Freshmen exposed to real-life scenerios By COLE BENZ
Record Editor Freshmen Impact is a powerful, one-day event that shows young high schoolers the dangers of drinking, texting while driving, and other peerpressured situations they might encounter as they
navigate through their high school years. On Wednesday, Sept. 14, freshmen from Faith, Macintosh, Lemmon, Bison, Dupree, Newell, Harding County, New England, Scranton, Hettinger, Mott, Timber Lake, and Grant County— about 250-300 students according to Hettinger
guidance counselor Darin Seamands—attended the event. Started by a state trooper and a deputy in South Dakota some time ago, an organization named C.O.R.E. (Community Organized Resources in Educating youth) operates the event throughout
the state. And for the past three years, Lemmon has hosted an event and welcomed other area schools to attend. Northern Plains Coordinator, and state trooper, Chris Goldsmith said the first event featured five schools, now that number is 14.
Goldsmith said this event is different from other awareness-based events in how life like they make it. “We try to make it as realistic as we possibly can,” Goldsmith said. The morning features seven different sessions that include, among oth-
ers, behind the wheel driving with alcohol-impaired like googles, suicide prevention and team building exercises—25 minutes for each session. Following a lunch, the students listen to speaker. This year Keith Johnson, a

IN BRIEF
Residents raise funds for Alzheimer’s walk Team Captain Lisa Beckman announced that the Naomi’s Memory Walkers Team will again be participating in the Alzheimer’s Association Walk to End Alzheimer’s® in Bismarck, North Dakota on September 24, 2016 at Shiloh Christian School. The Team will be joining over 200 participants from across North Dakota in the 3-mile Walk to End Alzheimer’s in support of the Alzheimer’s Association. This is the second year that the Naomi’s Memory Walkers Team has participated in the Bismarck Walk to End Alzheimers. Last year the Team received the Top Fundraising Team Award for raising $5,793.72 and Lisa Beckman received the Top Fundraising Individual Award for personally raising $3,134.65 of the team total. The Naomi’s Memory Walkers Team consists of family and friends who are walking in memory of Naomi Ullman, lifelong Adams County resident, who passed away on August 18, 2014 from Alzheimer’s Disease. The 2016 team members are Lisa Ullman Beckman, Kenny Beckman, Cassy Beckman, Madison Beckman, Sandi Ullman Lewis, Roger Ullman, Cheryl Ullman Stockton, Larry Differding, Kayla Powell, Mary Frieze Henderson, Olivia Henderson, and Travis Collins. Naomi’s daughter, Lisa Beckman, wants to bring awareness and help raise funds for research so hopefully someday others won’t have to watch their loved ones suffer with Alzheimer’s Disease. The Team will be holding a Bake Sale on Friday, September 23rd as their final fundraising effort before the Walk. The Bake Sale will be held at the Fun Bar (formerly the Woodfire Grill) at 600 2nd Avenue South in Hettinger from 9:00 a.m. until Noon, or everything is gone! Anyone willing to contribute baked goods for this cause can drop them off that morning at the Fun Bar or contact Lisa Beckman to arrange pickup. The Team looks forward to seeing you all there buying your goodies for the weekend. To support Naomi’s Memory Walkers, you can drop donations in any of the collection jars at local businesses, contact Lisa Beckman or Cassy Beckman, or visit the Team’s website at http://act.alz.org/goto/NMW to make an online donation or join the Team!
Thank You! A special thank you to the Hettinger Public School and to all those who had a part in the Hall of Fame induction
FULFILLING THE DREAM You want to use WHO?
Proud workers in or beside their early autos, demonstrate the gently rounded curve of the citizen-created roadway on a Hettinger section of the Yellowstone Trail in 1914. Travelers now had a good road from Minneapolis to Seattle. Editor’s note: This is the second of five articles tracing the emergence of the Yellowstone Trail through Adams County and Hettinger, ND, in an effort to increase awareness of this historical roadway and to focus on the important part that Hettinger and Adams County, ND, played in that effort. In 1914, after two years of meeting, thinking, reasoning and planning, the Yellowstone Trail Association was closer to implementing J. W. Parmley’s dream of an automobile roadway from Minneapolis, MN, through southwestern North Dakota and on to Yellowstone National Park. Having gathered a group of men he felt were influential in their small communities, three of whom were from Hettinger, ND (ACR article #1, 9.16.16), Parmley led the Association in locating a route and in trying to persuade county boards and state highway commissions of the need “to create one long, connected road through counties instead of supporting roads that went nowhere,” but at that time, neither the Federal government nor state govern-
ments were interested in road construction. Members of the Association realized that if the road was going to get built, it would have to be built a different way. Through the work of Association members and with the help of local citizens, Trail Days were organized to “excite and encourage” people of small towns on the route to take charge of building the Yellowstone Trail. For Trail Days, local citizens brought their own teams of horses and mules, and their own picks, shovels, discs, harrows or road drags. Out of old lumber, old railroad ties, old binder frames, old haystack frames or anything else handy, they improvised other needed equipment. In a letter to all state, county and village representatives of the Association, to all county and township officials, and to the 120 newspapers along the trail, Yellowstone Trail Association secretary/treasurer O. T. Peterson from Hettinger described what should happen on the first Yellowstone Trail Day, May 22, 1914:
Let there be a squad of men on every mile of the entire eleven hundred miles of the trail. Let the trail boosters of each town see to it that some one man is responsible for the work to be done on each mile tributary to that town. Let that man get all the help he can. Let him prepare his mile for Trail Day by having it plowed, if need be, graded, if need be. Let the men be furnished an abundance of cool fresh water. Let there be an equal amount of good fellowship and rejoicing. Let your photographer be on hand to take pictures of the work. Let all business houses be closed this day. In the evening, let there be patriotic music by bands or choirs. Let the school children and the multitudes sing. Let high school children read their essays on good roads. Let the public spirited men speak to the assembled people. Still no maps for it, still no markers on it, but in the first two years of work on the land, 800 miles of roadway from Minneapolis to Yellowstone National Park were citizen-graded. The dream was being fulfilled.

WRHS Foundation
When you think of the Foundation at West River Health Services, you probably think of an organization that wants you to consider giving them a financial gift to help improve our local healthcare services. You are right. And we are extremely grateful for all of the over $1,000,000 in gifts we have received over the past two years. But we have also started coming through with giving some of your gifts back to our area local communities. In this case, “paying it forward” so to speak, to our local youth. A recent example of our giving ability is shown through our distribution D of net funds from our an9TH nual “Fun Run & Walk.” The WRHS Foundation has orchestrated this 4th of July Y event for 28 straight years. Historically, we have netted from $500 to $2,000 per year from runner/walker registration fees and sponsorships. And we’ve mainly placed these net profits back into West River Health Services and Western Horizons Living Centers – almost exclusively toward health and wellness projects at our Rehabilitation & Wellness Center. In the past two years, we have added a sensational raffle ticket program and more sponsors, netting us almost $3,800 in 2015 and over $5,700 in 2016! Although, we have still placed almost half of these funds toward health and wellness programs at WRHS and WHLC (this year alone, we gave $800 to our Partners In Health Program and $500 each to our Rehab Center, West River Ambulance, Western Horizons Care Center and Western Horizons Assisted Living Center), we have also started giving over half of our net proceeds back to our local community – mainly to kids. For example, last year and this year, we made $600 and $500 gifts respectively to the Hettinger Food Backpack Program. This program,
coordinated through Feeding America out of Fargo, makes sure that any of our area youth who need extra food, receive it for the weekends. Kathy Jahner, Christi Schmitz and Joy Laufer are leading the charge with the Hettinger Food Backpack Program. Every student in the Hettinger Public School system from pre-school through 12th grade, receives an application for their parents to complete at the beginning of the school year. Not returning completed applications to the school has been the main hindrance of more children not receiving these food backpacks in their lockers every Friday. Every part of this program is handled very privately. The main idea is to provide our local children with enough to eat on the weekends. The state has reported that nearly 160 children in Adams County might need such a program, but still only 2040 applications are received each year. In keeping with our “Fun Run & Walk” mission of giving funds to health and wellness activities, our committee decided to give $1,500 to the Hettinger Park Board for next summer’s youth baseball and girls softball programs. In addition, WRHS has offered to instruct local youth on sunscreen protection and possibly even acquire sunscreen dispensers for the dugouts. The Hettinger Park Board mentioned they might have a summer program registration meeting at the onset of their summer programs, which might be the perfect time for WRHS sunscreen instruction. WRHS suggested the $1,500 in funds be utilized for hats and visors, or maybe even helmets, for the children. However, if the leaders of the programs believe the funds could be better utilized in a better way, that’s up to them. In addition, the Foundation gave $500 to the Hettinger Park Board summer swimming program. It was suggested that swim caps with TEAM USA on the
side (didn’t you all just see the Olympics?!). Or maybe the funds could be used to help kids who can’t afford swimming lessons or open swimming passes. But, if the leaders of the swimming program believe there might be a better use of the funds, that’s all good. Again, we would like them to consider a prevention orientation with WRHS personnel regarding sunscreen protection for their youth swimmers. The Fun Run & Walk Committee designated $227 for the ice and water provided for the local Little League Baseball Tournament this past July. On that 100 degree day in July, new WRHS CEO Matt Shahan suggested that we provide the ice and water in huge coolers just outside each of the four dugouts for both days of the tournament. We did just that! The young 10-12 year olds appreciated the cool water, as did their parents. Lastly, the WRHS Foundation also gave $200 each of the last two years to the new home of the Fun Run & Walk – The Granary. This unbelievable volunteer-led restoration of the old granary building, located down by Mirror Lake Park, has been a huge asset for numerous community events. In the event of inclement weather, we can get our runners and walkers indoors. Plus, it is a terrific place for us to register our participants and keep all of our paperwork out of the weather. Thank you to the Hettinger Park Board and the many volunteers who stepped up and created such a useful, large meeting area for our community. There’s no doubt that over the last two years, the Foundation at West River Health Services has made a concerted effort to reach out to our area communities. We believe that as our community supports us, we must also support them back Until next time, onward! Every Patient. Every Day. No Matter What. West River Health Services. We’re here for you.

Grand River Roundup NEWS By BETTY OLSON
We got just under a quarter of an inch of rain from two little showers on Thursday and Friday, but hey, we’ll take anything we can get! Olson Creek and Middle Creek have dried up and the Big Nasty and South Grand are getting pretty low. Trees are starting to change color and fall arrives this week. Thankfully we haven’t had any snow like they’ve had in Montana and Wyoming. With fall in the air, it’s shipping time. Sterling and Sierra Lee came home with Trig Monday night to help these guys gather and sort sheep Tuesday morning. After the crew got the lambs sorted Harry Ehlers hauled a bunch of them to Missy’s brother Brian Dreiske’s place near Keldron where
he feeds lambs every year. The kids went to school after they got the sheep worked and Casey, Missy and Taz followed the truck up to help Brian. Taz and Amanda went coon hunting Tuesday night and killed two of the chicken eaters. Wednesday morning I had a big coon in the live trap and Casey shot another one in the tree patch that afternoon. It’s too bad that isn’t all of them though, because it was probably another coon that ate all the bait out of the live trap the next night and escaped without tripping the trap. Wednesday morning the guys sorted off more lambs and some old ewes to take to Newell to the sheep sale on Thursday. While they were sorting sheep, Louise Jenson and I went to Scranton for Curt Reitz’s funeral. A large crowd of folks from the Ralph community gathered to say goodbye to our old friend and to spend time with Curt’s family. It’s sad that the only thing that gets all the folks from Ralph together is when we gather to bury another one of us.
I had Louise figure out what the highest number of Ralph residents were that she could remember. At one time there were approximately thirty people living in the little town that had a grocery store, a post office and an elementary school. Now the store, the school, and the post office have all been closed and the population was reduced to down to only Louise after her husband Gene Jenson died. Reub’s father, Ralph “Buck” Olson was named after the town of Ralph and losing our little community makes me sad. Casey took the sheep to Newell Thursday morning while Reub and I went to Hettinger for his appointment with Mary Eggebo. We took the pickup because he needed to haul the riding lawnmower to NAPA to get repaired. We made a run to Laufer’s north of Hettinger to pick a part for the baler, so we stopped at Sage’s new house on the way to see how Sage and Taz were doing on the project. The new concrete floor looked good and they were setting the floor joints for the first floor.
There is a lot of carpenter work going on around the area. Our son Thad and Jesse Jenson were repairing some hail damage at Dean and Myrna Wagner’s and they spent the night here Thursday so they could finish up the project on Friday before heading back to the Hills. Several Harding County kids got married this week. Kayla Nelson married Miles Spickelmier in Bowman Friday.

Harding County came to Scranton on Dec. 18 and 19 to take on the Nighthawk boys and girls’ basketball teams, and left going 0-2 for their efforts. Hettinger-Scranton’s boy’s basketball team faced the Ranchers first and pulled out a 64-62 win. The Nighthawk’s full court pressure initially gave the Ranchers trouble as they quickly fell behind 12-0. On top
of that, their 6’4” center Mason Teigen left the game late in the first quarter with three fouls and would not return until the 2nd half. The Nighthawks built a 13-point lead at the end of the first half which was highlighted by a buzzer-beating long range 3-point shot by Haden Sadowsky, which made the score 38-25. With the return of Teigen in the second half, better shooting and rebounding, they outscored Hettinger/Scranton 37-
26 but the Ranchers fell just short by two points. They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied. The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot. Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the
Nighthawks. Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points. The Nighthawk JV team also remains undefeated as they downing Harding Co. 63-53. Harding Co. came into the game with a 2-0 record and receiving votes in the top five in South Dakota Class B ranks. The following night the Nighthawk girls downed the
Harding County girls who came in with a 1-3 record. The Hettinger/Scranton girls also jumped out to an early lead as they were head 16-1 after the first stop, and 25-15 at half. They held on in the second half although being outscored 2421 to pull off their second win of the season to go along with five losses. Casey Joppa tallied 19 and Kinsey Jahner added 11 for the Nighthawks. Both had two 3-pointers.

favorite days – the annual chicken dinner at St. Isidore’s north of Ralph! I had a political meeting last year and had to miss it then, so I ate twice as much this year to make up for it. Casey and Trig, Taz and Amanda, and Reub and I sat at the table with Leroy and Donna Olson - no relation to our Olson clan. After Leroy and Reub added up all the other Olsons in attendance who weren’t related to either Leroy or Reub, they decided Olsons outnumbered everybody at the dinner. You’d think this was a Scandinavian community! I’ll leave you with a Norwegian joke: An Arab Sheik was admitted to Abbott-Northwestern Hospital for heart surgery, but prior to the surgery the doctors needed to store his blood in case the need arose. As the gentleman had a rare type of blood, it couldn’t be found locally, so the call went out to all the states. Finally a South Dakota Norwegian was located who had the right blood type. The Norwegian, whose name was Ole, willingly donated his blood for
the Arab. After the surgery, the Arab sent Ole, as appreciation for giving his blood, a new BMW, a pile of diamonds and several million U.S. Dollars. A couple of weeks later, once again the Arab had to go through some corrective surgery. His doctor telephoned Ole who was more than happy to donate his blood again. After the second surgery, the Arab sent Ole a thank you card and five pounds of lutefisk. Ole was shocked that this time the Arab did not reciprocate with a new car, diamonds, and money. He phoned the Arab and said, ‘I thought dat you vould be yenerous again, and dat you vould give me a nudder BMW, diamonds and money. But you only gave me a tank you card and some lutefisk!’ To this the Arab replied, ‘Ya, but now I haf Norvegian blood in my veins so I gotta tink tvice before I spend my money.’ Betty Olson is a South Dakota rancher and state legislator for District 28.

Hello, I finally figured it out. I think I’m a Czech. Well, I suppose I had better start at the beginning. You see, I come from mixed blood. I’ve never really known my entire lineage. But I do know that I have some German, Scotch, and Bohemian. There is Meyer, Krueger, Birdsall, and Wixer. I always felt that there had to be more. Sometimes I couldn’t sleep at night because I just never knew what the missing ingredient was. Then yesterday I discovered it. I’ve written about New Hradec before. Remember? I’ve told you about the wonderful New Years Eve celebration they have. They play ooom pa pa music and dance. They waltz and polka and have a wonderful supper. They do know how to ring in the New Year. The town boasts only 70 residents. At least that is what their welcome sign says. But on the evenings I’ve been there, it is closer to 300. Yesterday Shirley and I went up to New Hradec for Czech day. Really. Czech day. They start celebrating early in the afternoon with ooom pa pa music and a cash bar. At five o’clock there is a line of hundreds of people for a wonderful supper. I don’t want to, shall we say spill the beans, but the

Czech supper is very similar to the New Years Eve supper. For your information, there are no beans to spill. But there is fried chicken (with onions), pigs in a blanket, rice with chicken giblets, and a bunch of other stuff. I don’t know how they do it. But they do. That is what made me decide I am Czech. Anybody that loves beer, food, visiting, and dancing on Sunday afternoon has to be related to me! I mean that is special! I’ve been kind of worried that I was Ukrainian. Because they are a lot that way too. Which reminds me of a story. I’ve made countless trips up highway 85 over the past 40 years or so. And I could never figure out a hill north of Belfield. I always thought it looked like the ancient Incas had started building a pyramid. And then became tired before they got the top 2/3’s done. And then someone planted some trees on it to improve its looks. One day, and their may have been beer involved in this discussion I asked a gentleman from near there if he knew how this strange hill came into existence. “Yes,” he relied. “It’s where they used to mine Ukrainians.” I told him that I wasn’t a complete idiot. I knew around here the Ukrainians came from Russia. He pondered that for a while and then realized he meant uranium. I need new friends.

Seven generations That’s Life By TONY BENDER
Guest Columnist
You’re wondering why a small town newspaperman has invested so much time covering a pipeline protest across the river? Because this is a global, national and local issue right in our back yard. Our rural water comes from the spot near the pipeline’s path, a violation of the state’s Source Water Protection Program and another sign the state’s regulatory process is a rubber stamp for Big Oil. When penalties are levied for the nearly six million gallons of oil and 12 million gallons of soil-killing brine spilled between 200614, those fines are often reduced. When the radioactive waste levels become too high, instead of continuing to ship it out of state, our state government just decides to raise the acceptable level and dump it here. Then, the North Dakota Legislature gives Big Oil a 23-percent tax break that is costing the state an estimated $11 million a month. Remember that when you get your tax bill. The rules have changed time and time again to suit Big Oil, which pours millions into state politics, including $370,000 to Jack Dalrymple’s gubernatorial race in 2012. Those are not milar contributions. It’s an investp- ment. Dalrymple and U.S. n, Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., ll. themselves have large investn ments in Bakken oil. Now, late in the game, en when Native Americans other they

Nations. Potential spills and leaks to the Missouri River (and tributaries) would quickly affect drinking water intakes and large areas of wetlands, habitat, and plant resources.” The tribes have a case. But there are much larger issues at stake, including the First Amendment. The militaristic response by state government, the mercenary use of attack dogs by DAPL, incendiary and false language from public officials and media, echoes fascism. They’re arresting journalists. They’re pushing farmers around downstream with the use of eminent domain to take their private property and transfer it to billionaires. Ironic, when you consider what happened to tribal lands. There is an ongoing propaganda campaign online and in traditional media. They even had to rewrite
reality at the North Dakota Heritage Center. Question everything. Consider that billions are at stake—not that you’ll see any of it. You’re on cleanup duty when the party’s over. Ask yourself, why would DAPL go out of its way to bulldoze ground listed in court documents as having great archeological and sacred significance? Was it a coverup? An attempt to bait protesters for PR purposes? Both? This effort by Native Americans to protect their land and water has morphed into an historical turning point—the line of demarcation when people decided the fossil fuel industry holds too much environmental risk for the earth. While the goal of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe is to stop this pipeline from being located near the reservation, others want to stop it completely. And I wouldn’t bet against
that. This has become the front line for a national and a global movement. After the skirmish with pipeline security, Reyna Crow, Duluth, Minnesota, said, with mace dripping from her eyes, “I hope we’ve accomplished letting Enbridge (the pipeline owners) know that the people of this nation and the people of this world, tribal or otherwise, have withdrawn their social license to pollute water, and that they need to find an honest, nonviolent way to make a living.” More than 200 tribes have joined in this cause. We are witnessing the rebirth of the Indian Nation, united in the traditional role that most still hold as a sacred trust. Protectors of the water. Defenders of the land. Believers in the power of prayer. A culture that reveres its ancestors and is dedicated to
the next seven generations. They are taking on corporations that look only to the next quarter. Crazy Horse said, “Upon suffering beyond suffering: the Red Nation shall rise again and it shall be a blessing for a sick world. A world filled with broken promises, selfishness and separations. A world longing for light again. I see a time of Seven Generations when all the colors of mankind will gather under the Sacred Tree of Life and the whole Earth will become one circle again.” Seven generations later, here we are. © Tony Bender, 2016 Tony Bender is the former Editor of the Adams County Record and current President of Redhead Publishing in Ashley, ND.

want to put the brakes on a pipeline that pushed forward without having a written easement from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the outcry is deafening. And hypocritical. One conservative radio talker called President Obama “a tyrant” after the he temporarily halted the pipeline. But as commanderin-chief, Obama gets to tell the Army — including the Corps of Engineers — what to do. The administration called for a re-examination of the process that allowed one state’s Public Service Commission to point a pipeline at the heads of eight million people downstream. Essentially, North Dakota decided how much risk South Dakota and other states can assume. How much risk? Too risky for Bismarck, we know that much. Now, a former DAPL worker says corners were cut on the pipeline under Lake Sakakawea. It’s just a matter of time before it leaks, he said. In 2010, when the stateof-the-art BP Horizon well exploded in the Gulf of Mexico, it spilled four million barrels of oil in 87 days. The state-of-the-art DAPL will have the capacity to spill that much in a week, endangering not only the Missouri River, but the Ogallala Aquifer below that provides 30 percent of all water used in the U.S. for irrigation. In March, EPA called for a reboot of the process because, “the Draft Environmental Assessment did not include any information on coordination and consultation with tribal governments other than in connection to historic and cultural resource impacts.” EPA added, “Crossings of the Missouri River have the potential to affect the primary source of drinking water for much of N.D., S.D. and Tribal
While we may believe that Dakota Access is the best option for moving Bakken oil, the international conflagration at Standing Rock cannot be resolved by treating it as a superficial legal proceeding or as an act of civil disobedience. The situation demands that we to temper white man arrogance with understanding because this uprising is about more than a pipeline. It is rooted in history. It’s about the promise in the Laramie Treaty of 1868 to respect Sioux sovereignty of 2.5 million acres of dedicated land in Black Hills country, only to have it pared down by aggressive whites to less than one million acres. It is about General George Custer violating Indian sovereignty by going into the Black Hills in 1874 to verify the discovery of gold, thereby starting a gold rush that swept aside the Treaty and the rights of the Sioux. It is about herding a subjugated people onto reservations, slaughtering their buffalo, and promising food and shelter to sustain them on barren stretches of hostile land. We made them dependents in the 1800s and
then abhor this dependence in 2016. It is about the killing of Sitting Bull on the Standing Rock reservation in 1890 for participating in the Ghost Dance when he was not a threat to the white society or the U. S. military. It is about the massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890 in which 62 women and children were killed along with over 200 other Native Americans. In today’s world, that is called genocide. It’s about Lakes Sakakawea and Oahe backing over thousands of acres of Indian lands. It’s about a deaf state government that has always used the lack of money as an excuse for not funding Indian programs because the priorities of infrastructure, white social needs and tax cuts always came first. It’s about the Sioux perception that the white Bismarck folks couldn’t be jeopardized by a pipeline break but Indian people downstream could. We may not like this litany of convicting truths but in order to understand the protest it is necessary to acknowledge the historical facts that have brought us to this clash of two cultures. If we had treated Native Americans fairly, paid for the land, delivered on promises, kept the treaties, provided the same programs as given whites, we would have receptive friends with whom we could negotiate. The partnership of Great Britain and the United States in the Iraq invasion is a case in point. Even though the British had reservations, they went along because we have always been loyal partners in war and peace. Our relationship created an environment of deference
and compromise. On the other hand, our relationship with Native Americans has always been hostile. Now when we need their friendship and consent, we don’t have it. This brings to mind the Old Testament narrative about the return of Jacob after he had stolen Esau’s
birthright. He sent three waves of goats, sheep, camels, cows and donkeys ahead as peace offerings to the brother who had vowed to kill him. They were reconciled. I don’t know what the white man could send to Native Americans to demonstrate regret but pointing
to certificates, hearings and court decisions will not be enough to assuage generations of pain. Dakota Access may not be willing to give the modern equivalent of three waves of goats, sheep, camels, cows and donkeys to win reconciliation. Circumstances demand that the pipeline be
finished but let’s hope some reconciliation comes first. Lloyd Omdahl was the 34th Lt. Gov. of North Dakota under Gov. George Sinner. He has also worked as a professor of Political Science for the University of North Dakota. His column has been featured in newspapers in the state.

The scene begins at a high school football game, and a group of students are drinking. The group then leaves the game, getting behind the wheel after having consumed alcohol. The driver, who also drank alcohol, begins texting while she’s driving and runs into the back of a grain truck. The students hear the mock-911 call over the speakers, as if they were listening to a real emergency call. Students are led outside
where they are immediately at the scene of the accident. Things got pretty real from there. A life-flight helicopter came to the scene and picked up a victim, firefighters and EMTs then tended to the other victims at the scene. So what made this so life-like? Every volunteer was real life emergency worker. No fakes or actors, they actually perform these duties in real life. “I think the biggest thing our kids got from that is that we all talk about ‘this will never happen to me, this is something that happens to other people,’” said Dave Erickson of Hettinger, who was a first time chaperone for the event. “And I think that seeing those different things happening, they see how quickly accidents can happen and how final they are.” Following the emergency scene, students are

led back into the building where they are immediately witnessing a funeral, equipped with the presence of a real-life casket. A scene that certainly made the room quiet. Hettinger senior Sam Reuther said the room was very somber. Reuther, who played the driver, was then put on trial. A judge and attorneys—who are actually judges and attorneys in real life—were reenacting a real-life courtroom scene, where Reuther was being charged. “They try to get the real thing, so if it’s an attorney, it’s a real attorney, it’s a real judge, it’s not someone pretending to be a judge, these are the real people,” Seamands said. The whole scene was impactful, Reuther said, even to those who were actors in the scenario. “It was life changing,” Reuther said. “I made an impact on all nine of [the other actors], and all nine of them made an impact on me,” Reuther said. Hettinger’s Randy Burwick, who was attending the event for the first time
as a chaperone, said that it was his son’s reaction last year that made him want to go this time. “The reason I really wanted to go was because last year Kyle was a freshman, and boy I’ll tell you what, it really made an impact on him,” Burwick said. The first thing he was asked after he got off the bus on Wednesday was “how was it,” by his son. “That was the first thing he asked me,” Burwick said. “I thought it was just fantastic.” Seamands, who did not attend this year to let others go, said that he hasn’t seen a presentation like this one. “I’ve never seen one single presentation have that power,” Seamands said. “That’s how powerful it is.” Seamands wanted to commend all of the volunteers that put hard work and time to making sure the event went perfect, adding that it takes many agencies working together. “It almost warms your heart,” Seamands said. “It’s like ‘yeah, that’s why we live in a small town.’”

ee. How the business raises that money is up to them. For example, Fetch said, a company can offer the luxury of a casual day, or jeans day to their employees, provided they chip in to the donation pool. “It’s a great way for businesses that want to cover any type of wellness,” Fetch said. During the five-day event beginning Oct. 3, Project Hope will recognize four different cancers and save Friday, Oct. 7, to honor survivors. On those days, participating businesses are asked to dress in the color designated to honor that specific type of cancer. Monday, Oct.

During her initial visit, Fetch did not collect any money. She will return a week before the event and hand out the materials to the participating businesses. Then, sometime after Oct. 7,
she will come back and collect the donations. Included in the materials will be a donation envelope. Fetch also said they will have a booth during health week at West River.
If any business would like to join the event that hasn’t already, they can contact Fetch with the Bismarck Cancer Center at 701-2226100.

Night Hawks off to a great start By SHELDON CHRISTENSON
For The Record
2016 HETTINGER/SCRANTON NIGHT HAWKS Back Row (L to R) Head Coach Rea Eaton, Sam Reuther, Justice Anderson, Madison Warbis, Briana Sanford, Alyssa Andress, Asst. Coach Katrina Johnson. Front Row (L to R) Asst. Coach Reba Resner, Molly Holt, Calli Anderson, Tayler Burwick, Brianna Robinson, Abbie Kludt.
The Night Hawk volleyball team is off to a good start this year as they currently have a 3-0 record in Region 7 play and are 7-5 overall. They just played Bison, S.D., on Sept. 20 and lost to the undefeated Bison team by scores of 19-25, 12-25, 25-18, 25-18 and 9-15. I feel they can contend for one of the top four spots in Region 7. They have good senior leadership and some very talented younger players. I’ve seen them play twice and they are fun to watch as it shows how they love the game and compete with intensity. Last season they finished fifth in the region with a 6-5 regional record and 17-17 record overall. New head coach Ria Eaton is assisted by Katrina Johnson and Reba Resner. The following is coach Eaton’s assessment of the
team. “The Hettinger Nighthawk team is comprised of 10 players who each bring an attribute to the floor. We have great senior leadership from Taylor Burwick, Madison Warbis, Samatha Ruether, and Brianna Robinson. We have some younger players that have played varsity for two and three years such as Callie Anderson, Molly Holt, Abbie Kludt, and Briana Sanford. The rest of the team is made up of Alyssa Andress and Justice Anderson, and this is their first year of playing varsity. I’ve seen a team that has grown over the past couple weeks and are molding together nicely. They’ve had a new head coach and new offense to deal with and so far I feel they are proving themselves to be competitive on the court. We have some big region games coming up that I’m excited about. We hope to see everyone out to support us and thank you for already doing so.”

ADAMS COUNTY RECORD
Eye on southwest ND sports North Dakota Sports By SHELDON CHRISTENSON
Of all games to miss I missed the Night Hawk/ Heart River volley ball match on Sept. 15. Heart River came into the contest with an overall 7-0 record
according to the NDHSAA web site and had downed the Night Hawks the past two years, both by 3-0. Heart River took the first match easily but the Night Hawks came back to take the contest 3-2. I talked to John Kludt, and he told me the Scranton gym was rocking as the young ladies came back from the initial match to pull out the win. Another big game is coming on Sept. 27 with Hazen. Hazen had been undefeated in region play along with Trinity and the Night Hawks. But Trinity got by
Hazen in five sets on Sept. 20. The Titans won the first set 25-22 before Hazen won the next two sets 25-17 and 25-23. Trinity came back with scores of 25-14 and 1513 to win. Region 5 football scores from Sept. 16 were Hettinger-Scranton 40, Grant Co. 16; New Salem-Glen Ullin 60, Beach 12; and the upset of Bowman Co. 26 over Richardton-TH 20. RTH will lose their tie-breaker advantage over the Night Hawks if the Night Hawks were to win their remaining three games.
Penalties and not being able to convert more consistently on extra point attempts after touchdowns have been a weak point for the Night Hawk football team. Former NDSU and Bismarck Century quarterback Carson Wenz and his Philadelphia Eagles team won their second game of the season and are now 2-0. Former Beach football player and current NDSU lineman Landon Lechler was named the Missouri Valley Football Conference offensive lineman of the
week. Sports schedule for the coming week is as follows:
vs Lemmon at Reeder - Sept. 27, Varsity Volleyball vs Hazen at Hettinger - Sept. 27, Elementary Girls Basketball at Bowman - Sept. 27, JH/JV Football vs Lemmon at Hettinger - Sept. 29, Elementary Girls Basketball vs New England at Scranton - Sept. 29, Varsity Volleyball at New England -Sept. 30, Varsity Football at Mott-Regent See you at the games.

terception. Midway in the fourth quarter it looked like Anderson had another touchdown, but it was called back due to an illegal block. Both offenses were shut down as the Night Hawks were stopped on downs and Lemmon also could not gain a first down on their possession. But Cade Warbis finally put the Night Hawks ahead late in the fourth quarter on an 8-yard scamper. Their conversion was good and the score stood at 14-8. Lemmon had one chance to tie the game or gain the lead but Night Hawk Tommy Buckmier put an end to that as he sacked the Cowboy quarterback on back-to-back plays. Lemmon could not manage a first down and the Night Hawks ran the clock out. I had Anderson, Conner Andress, Warbis and Buckmier leading in the tackling department on defense. Their next scheduled game is at Mott-Regent on Oct. 3.
For The Record
In a low scoring game the junior high Night Hawks won their third straight game as they downed the Lemmon Cowboys 14-8 at Hettinger on Sept. 20. The Night Hawks scored first in the first quarter on a 33-yard touchdown run by Jeran Anderson. The defenses took over from there and the first half ended with the Night Hawks on top at 6-0. Lemmon broke into the scoring column in the third quarter when they intercepted a Night Hawk pass and ran it back 55 yards for a touchdown and were good on their conversion to take a 8-6 lead. Turnovers came in a streak as later Jack Ginter recovered a Cowboy fumble, but on the next play the Cowboys intercepted another pass. Then on the Lemmon’s first play after their interception Anderson returns the favor with his own in-

Nighthawk basketball teams both down Harding County

By SHELDON CHRISTENSON of that, their 6’4” center Mason For the Pioneer Teigen left the game late in the first quarter with three fouls Harding County came to and would not return until the Scranton on Dec. 18 and 19 to 2nd half. The Nighthawks built take on the Nighthawk boys a 13-point lead at the end of the and girls’ basketball teams, and first half which was highlighted left going 0-2 for their efforts. by a buzzer-beating long range Hettinger-Scranton’s boy’s 3-point shot by Haden Sadbasketball team faced the owsky, which made the score Ranchers first and pulled out 38-25. a 64-62 win. The Nighthawk’s With the return of Teigen in full court pressure initially gave the second half, better shootthe Ranchers trouble as they ing and rebounding, they outquickly fell behind 12-0. On top scored Hettinger/Scranton 37-
26 but the Ranchers fell just short by two points. They had a chance to tie the game with less than a minute to go but, Sam Kludt blocked a close in shot by Teigen which more than likely saved the game from being tied. The Ranchers got the ball back with 10 seconds left but could not get off a good shot. Kludt was having a problem finding his shooting touch but his blocked shot was definitely one of the key moments for the
Nighthawks. Sadowsky scored 34 for HS which included five 3-pointers and Brandon Pierce added 21. I had Clayton Koch leading Harding Co. with 23 points. The Nighthawk JV team also remains undefeated as they downing Harding Co. 63-53. Harding Co. came into the game with a 2-0 record and receiving votes in the top five in South Dakota Class B ranks. The following night the Nighthawk girls downed the
Harding County girls who came in with a 1-3 record. The Hettinger/Scranton girls also jumped out to an early lead as they were head 16-1 after the first stop, and 25-15 at half. They held on in the second half although being outscored 2421 to pull off their second win of the season to go along with five losses. Casey Joppa tallied 19 and Kinsey Jahner added 11 for the Nighthawks. Both had two 3-pointers.
