By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press Pike County Health Department officials say they were surprised to see Pike County on the list for the first 50 Illinois counties set to see distribution of COVID-19 vaccine.

“But the sad part is we were on the list of first to receive the first vaccines because of our death rate,” Sharon Bargmann, of the Pike County Health Department, said.

Per capita, Pike’s death rate is high compared to other counties with higher populations.

Pike County was set to receive 40 doses of the vaccine today, Dec. 16, with the vaccinations to begin

Thursday at Illini Hospital.

“According to the Illinois Department of Public Health and the Center for Disease Control, hospital staff or front line workers will receive the vaccines first,” Bargmann said.

“Physicians, clinicians, respiratory therapists, dentists, dental hygienists, EMS, nursing assistants, long term care employees and residents are all in group 1A to get the first vaccines.”

Bargmann said it is unclear when the second doses of vaccines or the frequency of shipments will arrive, but those in 1B will receive their vaccines once all of 1A has been vaccinated.

“Long term care employees and residents are not included in our

County board ag committee recommends additional animal shelter oversight

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press At the Monday, Dec. 14 Pike County board’s ag committee meeting, rural Milton’s Jeannie Hoover proposed setting up a volunteer animal control subcommittee to serve as a liaison between the ag committee and Pike County Animal Control.

Hoover stated she had started volunteering at Pike County Animal Control’s animal shelter earlier in the fall, at which point she became concerned with conditions in the shelter and perceived issues with understaffing. In response, Hoover enlisted the help of other volunteers to assist with the care of animals at the shelter and upkeep of the facility.

“The volunteers have helped conditions tremendously,” Hoover said. “It’s been a good thing for the staff and animals.”

Hoover expressed concern about relying too much on volunteers to keep the shelter functioning properly, and she called for the ag committee to consider more adequately staffing the facility.

“My only concern is that there is initial interest from volunteers, but maybe the interest will decline,” Hoover said. “I think the girls out there need help. If the volunteers lose interest, the conditions for the animals will decline.”

Hoover went on to identify several areas of concern that she had with the shelter’s physical structure – including a lack of outdoor dog runs, inadequate drainage to clean dog pens and a lack of sound-deadening insulation. Hoover also identified more basic maintenance issues that existed when she started volunteering at the shelter.

“When I first arrived, there was no hot water or laundry,” Hoover. “Staff had to run water through a coffee maker to get hot water to wash a kitten.”

County Board Chair Jim Sheppard clarified that the animal shelter is owned by the city of Pittsfield, and the city is responsible for maintenance and repairs.

The hot water and laundry issues have since been resolved according to Hoover.

Following Hoover’s presentation, committee members John Birch and Mark Mountain motioned and seconded respectively moving forward with forming a committee to serve as a liaison between the ag committee and Pike County Animal Control.

The animal control sub-committee will provide oversight and input to help ensure adherence to state regulations controlling humane animal conditions and public access on the part of Pike County Animal Control.

numbers,” Bargmann said. “The government has issued a contract to Walgreens and CVS Pharmacies to distribute and administer those shots.

They are in the 1A group.”

Bargmann said she had no idea when those vaccinations would begin.

“The majority of the deaths in our county has come from long-term care facilities,” she said.

The logistics of planning who gets the vaccine is determined by the IDPH and the CDC, according to Bargmann.

They, along with other government agencies determine the means and methods of getting the vaccine to the areas where it is needed.

“I know law enforcement is going to be involved in getting our supply to us,” Bargmann said Monday evening.

Court expunges 68 minor cannabis offenses from record

By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press So far, the Pike County Circuit Clerk’s office has expunged 68 records of minor cannabis offenses.

Last year, Dec. 31, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzger granted a pardon, accompanied by an order of expungement, for certain individuals and specific offenses, including an arrest for less than 30 grams of any substance containing cannabis. The pardon included all convictions, providing the violations did not include a penalty enhancement or were not associated with an arrest or conviction of a violent crime.

“The process begins with a board of review,” Pike County Circuit Clerk Bryce Gleckler said.

“They review the cases and pass their recommendations to the attorney general’s office, who sends us a list.”

Once the board of review makes its recommendation to the attorney general’s office, no objections may be filed.

The cases are considered miscellaneous remedy cases. Once the circuit clerk’s office receives the list, they have 90 days to make the

expungement.

Rex Lothridge of Pittsfield is one of the individuals to have a minor cannabis conviction expunged.

“That was in 1982,” Lotheridge said. “I have been clean for 12 years, and this just is another step in changing my life.

“Once we expunge the case from the records, we are required to notify the individual who was pardoned,” Gleckler said. “All we can go by is the last known address.

Some of these people have moved and some have died.”

Lotheridge said he has not received his notification yet.

Gleckler said the oldest case to be expunged so far is a 1976 case.

Although the cases are expunged, Gleckler said the ruling does not allow for the refund of any fines paid.

Pike County’s 69 cases are just the first wave. Gleckler expects more as the board of review continues to process cases. Although the pardon became official nearly a year ago, Pike County received their first list Nov. 20.

Gleckler says he has no way of knowing how many more cases will be forwarded to his office for expungement.

IDNR, local taxidermist report successful Pike County deer season

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Following the state’s second firearm deer hunting season, the Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) last week announced a preliminary total of 76,579 deer were taken by hunters during the seven-day 2020 Illinois Firearm Deer Season that concluded Sunday, Dec. 6. A final total of 75,417 deer were harvested during the firearm season in 2019.

IDNR numbers show that a combined 58 fewer deer were harvested in Pike County during the two firearm seasons in 2020 compared to 2019. IDNR District Wildlife Biologist Tim Krumwiede said he believes the dip in firearm numbers will be more than offset by increased interest in bow hunting.

In addition, Todd Smith, owner of Pittsfield’s Smith Taxidermy and Hilltop Custom Meats said that this season has been very successful for his business and for many Pike County hunters.

“I’ve seen nothing but bigger deer, better deer and more deer,” Smith said.

Smith said that his business is seeing more deer this season, because it has received more business from

hunters interested in meat processing.

“We’ve seen four times the number of deer because of the butcher shop,” Smith said. “I’ve been doing this for 31 years, and I’ve never seen the volume or the consistently good quality and average size of deer.”

Hilltop Custom Meats also partners with Access Illinois Outdoors to provide ground venison to Pike County food pantries through the Access Food program. According to Smith, this year more hunters have donated deer to the Access Food program than in previous years.

“So far this year, we’ve processed 285 deer for the hungry, and the season’s not over,” Smith said. “Last year we did 214 total.”

All told, according to Smith, the business has processed twice the number of deer as last year, and Smith anticipates their output could double again next year.

Smith said that the weather cooperated with deer hunters this year, compared to less than ideal conditions in the previous couple years.

“I was blown away with the weather this year,” Smith said. “The last two years in a row we had the nastiest weather for rut.”

David Deeder, left, and Kayla Smith grind venison at Pittsfield’s Smith Taxidermy/Hilltop Custom Meats Monday, Dec. 14. According to Smith/Hilltop owner Todd Smith, this deer season has yielded a substantial number of large, high quality deer. Smith said his shop has processed three to four times as many deer as it did last year.

According to initial Illinois Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) firearm deer harvest numbers, Pike County has seen 58 fewer deer harvested during the two firearm weekends compared to last year.

However, IDNR District Wildlife Biologist Tim Krumwiede said that the total deer harvest – including bow hunting, youth seasons and muzzleloader season – will still show Pike County to be the top county in Illinois for deer harvest.

Illinois State Police collect toys for PACT Head Start families

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Illinois State Police (ISP) District 20 personnel presented the toys they collected as part of District 20’s annual toy drive to PACT Head Start staff Wednesday, Dec. 9.

According to District 20 Captain Brian Anderson, 2020 was one of the largest toy drives the district has conducted. “There are ten bikes and thousands of dollars worth of toys,� Anderson said.

Trooper Brandon Douglas, who coordinated the toy drive, thanked community members and members of the business community for donating and collecting toys. Douglas singled out Save-A-Lot and Old Orchard Country Club for their assistance with the toy drive.

All of the toys will be divided between Pike, Adams, Brown, Scott and Schuyler counties.

ISP District 20 is also donating $100 to PACT Head Start in each county. In all, according to PACT Family and Community Services Coordinator Sara Mixer, 57 children from 28 families will receive Christmas gifts from the toy drive.

PACT Head Start Executive Director Shana Edison said that PACT Head Start families and staff are thankful for the ISP toy drive and the generosity of the community. “The families will be appreciative,� Edison said. “Our case workers are glad local people have stepped up and provided for these families.�

Recognizing the need for good news amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Edison said that this year, the toy drive was especially important to

the low-income children and families that the organization serves. “Our program serves families with limited incomes,� Edison said. “This year, I think there is a different need with the instability families are experiencing. It has caused more problems for children and families.�

Mixer said that the pandemic has created additional financial hurdles for the families served by the agency. “It’s a struggle for families,� Mixer said. “Not just Christmas presents, but utility bills. COVID has impacted a lot of parents’ employment, and parents have been impacted by having to stay home or find child care for kids that aren’t in school this year because of COVID.�

Captain Anderson agreed with Edison and Mixer that the toy drive plays an especially important role in the lives of PACT Head Start children this year. “No matter the year those kids have had – with homeschool and quarantines – when they get up on Christmas morning, they’re going to have a good day,� Anderson said.

Head Start programs are federally funded and designed to promote the school readiness of infants, toddlers and preschool-aged children from low-income families. Services are provided in a variety of settings including centers, family child care and children’s own homes.

Head Start programs also engage parents or other key family members in positive relationships, with a focus on family wellbeing. Parents participate in leadership roles, including having a say in program operations.

By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press The main room at the Community Building, formerly the Lion’s Building, in Pleasant Hill was full of toys and clothes ready to be picked up by area families facing a bleak Christmas. “The community has been great,� Dana Collard, one of the organizers of the event, said. “We have had a lot of new and almost-likenew toys donated, as well as cash and gift cards.�

Collard said the club had set up appointments for families to come in and pick out gifts for their children. Due to COVID regulations, only three families at a time are allowed in the building. “Each family gets two new toys and five used toys,�

Collard said.

The first pick-up was Thursday, Dec. 10 and another was held Sunday, Dec. 13. The next pick-up will be Dec. 17 from 6 to 8 p.m., and the final one will be Dec. 20 from 12 to 2 p.m.

Pleasant Hill discusses distance learning, athletics

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Pleasant Hill Superintendent Ron Edwards updated school board members on the district’s USDA distance learning grant at the group’s Monday, Dec. 14 meeting.

Edwards reported that Pleasant Hill was awarded approximately $39,000 to invest in distance learning hardware. Pleasant Hill is one of 19 school districts, including neighboring Western and Payson Seymour, to take part in the consortium grant. According to Edwards, a goal of the grant is to allow students at one consortium school to receive instruction from other schools. “For example, if we had a Spanish teacher, but another school didn’t, their students could receive instruction from our Spanish teacher,�

Edwards said.

The grant allows for the purchase of distance learning technology and hardware, including cameras and other video conferencing tools.

Edwards also told board members that Illinois High School Association (IHSA) officials met yesterday to discuss the future of high school athletics this school year. Edwards said IHSA hopes to meet with state officials in December

PICTURE PITTSFIELD

or January to iron out a timeline for athletics this academic year. “IHSA said they are committed to providing a season for every sport,� Edwards said. “That’s going to be increasingly difficult as more time goes by. If some seasons occur concurrently, smaller schools will have a tremendously difficult time fielding teams.�

With the approval of the meeting’s consent agenda, board members approved the November board meeting minutes, approved the district’s monthly financial reports and payed the district’s monthly bills.

No public participation took place, and no district correspondence was reported.

Board members conducted a first reading of updates to the board policy manual. New updates include policies related to information technology, student personal information and privacy.

The board also approved a resolution for the repayment of $150,000 from the Education Fund to the Working Cash Fund to repay two loans – $75,000 from an inter-fund loan from March 9 and $75,000 from an inter-fund loan from April 15.

Following closed session, board members approved hiring Tara Sehr as a paraprofessional.

Esther McConnell and Reuben Jones Family Esther (Hettie) McConnell married Reuben Jones about 1805 in Dickson County.

Reuben died in 1815 returning from the Battle of New Orleans, leaving Esther with five small children. Her later marriage to John Morton produced three more children.

John Morton died, leaving Esther a widow again. Esther and her children came to Pike County about 1829. Esther was listed in the 1830 census and bought land in Pike County in 1836.

Reuben and Esther’s son Rev. Thomas Jones farmed, preached on a Methodist South circuit and married Martha Ann Freeman in Pike County.

Their son, TJ Jones, married Rachel Dolbeare. He was a Civil War veteran, farmed near El Dara, served on the board of an insurance company and owned shares of the Barry State Bank.

Thomas and Rachel had a son, George Jones, who attended the University of Illinois and then farmed. He ran a garage both in El Dara and then Pittsfield. He married Nellie Shewe.

The son of George and Nellie was Lawrence Jones. He worked at the Barry Adage until WWII. He married Mary Margaret Danahey after serving in the Signal Corps during the war, then worked for the Hanni-

bal Courier Post and the Rock Island Argus.

Mary Margaret was the Baptist Church Sunday School Superintendent at Barry and a Barry High School PTA President.

Lawrence and Mary Margaret were the parents of Marynel who graduated from the University of Iowa and worked as a psychotherapist and child welfare social worker in Wisconsin. She married Jerry Corton and both moved “back� to Barry in 2014. They both currently are on the Board of New Philadelphia as well as the Barry Historical Museum. They attend the Barry Baptist Church which Marynel joined in 1963.

Marynel is the sixth generation of McConnells to live in Pike County. She and Jerry have chosen to use their retirements as a service to others.

Shelter (Continued from A1) The ag committee’s recommendation to set up the animal control sub-committee will potentially be adopted by the full county board at the group’s Monday, Dec. 28 meeting.

In other business, committee members proposed striking a section of the county’s zoning ordinance that disallows the construction of stand-alone accessory structures, such as garages or sheds, on lots without homes in villages and towns that do not have their own zoning ordinances.

Ag committee members also discussed

adopting the state’s regulations regarding the construction of cannabis craft growing facilities within the county. “It would be conditional use,� ag committee chair Mark Sprague said. “We would have two public meetings – to ask to have the property rezoned and to ask for conditional use. The community would have input at both meetings.�

Rezoning discussions are ongoing and must first pass from the ag committee, to the county planning commission, the zoning board of appeals and on to the full county board.

Deer season (Continued from A1) IDNR’s Krumwiede said that with more than a month remaining in this year’s deer season, Pike County is only 90 deer behind the total 2019 harvest. The numbers at this stage of the season, Krumwiede believes, put Pike County in a good position to retain its standing as the number one deer hunting county in the state. “I think when it’s all said and done, Pike County will still have the top county harvest for all weapon types,� Krumwiede said.

Krumwiede stated that the county’s deer population is trending down, but the deer herd numbers are healthy and sustainable. “They might have to hunt a little harder this year, but deer hunters are finding good deer,�

Krumwiede said. “Trophy hunters are finding trophy bucks, and meat hunters are putting meat

in the freezer.�

According to Krumwiede, the deer harvest has less to do with the deer population in a county, and more to do with the number of hunters. “If you look at the harvest numbers county by county, most counties are very close to last year,� Krumwiede said. “Some are within five deer. You just have a certain number of hunters in the field, and for the most part, they are going to get their deer.�

Of course, the deer population affects all Pike County residents, not just hunters. Excessive deer numbers cause property damage in fields and on roadways, Krumwiede said. “The deer population is in a good place,�

Krumwiede said. “Deer season is going well.

Hunters are happy. Farmers are happy. Motorists are happy.�

LETTER TO THE EDITOR TO THE EDITOR: I would like to say I think the ladies that started and prepared the Monday dinners at the Perry Methodist Church deserve, perhaps, a standing ovation from the entire Perry Community for the good deeds they did.

They gave lonely folks a social outing along with a home cooked meal. They also took carry-out meals to the shut-ins.

Also thank the many ladies and others that joined the group over the years and helped with the Monday dinners.

The proceeds from the meals were given to people in need and other charitable organizations such as the Honor Flight, Unmet Needs, and worthwhile causes that span the county and the state.

Every week they sent cards of encouragement, comfort and sympathy that were co-signed by the diners.

I just ask when you meet time folks on the street say “Thank You.�

This was really a good Christian deed.

Calhoun sheriff makes arrests for Hardin burglaries On Dec. 1, the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office received multiple reports of vehicle burglaries and a motor vehicle theft in the Village of Hardin.

The Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office requested assistance from the Illinois State Police Crime Scene Services.

Throughout the following week, the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office conducted extra patrols in an attempt to thwart any future crimes.

On Dec. 7 at 1:52 a.m., Deputy Zach Hardin with the Calhoun County Sheriff’s Office conducted a traffic stop on Childs Street near Park Street in Hardin on a gold colored 2003 Chevrolet Tahoe bearing Missouri registration.

Subsequent to an investigation, the driver, Kristen Marie Zinselmeier, age 32, of Saint Peters, Mo., was originally arrested for the offenses of driving while license revoked, operating an uninsured motor vehicle and improper use of registration.

Two passengers were present in the vehicle. Both passengers were taken into custody and were eventually identified as Jacob Daniel Young, age 25, of Saint Louis, Mo., and Samantha Louise Rachels, age 26, of Saint Louis, Mo. for the offense of obstructing justice.

A subject search of the vehicle revealed stolen property (i.e. car keys, wallet, credit cards), a firearm and methamphetamine. Stolen property from other jurisdictions was also recovered.

Zinselmeier, Young and Rachels were further charged with conspiracy to commit burglary, unlawful possession of methamphetamine, unlawful possession of a firearm by a felon and obstructing justice.

Young also had an outstanding warrant from Madison County for unlawful possession of a stolen vehicle, unlawful possession of weapons by a felon and unlawful possession of methamphetamine.

Rachels also had an outstanding warrant from Jefferson County, Mo., for probation violation.

Greenwood warns of several scams The Pike County Sheriff’s Department has received complaints regarding three different types of scams in the last couple weeks.

The first scam to mention is parishioners from local churches are receiving messages, either by text message or email claiming the message is from the pastor of their church. In the message, the pastor is stating they are in need of immediate funds and requests you send money to them. Do not respond to this. It is a scam.

Once the money is sent, it cannot be recovered.

The second is a phone hacking scam.

Local residents are being contacted either by phone call or text message from some-

one stating they are from your phone carrier or major software company and advises there is something wrong with your phone that needs to be corrected.

They ask you to download an app. This app gives them the ability to take over your phone and access anything you have on your phone including banking, credit cards, etc. Once the app is on your phone, you cannot remove it. They move fast and before you realize what happened, they turn your phone off, your bank account, credit card accounts and other accounts like Walmart and Amazon are already hit.

Do not respond to them and immediately delete any such message.

The third is not actually a scam, but an

Accident injures Hull woman A one-vehicle accident sent a Hull woman to the hospital with unspecified injuries.

According to Illinois State Police reports, Paula Lovell, 62, was west bound on Illinois 106 near 105th Street when she drove her 2006 Toyota off the road-

way and was stopped in a drainage ditch.

The accident was reported at 7:20 a.m. Dec. 8.

Lovell was ticketed for improper lane usage, improper registration and operating an uninsured motor vehicle.

Brown posted bond on both charges and was released, no date or time given.

Ashley N. Stroemer, 33, Rockport, was arrested Dec. 7 at 2:29 p.m. on a felony Pike County warrant.

She posted $1,500 and was released Dec. 7 at 2:50 p.m.

Courvaria D. Rogers, 22, Hannibal, Mo., was arrested Dec. 7 at 12:49 p.m. on a felony Pike County warrant seeking to revoke probation. He posted $300 and was released Dec. 9 at 5 p.m.

95th Annual Christmas Cantata The Vesper Singers of the PittsďŹ eld First Christian Church will present their 95th annual Christmas Cantata at 5 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 20, 2020 , ONLINE ONLY The program will be “Especially This Year.â€?

The online presentation was designed and directed by Kayla Boren, with live music

by Becky Irwin, Charlotte Dunham and Spencer Boren. Video direction was done by John Hull; Sound Technician is Bob Clark and Assistant Director is Kacie Lipcaman.

The entire program, completed over a 4-month period, is a video that includes 65 singers ranging from ages 3 to 88. The choir was split into six different groups. (Great care was given that the groups in the videos were close family and friend “pods� that were social-distancing together, in accordance with the CDC recommendations.) The groups practiced with masks and socially distanced and then did an “optics take� where they could mouth the words to the music. Finally the groups did a recording session socially distanced and while disinfecting between people. To our knowledge, no COVID cases were spread by any of the recordings, optics takes or rehearsals.

This continues an unbroken Christmas tradition begun by the church under Rev. Russell Booker in 1926. There will be no live service, due to COVID restrictions. Instead, please feel free to press play at the First Christian Church Youtube or Facebook page.
