. “The project also provides space to expand the Specialty Clinic, which meets the needs of our patients by giving them convenient access to a variety of specialty providers.” Havens says the $7.5 million project will be financed by the bond sale, $2.5 million in hospital cash reserves, and private fundraising. Construction manager is Graham Construction, while Cardinal Construction is the general contractor. The renovation will be accomplished in three phases so that hospital operations will not be disrupted during the project. Grundy County Memorial Hospital is a 25-bed critical access hospital affiliated with UnityPoint (continued on page 3) Fest builds a loyal following by Rick Patrie News Editor HARDIN COUNTY– Six years ago who would have guessed that one of the best attended fairground attractions would be a festival devoted to providers of social services. But Family Fest has become a hit with young families and routinely fills the community building in the early days of May. This marked the sixth year of the project, which brings together all kinds of providers for young families with children. This year there were 26 service agencies and a few others there just for food and the fun. And close to 400 came calling to get acquainted with health care, childcare, education and other offerings. (continued on page 3) Tammy Hansen of Marshalltown marketing wooden roses at the 6th annual Family Fest. Mary Bendixen moves on from E-NP By Rick Patrie News Editor E L D O R A - N E W PROVIDENCE – “People say they will miss me, but I think they will miss Jack more.” Mary Bendixen, principal of the E-NP Elementary School for the last four years, says she takes a great deal of satisfaction with the accomplishments of the last four years, particularly the team ones involving all the staff. She is leaving to be closer to home, and even then the decision was a tough one. And she is, much to the whole school’s sadness, taking Jack with her. Jack is the Bendixen family dog, who not long after his owner took the job here, joined her in the halls of the grade school. She will tell you he is a wonder. Everyone, children and staff seem to be in a better frame of mind when he is present. Frames of mind are so often key in an elementary school she says. You would think that the big kids would have the bigger problems, but it’s the little ones who so often bring their troubles to school. That was probably my biggest learning experience here. Just how much time and effort teachers expend getting children ready to face the day. The dog helped, and a lot of special initiatives did too. Bendixen was hardly new to the situation. She had taught the younger grades twenty years herself. Six years in Anamosa and then worked in a variety of administrative positions, including one as an assistant principal. In all it was 30 years in education. Now the family is moving to her husband’s home area and she is (continued on page 6) Mary Bendixen, the kids and Jack.

The specialists see patients in the Grundy bonds will be repaid by the hospital Center clinic, and more than 7,000 (continued from page 1) patient visits are recorded each year. There was always an understanding that the old 52 portion of the hospital would eventually become a focus. The hospital does say that with the constant changes in health care, and the likely trend toward less inpatent and more out-patient care, there will always have to be the potential for future initiatives, but for now the Grundy Center Hospital meets the needs of the moment. The project is expected to take 18 months to complete, which means the renovated portion will likely be complete as the hospital marks its 65th anniversary in 2017. e locally, pretty much in line with the rest of the state. Miller said the best guess was that at early week the beans were likely 50 percent in the ground. At week’s beginning some corn was already emerging. Miller says there were reports of farmers out planting as early as April 10 or 11, though the bulk would wait until the week of the 18th, with an eye toward the window for crop insurance coverage. Miller says it’s becoming an old observation, but still very true: With the equipment at hand nowadays for most area farmers it’s not unusual to plant 150 acres a day. “All and all it was a very moderate and smooth Spring. Statewide observations: Iowa Secretary of Agriculture Bill Northey today commented on the Iowa Crops and Weather report released by the USDA National Agricultural Statistical Service. The report is released weekly from April through October. “Farmers continue to make planting progress between the rains and now 80 percent of corn and 29 percent of soybeans are in the ground. Eighty percent of the corn crop has been planted, a day ahead of last year, and 8 days ahead of the 5-year average. IOWA PRELIMINARY WEATHER SUMMARY By Harry Hillaker, State Climatologist, Iowa Department of Agriculture & Land Stewardship The past reporting week began with cooler than normal weather prevailing in most areas through mid-week. High temperatures on Sunday (1st) were mostly in the forties while sixties prevailed in most areas from Monday through Wednesday. Light freezes were recorded in scattered areas on Monday (2nd), Tuesday (3rd) and Thursday (5th) mornings. Warmer air arrived in northwestern Iowa on Thursday and statewide on Friday. Friday was easily the warmest day of the week with highs in the eighties over most of Iowa. Slightly cooler weather returned for the weekend. Temperature extremes for the week ranged from Thursday morning lows of 30 degrees at Cresco and Elkader to Friday afternoon highs of 90 degrees at Guttenberg and Marion(thefirst90degreereadings in the state this year). Temperatures for the week as a whole averaged a bit warmer than usual over the west and a little below normal over the Family Fest services fair builds a loyal following Getting acquainted with area providers (continued from page 1) And from Ackley came Skycone, a purveyor of soft serve ice cream from a cone shop you have to see to believe. A good measure of the crowd at the fairgrounds: One hundred and ninety cones served, and 30 percent of the proceeds turned back to organizers of the fest to help with next year’s effort. The idea of a festival organized around human services might have seemed real novel six years ago, but organizer Carrie Kube says that nowadays it is actually quite common. Most counties have something similar. A short time ago another fair of its kind took place in Iowa Falls, dedicated to preventive services designed to stem child abuse. The festivals have young families in mind, in particular. Young families which have both parents working, too busy to spend the time getting acquainted with all the services available to them. Meanwhile, at the same time they are are often families making their way without the help of grandmothers and grandfathers who no longer live nearby. east with a statewide average of 0.6 degrees above normal. Rain fell nearly statewide on Sunday (1st) afternoon and evening with the greatest amounts falling over east central Iowa. Monday, Wednesday and Thursday were dry statewide. There were a few light showers and thunderstorms over extreme eastern Iowa on Tuesday night. Scattered light rain fell over much of northern Iowa late Friday night into Saturday. Light showers and thunderstorms were also scattered across the southwestern two-thirds of the state on Saturday (7th) night into Sunday morning. Weekly rain totals varied from only sprinkles at Sidney, Shenandoah and Lake Mills to 0.86 inches at Davenport. The statewide average precipitation was 0.24 inches, or about one-fourth of the weekly normal of 0.98 inches. Soil temperatures at the four inch depth were averaging in the midfifties to low sixties as of Sunday (8th). 2016 Hardin County Fair 4-H & FFA Fair Book HARDIN COUNTY – The Hardin County Fair book will not be printed and published in the newspaper.

ABATE of Iowa has a district headquarters here in Eldora and the membership can be seen gathering on a lot of weekends to come. But May has a special connotation for the group. ABATE. One of its big reasons for being is to keep the rest of the driving public aware of motorcycles on the road. Getting a little too relaxed about sharing the road can have sad consequences, and this is the month the cyclist group tries to engage the public and the media in a special campaign to be aware, during the heavy cycling traffic months of the summer and those year round. This motorcycle enthusiasts group from this district travelled to the State Capitol and met with Governor Terry Branstad who signed on to the effort too. Members here urge everyone to do their part to remember motorcycles are among them out there on the busy highways and in the city streets, too. Laney Jones gave a presentation.

Dunn and the entire field of 36 golfers battled wet and windy conditions over the 18-holes. Dunn ended second-best by onestroke to Matt Roeding of Grundy Center/Gladbrook-Reinbeck, 78 to 79. Both carded a 40 first nine followed by a 38 for Roeding and 39 for Dunn. The South Hardin junior, who was the conference champion as a freshman, carded 10 pars. Roeding played the sixth-slot for GC/GR. Grundy Center/Gladbrook-Re- inbeck dominated the conference meet, claiming the team title by 30-swings with a 322 and had five of the nine all-conference slots. The AGWSR boys edged host BCLUW for second, 352 to 354, while South Hardin settled for fifth at 362, just behind West Marshall’s 360. The Cougars, without an all-conference linkster, had four finish in the top 20 led by Jay Janssen 11th and Alex Hames 13th. Janssen fired an 86 with rounds of 46-40 and Hames 87 with nines of 45-42. Jacob Schachterle followed with an 89 for 16th and Keon Huffman 90 for 17th. Schachterle opened with a 39, but closed with a 50, and Huffman went 45 twice. Non-scoring were 97s for Mike Krull (48-49) and Tyler Rose (53-44). “We hoped to give GC/G-R a run for the title, but that did not happen. We will take second and build on it for the sectional meet,” commented AGWSR coach Brad Hames. “Jay continues to play well; very consistent. Alex played pretty well; he had two bad holes that ended up costing him a medal. Jacob had a great first round and really struggled on the second nine, and Keon played steady all day,” Hames added. The Comets’ tandem of Lane Stanley and Josh Sharp earned allconference honors. Stanley finished fourth, carding an 81 and Sharp ninth with an 84. Stanley had the clubhouse lead after nine with a 38 followed by 43, and Sharp covered the home course twice at 44-40. “The weather conditions were tough, but they were tough for everybody. Lane has really been playing well lately; it was great to see him keep his concentration for 18- holes. I was proud of the way Josh (Sharp) came back from his first nine and got it back on track on the back nine. He’s had a great career as a Comet and it was nice to see him make all-conference,” stated BCLUW coach Heath Rhinehart. Josh Myers and Brad Barkema added top 20 placings for BCLUW with Myers hitting 93 for 18th and Barkema 96, tying for 19th. By nines Myers went 46-47 and Barkema 50-46. Non-counting were Keegan Rhinehart 99 (52-47) and Jonny Neff 115 (58-57). Dunn’s second led South Hardin and continued his stellar spring that has four medalist honors and three runner-up medalist in 10 meets. “Ted had a nice round. Runner-up medalist in this conference is a great honor,” South Hardin coach Matt Thompson said. “We shot about our normal team score. Most kids improved from the front nine,” he added. Hunter Welch was second for the Tigers and tied for 14th at 88, going 47-41. Rounding out the foursome were Tom Haywood 96 with back-to-back 48s and Cade Prosser 99 with nines of 49-50. Non-scoring were Quinton Lake 101 (51-50) and Spencer Higgason 120 (57-63). Along with Roeding, all-conference from GC/G-R were Jesper Holke-Farman third at 79, Cam Murphy fifth and Jake Bangasser sixth at 82 each and Jared Freeman eighth at 84. Murphy was last season’s league runner-up. The area boys will take part in sectional golf meets today (Friday). South Hardin will take part in a power-packed Class 2A meet at the Legend Trail Golf Course in Parkersburg, BCLUW will host a Class 2A meet at Conrad’s Oakwood Golf Course and AGWSR plays in a Class 1A meet at Belle Plaine.

Tigers’ VanderWilt, Mathis all-conference; BCLUW second by Scott Bierle Sports Editor GRUNDY CENTER- South Hardin’s Hanna VanderWilt and Kristin Mathis along with Laura Anderson of BCLUW bagged all-conference honors on a water-logged Town & Country Golf Course here Monday during the North Iowa Cedar League West Conference Meet. The threesome battled through rainy and windy conditions to finish in the top nine of the 36-golfer field. VanderWilt, a junior, was one of five gals to break triple-digits, carding a 98 for fourth. She had a first nine of 48 followed by a 50. Mathis, a senior, took ninth with rounds of 51 and 50. Anderson, a sophomore, rallied going from a 55 to 46 and scored 101 to end eighth, edging Mathis on a cardback. Host Grundy Center/GladbrookReinbeck stole the show, capturing the team crown and had five all-conference golfers. The Spartans scored a 386 to better the field by 33-strokes, while Kate Ross was meet medalist, shooting 49-44 for 93 and Abby Hockemeyer runner-up medalist, going 48-94 for 97. The BCLUW girls earned second in the team race, winning a tiebreaker with West Marshall after both booked four-gal, 18-hole scores of 419. South Hardin and AGWSR were second division as the Tigers scored 449 for fifth and the Cougars were sixth at 457. Rounding out the all-conference list were Reagan Derrick third at 97, Sarah Hockemeyer fifth at 98 and Jill Itzen sixth at 100, all from GC/G-R, and West Marshall’s Madi Stalzer seventh at 100. After Anderson, the BCLUW foursome counted Mikaela Simpson 102, going 51-51, Madison Trinkle 107 with rounds of 54-53 and Mackenzie Trinkle with nines of 57-52 for 109.

Bri Teckenburg was a non-counting 117 (61-56). “The girls all played very well considering the conditions. We let the weather get to us a little the first nine, but all the girls came back on the second nine and focused well,” stated BCLUW coach Stacy Simpson. For South Hardin, Emily Klingel chipped in a 112, going 55-57, for a third score and the fourth counter was Sybil Below at 138 with nines of 72-66. Non-scoring were Ashley Heubner 143 (75-68) and Sammy May 146 (76-70). “Although the weather was poor, the girls stepped up and played solid golf as a team,” South Hardin coach David Akers said. “Hanna VanderWilt and Kristin Mathis really fought through the day, stayed away from big numbers and came away with conference medals.
