Mosaics of steel mill, courthouse to be on display at Agricultural Museum in Hennepin
SHAW LOCAL NEWS NETWORK contact@shawmedia.com
John “Junior” Washington created an 8-foot-long mosaic of the J&L steel mill and Putnam County Courthouse using colored soybeans inserted in wire mesh.
Washington, a Putnam County deputy sheriff, worked at the steel mill as soon as it was built and was credited by J&L with nicknaming the mill “Big Blue.” Victor Sulmonetti displayed the mosaic in Vic’s Tap in Hennepin. Vic’s wife Emagene donated the mosaic to the Putnam County Historical Society after she retired. The Historical Society has refurbished the mosaic and mounted it for display at the Agricultural Museum, 501 Old Highway 26, where it can be seen between 11 a.m. and 2 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 11, during the Historical Society Open House in Hennepin.

Professor returns from Netherlands exchange program
Mangold spent 2 weeks in the Netherlands as part of study abroad program
By PEGGY SCHNEIDER IVCC Community Relations
Rick Mangold’s trip to Holland brought him insights into how other countries educate future leaders, but it also let him revisit his own country’s past.
The region he stayed in still carried reminders of the World War II conflict 85 years later. In a cemetery where men killed in the war are buried, Mangold found an uncle’s gravesite. He also toured a concentration camp.
“There’s a lot of history there – a lot of American history. It’s fascinating,” the Illinois Valley Community College psychology instructor said.
Everyone he met in the community and at the college was friendly. Once, while returning from a shopping expedition downtown, Mangold lost his way – until he saw a sign.
“It was a museum, and the sign said if you’re lost, come inside and find yourself,” he said.
Mangold did, and he found a warm welcome, a cup of coffee, a place to pass the time and a memory he treasures.
Mangold spent two weeks in the Netherlands as part of a professional
study abroad program through the Illinois Consortium for International Studies and Programs. He stayed with the college employee he’d hosted last fall, Judith DeKloe, and her family.
DeKloe is a retention coordinator
at Summa College, a vocational college in Eindhoven. The college also has several campuses in Holland, a country the size of Maryland.

“They call Rotterdam the shipping center, Amsterdam the air traffic center and Eindhoven the brain center –like our Silicon Valley,” Mangold said.
The college is privately funded and housed in the former headquarters of an enormous electronics corporation. Students attend for free.
“They really empower students to learn. They want students to leave with a job,” Mangold said.
“College is a playground to experiment in,” he said, remembering one student who had attained welding certificates but changed direction, returning to college to get a teaching degree so he could teach welding.
Students can enroll in classes such as pastry making, welding, automotive, art or fashion, plumbing, woodworking, public safety, technology and health care, learning skills in workshop labs from industry professionals. Students also can pursue an academic track to higher degrees.
Mangold was treated to a bakery operated by adults with Down syndrome – who are mentored by college faculty – and to a business incubator where a variety of businesses and artisans share space and services in a
10-story office building.
“They really want people to be successful,” he said.
When he met with college students, it felt like home because they were like college students anywhere, asking the same sort of questions. They wanted to know how old he was, and he challenged them to guess. The student who shaved a few years off “got a passing grade for the day,” he joked.
Students couldn’t wait to get IVCC T-shirts, something Mangold had brought to give away.
Mangold’s mental health training paid off when he got into the passenger seat facing narrow local roads. Lanes were unmarked and filled with fast-moving traffic and bicycles – and there were lots of roundabout intersections.
“Don’t go to Holland if you don’t like roundabouts,” he said. “They have double or triple roundabouts.”
Approaching those, Mangold said, he determinedly tuned out and “went into a happy place.” Roundabouts aside, his trip was a delightful and enriching experience, he said.
“Holland is a beautiful country with a rich past and a bright future,” Mangold said. “The cross-pollination of ideas and teaching techniques makes teaching an exciting discipline to work in.”

LAKE DEPUE PRO NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP BOAT RACES
Cousins Rayce Bosnich, Ethan Fox win 1st titles
By KEVIN CHLUM kchlum@shawmedia.com
DEPUE – When Rayce Bosnich pulled his boat up to the shores of Lake DePue on Friday, his father, Paul Bosnich III, was waiting for him.
Rayce Bosnich, 10, got a big high five and a bear hug from his dad before Bosnich III pulled his son out of the boat and tossed him into the lake.
Per tradition, a boat racer gets dumped into the lake after winning his first national title at the Lake DePue Pro National Championship Boat Races.
“It felt good,” said Rayce Bosnich, who won the K-Pro Runabout class. “I got soaked when he threw me in.”
It was a special moment for Bosnich III, who himself has won multiple national titles in his hometown. This year, however, Bosnich III isn’t racing after having shoulder surgery and instead is serving as crew chief for Prop Riders Racing.
“It’s unbelievable,” Bosnich III said about seeing his son win his first title in his second year of racing. “He drove a great race, got good starts and did what he needed to do. It’s one of those unbelievable feelings.
“It was a culmination of a dream for him and me. He’s grown up around this. This has been his life and he said, ‘Dad, I want to win one.’ I told him to go after it and he put his work in. He drove his butt off all three heats and did what he needed to do to win a championship.”
Rayce Bosnich finished second in the first heat after a back-and-forth battle with Shane Kimble. Bosnich pulled out the win in another tight race in the second heat and Kimble was disqualified for jumping the starting gun, putting Bosnich in a strong position entering the final heat.
Bosnich finished second in the last heat to lock up his title.
“I got second in the first heat, and I knew if Shane got first [in the second heat] he would have won, so I fought out there during the second heat to get first place,” Bosnich said. “I was told to take it easy in that last heat. Dad said, ‘If you finish third or above, you’re going to win.’ So I listened to him and took it easy.”
Bosnich III expects his son and Kimble to battle for years to come.
“In my opinion, and I may be biased, but it was one of the better
races all day,” Bosnich III said about K-Pro Runabout. “That’s what you want. You want the kids to be out there battling it out and they come in and they’re high fiving, hugging, smiling and talking about the race.
That’s what it’s about. Those guys battled it out side by side and trusted each other. During inspection, Josh Kimble, Shane’s dad, said, ‘You guys are going to be racing a lot against each other,’ and they will be. That’s what you want. You want good competition.”
The day got even better for Prop Riders Racing when Rayce Bosnich’s cousin, Ethan Fox, claimed his first national title immediately after Bosnich as he won the 175 Hydro.
“It’s been a long time,” said Fox, 21. “I’ve been racing since I was 12, so all this progress up until this moment, it means so much to me. What Paulie (Bosnich III) has done for me and what all these (crew) guys have done for me is what really means the most to me.”
Fox said lessons learned in the past helped him get that elusive title.
“It’s a lot of mechanics,” Fox said. “Last year I had a lot of issues with my carburetor. I ended up blowing up a drive shaft on the last heat. So really it
was just figuring out what to do, when to do it and how hard I should tighten some bolts.”
Bosnich III was happy to see his nephew win a title, too.
“We had a pretty good day,” Bosnich III said. “Last year, I think Ethan should have won 175. He was definitely the dominant boat all year last year and it kind of got away from him last year. He made some young mistakes. I wouldn’t say he was the favorite coming into today although he was really, really fast. There were four or five boats capable of winning. He put his head to it, had three great starts and drove three great heats. It takes a little bit of luck, but you have to be good to and he definitely put on a show today.”
Fox placed second in the first heat then came back to win the last two heats. The second heat had to be rerun due to an issue with the flags.
It was one of several delays in the second half of action, including boats flipping on the first two attempts of the first heat in C-Racing Hydro and two restarts of the first heat in the 500 Runabout.
“It’s nerve racking,” Fox said about the delays. “You have to get back into
it. It’s getting back into the nerves and getting into the right headspace is really the hardest part for me. It was like and hour and a half. In that time I’m slowing down then I have to get right back into it. It was hard, but it lit a fire under my butt when I heard that rerun happen because I felt real good about that lap.”
In the first half of the day, Jonathan Nilsen won the C-Service Runabout for the second year in a row, Brady Brinkman claimed the 125 Runabout, Bob Wartinger took the OSY-400 and Doug Hall three-peated in the 500 Hydro.
After the intermission, Justin Gibson won the C-Racing Hydro, which included a thrilling comeback win in the second heat, and Jason Sailer won the 500 Runabout.
Nilsen, Hall and Gibson added titles on Saturday as well.
Nilsen earned a repeat championship in C Racing Runabout, Hall won 700 Hydro and Gibson dethroned Nilsen in C Service Hydro.
Also Saturday, Jerry Davis Sr. won the 250 Runabout, Shane Kimble took home the win in K-Pro Hydro, Vincent Buskirk claimed 700 Runabout and Amy Nydahl won 350 Hydro.

By KEVIN CHLUM kchlum@shawmedia.com
MENDOTA – Baley Lehr “did everything good” Saturday during the first round of the Illinois Valley Men’s Golf Championship at Deer Park Golf Club.
Lehr shot a 6-under-par 64 to give himself a two-stroke lead entering Sunday’s final round.
“I putted good. Hit the ball good. When I missed greens, I got up and down,” Lehr said. “I just did everything well (Saturday).”
While everything didn’t go as well Sunday, Lehr led comfortably from start to finish, shooting 2-over par at Mendota Golf Club to win his fourth IV Men’s Golf title with a two-round score of 136. Lehr won three in a row from 2018-20.
“It feels good,” Lehr said. “It’s a relief because today was a lot tougher than yesterday, but I grinded through. I’m just glad I got through it on top.”
Lehr beat T.J. Templeton by two strokes.
“It’s been a long time (since I placed),” Templeton said. “It’s something a little different for me this year.”
After shooting a 71 in the opening round, Templeton said he had no thoughts of chasing down Lehr in the final round.
“When Baley Lehr is up six or seven strokes, you don’t catch Baley, so I was just wanting to play my own game and just go out there and make good swings and see what happens,” Templeton said.
Lehr shot an eagle on No. 3 and birdied No. 8 en route to an even par 35 on the front nine. He parred seven of his final nine holes with bogeys on Nos. 13-14.
“This course, for me, is a little trickier,” Lehr said. “It’s just hard to commit to shots a lot out here. I’m pretty used to Deer Park. I don’t play out here too often. It’s tougher to commit to shots and it was just more of a grind than it was yesterday.”
Lehr led by five or six strokes for most of the back nine but said the lead didn’t factor into how he played.
“Honestly, I wasn’t paying attention,” Lehr said. “I didn’t look at the scoreboard until before I putt on the last hole. I just tried to stick to my own game. The goal today was to shoot par or slightly better. I felt like out here that’d be good enough. I shot 2-over, but I grinded through it.”
While there wasn’t much drama about who would win, Templeton finished strong to tighten up the leader board.
Templeton birdied four of his final eight holes.
“It feels pretty good,” Templeton said. “I hit it good. I struggled in the middle of the round, but it feels good to finish the way that I did and make a few birdies down the stretch. We’ve been working hard at it. I’m glad to see it pay off.”
“Just keeping my cool (was key). That’s always been my struggle is keeping my cool. I thought about what I was doing, kept my head down and kept grinding and see what was going to happen. It was a nice finish for me.”
Templeton said putting was key to his closing surge.
“I’ve been working hard,” Templeton said. “My buddy Joe Cravatta, I play a lot of golf with him and he said, ‘Hey, if we’re going to work on putting, let’s work on putting.’ He’s helped me a ton. He had me doing all sorts of drills I’ve never done before. He’s helped me so much. I’m grateful for it because he got me all the way to second place.”
Defending champion Caleb Dzierzynski placed third at 140, while Josh Gass and Rick Krumscheid tied for fourth at 142.
“It’s nice to see I can be consistent and have a chance to win,” Dzierzynski said. “Obviously, I would have
liked to win, but to play in a field as strong as this and finish in the top three, I’m still pretty happy with the performance.”
Dzierzynski played in the final group with Lehr, Gass and Alex Blumenshine after shooting a 68 on Saturday. He was 2-over on Sunday.
“I played pretty good overall,” Dzierzynski said. “Today I made some mistakes more mentally. Picking the wrong club. I hit a couple out. But I scrapped and played pretty well. Baley played well. It was going to be a tough task to catch him today.”
Dzierzynski and Gass were tied for third going to No. 18. Dzierzynski parred the final hole while Gass double bogeyed to take third.
“I hit a driving iron off the tee and I got kind of caught up on the slope and had a pretty tough downhill wedge
shot,” Dzierzynski said. “I pushed it out, but my chipping was pretty good all day. I got it up and down. He had a tough up and down from just beyond the sand. It was nice to finish third, but he played pretty good today, too.”
Carter Fenza, Doug Pinter and Jon Prescott tied for sixth at 143, while Blumenshine and Mason Kimberley tied for ninth at 144.
Jacob Ursua and Jacob Armstrong tied for the A flight title with Armstrong winning in a playoff. Taylor Joyce won B flight by seven strokes with a 146 and Beau Fancher won C flight.
Fenza claimed the Junior (21 and under) title with a 143 to beat Ethan Hanaman and Drake Kaufman by three strokes.
Spark Larkin took the Senior class and Krumscheid won the Legends class.
