Helen Rowe says Michelle Short is a hero for bringing Murray to the window each day for her to see him. National Skilled Nursing Care Week By Emily Souvignier In generations past, one never had to go very far to find fresh, home grown fruits and vegetables straight from one’s backyard garden. What used to be a standard way of life for nearly the entire human population was eventually reduced to a hobby for a majority of people, especially in more urban settings, with the passage of time. But in light of the current global pandemic, numerous individuals and families are trying their hand at gardening as a way of being more self-sufficient, and many of them are doing it for the first time. In mid-March when most of the nation heightened its social distancing guidelines and schools and businesses began closing their doors, it wasn’t just toilet paper, hand sanitizer, flour and eggs that began to fly off the shelves as Americans prepared for an unprecedented lockdown. Seeds and other gardening supplies also became hot commodities as well. While one’s personal reasons for starting their own “pandemic gardens” may range from individual food security to finding a new hobby to occupy their suddenly open schedules, it has quickly become one of the most popular new hobbies for families across the country. Although it is not the first time she has ever had a garden, Suzanne Anderson, of rural Canton, says she and her family are growing a berry patch and several types of vegetables for the first time this year. “We are usually so busy and gone so much over the summer that having a garden isn’t feasible,” she said. “With a clear calendar, I will be able to have the boys help me give the raspberries, blueberries and strawberries a good start.” In addition to the berries, Anderson and her family are planting tomatoes, cucumbers, snap peas, lettuce and spinach. Likewise, Erin Ockenga and her family, also from the Canton area, are establishing their own garden this year due to the extra time they now have on their hands. “We have wanted to do this for a few years and never made the time. This year we have had a bit more time on our hands than usual,” Ockenga said. “It’s a good idea to know where your food comes from and try to be self-reliant. I think we are seeing a good example of that in today’s society.” To start, the Ockengas plan on growing cucumbers, corn, green beans, peas, pumpkins, peppers, onions, strawberries, potatoes and herbs, as well as several types of flowers to attract bees. Jeff and Dawn Kroger, also of rural Canton, recently planted two large feed bunks as well as a pumpkin patch. “We were hoping to have the grandkids help, but hopefully they can help us harvest,” Dawn said. “We have never had time to do a garden and are hoping the feed bunks will help us be successful. We are rookies!” This isn’t the first time in our history that a surge of small family gardens emerged suddenly due to a worldwide crisis. During World War I and World War II, common household food items such as sugar, flour, milk, eggs, butter, coffee and canned goods were rationed by the United States government, and widespread labor and transportation shortages made it difficult for fruits and vegetables to be available at market. As a result, the government encouraged American citizens to establish what was known as “Victory Gardens” in order to produce their own food during the shortage. At the time, most farm families had already been planting their own gardens for generations. However, in more urban settings, the practice was a little more rare. Soon, Americans all over the country began planting their “Victory Gardens” nearly anywhere they could: backyards, empty lots, churchyards, city parks, and even city rooftops. And now, as the world weathers the storm known as the coronavirus pandemic, the practice of gardening has once again become one of the fastest growing hobbies across the country. Canton resident Dave Dixon believes there are many benefits to having your own garden, whether its during a pandemic or not. “Most of us don’t have to go back very far in our family history to think of a family member who, by and large, grew and harvested their own food. What they could not provide for themselves, they likely purchased from someone locally,” Dixon said. “Luke Karel, an avid Canton gardener, recently told me it shouldn’t take a global pandemic to encourage people to grow food. There are many reasons for doing so: self-reliance, education, mental health. I think the most universal selling point of growing your own food is fresh-grown produce from your own yard or town.” And while there are many benefits to growing your own fresh fruits and vegetables, it is worth noting that not everyone may have the luxury of having a space sufficient enough for growing and maintaining a garden. To assist those who would like their own garden but lack the space, the City of Canton, in conjunction with the Good Samaritan Society of Canton, offers a community garden to the public. For $20, citizens will receive a 10’ x 10’ plot to grow whatever they would like. The city has tilled the plots and is currently accepting applications. Dixon also added that in addition to being practical, gardening is something he and his family enjoys doing together as well. “During the harvest months we like to play a game to see how much of our dinner came from our garden,” he said. “It’s fulfilling going from planting to harvesting, to kitchen to table all within the same property. It also nearly entirely eliminates the estimated 1,500 miles of travel it takes for a typical meal to reach our plate. There is a peace of mind in a simple food system.” For more information on purchasing a garden plot in the community garden, please contact City Hall at 605-987-2881.

Signals that Shape Virtue

Southtown CommentaryBy Pastor Jerry Miller

When I was a child I had a very talented phy ed teacher. He came up with a lot of really neat games. One of my favorite games was “steal the bacon.” Hockey sticks were used as “bacon” and were placed in a marked off area under the basket ball hoops on each end of the court. Once the half court line was crossed you were on the opposing team’s side and if you were tagged you had to go to jail. The jail was the out of bounds line behind the “bacon.” You could get out of jail if a teammate tagged you without getting tagged themselves. The object of the game was to steal all the other team’s “bacon” before they stole yours.

As these games were developed by our teacher, he would often tweak the rules as he went. Since our teacher was the one making the game, he had the right to make the rules.

We did not always like his rules and sometimes we even resented them. Still those rules brought stability and were much better than the games at recess that were largely unsupervised. During those times it was not unusual for one of the children to want to change the rules. The problem was that others did not agree with those rule changes. Further the rule changes were often for selfish reasons.

I am no longer a child playing during recess, but as I interact with other adults on social media, I sometimes feel a sense of deja vu. Rather than trying to change the rules about stealing the bacon, it seems that some want to make their own rules about what is right and what is wrong. In fact the term “virtue signaling” has developed as way to share frustration with this phenomena.

As a Christian, I am all in favor of reminding people to live lives of virtue. Philippians 4:8 says, “Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if

there is anything praiseworthy--meditate on these things.” (NKJV)

The problem is not in reminding people of the importance of virtue. The problem is that we as a society are not able to agree about what positions are virtuous and which ones are not. I feel like we need the teacher to step in and to tell us which rules to follow.

For tunately we have such a teacher. He cares about us even more than any teacher we have ever had. He cares about us so much that he went to the cross and died for our sins. That teacher is Jesus Christ. As God, he has the authority to set the rules and to tell us what they are. Some do not want to accept his authority or his rules, but if we reject his rules, why should we accept theirs?

An ordered society needs to have someone setting some basic rules. I want that somebody to be God. If someone other than God makes all the rules, it will be too easy for the rules to be made for selfish purposes.

Jesus warned about getting our rules from man rather than God. “‘BUT IN VAIN DO THEY WORSHIP ME, TEACHING AS DOCTRINES THE PRECEPTS OF MEN.’ “Neglect ing the commandment of God, you hold to the tradition of men.” (Mark 7:7-8 NASB)

For years we have warned about legalism from within the church, but we are also seeing legalism from outside the church. Although we should have rules and virtue within an ordered society, let us make sure that those standards are coming from God and not from some condescending signals apart from God. www.southtownchurch.com

BirthdayMartha Beer is celebrating her 85th

During this pandemic, the Library has been closed to the Public and we haven’t received very many new books. Now we have good news! The Library will be opening to the Public on Monday, May 18 at 9:00 am. We will be operating on limited hours, Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. We will limit the number of patrons in the library to 10 at a time, and each guest will be required to use hand sanitizer upon entry and exit. The furniture has been moved to accommodate social distancing. We will continue to offer curbside service to those patrons who do not feel comfortable entering the building. In the meantime, are you signed up to use the digital library “Overdrive”? Give the library a call to get signed up to enjoy ebooks and audio books for all ages, and magazines. Check out the many databases available from the State Library, through our website.

Because we have not been receiving new titles, we encourage our patrons to explore new authors and genres. As we plan our summer vacation, I enjoy reading books about our destination, some fictional stories, as well as non-fiction books. It is fun to know what to look for, and get a feel of what life might be like there. Just a personal thought to keep reading!

Imagine your stor y…we are making plans for our Summer Reading Program, with a reading challenge and great rewards for all that participate. Stay tuned for more information!

We want to thank our many faithful patrons for the treats and support. It means so much to all of us that you realize the Library is a vital part of our community. We have enjoyed serving you during the closure, and are most definitely looking forward to seeing all of our patrons on May 18, 2020. Stay healthy and keep reading!

The importance of accessible health care is evident during the COVID-19 pandemic, but a hospital is more than just a place to treat disease. It is a place for new life, education, rehabilitation, social and economic impact, and much more. A hospital, and the dedicated professionals who work there, are essential to the health and hope of a community.

During National Hospital Week, Sanford Canton-Inwood Medical Center recognizes all health care workers, including over 100

local employees, who dedicate themselves 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, to ensure quality medical care is available.

National Hospital Week was established in 1953, and this year it will be celebrated from May 10 to 16. The dates overlap the celebration of National Nurses Week (May 6 through 12), chosen to coincide with Florence Nightingale’s birthday, honoring her role in revolut ionizing hospital care in the mid 1800’s. This year’s National Hospital

Week theme is “Prepared to Care”, an appropriate tribute to the millions health care workers who care for their neighbors with competence, dedication, and compassion.

“When you think of health care professionals, doctors and nurses immediately come to mind. There are so many more, including housekeeping, therapists, food service workers, maintenance, administration, laboratory, and many others who play a crucial role on our team,” said Scott

Larson, Senior Director, Sanford Canton-Inwood

“National Hospital Week is a time for us to recognize all of the employees involved in delivering health care to our community,” said Larson. “Our employees are the heart of the care we provide. Please join me in thanking every one of them.”

Part of the Sanford Canton-Inwood team gathered for a photo to celebrated National Hospital Week, May 10-16.

Hospital Week Recognizes All Health Care Employees

I’ll say it right off the bat, the Class of 2020 graduation looks different than those of the past – that’s no secret. Graduating amid a pandemic shouldn’t make your day any less special, though. A graduation day is still something to celebrate and all of South Dakota knows our 2020 graduates worked hard to get to where they are.

When I look back on my graduation day from T.F. Riggs High School and the University of South Dakota, I’m ashamed to admit , but i f I ’m being honest, I don’t remember the commencement speaker or who I was sitting next to. While, I may not remember the minute details, I still carry with me the lessons from my years in college and high school.

The memories of high school and college go beyond just one day. For me, most of my memories were made in the classroom and during extracurr icular activities. It’s hard to appreciate your education when you’re in the thick of it – but I promise, when you’re an old man like me, you’ll look back on those days fondly.

Last year, I had the opportunity to go to high school senior Addison Miller’s graduation party – he mailed an invitation to my office and I showed up. I’m

disappointed I won’t get to do that for any of you this year.

As a 2020 graduate you’ll have a more interesting story than most of us when it comes to graduation day. The changes and experiences you’ve faced during the last few months will likely shape education and learning for years to come – you are a part of history.

So even if the day itself didn’t go quite how you expected, you should be incredibly proud of your accomplishment, because South Dakota is sure proud of you.

Lincoln Co. Sheriff's Log April 19-May 2

This 1972’s Mothers Day ad shows 4 of Canton’s moms at the time backthen, who all work at the Noid’s Rexall Pharmacy Drug Store and gift shopon South Main.

Mom could be taken out for dinner to Margie’s Coffee Shop on SouthLincoln Street, which was a good home-style cafe back in 1970. That locationis still a very good home-cooking style cafe today. It is Laurie’s Cafe today,which is also home to the big ice cream cones.

Or a family in the1 970’s could ride out to scenic Newton Hills and havereally good broasted chicken at the Drive-Inn at the southeast corner ofNewton Hills. Today a beautiful house occupies this corner.

But mom had a great store to shop on 1963 on South Main in Canton.The Canton Apparel store was a full service, comparative, great place forwomen and girls shopping.

Dear Dave,Should my wife and I tithe on

our stimulus checks? She thinks we should, but I’m not sure. In my mind, we already gave our money to Caesar—so to speak—and now he’s just giving it back. What do you think?

LukeDear Luke,Well, it’s your money you’re getting

back. The government doesn’t really create anything, it only takes money from us. And in this case, it gave you back some of what it took. I don’t really see that as a tithing circumstance.

The other side of the coin is that you really can’t go wrong being generous. The tithe is your baseline for generosity. You shouldn’t tithe or not tithe because of a set of rules, but if you’re having a theological or philosophical discussion about the tithe and how it works, I think your reasoning is sound.

It’s certainly not a salvation issue, but generosity is a good rhythm to have in your life. And honestly, these stimulus checks are kind of like tax refunds. You gave it to the

government, and now they’re giving it back.

So, in my mind it’s okay either way. I’ve just always had an attitude of when in doubt, it’s better to give.

—Dave Dear Dave,We make about $70,000 a year, and

we’re debt-free except for our house. We’re following your plan, and just started saving for retirement, but we only have $15,000 left on our mortgage. We can have that paid off in six or seven months, so would it be okay to go ahead and pay off our home as soon as possible before continuing to save for retirement?

NateDear Nate,I’m generally pretty hardcore about

sticking with the proper order while doing the Baby Steps. But in your case, with such a small amount left to pay on your home, I think I’d go ahead and knock that out.

Most of the people I talk to still have six figures left on their mortgages. There’s a big difference between that and the situation you two are in right now. Think about it, you guys could be completely debt-free

by Christmas, and you’ve already started to make a move on retirement planning. I say go for it!

Windmill Of My Mind

by Margaret Schultz

Friends, I did not create this, but I sure had fun trying to fi nd all thirty of the books. I think I only found 29, before fi nally giving up. Good luck! It begins now:

There are 30 books of the Bible in this paragraph. (There are more books than that in the Bible, but only 30 are hidden in this). Can you fi nd them? This is a most remarkable puzzle. It was found by a gentleman in an airplane seat pocket, on a fl ight from Los Angeles to Honolulu, keeping him occupied for hours. He enjoyed it so much, he passed it on to some friends. One friend from Illinois worked on this while fi shing from his john boat. Another friend studied it while playing his banjo. Elaine Taylor, a columnist friend, was so intrigued by it she mentioned it in her weekly newspaper column. Another friend judges the job of solving this puzzle so involving, that she brews a cup of tea to help her nerves. There will be some names that are really easy to spot. That’s a fact. Some people, however, will soon fi nd themselves in a jam, especially since the book names are not necessarily capitalized. Truthfully, from answers we get, we are forced to admit

it usually takes a minister or a scholar to see some of them at the worst. Research has shown that something in our genes is responsible for the diffi culty we have in seeing the books in this paragraph. During a recent fund raising event, which featured this puzzle, the Alpha Delta Phi lemonade booth set a new record. The local paper, The Chronicle, surveyed over 200 patrons who reported that this puzzle was one of the most diffi cult they had ever seen. As Daniel Humana humbly puts, it, “The books are all right here in plain view, hidden from sight.” Those able to fi nd all of them will hear great lamentations from those who have to be shown. One revelation that may help is that books like Timothy and Samuel may occur without their numbers. Also, keep in mind, that punctuation and spaces in the middle are normal. A chipper attitude will help you compete really well against those who claim to know the answers. Remember, there is no need for a mad exodus; there really are 30 books of the Bible lurking somewhere in this paragraph waiting to be found. God bless you!! Have Fun!!!

Well, I think I jinxed myself. Last week I mentioned that I hope we wouldn’t get frost on account of us finally getting our garden in, and by the end of the week, luck would have it that we got frost.

And not just one night, not two nights, but four nights in a row we were under a frost advisory.

I think everything is okay for the most part. I noticed one of my melon vines looked a little shriveled up and some tomato leaves could definitely look better, but everything else looked alright. With Saturday night’s wind, I woke up to find that some of the buckets and blankets I had weighted down over the top of my strawberries had blown away, but surprisingly the plants that had been underneath were still pretty perky. Now with that behind us, I’m definitely ready for nicer weather and a garden full of thriving fruits and vegetables.

This week I wanted to give a quick shout out to everyone who has been working together to make the Canton Helping Canton program such a success! Last month when my aunt Lori called me to tell me her idea, I KNEW it would go over very well in our community! However, I had no idea it would raise such an impressive amount of money for our local businesses in such a short amount of time. As of May 6, the project has raised over $25,000 for our community businesses to keep going during this time of struggle, and it has only been going for a few weeks.

Make sure to check every issue of The Sioux Valley News until further notice to see the updated gift card giveaway list and how you can continue entering to win. Also make sure that you join the Canton Helping Canton, We Are In This Together group on Facebook, since a lot of information regarding the giveaways is also shared there. A very special thank you goes out to not just John and Lori Lems for getting the project started, but

for all of the donors who have contributed to the gift cards week after week! THANK YOU ALL!

I am so proud of our community. Let’s keep it up!

I a l so wa nt e d t o q u ick ly congratulate the Canton High School seniors who won the annual chorus awards last week. Being awarded the Directors Award were Gabriella Isais and Ross Hilt, and awarded the National School Choral Award were Noah Hansen and Zada Broughton. Four outstanding seniors, students, singers, and role models for their peers. It has been so much fun watching them on stage all these years and they’re all very deserving of the recognition.

I saw the announcement of the awards via Instagram video, and I thought it was really neat of Chorus Director Jake Versteeg to make the announcement in that way, since the annual end-of-the-year concert wasn’t able to be held this year. Congratulations to all of the award winners, and thank you to all of the seniors for sharing your beautiful music with all of us.

Speaking of the seniors, I wanted to remind everyone about the Senior Parade this Saturday. I encourage you to get creative and help celebrate the senior class by decorating your yards, making signs and banners, and be ready to cheer all of them on as they cruise through town on Saturday beginning at 2 pm. More information about the parade can be found on page 10.

Last but not least, I hope that everyone had a Happy Mother’s Day over the weekend and was able to share it with the ones they love. We had a pancake and eggs brunch at our house on Sunday, and afterwards Ted and the kids quickly went to town and surprised me with a beautiful flower planter and an apple tree for the yard. Later in the afternoon, we went and visited my mom and brought her a couple new hanging flower baskets that the kids picked out themselves.

I know I’m a bit biased, but I was blessed with the best mom in the whole world and I’m so thankful to have her in our lives! I’m not sure what we would do without her.

It was seven years ago on Mother’s Day that I became a mom, so it’s always an extra special day for me. When Heath was born, he came six days early all on his own and made me a mom on Mother’s Day. It’s kind of cool because I remember I got a card that year from my cousin out in Denver, and it said, “Maybe Baby Boy will make an early appearance for Mother’s Day!” And sure enough, he did! Our nearly 10-pound baby was the best Mother’s Day present I’ve ever gotten and it has been amazing to watch him grow into the sweet, funny, hard-working kid that he is!

At the time of writing this, his birthday is still a couple days away, so by the time most everyone reads this, it will have passed already. But I just wanted to say a very happy birthday to our amazing, not-so-little boy Heath. We love you, buddy! I know you won’t have the birthday party this year that you imagined, but I’m so excited to celebrate your very special day!

And since it was Mother’s Day over the weekend, that means that it’s time for my dad’s annual haircut. Anyone who knows my dad knows that he is pretty clean-cut during the summer and then doesn’t shave or trim his hair until around Mother’s Day. He says he stays warmer that way during the winter. When we were younger, he would still shave his face, but he would grow his hair out. Over the past several years the beard has grown, too. So to anyone who reads this, if you happen to see the local hairy mountain man named Tim Lems this week, remind him it’s time for a trim!

I hope everyone has a safe, healthy and happy week. Special thoughts and congratulations go out to our seniors!

Letters to the EditorHow can we justify a $95,000

piano? Who is going to maintain, tune, climate the area the piano is kept? One thing I do understand is this is a WANT ITEM not a NEED ITEM. The rest of the world is locked into no extravagances. We do not have the benefit of using taxpayers money to buy big ticket items. A lot of us are struggling to pay our bills and to see our hard earned money go for this ridiculous.

Has anyone considered looking for reaching out to someone who has one of these tempermental pianos they want to get rid of? What and why is the present piano no longer usable? I am sure someone has one sitting in their house they would be more than happy to part with at a much more reasonable price and serve the same purpose. The piano I would venture to say would probably not be used by the entire student body or are you saying that a student would become a better piano player by using a $95,000 piano.

If the individual pushing this proposal were buying this item themselves, I would imagine they would be looking for a much more

cost efficient piano like $500. When working with the tax payers money, everyone f rom school system, county, local government only want the best of everything.

This is a blatant abuse of taxpayers hard earned dollars along with the taxes we are already paying in property taxes with the school system at the top of the government causing all the excessive taxation.

Normally when assessments are raised the levys are lowered or adjusted to a reasonable amount of taxation. The more we are taxed, the more obnoxious your spending becomes. If this trend continues, you will not need to worry about Canton growing. NO ONE will be able to AFFORD to live here. Long story short, if this piano cannot be justified, it is not a ridiculous waste of money and once against will only benefit a small portion of the student body. It should NOT be approved by the Canton School Board. Maybe we are getting ready for Elton John coming to the PAC? Oh did I let the cat out of the bag?

Sincerely, Reavis R. Heiskell Jr.

By Rollie SteckThe Canton City Commission

met in regular session on Monday, May 4 at 7 p.m. at the Depot. All Commissioners were present at the time of roll call.

With no Visitors to be Heard, the fi rst item under Old Business was to discuss opening the pool for the Summer. This item was tabled at the April 20 City Commission meeting. Commissioner Sara Steffensen said they have found some creative ways to limit the number of patrons. Mayor Sandra Lundstrom said they should fi ll the pool. Public Works Director Chris Krogmann asked if they are only discussing fi lling the main pool because the baby pool is much harder to maintain. He also noted that the City needs to hire lifeguards now because they will be looking for jobs elsewhere. Krogmann said it might not be a good week to start fi lling the pool due to the weather. Steffensen said it would be foolish if they do not start preparing to open the pool because it is fair to the Citizens to have the pool open. Motion to contact the lifeguards from prior years and to open the pool by Steffensen even though she said a motion is not needed. Steffensen noted that they are unclear regarding the number of patrons in the pool at this time. Unanimous approval.

The fi rst item under New Business was to Repeal the COVID-19 Ordinances and update for the COVID-19 Situation. It is being recommended that they repeal the ordinances that the City put in place regarding COVID-19. First reading will be held tonight and the second reading can be held no sooner than May 9. Publication will be offi cially on May 14. Steffensen asked if they need to publish this reading. Commissioner Todd Baldwin said yes. Baldwin mentioned that everyone needs to keep social distancing. Motion to approve the fi rst reading by Baldwin. Regarding the COVID-19 Situation, Mayor Lundstrom said

this is not over and the community needs to continue practicing social distancing and good hand washing. Baldwin said they need to open the parks and parents need to watch their children. He also mentioned that the bathrooms need to be open. Commissioner Moses Isais said you can open them as long as the City can keep them sanitized.

Isais said that they should open up the ball parks if the League agrees. Steffensen noted that the League agrees with Governor Noem’s “Back to Normal” Plan and the other Commissioners agreed. Baldwin said they need to open up soon. Citizen Nate Kleinschmit came on the phone line and said he was worried about the bathrooms. Mayor Lundstrom noted that Sioux Falls has not opened up bathrooms. Baldwin suggested they could open up the bathrooms and clean once a day.

City to Prepare to Open Pool Amid COVID-19 Fears

As we look to a brighter future for our economy and our regional businesses, we all realize we’re in uncharted territory right now, each finding our own ways to try to return to somewhat normal patterns of life and commerce. Change is inevitable, but it’s important to try to examine the positive elements of this quarantine period.

There may be a silver lining to the current social distancing and sheltering at home we’re practicing to discourage the spread of coronavirus. Most of us, whether we’re working remotely or waiting for the gradual reopening of businesses, have the time to examine our economic situation. This may be a great time to evaluate our business model, consider the educational preparation for our jobs, review employee training and to plan future actions that can impact ourselves, our families and our communities.

We’re coming together to defeat a common enemy during this time—and that sense of working together while separate can serve

us well when we are able to assemble again. As communities, we have the chance to think about public spaces, to evaluate needed commercial enterprises, to imagine new opportunities and to plan for more robust economic infrastructures in Lincoln and Minnehaha Counties.

Whether we are community leaders , elec ted of f ic ia ls , stakeholders in organizations and institutions, business owners or neighbors, this is the time to think about where we want to go. By considering—and using—the unity of purpose that is driving us today, we can find new tools to help us build a better future for our neighborhoods, our communities and our region.

So let’s look for a silver lining in the current national pandemic situation. Tomorrow—and the opportunities and new realities we find there—can be shaped by the decisions and evaluations we make today. Let’s be good neighbors, do what we can to help others and plan for the brighter days ahead.

Looking For The Positives In A Challenging Time

By Jesse Fonkert, Executive DirectorMinnehaha & Lincoln County Economic Dev. Associations

By Governor Kristi Noem May 8, 2020 I have two things that I’d like

to share with you this week: a message about South Dakota tourism, and a personal thanks to a dear friend of mine.

1. National Travel and Tourism Week is a time to recognize the important impact tourism has on our state and our nation. This year’s National Travel and Tourism Week theme centers around the “Spirit of Travel.”

Our friends and neighbors in the tourism industry could use support and encouragement. COVID-19 has hit South Dakota tourism hard. In 2019, 14.5 million visitors came to The Mount Rushmore State. They spent 4.1 billion dollars and supported more than 55,000 jobs. Our economy depends on tourism, but those numbers will likely be down for 2020. I cannot stress enough how critical the tourism industry will be in getting our economy back up and running once people feel safe traveling again.

“Great Faces, Great Places” is South Dakota tourism in a nutshell. People choose to make lifelong memories visiting South Dakota’s iconic landmarks like Mount Rushmore and Crazy Horse. They also remember the smiling faces of South Dakotans. Let’s take this week to celebrate every great face and great place that makes our state incredible.

Our tour ism industr y is resilient. If we come together and support each other, the spirit of travel will be back stronger than ever. To all of you who work in the tourism industry, we are praying for you during this difficult time. Thank you for all your work to welcome visitors to South Dakota.

When the time is right to travel again, I encourage South Dakotans to take time to explore your own backyard, travel our great state, make long-lasting memories, and support South Dakota’s tourism industry. Let’s all work to keep the “Spirit of Travel” alive and well.

2. Earlier this week, I accepted Kim Vanneman’s resignation as our State Secretar y of Agriculture. I want to thank her for years of service to our state.

Kim has been a longtime friend. She and I have worked on agriculture policy in the state of South Dakota for almost twenty years, and I don’t know of a better advocate for agriculture. She has worked hard to make sure that farmers and ranchers are supported and that we have the ability to pass our operations on to the next generation.

Kim says it’s time to return to her own family’s agriculture operation. While Kim’s title is going to change, she is going to continue to be a valuable adviser to me and an advocate for South Dakota agriculture. I can’t thank her enough for her willingness to come into our administration and lead the Department of Agriculture. She will be missed.

Lieutenant Governor Larry Rhoden will be filling in as Interim Secretary. He’ll be focused on helping South Dakota agriculture fight this pandemic, particularly by helping livestock producers gain market access and deal with supply chain bottlenecks.

South Dakotans continue to encourage me each and every day. Remember, together, we’ll get through this difficult time.

A Message and a Thank You

You know it’s a slow sports time in the country by just looking in the paper every morning and its all about stuff that normally wouldn’t be in but need something to fi ll some space. I opened up the Argus last week and the big story was who has the best back up quarterbacks in the NFL. As I read it (yeah that’s how sad I am) I did see some names I have never heard of but I looked for the Niners part and read that all the way thru. I am like a lot of people I need some real sports to watch because I am having mental problems concentrating about anything. I really need baseball to get going really soon but some warm weather would help because then a guy could think about golf. I write this and try to talk about sports when there isn’t any and it gets hard to fi nd something but lucky, I am full of beans and I can ramble on with the best of them.

I got in the girls golf records this week and I enjoy reading thru them because during the last few years I was watching a lot of the events because my daughter Emily was golfi ng. We have had some really good golf teams over the last 10 years and they won a state championship in 2017 when they won the title in Hartford. If you look over the records I can honestly say that our best golfer has to be Kylie Gaughenbaugh and I know writing about her winning the state individual title was hard because that is one long last name. She had some great scores like a 150 for the tourney in two 18 hole rounds and her career low average was 39.88 and yes that means she averaged a 39 score on a 9 hole match and I don’t know about you but I don’t get to many 39’s while I golf anymore. Kylie also has a record 33 on a round and a 74 for 18 holes and those are great scores. If her name would have been Jones I would of really liked her a lot more but she was still great. Only girl to sign to play Division 1 golf from Canton so good job Kylie.

The 2017 team is the only one to win in the same season the conference, region and state with 2005 doing the conference and region titles but not state which is still pretty darn good but watching the girls win state was so great because they were the 1st ever State Championship in school history so that makes it extra special

and I know the girls were very excited and I know the parents were real excited. We have and still have some good golfers on the C-Hawks team and unfortunately they didn’t get a chance to show the state what they could accomplish and I know they were going to have a great season. Coach Jeff Keyman knows how to get the girls to want to play good and he has put together a very good program so if you have a daughter who might want to play golf in school get them out on the course and play, play, play lots of golf.

I did see some things it wanted to point out and the fi rst is Jennifer Bogue was the fi rst girl in school history to qualify for state in two straight season when she did in 1986-87. Another thing I thought was interesting was in 1999 we had a pair of sisters qualify and they were the only ones when Chelsea and Teresa Zomer represented the Hawks at state. Chelsea did qualify for 5 state and she was the fi rst with that many tournaments from 1998-2002. After Chelsea it was turned over to Kelsey Larsgaard when she took it one step further by qualifying for 6 state tournaments and that is all you can and she was joined on that list by Kennedy Fossum who also did and Kennedy also was part of the state championship team of 2017. To qualify for 5 state meets is great too and we have had 4 and joining Zomer was Marie Huber, Kylie Gaughenbaugh along with her individual state championship in 2011 and Lindsey Sorlie. Read the list in the sports page because the girls earned being recognized all the way down to the ones with one state tournament. I saw that there Is a lot of pressure on the girls at state and man is there a lot of pressure on the parents and I think especially on the dads because some goober came up with idea that you could not talk to your daughter while she was golfi ng. Yes that did kill me but I did pretty good but when we got together afterwards we talked about the round. It was a lot of fun watching the girls when Emily played and she qualifi ed for 4 state tourneys so had one out west in Hot Springs but the other 3 in Madison, Dell Rapids and Hartford so I enjoyed that but she didn’t. Great job girls and sorry about the way this season ended before it even got started.

Sportstalk The 2020 Canton girls golf season was cancelled and with high expectations ahead this season the C-Hawk

say goodbye to Seniors Madison Fossum, Kelsey Jansen and Kaitlyn Wiersma and with each having state tournament experience they were counting on a great year and with Olivia Sorlie joining them they were one of the favorites at state. Here is the girls golf records:

Tennessee author Ruta Sepetys

May is Mental Health Awareness Month and every year the goal is to fi ght the stigma, provide support, educate the public and advocate for policies that support people with mental illness. Mental Health Awareness Month has been observed in May in the United States since 1949, reaching millions of people through the media, local events and screenings. According to Mental Health of America (https://www.mhanational.org/mental-health-month), while 1 in 5 people will experience a mental illness during their lifetime, everyone faces challenges in life that can impact their mental health. Mental Health Awareness Week is May 18th through May 24th.

Mental health is everyone’s business because we all have times when we feel down, stressed or frightened. Most of the time those feelings pass. But sometimes they develop into a more serious problem and that could happen to anyone. Everyone is different. You may bounce back from a setback while someone else may feel weighted down by it for a long time. Also, numerous suicides and suicide attempts have been attributed to undiagnosed and/or under treated mental illness.

By Rachel CruzeThese are unprecedented

times, you guys. There’s sad news everywhere you look, so I want to give you some hope today. Let’s talk about one thing that can help your specifi c situation right now, no matter where you’re at with your fi nances—an emergency fund.Emergency funds are made

for such a time as this. If you have one, you’re probably thanking your past self for the peace of mind you have because of that pile of cash. As you navigate a loss of hours, income, or even your job, your emergency fund has your back.I’ve counseled people

who were able to overcome impossible odds because of their emergency fund. It’s not just about the money sitting in the bank, it’s about the power an emergency fund gives you in a crisis. It enables you to act—or at least react—without going into a panic or falling into debt. When you have cash saved and the unexpected happens, you have the power to focus on what’s really important, instead of focusing on money.If you don’t have an

emergency fund, now’s the time to start building one. I want you to stash as much cash as you can. If you’ve recently experienced an income decrease or lost your job entirely, you’ll need to take a job—any job—to get your income back up. Around here we call it “gazelle intensity.” To make money fast, you need to have the motivation of a gazelle running from a cheetah!Now, if you’ve lost your

income and you already have an emergency fund, that’s what it’s there for. But before you touch it, drop your expenses down to cover the Four Walls fi rst. The Four Walls are your food, utilities, shelter, and transportation. This is just until we’re all back to normal, and your income is back up to what it was. You’re in conserve mode, so focus on needs—not wants—right now.

If you still have to pull from your emergency fund, treat it like income. Whatever amountyou need to move over from savings, enter that onto theincome line of your budget.Then, give every dollar a job to do. You’re running a leanerbudget than usual right now, and that means there’s no room for date nights or dog costumes.Remember, your emergency

fund is a safety net between you and life. If you need touse it, don’t feel guilty. Andif you don’t have one, starttaking steps toward buildingone today.I still want you to keep

track of your budget duringthis time, too. Even if you don’t have an income, budget whatever money you have.If you don’t tell your moneywhere to go, you’ll wonder where it went. EveryDollar isa free budgeting app I love. It’ll help you stay on trackduring these uncertain times!
