Lincoln Days brings hundreds of reenactors and visitors to Lake Pittsfield By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Over 400 reenactors were on hand at Lake Pittsfield for the 19th Lincoln Days Civil War Reenactment on Saturday and Sunday. Lincoln Days is organized and sponsored by the Abe Lincoln Project/Looking for Lincoln in Pike County and the City of Pittsfield. According to Abe Lincoln Project/Looking for Lincoln in Pike County board member and JWCC history instruc-

tor, Joe Winner, reenactors came from Missouri, Iowa, Wisconsin, Indiana, Tennessee and every corner of Illinois to reenact the Battle of Shiloh, which took place in Shiloh, Tenn. in 1862. Winner said he and many other Lincoln Days attendees were drawn to reenacting by a love of history. “I’ve been reenacting for 17 years,” Winner said. “I’ve always loved history, and Civil War history specifically. My master’s thesis focused on the Civil War.”

Confederate reenactor Sam Carson, of Aurora, said his interest in reenacting was brought on by his own military service and a desire to teach others about history. “I was in the military,” Carson said. “I started reenacting in 1983 with WWII battles. I like to teach kids lessons about the reasons behind war.” In addition to reenactors, Lincoln Days brought many visitors to Pike County for the event. Brothers Eric and Marc Schmelzer brought their dad,

Tom, from Richwood, Ohio, to see the battle as an early Father’s Day present. “I found it on the internet looking for reenactments,” Eric said. “This is the first reenactment we’ve been to.” Tom Schmelzer said his interest in the Civil War comes from military relics handed down in his family. “I’ve wanted to learn more, because we’ve got an old Civil War musket and sabre at home,” Tom said. Of course, the reenactment brought many Pike County

residents to Lake Pittsfield, including Perry’s Kevin, Aidan and Zoey Mountain. “We were out here camping last weekend,” Kevin said. “This is our first time at the reenactment.” The event was the 19th Lincoln Days Civil War Reenactment to be held in Pike County.

Pittsfield explores Boat explosion injures three; two taken to Missouri hospitals city hall expansion By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press At its Tuesday, June 1, meeting, Pittsfield’s city council authorized Stock Design Architecture of Quincy to provide an estimate for design and construction costs associated with adding on to community’s city hall building. The proposed expansion would increase the building’s footprint by roughly 20 feet on the building’s west side. The addition would be comprised of a hallway and three offices – housing Pittsfield’s mayor, economic development director and city clerk. Currently, the mayor, economic development director and clerk conduct their work in common areas or open work spaces in close proximity to other city employees. The offices are warranted, Mayor Gary Mendenhall said, because the employees to be housed in the new addition frequently engage in work that is sensitive in nature, involving personnel and financial matters. If the design and construction figures come back within the city’s budget, the city would apply for a low-interest United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) loan to pay for a large portion of the addition. “If we can get our application in on time, USDA told us that they have funds left from the 2019 flooding available to Pike County,” Pittsfield Economic Development

Director Ed Knight said. “That would cover between 40 and 47 percent with a very lowinterest loan. The rest would come out of TIF.” The city’s loan application to USDA is due by July 14. In other business, the zoning committee recommended and the full council approved a zoning variance for the Mississippi Street property of Brenton and Jessica Dean. The variance will allow a reduced setback for the property’s side yard and a wider-than-normal driveway. In addition, after consulting City Attorney Mike Hollahan, it was also decided that the mayor only needs to seek council approval for Lake Pittsfield uses and events if the usage will substantially alter the grounds or add a structure at the lake. The council went on to approve a loan from United Community Bank to finance the city’s purchase of a new street sweeper for roughly $125,000. The loan is for five years, at 1.59 percent. Council members approved Ordinance 1678, permitting the placement of a “communication station” in the lot just east of Casey’s on East Washington Street, which was zoned Highway B-3. According to City Clerk Ann Moffit, the building will house fiber optic cables and equipment related to recently constructed cell towers. (See, EXPANSION, A2)

By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press A boat explosion Saturday June 5 at the Twin Pike Marina, near the Louisiana Bridge injured three people, two of which required medical attention. The incident was reported to the Pike County Sheriff’s Department at 3:28 p.m., according to Aaron Jansen, conservation police officer, who handled the incident. According to Jansen, a boat operator had just finished fueling his boat when the motor died. A few attempts later, the boat restarted but ran only for a few minutes before there was a preliminary explosion, knocking one female into the water. The remaining five occupants were able to jump from the boat before the second explosion engulfed

the entire vessel. “It’s hard to pin point a cause because of the explosion,” Jansen said. “A lot of the evidence went into the water.” Jansen said he and other officials suspect a mechanical failure in the boat’s blower. The victims ranged in age from 15 to their mid 40’s and were from the Curryville, Ladonia, Bowling Green area. One victim, 44,was taken to St. Louis with second degree burns, while the other was taken to Memorial Hospital in Louisiana, Mo., for a contusion and a suspected concussion. A third person was treated at the scene. Assisting at the scene were the Pike County Sheriff’s Department, Pleasant Hill Fire and Medical and a fire department from Louisiana, Mo.

Pike County Fair is back this week By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press After being canceled because of the COVID19 pandemic in 2020, the Pike County Fair is back at the fairgrounds in Pleasant Hill this Tuesday through Saturday. Organizer Michael McKinnon said that lingering uncertainty about the state’s regulation of large events and public gatherings made preparations for this year’s fair even more stressful than normal. “It’s been three weeks of non-stop work,” McKinnon said. “It’s been constant painting, moving and cleaning. And then there’s trying to get sponsors.” According to McKinnon, the community has stepped up to assist organizers in the mad dash to prepare for this week’s fair. “It’s very important to the community,” McKinnon said. “People really came out of the woodwork and stepped up to help.” Being able to put on the fair this year, McKinnon said, was critical to the financial sustainability of the Pike County Fair after it was canceled last year.

“This gives us the opportunity to keep the doors open on the fair,” McKinnon said. “After last year with no money coming in, we’ve got to pay our bills.” McKinnon said that, despite pandemic and bureaucratic challenges, fair-goers can expect a high quality slate of performers and events, and he urges residents to take advantage of the fair’s line up of entertainment. “The main thing is to come down and enjoy it,” McKinnon said. “It’s a good carnival, really good entertainment, the tractor pull and derby. It’s going to be a good time. Everything seemed to come together, even the liquor license.” Schedule of entertainment: Q June 9 – Family night with special guest Mad Hoss Jackson Q June 10 – IFPA truck and tractor pull Q June 11 – Lucas Oil pro Pulling League truck and tractor pull Q June 12 – Mike Brown Productions demolition derby Livestock showing: Q June 9 – sheep – 9 a.m. Q June 9 – goats – 11 a.m. Q June 10 – cattle – 9 a.m.

Old Orchard celebrates Women’s Golf Day By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press Twenty women gathered at Old Orchard Country Club on Tuesday, June 1, to celebrate Women’s Golf Day with a four-person scramble. Founded by golf writer Elisa Gaudet in 2016, Women’s Golf Day is an annual international event designed to empower and support women and girls through golf. The event is held on the first Tuesday in June. Pike County Women’s Golf Day organizer Natalie Roseberry said that this year is the first time that Women’s Golf Day has been celebrated in the county, but that she hopes to make it an annual Pike County event.

“This year was just us getting together, playing and getting it started,” Roseberry said. “We want to grow it every year.” The inaugural Women’s Golf Day event drew a multigenerational group of players from Pittsfield, Barry, Winchester and Camdenton, Mo. “It was a mix of everybody,” Roseberry said. “We just used word-ofmouth to advertise. We told the respective clubs and reached out to lady golfers we knew.” According to Roseberry, players were eager for the opportunity to play golf as a group after more than a year of COVID-19 restrictions on public gatherings. “After COVID, it was just an opportunity for ladies to get together in

aims to use Women’s Golf Day to build interest in golf among young women and as a way to raise money for a scholarship fund.

“I’m hoping it gets bigger, and we can make a fundraiser out of it,” Roseberry said. “I’d like to eventually set up a scholarship fund or some

sort of way to contribute to young females who want to learn how to golf.” (See, GOLF, A2)

Pike County to update Hazard Mitigation Plan By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press Pike County will update its plan to reduce the damages caused by natural hazards such as floods, tornadoes, snow storms, thunderstorms and ice storms among others. The plan is called a Hazard Mitigation Plan and the process to update it will be funded through a grant from the Federal Emer-gency Management Agency (FEMA). “The plan identifies activities and projects to reduce the impacts of severe weather on residents and property before an event occurs.” Pike County

Emergency Management Agency Director Joshua Martin said. “By having an updated hazard mitigation plan, the County will remain eligible for federal funds to implement these projects.” he added. The Pike County Hazard Mitigation Planning Committee will hold its first meeting Tuesday, June 15, at 7 p.m. The meeting will be conducted via teleconference. Persons interested in participating in the meeting should contact Zachary Krug, American Environmental Corp. at (217)-585-9517 Ext. 8 or zkrug@ aecspfld.com. The Planning Committee includes

county, municipal, school, fire protection district and healthcare representatives, as well as, technical partners and other stakeholders. Meetings of this committee will be conducted over the next year as working sessions so that any interested resident can attend and ask questions. The purpose of these working sessions is to gather and discuss information that will be used to update the plan. “This mitigation plan is different from our county’s emergency response plan because it focuses on ways to reduce and prevent damages before they occur,” Martin added.

Griggsville swears in elected officials

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press The city officials elected in the April Illinois Consolidated Election were sworn in at Griggsville’s Wednesday, June 2, city council meeting. Officials sworn in were Mayor Kent Goewey, City Clerk Linda Brawdy and council members Jennifer Craven, Scott Dunham and Steve Kessinger. The council went on to approve the city’s application for a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Community Facilities Grant to pay for the majority of a city plow truck. If awarded, $49,000 would be paid by the USDA grant, and $16,617 would be paid with city funds. The council was also presented with the fiscal year 2022 budget. Council members are currently reviewing the budget. The final budget will be approved in July. Council members approved placing

liens on three properties enrolled in Griggsville’s fix-or-flatten program, because no payment has been received for the cost of demolishing the homes formerly standing on the properties. According to Goewey, the city gave the property owners more time than is legally required to make payment to the city for the demolition costs. “We’ve received no payment,” Goewey said. “It’s time to file the liens. We’ve given them way more time than we needed to.” Goewey reported to the council that the city has purchased new American flags to be displayed around the community, including a large replacement canvas flag to be displayed on the large flag pole in the center of town. City Engineer Max Middendorf reported that Griggsville is fully permitted to bore under the Norfolk Southern Railroad on the south side of Griggsville. Three bores will be made under the

two hundred foot railway right-of-way to accommodate new water and sewer lines, as well as electrical and data cables. The bores will be made at a depth of 60 inches below the right-ofway’s lowest point. Middendorf said that the boring is expected to cost $150 per foot, totaling approximately $100,000. The project will be built into the city’s fiscal year 2022 budget. “We’ll have to discuss to find out where that money is coming from,” Goewey said. Finally, Griggsville Fire Chief Larry Bradshaw reported that the fire department is preparing for an upcoming inspection by the Insurance Service Organization (IS0). “They rate every fire department in the country every five years,” Bradshaw said. Currently, Bradshaw said, Griggsville’s fire department has an ISO rating of four on a five point scale.

Illinois enters Phase 5 on Friday

By DAVID CAMPHOUSE Pike Press On June 11, following guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Illinois will enter Phase 5 of the Restore Illinois Plan. The move to Phase 5 means a full re-opening of all businesses and activities. In addition, large-scale events, conventions, amusement parks and seated-spectator venues, among others, will be able to operate at full capacity for the first time since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. Businesses and local municipalities, however, can still put in place additional mitigations as they deem appropriate. The move to Phase 5, Pike County Health Department (PCHD) Director of Nursing Sharon Bargmann said, was prompted by low rates of COVID-19 around the state. “Our positivity rate is way down as a whole,” Bargmann said. “We don’t know if that is the natural ebb and flow of the virus or if it is because so many more people are vaccinated.” In order to prevent a resurgence of COVID-19 cases,

Bargmann urged residents to get vaccinated, and warns that COVID-19 is still present in Pike County. “The important thing is for people to get vaccinated, so we can get to herd immunity,” Bargmann said Monday. “We’re still seeing cases. I think I saw six new cases when I looked this morning” Upon entering Phase 5, fully vaccinated people can resume activities without wearing a mask except where required by federal, state, local, tribal or territorial laws, rules and regulations, including local business and workplace guidance. “Basically, if you’re vaccinated, you don’t need to wear a mask in most settings,” Bargmann said. “If people are not vaccinated, they should still wear a mask.” Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH) and PCHD continue to recommend masking for unvaccinated persons, and require it for all people while traveling on public transportation, in congregate settings, in health care settings, as well as in schools, day cares, and educational institutions. “Here at the health depart-

ment, we’re still going to wear masks, because we are a healthcare facility,” Bargmann said. In addition, outdoor mask requirement in schools are also being lifted in most situations. Bargmann cautioned that CDC guidance could change prior to the start of the next school year, and she emphasized that masks are still required inside school buildings. “A lot can happen between now and August, but right now the guidance is that masks will not be required outdoors,” Bargmann said. “Masks are still required indoors, because younger kids can’t be vaccinated.” Summer camps, sporting events and day cares are under the same guidance as schools. That is, no masks are required outdoors for both vaccinated and nonvaccinated individuals. Once indoors, masks are required for all. In addition, no masks are required to be worn by either vaccinated or non-vaccinated individuals at outdoor swimming pools. “It’s kind of hard to wear a mask if you’re swimming,” Bargmann said.

PCHD will reopen its facility to the public on Monday, June 14, and will resume services Monday through Thursday with the exception of the WIC. “WIC is still remote until August,” Bargmann said. “That’s the way it’s been since this started.” PCHD clients will be able to use the front door to gain access to the building. PCHD is closed to the public on Fridays. Masking will be required and verbal COVID screening will be conducted. PCHD will close from 12:00-1:00 p.m. daily. Immunization clinics will resume in July. Additional information on PCHD operations and programs will be released next week. PCHD will continue to offer COVID vaccine clinics on Thursdays throughout the month of June for those aged 12 years and older. To register, residents are directed to call PCHD at 217-285-4407 or visit https://pikecountyil. org and click on the red banner at the top of the page. Businesses and communities can learn more about Phase 5 recommended public health practices by visiting IDPH›s website.

2020 Pike County Final Multiplier announced Pike County has been issued a final property assessment equalization factor of 1.0000, according to David Harris, Director of the Illinois Department of Revenue. The property assessment equalization factor, often called the “multiplier”, is the method used to achieve uniform property assessments among counties, as required by law. This equalization is particularly important because some of the state’s 6,600 local taxing districts overlap into two or more counties (e.g. school districts, junior college districts, fire protection districts). If there were no equalization among counties, substantial inequities among taxpayers with comparable properties would result. Under a law passed in 1975, property in Illinois should be assessed at one-third (1/3) of its market value. Farm property is assessed differently, with farm homesites and dwellings subject to regular assessing and equalization procedures, but with farmland assessed at one-third of its agriculture economic value. Farmland is not subject to the state equalization factor. Assessments in Pike County are at 33.34 percent of market value, based on sales of properties in 2017, 2018, and 2019. The equalization factor currently being assigned is for 2020 taxes, payable in 2021. Last year’s equalization factor for the county was 1.0000. The final assessment equalization factor was issued after

a public hearing on the tentative factor. The tentative factor issued in April 2021 was 1.0000. The equalization factor is determined annually for each county by comparing the price of individual properties sold over the past three years to the assessed value placed on those properties by the county supervisor of assessments/ county assessor. If this three-year average level of assessment is onethird of the market value, the equalization factor will be one (1). If the average level of assessment is greater than one-third of market value, the equalization factor will be less than one (1). And if the average level of assessment is less than one-third of market value, the equalization factor will be greater than one (1). A change in the equalization factor does not mean total property tax bills will increase or decrease. Tax bills are determined by local taxing bodies when they request money each year to provide services to local citizens. If the amount requested by local taxing districts is not greater than the amount received in the previous year, then total property taxes will not increase even if assessments increase. The assessed value of an individual property determines what portion of the tax burden a specific taxpayer will assume. That individual’s portion of tax responsibility is not changed by the multiplier.

(Continued from A1) According to Roseberry, golf is an important skill for young people to learn, and it’s a good way to stay active at any age. “Golf is one of those sports that you can be 100 years old and still be playing,” Roseberry said. ”It’s different than sports like softball or basketball that

have more of an impact on your body.” Golf also teaches players valuable life lessons, Roseberry said. “Golf teaches you a lot of patience,” Roseberry said. “With effort, it’s a skill you can build throughout your life.” The sport, Roseberry said, can even positively impact players’ career prospects.

“It’s an important networking tool,” Roseberry said. “The conversations you have on the course are a good way to make connections. When you’re stuck with someone for six hours, you never know where the conversation will lead.” To date, more than 900 locations in 68 countries have participated in Women’s Golf Day.

Expansion (Continued from A1) As a member of the Interstate Municipal Gas Agency (IMGA), Pittsfield was required to ratify the withdrawal of fellow IMGA members, Creal Springs and Tamms, from the organization after the two communities provatized their municipal gas systems in the wake of the February natural gas crisis. The council approved the withdrawal of the two communities by passing Ordinance 1677. A vote on a liquor license application allowing Jelly-

stone Park to sell packaged beer and wine was tabled, pending a second application expected from the business. “They are going to submit a beer garden application, too,” Mendenhall said. In addition, the city’s current liquor license ordinance was sent to the ordinance committee for review. According to Mendenhall, the committee will work to make the language of the ordinance more consistent. At the previous city council meeting, Mendenhall had asked council members and

city department heads to set goals for the city’s future. “We’re going to sit down and come up with one, three, five and maybe even ten year plans,” Mendenhall said. “We’re going to do some forward thinking.” Several councilmen and employees presented their goals at the June 1 meeting. Water and Gas Superintendent Steve Watkins stated that his goals were to upgrade the city’s border station, conduct meter upgrades and to replace the city’s steel pipes with plastic, so less repair work would

need to be contracted out. In addition, councilman Kevin Ketchum stated his desire to have a YMCA branch in Pittsfield. Kevin Wombles stated his desire to seal Memorial and Benson streets. Mendenhall’s goal is to establish a golf cart, bike and foot path from Pittsfield to Lake Pittsfield to encourage additional use at the lake. Eventually, Mendenhall said following the meeting, he would like to see additional amenities added at the lake, including kayak and boat rentals.

PICKINGS FROM PIKE’S PAST 50 YEARS AGO: PIKE COUNTY BOARD REDUCED FROM 24 TO 9 MEMBERS

150 Years Ago June 15, 1871 Recent discoveries in Pike County and in the adjoining county of Calhoun indicate the existence in the south part of Pike, at some remote period, of a large town or home of Indians. Mr. Humphrey, who owns land in extreme southeast Pike County, has opened and inspected 19 graves on a slight elevation above the plain of the Illinois River bottom, near ZKHUH %HH &UHHN ÀRZV LQWR WKH same. In the good old days of the past, if members of Congress wanted articles for their individual use and comfort, they paid for them out of their own pockets. A less honest faction has come in, and they charge many frivolous items against the United States. 125 Years Ago June 10, 1896 There will be a meeting of all WKH JUDGXDWHV RI 3LWWV¿HOG +LJK School June 11 to bring together and organize the alumni, by order of the president of the class of 1896. A law enacted by the State Legislature provides that on the 5th of June in every county courthouse there shall be held competitive examinations to determine who shall be entitled to a scholarship from each county to the state university. Some galoot ran over the El Dara town well a short time ago in the night, and the pump has taken a downward direction. It should be repaired, and four strong poles placed around it for protection. This is the 4th or 5th time it has been run over. 100 Years Ago June 15, 1921 One hundred degrees in the shade, two of our favorite pitch-

The present style of women’s short skirts was given as a cause for the reduction of accidents to persons boarding and alighting from street cars and railroad trains in a recent report issued in Chicago. Still, short skirts have been the cause of many accidents. We saw a man once who was so busy looking at one of them that he fell off a train, and nearly broke his curious neck.

Schultz walking away Lady Wolves win regional from the program he built By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press John Schultz was honored Saturday for his 33 years at Pittsfield High School. Schultz has taught business at the school for 33 years, was an assistant football coach for seven years, was assistant baseball coach and was assistant girls basketball coach for four years. But starting in the spring of 1992, Schultz found his niche coaching boys baseball. The fit didn’t surprise anyone. Schultz had played baseball at nearly every level, most of that time spent behind the plate. “I was catcher in high school, caught at Eastern Illinois University for one year, at Lewis & Clark for one year and at McKendree College for two years,” Schultz said. While at McKendree, Schultz was named MVP in 1985. “The catcher’s position has always been a favorite of mine to coach,” Schultz said, adding that he has had the joy of teaching some very talented players at that position. Schultz has accumulated a 567-336-1 record in his years. “I had thought 600 wins was a possibility, but COVID came along and we lost last season,” he said. The attitude of the game has changed, according to Schultz. “The first few years I coached, those teams were hitting around 60 home runs each year,” he said. “But, several injuries occurred with the ball jumping off the bat, and the IHSA outlawed BBcor bats. We had to switch to small ball. I was never a bunt and squeeze play coach, but we had to learn.” Schultz said the stat he is most proud of from this more than three decades of coaching would be the 47 players who have gone on to play college ball. “The game is all about the players, and we have always had a bunch of good, good players,” Schultz said. “Even the players who didn’t get to play in every game had a role. They were more important to the success of the program than they realize.” Schultz has coached for 33 years and Mark Allen has

Highlights of the Schultz era JOHN SCHULTZ been his assistant for more than 20 of those years. “I have had great support on the field and at home,” he said. “My wife, Kim, has always supported me and the coaching.” Schultz said he has always tried to pick up a few construction jobs during the summers and plans to focus on his carpenter skills during his retirement.

Q Coached the PCS Braves to the Elite 8 in 1996. Q Quincy Herald Whig Coach of the Year, three times, 1994, 1998 and 2003. Q Coached team Illinois KHQA All Stars twice. Q Coached team Illinois in the IL v. MO All Star Game, assistant 2019 and head coach 2019. Q Inducted into the Illinois Baseball Coach's Hall of Fame in 2018.

By BETH ZUMWALT Pike Press The Pleasant Hill Lady Wolves were to play Valmeyer last night in Pleasant Hill in the first round of the sectional game. Ryan Lowe, coach of the Lady Wolves, said he did not know much about Valmeyer, except that they were the number two seed in their regional. “But we were seeded eighth,” Lowe said. The Lady Wolves claimed the regional title after winning game over Brussels, 10-0, top seeded Raymond Lincoln-Wood,9-3 and Carrollton, 11-8.
