A WORKSHOP TO JUMPSTART
THE WRITER WITHIN!
Is your creativity gene on hiatus? Do you
love the power and beauty of language, but lack
time or inspiration? Experience strategic writing
prompts that invite you to take intellectual and
creative risks that lead to breakthrough thinking
…and writing! As writer Donald Murray suggested, it takes a destination and a plan to make surprise possible. So, this is your invitation to create,
create, create!
On Saturday, April 25, with Linda Bendorf
(M.A.T., J.D., University of Iowa) as our guest instructor, the Amana Arts Guild will hold a writer’s
workshop, for adults, between 10:00 AM and 2:00
PM at the Art Center, in High Amana. Workshop
fee: $40
During our high energy, focused yet flexible
time together, we’ll plunge into strategies to spark
creativity and to free the “writer within.” And we’ll
have fun all the while, because serious work requires serious play. We’ll write quickly to stay
ahead of the inner critic, and boldly to outsmart
the censor. We’ll dabble in poetry, life stories,
monologue and more. Plan to generate all new
writing, and in good workshop fashion, we’ll share
our pieces as time allows.
Bring a sack lunch, paper or writing notebook
and your favorite pen. To register call Linda at
224-688-9222

N E WS AND NOT E S
Lt. Governor Visits the Amana Colonies
Lieutenant Governor Kim Reynolds and members of her staff were welcomed to the Amana
Colonies Tuesday afternoon as part of the 99
county tour she and Governor Terry Branstad undertake each year.
The Governor was to be here too, however,
as his office reported Tuesday morning to the
media, the Governor was ill and was unable to
make the trip. “He’s very sorry not to be here today,” the Lt. Governor told the group. “He hates,
really hates, to miss these kinds of meetings, but
he has a bad chest cold so just was unable to
come.” The Amana Colonies Convention and
Visitors Bureau facilitated the visit.
Lt. Governor Reynolds, accompanied by David Rettig, executive director of the ACCVB, John
Peterson, Amana Society, Inc. CEO, and Bruce
Trumpold, manager of the Amana Furniture
Shop, was given a tour of the Amana Furniture
Shop. Trumpold said that Lt. Governor Reynolds
was shown, among other things, the new CNC
router and laser etching equipment that is allowing Amana Furniture to offer personalized products to its customers.
“I was very interested to learn that you are
sourcing your own walnut for your products,”
the Lt. Governor told the group. After the furniture shop tour, the Lt. Governor was shown the
Amana Woolen Mill weaving operation by mill
manager Stephanie Van’t Sant and was particularly interested to see examples of the new line
of Amana bed-sized cotton and woolen blankets.
Following the tours, the Lt. Governor had
a round table session at the mill with about 20
members of the ACCVB. Among other topics,
she reported on the progress being made to formulate the Iowa Next program. As Lt. Governor
Reynolds explained, this new initiative takes a
comprehensive approach to state investment
in local and regional quality of life projects by
streamlining public access to state programs
that provide funding to support cultural, natural
resource enhancement and recreational community projects. Legislation is being drafted now for
this program which is expected to provided about
$26 million in grants.
“What I’m hearing from small communities and
smaller counties is that Iowa Next will provide
better access for them to those sources of funding,” Lt. Governor Reynolds told the group. “It’s a
very competitive environment out there for funding so getting more people to the table, making
it more accessible is very important to the Governor.”
David Rettig described some of the new events
planned in the Colonies in 2015 and praised the
Economic Development Authority’s efforts to promote Iowa tourism, “We are encouraged by what
we are seeing from the state and want to lend our
support,” he said.
The Lt. Governor agreed stating that she felt
the State Economic Development Authority was
making a strong effort to promote Iowa as a tourism destination and as a great place to live, noting that it uses various metrics to measure success and that it is using social medium as a way
to reach a younger audience. She encouraged
the ACCVB to use the state’s social media to promote its events.
She added that attracting and retaining an

educated workforce is important to Iowa’s future,
therefore promoting Iowa as a great place to live
is good for all.
The Lt. Governor outlined plans for a program
to allow Iowa college graduates to volunteer for
nonprofit organizations after college in exchange
for tax credits that would help offset student
loans and a program that will encourage Iowa
businesses to hire military veterans. These programs are still in the planning stage and the legislation is being drafted. She encouraged those
attending to keep track of the new programs and
to help promote their passage in the Iowa Statehouse by communicating support to legislators.
The Lt. Governor said that she hoped to return soon to the Colonies, perhaps with Iowa
Economic Development Authority director Debi
Durham, to meet with local business leaders to
discuss topics introduced at the round table.
Damage to Lanterns is Costly and Annoying
“This is really, really obnoxious” said one property owner in Amana upon finding the Amanastyle lantern along the street in front of his shop
broken.
Terry Hershberger, Amana Society Service
Co., agrees, reporting that 12 of the unique fixtures were broken in Amana, along with two privately owned lanterns in East Amana. Another
lantern in Middle Amana was discovered to have
been broken just last weekend. The damage to
the Amana and East Amana fixtures may have
occurred the weekend of Feb 28 - March 2.
As Hershberger reported, it looks as if someone had taken a bat or similar object to the lanterns. The brass fixtures were dented, the glass
broken and many of the lights were destroyed.
Additionally, two mailboxes were taken in the
village of Homestead, however, that theft might
be unrelated to the vandalism of the light fixtures.
Cost to replace the light fixtures is $1,300
each. However, Hershberger hopes that some of
the fixtures might be repaired. At this time, his
initial estimate is that it will cost about $9,000 to
repair or replace the broken fixtures in the public right of way. There is no estimate for repairs
or replacement of the privately owned fixtures in
East Amana.
Anyone with information about the vandalism
or the theft of the mailboxes is urged to contact
the Iowa County Sheriff’s department. Residents
are urged to keep watch for suspicious activity
and report all to the Sheriff.
“When you think about how nice these lanterns
look and the time and trouble it takes to repair
them, not to mention the cost, this is really upsetting! To think someone would be so stupid and
destructive,” the merchant concluded.

Yard and Garden: Prepare and Plant
Onion Cultivars in Spring
BY RICHARD JAURON, GREG WALLACE, ISU Ext.
With spring here, it’s time to think about planting in home gardens. In Iowa, onions are a popular garden product, but they do require some
special conditions and care to get optimal results.
Here are some tips from Iowa State University
Extension and Outreach horticulturists on onion cultivar varieties and the proper way to plant
them. To have additional questions answered,
contact the ISU Hortline at 515-294-3108 or hortline@iastate.edu.
What is a suitable planting site for onions?
Onions perform best in well-drained, slightly
acidic, fertile soils in full sun. The planting site
should receive at least six hours of direct sun
each day. Heavy soils can be improved by incorporating organic matter, such as compost, into
the soil. Onions require higher fertility levels than
most other vegetables. Apply one to two pounds
of an all-purpose garden fertilizer, such as 1010-10, per 100 square feet and till into the soil
prior to planting. Four to five weeks after planting,
sidedress with additional fertilizer. Sprinkle one
pound of an all-purpose garden fertilizer per 100
feet of row. Place the fertilizer in a narrow band
about 2 to 3 inches from the base of the onion
plants.
What are some good onion
cultivars for Iowa?
Suggested onion cultivars for home gardens in
Iowa include ‘Candy’ (yellow-brown, short term
storage), ‘Copra’ (yellow-brown skin, excellent
storage), ‘Red Burgermaster’ (bright red, good
storage), ‘Red Zeppelin’ (deep red, excellent
storage), ‘Stuttgarter’ (light brown skin, excellent
storage), ‘Walla Walla Sweet’ (yellow-brown skin,
short term storage), and ‘White Sweet Spanish’
(white skin, short term shortage).
Which planting method is best
when growing onions?
Onions may be grown from seeds, sets (small
bulbs) and plants. Base your planting method on
cost, availability and ease of planting.
For most home gardeners, growing onions
from seeds is the most difficult planting method
as germination rates are sometimes poor. However, it is the least expensive. Seeds of specific
onion cultivars are readily available.
Growing onions from sets is easy. However,
specific onion cultivars are usually not available.
Onion sets are typically sold as red, white or yellow onions. Since the cultivar is unknown, the
flavor, use and keeping quality of onions grown
from sets vary considerably.
Growing onions from plants is the preferred
planting method for many home gardeners. Onions are easily grown from plants. Additionally,
specific cultivars are available at garden centers.
What is the proper way to
plant onion seeds?
Plant onion seeds as soon as the ground can
be worked in spring (late March or early April in
southern Iowa, early to mid-April in central Iowa
and mid to late April in northern portions of the
state). Plant seeds in rows 12 to 15 inches apart.
Cover the seeds with one-half to three-quarters
inch of soil. When the seedlings are 2 to 4 inches
tall, thin the planting. For large, dry onions, plants
should be spaced 2 to 3 inches apart after thinning. A full season of growth is needed for mature
onions.
What is the proper way to plant onion sets?
Before planting sets, separate the bulbs into
two size groups – those smaller than a nickel

in diameter and those larger than a nickel. The
larger sets often bolt (produce a flower stalk) and
don’t produce good-sized bulbs. Use the larger
sets for green onions. The smaller sets can be
allowed to develop into mature onions.
Plant sets from early April to early May. Sets
should be planted at a depth of 1 to 1½ inches in
rows 12 to 15 inches apart. For dry onions, plant
the sets 2 to 3 inches apart. Sets grown for green
onions can be planted closer together.
What is the proper way to plant
onion plants?
Plant onion plants from early April to early May.
Place plants 1 to 1½ inches deep in rows 12 to
15 inches apart. To produce large, dry onions,
space plants 2 to 3 inches apart.
