The family of Eugene Kipp are pleased with
a new community memorial park in Yale
that has been started in memory of their
father and grandfather, a longtime member
of the community who passed away last fall.

Tree Planting in memory of Eugene Kipp
lays groundwork for Memorial Park
By ASHLEY SCHABLE

Eugene Kipp will continue giving to the community of Yale for
many years to come.
Kipp, who spent 25 years work-
ing for the city of Yale, passed
away on November 14, 2015,
at the age of 71. A Community
Memorial Park has been established with the planting of eight
trees in his memory.

Lloyd wins

Republican race
for Supervisor
of Wood Duck Tree Farms, and a
longtime friend of Kipp’s, donated
a variety of shade trees, including
Locusts, Oaks and Maples. Eike
planted the trees last week in the
memorial park, located along
Main Street in Yale, across the
road from Farmer’s State Bank.
“It’s another community involvement to honor all he did
in his lifetime here,” Eike said.
“This just extends his community development.”
Eugene Kipp not only worked
as maintenance man and water
superintendent for the city of
Yale, but he was instrumental in
some of the biggest community
projects during his time.
He worked on the Main Street
project, which saw all the old
buildings come down, and the
mini-mall development around
1993. He was part of the new fire
and municipal buildings in the
late 90’s, early 2000’s, as well as
the new community building
in 2009.
“He got in on a lot of those
projects,” said his son Kendall
Kipp. “He really played a part.”

Although challenged by two other candidates,
Jack E. Lloyd sealed the Republican nomination for the First District Supervisor seat in the
Guthrie County primary elections with 47 votes.
“I’m feeling relieved,” Lloyd said. “I didn’t
think there was a pretty good turn out. But it
seemed I got enough to win. “I want to thank
everyone for coming out and voting for me,
and I hope to see them again in November.”
Lloyd’s win makes him the candidate to face
off in the general elections against Democratic
incumbent Jerome F. Caraher, who ran unopposed.
“You never know about elections,” Caraher
said. “I knew no one was running against me,
[but] I didn’t know who my opponent was going
to be. I’m glad I won, but nobody was running
against me. I was all by myself.”
Jerri Christman — the current County Auditor — finished the race for the Republican
nomination for First District Supervisor with
33 votes, and James Carroll with 21.
Some incumbent candidates ran unopposed
this year, including Mike Dickson for Republican Fifth District Supervisor, earning 48 votes.
Sheriff Marty Arganbright was also uncontested for the Democratic Sheriff nomination,
where he picked up 266 votes. Arganbright is
running for his third term as Guthrie County
Sheriff. While there was no one entered for the
Republican nomination, there were 28 scattered votes.
Marci McClellan ran unopposed for the Republican County Auditor spot and collected
323 votes. Although she did not have any immediate opposition, McClellan said there is
always the worry that the public will not put
anything down.
Central Valley High School in Stuart.
“This will give both recent graduates valuable experience as they
pursue their interest in the arts after high school,” said Lynsi Pasutti,
co-president of the Guthrie County
Arts Council and the event’s coordinator, in the news release.
Those attending the event are encouraged to bring lawn chairs and
stay a while; area musicians Chad
Elliott, Jake Kemble, Brick Imerman
and Dale Menning & the Stardusters
will perform throughout the day.
When Caitlin Ware was 6 or 7
years old, she hand-wrote scripts
for plays — not movie scripts, she
admonishes.
They typically featured
talking animals
who taught a
lesson of some
type — bigger
doesn’t always
mean smarter, or if you do Caitlin
this bad thing, Ware
you’ll get sat on
by an elephant.
She’d then grab paper and scissors and try to make costumes to
act out the plays before inevitably
learning each time that paper
costumes aren’t very effective.
Now, Ware, 21 and a recent
graduate of Rowan University
in Glassboro, New Jersey, has
shifted the focus of her writing
through her study of journalism
and is starting work this week
as a reporter with Herald Publishing Co. in Guthrie and Adair
counties. She will write for the
Guthrie Center Times, the Guthrie County Vedette, the Lake Panorama Times, the Adair County
Free Press and The Fontanelle
Observer.
Ware was born in Mississauga,
Canada, but has lived most of
her life in New Jersey.

“Tour The Raccoon” &

both riding the RRVT
this weekend June 11-12

Both bike tours will be overnighting in
Jefferson during the Bell Tower Festival
Two organized bike rides will
be held on the full length of the
Raccoon River Valley Trail on Saturday and Sunday, June 11 and
12. Both “Tour The Raccoon”
and RAGBRAI’s Dream Team will
be riding from the Des Moines
area to Jefferson on Saturday,
camping overnight, and then
returning to the Des Moines
area on Sunday.
It will be a good weekend to
be a visitor in Jefferson, as the
community’s annual Bell Tower
Festival will be in full swing, with
special activities happening all
over town.
The Des Moines Cycle Club’s
8th annual “Tour The Raccoon”
is open to the public, and typically attracts up to 100 bicyclists,
some of them from other states
around the Midwest. Georgie
Libbie, president of the DMCC,
said numbers will be down this
year, probably to “about 35 to 45
riders,” because the club got a late
start organizing the ride. That
happened, she said, because the
club’s leaders were in disagreement with some new rules and
requirements for group events
on the trail that are now required
by the three county conservation boards that own and operate the RRVT.
The disagreement has been at
least temporarily resolved, and
“Tour The Raccoon” -- one of the
best rides for experiencing the
whole RRVT -- is rolling again. Online registration and more information is available at www.
dmcycleclub.com. “Tour The
Raccoon” riders will be camping
at the Trailhead Campground
in Jefferson.
RAGBRAI’s Dream Team, now
in its 21st year, has done training
rides in past years on portions
of the RRVT, but this will be the
first time the team of 40 teen
riders and about 15 adult mentors will ride the full trail. They
had planned to do the full trail
ride last July, but were forced to
cancel when wild thunderstorms
with lightning raked the area on
that Saturday. But hopefully the
weather will cooperate this year,
and the Dream Teamers will be
camping at Greene County High
School in Jefferson.
Since 1996, RAGBRAI, the Bike
World bicycle shop and other
supporters in Des Moines have
put together a team of girls and
boys, teenagers in their middle
school & high school years, to
learn about bicycling and experience RAGBRAI. About 40 are picked each year
after being recommended by
school counselors, pastors and
at-risk youth program workers. Most of the team members are

obituaries
By CAITLIN WARE
A vehicle drove through a patch
of wet concrete on County Road
N-54 on May 6, damaging an approximately 50-foot-long stretch
of road.
The construction crew working
on repairing the road was out of
sight when what witnesses described as a white pickup truck
drove through the freshly laid
strip of concrete around 9:30 a.m.
The driver immediately backed
the truck out and drove off, leaving behind deep ruts.
The road in question was
closed for construction, except
for local traffic, and was marked
with road closure signs and a
fence. Sheriff’s Deputy Jesse Swensen from the Guthrie County
Sheriff’s Office responded to the
scene and believes it is possible
the incident could have been the
result of the truck’s driver not
being able to tell where the wet
portion of the highway started
and the dry portion stopped.
“I’m sure they went around the
barricade thinking they could
just get down the road,” Swensen
said. “The wet concrete and the
dry concrete are about the same
color. Flying down the highway
it could be hard to make that
distinction between the two.”
It is unlikely that the act was
intentional, according to Guthrie County Sheriff Marty Arganbright.
“I don’t think it was criminal,
I don’t think they intentionally
did it,” Arganbright said. “What it
looks like is they went into it and
were like, ‘Oh my goodness, it’s
sinking in,’ and they backed up.”

two farmers’
experience
using a
custom-built
roller-crimper
CHURDAN
Cover crops are an increasingly common sight on Iowa
farm fields, but roller-crimpers, an implement that can help
extend some of the benefits of
cover crops offer by letting farmers delay termination, are still a
rarity in the Midwest.
“Roller-crimpers aren’t that
common in the U.S., but they’ve
been used for about three decades in South America,” says
Billy, who farms at FC Hunter
IRRV Trust near Churdan. “With
roller-crimpers, you can let cover
crop biomass grow taller and longer into the spring than what a
conventional farmer might do.”
He says this extra cover crop
growth extends the soil and water quality benefits cover crops
provide while helping to suppress
weeds and retain soil moisture.
He adds that, while many university-led roller-crimper experiments have focused on organic
systems, conventional farmers
who want to reduce their use
of herbicides have also found
roller-crimpers to be helpful.
Billy, along with George Naylor,
a neighbor who also farms, will
showcase the results of their own
experiment with using a rollercrimper ahead of planting soybeans at a Practical Farmers of

STEM Council to launch six more
school+business partnerships in Iowa
Proposals to be an Iowa STEM BEST
model will inspire youth and spur
local economic development
The Iowa Governor’s STEM
(Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics)
Advisory Council has designated a portion of legislative
funding to help establish six
new Iowa STEM BEST® (Businesses Engaging Students and
Teachers) models across the
six STEM regions.
A STEM Council priority for
FY2017 is to drive additional community partnerships
where schools work together
with local employers to build
and teach STEM curriculum
related to local industry applications. Eight of these STEM
education models, known as
Iowa STEM BEST, already dot
the state, serving as examples
for other partnerships to follow.
“Learning how to align what
students learn in the classroom with what exists in Iowa’s
jobs of today and the future is
the signature goal of the Iowa
STEM BEST program,” said Lt.
Guthrie County Road N54 receives
attention from around the globe
A concrete overlay project
on county road N54 in Guthrie County is getting a lot of
attention.
Manatt’s Inc., a paving contractor from Brooklyn, Iowa,
began the concrete overlay
project on a 10.9-mile section, from Highway 44 south
to County Road F65, just north
of Adair, on May 19.
The original pavement was
constructed in the mid-1950s
in three stages. The twentytwo feet wide, 7-inch Portland
Cement Concrete (PCC) carried over four decades of traffic before it was overlaid. In
1993, a single 3-inch asphalt
overlay was constructed using the same 22-inch width.

quality for N54 patrons and

Gov. Kim Reynolds, co-chair
of the STEM Council. “Students who get to experience
a STEM BEST environment
not only develop invaluable
soft skills like collaboration
and communication, but they
also build relationships with
future employers in the communities where they live.”
Applied learning has a long
history in the realm of career
and technical education, including courses like consumer
science and industrial technology. What the Iowa STEM
BEST models aim to create
are similar learning experiences in core areas of study
like mathematics and science.
“The current eight STEM
BEST models represent major
business and industry sectors
across Iowa,” said Kemin Industries President and CEO
Dr. Chris Nelson, co-chair of
the STEM Council. “From industrial manufacturing and
technology innovations to
entrepreneurship and engineering, communities are
learning how to work together
to introduce their students
to the skillsets needed and
opportunities available to
them in their hometowns
across Iowa.”
Beginning today, June 1,
the STEM Council invites
school+business partnerships across Iowa to submit
their proposal to build a
STEM BEST model at www.
IowaSTEM.gov/STEMBEST/
Proposal. All Iowa private and
public schools and school districts serving students in any
of grades K-12 are eligible to
apply. All six awarded applicants will receive $25,000 to
be matched with local costshare and will be designated
as an Iowa STEM BEST model.
The application window will
close on Friday, September
23, and recipients will be announced in early November.

to keep the project cost-effective for the County, Guthrie
County Engineer Josh Sebern
researched the available options and found that the concrete overlay option was the
most cost-effective. With an
overlay in the plans, Sebern
joined forces with the National
Concrete Pavement Technology Center in Ames to work on
a specific concrete mix design
to improve durability and longevity of the pavement. Once
the mix design was established,
Steve Reneker of Kirkham Michael Consulting Engineers designed the plans.
“To pavement nerds like
us this is a neat project,” said
John Cunningham, Iowa Concrete Paving Association. “It’s
increasing the durability of the
concrete.”
Cunningham said the concrete in Guthrie County will
last decades.
There are currently five miles
of the 10.9-mile project completed, and Cunningham said
depending upon Iowa weather,
the paving crew will continue
to complete slightly more than
one mile of paving each day.

Wednesday, June 15, from 10
a.m. to 1 p.m., near Churdan.
Billy and George received a Sustainable Education Research and
Education (SARE) grant from
North Central SARE FarmerRancher program to test using
a roller-crimper to terminate
cover crops in corn-soybean production systems, and to determine how an organic bio-soil
enhancer affects soil properties
and plant health.
The event – “Effects of a Custom-Made Roller-Crimper on
Rye Cover” – is free to attend,
and will feature a lunch provided by local chefs Tony Pille
and Chris Place. RSVPs are
requested for the meal. Please
contact Lauren Zastrow at lauren@practicalfarmers.org or
(515) 232-5661 by Friday, June
10. The field day will take place
at George’s farm, Naylor Farm,
located at 1204 120th St., a few
miles northeast of Churdan.
The event is sponsored by Blue
River Hybrids Organic Seed,
Greene County Soil and Water
Conservation District, Midwest
Organic and Sustainable Education Service (MOSES), North
Central SARE and Organic Crop
Improvement Association International.
Guests will see a field on
George’s farm with soybeans
emerging from a cereal rye cover
crop terminated with the roll-
er-crimper a few weeks earlier. They will get to help assess
how well the roller-crimper did
at terminating the cover crop,
and whether the resulting straw
mulch is providing weed suppression. Attendees will also get
to see the roller-crimper, which
was manufactured locally by
Minnehan Metal Works, and
hear from the builder, Anthony
Minnehan. Other speakers will
include Ajay Nair and Kathleen
Delate, with Iowa State University’s Department of Horticulture, who will share details on
10 years of experience terminating cover crops using a rollercrimper in vegetable and grain
production.
Billy is in the process of transitioning to organic certification
and is incorporating many no-till
principles. George raises corn,
soybeans, oats and alfalfa, and is
transitioning to organic on part
of his farm. In preparation for the
organic transition, both farmers have recently added buffers
and pollinator strips as Conservation Reserve Program quail
habitat to attract beneficial insects. Billy has begun beekeeping with two hives.
From Ames or Carroll: Take
U.S. 30 to Jefferson. At the intersection of U.S. 30 and IA Hwy
4, go north on IA Hwy 4 and
travel 8 miles toward Churdan.
At what’s known as “the 5-mile
corner,” stay straight and head
toward Paton on County Road
P29. Go 2 miles to 120th Street
and turn left. The field day site
is about 1.5 miles.

25 field days around Iowa. All
field days are open to the public, and most are free to attend.

DAMAGE
TORI’S ANGELS
receives DONATION
FROM Page 3A
The Sheriff’s Office is pursuing the investigation, but
so far has not been able to
identify the truck and driver
responsible for the damage.
The only known witnesses to
the incident were unable to
provide any specific details
about what they saw; only
that the truck was white.
Attempts to search vehicle
registration records in Guthrie County for white pickup
trucks in the surrounding
area were unsuccessful, as
the pool of results would have
been too large to sift through
without any other information about the vehicle. For
now, the best course of action would be a tip from the
public.
The damaged area is part
of an 11-mile-long portion of
road being repaired, which
reaches from Highway 44 to
White Pole Road. The original cost of the project was
more than $4 million, and it
is uncertain how much repairing the damaged road
will add to the total, said
Guthrie County Engineer
Josh Sebern.
Mary Beidelman, treasurer, presented a donation from the
Women’s Service Organization to Bill Ridgley, CEO and
board chairman of Tori’s Angels Foundation. The latter pays
for all expenses not covered by insurance for families with
children who have life-threatening conditions. The need is
crucial this year as more families and children and being
aided than ever before.

Judge: Trump will
drag Grassley down
By DOUGLAS BURNS
In his nearly 60 years of
public service — having first
been elected to the Iowa Legislature in 1958 — U.S. Sen.
Charles Grassley has run on
tickets with many Republicans.
Now his name is on the ballot under Republican presidential candidate Donald
Trump, and that will prove
devastating for Grassley’s reelection hopes, Patty Judge,
the Democratic candidate for
the Senate seat, said in an interview with this newspaper
“I think Donald Trump is
a liability to Republicans up
and down the ticket,” Judge
said.
Judge, a former lieutenant
governor and Iowa secretary
of agriculture, says her name
recognition and statewide
support are crucial in a November match-up with Grassley, a six-term incumbent.
“We don’t have time between now and November for
people to know who someone is,” Judge said.
Judge, 72, said Grassley, 82,
has had a career in Congress
that has simply spanned too
much time.
“I think we should talk
about term limits,” Judge said.
She added, “I don’t think
all that tenure is working for
us at all.”
Judge’s chief line of attack
on Grassley is what she terms
his “obstruction” of President
Barack Obama’s nominee to
the Supreme Court, Merrick
Garland. Grassley has refused
to hold hearings on Garland
as chairman of the U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee.
Concerns about that decision cross party lines, Judge
said.
“Republicans are asking
him tough questions about
why are you
doing what
you’re doing,” Judge
said.
W h at ’s
more, Judge
said, Trump
is feeding the
obstruction- Patty
ist narrative Judge
in the Grassley campaign as the presumptive
GOP White House nominee
takes on an Hispanic judge
involved in Trump’s own legal battles.
In a Wall Street Journal
interview, Trump said U.S.
District Judge Gonzalo Curiel had “an absolute conflict” in presiding over civil
fraud lawsuits against Trump
University given that he was
“of Mexican heritage” and a
member of a Latino lawyers’
association.
According to The Journal,
Trump said the background
of the judge, who was born
in Indiana to Mexican immigrants, was relevant because of his campaign stance
against illegal immigration
and his pledge to seal the
southern U.S. border. “I’m
building a wall. It’s an inherent conflict of interest,”
Trump said.
Judge, in the local interview, said the comments
represent ethnic and racial
baiting — and that Grassley, as well as Trump, will
have to answer for them in
the election.

A Brand New
Vegetable
The newest vegetable to
arrive in the grocery stores is
Kalettes, a cross between kale
and brussels sprouts. This new
vegetable looks a little like a tiny
cabbage with heads that are
loose and composed of greenpurple leaves similar to kale.
Crossing kale with brussels
spouts is natural since both
are from the same group, which
also includes cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli. Kalettes
combine the best traits of each
of its parent vegetables with a
fusion of sweet and nutty. Look
for them at your local grocery
store so you can saute, grill or
enjoy them in a salad!
infamous as carriers of Lyme
disease, an illness that can be
transmitted from other infected
mammals to humans through
ticks. When ticks latch onto
humans they can then transmit the Lyme disease if they
are infected. When a tick is
found, remove it immediately
by using tweezers & grasp the
tick’s mouthparts where they
enter the skin. Pull the tick
away from the skin and clean
and disinfect the site of the bite.
The main outward sign of Lyme
disease is a bull’s-eye shaped
skin rash at the site of the bite.
Other symptoms include arthritis, facial paralysis, neurological & cardiac problems, &
general fatigue.

Ticks are active from March

Keeping Fresh
Produce Fresh
W hen buying fresh produce, avoid placing produce
in a sealed plastic bag on your
countertop. This slows ripening and may increase off-odors
and decay. Store tomatoes, onion, potatoes, melons, bananas,
pumpkins and winter squash
at room temperature, making
sure they are clean, dry, well
ventilated, and away from direct sunlight. Avacados, kiwi,
peaches, nectarines, pears, and
plums should be ripened on
the counter, then stored in the
refrigerator. Most other fresh
produce keeps best stored in
the refrigerator.
A DIFFICULT DECISION MADE EASIER
When Dwayne’s wife suddenly passed away last year, he found himself in an all too common
position of what to do next! Dwayne lived with his daughter and her family for some time and
then after some health complications, spent a few months in rehabilitation. When the time
came to be discharged, Dwayne and his family had to make a decision. He was still very much
independent, however, realized that he could no longer manage to live completely alone, but
did not want to burden his children either. His family heard about The Lakeside Village from
relatives, toured the community and determined this was the perfect fit for Dwayne.
Does Dwayne’s story sound similar to yours or someone you know?
The Lakeside Village, a 64-apartment Independent, Assisted Living and Memory Care Retirement Community
is located right on beautiful Lake Panorama, just north of Panora, Iowa. Whether you just need a little extra
help, like Dwayne, or are living with dementia and need Memory Care, The Lakeside Village can promote your
independence and privacy with its many options of retirement living. It’s perfect for a single person or married
couples, especially those requiring different levels of care. Our friendly and caring staff is here to make life easier
and a lot more exciting! There are many apartment styles and floor plans available to meet your preferences.
There is no buy-in, no monthly maintenance fees or lease agreements; just month to month rentals.
Most retirement communities categorize and charge residents according to levels of care. The Lakeside Village
customizes this approach to meet each resident’s personal and health needs through Individual Service Plans
(ISPs). This document is used to determine which Activities of Daily Living a resident needs assistance and
calculates charges based on the total minutes of assistance needed by the resident. Activities of Daily Living
include assistance with bathing, mobility or medication management, just to name a few. The benefit of an ISP is
that each resident pays only for what they need and nothing that they don’t.
If you or anyone you know is interested in
learning more about The Lakeside Village
or would like to schedule a tour of the
community, please call Angie Holloway at
641-755-3443 or 641-757-9800.

The N54 project makes use
of a new fabric that is incorporated underneath the concrete
overlay. In areas on the existing
roadway that require patching,
the fabric is placed on top of the
new patch directly before the
new concrete is placed by the
slipform paving machine. The
fabric interlayer material, as it
is known, is relatively new in
the United States, but has been
in use for some time in Western European countries. The
fabric resembles a very thick
felt and comes in large rolls,
similar to what one might see
in a carpet store.

Lunch items and root beer
floats from PJ’s Drive-In will be
on sale throughout the day. An
activity booth will target kids,
and the Historical Village’s 12
buildings will be open for viewing, according to the release.
Event organizers welcome a
free-will donation to support
arts efforts in the area.
The event will feature a variety of artists whose work will
be displayed and sold, including Hailey Gross, Sheri Heiland
and Jessica Plotz.
Hailey Gross
Hailey Gross, 18, grew up in
Stuart and has been an artist for
as long as she can remember.
“I’ve been painting coloring
books since I was 4,” she said
with a laugh.
Gross is a multimedia artist;
she does colored pencil drawings, acrylic and oil painting,
scratchboard and sculpture.
“I’m willing to try a little bit
of everything,” she said.
She works from her own ideas
but by commission as well. She
enjoys bright, bold pieces and
complimentary colors.
“Communicating a message
may be with bright textures
and colors,” she said.
She often incorporates cartoon or pop-culture aspects
into her work, typically shying away from realism, but she
will create “anything relevant
at the time,” Gross said.
She creates sculptures as
well; a recent piece is a footlong hot tamale made of hot
tamales.
Gross just graduated from
West Central Valley High School
and is attending the University of Northern Iowa this fall
to study art education and art
therapy.
She’s looking forward to the
chance to paint murals in children’s wings at a hospital in the
future and hopes to incorporate art therapy into her work.
“If there’s any way I could

thing or help them with what
they’re struggling with in life
using art, I’d love to do that,”
she said.
Sheri Heiland
Sheri Heiland has been a
potter for decades, first using a pottery kick wheel in
high school.
She grew up in Panora and
has spent time in Eastern Iowa
and Oklahoma, and after her
move to Guthrie Center about
eight years ago, she became
actively involved with arts efforts in the area as the Guthrie County Arts Council was
created.
She became truly interested
in pottery when she took a pottery-wheel class in Oklahoma.
“It was like I’d just learned
something magical,” she said.
Heiland also has done silversmithing in the past, but she
has concentrated on pottery
for years, making pots, bowls,
pitchers, jars, coffee mugs, goblets and more. She works exclusively with pottery wheels.
“Once you learn a technique of actually being able
to make something useful,
it’s very soothing to be able
to just make something, and
you know someone is going to
use that eventually to drink
their coffee out of or serve their
vegetables out of at dinner,”
she said.
In fact, when Heiland was

living in Eastern Iowa, her
daughter Kate visited a college friend in Council Bluffs
and was served food from one
of Heiland’s bowls.
Heiland, 63, has experimented quite a bit lately with new
methods in her pottery. She
has used pit firing for some
time — a process that involves
firing her pieces in a brick fire
pit outdoors and incorporating sawdust, seaweed, salt,
copper carbonate and more.
Now, she also is dabbling with
obvara firing, which incorporates a fermented liquid, and
aluminum foil saggar firing,
through which she uses ferric chloride, steel wool, salt,
twine and other additives to
add different colors to pieces.
“I’m stretching myself in my
old age,” Heiland said with a
laugh. “I’m trying new things
— it’s kinda fun.”
Jessica Plotz, a clothing designer and crafter, has an inhome workspace in Beaverdale that often includes her
children. Her work will be featured at Art in the Village in
Panora this Saturday.

Jessica Plotz
Jessica Plotz always knew
she liked clothes.
As a child, she’d draw out
clothing designs, even making
paper dolls and then crafting
clothing items for them.
“I’ve always had a love for
clothes,” she said.
She studied apparel design
and merchandising in school
but didn’t start making clothes
until she had her first daughter, Gianna Rose.
People began asking her
about her daughter’s clothes,
and Plotz’s clothing business,
Gia Rose, was born about six
years ago.
Plotz has an Etsy shop online
where she sells her designs;
she typically creates a fall and
spring collection, although she
also takes some custom orders.
She designs everything she
sells and sews the majority of
it, working with two additional
seamstresses when she is particularly busy.
Plotz, 30, now has three
children: Gianna, 6; Cora, 3;
and Daxton, 9 months. They
all wear her designs — and so
does their mother. The family
lives in Beaverdale, near Des
Moines.
More recently, Plotz expanded into women’s clothing as
well.
The designing is her favorite
part of the work, but she loves
sewing and meeting customers as well.
Plotz describes her designs
as modern and trendy, using
popular fabrics.
This is her first year being
involved with Art in the Village, although she knows other
artists who have participated
in the past. She’s looking forward to being a part of the mix.
“I like when it’s hand-made
items,” Plotz said. “That’s my
niche.”

park has been established
with eight trees donatead
by Ron Eike, owner of Wood
Duck Tree Farm, in memory
of his friend and longtime
Yale community member,
Eugene Kipp. Kipp’s family
gathred at the park, located directly east of Farmer’s
State Bank in Yale, last week.
They say they look forward
to having a place where they
can remember, Eugene, and
hope others will also consider adding to the park in the
memory of a loved one.

The Kipp family say they
hope others in the community
will add to the memorial park,
a lasting remembrance that
will enhance the community
to all those who pass through.
“We want it to be a community memorial park,” said
Kendall, who encourages others to add things to it.
“Maybe some benches,
some bushes,” he said.
The Kipp family plans to add
a sign or a stone that shares
what the park is about with
hopes to have it in place by
the town’s annual Fourth of
July celebration.
Paige Kipp, who shares a July
29 birthday with her grandpa,
said he wouldn’t want all this
fuss over him.
“He wouldn’t want this attention,” she said.
Still, she’s glad to have a
place that reminds her and
her family of him.
“Everybody liked grandpa,”
she said.
Her Canadian birthplace is a great
icebreaker, and Ware has enjoyed
return visits to the country throughout the years, but she doesn’t consider herself a Canadian, she said.
“But I am proud to be connected to the country,” she said. “It’s a
beautiful country.”
Her family now is in Newton,
New Jersey, where Ware spent the
last decade growing up on a hobby farm that has included cows
— Ware isn’t a fan of the bovine
beasts — as well as Boer and Saanen goats, silkie and Rhode Island
Red chickens, cats, a dog, sheep
and formerly a horse. Her mother
keeps a garden and orchard there,
and her father grows hay.
Ware’s parents are Sheila and
Mike Ware of Newton, New Jersey.
Mike is a chemical engineer, and
Sheila, who previously worked at
a bank and as a model, has been
a stay-at-home mom for all of
Ware’s life.
Ware has three siblings: Austin,
29; Kristin, almost 16; and Collin, 11.
She cycled through a variety of
career plans before settling on her
final choice. She’d considered pediatrics, forensic science and more.
She ultimately selected journalism because of her lifelong love of
reading and writing, when a lastminute college decision required
a switch in major.
“I was like, all right, life change,
let’s go,” she said. “I picked journalism because it’s something I’m
good at. I thought, ‘I’m not gonna
pick rocket science, because I just
can’t build a rocket.’”
Her boyfriend, Ethan Stoetzer,
also just graduated from Rowan
University and is working as a
reporter at the Mitchell County
Press, based in Osage, and living
in Mason City. They met first in a
class, when Stoetzer sardonically chronicled the entire class on
Twitter — Ware hated him then
— and later worked together at
Rowan University’s student newspaper. They ended up in the same
apartment complex, where Ware,
who also studied psychology, determined that proximity contributed to the inevitable — they began
dating and have been together for
about a year.
“I do not hate him anymore,”
she joked.

THE ROAD LESS TRAVELED
To Guthrie County: Thank
you, and I’ll see you around
By REBECCA MCKINSEY
It has happened several
times in the past few months.
Someone would approach
me on the street; in a school
or in the courthouse; at the
open window of my car.
“So, I hear you’re leaving.”
Before I’d ever made a formal announcement of any
sort, the word was out, so
to speak.
But that’s Guthrie County,
I’ve found.
As of this week, I’ll be leaving the Guthrie County coverage I’ve done for two years
and writing full-time at Herald Publishing Co.’s Carrollbased newspaper, the Daily Times Herald, where I’ve
spent about half my time
since I began working for
this company.
So, I’m not leaving — I’m
just shifting a bit. Ashley
Schable, editor of the Guthrie
Center Times, the Guthrie
County Vedette and the Lake
Panorama Times, and Caitlin
Ware, our newest reporter
who is living in Panora, will
continue to cover everything
going on in Guthrie County.
You’ll be in good hands.
And I won’t disappear.
Guthrie County’s businesses,
its art shows, its schools, its
restaurants, even its jail —
and most of all, its people —
have become a part of my life.
Carroll is just an hour away;
I’ll still be around.
When I started working in
Guthrie County two years ago,
I didn’t know what to expect.
Ware loves “The Great Gatsby,”
as well as the works of T.S. Eliot
and J.R.R. Tolkien. She played soccer before high school and then
focused on Irish dance, which she
hopes to continue. She plays piano
and guitar.
Ware will be living downtown in
Panora with her young cat, Flynn,
a tabby — although she’d love to
You overwhelmed me.

workings,
to those
who bonded with me
ov e r o u r
pets, to the Rebecca
strangers McKinsey
who waved
when passing me on the street, every
time — Guthrie County has
made me feel welcome.
I haven’t had the chance
to personally say goodbye to
everyone I’ve met or worked
with during the last two
years, and I apologize for
that. Know, though, that I
appreciate you all.
Thank you for welcoming
me into your homes, businesses, offices, classrooms,
patrol cars, hospital rooms
and lives.
Thank you for taking my
last-minute calls for interviews and for answering my
“urgent” emails about naming every single child in the
photos I took.
Thank you for reading and
reacting to my articles — even
when you didn’t like them.
Thank you for enveloping
an outsider who now feels
very much at home in your
county.

say he has some Bengal in him,
because it sounds more exotic,
she said. She adopted Flynn just
before leaving New Jersey, and he
made the 17-hour trek with her.
She’s enjoying Panora so far
and said many people have welcomed her.
“I can’t wait to see what else the
area has to offer,” she said.

June is
Great
Outdoors
Month
Guthrie County fair
retirees recognized
Iowa DNR
The 2016 summer recreation
season is just getting started
and there are plenty of days
ahead to enjoy the outdoors.
Governor Terry Branstad recently proclaimed June as Great
Outdoors Month, encouraging
all Iowans and visitors to take
the time to enjoy the state’s recreational opportunities, take in
its scenic beauty and make a
commitment to stewardship
of our natural resources.
Great Outdoors Month is designed to focus on the importance of simple outdoor activity and appreciation of Iowa’s
natural resources, by promoting
biking, swimming, hiking, paddling, fishing, hunting, boating, bird watching, camping and
general nature exploration of
our lakes, prairies, woodlands,
rivers and wetlands.
“Iowa has outstanding opportunities for safe, fun outdoor
recreation,” says DNR Director
Chuck Gipp, “and getting outdoors promotes good health and
helps create lasting memories
with friends and family.”
The economic impact of
outdoor recreation nationally
exceeds $650 billion in annual
expenditures, and in Iowa, it
supports an estimated 105,000
jobs.
Iowa’s parks, forests and
wildlife areas reflect the state’s
natural and cultural history
and attract millions of recreationists each year. Iowa’s state
parks alone expect to host more
than 900,000 overnight stays
and nearly 15 million day visits this year.
“Enjoyment of Iowa’s outdoors allows us to celebrate
the commitment of our state
to conserve and protect our air,
water, wildlife and lands,” says
Gipp, “and also contribute to
conservation efforts through
various licenses and fees. Iowans
understand, as well as anyone,
the direct relationship between
natural resource conservation
and the quality of life in our
state.”

outdoors, visit: www.iowadnr.

Guthrie County Fair President Grant Sheeder (center) presents plaques to Estel Sharon (left), a
longtime groundskeeper and maintenance person for the fairgrounds, and Betty Whitehead,
a longtime superintendent of the Art Hall, to recognize their years of service with the fair as
they retire. Sharon was involved with the fair for more than 10 years, and Whitehead for more
than 30 years. Other recent fair retirees who have been recognized or are soon to be recognized
include Bob Brummer (more than 10 years), Lance Hansen (more than 20 years), Jim Laughery
(more than 25 years), C.W. Thomas (more than 25 years) and Roger Tallman (more than 30
years).

Iowa DNR
Trees For Kids grant applications are now available for the fall

decreased energy production
needs and emissions.
Trees planted around schools
and in neighborhoods have also
shown to give youth increased
levels of concentration, lower
levels of aggression, lower levels
of obesity and fewer symptoms
of ADHD.
Communities are made more
livable by having a healthy, diverse tree canopy.

adults and youth.
This past spring, 20 schools
and/or communities received
more than $62,000 in Trees For
Kids grants to plant more than
900 trees around the state. Over
the life of these trees, they will
save more than 310,000 kilowatt
hours of electricity by shading
buildings and more than 68,000
therms, by slowing winds and
reducing building heat loss.
During their lifespan, the 900
trees planted this spring will help
reduce flooding by intercepting
more than 39.8 million gallons
of storm water, and will reduce
more than 5.3 million pounds

Not interested in sleeping
in a tent? Don’t have an RV?
How about trying an overnight
stay in a state park cabin this
summer?
Despite the busy summer
season, some state parks still
have cabins open for reservations -- even on the weekends.
Camping cabins only require
a two-day minimum reservation and camping cabins are
available at Green Valley, Honey Creek, Lake Darling, Prairie Rose, Stone and Waubonsie state parks, and Pleasant
Creek Recreation Area. Weekday
rentals are available in all of
these parks’ camping cabins,
and Pleasant Creek, Stone and
Waubonsie each have a number of summer weekends still
available.
Two yurts, circular tent-like
structures on platforms, are also
available for two-night stays at
McIntosh Woods State Park.
Family cabins require a Friday-to-Friday stay during the
summer season. Believe it or
not, there are family cabins
with weeks available that include one or both of the big
summer holidays -- July 4th
and Labor Day. They include
Lacey-Keosauqua, Nine Eagles
and Waubonsie state parks, and
the new cabins at Union Grove
State Park.

rentals, visit www.iowadnr.gov/
