Commercial Manure Applicator Training scheduled for Jan. 7 Commercial manure applicators can attend annual training Tuesday, Jan. 7, 2014 to meet commercial manure applicator certification requirements. Iowa State University Extension and Outreach and the Iowa Department of Natural Resources will conduct Commercial Manure Applicator training from 9 a.m. to noon at 76 Iowa locations, including Boone County. Doors open at 8:30 a.m. There is no fee for the workshop, but applicators must register by Dec. 30 with the ISU Extension and Outreach county office where they plan to attend. Commercial manure applicators needing to recertify and those wanting to certify for the first time should attend. All currently certified commercial manure applicator licenses will expire on March 1, 2014. Those wanting to renew must complete training requirements, and submit forms and fees to the DNR prior to March 1 to avoid paying late fees. The law requires all commercial manure applicators to attend three hours of training annually to meet
certification requirements. Businesses that primarily truck or haul manure of any type or from any source are also required to meet certification requirements. Those unable to attend the program on Jan. 7 may schedule alternative times with their ISU Extension and Outreach county office to watch the training DVD. Those who can’t attend training during one of the scheduled reshow dates at their county extension office will be charged a $10 fee to view the training at their convenience. If attending the workshops or watching the three-hour DVD is not possible, commercial applicators may contact their local DNR field office to schedule an appointment to take the certification exam. For more information or to have questions about the commercial manure applicator certification program answered, contact the Boone County ISU Extension and Outreach county office at 515-432-3882 or visit http://www.agronext.iastate. edu/immag/mac.html.
he Bulldog Ball this spring is one of three annual events scheduled by the fledgling Ogden Alumni Association. A Reunion Luncheon Saturday of Fun Days will be aimed at drawing alumni back to town, then during Homecoming the group will host a Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Matt Van Sickle and his wife Tracy are part of the small skeleton group working to get the organization off the ground. “We are compelled to get a small snowball made and start pushing it down the hill,” says Matt. “By helping facilitate reunions and promoting other alumni events, we hope to cultivate alumni interest and a re-connection to the school.” Ogden Alumni Association is planning a banquet (Bulldog Ball) for Saturday, March 29 at Seven Oaks Recreation. They are soliciting donations for their live auction, silent auction and raffle taking place that evening. “We are asking people to be prepared to think outside the box,” says donation committee member Dr. Rick Elbert. “Items of $50 to $100 are good for the silent auction while those over $100 may be considered for live auction.”
Elbert says raffle items can be any size and value. They plan on beginning the evening with 50/50 split cash raffles in hopes the winner will spend all their winnings and more. They are calling on high school students to get involved with making items for the auctions and to assist with the planning. “It’s such a blast” says Tracy. “We would love to have more help, and donations are joyously welcomed. Love for everyone to attend the ball, too.” Funds raised go back to the school for various large and small projects. The Alumni Association offers up these creative suggestions as donations: Prime parking space at school for a student during the day; prime parking place for school functions; prime seats at Bulldog games; hayride and bonfire with hot dog and marshmallow roast. A hosted theme dinner for 8-12
people (dinner with the football, track, cross county, softball, basketball coach or local celebrity dinner at a home with a different meat, ie. elk, buffalo; sledding party; Halloween, Easter, 4th of July, Fun Days, Super Bowl or Final Four dinner with mayor, local priest or minister). Use of a timeshare or condo; golf package with rounds of golf from around Central Iowa; golf band and golf promotional items; Harley Davidson motorcycle ride and lunch; a day of snowmobiling with lunch and refreshments; Iowa/ISU/UNI tickets and tailgating; autographed sports memorabilia - Bulldogs, college. Use of skid loader for a day; truck load of mulch, rock or gravel; use of a contractor for a day; motel/hotel and dinner packages; spa days; power tools; massages; side of beef or pork; tickets for Thomas the Tank Engine; day on the lake with boat and refreshments; dental teeth
Anyone wishing to make a donation can contact Matt at 515-2030678.

he firsT meeTing of the Ogden High School Hospitality & Tourism Management Class Advisory committee meeting was held Thursday, Dec. 12 at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Des Moines. As a pilot program for the State of Iowa at the high school level, we have formed an HTM Advisory Committee with industry experts including: Chef Robert Anderson of DMACC Ankeny Campus Culinary Program, Mary Bussone, Senior VP of Event Management at ITAGroup, Greg Edwards, President/CEO of the Greater Des Moines Convention & Visitors Bureau, Dawn Fiihr, Academic Adviser and Senior Lecturer of Hospitality Management at Iowa State University, Kevin Foley, Assistant Executive Director & General Manager at the Des Moines International Airport, Skip Hammerman, General Manager at Embassy Suites Hotel, Des Moines, Bill Kirkendall, General Manager at Glen Oaks Country Club, Rita McClain, Professor, Event, Hospitality and Tourism Management and Tracy Tucker Drury, General Manager at Hickory Park Restaurant Company. Following introductions, Principal Matt Blackmore presented the committee with information about our high school and the program. Teacher, Doralene Abdel-Halim

Use of a limousine for a night; baskets of memorabilia to auction (from each class or a Bulldog basket); tickets for a Des Moines Buccaneers hockey game or Iowa Cubs game; cheesecakes; liquor or wine baskets and glasses; use of a clown or entertainer for a children’s party; back stage passes for a rock band; naming rights to a shelf at the library; fund a school function (trip to the zoo or Science Center of Iowa); Boone or Newton Speedway tickets; seed corn or beans; jewelry gift certificates; certificate for servicing a farm tractor; sporting goods gift certificates; restaurant gift certificates. Computer services; Rieman Garden Butterfly House tours; furnace/AC checkups; carpet cleaning, original art works; cake or flowers each month for a year; veterinarian package. “No item or idea is too outrageous,” says Elbert, “Unless the committee deems it so.”
provided the classroom vision of creating awareness of the industry and familiarization of the opportunities available. “We hope this committee will help us to form the basis for future programs like ours to be offered state-wide,” says Abdel-Halim. To grow an HTM family tree of opportunity rooted at the high school level that will branch into secondary education and/or employment opportunities for Iowa’s youth.” This industry is unique in that it offers opportunity for those seeking employment straight out of high school preferring on the job work and learning to forge their way up the ladder of success, as well as those who go on to get their degree. HTM is a 24/7 industry with flexible work hours that can compliment a college schedule allowing students to gain both an education and job experience. Though Ogden High School is located in a small rural community, the administration recognizes the need to provide real world learning opportunities for its students. The Hospitality & Tourism Industry is a growing industry that encompasses many business types from accommodations, attractions, food service and transportation. Per a resent article in the Des Moines Register, “Downtown Des
Moines is becoming a magnet for new hotels.” This service industry is and will be in the future, in need of quality applicants with the desire to provide excellence in customer service. The committee discussed the need for people with great interpersonal skills. This applies to all industries and businesses hiring today. Introducing these skills at the high school level will give students an early advantage of how to interact and communicate with an interviewer and customers. Skills seen as extremely lacking in today’s applicants. “We can teach individuals the job specific skills we need but we cannot teach them to be nice to our customers,” Abdel-Halim explained. “Simple social graces such as a proper handshake and eye contact are crucial to connecting with an interviewer and customers.” “This committee is committed to working together to develop a future work force that is customer focused. We will be meeting twice a year to discuss industry trends and employment needs. Our industry professionals have offered opportunities including practice interviews with constructive evaluation, sight visits, job shadowing and possible internships at the high school graduate and college level.”

I laugh when I think of that year we decided real trees would no longer grace our living room at Christmas. I had carefully picked out a tree that met my inspection; nicely green, full branches with no big holes in their placement. Marc just shook his head when I got it home. Since my judgement didn’t match his, he went ahead and put it in the tree stand to prove his point. When properly placed, the tree leaned at a 45 degree angle! I was amazed that it could still stand! I remember well the first year our granddaughter, Emma, was able to help decorate the tree. She wanted to place the candy canes by herself, so we let her. They were all
no higher than three feet from the floor. As a toddler, that’s as high as she could reach. She was too proud of her handiwork for us to make any changes. I think back to traditions from my youth. I think about how we have taken those, added some from Marc’s family and we’ve created our own unique way to celebrate Christ’s birth. There is no doubt that our next generation will bring changes too. In fact, that has already happened. Emma prepared her Christmas wish list this year - a PowerPoint presentation, complete with hyperlinks to the website where that gift could be ordered. It makes me wonder if Santa has a website. He hasn’t friended me on Facebook. Should I be worried?

As much as Christmas is about traditions created over several years, it is also an always evolving celebration impacted by changes in our world and the contributions of each precious person with whom we interact.

The Legend of the Pickle
The Christmas pickle is not really a pickle at all, it is a pickle-shaped ornament. A very old Christmas Eve tradition in Germany was to hide a pickle (ornament) deep in the branches of the family Christmas Tree. The parents hung the pickle last after all the other ornaments were in place. In the morning they knew the most observant child would receive an extra gift from St. Nicholas. The first adult who finds the pickle traditionally gets good luck for the whole year. In retrospect the real essence behind this family tradition is to take time to savor the moment with family and friends and while searching for the pickle enjoy the beauty of the tree and it’s ornaments - teaching children to stop and enjoy the beauty of the season and not focus on the gifts under the tree.
Merry Christmas

Ruth’s Reflections This past week was a time for catching up for me here at the horse sanctuary after my trip back to Iowa. There had been a spell of extreme cold weather and snow here in Taos also while I was away, which typically results in more work. It was wonderful having warm daytime temps again and lots of sunshine for working outdoors. After several days of the extreme cold, the nicer weather resulted in more visitors the past week. It seemed like every day I had one little pleasant surprise after another. I got more Christmas cards than usual this year and a few end of the year donations that were a pleasant surprise, including one from a foundation that I’d never even heard of. And several people brought me out little gifts, also unexpected, that helped to brighten my spirits. As I sat down to write thank you notes and address cards to donors and volunteers, I was reminded again how much support and how many friends I have made through the work that I do here. Skimming over the posts on a for sale Taos facebook page I saw that someone had an eight foot artificial Christmas tree for sale. Good price, but I knew the person and couldn’t resist writing a comment - “is it half price the day after Christmas?” I was halfway interested in getting the tree for my house, but didn’t have a lot of extra $ after my trip. And I still had to purchase gifts for the foster child whose name I’d picked from the secret Santa tree this year. The next day I got a message from the wife of the person who’d listed the tree for sale. She said that her husband told her about the rescue work I do with horses and she wanted to give me the tree for half the asking price. What a deal! So now I’ve got a big, beautiful, almost bare tree in my living room. Since we started doing the annual holiday fund raiser for the horse sanctuary, almost all of my Christmas decorations and lights have been used to decorate the classroom and barn. I just have a few decorations that I keep at the house. But for some reason I got the urge to get this tree and start collecting
ornaments for it, to start making memories of my own once again, separate from the horse sanctuary. I have been happy to use all my holiday trimmings for the sanctuary, and it’s great to see the festively decorated facility every day so I have not missed having my own at the house. But this year it felt right to start doing something special for myself. Even though the tree is mostly bare now, I look forward to collecting ornaments that, as the years go by, will bring back memories of my life now. And I did need a way to display a couple of this year’s gifts – little donkey and horse ornaments. The tree does look bare, but not in a bad way. Instead of looking like it’s lacking, to me it is like a blank canvas, ready to be made beautiful. It is a lovely, solid tree with lots of lights, a good foundation. Maybe that’s what prompted me to want this tree at this time. It’s symbolic. I had put a great deal of time and energy this year into training clinics, riding lessons and classes, and getting approved as a licensed horse rescue, all to build a strong foundation for the coming years for the horse sanctuary’s programs. Now, after building that foundation, doing the work will be like trimming the tree. I am looking forward to teaching kids in the therapeutic riding program, directing the equine-assisted learning and therapy programs, and training and providing rehab for rescued horses with more confidence and expertise. My new tree reminds me of a quote by Agnes M. Pahro: “What is Christmas? It is tenderness for the past, courage for the present, hope for the future. It is a fervent wish that every cup may overflow with blessings rich and eternal, and that every path may lead to peace.” Wishing everyone all the blessings of this special holiday, moments of peace, and heartfelt joy.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR:
What this former city girl likes about Ogden TO THE EDITOR: I moved to Ogden in 2007. Being more of a “city girl” than a “country girl”, I wasn’t really sure what living in small town Iowa would be like. I’ve found that the longer I’m here, I maybe am more of a “country girl” than I realized! There’s many things I love about Ogden, and here’s just a few: 1) The teachers and school staff are amazing! I’ve had children in all three buildings, and my children have been blessed by caring and invested people who have given more to them than I ever could have imagined. The teachers have proved that relationships are far more important than anything else. 2) The walking path. I love to walk or ride my bike on it! I enjoy meeting others along the way and saying a quick hello, watching the seasons change, and seeing wildlife along my journey around town. 3) The Christmas lights. They are beautiful, and I can’t begin to tell you how excited I get to see them! They remind me of the importance of tradition around the holidays. But here’s what made me write this quick note. On December 18, one of my sons went up to Bulldog Blitz. Little did I know that the leaders had planned the most heart-warming event of the season . . . taking them caroling around town. This was absolutely, incredibly amazing to me! What an amazing group of people to plan and execute a great memory for not only the kids participating in Blitz, but for all of us living in the community who were able to be entertained by them. Thank you, people of Ogden, for what you do for others in this community. I, for one, am forever grateful! LESLIE STONEHOCKER Ogden

20:28). If you were ever looking for a statement upon which you “For while we were still helpless, at the right time can build the rest of your life; if you really want something Christ died for the ungodly. For one will hardly die for a that is trustworthy and full of confidence and hope, then righteous man; though perhaps for the good man someone you need to look no further than 1 Timothy 1:15: “This is would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own a faithful saying and worthy of all acceptance, that Christ love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, of whom I am died for us.” (Romans 5:6-8) Oh, what love! But there chief.” In this verse the apostle Paul makes a profound is a second point Paul makes that is of equal importance: claim: Christ came to save sinners. We are assured that “all he claims to be the chief of all sinners. Some believe they have sinned and fall short of the glory of God” (Romans are so bad that Christ will not or cannot save them though 3:23); and as a result, death has spread to all men “because they repent. If Christ can save the chief of all sinners, what all sinned” (Romans 5:12). Being unable to save ourselves in your past is so great that His blood cannot forgive? If we are in need of a savior. This is the divine purpose for He could save the worst of all, could He not save all? “Let which Christ came; “you shall call His name Jesus, for He the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his will save His people from their sins.”, “For the Son of Man thoughts; let him return to the LORD, and He will have has come to save that which was lost.” and “just as the mercy on him; and to our God, for He will abundantly Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to pardon” (Isaiah 55:7). give His life a ransom for many.” (Matthew 1:21; 18:11; See our broadcast on local channel 6 Sundays at 6 pm & Tuesdays, at 7 pm!

The students earned “Junie B. Bucks” for good behavior. Each class read the book Junie B. First Grader Jingle Bells Batman Smells (P.S. So Does May.) by Barbara Park. The story tells of a first grader (Junie B.) who gets to go to a store at school to buy things for her family. She is also to buy a gift for the girl she dislikes the most in her class. There are many lessons learned about being nice and compassionate in the book. Mrs. Lake and Mrs. Hayes both had family members looking for, shopping for, and donating to the “store” that was created for them at Howe School. The children had some great helpers after they made their purchases. Alice Bergstrom, Carlotte Paulsen, Mary Ellen Carlson, Sharon Alban, and Judy Tonsfeldt all came to wrap the purchases the children made. The first graders carried home a bag of goodies to put under the Christmas tree for their family!

Approval was unanimous. DEPARTMENT REPORTS Police Chief Mick Bailey had taken two sets of Cub Scouts on tours of the Police Department. He taught drug and safety classes for the 5th and 6th graders at Ogden Middle School. Bailey continues to work with a property owner on cleanup of a property at NE 3rd Street. Bailey played the part of a police officer in a play production at the Methodist Church. Bailey voiced concern regarding snow removal at properties where owners refuse to remove the snow. He currently addresses the issue as complaints come in. Bailey presented two options - that City could write a new ordinance allowing him to write tickets for non-compliance or the City could take bids for snow removal and move it for property owners. No further discussion took place. Sewer Superintendent Chad Thede met with Fox Engineering to review a rough draft of the City’s wastewater treatment facility plan. A draft should be ready for the January Utility Committee meeting. Thede suggested combining sanitary sewer lining projects to save money. The Iowa Water Environmental Association contacted Thede and requested that he serve on a committee as he will be upgrading his Wastewater Operator Certification. The Council congratulated Thede and encouraged his participation. Street Superintendent Dan Buzzell reported that the diesel fuel tank was tested and cleaned. He continues to make adjustments to applying brine to the streets. Buzzell will continue to research the option of using micro-resurfacing to repair the streets. Fire Chief Dan Wilson reported that the Fire Department will hold their elections in February for a new Fire Chief, and will present their recommendation to the Council for their appointment in the City Council Meeting on February 4th at 7:00 p.m. He would like to assist the department after he retires in December in a limited capacity. City Clerk Jennifer Stumbo reported that in addition to daily tasks she helped to prepare, distribute and receive basketball registrations, worked on projects for the election and organized and prepared for the incoming Mayor. City Administrator Donovan Olson reported that he took a Middle School class on a tour of Ogden City Hall. He has met with the Mayor and the Mayor-elect to discuss current activities. Olson is working with the City Attorney on a plan to address a property issue for a resident on Veteran’s Drive. There are three weekends left in the basketball season and Kelli Larson is helping with program activities. Tiny Tykes basketball begins in January. Olson developed reports for the Council. He met with Fox Engineering to discuss sewer projects. Olson worked on Wellness Center projects including the construction loan; completed the paperwork for the USDA-REDLG grant.

Neil Guess of Bolton & Menk gave an update on the Quiet Zone Project. The four crossing fields have been surveyed and one permit will be issued for all four crossings. There will be opportunities to modify the original plan to cut down on costs. Guess said that the medians would be designed as shown in the conceptual design to assure approval of the plan. He will look into an alternative design at 1st Street that would shorten the medians to allow better access to a nearby property owner. Guess estimated that the bidding process would start in the spring or summer of 2014. Guess will continue to work with the Railroad, the City and Ogden Municipal Utilities on details for the project. The Council agreed with the plan and agreed to focus on minimizing the cost while focusing on safety. Ed Dobelis presented a request from Ogden Legacy for a contribution of $21,000.00 from the Kouhn’s Memorial Fund to help defray the cost of the water and sewer connections to the Wellness Center building.

ROLL CALL VOTE: AYES: Ohlson, Thompson, Reimers, and Anderson. Approval was unanimous. Adam Good, with Investment Centers of America, reported on possible changes to health care in Iowa and the country as a whole. As some of these changes have not yet been put into place, and the ramifications have not yet been seen, Adam suggested that the City make no changes to the health care plan that they currently have with Wellmark
Blue Cross and Blue Shield. That policy will not be affected by the changes going on around the state and country. There was no old business. Under new business, Councilman Reimers reported that the Personnel Committee had completed the City staff reviews and that they had went well with very constructive conversations.

NOBODY COVERS THE BULLDOGS LIKE WE DO!
Wrestlers continue to impress “Outstanding” was how Bulldog Coach Brian Reimers described his team’s performance at the Ogden wrestling tournament Saturday, Dec. 14. Ogden placed third in a contest that featured nine state-ranked wrestlers. Complete results were published last week.

AUSTIN MCCLOUD going for the turn.
After two tough losses the week before, the Ogden Bulldogs are back in the win column. Facing a winless Woodward-Granger team, the Bulldogs comfortably grabbed their fourth victory of the season Tuesday night. At the start of the game, both teams struggled to score points. Ogden was finally able to pull ahead in the second quarter, and went into half with a 21-16 lead. In the third quarter, the Bulldogs took control, taking advantage of Woodward-Granger mistakes. With better rebounding and shooting, they cruised the rest of the way to a 54-25 victory. Senior Caleb Frye led Ogden in scoring with 14 points. Cayce Good tallied 11 points and Grant Heineman had a double-double, with 13 points and 10 rebounds. Ogden 54 - W-G 25 FG 3 pt. FT TP R Frye 6-14 1-2 1-1 14 2 Good 4-12 0-1 3-4 11 5 L.

It was a painful slog of a game. Hoping to get their second conference win, the Ogden girls traveled south on Tuesday to face the Hawks of Woodward-Granger, and once again fell short. Right from the start, the action was all over the place. Turnovers, deflections, and steals easily filled the stat-sheets of both teams, while the hoops sat gathering dust overhead. By halftime, the score stood at a mere 17-17. The tight game continued in the 2nd half. At the end of the 3rd quarter, the Bulldogs held a slim two point lead, but by the middle of the 4th, momentum had begun to shift. Helped by the Bulldogs’ 23 turnovers, the Hawks clawed their way ahead, and held on until the final buzzer, defeating Ogden 5646. Abbey Gustafson led the Bulldogs on the night, scoring 10 points off the bench. Anna Langel was right behind, tallying a total of 8 points. Girls stats were not available as of presstime.
