Trial date set for former minister in sex-abuse case By Chris Johnson Reporter A jury trial has been scheduled in a case against a former minister accused of sexually molesting an 11-year-old child. Charles Babler, 65, Mt. Morris, appeared in court Monday morning with his attorney David Tess. Babler, formerly the campus pastor at Crossroads Community Church, Polo, was arrested June 21, 2013, on a charge of aggravated criminal sexual abuse, a Class 2 felony. The arrest stemmed from an investigation into a single incident that took place in early 2011. “We have come to an impasse to negotiations,� said Tess. “We have talked.� Ogle County Judge Robert
Hanson asked how long the trial would take. “Two days,� said Assistant State’s Attorney Joshua Versluys. Hanson set the two day trial for June 17 at 9 a.m. A final pretrial conference was set for June 5 at 1:30 p.m. “All motions should be on file at that time,� said Hanson. Tess asked for his client to be excused from the June 5 pretrial for his granddaughter’s wedding. Versluys had concerns that during the wedding Babler would have contact with persons under age 18 which his bond does not allow. “He needs to be supervised,� said Versluys. Hanson was prepared to grant a motion to allow Babler to attend the wedding but Versluys asked for a

hearing on the matter. “Okay, we will set this for a hearing,� said Hanson. A hearing on the motion to amend the bond conditions was set for April 28 at 10 a.m. The maximum penalty for conviction of a Class 2 felony is 3 to 7 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections.
Chairman asks for audit By Vinde Wells Editor
Fun Fair
In an apparent reversal of its stand three months ago, the Ogle County Board authorized Chairman Kim Gouker Tuesday to proceed with getting a forensic audit of the sheriff’s Tow Fund. “I would like to see a full audit of the Tow Fund from beginning to end,� Gouker said. He said the audit will determine whether or not Sheriff Michael Harn has misused money from the Tow Fund, and lay to rest the questions brought up over the last several months. Gouker said Harn is also eager to have the matter resolved. “I spoke to the sheriff on my way here and told him

what I was going to propose,� Gouker said. “He thinks it’s a great idea. He’s fully cooperative.� Harn has come under fire in the last few months over expenditures from the Tow Fund, which included purchasing a new vehicle, flowers for Secretaries Day, a tent at the county fair, and $4,000 for the department’s Facebook page to be managed. Gouker said he has an estimate for the forensic audit of $7,500 from Sikich, the firm that does the county’s regular annual audits. Because it was not on the agenda, the board will have to wait until its May meeting to vote to hire Sikich for the forensic audit. Board member Richard Petrizzo, Davis Junction,
made a motion for a forensic audit of the Tow Fund as well as the sheriff’s credit card expenditures at the board’s Jan. 21 meeting. However, Gouker said the matter could not be voted on then because it was not on the agenda. Petrizzo’s subsequent efforts to have the matter placed on the agenda were unsuccessful. In February, the board diminished the sheriff’s control over the Tow Fund by limiting how monies could be spent and requiring the approval of expenditures by the county committee that oversees the sheriff’s budget. At Tuesday’s meeting the board approved a resolution establishing the Tow Fund. Turn to A3
Grass fire burned 130 acres near Stillman Valley By Vinde Wells Editor Well over a dozen fire departments turned out Friday afternoon to fight a grass fire that burned 130 acres east of the intersection of Ill. 72 and Meridian Road just outside of Stillman Valley. Wind gusts of more than 40 miles per hour drove the flames almost faster than firefighters could put them out, Stillman Valley Fire Chief Chad Hoefle said. “It was difficult to catch up to because of the wind,� he said. The very smoky fire made conditions dangerous for firefighters. When chasing a fire in the poor visibility, Hoefle said, it can be very easy for a grass rig to end up in the flames without the driver even realizing it. The fire swept though areas of timber, as well as brush piles, Hoefle said.
Despite less than ideal conditions, the fire crews, who remained on the job for four hours, were able to save the buildings of an old farmstead from the flames. “The main thing is we all went home safely and no homes were damaged,� Hoefle said. “We had a lot of help and they stayed to the end.� The fire was reported at 1:45 p.m., he said, and started from a homeowner who was burning off a prairie plot. The wind-driven flames jumped Ill. 72 and began burning corn stubble between the highway and railroad tracks. “We had to shut off traffic completely because of the wind and the intensity of the heat,� Hoefle said. That meant also rerouting school buses delivering students home from classes for the day. Firefighters contained the

flames before they spread across the railroad tracks into a large field on the other side. Although it was the biggest, it was hardly the only grass or brush fire April 11. Hoefle said several of the departments called for mutual aid could not respond because they were already on other calls. At least five other grass or brush fires were reported in Ogle County before the Stillman Valley fire. The Oregon Fire Department was called to a grass fire west of town shortly after noon and had barely returned when they were called to a corncrib fire, started by grass burning, east of town. Polo was called to a shed fire on Ill. 26, quickly followed by a call to Forreston for a field fire and few miles away on Freeport Road. A Stillman Valley fire truck sits in the eastbound lane of Ill. 72 Friday afternoon. Turn to A3 The state highway was closed while departments from several area communities

Food drive set for May 10 Saturday, May 10 marks the 22nd anniversary of America’slargest-single day of giving — the National Association of Letter Carriers Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive in Partnership with the U.S.Postal Service, Campbell Soup, Feeding America, and other partners. The Forreston Post Office will once again participate in the food drive. Postal customers are asked to leave a non-perishable food donation in a bag by the mailbox on Saturday, May 10, and the postal carrier will do the rest. It’s that simple,
and millions of Americans will be helped. Currently, 49 million Americans—one in six—are unsure where their next meal is coming from. Sixteen million are children who feel hunger’s impact on their overall health and ability to perform in school. And nearly five million seniors over age 60 are food insecure, with many who live on fixed incomes often too embarrassed to ask for help. In 2013, 74 million pounds of food was collected by postal carriers nationally, feeding an estimated 30
million people. Over the course of the 21-year history, the Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive has collected well over one billion pounds of food. The food drive’s timing is crucial. Food banks and pantries often receive the majority of their donations during the Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday seasons. By springtime, many pantries are depleted, entering the summer low on supplies at a time when many school breakfast and lunch programs are not available to children in need.
Potato bar fundraiser set The German Valley Lions Club is planning a baked potato and sandwich bar fundraiser on Saturday, April 26 from 4:30 to 7 p.m. at the Silver Creek Reformed Church, 326 S. Bunker HIll Rd., German Valley. The church is handicapped

Bid accepted for new $4.1 million sheriff’s building By Vinde Wells Editor Despite opposition to the location, the Ogle County Board went ahead Tuesday with plans to build a new sheriff’s administration building. The board accepted a $4.1 million bid from Rockford Structures for the project. Plans call for the building to be located at 103 Jefferson Street, Oregon, where the current sheriff’s office is situated. However, that site has brought opposition from board members and citizens. Beth Henderson, owner of the Eagles Nest, located a block north from the sheriff’s building, urged the board to
reconsider because that area, which is next to the Rock River, has been earmarked for a riverfront district. “Oregon has all the components to promote tourism,” she said. One of the main components for tourism and recreation is the river and the area surrounding it, she said. As a nearby landowner, Henderson said she was never contacted about the plans for the new sheriff’s building. Not developing the area for tourism will reduce the value of her property, she said. Henderson also said the taxes on her property are high because of its location next to the river. A better location for the

sheriff’s building, she said, would be on the property the county owns on South Sixth Street west of the judicial center. Henderson asked the board to delay the project at least long enough to do an economic impact study of the area and determine the effect the sheriff’s building would have on it, in contrast to tourism development.
She said Western Illinois University has been contacted and would do the study at no cost to the county. WIU did an economic impact study before the judicial center was built. Oregon City Commissioner Ken Williams also asked for a 30-day moratorium on the project to allow time for the study. He said the area is a
main part of the riverfront district included in Oregon’s Comprehensive Plan 10 years ago. Board member Skip Kenney, Rochelle, made a motion to table accepting the bid until the May 20 meeting to allow time to do the economic impact study. “I do not support the location. I support the project,” he said. “All I’m asking for is 30 days.” Board chairman Kim Gouker, Byron, said he does not understand the opposition to the location. He said the new building will be a “$4 million improvement” over the present century-old building. “The sheriff’s department has been there for 30 years,”
he said. Board member Ron Colson, Mt. Morris, disagreed. “It’s a $4 million roadblock to tourism,” he said. The motion to table the bid failed by a vote of 8 to 13. The new administration building will house the sheriff’s department, 911 communications center, and the coroner’s office and morgue. Architect Guy Gehlhausen said Rockford Structures’ bid was the lowest of eight submitted. Rockford Structures is also the contractor for the new Sinnissippi Centers, Inc. building across Jefferson Street from the sheriff’s office.

Original ordinance never established a Tow Fund From A1 Gouker said that although the board approved implementing administrative tow fees in 2011, the ordinance governing that did not actually establish the Tow Fund. The new resolution also mandates that Tow Fund deposits are limited to only administrative fees collected when a vehicle is towed, impounded, or seized during a criminal investigation.
It further requires that the Tow Fee will be handled by the Ogle County Treasurer’s office, rather than the sheriff, as in the past. Treasurer John Coffman said the Tow Fund was turned over to him on Tuesday, when he received a check for $51,932.07 from the sheriff’s department. Coffman said he did not receive any Tow Fund revenue or expenditure records from the sheriff’s department, only the check.
“How do you know it’s correct?” asked board member Bill Welty, Chana. “I don’t,” Coffman replied. “Do we have the Tow Fund books?” asked board member Pat Nordman, Oregon. Gouker said he had recently received a copy of the fund ledger. In a related matter, three tow truck owners went before the board to voice their concern over being taken off the sheriff’s tow rotation list.
Doug Aken, Oregon, spoke for the three which also included Stan Ubben, Mt. Morris, and Greg Wagner, Polo. Aken said all three have been on the rotation list for many years but found themselves being called less frequently under Harn’s administration. “Since Sheriff Harn has taken office my tows have dwindled,” Aken said. Then on March 20, Aken said he received a letter

Anna Schweitz, Lucas Gillan exchange vows
Zuniga receives Reagan Fellows award at Eureka
Paper cones, constructed from vintage sheet music and filled with babies’ breath, marked the aisle of the Naperville Evangelical Covenant Church for the afternoon wedding of Anna Christine Elizabeth Schweitz and Lucas Warren Gillan on July 5, 2013. The groom’s father, Rev. Scot Gillan, officiated at the double-ring ceremony. A wooden cross made by the bride’s father, Terry Schweitz, presented the cord of three strands on the altar and was surrounded by yellow daisy mums placed in memory of beloved family members. The maid of honor was Lindsey Janssen-Widmer, friend of the bride. The bride’s brothers, Kurt, Karl and Andrew Schweitz as well as her sisters-in-law, Lea and Katy Schweitz, all were members of the bridal party. The best men were Grady and Cooper Gillan, brothers of the groom. Kelly Johnston served her brother as groomsmaid. Other groomsmen were Greg Johnston, Collin Ruffenach, Brent Lefevers and Sean Hunter, friends of the groom. All attendants wore grey formal attire. The bride’s niece, Emma Schweitz, was the flowergirl, dressed in yellow. She held a little bell to ring to announce the bridal entry.
An Oregon High School senior is one of six incoming freshmen to be selected as a Reagan Fellows in the Ronald W. Reagan Leadership Program at Eureka College. The award, based on leadership, service and academic excellence, includes a full-tuition scholarship over four years and global travel and professional mentorship opportunities. The students were selected from a field of 90 semifinalists in a competition held on campus in February. Sarah Zuniga, daughter of Jose Zuniga and Debra Zuniga, both of Oregon, is editor of the yearbook, president of the Poetry Slam committee and a member of the Principal-Student Advisory Council. She is also a member of the concert and marching bands, madrigals, musical theater productions and National Honor Society. She was a scorekeeper/manager for the girls’ basketball team and also a correspondent for the Oregon Republican Reporter newspaper and an activity director at a local dude ranch. Zuniga plans to major in sociology and psychology. “We are extremely pleased to welcome these six Reagan Fellows to this distinguished leadership program,� said Eureka College President J. David Arnold in a news release. “All of them have superb records to date in learning, service and leadership. Their futures are
Wearing a grey suit, Isaac Schweitz, nephew of the bride, presented the rings on the bride’s greatgrandmother’s Bible, which the bride’s mother carried at her wedding. The bride’s mother, Christine Schweitz, and grandmother, Barbara Schrader, as well as the groom’s mother, Meagan Gillan, all read scripture passages. A string quartet comprised of friends of the bride played music arranged by the groom for his bride’s entry which was preceded by a trumpet fanfare performed by Michael Lipinski and Michael Holden, friends of the bride. Karl and Katy Schweitz sang, “How Deep the Father’s Love for Us,� during the braiding of the cord of three strands. Other wedding musicians included the New Community Covenant Church Worship Team and The Sheridan Singers, students of the bride. Kurt Schweitz arranged the recessional music. The bride chose a gown made of alencon lace in a slim A-line silhouette. It had a gracious Queen Anne neckline with a keyhole back. A light gold charmeuse slip dress was worn under the alencon dress. She also wore a double layer veil. One as a blusher and the other as a waltz-

length veil elegantly accented with a one-eighth-inch ribbon cascading down. She carried a yellow summer bouquet of roses, lilies, snapdragons, freesia, limonium, alstroemeria, craspedia and babies’ breath all beautifully arranged by her aunt, Julie Herring, assisted by Julie’s daughter, Beth Marshall. Female attendants, as well as mothers and grandmother, carried smaller versions of the same bouquet. Male attendants and groomsmen wore boutonnieres of Italian ruscus, yellow freesia and craspedia. The reception was held at the Hinsdale Community House with dinner and dancing to live music performed by the Chicago
band, The Right Now. The bride graduated from Forreston High School in 2003 and from the Northern Illinois University School of Music in 2007. She is employed as an elementary music teacher in Lake Forest and plays violin in the Jan Sobieski String Quartet and in the Evanston Symphony Orchestra. Her husband is a 2004 graduate of Canyon Del Oro High School in Tucson, Ariz., as well as a 2007 graduate of the Northern Illinois University School of Music. He is a freelance musician and teacher in the Chicago area. The couple honeymooned in western Canada and reside in Evanston.

Rudolf Memorial Scholarship Fundraiser, March Madness Event" a totally overwhelming success! We are deeply humbled, and so grateful for all the support and love we have received. In recognition, we thank the Mt. Morris Moose for letting us stage the event at their facility. We are grateful for the three bands who gave of their time and shared their talents throughout the evening: Jeff Elbel with his band "Ping", solo act, John Sabaduquia, and Larry Ubben and Dan Elsasser with "The Bootleg Flyers"! What a great variety of music, fun and dancing! You all Rocked! Additional special thanks: for the delicious subs provided by Jersey Mike's, Mark Cross; to Super Valu, Jim Kaufman, for providing all the utensils; to ProGraphics, Curt Ennenga, for all the print and posters made at their place of business; to Celebrations Catering, Mindy Ditzler and Toby Aguilar, for the salads and extras provided, and to Curt and Sharon Ennenga for donating chips; to Peg Cox for handling the purchase of T-shirts from Shirt Depot, and Phil Aderton donating the coozies for the event; to the "cookies table" gals, Edie White, Terri Scheidecker, Chris Weller and Julie Rude, who organized an unbelievable display of thousands of yummy cookies! Thanks to the many, many of you who donated cookies to make this portion of the event so successful! Without the support of all who attended, we could not have accomplished such rewarding donations to establish the scholarship fund in Scott's name. This scholarship fund is designed to offer two scholarships for student-athletes to continue their education. Each year, $500 will be rewarded to one girl and one boy student-athlete who meets the scholarship’s criteria in the Oregon/Mt. Morris graduating Senior Class. A special thanks to Phil Aderton, who was so instrumental in getting this event off the ground! And, of course, not nearly enough thanks can be offered to our wonderful organizing committee, who contributed so much to make the March Madness Kickoff event a reality. The committee made such a great TEAM, and in recognition of their efforts, we’d like to announce the starting line-up: Phil Aderton, Steve Blanco, Linda Claussen, Peggy Cox, Curt Ennenga, Sharon Ennenga, Angie Good, Jay Holley, Scott Kessler, Paul Monnahan, Jason Page, Stefanie Page, Lana Vaile and Edie White. Stay tuned for more details on the Scott Rudolf Scholarship Golf Outing. We hope to see you there to continue the celebration of Scott's life and at the same time, support the success of our student-athletes of the future.
Sincerely, The Family of Scott D. Rudolf

New baling partnership for Village of Progress and Angel Treasures Warmer weather is finally here, bringing with it a desire by many to clean out clothes closets and engage in other “spring cleaning.� While purging all those unnecessary items, consider donating them to Angel Treasures where they will be turned into funds to benefit those in the community with a life-limiting illness. Even clothing, shoes, purses, and belts, that are not able to be sold at Angel Treasures, can benefit Serenity Hospice and Home and the Village of Progress through a new baling partnership. These shoes, purses, and belts are baled or bagged and sold to a third party vendor. They are then worn by those in need in Africa and parts of Central and South America. Angel Treasures also accepts most donations of furniture. It must be in a condition to resell. Although somewhat limited in space at the Mt. Morris location, Angel Treasures sells donated
furniture at the Flamingo Palace, located on Third Street in Oregon. Donated furniture items can be taken to either the Oregon or Mt. Morris location, 4045 W. Ill. 64.
Anyone with furniture to donate but unable to take it to either location, call volunteer coordinator, Pam Salvador-Gould, at 815732-2499, and a pickup can be scheduled.

What’s Cookin’ winners announced A recent fundraiser brought in several thousand dollars to support a local community organization. According to Ann Haas, The cast of Byron Civic Theatre’s Monty Python’s Spamalot rehearse one of many executive director of the dance numbers. Performances will be April 25-27 and May 2-4. Photo supplied Rock River Center, Oregon, What’s Cookin’ on March 29 raised more than $9,000 for the RRC.
BCT’s Spamalot begins April 25 The cast for the Byron Civic Theatre’s production of Monty Python’s Spamalot— which is lovingly ripped off from the classic film comedy Monty Python and the Holy Grail— is comprised of performers near and far, setting the stage for a great production. As the cast and crew prepare for opening night, April 25, one thing is certain—the Byron Civic Theatre is thrilled to have individuals performing form all over the stateline area. With individuals coming from different areas including Byron, Rockford, Roscoe, Loves Park, Rochelle, just to name a few. The major benefit to having individuals coming from so many different backgrounds, is the number of different experiences that they have had over the years, that come together from so many different places to put
together a performance that they all can be proud of. It also provides opportunities to learn from other, from Tessa Castaneda, Loves Park (Lady of the Lake) “It gives me a chance to learn from other people. Different methods were shared. Meeting new people has expanded my friendship circle.� Productions as SPAMALOT, also open up to the opportunities of different ages, and different levels of performing experiences. R. Douglas (Sir Robin) with more than 30 years of theatre experiences puts its best. “Theatre itself is the most collaborative of all the arts – so the more people with different experiences – the stronger the creation. It’s fun to see people at different levels of experience come together and help each other create a show,� he said.
Monty Python’s Spamalot opens April 25. Performances continue April 26, 27, and May 2, 3 and 4. Showtimes are Friday and Saturday night at 7:30 p.m. and Sunday matinees at 2 p.m. Tickets are now on sale. Please note: This production contains mature themes and language.

Ogle County Sheriff returns $8,754 to park district By Vinde Wells Editor The Oregon Park District Board agreed last week to terminate its intergovernmental agency agreement with the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department for police services and to enter into a restructured agreement. Both decisions were approved unanimously. The action came April 8 after Sheriff Michael Harn returned $8,754 of the
$10,000 the park district has paid the sheriff’s department for two years of police services. The Oregon Park District issued a $5,000 check to the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department in September of 2013, as part of an agreement for the department to provide “reactive patrol support,� among other policing services. That money was never deposited. A year earlier, in August of 2012, the sheriff’s
department had received another $5,000 check from park district, made out to Harn. That money was deposited, according to public records the park district released to Sauk Valley Media more than two weeks ago. Where that money was deposited, however, is unclear. According to park district records, Harn returned the uncashed check from last September on March 28 when he paid a visit to park district executive director
Erin Folk at her office. Harn also returned the money that was unspent from the first $5,000 payment. That refund amounted to $3,754, according to the park district, which Harn paid in cash. Such a payment in cash is “totally inappropriate,� Ogle County Treasurer John Coffman said April 9. Coffman has no record of the county receiving either $5,000 check, though the money could have bypassed the treasurer’s office by
Oregon Park District’s April 8 press release (Editor’s Note: Here is the Oregon Park District’s April 8 press release in its entirety regarding payments to the Ogle County Sheriff’s office.) The Oregon Park District Board of Commissioners took action on two items relating to police services during their regularly scheduled meeting held April 8, 2014. Police services action items included consent to terminate the existing agreement with the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department and an approval of a restructured police services agreement. Both action items were approved by a vote of (4-0). The Oregon Park District and Ogle County Sheriff’s Department initially entered into a police services agreement in August 2012.
The Oregon Park District was responsible for an annual payment of $5,000 to the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department and in return would receive the following services: Reactive patrol support, assistance with Oregon Park District crimes, community service and community crime prevention presentations, equipment and support of Park District police officers in providing a variety of community programs deemed appropriate for good community policing, administrative services, and dispatch services. Per the agreement the Oregon Park District submitted a payment of $5,000 in August of 2012 and a payment of $5,000 in September of 2013. During the term of this agreement
the Ogle County Sheriff’s Department did provide police services as agreed upon. Sheriff Michael Harn contacted the Oregon Park District on March 27th and voiced his intent to terminate the existing police services agreement and return all unspent funds. On March 28th, 2014 Sheriff Harn returned $8,754.38 of the funds that remained unspent by his department to the Oregon Park District. Sheriff Harn no longer considered the payment to be necessary for the services offered by his department. Following termination of the existing agreement a restructured agreement was proposed. The restructured police services agreement eliminates the annual payment
for services and incorporates the beautification of the Ogle County Courthouse lawn as reciprocation for the Sheriff’s Department’s efforts. The Oregon Park District has been involved with downtown beautification efforts since 2009 and integrated the courthouse lawn to the project in 2011. The Oregon Park District currently has intergovernmental agreements with the Oregon Community Unit School District, City of Oregon, and Ogle County Sheriff’s Department. Intergovernmental cooperation creates an efficient and effective opportunity for the Oregon Park District to provide the best possible services to its residents.
going, for instance, to the controversial, off-budget administrative tow fund, over which the sheriff had wide spending discretion. The county board decided in February to tighten its grip on the tow fund. It limited the fund’s expenditures to police cars, their maintenance and equipment, and fuel. All spending now has to go through the treasurer’s office. The fund was turned over to Coffman’s office on Tuesday. According to a press release from Folk, Harn told the district March 27 that he planned to terminate the existing agreement. He returned the money the next day. “Sheriff Harn no longer considered the payment to be necessary for the services offered by his department,� the release said. The restructured agreement eliminates the annual payment for services. Instead, the park district will beautify the Ogle County Courthouse lawn as payment for the sheriff’s police services. Folk said Monday that the park district will continue to have its own police officer Tad Dominski patrol parks and park district property. The park district formed its own police force approximately two years ago. Folk said Dominski has worked on an abbreviated
schedule during the winter months, but will be on duty for more hours as seasonal activities at the parks increase. She said the sheriff’s department is not the only agency with which the park district has intergovernmental agency agreements. The district also maintains such agreements with the City of Oregon and the Oregon School District. Park district employees maintain beautification projects in Oregon’s downtown and in return, the city provides water at no charge for the Splash Park at Oregon Park West, Folk said. The park district has several intergovernmental agency agreements with the school district, she said, including sixth grade sports, high school sports, and the Blackhawk Center, which was built by the park district approximately 20 years ago, mainly as a venue for high school sports. According to park district committee minutes, the agreement for the Blackhawk Center expires in August and may be restructured. The school district currently pays the park district $168,000 per year for use of the facility, which is 70 percent of the total $235,000 operating expenses. David Giuliani contributed to this story.
Mistake over grant money costs county $30,536 By Matt Mencarini Sauk Valley Media The Ogle County Sheriff’s Department last fall reimbursed the state more than $30,000 for expenses it thought were covered by a grant but turned out to be ineligible. Most of the $30,536 sent to the Illinois Emergency Management Agency on Oct. 31 was a reimbursement for the purchase of office furniture for an emergency operations center. The furniture was bought for $28,723 by Sheriff Michael
Harn after the deadline had passed for spending the money. The purchase of a $2,500 trailer also was determined to be ineligible under the terms of the Illinois Plan for Radiological Accidents grant. The money was returned to the state a day after the IEMA sent a letter to the Ogle County Emergency Management Agency of the Sheriff’s Department. The IEMA letter, and the Sheriff’s Department’s response, were obtained by Sauk Valley Media through
Freedom of Information Act requests to both agencies. The county had 1 year to spend the grant money – from July 1, 2012, to June 30, 2013. But two purchases of furniture were made after the deadline – by 12 and 17 days. “I don’t think it’s real common,� IEMA spokeswoman Patti Thompson said of late purchases. “I think the grant periods are pretty well known.� Thompson also said the 2013 fiscal year grant was the only one by IEMA to Ogle County that had ineligible
purchases. A document provided by Ogle County shows that 20 of the 22 purchases from the grant money were made between Jan. 23, 2013, and May 15, 2013. The final two purchases, for the furniture, were the only two authorized by Harn. The sheriff didn’t respond to multiple requests for comment. The purchase of a Duracraft 12-foot enclosed trailer wasn’t approved in the grant’s budget, and wouldn’t have been approved by IEMA,
Thompson said, even if the Sheriff’s Department had asked for approval under the initial agreement. Additionally, because the department didn’t have a functional emergency operations center at the time that IEMA’s letter was sent, Ogle County didn’t receive the $46,770 it had requested for a 2014 fiscal year grant. Instead, it was given $31,570. The 2014 fiscal year grant had remained pending while the 2013 fiscal year grant issue was resolved. In their Oct. 31 response to
the state, Harn and Candace Humphrey, the head of the county’s emergency management agency, referred to the reimbursement being paid so quickly. “If at all possible we would encourage Ogle County’s [fiscal year 2014] grant monies sent to us in the same diligence as we mailed your refund,� the letter said. “We are attempting to procure several items that are needed for the Nov. 20 Byron [power plant] exercise so the FY14 grant funds are needed expeditiously.�
Harn reinstates towing fee, sends email to members By Matt Mencarini Sauk Valley Media Ogle County Sheriff Michael Harn told some County Board members Monday that his department would resume collecting the controversial administrative tow fee. In an email to seven County Board members and State’s Attorney Mike Rock, Harn said he “will be implementing the fee as it was before.� He also apologized for any confusion that was caused by his internal memo April 1, when the sheriff told his department that it would continue to “tow vehicles subsequent to arrest� but that it wouldn’t “distribute the vehicle seizure paperwork, nor require owners to remit the $350 impound fee.� In Harn’s email to board members Monday, he said he spoke with his attorney and knows what he can do, but he wants the issue to go away. “I would like to explain briefly what I was attempting to do,� Harn said in the email.
“In no way was I attempting to hurt the county or any one person. The feedback I was getting was just get away from the tow fund and let the next sheriff deal with it however they wish to deal with it!� Harn didn’t respond to a request for comment from Sauk Valley Media. A week after the memo, Ogle County Board Chairman Kim Gouker said suspension of the tow fund wasn’t a decision made by the county and that he would contact Rock to determine whether that action was within the sheriff’s authority. Both Gouker and Rock said Monday, before Harn’s email, that the County Board didn’t have the power to force the Sheriff’s Department to collect the fee. On April 8, Gouker told Sauk Valley Media he didn’t believe the Sheriff’s Department had a choice on whether to collect the fee, but said that was just his initial interpretation of the county ordinance.
A county ordinance can’t override a state statute for the sheriff as an elected official, Gouker said Monday, adding that the sheriff is an autonomous elected official who answers to the voters. In February, the County Board made changes to the tow fund, limiting how the money could be spent and transferring control of the fund to County Treasurer John Coffman. As of Monday morning, Coffman said, the fund hadn’t been transferred to his department’s control. The administrative tow fee was established by a county ordinance in 2011 and allows the Sheriff’s Department to collect a $350 administrative fee to tow vehicles, such as those resulting from a DUI arrest or driving with a suspended license. Between October 2011 and November 2013, $210,400 was deposited into the tow fund, which the ordinance allowed to be spent at the sheriff’s discretion. In December, Sauk Valley
Media reported that Harn had used money from the tow fund to pay for repairs to department vehicles, a tent at the Ogle County Fair, a $4,000 management fee for the department’s Facebook page, and flowers for Secretary’s Day, among other expenses.
Transferring control Harn met with Gouker, Coffman and Ogle County Vice Chairman John Finfrock on April 8, the day of the county board’s committee meetings. During that meeting, Harn said the tow fund would be transferred to the treasurer that day, according to the County Security Committee meeting’s tentative minutes and interviews with Gouker and Coffman. While Gouker said he wanted the transfer to happen last Tuesday, when Harn said it would be done, he hadn’t looked into what actions the County Board could take to force that transfer. “There probably aren’t

many because elected officials are autonomous and they answer only to the voters,� Gouker said. “That’s just something that I don’t think we’ll have to find out.� Gouker said he would talk with Harn to see why there was a delay in making the transfer. Rock said he hadn’t looked into what legal options the County Board would have to make that transfer happen, adding that he thought Harn and the County Board would be able to work it out. To transfer the fund to the treasurer’s control, Harn would likely have to merely close out the account with the bank, Coffman said, and have
a cashier’s check written for the remaining balance. There’s a resolution on the County Board agenda for today that would establish the tow fund and restrict its revenue to the $350 administrative fee. It would also add reporting oversight from the treasurer. In the March 18 Republican primary election, Harn lost a close three-way race to Brian VanVickle, a Rochelle police officer. The Democratic Party has no candidate yet for the general election on Nov. 4. Harn had no Democratic opponent in 2010. The new sheriff’s term will start Dec. 1.

desk of a former student who had intended to complete it but allowed it to languish 15 years. Stephen Thomas, a Taft scholar from Chicago, tracked down the whereabouts of the book and edited it. It was a rough draft and needed fleshing out to be publishable. Thomas secured the professional help of Robert LaFrance, curator of the Krannert Art Museum on the Urbana campus. LaFrance researched additional information to complete the book and gathered 200 photos both black and white and color to complete the book. Dr. Henry Adams added two appendices. The announcement of the forthcoming book was made April 7 at a joint meeting of the Cliff Dwellers Club in Chicago and the Chicago Literary Club, of which Stephen Thomas is a member. Following a dinner in the meeting hall and dining club on the 22nd floor of the old Pioneer building on South Michigan Avenue across from the Art Institute, Thomas and LaFrance detailed the struggle to bring the book to life to a membership of nearly 60 people.

Weller was a neighborhood kid, who in his own words was a “hanger on,� at the Midway Studios where Taft created his art in Chicago. Taft inspired Weller to a career in art education. Weller directed the Krannert Art Museum prior to LaFrance’s administration, and was often in Oregon to present programs or attend various functions at the Lorado Taft Field Campus, site of the original art colony.

It is estimated that more than 800 volunteers came together over the twoday period of “packing the meals.” “We did it — one meal at a time,” said Kim Pool, director of the HCC High School Servant-Leadership program. “Literally thousands of people in our community deserve to be recognized for their generous support of this project.”
A local couple’s generosity has solved an Oregon woman’s dilemma over an unusually high water bill. Oregon City Clerk Charlene Ruthe said a couple came into the city hall Monday and paid Carol Long’s almost $2,000 water bill. Ruthe said the couple, who lives in Oregon, asked that their names are not revealed. “They want to remain anonymous,” Ruthe said. “They said they just didn’t think she [Long] should have to worry about her water bill.” “I’m overwhelmed. I’m speechless,” Long said after she got the good news. “I’m in awe that someone would do this for me. I’m asking God to bless those people.” In the last two months Long has received two bills totaling a whopping $1,955.14. Her neighbor Rick Ryland addressed the city council April 8 and asked commissioners to reduce or forgive the bill, which was caused by a malfunctioning toilet. The council postponed making a decision until the city attorney could get them more information about putting a lien on Long’s house, which is for sale. Ryland told the council that Long, 84, lives in an averagesized house, and normally her water bill is $41.10 per month.
Long is trying to sell her house to move into a nursing home, Ryland said, and the problem began when her realtor and nephew, Mike Long, got a call from Ruthe who told him the water bill was unusually high. A subsequent check of the house revealed that the flapper stuck open on the toilet in the basement, causing it to run continually. When the bill arrived a week to 10 days later, the total due was approximately $1,500. Soon after, Long went out of town, first visiting a daughter and then attending her son’s funeral, Ryland said. Then April bill arrived and Long found out she owed more than $400 in addition to the March bill. Ryland said Long simply didn’t hear the toilet running because it is in the basement. The running toilet used a total of 188,000 gallons of water. Water & Sewer Commissioner Patrick Wiesner said the city’s policy has been to not make adjustments for leaks that aren’t the city’s fault. In this case, he said, the customer’s equipment failed. Wiesner said Long’s service would not be shut off because of the bill. Mayor Tom Stone said Long should continue to pay her normal monthly amount until the council makes a decision.

Where do local basketball teams stand next year? By Andy Colbert Reporter Before we close out the 2013/14 high school basketball season, here’s a look ahead to next year. For the Oregon boys, things just got considerably harder. Instead of six other good BNC teams to contend with, Dixon will be joining the party. The Dukes come in to the BNC with the largest enrollment of the bunch at 800 students. They also won a 3A regional, had 23 wins, and return its starting line-up.
Oregon can’t be too overly excited to see another powerhouse on its BNC schedule. There is already Rockford Lutheran, who nearly pulled off a 3A state title and has plenty of young talent coming through the program. Winnebago is another program that also seems to have a pipeline to skilled players year after year. Rock Falls was down this year, but past history says the Rockets won’t lay dormant for long. Mendota continues to improve and will be a
formidable foe, likewise with Byron. Where does that leave Oregon? It will be another tough go of it for the Hawks because of how difficult the BNC has become. Losing nine senior girls will be a major blow for the Lady Hawks and they too have a brutal conference schedule. Mendota, which won a 3A regional, brings back all those tall girls and will be the conference favorite, along with Lutheran. Byron will be very good, Stillman Valley improved and don’t forget
about Dixon. After compiling two of the best back-to-back seasons in school history, what can the Polo boys do for an encore? How about making it three 20-win seasons in a row. With the sophomores and juniors coming back, that is a definite possibility. And, there’s no reason to think that the Marcos can’t be in contention again for the conference title. Though the girls from Polo struggled, 2015 shows promise with the number of juniors that saw major playing time.
Lady Marcos sixth at Stillman The Lady Marcos track team from Polo Forreston competed at the Stillman Valley Varsity Invite on April 10. Polo finished in sixth place with 38 points. Results are listed below. 3200 meter relay: fifth place A team, 12:08.99.
400 meter relay: third place, A team, 58.04. 100 meter hurdles final heat 1: fifth place, Serenity Stapleton, 20.47; sixth place Naeva Groenewold, 20.90. 100 meter dash: sixth place, Makayla Henneman, 13.72.
800 meter run: fifth place, Kailee Fiorello, 3:00.20. 800 meter relay: sixth place, A team, 2:18.91. 400 meter dash: heat 2, second place, Josie Pasch, 1:09.30; third place Makayla Henneman, 1:10.96.
300 meter low hurdles, heat 2, first place, Justine Gorzny, 59.96. 1600 meter relay: third place, place, team A, 4:41.86. High jump: first place, Serenity Stapleton, 4’08�. Long jump: Naeva Groenewold, 14’07�.50.
The Forreston girls will be hurt big time by the loss of Rachel Walton and Maggie Curry, but that program seems to quietly hum along. The real wild card next year
will be the Forreston boys with Jonathan Schneiderman gone. How will a new coach fit in and will the returning starters meld together as a team?

Lady Cardinals played four interesting games The Forreston/Polo softball team played 4 games last week in contradictory fashion. The Cardinal squad played errorless ball in two victories against South Beloit but misplayed twelve balls in losses to strong Amboy and Pearl City teams. The start of the week saw Forreston beat South Beloit 5-1 behind the 4 hit pitching
of Abby Peterson. Jess Slater led the offense with 3 hits and Hailey Ingram added two. Forreston broke the game open with a 4 run sixth inning highlighted by a Destiny Darmon RBI double and a two run single by Slater. The following day Forreston played sloppy defense and could only muster 5 hits against
undefeated Amboy. The Clippers repeatedly made key defensive plays in their 11-0 victory. The Cardinal nine almost duplicated their previous South Beloit victory by winning 6-1 on the road. Abby Peterson was the winning pitcher again and was supported by a 15 hit barrage. Batsmen with two hits included Destiny Darmon, Olivia Peterson and Paige Peterson. Darmon slugged a home run in the sixth inning and Rebekah Wilken had a triple in the seventh that plated a runner. To close out the week Forreston lost to a Pearl City team that had entered the game with a 9-3 record. Hurler Jozi Grobe pitched well but the team defense did not support her efforts committing six errors in the 8-4 loss. The offense hit well with 2 hits each by Destiny Darmon, Olivia Peterson, Hailey Ingram, Paige Peterson and Rebekah Wilken. The Cardinal softball team now sports a 6-3 won loss record with home games Hailey Ingram watches the ball as she takes a pitch scheduled in German Valley for a ball April 10 against South Beloit.

Cardinals fall to DuPec The Forreston-Polo Cardinals traveled to Pecatonica Tuesday night to take on DuPec. DuPec got on the scoreboard in the first inning with a single run. In the third and fourth innings Forreston added two runs each frame to take a 4-1
lead. The lead would not last as DuPec put up four in the sixth to take a 5-4 lead. The Cardinals were unable to plate any runners in the seventh and took the loss. Ethan Groom pitched 6 innings giving up five runs on six hits. He issued one walk
and had one strikeout. Forreston committed four errors during the game. Offensively Brayden Wierzycki was 2-4 with a pair of doubles. Karl Prerost was 2-3. The loss brings Forreston’s record on the season to 5-5 and 3-1 in the NUIC.
Forreston-Polo picks up wins over Amboy and SB The Forreston-Polo Cardinals baseball team picked up a win in South Beloit April 10. The Cardinals were down early after giving up a single run in the first inning, but the damage could have been worse with South Beloit having the bases loaded. Forreston tied the game up in the third. South Beloit picked up a run in the fifth to regain the lead. In the sixth inning Ethan Groom had a single with one out. Braden Wierzycki singled to advance groom to third. Wierzycki advanced to second on the throw. Forreston’s Richie Bartnick safely slides into first on a pick-off attempt during a game Austin Groshan hit a ball South Beloit April 10. Photo by Chris Johnson to the shortstop and scored
a run. Jacob Cunningham came through with a two out single to score Wierzycki for the winning run. Andrew Beasley was the winning pitcher giving up six hits and two runs. He tallied seven strikeouts. With the win, the Cardinals are 3-0 in conference and 5-4 overall. This was the second win for Forreston against South Beloit last week. Forreston hosted them on April 8. The Cardinals scored five runs in the first on the way to a 11-1 five inning victory. Groom was the winning pitcher during this contest.
Austin Groshans had three hits including a double and three RBIs. Jordan Ludwig had three hits including a double and two RBIs. Wyatt Kerchner had two hits. Forreston also picked up a win 10-4 over Amboy April 9. Richie Bartnick was credited with the win on his two innings of work. He recorded four strikeouts. Patterson started the game and pitched five innings and had five strikeouts. Beasley was 1-3 with 1 RBI and Wierzycki was 1-3 with 1 RBI. Cunningham was 1-2 with a double and an RBI. Bartnick had 2 RBIs.
Forreston has been the preeminent basketball program By Andy Colbert Reporter The boys state tournament was the first of any high school sport, having begun in 1908. It remained the granddaddy of all IHSA tournaments until the football playoffs began to overtake it in popularity around the 1980s. If there is a preeminent
boys basketball program in Ogle County it would be Forreston. Since the IHSA went away from the 1-class tournament in 1972, the Cardinals are the only school to make it downstate (1988). Additionally, they have won four sectionals, compared to one each for Byron (2007), Mt. Morris (1983), Oregon (1979) and Rochelle (1928).
Also going back in history, Forreston had powerhouse teams from 1956-58, going a combined 85-7 and winning three straight regionals, quite a feat for a small school in a 1-class system. Another quirky tidbit concerns a former Cardinal coach Steve Sandholm (1983-84). Later in his coaching career, Sandholm is likely the only person in Illinois
to coach at four schools (Rochelle, Jacksonville, Mt. Carroll, Dixon) in one year. The longest recorded basketball game in the county was between Polo and Mt. Morris on Jan. 5, 1968, a 6-overtime win by the Mounders, 79-77. Mt. Morris also has the distinction of winning four straight regionals from 1973 to 1976 in what was the golden era of Mounder boys
basketball. The girls of Mt. Morris also had a run of three straight regional titles in the early 80s. The first girls state tournament sanctioned by the IHSA was not basketball. Instead it was tennis in 1972, perhaps a reflection of tennis being played by females in the decades leading up to then. State tournaments in other
girls sports soon followed throughout the 1970s, with the most memorable from this area being Sterling winning the first-ever basketball tournament contested in 1977. The girls from Byron and Stillman Valley have been downstate three times and Forreston once, in 1981. Oregon, Polo and Rochelle are still waiting for their first sectional title.
Sports Column Government should stay out of the IHSA By Andy Colbert Reporter
A couple weeks ago, this column stated that societal, financial and legalistic considerations had little or no value in addressing the woes of high school athletics. It had to be a spiritual solution instead. Well, a new consideration has come onto the scene – politics. On April 7, the Illinois General Assembly voted 55-51 to pass House Resolution 895, which calls for the IHSA to meet with the Educational Committee for hearings.
Linda Chapa LaVia (D-Aurora), who introduced the resolution, calls for the IHSA to be possibly taken over by the Illinois Board of Education, an arm of state government. What a travesty this would be. Those of us in Illinois know first hand how ineffective and cost-inducing our state government has been in serving the public. Not only is this an inane idea, but shouldn’t there be more important issues for state representatives to address than prying into the affairs of the IHSA? One of Chapa LaVia’s concerns is lack of transparency and accountability by the IHSA, which is based in Bloomington and has 25
full-time employees. For the record, the IHSA is not a hush-hush organization. Its financial books can be found online by anyone who desires to review them. Simply go to the IHSA website and follow the appropriate links. Chapa LaVia is also misinformed on how the IHSA was started. It was not created by the General Assembly, as she seems to believe. It was started in 1900 by a group of high school principals. It has always been a non-profit, private membership group without any association with state government. It should be quite apparent to Chapa LaVia, had she done adequate research, that there is no way the
IHSA could be considered a governmental entity. After all, the IHSA is financially solvent, a concept foreign to those in Springfield. It even returns monies to its member schools, of which there are around 800. The IHSA also service 30,000 coaches, 13,000 officials and 300,000 student-athletes. Probably the biggest role is to administer tournaments in 40 sports and activities. The IHSA has not been without its critics. For decades, it has been bombarded with complaints from parents, coaches, administrators, fans, media, competitors, athletic directors and about anyone else that has a passing interest in interscholastic competition.
That’s just the nature of implementing policies and making hard decisions that not everyone agrees with. On a side note, it’s a shame the state’s populace isn’t as concerned about educational issues as it is for sports. Though the IHSA takes a lot of hits from everyone, at least they have maintained a solid record for the past 114 years of meeting its mission statement of governing the equitable participation in athletics and activities that enrich the educational experience. Could a major factor in the success enjoyed by the IHSA be the absence of government incursion? Go ahead and throw politics on the garbage pile, along with legalism, money and societal mores as one
Andy Colbert more worthless solution to what ails high school sports. If anything, politics has the potential to screw things up even more than the other three items.

Underage drinking to be topic of April 24 meeting Project LEAD to host event at Nash center A town hall meeting on preventing and reducing underage drinking will be held on Thursday, April 24 in Oregon. Lutheran Social Services of Illinois’ (LSSI) - Project LEAD Ogle County will host the public meeting from 6-8 p.m. in the River Room at the Nash Recreation Center, located at 304 S. Fifth St., Oregon. The purpose of the meeting is to help educate participants on preventing and reducing underage drinking. Ogle County law enforcement, Sinnissippi Centers, and Ogle County schools will participate in the event. A presentation and discussion will be held from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. In 2010, the costs incurred nationwide by underage drinking was an estimated $62 billion. The costs just for the state of Illinois were $2.9 billion, for legal costs, medical bills, and other funds that went towards the aftermath of adolescent alcohol use. The cost to individuals and their families, in terms of injury, death, and other consequences of underage drinking is immeasurable.
This event will educate community members about the consequences of underagedrinking, empower communities to make environmental changes to prevent underage drinking, and mobilize communities regarding underage drinking prevention initiatives at local, state, and national levels. “It’s important to bring the community together to discuss the problem of underage drinking, and work together to find solutions,� says Erin Clark, prevention specialist at LSSI’s Project LEAD Ogle County. “In addition, we want to educate the general public about the consequences of adolescent alcohol consumption.� Project LEAD Ogle County is a community coalition working to gather all to the table to discuss issues related to substance abuse. Project LEAD is a coalition of concerned individuals with the mission to create a safer, healthier community by reducing substance abuse through empowering youth and families by partnering with the community and community resources. For many years, LSSI has been helping adolescents and adults in north central Illinois affected by alcohol abuse or addiction to alcohol or drugs, through a continuum of care. This includes prevention, assessments, education,
outpatient and intensive outpatient treatment, DUI evaluations, risk education, anger management and adolescent inpatient treatment, as well as continuing care services for those who have completed any phase of treatment. “LSSI’s services give people hope, and are geared towards prevention, as well as help individuals who are struggling with a substance abuse or addiction issue, or a family member of such a person,� Clark said. “We want people to know help is out there.� Clark said LSSI’s Project LEAD Ogle County is very excited and thankful for all the donations they received for this event. Ogle County Chapter of Thrivent Financial donated a $500 grant, which will be used to provide food for the event as well as door prizes. Felker’s in Byron donated pop and water for the event. Oregon Soap Shoppe made a donation of a door prize.

He is also heard daily on radio stations with his syndicated National Farm Report and syndicated “Samuelson Sez” commentary programs.
In 1998, the American Farm Bureau Federation honored Samuelson with the AFBF Distinguished Service Award. In 1997, the State Fair Junior Livestock Building was renamed the Orion Samuelson Junior Livestock Building as a tribute to Orion’s four decades of service to the agricultural youth of Illinois. In 2001, the University of Illinois conferred Orion with the Honorary Degree of Doctor of Letters. Samuelson, a Huntley
resident, has also received the highest award in the radio industry when he became the first Agribusiness Broadcaster to be inducted into the National Radio Broadcasters Hall of Fame. He is also in the Illinois Broadcaster Hall of Fame, the Illinois 4-H Hall of Fame, the National 4-H Hall of Fame, the ScandinavianAmerican Hall of Fame and the National Association of Farm Broadcasters Hall of Fame.

Dr. Tom Frieden, director of CDC, predicts the poisonings will continue to rise due to a lack of childproofing and the appealing flavorings in some of the products. Poison Control centers reported that the most common adverse effects were nausea, vomiting, and irritation to eyes.

Amber Seebruck
Amber Seebruck earns Comfort Keeper award Amber Seebruck, Byron, earned the prestigious Comfort Keeper of the year award, which will be presented to her at a special luncheon during the annual Comfort Keepers Leadership Conference in Denver, Colo., later this month. Seebruck, a caregiver, also known as a Comfort Keeper,
from the local Comfort Keepers of Northwest Illinois, is one of only seven caregivers chosen from more than 700 Comfort Keepers franchises nationwide to receive this recognition. The Comfort Keepers of the Year are nominated by clients, clients’ family members, peers and Comfort Keepers franchisees who submit the stories of caregivers like Seebruck, who go above and beyond their normal duties to provide exemplary service to their clients. An example of Seebruck’s excellence in quality care is evident in her relationship with a client who suffers from dementia to the point that he no longer speaks. Seebruck takes this gentleman on car rides, where they pipe up the Hank Williams music and both of them sing along. The singing improves his ability to communicate, to the point where he can converse with Seebruck for awhile. “I am excited that Seebruck
was chosen for this award,” says Anne Wilson, who coowns the Northwest Illinois Comfort Keepers with her husband, Jim. “Amber truly embodies the very best values that our caregivers so willingly share with our clients, and she is exactly the type of person I look for when hiring a caregiver. “Seniors prefer to say in their own homes as they age, and I am thrilled to own a business that can make their wishes a reality,” Wilson said. The Wilsons opened the Northwest Illinois Comfort Keepers 13 years ago and have helped hundreds of families throughout the Northwestern Illinois area. Comfort Keepers provides hourly, daily or weekly inhome care services with packages tailored to individual clients’ needs. Packages include companionship, meal preparation, light housekeeping, grocery shopping, incidental transportation, laundry,

Safety tips to avoid hidden dangers from storms Warmer weather brings increased chances for severe thunderstorms and tornadoes in the Midwest and dangerous storms can leave more than damage in their wake Hidden dangers such as electrical hazards and flooding can be left as well. “Be cautious in any cleanup effort,� said Molly Hall, executive director of the Energy Education Council’s Safe Electricity program in a press release. “People can be hurt or killed by hidden hazards such as downed power lines.� Residents are urged to stay away from downed power lines and be alert to the possibility that tree limbs or debris may hide an electrical hazard.
Treat all downed or hanging power lines as if they are energized. Lines do not have to be arcing or sparking to be live. Warn others to stay away, and contact the electric utility. These precautions, provided by Safe Electricity, should be followed following a severe store. s "EFORE RE ENTERING STORM damaged buildings or rooms, be sure all electric and gas services are turned off. Never attempt to turn off power at the breaker box if you must stand in water to do so. If you cannot reach your breaker box safely, call your electric utility to shut off power at the meter. s )F YOU ARE INSPECTING your home in the dark, use a flashlight rather than a candle
or some other open flame to avoid the risk of fire or explosion due to a gas leak. s .EVER STEP IN TO A FLOODED basement or other area if water is covering electrical outlets, appliances or cords. Be alert to any electrical equipment that could be energized and in contact with water. Never touch electrical appliances, cords or wires while you are wet or standing in water. s )F USING ELECTRIC YARD TOOLS IN CLEAN UP EFFORTS DO NOT operate them if it is raining, if the ground is wet or if you are wet or standing in water. Keep all electric tools and equipment at least 10 feet away from wet surfaces. s %LECTRIC MOTORS IN appliances that have been drenched or submerged
should be thoroughly cleaned and reconditioned before they are put back into service. It may be necessary to repair or replace electrical appliances or tools that have been in contact with water. Do not use ANY WATER DAMAGED APPLIANCE until a professional has checked it out. s )F YOU ARE DRIVING AND come upon a downed power line, stay in your vehicle, warn others to stay away and contact emergency personnel or the electric utility. A downed line can cause other things around it to become potentially hazardous. Never drive over a downed line as it could pull equipment or debris down. s )F YOU ARE IN A CAR WHEN A power line comes down on or
around it, stay in your vehicle, warn others to stay away, and call 911. s 7AIT FOR THE UTILITY TO arrive and ensure the line is DE ENERGIZED /NLY IN THE RARE case of fire should you get out, then you must jump free without touching the car and ground at the same time and keep both feet together while hopping to safety. s ! LIVE WIRE TOUCHING THE ground causes electricity to fan out in a pool, and the action of running or striding allows one foot to move from one voltage zone to another. Your body then becomes the path for the electricity and electrocution is the tragic result. Stay in the car if at all possible. For additional information
and safety videos, visit SafeElectricity.org. Safe Electricity is a program of the The Energy Education Council (EEC)— an internationally recognized leader in providing a wealth of safety, efficiency, and renewable energy information. EEC was created and is supported by a diverse group of organizations united by mutually important consumer issues.
