Holstein branding/marketing group reviews city slogans The Holstein branding/marketing committee met Nov. 9. The committee looked at other city’s tag lines and discussed what it felt were effective and ineffective slogans. Purpose of a tag line: To get people to stop and come into town, grab attention, needs to be easy and memorable, it should be catchy, it should be unique, may be humorous, the community needs to be able to deliver on the message, it needs to reach beyond the local connections, bring out the fact that Holstein is centrally located, Holstein has it all and Holstein’s heritage. Tag line word suggestions: Nickel-dime-quarter, belong, alive, diverse – diversity, opportunities, progress – progressive, optimistic, quaint and unique. Phrases that came up: Small but have it all. We may be small, but we have it all. The community that’s small but has it all. Concern was expressed about not using the existing: “Willkommen Freunde.” Can this still be incorporated into the tag line or used elsewhere in marketing strategy? The committee identified needs the community has and what groups/organizations would po-

tentially deal with those needs: Rosemary Clausen committee: Develop concert schedule, which is children/family oriented. HDA: Middle income housing, move in ready and storage units. Ida County Economic Development: Pharmacy and daycare facility/business. Chamber: Revitalize downtown, expand farmers market and downtown business events. The committee is still in the brainstorming phase of the branding process. Anyone is welcome to attend meetings. The committee will take these ideas to businesses and organizations and get additional ideas. The branding/marketing committee also met Nov. 16.

Holstein approves resignation, discusses Long Lines agreement The Holstein City Council accepted councilman James Doxtad’s resignation during its meeting Nov. 7. Doxtad’s resignation was effective immediately. Doxtad’s term, which expires November 2017, will be filled by appointment at the Dec. 5 council meeting.

The council approved the annual urban renewal and annual finance reports. Pay request number five of $107,034 to L&L Builders Co. was approved. A Class C/Class B liquor and wine license was approved for CornerHaus 101. Following a closed session to discuss negotiations regarding acquiring real estate, the council voted to secure protection for East Ridge Development and have city attorney Thad Cosgrove approach Benning heirs and corporation to accomplish it. City administrator Kay Hanson gave an update on the Don Breyfogle nuisance. She has tried calling Breyfogle and also sent a letter but has received no response. Ida County Sheriff Wade Harriman provided statistics for citations, arrests, bookings and civil processes. He said in the first six months of 2015 there were 2,015 citations given out (114 were in Holstein), 79 arrests, 77 bookings and 423 civil processes. During the first six months of this

year, a total of 2,179 (86 in Holstein) citations were issued, there were 175 arrests, 177 bookings and 402 civil processes. Harriman also told the council during the first six months of this year there were 6,828 patrol hours in the county with 1,193 hours were in Holstein. Robert Shontz was present from the Holstein Fire and Ambulance Service to show council members two pieces of equipment the department received thanks to grants. The first piece of equipment allows the ambulance service to do an EKG anywhere and send it to a cardiologist in Sioux City. The cardiologist reads it and determines how and where the patient should be transported. The department received the machine through a Mission Lifeline grant at no cost. Cost of the machine is $26,000. The other machine, the Lucas™ device does chest compressions. It was made possible through a Leona Helmsley healthcare grant. If the department purchased the machine it would have cost $13,000.

North Ida Builders, LLC (estimated $40,000) were approved. The utility committee (Hanson, Mayor Connie Ludvigson and Mary Gross and Danny Gebers) met with Bill Gaukel from Long Lines to discuss the franchise agreement. The utility committee requested a 15-year agreement with a 5 percent franchise fee and a more detailed quarterly report. They also asked that Long Lines address issues that are continuing to happen with Long Lines’ service and rebate/refund for days when there is no service. Hanson said Gaukel contacted her late in the day and said Long Lines prefers a 25-year agreement. The committee will meet with Gaukel again to continue discussions before bringing a recommendation to the council. Councilperson Bonnie Stevenson asked if Long Lines was to serve the entire town. She was told yes to which she replied she’d been told their service doesn’t reach to the city limit. This topic will be discussed with Gaukel.

Weather watchers: Keith and Sylvia Carstens of Holstein received a 25-year length of service award from the National Weather Service Nov. 10. Presenting the award was Brad Adams of the National Weather Service in Sioux Falls, S.D. (Advance photo by Mike Thornhill)

The National Weather Service (NWS) presented a 25-year length of service award to Keith and Sylvia Carstens of Holstein Nov. 10. The award recognized the Carstens for their dedication to collecting temperature and precipitation for the NWS since November 1991. Observing Program Leader Brad Adams of the NWS in Sioux Falls, S.D, presented the award. The daily temperature and precipitation data collected by the Carstens becomes a permanent

part of the climatic record for the local area and nation. These data are used extensively by many other sectors, including the NWS and state climatologists. This data is also used by numerous others in the public and private sectors for agricultural planning and assessment, engineering, environmental impact assessment, utilities planning and litigation. These records continue to acquire greater value with the passing of time. Adams says the nation owes a

debt of gratitude to the cooperative weather observers and organizations that have quietly and steadily built up what amounts to a priceless national treasure in the tradition of volunteer service to their country. The United States Government, the NWS, state climatologist, community and others appreciate this service and thank those, such as Sylvia and Keith, who have worked so diligently to take accurate weather observations in Holstein for 25 years.

ICCB raises camping rates The Ida County Conservation Board raised modern camping and cabin rates at Crawford Creek Recreational Area (CCRA) at its meeting Nov. 7. Following a discussion of camping and camper rates, the board voted to increase modern camping rates from $17 to $18 per night, the Walnut cabin rate to $75 per night and Willow and Lakeview cabins to $65 per night for the 2017 season. Repairing the chimney and heating the east side of the depot at Moorehead Park more efficiently were discussed. Parks Director Paige Alesch will contact contractors to fix the chimney and the wiring to the ceiling fans on the east side of the depot. The board discussed adding a

wood-burning stove that the conservation board already has in its possession, if the fireplace and ceiling fan repair doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t correct the heating issue. In new business, board gave its support to the Ida County Historical Society to seek grant money to repair the floor and paint the Douglas Schoolhouse in Moorehead Park. Alesch and board members will work with conservation staff and volunteers to pave two camping pads at CCRA before the end of the fiscal year.

Letter to the Editor To the editor: Like many of you, I have been trying to work through the tragedies that our law enforcement community has faced over the past several months. Words can’t express how heavy our hearts are for those officers that made the ultimate sacrifice for our cause, for their loved ones and for the departments they served. While the cowardly murders that took the lives of the officers in Dallas and Des Moines were senseless, the mission these officers worked for most certainly was not. Their cause, the cause of law enforcement, is just. Law enforcement officers are here to keep order. And to do so in times when order seems impossible. During these times of tragedy it is imperative that leaders at all levels of government step up. National leaders must step up and not only speak words that condemn these acts of violence, but then act in such a way that those words have meaning. State and local leaders need to be provided with education and information that clearly articulates the training and considerations that go into the decisions that our officers make on a daily basis. As law enforcement leaders, it is our responsibility to maintain order within our agencies, so that our agencies can maintain order within our communities. It is up to us to provide a professional, respectful and compassionate law enforcement team to serve our citizenry.

As your sheriff I feel it is my responsibility to provide understanding and to aid in educating our citizens. I feel it is imperative that we educate the public on what we do, how we do it and why it is done that way. However, I must balance the desire to educate the public with my foremost responsibility, which is to keep my deputies and staff safe. My deputies, dispatchers, jailers and civilian staff perform their duties each day in a proactive, professional manner. They do so understanding full well that by taking the stand to be in law enforcement they have put themselves in harms’ way. They accept these risks willingly on your behalf. I have been humbled over the past several weeks at the number of people who have stopped to shake my hand and thank me for what I do, and by those who have sent kind words of encouragement. In addition, several organizations in Ida County have come forward recently and shown their support for law enforcement through amazing gestures of kindness. The Ida County Ministerial Association held a grill out for members of my staff in August. My office works closely with this great organization each year to ensure that those needing assistance in our communities are provided it. The Ida County Cattlemen also held a steak feed for members of our office in late August to show their gratitude for what we do

each day. It was a great night and gave my staff an opportunity to make connections with citizens they may otherwise never get to know. In addition, the Ida Grove Chamber of Commerce, spearheaded by Clyde Brenner, began a blue light project so those citizens who want to show their support for law enforcement in a visible manner can do so by displaying a blue light in their business or at their home. Well over a hundred blue lights were distributed to area businesses and citizens in September. We still have a few blue lights remaining at the sheriff’s office if you know of someone who would still like to participate in this worthy project please have them contact me at the sheriff’s office. Just last week Johnson Propane from Battle Creek showed their appreciation for our office by sending over a wonderful tray of goodies that was enjoyed by all the staff. All these kind gestures and kind words are much appreciated by those of us in law enforcement. It reminds us why we chose public service as a career. Much too often law enforcement personnel can become cynical. We forget that the vast majority of our citizens appreciate what we do and what we stand for. The kind acts and kind words help to remind us that the work we do is important and that the cause we strive for is worth the sacrifices we make each day. Wade Harriman Ida County sheriff

November is Diabetes Awareness Month Approximately one in 11 Iowans has some form of diabetes and about one in three Iowa adults has prediabetes, a condition in which blood glucose (sugar) levels are high, but not high enough yet to be classified as type two diabetes. Type two diabetes is the most common form of diabetes and people with this condition are at higher risk for heart disease, stroke and serious diabetes-related complications. It’s important to know if you have prediabetes or

diabetes. November is National Diabetes Month. If you have diabetes, IDPH encourages you to work with your health care provider to manage the condition and prevent complications. Talk to your health care provider about attending a diabetes self-management education program. A list of diabetes self-management education programs in Iowa is available at http://bit.ly/ DSMEinIA. IDPH also encourages Iowans

who do not have diabetes to take a quick one-minute risk test at http://DoIHavePrediabetes.org to determine their prediabetes risk. If you have prediabetes, the National Diabetes Prevention Program can help prevent or delay type two diabetes. A list of National Diabetes Prevention Programs is available at http://bit.ly/NDPPinIA. Additional information about IDPH’s diabetes prevention and control efforts is available at http://idph.iowa.gov/diabetes.

Confinement feeding operation producers: now is time to take soil samples Confinement feeding operation producers who must have a manure management plan (MMP) are reminded soil tests are required once every four years. The best times to sample soils are in the fall after harvest and before fertilizer or manure is applied or in the spring before fertilization. “Producers should check the age of their soil samples and get samples on fields that need it,” says Jeremy Klatt, DNR environmental specialist. “Fields that will be added to the manure plan must also be sampled.” Crop producers who accept manure from confinements may also want to discuss with their manure provider how the P index could affect manure application on their cropland and if they need to have soil samples taken. Producers must take at least one sample for every 10 acres of

field, following Iowa State University Extension’s soil sampling recommendations. Please see ISU publication PM 0287 “Take a Good Soil Sample to Help Make Good Decisions” or NCR 13 Report 348 “Soil Sampling for Variable-Rate Fertilizer and Lime Application” for information on sampling procedures. Another good reference is PMJ 1688 “A General Guide for Crop Nutrient and Limestone Recommendations in Iowa.” Find even more information on the ISU Soil Fertility page. Producers must submit the phosphorus or P index to DNR as part of a complete MMP once every four years. The P index takes into consideration the lay of the land, the distance from a stream and the phosphorus that is available in the soil. Running the P index requires soil test results, erosion calculations using the revised universal

soil loss equation two (RUSLE 2) to see whether manure can be land applied based on N crop uptake rates or P crop uptake rates. Find detailed requirements for soil sampling, testing and the P index in the Iowa Administrative Code Chapter 65.17(17) and 65.17(18). MMP renewal deadlines It’s easy to check the DNR website for the next time your manure management plan (MMP) is due. Go to the AFO database, click on search at the top of the page and enter your facility ID number. No ID number? Search by the facility’s or owner’s name. Look for the MMP due date in the bottom right corner. Due dates generally remain the same. If it’s Nov. 1 this year, it will be Nov. 1 next year. For more detailed information about your facility, click on the red arrow on the left side.

Let’s Go to the Movies TONIGHT!

vening For an e ” fun of “REEL

Back To The Future by Christine Wiese The latter half of the 20th century saw a proliferation of poets and performers who sought to influence both the music and politics of their era. “A Band Called Honalee,” billed as a tribute to Peter, Paul and Mary, appeared at The Clausen Center in Holstein last week in an attempt to bring their message front and center again. The group is young with all the best attributes of youth - enthusiasm, zest for life and the desire to make the world a better place. They don’t sing the old songs just to jog fond memories (although they do) but to prod their audiences to work together to effect a change in the universal ethos. The songs they chose to perform were derived from the likes of Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger and The Weavers - all harbingers and participants in the great folk revo-

lution. Without this foundation we may not have had Gordon Lightfoot, Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, et al. We may not have had “For Loving Me,” “Both Sides Now” or “Blowin’ in the Wind.” As one of the band members said, “We love these songs, these artists, these song writers.” Listening to them again is like enjoying an Indian Summer afternoon walking through a golden shower of autumn leaves “feeling groovy.” That was part of it. The other part was a cold stiff wind engendered by the Vietnam War. “Times They Are-A Changing,” “Great Mandula” and “If I Had My Way” spoke of weightier matters. The young back then were clamoring against war and pleading for peace. Those voices are being heard again today and need to be heeded. Unless we can understand the past we will be unable to figure out the future.

We need to be inspired by groups like “A Band Called Honalee.” Through them and others like them we may finally be able to come together and forge a world were love reigns and justice prevails. To quote Albert Einstein, “Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding.” There is no artifice or clever stratagem connected with this ensemble. They are honest, genuine and extremely likable. Their talent is prodigious. Those in the audience that night felt an instant camaraderie with those on the stage. One person was heard to say during intermission, “This is one show I hate to see end.” “A Band Called Honalee” offered both entertainment and enlightenment. We couldn’t have asked for anything more except maybe more of the same.

Ida High Achievers learn about cattle fitting The Ida High Achievers met Oct. 9. Roll call was “name your favorite breed of cattle,” with 18 members answering. Lucas Else led the pledge. The secretary’s report and treasurer’s report were given and approved. Old business included discussion on record books with 11 members of the club completing one. Old business also included discussion about National 4-H week, the 4-H skating party and

discussion of a judging team. New business included a reminder about 4-H awards day at the Ida Grove Catholic church on Nov. 6 and 4-H night held at the Muskies hockey game also on Nov. 6. There was also discussion about the youth poultry workshop on Nov. 19 in Webster City. The 4-Her’s were then assisted while filling out goal sheets for next year’s record books. The historians made sugges-

tions regarding a harvest activity. Morgan Todd made a motion to go to the Schaller haunted house with a bonfire afterwards. Abby Else seconded the motion. The 4-H pledge was led by Ryan Paulsrud. A program was then given on cattle fitting by Lucas Else, Cameron Boyle and Ryan Paulsrud. The meeting was then adjourned. Morgan Todd Secretary

Review gear before shotgun deer seasons begin

RV archery: Ridge View High School’s outdoor education class recently finished up its unit on archery. The students practiced their bow and arrow skills throughout the unit and finished with a tournament on Nov. 4. (Photo submitted)

The first of Iowa’s shotgun deer seasons begin Dec. 3 giving hunters ample time to get their gun, cleaned, oiled and patterned before heading to the timber. “Most hunters want their guns sighted in for deer season. We suggest they come to a shooting range and begin at 25 yards and work out distances where they feel comfortable taking a shot in the field,” said Megan Wisecup, hunter education administrator for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. “Practicing and knowing how the gun will perform before opening day is a good way to prepare for a successful hunt.”

Ranges managed by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources can be found at http:// w w w. i o wa d n r. g ov / H u n t i n g / PlacesToHuntShoot/IowaShootingRanges.aspx Sighting in the gun is one part of a pre-hunt checklist hunters should have that includes visiting with the landowner or landowners where they plan to hunt to confirm they have access, go through their equipment including the blaze orange to make sure it is in working order and the blaze orange hasn’t faded to noncompliance. “Hunters want to be seen by other hunters so we encourage them to wear more than the minimum amount of blaze

orange required by law. Blaze orange can fade after years of wear so be sure that vest, hat or jacket is still bright and in good shape, or replace it before the season begins,” Wisecup said. Hunters in Iowa’s two shotgun deer seasons often use a technique of hunters pushing the timber forcing deer toward other hunters who are blocking their exit. While this is a popular technique, it is not the only way to participate. Individual hunters or those in groups of two or three can approach the hunt by focusing on deer travel lanes, bedding areas or food sources similar to the approaches taken by muzzleloader or bow hunters.

Chilly run, chili cook off results The chilly run and chili cook off to benefit the Conservation Center at Moorehead Park was held Saturday, Nov. 5 on the trails at Moorehead Park. Placings in the chilly run were: Five-mile men—Steve Hugo, Mason City, first; Corey Tarr, Battle Creek, second and Ryan Slechta, Schleswig, third. Five-mile women—Bailey Hare, Ida Grove, first; Marissa Skirvin, Ida Grove, second and Mary Carlson, Spirit Lake, third.

Ten-mile men—Sean Wilson, Pleasant Dale, Neb., first; Garrett Nichols, Ida Grove, second and Jerrid Johansen, Omaha, Neb., third. Ten-mile women—Sara Sjomeling, Sioux Falls, S.D., first; Jen Muchlinski, Jackson, Minn., second and Robyn Devitt, Ida Grove, third. Chili cook off winners were Amanda Eason, Ida Grove, first; Sue Knop, Arthur, second and Melissa Weitl, Odebolt, third. One vote separated the top three.

Area clubs play in Storm Lake Jamborees The annual Storm Lake Basketball Jamborees, sponsored by the Storm Lake Hy-Noon Kiwanis and the Storm Lake Times will tip off the basketball season for 18 high school teams the next two Saturdays. The list of schools participating includes the O-A/BC-IG girls and boys and the Ridge View girls and boys.
