By Rebecca Peter DUNCAN - Couples whirled around the polished ballroom floor of the Duncan Community Center to the lively rhythm of polkas, waltzes and schottishes at the 11th annual Duncanfest. The festival, held Saturday and Sunday, featured polka bands from Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin and Nebraska. Eric Malek, Garner, is one of the organizers of the music festival. Duncanfest is actually a total Duncan community event, according to Malek. “It revolves around old-time music. At one time were five or six bands out of Duncan.� Volunteers from theDuncan and the surrounding area help put on the twoday event. “Most of the people have some kind of tie to Duncan – whether it’s through family or church,� Malek said. “But they all volunteer.� Fans of polka music come from at least 8 or 10 different states and throughout Iowa.

Council accepts Sept. 26 event, pending proof of insurance

ers. We get more and more people coming back every year,� Malek said. “Most of these people have worked

hard all their life, and now they like to go out and have fun.� DUNCANFEST to page 16

By Rebecca Peter GARNER - The Garner City Council learned more about the “Fun and Crazy Day� event planned for the evening of Thursday, Sept. 26, planned by a group of Garner businesses. The “Fun and Crazy Day� is separate from the scheduled Fall Festival on Saturday, Sept. 28. Heath Heimer presented additional information on how the street will be barricaded, a list of businesses who indicated interest in participating, and entertainment for the evening. Plans include blocking off the 200 Block of State Street from 5-8 p.m. The group has booked Ben Lau for musical entertainment. A group of Garner-Hayfield-Ventura students is working to raise money for the University of Iowa Children’s

Hospital, through the Children’s Miracle Network. Vendors who will be participating are those with home-based businesses and businesses not located on State Street, according to Tammy Lennox. “Anyone is welcome to come up,� Lennox said. Council member Deb Schmidt asked if the group has “special event� insurance policy for liability. “We would require the same thing of the Chamber,� she said. “I think the difference is the Chamber, being an organized group, has a master policy,� said Mayor Ken Mick. Here, we don’t have a master group. That’s one of the areas of difficulty. It’s a gray area.� “We’d really like to have the GARNER to page 2

Klemme considers lagoon options By Rebecca Peter KLEMME - Veenstra & Kimm representative Forrest Aldrich reviewed options for compliance with the new DNR discharge permit requirements with the Klemme City Council. The council met Sept.9. The Department of Natural Resources has lowered the ammonia discharge limit from the city’s aerated lagoon system. The City of Klemme has approximately three years in which to be in compliance with the new DNR discharge permit. Options under consideration are: a controlled discharge lagoon sys-

tem and an enhanced lagoon treatment bio-dome system. “We have to make a decision on which system to go with by February,� said Mayor Ken Blank. The controlled discharge lagoon system has an estimated cost of $1.4 million. The bio-dome system has an estimated cost of $800,000. “The thing is, it’s fairly new technology,� the mayor said. “That’s why we want to look into it a bit more.� The city’s current lagoon system is above the new ammonia limits only y three months of the year [early spring] for the discharge permits, he said.

By: Clae Goater Wright County Monitor Jonathon Roelofsen, of Kanawha, was sentenced to two years in prison and given a $1,875 fine after pleading guilty to driving under the influence, second offense. Roelofsen was sentenced on Friday, Sept. 13. Roelofsen, 29, struck Sabrina Reibsamen with his Pontiac Grand Prix while she was walking along a country road on August 17 of last year. Court documents put Roelofsen’s blood alcohol level at .086 the night of the accident. County Attorney Eric Simonson did not charge Roelofson with a traffic

death charge, saying that an investigation by the Iowa State Patrol found that alcohol did not cause the accident. Simonson said that there wasn’t evidence to suggest that Roelofsen was speeding or driving recklessly. Reibsamen, 26, had been working as a certified nursing assistant in Belmond. She had been living with Roelofsen in a farmhouse for about 7 months prior to the accident. In addition to the fine and the prison time, Roelofsen will be forced to pay a 35 percent statutory surcharge, court costs, and restitution to be determined at a later date.

Local Coalition to Prevent Youth Substance Use Awarded Grant BRITT - Garner Asset Project was the recipient of a $75,000 in federal DrugFree Communities (DFC) mentoring grant funds to mentor the Hancock County Wellness Coalition- Substance Abuse Prevention. The coalition will involve and engage residents of Hancock County to prevent substance use among youth. The DFC Program provides grants to community/county coalitions that facilitate citizen participation in local drug prevention efforts. Coalitions are composed of community leaders, parents, youth, teachers, religious and fraternal organizations, healthcare and business professionals, law enforcement, the media, and others working together at the local level. “Research shows that prevention is the most effective tool we have to reduce the terrible consequences associated with drug use among young

people. This new funding will allow Hancock County Wellness CoalitionSubstance Abuse Prevention to help place more young people on the path toward success and enable them to live healthier and safer lives,� said Julie Larson, HCWC Substance Abuse Prevention coalition chair. Hancock County Wellness Coalition- Substance Abuse Prevention will specifically work to address underage drinking and marijuana. A Hancock County Wellness Coordinator will be hired by the Hancock County Wellness Coalition. All inquiries or applicants concerning the position may submit a cover letter, resume and West Hancock School Application to West Hancock High School Principal, Jeff Recker at jrecker@ whancock.org no later than Monday, Sept. 23, 2013 at 5pm.

“There are probably 100 cities in Iowa that are facing the same thing we are,â€? Blank said. “[The DNR] wants to bring everyone into compliance.â€? The council plans to contact the North Iowa Area Council of Governments for assistance with researching grants and other funding sources. “We’re already looking at some funding and finding out that according to our last census, our median household income is too much to qualify for some of the grants that are out there.â€? More information will be collected by Aldrich and public works director Kenneth Weiland on the Enhanced Lagoon Treatment-BioDome system from towns in Iowa currently working with this system. In other business, the Klemme City Council will allow burning of fall yard waste from October 1 to December 1, assuming there will not be a county-wide burn ban. The council approved a liquor license for The Shamrock Restaurant and Lounge. Ken Weiland reported city tree trimming will get underway. Weiland will also check into why the light at the top of the water tower is not working. GARNER from page 1 whole community work together,â€? Schmidt continued. “I think this is a great event. I wish you people would come to the Chamber. Join the Chamber and be on the board of directors.â€? “We need to start something downtown,â€? Lennox said. “That’s the only thing we’re asking. I have to fight the Chamber every time. They know my concerns.â€? “Would you be willing to try again?â€? Schmidt asked. City attorney Phil Garland stated, “I strongly recommend any time the city shuts down a street for any organized event‌that a certificate of insurance be provided by the organizers naming the city as an additional insured.â€? “This is a wonderful event. It’s going to be good for the community,â€? Schmidt said. “All they have to do is have the special event policy pre-

Mark Ricke, Garner Chamber of Commerce board president, and Lisa Formanek, executive director, were also present at the council meeting. “Some of the Chamber board of directors were questioning what was happening,â€? Ricke said. “Why do we pay dues if you support that situation?â€? Chamber of Commerce plans their calendar of events early in the year. “I didn’t feel we could react that quickly,â€? Rick said. The Chamber of Commerce board indicated willingness to work with the group. “I think the Chamber has reached out with an olive branch,â€? Schmidt said. “Now if the other group would reach out‌â€?

“We have no problem working with the Chamber, but the Chamber needs to start working with us,â€? Lennox said. “If the Chamber and the other group can get together, fine, but we should follow the recommendation of our attorney and insurance company and ask that the event provide a certificate of insurance,â€? said Randy Lansing, city administrator. “If that comes through I think it would be sufficient.â€? On a motion by Deb Schmidt, seconded by Lynn Smith, the council voted to accept the Sept. 26 “Fun and Crazy Dayâ€? event pending proof of insurance. In other business: •The council reviewed and approved awarding $2,500 Visual Improvement grant to Ollenburg Motors, 525 Hwy. 18 West, for the company’s façade improvements.

to stop the child doing the bullying and take the child being bullied to a trusted adult. 5. Let your parents know what is happening at school. Parents: Bullying as a behavior is not to be accepted in any situation. Encourage your children to make friends with other children who may seem marginalized or left out of other groups. Avoid using labels to identify any child. For example, rather than saying “Johnny is a bully�, say “Johnny is bullying�. It is a subtle difference but labels like this can be very damaging to a child’s self esteem. Work with your school officials to make them aware of any situation occurring at school. Band together with like-minded parents to assist your children in being part of the solution. Tolerance of differences between children and families is taught first at home.

With the record-breaking hot temperatures we’ve been experiencing across the state over the past few weeks, it’s great to finally have some relief. You can’t beat Iowa in the fall. I’m happy to be swapping the record heat and humidity for Iowa’s cool and crisp autumn temperatures. Earlier this month, David Boyd, the State Court Administrator, announced that Iowa’s clerk of court offices have returned to a full weekly schedule, with office hours of 8:00 am to 4:30 pm, Monday through Friday. Like maintaining our public roadways and ensuring our public’s safety, having an accessible court system for the public is an important responsibility and duty of government. In Iowa, nearly all court cases begin with filing a report with a clerk of court. An efficient and effective court system is critical to a free and prosperous economy. Individuals and businesses need to be confident that their rights and intellectual property will be protected, and if those things are infringed upon, they need to know they will get quick resolution. Iowans do not expect roadblocks when it comes to access to justice. Reports also show that the accessibility and fairness of a state’s court system is something businesses consider when looking at where to locate. For all of these reasons, we were happy to work with Chief Justice Mark Cady this past legislative session to identify the resources needed to restore Iowa’s clerk of court offices to full capacity. This marks the first time Iowa’s court system has operated at full strength since budget cuts were implemented in 2009,

which had a disproportionate effect on rural counties. I’m excited that due to strong budget management, we were able to allocate the necessary funds to ensure Iowans receive timely, high-quality access to justice. In other news, each year Iowa high school juniors and seniors have the opportunity to see first-hand how the legislative process works, by becoming a legislative page. The Iowa House, Iowa Senate, and the Legislative Services Agency each employ pages to help with various duties. As the House Majority Leader, I am privileged to have my own office page each year. My page helps me with various office duties, including constituent correspondence, answering my phone, and generally helping to ensure a smooth operation. Pages are paid and most schools grant credit for a student’s work in the Legislature. Many pages go on to become clerks, work in one of the Legislature’s offices, such as the Legislative Services Agency, or even become legislators themselves. I highly encourage young people to consider this experience. If you know of a high school junior or senior that may be interested in applying, applications are due no later than Friday, October 4, 2013. Interviews will be held the week of October 21. To receive more information or an application, visit: https://www. legis.iowa.gov/Agencies/pageInfo. aspx. As always, I appreciate hearing your thoughts and concerns. If you have any feedback, please don’t hesitate to contact me at linda.upmeyer@legis.iowa.gov or 515-2814618.

By Rebecca Peter KANAWHA - The Kanawha City Council recently heard a proposal for construction of permanent public restrooms at the city park. Wayne Rietema, representing the Kanawha Youth Activities Inc., approached council about the possibility, Sept. 10. Currently, the city has provided a portable restroom at the park during the summer months. Mayor Terry Johnson will appoint a committee to work on project. The committee will report back to the council in October. The concept of a permanent public restroom at the park has been considered on and off for several years, according to Ray Bassett, councilman. Potential sources of funding include left over balances from the 1999 Kanawha Centennial Celebration. The committee would have to research additional grant funding sources for such a project. Curbing potential vandalism at such a facility is a concern, Bassett noted. The council discussed the need for new signs for the city hall and public library. Council members Nancy Litch and Sherrie Johnson are working on this project and will bring ideas to the next meeting. Litch invited citizens to submit ideas for the new signs. City officials voted to proceed with repairs to the roof at city hall. The current rubberized membrane

surface of the roof has shrunk and is pulling on the parapet walls and pulled some of the concrete blocks out of place. The blocks will be reset, the membrane cut, and another piece put in. That should add about another ten years in the life of the city hall roof, according to Litch. Sadler Construction will do the repair work for $9,750. The council discussed keeping the time frame for open burning yard waste during the spring and fall as short as possible. Currently, the mayor decides when to lift the burn ban, usually in the spring and again in the fall, and decides when to re-impose, depending on how wet the spring/fall seasons are. No formal action at the meeting. Citizen Josh Robertson requested a reprieve from a citation for his dogs running loose. The council decided to grant the appeal. City officials also heard from citizen Bernie Blank during the public forum portion of the meeting. Blank

was not in favor of the salary increase approved by the council in August for Police Chief Mark Hennigar. In other business, the Kanawha City Council: •Approved a motion by council person Sherry Johnson to amend the minutes from the August 13 meeting. The was amendment was to “reflect that she did ask as to why the ad had not been put in the paper for potential officers, and therefore not having an ad run, we did not have any candidates or applications and therefore we did not know what kind of candidates would be available for the job. This motion did not receive a second.â€? •Appointed Glenda Cooper to the Kanawha Public Library board, Cooper fills a vacancy created by the resignation of Carol Rucher. •Accepted the bid of $410 from Lodin Lawn Care for fall spraying of parks and two city lots. •Approved the annual street financial report.

THE

QUESTION: Now that school is back in session, I am concerned about my child being picked on and teased at school. What can I do as a parent? ANSWERS by: Marcia Ring, PhD, ARNP, providing treatment and care in behavioral medicine for adolescents, adults, couples and families at the medical clinics in Britt and Garner. When one child or a group of children tease, pick on, threaten, and/ or hit another child, the behavior is called bullying. Left to continue, children who bully others and/or experience bullying are at greater risk for depression and suicide. Children who watch with or without adding to the bullying behaviors can add power to the situation, making the bullying behaviors worse. It is crucial children be taught what to do when bullying behaviors occur. 1. Tell a trusted adult. 2. Do not watch. Leave the situation. Get a trusted adult. 3. Make friends with the children experiencing bullying. 4. Get a group of kids together

HCHS flu vaccination schedule for 2013 BRITT - Hancock County Health System (HCHS) will provide residents with multiple opportunities to get their flu vaccination for the 2013-2014 flu season. Flu season usually begins in Oct. and can last through May. During this time, flu viruses are circulating in the population. An annual seasonal flu vaccine (either the flu shot or the nasal-spray flu vaccine) is the best way to reduce the chances that you will get seasonal flu and lessen the chance that you will spread it to others. When more people get vaccinated against the flu, less flu can spread through the community. According to Denise Hiscocks, Director of HCHS Community Health, “the seasonal flu vaccine protects against three influenza viruses that research indicates will be most common during the upcoming season. This year’s vaccine will protect you against influenza B viruses, influenza A (H1N1) viruses, and influenza A (H3N2) viruses.� It takes the body about two weeks after receiving the vaccination for the body to develop the antibodies that protect against the viruses. No appointments are necessary but it is recommended to complete the Flu Vaccination Consent Form prior to visiting a Flu Clinic. This form may be found online at www.trustHCHS. com. Forms will be available at the Flu Clinic as well. Pricing for Flu Vaccine is $25, Flu Mist is $30 and Pneumonia Vaccine is $94. Please be sure to bring your insurance card so insurance can be filed. Below is the schedule of the Community Flu Clinics. Monday, Sept. 23 8:30 to 11:30 a.m. Britt Medical Clinic and 3 to 6 p.m. Garner Medical Clinic Tuesday, Sept. 24

Sit for a moment before getting out of bed. • Wear sturdy, well-fitting shoes with low heels and non-slip soles. • See an eye specialist once a year. Poor vision can increase your chances of falling. • Be aware that some medications have side effects that can cause dizziness. • Increase physical activity - regular exercise increases balance and strength. Follow these tips to make living areas safer and help reduce the risk of falls: • Use non-slip mats in the bathtub and on shower floors. • Have grab bars installed next to the toilet and in the tub or shower. • Have handrails on both sides of stairways. • Improve lighting in the entire home. • Remove tripping hazards like throw rugs and clutter in walkways. Falls Prevention Awareness Day events are scheduled at the State Capitol from 10:30 a.m. until noon Sep.r 23. For more information about falls prevention, visit www.idph.state.ia.us/ FallPrevention/. For more resources for older Iowans and/or disabled adults, visit www.iowaaging.gov.

Cardinals earn another shutout

There’s been a lot of speculation by local sports fans wondering just how good is the GHV football team. The Cardinals have started the season with some amazing numbers after posting Friday’s 59 – 0 victory at West Fork. Friday’s win over the Warhawks marked the final non-district contest of the season for GHV, so the road to the playoffs officially begins this Friday. For the third week in a row GHV used a big first quarter to take control of the game. After forcing West Fork to punt four plays into their initial possession of the game, the Cardinal offense needed only five plays to score their first touchdown of the night. Logan Miller found the goal line on a 15-yard rushing play and Braden Meints added the PAT kick to give GHV a 7 – 0 lead only three minutes into the game. The Cardinal defense continued to control the Warhawks, forcing another three-and-out and giving GHV good field position again. This time the Cards needed only two plays to score as Spencer Shaw and Shawn Murphy connected for a 49-yard touchdown pass. Logan Miller added the two-point PAT and GHV’s lead increased to 15 – 0 less than five minutes into the game. The Cards added one more score to their tally four minutes later as Nic Tusha bulled six yards for a GHV touchdown. Miller’s two-point PAT extended the margin to 23 – 0 as the second period began. That quarter was almost a carbon copy of the first, with the Cardinals putting three touchdowns on the board while shutting down the West Fork offense. Braden Meints got back into the action scoring on a six-yard touchdown run and then adding the two-point PAT. Later in the period, Spencer Shaw scampered 17 yards for a Cardinal TD followed by Meints’ twopoint PAT. Mark Wellik then found the goal line late in the first half on a five-yard touchdown run. Meints’ kicked the PAT this time, putting the Cardinals comfortably ahead at 46 – 0 by intermission. Harley Forry’s 59-yard return of the second half kickoff gave GHV another opportunity for a quick Cardinal score. On the second play from scrimmage in the third quarter Tyler Buck rolled 21 yards for another GHV touchdown. The humbled Warhawks seemed to see everyone go wrong for them as they fumbled on their first play from scrimmage on their ensuing possession, giving the Cards great field position again. GHV needed only two plays to score again, this time with Miller getting the call on a nine-yard touchdown run. Meints’ PAT kick raised the score to 59 – 0. With the clock running continuously thanks to the mercy rule, the third and fourth quarter quickly expired as GHV gave the bench players an opportunity to see action.

The Cardinal offense had another huge night, finishing with 315 rushing yards and 49 passing yards. Logan Miller led GHV with 157 yards on 18 carries followed by Braden Meints with 46 yards on four carries. Nic Tusha and Tyler Buck gained 39 and 27 yards respectively while Spencer Shaw and Mark Wellik each ran for 22 yards. For the third week in a row the Cardinal defense completely shut down their opponent’s running game. West Fork finished the night with -12 yards on the ground but did manage to complete eight passes for 71 yards. The Warhawks committed four turnovers in the game as Mark Wellik recovered a pair of fumbles, Colton Knutson jumped on a fumble and Nic Tusha intercepted a Warhawk pass. Knutson finished the night with four solo tackles to lead the GHV defense followed by Allan Devora and Meints each with two solos and two assists. Cardinal coach Scott Van Dusseldorp is pleased with the performance of his team, but also knows there are tougher opponents ahead on the schedule. “I am very proud of how the players played in this game. We continue to improve and are fixing our mistakes. Our offensive line did a very nice job and our running backs played well finding holes to run through. Defensively we were able to play very fast and did a fantastic job. This week we will be find out a lot about ourselves when we play Spirit Lake. The defending state champs will be coming to us and we will have to play a very solid, mistake free football game.� How big is Friday’s district-opener at home against Spirit Lake? As the defending Class 2A state champions the Indians, like the Cardinals, are undefeated at 3 – 0 three weeks into the season. Spirit Lake is the top-ranked offensive team in Class 2A with 592 rushing yards and 707 passing yards while the Cards are the top ranked rushing team with 971 yards. The Cardinals have outscored their opponents this season 163 – 0 in three games while the Indians have outscored their foes 146 – 0. After three weeks of action Spirit Lake is ranked fourth in Class 2A while GHV is ranked 10th. All things considered, Friday’s contest should be a real crowd-pleaser while testing the Cardinals’ ability to perform in the role of underdog.

CWL Football picks up second straight win The CWL Panther football team earned their second straight victory last Friday over CAL 61-15. CWL is now 2-2 overall and 1-0 in district action. “We started off quickly and never really let up in this one. We did what we wanted to do early in this game and the kids played hard throughout the night,� said Coach Ryan Wagner. “We were able to score 53 first half points and move some kids around and rest some of the kids some. The line did a nice job of opening running lanes for our backs as we rushed for over 400 yards on the ground.� Esden Carroll found the end zone for the first two Panther touchdowns. E. Carroll ran 42 yards for the first score on the night and then again for 39 yards. Grant Carroll ran in the final two first quarter touchdowns for CWL, both one-yard punches. E. Carroll ran in the final four touchdowns for the Panthers, three in the second quarter (26 yards, 3 yards, 22 yards) and the final one in the fourth on a 40 yard carry. Of the eight Panther touchdowns,

CWL was successful on six of seven conversion attempts and went one for one on PAT attempts. E. Carroll and Sam Ludwig ran in two conversions apiece, G. Carroll and Darek Garman each had one, while John Genrich kicked the extra point. CAL earned their 15 points with a 25-yard field goal in the first, an eight-yard touchdown in the third and a two-yard TD in the fourth. Esden Carroll led the team in rushing with 293 yards on 19 carries, which earned Carroll a spot in the CWL record books breaking the old record by five yards. Grant Carroll rushed for 60 yards on 11 attempts, Garman 20 yards on 8 carries and Ludwig 19 yards on six attempts. Ludwig connected five passes on six attempts for 55 yards and one two-point conversion. Genrich caught two passes for 38 yards, E. Carol two for two yards and Jared Haler one catch for 15 yards. Genrich kicked off for the Panthers eight times for 293 yards, while G. Carroll and E. Carroll returned one kickoff each for 13 and 12 yards re-

spectively. Garman led the defense with 14 tackles (seven solo/seven assists) on the night including a sack shared with Grant Carroll. G. Carroll also wrapped around for 13 tackles (three solo/10 assists) and snatched two interceptions. E. Carroll earned 11 tackles (four solo/seven assists), Bennett Jensen six (three/three) and three apiece from Genrich, Chandler Vorland, and Stefan Chambers. “We need to continue to work on getting better and get a win on the road this week at Laurens. It will be another long bus trip and hopefully the two trips we had earlier this year will help prepare us,� noted Wagner. “It would be nice to get a 2-0 start in our district. We will work on some new things this week and continue to work on areas that concern us. The kids are really starting to play well as a team and they are starting to have some fun, which is great to see in our final season.� The Panthers will return the following week, September 27th for their homecoming and FINAL home football game in school history.

Eagles fall to AGWSR The West Hancock football team opened their district schedule last Friday on the road. The Eagles fell to #4 AGWSR in Ackley 0-35. Not only is it a young rebuilding year for the Eagles, but West Hancock has opened their 2013 season against three teams that are currently ranked; GHV #8 Class 2A, Saint Ansgar #6 in 1A and AGWSR #4 Class A. Coach Sanger continues to work on getting his guys to believe they can do it and focus on improving where they can. Senior, Mark Roth led the Eagles in rushing with 75 yards on 13 carries, while freshman Jordan Weiland rushed for 50 yards on 12 attempts and QB Connor Sonius kept the ball five times for 23 yards. Roth also led on defense with 10 tackles, two solo and eight assists. Cole Weiland wrapped around for nine solo tackles, as sophomore Vicente Gonzalez collected eight tackles (three solo/five assists), and juniors Trevor Nalan and Jordan Savoy both recorded six tackles apiece. Sophomore Ricardo Ibarra claimed the only tackle for a loss on the night. Sophomore Nelson Barranca returned three kicks for 54 yards

for the Eagles. Despite another tough loss for West Hancock, the Eagles will carry on and have shifted their focus to this Friday night’s homecoming game against the 2-1 Broncos of Come Join Worry-Free Living Belmond-Klemme. The homecoming parade will take place around the football field Friday at 2:30p.m. Kickoff is slotted for 7:00p.m. with the presentation of the homecoming court and parents at halftime and dance folIndependent lowing the game*until 12:30a.m. Living for Seniors

Cardinal Spikers Gain Two NIC Wins After opening the season with two victories, the GHV volleyball team continued their winning ways last week as the Cardinals posted a pair of North Iowa Conference wins. On Tuesday the Cards traveled to North Iowa for a 3 – 0 sweep over the Bison and then blasted Newman on Thursday in a three-game match at home. GHV’s trip to Buffalo Center on Tuesday proved to be an early night for the Cards. After winning the first set 25 – 18 the Cards needed to rally for a 25 – 22 victory in game two. That loss seemed to burst the bubble for North Iowa as the Cardinals rolled to a 25 – 9 win in the third set to earn the match victory. Emily Mathews finished the night with 14 kills and five blocks to lead

GHV in the win. Courtney Younge added 23 assists, four aces on 22 of 24 serves and a pair of kills while Mallory Van Oort picked up five digs while serving perfectly in a dozen attempts. Miranda Frederick had five digs and eight of nine serves and Shelby Rayhons finished with four digs, two kills and 14 of 16 serves. Completing the individual leaders were Sydney Younge with three kills along with Emily Spilman, Hannah Lau and Mackensie Van Gerpen all with two kills. Cardinal coach Kelsey Steffens commented, “We struggled with our serve in game one, so it was great to see the fight, determination, and focus to finish it in three. The girls are playing very well at this time of the season.�

GHV improved to 3 – 0 in North Iowa Conference play with a three set victory over Newman on Thursday. The Cardinals had little difficulty against the Knights recording wins of 25 – 10, 25 – 13 and 25 – 4. Mathews finished the night with four digs, three blocks, four ace serves and three kills to lead the Cardinals. Mallory Van Oort recorded seven digs and scored four aces while serving perfectly in 24 attempts and Courtney Younge was credited with 15 assists with two aces on 12 of 13 serves. Shelby Rayhons scored three kills with five digs and eight of nine serves, Rachel Formanek added an ace on five of six serves and Hannah Lau scored on nine kills. “Our focus this week was on

defense and coverage of our hitters,� noted Steffens. “We were able to pass the ball into target area which allowed us to run a quick and aggressive offense. We are looking forward to our first tournament this weekend at Belmond-Klemme.� The Cards are now 7 – 2 after action at the weekend tournament. Details from Saturday’s tournament play are found in a separate story in the Leader Sports section. GHV has a huge match this week against league-leading Forest City. The Indians are currently 3 – 0 in NIC play and at this point in the season appear to be challenging Lake Mills for the title run. GHV’s schedule doesn’t get any easier as the Cards will travel to NIC favored Lake Mills on Thursday.

GHV got a look at some good competition on Saturday at the Belmond volleyball tournament. The Cardinals faced their first quality opponents of the season as their pool at the tournament was loaded with some very strong area teams. It was a challenge from the beginning with GHV facing 11th-rated (2A) North Butler in the Cardinals’ first action of the day. It didn’t get any easier for the Cards with North Central Conference powerhouse Iowa Falls/ Alden on the schedule for their second match. Also in the pool was West Fork, a scrappy squad that had just beaten North Butler earlier in the week. Cardinal coach Kelsey Steffens couldn’t have asked for a better effort during the day’s first match as GHV opened with a 21 – 5 win in set one against North Butler. The Cards then won the match with a 21 – 12 victory in the second set. Emily Mathews recorded five ace serves against the Bearcats while picking up a pair of kills. Mallory Van Oort had a great match from the serve line, scoring two aces on a perfect 15 of 15 serves. Shelby Rayhons and Sydney Younge were also perfect serving five and three attempts respectively. Courtney Younge was credited with seven assists while Hannah Lau recorded three kills. Coach Steffens credited the girls with a strong start on a Saturday morning. “The girls came out ready

to play and were able to keep the Bearcats indecisive on defense as things went well for us offensively.� The Cardinals were looking forward to facing Iowa Falls/Alden since the Cadets are a very powerful team that can provide a good tune up for tough NIC games that lie ahead. The Cards looked very good in the first set of the match in spite of dropping a 21 – 19 decision to the Cadets. GHV then rebounded to record a 21 – 17 win in game two but couldn’t keep the momentum rolling as Iowa Falls won the match with a 15 – 8 decision in the third set. Mathews played big for the Cardinals, recording 10 kills and four aces on nine of 11 serves. Courtney Younge added an ace on nine of ten serves with 17 assists. Freshmen Hannah Lau and Mackenzie Van Gerpen chipped in three kills apiece while Shelby Rayhons and Mallory Van Oort were perfect in nine and 12 attempts respectively. Steffens was please with her team’s play in spite of the loss. “After being down 9-5 the girls focused in on serve receive and had an excellent game two. IFA’s strong servers kept us from our offense in game three.� GHV needed a win against West Fork in their final pool match of the day to insure advancing to bracket play. Sitting and watching a couple of matches may have taken some of the momentum away from the Cards as they struggled against the Warhawks in the first set. GHV

trailed most of the way, but rallied for a 22 – 20 win in game one. The Cards then took care of business in the second set to advance with a 21 – 13 win. Probably the most impressive stat from the match was the Cardinals’ performance at the serve line. Six different Cards stepped up to serve in the match and all six of them connected on 100% of their attempts. Courtney Younge scored three aces on 11 serves while recording 15 assists. Emily Mathews recorded eight kills to go with her five serves followed by Shelby Rayhons with an ace in six serve attempts along with five kills. Miranda Frederick had an ace serve in her five attempts and Mallory Van Oort also served perfectly five times. Hannah Lau added nine kills on the way to the win. After seeing Belmond play mediocre volleyball through pool play the Cardinals were no doubt shocked when the Broncos came out on fire in their semi final match. B-K surprised everyone with a 21 – 13 win over GHV in game one and then made an even bigger impression by surging ahead 9 – 0 in the second set. The Cardinals chipped away at the Bronco lead to eventually tie the score. GHV then finished strong on the way to a 21 – 18 decision. The Broncos apparently ran out of magic in the third set and GHV coasted to a 15 – 6 win. Shelby Rayhons had an amazing performance at the serve line, recording three aces on 16 of 17 serves. Mathews added four aces on six of eight serves to go with 11 kills and Courtney Younge dished out 19 assists to go with two aces on seven

of nine serves. Coach Steffens was relieved to see her team handle the adversity. “The girls had to work for each point in this match as BK put up tough blockers. It was great to see the determination in game two when the girls were able to fight back from a 9-0 deficit to win the game and then continue on to win the match.� The title match was a rematch of earlier pool play between GHV and Iowa Falls/Alden. The previous two matches seemed to take their toll on the Cards as they had difficulty staying with the Cadets. Iowa Falls pulled away for a 21 – 14 win in the first set and then held off a Cardinal surge to win game two 21 – 16. Courtney Younge turned in an impressive performance from the serve line recording two kills on 14 of 14 serves while dishing out 12 assists. Van Gerpen, Mathews and Rayhons paced GHV at the net scoring six, five and three kills respectively. Coach Steffens saw improvement in her team throughout the day and was happy with the opportunity to try some different combinations. “Playing Iowa Falls twice this weekend was a great opportunity as we go into this week playing Forest City and Lake Mills. Both teams will have aggressive swings and a strong defense and Iowa Falls provided us with a competitive match to help us prepare.�

Jessica Neilson earned two digs, while Stephanie Nielson and Jordan Nygaard served perfect going 3/3 and 4/4 respectively. “For not playing in a few weeks and having some sickness with our low numbers, we were happy to see that we were able to set the ball up more tonight and adapt to some changes in our line up,� aid Coach Wagner. “The girls are also playing more aggressively on the court and are starting to put things together on offense as well as defense.� Thursday, the Panthers traveled to Graettinger where they dropped three sets 24-26, 12-25, 20-25. Grein led the offense with four kills and one block. Nygaard put down two kills, Haler and McPeak each added one kill.

The West Hancock Eagle volleyball team was busy in action last week with five matches. The Eagles opened their week at home against Mason City Newman Tuesday where they earned their first victory of the season 3-0 over the Knights 25-15, 25-15, 25-20. West Hancock then headed to Belmond to take on Belmond-Klemme Thursday where they fell 1-3 to the Broncos 8-25, 22-25, 25-21, 14-25. The Eagles finished the week with a tournament back in Belmond where they recorded 1-2 record on the day. West Hancock beat CWL 2-0 (21-13, 21-13), and fell to Hampton-Dumont 1-2 (11-21, 21-17, 5-15), and BelmondKlemme 1-2 (21-16, 11-21, 10-15). The Eagles came out strong last Tuesday against Newman in the shut out. Macey Harms led the offense with six kills, while Jessica Ohrt put down four and Whitney Burgardt three. Natasha Peterson dished up seven assists to her hitters and Ohrt shut out two Bronco attacks with two solo blocks on the night.

Burgardt led the defense with five digs; teammates Cara Francis and Mallory Becker each added three digs apiece. “Our serving really helped us against Newman,� said Coach Erin Brown. “We served at 93%. We really mixed it up with switching to a 6-2 offense, it leaves more players on the bench but everyone stayed positive with the change.� Next, the Eagles traveled to Belmond where they got off to a slow start dropping the opening set 8-25. West Hancock quickly rebounded to come within three points of the win in set two, 2225. The girls dug deep in the third set for the win to keep the match alive 25-21, but were unable to force the fifth match by dropping the fourth set 14-25. Rachel Smith led in kills with four, Burgardt added three, and both Ohrt

and Harms put down two kills apiece. Becker dished out five assists to her hitters, while Peterson added three. Ohrt put up a wall for two solo blocks. Harms was strong at the service line serving 100% 18/18 with five aces. Peterson and Cara Francis each recorded two aces, while Ohrt and Burgardt earned one ace apiece. Cara Francis and Burgardt led defensively with three digs each, Becker and Bailey Eisenman chipped in two digs apiece. “We had too many missed serves when we needed them and our serve receive was weak, we beat ourselves out there,� said Coach Brown. “Volleyball is a mental sport, we need to find the strength to fight through mistakes and move forward. We will continue to make adjustments and we will find the right combination.� After a tough loss Thursday, West Hancock rebounded with a win over CWL on Saturday. Harms and Smith led at the net with four and three kills respectively. Emily Leerar and Becker ran the offense recording four and three assists each. Peterson and Katelynn Cox each had a dig for the Eagles, while Harms and Ohrt each found the ball for one solo block apiece. Ohrt and Dusty Kraft served strong for their team as Ohrt earned five aces and Kraft three. Next, the Eagles faced HamptonDumont where serving would be their achilles heel. West Hancock missed a total of 20 serves in their 1-3 loss to the Bulldogs. Smith put down three kills, Harms added two. Becker set up four assists, while Burgardt and Peterson earned four digs apiece. Cara Francis dished out six service aces. The Eagles wrapped up their day with a close three set loss to BelmondKlemme. Cara Francis and Harms led with three kills apiece, Kraft and Ohrt added two kills each. Becker put up six assists, while Peterson and Burgardt dug up four attacks each. Three eagles served 100% as Cox went seven for seven from the line with one ace, Ohrt 6/6 and Burgardt 4/4. C.

Kara Hauswirth continues to do well stepping in to the main setting role and controlling the court. Our hitters are

Cardinal coach Jeff Short looked for positives in the second place finishes. “The guys ran well but Osage ran better. Strong competition will make us better throughout the year. The girls team was running without Tiara Van Gerpen, but they ran well

considering the conditions of the day. The added pressure of running without one of our top runners is good for the rest of the team and that experience will continue to improve the team.� The Cardinals next action will be a long road trip to Huxley on Monday followed by Thursday’s trip to Clear Lake.

for second place in both boys’ and girls’ action at the Belmond crosscountry meet on Tuesday. The Cardinal boys will no doubt be dueling with Osage several times this season and the Green Devils will always provide a test for GHV/ WH. The Cards defeated Osage last week in a very close contest, but the Green Devils were too much this time around as Osage topped GHV/ WH 40 – 44. Clear Lake was a distant third with 88 points. Joel Toppin led the Cardinals with a second place finish in 16:31. Chase Smith finished fourth for GHV/WH with a time of 16:59 followed by Derek Brown in 11th place with a time of 18:12. Logan Dalbeck followed Brown into the chute placing 12th overall in 18:13 while A.J. Arnold completed the team score in 15th place with a time of 18:35. Completing the varsity roster were Anthony Siegrist (17th, 18:48) and Derek Lonneman (19th, 19:10). In girls’ action the Cardinals were unable to outrun Osage as the Green Devils finished in first place with 42 points followed by GHV/WH with 48 points. Third place Eagle Grove was well behind the leaders with 105 points. GHV/WH finished the day with three runners in the top ten as Maria Gonzales placed second in a time of 18:16, Maddie Tusha was fourth in 18:43 and Maribel Zamago was fifth in 18:47. Completing the team total for the Cards were Kelly Anderson (14th, 19:19) and Bri Bier (23rd, 20:29). Also running on the varsity roster for the Cards were Rebekah Larson (24th, 20:31) and Elizabeth Zamago (25th, 20:32). As always GHV/WH brought an abundance of junior varsity runners to the race. Competing in JV boys’ action for the Cardinals were Jeff O’Brien (third, 20:27), Matt

Yard and Garden: Grape Harvest

Producers Benefit from Forage and Pasture Education Current trends in agriculture are forcing Iowa beef producers to raise more beef from fewer forage acres. According to the USDA Census of Agriculture, nearly 20 percent of Iowa pasture land was converted to cropland from 2002 to 2007. High grain prices from 2008 to 2012 have continued or accelerated this trend. Beef producers must improve productivity of the available pastures through better management to increase beef production per acre of land. Producers say forage and grazing educational programs offered by beef specialists with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach are making it possible to do just that. Extension’s response: From 20072012, nearly 1,100 beef producers across Iowa attended more than 120 pasture and grazing programs sponsored by ISU Extension and Outreach. When participants were surveyed, 70 percent of respondents said they improved the amount of beef produced per acre of forage by at least 20 percent; 12 percent improved their beef production per acre by 50 percent

or more. Producers made changes: On average, the respondents attended three educational events over five years and, as a result, made changes in their operations: • Fifteen percent subdivided pastures to rotationally graze livestock and 8 percent plan to subdivide pastures. (Twenty-four percent already had this practice in place.) • Nine percent said participating in the programs helped them improve pasture fertility; 6 percent plan to make fertility changes. • Fifteen percent started frost seeding legumes and an additional 7 percent plan to frost seed legumes. Thirteen percent body condition scored cows to monitor performance as a result of attending these programs and 6 percent plan to start body condition scoring. • More than one-fourth of the participants made changes or plan to make changes to their watering systems as a result of what they had learned. • Stockpiling pasture for winter grazing was a practice 13 percent

had in place when they attended the programs; another 13 percent started stockpiling after attending a forage grazing program, and 15 percent plan to start stockpiling for winter grazing. Putting such actions in place improves productivity and is an incentive to keep marginal land in forage production. Producers said the practices they implemented as a result of the programs had provided a median economic value of more than $1,000 per operation. Increasing forage production on marginal land benefits the producer AND the rest of Iowa. It improves economic activity in rural Iowa when forage acres are more profitable, and reduces soil erosion and improves water quality when grasslands are wellmaintained.

Webinar Offers Tips to Help Children Succeed in School

AMES — Home gardeners can successfully grow grapes in Iowa with a good planting site, hardy varieties (cultivars) and proper culture. Horticulturists with Iowa State University Extension and Outreach share grape harvest time tips. When should grapes be harvested? Grapes should not be harvested until fully ripe. The best indicators of ripeness are color, size and flavor. Depending on the cultivar, the berry color changes from green to blue, red or white as the grapes approach maturity. At the fully ripe stage, the natural bloom on the berries becomes more pronounced. However, color should not be the sole basis for harvesting grapes. Many cultivars change color long before the grapes are fully ripe. Size and firmness are other useful indicators of ripeness. The individual berries should be full-sized. They also become slightly less firm to the touch at maturity. The final and most reliable test for ripeness is flavor. Taste a few grapes when size and color indicate the fruit is approaching maturity. If they are not sweet, leave the clusters on the vines. Grapes do not develop full flavor when harvested before completely mature. The berries in my grape clusters are not ripening evenly. Why? Several factors could be responsible for the uneven ripening of the berries within a cluster. Possible causes are over-cropping (too many grape clusters on the vine), a potassium

deficiency, moisture stress or 2,4-D damage. Over-cropping is the most common cause for home gardeners. An average grapevine may have 200 to 300 buds that are capable of producing fruit. If grapevines are not pruned properly in late winter, the number of fruit clusters may be excessive. The vine is unable to ripen the large crop properly, resulting in uneven ripening of the berries within the clusters. In Iowa, 60 is the maximum number of buds that should remain on a grapevine after pruning. What are the proper storage conditions for grapes? Grapes can be stored for one to two months at a temperature of 32 to 36 degrees Fahrenheit and relative humidity

of 90 to 95 percent. For most home gardeners, the refrigerator is the best grape storage location. Place grapes in perforated/vented plastic bags and store in the refrigerator. How can I keep birds from eating my grapes? The best way to prevent birds from eating the grape crop is to place netting over the grapevines. Netting can be purchased at garden centers or through mail-order companies. When placing netting over the grapevines, make sure the netting is secured to the ground to prevent birds from entering from below. To have additional question answered, contact the ISU Hortline at 515-294-3108 or hortline@iastate.edu.

A Successful Flight to the Roadsides By Adam Sears, Natural Resource Biologist By simply getting in your car and taking a drive through the county, you will have a wonderful opportunity to see many beautiful birds that inhabit our roadsides. The roadsides provide many different types of habitat that allow for a variety of bird species to live in them. Each type of habitat appeals to a different bird species for nesting, raising families, hunting for food, and hiding from predators. Today with the expansion of agricultural land, roadsides play an even bigger role than what was once thought of as” just a ditch”. Roadside wildlife is a concept that is becoming quite prevalent across the state of Iowa. In Cerro Gordo County, roadside habitat is an essential part of our conservation efforts to improve overall wildlife quality throughout the county. Although the roadsides may only make up a small fraction of the land these areas can be highly productive for ground laying and low vegetation nesting birds. It is not uncommon to be driving down a gravel road and notice an Eastern Meadowlark perched on a barbed wire fence, or a Killdeer pretending to be injured to lure you away from its nest. You might see a Red-winged Blackbird protecting its territory from an Eastern Kingbird that is just interested in hunting insects, but is perched on a fence much too close for the Red-winged Blackbird’s 236 Bob Buffington; Women – 227 Alma Walker, 225 Samantha Kohner, 176 Becky Stumme; Team Scratch Series – 2862 10th Frame, 2839 Thompson Roofing, 2658 Yohn Ready Mix; Men – 656 Nick Trunkhill, 624 Scott Plagge, 621 Brian Thompson; Women – 588 Samantha Kohner, 550 Alma Walker, 510 Becky Stumme; Team Handicap Game – 1149 Yohn Ready

comfort. Many roadsides are homes to upland game birds such as the Hungarian Partridge and the Ringednecked Pheasant that may also use the roadside as a nesting site. Most of the roadsides that seasonally hold water provide the wetland habitat needed for many species of waterfowl. Some other common roadside birds are the American Goldfinch, Mourning Dove, American Kestrel, Dickcissel, and Redtailed Hawk. One of the ways the Integrated Roadside Vegetation Management staff of Cerro Gordo County Conservation Board promotes a variety of bird species is by planting native vegetation whenever possible to promote a diverse habitat. The staff also minimizes negative impacts to birds by using spot herbicide treatment for noxious

weed control. In the spring of 2011 the staff selected 25 sites in the roadside that provided habitat suited for Eastern Bluebird nesting boxes. The sites selected have been planted and managed with a diverse mix of native wildflowers and grasses. In 2011 and 2012 the nesting boxes were an immediate success having 20 out of 25 of them used each year by Eastern Bluebirds or Tree Swallows. The Cerro Gordo County Conservation Board discourages mowing in the Right of Way. Roadsides with undisturbed cover receive almost continuous nesting from spring until late summer. For additional information contact Cerro Gordo County Conservation Board at (641) 423-5309.

DUNCANFEST from page 1 Malek is a third generation member of the Malek’s Fishermen Band, The band was started over 80 years ago by Syl and Ed Malek as the Malek Brothers Accordion Band. Today second and third generations of the Malek family play in the band. Band members are: Bob Malek, Eric Malek, Kimberly Malek and Ron Hrubes. Other members of the band include Don VanDieten of Indianola, and Jeff Langen, Holka, Minn. The band plays at many festivals throughout the Midwest during the year. “I like the friends that you make,” said Lorna Baldner of Dallas Center. “I like the [Malek’s Fishermen] band. I try to get to the dances they play at.” “I have gone to many of the Duncanfests and do remember the first one they had,” Baldner said. My husband, who died three years ago, could really dance around the floor and we had such a great time not only dancing, but it is the visiting with other dancers and making friends. “If you want to see happy people, go to a dance. If you want to see really happy people, go to a polka.” Baldern’s dancing partner for the afternoon was Norm from Wisconsin. “I go dancing three times a week,” he said. “I like polka music – I really do. People here are from Nebraska, Iowa, Minnesota – I have quite a few friends around here.”
