Osceola Farm & Home to rebuild after devastating fireBy AMY HANSEN OST news editor • ahan-sen@osceolaiowa.com

You can’t keep a good store down for too long.

After a fire destroyed the long-standing business Osce-ola Farm & Home Sunday, it seemed the questions on ev-erybody’s lips were, “What’s going to happen next? Are they going to rebuild?”

Osceola Farm & Home is owned by brothers Jeff and Patrick Edwards. The supply store in Osceola has been in the family since the 1970s.

In a letter to the Osceola Sentinel-Tribune, Jeff Ed-wards said, “It’s a great com-fort to know that we have the support of our commu-nity, and we are inspired to rebuild as quickly as possible so we can once again have the privilege of serving the greater southern Iowa com-munity.”

No injuries were reported with the fire, which is for-tunate since the blaze was severe enough to have eight area fire departments re-spond to the call for mutual aid.

The farm and home build-ing, which also housed a tire shop, was considered a total loss after the fire.

As of this time, the cause of the fire is still unknown. However, the fire will con-tinue to be under investi-gation by Osceola Fire De-partment, Osceola Police Department and the State

Fire Marshall.Edwards said work is being

done to find retail space to provide the basic items they were known for to the com-munity. It may be a smaller space with limited products, but down the road, a larger store is being planned to re-place the old one.

Edwards added, he want-ed to give a big thank-you to the community for their con-tinued support.

“We don’t have final an-swers yet on the cause of the fire or the amount of the loss, but we are focused on getting back in business as quickly as we can for your sake and ours,” Edwards said.

Back to business

“It’s a great comfort to know that we have the support of our community, and we are inspired to rebuild as quickly as pos-sible so we can once again have the privilege of serving the great-er southern Iowa community.”

Hardy selected to All-State orchestra for second year in a row

A Clarke Community High School student has attained one of the highest individual honors a high school musi-cian can receive — for the second year in a row.

Taylor Hardy, a junior, was selected as a member of the 2014 All-State Or-chestra. She is a French horn student of Brad Lampe and Mike Peters.

Hardy is the daughter of Tanya and Dan Hardy of Osceola.

Clarke had eight students represent the school at the 2014 Iowa All-State Auditions at Indianola High School on Saturday, Oct. 25. The auditions were for the 281-piece All-State Band, 201-piece All-State Orchestra and 601-member All-State Chorus.

Auditions are held at Storm Lake, Hampton, Manchester, Harlan, Indi-anola and Washington. Approximate-ly 17 percent of the students who au-dition are selected for membership in the All-State ensembles.

This audition takes a great deal of time, dedication, practice and courage. Lampe, Clarke high school band direc-tor, said he is proud of all eight of the students who auditioned from Clarke.

Hardy received the top honor in French horn by being chosen on first part in the orchestra. This is the high-est individual honor that a player can receive in the district.

Audrey Sebring (senior, trumpet) and Reed Morris (sophomore, trum-pet) were recalled but were not accept-ed into the band. This means that they made the first cut, which is still a high honor

Other students who auditioned were Terence Havlik (senior, Tuba), Da-kota Davis (senior, flute), Nick John-ston (junior, clarinet), Kayci Mongar (sophomore, clarinet), and Taylor Jor-gensen (senior, percussion).

Participants in the All-State ensem-bles will rehearse in Ames on Friday and Saturday, Nov. 21 and 22, and the Festival Concert will be presented to the public at 7:30 p.m. in Hilton Coli-seum at Iowa State University in Ames on Saturday, Nov. 22.

Iowa Public Television will record the concert for rebroadcast. Check the IPTV website www.iptv.org for the exact dates and times. This program is under the auspices of Iowa High

School Music Association and Iowa Music Educators Association.

Tickets are $18 each, plus fees, and all seats are reserved.

There are two methods of obtaining tickets for the Iowa All-State Festival Concert.

Influenza activity low in Iowa, but two strains circulating

Surveillance by the Iowa Department of Public Health (IDPH) Iowa Influ-enza Surveillance Network shows while flu activity in the state is slowly increasing and remains low, there al-ready are two strains of the virus circulating.

“This is the perfect time to get your flu vaccination,” said IDPH Medical Director Dr. Patricia Quinlisk. “Iden-tification of two circulating strains by the State Hygien-ic Lab means that without a flu vaccination, an individual could become ill with the flu two different times.”

This season’s flu vaccines cover three or four strains of flu, depending on which type of vaccine you receive. Quin-lisk said the early identifica-tion of several flu strains cir-culating in the state means the upcoming influenza sea-son could be more severe than a typical season.

IDPH and the CDC rec-ommend annual influenza vaccinations for everyone 6 months of age and older. It’s especially important to be vaccinated if you have regular contact with people more vulnerable to the com-plications of flu, including babies, children with asth-ma, and the elderly. IDPH also recommends pregnant women be vaccinated to pro-tect themselves, and to pass on some immunity to their baby.

The flu is a serious respira-tory illness caused by viruses. The flu comes on suddenly and symptoms may include fever, headache, tiredness,

cough, sore throat, nasal congestion, and body aches. Illness typically lasts two to seven days, and often puts healthy people in bed for days. Influenza may cause severe illness or even death in people such as the very young or very old, or those who have underlying health conditions.

Influenza is not a ‘report-able disease’ in Iowa, which means health care providers are not required to notify IDPH each time a patient tests positive for influenza; however, IDPH conducts year-round statewide influ-enza surveillance through the Iowa Influenza Surveil-lance Network. This surveil-lance indicates what types of influenza viruses are circu-lating and how widespread influenza illness is. For more information about where and what kind of influenza is in Iowa, go to www.idph.state.ia.us/Cade/Influenza.aspx?pg=FluHome.

Contact your health care provider or local health de-partment to find out where the vaccine is available in your community or use the Flu Vaccine Finder at www.flu.gov/.

Clarke Community Elementary update for November 2014By Jill KigerClarke Community Elementary School principal

As we reflect on the start to the year and being thankful for our schools, here is a quick summary.

Fall testing is complete and stu-dents are working in their leadership portfolios setting goals and tracking data.

Conferences were attended by over 90 percent of our families. An assem-bly reminding our students that bully-ing is not allowed — we don’t do that here — was held.

Students with perfect attendance were recognized at the end of quarter one.

Every Tuesday, students demon-strating outstanding character are chosen to attend breakfast at Hy-Vee. Thanks Hy-Vee!

The parking lot was surfaced and a new sidewalk was put in for staff to get safely to the building.

The preschool students will be go-ing to the bowling alley as the con-clusion to their unit on spheres. New social skills curriculum is being used in preschool-sixth grade called 2nd Step. Teachers notice students using the language, as well as parents of preschoolers have reported children using the skills at home.

Red Ribbon Week was celebrated to take a stand against drugs.

Things to look forward to in the coming months:

Why code? Coding helps develop critical thinking skills, math skills and communication skills. Coding utilizes the Iowa Core and 21st century skills so students can use technology to create original works, collaborate, in-vestigate real world problems, under-stand and practice safe and legal uses of technology and learn the different parts of technology.

The week of Dec. 8, all students

at Clarke Elementary will have be-tween 30 minutes and 45 minutes to code during their computer specials. Many will ask to finish at home or the following week in school. It doesn’t have to be code week to get student’s coding.

Students can check out code.org or try Scratch which was developed by MIT. Scratch is free and web based so students can find a project that interests them, work on it at school, save it and work on it at home or at school later. There is also Scratch Jr. for iPads.

Many students and first time cod-ers will take to coding with amazing speed and find that coding is much easier than people realize so students and parents or grandparents can code together.

The sixth grade band will be hav-ing their winter concert 7 p.m. Dec. 2. The concert will be held in the ele-mentary cafeteria. Students will need to be there by 6:40 p.m. for warm-up.

The concert is free and open to the public. The sixth grade band will also be performing a day concert on Dec. 19 in the elementary cafeteria at 9 a.m. The sixth grade chorus will also be performing at the day con-cert on Dec.19. We hope to see you there.

Reminders:Students eating breakfast should

be in the building by 8 a.m. so they will not be late to class. Please begin with the end in mind in getting to school on time.

Breakfast starts serving at 7:30 a.m. and circle drive doors are un-locked at 7:30 a.m.

Sharpen the Saw activities begin at 7:35 a.m. and students need to eat breakfast before going there.

Midterm is Nov. 17.The elementary will dismiss at 1

p.m. Nov. 26.There is no school Nov. 27 and 28.

ELECTION RESULTS:

Get ready for the snow ordinanceBy Marty DuffusChief of Osceola Police Department

The calendar is reminding us that winter will soon be upon us. And living in Iowa, we are certain to receive snow and ice.

At this time of year, I am re-quired by ordinance to publish the city’s snow ordinance as it relates to parking of vehicles, clearing of snow from sidewalks and the depositing of snow on our roads by commercial snow clearing companies, as well as private residents.

The ordinance 69.12, states: “No person shall park, abandon or leave unattended any vehi-cle on any public street, alley or parking areas in the public right-of-way and immediately adjacent to the traveled portion of the street during any snow emergency parking ban unless the snow has been removed or plowed from the street, alley or parking areas in the public right-of-way and immediately adjacent to the traveled por-tion of a street and the snow has ceased to fall. A snow emergen-cy parking ban shall begin when the National Weather Service predicts that two (2) or more inches of snow or ice will fall in the Osceola area or two (2) or more inches of snow or ice has fallen in the Osceola area, and shall continue through the du-ration of the snow or ice storm and the 48hour period after cessation of the storm, except as above provided upon streets which have been fully opened.”

“Such a ban shall be of uni-form application and the police chief is directed to widely publi-cize the requirements using all available news media in early November of each year. The emergency shall be extended or shortened when conditions war-rant upon proclamation by the street superintendent or police chief.”

Here are the keys points to remember.

The snow ordinance auto-matically goes into effect when the National Weather Service predicts two inches of snow or ice will fall in the Osceola area or when two or more inches of snow or ice has already fallen.

Once in effect it is illegal to leave, for any reason, any vehi-cle on any street, in any alley, on the parking or in any city

owned parking lot unless the snow has been plowed or com-pletely removed and the snow has stopped. This parking ban remains in effect for 48 hours after the storm and may be extended or shortened by the street superintendent or the po-lice chief.

There are usually four ques-tions I am asked after explain-ing the ordinance. How many passes does the street depart-ment make down our streets? Where do I park if I rent and I have no off-street parking? And, how are we as residents notified the snow ordinance is in effect? What are the penal-ties? Here are the answers.

As residents of Osceola, we are privileged to have a great group of street department workers who go out very early in the morning to remove snow from our streets.

Normally, our plows make two passes down our streets for snow removal. The first pass is to simply open the street and make it drivable. The second pass is to widen out the driving lanes and to push the snow far-ther back. It is after the second pass that it is legal to return to parking in the street if the ban has not been extended.

If you are a tenant in a rental property, it is up to your land-lord or you to find a legal, off-street parking place and to re-ceive permission to park there if it is a privately owned lot. In any case, it is your responsibil-ity to not park on the street, alley or parking while the snow ordinance is in effect.

In an effort to notify as many people as possible, I use Inter-net and media outlets.

Technically, you are notified as soon as the weather service makes the two inch prediction or two inches has already fallen.

For the Internet, I use the

following internet sources: The city of Osceola website, www.osceolaia.govoffice2.com, the Osceola Sentinel Tribune’s website, www.osceolaiowa.com, the Osceola Police De-partment Facebook page and our Nixle alert system.

For media sources, I use ra-dio stations KSIB-AM and FM, Creston, WHO radio and KSOI.

For television stations I use KCCI, KDIN, WOI and WHO. These stations generally add our information to their scrolls. I also use the sign boards at American State Bank on the square and HyVee. Thank you to those merchants.

I mentioned the departments’ Nixle alert system. I strongly en-courage you to sign up for this free service. By signing up you will receive alerts from the po-lice department by text message to your cell phone or by email or both. It is a secure system operated by a third party and the department cannot access your number or email address. You can sign up at Nixle.com, or call or come out to the police department and we will be hap-py to assist you with signing up.

Finally, the penalties.Per the city code, violators

of this ordinance are subject to a $20 parking ticket and your vehicle is subject to immediate impoundment.

Now for the dumping and sidewalk clearing portion of our ordinance.

Chapter 135.13 of the city code makes it illegal, “for any person to throw, push, or place or cause to be thrown, pushed or placed, any ice or snow from private property, sidewalks, or driveways onto the traveled way of a street or alley.”

City code 136.03 states, “It is the responsibility of the abut-ting property owners to remove snow, ice and accumulations promptly from sidewalks. If a property owner does not re-move snow, ice or accumula-tions within 48 hours, the city may do so and assess the costs against the property owner for collection in the same manner as a property tax.”

Well, I think I’ve covered it. If you have any questions or have a topic you’d like to read about please don’t hesitate to contact me at the police depart-ment.

IDPH honors radiation protection professionalsThe Iowa Department of

Public Health (IDPH) joins the Conference of Radiation Con-trol Program Directors, Inc. (CRCPD) in recognition of Na-tional Radiation Protection Pro-fessionals Week Nov. 2-8.

The week-long event to honor radiation protection profession-als is set in November to coin-cide with the discovery of X-rays by Wilhelm Conrad Roentgen on Nov. 8, 1895.

“Radiation protection profes-sionals are dedicated individuals working to ensure safe exposure to radiation in medical proce-dures, industrial uses, product safety, emergency response, and the environment in our homes,” said IDPH Bureau of Radiolog-ical Health Chief Angela Leek. “Iowans are able to benefit from the many uses of radiation

through the protection efforts of these individuals.”

There are thousands of radia-tion protection professionals in Iowa, including:

• Radiologic technologists, nu-clear medicine technologists, ra-diologist assistants and radiation therapists who perform medical imaging and therapy procedures.

• Radiologists and other phy-sicians with expertise in radia-tion protection who advise pa-tients and healthcare workers regarding radiation procedures.

• Medical physicists providing clinical service and consultation to ensure accurate assessment of doses delivered to patients during medical imaging and therapy procedures.

• Registered equipment ser-vice providers who ensure that radiation machines are main-

tained and operating safely, as well as evaluating radiation shielding adequacy.

• Radiation safety officers on specific radioactive materials li-censes who are responsible for ensuring safe use of radioactive materials under the license.

• Environmental health and safety personnel who work to ensure radiation safety in re-search.

• Health physicists in the Bu-reau of Radiological Health who serve the citizens of Iowa to pro-tect them from unnecessary and inadvertent exposure to radia-tion, as well as respond to any issues related to radiation in the state.

Radiation protection profes-sionals provide leadership in protecting the public from the hazards of radiation.

6 THURSDAY • NOVEMBER 6, 2014 OSCEOLA SENTINEL-TRIBUNESPORTS Cardinals advance to Class 1A quarterfinals

Set to take on top-ranked Iowa City Regina By SCOTT VICKEROST sports editor • svick-er@osceolaiowa.com

VAN METER — Central Decatur head coach Jon Ped-ersen said his team wasn’t as clean as it was 11 days ago, but his Cardinals still earned their second win here against Class 1A District 8 champi-on Van Meter in just 11 days with a 39-7 romp on Monday.

The win improves Central Decatur to 9-2 for the season and advances the Cardinals to the quarterfinal round of the playoffs for the first time since 2004 — Pedersen’s first year as head coach.

Van Meter stole Central Decatur’s early momentum by stopping the Cardinals short on the 3-yard line and then scoring on a 43-yard touchdown pass from Na-than Justman to Anthony Lowman.

“We didn’t feel like we were as clean as we were the other day,” Pedersen said. “We just didn’t have the juice we usually do. But the kids played hard.

“We felt like we had the momentum at the very be-ginning,” he continued. “They stopped us at the 3 and got excited. Then they scored and they got really excited. It was big for our guys to be able to respond to that. We were able to march it down and put it in the end zone.”

In fact, Central Decatur scored 39 unanswered points to close out the game from that point forward.

Van Meter keyed in on Central Decatur star quar-terback Trenton Wells,

which opened up other areas for the Cardinal offense.

“They bottled Trenton up more than what teams have done recently,” Pedersen said. “We were able to find other things to take advan-tage of that. Rayden Boswell ran the ball well. Trenton threw the ball. We took ad-vantage of what they gave us, but they did take away our main option.”

The Central Decatur de-fense came up big by forcing six turnovers in the game.

Peyton Pedersen picked off a pair of passses, while Peyton Gilbert added anoth-er interception. Sophomore Kade Kelso recovered three fumbles for the Cardinals.

“We had three intercep-tions that were big for us to-night,” coach Pedersen said. “They were moving the ball a little bit. They were im-portant. It stopped their mo-mentum and gave us the ball back.”

Van Meter’s all-state run-ning back Cody Blackwell, who was limited to just 58 rushing yards on 17 carries in the first meeting between the two teams 11 days ago, was able to find more running space on Monday.

Blackwell finished the game with 169 yards on 22 carries. But, no other Van Meter ballcarrier ran for more than 1 yard.

“He got a few more yards tonight, but we did a good job of keeping him under control,” Pedersen said. “He’s a very good player. We executed what we want-ed to do. You have to take him down if you’re going to beat them. We did a good

job of containing him be-tween the 20s.”

To get two wins in just 11 days on District 8 champion Van Meter’s home field is a testament to the leadership this year’s Central Decatur senior class has given this football team, Pedersen said.

“We’re led by a bunch of great seniors that have been through a lot in their days playing for us,” he said. “There’s not a lot that rat-tles them. We don’t have to worry about whether they’re ready to play anymore. They’re ready to play every day. It’s a pleasure to coach them.”

The Cardinals now ad-vance to their first quarterfi-nal playoff game since 2004. Central Decatur fell to AG-WSR 49-14 in that game.

Pedersen said getting back to the quarterfinal round is a big step for his program.

“It’s big for the kids to un-derstand what hard work can do,” he said. “Going, getting yourself through the adversi-ty part of things and under-standing things aren’t always going to be easy. We’ve bat-tled for years and felt like we had some opportunities. This group has really taken advantage of it.”

The Cardinals draw a tough opponent in Friday’s quarterfinal round, trav-eling to top-ranked Iowa City Regina.

The Regals improved to 10-1 for the season with a 57-13 win over District 8’s 2-seed Panorama on Monday, in which all-state quarterback Drew Cook finished 7-of-10 passing for 212 yards.

“It’s going to be a big challenge,” Pedersen said. “It’s a challenge for any-body that plays them. They’re three-time state

champion. It’s not anything our kids are going to shy away from. We’ll go out and give it our best shot we can and see what happens.”

Friday’s game is sched-uled for 7 p.m. Regina High School is located at 2150 Rochester Ave. in Iowa City.

Conference rival ousts Murray, 3-0 By LARRY PETERSONOST sports writer • lpeter-son@crestonnews.com

MURRAY — Grand View Christian had the finishing touch in all three sets in a 25-23, 25-8, 25-21 Class 1A regional semifinal victory over Murray Friday night.

“We could never get the

lead late in the games,” Murray coach Jerry Shields said. “We would get tied, then have a missed serve, dig or block. The second game was one to be forgot-ten, nothing went right.”

Grand View Christian took a 5-0 lead in the third set before Murray came back to tie it at 15.

“We couldn’t get any

closer,” Shields said.With the loss to their

familiar Bluegrass Confer-ence foe, the Lady Mus-tangs finished 20-8 and lose three seniors in Hannah Barber, Chellsea Jones and McKenzie Case.

Barber, slowed by an an-kle injury, was limited to four kills Friday on 12-of-23 hitting. The net leader

was Jade Lecy, 14-14 with 10 kills. S h e l b y Myers had six kills and was a c c u r a t e on serve receive at 9-10. Barber was 14-15 on serve receive.

Brandi Gilbert had 20 set-ting assists. Jones and Lecy each had four digs.

Sixth-ranked Grand View Christian (27-10) plays Stanton in a regional final Wednesday at Greenfield. Stanton defeated Griswold Friday, 3-1.

Hollywood on the Hardwood on Dec. 5

Clarke head girls basket-ball coach Eric Zoske an-nounced a basketball clinic on Friday, Dec. 5 that he is calling Hollywood on the Hardwood.

Hollywood on the Hard-wood is a free basket-ball clinic for girls in third through eighth grades. It will run from 6:30 p.m. until 7:15.

Then, from 7:30 p.m. un-til 9, participants can watch “Despicable Me 2” in the middle school gymnasium.

“That will be free for all girls who attended the bas-ketball clinic,” Zoske said. “It will be $5 for any girl that doesn’t attend the clinic or any other parent or family member that wants to come. The movie is a community wide event. But if the girls go to the basketball clinic, they

get in for free.”Zoske said participants

should bring a lawn chair or something to sit on during the movie. Sandwiches, pop-corn and drinks will be pro-vided during the movie.

There is no need to pre-register. The basketball clinic will likely use both the middle school and high school gyms.

“The girls just simply need to show up and be there by 6:20, to be ready to go by 6:30,” Zoske said. “We’ll do basketball competitions and things like that for 45 min-utes, and then we’ll watch the movie.”

The movie is open for any-one to attend, but will be a $5 cost for anyone not par-ticipating in the basketball clinic.

By The Rev. Dr. Al AdamsFirst Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), Osceola

Amy was amazed. It was her very first time helping prepare and serve food at the downtown “soup kitchen,” but she was discovering that much more than soup was involved.

She had met some good cooks, but these people were simply amazing! They took whatever food was donated and turned it into fabulous (and plentiful) meals.

As she stood in the dining are looking through the large serving window into the kitchen, it looked like a well-or-chestrated cooking ballet was in progress.

Amy looked up to see her best friend Stacy smiling at her. “So Amy, what do you think?”

“Wow,” was all Amy could think to say. “Just wow.”Stacy pointed at the outside doors. “Just wait till all the

people come through those doors. We’ll probably feed over 200 people today.”

“Two hundred? Seriously?” Amy pictured what that would look like. “Two hundred people? Those kitchen people aren’t just good. They’re awesome! Two hundred people fed with…leftovers…simply amazing.”

Stacy smiled again. “Oh, and that’s not the end of the story either. After that, we’ll pack up all the leftovers and take them to the homeless camps down by the river. And Tom (he’s the one making the veggies) discovered another group camping in the old warehouse down by the aban-doned railroad tracks. Our motto truly is: There are no leftovers. No leftovers with Jesus, so no leftovers with His disciples (that’s us) either. That’s why we call it the ‘No Leftovers Ministry.’”

We are a culture which seems inexorably drawn to fan-tastic, sensational, over-the-top spectacles.

Whether in the news or on so-called “reality shows,” we are tempted (many times successfully) and drawn to give these events all our attention.

When we read about Jesus miraculously feeding thou-sands, our attention is drawn the same way: “Jesus said, ‘Make the people sit down.’ Now there was a great deal of grass in the place; so they sat down, about five thou-

sand in all. Then Jesus took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were seat-ed; so also the fish, as much as they wanted.” (John 6:10)

While all our attention is on the “miracle,” Jesus’ attention shifts to great care toward the leftovers.

We tend to overlook the very things Jesus focuses on. Here’s the “end of the story.”

“After everyone was full, Jesus told his disciples, ‘Now gather the leftovers, so that nothing is wasted.’ So they picked up the pieces and filled twelve baskets with scraps left by the people who had eaten from the five barley loaves.” (John 6:12-13)

Twelve tribes of Israel. Twelve disciples. And twelve baskets of “leftovers.”

Twelve. Jesus is teaching us something here. God takes what people consider leftovers, expendable, not worthy of further attention – and builds a nation (12 tribes), a foun-dation for the spread of the good news (12 disciples), and now — now he connects these 12 baskets of “leftovers” to that tradition in order to make the point that not only is nothing wasted, but God builds his kingdom from that which the world would discard as unworthy and useless.

Like most, your attention is probably drawn to the amazing miracle Jesus performed to feed all those people (5,000 men plus women and children). Only God could ac-complish such a thing! But what about the “rest of the sto-ry” – the ending? How do you think they are connected?

As you read about Stacy and the “No Leftovers” minis-try, what are your thoughts?

What/who do we throw out as “leftover,” which this Scripture teaches as needed (and perhaps even vital) to keep, use, and even build a future on?

In God’s eyes, there are no leftovers. None. God accom-plishes truly miraculous things through us when our lives illustrate this eternal truth.

Leftovers …?

Heroes replica trophy begins tour across Iowa, Nebraska Hy-Vee stores When the Iowa

Hawkeyes and Nebraska Cornhuskers meet in Kinn-ick Stadium on Nov. 28 for the fourth annual Hy-Vee Heroes Game, there will be more than Big Ten Con-ference bragging rights at stake.

Along with honoring local heroes and helping raise funds to benefit the

American Red Cross, the game will determine which team gets to take home the coveted Heroes Trophy, which currently resides in Kinnick Stadium in Iowa City following last year’s 38-17 Iowa victory.

In anticipation of the 2014 rematch, Hy-Vee stores in Iowa and Nebras-ka are hosting a Heroes

Game Replica Trophy Tour through Nov. 22. A replica of the Heroes Game Tro-phy will be on display in 29 different Hy-Vee stores, where customers will have the opportunity to register to win tickets to the game and other prizes. Volun-teers with the American Red Cross will assist with transporting the trophy

from one stop to the next along the tour route.

“The Iowa-Nebraska football game is a great sports rivalry, and we want-ed to give football fans in both states a chance to be part of the excitement,” said Darin Hirl, director of event marketing for Hy-Vee. “When the trophy stops in their area, custom-

ers can come by to view it, register to win tickets to the game and support the Red Cross, all while supporting their favorite teams.”

Again this year, Hy-Vee and the two universities will use the national stage created by the Heroes Game to salute individuals and organizations for acts

of heroism in their com-munities. One citizen-he-ro from each state will be invited to attend the game as a special guest of the teams, receive on-field rec-ognition and have his or her name inscribed on the game trophy.

Equipment safety by FFA students High school FFA students

from Murray school became teachers themselves during the morning during the third grade field day Sept. 17.

Justin Jones, Cody Mann, Levi Snyder and Warren Snyder took charge of the farm equipment safety learning station.

Mann and Snyder demon-strated the dangers of auger wagons and the landslide ef-fects of corn that could easily bury someone in a grain bin. Jones and Snyder explained the importance of tractor and other farm equipment safety to the students.

They showed the proper and improper places to stand to get the driver’s attention and some of the safety fea-tures on the big tractor that allows it to be on the road day and/or night – many mir-rors to see all angles around,

flashing lights for caution, seat belt, handles to hold to climbing into the tractor and closing doors around the driver.

The students were in-formed about the purpose of the tractor and the mower/

conditioner behind it and they were able to see the final results with the bales they were sitting on. The students lined up and took turns climbing into the trac-tor and sitting in the seat, giving them the opportunity

to see the world the way a farmer does every day on a tractor.

Clarke County Farm Bu-reau gives thanks to the FFA students for taking time out of their schedule to make presentations.

Clarke County honored with Skilled Iowa Initiative designation

Clarke County was recent-ly honored with the Skilled Iowa Initiative designation.

The ceremony took place at Lakeside Hotel and Ca-sino Friday, Oct. 31. Teresa Wahlert, Iowa Workforce Development director, was in attendance for the honor.

Gov. Terry Branstad launched the Skilled Iowa Initiate in June 2012 as a public/private partnership. The Skilled Iowa Initia-tive is working to match up Iowa workers with unfilled positions across the state. Currently, Iowa’s problem is not necessarily a lack of available jobs, but linking up workers with essential skills to employers with open po-sitions.

Over half of Iowa’s avail-able jobs fall within the mid-dle-skill range, but only one-third of Iowa’s workforce is qualified for these positions. The Skilled Iowa Initiative’s goal is to lessen this discrep-ancy and put the right work-ers in the right jobs.

Iowa has a diverse array of career fields that include the biosciences, manufac-turing, financial services, information technology and transportation sectors, plus many more. Though so many career options exist for

Iowans, the a continued dis-connect exists within the skill sets of the workforce and the emerging careers in Iowa.

Skilled Iowa encourages workers to earn the Nation-al Career Readiness Cer-tificate, a certificate that demonstrates a worker’s knowledge and skills in sev-eral workplace areas. Work-ers’ scores are then classified into four different score rat-ings -- platinum, gold, silver and bronze -- which can be used by hiring employers to gauge a job seeker’s capabil-ities.

Businesses across the state are taking advantage of the NCRC when hiring employ-ees, with more than 11,500 companies across Iowa rec-ommending the certificate to job seekers. These business-es can then use the score rat-ings to see if the job seeker is a qualified candidate for their open positions. Busi-nesses benefit from this cer-tification in multiple ways, such as a shortened hiring process and reduced turn-over rates.

Workers benefit from earning the NCRC because they can showcase their unique skills and capabili-ties and stand out from oth-er workers. To date, over

51,000 Iowans have achieved an NCRC Certificate.

Because of the many bene-fits it offers to businesses and workers alike, the Skilled Iowa Initiative aims to have a much greater share of the Iowa workforce listing the National Career Readiness Certificate on their resumes.

It is commonly thought the Skilled Iowa Initiative will help Iowa in a number of ways.

The program encourages workers to assess their skills,

helps employers find quali-fied workers, and helps the economy grow with a more capable workforce.

With a more skilled work-force, Iowa will become an increasingly attractive place to do business. Iowa Work-force Development is urg-ing community and business leaders, educators, workers and employers to be a part of the Skilled Iowa Initiative’s effort to grow Iowa’s econ-omy.

Students learn about soil at field day

Dennis Schrodt with Clarke County Conser-vation/NRCS and Mark Zuco, Southwest Iowa Area soil scientist, with the help of Clarke FFA students Jake Manternach, Carter Wilken, Conner Offield and Keleah Selsor used their rain simulator to demonstrate to third grade students how good, valu-able top soil could be lost if conservation practices are not valued and used.

The rain simulator is a self-contained van that has four rain spigots over four samples of soil – tilled soil, cornfield with stalks re-maining, grassy area from a fence row (all soil from a few feet of each other) and shingles representing roof run off.

From each area, a view-er can see what the imme-

diate runoff is, what the longer term sub soil loss would be when we get a rain and how much top soil is lost in each case.

The intense tillage sam-ple gets immediate runoff and loss of a lot of top soil with it. The minimum till-age sample with corn stalks left on has much less run-off and less loss of top soil.

The no tillage sample of the grass-land had almost no runoff and little loss of top soil.The roof sample had complete runoff, but no loss of top soil could carry unseen harmful chemicals with the runoff. The visual lesson told the story.

The FFA students dis-cussed the characteristics of healthy soil and the im-portance of conservation practices.
