Atlantic Area Chamber Ambassadors Visit Pawsome

News

October 28th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Atlantic, Iowa) – The Atlantic Chamber Ambassadors were hosted on Thursday, by Abbey Bishop, owner of Pawsome, and her team. The Ambassadors viewed Pawsome’s new dog boarding and grooming facility located just outside of Atlantic. Abbey Bishop has always loved working with dogs, and after high school graduation, she was introduced to a family friend that allowed her to intern at a grooming business. Fast-forward three years, and Abbey is proud to debut the recent addition to her already successful grooming business.

Pawsome opened on East 7th Street in 2019 and in April 2021, Abbey and her dad started construction on a new boarding facility located on their family property. Abbey and her dad spent long nights and weekends bringing the vision to life, and in June of 2022, the facility was filled with dogs being cared for while their families were away. 

Pawsome offers affordable dog grooming and boarding for dogs of all sizes. Boarding dogs can experience the luxuries of home during their stay such as raised dog beds, plush blankets, walks twice a day and individual runs providing indoor/outdoor accesses 24/7. Pawsome offers grooming appointments as simple as a bath and nail trim to a full nose to tail groom. Appointments with either of the two groomers, Abbey or Alex, can be made by phone. The team is working on a website that will allow online appointments and reservations to be made.

Pawsome is located at 56908 Galveston Road just outside of Atlantic. For more information and pricing, call 712-254-9010 or visit their Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/PAWsomeitems

Gov. Reynolds signs Harvest Proclamation extension, addresses potential fuel issues in the State of Iowa 

Ag/Outdoor, News

October 28th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

DES MOINES – Today (Friday), Governor Kim Reynolds signed proclamations relating to the weight limits and transportation of grain, fertilizer, manure, and motor fuels. The Harvest Proclamation is effective immediately and continues through November 27, 2022. The proclamation allows vehicles transporting corn, soybeans, hay, straw, silage, stover, fertilizer (dry, liquid, and gas), and manure (dry and liquid) to be overweight (not exceeding 90,000 pounds gross weight) without a permit for the duration of this proclamation.

A separate proclamation allows vehicles transporting motor fuels including gasoline, diesel #1, diesel #2, ethanol, biodiesel, aviation gas, and jet fuel to be overweight (not exceeding 90,000 pounds gross weight) without a permit. The proclamation also temporarily suspends regulatory provisions of Iowa law pertaining to hours of service for crews and drivers hauling motor fuels. Increased demand, along with above average wait times at petroleum product terminals, have created challenges to timely access of these fuels. That proclamation is effective immediately and expires on November 27, 2022.

The proclamations apply to loads transported on all highways within Iowa (excluding the interstate system) and those which do not exceed a maximum of 90,000 pounds gross weight, do not exceed the maximum axle weight limit determined under the non-primary highway maximum gross weight table in Iowa Code § 321.463 (6) (b), by more than 12.5 percent, do not exceed the legal maximum axle weight limit of 20,000 pounds, and comply with posted limits on roads and bridges.

Sometimes it really does “Take a village” to help those in need – Farmers harvest 550 acres for Union County family

Ag/Outdoor, News

October 28th, 2022 by Ric Hanson

(Union County, Iowa) – Dozens of Iowa farmers came together in Union County to harvest 550 acres in a single day. It happened just one week after Paul Baker of Creston unexpectedly died at the age of 66. KCCI reports five fields at the Baker farm needed work, and Baker’s friends readily accepted the challenge. They used 18 combines, 40 tractor-trailers, and 20 grain carts to get the job done by noon.

Baker’s daughters were touched but say they aren’t surprised, because they said, parents want to set good examples for their children and future generations. A local business provided sack lunches for the farmers. Students from the Saint Malachy School in Creston decorated the lunch sacks and wrote every farmer a thank you note.

There have been other reported gatherings of farmers and their equipment in Iowa and across the Midwest, who rose to the occasion and helped another farmer in need, even while their own crops still need to be harvested.
