Big Give projects were discussed atPetersburg Community Club meeting
www.albionnewsonline.com
The annual Boone County Big Give was discussed at the Petersburg Community Club meeting on Monday, Oct. 3, 2016.
Committee member Tina Stokes asked if the community club had a definite idea what their project would be. She said there will be 23 or-ganizations in every community in Boone County involved. She felt the event was awesome.
One previous suggestion had been new blue benches for the park. Town Board member Tina Henn noted the village will now receive a grant for those.
An additional suggestion was a shelter for the stage. The idea of a circuit work out area was again addressed, but secretary
Joelle Feeney felt she did not have adequate time to prepare a plan and get cost estimates in two weeks.
Eric Petsche does have a catalog with equipment prices she could look at.
Members asked how the circuit would work. It could incorporate the two miles around Petersburg for a run and have exercise stops at various locations. Some stops could be in the park.
Jim Leifeld felt it could be dangerous in portions of the park because of the golf course. But, there would be plenty of space in other areas where
several spots could be set up. Some liked the park idea better because it would be more
private. There would be no problem with equipment being stolen because it’s bolted down.
It is possible that the project could not be completed in one year.
Members decided this would be a project that could benefit Petersburg in the future.
Joelle will meet with the park boardStokes asked if the group had ever thought about an unre-
stricted endowment fund where the club would collect money. It is then allocated into a fund, but only interest would be used to purchase what is needed as the fund grows. If people are concerned about the long-term growth of Petersburg, this could be a good alternative.
Several felt there is a concern about how much money could be raised if there is no specified project.
Bash committee member Larry Temme felt the event went well with probably 1,400 to 1,500 attending with 1,000 arm bands handed out. There was excellent weather for the event.
The bikers were charged $15 for their meals at the Le-gion which also allowed entry to the Bash.
It was noted that a lot of people remained after the box-ing match to attend the grilling. That could be the reason that there was not enough meat for tasting later in the day.
Jim Leifeld has pulled the weeds at the welcome to Pe-tersburg sign at the junction of Highways 14/32. One of the lights will need to be fixed.
Regarding the welcome sign on Highway 32 at the east entry into Petersburg, Leifeld felt a new sign is needed and the Q125 one taken down.
An event sign was men-tioned.
Locating the old family friendly sign that was once there was suggested or a sign to go with the banners on Highway 14. Ideas would be appreciated.
If you would like an event on the Petersburg marque sign, contact Jeanne Stokes.
Remember electrical safetyduring busy harvest season
Harvest season is one of the busiest times of year for farmers—and can be one of the most dangerous.
Nebraska Public Power District urges farm operators to be aware of overhead power lines, keep farm equipment safely away from the lines, and know what to do if accidental contact is made with power lines.
A key fac tor for t hose harvesting crops is to look up and around when working in the fields this fall .Taking a few minutes to look for overhead electric lines may be life-saving time well spent. So what are some the dangers that farmers can encounter.
End rows are an area where farm equipment can accidentally become entangled in the power lines. Remaining inside the equipment until help arrives is critical to everyone’s safety. Those involved in harvesting work should understand any contact with power lines carries the potential of a serious or fatal accident. Electricity can arc to the equipment if it comes close to the line.
“It’s always best to call for help, and wait until the local electric utility arrives to make sure the line is de-energized,” said NPPD Transmission and Distribution Manager Joel Dagerman. If the power line is energized and you step outside, your body becomes the path and electrocution could happen. “Even if a power line is on the ground, there is still the potential for the area nearby to be energized unless there’s fire or imminent risk of fire.”
If you must exit the vehicle, the appropriate action is to jump – not step – with both feet hitting the ground at the same time. Jump clear, without touching the vehicle and ground at the same time, and continue to shuffle to safety, keeping both feet together as you leave the area.
Dagerman explained that voltage from a downed line tend to be like the ripples in a pond or
lake, the voltage diminishes the farther out it is from the source and at no time should anyone touch the equipment and the ground at the same time. Never should the operator simply step out of the vehicle — the person must jump clear.
NPPD urges farmers to take safety precautions before entering the f ields to begin harvest operations:
• Each day, review all farm activities and work practices that will take place around power lines and remind all workers to take precautions. Start each morning by planning the day’s work during a tailgate safety meeting. Know what jobs will happen near power lines, and have a plan to keep the assigned workers safe.
• Know the location of power lines, and when setting up the farm equipment, be at least 20 feet away from them. Contact your local power provider if you feel this distance cannot be achieved.
• Use care when raising augers or the bed of a grain truck. It can be difficult to estimate distance,
and sometimes a power line is closer than it looks. When moving large equipment or high loads near a power line, always use a spotter to make certain contact is not made with the line.
• Always adjust por table augers or elevators to their lowest possible level – under 14 feet – before moving or transporting them. Variables like wind, uneven ground, shifting weight, or other conditions can combine to create an unexpected result.
• Be aware of increased height when loading and transporting larger modern tractors with higher antennas.
• Never attempt to raise or move a power line to clear a path! If power lines near your property have sagged over time, call your utility to repair them.
• As in any outdoor work, be careful not to raise any equipment such as ladders, poles, or rods into power lines. Remember, non-metallic materials such as lumber, tree limbs, tires, ropes, and hay will conduct electricity depending on dampness and dust and dirt contamination.

LIFENET to improve heart attack outcomes for BCHC patients
As part of the American Heart Association’s Mission Lifeline pro-gram, Boone County Health Center (BCHC) has launched a new sys-tem called LIFENET to help improve heart attack patient outcomes.
The LIFENET System is the first web-based data network of its kind, offering emergency medical technicians (EMTs) and hospital teams the tools to work together to help improve clinical and opera-tional efficiencies.
“LIFENET is a program where EMTs can get the initial EKG while still in the field and transmit it directly to the hospital,” said Tara Leetch, emergency room supervisor and trauma coordinator at BCHC.
BCHC’s goal with the LIFENET System is to reduce time to treatment, known as door-to-balloon time (D2B) for patients in the BCHC service area who experience a dangerous type of heart attack known as STEMI (ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction). The American Heart Association estimates that nearly 400,000 people in the U.S. experience STEMI every year. Studies show that when D2B time is 90 minutes or less, patient outcomes significantly improve, and hospital stays are shorter , according to the Journal of the American College of Cardiology.
The “go-live” date for LIFENET at BCHC was Saturday, Oct. 1. “We are excited about this new capability. It will allow us to provide quicker treatment and ultimately a better outcome for our STEMI patients,” said Dr. Sean Kohl, doctor at BCHC.
Lots of beans were harvestedWith favorable weather, bean harvest was in full swing last week. Shown are the Schumacher brothers combining beans on the Helen Preusser farm north of town.
Community Engagement setat Boone Central on Oct. 18
An opportunity for Boone Central School patrons to listen to community priorities and expectations has been scheduled for Tuesday, Oct. 18 by the Boone Central Board of Education.
The public session will take place at 7 p.m. in the art room in the high school in Albion.
The community discussion will help formulate a vision of the future, and identify goals and strategies necessary to move the district forward to meet the chal-lenges of the 21st Century.
“We will be discussing the strengths, accomplishments, and challenges of our school district, the vision, and expectations for our schools and the goals and
objectives necessary to design our future,” said Boone Central Superintendent Cory Worrell.
Specific participants in the Community Engagement have been invited by the district for two reasons: to ensure that a broad cross-section of interests, backgrounds and perspectives are included, and to ensure that board members are able to hear from all participants in a purposeful and efficient manner.
“We are inviting staff mem-bers, parents, students, commu-nity leaders and other interested members of the public to work together with us -- so we can effectively plan for the future of our district and students,” said Mr. Worrell.
Any patron wishing to attend the session, or to submit written comments that will be considered as part of the process, is encour-aged to do so.
Marcia Herring of the Nebras-ka Association of School Boards will facilitate the community engagement process. For more information, visit the school web-site at http://www.boonecentral.esu7.org and look for Community Engagement.
Be Safe!

One Room, One Teacher program honors 13 rural teachers
Thirteen rural school teachers were honored during the Univer-sity of Nebraska at Kearney’s (UNK) One Room, One Teacher ceremony on Friday, Sept. 23, 2016 at UNK’s College of Educa-tion building.
The program started in 2012 to honor teachers who taught in one-room schools. More than $150,000 has been raised to help support student scholarships. To date, there have been 77 one-room teachers honored through this program.
“The One Room, One Teacher program honors the legacy of ru-ral schoolteachers in Nebraska,” said Dr. Sheryl Feinstein, dean of the University of Nebraska at Kearney College of Education.
“The one-room schoolteachers played a vital role in creating a firm foundation for education. Their students make our state and nation what it is today.”
Approximately 120 people attended the ceremony Friday, where the second annual student scholarships were awarded to Cynthia Biggs, an early child-hood education major from Minden; Kara Dauel, an el-ementary education major from Pleasanton; and Fayth Ryan, an elementary education major from Columbus.
For more information about the One Room, One Teacher program, contact the University of Nebraska Foundation at 308-698-5270 or visit the University
of Nebraska Foundation website at nufoundation.org.
2016 One Room, One Teach-er Honorees included:
Agnes Cumming Ericson who began teaching in the one-room school at District #26 in 1924 and taught through the Depression, keeping her family’s farm from foreclosure. Ericson also taught at Boone County, Dis-trict #31; Platte County, District #68; and in Monroe. She retired in 1969 from District #26, but continued to substitute teach on occasion.
Doris I. Wagner Horrocks taught for eight years in one-room schools in Madison and Antelope counties as well as at Bunker Hill District #10 where she attended school herself. She began teaching at just 17 years old. After retiring from teaching to be a wife and mother, Horrocks taught Sunday school for another 15 years.
Others honored were: Mad-eline Willard, Carrie Bogseth Gangwish, Marguerite Kaufman Gronewold, Neva C. Kanost, Dorothy Ericson Maurer, Leila Rhodes May, Betty Parker Zwie-ner Rodehorst, Lois N. Shuck, Roberta Maurer Sohrweid, L. Leone Sommerfeld, and Marvin Stone.

Make healthy choices to fight breast cancerAll women can make healthy
lifestyle choices to reduce their risk of breast cancer, according to the American Cancer Society.
October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month throughout the U.S.
Women are encouraged to make healthy choices such as eat-ing a healthy diet, getting regular physical activity, and reducing their alcohol intake.
These choices can help reduce their breast cancer risk. The American Cancer Society also encourages regular breast cancer screening to find breast cancer
early, when it is most likely to be curable.
A screening reminder, to re-mind you to talk to your doctor about your screening plan, is a free, easy way to help busy women remember to take care of themselves.
In many areas of the United States, events are held to raise re-search funds and increase aware-ness in the fight against breast cancer.
In 1984, Massachusetts can-cer survivor Margery “Margie” Gould Rath wanted to find a way to celebrate fellow cancer
survivors by raising funds for the American Cancer Society. Work-ing with a committee of fellow survivors and other volunteers, she created a “move-along-a-thon” called Making Strides Against Cancer to bring people together in an event to move the fight against cancer forward. The first event, held in Boston, drew 200 participants and instantly became an annual city tradition.
In 1993, the event officially became known as the American Cancer Society Making Strides Against Breast Cancer walk, at-tracting 5,000 walkers at events in Boston and several New Hamp-shire communities. Since then, Margie’s vision has inspired more than 11 million walkers to partici-pate in Making Strides events in nearly 300 communities across the country, raising more than $685 million to fight breast can-cer. Margie remained a dedicated Making Strides volunteer until she died from cancer in 2001.

Softball team gets winOn a night when softball seniors and parents were recognized,
Boone Central sent everyone home happy with a dominant 8-0 vic-tory over St. Paul at the Albion Sports Complex.
“It was a solid all-around performance by the ladies,” praised Cardinal Coach Danielle Amen. “When we play like that, with all as-pects of the game falling into place, it is something pretty specials.”
Indeed, as the Cardinals combined hitting, pitching and defense for one of their best efforts of the season.
Boone Central/Newman Grove grabbed the momentum early, scoring four runs in the bottom of the first inning. Consecutive singles by Brandy Thieman and Taylor Olnes started the spark, followed by back-to-back doubles from Riley Boyd and Keiley Tisthammer.
Ashtin Kaumans drove in Hanna Seier and Paige Ketteler, both of whom drew walks, to make it 6-0 in the second inning and Jaclyn Frey put the capper on the contest by belting a two-run home run in the fourth.
That was more than sophomore pitcher Keiley Tisthammer needed. Backed by solid defensive work (2 errors), Tisthammer blanked the Wildcats over five innings, allowing just 2 hits and striking out nine.
BC/NG blitzes C1 #10 OrdThere are big wins, and then
there are very big wins.Boone Cent ra l /Newman
Grove’s 43-22 victory over visit-ing Ord (4-2) in Class C1 District 6 play Friday night definitely fell into the “very big” category.
With the win, the Cardinals halted a three-game losing skid in impressive fashion and thrust themselves back into state playoff contention.
BC/NG (3-3) stunned Ord with a 50-yard lightning bolt touch-down in the waning seconds of the first half to take a 22-15 lead at intermission, then put the C1 #10 Chants away by completely dominating the third quarter.
The biggest play of the contest may well have been that long scoring strike. With the score tied at 15-15, the Ord secondary let Cardinal junior Cody Nelson slip deep and he gathered in a perfect rainbow from QB Dylan Gentrup with just 22 seconds remaining in the second quarter.
That came after the teams traded punches for most of the first 24 minutes.
While Ord’s first apparent touchdown - a 61-yard pass play from Jesse Ulrich to Garrett Bundy - was nullified by a block-in-the-back penalty, the Chants did strike first. Ulrich capped a 78-yard, 17-play drive with a one-yard TD plunge and also ran for the two-point conversion.
BC/NG responded on its en-suing possession, with Gentrup completing consecutive passes to Derek Stuhr (25 yards) and Nelson (45 yards), then scoring on a one-yard run. He matched Ulrich’s conversion run to tie the score.
That stalemate was short-lived, as Ulrich immediately passed 52 yards to Bundy for another six points. Ord booted the PAT to lead 15-7.
The Cardinals again had an answer, marching 65 yards 13 plays. Levi Kreuger scored the touchdown, taking a swing pass from Gentrup and racing around and through Chanticleers to com-plete a 26-yard scoring play. Will Frey’s PAT made it 15-15.
There was no back-and-forth in the third period, however. Boone Central/Newman Grove extended its seven-point halftime lead by driving 65 yards on the opening series of the second half. Kreuger bolted over from two yards out for the touchdown and Frey tacked on the PAT.
The Cardinal defense stuffed Ord’s Trevin Kruml on a fourth-down attempt on the following possession, giving BC/NG pos-session at its 41-yard line. It
took the Cards just three plays to reach the end zone again, Gentrup breaking free and streaking 45 yards with 5:10 remaining in the quarter. Frey again added the PAT.
Caden Ranslem recovered an Ulrich fumble four plays later and
Boone Central/Newman Grove put the final nails in the Ord cof-fin with a 53-yard scoring march that carried into the final period. Gentrup scored on the drive’s 11th play from five yards out and Frey made it 43-15 with the PAT.
BC golfers vie in Mid-StateWith Hannah Groth placing 13th among individual golfers, the
Boone Central Cardinals finished 6th in the Mid-State Conference girls golf championships at O’Neill Sept. 27
Groth’s 18-hole total of 106 led the Cards and Lyndsey Figgner (18th, 112) also finished in the top 20.
Mid-State Conference Team Scoring: 1- Battle Creek 391, 2- Norfolk Catholic 402, 3- Cedar Catholic 412, 4- O’Neill 471, 5- Wayne 479, 6- Boone Central 483, 7- Pierce 489, 8- Crofton (no team score)
Cardinal Results: Hannah Groth (106), Lyndsey Figgner (112), Ashley Mewhirter (125), April Johnson (140), Maggie Cleveland (143).
Boone Central traveled to Columbus Wednesday for the Scotus Invite, finishing 8th with a 481 team score. Pius X (365) was team champion ahead of GICC (391) and Sidney (398).
Hannah Groth was the 14th place medalist with an 18-hole score of 99. Other Cardinal scoring was: Lyndsey Figgner (115), Ashley Mewhirter (124), April Johnson (143).
Amanda Fay of GICC was the gold medalist with a 79.
As is so often the case with Coach Tom Dickey’s cross country competitors, the Boone Central/Newman Grove Cardinals are gather-ing steam for the final charge of the 2016 season.
BC/NG competed in Thursday’s West Holt Invite at Atkinson, toting home the girls’ team championship, as senior Christina Stopak placed second individually.
“We were waiting for the West Holt meet. The past couple years, this meet has provided a great opportunity for massive improve-ment, and that continued this year!” Dickey said. “We may not have improved in time, but we did improve in head-to-head racing. They competed! This change of attitude made the difference in each race.
“I especially appreciated the effort Autumn Farmer gave. I believe this was the first race she really competed. That’s a good sign for our future! We were all pretty surprised with the win. Ainsworth is a quality team, so to beat them here in late season is quite a coup.
“The guys ran without two varsity runners, but still did a really nice job. Thomas (Hosford) ran his best race this season. It’s just the right time! I’m really looking forward to a meet in which all of our team members are fairly healthy.
“I think we could be pretty good!”Stopak continued her outstanding senior campaign with a runner-
up effort in a personal best time of 20:15. Katie Goodwater (6th, 21:24) also placed in the top 10. Hosford (18:44) ran 13th in the boys’ race, in which BC/NG finished 8th in the team standings.
“The junior high kids ran their final races of the season and were very successful!” Dickey added.
Jonny Lindgren (5:56) won the junior high boys’ race and Jordan Stopak (6:58) placed 2nd in girls’ competition.
BC/NG runners break loose
Although Boone Central/New-man Grove’s varsity volleyball team came up short against three tough customers in action last week, Cardinal Coach Susan Rob-erts saw some encouraging signs.
“The varsity played three good matches, but we just can’t seem to find a way to win,” Roberts commented. “We are continu-ing to serve well and I felt our serve receive was much improved Thursday, compared to Tuesday night. We are still struggling with consistency.
“We are going to keep work-ing hard to improve our skills and hope to put it all together as we get into the final part of our season.”
Boone Central/Newman Grove (6-12) hosted Class C1 #10 Ord (17-3) Tuesday, dropping a 19-25, 15-25, 22-25 decision to the Chanticleers.
Ord was strong at the net, limit-ing BC/NG to just 11 kills in the three games. Jenna Kramer led the Cardinals with five kills and Karley Zoucha chipped in three. Nicole Woebbecke paced the de-
Wins eludeCard volleyers
fensive effort with nine digs and Tessa Hedlund made six digs.
In a triangular in Albion Thurs-day, Mid-State Conference foe Battle Creek (9-7) defeated BC/NG 25-21, 25-21. Kramer pound-ed seven kills in the contest and Woebbecke added four. Kelsey Thompson totaled 15 assists and eight digs, while Lauren Hedlund and Woebbecke each served two aces.
Boone Central/Newman Grove faced unbeaten Elgin/Pope John (17-0) in the nightcap, with the Wolfpack prevailing 25-23, 25-17. Kramer (8) and Woebbecke (6) again topped kills and Thomp-son led digs (11) and assists (17). Lauren Hedlund made seven digs for the Cards.

Punkin’ Chunkin’TM was dis-cussed. There is a possibility that the outhouse races may need to be taken out due to the fact that it takes quite a few people to work that event. However, the commit-tee may still try to make it work since it is an event that draws high school age kids which has always been an age bracket hard to draw.
Anyone with a suggestion for a new unusual event can contact any committee member: Doug and Michele Wright, Jeff Temme, Ken Schmitz, Scott and Kay Preister, Ron Coakes or Helen Baumgartner.
Joelle Feeney will update information to the community club Facebook. Ashley Thieman continues to update Punkin’ Chunkin’TM on Facebook.
Rae Valley Market owners Larry and Radene Temme stated that the switch over from Af-filiated Foods has begun, but the process could take from six months to a year.
Larry said, “I think it will be good for the customer and you will see the Shurfine brand re-placed by Best Choice.”
They encouraged customers who have a special Shurfine prod-uct that they like to let them know so they can be on the lookout for one of the same type.
Larry and Radene plan to do the price retagging in January and
he expects the customers will find more selections.
Larry said that the Petersburg store has twice the sales of the Newman Grove store even though Petersburg is smaller.
The Petersburg Industrial Development Corporation is pre-paring the site on Main Street for construction of a spec building for a business.
It was moved to hold the club nominations in November, with elections the same night.
DC Lynch carnival will have a 60th anniversary celebration as well as birthday celebrations in October. The public relations committee will send a gift.
The Christmas committee has narrowed the search for entertain-ment.
Eric Petsche Puttin’ in P-Town committee chairman will begin planning for the 2017 event. It might be scheduled January or February.
Due to adverse weather condi-tions, the crew to overlay Main Street has been delayed said Pe-tersburg Village Board chairman Allen Thorberg. He continued, “Now that harvest is here, it will be delayed until spring.”
A $1,000 Joyce Temme memo-rial was received by the club.

Boone Central FFA members compete in Area Range Judging
Recently, eight Boone Central FFA members traveled to Marquette, NE, to compete in their first range judging contest of the year.
Range judging is an FFA contest where students get the opportu-nity to learn about various plants native to their area. At Area Range Judging on Sept. 21, FFA members had to identify 24 plants, had three ecological sites, one range problem (map), and a 10-question test.
Area Range Judging contestants from Boone Central included (senior division) Brody Voichoski, Payton Beierman, Halie Andreasen and Evan Cumming; and (junior division) Emily Groeteke, Destiny Umbarger, Rebecca Dozler and McKenna Book.
Nearly 400 students competed that day, and although no Boone Central members placed, they had a productive day learning and improving skills for next year’s contest.
Hearing loss can beprevented on the farm
“Protecting one’s hearing is important to emphasize to farmers − especially this time of year,” said Dr. Dawson of Antelope Memorial Hospital. “Many different types of farm machinery produce excessive amounts of noise, including tractors, combines, grain dryers and radios in enclosed cab tractors.”
In addition, swine barns at feeding time contain extremely high noise levels, added Dr. Dawson. Regardless of the origin, farmers who are around high noise levels for long periods of time have a greater risk of hearing loss. If a farmer must raise his voice to be heard above the noise when he’s only three feet away from his co-worker, then the noise is probably loud enough to damage his hearing over time.
Hearing loss occurs when high noise levels cause damage to the auditory nerves. Once one’s hearing is damaged by noise ‒ there’s no treatment to correct it. That’s why it’s important to be proactive and protect the ears from high noise levels to begin with.
A variety of hearing protection devices can be used to protect hearing, depending on the noise level, said Dr. Dawson. These items include earplugs and earmuff-style hearing protectors. Disposable earplugs, however, should be thrown away as soon as they become dirty. To be noted − stuffing cotton into ear canals offers only minimal protection from noise at best.
Other tips to prevent hearing loss include:• turning the radio volume down or off in the tractor• closing all windows and doors on farm equipment• installing or repairing mufflers on farm equipment and • limiting the amount of time spent near high noise levels.For questions or if concerned about hearing loss, contact your
AMH health care provider at 877-887-5440.
