Watt loving new position KAYLA CASEY SENTINEL STAFF

County eyes second K-9 unit JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

The Burnett County Sheriff’s Office is looking to expand their K-9 unit. Sheriff Tracy Finch said the department is exploring the option of bringing

on a second dog. The Sheriff’s Office currently has K-9 Tracker who has been with the department for a few years now. The St. Croix Tribal Police Department also has a K-9 unit Reese. According to Finch,

As the whirlwind of the new school year dies down after its first week, Joshua Watt took the time to speak with the Sentinel about his new position with the Grantsburg School District. Dr. Joni Burgin was the school district’s superintendent for 25 years before retiring after the 2018/19 school year. Watt, who was the high school’s principal, was hired to take over Burgin’s position in July earlier this year. Watt grew up in a small town in Michigan and he was very excited to continue living in a Watt small town when he started his career in Grantsburg. After graduating college, he moved to Grantsburg and took up a teaching position and coached football. The classes he began teaching were social studies and English. He never envisioned he would want to be a principal let alone a superintendent. That all changed when Watt got his first look into administration and programming work when online SEE WATT, PAGE 2

Tracker is about halfway through his career as a police dog and the department would like to have a dog working during the day. “Currently, Tracker Tracker

WATT: Watt’s main goal is to listen to concerns CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

schooling began in Grantsburg, Watt was a part of a small team working together to create and organize the online school. He was the member of the group to write the charter school grants that ultimately lead to the launch of iForward. He began to think administrative work is something that he would be interested in. He began to work on some administration tasks with former high school principal, Stan Marczak and decided it was certainly something he could see himself doing in the future. He was right on that prediction when he took over Marczak’s position as principal when Marczak retired. Watt had put in 17 years in the school district before applying to be promoted to the district’s superintendent when he heard of Burgin’s upcoming retirement. He has loved every minute of being a part of the Grantsburg community and the school district. “People really care here. It’s a parent involvement

that you can see in our community- that the community cares about its children,” Watt said of the community. He was very excited to hear that he would be able to continue serving the community and the district as the new superintendent. Before completely taking over the position, Watt went back to school doing online schooling with a college in Superior to earn his Educational Specialist Degree in administration, which is something you need to become a superintendent. He was very thankful that Superior had an online opportunity for this degree because in the timeframe he had and being a full-time father, husband and principal, it would not have been possible otherwise. His next goal for education is to obtain a doctorate degree in education. One of the biggest things that Watt enjoys about serving in the school district is making sure that kids are getting the best education and that they are enjoying every step of it. “Your involvement in school is bigger than just a

job. When people go through a school system, those are your memories for a lifetime, and my thing is always to make those memories worth having and keeping.” When asked what the main goal is for the district this year, he said his main goal is to talk to people and listen to their concerns to find out ways the district can grow and improve. The district is already really strong, but he said there is always ways to improve and things they can do better as a district. “Sometimes people think when you’re the boss, that everyone is there to serve you. I’m the other way. I’m here to serve people; the district, employees, community.” Watt reports that the first week of school went very well, and he is looking forward to having a great school year. He wants to give a big thanks to the bus drivers, custodians, groundcrews, teachers, principals, district office and staff for getting everything prepared and ready for the new school year to begin with a great kickoff.

works at night,” Finch told the public safety committee last week. “Drug traffickers know this, and they are trafficking during the day.” Finch continued to explain that the K-9 unit is not just for finding drugs. “If there is a missing child or a missing elderly person – tracker can help find them,” Finch said. The Burnett County Law Enforcement Citizens Auxiliary has already begun fundraising for a second dog. Those funds will cover most of the costs for the potential dog’s training. The initial training costs and getting another dog to the County would cost around $20,000. “The cost to the county should be fairly minimal,” Finch said. She added veterinary services have already been donated.

Tracker, born in 2015 in Slovakia, has been in Burnett County since December 2016. He is a purebred German Sheppard that went through weeks of training with sheriff’s deputy Mitch Olson. The departments goal is to have the same trainer pick out a dog and put them through the same training process “Tracker has done a really good job for us,” Finch concluded. “It will be really great to get a second dog. Especially with apprehension. If there are two suspects and Tracker bites one of them, the other suspect tends to give themselves up pretty quickly.”

Seasoned bus rider

oming from the city, I’m always thankful of how uneventful my morning commute is up here in God’s Country. Yes, during harvest I will get stuck behind a tractor. Or every once in a while, I will need to pass a driver going exhaustingly slower than the posted speed limit. Other than that, uneventful. In Milwaukee, I would often have to deal with a string of stoplights that could vary my drive by 1020 minutes. Or there would be a four-car wreck on the three-lane highway that could cause delays. One of the things that can slow me down as I make the trek from Siren to Grantsburg or to Webster is school buses. In my day we had bus stops. Now, it’s all driveways. The school bus I encounter stops three times in less than 100 feet. Let the kids walk across the street and down the block and make just one stop. Sentinel It makes sense to keep children safe, but I think kids are smart Editor enough to be able to cross a twoJonathan Richie lane highway to meet up with Billy and Sally so they can all get on the bus at one stop. The Richie brothers used to run across the street while we waited for the bus and one of us just became a doctor, while the other teaches math. I was a school bus veteran, taking the bus from second grade until junior year of high school because for my senior year I got my mom’s old minivan and drove that to school. Then everyone who took the bus became a loser.

Football is back! I have always found it enjoyable to waste a weekend just watching football. The thought used to be to enjoy as much football as possible on the weekends. I would have my junior league football game Saturday morning then I would go home and watch college football all day, wake up on Sunday and do it all over again but with the pros. The calendar would then turn to Monday and I would have to go back to seventh grade. Now, it’s pretty much the same except instead of seventh grade I have to return to our Monday staff meeting.

Kids say the darndest things

Remember Art Linkletter’s House Party back in the day and his segment ‘Kids say the darndest things’? Well, the Sentinel is going to be trying something similar to that this fall. We all know that people, in general, are becoming more stupid thanks to smartphones and the internet. The Sentinel is being proactive and will be reaching out to schools to stop the stupidity. Part of this is getting together with the local schools to have more access to the local paper in the schools but also is giving students a voice in their paper. (See page 6 for all of the details) The idea is that children should be writing so they can become better readers and what better way to boost their writing capabilities than having them write in the local newspaper. It’s not often I tip my hand to what we’re doing here because the number of copycats in this business is outrageous, but it’s important for us to make sure young people are reading.

A paid announcement Honest, I’m not selling anything… Well, I take that back, I’m selling the value of your time reading the opinion pages. Let me explain. One of the many things we like to read in newspapers is what is called “user generated content” by the industry. That’s a fancy name for items From the Publisher’s submitted by readers. Bowling Desk scores, classified ads, birth Tom Stangl announcements, bi i and d letters l obituaries to the editor. All of these things rank high on readership surveys year after year. We are making a change to our letters to the editor policies to help cut through the clutter that begins appearing in the weeks and months leading up to elections. I’m referring to the letters extolling the virtues of a candidate and urging you to cast your vote for the subject on the letter writer. We are gearing up for election season. In addition to getting to know the candidates seeking public office, we are rolling out a new policy concerning letters to the editor that endorse a candidate. Starting today, we are charging

for letters endorsing candidates. Why are we making this change? For years, candidates have encouraged supporters to write endorsement letters, knowing that letters to the editor traditionally have very high readership and are free. This is especially true in statewide or national races. In some years, we have received nearly identical letters from numerous readers inside and outside of readership area. It didn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that an organized letter writing campaign was underway. I can’t fault campaigns. They understand that the pages of the newspaper is where readers turn to learn about issues and candidates before making their decision. Survey after survey show this to be true, but spending by political campaigns on print advertising continues to decline. Between our coverage of candidates and their views on issues and letters to the editor, campaigns correctly figured they had this powerful medium sewed up. We chump newspapers were too stupid to know the difference. Well, I’m here to tell you that even the staunchest defenders of free expression have their limits, and we have reached ours. Will we still publish letters complaining about the actions of the school board or city council? Sure

Guarding Your Right To Know Since 1875

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

Exports are not the answer: Economic analysis shows dairy exports have little impact on milk prices BOBBI WILSON WISCONSIN FARMERS UNION GOVERNMENT RELATIONS ASSOCIATE

Growth in export markets has long been lauded as the measure of success in American agriculture. Last year U.S Secretary of Agriculture Sonny Perdue credited exports for being a “major driver of the rural economy, generating 20 percent of U.S. farm income and supporting more than a million U.S. jobs.” Those statistics conceal a hidden truth that most farmers know first-hand: exports don’t actually bring better prices. In Wilson dairy, exports have reached historic highs - now topping 15 percent of the total U.S milk supply - but that growth has failed to provide farmers a livable wage. In a recent webinar hosted by Wisconsin Farmers Union through the Dairy Together initiative, dairy economist Chuck Nicholson explained, “price impacts of export growth tend to be limited. One of the reasons for that is the milk supply response. If we have opportunities to sell more product, typically the industry can respond fairly readily.” In other words, opening new markets generates demand in the short term, but farmers quickly ramp

up supply right along with it. Any price increase is quickly neutralized. Nicholson’s analysis shows that for every one percent increase in dairy components exported, the All-Milk price increases by only 10 cents. Despite the limited impact on milk prices, the U.S Dairy Export Council aims for a goal of exporting 20 percent of the U.S milk supply, a 5 percent increase from 2018 levels. USDEC claims that export growth benefits everyone in the industry: farmers, consumers, and everyone involved in the complex dairy supply chain. But Nicholson’s analysis suggests that may not be the case. “The primary benefits will go to farms that are growing because they

are the ones that will be supplying that additional product that goes into export markets. Other benefits will go to supply chain partners like the processors and exporting companies that are also part of facilitating trade flows of dairy products outside the U.S.” Exports do contribute to farm income, but the profits are not distributed equally among dairy farmers or throughout the supply chain. Nicholson explains the income distribution issue this way: “The average milk price does not increase that much by increasing exports. So farms that are not growing are going to see milk revenues that look a lot like the revenues we would see if we weren’t exporting very much.

The place where there is a difference is farms that are growing will see a larger demand for their milk. The benefits are not higher prices, but bigger quantities.” That’s why many farmers feel pressured to expand their operations to stay afloat. But others cannot or do not want to manage a large dairy operation. For them, higher prices are the only way to stay in business. Since the price bottomed out in 2014, 7,339 U.S dairy farms have called it quits. If we want to save the 37,000 dairy farms that remain, as well as the rural communities they support, we need higher prices. If higher prices are the goal, then exports are not the answer. To bring real prosperity to dairy farmers and rural communities, we need a national system to balance milk supply with profitable demand. Visit www.dairytogether.com to learn more about the grassroots movement to bring fair prices to family farmers. Wilson serves as Government Relations Associate for Wisconsin Farmers Union, a grassroots organization that is committed to enhancing the quality of life for family farmers, rural communities, and all people through educational opportunities, cooperative endeavors, and civic engagement. In that role, she helps lead Dairy Together, an initiative to secure fair prices for family dairy farmers. Learn more at www.dairytogether.com.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Climate change should be a top priority

To the Editor, Hurricane Dorian and its aftermath has recently dominated the news. As our climate warms, scientists predict we can expect more powerful and frequent storms. In very simplistic terms, more heat means more energy and that produces greater frequency and storm strength. Our local climate is warming as well and we can expect and have already experienced more tornados and torrential rains with damaging floods. Dr. Victor Gensini, a meteorologist from the University of Northern Illinois researches tornado trends across the US. On average, Wisconsin gets 23 touch downs per year, which are about five more than we got in the 1970s. In 2018, Wisconsin recorded 32 touchdowns. Five hundred year floods are becoming more common, just ask officials from Bayfield and Ashland Counties. They have had two in the last decade with devastating effects on their infrastructure. Sadly, the known solution to this problem is not being addressed by our government. It is well known that climate change is caused by carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, the majority of which come from the burning of fossil fuels. We can slow and eventually reverse this warming by reducing carbon emissions. Some forward thinking members of Congress have introduced the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act. This is a bipartisan effort which has support from both conservatives and liberals. The revenue generated is sent back to each household to

shield most families from the economic impact of the carbon fee. It will create jobs and is good for the economy and revenue neutral. Unfortunately not all members of Congress are on board. Obviously “Big Oil” and coal are against this bill and are lobbying hard to suppress it. They stand to lose billions in revenue when alternative forms of energy are further developed and become main stream. They also stand to lose billions in corporate welfare subsidies. I encourage you to send your representatives in Congress a message that we can reduce damaging hurricanes, storms and tornados by supporting the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act. Tell them not to listen to “Big Oil”. Call, email or write Senator Ron Johnson 202-224-5323 and Senator Tammy Baldwin 202-224-5653. Both have websites and email addresses. As Congressman Duffy has resigned, let us elect someone that has an environmental conscience and will address climate change as a top priority. Michael Pesko Rice Lake, WI

Ojibwe tribal hunts start in September GRANTSBURG–– The public is reminded of the September Lake Superior Chippewa Ojibwe bands' tribal hunts of all species, including deer, swan and sandhill crane, on public-accessible lands in the ceded territory per terms of federal treaties. Wisconsin DNR officials say the public of Lake Superior Chippewa Ojibwe bands off-reservation treaty rights to hunt, fish and gather may be exercised on lands with public access within the ceded territory roughly the northern third. The treaties say tribal members may begin their hunting seasons of nearly all species the day after Labor Day - which is September 3. The tribal swan season opened September 1, along with ducks and geese. State-licensed hunts, Ojibwe regulations not identical; both regulated and approved Most of the Crex Meadows Wildlife area in Burnett County is open seasonally for migratory bird hunting. Areas that are open to state-licensed hunters also are typically open to Ojibwe tribal members exercising treaty-reserved harvesting rights. However, tribal season dates, bag limits and legal techniques often differ from those of state hunters. In addition, tribal members can legally harvest some species, such as Sandhill Cranes, and Tundra and Trumpeter swans, that currently are not legal for state-licensed

hunters in Wisconsin. Included in the Chippewa Ojibwe seasons are migratory game bird seasons, which provide opportunities for recreation and sustenance for tribal members. These seasons also help federal, state and tribal governments in their management of these game birds and permit harvests at levels compatible with the migratory game bird population status and habitat conditions. Federal, tribal leaders work together on hunting regulations Tribal leaders say this harvesting also is carefully regulated. Tribal off-reservation regulations proposed by the tribes must be approved each year by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, to ensure that migratory bird populations are not negatively impacted. The public also is reminded the Ojibwe hunts include sandhill cranes and all species of swans. Ojibwe members have been authorized to harvest a total of 10 trumpeter swans between September 3 and December 31. The Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission will post daily if the swan season remains open. For more information on tribal migratory bird hunting and all tribal hunting regulations, contact the Great Lakes Indian Fish and Wildlife Commission (715.682.6619) or visit their website at www.glifwc.org.

A former clerk for the town of Grantsburg has been charged with uttering a forgery, a class H felony, that could result in a $10,000 fine, 6 years in prison or both. Lynne M. Harmon, 37, Grantsburg, was town clerk for approximately five months before issues became Harmon clear. The town chair told authorities Harmon was scheduled to work 20 hours a week at the part time position, however she was only putting

in about eight hours. According to the criminal complaint, officers were called about a forgery complaint in August when town chair Jim Paden told authorities the town had problems with Harmon since she started. Harmon took over for former clerk Romey Nelson, who left the clerk’s office in December. Paden was looking over a number of checks when he found two that did not have his signature on them, but they did have initials of bank employees. One check was in the amount of $184.70 and the second was for $206, both were from April 2019 and had Harmon’s signature on the back. Authorities found a description for the second check was “shovel mileage clean elec-

tion” but could not find a description for the other check. Paden told officers neither of the checks had been approved by the board, which they need to be to be taken to the bank. The signatures on the back of the checks also did not match the approved payee signature. Harmon later told officers that she had signed the checks and when asked why she responded, “Cause we were hurting.” She continued to apologize for the mistake. She continued to explain to authorities she had used the money to pay for groceries. Harmon entered a plea of not guilty in August and is scheduled to be in court September 23 for a plea hearing.

DNR and partners increasing efforts to address CWD in Wisconsinâ€“urges to have deer tested MADISONâ€“â€“ Deer hunting seasons are right around the corner, with the archery and crossbow season beginning on Sept. 14. Officials from the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources, Wisconsin Conservation Congress and Wisconsin Natural Resources Board today announced new cooperative efforts on steps to control and deal with chronic wasting disease among white-tailed deer in Wisconsin. "We are unified in our interests in responding to and managing CWD," said Assistant Deputy DNR Secretary Todd Ambs. "We look forward to working in collaboration and partnership to slow the spread of CWD." The Wisconsin Conservation Congress recommends the DNR place more emphasis on educating the public on the disease, said WCC Chairman Larry Bonde. The WCC's CWD subcommittee recommends distribution of CWD materials to hunters and the public, and updates to the DNR website to make it easier to find information about the disease. The WCC is also asking the department to continue to make it easier for hunters to have deer tested as well as to dispose of deer carcass remains. "We feel the DNR and partners should keep expanding the kiosk program and keep working on decreasing the turnaround time on samples," Bonde said. Natural Resources Board members are generally supportive of the WCC recommendations, said NRB ViceChair Greg Kazmierski, adding that the board will be presenting its recommendations to the DNR on CWD management at the Sept. 25, 2019 meeting in Mishicot. The DNR is already beginning to move ahead with some of these recommendations, including efforts to expand the CWD testing kiosks and carcass disposal sites available to hunters, said Tami Ryan, acting director of the DNR Bureau of Wildlife Management, said. The department is planning to expand

the Adopt-a-Kiosk and Adopt-a-Dumpster program it launched in 2018 and is exploring both state and federal resources that might be used to increase these efforts even more. "The cooperation of hunters and private businesses is vital to the success of these programs and our overall sampling efforts. DNR staff thank all those who continue to assist with CWD surveillance and deer carcass waste disposal," Ryan said. "These programs provide an opportunity for conservation groups or individuals to assist with CWD surveillance and reduce the risk of disease spread through proper deer carcass waste disposal." Ryan said the department is also planning to increase educational efforts, with revised CWD materials to share with the public and updated, more accessible web pages. To make it easier for hunters to sample deer and dispose of their deer carcass waste, the department is adding CWD sampling stations and deer carcass disposal locations to the DNR's Hunt Wild Wisconsin mobile app. Disease sampling efforts are also going to increase in 2019, the second year of a statewide sweep to focus on disease detection in specific areas. This year, the department will increase efforts to get samples in the northern district. Statewide, Ryan said, the projected goal this year is to collect 21,000 samples in 2019. CWD surveillance will occur throughout 18 counties in northern Wisconsin. In addition, surveillance will continue in the Southern Farmland Zone and in select locations in CWD-affected counties in the central, northeast, and west-central part of the state. This includes counties that have had a wild deer CWD positive detection (Adams, Juneau, Portage, Eau Claire, Lincoln, Oneida and Marquette counties) as well as in the wild deer herd surrounding CWD positive captive deer facilities

(Marathon, Eau Claire, Oneida, Shawano, Waupaca, Marinette and Oconto counties). Hunter service testing, free of charge, will continue to be provided for adult deer harvested statewide. The department is also continuing to invest in advancing the science of CWD, plans on constructing a new CWD sample processing center in Poynette and is supporting research projects on composting deer carcass waste and prion persistence and infectivity. The Department of Natural Resources would like to remind hunters who harvest deer to have adult deer tested for chronic wasting disease.

check the DNR baiting and feeding webpage frequently for updates, as new baiting and feeding bans may be enacted in 2019 with new wild or captive CWD positive detections. None of the counties currently identified statewide will be removed from the baiting and feeding ban in 2019.

CWD SAMPLING LOCATIONS As in previous years, CWD sampling will be offered at various locations throughout the state. Options for CWD sampling include both in-person service as well as self-service options. Self-service kiosks are a convenient way for hunters to have their deer tested for CWD, and feedback shows that hunters appreciate this option. Kiosks provide a 24/7 drop-off option for hunters to help enhance sampling numbers, provide for ease of use and increase options in the world of electronic registration. Hunters are reminded that CWD surveillance efforts focus on testing adult deer, since older deer are more likely to test positive for the disease. For their convenience, the DNR recommends hunters contact staffed sampling stations in advance to verify hours of operation. For more information regarding where to take your deer for sampling, visit dnr.wi.gov and search keywords "CWD sampling" or contact local DNR wildlife management staff. BAITING & FEEDING There are currently baiting and feeding bans in counties throughout the state. Hunters and landowners should

PREVENT THE SPREAD OF CWD The DNR recommends a few simple practices to help prevent the spread of CWD. Ways to help include proper carcass transportation, handling and disposal as well as reporting sick deer, following baiting and feeding information and the cleaning and decontamination of equipment. Another way hunters can help is by following urine-based scent recommendations. SICK DEER REPORTS DNR staff are interested in reports of sick deer and deer with an unknown cause of death, with the exception of car-killed deer. To report a sick or dead deer, contact local wildlife staff or call the DNR's Customer Service hotline at 1-800-847-9367.

TEST RESULTS To view CWD results for a harvested deer, visit dnr.wi.gov, search keywords "CWD results." Hunters will need to enter a customer ID or CWD sample barcode number to view test results. The average turnaround time from when the deer is brought to a sampling station to when the results are available is typically two weeks. If test results come back positive for CWD, hunters should follow advice from the Centers for Disease Control, Wisconsin's Department of Health Services and the World Health Organization not to consume venison from that deer. For more information regarding CWD in Wisconsin, visit dnr.wi.gov and search keyword "CWD."

Condos coming to Grantsburg JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

GRANTSBURGâ€“â€“Blueberry Rentals gave a project update to the Grantsburg Village board at their meeting and also asked the board about an easement. The village is set to sell the land to Blueberry Rentals, but the deal is contingent on a few things like re-zoning the land to residential and to waive an old easement. Architect Craig Selander came to the meeting with a number of blue prints and ideas. The first thing on their list was to have the zoning of the property changed from commercial and industry to residential. He continued to explain they plan on having a set of condos built on Oak Street by next spring with construction beginning in October. Ted Gerber said their initial plan was to rent out the units for about $900 a month. But now with the number of requests they have got for the units they are planning on that monthly rate going up.

â€œThe requests along with development costs are going to drive that rate up,â€? Gerber told the board. Attorney Todd Anderson was also at the meeting with Blueberry Rentals. He was there to have the board rescind a flowage easement. Anderson explained to the board that in 1950 there was a flowage easement written that basically states if Memory Lake is dammed the village has the right to flood certain properties. He continued by explaining that no developer will look at the sight if this remains in the ordinances. He was also surpised the flowage easement has never before come up as an issue. Members of the board were not sure what the easement meant, and the village is set to contact their attorney to have a look at the wording of the document from 1950. IN OTHER ITEMS: Library Director Kristina Kelley-Johnson announced to the board that September is Library card sign-up month.

â€˜The dynamics of incarceration have changedâ€™ JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

MEENONâ€“â€“The jail has been a topic on many minds for the last year and the county will be enlisting the services of Kueny Architects and the architecture firm BWBR. The study is set to cost $34,500 and will take 90 days to be completed. The Burnett County Jail is consistently responsible for over 50 inmates. However, the jail was built in 1983 with only 26 beds. It is the entirety of the third floor of the Government Center in Meenon. County Administrator Nate Ehalt said part of the idea of having the study done, â€œis to develop a plan for the next 100 years.â€? Jail Administrator Mark Schmidt has been updating the public safety committee for over a year about housing inmates out of county. Barron, Bayfield and Polk Counties house a number of inmates and every time they have a court appearance.

Sheriff Tracy Finch said the jail is â€œoutdatedâ€? and â€œextremely outdated.â€? The study proposal from Kueny and BWBR outlined a number of inadequacies with the growing jail population. Ehalt explained the county has worked with Kueny before on a number of projects at the Government Center Some of the components the study will look into will be offender housing, intake, offender program and support functions (recreation, education and food service) as well as jail administration and sheriffâ€™s department offices. Other concerns brought up by the committee members was there is only one way to get to the jail and converting it to office space would take a lot of renovations to get the third floor ADA compliant. Schmidt continued to say, â€œThe dynamics of incarceration have changed completely over the years.â€? He explained a number of inmates suffer from mental illness and some of it comes

from people with extensive drug use. â€œSome of them have mental illness and some have developed a mental illness from the drugs they were on for a number of years,â€? Schmidt said. Finch added, â€œOur jail is basically a mental health facility for the county.â€? Former sheriff Ron Wilhelm told the same committee last year, â€œOur jail is nothing more than housing for people with mental illness.â€? Supervisor Gene Olson said the sheriffâ€™s office will spend around $300,000 transporting inmates this year. He also urged the committee to be proactive instead of reactive when it comes to the jail. Ehalt added that they are â€œnowhere near a groundbreaking dateâ€? and that this study is to start thinking about options for the jail over the next 100 years. The study will need to be approved along with the fee by the Administration committee later this month.

Siren man faces multitude of felony charges JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

Jeremy J. Paulson, 36, Siren, has two open cases in Burnett County both involving drugs and baily jumping. He led officers on a high-speed chase that reached 95 mph in Grantsburg last month. Paulson has been housed in Barron County Jail since early August. He was back in Burnett County for his preliminary hearing and bail/bond hearing. The cash bond was amended from $5,000 to $3,000. He is facing multiple felony charges in one case including attempting to flee or elude an officer and two counts of felony bail jumping, in another case he is facing felony counts of possession of narcotic drugs and possession of methamphetamine. According to the criminal complaint in March, a sheriffâ€™s deputy attempted a traffic stop in the town of Daniels on State Road 70. The deputy noted a blue car driving westbound on 70 and noticed a headlight on the vehicle was not working. The deputy followed the blue car, the driver was later identified as Paulson, and later turned on the emergency lights and after a short chase the car eventually pulled over. At this point the officer saw two others in the car and Siren Police was quickly on the scene as backup. The male in the car told officers his name was Mike Lapointe, but later admitted he was Edwin Akana and the female passenger was Jamie Erichson.

The Sheriffâ€™s K-9 unit was called to the scene and alerted authorities of the presence of narcotics in the vehicle. Erichson allegedly told officers that during the brief chase, Paulson attempted to hide drugs in the car under the driver seat and into the back seat of the car. Officers were also told Paulson was allegedly using drugs and that is why he fled. A search of the vehicle concluded with the officer locating multiple containers of drugs and drug paraphernalia. The deputy then found what was described as a â€œhomemade â€˜drug kitâ€™â€? containing .2 grams of suspected heroPaulson in, over 36 grams of suspected marijuana, 15 Diazepam pills (commonly used to treat anxiety, muscle spasms and seizures) along with multiple needles and a glass meth pipe. Later authorities learned Paulson allegedly threw things out of the car. Authorities revisited the scene on March 15. They found 24 hydrocodone pills (commonly used to treat severe pain) and gem bags similar to those Morrin found in the vehicle. Then in August, Paulson had another run-in with law enforcement. The criminal complaint states on August 6 a Grantsburg Police officer was on patrol when they saw a vehicle at the Sinclair gas station in Grantsburg. The officer noted a female, Kerissa G. Morrin, was pumping gas and a male was sitting in the driverâ€™s seat of the vehicle. The vehicle allegedly left the gas station at a high rate of speed heading north on S. Pine Street. Paulson then

turned onto W. St. George Avenue and continued at a high rate of speed. While going westbound and passing Peterson Street the car was still going much faster than the posted speed limit of 25 mph. Once the car reached the intersection of W. St. George Street and S. Russell Street it was travelling at around 55 mph. Paulson then turned onto S. Russell Street and crossed State Road 70. The officerâ€™s car reached 95 mph near the intersection of S. Russell Street and Skog Road and the officer believed Paulson was travelling well over 100 mph. Paulsonâ€™s vehicle soon crashed into a ditch on the south side of Skog Road. A sheriffâ€™s deputy arrived on the scene and located Paulson who told officers, â€œSorry guyâ€™s, dumb move,â€? as he exited the ditch. Morrin was located in the tall grass. Officers searched the vehicle and found various drug paraphernalia and a small glass bubble pipe with white crystal residue, which later tested positive for the presence of methamphetamine. There were also a number of items in the car related to a burglary complaint filed earlier that week. Those items included a chainsaw and a fish locater with a combined value of about $850. Paulson was then arrested and later charged with a felony bail jumping and a misdemeanor count of resisting an officer â€“ failure to stop vehicle. Morrin faces two misdemeanor receiving stolen property (<$2,500) charges along with possession of drug paraphernalia. Paulson faces six total felony charges along with a pair of misdemeanor receiving stolen property (<$2,500.) He is scheduled to be back in court in October for a status conference. Online court records indicate Morrin posted her cash bond of $250 and is also scheduled for court in October.

School Board receives results of the facility studies

he is not recommending that they go out and ask for a referendum of $14 million, but that there will be a task force of staff and community members to go through the list of priority one needs and better narrow it down to see what exactly they really want to have fixed. “Maybe come up with a 10-year plan on how to address a lot of these needs, because we haven’t even touched the educational adequacy side of things yet.” Now that the facility studies are complete, the next step is to put together that task force (a group of 20-50 members) to analyze the information from the study and prioritize the needs. Kraus-Anderson recommends also doing a survey with the community to receive their input on the needs and what they think should be a priority.

The Grantsburg School Board meeting Monday night began with a new staff welcome reception. There were refreshments and snacks provided to those that came. Each new staff member of the district, brick-and-mortar and iForward, each took their turns standing up and introducing themselves. They are all very excited to begin their adventure in Grantsburg and with iForward. After the board members introduced themselves to the new staff, Dave Dahlberg, the board president, welcomed them all to the district and wished them a long and successful career in Grantsburg. A big discussion at the meeting was with the team of Kraus Anderson. They brought their materials and a presentation to go over their findings of the facility study that was conducted during the 2018/19 school year. John Huenink, who is the Vice President at Kraus-Anderson Construction Company, took the lead on reporting their findings. “For us to sit here and hear new hires and some of your goals- that’s why you do it. You’re the heartbeat of the community, especially in Grantsburg,” Huenink said about having the facility study done at the district. During the facility study, the Kraus-Anderson team looked at each of the buildings’ maintenance, ADA (Americans with Disabilities Act) standards and building codes, the grounds,

See suicide behaviors in a new light NORTHWEST PASSAGE

Suicide and self-harm behaviors can be some of the scariest expressions of mental illness that youth and families experience. They can hold family systems hostage where everyone feels trapped in a cycle of misery and fear. Those who engage in suicidal behaviors and/or self-injury feel equally trapped and miserable. Often the overwhelming emotional load of this topic can prevent parents and professionals from effectively intervening in a sustainable way. Simply stated, the only resolution to the problem of suicide behaviors and self-harm behaviors is to stop engaging them. We must understand that to the person contemplating suicide or self-harm, these solutions are completely valid. To find the empathy required to help, we must acknowledge that suicide/self-harm might be a reasonable response to deep psychological pain, a reasonable effort to express that which cannot be expressed, or a reasonable punishment for an individual with tremendous self-loathing. When we accept another human’s unbearable pain, we are ready to begin searching for the actual problem. Perhaps the problem is ineffectively communicating emotional intensity or needs. Perhaps the problem is guilt and a desire to relieve a burden they have placed on others. Perhaps the problem is depressive symptoms or the torment of hallucinations, nightmares, or flashbacks. Suicide or self-harm may be the only way to alleviate the psychological pain. While the only solution is to stop those behaviors, there are sustainable solutions such as Dialectical Behavioral Skills group, Wellness Recovery Action Planning, and therapeutic lifestyle choices. These interventions adhere to a unifying theme that there is nothing inherently wrong about a person who presents with suicide or self-harm behaviors. Such a person is simply a human being with intense pain who also possesses the capacity to heal, change, and grow. Informed by this belief, the focus of the work is to help youth and families harness the inherent strengths of those involved to systematically work toward building mental health and more sustainable problem solving. “Healthy Minute” is brought to you by healthyburnett.org.

The 40th was a good one AN OUTDOORSMANâ€™S JOURNAL MARK WALTERS

Hello friends, Forty years ago, I graduated from Poynette High School. That same week my buddy Jeff Moll and I purchased two half barrels of beer, and held a very fun party at what was called The Four Seasons Resort which was located on Lake Wisconsin next to Whalenâ€™s Grade. Fast forward to this past weekend and the now, â€œThe Thirsty Mooseâ€? once upon a time, The Four Seasons, is where we are having our 40th class reunion. I had a master plan as the following day was the opener of Wisconsinâ€™s 7-day Teal Season and Wisconsinâ€™s Early Goose Season. My plan was to catch a little sleep in The Chevy Hotel and then paddle my canoe to paradise where I would spend two days making meat for the long winter. Saturday, August 31 High 68, low 47 It is amazing how the memories come right back when you see the kids you hung out with 50-years ago. Our party was a great experience and I urge anyone reading this to check out The Thirsty Moose, good people trying to make a cool business work. Sunday, September 1 High 75, low 53 Itâ€™s 2:30 a.m., itâ€™s dark, and I have to unload and load my canoe with hunting and camping equipment and a pup called Ruby. I did this and began paddling and I have to admit I was very excited about the next two days. Two hundred yards from the bay that I wanted to hunt I saw a mud boat approaching and by God if I didnâ€™t beat it, itâ€™s occupants would claim the bay. I then had 3-hours to sit and watch the stars, pet my pup, and listen to lots of ducks and geese. When legal shooting started at like 6:23 there were plenty of teal buzzing me in the wild rice and it was difficult to see them until they were very close. There

was next to no shooting but then a flock flew over and I managed to hit one and just like that, I had my first duck of the fall. An hour later a Canada goose flew over offering super bunny shots. I missed with my first two attempts and was getting close to disgusted with myself when I got lucky with my third shot. My trophy landed in muck and algae and it was very difficult for Ruby to swim to it, and crazy hard for her to swim back. Ruby accomplished her task and I was one happy camper. I put 17-hours in the canoe today and I have to tell you, I was dehydrated, kind of sore, and close to starved as Ritz and cheese spread is only so much fun. Tonight, instead of the Chevy Hotel, I chose the comfortable confines of a duck blind that looked like it had a lot of awesome memories made in it. I drank a can of Point beer and tried sleeping. That plan was an epic failure as there were 50 mosquitoes per square inch of air space and I had forgot bug repellant. The last time I checked the time it was 2:45, at 3:30 I heard a mud motor approaching and got in my canoe and claimed my hunting spot. I have spent about a million days ice fishing out here with my family back in the 70s. I camped and trapped rats and coon here. I caught my biggest brown trout on the creek that empties into it. I paddled up that stream, camped and shot a buck with my muzzleloader two years ago, and now I have the memory of my 40th class reunion. Today I had one chance at a teal and it went to heaven. I drove home dog tired, well aware that 48-hours later I would be hunting black bear. Live till ya die! Sunset.

Former Gov. Walker son eyeing run for Congress SCOTT BAUER ASSOCIATED PRESS

MADISON—Wisconsin’s former Republican Gov. Scott Walker said Friday that his 25-year-old son is considering running for an open congressional seat in a suburban Milwaukee district. Walker taped a television interview, tweeted and issued a statement saying that his son, Matt, is interested in the traditionally conservative seat that includes the city of Wauwatosa, where he was born and grew up. Matt Walker, a 2016 Marquette University graduate, has never run for public office. “He’s had a number of people reach out to him,” Scott Walker said in an interview on WISN-TV. “I think in particular what intrigues him is he feels frustrated that AOC (New York Rep. Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez) somehow nationally is reflective of his generation. He’s 25 and he feels like there needs to be a counter-voice to that.” The former governor has been a vocal critic of Ocasio-Cortez, a self-described democratic socialist. Since losing re-election as governor in November, Walker has continued to comment on politics on Twitter and in national media appearances, with Ocasio-Cortez as a frequent target, and has taken on jobs for conservative groups. He has ruled out running for office in 2020 or 2022 because he’s taking a job in 2021 as president of the Young America’s Foundation. For now, he is the only Walker talking about Matt’s potential run. Matt Walker hasn’t responded to messages sent Thursday and Friday asking about his interest in the seat. “When he asked me about it the other day, I gave him the advice you might not think of necessarily politically,” Scott Walker said. “I said, `One, you need to pray about it. If it’s God’s will to get in or not get in, you’ll figure that out first and foremost.”‘ If Matt Walker were to run for Congress, he would be entering politics at a young age, just like his father. Scott Walker first ran for the state Assembly in 1990 when he was 22. He lost that race, but won an Assembly seat in 1993, at age 25, and remained in elected office until last year, when he lost to Democrat Tony Evers as he sought a third term as governor. Scott Walker said he told his son that he would need to consult with his girlfriend and business partners before making a decision. Matt Walker is a partner and co-founder of Platform Digital, a company that says it helps “businesses leverage their brands through technology and strategy.” Matt Walker joins a long list of Republicans, including several prominent office holders, who are looking at running to replace retiring U.S. Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner, who has held the seat since 1978. Others considering it include: former U.S. Senate nominee Leah Vukmir; her Republican challenger Kevin Nicholson; Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald; state Sens. Dale Kooyenga and Chris Kapenga; state Rep. Adam Neylon; Waukesha County Executive Paul Farrow; Ben Voelkel, spokesman for Republican U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson; and Vince Trovato, another early Trump backer and his first state director in 2016. A Matt Walker candidacy could make for some interesting debate around the family dinner table. His younger brother, Walker’s other son Alex, worked on Vukmir’s Senate campaign last year. He is now running the re-election campaign for Republican U.S. Rep. Bryan Steil, who represents southeast Wisconsin in Congress. Wisconsin Democratic Party spokeswoman Courtney Beyer called Matt Walker unqualified and branded his potential candidacy as “a new level of petty for Scott Walker.” “His former friends and supporters also considering a run must be fuming,” Beyer said.

Soil health pasture walk–Luck, Sat., Sept. 21 The Northwest Wisconsin Graziers Network and University of Wisconsin-Madison Extension invite you to a unique permaculture and multi-enterprise pasture walk hosted by Anathoth Community Farm near Luck in Polk County on Saturday, September 21 from 10 a.m. to noon. The major emphasis of this pasture walk will be on soil health and watershed protection. Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS) cost-sharing programs will be discussed also. The Anathoth Community Farm is home to Mike Miles and Barb Kass, and is part of the Plowshares Land Trust, founded 33 years ago with commitments to nonviolence, community and sustainability. The farm consists of about 60 acres on gently rolling lighter soils with pastures and wooded areas. Like many

farms in the community, it was seriously impacted by the windstorm events of July 19 and we will discuss the process of rebuilding the landscape. We will also demonstrate soil health measurements on a variety of soil types and farm locations. Out-wintering beef cattle and bale grazing will be discussed along with answering any questions from pasture walk participants. The farm has established key-line swales to redistribute rainwater run-off. The swale borders are planted with various perennials both trees and shrubs. Forages are grown in the alleys. Silvopasturing includes both partial clearing for grazing and establishment of trees in existing pastures. The farm features rotational beef grazing, pastured poultry (both layers and broilers) and hogs, a large vegetable

garden, hoop house for vegetables, and solar power that supplies electricity to the grid. The farm uses a three-point-hitch, no-till seeder to inter-seed forage mixes and cover crops in tight areas. The farm is located at 740 Round Lake Road south of Hwy 48. From Luck, take Hwy. 48 east 8 miles, turn right or south on Cty E, drive about two miles, then turn right on Round Lake Road. Drive about two miles to the farm. From Cumberland, take Hwy 48 about 12 miles, then turn left or south on Cty E. Watch for the signs. For more information, contact Mike or Barb at 715-472-8721, Becky Schley, the Barron/Polk County UW-Extension Ag Agent, at 715-5376250, or Lynn Johnson 715-268-8778 at NW Graziers.

Can you spare two hours a week? Ruby’s Food Shelf currently is seeking a volunteer to help on Mondays (12-2 p.m.) and a volunteer to help on Wednesdays (12-2). We can also use volunteers who can sub on our other shifts, especially during the winter months when many of our volunteers like to travel. If you can help, please stop by Ruby's Second Hand Store for a volunteer application. Ruby’s Food Shelf is available to residents in Siren and Webster School Districts, Mondays and Fridays 10 a.m. – 2 p.m., and Wednesdays 10 a.m. – 4 p.m. Ruby’s Food Shelf continues to be thankful for the support of our volunteers and for food donated by Ruby’s Pantry, FourWinds Market, Wayne’s Food Plus, and many very generous individual donors.

at the end of summer with the last holiday before the kids go to school. Then the market always gets crazy again up until the deer hunting/holiday season. So be prepared if you are thinking of selling or buying! Call your local real estate agent so that you do not miss the rush.

A. 1 in 3 children in the US is overweight or obese,

putting kids at risk for type 2 diabetes, high blood Melinda Deye, NP pressure and heart disease at an early age. This can be prevented. BMC encourages your family to make healthy changes together: 1. Get active. Walk 15 minutes around the neighborhood, bike the Gandy Trail, or swim at the Grantsburg community pool. 2. Limit screen time. Keep the time spent on the computer, watching TV, or playing video games to less than 2 hours a day. 3. Eat healthy meals. Buy vegetables, fruits, and whole-grain foods from local farmers markets or grocery stores. Taking small steps as a family can help not only your child, but yourself, stay at a healthy weight.

mattress designed to properly support your body allows you to achieve deep sleep faster. You’ll feel more rested when you wake, be more productive during the day, and you’ll get more enjoyment from your recreational activities. Today’s “smart” foam mattresses are designed to cradle your body, regulate your body’s temperature, and relieve sensitive pressure points so you’ll stay asleep longer without being awoken by the typical joint pain that causes you to toss and turn. Adding an Adjustable Lifestyle base lets you customize your sleeping position which takes pressure off your lower back, helps open your airways, and often reduces or eliminates snoring. An Adjustable Lifestyle base will also accommodate any future mattress purchases. You’ll be making a one-time purchase that will improve your sleep for many years. Stop in when you are ready to get a better nights sleep.

KAYLA CASEY | SENTINEL

The high school’s gymnasium renovation was completed just in time for the volleyball invitational home tournament this past weekend. A few of the gym’s renovations included new lighting, ﬂooring, bleachers, basketball hoops and paint.

Gardner Standard, LLC announced the sale of McNally Industries, LLC to Susquehanna Private Capital, LLC (SPC). Based in Grantsburg, McNally manufactures precision systems for the defense and industrial markets. McNally has an established history supporting various U.S. Department of Defense customers with missions across land, air and sea.

Led by President Jim Segelstrom, McNally has grown rapidly, introducing new manufacturing equipment and broadening its design and reverse engineering capabilities. Under Gardner Standard’s ownership, McNally has nearly doubled in size, invested in the latest automated manufacturing technology and expanded its sales and engineering teams. “McNally provides a compelling value proposition to its customers and is well positioned for future success,” said Michael Healy, Managing Member of Gardner Standard. “During our ownership period Gardner Standard and McNally’s management team made significant capital investments in manufacturing equipment and a new 17,500 square foot assembly and test facility, which have enabled McNally to win new programs and deepen customer relationships. Going forward, we are excited to continue our involvement and work with SPC as a minority equity investor.” “Gardner Standard has been a terrific partner for McNally by supporting our growth plans with capital for new equipment purchases and providing strategic guidance,” said Segelstrom. “This support has allowed me, together with the rest of the McNally management team, to focus on growing the business and delivering significant value to our customers.” Terms of the transaction were not disclosed. ABOUT MCNALLY INDUSTRIES Founded in 1942 and headquartered in Grantsburg, McNally provides advanced design engineering, complex test and assembly, and precision machining and manufacturing for mission-critical applications, primarily supporting new and legacy platforms for the aerospace and defense and midstream oil and gas markets. McNally’s full-service offerings range from initial product design and manufacturing to final testing and after-market support, including reverse engineering and technical data package development.

Dragons continue strong start SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

MINONG – The run game certainly has setup the pass for the Siren football team. Through the first two games of the season, running back Cordell Fischer rushed for 425 yards and nine touchdowns, leading to a pair of wins. Then on Friday, the Dragons relied on the pass to provide a 28-26 comeback win over Northwood-Solon Springs to improve to 3-0 on the season. Jordan Webster went 23-for41 passing for 344 yards and three touchdowns, including a game-winning connection to Nick Webster in the fourth quarter. Nick Webster and Trevor Stanford accounted for 265 receiving yards and three touchdowns in the win. “Big brother to little brother was a great combo,” Siren coach Ryan Karsten said. “It looked a little like backyard plays.” That familiar family tandem got the Dragons on the board

Grantsburg wins home tournament SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

GRANTSBURG – Even scheduling now involves strategy for the Grantsburg volleyball team. “With WIAA (Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association) limiting the number of events teams can enter to 15, rather than limiting the number of matches teams play, we are only able to compete in three Saturday tournaments due to the required home and away conference schedule taking 12 of those 15 dates,” Grantsburg coach Deb Allaman-Johnson said. But with a Lakeland Conference foe agreeing to play in Saturday’s Grantsburg Invitational and count it as a conference event, the Pirates were able to add another tournament to the schedule. Therefore, they bolstered their schedule and earned a conference win while claiming first in their home tournament. Grantsburg won all four of its matches, including a best-of-five match against Frederic to take the top spot. “When Frederic comes to our

Fischer broke loose for an 80-yard touchdown run followed by a 2-point conversion pass from Jordan Webster to Stanford, leading to a 14-14 tie entering halftime. “Cordell’s run was a dive to the right and he went untouched for 80 yards,” Karsten said. In the third quarter, it was Siren’s point total that went untouched. As the Evergreens posted two more touchdowns after halftime, the Dragons were held scoreless and started the fourth quarter trailing 26-14. However, adept passing allowed them to pass the Evergreens. Siren pulled to within a score when Jordan Webster and Stanford connected again, this time on a 37-yard touchdown pass, followed by another 2-point conversion pass between the two.

SPOONER – While each runner for Grantsburg ran a personal-best time, each runner for Unity earned a top-20 finish. The difference led the Unity boys cross country team to a win in Thursday’s Spooner Invitational while the Pirates had to settle for runner-up despite nabbing first in the individual results. The Eagles finished with 32 points for the team win with Grantsburg (45) in second and Ashland (67) in third, though Chase Doornink paced the field with a time of 18 minutes, 18.5 seconds. Cullen Feist led Unity with a 3rd-place finish in 18:49.9 and his teammates were not far behind. Mason Brown (19:16.9) finished fifth while Caleb VosBenkowski (19:53.2) was eighth and Ethan Feist (20:18.7) was ninth to give the Eagles a quartet of top-10 finishers. Nick Paulsen was close to putting all five of Unity’s scored runners in the top 10, placing 12th in 20:46.8. Doornink had more than a 20-second cushion over runner-up Joseph Jensen (18:40.4) of Chetek-Weyerhauser and was joined in the top 10 by teammate Will Gerber, who was fourth in

Northwood-Solon Springs scoreless in the fourth and allowed for the game-winning points to come. Jordan Webster found Nick Webster for a 33-yard touchdown pass to give Siren a 28-26 lead with less than six minutes remaining in the game. Though the 2-point conversion failed, the Dragons’ defense made the lead stand. Siren forced the Evergreens to a three-and-out on their final drive and was able to drain the remaining time from the clock. Karsten said Siren’s offensive options are proving problematic for the opposition. “As the year goes on, teams are going to have a long week getting ready for our two styles of offense,” he said. “We can focus on the run or the pass, or a combination of both. “We have five or six guys I am very comfortable with at the wide receiver position.” But in particular, the Dragons benefitted from the comfort of their quarterback with his two primary receivers, one being his brother Nick. “Familiarity is always great between quarterback and wide receiver,” Karsten said. “When it is a brother-to-brother, it makes it even better.” Stanford finished with 11 catches for 200 yards while Nick Webster had three catches for 65 yards; Fischer added five catches for 30 yards and had 151 yards rushing on 21 carries. Fischer also had 16 tackles on defense and forced two fumbles; Gavyn Anton added 15 tackles and Jimmy Krentze had nine tackles. Mitchell Daniels added an interception. Karsten said this is the lone time he recalls an 8-player football team having a passer with at least 300 yards, a receiver with at least 200 yards and a rusher with at least 150 yards. The distribution on offense helped the Dragons overcome a three-touchdown performance from Evergreens’ quarterback Jeffrey Meling. Siren (3-0) hosts Mercer-Butternut this Friday.

TURTLE LAKE – The firsthalf deficit was bigger than the second-half comeback. Seeking an improvement to 2-1 on the season, the Grantsburg football team fell behind Turtle Lake 24-0 in the first half and despite getting back to within a score in the third quarter, the Pirates’ comeback fell short in a 32-20 loss on the road. “We drove the ball well all night but committed some stupid mistakes to end drives,” Grantsburg

coach Adam Hale said. Sterling McKinley led the Pirates with 208 yards passing and two touchdowns, though two of his three passes that were intercepted stopped potential scoring drives that may have changed the result. Though, neither of those touchdowns came in a first half dominated by the Lakers. Turtle Lake opened the scoring in the first quarter with a 15yard touchdown pass from Adam Waite to Lucas Torgerson; the duo also connected on the 2-point conversion pass to give the Lakers an

8-0 lead. The second-quarter effort gave the Lakers a three-score lead entering halftime. They went up 16-0 with a 15yard touchdown run and 2-point conversion run from Waite with less than seven minutes remaining in the half. Then in the final minute of the half, the Lakers capped another scoring drive with a 6-yard touchdown pass from Waite to Casey Kahl followed by a 2-point conversion run SEE PIRATES, PAGE 21

The Pirates then secured a shot for a 1st-place finish with a 25-12, 25-22 win over Turtle Lake. Olivia Ohnstad had 12 kills while Jensen, Duncan and Quimby had eight digs each. Duncan also had 10 assists in the win. Grantsburg completed its string of set wins in the final against Mercer, earning the victory 25-14 and 25-17. Johnson had nine kills; Duncan served four aces and Ohnstad had 14 digs. The tournament sweep gave the Pirates five wins in the week, after they swept Webster in three sets on Sept. 3. They sandwiched a 25-8 win in the second set with 25-13 wins in the other two for another Lakeland win. Johnson and Ohnstad had eight kills each; Ohnstad and Jensen had eight digs each while Duncan had 10 assists. “It was our night,” Allaman-Johnson said. “Webster had uncharacteristic unforced errors and I guarantee that will not happen again in future matchups.” The Pirates play at Siren on Thursday and have a week off before playing at St. Croix Falls on Sept. 19. Webster recovered from the loss to Grantsburg by earning a 3-2 win over Luck on Thursday. The Cardinals started with a 25-21 win in the first set and added a 25-23 win in the third set.

Edwin Janssen (21:54.5) was 24th overall; Brandon Petersen (30:09.2) was 65th; Tristan Maurer (33:563) was 67th and Jeff Janssen (36:42.2) was 69th.

from Dylan Nitchey. The Pirates had two prime opportunities to score points in the first half, but still entered halftime with a zero on the scoreboard. “We came up an inch short on fourth down of our first drive and then threw an interception in the red zone early in the second quarter,” Hale said. But miscues were avoided in a pair of scoring drives that put Grantsburg back in the game in the third quarter. The Pirates finally got on the board early in the second half with a 4-yard touchdown run from McKinley. The 2-point conversion attempt failed to keep the score at 24-6, though the Pirates got closer

before starting the fourth quarter. McKinley found Zach Miller for a 55-yard touchdown pass with less than three minutes remaining in the third. But again the 2-point conversion failed and another interception meant Grantsburg started the final quarter trailing 24-12. “Our second interception killed the little momentum we had going in the second half,” Hale said. We had to pass much of the second half to try and get it close as they chewed-up a lot of the clock with long drives.” Another one of those long Turtle Lake drives led to more points to start the fourth quarter. The Lakers went up 32-12 with a 3-yard touchdown run from Torgerson and another conversion run from Waite. However, the Pirates

were able to respond quickly to this score. Just over a minute later, McKinley connected with Reed Arnold on a 29-yard touchdown pass and then found Miller for a 2-point conversion pass, bringing the Pirates within 12 at 32-20. However, those were the final points scored in the game and the Lakers were able to drain the clock. Miller finished with five catches for 99 yards; Arnold had five catches for 72 yards and Isaac Quimby had 107 yards on 17 rushes for Grantsburg. Arnold also had a team-high 13 tackles; Levi Miller had 11 and Isaac Lee added 10. Dane Jensen and Quimby each had an interception. Grantsburg (1-2) plays at Unity this Friday.

WEBSTER – Only the final minutes of each half were somewhat kind to Elmwood-Plum City on Friday. The Webster football team kept the Raiders’ offense in-check for most of the game, limiting them to potential scores just before halftime and the conclusion of regulation. The rest of the game was owned by the Webster defense and rushing attack in a 26-6 win over Elmwood-Plum City. The Tigers’ rushers, led by 188 yards and three touchdowns from Nathan Stadler, outgained the entire Raiders’ offense to give Webster a 2-0 record on the season. “(Elmwood-Plum City) wanted to pound the football up the middle and then throw play-action or run some form of counter off of it,” Webster coach Andy Smith said. “Our defensive line did a nice job of playing on their side of the football.” Webster held the Raiders scoreless for most of the first half, leading to a two-touchdown lead. Stadler put the Tigers on the board with a 39-yard touchdown run with just over six minutes remaining in the first quarter. The 2-point attempt was unsuccessful and the Tigers took their 6-0 lead into the second quarter. While neither team was able to score for much of the second, Stadler broke through for a 10-yard touchdown run in the final minute of the half. He also added the 2-point conversion run to put the Tigers up 14-0. But the Raiders’ ensuing drive benefitted from decent starting position and a change in Webster’s defense. “We went into a cover-4 at the end of the first half and (Elmwood-Plum City) was able to run the fullback dive pretty effectively because of the light SEE TIGERS, PAGE 22

box,” Smith said. The combination allowed the Raiders to nix Webster’s shutout bid, scoring on a 2-yard touchdown run with less than 15 seconds remaining in the half. The Tigers did foil the 2-point conversion attempt and took a 14-6 into the break. All the remaining points belonged to Webster, which continued to stifle the Raiders’ offense. Austin Sigfrids scored on a 10-yard touchdown run with less than five minutes remaining in the third quarter and despite the failed 2-point conversion, the Tigers took a 20-6 lead into the fourth. Stadler then added his third touchdown of the game, this time on a 29-yard run with just over eight minutes remaining in the game. Harlo Olson added

Packers’ new-look defense carries offense in opening win KEITH JENKINS AP SPORTS WRITER

GREEN BAY—Aaron Rodgers presented Matt LaFleur with the game ball Thursday night after the Green Bay Packers’ 10-3 victory over the Chicago Bears. It was LaFleur’s first regular-season victory as an NFL head coach. “I’ve got such a high regard for him, not only as a football player but as a person,” LaFleur said Friday. “I can sit up here and talk all day about how much fun I enjoy working with him. But I think that really shows our relationship, how it is. I told him I need to be better for him, too. And not only

him, but for all our guys.” The Packers’ offense — LaFleur’s offense — has to be better. The unit had minus-12 yards in the first quarter before finally opening things up at the start of the second. LaFleur needed to use some post-snap misdirection/ deception on his first play call of the quarter to move the chains. Even still, the 10 points the Packers mustered tied for the fewest Green Bay has scored against the Bears since Rodgers became quarterback. LaFleur said the ability of the Chicago defense is no excuse for how poorly Green Bay executed offensively. “That defense is legit. There’s no doubt about it,” he said. “... Even if

you’re going against a good defense like that, your standards from an offensive perspective don’t change. I think we all have higher expectations and higher standards for our offense to operate.” WHAT’S WORKING Packers general manager Brian Gutekunst spent a lot of money over the offseason retooling and reshaping defensive coordinator Mike Pettine’s side of the ball, and it’s paying off. Gutekunst acquired safety Adrian Amos and linebackers Preston Smith and Za’Darius Smith in March through free agency. Za’Darius Smith had three tackles for loss on Thursday, Preston Smith had the game-sealing sack, and Amos, who signed a four-year contract with Green Bay after spending his first four seasons in Chicago, picked off former teammate Mitch Trubisky in the end zone late in the fourth quarter. “We have a lot of confidence,” linebacker Blake Martinez said about the defense. “I think for us it’s just being consistent. I think going from here, every single day we gotta keep bringing it at practice, walkthroughs, in the meeting room to make sure we don’t get complacent.” WHAT’S NOT WORKING LaFleur has stressed from day one the importance of establishing the run. Green Bay had just 47 yards on the ground in the win. Aaron Jones had 39 of those on 13 carries. “I thought in the second half there were some moments where it felt like we were starting to get the run game

going,” LaFleur said. “We just gotta be a little more consistent with it.” STOCK UP Punter JK Scott booted the ball nine times for 428 yards and pinned the Bears inside their own 15-yard line on three separate occasions. Two of Scott’s punts traveled 63 yards, including a clutch kick in the final two minutes that sailed from his own 16 to the Bears 13. STOCK DOWN Geronimo Allison was seen as the guy who could step up and be Rodgers’ No. 2 option behind fellow receiver Davante Adams. But Thursday night’s opener was not encouraging for Allison, who only played in 50 percent of the offensive snaps (32 of 64). He finished with zero catches and wasn’t targeted once. INJURED Linebacker Oren Burks (pec) and wide receiver Darrius Shepherd (hamstring) are both sidelined with injuries. Their respective statuses for Week 2 are to be determined. KEY NUMBER 5. The Packers play five of their next six games at home at Lambeau Field. NEXT STEPS Green Bay has 10 days to get ready for another division foe in Minnesota.

Milwaukee man convicted of killing shooting witness MILWAUKEE— A Milwaukee man has been convicted of killing a woman who witnessed a shooting and helped the victim. The Journal Sentinel reports 25-year-old Marquille Wimberly was found guilty by a jury Friday in the killing of Sadie Brazzoni in July 2018. Prosecutors say the 34-year-old Brazzoni saw Antoine Jackson struggling from a gunshot wound and took him to a hospital, and he survived. Prosecutors say nine days after the shooting the man who shot Jackson killed Brazzoni executionstyle near her home. It is not clear whether she identified Wimberly as the shooter, or even knew who shot Jackson. But prosecutors say Wimberly believed Brazzoni had identified him as a suspect to police. Sentencing is set for Oct. 24.

FALL/HUNTING RIDING SEASON From September 16 through November 30 the Burnett County Forest woods trails and County Forest roads are open for ATV/UTV use. What this means is that you can ride your registered ATV/UTV on any woods trail, snowmobile trail and ATV trail located on County Forest Lands as long as it is not bermed, gated, or signed as closed; and is at least eight feet wide. (A good rule of thumb is that if you can drive your truck down the trail, then you can take your ATV/UTV down it.) Reminder: No off-road motorcycles are allowed on our trails or on Burnett County Forest Lands at any time. No off-trail use is allowed and operation on private lands is illegal unless you have permission from the private landowner. It is very important to note that all of these trails are currently multi-use trails. This means that any street legal, licensed vehicle can use these trails during this time, (trucks for example). It’s also important to note that these trails are no longer being maintained during this time of year. For these reasons we call the State-Funded Summer Use ATV Trail System closed, even though you can still ride the majority of these same trails because they are located on County Forest Lands and township roads that currently allow for the use of ATV/UTVs during this time of year. Burnett County Forest Lands are designated in light green on the Summer-Use Trail Map, which can be found on our website at www.burnettcounty.com/ATVmap. Also note that ATV/UTV use is NOT allowed on the Gandy Dancer Trail at this time of year, except north of Hwy 77 into Minnesota. Many townships allow the use of the town roads. Please contact individual townships for their rules and regulations if you have any questions. Contact information can be found on our website at www.burnettcounty.com/townships. Remember, it is your responsibility to know where you are and whose property you are on. If you are unsure of where Burnett County Forest Land is located, please refer to a Burnett County Plat Book, as this is your best resource. If you have any questions, please contact the Burnett County Forest & Parks Department at (715) 349-2157. You may also sign up for e-mail or text noti¿cations of trail conditions on our website at www.burnettcounty.com/notifyme. Thank you, Burnett County Forest & Parks Staff WNAXLP

Relationships that matter

Pastor Dale Van Deusen Trade River Evangelical Free Church

You’ve met a lot of people in your life. Do you have any favorite people? Maybe a grandma or a neighbor or a teacher? They may not be famous, like an entertainer or politician. They weren’t known by the masses, and won’t make the history books. But they were important to you. You are glad they are or were part of your life. They have made a deep impact in your life. How come? Why are they one of your favorites? Probably because of how they treated you and others, right? Their character, actions, and words left an impression in your heart and mind. Even long after we are separated from

these people by distance or death, they still affect our thoughts and feelings. Have you been blessed by relationships that matter? A man named Timothy had three such mentors in his life- his grandmother Lois, his mother Eunice, and an older father-figure friend Paul. Paul writes to Timothy: “But as for you, continue in what you have learned and have become convinced of, because you know those from whom you learned it…” They not only taught Timothy how to live but their lives validated their teaching. What had they lived and taught so that their relationships with Timothy mattered?

“…from infancy you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” Relationships that matter. We need such people in our lives- grandparents, parents, and friends. And others- our grandkids, children, and others, need us to be such people in their lives too! People who teach Christian living by instruction and example.

For the month of September, artZ Gallery proudly presents four regional artists KYLE ENGMAN Kyle is a landscape and lifestyle photographer originally from Amery and is now based in La Crosse. His style encapsulates the definition of “moody” although that is not representative of Kyle’s personality. His work goes hand-in-hand with his love for travel and camping. Mountains, fog-covered pine forests, and rainy environments are the center point of his portfolio with a little bit of autumn colors and sunsets sprinkled in to give a little vibrancy to his collection of photos. Kyle’s style of work is directly influenced by the rise in lifestyle photography in 2015-2016 within the Pacific Northwest. Kyle was able to form a unique style due to a mix of Pacific Midwest influences as well as maintaining a Midwestern influence. Kyle uses a single camera body (Canon 5D Mark III), and for the majority of his photo career, has used wide-angle prime lenses exclusively. “Due to my fast-paced shooting style,” Kyle explains,” I am rarely seen behind a tripod, if ever, considering the only time I’d use one is when it’s so dark you wouldn’t be able to see me anyway.” Kyle’s main audience follows his work online in the form of daily posts through social media, which garners over 50,000 followers combined with all of his active platforms. Despite his dark and mysterious editing style, Kyle is

always trying to be a bright spot within the photography community. www.kylejengman.com. SUE CRANSTON Sue’s artmaking is nearly always guided by documenting details that reflect objects and people from her youth. Many of her paintings are grouped in themed series such as the “Know Your Roots” vegetable series, farm animals, items from her childhood such as trikes, roller skates, school chairs, and many portraits of children. Sue is particularly fond of painting portraits of Brownies and Girl Scouts! She is also a high school art teacher so often her ideas are centered around the theme of school and student life. “Currently,” she states, “I am expanding on a body of work that is all about the ‘American School Girl,’ This is a series of acrylic and mixed-media paintings, collages, relief prints, digitally created artwork, ‘lunch tray’ art and deconstructed/embellished vintage school furniture that represents childhood experiences from a young school kid’s perspective.” Her art is represented by The Stillwater Art Guild gallery in Stillwater, Minn., and The Cream of the Crop gallery which is featured at the annual Minnesota State Fair in the West End Market. www.suecranston.com.

NAN REINHARDT Nan’s experience in art composition has included drawing, pen and ink, painting, natural fibers/weaving, stained glass and mo-

saics. Since retiring from an occupational therapy career, she has studied, mostly on her own, how to create with copper, polymer clay, and silver clay, but her main emphasis is glass. Nan states, “I have had wonderful one-to-one instruction from several glass artists and continue to learn glass techniques from them and from self-study of glass fusing.” Nan’s clay items are made from polymer clay with a technique called “makame game.” They are fired at a low temperature and capped with resin to bring out the depth and color. Her glass items are hand-built and consist of jewelry, landscape pictures, 3D flowers, functional objects, (dishware, vases, etc.) using different techniques. She cuts the glass and combines/layers different glass to create each piece. Landscape pieces are stacked up to five layers of glass. She incorporates a variety of inclusions into her pieces including wire, glass frit (different size particles of glass), glass enamel paint, torch-melted pieces, etc. Some pieces are single-fired, and some need multiple firings. Finishing work is done with a glass grinder. Except for very small pieces, Nan grooves and wirewraps jewelry pieces to finish them. The options for using fused glass as an art medium are endless. Her work continues to be an ongoing exploration. nreinhardt@frontiernet.net. artZ Gallery is an artist-owned and operated gallery with changing monthly exhibits featuring member and guest artists. artZ Gallery is located at 208 Keller Ave., Amery, WI.

The Power Is in Our Hands Suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people, and greater awareness of suicide prevention resources is key to helping individuals cope with suicidal thoughts before it’s too late. Join us in the fight to encourage awareness, erase the stigma and embrace help.

Warning signs of suicide In June of 2018, the deaths by suicide of two high-profile celebrities garnered substantial attention. Within days of each other, fashion designer Kate Spade and television host and author Anthony Bourdain took their own lives. The deaths of Spade and Bourdain prompted many to inquire about suicide, its causes and if there are any signs that might help them identify if a loved one is having suicidal thoughts.

According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, no single thing causes suicide. The AFSP notes that suicide is most often a byproduct of the convergence of stressors and health issues that, when coupled, create a sense of hopelessness and despair. Depression and anxiety are two conditions most commonly associated with suicide. But the AFSP notes that most people who have been diagnosed

What We Do Is More Than Just Healthcare.

with these conditions and actively manage them go on to engage in life. Undiagnosed depression and anxiety, as well as undiagnosed or unaddressed substance abuse, increase a person’s risk for suicide. That is why it is so important for men, women and young people to learn to recognize warning signs for suicide and put themselves in position to promptly address their own issues or those of a loved one. SPEECH The AFSP notes that people who take their own lives may speak about doing so prior to committing suicide. People should seek help if they or a loved one talks about feeling hopeless, having no reason to live or being a burden to others. People who speak of feeling trapped or feeling unbearable pain also may be exhibiting warning signs of suicide. BEHAVIOR Behavior, especially behavior that can be linked to a painful event, loss or change, is another potential indicator that a person is having suicidal thoughts. Such behaviors include: • Increased use of alcohol or drugs • Looking for a way to end their lives, such as searching online for methods

• Withdrawing from activities • Isolating from family and friends • Sleeping too much or too little • Visiting or calling people to say goodbye • Giving away prized possessions • Aggression • Fatigue MOOD Mood also is a potential indicator that a person might be having suicidal thoughts. In addition to depression and anxiety, people who are considering taking their own lives may exhibit a loss of interest in things they once enjoyed. Irritability, humiliation, agitation/anger, and relief/sudden improvement are other moods the AFSP notes may be warning signs for suicide. The deaths of two highly regarded celebrities brought suicide to the forefront in 2018. Taking the time to understand suicide and its warning signs can help people prevent tragedies. More information is available at www.afsp.org. People who are in crisis or suspect a loved one may be in crisis are urged to call the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline at 1-800-273-TALK (8255) or contact the Crisis Text Line by texting TALK to 741741.
