Grantsburg approves DNR bear hunt zone BY STEVE BRIGGS SENTINEL
GRANTSBURG—The Grantsburg Village Board Monday approved a Wisconsin DNR plan to create a “temporary nuisance bear hunting zone” encircling the village, with the goal of reducing or ending the bear problems in the community. The proposal creates a special 1.5 mile radius outside the village borders. Within that zone, the DNR SEE BEARS, PAGE 6

SIREN—The Siren Village Board planned to hold a special board meeting at 9 a.m. Thursday, Aug. 11 with The Big Doctor Lake Association to begin resolving a water problem that sometimes turns Big Doctor Lake pea-soup green. At its regular meeting last Thursday, both sides agreed the bright green water color is caused by

The Big Doctor Lake Association hopes that by working with the Village of Siren, waste water from the Siren Water Treatment plant can be better treated to remove excess phosphorous that has turned the lake pea-soup green on occasions this summer, like this photo taken July 2.
DANBURY—On the occasion of her 100th birthday on Monday, Aug. 1, Vivian Johnson soaked up sunshine in her favorite chair, took a walk, reminisced just a bit about her long life and then went to the casino to celebrate. “The casino is so much fun,” she said with a wry smile. “I confess, I love to gamble a little.” Slot machines are her favorite. “I may not see or hear very well, but I still like to play the slots and listen for the bells when I win.” Her daughter, Selma Maley, is her driver and
companion. “Enjoy yourself” is Vivian’s first suggestion for living a long life and making it to 100. “Have fun, don’t worry, work hard, don’t smoke, take life a day at a time, drink moderately and spend a little money at the casino. “And, spend time outdoors in the summer,” she adds. “The winter gets long, so I say take advantage of every sunny day that you can. I go outdoors every day I can for the fresh air, sunshine and at least one walk. I wore out my walker last summer and had to get a new one,” she laughs. She sports a dark tan. “Sharp as a tack” is how one

FREDERIC—The ancient Scandinavian lawn game of Kubb will be played and taught at the Frederic Soo Line Depot on Saturday, August 20, from noon until 2 p.m., by a member of the Minnesota Kubb Association and local players. Kubb is a lawn game where the object is to knock over wooden blocks, known as kubbs, by throwing wooden batons at them. Kubb can be described as a combination of bowling and horseshoes and is nicknamed “Viking chess” due to the strategies used in playing the game. Kubb can be played by individuals or teams of up to six players. The game ends when all team kubbs are knocked down, and finally the “king” kubb is tipped over by the winning team. There are rules and strategies that can make the game end quickly or last up to a few hours. The Frederic Area Historical Society is offering this introduction to Kubb with the annual Pie and Ice Cream Social fundraiser, held annually in mid-August, to help with the cost of museum operation. Pie and ice cream with refreshments will be available from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. For more information, call the Historical Society at 715-327-4158 or 715-327-4892 For more information on the game of Kubb: wisconsinkubb.com

THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK: Artificial intelligence is no match for natural stupidity.
4 BURNETT COUNTY SENTINEL
www.burnettcountysentinel.com
AUGUST 10, 2016
What else do we need? A couple of weeks ago I decided the Sentinel needed to do a feature story about the drought. After all, we are in our fifth straight year of below-normal precipitation. So, the Wednesday or Thursday before the issue came out with the story, I was calling everybody I could think of who could share something of value about our lack of rain. I was calling the Department of Natural Resources guy, I was calling Burnett County agriculture agents, I was calling the garden guy, I was calling the forSeems to estry guy, I was calling fire departments, it seemed like I was Me on the phone a lot. It was funny, because I disTodd Beckmann tinctly remember laughing when I had one guy on the phone telling him I was writing a story about our below normal rainfall — and it was pouring down rain when I was talking with him. We both laughed at the fortuitous turn of events. I know I didn’t think much of it at the time, I mean, it was just one afternoon rainstorm. Well, it’s been a couple of weeks now and it has been raining pretty regular since I wrote that story. I looked back at our weather stats for the summer and for the month of July, up until the time I started researching my drought story, the Grantsburg DNR station had reported 16-hundreths of an inch of rain. From the time I started making my first call on the drought story, just through the end of July and the first week of August, the DNR station reported nearly two and three-quarters inches of rain. The rain has been so regular, in fact, I’m starting to wonder why I didn’t write that story several weeks ago. I’ve shared that thought with others, more as an ice breaker than anything else — and most say something along the lines of ‘Why didn’t you write it months ago?’ It got me to thinking, ‘What else do we need?’ — as if I really had the ability to simply write about the lack of something and then getting it. But if I did...... I’d write a story about how district attorney Bill Norine and his staff are so shoe-horned into their offices, it seems like they all have three inches of paperwork on their desks because there’s no room to put it anywhere else. I’d write a story about the fact Burnett County is huge — 880 square miles, yet at times there is only one sheriff’s deputy patrolling the roads. I’d write a story about how civic-minded organizations like Kinship of Burnett County or Restorative Justice of Northwestern Wisconsin are viable groups who do such good work and show positive results, yet struggle to survive financially. I could go on and on, but I believe my point has been made — obviously, there are plenty of needs out there, and simply writing about them won’t fulfill those needs. I think the best a newspaper can do is report on these needs and bring them to the public’s attention. Editor’s note: The following column was originally published Aug. 12, 2009
BURNETT COUNTY
Always time for the anvil to fall Recently, I got an opportunity to take a trip back in time and bring my children and grandchildren along for the ride. For my Father’s Day present, my daughters purchased tickets to “What’s Up, Doc? The Animation Art of Chuck Jones,” a traveling Smithsonian exhibition that is at the Minnesota History Center through From the August 14. Publisher’s As an added bonus, we got to Desk watch about 10 Tom Stangl classic cartoons directed by Jones on the big screen with commentary from two of his grandchildren. Chuck Jones worked for Warner Brothers, leading a team that produced numerous iconic Looney Tunes and Merrie Melodies animated shorts that were played in theaters before movies. Jones is one of the “fathers” of Bugs Bunny, the creator of the Coyote and the Road Runner, as well as Pepe le Pew, Charlie Dog, Hubie and Bertie and the Three Bears. After Warner Brothers closed down their animation unit in the early 1960s, Jones did a series of Tom and Jerry cartoons for MGM.
Many will remember one of his most enduring works, seen annually, “How the Grinch Stole Christmas.” Valerie Kausen, one of Jones’ grandchildren who was present for the program I attended, was the inspiration and model for Cindy Lou Who. Jones was given an honorary Oscar for his body of work in 1996. It was presented by Robin Williams, who referred to Jones as the “Orson Welles of cartoons.” When accepting the award, Jones commented to the standing ovation “Well, what can I say in the face of such humiliating evidence? I stand guilty before the world of directing over three hundred cartoons in the last fifty or sixty years. Hopefully this means you’ve forgiven me.” Jones possessed a wry wit and gave his characters clearly defined morals. Bugs Bunny was always content to simply enjoy the scenery until he was trifled with by someone. His signature response, “of course you realize, this means war,” was the prelude to humiliation for his attacker. Among the treasures in the exhibit are Jones’ rules for the Coyote and the Road Runner. They include: 1. The Road Runner cannot harm the Coyote except by going “meep, meep.” 2. No outside force can harm the Coyote, only his own ineptitude or the failure of Acme

The Coyote is always more humiliated than harmed by his failures. 6. The audience’s sympathy must remain with the Coyote. 6. The Coyote is not allowed to catch or eat the Road Runner. Among the display were living cartoon scenes for photo opportunities. One of these was a desert scene where an anvil was suspended from a rope. I had my picture taken under the anvil. I firmly believe that however well your day is going, there is always ample time for the anvil to fall on your head. Now I have proof. I still love to watch the work of Chuck Jones and feel blessed to be able to do so with my granddaughters. I believe the answers to many of the mysteries of life are revealed in Bugs Bunny cartoons.

Guarding Your Right To Know Since 1875
The Burnett County Sentinel was the county’s first newspaper when Matthew Westcott began publishing on Feb. 19, 1875. The Sentinel continued weekly until its building and presses were destroyed by fire in 1909. The business was sold to its competitor. The Journal changed its name to “Journal and Sentinel”, but later reverted to the Journal of Burnett County. When the Journal folded in 1962, Wilbur A. Nelson revived the Burnett County Sentinel. Following his death in 1975, his wife, Marjorie Nelson and son, Gary Nelson operated it until Feb. 1, 1994, when it was purchased by Mainstream Publications. It was then purchased by Eugene Johnson on Dec. 1, 1998. The Burnett County Sentinel makes every effort to insure accuracy in all classified and display advertising, but will not be liable for errors beyond the cost of first insertion. The publisher reserves the right to reject or cancel any advertisement at any time. The Burnett County Sentinel is published every Wednesday by Sentinel Publications, LLC. USPS No. 080020.

Fluorescent bulbs, oil and filters and batteries; Oh My! BY JEN BARTON RECYCLING CONTROL COMMISSION
So you have a few items sitting around your garage and you don’t know what to do with them? Great, let me help you! If you have fluorescent bulbs, whether it be CFL’s (the compact fluorescent, curly bulbs) or tubes, they can either be brought to the hazardous waste collections or a few of our recycling sites. The Washburn County Household Hazardous Waste (HHW) collection is on Saturday, September 10. It will be from 8:30-10 a.m. in Spooner at the HHW Storage Site on Cottonwood Avenue in Spooner near the Humane Society, and from 12:30-3 p.m. in Birchwood at 412 Edenharter Drive (Sewer Plant). This is the last collection in our area for 2016. There are separate fees for bulbs under four feet in length and over four feet in length. There are other types of bulbs that are hazardous and we collect them as well. A charge will also be imposed on
those. Please contact Jen for more details at jbarton@nwrpc.com, or 715-635-2197. You can also recycle fluorescent bulbs year round at a few of our recycling sites including: Spooner, Minong, Grantsburg, Oakland and A&H. Prices are the same. Please give Jen a call with questions about exact locations and hours of operation. If you change your own oil and need to dispose of your old oil or filters, there are a few options. Oil filters are accepted at the HHW collection event and also at the Spooner Recycling Site. Oil filter disposal is $1 each whether at the collection event or the recycling site. O’Reilly Auto will also accept used filters as well as used oil, but please call them to confirm. Used oil can be taken to a number of mechanics in the two-county region. Call Jen for options as it is not accepted through the hazardous waste program event. Old batteries can be recycled at
the Spooner Recycling Site, however, ALKALINES ARE NOT ACCEPTED FOR RECYCLING. This is always a shock to folks, but we do not accept alkaline batteries. They can be safely disposed of in your regular garbage. We do, however, take all other batteries including button batteries, rechargeable and vehicle batteries, among others. There is no charge to residents to dispose of these batteries and it can be done at the HHW collection, the Spooner Recycling Site, Minong Transfer Station, A&H or Oakland recycling centers. Contact Jen for hours of operation and exact locations. Also, any place that sells vehicle batteries will accept them back and will usually pay you for it. If you have any questions about recycling or hazardous waste disposal in Burnett or Washburn counties, contact Jen at jbarton@ nwrpc.com, or 715-635-2197.

She will be at Frederic Library on Friday, August 26 from 4-6 p.m. On Saturday, August 27, Lona will be at Syren General Store from 1-3 p.m. The store has books to sell and both Webster and Frederic libraries have copies of her books. Lona Faye is hoping to see some friends she has not seen in several years. Siren Senior Center was the host for the Burnett County senior picnic. All the senior centers furnish something for the picnic. We had a good turnout with people meeting new faces. This gives everybody a chance to make some new friends. Did you know we have a library at the center where you can borrow books with no checkout? The books are not due – just borrowed, read and returned. We also have a craft room with items donated for sale. We have a huge collection of cards for sale. The card sale is a big item for the center as people have been able to find cards they have not been finding in other places. Congratulations to all the 500 winners. I don’t have the names as the list has been lost. I remember there was a three-way tie for fourth. We don’t see that very often. Spade winners were Arnie Borchert, Marilyn Niles, Doug Harlander, Mary Sicard and Susie Hughes. Need a place to come where it is cool? If you don’t have air conditioning, come to the center and enjoy coffee, company and a cool place. Election time is coming! A nominating committee was formed. The committee consists of Carol Berglind, Rose Miller, Abby Brand and Dave Meier. If you would like to have your name on the ballots, please contact any of the election committee. We have decided we will have a potluck all year. This will be held on the second Wednesday of the month at 11:30 a.m. Dates To Remember -August 11, Volunteer picnic at Siren park, 4-6 p.m. If raining, picnic will be held at Siren Senior Center. -August 18, next monthly meeting.
Correction in the Webster Centennial issue
The caption under Webster’s First Band was incorrect. It should read, “Members included (front row, from left), Chester Spooner, Charles Hopkins, Kelly Babcock, Walter Hanson, Guy LaForge and William Shutt. Back row: Herman Rixman, Lucius Spooner, John Shutt, Jr., Harry Spooner, Paul Babcock and John Shutt, Sr.” The Sentinel apologizes for the mistake.

will issue 75 permits to private landowners in an effort to eliminate up to 24 bears. DNR Wildlife Biologist Steve Hoffman of Grantsburg Crex Meadows station presented the written plan titled “Focused Bear Harvest Pilot Proposal: An Effort to Reduce Grantsburg Bear Issues.” “Nuisance bear abatement measures and high harvest quotas in Zone D over multiple years have not met the needs of the residents of Grantsburg,” the report states. “Even with extensive bear mitigation measures, there continues to be a high number of bear-related conflicts within the village.” Under the plan, the DNR will issue nuisance bear harvest tags to private landowners within a 1.5 mile distance from the village limits. Permits will be valid during the 2016 bear season, adjacent to and outside the Grantsburg village limits. Tags will be free and require the landowner to report any bears harvested. All Wisconsin bear hunting regulations and season dates will apply.
TWO-YEAR PILOT PROJECT The two-year pilot project will be evaluated on first-year results and on level of bear nuisance issues in 2017 before the second year of the special hunt zone is authorized. Under the plan’s details, WI-DNR will issue Nuisance Bear Shooting Permits to eligible private landowners within the designated area. WI-DNR will issue permits based on harvest objectives and monitor the harvest. The report continues, “While there is no perfect boundary, we would like to keep it simple and not have the territory ‘over-sized,’ especially in the first year. The proposed boundary is based on average bear territory size, and adjusted for drainages (Wood River and Hay Creek) that provide bear travel corridors to the village.” The special zone is mostly based on roads as boundaries to designate the hunt area and ownership parcels. Roads that serve as the outer border, or perimeter, of the special hunting zone, are: On the north, Grell Road from Larson Road to County Road D. East on D to North Williams Road.

excessive phosphorous in lake water, and its source is effluent coming into the lake from the Siren Waste Treatment plant. The Big Doctor Lake Association offered last Thursday to pay part of the cost of treating the water before it leaves the plant. The board appeared to embrace the idea, but delayed the vote until this morning to research the costs. NATURAL FILTRATION When the sewage plant was built in 2009 next to a wetland that feeds into Big Doctor Lake, facility designers said the wetland would act like a natural filtration system. But, as the lake association members pointed out, the high level of phosphorous has overpowered the wetland and affected the entire lake, as well as other lakes downstream that connect with Big Doctor. Phosphorous acts like a fertilizer on the algae, especially in hot and windy weather. The problem is compounded by the 213-acre lake’s depth. At its deepest, according to the DNR, Big Doctor is only nine feet deep. Siren board members voiced dismay that their six-year-old, $3 million sewage plant is the source of the problem. As a
group, they said they are willing to work with the lake association to find a solution.
President and spokesperson Helen Wilkie said, “We know the village is aware of the problem, and that it’s much bigger than just Big Doctor Lake and that the town board is also looking at the problem. We know there will be some changes required in the future, such as building drain ponds for seepage. “What we’re asking is whether or not you would consider moving forward on treating the phosphorous discharge now, before you are required to. The lake association is also willing to work with you to secure some funding for a long-term solution.” Wilkie added, “We know that the budget is always a major concern. But, we think that Big Doctor Lake, historically, is important to the town. Every night there are local residents using the public boat landing. The DNR has placed Big Doctor on the federal impaired lake because of the damage that has been done from phosphorus. It’s only getting worse. By this time of year, we sometimes don’t allow our kids or guests to go into the lake because it’s dangerous with the algae bloom, plus the motors get choked up from the excess weed growth. “We know you don’t have do it now, but we think it’s the right thing to do and that lake is important. “We’re willing to step up and partner with you on paying a percentage of the cost and help secure support for solving the bigger, longterm problem.”
TREATMENT AVAILABLE The village board and Siren Public Works Director Jim Jaskolka acknowledge a chemical treatment is available to use at the treatment plant that will decrease the phosphorous level. They haven’t used it so far because of the added cost, and because the designer’s optimistic theory that the wetland would filter out the phosphorous. The village will be required to start treating the water for excess phosphorous in 2018, after a DNR waiver expires that has allowed the treatment plant’s effluent to exceed the usual phosphorous maximum. The chemical is aluminum sulfate, also called alum. Treating the waste water with alum before discharge would cost the village an estimated $8,000 per year for chemicals and the manager’s time for adding chemicals and monitoring. The board has been concerned that cost could cause another climb in water rates, already bumped up to help pay for the new treatment plant.
LAKE ASSOCIATION OFFER At the meeting last Thursday, Big Doctor Lake Association’s officers and other members offered to provide up to $4,000 per year Brask-Fossum-Janke to help pay for the & Auxiliary’s alum treatment. Big Doctor Lake Association Vice

VIVIAN: Lifelong Danbury resident says, ‘Don’t worry, be happy’ CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Born in 1916 at home with assistance from a midwife, Vivian has lived her entire life in Danbury. Her father, Joe Cameron, ran the Ford Garage next door to their home. She and her mother, Selma, helped Vivian’s grandmother run a 12-room motel. Vivian helped keep the Ford garage’s books starting at about age 13. She also ran the garage’s gas pump, before the pumps were electric. “I sold gas at five gallons for a dollar, and that was about all a car could hold in those days,” she remembers. “When they electrified the pumps, a man showed me how to turn it on, but not how run it. I got it started, but couldn’t shut it off and sprayed gas all over the garage wall. Luckily it didn’t catch fire,” she chuckles. “With my dad in the car business, I always had a car.” She started driving at about age 10. In those days, one purchased a driver’s license for 25 cents at the drug store. No written or driving tests were required. In her early teen years, Danbury’s high school closed and Vivian began driving other Danbury students to school in Webster. “I got to keep any money I got from driving kids to Webster School in my Model A Ford, but everyone was poor so I didn’t make much,” she recalls. “Those were Great Depression times, and we all struggled to get by,” she notes. “I remember a Christmas without any presents.” “When you pick and sell blueberries to earn enough money to go to a movie, you learn to be careful with money. A buck was a lot of money for me, and I worked hard for it,” she says. “Money comes a lot easier for kids today. There was no such thing as a credit card.” When the bank at Markville closed, her father purchased two typewriters for Vivian and her sister, Stella. “Stella sold hers, but I taught myself to type and became a speed typist,” she says with pride. She was the bookkeeper for her father’s Ford Garage, recording all the transactions on paper in ledgers. She proudly displays a ring containing a perfect river pearl. “I had two Syrian friends – George and Gabriel Tonous – who harvested clamshells from the river and sold them to a button factory in Muscatine, Iowa,” she remembers. “That’s how they made their living.” She noted the clams were plentiful enough that nearly every year, the men would fill an entire boxcar. “They found many lovely pearls in those clams and gave me one for a ring.”
Vivian Johnson displays her pearl ring and Class of ‘34 ring
After graduating with the Webster class of 1934, she headed to Minneapolis by train to attend business school, residing in a boarding house and returning to Danbury on the weekends. School was disappointing to her because she already knew how to keep books and type. She returned to Danbury after graduating. She met her future husband, Lawrence Gregor Johnson, as high school classmates. He was nicknamed “Red” because of his hair color. “There were so many ‘L. Johnsons’ in the phone book that he went by the name ‘Gregor,’” she recalls. After high school, Red

worked at the Nelson CCC Camp and the Webb Lake Cabaret, then joined the Webster Phone Company as a lineman and electrician. When Pearl Harbor was attacked in December, 1941, drawing the U.S. into World War II, Red immediately enlisted in the U.S. Navy. First stationed at Norfolk, VA, Red sent for Vivian to come by train so they could marry. Both were 26. She could have gone to work there, but Red insisted she go back home to Danbury. After the war, Red and Viv opened a grocery store in Danbury in a former hardware store building. “It was the first air conditioned grocery store in the county,” she states. We had our grocery bags printed with “The largest, most modern store in Burnett County,” she recalls proudly. “We worked hard to make money and we learned how to save a little here and there,” she adds. They bought and sold wild rice and blueberries. Red bought many resorts on area lakes, sometimes reselling them and other times selling cabins and land parcels individually. “We built and lived in nice houses, but in the real estate business, we were always moving,” she recalls. Red was the grocery store’s butcher, but became increasingly involved in real estate while Vivian ran the store, which they operated for 20 years. After selling it in 1966, they went exclusively into real estate, opening a small office at the corner of State Highways 35 and 77. Later, they built a large office at that location, and it remains a real estate office today. For the past year, she has resided at Countryside Acres Assisting Living a few miles southeast of Danbury. She relies a lot on her daughter, Selma, and sonin-law Eric Maley, and also on son, Greg, and his wife, Liz. “Before I moved here, I called Selma ‘meals on wheels’ because she was so good about caring for me at my home. I was able to live alone into my 98th year. I am lucky to have my family.” She enjoys visitors and conversing and encourages people to stop by for a chat. While satisfied with the length of her life and no desire to live forever, “there’s always one more thing I’d like to do,” she says. She is looking forward to voting in the general election in November. “I think it’s very important to vote. I have voted in every presidential election and hope I can vote in the next one too,” she said.

Gov. Walker visits Trego BY BILL THORNLEY SPOONER ADVOCATE
TREGO– Flood waters have mostly receded following the massive flooding of a couple weeks ago throughout Northwestern Wisconsin following torrential rains. Roads are being repaired, damage is fixed. Life is not totally back to normal, but it is getting there. Included is Trego, where Jack’s Canoe Rental was one of the local businesses to suffer damage and loss of business in the wake of Mother Nature’s outburst of temper. Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker stopped at Jack’s Canoe Rental on Friday, Aug. 5 during a tour of the Northwest to recognize the hard work of those keeping Wisconsin open for business after the July storm. Gov. Walker’s visit follows his recent request for a federal disaster declaration for nine northern counties and a tribal nation. Also on Friday, he visited Copper Falls State Park in Mellen and Grand View Town Hall. The main point of his visit was to emphasize that Northern Wisconsin tourism venues are open and ready for fall visitors. River memories Jack Canfield started Jack’s Canoe Rental with his father in 1967 and continues to work there today with owner Bryan Keown. “This is my 49th year hauling canoes on this river,” he said of the usually gentle Namekagon that a couple weeks ago more resembled Wyoming’s Snake River, flooding homes and businesses as it swelled. After the rains, the river was too dangerous for travel and was shut down for a time by the nearby National Park Service. “We lost six days on the river right during our busy season,” said Canfield. “The Park Service had us closed. But when they opened it back up, we were back in operation. It worked out pretty good.” Canfield, who lives right near the business, suffered major flooding in his home. The water has since gone down. “The water right now is probably about two inches above normal, so it came back down real nice,” said Canfield. “It was up 40 inches when it peaked. There was lots of water flowing down.
BILL THORNLY | SPOONER ADVOCATE
Governor Scott Walker is a big supporter of Northern Wisconsin, and on Friday, Aug. 5, he visited Trego, stopping at Jack’s Canoe Rental, one of the local businesses hit hard during recent heavy rains and flooding. Gov. Walker took a photo with the owners of Jack’s, from left, Terri Keown and son Blake, and Bryan Keown with daughter Alexa.
“Not only did the water come up, there were a number of roads flooded here. My house was flooded, and so were five of the cabins right around here. I was paddle boarding right on Wagon Bridge Road coming down to my house in about two feet of water. The water was right up to the deck of the bridge, I’d say within about half an inch of coming over the deck. It came right over the gravel road on the other side.” Canfield said that in all his years on the Namekagon River, this was the highest water he could recall, though he did remember floods in 2001 and 1994 being close. Governor speaks Gov. Walker spent a lot of time talking to members of the large crowd. He was joined on his trip to the area by Sarah Klavas, Deputy Secretary of the Department of Tourism.
Brian Keown thanked everyone for attending. “Thanks for your support over the past few weeks, for getting us and all of Northern Wisconsin up and running.” “It’s exciting to show that things are back up and going here,” said Gov. Walker. “When the big flooding hit, we were with the National Guard doing tours in multiple counties here in Northern Wisconsin that were affected by the flooding. “All along the way, we’ve tried to stress, our attractions are open. This is prime time for attractions, whether its campgrounds, canoeing, tubing or kayaking. In our state parks and other areas, this is a prime time for us, particularly here in Northern Wisconsin.” Gov. Walker said a large effort is ongoing at travelwisconsin.com and the Department of Tourism to get the word out that the Northwest is open for business once again. “We’ve let people know all the different routes and ways to get in and out,” he said. The governor said that things have greatly improved since the flooding, and continue to improve. “Northern Wisconsin is open for the tourism business,” he stressed. “That’s the most important message we can get out to folks, to let people know. “The days are great, the travel is easy. People are having just as much fun as ever. They’re going overboard in what is already a wonderfully hospitable industry, looking out for their customers. We want to let people know now, more than ever, that all throughout the multiple counties affected by the flooding, things are getting back to normal.” A letter, he said, has been sent to President Obama asking for assistance for local governments. Gov. Walker stated he feels optimistic there will be assistance from Washington D.C. Mother Nature is an incredible, but moody lady. Some days in the Northwest are as beautiful and mild as any spot on earth. But, when her temper is up as it was a few weeks ago, her anger can be humbling. The outdoors have a way of healing itself, from fires to floods. And so it is with the Namekagon area. “Our tourism attractions are open, we invite people to come to the area,” said Gov. Walker. “Have fun, go canoeing, enjoy our great outdoors.”

DESIGNATED HUNTERS Permit holders (landowners) may designate a different hunter to shoot a bear, using their nuisance tag on their property. Per Wisconsin’s Administrative Code, only permittees will be exempt from the hunting license requirement. All other participants must possess a valid WI hunting license that authorizes hunting with a firearm. The DNR stated the plan would only move forward if approved by the Grantsburg Village Board. Now that the village board has endorsed it, the village will assist in promoting the program and advertising permit availability. Successful implementation will hinge on getting the word out on permit availability, and explaining the reasons behind the plan. WI-DNR and Village of Grantsburg will announce permit availability. WI-DNR will issue the nuisance permits prior to September 7, 2016 (opening of 2016 Bear Season). Hoffman said the plan was crafted by DNR Northern Region Wildlife Supervisor Mike Zeckmeister of the Spooner office. “He came up with this plan as a way to deal with the Grantsburg bear issues. This proposal has been reviewed by the office in Madison and everyone agreed we can go with this.� He continued, “It starts at regular bear season time and follows all the rules of bear hunting. If we reach the harvest of 24 bears, it shuts down. This is a pilot program, and we have no idea how it’s going to go. It’s one way to address the issue of
DNR EXPECTS SOME HEAT He said the DNR expects to get some hunter kickback about the program. “We recognize the fact that there is often a considerable wait time to get a bear hunting permit anywhere else in this zone. But, we hope they will recognize we have an issue here that is above and beyond the usual, and is not being addressed in the current bear hunting season. How we have been doing it hasn’t been working to end the village bear problem. We know that.� He said bear hunters will be able to contact land owners in the area to get permission to be the designated hunter on that permit holder’s land. “We’re okay with that. We’re trying to create an increased opportunity in that circle.� Given the homes and other buildings in the area, Hoffman expects hunters will hunt from elevated positions in tree stands and shoot down at the bear. He said the borders have been reviewed closely and most of the public land removed from the hunt area. “A lot of people have looked at this plan and the map.� He added that it’s unlikely any hunter will be allowed to take more than one bear. Following considerable discussion, Trustee Scott DeRocker moved to approve the plan. Trustee Diane Barton seconded. One board member dissented. Commenting in final discussion before the vote, Trustee Rod Kleiss said, “I cannot endorse this. I think there’s gotta be a better way to deal with bear who belong here as much as we do.� Hoffman responded, “We have to reduce the bear population in the village, but the other part of the equation is that people need to stop leaving food
out. That’s the reason the bears are in the village in the first place.� Earlier this summer, the board began work on an ordinance that may be used to levy fines against residences who feed bears, whether intentionally or otherwise. Violations include bird feeders, putting corn or other feed outdoors for wildlife, leaving pet food available to bears, and putting out garage tubs on the street the night before pickup instead of day-of-pickup. Barton added, “We are at the ‘have-to-do-something stage,’ for the safety of our families and children.� Voting in favor of the proposal were Barton, DeRocker, Trustee Larry Ebersold and Village President Glenn Rolloff. Kleiss voted against. Trustees Greg Peer and John Dickinsen were absent.

border roads are north Williams Road south to Hoffman Road, then a short jaunt west to Smestad Road. The boundary follows Smestad Road a short distance south to the southern border at Solness Road. The southern border follows Solness Road west to Hickerson Road, then north one-half mile, then west to Tobe Lake Road, then northerly again across fields to rejoin Larson Road. A copy of the map is available at the village office. The DNR will notify all landowners holding more than five acres inside the perimeter. The proposed harvest objective is 24 bears. The DNR will issue three times the harvest objective (75 tags) and rescind permits if the harvest objective is met. Permits will be issued to landowners owning five or more acres within the boundary. Permit activities will be limited to that parcel (private land only). Consistent with damage guidelines, it will be left to landowner’s discretion on hunting method (likely be limited to bait-only). One tag will be issued per landowner; however, if a landowner fills their tag and the harvest objective is not yet met, they can request another tag.
high bear numbers in and around the village.� During 2016, northside residents of Grantsburg became more vocal about frequent bear sightings, and the bears’ growing comfort level of being seen in daytime as well as night. Some residents complained of being unable to take their children out in their own yards. “We recognize there are other problem areas in Zone D, including Polk and Barron counties, and they’re looking at how to address it. So, we’re starting here in Grantsburg to see what we can do with it.� Supervisor Mike Janke attended the meeting and told the board, “The Town of Grantsburg Board is unanimously supporting this plan.� Hoffman said the DNR will contact the landowners and set a couple of days when the landowners can come in and pick up a permit, get their questions answered, and take it from there.

Siren suspect’s alleged gang ties put chief on alert BY STEVE BRIGGS SENTINEL
SIREN—Siren Police Chief Chris Sybers expressed concern to the Siren Village Board Thursday that his previous dealings with the Latin Kings gang may heat up again as another alleged member of that gang was arrested July 17 as the suspect in a Siren shooting. “The shooting was gang-related and drug-related,” he said. He thanked the Sentinel and another newspaper for cooperating on the story with him, “not blowing it out of proportion or putting anyone’s life in jeopardy.” The alleged shooter, Jack Garcia of Braham, Minn., is suspected of ties to the Latin Kings. The police report alledged he was wearing a hoodie bearing the gang’s name in bright letters when the shooting occurred. Sybers said, “As you may recall, in the late 90s I put a couple of Latin Kings in prison for drug trafficking, and I still have $25 grand on my head. This brings them up again, because this guy also appears to be a Latin King. That probably will rejuvenate that $25 grand on my head.” “The mentality of the gangs is this: ‘if you ‘diss’ me – disrespect me in any way – I’m coming for you,’” Sybers told the board. “No one wants a shootout on Main Street.” The suspect remains in Burnett County Jail after the court set bail at $20,000.
The District Attorney’s office charged Garcia with five counts, including aggravated battery, armed robbery by use of a dangerous weapon, possession of a firearm by a felon, theft of property and possession of methamphetamine. The five charges’ maximum fines and penalties total more than $50,000 and 50 years in prison. Garcia’s first court appearance was scheduled for Wednesday afternoon, Aug. 10. Sybers told the Siren Board that July was “a very busy month, to say the least” with hard rains, very congested traffic during the Fourth of July parade and fireworks, and the July 17 shooting in which one Siren resident was shot in the upper thigh and transported by helicopter to a Twin Cities hospital. Processing the shooting evidence and preparing the case against Garcia “has taken an enormous amount of time,” Sybers said. He thanked the other law enforcement agencies that assisted in the manhunt for Garcia and his arrest, including Burnett County Sheriff’s Department, St. Croix Tribal Police, Webster Police Department, Grantsburg Police Department and Wisconsin State Patrol. 4TH OF JULY TRAFFIC SNARLS “That Fourth of July was one of the worst days I have had here ever,” Sybers said. “I’ve never been yelled at, sworn at, screamed at and flipped off that much in
my whole career as on that Fourth of July.” Sybers said, “Events created a perfect storm of traffic. It was a holiday, a Monday, and everybody decided to leave for home at the same time.” Board members agreed they were surprised how many visitors stuck around for the Crooked Lake fireworks on a Monday night with a workday ahead. “Plus, this was the first year with the roundabout,” he added, which added to the steady stream of traffic. “Before the roundabout we had a stoplight with stop-and-go, stop-and-go. You had space to let parked traffic out onto the highway. This year there was no space. It was bumper-to-bumper all the way.” A board member said in previous years, with the stoplight, westbound State Road 70 traffic would sometimes backup past the “Last Call” bar, about one mile east of the stoplight. “Now,” Sybers said, “all that traffic was right in town. I anticipated some of it, but not to the magnitude we had.” He declared that next Fourth of July, they will enforce no parking on either side of Old Hwy 35 during and before the parade. “This year, vehicles were parked on both sides of Old 35, making it difficult or impassable for vehicles to meet. You got guys with trailers behind coming from both directions and there’s just no place for them to get past.
“Tempers flared and the situation might have gotten out of hand,” he said. Eventually, Sybers placed a squad car at Main Street and Old 35 to block anyone from driving north. “Next year, we’re going to sign it for no parking, and we’ll ticket and tow anyone who parks there during the parade.” The event keeps getting bigger and bigger, with people putting chairs in favorite spots along the parade route early on the morning of the parade or even the day before, trustees agreed. “Thank God I had help from three state troopers, three tribal officers plus our two Siren squads. I thought it was going to be a day, but all eight of us ended up directing traffic the entire time. “I am thankful we didn’t have a problem on the parade route, because I don’t know what we would have done.” Village President Dave Alden said, “We’ll adjust to it. We’ll live with it. You guys did a great job in a situation we weren’t aware of. Now we’re aware and we’ll make changes. “And, if we need more people (law enforcement), we’ll get them.” Trustee David Doty added, “We advertise like crazy to get people to come here, and now we’ve got them.” Everyone laughed. President Alden concluded, “We’ll all put our heads together and be ready for next year.”

Seven ways to make mornings less hectic
M
any families find the rush is on to make it to school and work on time each morning. Feeling rushed in the morning is a recipe for added stress. Rushing through things is a poor way to begin a day, and those feelings of uneasiness can put a damper on the rest of the day ahead. Making mornings less hectic involves a few different strategies that parents and kids can easily incorporate into their daily routines.
lowing day out each night. This saves time and takes a couple more things off your morning to-do list. • Ease back into a routine. As a new school year dawns or a long vacation comes to an end, begin going to bed earlier and start waking up earlier as well. This can make the transition from carefree mornings to busy mornings go more smoothly. • Prep backpacks in the evening. Look through folders, sign paperwork, check assignments, and do whatever is you need to do the night before to save your family from having to scramble in the morning. This ensures those permission slips get signed and items make it back into school bags. • Opt for school lunch a few times. Look ahead on the school lunch menu and speak with children about

Drop off your donations • Wake up slightly earlier. Getting up earlier than normal, even if it’s just 15 to 20 minutes before you’re accustomed to getting out of bed, can help reduce morning stress. Resist the temptation to hit the snooze button over and over again. A few extra minutes each morning can make you feel more relaxed and make for a smooth, stress-free start to the day. • Get some work done the night before. Prepare lunches the night before and have them ready in the refrigerator. In addition, lay your clothes for the fol-

which meals they enjoy. Let kids purchase school lunch on those days to give yourself a day off from lunch detail.
• Have quick breakfast foods available. Smoothies, cereal bars, oatmeal, and whole-grain cereals are fast and nutritious ways to start the day.
• Carpool whenever possible. Busy families can save themselves extra work by proposing a neighborhood carpool. Sharing school dropoff detail frees time up for parents once or twice a week, and kids may enjoy traveling to school with their friends.
Mornings can be tricky when family members are getting ready for school and work at the same time. By practicing a few daily rituals, it’s possible to curb the rush and start the day happier and more relaxed.

Tips to beat wardrobe wars when Back-toSchool shopping for kids
I
t’s no secret that kids have strong opinions when it comes to style and that their tastes are always evolving. With 38 percent of parents spending between $100 to $249 per child on back-to-school clothing, according to statistics from online retailer zulily, parents and kids alike should feel confident in their purchases. “It’s never a good feeling to buy your child new clothes, only to find a favorite color, pattern or style has changed,” says Shawn Redman, senior buyer and kids’ fashion expert for zulily.com. “This back-to-school season, our ‘Kids’ Trend Report’ uncovered that now, more than ever, it’s important to involve kids in the shopping process to lessen potential power struggles and inspire smiles on the first day of school.” Redman recommends planning ahead to avoid stress. Start by cleaning out your kids’ closets so you can see what still fits and create an accurate checklist of needed items. Then, look for the best deals to help you stay
within budget. Online retailers like zulily.com can be a go-to destination to discover great deals on back-toschool shopping, including a variety of shoes, apparel, accessories and school supplies. Daily, the site features a new assortment of unique looks at great prices. To help parents shop for kids, zulily is offering key survey findings from kids ages five to 12, in its inaugural “Kids’ Trend Report.” • Girls go against gender norms while embracing the combination of comfort and style, with their top look being athletic (40 percent), followed by boho (33 percent). Boys, however, are looking to a more adult-influenced approach for fashion inspiration, preferring city chic (48 percent) and preppy (33 percent) for their back-to-school wardrobe. • The classic, yet cool, color of blue is the top choice among all kids (26 percent). However, for girls, pink (29 percent) and purple (25 percent) reign supreme. Boys still prefer blue (42 percent), with red (15 percent) and black (12 percent) coming in as second and third choices. • Sorry Mom, girls say you are not their number one style icon. While many moms use their own style as the main source of inspiration when shopping for their kids (38 percent), girls are more likely to turn to friends (41 percent) first for inspiration, then to Mom (26 percent), followed closely by television (22 percent).

DRIVE SAFELY!
Children are on their way back to school, and as a motorist, you will have to exercise more caution on the road. Children don’t always watch for traffic or pay attention to what they are doing, so it’s your job to look out for them. Please exercise caution while driving, especially during school hours or near schools, playgrounds, parks and residential areas.
Thanks for keeping our kids safe.
Grantsburg School District
Boys continue to go with the flow and frequently turn to parents for style inspiration first (38 percent), followed closely by friends (34 percent), with television being the smallest source of their style inspiration (14 percent). • Style inspiration isn’t the only thing moms and daughters may not see eye-to-eye on, with 36 percent of moms admitting to disagreeing on clothing choices with their daughters. To beat the wardrobe wars, a majority of moms (58 percent) recommend giving their children choices and letting them ultimately pick their own outfits. “The back-to-school season is a perfect opportunity to inspire kids to express their individuality and boost their confidence,” says Redman.

Time-saving meal prep tips for the busy Back-to-School season
W
hen the school year starts, the hours in the day become more precious. With time spent ferrying the kids to soccer practice, making sure homework gets done and simply relaxing, cooking family meals can sometimes get short shrift or you succumb to takeout temptations. Here are some strategies to help you create tasty, nutritious meals in a flash.
REACH FOR THE RIGHT TOOL The wrong tool means working harder, not smarter. Make sure knives are sharpened and utensils are clean and well-maintained. Use specialized ergonomic tools designed for each task. For example, KitchenIQ’s Prep-n-Peel Potato Multi Tool features a scrub brush for cleaning vegetables. A paring knife stored inside the peeler handle re-
moves bad spots and eyes easily. Likewise, the brand’s Pepper Tool takes the grunt work out of seed removal, with flexible fingers that work with large bell peppers to small jalapenos. To fi nd the right tools for your kitchen tasks, visit kroger.com. MAKE AHEAD Mornings are often rushed, but don’t skip the most important meal of the day. Consider nutrition-packed breakfasts that can be prepared in the evening (while you’re already prepping dinner), and then reheated in the morning. For example, you’ll be ready to go with these “Make Ahead Breakfast Bakes,” from Heather Tullos, author and photographer behind SugarDishMe.com. Ingredients: • 1 large Russet baking potato, peeled • 8 cherry tomatoes (optional) • 1/4 cup red onion, diced • 1/4 cup bell pepper, diced • 6 eggs • 2 ounces finely shredded cheddar • Salt and pepper to taste
for 5-6 minutes. • While the potatoes pre-bake, whisk together onions, bell peppers and egg, making sure to lightly beat the eggs. Note: basically any ingredient that works in an omelet will work here! • Take the muffin tin from the oven, pour the egg mixture into each cup, sprinkle with cheese, and bake for 1214 more minutes. The eggs will puff up in the oven. When they’re done, the center won’t jiggle. • Remove from oven. After they cool for a minute, loosen around the edges with a knife and lift from the pan. • Serve immediately or let them cool completely before wrapping and freezing. Microwave to reheat.
STAY ORGANIZED, BE ACCURATE Don’t let efficiency and accuracy be at odds in your kitchen. Find menu ideas quickly with new apps for your phone that help you organize recipes and find needed ingredients quickly at the store. Then, outfit your kitchen with tools that help you follow recipes with more precision. For example, KitchenIQ’s Compact Digital Scale supports up to 11 pounds and features an LCD display and a compact folding design. By relying on tried-and-true strategies, and new tech and tools, family meals can be the relaxing oasis in a hectic day. (StatePoint)
School Begins Sept. 1
Instructions: • Preheat the oven to 375 F. Spray eight cups of a standard muffin tin with nonstick cooking spray. • Grate the peeled potato.

Siren, Luck, Unity seniors participate in all star game BY GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS
OSHKOSH—Five seniors from Luck High School, and one student each from Siren and Unity participated in the Wisconsin Football Coaches Association All Star Games recently at Titan Stadium in Oshkosh. Proceeds from the event went to Wisconsin Childrens Hospital. From Siren, Neil Oustigoff, Jr. went along with Jared Hunter, Jordan Jones, Noah Mortel, Christopher Pouliot and Parker Steen from Luck who were on the North Eight Man squad. The North was coached by Luck head coach Don Kendzior who
brought along assistants Matt Dunlap and Ryan Humpal. The North defeated the South 48-14. Pouliot helped the cause by scoring a 14 yard touchdown run in the first quarter, an 11 yard scoring run in the third quarter and a 43 yard jaunt in the last quarter. Mortel also scored in the second quarter on a six yard touchdown catch. Pouliot finished with 27 rushing attempts good for 204 yards and three touchdowns. Mortel had four catches for 27 yards and one score. In the Small School game, the North also won, defeating the South by a 28-24 score. Jesse Vlasnik of Unity saw action as a defensive back. The South won the large school contest by a 17-7 margin.

WEEKLY WAG News and Updates from the Humane Society of Burnett County
In one of my recent articles, I mentioned the four kittens that had been in foster care with a shelter volunteer named Kris. These little ones had to be bottle fed, which is a big commitment for a volunteer to take on. The original count of the litter was five, but one poor kitten died early on. There was another kitten hanging on for life and, although it is still the runt of the litter and the one having to be bottle fed longer than the others, it survived and thrived and has a pending application (along with one of his brothers). A big shout out and thank you to Kris for taking these kittens into her home and giving them the chance at life! Two kittens are left waiting to be adopted —Smudge and Summer. Because we hope that they get adopted together, we are offering a special rate of $100 for both. They can also be adopted separately, but that would be at our regular rate of $75 each. Smudge is a male and has medium hair and Summer is a female ball of fur. You’ll never get the two mixed up. Smudge and
Summer share the same coloring, but Smudge is more white than black and Summer is a little more black than white, not to mention their hair length. They love playing together and they love cuddling together. This duo is sure to give you hours of entertainment while watching their antics when awake, and they will make your heart melt when watching them peacefully at sleep. Smudge and Summer are now over eight weeks old so they are ready and waiting to go “home.” What are you waiting for?! Update: Gisla, the little grey tabby kitten that I fostered in my home for almost a month, has a pending adoption application. Fingers crossed! If you are interested in adopting Smudge, Summer, or another animal from our shelter, please visit our website at www.hsburnettcty.org or contact the shelter at 715-866-4096. The Humane Society of Burnett County is a not-forprofit 501(c)(3) organization. We do not receive financial assistance from the county. Donations of money or supplies are tax-deductible.

Reviving a tradition from years ago, Josh Thompson was selected Little Mr. Siren at the Siren Pageant Saturday night and also won ‘Best Spirit.’
Cassandra Maslow was crowned Miss Siren 2016 Saturday night during the annual queen pageant at Siren High School. Cassandra also won best gown. Nicole Dalsveen was crowned Miss Siren Princess. Greta Johnson was named Miss Congeniality. Josie Taylor’s dancing won the talent event, and she was also named Miss Photogenic. Hannah Huntley was named Junior Miss Siren and Mackenzie Hicks Junior Miss Siren Princess. Hannah won Miss Congeniality while Mackenzie won the best evening gown and talent events. In the drawing on stage for Little Miss Siren, Mya Jones was selected. She also won “Best Spirit” in her division. Madison Boyd was selected Little Miss Siren Princess. At the encouragement of High School Prin-
cipal Jason Hinze and others, Little Mr. Siren was added to the program for the first time in many years. As a young boy, Hinze represented the community one year as Little Mr. Siren. Competing for the boy’s crown this year were Loghan Huntley and Josh Thompson. In a drawing, Josh was selected as Little Mr. Siren. He also won “Best Spirit” in his category. Outgoing Miss Siren 2015 Abby Kosloski and her court showed photos from their reign, and thanked the audience, parents, helpers and sponsors for their support. An enthusiastic crowd cheered on the contestants. The men’s trio “Harmonic Balance” provided music. Royalty from nearby communities was present to welcome the new Siren royalty.
