By Nick Pedley Mix, roll, cut, repeat.

That was the mantra for the assembly line of volunteer noodlemakers at the First United Methodist Church in Thornton last week. A dozen West Fork students from Belva Payton’s food and nutrition class, along with members of the United Methodist Women, spent two afternoons making 80 pounds of homemade noodles Tuesday and Thursday. The finished product will be sold at the UMW’s annual bake sale on Saturday, Nov. 2. “A lot of our members, they’re getting older. All this standing around while we make the noodles gets kind of hard,� said UMW member Shirley Schmidt. “Without the kids’ help, we probably wouldn’t be able to do it.�

Students and UMW volunteers proved to be an efficient team. One group mixed the dough, one group rolled it flat and one group sent it through the slicer to be cut into strips.

The fourth group then spread them out on tables to air dry.

The handmade noodles have become somewhat of a staple at Thornton. The UMW members couldn’t come to a consensus on when they first started making them, but all agreed on one thing: it’s been a while. “A long, long time – put it that way,� said UMW member Karen Ries. “We’ve been making these as far back as I can remember.�

The noodles became a tradition over the years, but so too has the high school students’ help. Payton said she started taking her classes to assist with the annual project eight years ago and hasn’t missed since. “They’ve got so few members, so if we didn’t help them, they wouldn’t be able to do it,� she explained. “We use it as a community service project for the kids and I think they enjoy it.�

The students get a thorough lesson on how to make noodles even though it might not be in the curriculum at school. All that goes into the recipe are eggs, flour, milk, oil and a little bit of elbow grease, which

Below: Fresh noodles were laid on tables to dry over night after they were cut into thin strips. (Photos by Nick Pedley) is much less complicated than some of the other things they’ve cooked up this year. Apple crisp, cake and salsa are just a few things the class has tackled. “There’s a lot of hands-on stuff, which is nice,� said West Fork sophomore Jacy Guerrero.

The students were quite nimble with their work despite being noodle novices – every square inch of the drying tables were covered within an hour of starting. According to Schmidt, the group usually sells out each year and raises around $250 from the noodles alone. All proceeds from the bake sale go towards the UMW’s many projects and betterment initiatives. “I think there’s usually a lot of stuff going on that day [Nov. 2], but we hope people make the circuit and stop by our bake sale,� said Schmidt.

Two vying for Rockwell mayor’s seat Compiled by Nick Pedley Editor’s note: This is Part II of the Pioneer Enterprise’s two-part election special.

Candidates for the Rockwell mayor’s office were mailed a questionnaire at the beginning of the month regarding their background, campaign and platform. Both mayoral candidates, Don Brown and Bill “Spud� Sheldon, returned their responses.

The two men are competing for the spot being vacated by outgoing mayor Steve Karabatsos on the Nov. 5 ballot.

The questions were listed as follows: 1. Provide information on your background—how long you’ve lived in the community, family, current job, etc.

2. Have you ever held elected office or been involved with any type of committee or board?

3. In your opinion, what are the main issues facing the community?

4. What attributes or skills do you bring to the mayor’s office?

5. Are there any projects you’d like to see completed or started by the city?

6. Why are you running?

7. Is there anything else you’d like to add?

The Pioneer Enterprise edited for spelling errors and grammatical mistakes only.

The following is each candidate’s response to the questionnaire. Unanswered questions are denoted with the letters “N/A.�

Don Brown 1. I have lived in Rockwell

since 1985, married, wife Carrie. I have two grown boys.

Self-employed at North Iowa Scuba and B&B Home Improvements. Past city council for four years, and mayor for eight years.

2. One term as city councilman and four terms as mayor, both in Rockwell.

3. Main issue facing Rockwell, as well as all small towns: keeping needed services and business in a small town without having to raise taxes.

Trying to preserve our quality of life.

4. As a business owner, I understand that many things in government need to run like a business, stay within budgets, make cuts where needed, and make things run more efficiently. Plus, with four years on the city council and eight as mayor, I have an understanding of city government.

5. We as a town have done a really good job of bringing in small businesses and new housing, I am glad to have been a part of that. Now we need to focus on existing areas of town, to improve that area, as well as our main street.

We have a strong Chamber of Commerce and Economic Development Corporation that can play a big part in that.

6. To continue on with plans that are currently in place and help provide direction to the council. With over half of the council seats open this year and no incumbents, hopefully I’ll help to guide the new council members along the way.

The Pioneer Enterprise

Mark Waite 1. I am 51 years old and grew up in Mason City. My current employment is Director of Maintenance at the Rockwell Nursing Home where I have been employed for almost 17 years. I am a veteran of the Navy and served four years as a helicopter mechanic.

Larry Wentz 1. I moved to Rockwell in November 2012. My wife Meagen (Scholl) grew up in Rockwell. We have two daughters Addison, 5, and Lexi, 11 months. I work at Rockwell Cooperative Telephone Association as a Technician.

2. I have held a variety of positions on numerous boards and committees. Most notably, I was on the board of directors for the Bethlehem Area Bowling Association and later elected to the Secretary position from 2000-2004. I also served on a committee from 2010-2012 while working at H&R Block focusing on new franchises. The committee was tasked with creating protocols and procedures for converting independent tax businesses to H&R Block offices.

3. My No. 1 issue is road repairs.

The current council has been working diligently towards getting the Madison St. Bridge replaced. They have also contacted the railroad in an effort to repair the two railroad cross-

ings in town. One issue I would like to see revisited is the trash collection in town and how we can modify the policy on excess trash bags by eliminating or modifying the charges for special bags.

4. I have eight years of experience with creating and executing operating budgets. I enjoy talking with people, gathering feedback and turning ideas into policies.

5. I would like to see significant progress made on the sale of lots in the new development. More properties mean more tax dollars which provides more opportunities to make Rockwell better.

6. After visiting Rockwell for the first time six years ago, I decided this is where I want to raise my family.

Mark Lowe 1. I’ve lived in Rockwell for 15 years and I have been involved in the community for over 35 years.

My wife, Staci, and I have been married for 18 years and we have been together for over 24 years.

We have two daughters, Courtney and Hannah. I am employed by Alliant Energy as a control room operator and have been there for

six years. Before that I worked at Golden Grain Energy as a shift supervisor.

2. I have served on the board of directors for St. Peter Lutheran Church and I have been involved with the Rockwell Volunteer Fire Department for 14 years. I was also a member of the RockwellSwaledale EMT’s for five years.

3. The big ticket issue for me is what every small town faces, that is, how to stay alive and attract new businesses and people to our community and keep those businesses and individuals that we have. Rockwell is a great community to raise a family in.

4. I am a caring person who is attentive to detail and sees projects through to completion. My

experiences have taught me to be a quick thinker and a nonjudgmental individual.

5. I would like to see the bridge replacement project on B-60 by the campgrounds to get underway sometime in the next year to 18 months and I would like to look into the needs of the city’s sewer and water infrastructure and start securing funding to make updates where needed.

6. I am running to become more involved in the community and to help secure Rockwell’s place on the map for generations to come!

7. Good luck to all my fellow candidates and to those that haven’t been to Rockwell, we look forward to seeing you soon.

Tom Worley 1. My wife Tracy and I have been married for almost 34 years and we have lived in Rockwell at our present location for 28 of those years. We have three children, Beau, Lindsay and Kayla and five grandchildren, soon to be six. Currently I am employed by the West Fork Community School District as the transportation director, and I’m in my fourth year in that position.

2. I served on the Rockwell

Fire Department for 20 years. I also was a board member for the Rockwell Cooperative Telephone Association for nine years. Currently, I am on the Planning and Zoning Committee for the City of Rockwell. I was previously employed for 24 years by Land O’ Lakes as a fertilizer plant manager, and within that position I held certification for 40-hour HAZMAT training and responsibilities for human resource processing and training of company employees.

3. The B-60 bridge is a main safety and financial concern, as it impacts many of our local businesses and all of our community’s citizens.

4. I have many years of experience with managing and communicating with people and I feel that I could help the community by making informed and

Tonia Rurup 1. My name is Tonia (Koppen) Rurup. I currently work for Hospice

of North Iowa and teach Zumba classes at West Fork Schools. I have resided in Rockwell off-and-on for 25 years. My grandparents, the late Cleo and Howard Koppen, and my dad, the late Jim Koppen, as well as many other family members, have been long-time residents of Rockwell and the surrounding rural area.

2. With retail management as my background, I was involved and planned many committees involving charity and promotional events for the stores I worked at and the com-

During the 2013 session, we took big strides to expand Iowa’s middle class through job creation and economic growth initiatives, including the largest tax cut in state history. Fixing our state’s property tax system will save Iowans $4.4 billion over 10 years by giving every class of property a permanent tax cut.

A big piece of this effort is the new Business Property Tax Credit, which reduces commercial property taxes,

helping small businesses the most.

The Business Property Tax Credit will reduce taxes without shifting the burden to residential property owners through state reimbursements which will allow to local government to fully fund schools and continue providing services to the community. Commercial property owners can take advantage of the Business Property Tax Credit at www.iowa. gov/tax/locgov/13PTReform.html.

Once I secured employment at Rockwell Telephone, we moved here to fulfill our goal of raising our children in a small town environment. When I learned of the openings on city council, I felt strongly I could make a difference by providing an outsider’s point of view with a passion towards continuing Rockwell’s success.

7. I support each club, association and business in Rockwell equally. I will assist in any way possible to allow each organization the ability provide goods and services for Rockwell through various fundraising events. I will make myself personally available to the leaders of each group to ensure they get the attention and resources they may require.

James Bills 1. I have lived in the Rockwell community all of my life. I graduated from Rockwell-Swaledale High School in 1972. I have been married to my wife, Deb, for 40 years and we have two children.

I have been self-employed as James Bills Construction since 1975 and my son, Andy, joined the business in 2001.

2. I served three terms as a Rockwell city councilman in the past. I am currently on the board of directors for the Rockwell Telephone Company. I am a current member of the Rockwell Planning and Zoning Committee and have served for years. I have been active in various Rockwell organizations for many years.

3. I believe water, sewer and garbage is a top priority for any small community. It is a constant ongoing expense that must be maintained and funds need to be available for growth.

4. I believe that past experience on the council and many years of owning my own business brings the skills necessary to understand the “wants vs. needs” of the community and to understanding the funding required. I feel that I understand the issues of the community and am fair in decision-making.

5. I would like to review or establish a maintenance plan for city buildings, equipment and grounds.

6. With three experienced council members leaving the council, I felt that my experience would be beneficial to the city.

7. Rockwell is a GREAT active community. Our council members have a tough job – a lot to accomplish with limited funds. If elected, I will do my best for the community.

Lee Gossweiler 1. I have been a lifelong resident of Rockwell with the exception of 14 years, when I was a member of the Marine Corp. I am married with two children and currently work at the Globe Gazette as the building maintenance supervisor.

2. I was elected and am still currently a member of the Rockwell American Legion Post #208 board. I have held this position for eight years.

3. N/A 4. I was a member of the military for over 20 years, and during that time learned to handle many different situations.

6. I am running for city council because I would like to help the community betterment.

7. N/A

practical decisions on their behalf. My family lives here and I have a vested interest in making this community the best it can be.

I have a lot of personal pride in Rockwell.

5. Besides the B-60 bridge project, I would like to see the city support the community in the development of the housing projects already started; support the Lions, Legion and the Chamber with their projects; and see that the city maintains and develops it’s utilities and infrastructure to keep us current and prepare us for the future.

6. I want to stay active in the community and feel my life and work experiences would be an asset to the council.

7. I am open-minded and do not have any hidden agendas. I want to help make Rockwell a place people are proud to call home.

Tony Furbush 1. I moved to Rockwell in 2001 from Plymouth with my wife Angie, sons Josh, Tyler and Scot. I have worked at Kraft foods since 2000. Angie is working as CNA for the Rockwell Community Nursing home. While living in Rockwell we have expanded our family to include Jaris, 10, and Isabelle, 6.

2. No, I have never held an elected office.

3. I do not see any immediate issues that need resolution. I feel our current council members have been doing a fine job.

4. I do have my strong political beliefs and I feel that elected officials are to work for the better of the people and the community, not for their own agendas, something a lot of elected officials forget easily.

5. No, none at this time.

6. I feel all members of a community should try to volunteer as much as possible. Volunteers are what make small communities work.

munities I lived in. Examples: Children’s Miracle Network, Susan G Komen Organization and Clean Our Streets in the Des Moines area for the clean environment committee.

3. One of the main issues that is facing our community is definitely keeping small businesses in Rockwell. Focusing on keeping funds in town and helping to get the community more involved.

4. I worked in big box retail stores for years, I have managed one of the biggest in the world. I learned to del-

egate, listen, to be a team player, but most of all to have a voice. If there is an issue or idea I truly believe in, my words will be heard.

5. N/A 6. I am running because I love this town and the people in it. My family is from here, my friends are here, I know many in town with businesses that need our support and most of all to be heard, to listen and to be a part of the community that will make a difference.

7. Moving to Rockwell in high

For the first year, $50 million is available to commercial property owners, with applications for the credit on this year’s property taxes being accepted through January 15, 2014.

When the $125 million tax cut is fully phased in after three years, almost two-thirds of Iowa commercial properties—those valued at $145,000 or less—will be taxed at the same rate as residential properties. Bigger businesses also will get a break on the first $145,000 of their property.

Other much-praised boosts to local business and job creation include: •Enhancing economic development by allowing local governments to establish reinvestment districts.

•Increasing incentives for businesses to locate and expand in Iowa.

Financial incentives were increased

to $16.9 million, and the state’s Economic Development Tax Credit was increased by $50 million. These funds will help with relocation and expansion projects that encourage local investment, job creation, employee training and higher wages.

•Encouraging rehabilitation of historic commercial properties and business districts by expanding eligibility for Iowa’s Historic Tax Credits to assist small and large projects.

•Helping promising startups get off the ground by providing an Innovation Tax Credit for investment in early-stage, innovative companies.

school was a huge change to me, coming from a big city. But since then, I have loved living here! I am committed to making a difference if elected to city council. I have a voice that will be heard, I am a great listener and I give credit where it is due.

I have been involved with being part of this community for most of my life.

Exchange students adjusting well to life at West Fork

By Nick Pedley They may be new to America, but three foreign exchange students have felt right at home this year at West Fork High School. “It’s been really great, and we’re never alone. The teachers or students help us right away if we need anything,� said Catherina Eichel, 15, a student from Germany.

Eichel is joined by fellow exchange students Florencia FrĂ­as, 17, Chile, and Hiina Domae, 16, Japan.

All three girls were on the volleyball team this fall and have enjoyed getting to know their fellow classmates at West Fork. The trio said it’s been easy to adjust to life in small town Iowa, even though only two of them visited America before signing up for the exchange student program. “It’s very small, so everyone knows each other,� said Domae. “You always see somebody you know.�

High school principal Randy Bushbaum said it’s been fun watching the girls build relationships in the classroom and on the volleyball court. He said West Fork usually brings in two foreign exchange students, but this is the first time three came.

He said the most obvious benefit of the exchange student program is added diversity to the West Fork district. He pointed out that the student body is around 98 percent white, which causes a lack in interaction with people from different backgrounds. “Youu can study them in class or bout them in a text book, read about til you actually talk to but until nd ask questions, it’s them and o fully understand hard to nt people and culdifferent tures,�� said Bushbaum. “It’s a chance for [West Fork] students to experience different cultures nd.� firsthand.�

All three agreed ge barriers language heir biggest were their source of frustration oming to West since coming Fork. FrĂ­as has the xperience with most experience h because she English ed a British priattended hool for 12 years vate school

in Chile, but Domae and Eichel have considerably less practice. The pair has just over five years of experience from their respective schools in Japan and Germany. “The language is weird sometimes, and sometimes it’s hard to understand because people talk so fast,�

Domae pointed out.

Eichel agreed, and explained the whole process gets rather taxing at times. “I get tired because I’m always thinking really hard about what I’m saying and making sure it’s all the right things,� she said.

English might be difficult at times, but the girls haven’t let it get in the way of their experience.

They’ve taken trips to Des Moines to meet fellow exchange students and also spend time outside of school with their classmates. They unanimously chose Buffalo Wild Wings as their favorite restaurant and pointed out one distinct difference between America and their home countries. “Everything is so big here!â€? said FrĂ­as. “The small size is our large back in Chile, and you always get so much food at restaurants here.â€?

The girls admitted they missed their family and friends back home even though they’ve enjoyed their visit thus far. FrĂ­as and Domae will finish out the school year at West Fork, but Eichel is scheduled to return to Germany in December so she doesn’t have to repeat a year of school. However, the trio said they’d all love to return to the United States someday. “I always try to convince my parents to move to California, even though I’ve never been there,â€?

Eichel said with a laugh. “But I might look at going to college here if it’s not too expensive.�

Sue O’Brien, Delores Marzen and Evelyn Hogan traveled to Rockwell on Friday, Oct. 25, to share the Domestic Club cookies with the residents and staff of the Rockwell Care Center. The residents and staff gobbled down the cookies and all enjoyed the chance to visit with the residents.

On Sunday, Oct. 27, Rockwell Sacred Heart Catholic Church held its annual turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Local residents traveled to Rockwell to enjoy the sit-down dinner and take in the bake sale.

Drastic times call for drastic measures, but sometimes that change isn’t always a bad thing.

A recent statement penned by more than 150 Iowa environmental researchers, climate experts and agricultural professors advocated a statewide shift away from outdated farming methods. The report urged farmers to adopt aggressive practices aimed at conserving our state’s fertile soil, and the experts listed numerous options that could help thwart Iowa’s large erosion problem that’s been thrust to the forefront recently.

The results of the proposed changes will take time to realize if implemented, but that makes them no less pertinent for our state’s most important industry.

Scientists pointed towards extremely unpredictable weather patterns caused by global warming as the reason for recent farming woes over the past two years. Iowa was gripped by drought in 2012, and this spring proved to be the wettest on record. Such erratic weather led to obvious erosion issues throughout the state in May and June, which then created even more problems in areas affected by the wandering dirt throughout the summer.

All that soil typically finds its way to the intricate drainage tiles that weave their way underneath our fields, eventually flowing into the state’s streams, rivers and lakes.

The unintended problems that arise from this scenario are obvious. Manure and chemicals applied to the soil flood our waterways and cause extremely elevated levels of phosphates, algae and other pollutants.

This murky reality has been an issue for many communities statewide and nearly every waterway is affected.

Our corner of the state hasn’t been immune to the troubles of soil ero-

sion by any means. Beeds Lake has been the focus of pollution problems in recent years, and it seems erosion and runoff has been one of the contributing factors.

DNR officials pointed out at a meeting in August that the lakeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s large water shed has created extremely elevated levels of phosphates that contribute to huge algal blooms and other problems. They pointed towards better soil conservation methods and other tactics as a means to control this ongoing issue, but the solutions are long-term and will take time to realize.

Though this may seem like an unavoidable reality, a unique opportunity greets Iowa farmers as we stare into the face of unpredictable weather patterns, continued soil erosion and increased water pollution. Agriculture experts highlighted numerous conservation methods that have potential to not only stop erosion and reduce pollution, but also improve soil quality and pad the pocketbooks of Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farmers.

Planting cover crops seems to be the most viable of these options.

Agronomists from institutions like Iowa State University have pushed this method recently, and theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve pointed out that Iowa ranks near last in the Midwest when it comes to utilizing the benefits of cover crops.

Planting cereal grains and other grasses after corn and soybeans become established in late summer

creates an added barrier against soil erosion. The cover crop gets rooted underneath the dominating corn and soybeans and remains after harvest season. This holds the soil in place when fields are left bare and unplanted, in turn reducing runoff during times of spring waterfall and thawing.

Farmers get an added bonus of grazing land for livestock and an increase in the soilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organic material once the cover crop is killed and plowed under. This boosts soil quality, produces better crops and reduces the need to apply chemicals like nitrogen each year. With less erosion, nitrate levels are able to stabilize because less is running off. This reduces water pollution and improves water quality by decreasing unwanted contaminants in the water.

Climate change has the potential to alter numerous facets of our everyday lives. As pointed out by the recent report, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s already directly affecting Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s largest industry and most cherished resource â&#x20AC;&#x201C; farming and our soil. Adopting proactive methods to adjust and preserve the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dirt is of the utmost importance from both an economic and environmental standpoint. Iowaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s farmers have always been a proactive bunch when it comes to preserving our land, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vital they continue to implement more ways to improve and conserve the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most valuable asset.

Submitted article On Tuesday, October 22, the West Fork High School Choir presented their annual Fall Vocal Variety Show under the direction of Shelby Wilson.

The concert featured the Concert Choir, Chamber Singers, Women’s Chorale, Men’s Chorus, and the Show Choir. The concert was accompanied by Nancy Retz on piano, Dusty Foster on bass guitar, and JC McCaslin on percussion.

The concert opened with the Men’s Chorus performing “Fergus and Molly,” a Celtic tune featuring soloist Trevor Russell and Celeste Staudt on flute. Next the Women’s Chorale sang “On My Own,” a ballad from the popular musical Les Miserablés, featuring soloists Briana Carroll, Brittany Starr, and Florencia Frias. The Chamber Singers, West Fork’s a cappella group, closed the first half of the program with “El Grillo,” a madrigal from the Renaissance era, and an eight-part arrangement of “Precious Lord.”

The Show Choir kicked off the second half with Elvis Presley’s “A Little Less Conversation” before transitioning into their ballad, Josh Groban’s “To Where You Are,” featuring soloist Jacee Arbegast. They closed their set with “Footloose.”

The Concert Choir closed with concert with their set, beginning with the high-intensity a cappella spiritual “Ain’t Judgin’ No Man.” They followed with “Omnia Sol (Let Your Heart Be Staid)” and “I Want You Back/ABC,” a medley of the two popular Jackson 5 songs, featuring soloists Andrea Reed and Hunter

Uhde. The next piece, “Trĕs Cantos Nativos Dos Indios Kraó,” was inspired by the melodies sung by the Kraó tribe of Brazil and featured various sound effects to mimic percussion, rain storms, and jungle animals. The Concert Choir closed the performance with “Let Everything That Hath Breath,” featuring soloists Katlyn Hill and Celeste Staudt.

In the midst of preparing for their concert, West Fork High School choir students have been selected to various honor festivals. On October 6 and 7, vocal students attended the University of Northern Iowa’s annual vocal festival in Cedar Falls, Iowa. The students performed a variety of challenging pieces for a large audience at their evening concert.

The Historic Park Inn Proudly Presents Orchestra Iowa The Historic Park Inn proudly presents Orchestra Iowa: Beauty and Beethoven as they take the stage at the North Iowa Community Auditorium on the NIACC campus at 3:00 p.m. on Sunday November 10, 2013. Tickets are $25 in advance. All tickets purchased on the day of the show and at the door are $30. This presentation is part of the 2013-2014 Performing Arts and Leadership Series.

Widely recognized as one of Beethoven’s most brilliant and triumphant masterpieces, Symphony No. 7 was written at the height of Napoleon’s power and just as deafness had starkly ended Beethoven’s career as a virtuoso performer. In this powerful work, Beethoven characterizes both the heroically intense joy and his intimate, emotional struggle.

Founded in 1921 and celebrating their 93rd season, the mission of Or-

chestra Iowa is “to foster enjoyment of, and support for fine symphonic music through quality performances, education, and community involvement.” Its musical director Timothy Hankewich and 82 professional musicians perform more than 120 public performances throughout the year, many of which can be heard on Iowa Public Radio and seen on Iowa Public Television.

Orchestra Iowa showcases its artistic excellence each season through an accomplished array of classical, ballet, opera, popular and chamber performances, in addition to extensive community education and involvement. For more information, visit www.orchestraiowa.org.

For tickets to the show, call the NIACC Box Office at 1-888-4664222, extension 4188. Tickets may also be purchased online at www. niacc.edu/boxoffice.

2013 Pro-Ag Meeting Nov. 14 The annual Pro-Ag Outlook meeting is scheduled for Thursday, Nov. 14. The first presenter will be Kelvin Leibold, Area Farm Management Specialist. Kelvin will discuss how using “short dated new-crop options” can be used to manage risk.

Kelvin will also discuss the updates to the Corn Suitability Rating system. Managing price risk and yield risk is critical as profit margins narrow.

Dr. Chad Hart will discuss the market outlook for corn and soybeans. The U.S. has seen huge swings in the estimated production for this year’s crops, and increasing inventory is impacting prices. High prices have encouraged increased production around the globe. You won’t want to miss the information on the supply and demand for corn and soybeans in the coming months along with the impacts on prices.

The third speaker for the afternoon is Shane Ellis presenting on the outlook for beef and pork. Shane will also be discussing how the livestock

industry may respond to current production costs and future demand.

What will lower grain prices and a recovering global economy mean for the future of the meat industry?

The Mason City seminar will be held Thursday, Nov. 14 at the 4-H Learning Center at the North Iowa Fairgrounds, 3700 Fourth St. SW, Mason City. Registration will be from 12:30-1 p.m. and the program will wrap-up by 4 p.m.

The registration fee is $20 per person. Please register by November 11.

$20,000 reward offered for locating Ethan Kazmerzak

By Jeff Forward The search for missing Hampton man Ethan Kazmerzak continues, entering its sixth week, and now a reward is offered for information that helps authorities find him.

A $20,000 reward is being offered for information regarding the whereabouts of Kazmerzak or his safe return.

Kazmerzak has been missing since about 12 a.m. Sept. 15, after he was last seen at a party in rural

Thursday, October 31, 2013

The Pioneer Enterprise

Franklin County somewhere near the intersection of 190th Street and Nettle Avenue.

A wide-ranging search for Kazmerzak was conducted for almost one week by various members of the public and law enforcement officials, yet no clues to his location were uncovered and the mystery remains unsolved.

Kazmerzak has not used his credit cards, bank ATM card, nor his cell phone since the night he went missing. His cell phone was tracked as

last being used at the intersection of 190th Street and Olive Avenue at about 12:30 a.m. on Sept. 15.

Since the week after his disappearance and subsequent week of searching, nothing has been discovered about Kazmerzak or his vehicle – a silver 2006 Volkwagen Jetta with the license plate AUZ 382.

On Monday, family members and Hampton police officials announced they were offering a reward of $20,000 for any information leading to the whereabouts of Ethan or his safe return.

The $20,000 in reward funds has conditions to it which will be posted on the Hampton city Web site – www.hamptonia. us - on Wednesday. The money was pooled together by an anonymous group of donors, said Hampton Police Chief Bob Schaefer.

Police said Kazmerzak was last seen wearing a white or teal shirt with orange or peach shorts. He is described as 5-foot, 5-inches tall and about 180 pounds, with a beard, darkblonde hair, Drew Carey-style glasses and a Grateful Dead tattoo on his left upper arm.

Anyone with information about Kazmerzak or his location is asked to immediately call Hampton police officials at (641) 456-2529. Police also ask anyone who may encounter Kazmerzak to not interact with him because they believe he may flee.

Teamwork:

West Fork falls in regional to Corn Bowl foe N-P

West Fork squad joins Twedt in return trip to state

By Kristi Nixon

NASHUA – Hoping for a different result, West Fork’s volleyball team went up against Corn Bowl opponent Nashua-Plainfield in the opener of the Class 2A Regional 6 volleyball tournament.

Unfortunately for coach Abbee Gappa’s Warhawks, who met the Huskies twice during the regular season and suffered a pair of losses, the result was the same.

Lindsey Peterson, who finished the season with 474 kills, had most of her 35 against N-P in the first set as the Warhawks opened with a 2517 win, but the Huskies went on to reel off three straight sets to advance.

“I thought we came out right away and put it to them, just like we could play,” Gappa said of the first game.

“And we just were unable to finish a whole five games – I think that was our deal all season long. That was troubling for me.

“It wasn’t that Nashua is a better team, I hate to say that, I really don’t think they are; but I think we could play with anybody, especially at our best. But, unfortunately, we have a tendency to beat ourselves and we let that happen again tonight.”

West Fork (15-13, final) took an 11-7 lead in the first set, forcing N-P to call timeout, but things didn’t get better as the Warhawks reeled off seven of the next nine points behind three Peterson kills and three Huskie errors.

But N-P went on to win the next three games, 25-16, 25-18, 25-21.

“We just fell apart, I don’t know what happened,” Peterson said. “Communication, I guess. We thought, ‘oh, we won by a lot, we’re not going to lose this game.’ But, we didn’t fight back and do the things we needed to do.

“We wanted it to be different, but it ended up the same as the last games. I wish we could have played better. We all made mistakes, it wasn’t just any one person. We all had our fair share.”

The Huskies had 10 of their ace serves in the match in the last two games. They converted three straight to end the third game.

“Honestly, I think they got in our heads a little bit and when you get in someone’s head…you know, passing is the hardest part of volleyball,” Gappa said. “We couldn’t get a good pass and nothing goes right, momentum gets stolen from you. They were able to run with it.”

Peterson, who added 32 digs for the Warhawks, said the back row got a little hesitating and timid.

“We didn’t really focus, I guess,” said Peterson.

Courtney Larson, who finished with nine kills, added 18 digs and was perfect on 12 serves.

“We’ve got to be prepared, we had a lot of nice digs tonight, but as far as making…mistakes, it was just matter of cutting those down,” Gappa said.

“I’m always leery, I’m scared to say anything after a first game when we win because I have a feeling that is going to cloud their eyes and it did.

“I don’t even know…they got momentum and got their home court, fans and line judges. You look at everything they had and they were able to stop us at everything we put out there.”

Jacy Guerrero (24) and Ahna Larson combined for 41 assists for the Warhawks.

The match marks the end of Peterson’s career, who recently surpassed the 1,000 marks in kills and digs and had already went past the 1,000mark for set assists.

“I tried my best,” Peterson said.

“I did everything I could. I made a couple of mistakes here and there. I played to win, but…”

Banged up West Fork falls in finale, 28-6

By Ryan Harvey For the final time, the West Fork seniors stepped onto the football in Sheffield in a Class 1A District 3 contest with Hudson.

Tattered and bruised from a difficult and hard-fought season, the Warhawks were unable to pull off a win over the Pirates, falling 28-6.

Spencer Halloran, the team’s offensive spark plug during the past four years, led the way with 96 yards rushing and receiving.

Halloran, who didn’t practice during the week due to injuries, mustered 62 yards on 25 carries and 65 yards receiving.

Sophomore Jacob Kuhlemeier added 21 yards on eight tries while Collin Arndt added 16 yards and a score on 11 attempts.

However, the Warhawks struggled to move the ball against the Pirates.

“We changed things up a bit this week,” coach Rodney Huber said.

“We didn’t know if Spencer would be available because of the injuries.

So we ran a very conservative offense.”

The Warhawks featured a diamond formation rather than the team’s typical spread version.

In the backfield, Halloran slid to the tailback position while Arndt came in at quarterback, sophomore Jacob Kuhlemeier was one of the team’s fullbacks while freshman Cole Hall served as the other.

Huber said he was proud of the effort put forth by the squad.

“I really thought the kids worked their tails off,” he added. “Kuhlemeier ran hard, Spencer played hard with his bum ankle, and we got to see what Arndt could do with the offense.”

“Collin will likely be the quarterback next year,” Huber said. “While he’s not flashy, he gets the job done

with no mistakes.”

The Warhawks scored their only touchdown of the contest when Arndt bootlegged around the left side of the offensive line and scored from four yards out.

Huber said the team’s preparations will begin for next season with a stronger emphasis on the weight room.

“It all starts in the weight room,” he said with regards to next season’s

preparations. “We played a lot of young kids this season, so I think our future is very bright.”

“I expect everything else stays the same, with 7 on 7’s and camps.”

The Warhawks lose six seniors from the roster heading in to next season.

Halloran, linemen Collin Schoning, Cody Grant, Tanner Tuttle, Ethan Meints, and Hunter Uhde all graduate from the squad.

EAGLE GROVE – Last year, Peyton Twedt bore the responsibility of representing West Fork alone at the state cross country meet.

After the Thursday, Oct. 24 state qualifying meet at Eagle Grove, he’ll get a little help from his friends.

Twedt, ranked third in 1A, led the Warhawks to the team title, winning the individual championship in 16 minutes, 45 seconds – eight seconds ahead of the runner-up.

“I just really wanted to get the title and get that first before I worried about time,” Twedt said. “I know Drew got 10th and Jacob got 11th and (Austin) Steil and Colton (Rowe) coming in, it looked pretty good. I think we did pretty well.”

In a rare twist, Twedt’s teammate Drew Engebretson was the second finisher for West Fork, taking 10th ahead of freshman Jacob Hansen (11th). Hansen is ranked 21st individually.

Engebretson has been unranked all season.

“My goal was to come out and get top-10 and go from there,” Engebretson said. “Qualifying as an individual and helping the team as much as possible.

“In practice we always push each other and go after each other and I kind of thought this race I was going to stick with him as long as possible.

If it came down to pushing it to be in the top 10, that is what I was going to do.”

West Fork coach Mark Twedt said that it was something different.

“I think at state we’re going to have the same top three and who knows how it will work out,” coach Twedt said. “I’m really happy with three in the top 11 and hopefully at state we can run and get three up there really high and then you’ll never know what will happen. Right now we look strong. We’ll have a good week of training, rest, get them honed in and sharp. I told them, ‘I hope you’re not peaked for this meet.’ Hopefully, we’re not there yet and we’ll get there.”

Engebretson came in down the stretch to the finish line keeping pace with ninth-place finisher Caleb Wedeking of North Butler. Both crossed the finish line at 17:01.

“Usually he (Caleb Wedeking) and Jacob hang around in meets,” Engebretson said. “I tried to hang right with them and hopefully I’d have enough by the end.”

Austin Steil and Colton Rowe finished 19th and 23rd, respectively, as the Warhawks scored 64 points to out-distance second place team Algona Garrigan (113).

“It’s been a goal, I mean, for a while,” coach Twedt said.

“Especially last year after districts when we got fourth, and that was probably the best we could have done last year looking at everything and knowing we had Jacob coming up and knowing that Peyton and Drew were going to get better.

“And then coming in with Austin Steil made a huge difference. With Colton Rowe better and both Kyle (Schulz) and Markus (Wogen) who ran varsity last year for us but really had to work to beat out some freshmen. It was just a good example of what competition we had in

practice. So we’re excited, yeah.”

Now the Warhawks have their eyes on a bigger goal.

“We’re ranked third and we want to do better than we are ranked,” Peyton Twedt said. “I’m going for the win – but everybody is, though.

We’re going to state – I’m pretty happy about it.

“All year we’ve been talking about it. We finally did it – not just talking about it – we can say we’ve done it. Last year we talked about it, this year we did it, which feels good.”

No West Fork girls qualified individually and the Warhawks placed sixth in the team race with 168 points as Maya Rowe came in at 18th as the top finisher for coach Twedt’s squad.
