$1.00 (tax included) Number 3 Volume 108 January 17, 2013 By Elizabeth “Sam” Grosz Community News Service Governor Dennis Daugaard compared a recent shoring up of the State Capitol’s floor to make it structurally sound for the next 100 Gov touts fiscally conservative state budget in State of State address Governor Dennis Daugaard spoke for about an hour during his State of the State speech to South Dakota lawmakers in Pierre January 8. ~Photo Elizabeth “Sam” Grosz years with the efforts of the state to strike a fiscal structural bal- ance. Daugaard called both “good stewardship.” The governor delivered this com- parison during the State of the State address Jan. 8 in Pierre on the first day of the 2013 legislative session. He noted that South Dakota is “a comparative bright spot of con- tained spending” in a nation of fis- cally short states. Minnesota, Dau- gaard said, is $1.1 billion short at the current time. While the Governor studiously avoided education reform topics in his message, he did announce a criminal justice effort aimed at lessening the number of inmates held in state prisons. Instead, he noted the results of a criminal jus- tice work group, highlighting three of its recommendations. Those included the creation of alternative courts for repeat of- fenders with serious addiction problems. A pilot program has shown an impressive 80 percent of participants back on track, Dau- gaard said. He is asking the state to copy Hawaii’s HOPE program that re- quires participating drug offenders to call in each morning for random testing. Legislation would set up one urban and one rural pilot pro- gram. Third, legislation will be calling for ways to keep drug, alcohol and mental health offenders from being incarcerated. He said 80 per- cent of persons admitted to prison are those who have committed non-violent crimes. “This is not being soft on crime,” said the Governor, “but being smart on crime.” by Laurie Hindman Sewer easement for the upcom- ing sewer project dominated the Wall City Council meeting held on Tuesday, January 8. Mayor Dave Hahn informed the council that this is a working issue between the city and land owners; Bruce and Lynn Dunker, Mike Casjens and David Eisenbraun who were also present at the meet- ing. Dunkers informed the council that they won’t pay taxes on a lot that is useless and since the coun- cil voted to purchase the lot for the new sewer line already, why is this still an issue. Hahn informed the Dunkers they need a warranty deed before the city will pay for the lot in which they said their mort- gage company is working on the issue. Dunkers also informed the coun- cil that they won’t allow an alley to be established behind their prop- erty. Hahn said he had misspoken during a meeting with them and there was no plan for an alley be- hind their property. Eisenbraun related he had spo- ken to his attorney and was told he could either fight it and the city would win anyway or let the city have it. Eisenbraun said that is why he gave the city an easement. Casjens said, “he was in the same boat as Eisenbraun and it really didn’t effect him a whole lot.” Stan Anderson asked if the city could purchase the Dunker prop- erty and get an easement and then possibly sell the land back to the surrounding land owners. It was also discussed to visit with Haven Hildebrand to get an easement on his property from the north for the new sewer line. A motion was ap- proved to appoint the sewer com- mittee and mayor to meet with Hildebrand. The Appraisal committee for the backhoe ran into a snag. There can not be a council member on the committee. A motion to ask Dar Haerer to sit on the committee along with Paul Goldhammer and Todd Sieler was approved. The second reading of Ordinance 12-07; to make it illegal for people putting their garbage into others garbage cans was approved. First Interstate Bank was ap- proved to be the official depository for the city. It was approved to combine the election with three other entites and hold the election on June 4. The salary resolution which had its final reading in September, will give the city employees a $700 pay increase along with 25 cent in- crease to hourly employees was ap- proved. Arla Olson who held a one-year term with the library board de- clined to accept another term. Dave Jones was approved to be- come the new library board mem- ber. Hahn requested that the city make an “In Kind” water contribu- tion for the new airport building. Council approved the request. The Straton building utility costs are to high according to Hahn. Public Works Director Jeff Clark will look into getting a new thermostat for the building. Sgt. Dan Wardell with the Pen- nington County Sheriffs Depart- ment reported they did good on the hours provided to the city. The deputies are doing a lot of business check and patrols. The new deputy will graduate in three weeks and will start in position in Wall shortly after that. Finance Officer Carolynn Ander- son asked the council to review the motor vehicle record policy and re- port and to bring back any recom- mendations to the February meet- ing. The Pennington County Emer- gency Management agreement was reviewed. The only comment Hahn had was the 30 day billing cycle. C. Anderson will see if the billing cycle can be extended to 45 days. Clark asked for approval for the city engineer to begin working on street projects around the city. He noted the city has $250,000 set aside for street repair in the budget. Clark listed the following streets and items that need to be fixed: the intersection at Fifth and Norris, gutters, a man-hole and chip and seal on certain streets. The work will be done this fall. The project was approved by the council. Clark gave an update on Well 7. He has found a used motor that will cost $30,000. A motion to pro- ceed and have Clark check on the used motor was approved. The next city council meeting will be held on Tuesday, February 5 at 6:30 p.m. at the Wall Commu- nity Center meeting room. The meeting was adjourned. Sewer easement main topic of Wall City council meeting Tax notices for all properties were mailed on December 27, 2013. If you have not received your tax notice as of this date we urge you to contact the Pennington County Treasurer’s Office and give us an update of your current address.

Tax notice by Laurie Hindman Superintendent/7-12 Principal Dennis Rieckman announced to the Wall School Board and the community that the Wall School Board received the “School Board Award of Excellence” at their reg- ular monthly meeting held on Wednesday, January 10. The School Board Award of Ex- cellence is given annually to a pub- lic school board which consistently demonstrates outstanding leader- ship that enhances the achieve- ment for all students. To earn the award, a school board must have demonstrated governance leader- ship in promoting excellence and equity in public education by ful- filling its responsibilities to im- prove student achievement. The board will be identified and recognized with a plaque and a scholarship award of $1,000 will be presented to them. The cash award may be used at the discre- tion of the board for board learning and development, a scholarship to a student of the board’s choice or any other purpose to promote the district’s vision. Rieckman has recommended that Big White School be restruc- tured to K-5. He said, “He has thought long and hard on this and is very concerned with the direc- tion we are going with the common core standards for students.” Alge- bra is now being taught in the eighth grade and if a teacher is ac- credited for that subject it can’t be taught. “There is no way that the school will be closed,” said Rieck- man. He added, we just want a better way to educate the older students. He went on to comment that there are a lot of different grades for one teacher and one aide to teach. Parents from Big White School prefer to leave it as an open policy. “The decision should be left up to us when we want to bring our stu- dents to town,” said Jamie Moon. Jeff Gabriel added, “through the technology we have today we can easily overcome these issues.” The board and parents agreed to work together to resolve the issue and come back with a plan at the March meeting. Elementary Principal Chuck Sykora noted, it is the end of the second quarter and first semester. Report cards will be sent home with students. The chain for Rachel’s Challenge is now 85 feet long and has 250 acts of kindness. He would like to see the chain continue to grow. The board approved to combine the election with the Town of Wasta and the City of Wall and to have Wall as the only polling place. Rieckman asked the board mem- bers to go over the first reading of the Volunteer Policy and Staff De- velopment Policy. A security update was given on the school. Sykora explained the three levels of security and Rieck- man added, Golden West will be the staging area for students to be picked up in case of an emergency. The Technical Amendment was signed by President Obama, which will help in getting Impact Aid payments, reported Rieckman. The board approved the consent agenda for: •Minutes of the December 12, 2012 board meeting. •January claims. •Accept the retirement of Lola Kleinschmit and Mary Ellen Grayot, with regret. It was approved to enter into ex- ecutive session for the purpose of discussing personnel, according to SDCL 1-25-2. With no other business the meeting was adjourned. Wall School Board members.

The board discussed township donations. Since the ambulance service quit sending out letters asking for donations the board de- cided to have Anderson put a letter together asking the townships to help fund the ambulance service. The board approved for Ander- son to purchase Quickbooks soft- ware for payroll purposes. The board approved to pay Lu- cille Holsether for the completion of 2012 billing. A motion to review the revenue for the next three months to see when PCC takes over and Holsether no longer does the billing was approved. Monthly meetings for the EPACD will be held on the second Thursday of each month was ap- proved. Anderson explained that she will need to change the payroll timeframe for the ambulance serv- ice. She noted, the ambulance service will receive their paycheck during the middle of the month in- stead of the end of the month to co- Eastern Pennington County Ambulance District signed lease agreement with city incide with the monthly meeting.

SDSU Extension will host Pri-vate Pesticide Applicator Certifica-tion Trainings beginning January4. Anyone planning to apply anypesticides to an agriculture com-modity potentially worth $1,000 ormore, need to receive certificationas a private pesticide applicator,explains Buyung Hadi, SDSU Ex-tension Pesticide Education andUrban Entomology Coordinator.

"It does not matter what pesti-cide you apply whether it is herbi-cide, insecticide or fungicide youneed to be certified as a PrivateApplicator," Hadi said.

There are three options to getcertified. A person may attend a three-hour

recertification class at any certifi-cation site. Alternatively, they may stop bythe local Regional Extension Cen-ter and pick-up the materials tocomplete the open-book, home-study exam, or the person maytake the Private Applicator examon-line at the Department of Agri-culture's website, http://apps.sd.gov/doa/pwt/.

Although it is the law to becomecertified, Hadi says there are otherbenefits to becoming certified.

"Certification gives you the toolsto apply pesticides properly, safely

and profitably. The certification isgood for five years and allows ap-plicators to buy and apply generaland restricted use pesticides," hesaid.

During the trainings, SDSU Ex-tension personnel will cover theSouth Dakota rules and regula-tions about applying pesticides.Depending on the location, we willalso discuss local pest manage-ment issues, be it insect pests,weeds or diseases.

There is no charge for attendingthe private applicator class or tak-ing the open-book home-studyexam to become certified or recer-tified as a private pesticide appli-cator. A complete list of Private Appli-cator Trainings is available at:http://www.sdstate.edu/ps/exten-sion/pat/pat-county-dates.cfm.

Local man wins S.D. Poet contest

Governor Dennis Daugaard de-livered his State of the State Ad-dress to the South Dakota Legisla-ture this past week. His speech touched on manysubjects including the Federaldeficit and the many economic un-certainties the United States faces. The Governor’s speech did not,however, set forth much detail onhis plans for education and stateefforts to rebate taxes to encourageprivate sector job creation. Inthese areas, I believe the Governormissed a great opportunity. I am hopeful that the Legisla-ture will give greater priority to K-12 education and will make signif-icant efforts to lead in creating arebate program for the contractor’sexcise tax. As a member of the House Taxa-tion Committee, my hope is that astate contractor’s excise tax rebate

program could be designed to ben-efit not only large corporations,but also small businesses that areinvesting in building and equip-ment to create more South Dakotajobs. First, I believe it is essen-tial that any rebate must be tied toverifiable creation of jobs. Second, I believe that the rebateprogram should be developed tohave a strong set of criteria forqualifying for the tax rebate thatlimits the discretion of State Bu-reaucrats in picking winners andlosers. With those two components,I could support the creation of aContractor’s Excise Tax RebateProgram for the purpose of grow-ing South Dakota’s economy. The Legislature has much workto do during the 2013 LegislativeSession. Please do not hesitate to contactme by calling 745-3228 or writingme at [email protected]. I really appreciate your ideasand any input you are willing togive.

As I am writing this the stu-dents and staff are completing thefirst semester of the school year. Semester exams were given andsenior projects have been com-pleted. The students and staff areready to move into the second se-mester. The senior projects were dis-played to the public and judged bycommunity members and staff. I have been impressed over theyears how well these projects cometogether and the quality of theprojects. I have heard comments fromsome concerning the necessity ofthese projects. The students learntime management skills, meetingdeadlines, working with mentors/advisors, and bringing the piecestogether for a finished product. I have seen students complete a

project and not wanting anythingelse to do with it and others solid-ify their choice in choosing a possi-ble career or hobby. Four of the projects donatedback to charities or others; 75blankets to Love Inc., $650.00 toSpecial Olympics, time to Make aWish, and $1393.00 to help withcost for rodeo contestants to theNational High School Finals. The week of January 14th -19this School Board Recognition Weekin South Dakota. Our local board has been chosento receive the 2013 ASBSD SchoolBoard Award of Excellence. They will be honored locally onSaturday, January 19th duringhalftime of the basketball game. They will also be recognized onFebruary 19th by the SD legisla-ture in Pierre and in August at the

Joint Convention in Sioux Falls. This is a well earned and de-served award shared with the stu-dents, staff, and parents of theWall School District. I want to extend a thank-you toall current and past board mem-bers for their time and dedicationto serve on the local school boardand make the decisions in the bestinterest for the education of ourchildren. The legislative session in SouthDakota has started up and we willbe tracking the bills which have animpact on education and our dis-trict. As citizens we need to make sureour Senators and Representativesare hearing input from us on legis-lation. On the national level, the 8002Impact Aid issues have beenironed out and hopefully the schooldistrict will be receiving the 2010-2012 payments in the next coupleof months. We are waiting to seewhat if anything will come fromthe national or state level concern-ing legislation dealing with schoolsecurity. There has been bills proposedand we all need to be diligent inwatching these bills.

Representative Mike Vericho

It was very clear to me that themessage of this session’s first weekwas – proceed with caution. Although we can’t solve the fed-eral mess, the federal governmentcan certainly mess us up. My transportation committee ismade up of two veterans of thecommittee and ten new members.That’s not necessarily a bad thingexcept when it comes to getting theprocedures and routines done. AllI need to do is be a good teacherand be patient. Once again the major challengewill come in education with abrand new contender being correc-tions reforms. There is also a greatdeal of concern being generatedover uranium and gold mining. Most committees won’t startworking bills until next week so Iwon’t speculate on any certain con-troversies or issues until we getthrough some of those agency bills. As always I will keep a closewatch for excessive or new rulesand fees. Hopefully I can help fightthose off. I will have much more detail inmy next update keep in touch.

I want to hear from you!Rep Mike [email protected]@aol.comCell Phone: (605) 391-5093Hall Phone: (605) 574-2466Home Address: P.O. Box 205 HillCity, SD 57401

Wanderings, musings, ponder-ings, cliches, colloquialisms andarith-matic. Soon this Wastan will be wander-ing off to Florida to spend time withfamily: daughter Alita, son-in-lawRamon and granddaughters, Sofiaand Olivia. the eldest, Caitlin, is inUtah attending college. Hopefullyson Scott will not have to travel offfor work and there will be timewith him, daughter-in-law Rocheleand grandson Clancy. this will bethe first time visit in their newhome near Orlando. It is so very different when leav-ing Wasta and it’s quaint quietnessand then being in a city so largeand so, well, bustling about allhours of the day and night. It’s cu-rious what has some of us thrivingin one environment and some of usthere struggling to survive! Butbeing with family is a good andstrengthening tonic so I can handlebusy bustlings and wailing sirensand more people in the groceryaisle than in my entire town. Perhaps this environment andits personal connotations is “a mus-ing to be pondered”. Right now, let’s take up cliche’s.

Thinking of Ramon brings to mindthe cliche’s that are often used tofill a conversational blank andRamon’s interesting twists. He isCuban and though grew up in theU.S.A., there are just some thingsin speech/language that don’t makethe cross-over. For example, the“ducks in a row” bit of wisdomcomes out, “I have all my ducks inone basket”, or this one, “That isthe greatest thing since SPILTMILK” and one I’ve really thoughtwell said, “You know, sometimesthere’s no other way but to just goin and take the Bull by the” (no, nothorns) yet another appendage, andone more “I showed him he couldn’tpull the rug over my eyes.” I prettymuch sit and listen to Ramon andhope for another maybe even betterversion of an old saying. Moving right along now, it seemsa favorite colloquialism or at leastone I’m aware of is my use of “awhole nother” as in that’s “a wholenother kettle of fish or ball game orwhatever”. In addition to hearingmyself use this mixed up word veryoften, there are others who alsohave this habit — it’s the SouthDakota in us! Now, how about this? What everin the world is a “bear-cat”? That’sa word (noun or adjective?) I’veheard all my life from family mem-bers. When asked, cousin DannyGursen said, “I’m not just sure butI believe you better not tangle withone!” oh well, resorting to “Web-ster’s — “Bear-Cat” a person orthing having exceptional power,strength, energy, etc.” So, okay,Danny, you could be right. Well, now on to arithmetic. Actu-ally, I have no musings, ponderingsor readily available cliche’s forarithmetic. Just wanted to get youlogic types to read on. However, this just might be anarithmetic cliche — “Figures don’tlie, but Liars figure”. Have you checked out the in-creased rail traffic recently? Do you

care? Well, taking notice of the dif-fering whistles is a late night occu-pation of some of us. Hazel Kalk-brenner suggested an engineerheading his train westward warnedall possible cows, deer, turkeys,hobos or Faye Bryan’s black cat,Brave, “Train is coming, Train IScoming” with one long blast fromthe Schell Ranch to the DeeringRanch. Sounded a plausible expla-nation to me. In putting away Christmas stuffat the community hall, Lloyd and Iso enjoyed remembering the won-derful Christmas season this year.You are very special people, those ofyou who came to “Christmas-fy” thehall and those of you who came tobe part of the fun. It works because

you participate, you care and thatof course includes carolers and ourown very special Santa Claus.Thank you all and we know we areblessed to be part of this commu-nity. All of you good guys in Wasta,please be in charge and keep Wastasafe. If anyone wants to do a Wander-ings, just call Anne Jo at theCourant. She will tell you all youneed to know and give a lot of en-couragement as well. So, if I findmy job taken upon my return, thatwill just be my tough luck and I’llneed to find other fish to fry and awhole nother thing to keep mebusy. Happy Trails!

By Pastor Cornelius R. StamHave you been disappointed in your pastor or the

officers of your church or perhaps in Christian lead-ers in general? Have you placed great faith in somespiritual leader only to be disillusioned and to findout that your faith has been misplaced? Have youobserved the growing popularity of some evangelistor Bible teacher whom you “know” to be insincere,while noting that another, whose fidelity and sincerityare beyond question, seems to get nowhere?

How it helps, in such situations, to be able to“rightly divide the Word of truth,” and to enjoy “thefull assurance of understanding” that comes with“the full knowledge [Gr., epignosis] of the mystery”!(Col. 2:2).

In “this present evil age” we are living under “thedispensation of the grace of God.”

God is not saving good people today, nor evenpeople who will repent and “do works meet for re-pentance.” Rather, He is saving poor sinners whowill come to Him with all their sin. This is God’s gra-cious response to man’s rejection of the King andthe kingdom as offered at Pentecost.

Look at the way believers lived together in loveand harmony during the Pentecostal era and you areapt to exclaim: “Why can’t we live that way today?Let’s get back to Pentecost.” But look at the way be-lievers lived together after the raising up of Paul,even among his beloved Philippians, and you willsay: “It is no different today.” This is because the be-lievers at Pentecost were all filled with the Spirit infulfillment of a prophetic promise, while today He hasin grace committed His message to failing men andwomen, who indeed possess the Spirit, but oftengrieve Him.

80 years ago…In a hotly contested game on the

local basketball floor the Wall townteam overcame a fighting Dead-wood quintette last Saturday nightin a thrilling game by a score of 41to 29.

It has been reported that wordhas just been received over theradio of the death of ex PresidentCalvin Coolidge.

The County Commissioners insession January 3, 1933, made thePennington County Courant one ofthe official county papers for thisyear. This will be good news to thepeople of this end of the county.

Wall high school defeatedKadoka high on the Kadoka courtlast Friday night by a score of 21to 15.

Dr. Mills reports that he andfamily went Sunday, down to thePinnacles and on down the wall,through the tunnel, up the DillonPass and back home by way ofQuinn. This is the first report wehave had of any one ever goingthrough the Badlands at this pointby automobile, in fact a fewmonths ago it had never been ne-gotiated even on foot. When thisroad is finished it will be a fine sce-nic drive and show what man andmachinery can do to overcome na-ture.

Mrs. Mary E. Moore andCharles Welch, Wasta, chargedwith destroying property and en-dangering life with an explosion,were found guilty by a jury in cir-cuit court, that returned a verdictlate last night after deliberatingabout six hours. Mrs. Moore andWelch were charged with havingcaused the explosion of a tractornear Wasta last May, resulting inserious injury to the former’s son-in-law, Paul Stillman.

70 years ago… For a few hours as the old yeargave way for the new, Wall seemedto be the thriving little communityof a year ago. Both sides of MainStreet were lined with cars. Coun-try folks came in to celebrate theadvent of the New Year at the RedCross dance that was sponsored bythe local post of the American Le-gion. Al Strandell reported thatthe dance grossed well over $100,and that there would still be overa hundred dollars for the RedCross after all expenses includingthe orchestra was paid. The dawn of the New Year wasushered in at Wall by two FlyingFortresses coming from the eastand skimming over the town at aprobable speed of five miles aminute. Two four-motoredbombers, 16,000 horse power —flying in formation and barely top-ping the buildings, brought every-one out of their beds and rushingto the windows. The roar disap-peared as quickly as it came, andonly a few caught a glimpse of theplanes as they disappeared behindthe buildings. It must have beenan exhibition of blind flying. Thepilots were apparently flying westat the traditional odd thousandfeet, and this time it was at a 3,000feet elevation. Wall’s elevation atthe top of the water town is ap-proximately 3,000 feet.

One of the large four-motoredbombers was forced to make alanding near Potato Creek south ofInterior, Friday. The crew stayedat Will Spindler’s (author of theLure of the Hills) home over night.After refueling the next morningthe big bomber was able to take offwithout any mishap. The Quinn Times and the Un-derwood Times were appointed bythe County Commissioners as offi-cial papers replacing the WallCourant and the Hill City News.The Rapid City Journal is thethird paper. The results of the four team bas-ketball tournament held in theWall gymnasium last Thursdaywere, New Underwood won fromInterior and Philip won from Wallin the afternoon. Wall won the con-solation from Interior and NewUnderwood won the finals fromPhilip at the evening games. 60 years ago… A plane accident and exposurenearly took the lives of WaynePercy and Sidney Moss. Their lightplan crashed Friday morning inthe Badlands three miles from thenearest ranch house and the in-jured pair remained in the nearzero weather almost thirty hoursbefore being rescued. Wayne Percy,the pilot, suffered a broken legalong with cuts, bruises, shock andexposure; his flying companion re-ceived a fractured jaw and otherless serious injuries. Both are inthe St. John’s hospital in RapidCity where Percy’s condition is re-ported as fair and Moss as good.The two men had left the GlenPercy ranch northwest of Wallearly Friday morning to hunt coy-otes. They left word that theywould hunt along the edge of theBadlands east from the pinnacles.At the time of the accident, thepilot had banked his plane sharplyto give his companion a better shotat a bobcat that they had spotted.Just then the engine cutout andthe plane plunged into the rugged

ravine a few dozen feet below. The Wall Hot Shots dropped agame to Quinn Indes at Quinn,Tuesday evening, 72 to 58. The Wall Eagles took fourthplace in the tournament at PhilipNew Years Day — but, the boysseemed pleased that they keptwithin four points of highly fa-vored Quinn team. In their firstgame, the Eagles appeared scared,and the Philip team easily andquickly piled up a sixteen point ad-vantage. The Eagles then came tolife and played an even game forthe next three quarters with thefinal score Philip 62, Wall 48. WithQuinn, the Wall boys kept thescore tied at the end of each of thefirst three quarters. The last pe-riod, however, the Quinn ladsedged ahead and won the game bya two basket lead, 56 to 52. South Dakota towns and citiesplanned or completed more than$300,000 in airport improvementsor landing strips during 1952,James H. Hunt, state airport engi-neer reported this week. Wasta’snew Class 1 airport, was includedin this figure at a cost of$19,000.00, and reported to be 98percent complete and in use. (Wallwas not listed). 50 years ago… Bob Sieler’s new car whileparked in Rapid City New YearsEve was hit broadside by an ine-briated driver causing extensivedamage to the Sieler car. He wasable to drive his car home but hadto tie the doors shut. Last Friday, the Wall Eaglesdropped a close game to Interior 56to 53 although winning the open-ing 34 to 21.

State Parks bounce back from 2011 floodVisits to South Dakota State

Parks were back on track in 2012after a 2011 burdened with wide-spread flooding.

State parks saw record visitationand camping in 2012 after springflooding in northeastern SouthDakota and along the James Riverand summer-long flooding on theMissouri River closed several parksand damaged others in 2011.

“Our park staff was extremelybusy from the fall of 2011 throughthe spring of 2012 making repairsbefore last year’s park season,” saidState Parks and Recreation Direc-tor Doug Hofer.

In 2012, state parks hosted over7.9 million visitors statewide and270,000 overnight camping units.Visitation increased by 11 percentand camping by over 13 percent

compared to 2011’s flood-impactednumbers. Park usage is back to therecord numbers that were set in2010.

“I am very proud of all the parkstaff, volunteers and contractorswho worked together to ensurethat South Dakota’s state park sys-

tem was able to host a record num-ber of visitors in 2012,” Hofer said.

Fisher Grove State Park nearRedfield is the only campgroundthat remained closed last summer.Plans call for relocating that camp-ground this spring, and it should beopen next summer.

Submitted by Jean Amiotte I am going to write the InteriorNews once more, just to let all ofyou that live away from here knowthat Interior is still on the mapand doing well!! Some of the highlights of lastsummer are: Matt Harvey has been workingin the oil fields in Tioga, NorthDakota, since last April. He getshome to see his family when hecan. Our local Elsie Fortune, daugh-ter of Wayne and Kathy Fortune,did very well at the South DakotaHigh School Rodeo in BelleFourche the last part of June. Shewon the title of South Dakota HighSchool rodeo queen for 2012 and,also, was the State champion forthe girls break away roping. InJuly, she went to Rock Springs,WY to compete in the nationalrodeo queen contest and ended upplacing 21st over all in the queen'scontest, plus getting 10th place forpersonality. She made Interiorproud. Anne Kruse, daughter of Charlieand Beth Kruse, married BryanShore in a beautiful outdoor wed-ding on June 30, 2012 at the Char-lie and Beth Kruse ranch. Theyare making their home in SiouxFalls, where both are employed. Many people from near and far,came to Interior for the Fourth ofJuly celebration. They had a niceparade, plenty of excitement at therodeo, lots and lots of good foodand good visiting. They also had ahuge fireworks, some people com-ing from a distance just for thatevent. The people of Interior andsurrounding area are to be com-mended for all of their work to puton such a fine family celebration. The summer was hot and dry,but the grasshoppers were morethan plentiful! Ol' Man WhiteRiver even dried up completely fortwo and a half months! The deerhad to come to the stock tanks forwater. Hopefully, we'll get somenice moisture this spring and sum-mer. Kelly and Pat Fortune joined theSouth Dakota Stock Growers on atrip to Ireland last October. Theytoured ranches and farms and saidit was a most enjoyable trip. Kyle and Tricia Amiotte andfamily of Wall spent the Saturdayand Sunday before Christmas atthe home of Kyle's mother, AstaAmiotte. Asta spent part of Christ-mas Eve with Tucker and CorinnAmiotte and family, then left forWinner to spend some time at thehome of Jeff and Dondee Kro-likowski and family. Jesse and Alice Baysinger wentto Phoenix, Arizona, to spendChristmas with their son Wesleyand Lupe Baysinger and Taylor.They had an enjoyable time andreturned home on December 29th.Jesse and Alice are now living InRapid City permanently now. Theywould enjoy hearing from theirBadlands friends. Terry and Shirley Gartner havesold their Badlands Grocery storeto Brett and Christi Guptill re-cently. The Guptill's took over Jan-uary 1st and are anxious to dobusiness with you. Judy Livermont and her daugh-ter Stevie Uhlir went to Chamber-lain and Ft. Pierre a couple weeksago to attend Stevie's daughterShelby's gymnastics. This isShelby's first year and she did agood job. Asta Amiotte enjoyed supper atthe Chuck and Jan Carlbom homeabout a week ago. Wayne and Kathy Fortune wentto Wall last week end for the Wallhigh school senior projects. Theirdaughter Elsie is a senior in Wallthis year. Carpel tunnel surgery seems tobe the going thing around herelately. Jena Amiotte had surgeryon both hands last summer, Nor-man Amiotte had surgery on onehand in November and ChuckCarlbom had surgery on one handin December and will have theother hand done this Tuesday, Jan-uary 15th. They all say it is instantrelief and are glad to have it done. The Interior Volunteer Fire De-partment are building a new firehouse in Interior. It is bigger andmostly enclosed now.

FINANCIAL FOCUSINVESTING IS A MARATHON

-- NOT A SPRINTRichard Wahlstrom

www.edwardjones.com Investors sometimes may getfrustrated with their investmentsbecause those investments don’tseem to produce quick results. Per-haps that’s understandable in ourfast-paced society, in which we’vegrown accustomed to instant grati-fication. But investing is, by na-ture, a long-term activity. If youlook at it in terms of an athleticevent, it’s not a sprint, in which youmust pull out all the stops toquickly get where you’re going. In-stead, it’s more like the 26.2-milerace known as a marathon. And as an investor, you can learna few things from marathoners,such as: •Preparation — No one gets upone day and is ready to run amarathon. Marathon runners trainfor months, and even years. As aninvestor, you, too, need to prepareyourself for the “long run.” How?By learning as much as you canabout different asset classes, typesof risk and all the other factors as-sociated with investing.

•Patience — Marathoners knowthey have a long haul in front ofthem, so they typically create a“game plan” — one that takes intoaccount such factors as their phys-ical condition, the weather on raceday and the characteristics of thecourse, such as whether it’s hilly orflat. Investors should also create astrategy — one that encompassestheir goals and ways of working to-ward them — and stick to thisstrategy. •Perseverance — Marathonersmay deal with injuries, dehydra-tion and other setbacks, eitherwhile training or during the actualrace. But as long as they’re able tokeep going, they do so. As an in-vestor, you too will face obstacles,such as market downturns. But aslong as you continue investing anddon’t head to the “sidelines,” youhave a good chance of makingprogress toward your goals. •Vision — Marathoners studythe course they’re on, so they knowwhat’s ahead — and where they’regoing. As an investor, you also needa vision of what lies in front of you— the number of years until yourretirement, the type of retirement

lifestyle you anticipate, what sortof legacy you plan to leave, and soon. Your vision will help drive yourinvestment decisions. •Proper coaching — Not allmarathoners have individualcoaches, but many have at leastgone to clinics or joined runningclubs so they could learn moreabout the various aspects of thisgrueling event. As an investor, youcan certainly benefit from guidanceor “coaching” in the form of a finan-cial professional — someone whoknows your individual needs, goalsand risk tolerance, and who has theexperience to make recommenda-tions that are appropriate for yoursituation. Every marathoner is familiarwith the difficulties of the chal-lenge and the satisfaction of finish-ing the race. As an investor, youalso will be tested many times.Furthermore, you’ll never reallycross the “finish line” because you’llalways have goals toward whichyou’ll be working. Yet, by emulatingthe traits of successful marathon-ers, you can continue working to-ward your objectives — and per-haps you’ll avoid the blisters, too.
