Ote Berry qualified for his firstWrangler National Finals Rodeo in1985, the same year the eventmoved to the Thomas & Mack Cen-ter in Las Vegas.

It was an auspicious start for theNFR and for Berry.

The steer wrestler had a roughbeginning, though, and didntplace until the seventh round,when a three-way split of third

place sparked his confidence.Thats when a reputation forclutch performances was born witha storybook finish.

I won the ninth and 10throunds, won the average, and wonthe world that first year out there,Berry said. When it all came to-gether at the end like that, it waspretty special. After that, I alwayshad a lot of confidence when I rodeinto that building.

Berry rode into the Thomas &Mack Center as one of the top 15steer wrestlers in the world 14times. He finished in the top five ofthe world standings 10 times andcollected four world championshipgold buckles on a journey thateventually led to the ProRodeoHall of Fame, where he was in-ducted in 1998.

That journey began in SouthDakota, where Berry was theyoungest of six kids who all com-peted in junior rodeos while grow-ing up.

My dad, Buster, was what youmight call a circuit cowboy now,never getting too far from home,Berry said. He rode broncs whenhe was younger, and mostly steerwrestled later. Like a lot of ranchkids, I idolized the rodeo cowboyswhile I was growing up. I saw guyslike Larry Mahan and Phil Lyne atsome of the rodeos up there. Thatwas before video games and com-puters, so my brothers and sistersand I spent most of our time enter-taining ourselves outside usuallyon the back of a horse.

Berry shifted from bareback rid-ing to bulldogging during his earlyteen years, and, after the familymoved to Gordon, Neb., he won theNational High School Rodeo Asso-ciation steer wrestling title in1980. That landed him a rodeoscholarship to Eastern WyomingCollege in Torrington.

Two years later he joined thePRCA and moved to Checotah,Okla., home of many of the coun-trys best steer wrestlers.

My dad always said youre onlyas good as the competition you goagainst, so I came down here

where the best were, said Berry,who still lives in Checotah.Berry got a new horse, Cadillac,

and the pairing clicked.I placed at Odessa and won

Denver that winter, and that re-ally boosted my confidence, hesaid.

Berry rode Cadillac to his firstworld title, a year after John W.Jones Jr. triumphed in 1984. SteveDuhon won his first championshipin 86 and that trio of steerwrestlers dominated the event for12 years, winning 10 titles threeeach by Jones and Duhon.

I met Ote at the National HighSchool Rodeo Finals in Yakima,Wash., in 1980 and weve beenfriends ever since, Duhon said.The three of us were all goodfriends, and we kind of went aboutthings the same way. You didnthear those two guys talk a lot, andId like to think I was kind of thesame way.

Jones says that when the compe-tition was tight and the pressurewas on, Berry and Duhon wereclutch performers.

Ote was a clutch guy, Jonessaid. Thats what I remember bestabout him. He and Steve were boththat way. They were both bigstrong guys who were really ath-letic, and they thrived in thosepressure situations.

Berry was at his best when thechips were down in Las Vegas; hewon at least a share of the 10thround at the NFR an amazingseven times in his career, includ-ing all four years he was worldchampion. Only Billy Etbauer,with 13, has more 10th roundbuckles. Joe Beaver also holdsseven final-round victories; five ofthose coming in the tie-down rop-ing and two as a team roper.

The most dramatic of Berrysseven final-round triumphs camein 1990. Berry led the world stand-ings as the NFR began but MikeSmith mounted a ferocious chal-lenge. Placing in seven of the firstnine rounds, Smith went from13th place to first.

I figured I had to win first inthe final round and he couldntplace for me to win the title, Berrysaid. I ran through all the differ-ent scenarios I could imagine onthat last steer a hundred timesand then cleared my head. Its notthat I wasnt nervous I dont carewhat people say, there are more

Whatever happened to Ote Berry?nerves in play there but youlearn to control your nerves in-stead of letting them control you.

Berry scored 3.9 seconds, splitthe round with Todd Fox, andSmith didnt place. Berry won thetitle by a mere $148.

I thought I had figured every-thing, but I hadnt thought about asplit for first, Berry said. Thosewere some pretty tense momentsin the press room waiting for thefinal tally.

Berry says that while he doesntmiss the all-night drives and early-morning slack, the friends he

made along the way and the cama-raderie among competitors arepriceless.

Steve and I still talk on thephone almost every week, he said.Thats whats great about rodeo,and its especially true for the steerwrestlers, I think. Its a tight-knitbunch of guys who will do any-thing to help each other, but we allwanted to win.

Berry remained relatively in-jury-free while wrestling steers fora living for nearly two decades.But a knee injury he sustainedwhen his horse fell on him whileteam roping forced an end to hissteer wrestling career.

I loved steer wrestling, but mybody just couldnt do it anymore,Berry said.

He became a sales representa-tive for an animal health supplycompany for several years, andnow sells trucks for Bailey Motorsin Okmulgee, Okla.

His twins son Denver anddaughter Jayci are seniors inhigh school. Jayci barrel races andDenver wrestled steers in juniorhigh and as a freshman, but hispassion is football.

He has some of the most natu-ral talent throwing steers Ive everseen in a kid, Berry said. Heliked it, but he loves football like Iloved rodeo. He hurt his kneethrowing steers when he was afreshman, missed a couple games,and that really killed him. Mywife, Jamie, and I really got intogoing to all of his games.

Berry has found another outletfor his competitive nature: pokertournaments.

I dont know if its the samekind of rush, but I can compare alot of it to rodeo, he said. When Istarted playing, I was a novice,

and they ate me alive.As with rodeo, he improved

quickly.I wouldnt say Im at world-

class level, but I do pretty well inmy circles, he said.

Id love to play in the World Se-ries of Poker someday. Its likesteer wrestling was for me; youcan always get better, but youllnever perfect it. I never thought Imade a perfect run. No matter howfast I was, I could always break itdown to where I could have been

just a little faster.I guess its just the competition

I love.

activities that emphasize healthyliving, educational goals, and stew-ardship of park resources.

We live in a rural area and arefar apart from each other. This is achance to spend time together out-side of school, wrote the middleschoolers in their contest entry.For those of us that have neverbeen out camping we will learn topitch a tent and learn other valu-able camping skills. We will keep anature journal so our memorieswill last a lifetime.

To get ready for their campout

next month, the students partici-pated in an Explorers Program

with Badlands Chief Ranger CaseyOsback.

They learned about search andrescue procedures, getting hands-on training in important outdoorskills that professional rangersrely on.

The Explorers Program allowskids to learn by doing, said Os-back. We hope the memories theymake today will inspire some of

them to pursue careers in theparks. Ultimately, our work withthese students is helping to createthe next generation of park stew-ards.

Interior middle school teacherJennifer Van Pelt said, The kidsare so excited about this opportu-nity. Its a great culmination of ourongoing educational partnershipwith Badlands.

When the freshmen studentsfrom Douglas, New Underwood,Wall and Kadoka Area highschools arrived at the DouglasHigh School complex on Wednes-day morning, they had no ideawhat the day would involve. Firedepartments, ambulance services,Pennington County Sheriffs de-partments, South Dakota High-way Patrol, personnel fromEllsworth Air Force Base, mem-bers of the South Dakota NationalGuard, the 7th Circuit Court,MADD among many others joinedforces to teach the youth about thedangers and consequences ofchoices.

The full day of hands-on activi-

ties known as Freshman Impact:Caught in the Moment, addressed

issues of particular interests ofteens today like peer pressure, tex-ting while driving, impaired driv-ing, teen suicide awareness, bully-ing, underage drinking, syntheticdrugs and other drugs.

New Underwood High SchoolPrincipal Joel Hovland is im-pressed with the impact of the pro-gram. Since Ive been in New Un-derwood, I have attended thisamazing event, stated Hovland.Every time when we arrive, thestudents are giggling and not tak-ing anything serious. When weleave though, you can hear acricket on that bus ride home.They are definitely thinking aboutwhat they learn here today.

Cofounder of Freshman Impact:Caught in the Moment RickMcPherson was excited about theevent. This is the largest group ofstudents we have had. Today we

have 247 students here and wevehad a pretty smooth day, statedMcPherson.

After the students returnedfrom lunch, the Douglas Audito-rium was transformed into a skitscene and court room where stu-dents saw firsthand exactly wheredecision making can impact themost. Volunteer students from allof the participating schools per-

formed a skit involving drugs andalcohol after moving words from

Joyce Glynn of White River talkedabout her experience.

Do you all like going to school,asked Glynn. Many of the studentindicated no. My son did not ei-ther. He did it because he had to.He couldnt wait to get out ofschool and make his own deci-sions, explained Glynn. Andwhen he graduated, my husbandsaid to him stay at the party. Weknew he would be drinking so wesaid to stay the night there and wewould see him the next day. Forsome reason, he tried to drivehome at six in the morning and hedid not make it. Alcohol confusesyour thought process. Now histime he put into going to schooland hating it is wasted, statedGlynn.

The students then walked andviewed the multiple agenciesworking together to mock rescue

the victims of a scene outside andthen were ushered inside to watchthe legal ramifications of thechoices of the students.

The event concluded with aquestion and answer session aboutthe day with most questions beingabout the legalities of the courtsystem.

The next Freshmen Impact pro-gram will be in Custer on May 10.

Governor Dennis Daugaard hassigned an executive proclamationdesignating May as Water SafetyMonth in South Dakota.

The proclamation highlights avariety of water safety issuesthrough safe swimming facilities,pools and programs. It also lendsitself to the vast water recreationopportunities South Dakota has inits lakes, rivers and streams.

South Dakota's state parks arepopular summer destinations for aday trip to some of the finest swim-ming beaches in the state.

Park visitors are reminded thatswimming at state parks is attheir own risk, and there are nolifeguards on duty. These are mul-tiple-use areas, and swimmersshould also be aware of other

water users, such as boaters andfishermen.

May is also the unofficial start toboating season in South Dakota.

Our lakes and rivers are popu-lar destinations for boaters, saidBrandon Gust, boating law admin-istrator for the state Departmentof Game, Fish and Parks. Thatcan lead to times when our watersmay see heavy boat traffic.

Whether crowded or not, com-mon sense and courtesy will helpensure a relaxing and fun outing.

Gust recommends a completeboating safety course.

Like driving a car, there ismuch to learn when operating aboat or personal watercraft, even

May is Water Safety monthfor those who have operated a boatfor years, he said. Statistics showthat about 89 percent of all boatingfatalities involved an operator thathad not received any formal boat-ing-safety instruction. Simply put,nationwide boating safety and ed-ucational efforts are saving lives.

Life jackets also save lives.Seventy percent of all fatal

boating accident victims drowned,and of those, 84 percent were re-ported as not wearing a life

jacket, Gust said.Alcohol and boating do not mix,

he added.Alcohol use is the leading con-

tributor in fatal boating accidents;it was listed as the leading factorin 16 percent of those deaths.

enjoy getting up and out early totake care of the livestock.

We have some serious courtingand some serious nesting takingplace and as usual there is quiteenough activity to keep us well en-tertained!

Another road runner sighting.

That was fun and right here in ouryard.The quail are still favored for the

Comic Dance Award. It is sort ofa loose line dance formation andgoes something like this:

Bob your head, keep with thebeat, quick step, quick step, pick upthose feet. Look to the left, look tothe right, spread those wings andtake a little flight.

They come by morning andevening and spend mid-day acrossthe road in their Quail Condos.

Lloyd has been enjoying his timespent with Ernie Adams, the fellowwho builds the dwarf cars. Lloyd isputting together his yearly albumand Ernies recent achievements.This year it is a 1934 Ford at about1/3 scale. These cars are all li-censed and Ernie drives them tolocal car shows and plans theRoute 66 Road Trip this summerin his 1934.

Skyler has two more baseball

games today and Saturday. As itis not a huge task to button up ourHidden Valley Hideaway we doenjoy these final days. Hidden Val-ley Hideaway sounds much moreposh than Our trailer in thedesert. Whatever! It is what it is!

Posted By Pastor Cornelius R. StamJohn the Baptist introduced our Lord with the proclamation: Repent, for the Kingdom of

Heaven is at hand (Matt.3:2). Throughout His earthly ministry Christ was known as the Sonof David, the king with whom God made a covenant to establish His Kingdom forever.

The Old Testament prophets predicted that Christ would and He will reign on earthupon the throne of His father David. While His Kingdom was being proclaimed at hand, Hewalked and talked and ate with men as the Son of Man. Wearied with travelling, He sat atJacobs well and asked for a drink of water. Pressed by the throng, He got into a fishing boatand addressed the multitudes from the sea. Hated by His adversaries, He was tried, scourged,spit upon, and nailed to a tree. This was indeed Christ manifest in the flesh.

With regard to His humiliation, however, the Apostle Paul says, by divine inspiration: Godalso hath highly exalted Him and given Him a name which is above every name (Phil.2:9).

Again, the Apostle declares that Gods mighty power was wrought in Christ, when He

raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places, FARABOVE ALL (Eph.1:20). He is no longer to be known as the lowly Jesus, but as the ex-alted Lord in heaven. And this has its bearing on us too:

Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: Yea, though we have known Christafter the flesh, yet now, henceforth, know we Him no more (IICor.5:16). Our blessed Saviouris now to be known as the glorified Son of God, the Great Dispenser of Grace to a lost hu-manity; the One who in love and mercy tasted death for every man (Heb.2:9).
