Putnam County Schools: In the black

PCCC hires new outreach coordinator

Bird tests positive for WNV

By Dixie [email protected]

GRANVILLE — The Put-nam County School Dis-trict Board received good news in regards to the final numbers of the 2013-14 school budget. The fis-cal year end budget has the district with a positive balance of $280,962.

Superintendent Jay McCracken presented the report.

“This is one of the strongest ending fund bal-ance we have ever had,” McCracken said.

Breaking it down, the educational fund revenues were set at $7,749,596. This year the same fund’s expenditures came in at $7,329,937. The budget had been set in the edu-cational fund at $3.9 mil-lion and the actual year end fund balance for the educational fund was $4.1 million.

Due to many building projects during the school year, the operations and maintenance fund rev-enues were $638,230 while the expenditures were $916,631. McCracken pointed out the overall fund balance was at $1.8 million while the bud-geted fund balance was at $1.7 million.

The transportation fund for the district had rev-enue of $810,935 while the overall expenses were

$850,868. The board’s budgeted fund balance was $224,181 while the actual fund balance for the year was $255,856.

“It is to be expected as the transportation fund money from the state has been cut,” McCracken said. “But we knew with Johannes we would be spending more money, but at the same time Pam (Ellena, board secretary) does a great job with the transportation budget.”

The Illinois Municipal Retirement Fund rev-enues were $381,312, while the expenses came in at $294,687. This left the actual IMRF fund balance at $350,5834.

The working cash fund revenue was $64,424 and expenditures were none during the school year. The actual fund balance ended at $2,066,685 against a budgeted fund balance of $2,072,136. The difference in the low

interest was earned on the fund investments.

Under the Tort fund, revenues were $243, 312 and expenditures were $276,706. Under life safety funds, reve-nues were $58,335 and there were no expenses as the life safety work has been completed two years ago. This left the actual fund balance at $382,791.


STANDARD — The Putnam County Community Center has a new officer. Gwen Bray has been added to the staff as the new outreach coordinator. The out-reach coordinator passes infor-mation on the center’s programs to the appropriate population in Putnam County and surrounding areas. PCCC Director Autumn Keegan is thrilled to have Bray on staff.

“So if people see Gwen come to their door, please talk to her.

She will be distributing informa-tion, coming door to door in the county,” Keegan said.

“I have helped over here since I’ve came here. I’ve done well-ness fairs here before. As a mas-sage therapist, some of my cli-ents are from around here, so they know me too,” Bray said. “It just kind of evolved from that point.”

The PCCC was hard at work with an outreach project last week — making handmade ravi-oli. Keegan explained the pro-cess they were following.

“We make the dough in a Kitch-enAide mixer. It’s just eggs, flour,

water and oil. Then we roll it out flat with our rollers. Then they take the meat and roll them, cut-ting into ravs,” Keegan said.

Helping the project along was Bray who was rolling dough with Keegan. Wrapping up the meat with the dough was Helen Aim-one, Norma Hrovat and Dorothy Grivetti as well as PCCC book-keeper Kelli Keegan.

The project of making the ravs is being held in conjunction with an event that is being planned at the center on Nov. 1. Details are still being worked out, but Autumn Keegan promises a lot of fun will be involved.

PRINCETON — Area surveillance for the West Nile Virus (WNV) has con-firmed a dead crow in Ster-ling has tested positive for the virus.

The Sauk Valley News Daily Gazette reported on July 17 that Whiteside County Public Health Administrator Beth Fiorini had issued a press release confirming a crow had contracted the virus from a Culex mosquito, the pri-mary spreader of the dis-ease.

Bureau/Putnam Coun-ty Health Department’s Director of Health Protec-tion Kurt Kuchle said local WNV surveillance contin-ues, but the health depart-ment is having problem getting birds for test-ing this year. The health department has sent in only one dead bird for WNV testing this year. The bird was from the Gran-ville area and tested nega-tive for WNV.

The health department has received other birds, but the birds which the health department has picked up so far, or were brought to the health department, have all been too decomposed.

In order to be tested, a bird has to be fresh, dead less than 12 hours. In cases when birds have been brought to the health department on a Friday, those birds will not keep, even with ice packs, until Monday when the state lab reopens, he said.

The health department recommends the public not handle the birds too much. The best way to pick up the bird is with a plastic bag and then place it in a second bag, which should be put in a cooler or refrigerator if the bird is found after department open hours. Obviously, he is not talking about a cooler or refrigerator that is used for food, he said.

As a reminder, the local health department needs five birds from Bureau County and five birds from Putnam County to be sent to WNV testing. The health department would like to get at least two birds in July and two birds in August from each county. The quarterly reports to the Department of Pub-lic Health don’t look so good without numbers to report, positive or nega-tive, he said.

“I’m sure other health department are having the same problems. We are conducting the required activities, but the reports don’t reflect a whole lot of activity. The Department of Public Health does ask for hours spent on collect-ing and testing, but not how many birds that were collected but could not be tested,” he said.

As far as local mosqui-to surveillance, Kuchle said the health depart-ment has tested five mos-quito batches from Put-nam County and 10 from Bureau County. All have been negative, he said.

Though he hadn’t yet seen the most current numbers from the state, the number of positive birds and mos-quitoes is lower than last year, Kuchle said. There are plenty of mosquitoes, but lower WNV activity. That

low activity is most likely weather-related, he said.

Typically, Kuchle said the WNV season would be entering peak activity this week. However, this year’s peak could be as late as the third week of August, he added.

“Cool and wet usually means less West Nile; hot and dry usually means

more,” Kuchle said. “No one can predict, but the arrow is pointing toward a low number of human cases this year. But, people should continue to follow the stan-dard mosquito protection precautions. I do know that if you want to be eaten alive, pick green beans or any-thing else form my garden at dusk.”

When a person hears the phrase “genetically modi-fied food,” it sometimes brings Frankensteinian images to mind from sci-ence fiction: Food that can help control the masses, make you sick without realizing it or made from ... other sources.

In reality, genetically modified foods have been around for quite a while. Most of the time people do not even realize they are eating foods that have been genetically modi-fied. In the Illinois Gen-eral Assembly, SB1666 — more commonly called the Genetically Engineered Food Labeling Act — was introduced in February of 2013. In this bill upon its passing, any food with more than a certain per-centage of genetically modified content must be labeled as genetically modified.

There has been some debate in the media about genetically modified foods; some grounded in science, but others in misinforma-tion. Opponents of geneti-cally modified foods say consumers have the right to know what is in the food they are eating. The por-tion of the food industry in favor of genetically modi-fied foods say they are safe and labels would only con-

fuse the consumer. The Food and Drug Adminis-tration has sided with the non-labeling side of the argument so far, which has led many states to make the decision themselves.

To define what foods or organisms qualify as genet-ically modified is difficult. It is generally something you can’t detect on a visual level. Genetically modified foods are animals or plants which have had genes cop-ied from other plants or animals and inserted into their DNA.

“Hy-Vee shares the pub-lic policy position of the Food Marketing Institute and the Grocery Manu-facturers with regard to GM food and biotechnol-ogy — namely, that we believe consumers have a basic right to know the rel-evant information about the products they buy, including information about genetically modified foods or foods contain-ing genetically modified ingredients,” Peru Hy-Vee perishables manager Ste-ven O’Neil said. “Hy-Vee wants to provide custom-ers with as much informa-tion as possible to enable them to make informed buying decisions. We think the process of educating the public about GM foods and biotechnology will be most effective if undertak-en as a cooperative effort among the food industry, the government and the

scientific and consumer communities.”

Scientists have worked with genetics to improve the world’s food sup-ply, but the difference in genetically modified foods and what some call “engi-neered” foods is the pro-cess in which it is done. “Engineered” food is cre-ated in a lab. The process makes it mature at a quick-er pace than normal. Sci-entists will add traits to the food to make it stronger, more resistant to disease and able to resist pesti-cides it would normally not be able to.

There are a multitude of ways these foods find their way to your local grocery store. The geneti-cally modified corn and soybeans may be used by farmers to feed their cattle for better meat or made into ingredients like corn starch, soybean oil or high fructose corn syrup, ingre-dients used in much of the processed foods in Amer-ica.

The Food and Drug Administration has yet to approve genetically modified meat or fish for human consumption. According to the United States National Library of Medicine and the National Institute of Health, there is more testing and research yet to be done before more genetically modified they can be allowed in the con-sumer market.

A summary for the total ending fund bal-ances had the board budgeted at $8,661,793 with the actual ending balance of $9,070,667. The FY ‘13 fiscal year end balance was $8,789,705.

In other news the board adopted the board meeting calender for the 2014-15 school year.

The board also hired personnel for the upcoming school year. Natalie Hulmstrom was hired to direct the fall play and spring musical at Putnam County High School (PCHS); Matt Gimbal, full-time histo-ry teacher and in-school suspension monitor at PCHS; Jennifer Smith, Title 1 reading teacher at Putnam County Prima-ry School (PCPS); John Coos, Putnam County Junior High School (PCJH) full-time math teacher and coach for seventh-grade basket-ball and assistant coach baseball; Jared Moore, Scholastic Bowl coach at PCHS; Stacy Hamby and Connie Hartman, Jump Start summer school program; Alisa Stewart, science teacher at PCHS; Chris New-some, varsity baseball coach; and Kyle Ander-son, assistant baseball coach at PCHS.

Putnam County to hold delinquent properties auction

HENNEPIN – Putnam County, as trustee, has com-pleted their tax deed proceed-ings on real estate properties that were delinquent for 2010 and prior real estate taxes. The county, as trustee will now offer for sale the real estate obtained to the public. They will offer approximately nine items through a sealed bid auction sale. All sealed bids must be in the Putnam Coun-ty Treasurer’s office located in the Putnam County Court-house, 120 N. Fourth St. in Hennepin no later than the close of business on Aug. 8.

The sale of these lots should be a major benefit to both the taxing districts and the neigh-boring property owners. This sale will place the properties into the hands of individu-als who have an interest in owning them. The county,

as trustee, hopes these new owners will both maintain the property and keep the real estate taxes paid. By eliminat-ed abandoned properties, the appearance of the neighbor-hood should improve and the value of adjoining properties should increase.

The required minimum bid is $637 per item. All items will be sold to the highest sealed bid received on or before Aug. 8. Complete bidder’s packets and sale catalogs are now available at the Putnam County Treasurer’s office or online at www.iltaxsale.com.

For further information contact the Auction Sale Department of the Putnam County Tax Agent’s office at 800-248-2850 or 618-656-5744. Office hours are 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Obituaries Route 71 set for work through StandardCHICAGO — Gov. Pat

Quinn signed a new state capital construction bill that invests $1.1 billion in road and bridge proj-ects to improve trans-portation, create jobs and boost economic development across Illi-nois. The bill will deliver more than 210 projects and create an estimated 14,300 jobs.

Construction on many of the “shovel ready” projects has already begun this summer. A list of capital construc-tion projects includes just under $1.2 million to resurface Route 71 from Route 89 to Coun-

ty Highway 54 in Cedar Point.

Acting Illinois Trans-portation Secretary Erica Borggren noted with the record setting winter of 2014-15, the infrastruc-ture in Illinois took a hard hit.

“This construction program is the shot in the arm that our trans-portation system and our economy needs,” Borggren said.

Quinn signed the capi-tal construction bill and also signed Senate Bill 3224 which provides the General Obligation bond authorization needed to fund the $1.1 billion

worth of transportation infrastructure improve-ments.

In addition to fund-ing $1 billion in projects in the Illinois Depart-ment of Transporta-tion’s (IDOT) Fiscal Year 2015-20 Multi-Year Pro-gram, the new capital construction program includes $100 million for municipal and township governments to improve infrastructure at the local level. The funding, distributed and overseen by IDOT, will help com-munities throughout Illinois combat potholes and make other critical infrastructure repairs.

Field of Dreams

Taking my own pilgrimage

My oldest first cousin, Russell (Coonie) Alleman Jr., passed away on July 13. Our grandparents were Amos and Bertha (Kessler) Alleman. My father, Walter, and his father, Russell (Pat), were brothers.

Coonie loved to laugh, always smiling and happy. I have fond memories of growing up with him in Tonica. Our families would get together several Sundays a year for dinner.

Coonie could drive cars when he was very young. After dinner, we would take his cousins out in his dad’s Model A coupe with the rum-ble seat. We always went out east of Tonica on the gravel roads. Coonie was an excellent driver. I remem-ber we would be going at what I thought was a high speed when somehow, he could turn that Model A right around in the loose gravel, and in seconds, we were travelling back in the opposite direction. It was a real thrill to be sitting in the rumble seat when this happened. Then Coonie would drive us back into town slowly and take another group of cousins out for the same ride. Our parents never knew about what dangerous happenings were going on with their children.

The day after Coonie died, I was at the Peru Auto Electric Shop in

Peru. Several men were outside the shop and knew I was Coonie’s cousin. They all agreed no one knew Model A cars like Coonie did. At the Methodist Church in Tonica at Coonie’s funeral, his Model A car friends lined their coupes up by the church, then followed Coonie to the Tonica Cemetery. When they left the cemetery, each one gave Coonie a final salute by honking their Model A horns as they drove off.

I’ve been thinking a lot about pilgrimages lately, how we are all on them, whether we realize it or not.

According to Webster’s Dictionary, a pilgrimage is a journey, especially a long one, made to a sacred place as an act of religious devotion. A pilgrimage can also be defined as simply the course of life on Earth.

Though many of us may not have the opportunity, or develop that oppor-tunity, to take a religious pilgrimage to grow spiritually, there’s no question we are all on a pil-grimage that takes us day-by-day through life, with lots of experiences and time for self-discovery along the way.

My interest in pilgrimages has been piqued in recent months, since last fall when our youngest daughter first started talking about taking a five-week pilgrimage across Spain, to walk the 500-mile El Camino de Santiago. She is on that pilgrimage now.

Also known as the Way of St. James, the El Camino de Santiago generally begins on the border between France and Spain and ends in northwestern Spain at the shrine of the apostle St. James the Great in the area of Galicia. Pilgrims have been traveling the El Camino since Medi-eval times.

We have talked with our daughter several times since she’s been in Spain. We’ve received text messages and photos from her most days, depending upon WiFi acces-sibility. Back home, on the coffee table in our living room, we now have a large map of Spain on which we are mark-ing her journey.

Though our daughter is the one actually making the El Camino, walking about 15-20 miles a day and carrying everything she has with her, about 15 pounds worth, in her backpack, in a way I am discovering more of my own pilgrimage as I listen to her stories.

There are things to be learned on pilgrimages, whether they are taken in Spain or right in my home town.

For one thing, when it comes right down to it, we prob-ably have way too much stuff that we drag through life, materially and figuratively. Second, there’s something to be said about putting one foot in front of the other and just making it through the day sometimes. And then, there is a wisdom that comes by slowing down so you can see the petals on the flower a bit better, appreciate the sunset and think more quietly.

As a parent, part of my pilgrimage is the continuing realization that I’m no longer in control of my kids’ lives. It’s time for me to step back and watch them explore and make their own choices. If I had my way, my kids and grandkids would all live much closer to me. As it turns out, no one even lives in the state. And that is OK because everyone has their own pilgrimage to take.

Living with the idea of pilgrimage in mind can be a freeing thing, sort of a sorting and sifting of the important things in life.

All things considered, maybe the most important thing about pilgrimage is not just the road we take but what we become along the way.

COMMENTARY


GRANVILLE — Putnam County/Hall head wrestling coach Jerry Kriewald never stops looking for ways to assist his young team in getting better over the summer for winter competition. To this end, he went back to his alma matter the University of Dubuque and found another college professional to come give a seminar to his summer wrestlers this past week.

Josh Terrell, one of the University of Dubuque’s assistant coaches and four time All American National Champ, worked with the PC/Hall wrestlers on various holds that they can use during the upcoming 2014-15 season. Terrell came to wrestling in his younger days after a family move.

“I moved to a different town and my buddy down the street who is my best friend today still was involved in it. I wanted to check it out. I learned a lot in my first encoun-ter and decided to pursue it,” he said.

During his college days, Terrell assisted his coach give a seminar to PC/Hall wrestlers and was happy to come again on his own to help the young program train. This time around he introduced some different wrestling positions to the team and discussed tactical strategies that they can employ in future matches.

“I shared some things that I have done and have had some success with,” Terrell said. “Its a little more inti-mate, being a small school and all. The kids can ask ques-tions and get some immediate feedback which I hope will be helpful.”

Terrell also focused on how a wrestler can defeat themself during a meet if they are not continually think-ing in a positive way.

“Its a 10-90 type of thing. Ten percent physical and 90 percent mental. So many kids can pysche themselves out or pump themselves up during a match. They are going to do what their mind tells them to do. It all starts up top,” he said.

Charlie McCook, a soon to be freshman at Putnam County, enjoyed the camp and is looking forward to his first season on the team at the high school level.

“We learned leg moves, some different things than before,” McCook said. “We also focused on how to think in a match.”

Spring Valley’s Evan Kiphart, a junior at Hall, also has learned some new ways to approach a match.

“We have learned a lot of leg riding and how to break your man down when you are on the mat. He also talked about how to get back points when you put him in a pin,” Kiphart said. “It the same as what we have learned, yet different in terms of approach and what you can do from each position. Everyone has their own ways of doing things and you can learn different things from different teachers. It’s not cut and dried or anything.”

Putnam County Golf Invitational a success


MCNABB — The annual Putnam County Golf Invi-tational was held July 26 at Edgewood Golf Course. The event was organized by Eric and Mandy Ciucci and proceeds were split between the Putnam County girls and boys golf teams as well as the Putnam County Athletic Boosters.

Winners included: in the Men’s Division, first place was a tie at 15 under par with a 57 final score. The team of Kenny Wonder, Jeff Aimone, Steve Gabrielse Sr. and Steve Gabrielse Jr., along with the second team of Chris Cyr Charlie Judd Steve Harvey and Danny Herman, were the winners.

In the Women’s Division, first place was a 70 score earned by the team of Christina Mennie, Kelly Sartain, Kathy Doyle and Jamie Cyr.

In the Mixed Division, first place was won with a score of 60. The team of Craig and Amy Jessen and Harold and Amy Fay took the prize.

The team that had the most fun was given to Team Lenkaitis, made up of Charlie Lenkaitis, Joe Lenkaitis, Albert Lenkaitis and Chad (Haage) Lenkaitis.

The 50/50 drawing was held and won by Kent Zellmer, who donated the winnings back. Toni Lawley and Andrea Brannon assisted running the tourna-ment.

Eric Ciucci said, “The day was such a success. We are so humbled by the support for the Putnam County Golf Program. The girls golf team needs more uni-forms so that is what was on our minds when we were planning. We are happy to say we will be able to get enough uniforms.”

Putnam County’s Sabotta keeps runningBy Dixie SchroeDer

[email protected]

MCNABB – For Jon Sabo-tta, a soon to be sophomore, it’s all about genetics. The “its” is running and Sabo-tta has been enjoying long distance running on Put-nam County High School’s, (PCHS) Cross County and Track teams.

“I think I started long dis-tance running when I was about 8 or 9,” Sabotta said. “My grandpa and cousins kind of got me into it.”

Sabotta’s grandpa, Bob Rehn, who is current presi-dent of the Starved Rock Runners Club, has assisted with their yearly running clinics for a while. Sabotta attended one and he was

hooked.At Putnam County Junior

High School, Sabotta partic-ipated in track as there is no cross country team at that level. His events included the mile, the 800 meter race, the 4 x 400 meter, 4 x 100 meter and the 4 x 200 meter race were all his events.

As Sabotta moved up to PCHS, he repeated his work on the track team in the one mile, two mile and the 4 x 800 meter and 4 x 400 meter events. He sees the two mile as his favorite and where his strengths are put to good use.

As the 2013-14 school year progressed, Sabotta felt he was gaining in his running skill set. He credits his rise in abilities to his work on the

PCHS Cross Country team. His workouts vary depend-ing on what type of race he is working towards.

“I do a lot of 5Ks to keep in shape. I did one in Bloom-ington, I did the Henne-pin July 4th one, I did the Steamboat Classic and one in Minonk,” he said.

Sabotta runs three to four miles a day almost every day. Having recently attend-ed the University of Illinois Cross Country camp, Sabo-tta got to work with a new group of runners to improve himself.

“At the U of I cross coun-try camp we would wake up at 6:45 every day and go for a run of between 6-8 miles. We would run at Lake of the Woods near Mahomet,

at the colleges cross country course, around the campus,” he said. “Then we would eat breakfast and listen to a speaker talk to us about different aspects in run-ning. And then on July 23, all of the campers had a race on the U of I cross country course.”

At the very heart of his running however, is his abil-ity to set priorities for him-self.

“You just have to set pri-orities. For me during the school year it’s grades. then running,” he said. “But when I’m not in school, I like to put running first.”

Extreme bull riding comes to the BC FairPRINCETON — Get ready for

heart-pounding, bone breaking action as SEBRA Extreme Bull Rid-ing comes to the 159th Bureau County Fair in Princeton on Aug. 22 at 7 p.m. The event is presented by Prescott Brothers Chrysler, Dodge and Ford. Admission is $10 for age 13 and up, $5 for kids 7-12 and ages 6 and under are free.

This rodeo event will bring some of the nation’s top bull riders com-peting for a season filled with more than half a million dollars in cash and prizes from coast to coast. More than 500 bull riders compete in SEBRA at more than 450 events each season, and many go on to compete at the PBR finals in Janu-ary.

“SEBRA Extreme Bull Riding is the largest association of its kind in North America and grows big-ger every season with some of the best cowboys and bucking stock,” said SEBRA President Chan Canter. “SEBRA events are family-focused and run by some of the best pro-ducers and stock contractors in the business. It’s a thrill-a-minute fun for the whole family.”

Bull riding is considered North America’s most dangerous sport

and remains one of its fastest grow-ing sports. It has been more than 14 years since rodeo played the grand-stand at the Bureau County Fair.

For complete information about the event and the fair, visit www.bureaucountyfair.com. This year’s fair will run Aug. 20-24.
