Gymnasts take home opener The Grantsburg Cooperative gymnastics team won their home opener last Friday, Dec. 2 in Grantsburg, scoring 123.425 over Menomonie, with a 109.50 final team score.

“The first meet can be frightful, especially starting the season with the home crowd,” stated head coach Kathy Lund. “We had a great start on vault with a one, two, three wins from Anita Finch 8.7, freshman Abby Rombach 8.5, and Khylie Young-Garayt with 8.45.”

Lund noted that Izzie Whitwam (Menomonie) placed first on Bars with an 8.0, while (Abby) Rombach placed second with a 7.7, Khylie Young-Garayt placed third with 7.65 and Anita Finch came in fifth with a 6.55.

“On beam both teams struggled with falls. Freshman Sammi Kramer was the first Grantsburg gymnast to have a ‘stick routine.’ Maddi Kramer placed 5th 6.3, Romach placed 4th 7.55, Young-Garayt 2nd 8.0 and Finch with the 2nd stick routine scoring 8.275; Delaney Untz (Menomonie) 1st 8.5,” Lund said. “We ended the meet with the excitement from the crowd, topping the meet off with another one, two, three wins.” Finch finished with a 8.625, Young-Garayt 8.35 and Rombach 8.0. In the All-Around, Young-Garyt placed 1st with a 32.45, followed close behind by Finch with a 32.45 and Rombach in fifth with 31.75.

“For our returning gymnasts this was an impressive start, personal best for Kandice Capistrant and Natalie Johnson on Floor. Khylie Young-Garayt and Anita Finch had personal bests on Beam and AllAround,” Lund said. “JV had a great meet too!”

The Grantsburg cooperative gymnastics team has their next meet this coming Saturday, Dec. 10, with the Chippewa Snowflake Invitational at 11:00 a.m.

Chairman Taylor introduced the resolution recommended by the Administration Committee. Motion to approve Resolution 2022-24 Authorizing the Issuance of a Tax Deed – Voyager Village Lots was made by Supervisor Moody, seconded by Supervisor Mullen. Motion carried, voice vote.

RESOLUTION 2022-25 – SUPPORTING CHANGES TO THE 2016 GLACIAL LAKE GRANTSBURG PROPERTIES MASTER PLAN WHEREAS, citizens from the Town of Siren to the Town of West Marshland have been adversely affected by water levels at both Amsterdam Sloughs and Crex Meadows Wildlife Area; and WHEREAS, citizens in the Towns of Grantsburg and Anderson have been adversely affected by water levels in the Fish Lake Wildlife Area; and WHEREAS, in addition to excessive groundwater causing flooding, homes have experienced higher levels of iron and other minerals in their well water resulting in costs borne by the home owner; and WHEREAS, the vital information contained in a water study by the Department of Natural Resources noted these issues, however the Glacial Lake Grantsburg Properties Master Plan has not been changed to reflect that fact; and WHEREAS, the correction of several sentences in one paragraph of the Master Plan will provide a framework to correct the issues.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, the Burnett County Board of Supervisors do hereby support changes to the Master Plan to reflect the water quality issue; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, the Board supports the efforts of Town of West Marshland resident Duke Tucker and Town of West Marshland Clerk Kerri Harter who addressed the Natural Resources Board to have necessary changes made.

RESOLUTION 2022-26 – NATIONAL CHILD WELFARE WORKER APPRECIATION WEEK WHEREAS, nurturing families and permanent connections are critical to a child’s well-being. While most parents want to do what is best for their families, they cannot always do it alone. Child Welfare Workers specialize in building upon the strengths within a family and their community to help provide a safe and loving environment for their children. In some instances, Child Welfare Workers must also intervene to protect children from harm; and WHEREAS, the last several years have shown us that every family needs help sometimes. Since 2018, Wisconsin has been working toward transforming the child welfare system to become more in-home, family-focused and collaborative. This effort aims to dramatically reduce the proportion of Child Protective Services (CPS) and Youth Justice (YJ) children and youth who are served outside of their family home; and WHEREAS, Public Child Welfare Workers play a key role in helping foster a system supportive of healthy families. They aim to decrease maltreatment, improve outcomes, enhance access to services, and decrease downstream costs.

WHEREAS, with the efforts of Child Welfare Workers, 4.5 fewer children have been removed per day in 2021 as compared to 2017 in Wisconsin. Let it be known that removals, regardless of length, have a profound impact on the child and family and have been long associated with negative outcomes for both children and families, including long-term harmful consequences.

WHEREAS, Burnett County Child Welfare Workers align with these goals in providing services for children, youth and families in need of protective services and other social welfare programming. They are committed to case management, assessment of child(ren) and family needs, safety recommendations, court engagement, collaboration with community partners and resources.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the Burnett County Board of Supervisors hereby officially recognize National Child Welfare Worker Appreciation Week of 2022 from September 12th through September 16th, and thank the following Burnett County employees of the Health and Human Services Department: Shayna Schmid Snyder, Penny Dunlavey, Abigail Mitchell, Samuel Pioske, Emily Henderson, Amye Mangen, Tammy Hopke, Tracy Gifford and Allison Fern.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, with this letter of resolution we formally thank, with gratitude, our Child Welfare employees, current and future, for your dedicated public service to the residents of Burnett County.

Chairman Taylor introduced the resolution recommended by the Health and Community Services Committee. Motion to approve Resolution 2022-26 National Child Welfare Worker Appreciation Week was made by Supervisor Richard, seconded by Supervisor Moody. Motion carried, voice vote.

What is Advent? be said about faithfully practicing our church traditions whether we feel like it or not. It is an act of worship. Often practicing these traditions in a meaningful way can change our hearts and bring us to the place where God’s joy can take over, no matter what your circumstances. Advent is the season that leads up to Christmas. The word Advent means “coming.”

Not “Christmas is coming.” We don’t need reminders of that, but Jesus is coming. Advent

BURNETT COUNTY SENTINEL

DECEMBER 7, 2022 www.burnettcountysentinel.com

PLAN: Comittee has local representatives CONTINUED FROM PAGE 2

As noted in 2009 when the county underwent their first such planning process, the goal of a Comp Plan is not easy to define but was described as “… a document that helps guide the type, location, density, and appearance of community growth and development, generally over a 20-year period.

A comprehensive plan represents the goals, objectives, policies, and intentions of the local government which adopts it. Comprehensive plans include policies and recommendations for several elements which together describe the physical, social, and economic development of the community.”

That outline and committee work led to a 2010 adoption of their current “2030” plan, which incorporated the similar local plans from local units of government and also addressed specific issues with plans, such as forestry and land use.

However, the plan has been tested, at times, with changes in land use demands, changing populations, technology

and housing shortages, as well as recent pandemic responses and impacts, with more out-of-state and seasonal residents taking up permanent residence in the county, while also seeing possible conflicts on land use from large agricultural operations to recreational activities and expansions, such as ATV use, campgrounds, trail expansion and even remote work options through additional highspeed internet access.

The committee has a huge task at hand and lots of information to assess before they make their changes and updates.

Since the Com Plan law was first passed in

1999, the state has further clarified the need and legal requirements for comprehensive planning, and now has “consistency requirements” regarding Comprehensive Planning laws. According to past documents, those changes mean that “… all zoning, land division, and official map related decisions made by a community are consistent with applicable policies and recommendations of its comprehensive plans.”

The Comp Plan process is also a chance for the various communities to weigh-in on what they believe is important, needed, and possible, and is consistent with what was referred to as the “Sideboard Approach,” where the county plan is meant to dovetail and work in concert with local and regional plans, sand not be a county-only document that sits on a shelf.

The new Comp Plan Committee will also outline ways the public can and should be involved and will present their final proposal to the full county board for approval, down the line.

SIREN: Board tentatively approves adding cross-country as a varsity athletic option CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

policy that if a person was found propping a door, that person would be dismissed outright. “If something bad happens, well …”

Board president Peggy Moore was not as convinced that was the best course of action.

“I’m not in favor of threatening people,” Moore said, noting that it was common policy in the past, if anything to cool off a gymnasium or activity area.

“It never used to be a thing.”

After a brief discussion at their Nov. 28 board of education meeting, the board voted to adjust the school policy handbook to include the door propping reference, although it will not be grounds for dismissal, there may be consequences for the person responsible.

IN OTHER BOARD BUSINESS • The board heard good news on their elementary school

numbers, especially in the third-grade classes, where they have so many students, they moved to hire a short-term substitute to allow for a smaller class size and to help in certain situations. They currently have 21 children in two classes, but the new substitute will allow them to adjust the class sizes and activity chaperoning when needed.

• Administrator Kevin Shetler outlined a letter they are sending to their elected representatives, inviting them to attend the school and see for themselves how budgeting issues have affected the district, while also outlining their priorities for the legislature in the coming year.

“There’s going to be lots of jockeying and infighting,” Shetler said on the coming budget battels with a divided government, where the Legislature is controlled by Republicans with a Democratic governor. “We just need to

make sure we have a common voice.”

• Native American coordinator Tara Voss outlined the latest numbers on Native students, with 140 students currently, out of 416 total students in the district, meaning they have approximately 33% Native population, which is an increase over last year, when they had 132 Native students out of 405 students.

• Tara Voss also noted that she has applied for a grant to build an outdoor classroom, at a location to be determined later. Board members greeted the possibility with positive comments and noted that it’s something many teachers have hoped to have in place soon.

“Everybody’s very interested,” stated President Peggy Moore. “We just don’t have the money for it yet.”

• There was a lengthy discussion on the possibility of adding cross-country as a fulltime sport option for students

in both middle and high school, after they added a team at the last minute this fall.

The board generally was in favor of adding the program, and head coach Jeff Howe said that even though they only had a month to assemble a team, they had half a dozen girls who signed up and did well, with more expressing interest for next year, including some middle school students and more boys.

“A lot of middle school kids are excited,” Howe said with a smile. “We’re trying to get the kids who were otherwise just sitting at home.”

Howe said they spent about $650 total last season on the sport, mainly in transportation and meet entry costs, but he noted that several schools waived their fee, since they were trying to build momentum for the program at Siren.

“Webster (waived the fee) because they knew we were just getting started,” Howe said,

noting that they will have six meets per season.

The discussion noted that cross-country is a lifelong sport that may bring in students who otherwise would not be involved in athletic activities.

Howe and Shetler pointed out a looming deadline for the district to commit to the sport before early February, otherwise they would not be able to have Siren students compete in regional and sectionals as an official sport.

“We can’t wait until January,” Howe said.

After some discussion on costs, the board tentatively approved adding cross-country and tasked athletic director Ryan Karsten with determining the budget and presenting it to the board at their next meeting, later this month.
