Pool, camping open for holiday weekend
By ASHLEY SCHABLE
Guthrie Center Times staff
The Guthrie County Conservation Board announced Tuesday
that Lenon Mill Park in Panora
is back open for camping. The
upper camping pads at Nations
Bridge Park near Stuart are also
re-opened.
Guthrie County Conservation
director Joe Hanner said campers
should enjoy camping at both
sites this holiday weekend.
“The bottom campground at
Nations Bridge Park will remain
closed however for multiple repairs to the campground due

to the flooding,” Hanner said.
Hanner said due to major
flooding on the Raccoon River,
the campsites were temporarily shut down last week. Crews
worked to clean up and fix the
damage left by the flooding.
Severe thunderstorms barreled through the region last
Wednesday night, dropping golf
ball sized hail, threatening with
several tornadic funnel clouds
and knocking down tree limbs
with winds in excess of 70 miles
per hour. MidAmerican Energy reported 223 households in
Guthrie County were without
power during the storm. Most
customers had service returned
to them by the time the storms
exited the area. Guthrie County
and Adair Emergency Management Coordinator Bob Kempf
said the damage was minimal.
At the recommendation of
Kempf, the Guthrie County
Board of Supervisors declared
relay for life
a countywide state of emergency,
due to flooding caused by the
storms. Kempf says this could
open up the door for some residents to possibly receive assistance from the state’s Individual
Assistance Program.

A Bayard man died in a car crash this weekend.
As Colton Pulver, 24, was traveling west on
150th Street late on Saturday, his vehicle rolled
into a ditch, according to information from
the Iowa State Patrol.
Pulver, who had not been wearing a seat
belt, was ejected from the car. His car was the
only one involved in the crash.
After the accident was reported Sunday morning, officers arrived and pronounced Pulver
dead at the scene.
The Guthrie County Sheriff’s Office, Bayard
Fire and Rescue and Panora EMS assisted the
Iowa State Patrol with the accident.

County supervisors
approve city-county
policing agreement
By KILEY WELLENDORF
Guthrie Center Times staff
Closing out months of debate, the Guthrie
County supervisors approved an agreement
between the county sheriff’s office and the city
of Guthrie Center, voting with a slim margin
last Thursday.
The change will dissolve Guthrie Center’s police department and make the Guthrie County
Sheriff’s Office the city’s main law enforcement entity.
The agreement will create a four-year contract, called a 28E agreement, between the city
and county. The sheriff’s office will hire two
additional deputies as a result of the agreement, through which Guthrie Center will
pay the county $197,045.36 a year to pay for
the deputies’ salaries, benefits, vehicles and
equipment.
Three county supervisors — Tom Rutledge,
Everett Grasty and Clifford Carney — voted
for the agreement, while Supervisors Jerry
Caraher and Mike Dickson voted against the
change. The Guthrie Center City Council has
also voted to approve the contract.
“Apparently it’s positive, or else you wouldn’t be
here supporting it,” Grasty told Guthrie County
Sheriff Marty Arganbright during Thursday’s
meeting. “If this works, then it’s a really good
deal for the county.”

More than $60,000 raised so far

By ASHLEY SCHABLE | Guthrie Center Times staff
he rain let up and the sun shone just
in time for Guthrie County Relay for
Life to march to more than $60,000
in fundraising for the American
Cancer Society.
The community joined
together to celebrate cancer survivors, remember those lost, and fight
a disease that has taken
so much from so many.
The event culminated with
an 11-hour walk around
the Guthrie Center High
School track on Saturday,
June, 27.
“What an incredible day
we had,” said Kim Durst,
community manager, Relay for Life, Midwest Division.
Durst reported Guthrie
County has raised $60,000
so far this season, and do-
nations received through
Aug. 31 will count toward
the campaign. The final
total will be announced
this fall.
Durst said two teams Team Wichita and Breastfriends - each raised
$10,000 this year. “Their
tireless passion and hard
work in the fight against
cancer is incredible,” Durst
said.
The one-day event added a new tradition this year
with a special survivor dinner and entertainment inside the Guthrie Center
school. Annie Kemble, a

washington, d.c.
Douglas Burns, co-owner of
the Guthrie County newspapers, lobbied three members of
Iowa’s congressional delegation
and their staffs for a National
Wildlife Refuge designation for
Dunbar Slough during three
days of economic-development
sessions last week in Washington, D.C. focused on west-central Iowa.
Burns, a member of the Carroll Area Development Corporation, Greene County Development Corporation, Midwest
Partnership (Adair, Audubon,
Greene and Guthrie counties)
and the Orient-based Wallace
Centers of Iowa, spoke directly
with U.S. Sens. Joni Ernst and
Charles Grassley and Congressman Steve King, all Iowa Republicans, about the hunting,
conservation and economicdevelopment benefits a key federal designation for Dunbar
could provide for the region.
Burns joined King and a small
group of western Iowans for a
dinner in Northern Virginia,
just outside Washington, D.C.,
where a number of other business and farm issues were discussed.
“The Dunbar designation
would be a regional lift, creating
a waterfowl hunting mecca in
between Carroll and Jefferson
and Lake Panorama, all pros-

pering commercial centers,” Burns
s a i d . “O u r
part of the
state is well
positioned for
an attraction
like the Neal Douglas
Smith Nation- Burns
al Wildlife Refuge in central
Iowa. A National Wildlife Refuge
would fit beautifully with other
outdoor attractions as well as
the Wild Rose casino opening
in Jefferson and Carroll’s continuing draw for events and
visitors.”
Burns noted that a Dunbar
Slough refuge would be a perfect place for Ernst, King and
Grassley to interact informally
with high-profile political visitors who enjoy hunting.
“It’s really not that far from
Boone, Senator Ernst, where
your Roast & Ride is taking
place every year,” Burns said.
“Imagine the opportunities for
bringing Republican presidential candidates to Dunbar for
waterfowl hunting.”
The National Wildlife Refuge
designation could apply to both
Dunbar Slough and much of
the surrounding Southern Prairie Pothole Region — a 23,500acre area. The area stretches
roughly from south of Ralston
to Bayard.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service would designate
boundaries for additional land
that could be added to the refuge. Federal funds would be

Due to the heavy rains, the

last week. It re-opened on Saturday, June 27 at 1 p.m. Swimming lessons were made up
on Saturday morning.
Guthrie Center was to host
the conference swim meet for

to the flooding at Mitchell Park,
the conference meet has been

WINNING COLORS
OBITUARIES
Guthrie Center Times staff
During a recent “STEP
wave,” the Guthrie County
Sheriff’s Office made several arrests.
The office conducts the
wave as part of the state’s
Special Traffic Enforcement
Program. This most recent period ran from May 18 to May
31, according to information
from the sheriff’s office.
Officers made two operating while intoxicated arrests
during the period, one felony
arrest and three narcotics arrests, in addition to serving
three arrest warrants.
There were 12 speed citations and 153 warning issued
during the STEP wave. Other
citations and warnings were
given for seat belt, stop sign,
driver’s license, registration,
dark window, insurance and
other violations.
During the period, the office assisted 19 motorists and
investigated two accidents.
The STEP program sends
extra officers on patrol during
holiday weekends to gather
offense numbers for the state’s
records. The Guthrie County
Sheriff’s Office has participated in the program for years,
Sheriff Marty Arganbright said.
Speed citations were up
during this period; during
the last, over the St. Patrick’s
Day weekend, five speed citations were written.
For the most part, warnings
are issued during these periods, rather than citations,
officers have said.
“Hopefully, when you get
warned, you realize, ‘I need
to slow down,’” Arganbright
said in a past interview.

THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED
The date they planned for
their wedding was very strategic.
My uncle Paul and his partner, Dave, got married in Chicago this weekend, on the sixyear anniversary of the day
they started dating.
Their wedding fell on the
day before Chicago’s annual
Pride parade — a fun coincidence, but not something
they had planned, they said.
It also fell on the day after
the U.S. Supreme Court voted
to declare same-sex marriage
legal in all 50 states.
Definitely not something
they could have planned, but
boy, did it color the ceremony.
Same-sex marriage has been
legal in Illinois for more than
a year; as soon as that decision
was final, my uncles joke that
they didn’t waste any time —
Paul immediately proposed
to Dave.
That was celebration enough
for them, but finding out
that the Supreme Court had
reached its decision a day
before their wedding — and
their six-year anniversary —
brought a new dimension to
their day.
This wedding was pretty
typical in many ways. Goodlooking, happy spouses. Guests
in “fabulous” attire, per the
wedding invitation instructions. Dancing. Lots and lots
of champagne.
And it had its share of special moments.
A venue that was booked at
the last minute (after all, this is
two guys we’re talking about).
An officiant — the friend who
had introduced the couple —
who shed his share of tears during the ceremony; just about
everyone, the grooms included, followed suit (one attendee
joked later, “You guys really
know how to ruin a room.”).
The vows were sweet, read
off cards the grooms pulled
from their pockets. Dave’s vow
finished with the promise, “I
choose you.”
When Paul’s vow included
the same line halfway through,
he laughed through his tears
and swore he hadn’t stolen the
line, pointing to his card and
saying, “I promise, I wrote that
down.”
Throughout the night and
the following day, the Supreme
Court’s decision was on everyone’s minds.
Like the officiant: “I now
pronounce you married —
here, there and everywhere.”
And the chef, as he prepared
a brunch for the guests the
next morning: “They had
perfect timing with the Supreme Court. Who could have
planned that?”
These are my uncles — I
love them, and they love each
other. They weren’t trying to
make a point or contribute to
a national debate during their
wedding Saturday night. They
were celebrating their marriage with a small group of
friends and family.
It just so happened that all
over the country, people were
celebrating alongside them.

PRESS RELEASE:
“Zach Stone” Returns to Casey Fire Department Fundraiser Concert
Nashville, Tennessee – “Zach Stone” is coming back to Casey, Iowa on Saturday, July 11, to play a
fundraising show for the Casey Volunteer Fire Department. The Nashville-based performing and recording artist has roots here and the group loves the Iowa fans. Zach’s grandfather was Fire Chief in Casey
years ago. Zach says, “These people put their lives on the line to protect their communities. We all need
to support these folks.”
Lasy year, the band made the trip to Iowa following a show with Ricky Skaggs and Peter Frampton,
and was overjoyed at the hometown crowd. This year, the band arrives after a 7-week multi-state tour.
The goal for this year’s show is to draw folks from the greater area — Adair, Menlo, Stuart, Greenfield,
Guthrie Center and beyond — the same area these folks serve in times of emergency. Zach Stone’s producers are donating the show, so every dollar generated from the event goes to the Casey Fire Department. This is a chance to see an arena-level performance in your own back yard! If you want a sneak
peak, check out the videos on “YouTube: Zach Stone Country”. You can also link to zachstonecountry.
com for a taste of some original recordings.
Zach Stone invites everyone to attend Casey Fun Days on Saturday, July 11. The Beer Garden opens
at 7pm and the band kicks off at 9pm. Area newspapers will publish more information about Casey Fun
Days, but that Saturday night you and your friends will want to be at the Casey Fire Hall for some “HighOctane Country.”

Celebrate
July 4th
in Yale
Guthrie Center Times staff
July 4 is nearly here and that
means it’s time again for the
annual Yale celebration.
Friday will offer several new
events including the 5K fun run,
the brainchild of local resident
Emily (Fredrickson) Albers. It
starts at 5:30 p.m. with registration at 4:30 p.m.
From 7:00-10:00 p.m., vocal
artist Chad Elliott will provide
music in the park. Wine tasting and sales takes place from
7:00-9:00 there also. The Guthrie County fair queen will be
crowned at 8:00 p.m., in the
park, too.
Preceding all events Friday is
the softball tourney that starts
at 5:00 p.m. at the ball field and
could continue into Sunday.
Saturday offers the more traditional events. The parade begins at 11:00 a.m. preceded by
the bicycle poker run at 7:00
a.m., the omelet breakfast at
8:00 a.m. in the community
building and the NWFT Jakes
Aim Shooting Range east of the
fire hall at 9:00 a.m.
Pork loin sandwiches go on
sale after the parade in the
community building. The
horse show at the arena, the
car show on Main Street and
the balloon artist in the fire
hall all launch at noon. Also,
at noon the Crossword Clowns
will offer face painting, spin
art and sandy candy at the
fire hall.
Firing up at 1:00 p.m. on the
former school campus is the
hot rod garden pull and the
shooting range opens again
east of the fire hall.
A 2:30 p.m. horseshoe tourney by the round gym precedes
the kids 3:30 p.m. pedal pull
contest in front of the fire hall.
The grand raffle prize is $500.
The winner will be announced
at 8:30 p.m. at the ball field, the
site of fireworks which will go
off at dusk.
8 Boating
Tips for a Safe
Fourth of July
Use these tips to stay safe on
the water this holiday weekend
and all season long:
Alcohol and boating don’t
mix. Wind, sun, glare and heat
can enhance the effects of alcohol, hindering the operator’s
ability to make decisions.
Before leaving the house,
check trailer lights, wheel bearings and hitch.
Make sure there is a charged
fire extinguisher and horn/
whistle, a wearable life jacket
for everyone and a U.S. Coast
Guard-approved throwable
device onboard.
File a float plan with a friend:
include your destination, time
of return and type of boat.
Wear your lifejacket—it floats,
you don’t.
Inflatable lifejackets are light
weight, comfortable and USCG
approved. Wear it.
Take a boater education
course. It has valuable information and many insurance
companies offer a discount on
boat insurance.
Iowa’s top two safety violations are having inadequate life
jackets and operating too fast
and too close to other vessels.
MAIN STREETUPDATE
LOCALFOCUS
Compiled by the Guthrie Center Times staff
The Main Street
Approach
Changing attitudes is what
the Main Street program is
all about. It is an incremental process which, over time,
makes a large difference to
the communities it serves.
In Guthrie Center, the façade
renovations are done but
there is no finish line. The
50115 Fest is over but there
is no finish line. The downtown beautification efforts
are wonderful but there is no
finish line. There are many
projects completed and many
still in progress but there is
no finish line. We need to
keep the momentum going
and volunteer development
is critical. If everyone did
just one thing for Main Street
Guthrie Center just think of
what could be accomplished!
Even if you have limited time,
but want to help, contact us
and we will find the perfect
fit for you. If you are a member of a community group
that would like to learn more
about the Main Street program and the results we are
seeing in Guthrie Center, we
would love to come and share
with you.
Preserve Iowa
Summit
Becky Carico and Julie
Bailey from Main Street
Guthrie Center attended
the Preserve Iowa Summit last week in Winterset. What a great two days
learning more about historic preservation and creative
placemaking! The keynote
speaker was Ed McMahon,
a nationally known speaker
and authority on economic
development and land use.
His talk, “The Secrets of Successful Communities”, was
excellent and very thoughtprovoking. Other sessions
included: The Architectural
Language of Historic Commercial Buildings, Historic
Tax Credits, the Historical
Research Development Program grants, Approaches to
Masonry Restoration, Preserving Local Records and
many more.

“Water in the
Garden” Webinar
The second “Growing Season Webinar” being offered
this summer will be “Water
in the Garden” on Wednesday, July 8th, from 6-8 pm at
the Guthrie County Extension office. Learn various
water saving techniques to
apply to the garden and how
to incorporate creative water
features. If you are interested
in this webinar, please call
641-747-2276.
Keeping Roses
Healthy
If you have round holes
in the foliage of your roses,
most likely leafcutting bees
are responsible. Leafcutting
bees are beneficial as they are
pollinators. Damage to roses
and other plants is usually
minor and control efforts are
rarely justified or necessary.
If small green “worms” are
eating the foliage on your
roses, pick the roseslugs off
by hand and destroy. If you
have a large infestation, it
can be controlled with in-
secticides, such as insecticidal soap. Blackspot is a
common fungal disease of
roses. Blackspot develops by
warm, wet weather. Careful rose selection, cultural
practices and fungicide treatments can be used to control
blackspot on roses. Reduce
the amount of overwintering
fungi by carefully cleaning
up leaf debris in the fall.
Eggs and Poultry:
Safe to Eat
Avian influenza has been
in the news a lot lately. It does
not impact the foods we eat
and cannot be contracted
from properly cooked and
prepared meats. Be sure
you wash hands after handling raw eggs and poultry,
clean and sanitize cutting
boards, cook poultry to at
least 165 degrees, cook eggs
until the yolks and whites
are firm, and use pasteurized
eggs or egg products when
making recipes that call for
undercooked eggs, such as
Caesar salad dressing and
homemade ice cream.

Cancer survivors from Guthrie County walk a lap together during the Survivor Ceremony at Saturday’s Relay for Life event
in Guthrie Center. More than 30 survivors walked the lap while team members cheered them on around the track.
RELAY
FROM Page 1
Afterwards, the 41-year-old,
father of three, shared his story.
“I think I’ve been over-sold as a
speaker, but we’ll give it a shot,”
Wedemeyer began.
Wedemeyer, who lives in Johnston with wife Jennifer, sons Andrew and Luke and daughter
Alena, was diagnosed with colon cancer two and a half years
ago. He said his diagnoses came
with choices.
“You have to make choices and
I’m really proud of the choices
some of my team members
have made,” he said. “Each of
you here tonight is part of my
team. You’ve chosen to be here
to raise money for the Relay and
that money does a lot of things.
I can attest to that.
“It’s amazing what people
are doing right now in cancer
research - it’s because of funding and stuff like this and your
generosity. I want to thank you
for it.”
Wedemeyer touched on choosing faith or fear, but not both.
“If you chose fear it’s a tough
journey and if you chose faith
you can get through it,” he said.
Don’t waste your cancer, he
said.
“You waste your cancer if you’re
focusing more on statistics, focusing on numbers,” Wedemeyer
said. “I’m a banker, I’m a numbers
guy, but if you focus on numbers and not on God than you
are missing the point. It doesn’t
matter what the numbers say,
the only thing that matters in
the fight is that you want to be
educated and you want to do
what you can.”
Know what’s on your bucket
list, he said.
“If you aren’t doing what would
be on your bucket list for life than
you might want to do something
different,” Wedemeyer said.
A bucket list can include ballgames, track meets, and dance
recitals.
“They’re sitting around having coffee on the deck with your
wife, playing a round of golf with
buddies - that’s a bucket list,”
he said. “I’ve never wanted to
do anything else. I love going to
work, I enjoy the people I work
with and that’s what I want to

Center high school track in preparation for special luminary lighting ceremony during Saturday’s Relay for Life in

battling cancer during Relay For Life Luminaria ceremonies.
do.” Fill up your life with what
you want. Love more, hug more.
Do all that. That’s what is really
important, he said.
Wedemeyer said he focuses
on three things everyday: Being
spiritually strong, mentally strong
and physically strong.
“If I can focus on those three
things, no matter what treatment
I have to do, whatever comes in
life, I am ready,” he said. “I keep
it simple, that’s what I do.”
During a recent visit to the
Mayo Clinic for his treatment
plan, Wedemeyer said he was
prescribed by his doctor to walk
an hour every day.
“So I did for the last four
treatment cycles, so for a couple months,” he said. “I went
back and the scan showed it
was smaller. It’s powerful. You
make choices, you do what you
can do, and you leave the rest
up to the Lord.”
Wedemeyer walked his hour
Saturday, inviting others to join
him on the track.
“This is a win for today and
when you go to bed tonight, you
have won today,” he said. “That’s
really, really important to recognize each day. We have longterm
goals - my kids, my wife, family
and friends, but we have to win
today in order to get there.”
Sid Sutton also spoke about
the importance of prevention
and he thanked Guthrie County
Hospital for catching his cancer
Walking together during the Survivor’s Lap at Saturday’s
Relay for Life are (from left) Larry Kenyan, Flora Wise and
Ilene Tallman.
The Panorama High School cheerleaders lead the Relay for Life
crowd in a spirit cheer after the Survivor’s Lap Saturday
and taking excellent care of him.
“I laid in the sun, putting baby
oil on to get a tan,” Sutton said.
“Laying in the sun in Hawaii,
laying in the sun in the Phillipines, laying in the sun in the
Bahamas. I cam back to Guthrie
years later and found out I had
really abused myself.”
Sutton was diagnosed with
five different types of cancers,
each of them diagnosed at the
Guthrie County Hospital.
“I went there for a check up,
which is what everyone should
do,” he said. “If you can catch
these things in the early stages, you can be in good shape.
Early detection up here on the
hill has done a job for me and
I’m thankful to be here today.”
Besides themed laps, music,
dancing, food and luminaria
lightings were again all part of
Relay. Dozens dropped by for a
few hours while others stayed
all day.
Gravel Travel got everyone
dancing on the track and the
evening closed with a beautiful luminaria ceremony.
Durst said of the support in
Guthrie County to make Relay a
big success every year, “We can’t
thank the committee, volunteers
and the entire community for
their incredible support. We can’t
do this alone.”

enforcement, has said that the
contract will benefit the county
because of the addition of two
deputies. The change will fill
out the office’s schedule, allowing for 24/7 coverage. In
addition, the city is paying for
two full-time deputies but asking for only 60 hours of service
each week, allowing for a free
20 hours of additional coverage
for the county.
“When you’re 24/7, that
means you’ll have someone
already out in a car to take on
a call,” Arganbright said. “As
soon as a call comes in, they’ll
be able to respond.”
On the city’s end, contracting
with the sheriff’s office will remove the “revolving-door” problem Guthrie Center and other
small cities see, as officers join
police forces, go through training and leave soon after for jobs
in larger areas, Mayor Dennis
Kunkle has told the supervisors.
The change rids the burden of
covering the city’s law enforcement from Chief Rod Pavelka,
currently the only member of
Guthrie Center’s police department, a position that includes
substantial on-call time on top
of the more formal on-duty time.
“The problem with the city
is that when you’re on call with
two guys, there’s so much oncall time that it burns you out,”
Arganbright said. “We won’t have
that now.”
One of the main questions
the supervisors have asked
while considering the contract is why some of Guthrie
County’s smaller cities — Bagley,
Bayared, Casey, Jamaica, Menlo
and Yale — don’t pay to use the
BURNS

made available to help expand
and manage the refuge, which
would broaden further as private
landowners voluntarily became
involved.
“This is sure no federal land
grab, please understand that,”
Burns said. “This designation
has broad-based support in our
region and would celebrate a
quality of life and flourishing
culture of active outdoors living and hunting.”
Burns stressed that much of
the refuge’s land would remain
sheriff’s office’s services. At their
direction, Arganbright contacted the mayors and councils of
those cities to begin discussing
a change.
“We understand that small
town governments do not have
much surplus in their budgets,”
states the letter sent to each city.
“However, State of Iowa code
does indicate that municipalities are responsible for providing law enforcement services,
and are able to tax accordingly.”
The sheriff’s office already
has been going through a hiring
process to fill a county deputy
position approved by the supervisors during the county’s
last budgeting process. With the
agreement between the county
and Guthrie Center, the sheriff’s office will add three new
deputies.
Blake Michelsen of Belmond
will begin July 1 as a deputy, as
will Pavelka. All of the office’s
deputies were involved with the
hiring processes, Arganbright
said. Both officers started working with the department July 1.
A third deputy has been conditionally hired and dis expected
to begin mid-July.
“We had really good applicants,” Arganbright said.
The new deputies, who are
already trained officers, will go
through several weeks of training and should be included on
the sheriff’s office’s schedule by
the beginning of August. They
will bring the department’s officer total to nine, including the
sheriff, jailer and deputies.
“We’re really about where
we should be for our size of a
county,” Arganbright said. “We
just fell behind and we’ve been
there a long time; now we’re
getting up there to where we
should be.”
privately owned, with an emphasis on farming conservation
practices.
The current acres designated as Dunbar Slough fall within
western Greene County, but the
refuge’s expansion could eventually touch Guthrie and Carroll
counties as well.
Burns traveled to Washington,
D.C. with the Carroll Area Development Corporation’s Access
Washington delegation. Other
issues of interest to the area:
strong support from Carroll
delegation for the four-laning
of U.S. Highway 30 from Carroll to Jefferson and advocacy
for rural hospitals.
7 Tips to Prevent Drowning
Iowa DNR
Each year, drownings affect
a wide swath of outdoor users, from people swimming
in lakes and rivers, standing
on docks and wading in rivers
to warm-weather anglers, ice
anglers and boaters. As hotter
summers push more Iowans
toward water, drownings can
increase. Luckily, many of these
deaths are preventable.
The main causes of drowning are: lack of swimming ability, alcohol use, failure to wear
life jackets, lack of barriers to
unsupervised swimming areas,
lack of close supervision while
swimming, location and seizure
disorders. Heed these statistics
and top tips to stay water safe.
Some are common sense, but
others require skills or action
to avoid tragedy.
Become Proficient
Roughly one-third of Americans lack adequate swimming
skills. Swimming is a life-saving,
life-long skill worth knowing.

Wear Life Jackets
Based on U.S. Coast Guard
statistics, nearly 75 percent
of boating deaths result from
drowning. In nearly 90 percent
of those deaths, life jackets were
not worn. Wear properly sized,
U.S. Coast Guard-approved life
jackets regardless of the distance
traveled, boat size or swimming
ability. In 2007, 29 percent of
boating deaths nationwide
occurred on boats that were
anchored, docked, moored or
drifting.
Avoid Beer and Booze
Among adolescents and
adults, alcohol is involved in
up to 70 percent of water recreation deaths, nearly a quarter
of emergency room visits for
near-drowning and about onein-five boating deaths. Alcohol

judgment. Its effects are amplified by sun exposure and heat.
Stay sober near waterbodies.
Learn CPR
CPR from a bystander is proven to save lives and improve outcomes for near-drownings. The
quicker CPR begins, the better
the results. In the time needed
for paramedics to arrive, your
CPR skills could save a life or
prevent permanent damage. If
already certified, learn the latest techniques and refresh your
skills by recertifying. Inquire at
your local hospital, workplace
or doctor’s office for classes.
Have Eagle Eyes Close By
A responsible adult needs to
constantly watch young children
when swimming or playing near
water as drowning occurs quickly and quietly. Be close enough
to touch the child at all times.
A submerged person is often
difficult to find due to Iowa’s
low-visibility water.
Know the Terrain
Iowa rivers and lakes can
have sudden dropoffs, holes,
submerged shelves, foot holds
and rock ledges. Exercise caution
near all waters. Current strength
is often deceiving even for strong
swimmers.
Avoid Obvious Hazards
On rivers, stay clear of sweepers and strainers—fallen trees
and logs that lay across portions
of waterways where currents can
hold watercraft and occupants
underwater. Avoid dropoffs near

To Help a
Drowning Person:
To rescue a drowning person,
remember the Reach, Throw,
Row and Go steps from The
American Red Cross:
First try to reach victim with
whatever is available. Stay onshore and extend a branch, pole
or rope to pull victim ashore.
Second, try to throw a line,
buoy or floating object. Or remove your shirt, kneel down
while holding one sleeve and
throw out the other sleeve. Remove pants to tie one leg to
sleeve to increase reach.
Row, or use a watercraft, when
the victim is farther out. In a
canoe, kneel and paddle alongside so the victim can grasp the
side to tow to shore.
Go as a last resort only if the
first three steps can’t be used.
Keep eyes on victim and remove
shoes and excess clothes. Jump,
do not dive, into water. Carry a
shirt, pants or towel clenched in
your teeth. Swim near enough to
extend clothing and tow victim.
If you have nothing to extend,
approach victim from behind
and tow to safety by the hair.
Don’t allow victim to latch onto
you and never attempt a rescue
beyond your swimming ability.
