The Grundy Register Serving Grundy County since 1928 Thursday, July 9, 2015 Grundy Center, Iowa www.TheGrundyRegister.com Volume 91 – Number 28 $1.00 Newsstand Price Local church looks to ‘Change a Grant leads to new drug disposal box Child’s Story’ with new lending library Sheriff ’s Department, Public Health, GCMH combine on project GRUNDY CENTER — Grundy County announced recently that it has been awarded a grant from CVS Pharmacy to install a drug collection unit at the Grundy County Sheriff’s office. The unit will provide residents with a safe and environmentally responsible way to dispose of unwanted, unused or expired medication, including controlled substances. According to Grundy County Sheriff’s Deputy Zach Tripp, the new unit is intended to reduce the amount of unneeded medicine in residents’ homes and decrease prescription drug abuse, which has soared in recent years, especially among teenagers. More than 70 percent of teenagers say it is easy to get prescription drugs from their parents’ medicine cabinets, according to a 2014 Partnership for Drug-Free Kids study. The new unit will also help Grundy County prevent the contamination of local landfills and water supplies from unused medication. Tripp said safely disposing of unused medication is critical to protecting our children and our environment “Grundy County is proud to partner with CVS/pharmacy and we thank them for their commitment to help residents reduce the amount of unneeded medicine in our community,” he said. The new Drug Collection Unit represents one of 1,000 Units CVS/ pharmacy and The Medicine Abuse Project (MAP), a five-year initiative of The Partnership for Drug-Free Kids, are providing across the country. This innovative donation program is the largest retail pharmacy effort of its kind to date and supports MAP’s goal to prevent a half million teenagers from abusing prescription medication by the year 2017. Grundy County’s new Drug Collection Unit site is open to the public 24 hours per day, seven days per week. Drugs can be dropped off with no questions asked. Grundy County residents and CVS/pharmacy customers can also inquire about the Medication Disposal for Safer Communities Program at the toll free phone number 1-866-559-8830 or visit www.cvs.com/safercommunities. By JOHN JENSEN The Grundy Register GRUNDY CENTER — Phil Dicks, pastor at the Grundy Center United Methodist Church had a challenge. At the Annual Conference earlier this year, Bishop Julius C. Trimble, who oversees the Iowa Area of the United Methodist Church, asked Dicks and other area ministers to launch a creative program for Iowa children called “Change a Child’s Story.” The program outlined by Trimble was for local churches to give time to read to children and give them books to read. “This is something that we all can be a part of — changing a child’s life by helping a child to be able to read,” Trimble wrote. “It’s not about politics. It’s about a passion for children and closing the gap between those who are in poverty and those who succeed in the educational journey of life.” Seeking a local angle, Dicks met with Bobbi Jo Paige, the church’s lay delegate to the Conference, about creating a small lending library that could make books available to children year-round. “A great example of this was from (church member) Denny Dolmage who several years ago created a small lending library outside of his house that allowed children or adults to take a book or leave a book and make it a hub for sharing books for people to read,” Dicks said. “It met with great success. The thought was to create a model of such a mini-lending library for our community ... located at our church and available 24/7. Simple.” Dolmage designed the library based on the look of a typical Iowa church. He used a picture of the former United Methodist Church in Morrison as a guide and included elements of the first Grundy Center UMC building. “He then actually built the model church complete with stained glass windows,” Dicks said. The local pastor said there is a major difference between the Lending Library and the public li- brary located next door. “The difference of this plan ... is that children can keep these books or bring books from home to gift out (or lend) to other kids,” he said. “It is a great plan of recycling of good books without the accountability for returning. It is all based on, 1) take a book, 2) bring a book to share or 3) take a book and leave a book. Simple. Free library and encourages reading.” The new lending library has been placed on the south side of the church near the entrance to its main parking lot. GRUNDY CENTER — The Grundy Center Main Street Committee is seeking one and all to be part of a photo that will be part of the group’s presentation to the Main Street Iowa Board of Directors, which determines which cities receive Main Street Iowa status and potential funding. At 5:30 p.m. Friday, just after the Felix Grundy Festival parade, Main Street Committee members are asking everyone to stick around for the photo, which will be shot in front of the Center Theatre. If Grundy Center is selected as a Main Street community, it will lead to access to consultant services provided by the Iowa Department of Economic Development’s Main Street Program that will help sustain and grow Grundy Center’s main business corridor. The designation could help restore buildings and attract new businesses, shoppers and visitors the the community. The photo will be taken from overhead by photographers in bucket trucks. It will take about 15 minutes. Dennis Dolmage designed the Methodist Church’s new Lending Library to look like a traditional Iowa church. It is similar to one he put at his own home a couple of years ago. The library will be located on the south side of the church near the parking lot.

Grundy Center Community School District named finalist for America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education grant ST.LOUIS — Grundy Center Community School District has been announced as a finalist in this year’s America’s Farmers Grow Rural Education program, sponsored by the Monsanto Fund. Grundy Center Community School District is among the top districts in Iowa in the running for grants of $10,000 and $25,000. Earlier this year, farmers nominated their local public school districts to apply for Grow Rural Education grants. Once nominated, school districts were eligible to complete applications requesting funding for a specific math or science project that will enhance curriculum in their district. This year’s applications were again very competitive. A panel of math and science educators evaluated all of the applications and selected the strongest submissions as finalists. “Making it to this stage of the process is a great accomplishment that requires a lot time and effort,” said Michelle Insco, Monsanto Fund program officer. “There is still more to do before we announce our winning school districts, but this year’s finalists submitted impressive applications. The Monsanto Fund is grateful for their focus on improving math and science opportunities for their students.” Next, finalist applications will be reviewed by the Grow Rural Education Farmer Advisory Council. The Advisory Council, made up of farmers from across the U.S., will select this year’s winners, who will be announced in early August. Last year, Grow Rural Education invested $140,000 in public school districts across Iowa to improve math and science curriculum. Since 2012, Iowa school districts have received $470,000 through the program. Projects funded over the last four years have helped school districts across the U.S. upgrade technology and scientific lab equipment, build greenhouses and outdoor classroom learning environments, update teacher and curriculum development and other math and science related initiatives. 3 Grundy Register Bulletin Board Roger Allen Heikens Roger passed away peacefully June 30, 2015, at Spartanburg Regional Hospice Home, after a 14 year battle with cancer.

From The Cheap Seats I’ve been really fortunate through my life to see a lot of our great nation. With family in New England and Florida, having lived in both the Great Lakes region and the rural Midwest plus the opportunity to visit places like Hawaii and Colorado, I’ve seen more of the country than most 45-year-olds. Over the weekend I had a chance to see another part of the country that I had heard a lot about from several friends in the past, northern Minnesota. Over the past few years I have made a point of taking a long weekend or two during the summer to visit someplace that I have either enjoyed in the past or that I have wanted to see. Two years ago that was a place in Illinois that I have enjoyed in the past and last year it was a similar By JOHN JENSEN place in Ohio. With the significant and unexpected changes in my personal life this year, the trips have become more fun and meaningful. One of the things I learned quickly about Lynnette was that her favorite place in the world was her parents’ cabin in northern Minnesota. As she described it I could tell it was as close to Heaven for her that she’ll ever get on earth. As I listened to her I knew this was a place that, if things worked out, I would like to visit someday. Someday proved to be over the long holiday weekend. I had pointed to this weekend as a possible time to visit, simply because I knew it was a time when Lynnette was always there and that the holiday fell at a time that was somewhat convenient to be gone from work. It was a trip that I knew I would be making for awhile and one that I was looking forward to just as much as the ones I took to Chicago and Washington, D.C. in June. Their cabin seems to be about the right distance from home. It’s far enough away that it felt like I was on vacation yet close enough that I could drive up early in the morning and still have most of the day to enjoy. On the way up, seemingly just past Minneapolis, I saw the topography change from the corn and soybean fields that are so familiar to us in Iowa to a landscape that reminded me a lot of the area we lived in Michigan when I was a little boy. Gone were the rolling hills and endless waves of grain; in their place was a much flatter landscape featuring many of Minnesota’s 10,000 lakes often separated by lush forests of tall pine trees. An added bonus for me was that the highway I took paralleled the former Northern Pacific (now B.N.S.F.) Railroad main line. As I negotiated my way to a place tucked away enough that you would have to know where you were going to find it, I was greeted by Lynnette and her mom ... and was so interested in what I was seeing for the first time that I said hello and then drove on without bothering to pick them up. I was nearly a block away before I realized what I had done ... heck of a nice guy I am! What I found at their home was a large but peaceful lake that has enough size to be a popular place for water skiers yet one that has enough nooks and crannies that fishing is also a popular activity. Bird watching is popular among local residents, with bald eagles, blue herons, loons, ospreys, Baltimore orioles, hummingbirds, goldfinches all among birds I saw during my few-day visit. A highlight for me was seeing the origin of the Mississippi River, which is located in Itasca State Park a few miles from where Lynnette’s parents’ cabin is located. As you may have heard, the river starts about the same width as our Black Hawk Creek. It’s hard to fathom that until you have seen it with your own eyes. I stand a touch taller than 5-foot-7 and am sure I could have touched both banks of the river had I lay across it. The Fourth of July is a big deal in the town nearest where their home is, and part of the celebration is a parade of boats along the banks of the lake. Thirty boats, maybe more, were decorated in red, white and blue with most The Grundy Register Phone: (319) 824-6958 Fax: (319) 824-6288 To contact publisher or submit an advertisement: [email protected] To submit a news story: [email protected] To submit an obituary: [email protected] To submit an advertisement: [email protected] Official Paper of Grundy Center and Grundy County.

This mother loon is pictured with a pair of hatchlings from earlier this spring. people aboard waving flags. It was unlike anything I’d seen before. A big part of this trip was meeting members of Lynnette’s family, many of whom I had heard about but never met. Her brother, who had flown in from California only a couple of days before my arrival, greeted me with a great homemade smoothie made from a variety of fruits and vegetables. Any time you meet people for the first time, particularly when they are friends or family of somebody you have feelings for, it can be daunting. I’ve been doing that a lot the past few weeks and by the end of my third day in Minnesota I was pretty overwhelmed. Everybody was extremely nice and conversation was easy, but I confess that by the time I left I was ready to see people I know a little better. The only bad part of this trip was coming home. I get very emotional at goodbye time, to the point where I usually leave in the middle of the night so that nobody sees my tears. That wasn’t an option Sunday, as I wanted to attend church with the family before leaving. Let’s just say it went just as I feared it might ... As I prepared to pull out from the church I noticed someone standing behind the car staring. It turns out that Grundy Center kindergarten teacher Abby Hendershot is the lady’s granddaughter and that she recognized Grundy County on my license plate. Small world, yes? • • • With Felix Grundy Festival weekend upon us, be sure to get out in support of Grundy Center’s largest community event. This will be my sixth Felix Grundy Fest and it has come to be a weekend that I look forward to. From my work with the paper (mainly photos) to the volunteer stuff I do all weekend with Lions and Dollars for Scholars, I stay hopping. This year I am also helping with the spelling bee. These events are fun for me, as they get me out into the community to see people. For the most part I have the whole weekend down to a science of where I need to be when. This year I want to point out a new event that our Grundy Center Lions Club is doing, as we’ll be screening for KidSight. If you have children or grandchildren under the age of 5, bring them to the Grundy County Courthouse between 2 and 3:30 p.m. and club members will take a picture of their eyes with our special camera. The picture is then transmitted to Iowa City, where they will be reviewed by an expert. If issues are found, you will be contacted with information about the need for a formal vision screening by an optometrist. The Lions will also be out during the Operation Threshold Family Fair from 11 to 1 p.m., promoting areas that we support. This would also be a great time to enquire about becoming a member of the Grundy Center Lions Club. Lions are the world’s largest civic organization. Be sure to bring the children out to meet our friendly Lions mascot as well. I would also like to invite you to the annual Dollars for Scholars Breakfast and All-School Reunion from 7:30 to 10 a.m. This is our only major fund raiser. All of the money after expenses goes to scholarships for Grundy Center High School’s graduating seniors. To The Editor, As the community of Grundy Center looks forward to its annual celebration this weekend, there is potential for another celebratory occasion in our near future. A dedicated committee of volunteers has spent the last 18 months preparing an application for the Main Street Iowa Board of Directors with the goal of being chosen as one of its communities. If Grundy Center were to be selected, it would mean access to a variety of consultant services provided by the Iowa Department of Economic Development’s Main Street Program to sustain and grow Grundy Center’s Main Street. This designation has the potential to help us restore our buildings, attract new businesses and more shoppers and visitors to Grundy Center. The recent support from building and business owners has been outstanding and now we are seeking your support. You can have a part in this historic opportunity by joining your friends, family, neighbors for an All-Community photo on Saturday, July 11 at 5:30 p.m. at the Center Theater following the Grand parade. Our goal is for the Main Street selection committee to see and feel how Grundy Center can come together in support of their businesses and community as hundreds of residents line up in front of the Center Theater. This video will play an important role in the Main Street Committee’s presentation in August. It is just 15 minutes of your time and it will have a huge impact on the success of the application and Grundy Center’s future. See you at the Theater -- There will be a large boom truck with camera awaiting us!

This movie is rated PG-13 for language, running approximately 120 minutes in length. Held-over at 7:30 is the #1 movie in the nation, Jurassic World 2D, starring Chris Pine. This movie is rated PG-13 for violence, running approximately 120 minutes in length. There will be no weekend matinees this week. *FRIDAYS ARE 50 cent Fridays at the Center Theatre! attend a movie on Friday evening and receive your choice of MEDIUM popcorn or any drink for just 50 cents!* Love and Mercy presents an unconventional portrait of Brian Wilson, the mercurial, songwriter and leader of The Beach Boys. Set against the era-defining catalog of Wilson’s music, the film intimately examines the personal voyage and ultimate salvation of the icon whose success came at extraordinary personal cost. Brian Wilson (John Cusack), the leader of the Beach Boys, wrote more than 15 top 40 hit singles including the ground breaking 1966 “Pet Sounds” album before suffering a nervous breakdown during the making of its follow-up album “Smile.” He struggles with mental illness, but Brian manages to persevere as an artist with the love and support of his wife Melinda. Due to great audience response, the Center Theatre will continue to hold Jurassic World, but this week it will be shown in 2D only. In the new film, 22 years after the events of Jurassic Park, Isla Nublar now features a dinosaur adventure park, Jurassic World, as originally envisioned by John Hammond. This new park is owned by the Patel Corporation. Owen (Chris Pratt), a member of Jurassic World's on-site staff, conducts behavioral research on the Velociraptors. Jurassic World's attendance rates begin to decline and a new attraction, created to re-spark visitor interest, backfires. When the massive and mysterious Indominus rex stages an escape and disappears into the jungle, order turns to mayhem and guests turn into prey. Dinosaurs escape into the open, skies and water to engage in an all-out war for survival and no corner within the world's greatest theme park is safe anymore. Don’t miss the fun and excitement of the reigning #1 movie in the country, Jurassic World 2D, this week at the Center Theatre!

Again this year, Peoples Savings Bank contributed to success by sponsoring along with the help from Scheels, All Sports, and Blain’s Farm & Fleet. Twenty-seven people of all ages registered for the event. Their five dollars didn’t guarantee them catching a fish but they were guaranteed a door prize! And as it has been for most fishing derby dates, this one again included rain. The day started out nice at 6 a.m. but radar showed a storm moving in from the West. And sure enough, the ominus clouds that began to gather produced a downpour but for a relatively short amount of time. Shortly, folks were back out wetting their lines again. The second round of rain saw some of the people in boats already plenty wet so many of them just stayed out and weathered the storm. As you might expect, it is hard to dampen the spirits of a fisherperson when they are doing what they like best. Whether you were fishing from a boat or the shore, it was an enjoyable time. Most were registered in the event. Some were just out chasing the elusive big one and enjoying the day. At the 1 PM close of the derby, the following anglers won their respective largest fish categories: Bass – Dan Schipper, Catfish – Rafael Morales, Panfish – Kevin Johnson. Rafael Morales won the catfish category with a respectable 4.60 pounds. Rafael is a very well-known face at Grundy County Lake logging countless hours with a line in the water. Dan’s bass weighed 1.71 pounds. Kevin Johnson’s panfish won with a weight of .70 pounds. Kevin is no stranger to the fishing derby winner’s circle having won largest bass and largest catfish in previous years’ events. This year, it completed Kevin’s attempt to win his own “triple crown”. Each of the winners received an impressive fishing gear package tailored to their fish category which included rod, reel and other gear. Everyone went away with a door prize and good memories. That’s what the fishing derby is all about. Went to the baseball game last night and the crowd was behind the team all the way to the exciting finish. DNH wins over AGWSR. The bleachers were full and this part of the fan club is behind home plate. Love these fans!! Baseball games If you have been staying at home when the DNH Wolverines have been playing baseball you are missing a lot of fun. These boys are playing their hearts out and the fans are showing up in force. Games have been played July 6 and 7 in Dike and on Friday, July 10 you can catch DNH playing another game at home against Union. Tournament time starst for baseball on July 14 at Parkersburg starting at 7 pm. A win will allow us to play again on the 18th. Pitch fast and straight hit hard and long and have fun. The fans are behind you all the way. Go Blue. Softball tournament time The DNH softball team played July 8 at Denver and with a win they will play again at Conrad on Friday. Keep the games going and play to win and have fun. Fans love to watch and are behind you all the way. Good luck. Advertising & News deadline 10 a.m. Monday! (319) 824-6958 Konken Electric, Inc.

His garden has also been a 50 year project. For the first time this year I have watched his previous weed free garden turn into an extraordinary luscious green patch of grass. What was the best part of gardening Jim? He will always remember learning gardening tips from his Father Allie Biersner and watching his garden produce bountiful harvests. Jim started his garden on the back of his lot and as we all know it was always weed free. His favorite garden tool is the 4 pronged long handle fork. Jim informed me he has had just about all vegetables in his garden on time or another. He had the favorites, tomatoes, potatoes, beans, cukes, onions and peppers. Some years he would try cabbage, cauliflower and broccoli. His all time favorite that he will miss the most is the sweet potato. He can remember when he experimented with growing peanuts. They just didn't catch his fancy. In case you are wondering about sweet corn, well it took up too much room so he left corn to the farmers. He might have forgotten a few other garden crops but one thing is for sure and that is we will miss watching his garden grow. The extended family members and neighbors will have to get their veggies at the store. The garden has filled many fruit jars and freezer bags for the family. So what do we see in the back yard? Flowers, grapevine and rhubarb and one potted tomato he just couldn't live without. With that grapevine, Jim has found that he can make several wreaths each year. I found two home made wreaths hanging in the garage and his special seasonal wreaths were in storage. He has a couple of good reasons for giving up on gardening and we can all relate to the fact that with age, bending, kneeling and the inability to get off the ground is way too much work. With the decision to have extra time on your hands, now what do you do Jim? "I have this nice green John Deere riding lawn mower and I spend as much time on it as I did in the garden." How is that possible? I mow my lawn and then head to Jim Jr's yard and then trailer over to grandson Brodie's and with plenty of daylight and gas left, I finish the last lawn at grandson Luke's house.

With fantastic participation the conclusion was fun for all. As we were waiting for the pizza to arrive we enjoyed hearing the true story of Scarlett the Cat to the Rescue: Fire Hero. Then those with perfect attendance were given a prize of ear buds. They included Alex Bausman, Madeline Bausman, Leah Beving, Clay Buseman, Landen Dennis, Carly DeVries, Claire Diamond, Colton Diamond, Ali Gerbracht, Gavin Gerbracht, Eleanor Martin, Alex Meyer, Kenleigh Murra, Eli Rose, Braelyn Schafer, and Sidney Schafer. After enjoying pizza, juice boxes, and cookies, the preschoolers received their prizes. This was followed by the drawing of winners in grades K - 4 for a variety of lego prizes. The more books an individual reportedly read, the more chances there were for that individual to win a prize. In addition, we are asking each child who participated in the summer program to stop by the library to pick up a coupon for a free child’s admission to Barn Stahl Farm. Other contributors that made this year’s program such a super success were Arby’s @ the Mill, Grainway, People’s Savings Bank, Snittjer Grain, Van Heiden Tiling & Construction, Wellsburg Ag, Wellsburg Insurance, and the Wellsburger. Our sincere thanks is extended to these businesses. To encourage continued summer reading, reading Bingo forms were sent home at the conclusion of the pizza party with kids in grades K 4. All those in grades K - 4 are eligible to "play" so if your child didn't get one of these forms last week, please stop by the library to pick one up. All those attending the pizza party headed home with a pretty super prize last week. Making a super power wand completed the Story Time portion of “Every Hero Has a Story” last week. These preschoolers also enjoyed the stories of Super Red Riding Hood and Hero Dad and meeting the ladybug puppet.

The Spartans pulled off an 8-7 road win against DikeNew Hartford Thursday, after 11-9 and 3-1 wins over South Tama and Gladbrook-Reinbeck earlier in the week. Grundy Center’s only loss of the week came in a 13-1 defeat at the hands of BCLUW. The Spartans (8-12 overall, 4-10 NICL-West) were scheduled to open postseason play at home against CAL, Latimer. The game was rescheduled from Monday to Tuesday due to the weather. The winner of Tuesday’s game was to play AGWSR at Ackley Wednesday at 7:00 p.m., with the regional semifinal slated for Friday at Ackley and the final at Parkersburg on Monday. Grundy Center 8, Dike-New Hartford 7 In their fourth game in four nights and the final conference game, the Spartans ended the regular season with a win in a back and forth contest with Dike New Hartford. “This was a big win because it put us in a tie for fifth in the conference,” head coach Jeff Mathews said. The Spartans pulled off the win behind the pitching of Landry Luhring and a strong offensive performance that saw them collect 11 hits and seven RBIs on the way to eight runs. Luhring struck out three and walked two in seven full innings of pitching, and she recorded two RBIs and two runs scored. Kayla Mathews, Alyssa Mathews, Sydney Mathews, and Brooke Flater collected two hits each on the night, Alyssa with two runs scored and Sydney with two RBIs.

They were scheduled to host AGWSR Monday and Don Bosco Tuesday, and will play East Marshall at Gilman Thursday before returning home against Union Friday. “We are really clicking on all cylinders right now and it’s pretty fun to sit back and watch the boys go out and play with energy and passion,” Dike-New Hartford head coach Sean Leonard said. “They are playing hungry and with something to prove each night. The guys are genuinely pulling for each other.” “Offensively, we are getting production from everybody in the lineup,” he said. “Defensively, we are feeding off of each other. We have made some great plays through this stretch. Our pitching has been phenomenal. Everybody is playing with a lot of confidence. We still make mistakes and we can still improve. But, right now, we feel pretty good with how we are playing. It’s not about wins, it’s about playing well and competing. And that’s what the boys are doing.” Grundy Center's Sydney Mathews takes off for first base after laying down a bunt in the game against Gladbrook-Reinbeck last Monday.

The organization is announcing a partnership with Positive Coaching Alliance (PCA), a national non-profit which develops "Better Athletes, Better People" through resources for youth and high school sports coaches, parents, leaders and student-athletes. Iowa Youth Sports Initiative (IYSI) is a group of individuals who support the mission and vision of PCA. They hope to make the competitive sports experience fun and healthy and complete with life learning lessons for Iowa's youth and the other groups involved in youth sports. PCA was founded within the Stanford University Athletic Department in 1998. It provides live group workshops led by PCA "Trainers", online courses and books by founder Jim Thompson. It is in partnership with about 3,000 schools and youth sports organizations. It has delivered more than 13,000 workshops and has trained thousands of coaches each year. PCA's national advisory board is made up of elite coaches and athletes, including national spokesperson and 11-time NBA champion coach Phil Jackson and former University of Northern Iowa, Iowa and Stanford athletic director Bob Bowlsby, currently commissioner of the Big 12 Conference.

"As a former athlete, I know how rewarding competitive sports can be, not just for the athlete, but for parents, coaches and fans," Justis said. "However, the youth sports environment has changed dramatically since I was competing, not all for the good. IYSI and PCA are working together to keep the experience a positive one for all involved." IYSI will be offering panel discussions and workshops in the near future. For further information on PCA (www.positivecoach.org) and IYSI, contact Justis at njustis@ cfu.net.
