Harvest time Yes, it’s that time of year when across the countryside, combines can be seen spewing chaff and dust into the air and tractors and wagons are traversing roads, hauling corn and soybeans from

field to the bin site. Fall harvest is a busy, dangerous time for both farmer and driver. Please use caution when driving and be on the watch for slow-moving farm vehicles.

Congratulations to the OHS Marching Band on another successful marching season! The band placed 5th at the Urbandale Marching Invitational and received a Division 1 Superior rating at the IHSMA State Marching Band Contest in Ft. Dodge. The 72-member band is under the direction of Jeremy Britton.

Questers invited Ogden third grade SAVE THE MARQUEE to Hickory Grove School

by Mary J. Ott Wm. B. Ogden Questers Chapter #1247 held their annual “SCHOOL DAY” for Ogden’s 3rd graders Tuesday, October 4, 2016 at the Hickory Grove one-room school east of Ogden. The teachers, Mrs. Nichols, Mrs. Halbur and Mr. Baltimore got off the school bus with 55 eager students at 9:00 a.m. The school cooks had been saving gallon cans that contained food from the hot lunch program so each student brought a recycled can for their cold lunch, typical what students had when they attended a one-room school years ago. The school bell rang and everyone gathered around the flag pole to recite the Pledge of Allegiance.

Once inside, the students listened to several Questers tell about the teacher’s duties that she did each school day such as bringing in the filled coal bucket to start the fire in the pot-bellied stove, getting a fresh pail of water from the pump outside and using a common dipper for everyone to use, clean the slate boards and erasers, sweep the floor (with the corn-broom donated by Shannon Bardole), dusting school desks and the list goes on.

Then students were divided into two groups: group one stayed inside for the morning session and class room subjects, the second group went outside for recess games and a tour of the train depot (which came from Berkley, Iowa), and viewing a most interesting display and collection of Marva J. Stark’s bird nests. Everyone settled into eating their goodies from a lunch pail they brought from home.

At this time, we were joined by more students and chaperones who were home-schooled. They too, enjoyed learning about the history and activities of the one-room school house and the bird nests collection.

Everyone then walked across the lawn to the Battin Chapel where the group learned about the history of the church and flag etiquette.

Group singing was enjoyed and it was time to start Session two. We were thankful to have modern bathroom facilities conveniently located nearby on the grounds. Groups 1 and 2 switched places to repeat the activities and the school bus came to take teachers and students back into Howe Elementary School.

The Board of Directors of the McGraw Senior Center announced that they are beginning a capital fundraising campaign to save the former Ogden Theatre marquee.

Time and elements have taken a toll on the local mainstreet landmark.

It’s hoped that through fundraising, this piece of history can be saved and secured for years to come.

“We all have fond memories of

Bill and Mabel McGraw,” says Barb Henning, owner of Everlastings Flowers & Gifts. “You can smell the aroma of freshly popped corn just talking about them. Help keep their memory alive by donating. Saving the marquee would be icing on the renovations all ready made to the building.”

Donations may be sent to McGraw Senior Center, Box 575, Ogden, IA 50212, Att: Marquee.

Drug DropOff scheduled for Oct. 22

A friendly reminder from the Ogden Fire Department

On Saturday, Oct. 22, from 10 a.m. to 12 noon, the Ogden Police Department and the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) will give the public its 12th opportunity in six years to prevent pill abuse and theft by ridding their homes of potentially dangerous expired, unused, and unwanted prescription drugs.

Bring your pills for disposal to Ogden City Hall at 513 W Walnut Street. (The DEA cannot accept liquids or needles or sharps, only pills or patches. The service is free and anonymous, no questions asked.

Last April, Americans turned in 447 tons (over 893,000 pounds) of prescription drugs at almost 5,400 sites operated by the DEA and more than 4,200 of its state and local law enforcement partners. Overall, in its 11 previous Take Back events, DEA and its partners have taken in over 6.4 million pounds—about 3,200 tons - of pills.

This initiative addresses a vital public safety and public health issue. Medicines that languish in home cabinets are highly susceptible to diversion, misuse, and abuse.

Rates of prescription drug abuse in the U.S. are alarmingly high, as are the number of accidental poisonings and overdoses due to these drugs.

Studies show that a majority of abused prescription drugs are obtained from family and friends, including from the home medicine cabinet. In addition, Americans are now advised that their usual methods for disposing of unused medicines - flushing them down the toilet or throwing them in the trash - both pose potential safety and health hazards.

While burning leaves is a convenient option for some, it can be a nuisance and health hazard to others. For those who choose NOT to burn, the Boone County Landfill is a great alternative. They accept yard refuse for free disposal (until November 15, 2016). All loads brought to the landfill must be covered with a tarp. The City of Ogden Code requires limbs to be taken out to the City Shed.

Burning of garbage violates Iowa State law.

Those that choose to burn should make sure the pile contains ONLY leaves, and the burn pile must be attended to at all times by a competent adult until it is extinguished. Leaves cannot be burned on city property, including alleys, streets and parking.

In summary: • Leaves – burn on personal property avoiding alleys, streets and parking • Yard refuse – Boone County Landfill • Limbs – City Shed or Boone County Landfill • Garbage – Garbage Service 6 Pay it forward by helping your neighbors that may need assistance with hauling yard refuse to the landfill or limbs to the city shed.

ANY FURTHER QUESTIONS CAN BE DIRECTED TO THE BOONE COUNTY COMMUNICATION CENTER AT 515-433-0527.

“There’s a story there!”

We’ve tried to find a few stories that have captured a smidgen of what Ogden has been over our 150 year history. It’s been a joy and a challenge, and we are very happy to have brought these stories to you through a collaborative effort of many.

Thank you to everyone who has contacted us about ordering an Ogden Sesquicentennial Book. As of Friday, Oct. 14, we have received 75 orders. We need a commitment of 200 books

by Oct. 31 in order to proceed with printing. If we can get copy sent to the printer the first of November, they will guarantee delivery in time for Christmas.

The book will be a compilation of the stories we have run throughout the year celebrating Ogden’s 150 year history. Estimated cost of the bound book will be $28.

Please contact The Ogden Reporter office at 515-275-2101 or email reporter@netins.net and get your name on the list.

Former Hobo King dies in Ogden “The Hard Rock Kid was laid to rest Saturday,” wrote Ogden Reporter Gary Alban. “It was a simple, dignified service marred occasionally by the clicks and whirs of cameras and the flashing of strobes, but surely the King would have said, “God bless you, brother!”

His Ogden friends were the first to mourn the Kid’s death.

John (Hardrock Kid) Mislen stopped in Ogden for his yearly visit enroute to the annual Hobo Day in Britt, Iowa where hoboes from across the country gather each year to elect a new king. He talked with the townsfolk about his life as a hobo. A local photographer even stopped him on the street and asked permission to photograph him, to which Mislen graciously obliged.

“His old scraggly face, his white hair and full beard made him a storybook character, a photographer’s delight,” reported Alban.

That night The Kid died sleeping under a tree in the city park. He was a familiar figure in the area, so much that in 1966 he was made an honorary member of the Ogden Brothers of the Brush during early Centennial activities. Funeral director Dave Carson said the Kid had showed up in Ogden every year for the past 20 years. The community, as a final tribute, wanted to take care of the funeral arrangements.

The funeral drew national attention.

“Who would have ever imagined the far reaching impact that would result after The Ogden Reporter released the story that the body of a former King of the Hoboes had been found under a tree in the city park,” said Alban in his weekly column.

He told of The ABC radio network calling, a Los Angeles radio station interviewing funeral director Dave Carson and a New York radio station interviewing Steam Train Maury in Ogden. An AP newswire story was picked up by papers all across the country.

Surely the King would have said, “God bless you, brother?”

by Gary Alban Published in the Aug. 3, 1977 issue of The Ogden Reporter

The Hardrock Kid was laid to rest Saturday.

It was a simple, dignified service marred occasionally by the clicks and whirs of cameras and the flashing of strobes, but surely the King would have said, “God bless you, brother!”

John (Hardrock Kid) Mislen, 72, five times elected National King of the Hoboes, was eulogized by his friend and reigning king, Steam Train Maury Graham of Toledo, Ohio, as a man who had thousands of friends.

“He didn’t need a home,” Steam Train said. “You were his friends.”

The Hardrock Kid. The old scraggly face, white hair and full beard are captured in this striking photograph by George Ensley, Ensley Photography. Picture was taken just days before the former hobo king died under a tree at the city park here.

“Hoboes are a vanishing breed.

There are only about 40 real hoboes left” - STEAM TRAIN MAURY

It wasn’t a sad occasion.

Oh, there was the time when hobo friend Sparky Smith wiped tears from his eyes as he listened to the eulogy.

“He crossed over Jordan now and we won’t call him back,” Steam Train lamented. “We’ll mourn him and we’ll miss him, but we won’t call him back.”

There was a touching moment when Fry Pan Jack (John Fisk of Seattle), almost late for the service, hurried to take a last look at the Kid. He gazed over the silver gray casket and the flowers. Then Fry Pan looked down at this departed friend and bid a silent farewell.

The activity outside was coming to an end, too, as the press interviews were over. Most of the 150 well-wishers and friends had already filled the Carson Funeral Home.

It was time for the service to begin.

Steam Train sat with his eyes closed as organist Linda Morgan presented an original solo and Rev. John Beebout of Community United Methodist Church gave an opening prayer.

Nearby, in the front row, sat Virginia Slim (Steve

Anderson of Richmond, Va.), Fry Pan Jack and Sparky Smith.

Rev. Beebout read from Psalms 139 and 1 John 4:724. During his eulogy, Steam Train took his red bandanna he called a “hangover from the old days” of hot flying cinders and burning steam, and placed it on the coffin. He raised his crooked cane - a piece of driftwood from Lake Erie - and pointed it to the casket.

“I’ll wave the cane over him as the king and wish him Godspeed,” he said.

Steam Train told a hobo poem written around 1900 that says departed hoboes ride the tail of comets throughout the universe. “I don’t really believe that,” he confided, “but that’s what the poet thinks.”

Rev. Beebout never knew the Hardrock Kid. “I know if I had,” the minister said, “he would have had many stories he could have told me. I know he loved God’s outdoors and he died as he wished, beneath God’s sky . . . beneath a tree in the park.”

Beebout spoke of the love of God. He said, “God cares for us, He believes the best about us, He sees the beautiful in us, and He knows the hidden qualities of our spirits.”

Before concluding his service with the prayer of St. Francis of Assisi, Rev. Beebout said, “Judge not, lest ye be judged. Remember, death is the great leveler. It puts us all in the hands of God.” Several times during the service, strains of “King of the Road” were played by the organist.

It was a serviced attended by curious, well-meaning people. They watched as Steam Train Maury and Fry Pan Jack guided the casket into the hearse to be taken to Evergreen Cemetery in Britt.

Atop the casket was a spray which bore the letters “Hardrock Kid.” The red bandanna placed there by the reigning hobo king remained in place.

Several hours later at Britt, the Hardrock Kid, among more friends and well-wishers, was buried beneath a pine tree, not far from where he could have boarded a railroad boxcar.

LEFT: They came from miles to mourn the loss of a dear friend, one of their own. Steam Train Maury, who many considered Patriarch of the Hoboes, attended funeral services at Ogden then bid his final farewell at Britt where a fellow “King” was put to rest.

OGDEN, Iowa (AP) - The casket was draped with a red neckerchief, the symbol of the true railriding hobo, as 150 young and old paid their last respects Saturday to the Hardrock Kid the story began.

Steam Train Maury (born Maury W. Graham) passed away Nov. 18, 2006 at the age of 89.

Covetousness is a mindset found in the Old and New Testaments and is listed as one of the blackest sins. Just what is covetousness?

There are various shades of meaning in Scripture. The general meaning is “the inordinate desire to have more things than one possesses.” Covetousness may be when a man’s desire for things outruns his desire to please God. For example, Luke 12:16-21 is the account of the man who, when abundantly blessed by God, could only think of himself. He had the ability to help others, but let material things make him selfish.

Sometimes it means, “A calculated effort to acquire gain through dishonest, unfair, and unscrupulous means.” Paul was thinking of this when he wrote, “For neither at any time used we flattering words, as ye know, nor a cloke of covetousness; God is witness” (1 Thessalonians 2:5). Gambling fits this category, where a man would try to take another man’s possessions by a game of chance. The man never hopes to lose his possessions, and gambles in hopes of acquiring another’s possessions without working for them. Covetousness is behind it all.

Sometimes covetousness is just loving money too much. The Pharisees were covetous (Luke 16:14). Paul wrote that “…in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous…,” and he used the word covetousness in this way when he wrote, “I have coveted no man’s silver, or gold, or apparel” (Acts 20:33).

Desire is natural, but covetousness is unnatural. When desire for money and things is stronger than desire to be honest, charitable, or to show kindness or genuine sympathy to others, we’re guilty of the sin of covetousness. Is it serious to be guilty of this? Yes: “…Take heed, and beware of covetousness; for a man’s life does not consist in the abundance of the things which he possesses” (Luke 12:15). “But now I have written unto you not to keep company, if any man that is called a brother be a fornicator, or covetous, or an idolater…with such an one not to eat” (1 Corinthians 5:11). “Mortify therefore you members which are on the earth: fornication, uncleanness…and covetousness which is idolatry” (Colossians 3:5). We invite you to come search for the Truth with us!

See “In Search of the Lord’s Way”, Sunday at 7:30 am on KCWI, cable Ch. 9!

We would like to invite you to worship with us at 502 W. Walnut!

Black Hills Energy Wants To Make Sure You Are Ready For Winter Winter will arrive sooner than we think, and Black Hills Energy is encouraging everyone to be prepared instead of waiting for the snow to fly.

“Like a fireman when the bell rings, Black Hills Energy’s winter emergency plans are in place and our employees are ready to respond quickly and effectively when called upon,” said Tracy Peterson, vice president of Black Hills Energy’s Iowa natural gas operations. “Safe, reliable service is always our priority,” he said. “We offer safety tips and suggestions at www. blackhillsenergy.com to help our customers prepare as well.”

“Natural gas is a clean, safe, reliable source of energy for heating more than 70 million homes in the United States,” Peterson said. “You schedule regular maintenance on a car for efficient performance, safe operation and longer life. In the same way, it’s important to get an annual furnace inspection and tune-up to ensure that your heating equipment is running safely, properly and efficiently.”

A few items to have on hand should a winter storm impact the operation of your heating equipment, a supply of blankets, flashlights and fresh batteries (including a fully charged cellphone battery) are a good start including non-perishable foods that don’t need to be cooked or refrigerated. If downed limbs or other incidents interrupt power, don’t open the refrigerator any more than necessary as cold and frozen food can last up to 24 hours if left undisturbed.

Black Hills Energy also recommends regularly inspected carbon monoxide detectors. Carbon monoxide is a colorless and odorless byproduct of the incomplete burning of fuels including wood, gasoline, charcoal and natural gas. Signs of a potential carbon monoxide leak can include, but are not limited to, flu-like symptoms – a scratchy throat, runny nose, headache, drowsiness or nausea. Other indicators could include frosted windows due to excessive humidity, or a draft from the front of the furnace when it is not turned on.

If you ever believe you smell natural gas or think carbon monoxide is present, leave the premises immediately and call 911 and Black Hills Energy’s emergency service line, 888-694-8989.

“If you’re a Black Hills Energy customer and you have questions about home heating safety, please consult www.blackhillsenergy.com or call us,” Peterson said.

SHERIFF’S REPORT Monday, Oct. 10 8:06 a.m.: The Polk County Sheriff arrested Johnette Lomax on a warrant from Boone County. She was transported to the BCJ. 4:01 p.m.: A person called the BCSO to report a theft of a wallet from Camp Hantesa. Numerous credit and bank cards were taken, with some activity reported on one of the cards shortly after the theft was reported. The investigation into the incident is continuing.

Tuesday, Oct. 11 8:13 p.m.: A person called the BCSO to report an accident with

injuries at E-26 and Mallard Ave. A car driven by Carrie Cook swerved to miss a deer in the road, went into the ditch and struck a tree. Cook had to be extricated from the vehicle by rescue personel. She was taken to BCH for treatment.

Thursday, Oct. 13 8:14 a.m.: A person came to the BCSO to report a burglary at his residence in the 1100 block of 240th St. A deputy was sent to the residence to begin an investigation.

A suspect was developed, and the investigation into the incident is continuing.

ast week I was feeling thankful for all the wonderful things in my life and the relatively quiet, peaceful community in which I live. I say relatively because, like pretty much everywhere these days, there are some not so pleasant things. Like drugs and crime.

There was a front page story in last week’s Taos News about a big marijuana plant bust. It’s harvest time and helicopters fly low across the mesa surrounding Taos looking for illegal crops. When I read the names of the persons arrested in last week’s big bust, I had to chuckle. I think one of those guys had come for a truckload of horse manure for his “garden” last spring. Those plants apparently did very well, fertilized nicely! I remember having my suspicions at the time about what kind of garden he was planting.

Break-ins and theft around town are up. I guess some people’s idea of preparing for winter is different than others. But looking on the bright side, these negative things can’t stifle the enjoyment of autumn activities and the spectacular beauty of the area.

We recently had a particularly wonderful equine-assisted therapy session with a group of Native American teenage girls. At the start of the session, we did introductions. It was interesting to learn that every girl was from a different tribe. There is much individuality among tribal cultures, each unique in their own ways. One girl had been in the program a year ago. She said that when she learned she was to go to another residential program, she was determined to not go unless she could come to the center at Taos Pueblo, because she wanted to come back to the horse sanctuary again. I love it when the kids seem to get a lot out of their time with the horses, but hearing that made me realize just how important it is to some of them.

After the girls left that day, I saw a new note on our dry erase board. A couple years ago, when the college kids from SMU were here volunteering, one had written “SMU loves ESS” on the board and drew a little horse face with hearts next to it. Underneath that note was another message - BHC loves ESS! Signed, the girls’ wing. That really made my day.

We completed the final lessons of the therapeutic riding program the first week of October and now have some extra time to do fun things with the horses and donkeys. We made some creative obstacles in the arena and set up little jumps in the round pen for training the mini’s. We worked with Bindy and Marley, the miniature donkeys, teaching them to trot around the round pen, go over the jumps, stop in a square, and put their front feet up on the lower step of the mounting block. Now if I could teach my dog some tricks, we could have a dog and donkey show next year!

Bindy is happy to have Marley back. It was a sad time here a couple weeks ago when Bindy’s girls, Grace and Joy, were adopted out to a new home. Those big donkeys were his family. In the first couple of years here, we had a little donkey named Marley that was a boarder in the winter months. He and Bindy were best friends. Every spring when Marley went back to his owner, Bindy would grieve for days. Marley’s owner had said that when she was ready to give up riding and sell her horse that Marley was companion to, she would donate Marley to the sanctuary. It never happened. Years went by and we’d tried somewhat unsuccessfully to find another donkey to be a companion for little Bindy. Then last month the lady called and said it was time. Did we still want Marley? YES! I talked to Bindy and told him the girls were going to a new home, but Marley would be back and he’d never have to leave again.

So now Marley is here. At first Bindy was a bit reserved with him. He wasn’t sure whether to trust that this time Marley was here for good. But now they are best buds again. It’s great seeing the donkeys together again after all these years. It’s pretty cool when dreams come true, even for little donkeys! And the girls are doing great in their new home with a new job as guard donkeys for a little herd of goats.

It’s really nice to have good, fun things happen these days, as the world seems to get a bit crazier all the time. It’s horrifying to hear of the destruction caused by the hurricane on the east coast. If Mother Nature is not being hard on our land, mankind is. With winter approaching, I wonder how long the stand-off against the pipeline can hold out. And as Election Day draws closer, it’s hard to imagine how that will go and what effects the outcome will bring to our country. It’s all a bit scary. Maybe someday we’ll look back on these days and say, hey, we lived through this. We can live through anything. Or, it wasn’t that bad. Or simply be thankful that this, too, has passed. Life goes on and there is always hope for a brighter future. I’m sure!

Until next time, Ruth B

NOBODY COVERS THE BULLDOGS LIKE WE DO!

Eagle Grove defeats the Bulldogs 21-7

by AUSTIN KREBER

OGDEN REPORTER SPORTS

The Ogden high school football team’s defense came to play but a couple of ill-timed fumbles cost Ogden the victory in a 21-7 loss to Eagle Grove.

Ogden started off with a quick start, putting up 7 points very early with a nice catch and run by Nathan Kennedy. He caught the pass about five yards from the line of scrimmage, and made a quick turn and ran half the field into the end zone.

Nathan Kennedy has recently came back from injury so Head Coach Jacob Burger says having him back has been great for this team. Kennedy had 2 receptions for 72 yards.

Ogden’s defense was strong for the most part all game. They held Eagle Grove to only 209 yards total.

That is great for this defense who has struggled some in recent weeks.

This was also the fewest points Ogden has allowed since their week one win against Woodward Acad-

emy.

Ogden was able to move the ball though. They had 214 yards which isn’t great, but it was enough to move the ball. Freshman Sam Christensen carried most of the load with 94 yards passing on 15 attempts and 6 completions. He also carried the ball 26 times but only for 43 yards.

They just had some mistakes deep in Eagle Grove territory.

“Had a lot of chances to score some points and just couldn’t put it in, fumbling deep in their territory twice,” Burger said about the offense. Fumbles have been a big problem so far this season for Ogden. On Friday, it was two more in Eagle Grove’s territory that prevented Ogden from capitalizing on their long drives.

Overall, Burger is pleased with the growth and development from the players. The team has improved week to week and he’s seeing it.

Kids are improving and some of the freshmen are starting to play above their age.”

Ogden is handed a pair of losses

by AUSTIN KREBER

OGDEN REPORTER SPORTS

Ogden volleyball girls had a chance to break the school record for wins in a season but stayed at 13 with losses against Des Moines Christian and ranked WoodwardGranger. They will have to wait until next week to see if they can reach that win number 14.

Ogden didn’t play their best volleyball and Des Moines Christian brought their big hitters and blockers, helping them win in 3 sets.

Ogden started off poorly with a 25-13 loss in the first set. They followed that with a 25-19 set where they came back and gave Des Moines Christian a late scare.

The last set ended up 25-16 where it finished with a couple sloppy mistakes.

Coach Ranee Carter felt that Ogden didn’t do their best. “We didn’t play to our potential. I know we can play better. We didn’t play bad, but we didn’t do our best. Des Moines Christian brought it though and we just got beat,” Carter said.

“We were sloppy and we communicated poorly.”

Overall Ogden didn’t have the best game. They started off strong

in all three sets, but faltered midway through. Part of that was the ferociousness of Des Moines Christian. They were deadly with their kills, with an efficiency of 34%.

That included one player for Des Moines Christian, Ava VanSlouen, getting more kills (16) by herself than Ogden had total (13). They dominated Ogden up front, adding 14 blocks.

Speaking of blocking, that’s what Carter really thinks Ogden needs to improve on before regionals begin.

“We need to start blocking. We have struggled with that all season,” Carter said. “We also need to get on the same page. We have to be able to talk and work together as a team.”

Despite the loss, she still thinks the team is really having a lot of fun.

“This team has learned not just how to win, but to have fun playing the game of volleyball. And that’s what was missing from this program a lot. We will keep continuing having fun until the end of the season.”

CC season winds down; Districts are Thursday

by AUSTIN KREBER

OGDEN REPORTER SPORTS

The Ogden High School boys’ cross country team ran very well this week and the girls had some great individual performances in the meet at WCAC conference championship meet.

The boys team placed third, led once again by senior Andrew Stumbo. Stumbo blazed to a great finish with a time of 16:58.52, about 14 seconds faster than the second place runner. He has placed first in every cross country meet he has competed in this year. He has been on a tear and will hopefully continue that to state.

Stumbo wasn’t the only Bulldog to have a strong outing. Ogden had 6 other runners place in the top 50 at the meet. Gershom Levi ended up at 17th place with a time of 18.38.95. Jacob Hinman wasn’t that far behind him, ending up at 21st place and 16 seconds behind.

Blake Gregory, Garrett Buxton, Aleks Kester, and Isaac Lewiston also placed in the top 50.

Overall, the boys placed 3rd which is a great result. They ended

ranked Woodward Granger.

Ogden improved each set, but fell in each of them. They lost 2511, 25-18, and 25-21, with the third set being a very close game. Overall this was a pretty good showing for Ogden against such a tough team.

For reference, earlier in this season Woodward-Granger beat Madrid 25-3 in one of the sets. This is a very good team.

That said, Ogden didn’t help themselves with quite a few errors when attempting to spike the ball. They totaled 15 kills but had 10 errors, giving up free points to Woodward-Granger. Overall they weren’t very efficient, with a 6.8% kill efficiency.

Ogden did do a very good job of serving. They made very few errors with only 2 in 52 serves. They also had 5 aces with Charlie Klauenberg coming up with 4 of them.

Klauenberg also had a good game up front with 3 kills and 0 errors on 11 attempts. She had the highest kill efficiency out of all the Bulldogs with 27.3%.

Overall this wasn’t the win they were hoping for, but it showed that Ogden can hang with WoodwardGranger who is in their regional bracket. Ogden starts off regionals next Monday at Grundy Center after earning a bye.

up with 104 points, not far behind second place Panorama. Adair Casey-Guthrie Center blew away the competition with 38 points.

The girls team had a couple of standout performances at the WCAC conference championship meet. Junior Hannah Booth was stellar like normal, ending up 10th.

She ran a time of 22:26.37. Junior Camryn Buxton wasn’t far behind, finishing 13 seconds behind and 2 spots back. The rest of the team struggled with the competitive conference as the next Bulldog didn’t finish until 25:06.06. That was Trinitie Barnett at 34th place. Four spots after that Gabby Diggs crossed the finish line. Aubrey Keenan was the last Bulldog to place in the top 50, finishing at 45th place.

Lisa Melchert of Ogden and Bob Westrum of Boone won back to back gold Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 17 and 18, 2016 at Quincy, Ill. Starting in a field of 40-plus boats, Melchert and Westrum quickly moved into lead positions on a five-mile stretch of rapidly flowing river. They competed the historic run dating back to the mid 1800s in 46:31 for Melchert and 40.20 for Westrum.

“The strong currents running through the course made it a bit ‘dicey’ but we had a good boat and great weather,” said Melchert.

Sunday’s race was an extension of Saturday. Starting 10 miles further upstream in a channel next to the river, Melchert and Westrum got

In this close cross country meet, Ogden finished in 6th place out of the 8 teams. They had a score of 128. It was a close meet as the 3rd place team finished with 106 points and the 7th place team had 130.

Panorama’s 59 points barely edged out Adair Casey-Guthrie Center’s 60 for first place.

out and held on to the lead in their divisions again. This time, around 30 boats participated. Protected in the channel from wind and waves, and with a good downstream current, you could really fly. Westrum finished in a time of 1:47.53 and Melchert 2:05.58.

An awards presentation was held at the historic Westside Boat Club from which rowing teams from Quincy, Ill. competed in national and international races in the 1800s. The old photographs and silver-plated trophies even today are impressive.
