‘I am an addict and that is the best thing about me’ BY STACY COY SENTINEL
In August of 2016, Rose Peloquin was hiding from deputies in the woods after a string of burglaries in Siren. On Thursday, Rose proudly stood in front of a court room full of family, friends, and loved ones receiving her graduation certificate from Burnett County’s
drug court program. “My name is Rose. I am an addict and that is the best thing about me,” she said as she spoke to the room after receiving her certificate. “I once heard a friend of mine say this in a meeting and I didn’t really understand what she meant by this until now.

wasn’t for my addiction, I wouldn’t have learned to appreciate the things in life that I once took for granted. I wouldn’t have learned that I have courage and strength to make myself a better person and mother.” Peloquin is the sixty-third person to graduate from the drug court program which was started in 2006 in Burnett County. Participants must be post-conviction, and be on probation to participate. For some participants, the program is a “last stop before prison” and an alternative to probation revocation. Burnett County judge Melissia Mogen was beaming as she presented Peloquin with her graduation certificate, “You have come so far Rose. I am so proud of you. I am so glad to see you here today. You have worked very hard, you have never quit. You have sacrificed and given up some things. You have taken responsibility for your actions and you have put forth your energy to better the community, to better yourself, to better your family, and to be of present mind. I am so very proud of you.” The drug court program is strict and requires a lifestyle change according to coordinator Tessa Anderson. Participants are required to pass weekly drug tests, complete community service hours, find employment or continue their education as well as participate in alcohol/drug abuse treatment. Peloquin spoke of the tough structure of the program and how it has helped

her with her sobriety, “Getting off drugs was not easy, but it was the easiest part. My pain, shame, guilt, and dishonesty were the hardest things to get over. Instead of just saying what Tessa, Katie, and the judge wanted to hear I started doing what they wanted me to do. And after a while, those things they wanted me to do started to get so much easier because I enjoyed doing them.”
ELECTION: 1st question of Siren referendum passes for school improvements CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
incumbents Rick Engstrom, Janet Hunter and Todd Schultz won re-election defeating challenger Paul Riemer. Riemer got 51 votes with the closest incumbent Schultz gathering 102 votes. Engstrom and Hunter got 122 and 108 votes respectively. Half of the Siren School referendum appears to have passed. Throughout the district, the first question on improvements to the school passed with 440 ‘yes’ votes and 233 ‘no’ votes. The second question regarding the athletic field also seems to have failed with 333 votes in favor and 336 against. In the Town of Dewey, incumbent Steve Dahlstrom won re-election for supervisor and Shorty Crosby defeated Bret Iverson for the second supervisor position. Dahlstrom received 89 votes compared to 62 for Crosby and 29 for Iverson. Blaine voters elected Jessica Estridge and Josh Fornengo as supervisors. They defeated Billy Fish and Daniel Ellefson. Estridge received 64 votes and Fornengo 44, with Fish and Ellefson getting 12 and 16 votes respectively. Town of Grantsburg voters elected incumbent supervisor Tim Curtin and challenger Dana Shultz. They defeated
challenger Cory Barnette who received 74 votes. Curtin and Shultz got 80 and 111 votes respectively. In the Town of Sand Lake incumbents, Jerry Tjader and Amy Bruss were re-elected by defeating challenger Kenneth Pardun Jr. Tjader received 53, Bruss 57 and Pardun 49 votes. In the Town of Siren voters re-elected incumbents Wayne Wiberg and Bert Lund Jr. They were able to defeat challenger Jim Hunter. Wiberg got 164 votes, Lund 136 votes and Hunter received 101 votes. Town of Union voters elected incumbent Supervisor Wayne Burmeister and challenger Mary Rivard. Burmeister got 38 votes, Rivard 41 votes and challenger Dennis Johnson got 27. The Wisconsin Supreme Court race between Judge Brian Hagedorn and Lisa Neubauer may be heading to a recount. The race was too close to call at time of print. The winner will be replacing Shirley Abrahamson, who served on the Supreme Court for over 40 years and decided not to run for re-election. Burnett County voters chose Hagedorn with 1953 compared to 1118 for Neubauer.
“With the tools that I have gained from my NA program and the structure of drug court, I have learned that I can a live a more fulfilling life being sober. In this moment of clarity, I can admit now that I don’t want to become a statistic of jails, institutions, or death. I want this better, sober life that I have been given through my sobriety.” Judge Mogen told Peloquin of how she
was personally affected by the actions of August 2016 when the town of Siren went on lock-down as deputies searched the area. “I had just had a baby, and it was scary. But to see the person you are today is 1000 times different than that person.” The judge also presented Peloquin with a quilt, gift certificates and a key chain that reads “Difficult roads often lead to beautiful destinations.” “Today looking back it feels as if that period of my life is over or forever long ago,” Peloquin said. “I don’t even recognize the girl I once was, and for that I can thank the drug court team for believing in me and not giving up on me when I wasn’t honest with them when I first started this program. “Two years ago I thought I had lost everything, but today I can stand here and say I have gained back everything I have lost. I have almost two years sober and the love of my life by side to support me. I have my home, I have custody of my children plus two stepchildren. I have my parents and my siblings back in my life along with their support as well. I have a job to go to every week with awesome bosses who are so understanding and flexible with my drug court schedule. “With everything I have gained back with my sobriety, and with all of the hard work I have put into it I know now that the promises of AA and NA are real. If I can do it, anybody can do it. This program was a challenge for me, but it was all worth it in the end.”

Technology is (at times) the root of all evil Do me a favor and reset/change your passwords regularly. All of them. Some of you may have gotten an email from my email account earlier this week. It came from editor@burnettcountysentinel.com, and stated the Sentinel was working on a new project. It contained an allegedly encrypted file. When the receiver clicked the link, they were asked to enter their email and password. This message was probably sent to thousands of people and I found Sentinel out about it while I was at a company meeting in Amery. Editor Recipients were never shown Jonathan Richie this new project, and from what I understand were just sent back to the login page. It doesn’t appear to have been a virus, but a phishing email intended to gather personal information. If you were one of the people that clicked the link, I apologize. Again, please reset all your passwords. I ended up spending my entire Friday waiting for an anti-virus program to scan my computer to make sure there was nothing else suspicious on it and then our IT guy went through everything again. Then our IT guy continued to do more tech things to solve the problem. See, even us millennials get fooled and click the wrong thing from time to time and screw everything up. A friend of mine told me about an article she read recently saying those of us born between 1985-1995 are the “best type of millennials” – her words, not mine – because we have grown up with this abundance of technology but have lived without it. I always tell people, “yes, I can grab a device or open a program and putz around with it or do some clicking and figure it out within a few minutes.” It comes in handy when trying to explain FaceTime to my grandma, or explaining any number of technology concerns my mother might be dealing with. These scammers are going after our phones as well. How many of you get those phone calls from random numbers saying they have “important information regarding your car’s warranty”? I would assume it’s most of us. Well, the FTC has gotten millions of reports on those calls and recently came out and said billions of those calls have been made in the last few months and that number is only increasing. And finally, please change all your passwords and never type your password into a website if you are already logged in. These scammers are getting better and more sophisticated with each day. If in doubt, delete the message or don’t answer the call. If it is legitimate, they will leave a message or resend the message. And if I had a new project to share with you, I probably wouldn’t encrypt the file. Your time is valuable. Don’t waste it on these idiots.

Spamming Skynet In the “Terminator” movies of the last 30 years, sometime in the fictional future, the artificial intelligence network of computers called Skynet becomes self aware and enslaves humanity. For those you who haven’t seen the movies, there’s time travel involved as the remnants of rebel humanity seek to protect the future version of their leader, John Connor. Skynet sends a young Arnold Schwarzenegger back in time to kill Connor. Skynet, the artificial intelligence From the (AI) network had been entrusted with Publisher’s all aspects of societal controls, everything from traffic control to nuclear Desk weapons. In these movies, humanity Tom Stangl gave its fate to the machines willingly, knowing that the future would be safe in the hands of unemotional machines. It turns out that when the computer becomes “self aware,” it realizes the greatest threat to the planet is humans, so it sets about to destroy as many people as possible. While the movies are a lot of fun (the first two, at least), scientists and ethicists have been constantly debating the merits of machine learning and how we will be able to “pull the plug” if and when the machines become smarter than their creators. This is no longer the science fiction of the last century, AI is now touted by mainstream vendors like Microsoft as a tool to help do mundane and repetitive tasks without errors. Billions are being invested in self driving cars and wireless networks fast enough to make communication between the machines possible. AI is coming, ready or not. I have read numerous articles on this topic. I find it fascinating. As a kid who grew up in the 1970s, one that was told I could live on the moon, I knew that I would have a robot servant.

Robot maid from “The Jetsons.” At the very least, I would have a clunky model like Robby the Robot from “Forbidden Planet.” Love those actuated gears that click and clack when he’s thinking. I think there is something innately human about worrying if the machines will become our overlords, but we may be worrying for nothing. It turns out that hackers are already setting the progress of machine learning back. Dawn Song, a professor at UC Berkeley who specializes in studying the security risks involved with AI and machine learning, is warning that we may never get to the promised land of AI learning if hackers don’t stop messing around. An article in Technology Review says that Song warned that new techniques for probing and manipulating machine-learning systems—known in the field as “adversarial machine learning” methods—could cause big problems for anyone looking to harness the power of AI in business. Adversarial machine learning involves experimentally feeding input into an algorithm to reveal the information it has been trained on, or distorting input in a way that causes the system to misbehave. By inputting lots of images into a computer vision algorithm, for example, it is possible to reverse-engineer its functioning and ensure certain kinds of outputs, including incorrect ones. It’s kind of like a prank call to a really naïve person who never gets the joke, stopping time and again to see if their refrigerator is running. Since the fictional Skynet became self aware on Aug. 29, 1997, I think we are good, at least for a while. It is somehow fitting that imperfect humans will ruin the future — or save it, depending on your point of view. As always, I welcome your comments.

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 CAPITOL REPORT
Down-ballot races, referendums could stoke April election turnout WISPOLITICS.COM
The Supreme Court race between Appeals Court Judges Brian Hagedorn and Lisa Neubauer headlines the upcoming April 2 election, but several measures down ballot could spark interest and juice turnout. Mayoral races in some of the state’s largest cities have the potential to draw voters to the polls. In Democrat-dominated Madison, incumbent Democratic Mayor Paul Soglin will face off against Satya Rhodes-Conway, a board member of the Democratic Party of Dane County, and a former three-term Madison city alderwoman. Democratic operatives say that race should help Neubauer. Green Bay will also play host to a mayoral election, where former Democratic state Rep. Eric Genrich will face off against Patrick Buckley, a Brown County supervisor. Genrich won 44 percent of the primary vote, compared to just 18 percent for Buckley, who is backed by the Brown County Republican Party. In Oshkosh, incumbent Mayor Steve Cummings and Deputy Mayor Lori Palmeri square off after narrowly splitting the primary, winning 39.6 percent and 39.3 percent of the vote, respectively. Meanwhile, 26 school districts across the state will seek authorization to expand general obligation bonding by over $1 billion for construction projects. The largest bonding referendum
comes from Sun Prairie Area School District, which is asking to borrow up to $164 million for a multi-phase project to: build a new high school; improve secondary schools; rebuild Ashley Field as a district-wide athletic and multiuse facility; remove several buildings; and purchase equipment. The school district will ask voters to exceed its revenue limit by $5 million per year. The remaining 25 school districts are asking to borrow between $2 million and $129.5 million for building projects ranging from an elementary school to a track and field complex. The districts with the largest bonding referendums are: Winnebago County’s Neenah Joint School District; Dane County’s DeForest Area School District; Fond Du Lac County’s Fond du Lac School District, which will have two bonding referendums; Milwaukee County’s Shorewood School District; and Rock County’s Milton School District. A handful of school districts statewide will also have referendums on the ballot asking their voters to approve measures exceeding revenue limits. Revenue limits are calculated by dividing the amount of state aid received in the previous school year and property taxes levied for the previous school year by the average of the number of students in the three previous school years. A total of 26 school districts have requested to exceed their limit by a
total of more than $179.5 million over a 10-year period. The school districts asking to exceed the revenue limit by the largest amount are: Kettle Moraine School District, with a ballot measure in Waukesha County asking to exceed the revenue limit by roughly $6 million per year for six years; New Berlin School District, also located in Waukesha County, with a request for $5 million per year for five years; and Palmyra-Eagle Area School District in Jefferson County, asking to exceed revenue limits by a total of $11.5 million in increasing increments over a four-year period. A vast majority of the requests to exceed revenue limits, including the three largest, would kick in during the 2019-20 school year if approved. Six school districts will also ask voters to approve exceeding the revenue limit by an additional $11.9 million per year on a recurring basis. The largest chunk of that figure comes from school districts in Dane County, with the Sun Prairie Area School District’s $5 million request to exceed their revenue limit clocking in as the largest by far. DeForest Area School District and Marshall School District have the next largest requests. The two districts will ask voters to approve exceeding their revenue limits by $2.5 million and $1.25 million, dropping $875,000 after two years, respectively. Additionally, several local referendums could play a factor in turnout.
Addiction brings forth community engagement SENATOR PATTY SCHACHTNER
Addiction is a difficult subject to discuss because it is often complex. For one, drug addiction is a law enforcement matter, which brings a moral element to the discussion. Theft is clearly wrong, as is assault. But moral judgment when it comes to drug addiction is less clear. Addiction can be intertwined with physical dependence, which blurs the lines on culpability, self-responsibility, and free will. Addiction is a criminal justice issue, but it Patty is also a health care issue – and Schachtner a human issue. Recently, I hosted multiple District 10 events at the University of WisSenator consin-River Falls to address addiction and mental health. I was honored to welcome Lieutenant Governor Mandela Barnes, who participated in our student mental health roundtable and our screening of “Written Off,” a documentary film about one man’s battle with addiction. Matt Edwards, a Wisconsin native, became addicted to prescription opioids after a toe surgery. He went on to abuse pills and other drugs, cycling between the desire to quit, withdrawal, and relapse. The screening helped illustrate the complexity of addiction. An individual seeking health care ended up addicted to something that was legal and prescribed by a doctor. The screening also provided a glimpse into the national opioid crisis, which claimed the lives of almost 2,000 Wisconsinites in 2017. Following the screening, we had a panel of individuals representing law enforcement, the judicial system, and those who have interacted with drug court. I was honored to have our panelists Pierce County Judge Joseph Boles, Pierce County Dis-
trict Attorney Sean Froelich, River Falls Police Chief Gordon Young, Pierce County Drug Court Coordinator Mary Kelly, drug court participant Tasha, and drug court graduate Chris share their unique perspectives on this complicated problem. The conversation was impactful and deep, and we all have a role to play in combating addiction. As a legislator, my biggest takeaway was the need for resources. I am encouraged by past bipartisan efforts to address the opioid crisis. But addiction isn’t limited to just opioids. Meth and fentanyl are disrupting lives and county budgets, particularly in northwestern Wisconsin. When it comes to addiction and how we can combat it, we need to talk about our priorities. In Madison, there is no greater signal of priorities than the state budget. In his budget proposal, Governor Tony Evers has proposed more money for our rural hospitals, and for mental health and addiction services. The governor has also proposed to expand Medicaid, which would increase access to addiction treatment. There is room for bipartisanship, even if we might disagree on some items in the budget. I genuinely believe Medicaid expansion is one of those areas. The nonpartisan Legislative Fiscal Bureau has estimated that Medicaid expansion in 2020 can expand coverage to 76,000 more people while saving $279 million over the 2019-20 biennium. The state saves money because expanding coverage triggers additional federal funding that offsets state spending. I am grateful for the opportunity to listen and bring these perspectives down to Madison. I’m hopeful that we can come together to find real solutions to the addiction crisis. State Senator Patty Schachtner represents Wisconsin’s 10th senate district. The district covers parts of Burnett, Dunn, Pierce, Polk, and St. Croix counties.
Wood County will have two questions about marijuana on the ballot. One will ask voters if medical marijuana should be legalized, while the second asks if marijuana should be legalized for recreational purposes and taxed and regulated like alcohol. The Village of Egg Harbor in Door County will also ask voters about these two issues. Vernon County and La Crosse County, meanwhile, will ask voters to weigh in on redistricting. Both counties will ask if a nonpartisan procedure should be implemented to draw legislative and congressional maps. The Town of Newbold in Oneida County will also ask voters about redistricting. Cities and towns across the state will also have referendums on the ballot on a variety of topics, with questions ranging from whether ATVs should be allowed to drive on roads to the organization of municipal government. Sheboygan will also have a referendum on the ballot asking voters to weigh in on the so-called “dark stores loophole,” which allows large retailers to claim their buildings should be taxed at the same rate as closed, or “dark,” stores. In November, voters in more than 20 counties, cities, and villages across the state backed referendums urging lawmakers to pass legislation to change the provision.

Webster man charged with 7th OWI JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
SIREN—A vehicle with no headlights on, driving through Siren at night lead to a Webster man being charged with his seventh OWI. Ronald Hart, 72, Webster, was charged with operating while intoxicated (7th), a class F felony, and misdemeanor operating while revoked. Siren Chief of Police Chris Sybers pulled over a vehicle without headlights on as it passed Crooked Ronald Hart Lake Park Feb. 27. He was able to stop the vehicle near the Dollar General on State Road 35/70. According to the criminal complaint, after Sybers turned on his emergency lights Hart pulled over on Works Progress Street
in the middle of the road. Sybers asked him why he stopped in the middle of the road and Hart allegedly began to laugh and then said he was sorry. Siren police officer Trevor Thiex was called to the scene to assist. He noticed Hart was having trouble keeping his balance, and needed to lean on the rear of his vehicle while they spoke with him. Both Sybers and Thiex saw a 12 pack of beer on the passenger side floor of the vehicle, but noted none of the containers were open. Hart was informed the officers were planning on doing a field sobriety test. That is when Hart allegedly told officers he did not wish to do the test because he was impaired. The complaint outlines Hart’s six previous OWI convictions dating back to 1998 and most recently in 2010. He is scheduled to have his preliminary hearing held April 12.
Grantsburg man pleads guilty to sexual assault charge JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
BURNETT COUNTY––Alan W. Byers, 42, Grantsburg, has pleaded guilty to one count of repeated sexual assault of a child, a class C Felony. Online court records show Byers pleaded guilty March 21 to one felony count. He was initially charged with two counts, and now Alan W. Byers the second count will be dismissed, but read in for sentencing purposes.
In August, detectives had just begun reviewing Byers’ case after speaking with the victim’s mother when he showed up at the Sheriff’s Department lobby, saying, “I did something bad.” When the detective and a social worker interviewed Byers, he was very tense and spoke slowly. He explained that it began when the juvenile pulled his pants down and touched his penis. Byers said she initiated it, but he did not stop her, and said it happened numerous times. He also said that he was “not right in the head.” His sentencing hearing is scheduled for July 19 in front of Polk County Judge Daniel Tolan.
School board moves forward with building project KAYLA CASEY SPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL
GRANTSBURG––The Grantsburg School board got a visit from members of the summer building project team from Kraus-Anderson at their meeting last month. John Huenink (Kraus-Anderson), John Erickson (DSGW), Jason Peterson (Kraus-Anderson), and Maria Pfeffer (KFI) all attended the meeting to inform the board members on the process for the building project in the high school, in hopes that the members would pass the motion to continue with the summer building project with Kraus-Anderson and their team. They also discussed a possible design detail for the High School gymnasium bleachers. Erickson spoke about where they were with the project. Being the lead architect, he went over some of the design details for the gymnasium. When
it comes to the new set of bleachers, Erickson said the color scheme they were thinking of was purple and gray seats. Board member Russ Erickson thought having both colors of seats might look too “busy,” so John suggested purple seats with gray accents. Renae Rombach thought perhaps the gray would be more difficult to keep clean, so she suggested purple seats with black accents. John said he would put a design together for both. The final decision on the bleacher colors should be made by late April, so they can be placed in order to keep within the timeline. When Grantsburg Superintendent Dr. Joni Burgin asked about the timeline of the project, John responded saying, “Still on track, we’re about halfway through with the schedule and the submittal process.” A short while later, Dahlberg called upon the board to approve a proposal from Kraus-Anderson and John Erickson for the summer building

‘As I’ve watched things like this over the years, if you’re going to do it, you want to do it right, and you want winners that can get it done right.’ Joni Burgin Grantsburg Superintendent project. Before making a decision on the motion, Huenink gave the board members some information on the project’s process. They would begin their process with walkthroughs of the high school. During these walkthroughs, they will be assessing multiple aspects of the schools, such as the buildings’ overall condition, security, educational adequacy, and capacity. This portion of the process takes approximately three to four months to complete. If the board continues to move forward with the project, Kraus-Anderson would suggest moving to the community engagement process, which would be part two of the project, and would start around August. During this portion of the process, they will put together a survey and meetings for the community to complete and attend. Their goal is to send a survey to every property owner within the district in order to receive the community’s input on the project. This will be the first marketing piece that will be put into play for the project. Huenink stated this process helps them better understand what the community recommends for the project. This part of the process also takes approximately three to four months. This process co-exists with the third process, which is the citizens’ committee making recommendations. During this process, the board will take into account all of the surveys and the community’s input. The fourth process is the grass-roots referendum campaign. It’s at this point the school board really wants to inform the community about the project and remind them why it is important. Again, this part of the project typically takes another three to four months. If the referendum passes, the project moves into its final phase, implementa-
tion. This is when they begin to design and construct the project. In Huenik’s closing statement, he discussed how Kraus-Anderson and their partners can benefit Grantsburg Schools: the study’s strategy is designed specifically for the community, transparency, K-12 experts, checks and balances, and has an 85 percent referendum track record. Before making the decision to move forward with the motion of approving a proposal with Kraus-Anderson, Burgin said, “As I’ve watched things like this over the years, if you’re going to do it, you want to do it right, and you want winners that can get it done right.” Russ also said that he was “very impressed with how they would carry it out.” The final proposal was that the administration would move forward with retaining their services and would negotiate an amount up to $34,000. The decision was made that the motion would be carried.
In other items: • The iForward school calendar was approved. • John Addison and Caitlin Olson were named the co-head coaches of the Pirate’s Girls’ Golf team, which will begin in the fall. • Dana Morrin’s retirement from teaching was approved, she will continue coaching. • Pam Peterson’s retirement was approved. • End of Year Projects for the schools were also approved to start receiving bids. They would like to get the schools’ copiers fixed, provide the teaching staff with updated computers, and several smaller cosmetic fixes.

The Webster Police Department responded to an apartment complex within the Village, Friday, March 29, to follow up on an animal complaint. While speaking with the dog owner, Chief Stephenie Wedin noted the subject displayed nervous behavior, and detected the odor of marijuana wafting from the residence. Based on this information,
a search warrant was obtained and executed on the residence later the same day. Based on evidence found at the scene, the following subjects were arrested and taken to Burnett County Jail and are charged with Maintain Drug Trafficking Place, Possession with Intent to Manufacture/ Deliver, Possession of THC, and Possession of

Burnett County Law enforcement receives seat belt grant JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
BURNETT COUNTY–– The Burnett County Sheriff’s Office will be working with Grantsburg, Siren, Webster, and Tribal Police Departments on a seat belt enforcement grant. Siren Police Chief Chris Sybers said it’s a two-year grant that will continue until 2020. “It started in March, and the first one will run until October,” Sybers said. “Then we will get a second grant
that will run from October to October, ending in 2020.” The grants reimburse traffic stops and the hours the officers work. He added the paperwork can be tricky, but since they have already participated in this particular grant process he does not foresee any challenges. “It’s the same grant we had a couple of years ago,” Sybers said. “So we know how it works within the system and dealing with the Department of Transportation.”

Supervisor points out Wood River zoning JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
BURNETT COUNTY–– County Supervisor Norman Bickford gave the County Board his committee report from the Land Use and Information committee meeting held on March 5. “We had a pretty quiet meeting early this month,” Bickford said jokingly. “We had 124 chairs set up and there were still people standing in the hallway.” Bickford pointed out the Town of Wood River is not zoned through the County. Meaning landowners within the Town of Wood River can “do what they want with the land,” Bickford stated. “I don’t know if that point was made clear to the group, but that is the case,” he said of the group Concerned Citizens of Big Wood Lake. The reason the conditional use permit was submitted was due to the
Shoreline Protection Ordinance in the county. The Burnett County Code of Ordinances states parcels located within 1,000 feet of any lake are subject to the regulation of the Shoreline Protection Ordinance. The concerned citizens’ group has stated at a number of meetings they understand the zoning. They are worried if “they (the Kinsellas) get their foot on the lake with that permit, then what is to stop them from putting a giant RV park on the other 200-some acres they own,” a citizen said at the Town of Wood River board meeting March 20. The majority of that land, owned by Patrick and Judi Kinsella, is in Wood River but a portion of it sits in Trade Lake. Bickford also said, since the permit applicant requested their permit be withdrawn they will formally dismiss it at their April meeting on April 2.

State crime lab dashboard launches as resource to address substance abuse JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
MADISON––Attorney General Josh Kaul announced new data on drug evidence submitted to the Wisconsin State Crime Laboratories (WSCLB) since 2008 is available for the public’s review. “This data can be a resource for those who are working to address substance abuse in Wisconsin,” said Attorney General Kaul. The dashboard has data on 14 common substances and shows how many times Burnett County has sent materials to the state crime lab. It shows in 2019 there have already been 18 cases for methamphetamine sent to the lab and 34 in 2018. The dashboards include county-level data on submitted evidence that identified drugs (benzodiazepines, cocaine, fentanyl, heroin, hydrocodone, hydromorphone, ketamine, methamphetamine, NBOMe, oxycodone, pregabalin, prescription opioids, THC, and tramadol), starting in 2008. It tracks all 72 counties in the state and allows the user to compare different counties’
cases for different substances. The WSCLB worked with the Wisconsin Department of Justice (DOJ) Bureau of Justice Information and Analysis (BJIA) to publish interactive dashboards on the drugs identified by the Controlled Substances Unit. The Controlled Substance Unit at the WSCLB analyzes evidence for the presence (or absence) of controlled substances as defined in the Unit Controlled Substance Act. These data dashboards were developed by BJIA, which works to inform criminal justice policy and practice by conducting objective research, analysis and evaluation of information. BJIA first launched interactive data dashboards in 2016. Other dashboards currently available, which include uniform crime reporting data from 2013 to 2017, are arrests by location, arrest demographics, offenses by location, offense and arrest data by agency, and sex offenses. The dashboard can be found at www.doj.state.wi.us/dles/ wscl/chemistry/wscl-drugcases.
WISCONSIN DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
The public can now view and see trends linked to substance abuse. This graph on methamphetamine cases sent to state crime labs shows cases peaked in 2015 with 36 cases. There have already been 18 meth cases sent to WSCLB in 2019.

Burnett County annual fish and wildlife public meeting April 8 Wisconsin residents will be able to nominate and elect local representatives to the Wisconsin Conservation Congress, and express support or non-support for a range of proposed rule changes and advisory questions on natural resources management issues at the DNR Spring Hearings and Conservation Congress’ Annual County Meetings held in every county of the state on Monday, April 8 starting at 7 p.m. This year’s Spring Hearings will offer additional opportunity for the public to weigh in. The DNR and WCC will provide an online option for input for those people who aren’t able to attend a hearing in person, or for those who would rather provide input at the hearing using their smartphone. For security, and to ensure the integrity of the results, individuals will be required to sign in to use the online version, just as they do in person. The online version of the Spring Hearing questionnaire will be posted on the Spring Hearing website (dnr.wi.gov search “spring hearing.”) The input form will go live at 7 p.m. on April 8 and remain open until 7 p.m. on April 11. The county meetings are held jointly with the Department of Natural Resources Spring Hearings. The Wisconsin Conservation Congress is a statutorily established advisory group to the state Natural Resources Board (NRB.) “The joint DNR and Conservation Congress annual meeting for Burnett County will be held at the County Government Center, 7410 County Hwy. K, in Siren,” said Wayne Norling, chair of the Burnett County delegation. At the meeting, citizens will have the opportunity to comment and provide input on Congress proposals that could someday become the rules that regulate fishing, hunting, trapping, and other conservation needs or concerns they observe. “Citizens have the opportunity to weigh in on natural resource issues that may affect them. The Congress asks these questions to gauge the public’s support, or lack thereof, on any given issue,” said the County Delegate Chair. Results of the public’s input on these proposals will be presented to the Natural Resources Board in May 2019. If there is support for a proposal, the advisory question could become a DNR rule change proposal in following years. This year the Conservation Congress
will seek public input on 39 advisory questions on a range of topics, some of which include: • A proposal to designate the hickory nut as the Wisconsin state nut. • A proposal to remove the 36 inch size limit on sturgeon during spearing season. • A proposal to require pheasant, grouse, and quail hunters to wear blaze orange or pink. • A proposal to increase setback from fields to streams to 30 feet; some are as little as 5 feet now. • A proposal to restore deer tagging requirements in statutes. “Conservation Congress advisory questions generally originate from citizens’ ideas,” said Larry Bonde, Chairman of the Wisconsin Conservation Congress. “If resolutions presented at the county level meetings are supported, the resolution is advanced to one of the Congress’ advisory committees and the District Leadership Council for consideration. “Last year, there were over 300 resolutions submitted locally. Not all resolutions pass, but the ones that do have the potential to become a rule, policy, or legislative change in the subsequent years,” Bonde said. “It is a true grassroots process that empowers the citizens of this state to shape natural resources policy.” Anyone submitting resolutions must submit two copies of their resolution typed on 8 ½ by 11 inch white paper. Resolution writing instructions and a template for writing a resolution are available online on the DNR’s website. In addition to the Congress advisory questions, the county meeting is also reserved for the election of delegates to the Wisconsin Conservation Congress. To vote for Congress delegates, one must be 18 years old, provide identification along with proof of residency in the county, and attend the spring hearing in person. “There will be one seat up for election in Burnett County in 2019,” stated Wayne Norling, County Delegate Chair. “Any citizen of the county, who is a Wisconsin resident and is at least 18 years of age, may be nominated to the Congress for a two or three year term. Nominees must be willing to volunteer their time and represent their local citizens on natural resource issues.” For more information, contact Wayne Norling at 608-335-5418 or norlingw@ gmail.com.

Watt to be next Grantsburg Superintendent JONI BURGIN, GRANTSBURG SUPERINTENDENT CONTRIBUTED
It is my privilege to announce that Josh Watt will be the next Superintendent for the Grantsburg School District effective July 1, 2019. Josh holds teaching licenses in Secondary English, Social Studies, History, and Geography. I was a part of his hiring process for the Social Studies/ English teacher position at Grantsburg High School in 2002. It is a great joy for me to have been a part of his career over the past 17 years. Josh earned a Master’s degree in Education from St. Mary’s University and added his principal’s license through Norda/Wiscad in August 2006. In addition to teaching, he was the Dean of Students for GHS under Stan Marczak. Josh has served as the Grantsburg High School Principal for five years, since 2014. He will complete his Education Administration Specialist Degree (Ed. S.) for a Superintendent’s license in October 2019 through UW- Superior. Josh has faithfully served the school district in many varied areas of responsibility. In addition to being an outstanding teacher, Josh was involved with the charter school grant team that launched our online schools. Because of his previous responsibilities as Dean of Students and High School Principal, Josh has experiences with discipline, parent communications, faculty collaboration, scheduling, alternative learning, and Professional Learning Communities. He is also the coordinator of the Home-based Education program for the school district. He served as the online and distance edu-
cation coordinator for GHS and used his expertise in technology to present at state and CESA #11 workshops. He also coached high school football for 17 years, the last five years assisting with game day analysis. He earned several teaching awards during his tenure at GHS: Herb Kohl Fellowship Recipient 2007, Rotary Club teacher of the Year 2008, and NUE most influential teacher (twice). Josh is married to Robyn and is a father of three (Kalvin, Jadyn, and Ian). He is an achiever and learner. He likes to do his best and inspires others to be the best they can be. He knows how to get along with staff, students, parents, board members, and fellow administrators. Without hesitation, I give him my highest recommendation. Congratulations on your new leadership role!

CARPe Diem: to seize the carp The St. Croix River Association (SCRA) is pleased to host Andrew Reeves, author of “Overrun: Dispatches from the Asian Carp Crisis” for a reading and conversation at Hop & Barrel Brewing in Hudson on April 10, as he offers a behind-the-scenes look and firsthand journey into the heart of the Asian carp crisis in North America. This free event will also feature Ron Meador, a veteran journalist for Earth Journal, MinnPost, who will moderate the discussion with Andrew after his presentation. The door opens at 5 p.m. with the program starting at 6 p.m. Andrew says, “This isn’t a book about fish, though they play a leading role: it’s a book about us and our reaction to the latest invasive species threatening to become a permanent fixture of the landscape. It’s a book about what winning and losing looks like in the uphill struggle to manage invasive species. And it’s a book about how a fish’s extraordinary jumping ability propelled it onto the nightly news and the nation’s Most Wanted list.” This is a free event, but registration is strongly encouraged, as space is limited. Books will be available to purchase. Food is not available on-site, but may be brought in or delivered.
St. Croix Festival Theater Event The St. Croix Festival Theatre is proud to present a John Denver tribute artist, Layne Yost, Saturday, April 6 at 7:30 p.m. The concert will be located at Alliance Church of the Valley. Yost, a local artist from Bloomer, Wisconsin, has been performing for audiences since he was a teenager. Being asked what he aims to bring to the performance, Yost shares about being inspired by John Denver shows he saw growing up: “That’s the type of show I want and need to play, intimate, close, connected. This is not an impersonation show, but rather a sharing of his songs and message in the context of his life and world events.” Yost and his friends Jon Shimoda and Carol McDowall share Denver’s music through guitar, upright bass, and fiddle arrangements. Of the show’s nature, they say “Every show is great fun, a real adventure.” Last year’s show was the second largest audience in the St. Croix Festival Theatre’s 2018 musical lineup. Marketing
SUBMITTED
Layne Yost returns to St. Croix Falls with their popular John Denver tribute music in early April.
Director Isaac Bont, a fan of John Denver, relayed excitement about the group returning, “John Denver was a true class act with amazing music. I can’t wait to see how this band captures his spirit and bring their own lives to the
table in their performance.” Tickets can be purchased at FestivalTheatre.org, by emailing festivaltheatreboxoffice@gmail. com, or by calling the box office at 715-483-3387.

MADISON – Gov. Tony Evers has declared April 8-12 as Wisconsin’s Tornado and Severe Weather Awareness Week. Wisconsin Emergency Management, the National Weather Service (NWS), and the Wisconsin Broadcasters Association (WBA) have once again teamed up to sponsor the statewide tornado drills scheduled for Thursday, April 11. Schools, businesses, families, and individuals have two opportunities to test their emergency plans during statewide tornado drills April 11. The drills are part of the annual spring severe weather campaign to encourage everyone in Wisconsin to be ready for possible tornadoes and severe weather. According to the NWS, PUPPIES FOR SALE! Wisconsin averages 23 tornadoes annually. $500 a piece However, in 2018 the 4 males, 7 females National Weather Service (black, tan, and red) confirmed 33 tornadoes Ready for pickup in the state.

The drill on April 11 will begin with a mock tornado watch at 1 p.m., followed by a statewide mock tornado warning at 1:45 p.m. Many radio and TV stations across the state will issue the test tornado warnings. In addition, mock alerts will be issued on NOAA Weather Radios, and many communities will sound their tornado sirens to test their emergency severe weather plans. Later, a mock tornado warning will be issued at 6:45 p.m. to give families and second-shift workers a chance to practice their emergency plans. The tornado drill will take place even if the sky is cloudy, dark, or rainy.

Your voice has power COMMUNITY REFERRAL AGENCY
April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month. Use your voice to support survivors and say “No More to Sexual Assault.” The call came in at 1:18 a.m. to tell me that I was to report to a Sexual Assault Nurse’s Exam (S.A.N.E.) at the hospital. As I was quietly getting dressed my thoughts were on the sexual assault survivor, a young woman who lived in our area. I knew this wasn’t going to be an easy night for her. I hurried to the ER where the assault victim was already in a hospital gown waiting for her exam. Tears streamed down her face, her hair was a mess, and bruises were starting to form under her eye and around her neck. She had no one in the area to call as she lay there recounting her rape. The man who assaulted her on her way to her car after her work shift was a customer who came in often to the restaurant where she worked. My heart broke for all she went through, and all that she would need to deal with moving forward. This was just the start of a long road to recovery. In a report published by FiveThirtyEight.com on Jan. 2, 2018, it was determined by survey that out of 100 sexual assault incidents, 84 were reported by women and 16 were reported by men. Most research on sexual violence focuses on male perpetrators and female victims, though the NCVS estimates that men were victims of over 51,000 incidents of rape or sexual assault last year. Out of 100 incidents surveyed, 33 reported being in an intimate relationship with the offender, 39 reported being attacked by an acquaintance, and 19 reported not knowing their attacker. Surprisingly, out of 100 incidents 77 were not reported to the police. Many list fear of not being believed, self-blame, and concerns about how the justice system will handle the incident as reasons for remaining silent. The main reason for not reporting a sexual assault to the police is fear of reprisal or the fact that they consider the event a private matter. For more information and tips for talking with survivors of sexual assault go to www.rainn.org/ articles/tips-talking-survivors-sexual-assault or contact Community Referral Agency, a temporary shelter for survivors of sexual assault or domestic violence and their families located in Milltown, at crashelter.org. “Healthy Minute” is brought to you by healthyburnett.org.

WEEKLY WAG
Red-winged blackbirds EMILY M. STONE NATURALIST/EDUCATION DIRECTOR AT THE CABLE NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM
When springtime starts with persistent ice, gray skies, and tepid weather, it’s hard to get excited about the season. So, I did what a lot of folks do: I went south. The drive down to Stevens Point was like traveling into the future. Bare fields stretched out languidly in the sunshine, migrating ducks paddled on puddles, and snow had retreated into the shadows. Back home, snow and ice still covered most surfaces and just a few new birds had arrived. Perhaps the most exciting part of my drive was the end, when I stepped out onto the muddy parking area at the Central Wisconsin Environmental Station and heard the loud, rattling, trumpeting call of a sandhill crane. The thrill that went up my spine is quite different from the warm waves of happiness induced by a chickadee’s “hey sweetie” love song. And somewhere

Red-winged blackbird males only go as far south as they need to in order to find food. Their ringing call is one of the first true signs of spring.
in the middle of those two is the joy of hearing the first ringing konk-la-ree call of a red-winged blackbird with its energetic trill at the end. All of those sounds echoed through the pines, and I couldn’t help but smile. Red-winged blackbirds are true harbingers of spring. While they are year-round residents in much of their range, which stretches from the Yukon down to the Yucatan, the northern breeders must migrate far enough south to find crop stubble with waste grain and weed seeds not buried by snow. They gather in large flocks of as many as several million birds, and fly up to 50 miles each day from the roost to foraging grounds. For red-winged blackbirds in the Great Lakes region, this generally means about a 700-mile trip. That’s not far in comparison to our “neotropical” migrants like hummingbirds, flycatchers, thrushes, and warblers, who fly thousands of miles to overwinter in
Central and South America. Those birds are nectar or insect specialists, and can’t eke out a winter survival on seeds alone. One advantage staying in the neighborhood gives red-winged blackbirds is that they have a better idea of how this particular spring is progressing, and can adjust their migration schedule based on weather. Neotropical migrants have no way to tell that spring is coming early in the north, so they stick to more stable cues—like day length—to decide when to migrate. Weather still affects their progress, since a winter storm or unfavorable winds can cause a delay, but their timing tends to be more consistent. As a side note, robins can subsist on frozen fruits and berries that are held up above the snow. A number of them stick around each winter, farther north than might be expected. Because robins could be seen weathering out a January blizzard in an orchard, they are not the best indicator that spring is on its way. Red-winged blackbird males overwinter even closer to home than the females, because they have good reason to get back north as early as possible. The first male often gets the best territory, and it’s their gloom-piercing call that seals the deal. Belligerent males display in a “song spread” that includes fluffing up feathers, spreading their tail, raising their shoulders, and flashing their red epaulets, all while singing at the top of their lungs. We may appreciate this colorful performance, but it is not friendly, and it is not for us. While the adventurous males who are leading the charge north are not on territories yet, they are already singing loudly—warming up for the big show. Drab, brown females will follow later, after insects begin to hatch. The ladies need a high-protein, high-calcium diet to prepare for egg laying, and have no reason to risk getting caught in a blizzard. Once they arrive, females will choose a male’s territory, and set up a smaller territory within it. As many as 15 females might nest in a single male’s territory, but the average is five. Nests are built low to the ground, and are suspended among some upright stems of marsh plants. Females wind stringy plant material, wet leaves, and decayed wood into a bowl, then line it with soft, dry grass. My trip south was short, but I brought a little bit of spring home with me. As I stepped out of my car in the Museum’s parking lot, the first sound that greeted me was a ringing konk-la-ree. Maybe the warmth of that song will help melt our ice. Emily’s second book, Natural Connections: Dreaming of an Elfin Skimmer, is now available to purchase at www.cablemuseum.org/books and will soon be available at your local independent bookstore, too.

Looking for a pal that shares your love of the outdoors? HSBC has two young guys who fit the bill. If you are looking for a year-round workout buddy, two-year-old Kybo is ready for action. This Alaskan Husky mix has a sshort brown and tan coat, sstunning gold eyes, and is a around 60 pounds. Kybo iis a quick learner – in tthe past few months, he h has mastered presenting a calm, quiet face at the k kennel door. He is as happ py on the couch as on the ttrail – he just wants to be n near his people. Kybo is h hoping to catch the right Kybo eye this time around and move on to fun things. Cody and his big, brown puppy eyes and huge ears are certainly hard to resist. This black and tan, seven-month-old Doberman/Coonhound mix is a gentle guy who is a lot of fun to have around. Cody is only about 40 pounds and will probably end up a medium-sized adult. He loves to play and is food-motivated, so you will both have fun learning new things. Cody is great with kids and dogs, but will lavish his affection on anyone who stands still long enough. HSBC sees an increase in incoming strays as the weather warms up. Many times, these wanderers were not too far from home, but their collars didn’t have current contact information attached. They usually go home quickly, but it’s stressful for everyone involved – Cody who wants an unnecessary field trip to the shelter?

Tigers start off season with shut out win GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS
MAUSTON—“It felt great to get back outside on a ball field, even though it was a bit chilly,” said Tiger coach Jarrod Washburn following the Tigers’ 13-0 win over Independence-Gilmanton on Saturday. “First game we played Independence-Gilmanton who is ranked #8 in the preseason coaches poll. The boys came out and played great right from the start, scoring six runs in the top of the first, followed by seven in the second inning off some solid pitching. Every kid in the lineup had quality at bats, which was great to see this early in the season.” A three-run home run by Hunter Rosenbaum was the highlight of the first inning. Two walks, two singles, and a hit batsmen along with the homer got the six runs across.
Tiger boys fourth, girls seventh at UW-Superior meet GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS
SUPERIOR—The Webster Tigers opened their 2019 track campaign with an invitational meet at the UW-Superior campus last Friday. The Tiger boys placed fourth, behind Ashland, Superior, and Hayward. The girls were seventh with Hayward, Ashland, and Northwestern going 1-2-3. Then it was Superior, Shell Lake, and Moose Lake/Willow River just in front of the girls. Although there were no first place finishes for the boys, Jack Washburn and Tristan Benjamin picked up second placements in the triple jump and shot put respectively. The 4x400 meter relay team (Abbas, Stubbe, Glienke, Doriott) grabbed a third place finish. Fourth place finishes recorded by Hunter Erickson (1600 meter run), Carter Doriott (800 meter run), and Washburn (long jump), along with the 4x800 meter relay team (Janssen, Stubbe, Erickson, Doriott). In fifth place were the 4x200 relay team (Glienke, Abbas, Washburn, Ashworth), Ethan Ashworth (200 meter dash), and Erickson (3200 meter run). The girls had one third place finisher in Sam Nelson (800 meter run). They also had three fourth placements in Jeni Petersen (long jump), Nelson (3200 meter run), and the 4x400 meter relay (Olson, Gomulak, Doriott, Nelson). The Tigers will have performed at Ashland on Tuesday, and their next meet is April 9 at Spooner.
In inning two, Rosenbaum got two additional RBIs with a triple, and Trevor Gustafson followed with a two run home run. Gustafson was three for three at the plate, Jack Washburn two for two, and Rosenbaum ended up two for three. “Obviously,” continued Coach Washburn, “the big story of game one was Jack on the mound. He was as dominant as I’ve seen him, throwing a no-hitter and striking out 14 of the 15 outs for the game. The only out that came on a non strikeout was him picking off a kid he had walked, so he didn’t allow one ball to be put in play the entire game, very impressive against one of the top D4 teams in the state.” EUGENE SIKORSKI | SENTINEL
Jack Washburn threw a no-hitter with 14 strikeouts in the Tigers’ win over Independence-Gilmanton on Saturday.

na McNally started things off with a walk, and this time it was Emma Quimby who sent a shot over the fence to score two and bring her team within two. Brooke Quimby pounded out a double to get into scoring position. Tooze walked, as did Hoffman. Jada Hecht pounded out a two-run single to tie the game at 9-9 at the end of four. The Chieftains scored one in the top of the fifth to retake the lead. But it wouldn’t last long as the Pirates took their first lead of the game in their half of the inning when Susan Roberts reached on a single. She was followed by Brooke Quimby who cranked the ball over the fence for a two-run homer to put her Pirates up 11-10. Grantsburg’s defense stood strong in the sixth to hold the lead. The Chiefs had the bases loaded with two outs when a batter hit a line drive that was caught by McNally in center field to end the inning. The Pirates added three runs in the bottom of the sixth to take a 14-10 lead, and then held Osceola to just two runs in the top half of the seventh to hang on to the 14-12 win. For the game, cousins Emma and Brooke Quimby led the charge with three hits each followed by Hoffman with two. Roberts, Tooze, and Hecht had one hit apiece. In the circle, Hoffman got the win. She pitched six innings, striking out six, and allowing seven hits. Savanna Trittelwitz threw for one inning, striking out one while allowing three hits.

GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS
GRANTSBURG—The Grantsburg Pirates tallied another win in this young season with a hard fought 7-6 victory over Turtle Lake/Clayton on Monday night. The big bats of the Pirates continue as they racked up 16 hits for the game, including two home runs. Brooke Quimby and Rylee Hoffman both put one over the fence in the third inning. This is the second home run for both batters this season. TL/C put one across in the top half of the first inning to take an early 1-0 lead. That lead didn’t last long as the Pirates scored two in their half of the inning on an inside-the-park home run by Rachel Tooze, which scored Brooke Quimby as well, on a series of throwing errors by TL/C. TL/C added two runs in the second inning to regain the lead and were able to hold off the Pirates offensively. In the top of the third inning, the Pirates shut down the visiting squad behind the fielding of shortstop Brooke Quimby, who had her hand in all three outs. Quimby continued her hot streak as she was first to step to the plate in the bottom of the inning. She sent the very first pitch sailing over the left field fence to tie the game

TL/C tied it up, 5-5, in the fifth inning before taking a 6-5 lead over the hometown girls in the top of the seventh. The Pirates rallied back in the bottom of the seventh. With two outs, Bell Quimby belted out a double to get into scoring position. Jenna McNally singled, scoring Quimby to tie the game. Emma Quimby walked, and Susan Roberts smacked a hard shot back
to the pitcher who was not able to handle it, allowing McNally to score for the win. Hoffman went the distance in the circle for the Pirates, striking out four.

MAUSTON—Hunter Rosenbaum and Owen Washburn threw five innings and shut out Eau Claire Regis 17-0 in the second game for Webster at Mauston on Saturday. “Our second game, we played Eau Claire Regis who is always a tough team, and is ranked 18th in the state in the D3 coaches poll,” voiced Coach Jarrod Washburn. “Once again our bats came out red hot and gave us a big early lead, putting up five runs in the first. Jumping on teams early is really big and I’m very happy with our guys coming out of the gates fast.” Back-to-back doubles by Owen Washburn and Jack Washburn got the first two of five first inning runs across. Singles, hit batsmen, and a double by Hunter Rosenbaum were contributions in inning two towards the seven runs scored. “The offense didn’t stop there and kept putting the pressure on,” continued the coach. “Pitching was once again very good as Hunter got the start and was very sharp. Owen came in for a couple after him and also looked very good, so it was great seeing our top three arms looking so good this early. They should only get better as they get in better baseball shape. It should be fun to watch. “Our defense didn’t get tested much, but I did see some things we will need to get better at and work on. Hopefully the fields up north dry up soon so we can clean that up. Offensively, we looked very good, every kid in the lineup, so I’m happy to see that. “I am extremely proud of how our guys have started this season. It’s easy to see they’re not just going through the motions and thinking this season will be easy. They’re focused, driven, and determined to repeat, and it should be a fun year for us.” After playing at St. Croix Falls on Tuesday, the Tigers host Shell Lake on Thursday, and travel to Unity next Tuesday.

Ed Fallone announces run for Wisconsin Supreme Court in 2020 SCOTT BAUER ASSOCIATED PRESS
MADISON—Ed Fallone, a Marquette University Law School professor who unsuccessfully ran for the Wisconsin Supreme Court in 2013, announced last Wednesday that he will try again in 2020, when majority control of the court could be at stake. Fallone, who was backed by Democrats during his previous run, announced his candidacy during an interview with The Associated Press a full year before the election and just six days before another Supreme Court election. Fallone said he has been telling friends and supporters about his intention to run and wanted to get an early start. He’s the first candidate to officially declare he’s running for the seat currently held by conservative Justice Dan Kelly. Tuesday’s election pits state appeals court judges Lisa Neubauer and Brian Hagedorn against one another in a race to replace retiring Justice Shirley Abrahamson.
Kelly, who was appointed by thenGov. Scott Walker in 2016, has not said whether he intends to run. He did not immediately return a message left with a spokesman for the court. The court is currently controlled 4-3 by conservatives. A win by Neubauer, who is backed by liberals, would put majority control of the court in play in the 2020 race. Fallone pledged to raise issues during the race but to not take partisan political positions. “I’m not going to run a ‘safe’ race,” Fallone said. “Voters will know where I stand.” That said, Fallone tried to distance himself from the politics at play. “I’m very much against the view that our courts are political prizes to be won by either political party or any sort of partisan ideology,” he said. The most important issue is whether a judge will be a “person of courage and integrity” who is “willing to speak their mind” even if it will dissatisfy friends and supporters, Fallone said.
UNSCRAMBLE THESE SPRING WORDS FOR A CHANCE TO WIN! The participating sponsors on this page will be giving away a ham gift certificate to every winner. See complete rules on pg. 19!
If successful, Fallone would be the first candidate elected to the Supreme Court who is not a sitting judge in nearly 40 years. There have been numerous people appointed to the court who were not judges at the time, including Kelly. But the last non-judge who successfully ran was William Bablitch, in 1983. Fallone has been at Marquette for 27 years and prior to that worked as an attorney specializing in civil and business law. He hasn’t argued a case in a Wisconsin courtroom, a fact that Fallone said doesn’t think should factor against him. “It’s not been my bread and butter,” he said of being a trial court attorney. The Supreme Court is an appellate court, not a trial court, so Fallone said his experience would serve him well as a justice there. Fallone cited Kelly’s not having been a judge when asked about his own lack of judicial experience. Fallone said there’s a need for justices with a diversity of experiences, and his background in constitutional, administrative, corporate
and criminal law would give the court a “breadth of experience” it is lacking. He said a race against Kelly would be about Walker’s decision to appoint him, which Fallone called “an example of political cronyism at its worst. The state Supreme Court should not be a location that a governor can stock with political loyalists.” Fallone said he will also criticize Kelly’s record on the court, saying he’s overturned legal precedent unnecessarily, blocked efforts to reform rules for when judges recuse themselves from cases and opposed efforts to ensure that judges don’t sit on cases involving major campaign contributors. Fallone said he wants to talk about removing barriers to access to attorneys for lower income people who need assistance with the criminal justice system. If elected, Fallone would be the first Latino justice on the state Supreme Court. Fallone was backed by labor unions and Democrats during his 2013 run. He lost to Chief Justice Pat Roggensack, 57 percent to 43 percent.

Man pleads guilty to kidnapping Jayme Closs, killing parents STEVE KARNOWSKI ASSOCIATED PRESS
BARRON–– A Wisconsin man pleaded guilty Wednesday to kidnapping 13-year-old Jayme Closs and killing her parents, in a move that spares the girl held captive in a remote cabin for three months from the possible trauma of having to testify at his trial. Jake Patterson, 21, sniffled and his voice caught as he pleaded guilty to two counts of intentional homicide and one count of kidnapping. As part of a plea deal, prosecutors dropped a count of armed burglary. Patterson faces up to life in prison when he is sentenced May 24; Wisconsin does not have the death penalty. Patterson had said he would plead guilty in a letter sent last month to a Minneapolis TV station, saying he didn’t want the Closs family “to worry about a trial.” Patterson admitted kidnapping Jayme after killing her parents, James and Denise Closs, on Oct. 15 at the family’s home near Barron, about 90 miles northeast of Minneapolis. Jayme escaped in January, after 88 days in Patterson’s cabin in near the small, isolated town of

Authorities searched for Jayme for months and collected more than 3,500 tips. On Jan. 10, Jayme escaped from the cabin while Patterson was away. She then flagged down a woman who was out walking a dog and pleaded for help. Patterson was arrested minutes later. Patterson grew up in the cabin where he held Jayme. He wrote in his high school yearbook of plans to join the Marines after graduation, but he was kicked out barely a month after joining up. He worked just a single day at a turkey plant in 2016 before quitting; he told investigators he spotted Jayme while heading to work at a cheese factory where he already planned to quit after two days. The day Jayme escaped, Patterson had applied online for a job at a liquor store with a resume that misrepresented his experience. Laura Tancre, of nearby Star Prairie, said she was relieved by Patterson’s plea and “happy for the little girl.” Tancre, 57, worked at the same plant as Jayme’s parents and called them “very nice people.” “I think he should get life for killing both parents,” she said. “I’d hate for him to get out and be able to do it again.”

he plotted carefully, including wearing all-black clothing, putting stolen license plates on his car, and taking care to leave no fingerprints on his shotgun. Jayme told police that the night of the abduction, the family dog’s barking awoke her, and she went to wake up her parents as a car came up the driveway. While her father went to the front door, Jayme and her mother hid in the bathroom, clutching each other in the bathtub, with the shower curtain pulled shut. Patterson shot Jayme’s father as he entered the house, then found Jayme and her mother. He told detectives he wrapped tape around Jayme’s mouth and head, taped her hands behind her back, and taped her ankles together, then shot her mother in the head. He told police he dragged Jayme outside, threw her in the trunk of his car, and took her to his cabin, the complaint said. During Jayme’s time in captivity, Patterson forced her to hide under a bed when he had friends over and penned her in with tote boxes and weights, warning that if she moved, “bad things could happen to her.” He also turned up the radio so visitors couldn’t hear her, according to the complaint.

Gordon, some 60 miles from her home. The plea, coupled with an earlier decision by prosecutors not to bring charges in the county where Jayme was held, increases the chances that the details of her time in captivity will remain private. Patterson stoically answered “yes” and “yeah” to repeated questions from Barron County Judge James Babler about whether he understood what he was doing. Later, as he responded “guilty,” to each count, he could be heard sniffling. He paused for several seconds after the judge asked him about the kidnapping charge before stuttering, “guilty.” Defense attorney Richard Jones told Babler that Patterson “wanted to enter a plea from the day we met him” and brushed off strategies presented to him, including trying to suppress his statements to investigators. “He rejected all that and has decided this is what he wants to do,” Jones said. Members of the Closs family, and Patterson’s father and sister all left the courthouse without commenting. According to a criminal complaint, Patterson told authorities he decided Jayme “was the girl he was going to take” after he saw her getting on a school bus near her home. He told investigators

Wisconsin superintendent bans sexist cheerleading awards IVAN MORENO
MILWAUKEE—The superintendent of a Wisconsin high school district has outlawed cheerleading awards that objectify students’ bodies, and ordered mandatory staff training on discrimination and harassment. Dr. Sue Savaglio-Jarvis said in a letter last Monday to all principals and administrators in the Kenosha Unified School District that “mock awards of any such kind” are prohibited. “It is important for you to remember that student discrimination and harassment take many forms,” Savaglio-Jarvis said in the letter, specifically citing “awards given at a student athletic banquet.” The letter is a response to revelations last month that coaches at Tremper High School were annually giving awards to girls with the largest breasts or buttocks. The awards would have names like “Big Booty” and “Big Boobie” and were part of a banquet meant to honor the most improved or hardest-working cheerleaders. The high school said it would stop the awards after the details surfaced. But the superintendent’s letter is a district-wide order and warns faculty they will be disciplined or fired if they harass students or fail to report harassment. “It is imperative that you make clear to the faculty and staff, whom you supervise, that you will not tolerate actions that constitute student discrimination or harassment,” the letter said. The awards revelation followed a yearlong investigation by the American Civil Liberties Union in Wisconsin. It found the awards were handed out at a banquet attended by about 100 people, including coaches, family members, and friends of students. Eventually, parents and some staff complained, and Tremper Principal Steve Knecht launched an investigation, but said there was no evidence of wrongdoing. Knecht told a parent in a letter that the awards “were meant to be funny” and that the coaches were “just joking around.”
Lawsuit: School district failed to respond to abuse MILWAUKEE—A lawsuit filed by a former student against a suburban Milwaukee school district claims it did nothing to stop sexual abuse by a renowned math teacher more than three decades ago. The lawsuit filed Tuesday by Mark Bonchek says the Nicolet School District knowingly disregarded his calls for help. Bonchek, a Nicolet High School 1982 valedictorian, says teacher David Johnson repeatedly sexually assaulted him in the name of “research.” Bonchek, who went on to earn a Ph.D. from Harvard, says he still has psychological damage from the abuse. The 81-year-old Johnson committed suicide at his retirement home in Waupaca last year, just days after the district told alumni he had molested at least two boys. Ten more former students came forward in the following weeks to say they were also assaulted.

Which road to take?
PASTOR ROGER PITTMAN BETHANY LUTHERAN CHURCH
Lent brings us two questions that Jesus is asking: â&#x20AC;&#x153;who do you say I am,â&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;who do I (Jesus) say I am?â&#x20AC;? Jesus asked the first question of His disciples at Caesarea Philippi, and Peter replied that He was the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus then asked if they knew what that meant. When they had no answer, He explained that He had to go down to Jerusalem, be tried, be condemned, and die, but that He would rise again. Just a week later, Moses and Elijah met Jesus on a high mountain and told Him the time had come for all this to happen. During mid-week Lenten worship at
Pilgrim Lutheran (Frederic) and Bethany Lutheran (Siren), we are using borrowed highway signs to illustrate â&#x20AC;&#x153;milestonesâ&#x20AC;? on Jesusâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; way to the cross. One of the most important is the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tâ&#x20AC;? intersection. According to Luke 9:51, when Jesus came to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Tâ&#x20AC;?, He had to decide which way to go: to Jerusalem and the cross, or up to Galilee, telling stories, healing people, and feeding thousands. He chose to â&#x20AC;&#x153;turn His face to Jerusalem.â&#x20AC;? He knew that meant death, but He loved us so much, He went to the cross to forgive our sins and then rose to give us the assurance of eternal life. But, there is more to the story. He says to

Do we go with Jesus and learn from Him, or do we go the other way and miss the message of Good Friday and Easter? The road to Jerusalem leads to forgiveness, rebirth, peace, assurance, and stability in our lives. The other road goes in the opposite direction which leads us away from Jesus, joy, and love.

GRANTSBURG BASEBALL Coach(es): Pete Johnson, Ted Gerber, Adam Olson, Bryan Vilstrup. Roster: Seniors: Luke Anderson, Ben Johnson, Caleb Johnson, David Nelson. Juniors: Hunter Anderson, Ramsey Clark, Connor Detienne, Dane Jensen, Garrett Johnson, Thor Johnson, Brad Lucas, Dylan Miller, Parker Moorehead, Austin Wedin. Sophomores: Carter Johnson, Matt Kottke, Sterling McKinley, Anthony Simmons, Donovin Swanson. Freshmen: Logan Czech, Will Gerber, Keegan Hecht, Micah Jensen, Carson Knutson, Zach Miller, Isaac Quimby. Coach’s Comments: We look to continue practicing inside for another week or two. Inside practices can be very meaningful, but they take a lot of thought to put together. We try to keep the players moving most of the time and have groups rotating through stations. Grantsburg is fortunate to have veteran coaches who know their stuff, and all four coaches are relied upon to organize and run these stations. On decent days, we will sneak outside for a half hour to hit some fly balls on the blacktop, set up cut lines, and run a couple other drills. It seems like there is always one car parked in the middle of the lot, and we do our best not to nail it. Rotten spring weather means that the first day we are able to get outside, we will probably have a game. Think of that … the first day we step foot on a diamond is probably a conference game. Most everyone in the area will be in the same predicament. Some of the early games on the schedule will be made up later in the season, and that means a few weeks with four games. It’s important to have enough pitchers to get through those weeks. We are fortunate to have a dozen guys working on pitching right now and will probably call on everyone to get through the busy times. High end baseball uses analytics, high-tech assessment, and is always looking for the next, new thing. We don’t necessarily look for the newest trends, but we do keep our eyes open for new drills that might help teach basic skills. We have a pretty good idea of the ballplayers we get each year, because we’ve seen them grow up on our diamonds. It’s our job as coaches to help Grantsburg kids get as good as they can be, and play as a team. This job is made easier if we can have a little fun along the way. I’m grateful to have the boys practicing ball inside for a few weeks without grumbling. I’m grateful to their parents who put up with a constantly changing schedule due to weather. I’m grateful to the area coaches, who are good men that spend countless hours with their teams. I’m grateful to the district for providing diamonds, umpires, and buses. I’m grateful to Ted, Adam, and Bryan for coaching with me, and providing the Pirate team with much more than I could alone.
Good Luck!

Head Coach: Brad Nelson (boys) and Kim Hallberg (girls) Assistant/Volunteer Coach(es): Steph Berkholtz, Lisa McKinley. Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record/Highlights: Last year we sent three individuals to the state track meet, and all had great performances. They also set a few school records. We were very pleased with this, given our assignment to Division 2, as we were facing much larger schools during the tournament meets. Roster: Seniors: Eli Barber, Jordan Gaffney, David MacKean, Nate McKinley, Olivia Brock, Gracie Gerber, Linda Harmon, Kaitlin Olson, McKenzie Rombach, Madison St. Germaine. Juniors: Ben Berglund, Charlie Huehn, Austin Louis, Mirlande Brande, Shilo Covey, Lauren Hermann, Hope McKinley, Hannah Smestad, Alexis Troff.

Freshmen: Mason Arnold, Brody Bongaarts, Aiden Burkman, Chase Doornink, Aaron Gilhoi, Jordan Janes, Jonathan Peltier, Sarah Chenal, Alexis Slater.
Q: What and/or who will be the strengths of your team? A: Our team is smaller this year, which is an adjustment for us. We've been fortunate to have a large number of athletes the last few years. So this year we will really rely on our upperclassmen to provide leadership. We also have athletes who put in great performances last year that we look forward to advancing, and perhaps even breaking a couple more school records. Q: What are the keys for your team to have a successful season this spring? A: It's important for us now to really emphasize the team mentality, working together, and supporting each other. Q: What standards do you hold to as a coach? A: The biggest things for us are positivity and commitment. We really push athletes to always better themselves, to never be content with being consistent. We want to encourage improvement. But at the same time, it's so important that they remain positive about themselves and about others. Q: What do you like to see your athletes do in the off season? A: We like them to remain active. Many are in other sports, but we also encourage athletes to participate in weight-training programs at the school, or run in off-season races.
Good Luck, Track Athletes!

Q: What and/or who will be the strengths of your team? A.: We have a really nice group of upper classmen …they have great work ethic and dedication. Q: What are the keys for your team to have a successful season this spring? A: The weather, as always will be our biggest obstacle. We are really hoping to put together a string of meets so everyone has the opportunity to compete. Q: Describe a normal practice day schedule. A: We meet in the gym at 4:00, stretch as a team, bring it in and tell the joke of the day. Coach Howe explains the running work-outs and the distance and sprinters do their thing. I take the shot and discuss athletes. We run, lift weights, work on form and throw into the nets. Everyone with a field event works on that at the end of practice … then we stretch and go home!

Q: What have/will you do to provide team bonding? A: Rainy-day workouts are sometimes used for team bonding. Julia Cederberg will lead the team in a fierce game of “Squirrels and Trees” or Brennan Koball will lead us in a game of “Tag and Push-ups” or we play pickup games of volleyball or basketball. Q: What standards do you hold to as a coach? A: Our main goal has always been to make track fun and hope that the kids want to come to practice and back out again the following year. However, we also want to be competitive and of course represent Siren at the state meet. Track is a short season, so as coaches we emphasize work ethic and giving it 110 percent at each practice. Q: What do you like to see your athletes do in the off season? A: Of course any coach would want their athletes to remain active in the off season. Most distance kids run year round and most shot and discuss kids lift year round. I would encourage all my athletes to stay active and go out for other sports. Schedule Thu.

The ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; strengths will come from a large sophomore class that should have some contributors and newcomers that we are excited to see get out and run. Q: What are the keys for your team to have a successful season this spring? A: For this season, our goals are to just continue to get better and build a sustainable program. I would consider the season a success as long as we get some PRâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s and enjoy the chance to get out and run on the track. Q: Describe a normal practice day schedule. A: Team warm up, break into special groups, attack the day. Each day brings a different kind of activity that will be geared towards specific things for runners. Speed day, endurance day, specialty day etc. Q: What have/will you do to provide team bonding? A: We have some game/movie days. We have pool days and some group activities to try and build commrarderie.

GRANTSBURG GOLF
Head Coach: John Addison Assistant/Volunteer Coach(es): Eric Bergman Last Year’s Record/Highlights: Joey Duncan came within a few shots of qualifying for state. Dawson Roberts stepped up and was full time Varsity. Gus Bergman shot his personal best at sectionals. The team spent two weeks hitting racquetballs in the snow. Roster: Seniors: Justin Patterson, Bryce Roufs, Dawson Roberts, Luke Trittelwitz, Lane Johnson, Jared Lee, Joey Duncan. Juniors: Jared Patterson, Sam Turenne. Sophomores: Gus Bergman, Bruce Lindau. Freshman: Samuel Prusinski.
Q: What and/or who will be the strengths of your team? A: Jared Lee and Joey Duncan continue to be the biggest two strengths of the team and both deserve a lot of credit for how the team has preformed the last few years. However, I think our sense of humor and ability to get distracted by anything loud or shiny really sets us apart as a team. Q: What are the keys for your team to have a successful season this spring? A: We are really laying all of our hopes on the fact that we can play up to our ability this year, and that all the other teams in our conference neglected to get their childhood vaccinations. Q: Who do you see will provide the toughest competition in the Lakeland Conference? A: Luck/Frederic will probably be the favorites again? Unity and Grantsburg have really played each other tough the past few years. But I believe 2019 is the year of St. Croix Falls. Q: What have/will you do to provide team bonding? A: I try to buy team shirts that no one wants to wear. The kids really seem to be able to bond over that. Q: What do you like to see your golf athletes do in the off season? A: Study. Volunteer. Help their parents. Q: What is your favorite motivational quotation?
A: Off the course it is “Meaningless does not come from being weary of pain, meaningless comes from being weary of pleasure.” On the course it is, “Wow, that was not good.” Schedule: Thu.

A: We have a few golfers that have a lot of experience over the course of the last few seasons. It should help us during the season. Hopefully we can get some qualifiers to the sectional meet in Cumberland Q: What are the keys for your team to have a successful season this spring? A: Always improving throughout the season and staying focused. Golf can be a frustrating sport at times, so always getting better and keeping your cool is going to be important. Q: Who do you see will provide the toughest competition in the Lakeland Conference? A: Luck/Frederic is stacked. Hopefully they have another great season. Grantsburg is always tough as well. Q: What have/will you do to provide team bonding? A: Practices and trip to meets are always great times to bond as a team. The kids love telling stories on the way back after a good day of golf. Q: What do you like to see your golf athletes do in the off season? A: Golf and work on their game. Q: What is your favorite motivational quotation? A: “Golf is assuredly a mystifying game. It would seem that if a person has hit a golf ball correctly a thousand times, he should be able to duplicate the performance at will. But such is certainly not the case.” Ben Hogan
