Fun for these children is spelled C-O-U-S-I-N C-A-M-P. For the past 10 years, John and Bob-
bie Bohnenkamp of Thief River Falls have hosted what they call Cousin Camp. The event
allows their children and their cousins to get together and establish a bond. The children
pictured are: (from left, back row) Kaitlyn, Megan, Lexi, Anna, Abby and Aubree; (front row)

Cousin Camp brings
family together
by David Hill
Editor
In this day and age when
it seems more difficult than
ever to keep families to-
gether one local resident has
found a way to strengthen
the bonds of his extended
family.
It's called "Cousin Camp."
In its tenth year, John
Bohnenkamp of Thief River
Falls said it all started be-
cause when he was growing
up he rarely got to spend
time with his cousins, and he
wanted more for his three
daughters Anna, Grace and
Mollie. He wanted them to
have a good and active rela-
tionship with their cousins.
So, for three days every
summer, John and Bobbie
Bohnenkamp host Cousin
Camp. The number one goal
is to get everyone together.
The second goal is to have ac-
tivities the children don't
normally get to do. The third
goal is for everyone to try
some food that they normally
don't eat.
Some of the past activities
have included providing
jumping houses, a slushy
machine, a cotton candy ma-
chine, ATV mud run, egg
toss, dunk tank, swimming,
boating and a tour of Arctic
Cat.
This year, during the
weekend of Aug. 16 and 17,
the 10 youngsters (including
Noah, Mollie, Ally, Grace,
Aubrey, Abby, Anna, Lexi,
Megan and Kaitlyn) , ages 5
to 17 and their parents (John
and Bobbie, Tammy and
Jamy and April and Aaron),
and John's parents (Mel and
Bonnie) will be able to ride
ATVs, go on a hay wagon
ride, play games, maze, and
shoot clay pigeons.
Bohnenkamp said that most
have never been exposed to
shooting sports.
Other activities will in-
clude campfires, story time,
and swimming in an 18-foot
swimming pool.
Has it worked?
Bohnenkamp said the kids
are the best of friends. Dur-
ing the year, they call and
text each other to discuss
homework and friends.
He said the extended fam-
ily are all on Facebook and as
the time of year for Cousin
Camp comes around, they all
start talking and wondering
what activities are planned
this year.
The family has a common
bond by virtue of being re-
lated, but Bohnenkamp said
Cousin Camp gives the fam-
ily a common cause and
Since the Bohnenkamp Cousins Camp began 10 years ago, the children and their parents
have shared many memories. (Submitted)
Bonds sold
for meter
system
by April Scheinoha
Reporter
The Thief River Falls City
Council has authorized the
issuance and awarded the
sale of $1,615,000 in General
Obligation Equipment Cer-
tificates of Indebtedness. The
motion was approved at the
council meeting Tuesday,
Aug. 19. The bonds were sold
to pay for the citys advanced
meter reading system.
Robert W. Baird & Co Inc.
in Milwaukee purchased the
bonds for $1,675.640.10.
Other bidders were UMB
Bank of Kansas City, Mo.;
FTN Financial Capital Mar-
kets of Memphis, Tenn.; and
City Securities Corp. of Indi-
anapolis. The certificates will
have a 10-year term and a
true interest cost of 1.79 per-
cent. The city will pay for the
certificates with utility fees.
Standard & Poors has as-
signed an AA rating to the
bonds.
In May, the council ap-
proved increasing residential
and commercial electric cus-
tomer charges by $1.40 per
month and $3.60 per month,
respectively, to cover the cost
of advanced meters for elec-
tricity. Four months earlier,
to cover the cost of advanced
meters for water usage, it ap-
proved a $0.50 per month in-
crease across the board for
water customers no matter
the size of the water pipe
serving the property.
The advanced meter read-
ing system will enable the
departments to read meters
remotely. It will notify Elec-
tric Department personnel
when and where there is an
outage. It will also enable
them to remotely disconnect
electricity when someone is
moving out of a home.
On Monday, Aug. 18, the
city began installing electric
substation improvements to
accommodate the new sys-
tem. Installation of the new
meters for residential and
commercial properties is ex-
pected to begin in late Sep-
tember or early October.
The council approved a
conditional use permit for
Epiphany Station. The
church has purchased the
former Master Bakery Outlet
for classrooms and a home at
415 Main Ave. N. for office
space. Both buildings are lo-
cated north of the church
building. Churches are a con-
ditional use in the Downtown
Fringe (C-4) zone.
City Council approved
the citys participation in
the Pine to Prairie Vio-
lent Crime Task Force
with a final determina-
tion to be made at the
Sept. 2 council meeting. It
appears that the city of Thief
River Falls and Pennington
County will participate in the
task force at least as an asso-
ciate member at a cost of
$10,000 each. The Penning-
ton County Board has al-
ready approved its
participation, but it was
SWCD
hosts
tour of
projects
Water and
conservation
projects observed
by Scott DCamp
Reporter

The Pennington Soil
Water and Conservation Dis-
trict hosted a 13-stop project
tour on Wednesday, Aug. 20.
Thirty-five people with an in-
terest in soil and/or water
conservation participated in
the two and a-half-hour tour.
Peter Nelson, water plan
coordinator with the SWCD,
said there isnt a set schedule
for holding project tours.
Tours are scheduled around
the completion of projects.
The two previous tours were
held in 2008 and 1998, re-
spectively, which coincided
with the 60th and 50th an-
niversaries of the SWCD.
The main reasons for
holding project tours is to
show to leaders of the com-
munity what kind of conser-
vation projects the SWCD
works on and to show them
potential projects, Nelson
said. It gives them a greater
understanding of how the
projects function and it's a
great opportunity for those
members of the community
to see projects on the
ground, rather than just
hearing about them at meet-
ings or reading about the
projects.
The 13 stops on Wednes-
days tour included a mixture
of completed projects and fu-
ture projects that are await-
ing funding.
Jerome Street
The first stop was the
completed Jerome Street
bank stabilization project.
The project, which was com-
pleted in 2010, was the result
of a cooperative effort be-
tween the SWCD, city of
Thief River Falls and Red
Lake Watershed District.
The SWCD was ap-
proached by five landowners
who were concerned about
bank erosion that would
eventually lead to their
homes and property slump-
ing into the red lake river. A
700-foot stretch of bank was
stabilized by adding dirt and
riprap to create a shelf at the
flood plane elevation.
Ralph Engelstad Arena
rain garden
The Ralph Engelstad
Arena campus fills two city
blocks and is 85 to 90 percent
covered by asphalt and con-
crete. Due to the abundance
of impervious surface, rain-
fall events typically over-
whelm storm sewers and
inundate roads and side-
walks.
The recently-completed
rain gardens can hold ap-
proximately 3.05 acre-feet of
water during a one-inch rain-
fall event. Runoff water is
then slowly released into the
soil or storm sewer through
underground tile lines.
Halvorson streambank
stabilization
Located about three miles
north of Thief River Falls on
the Thief River, the Halvor-
son streambank was stabi-
lized using a combination of
riprap and stream barbs to
stabilize the riverbank,
Airport
gets
funds
U.S. Senators Amy
Klobuchar and Al Franken
along with Representative
Collin Peterson announced
last week that the Depart-
ment of Transportation has
awarded the Thief River
Falls Airport $108,000 for in-
frastructure improvements.
A 21st-century economy
demands a 21st-century
transportation network,
Klobuchar said. Investing in
the Thief River Falls Airport
promotes economic develop-
ment in the region and helps
ensure that Minnesota air-
ports remain safe and reli-
able for years to come.
Airports are critically im-
portant to communities
across Minnesota, said
Franken. These grants will
modernize our airport infra-
structure, improve airport
safety in Thief River Falls,
help create jobs, and go a
long way towards updating
Minnesotas overall trans-
portation infrastructure.
Investing in area trans-
portation helps maintain and
improve the local economy,
Peterson said. This grant
will allow the Thief River
Falls Regional Airport

TRF man sentenced for stealing vehicle
A Thief River Falls man
was sentenced Thursday,
Aug. 14 in Pennington
County District Court for a
felony charge of motor vehi-
cle theft. A misdemeanor
charge of fleeing a peace offi-
cer by means other than a
motor vehicle was dismissed
against Brian Allen
Torkelson, 22.
Torkelson was sentenced
to 26
months in
p r i s o n
stayed for
10 years.
That sen-
tence is to
be served
c o n c u r -
rently with
a n o t h e r
case. As a
condi t i on
of that sen-
tence, Torkelson was
ordered to serve 365 days in
jail. Work release and
Sentence to Serve privileges
were granted. Torkelson was
ordered to serve supervised
probation for 10 years.
Torkelson was ordered to
undergo a chemical depend-
ency evaluation/treatment
and to participate in Teen
Challenge. He was ordered
to take his medications in
their prescribed dosage and
frequency. He was ordered to
not use or possess firearms
or dangerous weapons.
Torkelson was also ordered
to pay $210 in fees and fines.
The right to restitution has
been reserved.
The charges stemmed
from an attempt to appre-
hend Torkelson on Dec. 18. A
Pennington County Sheriff s
Office investigator and a
deputy were assisting the
Red Lake County Sheriff s
Office and a probation agent.
They went to 929 Falls Ave.
in an attempt to arrest him,
according to the complaint.
A woman told the investi-
gator that Torkelson was at
the rear of the home. The
investigator saw Torkelson
attempting to get out of a
window. He grabbed
Torkelsons shirt, which tore
off. Torkelson then climbed
out of the window and fled
on foot.
While the investigator
was still at the home, he was
told that a 2004 Ford pickup
truck had been stolen at
TRF Pallet. A probation offi-
cer saw Torkelson driving
the vehicle. A Minnesota
State Patrol trooper located
the pickup truck and a pur-
suit began. The pursuit
ended after the trooper lost
sight of the vehicle on the
south side of Thief River
Falls.
The pickup truck was
later recovered in the 800
block of Crocker Ave. S. The
owner told the investigator
that he had received a text
from Torkelson. The text
stated, Truck on first block
of Tindolph in alley. So sorry
had to borrow. No text back
please.
At the time of the com-
plaint, a warrant was
requested since Torkelson
was in custody in Becker
County on unrelated
charges.
Two separate dismissed felony
offenses are included in the latest
edition of the Pennington County
Citation Disposition Bulletin.

Footprints in the Sand
One night I dreamed I was walking along the beach with the Lord.
Many scenes from my life flashed across the sky.
In each scene I noticed footprints in the sand.
Sometimes there were two sets of footprints,
other times there were one set of footprints.
This bothered me because I noticed
that during the low periods of my life,
when I was suffering from
anguish, sorrow or defeat,
I could see only one set of footprints.
So I said to the Lord,
"You promised me Lord,
that if I followed you,
you would walk with me always.
But I have noticed that during
the most trying periods of my life
there have only been one
set of footprints in the sand.
Why, when I needed you most,
you have not been there for me?"
The Lord replied,
"The times when you have
seen only one set of footprints,
is when I carried you."
We would like the community to know, this is how you have
made us feel. All of your support is Incredible!
The Woods Family
Todd, DeAnna, Paige, Taylor and Gracie
Incredible! That is what Gracies room
remodel was. Words cannot express how
grateful we are for all you have done.
Thank you. We were totally amazed each
step of the way.

Pennington SWCD hosts well water testing clinic
Next week, the
Pennington Soil and Water
Conservation District will
sponsor a well water testing
clinic. Homeowners wanting
their private well water test-
ed for nitrates, E. coli, and
total coliform bacteria may
pick up sample bottles at the
SWCD office on Tuesday
Sept. 2 or Wednesday, Sept.
3, between 8 a.m. and 4:30
p.m.
The water sample must
be collected Thursday, Sept.
4 and returned to the SWCD
by 4:30 p.m. Samples are
sent to a certified lab for
analysis. The Pennington
SWCD will pay 50 percent of
the cost; homeowners are
responsible to pay $10 at the
time they pick up their sam-
ple bottles. Due to a limited
number of bottles, the bot-
tles will be handed out on a
first-come-first-serve basis.
The Minnesota
Department of Health rec-
ommends that private wells
be tested once a year to
detect possible problems
with bacterial contamina-
tion. This test detects a
broad group of bacteria that
are used as a general indica-
tor of possible contamina-
tion problems even though
they dont usually cause dis-
ease themselves. Coliform
bacteria are present in the
wastes of warm blooded ani-
mals and found in the soil,
but usually not more than a
few feet below the surface.
When they are detected in
well water, it means that
surface contamination may
have entered the well. It also
means that disease organ-
isms from human and ani-
mal waste may be present.
Nitrate tests are recom-
mended every one to two
years more often if nitrates
have been detected previous-
ly in the well, or if an infant
under the age of 6 months
will be consuming the water.
Nitrates in well water are a
health concern primarily for
young infants, in whom the
nitrate can be converted into
nitrite in the digestive tract.
The nitrite then interferes
with the ability of the babys
blood to carry oxygen,
resulting in methemoglo-
binemia or blue baby syn-
drome. If levels of nitrate
exceed the current health
limit of 10 milligrams per
liter (as nitrogen), infants
under 6 months of age
should not consume the
water. Nitrate contamina-
tion can be the result of agri-
cultural runoff, improper
use of fertilizers, or failing
septic systems.
Pennington SWCD spon-
sors well screening clinics
with discounted prices each
year. However, sample bot-
tles are available at full
price year round.
For more information,
please contact Peter Nelson,
water plan coordinator at
683-7075. The Pennington
SWCD is located at 201
Sherwood Ave. S., Thief
River Falls (behind Kmart).

Why should I quit smoking?
Quitting smoking is the most important thing you can do for your health.
Smoking can cause cancer, lung disease, heart disease, and many other
health problems. Secondhand smoke can be dangerous too. Both can make
asthma worse or cause ear infections in kids. Youll see benefts as soon as
you quit smoking. Your heart rate and blood pressure will go down. Youll
breathe easier. It will be easier to exercise. Your sense of smell and taste will
be better. Youll lower your risk of cancer, lung disease, and heart disease.
Youll even live longer!
Why is it so hard to quit smoking?
Nicotine is a strong and addictive drug. You may have withdrawal symptoms when you stop
smoking. You may become anxious or irritable, have trouble sleeping or want to eat more.
Tese symptoms are usually worst the frst week afer quitting. Te good news is nicotine
withdrawal symptoms only last a few weeks for most people.
Te routines and habits that go along with smoking can make it tough to quit too. Some people
ofen smoke a cigarette when they drive, afer a meal, or when theyre on the phone. Afer you
quit smoking these habits can be a trigger to make you want to smoke again. Its important to
separate smoking from these routines when you quit.
How can I make it easier to quit?
You dont have to quit cold turkey. You can double or triple the chance that youll stop
smoking if you use a medicine and counseling together. Tere are many medicines available to
help manage nicotine withdrawal. Many can be bought of the shelves at your local pharmacy.
Some require a prescription. Talk to your pharmacist or doctor about what medicines may be
right for you.
It is very important to have counseling when you quit. Counseling can help you develop skills
to break smoking habits. Tere are lots of counseling options available, such as local support
groups, telephone quitlines, online services, and texting programs. Many of these are free.
Start thinking now about how you plan to quit. Tink about why you want to quit. Look at
triggers that make you want to smoke. Plan for challenges you might face when trying to quit.
Talk to your pharmacist about how to get help.

Talkin to the woodpecker
Mid-August always
brings front porch sunshine,
flowers in full bloom, and
reverent quietude.
Raspberries left in the patch
offer immediate gratification
and while I was enjoying
just that, I heard rat-a-tat-
tat upon metal. Perhaps a
twig or a branch had found
its way down from on high
is where my thoughts
went, but as the sound came
in patterned repetition,
there was no mistaking
what was happening.
A woodpecker had mis-
taken the backboard of the
basketball hoop for a tree.
Although the pole perhaps
felt familiar under foot for
birdie, once that beak came
into contact with metal, it no
doubt meant birdies feed-
back was quite different
than expected. And, just as I
thought, soon the rat-a-tat-
tatting stopped.
As I continued picking
berries and enjoying my
moment in the sunlight
this too soon stopped as the
fruit from the summers
bounty was nowhere in
sight. Enjoying the stillness,
I meandered back into the
house and right before
entering the beak to
metal echoes could be heard
across the farmyard once
again.
I turned round just in
time to catch a glimpse of
birdie hard at work. Without
fully understanding what it
was going through, I knew
enough from the sounds and
visuals that this was not a
comfortable situation if
not downright dangerous for
birdie and beak. With the
flap of my arm, and a holler
into the midsummer air I
said, Get away from that
its not exactly wood, you
know. And with that off he
flew.
Shaking my head upon
entering the house, I wasnt
sure if I was more appalled
that birdie tried a second
time to do what hed been
doing or taken aback that Id
actually hollered at birdie.
Truth was I felt bad for that
woodpecker and its natural
instincts to do what it did
without sensing danger.
Perhaps thats the mamma
in me. Perhaps thats the
instinct that surfaces within
each of us when we see
someone or something put
themselves in harms way
and we want to make it bet-
ter. Birdie heeded my vocal
warnings or my flapping
arms, but for all I know hell
be back doing his harmful
behavior sooner than later.
Truth is, we never know,
do we? We never know if
those whom we give warn-
ings to will heed that still
small voice ... your voice. But
then you know about that,
dont you? You flapped your
arms to out stretched on
that cross to not only warn
us, but to cover us with love
extended. You warned us not
to take away our fun but
to give us joy unspeakable.
Thank you Lord. Amen.
a Claque fused energy and creativity into
their performance at the Chautauqua and

ed the event, which was held at Old

ACTIVITIES
Tasting Party
Everyone likes to have a
party, and one idea that is a
lot of fun is to have a tasting
party. Collect a lot of differ-
ent flavors and textures to
taste. Raw fruits and veg-
etables work very well for
this. You should also include
interesting items such as
pickles, lemons or grape-
fruit, candy, chips and
unsweetened chocolate.
Then it is time to taste.
Identify the different tastes
and categorize them into
salty, sweet, bitter and sour.
Adults may have a tough
time with this at times, too.
SCAVENGER HUNT
For next weeks Activities
feature, you will need ice
cream, doughnuts, corn-
starch, cinnamon, orange
juice, a 10-oz. package of
frozen raspberries, butter,
brown sugar, an 8-oz. can of
crushed pineapple, ground
ginger, one bag of semi-
sweet chocolate pieces, milk
and miniature marshmal-
lows.

PARENTING TIPS
Coping with the
Terrible Twos
Two-year-olds often seem
more grown-up than they
really are and, because of
this, they need a lot of
patience from their parents.
Twos are very quick at get-
ting around and insist on
doing things their own way.
Twos have much to learn
and we need to provide a
safe way for them to explore.
The important thing to
remember when dealing
with two-year-olds is that
they are learning all the
time. It is important that
they are not met with a lot of
negative feedback, but are
able to explore in a way that
makes them feel good about
themselves. By looking into
the childs eyes, talking in a
kind tone of voice, and using
a gentle touch the child will
feel important and special.
Parents need to praise
and show delight for the
things twos can do. When
they try to do things that are
too difficult, help them, but
leave the last part so they
feel they have done it all
themselves. They need to be
allowed to take risks so they
can explore, wonder and
experiment with things
around them. It is also
important that they are
allowed opportunities to
socially interact with other
children. It is normal for
twos not to be able to share.
Identical toys need to be pro-
vided so they can play side
by side.
If your child does share or
take turns, praise her/him
and tell her/him you like
sharing and taking turns. A
game made out of taking
turns is also helpful, but
make sure no one has to
wait too long for a turn.
Twos have a very short
attention span.

SOMETHING TO TALK
ABOUT
Explain step-by-step how
to take turns. For example,
say, First Joe can play with
the truck while Sally plays
with the tractor, then Joe
can play with the tractor
while Sally plays with the
truck.

TIMES FOR TODDLERS
Northland begins 2014-15 school year
The weekend before class-
es start in the fall is always
filled with anticipation. Our
campuses are welcoming a
new group of students who
have plans to accomplish
and dreams to pursue. What
I love most about our work
in community and technical
colleges is that we are privi-
leged to be part of transfor-
mations. By the end of this
year, many of our students
will be prepared to move to
the next stage of their lives,
confident in their knowledge
and abilities.
To kick this year off to a
good start, the faculty
enjoyed a wonderful, high-
energy presentation by
Jermaine Davis, a well-
known motivational speaker
who is also a faculty member
at Century College in the
Twin Cities. Because he
works within our Minnesota
State Colleges and
Universities system and is
knowledgeable about its
uniqueness, his message
was really relevant. He
urged the audience to see
beyond personal perspective
and to bring the best of self
to every day.
This week, I want to bring
you up-to-date on several
issues that have taken a lot
of attention over the sum-
mer:
Administrative Tran-
sitions
Aerospace Capital
Project
Housing and
Enrollment NW
Presidents meeting
Administrative
Transitions
Three members of the
administrative team have
recently accepted employ-
ment offers outside of
Northland.
Steve Crittenden, Thief
River Falls Campus dean
and athletic director , ecent-
ly accepted an offer to
become a dean at Anoka
Ramsey Community College
in Cambridge. This is a ter-
rific opportunity for him and
his family, and brings them
closer to extended family
and the cabin in Ely. Steves
last day at work will be
Friday, Aug. 29.
In the short term, Vice
President Carey Castle will
supervise the liberal arts
faculty at the Thief River
Falls campus; he will also
serve as the campus dean
and, consequently, will not
schedule himself to be on the
East Grand Forks campus as
often. Jason Pangiarella will
pick up some of Steves work
with student life. Within the
next two weeks, an interim
athletic director will be
appointed for the fall term.
Dan Klug, chief develop-
ment officer, accepted a posi-
tion in Fargo, N.D., and left
Northland on Aug. 15.
Sheila Bruhn, assistant to
the president, has been
appointed interim chief
development officer through
June 30, 2015. Sheila has
extensive experience serving
as an executive director with
a nonprofit organization.
Jason Trainer, director of
enrollment management,
has moved to University of
North Dakota as the director
of admissions. His last day
at Northland was Friday,
Aug. 15. Nicki Carlson, long-
time member of Northlands
student service team, has
been appointed interim
director of enrollment man-
agement through June 30,
2015.
Longer-term solutions
will be discussed with gover-
nance groups within the col-
lege early in fall semester.
Aerospace Capital
Project
During the past legisla-
tive session, Northland was
awarded capital funding to
demolish outdated metal
hangars at the Aerospace
site in Thief River Falls and
replace them with a struc-
ture that will connect the
Swenson Hangar and the
classroom building and will
provide adequate security
and the technology neces-
sary for our high-tech pro-
grams. The project was
planned last year and we
were the first among
approved MnSCU projects to
go out to bid.
Unfortunately, the bids
came back substantially
above available funding.
This was due, in part, to
being bid relatively late in
the construction season and
the steep competition for
contractors in our region. We
have been meeting with the
architects to attempt to
rescale the project to reduce
costs and to set a bid sched-
ule that will be more favor-
able. It is our intent to do
this in late fall 2014 so that
construction can begin in the
spring.
Housing
Housing remains a criti-
cal issue in Thief River
Falls. Pressure from grow-
ing industries has led to a
near 0 vacancy rate.
Students, who normally
want a nine-month lease,
are out-competed by resi-
dents willing to sign 12-
month leases. Fortunately, it
appears that the efforts of
several community commit-
tees and the Thief River
Falls City Council may lead
to new housing develop-
ments soon.
At Northland, we have
been working to get student-
oriented housing built on
our campus by a private
developer who will also man-
age the property. The
MnSCU Board of Trustees
approved the use of college
land; a developer has been
identified through a Request
for Proposal process. In the
spring, the Legislature pro-
vided special funding for the
development of student-ori-
ented housing in Thief River
Falls; now, we await the
release of the Requests for
Proposals from MnSCU so
that the developer can apply
for this funding.
As fall approaches, it
appears that this building
season may have been
missed. Hopefully, student
housing will be available for
the beginning of spring
semester, 2016 or fall semes-
ter, 2016.
Enrollment
NW Presidents Meeting
Enrollment is a concern
for many of Minnesotas pub-
lic institutions this fall. The
state is recovering from the
2008 recession and people
are back at work. It has long
been noted that higher
unemployment is favorable
to college enrollment; low
unemployment causes
declines in enrollment.
Other factors affecting
enrollment in our area
include lower numbers of
regional high school gradu-
ates, increases in the North
Dakota state grant for North
Dakota students who attend
North Dakota institutions,
and credit limitations on
associate degree programs.
On Tuesday, I will meet
with the presidents of the
University of Minnesota-
Crookston and Bemidji State
University and representa-
tive of the Northwest
Minnesota Foundation to
discuss strategies to attract
more students to our corner
of Minnesota.
Have a wonderful first
week of fall semester!

National Breastfeeding Awareness Month
Editors note: The follow-
ing column is written by staff
at Inter-County Nursing.
August is National
Breastfeeding Awareness
Month. Each year, the World
Alliance for Breastfeeding
Action celebrates World
Breastfeeding Week from
August 1-7.
Their theme for 2014 was:
Breastfeeding: A Winning
Goal - for Life! Twenty-two
years ago, the World
Alliance for Breastfeeding
Action launched the World
Breastfeeding Week cam-
paign to focus and facilitate
actions to protect, promote
and support breastfeeding.
One of the objectives for
2014 is to stimulate interest
among young people of both
genders to see the relevance
of breastfeeding in todays
changing world.
Breastfeeding Benefits
Your Babys Immune
System
Human milk provides all
the protein, sugar and fat
your baby needs and it also
contains substances that
benefit your babys immune
system. These substances
protect your baby against a
variety of diseases and infec-
tions not only while he is
breastfeeding, but in some
cases long after he has been
weaned. Formula cannot
offer this protection.
From Healthychildren.
org from the American
Academy of Pediatrics, here
are a few of their Facts For
Fathers About
Breastfeeding
Breastfed babies tend
to be healthier than formu-
la-fed babies - and you wont
have to deal with bottles,
expensive cans of formula,
or other equipment. You will
save money that you would
have spent to purchase for-
mula.
Breastfeeding women
use the weight (fat stores)
they accumulated during
pregnancy to produce breast
milk.
A mothers perception
of her partners attitude
toward breastfeeding is one
of the greatest factors influ-
encing her decision to
breastfeed.
Women who breast-
feed for more than 12
months during their lifetime
tend to have lower risk of
high blood pressure, high
cholesterol, heart disease,
and diabetes.
A breastfeeding moth-
er whose partner supports
her by taking care of house-
hold responsibilities is likely
to be more successful and
keep breastfeeding longer,
enjoy family life more, and
have more energy left over
for her adult relationships.
The American Academy
of Pediatrics recommends
breastfeeding as the sole
source of nutrition for your
baby for about six months.
When you add solid foods to
your babys diet, a mother
can continue breastfeeding
until at least 12 months. A
mother can continue to
breastfeed after 12 months if
sheand your baby desire.
The International
Journal of Childbirth
Education April, 2014
states, Obesity rates among
children have nearly tripled
in the last 30 years. This epi-
demic has mothers and edu-
cators alike looking for ways
to take preventative meas-
ures. The research provided
by this publication aims to
confirm the positive correla-
tion of breastfeeding to obe-
sity risk. Research found
that 9-year-old children who
were breastfed between 13
to 25 weeks displayed a 38
percent reduction in the risk
of obesity, and those who
breastfed for 26 weeks or
more resulted in a 51 per-
cent reduction risk.
Minnesota has state laws
protecting the right of nurs-
ing mothers to breastfeed
their baby in any public or
private place the mother and
child are allowed to be.
Inter-County Nursing
Service does have a lactation
consultant to call for any
breastfeeding questions,

Parenting Tips
More from
Healthychildren.org from
the American Academy of
Pediatrics: Facts For
Fathers About
Breastfeeding
Babies brain develop-
ment depends on frequent
verbal, physical, and emo-
tional interaction with a
familiar, loving caregiver.
Babies need to be sung to,
rocked, and played with as
much as they need time
breastfeeding. The baby
needs these things and they
will not spoil her.
Eye contact between par-
ent and infant is important
for infant development.
Mother and baby frequently
make eye contact during
breastfeeding. The non-
breastfeeding partner can
maintain eye contact while
changing her diaper, giving
her a bath, and playing with
her.
Growing children benefit
from experiencing the differ-
ent but complementary par-
enting styles of two different
adults.

years ago, ground was bro-
ken for the new Carnegie
Library. The construction
contract was awarded to the

Speaking of all those nasty mosquitoes
All right all ready! I have
had enough. I have kept my
mouth shut this entire sum-
mer until now.
This is just getting to be
too much.
Speaking of shut mouth,
perhaps the only reason
mine has been shut is
because if I open it, tiny, lit-
tle, nasty, buzzing, biting
mosquitoes fly in!
What is going on with the
spraying this year? Doesnt
anyone go outside anymore
and notice they are getting
bitten with little needles all
over every part of their
body? Well, yes, it is only on
the bare parts, but that is
because the little biting bug-
gers have such short snouts
that they cant get past a lit-
tle T-shirt or pants. Instead,
they have decided to head
for the best parts of me
and that is my ears, my
neck, my nose, my ankles
and wrists.
I do think the city has
enough money to set aside a
decent amount for spraying
the town for mosquitoes. If
not, have a bake sale or
something. Here Ill bake
brownies I think I am still
a good cook do something
to get those biting bugs off of
us, so we can enjoy a little
bit of summer anyway.
Yes, Ive been waiting
and waiting and waiting. I
kept thinking the city
sprayers just forgot, but
three-quarters of the way
through the summer, I think
the city is just saving our
money. Heck, take a poll. I
think most of us would pay
another $10 a month just to
be rid of these little pests.
No, according to what I
read, these are not the nasty
kind of mosquitoes that can
give us that disease, whatev-
er it is. But isnt the idea
behind spraying to make us
comfy and happy in the sum-
mer so we can enjoy the few
months of decent weather
that we have here in the
north country?
Soon enough nights will
be colder, days will be short-
er, and there we citizens will
be still pasty white
skinned (my skin looks like a
dead fish), still scratching,
still swatting, still spraying,
and suddenly there will be
snow and that is the end of
it. Wow! And how much
money has the city saved by
not spraying?
IT WASNT WORTH IT.

St. Joseph
C a t h o l i c
Church in
Red Lake
Falls, with
Father Bill
DeCrans officiating.
Interment was held at St.
Joseph Catholic Cemetery
near Red Lake Falls.
Hon. J. A. Harren Joe
was born Joseph Aloysuis
Harren on May 6, 1928 to
Joseph C. and Walburga
(Bergman) Harren of
Freeport. Joe passed away
peacefully in his sleep on
August 17, 2014 at the age
of 86.
Joe attended Melrose
High School, St. Johns
University, South Dakota
State University, and St.
Paul College of Law,
(William Mitchell College of
Law), earning his law
degree in 1951. He worked
his way through college and
law school by, among other
things, catching for some of
the best pitchers in
Minnesota semi-pro base-
ball.
While a senior in law
school, Joe visited Red Lake
Falls on a business assign-
ment for his employer and
was impressed by the natu-
ral beauty of the city. It was
located nearly halfway
between his hometown in
Stearns County, and that of
his fiance who was a prac-
ticing registered nurse in
Winnipeg, Manitoba,
Canada. Later, upon his dis-
charge from the Army in
January, 1952, he opened a
law practice in Red Lake
Falls.
In June 1952, Joe mar-
ried Marie Blanche Jeanne
Deschenes from Dunrea,
Manitoba. The couple made
their home in Red Lake
Falls and raised their 10
children there.
Joe built a successful law
practice in Red Lake Falls,
where he served as the city
attorney. In 1964, Joe was
first elected Judge of
Probate Court, a position
which permitted him to con-
tinue his practice of law on a
limited basis. In 1968,
Marshall County was added
to his jurisdiction. In June
1971, he became the first
County Court Judge in the
state of Minnesota under
the new Court Reform law
and later served as Chief
Judge of the Marshall-Red
Lake- Pennington Count
Court District. In 1991, he
retired after more than 40
years dedicated to the law.
In Red Lake Falls, Joe
enjoyed recreational base-
ball and softball. He coached
youth hockey and enjoyed
many years as a firearms
safety instructor. He was a
charter member of the Oak
Knolls Golf Club and took
great pride in the course he
and his friends built along
the Clearwater River.
He was a member of the
Sportsman Club and helped
to convert the dump near
the confluence of the Red
Lake and Clearwater Rivers
(The Point) into a sports-
mans park. He enjoyed
membership and service in
the American Legion Club,
the Commercial Club, the
Pathfinders snowmobile
club, the SJU Alumnae
Association and the Blue
Line Club. He served on the
Red Lake County Bank
Board of Trustees and was
an active member of St
Josephs Parish and The
Catholic Order of Foresters.
Following childrearing
and retirement, Joe and
Jeanne moved their home to
Swift Ditch, east of
Warroad. Joe had a lifelong
love of the outdoors and
shared that joy with his
children and grandchildren,
supporting and encouraging
faithfully. He was happiest
when he was with Mother
Nature. He enjoyed hunting,
fishing, manual labor, mush-
room hunting, berry picking,
bird/nature watching, his
many canine companions,
his trademark pipe, hiking
and spending time at his
hunting cabin in Beltrami
Island.
Joe is survived by his wife
of 62 years, Jeanne; chil-
dren John (Patricia) of
Warroad, Richard (Suzanne)
Wasilla, Alaska, Jeannette
Knott of Red Lake Falls,
Susan (Knute) Knutson of
Red Lake Falls, Jacqueline

N.D., Mark (Dawna) of
Warroad, Peter (Monique) of
Anchorage, Alaska, Sheila

Forks, N.D., and Paulette
(John) Ditzler of Eagle River
Alaska; 39 grandchildren;
26 great-grandchildren; and
many nieces and nephews in
the U. S. and Canada.
Joe was preceded in death

worked as a medical tech-
nologist for two years in

turned out to be where her
future husband, Clifford

pride in being a mom. She
enjoyed making delicious
meals, having a nicely set
table, and dining as a family.
Her children remember her
as a wonderful cook and
dessert maker there was
always a full cookie jar. One
of her frustrations was try-
ing to keep special home-
made sweets until the occa-
sion they were made for.
She tried hiding them, but
Eddy always found them.
Caroline loved her God,
Eddy, family, and friends.
She enjoyed visits from
grandchildren and she and
Eddy traveled many miles to
watch their baseball games
and even went trick or treat-
ing with them. Caroline was
a gentle, caring person who
never had a hard word for

be missed by all. May God

Its a chicken. Van Swanson 4-H program director at the
Pennington County Extension Office in Thief River Falls,
said it was the craziest thing. About the time you think
youve seen it all, something happens that proves you
wrong, said Swanson. Swanson said they were loading
livestock selected to participate in State Fair contests,
when a chicken got loose. It flew a short distance and man-
aged to cling to the roof of the Curling building at the
Pennington County Fairgrounds. They tried all kinds of
things to get it down, but it wouldnt come down that is
until the truck being used to haul the animals to the State
Fair arrived, and then it flew or glided to the ground where
it was quickly penned. The chicken belonged to Weston
Bring of Marshall County. (Submitted)

Q: My wife reached age
65 a few months ago but did
not sign up for Medicare
because she is still working
and has insurance from her
employer. Is this correct?
A: People can enroll in
Medicare without starting
Social Security benefits and
they can enroll in only part
of Medicare if desired.
Social Security and
Medicare are separate pro-
grams.
Most people enroll in
Medicare Part A (Hospital)
at age 65 even if still work-
ing and having employment
based insurance. Part A does
not have a monthly premi-
um. Depending on medical
insurance coverage based on
the current employment of a
worker or his or her spouse,
Medicare Part B (Medical)
might not be needed at age
65 and can be refused. Part
B has a monthly premium.
Before deciding what you
should do, check with your
employer health coverage.
A person without
Medicare Part B because of
employer coverage can
enroll when they or the
spouse whose employment is
providing the insurance
retires. Contact Social
Security about two months
before retirement to do this.
People who refused Part B
at age 65 because of employ-
er coverage can enroll in
Part B when needed and
without premium penalty.
Those who refused Part B at
age 65 for other reasons can
only enroll during annual
open seasons, with higher
premiums.
While this is general
information, if the woman
mentioned above has
already enrolled in Medicare
Part A (Hospital), but not
Part B (Medical) because of
her employment coverage,
this answer should apply. If
she has not enrolled in any
portion of Medicare, she
should consider enrolling in
at least Medicare Part A
now.
Medicare enrollment
information, including an
online application, is at
www.socialsecurity.gov/medi
care.

Hole number five at the Thief River Golf Club is quickly eroding into the Thief River.
SWCD tourparticipants, pictured here, got a close look at the erosion by standing
on the hole number five green.
Participants of last weeks project tour hosted by the Pennington SWCD learned
how stream barbs can be used to divert water flow back to the center of the river
channel to avoid eroding the bank.
SWCD project tour/Continued
(Continued from Page 1)
which is less than 20-feet
from the house. Stream
barbs are rock structures
that extend into the stream
to modify flow patterns.
In the case of the
Halvorson streambank, the
stream barbs were used to
divert flow to the middle of
the river.
Future project: Hole
number five at Thief
River Golf Club
The fifth hole at the Thief
River Golf Club is slumping
into the Thief River and a
project to stabilize the bank
is a candidate to receive
funding from the Clean
Water Fund. Money would
be used to stabilize 170 feet
of the Thief River stream-
bank. Objectives of the yet-
to-be-approved project are to
protect and improve surface
water quality and objective
number two is to protect the
countys drinking water
sources.
Judicial Ditch 30/18
Buffer Initiative
Judicial ditches 30 and 18
have a combined drainage
area of 14,080 acres, drain-
ing from east to west from
the eastern portion of the
county into the Thief River
four miles upstream of Thief
River Falls. Hydrologic mod-
eling shows that a signifi-
cant reduction in the
amount of sediment and
phosphorus can be accom-
plished by implementing
buffers and grade stabiliza-
tion structures.
The JD 30/18 Buffer ini-
tiative is in progress. It will
provide incentive payments
for landowners to install a
50-foot-wide buffer strip and
install grade stabilization
structures, such as side
water inlets, along the ditch
system and laterals.
Drain tile
One brief stop on the tour
was an up close look at drain
tile usage among farmers in
northwest Minnesota.
Perforated drain tile is
placed at a depth of three to
four feet, with 100 feet
between tile lines. The per-
forations allow excess water
to flow into the pipe, which
expedites draining.
Tree planting
Tree planting accounted
for two of the 13 stops on the
tour. The first tree planting
site was at the home of
Pennington County Attorney
Alan Rogalla. The site was
planted in 2009, with fund-
ing from the Wildlife
Habitat Incentive Program.
Tree species on site include
Red Splendor Crab, Redosier
Dogwood, White Cedar and
Flame Willow.
The second tree planting
site was property owned by
Van Swanson. Planting was
complete in 2013 and it
included cost share assis-
tance through EQIP. A total
of 500 trees were planted.
Varieties included Amur
Maple, American Plum,
Chokecherry, Red Splendor
Crab and Black Hills
Spruce. The Swanson plant-
ing also utilized a weed bar-
rier fabric, of which close to
4,000 feet was used.
The SWCD tree program
is available to all
Pennington County
landowners. Tree plans are
customized to determine the
right tree species based on a
soil survey.
Smiley Bridge Water
Monitoring Site
The SWCD and RLWD
worked together to monitor
four sites on the Red Lake
River in 2012 and 2013.
Field observations and
measurements are taken
and water samples are col-
lected and sent to a certified
lab for analysis.
RLWD 14 Side Water
Inlets and Buffers
The RLWD Ditch 14 Side
Water Inlets and Buffers
project is the result of a
partnership with the RLWD
and Natural Resources
Conservation Service. It
includes the installation of
24 side water inlet struc-
tures and 11.5 aces of filter
strips along a 3.5-mile
stretch of the ditch.
Kent Hanson grassed
waterway
One of the final stops on
the tour was the home of
Kent Hanson south of Thief
River Falls. Drainage from a
large area is funnelled into
Hansons property and a
grassed waterway was con-
structed to prevent erosion
from surface water runoff.
Water flows downhill
through the waterway to a
side water inlet, which sta-
bilizes the water and
reduces sedimentation as it
enters the Red Lake River.
Greenwood Street
Bridge
The final stop on the
SWCD project tour was the
Greenwood Street Bridge,
which is the future site of a
streambank stabilization
project. The SWCD has
applied for funding from the
Clean Water Fund that
would be used to stabilize
150 feet of eroding stream-
bank.

under the impression that

The task force is a multi-
jurisdictional group that
would concentrate on drug
enforcement and related
crimes
Deputy Police Chief Craig
Mattson said 95 percent of
the crime in this community
is drug-related in one way or
another. He referred to bur-
glaries, thefts and assaults.
More discussions are
expected since the city ini-
tially planned to assign an
officer to the task force on
behalf of the city and county.
The approximate cost of
$80,000 for the officers
salary and benefits would
have been covered by both
entities.
The department had an
officer in mind; however, the
officer decided not to take
the position. The depart-
ment also has a vacancy in
its ranks since Officer Chris
Hoglin recently resigned.
The council approved
purchasing eight used
ARMER radios six for
the police department
and two for the fire
department. The used
radios, which are currently
being used by the Minnesota
State Patrol in the Twin
Cities area, cost $500 each.
The State Patrol needs
newer radios with more
channels given the number
of municipalities in the
metro area. It is estimated
that it will cost an addition-
al $700 for antennas and
installation. ARMER radios
typically cost in excess of
$5,000 each.
Resident Jerry Unruh
appeared before the
council regarding cam-
paign signs. Unruh, who
has run for office numerous
times in the past, said sever-
al campaign signs are in
inappropriate locations.
Unruh said he called the
Secretary of States Office
and learned campaign signs
are not to be on public prop-
erty, on corporate property,
in rights-of-way, in front of
fire hydrants or in ditches.
He said the sheriff s office is
responsible for moving cam-
paign signs located in county
rights-of-way. Unruh added
that the city is responsible
for removing campaign signs
in the following above areas
in the city within 24 hours.
Unruh also referred to the
need for signs to include a
line saying paid for by the
candidate or the candidates
committee.
If the signs werent
removed in that time frame,
Unruh said the Secretary of
States Office told him that
he could pay $50 to have the
Office of Administrative
Services remove the offend-
ing campaign signs.
Council Member Glen
Kajewski, who is running for
reelection, said he read the
campaign book. Kajewski
recalled that the book indi-
cated brochures and other
campaign literature need to
include the disclaimer
notice, not campaign signs.
City leaders are expected
to check into the matter.
The council accepted a
$500 donation from the
Thief River Falls
Chamber of Commerce
for a sign outside of the
Carnegie Library. The
donation came from the pro-
ceeds of the Chambers pop-
corn stand at RiverFest. It
also made a $500 donation
to the Thief River Falls Area
Food Shelf.
The next council meet-
ing is scheduled Tuesday,
Sept. 2 at 5 p.m. at City
Hall.

provides them a common
conversation. And, it is defi-
nitely creating memories.
When Bohnenkamp was
young, he lived in Fertile,
and most of his cousins in
the Oakes, N.D., area.
Because of the distance and
time involved, they really
didn't have a lot of opportu-
nities to get together, bond
or build on the relation-
ships.
He still keeps in touch
with the family in North
Dakota and they have taken
notice of Cousin Camp.
Several have called to ask
how it started, its goals and
how he does it, and some are
planning similar activities.
"It's had a good impact, I
think," said Bohnenkamp,
who added he definitely
doesn't mind if others copy
what he's doing.
Each year, the Bohnenkamps of Thief River Falls host
Cousin Camp, which is an opportunity for the cousins of
his three girls to get together and build on their family
bond. This is an earlier picture of the group. (Submitted)

Little Falls and Thief
River Falls have never faced

1997; 63-48 in 2001; and 41-
14 in 2012.
The Dilworth-Glyndon-

Baseball memories revisited
Mike Lundgren,
Sports Editor

I confess, my memory
sometimes fails me. Its the
aging process. Things that
used to be there in a snap of
a finger now roll around in-
side my head as I try to come
up with names, dates, events
etc. that used to register au-
tomatically.
But while I might have a
tough time now and then re-
membering where I left my
glasses, my ATM pin number,
why I entered a room and
even to come up with long-
time co-workers first name,
there are some things re-
ally, really important
things that seem perma-
nently welded into the cra-
niums storage unit. Like the
very first time I attended a
major league baseball game.
That would be the sum-
mer of 1958. The Dodgers vs.
the Pirates at the Los Ange-
les Memorial Coliseum.
I was six-years-old. A bat-
boy for my cousins Los Ange-
les-area Little League
baseball team that was part
of a group outing. My dad
and uncle were among the
chaperones.
We were stationed in the
cheap seats in right field. In
a stadium that held over
90,000 fans and wasnt de-
signed to host a baseball
game, that put us a long,
long way from home plate,
The distance likely magni-
fied in the eyes of a very
young fan.
I must confess to having
no recollection of the game it-
self. I do, however, retain the
image of the giant Coliseum,
which was a temporary home
for the translated Brooklyn
team until Dodger Stadium
was completed. And I do re-
call my father pointing to the
Pittsburgh outfielder lined
up in front of us and telling
me that he was their star
player. That would have been
Roberto Clemente, a future
Hall of Fame inductee.
Shortly thereafter, my
family returned to its Min-
nesota roots. And in 1962, I
attended my first Minnesota
Twins game at Metropolitan
Stadium in Bloomington.
Again part of a Little
League entourage, this time
as a player in the Brainerd
youth program that annually
took its players on a multi-
bus Twins trip.
I remember thinking the
bus was going to tip over
right there in the middle of
the I-494 traffic when every-
one rushed to one side after
the first kid to spot the sta-
dium yelled out, There it is!
Theres the Met.
It was beautiful sitting out
there all by itself, sur-
rounded by a huge parking
lot divided into sections
marked by signs of various
major league teams. The first
thing that attracted your at-
tention were the multi-col-
ored panels on the outside of
the stadium grandstand,
then those back-and-forth
concrete ramps that seemed
to go on forever as you
climbed to your seating sec-
tion level.
But just like in California,
the Little League delegation
was relegated to the outfield.
At the Met, it was the left
field bleachers - before the
double-decked grandstand
Northland Community
and Technical College won
three of four matches Satur-
day for a third place finish at
the season-opening Min-
nesota State-Fergus Falls In-
vitational volleyball
tournament.
The Pioneers pool play re-
sults included wins over
Itasca 25-18, 25-14 and
Anoka-Ramsey 25-12, 25-13,
but Bismarck State College
beat them 25-15, 25-23.
In the trophy round,
Northland was matched
against Rainy River, with the
Pioneers taking a three-set
25-20, 27-29, 15-12 decision.
I think we had a success-
ful first tournament, said
Northland coach Abdul
Chamma. The team handled
the game great. They were
playing just like one person.
They showed their talent and
capability. Every one of them
did what they needed to do to
win.
Northland played without
the service of sophomore Tori
Davidson. The 2013 First
Team NJCAA Division III
All-America Tori Davidson,
who was sidelined by an in-
jury.
The Pioneers were led by
Brooke Anderson (freshman,
TRF) with 28 kills; Heather
Nelson (sophomore, Roseau)
and Shanyce Bishop (fresh-
man, Greenbush) with 36 as-
sists each; Crystal
Amundson (sophomore, TRF)
with 6 blocks; and Hannah
Kraemer (freshman, TRF)
with 34 digs.
Northland will make its
2014 home debut this week-
end with Minnesota College
Athletic Conference North-
ern Division matches against
Vermilion Friday at 6:30 p.m.
and vs. Mesabi Range Satur-
day at noon.

Four TRF titles in
Crookston event
Titles went to four Thief
River Falls entries Saturday
at the Pirate Booster/Cara
Johnson Memorial girls high
school tennis tournament in
Crookston.
In singles, the Prowlers
champions included sopho-
more Shawna Spears at No.
3 and freshman Karryn
Leake at No. 4.
They were joined in the
winners circle by senior
Fran Marshall and junior
Juliet Tunberg at No. 2 dou-
bles and sophomores Allie
Okeson and Hailey Kvick at
No. 3 doubles.
The bottom half of the
line-up used their athleti-
cism to get their wins,
pointed out Thief River Falls
coach Matt Okeson. We
moved our feet a little better;
that was good to see.
Elsewhere for the
Prowlers, sophomore Kora
Torkelson was third at No. 1
singles; sophomore Callie
Fagerstrom was runner-up
at No. 2 singles; and juniors
Elle Jorgenson and Carley
Lundsetter finished third at
No. 1 doubles.
Our No. 1 and 2 singles
and 1 doubles teams had
very competitive matches
and came up a little short,
noted Okeson. They battled
and are getting better each
day. We need to be more ag-
gressive at points we can put
away.
Joining the Prowlers and
host Pirates in the field were
East Grand Forks and Hib-
bing. It was originally sched-
uled as an eight-team affair,
but with an 80 percent
chance of rain in the forecast,
Crookston officials advised
teams that it might not be a
bad idea to stay home. Per-
ham, Detroit Lakes, Moor-
head and Park Rapids Area
did. As it turned out, the rain
stayed away, too.
Team points were not
kept.

Answer to last weeks puzzle
Tennis trip is a success
An early-season overnight
trip designed to help create
team unity and face good
competition was a success on
both ends as the Thief River
Falls girls played high school
tennis matches Wednesday
in Virginia and Thursday at
Eveleth.
All three contests featured
a 4-3 final. The Prowlers lost
to host Virginia on Day 1, but
rebounded with next-day
wins in Eveleth against
Grand Rapids/Greenway and
Eveleth-Gilbert.
All three were very com-
petitive matches, said Thief
River Falls coach Matt Oke-
son.
The Prowlers are 4-2 in
dual meet competition.
We did not serve well
against Virginia, and that
was the major difference in a
close match, explained Oke-
son. Day 2, we won several
of the toss-up matches that
were very close. The serving
was much better.
The Prowlers are making
progress, but work remains
to be done, according to Oke-
son. We need to be more ag-
gressive as a group, he said.
We need to put balls away
and not give our opponents
the opportunity to return the
ball on those chances. But
the girls battled hard on the
trip and it was fun to see
them step up, with the com-
petition level higher than the
first week. This is why we
travel over there to play
these types of matches.
Hopefully we remember
these games come the first
part of October when it really
counts.
The venture also helped
boost team comradery and
proved you can have fun
without sacrificing match in-
tensity, according to Okeson.
Sometimes tennis is second-
ary on these overnight trips,
he acknowledged. But this
group is finding out they can
laugh and giggle a lot and
also play pretty good tennis.
Its fun to see the girls come
together as a group and enjoy
spending time with each
other, especially when they
dump ice over their heads for
the ice bucket challenges.

Travis Peralta joining
NCTC wrestling staff
Northland Community
and Technical College head
wrestling coach Scott DCamp
announced this week that
the school has hired NCAA
Division II national qualifier
and NJCAA All-America
Travis Peralta as an assis-
tant coach.
We are thrilled to have
Travis come home to Thief
River Falls to help build the
Pioneer wrestling program,
DCamp said. His experience
at the junior college level and
later at the Division II level
make him a huge asset for
the program.
A 2009 Lincoln High
School graduate, Peralta
reached the medal stand
twice during his standout
high school career, which cul-
minated with a state champi-
onship his senior season.
Peraltas first collegiate
stop was at Ridgewater Col-
lege in Willmar, where he
earned an Associate of Arts
degree and was a two-time
All-America pick. On the na-
tional level, he placed sixth
at 174 pounds in 2010 and
third at 174 in 2011.
Peraltas next stop was
Southwest Minnesota State
University, Marshall, where
he was a two-year starter for
the Mustangs and 2013 na-
tional qualifier at 184
pounds. Peralta graduated
from SMSU in May with a
Bachelor of Science degree in
exercise science.
I joined the staff at
Northland Community and
Technical College to give
back to the sport and honor
those who have helped me on
my own journey, Peralta
said. I plan to mentor these
young men and guide them
to better themselves in the
classroom and on the mat.
DCamp expects to have 17
wrestlers in camp when prac-
tice begins Oct. 15.
our captains (Zeb Nelson,
Joppru, Kruse, Poe). Our
concern right now is team
chemistry. We will have to
see how long it takes for the
younger kids to mesh with
the upperclassmen.
Sophomores on the roster
are quarterback-linebacker
Clayton Smith; running
back-linebacker Landon
Kruckeberg; wide receiver-
defensive back David Be-
navidez; running back-
defensive back Noah
Hawkins; offensive-defensive
lineman Kyle Fowler; offen-
sive-defensive lineman Caleb
Wessel; offensive lineman-
linebacker Brady Hoffard; of-
fensive-defensive back
Anthony McKee; offensive-
defensive lineman Brandon

lineman Kelby Jobe; offen-
sive-defensive lineman Noah
Pittman; offensive-defensive
lineman Jared Lundstrom;
offensive lineman-linebacker
Brayden Ivaniszyn; and wide
receiver-defensive back Der-
rick Newland.
Freshmen on hand include
Aaron Halsa, Blaine Olson,
Cole Dalzell, Dylan Hanson,
Ean Olson, Joseph Peralta,
Kaiden Quam, Logan
Williams, Nick Siering, Tyler
Lija; Jakob Kelly, Jon
Torstveit, Eric Buckley, Zach

nor Swanson, Mike Lime-
sand, Tyler Hebert and
Chase Hron.
The Prowlers scrimmaged
Saturday against East
Grand Forks and Grand
Forks Central. We looked
good, said Attig. but theres
certainly a lot of things we
need to work on. We need to
clean up our technique.
Attig expects to see a
tough first game foe. Little
Falls is very athletic, he
mentioned. They have good
size and they like to play an
up-tempo game.

LHS football opener
was added.
Inside the stadium, the
first thing that struck me
was the grass the greenest,
brightest expanse of lawn
that I could ever remember
seeing.
The Twins opponent on
that first-time visit was Bal-
timore. Again, there are no
game details left in the brain
chambers. But once more my
dad was right-on with his
comments. After reading the
pitching match-ups, I re-
member him saying the Ori-
oles Robin Roberts, who had
been one of the major
leagues best pitchers for
years while in Philadelphia,
was still very good. As it
turns out, Roberts, like
Clemente, is now in Cooper-
stown.
I can only hope that 50
years from now grandsons
Alex and Parker will be able
to look back and fondly re-
call, as I do, memories of
their first major league base-
ball game.
For them, it did not in-
volve a school bus and a
group outing. It was a trip
planned by grandpa and
grandma. And it included ar-
riving at Target Field in
downtown Minneapolis on a
train.
A comment made by a co-
worker led us to book a motel
room in Big Lake, which hap-
pens to be the final stop on
the Northstar Line, part of
the commuter rail route that
runs 40 miles from Big Lake
into downtown Minneapolis.
The plan allowed us to
avoid downtown traffic and
afforded the boys the oppor-
tunity to experience their
first train ride in addition to
their first major league base-
ball game. It turned out to be
a great decision. The train is
extremely clean, well-
lighted, roomy and comfort-
able. Sitting upstair in the
double-decker cars provided
the boys with another
extra, that added to their
experience.
A 50-minute trip took us
right to the Target Field en-
trance. And it cost just $20
with a Round Trip Family
Pass special. A real bargain.
The train leaves the stadium
30 minutes after the final
pitch, or in the case that
night, 30 minutes after the
teams regular Friday post-
game fireworks show.
Perhaps the train ride
may be the grandsons last-
ing memory of their Twins
experience. And that would
be fine. But I think the
bright, still relatively new
ball park and the fact that
they were treated to some
pretty nice seats where they
could actually see the action
might find a way to perma-
nent retainment, too.
Their interest in the game
was sustained by all of the
action that accompanied a
20-6 Minnesota win, incud-
ing a combined 35 hits, six
doubles, five home runs and
a triple
The final score doesnt
matter, but I do know this old
sports writer will always re-
member the Aug. 22, 2014
Twins vs. Tigers game and
cherish forever the looks on
the faces of two little boys as
they took it all in.

Editorial opinion published under this head ing is intended to stimulate thinking and discussion among our readers. Unless speci fied other wise, the editorials are written by Editor Dave Hill
and do not represent opinion of other staff members. Opinions in items from other publications may not coincide with the editors own views but are offered for their general interest.
Sen. Amy Klobuchar and
Cindy McCain today spoke
together at the National
Conference of State
Legislatures 40th Annual
Legislative Summit. At the
summit, which included an
estimated 2,000 legislators
from across the country,
Klobuchar and McCain
headlined the Stopping
Human Trafficking in
America session to discuss
strategies to combat sex
trafficking. Klobuchar and
McCain also led a round-
table discussion with local
advocates, law enforcement
and other stakeholders to
highlight their efforts to
crack down on sex traffick-
ing.
Klobuchar has introduced
bipartisan legislation mod-
eled after Minnesotas Safe
Harbor law that helps
make sure minors sold for
sex arent prosecuted as
defendants but are instead
treated as victims.
Cindy and I have worked
closely together in the fight
against sex trafficking and
its great to have her in
Minnesota to discuss the
important steps our state is
taking to combat this crime,
Klobuchar said. As a former
prosecutor, Ive seen first-
hand the horror and violence
women and children suffer
as victims of sex trafficking.
We need to take action and
crack down on this heinous
crime while ensuring traf-
ficking victims have access
to the support they need.
Thank you to my good
friend Sen. Klobuchar for
inviting me to Minnesota to
see first-hand the great
strides being made to stop
sex trafficking and help
those who have been vic-
tims, McCain said. It was a
great opportunity for me to
learn more about
Minnesotas innovative work
on trafficking and I look for-
ward to bringing those same
practices to life in my state
but with an Arizona twist. I
was especially honored to
visit Brittanys House and
speak with Mrs. Clardy who
lost her daughter to traffick-
ing and others involved to
see their great help to chil-
dren who have been traf-
ficked.
Klobuchar and Cindy
McCain have worked in
partnership to combat sex
trafficking. Klobuchar,
McCain, and Sen. Heidi
Heitkamp of North Dakota
recently met with the
United States ambassador
to the United Nations,
Samantha Power, to talk
about shared strategies for
fighting human trafficking.
Klobuchar also led a panel
with McCain at the McCain
Institute in Arizona on inter-
national sex trafficking. In
the lead up to the Super
Bowl, Klobuchar and
McCain met with the NFL to
discuss efforts to crack down
on sex trafficking ahead of
the Super Bowl.
Klobuchar has introduced
bipartisan legislation to
combat sex trafficking. The
Stop Exploitation Through
Trafficking Act would give
incentives for all states to
have a safe harbor provision
to help ensure minors who
are sold for sex arent prose-
cuted as defendants, but are
instead treated as victims.
When a state passes a safe
harbor law, it means that
kids sold for sex should be
steered toward child protec-
tion services, rather than
being arrested, charged, or
convicted under a states
criminal laws.
Last Wednesday
morning, I turned to
drive down the double
lanes and ended up
behind a large semi
hauling a livestock trail-
er. Whew! I quickly
backed off to give it a
block long lead. It still
didnt help. That thing
really needed some seri-
ous cleaning. It was so
bad it kind of ruined the
morning for me. I think
it burned my sinus pas-
sages.
Last week, I received
an email from someone
who wished to remain
anonymous. For the
record, we dont print
letters to the editor that
arent signed. All letters
have to be signed and
provide a contact num-
ber. The letter contained
a complaint about the
appearance of downtown
Thief River Falls. The
writer complained that
weeds were growing in
front of some of the
businesses and the win-
dow displays of some of
the vacant businesses
were in pretty rough
shape. The writer did
give credit to those busi-
nesses that obviously
care for the appearance
of their store, but still
demanded the city do
something about the bad
ones.
Appearances certainly
shape our opinions. Had
I been a visitor stuck
behind that stinky live-
stock trailer, I might
have assumed that this
town really stinks. But
if I looked around, I
might also have noticed
the beautiful hanging
flower baskets in the
downtown area and the
double lanes of Third
Street. I might also have
noticed the beautiful
flower bed in front of
the liquor store. Thats
pretty impressive! I
might also have noticed
the flowers and decora-
tions in front of Cafe
LaBree or the profes-
sional building, which is
located next to The
Times. I might also have
noticed the freshly
painted parking lanes
and yellow striping
along curbs. Having
seen all those things, I
might have concluded
that there are people in
this community who
really care about its
appearance.
A week or two ago, I
must admit that I had
begun to take notice of
some weeds in front of a
couple of businesses. In
one instance, it looked
like they were growing
an alfalfa field. It was
pretty bad. The follow-
ing Monday, however, I
noticed that the weeds
had been chopped down
and sprayed. I also
noticed another business
had decided to clean up
its act a little. I wonder
if the city sent out a few
notices or if a local citi-
zen stopped by to let
them know that they
ought to clean up their
lots a bit?
One or two poorly
maintained store fronts
can shape a persons
opinion of an entire sec-
tion of the community.
Lets address the prob-
lem, but dont let a few
offenders shape an opin-
ion of the entire commu-
nity. There are a lot of
businesses and individu-
als in this community
who work awfully hard
to make the community
look good.
If youre one of our
downtown business
leaders and havent
taken a look around
your business lately, it
might be a good time to
make sure the weeds
havent taken over, that
trash isnt collecting in a
corner or that your win-
dow displays are looking
more than a little tired.
Texting and driving is
never a good idea. Its
against the law in
Minnesota, but in case
youre still reluctant to
stop texting and driving,
a Florida judge has just
given you another rea-
son. In a case in which a
Florida woman was
severely injured in a
crash by her then-
boyfriend, who was
allegedly texting while
driving when their vehi-
cle went through a stop
sign and collided with a
tractor trailer, the judge
awarded the injured
woman $4.3 million.
Ouch.
If that isnt enough,
just last week, 26-year-
old Justin Jalbert of
Hunter, N.D., was
charged with felony
manslaughter following
an investigation into the
death of David
Hawkinson, who was
struck by a pickup while
on a bicycle. It is alleged
that Jalbert was texting
and driving.
This is serious busi-
ness. Its not all right to
text and drive, no mat-
ter who you are.
Greater
MN faces
unique
set of
challenges
The Coalition of Greater
Minnesota Cities (CGMC),
an organization of 85 cities
from across the state, con-
cluded its annual summer
conference recently with a
serious warning that a
unique set of challenges fac-
ing Greater Minnesota will
likely determine its fate
unless action is taken.
Citing recent reports and
statistics that highlight an
aging workforce, lack of
skilled workers, inadequate
broadband and deteriorat-
ing roads, the group called
on the public to join with
them in making these issues
a top priority during the
gubernatorial campaign in
the coming months.
CGMC said some of the
most concerning trends
include:
Despite a 41.2 percent
increase in full-time vacan-
cies since 2006, Greater
Minnesota currently has an
unemployment rate slightly
higher than the metro area,
according to DEED. This
compares to the metro
areas 5.5 percent decrease
in vacancies during this
time. This is likely due to a
job skills mismatch.
(Source: Job Vacancy
Survey, DEED)
DEED found in 2013
that 52 percent of vacancies
in Greater Minnesota were
hard to fill versus 36 per-
cent in the metro area.
Broadband: Only 45
percent of households in
Greater Minnesota are con-
nected at speeds needed for
present-day applications (25
mbps downloads / 6 Mbps
upload), compared with 92
percent of metro house-
holds. (Source: ConnectMN,
May 2014)
The percentage of
Greater Minnesota workers
under the age of 55 shrank
from 85 percent in 2000 to
79 percent in 2012. The age
of Greater Minnesotas labor
force is expected to continue
to accelerate going forward.
(ACS 2012 estimate and
2000 Census Labor Force
statistics)
These are huge problems
facing our state. Unless we
have adequate roads, broad-
band infrastructure and a
talent pool of younger
skilled workers, Greater
Minnesota will slip further
and further behind, said
Randy Wilson, president of
the CGMC and mayor of
Glencoe. If Greater
Minnesota can address
these challenges, the entire
state will be stronger.
Wilson said that it is crit-
ical for citizens to become
involved in the gubernatori-
al campaign, write letters to
the editor, attend candidate
forums, and demand that
candidates address these
key issues.
These are really tough
and complex problems, and
it is imperative that whoev-
er the next governor is, he
has a vision and a plan for
Greater Minnesota and will
work with us to resolve
these issues, said Wilson.

summit about sex trafficking

Penalties to be imposed for
dumping steel into market
After a major push from
Sen. Amy Klobuchar, the
U.S. International Trade
Commission voted to impose
penalties on companies in
Korea and five other coun-
tries that are dumping steel
products into the United
States and undercutting
American industry.
In July, Klobuchar testi-
fied before the ITC to urge
the agency to impose penal-
ties on Korean firms to offset
any gains they have
achieved through illegal
practices. The ITCs ruling
will impose anti-dumping
duties on steel Oil Country
Tubular Goods from South
Korea, as well as India,
Taiwan, Turkey, Ukraine,
and Vietnam.
This is a significant vic-
tory for hardworking miners
in Minnesota and across the
country, and Im pleased
that the ITC heeded our
calls for action, Klobuchar
said. Through the genera-
tions, our miners on the
Range have proven they can
compete with anybody in the
world when it comes to pro-
viding quality steel. These
new penalties will help
crack down on illegal trade
practices and protect steel-
worker jobs, and Ill keep
fighting to ensure that our
businesses are competing on
a level playing field.
Earlier this year,
Klobuchar and a bipartisan
coalition of senators sent a
letter to Commerce
Secretary Penny Pritzker
urging the agency to thor-
oughly investigate allega-
tions of Korean companies
dumping steel in the United
States and to take action
against any unfair foreign
competition. The letter came
after the Department of
Commerce initially deter-
mined that no dumping was
occurring. Following
Klobuchars action, last
month, the Department of
Commerce determined that
Korean companies are
dumping steel Oil Country
Tubular Goods into the
United States and recom-
mended that the ITC impose
significant antidumping
duties to help ensure the
domestic industry can com-
pete on a level playing field.
To the Editor:

New Boat Dock at Boy
Scout Park
Boat dock construction
with a blacktop approach is
under way at the Boy Scout
park on the east side of the
Red Lake river north of the
Third street bridge.
Excavation and laying of the
base is being done this week
by city employees and equip-

tract for blacktopping is
pending. Wooden boat docks
which were there previously
have been removed, but will
be replaced.
Mrs. Cork Finds Old-
Time Items
Several interesting items
of a bygone era were found
by Mrs. Ernest Cork in
cleaning out the back of a
closet of her home at 508 St.
Paul avenue South, last
week. Included were a
Scandinavian newspaper
published in 1907, an arith-
metic paper of about the
same vintage and bearing
the name of Henry Falk, and
a section of wrapping paper
from the store of John O,
Aos, dealer in general mer-
chandise in Thief River
Falls. The wrapping paper
proclaimed that the store
sold dry goods, dress goods,
clothing, hats, caps, boots,
shoes, crockery, groceries
and provisions.

Local Firms Get Library Contract

Contract Yesterday Afternoon for $11,811
Ground for New Building Now Being Broken
Ed Lee Gets Heating Contract -- Holt and George,
Plumbing and City, Electrical Work
At a meeting of the building committee held at the
council chambers in the auditorium yesterday afternoon,
the general contract for building Thief River Falls new

city, for $11,811; their bid being the lowest of those sub-
mitted. Other bids received were those of C. M. Carlson for

The plumbing contract was awarded to Holt &
George on their bid of $345.96. The other two bids for the

Airship Partially Wrecked
Puffy Wind Results Disastrously When Machine
Comes to Earth Last Saturday Evening
Aviator Froseth Slightly Injured in Accident
Flew Several Minutes Above Tree Line on Aviation
Field Despite Unfavorable Conditions
Aviator Al Froseths sixty-horsepower biplane was
partially wrecked last Saturday evening on the aviation
field on Main avenue north in attempting to land after
making a successful flight of several minutes.
During the week previous to the flight, engine trou-
bles were experienced and it was not until last Saturday
that Froseth and James Piprue, who was helping to assem-
ble the machine, considered the plane safe and able to take
to the air. The engine worked perfectly and, despite the
softness of the ground, caused by the recent rains, gave the
plane enough headway to sail into the air. Froseth was in
the seat and flew over the trees at the outskirts of the field
for several minutes. The puffy wind, however, made flying
difficult and the aviator brought the machine to earth. As
soon as the wheels of the running gear struck the ground,
they became temporarily lodged in the soft earth. At the
same time, a gust of wind struck the machine from behind
nearly upsetting it, and smashing several supports. The
aviators seat was wrenched from its position throwing
Froseth to the ground beneath his engine. He received a
severe blow on the right leg and was slightly burned by the
hot water from the engines radiator.
The plane was not severely damaged and in a short
time will be repaired and ready for the air again.
From the Editorial Page
They told us that prices would go up on account of
the war, and they have. What they didnt tell us was that
the export trade being cut off, would glut the market and
that prices should really go down. But big business sees
another chance to fill its coffers and it doesnt lose any time
in grabbing the opportunity.
Oh well, the availability of gasoline has declined
some on account of the war cutting off the export, so the joy
riders should worry.
So Minnesotas Hubert H. Humphrey is the
Democratic partys nominee for vice president. Long live
President Lyndon B. Johnson!
Judging by all the rain that fell last week through-
out the state, the weather man has taken seriously the
injunction to Keep Minnesota Green.
Children today are much taller than a generation or
two ago, thus enabling them to hang on to their mothers
skirts.
If it were not for the legislative contest, there would

You folks who work hard to make a living no doubt

If a firm foundation is essential to success, the fel-
low who is on the rocks isnt so badly off after all.
Robert F. Kennedy, who lives in Virginia and votes
in Massachusetts, announced last week that he is a can-
didate for the U.S. Senate from New York. Thus he joins
his friend, Senator Pierre Salinger of California, in the
ranks of the carpetbaggers.
The most tranquilizing influence during our stay
last week at a lake near Brainerd was the absence of tel-

Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid,
broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a
sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each
row, column and box. Each number can appear
only once in each row, column and box. You can
figure out the order in which the numbers will
appear by using the numeric clues already pro-
vided in the boxes. The more numbers you
name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

PENNINGTON COUNTY FLOOD-
PLAIN MANAGEMENT ORDINANCE
Notice of Intent: To amend the
Pennington County Floodplain
Management Ordinance. The legisla-
ture of the State of Minnesota, in
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 103F and
Chapter 394 delegate the responsibility
to local government units to adopt reg-
ulations designed to minimize flood
losses. These regulations shall be
adopted throughout unincorporated
areas of Pennington County and
administered and enforced by the
agency or agent designated by
Pennington County. The purpose of
the ordinance is to regulate develop-
ment in the flood hazard areas of
Pennington County, comply with the
National Flood Insurance Program, and
to preserve the natural characteristics
and functions of watercourses and
floodplains.
Notice of Public Hearing: Notice is
further given that a public hearing will
be conducted on September 9, 2014 at
11:00 am at the Pennington County
Courthouse (101 Main Ave North, Thief
River Falls, MN). All persons who wish
to comment on the proposed ordinance
will have the option to be heard at this
time. Persons wishing to submit written
the Pennington SWCD, 201 Sherwood
Ave S, Thief River Falls, MN or by tele-

Management Ordinance
The following text is only a summa-
ry of the Pennington County
Floodplain Management Ordinance.
A full copy of the ordinance can be
found at the Pennington SWCD
office at 201 Sherwood Ave S, Thief
River Falls, MN.
The legislature of the State of
Minnesota has, in Minnesota Statutes
Chapter 103F and Chapter 394 dele-
gated the responsibility to local govern-
ment units to adopt regulations
designed to minimize flood losses.
This ordinance regulates develop-
ment in the flood hazard areas of unin-
corporated Pennington County. These
flood hazard areas are subject to peri-
odic inundation, which may result in
loss of life and property, health and
safety hazards, disruption of commerce
and governmental services, extraordi-
nary public expenditures for flood pro-
tection and relief, and impairment of the
tax base. It is the purpose of this ordi-
nance to promote the public health,
safety, and general welfare by minimiz-
ing these losses and disruptions.
A Letter of Map Revision (LOMR)
issued by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency, Case No. 14-05-
0815P, has an effective date of
September 18, 2014, including all
attached maps, tables, and flood pro-
files. Areas not included in the Letter of
Map Revision will continue to adopt by
reference the Flood Insurance Study
and the Flood Insurance Rate Maps for
Pennington County, Minnesota, and
Incorporated Areas, all dated May 3,
1990, and prepared by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency.
These maps are declared to be a part
of the Official Zoning Map and this ordi-
nance.
This ordinance adopts the flood-
plain maps applicable to Pennington
County and includes three floodplain
districts: Floodway, Floodway Fringe,
and General Floodplain. Permitted
uses for each of the floodplain districts
are explained in the complete
Ordinance. This ordinance does not
imply that areas outside the floodplain
districts or land uses permitted within
such districts will be free from flooding
or flood damages. This ordinance does
not create liability on the part of
Pennington County or its officers or
employees for any flood damages that
result from reliance on this ordinance or
any administrative decision lawfully
made hereunder.
Violations of the ordinance by an
applicant, permittee, installer, or other
persons, as determined by inspection,
re-inspection, or investigations shall be
in non-compliance with the ordinance.
Violators of the ordinance, or any false
statements on a Certificate of
Compliance, shall be guilty of a misde-
meanor, punishable by imprisonment or
a fine or both as defined by law.

Each year, at the
Volunteer Appreciation
Luncheon, Sanford Medical
Center TRF recognizes vol-
unteers that demonstrate a
commitment to the organi-
zation, make a positive
impact in the community,
and exemplify the mission of
Sanford Health. This year,
two volunteers were recog-
nized for reaching 1,000-
plus hours of volunteer serv-
ices.
Both Annabelle Cuppett
and Jan Dillon have volun-
teered over 1,000 hours for
Sanford Thief River Falls
Auxiliary. They both have
been regular volunteers at
the Hospital Gift Shop but
have also volunteered in
many other areas such as
Safety Camp, Meals on
Wheels, Relay For Life,
Auxiliary bake sales,
Auxiliary jewelry and purse
sales, Sanford staff appreci-
ation events and many other
activities.
According to the
Corporation for National
and Community Service, an
hour of a volunteers time is
equal to approximately
$22.14 per hour. This num-
ber varies only slightly from
state to state. With that in
mind, these two ladies have
donated over $45,000 worth
of staff services to Sanford
Medical Center Thief River
Falls. Both received a clock
symbolizing their donation
of time.

Pushing Chain to perform Sept. 4
Pioneer 90.1 will present
the Iron Range
Americana/folk duo Pushing
Chain at the Floyd B Olson
Park Gazebo on Thursday,
Sept. 4 at 6 p.m.
Pushing Chain was
formed in 2012 by Boyd
Blomberg and Adam Moe.
The duo, which has per-
formed together in various
manifestations since 1997,
plays roots and Americana
music featuring Boyd on gui-
tar and vocals, and Adam on
the fiddle and vocals.
Pushing Chain plays origi-
nal songs; covers of classic
artists like Bob Dylan, Tom
Waits and Nina Simone; and
some fresh new takes on old
folk songs. The duo also fea-
tures tight harmonies and a
gonzo approach, which
keeps performances fresh
and exciting even if youve
seen them before.
The concert is made possi-
ble by the Minnesota Arts
and Cultural Heritage Fund
and will be recorded for
broadcast on Pioneer 90.1.
