West Marshland residents voice concerns about high water levels in Crex Meadows

Victim identiﬁed in fatal crash Utility crew discovered scene

JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

The Burnett County Medical Examiner confirmed on Tuesday that Donald Meizo, 60, of Webster was the victim of the fatal accident last week. On Friday the Sheriff’s office released a statement saying they received a report of a single-vehicle crash on County Road A near East Devils Lake Road in the Town of Meenon. Electric utility crews working on overhead lines in this area discovered the crash and called 911. Their initial investigation indicates that Meizo’s 1997 BMW coupe had been traveling westbound on County Road A when it left the roadway as it navigated a curve west of East Devils Lake Road, entered the ditch at a high rate of speed, became airborne and overturned before landing in a heavily wooded area. The crash was not visible from the roadway, and initial investigation indicates that the crash had likely occurred at least 48 hours prior to being discovered. Investigators said Meizo was ejected from the vehicle and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Burnett County Medical Examiner. Webster Fire Department and North Memorial Ambulance also responded to this incident. Burnett County Sheriff’s Chief Deputy Scott Burns did not have any update when the Sentinel went to print. The crash remains under investigation as the Sheriff’s Office continues it’s with crash reconstruction of the scene of the fatal accident.

WEST MARSHLAND––More than 60 people were in attendance for a listening session hosted at the West Marshland Town Hall last week in hopes of explaining their grievances with the water levels in Crex Meadows, which are monitored by the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR). Their overall message was that the current water levels at the Crex dikes affects their properties due to over-saturation and standing water. This is having negative effects on their land, houses, and property overall and they were asking for a resolution. The issue of flooding Crex Meadows is a topic residents have been asking the DNR about for years and over time have reached out to Rep. Adam Jarchow. He said that he had heard from enough constituents, and thought a sit-down listening session would be the best way to move forward. “The DNR cares what you think because it’s an election year,” Jarchow said. Kyle Anderson and Steve Hoffman of the DNR attended the meeting to get a better understanding of what the residents are dealing with and the issues they are having with the water. They both work at Crex Meadows, Anderson is the Property Supervisor and Hoffman is Wildlife Area Supervisor. SEE JARCHOW, PAGE 2

Bird tests positive for west nile virus in Burnett County The Burnett County Health Department reports a dead crow found in Burnett County on August 13, 2018 has tested positive for West Nile virus. This is the first bird that tested positive for West Nile virus in Burnett County since surveillance for the mosquito-transmitted virus began May 1. “The positive bird means that residents of Burnett County need to be more

vigilant in their personal protective measures to prevent mosquito bites,” Sarah Miller, Interim Health Officer said. West Nile virus is spread to humans through the bite of an infected mosquito. Mosquitoes acquire the virus by feeding on infected birds. “Burnett County residents should be aware of West Nile virus and take some simple steps to protect themselves

against mosquito bites,” Miller said. “West Nile virus is here to stay, so the best way to avoid the disease is to reduce exposure to and eliminate breeding grounds for mosquitoes.” The Burnett County Health Department recommends the following: • Limit time spent outside at dawn and dusk, when SEE WEST NILE, PAGE 2

JARCHOW: Residents hoping for a resolution on water levels near Crex Meadows CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Jarchow also asked Connie Antonunk, DNR Field Investigator to attend the meeting. Antonunk said she would be taking notes and getting them back to DNR Secretary Dan Meyer in Madison. The main concerns the residents have are, does the DNR understand what they’re doing when they flood Crex Meadows and do they understand how it affects surrounding property owners? One of the topics brought up by a couple of different people is that a colorful waxy/oily film sits on top of any resting water, whether it be surface water or well water. “It looks like somebody threw some oil in the water. It sits on there like a film,” Tony Nelson said. When the crowd was asked how many have seen this oily substance on their property water, a majority raised their hands. Nelson and his wife Kerri Harter had a 65-foot well drilled in 2001. “We had ten years of wonderful water,” Nelson said. “In the spring of 2011 water started backing up on our property. I drove my tractor through water to get to the backside of my 40 and the water was up to the axles,” Nelson held his hand to the height of over two feet from the ground. Harter then gave a detailed timeline of their high water issues and the resulting costly well repairs they’ve experienced, due to excessive iron bacteria now present in their water. “For 35 years people have been hauling water from my place for their own purposes,” Lonnie Nordstrom said of the farm that has been family operated for 150 years. “Last year, for the first time, I had to go to someone else to get my water.” Duke Tucker had done an abundance of research on this topic. He spoke with a U.S. Geological Survey hydrologist to better figure out ground water flow in an attempt to understand the DNR reasoning for saturation and flooding of private property near Crex Meadows. “The DNR never asked permission to keep water on our property,” Tucker

At left, Like most residents, Duke Tucker came to the meeting looking for answers from the DNR. He also brought extensive data on elevation and ground water ﬂowage across the town.

“You are being heard at the highest level of the DNR,” Connie Antonuk said. She added she will bring her information back to DNR Secretary Dan Meyer.

stated while grasping his binder full of data. “The DNR does not pay our property taxes.” Tucker added that his name and his wife’s name appear in the plat book and that it did not include parentheses showing that it was managed by the DNR and special interests. He also stated that according to the official management plan for the Crex Meadows, herbicides are used on the dikes, which ultimately end up in drinking water. He concluded his initial statement by saying he dislikes when people use the DNR as a whipping boy. “I think there is an educational problem with the Crex Meadows staff,” Tucker said. Wayne Lake, of Lake Construction, explained he has raised a number of basements in the area because of flooding. That has led to less headroom and it also lowers the homes re-sale value. This led to a number of people explaining that they need to run a sumppump all year long in their basement which effects their energy bill as well as potential re-sale value.

Mark Baker lives near Iron Creek, he said it’s not a creek anymore, it’s just standing water. “It has no flow at all. It should be flowing to the St. Croix River, but it’s not,” Baker said. “It would be great if it was flowing and I could do some fishing in there.” He also explained that his drinking water is orange and has to run all his water through a conditioner. County Supervisor Buzz Byrne was in attendance to gain more awareness for the water levels in Amsterdam Slough near Siren and its effects on Crooked Lake, an issue he has been working on for years. “They’ve turned the slough into a lake,” Byrne said. “They are backing up Crooked Lake and eroding the park there. The water is up at least three feet from where it used to be.”

WEST NILE: take preventative steps to avoid getting the viral infection usually spread by mosquitoes

•

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

mosquitoes are most active. Apply an insect repellant with DEET, IR3535, picaridin, or oil of lemon eucalyptus to exposed skin and clothing. Make sure window and door screens are in good repair to prevent mosquito entry. Prevent mosquitoes from breeding by removing stagnant water from items around your property, such as tin cans, plastic containers, flower pots, discarded tires, roof gutters, and downspouts. Turn over wheelbarrows, wading pools, boats, and canoes when not in use. Change the water in bird baths and pet dishes at least every three days. Clean and chlorinate swimming pools, outdoor saunas, and hot tubs; drain water from pool

covers. • Landscape to prevent water from pooling in low-lying areas, and trim tall grass, weeds, and vines since mosquitoes use these areas to rest during hot daylight hours. The majority of people (80 percent) who are infected with West Nile virus do not get sick. Those who do become ill usually experience mild symptoms such as fever, headache, muscle ache, rash, and fatigue. Less than one percent of people infected with the virus get seriously ill with symptoms that include high fever, muscle weakness, stiff neck, disorientation, mental confusion, tremors, confusion, paralysis, and coma. Older adults and those with compromised immune systems are at greater risk of developing central nervous system illness that can be fatal.

The Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) has monitored the spread of West Nile virus since 2001 among wild birds, horses, mosquitoes, and people. During 2002, the state documented its first human infections and 52 cases were reported that year. During 2017, 51 cases of West Nile virus infection were reported among Wisconsin residents. West Nile virus infections in humans have been reported from June through October; however, most reported becoming ill with West Nile virus in August and September. DHS will continue surveillance for West Nile virus until the end of the mosquito season. To report a sick or dead crow, blue jay, or raven, please call the Dead Bird Reporting Hotline at 1-800-433-1610. For more information on West Nile virus: https://www.dhs. wisconsin.gov/arboviral/westnilevirus.htm

Ray Robbins wanted to know if the DNR really cares about these issues. About 90 minutes into the meeting Town Chair Jeremy Burton said he would like to know what the DNR is going to do about these issues. “I do care about these issues,”Anderson said. He also stated part of his job is providing the best habitat for wildlife in Crex Meadows, which was met by disdain from some members of the audience and a few people asked if they care more about the habitat than the land owners. Jarchow concluded the meeting by thanking the crowd and said that this is how government should work. When enough constituents contact or write letters to (Jarchow’s) office and then they meet and discuss the issue. He also said that DNR Secretary Dan Meyer will have his weekly cabinet meeting with Gov. Walker and should explain this issue to him at that time. “If he doesn’t tell him, I know I will tell the Governor about this,” Jarchow said.

Wisconsin’s birth rate low compared to other states WISCONSIN POLICY FORUM

Compared to other states, Wisconsin’s birth rate is relatively low, ranking 38th of the 50 states and 5.6 percent below the national average of 12.2 births per 1,000 people. Wisconsin’s fertility rate, by contrast, is only slightly lower (0.7 percent) than the national average of 62. Among the states, Wisconsin’s fertility rate is near the median, ranking 28th. States with the highest birth and fertility rates are scattered throughout the West, while those with the lowest rates are clustered in New England. The decline in the state birth rate mirrors a national trend; since 1989, the U.S. and Wisconsin birth rates have fallen by 25.5 percent and 22.3 percent, respectively. When it comes to fertility, however, the state has recently diverged from the rest of the country. Although Wisconsin’s fertility rate remains slightly below the national average, the gap has narrowed substantially in recent years. As recently as 2002, the national rate exceeded the Wisconsin rate by 6.3 babies per 1,000 women of child-bearing age. By 2016, however, the gap had narrowed to 0.4.

Aretha, the Queen of Soul The greatest voice of all time – Aretha Franklin passed away last week and the world has truly lost a beautiful soul. Franklin was a leader for civil and women’s rights her entire life. She sang “Precious Lord, Take My Hand” at Martin Luther King, Jr.’s funeral in 1968. I was in a stage production in high school and part of the role was a backup dancer/singer for “Respect.” The only reason I took the role was so I could do the ‘sock it to me’ part. Leon Russell used to belt out during concerts, “Whew! Sometimes I wish I could sing like Aretha Franklin!” Don’t we all? I tell you if I could sing the hook from Think. “I ain’t Sentinel no psychiatrist, I ain’t no doctor with a degree.” My life would be Editor complete if I could sing that line. Jonathan Richie Her performance at the Filmore West in 1971 is amazing, stop reading this and check it out now, seriously it’s on YouTube – I’ll wait. Franklin was born with an angel’s voice and started singing gospel music in Detroit at New Bethel Baptist Church. She could easily weave in and out of fragile verses and powerful choruses. Her music soothes me. I go through these bouts of depression here and there and there is something about this woman’s voice that does make me happy. I really can’t explain it more than that. “I Say a Little Prayer For You,” “Chain of Fools,” “Think,” and “Respect” were her standards. But I’ve always been a huge fan of her covers because most people don’t know that Aretha was a stellar pianist and arranger of tunes. “Change is Gonna Come” by Sam Cooke, “The Weight” by The Band and even modern tunes like “Rolling in the Deep” by Adele are excellent covers and arguably better than the originals. Even “Respect” was originally recorded by Otis Redding. I will be the first to admit that her version of Eleanor Rigby is monumentally better than the original from the Beatles. Paul McCartney wrote a slow, sorrowful and melancholy tune. Mrs. Franklin begins her version with the dark gospel piano and sings it as if she is Eleanor. The saddest part about all of this is it will continue happening, for me it began in 2001 when George Harrison died, but that’s life. To paraphrase Professor Slughorn, from the Harry Potter books, that’s life I suppose, you go along living and then suddenly poof – it’s over. Lastly, I went to Oktoberfest in Danbury last weekend and it was like a slice of Deutschland in Northern Wisconsin. There was beer and Usinger sausages; I felt completely at home. Gotta question? Gotta tip? It’s easy to contact me, give me a call at 715-463-2341 or shoot me an email editor@burnettcountysentinel.com. See ya next week.

Wonders and miracles coming to a 3D printer It’s been about 30 years since the process that is used in many 3D printers was invented. 3D printers take materials – usually a plastic or polymer — and melt them to form an image that was created using modeling software like computer-aided drafting (CAD). A platform usually moves back and forth under the spot where the heated plastic is From the Publisher’s dripping to make “slices” of the Desk model, gradually creating whatever Tom Stangl has been modeled. Th The process h has grown in capability and affordability over the years as the technology has improved. Once a curiosity or something used in academia or high end manufacturing, the printers are now affordable for home use. The technology’s applications are nearly incalculable, with printers being able to replicate everything from food to auto parts to clothing. The speed and price of what is being made is determined in some measure by how quickly it can be printed and used. There are boutique auto makers who 3D print nearly all of their cars with the exception of the drivetrain. Some air forces, in-

cluding the U.S. Air Force, use 3D printers to create custom replacement parts. Sports shoe manufacturers are exploring custom fitted and custom printed shoes. 3D printers are being used in medical applications to create custom implants and joint replacements. The hearing aid and dental implant business are expected to be heavy users of 3D technology in the coming years. Truly the stuff of wonders and miracles. Recently, I saw news reports about a couple of 3D printing applications that made me wonder if once again technology has advanced before our society’s ethics have had a chance to cope with the unintended consequences. On the bright side, researchers at the University of Minnesota are working on biomedical 3D printing that will use stem cells to hopefully repair nerves in people with severe spinal injuries that have resulted in paralysis. The thought is to 3D print tiny implants that will be able to grow new nerve connections to act as a bridge of sorts to be implanted at the site of a spinal injury, where the guide nurtures the stem cells until they’re able to grow new nerves, connecting the undamaged cells on either side of the injury. How awesome is that?

On the other side of the spectrum is the issue of 3D printed guns. Cody Wilson, a self described “social anarchist” has created and disseminated plans that may be used to create a 3D printed plastic gun. The weapon, known as the “Liberator,” is imagined by Wilson to be the ultimate social leveler. Wilson postulates that when everyone can cheaply produce a weapon, everyone will be safe. To that end, Wilson’s non-profit uploaded plans for the weapon, files that can be outputted to a 3D printer. Wilson’s “Wiki” weapons website was blocked by injunction at the end of July, but not before the plans were downloaded over 10,000 times. Is the genie out of the bottle? Do we need to be worried about terrorists printing and smuggling a gun on board an airliner? No one knows. The case is headed for the courts and expect lots of arguments on both sides. 3D printing will impact our lives in the coming years. I hope we are wise enough to know when the technology should and shouldn’t be used. As always, I welcome your comments.

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.

THE CAPITAL REPORT

Wisconsin gubernatorial ad war begins in earnest after primary WISPOLITICS.COM

Let the gubernatorial campaign games begin! The day after the Aug. 14 primary, the two top candidates, their campaigns and their allies wasted no time in moving onto the general election campaign. Candidates toured the state, ads hit the airwaves and pundits revised their handicapping. Along the way, issue differences between the candidates became clearer. The gubernatorial ad wars started in earnest with new spots from Gov. Scott Walker and the Democratic Governors Association. Walker’s first TV ad of the general election tells viewers “we’re just getting started.” Meanwhile, the Democratic Governors Association started with spots praising Democratic nominee Tony Evers. In Walker’s 30-second statewide ad, the governor pushes to implement several tax cuts, including one for $5,000 over five years for college graduates who live and work in Wisconsin. But Evers, at an Aug. 15 news conference outside Mickey’s Dairy Bar in Madison, said Walker’s plan isn’t enough. “Whatever he’s proposing right now pales as compared to the destruction he’s done to the people of Wisconsin,” Evers said. Evers continued his criticism, arguing Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch have “shredded” Wisconsin values. The state schools superintendent also told reporters he’d “fight back” against negative ads, such as a new GOP ad knocking the state superintendent for not revoking the license of a teacher who allegedly viewed porn on a school computer. Evers defended himself against the ad, which he called “ridiculous.” He argued he was abiding by state

law and later worked to close the loophole preventing him from revoking the teacher’s license. “Simple as that, I was following state law as a constitutional officer,” he said. “That’s what the people of Wisconsin expected of me as state superintendent.” Walker suggested Evers would raise the gas tax by a dollar to increase transportation funding, a measure the state superintendent today didn’t rule out. “If Tony Evers wants to talk about jacking up the tax on gas a buck, I think people deserve to know that,” Walker told conservative Milwaukee radio host Jay Weber. Evers said he’d “support looking at anything.” Among the proposals he named were eliminating some tax credits, reducing the size of state government or increasing the gas tax. “Everything is on the table. All’s I know is what [Walker]’s done has failed,” Evers said. Evers said tolling is also something he’s not ruling out, although he added several studies have “discredited” it. Evers’ campaign manager Maggie Gau later said he “will do what it takes to fix the roads that Scott Walker has allowed to crumble. But [Evers] has never said he would quadruple the gas tax.” Walker defended his handling of transportation, arguing he’s invested more money in transportation than former Democratic Gov. Jim Doyle. He also criticized the idea of raising the gas tax, arguing it’s among the highest in the nation. The Democratic Governors Association, via a group called A Stronger Wisconsin, is launching a new TV ad touting Evers’ career in education. The 30-second ad opens with videos of Walker as the narrator says, “You know who they are, the politicians who only care about politics.”

The spot then switches to a series of images of a younger Evers, as the narrator says, “But then there’s this teacher.” The narrator outlines Evers’ career as a teacher in Baraboo, a principal in Tomah and then state superintendent. “His life’s mission is to make their lives better,” the narrator said as the camera panned to video of Evers laughing with a child. “So you can forget the lobbyists and the politicians, they’ll never change. But Tony Evers won’t play their game.” The narrator closes the spot by saying Evers will prioritize making the state’s roads, health care and schools “work for you and families like yours.” The ad is part of a $1.8 million statewide buy, according to the DGA. The spot comes on the heels of the state GOP announcing what it said was a $500,000 buy targeting Evers over a Middleton teacher who kept his license after viewing porn at school. What’s it all mean? Pundits are predicting a close race. Larry Sabato’s “Crystal Ball” is moving the Wisconsin governor’s race from “leans Republican” to a toss-up. Kyle Kondik, the managing editor, tweeted about the move: “Been evident for a while that Walker is in trouble but we wanted to wait until the primary. Tony Evers seems like the most credible Dem, and he will face Walker.” The Capitol Report is written by editorial staff at WisPolitics.com, a nonpartisan, Madison-based news service that specializes in coverage of government and politics, and is distributed for publication by members of the Wisconsin Newspaper Association.

Final Fort Pancake Breakfast of the season

Wilhelm reﬂects on time as Sheriff Early years plagued by ‘unknowns’ JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

MEENON––Ron Wilhelm greeted me at the Sheriff’s Department. After yanking on the locked door, he sees me through the glass and chuckles. “I still don’t know how this place works,” Wilhelm said. “I never know when the doors will open.” Wilhelm was elected Sheriff in 2013 and took office the following year. After 27 years in law enforcement, he will be leaving the public sector for the private sector next year. He is proud that during his time in office the Sheriff’s office has had zero scandals. “When I took over,there was a hostile environment,” Wilhelm said. “We worked hard making sure people felt comfortable when they came to work.” He will exit office in December and has worked almost every position in the department. He explained the biggest challenge his successor will face is personnel within the department. “People just aren’t going into law enforcement the way they used to,” Wilhelm said. “It’s the marketplace everywhere. People are leaving jobs after a few years and in law enforcement, more and more people are leaving to go to the private sector.” Wilhelm has said that national media headlines are not helping with these issues. “A rising numbers of officers are getting shot on the job and that is detracting a number of qualified candidates that are contemplating going into it,” Wilhelm said. “Those things are driving people away from law enforcement.” CHANGES IN LAW ENFORCEMENT “It has changed dramatically over those 20 plus years,” Wilhelm said about technology in law enforcement. “It has gone light years ahead from where it was. We used to have big heavy bag phones and large portable radios.” He continued to explain that safety equipment has also improved. Protective vests are lighter and vehicles are safer than when he began his career. Wilhelm stressed that officers cannot simply rely upon technology and said

Plan Perfect the

SENTINEL PHOTO

Sheiriff Ron Wilhelm took office in 2014 and will exit in December. His ﬁrst goal with the department was to de-escalate the hostile environment that his predeccesor had left. His advice for his sucessor is to carefully handle personnel in the department so people feel comfortable and safe in the Sheriff’s office.

that common sense is still a large portion of the job. Another common sense tactic that Wilhelm believes took far too long to accomplish was getting the K-9 Tracker for the department. “There was so much red tape we had to go through,” Wilhelm said. “It was unbelievable what we had to do and how long it took to get Tracker here.” METHAMPHETAMINE Wilhelm explained that when he started with the department, meth was just entering the area in a big way. The county used to be number one or number two in meth labs. Then it began to ebb after the meth labs were destroyed. But recently, the meth has been flooding back into the county. “There is no silver bullet solution, but building a wall would be a good start.” Wilhelm said talking about President Trump’s proposal to build a wall running the entirety of the southern border. “Mexican cartels are flooding the area

with cheaper and higher quality meth right now.” Besides the resurgence of meth, another thing Wilhelm did not see coming (another unknown as he calls them) was the communication towers. “We had no idea what kind of mess we inherited with those things,” Wilhelm stated. “Steve (Sacharski) has done an outstanding job with the towers. We had to create a new position just so we’d have someone on top of that. That was an unknown nobody knew about.” The communication towers is a topic that will make most at the Government Center angry. The towers project goes back to 2008 and was only recently solved. “The long and the short of it is, the county has never had one project manager per say. This project has gone in a variety of different directions because of the changing of hands,” Wilhelm told the Sentinel last year. Wilhelm compared the problem to that of a disgruntled home remodeling contractor. The contractor gets the plans, makes a bid, begins the work, and then the owners change the plans time and time again. He did not blame his predecessor Dean Roland, for this mistake. Wilhelm believes that Roland had no idea this technology would become a problem. JAIL SITUATION Wilhelm made a point during our interview to explain the biggest need in the county is a new jail. About one third of Burnett County inmates are housed in Barron County because there is no room for them in Meenon. “I said it in my first public remarks as sheriff, Burnett County needs a new jail,” Wilhelm stated. “When I make my final public comments as sheriff, I will say it again. In the time I’ve held office nothing has been done and no money has been put aside for a new facility. Wilhelm explained that he will be taking some time off when he leaves office, but then will be entering the private sector workforce. “I’m going to stay away from the public sector,” Wilhelm concluded. “That is the best way for me to avoid those meetings. No more of those meetings.”

MADISON – On Friday, Aug. 10, DATCP issued a consumer alert after seeing an influx in reports from the public about fake IRS phone calls. By Aug. 15, the Consumer Protection Hotline has received at least four times as many calls about this scam as on Friday. The scammers are threatening arrest if the call recipient does not make an immediate payment for phony taxes. Many callers to the hotline are distressed by the aggressive nature of the scammers’ demands. Please hang up on these fraudulent calls and take no further action with the caller. There is no truth to their claims and you are not at risk of arrest! The IRS will never call you and threaten arrest for back taxes. If you or a loved one receives a similar call and needs guidance, call your local law enforcement’s non-emergency number or contact the Consumer Protection Hotline at 800-422-7128 or datcphotline@ wi.gov. For more information about these fraudulent operations, review DATCP’s imposter scams fact sheet at datcp.wi.gov/Pages/Publications/ImposterScams214. aspx.

WEBSTER––The Webster School board heard reports from the three district principals on Monday night and the message was clear – they are getting ready for the new school year to start. “Their school is full of students and our school is full of teachers,” said Webster Elementary School Principal Martha Anderson. This was after Middle School Principal Pamela Peterson explained that the building has been busy all week because of the abundance of sports teams already practicing at the school. Tiger Leap Day will be Aug. 30 for Webster students 4K through ninth grade. Superintendent Jim Erickson said it is a full day of school for those students and a good chance for the students to get organized. It’s also an opportunity for the incoming freshman class to get a better feel for the high school before the older students fill the hallways. “It’s a chance for teachers to explain, here’s your desk and here’s where your coat goes,” Erickson stated. “It also can take some of the stress out of things like learning your new locker combination.” The day will include a cookout at the fairgrounds for lunch. Bob Rombach of the We Are Network attended the meeting to explain his expansion into Webster for the upcoming sports season.

“I’m really excited to expand into Webster,” Rombach said. “It’s really about building the community.” Rombach will supply the equipment for the announcers. Rob Scheer and Matt Ward will be the announcers for the upcoming football season.

Administration committee begins budget preparations for 2019 JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

BURNETT COUNTY –– The Administration committee approved the 2019 budget proposals for a plethora of departments including the county clerk, treasurer and register of deeds. They also heard two presentations; one allows Northwest Passage to get a grant to expand their art gallery and the other was for building cabins for secluded and primitive camping. Kari Letch and Susan Tollander of the Forest and Parks Department gave a presentation for the Leadership through Effective and Efficient Designs (LEED’s) program. They proposed constructing two cabins with no electricity or running water that would be built and then delivered to the approved location in county forests for secluded camping. “They would be offering secluded camper cabins,” Letch said. “There would be no motorized access.” Letch said the cabins could be hiked to or reached by fat tire bikes or cross country skiing in the winter. There would be minimal site management and would operate through Airbnb’s online registration process. “We would encourage no trace camping at these sites,” Letch said. She add-

ed the sites would be in fenced County forests and located somewhere between 100 and 200 yards from the entrance. Right now they are looking into two sites, one in Jackson near Kiezer Lake where a fat-tire bike trail is being built. The other is in the Town of Roosevelt near the Timberland Ski area. They based their information on Bayfield County’s yurts. The county built two yurts, one in Bayfield and the other in Cable with a third already being planned. After the idea of a county campground failed to gain enough support to move forward earlier this year, some members of the committee were hesitant about getting into this type of business. Jeremy Gronski had a question about why the county is diving into these types businesses that have plenty of competition in the private sector. “I’m looking at the big picture. You’re looking to build two today, but what if in a hundred years there are a hundred of these things?” Gronski asked. “Since the campground failed, I think in the future we will be looking into public/private partnerships for these types of projects,” said County Administrator Nate Ehalt. Gerald Pardun said it was a “commendable project.”

This was just a presentation and not a proposal so no action was taken by the committee. NORTHWEST PASSAGE Mark Elliot is the Executive Director at Northwest Passage. He gave a presentation looking for support of a Community Development Investment Grant. The grant is from Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC). Northwest Passage is a mental health treatment program with facilities in Frederic and Webster. They started a photography program a few years ago and it has since taken off. They sent a group down to the Florida Keys to take wildlife photography with the help of a grant from the National Parks Service. Elliot said they recently got a large donation and that has got Northwest Passage thinking about expansion. They are now looking at expanding their gallery, which was built six or seven years ago. Northwest Passage has already been awarded the grant, they just need a municipality to use a “revenue pass through” between WEDC and Northwest Passage. “We’ve done this in the past with Health and Human Services grants,” Ehalt said. “The reason it’s being brought here is because it will require

some data entry and a small amount of staff time.” The motion carried with no opposition. VOTER TURNOUT County Clerk Wanda Hinrichs told the committee that the partisan primary held last week had the highest voter turnout in a partisan primary election since 2002. They held their canvas on Tuesday for the official results. “The big race was the Republican sheriff’s candidates that came down to a difference of only 27 votes,” Hinrichs said. “Candidates can’t ask for a recount until after the official count has been done. So there is still a possibility that someone could ask for a recount. But I have not heard anything yet.” Hinrichs added that only the candidate can request a recount after the official canvas results are filed. IN OTHER ITEMS: The budget proposals for Administration/Human Resources, County Clerk, County Treasurer, Register of Deeds, Information Technology, Burnett County Development Association (BCDA), and the County Board were all approved. Those departments also gave there monthly reports.

Passage Golf Scramble hits the course for the 17th year FREDERIC– Aug.13, Northwest Passage held its 17th annual Passage Golf Scramble at the Frederic Golf Course. It was a huge success with dozens of community members and organizations stepping up to support the organization devoted to healing children for over 40 years. Over $20,710 was raised to support both current and past residents on their road to recovery and as they demonstrate success both during treatment, through therapeutic programming opportunities, and after, through the Alumni Award Fund.

Breastfeeding Awareness Month KELLY WILTROUT, CERTIFIED LACTATION SPECIALIST BURNETT COUNTY FAMILY RESOURCE CENTER

There are many benefits of breastfeeding for you and your baby. Breast milk has a mix of vitamins, protein and fat - everything your baby needs to grow. It also contains antibodies that help your baby fight off viruses and bacteria resulting in fewer hospitalizations and trips to the doctor due to illness. For the mother, breastfeeding burns extra calories, so you can lose pregnancy weight faster. It helps releases the hormone oxytocin, which helps your uterus return to its pre-pregnancy size and may reduce uterine bleeding after birth. You also don’t have to buy and measure formula, sterilize nipples, or warm bottles, so it saves you time and money while giving you time to relax with your newborn. Breastfeeding can be risky if you have one or more of the following: • If you are HIV positive you can pass the HIV to your infant through breast milk. • If you have active, untreated tuberculosis. • If you’re receiving chemotherapy for cancer. • If you’re using an illegal drug, such as cocaine, marijuana or methamphetamines. • If you’re taking certain prescription medications, such as some drugs for migraine headaches, Parkinson’s disease, or arthritis. Talk with your doctor before starting to breastfeed if you’re taking prescription drugs of any kind. Breastfeeding your baby for as long as a mother and baby are able and willing is one of the best long-term investments you can make into the emotional, intellectual, and physical health of both mother and baby. However, making the decision to breastfeed is a personal matter; you and your baby are unique, and the decision is up to you. I wish you and your baby a pleasurable experience no matter what you choose! For more information on breastfeeding, you can contact your primary physician, the Burnett County Public Health/WIC Office and/or the Certified Lactation Specialist at the Burnett County Family Resource Center.

Make the last summer vacation taste good One of the best parts of summer is taking a vacation. My family loves Wisconsin so much it’s rare we ever go on a summer vacation elsewhere. It’s hard to beat hanging out at a Wisconsin lake. This year, however, we went to Colorado to see the mountains. We took ten days and basically went around and through the Rocky Mountains. It was a memorable trip in many ways. We camped, hiked, biked, and ate tons of great food. We also had a flat tire, camped in the rain and saw forest fires. Wild Chow We happened to be in Palisade, Colo. during a forest fire and the freeLisa Erickson way was closed. When you’re in the t i th mountains, there is only one way in and one way out. Palisade is where most of Colorado’s peaches are grown. We were forced off the road by the police and fire departments to wait until the fire was under control and they opened the freeway again. We were disappointed until we realized we were at a peach orchard. I’ve had fresh peaches before, but none as good as the ones that were fresh picked that day. It reminded me of vacationers who come to Wisconsin and are “wowed” by our sweet corn. There really is nothing better than fresh picked Wisconsin sweet corn—except maybe fresh picked Colorado peaches. Both are winners! We love to cook over a campfire, but because Colorado was under a burning ban we ate out more or used a camp stove. Some of our most memorable meals included peaches, BBQ ribs, and sautéed corn salad. We were told by friends to be sure to go to the Slow

Groovin BBQ in Marble, Colo. Marble is barely a town. It is tucked between the mountains and has a museum, a campground, and the BBQ restaurant. We went on a Thursday night, and the place was packed. We wondered where all the people came from. We ate amazing ribs, pulled pork, beef brisket, salmon, coleslaw, baked beans, and fried corn salad—yes we stuffed ourselves! I couldn’t stop eating the corn, it was so good. I wondered if they got it from Wisconsin. The combination of sweet, salty, tangy, hot is so good, this will be a salad you won’t soon forget. Spicy Sweet Fried Corn Salad 4-5 cups fresh corn cut off the cob, about 6 ears of corn 1 small onion, diced 2 Tbsp. butter 2 jalapeños, minced with pith and seeds removed 1/3 cup feta cheese, crumbled 1/2 cup cooked bacon, crumbled 1-2 firm peaches, diced into small pieces. 1/4 cup, olive oil Salt and pepper to taste In a large fry pan, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes until tender. Add corn and jalapeño and cook until a few of the corn kernels are lightly browned. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Add feta cheese, bacon and peach, oil and salt & pepper. Stir to combine and the oil is mixed in. Serve or refrigerate.

Pirates win exciting opener over Cumberland

Dragons ﬁre past Bears

BY STACY COY SENTINEL SPORTS

GRANTSBURG—Grantsburg Pirate football fans were treated to an exciting season opener on Friday as the start to the 2018 season got underway. The Pirates hosted the Cumberland Beavers in a non-conference matchup. Although this game was not the high-scoring, record-breaking contest from a year ago, the excitement kept fans on the edges of their seats until the final play of the game. When the dust cleared, the Pirates came away with a 35-28 win to start their season. “It was a good team win and a great way to start the season against an athletic and well-coached Cumberland team,” Pirates head coach Adam Hale said. “Having a few key players out allowed some of our less-experienced kids to step into starting roles.” Cumberland took the opening kick off and marched down the field as the Pirates struggled to find their footing on defense. The drive was cut short of the end zone when freshman Isaac Quimby caught a tipped ball for an interception to put his Pirate squad on offense. Unfortunately, they were unable to get any points off of the turnover and were forced to punt. The Pirates got on the board first with 43 seconds left in the first quarter when David MacKean picked off a Cumberland pass and took it 25 yards for a touchdown. The two-point conversion failed, but the Pirates took a 6-0 lead. The Beavers scored mid-way through the second quarter on a nine-yard run, and completed the two-point conversion to take over the lead 8-6. Grantsburg answered with a touchdown of their own on a seven-yard pass from Luke Anderson to Reed Arnold. Again the two-point conversion failed, but the Pirates re-took the lead 12-8.

enough. They scored a 48-yard touchdown run with just over three minutes left in the third quarter. The conversion failed to make it a 19-14 game. The fourth quarter was a nail biter for everyone, as both teams fought to push through the heat and humidity and finish the game. The Pirates added to their score early in the quarter on a 25-yard field goal by VanWatermuelen to go up 22-14. With 4:26 left on the clock, the Beavers scored on a pass play. The twopoint conversion was good to knot the score at 22. Grantsburg marched down the field, and just three plays later, Roufs scampered his way into the end zone for a

CLAYTON—The Siren Dragons scored 20 points in quarter two and 15 in quarter four to power past the Clayton Bears 47-20 on a hot and humid Friday night. “Our offense really did a nice job tonight, “ said Coach Ryan Karsten. “To make the playoffs this year, one may have to go 9-0 or 8-1, the teams are so good.” On the kickoff, Siren had deferred and Clayton received the kick. The Dragons forced the Bears to punt deep into Bear territory, starting their own offensive series on the Bear 41. Six plays later, Cordell Fischer added the touchdown on an 8 yard run. The PAT was blocked, but the Dragons had scored. Siren blocked Clayton’s next possession punt, but couldn’t capitalize on the the opportunity, getting the ball to the Bear 30, but losing it on downs. On an 11 play drive, the Bears scored on a 20 yard run with :30 left in the first quarter. The twopoint conversion was good and the Bears led 8-6. Siren fumbled the ball away on their next possession, giving Clayton the ball on the Siren 35. The Dragon defense was up for the task and held the Bears, taking the ball back on their own 23. Six plays later, Jordan Webster found an open Derek Highstrom, with Highstrom taking the pass and running 58 yards for the score. The two-point conversion

Bryce Roufs (25) led the Pirates in both offense and defense in their win over the Cumberland Beavers on Friday night.

Cumberland’s offensive drive was stopped when MacKean got his second pick of the night, putting the Pirates back on offense with 3:14 left to go in the half. They took advantage of the turnover and scored on a 19-yard TD pass from Anderson to Bryce Roufs on a fourth-down play. The PAT was good by Jared VanWatermuelen to put the Pirates up 19-8. The Beavers took over with one more chance to get some points on the board before the half, but the Pirates forced a fumble which they recovered to end the drive. At the break, the Pirates held a 19-8 lead. The Beavers outscored the Pirates 20-16 in the second half, but it was not

On a squib kickoff, Siren recovered on the Dragon 48. On the first play from scrimmage, Cordell Fischer ran 52 yards for the score. The two point conversion was good, Siren 40, Clayton 20.

Siren did a squib kick of their own, the ball touched a Clayton player, and the Dragons recovered on the Bear 46. Six plays later, Webster found Highstrom once again on a 25yard touchdown pass. The PAT was good and the Dragons held a 47-20 advantage which ended up the final score. On offense, Fischer rushed 24 times for 171 yards. Quarterback Webster was five for six for 83 yards and four touchdowns. Buck had two receptions for 87 yards and two scores with Highstrom also having two receptions, his for 82 yards and two scores. Gavyn Anton was a power on defense with five solo tackles, five assisted tackles and four tackles for losses. Fischer had two solo tackles and eight assists, two for losses. Said Coach Karsten, “I told the boys that personnel-wise, man-forman, it was an even game. Fortunately, we were better conditioned.” “Triston (Ortez) jump-started our second half and the squib kick recovery also helped us out.” “I’m really proud of our kids and our coaching staff. It was a great win, but we can’t celebrate too long. We’ve got Prairie Farm on Friday night.” “We won tonight because we wore them down in the second half and that’s what we’ll continue to do,” concluded the coach.

Granddaughter of local family named to USAG National Developmental Team Lily Pederson, granddaughter of Mariea Strait of Siren, was recently named to the USAG National Developmental Team. The USAG National Developmental Team is made up of young, talented female gymnasts from across the nation, aged 10-13 years old. Approximately 50 girls are named to this team each year.

Lily will attend her first developmental camp in October, with another trip to follow in November.

PIRATES: opening win comes down to the ﬁnal play CONTINUED FROM PAGE 13

Pirate touchdown with 3:19 to go. The snap was fumbled on the two-point conversion, and a Cumberland linebacker scooped it up and took it 80-plus yards for what he was hoping was a score. Unfortunately for him, and luckily for the Pirates, that is not a touchdown in Wisconsin high school football. The Pirates now held a 28-22 lead. Less than a minute later, the Beavers scored on a pass play to tie the score at 28. The Pirate defense stood strong and stopped the two-point conversion attempt as Ben Johnson knocked down a pass to keep the score at 28-28. Quimby got everyone fired up as he took the ensuing kick off for 45 yards to put his Pirates at the 50yard line to start their next offensive series. Five plays later, Roufs battled his way into the end zone for the score with 45 seconds left in the

game. The PAT was good to make it a 35-28 game. The Beavers moved down the field, and with six seconds on the clock their quarterback launched a pass from 40 yards out to the middle of the end zone. Pirate defenders MacKean and Anderson tipped the pass incomplete to secure the win. Grantsburg’s offense was led by Roufs who racked up 188 yards on 20 carries. Anderson was next with 63 yards, followed by Levi Miller with 20 and Quimby with 11. Anderson was 12 of 28 in passing with 134 yards and two TDs. Roufs was also the leading receiver with four catches for 74 yards. MacKean had four catches as well for 43 yards. “Bryce Roufs had an outstanding night on both sides of the ball and really stepped up in Leo Chenal’s absence giving us a number of big plays,” Coach Hale said. “David MacKean’s pick-six was a great mo-

mentum changer early on and Isaac Quimby’s kickoff return might have been the key to scoring on our final drive. Luke Anderson came up with some big runs at some key moments to keep drives alive.” On defense, it was Roufs again leading the way with four solo tackles and eight assists. Anderson was next with six solos and four assists, followed by Garrett Johnson with six solos and one assist. Miller had five solos and two assists, Ben Johnson had three solos and five assists, and Quimby rounds out the list with three solos and four assists. “We have a ton to work on and we need to get in better shape, but pulling out the win and fighting to the end was something for these kids to be proud of for week one,” Hale concluded. The Pirates will host Hayward on Friday night in another non-conference contest. Game time is 7 p.m.

Application forms are being sent to all homes with a notice to parents or guardians. To apply for free or reduced price meals, households must ¿ll out the application and return it to the school (unless noti¿ed at the start of the school year that children are eligible through direct certi¿cation). Additional copies are available at the of¿ce in each school. The information provided on the application will be used for the purpose of determining eligibility and may be veri¿ed at any time during the school year by agency or other program of¿cials. Applications may be submitted at any time during the year. To obtain free or reduced price meals for children in a household where one or more household members receive FoodShare, FDPIR, or Wisconsin Works (W-2) cash bene¿ts, list the FoodShare, FDPIR or W-2 case number, list the names of all school children, sign the application, and return it to the school of¿ce. For the school of¿cials to determine eligibility for free or reduced price meals of households not receiving FoodShare, FDPIR or W-2 cash bene¿ts, the household must provide the following information requested on the application: names of all household members, total number of household members, and the adult signing the application form must also list the last four digits of his or her Social Security Number or mark the box to the right of “Check if no SSN”. Also, the income received by each household member must be provided by amount and source (wages, welfare, child support, etc.). Under the provisions of the free and reduced price meal policy Karen Miller, Determining Of¿cial, Phone: 715-463-5499, Email: kmill@gk12.net, will review applications and determine eligibility. If a parent or guardian is dissatis¿ed with the ruling of the of¿cial, he/she may wish to discuss the decision with the determining of¿cial on an informal basis. If the parent/guardian wishes to make a formal appeal, he/she may make a request either orally or in writing to: Joni Burgin, 480 E. James Ave, Grantsburg, WI 54840 Phone: 715-463-5499 Email: jburg@gk12.net If a hearing is needed to appeal the decision, the policy contains an outline of the hearing procedure. If a household member becomes unemployed or if the household size changes, the family should contact the school. Such changes may make the household eligible for reduced price meals or free meals if the household income falls at or below the levels shown above, and they may reapply at that time. Children formally placed in foster care are also eligible for free meal bene¿ts. Foster children may be certi¿ed as eligible without a household application. Households with foster children and non-foster children may choose to include the foster child as a household member, as well as any personal income available to the foster child, on the same application that includes their non-foster children. The information provided by the household on the application is con¿dential. Public Law 103-448 limits the release of student free and reduced price school meal eligibility status to persons directly connected with the administration and enforcement of federal or state educational programs. Consent of the parent/guardian is needed for other purposes such as waiver of text book fees.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;We are the Churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

Pastor Bill Schroeder

A&H Lakeside Lutheran Church

My first call as an ordained pastor was to a mission-start in northeastern Wisconsin. On Sunday mornings, we would gather at a gymnasium where we would set up chairs and a sound system in preparation for Sunday morning worship. Takedown always went faster than setup because our youth wanted to shoot hoops with the pastor. The children baptized would not only receive the traditional baptismal candle, but they also received a basketball net as the baptism took place right under the hoop. I am not sure of the theology behind a basketball net, but it was a vivid reminder of the place he/she was baptized. I have many

good memories of worshipping in the gym, but one that sticks out to me is the enthusiasm in which the people gathered sang the song, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are the Churchâ&#x20AC;? by Jay Beech. They loved singing this song as it embodied who they were as children of God without a church structure. In this song, Jay Beech emphasizes that the church is not a building, but the church is Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s people living out their lives as followers of Jesus. When you are worshipping in a gymnasium, this song takes on a great amount of meaning. MPR recently had a program on the radio that dealt with church closings in Minnesota.

THE WOODLAND CHURCH

LAKESIDE COMMUNITY LUTHERAN CHURCH, ELCA

The reality is that many congregations in Minnesota and throughout the Midwest are aging and can no longer support maintaining a church building and paying a pastor. I fully realize the importance of a church building and what that building can mean to a community. However, the building is not the church! In the last verse of the song, we hear what the church truly is when Jay Beech writes, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The church, it is the people living out their lives, called enlightened, sanctified, for the work of Jesus Christ.â&#x20AC;? This church takes places wherever we go.
