LeSieur: attorney must pay $8,987 in costs
ATVs:approval could favor other townsFROM PAGE 1Aislative & Judicial and High-way committees.
Legislative & JudicialCommittee member ChuckHayes of Presque Islereminded other supervisorsabout the history of ATVs inthe county.
“Public opposition is notlisted and nowhere does it sayvoters of the county opposedthis,” said Hayes, referring toa February 2004 countywideadvisory vote that showedopposition to ATVs 5,457 to3,200. “Yes it was advisory,but the county acted on it in2004 and I can’t see anychange in county attitudes.Positions are fixed on thisand probably won’t change.Some say this is a town issue,but I take the view it’s notsince it is a county road. It’snot up to the town; it’s up tothe county.
“This sort of reminds me ofthe story of the camel whostuck its nose through thetent flap. Should this pass, itwill be easier for the nexttown to come in,” predictedHayes.
Committee member JimBehling brought up thePhelps ATV issue and howthe county reacted.
“In Phelps, we listenedclosely to what the town hadto say and supported that.Here, Lac du Flambeau hasseen the value of this ordi-nance and it does not affectour resolution on county-owned lands; this is for ashort road segment,” Behlingsaid. “The wisdom of this
ordinance limits ATV use toonly that 0.7 mile and thetown of Lac du Flambeau hasdetermined this will have asignificant (positive) econom-ic impact on their communi-ty.”
Behling made a motion toapprove the resolution, but itdied for lack of a second. Dis-cussion then continued.
“The referendum in Lac duFlambeau on allowing ATVson town roads lost by 17 votesand was advisory. We’ve nev-er denied a town of theirwishes. The town is doingtheir own thing (opening uptown roads),” Mayer said.
“This would open up thou-sands of miles of trails forbusinesses in Lac du Flam-beau. They are in a uniquearea surrounded by threecounties that use four-wheel-ing as an attraction. I’m hav-ing a tough time. I’ve seenbusinesses closed,” said May-er. “The tribe is pro-ATVs andthe only reason for the 0.7mile is due to sacred tribalground issues.”
Highway Committeechairman Charles Rayalawas present and remindedeveryone the votes in both2004 and the more recent ref-erendum in Lac du Flambeauwere advisory and this wouldconnect three counties.
“I have a problem havingus tell a town they can’t dothis,” Rayala said. “I have areal problem having thiscounty telling a town theycan’t use their property. I’veseen places closed in mytown. We had groups thatspent a lot of money against
ATVs (in the 2004 referen-dum). I have a real problemwith the county telling a townboard they can’t do some-thing.”
Mayer related recent eco-nomic news connected withtourism and recreation.
“The issue is connectivityof trails. In Price County,ATVs are more importanteconomically than snowmo-bile trails,” said Mayer. “Thisdoes not rescind that countyresolution; this only exemptsthat 0.7 of a mile. It does notopen the flood gates. Further-more, the Lac du Flambeautown board will allow opera-tion of ATVs on town roadsand those town roads will beunder the jurisdiction of VilasCounty and we don’t haveany ordinance that addressesthat.”
Committee member GaryPeske referred to a letter hereceived on the subject.
“I’m not pro- or anti-ATVs,” Peske said. “There arebenefits to businesses anddetriments to citizens, butwhat I’m about is represent-ing people in Vilas Countyand I’ve got 25 letters on mydesk against the use of this0.7 mile.”
But Mayer returned to theeconomic conditions of todaybeing different than in 2004.
“The minority group isbusiness owners and they arestruggling,” Mayer pointedout. “We’re in the hospitalitybusiness here and if it doesn’twork, we can stop it. How dowe know if it would work ornot; there’s been lots ofchanges on the county board
since 2004.”Behling said the commit-
tee was straying out of theirarea of governance and madeanother motion attempt.
“We’re debating the valueor lack of value, public senti-ment or lack of public senti-ment and that’s not the roleof the Legislative & JudicialCommittee,” he stated. “Thereare 20 other supervisors and Ido see the value of having thecounty board debate andvote.”
Behling made anothermotion to forward the pro-posed ordinance to the countyboard and this time receiveda second from committeemember Linda Thorpe.Debate continued.
Mayer continued with theeconomic developmenttheme, saying county taxpay-ers spend $100,000 for eco-nomic development and fundthe Tourism Departmentwith $300,000.
“It’s a little bit like cuttingoff your nose to spite yourface,” Mayer said. “We’restruggling economically indiversity. We’re in the recre-ation and tourism business. Iagree we need to have 21supervisors debate this.”
But Hayes respondedthere was no opposition tospending that $400,000, but“we do have very clear opposi-tion to this.”
Calling for a vote, themotion was adopted 3-2 tosend the ordinance to go tothe county board. Voting infavor was Behling, Mayer andThorpe; against were Peskeand Hayes.

cated and was arrested.The conduct underlying the
original practicing chargeagainst LeSieur was his thirdconviction for OWI. In addi-tion to publicly reprimandinghim, the court placed a num-ber of conditions on his contin-ued practice of law.
In particular, the decisionrequired LeSieur to disclosehis health records for eachtreatment provider who pro-vided alcohol-related or sub-stance abuse-related treat-ment or services to LeSieurwith the preceding 10 years.
The order further re quiredLeSieur to undergo an alcoholand other drug abuse (AODA)evaluation by a professionalAODA counselor or treatmentprovider, who was to produce awritten report or evaluation.
Third, LeSieur’s ordermandated that for a period oftwo years, the attorney mustundergo random alcohol andsubstance abuse screenings athis own expense.
Reserve Judge WilliamEich was ultimately appointedas a referee and the Office ofLawyer Regulation (OLR)filed two motions before thereferee. One motion sought anorder from the referee direct-ing LeSieur to sign a newrelease of medical rec ords andthe second motion asked thereferee to order LeSieur toundergo an independent med-ical examination by addictionpsychiatrist Thomas Rowell.
Given LeSieur’s noncompli-ance and the court’s concernfor monitoring LeSieur’s alco-hol dependence, the refereemade four recommendationsto the court:
• LeSieur’s license to prac-tice law in Wisconsin shouldbe suspended.
• Because LeSieur has notyet complied with the condi-tions imposed on his practice,those conditions should beextended for an additional twoyears from the state of theirexpiration or the date onwhich LeSieur’s license isreinstated, which ever is later.
• LeSieur should be or -dered to submit monitoring ofhis compliance with those con-ditions by Wisconsin Law yersAssistance Program (WisLAP)as the OLR’s designee.
• LeSieur should be or -dered to submit to an indepen-dent medical examination andevaluation by Rowell.
On Sept. 17, 2012, in lightof the referee’s report and rec-ommendations, the Su premeCourt issued an order direct-ing LeSieur to show causewhy his license should not besuspended. LeSieur filed ashort response, in which heessentially argued that thecourt’s procedure for consider-ing the OLR’s mo tion was a
violation of the court’s ownrules.
Agreeing with the referee,the Supreme Court wrote:
“One who is eager to over-come any problems with alco-hol or mood-altering medica-tions would welcome assis-tance, but Attorney LeSieur
has frustrated the efforts ofthis court, the referee and theWisLAP to ensure that heremains on a productive path.This is a troubling pattern.
“We simply cannot toleratesuch disobedience of ourorders. Accordingly, we willsuspend Attorney LeSieur’s
license until he complies withthe orders of this court.”
Because LeSieur’s conductled to the filing of the OLR’smotion and the resulting pro-ceedings, the Supreme Courtalso required LeSieur to payassociated costs totaling$8,987.16.
is higher). The two runner-upfinalists each won $50,000 inprize money.
“That night, the AssociatedPress interviewed me for astory,” said Weber-Mendhamfrom her Land O’ Lakes homeMonday evening. “The nextday, I flew to New York anddid five hours of interviews ina satellite media tour for tele-vision stations across thecountry with chef MichaelSymon. He was really nice.Since I got back to Land O’Lakes, I’ve done a lot of radiostuff. Somebody from a Seat-tle radio station called me theother night.”
Weber-Mendham, 45, saidthe reality of winning the “DoUs A Flavor” contest hasn’tsunk in yet.
“The star-studded event inHollywood was very intimi-dating,” said Weber-Mend-ham. “I was pretty freakedout. I think my husband,Phil, was more excited than Iwas.”
Weber-Mendham said shebecame good friends with theother two finalists, ChristinaAbu-Judom from Phoenix,Ariz., who submitted Chicken& Waffles, and Tyler Rainerifrom Lake Zurich, Ill., whosubmitted Sriracha.
“We got to walk a Holly-wood awards show-inspiredred carpet leading into therestaurant,” said Weber-Mendham. “We then enjoyeda delicious dinner, culminat-ing with the unveiling ofAmerica’s next great potatochip flavor by Eva Longoriaand the Lay’s brand.”
Weber-Mendhamexplained how she came upwith the Cheesy Garlic Breadflavor.
“As a mom of three, goingout for pizza is a treat for myfamily. While waiting for thepizza to come to the table, wealways order a bowl of cheesygarlic bread for the family toenjoy. This tradition is whatultimately inspired the win-ning idea,” said Weber-Mend-ham.
Longoria admitted thatthe flavor is hard to resist.
“While I believe all threefinalists walked away win-
ners, I am so thrilled forKaren. For those who haven’thad a chance to try Lay’sCheesy Garlic Bread, you’rein for a treat,” she said.
After receiving nearly 3.8million consumer-generatedflavor submissions, a judgingpanel made up of chefs, food-ies and flavor experts, includ-ing Longoria and chef andrestaurateur Michael Symon,selected Lay’s Cheesy GarlicBread, Lay’s Chicken & Waf-fles and Lay’s Sriracha-fla-vored potato chips as contestfinalist flavors.
The three finalist flavorswere then fully developed byFrito-Lay’s culinary expertsand brought to store shelveslast February. From Feb. 12to May 4, more than 1 millionconsumer votes were cast viaFacebook, Twitter and bytext, which resulted inCheesy Garlic Bread beingnamed the winning flavor.
The two runner-up finalistflavors — Lay’s Chicken andWaffles and Lay’s Srirachaflavored chips will make anencore appearance on storeshelves this summer. Thewinning flavor — Lay’sCheesy Garlic Bread — willremain on store shelvesthrough 2013.
A week later, Weber-Mend-ham remains almost speech-less about winning $1 million.
“It’s just been the mostamazing experience, the mostamazing ride,” said Weber-Mendham, who works at theLand O’ Lakes library. “I’mstill kind of numb.”
Weber-Mendham saidthere are a few plans for themoney, including a collegeeducation and braces for herthree children, Kate, a sopho-more; Davey, an eighth-grad-er; and Joe, a sixth-grader.
“I might get a Rosey theRobot to do the cleaning and Imight get my husband, Phil,a new snowmobile,” she saidwith a laugh. “He blew theengine on his last winter. Ialso might get the fenderrepaired on my car.”
Weber-Mendham said sheknows Land O’ Lakes and theentire North Woods support-ed her in the contest.

VILAS COUNTY NEWS-REVIEW/THE THREE LAKES NEWS WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 2013 3A

A proposal for a publicworks committee that wouldcombine highway and publicproperty managementresponsibilities was dis-cussed by the Vilas CountyLegislative and JudicialCommittee last week, afterthe first draft that groupedup to six county functionswas rejected April 30.
Supervisor Jim Behling,who put forth the Aprilgrouping of public workscommittee functions,expressed disappointment inwhat happened after thatmeeting adjourned.
“We spent a lot of timeApril 30 and since that timesome committee chairmenhave been going around say-ing it won’t work,” Behlingcharged. “We need to get astronger commitment fromchairs and vice chairs.”
County Clerk Dave Alle-man, spokesman for thecourthouse administrativeteam, said he didn’t thinkland records and forestrywere a good fit for the newproposed committee, withland records more attuned tobe with zoning and surveying.
Alleman stressed most ofthe duties of a revised publicworks committee are in thecurrent county standingrules. He said feedback ofthose in opposition seemed tofocus on a concern about thelength of committee meetings.
“I’m telling them they con-trol the length of a meeting,”Alleman said.
The revised committeewould oversee all capital con-struction, improvements andremodeling to all countyhighways and facilitiesapproved by the countyboard. With the exception ofcounty forest and recreation-al lands, it will have respon-sibility for overall manage-ment of all county facilitiesand infrastructure.
The new committee wouldassign space in all county-owned and -leased buildingsand grounds, the purchase offacilities and infrastructure,and maintenance and repairof all county facilities.
The committee membersalso would create and reviewa county purchasing policyfor county supplies andequipment, and approve allprofessional services, con-sulting, purchasing and ven-dor contracts.
With the exception ofHighway Department fuelpurchases and outlaysapproved in annual countybudgets, purchases and leas-es in excess of $25,000 mustbe authorized by countyboard resolution.
Behling said some VilasCounty supervisors fearchange.
“Some time ago, I providedinformation on Wood andCalumet counties, their agen-das and minutes, and itshows their meeting timeswere not extended,” Behlingclaimed. “This is a case offear. All this resistance andlack of flexibility is fear ofchange and we paid dearlyfor a study and all of a sud-den that study is Mayer’s,Behling’s and Favorite’sstudy, and it’s not.
“I’m running out of ideashow to do it,” he continued. “Iworked for consensus anddon’t know where to go fromhere.”
Committee member GaryPeske said he wanted inputfrom more than just commit-tee chairpersons.
“I would like to see depart-ment heads involved in theseconsiderations. Get inputfrom them and get committeemembers’ views,” said Peske,who had objected to the firstproposal as being too much.“This reduction is good and isnot over the top for a publicworks committee.”
Alleman indicated he didnot want staff involved andthat he was being blamed forall of this.
“I’m already being criti-cized that I’m the driverbehind this,” Allemanclaimed. “The administrativeteam is on this and we didn’twant to blend departmentconsolidation with committeerestructuring. To add morevoices to the fray will sendthis down the toilet.
“Can you support these
two committees being togeth-er?” Alleman asked. “If not, Iwant to be relieved of this.”
Committee memberChuck Hayes also had anobservation.
“I’ve heard the villain is theclerk and the Schenk report,”Hayes said. “The person whosejob is to raise road blocksalways has the easier taskthan coming up with solutions.Doing this implies something’sbroke in the county.”
Behling agreed depart-ment head involvement isfine from an information per-spective, but said,“We’re cre-ating policy and it’s the coun-ty board and committee thatcreates policy.”
Part of that policy wouldbe a seven-person committeewith the five elected supervi-sors on the present HighwayCommittee until at least2014, plus two more peopleappointed by the countychairman.
County Finance DirectorJason Hilgar said the com-mittee was trying to createefficiency of services.
“The culture needs to bechanged and let’s handle thisstuff in-house,” Hilgar suggest-ed, with Peske repeating, “Atsome point they needed inputfrom department heads.”
Committee ChairmanChris Mayer said he was alsofrustrated at the lack of sup-port.
“It’s troubling to drive 80miles (round trip from Lac duFlambeau) to find out we’reback on square one,” Mayersaid. “We can take 20-pluscommittees and turn it into10. Legislative & Judicial,Finance, Ethics and Insur-ance, Library can be com-bined and we’ll deal with thisat our next Finance Commit-tee meeting. Services andefficiency will not drop.”
Mayer directed Hilgar tolook at how many other com-mittees Finance could con-sume for the next FinanceCommittee meeting May 15.
Hayes repeated his bot-tom line he expressed lastmonth, that it’s all about pro-viding services.
“This proposal is differentand we’re coming closertogether, but the litmus test iswhat services will be helped,hurt or no impact,” Hayessaid. “I want to know whatcan you not do that you aredoing today. I’ve heard super-visors say, ‘Although they vot-ed for the Schenk report, Iwas really against it.’ ”
Mayer responded efficien-cies should be looked at, butasked, “When will we letdepartment heads do theirjob and simply tell themthat’s their job?”
Behling reiterated, “We’reattempting to change (thecounty board culture).”
Hilgar said connectionswith departments had to bemade for the proposal to work.
“Most everyone will be OKwith it in theory until it comesto their department,” he pre-dicted. “Then they will tell uswhy it won’t work. If you try itand it doesn’t work, adjust it.I think communicationbetween department headsand employees will improve.”
“We’ve been our own worstenemy because we madedepartment heads that way,to come to their committeesto get approvals,” said Peske.
Behling said he wanted aresolution from the Highwayand Public Property commit-tees, and then send it to thecounty board for debate..

Mine: project could generate 300 jobsFROM PAGE 1Astreamlined the permittingprocess for mining in Wiscon-sin. GOP lawmakers say thelegislation will allow safemining and boost the econo-my of northern Wisconsin.
The Oldenburg plant inRhinelander was selected asthe signing location becausethe company is the maker ofheavy-duty mining equip-ment. Officials say the pro-posed northern Wisconsinmine would directly generate700 jobs, but would have atrickle-down effect on otherindustries such as Olden-burg.
“Wisconsin’s seal and thestate flag both depict miningin our great state,” said
Walker. “In light of our min-ing tradition, I’m thrilled tosign legislation into law pro-tecting environmental safe-guards, while providing cer-tainty to the mine permittingprocess.”
Gogebic Taconite is seek-ing a license to drill 13 holes,some to a depth of more than1,400 feet, on land in Ash-land and Iron counties. Therequest to conduct drillingwas expected, but the permit,if approved, would not autho-rize the company to startmining.
The possibility of miningis years away and would besubject to environmentalreviews and, most likely, law-suits from environmental
groups and Native Ameri-cans tribes.
While opponents say thereare too many wetlands nearthe proposed site in the Peno-kee/Gogebic deposit, backersof the mine say there are ade-quate environmental protec-tions and that regulators willnot grant mining permitsunless companies can showthey have adequate environ-mental plans in place.
The proposed mine site isin the Bad River watershedand upstream from the BadRiver Band of Lake SuperiorChippewa reservation. Thetribe has come out opposed tomining, and lawsuits appearlikely if a mining permit iseventually granted.
Gogebic Taconite, based in
Hurley and tied to a Florida-based company with signifi-cant coal mining operations,said it needed changes inWisconsin mining lawsbefore it undertook plans fora $1.5 billion open-pit ironore mine in the Badger State.
According to the compa-ny’s application, crews willdrill into bedrock and createa 2.36-inch diameter hole.Rock and water-table sam-ples will be taken.
The application is avail-able for viewing on theDNR’s new web page aboutthe project at dnr.wi.gov. Theagency also has created a listfor anyone interested inreceiving updates about theproject.

Communities nationwide to recognizelaw enforcement officers this week
With the start of highschool parties soon, the StatePatrol and other law enforce-ment agencies remind youngmotorists and their parentsabout Wisconsin’s absolutesobriety law for driversyounger than age 21.
The law simply means thatdrivers younger than 21 maynot consume any amount ofalcohol — not even a drop —and legally operate a motorvehicle.
Young drivers convicted ofviolating Wisconsin’s absolutesobriety law will have theirlicense suspended for three
months. They also will have to pay a
$389.50 citation and will havefour demerit points assessedon their license.
“At any age, alcohol, even insmall amounts, may impairthe mental and physical skillsneeded to drive safely, such asdecision-making, concentra-tion, coordination and reactiontime,” said Wisconsin StatePatrol Capt. Nicholas Waninkof the north central region.
Traffic crashes are theleading cause of death foryoung people in Wisconsin,according to Wanink.
Students reminded of sobriety law
A newly elected ThreeLakes Town Board met for thefirst time last week, acceptingnumerous resignations anddiscussing a potential townemail policy.
After hearing variousquarterly financial reportsfrom Town Clerk Sue Harris,the board began acceptingresignations.
Herb Stuckart, after serv-ing the Three Lakes FireDepartment for 20 years, ten-dered his resignation as firechief.
“I make a motion we acceptHerb Stuckart’s resignationwith sincere thanks for hisefforts and what he’s donewith the fire department, andwith great regret for his resig-nation, and we wish him thebest of luck in the future,” saidSupervisor Steve Garbowicz.
After being appointed bythe town board, Dave Kirbytook the oath of office as thenew fire chief of Three Lakes.
Other resignations includ-ed Roger Blocks from both theThree Lakes Municipal Air-port and the Cemetery Com-mittee; Paul Wussow from theairport; Mike Kwaterski fromthe Plan Commission; andDon Sidlowski from the PlanCommission and the Econom-ic Development Subcommit-tee.
The town board alsoappointed new plan commis-sioners Andrew Boers, JeffBoehm and Susan Kordula.Other commissioners continu-ing service include MikeMiller, Collette Sorgel and
Town Chairwoman StellaWestfall.
A new email policy propos-al aiming to improve thetown’s record keeping gener-ated some discussion at themeeting from board members.
The proposal stated gener-ally that town officials andemployees would be requiredto use the email addresstownofthreelakes.com whenconducting town businesselectronically, and that thoseemails — both sent andreceived — would be legallyowned by the town of ThreeLakes.
In the event that townbusiness takes place on a per-sonal email account, the offi-cial or employee would berequired to carbon copy thecorrespondence electronicallyto the town clerk for recordkeeping.
Emails typically would bekept for seven years, althoughsome could be deleted earlieror could be stored on externaldrives in the town vault indef-initely.
“Being able to managethem electronically, if that’show they’re received, wouldbe much easier to have every-thing with a townofthree-lakes.com email address,” saidHarris. “You don’t have to usean email program at all. Youcan still keep your notes longform.
“This is just a draft — justa start — to create an emailpolicy that everyone can livewith,” she said.
Westfall added that themeasure was drafted in aneffort to comply with openrecords laws and make thetown clerk’s job simpler.
While board membersappeared to favor the idea, nomotion was made at the meet-ing to adopt a new email poli-cy.
ATV strifeThree Lakes’ new all-ter-
rain vehicle (ATV) ordinanceallowing the machines to beoperated on all town roadscontinues to be a point of dis-sension between communitymembers.
Despite there being nodirect connection to theboard’s agenda that night, ahandful of Three Lakes resi-dents stood up in protest dur-ing the meeting’s public com-ment period.
Gary Laad of Reed Roadwas among those who signeda letter to the board request-ing that it consider revokingthe ordinance and reconsiderit for a time frame shorterthan 12 months.
“Some board members mayfeel that the board has bentover backward with regardsto Reed Road,” he said. “Well,92.5% of Reed Road residentsare adamantly opposed to thisordinance. We feel that thereshould be a sign that saysReed Road is not an ATVroute.
“That doesn’t disqualifypeople who live on Reed Roadwho are enthusiasts from rid-ing on the road to access theroute,” added Laad.
There also was talkbetween board members atthe meeting under the agendaitem regarding sub-commit-tees about potentially creat-ing a committee to deal withATV decisions.
“We have people who still
have major concerns with thisATV ordinance,” said West-fall. “This would be a situationwhere I’d like to see a commit-tee put together.
“We could get five peopletogether, and they could getinput from one another, learnfrom one another, and try tosee each other’s concerns.Then, when this ordinanceissue comes up again, we havesomething to go by.”
The main discussion onsub-committees was inregards to providing betterdirection to committee mem-bers and potentially dissolv-ing committees after theirduties have concluded.
In other action, the townboard:
— updated its cemeteryrules, regulations and feesheet;
— amended its operator’slicense application; and
— approved a sandwichboard at Three Lakes Hard-ware.

Styles of bicycle racks,locations to place them in thecommunity and where to pur-chase them were discussedby the Eagle River Plan Com-mission last week.
City Administrator JoeLaux provided informationon what the city Revitaliza-tion Committee recommend-ed for specific businesses, thestyle of the bike racks andcolors.
Laux said the “U” and“double U” designs can beused, but concerns wereraised over locations wherethey could be placed perma-nently or temporarily due tothe snow removal season.
He said a firm in Minneso-ta was available to build theracks, but also suggested alocal firm could constructthem.
“It would be a little lessexpensive (from the localcompany), but only two colorsto choose from,” said Laux.
Commission memberMary Horant said it gavebusinesses and the city someoptions.
“Businesses can orderfrom the Minnesota company,but those that are going to beplaced on city propertyshould be made locally,”
Horant said. “They (business-es) may not have had theknowledge a local firm coulddo this. I don’t believe busi-ness people in town wouldnot want them done locally. Ifeel strongly about this.”
Laux said Badger Truck-ing on Adams Road was thelocal firm.
Another design was onethat could be attached abovethe sidewalk, called a meterring and also could be madelocally.
Mayor Jeff Hyslop sug-gested the city might look atattaching these to the build-ings where meters were onceattached.
“It would be like goingback to the old days whenyou tied your horse to thebuilding,” said Horant.
Places suggested to locatebike racks would be off WallStreet, Riverview Park, Rail-road Depot, Silver Lakebeach, Farmers Market, andparking lot areas behindGlicks, NAPA and the Collinsbuilding, city hall (both frontand back), North Side Park,and T-Docks.
The Public Works depart-ment will work with Laux onspecific sites to try the meterrings.

Wisconsin Department ofNatural Resources (DNR) offi-cials say combination of peo-ple in the outdoors and fire forcooking lead to a threat ofmajor forest fires in areaswhere access is a problem.
Jamie R. Remme, DNRforester and ranger in EagleRiver, said the forests aretypically very dry this time ofyear.
“One careless action mayresult in a fire with thepotential of burning manyforested acres,” said Remme.“Small campfires and warm-ing fires are the only firesallowed during the daytime.All other fires require a burn-ing permit and are subject toDNR burning restrictions.”
Remme said annual burn-ing permits are free and canbe obtained at a local DNRoffice; from emergency firewardens found throughoutthe county; on the DNR web-
site; or by calling 1-888-WIS-BURN (1-888-947-2876).
The burning permit isvalid for the calendar yearand expires Dec. 31.
Remme said people shouldconsider the following pre-cautions before lighting acampfire or warming fire:
• Look for an area that isclear of live and dead vegeta-tion.
• Make sure that thereare no overhead fuels.
• Build the fire on baremineral soil and construct afire ring of rocks if possible.
• Clear all combustiblematerials in the area aroundthe fire ring
• Keep the fire as smallas possible.
Remme warned that firesmust be attended at alltimes.
“Have water and handtools available to fully extin-guish a fire,” he said.
Remme also suggestedthat people make sure thatall fires are completely out
following these steps: — Drown the fire with
water, making sure all mate-rials are doused completely;
— Stir materials and turnthem over, add more waterand stir again; and
— Feel all charred mate-rials including rocks, coalsand ashes to make sureeverything is cool.
“Turn rocks over to makesure there are no burningembers or roots burning,” saidRemme. “Follow these samesteps for charcoal briquettes.Do not just bury coals; theycan smolder, break out andstart a wildfire.”
In addition, Remme saysbe sure all matches are out,and grind out cigarettes,cigars and pipe tobacco.
“Grind out materials indirt; never grind into wood orstumps,” he said.
Remme said persons light-ing any fire are responsible forall damages and suppressioncosts if the fire escapes controland causes a forest fire.
A proposed general permitto streamline the permittingprocess for small recreationaldevelopment projects poten-tially impacting wetlandswill be the topic of a publicinformational hearing inMadison Thursday, May 16,according to state wetlandofficials.
The informational hearingis slated for 1 p.m. in RoomG09 of the State NaturalResources Building, alsoknown as GEF 2, located at101 S. Webster St. in Madi-son.
The proposed general per-mit is the fourth of its kindrequired under a law passedin July 2012 by state law-makers.
It would enable peoplewho have a recreationaldevelopment project result-ing in the unavoidable fillingof just less than one-quarterof an acre — or 10,000 squarefeet — to get their decisionmore quickly if they meet thestandards and conditions setforth in the general permit.
Recreational trails andfields are examples of thekinds of small developmentprojects.
Right now, all landownerspursuing projects that could
potentially impact wetlandsmust seek an individual per-mit and lengthier environ-mental review if a generalpermit is not available.
“This proposed generalpermit will simplify the per-mit process for small projectsand will benefit larger pro-jects that are able to avoidand minimize wetlandimpacts so they can qualifyfor this general permit,” saidDepartment of NaturalResources (DNR) Waterwayand Wetland Policy coordina-tor Cami Peterson.
The proposed general per-mit would set forth the con-struction standards and oth-er conditions a project mustmeet to avoid or minimizedamage to wetlands andwould require the DNR tomake a decision on the per-mit within 30 days.
Projects that could poten-tially disturb more than10,000 square feet would notbe eligible for the generalpermit, but would continue toneed the individual permit,which has a longer reviewtime and is more expensive.
Information about theDNR individual and generalwetland permit process canbe found online at dnr.wi.govby searching wetland regula-tory programs.
To view a copy of the pro-posed statewide general per-mit and environmental deci-sion document, search forwetland disturbance.

OUTDOORSTurkey hunt went from bust to boom!
THE TURKEY hunt went frombust to boom in a hurry earlierthis month, literally, just after thescribbler penned a column aboutthe late spring and the lack of gob-bling activity in the turkey woods.
It was a whirlwind trip to cen-tral Wisconsin’s farm country nearMarion, as I didn’t plan to be gonemore than 24 hours. The chanceat extra tags and a chance to huntproperty owned by old classmatesand good friends is an opportunitythat’s hard to pass up.
The drive came in time for anevening hunt on my third-weektag. For the first time since theseason structure was changed froma Sunday to a Tuesday ending, Iwould have a chance at a double.
I was back on the Dave Egdorffarm in Caroline before 6 p.m.,and he was plowing a corn fieldnear the house and barn whenmy truck pulled into the yard. Ihurried toward the nearby woods.
The decoys were placed inpicked corn and the tree thatwould help conceal me was select-ed based on what I had learned theprevious weekend. But the patternchanged and that was a bust.
Five toms and three hensemerged some 150 yards away, fil-tering into the picked corn. Theypretty much made a direct marchto the fresh-plowed strip some350 yards away, right up by thehouse and barn. I think they werein shotgun range of my truck.
They fed for an hour and wereworking down the plowed strip in
my direction when it came time tohead for the roost. I was hopingfor a loop in my direction, butthat didn’t happen.
Before the last tom got evenwith my position on the retreat, itwas time to pull out all the stops.Soft, seductive calls weren’t get-ting its attention. I threw everycall at that bird at the highestvolume possible for the slate call.
And it turned.Suddenly I had a tom headed in
my direction. Its beard was slap-ping off its chest. The gobbler heldup short of my decoys and wastotally silent. It never fanned. Butcuriosity got the best of it.
I dropped that bird at 50yards, a range that isn’t usuallyrecommended by the experts. Ittakes a great setup and somegood gun patterning to pull off aclean kill at that distance.
I was elated. The toms on theEgdorf farm had kicked my button two mornings the previousweek. Not this time. And mychance for that first double onturkeys was still alive.
The alarm went off at 3:50a.m. Wednesday, the start of the
fourth week of the six-week sea-son. This time I was headed to an80-acre property owned by DougMalueg, a high wooded ridgesouth of town that is smack dabin the heart of farm country.
There would be no complaintsabout a lack of gobbling on thismorning. Every time a henyelped, a crow called or the sand-hill cranes let loose, there weremultiple gobbles from the ridgeabove me. It was a big group.
And it got better because thehens got extremely loud, followedby the rush of wings and somebody-banging noises as two tomstook to fighting. They were so noisyin fact that a distant tom startedgobbling — and unbeknownst tome, it wanted part of the action.
Several minutes later, thescribbler, frustrated by the biggroup’s stationary position, dis-cerned the gobbles behind mewere getting louder. I decided toturn, and just in time. Along camea gobbler, fanning from time totime. I tipped it over with a loadof copper-plated 5’s.
That would be the end of thehunt for most, but the clock read6:08 a.m. when I got back to thetruck. So I returned, with cameraand decoys in hand, trying onceagain for the full-strut photos thathave alluded me for a decade.
And wouldn’t you know it,about two hours later, a majestictom, bigger than anything I hadshot with a gun, came marchinginto my little clearing. He showed
up alone, unannounced, and puton the show of the year for 25minutes.
He fanned, strutted, puffed,drummed and did otherthings I’m not sure how tolabel. He nailed my tom decoywith his beak and chest sever-al times and finally knocked itright off the stake.
Last week’s front page photogives you an idea of how big it wasand how good the photo opportuni-ty became. So does the photo inthis space. I certainly had savedthe best for last on this hunt.
There is something very excit-ing about hunting and ultimatelyshooting a wild turkey that you’vecalled into range. But those huntsdon’t carry the rewards and theincredible memories you get froman encounter with camera in hand.
The hunt with a gun oftenends long before the struttingshow heats up. But with a camera,you get to see the entire perfor-mance. This tom wanted nothingto do with the disabled decoy, but Istill called him back into photorange for some more strutting. He
wanted that hen in the worst way.My final turkey hunt of the
spring came on the followingWednesday, during the fifth week.It was one more whirlwind trip toMarion, and the turkey woodswere absolutely alive with noise. Irationalized this trip as absolute-ly necessary, just to see my par-ents who returned from Texasand to give Mom a flower basketand card for Mother’s Day.
After passing on four jakes anda small tom that was intimidatedby my decoy, I bagged my thirdgobbler of the year at 10:08 a.m.
I called him in from across the80 acres, the process taking morethan 45 minutes. He came in atfull strut but I heard his hum-likedrumming long before I saw him.This one weighed 21 pounds.
What memories. Two toms tak-en in an 11-hour period. My firsttrifecta on gobblers. But none ofthat tops the photos and the showthat big tom put on.
More than I deserve. Some-body is looking out for me.Time to count the blessingsfrom one grand turkey season.

The North Woods was again faced with cold weath-er right through last weekend, which kept the numberof fishermen down.
But warm weather forecast for this week will helpall anglers as they are still trying to find some strongspring patterns for walleyes.
Lake levels are much better this year with all therain and snow we have had, but the water tempera-tures are still pretty cold out there. They were at bestin the low to mid-40s through the weekend.
The predicted warmer weather this week will begreat for all our spawning fish (perch and walleyes)and for the crappies, which at this point are pre-spawn. Much to our surprise, there is some greenweed growth on many lakes.
Walleyes appear to be very confused by the latespring and its seems that many walleyes came up andspawned nearly under the ice. The spawn is not ascompressed as usual, with anglers catching both pre-spawn and post-spawn fish in the same lakes. Thislack of a strong pattern also applies to the WisconsinRiver. Jigs and minnows are the most successful baitas always at this time of year, but we have hadanglers reporting success on leeches already. Largefatheads are working best.
Northern action has been good. These fish are ear-ly spawners and have finished spawning and put on thefeed bag. Minnows work very well at this time of year,and many are caught accidentally by walleye fishermen.Work the emergent weeds wherever you can find them.
Bass action has been limited as it is way early forthem. It will be interesting to see if they have a normalspawn because of the late year and cold water temper-atures go. Last year, they were up and spawning bythis time, but we had an unusually warm spring.
Perch action has been pretty good so far, withmany still hanging near the shorelines in cover. Min-nows or worms seem to be working about the samethis year. Not too much has been seen as far asbluegills, and the crappies have yet to come into theshallows. Warm weather will help the panfishing.
The predicted warmer weather will bring a lot ofactivity this week as the water temperatures warm up.
Good luck and good fishin’.

This past winter, hun-dreds of volunteers helpedstate wildlife researchers incapturing and placing radiocollars on yearling and adultdeer. Now researchers wouldlike help locating and radio-collaring newborn fawns dur-ing May and June.
“Most fawns are born dur-ing the last week of May andfirst week of June, which is ashort time frame to meet ourgoal of getting radio collarson 80 fawns,” said JaredDuquette, Department ofNatural Resources (DNR)ungulate research ecologist.
“Mother deer do not makeour job easy,” said Duquette.“They typically hide theirfawns in thick vegetation or inexpansive grassy fields wherethe fawns are naturally cam-ouflaged and remain motion-less. We have to do a lot ofwalking to find them and relyon strength in numbers withour volunteers. It’s a lot of funto find these little guys, andhelps us get key informationon fawn survival.”
Volunteers will beassigned to search teamsworking in the vicinity ofShiocton in Shawano Countyand Winter in Sawyer Coun-ty. Each day, teams will combtargeted fawning areas, onfoot, for a few hours to findthe hidden newborns.
Once found, fawns are fit-ted with expandable radio col-lars to monitor their move-ments and survival duringtheir first year of life to assesscauses of death, which caninclude malnutrition, environ-mental influences, vehicles,hunters or predators. If a fawndies, the collar will emit aunique signal that researchersuse to locate the animal toevaluate cause of death. Thecollars are designed to expandas the deer grows and eventu-
ally drop off as the animalreaches its first birthday.
Duquette said during2011 and 2012, a total of 212fawns were captured, includ-ing 144 (94 radio collared, 50ear-tagged) in the Shioctonarea and 68 (60 radio col-lared, eight ear-tagged) inthe Winter area.
Even those who don’t jointhe fawn search can getinvolved in the predation and
fawn recruitment study.“Fawns are often harder to
find in the northern studyarea, due to lower deer densi-ty and greater expanses ofwoods. We’d appreciate if citi-zens could notify us if theysee a fawn in the study areaso we can meet our researchgoal,” said Duquette.
Anyone observing a fawnwithin a 10-mile radius of thetown of Winter during May
and June should contactresearchers at (608) 219-0771.

The Ice Age NationalScenic Trail attracts an esti-mated 1.2 million visitorsevery year and trail userscontribute approximately$113 million annually to Wis-consin’s economy, accordingto surveys conducted lastyear of trail users and busi-nesses along the trail.
The Ice Age Trail, one ofonly 11 National ScenicTrails in the United States, isa 1,000-mile footpath high-lighting Wisconsin’s glacialgeology and scenic beauty.
“This study highlights theimportance of outdoor recre-ation to Wisconsin’s economyand the value of protectingand managing our naturalresources,” said BrigitBrown, state trails coordina-tor for the Department ofNatural Resources (DNR).
The Ice Age Trail isadministered through a part-
nership involving the Nation-al Park Service, the DNR andthe Ice Age Trail Alliance, astatewide nonprofit groupthat first advanced the con-cept of the Ice Age Trail inthe 1950s.
According to Brown, thetrail has been developedthrough a mosaic of partners,including private donors,landowners, businesses, non-profit organizations and city,county, state and othermunicipal governments. Thetrail itself is built and main-
tained largely by volunteerscoordinated by the alliance.Last year, more than 2,100volunteers contributed near-ly 70,000 hours of time to thetrail.
Currently, there are about640 miles of the Ice Age Trailopen to the public for activi-ties such as hiking, backpack-ing and snowshoeing. Landacquisition and trail construc-tion are ongoing to completethe entire 1,200-mile routecarved out by glaciers morethan 10,000 years ago.

At the end of this three-year effort to monitor fawns,researchers hope to fine-tunetheir population estimatesbased on the real-world datacollected.
“Estimating fawn survivalrate is vital to the accuracy ofour deer population esti-mates,” said Duquette. “Thisstudy can also tell us aboutthe impact predators arehaving, whether it’s blackbears, bobcats, coyotes orgray wolves.”
Preliminary results fromthe study in 2011 and 2012showed that most fawn mor-talities had occurred by theend of August, mostly frompredation. Fawn survival, upto 9-10 months old, was 62%in the Shiocton area com-pared to 35% in the Winterarea, though fawns in bothareas had better survival in2012 than in 2011.
Fawn predation rateshave been less in the east-central study area, 41%, com-pared to 62% in the northernstudy area, which Duquettesaid may be due to thegreater diversity of predatorsfound in the north. Othersources of mortality includedvehicle collisions, starvationand hunters.
“Predators have had thebiggest impact on survival sofar, but we know predationrates can change with under-lying environmental influ-ences, like a harsh winter,that make it harder for fawnsto survive. So we’re trying tolook at how all these factorsinteract,” says Duquette.

JOURNEYS
The 17th annual JourneysMarathon saw two repeatwinners in the 26.2-mile raceSaturday, as Matt Radtke ofMerrill won the overall eventand Laura Gould of StevensPoint took first in the femaledivision for the second yearstraight.
The race started just westof Star Lake and ended atRiverview Park in Eagle Riv-er.
Radtke, who won at Jour-neys last year and took sec-ond in 2010, ran themarathon in 2 hours, 48 min-utes and 33 seconds.
For the females, it wasGould crossing the finish linefirst in 3:19.27.
The 41-year-old Radtkesaid this was his fifth timerunning in Journeys.
“The weather this yearwas a lot better than lastyear for running; last yearwas kind of hot,” he said. “Ididn’t hit my goal time, butI’m happy. I’ll be back nextyear.”
Michael James, 42, ofKaukauna finished second in2:49:35, while ThaddeusPeterson of La Crosse camein third with a time of3:00:21.
Gould, who is 29, agreedthat the cooler weather suit-ed running.
“It was a little windy insome parts, but it was betterthan 70 degrees,” she said.“For some reason I don’tremember the course beingthis hilly. Coming fromBoston, it was a big adjust-ment, but I don’t mind thehills.”
She added that her fami-ly had three generations ofrunners at Journeys, as hermother ran the halfmarathon and her daughterran the 5-kilometer (5K).
Gould said she knew shewas in the lead during therace.
“You can hear peoplewhispering about it as yourun past,” she said.
Taking second for thewomen was Sarena Kruegerof Portage, who finished therace in 3:25:56. JanetGlodowski of Stevens Pointtook third in 3:29:51.
The month of May oftenpresents runners with unpre-dictable weather, but com-petitors were happy in thechilly 43 degrees, even ifsome of the spectatorsweren’t.
Kim Emerson, eventscoordinator of the Eagle Riv-er Chamber of Commerce &Visitors Center, said an all-time record of 1028 competi-tors registered for themarathon, half-marathon
and 5K events. The pastrecord of 1027 was set in2010.
Participants this year rep-resented 16 different U.S.states plus a runner fromSydney, Australia.
Aaron Foote of NiagaraFalls, N.Y., holds the courserecord for the marathon setin 2011 with a time of2:37:49. Debbie Thuecksholds the female record of3:03:50 set in 1998.
The best local marathonfinish for the men went toMatthew Rowe ofRhinelander, who placed 21stoverall in 3:38:29.
The best local finish forthe women came from DianaRickert of Rhinelander, whocame in 43rd overall with atime of 3:55:43.
New half winnerJeff Quednow, 21, of West-
boro took first place in thehalf marathon with a time of1:17:45. He took third placein the same event last year.
Long-time Journeys run-ner Steve Frericks of Marsh-field, who had a stretch of sixwins from 2005 to 2011, fin-ished second in 1:19:34. Tak-ing third was Brian Beckmanof Ashland in 1:23:33.
“It was perfect weather,the wind was to our backsmost of the way,” said Qued-now. “This is my second yearrunning the course. I likethat it’s flat and it’s a nicescenic course. It was really agreat race.”
For the women, it was Jen-na Southworth of Marshfieldcoming in first with a time of1:28:04.
“The route was prettyshaded by trees, whichhelped block some of thewind,” said Southworth, whowas running at Journeys forthe first time. “The condi-tions were perfect, actually.
“I heard this was a goodone, so I thought I’d try itout,” she said. It was a nicerace to start off the runningsummer.”
Second place for the wom-en went to Sara Trevillian ofIron Mountain, Mich. whofinished in 1:33:30. Takingthird was Lara Eslinger ofWoodruff in 1:38:30.
There were 403 finishersin the 13.1-mile half-marathon event. The half-marathon record of 1:11.55was established in 1999 byMahdi Oman.
The top local finishers oth-er than Eslinger in the half-marathon included John Rot-tier of Eagle River, whoplaced 24th overall with atime of 1:39:28 and JamonLamers of Woodruff, who took

The 17th annual Jour-neys Marathon, sponsoredby the Eagle River AreaChamber of Commerce &Visitors Center last Satur-day, featured many inspi-rational stories of runnersof all ages.
Some runners complet-ed their first marathonwhile others establishedpersonal goals for the timeit took them to completethe 26.2-mile course fromnear Boulder Junction toEagle River.
The race also includeda runner from Sydney,Australia, who is attempt-ing to break a currentGuinness World Record.
Trent Morrow, knownas “The Marathon Man,” is a 40-year-old runnerembarking on the challenge of a lifetime by attemptingto claim the Guinness World Record for the “MostMarathons Run in a Calendar Year.” He is hoping tocompete in 160 or more official marathons in the calen-dar year ending Dec. 31, 2013. He ran in the JourneysMarathon last Saturday, finishing in 94th place in fourhours, 46 minutes and five seconds.
The currently recognized Guinness World record is114 marathons and was set on Dec. 31, 2011. A subse-quent claim for the record has been made for a total of157 marathons in the calendar year ending December2012. This new claim is yet to be assessed by the Guin-ness Organization.
Marathon Man said his vision is to compete in 160 ormore official marathons this year. He officially startedJan. 1 in Houston, Texas, and plans to end his feat Dec.13 in Jackson, Miss. He said all events will be official26.2-mile marathons. During his quest, Morrow said hewill run marathons in more than 20 countries in 2013and he will run a minimum average of three marathonsper week.
Marathon Man has already run in 43 marathons in2013, including a stretch of marathons 12 days in a rowwithin California during March. Prior to racing in EagleRiver, he raced last Friday in Cincinnati, Ohio.
In Eagle River, the Marathon Man helped anotherrunner accomplish quite a feat, as he ran much of therace and finished with 13-year-old Jacob Odrzywolski ofWauwatosa, who completed his first marathon.

The Northland Pines girlssoccer team won two out offive games last week andsplit two one-goal games inthe Great Northern Confer-ence (GNC).
The Eagles opened theweek with a 2-1 victory overLakeland in the GNC lastTuesday.
Pines got on the boardfirst when Paige Healyscored off a nice cross fromMolly Robinson.
“Healy was at the rightplace at the right time and fin-ished well,” said Pines coachWendy McCormack. “We did agood job passing the ballaround and maintaining goodfield positioning throughoutthe first half. Our transitionfrom the midfield to theattacking third im proved fromour previous games.
The second half startedout strong for Pines as cap-tain Lauren Lenz took theball to the net, easily gettingthe ball past Lakeland goal-keeper Natalie Jonas at the4:30-minute mark into thehalf.
“Lakeland really put thepressure on and instead ofpossessing the ball, we beganto react and kick the ballinstead of passing with a pur-pose. The game got more andmore physical and thiscaused us to get sloppy withour play,” said McCormack.
Lakeland got some goodtouches on the ball and final-ly found the back of the netlater in the second half, butPines held on for the 2-1 vic-tory.
The Eagles traveled toMedford on a cold, rainyafternoon and Thursday,play ing on a very wet fieldlittered with ankle-deepwater in the low spots.
The Raiders got on theboard midway through thefirst half with a breakawayrun and a nice finishing shotwith the ball getting pastEagles’ keeper Allyson Sima.
“It was just out of Sima’sreach, getting Medford thegoal,” said McCormack.“Medford has a lot of speedon their offense and they uti-lize the kick and chase phi-losophy which appears towork for them. We have someinjuries on our defense, so weare not 100% to defend thattype of attack.”
Pines struggled to get pastMedford’s defense, whichstacked five players acrossthe back.
“It was tough to get theball past all the defendersand when we tried to get theball over them, it ended upgoing to the goalkeeper,” saidMcCormack. “SophomoreEmi ly Saltenberger hadsome good opportunities andgot the ball down to Med-ford’s box, but we just could-n’t finish and find the back ofthe net. The rain and fieldconditions made the ballharder to move around.”
Lenz had a breakawaymidway through the secondhalf, but the ball stopped in awater puddle as she wasdribbling toward the goal andthe defense was able to catchup to defend on the play.
“We didn’t seem to get ourgame together until partwaythrough the second half, butby then we were down a goaland couldn’t get enough of anattack to make a difference,”said McCormack.
The Eagles also playedthree games in the Waupacatournament Saturday, losingto Marinette 2-0, beatingThree Lakes 2-1 and falling
to Marshfield 3-0.“It’s nice to play teams we
don’t normally see and ithelps when going into theplayoffs,” said McCormack.
In game one, Marinettescored early in the first half.
“We passed the ballaround and possessed it well,but didn’t attack it (the ball)when we turned it over to theother team,” said the coach.“Marinette capitalized onthis and put the ball in theback of the net.”
Sima had five saves in thegame and Pines had six shotson Marinette’s net in theevenly matched game.
In game two, Three Lakesstarted out the game on topby scoring early.
“They brought the balldown the field and pulledkeeper Sima to the near postand placed the ball to the farpost and into the net,” saidMcCormack.
Pines’ outside midfielderCarly Ridderbusch answereda short time later, getting arebound shot from KailynHogenmiller. Robinson gotthe winning goal in the gameoff a cross from Ridderbusch.
The Eagles went in adefensive mode in the secondhalf, but was still able to putpressure on Three Lakes.
The third game of the daysaw a thin Pines lineupagainst Marshfield as manyplayers were nursing in juries.
“The wind was also a bigfactor throughout the day,but seemed to pick up at theend of the day,” said McCor-mack. “Marshfield put thepressure on right from thefirst whistle. They controlledthe game and really playedsmart. We struggled to main-tain any type of possession inthe game, but did have some
good moments of pressure ontheir defense. We worked onpassing and making diagonalruns to mix up the opponentsand I think we made somegood connections with it.However, we could not finishthem.”
Marshfield found the backof the net three times, onceon a rebound shot off Simaand another with a high shotthat hit the upper cornerwhich was out of Sima’sreach. Sima tallied 10 savesin the game.
“While we didn’t have asbig of an attack as they did,we managed to get sevenshots on them, but none ofthem quality shots,” saidMcCormack.
The Eagles, 5-5 overalland 1-2 in the GNC, will trav-el to Wausau Newman thisThursday, May 16, for a 5p.m. contest. Next Tuesday,May 21, the Eagles will hostMosinee, also at 5 p.m.

The Northland Pines HighSchool girls track team tookthird place at the HatchetInvite last Tuesday, defeatingRhinelander, Hurley, Lady-smith and Mercer.
Tomahawk won the meetand Mosinee took secondplace.
“Tomahawk and Mosineeboth have great teams thatedged us out but overall weare pleased to take third outof seven teams,” said Eaglescoach Josh Rhode.
Samantha Goll and EmilyRobins stole the show, accord-ing Rhode.
Goll was first in the 100-meter dash with a time of13.12, first in the 300-meterhurdles in 50.83, second inthe 200-meter dash in 27.04,and second in the pole vaultwith a leap of 8 feet, 6 inches.
“Sam is so valuable to thisteam because she has theability to score points in anyevent we put her in,” saidRhode. “The senior captain
scored 36 points for her teamand she continues to get bet-ter each week. If she can con-tinue improving, she willhave a great chance to makethe State meet in Lacrosse.
Robins was also very busyin the meet, winning the3,200-meter run in 12:02 andfinishing second in the 400-meter dash in 1:04.95.
“Along the way to her first-place finish, she broke herown school record in the3,200-meter run,” said Rhode.“She is also having her bestseason and has establishedherself as one of the top dis-tance runners in the state.”
“Brooke Dreger, MariaWait and Heidi Olson also hadnotable performances in theirrespective events,” saidRhode. “All three girls settheir personal records in theirevents which is all a coach canask for every meet.”

The Three Lakes Bluejaysnearly solidified a No. 1 seedfor the WIAA Regional play-offs in baseball after threeNorthern Lakes Conference(NLC) wins last week.
The team started Mondaywith a 20-9 win over WhiteLake, before defeating Elcho14-8 Tuesday and Goodman-Pembine 6-3 Thursday.
The Jays scored six in thetop of the first against WhiteLake to take an early lead.After two innings, ThreeLakes was up 12-2 and neverlooked back.
“We were able to get someof our younger players in thegame, which was very nicesince all of our junior varsitygames have been bumped formakeup varsity games,” saidcoach Jeff Liebscher.
Matt Wilkowski pitchedwell in his first-ever start onthe mound. He struck out 10Lakers batters and onlywalked four.
“We have struggled to getthis type of pitching, and itwas one of the keys to the vic-tory,” said the coach.
Mike LaGalbo led the Jaysat the plate going 4-5 with adouble and triple and twoRBIs. Hunter Matheson was3-5 with a triple and threeRBIs.
Riley Liebscher, DaltonTietsort and Jimmy Houg alladded multiple-hit gameswith Liebscher and Tietsortboth hitting triples.
“We also ran the baseswell, stealing a total of 20bases,” said the coach.
Liebscher and BrentLaDuke stole four apiece.
Three Lakes’ bats cameout hot again against theElcho Hornets the followingnight.
After two and one-halfinnings, the Jays were up 11-1. However, some mistakesand walks allowed Elcho tomount a comeback.
Liebscher came in to pitchin relief at the bottom of thesixth with no outs and basesloaded. Two strikeouts andan out at the plate later, andthe threat was over.
“Dalton Tietsort made agreat throw from center andBrent LaDuke made a greattag at the plate,” said coachLiebscher. “It was great to seethe guys turn around theinning like that.”
In the top of the seventh,the Jays added two moreruns and Liebscher struckout the side to end the game.Liebscher also led the Blue-jays’ offense, going 4-5 with adouble and triple.
Anthony Briggs was 3-3,Hunter Matheson was 3-5and Matt Wilkowski was 2-4
with a walk.Although Goodman-Pem-
bine has had Three Lakes’number for the past fewyears, the Jays performedwell in tough weather condi-tions.
Three Lakes was up 1-0after two innings, but a melt-down on one play gave thePatriots three runs for thelead.
“We had two of their run-ners hung up,” said coachLiebscher. “They basicallygift-wrapped at least one outfor us, but we made somepoor decisions and they werefollowed up by errors and itblew up on us.”
Despite the errors, theJays dug in and battled back,tying the game in the fourthand taking a two-run lead inthe fifth. They even added aninsurance run in the sixthinning.
Wilkowski put together asolid pitching performance,striking out seven and givingup only two hits and threewalks over seven innings.
“Matt isn’t trying to doeverything himself,” saidLiebscher. “He’s just makingthem win with their bats.This outing would have beenimpressive in nice weather,but doing it in the rain, windand cold made it very spe-cial.”
Emerson Hegemen madenumerous plays in the gameand had some nice scoops outof the mud to help the Jays tovictory, according to thecoach.
The Bluejays’ bats wereled by Liebscher and HunterMathison, who were both 2-3with a double.
The Jays were scheduledto play Laona-Wabeno Fri-day, but the game was can-celed due to field conditions.
Crandon is still undefeat-ed in conference, while ThreeLakes, Florence and Laona-Wabeno each have one loss.
“If we could have playedLaona-Wabeno on Fridayand won, we would havepretty much cemented a No.1 seed in the Regional,” saidLiebscher. Without thatgame, we could fall to the No.2 seed.”
The Bluejays were sched-uled to travel to Florence foran NLC game Tuesday, May14. In other upcoming NLCgames, they will face Laona-Wabeno Thursday, May 16, at5 p.m. before taking on ElchoSaturday, May 18, at 12:30p.m.
The Jays will take onNorthland Pines next Mon-day, May 20, at 4 p.m. inEagle River.

Three Lakes took an earlylead against Iron Mountain,when Kacey Runningstepped in front of a shortgoal kick and put one in thenet.
“I was really pleased withthis effort,” said the coach.“We talk all the time abouthow important it is to be thefirst to the ball, and to win50/50 balls. This is a perfectexample of why we work onthat.”
Iron Mountain evened thescore late in the second half,forcing the game into over-time.
Six minutes into overtime,the Lady Jays ended thegame off a perfectly executedcross from Hoger to animpressive diving header byKacey Running.

shoot both teams and createa lot of opportunities.
“As the weather improvesand we can continue to beoutside, we will have morepractice opportunities towork on our shooting and fin-ishing, so I expect that toimprove as well,” she said.

WHEN THE TIME comesfor you to leave this Earth,how will you want to beremembered? I have readseveral answers to this ques-tion. Here is what Julie John-son of Lapeer, Mich., said inthe mid 1980s.
“The day will come when Idie. At a certain moment adoctor will determine that mybrain has ceased to functionand that, for all intents andpurposes, my life has stopped.
“When that happens, donot attempt to install artifi-cial life into my body by theuse of a machine.
“Don’t call this my denial.Let it be called the Bed ofLife. Let my body be takenfrom it to help others leadfuller lives.
“Give my sight to the manwho has never seen a sunrise,a baby’s face or love in theeyes of a woman.
“Give my heart to a personwhose own heart has causednothing but endless days ofpain.
“Give my blood to theteenager who was pulledfrom the wreckage of his car,so that he might live to seehis grandchildren play.
“Give my kidneys to onewho depends on a machine toexist from week to week.
“Take my bones, everymuscle, every fiber and nervein my body and find a way tomake a crippled child walk.
“Explore every corner ofmy brain. Take my cells, ifnecessary. Let them grow, sothat someday a speechlesschild will shout at the crack
of a bat, and a deaf child willhear the sound of rainagainst her window.
“Burn what is left of meand scatter the ashes to thewind to help the flowers grow.
“If you must bury some-thing, let it be my faults, myweaknesses and all prejudiceagainst my fellow man.
“Give my sins to the devil.Give my soul to God. If bychance you wish to rememberme, do it with a kind deed orword to someone who needsyou. If you do all I haveasked, I will live forever.”
* * *I ONCE knew a man who
insisted that his domineeringwife see a psychiatrist. To hissurprise, she consented.When she emerged after anhour-long session, he asked,“Did you make any progress?”
“Not much,” she replied.“It took me 50 minutes toconvince him that the couchwould look better against thewall.”
* * *IT’S GRADUATION sea-
son for hundreds of thou-sands of high school and col-lege students. Here are somethought-provoking words ofwisdom that have been hand-
ed down generation to gener-ation.
For every hour of anger,you waste 60 minutes of hap-piness.
We are continually facedby great opportunities bril-liantly disguised as insolvableproblems.
The only thing heavierthan carrying a chip on ourshoulder is carrying a grudgein our heart.
Making poor excusesmakes us weak; makingtough decisions makes usstrong.
Positive thinking is theonly way to produce positiveresults.
Make it your mission inlife to create jobs throughinnovation, not the elimina-tion of jobs. Remember, if peo-ple aren’t working and mak-ing a living wage, they won’tbe able to buy products andsupport their families.
When you get into deepwater, keep your mouth shut.
Confidence is the feelingyou have when you know bet-ter.
A conscience, like abuzzing bee, can make a fel-low uneasy without everstinging him. Conscience iswhat hurts when everythingelse feels so good.
Too many folks follow thepath of least assistance.
You cannot meet troublehalfway. It travels fasterthan you can.
Anybody who thinks mon-ey grows on trees is bound,sooner or later, to get caughtout on a limb.
Prosperity is that wonder-ful time when you canalways get enough credit tolive beyond your means.
Two ways to get rich:spend less than you make ormake more than you spend.
In the old days, the manwho saved money was amiser. Today he’s a wonder.
One way to keep from los-ing your shirt is to keep yoursleeves rolled up.
Reputation is the otherfellow’s idea of your charac-ter.
Nothing causes the fatherof a teenage girl to lose moresleep than the memory of hisyouth.
If you want a place in thesun, you must expect someblisters.
It’s never too late to mend,because the older we become,the more repairs we need.
The girl who searches toolong for a smart cookie is aptto wind up with a crumb.
The honeymoon is overwhen he stops helping herwith the dishes — and doesthem himself.
And last, remember thatSocrates was a Greekphilosopher who went aroundgiving good advice.
As a result, they poisonedhim.
How will you be remembered?
IN LIFE YOU meet slow-pokes and speedsters,dawdlers and racehorses, tor-toises and hares.
Last week I met a hare,perhaps the fastest one onearth, and as was the case inthe old fable it did not endwell for the hare. The intro-ductions were rather lengthy,taking a good 45 minutes tocomplete, but once completedour relationship was cement-ed in a matter of just two orthree minutes.
Unfortunately, or fortu-nately, depending on whosepoint of view you look at, ourrelationship ended abruptlyat the conclusion of those twoor three minutes.
I must say I am pleasedthat it ended quite happilyand most satisfactorily forme, not so well for my new —and now deceased — friend,Tom.
Our brief encounter, filledwith sordid passion, vows ofeverlasting bliss and love talkbeyond belief, ended with abang, as in the bang of a 12-gauge shotgun loaded withtwo ounces of No. 4 shot.
For the second time this
spring, the first time was inKentucky, a turkey hunt end-ed in joy for me and a place ofhonor on my dinner table fora gullible gobbler.
The gobbler in questionlast week may or may nothave been the brightest bulbon the tree, but unfortunatelyfor him, though the lessonwas well taught, he will notget any smarter or haveanother chance to use hisnewfound wisdom.
The opening day of myWisconsin turkey seasonbegan with a 10-minute walkalong a logging road to aplace where last year I camewithin a whisker of killingmy first Vilas County turkey,only to be thwarted at thelast second by a freak hap-penstance.
By the way, I should insert
here that never in my wildestdreams 30-some years agowhen I killed my very firstgobbler in Missouri, did Iimagine I would ever be ableto hunt turkeys in Wisconsin,much less my home territoryhere in northern Wisconsin.
At that time there were noturkeys anywhere in Wiscon-sin, and attempts to stockthem in southern Wisconsinwith pen-raised turkeysturned out to be a dismal fail-ure.
Now, using some of thosesame Missouri birds I huntedback then, obtained inexchange for Wisconsin ruffedgrouse, turkeys are not onlycommon in Wisconsin, but areso plentiful we enjoy some ofthe highest harvest totals ofany state in the country.
That said, I was not think-ing about what was, what isor any other kind of statisticwhen I began my walk open-ing morning.
I was simply hoping to runinto one gobbler that waseither dumber or unluckierthan me, not as simple a task
The hare loses again
The xenophobes find new targets
THE BOSTON Marathonbombing has brought outthe xenophobes.
Often when America suf-fers some large, inexplicabletragedy, we want to blameforeigners and look for waysto fortify ourselves againstthem. It’s more reassuringto believe that an evil liesoutside our borders — inthem — than to face thepossibility that it’s random-ly among us.
And like the communistscare before it, the so-calledwar on terror — a war with-out end — offers a conve-nient means of targeting thesource as a foreign menacebent on destroying us.
Let’s blame immigrants,say the xenophobes. Sen.Rand Paul (R-Ky.) is urgingSenate Majority LeaderHarry Reid to reconsiderimmigration reform becauseof the bombings. “The factsemerging in the BostonMarathon bombing haveexposed a weakness in ourcurrent system,” Paul says.
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), the senior Republicanon the Senate JudiciaryCommittee, which is respon-sible for an immigrationreform bill, is using muchthe same language — sug-gesting that the investiga-tion of the two allegedBoston attackers will “helpshed light on the weakness-es of our system.”
Whatever weaknessesexist in our immigrationsystem don’t explain whyDzhokhar Tsarnaev didwhat he is alleged to havedone. He came to the UnitedStates when he was 9 yearsold and attended the publicschools of Cambridge, Mass.,not far from where I lived.
Immigration reformshouldn’t be confused withnational security in anyevent. The main purpose ofreforming our outmodedimmigration laws is to dowhat’s right and give theestimated 11 million undoc-umented immigrants inAmerica — many of themhere for years, working atjobs and paying withholdingtaxes, and many of themchildren — a path to citizen-ship.

Great partnership makesMilitary Salute possible
A community newspaper is positioned toproduce unique special publications, but news-papers cannot be effective unless the businesscommunity steps up and partners with us onthe worthiest projects.
One example of that partnership in actionis the Military Salute that you will find in thisissue of the Vilas County News-Review andThe Three Lakes News — a special sectionfilled with feature stories on soldiers fromnumerous wars, the profiles of active-duty mil-itary personnel and a wealth of information onlocal veterans organizations and pending legis-lation.
The salute comes during National Mili-tary Awareness Month and in time to promotethe Memorial Day ceremonies that areplanned in virtually every community hereMonday, May 27. Many of the photos in thespecial section were taken during past Memo-rial Day services, where Americans take timeto honor the heroes who made the ultimatesacrifice for the freedoms we enjoy in theseUnited States.
Freedom is not free. Our national securitycosts billions of dollars but none of those costscompare to the burden being placed on themilitary and their families. The vast majorityof Americans who don’t serve will never fullyunderstand the long-term impact of wartimeon veterans and anyone close to them. Thecurrent war on terror is no exception.
We’d like to salute the veterans whoshared their wartime stories in this specialedition. We’d like to thank the veterans organi-zations for the civic-minded work they do andthe help they provide in welcoming soldiersinto their ranks. The credit for this sectiongoes to everyone who contributed.
From the standpoint of a communitynewspaper, we want our readers to know thisMilitary Salute would not have been possiblewithout the support of the businesses andorganizations that took ads supporting oureffort. Our civic-minded partners on this pro-ject deserve much of the credit.
As the state Department of Tourismannounced last week that travelers spent morethan $382 million in Vilas and Oneida coun-ties in 2012, events like the JourneysMarathon get credit for boosting tourism dur-ing the pre-Memorial Day fringe season.
The 17th annual Journeys Marathon lastweekend drew participants from 16 states andSydney, Austrailia, for a marathon, half-marathon, 13.1-mile power walk and a 5-kilo-meter event. In total, a record-setting 1,028participants, plus their families and friends,gave a boost to the tourism industry in thegreater Eagle River area. Many of those guestswill return again for another visit.
And best of all, the fitness-minded indi-viduals are promoting the sport of running,which has the potential to make positivelifestyle changes on the community as a whole.
Hats off to the sponsoring Eagle RiverArea Chamber of Commerce & Visitors Center,events coordinator Kim Emerson and the morethan 250 volunteers who made it all happen.

Letter to the Editor:After reading Mr. Gullan’s
letter (May 1 issue) aboutvoucher schools, I felt a littleclarification was needed. Mr.Gullan stated, “Private vouch-er schools are usually better.”
This is the headline froman article in the MilwaukeeJournal Sentinel of April 23,2013: “Wisconsin voucher stu-dents lag in latest state test.”
The article states, “About13% of students in privatevoucher schools scored profi-cient or better in math andabout 11% scored proficient oradvanced in reading . . . Mil-waukee Public Schools’ overallproficiency rates of about 19%of students proficient in mathand about 14% clearing theproficiency bar in reading.”
I am wondering why thestate legislators would want toexpand funding for anunproven program. Mr. Gullanstates, “Second, it is the parentwho decides where to sendtheir child to school.” This iscorrect. Wisconsin has openenrollment so that parents
can send their children to pub-lic schools in different districtsand parents have always hadthe option to send their chil-dren to private schools.
The rural districts, such asthe districts surroundingEagle River, would not benefitfrom voucher expansion. Ourtax dollars would go to urbanareas to fund their privateschools.
Another article from theJournal Sentinel stated,“Vouchers began in Milwau-
kee, were expanded to Racinelast year, and under Walker’sproposal would be allowed innine additional districts.Those are: Beloit, Fond du Lac,Green Bay, Kenosha, Madison,Sheboygan, Superior, Wauke-sha, and West Allis-West Mil-waukee.
“School leaders in all ninedistricts have spoken outagainst the plan, saying itwould devastate their budgetsand shift students into privateschools that aren’t held to the
same accountability measuresas public schools.”
My last clarification orquestion relates to this state-ment: “When I see letters fromour educators expressing con-cern over our under-achievingeducation system and offeringways to fix it, I will decreasemy skepticism.”
I don’t think that Ms.Andrist is a teacher.

VILAS COUNTY NEWS-REVIEW/THE THREE LAKES NEWS WEDNESDAY, MAY 15, 2013 19A
as that may sound.About halfway to where I
was going to set up I waspleasantly surprised to hear agobbler start to sound off,early for him in that it wasstill more dark than light. AsI neared my target area mypulse quickened considerablyas I realized he was a lot clos-er than I thought, so close infact that I could not get towhere I had planned ongoing.
Instead, within 75-100yards of him, I had to quicklypick out a big pine about 10yards off the logging roadwhere I could set up. It wasan ideal set-up if he followedthe rules and did what Iexpected him to do.
This bird followed the planin textbook fashion. For 45minutes he gobbled his headoff from the roost, at one timetossing out 12 consecutivegobbles, starting each one asfast as the last rolled off hisbeak.
At 5:30 he flew down fromthe roost. I was lucky enoughto catch a glimpse of him asheaded down. Adjusting myposition ever so slightly, Igave a few soft yelps on mybox call.
He gobbled right back.Switching to my mouth call, Ihit him with a few moreclucks and yelps. He hit meright back, this time a bitcloser to me. Then I did whattoo many turkey huntersdon’t do; I shut up.
By that time I knew I hadhim hooked, so rather thantake a chance of spookinghim off with too much calling
I let him come. He passedthrough a first possible shoot-ing lane at 60 yards, puffed-up and strutting.
He kept a-coming andpassed through another laneat 40 yards. A minute laterhe cleared the last of a clumpof balsam in front of me andstood, head held high at 30yards. It was time to wake upthe forest.
My Benelli spoke as it hasspoken many times before,and my first Vilas County,Town of Plum Lake turkeyever was on the ground. Itwas a moment of true cele-bration.
He wasn’t huge; in fact hewas a typical two-year-oldthat weighed 19 pounds, hadan 81⁄4" beard and had ¾"spurs, but he was, aside frommy very first bird in Mis-souri, the most satisfying gob-bler of my career.
It was a matter of joy, firstbecause I was able to hunt forturkeys figuratively in myown backyard and secondbecause I can now say, afterjust my second try, that Ihave bagged a hometown,homegrown turkey.
Perhaps you have to be ahunter to understand howmuch that means, perhapsnot, but know for a fact thatthe morning meant the worldto me.
What a great place this isin which to live and hunt.What a wonderful feeling it isto celebrate what for me isanother landmark achieve-ment in my life.
And just think, withanother tag valid as of today,I might get to experience thesame thrill this week. As YogiBerra once famously said,“It’s déjà vu all over again.”

they aren’t exploited byemployers and others whoknow they won’t complain toauthorities. And we shouldgive their families the possi-bility of living here peacefullyand securely without fearingdeportation.
That path shouldn’t be soeasy as to invite others fromabroad to abuse the system.America has every right todemand that undocumentedimmigrants pay a penaltyand move to the back of thequeue when it comes toattaining citizenship.
But the path should bereasonable, straightforwardand fair.
The new xenophobia does-n’t end there. Other politi-cians want to declare the sur-viving Boston bombing sus-pect an enemy combatantand deny him the protectionsof the criminal justice system.
Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) argues this is necessarygiven “his radical Islamistties and the fact that
Chechens are all over theworld fighting with al-Qae-da.”
Wait a moment. Tsarnaevwas arrested on Americansoil for acts occurring in theUnited States. No known evi-dence links him to al-Qaeda.He is Muslim, but does Gra-ham believe Muslims are pre-sumed guilty until provenotherwise?
It’s true that during theBush administration theSupreme Court upheld theindefinite military detentionof Yaser Esam Hamdi, whowas an American citizen.But the Hamdi case wasentirely different. Hamdiwas captured carrying aweapon on an Afghanistanbattlefield. The court saidthe purpose of wartimedetention was to keep cap-tured enemies from return-ing to fight, and that “indefi-nite detention for the pur-pose of interrogation is notauthorized.”
The so-called war on ter-ror is analogous to the ColdWar, which lasted almost 45years. During its height wecame perilously close toabrogating the rights of
American citizens on suspi-cions they had ties to com-munists.
If American citizens canbe arrested and held indefi-nitely without a lawyer orproper trial, and without thefull protection of our systemof justice, because we sus-pect they have ties to terror-ists, where will that end?
Our civil rights and liber-ties lie at the core of what itmeans to be an American. Wehave fought for over two cen-turies to protect and defendthem.
The horror of the BostonMarathon bombing is real.But the xenophobic fears ithas aroused are not.
We need immigrationreform. We must protect ourcivil liberties. These goals arenot incompatible with pro-tecting America. They areessential to it.

Letter to the Editor:A couple of weeks ago, I
saw Conrad Heeg, executivedirector of the Eagle RiverChamber of Commerce &Visitors Center, on the localnews. He pointed out thatthe number of tourists whovisited Vilas County lastyear was the largest in thehistory of the county. Thiswas no doubt due in part tohis leadership and the largenumber of volunteers who hementioned.
The headline of the May 8paper read “Vilas, Oneida seeincrease in tourism spendingin 2012.” It seems thattourism is alive and well inour county.
On the same front page isan article explaining why thetown of Washington rejecteda request from the NicoletATV Club of Three Lakes touse four roads to connectwith routes in Forest County.Three Lakes is in another
county! This is like me driv-ing through your yard to getto someone else’s.
Why the Nicolet ATV Clubthought they would ever getthe taxpayers of a differenttown and county to pick upthe tab for extra road main-tenance, liability insurancepremiums and enforcementis beyond me. This is exactlythe teenage, trespassing,don’t bother me arrogancethat the town rebuffed!
Perhaps we should con-centrate on things that havealways worked in the past:tourism — not necessarilynon-motorized tourism —but tourism that works anddoesn’t alienate others. Atthis writing, I’m told that1,000 people turned out forthe Journeys Marathon. If itisn’t broke, don’t fix it . . . tocoin a phrase.

Letter to the Editor:I salute every participant
in the 17th annual JourneysMarathon that was held onSaturday, May 11, in EagleRiver.
Not in recent memoryhave I seen as cold a May 11day as it was Saturday. I hadto go to town and wasamazed at the turnout tosupport the runners.
As I drove by, I noticed ayoung lady in a light shirt orjacket and shorts with a lightwrap around her body. The
wind was so strong, it keptblowing the wrap away fromher. I could see the expres-sion on her face — eitherexhaustion from running orjust braving the elements.
Once again, kudos and asalute to all. God bless them.

Dear Editor:This letter is in response
to Jeff Laadt’s letter lastweek.
I wholeheartedly agreewith Mr. Whittingham! Gen-esis 1:27 says, “God createdman in His own image.” I donot consider this hystericalrhetoric on life and abortion,seeing as this comes from theBible, the word of God.
It also says in Psalm 139,starting in verse 15 and con-tinuing, “My substance wasnot hid from thee, when Iwas made in secret.” This isevidence that life begins atconception! There shouldn’tbe any question of this and itis not a “single-mindedobsession of Christians,” asMr. Laadt mistakenly pointsout.
Life is not a negotiablecommodity. Seeing that we
are created in His image, wehave no right to destroy it,whether by abortion, murderor suicide. And I know whatI’m talking about, Mr. Laadt,as a year ago, my brothercommitted suicide.
Unfortunately, when we,as Christians, fall, we’relabeled hypocrites. If wespeak out against an issuesuch as abortion, we arelabeled a hate group.
The Scriptures go on tosay in Matthew 7:14,“Because strait is the gateand narrow is the way whichleadeth unto eternal life andfew there be that find it.”Call me narrow-minded, Mr.Laadt, but I stand on theword of God and believe itwith all my heart!
Teachers make a differ-ence. From the youngeststudents learning to readto college- and career-bound graduates ready fortheir next steps in educa-tion and the workforce, it’sclassroom teachers whostand alongside parents inguiding young people ontheir path forward.
It’s that dedication tothe future that keepsteachers going even in apolitical atmosphere thatput a target on their backs,making them the mostscapegoated of Wisconsinpublic servants. The pasttwo years have been excep-tionally difficult with larg-er class sizes, all sorts ofnew workplace rules, andlost wages, benefits andresources to support stu-dents. Whether you believeAct 10 was wise or wrong,it has changed the working
environment in our publicschools and that has hadan impact on staff morale.
This year’s MetLife“Survey of the AmericanTeacher” found teachers’job satisfaction haddropped to a 25-year low.Only 39% of teachers sur-veyed nationwide for theFebruary 2013 report saidthey were very satisfiedwith their jobs, down from44% a year earlier.Researchers attributed thedissatisfaction with budgetcuts leading to larger classsizes and fewer resources.This is something we knowabout here. The last statebudget cut $1.6 billion inpublic education funding.
The situation canchange. Wisconsin’s 2013-15 budget bill, which isbeing worked on now, couldimprove education financein our state, but it will takecourageous action by legis-lators. They need to fixfunding that is essentiallyflat for public schools
because it favors policyproposals that expand andincrease funding for inde-pendent charter and pri-vate voucher schools. Poli-tics is no easy task, but forthe sake of our 870,000public school children,increasing funding for ourpublic schools is a worthyfight.
The women and menwho educate our studentsknow the value of a worthyeffort. That’s why theywent into teaching. Educa-tors don’t work with kidsfor fame, though occasion-ally a parent or studentwill offer thanks.
They don’t teach forwealth, though a family-supporting paycheck andbenefits that include a dig-nified retirement should bea minimum. Those whowork in education love chil-dren and gain satisfactionby helping young peoplelearn new skills, masternew lessons. That melding

SPECIAL TO THE NEWS-REVIEW___________
Letter to the Editor:My concern for several
years has been the driverswho do not use headlightswhen driving duringinclement weather.
We should use the head-lights on our vehicles morethan we do. The vehicles ofalmost 100 years ago hadheadlights so the driver couldsee where he/she was going.The vehicle also had taillights; these vehicles traveledvery slowly.
Today, we drive our vehi-cles 50 to 70 miles per hour.We meet vehicles in a matter
of seconds. When driving,some drivers manually turntheir headlights off and leavethem off until it is difficult tosee the road. Some are reluc-tant to use their headlightsin fog, rain, sleet or snow.Also, some drivers drive withthe parking lights on. I don’tknow if that is legal.
Since 1995, the automaticlights come on when a vehicleis started, the tail lights donot come on. I criticize themanufacturers for that.Headlights on vehicles are asmall bulb and not veryexpensive and usually last a
long time.If you could save your life
or someone else’s by drivingwith your headlights on,wouldn’t you do it? I hope youwould.
Another dangerous prac-tice by some drivers is to passanother vehicle, especiallylarge trucks, when it is get-ting dark or the weather isinclement or there are otherunsafe conditions, withouthaving your headlightsturned on. This also is verydangerous.
J.P. HoltzThree Lakes
More drivers should turn on headlights
of tenderness and high stan-dards, skill and persistence,devotion and optimismmakes teaching a noble call-ing.
And that is the encour-agement I have to offer forthe observance of TeacherAppreciation Week. To themen and women in ourschools; for the young peopleentering college who alwaysdreamed of being a teacher— teachers make a differ-ence.
While some would dis-courage young people frombecoming teachers, I feel justthe opposite. The politicsaround education will be dif-ficult for the foreseeablefuture, but our students willalways need talented teach-ers.
Public education is mak-ing dramatic changes. We areboosting college and careerreadiness for all studentsthrough new assessmentsbased on the Common CoreState Standards and a new
evaluation system thatincludes educators in mak-ing decisions about how eval-uation will improve class-room instruction and studentachievement. These innova-tions make it a great time tobe in education. Be a part ofthe future. Make a differ-ence. Teach.

READER OPINION
Letter to the Editor:As the events of the bomb-
ing at the Boston Marathonunfolded and were reportedin great detail in the nationalmedia, I was — as were mostof us — horrified that twoyoung men could murderthree innocent bystanders,including one young child,and seriously injure nearly200 others.
There can be no doubtthat law enforcement did asuperb job in identifying andapprehending the two sus-pects.
I certainly don’t mean tominimize or politicize thesetragic events, but on thatsame day a much more tragicevent occurred that wentunreported by any of themedia. According to the Cen-ters for Disease Control, anaverage of 2,260 innocentbabies are murdered eachday by reported abortion inthe United States, and wecall that a matter of choice.
I’m sorry, folks, but theonly difference I see here isin the number of dead bodies.It is deplorable that we havea president who gets all emo-tional over the death of threepersons when there are politi-cal points to be made; but, not
only ignores the death of800,000 people annually, butadvocates their being mur-dered in a most horrible way.
History has shown thatany government that com-mits genocide against its owncitizens will not have a goodend. How sad it is that we, asa Christian country (yes, Mr.President, this is still a pre-dominantly Christian coun-try), criticize others for theirhuman rights violations yetcondone the mass murder ofhundreds of thousands ofunborn babies as business asusual in the United States ofAmerica.
Is it possible that ourcountry is reaping what itsows? How long can weexpect God to allow this tocontinue under the pretext ofcalling ourselves a godlynation?

EAGLE RIVER, WI 54521
ReflectionsBy Mary Friedel-Hunt
Hurry, hurryAs I write this, I just returned from Chicago having
visited my lifelong friend who is recovering from chemotreatments and seeing my ophthalmologist regardingupcoming eye surgeries. A long way to travel to an eyedoctor, you might say, but this woman has tended to myeyes for many years and understands the several diag-noses I have to deal with. But this column is not aboutmy friend or my eyes. It is about speed.
I grew up in Chicago. I spent the first 46 years of mylife there and have driven every freeway, tollway andmajor road over the years. At one point I traveled theTri-State Tollway daily, going to a job many miles fromwhere I lived. I know the area well and am not afraid ofbig city driving.
However, I do not drive those roads very often any-more. And this week, I used the Tri-State to get to thesouthwest suburbs for my doctor appointment. I havenot driven that road for a few years. The speed limit is55 mph. In all I drove the Northwest Tollway, the Tri-State, Interstate 39, and the 290 extension.
In all the time I spent on those roads these past days,I do not believe I saw one vehicle driving the speed lim-it. On Interstate 39, only the Schneider trucks were hon-oring that. On this trip, I started out adhering to the 55mph speed limit and soon found myself driving 70 mphand still not able to keep up with the traffic flow. Gigan-tic semis (have they gotten bigger?) zoomed past me orsandwiched me in on all four sides. SUVs the size ofbuses zoomed past me, low-riding sports cars and evenmotorcycles zoomed past. It was truly impossible for me
The Chain Skimmersrecently announced the firstperformance of its 43rd seasonMemorial Day weekend Sun-day, May 26, at 5 p.m. at Pleas-ant Lake, located three milesnorth of Conover and 12 milesnorth of Eagle River on High-way 45. This year’s theme isLewis and Clark’s JourneyAcross America.

“Aug. 5, 1994, was a land-mark day in the Chain Skim-mers’ history, because we wereable to make the final pay-ment on the land,” saidSavannah Graf, Chain Skim-mers publicity chairwoman.“Since then, the Chain Skim-mers are able to call the 107
acres surrounding Lake Pleas-ant home.”
Graf added, “Our successhas not come easily, but it hasbeen made possible due toteamwork, dedication and con-tinued support from our localcommunities, parents and, ofcourse, our audience.”

As part of National WaterSafety Month in May, theYMCA of the Northwoodsencourages children and par-ents to explore the benefits ofswimming while also keepingsafety foremost in mind.
Participants in the Y’sswim programs can engage inwater sports, or enhance orlearn new techniques whilealso learning safety skills thatcan save lives.
“Swimming is a fun andenjoyable activity for childrenand adults alike, and it’s aneasy way to stay physicallyactive and improve strength,flexibility and stamina,” saidMelissa Nieman, YMCA of theNorthwoods aquatics director.“The Y is committed to provid-ing as many opportunities aspossible for everyone to swimand learn water safety prac-tices.”
Only 19% of U.S. childrenget 60 minutes of physicalactivity a day, according to thelatest findings of the YMCA’sFamily Health Snapshot, asurvey that gauges children’sactivity levels during theschool year.
“Swimming also motivateschildren to strive for self-
improvement, teaches goalorientation, and cultivates apositive mental attitude andhigh self-esteem,” said Nie-man. “It also teaches lifelessons of sportsmanship, sothat children can learn how towork well with teammatesand coaches and how to dealwith winning and losing.”
The Y offers a variety ofprograms including familyswim times, swim lessons forchildren 6 months to 12 yearsold, private swim lessons andwater exercise classes.
The Y recommends chil-dren and adults practice thefollowing safety tips when inand around the water:
• Only swim when andwhere there is a lifeguard onduty, and never swim alone.
• Adults should constantlyand actively watch their chil-dren.
• Inexperienced swim-mers or nonswimmers shouldwear a Coast Guard-approvedlife jacket.
• Parents or guardians ofyoung children should bewithin an arm’s reach.

Trees For Tomorrowannounced it will offer a bat-monitoring training programfor those who want to help theWisconsin Department of Nat-ural Resources (DNR) moni-tor the state’s bat populationMay 30, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. inthe Education Hall on theTrees For Tomorrow campus.
The training is part of theTree For Tomorrow’s effortsto assist the DNR in assess-ing bat species populationand distribution.
The DNR uses the data tomanage the bat population inresponse to the growingthreat of white-nose syn-drome.
According to a Treesspokesperson, white-nosesyndrome was first discov-ered in 2006, and has infect-ed six species of insect-eatingbats in the northeastern andsouthern U.S., causingdeclines approaching 100%in some populations.
“As the deadly riskexpands west, it threatensWisconsin bats,” added theTrees spokesperson.
All bat species in Wiscon-sin use echolocation as a pri-mary means to locate food.By using hand-held ultra-
sound detectors with globalpositioning system unitsattached, bat survey volun-teers locate the bats bysound, and the acoustic infor-mation is processed to deter-mine bat species and exactlocation.
Goals of the acoustic batmonitoring project are:
— Identify distributionand relative abundance ofbat species throughout Wis-consin;
— Improve upon methodsof acoustic monitoring forbats;
— Monitor status andtrends; and
— Provide information toland managers, industry andthe public.
Volunteer monitors con-duct surveys 30 minutesafter sunset over a route thattakes an hour or more towalk or boat.
The DNR is most con-cerned with sampling asmany locations as possiblefrom April through Septem-ber.

to drive anywhere near thespeed limit without becom-ing the cause of an accident.People would come upbehind me and then quicklycut into the lanes on eitherside of me so they could pass.I refused to drive faster than70 mph and that worked
fairly well, but I was stillbeing left behind repeatedly.
Driving these roads feltlike a symbol of how fast weall live in our society. Momsrush their 6-week-old babiesto day care and on to theirjobs. Kids rush from schoolto any one of several after-school classes or activities.Dads rush to the airport orthe office. Kids talk fast,move quickly and can’t get acomputer that is fast enough
to satisfy them. People, espe-cially women, multitask allday long, even thoughresearch says it compromisesquality of work and createsstress. We are truly a hur-ried society. We hurry andwait. We hurry and createstress. We hurry and getsick.
Where are we all headed?When will we ever slowdown — or will we? And whyare we living like this?

A record-breaking num-ber of 850 hospital leaders,employees, trustees and vol-unteers from Ministry EagleRiver Memorial Hospitalrecently participanted inWisconsin Hospital Associa-tion’s (WHA) Advocacy Dayevent in Madison held April23.
Advocacy Day is anannual event that connectshospital supporters withtheir legislators in Madisonso lawmakers can learn howissues impact local hospitalsand communities.
“We are committed toattending WHA’s AdvocacyDay event, said Peggie Lam-bert, president of MinistryEagle River Memorial Hos-pital Auxiliary. “We believeit is important to talk withour legislators about impor-tant healthcare issues, likeMedicaid provisions pend-ing the state budget. Advo-cacy Day provides us withthe education and motiva-
tion to make our voicesheard.”
This year Advocacy Dayattendees heard fromkeynote speakers U.S. Rep.Paul Ryan and Dr. DavidRehr of the Graduate Schoolof Political Management atthe George Washington Uni-versity.
Attendees also heardfrom a bipartisan legislativepanel, including State Sens.Joe Leibham (R-Sheboygan)and Jennifer Schilling (D-LaCross) and State Reps. PeterBarca (D-Kenosha) and JeffStone (R-Greendale). Dur-ing the luncheon keynoteaddress, attendees heardfrom Department of HealthServices Secretary KittyRhoades.
This year more than 500attendees spent time in theafternoon meeting withelected officials in the StateCapitol to discuss importantissues pending in the statebudget.
Advocates made suretheir legislators were awareof the importance of provid-ing health insurance cover-age under the Medicaid pro-gram to low-income individ-uals making less than$15,300 a year to hospitalsacross the state.
Doing so would providemore coverage at less costfor the state while at thesame time provide stabilityfor patients and hospitals,according to WHA officials.
“We are from MinistryEagle River Memorial Hos-pital and are proud of Wis-consin’s reputation of pro-viding some of the highestquality, highest value carein the nation,” said Lambert.“Advocacy Day allowed usthe chance to reinforce thismessage with legislatorsand remind them that pro-posals like important Medi-caid coverage in the statebudget will help patients,hospitals and communities.”
