You are asked to back straight up (perpendicular) with your trunk open to the sidewalk. For more information, contact Georga Lingren at 275-2743 (evenings).
Needing help with your yard work? ELM Street Preschooler, Elyse Fisher, makes a contribution to the book collection. She and classmates were present for the unveiling of Ogden’s first Little Free Library.
Take a book, read a book, return a book
Community Service Day is Wednesday, Nov. 13. Ogden Middle School students will be in the community raking leaves the morning of Nov. 13 (weather permitting). If you know of someone in Ogden who would like some help with their yard work, please contact the middle school office at 275-2912.
Now taking Check out the Little Free Library registrations for kindergarten located at 319 W Elm Street Little Free Libraries are popping up all over the world, and now Ogden can be added to the list. The miniature libraries often resemble houses and in this case a church. Housed inside are free books available to anyone, anytime. The basic concept of the Little Free Library is a box full of books where anyone can stop by and pick up a book or two and return the book after it is read. It is purely based on an honor system. The craze started in 2009 in Wisconsin when a man by the name of Todd Bol built a model of a oneroom schoolhouse as a tribute to his mother, a former school teacher who loved reading. He filled it with books and put it on a post in his front yard with a sign that read “free books.” The simple idea has caught on and now four years later there are thousand of little libraries worldwide. A map of each location can be found on the website, littlefreelibrary.org. “Every way we can promote
children reading is beneficial,” says Leone Junck. “The Little Free Library is open for everyone in our community. All ages are welcome to take a book and return the book. It belongs to everybody - neighbors and friends. That’s why we want to take care of it. The library offers a way to share good things to read maybe a favorite book from your childhood or a book you want to recommend to a friend.” Leone, a former school teacher herself, and husband Dave, who constructed this Little Free Library and erected it at the northwest corner of Zion Lutheran Church, will act as stewards of the library, making sure the structure is clean, not leaking and that it always contains books. Because the Little Free Library is on church property, David chose a church design. High school students Sydney Bishop and Garner Rogillio assisted with painting the windows and doors.

I just wanted to thank all Ogden folks who have caught the vision, passion and drive to renew, refresh, grow and develop Ogden into a leader of small communities. WOW! We have made great strides over the past few years with Ogden Legacy, The Lucky Pig, the new medical facility, a renewed and vibrant Fun Days, a new chiropractor, a new Wellness Clinic, a new bank and recently the passing of the no horn zone. WOW! Our mayor, our city council, our superintendent, our school leaders, Legacy members, Fun Days Leaders and many others have put hours of time and effort into launching the start of many great things in Ogden. I’ve certainly missed someone who’s played a role, but if you have a spring of pride building up in your heart and you are silently telling yourself “I was a part of that”, I mean to thank YOU TOO! Thank you! Thank you for your efforts and continued passion to grow our town! At times it’s trying, exhausting, hopeless and frustrating, but you’ve all made it past the first round! Ding, ding! Mission accomplished! But, there is more coming! I have heard someone has the vision for an Ogden Alumni Association which will draw in our Alumni from across the nation closer to what Ogden is doing –brilliant! There’s a property committee working on renewing houses and getting
more housetops in Ogden-brilliant! There’s talk about more bike paths-brilliant! Others would like a pool or a rec facility-how cool would that be? These don’t have to be just visions and dreams. The way it’s going this will be a reality. And with growth comes more income into Ogden. And with more income, comes more growth. And more growth creates income! Does this make sense? The ball is rolling and it’s going to continue to roll. WOW! And it’s all because of those of you who have jumped in and helped play your role. Have you been thinking you’d like to get involved? Do you want to play a role in growing Ogden? Where do you want to help keep this ball rolling? It’s not work if you are having fun! Find your place and we’ll all benefit from your efforts. Wouldn’t it be cool if someday we are on the news where the reporters headline was “Ogden – this community is genuinely rallying together to make their town a home and a place everyone wants to live”. Ogden, you are a great place to live and there’s more to come. Overflowing with JOY that I get to call Ogden HOME! trACY VAN SiCKLe ogden, iA

It’s harvest time in Iowa
Where to register
hAt A differeNCe a week can make! October has been a month of conflicts and crisis, extreme weather and challenges, interspersed with bits of delightful fall weather bringing pleasure and relief. Our government officials are back at work, at least temporarily, and hopefully will be able to come to agreements that will serve the country well in the coming months. Local residents are happy to be back out in the forest, cutting firewood for the winter. Here at the horse sanctuary, the ground has dried out from the heavy rains and we got another couple hundred bales of hay delivered. Life is good. For me personally, life is very good. A few weeks ago my mother was diagnosed with cancer. Her health has been seriously declining over the past several months and my brothers and I have been very worried about her. My older brother lives in our hometown of Newton, and takes care of Mom. After many trips to the doctor, the diagnosis was made and I have been trying to make arrangements to come back to Iowa to spend some time with my family. Last week, after Mom’s appointment with the oncologist, my sister-inlaw called and told me that the cancer is not as serious as originally thought – not that cancer isn’t always serious, but that it’s not quite as much of an emergency or crisis. I can make my travel plans as intended, but without as much anxiety. For that, I am thankful. Sometimes when I have things like this on my mind, it’s hard to be fully present for the day to day work with the horses and the programs. In addition to teaching kids’ lessons and assisting with an equine-assisted learning program for adults with addictions, I’ve been studying for my certification and testing, to become a fully accredited therapeutic riding instructor. I will be taking the test the first weekend of November. This is the first step in my goal of being able to offer more classes here at the horse sanctuary. Sometimes it’s a bit overwhelming. Last week we had 11 persons here one afternoon in the program for persons in addictions rehab. Three clients and the rest were family members. It went well but I felt frustrated after they left. I felt like the time was too short with them, that they needed more hands on time with the horses to fully benefit from our program. Some days, like this, I feel driven to do more, even though we are doing all we can now. The next night I went to a screening of “The Anonymous People,” a documentary about the 23.5 million Americans living in long-term recovery from alcohol and other drug addiction. I arrived at the auditorium just before it started, and was amazed to find that almost every seat was taken. I ended up sitting with a group of the same people who’d been out to the horse sanctuary the previous week for our program. They looked surprised, but happy, to see me there. I realized, as I watched the film, how much I really did care about these people. I have a tremendous amount of respect and admiration for those who seek treatment for addictions and have learned so much from those who have participated in our program. This documentary is part of a grass roots movement to end discrimination and move toward recovery-based solutions. “Recovery Friendly Taos County” started with a coalition of community groups. This was the first I knew of the coalition, though I knew from our program that Taos is a very supportive community for those in recovery. It makes me proud knowing that. Addicts are people, too. Good people that sometimes need extra help to get by, just like the disabled, the poor, and disadvantaged. We all share this world, this community, and it is a blessing to be able to support each other as we go through the challenges of life. Even though it’s been a bit of an emotional roller coaster for me the past few weeks, I’m happy. Life is good. Until next time, Ruth B.

Ruth’s Reflections W
Ask farmers from the area how their crops are yielding this year and they will tell you there are large discrepancies from field to field. A lot depended on when they got the seed in the ground. A really wet spring made for poor planting con-
ditions. Late planted corn struggled from lack of moisture when the summer presented neardrought conditions in spotty areas around the state. Pictured above, farmers combining corn south of Ogden. -Photo provided

Boone County Auditor and Commissioner of Elections Philippe E. Meier is encouraging those who wish to vote in the 2013 City Election on November 5 to register early if they are not already registered or if they have moved and need to update their address since the last time they voted. In order to vote in the 2013 City Election, a voter must be registered. Voters may register on Election Day. However, Meier encourages voters to get registered before Friday, Oct. 25, at 5 p.m. to avoid extra paperwork at the polling site on Election Day. The Auditor’s Office is open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Oct. 25. “Our precinct election officials are ready to assist any voter who needs to register on Election Day,” Meier said. “However, it’s a much easier process if a voter registers before the Oct. 25 deadline.” A voter can still register after the Oct. 25 deadline, but the voter will need more identification. Voters who vote absentee at the Auditor’s Office after the Oct.25 deadline or those who plan to register on Election Day at their polling location will need to show proof of identity and proof of residence. Acceptable proofs for identification must contain a photo and include: • An Iowa driver’s license • Out-of-state driver’s license • Non-driver identification card • US passport All forms of ID must be current and valid and contain an expiration date. Proof of residency can be accomplished with: • Property tax statement • Utility bill • Bank statement • Paycheck • Other government document Voters may cast an absentee ballot at the Boone County Auditor’s Office during normal business hours of 8 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. The office will also be open Monday, Nov. 4 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. For more information about the 2013 City Election contact the Boone County Auditor’s Office at 515-433-0502.

The church of Christ Who are these people? Does God hear sinners? Does God hear the prayer of sinners? Is the sinner’s prayer heard by God? This is a question that many people wonder about. There is a sense in which God knows what sinners do and think because God knows everything. But does God hear them in the sense that he understands, cares, and acknowledges those prayers? That is really the question that is being asked. Consider the following passages in answer to this question: Psalm 34:15-16 “The eyes of the LORD are upon the righteous, and his ears are open unto their cry. The face of the LORD is against them that do evil, to cut off the remembrance of them from the earth.” Psalm 66:18 “If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear me:” Proverbs 15:29 “The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.” Isaiah 59:1-2 “Behold, the LORD’S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save; neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.” 1 Peter 3:12 “For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.” The answer to the question is plainly stated in these passages. God doesn’t hear the prayer of the wicked. See our broadcast on local channel 6 Sundays at 6 pm & Tuesdays, at 7 pm! “In Search of the Lord’s Way”, Sunday at 7:30 am on KCWI, cable Ch. 9!

NOBODY COVERS THE BULLDOGS LIKE WE DO!
Bulldog VB makes it five consecutive wins; host regional game
CONFERENCE CHAMPION TREY THOMPSON
Ogden boys finish first and second at conference meet Lake Panorama’s Par 3 golf course was the location of this year’s WCAC Conference meet. The crowd watched as Ogden runner Trey Thompson moved out ahead of the pack and won the conference championship. Not far behind was teammate Andrew Stumbo. “Our top two runners are running their best races at the right time of the season,” commented Coach Ryan Kobliska. “Trey and Andrew took the top two spots at the conference meet. Trey led most of the race while Andrew made up a lot of ground in the last half a mile to move up from fourth to second.” The Bulldogs finished second as a team last Thursday behind a very strong effort from Panorama. Evan Klicker battled well for position in the second half of the race while Zane Buxton did a great job of hanging with Ogden’s pack of scorers. Coach Kobliska says he’s come a long way since the start of the season. Up next is cross country districts at Eagle Grove Thursday, Oct. 24. The boys are hoping to fare well at this state-qualifying meet. WCAC BOYS TEAM STANDINGS 1. Panorama .......................... 2. OGDEN ............................. 3.

Ogden and Madrid opened the match last Thursday with the same overall records. The 3-1 win at home over the Tigers during Senior Parent Night took Ogden to a 9-13 record and puts them at 4-4 in the conference. The Bulldogs take on Prairie Valley in the first round of Regional play at Ogden Tuesday, Oct 22. at 7 p.m. Ogden is on track to having the best winning season since 2004 and the third best season since 1987. The Bulldogs improved to fifth place in the conference compared to last year’s ninth place finish. “Senior Night is always emotional,” says Coach Shannon Zinnel. “This was a huge win for the team on Senior Night and clinching a 4-4 record in the conference. Ending the regular season with five wins is a great accomplishment.” Zinnel said they had a few more hitting errors than they have had lately, but their consistent serving and kills at key times helped in the win. Jordan Poock had 21 digs for the match and kept Madrid from scoring, allowing the Bulldogs to attack more. Five Bulldogs had 5 or more kills in the match. Kami Wheelock finished with 36 assists. Mallory Melchert led the attack with 12 kills. Abbey Gustafson and Kylie Westberg had 9 kills each followed by Katie Moses’s 8 and Kori Kershner’s 5.

NOBODY COVERS THE BULLDOGS LIKE WE DO!
Bulldogs move to 7-1 with win over highly-ranked Mount Ayr Ogden comes from 13 down and defeats the Raiders 31-22 by AL TRELOAR
REPORTER SPORTS WRITER
T
hE BuLLdOgS Of 2013 are writing their own page in the history book of Ogden football. Underdogs going into Friday night’s game with a Mount Ayr ball club that had been ranked as high as fourth in the state, the Bulldogs overcame some early mistakes and scored a gutsy win that will most likely secure them a home playoff game. Their 7-1 start to the season is the best an Ogden team has enjoyed since 2001. Things got off to a shaky start as Mount Ayr scored on the sixth play of the game and scored again after an Ogden fumble and an interception on their next two series. Down 13-0, the Bulldogs did not panic as they rolled up their sleeves and got back to work, running their offense and scoring on a 5 yard run by Jonathon Thompson and a 9 yard pass from Caleb Frye to Luke West to give the Dogs a 14-13 half time lead. Ogden scored on their next two possessions and Mount Art scored again to make the score 24-22 when Frye found Grant Heineman open over the middle. Heineman caught the strike, broke a tackle, and then showed speed for a big man in taking the pigskin all the way to pay dirt for the clinching score. Mount Ayr mounted a 15 play drive but the Bulldog defense made them use up most of the clock and all of their time-outs in the process, finally taking over on downs with 1:25 to go. Frye took a knee and Ogden tied a bow on their first win over Mount Ayr since 1992. “This was a program win,” said an excited Coach Garrison Carter. “Going on the road to a top 10 ranked team and coming out with a win is something not a lot of teams can do. I’m so proud of our boys’ effort. We got off to a very poor start and it would have been really easy for our kids to fold. They didn’t and that is tremendous for our kids. They have the heart necessary to win big football games. “Despite being undersized at every position I thought our offensive line held up really well, and they did a great job giving Caleb time to throw. Grant Heineman made two huge plays. His final touchdown reception was a tremendous individual effort and it sealed the game for us. “Grant is one of the hardest working, most unselfish kids we

have and it’s so great to see him make huge plays in one of the biggest games he’s ever played in. We’ve been really sound in ball security this season, but we turned it over too much in this game. We put our defense in some really tough spots and I thought they did a great job stepping up and bailing us out at times.” The Bulldogs finish the regular season Friday night at home against Central Decatur. first Quarter Ogden kicked off and ran into trouble right away as Raider Erick Freed returned the kick 39 yards to the Ogden 48. Six plays later quarterback Jacob Sobotka appeared to fumble a third and goal attempt but the officials ruled it crossed the goal line for the score. The kick was good for a Raider 7-0 lead.

Second Quarter Ogden punted the ball at the start of the second quarter and then forced Mount Ayr to punt it back. Passes to Heineman, Jonathon Thompson, and Jake West set up a 5 yard touchdown run by Thompson. Kolton Christle kicked the point and the score stood 137. Ogden appeared to get a tough break when what appeared to be a fumble was ruled not to be, but the defense stepped up again and took over on downs with 5:15 left in the second. An 8 play drive featuring receptions by Luke and Jake West was capped off by a nine yard charge by Thompson to tie the score with 0:40 left to go. Christle’s kick was flawless and the Bulldogs took a 14-13 lead into halftime. Third Quarter Ogden got the ball to begin the second half. Ogden made a couple of first downs before being forced to give the ball back to the Raiders. A very nice punt by Owen Haberer pinned the Raiders back deep. Now it was Mount Ayr’s turn to make mistakes as Sobotka fumbled and Nick Ross recovered on the 11 yard

line. Ogden faced a fourth and four when Frye was forced out of the pocket to the right and threw a floater on the run to Heineman that he gathered in for the touchdown. The kick was good and Ogden had a 21-13 lead. Mount Ayr ran the ball for the next eight straight plays and Sobotka finished the drive with a 5 yard touchdown run. The pass for two points failed and the score became 21-19 Bulldogs, to end the third quarter. fourth Quarter The quarter began badly for the dogs as Jacob Taylor intercepted a Frye pass and returned it to the 11. The Bulldog defense didn’t let them in the end zone however and the Raiders settled for a 34 yard field goal to make the score 22-21 Mount Ayr. Ogden’s next series ended in a field goal attempt by Christle from 22 yards out that was perfect to regain the lead for the Dogs at 24-22. Ogden made yet another defensive stand forcing the Raiders to punt. Five plays later Frye hit Heine-
man who was open over the middle of the field. He shook off a defender and sped away from his pursuers, beating them to the end zone for the touchdown. Christle’s kick was good and the score was 31-22, a nine point lead with 4:52 to go. Christle made another big play when his kickoff found the end zone for a touchback denying the Raiders a possible return. The Bulldog defenders kept the Raiders from getting a big play and ran the clock down, eating up their timeouts in the process. The Bulldogs took the ball over on downs after 15 plays and were able to run the remaining time off the clock to finish off the raiders 31-22.

One more of life’s lessons - Morningside’s big men up front money management
LEFT: Would the “Wheel of Fortune” roll out a year-end bonus for Jacob Hildreth or tell him his computer crashed and he would need to invest in a new one? As in real life, there is always the unexpected.
They are only halfway through their eighth grade year with the biggest issues on their minds, more than likely, high school and getting a license. But this class of Ogden students would be looking far beyond that, even beyond college, if that is their direction of choice. Within the next few years, these same youth will be faced with the decision of college and the financial obligations that accompany that choice. Ogden was fortunate to be selected for the annual Real Life Zone project conducted by IASFAA (Iowa Association of Student Financial Aid Administration), Iowa’s state financial aid association. “The goal of the event is to get eighth graders thinking about real life choices,” says IASFAA Community Outreach Chairman Steve Loven. “They draw their occupation, as well as their marital status and family size. They then proceed from station to station spending their money on housing, utilities, groceries, etc.” He is hoping it will show the students the value of higher education, often meaning higher paying jobs. “Their goal is the same as yours and mine . . . to have money remaining at the end of the month.” The participants were faced with a reality check right away - paying income taxes. Their remaining funds were deposited into a mock checking account. Their hopes were to have a positive balance after passing by all 20 stations. Students watched as housing expenses, utilities, insurance, student loan payments, transportation, and childcare whittled away at their balances. Near the end several were having to make decisions on whether to keep their “smart” phones with data plans or give up internet and cable services. Tough decision for a 14-year-old. And if you were one of the students who drew a low-salaried job, maybe all three are luxuries you cannot afford. Rich Dutcher who helped coordinate the event heard several positive comments from the students. “I can’t remember ever having another activity where I saw the kids that engaged,” said the Ogden school counselor. “Many students talked about having a new appreciation for how much it costs to support children.” And clothing costs, he says were quite a surprise to them. BELOW: Representatives from college financial aid offices assisted students at each of the stations during last Thursday’s “Real Life Zone” event at Ogden Middle School.
The Morningside Mustangs have battled their way into first place atop the nearly 300 NAIA (National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics) schools. An offensive lineman on the Sioux City collegiate football team is former Bulldog Byron
Klauenberg. Klauenberg started as a true freshman last year and helped lead his team to the national championship game, ending their season with a 30-27 over-time loss. The Mustangs are undefeated
at 6-0 with four games to go in the regular season. They will be hosting Briar Cliff this coming Saturday. In weeks two and three of this season, the Mustang’s offensive line was named NAIA Offensive Line of the Week.

Finishing what they set out to do Tara and Rumor Clark hadn’t run a race since high school cross country (2009 and 2011 respectively) but they were willing to tackle the Twin Cities Marathon in an effort to help change lives in Africa. The two sisters ran as members of Team World Vision. “The needs are great, but there was something we could do,” said Tara. “Clean water is something everyone deserves access to and gave us something to race for. $50 provides clean water for one person for a generation. The way we saw it, if people in Africa can walk multiple miles twice a day just to have water to live on, we could run 26.2 of them.” The girls raised over $1,200 for clean water. According to their mother Sherry, Rumor sustained a foot injury three weeks before the race and was unable to finish her training. “But the girls made sure they finished what they’d set out to do - run a marathon,” she said. “They supported each other every step of the way.”

Boone County Snow Ordinance FROM THE OFFICE OF THE COUNTY ENGINEER As the winter season approaches, the County Engineer would like to remind the rural residents and travelers about the County’s Snow Ordinance. Adopted in 1995, this ordinance was implemented due to economics and liability. After a snowfall, the initial effort is to open paved roads at least to one lane traffic as soon as possible. Further opening of hard surfaced roads and the clearing of gravel roads then follows. Normal snow removal hours are 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. When conditions deem necessary, crews will be on the job from 5:00 a.m. until dark. Paved roads will be sanded during normal working hours. Boone County will not provide a “dry” pavement condition. The ordinance advises motorists to drive according to the conditions. Motorists should reduce their speed at least 25 m.p.h. below normal driving conditions. Drivers should use extra caution at intersections, railroad crossings, curves, hills and bridges. A copy of the complete Boone County Snow Removal Ordinance No. 63 is available at the County Engineer’s Office.
