Panorama Community Schools employees said goodbye to two retiring staff members last week.

The 2014–15 school year was the last for both Superintendent Kathy Elliott and Ellen Camp-bell, a technology assistant and former teacher aide.

During the event, colorful banners thanking Elliott and Campbell covered the walls at the high school’s atrium. Staff members watched a video with photos of the women’s lives and

Panorama careers, and Panora-ma Elementary School Princi-pal Mary Breyfogle presented the departing employees with plaques, cards, flowers and gifts.

As Elliott’s son, musician Chad Elliott, sang in the video’s back-ground, photos showed Elliott with her family, students and as a “secret agent” in a yearbook. Elliott has worked in education for 35 years, spending the last six years as Panorama’s superin-tendent. Before that, she spent time at Guthrie Center Com-munity Schools, Tri-Center and Underwood Schools, Glenwood

Schools and Spencer Schools. She began working at Panorama in 2009.

Elliott’s gifts included an over-sized drink ticket, reminiscent of a retreat several years ago — Elliott didn’t allow staff mem-bers to use the extra drink tick-ets they had accidentally picked up, prompting a recurring joke among employees, said Kylee Boettcher, Panorama High School language arts teacher.

“It’s been a lot,” Breyfogle told Elliott. “You’ve touched a lot of lives.”

Elliott spoke to the group of

almost 100 people at the Pan-orama auditorium.

“I’ve been in some sort of school setting for more than 30 years,” she said. “I’m so glad to be able to spend my last few years at Panorama. It’s been a great place to be, and a great school. Thank you for allowing me to be here.”

Campbell worked at Panorama schools for 26 years, starting in 1989. During the video, photos showed her as a Panora-Linden Hawkette and a women’s wa-terball champ. Yearbook pho-tos called her “Cinderella” and a hard worker.

It seems Memorial Day is the

one major holiday that has

remained true to its purpose

-- to honor veterans.

For example, Christmas and Eas-ter have become fragmented in their observances. July 4 is observed with celebrations that often reflect little on the original intent.

But probably most Americans look

upon Memorial Day as one where vet-erans are honored, whether deceased, living or on active duty. Brigadier General Steven Altman, speaker at the Memorial Day service in Panora, perhaps explained a possible reason for this: “Memorial Day is a holiday that is uniquely American.”

He gave the tradition definition of the day, “Memorial Day is a day to remember those who died serv-ing our great nation..ordinary men and women who died in extraordi-nary service.”

Master of ceremonies Kass Duis said this: “All gave some, some gave

all.”But the service in Panora is more

than honoring those killed in wars.The Avenue of Flags here was start-

ed in 1976 to honor deceased vet-erans by flying a flag in their honor. Now there are 274 flags around and on the city square during the Me-morial Day weekend, including 11 who died in action.

Not only are flags flown honor-ing these men and women, but their names are included in the program and read out loud during the service.

REUNIoN

By REBECCA MCKINSEYGuthrie County Vedette staff

Monteith has its share of quirks.

An outhouse with the label “City Hall” graces the small unincorporated community, for one.

It has a “City Council” that still meets to think of ways to benefit the community.

Although fewer than 20 peo-ple still live within Monteith’s limits, more than 450 people have Monteith T-shirts and sweatshirts throughout Iowa and beyond.

Monteith’s quirks are what make residents so determined to hold on to the ties they have built, ones that will be rein-forced with a Monteith reunion planned in June.

“There’s so much history with Monteith that has been lost,” said Vanessa Branson, president of the community club and a member of the city council, who has lived just south of Monteith for about 10 years. “We’re trying to pick it up again.”

The Monteith Community Club is organizing the event. Joanne Zieser, a member of the community club, is the event’s chairperson.

The event will be held at 12:30 p.m. June 14 at the Na-tions Bridge shelterhouse. Any-one who lives in Monteith now or used reside there, or who has any sort of tie to the city, is invited to the reunion.

It will include games and an auction, and scanners will be available to allow current and former residents to share Mon-teith photos.

The reunion is a potluck, and

those attending are asked to bring a dish to share, lawn chairs and their own table service. Lemonade and iced tea will be provided, and at-tendees can bring additional drinks. Anyone can show up — reserving a spot isn’t required.

The Monteith Community Club was started as the La-dies Aid in 1906. The group was Monteith’s “backbone,” Branson said.

“They cooked and served harvest dinner to raise mon-ey to help pay for the church minister, and they cleaned the church as well,” she said. “If there was a need in the com-munity, the Ladies Aid was there to help.”

Earlier in its existence, Mon-teith had a school, church, bank, post office, general store, lumber yard, blacksmith shop,

telephone office, garage and gas station, according to infor-mation provided by Branson.

The city’s general store and blacksmith shop now stand at the Guthrie County Historical Village in Panora.

“It is worth the trip to step back into time when Monteith

cOllEGE cOURSESForty-eight of the graduat-

ing Panora seniors completed at least one college course dur-ing high school.

“The Latino community needs to learn from the Irish immigrants of a century and a half ago. When met with the infamous ‘Irish Need Not Apply’ signs, this immigrant group seized political power so they were the ones doling out jobs. They used their growing numbers, strong community ties and turned anger and pain associated with discrimination into action. So go Irish on Iowa, my Hispanic friends.”

The numbers are there.According to U.S, Census

estimates for 2013, Iowa’s Hispanic population is now 5.5 percent of our state’s total, and has surged well ahead of the African-American population, 3.3 percent in Iowa. Eight percent of Polk Countians are Latino, compared to 6.5 percent African American.

I live close to Denison and spend time there regularly. Regardless of what the Census tells us, Denison is a majority-minority city. There are Hispanic growth pockets elsewhere.

But to this point, Latinos have accumulated limited political influence.

Fewer than 20 of close to 2,000 elected officeholders are Latino. There is only one Latina currently elected to county office — Scott County Recorder Rita Vargas — and there have been no Latinos elected to the State Legislature in Iowa history, according to the Iowa Latino Political Network.

Enter two of the more serious Latino political players in the state. Rob Barron, a Des Moines School Board member, and Omar Padilla, a vice chairman of the Iowa Democratic Party, have launched the Iowa Latino Political Network, a non-partisan organization with an eye on getting more of its demographic elected to local and state and federal offices in Iowa.

“This is about creating a deeper bench,” Barron said in an interview. “We’re focused on all levels.”

One immediate opportunity: county supervisors races in Latino-rich counties like Dallas and Crawford.

In the Latino Political Network’s rollout, Barron and Padilla, who both worked in key roles for former U.S. Sen. Tom

Harkin, D-Iowa, are stressing its non-partisan nature.

Many local races are not partisan — and that’s where political newcomers can break into the system, Barron said.

“I’m mostly wearing my school board hat,” Barron said.

According to a news release from the organization, the Latino Political Network’s first event will be a class for Latinos interested in running for public office.

The class will be held on Saturday, June 20, from 1 to 7 p.m. at the Simpson College campus at 1450 SW Vintage Parkway, Suite 220 in Ankeny.

The class will include in-depth information on building and running a campaign, an overview of

elected offices in Iowa, and a panel discussion with current Latino elected officeholders. The panel discussion will feature the largest gathering of current Latino officeholders. Scheduled to attend are: Vargas (Scott County Recorder), Jose Zacarias (West Liberty City Council), Pedro Rodriguez (Denison City Council) and more.

Dinner will be provided for participants and panelists. Media and visitors are invited to a meet-and-greet with panelists and participants as well as introductory comments from the founders from 1 to 2 p.m.

“It’s 2015,” Barron said. “My family has been here for four generations. There have been Latinos here in Iowa for a long time.”

was a hub with a railroad sta-tion, elevator and lumberyard,” Branson said.

Today, the city looks a bit rundown.

There is still a business there,

owned by Jim Robson, that sells lawn mowers and works on tractors.

Although she doesn’t expect new businesses to pop up in Monteith, Branson said the cemeteries there are well kept and receive many visitors, and there has been a new house built there within the last de-

cade.Referencing the “Cheers”

theme song, Branson described Monteith as the type of place where everybody knows your name.

“We’re hoping for more friendships and memories,” Branson said. “We want to pre-serve the memory of Monteith.”

SPECIAL TO THE VEDETTE

By Marcia Roenfeld, ARNPGCH Clinics

Obstructive sleep apnea has been found to be a factor lead-ing to many other illnesses and conditions. A study by Dewan et al, (2015) found obstructive sleep apnea with intermittent low oxygen levels can lead to heart attacks, atrial fibrillation, diabe-tes, memory problems, stroke, cancer, and possibly obesity. It was found that up to 83 percent of patients with Type II Diabe-tes suffer with unrecognized obstructive sleep apnea, and if it is corrected, their HgAIC (a test that measures average blood sugars over 3 months) will decrease by 1 point. If a person has obstructive sleep apnea they

have a three to four- fold higher chance of having a stroke. Sleep apnea is also found to contrib-ute to high blood pressure, and when treated can improve blood pressure control.

People who have sleep ap-nea have a 15-fold increased chance of being involved in a traffic accident (Horstmann et al., 2000). The Federal Depart-ment of Transportation will be coming out with recommenda-tions in the near future which will probably cause an increased amount of testing for this condi-tion in commercial drivers who have a neck size over 17 inches. If all drivers with sleep apnea in the US were treated, it would save $11.1 billion in costs due to crashes and save 980 lives a

year (Sassani et al., 2004).If you have any of these symp-

toms, you should see your pri-mary care health provider and be referred to a sleep center for testing:

• Lack of Energy• Morning Headaches• High Blood Pressure• Frequent Urination in the

Night• Depression• Obesity (BMI of 30 or greater)• Large Neck Size (men over 17

inches, women over 16 inches)• Excessive Daytime Sleepiness• Nighttime Gasping, Chok-

ing, or Coughing• Acid Reflux• Irregular Breathing During

Sleep• Snoring

REMEMbERING TEEN

hog drawing honors Zach meachamBy REBECCA MCKINSEYGuthrie County Vedette staff

A raff le honoring a local student has raised more than $3,000.

Recognizing Zach Meacham, 16, of Guthrie Center, who died April 22 when his truck rolled into a river, the raffle will ben-efit a new poultry barn on the county fairgrounds.

“We lost a very close friend, a student, a grandson, a son this year,” Guthrie Center Community Schools Super-intendent Steve Smith said.

Meacham loved working with birds and participating in poultry events at the county fair; it seemed fitting to honor him through the building of a new poultry barn on the fair-grounds, an effort spearheaded in part by Meacham’s class, the sophomores at Guthrie Cen-ter High School, Smith said.

“If any of you knew him — he was the Chicken Man,” he said.

Jeremy and Lori Bennett, whose son, Dalton, was friends with Zach, donated a hog for the raffle, and the Bagley lock-er will donate its processing, Smith said. The raffle ended up raising more than $3,000.

“We were just trying to do something to help all the kids,

and this is one way to do it,” Jeremy Bennett said. “His pas-sion was chickens and poultry. It’s in memory of Zach, but it also helps other families and kids going to the fair to look at the poultry.”

Other fundraising and do-nations have raised an addi-tional $2,000.

A row of sophomores lined

the stage during the Memorial Day service in Guthrie Cen-ter as Dalton drew a name for the raffle: Linda Caltrider, of Casey.

It was fitting that the tickets had been sold as far as Casey, Smith said.

“(Meacham) touched lives in places other than Guthrie Center,” he said.

Through generous support of the parents, teachers and com-munity at the Panorama Scholas-tic Book Fairs held twice during the school year, every Panorama Elementary student was able to receive a brand new book to get them started on their summer reading. The “Super Hero” team of Amanda Viggers, Laurie Beh-rends, Patty Meinecke, Debbie Rockwell and Joan Fredrickson flew in to deliver the books and a message about “staying the course” to the million minutes commitment during the sum-mer months. Students were also given a calendar to record their time spent reading that they will bring back next fall. “Remember citizens of Panorama Elemen-tary....keep reading!”

Panorama students encouraged to read

The Guthrie County Conser-vation Board and the Panora Chamber of Commerce will be holding a canoe float trip and continental breakfast on Sat-urday June 6. The group will depart from Lenon Mill Park at 8:30 a.m., weather and wa-

The float trip will end at the Middle Raccoon River Access by 12 p.m. Please RSVP to 641-755-3061 so transportation back

General Altman concluded his address: “Let us never forget these valiant men and women who gave their lives in defense of freedom. And please remember we have men and women still serving in harm’s way.”

Even raffle tickets sold at the Memorial Day service had a no-ble purpose, to raise funds for a veterans memorial on the court-house grounds. Once again, to honor veterans.

MC Duis noted with military action in Afghanistan ending, to remember those who served there.

At a wedding reception here Saturday the groom and three groomsmen seated at the dais were Marine veterans of Afghani-stan.

Yet, no one on a Memorial Day weekend thought to acknowledge their service. So here’s a belated shoutout to Josh, Eddie, Jessie and Adam -- Thanks guys!

The Panorama girls sprint medley relay team of Emily Neel, Brooke Beckman, Miran-da Mleynek and Devyn Kemble finished fourth out of 24 teams in the Class 2A field at the state co-ed track and field champion-ships run May 21-23 at Drake Stadium.

The Panthers passed the baton and clocked a new school record time of 1:51.97 at the blue oval, bettering the previous record of 1:52.71 set in 2007 by Benton, Derner, Hoffman and Murrow.

The fourth place finish was the highest for the Panthers, who competed in nine events, with two competitors in both the 3,000 and 400 meter races, during the three-day event.

Freshman Devyn Kemble, a four-event qualifier, finished fifth overall in the 400 with a time of 59.21. Rookie classmate Faith Powell, also a four-event qualifier, finished 23rd in the 400 sprint in 1:04.38.

Both Kemble and Powell ran on the Panther’s seventh place shuttle hurdle relay, along with sisters Michelle and Miranda Mleynek. The foursome ran a 1:08.47 and qualified for the

Panthers take aim at StatE tItlE

The Panthers have been the No. 1 ranked team in Class 2A all season by the Iowa High School Golf Coaches Association.

Returning their entire team from a fourth place state fin-ish in 2014, Babcock says the Panthers have been driven from the very first swing this spring.

“After last year we knew we had some work to do,” said Bab-cock, who shot a 17-over 161 and finished tied for 16th individu-ally in his first state appearance.

A couple meets into this sea-son, Babcock said it was easy to see the possibility of a return trip to the state course.

“We just work well together

and last year helped a lot be-cause we have everybody back this year,” he said.

The Panthers have posted a striking 72-1 record in meets this spring, and have consistently set new school standards each time out. Their 141 for nine holes for the sectional championship on the 5x80 course near Menlo was seven strokes under their previ-ous school record, and the 285 team score was lowered from 299.

Panorama senior Marcus Boldy took third in the Class 2A boys discus and the Pan-ther’s shuttle hurdle relay team of Luke Webner, Cameron Allen, and brothers Gavin and Gabe Richey finished fifth to high-light the efforts of the Panther boys team at the co-ed state championships.

The Panthers competed in nine events over the three-day event held at the Drake Sta-dium blue oval.

Boldy upped his own school record with a toss of 55-feet to earn the bronze medal. The shuttle hurdle relay team bet-tered their preliminary time of 58.97 which qualified them fifth for the finals, with a 58.87 to finish in the Top 5.

The Panorama boys finished in the Top 15 in eight of their 10 entries with five events fin-ishing higher than their seed coming in. “Only five of their boys had state meet experi-ence, so it is impressive that they improved season best performances and set new personal records in many of the events,” head coach Greg Thompson said.

Of the 15 boys who quali-fied for the state meet, 10 are seniors.

“Most of our freshmen are

performing at about the same or a little ahead of the perfor-mances these seniors had as freshmen,” Thompson said. “These seniors will be suc-

cessful in their future careers because they understand that hard work has rewards.”

Cobb had eight birdies, in-cluding five in a row, eight pars and two bogeys. The ef-fort broke the mark of 70 on a par 72 course by Panther Justin Smool in 2006.

Also Cobb’s 32 for nine holes was one better than the 33 re-corded by Matt Mikkelsen in 2009. His 10 putts tied a school mark posted by Sam Kemble in 2010.

So, what is the secret to the team’s success?

“Within our team there is a lot of competiton,” said sopho-more George Appleseth. “We’re always trying to get better than the next guy and overall, it’s made us a pretty good team.”

On any given day the med-alist for the Panthers has been Babcock, Appleseth, Jordan Eng, Reid Cobb, Max Monthei or Adam Hackfort.

“We are always rooting for each other and always want each other to do well,” said Eng, the lone senior on this year’s varsity squad.

“It’s tough because most of our competiton is our team-mates pushing each other to get better,” added Babcock.

And while they cheer each other on, they aren’t afraid to get on each other after a bad round either.

“We mess around some-times,” Babcock admits. “You know, Adam got DQ’d at the conference meet and he took some crap for that.”

“Yeah, we’ll let them know,” chimed Appleseth.

The Panthers, who practice and play their home meets at Lake Panorama National - one of the best conditioned courses in the state of Iowa - say they do have an advantage over other

teams. “A lot of teams don’t play as

nice of a course as Lake Pan-orama and playing it gives us different shots that we wouldn’t see if we were at a course that

wasn’t as nice,” Appleseth said. “I think the overall quality of our course has made us better as a team.”

Babcock, whose dad Gary is PGA Head Professional at Lake Panorama National, echoed his teammate saying, “We have such a nice golf course and so many people that help us.”

Joining together for a final tournament this weekend, the Panthers are excited to contend for the school’s first state golf championship.

“It’s pretty exciting for us be-cause we know we have a pretty big opportunity here,” Apples-eth said. “We know it’s coming - the atmosphere at the state tournament is a lot different from a regular meet.”

“We just need to play like we do, go out there and play golf,” Eng said. “As long as we relax and have fun, I think we can get the job done.”

Babcock added, “I think every-body knows they have to keep it together and hit every shot the best they can. Hit in the fairway and put it in the hole.”

The Panthers got a fourth Top 8-place finish from senior and three-time field event qualifier Shelby Lane, who earned sev-enth in the discus with a toss of 118-1.

Panorama finished in the Top 15 eight times. Senior Hannah Appleseth, in her fourth and final trip to the state meet, fin-ished 15th in the 3000 meter run. Teammate Brianna Hoff-man ran 17th.

Senior Brooke Beckman fin-ished 14th in the long jump.

The Panther 4x400 team of Powell, Hoffman, Beckman and Kemble finished in tenth place and the 4x100 quartet of Neel, Michelle Mleynek, Makenna Woodvine and Miranda Mleynek finished 16th.

Individually, Powell finished 20th in the 400 hurdles.

Of the 15 girls who qualified for the state meet his year, four are seniors - Appleseth, Neel, Beckman and Lane. Head coach Greg Thompson said they will be missed.

“This senior class had a great year,” he said. “They set a good example for the kind of hard work that it takes over time to

be successful in track and field. These seniors will be successful in their future careers because they understand that hard work has rewards.” Following are the results:

Though scores were up from the record shattering perfor-mances of a week earlier, the Panorama boys golf team won the district meet Friday at the local Lake Panorama National course.

Rated No. 1 in Class 2A, the Panthers led the way in quali-fying for the state meet with a 309 score. State competition will take place at the Ames Golf & Country Club on Fri-day and Saturday.

“I told the team we’ve got one more meet to win,” said coach Hal Rossow.

Local golfers took the top three district spots as Will Babcock was medalist at 72 with Jordan Eng carding 74

and George Appleseth 78. Reid Cobb’s 85 was the other score. Non-counting scores were 87 by Max Monthei and 89 by Adam Hackfort.

Rossow said the team had “a good steady round with nines of 154 and 155.” The course was more difficult, he noted. “They played the blue tees which made it 6,700 yards and the roughs were tough.”

The team stands 72-1 in meets.

Des Moines Christian (327) and Carroll Kuemper (338) also advanced to the state meet out of the local district. They will join South Winnneshiek, Waterloo Columbus, Fort Dodge St. Edmund, Durant, Estherville-Lincoln Central and Jesup.
