More Funds Needed Even with state grant, $300,000 is still needed for statue repairs By Vinde Wells vwells@oglecounty news.com Even with a state grant on the way, the Black Hawk Restoration Team has to raise the better part of $300,000 for repairs to the area’s best known landmark. The $350,000 state grant approved recently by the Illinois General Assembly, is a matching grant, which means private donors must come up with an equal amount, or in this case slightly more than that, to fix the Black Hawk statue at Lowden State Park. The grant is a 51-49 match, and the 51 percent must come from private sources. At a meeting Monday morning that included State Rep. Tom Demmer (R-Dixon), Restoration Team Chairman Jan Stilson said the estimated cost of the repairs currently sits at $600,000. The fund for the statue’s repair has $59,000 in it. Demmer was on hand to answer questions and to present official copies of the resolution that released the grant money to Stilson and Oregon Mayor Ken Williams. The grant was approved in 2009, but remained tied up by state budget woes until last month. Demmer said that the money previously spent on the

Knoup is appointed as full-time Oregon fire chief Board’s decision is first time in district’s history By Vinde Wells vwells@oglecounty news.com The Oregon Fire Protection District Board made history recently when they appointed the district’s first full-time fire chief. Current fire chief Michael Knoup was made full-time on May 1. Knoup was named chief of the all-volunteer department on Sept. 30, 2016. He will be paid an annual salary of $60,000 plus benefits. According to a June 28 press release from the fire district, the change to a full-time chief had been considered for several months because of growing
demands of the State Fire Marshall’s office, call volume, and to most effectively and efficiently run the department. “This very positive change has been long overdue and will be a tremendous benefit in the district’s ability to provide excellent service to the citizens of the Oregon Fire Protection District,” said board president Steve Carr. Knoup said he is honored to be appointed to this position. With the mounting call volume and increase in administrative demands by outside government agencies, the board decided to hire a fulltime chief to meet the extensive administrative demands, the press release said. At the most recent trustees meeting, Knoup reported that so far this year requests for both fire and ambulance services are up 64 percent in the district, with 500 calls to

that issue. Oregon was the last fire district in the county to provide EMS services. “The addition of EMS services in 2014 was a tremendous improvement in the district’s ability to meet the needs of our tax payers and visitors,” the press release said. Knoup began working in the fire service in 1985 as a firefighter for the Pecatonica Fire Protection District and moved up through the ranks there to become Deputy Chief of Operations. He worked with German Township Fire District in Springfield, Ohio as a firefighter and EMT from 1992 to 1996, and then returned to service in the Pecatonica Fire District. He began working for the Oregon Fire District in 2014 as an EMT working a 24/48 shift. He attained his paramedic license in 2014 as the district

began staffing the ambulance service with two full-time paramedics. After he was appointed Oregon Fire Chief, he continued working as a paramedic on a 24/48 hour shift, fulfilling many of his chief duties while on his shift every third day, as well as putting in additional time as needed. He purchased a home and moved to Oregon in November of 2017. Knoup’s goals will be to improve fire prevention, and ongoing training and education of our firefighters and EMS personnel. He also desires to continue to grow and improve teamwork with the surrounding districts and within the community.

Republican Reporter Serving the Oregon area since 1851 The Oregon Republican Reporter is published weekly by Ogle County Newspapers, a division of the B.F. Shaw Printing Co., Shaw Media. The Oregon Republican Reporter was founded in 1851 as the Ogle County Reporter. In 1889, the Ogle County Republican, a competing newspaper, was started. In 1890, the Republican was sold to Ziba Landers. Upon his death in 1939, the newspaper was assumed by his son, Ernest D. In March 1951, Paul F. Behan, owner of the Reporter, and E.D. Landers and his son E.G. (Tim) Landers united the newspapers into the Republican Reporter. Ernest D. Landers died in 1966, and E.G. and Behan became partners. Eventually, E.G. Landers assumed sole ownership, and in 1985 he sold the newspaper to B.F. Shaw Printing, Dixon. Ogle County Newspapers also prints the Mt. Morris Times, Forreston Journal, and Polo’s Tri-County Press.

I had made a cherry pie from cherries I had picked off a tree there at Riley’s. That sort of clinched the deal with Ralyn. We had a date that night and he said that anytime I wanted to bake a pie for him I could. Now he says I couldn’t take a joke. I only knew him two weeks when we were married. We were married July 3, 1920 and had one daughter by our first wedding anniversary. Ralyn had T. B. partially due from being gassed in World War I. We lived about eight years in Oregon. We lived in the Homer Bockman house on the corner of Sixth and Washington Streets west of Zeigler Garage, also on the east side, and out near Chana on a farm. (The Homer Bockman home was located where the Harvard Bank is now located.) Ralyn had visited in my home of Kansas, and we decided, because of the warm, dry climate, it would be a good place to move. At this time we had three children, 15 months apart. The following was recorded by Ralyn. Virginia Shetter taught world history and world geography at My first job after we were Oregon High School.

The sheriff was Mr. [Sheridan] Dodson followed by Sam Good, of Polo.

New Medicare Cards are arriving in Illinois Mailboxes CMS removes Social Security numbers, increasing fraud protection and consumer experience for millions of Americans The Centers for Medicare &
Medicaid Services (CMS) is mailing new Medicare cards to protect the safety and security of people with Medicare benefits. The new Medicare cards no longer contain a person’s Social Security number, but rather a unique, randomlyassigned Medicare number that protects the identities of people with Medicare reduces fraud and offers better safeguards of important health and financial information. “Removing Social Security numbers from Medicare cards is one of the many
ways CMS is committed to putting patients first and improving the consumer healthcare experience,” said Jackie Garner, Regional Administrator. “This change not only protects Medicare patients from fraud, but also safeguards taxpayer dollars by making it harder for criminals to use Social Security numbers to falsely bill Medicare for care services and benefits that were never performed.” Work on this important initiative was made possible by the enactment of the Medicare Access and CHIP

Reauthorization Act of 2015 (MACRA). CMS began mailing the new Medicare cards to people who currently have Medicare benefits in Illinois this week. Additionally, people who are new to Medicare in Illinois started to receive their new Medicare cards in April along with others across the country when the mailing first began. As soon as people receive their new Medicare card, they should safely and securely destroy their old Medicare card and keep their new Medicare number confidential. Our current mailing strategy allows us to complete the mailings of new cards to all people with Medicare, both new and current enrollees, over the next year. The new Medicare card will not change any of the program benefits and services that eligible people enrolled in
Medicare receive. People with Medicare and their caregivers can visit medicare.gov/newcard to find out when new Medicare cards will be mailed to their area. They can also sign up for email notifications about the new card mailing and check the status in their state. Healthcare providers, suppliers and people with Medicare will be able to use secure look up tools that allow quick access to the new Medicare numbers when needed. There will also be a 21-month transition period for healthcare providers and suppliers to use either the former Social Security-based Medicare number or the new Medicare number to ensure a seamless transition.

First “Farm-to-Table” event is July 20 at Oak Lane Event will feature local chefs and food The Oregon Park District is offering the first ever Farm-to-Table meal on Friday, July 20 at 6 p.m. at Oak Lane, located on Daysville Road, southeast of Oregon. Proceeds from the event will benefit the park district’s youth scholarship fund. The event will take place at 6 p.m. Last year, the park district provided $4,296 in scholarship money to help kids participate in youth sports and recreation programs. Scholarship funds involve no tax dollars and are a direct result of fundraisers supported by Oregon Park District Staff and the community. Recently the Oregon Park District Scholarship Fund received a $5,000 donation from the A. Charles and Lillemore Lawrence Foundation for the Extended Time and Summer Camp program. This donation has spurred Oregon Park District staff to offer the Farm to Table dinner to match these funds.
“The District utilizes the scholarship fund to provide opportunities for those in our school district who otherwise couldn’t afford to participate in programming,” Oregon Park District Executive Director Erin Folk said. “All money utilized for scholarships has either been raised by the staff or donated by local organizations. The fund is uniquely structured. No property tax revenue is utilized for the scholarships. “Unfortunately, with the growing needs for scholarship assistance in our community, a higher demand is being placed on the fund resulting in additional fundraising,” Folk said. Debbie Leffelman, event coordinator, has enlisted various
cooks from the Oregon area to prepare food items from produce and meat raised by local growers and farmers. “Farmers markets have become events with food, music and shopping,” said Leffelman, citing numerous examples, including the conversion of the park district’s farmer’s market in 2017. “The Oregon Farmer’s Market now includes live music, food, vendors and access to downtown merchants on Friday evenings. I wanted to continue to utilize these resources with an event that appeals to foodies and benefits the youth in our community.” The Farm-to-Table event will include auction items, goods for sale, live music and of course food!
“The biggest part of the Farm to Table evening will be a 4-course meal cooked by the local celebrity chefs,” Leffelman said. “A majority of the products used will be locally grown. People love to eat and our hope is to put together an amazing meal people will enjoy while benefiting the youth of the community.” Celebrity chefs include Candace Rivera (Hazel’s); Dave and Marilyn Balch (Ralphie & LuLu’s); Erin Dietrich (Dietrich Farms); Jen Koertner (Jen’s Artisan Bread); Joanne Canfield (Canfield Farms); Joyce Rybicki (White Pines Resort); Lisa Marie Ayres (Lincoln Way Inn Bed and Breakfast); Ralf Herrera (Ralfie’s BBQ); and Whitney Canfield (KSB
Registered Dietician). The concept of Farm-to-Table has been around since at least the early 2000s, when consumers started demanding to know where their food came from and how it was being produced. What was once a social experiment, has become a social movement sweeping the country. It is more than a fad. “Oak Lane has been very generous, offering their beautiful venue to us. A full-service bar will offer drinks for purchase. Wine pairings are included with the four-course meal and ticket price. Tickets are $50 per person or $400 for a reserved table of 8,” said Leffelman. In addition to the four-course meal, Dina Bach will be entertaining the crowd thanks to the generous sponsorship of Circle G Farms. Tickets are on sale now and available by phone, 815-732-3101, or at Nash Recreation Center, 304 S. 5th Street, Oregon. A limited number of tickets will be sold for the event. For more information, contact Debbie Leffelman at Oregon Park District, 815-732-3101.

Public Voice Donations and volunteers equals successful sale Dear Editor, The Chana School Foundation had their annual white elephant sale at the Oregon Coliseum this year on June 1 and 2 which was a great success.  The foundation would like to thank Oregon City Hall for allowing the sale to be held at the Coliseum. Much was done by volunteers before the sale dates in the way of setup of the building, picking up items for the sale, and organizing table after table of things to be sold. Folks also brought in their donated items the day before the sale. Thanks to all those who
donated items for this year’s benefit for the Chana School Museum. This fund raiser would not have been a success without the efforts of so many volunteers, who came and went for four days working an hour to several depending on what free time they had. A true thriving and warm community is filled with volunteer organizations and individuals who make the climate of the community like sunshine, all aglow. Thanks to the Ogle County Life and the Oregon Republican Reporter, news got out to the citizens county wide to rally for this fundraiser. The event was well attended. We are often asked what happens to items that do not sell. Certain clothing items go to local nursing homes for the

Rock River Center News From A4 Medicare should look out for scams and follow these tips: • Medicare will never contact you for your Medicare number or other personal information so you can obtain your new Medicare card. • Don’t pay for your new Medicare card. It’s free. If anyone calls or approaches you and says you need to pay for it,
that’s a scam. • Guard your card. When you get your new card, safeguard it like you would health insurance or credit cards. • Only give your new Medicare Number to doctors, pharmacists, other health care providers, your insurers, or people you trust to work with Medicare on your behalf.

Group has to raise more funds for state’s matching grant From A1 raised by the Friends of the Black Hawk Statue, headed by Sterling resident Frank Rausa. The $31,000 left from those funds is part of the $59,000, mostly of which is in a fund held by the Illinois Conservation Foundation in Springfield. Demmer said that while spending the grant money has no time limit, anything remaining in the fund when the state’s fiscal year ends June 30, 2019 could be delayed by another budget impasse. He also pointed out that the grant will match only its share Jan Stilson, chairman of the Oregon Together Black Hawk Restoration Team, holds a copy of what the repairs cost. For of the budget resolution passed recently by the Illinois General Assembly to fund repairs example, if the repair work to the Black Hawk statue. State Rep. Tom Demmer (R-Dixon), left, presented copies of the comes to only $500,000, the document Monday to Stilson and Oregon Mayor Ken Williams, right. Photo by Vinde Wells state will pay 49 percent of that
or just less than $250,000. However, he said the grant will cover work needed around the base of the statue, as well as the repairs to its surface. Restoration Team Member Karly Spell asked Demmer is QRI is knowledgeable about how to repair the concrete mixture the statue was made of back in December of 1910. Demmer assured her that the firm has the necessary expertise. Spell also asked if Dajnowski might be hired back to finish the job he began back in 2014. “No,” Demmer replied. After a dispute between Dajnowski and then-project engineer Amy Lamb Woods in 2015, the IDNR and Dajnowski did not renew their contract.
Stilson said the committee would like assurances that QRI will follow Dajnowski’s recommendations. Restoration Team member Bill Hefty said the work will not take long once the contracts are in place. “Quality Restorations can do the restoration fairly quickly in 60 days,” he said. The Restoration Team also discussed several fundraisers that are planned in upcoming weeks. An account for donations has been set up at the Stillman Bank, and checks should be made out to Oregon Together: Black Hawk Restoration. For more information contact Stilson at 815-668-1339 or jstilson21@comcast.net.

TAKING FLIGHT Peace& Serenity
Friday, July 6, 2018
It was a day to honor the memories of not only loved ones, but service members, at Serenity Hospice & Home in Oregon on June 30. The hospice home hosted its annual butterfly release, as well as the dedication of the home’s Gazebo memorial and veterans walk. The release of a couple hundred monarch butterflies honored the memories of departed loved ones. The gazebo offers Serenity residents and their families a peaceful place to relax in a scenic setting as well as an opportunity to honor loved ones, courtesy of engraved bricks around the gazebo that people could have personalized for a donation. The veterans walk leading to the gazebo features pavers personalized for a donation with names of service members engraved on them.

Moms and kids get their exercise at Zumbini By Jessie Kern jkern@saukvalley.com Think mommy and me, plus stretching. And singing. And clapping. Aric and Krystal Casey opened American Dream Makers Studios, 208 W. Washington St., in Oregon on June 15. The new yoga studio offers interactive class for mothers and children from infants through age 4 that are designed to help moms care for themselves while also bonding with their bambinos. Classes include aerial yoga, reiki-infused yoga and Zumbini, a collaborative program by BabyFirst and Zumba. “We’re very mom-friendly, because as a mom of four, I’ve learned how difficult it is to practice self-care and make that connection with other women that, I mean, we all need,” Krystal Casey said. Women often end up isolated after having children, and the studio helps them connect with each other while also offering something fun for them to do with their little ones. “As moms, we are usually putting ourselves last and we usually forget to take care of ourselves,” she said. “I’ve learned that a lot of times selfcare is something as simple as having a cup of coffee with a friend.” Practicing self-care can impact your day, your life, and even your parenting and how your children turn out, she said. Zumbini is great for children because music is proven to be beneficial for their development, and the class introduces them to rhythm, finding the beat, using instruments and unfamiliar sounds. “Of course that’s helping
their cognitive development, their fine-motor skills and gross-motor skills, as we’re rhyming and singing and clapping, all that fun stuff,” she said. The class is also a great opportunity for mother-child bonding, she said. “So that’s the big draw for me to offering it here, is that it’s a really fun class that you can do with your children.” Nikki Tobler, 34, of Davis Junction, attends Zumbini class with daughters Allie, 1, and Alexis, 3. The girls love it, and it’s something active and good for them to do on hot summer days, Tobler said, adding that it’s difficult to find something they both can do at the same time. “I was just looking for something active for the girls, something for them to do, and there’s really not anything in our area that’s 0 to 4,” Tobler said. Abby said her favorite part

of Zumbini is when she gets to play the guitar and sing the Breakfast Song. “We try to have more modern, fun music that the moms will enjoy as well as the kids,” Casey said. The class isn’t very
structured, so they can be as active – or inactive – as they want, and the women can spend time with other mothers without the pressure of
worrying about their children’s behavior being perfect. “We’re nonjudgmental, there’s no intimidation or anything like that – our classes
are fun and they’re meant to boost your confidence and make you feel good and happy, and not intimidated or stressed,” Casey said.

Reagan Run is ready to see more than 1,000 entries By Andy Colbert acolbert@oglecounty news.com The running boom, which first began in the 1970s, continues to increase in size with the community of Dixon exhibiting just how encompassing it has become. On Saturday, July 7, more than 1,000 entrants will be joining together in one huge party at the Petunia Festival’s 5K Reagan Run. It is a celebration of family members and friends running together, elites chasing awards, others on a wellness kick and some on an initial journey to longer distances, such as marathons. Running has taken hold in communities large and small
all over the country. It has come a long way since it was only the domain of top-level males. The most recent Boston Marathon had nearly as many female finishers as males. About 50 years ago, females weren’t allowed to enter it because of chauvinistic views. How could someone as fragile as a girl possibly run 26 miles was the school of thought? That mind set began to change in 1967 when Kathrine Switzer entered as K.L. Switzer and finished in 4:20 without much of a problem, other than the meet director trying to physically remove her from the course once word got out an actual female was running. In a famous photo, Switzer’s 215-pound boyfriend can be seen body slamming the meet
official out of the way after he came on the course to remove the bib number from Switzer. It was also a symbolic blow to the blatant sexism that existed at the time. But, it wasn’t until 1972 that women were finally allowed into the Boston Marathon. Soon afterwards, everyday people took up jogging and one major reason was women stepping up for their rights as an athlete. Recently, women have overtaken men in participation numbers for half marathons. There is also a youth movement afoot in running. Kids of all ages will be toeing the line at the Reagan Run. Dixon has experienced much success in distance running at the high school and junior high
and one factor is the Reagan Run. Get kids interested early, like Evan Thorpe attempts to do, and you stand a decent chance of developing potential. A huge event like the Petunia Festival 5K may be just the vehicle to entice a youngster. It certainly is less expensive than the thousands of dollars some parents spend on club sports for their kids. The only equipment needed is a pair of running shoes and those don’t have to be fancy either. Don’t forget about the older crowd either. Last year, 38 men and women age 65 and over completed the Reagan Run. In 27th place was 51-year old Steve Brenner of Sterling, with 53year old Mike Grady of Dixon not too far behind in 36th.
The oldest finisher in this year’s Boston Marathon was an 85-year-old woman. Besides the obvious health benefits, running affords a person the solitude and comfort often lacking in team sports. In training runs, it is normally just you and nature. However, there is a palpable sense of excitement come race day, be it the Reagan 5K or an ultra marathon on the trails. It is a chance to mingle with hundreds of other like-minded folks. Though there is an element of competition, friendships supersede that. Ask last year’s 5K winner Jacob Gebhardt of Sterling about that. For the past few years, he has dueled with Matt Richtman, of Kaneland, and Stephen
Poorten, of Sycamore, more times than he can remember in conference, sectional and state competition. It was Richtman that bested Gebhardt for the cross-country state title by less than a second, this after Gebhardt did the same to Richtman and Poorten at the sectional. The end result was not Gebhardt bemoaning a lost state title, but three seniors from different schools becoming good friends through a shared journey. Unlike other sports where the difference between winning and losing can be devastating, runners cheer each other on. This is evident at any track or cross-country meet and will also be on full display at the Reagan Run on Saturday.
