High voter turnout

in special election;
Breitsprecher wins

In a relatively high voter turnout Dec. 15, Kendra Breitsprecher won in a special Dayton city council
election.

Kendra polled 81 votes and Beverly Jondle had
46 votes. There were more votes cast in the special election than in the November council election (127 in December versus 77 in November).

Mrs. Breitsprecher was able to successfully
motivate her supporters. This was a much higher voter
turnout than in the special council election of 2014 when
there were 98 total votes.

Beverly Jondle is a newcomer to local politics.
She polled one vote higher than one of the incumbents in
the November election.

Full of humor and charisma, Wade has not just
won his way to the top of the ranks in the sport of rodeo;
hes won a legion of dedicated fans along the way.

Wade, who grew up in Iowa, began riding
roughstock as a kid getting on sheep and calves. He spent
many of his teen years focused on bull riding and high

school wrestling. Wade now concentrates on the event of

saddle bronc riding like his dad, Doug, competed in.

Children, families enjoy Santa visits

during Festival of Lights in Dayton
Good family turnout. . .

There was a good turnout of children and families seeing Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus the first weekend
of Santa visits at Oak Park in Dayton during the Festival
of Lights.

On that first Friday , Dec. 12, there were 21 children seeing Santa and on Saturday, Dec. 13, there were
between 25-30 visiting Santa.

Many more children were expected to see Santa
this past weekend.

Some children were a little bashful with Santa
and two children cried. Indeed, for some children it is an
emotional experience. Mom and Dad are with them of
course.

Continual repairs and upgrades were made at the
Festival of Lights. Beverly Jondle worked at the Festival each night in December and got assistance from her
daughter Katara and sister Patsy.

It was a continual process of repair, maintenance, and setting up more displays. Several people in
our area contributed lights.

Families were also able to enjoy sleigh rides this
past Sunday, or horse pulled wagon rides as provided by
Frank Green from our area.

Its the time of the year

for eggnog, candles,
cakes, songs, reindeer,
carols, laughter and
most importantly LOVE.

Our business family

is working together. . .

Christmas has arrived and at this time we celebrate the birth of Jesus. As Christians this is a glorious
time of the year. We enjoy Christmas programs, candlelight services, good food and fellowship. And we celebrate
with family, remembering that Mary and Joseph started
their family with the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem.

There are many types of families. We have our
families by birth and weve nurtured our family relationships over the years. Many of us also enjoy family relationships within churches, businesses, organizations, and
the like.

I am personally pleased that our business family
within our two newspapers has really blossomed this year.
We have three key people who really work closely together: Tonya Harrison, graphic designer; Mary Ann Young,
clerical manager; and Jill Viles, writer. Tonya has been
with our newspapers in Gowrie and Dayton for four years;
Jill has been writing for us for about three years; and Mary
Ann Young started in July.

Mary Ann Young is the newcomer and people
will be pleasantly surprised when they get to know her.
She works with people very well and diligently works to
satisfy our readers and customers. Tonya works closely
with several businesses and groups also and she has deep
roots in the Gowrie area. Jill skillfully handles local governmental meetings and feature stories.

About 10 years I ago I enjoyed a very good team
at the Dayton Review with Linda Hansen and Jonathon
Fehr. We were very close with one another. Jonathon
would later move to Texas to be with family and start a
new career in graphic design. He was multi-talented and
a great guy. Linda, who did so many things well, retired.
There were good people who followed but the business
was never the same.

Once again we have a team that works very good
together. We have some good talent, but more importantly
our people work so well together. Those special bonds in
a business family are vitally important. Individually they
are such nice, respectful people.

We have several other very important people
who contribute to our business each week. Sara Downs
has written a great column, Down Memory Lane, for many
years. Dave Anderson has been our dependable driver for
four years; Mary Stufflebean has been our advertising sales
representative for more than one year;
Alice Johnson has written feature stories and more; and many others
too numerous to mention have also contributed.

Our business family wishes you a very Merry
Christmas. Share your Christmas joy with all families.

Week of Dec 23rd to Dec 30th

A Christmas Message...

By the time this is being read Christmas may
have already come and gone for some of you, that is,
you were too busy or otherwise preoccupied to sit down
with The News or Review and peruse the pages. But, I
am writing it midst the busy time of preparations for
many of us. It is my hope that by the time this appears
in print we all will have gotten our act together and
everything we planned to do fell into place. Right now,
however, my Christmas cards are partially addressed, the
great grandkid gifts (25 of em) are partially assembled,
a couple more things to get to put in the annual goodie
package of son who lives in Washington, packages to be
assembled and mailed, a couple gift cards to get and a
couple flowers to order and then Ill be all set. Oops!
When will I have the time and/or opportunity to make
some homemade fudge. Gotta do it. Its an expected tradition. So I hope by the reading of this composition we
all have accomplished and presented and celebrated or
nearly celebrated according to our own traditions.

Ads on TV seemed to have been more down
played than usual. Have people been counting on the
ads in the pre-thanksgiving and Sunday papers or perhaps searching the web as I understand that is quickly
becoming a favored shopping trip. I even noticed that
the Chia Pet and Clapper ads were later in appearing and
not as frequent. Have those always at Christmastime favorites diminished in popularity? Never had a Clapper
though often thought might be a handy item to have if
they really worked so efficiently. Never had a Chia pet
but long time ago bought the first out (that remembered)
Chia head thinking my children would enjoy it but as
often the case, Mom was the one who soaked it down,
spread the seeds and tended it. The fascination was short
lived. However this year I wished I had the $$$ resources to get the smaller greats (by family) one for
the fun of it but then there were the others --- so let that
thought quickly evaporate.

I, having no particular interest in the newest
electronics, games, phones, etc., have paid little attention to visual or written enticements of the year. Upon
occasional curiosity about one of the gadgets, note the
prices. As a behind the times great grandma I am a bit
taken aback when I note those amounts and wonder
what parent can or will decide to purchase it for their
offspring, especially the very young. But it is being
done and the credit card companies are jumping for joy
this time of year.

In all our preparation, whether in our kitchens,
in stores, searching the internet, have we taken the time
to stop and think what the season is all about? Have we
endeavored to teach our children the basics, the really
important? In my own family, while they try to give
their offspring what other kids have, I do believe they
are taught or shown that these things are not what makes
the season important. I hope the decorating and candy
and cookie making include letting the children help.
I hope they have heard of times past from parents and
grandparents and that they have heard the true Christmas
story over and over, not the movies repeated on TV or
the childrens fairy tale books (though they are okay) but
the one that comes from The Book. I hope they will have
gotten to participate in a childrens program at a church
and tell the story in that simple childlike way we all enjoy seeing and hearing. I hope they have gotten to sing
all the songs both in homes and in church and Sunday
school.

But now as this appears in your mail boxes,
time has dwindled and another Christmas will be or,
in some cases, having been celebrated with family and
friends. I hope families are keeping their traditions and
passing on to the next generations. In the meantime, A
Merry and Blessed Christmas and a Happy New Year to
all.

Southeast Valley Jaguar Wrestling

capped off successful senior night
Beating Guthrie Center, Panorama. . .

On December 17, the Jaguar Wrestling team
capped off a successful night of wrestling in their final
home dual of the season on Sr. Parent night by winning
two out of three duals, beating Guthrie Center, 31-21 and
Panorama, 43-42 on criteria. The Jags dropped their final
dual of the night to Ogden, 45-27. Coltan Klingson, Trey
Lawrence, Kyer Jondle, and Kaelan Lundberg went 3-0
for the night. Coledon Bethel and Zeke Miller finished
2-1; Carter Fluckiger, Ivan Hudson, and Matt Ross finished 1-2. Evan McCrady and Xavier Nichols went 0-3.

"The guys really wrestled hard, winning some
matches late in the third period. Our young guys stepped
up; Freshman Coledon Bethel won a close match at 106,
Carter Fluckiger scored late back points to beat his Guthrie Center opponent and Kyler Jondle scored a reversal
with back points in the last ten seconds of the match to
beat a real solid Ogden opponent."
Lawrence, Lundberg Champs @ Roland Story Invite

On December 19th, the Jag wrestlers wrapped
up the 2015 season at the solid Roland Story Invite. At
the end of the day, sophomore 132 lbs. Trey Lawrence
dominated his bracket once again by recording three falls
capturing his first Roland Story title, winning his second
tournament in a row running his record to 18-1 for the
season. Lawrence pinned senior Bill Joslin(1:07) of Roland Story in the finals. Jr. 170 pounder Kaelan Lundberg(16-4) won his first tournament title of his career in
fashion by also pinning his way through the tournament
field dominating East Marshall's Jake Dixon, recording a
fall in 1:17. Freshman 160 lbs Kyler Jondle(16-5) wrestled all the way back to third after a tough opening round
loss by a point in a very tough 160 pound bracket. Freshman 106 pounder Coledon Bethel and sophomore 113
lbs Colton Klingson placed fourth; senior 182 lbs. Zeke
Miller placed fifth; Sophomore Heavyweight Matt Ross
finished sixth; Freshman 220 lbs Xavier Nichols placed
seventh; freshman 120 lbs. Evan McCready & freshman
138 lbs Carter Fluckiger placed eighth and Freshman 152
lbs. Ivan Hudson did not place.

"In this tournament we were down to one senior
and one junior in our line up and the rest freshman and
sophomore. Our young guys continue to improve but give
up big moves. They execute a move and look really good
and the next flurry of moves they get themselves in out of
position and it cost them giving up back points."

SV girl Jags lose

to MansonNW;
three have 10 boards
Great Jag rebounding. . .

The SV Jag girls have had a very good season
but they did stumble Dec. 15 against MansonNW, losing
51-36.

The 1st half was a close half with many lead
changes. By halftime, the score was 24-25 with the Cougars ahead by just one point. Unfortunately, the Jags
could not sustain their play for the second half. They
gave MNW too many easy baskets because of turnovers.

Erica Rittgers led the way for the Jags, scoring 9
points. Cassie Zinnel hit a couple 3s in the first half and
ended the game with 8 points. Josie Breitsprecher and
Aaliyah Scott both added 6 points to the effort. Emma
Graves chipped in 4 points and Morgan Castenson had 2
points. Kasey Lundberg made a free throw to finish with
1 point. Breitsprecher, Rittgers, and Graves each pulled
down 10 rebounds for SV. Scott grabbed 6 rebounds.

Rittgers had a very respectable four blocked
shots.

The field goal shooting was down as the Jags
made only two of 16 threes and 13-47 on field goal attempts.

We did some things well. Our rebounding was
outstanding, said one parent. We didnt execute quite
as well in other phases of the game.

The Southeast Valley Girls Basketball Team
finished up the 2015 part of the season with a home game
against Clarion Goldfield. That game was held on Tuesday, December 22, at 6pm.

Southeast Valley 7th

grade dropped hard
fought thriller
37-36 in overtime...

The Southeast Valley JH A Teams played
their final game before break at East Sac County Friday
night.

The 7th grade dropped a hard fought 37-36
overtime thriller however these young ladies left everything on the court and I could not be more proud as a
coach.

Sydney Carlson had an outstanding overall
game and led the way with 20 points. Emily Hemestead
was right behind with 8.

The Jags received very solid post play from the
duo of Brielle Haub and Morgan Farnham.

The Jags also received outstanding hustle and
defense from the trio of Emily Jaseschke, Kiersten Fisher
and Riley Nelson.

The 7th grade is now 4-2 on the season.

Southeast Valley
8th grade came
away with victory
Dominating 40-12...

~ Email your news to gnews@wccta.net ~

The 8th grade came away with a dominating 4012 victory behind 17 points from Mackenzie Crampton
and Delaney Conrad right behind with 13.

Maggie Anderlik played an outstanding game
off the bench hitting the boards hard.

The Jags also got solid point guard play from
Cassie Bergland and solid defense from the trio of Viatris Scott, Taegan Long and Jaynie Ferarri returning from
and ankle injury.

The 8th grade is now 2-4 on the season.

Cooperative merger...
continued from page 1...
quirement for a successful cooperative merger as certified
by independent auditing firm of Gardiner Thomsen. To
approve a merger, Iowa law requires at least 50 percent
of each membership (plus one) to vote, with two-thirds
of those casting ballots voting in favor of the merger.

Our members voices were heard in this merger
process. Not only in the results of the vote, but in each
and every member meeting and coffee shop conversation, explained West Central President and CEO Milan
Kucerak, who will become the CEO of the newly formed
cooperative. This merger showcases our members request for their cooperative to do more together for their
operations than either business could do separately. We
take our members confidence in a combined cooperative
seriously as we prepare for integration and execution.

The unified cooperative, to be known as Landus
Cooperative, will be led by current West Central President and CEO Milan Kucerak and be headquartered in
Ames, Iowa. The board of directors will be made up of
nine directors from each cooperative for equal representation. More information on any changes will be provided
in coming months as integration plans are finalized.

Together, West Central and FC have more than
70 grain, agronomy and feed locations in 26 Iowa and
three Minnesota counties. According to World Grain

Sundell scored 82.5 points on Tip Off after winning the opening round at the Wrangler National Finals Rodeo
Thursday through Saturday, Dec. 4-13. He leads the standings with $151,641 and tops all NFR competitors with $56,962.

Wade Sundell...
continued from front page...

Wade joined the PRCA in 2007. It turned out
to be a good decision as he has amassed over $1 million
in lifetime earnings. He qualified for his first Wrangler
National Finals Rodeo in 2009, and hes been making the
trip to Las Vegas ever since.

That year he also won a Ram National Circuit
Finals Championship and in recent years he has come
extremely close to a world championship several times,
finishing third in the world twice and second in 2010 in
a close match for the title with Cody Wright in the tenth
round of the WNFR.

And in 2014, the first year of RFD-TVs The
American rodeo, Wade took home the win and a hefty
$100,000 paycheck. He repeated that again this year. He
also had seven rodeo wins and two co-championships in
the PRCA that helped get him to the top of the standings,
and he just won the Canadian Finals Rodeo.

No one has more fun riding saddle bronc horses
than Wade. Expect to see him smiling a lot in the Thomas
and Mack Center as he pursues his first world title.

The Dakota
Access Pipelines
Commitment
to American
Manufacturing
The Dakota Access Pipeline is coming to Iowa, to deliver
domestically extracted energy to our economy.

The pipeline
construction would
result in 4,000 new
construction and
manufacturing jobs
and create a demand
for $1 billion worth
of other goods and
services such as food,
lodging, equipment and
supplies, vehicles
and more.
Newton Daily News, December 10, 2014
Letter to the editor by Scott Miles
of the Laborers Local Union 353

Were in the final stages of preparation, with trade and

craft unions training skilled workers and suppliers staging
steel and other materials for construction.
And were signing easements with landowners to install
the pipeline.
This pipeline project is helping revitalize American
manufacturing and the regional economy in two key ways:
1)

At least 50% of all labor will be sourced from union

halls in states along the route. We will also use
construction equipment from Iowa and Illinois-based
manufacturers. We do this because Dakota Access is
committed to benefitting Midwestern communities.

2)

Dakota Access will bring our country closer to energy

independence, a key step to a flourishing American
manufacturing industry. Americas energy renaissance
has created employment for millions of Americans,
and we are helping to ensure that continues.

It takes dedication, training and decades of experience to

safely source, construct and operate a buried pipeline.
Thats why we are working with the best American
companies and employing highly trained Americans from
various skilled craft unions throughout the United States
to do the job right.
