Everybody in Epworth Has a Story

Scott and Jen Hodgson and Family by Dianne McDermott

Its 830 PM and everything in the Scott

and Jen Hodgsons home is as quiet as the

proverbial mouse Rather amazing when you

learn this young couple has five children

Oliviamdash8 Grantmdash7 twins Riley and

Keatonmdash4 and Evanmdash1 along with two

dogs and two rabbits Some people around

the area may recognize this Epworth family

whose picture was used by American Trust and Savings bank on bulletin boards TV and TH

ads and bank fliers A claim to fame that Scott says he gets ribbed about a lot

Scott was born in Monroe Wisconsin but moved to Epworth when he was around

seven He attended college at the University of Iowa and University of Wisconsin Jen was

born and raised in Madison Wisconsin then attended cosmetology schools in Minnesota

and Iowa Their paths crossed when they both found jobs at Menards in Madison Today

Scott works at Alta Genetics and Jen works in patient services at Medical Associates Health

Plans in Dubuque

The move to Epworth was generated when both decided having extended family close

by could be helpful when starting a family A good decision as the pregnancies started

numbering up and each became a little more high risk All of Scott and Jens children were

born by cesarean delivery Olivia and Grant were born fifteen months apart and a stillborn

girl Ava was born twenty months later After several miscarriages Scott was excited

and Jen was shocked to learn they were expecting twin boys Thirty-six weeks into her

pregnancy Riley weighing 6 lb 11 oz and Keaton weighing 7 lb 4 oz came into the world

a minute apart on the day before Thanksgiving With four children under the age of four

Scott and Jen should write a book on how three months later they somehow managed to

have all of their children sleeping through the night The good night ritual is a simple ldquoGood

night Dont let the bed bugs biterdquo rhyme and ldquoSee you late alligatorrdquo followed by ldquoAfter

while crocodilerdquo So easy right

Enter Evan born on February 29 2016 (a leap year baby by choice) and weighing in at a

hefty 10 lb 6 oz Three days into his life the doctors discovered Evan had a heart murmur

caused by atrial and ventricular septal defects The doctors were hopeful the holes would

close on their own but one week later in spite of just having been to the doctor that

morning Jen followed her motherly instincts that something was wrong with her newborn

A trip back to Finley resulted in Evan being hooked up to a ventilator and IVs and being

airlifted to Iowa City There an EKG showed Evan had a narrowing of the aorta that was

causing breathing problems and restricted blood flow to his lower extremities After several days of trying to

unsuccessfully trying to stabilize him it was determined surgery would be necessary After seventeen days in the

hospital Evan was sent home with a feeding tube which was to be his source of food for the next two months The tube

had to be replaced on a regular basis a stressful process for both Scott and Jen They eventually both caught on to it

but it was goodbye to sleeping through the night as Evan needed to be fed every several hours Today except for a

paralyzed vocal chord and some scar tissue which may need to be removed Evan is a happy normal little boy who

loves keeping up to his siblings

This is not an easy feat as his sister and older brothers are respectively involved in 4H gymnastics and softball and

football wrestling soccer and baseball Scott coaches several of his children teams and is a member of the Epworth

Athletic Club while Jen is active with the Epworth Elementary Parent-Teacher Association Both are active in the

March for Babies in memory of Ava

organizations Have you heard of General Mills ldquoBoxtops for Educationrdquo Campbells

ldquoLabels for Educationrdquo Kwik Stars ldquoMilk Moolardquo or Prairie Farms ldquoOur Caps Your

Our local schools use these programs as a way to collect otherwise thrown away items to

fund the purchase of sports equipment office supplies technology and library supplies

Taking part in these programs can greatly reduce expenses to the school for necessary

items used every day in the school classroom and gymnasiumplayground

The best part of these programs is that you are already purchasing the products that have these labels andor

caps all you need to do is remove them from the item you have purchased and turn them in Itrsquos an easy

program for the schools that involves the entire community

Seton Catholic School utilizes all of these programs Items can be turned in to either one of the schools in

Farley or Peosta or sent to school with a student

WD Epworth Elementary utilizes only the General Mills ldquoBoxtops for Educationrdquo Labels collected can be

sent to school with a student or dropped off in the school office between 730 AMmdash400 PM and given to

Kellie in the front office

Thanks for participating and caring Call the school if you have questions

Welcome Fall

Must be fall when Dorrance McDermott starts shucking the husks from the walnuts

Did you know if you dump the shucked walnuts into a bucket of water and they

float they are not good to eat Crack open only the ones that sink to the bottom

Dorrance was having 5050 luck with those he had picked Two pounds of unshelled

black walnuts found in the wild will yield about a cupful of nut meats

Slip n Slide Fun Magnified

A new activity offered during Town and Country days was a big hit with

children and adults alike Using the Slip n Slide concept a cover for a

silage bunker (30 ft x 150 ft) was donated by an anonymous giver It was

positioned down the hill from the old Epworth School location toward the

south side of the tennis court A hose was hooked to a water hydrant and

connected to a frac12 inch 10 foot piece of PVC pipe drilled with 18 inches

holes every 8 inches This acted as a sprinkler on the silage bunker sack A

little No More Tears shampoo was spread at the top of the sack the water

was turned on and the fun began lasting into the evening hours

This was a great family activity available at no cost that will definitely be repeated at next years Town and

Country Days Remember to bring your bathing suits and be ready to take home some very exhausted but

content children Thanks to those who donated and set up this great addition to our Town and Country Days

list of activities

Other Town and Country Activities Judging by the line waiting for a balloon

Epworth City Game Courts Are

Being Re-constructed

The Epworth City Council has agreed to resurface the old game

courts across from Tower Park Kluesner Construction from

Farley stripped the old surface and has repaved the surface with 3

inches of asphalt Heiar Fencing will install new fencing New

standards will be added for two tennis courts an additional

stand-alone pickleball court and two basketball hoops Additional

lines will be added inside the two tennis courts so pickleball can

also be played within these spaces

The Western Dubuque girls and boys tennis teams will use the courts for JV practice since there are ninety

players on the two teams

The City has allocated funds along with grant funding for the new courts but does not have sufficient funds

to color-coat the tennis courts The Brenda and Tom Wickham family has committed to raise $10000 via

fund-raising and contributions The Wickham family is contributing the initial $3000 but an additional $7000

needs to be raised for the acrylic texture coating rather than leaving the courts black like a parking lot

If you can help send your contribution to Epworth Tennis Courts Epworth City Hall PO Box 266

Dubuque County Library District ndash Epworth Branch

Having paddled a canoe on a lake in Northern Minnesota I was intrigued to discover William Kent Kruegerrsquos Cork

OrsquoConnor Mystery Seriesmdashfifteen titles so far and nearly all of these take place in or around the Boundary Waters The

lead character in all of the titles OrsquoConnor is half Native American and has spent his life in small town law enforcement

What makes this series different from all of the other crime-solving stories out there is the Native American influence on

OrsquoConnor One of his best friends is an ageless Ojibwe Mide or healer who often gives advice in the form of brief

puzzling statements or predictions that prove to be useful later in the story usually when OrsquoConnor finds himself in a

tough spot

Krugerrsquos latest book Sulfur Springs is the first time the plot is set someplace other than Minnesota it takes Cork and

his new Ojibwe wife Rainy to Arizona on a hunt for Rainyrsquos son (from a previous marriage) Peter has found himself

mixed up with a Mexican drug cartel and several other special-interest groups surrounding the small border town while

trying to do what he feels is morally right The back-story of living life near the border and the plight of immigrants

willing to risk everything for a chance to live in the US makes for very relevant and interesting reading

Whether you pick up from the beginning with the first book in the series Iron Lake or just try any of Kruegerrsquos titles I

think yoursquoll enjoy these mysteries with Midwestern roots

New Advertiser

The Epworth Fire Department was recently notified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) that we

were awarded an Assistance to Firefighters Grant that will be used to update our current Self-Contained Breathing

Apparatus (SCBA) This grant is crucial in funding a project that our Board of Directors have been working on for

the past couple years Aside from vehicle purchases this equipment acquisition is the most expensive project we

face The current standard for SCBArsquos service life is fifteen years and we are approaching their end of life next year

The project will replace all of our current model SCBAs and the new models will bring us into compliance with

industry standards The cost of the project is estimated at $103000 with the grant picking up 95 of the costs or up

to $9855300 The costs for fire equipment continue to escalate at an alarming rate A committee of firefighters have

started the process to look at available equipment options and to assess our needs for the future use of the SCBAs

The department has an extensive respiratory protection program in place that includes medical physicals for interior

firefighters individualized face pieces for each member air quality testing of the compressor and flow testing of the

SCBAs to ensure everything is safe and working appropriately The local match will come from the proceeds from

our annual picnic and silent auction so we can complete the project without asking the city or rural board for any

additional tax dollars

The department was also a recipient and the sponsor fire department for a $53000 FEMA regional grant that will be

used to update the Dubuque County Firefighters Association Mobile Breathing Air Compressor Trailer The new

trailer will replace our current response trailer that is almost twenty years old This will be a great improvement

for all of the fire departments in Dubuque County and also bring us into compliance with current standards and

requirements The trailer is housed and operated by the Farley Fire Department

For the past couple months we have had the wonderful opportunity to train in a house as we prepare to burn it down

We would like to thank Margaret Stocks for allowing us to train for a couple months at her farmhouse south of

Epworth Many times we are unable to utilize acquired structures for training due to location condition or other

preventive factors however this residence met all of the requirements We have applied for the burn permit from the

Iowa DNR and hope to have good weather later this fall to complete the burn There is a tremendous amount of work

that is required to ensure a safe burn of an acquired structure however when done correctly it provides an excellent

training opportunity for our members and neighboring departments

As we wrap up October it will soon be time to change your clocks Please remember to change the batteries in your

smoke detectors when you change your clocks back to standard time Also smoke detectors should be tested monthly

with the test button feature on the smoke alarms and it is recommended that the detectors be replaced every ten years

Also it is a good time to change the batteries and check your carbon monoxide detector as well

With winter just around the corner if you have a fire hydrant near your residence please take time to clear the snow

from it and make sure it is visible and usable Valuable time can be lost in the event of a fire if we have to find

and clear the hydrants in order to use them Although no one plans on dialing 9-1-1 it is important to keep your

sidewalks and drives clear from snow and debris so we can access your residencebusiness in an emergency

We hope you and your family have a safe happy and healthy fall and winter We wish you the best and we hope

you are able to enjoy the holiday season with family and friends Please like us on facebook and also check out our

website at wwwepworthiowafireorg


Epworth Fire Department News

by Fire Chief Thomas I Berger


Irsquove recently become a fan of the folk singer Carrie Newcomer She sings beautiful lyrics

that speak to my soul In her song ldquoLean in Toward the Lightrdquo she sings these words

Carry nothing but what you must Lean in toward the Light

Let it go shake off the dust Lean in toward the Light

Today is now tomorrow beckons Lean in toward the Light

Keep practicing resurrection

The shadows of this world will say

ldquoTheres no hope why try anywayrdquo

But every kindness large or slight

Shifts the balance toward the light

I love this image of leaning toward the light These past few months have shown how much darkness is in the

world from white-supremacist rallies to natural disasters to a mass-shooting It seems as though every day brings

a new story of sorrow Yet in the face of such darkness we have an opportunity every day to lean in toward the

light of God

I agree with Carrie ldquoEvery kindness large or slight shifts the balance toward the lightrdquo

As we enter these winter months what will you do to shift the balance toward the light

May God bless you in your leaning
