Residents ask questions about ambulance service Voters to decide on funding service in April

By Vinde Wells Editor The half dozen people who attended the Oregon Fire Protection District Board meeting last week asked lots of questions about the ambulance service, both now

and in the future.

Oregon residents Bonnie Bergstrom asked board members Sept. 17 why they aren’t yet using the building and two ambulances recently donated to the fire district

by Jim and Betty Ferris, co-managers of the Oregon Ambulance Service, Inc., a private not-for-profit business which closed its doors June 17.

Bergstrom also asked where Medicare and

Medicaid payments are going now that ambulance calls in the community are being handled by ATS Medical Services, a private ambulance service based in Loves Park. “The people of Oregon deserve answers,� said Bergstrom, whose son Chad Bergstrom is the coordinator of the Oregon Fire District’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS).

Jim Barnes, also an Oregon resident, said he had heard

the same questions from several people. “Why isn’t ATS using our ambulance now instead of theirs? Wouldn’t it be cheaper?� he asked.

Barnes said he has also heard the fire district isn’t planning to use the building or ambulances donated by the Ferrises.

Fire trustee Brian Stuart said the building and ambulances are not yet being used because they don’t meet

legal requirements. “We’re trying to fulfill legal requirements,� he said.

The ambulances have been examined by a mechanic and also an inspector from the Illinois Department of Public Health (IDPH), he said.

Needed repairs will cost at least $12,000 “to get them road-worthy,� he said. “We very grateful to Jim and Betty for what they gave us, but free is not always free.�

He said the board is

weighing whether the ambulances should be repaired. One is more than 10 years old and has more than 140,000 miles on it.

The board is also looking into renting or buying ambulances if the proposed referendum for an ambulance service is approved by voters in April, he said.

Stuart explained that the fire district did not officially Turn to A2

By Chris Johnson Reporter A man who had formerly served on the Oregon City Council for nine years has been appointed to fill a vacancy on the board.

Bob Rees was appointed Tuesday night as the commissioner of public property effective Oct. 1.

Patrick Wiesner notified the council he was resigning. “Pat took employment with a company and I received a letter of resignation,� said Mayor Tom Stone. “Pat has done a great job and was worried about the department.

Pat recommended you for the position.�

Rees was the public property commissioner before he lost a reelection bid in the 2011 election . “We have confidence in you,� said Stone. “Thank you,� said Rees. “I will be back for six months.�

Rees said he currently does not have plans to file a nominating petition for the spring election.

Autumn on the Prairie offered a trip back in time

By Chris Johnson Reporter Walking through lush prairie grasses and winding though a savanna was like a trip back in time.

There were no cars, roads or power lines visible when exploring portions of East Heinkle Hill Saturday morning at Nachusa Grasslands during Autumn on the Prairie.

Thousands of acres of prairie land are being restored at the grasslands to recreate what the Midwest had in the 1800s.

Volunteers have been seeding, planting, clearing, and burning the land to destroy invasive species and return the prairie to all its glory.

Mike Crowe, Lindenwood, has been with Nachusa Grasslands for 26 years. “I was one of the first groups of stewards,� he said. “Today you are going to visit

East Heinkle Hill. This is an 18-year-old prairie.�

Crowe was leading a dozen people on a tour of this secluded part of the grasslands. “It was a sandy corn field,� he said. “Now there is tall Indian grass in the field.�

Another grass that was thriving was big blue stem, commonly called turkey foot.

A third grass that had patches in the prairie is cordgrass, spartina. “This grass is good for thatched roofs but on the prairie it is also used for burning,� Crowe said.

These was only some of the hundreds of plant species that make up the prairie.

As the group walked across the land he would pause at several of the plants.

While talking about the White Indigo plant. “This is a legume and has deep roots,� said Crowe. “This allows the plant to grow on this sandy soil.�

In This Week’s Edition...

Crowe went on to talk about how several of the weeds and invasive species have trouble growing in the area because of the drier topsoil.

When the prairie is burned, the native plants have the ability to regrow where the invasive species have limited abilities to survive.

Seeding after the controlled burns ensures the prairie is restored.

One advantage of the burning seems to be a decrease in the number of ticks. “It seems like the ticks are not as bad as they used to be,� said Crowe. “The burning may have kept their numbers down.�

Sections of the Nachusa Grasslands are burned regularly. “Heinkle is burned every second or third year,� said Crowe. “We do

take possession of the building until the property transfer closed on Sept. 16.

It has been inspected by the IDPH and the Illinois State Fire Marshal and does not meet fire safety codes, he said.

For example, he said, the sleeping quarters for EMS personnel are upstairs. Since the windows don’t open, the only way out in case of fire is the stairs.

However, the furnace and water heater are located under the stairs, which violates fire safety codes. “The fire safety codes have changed since 1997 when it was built,� Stuart said.

As a private ambulance service, the Oregon Ambulance Service, Inc., did not have to meet the same requirements for either the building or ambulances that a tax-supported service must comply with, he said.

In answer to the Medicare and Medicaid payments, fire trustee Sharon DeArvil said that money is now going to ATS to pay for transporting patients eligible for those funds.

She said Betty Ferris has told her the Oregon Ambulance Service, Inc. has received money it was entitled to from those sources.

Other questions were raised about how much the

fire district is paying ATS to keep an ambulance and crew at the Oregon Fire Station around the clock.

Stuart said ATS receives $6,000 monthly from the fire district, in addition to the fees paid by patients. “Other fire departments have told us that’s a bargain,� he said.

A summary from ATS showed 37 transports in July for gross charges of $59,118, and 50 transports in August for gross charges of $79,801.

ATS began handling Oregon’s calls on July 1 and has a 10-month contract with the fire district.

The board also went over a draft of the referendum that it plans to put on the April ballot to levy funds for an ambulance service.

DeArvil said the final draft would likely be approved at the December meeting.

No definite amount has been set, she said, because the board is still determining how much the ambulance service is likely to cost.

The maximum amount allowed for ambulance services is 40 cents per $100 of equalized assessed valuation, which translates into approximately $200 on a house valued at $150,000, excluding exemptions.

Oregon resident Marie Tilly asked how the fire district plans to continue to

pay for ambulance services if the referendum passes since it will be a year until tax revenues would be available. “We will continue to provide ambulance service with fire department money,�

Stuart said.

That can be only a shortterm fix, however, because the fire department’s current tax revenues were levied for fire protection.

Stuart said they can be used for ambulance services only if it is not detrimental to providing fire services. “What happens it [the referendum] doesn’t pass?�

Tilly asked. “Then there will be no ambulance service in town,� said DeArvil. “ATS will leave, and we will have to rely on private ambulance services.�

Stuart said that neighboring fire departments cannot provide mutual aid indefinitely for Oregon’s ambulance calls because their ambulance services are paid for by taxpayers in their districts.

If the referendum passes, he said, the Oregon Fire Department will provide a full-time ambulance service with a paid crew, rather than volunteers. “Because of how far we are from any hospital, paramedics out here need to be the best,� he said.

Oregon park district has become a smoke-free zone

By Christi Warren Shaw Media Slowly but surely, the Whiteside County Health Department, in conjunction with the American Lung Association, has been working to convert all of the Sauk Valley’s parks into smoke-free zones.

So far, both the Oregon and Sterling park districts have instituted tight restrictions on where park users can smoke, said Marcia Widolff, director of public health. The next park districts on her radar are Freeport and Dixon, she said.

The Smoke-Free Illinois

Act, passed in 2008, mandates that public places and places of employment must be completely smokefree inside and within 15 feet of entrances, exits, windows, and ventilation intakes.

The Oregon and Sterling park districts both took that a step further, implementing a ban on smoking within 50 feet of all park amenities such as playgrounds and fields. “We just wanted to make sure our park users could come and participate in programs and services offered by the park district, and be in a public place, and not have to worry

about someone smoking near them,� said Erin Folk, executive director of Oregon Park District. “We want people to be able to enjoy the programs and services offered by us without any outside factors or influences that could take away from that experience.�

The Sterling Park District imposed the 50-foot ban in 2009. Doug Jacobs, director of parks and planning for the district, echoed Folk’s reasoning for the decision.

Widolff called the Oregon and Sterling park districts’ decision to instate the bans so early on “progressive.�

The Oregon Republican Reporter is published weekly by Ogle County Newspapers, a division of the B.F. Shaw Printing Co. The Oregon Republican Reporter was founded in 1851 as the Ogle County Reporter. In 1889, the Ogle County Republican, a competing newspaper, was started. In 1890, the Republican was sold to Ziba Landers. Upon his death in 1939, the newspaper was assumed by his son, Ernest D. In March 1951, Paul F. Behan, owner of the Reporter, and E.D. Landers and his son E.G. (Tim) Landers united the newspapers into the Republican Reporter. Ernest D. Landers died in 1966, and E.G. and Behan became partners. Eventually, E.G. Landers assumed sole ownership, and in 1985 he sold the newspaper to B.F. Shaw Printing of Dixon, publisher of the Sauk Valley Newspapers.

Ogle County Newspapers also prints the Mt. Morris Times, Forreston Journal, and Polo's Tri-County Press.

Depot was a stop for the sleek Zephyr train Editor’s note: Otto Dick, Oregon, has researched the people, places, and events important in Oregon’s history for the Ogle County Historical Society.

The following is one of a series of the articles he has written.

By Otto Dick Our first mayor, James Gale, was vice president of the C&I Railroad.

With the coming of this railroad in 1871 we were able to travel by rail to local cities like Rockford, Dixon, Forreston, and Rochelle.

Before the advent of the use of automobiles in the early 19th century they rode the trains to attend high school sporting events in Dixon and Rockford.

After the turn of the century they traveled to Rockford, Dixon, etc. in their horseless carriages.

This reduced the passenger service at the Oregon Depot for several years until the new streamlined Twin Cities Zephyr passenger train appeared on the scene on our railroad in 1936.

The Twin Cities Zephyr connected Chicago to Minneapolis and St. Paul, running five trains past our Oregon Depot each day.

Two trains ran in the morning and two in the afternoon and one during the night.

The two trains heading to the Twin Cities switched engines and continued on to the state of Washington on the Northern Pacific and the Great Northern Railways.

In 1940 the westbound train from Chicago to Saint

In this newspaper clipping. Station Agent Harold Nance works on a computer at the Oregon Depot.

Paul averaged from start to stop, 71 miles per hour, travel time of six hours.

After CW Morse Radio School at Fort Knox, Ky., I rode in a troop car on the Burlington and the Northern Pacific to Tacoma which is located close to Fort Lewis, Washington.

Ralph Budd, president of the CB&Q, and Edward Budd, an auto body manufacturer from Philadelphia, worked together to manufacture an efficient and reliable engine to operate a lightweight train with the use of stainless steel.

By 1934 the Burlington Zephyr named for Zephyrus, the god of the west wind and a symbol of rebirth, was ready. “The stainless steel exterior matched the interior stressing efficiency, clean and simple, compared to the overstuffed look of the Pullman Cars,� a description read.

Ralph Budd organized a publicity stunt for his train.

On May 26, 1934, the Burlington made a dawn to dusk run, from Denver

to Chicago breaking the nonstop speed record.

Local police, the Boy Scouts and the American Legion provided security at each town or city along this route.

This train run was featured in a Hollywood film called the Silver Streak.

The Zephyrs were featured on many routes in the U. S. We had the Twin Cities Zephyr, and the California Zephyr, from Chicago to California, traveled through Princeton and now is Amtrack.

There were many named Zephyr trains including the Mark Twain and the Texas Zephyrs.

Harold Nance, an Oregon station agent gave me the photo of a Zephyr parked at the Oregon Depot after it collided with a snow plow truck.

Harold recalls taking his son into Chicago to see the dusk to dawn run of the Pioneer Zephyr.

Burlington encouraged their employees to see the

movie Silver Streak.

Harold also mentioned that there were times when the Oregon Depot was overflowing with students taking the trains to college or returning home especially at Christmas time.

One of his stories concerned an unhappy customer.

Harold stated they always told non-passengers not to board the Zephyrs because these passenger trains load passengers as quickly as possible and speed away.

The above mentioned nonpassenger boarded the train with his wife, and the train started leaving while he was on board.

He jumped while the train was moving and entered the depot with a nasty mood.

Harold and Dick Lee are two ticket agents who remember the Zephyrs, and both are still living in Oregon.

I enjoy listening to them recalling their railroad memories.

Open house for Depot’s 100th Members of the Oregon Depot Restoration Project will host the building’s 100th anniversary open house from Sept. 30 - Oct. 4 from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily. A pizza party for all past and present volunteers will be Thursday, Oct. 2 at 6 p.m.

The public is invited to the open house to see the restored building and displays.

Volunteers will be available to answer questions.

The Oregon Depot Museum Building was completed in 1914. Many travelers have passed through the historic building, including veterans who returned from World War I, World War II, the Korean War, and Vietnam War. Passenger service was

suspended in 1971 and the building stood empty for many years. It was in a state of disrepair.

In the summer of 2001, with financial assistance from the City of Oregon and several private donors, a group of volunteers formed the Oregon Depot Restoration Project. The group was led by Bob Rees and Jerry Stauffer.

In May of 2002, a group of Oregon High School alumni arrived from all over the country and spent a week helping to restore the building. They have returned every year and recently, have been working on displaying historic articles.

Refreshments will be served.

National 4-H Week is Oct. 5 - 11 In Ogle County, approximately 400 youth participated in community based 4-H clubs last year.

National 4-H Week will be celebrated Oct. 5 through 11.

About 1,300 youth participated in 4-H school programs, special community events, and special interest groups during the year.

Youth were led by more than 350 adult volunteers and classroom teachers.

What was once thought of as a program for “farm kids� has now grown to reach just as many youth from towns, suburbs, and cities.

Currently, Ogle County

has 17 community 4-H clubs.

Anyone who was 5-18 years old by Sept. 1 can participate in project work.

Nearly six million youth are involved in 4-H throughout the nation, making it the largest youth development program in the United States.

As many as 540,000 volunteers, 3,500 professionals, and more than 25 million alumni, supports young people involved in 4-H, from elementary school through high school. Their goal is to shape future leaders and innovators.

Compared to their peers, research shows that youth

involved in 4-H programs excel in several areas. They are: Four times more likely to make contributions to their communities Two times more likely to be civically active Two times more likely to make healthier choices Two times more likely to participate in science programs during 4-H is all about being part of a team, learning new ideas and going new places with old friends and new.

It’s about having people who care and encourage young people to be their best.

It’s about changing the world while helping the people in it.

Join in as 6 million other 4-H members in the country celebrate National 4-H Week Oct. 5 through 11. The theme “That’s 4-H� helps tell the story to people who may not have any idea what 4-H is.

To learn more about 4-H or to get involved, visit the Ogle County 4-H web site at http:// web.extension.illinois.edu/ bdo/, or call the Extension office at 815-732-2191.

AOP Duck Dash to follow Harvest Time Parade The bright orange ducks with the white sailor hats are once again getting ready to race in the 2014 Autumn on Parade Duck Dash.

The plastic quackers will “paddle� down Franklin Street in Oregon at approximately 3:45 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 5, after the Harvest Time Parade. “They will take a swim down our man-made river provided by the Oregon Fire Department on Sunday, following the conclusion of the Harvest Time Parade,� said Duck Dash Co-Chairman Laura Medlar.

The duck dash route is on the block of Franklin Street between Third and Second Streets, along the south side of Conover Square. Nearly 2,500 ducks, each carrying their own number, will be available for adoption at local businesses prior to the festival weekend.

They will also be available for purchase at the Autumn on Parade Booth during the festival. “The adoption fee is $5 each or a ‘6 Quack’ for $25, where six ducks can be

purchased for the price of five,� said co-chairman Jessie Whalen.

All ducks remain the property of the festival.

Adoptive parents of the top 10 chosen ducks will be awarded cash prizes.

Here’s how it works: Each duck has a number ascribed to his/her bottom.

Adoptive parents fill out an adoption form designating that duck based on his/her number.

The duck is then placed in the Duck Dash race line-up.

The first 10 chosen ducks that make it down Franklin Street the day of the race are the winners.

The decision of the judges will be final and winners need not be present to win.

Ducks may be adopted at several area businesses prior to the festival.

Look for the Official Duck Adoption Center signs.

Proceeds from the event benefit the Autumn on Parade festival and Celebrate Oregon Elementary School.

Fall Festival held at Hillcrest Farm The second annual Fall Festival at Hillcrest Farm was held on Sept. 6. University of Illinois Extension joined local veterans and their families at the farm on Lowell Park Rd., Dixon. The farm is owned by the Starner – Stuff family.

The Fall Festival celebrated local heroes and their families. At the beginning of the growing season, the Starner – Stuff family offered free garden plots at the farm for any veterans who were interested.

The project was designed to help veterans and their families learn to grow their own food, share extra produce with others, and to provide an environment for veterans to meet and socialize.

Crundwell’s pension funds a topic at court hearing

By Matt Mencarini Shaw Media Rita Crundwell doesn’t think her pension funds should be part of a courtordered repayment of the nearly $54 million she stole from the city of Dixon.

Motions will be presented next week in federal court regarding the inclusion of the former Dixon comptroller’s pension funds in her courtordered restitution to the city.

Crundwell, who was arrested in April 2012 and later convicted of stealing $53.7 million from the city over 2 decades, sent a letter to the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. State’s Attorney’s Office on Aug. 30.

“I wish to object to the inclusion of these funds in the judgment,” she said in the letter from a federal prison in Waseca, Minnesota. “I feel these funds should be exempt.”

Motions will be made Sept.

29 in Chicago regarding her Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund, which has $73,104.50, and another fund, through Nationwide Retirement Solutions, that has $17,461.36, according to court documents.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Randall Samborn, the public information officer for the office, declined to comment on the case. He said many variables make it unclear how Judge Philip Reinhard will proceed Sept. 29.

Among those uncertainties is legal representation for Crundwell, he said.

Paul Gaziano, a federal public defender who represented Crundwell in her criminal trial, said on Monday that he wasn’t representing her in this matter.

In her letter, Crundwell said she had “no money or assets to hire an attorney” and asked that one be appointed

to her.

As of Thursday, Crundwell had an outstanding balance of $44,452,507.96 from the restitution she was ordered to pay, according to court records.

In December, the city received a $9.2 million check from the sale of Crundwell’s property and assets. Money from other assets, such as her stake in 347 acres of farmland near Dixon, have come into the city as well.

The city also received $30 million from a settlement with its former auditors and bank. That money does not count toward the restitution Crundwell must pay.

With the recovery money, the city has paid off some of its debt and placed funds into reserves. It also used $1 million for the River Street sewer project and authorized the use of up to $1.2 million for repairs to the Dixon Public Library, leaving about $10 million.

Register to vote for general election by Tuesday, Oct. 7 The last day to register to vote or make a change of address for the Nov. 4 general election is Tuesday, Oct. 7, Ogle County Clerk Rebecca Huntley said Monday.

Huntley and the Illinois State Board of Elections urges Ogle County residents to check their registration status.

Anyone who voted in the March general primary election and has not moved has a current registration, she said, but anyone who experienced difficulty at the polls in March should check his or her registration.

Call Huntley’s office at 815-732-1110 to check.

“If you are not registered from your current address, you will not be able to vote at the Nov. 2, 2014 general

election,” Huntley said.

“Take the time to check your registration and discuss with family and friends the status of their registration.”

To register go to the local library, city clerk’s office, driver’s license facility (if updating a driver’s license), or the county clerk’s office.

Races on the Nov. 4 ballot include Constitutional Amendments and statewide advisory questions as well as Illinois governor and lieutenant governor, Illinois attorney general, Illinois secretary of state, Illinois comptroller, representatives in U.S. Congress, state senators, state representatives, county clerk and recorder, county treasurer, sheriff, state’s attorney, regional

superintendent of schools, county board members, and judges.

Referenda will held in the Meridian School District, Village of Hillcrest, Leaf River Township, and New Milford Fire Protection District.

For anyone unable to register by Oct. 7, Illinois has grace period registration and voting from Oct. 8 through Nov. 4 at Huntley’s office at the Ogle County Courthouse, 105 S. Fifth St., Oregon.

A citizen who will be 18 years old by Nov. 4 may come to the clerk’s office and register or to update his or her address during that time.

At that time, the voter must cast a ballot that cannot be revoked at the polls on elections day.

Whether her federal pension will be included in her court-ordered repayment of $54 million to the city of Dixon will be discussed Sept. 29 in court. Photo by Alex Paschal

Absentee ballots available Ogle County Clerk Rebecca Huntley said Sept.22 that voters may now apply for absentee ballots for the Nov. 4 general election.

Voters may apply by mail or in person in Huntley’s office on the first floor of the Ogle County Courthouse on the corner of Washington

(Ill. 64) and Fourth (Ill. 2) Streets, Oregon.

Mail applications to Ogle County Clerk, P.O. Box 357, Oregon IL 61061.

Huntley said a voter in Illinois no longer needs a reason to vote absentee.

To vote by absentee ballot, a person must be a registered

voter For more information about the qualifications call Huntley’s office at 815-7321110.

The clerk’s office will have expanded hours for absentee voting on Saturday, Nov. 1 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m.

Volunteers busy planning 44th Autumn on Parade Oregon hosts annual event Oct. 4 & 5

By Vinde Wells Editor Volunteer organizers have been busy planning the 44th annual Autumn on Parade festival, slated for Oct. 4-5, in Oregon.

An “Autumn of Superheroes” is the theme for this year’s event.

“In honor of this year’s theme, entertainers on Saturday on the courthouse square will include Wonder Woman and Captain America,” said festival president Marseyne Snow.

“We’ll also have Spiderman doing his acrobatics and Cat Woman will be painting faces.”

Back again this year is a post parade show by the South Shore Drill Team on Sunday, following the Harvest Time Parade.

“South Shore is always a such a crowd favorite that we decided last year to have them stay a bit longer and do

a show after the parade was over,” said Snow. “People really liked that so we’re doing the post parade show again on Jefferson Street in front of the Oregon library.”

Snow said this year’s parade, held on Sunday at 1 p.m., is shaping up to be

another good one.

“In addition to the South Shore Drill Team and the Jesse White Tumblers we have several high school marching bands and novelty entries like a rocket cycle, stilt walkers, and many other entries,” Snow said.

Antique tractors and vintage vehicles, youth groups, and other commercial entries will also be in the parade.

True to its roots in 1970, the heart of the festival remains the Farmers’ Market and Craft Show that features

booths that offer a variety of arts and crafts ranging from handmade wood items to homemade baked breads.

Through cooperation with Ogle County and city officials, booths are located on the historic courthouse lawn and on surrounding city streets, on both days.

New to this year’s festival is a “Boot Camp Challenge Obstacle Course” operated

by Kid Again Inflatable Fun Shows, in the AOP Fun Zone.

“The kids should have a lot of fun with that,” Snow said.

A “Volcano Adventureland” and “‘Lil Builders Toddler Zone” inflatables and a Spiderman bouncy house will also be offered in the Fun Zone along with balloon artistry, and cotton candy. Activities will be offered on Saturday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Wristbands are needed for entry to Fun Zone activities and cost $5 prior to the festival weekend and $8 during the festival. Advance sales are available now at the Nash Recreation Center in Oregon.

The Oregon Park District will be providing volunteers

for the Fun Zone ticket booth this year and has also created a special Autumn on Parade photo backdrop where kids, and adults, can pose for a photo to remember their visit to the festival for years to come.

The Olde English Faire will be sure to delight visitors at the Stronghold Center on both days. An admission is charged for this event.

Other Autumn on Parade events include: the Oregon Lions Club’s car, truck and motorcycle show on Saturday at Oregon Park East; the antique tractor show, also on Saturday at Oregon Park East; and tours of the Chana School. The Ogle County Historical Society will also be offering tours of the Nash Museum at the corner of Franklin and Sixth Streets on Saturday.

Visitors can help fund the festival by adopting a duck for the annual Duck Dash or by buying a 50/50 raffle ticket at the festival’s information tent.

Controlled burns help the Nachusa Grasslands thrive From A1 controlled burns. If the fire department is called it is embarrassing.”

The grasslands has equipment to burn the prairie and the volunteers have been trained in safe burning practices.

This includes setting up fire stops to keep the fire contained.

“We also do not burn on windy days,” Crowe said.

One large change heading to the grasslands in the future is a buffalo herd.

“Buffalo will help bring back the diverse plants and wildlife in the prairie,” said Crowe. “Without buffalo you lose diversity. They help create layers of plant life.”

When the buffalo trample the ground they create Nick Head, MA

patches of land with different heights, Crowe said. This allows smaller plants to grow where before they may have been crowded out. Some birds prefer the diverse plant life.

As the group transitioned from the prairie they were greeted with a savanna.

A savanna has large trees growing on the land where on a prairie there are typically no large trees.

“This savanna was bare ground when we started,” said Crowe. “We have been spreading seeds and now 100 species are growing on this hill.”

Like the prairie, controlled burns control the invasive species. Evidence of burning was seen with some charred tree trunks.

“This savanna has oak trees

which are resistant to fires,” Crowe said. “The burning stays low in the underbrush.”

When the group finished exploring East Heinkle Hill, they were brought back to the

entrance of the grasslands.

East Heinkle Hill is a 200-acre section of the 3,100 acres that make up the grasslands.

Autumn on the Prairie had

a variety of hikes and tours available for visitors to the grasslands.

Each tour focused on different features within Nachusa Grasslands.

The grasslands in open to the public and is located between Dixon, Oregon and Franklin Grove on Lowden Road just south of Flagg Road.

FIRE SAFETY TIPS Every year fires kill more people in the United States than all natural disasters combined. Tragically, many of these deaths and injuries could have been prevented with safety precautions. Protect yourself and your family from harm by taking these simple measures: • • • • • • • • • •

Install smoke alarms outside sleeping areas and on each floor of your home and test them regularly.

Keep fire extinguishers near places prone to fires, like stoves and fireplaces, and know how to use them.

Eliminate electrical hazards, like overloaded outlets and frayed electrical cords.

Have chimneys professionally inspected and cleaned each year.

Use ashtrays to extinguish cigarettes and don’t smoke in bed.

Take extra care around fireplaces and space heaters.

Store flammable liquids in labeled metal containers away from heat sources Be careful when cooking, turning pot handles inward and unplugging appliances when not in use.

Store matches, lighters and flammable materials out of children’s reach.

Plan an escape route, with two ways to get out of every room in your home, and practice it often with your family.

Navy officer surprised by motorcycle parade Rick Knutson returned home from a tour in Afghanistan

By Jermaine Pigee Sauk Valley Media As Rick Knutson and his wife pulled into Dixon, he wondered why a bunch of motorcycles were lined up at a gas station. “It was 9:30 p.m. on a Monday night,� he said. “I didn’t know what was going on.�

But as he and Natasha drove a little closer, he saw some familiar faces. “We pulled in and I was like ‘I know all the people on the motorcycles,’� said Knutson, a Navy officer. “It was awesome, and it was cool to see everyone.�

Knutson returned home from Afghanistan to a surprise parade and a welcome-home party. He also held Annalise, his four-month-old daughter, for the first time. “I’ve been able to see her on FaceTime,� Knutson said. “Everyone said she looks like me, and I guess she does.�

Patriot Guard Riders waiting at the Marathon station escorted him through Dixon and into Polo, where the parade was held along Mason Street.

He and his wife, Natasha, 28, drove to Polo in a white SUV with “Honk, A Soldier’s Home� in the back window.

All along the way, people complied.

A couple of military veterans even stopped to salute Knutson.

Gas stations in Polo showed their support by displaying welcome-home messages on their marquees.

Polo police and fire officials escorted him to Jeff’s Refs, 113 E. Mason St., for the party. About 50 people were in attendance. “I jumped in the back of the Polo fire truck and I rode into town,� said Knutson, 34. “I felt like a five-yearold kid riding in the fire truck.�

Knutson, a 1998 graduate of Polo High School, attended Naval basic training in Mississippi in January before going to Afghanistan in April, where he was a lieutenant junior grade in a mobile construction battalion.

This was his first and only tour of duty in Afghanistan. “He has been in the Navy for 16 years,� Natasha said. “He went to the Navy right out of high school.�

Knutson is not the only person in his family who served in the military.

His brother Brett, 36, was a captain in the Army; he returned from Afghanistan in February 2013.

Brother Kenny, 30, was a pharmacist technician in the Army. “He did five years of active duty and got out,� Rick said. “He was never deployed (to Afghanistan).�

Knutson has signed his discharge papers and once his leave ends in October, his service is over. He’ll work at the Exelon Nuclear Plant in Byron as a mechanical engineer.

Knutson said he is glad to be home. “It makes you appreciate what you have here a lot more,� he said. “It’s a different world, a different culture and a different way of living. Coming back to what you are used to is a pretty cool thing.�

October also is when he and Natasha will celebrate their second anniversary. “We have been planning to see him, and I was ready,� she said. “I was nervous because we didn’t know he was coming. I knew a month ago he was shipping out, but I didn’t know exactly when.�

Don Wolf, a Korean War veteran, organized the event. He said the city of Polo has not been welcoming its servicemen and women home, and he wants to change that.

“When I came home from the service in 1957, people never knew about it,� Wolf said. “I thought it was time to start recognizing soldiers who come home.�

Trinity Lutheran Church, Mt. Morris, will host the 2014 Ogle County CROP Hunger Walk on Sunday, Oct. 12.

Rain or shine, the walk begins at 2 p.m.; registration is at 1:30 p.m.

Walkers from 15 Ogle County churches and several groups will step off from Trinity to end hunger - one step at a time.

Amanda Cowen is chairperson for this year’s walk.

In the last 20 years, CROP Hunger Walks have raised more than $294 million to help people struggling to feed their families - both around the world and within our neighborhoods.

Donations can make an amazing difference.

For example, $24 buys a one-year supply of Vitalita nutrition packets for 20 children; this nutritional supplement promotes healthy development and prevents children from lifelong health problems. $50 can enable a woman

to attend literacy classes and change her life forever. $50 also provides seeds a tools to help a family grow their own healthy food to eat and sell at market. $110 can provide emergency food supplies for a family of five’s needs for a month. $140 can give a struggling farm family a new source of income: a pair of pigs.

A piglet from each litter is then given to another family in need.

Walkers and donations are needed to make Ogle County CROP WALK 2014 a success.

Walk as an individual or put together a team of walkers.

Donation envelopes (available at Trinity or other participating churches) are required for all - individuals and teams.

Donations to the Crop Walk may be made on a per mile basis or may be donated as a lump sum.

Route options are from 1 to 5 miles throughout the Village of Mt. Morris.

Walkers will receive a 2014

Ogle County CROP Walk T-Shirt. Trinity Lutheran will serve a light meal for all walkers at the conclusion of the walk.

To pre-register to walk, create a team, or participate by donation, Google “2014 Ogle County Crop Walk” or contact Cowen at 815-734-6862 or Cowen313@comcast.net.

Crop Walk is neighbors walking together to take a stand against hunger in our world.

Yes, this Walk will have an impact globally, and it also assists locally to help people struggling to feed their families.

Twenty-five percent of the monies raised will be split between five Ogle County food pantries/banks: Mt. Morris Loaves and Fish, Ogle County Lifeline, Oregon, the Stillman Valley Bread of Life, Polo Lifeline, and the New Life Community Center, Forreston. The balance of the monies go to world hunger relief through Church World Service.

Hawks win Salley Wessels Invitational at Sunset Oregon tops 11 other teams to take the title

By Andy Colbert Reporter For the second time this season, Oregon boys golf team won a tournament.

The Hawks defeated 11 other teams on Sept. 20 to win the Salley Wessels Invitational at the Sunset Golf Course in Mt. Morris.

Led by top five finishes from Mitchell Nehrkorn with a 79 and Taylor Brubaker with an 80, Oregon edged Byron 328 to 331.

Dennis Reedy of Byron was medalist on the par-72 course with a 76, as the final three holes were played in the rain.

“We’re pretty balanced,” Oregon coach Jim Spratt said. “We have four golfers between a 40.6 and 42.6 scoring average and Tyler Black is at 44.”

Sophomore Matt Myers chipped in an 83 just missing out on a 10th place medal.

Carson Buck, who Spratt calls the team’s steadiest golfer, long with Nehrkorn, added an 86. Black (89) and Dominic Marchetti (91) had nonscoring rounds.

“We can score one through six,” Spratt said. “Dominic is doing a good job at No. 6, but Kyle Lundquist and Zach Stromberg are pushing him.”

Spratt has been especially pleased with the progress shown by Brubaker, the No. 3 behind Nehrkorn and Buck.

“Taylor’s really been

coming on. We’ll need that come regional time,” Spratt said. “Overall, Mitchell has the potential to be our best golfer, but can be up and down, just like Phil Mickelson.”

Oregon closes out the regular season with the BNC meet at Timber Point next Thursday. Byron is undefeated in conference duals and is the only team Oregon (6-1) has lost to.

Those two schools, along

with Rockford Christian, which finished third in the Salley Wessels with a total of 345, are in the same regional.

In a real blow, the IHSA has also sent 1A power North Shore Country Day to the Byron regional.

“Oh my God. Why’d they ship North Shore to Byron?” said an incredulous Spratt.

“What a silly thing. That’s four quality teams going for three spots.”

Forreston took seventh with

a 390, led by an impressive 83 from sophomore Bryan Edler.

Other scores ranged from 98 to 113.

The Cardinals are at 7-2 in conference play with losses to league favorite Stockton and also to Pecatonica.

Brothers Markus and Bryan Edler have been the top golfers for Forreston with Nathan Schneidmerman a strong No. 3.

“The top three kids have separated themselves from the

others. We still need to find that fourth score,” Forreston coach Matt Handley said.

On Oct. 2, the Cardinals will compete in the NUIC tournament at Park Hills in Freeport.

“We’re a little inexperienced, but should be right in the mix,” Handley said.

Handley likes his team’s chances to advance out of the regional at Lake Carroll the following week. The

regional will be a repeat of the conference meet, as the exact same teams will be present at both.

“We caught a break going there. Byron’s stacked,” Handley said.

Last year, Forreston was assigned to the other regional and finished fourth behind Byron, Oregon and Rockford Christian, one spot away from advancing. Marcus Edler did advance to the sectional as an individual.

Lady Hawks serve and hit their way past Byron

By Andy Colbert Reporter The Oregon volleyball team is hard enough to beat with Delaney Mahoney setting up Emy Wright for kills. Throw in some impressive serving by Alana Leamanczyk and Byron faded down the stretch in a 25-22, 25-12 BNC loss Tuesday night.

In the second game, Leamanczyk had three aces and the Mahoney-Wright combo drove the Tigers batty trying to defend the net.

“The setter (Mahoney) was deceptive,” Byron coach Aimee Dach said. “Wright (11 kills) is quick-swinging. We weren’t able to close of the blocks.”

It wasn’t just Wright causing all the problems for Byron (14-5, 2-3). Whitney Long added six kills and three blocks. Mahoney had 24 assists. “(Mahoney) has a good front line to set to,” Dach said.

In the first game, Byron took a 6-1 lead and Oregon (11-4-2, 5-1) coach Faith Watson called timeout.

“We needed to slow it down and work at our pace, not theirs,” Watson said.

That strategy worked, as the Lady Hawks slowly chipped away at the lead. A Byron service error cut the momentum and Wright and Long kills cut the lead to 7-6.

“Volleyball is a game of momentum and we lost it,” Dach said.

Oregon managed to tie the game a couple times, but it wasn’t until an error by Byron at 20-20 that the Lady Hawks could take possession of the lead. Long then had a block and a kill for a 23-20 lead.

“I’m proud of the girls for not giving up when we didn’t have the lead,” Watson said.

“Before, we may have given up and not stayed in the game mentally.”

Another Tiger miscue and a Mahoney joust tip closed the game out.

“Unforced errors started coming our way

“Not only were her serves consistent, but we scored points off of them,” Watson said.

Sommer Rhea made three points midway through the game, giving Oregon a 14-8 lead.

An impressive kill by Seiler gave Byron a point, but two straight returning errors cut any chance the Tigers had of getting back in the game.

“We have lots of different weapons,” Watson said. “There is also great leadership, deeper than he seniors. It goes down to our three sophomores.”

The two biggest weapons, Mahoney and Wright, made it an early night with a couple of set-up kills at the end of game two for the 25-12 win.

“I think that long run in the first game carried over to the second game,” Watson said. “I really felt like our girls were in control of the second game.”

The Lady Hawks host BNC newcomer Dixon Thursday, before traveling to Oswego East for a tournament on Saturday.

In conference action, both Oregon and Rockford Lutheran are at the top with one loss each. After losing to the Lady Crusaders earlier, Oregon looks forward to a rematch at the Blackhawk Center on Oct. 14. That game could decide the BNC west division.

and it carried over into the second game,” Dach said. “We lost our fire after the first game.”

Outside hitter Brooklyn Seiler tried to keep Byron in the game with an occasional kill, but she was no match for all of Oregon’s weapons.

“It’s really nice having two strong attackers at the same time,” Watson said. “The opponent doesn’t know where we’re going.”

“The conference is up in the air,” Watson In the second game, Oregon broke a 3-3 tie and took an 8-3 advantage on Wright’s net said. “I’m really happy with our effort in practice.” play and Lemanczyk’s serves.

Hawks fall to Dukes 40-15

in first match up in 72 years

By Andy Colbert Sports Reporter Normally, one against seven isn’t a fair competition.

But, when your one is quarterback JD Gieson, a different set of rules apply.

In the first half of a Big Northern football game between Dixon and Oregon, seven different Hawk backs combined for 120 yards rushing on 27 carries. Gieson outgained them all with 131 yards on 11 rushes, including three touchdowns.

Gieson added a 34-yard touchdown run early in the third quarter and the Dukes went on to a 40-15 win in the first meeting between the two schools in 72 years.

“It doesn’t matter what

play is called,” Dixon coach Dave Smith said. “He’ll make it work. It was all about him taking his team and leading them to a win.”

For good measure, Gieson tacked on a 21-yard touchdown pass to Tyler LeBlanc midway through the third quarter for a 34-8 Duke lead.

“On our side of the ball, anyone on our offense can make plays,” Gieson said.

“That’s makes it difficult for the other team’s defensive coordinator. The toughest question for me is who to get the ball to. They were all open.”

While Gieson and company were running wild in the second half, Oregon was handicapped by not having

a quarterback. Starter Jerrick Orsted took a hit to the head at the end of the first half and was ruled out of action in the second half by trainer John Cain.

Back-up Caid Chenoweth suffered a concussion in the sophomore game and was taken to the hospital and may be out for the year.

Maverik Good, a running back, was called on to finish the game as an emergency fill-in.

“It’s scary how thin we are in some spots,” Oregon coach John Bothe said. “It really came to a head tonight.

There are a lot of injuries in the sophomore class.”

Teams raced at Skare Park

Injuries hurt Hawks at Dixon From B1 kick off and drove 63 yards in nine plays for a 6-0 lead, on a Gieson 6-yard run.

After being forced to punt, the Hawks soon caught a break when the ball was snapped over Gieson’s head into the end zone for a safety.

Oregon then proceeded to put together a 13-play drive, the key play a 16-yard run up the middle by John Ghibellini, that stalled at the Duke 34-yard line On Dixon’s first play, it was Gieson sprinting untouched around left end for a 66-yard touchdown and 12-2 lead.

However, another Duke mistake kept Oregon in the game.

On the ensuing possession, Brayton Finch was roughed up while punting, giving the Hawks a first down at midfield. On the next play, Orsted completed his only pass out of seven attempts, a 29-yarder to Chris Jordan.

An open field tackle by Matt Coffey saved a touchdown, but Hawk fullback Garrett Rude would score four plays

later on a 4-yard run, cutting the deficit to 12-8.

“We let them back in on that penalty,” Smith said. “We got to stop those mistakes and penalties. A Bothe-coached team is so fundamentally sound, they’ll make you pay. We needed a game like this where we got punched back in the mouth.”

Though Oregon controlled the clock in the first half, the Dukes used its big-play capability to advance the lead to 20-8. Cody Mighell and Gieson had consecutive 21yard gains, setting up an 11yard touchdown by Giesen to close out the half.

“If we could have ran the clock out and kept the game at 12-8, it would have given us an edge going into the second half,” Bothe said.

The most exciting play of the game was an 85-yard punt return by Coffey in the second half. Coffey made an over-the-head catch of a booming Finch punt and left would-be Hawk tacklers in the his wake on his run to paydirt.

“That return was the gamebreaker,” Smith said. “Both

Gieson and Coffey have been on varsity since they were sophomores and it was tough for them. They took a lot of shots, but it started to come around their junior year. All of these 12 seniors, I love them.”

Rude scored Oregon’s other touchdown late in the fourth quarter on a 5-yard run, following a 56-yard drive. Finch had a 28-yard run to set up the score. Skylar Short, who had a couple nice runs earlier, kicked the extra point.

“Dixon had great skill kids that were hard to keep up with,” Bothe said.

It was Dixon’s first ever BNC win in football, after being a charter member of the NCIC from 1939 until it folded a few years ago.

Oregon (2-2, 1-1) returns to Landers-Loomis Field this Friday for a homecoming game with undefeated Rockford Lutheran, currently ranked No. 2 in class 4A. It is a start of a 3-game home stand with Byron and Winnebago to follow.

And, from what I hear this past week was the first decent weather we’ve had for a game.

That may have had something to do with the

how both teams would match up.

The place was packed early, prompting John Bothe to comment that he had never seen such a large crowd at a sophomore contest.

Bringing Dixon into the BNC was not by unanimous accord by everyone within the Oregon coaching community.

There is still some contention

about competing against a substantially larger (783 to 467 enrollment) school.

As a fan, I love having them in the conference.

The town of Dixon and the support they show for high school sports will be a tremendous asset to the BNC. There was excitement in the air at their packed stadium on Friday.

Compared to trips to places like RichmondBurton, Johnsburg and Clifton Central, the 16-mile drive down Highway 2 was a snap. With Ace Hardware closing, we could even time our hardware purchases with trips to Dixon for sporting events.

As a football coach, I’m not so sure how I would feel.

Years ago, it would have been unfathomable for Dixon and Oregon to compete in football.

On Friday, it was apparent that the Dukes had better athletes and more speed, perhaps a refection of a bigger 4A school versus a team from the lower enrollment end of 3A. One thing is certain – Dixon is on the upswing after a few down years.

Rockford Lutheran has separated itself from everyone else in the conference, even Stillman Valley and Winnebago, who are both down from last year.

The Crusaders appear headed to an unbeaten record and

another long 4A playoff run.

Following a 40-0 loss to Oregon, Rock Falls’ coach Scott Berge announced he would resign at the end of the year. Probably just as well based upon a quote from him on why his team refused to punt deep in their own territory.

He said the kids didn’t want to, so he went along with it. If you’re the head coach, you need to be in charge, not the kids.

On to Forreston and Polo and the exciting ride both are on.

If the 4-0 Marcos beat Freeport Aquin this week, Polo should be a lock for the NUIC Upstate title. This is one explosive team with speed galore and one looking to gain respect from any remaining naysayers.

I look forward heading to Polo this Friday and seeing the renaissance of the community’s support for football. Polo has always been a football town through the Dwight Sellers, Wade Winekauf and Ted Alston eras.

My favorite year would have to be the ’83 team that had the misfortune of facing powerhouse Woodstock Marian in the 2A semifinals.

Talk about a tough draw.

If Le-Win can beat EPC (2A) this week, it will be No. 1 against No. 2 in 1A the following week between

Andy Colbert

Le-Win and Forreston. If LeWin loses to EPC, Forreston will likely take over the No. 1 ranking.

Another factor in all of this is that Polo travels to EPC the same night as the Le-WinForreston game. Depending on how these games play out, we’ll have a better idea of the potential favorite for a 1A state title, especially since three of the last four state champs in 1A came from the NUIC. My dream scenario would be for the IHSA to go to 16-team brackets, like they did in 2012, and Polo and Forreston ended up meeting in the semifinals for a trip downstate.

My early choice for a state title is Forreston.

Astrograph Make things happen Thursday, September 25, 2014 This year will be a dynamic one if you are prepared to take on new challenges. Your talents will go to waste if you are too casual in presenting what you have to offer. Strive to get ahead by honing your skills and mastering the arts of promotion and networking.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23) -You have the ability to influence others to do things your way.

Once you have determined what you need, initiate a discussion with people in a position to help you out.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 22) -- You will waste time if you are bouncing back and forth between different tasks.

Formulate a concrete plan and cross off each step as you move along. Organization will lead to success.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23-Dec. 21) -- An unusual pathway will reveal itself via a new acquaintance. You will reap the benefits from something you’ve been working on for a long time. Minor health issues will cause a setback.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19) -- There will be tension in

your personal relationships.

Rather than try to influence those around you, let them do their own thing. Occupy yourself with a personal project instead.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 19) -- A partnership with someone you admire will produce lucrative results. Be ready to act when the opportunity arises. Engage in projects that you can do with someone you love. Romance looks promising.

PISCES (Feb. 20-March 20) -- Practical matters will keep you busy. Save yourself some anguish by clearing up health or legal issues as soon as they crop up. A renovation venture will bring favorable results.

ARIES (March 21-April 19) -- If you feel something needs to be said, speak up. Your frankness may catch a colleague off-guard, but most people will admire your honesty.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20) -- Be optimistic, and leave the past behind. Focus on the positive people and activities in your life, and reject negative thoughts and people who bring you down.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20) -Take a pleasure trip. Unfamiliar surroundings will spark your creative imagination and influence your way of thinking.

A novel direction appears to be possible. Embrace new beginnings.

CANCER (June 21-July 22) -- Don’t rush into a delicate situation. Remain in control and try to find an arrangement that will be agreeable and fair to everyone concerned. Your candor will be appreciated.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22) -- You’ll be distressed about business deals, financial issues or health matters. Don’t confide in a close friend when going to an experienced source for advice is what’s required.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22) -If you investigate an interesting career possibility, you could find a way to instigate some forward motion. It’s up to you to make things happen.
