 Wednesday, March 2, 20162 Dayton Review

eterson’s galore at SwedishSupper in Boxholm. . .

This is a column written by Glenn Schreiberin December of 2003 about the locally famous SwedishSupper in Boxholm.  Getting a ticket to the Swedish Supper at TrinityLutheran Church in Boxholm is akin to getting a ticketat Lambeau Field to see the Green Bay Packers. It’s justabout impossible to get a ticket unless you are a “seasonticketholder.”  Trinity Lutheran at Boxholm limits tickets soldto 500 and the event is a sellout every year, just like aPackers’ game. You have to just about know somebodyto get a ticket to the Boxholm Swedish Supper.  That’s because people who attend this event al-ways come back. As you are reading this, the event couldvery well be a sellout again next year. Well, there may

be a little turnover, but not much. Ticketholders probablypass them on to relatives when they are ready to stop at-tending.  The Swedish Supper is a fabulous event. It isvery well organized, it offers superb Swedish food, andit’s a great bargain! The price is just $10, and you won’tfind a deal like that anywhere else in our area.

I went to an authentic Swedish Supper in theonth of December at Becker’s Fine Foods in Pocahon-

tas about 10 years ago. Carol Becker, the owner, was agreat cook and I would say her meal was comparable towhat Boxholm has. But 10 years ago her price was $12and her small restaurant couldn’t serve anywhere near thepeople that Trinity Lutheran serves in Boxholm. It wouldalso be fair to say that Trinity Lutheran produces much

ore food quantity.

  Aside from the great food and décor, I enjoyseeing all the people that gather for this event. Rose Hall,Boone, was there with a group. Rose was a former teach-er and coach in Dayton in the 1950s.  Dick Liljegren walks by my table and says,“You have something missing from your plate.” I haveto plead guilty for not taking any lutefisk. I tried the dishlast year and it just isn’t for me. But I like all the otherSwedish dishes.  Dora Hendrickson, Dayton, introduced me tothe Swedish Supper last year. We sat with Allen andBonnie Croonquist, Moorland, and Dora’s cousin MarianHendrickson, Fort Dodge. They are all members of theFirst Covenant Church, Fort Dodge.

For many years this Fort Dodge church had anannual Swedish Supper, serving about 650 according

to Bonnie. But it’s a lot of work and commitment andthe Fort Dodge church discontinued the Swedish Supperany years ago. Dora pointed out that people of all na-

tionalities enjoy the Swedish Supper, including the Ger-ans.

  At the next table I spotted David and VelmaKling, Harcourt. I turned and Alice Ozbun, Dayton, wasin a group that was sitting down.  There are three co-chairs that head this greatSwedish Supper. They are Linda Swanson, Boxholm;Norma Henricks, and Gwen Scheetz. Donna Swaney,Boxholm, was explaining this to me.  Kenny Peterson, Boxholm, the “other” KennyPeterson, assisted in seating people and waiting on tables.Ken related that many years ago his wife Pat was a teach-er at Dayton. And Gwen Peterson, Dayton, wife of Ken

Peterson, was also a teacher there.“I remember when Superintendent HaroldRankin addressed a PTO meeting,” said Ken. “He said,‘I see that we have the short Ken Peterson and the tallKen Peterson in attendance tonight.’”  Shorty Peterson, meanwhile, is the host at theSwedish Supper, greeting everyone at the end of the buf-fet line. The two Ken Petersons are not related, but the“short” Ken Peterson and Shorty Peterson are first cous-ins.  Ed Peterson, Harcourt, Webster County Board

ember, was another Peterson at this event. I met peoplefrom many, many area communities, mostly within a 50

ile-radius of Boxholm. But one couple arrived fromthe state of Virginia. They attended last year also. Theyare originally from this area and visited relatives over the

Thanksgiving holiday, extending their stay three moredays to attend the Swedish Supper.The Swedish Supper in Boxholm is that special,

and it has that type of following and loyalty.

Dayton Review

Mr. Kramer and the Dayton Review waited for about twodays before this list was given to them.  Once again, many out of county residents whowere designated as “bonafide” county residents didn’t livein Webster County.  And the six month rule wasn’t observed. Therewas clearly one subscription that was only a month old andwas on this list.  Mr. Kramer wrote a letter and announced thesefindings, also citing the fact that the lists submitted by the

Leader were not notarized and affidavits weren’t provided.The Webster County Supervisors considered the

matter. On Tuesday of last week it was announced thatthe board would not reconsider their vote on the officialcounty newspaper designation for Webster County.  Mr. Kramer, in his discussions with the supervi-sors and county attorney’s office, explained why the mattershould be reconsidered. There were errors by all parties,even the Fort Dodge Messenger. So the matter needed tobe reconsidered. But one central fact remained: the Re-view can prove its subscription number which is higher.  On Friday of last week Mr. Kramer filed an ap-peal with the District Court. It is not known when the courtwill review the situation.

“The Good and The Bad” 

  Why do we sometimes think that our lives areworse than others that are around us? Instead, we need

to be thankful for all the good things in our lives and notsimply take them for granted as we often do.There are many people in this world whose lives

are much harder, people who are continually hungry, andwhen I think of that it makes me feel like I greedy.

If we would make a comparison of what wehave in our lives in comparison to what many others haveit makes me realize just how blessed I am. When thishappens, do we pray for those less fortunate that us, or dowe simply take it for granted?

It is time to examine our lives and if we find weare feeling sorry for ourselves We need to ask our Lord tohelp us remember there are many in our small communitythat are hurting and need our prayers.

Count our blessings and then share some of ourblessings with others.

People to peopleand room to readWorld change starts witheducated children...

By: Olivia Hanson  My mission in my fundraising is to raise moneyfor peace through understanding. I believe that education

and books can help to end poverty and heal the world.I am raising money to go on a trip with People

to People Ambassador Programs to help the founder,President Dwight D. Eisenhower further his message.

On September 11, 1956 Eisenhower foundedPeople to People Student Ambassador Programs becauseof his strong belief in peace that “peaceful relations be-tween nations requires understanding and mutual respectbetween individuals.”

His vision for People to People was for citizensof every nation to achieve peace among all nations with-out government interference and through friendship be-tween citizens of other countries.

“People to People creates lasting cross-culturalconnections between everyday citizens around the worldto help them explore global issues, serve and enrich their

diverse communities, and become more effective leadersin creating a more peaceful world.”

One quote that explains my mission great is,“One child, one teacher, one book, one pen can changethe world. Read thousands of books and I will power

yself with knowledge. Pens and books are the weaponsthat defeat terrorism.” Malala Yousafzai.

This is the great reason behind wanting to raiseoney to go on this trip. But I do not want to raise money

just for my cause because that would be defeating mypurpose.

I want to help raise money to buy books andhelp educate the world. So 10% of my proceeds will goto Room to Read: World Change Starts with EducatedChildren. http://www.roomtoread.org/Partners Althoughtheir name be self-explanatory, Room to Read is an orga-

nization that builds libraries, constructs schools, publish-es books, and distributes books all in and for low income

countries throughout the world.They address three key areas essential to stu-

dents’ literacy development such as teacher training andsupport, reading materials, and learning spaces. “Chil-dren who have a strong foundation of literacy skills aremore likely to succeed throughout their education, breakthe cycle of poverty, and be better equipped to realizetheir full potential.”

My trip will cost around $7000 in the end butI’m trying to raise as much as possible in a reasonableamount of time with a portion of the proceeds going toRoom to Read. If I get over my goal, it will continue togo to Room to Read.

I intend to do this by accepting donations andselling key chain globes, wanderlust jars, travel kits andworld book marks and pencils to willing customers fordisplayed prices. I will display colorful boards displayingmy purpose/mission and goals to customers.  Please consider the world in the process of de-ciding whether to donate to my cause. I stand for fair-ness, justice, loyalty, kindness, passion, and compassion.Choose me and you are choosing someone that is readyto change the world and will do anything and everythingto achieve it as much as I can.

Someone ready to start a movement for peacethrough understanding. Someone that will stand up forthe voices that are unheard.

World Day of Prayer

Friday, March 4

  Women, men andchildren in more than 170countries and regions willcelebrate World Day of Prayer, Friday, March 4,

2016.This year, the wom-

en of the WDP Committeeof Cuba call us into wor-ship considering the words

“Receive children, receive me.” With these words asbackdrop, we are invited to learn about Cuba’s historyand rich cultural diversity.  The women of Cuba share their stories of tradi-tion, intergenerational wisdom and experiences of God’sprofound love and acceptance. Through the worship ser-vice, we learn of Jesus’ profound teaching of acceptanceas he states, “Let the little children come to me; do notstop them; for it is to such as these that the kingdom of God belongs” (Mk. 10:14–15).

As we listen to the women of Cuba throughout

the worship service, we are invited to wholly receive oth-ers, as Jesus calls us, into the kingdom of God.  This year’s service will be held on Friday,March 4-9:30 a.m. at Gowrie United Methodist Church.  World Day of Prayer is a worldwide ecumenicalmovement of Christian women of many traditions whocome together to observe a common day of prayer eachyear on the first Friday in March.

World Day of Prayer was founded on the ideathat prayer and action are inseparable in the service of God’s realm.

Services begin at sunrise in the Pacific andfollow the sun across the globe on the day of celebra-tion.

Each year a different country’s committee servesas writers of the World Day of Prayer worship service.

Dayton Review

  We soon learned that all schools in Jamaica,elementary through Jr. College students wore uniforms.They were different in each school. The lower gradeswere simple shirtwaist type dresses all same material,such as small checks and khaki trousers and shirts forboys. Higher grades may be more tailored for the girlstoo. You could tell, particularly by the little girls’ dress-es, if they were the younger ones in the family by howfaded those younger girls’ dresses were. On one of ourlater trips we were escorted down a forest road (impas-sible for vehicles) to see the “the waterfall that comes outof the trees”. Slow hiking Sara was bringing up the rearand suddenly was surrounded by about six children whoseemed to just appear out of those trees. Of course theywanted to talk to me and ask for “a dollah”. They were allfrom the same family, two of whom were both the sameage. “Twins?” I asked. “No. Same fatha, diff’rent moth-ahs.” I proceeded to guess which school grade they werein and one well past the age of attending (they start pre-school most places at four) had not yet gone. “Why?” –“No money.” School is not free in Jamaica. All, even thelittlest, are charged some sort of fee or tuition and mustprovide their pencils, work books, etc. That’s why themissionaries take supplies. One later year while volun-teering at a nearby pre-school-third grade school as wecame in a mother was “discussing” with the head teacherwhy her child could not attend. They were behind in theirpayments. We watched as she and the little one walkedaway. A sad situation. We could not offer to help thisONE child as we would have been inundated with pleasfrom other parents. Our best and fairest way to help waswith the supplies.  While at the Hope School we learned a lot aboutthe Jamaican people and some of their culture. They area friendly people and I don’t think it is just because theyare hoping for gifts or “tips”. They are always ready totell you about their country, their culture and their par-ticular part of the country. As I previously reported, it issuch a beautiful country with lush green vegetation, trees,ground growth, beautiful flowers, fruit trees, a numberof which were not familiar but the “apples” looked morelike pears. There was one that looked like a kiwi but wasdifferent inside, sweet, and with seeds resembling thoseof a watermelon. Pineapples and bananas are so good asthey are ripened and then picked for the local markets andhotels.  The first day we were there about four of us,having finished our current assignment, were in the caf-eteria waiting for others and getting acquainted with thechildren who were on lunch break. I noticed a little oneat the next table, chin cupped in hands, leaning on herelbows and staring with those big beautiful brown eyes.Pretty soon she came and stood in front of us, then mov-

ing directly in front of me, still staring. She pointed andbarely touched the “waddle” I have developed under mychin (some people get ‘em) and said, “What’s that?” Iexplained to her that some of us white skinned peoplehave more elasticity in their skin than people of her raceand I just call it “flab”. Longer story short –more gath-ered for the story and the word passed and for the restof the time I was “Grandma Flabby”. I didn’t mind. Itwas lovingly said and most often with hugs. In Jamaica,depending upon assumed age range, women are respect-fully called “Auntie” or “Grandma”. I felt a bit offendedthe first time I was so addressed in the airport by a Red

 Learning more about the people...

Cap who told another, referring to me, “Help Grandma”until I learned it was a term of respect.  The “experimental” about Hope school was notonly trying to bring advancements and the best educationpossible but to not exclude those who might not quite be“up to par”, physically or mentally. Each day we noticeda young man well beyond the age for that school whosename now escapes me. We learned he practically livedat the school, coming every day. He was a thalidomidebaby and born with no legs. He transported himself onthe few sidewalks, gravel paths and rough terrain bysitting on a board that was equipped with roller skatetype wheels and he could really zip around. He used hishands and arms to push himself on that contraption. Hewanted to help so accompanied the painters and got abrush and painted from the floor up as high as he couldreach.  We left tired but feeling good each day. Eachevening we all gathered for a time of reflection of ourday and a short devotion. We were on our own for dinnerso many took cabs into “town” and explored differentrestaurants while some opted for the meager menu at themotel. Others checked out the somewhat rustic bar at themotel. Some just went to their rooms to crash. We hadmore adventures but that’s for another week.

  The SV Jaguar basketball season came to an endin the final seconds of the district playoffs against Garner-Hayfield Tuesday, Feb. 23 at Humbolt.  Sophomore Caleb Jondle, coming off the benchfor the Jaguars, tied the game with 41 seconds remainingas he hit a clutch 3-pointer.

  James Betz made an offensive rebound for Gar-ner-Hayfield and made the putback in a somewhat contro-versial ending to the basketball game. The referees ruledthat the basket was made prior to the buzzer but some fansfelt that the basket was made after the buzzer sounded.  The winning basket gave the Cardinals a last sec-ond 69-67 victory over the Jaguars.  The SV Jaguars concluded a tremendous seasonwith an 18-4 record overall. The Cardinal record is now19-4. Two players came off the bench to score 21 pointsfor the Jaguars.

Sophomore Caleb Jondel has 14 points and madean incredible 4 of 5 shots from three range and Myles Da-vis added 7. He was 3-7 shooting in field goal attempts.Senior Conner Conrad finished his distinguished Jaguarcareer and season with a game high 27 points. He also had

Garner-Hayfield rallied and the score was 55-54 in favor of theJags after 3 quarters.

Area Clergy Groupplanning upcomingevent  Three members of the Area Clergy Group meton Wednesday, February 24th at noon in the DaytonUnited Methodist Church. This group is endeavoring towork together (all denominations and all churches withinour communities of Dayton, Harcourt, Lanyon, Otho,Boxholm, Lehigh, Pilot Mound, Callander, Burnside,and others), to bring the Light of Jesus Christ to thosewho might not otherwise hear. Our mission is to preach arelationship with Jesus Christ.

Several topics were discussed including a sum-mary of the magic show performed by Mike Prestby atthe high school following the basketball game. We allfelt that it was a good show, but was poorly promoted. Itwas decided that for future events, we will work harderat getting the word out so they will be better attended. Itwas also discussed that we need more clergy to meet withso that we can have more people to work on these typesof events and also be able to reach more area and moreyouth.  A youth event is being planned (tentatively) forApril 17th and will more than likely be held in Gowrie.While not all of the details are in yet, what you can counton is that there will be great music and lots of food. Weneed all the clergy in the area to come to the next meetingso that we can get this event planned and be able to assigntasks. It takes a community to serve a community.  The group also decided on a name change andwill from this point on be called the “Soul Patrol.” As wasstated in the first paragraph of this article, we are hereto share Jesus Christ with any and all who want to hearabout Him. Many clergy and many denominations are in-volved in this group and are all working towards the samegoal. If you would like to be involved, but haven’t yet,you can email me at [email protected]. Our nextmeeting will be held at the Emanuel Lutheran Church inDayton at noon. Bring your own lunch.

The Soul Patrol members also discussed upcom-ing shared services such as Harcourt Appreciation Day

on August 7th in the park. This event comes after a weekof Vacation Bible School. And the Thanksgiving serviceheld on the Tuesday before the holiday. The HarcourtMethodist Church will be hosting this event with PastorCraig Vote preaching.

“It Pays to Advertise!” 

 Medicaid Modernization  Over 85,866 provider contracts have been signed asof the end of January. This represents over 95% of allpossible provider contracts have been signed based on theIowa Medicaid Fee-For-Service network in the past 12months (out of 89,883)  All four major hospital systems have signed witha managed care organization (Genisis, Mercy, UIHC,UnityPoint)

An administrative law judge indicated Iowa’sMedicaid Modernization procurement process was“thoughtful and diligent.”

  Benefits under managed care do not change, butthe managed care organizations will provide over 80+value-added services Medicaid patients do not currentlyreceive.  Patients can switch to a different managed careorganization at any time for any reason between now andMay 17, 2016. After that date, patients can still switch forgood cause (e.g., provider not signed up with a MCO).There will also be an annual open enrollment period in thelate fall to choose a different managed care organizationor remain.  Between January 12 and February 4, Iowa Medicaidmember and provider-services hosted day-long roadshows in 11 cities across the state. Over 2,300 providershave attended or signed up to attend the training. Moretrainings will be held based on demand. 34,406 Medicaid

patients have actively selected an MCO as of 1-22-16.  Medicaid Modernization will create predictabilityand sustainability in the Medicaid budget. In FY 2017,Medicaid costs will increase $41 million even withmanaged care. Without it, costs would increase $151million.  Medicaid is the second largest program in stategovernment. Its growth threatens the state’s ability toprovide additional funding to schools. House Committee Passes Ban on the Sale of FetalTissue

On Tuesday, the House Human ResourceCommittee, which I serve on as Vice-Chair, passedHouse Study Bill 621. This bill prohibits a person fromknowingly acquiring, providing, receiving, transferring,or using a fetal body part in Iowa, regardless of whether

the acquisition is for value. This prohibits the sale ordonation of fetal tissue in Iowa. This prohibition doesnot apply to diagnostic or remedial tests, procedures, orobservations to determine the life or health of the fetus orthe pregnant woman.  It was an honor to welcome Mike Sherwood to theHouse Chambers this week. Mike is the Superintendentfor Webster City and Northeast Hamilton SchoolDistricts.

  This letter was written by Vernon Swanson,it was mailed to his parents during WWII while hewas serving in the Army.

Dearest Folks,  One guess who’s on V.M.I.’s ASTP All-Starbasketball team. Yep Vernon Swanson made it among500 guys who play a couple of times a week. Lieut. Ayresasked me to play with the outfit at practice Thursday oflast week. I’m going to start in a game with Washingtonand Lee University tomorrow night. Then we play twogems with Virginia Poly Tech sometime soon. Basket-ball sort of keeps me in shape - as if the calisthenics weget aren’t enough.  I had a very nice time last weekend - I sort ofplanned on staying around here after being notified mostof my pals were getting pickled (go on a drunk) Satur-day night. About 5:00 Sat. I want down to Mechem’s (Ihad been asked earlier in the week to come if I possiblecould) and Doc was in bed with an infection in his foot

so I’m glad I want. I had a swell steak supper and I tookDonny to the movies (as if I didn’t want to go). We gotback and we sat and talked until about 11:30 p.m., andsince it was raining, Mrs. Mechem drove me home to mylil ol’ barracks. Anyway I had a fine time, and I mean tosay I enjoy getting out like that.  Since the old gent in our Post Office here leftfor an operation, guess who is working there - Mrs.Mechem. So I stick my head in the window every morn-ing and say hello to her. Got her a coke at the PX thismorning and brought it to her. It’s funny in a way, isn’tit, how your paths cross?  By now I hope mother has gotten her birthdaypresent. And to make up for my present being late, I senttwo pictures - and you may keep both of them if you like,unless someone can argue you out of one of them.

  This coming Saturday night, to the day, at 9:20p.m. I will have been engaged to Audrey six wholemonths. Gosh, I never believed in long engagements ei-ther. But I’m happy and I believe she is - so we’re goingto wait to get married until I come home on my next fur-lough -- or hadn’t you heard.  Congrats to my brother David!! Life Scout -next Eagle. I remember, and still have, one of the fineletters Uncle John wrote me. He said he would give me$5 the day I got Eagle - so in memory of him, I’ll makethe same offer to you Sonnie - go to it!!  I started this letter just before taps last night andthis morning wrote a little bit in Trig. Class. Now I havea free hour and will put the finishing touches on it.  Received a very fine letter from Aunt Phamiethis morning and one from Audrey - so my morale is up

to par again. (from Audrey written Sat. Eve. 9:15 p.m.our 6th anniversary - yep engaged for six whole months.I feel sort of sad when I think it has to be such a lingtime before we can get married and settle down - thiswar has to end sometime -- and of course that is one ofmy big reasons for hoping it ends soon.) I picked up onedoughnut and a bottle of milk down at the P.X. and ammunching away on that.  Well I guess our orders for transfer are in now,and that permits me to legally sort of forget about mytedious studying. The two places mentioned were FortBragg, N. Carolina and Indian Gap, Pennsylvania. Bothare P.O.E.’s and replacement centers, so a lot of newthings lie ahead after we pull out of here. I’m going tohate to leave V.M.I. because it has so many advantagesthat certainly can’t be found in the typical Army location- and I enjoyed getting back and using my brains over thebooks for a while.  My grades show that I have done very well inevery one of my subjects - math, physics, and all - if myrecord here goes down on my Service Record, it may beworthwhile that I did put a little effort while I was here.But as I’ve said before, my breaks in this Army havebeen lacking to date and don’t expect them anymore.  I’ve had time to have good times while I’m herecatching up on some correspondence, living comfortableand enjoying some of the more colorful parts of military

Cadet V.E. Swanson continues toprepare for infantry

life. I’m sure glad I was sent here, but know that I’ll notbe lucky to get anything like it from now on  Mrs. Mechem told me that Gowrie Girls camein second, losing the finals - tough, but they are to be

congratulated for going as far as they did.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR DRINKING WATERElevated Fluoride Levels Detected in Dayton Municipal Water Supply  

This is an alert about your drinking water and a cosmetic dentalproblem that might affect children under nine years of age. At low levels,fluoride can help prevent cavities, but children drinking water containingmore than 2.0 milligrams per liter (mg/l) of fluoride may develop cosmeticdiscoloration of their permanent teeth (dental fluorosis). The drinkingwater provided by your public water system, DAYTON MUNICIPALWATER SUPPLY, has a fluoride concentration of 2.18 mg/l.

  Dental fluorosis in its moderate or severe forms, may result in a brownstaining and or pitting of the permanent teeth. This problem occurs onlyin developing teeth, before they erupt from the gums. Children under nineshould be provided with alternative sources of drinking water or water thathas been treated to remove the fluoride to avoid the possibility of stainingand pitting of their permanent teeth. You may also want to contact yourdentist about proper use by young children of f luoride-containing products.Older children and adults may safely drink the water.  Drinking water containing more than 4.0 mg/l of fluoride (the U.S.Environmental Protection Agency’s drinking water standard) can increaseyour risk of developing bone disease. Your drinking water does not containmore than 4.0 mg/l of fluoride, but we’re required to notify you when wediscover that the fluoride levels in your drinking water exceed 2.0 mg/lbecause of the cosmetic dental problem.  For more information, please call Dayton Municipal Water Supply at547-2711. Some home water treatment units are also available to removefluoride from drinking water. In Iowa, home water treatment units areregulated under 641-Chapter 14, with the water treatment unit registrationprogram administered by the Iowa Department of Public Health’senvironmental health division. In addition, you may call the NationalSanitation Foundation (NSF) International, at 1-877-867-3435.  Please share this information with all the other people who drink thiswater, especially those who may not have received this notice directly (forexample, people in apartments, nursing homes, schools, and businesses).You can do this by posting this notice in a public place or distributing copiesby hand or mail.  This notice is being sent to you by DAYTON MUNICIPAL WATERSUPPLY.PWSID#: 9425011 Date distributed 2-29-16

Dayton Review

Floor Action Intensifies On The Senate Floor   There was significant activity this week on theSenate floor as we spent considerable time discussing aplethora of bills in debate—roughly 40 bills on Tuesdayand Wednesday alone. This is quite a contrast from lastweek, considering the heavy load of subcommittee andcommittee work due to the first funnel deadline. Muchof this debate covered non-controversial bills passed outof committee prior to the first funnel.Topics of Interest from This Week’s Debate  One of the bills on Tuesday’s debate calendarwas Senate File 2198, which also was referred to as the‘Right To Try’ bill. This legislation would permit Io-

wans diagnosed with a terminal illness the opportunity touse medicines, in the research process, but have not beengranted approval from the United States Food and DrugAdministration. Legislation such as this can go a longway in providing terminally ill patients the opportunityto receive these breakthrough treatments, early enough todo some good.  Also, a $115.5 million supplemental appropria-tion to the state budget was up for debate on Wednesday.We all understand the importance of meeting our fundingobligations. However, the issue raised Wednesday wasbudgeting gimmicks being used to fund the supplementalappropriation.  Families are expected to spend less, or at leastnot more, than they take in. The state budget should bethe same. I voted against the supplemental because it is

funded by shifting money through different sources--thesame sort of practices that got us in trouble under ourformer governor.Medicaid Modernization Update  The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services(CMS) have approved the State of Iowa to proceed withMedicaid modernization on April 1, 2016. This results ina second delay in the transition, the first being from Janu-ary 1 to March 1.  The first delay was to allow Iowa Medicaidto meet certain criteria before full implementation, likedemonstrating the Managed Care Providers (MCO) hadenough network adequacy with doctors and hospitalslocated across the state. In a letter from CMS to MikkiStier, Iowa’s Medicaid Director, CMS says it has seensignificant improvement in Iowa in the past 60 days.

  Most Iowa Medicaid members have already re-ceived packets from a randomly assigned MCO, and oth-ers have changed to a different MCO, which better meetsthe member’s needs. Members also can continue to makechanges in their selection for any reason until June 16,2016, and after that for 'Good Cause', such as their pro-vider has not joined the MCO network.

Since Governor Branstad’s announcement aboutoving to managed care there have been more than 350

public meetings, trainings and listening sessions withembers, providers and stakeholders. Not all of these

were conducted solely by the Iowa Medicaid Enterprise(IME). A whole host of stakeholders were involved, suchas the Departments of Human Services, Public Health,Aging, Inspections and Appeals, Insurance Division, andOffice of the Long-Term Care Ombudsman.

  The reason for this transition, is Medicaidspending in Iowa has grown significantly from $2.6 bil-lion in FY07 to an estimated $5 billion plus in FY17. Bycontracting with managed care, some of the risk is borneby the MCO, and allows Iowa to budget a fixed num-ber, without fluctuations that would have large impactson Iowa’s budget. The other, and more important reasonis, despite the dramatic growth in spending, Medicaid

ember’s health outcomes have failed to improve. When

the average Medicaid patient has more than four chronicconditions, sees five different physicians, and sees sixdifferent prescribers, they have no continuity of care. Bygoing to a managed care model for its Medicaid program,Iowa is utilizing nationally-experienced companies tocoordinate care in a way that makes Medicaid membershealthier and fits individual needs.  The State has set up a website with all materi-als that have been distributed to members and providersit includes a frequently asked question section. It canbe found at https://dhs.iowa.gov/ime/about/initiatives/MedicaidModernization. Medicaid members or fam-ily members can also access the phone numbers below.

Webster CountyCASA Celebrates SocialWork Month

  Throughout the month of March, the WebsterCounty Court Appointed Special Advocate (CASA) pro-gram will join the National Association of Social Work-ers in celebrating Social Work Month.

This month is an opportunity to honor and thankthose who devote their lives to bettering the lives of oth-ers. Social workers strive to build a stronger communityfor all people, and CASA is a proud partner in the effortto secure a brighter future for children in the foster caresystem.  CASA programs across the state collaboratewith the Department of Human Services and other keyadvocates in the child welfare system to ensure that chil-dren who have been removed from their homes due toabuse or neglect are placed in safe, permanent homes asquickly as possible.

This year’s theme for Social Work Month –Forging Solutions out of Challenges – pays tribute to thecountless social workers who tackle some of the toughestproblems facing our communities. Social workers covera wide variety of areas, but Webster County CASA is es-pecially thankful to those who serve the most vulnerablechildren in our communities.  Foster youth are more likely than the generalpopulation to develop PTSD and experience homeless-ness after they age out of the system. They are less likelyto graduate high school or college. Together, social work-ers and CASA Advocates—trained community volun-teers appointed by a judge to represent the best interest of an abused or neglected child in court—are helping morechildren in foster care achieve better outcomes.

To learn more about Social Work Month visitsocialworkmonth.org.  To get involved or learn more about CASA inthis area, contact local Program Coordinator Crystal Eng-strom at 866-923-1088 or visit CASAIowa.org.

Webster County Selectedfor Substance Abuse

Prevention GrantTo reduce youth binge drinking and un-derage alcohol use...

  The Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH)has selected Webster County to participate in an $8.1million federal grant to reduce youth binge drinking andunderage alcohol use, and the problems associated withboth.

The Iowa Partnerships for Success (IPFS) Grantis funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Ser-vices Administration, Center for Substance Abuse Pre-vention.

Webster County was among 12 counties identi-fied by IDPH as “highest need” in regards to underage

alcohol use and youth binge drinking and funded througha Request for Proposal process.  According to Fort Dodge Police Chief, KevinDoty, “Webster County being selected for this SubstanceAbuse Grant is a good thing for the youth of WebsterCounty. Underage and binge drinking are issues thatneed to be addressed.

With education being a big component of thisgrant, instruction in our schools will be provided to at-tempt to address these issues with our youth. Educationwill give them the tools to use before they are presentedwith a situation where they will have to make a choiceabout their use of alcohol.

I think having a strong Social Host ordinance asan additional component of this grant helps send the mes-sage, if you are allowing this behavior by hosting a party,

you could end up in court. It is not ok for our youth todrink.

A Social Host ordinance also gives parents anout if their children ask them to host a party.” “If wesit by and say it will not happen here; it is a rite of pas-sage, we could have a tragic incident take place whereyoung people are hurt or killed and then it will be too late.What will you think when officers come to your home togive you the news that no parent or family member everwants to hear? To do nothing and not support this effortis failing our young people that look up to us for guid-ance. If we keep one of our young people from beinghurt or killed, I think the grant program will have been asuccess,” said Chief Doty, of the Fort Dodge Police De-partment.

“ Alcohol is the substance most frequently usedby youth in Iowa and across the nation,” said Julie Hib-ben, the IPFS Project Director. “Webster County’s par-ticipation will not only benefit its youth directly, but willalso help increase the health and safety of all county resi-dents.”  According to the 2013-2014 National Survey onDrug Use and Health, 6.40 percent of Iowans aged 12-17had consumed more than five drinks of alcohol in onesitting during the past month. This is significantly higherthan the national rate of 6.16 percent. In addition, 35.83percent of Iowans aged 12-17 felt that five or more drinksof alcohol once or twice a week was a great risk.

The risk perception rate for Iowans aged 12-17was 3.26 percent lower than the national rate of 39.09percent, suggesting that alcohol use is not deemed to be

as high of a risk by Iowans aged 12-17 as it is by otherAmericans of the same age group.
