(Glenwood, Iowa) – The Mills County Sheriff’s Office reports two accident took place last Friday. Authorities say a 2018 Hyundai driven by 65-year-old Debora Olerich, of Malvern, was traveling east on East 3rd Street at around 11:10-p.m., when her vehicle struck a 2014 Dodge, driven by 66-year-old Robert Muellner, of Randolph, after he failed to yield the right-of-way at the uncontrolled intersection with Prospect Avenue. Olerich was transported to Mercy Hospital by Malvern Rescue. Authorities cited Muellner for Failure to Yield.

And, at around 8:33-a.m., Friday, a 2020 Mack truck driven by 28-year-old Cody Lyons, of LaVista, NE., was traveling east on Highway 34 in a construction zone, and passed several construction zone signs indicating a maximum load width limit of 10-feet. The bulldozer he was hauling with a blade attached, scraped the concrete barricade all the way on the south side of the Highway 34 railroad bridge, which was closed to one lane because of the construction. The bulldozer blade also pushed the moveable concrete barricades along the construction zone.

Lyons told Deputies he saw the width restriction signs too late, and made an error in judgement, believing he could make it through the construction zone.

Northern Iowa’s Mark Farley previews Illinois State

Sports

October 4th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

Northern Iowa coach Mark Farley feels the defense if making significant progress. The Panthers are coming off a 20-14 win over Indiana State and take a 2-3 record into their homecoming contest against Illinois State.

Farley says the Panthers are getting a better pass rush and doing a better job of locking down receivers.

Farley says it is more about players making plays than the game plan.

Illinois State is 2-2 overall and opened the Missouri Valley race with a loss to Southern Illinois.

Farley hopes it is a raucous crowd in the UNI-Dome

NFL Hall of Famer Kurt Warner will return for homecoming and Farley says he enjoys having former players who made it in the NFL address the team.

Iowa youth group launches statewide fundraiser at noon today

Ag/Outdoor, News

October 4th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – The Iowa Four-H Foundation is holding its annual Iowa Giving Day over 24 hours from noon today (Tuesday) through noon tomorrow. While there are some 23-thousand young Iowans in the organization now, the day is an appeal to all past members and others, according to Emily Faveraid, executive director of the Ames-based foundation. “National 4H Week is a great opportunity to highlight the 4H program and all the things that it does for young people throughout the year,” Faveraid says. “Our special Iowa 4H Giving Day is an opportunity for alumni and friends to give back a little bit to support the program that has made a difference for them.”

The program has grown well beyond its original farm-centered roots and now gives young people the opportunity to explore anything and everything that interests them. “A lot of times we think of 4H as kind of an ag-focused organization, and certainly the livestock component and those county fairs are a really important part of our program, but young people are doing so many things through 4H,” Faveraid says. “They’re doing robotics, they’re looking at entrepreneurship, they’re focusing on careers.”

When you visit the website, Iowa 4-H Giving Day-dot-org, you can make a donation directly to any of 50 individual 4-H clubs in Iowa. “We’re also fundraising generally for programs across the state and focusing on the 4H priority areas of STEM, healthy living, leadership and civic engagement, ag and natural resources,” Faveraid says. “Dollars donated to those programs will go back to support curriculum development and trips and special programs that can support and impact young people across the state.”

Anyone can donate, not just former members, and the minimum donation is $5. She says any gift, large or small, is part of a collective effort to strengthen the 4-H program and better serve Iowa’s youth.
