‘The Closet’ is for every and any student JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

GRANTSBURG–There is a room at the Grantsburg High School called the closet. It was started to help kinds in need and help aid kids that may not have necessities. Some of the items they are looking

for are essentials like soap, shampoo, clothes and even non-perishable food items. The idea for the closet came to the school from a group of women at the Methodist Church. “They came to us with the idea,” said closet organizer Suzy Retzer. “We, at the high school, thought it was a great idea.”

Retzer told the Sentinel what the idea behind the closet is. “Students can go into the closet and pick out things they need and then leave with no one knowing they need these items,” Retzer said. “This community rallies around our students SEE CLOSET, PAGE 6

County looks to expand donation program JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

GOVERNMENT CENTER–– With deer season right around the corner the Land and Water Conservation department is looking to expand their deer donation program. The program is designed so that hunters can drop off deer

at a local processor and then the meat is donated to local food shelfs. “The local food shelves are very appreciative of these donations,” County Conservationist Dave Ferris told the Natural Resources committee members last week. “They like having that fresh ground venison on the shelves.”

MEENON––One man is dead following a one vehicle crash near the intersection of State Highway 70 and Clam Lake Drive in the Town of Meenon early Sunday morning, according to the Burnett County Sheriff's Office. Matthew Matrious, 30, was pronounced dead at the scene and two juveniles were transported to local hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries. Authorities arrived on the scene at 5:43 a.m. on September 15. "Initially, alcohol is believed to be a factor in the crash," a release from the sheriff's office said. The Sheriff's office believes the vehicle was stolen and may have been involved in a Barron County burglary. The investigation is ongoing with the sheriff’s office. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation cleared the scene after about two hours. The Burnett County Sheriff’s Office was assisted by the Wisconsin State Patrol, St. Croix Tribal Police Department, North Memorial Ambulance, Siren Fire Department, Burnett County Highway Department and the Burnett County Medical Examiner’s Office.

Deer season will be upon us soon. There is a program in through the county that will allow hunters to donate deer so the meat can be given to local food pantries.

Ferris explained last year the programs only processor was Lock & Load, located on E. River Road south of Grantsburg. He is trying to get Block & Cleaver in Siren to join the program, so it can expand and not just have a single processor. SEE DEER, PAGE 6

Camper cabin arrives at site JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

GOVERNMENT CENTER––Burnett County Forest and Parks Department has completed their camper cabin and it has successfully been delivered to it’s home in the Town of Roosevelt. Forest Administrator Jake Nichols gave a presentation on the completed camper cabin to the Natural Resources committee last week. He explained the project started with Forest and Parks staff members, Kari Letch, Tory Jeske and Susan Tollander, presenting the idea to the Administration committee last August as part of the Leadership through Effective and Efficient Designs, (LEEDS), program. They initially asked to have two camper cabins built at a cost of around $20,000. There is a similar program in Bayfield County, however they have built yurts instead of a one-room cabin. The committee approved one cabin and said they may build a second or a third in the future. Roosevelt’s camper cabin is only

accessible by foot, snowshoe, skis or fat tire bike. There is also no running water or electricity and there is a wood stove for heat in the winter. “The guests are also asked to follow the “leave no trace” camping principle and take all their trash with them along with anything else they have brought to the cabin,” Nichols explained. He continued to explain how Jeske with help from Letch and Tollander built the cabin inside the highway shop over the winter. It was built on skids to make it easier to move and relocate. The cabin is 10’ by 24’ with two full size beds and bunk beds twin sized, so it sleeps six comfortably, according to Nichols. Jeske also built a tabletop, counter top and a couple of benches for outside the cabin. “And we didn’t forget the outhouse, they put that together last,” Nichols said. The cabin was moved outside in May for it to be stained, once they had a couple sunshine days in a row it was stained. Then came the moving process.

The camper cabin has been on Airbnb for a number of weeks and already has reservations set in place for October and November.

“In July we started the moving process. It had to be delayed a while after all the rain we received this spring,” Nichols said. “With the help of the Highway Department equipment we were able to load it up and get it to Roosevelt.” It took some maneuvering but they did get it in position. Supervisor Gene Olson asked Nichols if the camper cabin will have any effect on area resorts or hotels. “It’s got a pit toilet, no running water and no electricity,” Nichols said. “There is a specific type of camper that will be staying out there.” The camper cabin went live on Airbnb in August and has already had a number of reservations. Initially the camper cabin was estimated to be built for about $20,000 including staff labor costs. It ended up costing around $17,000 with another $7,000 factored in for staff time. Nichols said the total costs comes in just under $24,500. He also gave the committee projected

revenue numbers. “We are charging $60 a night and we’ve included if the cabin is rented 25, 45 and 60 percent of the year,” Nichols said. The following totals include all extra fees, such as annual lodging license and the 3% Airbnb charge. They expect the revenue will be just under $5,000 if the cabin is filled 25% or 91 nights of the year, 45%, 164 nights, revenue will be just over $9,000 and if it is rented 60% of the year or 219 nights they will bring in over $12,000 in revenue. 20% of revenue will be going to Cumberland Area Ski Trails Association (CASTA) because they will be helping to manage the site. This includes making sure the cabin has firewood and keeping the trail open in the winter. All reservations are made online and the department expects to get their return on investment in a little over two years.

Politics - am I right?

verybody loves politics, right? I’m right, you’re wrong - those kinds of politics. That’s where we’re at as a society. Democrats have been running for president since Donald Trump was elected and he plans on being president for life. It’ll be that time a year again, any day now. Not really though. Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers can announce the special election to replace U.S. Representative Sean Duffy who will resign his seat on Sept. 23. After that, there will be a set of primaries and then the general election to fill the seat. I was raised in a family where we weren’t supposed to say we hated things. But I hate 2019 politics, especially the politics where Sentinel people say, “I don’t agree with you so we cannot be friends anymore.” Editor How foolish? Jonathan Richie “Y’know Ted, we’ve been friends since I sat next to you on the bus in third grade. It was my first day at school and you didn’t have any friends. We have been best friends through school, we disagreed on Reagan and the Clintons. But this President thing has gone too far.” Whether you love or hate Trump, he will not be president forever and eventually, you’ll need Ted. There’s a good chance your friends are more important than whoever is sitting in the oval office. I blabber and mumble about politics to make this point. The Sentinel will now be charging for election letters. Over the past few years, candidates have realized they can get free advertising in the letters to the editor section of local newspapers. They have hired writers to send endorsement letters to local papers. These letters are not original in thought and go against the idea of letters to the editor section. So, not anymore. The letters to the editor section is meant to be a public forum, not a free section to spout off and run roughshod over this local business, your hometown newspaper. Here is our new policy that will go into effect when the next election rolls around. “The Burnett County Sentinel accepts election letters endorsing or advocating for or against a ballot measure, party or candidate as paid advertising announcements. The fee is $25 minimum for up to 250 word and 10¢ each additional word. Like other letters to the editor, the writer’s name, address and phone number are required. Phone numbers are not published. The Sentinel has the right to reject letters which don’t meet publishing standards and will determine if the letter qualifies as a paid endorsement. Paid letters will be identified with a label and may or may not appear on the opinion/ letters page.” 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.

Not a kingpin, honest

t began for me a few weeks ago as a tickle in my throat, caused by sinus drainage. By the time I realized that my old friend ragweed had come to call, I was nursing a sore throat. After a full court press of allergy medicine, sinus rinsing, nasal spray and some vitamin C drops, I was no longer sounding like Barry White when I spoke. It’s time to fight seasonal allergies. In the spring, I am affected by maple buds, in the fall it’s ragweed. For a period of a few weeks during each season, I am miserable. My wife suffers as well, due to different allergens. We were visiting with a stranger who commented on how bad the From the Publisher’s ragweed is this fall. I haven’t made the time to see what the ragweed crop Desk looks like, beyond the pollen reports issued by the weather service, but Tom Stangl noticed this person didn’t seem to be ff i lik suffering like me. Their secret? Claritin D, the allergy medication that contains pseudoephedrine. Ah, pseudoephedrine, the wonder drug that opens up a stuffy nose. For the early years of my adult life, I depended on a wonderful drug, Drixoral, that did the trick for 12 hours. Life was good. In the 1990s, products with pseudoephedrine sold over the counter began to move behind the counter, then you had to sign a book and provide identification to buy them. It turns out pseudoephedrine was one of the raw materials needed to produce methamphetamine, known more by its shortened name: meth. So, when allergies hit, I was faced with a choice: either try one of the pseudoephedrine substitutes (they were awful) or bite the bullet and register with the pharmacist. At my core, I am a libertarian. If what you do

behind closed doors doesn’t hurt anyone, it’s no one’s business but yours. I understand that meth is bad. That’s why there are laws against its possession and sale. Pseudoephedrine is a legal substance, safe when used as directed — like in an allergy medicine. I get that pseudoephedrine can be used to make meth. A lot of innocent things can be subverted. I think the way society reacts to these challenges says a great deal about who we are as people. When products containing pseudoephedrine began flying off the shelves and stolen from store rooms, lawmakers decided to make people show identification and sign a book before purchasing the products. Great idea. I’m sure bootleggers signed a registry to buy yeast as well. The notion that we all need to be treated like criminals to save us from crime grates on me. I’m sure pharmacists are happy about having to approve every purchase of allergy medicine. It’s not like they have anything else to do like making sure people get the right drugs for their chronic conditions or serious illnesses. But it makes it look like we are being tough on meth, right? I know there’s nothing to be done but continue to be treated like a criminal to get my allergy medicine. I can pray for a killing frost or live in a bubble until the cold weather. I’ll continue to show my ID and try not to make a joke about cooking meth. I’m not Walter White, even if I am subjected to the same scrutiny. 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. Following his death in 1975, his wife, Marjorie Nelson and son, Gary Nelson operated it until Feb. 1, 1994, when it was purchased by Mainstream Publications. It was then purchased by Eugene Johnson on Dec. 1, 1998. The Burnett County Sentinel makes every effort to insure accuracy in all classified and display advertising, but will not be liable for errors beyond the cost of first insertion.

CAPITOL REPORT

Elections Commission spokesman disputes claim of ‘problematic’ vote tabulation practices Wisconsin Elections Commission spokesman Reid Mangey is strongly disputing the notion that the practice of auditing election ballots by running them through vote tabulation devices is problematic. WisPolitics.com recently reported that vote tabulation machines send unofficial results through the internet and those results are received by a server and a number of back-end systems that are connected to the internet through a firewall. Freelance journalist Kim Zetter was contacted by a group of 10 researchers who uncovered nearly three dozen elections systems across 10 states, including Wisconsin that were connected to the internet and published the group’s findings in the tech publication Motherboard. The researchers’ initial sweep found Elections Systems and Software voting machines in six counties were connected to the internet and dangerously vulnerable to hackers: Outagamie, Dodge, Milwaukee, St. Croix, Columbia and Waukesha counties. A later check then found Eau Claire County also had equipment connected to the internet. Zetter told WisPolitics.com in an interview that because the back-end

systems had been left online for up to a year at a time in some cases, the best form of insurance against hackers who may have penetrated the voting systems and deposited malware in that period of time would be a manual recount of ballots by elections officials. Zetter found in the course of her reporting, though that “some of those counties actually did do a manual examination of the paper ballots and others simply just ran those ballots right through the same software again.” Magney in an email strongly pushed back on the notion that this practice is problematic, telling WisPolitics.com that “all the voting equipment used in the recount was reprogrammed.” The email was received after WisPolitics. com published the original story Aug. 30. But Zetter said reprogramming the machines doesn’t do anything to solve the problem since the elections management systems used to do the reprogramming are connected to the firewall and thus vulnerable to hackers. Magney also clarified discrepancies between the account he gave to WisPolitics.com and the one Security Lead Tony Bridges gave to Zetter as to why it took WEC officials nearly a year to

WILD CHOW

What do you eat while you watch football? Sunday afternoon football games in front of the TV always look the same at our house. The guys gather around the TV and my daughter and I retreat to the kitchen. She and I love cooking and baking together and she frequently shows me a new approach to an old recipe. Most of the time we repeat our favorites. Our family loves buffalo wings, veggies with dip, and either potato skins or French fires—those are always winners, even if the Vikings are losing. We typically adhere to some sort of unspoken football food protocol. Basically, we make what we would order if we were at a restaurant or bar to watch the game. A family favorite are Brussels sprouts roasted and tossed in buffalo sauce—it’s divine! This time, though, my daughter wanted me to try a new recipe she has Wild Chow been making: sweet, tangy, and salty Brussels sprouts. Lisa Erickson Wow! Amazing and so easy, they paired nicely with the wings and potatoes. Happy football season! 1-2 lbs Brussels sprouts, sliced in half 1-2 Tbsp. oil 2 Tbsp. apricot jam 1 Tbsp. apple cider vinegar 1/2 cup lightly toasted almonds 1/2 cup spam or bacon, cooked crispy Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread out Brussels sprouts in one layer and lightly drizzle with 1 Tbsp. oil, tossing to coat. Bake until the top layers of the sprouts are charred, about 10 minutes. In a large bowl, mix jam, vinegar and remaining oil. Toss the cooked sprouts with the sauce. Pour sprouts into a serving dish. Top with toasted almonds and crispy spam. Serve immediately.

contact the counties in question after the research group reached to inform Bridges that systems were online. Before publishing her story, Zetter reached out to Bridges July 31, 2019. He told her that he had acted on the information he received from the researchers roughly 12 months before, “advising all of the counties to disconnect their systems when not in use for elections.” Zetter reported Bridges was surprised to learn that several counties still had systems online and contacted them again, at which point the group of researchers saw all but Milwaukee and Eau Claire counties drop off its monitoring system. Milwaukee County was in the midst of a special election at the time while Eau Claire County had not been identified in the initial sweep. But Magney told WisPolitics.com that when Bridges was initially alerted by the researchers about the vulnerability in the later summer of 2018, “he alerted someone on our staff about that” and “reached out to at least one county clerk” but said Bridges does not recall “which one he talked to.” The WEC spokesman later clarified in an email that members of the public contact WEC regularly with concerns about election security.

“However, it is not always clear whether their concerns are based on credible information, misinformation or misunderstandings,” he said. Still, Magney acknowledged that it was only after Zetter reached out in July 2019, shortly before the Aug. 8 story and made it clear to Bridges that there would be press coverage of the vulnerabilities that WEC officials acted.

DOT fees will rise in October JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

The Wisconsin Department of Transportation(DOT) will be raising a number of fees, including annual registration fees and title fees, starting October 1. The DOT announced the raises in August as the 2019-2021 biennial budget was going through the state legislature. Vehicles “The increased fees will be assessed for current registrations expiring September 30, 2019, or later and for new registrations with a starting operation date on October 1, 2019, or later,” according to the DOT website.

Vehicle title fees will go from $69.50 to $164.50. If the vehicle is being transferred after the death of a spouse or partner the title fee will increase from $62 to $157, the same increase will also apply to low-speed vehicles. For regular automobiles (no weight class) the registration fee is set to rise from $75 to $85. A light truck, 4,500-pound weight class, fees will increase from $75 to $100. The 6,000-pound weight class fees will rise from $84 annually to $100. Terry Walsh of the DOT told the Sentinel the money from the increase in fees will go back into the state’s transportation fund. There will also be a surcharge of $75 for electric or hybrid vehicle.

Next time you go to pay to register your car the fee will be increased. The DOT says the extra funds will go into the state’s transportation fund.

Village interested in former Fourwinds site JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

SIREN––The Siren Village Board wants to know what will be done with the former Fourwinds Market site. The store has been closed since 2017 when the store moved to their new location on Airport Road near the

roundabout. “That’s prime real estate in the village,” village president Dave Alden said. “We need to find out what they’re doing.” Fourwinds Market is located at 7389 Airport Rd just off of State Road 35/70. The former location is 24133 State Road 35/70.

The plans were for the St. Croix Tribe of Chippewa to turn the site into a Boys and Girls Club, but those plans have apparently been put on hold. Chief of Police Chris Sybers told the board to send a letter to the Tribal Council to find out what their plans are for the site.

Additions to court room approved, spending for outside programs questioned JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

The Administration committee approved a budget proposal for 2020 on Monday morning. A number of department budgets were approved and there was lengthy discussion on a number of line items There is still time for changes to the budget before the public hearing held in November. Major improvements for the court room were approved including new video conference, sound system and remodeling the front office. The front office and customer service window updates are to help with accessibility for the public and security for the county employees. The video conference and sound system updates are scheduled to cost $56,500 and the window remodel will cost around $18,500.

There was discussion on contributions to a number of programs and if the county will continue to help certain organizations financially. County Administrator Nate Ehalt told the Administration committee they will be cutting all funding to Restorative Justice and will be cutting back on funding for the local senior centers. Funding in 2019 to the four senior centers was $14,250 and for 2020 that will be cut down to $10,000. Ehalt said he has spoken with all the senior centers and held a meeting earlier in the summer to explain the changes. The 2020 budget also cuts all funding to the pair of county fairs the County Board of Supervisors helps annually. The Central Burnett County Fair held in Webster and the Burnett County Agricultural Fair both received $3,000 in 2019 and are

Supervisor Jeremy Gronski told the board he has had issues getting a report on the Ag Fair from it’s organizers. “It’s been difficult getting any type of report from them on what they use the money for and if they need it still,” Gronski said. Chell said he would compile reports for the Ag Fair and have them submitted for next month. The Administration committee will revisit funding the county fairs next month after they reach out to both fair boards to get reports from them.

CLEAR LAKE––Two Clayton teenagers were killed in a car accident Monday afternoon. Authorities responded to a call about an accident on Highway 63 after calls started coming in about a sedan versus semitruck crash near the intersection of 60th Avenue in the Town of Clear Lake. Michael Magnuson, 16, and Grace Schradle, 16, both of rural Clayton were pronounced dead at the scene. Initial reports say Magnuson was driving and Schradle was in the front passenger seat. According to the Polk County Sheriff’s Office, both people in the sedan suffered fatal injuries following the accident Monday Sept. 16 just before 2 p.m. When officers arrived on the scene they noted the sedan was in a ditch and resting upside down. The sheriff’s office released a statement explaining they believe the semi was pulling a trailer while traveling north on Highway 63 approaching 60th Ave, while the sedan was traveling east on 60th Avenue. “Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and community as we all continue to get through this tragic event.” Witnesses told authorities the sedan allegedly entered the highway without stopping at a stop sign. The semi-truck was about halfway through the intersection when the sedan hit the side of the trailer. Assisting the Polk County Sheriff’s Office with the crash was Clear Lake Police Department, Clear Lake fire and first responders, Clayton Fire and first responders, Amery area ambulance, Wisconsin State Patrol, and the Polk County Medical Examiner’s Office. The crash remains under investigation by the Wisconsin State Patrol and the Polk County Sheriff’s Office.

As winter rolls around they are looking for warm weather clothing They are looking for donations of non-descript clothing, this is so gently used clothing cannot be traced back to another student. “Sweatshirts, shirts with no letters or messages on them are ideal,” Retzer said.

She added they will only accept unopened packages for food donations. Justin Daigle of KJ’s Fresh Market has donated food items along with some gift cards. Retzer has reached out to other local businesses for donations. For any questions, please contact the Grantsburg High School. If you would like to donate items to the closet, they can be dropped off at the High School. There will also be a donation box at the Sentinel office, 114 W.

Ideally the county would like a processor in the northern or eastern part of the county, but there are no butchers in that section of the county. The program is run with the help of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (WDNR.) It began in 2000

and since then hunters have donated over 90,000 deer which was processed into over 3.7 million pounds of ground venison. “Any hunter that wants to donate a deer, just brings it to the processor and fill out a form,” Ferris explained. “Then (the county) pays for the deer to be processed.”

Webster eyes new technology JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

WEBSTERâ€“â€“The Webster school board saw a presentation on a new piece of technology that may take the place of smartboards across the district. Itâ€™s called Clevertouch and the Webster High School library got to use it for a while. Websterâ€™s Technology Coordinator LeAnn Christensen gave a demonstration on the Clevertouch technology. It looks just like a TV when it was sitting in the library the last few days but it is much more than that. â€œOver the last few years we have been getting away from having a PC in front of every student,â€? Christensen said. â€œThis will help us with that. Itâ€™s not just a smart TV. They can be turned flat and then used like a tablet. You can also sync them up with your phone.â€? She continued to show the Clevertouch screen has a whiteboard capability with multi-touch function so two students can be using the whiteboard at the same time. It can also be used to draw shapes for math problems. Kindergarten teacher Jessica Hedrick and 3rd Grade Teacher Lisa Richison were also brought in to talk about their experience with the Clevertouch screen. Richison said that programs are already in place for educators using the Clevertouch so Webster teachers wonâ€™t need to â€œreinvent the wheel.â€? Hedrick told the board that some of their smartboard lesson plans can be merged with the new system.

Christensen added the schoolâ€™s smartboards are getting old, some have been in the school for 12 years and they are becoming less reliable with age. Richison added her smartboard is possibly the oldest in the district and is near the front of the line for getting a replacement. Terry Larsen and other board members wanted to know about the cost for the Clevertouch. â€œIt will be less expensive than if we buy a smartboard and a projector,â€? Christensen said. â€œWith the smartboard, you need the actual smart board which costs $1,800 and then the projector will cost another $600-$800.â€? She added just for one Clevertouch will cost around $2,200 and thatâ€™s not the wholesale price if they buy in bulk. Which they might do because Christensen said the smartboards across the district are getting

old and they may need to purchase 50-55 Clevertouch systems soon. Larsen then asked about leasing the Clevertouchâ€™s instead of buying them. â€œLook into that please, because we donâ€™t want to buy a bunch of these and then have the next great piece of teaching technology come out three years later,â€? school board president Mark Elliot said. The discussion turned into maybe just buying ten at first and then phasing them in overtime instead of buying all potential 55 units all at once.

Burglary case slated for three-day trial JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

GOVERNMENT CENTER––A Minnesota man will have his day in court in January. Jonathon Laboda, 33, Vadnais Heights, Minn., was charged with two felony counts of burglary of a building or dwelling, one felony count of attempting to flee or elude an officer and two Laboda misdemeanor counts of criminal damage to property in two separate cases. Laboda has been in custody of Burnett County and is currently being housed in Barron County Jail. He was back in the Burnett County courthouse last week for a scheduled plea hearing in both cases. The trial is set to start 13 months after the crimes were committed in December 2018. The jury trial was initially scheduled for two days, however Laboda’s attorney Kevin Schmidt argued they may need three days to account for all the evidence.

“In one case there is a long video involved and in the other there are multiple witnesses,” Schmidt told Judge Melissia Mogen on Friday September 13. Laboda is charged with burglarizing a bar in Webb Lake and a restaurant in Siren in two separate cases. According to the criminal complaint, on Dec. 11 law enforcement was dispatched to Gilder’s Bar on Long Lake Road in Webb Lake. The owner of the bar told officers when customers arrived that morning they noted it looked like the bar had been broken into. Witnesses of the scene observed empty beer bottles and other bottles on the floor behind the bar. A number of cabinets were left open and the owner alleged the cash register was taken off the bar and was found in pieces on the floor. The owner continued to tell authorities that the suspect allegedly took power tools from the bar in an attempt to break into the bar’s gambling machine, jukebox, pool table and even arcade games. All of those machines were allegedly broken by the attempted break in besides an arcade racing game. Officers then saw surveillance video. They allegedly saw the suspect just

before 5 a.m. drive past the bar then turned around and drove onto the driveway on the side of the bar. The complaint continues to explain the suspect allegedly took the surveillance camera down inside the bar. The exterior camera showed the suspect backing their car up to the basement door pulling a wagon. Video then allegedly shows the suspect making a number of trips from the bar to the car. The suspect vehicle in the video is a “light-colored Dodge Journey” but the license plate was not readable. A similar car was initiated in a chase later that month. In another case, Laboda allegedly burglarized Tesora’s Restaurant in Siren. According to the criminal complaint, on Dec. 22 around 8 a.m. the sheriff’s department was advised that there was a man wearing a ski mask inside Tesora’s Restaurant in Siren. The man was allegedly breaking into the cash machine located inside the restaurant. The suspect drove off in what was described as a “gold colored minivan or SUV” and was headed north on Highway 35. Sheriff’s deputies then responded to the area. When they located the suspected

vehicle, they activated their emergency lights and “the subject accelerated rapidly.” The complaint goes on to say the suspected vehicle went through the ditch on Highway 35 and then sideways into the southbound lane of Highway 35. The department received another call from a resident on County Road D who stated that the suspected vehicle had pulled into their driveway. Deputies followed fresh tracks that led them to an empty gold colored SUV. The K-9 officer was then called to the scene. The K9 followed the scent east. Laboda was later found in a garage on Midtown Road and taken into custody. At that point Laboda told deputies he had swallowed a bag of heroin. Laboda allegedly had $2,930 in his pocket when he was arrested. Officers spoke with Tesora’s owner, who indicated a safe containing $2,000 had been stolen and that approximately $900 was missing from the registers. Laboda’s three-day jury trial is set to begin January 14. There will be a status conference in November to find out if Schmidt and Laboda will have both cases on trial together or separate. A pre-trial conference is also scheduled for December.

The skies clear for BCTC’s Poker Paddle on the Yellows On a clear, brisk fall Saturday, 16 enthusiasts launched their kayaks and canoes for a morning Poker Paddle on the Yellow River and Yellow Lake. This was the first event of its kind sponsored by the Burnett County Tourism Coalition, and by all counts, definitely not the last. Feedback from participants was overwhelmingly positive. Karen Howe’s comment was typical: “Amazing program. I’m glad BCTC decided to hold this event -- wish there were more people here. The weather is great...I hope [participation] triples next year!” BCTC Vice President and event organizer Kim Wheeler was pleased with the turnout. “In addition to being a fundraiser, we wanted to show off the great opportunities we have for canoeing and kayaking in Burnett County.” The route took paddlers on a wild stretch of the Yellow River between St. Rd 35 and Yellow Lake, then across Yellow Lake ending at Forts Folle Avoine. Each person assembled a poker hand starting at the launch site, then drew a card at each of five landings staffed by BCTC volunteers and Friends of the Gandy. Players could enhance their hands by purchasing additional cards at the launch and finish points. Lunch, included in the registration fee, was served at the Fort Folle Avoine landing where everyone’s hands were tallied, and prizes were awarded. The $50 cash 1st prize went to Lynn Beauclair who held two pair: aces and queens. Don Anderson won

Strong communities make for strong recovery. Research shows that peer support services can provide a valuable approach to guide individuals as they work towards recovery. Community members must band together to show that recovery is possible for everyone. We need to keep making positive strides by helping them access treatment, recovery support, and by welcoming them back to the community so we can build healthier, more resilient communities and reduce public safety costs. Communities can bolster the possibility of recovery in a meaningful way. Help those affected reach their full potential by promoting recovery! What can you do? • Organize a walk or run in your neighborhood to raise awareness. • Connect with local schools to provide messages of support and resources. • Share locations of safe medication disposal sites in your community. • Reach out to faith-based organizations to encourage them to support recovery efforts through donations, member trainings, and community counseling initiatives. When mental and substance use disorders go untreated, they become more complex and more difficult to treat. Intervening early before conditions progress is among the best and most cost-effective ways to improve overall health. Remember recovery isn’t a race but a lifelong journey. It’s important to give thanks each day because sometimes we fail to express gratitude for our successes and accomplishments. Even your worst day deserves acknowledgement because you made it through and are better equipped to face tomorrow.

Bear Camp 2019 AN OUTDOORSMANâ€™S JOURNAL MARK WALTERS

Hello friends, Forty days after Doug Cibulka of Portage and I started running bear baits the season opened. For nine days Doug stayed at my northern Juneau County home as we completed the final tasks to prepare for the hunt, eat good meals and enjoy some campfire time. Wednesday, Sept. 4 High 77, low 51 Today is opening day of Wisconsinâ€™s black bear season. Doug and I have five baits that we are running, of which one is pretty active with maybe one daylight hit a week, but it is getting hit every night after dark. We have two other baits that are getting hit about three times a week a piece with almost all hits after dark. Last year four black bears were harvested in Juneau County and let me tell you there were a lot of hunters that put a lot of time and money into harvesting, or not harvesting a bear in this neck of the woods. Just to put things into perspective, when Doug runs the baits his total round trip is a 171-mile drive and he has four hikes into the woods while carrying a five-gallon bucket of granola, trail mix and cookies that weighs about 40-pounds to each bait sight. Each hike is a round trip of between 1 to 1.5 miles. During the week, Doug works from 5 a.m. until 1:30 at UW Hospitals, American Center on the east side of Madison, the weekday baiting was a killer for my buddy of about 45-years, but he never made a single complaint. I have harvested several bears in my lifetime, so there never was any doubt that Doug who had never harvested a black bear would be the one hunting our most active bait. Today I sat in a red pine, deep in a mature forest and watched two porcupines and kept envisioning the huge black bear that is always nocturnal but hits this bait about once a week. On the walk back to my truck in the dark I got off the trail for a bit, told myself to relax and found the trail. When I picked up Doug who was hunting about 8-miles away, he had not seen a bear, but we were both very optimistic for the next nightâ€™s hunt. Thursday, Sept. 5 High 71, low 46 Tonightâ€™s hunt was a duplicate of last nights for me, two porkies, no black bear. When I picked up Doug, I would find out that his hunt was much different. Just as daylight was fading, he saw movement in some dense brush, it was a good-sized bear and Dougâ€™s main concern was that he was running out of daylight. With just enough daylight left Doug took a shot, the black bear took off and Doug headed for the place where I would pick him up. When I pulled in, I was told this magical story and it started with â€œMark, I think I harvested a mature bear!â€? We did the 3/4s of a mile walk back to his bait sight and by using headlamps found blood in the direc-

tion the bear had run off. We headed back to the truck with a plan to find it in the morning. Friday, Sept. 6 High 70, low 43 Derek Cibulka is Dougâ€™s 20-year-old son and would be the third man in this operation as we carried a homemade stretcher into the woods and pulled a feed cart as far as we could get it. The last part of this hike is dense forest and then marsh. We found Dougâ€™s bear right away and the mood was incredible as our trophy was a dandy and the kill was clean with a shot right through the heart. Getting the bear back to the truck was a physical test for each of us as when we later weighed it at my good friend Dale Nicholâ€™s butcher shop â€œPittsville Meatsâ€? it weighed 315-pounds with a live weight of 378. It would be impossible to describe how happy we were after all of our hard work and fun, and all I can say is that I love hunting black bear! Sunset.

Missy came back to HSBC due to a change in her household. This fawn-colored, seven-yearold puggle is adaptable, affectionate and smart. She is already housetrained, knows a lot of basic manners (sit, stay, wait), enjoys getting brushed e and loves car rides. Missy a iis not a fan of loud noises, a and her ears need regular c cleaning. She is excited tto be with people of all a ages. However, she tends tto guard her food a bit ttoo much. At 36 pounds, M Missy would benefit from a personal trainer to help h her live a long, healthy Missy life. Patty is a timid girl at first meet but donâ€™t let that fool you; she just needs a little bit of time and patience to get used to new people. Then youâ€™ll be fast friends with this 53-pound, black and white Pitbull mix. Patty especially loves to trade affection and will shower you with doggy kisses! She takes treats gently, is house-trained and patiently sits when asked. The shelter staff recommends that Patty be a spoiled only pet in her new home. Itâ€™s not too early to talk about Dancing for the Dogs (and Cats)! This yearâ€™s festivities are scheduled for Saturday, Oct. 26 at the Webster Community Center. If you attended last year, you already know that it is an evening of food, fun, and dancing! But HSBC needs Patty some help! They need up to five electric roasters to use at the event. Contact the shelter if you can lend a roaster to them for the night. HSBC has also just unveiled a prize available for bidding! Between now and the date of the event, the shelter will be accepting bids over $500 for a used 2000 Arctic Cat Z440 snowmobile. The bids will be opened and a winner announced at the fundraiser. For a look at this prize, check the Facebook page, or call 715-222-9375 to schedule a time to take a look. Bids should be sent to: PO Box 621, Webster, WI 54893.

Victrex gives back to the community Victrex is a company that is a world leader in PEEK and PAEK-based polymer solution. According to their website, they partner with businesses around the globe to drive new technologies and shape future performance. One of their branches are right here in Grantsburg and at this branch, they make and test micro-gears. Victrex has a ‘Giving Back to the Community” initiative. They find individuals and/or businesses in the community that they can help and give back to. Kris Stavne, an employee of Victrex said, “We’re part of a company from India and they have a ‘giving something back’ and so it’s encouraging everyone to do that [give back to their community].” Victrex chose to help Burnett Medical Center (BMC) with their initiative last Wednesday. They got together some employees who volunteered to help and provided new mulch to replace the old mulch in BMC’s gardens. There were over 25 employees who donated their time to help spread the new mulch in the gardens. When the work was done, BMC provided the volunteers with root beer floats to share with the residents of the Continuing Care Center (CCC). The volunteers enjoyed their floats while also taking the time to converse and spend time with the CCC residents. Halle Pardun, the marketing director, said on behalf of BMC that they are “thankful to be in a compassion-

ate community and to receive such great support from another local business.”

Arrive alive tour SIREN–– The Arrive Alive Tour from UNITE will be visiting the Siren High School on Thursday, September 19, from 8:15 a.m. to 2:15 p.m. It will also be in Webster the following day, September 20. UNITE’s Arrive Alive Tour program uses a high-tech simulator, impact video, and a number of other resources to educate the public about the dangers of intoxicated driving. The simulator allows participants to experience the potential consequences of impaired driving in a controlled environment. Nearly one-third of all traffic deaths involve alcohol-impaired drivers. Every two minutes, a person is injured in a drunk driving crash. On average, two in three people will be involved in a drunk driving crash in their lifetime. In 2014, the highest percentage of drunk drivers involved in fatal crashes were in the age range of 21 to 24. Every day, people drive drunk more than 300,000 times. However, only about 3,200 of those people are arrested. One of the most commonly recognized driving distractions is cell phone use. About 89 percent of all Americans have a cell phone, according to CTIAThe Wireless Association. Drivers under 20-year-old have the highest proportion of distraction-related fatal crashes according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. Their lack of driving experience can contribute to critical misjudgments if they become distracted. Not surprisingly, they text more than any other age group, and the number of young drivers who text is only increasing. UNITE brings health and wellness programs to high schools, colleges, and communities across the nation. Its programs are designed to heighten awareness to the dangers and consequences of impaired driving. These events have a powerful impact on students to reinforce the subjects that schools and parents teach them daily.

Break out the Bubbly

parkling wines are infused with carbon dioxide, which makes them bubbly. Common types of sparkling wines are Champagne, which comes exclusively from the Champagne region of France; Italian asti and prosecco; and Spanish cava. They’re usually white, but there are red varietals like Brachetto, sparkling shiraz and Lambrusco.

Here are some tips for serving and enjoying sparkling wines. CHILL OUT White sparkling wines should be served chilled. Put the bottle in ice water for a half hour or in the fridge for three hours. Red bottles should also be chilled but then pulled out to warm up to 50 to 55 degrees. Never chill in the freezer. When opening the bottle, you don’t want the cork to fly across the room in dramatic fashion. Instead, loosen the cork slightly and let the pressure slowly release. THE POUR Pour sparkling wines slowly and in small amounts, letting the bubbles settle before adding more wine to the glass. Pouring at an angle will help preserve the wine’s fizziness. It may take you two or three passes to fill a flute to just past half full. Don’t go much past half; the wine will warm up too much before it can be finished.

STORAGE Sparkling wines don’t usually improve with age, so you should en-

joy them as soon as you buy them. Opened bottles can be resealed with either a Champagne seal or a

standard wine cork and stored at as low a temperature as possible.

Take a Wine Trip

rab some friends or your other half and hit the road for a fun journey through your favorite vines and vintages. Keep reading for some tips on how to plan and take the perfect wine trip.

PICK YOUR POISONS Decide what kinds of wines you like and what kinds you want to learn about to decide where you want to go. This may mean doing some sampling at home. Find a local liquor store with a knowledgeable wine staff to help point you toward some varietals that you may not have tried before.

PICK YOUR WINERIES When youâ€™re planning your itinerary, mix up new and old wineries and include several alternates. Consider peak times (call if you need to) and leave plenty of time for travel, touring and browsing gift shops. An average day should have

three to five stops, but if youâ€™re going to a large winery or one youâ€™re particularly excited about, leave more time. HAVE A DESIGNATED DRIVER If youâ€™re traveling to an area where wines are a big industry, there may be services to do this for you. If not, pick a designated driver for either the whole trip or one for each day. BRING AN EMPTY BOX Youâ€™re sure to come across some bottles you just canâ€™t live without. Make sure to bring a box with you to carry off your new goodies and have a plan for getting all those bottles safely home. Consider mail-

ing them or shipping them home rather than trying to fly with them. THINK OUTSIDE THE BOTTLE If you want to do more than just tasting, consider a trip like a wine hike, wine cruise or another unique trip. You can also add a wine festival to your itinerary. Check local community calendars and event listings.

KEEP YOUR BUDGET IN MIND Factor in flights, cars, winery fees, shipping costs for those bottles you have to have, passports, hotels, meals and any and everything you can think of. If your dream is a trip to France but you canâ€™t afford it, ask your wine store experts to point you toward some domestic varieties you might also enjoy and enjoy visiting.

Trends in Tableware

STEMLESS Stemless wine glasses have been around for a few years. Easy to store and dishwasher friendly, stemless glasses are a sleek, modern addition to your table. They are also called wine tumblers and are available in the usual shapes. Be aware, though, if youâ€™re planning on a fancy vintage, that stemless glasses can actually change the way wine tastes. For some pours, holding the glass by the bowl, like you must do with a stemless glass, transfers your body heat to the wine, making it warmer and changing the taste. INSULATED If stemless glasses are for casual wine drinking, insulated cups are for tailgates. The most popular models also are usually stemless, though some plastic stemmed versions are available. Look for a cup thatâ€™s easy to pick up and hold (no slick finishes) and that has a lid thatâ€™s comfortable to sip through. These tumblers also can be used for other drinks, such as cocktails

or sodas, and make great gifts.

WINE DECANTERS Decanting a wine just means taking it out of the bottle. Usually made of clear glass, but sometimes cut glass or crystal, wine decanters allow the wine to breathe and sediment to settle. Decanters come in all shapes and sizes, but the newest lines come in sexy swoops and swirls reminiscent of a snake.

What is a Wine Blend? Just like the name suggests, these wines are blends of different varietals. MORE THAN JUST A GRAPE Legally, even varietals can be a blend. In the U.S., a varietal needs to be 75 percent of one type of grape. Wineries can add up to 25 percent of other grapes to enhance the original varietal and still be labeled as that grape. Blends contain at least 40 to 50 percent of one type and a mix of two or more others.

e’re familiar with varietals such as pinot noir and chardonnay, but you may see some labels that say red blend or white blend.

COMPLEXITY Blending enhances aromas, colors, textures and body. Common varietals used in blending are malbec, merlot and cabernet sauvignon. Blends are usually mixed in a steel tank, and more expensive blends are aged in oak. Aging, bottling and fermentation methods and timelines often vary from winery to winery.

TRADITION There are some traditionally blended wines. Rioja, for example, comes from a region of Spain that includes La Rioja, Navarre and Alava. Wines from this region are normally a blend of grapes and can be red, or tinto; white, or blanco; or rose, rosado. The most widely used variety of tinto grape is tempranillo, which contributes the main flavors and aging potential. It’s mixed, usually, with garnacha tinta, graciano and mazuelo, used for seasoning and aromas. TRY SOMETHING NEW Start with a varietal you like (though you’re not likely to see pinot noir; it’s too delicate) and look for blends that include that grape. You also can look for blends from regions you like. Find a good wine store and ask the experts there to point you to new blends and bottles for you to try.

raft beers, or those from small breweries, have been popular for years. Now, craft wines are on the rise. According to the Craft Wine Association, a certified craft wine is a commercially available, small-production wine made in a total run of fewer than 5,000 cases.

Authenticity and traceability are key components in certification, as well. With the growth of eating local movements, craft wines are poised for a big 2019 and massive growth. FINDING A CRAFT WINE In addition to networking with local wine stores, you can also consult the Craft Wine Association to find bottles and wineries to your liking. You can also spend the day exploring local wineries and tasting wines and finding new tastes. Wineries aren’t just in California; most states have at least one. IT’S ABOUT THE STORY Moreso than wines made by big wineries, craft wines have a story

to tell. The story of the farmer and the winemaker, and even of the region in which they are produced. If you’re going to travel, look for local craft wines to pick up. They make great souvenirs and gifts. BEWARE Just like with the craft beer movement, some wines may be mass produced wines masquerading as a craft bottle. Lean on the experts at your wine store. Also look for the following subtle clues outlined by wine merchant Winestyr. Look at the label for phrases like “grown, produced and bottled by.” Also look for locations. The more specific the location, the more likely you’re holding a craft wine.

Webster holds onto victory in overtime SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

TONY – A potential shutout win eluded the Webster football team but an overtime win didn’t. After taking a 14-0 lead over Flambeau into the fourth quarter on Friday, the Tigers were unable to answer a pair of fourth-quarter scores and were forced into extra play, where another defensive stand was needed to remain undefeated. Mason Gustafson provided the win-securing play in overtime, grabbing his third interception of the game to preserve a 26-20 win to keep the Tigers’ record spotless at 3-0. “The defense stepped up and saved us several times after turnovers,” Webster coach Andy Smith said. “Mason ended overtime with his third interception (and) Tim Fornego made several drive-stopping plays at (middle) linebacker.” The Webster defense made several key stops in the first half, helping the offense build a two-touchdown lead. Nathan Stadler gave the Tigers an early lead with a 76-yard touchdown run in the first quarter and though

SIREN – The Siren football team was forced to make an adjustment. Entering Friday’s game with a 3-0 record, the Dragons had to make a lineup change and play without Cordell Fischer – the team’s leading rusher and key defensive player at linebacker – due to an illness. That moved Trevor Stanford to the lead back position and he responded with large numbers.

The Falcons got on the board with just over nine minutes remaining in regulation, scoring on a 9-yard touchdown pass, though the Tigers stopped the 2-point conversion to keep the score at 14-6. However, the defense was again up against their own end zone less than three minutes later. Another touchdown pass pulled the Falcons to within two points and in need of a conversion to tie the game. They converted this time and made it a 14-14 tie with less than seven minutes remaining. While the Tigers were unable to get the game-winning points in the time remaining, their defense helped maintain the tie and force overtime. Flambeau then notched the first score in the opening overtime, going back to the pass game for a 15-yard touchdown connection. But the lead stayed

GRANTSBURG – Entering the week with a nine-match win streak, the Grantsburg volleyball team will make the most of the upcoming weekend off by staying away from the net. The Pirates extended their win streak by defeating Luck and Siren last week, despite the recent challenged they faced in addition to their opponents. “We are fighting fatigue and sickness,” Grantsburg coach Deb Allaman-Johnson said. “We will sleep and heal.” Yet, the Pirates continued their unblemished September record, starting with a three-set win (25-12, 25-11, 25-14) over Luck on Sept. 10.

Stanford collected the loose ball and returned it 20 yards for a touchdown. Wyatt D’Jock added the extra point to put Siren up 13-0. The Dragons’ defense negated the two early fumbles by the offense and kept the visitor scoreless through halftime, allowing the lead to be increased before halftime. “The starting defense allowed less than 60 yards when they were in there,” Karsten said. “This is accomplished without Fischer at linebacker; it was a great defensive effort.” Stanford scored his first offensive touchdown of the game in the second quarter, catching a Jordan Webster pass for a 15-yard touchdown. Another extra point from D’Jock gave the Dragons a 20-0 lead entering halftime. Siren, more specifically Stanford, more than doubled that advantage in the third quarter.

Webster went 9-for-21 passing for 230 yards; Gage Holmes had 46 yards rushing and Nick Webster added two catches for 39 yards. Jimmy Krentze had 10 tackles on defense for Siren; Gavyn Anton had eight tackles and Zayden Anderson had an interception. Now the Dragons concentrate on their upcoming matchup with Luck, with their unblemished record on the line. “We have played some real good teams in weeks 1-4, but nothing like we’ll see (this week),” Karsten said. “We will need a great defensive effort. It will be a good measuring stick for us to know how good we are.” Luck is coming off its most-lopsided win of the season – a 74-0 victory over Bruce. It was the second time this season the Cardinals have scored 70 or more points in a game; they have averaged 62 points per game in their four wins.

We struggled with flow and committed more unforced errors in one match than we did in the entire season prior.” The Pirates entered the week with a 13-1 overall record and have not surrendered a set during their nine-match win streak.

The Eagles’ defense held Grantsburg scoreless in the second half and forced three redzone fumbles to drop the Pirates’ record to 1-3 on the season. “We drove the ball fairly well all night but fumbled three times inside their 20-yard line, with two of those inside the 5-yard line,” Grantsburg coach Adam Hale said. Meanwhile, Unity’s rushing yardage total alone was nearly more than the Pirates managed in both the run and pass game combined. And it was the

14-0 lead. But for this score, the Pirates had a long-distance answer of their own. Quimby broke loose for a 55-yard touchdown run that got Grantsburg on the board and Jared VanWatermuelen followed with the extra point, pulling the Pirates to within a touchdown at 14-7. Unfortunately for the Pirates, this score was their last of the half and only of the game. And despite picking two Bloom pass attempts in the game and forcing a fumble, Grantsburg was unable to turn those into points. “We didn’t capitalize on their turnovers,” Hale said. Despite the struggles, the Pirates still trailed by just a touchdown at halftime and were still within a score in the fourth quarter. But a scoreless third quarter for both teams was followed by just one touchdown and it belonged to

Unity. Heath Foeller capped the scoring with a 5-yard touchdown run that gave Unity a 20-7 lead with six minutes remaining in regulation. Sterling McKinley was 11-for-21 passing for 57 yards and Aidan Burkman added 66 rushing yards on two carries. Reed Arnold and Aidan Burkman both had three catches for 19 yards. Trevor Anderson led the defense with 14 tackles and Carter Johnson added 13; Zach Miller and Dane Jensen had an interception each. Unity totaled 257 yards on the ground and added 120 in the pass game while its defense limited Grantsburg to 264 total yards of offense. The Pirates return home this Friday to host Clear Lake (3-1), which defeated Elmwood-Plum City 33-8 last week.

Packers ride Rodgers' hot start to 21-16 win over Vikings nine of his first 10 passes for 134 yards and two touchdowns and had a perfect 158.3 rating through the first quarter. He finished 22 of 34 for 209 yards. Rodgers and new coach Matt LaFleur experimented with Rodgers wearing a playcall wristband in the hope that it would speed up the play-calling process and get the offense out of the huddle quicker. “Yeah, this is probably the wordiest offense I've been in since Cal,” said Rodgers, who played college ball at California after transferring from Butte Community College. “I think it just helps with communication. He doesn't have to say 12 syllables to me, and then I say 12 syllables in the huddle. It helps speed things up a little bit. But we didn't use it a whole lot. We only used it about five or six times.” After scoring on each of its first three

KEITH JENKINS AP SPORTS WRITER

GREEN BAY––All that mattered to Aaron Rodgers on Sunday was that the Packers won. That's it. Rodgers threw two early touchdowns and Green Bay held on for a 21-16 victory over the Minnesota Vikings. “The biggest thing is that we're 2-0,” he said. “I know we owe a lot of that to our defense and (defensive coordinator) Mike Pettine and his staff and those guys for being opportunistic and making plays when they had to. But I think there's still a lot of great potential in this offense.” On a day when the Packers honored late Hall of Famer Bart Starr at halftime, Rodgers put on quite a show _ particularly early. Rodgers completed

this summer?

Summer is upon us and our beautiful lakes and beaches are definitely the place to be Dr. Tim Novick to stay cool. While swimming is a fun activity for the whole family, it can be dangerous if safety measures are not taken. It’s important to stay close and alert while watching children in and around the water. Avoid drinking alcohol when supervising children and when you are swimming to keep everyone safe. Know the basics of swimming, CPR, and the basics of life-saving so you can assist if an emergency arises. Other safety tips include having lifejackets available for all children and adults in and around water and having the appropriate equipment for your pool or spa such as a fence and locked gates. 257 W St George Ave Grantsburg, WI 54840 (715) 463-5353 Visit us at: www.burnettmedicalcenter.com

Father’s Day is almost upon us. If you’re a dad, you certainly may enjoy getting cards and gifts. But, over time, you will gain even greater satisfaction Josh Prusinski, CFP® from what you can give your children – such as some Financial Advisor valuable financial lessons. Here are a few to consider: First, you could discuss the importance of setting goals and investing for them, even though these goals, such as retirement, may be decades away. You can even make it more meaningful to your children by saying another goal is saving enough to help send them to college. Also, talk about the importance of putting time on your side. Let your children know that it’s of great value to start investing as early as possible. You might also discuss some financial management issues, such as the necessity of living within your means and the need to pay your debts on time. By sharing these lessons with your children, you will give them something to think about – and you may even start them on the path to a lifetime of solid financial moves.

As far as your home goes, most all insurance policies cover storm damage Gary Nelson but remember that a deductible goes along with that. You will pay the deductible and the company will then pay the balance of the damage. Some companies, however, may have a higher storm deductible so you will want to check your policy. As far as your vehicles go, comprehensive coverage (or what may be listed as “other than collision”) covers storm damage. If you have this coverage and a tree falls on your car or you get hail damage, you are covered but, again, minus the deductible. It’s a good time to look at your policies so you know how they work.

possessions, Green Bay's offense failed to muster another point. But the hot start was enough to win. The Packers remained unbeaten under LaFleur after opening the NFL's 100th season with a victory at rival Chicago. They also beat the Vikings (1-1) for the fifth time in the past seven games at Lambeau Field. Minnesota's Dalvin Cook had a career-high 154 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries. It was the third-year pro's second consecutive game with over 100 yards rushing. Cook also had 37 yards receiving in the loss. “We're just trying to find our rhythm,” Cook said. “It was a hostile environment. We knew what we were coming into. Tried to prepare as well as we could. You can never replicate a game. Just trying to find our rhythm. We found it, but they jumped on us pretty early.” After throwing the ball just 10 times in the opener against Atlanta, Kirk Cousins finished 14 of 32 with 230 yards, a touchdown and two interceptions. Cousins was picked off by Kevin King in the end zone late in the fourth quarter. “You just can't do that, can't do that,” Cousins said of the interception. “It happened last week in our game against us. We talked about it all week, you just can't do that. It's uncharacteristic of me.” The Vikings are 5-2-1 in their last eight meetings against Green Bay. Rodgers and Davante Adams connected on a 39-yard completion on the Packers' first offensive play. Rodgers found running back Jamaal Williams for a 15-yard touchdown to cap a fourplay, 75-yard drive. Adams finished with 106 yards on nine catches. “We started off a lot faster,” Adams said. “That's definitely what we were after this week.” It took Green Bay's offense all of 12 minutes to score more points (14) than it did in the season opener at Chicago (10). After a missed field goal by Minnesota, receiver Geronimo Allison, who did not see a single pass against the Bears, gave the Packers a two-score advantage on a 12-yard strike from Rodgers. Green Bay took over at the Vikings 33 after defensive lineman Kenny Clark sacked Cousins, forcing a fumble. Dean

Lowry recovered the loose ball. The Packers took a commanding 21-0 lead with 2 minutes to play in the first half on 2-yard run by Aaron Jones. “We came out hot,” said Jones, who finished with 116 yards on 23 carries. “We thought we could do no wrong. We've just got to continue to work at it because the fourth drive, fifth drive, sixth drive, we want points on those as well.” After rushing for 111 yards and two touchdowns in a win last week against the Falcons, Cook broke out for a 75yard score following a missed tackle by rookie safety Darnell Savage. “Eventually one of us was going to make a play to get this game rolling, and it was just me that made a play,” Cook said. “Whatever to get a team rolling, to get this thing going, that was the play to do it.” Stefan Diggs scored the Vikings' other touchdown with a 45-yard grab with 9:12 to play in the third. “Disappointing loss today,” Vikings coach Mike Zimmer said. “We fought hard, but we didn't play well enough to win. We had some dumb penalties. ... The interception at the end of the ballgame hurt.” Minnesota had eight penalties for 100 yards. INJURIES Packers: S Raven Greene was carted off the field with an ankle injury following the first play of the second half. He did not return. STARR CELEBRATION The Packers honored Starr during a celebration that included a video tribute, words from Starr's wife, Cherry, and an appearance by NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell. Starr, who died in May at 85, was the MVP of the first two Super Bowls and won the league MVP award in 1966 with the Packers. Starr has the highest postseason passer rating (104.8) of any QB in NFL history and a postseason record of 9-1. Starr was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the Packers Hall of Fame in 1977. NEXT UP Vikings: Host Raiders on Sept. 22. Packers: Host Broncos on Sept. 22.

Fall pictures Jesus

Pastor George Selbher Grace Baptist Church

This upcoming Monday, September 23, 2019, is the Fall Equinox, which means Summer has come to an end and Fall has arrived. For most, the vacation season is over, school is in full swing, and autumn begins to dominate the landscape. Crops, fruits, and vegetables are ready for harvest, as we transition to shorter daylight hours and cooler temperatures. These environmental changes induce leaves to stop their food-making processes. As a result, chlorophyll breaks down, the green color disappears, and the vast array of concealed colors – colors that have been in the leaves all along – are finally revealed. Marvelously, these changes picture God’s

amazing grace as He transforms us in and through the cross-work of Jesus Christ. God created us perfectly in the vibrant image of His glorious splendor, freed from the stain of sin. But collectively the human race – both you and I – rebelled against God when He created us, and the brilliance of our existence faded into disastrous darkness and despair. As sin marred the creation, fellowship with God was broken, and we now needed rescued from our spiritual bankruptcy. But thankfully for us, God had a plan! He chose to send His Son Jesus Christ – full of radiant perfection – to live a sinless life, die a crucifixion death, and rise from the grave so that we, too, could be resurrected from

spiritual death to eternal life. By believing by faith in Jesus Christ, He – through His red blood poured out on the cross – washes our sins as white as snow. And through a renewed, personal relationship with Jesus Christ, our darkened lives fade away, and our new lives in Christ appear in the presence of His unfading magnificence. Christ in us, now reflects the glorious radiance of Jesus Christ, and our lives are once again full of life, color, meaning, purpose, and an eternal future secured in heaven for anyone who genuinely believes by faith in Jesus Christ for a new life in Him. Believe by faith in Jesus Christ, and the colors of your life will forever be revealed in Him!

FARM SAFETY

BURNETT COUNTY SENTINEL

SEPTEMBER 18, 2019

www.burnettcountysentinel.com

National Farm Safety and Health Week is a great opportunity to stress the importance of keeping our farm families safe and healthy. The agriculture industry is unique in that so many of its members live, work and play at the worksite. This often increases the level to which farmers and their families are exposed to dangerous chemicals, machinery and livestock. Because of this potentially hazardous environment, it’s essential that each and every person on the farm is experienced and knowledgeable in the area of farm safety.
