Sunday thunderstorm sweeps Burnett County

BURNETT COUNTY—A powerful thunderstorm swept a path through Grantsburg and other areas of Burnett County while worshipers were in church Sunday morning, causing damage from lighting strikes and high winds while dumping two to five inches of rain. Some estimated the strongest but spotty winds at 60-80 mph.

The ragged stump of a tall 150-year-old pine was the only remaining evidence Monday afternoon beside Dr. Greg and Kathy Palmquist’s Grantsburg home after the village crew removed the tree that fell over onto Wedin Street on Sunday morning.

Coach Washburn in tune with his players BY SEAN DEVLIN EDITOR@BURNETTCOUNTYSENTINEL.COM

Webster—In April 2013, Jarrod Washburn was on the front page of the Sentinel’s sport section— he was about to begin his first season as head coach of the Webster Tigers baseball team. And let’s not forget, just a few years before that, he closed out a successful 12-year career in the majors. Now in his fifth year with the team, Washburn and his boys are headed to State. This is the first time in school history. “It was pure joy,” were Washburn’s feelings after the last out was made against Eau Claire Emmanuel Lutheran on Tuesday, June 6, a game the Tigers won 13-0.

Crash claims life near Grantsburg MEDIA RELEASE: BURNETT COUNTY SHERIFF’S OFFICE

BURNETT COUNTY—On Friday, June 9, at 5:43 p.m., the Burnett County Sheriff’s Office received a report of a single-vehicle crash on Tennessee Rd. near Benson Rd. in the Town of Grantsburg. Investigation of this crash indicates that a 2002 Chevy Blazer operated by Tyson Wiegman, 35, of Grantsburg was northbound on Tennessee Rd. when he apparently lost control while negotiating a curve, entered a ditch and overturned. Weigman was not wearing a safety belt and was partially ejected from the vehicle; he was pronounced dead at the scene by the Burnett County Medical Examiner. His passenger, Tonya Owens, 35, of Grantsburg was not injured. Alcohol is suspected to be a contributing factor in this crash. The Grantsburg Fire Department and North memorial Ambulance also responded to this incident. Investigation continues by the Burnett County Sheriff’s office.

At the Immaculate Conception Catholic Church, the west-to-eastward wind lifted metal flashing off a roof joint and allowed water to “pour down into the nave as church was letting out,” said usher Pete Lauer. Parishioners gathered by the main doors, Lauer said, “watching the torrential downpour.” Water collected in the parking lot high enough to cause many to remove and carry their shoes while walking to their cars. Lauer said Monday afternoon the church office had contacted the church’s insurance company in hopes of getting an adjuster on the scene quickly, amid concerns of more rainfall. Dark clouds formed in the west late Monday afternoon. “We had pots, tubs, buckets spread out everywhere to catch as much falling water as we could,” Lauer said, “but the entryway carpet became soaked.” When Lauer and his family arrived at their home on Little Wood Lake Road southeast of Grantsburg, two downed trees blocked their driveway. Lauer was also saddened that the wind broke off two stout, healthy maples about eight inches in diameter in his back yard. While Lauer’s home gauge showed two inches of rainfall, amounts varied around the county and even within Grantsburg. The DNR Station on State Road 70 reported the official total of 3.31 inches. Just a few blocks north on Wisconsin Avenue, some rain gauges showed 4.5 inches. Two Grantsburg churches reported finishing worship by flashlight or candlelight after power outages.

Wisconsin Avenue, Grantsburg

The Wisconsin Avenue (Long Street) homes and yards of next-door neighbors Greg and Kathy Palmquist and Bill Java and Barb Swanson both had damage. The Palmquists lost a tall pine on the east side of their stately home. From the tree’s rings, they estimated it was 130 years old. Several more from their yard were lost six years ago in the July 1, 2011 straight-line wind storm. Next door to the east, Bill Java said the wind was

Siren Chamber welcomes Fireﬂy Village

SIREN—Firefly Village is the newest member to be welcomed to the Siren Chamber of Commerce. On May 24, owners Gary and Robyn Beek received an official welcome and ribbon cutting ceremony by Siren Chamber board members. “We purchased Firefly Village in September of 2016, just about one year after moving to this area,” shared Gary Beek. “Having learned of the limited job market in the area, we thought this would be a good opportunity to try something different and to bring something fun and enjoyable to the community. We thought the four rustic buildings were unique and that they each had a lot of potential. We always liked the name ‘Firefly’ and thought it was fitting to include our little ‘village’ in the title.” The Beeks have been married almost 27 years. They have three sons, one daughter-in-law and two grandchildren. In fact, their son, Jacob, and his girlfriend, Brittany, have joined them in opening their business this spring. Gary retired from the U.S. Army as a helicopter pilot after serving 20-plus years. He also spent nine years with the regional airlines as a manager and an assistant chief pilot in Minneapolis. In 2015, he returned to the enjoyment of flying helicopters with North Memorial Air Care based at the Burnett County Airport. Robyn has several years of retail experience and was partnered in a home décor store for a few years, but most of her passion is in interior design and décor. This is clearly evident when you stop in for a visit at Firefly Village. “Within a short time after moving to this area from Prior Lake, Minn., we noticed how wonderful and friendly the people are,” noted Robyn. “We had no idea this hidden gem of a community was this close to the

Twin Cities. “After visiting nearby communities of Spooner and Hayward, we realized that Siren could also offer some of the fun and pleasurable experiences that we are now offering.” The main gift shop at Firefly Village has a large variety of items such as: Up North home/cabin décor, apparel, jewelry, candles, lawn ornaments, etc. “There are too many items to list, but we most likely have a little something for everyone,” commented Gary. “The ‘Ice Cream, Fudge and Candy Store’ was recently updated and it features the best super-premium ice cream from Madison. It’s Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream. This ice cream is so delicious, we just had to have it! It is most likely the best ice cream in Burnett County.” This ‘sweet shop’ also features fresh homemade fudge, chocolates and a large variety of salt water taffy and old-fashioned candy. “Our vision was to have a unique gift shop which

offered a good variety of merchandise at very competitive prices. We also felt the need to have an ice cream shop which would have the best ice cream in the area, and we found it in our choice - described as ‘Genuine Super-Premium Wisconsin Goodness.’ We decided to stay local as much as possible to find the finest quality in our fudge, chocolate and selected candies. “Our third building currently displays upscale repurposed furniture, new custom-made wood lawn furniture, and a variety of gently used items for sale. As we provide quality products at affordable prices, we hope to become a ‘shopping destination.’ “Our village also carries a line of Walden Backyards products, including their Legacy Fire Pit Set and accessories.” Firefly Village is located at 24217 State Road 35/70 in Siren, next to the Dollar General store.

Hey, quit calling me that... Some people become filled with a self-righteous satisfaction when they toss a loaded insult in the direction of someone. I bet if ten random people from around the country were asked to write down as many derogatory names as they could think of in one minute, there may be a few similarities on the combined lists: Deplorable and Snowflake. Thank you, politics, we are forever reaping the benefits of your angry, “I’m right and you’re wrong” speeches. If there is one thing the right and left have in common it is that neither side has learned from the history of name-calling and prefer to ride the wild horse of defense. Both Trump and Clinton took their opponent’s choice insult and Sentinel plastered it on campaign signs. Proud Member of the Basket of DeEditor plorables, or, Nasty Women Vote! Sean Devlin It’s not new. We take what our enemies say and twist it into a rallying cry. Throughout history, disenfranchised groups have taken the slanderous names they were given and henceforth wear the label as a badge. This is not always the case, but in many situations it is true and the even sadder truth is that we do not learn. We are resilient in that we take a knife out of our hearts and sharpen it, place our force behind it and drive it into our opponent. But, all we’ve done is deepen a wound. It seems that political parties— in particular a bi-partisan nation— are two transformers constantly equipping themselves with more weapons for battle, never sitting for a conversation, a damn solution. Trumpkin, teabagger, snowflake, libtard! Aren’t we all so creative? I’ll admit, I’ve indulged. I’ve said %&#@%$$* under my breath before while reading an article or have thought a few of those words after having regrettably engaged in a “political” conversation. But, what this tense political climate has boiled down to for me is a study of humans. I’ve become baffled by the human species— we thrived in the Enlightenment, developed airplanes so we can be like birds... we are all jealous of them, and we can write novels that engage every human emotion and cause us to forget about the world around us. But, we can’t figure out that name-calling (what we tell our children never to do) doesn’t do anything but widen a divide. And, we do it in the face of democracy, an ideal that urges us to want what is best for everyone. Ideal is the key word. I know the issues in our political system go far beyond name-calling. I just wonder if we can ever remember we all have something in common—we are fighting for the same country. And, we act like children. I want to know what you think. Call me, 715-4632341.

Gouchy no more I have experienced many things in my life and I have been fortunate to avoid many other experiences. I went five decades without a broken bone, a record I was proud of until I decided to use my gloved hand to clear a clogged auger on a running snow blower. Yes, I know, not smart at all. God does look out for fools, so all I ended up with was a broken tip of the middle finger of my left hand. Keeping it immobilized, always pointing up, was a great conversation starter for a week or so. Last week, I had another one of those experiences. From the My left foot began to be stiff and sore Publisher’s with some pain near my big toe and Desk some marks that looked like bruises appeared as well. I could not recall Tom Stangl dropping anything on my foot or injjuring i iit iin any other way and eventually the pain was so intense that even having a sheet on my toe was excruciating. A perusal of the internet pointed to a diagnosis of gout. I used a telephone-consultation doctor provided by our company, who came to the same conclusion. He prescribed some anti-inflammatory drugs and told me to see my primary physician if I wasn’t “markedly better” in two days. I don’t know about you, but when I hear “gout,” I have a less than favorable mental picture. I see King Henry VIII, corpulent and over indulging in food and drink. I didn’t want to be “that guy.” Over the weekend, I got worse and ended up seeing a doctor. Some blood work and foot x-rays confirmed the diagnosis of gout. Fortunately, there are prescription medications that can make things better quickly.

When I was receiving counseling from the pharmacist on the drug that I was to take for my gout, my wife told the pharmacist I was “gouchy,” a word she made up that was a combination of gout and grouchy – gouchy. Very clever. The pharmacist shared that his young granddaughter was at times “hangry” – hungry and angry, something she warned her grandfather about and a situation he quickly remedied. We all had a laugh. I took the medicine (tiny, tiny pills) and was seeing relief in hours. A week after the initial pain, I was nearly back to normal. Amazing. It turns out that my predilection for red meat (I could eat it at nearly every meal) was my undoing. Foods that are high in purines, which the body breaks down to uric acid, are to be avoided and it doesn’t hurt to lose some weight as well. It’s the uric acid that accumulates and causes the problems. I haven’t had red meat for a while now. Chicken is just fine. I’ve even been eating some fresh fruit. Caffeine, beer, red wine, spinach, asparagus, gravy, scallops, sugary drinks and gravy are to be avoided – all have purines. Drinking lots of water helps as well, which is good for everyone. I will be able to eat red meat or any of the other foods, but must do so in moderation. Moderation is the key to success in many things in life, a lesson I continue to struggle to learn. But, thanks to marvels of modern medicine, I am “gouchy” no more. As always, I welcome your comments. You can reach me by email at tstangl@theameryfreepress.com, telephone 715-268-8101 or write me at P.O. Box 424, Amery, WI, 54001. Thanks for reading; I’ll keep in touch. Feel free to do the same.

To the Editor: The three letters “S.O.S.” are commonly known for “Save Our Ship,” but in today’s world I believe that it needs to stand for Save Our Seniors. Not too long ago the people who held the position of being an elected Congressman or Senator took the time and resources available to protect and serve our elders. Programs were put into place for senior citizens so they would have the necessary funding to ensure that they were safe and comfortable in their aging years. Then greed and corruption became part of government. Money once available to supplement seniors such as food stamps, health care and affordable nursing homes has long been cut. Monies readily available have now been re-

We want to give a big “high-five” to Taylor Paving for the great job they did resurfacing our parking lot. It was sorely in need. What a pleasure it is to drive on a smooth surface! Thank you. There were 20 players for bingo who enjoyed the delicious treats furnished by Bill. (I think he had a helper.) Teri won the big pot. Come join the fun. We play at 12:30 p.m. every Wednesday. Nancy was the winner at dominoes. I didn’t get any info on the pool players. They both play at 1 p.m. every Thursday and we always have room for more. If you haven’t been to the center, stop

placed with long waiting periods or not at all. Corporate tax cuts and special interest groups have caused an incredible amount of harm to the wellbeing of the very people that have earned our respect and deserve dignity. We, as a nation, need to hold our officials responsible for gutting these programs. Contact your Congressman Sean Duffy and demand that no cuts be made to programs that help seniors. Let him know that even with his multiple votes against senior needs, you will give him a chance to redeem himself for all of the tragic things happening because of his misguided agenda. Let it be known he is running out of chances to honor the elders. Mark Struble Star Prairie

UW Extension undergoes changes BY SEAN DEVLIN SENTINEL

BURNETT COUNTY—The 2015 state budget cut served the UW system an 8.3 percent financial cut and has pushed the Extension to undergo a long reorganization period. The cooperative Extension itself was stripped of $3.6 million. Burnett County Community Development Agent-Department Head Mike Kornmann stated that the Extension was set to experience changes regardless of the cut. “We were going to do it anyway. The old model has been in place for 100 years.” He explained that the budget cut was “motivation” to move forward with consolodating. Multiple offices are being eliminated and responsibilities are being dispersed within related departments. For example, The Cooperative Extension Human Resources Office was eliminated and some of the positions were transferred to the Extension Central Office Human Resources Unit. The consolidation process seems to be a long time coming as Kornmann explained that the Family Living and 4-H positions combined into one nearly six years ago.

Soon to come is the Area Extension Directors (AED) position. This new position merges the regional director and county head positions. It is considered a multi-county area position and will serve adminstrative purposes. The name of the individual who will serve in this position will soon be announced by the Extension. The AED will serve Burnett, Washburn, Sawyer, Barron, Rusk, the St. Croix Chippewa and LCO. This position will be fully funded by the Cooperative Extension. Employment requirements were reduced for some positions. “Previously, the educator positions in county offices were faculty and people were required to have a Master’s degree. Going forward, that will no longer be the case. They will now be classified as academic staff. There will be less of an emphasis on applied research and heavy emphasis on teaching. That is probably the biggest change,” Kornmann said. Many changes are expected to be implemented between July 1 and Jan. 1. For more information, visit http://burnett.uwex.edu. More information will be available in the coming weeks.

Due to the holiday, the deadline for the July 5 Edition will be Friday, June 30 at noon. SOCIAL SECURITY:

Burnett County schools to get Youth Apprenticeship grants TURTLE LAKE—All three schools in Burnett County are among 28 area schools to receive Youth Apprenticeship Grants through Cooperative Educational Service Agency 11 (CESA 11). CESA 11 was awarded $312,300 in grant funding to help high school students develop skills through a handson learning experience at a worksite, combined with classroom instruction. Established in 1991 through the Department of Workforce Development (DWD), Youth Apprenticeship gives Wisconsin’s high school students the opportunity to explore career options through applicable courses in high school while earning a wage and gaining work experience. Students who complete the Youth Apprenticeship program receive a completion certificate and may receive technical college credit and graduate with the skills needed to accept an entry-level position in their occupational area. CESA 11 is working with 28 school districts registering Youth Apprentices in the career areas of Agriculture, Food and Natural Resources, Archi-

tecture and Construction, Finance, Health Services, Hospitality, Lodging and Tourism, Information Technology, Manufacturing and Transportation, Science, Technology, Engineering and Math, Distribution and Logistics. Currently, 187 business and industry partners are now active CESA 11 Youth Apprenticeship programs. During the 2016-17 school year, CESA 11 Youth Apprenticeship programs had a 98 percent employment offer rate, which speaks volumes to the coordination of school-based coordinators and partners to ensure students are academicand career-ready. School districts that will benefit from these Youth Apprenticeship grants are: Webster, Grantsburg, Siren, Amery, Baldwin-Woodville, Barron, Cameron, Chetek-Weyerhaeuser, Clayton, Clear Lake, Colfax, Cumberland, Durand-Arkansaw, Ellsworth, Frederic, Glenwood City, Luck, Osceola, Plum City, Prairie Farm, Prescott, Rice Lake, River Falls, Shell Lake, Somerset, Spring Valley, Turtle Lake and Unity.

raise Galerucell beetles - small beetles who feed on purple loosetrife - in order to combat the spread of this invasive species. GHS students joined with Siren High School Biology 2 and Honors Biology 1 students to dig up loosestrife roots from a wetland near Poquette Lake and then replanted the roots in swimming pools to grow over the month of May. In the board report it states, “On June 1, we received our beetles, and they will reproduce inside a controlled grow tent until July when Science Club students will deliver the beetles to the wetlands on the upstream end of the [Clam] Flowage.” More GHS biology students are conducting volunteer frog and bird surveys for the WDNR at Crex Meadows. The data is being used to track long-term population trends throughout the state.

I Am Your Flag... I was born on June 14, 1777. I am more than just cloth shaped into a design. I am the refuge of the world’s oppressed people. I am the silent sentinel of freedom. I am the emblem of the greatest sovereign nation on earth. I am the inspiration for which American patriots gave their lives and fortunes. I have led your sons and daughters into battle from Valley Forge to the bloody ridges of Vietnam to the sands of the Persian Gulf. I walk in silence with each of your honored dead, to their final resting place beneath the silent white crosses, row upon row. I have flown through peace and war, strife and prosperity, and amidst it all I have been respected. My red stripes... symbolize the blood spilled in defense of this glorious nation. My white stripes... signify the burning tears shed by Americans who lost their sons and daughters. My stars... clustered together, unify the 50 states as one, for God and country. “Old Glory” is my nickname and proudly I wave on high. Honor me, respect me, defend me with your lives and your fortunes. Never let my enemies tear me down from my lofty position, lest I never return. Keep alight the fires of patriotism, strive earnestly for the spirit of your republic, and I shall remain the bulwark of peace and freedom for all mankind.

SIREN— At the June 8 Village of Siren board meeting, many funding opportunities were brought to light which have the potential to help finance future infrastructure projects. In the recent past, the board discussed the possible construction of a pedestrian/bike trail along State Highway 35. One potential funding program for this project is the Wisconsin Department of Transportation: Transportation Alternatives Program (TAP). The deadline to submit an application for funding is January 2018. If submission is successful, the TAP program will fund 80 percent of the eligible cost. Siren is also eligible to apply for the Wisconsin Department of Administration: Community Development Block Grant (CDBG). The CDBG funds projects with a community-wide benefit. In order to apply for this grant, the Village must first conduct an income survey. The next deadline for CDBG applications is May 2018 for potential 2019 projects. If the Village develops any plans for outdoor recreation additions, The Wisconsin DNR: Knowles-Nelson Stewardship Grant applications are due May 1, 2018. The Stewardship program could potentially cover 50 percent of a project. The Village must develop an Outdoor Recreation Plan in order to qualify. The proposed pedestrian/bike trail along State Highway 35 may be eligible for funding through the Stewardship program. It was also brought to the attention of the Board that if they are considering taking advantage of potential funds through the The Wisconsin DNR: Safe Drinking Water and Clean Water Fund, an online application

must be completed by October 1. In other news, the Village of Siren may be acquiring a portion of land from the Department of Transportation (DOT). The plot of land is located across the street from the old Fire Hall and sits on the corner of Highway 70 and Hanson Avenue. From discussion, it appears that the DOT may be willing to offer the land at no cost to the Village and the land will most likely be used as parking for those utilizing the Gandy Dancer Trail and other Siren amenities.

We should always love and care for our brains, and June is Alzheimer’s and Brain Awareness Month. It serves as a nice reminder to talk and think about our brain health more often. Why is brain health important? The brain is the control center of our bodies. We can’t live without our brain. Alzheimer’s disease is the most common form of dementia and it is on the rise. According to the Alzheimer’s Association, Alzheimer’s disease is the sixth leading cause of death in the United States. Today, more than five million Americans are living with Alzheimer’s disease and the number is projected to increase to as much as 16 million by 2050.

10 Ways to love your brain What can you do? Start taking care of your brain now with the Alzheimer’s Association’s “10 Ways to Love Your Brain:” 1. Engage in regular cardiovascular exercise that elevates your heart rate and increases blood flow to the brain and body. 2. Take a class or learn something new. 3. Quit smoking. 4. Better manage cardiovascular disease risk factors—such as obesity and high blood pressure—as these negatively impact your cognitive health. 5. Protect your brain. Brain injury can raise your risk of cognitive decline and dementia. 6. Eat a healthy and balanced diet low in fat and high in fruit and veggies. 7. Get enough sleep. 8. Take care of your mental health. 9. Stay socially engaged. 10. Stump yourself with a good “word find” or crossword puzzle, or take a different route to the grocery store.

Early detection is key Research shows that early detection of Alzheimer’s disease is key in slowing the progression of the disease and being prepared for the journey ahead. Talk with your provider about any memory concerns you have and call the ADRC of Northwest Wisconsin at 877-485-2372 to schedule a memory screen. Memory screens can detect if there are possible issues to be followed up on with a provider or memory clinic. ‘Healthy Minute’ is brought to you by healthyburnett.org

WEEKLY WAG News and Updates from the Humane Society of Burnett County

I hope all is well with each of you and that you and your furry buddies are enjoying the beautiful weather. With that in mind, please remember the heat can often be dangerous for the a animals. Did you know tthat if the air temperature iis 77, the asphalt temperatture is 125. This can cause ssecond-degree burns to tthe paws within only 35 sseconds. Then, of course, there iis the inside car temperatture. Even 70 degrees iis too hot to leave your ffour-footed friend in the Hank car. As much as they might like to go in the car with you, it’s better if they stay home and stay safe. They will be there to greet you when you return! We received a mother cat and four kittens at the shelter as strays. These poor kitties were found in a box on Gandy Dancer Trail on a very hot day. We are thankful to the person who found them and brought them to the shelter for treatment. Their lives literally were saved by this wonderful woman. It’s raining kittens at the shelter and they are just adorable! We have two 12-week-old brothers, five eight-week-old kitties, three 6½-week-old cuties in foster care, one-monthold Hank and then, of course, the new arrivals that were found in the box. It is so much fun to watch them play and enjoy life. Phoebe I know they would really love a good home. These bundles of joy will provide you with entertainment and laughs, not to mention purrs and cuddles. You can always double your fun by adopting two! When I was at the shelter, the two older kittens were playing in our new cat room and they sounded like a herd of elephants. They were hilarious! Converting the back office into a playroom is very beneficial in providing attention and playtime for our felines. It is also a great room to visit and spend time with the kitties. Great news – sweet Cameo has an approved application and will be leaving the shelter! The quarterly newsletter will be out later this month. To save money, we have gone green so newsletters can be found on our website. If you would like to be notified or have one e-mailed to you, please contact the shelter and provide your e-mail address. Follow us on Facebook for updates. As you can see, I didn’t feature any particular pet. However, when you adopt one of the kittens, you save the lives of two – the one you adopted and the one there is now space for at the shelter. So, on that note, I will bid you adieu and wish you a wonderful week.

If you are interested in adopting a kitten or another animal from The Humane Society of Burnett County shelter, please call (715) 866-4096 or visit the website at www.hsburnettcty.org.

DNR staff to be at area waters June 17 for aquatic invasive species outreach If you’ll be on the water in Burnett or Washburn counties on Saturday, you will see Wis. Department of Natural Resources and Clean Boats/Clean Waters staff talking with the public about aquatic invasive species and how to protect the natural resources by preventing their spread. DNR Conservation Warden Roger Arnould says the good news about these unwanted, damaging species is the Wis. DNR is part of a strong statewide partnership of public and private stakeholders committed to an effective strategy of prevention, containment and control. “The more you know about these invaders, the more you can do to help stop the spread to Wisconsin’s precious waters,” he said. Arnould says DNR staff will be there to educate the public about these damaging pests and the enforcement side of stopping the spread of AIS. “It is important the public is aware of these species – which are small, but can cause much damage to the waters and the aquatic habitat for fish and other species we want.” Non-native species such as zebra mussels and Eur-

asian water milfoil have been detected in Wisconsin’s waterways. Their presence can cause severe damage to local ecosystems, industry and tourism. “Recently, zebra mussels were identified in Big McKenzie Lake in Burnett and Washburn counties,” he said. Arnould offers these important easy-to-do steps to take to help prevent the spread of AIS: • Inspect boats, trailers and equipment • Remove all attached aquatic plants and animals • Drain all water from boats, vehicles and equipment • Never move plants or live fish away from a water body. For more information regarding AIS, search keyword AIS at dnr.wi.gov. If you have information regarding natural resource violations, you may confidentially report by calling or texting: VIOLATION HOTLINE: 1-800-TIP-WDNR or 1-800-847-9367. The hotline is in operation 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Trained staff relay report information to conservation wardens.

Wisconsin bear hunters donate to Chetek tornado damage clean-up effort CHETEK, WI – Today, Members of the Wisconsin Bear Hunters Association (WBHA) presented the Chetek area Salvation Army with a $5,000 check to help with tornado damage clean up in the area. “This is an area of the state that our members are very familiar with. We were extremely saddened to hear of the damage and loss of life caused by last month’s tornado in Barron County,” said WBHA Foundation President Stephanie Hanson. The funds, raised through WBHA’s Foundation, were presented to the Salvation Army’s Duana Bremer at a small ceremony held at Prairie Lake Estates. “Thank you for the support from the Wisconsin Bear Hunters Association,” stated Bremer. “These funds will go directly to help victims of the tornado who were residing in the trailer park. We thank you very very much.” “We have heard nothing but the best regarding the Salvation Army’s response,” said WBHA Board Member Eric Tuckner. “We are proud to present them with this modest donation to help with efforts in this region.” In attendance was Representative Romaine Quinn, adding, “Wisconsin Bear Hunters are not only dedicated outdoor enthusiasts, but are also a group of men and women who care deeply for their communities. We are extremely thankful for their generosity during this great time of need.”

Raise A Glass To Dairy Farmers! They consistently deliver us farm-fresh dairy products with high nutritional value. Not only do their efforts nurture our local economy, they also nurture our health. Think of the number of things we eat that are dairy products: milk, butter, cheese, ice cream and more. Certain dairy products contain nine essential nutrients that help better manage weight, as well as reduce risk for high blood pressure, osteoporosis and certain cancers. Maybe that’s why nutritionists recommend that you eat three servings of dairy per day. Best of all, dairy products are as delicious as they are nutritious. During Dairy Month, support the dairy market and share delicious dairy products with your family. They’re all good, and good for you!

powerful enough to implode the glass window on the west end of his home’s long front screen porch, covering the porch floor with glass. At the other end of the porch, the incoming rush of wind blew the window glass outward onto the lawn.

Course, reported Manager John Addison. Some chairs, tables and umbrellas at the swimming pool were damaged or destroyed, said Manager Nikki Olson. The Municipal Airport windsock was blown off its mooring. Some trees fell at Riverside Cemetery and as they fell, knocked over two headstones. The public works crew will assist in cemetery tree removal and uprighting the stones.

Grantsburg Family Foods In front of Grantsburg Family Foods, the temporary greenhouse of plastic supported by metal poles was a twisted mess. “We lost a lot of plants and we’re done with the greenhouse for this year,” said Assistant Store Manager Brenda Holmquist.

Grantsburg village properties

James Avenue, Grantsburg A large ash tree in a neighbor’s yard toppled eastward on Tim McKinley’s pickup truck, crushing the truck’s box. Other limbs broke its windshield. Limbs were down on the golf course and entire trees were toppled in some northside yards while others sustained little or no damage.

Above, a toppled stump and lots of sawed pieces of tree trunk were testament to the storm’s wind power Sunday morning. Most of the tree from Mirian Newby’s yard missed Tim McKinley’s house, but ﬂattened his pickup truck’s box.

Lightning causes Voyager Village home ﬁre

Four trees and many limbs came down at Grantsburg Municipal Golf

The home of Gary and Vicki Schaaf in Voyager Village east of Danbury sustained some fire damage. The Schaafs arrived home to find one exterior wall on the house on fire and immediately summoned the fire department. They credit a swift response from the Jackson Fire Department for saving the structure. Later, it was determined that lightning struck a tree near the home. The bolt apparently followed the tree roots to the natural gas line and from there to the house. Vicki Schaaf said the Jackson firemen told her they had four lightning strike fires in the fire district in the northeastern part of the county. STEVE BRIGGS | SENTINEL

The temporary greenhouse in front of Grantsburg Family Foods along State Road 70 was a twisted mess following the Sunday morning storm with straight-line winds.

National Weather Service According to reports from the National Weather Station in Duluth, starting at

7:30 a.m. Sunday morning and spanning 24 hours, Grantsburg alone saw just shy of 4 inches of rain. It is reported that 2.5 inches covered Grantsburg by 4:15 p.m. In other areas, Hertel and Yellow Lake received approximately 2.5 inches while Danbury recorded 0.33 inches, one of the lowest estimates in the county for June 11. Storm reporters for the National Weather Service also noted multiple trees upwards of 20-30 feet in diameter had fallen in locations such as Old Highway 35 by the Siren airport and various locations in Grantsburg in the early hours of the day. Multiple Webster side roads fell victim to flooding throughout the day. — Steve Briggs and Sean Devlin of the Burnett County Sentinel and Julie Hustvet of the Spooner Advocate collaborated on this story.

The Webster Tigers proudly show off the Sectional Championship plaque after defeating Eau Claire Emmanuel Lutheran to advance to the State Tourney. They are playing today (June 14) in the State semi-ﬁnals for a chance to play for the state title on Thursday.

Tigers beat EC Immanuel; earn trip to State BY GLEN SKIFSTAD SENTINEL SPORTS

SHELL LAKE—It is State-Bound for the Webster Tigers as they completed a sweep of two games at Shell Lake last Tuesday, winning the second game vs Eau Claire Immanuel Lutheran by a 13-0 score. Webster was the visiting team in this game and they did not wait to get started. They put nine runs across in the top of the first inning. With one out, Trenton Wols walked. Jack Washburn and Hunter Gustafson both singled. Brad Sigfrids got on via a fielders choice. Jordy Larson was hit by a pitch and Austin Spafford got on via an error. Caleb Pardun also got on by an error. Matt Buffington and Trevor Gustafson both singled. Wols walked a second time and then the big hit followed, a three-run triple by Washburn. The Tigers added two more in the second and third innings. One of the runs in the third inning was on a solo home run by Washburn.

GOOB COY | SENTINEL

Washburn finished three for three at the plate for Webster, scoring once and getting four RBIs. Hunter Gustafson was three for four, scoring once. Matt Buffington had two hits in three times at the plate, getting one RBI. Caleb Pardun had two RBIs. Washburn was an all-around player on Tuesday as he was also the pitcher of record. He went five innings, gave up one hit, walked just one and struck out 13. Eau Claire Immanuel went through five pitchers, but were not able to stop the Tigers from advancing to State competition. Webster will meet Independence/Gilmanton at 8 a.m. Wednesday morning at Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium, Grand Chute (Appleton), Wisconsin. The other semi final game pits Athens vs Oakfield. The winners play on Thursday morning at 9 a.m.

Head Coach Jarrod Washburn was ﬁred up as he celebrated with his son, Jack, who just pounded out a triple in the Sectional championship win over EC Immanuel to punch the Tigers’ ticket to the state tournament.

WASHBURN: leads hometown Tigers squad to school’s ﬁrst State tournament CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

“It was just a matter of them believing in themselves,” he said. In many cases, it is common to see a large number older players on a successful team; after all, experience can play a big part in a winning record. However, this Tigers team is successful for a combination of reasons, Washburn explained, and age isn’t anywhere near the top. This particular season, the majority of starters are juniors or below, four starters being sophomores. In addition to a fine skill set, Washburn feels his players molded into one, efficient unit over the season. “There is no selfishness. Even the ones that are not playing as much. They are just as valuable. They are joking around, keeping everybody loose and relaxed. They allow us to perform. They bring a good energy to the team,” he said. He also noted that the squad’s “Team First” attitude contributes greatly to their success. He added, “For a young group of guys, they don’t seem to wilt under pressure.” While the boys in orange and black are overjoyed about their journey to State, Washburn knows his team is filled with mature, hardworking young men. “I think their mindset is great. They are real happy we got this far, but they are not satisfied with just getting there,” he said.

Jarrod Washburn (left) offers some sound coaching advice to Caleb Pardun as he takes the ﬁeld during a game earlier this season.

Having been part of multiple championship teams in his career - most notably the 1994 NCAA Division III World Series (UW-Oshkosh) and the 2002 MLB World Series (Anaheim Angels) - Washburn knows how to prepare a team for a long, successful season. Before the Tigers took to the field this season, Washburn carefully put together a game schedule that included last year’s state champions, Ithica High School (Bulldogs). Washburn made sure to schedule difficult matches for his team in order to get them used to playing in high-level games. The Tigers’ first game of the State competition will be held at 8 a.m. on Wednesday, June 14. So, this past week, Washburn had the boys on the field at 8 a.m. each day of practice in order to prepare them for playing at that early hour. “They have been short practices but high-intensity,” he said. Other than changing the time of practice, Washburn says that the Tigers have not changed their methods of preparation. “I told them, State will be a little bigger and fancier, but it’s just baseball.” The State competitions will take place at Neuroscience Group Field at Fox Cities Stadium, Grand Chute. The Tigers will face Independence/Gilmanton at 8 a.m. on Wednesday, June 14. The winner will play for the State Championship on Thursday, June 15 at 9:00 a.m.

MILESTONES

James Hokanson Through the

Pipeline By Luke Thoreson Burnett Plumbing Company

Be On The Look-Out Believe it or not, soon we will be in the hot, humid season. Steamy summer weather increases the risk of mold in your house for several reasons. First, many molds and mildews grow faster in warmer temperatures. Second, cool or cold surfaces are much more likely to collect condensation when the air is humid. This condensation can saturate nearby porous materials and create a breeding ground for mold. Third, once moisture accumulates during a spill or leak, it has a very hard time evaporating if the air is already saturated with moisture. Be extra vigilant this time of year looking for water leaks in your home. Wipe up spills as soon as they occur. Consider replacing old toilets that “sweat” with newer, insulated models.

Hot weather increases pavement buckling MADISONâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Drivers are asked to be alert for potential pavement problems, traffic slow-downs and to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Move Overâ&#x20AC;? for roadside workers including highway repair crews Occasional heatwave conditions like last weekend during the summer can create conditions for â&#x20AC;&#x153;pavement buckling,â&#x20AC;? pavement lifting and crumbling. Motorists are asked to use extra caution. Pavement buckles are most common when the weather quickly goes from cool to very hot, and pavement expands. This can cause concrete slabs of pavement to push against each other and, if the pressure becomes great enough, the pavement can buckle. While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s difficult to predict if or where buckling may occur, WisDOT offers the following tips for motorists: â&#x20AC;˘ Slow down, buckle up and eliminate distractions to

focus your full attention on the roadway. Along with pavement issues, other concerns this time of year include deer, other animals or debris on the roadway. â&#x20AC;˘ Watch for slowing traffic and be ready to â&#x20AC;&#x153;move overâ&#x20AC;? one lane when possible for all roadside workers, including highway crews, as they repair damaged pavement. â&#x20AC;˘ Before your trip, check the 511 Travel Information system (www.511wi.gov) for the latest on any incidents or delays. â&#x20AC;˘ If necessary, report serious pavement issues by calling 911. Be ready to provide specific location information.

Traffic crashes in May claim 45 lives in Wisconsin MADISONâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Preliminary data from the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT) shows 45 people died in Wisconsin traffic crashes last month making it the second safest month of May since the end of World War II. However, traffic deaths so far this year still outpace the five-year average. The deadliest May occurred in 1968 with 123 fatalities, and the safest was in 2013 with 32. Traffic fatalities last month were 10 fewer compared to May of 2016, and three less than the five-year average for May. Preliminary figures indicate 11 people died in traffic crashes over the recent Memorial Day weekend, compared to 10 during last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three-day

holiday period. Over the first five months of this year, 203 people died in Wisconsin traffic-related crashes including 27 pedestrians and 13 motorcycle drivers. Through the end of May, traffic deaths were 13 fewer compared to the same period last year, but 13 above the five-year average. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Every traffic-related death is a tragedy and virtually all are preventable,â&#x20AC;? said WisDOTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bureau of Transportation Safety Director David Pabst. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Nationally, at least 90 percent of traffic crashes are the result of motorists making bad decisions or practicing dangerous driving behaviors. As we enter the heavily-traveled summer months, when traffic crashes, injuries and deaths typically increase, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re asking all motorists to slow down, buckle up, eliminate distractions, drive sober and alert. Everybody can do their part to move our traffic fatalities toward zero in Wisconsin.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Drain Campaignâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; begins for Wisconsin boaters

BURNETT COUNTYâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; The Wisconsin statewide â&#x20AC;&#x153;2017 Drain Campaignâ&#x20AC;? begins this weekend. This event informs boaters and anglers of the Wisconsin state law that requires all water to be drained from their boats, including livewells with fish, before leaving the landing. Boaters are urged to follow the law and help prevent the spread of invasive species.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;1776: Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Prize-Winning Musicalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opens Saturday at Festival Theatre ST. CROIX FALLSâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;The musical â&#x20AC;&#x153;1776â&#x20AC;? opens this weekend with a 7:30 p.m. Saturday, June 17 show at Festival Theatre Companyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Black Box Theatreâ&#x20AC;? in downtown St. Croix Falls. â&#x20AC;&#x153;1776â&#x20AC;? is a masterful retelling of the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s founding fathers as they try to organize the signing of the Declaration of Independence. This production provides something different though: all the founding fathers are played by women. Two of the cast knew each other prior to this production: Taylor Haggerty, a recent graduate from Viterbo

University, and Karla Hughes, an Associate Professor of Theatre & Music Theatre at Viterbo. Haggerty will play Martha Jefferson and Richard Henry Lee, while Hughes will be playing our nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s second president, John Adams. Both are excited for the opening of â&#x20AC;&#x153;1776â&#x20AC;? and the task of playing historical figures â&#x20AC;&#x201C; especially those of a different gender. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am looking forward to the challenge of playing a man,â&#x20AC;? says Hughes. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I certainly share many of John Adamsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; personality traits. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m stubborn, strong willed and determined.â&#x20AC;?

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I hope I can do him justice,â&#x20AC;? Haggerty says of Richard Henry Lee, the Virginian statesman known for calling for the coloniesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; independence during the Second Continental Congress. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was a great man.â&#x20AC;? This production is sponsored by Luhrs/Bjornson Artworks, a downtown St. Croix Falls art and pottery gallery.

Nominations open June 15 for FSA county committees

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The nomination period for local Farm Service Agency (FSA) county committees begins on Thusday, June 15. “County committees allow farmers to make important decisions about how federal farm programs are administered locally to best serve their needs,” said Acting FSA Administrator Chris Beyerhelm. “We strongly encourage all eligible producers to visit their local FSA office today to find out how to get involved in their county’s election. There’s an increasing need for representation from underserved producers, which includes beginning, women and other minority farmers and ranchers.” County committees are made up of farmers elected by other producers in their communities to guide the delivery of farm programs at the local level. Committee members play a critical role in the day-to-day operations of FSA. Committees consist of three to 11 members and meet once a month or as needed to make important decisions on disaster and conservation programs, emergency

programs, commodity price support loan programs, county office employment and other agricultural issues. Members serve three-year terms. Nationwide, more than 7,700 farmers and ranchers serve on FSA county committees. After the nomination period, candidates will encourage the eligible producers in their local administrative area to vote. FSA will mail election ballots to eligible voters beginning Nov. 6, 2017. Ballots will be due back to the local county office either via mail or in person by Dec. 4, 2017. Newly-elected committee members and alternates will take office on Jan. 1, 2018. To become a candidate, an eligible individual must sign an FSA-669A nomination form. The form and other information about FSA county committee elections are available at www.fsa.usda. gov/elections. All nomination forms for the 2017 election must be postmarked or received in the local FSA office by Aug. 1, 2017. Locate your local office at https://offices.usda. gov and visit to get more information or call Isabel Benemelis (202)720-7809.

or any person, county department under sec. 46.215, 46.22 or 46.23 or licensed child welfare agency, if custody or supervision of the child has been transferred under chapter 48 or chapter 938 to that department, person or agency. (b) Except as provided under chs. 48 and 938, whoever intentionally causes a child to leave, takes a child away, or withholds a child for more than 12 hours beyond the court-approved period of physical placement or visitation period from a legal custodian with intent to deprive the custodian of his or her custody rights without the consent of the custodian is guilty of a Class F felony. This paragraph is not applicable if the court has entered an order authorizing the person to so take or withhold the child. The fact that joint legal custody has been awarded to both parents by a court does not preclude a court from fining that one parent has committed a violation of this paragraph. (2) Whoever causes a child to leave, takes a child away or withholds a child for more than 12 hours from the child’s parents, or in the case of a nonmarital child whose parents do not subsequently intermarry under sec. 767.803, from the child’s mother, or if he has been granted legal custody, the child’s father, without the consent of the parents, the mother or the father with

legal custody, is guilty of a Class I felony. This subsection is not applicable if legal custody has been granted by court order to the person taking or withholding the child. (3) Any parent, or any person acting pursuant to directions from the parent, who does any of the following is guilty of a Class F felony: (a) Intentionally hides a child from the child’s other parent. (b) After being served with process in an action affecting the family but prior to the issuance of a temporary or final order determining child custody rights, takes the child or causes the child to leave with intent to deprive the other parent of physical custody as defined in sec. 822.02(9). (c) After issuance of a temporary or final order specifying joint legal custody rights and periods of physical placement, takes a child from or causes a child to leave the other parent in violation of the order or withholds a child for more than 12 hours beyond the court-approved period of physical placement or visitation period. (4)(a) It is an affirmative defense to prosecution for violation of this section if the action: 1. Is taken by a parent or by a person authorized by a parent to protect his or her child in a situation in which the parent or authorized person reasonably believes that there is a threat of physical harm or sexual assault to the

child; 2. Is taken by a parent fleeing in a situation in which the parent reasonably believes that there is a threat of physical harm or sexual assault to himself or herself; 3. Is consented to by the other parent or any other person or agency having legal custody of the child; or 4. Is otherwise authorized by law. (b) A defendant who raises an affirmative defense has the burden of proving the defense by a preponderance of the evidence. (5) The venue of an action under this section is prescribed in sec. 971.19(8). (6) In addition to any other penalties provided for violation of this section, a court may order a violator to pay restitution, regardless of whether the violator is placed on probation under s. 973.09, to provide reimbursement for any reasonable expenses incurred by any person or any governmental entity in locating and returning the child. Any such amounts paid by the violator shall be paid to the person or governmental entity which incurred the expense on a prorated basis. Upon the application of any interested party, the court shall hold an evidentiary hearing to determine the amount of reasonable expenses. WNAXLP (June 7, 14, 21)

Love, Compassion and Humility

Pastor Mike Brubaker Cumberland United Methodist Church

If the goal of our Christian life is to live into the image of God, and God is love, then we have to learn how to love as God loves. Jesus came to live so we could see Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s image and learn to love as God loves us. There are two important qualities of Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love that Jesus demonstrated for us: humility and compassion. These are the keys to loving as God loves. On the last night with His disciples, Jesus took off His robe, knealt down and washed their feet. Jesus did not take on an attitude of superiority though He was their Teacher

and Master. In love and humility, He took off His robe of superiority, knelt before them and touched their feet. He asks us to do the same. If we serve others from an attitude of superiority, we are not loving as God loves us. No amount of piety and good works make us any better than another. Humility requires us to see ourselves and all others as children loved by God, in need of grace and mercy. When Jesus encountered the unclean, He had compassion for them. Compassion means to share in the suffering of others, it is not a feeling of the heart, but a feeling that

comes from deep within. Love and compassion, as demonstrated in the life of Jesus, requires us to act. Even though it would make Him ceremonially unclean, Jesus reached out, touched the leper and restored him to his family and community. If we are to love as God loves us, we must learn how to feel for others, to take off our robes of superiority, and dare to reach out and be in intimate contact with those society claims are outcast and unclean.

Grantsburg Village Board approves plan for municipal airport funding BY STEVE BRIGGS SENTINEL

GRANTSBURG—In a first-ever move, the Grantsburg Village Board voted Monday to start the paperwork and procedures toward accepting aviation entitlement funds for Grantsburg Municipal Airport, also known by its FAA-assigned airport code “KGTG.” The $750,000 available to the KGTG from the Wisconsin Civil Aeronautics Board has a five percent (5%) local match requirement. The Grantsburg area pilots group, which has been promoting local airport growth and development, has pledged to fund that $37,500 match over a 20-year loan period without incurring any additional tax expense to village residents. The pilots will pay the local match, they say, by voluntarily raising their

monthly payments to the village by $20 per pilot, per month during the proposed 20-year life of the loan. Pilots who own or lease hangars at KGTG pay a monthly land lease to the village for situating their hangars on airport property. “This will give Grantsburg one of the higher land lease rates in the area, and it demonstrates the pilots’ commitment to the airport,” said former village board Trustee Rod Kleiss, a pilot and member of the village’s airport committee. Airplane mechanic speaks Perhaps one of the deciding factors at the Monday meeting that moved the board to approve the funding was an appearance by Cameron Smith, a certified airplane mechanic who stated he has about 20 years of experience working on everything from small private planes to commercial airliners.

Four area food shelves receive NACF grants BY STEVE BRIGGS SENTINEL

SIREN—Calling them “an important resource in our communities,” the Northwest Alliance Community Foundation (NACF) presented four Burnett and Polk County food shelves with a certificate Friday evening entitling each of them to a gift of $2,220.25 for their treasuries. The checks will be mailed later in June. The four food shelves are Grantsburg Area Food Shelf, Ruby’s Pantry and Garden of Siren, Connections Food Shelf and More in Webster and the Family Pathways Food Shelf in Frederic. The fundraising total of $8,881 was divided equally among the four participating food shelves. The money came from an NACF fund drive in May. Its success was spurred promises from three anonymous donors to double the NACF funds up to $4,200. NACF publicized the drive in local newspapers and via other methods and raised the $4,200 and more. “This is the first fundraiser we have done, and we appreciate all who contributed to it and all who helped publicize and organize it,” said NACF’s Jennifer Turrentine. “We look forward to doing it again next year.”

The gifts were presented during the second annual Friendraiser Fundraiser Fair Friday evening at Tesora Restaurant Center in Siren. Fifteen non-profit organizations from the two counties set up tables to present information to the public about their organization. In addition to the food shelf donations, NACF also contributed funds to many area non-profit organizations in Polk and Burnett counties in two categories, as follows: NACF Environmental Fund Grants Burnett County Family Resource Center, Inc. $650; Ice Age National Trail $250; North County Pedalers $250; Frederic Arts $300. NACF Spring Granting Cycle Farm, Feral and Stray, serving Polk and Burnett counties $500; Burnett County Literacy, serving Burnett County $500; Friends of Larsen Family Public Library, serving Webster $500; and St. Croix Festival Theatre, serving Polk and Burnett counties $500. Said NACF Board Chair Reneé Nañez, “It was such an honor to give out these grants. It’s hard to believe how far Northwest Alliance Community Foundation has come in just four years.”
