Food distributions continue even without local pantry %\ RACHEL MCGLASSON Calhoun News-Herald Since June, Calhoun County has gone without the benefits of a food pantry to help serve the needy in the county. However, Calhoun families in need of assistance have not been left high and dry, as many have come together to organize the “Calhoun County Emergency Food Distribution,� as called on Facebook. Jennifer White, the former organizer of the Calhoun County Food Pantry has stepped up with the help of the Calhoun County Senior Center, to continue providing food items to those in need. “It’s been going really well,� White, one of the main organizers of Calhoun’s current food distribution, said. “This is all we have right now, so we’re going with what we’ve got.�

Calhoun County’s only food bank closed at the end of June this year, after the organization which operated it, Lutheran Child and Family Service, downsized its services. With the pantry’s closure, work

Wednesday of every month and has already made two stops, offering anyone needing assistance a variety of food items. Individuals need only show up to the city parking lot behind Mel’s Riverdock to collect their food from 10 a.m. to 12 p.m. that day. Individuals can then choose from food items, including fresh produce, to take home in their own box or bag. The St. Louis Food Bank does not require a client list, offering to help anyone who qualifies for assistance. “The St. Louis Food Bank brings a ton of stuff. So, they can service anybody and everybody,� Jennifer White, organizer of the emergency food distribution services said. The second food distributor to the county is Catholic Charities.

%\ RACHEL MCGLASSON Calhoun News-Herald There’s a new face behind all of the exciting events that take place at Pere Marquette Lodge and Conference Center. Taylor Hamberg is stepping up as director of marketing and events for the lodge, and while many may not even realize the position exists, it is the backbone of all the activities that take place at the lodge. Wine clubs, festivals, beer gardens, paranormal investigations and dinner theaters — all of this is now under the care and consideration of Hamberg. New to the position, Hamberg stepped into the role on Aug. 15. While still learning, she has the help of the woman who has held the position for the past six years, Leslie Franklin. Franklin is leaving the position to join her father in the family business, and while she’s looking forward to her new adventure she says it’s a bittersweet moment to be leaving.

With more than 30 local artists displaying and selling their pieces, the event will feature all kinds of media, including paintings, photography, glasswork, pottery, jewelry and more.

Freedom By BILL HOAGLAND In December 1993, two caged pet monkeys were given to an Alton man. The previous owner purchased them at an animal auction and prior to that, they had been at an exotic animal attraction in Branson until it went bankrupt. On the same day that the Alton man received these monkeys, they both escaped. One was captured two months later. The other monkey remained on the loose for seven months and this story is about that monkey. For our purposes, we will call him “Billy.” Billy was a Japanese macaque or “snow monkey.” He was one-and-ahalf years old, weighed 40 pounds and when standing, was three-and-a-half feet tall. He had brown-gray fur with a big pink face, short tail and long, thin arms and legs. Unlike their tropical cousins, snow monkeys can tolerate cold weather and are able to swim in frigid water. After the monkeys escaped, there was a concerted effort to recapture them. The monkeys soon split up and for the next month, Billy was frequently seen wandering around Alton on his own. When someone reported seeing him to the authorities, the owner and an animal control officer would go to the scene and try to coax Billy into shooting distance of a tranquilizer dart gun. As soon as Billy saw the gun, he would scamper away. In January 1994, Billy showed up at the Godfrey home of Aune Nelson, five miles outside of Alton. Aune lived on a bluff overlooking the Mississippi River. She was a renowned animal lover and had long ago dedicated her land as a nature preserve and sanctuary for

wild animals. Billy was quickly befriended by Aune and was fed on a regular basis along with other wildlife. During this period, it was extremely cold. Aune, concerned that Billy might not survive, reluctantly decided that he should be tranquillized and placed in a safer environment. An animal control officer came out to assess the situation and Aune videotaped the episode. In the video, when Aune offered food to Billy, he would immediately run to the porch and gently take the food from her hand. When the officer attempted to do so, Billy refused to come to the porch. Within the next week, Billy showed up at Clifton Terrace, where I live. Annie Sheppard, our neighbor, noticed Billy one morning on the rear deck of her house, standing on his hind feet and looking at her through a sliding glass door. She got a head of lettuce and cautiously moved outside onto the deck with Billy. He did not seem frightened of her at all. At that point, as Annie handed him the lettuce, her husband, Cas, took photo of Annie and Billy standing together on the porch like two old friends sharing a head of lettuce. Billy did not stay long at Clifton Terrace. Animal control people showed up the next day to capture him. As soon as he saw them, he scampered off. Within two weeks, Billy began appearing at a farm directly across the Mississippi River in St. Charles County. Presumably, Billy crossed the Mississippi by walking on the ice and by swimming. He was living on handouts from various people in the West Alton area. In mid-March, the St.

Currently, Catholic Charities is working with United Way to try to distribute more often to the community and provide more fresh food items. On distribution days, clients of Catholic Charities each get a prepackaged box full of their goods. Catholic Charities is already working to achieve more frequent distribution days, coming to the county Wednesday, Aug. 30 for a visit. With three distribution days total, turnout numbers have been good. While

(Continued from A1) working year-round to prepare Poor Farm Hollow for the family event that provides more than just a good time for Calhoun County. The Calhoun County Fair is one of the largest economic boosts the county sees throughout the year, drawing in visitors from all over the Riverbend region, Strauch said. “It brings in a lot of people from all over the area,” Strauch said. “I think it helps boost the economy of Calhoun. A lot of people bring in livestock … and produce; local organizations depend on the income that they make from setting up food stands and the extra people in the county. It just brings in a lot of different people.” Calhoun’s fair has the unique advantage of occurring much later in the summer than most other county fairs in the region, encouraging people from all over to get one last summer experience in before autumn truly takes hold.

Art

(Continued from A1) can make crafts and works of art to take home with them. Live demonstrations will show guests how to spin their own pottery on a pottery wheel and weave baskets. Musical entertainment will also take place both days of the event. On Saturday, Lauren Waters and Kevin Bilchek and R. Scott Bryan will serenade guests. Sunday will feature the musical talents of Matt Livasy, and Steve and Jackie of Outlaw Opry. But Art in the Park is more than just a good time in Grafton, the event gives back to the community, offering proceeds to the Jersey County High School music department and Grafton Elementary’s art program. Saturday morning, guests can enjoy performances by the JCHS Shades of Blue Jazz combo, Jazz Ensemble and Show Choir from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. While at the park, guests can cast their vote for the people’s choice during the Grafton Elementary art

Charles County Health Department sent a trained sharpshooter to West Alton to kill Billy, but he somehow managed to stay out of gunshot range. The sharpshooter could never hit him and finally St. Charles County decided not to pursue it any further. About a month later, Billy showed up at the Bellefountaine rock quarry, the one that is located on the east side of Route 367 next to the Lewis Bridge over the Missouri River. Billy probably crossed the river on the railroad bridge or the 367 bridge to get there because the current is so much stronger on the Missouri River although it is conceivable that he swam across. He remained at the quarry for several weeks, scampering on the boulders, throwing rocks and just “hanging out.” Workers at the quarry began leaving food for him. The St. Louis County Health Department, concerned about an alleged health risk, tried to drug Billy with tainted fruit at the quarry, but he refused to eat it. By June 1994, Billy had moved away from the quarry and closer to St. Louis. On June 18, he was spotted in the middle of Florissant, Mo., less than a mile from I-270. Local police were notified and an intensive six hour “manhunt” ensured. This manhunt involved a dozen armed police officers and at one point, a helicopter hovering overhead.

OPINION

Hardin, Illinois

Some time that afternoon, two women saw Billy, who appeared to be bleeding from a shotgun wound, and they shuttled him into their garage. They called the police, thinking that he would be tranquilized and taken to a zoo. In fact, the police had been ordered to kill him and they did so on the assumption that he was diseased and posed a health risk. Tests conducted on the body later failed to confirm that he had any diseases. And so ended the life of a creature who made the most of his freedom. One has to admire not only his ability to get across two major rivers, and to find food in the dead of winter, but also his ability to survive dart guns, sharpshooters and tainted fruit. This is even more remarkable when you consider that until his moment of freedom came, he had spent his entire life in a cage.

White said the mobile service is not yet seeing the numbers that once attended the food pantry, she expects the numbers will soon be growing. At St. Louis Food Bank’s most recent distribution day more than 75 families were served, a large increase from the service’s first distribution day. While the numbers are climbing, White said she believes there are more people in the county who could use assistance, even beyond those who used the pantry. White hopes the new distribution method will encourage more of those individuals to come out and take advantage of the service. “I have a feeling we’ll have an

increase [in numbers] now that [people] feel more comfortable and see what it is,” White said. “I feel like there’s more need than people have signed up for, even with the pantry. There’s more people out there we could serve.” Looking ahead, White is hoping that services expand through the county, bringing in distributions more often to the county and serving more members of the community. More information on food distribution throughout the county can be found at the “Calhoun County Emergency Food Distribution” Facebook page. Distribution dates, times and locations will be listed.

This year’s fair kicks off on Thursday, Sept. 7, with the official fair opening ceremony taking place 6:30 p.m. at the flag pole. Calhoun Entertainment Company will be performing the National Anthem followed by opening remarks from Strauch and 2016 Fair Queen Cassidy Becker and an introduction of this year’s queen candidates. Festivities continue that evening with the 7 p.m. talent show at the grandstand. Friday and Saturday fair-goers can enjoy live entertainment, pageants, and the judging of livestock exhibits, art, 4-H, junior agriculture exhibits and education items. The Illinois Farm Pullers Truck Pull will also take place. Saturday fair-goers can watch the ITPA Tractor Pull, the Junior Olympics, Pedal Push and Junior and Open horse show. Sunday at 12 p.m. the Calhoun County Fair Parade will make its way through Hardin. This year’s fair theme

“Ye Ole Kingdom” will be reflected in the numerous floats on the route. Grand Marshals Carole and Charlie Casey will lead the way. “Charlie and Carole, they’re not originally from Calhoun County, but they’ve been involved in the fair practically ever since they moved here,” Strauch said. “If you want them to judge something they will certainly pitch right in and help you out any way they can.” Miss Calhoun County will be crowned Sunday evening at 6 p.m. Fair admission tickets are available in advance at all Bank of Kampsville and Bank of Calhoun locations. Day admission will be available at the gates. Arm bands will be available for $20, 6 to 9 p.m. Thursday for family night, and 1 to 4 p.m. Saturday for kid’s day. Tickets will be available all evenings at the ticket booths. If purchased in advance, 22 tickets are $18, available at the banks.

contest. “Our elementary school participates in a contest where every student draws a picture,” Lillesve said. “The theme this year is ‘Grafton Rocks’ and every student will be doing a picture showing their interpretation of that.” Three local judges will choose the best piece of artwork from each grade level in the school. The winning pictures will be framed by Burton Art Services and displayed during Art in the Park. Guests are then encouraged to donate money to whichever picture they believe should win people’s choice. “We wanted to celebrate our children,” Lillesve said. “All proceeds will go back to our elementary school for their art program.” As one of approximately five chamber-sponsored events in Grafton, Art in the Park not only helps out local artists and schools, but provides benefits to the entire Grafton community, drawing in crowds from all over the Riverbend

area. “This is one of the events that is sponsored by the Chamber and our goal is that this does bring people into town and I think that this one really does,” Lillesve said. “We definitely get a chance to talk to people and they come from the whole surrounding area. That always impacts everybody else in town.” Lillesve encourages anyone coming to enjoy Art in the Park to make a trip of it, booking overnight rooms, trying local cuisine and enjoying the riverside town. “You know, tourism is our business, but it’s fun to come to Grafton. They’ll see a lot of cool stuff,” Lillesve said. “It’s a really family oriented day with art and with music — It all just adds to their day in Grafton.” A full schedule of Art in Park events can be found at the Facebook page, “Grafton’s Art in the Park.” Any artist interested in reserving a booth at the festival can visit www. graftonilchamber.com.

(Continued from A1) out. It’s going to be like leaving my family.” Franklin has nothing to worry about, however, with Hamberg eager to do her best for the lodge. Hamberg is an Alton native, having been born and raised in the area before heading to Drake University to study public and international relations, with a concentration in leadership. Having just graduated in May, Hamberg is eager to impress at her first job. “What really attracted me to this position is it’s close to home and I really like the way they laid it out for me,” Hamberg said. “It’s a position that will give me a lot of opportunities to capitalize on a lot of the strengths I developed in college, and build upon the things I’m maybe not so good at yet.” During her first few weeks in the position Hamberg was on her own, able to explore the position and learn at her own pace. Now, Franklin has returned to help guide Hamberg through the more refined details of the job. “We just had an event this weekend, so I got to work alongside [Franklin] and kind of see how things work so I can get an idea of what needs to be done, when it needs to be done and all the logistics that go into an event,” Hamberg said. And there are a lot of logistics. Hamberg will now be in charge of organizing each event at the lodge, including development, advertising, social media promotion, booking bands and vendors, setting up, tearing down and much more. But the workload doesn’t intimidate her. “I was a cheerleader in college and I was a cap-

tain, so I have that really big personality and I love talking to people. I love being around people, so the events are really interesting to me because not only am I helping to put these events together, working through the logistics of the event, but I’m also getting to be there for the events,” Hamberg said. “I get to see the reactions — so this is my event and these people are loving it and this is because I took all these steps to make it as successful as it is. I want to put on these events and I want to be there to experience it with everyone.” One of the things Hamberg wants to focus on in the position is the lodge’s social media presence. With extensive personal knowledge of social media and an education in the topic at college, Hamberg hopes she can utilize the platform to bring even more people to the park. “I’d really like to see if I can hopefully take the social media to the next level and get people from across the river to come over,” Hamberg said. “We have a beautiful state park here and I think more people need to experience it. I really want as many people as possible to be able to experience what we have to offer.” And as Franklin sets off for her new job, leaving Hamberg to go forward in the position on her own, she said she is eager to see where Hamberg takes her new role. “I’m really excited about [Hamberg] taking over the position,” she said. “I think she’s going to bring some great ideas and some great fresh perspectives to the table, so I’m excited to see what she comes up with next.”

Back on his feet By ROBERT LYONS Calhoun News-Herald With time running out on hope he’d ever be able to walk again, 20-year-old Franklin Springman turned to physical therapists in Jerseyville to defy the odds. Springman suffered spinal cord damage March 30, 2016, in an automobile accident between his hometown of Greenfield and White Hall. While there were three people in the car in which he was a passenger, Springman said he received the most serious injuries. “Basically, it was a bunch of kids — three of us — out drinking and hit a ditch,� he said, detailing how the car went from one side of the road to the other until it eventually overturned. Springman suffered a broken back in the upper lumbar region, which also stretched and caused significant swelling around his spinal cord. As a result, he lost the use of his legs. “If it would have been cut or severed, they said there would have been no chance [of walking again],� he said. “Ever since I was in the hospital, I’ve had pain in my legs, and they’ve always said pain is a good thing.� Springman was told if he wasn’t walking and back to normal within 18 to 24 months, he would likely never be the same as he was before the accident. “The reason the doctors put that timeframe on there is because after that the damage from the swelling becomes permanent,� Whitney Mullink, Springman’s physical therapist assistant at JCH, said. “September will be the 18-month mark, and I’ve been walking with a walker for about two months,� he said. “It makes me feel pretty good, because there were a lot of people that hasn’t thought that I’d be able to walk again. There were nurses who said I’d never be able to.� Mullink said she, and the other physical therapists at JCH, had hope for Springman from day one. She said she’s not 100 percent sure why any medical professional would have told him anything to lose faith. “The only way he wouldn’t be able to walk would be if there was a sever of some sort,� she said. After the accident and stint in the hospital, Springman spent a year undergoing physical therapy in Jacksonville. However, he said he reached a point where he knew staying in that setting would not help him reach his goal. Since the end of April, he has undergone therapy twice each week at Jersey Community Hospital’s Wellness Center. Mullink said he had minimal use of his left leg and his right leg was of almost no use. Both Mullink and Springman said sessions in the Wellness Center’s heated therapy pool and ant-gravity treadmill have probably been the most significant contributors to his progress. On his

Franklin Springman, right, takes steps Monday afternoon around the physical therapy unit at Jersey Community Hospital’s Wellness Center with the help of Physical Therapy Assistant Whitney Mullink. Springman lost the use of his legs following a 2016 car crash in Greene County, but has since been making progress toward regaining his mobility. first visit to the pool, Mullink said it took her full-strength and that of another physical therapist to help Springman go from sitting in an aquatic wheelchair to standing. “Two days later, he was able to do it with minimal assist from one person,� she said. Muscle tapping, in which light force is applied over a muscle to stimulate a response, as well as “talking to the muscles� were also techniques Mullink feels have been effective. “He thought I was a little kookie, but there were times that I would say, ‘Tell your leg to kick,’� she said. “He would, and it would. A lot of it is brain stuff, it’s retraining the brain and making the body aware of it.� He said family support has been a constant, which has helped him remain positive and confident he will overcome the situation. He also credits physical therapy. “If it wasn’t for me going to therapy, I wouldn’t be where I am now,� he said, adding that the exercises the JCH physical therapists have prescribed have led to consistent progress. “If I didn’t come down here to Jerseyville for therapy, I know I wouldn’t be standing here and walking around right now.�

Mullink said there is progress noted with each of Springman’s visits to the Wellness Center he is getting closer to his goal. “He’s improving by leaps and bounds,� she said. “There’s not one visit where he doesn’t do something new.� The physical therapists at Jersey Community Hospital see patients of all ages in myriad conditions. Many come in after injures and surgeries with the expectation of a full recovery. But, Mullink said Springman’s situation stands out among all of the others she has encountered, because she was in a position to give a young man hope. “I told Frank, he’s probably going to go down in my book as probably being one of my most exciting cases,� she said. “Everything lined up great as far as his prognosis and it just played out. He’s got goals, we’ve got goals and we’re not done.� While Springman wishes he could take back his decision to get in car with a drunk driver last year, and thus avoid the crash, he said he is grateful to have met wonderful caregivers at JCH and beyond. He

said the accident also altered his perspective on life. “Honestly, this wreck has changed me,� he said. “Not only being in a wheelchair, but my personality and my attitude toward everything. I was hard headed before the accident, but I’m more hard headed now because I’ve got the mindset that I’m going to walk again. I plan to be walking with no walker, no braces, no nothing.� Springman said he is studying criminal justice in college with the goal of one day becoming an investigator with Illinois State Police. He said he would like the skills to know exactly how accidents occur, and apply it to the crash in which he was involved. Based on the effort he has applied to regaining the ability to walk, it may be impractical to think he won’t accomplish his goal. “One thing everyone needs to know is don’t underestimate yourself,� he said. “If you want to do something, set your mind to it and you can do it. Whenever I first started this journey a year-and-a-half ago, I never thought I’d be up and walking with a walker or even standing.�

“Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable--if anything is excellent or praiseworthy-think about such things.� —Philippians 4:8 NIV

I

t is good to spend time each day in quiet reflection, thinking and praying about our lives. Much of our daily life is spent “inside our own heads,� though just how much varies a lot with individuals and their circumstances. Introverts and people who live alone probably spend more time inside their own heads than extroverts and people who live with others. In any case, there are perils to reflection and interiority; quiet reflection can easily turn into brooding over real or imagined grievances. The teacher on the way to school and the office worker on the way to work may both be imagining the difficult individuals they are sure to confront. How much of your interior life is spent in these imaginary conflicts? While it can be helpful to rehearse the argument you plan to have with someone, these rehearsals can easily become obsessive and filled with unkind thoughts about others. Also, do you find yourself dwelling on unchaste thoughts throughout the day? Sometimes we must make a conscious effort to clean up our interior space. We should recall Jesus’s warning that whoever is angry with his brother or sister is subject to judgement and whoever looks at a woman lustfully has committed adultery in his heart. (Matthew 5:22-28) – Christopher Simon

JNRC residents take in eclipse Residents at Jerseyville Nursing and Rehab Center watched the eclipse Aug. 21. Some residents recalled seeing the most recent total solar eclipse when they were in grade school.

September is Cholesterol Education Month During the month of September, The Calhoun County Health Department will offer blood tests for lipid profiles and glucose, along with blood pressure screenings. Also available for men during September is the PSA or Prostate Specific Antigen blood test. The cost for the lipid screening is $20. The PSA is an additional $20. A report will be mailed to the client and to

their physician. The cholesterol test requires that you fast for 12 hours prior to the test. The screenings are being offered on September 11, 12, 25, and 26, from 8-10 am. An appointment is required. Blood cholesterol level has a lot to do with chances of getting heart disease. In fact, the higher the blood cholesterol level, the greater the chances of developing

heart disease, the number one killer of men and women in the U.S. High cholesterol itself does not cause symptoms, so many people are unaware that their cholesterol level is too high. More than 230,000 American men will be diagnosed with prostate cancer this year. About 70% of all diagnosed prostate cancers are found in men aged 65 years and

older. In the early stages, there are usually no symptoms. As with any cancer, early detection provides the best chance for recovery. That is why the PSA test is recommended for men over age 50. For more information about these important tests, or to schedule an appointment, please call Calhoun County Health Department at 618-5762428.

Last Monday I attended a viewing party of the Total Eclipse at the home of Dennis and Shelly Scherer in O’Fallon, Mo. A delicious luncheon of Eclipse themed foods and drinks were enjoyed by family and friends present. With our special glasses we were able to watch the total covering of the sun by the moon. It was quite an experience for all who enjoyed it. Many thanks to the Scherer’s for a great afternoon! Last Sunday, Aug. 20, Cindy Jenkins hosted a birthday dinner for her husband Albert Jenkins at their home in Golden Eagle with their family present, along with his sister Margie Heidemann, her son and grandson of St. Louis. Margie had found their mother, Anne Jenkins, original Honorable Discharge papers from the Navy, along with her photo in uniform. As a surprise Cindy had them framed and gave them to him for his birthday. Albert’s mother had passed away in Iowa when he was just a toddler. What a wonderful surprise gift! Many more “happy and healthy ones” Albert! On Saturday, Aug. 26, Trevor and Cyndi Axford hosted a birthday party for their daughter Madison on her 21st birthday.

The Celebration of Life of Sally Nolte was held on Sunday afternoon at the Brussels American Legion Hall. Approximately 250 family and friends were in attendance for the afternoon. Cindy Jenkins catered the delicious luncheon and many attendees brought side dishes, salads and desserts. Our deepest sympathy to her daughter and son-inlaw Irene and Jim Egner of Alton, and son Dan Nolte of Golden Eagle and their families, also her brother William (Susie) Schmitz of Pa. According to Sally’s wishes cremation rites were accorded. Sally served as both clerk and then Postmaster at the Golden Eagle Post Office for many years. She was a sweet, caring individual to all her patrons. After retiring she also worked at Pere Marquette Lodge as an assistant dining room manager. She will be greatly missed by all who knew and loved her. Sally passed away on Aug. 13 at the home of her daughter and son-in-law in Alton surrounded by all her family.

Fire Chief Kent Schulze, along with the volunteers from the district, had Fire Safety Training as well as Land Zone Training. A helicopter from Air Evac was used in the recent training. In an emergency they may have to land on a highway or in a field and they were trained how to get the injured to the helicopter. This was all very helpful to the volunteers and Chief Kent.

Honestly, falling is one of the scariest things that can happen, no matter what age. All people will fall sometime during their lives. Bouncing back from a fall is a little bit easier for younger people, but can potentially be a real problem for aging adults. Fall is a great season to do a home and surroundings “inventory� to identify and remove potential fall risks. Why not set a date with a friend or family member to help (be sure to ask them to bring pie)? Think about: 1) Throw rugs, which can bunch up or slide under feet. 2) Electrical cords and phone lines,

By Mary Crawford which should be placed behind furniture or under heavier area rugs to keep out of the way. 3) Piles of newspapers, magazines, boxes and “stuff�: keep hallways and paths clear of excess stuff that can cause falling. 4) Prescription medication side effects: talk with a health care provider if taking prescription medications about possible side effects, such as dizziness or nausea and possible interactions with other prescriptions. Drug side effects can increase risk of falling. Be sure to talk with a health care provider about balance problems. 5) Stretching and exercise: even if mobility is limited, try to move to improve strength, balance and flexibility. If working with a physical therapist, talk about simple exercises that can help. 6) Nutrition: age causes taste buds to change. Additionally, medications can change how to smell and taste food. Dental issues can even make chewing painful. Trying to eat nutritious foods and drinking a lot of water can make a huge difference in feeling and moving. Being aware of home environment, making changes if needed and doing everything possible to be strong and healthy can all help reduce risk of falling. Questions? Give us a call: 618-576-9567.

Warriors begin year with OT win Calhoun faced Camp Point to start the 2017 season, and went into an overtime shootout before emerging victorious, 16-14. The Warriors had two players rush more than 100 yards: Ty Bick (104) and Jacob Watters (103). Bick scored the game-winning overtime touchdown on a 10-yard run. Watters punched in the two-point conversion, which made the difference as Camp Point answered with an overtime touchdown of its own, but failed on the conversion try. Calhoun scored first in the game, taking an 8-0 lead out of the season’s first quarter on Cole Lammy 1-yard run. Camp Point knotted it up before halftime, and neither team could muster a scoring drive in the second half. This week the Warriors will travel to Jacksonville to take on the Routt Rockets. Routt opened the year with a one-point, 27-26, victory over North Greene in overtime.

Explore property tax exemptions

Illinois has a property tax exemption program. Through four types of exemptions, this program either reduces or defers an increase in the equalized value of property. These exemptions lower the assessed valuation when the tax rate is applied. Qualifications and application procedures vary for each program. However, occupants must own and occupy the property Jan. 1 of the tax year to qualify. Owner-occupied general exemption This exemption lowers the equalized assessed value of property up to $6,000. To receive this exemption, owners must: Q have lived on the property on or before Jan. 1 of the tax year. Q apply for this exemption at the assessor’s office.

Home improvement exemption This exempts, for four years, any increase in the assessment of property due to an addition or other improvement to a home for which the assessor would add value. Q The exemption applies to the first $75,000 in improvements. Q Occupants must apply for this exemption at the assessor’s office. Q Occupants must own the home and use it exclusively as a residence. Senior homestead exemption This exemption lowers the equalized assessed value of property by $5,000 and may be claimed in addition to the owneroccupied exemption. To receive this exemption, one must: Q have lived on the property by Jan. 1 of

the tax year. Q have reached age 65 during the tax year. Q apply for the exemption at the assessor’s office. Applicants are to bring identification with birth date shown. Senior citizen assessment freeze exemption This exemption freezes the taxable assessment on property, but not the tax rate. This exemption may be claimed in addition to those described above. The actual taxes residents pay may continue to increase based on the amounts levied by taxing bodies (school districts, city, township, etc.). Filing deadline for this exemption is Dec. 31 each year. To receive this exemption one must:

Q have owned and occupied the property two years starting Jan. 1. Q be 65 or older. Q have a maximum household income of $55,000, including that of all people using the property as their principal dwelling place Jan. 1 of the tax year. Q obtain an application for exemption at the assessor’s office. This exemption must be renewed annually. These exemptions are available through the Calhoun County Supervisor of Assessments office, now located in the old grade school building next to the sheriff’s office, at 301 S. County Rd. in Hardin. Please call 618-576-9700 ext. 1 with any questions.

Set and stick to your holiday budget The chance to give gifts and spend time with loved ones makes the holiday season a special time of year. But for many people, the holiday season often leads to overspending. A 2016 survey from the American Research Group found that American shoppers anticipated spending an average of $930 on gifts that holiday season. Data from T. Rowe Price confirms that parents are spending between $400 and $500 per child each year. In 2015, CPA Canada conducted a random phone survey of 1,004 adult Canadians and found the average adult planned to spend $766 on holiday gifts. Although these numbers can reflect an overwhelming sense of generosity, many times excessive spending is based on a desire to outdo gifting from the year prior sometimes at the risk of personal finances. Some people are taking drastic measures to make holidays over-thetop, with some delving into emergency savings while others withdraw prematurely from retirement accounts. Budgeting for the holiday season can help shoppers keep their finances in check. Determine spending patterns An examination of receipts and spending habits from previous holiday seasons can help individuals establish budgets for the current year. Make a list of

all expenses - even the ones that extend beyond holiday giving. These may include expenses such as gym service fees, homeowner's insurance, traveling expenses, gift exchanges at work, and more. Extra costs can add up and should be factored into holiday budgets. Try to recall if your spending last year felt comfortable or if you were paying off credit cards long after the holiday season had ended. If it's the latter, resolve to make adjustments. Establish a budget that fits There is no such thing as a one-size-fits-all budget. Figure out if there is extra money this season or if times are tight. This will help you plan accordingly and avoid overspending. Shifting priorities can help free up some cash. If children are interested in this year's hot (and likely expensive) gift, cut back on holiday travel or entertaining. Instead of buying gifts for coworkers, buy a drink during a night out. Use the holidays as an opportunity to sell Collectibles, gently used toys, video games, action figures - all of these items may be collecting dust at your home, but they might be coveted by other shoppers. Rely on the season for spending to make some extra income that can be cashed in for your own holiday purchases. Set up an account and

expenses even after purchasing warranties. For example, the U.S. Federal Trade Commission says that consumers may incur shipping costs to send items back to factory or service centers. Some warranties require shoppers pay for labor charges, while others state that items must be packaged in their original boxes. Certain conditions deemed "normal" wear and tear may be excluded from coverage. What does the store get? Consumer Reports says that retailers often push hard to get shoppers to buy service plans because they're a source of additional income for them. On average, stores keep as much as 50 percent or more of what they charge for warranties. That can be even more than they make selling the product itself. Shoppers would be wise to keep in mind that, with regard to warranties, retailers may be looking out for their own best interests rather than the consumers'. Check your insurance policy If a product is damaged or stolen during a fire or another major home or automobile event, an existing insurance policy may already cover the items.

The chance to give gifts and spend time with loved ones makes the holiday season a special time of year. But for many people, the holiday season often leads to overspending.

track spending Establish a separate account strictly for holiday spending. This can include a credit card only used for gifts and entertaining or a savings account at a bank or credit union. You won't know what is going out of your account unless you keep careful tabs

on it. Tracking spending is the biggest key to sticking with a budget, according to the financial advice group The Balance. Holiday budgeting can be challenging. But with some effort, it is possible to avoid debt and still enjoy a happy holiday season.

Extended warranty buyers' guide Upon reaching the checkout counter during the peak of the holiday shopping rush, many consumers are faced with the familiar question of whether they would like to purchase an extended warranty on the product they are buying. It is a question worth pondering, and some shoppers do not know if a warranty is a good value or just a waste of money. Before purchasing a service plan or warranty, various consumer advocacy groups advise consumers take stock of certain factors. How did you pay? How shoppers pay for items can affect their warranty options. For example, some credit card companies extend manufacturers' warranties on certain products or may already include service plans among their card benefits. Before coughing up more dough, consumers should check the fine print of their card policies to see if they're already covered for warranties and other things, like travel insurance and product protection. Which parts and repairs are covered? Warranties may be very specific in the problems they address, and consumers may still have out-of-pocket

Upon reaching the checkout counter during the peak of the holiday shopping rush, many consumers are faced with the familiar question of whether they would like to purchase an extended warranty on the product they are buying. It is a question worth pondering, and some shoppers do not know if a warranty is a good value or just a waste of money.

When a warranty can be a good idea It's often wise to purchase extended warranties when buying previously owned or refurbished products, such as used cars or repaired electronics. A warranty on an older home also may be a good bet.

Many consumer products do not need to be covered by extended warranties. Consumers should give such warranties consideration before they begin shopping to avoid making rushed decisions at the checkout counter.
