​Hennepin votes on storm sewer project By Goldie Rapp

news@putnamcountyrecord.com

HENNEPIN — The Hennepin Village Board met in a special meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 30, to take action on the storm sewer project on Locust Street. Village engineer Bill Shafer reported the streets committee had met the previous week with Hennepin resident Charlie Judd who provided a solution to the storm sewer issue at a much lower cost. As previously reported, the storm sewer project was originally put out for bid by the board, with the lowest bid

Seeds to harvest PC Elementary’s gardening program By Dave Cook

news@putnamcountyrecord.com

HENNEPIN — For the third year, fifthgrade students at Putnam County Elementary have begun their school year with “Gardening: Seeds to Harvest,” a cool weather outdoor gardening project sponsored by the University of Illinois Extension office in conjunction with 4-H. For six weeks master gardeners make weekly visits to the classroom gardens and guide students through the entire process of growing a successful garden. For many students, this project is their introduction to 4-H. At the beginning of the program, they are enrolled with the help of 4-H youth development and program coordinator Anne Scheel. “Our master gardeners are here to teach you a small piece of our junior master gardener program. For the next six weeks these ladies will come visit you and you are going to plant a garden, weed a garden, watch your garden grow and then you’ll eat your garden,” said Scheel. She then turned the program over to master gardeners Sharon Gallup, Barb Dahlbach and Pattie Ong who directed the class outside. As the class gathered around the small, raised bed garden, the master gardeners wasted no time in getting to work. The students quickly impressed their teachers by demonstrating a knowledge of gardening and the conditions needed for a successful growing environment. Weeding was, unsurprisingly, the first task the class faced. “Weeds are fighting for all the nutrition and our plants won’t have a chance to grow, so we need a couple of volunteers to pull weeds. After we’re done today, you’ll see vegetables begin to come up in 7-10 days. Don’t pull anything out of the soil until we learn what each plant looks like. You’ll learn what everything is when we have weed identification next week,” said Gallup. Students then added fresh soil to the

coming in at $123,351. The village was only expecting to spend around $85,000 on the project. Shafer said after checking into some things related to Judd’s idea, the idea wouldn’t completely cure the issue. Shafer reported he was able to take the original project plans that came in at $123,351, and by going back and eliminating some materials, labor costs and changing piping material he was able to get the cost of the project down to $105,000. He also proposed an alternative to the project, which would eliminate some work on the project, but still address the problem of storm water backing up

into the yards of property owners near Locust Street. He estimated the alternative would cost around $60,000. Shafer said the alternative would provide better flow, however the village would eventually need to do maintenance work later on down the road. Board member Matt Dean asked for Shafer’s opinion on whether or not the $60,000 alternative would be able to solve the current issues. Shafer said he would not have recommended the idea to the board if he felt like the alternative wouldn’t work. Board member Quentin Buffington pushed for the village to go with the $105,000 project. He said for $40,000

more, the village could complete the project that was designed to eliminate the issue entirely. “Plan B does leave us open for some future expenses and we don’t know what that future expense could be,” he said. Shafer confirmed the village could always do the remaining $40,000 of the project at a later date if they wished. A motion was made to rebid the project and reduce the scope of the project to $60,000. The board voted 3-1, with Buffington voting no, and Dean and board members Karyn Christiansen and Teresa Clausen voting yes. Comment on this story at www.putnamcountyrecord.com.

‘Just go ...’ Vern Gimbal (aka Scooty) and his scooter By Dave Cook

news@putnamcountyrecord.com

GRANVILLE — It’s been said that four wheels move the body, and two wheels move the soul. As motorcycles continue each year to get bigger, faster and more powerful, it’s refreshing to see it isn’t speed and horsepower holding the keys to enjoying two wheels. The ride itself is where the pleasure lies. Vern Gimbal, a Granville resident who turned 90 on Thursday, Sept. 17, has spent the last 15 years enjoying the road on one of the four scooters he’s owned since he began riding. Gimbal grew up without a bicycle and didn’t get his first bike until he was in his 40s. He and his wife, Mary, enjoyed bicycling for many years. As his legs began to grow weary, Vern realized he could no longer comfortably pedal a bike. While Mary was at the beauty parlor one day, looking at her stylist’s mirror, she noticed a photo of a scooter for sale by the stylist’s daughter. “He’d always kind of had his eyes on a scooter,” said Mary. “When I came home that night, there was a scooter sitting on the sidewalk,” Vern said. Mary is pleased to see Vern enjoying himself on the road, but is happy he’s not interested in motorcycles. He’s certainly a fan of being on two wheels, but Vern is no thrill seeker. Unlike most riders, Vern has never had the urge to fully open the throttle.

Vern Gimbal, 90, of Granville, astride his trusty Buddy 50 scooter. Gimbal and his scooter are a familiar sight around Granville and at Putnam County girls’ softball games. “I’ve been 30 (mph), that’s all, and that’s when I was in a hurry. I just love to ride,” Vern said. When asked what he loves about riding, Vern answered, “I don’t know. I can’t tell you ... just go. There’s nothing I’d rather do than sit on the scooter and go. If I’m hurting real bad, I take a little ride, and I feel better. I don’t’ understand it. I just do.” “It relaxes him, and he does a lot of errands,” Mary said. Vern’s time on two wheels hasn’t been entirely unevent-

ful. He doesn’t quite know how it happened, but he once took a spill after striking a curb. “I laid there for a minute and then got up. A man and a woman stopped and offered me some paper towels for the cut on my forehead. They asked me if I wanted to go to the hospital, and I said ‘No.’ Then I got on my scooter and rode home. I’ve been very careful ever since,” said Vern. Vern has shown he has some of the rebellious spirit which is often associated

with two wheels. “When he had the spill downtown, the cop told him it was time to hang it up. So Vernon did. He sold it to his cousin. And then he went and bought another one,” said Mary. “He said, ‘You’re stubborn, aren’t you?’” laughed Vern, telling of the next time he saw the officer. Vern’s current scooter is a 2012 Genuine Scooter Company Buddy 50. Of the four

bed, breaking up the large clumps and spreading the soil evenly. They were then instructed how to prepare the soil for seeding, where to plant and how to make a straight and identified row. “We let them do everything. The rows may be crooked or they may come up bad. The first year we did it, they may have planted too deeply and half their garden didn’t come up so we replanted with them and everything came up. If they make a mistake we tell them they have to learn and then we help them,” said Gallup. Each garden has a crop of mixed lettuces, Swiss chard, radishes, spinach, onions and snow peas. For additional experience and for a more flavorful salad, the master gardeners also brought along pots of basil and rosemary which the students will have to care for. Teachers select two students a day to go outside and water the garden between visits from the master gardeners. At the end of the program, the vegetables and herbs are harvested, cleaned, taste tested, rated and then made into a salad for the students to enjoy. “I’m impressed with how much these fifth graders

know,” said Dahlbach. After three years with the school program and with the success of their other programs, the master gardeners are seeing their work blossom. “Each year we’re seeing more children who have gardened before and have some knowledge, it’s catching on,” said Gallup. “I can ride right up to the game and stay on my scooter without having to walk,” said Vern. His attendance at the games and support of the team is well appreciated. “The girls bring me a hot dog, a soda and a Snickers bar, and they always tell me I’m not allowed to pay,” laughed Vern. “I love watching the girls play softball. They call me ‘Scooty’ and even gave me a Putnam County jersey that says ‘Scooty’ on the back,” said Vern proudly.

Mautino still in the running for auditor general position SPRINGFIELD — Four finalists remain in the Illinois Legislative Audit Commission’s search to replace retiring Auditor General William Holland. The commission has been actively searching for candidates since Holland announced his intent to retire. An LAC Search Subcommittee reviewed a total of 14 applications, conducted background checks, and last week interviewed seven candidates before narrowing to four finalists. The four candidates include: • State Rep. Frank Mautino of Spring Valley: Mautino serves as Deputy Majority Leader in the Illi-

nois House and chief negotiator on major legislative issues. • Mary Modelski, CIA, CISA, CGAP, of Walnut Creek, Calif.: Modelski, a Hoffman Estates native, is a division chief for Internal Audit for Alameda County, Calif. • State Rep. Elaine Nekritz of Northbrook, Ill.: Nekritz is an Assistant Majority Leader in the Illinois House and an attorney. • Attorney Larry Sanders of Marion, Ill.: Sanders is the General Counsel of the Rend Lake Conservancy District. He served as senior partner of Sanders & Sanders, where he represented many

southern Illinois school districts. “The Auditor General serves as our partner in our effort to ensure fairness, transparency, and accountability in state government,” said LAC Co-Chair State Senator Jason Barickman (R-Bloomington). “This is why it’s so important that we find the best candidates for the position.” The Audit Commission will make its recommendation to the General Assembly from the remaining candidate pool. The legislature has the final authority to choose the auditor general and statute requires that the successful candidate be selected by a

three-fifths majority vote in both the Illinois House of Representatives and the Illinois Senate. The auditor general is a constitutional officer charged with the audit of public funds of the state. In addition, the auditor general performs investigations and efficiency, management, and program audits at the direction of the legislature or the Legislative Audit Commission. State law requires that each state agency be audited every two years. “Our next auditor general will have a tough act to follow, as current Auditor General Bill Holland has built an impeccable repu-

PRINCETON — The Bureau Putnam Area Rural Transit (BPART) will be led by a new transportation director, as former Director Larry Kerrick has decided to step down, effective immediately due to health issues. Kerrick has served the role as transportation director for BPART throughout the last two years. “Larry has provided valuable service to the citizens of Bureau County for many years, and I am especially grateful for his recent leadership of BPART,” said Jeff Dean, president/ CEO of Gateway Services Inc. of Princeton.

Farm-to-Table dinner highlights local growers From the Ground Up celebrates its first season of success By Dave Cook

news@putnamcountyrecord.com

PRINCETON — No one traveled very far for the Farm-to-Table dinner, including the ingredients. The entire meal for the dinner The entire meal was sourced from local growers in celebration of their contributions to area farmers’ markets, healthy eating and the success of the first year of the From the Ground Up farmers’ market loyalty program sponsored by the Bureau and Putnam County Health Department. Continuing the theme of locality, the four-course gourmet meal, which was served Wednesday, Sept. 30, at the Bureau County Metro Center, was masterfully crafted by Chef Monika Sudakov from Sheffield’s Chestnut Street Inn. Chef Monika, already well known for her fondness of cooking with locally sourced ingredients, volunteered her time to help showcase the bounty of area growers. “What a great night. We celebrated the season in royal style, with delicious, local, farm fresh food prepared by Chef Monika in the company of the growers themselves. Every course was a treat for taste and health,” said the health department’s Joy Kauffman. Those who completed their loyalty program punch cards were entered into a drawing with the prize of tickets to the dinner. Those lucky enough to have their names drawn

dined alongside the growers from area markets and other ticket holders. In the time between the main course and dessert, Kauffman introduced the farmers present and listed the items which they had provided for the dinner. This created a very unique dining experience, as it’s certainly unusual to be able to sit across the table from the people who have contributed every aspect of your evening’s meal and learn firsthand about where the ingredients originated as they share the stories behind the different farms. Edgewood Farm Organic’s Katy Clarke, who supplied the salad’s baby spinach, kale and garlic, said “Monika wowed us once again with her skills as a fresh produce chef. More importantly, the $25 price for dinner was refreshing and the volunteer staff rocked it.” The first course of the night was a savory butternut squash soup with a small dollop of creme fraiche and topped with crispy bacon and a leaf of fried sage. The second course was a salad of mixed greens, salad tomatoes, perfectly roasted beets, radish and sweet baby turnip, all topped with a large, lightly fried squash blossom which had been stuffed with seasoned goat cheese and served with a balsamic dressing. The main course was a roasted pork loin topped with roasted vegetable caponata and served with a side of herb mashed sweet potatoes, crispy kale and nasturtium. The final jewel of the evening was an apple creme brulee topped with dehydrated apples and a sprig of fresh mint. Every course was a subtle and impeccable marriage of flavors to enjoy. “This is the type of dessert you

Chef Monika Sudakov just want to eat slowly and enjoy the flavors,” said Coneflower Farm’s Dennis Zehr. Kauffman shared some of the results from the successful loyalty program. One hundred percent of the farmers involved felt the program and associated marketing was helpful to their business, and they look forward to participating in the program next year. Eighty-three percent felt it had expanded their customer base between 20 and 40 percent and the same percentage had an increase in repeat customers. Sixty-seven percent made more money than they did at the same markets last year, and 42 percent added new land for their produce cultivation this year. “We look forward to the future of helping residents of Bureau and Putnam counties build their health through local foods and markets. We are so pleased to see the impact we’ve made,” said Kauffman.

ISP will conduct Occupant Restraint Enforcement Patrols LASALLE — Illinois State Police (ISP) District 17 troopers will conduct Occupant Restraint Enforcement Patrols (OREP) in LaSalle County during the month of October. OREP allows the ISP to target an area with saturation patrols that focus on traffic violations and related compliance with safety belt and child safety seat laws. Safety belt enforcement zones will also be set-up to ensure the driver and passengers are buckled up. Illinois law requires all vehicle passengers (front and back) to be buckled up. Safety belts are one of

the most effective safety devices in vehicles today, estimated to save over 12,000 lives each year. Over half of vehicle occupants killed in a traffic crash were not properly buckled up. The objective of the program is to increase compliance of occupant restraint laws through education, child seat inspections and enforcement. Great awareness, acceptance and use of occupant protection equipment will save many lives. This project is funded through the Illinois Department of Transportation’s Division of Traffic Safety.

The Editorial Page Observations from the Field of Dreams

Sam R Fisher

Editor

Chasing happy According to David Jeremiah, if you type “happy” into Google, more than 650 million entries will come up. Clearly, we are obsessed with becoming happy. And that begs me to think, with all of the luxury items and abilities our society has, why can’t we find happiness? Shouldn’t that weekly mani/pedi, 80-inch TV, double chocolate cookie dough custard with caramel and fudge swirls (I definitely thought about that one too much), and 50-pound weight loss and makeover job fix that itch? Or what about those dime a dozen selfhelp books? Why are we so happy-void people anyway? What does it even mean to be happy? That’s a puzzler right there. I’m not actually sure Danae if I have a conRoss crete answer, but I have experienced COMMENTARY the symptoms of what I’d call happiness: Peace, contentment in my situation, a smile that refuses to leave my face. And the funniest part is that it never seems to happen when I try one of those get-happy techniques. Correct me if I’m wrong, but I’m never looking for happiness when it hits me. I believe this revelation began earlier this year with God nudging me a little, bugging me to really seek Him out and get off my butt and start doing something for Him. I was in an uncomfortable place, dealing with some struggles I couldn’t seem to overcome, and my pitiful routine simply wasn’t working. So I began intentionally reading my Bible and searching for my “place” in life. At the time I still didn’t even know what I wanted my major to be, and that was really weighing on me. Like, come on God, I’ve put all this work into school, so why haven’t you given me insight about this perfect plan you have? Everybody and their brother tells me you have one, but I’m sorta thinking mine got tossed in a trash bin somewhere. So amidst my searching I stumbled upon Beachbody, a fitness and health company that helps people lose weight, get fit, feel good, gain financial stability, all the works. I really wanted to try one of the products but didn’t want to pay full price, so I signed up as a coach to get the discount. Shortly after falling in love with it, though, I decided I actually wanted to coach and help people gain back health and confidence in themselves. I struggled enough with eating myself (and still do sometimes) that I never want someone else to have to deal with that alone. So I started posting about my routine, healthy recipes, workouts and how God was helping me do all of this and changing my heart in the process. It was SO out of my comfort zone. I almost never posted much on social media before this and was sure people were thinking, “Who does this girl think she is? How annoying.” But after getting really honest and connecting all of my struggles and accomplishments in health and fitness to a God who is greater than any issue I face, people started reaching out to me, thanking me for the posts, seeking out my opinion and help, talking to me about God and my faith. At first my introverted self was slightly overwhelmed that anyone was even reading the posts, but then it motivated me to work even harder at it, to be intentional about my faith-health journey and make it a consistent habit to write posts, reach out and encourage people, and pour into the fitness challenge groups I was running (and still do) as a coach. Each little conversation, the uplifting ones as well as the challenging ones, brought me more and more purpose. They brought me joy and a deep sense of peace that I was doing the right thing. I am not perfect, and I don’t have all of the answers; I was simply being honest about my journey and showing people the constant work God was doing in my heart. And it made me genuinely happy. Not because I was serving myself or looking for ways to make myself happy, but because I was attempting to serve others and glorify God with what He was doing in my life, right where I was. Right where I am now. I haven’t graduated college yet, figured out where I will work, where I will live, who I will marry; I don’t have much money; my car is always on the fritz; my family argues a few times too many; I mess up; get moody, fail ... yet none of that matters. In the midst of my average life I find happiness on a regular basis when I seek out God and try to serve others and

I want to thank all the great people who came last Friday evening to the Alleman Field of Dreams. It’s really true: If you build it, they will come. I also want to thank my Putnam County Rotary Club for helping host the Field of Dreams night. Thank you to the following people: Scott Shore for his input in getting the Sunset Cinema to show the movie, “Field of Dreams,” and to Carrie Brown for her donation; Bobby and Darlene Cofoid and the Dysart-Cofoid Funeral Home for making the free popcorn for everyone who attended; Darlene printed the nice colored programs that Scott Shore put together; Dave Shaw from Oak Park Estates for providing parking; Randy Steffens for donating his golf cart and time for giving people rides; Dixie, my long-time friend from the Graphic Electronics in Spring Valley for the beautiful plaques for the ghost players; my daughter-in-law, Dianne, for sending and receiving emails from my friend, Frank Dardis, the ghost player from Peosta, Iowa; Rotarian and Jeanne’s second-grade student who she loved, Justina Boggio Chlum, and her husband, Kevin Chlum, for the 50/50 tickets; and Mary Kay Rue for buying 50/50 tickets and winning it, and thanks to her for bringing her two granddaughters. I would also like to thank Betty and Lisa Johnson for passing out the programs; Mike and Anna O’Sullivan from the Hidden Paradise Sign Shop; Putnam County High School ag teacher John Heider for bringing his FFA students who cooked pork chops and hot dogs; Brett Carlson for his help drying out the field; Bobby Cofoid for the flood lights; my two sons, Kim and Scott, for raking and preparing the diamond; Jennifer Spratt for her nice article; Shannon Serpette for her great article in the Putnam County Record titled, “The place where dreams come true,”; the ghost players, Keith Rahe, founder of the ghost players, Marv Maiers, team manager and starting catcher, Hank Lucas, movie ghost and former pitcher for the Dodgers, Mike Ehlers, Mike Schuster and Charlie Huberty, all Granville returnees, Jumping Joe Scherrman, Granville rookie and ghost head event, and Frank Dardis, movie ghost and as he said a huge fan of Granville. Words cannot thank these great, nice ball players enough. They come here free, they will not take money because they say they come to entertain the children of our communities. I’d also like to thank Beth Dardis, Frank’s lovely wife, who Jeanne

Darrell Alleman COMMENTARY became close friends with immediately when they met. Beth sold memorabilia from the Field of Dreams in Dyersville. Thursday, the afternoon of Sept. 10, I stood at the door of my Morton shed watching the rain on the Field of Dreams, finally water puddles showed up on the infield. I thought, “How can we play tomorrow on this field?” Friday morning, I went out early, shoveled the water out of the large puddles. At 10 a.m., I lightly scratched the infield, again at 12, later my sons’ kept raking it. It was ready at 5:30 p.m. People started coming at 5 p.m. The ghost players came out of the corn field. They were introduced. Ghost player Keith Rahe told the crowd that this place is the real America, and that he could tell that the people in this community love their children. Frank Dardis presented me with a gift for Jeanne, a Field of Dreams baseball shirt for her remembrance. Randy Borio asked for a moment of silence for Jeanne. The ghost players picked 12 children out of the crowd. Frank

Dardis picked my 5-year-old great grandson, Logan Kimme, from Sugar Grove, not knowing he was mine. What a coincidence. They had each child bat as they played their bag of tricks on them as the crowd watched and laughed. The ghost players then posed for photos and did autographs for everyone who asked. Then a large crowd of firefighters, EMTs and police officers walked on the field and stood at attention in front of the movie screen to applause from the crowd. There was a moment of silence. The screen showed the U.S. flag waving while the Star-Spangled Banner played, honoring the hundreds of firefighters, EMTs and police officers who died in the collapse of New York’s World Trade Center twin towers 14 years ago on Sept. 11, 2001. The movie, “Field of Dreams,” was shown to a pretty large crowd despite the cool evening. During the movie, I was standing by my grandson, Kyle Kimme, while watching it, and he said to me, “Poppa D., this is really awesome, watching the ‘Field of Dreams’ movie on the Field of Dreams.” Thanks again to the great people who put the evening on and the great people who attended, including a couple from the UK. I love you all in a special way! Darrell Alleman can be reached at news@putnamcountyrecord.com.

honor Him amongst my daily adventures. So I guess the point of this rat trail is that happiness is not something you buy. It’s not something you chase after. It finds you. It sneaks up behind you when you stop searching for it; forget about yourself, and start putting your efforts into living

the life God gave you with intention. Doing your best to use your gifts and belongings to love on and help others. It doesn’t have to be lavish or perfect. Simply come as you are and say, “God I don’t have much to offer, but use me today and I will do my best to obey.” And you can get all that for a

charge of zero dollars and zero cents, free advice from the nosebleed section. I can’t say that it is a quick road to happiness, but give it a try and I guarantee good results, no warranty or return policy needed. Danae Ross of Wyanet is a junior at Judson University.

Local 4-h clubs invite children to be new members One out of every seven adults in the U.S. is a former 4-H member. Clubs are accepting new members this month to grow that number even higher. 4-H members in the county will join the 6 million youth across the country in celebrating National 4-H Week, Oct. 4-10. 4-H youth development programs provide hands-on learning activities for youth in Illinois and throughout the country. 4-H youth programs focus on leadership, citizenship and life skills.

Every county in Illinois has a 4-H program which is operated through University of Illinois Extension. 4-H club membership is open to youth aged 8 to 18. Youth 5 to 7 years of age may join the 4-H Cloverbud program. There are several ways to participate in 4-H. Youth may join 4-H community clubs, coordinated by local certified adult volunteers. Each club decides how often it meets, the location of its meetings and the activities held during the meet-

ing. Members may select from more than 100 different project areas to study while they build leadership, teamwork, cooperation, decision-making and communication skills. Youth may also choose to focus on a very specific project area and join a club specifically related to that one project. Robotics, photography, gardening, visual arts and nutrition, are just a few of the popular topics for special interest clubs. One may also participate in 4-H through

short term projects held during school or at after school youth organizations. Some of these popular groups teach youth about caring for the environment, preparing for a career, making healthy choices or other priority issues which build a person’s life skills. To learn more about 4-H and enroll a child in a local club, contact your local extension office. Extension offices are located in Princeton, Ottawa, Henry and in Oglesby on the IVCC campus.
