Ogden Legacy evaluates progress made during this past year Ogden Legacy held its annual meeting Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2013 at the Leonard Good Community Center.

Committee members of Ogden Legacy, an umbrella organization for local community teams and committees (see below), shared what has been accomplished during the past year.

President Craig Christensen provided an overview of Ogden Legacy and its activities, including near-completion of the new medical clinic. Guests were invited to tour the wellness center building at the conclusion of the meeting.

Boone County Hospital Administrator Joe Smith spoke briefly and emphasized the importance of the Ogden Community to Boone County Hospital. He expressed his appreciation for the work everyone had done to make the project a success.

Lori Anderson from the Business Maintenance Team shared progress on new signage for Ogden. She reported they are working on three categories of signage - highway, downtown and community informational signs and is requesting feedback from businesses and the community for this project.

Pat Dobelis from The Promotions and Marketing Committee talked about what they felt was a successful year with Oktoberfest and wellattended events such as Business After Five, Garden Seminar and the

various holiday activities.

Continuing on as co-chairs of Ogden Fun Days are Bret Pierce and Ben Hollingshead. They thanked everyone for the financial and volunteer support and talked about planning next year’s event.

Christensen spoke a little about Ogden Legacy’s website and the need for someone willing to manage/update the site on a regular basis.

About Ogden Legacy Ogden Legacy is a community group working together to make Ogden a great place to live, work and play. The group consists of an advisory board* chaired by Craig Christensen, which oversees three action teams to achieve its vision of revitalizing Ogden. These action teams: Promotions and Marking; Business Development and Business Maintenance hold separate

goals in hopes of accomplishing the same vision.

Promotions and Marketing: Chaired by Pat Dobelis and Donna Ohlson, this team coordinates city events and works towards developing advertising and marketing strategies.

Business Development: A group looking for potential new businesses and how to attract them to Ogden.

The team played a key role in the demolition of some old main street businesses and a gas station in late 2010. Led by Christiansen, the Development team is working to strengthen Ogden’s business community.

Business Maintenance: The goal of this group is to help local businesses continue to stay strong. Led

by Barb Henning and Mick Bailey, the team reaches out to existing Ogden business owners to create a strong working relationship and to find out the businesses’ needs and concerns.

“In Plain Sight” the SAFE Way Column Submitted by Nolan Hunt, Prevention Specialist with Youth and Shelter Services and a Boone County Project SAFE member As a parent, you pride yourself on making sure you raise your children to be the best individuals that they can be. You support them, uplift them, inspire them and protect them. Sometimes, you even have to question them, knowing it is for their best interest. Growing up you remember your parents helping to clean your room and asking questions about items they might not have seen before. But now, you are that parent and due to the changes in today’s society you are not sure what to look for . . . even if it is in plain sight. You wish you had resources or information on what to look for in your child’s room so you can aid in protecting them.

The Boone County Project SAFE Coalition held an event on October 24, 2013 that helped parents, much like yourself, to see the hidden dangers that can be lurking in their child’s room - even dangers that are in plain sight. This event brought over 100 parents, teachers and other members in the community to the Boone Middle School to tour through a mock bedroom.

This bedroom was set up to mimic a teenager’s room. Amongst the posters, books, clothing and bedding, items related to alcohol, drug and tobacco use were placed throughout in plain sight. These items included pop cans, shirts, hats, ties, flasks and pens. While these items seem harmless, these are items that are being used by today’s teenagers to disguise their substance use.

Many parents enjoyed learning all of the items that can be used by teenagers while gaining knowledge of just how important it is to keep an eye on your child’s belongings.

It is important to remember that as a child becomes older they do want more freedom. However, that freedom comes with increased responsibility and honesty. As a parent, remember that your teenager is still your child and having an authoritative parenting style gives your teen that warm yet firm love they need to be successful.

Boone County Project SAFE is hoping to bring the mock room display to each middle and high school in the county during parent-teacher conferences. Be sure to check with your child’s school to see if this opportunity will be available for you during conferences.

The SAFE Way Column is a monthly column contributed by members of Boone County Project SAFE. SAFE is a community coalition working to promote a substance abuse free environment and to assure healthy youth and healthy communities. We welcome all community members to join.

Move it . . .

by OgDEN REPORtER guESt COLumNISt BECKY BLAIR I come from a pretty active family. Even my grandpa, who lived to be 100, tried to walk a mile each day up until only a couple of weeks before he died.

In fact, on his 80th birthday he climbed a tree. When my sister asked him about it, he said, “Yes, I climbed the tree to hear the birds singing and I couldn’t hear them for BECKY BLAIR the noise down below. Grandma was yelling at me to ‘get out of there!’”

I’ve been the “black sheep” of the family in that regard - I’ve lived an all too sedentary life. Then comes retirement, when, after a lifetime of getting up for a scheduled day, there is finally time to do that which I’ve all too often said, “If I only had time, I’d . . .”

So I walk. It’s only a couple of

miles a day, but I hope to increase it over time.

Just about the time I start to think I’ll forget the walk today, our 85 lb. lap dog, Max, is my conscience. After only one day of putting on the shoes and the correct coat, he will not let me forget.

His urgent eyes and wagging tail say, “It’s time Grandma! Let’s move it!”

Don’t get me wrong, it’s not an aerobic event. Max seems to find most hydrants and several trees.

Although, on the occasions when he darts after the squirrel I haven’t yet noticed, my heart rate does quickly elevate!

Mom used to tell a story intended to encourage activity. She’d say, “There was once a man who felt so awful sitting around and looking at the same four walls every day. He got to the point where he contemplated ending it all. He decided he’d run around the block until his heart gave out. So he ran around once

‘thumpthumpthump.’ He ran around twice ‘thumpthumpthump.’ And again? Yes, ‘thumpthumpthump.’

After a very short time, he paused to get a sip of water and realized he was feeling pretty good . . . in fact, better than he had in a very long time.”

So mom’s parable from years gone by comes back to teach me another of life’s lessons. No matter what stage of life, make sure I’m using my time to do something that’s worthwhile.

For the years I was actively employed, my time was gobbled up by the endless list of ‘must do.’ So far in my retirement, I’m finding that’s reversed. What I accomplish in a day has to be intentional - planned . . . that is, until the washing machine gives out and floods the laundry room.

Back to that ‘must do!’ I guess I’ve learned in my retirement that some things change and some things never will.

Vilmar was a big hit at the Holiday Horse Party.

Ruth’s Reflections The Christmas holiday for me does not begin with a Black Friday or Cyber Monday shopping spree. For the past several years the Saturday after Thanksgiving we have hosted a Holiday Horse Party here at the horse sanctuary. Each year the event has grown bigger and more popular. It’s a huge amount of work for me and my volunteers.

We spent the better part of a week decorating the barn and preparing for the party. After last week’s snowstorm, there wasn’t a lot of outdoor work that could be done. It had rained half the night before turning to snow. The neighbor came over with his big tractor and cleared the snow from the parking area and arena, but underneath it all was plenty of mud.

I figured it would dry up by the weekend. It didn’t. There was mud everywhere. Luckily the round pen that we use for the pony rides has good sand footing and dried up well.

The indoor classroom was filled with twinkling Christmas lights and festive decorations. We decorated the big tree that was donated a few years ago with ornaments handcrafted by the special needs kids and adults who come to spend time with the horses and others that were donated by volunteers and friends. The tree topper once again was a big star with photograph cutouts of little Talitha, the miniature donkey that had charmed her way into the hearts of everyone who met her. Even though her time with us was brief, she will always be our shining star.

The stalls in the main barn were decorated with garland, and stockings filled with hay and carrots were hung on each door. The flower pots outside the front entrance were filled with silk poinsettias. One day we had fun grooming some of the horses and taking their pictures after fitting them with holiday hats and accessories.

I spent hours in the kitchen, baking cookies and making fudge for the party. Other volunteers also made baked goods. We went around town and picked up gift certificates and items that local merchants had donated for the party, which is also a fundraiser for the horses and programs. Fundraising can be really hard. It’s not easy sometimes to try to get donations from local businesses that are struggling to survive in a tough economy here.

But most of the people we asked were happy to donate a gift certificate.

Saturday was a near perfect weather day – temps in the 50s and plenty of sunshine. There was still a lot of mud, which discouraged most people from walking around outside to see all the horses, but it didn’t stop the kids that wanted pony rides. There was a steady stream of kids, and for many it was the first time they’d ever been on a horse.

The two new Norwegian Fjords, Victor and Vilmar, patiently went round and round with the little riders, some as young as two years old. There were two 18 year old college boys from China that were in Taos on holiday who also enjoyed their first horse ride.

I didn’t get a chance to take a break from the time we started the pony rides at 10 a.m. till we finished at 3 p.m. By 1:30, the Fjords were getting tired so Dustee filled in for the rest of the afternoon. He is a super patient, wonderful kids’ horse. It’s hard to imagine that a horse’s face could light up when he sees kids coming, but it seems that Dustee’s does. He truly enjoys his work. Dustee is pretty special.

The whole day was enjoyable, but the highlight for me was a very shy four year old boy with a sweet smile. It was his first pony ride. I explained to him how we make the horse go by saying “walk on” and to stop by saying “whoa.” After a few circles around, he was saying “walk on” and “whoa” with me. Before I lifted him off Vilmar, he smiled and waved at his mother, who was taking his picture. She had tears in her eyes when I held his hand and walked him back to her. She said that he has autism and she was amazed at how he responded to the horses, spoke to me and made eye contact with me the whole time. This was definitely not typical for him. As we talked I, too, had tears in my eyes. It made a believer out of her of the value of therapeutic riding. It made me appreciate even more the wonderful gifts that horses bring to our lives. What a great way to start the holidays!

Until next time, Ruth B.

The church of Christ Who are these people?

When a person who leaves the church and rejects God there is no more sacrifice for sin. Can these people be brought back into the fold?

Yes, provided they sincerely desire to come back. The book of Hebrews deals more with this issue of falling away than any other book in the New Testament because so many Jewish Christians were falling away from the church to go back to Judaism. In Hebrews 6:4-6 we read, “For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy Ghost, And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to come, If they shall fall away, to renew them again unto repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put him to an open shame.”

We need to understand what this passage is saying. These people were Christians who were “once enlightened”, they had “tasted of the heavenly gift”, they partook of the Holy Spirit and they experienced the “good word of God.” Yet, they made a conscious choice to refuse these things, forsake Christianity and go back into Judaism. The Hebrew writer says that it is “impossible to renew them again unto repentance.”

Can they come back to be part of the church again? There is no doubt that they can repent and turn back to God. The story of the Prodigal Son in Luke 15:11-32 illustrates this very point. God is always willing to accept those who, in repentance, turn to Him and declare their love for Him. Notice that the Prodigal Son left his father of his own will. He was in a good and blessed situation, but he decided that he knew what was best and left his father’s house. When he himself realized the wickedness of his situation, he decided to make a change. He came home and was restored to his father who forgave him and received him back into his house. The father, the servants and the brother didn’t go looking for him because in his situation there would be nothing that could be said to bring him back. The change of heart had to come from within himself.

What must one do to come back? He needs to acknowledge his lost state. And since this question is addressing Christians, this means making a public confession of fault and recommitting oneself to the cause which was publicly abandoned.

Zion LWML met Dec. 5 Members of Zion Lutheran Women’s Missionary League met Thursday, Dec. 5 in the fellowship hall with special projects ELM Street Preschool and Howe School outerwear.

In Christian Education Eldora Heineman told of advent or “coming of the Lord”. Christmas is about Christ and His birthday. God had planned Jesus’ birth even before the earth was formed.

The shepherds were first to know about Jesus’ coming. People thought the manger was a strange place for Him to be born. It was human and yet divine.

Christmas is never over for Christians as it happens every day of our lives.

Interspersed with the readings were Christmas hymns, accompanied by pianist Annette Powers.

Pastor Brandt led the Bible study from Psalm 145 “Praising God Even When He Seems Silent”.

Many adjectives and nouns are found in this passage as “wonderful works” and “great deeds, good and compassionate”.

He is our present and future hope and when the going gets rough we’re assured we are not alone. He keeps his promises to us in verses 18-20.

Dorothy Kruse led the business meeting with secretary and treasurer reports from Joyce Boehm

and Eileen Westrum.

Dorothy Reimers gave the LWML secretary report on Mission Grants and Goals for 2013-2015, with 18 special areas covered including training K-9 comfort dogs for chaplains, training needy pastors and deaconesses, rebuilding a Haiti Lutheran school, Lutheran schools in Winnebago Tribe, Nebraska, Campus Ministry, and support for children in India. The November mite box total was reported.

In mission services Carol Claussen reported no quilt tying in December but will resume in January. Several bags of donated food items were taken to Perry Lutheran Home.

Ogden Manor devotions will be Wednesday, Dec. 18 at 1:30 p.m.

The annual holiday brunch and bake sale will be held Saturday, Dec. 7 from 8:30 to 11:30 in the fellowship hall.

Hostesses for the coffee hour were Eldora Heineman and Dorothy Kruse with all members bringing goodies for the tables, and for Christmas plates for shut-ins.

Table prayer and the Lord’s Prayer closed the meeting.

Ogden 70 - Wood. Acad. 62 The phrase “a win’s a win” sums up Ogden’s first conference game of the season pretty well. Fresh off of an easy victory against SEW-G the night before, the Bulldogs headed south on Tuesday to face the Woodward Academy Knights.

The Academy always presents some unique challenges, with players that are always quick and agile, and a home crowd whose cheering puts any other student section to shame. This matchup was no exception.

For most of regulation, both teams flew up and down the floor, engaged in full-court fast-paced play. The Knights held a slight lead throughout the game, while Ogden struggled with numerous turnovers, few rebounds, and sluggish outside shooting.

The Bulldogs finally found their stride midway through the fourth quarter. Aided by 5 crucial 3-pointers late in the game, Ogden prevailed, winning 70-62.

Leading the Dogs in scoring were Cayce Good with 18 points, and Jared Adreon with 17 points, including 15 from beyond the arc. Close behind was Grant Heineman, who

Coach Lanny Stumbo admitted that he was a little worried about how his team would start the regular season last Monday. The Bulldogs’ only preseason scrimmage had been canceled because of weather, leaving them a little short on game experience.

Nevertheless, the Ogden girls started strong at home Monday night, defeating the SEW-Grand Eagles 62-40. The Bulldogs struggled with some first-game jitters early on, going in at halftime with just a 3 point lead. However, Ogden came out swinging in the second half, winning the game by a 22 point margin.

Senior Audra Burt led the team in scoring with 19 points. Following her were Liz Good with 12 points, and Mallory Melchert with 11. Anna Langel gave strong boost from the bench, putting up 10 points, and Junior Abbey Gustafson easily owned the boards, finishing the night with 8 rebounds, as well as 5 points.

Bulldog wrestlers win Manson Tournament A dual meet with Greene County and Van Meter Tuesday, Dec. 3 was a perfect way for the Bulldog wrestlers to kick off the season. They finished the night with two wins on their home mats, defeating Greene County 36-24 and Van Meter 5721.

“Tuesday night was a good beginning to our season,” said Reimers.

“We have a ways to go before we arrive at tournament time, but for the first time out and the whole process of making weight, it was a start.

We had outstanding performances

by Nick Ross with two pins for the night as well by Gyena Hansen and Logan Sturtz. In many cases we are still untested but we’ll need to keep pushing ourselves in the practice room to ensure that we’re ready.

“Ogden has a rich tradition in our wrestling program and we want to continue that streak.”

Varsity wrestlers competed in the Manson Tournament Saturday (see below). Up next is a dual meet Thursday, Dec. 12 at home against Woodward-Granger.

MANSON TOURNAMENT “Six finalists and four champions makes for a good day,” said Coach Reimers following last Saturday’s tournament in Manson. “Every kid we took ended up placing. It was a good way to start out our season, but the competition only gets more difficult from here on. We have our schedule set so that with each passing week, our level of competition improves as well.”

The Bulldogs had outstanding performances from Kyler Kiner, Shawn Heaning, Austin McCloud and Austin Lentz. All four captured tournament titles in the Doug Wood Invitational and led the Dogs to a team championship. Kolby Munson and Henry Haglund also had good nights but came up a little short, finishing as runners-up to a pair of quality kids.

“Of course it is always fun to win a tournament title, but the things we look for the most is improvement from one week to the next,” tells the coach. “We will be tested this week with a dual Thursday against conference rival Woodward-Granger and then the always tough Ogden Tournament that will include ten teams this year. It should be a full day of wrestling.”
