Caseys is equipped with video which is being
reviewed by investigators.

Event held in Webster County

pharmacies last week. . .

Nationally it was Prescription Drug Take Back
Day last week and Family Pharmacy in Dayton took back
old prescriptions on Friday, April 29.

Webster County Sheriff James Stubbs stopped
at Family Pharmacy to monitor the collection of older
prescription drugs turned into the pharmacy.

Iowans with unused medications, including addictive painkillers, were encouraged to turn them in Saturday (or other declared day) during a national Prescription Drug Take Back Day.

Experts urged people to avoid keeping addictive drugs, such as painkillers or sedatives, sitting around
the house. The fear is that such pills could fall into the
hands of people who will abuse them. But most pharmacies cant take back addictive drugs unless they have the
secure collection boxes.

Painkiller abuse has helped spark the nations
surging heroin use, because the drugs are chemically
similar. One way to prevent heroin addiction and overdose is to stop the diversion and abuse of prescription
drugs before it starts, by getting rid of excess medicine,
Paul Feddersen, assistant director of the Iowa Division of
Narcotics Enforcement, said in a press release.

their first conference loss to East Sac 220-231. Counting
scores for the Jags were Marydith Barkley 54, Tiffany
Blunk 55, Anna Hanson with a career best 61 and Sage
Michalski 61.

JV scores were Hannah Vaughn 77, Paige Garcia 70 and
Hannah DeVries 84. The Jaguars fell to 5-1 in conference
and 6-2 overall. Coach Blunk commented we played
OK but just didnt get it done.

East Sac shot their best team total of the season by about 15 strokes so they obviously played well.
Next week we have a conference tournament at Lakeside,
dual at Mallard and triangular at Storm Lake so its a very
busy week. Hopefully we can shoot some lower scores.

With four awards...

Lehigh native Alyssa Dreeszen was recognized
for her work on three Water Rocks! music videos with
four awards at the 25th Annual Iowa Motion Picture Association Awards Gala, held on April 16 in Pella, Iowa!

Dreeszens skilled editing and camera work
earned her two Awards of Achievement (editing and
director of photography) as she helped to create a drab
monotone classroom as well as fun and lively prairie
scenes shot on location in and around Ames in the music
video Please the Bees.

Her work behind the lens on the video Use Less
Water was also recognized with an Award of Achievement for director of photography as she captured the
summer campfire sing-a-long on location at Hickory
Grove Park near Colo.

Dreeszen was also on the team recognized with
an Award of Achievement for corporate and community
marketing for the video Soil Health Style, meant to raise
awareness of the importance of maintaining soil health.

Nathan Stevenson of the Water Rocks! team
said that Dreeszens creativity, camera work and editing
are exceptional. Shes great because she can immediately grab an idea and run with it in any number of directions, added Stevenson. That shes able to do that so
quickly and on site really helps the creative process.

Its amazing that shes able to visualize exactly
the sub context of a moment and capture it beautifully

through the lens of her camera.

Therefore encourage one

another and build each other up.
1 Thessalonians 5:11

God wants us to help one another. Why? Because that is what He wants us to do. We need people in
our lives to encourage us, and we need to encourage the
people in return.

The word encourage means to urge forward
Many times we can see something in someone that they
fail to see in themselves. We need to look for opportunities to encourage those around us. God gives us many
and varied ways of encouraging people.

We can do our encouraging with a kind word or
a simple written note. In whatever way we can , we need
to help those around us to do a better job of doing things
for others, and therefore we both will be doing what God
wants us to do.

If we are builders of people, and help others to
fulfill their dreams not only will they be happy, but so
will God. Whenever we work with God we will have our
dreams fulfilled and we will be living in Gods blessing
all of our remaining days.

Prayer: Thank You, Lord, for giving us people
that not only encourage us, but for giving us opportunities to encourage those around us. In Jesus Holy Name,
Amen

It is a small world. . .

I dropped off some residency forms at the
Dreamland Villa office early last week here in Mesa, AZ.
One form was completed by my mother and I completed
the form for my household which totals one person (me).

As I was returning to my vehicle to drive home
a man from the vehicle behind me asked, Where do you
live in Webster County?

Dayton, I stated, and then I walked over to
this man in his SUV.

I noticed he had an Iowa license plate also with
Dallas County in print.

His name was Dean Miller. Dean and his wife
Connie were planning to drive back to Iowa that day.
The Millers had stopped to alert the Dreamland posse
that they would gone and therefore the posse would be
watching their home along with their neighbors.

Dean and Connie live close to Perry, IA, in Dallas County. Ironically, the Millers live on East Dallas
Street in Dreamland Villa, five streets south from my
residential street and just two streets from my mothers
home.

I do know one other Miller family from our
area in Iowa and that is the Dale/Kay Miller family from
Dayton Review
Gowrie, I said.

Oh I know Dale very well, said Dean. We
arent related, but I was involved with Dale in the Perry
hog buying station for some years. I used to meet with
Dale there at 5 a.m.

It is a small world indeed.

Dean asked if I had joined the HOA plan at
Dreamland. It is now optional for residents. Yes, I am
a member, I told Dean.

Dean said they were also members. It is a great
deal and everyone should be a member, Dean stated.

It is quite a deal which includes many amenities
including heated pools, hot tubs, pickleball, etc. I tell
people that they fee is $175. Some people think that sum
is a little high for one month. Then I explain that fee is
for an entire year.

Dean talked a little about Dales family and how
they had interacted over the years. It was good to hear
from another Iowa native. There are many Iowans who
live in Arizona over the winter and also many who live in
Arizona all year.

One of the fine feel good stories occurred
more than a week ago in Arizona. A 72 year-old woman
from Tuscan was traveling to Phoenix to celebrate her
birthday.

Instead of taking I-10 to Phoenix (2-3 hour
drive), she drove through the High country going towards
Show Low. She got lost, ran out of gas, and was in the
Arizona desert wilderness with nothing in the vicinity.

For nine days she was with her small dog. She
had no food or water. She survived by eating berries and
some desert plants. She found a creek in the foothills of
the mountains and had water.

She left a note which was found by authorities.
She tried in vain to get reception on her cell phone;
every ridge, every new
plateau did not yield cell
phone communication.

She found a dead
elk and using its horns she
carved the word help. She
also used stones and sticks
to write help in a barren
area of one canyon.

Dear Editor,

Could you please provide me with information
on my relatives in Gowrie, Iowa. Here is all the information that I have.

If you could please let me know under what circumstances the three young children may have died.

All three below buried in Lost Grove Cemetery,
near Gowrie, Iowa.

Amelie DOB April 1, 1872 - DOD April 9,
1878; Christina DOB November 8, 1873 - DOD April
28, 1878; Amelie Christina DOB April 1, 1878 - DOD
November 8, 1878.

Also, any information on what that area of Iowa
was like around 1878.

It is sometimes hard to imagine the conditions
that people lived in during those times. I have been
working on family history for a few years and come
across these sad stories of such loss, yet they carry on.

The relationship of the Wendell family is
through my mother Judith Willis (Querin). Her grandfather Robert Willis married Anna Vendel/Wendell.

Vendel is the Swedish spelling and during this
time the family name was probably Vendel then Wendel

Dayton Dreamers
April 21 meeting
By Alice Johnson...
It was an exceptionally beautiful spring day
n
when
18
Dayton Dreamers Senior club members and
)
one
guest
arrived at the Community Center on Thursday,
e April 21st, for our monthly meeting.

After the table grace was sung, we enjoyed a
dinner
consisting
of chicken-fried-chicken and cream
7
gravy on mashed potatoes, and succotash, dinner rolls
m and apple pie for dessert. Since Mothers Day is celebrated in May, we decided that we would dine out. The decision was made that we meet at the Community Center at
n 11:15 a.m. on May 19th to car pool rides. We plan to eat
at the 209 Main Street Restaurant at Paton.
The tables were decorated with several demi,
tasse sets... colorful cups and saucers on a hook... on dish play. They were a part of a members collection. On the
, serving table, a large basket of spring flowers was placed.

President Bonnie Reck opened the business
meeting
by
leading us in saying the Pledge of Allegiance
n
to
the
Flag.
Secretary Alice Johnson then read the min,
, utes of the March meeting. It was accepted as read. She
then read the Treasurers report which was accepted as
read, also.

We then sung Happy Birthday to Virginia Adams whose birthday is on April 22nd.

For the program, we had two interesting presentations. Deb Casey, Windows and Webs, from Rockwell City, displayed some of the stained glass items that
she created such as window frames, candle shelters, jewelry boxes, small and large window panels and sun catchers.

Mariann Phillips, K.M. Creations from
Harcourt, hand paints designs on gun stocks, gun cases,
bow cases, ammo boxes, and more. Both ladies are extremely talented and their artwork unique. The beautiful
displays were enjoyed by our members and consequently,
a few items were purchased.

Area senior citizens 55 years and older are welcomed to attend our meetings. They are held at the Community Center every third Thursday at noon. No membership dues are required. Cost of meal is $6. Please call
either President Reck at 547-2948 or Secretary Johnson
at 359-2630 for reservations. Hope to see you soon!!

Green blinds and Ice Cream . . .

There is a foolish corner in the brain of the wisest man. That is one of Aristotles astute sayings and I
trust it means mankind and thus a woman too. Often
when a thought or memory comes into my mind I jot a
little note on whatever is handy at the place I happen to
be. When those scraps of paper or jottings on the back
of a magazine or puzzle book begin to pile up I deem it
time to rescue and use them or toss out as trivia unworthy
of further consideration. In this presentation I will share
some of those I chose to save and at the end you will
probably say some of them should have gone with the
others,

One orphan note said Green window blinds
on spring rollers. Who else is still around who remembers such things? Especially in old farm houses you not
only put up curtains or drapes but window blinds which
you could roll up or down. They served several purposes.
One obvious one was privacy, especially at night when
the lamps were lit or lights turned on. They provided not
only shade from the sun if it were a window where it came
in brightly; they provided insulation from blowing winds
as many windows were not as tight as the new ones of today. They also kept the drapes or curtains from sun fading or at least helped some. If it was a window that would
open in the summer the blind was rolled completely up
and the curtains/drapes pulled back by ties or slid way to
the side on their rods. The roller that held the blinds had
springs in them that automatically (if good ones) would
allow one to give a little jerk and the blind would roll up.
The original ones I remember were very dark green, supposedly a color that would keep it warmer and also better
protect the other window coverings. Eventually decor
crept in and the blind material became more pliable and
much lighter in color from tan down to white. Now we
use venetian blinds horizontal slats that can be opened

or closed or raised to various levels or the vertical kind

that are used primarily at patio doorways. Personally, I
think they are a pain and prefer just to have the drapery
treatment but living in an apartment one has to abide by
the rules for a uniform presentation to the outside. Oh,
well --- I am glad the old dark green blinds are way in
the past.

Another thing I have wondered about Does
anyone remember going to or through Ogden and stopping for a good double dip homemade ice cream cone?
It was a place toward the west end (then) of the business
district on old Highway 30. My recollection is that it
was at the locker plant and they had a window you could
walk up to, perhaps even drive up. While I am not completely sure of the shop location I am positive about the
deliciousness of that ice cream and the fact they carried
two flavors that were not the run of the mill vanilla,
chocolate or strawberry though they had them too. Those
two specials were orange-pineapple and tutti-fruiti. Orange-pineapple, my favorite, was not sherbet but real ice
cream and simply luscious. I dont recall ever getting
that flavor any place else. The tutti-fruiti was to become
a commercial flavor but I havent seen it in years. It was
much later in my life that I would become addicted to
Boyds ice cream in either Boone or Ames, even though
I had heard about Boyds for years. They were good but
that orange-pineapple was very special.

At the time we were enjoying that good ice
cream many people still had ice boxes in the corner of
their kitchens or in their basements. But gradually people began to get electric refrigerators (especially following WWII) but they only had small freezer sections to
hold a few trays of ice cubes which was a real treat for
summer koolade and tea, etc. While there were a number
of manufacturers of the electric ice boxes, Frigidaire
was the popular brand and most people called all refrigerators Frigidaire. It was some time later that freezer
tops came into use so going out for ice cream was a special treat or going to Westeens and buying only what
the family could eat immediately or better yet, a freezer
of homemade ice cream was great. Boxholm had no ice
house so that alternative was usually left to the church
ice cream socials. Remember them? Yummmmmm.

The readers who dont remember the old ice
cream days mentioned herein, you really missed out on
some great times and great eating. Let me or The Review know if you can clue me in on the Ogden ice cream.
Right now that burgundy cherry-chocolate in my freezer
is beckoning me.

National History Day State Competition
Exploration, Encounter, Exchange in History...

On Monday, April 25, five SV students competed in Des Moines at the 2016 National History Day state
competition. The theme for this year was Exploration,
Encounter, Exchange in History.

Erin Zeka competed with a documentary titled
Japanese-American Internment: When Words werent
Enough.

Viatris Scott, Jaidyn Rowley, Mackenzie
Crampton and Mason Goodwin created the website Signal Corps: Exploration in Wartime Communication.

These students have done major research to
learn about their topics and how their topics are significant in history.

At the state level of competition there are two
rounds: preliminary and final.

The preliminary round involves an interview
with judges who then decide which projects should advance.

Both projects advanced to the finals level! At
the finals level a totally new group of judges takes over
and there is no interview.

These students did outstanding research and
represented SV in a very professional and distinctive performance. They are to be congratulated for their efforts.

Through working on their projects, students
learned innumerable research skills. They also learned
how to use computer programs with which they created
the documentary and website.

The website is located at http://53371609.nhd.

Amazing acts of caring from Bussey, IA

Students reaching out to students...
By: Daniel F. Grandfield

It's amazing how complete strangers reach out
to others in times of great tragedy. Back in January,
when we lost Brayden, Autumn, and Riley Sorenson
(and their mother) in the tragic fire - Mrs. Angie Goemaat (6th Grade teacher at Twin Cedars Elementary in
Bussey, Iowa) sent me an email saying that her 6th grade
class had heard about the fire and our loss, and wanted
to do something to honor the Sorenson family, and reach
out to the students and staff of SWG Elementary at the
same time.

A couple of weeks later, we received a check
for $50.00 from Mrs. Goemaat and her 6th Grade class.
They told us they wanted us to use the money to buy
something that the school could use to help honor the
memory of the Sorenson's, and something that could be
Boerner medalist
at East Sac; SV boys
are 5-1 in conference

Despite shooting an impressive score of 155 on
the road, the Jaguar golf team fell to the East Sac Raiders
in Sac City by three shots.

Logan Boerner tied for meet medalist honors
with a score of 35. Conner Conrad 38, Josh Johnson 39,
and Keegan Goodwin 43 were the other SV scores.

The loss drops the Jags to 5-1 in the dual meet
portion of the conference play.

shared with everyone at the same time.

After talking with staff and students, it was decided that we would buy a book in memory of each of
the three children (Riley, Autumn, and Brayden). So we
talked to Mrs. Winkler and Mrs. Heggen, and they talked
to a few of the kids in Riley's, Autumn's, and Braydens
classes and came up with three books that we would purchase, based on the things that each child liked.

SV Jaguar girls fourth at Humboldt meet;

competition is tough, coach praises Jags
Natalie Lambert wins 400 hurdles; more records set. . .

The Southeast Valley girls track team finished
fourth of seven teams at the Humboldt Invitational meet
last week but the Jags had several very good individual
accomplishments.

Pocahontas Area won the meet with 145 points
and were followed by Algona, 114; Humboldt, 112;
Hampton-Dumont, 80; Southeast Valley, 70; St. Edmonds, 42; and Estherville LC, 24.

We had a great night of running and it helped
them drop a lot of our times. The competition was very
tough but it brought the best out of the girls, said coach
Mike Swieter.

We are still trying a few different people in different relays and different opens to see who is ready for
the conference meet and then on to districts so we hope
the girls continue to compete each and every practice to
get those spots, said Coach Swieter.

In the Humboldt meet Katara Jondle set a new
school record in the 100 M Dash.

Alli True set a new school record in the 3000 M
Run. And Natalie Lambert won the 400 M hurdles with
a time of 1:09.80.

Claire Whalen was second in the high jump at 4
feet eight inches.

The DMR team of Kanyon Pepples, Natalie
Lambert, Josie Breitsprecher and Erica Rittgers finished
third with a combined time of 4:34.08.

Mady was third in the long jump at 15.25 feet
and Alli True was second in the 2,000 with 11:47.96.

The 4 x 400 team of Katara Jondle, Shelby
Cummins, Karissa Hiesterman, and Savanah Seehusen
finished third at 4:18.66.

The 4 x 200 team of Katara Jondle, Karissa Hiesterman, Savanah Seehusen and Kanyon Pepples also
finished third with a combined time of 1:57.24.

The 4 x 100 team of Katara, Shelby, Karissa and
Savanah placed fifth with a combined score of 55:52.

The SMR team of Katara, Shelby, Mady, and
Alli was fifth at 2:03.93. Erica was sixth in the 200 at
28:49.

The Shuttle Hurdle Relay team of Mady Jaeschke, Shelby Cummins, Leslie Housken, and Karissa
Hiesterman was sixth with a time of 1:18.49.

Katara Jondle was fifth in the 100. Kasey Lundberg was fifth in the 3000 at 12:41.98.

The 4 x 800 team of Savanah Seehusen, Sammy
Alphs, Emma Graves, and Lanie Nelson finished fourth
with a time of 11:53.89.

Jaiden Ackerson was fifth in the shot put at
324 and sixth in the discus at 9010.

It was a cold night of running but the girls had

Vernon E. Swanson Crosses to France
As appeared in The Gowrie News, October 12, 1944...

Sgt. Vernon E. Swanson has arrived in France
after having been in England a month. When the letter was written, September 3, he was living in a tent.
Selmer Lennarson is in a medical detachment of the same
unit while Sgt. Eldon Danielson and Pvt. Duane Smith of
Harcourt, are also in the same division. Vernon thoroughly enjoyed their stay in England where he visited many
historical places. His letter follows:
Dear Mr. Patton,

It has been quite some time since I last sat down
and wrote to you concerning another one of Gowries
G.I.s. And today marks the completion of my first year
in the U.S. Army, so it is fitting that I sit down in my tent
and pass on a few of my experiences during the past several months.

After I left Virginia Military Institute and said
goodbye to ASTP, I landed at Indiantown Gap Military
Reservation where I stayed from March to the middle of
July - one of my many transferred into the 95th Inf. Division. I guess I was a little more fortunate than the rest
in that I became Communications Sergeant of my unit.
While stationed there, I visited Washington , D.C., New
York, Philadelphia, and spent three weeks in the West
Virginia mountains - and, best of all, a ten day furlough
in Gowrie. Selmer Lennarson is in this outfit and weve
had many good talks, though I havent seen him of late.
The last two months we were trained and equipped for
overseas, so it was no surprise when we pulled out for an
eastern P.O.E.

I enjoyed an uneventful but interesting trip to
England, where we were placed in barracks for about a
month. During this time we were privileged to visit quite
a few places of importance - and I really made the most

of such opportunities. There are four of us fellows in my
company who chum around together continually, and I
dont believe any other group saw as much of England as
we did in the time we stayed there. In our pass to London,
we covered nearly every historic spot and experienced
things that can only be experienced in London. These
people and their country impressed me very much, and I
certainly hope I can return there again and see more of it.

At present I am in my little tent in a field somewhere in France. Were living outdoors all the time, and
personally I like it except for crawling out on these frosty
mornings. To date our schedule permits us to participate
in sports most of the day, but what lies ahead we have no
idea. We take advantage of evenings and Sundays to get
around and see our section of France, and I have enough
reading and speaking knowledge of French to get along
enough to enjoy this country that much more.

Yep, Ive completed a year in the army, and I
can truthfully say its been a great experience, and Im
looking forward to the rest of it. Of course Im looking
forward to also getting home, but theres a job to be done,
and until it is completed, I aim to make the most of moving from one interesting place to another and seeing those
things Ive always wanted to see.

I havent received a Gowrie News since I arrived over here, so feel a little behind times concerning
the good old home town. But you can bet Ill appreciate
each issue all the more

Regards to all who make Gowrie the place to
come home to.

Canteen Cafe Fire...

Dear Editor:

In 1949 or 1950 my parents bought the Canteen
Cafe and operated it for a few years before selling it and
moving to Fort Dodge.

Some time afterward, the Canteen burned down
and was destroyed. Could you please tell me the date of
the fire and, if possible, could you send me any information on the fire?

I was in the military during those years and
know nothing of it except that it actually happened.

The restaurant occupied only one half of the
first story of the building. The other half was pretty much
empty except for a stack of folding chairs and miscellaneous stuff.

This second room was used (very rarely) for
overflow crowds and also was the meeting place of the
Gowrie Branch of The American Legion.

Since they held their meetings there, their members would have been very aware of the fire.

There may no longer be any Legion members
who were active at that time, but I suspect even younger
members would have picked up many stories about the
fire from older guys who were Legionairs at the time of
the fire.

Additionally, American Legion records or logs
or histories might very well have had good, complete records of the loss of their meeting place.

Thanks very much for anything you can send or
anything you might remember of that loss.
Sincerely,
Ray Shaw - Merriam, KS

which land is to be included as part of this amended Urban Renewal
Area.

A copy of the Amendment is on file for public inspection in the office
of the County Auditor, Courthouse, Fort Dodge, Iowa.

The general scope of the urban renewal activities under consideration
in the Amendment is to promote the growth and retention of qualified
industries and businesses in the Urban Renewal Area through various
public purpose and special financing activities outlined in the Amendment.
The County also may reimburse or directly undertake the installation,
construction and reconstruction of substantial public improvements,
including, but not limited to, street, water, sanitary sewer, storm sewer or
other public improvements. The Amendment provides that the County
may issue bonds or use available funds for purposes allowed by the Plan,
as amended, and that tax increment reimbursement of the costs of urban
renewal projects may be sought if and to the extent incurred by the County.
The Amendment initially proposes no specific public infrastructure or site
improvements to be undertaken by the County, and provides that the
Amendment may be amended from time to time.

The proposed Amendment No. 4 would add additional land and add
and/or confirm the list of proposed eligible projects to be undertaken within
the Urban Renewal Area. Other provisions of the Plan not affected by the
Amendment would remain in full force and effect.

Any person or organization desiring to be heard shall be afforded an
opportunity to be heard at such hearing.

This notice is given by order of the Board of Supervisors of Webster
County, State of Iowa, as provided by Section 403.5 of the Code of Iowa.

representative Dave Wood discussed the substation circuit breakers.
They are Allis Chalmers breakers that were manufactured in 1949, and are
in need of repair. He estimated new breakers will cost $250,000 plus labor,
re-wiring, and a lengthy outage, but he stated that the old breakers are
worth rebuilding. Board members had previously individually approved
emergency rebuilding of one breaker in very bad condition. Vangilder
moved to accept the Ziegler proposal to remove the four remaining
breakers, send breakers to a specialty shop for rebuilding, and test and
re-install them for $92,892. This is a discount of 10% by re-building all
breakers and they can be done in sequence to avoid outages. Second by
Rentschler. Motion carried unanimously.

Southeast Valley Building Trades class...

The Building Trades course is seeking a member of the community
wishing to have a home built by students from the community.
Prairie School Board postpones capital

improvements at High School for one year
Floor cleaning machine saves PV $1,000 per year. . .. . .
By Jill Viles

Capital projects of the south wing of the PV High
School were discussed at the April 20 meeting of the PV
School Board.

Its been proposed the ICN room be updated. This
may involve removing a wall and updating windows, as
well as other changes. An architect was assigned to produce
drawings of proposed projects. The district requested the
plans merge the old with the new.

However, when the architect came to discuss potential changes, he was concerned that if the district completes just a partial renovation at this time, this could lead
to a serious design error and would require going back and
re-doing some of the work.

It was decided the district should wait one more
summer before making a decision, and then bid out for the
work. Phone calls are acceptable in terms of seeking information regarding the bidding process, but it was pointed out
that the district should request many bids and also place an
advertisement in the paper.

Weve got to have the community behind it, said
board member Joe Harrison.

Irwin concurred. Its time to step back. Its just
too tight a schedule right now.

Willardson offered shed like to see the building
fund up first.

2015 WATER QUALITY REPORT FOR DAYTON MUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLY

This report contains important information regarding the water quality in our water system. The source of our water is groundwater Our water quality
testing shows the following results:

Note: Contaminants with dates indicate results from the most recent
testing done in accordance with regulations.
DEFINITIONS

Maximum Contaminant Level (MCL) - The highest level of a
contaminant that is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the
MCLGs as feasible using the best available treatment technology.

Maximum Contaminant Level Goal (MCLG) -- The level of a
contaminant in drinking water below which there is no known 01 expected
risk to health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.

ppb -- parts per billion.

ppm -- parts per million.

pCi/L - picocuries per liter

NI A - Not applicable

ND -- Not detected

RAA - Running Annual Average

LRAA - Locational Running Annual Average

Treatment Technique (TT) - A required process intended to reduce
the level of a contaminant in drinking water.

Action Level (AL) - The concentration of a contaminant which, if
exceeded, triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system
must follow.

Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level Goal (MRDLG) - The level of
a drinking water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected
risk to health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants
to control microbial
contaminants.

Maximum Residual Disinfectant Level (MRDL) - The highest level of
a disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence that
addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial contaminants.

SGL - Single Sample Result

TCR- Total Coliform Rule
GENERAL INFORMATION
Drinking water, including bottled water, may reasonably be expected to
contain at least small amounts of some contaminants. The presence of
contaminants does not necessarily indicate that water posed a health risk.
More information about contaminants or potential health effects can be
obtained by calling the Environmental Protection Agency's Safe Drinking
Water Hotline (800-426- 4791).

Some people may be more vulnerable to contaminants in drinking
water than the general population. Immuno-compromised persons such
as persons with cancer undergoing chemotherapy, persons who have
undergone organ transplants, people with HIV/AIDS or
other immune system disorders, some elderly, and infants can be
particularly at risk from infections. These people should seek advice about
drinking water from their health care providers. EPA/CDC guidelines on
appropriate means to lessen the risk of infection by Cryptosporidium and
other microbial contaminants are available from the Safe Drinking Water
Hotline (800-426-4791).

If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems,
especially for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking
water is primarily from materials and components associated with service

lines and home plumbing. DAYTON MUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLY is
responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot control
the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water
has been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for
lead exposure by flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before
using water for drinking or cooking. If you are concerned about lead in
your water, you may wish to have your water tested. Information on lead
in drinking water, testing methods and steps you can take to minimize
exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or at http://
www.epa.gov/safewater/lead.
ADDITIONAL HEAL TH INFORMATION

Fluoride in children's drinking water at levels of approximately I mg/L
reduces the number of dental cavities. However, some children exposed
to levels of fluoride greater than about 2.0 mg/L may develop dental
fluorosis. Dental fluorosis, in its moderate and severe forms, is a brown
staining or pitting of the permanent teeth, or both.

Because dental fluorosis occurs only when developing teeth (before
they erupt from the gums) are exposed to elevated fluoride levels,
households without children are not expected to be affected by this level of
fluoride.

Families with children under the age of nine are encouraged to seek
other sources of drinking water for their children to avoic the possibility of
staining and pitting.

Your water supplier can lower the concentration of fluoride in your
water so you will still receive the benefits of cavity prevention while the
possibility of stained and pitted teeth is minimized. Removal of fluoride
may increase your water costs.

Treatment systems are also commercially available for home use.
Information on such systems is available at the address given by your
public water supplier. Low fluoride bottled drinking water that would meet
all standards is also commercially available.
SOURCE WATER ASSESSMENT INFORMATION

This water supply obtains its water from the limestone and dolomite
of the Mississippian-Devonian aquifer. The MississippianDevonian aquifer
was determined to have low susceptibility to contamination because the
characteristics of the aquifer and overlying materials provide natural
protection from contaminants at the land surface. The MississippianDevonian wells will have low susceptibility to surface contaminants such
as leaking underground storage tanks, contaminant spills, and excess
fertilizer application. A detailed evaluation of your source water was
completed by the Iowa Department of Natural Resources, and is available
from the Water Operator at 515-547-2711.
CONT ACT INFORMATION

For questions regarding this information or how you can get involved
in decisions regarding the water system, please contact DAYTON
MUNICIPAL WATER SUPPLY at 515-547-2711.

The 2015 Water Quality Report will not be mailed to customers, but
will be provided to any customer requesting it by contacting the City Clerk's
office at 515-547-2711.

School District purchases

flooring cleaning machine

The high school custodians have requested a machine to facilitate the cleaning of floors. Currently, a product
must be used that removes wax from the floor before it is
cleaned, but this machine can complete the work of wax
removal and cleaning in a single step result in a decrease
of 50-75% if the time it takes to wax and clean floors.
Additionally, this saves the district $1,000 a year in
cleaning products. The board approved the $3,114 price
for this machine.
Building Trades class

The Building Trades course is seeking a member
of the community wishing to have a home built by students
from the community. If an interested individual is not found,
the class will participate in a renovation project, but the district strongly prefers to pursue a house building project. Previously, two parties have come forward, but backed out in
the planning process.

Board member, Gary Welter, inquired how a previous years spec house worked out. A spec house is a home
constructed without an owner and designed to attract a buyer.

Not well, said Harrison who is also a city council
member. The city held onto the property for three years.

I sure hope someone steps up by the next meeting, said Irwin.

The district would like to let those potentially interested in this endeavor, that partaking in this type of arrangement can lead to a 30% reduction in construction
costs. This can be quite an attractive situation for a potential
buyer. Also, it was noted that the family that participated in
the home building project in a previous year has expressed
they were pleased with the results.
Other business

Moving on to other discussion, the 2016-2017
academic calendar was discussed. It was noted that people
are most concerned about when in-service days will fall, and
there has been a definite preference for full days for in-service rather than half days. Irwin noted the calendar reflects
this preference as there is only one half-day professional development day.

Board member Gary Welter suggested that on
previous conference days there have been teachers unavailable at conference time because they are assisting with an
extra-curricular activity. He suggested the teachers should
be available for conference days.

Next, it was agreed to keep the majority of school
funds with Security Savings Bank. Each year the district is
asked to pass a depository resolution. It was noted previous
loan rates have hovered around 1% and the board is pleased
with this.

Theyve [Security Savings Bank] has treated us
well, remarked Shannon Miller.

The list of the 78 candidates to be graduated from
Southeast Valley was presented and approved. Elementary
school principal, Jim Duncan, reported that Prairie Valley
Elementary has been named a STEM certified coding partner. This means students have been taught to make a computer program by telling the computer what to do.

Additionally, Mr. Duncan reported 45 kindergartners have enrolled in kindergarten, but he typically sees
more enrollees in May and later in July.

There is a music concert next Tuesday April 26th
for 3rd and 4th grade students. The program for TK-2nd
grade will be held May 9th.
