Side Trips<br />
It was an afternoon of false starts and<br />
frustration.<br />
The high water all over the Iowa Great<br />
Lakes meant we’d been walking through<br />
ankle-deep water over<br />
our dock for nearly<br />
a week in order to<br />
get to and from our<br />
boat. Each day the<br />
deck boards got a<br />
little more slippery<br />
with accumulated lake<br />
vegetation wrapped<br />
around the posts. You<br />
didn’t want to look<br />
at the water you were<br />
walking through, but<br />
for safety’s sake, you<br />
had to.<br />
Maneuvering along the dock was inconvenient,<br />
but not impossible. Our boat was<br />
still able to fit beneath our hoist canopy as<br />
well as under the bridges between East and<br />
West Lakes.<br />
We kept a close eye on the clearance<br />
above our tow bar. My best guess is that<br />
at the highest point we were within three<br />
inches of not being able to pass through.<br />
Despite the obstacles, each day of the extended<br />
Fourth of July holiday weekend we<br />
packed our towels, sunscreen, snacks and<br />
beverages and headed out.<br />
Until Sunday. That afternoon we followed<br />
all our usual preparation steps, got<br />
everyone onboard, and discovered the hoist<br />
wouldn’t lower into the water.<br />
My husband called our lift dealer, who<br />
graciously agreed to meet us at his shop in<br />
10 minutes for a replacement part. That was<br />
the good news — the bad news was that<br />
after my husband installed the new part, it<br />
didn’t work any better than the old one.<br />
Fortunately, there was still a wave runner<br />
Iowa to Information keep the girls entertained. Even under a<br />

Prins Insurance has been in business since 1936. The history<br />
begins from a one room office to our modern and expansive<br />
facility in Sanborn and Sheldon. Our present day Prins Insurance<br />
is an independent insurance agency. Our mission: to provide a<br />
consistent and stable market with competitive insurance products<br />
to meet the needs of our clients. This is accomplished by partnering<br />
with numerous regional and national insurance carriers. Current<br />
ownership of the agency includes Dave Van Essen, Jim Jansen, Bruce<br />
Mosier, and Amber Bosma. Through the years there has been an<br />
addition of sales people and office personnel with 13 employees now<br />
employed in two locations. This growth has led to specialization and<br />
departmentalization with Commercial Trucking, Personal, Farm/<br />
Crop and Commercial Insurance Lines as well as Risk Management<br />
Services. We have also developed and administer a program for the<br />
state Land Improvement Contractors Association in 15 states. We<br />
actively write business in Iowa and the surrounding states, but our<br />
niche programs have allowed us the opportunity in 20+ U.S. states,<br />
of which we are licensed. We have a broad reaching business in this<br />
sense, but also appreciate and enjoy our involvement in the local<br />
communities here in northwest Iowa. We have a lot to be proud of<br />
and are glad to call O’Brien County our home.<br />
Our business is to serve you with three generations<br />
and to understand your complete<br />
insurance & real estate needs<br />

exhibit area. PHOTOS BY RANDY PAULSON<br />
Science student and artist captures local nature in her paintings<br />
She lives two states and over 700 miles away,<br />
but Colorado native Hannah Haberecht<br />
has original artwork on display here in<br />
Okoboji at the Dickinson County Nature Center<br />
from now through September.<br />
The 21-year-old biomedical science major at<br />
Colorado State University combined her love of<br />
science, nature and art by painting 17 pictures of<br />
animals, plants and insects that are native to the<br />
Okoboji area.<br />
“Those all date back to last year,” she said of<br />
the acrylic paintings, which went on display July<br />
1 in the eARTh exhibit of the nature center.<br />
She explained the first paintings were of fish<br />
based on a recommendation from her brother,<br />
who is an avid fisherman.<br />
“And I thought that was a really good idea,”<br />
Haberecht said. “I think it’s fascinating to see<br />
them out of water.”<br />
Her parents are designers by trade and<br />
therefore encouraged her to draw and become<br />
interested in art. Meanwhile, she described her<br />
passion for science as a natural part of who she<br />
is.<br />
“I totally love science, since I was little,” she<br />
said.<br />
She has a particular interest in taxonomy,<br />
which is the science of classifying organisms<br />
in the natural world. Therefore, Haberecht not<br />
only strives to make her pictures visually pleasing<br />
but also scientifically accurate by capturing<br />
the details of what makes each individual species<br />
unique.<br />
“You are trying to encapsulate all the small details<br />
that make that thing its individual name,”<br />
she explained.<br />
In two 24 inch by 12 inch paintings, she intricately<br />
details a northern pike and a longnose<br />
gar. Her other fish paintings include a black<br />
crappie and a pumpkinseed. Also on display are<br />
paintings of various butterflies, such as a monarch<br />
and an eastern tiger swallowtail, and plants<br />
such as a New England aster, a prairie rose and<br />
poppies.<br />
Her exhibit also features two landscapes: one<br />
which shows green, rolling hills and another<br />
showing a field of rudbeckia, or black-eyedsusans<br />
sunflowers.<br />
In the bottom-left corner of some of her paintings,<br />
she writes the scientific name of the organism<br />
and its common name in the bottom-right<br />
corner; others only include the scientific name<br />
and have the common name printed on an accompanying<br />
card next to the frame.<br />
Haberecht will return to Okoboji next month<br />
to teach a class on insect identification at 10<br />
a.m. Saturday, Aug. 11, at the Dickinson County<br />
Nature Center. The class will last about an hour<br />
and will be open to all ages, free of charge.<br />
“It’s a brief class on how to identify the insect<br />
orders, how to tell this kind of bug from this<br />
kind of bug,” she said.<br />
There will also be coloring pages for children<br />
who attend, as well as pinned samples of insects<br />
for them to look at up close.<br />
When people see her artwork, she hopes they<br />
see not only its scientific value but also how it<br />
captures the beauty of nature—and especially<br />
that of Okoboji nature.<br />
“Nature’s amazing, and I think it’s one of<br />
those fundamental roots for art in the world,”<br />
she said.<br />
Many of her paintings on display are also<br />
for sale, with prices ranging from $25 for the<br />
smaller paintings to $135 for the larger ones.<br />
Since she spent several family vacations in<br />
Okoboji while growing up, Haberecht said this<br />
part of N’West Iowa is special to her. And now,<br />
she said to have her original artwork on display<br />
here and available for sale is incredibly meaningful<br />
for her.<br />
“To say I’ve ‘vacationed’ here is an understatement,”<br />
she said. “I’ve been here every year of<br />
my life. To have paintings that might be hung in<br />
someone’s home—yeah, it means a lot.” F<br />

Empty Dresses<br />
New exhibit builds narratives from<br />
found garments<br />
Inspiration comes in many forms.<br />
For a new series on display at<br />
the Pearson Lakes Art Center, the<br />
subject matter could be as simple as<br />
dresses.<br />
But that would be an understatement,<br />
as the artwork being shown by<br />
Paula Streeter is much more than a<br />
representation of an article of clothing.<br />
The “Empty Dresses” exhibit will be<br />
up through August 11 in the Goodenow<br />
Gallery on the lower level of the<br />
art center.<br />
While the pieces represent work<br />
done largely in the past two years, the<br />
inspiration for the series goes back<br />
much further.<br />
In her artist statement Streeter<br />
writes that the concept “was conceived<br />
half a lifetime ago” at an estate<br />
auction.<br />
“Among the many hand crafted<br />
items from the latter half of the 19th<br />
century were two intricately and nearly<br />
identically embroidered, grayed<br />
with age, christening gowns that decades<br />
earlier were wrapped in brown<br />
paper and bound in string,” Streeter<br />
said.<br />
They became the initial basis for<br />
one of the four themes that make up<br />
“Empty Dresses.”<br />
“Childhood Lost” illustrates children’s<br />
dresses and experiences. “Handled”<br />
depicts a hand engaged with a<br />
dress. “Miss Placed” has drawings of<br />
dresses on various media placed on<br />
top of found images. “Historic Media”<br />
explores women in history as represented<br />
by their dress.<br />
Artwork in the “Historic Media”<br />
theme on display include a representation<br />
of Abbie Gardner as well as a<br />
native Sioux mother and daughter.<br />
Each of the themes make use of different<br />
materials and techniques which<br />
comes as a direct result of the art<br />
classes Streeter teaches at Iowa State<br />
University in Ames.<br />
“When I assign a project to students<br />
This Weekend!<br />
From affixing a drawing to old gift<br />
wrap paper, to using pigmented<br />
beeswax, Paula Streeter applies<br />
all kinds of media and technique<br />
for her artwork in “Empty Dresses.”<br />
PHOTOS BY RYLAN HOWE<br />
I take one on too,” Streeter said.<br />
“When I’m teaching drawing part of<br />
it is engaging a hand with an object,<br />
so I just did the same assignment as<br />
them.”<br />
For the “Historic Media” pieces<br />
Streeter wanted to create something<br />
pretty holistically from start to finish<br />
by hand.<br />
“Those are all done with handmade<br />
media - one of them I dug<br />
through a dumpster to find big pieces<br />
of paper. I like working pretty much<br />

from scratch,” Streeter said.<br />
Those pieces are done to size and<br />
also use real dresses as inspiration.<br />
The collars on the Sioux dresses<br />
were done with traditional native pigments<br />
and egg yolk with the rest of the<br />
piece done in walnut ink.<br />
“I did two people together on that<br />
one. I consider all of these portraits<br />
and in Native American culture women<br />
worked together on almost every<br />
facet of daily life. That’s a mother<br />
and daughter carrying on tradition,”<br />
Streeter said.<br />
Found objects are a big part of<br />
the work. The “Miss Placed” pieces<br />
include old found hotel prints that<br />
Streeter then would then draw over<br />
top. One piece is actually old gift wrap<br />
paper to which Streeter affixed one of<br />
the dress drawings. Even the frames<br />
themselves are found, not bought.<br />
Graphite, colored pencil, egg tempura,<br />
even pigmented beeswax. Streeter<br />
employed all manner of technique<br />
to produce the works of art in “Empty<br />
Dresses.”<br />
And each one tells a story.<br />
“Some of them are shallow narratives<br />
and some have more to them.<br />
The more I work on them the more<br />
the narratives build,” Streeter said. “I<br />
always think about how we dismiss<br />
what were such huge narratives. With<br />
still life in the past every flower had a<br />
significant meaning - the bugs, the interactions<br />
of flowers - with christening<br />
gowns if they put certain flowers on<br />
it that meant something in the 1890s<br />
which I find fascinating.”<br />
Visitors will be fascinated as well as<br />
they take in the artwork and stories<br />
behind them in “Empty Dresses.” F<br />

Farce provides night of laughter<br />
Leave the kids at home, this is adult style humor taking the stage<br />
Okoboji Summer Theatre audiences<br />
have always loved a good<br />
laugh. The traditional British<br />
farce offering on the 2018 schedule<br />
“Not Now, Darling” delivers everything<br />
those audience members love.<br />
Scantily dressed women, deceitful<br />
husbands and wives, freely flowing<br />
alcohol and slamming doors fill the<br />
stage from beginning to end. Add in<br />
cleverly written dialogue, many plays<br />
on words, physical comedy and two<br />
great lead actors and you have a winning<br />
combination.<br />
Listen closely and you’ll catch the<br />
humor between prey and pray, references<br />
to being dirty and speaking of<br />
breasts during a conversation about<br />
birds. Authors Ray Cooney and John<br />
Chapman craft an elaborate web of<br />
confusion and deceit.<br />
Director Frederick J. Rubeck understands<br />
just what it takes to make a successful<br />
farce and shares that knowledge<br />
with his hard-working cast.<br />
Leading the pack are OST veterans<br />
and professional actors Courtney<br />
Crouse and Kyle Groff. Crouse has<br />
proven himself many times in comedic<br />
roles and this one is every bit as<br />
good as any of his previous appearances.<br />
His sense of timing is always just<br />
right, pausing to think of his next<br />
explanation, or reluctantly allowing<br />
himself to get pulled into some<br />
scheme out of a sense of loyalty. He<br />
makes the ridiculous seem plausible.<br />
Everything about Crouse is perfect<br />
for the role. He is the right amount<br />
of nervous at the beginning but<br />
progresses into a veteran schemer by<br />
story’s end. He is hilarious in demonstrating<br />
women’s clothing fluttering<br />
to the ground, getting wrapped up in<br />
a phone cord, retreating to the corner<br />
like a scolded child and helping an<br />
intoxicated secretary shimmy into an<br />
ill-fitting dress. The first time he tosses<br />
clothing over the balcony railing<br />
seems absurd, but soon it seems the<br />
only reasonable solution. The audience<br />
seems to know by the end of the<br />
show that the small suitcase is going<br />
over the railing too.<br />
Groff is the perfect complement to<br />
Crouse. They mimic each other’s actions<br />
and mannerisms. They scheme<br />
together and respond perfectly to<br />
each other. Groff begins the play by<br />
explaining a few things to the audience<br />
but effortlessly switches back<br />
and forth between communicating<br />
with the audience and becoming his<br />
character. His first words to the audience<br />
prove prophetic of the story - 98<br />
percent of men are unfaithful and the<br />
other 2 percent are liars.<br />
In this play though, the female characters<br />
are equally unfaithful.<br />
A host of Stephens College students<br />
fill the female roles in the play. Mamie<br />
Meenehan, Devin Keating, Erika Wilson,<br />
Hannah Sutton, Hope Peña and<br />
Lili Javorka benefit from working with<br />
professionals like Crouse and Groff.<br />
It would be hard to not put together<br />
your best efforts when working with<br />
such quality actors.<br />
Keating, Peña and Sutton tackle the<br />
biggest roles. Javorka fills the part of<br />
Groff’s wife. All have moments where<br />
they need to be seductive or coy. Sutton<br />
rarely is fully clothed, though she<br />
is wrapped in a fur coat and being<br />
shoved in and out of the storage closet<br />
for most of the show. She even appears<br />
on stage wearing just two little<br />
tea towels. Oh my.<br />
Aleksander Krapivkin and TJ Vinsavich<br />
complete the cast. Vinsavich<br />
actually fills two completely different<br />
parts, showcasing his diverse talents.<br />
Scenic design was created by Brandon<br />
PT Davis. Lighting was handled<br />
by Savannah Bell, sound by Michael<br />
Burke and costumes by Ashley Harrison.<br />
Harrison’s work includes a<br />
Union Jack flag attached to one lady’s<br />
undergarments.<br />
On opening night a few lines<br />
seemed a little squeaky and pinched.<br />
Some technical issues messed with<br />
the sound effects, but the perfection<br />
of Crouse and Groff together makes<br />
up for anything else that might not be<br />
just right. F<br />

38th Annual Boat Rendezvous<br />
Boat owners show off antique, classic boats at Arnolds Park<br />
Boat owners and enthusiasts are<br />
gearing up for the annual Iowa<br />
Great Lakes Antique and Classic<br />
Boat Show and Rendezvous, coming<br />
ashore next Saturday at the Arnolds<br />
Park docks.<br />
“This will be our 38th annual rendezvous,”<br />
said Alex Kent, the head of<br />
the boat show.<br />
The main exhibit will run from 10<br />
a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, however<br />
Kent said boats will start arriving at<br />
the docks earlier that morning. He estimated<br />
that roughly 40-45 boats will<br />
be on display this year, and that the<br />
show will attract upwards of 10,000<br />
spectators throughout the event.<br />
The show is put on by the Jerry<br />
Dyhrkopp Iowa Great Lakes Chapter<br />
of the Antique and Classic Boats Society.<br />
The event is open to the public<br />
to attend, but costs $40 for chapter<br />
members to register their boats. For<br />
non-members, the cost is $50 to<br />
register, with same day registration allowed.<br />
Many of the boats belong to local<br />
residents, although Kent said the<br />
show attracts people from all over the<br />
country who enjoy making a vacation<br />
out of the event. He mentioned there’s<br />
a Glastron boat enthusiast who travels<br />
all the way from Florida to attend the<br />
rendezvous.<br />
“This year’s show itself, we are trying<br />
to get more boats from out of<br />

town and get some involvement from<br />
other chapters,” Kent said, adding<br />
that the Minnesota-based Bob Speltz<br />
Land-0-Lakes Chapter of the Antique<br />
and Classic Boat Society will attend.<br />
The part of the show he said people<br />
most enjoy is being able to learn<br />
about the variety of boats on display.<br />
“We definitely encourage the public<br />
to come out and ask questions,” Kent<br />
said, adding, “It’s one of the reasons I<br />
love it.”<br />
Boat owners will explain their personal<br />
connection to a particular boat,<br />
whether it’s a family heirloom or just<br />
a boat that holds a lot of memories.<br />
The show is also an opportunity for<br />
younger generations to learn about<br />
boats and develop an interest in the<br />
activity.<br />
After the exhibit there will be a<br />
short presentation.to recognize boat<br />
owners and event organizers.<br />
The famous “Cruise between the<br />
Lakes” will follow the presentation.<br />
Spectators can see the boats in action<br />
as they cruise from West to East Okoboji<br />
Lake.<br />
Kent said the Department of Natural<br />
Resources helps coordinate the<br />
cruise, and a fire and rescue boat normally<br />
leads the parade of boats.<br />
If anyone is interested in becoming<br />
a member, Kent said they can contact<br />
current chapter members at www.<br />

It’s been more than<br />
a century since the<br />
original pioneers made<br />
their way across the country.<br />
Those who currently<br />
call Milford, IA home will<br />
be celebrating their heritage<br />
and their community<br />
next weekend with the<br />
50th Annual Milford Pioneer<br />
Days.<br />
The summer celebration<br />
hits the half-century<br />
mark with three jampacked<br />
days of events<br />
and activities Friday, July<br />
27-Saturday, July 29 all<br />
across the Dickinson County community.<br />
Florence Park is a hub of sorts throughout<br />
the weekend. Such popular kids activities<br />
as the inflatables, face painting, kid’s<br />
carnival, dunk tank, and story time all take<br />
place in the park.<br />
It also plays host to the 2nd Annual<br />
Adults Bags Tournament, and 5th Annual<br />
Pioneer Pitmasters BBQ Competition.<br />
The bbq contest has grown exponentially<br />
since its inception.<br />
“It started out with maybe four competitors<br />
the first year and last year we had<br />
15,” said Chris Hinshaw, president of the<br />
Milford Commercial Club. “Two years ago<br />
we started the public tasting and about 100<br />
people showed up. That all of a sudden has<br />
grown to 300-plus people. It’s grown to be<br />
a really big event.”<br />
Hinshaw says the parade is also a huge<br />
draw, and that it’s one of the bigger ones in<br />
northwest Iowa.<br />
On top of these major events are a variety<br />
of other entertainment and activity options.<br />
All-town garage sales take place both<br />
Friday and Saturday. Pizza and pie eating<br />
contests take place in Florence Park. There<br />
is also a Run, Punt, Pass & Kick Contest as<br />
well as a 5K Run/Walk.<br />
Card players can take part in bridge, cribbage,<br />
500, and pinochle tournaments at St.<br />
Joseph Catholic Church.<br />
Sunday morning will see a string of tractors<br />
depart town for the Okoboji FFA Tractor<br />
Ride Around West Lake.<br />
It all adds up to something for everyone<br />
to enjoy throughout the weekend.<br />
“There are a lot of events going on in<br />
the community that make it just get bigger<br />
every year,” Hinshaw said. “We do Pioneer<br />
Days to give thanks to the community for<br />
doing business locally and it’s a great time<br />
to celebrate your town and community, get<br />
together and have a good time.” F<br />

22nd Annual Railroad Days to roll through Sanborn next weekend<br />
At a Glance:<br />
WHAT: 22nd Annual Sanborn Railroad<br />
Days<br />
WHERE: Various locations around<br />
Sanborn<br />
WHEN: Friday-Sunday, July 27–29<br />
COST: Varies<br />
CONTACT: 712-344-0627<br />

Between several athletic games,<br />
live entertainment, a parade and<br />
numerous other events, Sanborn<br />
is going to be a busy place next weekend.<br />
The town of roughly 1,400 will kick<br />
off its 22nd Annual Railroad Days<br />
celebration next Friday, which will last<br />
until Sunday.<br />
The citywide celebration draws<br />
quite a crowd, according to the director<br />
of the Sanborn Chamber of Commerce,<br />
Sally Smith.<br />
“We get a lot of Sanborn people, but<br />
we also get a lot of people from the<br />
surrounding area, too,” she said.<br />
This year’s Railroad Days will feature<br />
a mix of new events and old<br />
favorites.<br />
For example, Smith said a 3-on-3<br />
basketball tournament at the city park<br />
will make its Railroad Days debut,<br />
sponsored by the city’s parks and recreation<br />
board. The teenage division<br />
for ages 16–20 will take place 3 p.m.<br />
Friday, while the adult division for 21<br />
and older will be at 9 a.m. Saturday.<br />
Another new event will be a youth<br />
obstacle course at the city park, sponsored<br />
by the Hartley-Melvin-Sanborn<br />
wrestling team. The course costs $5<br />
for one attempt, $10 for three and $20<br />
for unlimited attempts.<br />
“That kind of seems to be a hot<br />
topic right now,” said Smith about the<br />
obstacle course.<br />
Back again this year will be the<br />
Antique Tractor Ride on Friday morning,<br />
as well as free swimming at the<br />
Sanborn Aquatic Center Friday and<br />
Saturday.<br />
Also back are discounted tours at<br />
Yesterday’s Memories & Vander Haag’s<br />
Truck Museum on Eastern Street. The<br />
cost for entry is only $5.<br />
Smith said the museum tours have<br />
“gotten to be really big here in Sanborn.”<br />
Friday night will close out with a<br />
performance by the Four for Him<br />
quartet in the city park, followed by a<br />
disc jockey night at the Rails bar and<br />
restaurant on Main Street.<br />
Early risers can enjoy a pancake<br />
breakfast starting at 6 a.m. Saturday<br />
at the city park shelter, where a bake<br />
sale will also be taking place. A 5K and<br />
one mile fun run will held later that<br />
morning at Miller Park. The parade<br />
will get going at 10:30 a.m. and will<br />
roll through the central part of town.<br />
A medley of activities aimed at<br />
younger kids will fill up the rest of Saturday<br />
afternoon, culminating with a<br />
public showing of the 2017 hit movie<br />
“Wonder” in the park at dusk.<br />
The night will once again conclude<br />
at Rails with a street dance featuring<br />
live music from Mickey & the Monsters.<br />
Sunday morning will be the second<br />
edition of the Railroad Days community<br />
worship service led by Pastor<br />
Mark Waterstone at the city park.<br />
“Last year was the first time,” Smith<br />
said of the community worship. “It<br />
really was a neat service.”<br />
Before the service, residents can<br />
grab a quick omelet breakfast at the<br />
fire station and then attend the Sanborn<br />
Shine and Show on Main Street<br />
afterward. The popular auto show will<br />
feature a range of cars, pickups and<br />
even motorcycles.<br />
Smith said she was grateful to the<br />
chamber of commerce and the various<br />
Sanborn businesses that sponsor<br />
Railroad Days each year. She said<br />
having the community be able to<br />
celebrate the town of Sanborn all<br />
together is what makes Railroad Days<br />
enjoyable. F<br />

Chapman, to deliver a night of excitement and fun!<br />
