Alive and well Webb Lake’s Cabaret a real-life ‘Bar Rescue’ BY TODD BECKMANN SENTINEL

WEBB LAKE——The building was in disrepair and a “Closed” sign hung in the window in 2013, but Mike Scaminacit didn’t let his dream die. “I jumped in with both feet and told myself I wasn’t going to let the Cabaret go away,” Scamanaci recalled. “I figure I can’t be the only one who fell in love with this place and didn’t want to see it go away.” He was corMike Scaminaci rect. That led to what today is known as the Cabaret Owners Group (COG) of which Scaminaci is one of three managing partners. “In my research, I found that in Europe, there are a lot of co-ops where people come together and buy their own pub,” he continued. “I thought, ‘Let’s bring that concept to Webb Lake.’” Even though ownership groups may not be new, the twist COG brought to the plate was the idea of passive investors. For an initial $3,000 investment, anyone would be able to be a one percent owner in the establishment. SEE CABARET, PAGE 6

Me and Samir I don’t believe I’m racist, but according to Webster’s Dictionary definition of the word, perhaps I am — but only when it comes to people like Samir who answer the phone for U.S. companies. Once again, I see I’ve gotten ahead of myself. So, back to the beginning, I booked a hotel for a trip we are planning. I booked the reservation through one of those internet travel websites, mainly because they offered free cancellation. Sure enough, I had to cancel that booking. Nowhere on the booking receipt was there a place to cancel via email, so I was forced to call the tollfree number with the intent of cancelling the booking. Now, I realize these sizable Seems to travel website places have a Me huge room with no windows no AC, probably lined with Todd Beckmann and phones and staffed with anyone with a pulse willing to smile in the face of constant anger and despair. More often than not, however, these big companies outsource this type of menial task to some poor third-world country. Oops, I’m letting my U.S.-centric feelings shine through. Anyway, calling this toll-free number is how Samir came into my world. Judging by his name and accent, I’m guessing the call center was in India ‚ or at least Samir was from India. The reason escapes me because I never thought Beckmann was hard to pronounce, but he referred to me as Mr. Todd throughout our conversation. There’s always that recording at the start of these types of calls saying the call may be recorded for training or some such nonsense. I’m betting they splice the best bits together for a blooper tape they play at parties, but I digress — back to the call. Samir asked how he could assist me and when I told him I wanted to cancel my reservation, he had to check to make sure that was within the realm of possibility — even though the website expressly highlighted that benefit. But first, he had to have my itinerary. I gave him my confirmation number and he put me on hold so he could retrieve that information. Once he had the itinerary, he could see the place I had booked and the dates we were staying. I repeated my desire to cancel the room and when asked why, I told him the hotel didn’t offer shuttle service to the airport. He asked to hold the line while he checked to see if that was an allowable excuse for cancelling — mind you, the website offered free cancellation, no questions asked. Good thing we have a cordless phone, as I was able to start a load of laundry before he was back on the line. Turns out mine was a valid excuse (whew) and he was going ahead with the cancellation. But, did he really? It’s been more than a week and I’ve not received any word from the travel website saying my hotel has been cancelled — now they have my credit card number. The last thing I want is to be charged $300 for a room I won’t use. So, I see another call in my future to verify whether the hotel was actually cancelled.

Does it count as a date? Recently, I performed a rite of spring — cleaning out the car. After a long winter, it was time to get rid of the sand, salt, dust and grime. A trip to the car wash took care of the exterior. I found a car wash where I could clean the hard plastic mats that are fantastic in catching all of the icky stuff, but end up looking really gross by springtime. There is nothing like a high pressure wand and foaming brush to From the get rid of salt and Publisher’s sand. Stocking up on Desk quarters, I used the car wash’s vacTom Stangl uum to remove the rocks, sand and other detritus from the carpet and interior. It was then time for the Armor All. There’s something about the scent and the way your skin feels after it is coated with the cleaning product that brings back memories for me. As a teenager, the only way to get my late father, Arved, (aka “The Chief”) to let loose with the keys
to family car was to wash, wax and vacuum the vehicle. I was the third of four brothers that were spaced roughly six years apart, so for about two decades, the Chief’s wheels looked pretty good. I remember when my youngest brother bought his own car, the Chief was not a happy camper. Not only did he have another used car to work on after hours, but he had lost his detailing service as well. For young males of my generation, cleaning and waxing the car was a Saturday afternoon tradition. We spent hours washing, waxing and — you guessed it — using Armor All on the tires and interior. I knew of people who would wax the door jambs of their cars and even the vinyl seats. In the days before mandatory seat belt use, waxing the seats was more about appearances than functionality. In fact, I imagine that some folks hit their heads on freshly cleaned and waxed dashboards. After cleaning my car last week, I took my wife on an outing to grandparents day for our seven-year-old granddaughter. She’s completing her first year in a new school, and this is the first opportunity we have had to attend a grandparents day. Diane and I waited in the “little” gym before it was time to go to the

classroom. I think even I could have dunked the ball with the basket rim at about seven feet. We got to see her classroom, sit on those very low chairs (good for your abs, right?) and do several activities designed for her to learn more about us and create some memories. We outlined and made cut-outs of our hands for a project that we got to bring home. I believe this was the first time I have outlined my hand on construction paper since I made ‘hand turkeys’ when I was in second grade. We also did a video where we were asked by our granddaughter what we did when we were her age. It was a great time. I’m not sure if it counts as a date with my wife, but at least the car was clean for the trip. Take some time to pay attention to your “wheels.” It is good exercise, great for resale value and will rekindle some memories. As always, I welcome your comments.

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 nine-ball fan I was never a baseball fan, not of any team. Just didn’t watch it. As a kid, attendances at my brothers’ games were infrequent. Too slow for me and I had no understanding or knowledge of its rules. I didn’t appreciate that pitching, at least in the majors, is what the game is all about. I just thought it was about a guy trying to hit a ball. A neighbor used to bring us to the local semi-pro games in Wisconsin Rapids. At that pre-teen age, my siblings and Newbie in I were more concerned with running around the stadithe North- um, which our neighbor allowed us to do, eating junk, woods standing in long lines for the chocolate malts and checkLori Callahan ing out boys — or girls, for my brothers. Our occasional viewing of the actual game was only to yell obnoxious things at the referee, shout out popular chants of the time such as, “Hey batter, hey batter, hey batter, swing,” as if our sing-song would disrupt the opponent’s timing, or to stomp our feet as hard as we could on a good, home-team play. Sad, but I don’t even remember ‘our’ team’s name. It wasn’t until some time in my 40s, after a few years of hearing the New York Yankees in the background, my husband’s team, that I began to ask questions, to learn about the game and, eventually, to enjoy it. Hailing from Brooklyn and then Catskill, Irish Catholic, with just a hint of that upstate New York accent remaining after his 25-plus years in the Midwest, my husband, Tracey, is a true-blue New York Yankee crazed-fan. It broke his heart when Jeter retired. We had previously enjoyed boxing and football together, but during baseball season, I found something else to do. (Football is the sport I grew up with as ‘the big deal’ — nothing got in the way of Sundays and Monday nights. I can still hear my father yelling, “Starr, you big dummy, up the middle, up the middle, always up the middle,” speaking, of course, of Bart Starr. I, too, will find myself shouting at the TV at times during the fall and winter. I was indoctrinated at an early age, not only by my father, but also with five brothers contributing. For the Yankees today, it’s not the same with Jeter gone, Bernie Williams, Jorge Posada and a slew more. I attended more than one outing in New York. In a match-up against the Red Sox, I enjoyed a stadium of thousands sing along to “burn, baby, burn” when Bernie rounded first and second base on a triple, and waves of “Who’s your Daddy” each time Pedro Martinez came up to bat. And, while future New York teammate, Boston’s Johnny Damon, superbly batted and eyed for a one-more-bad-pitch-for-a-walk and New York fans sneered that old childhood chant, “We want a pitcher, not a belly itcher,” automatically rose in my throat and I pounded my feet on the stadium floor. This was at the old Yankee Stadium. Pretty amazing and historic — I’m glad I was there. Until recently, I hadn’t seen a Brewers game in ions. With both the Twins and New York in the American League, it was infrequent that we saw any National League action. I’m looking forward to the rest of this season, getting to know the players and becoming a Brewer’s fan. I hear Ryan Braun is full of shenanigans.
GUEST EDITORIAL
Clarifying Wisconsin Act 420 I would like to help clarify some information that has appeared in both in the Burnett County Sentinel and in a letter to the editor of the Spooner Advocate concerning Burnett County funds that are paid to other libraries, in particular the Spooner Memorial Library, where I have been employed as the director for 23 years. In 2006, reimbursement for cross-county library use –Wisconsin Act 420 – was passed. Payments were first made in 2008. The purpose of the act was to compensate libraries for their service to residents from neighboring counties who do not reside in a municipality that has a library. Only adjacent counties are eligible for payments. Though Burnett County paid out $76,000, reimbursement is for use that is two years old, and only 70 percent of the actual cost is paid. Spooner Library received less than $1,500 for more than 9,000 check-outs from Burnett County in 2016. Prior to 2008, we would have received nothing for these services, and neither would have the money been spent on libraries in Burnett County. This is not money that has been taken away from either of the Burnett libraries; it is money that did not exist until 2008. This is not about one
Make America great again Dear Editor: That is Donald Trump’s call to America. But his is not a call to greatness — it is a call to destroy America. As a lifetime dedicated citizen and World War II veteran, American values are part of my DNA. For me, basic American values are individual rights, equality, respect for others religious views and education for all as a road to success. Donald Trump does not support our basic value of respect for and protection of the religions rights of all our citizens. Four recent stories a spotlight this issue. Four prominent names, Sadiq Khan, Senator Bob Bennett, David Petraeus and Michael Vlock. Sadiig Kahn. London citizens not only respect one of their Muslim citizens but actually elected him to lead their city as mayor.
Utah’s Republican U.S Senator Bob Bennett, during his dying days “Are there any Muslims in the hospital? I’d like to go up to every single one and apologize to them in behalf of the Republican Party for Donald Trump.” [Salt Lake Tribune] David Petraeus, former military commander in Iraq and former CIA director, warns “Demonizing a religious faith and its adherents not only runs contrary to our most cherished and fundamental values as a country. It is also corrosive to our vital national security interests and ultimately to the United States success in this war.” [Washington Post] Vlock, a Connecticut investor who has given nearly $5 million to Republicans at the federal level since 2014, said he considers Trump a dangerous man. [Star Tribune] The Bennett and Vlock rejection of Trump dramatically demonstrates
the agony of many dedicated Republicans. Support their values or support Trump? All voters have a critical choice -– to stick with basic American values or not. There is a strong temptation to believe that Trump will somehow magically improve the standard of living of working Americans. The dissatisfaction and anger are great. But, this nation can solve its economic inequality problem without undermining our Constitution and our faith in our fellow citizens. If we elect leaders at all levels of government who will work together to attack this seemingly intractable problem, we can move our economy ahead. America First is an empty promise. Trump First is what he really means. Fred Kramer, Part-time resident of Scott Township Richfield, Minnesota

An ad in the Jan. 11, 1894 Sentinel announced the sale of ladies’ embroidered, hemmed handkerchiefs at 4 cents each, and extra fine ones for 5 cents and 8 cents. This was at the Grantsburg St. Paul Bargain Store. Before the days of Kleenex, handkerchiefs were a popular item for Christmas or birthday gifts. Now, one can say they are collectors’ items.
STROLL THROUGH THE PAST by Eunice Kanne
Prohibition During Prohibition (1919-33), one way some chose to produce extra dollars was to make bootleg whiskey. Many schemes were carried out to get around the law. One farmer had elaborate plans for baffling “the feds” when they came searching for moonshine stills. He dug a hole or pit and then built a pig house over it. The pig house floor had a trap door that led to the pit. One day he heard “the feds” were around, so he stored all his whiskey-making equipment in
Handkerchiefs I haven’t seen a stone jar or crock for a long time. They used to be a common item, especially in the cellars of farm homes.

to Sawyer County with Stone Lake on our eastern perimeter. Every county in Wisconsin is subject to this law, and most likely every county grumbles about the payment. What we need to keep in mind is as Wisconsin citizens, we have the freedom and the privilege to use any library, anywhere in the state. This is not true for every state. Some states’ libraries are funded through subscriptions, and citizens pay more than $200 per year for a library card. In Wisconsin, we have unlimited resources and infinite knowledge freely available to any citizen in exchange for their name and the promise they will abide by library rules. Instead of asking Burnett and Washburn County residents not to cross county lines for library services, maybe we should be asking our counties to provide more libraries that are easily accessible to all of our residents. “Libraries are not the consequence of progress and prosperity. They are the cause of progress and prosperity.” — John King, Dean of the University of Michigan School of Information. Jane Frankiewicz, Director Spooner Memorial Library

library being better than another. This is simply geography. The eastern border of Burnett County is far closer to Spooner as a retail hub than Grantsburg or Webster. Grantsburg grocery stores do not urge the residents of Scott Township to drive 90 miles, round trip, to buy their bread and milk in Burnett County, nor do residents of Scott Township who shop in Spooner stores expect goods and services to be free outside their home county. Although libraries are free to use, they are not free to operate. Everything about libraries cost money, from staff and materials to heat, electricity and insurance. Though I do not think Act 420 is a perfect solution, it is a much fairer answer than asking the citizens of Spooner to bear the cost for Burnett County library service. My good friend and former Grantsburg Library Director, Judy Pearson, and I had many discussions about this issue, and a few ideas about tweaking the law. Burnett County is not alone is paying fees to libraries outside its county. Washburn County, with Birchwood on our southern border, pays large amounts to Barron County, and

CABARET: Webb Lake landmark flourishing once more CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
Scaminaci said the idea worked and currently the COG is at full ownership — 34 owners. In fact, the COG just had its annu-
al meeting toward the end of May. “I have nothing but good news to share,” he told the assembled owners. That good news included a profit payout for each of the owners.
“I was surprised we made money in 2015 because the original business plan forecast the bar not turning a profit until 2016,” Scaminaci pointed out. “I was pleasantly surprised.” And, he has already been hard at work rewriting the 2015-19 business plan, basing the growth of the establishment on the expenses and revenues of 2015. “Because a majority of the renovations are complete, I see our marketing budget increasing over the next three years,” he reported. “We made all these changes, so now we have to let people know we are here.” Those changes include the bar floors being stripped and refinished, a new outdoor deck, new horseshoe pits, new bathroom floors and even some log chinking on the outside of the building. The biggest project was the kitchen — a complete renovation. “We switched to using fresh ingredients to prepare the food we have been serving,” Scaminaci remarked. “We have been hearing rave reviews so with the newly renovated kitchen, we are hoping to continue that trend and maybe even expand.” But, by no means is the COG resting on its laurels. Future plans include a new fire pit, upgrading the sound system, better dance floor lighting, new menus — both for the bar and for the kitchen, and assembling an advisory board to handle bigger issues. “It seems when more people are involved in the decisions, you come up with a better product,” Scaminaci reasoned.

Police pursuit leads to crash
DANBURY—Five law enforcement agencies were involved in a high-speed chase Tuesday evening, May 24, in northern Burnett County and led to the arrest of an Onamia, MN man. The chase began earlier in the evening when Pine County MN deputies were in pursuit of a silver Dodge Durango on Highway 48 in Pine County and the chase was expected to enter Wisconsin. At that point, about 10:30 p.m., the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office was notified of the chase. Burnett County deputies, St. Croix Tribal Police and Siren Police began responding to the Danbury area to provide assistance, if needed. The pursuit, involving multiple Pine County Sheriff’s Office units and a Minnesota State Patrol Trooper, entered Burnett County eastbound on North Markville Road in the Town of Blaine, and then continued southbound on State Highway 35 toward Danbury at speeds estimated to be near 100 miles per hour. The suspect vehicle was able to avoid the first set of stop sticks placed by a Burnett County deputy. However, another Burnett County Deputy was able to deploy stop sticks successfully near Lake 26 Road; the fleeing vehicle then continued southbound into Danbury before crashing into trees, sustaining severe damage. Two occupants were apprehended at the scene of the crash and later released. The driver of the suspect vehicle, Jordan Smith, 22, of Onamia, fled on foot and was arrested a short time later after he was found hiding in an abandoned building near Pine Street and 4th Avenue in Danbury. Smith was taken to the Burnett County Jail, and later transported to a hospital for evaluation of a medical condition. During the pursuit, a Minnesota State Patrol Trooper who was assisting Pine County deputies in their pursuit lost control of her squad car while negotiating a curve on North Markville Road in the Town of Blaine and overturned. The trooper was transported from the scene by North Memorial Ambulance to a Duluth hospital with non-life threatening injuries. Also during the course of these events, the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office was notified that a Pine County Deputy had struck an uninvolved citizen’s vehicle on State Highway 35 near Minerva Road. Investigation by the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office indicates that Pine County Deputy Carl Hawkinson stated that had lost sight of the pursuit, but saw a vehicle which was stopped along State Highway 35 in Danbury he believed looked similar to the suspect’s vehicle. Hawkinson told Burnett County Deputies that he then drove his squad car into the drivers’ side of a 2002 GMC Envoy, driven by Jonathon Bearheart, 24, of Amery, in an attempt to prevent Bearheart and his passenger, Nathaniel Reynolds, 26, of Webster, from exiting their vehicle. Hawkinson told Burnett County deputies that after striking Bearheart’s vehicle and exiting his squad car, he realized that it was not the vehicle suspected to have been involved in the pursuit. Bearheart and Reynolds were not injured; Bearheart’s vehicle and the Pine County squad car sustained minor damage. From press release

WISCONSIN BRIEFING Walker owes nearly $900,000 from presidential campaign MADISON (AP) — Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker is gradually paying off hundreds of thousands of dollars in debt from his failed presidential bid primarily by renting out his email and donor lists to other candidates. The campaign owed $1.2 million at the end of 2015 and has paid off about $308,000 since then, according to campaign finance records. The bulk of those payments have been made possible by income from Granite Lists, a New Hampshire-based company that rents out Republican donor lists. Granite Lists has paid more than $172,000 to Walker’s campaign since it ended in September. In April alone, Granite Lists brought the campaign nearly $50,000, comprising most of the total $70,930 the campaign brought in that month. It’s common for candidates to sell their donor lists for extra cash flow once they’re no longer in the race. The donor list from Mitt Romney’s failed 2012 presidential run is featured alongside Walker’s on the Granite Lists website. But, the funding agreements aren’t always evident on campaign finance reports. In addition to flat-rate charges, candidates can set up revenue-sharing agreements, where some of the proceeds they obtain from donors are diverted back to the list owner. Candidates may also pay a flat rate of $10,500 to contact Walker’s entire 675,000-person email list, or $7,000 to contact the 225,000 donors and presidential campaign sign-ups, according to Granite Lists website. It calls Walker’s donor file “one of the hottest donor lists to hit the market in years.”
WEBSTER— It seems a no-brainer occurs at least a couple of times each school year for area school boards, and last Monday night was no different for the Webster School Board. At issue are youth option requests — where high school students in good standing are allowed to take college coursework, usually through the ITV network, on the high school’s nickel. Not that the board made any formal approvals — Monday was just an opportunity for the board to realize what a difference they are making in the lives of these young people. “We’ve probably spent about $30,000 in youth option requests in the 2015-16 school year alone,” Superintendent Jim Erickson pointed out. “The district has made a real commitment to funding these youth option requests.” So much so that there was a detailed account of options activity for the school year ending this month — 15 kids garnering 157 college credits, everything from English 101 and Cultural Diversity to Introduction to Theatre and Calculus 241. “We feel like it gives kids who participate a leg up when it comes to furthering their education,” Er-
ickson pointed out. In addition, he sees it as a winwin-win proposition. “First, the youth options program saves the kid and his or her family money and second, the kids get a taste of what higher education is like before they leave high school,” Erickson said. “Plus, I think the schools where these kids take these courses win because the students may apply there.” ONE-ON-ONE INITIATIVE The initial three-year lease on Chromebooks expires at the end of June. The board approved a new three-year lease with Tierney Brothers for 480 Chromebooks for $106,000. The lease is about $36,000 less than the previous lease and results in about 40 more Chromebooks. “We are fortunate to be at that point where the units are costing less so we can get more,” the superintendent observed. Currently, the district offers a Chromebook to each student, 3rd grade through 12th grade. “Next year we are piloting one section of 2nd graders,” Erickson reported. IN OTHER BUSINESS: • The district is reporting 18
students open-enrolling (OE) into the Webster School District and 10 open-enrolling out. At roughly $6,500 per incoming student, Erickson said a positive OE number is a good thing. budget-wise. • The board approved an overnight trip to Wisconsin Dells in June for the girls basketball team. “They participate in the ‘Shootout,’” Erickson noted. “A lot of good comes from that weekend — team building, plus a chance to play kids they don’t normally play against.” • A familiar face will be prowling the sidelines as new varsity football coach when the Tigers resume action in August. The board hired Andy Smith to take over following Jovin Kroll’s resignation effective at the end of June. “Andy has been an assistant coach in the football program all 12 or 13 years he has been here,” Erickson explained. In other personnel moves, the board hired Kevin Haglund to serve as the junior high counselor. Renee Ones has moved to the high school counselor position leaving an opening at the PK4-4 building. Scott Hoefs and Jarrod Washburn were hired to coach junior high baseball. The board also approved the resignation of Laura Krenz, 5th grade teacher.

ALPHA—Roundtable discussions are nothing new, but discussing issues over a cup of coffee is one thing — discussing them with someone who may be able to bring about change is something altogether different. Last Thursday, Rep. Adam Jarchow (R-Balsam Lake) began just such a series of roundtable meetings. The inaugural meeting met with the Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection (DATCP). The purpose behind the roundtables is to bring a department from Madison straight to the people. In Thursday’s roundtable, farmers, other producers and processors had the chance to talk directly to the secretary of a department which regulates them. As is the case with roundtable discussions, those in attendance voiced concern on a vast array of topics, ranging from growth hormones in livestock and animal welfare, to obtaining licenses to ensure operators are meeting codes for their specific specialty — but one of the biggest concerns voiced was over food labeling. “It is alarming how people make their food choices,” State Sen. Sheila Harsdorf remarked. Ben Brancel, the DATCP Secretary agreed. “The public buys products by how they are labeled — it’s a huge problem,” he explained. “People perceive added benefits by the way a product is packaged — those benefits are just not there. There’s no science behind it.” The DATCP roundtable took place at Burnett Dairy, east of Grantsburg.

Rep. Jarchow, Secretary Brancel, and Burnett Dairy CEO Dan Dowling spoke briefly, followed by questions and discussion. “Today, government came to the citizens,” Jarchow commented. “It is not every day that a department secretary from Madison comes to the people to discuss their concerns. That is why we are trying to make that connection in the form of these roundtables. I think we can make some real progress by providing this opportunity.” by Todd Beckmann, Sentinel
NEWSLINE Be ‘tick-safe’ this summer ST. CROIX FALLS—If your summer plans include camping, hiking or just being outdoors, make sure you pack the insect repellant to ward off ticks. Using insect repellent and taking other precautions can help reduce your risk of getting one or more of several serious diseases carried by ticks. Mid-May through mid-July is the period of highest risk for black-legged ticks (deer ticks) in Wisconsin. The black-legged tick can spread Lyme disease as well as anaplasmosis, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, and Powassan disease. American dog ticks (wood ticks) are very common in spring and early summer. They can also carry diseases such as Rocky Mountain spotted fever. Protect yourself from tick bites. Know when you are in tick habitat and take precautions. Wooded or brushy
areas are habitat for the black-legged tick (deer tick). Grassy or wooded areas are habitat for the American dog tick (wood tick).

WEEKLY WAG News and Updates from the Humane Society of Burnett County
Chloe is a gray and white, fiveyear-old cat that was obviously well cared for. This roly-poly feline is just the sweetest thing ever. Chloe loves to be petted and always raises her rear so that you continue all the way to the end Chloe of her tail. She will come to you when called. And, if you hold your hand above her head, she will stand up on her back two legs to connect your hand with her head. Chloe will make an excellent pet, but she is not too sure about sharApollo ing her space with other cats or dogs. She would probably prefer to be your only pet. Apollo is a good-looking, one-year-old cat who is sturdy and strong. The best description I have is that he is tabby with areas of white. Apollo adores people and is very excited to have visitors; however, he is quite stressed in the kennel and in the office. Right now, Apollo seems more relaxed in the confines of his condo. He will greet you at the door of his condo as soon as you open it and is eager for any attention he can get. One of the staff brought him out to meet me, and Apollo looked like he was clinging to her shoulders for dear life. He is also quite vocal when trying to get you to come back to see him again. Apollo really needs to get adopted and out of the shelter, as the hustle and bustle and barking are not helping his anxiety. He’s a good boy. His wonderful personality will shine through even more once he is safe and sound in his new home. Like Chloe, I’m not sure if Apollo would welcome another animal with open paws. If you are interested in adopting Chloe, Apollo, or any of the animals from our shelter, please visit our website at www. hsburnettcty.org or contact the shelter at (715) 866-4096.

BY EMILY M. STONE NATURALIST/EDUCATOR AT THE CABLE NATURAL HISTORY MUSEUM
During the fickle days of early spring, my emotions seem to rise and fall in sync with sap in the maple trees. I get kind of grumpy when the mornings dawn damp and cool, and the tracks on the ski trails sink dejectedly into the slush. After the extended ski seasons of the past two years, I’ve gotten accustomed to having endless days to explore new trails and to perfect technique. My feelings change as the days brighten, intense sun takes over, and the temperature spikes. Warm breezes and dry roads make me eager to put away the skis, and happy to pull my road bike out of storage. I guess you could say that I’m running hot and cold for spring. The first place I head on my inaugural spring bike ride is to a little wetland across the county road from Lake Namekagon. This wetland tends to thaw a bit sooner than the one by my house, and it is consistently the first place I hear the spring chorus of frogs. The eleven species of Wisconsin frogs (and one species of toad) wake up and begin singing their songs in a typical order each spring. Their specific phenological timelines depend on things like overwintering location, cold tolerance, and breeding habitat. Our three earliest singers share some common characteristics. Wood frogs, chorus frogs, and spring peepers are all somewhat terrestrial frogs that spend the winter as “frogcicles,” buried lightly in duff on the forest floor. Spring sun and warm rains can reach them quickly here, and they are triggered to thaw, wake up next door to their honeymoon suites, and breed very early in the season. April is typically their main month of romance, but each spring progresses a little differently. By getting such an early start, these frogs are able to carry out their entire breeding cycle in vernal pools. These woodland puddles only persist for a few months each spring. This means that eggs and tadpoles don’t have to worry about the fishy predators who would live in a permanent body of water, but it also means that the parents need to hurry up and get their babies growing so that they can gain legs before the pool dries up. Of course, spending winter on land has its own challenges. Even though the subnivean layer — where snow

meets earth — remains warmer than the television weather report, frogs in the duff must still endure below-freezing temperature for many days at a time. They do this not by avoiding the frogcicle state, but by guiding it. Wood frogs are the most highly studied, but spring peepers and chorus frogs use similar techniques. The process starts early in fall, when wood frogs begin accumulating urea in their tissues. While urea is a waste product that humans excrete in our urine, urea is also a cryoprotectant, or a substance used to protect biological tissue from freezing damage. Then, when the temperatures dip below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, ice crystals start to form on the frog’s skin. Some animals are able to “supercool,” or prevent the formation of ice even when temps dip below freezing. This usually requires them to avoid contact with ice that would trigger flash freezing. Frogs, with their permeable skin, just allow the frost to set events in motion. Ice formation causes the frog’s liver to convert stored glycogen into glucose. The sugar floods throughout the frog’s body, carried in its bloodstream by a heart that keeps beating as long as possible. As ice forms outside of cells, it locks up the pure water and leaves behind a higher concentration of salts and other things that were previously dissolved in the liquid. Water from inside the cells wants to flow outward, across the cell membrane, to even out the imbalanced concentrations. This could dangerously dehydrate
the cells, though, and there is a threat of them collapsing. Glucose and urea help the cells retain water in two ways. First, sugar water freezes as a lower temperature than plain water, and so less ice forms overall. Second, by increasing the concentration of chemicals inside the cell, it keeps water from wanting to flow out of the cell under osmotic pressure. While frozen, the frogs are essentially dead. Once spring comes, however, wood frogs thaw from the inside out. The heart starts beating (scientists still don’t know what jump-starts it). The brain wakes up and finally, legs move. Those legs will carry them directly to a nearby vernal pool. A deafening chorus of love songs ensues, and mating commences in a hurry. Wood frogs quack, spring peepers jingle like bells, and chorus frogs imitate a finger plinking a plastic comb. That’s what I was hoping for today, but the wetland was still quietly blanketed in snow. Over the winter, the frogs may undergo multiple freezethaw cycles. Springtime warmth also ebbs and flows. And then there’s me, sometimes turning a chilly shoulder to our next season, and sometimes embracing it with an open sweater. I guess I’m not the only who runs hots and cold!

The early Trade Lake community observed many customs that were brought from Sweden. One remembers that as
late as 1930, “May Fires” were set to drive away evil spirits. On such an occasion, a brush pile was set afire. The young people gathered around the fire and played ring games such as The Needle’s Eye, Captain Jinks and others. Later, they ate cake and coffee around the fire. With the increasing use of automobiles, young people had other means to reach out to other areas for entertainment.

Button shoes Button shoes were a common item in the early days of Grantsburg. They were made of leather and wore well. One had to own a button hook if one had them ready to wear for the day. The shoes usually had several buttons to hook closed once you put them on. The buttons were located in the ankle area, and reached well above one’s ankle. The button hooks were made of coarse wire about 3-4 inches long with a hook on one

If you are planning to attend our Car Show, I would like to ask you to please take the time to fill out our Pre-Registration Form and let us know what you will be bringing to the show.

Pirates advance with win over Chequamegon BY GOOB COY SENTINEL SPORTS
GRANTSBURG—“The rest of Division 3 is now taking notice,” said Grantsburg Pirates head coach Don Bjelland after the Pirates cruised to a decisive victory over the Chequamegon Screaming Eagles in the Sectional semi-finals on Tuesday night. The Pirates left no questions as they pounded out a 15-0 win in four innings. Grantsburg won the coin flip and was the home team. After a fast one, two, three defensive effort from the Pirate ladies, the bats started pounding. Grantsburg scored four runs as they sent eight
players to the plate to take an early lead. In the top of the second inning, the Screaming Eagles got their only hit of the night as Emily Ernst smacked the ball into centerfield for a stand-up double. That would be it be all they could muster though as the Pirates tightened the noose, completed a double play and strike out by ace pitcher Olivia Tucker ended the inning. The Pirates stepped to the plate and continued their hard hitting as they scored four more runs this inning to add to their total. Grantsburg held a 8-0 lead at the end two full innings.

COLFAX— Siren Track Coach Wayne Koball said it best: “We had the opportunity to escort some amazing young people to an amazing meet.” He was referring to the WIAA Division 3 Sectional Track Meet last Thursday in Colfax — the meet where the top-four finishers in any given event earned the right to participate in this weekend’s state tournament. While the Siren Dragons qualified in four events for the sectional meet, the season for all Dragon track athletes, except for senior Ashlee Rightman, ended that day. “Ashlee earned the chance to complete her athletic career at the state meet in the triple jump,” Koball pointed out. She also participated in the long jump and high jump on Thursday. “As one of the ‘favorites’ in the high jump, we got bumped in that event, but Ashlee took disappointment and turned it into positive energy,” the coach continued. “She pushed herself in the long and triple jumps and, as a result, will be representing the Dragons in LaCrosse in the triple jump. Unfortunately, Rightman’s bid for going to state in the high jump fell three inches short when she finished in the dreaded No. 5 spot, clearing 16-3. The fourth place jumper cleared 16-6 in order to advance. “We look forward to seeing Ashlee compete with the top jumpers in the state, and to put an exclamation point on her time as a Dragon,” Koball praised. “Siren has enjoyed seeing her compete, whether it is on the volleyball or basketball courts, or on the track. She is a talented young lady with a promising future and I am truly going to miss working with her.” GRANTSBURG PIRATES The Pirates have a three-event state qualifier on its roster. Sprinter Delia Labatt finished 1st in the 100 meter dash, 2nd in the 200 meter dash, and 3rd in the 400 meter dash in 12.52, 25.83 and 58.69, respectively. “She had great times in all three races,” coach Kim Hallberg noted. The other state qualifier for the Lady Pirates is Hallie Jensen. “Hallie finished 3rd in the 3200 meter run and shattered the record she set last year at sectionals,” Hallberg continued. “Last year’s record was a 12:15 and this year she ran a 12:01.” The coach said she was a little disappointed in not sending a few more athletes to state, but were denied when they were close and finished in fifth place.

TODD BECKMANN | SENTINEL
Ashlee Rightman cleared 34-1 to advance to La Crosse.
Namely, Jensen missed going to La Crosse in the 1600 meter run, posting a time of 5:45.49. Gracie Gerber finished fifth in the 800 meter run, crossing the line in 2:25.26. “In Colfax, we faced tough competition with many of our athletes out for track for their first time — it was a great learning experience for them to participate in a meet that size with the pressure of state looming,” Hallberg concluded. “Overall, the girls’ team got third place out of 29 schools, which we were very excited about.” WEBSTER TIGERS Sure to be a leader for the 2016-2017 Lady Tigers, junior Sadie Koelz cleared 9-0 in the pole vault, earning her way to a Saturday showdown with the best in the state. “She had some nice attempts at 9-6,” coach Roy Ward observed. “It would have been nice for her to clear that height, but it will have to wait a week.” The other Lady Tiger advancing to La Crosse is Kaitlyn Moser. The senior threw the shot 36-3.75, earning her a second-place finish in Colfax.

The entire Pirate team qualified for the trip to Marathon, but unfortunately, Knutson is the only one of the five to qualify for the state meet. Teammate Jared Lee shot an 84, tying him for 12th, three shots from a shot at state. Joey Duncan carded a 97 tying him for 47th, while Paul MacKean and Colt Lien each posted a 116, tying them for 66th. As a team, the Pirates fired a 377, finishing 10th.

MAPLE—“Our plan was to throw several pitchers to tune up for regional play,” said Coach Pete Johnson after a 10-3 setback to the Northwestern Tigers of Maple on May 24. Northwestern put two runs across in the first inning and opened the doors in the second with six. So, as the Pirates came into the third, they were behind 8-0. Grantsburg narrowed the gap somewhat in their third. With one out, Jackson Gerber got on via an error and was able to move to second on a wild pitch. After a ground out, Zach Tebow walked and Jacob Barnard hit a single, scoring two runs. The Tigers put single runs up in the third and fourth innings to go up 10-2. Grantsburg salvaged one run in their part of the fifth. Gerber walked. Bubba Bowman and Tebow hit back-to-back singles. Two batters later, Luke Anderson grounded out, but Gerber made it home with Grantsburg’s third run of the game. There was no further scoring. Tebow had the hot bat for Grantsburg, going two for
SAINTS DOMINATE IN FIRST ROUND OF PLAYOFFS. “We did a good job of putting the ball in play for four of our five innings,” reported Coach Johnson after the 12-2 loss to St. Croix Falls in the first game of the WIAA Division 3 playoffs. The hits, though, were hard to come by as the Pirates were able to get just two — a single by Jacob Barnard and a double by Bryce Roufs. “It was good to get a couple of hits and a couple of runs in the fifth,” praised the coach. Barnard singled. Two batters later, Brett Anderson was hit by a pitch. Johnson got on via a fielder’s choice and then Roufs hit his two-run double. Grantsburg pitching gave up 12 hits to the Saints, walked three and struck out one. Saints pitching had just the two hits, no walks and struck out six Pirates. Grantsburg’s season ends with a conference record of 5-10 and an overall record of 6-13.
Tigers lose to Beavers; season ends BY GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS
CUMBERLAND—In the first round of the WIAA Division 3 playoffs, the Cumberland Beavers defeated the Webster Tigers 3-1. “It was a pretty good game for high school ball, outside of one really bad inning defensively for us,” commented Tiger Coach Jarrod Washburn. “We hit the ball pretty well and got guys in scoring position in many of the innings, but kept hitting balls hard just right at their guys. Jack pitched really well for us and only allowed one infield hit that was a play we should make. After that ball fell, we ended up having some mental lapses in that third inning that ultimately cost us
the game.” All four runs were scored in the teams’ respective third inning. For the Tigers, Trenton Wols hit a single, stole both second and third, and then came home on an error by the Beaver catcher. They did leave two men on base in the fifth and sixth innings and the bases were loaded in the seventh, but no additional runs came across. Cumberland had a single, a sacrifice (an error allowed the runner to get on board), a walk, an error and another walk to score their runs. Austin Spafford had two of the five hits for the Tigers, both singles. Jack Washburn was on the mound for Webster, going five innings, walking five and striking out 10. Webster finishes the season with
an overall record of 12-11 and a West Lakeland Conference record of 7-7, good for fifth place. The Tigers have a promising core of young players ready to tackle the 2017 campaign. “I can’t say enough how proud I am of this group of boys for how they worked together and kept improving throughout the year,” praised Coach Washburn. “We finished with an above .500 record for the first time in a really long time and showed a lot of promise for the future. We will greatly miss our seniors who have graduated and will be moving on, but most of our team was very young and will be back next year. Hopefully they continue to get bigger, stronger and better and the sky is the limit here for Tiger’s baseball.”

COLFAX—It shouldn’t come as a surprise to anyone who has watched the Webster Tigers race in track meets this spring that the Tigers will be well represented at the state meet in La Crosse this weekend. “The Webster Tigers had a great sectional meet at Colfax,” Tiger coach Roy Ward exclaimed. The strength of the team may be its distance runners as junior Andrew Ruiz qualified for both the 1600 meter run and 3200 meter run, winning the former in 4:38.93 and placing second in the latter, in a time of 10:25.77. “He ran a smart race in the 1600 meter run and was sitting back as far as seventh,” Ward explained. “He worked his way up to the qualifying position (4th place).

He had a throw of 46-6 placing him second. “We are excited for John to compete at state and hope he keeps closing in on the school record,” Pirate coach Brad Nelson remarked. “We had a 4x100m relay and 4x800m relay that each had a shot, but they didn’t make it.” Nelson did note the team had some 5th and 6th place finishes which just missed going to state, which was disappointing, but the athletes set some new personal records and put out the best the team had. “These guys have worked so hard this year and it really showed,” Nelson praised. Overall, the boys team finished 12th overall.

home stretch, he told himself ‘I can beat them.’ I was surprised to see him kick it and finish as a sectional champ.” The coach admitted Ruiz will face some tough competition in the mile on Friday. “It will be fun to see what he can do,” Ward pointed out. According to Ward the 4x800 meter relay, another state-qualifying event, was an exciting race to watch. “We switched the order up hoping Andrew could take it down a notch and conserve for his mile and two mile,” Ward noted. “Well, the order worked out great, but the rest of the team (Joey Formanek, Mason Schaaf and Hunter Erickson) needed Andrew to pick up a couple spots and he did.” The team posted a season-best time of 8:38.11, finishing fourth and qualifying for La Crosse.
“Joey ran a nice split putting us in a good position and Mason did a great job fighting to keep us in the qualifying position,” Ward observed. “Freshman Hunter continued to amaze us with his performance.” The final piece of the state-bound puzzle belongs to senior Grant Preston. “Grant threw 139-10 in discus to earn a trip to state,” Ward praised. “He was pumped going into the meet and even more pumped up after.” Later in the meet, he made the finals in shot put. “He was sitting 8th going into finals and improved his position to 5th with a throw of 42-7,” the coach reported. “He was in the terrible 5th spot, but felt a little better being three feet from 4th instead of three inches.” Fourth place was a throw of 45-6.

SIREN DRAGONS “Sectional meets are filled with magic — both good and bad,” Wayne Koball, Siren coach pointed out. While the “good” magic belonged to the Lady Dragons, the “bad” magic belonged to the Dragons. None of the athletes who qualified for the sectional meet qualified for state. Tanner Lee threw the disc 128-1 and finished 7th, Josiah Wegner finished 14th and 15th in the long jump and the triple jump, covering 18-7.25 and 36-6.5 respectively. Teammate Neil Oustigoff cleared 5-10 in the high jump, finishing tied for sixth. The 4x200 meter rely team of Steven Pruitt, Dolan and Derek Highstrom and Oustigoff combined to post a time of 1:44.41 to finish 12th. “It has been an awesome year,” Koball concluded.

Britta Roufs stretches to reach second base in the Pirates win over Cumberland.
Against the Beavers, the Pirates kept the hitters hitless. Only three Cumberland batters got on board via walks. One got to third base on a wild pitch, but could not advance. The Pirates, on the other hand, got two runs in their half of the first. Britta Roufs walked, moved to second on a ground out and scored on a Jordyn McKenzie double. Megan Miller got on via an error. Briena Jensen singled the second run home. Inning three saw Olivia Tucker double and go to second on a passed ball. McKenzie singled and stole second. Miller singled and stole second. Cassidy Quimby got on via an error and also stole second. In the fourth inning, the Pirates put it away with five runs scored. Highlights of the inning were three doubles, Tucker, McKenzie and Palmquist. The 10th and final run came in the bottom of the fifth when Tucker singled, McKenzie got on board via hit by pitch, and a Megan Miller double. Tucker recorded three walks and nine strikeouts for the win. She and McKenzie each had three hits, with McKenzie batting in three runs.
TUCKER STRIKES OUT 10 IN WIN OVER LOGGERS
Olivia Tucker recorded 10 strikeouts and walked just two in a rainy 7-1 win over the Phillips Loggers on Friday afternoon. The Loggers got their only run in the top of the second on a myriad of miscues. With one out, Baratka was hit by a pitch. She moved to second on a stolen base. Two wild pitches got her home. But, that was the only run the Loggers would record on the day. Grantsburg got on board in the bottom of the first when Britta Roufs walked and Olivia Tucker blasted one over the fence for a home run. In the third inning, with two out, Jordan McKenzie walked, Megan Miller singled as did Briena Jensen. Cassidy Quimby walked and then stole second, and Claire Palmquist followed with a single. Grantsburg was up 6-1. The Pirates last run came in the fourth when with one out, Roufs and Tucker each singled. McKenzie and Miller then each walked, scoring the one run. Phillips pitching gave up seven runs on seven hits, walked seven and struck out six. Tucker had just two hits against her, the one run, walked two and struck out 10. Grantsburg finished the regular season with a 13-1 record and is currently holding a 23-2 overall mark. Chequamegon has a 7-3 conference and a 19-5 overall record.

Siren Chamber welcomes ‘Distinct Pawn & Gifts’ SIREN—With a ribbon cutting on May 20, the Siren Chamber of Commerce welcomed Distinct Pawn & Gifts to the Outpost Mall at 24516 State Road 35/70. The ceremony was delayed due to a store relocation, given the business had already outgrown its original space in just three months. Owners David and Mary Burdick became the new owners on February 1, 2016. “Since February, we have already outgrown the location and moved two doors down, but will stay at the Outpost Mall,” they said. The mall is located just north of Crooked Lake in Siren. Products and services offered by Distinct Pawn & Gifts include loans, buy/sell items, estate pieces, garage sale closeouts, consignments, distinct memorabilia and gifts. “We are the only licensed pawn shop in Burnett County, and we have a licensed authenticator on staff. We
pride ourselves on being fair and honest.” Their vision is to be an asset to the community. This has been demonstrated immediately as they have embraced the area’s artisan community, promoting local talent in a specially-designated portion of their store, with thoughts of featuring an art show each year. Burdicks are a husband and wife team of 35 years. They have three adult children with five grandchildren. Both worked corporate jobs in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, took early retirement, and “decided to move to our home in the woods. We wanted to stay productive and active in our retirement.” More info may be found on their website, www.distinctpawn.com. It links to a future Facebook store and an eBay presence. They may be contacted at 715-349-4868 for additional details.

Father Mike Tupa celebrates Silver Jubilee WEBSTER—More than 200 faithful gathered to celebrate Rev. Micheal J. Tupa’s Silver Jubilee of ordination to the priesthood on Sunday, May 29. Among the attendees were Bishop James Powers of the Archdiocese Superior, dignitaries from the Knights of Columbus, and a bevy of priests from some of the 99 parishes in the diocese. The milestone was celebrated with an afternoon mass, followed by dinner at the Webster Community Center. The program included a video of Father Tupa’s ordination, as well as several speakers. His brother and sister, Dave Tupa and Lenore Godding, attended with their families. Father Tupa graduated from Rhinelander High School in 1977. He received his Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from St. John Vianney Seminary in St. Paul, MN. He studied for the priesthood at Sa-
cred Heart School of Theology in Hales Corner, WI. He credits his family’s active involvement in the church and close relationships with priests in the area. “They played a big role in my vocational decision,” he commented in a May 1991 Catholic area news article. He was ordained on May 31, 1991 at St. Mary’s Church in Rhinelander. During his 25 years, he served at Wisconsin parishes in Tomahawk, Eagle River, Barron. He has served for the last 13 years at St. John the Baptist Church in Webster. While in Barron, he celebrated the 100th anniversary of St. Joseph’s Church.

What are your hands saying?
Pastor Sandy Hutchens Faith Lutheran Church
Most of us don’t like our hands to be dirty or to see dirty hands on someone else, for that matter. That nasty dirt under the nails and an overall appearance of unclean hands just doesn’t appeal to our senses. Yet, this time of year, you will find my hands not quite as clean as they are in the winter. You see, I love to garden, but I hate wearing gardening gloves. I have gone through several nail brushes, and will probably go through a few more in my endeavor to give my hands that clean appearance we all like. Spiritually speaking, we aren’t always so

well kept either. What is so sad about it is that when we have the least little bit of dirt (sin) on our hands, we’ve broken fellowship with God. What we do with our hands and the fruit we bear from them has a big impact on us and on those around us. I hope that I can improve my hands’ appearance — not physically, but spiritually speaking. Perhaps we need a manicure set for our spiritual hands. Maybe a pair of cuticle scissors to cut out some of those worldly things we don’t need. An emery board to file away those rough

spots that shouldn’t be there. A pair of nail clippers to clip off that overgrowth of self that we all get. And, an application of nail polish supplied by the coating of the Holy Spirit. Maybe if we kept our hands manicured spiritually, they’d talk to others about us in a positive way. I was thinking about this and began wondering what people see when they observe my own hands. Here are some things I’d like my hands to reflect: Compassion, Mercy, Hospitality, Productivity, Prayer, Strength, Love.
