South Winn presents “You Could Die Laughing”

South Winn presents “You Could Die Laughing” on March 19, 20 & 21 at 7:00 p.m. in the high school auditorium.

Television mogul Jacque St. Yves invites eleven has been com-ics to his island lodge off the Ca-nadian coast to audition for the central role in his new TV series. It’s an opportunity to die for ... and that is someone’s intention! Shortly after arriving, the comics fi nd they are stranded along with the pilot of St. Yves’s private jet, the attractive fl ight attendant and the couple em-ployed as housekeeper and handy-man. That night, the housekeeper disappears during a violent thun-derstorm and her husband drops dead after ingesting candy that any of them could have sampled. Laughs and chills abound and the tension mounts until the star-tling truth emerges.

By Joyce MeyerIf you are looking for a great place to eat on St. Paddy’s Day

or any day, check out The Irish Shanti. The food is so good that it made the “15 restaurants in Iowa that will blow your mind” list. At 17455 Gunder Road by Elgin is where you can fi nd The Irish Shanti, the home of the Gunderburger. The famous Gunderburg-er was started in the late 1970’s as a means of putting Gunder on the map. The fi rst Gunderburgers were a smaller version of the one served today. The Gunderburger started growing in its size in the 1990’s and also gained notoriety. The Shanti also offers a variety of delicious menu items besides hamburgers. Fresh pork loins, turkey tenders, boiled cod (Poor Man’s Lobster) and rib-eye steaks are house favorites. They are also pleased to offer a variety of import beers and Guinness on tap.

On Sunday, March 15 they had their St. Paddy’s Party where Wind in the Barley performed. You could also have your corn beef dinner or order off the menu.

Review from the “15 restaurants in Iowa that will blow your mind” said “If you’re in the mood to eat a full pound of ground beef, head to the Irish Shanti, home of the Gunderburger. This massive sandwich can only be found in rural Iowa, but it’s worth the trip. Other favorites include the corned beef and cabbage and the fried pork tenderloin, but, trust me, the entire menu is loaded with some of the tastiest things you’ll ever stick in your mouth.” If you haven’t been there yet, put it on your bucket list of great food to enjoy.

Aase Haugen Senior Services Celebrates 100 years! 2015 is an auspicious year for the folks at Aase Haugen Senior Ser-vices, marking 100 years of care, comfort, compassion, healing and hope in our community thanks to the visionary dream of our founder, Aase Haugen, who left her 240 acre family farm for the purpose of build-ing a Home for seniors, where they wouldn’t have to go through the ag-ing process alone. To help celebrate, Aase Haugen Senior Services will be planning a series of events through-out the year, coinciding with historic dates from 1915. The Celebration Kick-off, Cornucopia of Concer-tinas was held Feb. 15th, the same day the doors opened at the original Aase Haugen Home, started the cel-ebrations which run through June

30th, 2015, the same day the original Home dedication was held. In March, Aase Haugen Senior Services pairs with the Decorah Lutheran Church in hosting a duo of Concerts by Michael and Bonnie Jorgensen, who perform the works of Theodora Cormontan; a Norwe-gian Composer and resident of Aase Haugen Home, with her sister, in the 1920’s. The fi rst performance is scheduled for March 28, at 7 pm, at Decorah Lutheran Church in the Sanctuary. Decorah Lutheran Church was Aase Haugen’s home church, and they sacrifi ced their pas-tor as the fi rst administrator to the home in 1915. The second concert will be held March 29 at 1:30 pm, also at the Dec-

orah Lutheran Church in the Sanctu-ary. Admission both days is free, sponsored by Aase Haugen Senior Services in celebration of the centen-nial. There will be a reception for the performers following the concerts, hosted by Decorah Lutheran church members. Many of Theodora’s works were re-discovered, having never been previously published, just a few years ago by the Jorgensen’s, who have made their mission to spread her musical gifts today. At the March concerts, in honor of the Aase Haugen Centennial, the Jor-gensen’s will even be premiering a few new pieces composed by Theo-dora that have never before been played in public! How wonderful that Theodora’s works can continue

to inspire and entertain almost 100 years later! Admission is free and all are welcome to attend. For more de-tails, contact Kate Klimesh, Business Development, Aase Haugen Senior Services, (563) 382-6521. Stop by Aase Haugen Homes front offi ce to pick up your raffl e tickets for three hand-made items: Night Sky Quilt by Carolyn Solberg, Liv-ing Silos pottery by Dean Schwarz, and Phelp’s Park original drawing by Doug Eckheart. There are also a selection of commemorative items available for purchase as well, in-cluding a hand-thrown pottery mug, copper or fi ne silver commemorative coin, and T-shirts in almost every

Newspapers piling up since 2009 while

State Historical Society decides how

to preserve themBy Lauren Mills, IowaWatch.orgBundled stacks of newspaper fi ll

shelves and overfl ow onto the fl oor in the archives of the State Histori-cal Society of Iowa in Des Moines. Traditionally, the papers would have been sent off for preservation, but a 2009 budget cut ended that 50-year practice.

Some historians and activists are anxious to have the papers preserved to ensure the so-called fi rst draft of Iowa history is available to future generations.

A bill proposed last year would have provided funds for the backlog, but the Iowa Department of Cultural Affairs, which oversees the historical society, put on the breaks. It rejected the proposed funding citing pending completion of a master planning pro-cess and assessment study to evalu-ate wh at it has in the archives and how to preserve those materials in the future.

The moves come as newspapers increasingly are adopting digital means of producing and publish-ing their work, and while historians and preservationists debate whether

Free grief support group sessions offered at Win-neshiek Medical CenterLosing a loved one brings on

a series of complex emotions. Confronting the pain and other aspects of grief with the support of others can be an effective way to deal with loss.

Winneshiek Medical Center Hospice is offering a free eight-week grief support group begin-ning Thursday, April 2 from 6:30 to 8:00 p.m. The sessions will be held in the Home Health and Hos-pice meeting room. The sessions are open to the public with prior registration.

“Grief is a natural and healthy reaction to loss; however, due to the emotional pain of death, peo-ple may ignore grief rather than embrace this necessary process,” said Karen Nielsen, LMSW, Win-neshiek Medical Center Social Worker and coordinator of the grief support program. “The grief support group is safe and confi -dential - it is an opportunity for people to share their experience with loss and to express their feel-ings, reactions and thoughts with others who truly understand what they are going through.”

Registration is required to par-ticipate in the grief support group. Call 563-387-3024 between 8 a.m. and 4 p.m. for more infor-mation or to register. Online reg-istration is available by visiting www.winmedical.org/grief-sup-port-group. There is no charge for the program.

By Joyce MeyerAmerica’s Farmers Grow Com-

munities is a program sponsored by the Monsanto Fund to improve lives of rural communities. The 2015 Fay-ette County winner is Gary Martin, a rural Waucoma farmer. Gary chose the Fayette County Food Shelf to receive this award for $2,500. Mon-santo District Sales Manager, Mark Ney, is shown presenting the award

to Gary and his wife Gladys, at a recent Pancake and Sausage Supper fundraiser at the Waucoma Events Center. David and Maxine Balk, rep-resenting the Waucoma area on the Food Shelf Board, were on hand to accept the award from the Martin’s. The Fayette County Fair Queen, Jensen Winter, was also on hand to help out at the fundraiser Saturday, March 7. The pancake and sausage

fundraiser raised $841 for the area pantry. The Fayette Food Shelter burned down over a year ago and had to rebuild. Farmers are invest-ing in rural America through the Monsanto Fund’s America’s Farm-ers Grow Communities. From local FFA chapters and 4-H clubs to fi re departments, community centers, food pantries and schools--1,324 ru-ral community nonprofi ts are reaping

the benefits of the $2,500 awards. Monsanto is a sustainable agricul-ture company, delivering products to farmers all over the country. They also give back to the farmers and their communities. $19.8 million has been awarded to rural communities since 2010. Lynch’s also helped with the all you can eat pancake and sausage sup-per fundraiser by providing sausage patties.

Dedicated Child Care Program Improves Business by Moving up on the Quality Rating System

CALMAR, – In January, CFS Catholic Preschool from Calmar stamped their child care business with a level 5 on the Quality Rat-ing System (QRS). CFS Catholic Preschool has been improving their quality while progressing through QRS levels.

In order for CFS Catholic Pre-school to continue moving up QRS levels, they had to better their child care business. QRS levels are rated

on a rising scale of one to fi ve stars. Each star is achieved by providers improving in the following areas: health & safety, environment, profes-sional development, family & com-munity partnerships, and leadership & administration. By taking part in QRS, providers show the community and families how dedicated they are to providing quality child care.

QRS is a voluntary program that is available to child care providers. A

monetary bonus is given to child care providers and centers that achieve QRS levels. Child Care Resource and Referral can assist those interested in applying. Local Child Care Con-sultants will be available to answer questions and assist providers in the application process. For more infor-mation, call 563-382-4447.

About Iowa Child Care Resource and Referral (CCR&R):

CCR&R is a program to support

quality child care throughout Iowa by assisting families in selecting child care providers who best meet the needs of a child and their family. CCR&R can offer on-site consulta-tion and trainings to providers, sup-port and information to parents, and inform businesses how to understand and improve employee child care concerns.

1933 Ends/1934 BeginsOn Friday, December 1, 1933,

Spillville Banker Roy Novak was in Decorah bright and early so that he was the fi rst one to appear at the County Treasurer’s Offi ce when it opened and the 1934 automobile licenses went on sale. As a result, Mr. Novak got License No. 1 for his 1933 4-door Plymouth Deluxe Se-dan. License fee was $10. License No. 2 went to Knute G. Sanden of Hesper for his 1922 Ford Sedan, with a license fee of $10. Richard Goettleman of Decorah got No. 3 for his 1922 Ford Touring, for $10. Clarence Melbostad of Dorchester got License No. 4 for his 1927 Essex Coach, for the fee of $14. No. 5 went to Knut Iverson of Decorah for his 1932 Chevrolet Coach and a cost of $16. Gilbert Lundby of Ridgeway paid $10 for License No. 6 on his 1923 Ford Touring car. No. 7 plate went to John G. Schissel of Ossian for his 1927 Ford Tudor, with the fee being $10. Raymond Sivesind of Decorah got License No. 8 for his 1926 Nash Sedan, for a cost of $22. License No. 9 went to Joe Beckman of Castalia for his 1930 Plymouth Sedan for $13. License No. 10 went on the 1926 Nash Sedan of Joseph Lee of Decorah for $15.

Between Friday, December 1, 1933 and the following Tuesday af-ternoon, 244 auto licenses were is-sued, as well as 27 truck licenses and one motorcycle license. George Frye was the motorcycle owner who paid $2.50 for his license. It was only a $5.00 charge if you had a new mo-torcycle. Drivers had until February 1, 1934 to get their licenses without a penalty.

The John Halverson Jr. Post of the American Legion of Calmar held their monthly meeting at their cabin on the banks of the Turkey River, near Fort Atkinson, in December of 1933. Commander Luzum and Ad-jutant Martinek handled a consider-able amount of business, including appointments to head various com-mittees. The committees and chair-man were: A. J. Kuhn - Aeronau-tics; Americanism - A. N. Huber; Jr. Baseball - F. J. Marron; Child Welfare and Boys Work - Robert Bjonerud; Community Service – T. M. Hillesland; Employment – Alf Schneberger; Graves Registration – J. E. Pavlovec; Highway Safety – Ed Rausch; Legislation – H. J. Schupa-nitz; Marksmanship – Joseph Mar-tinek; Publicity – H. D. Yager; Enter-tainment – Joseph Martinek.

Luther College in Decorah was looking forward to a visit from the famous Harlem Globetrotters Bas-ketball Team on Thursday, Decem-ber 14, 1933, when the Globetrot-ters would face off against Luther’s Norsemen. There had been a two-game series a year ago that resulted in one win for the Globetrotters and one for the Luther team. The antics of the Globetrotters were always en-tertaining and it would be a game an-ticipated by all.

In December of 1933, screen and

literary fans were on edge, await-ing the silver screen production of Sinclair Lewis’ immortal story of a “woman of today”, ANN VICKERS, at the Olympic Theatre in Calmar. This RKO Radio production starred Irene Dunne in the title role and Wal-ter Huston playing opposite her. This story dealt with the life of a social worker who has ideas more ad-vanced than most of her sex. The happiness she ultimately finds comes dramati-cally as her love is sentenced to prison. The 22-gown wardrobe of Ann Vickers’ character is the most elaborate of this season for a cinema star.

Starting December 14, 1933, Frana’s Store in Calmar advertised 50% off all toys priced over 10 cents! This was an ad directed to Christmas shoppers, and told readers that they were planning to discontinue their toy line after 1933, so it was a chance for bargain gifts while they lasted.

The Fort Atkinson Nursery adver-tised Christmas Trees for sale, priced from 20 cents to 50 cents.

A number of little folks (and some older ones) in Calmar had the fun of attending a party on Christmas Eve of 1933 planned by their elderly and respected friend, Joseph Mey-er. The children all gathered at the home of Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Frana and marched over to Mr. Meyer’s home at 7:00 p.m.

Upon their arrival, the children were surprised to fi nd a beautifully decorated table in the center of the room, with a lovely Christmas tree. Another table was heavily laden with gifts for the children. Santa Claus made a visit to the children before the pre-arranged program, all planned by Mr. Meyer, began. J. S. Doubek accompanied the children in singing “Silent Night, Holy Night” to start things off. The evenings pro-gram included contests such as: Po-litical Party – with the Republicans represented by Rose Mary Frana and Irene Dolan; the Socialists by Jean Korbel and Betty Ann Schindwein; the Prohibitionists by Mary Ann Schindwein and Rose Mary Houdek and the Democrats by Vernon Stens-eth and Norma Jean Frana. Dorothy Schindwein and Clarice Doubek were the judges and the candidates for each party had to appear before them. Winners were the Democrats or “cold water” candidates.

Next was a four round boxing contest between Junior Frana and Francis Dolan, with Fred Houdek and William Doubek as referees. The fi rst and second rounds were judged to be a draw, and after that the judges decided the boys had seen suffi cient action and stopped the contest.

There was also a beauty contest, with the winners being Irene Dolan and Mary Jean Schindwein; a “Gen-tleman Club” contest, with Dick Ko-rbel and Clarence Brom being the

contestants; contest for the best danc-ers featured Rose Mary Frana and Charine Doubek. Several games of 500 were played by Rita Frey, Clar-ence Brom, Dick Korbel and Clotiel Frana. After the program was con-cluded, the youngsters and oldsters all received gifts of candy, nuts and fruit from Mr. Meyer.

C h r i s t m a s Day at St. Aloy-sius Church in Calmar included a planned midnight mass, with other masses scheduled at 8:00 and 10:00

a.m. The School Choir was sched-uled to sing at the 8:00 a.m. Services, and the St. Aloysius (adult) choir would be featured at the other times. Songs that would be heard included, “Silent Night”, “Oh Holy Night”, “Adeste Fideles”. During Commu-nion, there would be a violin solo by Miss Ruth Sobolik of the song, “Ave Maria”.

Calmar Lutheran Church pre-sented a Cantata at 8:30 p.m. on New Year’s Eve of 1934. It was called “Star of Bethlehem”. There was no admission, but free-will donations were accepted for the choir funds. After the concert, refreshments were served and a social evening was held until 11:45 p.m. when there was a “watch night” service to welcome in the New Year. Everyone was wel-come. Norwegian services were held on New Year’s Day at 10:30 a.m.

The Iowa Motor Vehicle Depart-ment published a series of “SAFE DRIVING HINT” articles in 1933 and 1934, each focusing on a prob-lem issue. I got a chuckle out of the one called “Inattention” and thought the need for this reminder has not changed through the years. “If there is any place in the world where si-lence is really golden, it is in the driver’s seat. When the tongue wags, the mind lags. Driving a car is a full time job. It cannot safely be com-bined with sociability, “necking”, sight-seeing, window-shopping or day dreaming. Just remember that if you are traveling at even 30 miles an hour you will go 44 feet in that sin-gle second that your head is turned or that your mind lapses. If another car is approaching at the same speed, your speed is automatically doubled as far as your relative position with that other car is concerned. Keep your eyes on the road and your mind on your driving”. Of course, this was before the days of cell phones and texting, but even then they need-ed to remind us to be careful when we drive!

Next time, fi nd out about some unusual fi re calls in Calmar, how the Inwood and Riverside Park were do-ing during the Depression, an Ossian robbery, a government program in Spillville for unemployed teachers, and more about 1934.

A.L.I.C.E. Training held in FortOn Monday, February 23rd, 2015 the Fort Atkinson Fire Department

hosted an A.L.I.C.E. (Alert, Lockdown, Inform, Counter and Evacuation) Training at the Fort Atkinson Fire Department. Members of the Calmar, Fort Atkinson, Protivin, Saint Lucas, Waucoma Fire Departments – EMS, and Turkey Valley School staff attended the training.

A.L.I.C.E. is a national training program that instructs fi re fi ghters, law enforcement, EMS, adults, and children on how to work together for safer school, businesses, etc. in the event of an active shooter.

Tim Felton, the A.L.I.C.E. Instructor for the Winneshiek County Sheriff’s Offi ce, thanked the fi re fi ghters, EMS, and Turkey Valley staff for attending the training and working toward a safer community.

Camp of Livonia, Mich., with 52 years of driving without an acci-dent. Ronald McKnight of Bronx, N.Y., is next in line with 46 years of safe driving. Sixty-two others have logged at least 40 years without an accident.

UPS’s 102,000 drivers are among the safest on the roads, logging more than 3 billion miles a year and de-livering more than 4 billion packages safely.

Founded in 1907, UPS has a rich history of safety and training. The company issued its fi rst driver hand-book in 1917 and began recogniz-ing safe drivers in 1923. In 1928, UPS recognized its first five-year safe driver, Ray McCue, with UPS founder Jim Casey presenting him a gold and platinum watch. UPS formally established its safe driving honor program in 1928.

future preservation should abandon microfi lm for that digital world. Mi-crofilm long has been considered a preservation gold standard but it lacks the accessibility of digital ar-chives.

The backlog, which includes 1,600 to 1,700 bundles of newspa-pers, would cost roughly $255,000 to preserve on microfi lm. And pa-pers continue to pile up.

Offi cials with the historical so-ciety said the collection assessment will provide the cultural affairs de-partment with a complete picture of what exactly is in the state archive. It also will help offi cials plan for future preservation efforts for newspapers and other items in the collection such as photographs and manuscripts.

“It’s not an exaggeration to say that we have never done an assess-ment this detailed and this extensive across a hundred plus years of hold-ings,” Anthony Jahn, the state his-torical society’s archivist, said.

Free mammogram screenings offered to local women -

Application deadline March 20Winneshiek County Celebration of Life, in cooperation with Winneshiek

Medical Center and Gundersen Decorah Clinic, are making healthcare more available by offering mammogram screenings free of charge to under or un-insured women three times each year in April, June and November. The next free screening is Thursday, April 16 and deadline for applications is Friday, March 20.

Applying just became easier, with a new online application form found at WinneshiekCOL.com. Margaret Walter, WCCOL board president, says, “We hope by adding the convenience to complete the application online, we will be able to help more women who may not have the ability to apply through the paper form process.”

All free screenings are awarded based on fi nancial need. Printed forms of the simple, seven question applications are available at Margaret’s Clothing store, Winneshiek Medical Center, Gundersen Lutheran and as a download at WinneshiekCOL.com. Completed paper applications need to be dropped off at Margaret’s Clothing store in Decorah, or mailed to PO Box 314, Decorah, Iowa 52101 by Friday, March 20.

Funding for free mammogram screenings is through Winneshiek County Celebration of Life, a community effort to raise money for breast cancer awareness and prevention. Through business sponsorships, individual dona-tions and memorials, the Winneshiek County area has supported the health of their own mothers and daughters, nieces and sisters, friends and neighbors. Since 1998, Winneshiek County Celebration of Life helped nearly 1,000 lo-cal women obtain preventive screenings.

The American Cancer Society recommends women should begin yearly mammogram screenings at the age of 40 or earlier if there is a family history of breast cancer, or as recommended by their health care provider.

More information on Winneshiek County Celebration of Life, can be found at WinneshiekCOL.com, or on Facebook. For more information on free mammogram screenings, contact Margaret Walter at (563) 382-8208.

Advance orders only by March 22. Orders must be picked up between 2-3 p.m. Sat., March 28 at Chihak Hall, Spillville. Orders are limited.

NICC offers class on Managing Multiple Generations

Northeast Iowa Community College (NICC), through a Growing Small Business in Northeast Iowa grant, is offering the class “Managing Multiple Generations” in Decorah, in partnership with Winneshiek County Economic Development, Inc.

From Boomers to Gen Xers, Millennials and beyond, the generational differences in work ethic, attendance and dress practices, expectations for advancement and loyalty present complex challenges for today’s employers. Best practices are addressed for employers, particularly supervisors, trying to lead and manage today’s multi-generational workforce. In addition, par-ticipants learn the ways in which organizations are infl uenced by and must respond to the changing expectations of incoming generations of employees. This class, instructed by Dr. Celina Peerman, Ph.D., is scheduled on Tuesday, April 21 from 2:00 p.m. - 4:00 p.m. at T-Bocks Sports Bar & Grill, 206 W. Water Street, Decorah.

Dr. Celina Peerman holds a doctorate degree in Psychology with the dis-tinction Organizational Psychologist from Capella University and a Master of Arts degree from Upper Iowa University in Business Leadership, with a specialization in Human Resource Management. Her undergraduate degree, from the University of Dubuque, is in Psychology and International Studies. Dr. Peerman is a trainer and consultant with 20 plus years of experience, spe-cializing in organizational behavior and human resource management related topics. She also has expertise in senior leadership roles in human resources, organizational development and operations positions in both profi t and not-for-profi t businesses, where she was responsible for quality service, effective processes, staff diversity and achieving measurable results.

Growing Small Business in Northeast Iowa grant partners include the Northeast Iowa Business Network (NIBN), Northeast Iowa Small Busi-ness Development Center (SBDC) and Northeast Iowa Community College (NICC). This solution is partially funded by a $35,500 grant to the Win-neshiek County Development, Inc. from the United States Department of Agriculture Rural Development.

By Sharon Busch St. Patrick’s Day, also known as “the Day of the Festival of St. Pat-rick”, is the celebration of the most recognized patron saint of Ireland: St. Patrick. Every year on March 17, the world embraces Irish cultural tra-ditions that commemorate the death of St. Patrick. On St. Patrick’s Day it is customary to wear green clothing, shamrocks or an accessory; which is called the “wearing of the green”. St Patrick is said to have used the sham-rock, a three-leaved plant, to explain the Holy Trinity to the pagan Irish. Green shamrocks, clothes and ac-cessories have been worn on St Pat-rick’s Day since at least the 1680’s. Beginning around the 1640’s, the color green has been customarily as-sociated with Ireland; for example the green harp fl ag was used by the Irish Catholic Confederation. In the 1790’s, green became associated with Irish nationalism when it was used by the United Irishmen. This was a republican organization, led by Protestants with many Catholic members, who launched a rebellion in 1798 against British rule. The phrase “wearing of the green” comes from a song of the same name, lead-ing to passionate United Irishmen supporters being persecuted for wearing green. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries and into the 21st century, the color green and its as-sociation with Saint Patrick’s Day, has spread throughout the world. The following recipes are from all-recipes.

Amazingly Easy Irish Soda Bread

4 cups all-purpose fl our4 tablespoons white sugar1 teaspoon baking soda

1 tablespoon baking powder½ teaspoon salt

½ cup margarine, softened1 cup buttermilk

1 egg¼ cup butter, melted

¼ cup buttermilk

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease a large baking sheet. In a large bowl, mix together fl our, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, salt and margarine. Stir in 1 cup of buttermilk and egg. Turn dough out onto a lightly floured surface and knead slightly. Form dough into a round and place on prepared bak-ing sheet. In a small bowl, combine melted butter with 1/4 cup butter-milk; brush loaf with this mixture. Use a sharp knife to cut an ‘X’ into the top of the loaf. Bake in preheat-ed oven until a toothpick inserted into the center of the loaf comes out clean, 45 to 50 minutes. Check for doneness after 30 minutes. You may continue to brush the loaf with the butter mixture while it bakes.

Guinness® Corned Beef

4 pounds corned beef brisket1 cup brown sugar

1 (12 fl uid ounce) can or bottle Irish stout beer (e.g. Guinness®)

Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Rinse the beef completely and pat dry. Place the brisket on rack in a roasting pan or Dutch oven. Rub the brown sugar on the corned beef to coat entire beef, including the bot-tom. Pour the bottle of stout beer around, and gently over the beef to wet the sugar. Cover, and place in preheated oven. Bake for 2 1/2 hours. Allow to rest 5 minutes be-fore slicing.

Beef and Irish Stout Stew

2 pounds lean beef stew meat, cut into 1-inch cubes

3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided2 tablespoons all-purpose fl our

1 pinch salt and ground black pep-per to taste

1 pinch cayenne pepper2 large onions, chopped1 clove garlic, crushed

2 tablespoons tomato paste

1 1/2 cups Irish stout beer (such as Guinness®)

2 cups chopped carrot1 sprig fresh thyme

1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley for garnish

Toss the beef cubes with 1 table-spoon of vegetable oil. In a separate bowl, stir together the flour, salt, pepper, and cayenne pepper. Dredge the beef in this to coat. Heat the re-maining oil in a deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the beef, and brown on all sides. Add the onions, and garlic. Stir the toma-to paste into a small amount of water to dilute; pour into the pan and stir to blend. Reduce the heat to medium, cover, and cook for 5 minutes. Pour 1/2 cup of the beer into the pan, and as it begins to boil, scrape any bits of food from the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. This adds a lot of fl avor to the broth. Pour in the rest of the beer, and add the carrots and thyme. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer for 2 to 3 hours, stirring occasionally. Taste and adjust sea-soning before serving. Garnish with chopped parsley.

Irish Potato Candy

1/4 cup butter, softened1/2 (8 ounce) package cream cheese

1 teaspoon vanilla extract4 cups confectioners’ sugar2 1/2 cups fl aked coconut

1 tablespoon ground cinnamon

In a medium bowl, beat the but-ter and cream cheese together until smooth. Add the vanilla and con-fectioners’ sugar; beat until smooth. Using your hands if necessary, mix in the coconut. Roll into balls or po-tato shapes, and roll in the cinnamon. Place onto a cookie sheet and chill to set. If desired, roll potatoes in cinna-mon again for darker color.

Till next time, Happy St. Patrick’s Day.

Safety AwardsWiltgen Construction Company, Calmar, employees have been honored

for working the entire year of 2014 without a lost-time accident and for operating Fourteen Consecutive Years Without a Lost-time Accident.

The employees operating in Wiltgen Portable Plant No. 1 were recog-nized at the Iowa Limestone Producers Association 70th Annual Conven-tion recently held in Iowa City.

The Iowa Limestone Producers Association sponsors a safety contest each year to give recognition to those member companies and employ-ees who strive, as part of their every day activities, to work safely. This increased emphasis on safety has been a major factor in changing quarry work from a dangerous occupation, to where it is one of the safest places to be employed in Iowa.

Calmar Courier Tuesday, March 17, 2015 7NewsRain Barrel Workshopat Lake Meyer Park

Did you know that 50% of

the pollution in our lakes and rivers is washed in by storm water? Or that water use can increase by 40-50% during the summer months, mostly because of outdoor water use? Help slow down storm water runoff and reduce your water consumption by in-stalling a rain barrel!

Join Winneshiek County Conservation in a hands-on workshop to construct your own 55-gallon rain barrel on Sunday, March 29 at 2:00 p.m. at Lake Meyer Park. All materials and tools will be provided, as will information on how to collect and use runoff rain water.

Please make sure you are able to transport your barrel after the work-shop.

Winneshiek Medical Center Offers FreeDiabetes Screen at Diabetes Alert Day March 24

Winneshiek Medical Center will offer a free blood glucose (blood sugar) check on Tuesday, March 24 at its seventh annual Diabetes Alert Day screening, a one-day “wake-up call” asking the public to take the test to fi nd out if they are at risk for developing type 2 diabetes. Open to all members of the community, the screening aims to promote diabe-tes awareness and prevention. The screening will be offered from 7:00 to 9:30 am in Winneshiek Medical Center’s Main Entrance lobby. For an accurate glucose reading, fasting is preferred.

Along with a free blood glucose reading, the Winneshiek Medical Center diabetes education team will offer blood pressure checks, Body Mass Index (BMI) measurements, take height, weight and waist circum-ference measurements, guide partici-

pants through the diabetes education experience and offer support to those with further questions or needs. Jean Irvin, RN and diabetes educator says, “Diabetes can be prevented or man-aged when patients begin to include healthy food choices and regular physical activity in their daily lives. The diabetes education program at Winneshiek Medical Center helps patients make positive decisions for their health and supports them as they face the challenges of diabetes.”

Winneshiek Medical Center will host the screening in recognition of the American Diabetes Associa-tion’s (ADA) 27th annual American Diabetes Alert Day. On this day, the ADA urges all Americans to assess their risk for type 2 diabetes, which has become the greatest public health crisis of the next quarter century.

Unfortunately, people with type

2 diabetes can live for years with-out realizing they have the disease. The ADA estimates that this is the case for over 8.1 million (1 out of 4) Americans today. Another 86 mil-lion (9 out of 10) Americans have pre-diabetes, which places them at increased risk for developing type 2 diabetes.

People with a high risk for type 2 diabetes are those who are over-weight, sedentary, over the age of 45 and have a family history of diabetes. African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans and Pacifi c Islanders are also at an in-creased risk, as are women who have had babies weighing more than nine pounds at birth.

Winneshiek Medical Center urges community members to take advan-tage of this free opportunity to learn more about diabetes and the steps

to prevent it. For more information about the screening, please call Win-neshiek Medical Center at 563-382-2911 or visit www.winmedical.org/classes-and-events.

Fodors Names Vesterheim Oneof Fifteen Best Small-Town Museums

Vesterheim, the national Norwegian-American museum and heritage cen-ter, was named one of “15 Best Small-Town Museums in the U.S.” by the world-respected travel guide, Fodors.

According to Fodors, “All too often, the museums that get all the attention are those in big cities with blockbuster collections, like MoMA in New York City, the Field Museum in Chicago, and the Getty Museum in Los Ange-les. But hidden away in America’s small towns are equally fascinating, more unique museums that are home to coveted works of art and historical items.”

Other museums on the list include The Huntington in San Marion, Califor-nia, the Norman Rockwell Museum in Stockbridge, Massachusetts, and the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, New York. “We’re excited to be listed among such impressive company,” said Charlie Langton, Vesterheim Editor. “The recognition is quite an honor,” he continued, “’USA Today’ has already named Vesterheim one of ten great places in the nation to admire American folk art and with this new recognition perhaps more people will discover what a treasure Decorah really is.”

Fodors, a division of Random House, is one of the world’s largest publish-ers of English language travel and tourism information and one of the fi rst producers of modern travel guidebooks.

Through 24,000 objects and 12 historic buildings, Vesterheim, the na-tional Norwegian-American museum and heritage center in Decorah, shares the most comprehensive collection of Norwegian-American artifacts in the world. This treasure is also a center for folk-art education, offering a wide variety of classes in authentic Norwegian folk art every year. For more infor-mation on the museum’s exhibitions, classes, events, membership opportuni-ties, and ways to donate, check Vesterheim’s website at vesterheim.org, call (563) 382-9681, or write to Vesterheim Norwegian-American Museum, 502 W.

Winneshiek County Board of Supervisors201 W. Main StreetDecorah, lA 52101Mr. Chairman, Vice-Chairman and

Gentleman of the Board:Please accept this letter on my be-

half and to give my support in nam-ing Deputy Tim Felton as Sheriff of Winneshiek County. I have been made aware, through my continual contacts in your county, of Sheriff Bohr’s retire-ment and believe that naming Deputy Felton would be the best decision your board can make for Winneshiek County.

I served from 1999 through 2003 as a Reserve Offi cer/Deputy for both the Winneshiek County Sheriff’s Of-fi ce and Decorah Police Departments. I worked under the leadership of both Sheriff Bohr and Sheriff Aschbacher during those times. During my time as a reserve I worked along with Deputy Felton more than any other person within that office. I was fortunate enough to learn, train and excel in that fi eld all while under Deputy Felton’s supervision.

Since leaving the State of Iowa in 2003 I held a position in law enforce-ment and public safety agencies in the State of Colorado. I attribute most of my success to the education which Deputy Felton provided me, and of which I continue to use to this day in my current profession. Deputy Fel-ton’s ethics, thoroughness and ability to successfully uphold the law and the expectations of that community are beyond reproach. In my observations and collaborations with many of the law enforcement agencies at all levels of government in the country, I have found very few men or women that were able to do their jobs in this pro-fession as well as Deputy Felton has.

Deputy Felton is committed to the people of Winneshiek County, more so of any other person I know. I am sure you all are aware of Deputy Fel-ton’s great work within the county, not only with the Sheriffs Offi ce and the D.A.R.E. program, but I know his devote service to the many businesses, civic organizations and government agencies within the county, to include Luther College can be recognized as well. Deputy Felton has always served Winneshiek County with nothing but stellar performance with all stake-

holders and provided excellent civil service. Even when he was not serv-ing in his official capacity with the Sheriffs Offi ce, Tim Felton was, and is still, committed to the betterment of all. Outside of the law enforcement arena, his abilities to communicate, work with, and help people is an inher-ent part of his person. You cannot fi nd a more positive, personable or caring person for those he is around. The Of-fi ce of Sheriff is more than just a law enforcement position, the Sheriff must be able to work with all facets of the community in all areas and when the Sheriff is in an environment, not as a peace offi cer but as a person, he or she must have a certain quality, abil-ity and devotion to making society and the people he or she interacts with, bet-ter. Tim Felton is that person. Without a doubt, Tim Felton possesses and maintains all requirements and abili-ties of a Sheriff and his accomplish-ments far surpass the expectations of the Offi ce. He is without a doubt the sole person I can put my recommen-dation and all beliefs into being your next Sheriff.

As a former resident and member of the law enforcement community of Winneshiek County as well as a proud graduate of Luther College, I am respectfully asking your board to give Deputy Felton any and all consideration to be the next Sheriff of Winneshiek County. Gentleman, in all honestly anyone else would be second best and that is not good enough for such a great community. If, and when I hope you do chose Deputy Felton to take over, after Sheriff Bohr has retired, I know he will maintain that offi ce with distinc-tion, professionalism and with the highest level of ethics.

I am available at any time to dis-cuss any questions or be involved in any discussions you have in regard to Deputy Tim Felton. I thank each one of you for taking the time to con-sider what was provided in this let-ter, and believe that Tim is the person for whom you and your community seek. Respectfully Submitted,Mark R.

“Wartburg tends to have a lot of 3A and 4A schools. It gives our ath-letes a chance to compete against some pretty competitive kids, noted Head Coach Scott Conway. “We had some outstanding performances for our fi rst meet. I noticed a great deal of growth from our sophomores from last year. Many of them started out this year where they left off last year. Our juniors and seniors provided some big time performances and fi n-ished high in the results.”

“I was impressed with how com-petitive our freshmen were. It can be intimidating going into a meet of this caliber and maintain composure. They all went out and did the best they could, which is all we can ask from them,” ended Conway.
