William Cauley, 35, will be released from the Black River Correctional Institute June 17.

He was convicted of multiple counts of possession of child pornography in 2016.

“Cauley remains under the close supervision of local Probation Agents,” the sheriff’s office said in a statement.

To the Farmers’ Market we go The Burnett County Farmers’ Market was set up in the Saturday sunshine over the weekend. The market is in Siren in the Tesora Parking lot from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m.

A search warrant by Siren Police for drugs led to two people being arrested and charged with a total of six felony drug-related charges, including maintaining a drug trafficking place, possession with intent to deliver cocaine and possession with intent to

deliver methamphetamine.

Troy A. Lanning, 52, Siren, and Chelsea R. Lindmeier, 35, Danbury, were both arrested and charged with multiple felony counts.

According to the criminal complaint, a search warrant for a Siren home was attained after a Siren Police and SEE CHARGES, PAGE 2

Politicians gear up for primaries JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

The upcoming partisan primaries will be another chance for voters to express their opinions.

Municipalities are expecting a large number of ballots to arrive through the mail and not in-person on election day.

Partisan primaries will be on Aug. 11 with the general election set for Nov. 3. The Wisconsin election

In the Wisconsin State Senate, two Republicans are trying to unseat Patty Schachtner (D-Somerset).

In 2018, Schachtner defeated Republican Adam Jarchow for the seat that was vacated by Sheila Harsdorf after being appointed by former Gov. Scott Walker to be secretary of the Department of

rules prescribed by DOC (Department of Corrections) including no unsupervised contact with minors, no contact with victims, cooperate with lifetime GPS monitoring, and a lifetime registration with the Wisconsin Sex Offender Registration Program.�

The press release also stated that Cauley will be homeless in Burnett County following his release.

Cauley joins the over 500,000 homeless people in the United States and about 5,000 homeless in the state of Wisconsin. Residence restrictions and other ordinances make finding housing for registered sex offenders difficult.

An article published by the American Physiological Association (APA) tackling this topic explained that being homeless is not a crime. “Jailing sex offenders who are homeless — through no fault

CHARGES: Two charged following warrant

of their own — is not an appropriate solution,� the story said which was written by Cynthia Calkins, Ph.D., John Jay College of Criminal Justice, and Robert Beattey, JD, Graduate Center at City University of New York.

Cauley first caught the attention of authorities following an investigation by the Department of Criminal Investigation (DCI), a branch of the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ), in late 2014.

In February 2015, a search executed at the Cauley residence, conducted by DCI agents, resulted in the seizure of three computer hard drives and a cellphone.

A subsequent search of the devices yielded 138 images and/or movie files of child pornography.

According to the criminal complaint against Cauley, he was in possession of nine still photos and a 24-second video clip of a prepubescent girl — explicitly sexual in nature.

Burnett County Sheriff’s officers noted increased traffic at Lanning’s home on Capes Street.

Siren Police Chief Chris Sybers breached the front door of the home while another officer yelled they had a search warrant. Lanning was sitting next to Lindmeier and another man. The three were moved to the garage as the home was secured.

The complaint states Lanning willingly answered questions at this point.

Lanning Lanning had allegedly been waiting for someone to deliver $500 worth of methamphetamine, but that person never arrived. He continued to say that the three people who were found in the house were pooling their money for a big shipment of methamphetamine.

Lanning allegedly told Lindmeier authorities there was about

3/4 of an ounce of methamphetamine in the house.

Inside the home authorities found 19.57 grams of methamphetamine, 9.13 grams of cocaine, $900 and other drug paraphernalia.

Lanning has been charged with possession with intent to deliver and distribute methamphetamine, a class D felony, two counts possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine, a class F felony, maintaining a drug trafficking place, class I felony and misdemeanor possession of drug paraphernalia.

All of these charges come with add-ons such as a party to a crime and repeater.

Lindmeier is facing similar charges that come with the same add-ons. She is charged with possession with intent to deliver cocaine, a class E felony, possession of methamphetamine, class I felony and three misdemeanor counts of possession of drug paraphernalia.

Lindmeier will be in court for an adjourned initial appearance later this month while Lanning has a preliminary hearing set for August.

the 10th Senate District. I have a passion for the families of Western Wisconsin succeeding, and if I am honored to be elected, I will work hard to help build a positive future for all of us,” Link said in a statement.

Rob Stafsholt (R-New Richmond) is the other Republican running for the State Senate seat. He currently serves as the District 29 State Assembly representative. He announced the start of his campaign for State Senate last November at Brickfield Brewery in Grantsburg alongside fellow assembly member Gae Magnafici.

Stafsholt told a crowd that he is a fourth-generation Wisconsin Farmer and that Schachtner “has done nothing in Madison besides vote with democratic governor Tony Evers and other Madison liberals.”

Link and Stafsholt will square off in the Aug. 11 primary contest.

State Senate District 10 covers Burnett, Dunn, Pierce, Polk, and St. Croix counties.

It includes the towns of Anderson, Daniels, Grantsburg, Lincoln, Meenon, Siren, Trade Lake, West Marshland, Wood River, and the Villages of Grantsburg, Siren and Webster.

WISCONSIN STATE ASSEMBY In the Wisconsin State Assembly, it looks like there will be a rematch from 2018 between incumbent Gae Magnafici (R-Dresser) and Kim Butler (D-Balsam Lake).

The seat was previously held by Adam Jarchow.

“Gae hasn’t demonstrated the kind

of leadership and accessibility to her constituents that we deserve from an Assembly representative,” Butler said in a statement. “Both parties need to work together, but Gae votes with Speaker Robin Vos 100% of the time.

Solutions need to be tailored for our area, not for a political party. I will be a strong and independent voice, who likes to dig deep into policy and is open to input from all sides.”

Magnafici announced her decision to run for re-election earlier this year.

“I have been a fiscal and social conservative all my life and supported candidates with these views,” Magnafici said.

“After much consideration, I have decided to announce my intention to run for re-election for the State Assembly from the 28th District. Since retiring after 35 years as a Pediatric Registered Nurse (specializing in Oncology, ER, medical-surgical, sedation, NICU and PICU) and 12 years working for the Department of Mental Health, I bring a different perspective to the table from working with people in difficult and critical situations.”

Butler and Magnafici currently are both running unopposed in the August 11 primary.

Assembly District 28 sits in Polk, Burnett and St. Croix counties. It includes the towns of Anderson, Daniels, Grantsburg, Lincoln, Meenon, Siren, Trade Lake, West Marshland, Wood River and the Villages of Grantsburg, Siren and Webster.

A little late, with a side of history

I

t doesn’t make any sense why the Confederate flag is still a thing in this country.

The Confederate States of America existed from 1861 through 1865. For four years they fought against the United States of America to keep the institution of slavery intact and keep the southern way of life alive.

It was odd when NASCAR announced they were no longer allowing the confederate flag. They are talking about the confederate battle flag, not the confederate flag.

“The presence of the confederate flag at NASCAR events run contrary to our commitment to providing a welcoming and inclusive environment for all fans,” NASCAR wrote in a statement on Twitter.

Sentinel Immediately after the post went online the public outrage began.

Editor Some people wrote that they will Jonathan Richie never watch NASCAR again due to this decision and one driver, Ray Ciccarelli, announced he would never race with the company again.

Ciccarelli was a part-time driver of the NASCAR Gander RV & Outdoors Truck Series, with zero career victories.

This is nothing new. Everybody knows that the north or United States won the Civil War, but it certainly seems that the south won the peace.

When the United Daughters of the Confederacy was started in 1894, it was done to memorialize the men who died fighting in the Civil War but also to memorialize their forgotten way of life.

None of those women would grow up to be true southern belles. They would not live on a 100-acre plantation with slaves doing everything for them but chewing their food.

The United Daughters of the Confederacy are the same group that put up a large majority of the Confederate monuments in this country.

This was also after the era of reconstruction in the south when former slaves voted, ran for public office and served in U.S. Congress. When reconstruction ended in 1877, many hurdles were put up to make it difficult for black people to vote and public lynching of black people began.

The use of the Confederate Flag and the Confederate monuments have two meanings, in my opinion. One is to honor the heritage of a racist government and the other is to demean black people.

Imagine if people were enslaved by aliens. Then, years later, when the aliens freed us they put up a bunch of statues for the worst of our former alien overlords.

The other aliens would say, “It’s an honor to our heritage.” Then all the humans would say, “But it’s a symbol of destruction of our way of life.”

Then the aliens yell back, “Heritage!”

I think this should have been settled 150 years ago. Hopefully, it can be settled now.

unday is Father’s Day, a time to remember and honor the paterfamilias, father, the head of the household, pop, dad -- whatever his moniker at your house, Sunday is the day to pause and appreciate his contributions to who you are as a person.

I have said numerous times, and will continue to say it, the ‘nuclear’ family: mother, father and children is the bedrock foundation of our civilization. While we can carry on without this structure, the stress on the rest of society will be great and expensive.

I by no means mean to disparage single parents. These folks have to From the Publisher’s be both the mother and the father to their children. It is difficult enough Desk being one, I can’t image the pressure of having to be both.

Tom Stangl My parents have both passed, so my ibli d I are now the “older” generation, and, as siblings and those of you who are in the same place can attest, it is a strange place to be, especially at holidays like Mother’s and Father’s Day. My father, who regular readers of this column will know as “The Chief” worked as a mechanic at the Chevrolet and later Buick dealership in the small town where I grew up. His specialty was the Turbo-Hydramatic automatic transmission that General Motors used from the 1960s to the 1980s.

He stood on a concrete floor all day working to provide for a wife and six children. My mother worked part time as a nurse, which helped our family’s income later, but make no mistake, the Chief was the breadwinner.

It was never a good idea as a child to wake the Chief, whether he was napping after lunch or dozing off watching television after supper. The phrase “don’t poke the bear” comes to mind. It may be tempting, but it never ends well.

My generation was taught by our mothers to leave our fathers alone.

I have heard that much of who we are is formed by our parents and our observations of who they are as men and women, husband and wife, father and mother.

From the Chief, I learned the value of work and the importance of following through on commitments. If you said you were going to do something, you did it.

It didn’t matter if someone else didn’t follow through, what mattered was that you did.

We didn’t have much money growing up. Six kids, one income, do the math. But we didn’t go hungry or naked and had a roof over our heads. That didn’t stop us as foolish young children from asking for things we really didn’t need.

The Chief had a real gem for such requests, one that I used on my children and I hope to live long enough to see my grandchildren hear it from the lips of my children: “People in Hell want ice water.” Succinct and to the point, but makes you think. Works on many levels.

Good or bad, I realize that I am the sum of my experiences and have been heavily influenced by my father.

For that, I will always be grateful.

Happy Father’s Day. As always, I welcome your comments. You can reach me by email at tstangl@theameryfreepress.com, telephone 715-268-8101 or write me at P.O. Box 424, Amery, WI, 54001.

Thanks for reading I’ll keep in touch. Feel free to do the same.

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.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR

FINISH CARPENTERS WANTED

Hello, Library Friends, The community is what makes Grantsburg such a special place and I have been fortunate to experience its warmth while working at the public library. Sure, it’s been enjoyable to work with books every day, but my reason for loving my job is the people. My coworkers, Board, and the many wonderful community members that come into the library to attend programs, check out books or just to hang out.

I have learned that the value of the public library is as a community gathering place, a safe spot, and a space to grow one’s mind.

Over the past years, we have accomplished so much, witnessed the expansion of the learning center, turned the library into Whoville during the holidays, and recently renovated the children’s area.

We’ve completed a Long-Range Plan which provided us with an exciting and engaging vision for the future of the library, and it has been thrilling to see that future begin to emerge. Grantsburg Public

Kelley-Johsnon at one of the many events put on by the Grantsburg Public Library.

Library is much more connected to its community today, and I am proud to have been a part of it.

It is with both sorrows for what I will miss about Grantsburg and excitement for what comes next that I would like to inform you that I have accepted a library director position with Somerset Public Library in St. Croix County. I notified the Board of my resignation on June 3 and

over the next few weeks, I will be working at both libraries to aid in the transition.

I will sing the praises of the Board, staff and Grantsburg library community until my dying days.

Thank you, library friends. I will miss each of you.

Assembly Democrats to face more GOP opponents than in 2018 Assembly Democrats will face 22 more contested races this November than they did in 2018. Still, only a handful of those seats were even close to competitive in the 2016 presidential race, and only one is among Republicans’ top targets this fall.

Rep. Nick Milroy, D-South Range, didn’t have an opponent in 2018 or 2016. But Donald Trump only lost his northern Wisconsin seat by 3 points four years ago, and Milroy is a top target for Republicans as they push for a two-thirds super majority in both legislative bodies to negate Gov. Tony Evers’ veto power.

Besides Milroy’s district, only three other seats on the list that drew GOP candidates this year were within single digits in the 2016 election: The 54th, where Clinton won by 5 points in taking 48.5 percent of the vote and Assembly Minority Leader Gordon Hintz, D-Oshkosh,

is up for reelection; The 71st, where Clinton took 49.7 percent and beat Trump by 7 points; Rep. Katrina Shankland, D-Stevens Point, is up for reelection there; The 81st, where Clinton won by 8 points as she took 50.8 percent of the vote; Rep. Dave Considine, D-Baraboo, is up for reelection.

Republicans currently hold the chamber 63-36 and would need to net three more seats this fall to reach a super majority.

In the 2018 midterms, Democrats ran uncontested in 29 of the 36 seats they won.

After the June 1 nomination paper filing deadline, only seven Assembly seats, all in Madison or Milwaukee, will have no GOP presence.

And of those seven seats, six are occupied by incumbents looking to get reelected.

announced in March she wouldn’t seek another term for the 76th AD. Eight Democrats are looking to fill her seat, but no Republicans threw their name in the ring.

Additionally, fewer Assembly Republicans will face a Democratic opponent this year compared to last cycle.

A total of 12 GOP candidates go uncontested this round, while only seven had no opponent in 2018. All 12 seats have incumbents seeking another term.

Meanwhile in the Senate, there are five one-party races this time around compared to four last time: three Democrat and two GOP.

Head winds on Green Bay AN OUTDOORSMAN’S JOURNAL MARK WALTERS

Hello friends, This week’s column is about a fishing trip that I went on to Green Bay. My plan was to spend about 48-hours in my 18.6 War Eagle fishing for walleye and living in a boat. My golden retrievers Fire and Ruby would be my companions along with a new little buddy that you are about to read about.

Friday, June 5 High 81, low 52 This column is going to be all over the map with info.

This morning before I even left the house, I saw Fire was carrying something and it turned out to be a baby rabbit that did not have its eyes open. Reality told me that it was going to die unless I tried to save it. I went to town, purchased a container of Similac powdered baby formula, and now there were four of us for this trip.

So, it is late Friday afternoon, I am at the boat landing on the Suamico River and preparing to launch. All my fishing reports are of very slow fishing, I talk to two maybe 14-year-old boys that are shore fishing and all they have is a pile of goby fish- “invasive species.�

The captain and his crew of three head out to sea with high hopes for a great trip. When I reached the big water of the bay between Long Tail Point and Little Tail Point, I was once again greeted by a strong north wind that was not predicted.

Trolling with a big rig and keeping three lines running correctly is a challenge when fishing alone in high seas. I did not care as I had about 48-hours to play.

My main plan of attack would be trolling crankbaits and crawler harnesses which are standard tactics for walleye on Green Bay! A little side note, this summer my daughter Selina is working as an intern in the removal of invasive plant species.

So, I am trolling, my new pal “Patch� the bunny is still alive, and I am doing my best to catch a walleye.

I did land four sheepshead and five striped bass. Well after dark I headed over to the north side of Long Tail Point where my plan was to drop anchor in three feet of water and sleep on the floor of my boat.

About that time the wind came back and did not let go, my anchor slowly gave way and pushed my rig into shore. Something very cool was there, there were a lot of bow fishermen out tonight. I think that bow fisher-

men are one of the hardiest breeds of humans that you will find.

They spend the night navigating in the dark, can fabricate and wire a boat into a fighting machine, shoot carp with a bow and arrow under adverse conditions, and then drive home when the sun comes up.

I must tell you, I had little Patch sleeping right next to me to keep him warm, and between the bow fishermen, the bunny, and the wind, sleep was not to be.

Saturday, June 6 High 83, low 54 My friends, there is change coming in the outdoor world and here are some examples. Long term high water is taking out Long Tail and Little Tail Points, it is simply eroding them away with the wind. High water was also obvious on the road at the boat landing as parts of it are simply under water. I already wrote about the goby and today when I would check my lines if there were weeds on them there were dozens of baby zebra mussels in the weeds.

Today I watched a couple of different guides and their clients enjoying a day on the water and I kept thinking how does a guide adjust to all of the north winds that kick the heck out of everything out here?

My guess would be lots of cancellations.

The entire day I did my best to catch a limit of walleye but ended up with four of which only one was legal. I took a good look at the erosion of Long Tail and Little Tail and I had plans for one more night in the boat when I received a text that said that the wind was going to switch to the east and blow hard.

At 7 p.m. tonight after 26 hours in the boat I started trolling towards the landing 3-miles away. The wind decided for me that I needed to quit fishing and head in. Though it was a Saturday evening I only saw two other boats on the water and when all three of us made it to safety we smiled at each other like, “Congrats, ya made it back.�

I have been home five days and Patch is still alive!

Sunset.

Webster named snowmobilefriendly award

Second case of virus of county resident

JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

The Village of Webster is now an official snowmobile friendly community following a short presentation by local representatives.

Sue Smedegard of Association of Wisconsin Snowmobile Clubs (AWSC) presented the village board with the award which designates Webster as being a snowmobile friendly community.

Webster now has two large signs that will be prominently placed throughout the village.

Wonderland Snow Trails is the club affiliated with Webster and their members are looking into making smaller signs for individuals.

Smedegard concluded, “Thank you for your support over the years.”

Burnett County has a second confirmed case of COVID-19, according to public health officials.

In a press release the Burnett County Public Health stated they have been notified of a second confirmed case of the coronavirus. The individual is currently hospitalized with contact tracing and an investigation underway.

Burnett County Department of Health & Human Services stressed that although the Safer-at-Home order is no longer in affect the virus is still a threat.

“Burnett County Public Health and the Burnett County COVID-19 Response Team have been preparing for a positive case of COVID-19 and are taking the necessary steps to limit further spread,” a press release

It takes a village to build a Hammock Village

Barb Anderson – Grantsburg Teacher of the Year Each year the Grantsburg Rotary Club recognizes one of the excellent teachers from the Grantsburg School District. Barb Anderson was nominated for the Teacher of the Year Award by Grantsburg Elementary Principal, Ibby Olson.

Barb brings so many gifts and talents to the Grantsburg School District. She started the 4K Little Pirates program. Barb knows how to focus on the purpose of her program, which is to build a lifelong love of learning. Barb’s classroom has a wide variety of activities.

Students are given a lot of time to play and build relationships. She provides them with a “toolbox”

stated. “The order is gone, the virus in not.”

Everyone can do their part to stop the spread of COVID-19.

Please remember: • Stay home. Avoid social gatherings with anyone other than people who live in your home.

• People should not be traveling except to go to the grocery store, the doctor, to pick up necessary items or go to and from work. If you go out, practice physical distancing from others, staying 6 feet apart.

• Wash your hands with warm soap and water for at least 20 seconds.

• Cover your mouth when you cough/sneeze.

• Avoid touching your face.

• If you get sick, call your hospital/doctor before going in.

to solve their own problems and guides them in a purposeful way through the process.

Bard is also very involved in other ways that lend to the advancement of our district, her program, and Nelson School. She is the facilitator for her 4K team and creased weekly agendas, leads book studies, and conducts a weekly meeting with her team. She not only teaches 4K and Early Childhood, but she is also a special education case manager.

Principal Ibby Olson stated that, “Barb is one of a kind and we are lucky to have her at the Grantsburg School District.”

FREDERIC–– The unofficial start of summer is behind us and now, more than ever, the kids residing at Northwest Passage are ready to get outside! While the world beyond their campuses is unpredictable and ever-changing the need for a sense of safety and healthy ways to tolerate distress persist in the children receiv-

ing mental health treatment at Northwest Passage. Unfettered access to the outdoors has proven to be a great asset during the coronavirus pandemic. With their young residents facing continued isolation from their families and the inability to stray too far from campus, the staff at Northwest Passage needed to create more outdoor spaces and activities on campus to keep the youth occupied and engaged.

Enter the Hammock Village! A hammock village consists of 10 colorful hammocks hanging between a group of poles

set in a circular pattern. Sails attached to the top of the poles offer protection from the hot summer sun. The Hammock Village offers kids and staff a place to congregate, at a safe distance, to enjoy nature as they participate in group therapy sessions, read or study for school, or just relax and reflect.

With initial plans in place to construct a Hammock Village on Northwest Passage’s Prairieview campus in Frederic, a call went out for donations to make the project a reality. Donors responded in force, with over 73 individuals making donations towards the project. The tremendous response not only allowed for completion of a Hammock Village on the Prairieview campus, but enabled construction to begin on a second Hammock Village to be located on Northwest Passage’s Riverside campus in Webster.

Thanks to Northwest Passage’s “village” of supporters, young people receiving mental health treatment at Northwest Passage this summer will have an exciting new place to connect and grow on their path to hope and healing.

Flashback: Pirates win regional final Previously published in June 9, 2010 edition of Sentinel BOYCEVILLE–– Yes, it seems that the Pirate boys are peaking at the right time of the year. This may be an old saying, but it is something you should look into.

The Pirates jumped on the scoring wagon in the first inning. Daniel Biorn singled to get to first base. Next it was time for small ball. Dylan Marohn sac bunted Biorn to second. But the wheels of Marohn put him safe at first as well. Trevor Thompson hit a fielder’s choice, but again, the speedy feet and a small oops by the Boyceville defense gave the Pirates their first run of the game.

Next to the plate was Austin Eskola. Before this game started, head coach Pete Johnson looked at the field and told Eskola this was his kind of park.

Well it was, and Eskola put a hit on a ball and sent it where no one could catch it- over the outfield fence. This was a three-run home run. The Pirates had a four to zero lead at the halfway point of the first.

The Boyceville Bulldogs answered right back, scoring four runs in their half of the inning. This was on five hits, one hit a double from Ryan Bloom.

The Purple boys didn’t let this slow them down at all for their second at-bat. Gavin Meyer headed to the plate first.

He ripped a hard single to get the Pirates leadoff man on the bags.

Next was Biorn and he drew a walk and now there were two on the bases.

Russ Thoreen dug his cleats in next. We need to change Thoreen’s name to “Mr. Double” because that is just what he did again, driving Meyer and Biorn. That was it for Grantsburg in the second.

With a pitching change for the Pirates, the defense was starting to flex a little muscle, shutting down the Bulldogs one-two-three. So at the end of two innings played, the Pirates had a six to four lead.

The third inning saw the Pirates add five more runs and batted all nine players. Jimmy Nelson got things under way with a walk. Joe Engelhart moved Nelson into scoring position but was out at first.

Meyer singled in Nelson for the first run of the inning.

Biorn reached on an error and Marohn singled to load the bases.

Thoreen slipped a little and only singled, but scored a run. Nolan Hanson was next and he drove the ball deep into center field, scoring two runs off this hit.

The Pirates scored one unearned run on a passed ball this inning, so at the halfway mark of the third, the score was 11-4.

Nelson made his way back to the mound for his second inning of pitching, and again it was a one-two-three in-

ning for the Pirates on defense. Nelson struck one out, had a line-drive hit to Engelhart at second, and one long ball hit to Cole White out in right field. Both of these balls were caught with ease.

Grantsburg added another run in the fourth. Meyer walked and then stole second. Biorn was next. He drove in Meyer with a standup double. 12-4 was a score at this time and the Pirates were just flying. Hanson took over pitching duties for the Pirates at the bottom of the fourth. Again it was a one-two-three inning for the Bulldogs.

The Pirates didn’t score again during this game, and one could tell the arms of Nelson and Hanson were tired from pitching the day before. Each pitcher saw limited time on the mound.

The Bulldogs did score three runs in the bottom of the fifth, so it was time to put in the closer, Trevor Thompson.

With a short warm-up time allowed, Thompson worked quickly through the Bulldog line-up to end the game.

Like things should be, the final out was recorded on a come-backer to Thompson, over to Seth Coy at first, and the Regional Championship trophy was heading to Grantsburg with a final score of 12-7.

Eid gets a hole in one Collin Eid of Siren got a hole in one on June 5, 2020 at Fox Run Golf Course in Webster.

He used a 9 iron on the 101-yard, par 3 hole number 8, on the Regulation Course.

Congratulations Collin!

Flashback: Webster boys track second at State Previously published in June 9, 2010 edition of Sentinel LA CROSSE–– It was nothing but fingernail biting at the end of the State track meet for the Webster Tiger boys. They had a lead late into this one, but a final charge by Central Wisconsin Catholic made things too close to call.

This was an exciting time, but at the end it was a tie. No one can complain about beating 146 other schools in our state.

The boys 4x400 relay which includes Dan Pope, Karl Weber, Bryan Krause and Chaz Heinz, ran a fast time, place sixth in the prelims and taking seventh in the finals with a 3:29.

In the 4x800 relay, Jack Taylor, Devin Greene, Heinz and Krause broke the school record beating the old mark by three

seconds in a time of 8:06. They took a fifth place finish. Their

time would have won it last year, but the other teams had a quicker day this year.

Bryan Krause proved to the fans what is meant by leaning into the finish line in the 800 meter run. His lean and tumble broke another school record that has stood since ’92 or ’93. Krause brought home a third place finish for his effort with a time of 1:57.

Taylor was just edged out of third place in the mile run. He did put in his best effort of the year with a time of 4:25.

The 3200 meter saw another Taylor personal best at 9:42, putting him on the podium with a second place finish.

Mason Kriegel was injured at the Sectional meet so he only pole vaulted 12’6”. Before the injury, he had cleared 13’6” twice this year.

Kyler Liljenberg placed fifth

in the discus, throwing 138’11”.

At the end of the meet, when pictures were all taken, it seemed the C.W.C. school had a little more juice in the tank.

They took off with the trophy to make Webster wait until another one can be made to place in the school’s trophy case back home.

For the Webster girls, the 4x200 relay team of Alyssa Main, Kendra Spurgeon, Angel Christianson and Melissa Gustavson ran as fast as they ever had, breaking the school record for a fourth time this year. But the other teams were just a little faster this time around, and the girls were unable to advance out of the preliminaries.

On a sad note, the Tiger boys head coach, Jeff Postler, is calling his head coaching days over. He has been on the track

for 32 years, 13 of them as head coach. Postler will help out the program as needed.

He is and always will be a huge part in the Webster school as well as the track team.

The Luck boys finished 35th overall tied with McDonnell Central and Cameron. A.J. Walsh-Brenizer brought home an impressive fifth place finish in the pole vault with a height of 13’.

Landen Strilzuk finished tenth in the long jump with a distance of 20’ 4 3/4”. Roger Steen rounded out the points for the Cardinals with a sixth place finish in the discus with a throw of 136’ 5”.

Seth Stoner of Siren grabbed the number 11 spot with a throw of 29’4”.

Carol married Carl A. Peterson on Aug. 30, 1952 at the English Lutheran Church in Grantsburg. To this family four children were born; David, Janet, Marilyn and Dale. The family was fortunate to adopt a fifth child, Scott, a few years later.

Carol was a Bible study leader and Sunday school teacher at Trinity Lutheran Church and later at Calvary Covenant Church. The family was honored to be named Wisconsin Farm Family of the Year in the 1960s.

Carol was known as an excellent cook who loved being in the kitchen. She lived out her life knowing the Lord Jesus Christ until her life on earth was done and went to be with the Lord, a life’s race well run and lived for her Savior.

Carol was preceded in death by her parents; her husband, Carl A. Peterson on Sept. 20, 1997; her son, David on March 6, 2003; her infant grandson, Adam; and siblings Clarence Johnson, Vernon Johnson, Marion Johnson, Evelyn Jorgenson, Noble Hanson and Dorothy Jones.

Katrina Grace Budge, 58, of Frederic, passed away unexpectedly June 9, 2020 at Regions Hospital in St. Paul, Minn.

Katie was born on May 19, 1962 to parents Janice (Carlsson) and Michael Budge.

Katie had what our family rrefers to as the “Budge Ticke er” and her heart decided it h had just enough of this world.

K Katie’s form of heaven will ssurely include lots of animals a and a cooler stocked with H High Life. She was an animal p person more than a people p person and honestly there’s n nothing wrong with that.

She enjoyed watching the Vikings and giving people crap about it. In her younger years she spent her time camping and fishing and often took her younger brothers and sisters, instilling in each of them a deep love for the outdoors.

Katie loved her nieces and her great-nephews. She was a wonderful aunt, teaching them where to look for worms (always under an old log) how to bait a hook and how to cast a line. She enjoyed sitting at the end of the dock with her family, watching the birds and shooting the you-know-what.

Katie was a good cook but was pigeonholed into making and remaking a couple of her signature dishes – beer can chicken and spinach dip. She hated peas till the very end—We will go on record saying she was the pickiest eater of Jan’s six kids. We miss her terribly, but will think of her every time we see a bear or eagle or anything else she enjoyed running into.

Preceding Katie in death is her father, Michael P. Budge, little brother Michael J. Budge and brother-inlaw Thomas Gall.

Katie is survived by her mother, Janice Budge; siblings Scott Budge, Kari Budge, Mark (Tiffany) Budge and Miki (Tim) Budge; nieces Erin (Travis) Vogland, Emily (Brian) Ohmann, Kara Gall, Kenna Gall, Jordan Meaney, Graycee Budge, Delaney Budge and Quinn Budge; nephews Jake Meaney and Riley Budge; great nieces and nephews Jade, Kaden, Reece, Jackson and Henry; and so many other relatives and friends.

Katie will be laid to rest at the Jackson Cemetery with close family and friends by her side. A celebration of life will follow Friday, June 19 at The Shop Bar & Grill from 12 p.m. – 2 p.m.

Arrangements have been entrusted to SwedbergTaylor Funeral Home in Webster. Online condolences can be made at www.swedberg-Taylor.com.

What does it mean to fear God?

Ben McClellan First Baptist Church

Graduation season has me thinking, 13 years of schooling before graduation then off to college. All of it provides the opportunity to have a career. Education and knowledge are somewhat valuable pursuits in this life, those who have them seem to do well.

The problem is that 10 out of 10 humans die, and all our knowledge and education cannot stop death. So, what do we do? How are we supposed to go about our lives?

The Bible has three whole books dedicated to wisdom. They all take a different perspective on wisdom, yet they all come to a very similar conclusion of how we should live. Proverbs 1:7 says, “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of

knowledge.” Ecclesiastes 12:13 says, “Fear God and keep His commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.”

Both books on wisdom give us a key picture into what true wisdom entails, fearing God. So, what does it mean to fear God? This isn’t a fear like some have of the dark or spiders. It is an acknowledgement that God is in control, and not only that He is in control but that He rules.

This is where we all fail. You see we want to rule our world. We want to be in control. If God is in control, but we want control then we are not for God we are against Him. This is the sad reality for all humans, it is why we all face

death; it is what God calls sin. But that is not the end of the story.

Even though we are enemies of God by our own choices, He has made a way for us to be returned to Him, and once again fear Him. Christ died on the cross for our sins, so that we might be brought near to God (1 Peter 3:18). He died the death that our treason deserved, so that we could have life in Him.

BURNETT COUNTY SENTINEL

JUNE 17, 2020 www.burnettcountysentinel.com

Upper St. Croix Parish United Methodist Church holds Drive-In Service The Upper St. Croix Parish United Methodist Church had a “Drive-In Service” at the Atlas Park in Luck. For safety reasons, they have not decided on a service inside of the church building yet.

Instead, they decided to have Sunday service at the Atlas Park. People stayed in their vehicles during the

service, listening to sermons and songs through their car audio. If they wanted to leave their vehicles, they were encouraged to wear a mask and practice social distancing.

They had Sunday services there for two weeks, and plan to have it there for a few more weeks until they are sure it is safe to gather in the church.

Community Farm offers Fresh Produce, Piece of Mind During Uncertain Times

BY C.L. SILL Osceola Sun

P

hiladelphia Community Farm was one of the first community supported agriculture (CSA) operations in the state.

Opened in 1989, the non-profit farm provides fresh produce to local customers, but has also moved into education and outreach.

In addition to the CSA, the farm operates a folk school that hosts workshops, summer camps and other retreats for anyone looking for a little peace and quiet. This has been especially important in 2020, as the COVID-19 pandemic and nationwide civil unrest has added stress to an already on-edge country.

“Lately we’ve been working to be a little more of a sanctuary for people of color and the queer community,” said owner Christina Beck. “To have a rural arts space for folk in those communities is rare.”

Beck said the farm has

always been conscious of supporting black communities, but that they’ve tried to further increase that support since the death of George Floyd and the unrest that’s followed.

“Being this close to the cities, that’s a role we really want to fill,” Beck said. “So we try to prioritize workshops and retreats that are requested by those communities.”

Since the unrest began the farm has tried to promote themselves as a place for people to come who need to get away from the city and the chaos.

“We put our name on the list for people from the BIPOC (black, indigenous and people of color) community to come out here and just get a break and recover from what has been a really traumatic ten days,” she said. “Any people of color who want to get out of the city and take a break, or rejuvenate or plan or connect with nature, anything — they can come.”

The farm has plenty of space available for anyone

who may want to visit.

“We have the retreat house that has some availability and we’ve also created a separate entrance, bathroom, living room and bedroom in the big farmhouse that’s also available,” Beck said. “And unlimited camping, there’s so much space available.”

The farm is also helping out with food donations. In addition to their typical CSA shares, they have what they call a ‘food justice share,’ where half of a customer’s order is donated to people in need. Right now that food is all being sent to areas of the Twin Cities that have been affected by the protests and riots. Beck said she feels like it’s the farm’s duty to help in any way possible.

“Ten years ago I might have said we were really proud and happy to be able to help,” she said. “But right now I think we all agree that is just a matter ‘of course.’ Of course we should be there and whatever it takes we will SEE COMMUNITY FARM, PAGE 3

be there. It builds a sense of community. It makes me feel like the needs of all people, can and will be met in new ways.”

All of this is further complicated by a global pandemic. Beck said while coronavirus has changed many aspects of life, not all of the changes have been negative.

“One aspect that’s often overlooked that feels very alive right now is simplicity. We’re in an instagram culture.

We want what we want now,” she said.

“But now we’ve all simplified and we’re all cooking more.”

Beck said the importance of fresh, local food has never been more important, both for sustainability and

the emotional health of communities in need.

“I feel like everything is tied in,”

she said. “Emotional, social, intellectual and physical well being is all connected.”

We take pride in producing great tasting ales, stouts, porters and other specialty beers. Our taproom is simple but comfortable and continuing to evolve in features as well character. We are family and dog friendly. We do not prepare or serve food but you are welcome to bring your own or have it delivered by the many great local establishments. Watch our Events calendar on Facebook, Untappd and on our website for food trucks and vendors.
