By Michael Hohenbrink, Editor rant funding from the state will pay half of the cost of a road project in the city’s business park. The road project affected by the grant aims to open up nearly 16 acres of land for further development. Funding for road work for Huber Drive comes through a RISE (Revitalize Iowa’s Sound Economy) grant and will pay half of the cost of the $270,073 project.
Calmar Policing Fort?
Application for the grant was made by Winneshiek County Development, Inc. on behalf of the city. When completed, Huber Drive will allow access to 15.9 acres of the 22-acre Huber Business Park. The roadway is part of a larger set of improvements planned for the park, with an expected cost of improvements for the park estimated at over $830,000. A start date for project work is next spring with completion in late summer.

CITY STUDIES OPTIONS WITH LAW ENFORCEMENT By Michael Hohenbrink Editor The City of Fort Atkinson is looking at options for police coverage for the community. One possibility for the community might be Calmar’s police department. With a number of Winneshiek County communities looking at their options for law enforcement services, significant changes look to be in store for area communities. The City of Calmar has signed a memorandum of understanding with Winneshiek County for utilizing the sheriff’s office to provide police protection in lieu of the city having a second officer. Current officer Andrew Hageman will likely move to the sheriff’s office, and the city plans to utilize sheriff’s office personnel to man at least some hours per week for both Calmar and Ossian. While deputies can handle a number of issues, dealing with city ordinances is not something the sheriff’s office wants to get into, Sheriff Dan Marx has said. At present, the City of Ossian gets its police coverage from the City of Calmar, which allows for ordinance enforcement in Ossian. One possibility for Fort Atkinson, if the city were to contract with the City of Calmar, would be for the Calmar Police Department to handle ordinance enforcement within the City of Fort Atkinson. Fort Atkinson City Council is looking to have Calmar Police Chief Joe Ward address the Fort Atkinson City Council at its next meeting, set for Nov. 2 at 7 p.m.

By Michael Hohenbrink Editor Off-duty officers can carry weapons onto school grounds at South Winneshiek. The change in policy is a reversal of a previous school refusal to allow off-duty officers to carry weapons on school grounds. While on-duty officers have been able to carry weapons, the school had formerly said “no” to off-duty officers doing so. However, following discussion during the Oct. 10 meeting that drew on the example of a mall shooting in St. Cloud, Minn., the school board gave its consent to officers carrying weapons in their off-duty hours. During the mall shooting, an offduty officer was able to subdue the assailant. Board president Arnold Kriener explicitly cited the mall shooting example in discussing the policy change. The move increases the chance that an officer would be present with a weapon at school functions. Superintendent Kris Einck noted that on-duty law enforcement officers are already welcome on school grounds. On-duty law enforcement officers could already bear weapons. Now, an officer, even if here offduty, could attend a school function such as a game and have his weapon on his person.

Upper Iowa University Offering STEM Scholarships The National Science Foundation has approved a five-year renewal of the Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) Iowa-IllinoisNebraska STEM Partnership for Innovation and Research and Education (IINSPIRE) Grant. A renewal of the LSAMP IINSPIRE alliance grant results in Upper Iowa University (UIU) receiving $90,000 in grant funding over the five-year period, nearly double the amount allocated to UIU six years ago. UIU was also recently awarded a $650,000 S-STEM (Scholarships in STEM) Grant from the National Science Foundation. In addition to funding seven scholarships to be awarded each year to Upper Iowa freshmen in 2017 and 2018, the grant monies will be used by the university to research and strengthen STEM-related educational and programming opportunities not only for UIU but all educational institutions. The amount of each STEM-Pros scholarship will be based on the student’s demonstrated financial need. The annual cap is $10,000 per student. The scholarship is renewable for up to three additional years, if the student continues to meet the eligibility and participation requirements.

Thunder Rode Helps Veterans Volunteers from Thunder Rode’s Tri-state Thunder Vets service gave horse rides Sept. 14 to disabled veterans from all over the United States as part of Alternative Recreation Day during the National Veterans TEE Tournament in Riverside. Thunder Rode, a therapeutic horsemanship program for individuals with special needs, has been providing horse rides for the TEE Tournament for the past six years. The National Veterans TEE (Training, Exposure, Experience) Tournament began 20 years ago as golf for the blind. This tournament provides a variety of adaptive sports, including but not limited to golf, bowling, horse riding, kayaking and fishing. Approximately 300 volunteers work together to assist veterans throughout the week. The purpose of the TEE Tournament is to provide a venue in which veterans with disabilities can develop new skills and share camaraderie with others.

The results were from a satellite voting station Oct. 12 at the college. According to Winneshiek County Democratic Party Chairman Matt Tapscott, the results aren’t grounds for complacency. “We’re anxious,” said Tapscott. “We’re not taking anything for granted regardless. Nobody should get complacent.” For his part, Winneshiek County Republican Chairman Tom Hanson isn’t writing off his party’s chances quite yet. “Considering the situation up at Luther College, it does not worry me at all. You see for a college that is supposed to be teaching respect and toleration as part of the cornerstones of being good citizens of the world, they hardly demand it of their students.” Hanson pointed to repeated vandalism in the area of signage for conservative candidates, a criminal offense. Still, while the satellite voting is showing a Democratic tendency, Hanson noted a Republican presence at the college does in fact exist. “We have a Luther College Republicans group at the college and the most often complaint we get from them when recruiting members is that students are afraid of being identified as Republicans because of the negative consequences it may generate.” This might help to explain why numbers are skewed toward unregistered as students are fearful of being outed as conservatives, Hanson believes. An additional satellite voting station will be held at the college Tuesday, Oct. 25, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. for all voters who live in Decorah Ward 4, Decorah Ward 5, Canoe Township and the part of Decorah Township in County Supervisor District 3.

Fall Fest Draws Big Crowds By Michael Hohenbrink Editor An estimate places attendance at Northeast Iowa Community College’s Fall Fest at approximately 1,100 people. Aided by beautiful skies and warm weather after heavy rains hit the area, the event was a crowd pleaser. “Personally, I thought the event went very well,” said Rhonda Seibert, associate vice president for operations. “We couldn’t have asked for a better night than [Thursday] night.” Among highlights this year were a bungee jump, train rides and a dunk tank. It was the 13th year for the
event, which originally began as a welcome event for students but which has turned into something more. “[I]t’s turned into a student and community event,” said Seibert. In addition to current students, former students also turned out for the event with a special alumni tent set up for them. Seibert credited the success of the event to several groups, noting the role of staff, students and volunteers as well as the support of the community.

City Hears Cop Sharing Proposal By Michael Hohenbrink Editor

Calmar is looking at the possibility of coordinating part of the city's police coverage through the Winneshiek County Sheriff's Of¿ce. The move follows the anticipated departure at some point down the road of Of¿cer Andrew Hageman. During council's Sept. 6 meeting, Calmar Police Chief Joe Ward told council members that Hageman was likely to take a position with the sheriff's of¿ce down the road. Such a move is an inevitability at some point, Ward told council. Hageman joined the force full time under a year ago after completing his studies. Rather than continually replacing officers under him who would then move on to other things down the road, Ward advised council that another option was possible. In consultation with Sheriff Dan Marx, Ward said an idea had been broached that the sheriff's
of¿ce could provide a deputy during some hours. Such a move would save the city from the responsibility of paying employee bene¿ts, noted Council Member Jeanie Kirkeberg. Bene¿ts would be the duty of the sheriff's of¿ce, the employing agency, rather than the city. It would also allow the city to save on gas and equipment purchases. A potential speed bump in the concept is the City of Ossian, which contracts with Calmar for police protection. Hammering out details that would allow that city to maintain coverage might need some working out. At present, the idea is still tentative, though council also gave its approval to go ahead with exploring the possibility. Also during the meeting, council heard a quote for resurfacing work on Lewis Street in Calmar. Work would cost approximately $80,000. Additional thickness of the road surface, should the city desire it, would add to that total.

Alcohol is believed to have been a factor in a crash involving an 18-year-old driver. At approximately 10:46 p.m. Oct. 8, the Fayette County Sheriff’s Office received a report of a single-vehicle rollover accident on 40th Street at the Wapsipinicon bridge. Mason Joseph Meyer, 18, of Strawberry Point, was driving a Pontiac Bonneville west on 40th Street at a very high rate of speed. Meyer lost control of his ve-
hicle, which struck the Wapsipinicon River bridge and went over the bridge and came to rest in the river. Meyer and a juvenile passenger were transported by ambulance to Mercy Hospital in Oelwein where they were treated for non life-threatening injuries. The vehicle Meyer was driving was a total loss. Alcohol likely played a role in the accident, which remains under investigation, and several charges are pending, the sheriff’s office said.

Oneota Valley Community Orchestra Kicks Off Third Season The Oneota Valley Community Orchestra will host its season premiere concert on Saturday, Oct. 29, at 7:30 p.m. Celebrating its third season, the OVCO kicks off with a symphonic journey through the American musical landscape including works by Leonard Bernstein, Aaron Copland and George Gershwin featuring Miko Kominami on piano. This free concert will take place at Decorah High School Auditorium. The season premiere will begin with Leonard Bernstein’s Overture to “Candide.” Originally opening on Broadway Dec. 1, 1956, Bernstein is quoted to have said “there’s more of me in that piece than anything else I’ve done.” The OVCO follows with The Tender Land Suite by Aaron Copland. Copland’s only full-length opera, Tender Land tells the story of a Midwest farm family trying to make ends meet in the midst of the Great Depression. Copland was inspired to write Tender Land after viewing Depression-era photos by Walker Evans. Following a brief intermission, the OVCO concludes with George Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue featuring Miko Kominami on piano. Founded in 2014, the Oneota Valley Community Orchestra is under the direction of Matthew Cody. The OVCO attracts volunteer musicians from throughout the Driftless region.

SHOOTING for any other suspects at this time, the department said. The state’s crime scene team as well as special agents are assisting with the investigation, said Alex Murphy, a spokesman with the Iowa Department of Public Safety. It’s the second fatal shooting case this year for Winneshiek County after a March incident that saw a murder/suicide that began in Fayette County and which spread into southern Winneshiek County. With the March incident, Morgan Elizabeth Kaye, 27, of West Union, was found lying on the ground outside of an apartment on Linden Street in West Union shortly before 9 p.m. March 21 after she suffered an apparent gunshot wound and was pronounced dead. A suspect, Anthony Ray Hebert, 27, of West Union, was later found in his truck just south of Calmar on Highway 150 with a self-inflicted wound. At the time of that incident, Winneshiek County Sheriff Dan Marx noted that Winneshiek County had not seen a fatal shooting in years. The most recent confirmed case before the March incident was back in 1993 in Ridgeway.

Apples Help Make Fall Appealing
NEIGHBOR TO NEIGHBOR BY SHARON BUSCH
The words apple, easy, sweet and delicious and dessert all describe the following recipes. So many kinds of apples are available in the fall, so now is the time to make many apple dishes. Country Apple Dumplings • 2 large Granny Smith apples, peeled and cored • 2 (10 ounce) cans refrigerated crescent roll dough • 1 cup butter • 1½ cups white sugar • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon • 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle Mountain Dew Preheat the oven to 350°. Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Cut each apple into eight wedges and set aside. Separate the crescent roll dough into triangles. Roll each apple wedge in crescent roll dough starting at the smallest end. Pinch to seal and place in the baking dish. Melt butter in a small saucepan and stir in the sugar and cinnamon. Pour over the apple dumplings. Pour Mountain Dew over the dumplings. Bake for 35-45 minutes in the preheated oven or until golden brown. German Apple Cake From Barbara B. • 2 eggs • 1 cup vegetable oil • 2 cups white sugar • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon • ½ teaspoon salt • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract • 2 cups all-purpose flour • 1 teaspoon baking soda • 4 cups apples - peeled, cored and diced Preheat oven to 350°. Grease and flour one 9x13-inch cake pan. In a mixing bowl, beat oil and eggs with an electric mixer until creamy. Add the sugar and vanilla and beat well. Combine the flour, salt, baking soda and ground cinnamon together in a bowl. Slowly add this mixture to the egg mixture and mix until combined. The batter will be very thick. Fold in the apples by hand using a wooden spoon. Spread batter into the prepared pan. Bake at 350° for 45 minutes or until cake tests done. Let cake cool on a wire rack. Once cake is cool serve with a dusting of confectioners’ sugar or with a cream cheese frosting.
The following recipe can also be made with homemade cinnamon rolls and homemade apple filling. Stuffed Cinnamon Rolls • 4 (12.4 ounce) packages refrigerated cinnamon rolls with icing • 1 (21 ounce) can apple pie filling Preheat oven to 400°. Arrange eight cinnamon rolls on a baking sheet; gently press the middle of each roll with the back of a spoon creating an indentation. Spoon the apple pie filling into each indentation and then place a second roll atop each filled cinnamon roll, sealing edges together. Repeat with remaining rolls and filling. Bake in the preheated oven until rolls are browned, 10-12 minutes. Swirl icing over warm rolls. Apple Cobbler Crumble From Scott L. • 1 cup self-rising flour* • 1 cup white sugar • ½ cup butter, softened • ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon • 4 Granny Smith apples, cored and sliced Preheat oven to 350°. Grease a 9x9-inch baking dish. Mix flour, sugar, butter and cinnamon together in a bowl using a pastry blender or fork until crumbly; reserve ¾ cup flour mixture to use as topping. Sprinkle a light layer of flour mix into the prepared baking dish; top with a layer of apples. Continue alternating layers of flour mixture with apples and ending with apples. Sprinkle top apple layer with the reserved ¾ cup flour mixture. Bake in the preheated oven until apples are tender and topping is lightly browned, 30-35 minutes. Allow cobbler to cool for 10 minutes before serving. *Note: Replacement for the 1 cup self-rising flour is 1 cup regular flour, 1½ teaspoons baking powder and ½
teaspoon salt You can also use fresh peaches instead of apples. When I made the recipe, I sprinkled extra cinnamon on top and a little bit of brown sugar. The following recipe is another quick fall-type dessert to satisfy your sweet tooth. Pumpkin Dessert From Bea Gassman • 1 (18.25 ounce) package yellow cake mix • 1/3 cup butter, melted • 1 egg • 1 (29 ounce) can pumpkin • ½ cup brown sugar • 2/3 cup milk • 3 eggs • 2 tablespoons pumpkin pie spice • ¼ cup butter, chilled • ½ cup white sugar • ¾ cup chopped walnuts Preheat oven to 350° and lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. Set aside one cup of cake mix. Combine remaining cake mix with melted butter and one egg and mix until well blended; spread mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. In a large bowl combine pumpkin, brown sugar, milk, three eggs and pumpkin pie spice; mix well and pour this mixture over cake mix mixture in baking dish. In a small bowl with a pastry blender, or in a food processor, combine chilled butter and white sugar with reserved cake mix until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Sprinkle over pumpkin mixture. Sprinkle chopped walnuts over all. Bake 4550 minutes, until top is golden. Till next time, words that might make you smile. “Life’s short. Eat dessert first, work less and vacation MORE!” ― Lea Mishell
Human Trafficking Presentation Planned Sister Pat Conlan and Sister Maria Barth from the Tri-State Coalition to End Human Trafficking will speak Sunday, Oct. 30, from noon to 2:15 p.m. at Our Lady of Mount Carmel Catholic Church in Lawler. Human trafficking is a $32 billion per year industry that exploits 30 million innocent victims into forced labor, sexual exploitation or both. Speakers will share practical information on how your family can avoid becoming a victim, signs that indicate someone may be
a victim and actions that you can take if you feel trafficking may be occurring. They will also share ways you can help to restore dignity and healing to victims of trafficking. Medical professionals, firefighters, EMTs, educators and others whose occupations offer them unique encounters with individuals may find this session particularly informative. For more information, call Martin Ahrndt , director of faith formation, at 563-238-5004.

UIU Makes Presidentʼs Honor Roll Upper Iowa University (UIU) has once again been named to the President’s Higher Education Community Service Honor Roll. UIU was named to the General Community Service category, which recognizes institutions that make a commitment to improving the quality of life of offcampus community residents, particularly low-income individuals. “This is the fifth time over the past 10 years that Upper Iowa has been named to the President’s Honor Roll,” said UIU Director of Student Activities Daryl Grove. “These honors are confirmation of our culture of dedicated service and goodwill among our students, faculty and staff from which our local communities benefit each and every year.” Organizations or service projects that UIU students, faculty and staff have participated in over recent years include Fayette Appreciation Day,
Special Olympics, Alternative Spring Breaks, Dance Marathon, Cancer Research, Make-A-Wish Foundation, Academic Service Learning in the Classroom and various volunteer projects at Fayette Campus and UIU centers. “A large number of UIU volunteers deserve recognition for this honor, but we are especially proud of our students, who continually exhibit goodness and compassion for the entire community,” said UIU Peacocks for Progress President Christina Kirwan, while expressing her appreciation toward Grove and former Peacocks for Progress President Emily Marvin for writing the Honor Roll application. The Honor Roll’s Presidential Award is the highest federal recognition an institution can receive for its commitment to community, service learning and civic engagement.

Guest Opinion
Secondary Roads Facility Vote Nears By Jeanine Tellin Fayette County Supervisor, Chair Fayette County voters, by now you should have received a letter explaining the what, why, when, where and who of the proposed new county maintenance shop. I know that not all the questions have been answered in the letter. The letter is to inform you of the upcoming vote and some key issues concerning the vote. The ballot language specifically states what the money can be used for. We can’t spend it on anything that is not listed in the ballot language and we can only spend for the actual cost of the project. So for example, we are asking for authority to spend up to $2.9 million and let’s say the project comes in at $1.5 million, we can’t spend the “extra” money on something else. That would be illegal! The Supervisors have been asked why we don’t use a sales tax to generate the needed revenue for the new shop, as a sales tax would be a much fairer way of everyone paying for the new shop. The Supervisors don’t have the authority to impose a sales tax to pay for the new shop. We currently are using the one cent Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) for property tax reduction in the County. As you look over your ballot you will notice it is two sided. The vote concerning the proposed new county
maintenance shop is on the back of the ballot, bottom right hand side. So if you vote a straight ballot you will need to turn the ballot over and finish your voting. *If the vote passes the money will be generated by a debt service levy (general obligation bond) and be held in a Debt Service Fund. From that fund the payments for the general obligation debt are paid. The Iowa Constitution limits a county’s debt to 5 percent of its assessed valuation. The Debt Service Fund is a tax that is levied against all the normally taxable property in the county plus the value of the increments in the county’s Tax Increment Finance (TIF) districts, which otherwise are not eligible for general taxation. Please check out the Fayette County website to see one reason the current shop needs to be replaced. The photos show why it is unsafe for the workers to continue to work in the current shop. Go to the Fayette County website at: www.fayettecountyiowa.org and click on the Engineer/Road Department then click on WU Main Shop Flood Pic – September 22, 2016. * This information was taken from an article written by Grant Veeder, Black Hawk County Auditor and published in the August 2016 edition of the Iowa County magazine.
Letter to the Editor Strong And Thoughtful Leadership To the editor: The future of Iowa depends upon strong and thoughtful leadership at all levels of government. That is why we will be voting for Jan Heikes for Iowa State Senate in November. Jan has a history of working at both local and state levels, especially for those who find that their voices are not often heard. She believes in building community for all and in building communities that provide education, services and support for each individual. Her background in policy and planning is a good fit for Iowa government. Jan is an attentive listener who takes what she learns and applies it to appropriate action. We urge you to find out more about Jan at www.janheikes. com and consider joining us in a vote for Jan and a positive Iowa future. Linda and Bob Watson Decorah
Emergency Responders, Firemen Are Treasures To the editor: Turkey Valley Community Schools is a preschool through twelfth grade school located in the center of [its] many communities - Fort Atkinson, St. Lucas, Waucoma, Lawler, Protivin, Little Turkey, and Jackson Junction. We are a thriving school that has much to offer. Part of our success comes from the tremendous support that we receive from our communities. We would like to applaud the many agencies that have recently provided support to our students and staff in various capacities. These agencies include the Fort Atkinson First Responders, Waucoma First Responders, and the Waucoma Fire Department as well as Winneshiek Medical Center. These responders and volunteers are essential to the safety and well-being of our school community and of our patrons when attending events. Additionally and also of significant importance, we appreciate the businesses that allow their employees to act as responders and firemen. Without your support, a volunteer system would not be possible. We are thankful for the sacrifice of all these persons and businesses to help make Turkey Valley and our community a safer place. With much appreciation and gratitude, Turkey Valley Community School Crisis Team [Submitted by Amanda Anderson]

In Media Arma There’s an old saying that goes “In the midst of arms, the laws are silent.” The idea is that quibbling over legalism while someone is swinging a sword is like grasping at straws, probably not the best time to be worrying about it. That’s a fair point, though making sure the law covers as much as possible beforehand can serve to clear up confusion before it starts. Certainly, that seems like a prudent consideration now as the South Winneshiek Community School District implements a new policy on concealed weapons on school grounds. Getting the details down right away can mean far fewer headaches down the road. As approved by the school board, the new policy gives permission for any off-duty officer to carry a concealed weapon on school grounds at any time. Up until now, on-duty officers had already been allowed to do so. The change broadens that permission to include any officer, even if he were not on the clock. Just a few years ago, the school board had said “no” outright to the same idea. Today, the board has reversed itself. The policy is an explicit response to an incident at a St. Cloud mall involving an armed assailant. That shooter was stopped cold by an offduty officer bearing a concealed weapon. In theory, the move could allow
an officer to respond quickly to a situation. It broadens the pool to, potentially at least, allow for deputies and police, even in their private hours, respond to incidents at all times more quickly. With the mall shooting, this did in fact work out to be the case, saving lives. That saving of lives is not inconsequential. The possibility, in that case the reality, of an off-duty officer being able to respond quickly meant lives that would certainly have been lost were saved. It’s a powerful argument. Could such a situation happen here? Sadly, the possibility looks more real today than it might have even a few years ago. We acknowledge the idea to have some potential merit. That said, some clarification now could help to prevent having to go back to the drawing board if problems arise down the road. Allowing deputies of the Winneshiek County Sheriff’s Office to bear arms at a football game, the homecoming parade or at graduation makes sense as deputies can live in the same communities they serve. It’s entirely possible for a deputy to live in Festina, exempla gratia, and to have children in school activities in the middle school in Ossian or the high school in Calmar. Legitimately, a deputy could in fact find his way into school settings wherein such a situation, as happened in St. Cloud, happens here.

What is less apparent is whether the broad nature, currently in place with the move, best serves the community. In considering the move, the possibility was discussed as to whether parents and other fans of schools traveling to Calmar from another community might be armed. Chancing it with an individual who travels across the state, or even across state lines, bearing a firearm seems to open the door to trouble. Technically, this would be allowed under the new policy. The South Winneshiek district would have little control over such cases, while it would have substantial pull with the sheriff’s office, a local body with which it can communicate concerns and receive timely responses. A modification of the new policy, one that targets more narrowly and spells out for whom specifically the policy applies, would seem a more reasonable approach here. Likewise, asking for notification, even a simple word to administration, is not unduly onerous. This not only gives a heads up, it also could help with insurance issues, a topic not brought forth for public discussion. Should the school be put into a situation of liability, that is a matter that needs hammered out. This isn’t an unworkable idea, but simple clarifications ought to be worked out before the school puts itself in a situation that could incur financial or other difficulties.

SUPERHERO RUNDOWN I was planning on doing a column of the noteworthy new shows on the air for this fall’s television season, but having already looked at MacGyver, Lethal Weapon and The Exorcist, there honestly aren’t enough new arrivals left to make a column out of. So instead, let’s check in on the state of comic book adaptations this week. It’s hard to believe that less than a decade ago superheroes on television were a rarity. For the longest time, the closest we had was a Superman series that refused to put Superman in a costume. Now, look at the TV landscape. • Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. After years of holding back, “Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.” has finally started doing what people expected of them from the start. They’ve got Marvel superheroes on the show. Not long ago Marvel Studios regained the rights to Ghost Rider from Sony. After two failed movies with Nicholas Cage starring as Johnny Blaze, the most famous incarnation of the character, people have been waiting to see what Marvel Studios would do with the property. (My money was on a Netflix original.) The TV version of Ghost Rider is Robbie Reyes, a very recent addition to the lore. (And I only just now realized those names rhyme.) With only a single 12-issue run to his name, there isn’t a lot to the character, making it easier to flesh out on-screen. There’s already talk of Ghost Rider getting his own spin-off series, but this show has already failed to launch a spin-off once so I wouldn’t hold my breath. • Arrow Time has not been kind to Arrow. It may be the progenitor of the CW’s DC television universe, but the show has been in a perpetual identity crisis since its second season. Once upon a time, Arrow was about a lone vigilante facing off against corrupt businessmen and realistically re-imagined Batman villains. Lately though, nearly everybody on the cast is either a vigilante or working with one. This season there appears to be a shake-up with the cast, introducing
AGE OF THE GEEK
Travis Fischer a new wave of vigilantes to the mix. I’m not sure that’s what the show needs, but I’ll keep watching anyway. • The Flash The Flash may be a spin-off, but it’s safe to say that it’s surpassed “Arrow” in quality. Who would have thought that The Flash would become TV’s most popular superhero? In the third season of The Flash, it seems that Barry Allen is still messing around with alternate realities. No telling yet who the big-bad of the season is going ng to be, though one can hope won’t pe we won’ nt have three consecutive seasons of Barry going up against nst another speedster and d struggling to get even faster. aster. • D.C.’s Legends ends of Tomorrow Being superuperhero shows, The Flash and Arrow row have built up quite the roster ter of secondary ry characters. Rather than shelve them in limbo, Thee CW has given ven some of the more popular characters rs a show of their own. (Including Including Iowa’s own Brandon randon Routh, who once played ayed Superman and is currently tly The Atom.) It’d be easy asy to write off Legends of Tomorrow as a B-Team show, w, but their time travel high jinks inks were pretty entertaining forr their first season and I don’t see them hem slowing down for the second.
• Supergirl Supergirl had a solid first season on CBS, but it apparently wasn’t getting the ratings it needed. Fortunately, Greg Berlanti, who is the show runner for three previously mentioned shows, found a home for Supergirl on The CW. Moving production from Los Angeles to Vancouver might have cut costs, but it also comes with a price. Specifically, the downgrading of Calista Flockhart from the main cast to a recurring character. Still, there is an upside. After a season of off-screen teases, Superman has finally made a full appearance. The new location will also make crossovers with other CW shows easier, so expect a fair number of team-ups in the future. • Gotham Over on Fox, Gotham remains the most interesting show with the least interesting main character on TV. The drama around JJim Gordon’s journey to becoming becomin the police know and love commissioner we kn compelling; forisn’t particularly com tunately the wacky antics of the Penguin, Riddler and increasing number the incre of super-criminals sup more than make mor up u for it. Not a bad line-up, all things considered. The inner kid in me m will never stop being amazed that am there’s a superth hero he show for every eve night of the w week.

Mr. Jurrens shared with the board that some of the kitchen items were sold through the bid process. The stove and kettle were not purchased. Those items will be salvaged. Superintendent Jurrens presented information in regards to the certified enrollment and a revenue and expense summary. If we can maintain the gap between the expenses and revenues, our unspent balance will be doing well. Mr. Jurrens and the board shared their concerns about the number of students open enrolling out of Turkey Valley. Some of these open enroll out students attended neighboring schools last year, they have moved into the Turkey Valley district but wish to remain in the school that they have been attending. Turkey Valley has almost always had more students enroll in than out but that is not the case this year. Mr. Jurrens would like to do a needs assessment survey. He would like to hire a group or company that will do a study to find out why this has happened. Mr. Jurrens spoke with the board about doing another town hall meeting. He will try to set a date sometime in January. There are so many positive things happening at Turkey Valley, he wants to share them with the community. The Governance workshop will be in Charles City on October 18. Mr. Jurrens encouraged the board to attend if their schedule allowed. He thanked everyone who helped manage the cross country meet held at Jackson Heights. Your flexibility was much appreciated. Mr. Jurrens asked the board to update him on the redistricting information that has been on previous agendas. This item will again be put on the agenda beginning in January 2017. The next regular school board meeting will be Monday, November 14, 2016 at 7 p.m. Moved by Brenda Mueterthies and seconded by Leon Shatek to adjourn at 7:52 p.m. Carried unanimously.

Mayor Paul Herold called the meeting to order at 7 p.m. Stephanie Fromm, Winneshiek County Development, Inc. gave an update on events and services they offer, and advised of the new website at winndevelop.org. They have a Fort page which links to our website, and if we want other info on there, just need to let her know. Jay Schwamman would like to build a garage on his property, and previously requested to vacate the alley behind his house. The Council decided it makes sense to vacate the entire alley, so letters were sent to all five property owners in regards to the property abutting each home owner. Mayor Paul Herold advised any expenses would be passed on to the homeowners equally, and was requested to call the City Attorney to get a quote. Motion was made by Schneiter, seconded by Schroeder, to proceed with vacating the alley. P. Schmitt abstained as he is one of the property owners, Rest All Aye. Carried. Council was asked where things are at with Flood help.

Greg Barta asked permission to install a sump pump in the Community Center to help with the water issues. Barta and Aaron Schroeder can do most of the work themselves. Motion was made by K. Schmitt, seconded by Schneiter, to approve as requested. All Aye. Carried. Barta also advised he is getting real close on the Ammonia testing, and meeting residuals, so should be ok. Motion by K. Schmitt, seconded by Schneiter, to approve the following consent items: September 7, 2016 Council Minutes, Clerk’s Reports, and monthly bills. All Aye. Carried. Update on Sewer Project – Barta advised he will be working with the Engineer to test the Lagoons around the 17th of October. Herold also will be talking to Engineer to see how flood recovery may fit in with this Project. No Building permits were submitted to review. Discussed Park Cleanup due to the flood, and need to wait until FEMA is completely done with their assessment. Red Cross asked that we update the Red Cross Shelter and Facility Survey, and name a 3rd contact who would have a key to the Community Center. Dave Schneiter volunteered to be added. Herold will fill out the assessment and Johansen will mail in. United Way asked that we fly four flags again, and Barta agreed to hang them. Johansen will email them to advise. Winneshiek County Community Foundation has requested an update on which our Distribution Committee Representative is. Motion was made by K. Schmitt, seconded by P. Schmitt, to continue with Al Becker as our Liaison. All Aye. Carried. Future Agenda – Council would like to discuss Police coverage with Joe Ward, Calmar Police Chief.

South Winn Downs Lake Mills By Michael Hohenbrink Editor The Warriors came from behind to pull off a win Friday. Down 6-7 early in the game, South Winneshiek managed to turn the game around by the half to pull ahead by two, making the score 12-10 at the half. After that, the game belonged to the Warriors. “We were able to make some adjustments at the half to limit Lake Mills to 29 yards of offense in the second half,” said South Winneshiek Coach Jason Ohrt. “The first half we tried Oct. 14 - SW 24, Lake Mills 10 SW 6 6 6 6 LM 7 3 0 0 Rushing (Att-Yds-TDs) – Hanson 6-(3)-0, M.

a few things to slow down their play maker at tight end, but doing so got us out of gap on some run plays which Lake Mills took advantage of.” Ohrt commented on things to improve. “We have to clean up the turnovers and get more consistent reads from the running game on offense,” said Ohrt. “It was nice to see our team take back control over the game in the second half.” South Winneshiek will finish out the regular season Friday against Belmond-Klemme.

By Michael Hohenbrink Editor And then there was one. A single opponent still stands between Turkey Valley and a perfect season after TV destroyed Clarksville Friday night. A 72-7 victory saw Turkey Valley dominate the night. “We executed well again on offense,” said Turkey Valley Coach Mark Scott. “Clarksville made some critical errors early in the game…allowing us to score quickly.” Scott cited a bad snap as an example as the error gave Turkey Valley the ball on the one-yard line. Other critical Clarksville errors included three interceptions, a fumble and another bad snap. Turkey Valley’s John Gossling managed two interception returns for Turkey Valley for TDs. “We were able to let some younger players get some varsity playing experience,” said Scott. “The game sealed our playoff bid. We will be [in] the number one position for district two.” Turkey Valley will play Janesville Friday to finish the regular season.
