The bright spot that is drug court JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

“Wow, a full house today,” Judge Melissia Mogen said as she walked into her courtroom for drug court last week. Many of the people were participants, or “part of the team,” as Mogen puts it. Many were excited for the graduation of Lois Keenan.

The Burnett County Drug court program had its sixty-fourth graduation April 11.

Keenan joked she was willing to sleep in the parking lot overnight in anticipation of graduating from the drug court program.

Before the session started one of the team members leaned over to tell Keenan, “I’m so excited for you.” And Keenan was beaming with excitement herself.

The session was wrapping up when Mogen called the soon-to-be graduate up and asked her how she was doing.

“Wonderful, glorious, magnificent,” Keenan responded, still beaming.

“Thank you to everyone in this room.”

Mogen told Keenan, “I am so proud of you. You have made drastic and substantial changes in your life.

“Lois, when you came here with your Washburn County cases, that’s not the Lois I see here today,” Mogen said, referring to a possession of methamphetamine charge.

Mogen gave Keenan her certificate along with a quilt and a button that

Driver in roundabout accident dies a week later JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

SIREN–– A Minnesota man involved in a police chase and accident in Siren has died, according to the Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office.

David Friel, 61, Finlayson, Minnesota, was driving a truck that was fleeing a

traffic stop in the Village of Siren April 5, and seven days later was pronounced dead at North Memorial Hospital in Robbinsdale, Minnesota, according to the police report.

Siren Police Chief Chris Sybers said it was not clear what caused Friel’s death

and he is waiting to receive the medical records from Hennepin County.

Friel was charged with operating while intoxicated following the accident at the roundabout in Siren.

According to the police report, Siren police officer Aaron Bentley saw a red 2000 Dodge Dakota speeding through Crooked Lake Park April 5 at 4:36 p.m. Bentley turned on his emergency lights and pulled the truck over north of the park on State Road 35/70.

Bentley noted both occupants of the truck were not wearing their seat belts. David Friel was driving and Jason Friel, 27, Webster, was in the passenger seat.

When asked to provide identification both Jason and David allegedly said they did not have any ID on them and Bentley continued to write down their information. David initially said his name was Ron Friel while Bentley was standing outside of the passenger side door.

Bentley asked if they had been drinking, and both allegedly said no. “Both occupants’ body behavior indicated they were more than likely lying to me,” Bentley’s report states. He added that he could smell intoxicants coming from the vehicle.

Dashcam video from Bentley’s patrol car shows Bentley walking to the rear of the truck when the brake lights turned on and the truck sped away at approximately 4:40 p.m.

Bentley called in the attempt to flee and began following the truck northbound on 35/70. He caught up with the vehicle going approximately 95 mph. The truck attempted to “brake check” the officer near the intersection of Woodland Estates Drive. In the video, there is a large amount of smoke coming from the passenger side tires. The truck then sped up to about 90 mph as the chase continued.

St. Croix Tribal Police assisted on the call and were able to pull a squad car into the turn lane by Fourwinds Market. David swerved to avoid the car and continued driving toward the roundabout.

He struck the curb and was driving on the grassy median before turning suddenly and narrowly missing a light pole.

The truck then struck the curb of the roundabout and went straight over the middle of the roundabout. It came to a stop, and that is when Bentley noticed the truck’s front

end was collapsed with smoke coming from it. Bentley said he could hear the engine revving and assumed the driver was attempting to accelerate.

At 4:42 p.m. Bentley pulled up to the front of the truck, exited his car, and asked David if he was drunk, and David allegedly responded yes.

Two trauma nurses arrived on the scene and were trying to assist with David’s injuries when he became belligerent and continued to resist.

Bentley had double-cuffed David to give him extra room because he did not know the extent of his potential injuries.

David was airlifted to North Memorial in Robbinsdale, Minnesota. The Hennepin County Medical Examiner’s Office notified Siren PD that he was pronounced dead seven days later at 12:55 p.m. April 12.

Jason Friel was checked out by the North Memorial Ambulance crew and was slightly injured, but was still able to fill out a statement. In the statement, Jason admits he and David were coming from a bar in Frederic and were headed to another bar.

“Cop was asking for ID, then David took off,” Jason wrote. The statement concluded with Jason saying during the chase he put his seat belt on and “thought I might die in the chase.”

stated, “You’re braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”

Keenan made a brief speech to the judge on how she has built up her self-esteem in drug court while maintaining her sobriety. She does it in three ways; she prays, exercises, and gives herself affirmations on a daily basis.

Before Keenan graduated the other participants of the program sat and chatted with Judge Mogen. She asks them how they are doing, how their

community service is going and they just have an open conversation about sobriety and life.

“It’s important that you put you first and your sobriety first in your life,” Mogen tells one participant. “Everybody here wants you to succeed and to achieve your goals in drug court.”

She adds, “This is not an easy program, is it? It’s very hard, but I am proud of you. All of you.”

Mogen asks team members how their group sessions are going and about their one on one counseling.

Each team member ends their time with Mogen answering the same ques-

tion, “How long have you been sober?”

And whether it’s 22 or 586 days sober the entire courtroom roars with applause from friends, family members, and supporters of drug court.

The event was concluded with comments from Supervisor Gene Olson, who has sat on the drug court for over a year. He said after serving on the county board for over 16 years the last few when he has been involved with drug court have been by far the most fulfilling.

“I am so proud of all these participants,” Olson said. “Thank you all for this wonderful program.”

Lois Keenan was all smiles after she became the most recent graduate of Burnett County’s Drug Court Program.

Wisconsin resident who appreciates the outdoors and recognizes the economic value of the recreational resources the region offers. She serves on the Agriculture, Small Business, and Tourism Committees.

“The nature in Burnett County is something everybody needs to know about,” said Schachtner. “Much of what is available in the county is free: hiking, bicycling, boating, Patty paddling, swimming.

Schachtner Those experiences are what people want toDistrict 10 day.” As a grandmother with 10 grandchildren, Senator she noted, “Parents wantt tto go somewhere that’s safe and affordable.”

Roads, she said, must be good. “Roads are the first impression of a place.” She added, “There needs to be access to the internet. If there’s spotty or no access to the internet at a campground, people will leave.” She urged listeners to contact their legislators if their area needs broadband.

Schachtner also pointed out the unique opportunity to entice people to find their dream homes so close to the Twin Cities.

“Develop this area as a ‘cool spot’ to live: affordable, safe, technology, good roads – there’s nothing we can’t do,” she said, adding, “the governor wants to invest more in tourism.”

There were comments and questions from the floor that addressed highway safety issues related to the Department of Transportation. Someone asked about the relationship between tourism and the Department of Natural Resources. What has priority, trails or Chronic Wasting Disease? “If we lose the deer, we lose the hunting,” Schachtner said.

She went on to explain that healthy deer are important for providing a protein source and combating hunger.

Trails are important too, for silent sports as well as year-round motorized use. “It’s a balancing act between hunting and trails,” she admitted. She and her family have enjoyed hunting for generations.

One person asked what inspired Schachtner to run for office. She said she was asked three times to run and said “no.” “Then my kids told me ‘You said ‘when an opportunity comes, jump on it’ – they listened!” Her surprise garnered laughter.

The agenda also included a presentation by Nicki Peterson. She and her husband, Ben, own the recently opened brewery in Grantsburg. She helped formed the Grantsburg Revitalization Operation with a mission of luring drivethrough travelers off State Road 70 to their downtown district. Other community-centered and beautification projects are planned for the future. “Since we opened the brewery, five more downtown business buildings are being purchased,” said Peterson.

The next quarterly BCTC general memberhsip meeting is July 10. Public comments and suggestions regarding tourism are welcome. Email burnettcountyfun@ gmail.com. Visit burnettcountyfun.com to find information about businesses and happenings in Burnett County.

None of us are the center of the universe

Social media is ruining us as human beings. Politics have become too much of our identity.

I read a column the other day titled “Dear Abby: Politics put a sudden end to a 20-year-old friendship.”

And guess what? It centered around a social media post and the last presidential election.

Disclaimer: my only friendships that have lasted 20 years are with family members and the first kids I met when we moved to the suburbs when I was in the second grade.

The “Dear Abby” writer posted something on social media about the election. Whatever opinion they put on social media was seen by others as “a personal attack and (they) stepped out of my life without warning.”

Sentinel I have friends who disagree with me on politics, who doesn’t?

Editor Politics, money, and religion – Jonathan Richie those are the three topics never to be discussed if you want to avert a disaster with friends. At least that’s what I have been told.

I don’t know how true that is, but it’s what people say.

I have friends who are Catholic, Baptist, Buddhist, agnostic, and even atheists. We never discuss the afterlife and who will end up burning in hell and it works for us.

My only concern is weddings. I love a good Lutheran wedding, quick and easy. Not like those Catholic weddings that last half the day. (Please laugh, that was a joke) Back to social media and its ruination of our lives. Whether it’s Myspace, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Snapchat or whatever some tech head in sunny California is dreaming up to launch in the future and take over young people’s lives, they all do the same thing – make the user feel like they are the center of the universe.

“This website gave me a platform. I am connected to the whole world and everyone needs to know what I am doing, what I think about this thing, and also that I hate these things, and you need to know right now.”

Facebook, especially, is a virtual cesspool of political ideology – from both sides.

We all understand the polarization of national politics right now. We are more divided than we ever have been as a nation, is what a number of baby boomer editorials have said. Then they say, but we have much more in common with each other than differences. I tend to agree with that sentiment.

I have been told I’m an idealist in this way. When, in fact, I think I’m 20 percent idealist and the other half is a realist. (Yogi Berra-style joke) Take it from a young person, politics should not be ruining lifelong friendships.

No thanks, Mr. Postman My late father, Arved Stangl (aka “The Chief”) gets mentioned in this space many times. As the fifth of six children, I was witness to many lessons taught by my father that have stayed with me. I believe some of the reactions are hard wired into my DNA, so when situations arise, I simply switch into “Arved” mode.

The Chief was not a fan of popular culture. His favorite movie star was John Wayne. He adored Lawrence Welk. I could probably still sing Welk’s sign off song “Adios, Au Revoir, Auf Wiedersehen,” but I won’t From the put you through the trauma. Any Publisher’s time he saw anyone performing that he didn’t “get,” his reaction was to Desk place a bemused expression on his Tom Stangl face and remark “They pay them good money for that?”

I’ll admit to using the phrase a time or two myself.

When I came across a recent item about a retailer’s new fashion line, the thought entered my head.

It seems the United States Postal Service (USPS) is licensing its logos for a new line of clothing sold by retailer Forever 21. Among the garments splashed with USPS logos are “Express” and “Priority” joggers and cropped tanks, a hooded windbreaker covered in USPS mailing labels, and a belt covered in USPS bar codes. There’s a “Priority” tube top as well as a biking uniform, which features blue bike shorts and a yellow tank top that has the USPS logo on it.

Writing for Fast Company, where I read news of this new fashion line, author Elizabeth Segran points out that the biking ensemble bears more than a passing resemblance to the ones worn by Lance Armstrong when he was on the professional team sponsored by USPS. “In 2010, Armstrong and his teammates were accused of defrauding the U.S. government by doping while sponsored, forcing Armstrong to pay $5 million

to settle the case. Is the USPS being self-referential to the point of self-parody?” Segran writes.

In an official statement, USPS’ brand marketing executive Chris Karpenko said, “The collaboration will generate royalty revenue for the Postal Service, and build brand awareness among a younger audience.”

Segran points out that Generation Z and Millennials, who comprise Forever 21’s target market, grew up with the internet and are among the folks who rarely use the postal service.

Photos of the items show a zippered clutch bag with the Priority Mail logo and reflective trim jackets similar to what letter carriers might wear, but make no mistake, these items are not to be worn while sorting mail.

USPS’ Karpenko says in the release “This collection is not part of the official USPS uniform and should not be worn by postal employees while on duty. Managers and supervisors can use Postal Uniform Guidelines, a pictorial guidebook that USPS released last year, to help ensure employees wear their uniforms properly.

“Our employees are welcome to show their postal pride by wearing officially licensed USPS apparel, but they should do so in their free time,” Karpenko said.

I’m really glad he added that. I would hate to see someone sorting mail while wearing the $12.90 “Priority” tube top.

I get that the postal service is trying to make a buck wherever and whenever they can, but as a business customer who depends on them exclusively for delivery, I would rather they focus on delivering on time.

And yes, we do pay them good money for that.

Guarding Your Right To Know Since 1875

The Burnett County Sentinel was the county’s first newspaper when Matthew Westcott began publishing on Feb. 19, 1875. The Sentinel continued weekly until its building and presses were destroyed by fire in 1909. The business was sold to its competitor. The Journal changed its name to “Journal and Sentinel”, but later reverted to the Journal of Burnett County. When the Journal folded in 1962, Wilbur A. Nelson revived the Burnett County Sentinel. Following his death in 1975, his wife, Marjorie Nelson and son, Gary Nelson operated it until Feb. 1, 1994, when it was purchased by Mainstream Publications. It was then purchased by Eugene Johnson on Dec. 1, 1998.

THE CAPITOL REPORT

Neubauer defeat dashes liberals’ hope for Supreme Court majority Lisa Neubauer conceded to Brian Hagedorn on April 10, a week after Democrats woke to a shocking result.

Liberals and Democrats had a money advantage, a template from Rebecca Dallet’s big court victory in 2018, and a turnout boost through various school spending referendums, contested mayoral races in Madison and Green Bay, and a Democratic primary in the Kenosha seat once held by former Assemblyman Peter Barca.

On top of that, the traditional conservative coalition that had helped engineer a solid court majority for the right fell apart over Hagedorn’s controversial past writings on gays.

But grassroots conservatives, the state GOP, and late money from out of state woke up the Christian right and the WOW counties around Milwaukee to give Hagedorn a narrow upset win.

Hagedorn, age 41, will take over for longtime liberal Justice Shirley Abrahamson, 85, who is dealing with cancer and decided against seeking another

10-year term. She had been on the high court since 1976.

So, Hagedorn not only takes Abrahamson’s seat to the delight of conservatives, who have railed against her for years, but he dashes the hopes of liberals, who had dreams of taking back the court majority.

Dallett’s win got liberals closer to a 4-3 edge. Then Neubauer was supposed to keep Abrahamson’s seat. And in 2020, when Democrats statewide turn out for a presidential primary, they would complete the task by dispatching Justice Daniel Kelly, appointed to the court

by Scott Walker. Republicans were so fearful of this scenario that they even thought about changing the date of the spring elections next year.

That liberal dream is now kaput.

When Hagedorn gets sworn in this summer, the conservative court majority will be back to 5-2 and give conservatives a cushion should Kelly lose.

The win was narrow — some 6,000 votes — but enough for a liberal loss.

This can be added to the list of “what ifs” that includes Hillary Clinton in 2018 and JoAnne Kloppenburg in 2011.

“Judge Hagedorn said that he was running to get partisan influences out of our courts, and I hope he lives up to his promise,” Neubauer said. “Our courts are strongest when politics are set aside, and we follow the law regardless of personal views.”

In a message to supporters, Hagedorn said he was “deeply humbled and grateful.” Throughout the campaign, he said a justice should “say what the law is, not what the law should be,” that partisan politics have no place at the court, and he would uphold the constitution as written.

“I meant every word, and I will endeavor to fulfill these promises with all my ability,” said Hagedorn, a former Walker aide appointed by the then-governor to the state appeals court in 2015.

Neubauer spokesman Tyler Hendricks said she won’t run for the state Supreme Court next year, when Kelly is up for a

full 10-year term. She will look instead at seeking another six-year term to the 2nd District Court of Appeals, where she served alongside Hagedorn.

TV numbers shared with WisPolitics. com, and a check of filings with the state Ethics Commission detailing independent expenditures show outside groups backing Neubauer outspent those supporting Hagedorn by nearly 2-to-1. Still, Neubauer bemoaned the role of outside money, saying she hoped future races would see less influence from “outside special interests.”

The Republican State Leadership Committee’s Judicial Fairness Initiative spent more than $1.2 million over the last week of the race on TV, digital ads, mail, and other advertising backing Hagedorn.

“With more than $1 million poured in against me with false and misleading attacks in the final week alone, it’s not hard to imagine that is what made the difference,” Neubauer said.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Joint Committee on Finance, we need your help to save our lakes.

Dear Editor, I want to share my experience regarding three rezones from the last 15 years, on 126-acre Little Trade Lake. As often happens, when large lake-shore owners sell their land, in comes an out-of-area developer who wants to build new homes every 100 feet. As lake residents, we want them at 300 feet intervals. We start a petition to be signed by lake-shore homeowners, then we go to County Zoning to express our concerns.

The compromise for all three rezones has been 200 feet. What is going on? By State law the County budget can only be increased by new development. Where is the most development?

Lake shore properties.

The problem is, that method of funding does not change. Please give our State tax dollars back to the counties like a Cost of Living Adjustment, indexed to inflation. Our counties know best about where to spend our dollars. Not doing this causes a local civil war.

I found the emphasis is always on the land.

When is the lake’s water quality considered?

This should be the first item considered before land is ever looked at. The lake I live on is on the federal Impaired Waters list. Why? Increased phosphorus and chlorine caused by run-off on developed land increases by a factor of five.

If a lake has invasive weeds, which all lakes on the Trade River chain have, we get water quality levels that cause our property values to

Earth Day

go down. Notifying all concerned property owners should be the norm. Rezone notices seem to appear only in the Sentinel newspaper, which is very limiting.

Lake Associations, why we need them. There exist special interest groups with a focus on water quality, habitat, and safety. A member from said group should be an adviser to the zoning pre-evaluation process presented to the land use committee before every rezone regarding water quality.

The only item I disagree with is taxing a lake- district, which puts the burden on local taxpayers. We live in a high tax state. Our Reps. in Madison like to spend our dollars on high risk ventures that shortchange counties, towns, schools, and lake associations. For lake cleanup, we, the locals, are required to write a grant that also requires a 25 percent local match. It looks like Madison’s goal is to put us all into poverty.

Counties need to get back the lake classification component, as current law treats all lake sizes the same. In reality each lake and its surroundings require individual assessments of impact on all natural resources. We have 11,981 10 acre, named lakes that require more care than grouping them as one-size-fits-all. We hope you agree and support our request.

I am for our lakes and rivers, along with all the people who enjoy them.

Rich Hess Trade Lake, for 50 years

Dear Editor, As we approach the 49th Anniversary of Earth Day, most of us do things to help protect our environment and are learning to recycle everything we possibly can. But, many are not “recycling” the most important things -- our organs. There are currently almost 114,000 individuals in the United States waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant; 2,100 of them are in Wisconsin.

Sadly, on the average, 20 individuals die every day because there is no organ available for them. Each year there are many individuals who could have been organ donors, but because they had not designated their wishes during their lifetime, their loved ones declined the opportunity to donate.

If those individuals had registered to donate, many more lives would have been saved. Our daughter, Karlynn, believed that “life is a gift to share” and because of her decision to register to be a donor, five people received the gift of life they had been waiting for. Karlynn was 28 years old, married to the love of her life for six years, and the mother of a five month old son, our first grandchild. As donor parents, the heartache of our loss is with us every day, but we are so proud of Karlynn’s decision to help others.

April is Donate Life Month, what better time to choose to help others? For more information and to register online visit www.donatelifewisconsin.org. Please take time to learn about donation and document your wishes -- and be sure to let your family know. One way or another, every one does make a decision, we hope you choose to help others.

Winter budget hit hard by late season storm JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

BURNETT COUNTY––As the April blizzard was looming and preparing to hit, Burnett County Highway Commissioner Mike Hoefs gave preliminary winter budget numbers from this season through March.

“We were hit hard by a tough winter this year,” Hoefs told the Infrastructure committee last week.

“For the most part, it wasn’t terrible until February and the first part of March.”

Hoefs said they had budgeted for $450,000 in snow removal costs. He reported that up to the end of March they had spent $584,000. At the March meeting he had reported a total of $520,000 in snow removal costs.

These numbers did not include the April winter storm, but those numbers should be available at their May meeting.

Hoefs told the committee he was able to have crews do a bit of shoulder reclaiming in late March and early April before the snow hit last week.

Chris Sybers was pleased with the work and said it “looks nice,” and Hoefs said he was glad to get at least some of it done before the snow returned. Most of the work was done on Highway 70.

DOT improvement plan Hoefs said the Wisconsin Department of Transportation recently released their six-year improvement

plan. They were seal coating State Highway 77 from State Road 35 to Deer Lake Road, which is scheduled for this summer.

In 2021 they are planning a bridge rehabilitation project on State Highway 77 and the Minnesota state line. It is a concrete overlay project. They are planning a similar project on the State Road 70 bridge at the Minnesota state line for 2022.

Hoefs explained that at a recent conference he “gave the DOT a piece of my mind on their planning process.” He was dissatisfied with their process and the decisions that were made at the DOT. There was a lot of discussion of the potential project in Siren on State Road 35/70 from the roundabout to Bacon Street. The resurfacing is scheduled to begin in 2025. Although it is scheduled to start in six years, Hoefs said there is a possibility it could be bumped up.

“Our project on Highway 35 from out here to Webster was bumped up,” Hoefs said of the chip-seal work done on State Road 35 from County Road K to County Road A in August. “That wasn’t originally scheduled for last year, but DOT bumped it up and we got it done last summer.”

There were questions on whether they would upgrade the stormwater pipes beneath the road.

Sybers was questioning if the road will make it to 2025. He cited the road flooding by the Pour House and Dairy Queen every time the Village of Siren receives more than an inch of rain.

“The whole road floods from the (stop) light all the way to the Dairy Queen,” Sybers said. He believes the

No change in referendum recount JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

Siren School District held a recount for their second referendum question.

There was no change in the vote totals, meaning the question regarding building new athletic facilities has failed.

Siren Superintendent Kevin Shetler said there was no difference in the vote totals from the initial results from the April election. There were

333 votes in favor of moving the football field and rebuilding the track and 336 against.

The first question of the referendum on improvements passed with 440 ‘yes’ votes and 233 ‘no’ votes. That referendum is slated to cost no more than $4 million.

The improvements to the school will be updates for security concerns, including making the entrances to the school more secure and increasing learning space in the middle school.

Beaver dams cleared at County airport JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

BURNETT COUNTY—Chuck Shultz, Airport Manager reported to the infrastructure committee that five separate beaver dams were cleared from the airport in Meenon after an extensive drainage ditch clearing.

Shultz first told the committee about the beaver problem in December. At that time, they brought in the services of Mike Rod of Falun to handle the problem, and they were able to clear a few dams and trapped four beavers.

Rod said it was a common problem in the county. He added the beavers were living in the 30 to 40-acre area surrounding the airport. Shultz told the committee last year the problem was creating water issues on the airfield.

Shultz’s monthly report continued with an update on a few hangars at the airport.

“Hangar 8 is going to be torn down and then they’re going to rebuild it,” Shultz said. “It’s one of four old ones out there on the south side.”

Chris Sybers described Hangar 8 as the one that is “leaning” out there.

“They are rebuilding the whole structure, but will be keeping the concrete slab,” Shultz said. “It will be 40 by 60 feet.”

One of the committee members asked about the occupancy of the hangars and wondered if any were available. Shultz explained there are currently no vacant hangars at the airport.

County Administrator Nate Ehalt interjected that there is room to build near the hangars if it becomes a necessity.

“We have expansion plans if we ever get to that point in time,” Ehalt said.

“I’m not sure when we’ll get there, but there is room to build.”

Shultz concluded his report with their new windsock. The former windsock was damaged during one of the winter storms. He said Tiger Manufacturing, a section of Webster’s Tech-Ed department, rebuilt the airport’s windsock.

He added, “it’s pretty cool.”

Another successful timber bids opener JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

GOVERNMENT CENTER–– Burnett County Forests is slated to bring in over $690,000 from the spring timber bids opening, almost $200,000 over the minimum bid amount.

Forest Administrator Jake Nichols, along with Susan Tollander and Keri Letch, of the Forest and Parks Department, took time during the Natural Resources meeting to carefully lay out the bids for the 14 tracts that were up for bid last Thursday. Two of the tracts received no bids and a third tract

received one bid, but it did not meet the minimum bid requirement.

The total received for the 11 Burnett County Forest tracts on the docket was $690,531.47, and the minimum amount for all 14 tracts was $493,356.30.

Supervisor Gene Olson questioned Nichols about whether or not the committee could accept the bid for the single tract if it did not meet the minimum amount. The bid was around $500 below the minimum bid amount.

Nichols explained that state statute says they cannot accept the bid if it does not meet the minimum amount.

SOFTEC Education launches simulation-based heavy equipment operator program SIREN–– SOFTEC Education, a Wisconsin-based 501(c)(3) nonprofit provider of workforce training, has launched its first Industry Certified CAT simulation-based heavy equipment operator program.

“Our pilot program trains students how to operate heavy machinery, including Caterpillar front end loaders, Tracked Feller Bunchers, and Advanced Excavators using a virtual reality-based platform,” said Tim D’Jock, SOFTEC’s executive director. “Each of our students is slated to complete the 180 hour program in less than eight weeks, and earn an Industry Certified Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act (WIOA) credential, which is cross-walked with traditional equipment training and occupational safety principles. At that point, our students are expected to be worksite ready.”

Ongoing Industry networking and an in-house job fair will introduce both trainees and Industry leaders at the conclusion of the course; partners include Hopkins Sand & Gravel (Webster) and Evergreen Landscaping and Irrigation (Siren).

SOFTEC programs are designed to provide students with the skills needed to land employment in areas

of high employer demand and open doors to better wage scales. Nine students are currently enrolled.

Thanks to funding from the state-administered FASTFORWARD program, which awards federal workforce funding to accredited training programs that partner with regional Industry, along with a partial match grant from Burnett County, students have nearly zero out-of-pocket costs.

Students are effusive about SOFTEC’s program. “I am so grateful for this opportunity. I am impressed with what I have already learned, and I am telling everyone who wants to hear all about it!” stated Margaret Reynolds, a St. Croix Tribal member and training participant.

SOFTEC Education was founded in 2017. In 2018, SOTEC achieved federal 501(c)(3) non-profit status and gained approval for its initial programs through Workforce Resource and NWCEP (DWD, Wisconsin’s state funded job service. SOFTEC headquarters are located at 25070 Hwy 35N in Siren. SOFTEC’s customized training model is designed and executed by Train Skills Management, LLC. SOFTEC’s website is www. softeceducation.org.

They have gone in on the purchase with the sheriff’s department at the price of $8,743.84.

“The purchase of new hardware is a necessary step for us to meet the specifications required by the Spillman software,” Webster PD administrative assistant Linda Luhman told the Sentinel. “On the administrative end, this allows us to use the new software to collate statistics, generate reports, and complete record requests for our justice-system partners.

WI State Patrol Law of the Month: April With another road construction season getting underway, the Wisconsin State Patrol is asking motorists to be especially cautious when approaching and traveling through highway work zones.

Work zone hazards often include narrow and shifted lanes, uneven pavements, construction workers, and equipment all operating in a confined area.

Rear-end crashes occur far too often in work zones, usually because drivers are going too fast and can’t react in time when traffic in front of them slows or stops, said Wisconsin State Patrol Captain Nick Wanink of the Northwest Region.

When drivers see orange signs and construction barrels, they need to slow down, set the phone aside, and focus on what is happening ahead of them. Last year, there were 3,157 crashes in Wisconsin work zones resulting in 1,274 injuries and nine deaths. While workers in construction zones are vulnerable - often a few feet or less away from moving traffic - most people injured and killed in work zone crashes are motorists.

To help protect motorists and workers, state law (346.89 4m) prohibits the use of hand-held electronic devices in work zones. Violations can result in a $163

citation and assessment of four demerit points. Since the law first took effect in the fall of 2016, a total of 490 traffic convictions have been entered on Wisconsin driver records for violating the law.

The State Patrol offers these work zone safety tips: • Buckle up, be alert, plan ahead.

Leave early or map out an alternate route. Find the latest road conditions and work zone news at 511 Wisconsin; • Eliminate distractions like eating, talking on the phone, and using GPS or other electronic devices; • Expect the unexpected. Speed limits may be reduced, traffic lanes may be shifted, and people and vehicles may be working on or near the road; • Give yourself extra room. Rear-end collisions are common in work zones, so don’t tailgate; • Be patient. If you don’t see workers, that doesn’t mean they’re not there. Be watchful for workers and signs throughout the work zone; • Follow the law. When you see stopped emergency vehicles that have their warning lights activated, move over if possible, or slow down.

New Directors at Interfaith Caregivers

As of January 1, 2019, we, LuAnn and Larry Ebersold, are the new co-directors of Interfaith Caregivers of Burnett County.

We have some big shoes to fill as Barb Blodgett has retired after serving our county for over 20 years. She is still actively transporting people needing rides, and mentoring us as we become familiar with all the ins and outs of our organization. Denny is still serving as our board president, and is very actively leading our Heat-a-Home project and Christmas for Kids, and is helping those in need of furniture.

To review, Interfaith transports people needing rides to appointments, donates furniture to those whose houses have burned or are just in need of individual items, and orchestrates a Christmas for Kids program each winter.

We mentioned our Heat-a-Home project. We use gracious volunteers to cut, split, and stack oak firewood to dry. Denny and those able to help then deliver the wood to those unable to process their own. Over 1,000 trailer loads of wood have been delivered in the past five years. We also have a gentleman who, with the help of others, builds wheelchair ramps for folks needing them to access their homes. Last year we hit a benchmark of 100 ramps.

All these services are offered at no cost to our friends and neighbors in Burnett County, although we do sometimes receive donations to offset the material costs of the ramps.

We focus on serving the elderly, disabled, and veterans.

Driving Retirement JANE MAHONEY OLDER AMERICAN ACT CONSULTANT, GWAAR

Being able to drive is a symbol of freedom, independence, and self-sufficiency. But it is important to consider what happens when declining vision, medication side-effects, or a degenerative condition mean your loved one is no longer safe to drive.

Planning ahead can alleviate some anxiety.

Driving Retirement is a resource for planning for a time when driving is no longer safe. Discussing driving retirement with your loved one while the person still drives will make the transition from driver to rider easier. Consider the following points as you map out a driving retirement.

1. Start by learning what transportation options are available by talking to friends, health care providers, and your local Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC of NW WI) at 877-485-2372.

2. Make a list of the person’s transportation needs and alternative ways to meet those needs.

Include family members and friends in the conversation as you develop the plan, and don’t forget to include social activities.

3. Once the transportation plan is in place, encourage your loved one to start trying out new transportation methods right away. Go with them as they ride the bus, help them make an online order, or walk with them to a nearby store. This will help to reduce stress and increase confidence.

4. Determine when it is time to stop driving.

The following are some warning signs of unsafe driving. · Abrupt lane changes, braking, or accelerating · Confusion at exits or turns · Delayed responses to unexpected situations · Lack of attention to traffic signs or pedestrians · Increased agitation or irritation while driving · Vehicle crashes or near misses There is usually not a specific day when you know it is time to stop driving, and decisions should be based on driving behavior over a period of time, not just a single incident. Have agreed upon measures in place – a driving contract, regular review by family, completion of a driving assessment, or a discussion with a physician – to help determine the balance between a person’s desire to drive and the need for safety.

Use the Driving Retirement Brochure & Workbook and other resources found online at gwaar. org/transportation to help you find the balance between maintaining independence and ensuring safety, for you, your family, and your community.

selection is “The Day the World Came to Town” by Jim DeFede. “When 38 jetliners bound for the United States were forced to land at Gander International Airport in Canada by the closing of U.S. airspace on September 11, the population of this small town on Newfoundland Island swelled from 10,300 to nearly 17,000. The citizens of Gander met the stranded passengers with an overwhelming display of friendship and goodwill.

This book recounts the inspiring story of the residents of Gander, Canada, whose acts of kindness have touched the lives of thousands of people and been an example of humanity and goodwill. ” (from Amazon.com) We meet at 10 a.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month. Books are available at the circulation desk.

This is a loaded question! Many variables Len Chute come into play such as: location, size of parcel, amount of wet (not usable) land, open vs. wooded, utilities available, etc. These are all important factors when pricing property, and can cause huge variances in the value of your property in comparison to your neighbor’s property. The best answer would be to ask the local realtor expert to determine the market value of your property. He or she will compare the features of your property to those of others that are currently listed, as well as those that have sold recently, to determine the best starting price. However, be careful to choose an agent who will not over-exaggerate your listing price just to get a listing; choose one that will price your property to get it sold!

CONCRETE COUNSEL

MEDICAL ADVICE

Q. How often should you seal your concrete?

A. Your concrete should be sealed every year.

Q. How can I “spring clean” my medicine

Concrete maintenance is generally overlooked. Nick Hughes Sealing your exterior concrete and garage floors every year will add years of service to your investment. High gloss sealers are a great choice for decorative stamped or colored concrete. This sealer will give your concrete that shiny “wet” look and really make your concrete shine. Your exterior concrete should be sealed with a siloxane based sealer. This type of sealer works great for garage floors or anything that could come in contact with road chemicals or road salt. A siloxane based sealer will create a water proof barrier on your concrete and will help protect your concrete from chemicals that will attack your concrete causing premature wear and flaking or your concrete surface.

For safety reasons, it’s important to de-clutter your medicine cabinet every six months to avoid Linae Hicks, NP misuse and abuse. As you de-clutter your medicine cabinet, discard expired medications, both prescription and over-the-counter, since they can be ineffective or even toxic. The expiration date is the best way to know the strength of a medicine. If you’re unsure, safely dispose of medications that smell bad, are discolored, dried out, separated, or do not look right in any way.

Get rid of leftover prescription medications from a previous illness and any medications which are not in their original container. Do not flush or throw old medications away! To safely dispose of them, drop them off in the pill drop box at the Burnett County Sheriff ’s Department entrance of the Burnett County Government Center or take them to the St. Croix Tribal Police Department’s pill drop box.

For the month of April, artZ Gallery proudly features three area artists SUBMITTED BY JAN L KILLIAN

EDNA GROTJAHN EARLY Edna’s life journey with jewelry is about providing positive energy in her pieces and for her customers. “Signs of Spring,” our show title, translates to “new life” for her. She is attracted to whatever or whomever is “life-enhancing” or “life-giving.” There is no room

for negativity. She states, “I also want myself and DEJA designs (my jewelry) to be that for others - to give, promote positivity, healing, and balance.”

Her focus is on expanding her line to include innovative materials and exploring new designs. In this line visitors will see pieces featuring soldered sterling silver, fused and texturized fine silver, wrought leathers, and

her continued use of chakra stones and crystals. “I hope my reflections, intrinsic thoughts, and meditations come through my jewelry designs as I incorporate these materials into life enhancing ideas and designs. I want the energy produced from specific chakra stones/crystals to be life-giving, as the seven chakras are meant to be.”

PAUL OMAN Paul loves to paint. Painting is simply another language through which he can share inspiring experiences with others. While seeking to portray existing dynamics in the world, the results can be magical. That is what he strives to do through his work. “Light and shadow, rather than the subject, is often what first grabs my attention. Every brushstroke has purpose and meaning, thoughtfully applied, yet quickly executed for a fresh look.”

His hope is for audiences to be moved to see the world with new eyes, taking notice of the beauty we can so easily take for granted, through his work.

SUBMITTED

Paul Oman focuses on “light and shadow, rather than subject” in his paintings.

PATTI M. FOX Patti has been getting her hands muddy in water-based clay since the late 1980s. Her work has gradually evolved from basic pottery to incorporate her love of plants as well as portraiture.

Working with a number of different clay bodies and surface treatments, she creates a variety of functional planters that incorporate the drip tray into the completed work. Other current work includes portrait reliefs and busts. In Patti’s words, “Smiling makes you feel

better. I enjoy creating clay art that makes me smile as I am working on it, and makes you smile when you view it.”

Patti sculpts at her downtown storefront, Play Dirty Clay Studio, on 5th Avenue in Shell Lake. She has studied under various master sculptors, including Philippe Faraut, Eugene Daub, Jerry Cox, and Tip Toland. In 2018 she had pieces accepted into juried exhibitions at the Pablo Center at the Confluence as well as the prestigious Grand National Exhibition in NYC hosted by the American Artists Professional League. Past passions and present accomplishments can be viewed on her Facebook page: Patti M.

Siren 4th Graders visit Madison, reflect on trip On Friday, March 29, the Siren 4th graders took their annual field trip to Madison. While in Madison, they visited the Wisconsin Historical Museum and the Wisconsin State Capitol. This is a great field trip for the students as they are able to experience being visitors in another community, as well as learning about and seeing their State’s Capitol in person.

For the 8th year in a row, they were able to take a coach bus courtesy of the St. Croix Tribe.

The students and staff would like to extend great gratitude to them for the donation and their continued support.

The trip is a memory that the students will have for a lifetime. When we wrote about our day, the students had some great things to say. A number of them commented on how cool it was to lay on their backs in the rotunda of the Capitol and look up at the mural on the dome.

There were also a number of comments about how cool it was to see artifacts at the Wisconsin

Historical Museum that they see in their Social Studies books.

Here are a few specific comments pulled from the 4th graders’ writing about their day: “My favorite part was seeing the golden statue on top of the Capitol building from the Historical Museum.” – Owen D. “I really liked the Historical Museum, there was lots of stuff there.” – Caleb G.

“I’m really, really thankful for the St. Croix Tribe who got a bus for us.” – Maddy M. “For real, I had more fun than ever before.” – Liam O. “I laid on my back, looked at the ceiling, and it was amazing! I’m probably going to remember that for my whole life.” – Ronald H. It was a great day and fun was had by all.

Pirates take down Lakers, 11-3 STACY COY SENTINEL SPORTS

GRANTSBURG—The Grantsburg Pirates notched another conference win with a solid 11-3 victory over the visiting the Shell Lake Lakers Monday night.

After a scoreless first inning, the Pirates batted around in their half of the second and racked up five runs to take the lead. The Lakers’ pitcher struggled this inning, putting Rylee Hoffman, Ellie Duncan, Jada Hecht and Belle Quimby on base.

Emma Quimby cracked a single, as did Susan Roberts to help the cause. At the end of two, the Pirates sat with a comfortable 5-0 lead.

Shell Lake added two runs in the top of the third and one more in the top of the fourth to make it a 5-3 contest.

In the bottom of the fifth inning, Hoffman stepped to the plate for her Pirates and sent the very first pitch sailing over the centerfield fence for a solo home run, giving the Pirates a 6-3 lead.

The bats of the Pirates came alive once again, as they tacked on five more runs in the sixth inning. Emma Quimby started

it off with a shot to left field, good for a double. Brooke Quimby followed with a single. Rachel Tooze smacked a stand-up double when the ball went under the centerfield fence. Duncan pounded out a double as well, with Belle Quimby rounding out the hitting frenzy with a single of her own.

When the dust settled, the Pirates had an 11-3 lead, which would hold for the final score.

The Pirates are now 5-0 in conference play and hold the top spot in the West Lakeland. They head to Unity on Thursday to take on the Eagles, and will host Somerset Monday and St. Croix Falls Tuesday.

Dragons get experience; hope is present GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS

SIREN—“We had our pitchers throw around 30 pitches so we got to see five guys throw,” said Dragon head coach Jon Ruud following a 12-3 setback to Luck/ Frederic on Monday.

“We also got to see a lot of guys play a couple different spots.

We’ve got a lot of guys that I think can throw for us. We had a couple good hits tonight and

there were a lot of positives here.”

The Dragons were the visiting team and started out getting two runs in the top of the first. Two walks followed by two singles got the runs across.

In the second inning, Siren got a single run across. With one out, two walks, an out, then another walk, and a single produced that run.

Luck/Frederic, on the other hand, got eight runs in the

first inning. Two doubles were the highlights for them in that inning.

It wasn’t until the third inning that Luck/Frederic scored three additional runs and then one more in their half of the fourth.

Dragon pitchers gave up the 12 runs on seven hits, walking nine and striking out seven.

After hosting Webster on Tuesday, the Dragons will go to St. Croix Falls on Thursday, and host Unity next Tuesday.

ter field in the third inning.

In the fourth inning, Webster put four runs across. Five singles with a double by Rosenbaum put the runs on the scoreboard.

Four additional runs came in during the fifth inning. A single and six walks were the scoring plays.

SUPERIOR––Due to the inclement weather and poor field conditions as of late, Webster and Grantsburg brought their track gear to the UW-Superior indoor track Saturday and put on a show.

Webster coach Max Anderson said, “it was the first annual Lakeland conference indoor meet. Eight schools traveled up to UW-Superior to run in their indoor facility. We thought it was a great success. With the weather the way it is usually during the spring, we were glad to have one last chance at getting to an indoor facility. The kids performed well.

“The Webster girls finished fourth. Some of the highlights would include the girls 1600 meter run where Malaky Olson, a freshman, ran a personal best and finished second. Emily Doriott, a sophomore, also ran a personal best and finished third. Jenna Gomulak rounded out the race for Webster with a fourthplace finish.”

Malaky also finished second in the two mile with a PR of over one minute (13:41.68). The girls also had a fourth and fifth place finish from sophomore Jona Matrious and senior Dulcie Ashworth in the hurdles.

“The girls field events were lead by Jenna Gomulak and Jeni Petersen. Jenna won the pole vault with a new PR and Jeni was third in triple jump and long jump. It was her first time ever long jumping and her jump of 15’5” was the fifth best jump in school history.”

The Grantsburg girls finished in third place. Linda Harmon came in fourth and fifth place respectively in the 55 and 200 meter dash. She was also fourth in the triple jump. Mirlande Brande was fourth in the 400 meter dash.

Gracie Gerber and Alexis Slater were second and third in the 800 meter run. Grantsburg’s 4x400 team was third and the 4x800 team was second.

Allison Peterson had a first and second in the triple jump and long jump respectively.

“The boys finished second in the meet vs a very strong St. Croix Falls team,” said Coach Anderson.

“The boys had some stand out performances. The 4x800 team consisting of Hunter Erickson, Xavier Stanton, Kerik Stubbe, and Carter Doriott ran a season best 9:08.73. That was good enough for second.

That same group also finished second in the 4x400 relay as well. The boys 4x200 team consisting of CJ Abbas, Ethan Ashworth, Keith Glienke, and Xavier Stanton also had a second place finish.”

“Running for the boys, we had a third place finish from freshman Ethan Ashworth (24.97). He is attempting to chase down a freshman record for Webster in the 200, that was set in the 90s, of 24.94.”

“In the 800, we had Carter and Kerik finish third and sixth. Hunter Erickson finished second in the 1600 with a lifetime PR in the mile. I want to mention Edwin Janssen in the two mile as well. He had a lifetime PR and a fifth place finish.”

Continuing, Coach Anderson reported, “We saw some strong field performances as well. Tristian Benjamin finished fourth in the shot put and Ethan Ashworth finished fourth in the long jump, setting a PR for himself with a jump of 18’2.”

“But the field events were led by Harlo Olson and Jack Washburn. Harlo Olson won the shot put with a throw of 47’-0 ½” and Jack won all three of his events.

Said Coach Jarrod Washburn of the Tigers, “it was cold, but it felt better than being in a gym.

It was good that their (Unity’s) field was dry enough to play on, and it was good to be outside.”

In regards to the pitching, “Jack didn’t do as well as he did last week, but he did do well. He fell behind in a few pitch counts and threw more than I would have liked to have seen him throw.”

The Tigers will have played Siren Tuesday, weather and field condi-

tions permitting. Next Monday, Mondovi will visit Webster and Tuesday, Turtle Lake/Clayton will travel to Webster for a game.

He won the triple jump with a jump of 42’2”, the high jump with a jump of 5’10” (he took three awesome attempts at 6’5” trying for a school record) and he won the long jump with a jump of 20-8 ½.”

Jack’s long jump was long enough to break our school record which was held by Caleb Quenzer. The jump from 1999 was 20-6”. So we want to shoutout a big congrats to Jack who is working hard and having a very busy springtime. That was a

20-year-old record.”

For the Pirates, Nate McKinley had a busy day.

He was first in the 200 meter dash and the 400 meter dash, and second in the 100 meter dash and triple jump.

Jared Van Watermuelen placed second in the high jump.

The 4x800 relay team placed third.

Both squads meet again at Frederic Thursday.

Next Tuesday, Grantsburg is slated for a meet at Baldwin-Woodville and Webster goes to Medford.

Badgers’ Leo Chenal, a freshman linebacker from Grantsburg, appears to have the right stuff JEFF POTRYKUS MILWAUKEE JOURNAL SENTINEL

MADISON—Leo Chenal has proved, at least through Wisconsin’s first seven spring practices, that he is more than a weight-room warrior.

The freshman inside linebacker from Grantsburg High School has displayed an appetite for learning the defense, a willingness to hit, and the ability to make plays against the run or pass.

“Leo is a good football player and he is getting the opportunity to get a lot of reps,” UW coach Paul Chryst said. “At some point you’re earning those reps. They are given to you initially or there is a rotation.

“But I’ve loved his approach to everything. He is attacking the spring like you’d want. I think he’s got a chance to be a good football player. Certainly, there is a lot he has to figure out, but he has put himself in position.”

Playing is promised to no one, particularly in April, yet Chenal appears on track to be in the playing rotation in 2019.

The 6-foot-2, 239-pound Chenal is part of a group of five players vying for a place on the depth chart at inside linebacker. Chris Orr and Jack Sanborn generally have formed the top pairing, with Chenal, Mike Maskalunas, and converted safety Seth Currens following.

“He impressed me the

first day we came out and he was barking out calls,” tailback Garrett Groshek said when asked about Chenal, one of several freshmen who enrolled at UW in January. “It is always good to have a vocal guy, especially with him being at the ‘mike’ spot because he’s got to direct people. He’ll be promising.”

During a recent workout, Chenal bench-pressed 225 pounds 32 times. His strength impressed his older teammates from the early sessions of winter workouts. But workouts don’t always translate to productivity on the field.

Chenal, the 2018 Wisconsin Gatorade Player of the Year, moves well and has handled the physical

demands of the position.

Perhaps most important, Chenal hasn’t been tentative. His aggression has led to mistakes as well as positive plays, but he appears to have the capacity to learn from the former.

“It may not always be right, but he is going to give himself a chance,” Chryst said. “That is a great way to learn. Mistakes…you never want to say they’re OK, but that is part of (learning) and you want them to put themselves out there.

“It’s the only way you progress. If it can sting in April, you’d much rather make a mistake in April than in September, October, November.”

Pirates drop non-conference match-up STACY COY SENTINEL SPORTS

CHETEK—The Grantsburg Pirates baseball team is still looking for their first win of the season after dropping a non-conference match-up to Chetek/Weyerhauser 17-10 on Tuesday, April 19 after five innings of play.

“Both teams were hitting like crazy, so it took an hour and a half to get through innings,” Pirates head coach Pete Johnson said of the game. “The sun was low, and it was very cold and windy so we called this game after five.”

Both teams tallied four runs in the first inning with Austin Wedin, Luke Anderson, David Nelson, and Ben Johnson crossing the plate for the Pirates.

The Pirates tacked on three more runs in the second, with C/W adding four to their score to take a 8-7 lead over the Pirates.

“C/W has a few big swingers, and with the wind at their backs, they punished us,” Coach Johnson noted.

Grantsburg scored their final three runs in the top of the third with Sterling McKinley, Thor Johnson, and Anderson scoring.

For the night, the Pirates scored 10 runs on 10 hits. Anderson, Nelson, and Thor Johnson led the way with two hits each. Ben Johnson, Ramsey Clark, Connor Detienne, and McKinley tallied one hit apiece.

“Luke and Thor continue to hit gaps,” the coach said.

Thor Johnson had three RBI on his two hits with Nelson and Ben Johnson recording two RBI each. Clark had added one RBI to the list.

McKinley and Wedin were on the mound for the Pirates. McKinley pitched two innings, striking out one while allowing six hits.

Wedin pitched two innings as well, striking out two and giving up 10 hits.

“We played better than the first couple of games, but there are still some holes in our game,” Coach Johnson added.

The Pirates are scheduled to head to Unity on Thursday night to take on the Eagles, and will host St. Croix Falls on Tuesday.

Patricia “Pat” L. Kelly Patricia Lucille “Pat” K Kelly, 85, of Webb Lake, p peacefully passed away w with her husband of 65 y years, Charles, and other ffamily members by her sside on April 8, 2019.

Pat was born on the famiily century farm in Vesta, M Minnesota, to Edward and C Cecilia (Nogaj) Boushek on A August 7, 1933. She was the ssecond of seven children.

All members of the Boushek family were instrumental in the daily workings of farm and family life.

On June 26, 1954 Pat was united in marriage to Charles “Chuck” Kelly at the Catholic Church of the Holy Name in Vesta, Minnesota. Their marriage was a true partnership, spanning 65 years. Together they raised four children in New Brighton, Minnesota, and retired in 1999 to Webb Lake.

Pat is a graduate of Redwood Falls High School and Minneapolis Business College. She enjoyed a profession as a medical secretary for many years, although her favorite role was being a wife and mother.

Pat is survived by her loving husband, Chuck, and four children, Cynthia (Bob) Hardina, Timothy (Calli) Kelly, Micheal (Chris) Kelly, and Patrick (Laura Irvin) Kelly. She will also be dearly missed by her 10 grandchildren, Catie (Darin) Long, Chelsea (Rick) Zebro, Jason (Shannon) Tacheny, Patrick (Meg) Donahue, Tyler (Taylor Iozzio) Kelly, Ryan, Maria, Christina, Stephania, and Anastasia Kelly; and 11 great grandchildren, Ashlee, Catelin, and Blake Zebro, Elizabeth Long, Andrew, Elizabeth, and Grace Tacheny, Juniper and Cormac Donahue, and Holden and Hayden Kelly; as well as her six siblings Shirley Kruger, Dorothy Bowen, Bob (Joanne) Boushek, Mary Kay (Gars) Aarness, Jerry (Mary Jane) Boushek, and Diane (Mark) Kochendorfer, and many nieces and nephews. She was preceded in death by her parents and brother- in- law, Doug Bowen.

A woman of deep faith and love for God, Pat instilled her farm and Catholic Christian upbringing in her core values throughout her life: to love God, to pray always, to nurture family, to work hard, to bear your burdens, to help and love others, to have joy in the simple things, to respect nature, and to make this world a brighter place.

To be in the presence of Pat, who was a lively, loving, and energetic woman, was a true blessing. She was an active parishioner of Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Catholic Church in Scott Township. Her many church involvements included being in the choir and prayer groups, visiting the sick and bereaved, cooking for funerals, and volunteering at fundraisers. She was also active in the parish CCW. Her other main passions were family gatherings, traveling with her husband and their friends, playing with her grand and great grandchildren, welcoming people into her home, ‘wintering’ in Dauphin Island, Alabama, and several groups of friends including bridge, dominoes, and book clubs, and her “Golden Girls.”

Pat also loved gardening, cooking, enjoying music, feeding birds, nature photography, journaling, a beautiful sunset, and learning new things. She maintained her childlike awe and curiosity all her life. She is dearly missed and will be remembered with love by all who knew her. In her own parting words: “I have lived a wonderful life...sustained by faith in God...I’m not afraid of death, but view it as a new beginning...in passing, I want my loved ones to remember me with joy and not sorrow.”

Funeral Mass for Pat Kelly will be on Tuesday, April 23 at Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Catholic Church in Scott Township. Visitation at 12 p.m. with Funeral Mass at 1 p.m. She will be interred at Northern Wisconsin Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery in Spooner.

Memorial donations may be made to: Birthright of Brainard, 401 W Laurel, suite B, Brainerd. MN 56401 or Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary Catholic Church, County Rd A & H Crescent Lake Webster, WI 54893.

Her family would like to thank Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis, Minnesota for the care they gave Pat and her grieving family in the last days of her life. Blessed be her memory.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Swedberg-Taylor Funeral Home in Webster, WI. Online condolences may be expressed at www.swedberg-taylor.com.

Janet E. Oachs Janet Oachs, 80, of Grantsb burg, passed away peacefully o on April 8, 2019 after a long b battle with myelofibrosis seco ondary to polycythemia vera.

F Family was by her side when sshe went to be with the Lord.

J Janet was born to Leonard a and Signe Linden, of Grantsb burg, on April 2, 1939 and a attended Grantsburg Public S Schools, graduating in 1957.

After graduation, Janet spent a year at Lutheran Bible Institute in Minneapolis, Minnesota. She then went on to attend the Swedish Hospital School of Nursing in Minneapolis, graduating with a nursing degree in 1961. She began her career as a nurse for various hospitals in the Twin Cities before starting a long career as a registered nurse at the Burnett County Medical Center, retiring in 2004.

In addition to her position as a registered nurse, Janet taught CNA classes for 10 years through WITC for aspiring nursing assistants while touching many lives.

She was recognized as a leader in the nursing department throughout her time at the hospital. It’s been said that she was the nurse other nurses would find to help them get their patients up to walk, etc. She was tough, but gentle and loving. Janet was able to exhibit her passionate care for others in many ways while at Burnett County Medical Center.

While working as a nurse Janet also found time to raise her four children. She attended many sporting events and supported the programs in which her kids participated, including hockey, football, volleyball, and basketball. She loved watching her kids play, supporting the Pirates, and enjoying the many friendships that were made with other parents and community members. She also served as a Den Mother for her boys and Girl Scout leader for Cheri for many years.

Janet was a congregational anchor while attending church at Zion Lutheran in Trade Lake. She had a strong faith in the Lord, her church, and church family.

She helped with food preparation, serving for many events, taking care of the church, and she was a frequent reader and service assistant.

For many years she was also a Sunday and Bible school teacher at the church. In a recent interview with granddaughter Olivia, Janet was asked if she had any religious/family values or life lessons she wanted her children and grandchildren to take with them in their lives. She stated “to remember that God loves them, to love each other no matter what, and that family always comes first.”

Janet will probably be most remembered for her frequent hosting of family events at her home. As all will

contend, she was an exceptional cook, but it was her love for her family that made the events (sometimes very large) so special. She rarely missed an opportunity host a gathering which included more than enough food, and of course, her famous dill pickles and mom’s signature rice pudding. She always made everyone feel welcomed into her home.

Besides her love of entertaining, Janet loved to read and watch sporting events; those of her own children and grandchildren, as well as college and professional teams.

While living in the Cities in 1961 with her nursing classmates, Janet met the man (and roommates) next door. The girls were having car trouble one evening and knew there were boys next door, so they asked for their help. The boys had a TV and the girls didn’t, so the next evening they invited the girls over to watch, but Ron must have been watching more than the TV that night. Soon after, Janet and Ron began dating and were married on June 13, 1964 at Zion Lutheran in Trade Lake. After a short time living in Plymouth, Minnesota, they decided to move back to Janet’s hometown of Grantsburg, where they have remained ever since. Ron eventually started his own construction business and Janet was the company bookkeeper. They have had a loving marriage of nearly 55 years with four children, 12 grandchildren, and one great grandchild.

Janet is survived by her husband, Ron Oachs; son, Chris (Sandi) Oachs; son, Cary (Lori) Oachs; daughter, Cheri (Ray) Queener; and son, Chad (Kerri) Oachs; grandchildren: Whitney, Maria, and Finn Oachs; Tadd, Evan, and Camryn Oachs; Ashley (Ben) Twait, Anthony (Miranda) Queener, Alex Queener; Alaina, Olivia, and Sophia Oachs; great-granddaughter, Charlotte Queener; brother, Charlie (Betty) Linden; sister, Pat (Jim) Foley; sister, Clarice (John) Aasen; sister, Myrna (Dennis) Thompson; brothers-in-law: Al “Skeeter” (Hazel) Oachs, Wayne Oachs, Eugene (Pat) Oachs, and David (Karyn) Oachs; sisters-in-law, Sharon (Steve) Mohelski and Diane Romanoski; uncle, Gene (Donnis) Benson; and many loving nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

Janet was preceded in death by her parents, Leonard and Signe Linden; parents-in-law, Thorl and Beatrice Oachs; brothers-in-law, Gary Oachs and Richard Romanoski; and nieces, Sheila Kosel and Annette Finnila.

Visitation will be held 5:00-7:00 p.m. on Friday, April 12 at Swedberg-Taylor Funeral Home in Grantsburg.

A Celebration of Life will be at 11:00 a.m. on Saturday, April 13 at Zion Lutheran Church in Trade Lake with visitation at 10:00 a.m.; burial will follow at the church cemetery.

Arrangements have been entrusted to Swedberg-Taylor Funeral Home in Grantsburg. Online condolences may be expressed at www.swedberg-taylor.com.

Randall “Randy” Decker Randall “Randy” Decker, a age 58, a resident of Webster, fformerly of Cedarburg Port, W Washington and Minneapollis, Minnesota, died suddenlly on Sunday, April 7, 2019.

Randy loved his life in W Webster, especially all his ffriends. He never wanted to m move because he didn’t want tto make new ones, and “who w would he find to help him.”

R Randy wasn’t very handy around the house, nor very mechanically inclined. To all of you who have helped Randy out over the years, Jody thanks you, as it was very much appreciated. He also remembered his friends from Cedarburg and Minneapolis, where he had lived before. He had been very much looking forward to his RV’s “Maiden Voyage” to

Cedarburg to visit his family and friends.

Randy had a big heart and an infectious laugh. Even if you didn’t see him, but heard his laugh, you knew he was close by. Randy always said he was the “King of Burnett County,” and maybe he was when it came to his cooking at Whiskey Joe’s and Last Call.

Randy was preceded in death by his parents, sister, Ann, and his grandparents.

He is survived by his wife, Jody; son, Justin; and his mom, Natalie (Mike) Murray; grandson, Ranen; sisters, Wendy (Stu) and Joell (Scott); nephews, Nick and Josh; and niece, Alexian; step-son, Matt (Kelly) Fahland and their children, Reisch and Maddy. He will also be missed by his dogs, Rowan, the bed hog and Riley, the PITA. Keep on laughing Randy, wherever you are.

A Celebration of Life will be planned for a later date.

Arrangements were entrusted to Swedberg-Taylor Funeral Home, Webster. Online condolences can be made at www.swedberg-taylor.com.

The meaning of the resurrection

PASTOR DALE VAN DEUSEN TRADE RIVER EVANGELICAL FREE CHURCH

It just doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen, but it did. No one else ever did, but he did. Jesus rose from the dead, just as He said. Jesus foretold his resurrection and then actually did rise from the dead. The historical evidence is convincing. There is the empty tomb, numerous eyewitness accounts, and the radical change in the disciplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lives.

Jesus died for our sins and then rose from the dead. The resurrection says a lot about Jesus, and it says a lot about us and our future. The resurrection of Jesus is the defeat of sin and death, and is God the Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s

validation that Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; death for our sins was acceptable.

Because Christ rose from the dead, the sins of those who rely on him are forgiven, the Bible is true and can be trusted, and those who die in Christ will be raised to be with Jesus forever. Because of the resurrection, we can have hope in all circumstances.

Jesus reigns over all, including the worst of evil, and death itself.

The power that raised Jesus from the dead is the Christianâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s power for living the Christian life, and is our assurance of eternal

Jesus said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die. Do you believe this?â&#x20AC;? Our answer to His question will determine our eternal destiny.

35 North to perform at the Frederic Arts Center FREDERIC–– Web Macomber and Jay Stackhouse will share their musical talents as a “35 North” duo in a Raising the Roof concert Friday, April 26, at the Frederic Arts Center on Lake Avenue, across from Coon Lake Park. The free concert begins at 7:30 p.m., and is a fundraiser for Frederic Arts, with freewill donations going to the Building Projects Fund.

Musician partners for more than 20 years, Web is the primary vocalist and plays guitar, while Jay performs on a variety of instruments and provides backup vocals. Jay describes their music as basically Vietnam-era Americana, although

as the “35 North” band has grown to include sons and fellow musicians, they also perform more contemporary music.

The Raising the Roof monthly concert series showcases local musical talent and encourages donations to the Frederic Arts Center for facility improvements, including a fully accessible space for arts education, expression, and enjoyment.

Frederic Arts is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, and welcomes new members and supporters. More information can be found on Facebook.com/FredericArtsCenter and online at fredericarts. org.

A SPECIAL SUPPLEMENT TO THE

T

his special section of the Burnett County Sentinel is about making connections.

Connecting with young readers is an important part of our business at the Sentinel. A great deal of effort is given to cover athletic activities, musical concerts and performances as well as a number of other activities we photograph and report on.

With this edition, 2019 Design An Ad, we are proud to bring you advertising designed by students in the fifth grade classes of Grantsburg, Siren and Webster schools.

Advertising may be one of the purest expressions of persuasion. People who sell a good or service do their best to convince consumers that their lives will be made easier or better by purchasing the item or service.

This effort has been underway for centuries, and newspapers continue to play a vital role in connecting consumers and merchants.

There are people who make an entire career of studying the buying habits of various age groups. By studying where and how money is spent, companies then can develop a plan to appeal to the various segments of the population.

Many merchants, including the ones that supported this section, realize

DESIGN AN AD

APRIL 17, 2019

www.burnettcountysentinel.com

that all children will become consumers. If they aren’t buying things with their own money, they have influence over Mom and Dad when they are shopping.

Any way you slice it, the young people of today have a perspective and are directly or indirectly deciding where dollars are being spent.

For this edition, the students were asked to look into the participating businesses by visiting the business and/or their websites to learn about the goods and services they offer.

We asked the students to draw ads representing the businesses using words and/or artwork to convey a message about the business.

The advertisements were then presented to the participating business for which they were designed, and they reviewed the student’s ad designs and chose the best one for their business.

A big “thank you” to the merchants that participated in this section; the students, staff and administration of the Grantsburg, Siren and Webster Schools.

We have enjoyed working with the students and teachers and hope you enjoy this unique section as much as we enjoyed bringing it to you.

Spring Brides

A Special Supplement to

The Sun â&#x20AC;˘ Amery Free Press Burnett County Sentinel â&#x20AC;˘ Baldwin Bulletin

Page 2 • “Spring Brides” • 2019 Wedding Guide

Going Big

S

pring’s biggest wedding trend is just that — big. Gone are the dainty, delicate touches of seasons past and in are big blooms, big bows and bold colors, says Harper’s Bazaar.

Here are a few ways to take your ceremony to the next level.

Blooming Dresses

Designers are opting for big flowers, but not in the bouquet. Instead, look for posies as part of the gown itself. Rich embroideries, plush appliques and breathtaking accents were all spotted on designer runways. Remember, though, if you’ve got a giant geranium on your hemline to keep the flora toned down elsewhere.

Tone Up

Also spied on the catwalk: More bridal options than ivory or white. Perennial favorite designer Vera Wang showcased gowns in nude, violet and even bright red. Brides magazine says other designers turned their palettes purple and sent out a variety of pale lavender pieces.

Glitz and Glam

New gowns also offered up lots of dazzle in edgy metallic silhouettes. Also on trend: cascades of feathers, roaring ruffles and oversized bows. Again, with bold styling, remember to keep the rest of your ensemble simple to avoid looking too over the top.

A Variety of Shapes

Wedding dresses aren’t just waist-cinchers anymore. Try on a new shape like a swingy, flowy trapeze or a gown with an empire waist. These dresses are often easier to wear and require fewer layers than your more traditional gown.

Ask your bridal shop to point you to a unique waist and length to flatter your shape.

Hiring a Photographer F

or as much planning as go into them, your actual wedding day will probably pass in a blur. So it’s important to choose the right photographer to preserve memories for you to look back on. Keep reading for tips on choosing just the right photographer to preserve your special day.

Do

Ask for a portfolio. A photographer’s portfolio showcases their best work. Ask to see a complete wedding set to get a better idea of how the photographer operates. Look for uniform quality in the shots and see that the photographer’s style matches your own.

Come armed with questions.

Typical questions should include if the photographer shoots digitally or with film, if they charge extra for travel or parking, and if there will be a written agreement for your events. Hint: There should be.

Scour that quote. Be on the lookout for extras that you don’t need, like extra prints or a CD copy of your album.

Don’t be afraid to ask to sub those items out for things you would like, such as a parents album or personalized thankyou cards.

Go over your contract carefully to make sure your expectations and your photog-

rapher’s talents align.

Don’t Take the cheap route. A professional wedding photographer costs money. Don’t ever rely on Cousin Ed to take professional-grade shots (unless, of course, he is a professional wedding photographer. Then, if he offers, go ahead.)

Overlook venue rules. It may sound silly to you, but venues usually have those rules for a very good reason.

Sure, just one little wedding full of flashes won’t hurt the priceless artifacts behind your church’s altar, but think of a whole season’s worth of flashes, several times every Saturday.

Prioritize product. Pay for the photographer, not the goods, says the International Society of Professional Wedding Photographers. Who cares if you have giant canvas prints of your big day if you can’t stand to look at them?

On Trend: Jump In

T

he wedding jumpsuit is officially a thing for 2019. If you’re a bride who bucks tradition and loves a good tailored trouser over puffy layers of tulle, you’re in luck this season.

Designers at all budget levels are jumping on board with a jumpsuit for every taste and style.

Traditional

OK, so the jumpsuit may never be strictly traditional, but Brides magazine says the tradition-loving, jumpsuit-seeking bride should look for options in white or ivory with lace. Be sure to pick a suit that’s lined for modesty’s sake.

Minimalist

For the no-fussiest of no-fuss brides, it’s all about the fabric. Look for a simple silhouette in satin, let’s say. But with minimal details, what there is must be on point. Craftsmanship, especially in small details like pleating and straps, should be perfect. Ask your bridal shop for options and alterations for the best wedding-day fit.

Bohemian Go boho with lots of texture and embroidery. A flowy, romantic jumpsuit also pairs perfectly with the outdoor ceremony, so feel free. Wide leg versions mimic a skirt, but you can also find plenty in cropped lengths to let you shake a leg on the dance floor.

Dress or Pants? Both!

If you can’t make up your mind, look for a jumpsuit with a detachable skirt.

On for the ceremony, off for partying it up at the reception. Make sure your maid of honor or bridesmaids know how to work the detachable skirt and that you’ll have a place to stash it while you party.

Catering on a Budget T

he source of many a bridal headache, catering and menus may make up a huge chunk of your wedding budget. Ask these questions to pull off a stunning smorgasboard while staying within your budget.

Are you licensed?

This means your caterer hasn’t run afoul of your state’s department of health (not today, ptomaine) and also carries insurance. If the caterer is also providing bar service, make sure they’ve provided for your state and venue’s rules about alcohol.

Do you have references?

Talk to at least two references, preferably those that have had a similar style wedding or a similar number of guests. Ask particularly what it’s like to work with the caterer and what their personality is like.

What kinds of cuisine do you specialize in?

It should go without saying, but don’t hire someone who is known for their traditional American fare to lay out a sushi spread. If you’ve always dreamed of having a certain cuisine at your wedding, go for a caterer that specializes in that.

Is the meal full service?

This means the caterer will attend to table settings, drinks and cleanup. If it’s not, be prepared to hire more staff and arrange for these things on your own.

Is there an additional fee for special requests?

Someone there is going to be gluten-free or vegan or require other special meals.

Ask the caterer if they can do that and, if so, if there’s an extra charge. Make sure to leave room in your budget.

Can I see serveware, table settings, linens, salt and pepper shakers, etc.?

If your caterer offers these services, make sure to lay eyes on them before the big day. That way you can be sure the plates and tongs are up to your standards. If the caterer doesn’t bring these things, you’ll need to know so you can leave room in the budget for rental, either from your venue or a separate company.

Trends in Wedding Rings

T

his yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s engagement rings go way beyond the classic sparkler. Here are a few of the top engagement ring trends from the folks at InStyle.

own lane.

Put A Halo On It Halo effect rings have smaller diamonds ringing the center stone, often making it look larger than it is. Work with your jeweler to find the perfect diamond to accent this unique setting.

Pure Pear This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hottest diamond shape is the pear.

A pear diamond, the Gemological Institute of America says, consists of the head (the bottom), the shoulder (where it starts to move toward the point), the belly (the middle), the wing (as the diamond tapers) and the point.

GIA says the perfect pear has gently rounded shoulders and wings. Wings should form attractive arches so that the stone doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t look too narrow or too short.

Twice as Nice, Bands and Stones If one giant diamond is good, two must be better.

For the chicest of rocks, put two stones on one single band. Or, keep the single stone and choose a ring with a double band, lined in diamonds or not, your choice.

Gem Dandy More couples are ditching the traditional diamond

for colored gemstones like sapphires, rubies and emeralds. Making the switch may get you a bigger stone for your money and speak to a bride that makes her

Maximize your Flower Budget N ext to your dress, flowers are perhaps the most visible part of your wedding.

According to Brides magazine, you should be budgeting around $3,000 for your big day’s blossoms. For that kind of money, you need to be careful who (and what) you pick. Here are some tips saving some green on your wedding flowers.

Think Seasonal

Ask your florist to work with seasonal foliage to not only give your wedding a sense of time and place but also to save on your budget.

If you just have to have that special, costly flower, go for it, but ask the florist to keep it minimal and mix in other, less expensive blossoms.

Pump Up the Volume

Go for flowers with large, showy blooms instead of lots of smaller stems. Florists may also opt to mix in structural pieces like branches to make arrangements look fuller.

Give the florist their head, but also reiterate that you’re on a budget.

Go Big, But Just Once If your heart says flowers everywhere on every surface but your wallet says bud vase, see if your florist can make one big show-stopping arrangement and deploy it effectively. Place this bad boy in one key area and opt for smaller, less-expensive

arrangements elsewhere.

Reuse Have the florist recycle ceremony flowers at the reception.

And, when possible, use the

venue’s own natural beauty to accentuate the blooms.

Use lighting or other decor to add some umph to what you can afford, and guests won’t notice what’s not there.

On Trend: How Sweet it Is

N

othing has more potential for complications on your wedding day than the towering cake at the end of the reception hall.

They make entire TV shows about building (and moving) what may be the largest cake you’ll ever have to buy. Make your wedding shine and stay on the cutting edge with these cake trends.

Going Up

Towering cakes are hot right now, says American Cake Decorating, and brides are soaring past two- and three-tier cakes for eight- or nine-tiers of sugared bliss. These cakes come with serious logistics issues, though.

Make sure your baker is comfortable making (and moving!

Did we mention moving?!) such a tall cake, and that your venue will make this as easy as possible.

Read: Please don’t make anyone bring a nine-tier cake up five flights of stairs.

Color is White Hot

Gone are pale pastels and blinding white icings. In are deep, moody colors and shining metallics. Look for ways to add shine with edible pearls and dramatic, elegant frosting colors. If you’re

going bold, balance it out with a simple, elegant cake shape and style. There can be too much of a good thing.

Get Naked Not like that. Naked cakes are the hottest of hot trends and feature cakes with little to no frosting and exposed edges and sides. Ask your baker to use buttercream for this application, which is a tad more heat friendly than heaps and swirls of frosting.

Naked cakes also allow for the flavor of cakes and fillings to shine through. Make sure your baker makes an A+ cake and also take the opportunity to have fun with your filling.

Small World If big isn’t your thing, cut out the cake and go for a small dessert table filled with the couple’s favorite treats. Pies? Yup. Cookies? There. Fresh berries and cream? By the spoonful. This presentation offers up lots of variety and also makes for a heartwarmingly personal reception.

“We had the most magical day, we both will cher ish for a lifetime and it’s all due to you and the dream barn! You made the weeke nd stress-free and a dream for us.

Croix-View will always have a special place in our hearts.”

Lighting: The New Rental

W

hen youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking for a wedding venue, you may not think of adding lighting.

Depending on the venueâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rules and regulations, you may be able to add some extra wattage to your ceremony.

Keep reading for tips on how to get the best and brightest big day.

Go Big or Think Small

Lighting can be as simple as adding candles or lanterns (look for battery-operated LEDs if your venue doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow open flames). Or it could be as big as color washes on the walls, disco balls and a labyrinth of neon. Either way, you need your lighting to fit your budget and your venue.

You need a lighting designer.

Your venue may be able to recommend someone who has worked there in the past, or one of your other vendors may be able to point you in the right direction.

Make a Site Visit Once youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve found your pro, make a site visit. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re indoors, look at how the sunlight comes in at different times of day so you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t overwhelm any one space. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re outside, go after dark so you can make sure the

areas that need illumination, both for looks are for safety, get it.

Also talk to your planner and venue personnel about electricity needs. You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want a blown fuse to flip off the lights just as you hit the dance floor. Ask if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need

any permits, especially for extra lighting outside, and be mindful of the neighbors.

Get It In Writing Of course, as with all your other vendors, get all the details of your lighting package in writing, along with a com-

plete estimate of costs. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be afraid to ask any questions up front and lay out all your expectations before signing on the dotted line.

Also make sure your lighting vendor is property insured and permitted.

Headgear is Back

O

ne wedding trend making its way back down the aisle is the bridal chapeau.

There are lots of reasons for this, like a spate of royal weddings, but no matter what moves you to pick up a new hat, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re glad you did. Here are some tips for picking the perfect hat for your wedding.

How To Pick a Hat For these hat tips, we turned to Good Housekeeping UK because, as we saw at the royal weddings, the British are obviously the professionals.

The magazine says the first step is to pick the rest of your outfit, as the hat should complement the look in color, size and proportion. Make sure your hat accentuates the silhouette of your outfit and the shape of your face.

People with a round face, for instance,

should choose an angular hat.

Some rules: Wear your hair up with most hats and never don sunglasses with a hat.

Consider the Venue For most venues, Good Housekeeping says, avoid a floppy hat in favor of a structured hat, like a pillbox. Mothers of the bride and groom should make

#ÇžĘ&#x160;ÇŞÉŞČąË&#x2026; Ă&#x2019;Ĺ&#x17D;ĸĸƸǪĆ&#x17E;É&#x2026; ĂŤÉŞ 2Ç&#x2030;Çž !ÍĤÇ&#x2030;Ĺ&#x17D;ÇŞ

sure their faces are visible under their hats, and the mother of the bride always gets to wear the larger hat, unless both bride and groom are hosting the ceremony. Only guests going to an outdoor country wedding may choose a floppier hat with loose locks. Guests at an evening ceremony should choose smaller accessories, like an elegant comb.

Headbands This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s head accessories arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t your heavy 1990s tiara. Sleek bandeaus with minimal embellishments are in, as are smaller tiaras. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more elegant than blingy. Your bridal boutique will be able to recommend pieces to perfectly accentuate your dress.
