The 2015 main stage lineup at the Nodaway County Fair has something for everyone, from oldies rock and country classics to the subtle sounds of progressive pop.

Two professional main stage acts have been booked this year, and each will perform two shows.

Appearing Thursday, July 16, at 7:15 and 9:00 p.m. will be the PastMasters, a 1960s and ’70s cover band from Cedar Rapids, Iowa, that plays “100 percent dance music 100 percent of the time.”

The band’s style emphasizes baby boomer dance fads ranging from the

Twist to the Limbo set to pop hits by a diverse group of artists, including Shaun Cassidy, Elvis Presley, Sam & Dave, the Beatles, the Beach Boys, the Archies and the 1910 Fruitgum Com-pany.

Members include Chad Johnson, lead vocals; Bart Carfizzi, keyboards, vo-cals; Layne Goldsberry, bass; Tommy Bruner, guitar/vocals; and Tom Miller, drums/vocals.

On Friday night, beginning at 8 p.m., the stage on the courthouse square will be given over to a dozen Country Showdown contestants from across the region looking to travel the long road to Nashville stardom via the nation’s largest country music talent search..

The fair winner will claim a $500 cash prize and advance to the state fi-nals.

This year’s local Showdown con-testants include Tim Clark, Skidmore; Tammy Downing, Grant City; Aleah Ekoniak, Savannah; Michael Goff, Burlington Junction; Scott Holmes and Nicole Salmond, Maryville; Josh Kol-litz, Grant City; Mariann Landes, Beth-any; the Drew Miller Band, Memphis, Missouri; Codi Nuckolls, Maryville; Rachel Reese, Overland Park, Kansas; April Swaney, Maryville; and Maddie Von Behren, Maryville.

Claiming the headliner’s spotlight at 7:30 and 9:15 p.m. Saturday — the fair’s final night — will be Leland’s

Road, a “progressive crossover” en-semble from St. Louis.

The band’s sound is rooted in the two-part harmonies of guitarist/singer Tyler Elder and vocalist Kristen Hilt-ner, who are backed by a rhythm sec-tion made up of Sean Archer on bass, Andrew Edmonds on drums and Grant Tracey on saxophone, keyboards and guitar.

Founded as a duo by Elder and Hilt-ner, Leland’s Road has a sound that merges elements of both rock and funk.

The group was picked as one of three finalists during an X-Factor com-petition in St. Louis and also took home the Best Young Band trophy after play-ing in the Chesterfield Talent Bash.

Along with the main stage entertain-ment at the Nodaway County Fair, patrons will have several different alternatives for entertainment. On the mainstage, there is the PastMasters, Country Show-down and Leland’s Road.

But, this year, the Fair will have enter-tainment walking around the fair grounds. According to Entertainment Chair Brian McPherson, Igor the Fire Poi Spinner will be walking around the fair Thursday, Fri-

day and Saturday. McPherson said that Igor will be performing with fire after dark and will provide patrons a different kind of entertainment.

On Friday and Saturday, Marcos the Juggler will be showing off his juggling skills throughout the day for the fair pa-trons.

The Nodaway County Fair begins Tues-day and Wednesday with the Nodaway County 4-H/ FFA shows, but the carnival rides and nightly entertainment begins Thursday evening.

Additional entertainment to be walking through the fair

This year’s Nodaway County Pedal Pull kicks off at noon, Saturday, July 19, at the main stage, with registration for the event beginning at 11 a.m. after the parade at the main stage.

Dr. Joe Powell and his wife, Sue Pow-ell, have been selected by the Greater Maryville Chamber of Commerce as this year’s grand marshals for the Nodaway County Fair parade.

The couple, who 50 years ago found-ed the Nodaway Veterinary Clinic near Maryville, is being honored for long service both to the community and to the annual 4-H and FFA youth livestock show held Tuesday through Thursday of fair week.

For many years, Joe Powell has vol-unteered his time as the exhibition’s of-ficial veterinarian, certifying the health of hundreds of rabbits, chickens, pigs, sheep, goats and beef and dairy cattle that represent the hard work and agricul-tural aspirations of young people from across northwest Missouri.

In the show’s early days, Powell said, it didn’t attract as much public interest as it does now. He recalled that the first year he served as vet very few people showed up for the Thursday night sale, so he and Sue ended up buying the animals them-selves.

Getting top dollar for their livestock is unlikely to be a problem for this year’s contestants, since the show routinely at-tracts a host of eager bidders. But that won’t make working the exhibition any easier for Powell and the Nodaway Vet-erinary Clinic staff, which these days in-cludes Dr. Edward Powell, Sue and Joe’s son.

That’s because the state no longer sends a district field vet along with a couple of assistants to help out, as was once the case.

Joe Powell said the extra workload doesn’t really make any difference, and that he is happy to continue offering his services so that tomorrow’s farmers and stock breeders can participate in a show that essentially adheres to the same live-stock health standards in place at the Missouri State Fair in Sedalia.

“I enjoy it,” he said. “It’s something that lets me give back to a lot of the people who come to us all year. And now some of the kids I’m seeing are fourth

generation.”Joe Powell grew up in Fairfax in

Atchison County, and started working part-time for a veterinarian there while still a boy. Sue is a native of nearby Rock Port, and the two don’t seem to remem-ber exactly when they first met.

Both, however, agree that their ro-mance began when Sue was still in high school and Joe was a soon-to-be sopho-more at the University of Missouri-Co-lumbia.

Home for the summer and working at the Sinclair gas station in Fairfax in an era before self-service pumps, Joe was on the job when Sue rolled in for a fill-up.

“She was hitting on me,” Joe teased this week, sitting with Sue in the spa-cious sunroom of the couple’s two-story brick home, which stands on 10 land-scaped acres just west of Maryville.

Soon the two were dating, and in 1961 got married during Joe’s second year in vet school, also at MU. Sue got a job at the university’s veterinary clinic and paid the bills so her new husband could continue his studies.

Though he had originally planned on returning to Fairfax after earning his DVM degree, an anticipated job fell through. So Joe and Sue moved to Bagley, Iowa, where the newly minted animal doctor spent his first year in prac-tice at the Gubser Veterinary Clinic.

Then, in 1965, wanting to live closer to their hometowns, the couple moved to Maryville and started the clinic that still operates today. It was very much a joint effort, with Sue serving as office manager and keeping the books while Joe tended to the health of animals large and small.

Today, Joe said, the clinic’s practice is about equally divided between horses and small animals on one hand and cattle on the other. In addition to Dr. Ed Powell, there are two other DVMs on staff, Dr. Doug Suntrup and Dr. Julianne Simpson, a veterinary intern.

Suntrup’s wife, Samantha, has joined the team as a registered veterinary tech-nician.

Rounding out the staff are Ruth War-ner, longtime receptionist and veteri-

Powells selected as parade grand marshals

Grand marshalsSue Powell and Dr. Joe Powell, who has provided volunteer veterinary services for many years during the annual Nodaway County Fair 4-H and FFA live-stock show, will serve as grand marshals during the Chamber of Commerce-sponsored fair parade Saturday, July 18. This year’s parade is scheduled to begin at 9:30 a.m. and will proceed eastward down College Avenue and Fourth Street between the Northwest Missouri State University campus and downtown Maryville.

nary assistant; Christine Standiford, who shares receptionist duties and serves as bookkeeper; Tiffani Burke, kennel at-tendant; and Aaron Theas, food animal assistant.

Now in the twilight of a long career he obviously loves, Joe Powell said he is still passionate about his profession and

the animals he cares for.“I look forward to it every day,” he

said. “You feel like you’re making a dif-ference.”

And the cumulative impact of striv-ing to make that difference adds up to an impressive legacy.

Earlier in his career, Powell established the Gold Label Program, an initiative aimed at better documenting cattle health that was the first of its kind in the state. He also played key roles in the Northwest Missouri Farm Testing Study for boars and the Northwest Missouri Beef Im-provement Association.

A Nodaway County Agricultural Hall of Fame inductee, Powell receiv- ed the Veterinarian of the Year award from the Missouri Veterinary Medical Association in 1985 and served as MVMA’s secretary for many years. He also belongs to the American Veterinary Medical As-sociation and the American Associa-

tion of Bovine Practitioners.Both Joe and Sue are involved in

numerous community activities, and Sue has long been active in the Maryville Garden Club. In addition to Edward, their children include Janelle Twist, a nurse in Phoe-nix, Arizona, and Patrick Pow-ell, who works for a veterinary pharmaceutical firm in Kansas City. The couple has seven grandchildren.

“We’ve made a lot of friends in Nodaway County,” Sue said of the fair grand marshal honor. “A lot of them have also been our clients.”

“We’re very humbled,” Joe add-ed. “We had no idea. We’re just very much appreciative that people accept- ed us to be their veterinarian.”

Everybody knows the Nodaway County Fair begins when the midway rides start spinning and carnival barkers start calling out from behind their game booths on the Maryville square at 5 p.m. Thursday, July 16. Right?

Well, not exactly.This year’s fair, as ever, actually be-

gins on Tuesday, July 14, when dozens of 4-H and FFA youngsters from Nodaway and other counties across the region be-gin arriving to display their prized live-stock.

Ferris wheels and carousels notwith-standing, for many farm folks the three-day livestock show at the Community Building arena just north of the North-west Missouri Regional Airport is the true heart of fair week — a proud cel-ebration of Nodaway’s agricultural past, present and future.

This year’s exhibitions begin with the poultry show. Check-in is scheduled for 4:30-5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, July 14, with judging to follow at 6 p.m. Rabbit check-in begins at 5:30 p.m., with animals to be shown after the poultry competition.

Livestock judging continues Wednes-day, July 15, with swine, goats and

sheep. Swine check-in runs from 7-8 a.m. followed by the 9 a.m. swine show. Goat check-in runs from 1-2 p.m. with the goat show set to start at 3 p.m.

Sheep round out the day, with check-in available from 4-5 p.m. and judging at 6 p.m.

The final day for livestock is Thurs-day, July 16. Beef and dairy check-in is set for 8-9 a.m., with judging beginning at 10 a.m. Heifers will be followed by

dairy cows and steers.This year’s livestock show supper

starts at 5 p.m. on Thursday and precedes the annual livestock sale at 6 p.m.

Entry fees are $5 per head for beef, dairy, goats, sheep and swine and $2 per head for poultry and rabbits

Contestants must present health certificates at the request of the show veterinarian. SMQA/PQA cards are re-quired.

The Nodaway County Commission and the city of Maryville are making plans to honor U.S. military veterans and active-duty personnel wounded in ac-tion during a ceremony set for 6:45 p.m. Thursday, July 16, on the courthouse square — opening night of the Nodaway County Fair.

North District Commissioner Robert Westfall said the commission has been notified by the Missouri Department of the Military Order of the Purple Heart that Nodaway is to be designated an official Purple Heart County, and that Maryville will become a Pur-

ple Heart City.Westfall said the application for the distinction was

made by the commission in response to a request from the Purple Heart society’s John Dismer, who is expected to accept a resolution from local officials on the fair’s mainstage.

Chartered by Congress in 1958, the Military Or-der of the Purple Heart is composed of military men and women who received the medal after suffering wounds in combat. The group currently claims to have slightly more than 45,000 members.

Regular membership is restricted to living vet-erans. However, the order also offers participation through its Ladies Auxiliary and associate member-

ships available to parents or lineal descendants of ei-ther a living or deceased Purple Heart recipient.

Nodaway will become the 25th Missouri county and Maryville the 81st Missouri city to be named Purple Heart communities. The distinction means both governments will be eligible to display signs and plaques proclaiming the MOPH distinction.

Reserved seating will be provided for Purple Heart recipients and their families attending the ceremony.

The Purple Heart is a United States military deco-ration awarded in the name of the president to those wounded or killed while serving on or after April 5, 1917.

However, the iconic heart-shaped medal — cast in gold and purple and blazoned with the profile of Rev-olutionary War commander George Washington on one side and the words “For Military Merit” on the other — has a history dating to the nation’s original struggle for independence from England.

Washington, later the nation’s first president, es-tablished the honor that became the Purple Heart in 1782. What was then called the Badge of Mili-tary Merit consisted of a simple heart-shaped patch fashioned from purple fabric and bearing the word “Merit.”

According to general orders issued by Washington on August 7 of that year, and retained by the Library of Congress, the honor was intended for soldiers who exhibited, “not only instances of unusual gallantry in battle, but also extraordinary fidelity and essential service in any way.”

Though never abolished, the honor fell into disuse and was not officially revived until the early 1930s, when the first “Purple Heart Medal for Military Mer-it” was bestowed on Gen. Douglas MacArthur, then Army chief of staff.

The general had been exposed to mustard gas 14 years earlier during World War I.

Though MacArthur was one of the most storied commanders in U.S. history, Washington’s original badge is believed to have been perhaps the first in modern times presented to common soldiers.

According to the late Donald N. Moran, a member of the Sons of the American Revolution and author of several articles about the war for independence, the practice in European armies was to restrict the giving of such decorations to officers.

But, as Washington wrote in his general order, “The road to glory in a patriot army and a free coun-try is thus open to all.”

The estimated number of soldiers, sailors and air-men receiving the modern Purple Heart is given here: World War I, 320,518; World War II, 1,076,245; Ko-rean War, 118,650; Vietnam War, 351,794; Persian Gulf War, 607; Afghanistan War, 7,027 (as of June 5, 2010); Iraq War, 35,321 (as of June 5, 2010).

Ceremony to honor Purple Heart recipients

The Purple Heart is awarded to members of the armed forces of the U.S. who are wounded by an instru-ment of war in the hands of the enemy and posthumously to the next of kin in the name of those who are killed in action or die of wounds received in action. It is specifically a combat decoration.

Checker players have a reason to rejoice this year at the Nodaway County Fair. For the first time ever, the Fair will have a checker tournament Saturday afternoon. In a day full of activities, people of all ages can sit down and enjoy a competitive game of check-ers.

“In the past, we had checker tourna-ments and horse shoes,” Fair Board Member Steve Mozier said. “We want- ed to bring them back, but we didn’t have anywhere to do the horse shoes, so we decided to bring the checker tourna-ment back.” The checker tournament will

begin at 2 p.m. Saturday, July 18 in the Nodaway County Administration Center lobby.

The tournament is open to players ages 15 and older, and the winner will receive a cash prize. Players will seek to win two out of three games against successive op-ponents in a single-elimination format.

Anyone interested in participating can sign up any day after the Fair office, locat-ed in the Nodaway County Administra-tion Building, opens July 13 or they can just show up Saturday. The overall winner of the tournament will receive $100.

For more information about the tour-nament or to register, contact Mozier at 660.254.3140. The Fair office’s number is 660.254.3247.

The antique show at the Nodaway County Fair will return for its fourth year. The show will feature small en-gines, farm and gardening tools and early appliances like washing and sew-ing machines and spinning wheels.

Antique Show Director Rob Cain said tractors and other heavy farm implements are prohibited due to space limitations. Anyone interested in having a display should have their display ready by 4 p.m. Saturday, July 18, on the north side of the square

by the Nodaway County Administra-tion Building.

Along with the displays, Cain said there would be activi-ties, including a two-man cross-cut saw contest with a $50 cash prize and a builders contest with a $100 prize. The builders contest includes hammering nails into a piece of wood, cutting a piece of a wood and then screwing some screws into a board. The contest will be timed.

A homemade ice cream social will take place at 5 p.m.

For more information about the an-tique show, call Cain at 660.562.8903.

Even grandmothers — and maybe es-

pecially grandmothers — realize that everyone needs a little romance in their lives.

And a striking example of grandmoth-er-crafted romance will be on display next week at the Nodaway County Fair during the Maryville Krazy Quilters Club exhibition in the basement of the county Administration Center on the corner of

Market and Fourth streets.The grandmother in question is Del-

la Rhoades, a local quilting enthusiast known as the organizing force behind a group at the First United Methodist Church that has been making quilts and other fancy-stitch items for youngsters at the Noyes Home for Children in St. Jo-seph.

While Rhoades, a retired nurse, often uses her skills with a sewing machine and needle-and-thread as a means of serving young people she’s never met, her most

recent creation is all about family.The saga of the one-of-a-kind quilt

Rhoades has entered in this year’s Krazy Quilters show goes back about four years to when her recently married grandson, Ben, asked her to make a comforter out of his wife Sherry’s flowing white wed-ding dress.

“About a year after the wedding, Ben came back to Missouri from Detroit (his home city), and asked if I would make a quilt from the dress,” Rhoades said. “With some hesitation I said yes, and he

left it at my house.“I hung it in its bag in the basement and

started to gather ideas and suggestions. Only there weren’t really any ideas about how to do a project like this.”

So the dress stayed in the basement while Rhoades waited for her silent muse to speak. One big problem was the beads with which the dress was encrusted. Most of Rhoades’ quilts are assembled on back-ing material using traditional squares, but cutting this dress into squares meant un-raveling the beads.

“The dress had a lot of beautiful bead-work that didn’t lend itself to squares,” she said. “When you cut into a row of beads, they come off.”

A year went by, and when Ben asked how the project was going during a re-turn trip to Missouri, Rhoades didn’t have much of an answer.

Finally, she figured the only thing to do was forge ahead and hope for the best.

“I knew I had to get serious,” she said. “I had promised to do the quilt, and I had spent many nights thinking and dream-ing about it. The dress was so pretty, and there was so much of it. That first cut with the scissors was hard.”

In order to create the comforter, Rhoades at last decided she would have to abandon her usual squares and craft a “crazy quilt” from pieces cut any which way in order to keep the beadwork intact.

“It was traumatic when I started cutting those pieces,” she said.

But soon, designing by feel and by eye with no pattern and only long ex-perience to guide her, the quilt began to take shape. And like most good artists, Rhoades didn’t hesitate to take advantage of technology.

When the time came to start assem-bling the large, ornate swatches of fabric, Rhoades bought herself a “birthday pres-ent” — a special embroidery foot for her trusty Janome sewing machine. She also added layers of white satin and ornamen-tal netting to the queen-sized quilt back-ing, which taken together enhanced the richness and luxury of the original dress and train.

Finally, Rhoades got out her needle and thread and applied subtle designs

TONY BROWN/DAILY FORUM

From grandma with loveMaster seamstress Della Rhoades displays a queen-size quilt she created from her granddaughter-in-law’s bead encrusted wedding dress. The quilt, made at the request of Rhoades’ grandson, took about 15 months to complete and will be on display next week during the Nodaway County Fair.

shaped like hearts and flowering circles — delicate work that had to be done the old-fashioned way, one stitch at a time.

As a finishing and very personal touch, Rhoades had a wedding photograph of her grandson and granddaughter-in-law, wearing the gown from which the quilt was made, reproduced onto a rectan-gle of cloth using a color printer. Beneath the photo, she hand-stitched the words, “Benjamin and Sherry Rhoades, October 15, 2011.”

Satin binding all around and rod loops along one edge so that the quilt can be hung from a wall brought the project to an end.

Rhoades said making the quilt literally consumed uncounted hours over about 15 months. But she likes the finished

product, which she believes preserves and transforms the elegance of the original dress.

“You don’t see a lot of things like this,” Rhoades said. “It’s one of a kind.”

She added that creating the quilt — which Ben and Sherry have yet to see — pretty much required every bit of sewing know-how she possessed, skills acquired over a lifetime.

“On a (difficulty) scale of one to 10, it’s definitely a 10,” Rhoades said.

Rhoades’ wedding-dress quilt will be one of dozens on display at the fair this year in the Nodaway County Adminis-tration Center basement. Exhibit hours are 5-10 p.m. Thursday, July 16; 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Friday, July 17; and 11 a.m. to 10 p.m. Saturday, July 18.

Four high-profile Maryville citizens have stepped up to the plate to help Unit-ed Way of Nodaway County raise aware-ness for the 2016 campaign.

On Saturday, July 18, one of those dig-nitaries will have to pucker up.

The United Way, in an effort to raise awareness about their fundraising cam-paign for 2016 — which in turn will contribute funds to 16 organizations — will host “Kiss the Pig” at 7 p.m. on

the main stage at the Nodaway County Fair.

“There’s fun, there’s connection with the Fair and there’s also the communi-ty involvement which really heightens the awareness of what we’re trying to do,” United Way Board Member Charla Wiederholt said.

Up for the honor of kissing the pig, which is being provided by Dil-lon Stiens, are Northwest University Police Chief Clarence Green, Maryville Mayor Renee Riedel, Maryville High School Football Coach Matt

Webb and Maryville Director of Public Safety Keith Wood.

“There was a myriad of people that we asked and these were some of the people who immediately stepped forward to serve the community and the United Way campaign,” Wiederholt said.

Voting will take place beginning Friday at Hy-Vee and run through Friday, July 17. Final vote casting will take place from 5-9 p.m. July 17 at the Fair’s main stage. The candidate that has the most money in their container at the end of the voting process will get to step

on stage Saturday night prior to the head-lining act, Leland’s Road, a progressive rock/funk crossover band from St. Louis.

“We wanted to be a part of the Nod-away County Fair, and so in order to get the community involvement with the voting, we also wanted them to be able to experience it and see it,” Wiederholt said.

Wiederholt said any money raised by the campaign beyond the cost of the or-ganization’s booth at the Fair will go into their funds to help service the 16 organi-zations in 2016.
