Cadott Village Board

New squad for


Cadott Police
By Kayla Peche
The Cadott Police Department is on a new cycle for a vehicle and after help from an equipment grant, the department
has ordered a new squad.
We had to make a choice by Oct. 1 in order to get the
equipment grant from the state for equipment for the new
squad, said Gerald Rykal, board member, at the Oct. 5 regular Cadott Village Board meeting.
The department participated in a four-month grant with the
National Highway Transportation Safety Administration
(NHTSA) from June-September, along with the Chippewa
Falls, Lake Hallie and Bloomer police departments.
The grant reimbursed the Village of Cadott for full-time
officers overtime wages and part-time officers wages with
benefits, said Daryl Pries, Cadott officer.
Pries said the NHTSA also matched reimbursement funds
of about $3,000, which will assist in purchasing new equipment for the vehicle.
Our department budgets for a new squad car about every
four to five years, said Pries. This just happened to be the
year we were planning on replacing the 2010 Dodge Charger
with a new vehicle. We decided to go with a 2016 Ford Explorer Police Interceptor sport utility vehicle.
Cadott police chief Louis Eslinger received quotes for Ford
Explorers from Chilson Motors, Thorp Ford and Bloomer
Ford, but decided to go with the cheapest deal from Bloomer.
Even though we like to stay local with Chilson, Bloomer
Ford was $4,000 cheaper on a Ford Explorer, said Rykal.

Mother Nature was against the CornellFire Department in saving a home Monday afternoon, Oct. 12, but
her gusts spared Billy Jo Andersons chickens, keeping the fire just far enough away that the animals received only a few singed feathers. As of deadline, the cause of the fire was still unknown. No one was
home at the time, and Andersons dog and cat also got out OK.

Mother Nature gives firefighters no chance


By Monique Westaby
No doubt, said Cornell fire chief Denny Klass in response to if the house could have been saved from a fire if
not for the wind. It might have scorched the end a little but
with the wind, we didnt have a chance.
Mother Nature was against us yesterday.
Klass and the Cornell Fire Department were called to the
home of Billy Jo Anderson on 265th Street (South Eighth
Street) late Monday afternoon, Oct. 12. What started in the

With just a little over three weeks to go, Chippewa ValleyElectric Cooperative is nearing completion of
its new office and service building in Cornell. The project started in early April this year, and according
to a newsletter from Todd Howard, president and CEO of CVEC, a new building was needed because the
previous facility had structural problems. Workers say they are excited to get into the new building, after
being confined to the small office space that was Dr. Lanes dental office on Main Street. The project is
still on schedule, and everything should be completed by Nov. 9, with employees beginning to move
things over around the 4th. The project was estimated around $3 million, and features a larger office
space, better insulation and ground source heating.

garage quickly moved into the house as a result of wind gusts


recorded near 28 mph for Cornell.
Al Swanson, a firefighter with the department, saw the fire
and called dispatchers.
We were coming down the road and saw smoke, said
Swanson. At first we thought it was further down so we
thought maybe somebody was harvesting corn and started
something on fire. But then we got to the corner and we could
see smoke.
Because of the dark color of the smoke, Swanson says he
knew it was something that shouldnt be burning.
I told my brother, Drive down that road, said Swanson,
pointing to a dead end road that parallels Andersons house.
I could see it was burning on the back of the garage. I called
it in and 10 minutes later when we (the fire department) got
down there the garage was already down.
It was already in the house.
Klass, who takes his own vehicle to calls, said when he got
there, the front door was open and he did a quick walkthrough, making sure no one was home. By the time he came
back up from the downstairs, Klass said the house was filled
with smoke, but he was confident no one was inside.
Crews werent on scene very long before smoke began
making its way through the rafters and roof, but with tender
and manpower help from Sheldon, Cadott and Anson, firefighters continued to douse what they could. But just as fast
as they drenched the hot spots, the wind would pick up and
fire would break through again.
The wind played a significant role, said Klass. We just
couldnt get ahead.
The fire started at the back of the garage, but as of deadline,
Klass says he is uncertain as to what started it.

Advancing student learning by lowering responsibility


By Monique Westaby
Managing Editor
Several weeks ago one
of our staff members
wrote an article (Paperless classrooms a better option?) which
talked about some new
happenings in the Cornell School District.
The idea as a whole isnt terrible, but perhaps some of the consequences should be
considered.
The article recaps a school board meeting from Sept. 28, and says the district is
considering advancing their technology
and going paperless, since students already have Chromebooks available to
them.
Good idea, right? Go a little green, eliminate paper from the classrooms, and create
a more efficient and effective way to
teach classes, as Caroline Hickethier, Cornell English teacher, says.
She already implements Google Classroom in her 10 classes, and says it keeps
assignments and due dates at the fingertips
of students, allows her to see who has completed an assignment and who hasnt, and
gives immediate feedback when grading is
completed.
But its the About section on Google
Classroom that helps make things paperless, writes Kayla Peche in her school
board article.
About is a three-ringed binder with
anything a student will need to refer back
to through the course. For English, Hickethier includes a syllabus, writing strategy,
style guide, proof reader, and grammar
and usage rules. She said no student can
come to class saying they dont have something, because it is all in the About section.
Although this does eliminate excuses for
students not bringing their work to class, it
also spoon feeds our youth, teaching them
there will be a safety net if they arent responsible enough to bring what they need
for class. Teenagers dont need someone
picking up after (or before) them, they
need to learn to pick up after themselves.
With a paper classroom, students are
responsible for bringing their work home
with them, and returning with it the next
class. With paperless, kids no longer
have to consider the consequences behind
forgetting something.
At the meeting, Hickethier says Google
Classroom encourages responsibility, but
where it does that just isnt clear. How can
teaching students that everything they will
ever need will be cut, pasted and dried for
them without any effort on their part, encourage responsibility?
While utilizing technology in the classroom is a good one, and, lets face it, our

world is 90 percent paperless, 10 percent


papered, its the principle behind the matter that is whats getting left behind.
Since the green movement really hit
the ground running a few years ago, paper
has become this big, bad, kill the earth
commodity. But is it really that harmful?
Or is eliminating it even worse for our
world?
Theres something to be said for a red
A+ handwritten on the top of a paper that
so much extra effort was put in to, or taking the time to get a pen and paper, and sit
down at a desk, to write out your thoughts
for an assignment. Without that, what are
we going to do when our boss asks us to
write out a schedule, or fill out employee
evaluation forms?
What will grandparents hang on their refrigerators, printed computer drawn pictures? What will parents show off to their
friends, a tablet screen that with five clicks
shows a standard teacher response of 100
percent? We need those personalized
grades, we need those personalized good

job responses, we need to keep using


paper.
What happens when the batteries die or
the Internet connection is lost? In 10 years,
will our newest generation even know how
to sign their names on a legal document, or
fill out a job application without using a
keyboard?
Dave Elliott, Cornell principal, said he
would like to see all staff members and students use Google Classroom, that its a
very clean way.
Clean, maybe, but at what cost?
Not only does it teach students that
everything will be handed to them, it also
presents a health concern to be so techsavvy.
According to an article by doctors of optometry Gary Heiting, OD, and Larry K.
Wan, OD, Many pediatric eye doctors believe that heavy computer use among children puts them at risk for early myopia (a
refractive error in the eye where near objects are clear but distant objects are
blurry). Recent research appears to con-

firm that fear.


Computers have been around since the
late 40s, but it wasnt until the last two
decades that they have been made into a
staple for classrooms, both high school and
elementary. Two decades isnt very long to
study the affects or outcome of something,
or is it?
Heiting and Wan continue, writing that
sitting in front of a screen is stressful for
youth, demanding fine motor skills from
young eyes that are not well developed.
So are paperless classrooms really a better option? It might be easier, keep things
neater and keep students from forgetting
their work, but in the long run, its teaching
youth they dont need to be responsible for
remembering anything, and it might even
be compromising their vision.
Kids need to learn how to use technology, it is unfortunately everywhere in our
world, but we still need to keep paper in
the classrooms. Advancing student learning by being that tech savvy isnt worth the
cost of hindering student development.

Dont cut funding, make abortion illegal


By Kayla Peche
Politicians are playing
a game with Americans cant get them to
agree to be pro-life, so
lets make them hate a
pro-choice organization
instead.
If you cant fight the issue, fight the
source, right?
According to an NPRarticle, abortion
opinions in America rarely change, with a
large amount of people not knowing where
they stand. The issue is almost 50/50
around the world, and a lot of the opinions
are swayed by different situations.
In the political world, abortion fires up
both parties. Its one of the top issues used
by Republicans and Democrats to motivate, fundraise and organize.
The latest abortion fight isnt focused on
the larger issue of abortion itself. Its been
about Planned Parenthood. And recent
surveys suggest that public opinion on the
organization is more malleable than opinion on the topic of abortion, wrote
Danielle Kurtzleben, NPRreporter.
More malleable is exactly why fighting the source is where politicians land.
Its an, if we get rid of this, then we get
rid of abortion mentality.
Cutting funding for Planned Parenthood
is like cutting funding for the lives of so
many people. It is cutting funding for the
one in eight women who will develop
breast cancer. It is cutting funding for the
leading cause of cancer death in women,

cervical cancer. And it is cutting funding


for the 98 percent of women who use a
birth control method. (Not all use Planned
Parenthood, but the option is there.)
Planned Parenthood is a substantial resource used by millions of men, women
and young adults in the world. According
to their website, for nearly 100 years,
Planned Parenthood has promoted a common sense approach to womens health
and well-being, based on respect for each
individuals right to make informed, independent decisions about health, sex and
family planning.
With over 700 health centers nationwide, these facilities provide prevention
from unintended pregnancies, reduce the
spread of sexually transmitted infections,
and screen for cervical and other cancers.
The benefits from the centers outweigh
any negative connotation conservatives
may put on Planned Parenthood.
Recently, Planned Parenthood has been
under scrutiny for videos that have surfaced on possible illegal activity.
According to Fox News, the 10 videos
released so far capture Planned Parenthood officials casually describing how
they sometimes obtain tissue from aborted
fetuses for researchers.
In one video, a doctor for a Planned
Parenthood tissue harvesting partner appears to admit a babys heart actually is
still beating at times following abortions
and an ex-procurement tech gives a firstperson account of watching a babys heart
beat before she dissects its brain.
The Fox News article states, people
against Planned Parenthood say the videos
show employees accepting money for fetal
tissue and altering abortion procedures for
usable organs, which are both against federal laws.
Planned Parenthood and its defenders
say nothing is done illegally and the
videos were altered.
Regardless if the accusations are true,
thats something the court will decide, but
with abortion legal after Roe vs. Wade,
abortions will continue to happen.

Women can choose to have a legal abortion at these facilities, which gives the organization the right to the fetus and the
right to donate fetal tissue.
It may be insensitive or disheartening to
call a living child a fetus or specimen, but
that is exactly what happens after an abortion. The life has already been taken from
this child, so why not use it to help those
who are living today? Those who donate
their organs after death, or possibly their
entire body to science, are not protested
against.
Stem cell research provides huge breakthroughs in the medical world, with embryonic stem cells at the top of the list for
their potential to grow indefinitely and become any type of bodily tissue.
Medical researchers widely agree stem
cell research has the potential to dramatically alter approaches to understanding
and treating diseases, and alleviate suffering, according to reports.
In the future, most medical researchers
anticipate being able to use technology
gained from stem cell research to treat a
variety of diseases and impairments, such
as spinal cord injuries and Parkinsons disease.
Embryonic stem cells are not the only
ones available, with researchers using
adult stem cells now, but if both resources are there, why not use them?
Planned Parenthood is doing nothing
wrong as far as legality is concerned when
providing an abortion. If they are selling
instead of donating tissue, then they will
be punished for that.
The public needs to stop blaming a facility that helps so many people and provides affordable health care an almost
nonexistent commodity in the U.S.
If someone is against abortion and prolife, then maybe they need to look at the
real issue for who needs to be persecuted.
Educate the public on health and sexual
consequences, so unintended pregnancies
dont happen.
Stop abortion, not a health care
provider.

Autumn, predictably beautiful and memorable


By Sen. Terry Moulton
Predictable isnt usually a word most people associate
with Wisconsins changing seasons and crazy weather.
Fall in Wisconsin can be anything from muggy, summerlike days to heavy rain or snow. One thing we can always
count on is that every autumn, somewhere in the midst of
all the changing weather, the leaves turn and Wisconsin is
blanketed with bright shades of red, orange and yellow.
Its hard to match the beauty of Wisconsins 16 million
acres of forestland changing color in the fall, especially in
the rolling hills and deep valleys of west-central Wisconsin.
While we might take the change of season and its accompanying views for granted, every fall thousands and thousands of people make their way to Wisconsin to take in the
fall colors for themselves.
Tourism in Wisconsin is big business.
When you add it all up, its an $18.5 billion slice of our
economic pie and produces over 187,000 jobs for Wisconsin. Tourism has a huge impact on our local and state economy and contributes towards everything from roads and
bridges to schools and parks.
In fact, according to Wisconsin Department of Tourism
secretary Stephanie Klett, if tourism were to completely dry
up in our state, every taxpayer would need to pay an additional $620 in taxes each year to make up the difference.
Wisconsins award-winning Department of Tourism actively works to increase tourism in our state, partnering with
Wisconsin businesses to lay out the welcome mat for visi-

tors. Since 2010, tourism activity in Wisconsin has grown


over 25 percent, increasing by $3.7 billion in just four years.
One tool developed by the department is the popular
Travel Wisconsin Fall Color Report, which gives users the
latest information on changing colors across the state.
The report is powered by more than a hundred volunteers
across the state who provide updates for all 72 counties. To
get the report, you can text WI Fall to 46811, or sign up
to have the Fall Color Report emailed to you every Thursday just in time to make weekend plans.
If youre looking for a scenic drive nearer to home, several spots in the state made more than a few must-see lists
for fall color.
The Highground Veterans Memorial Park in Neillsville
offers spectacular views of tree-covered glacial moraines
and hill country.
A trip to historic Chippewa Falls offers great views of the
falls nestled in the changing colors of the Chippewa Valley.
For something a little farther away, the Upper Mississippi
River Valley offers over 250 miles of charming river towns
as you travel Great River Road between Prescott and Potosi.
So, as you think about your travels this fall, whether
its to hunt and fish in a nearby park, or enjoying the colors
with family somewhere new, be sure to visit travel
wisconsin.com. There youll find trip ideas, things to do,
and plenty of ideas and resources to make sure you and your
family have a memorable Wisconsin weekend this fall.

Bicycle and pedestrian


traffic deaths on the rise
From the WisDOT
Last month, 63 people died in traffic crashes on Wisconsin
roadways, which was 16 more than September 2014, and
seven more than the five-year average for September, according to preliminary statistics from the WisDOT.
As of Sept. 30, 424 people have died in Wisconsin traffic
crashes this year, including 68 motorcycle operators, two motorcycle passengers, 40 pedestrians and 13 bicyclists. Traffic
deaths through September were 60 more than the same period
in 2014, and 11 more than the five-year average.
Traffic fatalities so far this year are up by more than 16
percent over last year, says David Pabst, director of the WisDOT Bureau of Transportation Safety. However, last year
Wisconsin had the lowest number of traffic fatalities since
1943. This year, weve experienced a significant increase in
traffic fatalities involving pedestrians and bicyclists.
To prevent needless deaths, drivers must share the road
with pedestrians and bicyclists, and
watch for them, particularly when
making turns or lane changes, and at
intersections. They must yield the
right of way to pedestrians in
cross walks and at intersections, and must watch for bicyclists, leaving at least 3
feet of clearance when
passing bikes on roadways.

Tales of our Beginnings


Cadott Cornell Lake Holcombe areas
Fishing was the main source of fall
entertainment for Lake Holcombe back
in the day, thanks to its prime location
near the river and lake.
Many families pick-ed fruit to can,
and used them for jellies and jams
for the upcoming winter months. Gardens were harvested and potatoes were
dug.
One family reminisced that while
digging the long-lasting spud, they
would bring a can to pick worms for
fishing, or to sell to other fishermen.
Another winter delicacy included
wild nuts, which would be saved for the
frigid season ahead, or for making nut
bread.
Ruby (Willmarth) Ewer and Barbara
(Courtesy of the (Bartlett) going fishing when the
Holcombe Centennial, 1905-2005) work was finished circa 1950-51.

John Pinero to portray


Packer legend at FVAA
During the bye week of the Green Bay Packers, the Flambeau Valley Arts Association (FVAA) will present a performance by John Pinero as Vince Lombardi in his One Man Play.
The skit will be Sunday, Oct. 25, at 3 p.m., at the Ladysmith
High School.
Pinero was often told he resembled Lombardi, so eventually he decided to create a show about the Green Bay great
and captures the essence of Lombardi in this one man show.
Pinero has appeared as a keynote speaker for large corporations and has appeared at the Pro Football Hall of Fame
and the Green Bay Packer Hall of Fame. He was also featured
during the 2006 pre-game Super Bowl promos.
The FVAA asks the public to join them in celebration of
the 50th anniversary of the Lombardi trophy. Those wearing
Packer attire or colors will be eligible to win a Packer basket
prize drawing.
The Ladysmith Fine Arts Gallery will also have an exhibit
at the community table outside the auditorium. The event is
sponsored, in part, by a grant from the Wisconsin Arts Board.
Tickets will be available at the door.

fundraiser of the year. There will also be a raffle for craft
items donated by vendors.
Proceeds from the lunch benefit the auxiliary, which raises
money for projects and equipment needs for the fire department. The lunch menu includes a hot meal with desserts and
beverages.
The bazaar offers dozens of exhibitors some from previous years, and a dozen or more new vendors this year. Items
for sale include arts, crafts, leather goods, wood crafts, handmade soaps, scrubbers, quilts, rugs, purses, pillows, country

crafts, silk floral, candles, jewelry, health supplements, skin


and foot care, baby items, holiday, Scentsy candles, ThirtyOne, Norwex, Tupperware and more.

Kathy Jo Johansen

Elwood Jerry Beaudin

Kathy Jo Johansen, 58,


Luck, passed away unexpectedly at Regions Hospital in St.
Paul, Minn., from a sudden,
severe brain aneurysm Oct. 11,
2015.
Kathy was born Nov. 3,
1956, to Norbert and Lillian
Kraus in Richland Center. She
grew up in southwest Wisconsin until moving to Holcombe
her freshman year in 1971.
After graduating from Lake
Holcombe, Kathy married her high school sweetheart, Gary
(Shark) Dixon, Jan. 4, 1974. Together they had four children,
Jeffery, David, Ryan and Jodi.
She married Dean Johansen in 2002, and they made their
home in Luck.
Kathy spent the majority of her career in the restaurant and
hospitality business. What made her so successful was her
love of cooking, combined with a unique ability to connect
with people. She had an infectious smile and could always
brighten anyones day.
In more recent years, she worked as an advocate for the
victims of domestic violence and abuse. She spent countless
hours helping people at the Community Referral Agency
(CRA) in the shelters and courtrooms.
Kathy was a very passionate person who had a love of
things dear to her. She had a knack for bargain shopping and
there wasnt a deal she couldnt find.
She spent a large portion of time with family and friends,
playing cards, camping, fishing and traveling. There were numerous kids and young adults who were positively influenced
by her ability to help them through tough times, along with
many more who referred to her as a second mom.
She loved her music and singing karaoke. Kathy loved to
go to her kids and grandkids ballgames and events, and rarely
ever missed her beloved Packers. She was a huge animal
lover and always took great care to spend lots of time with
her pets.
Just like the beautiful flowers she loved to grow, her life
was a bright, vibrant source to so many peoples lives. She
will be greatly missed by all.
She is survived by her husband of 13 years, Dean; mother,
Lillian Zoromski; mother-in-law, Evelyn Johansen; siblings,
Sherry (Don) McMenamin, Jeff Kraus and Totie (Tony)
Nagel; sister-in-law, Margaret Johansen; children, Jeff (Chasity) Dixon; David Dixon; Ryan Dixon and Jodi (Larry)
Olson; step-children, Ed (Laura) Johansen, Eric (Carrie) Johansen and Anne Johansen; 22 grandchildren; eight nieces
and nephews; and beloved dog, Max.
Memorial services will be held at 2:30 p.m. Saturday, Oct.
17, at Holcombe United Methodist Church in Holcombe,
with the Rev. Jason Kim officiating. Visitation will be from
11 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Saturday at the church, with a luncheon to
follow.
In lieu of flowers, the family will set up a memorial fund
in Kathys name, with all proceeds going to the victims of
domestic violence and abuse at the CRA.
Online condolences can be expressed at bortonleiserfuneralhome.com.

Holcombe Happenings
By Janice Craig 715-595-4380
Barb Lompa drove to Circle Pines, Minn., last Wednesday
to join her sister, Judy Ahlers, on a bus trip to New Ulm,
Minn. They toured German stores and learned about German
heritage. They also had lunch in a German restaurant, then
saw the home of the artist and author of Millions of Cats.
Ron Finke drove up and helped Bob Lompa Jr. get their
hunting cabin and trails ready for hunting.
Barb Lompa joined others in the Walk for Life in Ladysmith. This is a benefit of Care Net, which is an organization
that helps families in need during pregnancy and after to train
new mothers on parenting.
The Holcombe Seniors Club will meet at the Holcombe
United Methodist Church Wednesday at noon. Everyone will
bring a decorated pumpkin. All seniors are welcome to join
them each month.
The Holcombe Helping Hands Club will meet at the Birch
Creek Town Hall Thursday to tie quilts, and stuff pillows and
teddy bears in preparation for the Chippewa County Christmas program and Jason Zunker Christmas Memory. They
will also sign Christmas cards to send to shut-ins or anyone
who needs an encouraging card during the Christmas season.
Once again the trees have been beautiful, as the colors signal the changing of the seasons. We have never had Asian
beetles in our home before. After killing about two dozen of
them, I can sympathize with the people who have talked for
years about what a nuisance they are.
I cant recall how many years it has been since we have
had corn this tall. The rain came at just the right time to mature the crop, and now the farmers are working like beavers
to get it all in the silos.

Dont forget to share the


road this harvest season

The Lions Club motto is We Serve, and that is exactly what the Cadott Lions Club, in conjunction with
the Jim Falls Lions Club, did Sept. 12 when they installed a ramp for John and Annette Shakal, making it
easier for them to get out and about. Building ramps is a service project the Jim Falls Lions have been
involved with for several years, so when the Cadott Lions learned of a need in their community, they
called the neighboring club. The Jim Falls Lions had a ramp in storage, and within a day, arrangements
were made to get the ramp and install it. Shown, left to right, are Gary Licht, Paul Kaiser, Le Roy Audorf,
John Shakal, Joe Semanko, Paul Helminski, Jim Raleigh, and John and Annette Shakal. Anyone in need
of a ramp can contact the Cadott Lions at cadottlions@gmail.com, or any club member.

Cadott Library Board

Friends of the Library goes non-profit


By Heather Dekan
The Friends of the Library has applied for non-profit corporation status in Wisconsin, which is the first step to the becoming a federally recognized non-profit.
Ive created a pamphlet to put out in the library, said
Paula Stanton, Cadott Library director at the regular board
meeting Oct. 12. So hopefully anyone who is interested in
joining will inquire about it.
The Friends of the Library group is applying to go nonprofit for audit purposes, but says it will also make it easier
to get donations.
They are doing that in the hopes to increase donations,
said Stanton.
And hopefully eventually generate funds for a new library
building, said Les Liptak, Cadott Library Board vice president.
In her report, Stanton reminded the community of the life-

sized Candyland game Friday, Oct. 16, at 3:30 p.m., at the


library.
There will be candy passed out along the course of the
game, said Stanton. And all ages are welcome to participate, and hopefully the kids will like it.

During the fall harvest season, drivers may encounter slowmoving agricultural implements on rural roadways.
To safely share the road, drivers should slow down immediately whenever they see a fluorescent orange slow-moving vehicle emblem on the rear of a tractor or other piece of
equipment, says Dori Petznick, Wisconsin State Patrol lieutenant. They also must be alert, focused and patient while
trying to pass slow-moving vehicles. Its important that drivers can clearly see whats ahead of a slow-moving vehicle
before they try to pass it.
To do their part in preventing crashes, farmers and other
operators of slow-moving vehicles must follow safety regulations.
According to state law, farm tractors, agricultural implements, animal-drawn vehicles or other vehicles that are normally operated at speeds below 25 mph, must display a Slow
Moving Vehicle (SMV) sign on the left rear of the vehicle.
In all cases even when the vehicle is not an SMV if it
is operated during hours of darkness, the front and rear of the
vehicle must have lights illuminated (white to the front, red
to the rear). A citation for failure to display an SMV sign or
a violation of the lighting requirement each costs $162.70.
Vehicles traveling slower than normal traffic must stay as
far to the right-side of the roadway as practical. This does not
mean slow vehicles must drive on the shoulder of the road,
although this is allowed if there is room to do so safely.
Farmers and others using animal-drawn vehicles on a
roadway have the same rights and responsibilities as operators of motor vehicles, Petznick says. You should be careful
not to frighten the animals. Do not sound your horn or flash
your lights near them, and give the animals plenty of room
when passing.
Caution, courtesy and common sense will go a long way
to keeping our rural roadways safe during the harvest season.

Cadott students mark Manufacturing Day at CVTC


With a welding class in which his students can earn dual
credit with Chippewa Valley Technical College (CVTC),
Cadott High School technical education teacher Dave Goodman says he knows his students have interest in the field, but
theres so much more they could learn at CVTC.
So on national Manufacturing Day Oct. 2, Goodman
brought four students to tour the programs at CVTCs Manufacturing Education Center. Those four were among about
130 students from nine schools participating in the tours, followed by tours of area manufacturing plants. The Cadott students toured Curt Manufacturing, a trailer hitch manufacturer
in Altoona.
We wanted to expose the students to the manufacturing
areas, Goodman said. They are not getting experience in a
lot of these areas.
Much of the interest in manufacturing among Cadott students is in welding, Goodman said. There are students who
are already working in welding jobs part time or in the summer.
The Manufacturing Day activities gave the students a slice
of experience in a whole lot more. They toured programs in
Electromechanical Technology, Industrial Mechanic, Machine Tooling Technics, Welding, Manufacturing Engineering Technology and Nano Engineering Technology.
They also heard from industry professionals who related
how what CVTC students learn in the programs is applied in
the manufacturing plant.
We cant operate our plant without the skills that are
taught here, said Ed Blaskowski of Bush Brothers & Company, Augusta.

Blaskowski is a 1997 graduate of the CVTC Electromechanical Technology program, and he told the students
about the automated systems that allow the company to produce cans of beans at a rapid pace.
Were sharing with them information on how fast we run,
and how we couldnt do it without skilled people,
Blaskowski said. If theyre contemplating what to do in life,
this is a real good opportunity for them.
We are looking to bridge high school students to business
and industry in our region and show the opportunities in manufacturing, said Jeff Sullivan, dean of manufacturing at
CVTC. These are kids who are at the point that they are
making career decisions and post-secondary decisions.
Manufacturing Day is just one of the ways CVTC reaches
out to the high schools in the area, offering the annual Manufacturing Open House in March, and Skills USA competitions.

Timeless Gems offers just what youre looking for


By Monique Westaby
For 16 years, Kim Gundlach owned and operated a fine
jewelry store out of Bloomer, serving customers all around
the area. She closed her doors four years ago, but now, 20
years since that opening day in 1995, Gundlach will re-open
her business in Stanley.
I moved to Stanley after I got married in 2005, said
Gundlach, and decided to relocate the store once my children started school. I had to be closer to home for my children since my husband works inconsistent hours
The new store, still titled Timeless Gems, is located on East
First Avenue, next to the post office in Stanley. It still features
the same high-quality fine jewlery she offered in Bloomer.
I will also continue to provide goldsmith services and purchasing broken and unwanted jewelry at competitive gold
market prices, she says. I enjoy working with customers
on a one-on-one basis to ensure we find just what the customer is looking for if I dont already have it in the store.
Gundlach, a bench jeweler (goldsmith), says she has been
interested in jewelry repair and fabrication since her time at
UW-Eau Claire. After attending an NWTC program in Green
Bay, she decided to open her own business in Bloomer,
where she says she saw a need.
Her experience and tricks of the trade learning came
from her time at a jewelry store inEau Claire, but her dream
became reality when she opened Timeless Gems in Bloomer.
That dream will continue with her grand opening in Stanley Nov. 27 (Black Friday), although the doors will officially
be open to the public Oct. 15(20 years to the day of her original opening). The grand opening celebration, which includes
sale prices and drawings will continue Nov. 30 through

Dec. 3.
Jewelry is more than just fashion, says Gundlach. Its
tokens of love and many times these tokens represent special
memories. I look forward to helping those who visit my store
to choose the jewelry that will forever commemorate the special times in their lives.

Preventing drugs
with knowledge
By Kayla Peche
Almost half of high school seniors have abused a drug of
some kind.Even as early as eighth grade, 15 percent of kids
have used marijuana, according to statistics on teendrugrehab.com.
Thanks to the West Central Drug Task Force, and the Cornell-Lake Holcombe 21st Century Community Learning Center (CLC), a drug prevention workshop will be at Cornell High
School to help educate parents.
As a parent myself, I wanted to be knowledgeable about
what the risks (and) exposures would be to my own kids,
said Andrea Smith, program director for the CLC. Even if
we think our kids are going to say No, theres always the
chance they will be in a place where drugs are present and
could be exposed without even knowing it.
The free prevention workshop will be held in the commons
Oct. 20, at 7 p.m., as part of Red Ribbon Week. Parents will
hear about the warning signs of drug use, view drug paraphernalia and ask questions.
The presentation is part of a larger Red Ribbon Week event
that will be happening in grades 4-12 the week of October 2630, said Michelle Bowe, chair of the Red Ribbon Week committee. We hope to reach lots of families with this important
message.
The Red Ribbon Campaign was established by the National
Family Partnership with the mission to lead and support our
nations families and communities in nurturing the full potential of healthy, drug free youth, according to their website.
Smith said nine years ago, the task force presented a similar
workshop and it was very enlightening. They brought samples of real drugs for parents to see. Back then, pharm parties were an issue, where youth would bring prescription
drugs and mix them in a bowl so no one knew what they were
taking. Smith says pharm parties and meth are on the up swing
again, and parents need to be aware of it.
Parents really need to embrace the reality of these issues
because they are real and they are here, even in our small
towns.

Over 7,000 books given to Cornell Elementary


Book Trust, a national nonprofit literary organization,
marks its third year of support for reading and literacy among
children at the Cornell Elementary School, with renewed
funds and programming for the 2015-16 academic year.
Thanks to Book Trust, elementary students in the school
will receive up to three books per month books the students
choose themselves for up to 30 books over the course of
the school year.
Book Trust was created to get books to children from lowincome families; promoting reading and literacy. In areas of
poverty, the ratio of books to children is one book for every
300 children, a figure contributing to the reading gap between
low and middle-income families.
Each month, students receive funds to purchase books from
the Scholastic Reading Club flyer. The books are theirs to
keep and take home.
Studies prove book choice and ownership inspire a
childs passion for reading and contribute to strong literacy
skills and life-long learning, said Amy Friedman, Book
Trust president and CEO. Our goal is to ensure every child
gets to choose books of his or her own each month of the
school year. We know the act of choosing books ignites interest in reading, sparks conversations about reading among
kids and families, and helps cultivate a passion for reading
and learning.
Since 2013 Book Trust has delivered nearly 7,500 books
to students at Cornell Elementary. In the 2014-15 school year,
Book Trust reached close to 150 students.
Paul Schley, principal, says he is excited to welcome Book

Trust back to his school.


Kids read more when they love to read, says Schley.
They show more positive attitudes toward learning. This assists with promoting academic achievement. We love that
Book Trust helps us prepare a foundation for academic success by getting kids excited about reading.
Schools qualify for Book Trust, in part, based on the percentage of students receiving free or reduced lunch. When a
school is eligible for the program, all students within a participating class receive books.
Book Trusts support means we can help our kids develop
a love of books at an early age, said Schley. We can continue to offer our kids the ability to build home libraries. For
many of our students, this is the only chance they have to
own books. Thanks to Book Trust, we can help them develop
a love of books at an early age.

When a student is caught following expectations or going
above and beyond in the hallways, they are given a ticket by
a teacher or student council member.
Operation Bus is now in effect, and bus drivers have tickets
to give students when they see good behavior.
The tickets are collected and placed in hives across from
the office, and each Friday one student from each grade gets
their name drawn for a non-tangible award, including a positive visit with the principal, a positive phone call from home,
getting to eat lunch with their teacher, sitting at the teachers
desk or bringing an object from home to share with their
class.
This is meant to showcase the student and leave the message to them and their classmates that doing the right thing
feels good and is what should
be happening, said Riechers.
Each month at the assemblies, students who received
a ticket will have their name
put in a drawing. One student
from each grade whose name
is drawn will get to participate in a fun activity.
This month, the activity at
the assembly was a marshmallow toss.
Our goal is not to have to
provide punishments, said

approach to good behavior.

Good behavior in the hallways and on the buses is being
rewarded to students at Cadott Elementary School. In recognition of that, a pep assembly was held Oct. 8, in celebration
for a good month of Operation Hallways, and to kick off Operation Bus.
The Operations encourage positive behaviors in different
areas of the school, said Mindy Riechers, Cadott Elementary
student council adviser.
At the beginning of the year, students attended an assembly
that demonstrated appropriate behaviors in all areas of the
school. Students signed a passport, which was their promise
to do their best to follow the rules. Each month, a new location is added to focus on.
Next year, the hope is that we can focus on good behavior

Attitude makes the race


By Kayla Peche
The Cadott Hornets Cross Country team had a medal winning meet in Owen-Withee and one last race in Colby to prepare for next weeks race, which decides whos the best in
the Cloverbelt Conference.
Oct. 6 Owen-Withee Invitational
Tom Weiss, Cadott head coach, says the course was a bit
long, but it was a good day for the Hornets, and there was a
good effort by many of the runners.
At the Oct. 6 race in Owen-Withee, Cadott had two medal
winners, senior Elizabeth Kyes, who placed third, and junior
Bailey Nichols, who placed eighth. Out of the six schools
there, the Hornets girls and boys team both placed third, only
a few points behind second place Cornell-Lake Holcombe
and over 50 points behind winner McDonell.
Im really proud of my teams effort, said Kyes. I have
to give so much credit to my coaches. They always keep us
motivated and focused on our goals. And of course my dad,
our biggest cheerleader on the team, always keeps me pushing.
The remainder of the girls team finished in the top 20, with
sophomore Rachel Manier in 12th, freshman Megan Fasbender in 17th, junior Sam Pfeiffer in 18th and sophomore
Alexis Kramer in 19th.
Brandon Pederson led the Hornet boys in 11th place with
a time of 20:21. His classmates, Logan Freed and Tyler
Gillett, earned 15th and 17th, respectively.
Freshman James Pfeiffer took 21st, with sophomore Christian Wurzer in 26th and freshman Andy Hinzmann in 29th.
Freshman Zach Wojtczak and junior Keenan Hartzell finished out the pack in the top 30 spots.
Pederson says he expects his team to do well at conference,
and everyone needs to show up with the attitude they will not
lose.
I feel the pain in my body and legs, but I know that pushing that extra little bit and shaving just those few seconds off
my time may change my whole mindset about the race, he
said.
Oct. 10 Colby Invitational
Over the weekend, the Hornets traveled to Colby, where
the teams had another successful race, placing in sixth for the
girls and seventh for the boys.
Kyes finished in fourth place leading the Hornets with a
time of 22:37.7. Nichols earned 21st and Manier came in
27th. For the boys team, Pederson led the way again, finishing 25th, followed by Freed in 32nd.
We still have several runners either out with injury or
dinged up and trying to run through it, said Tom Weiss, as
the team prepares for conference. So, how are we going to
do? Goal is to be in the top 5-6 in conference, but this will
depend on who can compete at a 100 percent.
Cadott will compete in the Cloverbelt Conference meet at
Spencer Saturday, Oct. 17.

Team success equals individual triumph
By Kayla Peche
For the Cornell-Lake Holcombe Knights Cross Country
team, their season wouldnt be a success without each individual pushing each other to reach their goals.
I think my teammates have helped me prepare more than
anything Ive done on my own, said Sam Peterson, senior.
We have some really good guys on the team who push me
and the others a lot.
The team pushed Peterson all the way to a fourth place finish Oct. 5 at the Owen-Withee invitational. As a team, the
boys took second out of five other schools.
Peterson says during a race, if a Knight sees a teammate
ahead of them, the goal is to catch them, explaining why so
many land close to each other.
Freshman Luke Thompson took 18th with junior Kyle
Goltz directly behind; freshman Evan Dixon wasnt far behind in 22nd.
Junior Brandon Bintz finished in 25th, while senior Nick
Halpin, junior Nate Parkhurst and freshman Sam Larson
landed in the upper 30s.
With the conference meet right around the corner in Bruce,
Jake Ebner, head coach, says he is hoping to have the boys
and girls finish in the top four. The second meet of the season
(Aug. 31) was in Bruce, and the girls finished fifth while the
boys were in eighth.
Sam Peterson has really developed over the last couple
meets and has put himself in a good position to do well at

conference, said Ebner. Hopefully Lexi Moussette (senior)


can earn All-Conference for the third straight season, but the
girls field will be very tough at the conference meet this
year.
Moussette said she hopes for the same goal at conference,
and she has a good start by taking seventh out of 27 girls in
Owen-Withee at 24:19.6. Moussette is also one step closer
to reaching 2,000 high school career wins.
Im very excited about reaching 2,000 wins, and knowing
that Ionly have 65 more to go is amazing, she said. I do
think that I will reach it at conference.
The girls team finished second out of four other schools.
Sophomores Ashlynn Moore, Emily Vavra and Kierra Walters took 10th, 11th and 14th, respectively, and senior Kayla
Vavra finished in 15th.
K.Vavra, Moussette and Peterson say they are making the
most of their final year in cross country and have made many
great memories along the way with the team.
Im very proud of my whole team boys, girls and middle school, said Moussette. We definitely have come a long
way since the beginning of the season and at every meet
someone is always surprising us on how well they are improvingI cant wait to see the team next year and how
amazing they are going to be. They have some really good
talent coming up.
The Knights will see who wins All-Conference and how
well they do as a team Oct. 13 in Bruce.

Adjustments lead to win for Hornets


By Kayla Peche
After a successful weekend tournament, the Cadott Hornets Volleyball team returned to Cloverbelt Conference competition with two matches and another tournament.
Oct. 6 vs. Altoona
Traveling to Altoona Oct. 6, the Hornets started the night
behind in the first set, losing a quick 25-13. DeWayne Hanson, head coach, says the girls couldnt finish plays consistently to win.
We played hard and scrappy last night and caused Altoona
some problems, Hanson said. But we were not efficient
enough with our offense to be able to finish points. I was
happy with our effort though.
After losing the first set, Cadott came back in the second,
bringing the game to 26 points, but Altoona still won. Although the Hornets finished strong in the last two sets, it was
not enough to defeat Altoona, and Cadott lost 3-0.
With 23 kills over the weekend, senior Alexis Munroe says
she can get tired during a match, but still managed to lead
with six kills and 10 digs against the Railroaders.
Every swing has to be with strength like the first swing
of the night and with energy like it was match point, Munroe
said.
Sophomore Cailin Rineck, who led the Hornets with 15
assists, said it takes the whole team coming together to push
through and win a match. She says the girls stay positive
even after a loss, which motivates them for the next game.
We need a great pass to make a good set happen and get
a kill, she said. If our passing is on, we can go far as a team.
We all work well on picking each other up. If someone
has a positive attitude on the court, we all do.
Oct. 8 vs. Thorp
The positive attitude kept the girls alive Oct. 8 against the
Thorp Cardinals, helping the Hornets win after a four set battle. The night started slow with a 25-21 loss to the Cardinals,
but afterward, the Hornets refused to lose.
We just know that we work best together when we are all
supportive of each other, keeping each others heads up and
getting through it together, said Rineck. Never give up and
keep on playing.
In the second set, the scores stayed close until a kill from
Munroe broke the game open, keeping the ball on the Hornets side, 8-3. Thorp tried to come back with a few kills, but
Cadotts serving was on point to win 25-10.
We made a couple adjustments from the serving line
which led to us being able to keep them out of system so they
couldnt use their middle hitters as effectively, Hanson said.
As for Cadott, the team capitalized with their outside hitters (Munroe, and seniors Brittany Vitense and Brook Som-

merfeld), dominating on kills.


The Hornets also had four aces from Vitense and three
from sophomore Megan Holcomb, which kept the team
ahead for the last two sets (25-15, 25-20).
It was a good win for us on senior night, Hanson said.
Oct. 10 La Crosse Invitational
Hanson says the team looked tired at the La Crosse Logan
tournament Oct. 10, which led to an eighth place finish out
of 12 schools for Cadott.
The weekend started well in pool play with the Hornets
defeating Onalaska and La Crosse, but losing to St. Charles.
Placed in the silver bracket, Cadott couldnt get the momentum up for a win.
We didnt play particularly well for the second half of the
day, said Hanson.
I thought we

Ramping up for post season play


By Kayla Peche
As the regular season comes to a close, Beth Meddaugh,
Lake Holcombe volleyball head coach, says the girls are
working really hard on ramping up their game to prepare
for post season play.
Our goal is to maintain a high level of skills, communication, defense and offensive plays, she said.
Oct. 6 vs. Flambeau
The Chieftains started the week off right Oct. 6 against the
Flambeau Falcons. Junior player Hannah Lee, who led with
28 assists, said the team has been working on perfecting their
plays, which is definitely paying off.
Lake Holcombe hosted this match and honored breast cancer awareness month by each player wearing pink, along with
other fundraising during the game. Junior Ellie Dixon said the
team has been excited to have this annual game.
Thanks to the community who came out to support a great
cause and a great team, Dixon said. The energy in the gym
was contagious.
In the first set, the girls kept the lead throughout the game,
with senior Courtney Lundmark finishing out the final four
points with an ace to win, totaling six aces for the night.
Lundmark also led the Chieftains with 12 kills, which provided the team with points needed in the second and third sets.
During the second set, Lake Holcombe won, 25-13, after
sophomore Taylor Hartzell had a kill for the last point.
Hartzell was one of the dig leaders for the night with 17, as
senior Bailey Viegut led with 20 digs.

Senior Kareese Jiskra had six blocks, but it was one in the
third set that secured the 3-0 victory for the Chieftains against
Flambeau.
The girls are playing really well and the statistics have
been solid, said Meddaugh. Everyone on the team is contributing in a big way. The team is able to stay focused and
play their game, which has allowed us to successfully win sets
and matches.
Oct. 8 vs. Winter
Lake Holcombe hosted Winter Oct. 8 and added another
successful night into their books.
Lundmark led the Chieftains with 13 kills, 18 digs and eight
blocks toward their way to a 10-0 East Lakeland Conference
record. Jiskra had nine kills with six blocks, and senior Chase
Fronk had 16 digs.
The Chieftains defeated the Warriors in all three games (2516, 25-12 and 25-16) as they kept the lead throughout the sets.
Junior Hannah Lee earned 27 assists for the night on her
way to complete 1,500 career assists.
It is a big milestone that Ive been working for throughout
my high school career, said Lee. I knew I would have the
coaching staff and ability to reach this goal with the help of
my team.
We are planning to recognize this achievement at the last
regular season home game Thursday, Oct. 15, said Meddaugh.
Lake Holcombe traveled to Birchwood Oct. 13, and hosts
New Auburn Oct. 15 for their final regular game of the season.

All harvested deer will be registered electronically in 2015,


and hunters have three options for registering online at
gamereg.wi.gov; electronically at a participating in-person
registration station; or via telephone at 1-844-GAME-REG
(1-844-426-3734).
Registration via telephone requires callers to enter the first
three digits that correspond to the county of harvest. Only
one digit needs to be entered for each letter.
For example, Crawford County would be entered as 2-7-2
for C-R-A. The registration system will ask for clarification
if counties have a similar abbreviation.
A link to the electronic registration system is also available
through the Pocket Ranger application for mobile devices.
The WisDNR encourages deer hunters to look at the frequently asked questions page for
more information regarding
rule changes for 2015. The
FAQ feature provides responses to deer hunting questions, ranging from deer
management unit boundaries to
antlerless permits.
To view the FAQs and get more information on archery
and crossbow deer hunting, search keyword
deer at dnr.wi.gov.

CWD tests for Eau Claire


County and nearby deer
In cooperation with local businesses, the WisDNR will collect deer heads for chronic wasting disease surveillance testing during the 2015 archery and gun hunting seasons.
Hunters who harvest an adult deer within Eau Claire, Clark
or Jackson counties are asked to consider submitting a sample
from the deer for chronic wasting disease testing.
This summer, CWD was discovered in a captive whitetailed deer on a breeding farm in Eau Claire County. DNR
biologists will focus additional surveillance within a 10-mile
radius of where the positive captive deer was discovered.
Cooperating taxidermists and stations will collect head and
lymph node samples for testing. Those who harvest a deer
can bring the whole deer to a cooperator listed below, or simply remove the head with at least 3 inches of the neck attached.
CWD testing is free, and anyone submitting a head for testing will receive their results in three to four weeks. Please
call cooperators in advance to set up an appointment.
Lymph node samples will be collected at Badgerland Taxidermy, Neillsville, 715-743-3373.
Head samples can be dropped off at Burokers Taxidermy,
Eau Claire, 715-835-0847; Shooting Lane Taxidermy, Fall
Creek, 715-590-2040; The Woodland, Augusta, 715-2862112; Augusta Ranger Station, Augusta, 715-286-4340; Sell
Taxidermy, Augusta,715-286-5309; and Hixton Ridge Taxidermy, Hixton,715-299-5410.
In addition to CWD cooperators, hunters may also have
deer harvested within the 10-mile radius tested for CWD at
the Eau Claire Service Center, 715-839-3771 or 715-8393838; and at the Black River Falls Service Center, 715-2841403 or 715-284-1419. (On weekends or during warm
periods, hunters should remove the deer head and freeze it,
then contact DNR staff.)
DNR staff will also collect CWD samples from harvested
deer on opening weekend of the gun deer season at the Cenex
Gas Station, Fairchild,715-334-5901; and The Woodland.
Wisconsins citizens have played a key role in CWD sampling efforts throughout Wisconsin for many years, and department staff would like to thank all participants in advance
for their continued efforts, said Bill Hogseth, DNR wildlife
biologist in Eau Claire.
For more information regarding chronic wasting disease in
Wisconsin, search keyword CWD. Information regarding
collection stations will be available throughout the deer hunting season via the DNR website, dnr.wi.gov.

DNR Outdoor Report

Its a Girls Hunting Life


By: Monique Westaby

Youth Hunt: Anticipation


After the deer experience,
we all climbed into our respective vehicles and headed to check the baits my husband,
Scott, and I had freshened up a mere two hours prior.
As the season continues from early July to August, and
acorns fall and temperatures change, black bears change
their habits of what they eat, preparing for their upcoming
hibernation. Because of this, getting a bait hit decreases as
the kill season rolls around, including the Learn to Bear
Hunt just before the opener.
We drove around looking for any signs of bear, but all of
the rocks remained unmoved on top of the stumps. So we
tried the next best thing free casting into a cornfield.
Whats that? Well, you take a dog or two and walk around
a field, letting them follow you as you look for tracks or
signs, and they smell for scent. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt.
Free casting has a little more mystery because you dont
know how old the track may be, and if there is no track, how
big or small the bear may be. Lucky for us, this time the
dogs took out barking and we knew it couldnt be too old.
We hurried around to the south road, and lo and behold,
we saw the bear cross. It didnt look too huge, but we had a
first-time hunter who was more than excited to get his first
bear.
The dogs had jumped the animal just north of the road,
so they were hot on its tail. We turned the rest of the dogs,
making it six on the chase. (Yes, six, we had a warden with
us making sure.)
Scott put our walker dog, Grace, into the mix, but she
wasnt too impressed with all the commotion so she headed
back to the truck.
A short while later it sounded like the dogs had the bear
treed, but the GPS said otherwise and pretty soon the beepers were going off and the dogs were
treed. Lucky for the hunter, unlucky
for me, as it was 900 yards off the
road.
I looked at four-week-old
Chase strapped into his
seat and I knew I was
going to sit this one
out. I would just have
to wait until everyone
returned to see how
big the bear was.

Fall color is now near peak in some areas of far northern


Wisconsin. Colors are slower to turn through central and
southern Wisconsin, but some bright red is seen in maples, and
yellows in birch and locusts.
Many water bodies still run slightly low and temperatures
remain in the high 50s to low 60s.
Fishing success has slowed in the northwoods. Though primary pressure has been on musky and walleye, anglers have
reported variable success.
Hunters, particularly in the southwestern counties, have reported pre-rut activity picking up with white-tailed bucks chasing does, along with scrapes and rubs seen. Fawn production
in many areas of the state was good this summer and deer are
in good condition as they prepare for winter.
Soybean harvest is wrapping up and corn harvest is underway, opening more area to hunters.
Cleared fields are revealing strong turkey broods.
The outlook for geese, ducks and other waterfowl is looking
up, with some teal still taken. Good wood duck numbers are
reported in the south and more migratory geese have arrived.

In a Horicon National Wildlife Refuge airboat survey, approximately 68,000 ducks and geese were counted on the
refuge.
Sandhill crane numbers are close to peak at Crex Meadows
State Wildlife Area, with several thousand in the area providing great viewing opportunities.
Songbird migration is past peak and new arrivals include
fox sparrow, rusty blackbird and bonapartes gulls.

An Outdoorsmans Journal By Mark Walters


Mississippi River Duck Hunt 2015

Hello friends,
You know that you have been walking this earth for a
while when you can say you have been duck hunting at the
same place for 44 years.
This week I am writing about my annual camping on an
island, and hunting ducks with family and friends near
Lansing, Iowa/Ferryville, Wis. experience.
This trip is one of my most intense when it comes to gear
required and energy used by the body and brain.
Friday, Oct. 2 High 73, Low 51
I saw wild rice driving south on Highway 35 and throughout the day while on the backwaters of this stretch of river.
It is becoming common as it is in a lot of other bodies of
water in Wisconsin.
This years gang was made up of my 14-year-old daughter, Selina, my nephews, Trent and Riley Schuster, and their
dad Dick Schuster, Cole Koepp, who grew up with Trent
and Riley, Conrad Wandler, who is 18 and has been absolutely chomping at the bit to take part on this trip, and
last but not least, my new wrestling partner, Troy Ringelstetter, who arrived Saturday.
Selina and I would travel by canoe, and my 18-foot War
Eagle would be our duck blind. And let me tell you folks, it
was comfortable.
So today, Selina and I built a blind with willow branches
and watched gazillions of woodies, teal and Canada geese.
All we could think about was Saturday mornings half hour
before sunrise opener.
I actually went to bed at 10:30, which is very early for
me, and all I could do until I got up at 3:30 was think about
ducks and 44 years worth of opening days.
Saturday, Oct. 3 High 68, Low 46
Selina and I were at duck central at 4:30 and had nothing
to do but wait. Actually, Selina slept for a half hour and I
stood in the water, then realized my chest waders have a
leak, resulting in wet feet until I took the waders off 15
hours later.
We had neighbors and they had Sherman Tanks with mud
motors that seemed to still work in an inch of water. Our
closest neighbors had set up no more than 50 yards away,

and there were five guys together.


I cannot say a bad thing about them or the other folks who
hunted close; everyone was very polite.
So the war began as daylight took over and after Selinas
first shot, her 12-gauge went down hard. I pulled out an
extra gun, the firing pin broke and we had problems.
Seventy minutes later I had our guns fixed and for the
next two hours, Selina and I did very poorly as far as hitting
ducks in the air.
Meanwhile, about 200 yards away Cole and Conrad had
shot their limit of woodies and teal, and were back in camp
by 8 a.m.
Riley and Trent were not shooting much and Dick, who
was using a fishing pole instead of a gun, was on his way
to a 25-fish limit of jumbo perch.
Later in the day, as I told Selina would happen, we both
found our shot and our trusty pup, Fire, ensured we did not
lose one duck.
Sunday, Oct. 4 High 61, Low 41
Sunday is the best day of this trip for those who get to
stay until Monday. We hunt ducks, eat good meals cooked
over the campfire and stay up really late.
At about 9ish I announced to the gang that everyone had
to stay up until 4:38 in the morning. I have no idea where
that came from but it became my theme for the night.
We cooked just meat and grazed all night. Troy fell asleep
around the campfire, and his buddies took some unfavorable pictures of him and sent them out for the whole world
to see.
Troy, who is quite possibly bigger than anyone on the
Green Bay Packers team, tried going to bed at 2:34 and that
was against my 4:38 rule. I proceeded to beat the bajeezas
out of him, and when he had enough, he kicked the youknow-what out of me.
For all my efforts, I made it until 4:32, which was six
minutes ahead of schedule.
Riley and Cole fell asleep next to the fire and woke up to
another fire. Coles knee boots, which were still on his feet,
were a little too close to the flame and one of them was
burning big time.
Not much has changed in 44 years.

Thank you for


reading the paper

Getting a well maintained home ready for winter isnt difficult, but its wise to start early, say experts at the Paint Quality
Institute. They recommend homeowners tackle five simple
projects as soon as possible.
Together, they can help protect homes from the elements,
make it more comfortable, and help prevent expensive repair
bills next spring.
Touch up exterior paint. Peeling or flaking paint can expose bare wood, subjecting it to moisture and possible rotting.
Scrape off any loose paint, sand the surface smooth and prime
the bare wood. Apply one or two coats of acrylic latex paint.
Dont ignore rust spots. If iron doors, railings, or fences
show signs of rust, correct the problems as soon as possible.
Use a scraper and/or wire brush to remove the rust, rinse away
any particles that remain and prime the surfaces as soon as they
are dry. Complete the work by applying two coats of acrylic
latex paint.
Caulk cracks and gaps. Any openings in a homes exterior
are not only energy sieves, but also serve as inviting entry
points for insects and mice. Deal with both concerns by sealing
cracks, gaps and open seams with a paintable top quality
acrylic caulk.
Keep out cold and moisture. Storm windows and storm
doors are essential defenses against wind, rain, snow and cold
air. Put up storm windows and doors early, they will help pay
for themselves through lower energy bills and tax credits.
Clean the gutters. Keep a sound roof by removing leaves,
pine needles and other debris from rain gutters. Trapped water
may form harmful ice dams that can damage roofing shingles and create leaks.

Animal abuse addressed in new equine program


By Ginna Young
Some may find caring for a horse to be a daunting challenge, but thats where the Doggone Ranch Youth Equine
Program comes in. Because the ranch has multiple rescue animals, owner Brenda Schwark decided to offer a free program
instructing youth how to live with, and care for, horses.
I did horse rescue on my own for years, said Schwark.
Its not that people are purposely cruel, theyre just ignorant.
People need to learn so horses dont end up in rehab.
After asking around the last few months, Schwark found
there were about 15 kids around the state who were interested
in the program. Some wanted to learn how to care for a horse
or to ride, while others already have horses and wished to
learn more.
What the program is about is preventing animal abuse and

cruelty, said Schwark. It doesnt do any good to just learn


how to get on a horse, you have to learn to take care of them.
The program will run the first Sunday of each month at 3
p.m. at the Doggone Ranch on County Highway E, west of
Cornell. Each session lasts about two hours and covers the
basics of horse care, such as grooming, handling and equine
first aid.
Schwark also plans to have professional barrel racers,
shooters and ropers come to the sessions to demonstrate technique and dedication to the horses.
My advice is to watch how horses move around with each
other how they communicate, said Schwark. The stuff
you really need to learn makes you understand them. Where
knowledge ends, frustration begins.
Students can bring their own horses to the sessions, as long
as the horse is healthy. Schwark also insists proper footwear
be worn at all times, and that riders clean up after themselves
and their horses.
Im hoping more people get interested, said Schwark. I
want to educate people to prevent horses ending up in kill
pens. If you keep your horse healthy and happy, itll make
you happy.
To sign up for the program, open to all ages, contact
Brenda at 715-288-5897.

be afraid of around Hickory, a 28-year-old rehab

used to instruct youth on the basics and proper
care of equine at a program west of Cornell.

own horse, but her father says she must learn what
that entails before making that decision. Because

teach horse owners/riders basic care to prevent animal neglect and cruelty. (Photo by Ginna Young)

Although the wind was against the fire department, it was


in favor for the chickens in a coop near the garage. Because
of the heavy gusts, it kept the fire burning just far enough
away that the animals were safe. Once crews arrived on
scene, a hole was cut in the fence and the animals were let
out.
They were rounding up the chickens when we left, said
Klass.
A dog also made it out OK, thanks to the quick thinking
of a local city worker. John Westaby, utility/public works supervisor for the city, who heard the call, and headed to the
scene.
At that point the fire was still in the garage, and because
the front door was open, Westaby went in to make sure no
one was home and the pets werent inside. He saw the dog,
who was scared to move, and coaxed it out the door and into
the bed of his truck.
I drive by that dog every day, said Westaby. I wasnt
going to let it die.
Westaby stayed with the dog until a neighbor arrived and

took the pet back to their house. A cat also made it out OK,
said Klass, and several deer mounts were removed by firefighters from the walk-out basement before getting damaged
by the fire or water.
Between fire, smoke and water damage, Klass says the
house is pretty much a total loss, rendering it unlivable.
I took four quilts from the Ladies Auxillary to her (Andersons) sisters, said Klass the morning after the fire.
Shes pretty shook up still.
Anderson didnt wish to talk about the fire prior to deadline, but a source close to her says she has a lot of family
supporting her and getting her what she needs.
