Each year in the fall Frannie Miller, Pesticide training and IPM coordinator, plans trainings and looks forward to seeing applicators from across the state as they attend these commercial recertification training programs. This year will look a lot different in terms of training opportunities. Due to the ever presence of Covid, the Kansas State Pesticide Safety Program will be hosting virtual training opportunities through zoom. This will allow the applicator to obtain pest management credits from the safety of his or her home or office. Some applicators may feel they are technologically challenged, but don’t let that keep you from trying a new way of learning. The team is here to help you every step of the way! 

The Kansas State Pesticide Safety Program is hosting training on the following dates: 

· October 20 – 21 (9:20 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.) (1:20 p.m. -3:30 p.m.) Right-of-Way, Industrial Weed, and Noxious Weed Training (Category 6, 7C, &amp; 9A)

BOOR: Pesticide training programs begin this month

KANSAS CITY, Mo. -&nbsp;The MIAA CEO Council met on Wednesday, September 30 to discuss a number of items in regard to fall sports to be conducted in the spring of 2021 and the start of the 2020-2021 winter sports season.

The MIAA will not develop a formal football schedule or conduct a cross country championship this academic year, and it will not crown a champion in either sport. MIAA football programs will be permitted to set up no more than four joint practices, scrimmages, or games with outside competition or other MIAA members this spring as each member institution deems appropriate for its program. As a result of this action, a few MIAA schools have decided to pursue limited independent schedules in both sports this fall. These independent events are non-conference contests as permitted per NCAA regulations.

The CEO Council was also updated on the Association’s Athletics Administrators Committee (AAC) review of possible formal 2021 spring seasons for volleyball and women’s soccer. At the current time, and based on current health and testing conditions, it is the intent of the MIAA to offer sport seasons this spring for MIAA schools to compete against each other, and possibly non-conference opponents, in the sports of volleyball and women’s soccer.&nbsp; Issues concerning the season structure, team schedules, conference awards and statistics, spring tournaments, and other sport issues will continue to be discussed by each sport’s MIAA Monitoring Group.

With regards to the men’s and women’s basketball season, the group had discussions about the recently released&nbsp;<a href="https://www.ncaa.org/sport-science-institute/core-principles-resocialization-collegiate-basketball">NCAA Sports Science Institute’s Core Principles of Resocialization of Collegiate Basketball.</a>&nbsp;The CEO Council noted concerns about the document’s new testing recommendations and travel considerations for men’s and women’s basketball and it agreed to continue to monitor NCAA, CDC, and local government guidance on testing protocols and resources. At the present time, MIAA schools are planning to begin the college basketball season as scheduled on October 15 with games scheduled to tip-off on November 18 and 19.&nbsp;

The sports of men’s and women’s indoor track and field and wrestling were also discussed and the CEO Council agreed to provide institutional discretion with the start of each sport. The group noted that with no formal MIAA indoor track and field and wrestling schedules, each institution can determine the start date for those sports.

Doris Josephine Winslow, age 73, of Hays, Kansas, passed away Saturday, September 26, 2020, at Hays Medical Center. She was born Nov. 3, 1946, in Antonino, Kansas, to Reinhold and Josephine (Kuhn) Herrman. She married David Winslow on September 26, 1998. He preceded her in death on March 21, 2009.

Love. If one had to boil Doris’s life down to one word, it’s love.&nbsp; She loved her boys.&nbsp; So much.&nbsp; She loved to see them succeed.&nbsp; She loved to see them try and struggle and eventually conquer new things.&nbsp; She loved to see her boys love and support each other.&nbsp; She loved her parents and siblings and nieces and nephews.&nbsp; When she was younger, she loved going to work every day.&nbsp; She was the type to teach by example, and no matter the lesson or task or thing, love was always the underlying element.

Doris had epic battles with mental illness for much of her life.&nbsp; Through courage and her love of her family, her sons, their wives, and her grandchildren, she found the strength to endure and overcome those hurdles.

Doris loved three husbands in her life.&nbsp; Jim and she had three sons: Dan, Rick, and Scott.&nbsp; Marrying Tom gave Doris the opportunity to share her love with stepsons Brad and Curt.&nbsp; Then marrying David gave one more stepson Chris.&nbsp; Doris loved all of her sons and stepsons equally and completely.&nbsp; She always strived to teach them life lessons and most of all, to forgive and to love. &nbsp;

Watching her boys play sports in school brought great joy to Doris, and that joy stayed throughout her life watching the boys cheer on their favorite sports teams.&nbsp; The Royals were on TV at Doris’ house a great many nights!

Doris’s favorite activity was to have friends and family over for dinner.&nbsp; She was an excellent cook and hosted countless parties filled with family, laughter, and double-deck-pinochle in the house at 1300 Eisenhower.&nbsp; The house was big enough for family to stay overnight in the spare bedroom, kids to play endless games of ping-pong downstairs, and just enough space outside to cook on the grill.&nbsp; Those were the best of times for Doris.&nbsp; She adored taking the boys camping at Wilson Lake.&nbsp; Doris greatly enjoyed listening to David play his guitar and recite the poetry he wrote.&nbsp; Doris could not get enough time on the phone with her boys, and it was impossible for her to ever say no to her grandchildren.

There is a rumor that no one has ever witnessed her boys arguing or fighting.&nbsp; Ever.&nbsp; And that’s a testament to the abundance of love Doris taught and felt for those close to her.&nbsp; Her love will endure, but she will be missed.

She is survived by three sons, Dan Kohl and wife Tina of Schoenchen, Kansas, Rick Kohl and wife Kelly of Moundridge, Kansas and Scott Kohl of St. George, Kansas; two brothers, Les Herrman of Hays and Leon Herrman of Colorado Springs; two sisters, Carol Danielson of Great Bend and Linda Mayberry of Great Bend. She also is survived by four grandchildren, Russ, Faith, Trevor and Collin Kohl.

She was preceded in death by her parents; brothers, Elmer, Cyril, Frank, Roy, Donny and J.R. Herrman and a sister, Edna Rohr.

Funeral services will be 10 AM Thursday, October 1, 2020, at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church in Hays. Burial will follow in Our Lady Help of Christians Cemetery in Antonino, Kansas.

Visitation will be Wednesday 6 PM - 8 PM with a combined rosary and vigil at 7 PM all at Brock's-Keithley Funeral Chapel and Crematory 2509 Vine Hays, KS 67601. Thursday visitation will be 9 AM - 9:30 AM at the funeral chapel.
