Weekend storm waters continue to wreak havoc in Burnett County JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
BURNETT COUNTY –– On Monday afternoon the Radigan Flowage Dam west of Dairyland failed and caused flash flooding downstream on the Tamarack and St. Croix Rivers. This weekend brought excessive rain, thunderstorms, a tornado warning and road closures to Northwestern Wisconsin. Rivers are expected to crest by mid-week following heavy rainfalls from seven to 12 inches over the weekend in Burnett County.
INITIAL RESPONSE Burnett County Highway Commissioner Micheal Hoefs said , “Burnett County initially handled the heavy rains well.” He added there were a number of trees knocked down and some minor washouts, but said it was not nearly as bad as 2016. Hoefs was referring to the July 2016 torrential rainfall Burnett County received that led to boat landings being closed by the National Parks Service along the St. Croix River because the water level SEE STORM WATER, PAGE 2

TOWN OF SWISS––On Saturday, June 16, 2018 at 10:10 a.m. the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office received a report of a single-vehicle crash on State Highway 35 near County Highway H in the Town of Swiss. The driver, Savanna Bearheart, 16, of Siren was ejected from the vehicle and was pronounced dead at the scene by the Burnett County Medical Examiner. One adult passenger and two juvenile passengers were transported from the scene to area hospitals with what were believed to be non-life threatening injuries. No updates on any of their conditions were available at the time of this release. Initial investigation of this incident indicates that a 2003 Chevrolet Cavalier was southbound on STH 35 when the driver entered the ditch on the west side of the highway, overcorrected and entered the east ditch, overturning. The Wisconsin State Patrol, Danbury Fire Department and North Memorial Ambulance also responded to this incident. No further information will be released at this time; investigation and crash reconstruction continues by the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office.
County officially withdraws grants for potential campground in Swiss JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
GOVERNMENT CENTER –– After months of discussion the Natural Resources Committee has officially killed their proposal for setting up a county campground. The committee voted to not go forward with the project and instead will focus on promoting existing campgrounds. “Burnett County is not a commercial business,” said committee Chair and County Supervisor Ed Peterson. “Let’s have a vote to put this to rest. I say we officially withdraw our grants and deny the campground going forward.” The proposed campground was estimated to cost $1.2 million. The county had already applied for grants to cover the total cost of construction of the campground and Forest Administrator Jake Nichols said his department would have to travel [south] to interview

for the grants. “I don’t want us to go down there and fight for this if you all don’t want to go through with it,” Nichols said. The proposed location in the Town of Swiss was not favored by the town and they sent a letter to the committee earlier this year that stated their reasons. Among the reasons were noise complaints, added traffic and competing with private campgrounds. George Costello, Swiss Supervisor attended multiple meetings to voice his disapproval. “We already have numerous campgrounds in the county and some of those are expanding,” Costello said. “It doesn’t make sense for the county to continue with this project.” The larger issue with the campground facing the county was consistent maintenance and liability costs they would face down the line with the project.

was dangerously high. “The northern part of the county was hit the hardest. The biggest concern now is the rising rivers,” Hoefs said. “More closures will be coming as the water continues to drain from the northeast. We expect WisDOT and Mn/ DOT will jointly close the bridge on Wis STH 77/Mn 48 over the St. Croix sometime today (Monday) based on how events transpired in 2016,” Hoefs explained. There was a plethora of road closures throughout the weekend in Ashland, Bayfield, Douglas and Iron County. Specifically in Douglas County, Highway 35 near Pattison State Park and on US Highway 53 near Solon Springs. With the extreme rainfall in the upper portions of the St. Croix River Basin a flood warning remains active even though there is no expected precipitation over the next five days. Parts of the county near the St. Croix River were still susceptible to flooding on Monday morning. This includes parts of Grantsburg and the entire western border of the county. “We will be monitoring the water level closely at the STH 70 bridge west of Grantsburg as well,” Hoefs said. “The river is expected to crest there mid week.” The Highway department will also be watching bridges and roads in the northern part of the county. “Blaine Township seems to be in the worst condition as far as road closures and damages are concerned,” Hoefs said. “The worst is likely yet to come.” On Monday evening the Burnett County Emergency Management team released a statement announcing road closures in the Town of Blaine: • State Trunk Highway (STH) 35 at the St. Croix River Bridge is closed. • Highway 77/48 over the St. Croix River west of Danbury is closed. • St. Croix Trail at the St. Croix River bridge is closed. • Perkins Trail between Big McGraw Road and St. Croix Trail is

closed. North Markville Road is closed at the bridge approximately one mile west of STH 35. • Big Island Road is closed at the bridge over Hay Creek. • State Line Road is closed from the Burnett County Line to Stuart Road. • South Markville Road is closed from STH 35 to 1.5 miles west. “All closures are in the Town of Blaine. It is not advised to travel in the Town of Blaine until further notice,” the release stated. They also advised people hoping to use those roadways to stop at the Burnett County Emergency Management Reception Center within the Danbury Casino Conference Center. On Tuesday morning, an updated list expanded into western Burnett County: • State Highway 35 at Riverside is still closed. Flood waters need to recede about 2 feet before it is off the highway. • State Highway 35 in Danbury over the Yellow River was never closed. •
•
State Highway 77 over the St. Croix River at the Minnesota state line is closed indefinitely due to a long washed-out section of the highway on the Minnesota side. • State Highway 70 over the St. Croix River west of Grantsburg is not closed. The Wisconsin Department of Transportation (DOT) sent out a message saying they were closing the Highway 35 bridge in Danbury on Monday night, but on Tuesday morning they announced the bridge was not closed because the water level remained below the bridge throughout the evening. The Wisconsin DOT announced on Tuesday morning, “all westbound lanes on WIS 77 between WIS 35 and the State Line are closed due to flooding.” The Emergency Management Team also announced on Tuesday morning that all Burnett County ATV trails north and west of the St. Croix River are closed until further notice, including trails 118, 151, 925 and routes west of Dry Landing Road in Blaine. The team is continuing to assess the
rest of the trail system and are coordinating their efforts with neighboring and surrounding counties. People using open trails should do so with extreme caution as there are still washouts on the trails and trees may be down. Damage on the trails is being repaired by ATV club members and county staff. Gov. Scott Walker declared a state of emergency Monday afternoon before the Radigan Flowage Dam failed. “The state stands at the ready to assist local governments in recovery efforts,” Governor Walker said. “I have directed all state agencies to assist and called the Wisconsin National Guard to state active duty as Major General Dunbar deems necessary. I am touring the damages this evening with Major General Dunbar. We have confidence in our communities’ ability to come together and recover.” The National Weather Service (NWS) canceled a flash flood warning in Burnett County. According to the NWS, flooding on the Tamarack River is gradually receding and is no longer expected to pose a significant flash flood threat However, flooding is still occurring across Douglas, Burnett, and Pine counties. Tuesday afternoon the Emergency Management Team determined it was safe for families who voluntarily evacuated Danbury on Monday night to return to their homes. The team also announced well water kits are available for flood victims. “When in doubt, do not drink or use the water if the water is cloudy, colored or smells bad,” the statement says. Anyone looking for a test kit should contact Anna Treague, RN with Burnett County Public Health for more information at 715-349-7600. The Wisconsin DOT advises to check out https://511wi.gov for the most current closures and detours. They also would like to remind motorists to not drive through flooded roadways and to no drive around barricades. If there is water over the road the DOT says to turn around and report the conditions to local authorities.
RESOURCES: Siren Chamber of Commerce shows off series of cinematic tourism videos CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
County Supervisor Steve Austin, who is currently expanding his campground at Oak Ridge Inn in Webb Lake, said that this may be a project they could look into if the town of Blaine shows interest Since getting elected in April, Austin has said the estimated costs of the potential campground were way too high per site, and those bids would need to be evaluated if they go forward with the project in the future. TOURISM REPORT Siren Chamber of Commerce was awarded a tourism grant from the county last year and Chris Moeller, Executive Director of the Siren Chamber, came to the meeting to present a PowerPoint of what Siren Chamber has already done to improve tourism. Moeller has commissioned a Video Project Plan which consists of seven videos; four will be seasonal videos (winter, summer, 4th of July and Gandy Dancer Fly-In/Drive-In), there will also be a destination wedding video, and a “point of difference” video. The final video will be a consolidation of the best parts of the other six. All the videos, besides the consolidation, will be
around 30 to 60 seconds long. The consolidated video may run up to two minutes. The series of videos is being produced by James Netz. “We’re targeting baby boomers and their families with these videos and they are shot with more of a cinematic feel instead of a regular tourism video,” Moeller explained. “These videos are on Facebook and there we’re targeting residents in the Twin Cities, Eau Claire, the Twin Ports and Chicago.” The seasonal videos are already completed and were shown at the committee meeting. Committee members were impressed, but wanted to know why they were only seeing videos showing off Siren. “Emily (Gall) is working with Netz for the tourism coalition,” said County Supervisor Chuck Anderson of the Burnett County Tourism Coalition (BCTC). “It will be county-wide and the Siren Chamber has set the bar very high.” Gall is the marketing consultant for the Burnett County Tourism Coalition. She said she will have a better grasp on the project in the next 30 days.

On this date in history - Beatles conspiracy theory On this date in history in 1966 “Yesterday and Today” was released by the Beatles. The original cover (which sells for around $1,200 on eBay) features the musical mop-tops in white suits with toy dolls parts and chunks of beef strategically arranged among them. It is known as “the butcher cover.” It might seem strange, the image of a baby doll without its head attached resting on each of Sir Paul McCartney shoulders. The album was quickly pulled from American shelves (it was released by Capitol and therefore only on American shelves.) Sentinel McCartney said the album cover was the band’s commentary on the Editor Vietnam War and complained that Jonathan Richie critics “were soft.” John Lennon said the image was “as relevant as Vietnam.” However, George Harrison thought the photograph was gross and stupid. (Ringo Starr was probably just happy to still be in the band.) That may be what Lennon and McCartney thought and said about the cover, but what if it is more a symbol for the album itself? This was right as The Beatles were hitting their stride. In 1965 the fab four released Rubber Soul, then Revolver in ‘66 and then Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band the following year. This stretch of albums would solidify them in the pantheons of Rock ‘n’ Roll. “Yesterday and Today” was a way for Capitol Records to make money while they waited for Revolver to be released in August of ‘66. Capitol took what they believed to be the best track from Rubber Soul, some early mixes of Revolver songs and various singles the group recorded such as “We Can Work it Out.” They were all jammed onto this money-making effort willy-nilly. My theory is the image of the “butcher cover” was actually a statement on the music business as well as the war. The Beatles saw money-hungry record executives taking perfectly constructed albums and singles (baby dolls) tore them apart (baby parts) and released under their name simply as a way to make money off of them. That’s my theory and I’m sticking to it. Also, On this date in history. In 1782, Congress approved the Great Seal of The United States, featuring the emblem of the bald eagle. It can still be seen on the back of the $1 bill. In 1967, Muhammed Ali, after refusing to be drafted, was convicted in Houston of violating Selective Service laws. He was sentenced to five years in prison, but the Supreme Court ultimately overturned the conviction. Lastly, it’s Lionel Richie’s birthday, who may or may not be a distant uncle of mine.

Remembering Bobby As this year has progressed, the commemoration of the events of 1968 have become more frequent. If you were looking for a year that could have marked the coming apart of our nation, 1968 would have fit the bill nicely. This month marks for me one of the most vivid memories I have of the year, the assassination of New York Senator Robert F. Kennedy. From the As I write this, Publisher’s I can recall, at Desk age seven, the anguish in my Tom Stangl home as the news h assassination i off the was heard. My parents, staunch German-Irish Catholic Democrats, had numerous photos of Pres. John F. Kennedy in our home and still were mourning the loss. I was two when JFK died, and can only remember being told to be quiet as I played in the next room while my parents watched the funeral on our Zenith black and white television. Bobby Kennedy, in my parents’ eyes and through them in my eyes, would be the one to bring sanity to the madness of 1968. Only Bobby would be smart enough, have the wisdom and the wonderful words to make everything “right” again.
Bobby was going to be an even better president than his brother. He cared about people, understood what needed to be done to heal the racial wounds of our nation, end the war in Vietnam and take the White House back from that interloper, Lyndon Baines Johnson, who my parents, until their dying days, believed was responsible for the violent death of JFK. Looking back as an adult, being able to form my own opinions, it is interesting to study RFK and listen to the observations of those who were young adults at the time. The “what ifs” about an RFK presidency are just as intriguing as the idea of a second term for his older brother. Would the war have ended sooner? Would racial tensions and wounds have healed? Would the war on poverty have been won? All fascinating questions, but all better left for historians to debate. I recall the fascination the nation had with Bobby during the summer of ‘68. His every action, every speech were scrutinized. He was a rock star. My one-year-old brother got a “Bobby Kennedy” haircut at the local barber shop, one of many that were given that summer. Kennedy helped keep a lid on simmering racial tensions with his eloquence after the murder of Martin Luther King, Jr. in the spring. He understood the problems and

actively sought to heal the wounds. A half century after his death, like his brother, there are people who believe that there were more persons involved in the assassination. Kennedy’s commitment to economic and social justice was a departure from his brother. Bobby learned the lessons of the civil rights movement and understood the need for opportunity for everyone. It seems silly to talk about this need for basic dignity and opportunity, but it has never gone away. For all of our work on poverty, it remains stronger than ever in the nation and the world. Perhaps the best way to remember RFK is for people to rededicate our society to social and economic justice. Too large a goal? How about doing what we can, where we are with what we have to make sure we stand up for justice? We all can do something, and if we do, we can do anything.

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.

A Newcomer, a Look Back, and the Road Ahead Senator Patty Schachtner
On my “first day,” I drove down to Madison thinking of the people across Senate District 10 who I had the responsibility to fight for. While I was not officially sworn in until mid-February, I was excited to roll up my sleeves and get to work. I have helped people all my life - as a first responder, health care provider, and medical Patty examiner - and Schachtner I was ready to serve the comDistrict 10 munities of Senator northwestern Wisconsin. Getting Situated In a legislative office, my duties extend to policy, communications, and what we call constituent relations. Constituent relations includes everything from responding to questions and helping people navigate state government to honoring community members with proclamations. My first objective was to surround myself with an experienced team that would hit the ground running. My next objective was to familiarize myself with upcoming bills and the history behind them.
LEGISLATIVE WORK I had the opportunity to participate in a few hearings for the three committees I was assigned to: the Senate Committee on Agriculture, Small Business, and Tourism, the Senate Committee on Sporting Heritage, Mining, and Forestry, and the Senate Committee on Universities and Technical Colleges. I voted on appointments, heard testimony on committee bills, and voted some bills out of committee. On the Senate floor, I voted on close to 200 bills through two long session dates. While it was exciting to be in this space, I was surprised at the lack of notice and communication that occurs between senators about the bills we are expected to review and vote on. I remember during the March session, we were asked to vote on over 120 bills. Changes were still being made to the calendar’s bills just hours before we were expected to vote. In the case of
school safety legislation that provided one-time grants to school districts for safety upgrades, the proposal was attached to a bill about Tuberculosis screening. It was drafted without ever consulting Democratic members. While I supported the bill, I think we could have made it even better by making the grants available to all school districts, not just the applicants chosen by the Wisconsin Department of Justice, and by ensuring funding continues into future years. I think everyone benefits when we all have a seat at the table. After all, is that not the purpose of gathering us in Madison – to discuss and decide what works for our communities? I also had the opportunity to work with colleagues and introduce a few bills before session ended. One bill provided UW System students who have experienced sexual assault with reasonable accommodations, such as help changing dorms or meeting academic commitments, at no cost to them. Another would have provided state grants for school Science Olympiad teams. Over the summer, I will be the vice chair of the Legislative Council Study Committee on the Identification and Management of Dyslexia. The committee brings together legislators, school administrators, parents, and issue-area experts to discuss best-practices relating to dyslexia screening and interventions. COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT As a state senator, I have also made community engagement my priority. Since being elected in mid-January, I have participated in 158 meetings and community events, including five listening sessions and holding office hours in Polk, Dunn, and St. Croix counties. These meetings include sitting down with local businesses, local government officials, and community members. Events include speaking at school graduations, attending suicide prevention walks, and honoring members of our community like Eagle Scouts, teachers, and small business owners. MOVING FORWARD Northwestern Wisconsin is full of beauty and potential. Just like a plant that needs sunlight to grow, we need to shine a light on

Darrald Doriott was the lucky winner of the $1 bingo game. I did not hear how much he won. Virginia Martin turned 90 on Wednesday. Her family had a very nice party for her. They brought in a Dairy Queen cake for all of us to enjoy after playing 500. They also had a gift bag for all of us consisting of a cookie, a package of chips, a Snickers bar and a scratch-off lottery ticket. We enjoyed looking for the lucky numbers. I did not hear if anybody got a lucky number but it sure was fun. Thank you Martin family for including the seniors in the party. Hope all you fathers had a nice day even if the weather was not good for grilling. Our 500 winners were Michael Erickson, Tom Knopic, Sue Christensen, Lorna Erickson, and Susie Hughes. The bid was shared by Roger Greeley, and Steve Wenthe. Spade winners were John, Gerry Vogel, Mary Sicard, Marilyn Niles, and Arnie Borchert. Sue Newberger and Steve Wenthe shared the 9 bid.

stubborn areas where Wisconsin can do better. These include the areas of transportation, mental health, and substance abuse. Only 41 percent of Wisconsin’s state highways were rated in good condition or better in 2015, which is down from 54 percent in 2010. Additionally, a 2016 report conducted by the state Department of Transportation found that the number of highway miles rated in poor condition or worse would double by 2027 if funding stayed at 2015 – 2017 levels. Instead of investing more money into roads, the 2017 – 2019 budget cut funding for the highway rehabilitation program by $79 million, relative to the 2015 budget. Following the $4.5 billion state-taxpayer deal with Foxconn, a further $90 million was diverted from local road and highway projects to pay for Foxconn-related development. As a medical professional, I have also noticed that a failure to adequately address mental health and substance abuse is harming communities. A lack of regional hospital beds means that individuals suffering from a mental health emergency have to be transported to one of two state hospitals four hours away. The cost of each trip falls on the counties and local law enforcement agencies, creating significant budgetary impacts for more rural communities. Substance abuse is also a serious issue – notably the growing problem of meth. According to the Wisconsin Department of Justice, meth use has increased by 462 percent statewide between 2010 and 2017. The economic cost of meth is $424 million annually, partly due to child placement and removal services. Across the state, 7,300 children have been removed from homes due to drug addiction in the residence. The next legislative session will not begin until January 2019. However, that does not mean I cannot get things done. Until then, I will continue to be engaged in the community, meet with local officials, and plan my legislative agenda. I look forward to working with my colleagues in the coming year. State Senator Patty Schachtner represents Wisconsin’s tenth senate district. The district covers parts of Burnett, Dunn, Pierce, Polk, and St. Croix counties.

Town of Scott residents voice concerns over opening roads to ATVs JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
BURNETT COUNTY –– County Supervisor Jeremy Gronski announced that they have reached an attendance record for the Infrastructure committee meeting last week. Most in attendance were there to explain their grievances with opening up some new segments for ATV/UTV traffic in the Town of Scott. Wood River and Jackson also applied for ATV/UTV route requests. Wood River’s request included three new segments on County Road D, two segments on County Road M and a single segment on County Road Y. Jackson’s request was denied for a segment on County Road A between Bushey Road and Moser Drive near the Crow Bar. Highway Commissioner Mike Hoefs said these decisions are made based on visibility of motorists and the roads traffic volume. The traffic is measured during a typical week by surveying boxes that determine the average amount of traffic that uses a designated section of road. “That section of A in Jackson has a high traffic volume. It has over 1,400 vehicles a day on this stretch,” Hoefs stated. “From a feasibility standpoint over 1,000 vehicles a day should exclude a segment for being opened up for ATV or UTV traffic.” The Town of Scott applied to open up sections multiple segments for ATV/UTV use on County Roads A and H. The applications stated that the purpose of opening these segments of road is so riders can access local businesses. County Supervisor Gary Lundberg began the public comments with cited a referendum the Town of Scott voted on to open up all the roads for ATV/UTV usage. It was a 60/40 split for not opening the roads. He also said that the Town Supervisors voted to open up these roads. Lundberg was followed by numerous Scott residents some full-time and some seasonal all, but one saying the same message – the long-time residents don’t want to take a backseats to the the wants of ATV riders. Karen Wiggins said that in the November 2013 referendum 163 residents voted in favor and 240 voted against. Wiggins also cited a town-wide survey that included emails, letters, and an online survey and she said the results were 25.7 percent for more ATV trails and 74.3 percent against. Another person said the sheriff’s department will be inundated with calls about violations with ATVs. After hearing all of the public comments, committee Chair and County Supervisor Jeremy Gronski thanked the residents for their input and said it’s an important part of the democratic process. “It’s obvious there is some internal conflict here with the Town between the current town board and the res-
idents,” Gronski said. “But the policy has been written by the board and approved.” The motion, to open up the segments the Scott Board applied for, was first made by County Supervisor Duane Johnson. Johnson added, “I’m a firm believer in local government control and the Town of Scott board approved and sent in this application.” Siren Police Chief Chris Sybers who is vice-chair of the Infrastructure committee had a single issue with the motion and that was one segment on Swiss Trail Road. He said there is no ditch on the right-hand side, and it is a real sharp turn. Johnson’s motion was amended to not allow that segment to open and went through with a single opposing vote. The approved segments will now go forward and the discussion and possible approval will go to the full county board. That meeting will be held on Thursday, June 21. On all applications at the bottom there is a designated space for recommendations from the municipality, the highway commissioner, the Sheriff’s Department and the infrastructure committee. The committee was disappointed to find out that the Sheriff’s Department did not make a recommendation on any of the applications and left the spot blank. AIRPORT REPORT Chuck Shultz, who is in charge of airport operations, started his monthly report with a recap of Siren Nationals which was held at the county airport on May 12. “We had 88 registered drivers for the radar run and 43 cars in the car show,” Schulz said. “This year we held the swap meet and that went OK for the first time.” Schultz said the event had somewhere between 700 and 750 spectators which is by far the largest group since they have been having the event. He added they are planning on adding some things for kids for Siren Nationals in the fall, which will take place on Sept. 15. Schultz said fuel sales have been great for 100 low lead, selling almost 10,000 last month. “Some of that is from DNR planes for wildfires, and it’s about double our monthly average,” Schultz said. IN OTHER ITEMS: Gary Faught Maintenance Supervisor gave his monthly report and said his budget is in good shape for this time of year. He also said they had an issue with the air conditioning in the dispatch center in the jail. “I felt bad we could only run at 50 percent,” Faught said. “But it was Memorial Weekend and we had to wait to get the part to fix the problem.” He also said they have contracted wiyh Austin Lake greenhouse and landscaping to “rework the front of the building.” This will include widening the edging with new material and taking out some of the plants in front of the Government Center.
A Living History Fur Trade Experience
Village joins ‘consortium’ JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
WEBSTER –– The Webster Village Board has approved joining a “consortium” for buying a water-valve saw that will include a possible four other municipalities. The village was approached about going in on a group purchase of a water-valve saw with Grantsburg, Frederic, Luck and possibly St. Croix Falls. Initially the board was planning to wait for the July meeting when Jay Heyer could further explain it but Trustee Kelsey Gustafson explained it to the board. He said that traditionally when a water main breaks the entire area, usually involving a roadway, has to be dug up around it and then it can be replaced. This device would allow the village to make a very minimal hole to replace the water main. Gustafson stated it would cost the Village somewhere between $600-$800 to go in on the group purchase for the water-valve saw. The total cost is $3,500 “I say we join the consortium,” announced Trustee Tim Maloney. The motion carried. Gustafson also had an update for paving Bass Avenue. He stated that asphalt prices for county and village roads specifications won’t be affected by increasing oil prices following the Husky Oil Refinery Explosion last month. “We were a bit early thinking the prices were going to go up,” Gustafson said. “The bid might actually be less now. The state specs for asphalt went up, but not for county and village roads.” That project is expected to be done by the end of the summer. The cost of the project was not announced at the meeting. Kevin Janssen was in attendance and asked the board about selling golf carts to citizens of Webster. The board was not sure if there was anything in the Village ordinances about golf carts on roads. Chief Wedin assured the board that although it may or may not be in the ordinances, it is illegal to drive golf carts on village roads. Kevin said that he knows of other communities that use golf carts on roads and are operated as slow-moving vehicles with proper signage on the cart. “If they don’t ruin golf courses, they are not going to have much affect on asphalt,” Janssen explained. Members of the board then brought up other issues that could arise such as disrupting the flow of traffic because golf carts maximum speed is around 15 mph. The board told Janssen they would look into the issue.

STEVE JOHNSON RESIGNS The Board accepted with thanks on behalf of the District the resignation of Steve Johnson. Johnson, a GHS graduate, first began teaching at the Grantsburg School District in 1975. In his 43 years as mathematics teacher and coach, he touched the lives of many students and staff. Board member Jason Burkman remarked, “He coached me in football and he made a great impact.” High School Principal Josh Watt added, “It was an honor to have him working in the building and coaching for the middle school. He’s been outstanding in wisdom and support. He was one of the first people I observed as a new teacher here.” For the past five years, Johnson has served as a long-term substitute teacher and Response to Intervention(RTI) teacher in mathematics - helping students who struggle with a lesson or skill by using different approaches to learn material. From his resignation letter, read by Superintendent Burgin, Johnson stated he wanted “to leave while it’s fun and exciting” and “I walk away content.”

Changing the curriculum in this way also allows the guidance counselor to be more available to interact with students on a one-toone basis. The Board approved this change. FISCAL MATTERS The fiscal year draws to a close on June 30. In preparation of their financial audit, which begins in July, Stotz and Company was granted a contract to assist the district with this venture. As a follow up to a decision made at the May 14 meeting, Business Affairs Administrative Assistant Kerri Oachs reported that the district has paid off their debt service balance and is currently debt free. This loan had scheduled payments until October 2018.

Baseball team thanks board, presents State trophy JONATHAN RICHIE EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM
WEBSTER ––The baseball State Champions were in attendance at the June school board meeting this week to show off their trophy and thank the board for all their support this year. “On to audience recognition, we will now recognize these guys in orange,” School Board President Mark Elliot said of the Webster baseball team. “Go grab the trophy,” Coach Jarrod Washburn said to one of the champions. Washburn then led his team in thanking the school board for their flexibility with the teams schedule. “We had a great season and I just want to thank you all on this board, our fans and this great group of supporters we have,” Washburn said. He added the team has two players who made the Academic all state team and that most, if not all, the players on the team were given some sort of individual award throughout the season. “Those awards are numerous for this team, but the most important is the team award,” Washburn said. After presenting the state trophy the IMC erupted in quite the applause for the young men of the baseball team. As the students were leaving Washburn told the board, “now they’re going to go to open gym and get ready for basketball season.” Elliot commended all spring sports for their patience. “It was really something for these coaches and athletes to cram an entire season into four or six weeks,” Elliot said. “We also should take time to congratulate the track team for winning conference.”
JONATHAN RICHIE | SENTINEL
Webster baseball coach Jarrod Washburn with the State Champs brought their new trophy to show off in front of the school board. Washburn said, “pretty much everyone on our team has been awarded an individual honor at some point this season, but the team award -this one- is the most important.”
ACHIEVEMENT GAP REPORT Elementary School Principal Martha Anderson explained to the board the Achievement Gap Report . The report uses data to close the gap between groups in subjects like reading and math. Anderson said the biggest struggles in the state of Wisconsin and in Webster is with students in special education and Native Americans. “This data helps us find out if we’re closing the gap so that all students are learning or is it getting wider,” Anderson said. “I set goals school wide to increase math and reading scores by 10 percent.” The report shows that in grades K-4 reading growth was 21.4 percent and math was increased by 14.6 percent. COMMUNITY EDUCATION UPDATE Jennifer Swanson, Director of Communities United in Education (CUE), gave the school board an update on what they’re doing for the summer and how there catalog as well as there registered participants is increasing. Communities United in Education Siren Webster has three catalogs; summer, fall and winter/spring. They offer 137

courses and last year had over 900 registrations for classes with 244 registrations of youth students (under the age of 16.) 57 online webinar courses are also available. Swanson said that during the 2014-15 year they had 691 registrations and for 2017-18 they
had 935 registrations. “We’ve had to add more classes and have made the courses more available or everyone,” Swanson said. “We have tried some new things and added some technology courses and that’s how that registrations went up.” Swanson continued to spotlight certain students and classes like the Starwatch party, which this year had to be held inside because of a snowstorm outside. “We had 57 participants inside the cafetorium looking at these slides and images of stars,” Swanson said. Other classes offered are pottery and bookkeeping. They also offer pickleball and a full moon canoe, which is in their summer catalog. “We also have a Kid’s Valentine Cake course where kids can learn how to decorate cakes,” Swanson said. “My daughter took that course and it was really great to see my six-year old learning to decorate cakes, because she wants to own a bakery.” For more information on community education courses, go to cueclass.com
APPROVAL OF FEES The board approved raising the lunch prices ten cents. The increase comes from a recommendation from the Department of Public Instruction. K-4 lunch will now be $2.05, 5-12 - $2.25, adult price will be $3.10 and breakfast will cost $1.10. Melanie Johnson pointed out that it doesn’t make sense to raise costs for lunch when this year food commodity prices went down. Wendy Larson also raised her concern with raising lunch prices. “You all know where I stand on this topic,” Larson began. “I feel that raising the price of lunch only hurts the families in our schools.” The board also approved fees for lockers and parking permits, both $5. Driver’s education class for residents will remain $100 and for non-residents it will be $200. “We have seen an increase in non-residents taking our driver’s ed course in the summer so we’ve decided they will pay $200,” Superintendent Jim Erickson said. The fees were approved by the board with a single opposing vote.

IN OTHER ITEMS: Erickson gave the board a recap of the annual Tribal Education meeting. He said they are looking into holding an open house at the Community Center in Danbury at the beginning of the year to stress the importance of attendance. The open house would also strengthen the relationship between the community and the school. The Principals all gave their respective reports on how summer school is going. The board accepted and approved the retirement of Elementary school teacher Terry Day.

Who takes care of the cops? LINDA LUHMAN SENTINEL STAFF
GRANTSBURG—There was a little bit of undercover work going on at the Grantsburg Animal Hospital on Thursday, June 14. An operation a month in the making culminated in a contact with the subject, Dr. Gregory Palmquist, Palmquist, a veterinarian at Grantsburg Animal Hospital, had been told he was going to see Burnett County Sheriff’s Department’s K9 Deputy, Tracker, for an injury to his foot along with a routine vaccination. This wasn’t entirely accurate – Tracker only needed the shot. Skipping over the plot-building and cutting straight to the end, Deputy Mitch Olson and Tracker got their man, presenting him with a plaque in appreciation for the work Dr. Greg and his team have done for them. Deputy Tracker is a 2.5 year old German Shepherd Dog who was born in Slovakia. He is considered a dual purpose canine officer, trained to detect illegal drug odor and to do patrol work. Supported by the tireless efforts of the Burnett County Law Enforcement Citizen’s Auxiliary. Tracker and Olson have been very busy since Tracker’s deployment with the Sheriff’s Department in January of 2017. As a working dog, Tracker needs to be in top physical form. Any injuries need to be assessed and dealt with quickly and correctly. Like any dog, he also needs routine health care. That’s where Dr. Greg comes in. The Grantsburg Animal Hospital has been taking care of Tracker’s health needs since he joined the Sheriff’s Department. Both Olson and Lisa Slater of the Auxiliary said they appreciate the support they get from the vet clinic and consider them a crucial part of Tracker’s team. Tracker is their celebrity client, with a binder full of photos and several clippings adorning the wall over the animal scale (presumably where all the other dogs can see them). The staff makes a fuss over him as he walks through the door and over to the scale. As the men stand for photos, Tracker is too busy looking at the staff to look at the camera. It’s in the exam room that Tracker shows signs of being just another dog. He sticks tight to Olson and drops his tail slightly, trying to look insignificant. Tracker stands patiently while Dr. Greg listens to his heart and lungs and even gets in a quick lick to Dr. Greg’s face. Palmquist and Olson discuss Tracker’s weight and ears – both with good news. After a quick vaccination (that he pretends to ignore), Tracker knows he’s done and turns to leave as fast as Olson will allow. Once he’s in the lobby, Tracker drops back into his “cop face,” – calm, collected, watchful – even as he jumps up on the counter to greet his fans and receive some adoration. Then it’s off to the rest of their day. Because crime never sleeps.
‘Tracker is their celebrity client, with a binder full of photos and several clippings adorning the wall over the animal scale.’

United Methodist Churches serve up a bit of the old country LINDA LUHMAN SENTINEL STAFF
If you were in the vicinity of the Siren United Methodist Church on Friday, June 7, you couldn’t help but smell that they were cooking up something good. Since 2008, the church has been hosting an authentic German dinner, and they were just putting the finishing touches on a glorious meal. “We’ve been here since about 9 a.m. and we’ll be here until it’s over,” said Carol Titel. Titel was multi-tasking, setting up coffee urns before turning to the task of making gravy. She shared the members had also been busy setting up since Thursday, resulting in pristine white tablecloths with place settings and small German and American flag centerpieces.. There were six to eight ladies involved in the preparation of traditional dishes such as rotkohl(red cabbage), kartoffelsalat(potato salad), rutabaga, and pork roast with sauerkraut. The recipes were contributed from various members of the church, who grew up with these dishes and received the recipes from their own grandparents. That, however, can pose a challenge. “(The recipes) usually say, ‘Add a bit of this,’” Titel shares. Being Scandanavian, she admits she isn’t familiar with what the end-product is supposed to taste like. “So I had to call Shirley Bloom and ask

‘what is a bit?’” Ginger Baker, who was busy slicing pork roast to await Carol’s gravy, assured me that all would be well. “I taste test everything,” she says with a smile. The dinner began as a United Methodist Women’s fundraiser, but in recent years they have been looking for help. This year’s dinner is a joint venture. “The church is aging. We don’t have a lot of young people involved,” Titel said. “They are busy raising families or there isn’t an interest. About the time you get interested in the heri-
tage, you’re retired. This year it is an all-church fundraiser, and the men’s and children’s group are helping.” The German dinner expected to serve between 150 and 175 people. The menu is the same from year to year, but you should expect to arrive early. Baker shared a tip. “The time to be here is 4 p.m. when it’s fresh and hot.” Which turned out to not be much of a secret, as about 40 people were paid and patiently waiting for the meal service to start. And Carol: the gravy was perfect!

Concussions: my silent struggle SUE WILSON MA,. ATC/L., PES., CHHC CO-FOUNDER OF CTE-HOPE
For the last 18 years, I have stood in the trenches of college, high school and youth sports trying to protect and keep my athletes safe as a Certified and Licensed Athletic Trainer. I have seen and evaluated over 100 concussions and lost an athlete to heaven after his silent struggle in life due to repeated concussions. It is through my mental pain, guilt and determination that I have dedicated my time to Chronic Traumatic Encephalopathy (CTE). CTE Hope Foundation is a nonprofit and was established after my athlete, Zac Easter, 24, took his own life after journaling for years about the physical, mental and emotional pain that one endures after suffering multiple concussions. Zac wrote his life story as he started to decline. “After having more than five documented concussions and numerous more undocumented concussions, I [Zac] began suffering from constant and severe headaches, slurred speech, blurred vision, loss of balance, brain tremors, and dementia, among other physical and mental ailments. I began to feel this disease strip away my pride and determination and fill my life with hopelessness.” Zac was awarded Iowa Soldier of the Year in 2013, graduated from Grandview College with a 3.7 GPA in May 2015 and ended his life December 19, 2015. Zac left this note in one of his many journals: “I ask anyone who ever has to read this to please help spread the word about how dangerous concussions are and to try and help support the effort to make football a safer sport. I’m sure someone out there will read this and realize that he has gone through some of the same similar stuff as me. Whoever you are, I beg you to get help and don’t live the self-destructive life that I did.” Concussions don’t only affect the athletic population. Military men and women, skateboarders, car accidents, and bike riding are at the top of the list for TBI. If you know someone who is struggling with brain health or Zac’s story reminds you of a close friend or family member, please contact me, Sue Wilson, at swilson@cte-hope.org. I will guide you to the correct team of medical professionals that can start your healing process. Our goal is to provide resources and hope for all those involved in the aftermath of TBI. To learn more about Zac’s story and how you can help please visit http:// www.cte-hope.org/.

Great Lakes Small Streams: A Traveling Display DANBURY—We drink it, fish in it, clean with it, swim in it and travel across it. Water has always been critical for our survival. The Great Lakes region where we live is home to one of the largest freshwater resources on the planet. That water shaped the landscape, history and communities of our state and our county. From June 20 to July 15, Forts Folle Avoine Historical Park will have on display a traveling exhibit from the Wisconsin Historical Society. This exhibit, “Great Lakes Small Streams: How Water Shapes Wisconsin,” explores Wisconsin’s long relationship with water and the impact we have had on our vast waterways. The traveling exhibit will be enhanced with local photos and items provided by the Burnett County Historical Society which showcase how the lakes and streams in our county have been used over the years, beginning with the Ojibwe and Fur Traders over two centuries ago down to the present day. The dates of the traveling exhibit overlap the Yellow River Echoes event (June 22 - 24), the Booya (June 23), Full Moon Program (June 27), and Wild Rice Pancake Breakfast (July 1)- giving people one more reason to attend these special summer events. General Admission to the historical park will include this traveling exhibit at no additional charge. Members of the Burnett County Historical Society may view this exhibit for free. The Forts is open Wednesday - Sunday, 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.. For additional information, refer to www.TheForts.org or call 715-866-8890.
GHS students paint history onto piano BY GRACE LEHNE GRANTSBURG HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT
GRANTSBURG—When Grantsburg High School art students were told they would be painting a piano, they were definitely surprised. However, they rose to the occasion. The students painted a Grantsburg history themed piano within a matter of days, featuring images like Big Gust, the Blueberry Express, and sandhill cranes. This project was made possible through the cooperation of many different groups. The organization “Key 4/4 Kids” works to bring music to communities through their programs Piano Placement and Pianos on Parade. Grantsburg Community Ed organized this project and the local Lions Club sponsored it. Grantsburg Community Education organized the logistics of this project by contacting Keys 4/4 Kids and they agreed to bring the school a piano to be painted. Community Ed received permission from the Village Office to display the piano at the pavilion in Memory Lake park during the month of June. Painting the piano was not an easy task. First, students sanded the piano and covered it in paint to prime the surface. Then they went in with charcoal and pencils and sketched out the design. Finally, they painted and varnished the piano. Students involved include Alexis Troff, Autumn Tendrup, Brett Sawnson, Seth Stevens, Hannah Smestad, Shilo Covey, Ericka Erickson, Kate Weiss, Braeden Seibenthal, Grace Lehne, Rylee

Tigers bring home gold BY GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS
APPLETON—A four run sixth inning propelled the Webster Tigers baseball team to an 8-2 win over St. Mary’s Catholic and to the WIAA Division 3 Championship. Tigers pitcher Jack Washburn and St. Mary’s Wilson Davis each went five innings in something like a pitchers’ duel before the Tigers broke open a four point lead in the sixth and added two more in the seventh. “The boys definitely seemed more relaxed this year. The past experience of having made it last year was very big for us,” Tigers head coach Jarrod Washburn said. “We knew what to expect this year and had a much more relaxed and confident attitude going into the games this year.” Once again, Webster got on the board in the top of the first, beginning with a double by Trevor Gustafson. A sacrifice moved him over to third and Jack Washburn flied out to right field, enabling Gustafson to tag after the catch and score. St. Mary’s, though, scored twice in their half of the first. Uhlenbrauck was hit by a

pitch. Zimmer walked, putting runners on first and second. With one out, Skrzypczak doubled, getting the two runs home. “Jack did start his game similar to the way he started last season. I was a bit uneasy; but at the same time it is not uncommon for him to be shaky in the first inning so I was still

confident he would figure it out,” Coach Washburn said. “I relaxed quite a bit when he was able to find the strike zone pretty quickly after allowing those first two runners. After that first inning, he was pretty locked in and dominant with an almost unhittable breaking ball that he was commanding very well.” The second inning was scoreless for both teams with Webster getting a runner on board, but not able to get him plated. The Tigers knotted the game at two in the third. Owen Washburn singled, moving to third on a ground out. Carsen Stenberg flied to center field and Washburn came home after the tag. St. Mary’s had two on base in their half of the third, but were not able to capitalize on the event. Inning four was 1-2-3 for both squads. The Tigers got a runner on base in the fifth on a triple by Owen Washburn, but he was left stranded. St. Mary’s got a double in their half of the fifth, but also was left stranded. Webster got four runs on five hits in inning six. With one out, Jack Washburn tripled. Hunter Gustafson singled, scoring Washburn. Hunter Rosenbaum doubled, Gustafson stopping at third.
Brad Sigfrids then tripled both Gustafson and Rosenbaum home. Trenton Wols then singled Sigfrids to the plate, thus ending the top of the sixth with the Tigers up 6-2. After getting a lead off walk on board, Tiger pitcher Owen Washburn got two St. Mary’s batters to fly out and one to strike out, giving the Tigers just one inning to go for the championship. “Owen was able to come in and do what he has done for us all year, which is pretty amazing considering he is just a 14 year old kid,” Washburn said. “He doesn’t let any situation get too big and just relaxes and does his job, pounding the strike zone and allowing his defense to work behind him.” Webster picked up two additional runs in the top of the seventh. With one out, Stenberg doubled. Jack Washburn was intentionally walked. Then on a failed pickoff attempt on Washburn, both runners moved up with Stenberg scoring and Washburn ending up on third. Hunter Gustafson walked with Tanner Pardun coming in to run for him. Rosenbaum sacrificed a fly ball to center to score Washburn. Owen Washburn had a onetwo-three inning to end the game and give the championship trophy to the Tigers. The Washburns together allowed just two runs, three hits,
walked four and struck out 12. Brad Sigfrids had the hot bat, as he was three for four with two RBI’s. Owen Washburn was two for three. The Tigers finish their season with a 27-3 record and a State Championship. Four Tigers graduated— Hunter Gustafson, Austin Spafford, Trenton Wols and Caleb Pardun, yet there are plenty of upcoming athletes to take their positions next year. It would not be surprising to see Webster back for a third consecutive trip to the finals. “We will lose four seniors from this team and every year it seems harder to say goodbye to the group that is leaving,” the coach said. “These four young men will be hard to replace on the field, but even harder to replace within the fabric of our team. They all are great young men who will go on to be successful adults and it has been a pleasure coaching them all these years.” More from Coach Washburn: “The tournament experience is a very cool experience for the kids. Getting to go the day before our game and sit as a team watching D1 teams play really let’s the team sit and soak it all in perfectly. I think it really let’s them know how special their accomplishment of getting there is. Obviously, we knew a bit better what to expect this year - after our trip down there last year - so we were much more relaxed and able to just play our game. “I sensed a quiet confidence in the group while we were there that was very cool to see. We didn’t have to say much as a coaching staff, as it was very evident that they were focused and determined to achieve the goal they had set after the previous season’s disappointment. All season long they kept their focus on their goals, never getting too high after great games or too low after bumps in the road. It’s obviously a very talented group of kids, but that doesn’t always get the job done. You need that right attitude, work ethic and team chemistry to achieve the ultimate goals,and this group of young men did an outstanding job of keeping that focused, fun, family atmosphere all season.”

Spiritual hearing ability
Pastor Ran Yoo Kim UMC Central
“Now the Lord came and stood there, calling as before, ‘Samuel! Samuel!’ And Samuel said, ‘Speak, for your servant is listening.’” - 1 Samuel 3:10 Did you know that people have a different ability to hear sound according to their age? It is referred to as “audible frequency,” which means that each age group has a certain frequency band that they are able to perceive by ear. As we get older, our sight begins to fail and as we get older, we lose our hearing ability beginning with high frequency. Based on this phenomenon, a sound called “Teen
Buzz” was invented. “Teen Buzz” is 14.4kHz high frequency sound like the sound of a mosquito. And only teenagers can hear this Teen Buzz. Likewise, in our faith, each one of us has different spiritual hearing ability. Although God is always speaking to us in many ways, our responses are different. Sometimes, we are not able to recognize the calling of God, and other times, we just dismiss it though we recognized God’s calling. How is your spiritual hearing ability? Are you still able to recognize the calling of God? How old is your spiritual hearing age?

LAKESIDE COMMUNITY LUTHERAN CHURCH, ELCA
Are you spiritually young or old? We need to discern and recognize what God wants us to do where we are now - in church, at home, in the work place, in school, in town and in any community that we belong to now. Check your spiritual hearing ability whether you are ready to listen and follow God. I hope and pray that we discern God’s calling and are ready to response to God, “Speak, Lord, for your servant is listening.” Blessings, Pastor Ran

Dairy Breakfast Each year the Siren Community Ag Association hosts the Burnett County Dairy Breakfast as an effort to raise money for student scholarships and to educate the community on the dairy industry. This year’s event was held at the Grantsburg Fairgrounds. “We are all about people helping people.”
Local 4-H students volunteered to run the petting zoo during the 33rd Annual Burnett County Dairy Breakfast. The small animals were provided by Tammi’s Wildlife Rescue.

Students from Luther Point Bible Camp visited the petting zoo so they could get their hands on a Jersey heifer calf that was donated for the day by Nate Melin.
