Atlantic Parks and Rec Board received QL survey information

News

January 22nd, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Atlantic, Iowa) – The City of Atlantic’s Parks and Recreation Board, Monday night, received a report from Cass County Wellness Coordinator Brigham Hoegh, with regard to work of the Quality of Life Committee, and based on a number of studies conducted last year, on what residents of the county and beyond, want to see in Cass County, to improve the quality of life here.

The “What people want and Need” study, she said covered several areas, including Physical and Outdoor Recreation. Hoegh said as far as she’s concerned, out of all the studies conducted last year, Mental Health stood out as the most important in the Cass County Community Health Needs Assessment.

She said the needs were ranked by 470 people from across the county, represented by town, income and race, and incorporated an outdoor recreation survey along with COVID-19 Mobile Food registration information. In order of Health Needs priority, was Mental Health. That includes the need to reduce stigma of those with mental health issues, access to care, and programs that address physical health, community building and the impact of isolation on mental health.

Next, was Quality, affordable Childcare, which was described as being a “Vicious cycle” that is not being adequately address, and includes low wage for childcare employees resulting in fewer employees and fewer kids served and no affordable care for low-income families and inconsistent drop-off and pick-up hours. It also suggested potential opportunities exist in school/city/business/employer partnerships.

On the Physical/Outdoor side of the survey, it was noted Cass County needs more and better ADA compliant sidewalks, trail connectivity (Including the connection of the T-Bone Trail to Atlantic), and more water trails instead of ATV Trails. Another area that stood out in the Quality of Life survey, was Substance Misuse and Addition, which is said to be widespread in Cass County, and the need for better nutrition through fresh fruits and vegetables from community gardens, and access to those types of foods.

(She suggested people rent one of the raised garden beds at Mollett Park and grow food for the those in the community who might not otherwise be able to afford it.)

As we mentioned following Monday night’s Park and Rec Board meeting, the Board approved a contribution of $4,000 toward the $12,000 cost of a study designed to move forward on getting a Splash Pad at the Sunnyside Pool and other renovations/remodeling at the pool. Those items were high on the Physical/Outdoor Recreation priority list. To that end, and in other recreation news, Atlantic Parks & Rec Director Bryant Rasmussen, Monday, said plans are in the works to bring sand volleyball to Atlantic.

An area just north of the Schildberg Rec Campground is being looked at as a possible location for those courts. Much needs to be done though before resources are committed to the project. Bryant says if the courts become a reality, there is the potential to bring in some high profile competitors from Omaha and Des Moines, as part of their traveling circuit.

Separately, there is the potential for expansion of the Little League/Soccer Comples across from the KJAN Studios.

Drake women squeeze past UNI

Sports

January 21st, 2022 by admin

DES MOINES — The Drake University women’s basketball team regained some of its offensive rhythm, played solid defense and ended a four-game losing streak with a 65-57 victory over Northern Iowa at the Knapp Center on Friday night.

Freshman post Anna Miller scored the go-ahead basket on a leaner inside with 2:14 left and led all scorers with 16 points as the Bulldogs won for the first time since beating Evansville on New Year’s Day. Drake improved to 10-8 overall and 2-5 in the Missouri Valley Conference by snapping its longest losing streak since dropping four in a row during the 2013-14 season.

Northern Iowa, which had won three straight, fell to 10-6 and 3-2 and has lost six straight at the Knapp Center. Drake has now defeated the Panthers 12 times in the last 13 meetings.

Miller posted an impressive stat line all the way through, making 7-of-14 shots, grabbing eight rebounds, handing out two assists and blocking two shots. Grace Berg bounced back from two subpar games to score 13 points on 5-for-9 shooting while adding five rebounds, five assists and two steals. She had totaled only eight points in the two previous games.

Megan Meyer scored 11 points for the Bulldogs and Maggie Bair had 10 to go with seven rebounds, including a key bucket in the final minute.

Karli Rucker led Northern Iowa with 12 points and Nicole Kroeger scored 11.

Drake will try to build on the victory when it plays at Bradley next Thursday, Jan. 27. Game time is 6:30 p.m.

CAM boys ride quick start to win over Exira-EHK

Sports

January 21st, 2022 by admin

The CAM boys basketball team jumped out to a ten point lead in the first quarter against Exira-EHK on Friday night and made the Spartans try to play catch up the rest of the night. The Cougars ultimately prevailed 61-56. The Cougars led by as many as 15 in the second quarter, but the Spartans used a 10-3 run to get within 6 by half. The Spartans got the first bucket of the second half, but Sam Foreman hit a three to put the Cougars back up by 7 and the Spartans wouldn’t get any closer than that until the final seconds. CAM Head Coach Ian Hunt said getting on top early was big for his team.

Seth Hensley was a spark-plug for the Cougars, dropping in 11 points in the first quarter. He would go on to finish the night with 24 points to lead all scorers. Coach Hunt loved Hensley’s aggressiveness.

Sam Foreman added 13 points for CAM and Colby Rich had 12, with both players hitting timely threes in the second half. CAM improved to 9-3 on the season. The Cougars will travel to West Harrison for their next contest on Tuesday.

Exira-EHK was led by 15 points from Cash Emgarten and 13 from Jackson Radcliff. The Spartans fall to 10-4 on the year. Next up for the Spartans in a road trip to Coon Rapids-Bayard on Tuesday.

Emgarten leads Exira-EHK girls to big road win over CAM

Sports

January 21st, 2022 by admin

Macy Emgarten poured in 22 points and led Exira-EHK to a big 56-43 road win over CAM on Friday night. CAM led by 2 at the end of the first, but the Cougars only managed 2 more in the second quarter to fall behind 27-16 by half. The Spartans kept the intensity up in the second half and earned the season sweep over the Cougars.

Emgarten was consistent all night with 12 points in the first half and 10 in the second. She did a great job roaming the baseline to find open spaces and Exira-EHK Head Coach Tom Petersen said they wanted to try to attack that area of the floor.

Exira-EHK’s 2-3 zone was very effective in limiting CAM’s offensive looks throughout the game. Coach Petersen said they’ve been working hard on improving their zone pressure.

The Spartans also got 14 points from Mollie Rasmussen and 10 from Quinn Grubbs. Exira-EHK stays unbeaten at 12-0 on the season. Next up for the Spartans is a road trip to Red Oak on Monday.

Mallory Behnken had a nice game in the post for CAM and finished with 22 points. Eva Steffensen added 12 as the Cougars fall to 11-3 on the season. Next up for CAM is a trip to West Harrison next Tuesday.
