GOVERNMENT CENTER—Keith Christenson, 54, Grantsburg plead no contest to one count of lewd and lascivious behavior in public, a misdemeanor, last week and avoided what could have been a traumatic jury trial. The 12-person jury trial for the felony case of Christenson was cancelled last week as his attorney and District Attorney Bill Norine reached an agreement. That agreement amended the initial charges of two felony counts of exposing genitals, pubic area or intimate parts to a child to the misdemeanor charge of lewd and lascivious behavior. Christenson “After going over the facts of the case

This year while the Packers attempt to make it to the Super Bowl there will be artwork hanging in the stadium by a Grantsburg alumni. She saw the post online and at first did not want to click on it to see more. “I kind of happened by happenstance,” Carolyn Meyers said. “The contest had been out for about three months and I had just seen that there was a week left before it was due.” Myers graduated from Grantsburg High School in 2015 and has since been working on getting her degree in Art Education at the University of Wisconsin - La Crosse. She did a watercolor painting titled, “Building the heart of Green Bay,” which shows the transformation of the Packers from the early days of Hagemeister Park to training camp bike rides at Lambeau Field now. Myers said she saw the contest on Facebook for an “artistic representation of 100 years of Packers Football.” She got to work and over the course of three days she got it done. “It took about 10 hours total, but that’s how I like to do my painting,” Myers said. “I just get in the zone. I just sat down and cranked it out. It was a really fun process.” There were three winners selected for the contest – one from a middle school student, one from a high school student and one from a university or technical college student. All of the artwork was submitted online, around 400 entries, and then was sent out to art teachers all across the state for judging. Winners were awarded a $5,000 donation to their school’s art program, their piece of artwork will be displayed throughout the entire 2018 season and were invited to Lambeau Field for the unveiling of the artwork. Myers and her family were invited to Lambeau Field on July 17 for the unveiling of her artwork. The Packers were holding

their annual Suite Holders Tasting event. “It was a really nice way to unveil the artwork, even though the event was more about the food,” Myers said. Myers went on a tour of Lambeau Field with her family and said the experience was very personal. “The guides treated us all like family, which is what the Green Bay Packers have always been about for me,” Myers said. “They were real relaxed and asked us, “do you want to go on to the field?” and “let’s go through these back tunnels.” Myers also spoke briefly about the origins of her passion for art. “Yes, my love of making art definitely started when I was growing up in Grantsburg,” Myers exclaimed. “Mr. Tomczak is very proud.” Myers was talking about Jeremy Tomczak the Grantsburg High School Art teacher. “Carolyn’s artwork being selected is such a wonderful recognition!” Tomczak exclaimed. “Carolyn sets the bar high with her art and creative energy. She leads by example

and inspires others, including the teen artists I work with.” He added that she has indeed made Grantsburg High School and UWL campus very proud of Myers’ accomplishment. Myers said that to her the Green Bay Packers always meant family. It even says so in her artist statement for the piece. “The Green Bay Packers family

has always been built with the fans in mind and this is shown through how the players are within the scene of tailgating. I included the placement of my family in the very background because my family has been a part of the history, through being shareholders and cheering until our voices were gone.”

PRIMARY: Republican candidates on primary ballot CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

Republican candidates Governor Scott Walker: Incumbent Scott Walker was elected in 2010, won a 2012 recall and was re-elected in 2014.

this is more lewd and lascivious behavior than it is the original felony charge,” Norine said. As part of the deferred prosecution agreement Judge Melissia Mogen told Christenson he must not commit any further crimes, he must maintain absolute sobriety and is to have no contact with the victims for a year from the plea date. He must also have a mental health evaluation done and an alcohol and other drug assessment (AODA) and follow-up on recommendations from both. The deferred prosecution agreement includes a misdemeanor case of possession of drug paraphernalia. If he follows the guidelines set in the agreement, the charges will be dismissed in one year. After Mogen explained all the stipulations of the agreement to Christenson, she asked how he pleads and he said, “guilty.” At that point his attorney, Nathan M. Cockerham, stopped the proceedings to explain that he actually wishes to enter a no-contest plea. Mogen understood after Christenson explained his confusion and then officially entered his plea of no-contest. According to the criminal complaint, in March 2017 a Burnett County Social worker was conducting a forensic interview of a female, who was 16 at the time, about Christenson exposing his genitals in front of her. The victim said the incident occurred on March 3 2017, and another female was in the house, age 8. The two were dancing in the living room of the residence. At this point the 8-year-old told Christenson to put on some clothes, as he was allegedly walking around in a button-up shirt and boxers. He did not put more clothes on. The 16-year-old then said that around 5 a.m., Christenson came into the living room and sat in a rocking chair near the 8-year-old. The older girl said that when Christenson got up from the chair, she saw that he was naked. She continued to explain that Christenson was masturbating in the hallway of the residence. Christenson allegedly asked if she “wanted to rub him.” After that the 16-yearold pretended to fall back to sleep. She added that Christenson asked her if she was going to get him into trouble. The plea hearing took place in the court chambers on July 26, there Norine said this case involved a lot of work between both sides. This included extensive interviews with the victims. “In this case we had extensive contact with the victims and they were the ones that did not want this go to trial,” Norine said. “So we avoided the trauma of going to trial. I’m very pleased with this result.” Norine continued to explain he does not believe Christenson is a pedophile and that during this incident he was very intoxicated. Judge Mogen said Cockerham and Norine both told her that this is not something Christenson is regularly engaged in and that he was most likely “extremely intoxicated” when this occurred. While Mogen explained the conditions to Christenson he began to get emotional and she took note of that when accepting the agreement. “I can see you getting emotional about this,” Mogen said as Christenson wiped the tears from his eyes. “You are tearing up. That shows you’re taking this seriously.” That moment was part of the reason Mogen accepted the deferred judgement of conviction in this case. If he does not follow the terms of the agreement the charges will be revisited by the Court.

Thrifty shopping

Thrift shops or second-hand stores are great. They are a collection of lightly used goods that are being sold at a price point anyone can be satisfied with and the money usually goes to a good cause. In Milwaukee, Goodwill stores and Salvation Army donation centers are all over the place amongst other mom and pop thrift stores. My introduction to these establishments was back when we would clean out our dressers as kids with clothes that no longer fit and could not be passed down to a younger brother. Those clothes were designated for donation. So throughout my childhood there was always a big black yard waste bag (or bags) around that were labeled for Goodwill. I am a novice when it comes to these establishments and only began visiting them in the last couple of years. Around six years ago, pop culture taught me about Sentinel the glory of thrift shops. Benjamin Haggerty (aka MackelEditor more) wrote about the pleasures of Jonathan Richie thrift shops in 2012. In his hit song “Thrift Shop,” Haggerty describes the joy of going into these types of establishments with only $20 and walking out like a king. I bought my current stereo from a second-hand store for $12.50. It’s actually a home-theatre in a box, which should have cost me around $200. I have a buddy in Milwaukee that is the king of the thrift shops. It’s probably more like an addiction. He has a drinking glass collection that is massive; steins, mugs, pint glasses, tumblers, etc. – he has hundreds, most of them bought at second-hand stores. (Just a heads up) If either of us win the jackpot, we’ll be quitting our day jobs and opening a bar in Milwaukee with his glassware. This weekend, I went around to a few different places to get a feel for what’s out there. I’m always on the lookout for a few keys things at any type of second-hand stores; books, vinyl, hats, ties and old school suit coats. Going around town on Saturday, I ran into a lot of square dancing records, like an entire crate full at multiple stops. Among those records were a slew of Christmas, polka and American military music. I have a couple of different John Philip Sousa albums, so I’m set on patriotic music. Any good second-hand store will have obscure pop albums on vinyl from some guy in the 70s that no one remembers, but looks like the embodiment of 1976. They also tend to have at least one Barbara Streisand album. One year, when I was not so financially set and eating Ramen on a daily basis, I had to buy one of those for my Mom for her birthday. Just like all book stores, Tom Clancy novels are overexposed. I did not see any old school suit coats that fit my odd-shaped body or many hats at all. All in all, it was a decent experience. Lastly, only five Sunday’s left before the NFL season starts again. Gotta question? Gotta tip? It’s easy to contact me, give me a call at 715-463-2341 or shoot me an email editor@burnettcountysentinel.com. See ya next week.

That’s a good bake I have a confession to make – I’m hooked on the Great British Baking Show and I’m OK with the world knowing. The show airs in our country on public broadcasting and past seasons can be found on Netflix, where I first watched it with granddaughter Sephie in May. Sephie, who turns 10 on Aug. 26, has a talent and interest in baking so From the Publisher’s the show was right up her alley. Desk My other daughters had talked Tom Stangl about the program d I dismissed di i d the notion, thinkand ing that it was another “reality” show where everything was staged. I truly believe “reality” television and social media are two of the modern day deadly sins, but I’m getting off topic. So I watched the show with Sephie. A group of 10 to 13 amateur bakers travel to a country setting where they bake three things in a tent over the course of a weekend. All of the contestants prepare the same item for one of the “bakes,” which are judged by Mary Berry and Paul Hollywood. Yes, those are their names. Two female comedians, Sue Perkins and Mel

Giedroyc, are the hosts of the program, offering some comic relief, encouragement and consolation. At the end of the weekend, one person is named “Star Baker” and one person is eliminated. In the finale, three compete to win the title. The winner receives a crystal plate and bragging rights – no cash prize. If this sounds boring, I can assure you it is not. The producers do a great job getting a mix of ages, experiences and ethnicities in the cast. There’s usually a scrappy senior citizen, a student, some working stiffs and housewives. In short, there’s someone for anyone to relate to and cheer on in the competition. The audience gets to know more about the contestants as the weeks go by, finding someone to love and someone to hate, depending on your point of view. The large pavilion that is the set has contestants in close quarters as they prepare everything from bread to pastries to cakes and pies. Some of the items they are asked to make are unfamiliar to the bakers, so some improvisation is required, providing an opportunity for things to go very well, or very, very wrong. Even though these are amateurs and the stakes are not high, there is lots of room for drama. I have read that in the early days of the

series, producers were trying to get more of the classic reality TV drama by amplifying issues. To their credit, the judges and hosts refused to play along and actively pushed back, making the show be about celebrating the uniqueness of the individual in an environment of support. If that isn’t something we need as a society now, I will eat my hat. Well, maybe a gooseberry torte with Swiss meringue. Yes, that’s a thing I learned from watching the show. Like other successful British shows, American television has sought to duplicate the success of the program. A clearly inspired knock off, down to the set design and format is Making It, a new show that premiered July 31 on NBC where crafters make creations and challenges, just like the Great British Baking Show. The current season is just past the half way point and airs on Friday and Sunday nights on PBS. Give it a try, you’ll be hooked. 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.

Wisconsin Farmers Union responds to trade aid, urges long-term solution DARIN VON RUDEN WISCONSIN FARMERS UNION PRESIDENT

The Trump administration announced last week a $12 billion plan to provide emergency aid to farmers to offset damages from the ongoing trade war with China and other trading partners. The programs that USDA will use in their relief efforts include the Market Facilitation Program, a Food Purchase and Distribution Program, and a Trade Promotion Program. The aid would be coordinated through the Commodity Credit Corporation, a Depression-era program that was created to “stabilize, support, and protect farm income and prices”. “Wisconsin Farmers Union appreci-

ates this gesture but urges the administration to swiftly resolve trade conflicts before further damage is inflicted on rural America,” said Wisconsin Farmers Union President Darin Von Ruden. “Ultimately, farmers would rather rely on fair prices for their products than on government handouts.” Von Ruden stressed that the emergency Von Ruden relief is not a long-term solution. “While this is a generous emergency package, it is expected to only cover damages in this first round of the trade conflict,” he noted. “The costs of the tariffs are being

accrued across the countryside daily, in a time when many family farms are already hurting.” Von Ruden emphasized the importance of making sure the emergency relief is distributed fairly across the agricultural community, noting, “It’s vital that relief payments get into the hands of family farmers and aren’t solely channeled to large corporate agribusinesses.” In a statement released July 24, National Farmers Union voiced support for the president’s efforts to improve fair trade relationships with trading partners, but expressed weariness of the administration’s go-it-alone, bull-ina-china-shop approach. “While we appreciate the move to

provide stopgap assistance, this plan is a short-term fix to a long-term problem,” NFU President Roger Johnson said. “The administration must develop a support mechanism that will mitigate the significant damage that is being inflicted upon our most vital international markets for years to come. They should do this by working with Congress to ensure farm bill programs provide enough assistance to farmers when markets collapse.” “Market prices for farm products are plunging from already very low levels, and it’s been estimated that farmers lost more than $13 billion last month alone due to trade disruptions,” Johnson added.

Newspapers threatened GENE JOHNSON

SINCE JANUARY, THE cost of newsprint has risen about 30 percent, basically from tariffs, not production costs or raw material costs. With these higher costs, publishers could be forced to raise prices on subscriptions, advertising, reduce staff or sell out. This is a big issue for small community newspapers, as well as large dailies. It came about in an unusual way. A New York hedge fund company purchased North Pacific Paper Company in Washington State last year and began to claim that it faced unfair competition from Canadian newsprint manufacturers. They went to the U.S. Department of Commerce, which has allowed the tariffs to continue while this whole issue is under investigation. It is interesting how a 250-employee company can have an effect on a U.S. industry of 600,000 employees. To date, nearly 70 percent of newspapers surveyed said they have reduced page count; in other words, fewer stories and less information. There are some bills in Congress, specifically The PRINT Act of 2018, that would suspend the tariffs while the Commerce Department directed the study on the effect it would have on the newspaper industry and report back. An investigative hearing was scheduled for July 17. The cost of newsprint when producing a newspaper is about 12 percent. There are also some projections of newsprint shortages occur-

ring because the five U.S. manufacturers’ paper mills are at capacity. Nearly all of the newsprint used in our community newspapers comes from Canada. We need our Congressional leaders to help us through this dilemma or a lot of public service information provided through local community newspapers will be lost, as well as jobs. FIVE NEWSROOM PEOPLE lost their lives in the Annapolis Capital Gazette shooting. It’s a big threat to the free flow of information. When people get angry with a newspaper, the first thing they want to do is kill the messenger. I have been threatened in my several decades of newspaper experience, but often those who are angry have brought the situation on themselves or they don’t understand the role of a newspaper, which is to report actual information taking place. Somehow our society is becoming more violent. There are many causes, such as Hollywood promoting violence on the big screen, the most popular TV programs centering around crime and violence, and families who are having difficult times raising their children. We need to find more ways to promote civility and respect in our society, which is being done through schools, colleges, seminars, books and mental health programs that are more readily available. The mental health stigma is lessening so people feel more free to be treated and to talk about it. Gene Johnson is publisher emeritus of Press Publications.

LETTER TO THE EDITOR Dear Editor: In the past three to four years, there have been three accidents at intersections in Wood River Township, resulting in three fatalities and several others injured. I am concerned that the brush and trees at these intersections are a contributing factor to these accidents. I have been advocating the clearing of the brush and trees from these intersections, to no avail. I am asking everyone who has an opinion on this matter to please attend the next Wood River Township meeting on Wednesday, Aug. 8, at 6:30 p.m., and voice your opinion. My objective is to make Wood River Township intersections safer, and this can be done with your help. Please feel free to contact me with questions or for more information.

To the voters of Burnett County, This letter is to address the upcoming sheriff ’s race in Republican Primary. For the past 26 years I have been with the Burnett County Sheriff ’s Office and have served as sheriff for the last three and one-half years. During this time, I have served in many different capacities while employed here. I am endorsing Ryan Bybee for Sheriff of Burnett County in this primary. A little over 16 years ago I was conducting background investigations on several individuals who wanted to pursue a career in law enforcement in Burnett County. I conducted such an investigation on Ryan Bybee. I traveled to many points in the State of Wisconsin interviewing Sergeant Bybee’s references and previous employers. The results of this investigation were spotless. Ryan’s life was focused on becoming a law enforcement officer and because of this, he lived his life accordingly maintained an ethical and moral lifestyle. My recommendation was to hire Ryan Bybee as soon as possible. After Ryan was hired I was his field training officer and early on I recognized him as a prospective leader. It was enjoyable to spend this time with him because he wanted to learn and was a very good listener. Ryan later became a field training officer and did an excellent job training new recruits. Ryan has been an outstanding sergeant under my command, he has served this county very well. He believes strongly in accountability and will go to no end to get the job done successfully. Over the past several years I have gave Sergeant Bybee many tips on illegal drug activity in our county and he took action. He has been responsible for many drug arrests that involved methamphetamine and other dangerous drugs. As a result of these arrests we were able to solve many burglaries and thefts, these criminals were burglarizing to support their drug habits. Ryan was very instrumental in helping us get a very successful K-9 program. We now have a new deputy named “Tracker” and he has been a tremendous asset to the sheriff ’s office and our community. It took two years to make the K-9 program a success, Ryan showed his leadership in it’s development. Many roadblocks and red-tape had to be navigated to make this program happen, Ryan never gave up, and is now the supervisor of the K-9 program. Ryan has been involved in many other successful programs in the sheriff ’s office. One that stands out is the recreation officer program. Ryan built that program up from the ground and made it very successful. This program keeps our snowmobile and ATV trails safe by enforcing the laws enacted by our legislature. This keeps the trails safe for YOUR families to enjoy. This is just one example and there are many more just as successful. Ryan Bybee has the knowledge and experience to hold the office of Sheriff. He has earned the respect of the citizens of Burnett County and is a true law enforcement professional. Ryan understands the sheriff ’s office, he has worked here for the past 16 years, that gives him the inside knowledge required to lead the sheriff ’s office for years to come. August 14, 2018, the choice is simple, vote Ryan Bybee as Sheriff of Burnett County. /s/ Ronald Wilhelm

State investigator coordinates with local authorities in meth bust JONATHAN RICHIE SENTINEL EDITOR

BURNETT COUNTYâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Officers from Burnett and Washburn County Sheriff offices coordinated with a special agent from the Wisconsin Division of Criminal Investigations (DCI) in an effort to shut down a trafficking operation in Trade Lake. Thomas J. Hoff, 58, Trade Lake, was charged with four counts of delivery of methamphetamine, a class F felony, maintaining a drug trafficking place, a class I felony, possession of methamphetamine, a class I felony and possession of drug paraphernalia, a misdemeanor charge. David A. Hoff, 59, Trade Lake, was charged with maintaining a drug trafficking place, possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia. Bobbi J. Rasmussen, 39, Trade Lake, was charged with felony bail jumping. She has an open case in Polk County where she is charged with possession of Methamphetamine, possession of THC, possession of THC with intent, restricting or obstructing an officer, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a firearm by a convicted felon and felony bail jumping. According to the crim-

David Hoff

inal complaint, the three agencies made four controlled buys of methamphetamine in May and June at 11271 Mourning Dove Lane in the Town of Trade Lake. The buys were for varying weights. During the search on June 12 officers found a variety of glass pipes, which tested positive for the presence of methamphetamine. They also found over four grams of methamphetamine, a multitude of cell phones, a number of digital scales, gem bags and over 21 grams of marijuana. All three were interviewed at the residence during the search. David was transported to the Burnett County Jail and charged with possession of methamphetamine and possession of drug paraphernalia. Rasmussen was also booked at the Burnett County Jail for felony bail jumping. The complaint includes investigators summary of interviews with David and Rasmussen. David said he and his brother Thomas had been living at the residence for about a year. He said he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know any-

thing about the alleged methamphetamine and heroin distribution going on at the house. He added that Thomas used to be a drug user, but did not know what kind of narcotics his brother used. He also told investigators that â&#x20AC;&#x153;quite a fewâ&#x20AC;? people stop at the house every week and go upstairs to see his brother. Rasmussen told investigators she was at the house because she was trying to detox. She also said she was currently out on bond in four counties, Barron, Chippewa, Polk and Washburn and that when she was released from Washburn County Jail earlier that week, she used methamphetamine that same evening. Part of her bail agreement was that she was subject to random drug tests. Her urine tested positive for the presence of methamphetamine, amphetamines and benzodiazepines. Both David and Thomas are scheduled to have their preliminary hearing on Nov. 5 in front of Judge Melissia Mogen.

Pillow talk! No, not that kind of pillow talk! Real pillows. Custom-made, outdoor pillows for porches, pools, boats, so you can bring your own sense of style outdoors. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re also talking tablecloths and wall hangings that can be left outdoors because theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re weather resistant and mold and mildew resistant. All of these new products are brought to you by Carolineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cottage, a new textile company in Siren. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been talking to Carolyn Marlow, whose grandmother, Caroline Root, sewed 90 quilts a year, and who was part of four generations of Carolines sewing garments and quilts as a way of life. Carolyn has returned to her roots after 45 years of living and working in the southern states. The company is named after Carolynâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s grandmother. As we all know, tourism is an economic workhorse for Wisconsin that generates millions of tax dollars, and provides a broad range of employment that supports the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic health. Tourism reached $20.6 billion in 2017, of nearly 40 percent from 2011, and is second in state revenue. In fiscal 2017, the Department of Tourism funded 61 Joint Effort Marketing projects, awarding a total of more than $1.1 million. Visitor expenditures from these projects will exceed $34 million. Burnett County was a recipient. It is in this context, that we spoke with Ms. Marlow. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was inspired to start my business after attending the Webster, Wisconsin Quilt Show in October 2016,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was impressed

with the workmanship of the quilts and wall hangings.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wisconsinites love their outdoor living, especially in the summer, and I thought there was an opportunity to enhance that experience, to bring indoor decor outdoors. I designed a line of pillows, tablecloths, and wall hangings that could be left outdoors in the sun and rain year after year without suffering damage. We use outdoor fabric, and double stitching â&#x20AC;&#x201C; all the things that contribute to durability and long life. Now people donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to worry about decor being ruined by sun or rain.â&#x20AC;? With so many pillows for sale online, why would there be a market for these pillows? The answer is that â&#x20AC;&#x153;we use outdoor images, and beyond that, pillows from Carolineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cottage can be made with the customerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own choice of design, allowing for the creation of a signature look. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Beyond that,â&#x20AC;? said Ms. Marlow, â&#x20AC;&#x153;pillows that last season after season are very economical.â&#x20AC;? Carolineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cottage looks to contribute to our economy. A display is located at Emilyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Luncheon Antiques and Crafts in Webster, a well-known establishment run by Marilyn Meyer, who said â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like to provide opportunities to small start-ups to display products at The Loft at Emilyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s.â&#x20AC;? So, you are invited to come and take a look at the work of one of Sirenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most recent residents, who hails from a long line of Wisconsinites. For more information, contact Carolyn Marlow at 706.527.1844 or marlowcarolyn@gmail.com.

This winter wigwam has seen better days. Rebuilding of the structure will begin with gathering of ironwood on Tuesday, July 31.

FIEDLER FORD, INC.

DANBURY– The Wisconsin Humanities Council has awarded a major grant to the Burnett County Historical Society to work with the St. Croix Band of Chippewa Indians to rebuild a winter wigwam at The Forts Folle Avoine historical site. The wigwam will be built by youth from the St. Croix Ojibwe as well as other volunteers under the guidance of Mark Soulier of the tribe and Jackson Buxton, interpreter at The Forts. Harvesting the wood for the project and construction of the wigwam will take place over this summer and the public will have chances to experience and participate in the process. The winter wigwam has always been an important structure in the Ojibwe village featured at The Forts. Interpreters use the structures in the Ojibwe village – a winter wigwam, a summer wigwam, a winter lean-to, and cooking areas – to help tell the story of the traditional way of life during the fur trade. A major goal of the grant is to increase understanding of the culture of the Ojibwe people in Burnett County. The new winter wigwam will be built in the traditional way, with cooperation and management by tribal members. The project emphasizes the process involved in building the wigwam, from harvesting the wood and bark needed, to creating and furnishing the structure. A series of workshops and events are planned to pass on “how-to” skills, including making mats from cattails, working with birch bark, and building the structure itself. Forts Folle Avoine Historical Park preserves and teaches the history of Burnett County, with a special focus on the Fur Trade era.

A night to unite VICKIE BAUER, LEGAL ADVOCATE COMMUNITY REFERRAL AGENCY

National Night Out (NNO) was founded in 1984 as a fun way to encourage trust and camaraderie between law enforcement officers and community members. It is sponsored by the National Association of Town Watch in the United States and Canada, and this year will be NNO’s 35th year of existence. The event originally began with neighbors simply turning on their porch lights and sitting outside their homes. This simple tradition eventually grew so large that every state now participates. The event is celebrated differently across our nation but always focuses around law enforcement officers taking an opportunity to meet those they serve in the community. In Burnett County, NNO is always a hit. Last year, over 1,200 people came out for the night of community fun. The officers from Burnett County served a free meal for everyone to enjoy. At NNO, attendees not only get a free meal but they also get to enjoy various booths from businesses, fun giveaways, and games for the kids. The most popular kiddy attractions include a bouncy house and rock climbing wall. So, are you and your family looking for a fun and free evening with family and friends? NNO is just around the corner on Tuesday, Aug. 7! This event will take place at Crooked Lake Park in Siren and at the Grantsburg Fire Hall in Grantsburg from 5 - 8 p.m. We hope you will join other community members in coming out for this summer night of fun!

Red Cross blood shortage continues as thousands answer the call to give ST. PAUL — Thousands of people have responded to the emergency call for blood and platelet donations issued by the American Red Cross in early July. Still, there continues to be an emergency need for donors of all blood types, especially type O, to give now to address a severe blood shortage. Red Cross blood donations are being distributed to hospitals faster than they are coming in, and right now there is less than a five-day blood supply on hand. The Red Cross strives to keep a five-day supply of blood to meet the needs of patients and to be prepared for emergencies that require significant volumes of donated blood products. “Patients don’t get a summer break from the need for lifesaving treatments, so it is critical that hospitals have access to blood products each and every day,” said Sue Thesenga, communications manager of the North Central Blood Services Region. “We sincerely appreciate those who have responded to the call to help save lives, but the emergency need remains. Those who haven’t rolled up a sleeve to give are urged to do so today.” There is a particular need for type O blood, which plays an important role in ongoing patient care and emergencies. Type O positive is the most transfused blood type and can be given to patients with any Rh-positive blood type. Type O negative is the universal blood type and can be given to any patient. It’s what emergency room personnel reach for when there is no time to determine the blood type of patients in the most serious situations. In thanks, all those who come to donate blood or platelets July 30 through Aug. 30, 2018, will receive a $5 Amazon.com Gift Card via email. (Restrictions apply; see amazon.com/gc-legal. More information and details are available at RedCrossBlood.org/Together.)

Donors of all blood types are urged to make an appointment to give now using the free American Red Cross Blood Donor App, by visiting RedCrossBlood.org or by calling 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800733-2767). AMERICAN RED CROSS BLOOD DRIVES AND DONATION CENTERS Local blood donation opportunities throughAug. 15: • Webster: Aug. 8, 11:30 a.m. - 5:30 p.m., Community Center, 7421 Main St. W. • Frederic: Aug. 11, 9:30 a.m. 2:30 p.m., Lewis United Methodist Church, 3482 115th St. • Grantsburg: Aug. 13, 2 - 7 p.m., T-Dawgs Grill and Conference Center, 429 E.

HOW TO DONATE BLOOD Simply download the American Red Cross Blood Donor App, visit RedCrossBlood.org or call 1-800RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) to make an appointment or for more information. All blood types are needed to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood donor card or driver’s license or two other forms of identification are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17

years of age in most states (16 with parental consent where allowed by state law), weigh at least 110 pounds and are in generally good health may be eligible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements. Blood and platelet donors can save time at their next donation by using RapidPass® to complete their pre-donation reading and health history questionnaire online, on the day of their donation, before arriving at the blood drive. To get started, follow the instructions at RedCrossBlood.org/RapidPass or use the Blood Donor App. ABOUT THE AMERICAN RED CROSS The American Red Cross shelters, feeds and provides emotional support to victims of disasters; supplies about 40 percent of the nation’s blood; teaches skills that save lives; provides international humanitarian aid; and supports military members and their families. The Red Cross is a not-forprofit organization that depends on volunteers and the generosity of the American public to perform its mission.

Wisconsin Sales Tax Holiday runs Aug. 1 -5 MADISON—Starting Wednesday, August 1, Wisconsin shoppers will enjoy a five-day sales tax holiday. During this time, they will not be charged state and local sales tax on a variety of items including clothing, computers and school supplies. “Due to sound fiscal management and a strong

economy, the state had almost a $400 million budget surplus,” said Department of Revenue Secretary Richard Chandler. “Governor Walker and the Wisconsin State Legislature have determined that some of that surplus should be returned to taxpayers in the form of a sales tax holiday.” During the Sales Tax Holiday, purchases of these items are not taxable: • Clothing – sales price of each item must be $75 or less; • Computer purchased by a consumer for their personal use – sales price of each computer must be $750 or less; • School computer supplies purchased by the consumer for their personal use – sales price of each item must be $250 or less; • School supplies – sales price of each item must be $75 or less. Many other items are also included. For a complete list check out www.revenue.wi.gov/taxholiday The sales tax holiday will be particularly beneficial to families doing back-to-school shopping, but all taxpayers will be able to make purchases of eligible items without paying sales tax.

If you want a dog dog, but not the she shenanigans associated with puppies, young adults are a great choice. You know how big they will be, their personalities are set, and they probably won’t chew on your things or have accidents in the hall. This week features two young adult dogs who are ready to find families to love. Miss Meadow is a dark gray Weimaraner who is about 50 pounds, and - as her photo shows - she loves her ttoys and watter. At three or four o years old, y sshe’s done growing, g but she still b iis a very llively girl w who likes a activity. In ffact, shelter Meadow staff found out she is pretty good at fence jumping! Meadow is good with kids, housetrained, and gets along well with others. She would be a great dog to do agility training with or any activity that engages her mind and body. Meadow is just an outgoing, friendly girl who’d love a family who is on the go as much as she is. Patches looks a bit funny right now, but he wants to assure you that he is ready for a family. He is a three or four year old Great Pyrenees mix w who is a b bit underw weight right n now at 94 p pounds. He w was one m matted, d dirty mess w when he a arrived at H HSBC, so w while he’s Patches missing a lot of fur right now, he’ll grow back that fluffy coat in no time. Patches is very friendly, has gentle manners and loves people and kids. He is just looking for someone to pal around with; he may be big, but Patches is a pretty mellow guy. With all the animals in residence, both canine and feline, cleaning supplies are always needed. Cat litter is a hot item, and the dogs always appreciate creamy peanut butter (it is a great way to teach leash manners). If you are not able to take in a new friend but want to help, donations are always welcome! Check the HSBC web page for wish lists, fund raising programs, and a donation link.

SIREN—The Burnett County Air Show–also known as the Gandy Dancer Fly-In/Drive-In– has been quite a success in years past but not quite as exciting as it was this year! The show is sponsored by over ninety local businesses, all contributing portions of their profits to benefit the community. It was hard to miss the banners going up early in July in Siren, reminding passers-by that the air show was coming and showing each local business’ support. What a fantastic way to support the people in Burnett County! Speaking of the people, attendance was incredible! There were over 44 percent more people driving in to watch the air show – over 2,800 people, than previously recorded. That does not include the reports of the Fourwinds Grocery parking lot being filled to capacity with on-lookers, Airport Road south of the airport filled with people parking along the side, those who came in their airplanes, or the volunteers who arrived prior to the counting of incoming traffic at the entrance to County Road K. There were a total of five aerobatic acts, including a group of several skydivers from Wissota Jumpers, who opened the show. Spectators watched from the bleachers borrowed from Webster Schools. Weather is always an issue when it comes to air shows. The Gandy Dancer air show is familiar with

the disappointment that comes with a rain and thunderstorm prediction. Last year, weather held back one of the performers, Susan Dacy, who keeps her plane in Illinois. She flew in a day early this year in order to make sure she could make the performance. And what a performance As her website states: “Step back in time as Susan Dacy puts her 450 hp Super Stearman, ‘Big Red,’ through its paces with a dazzling display of barrel rolls, slow rolls, Cuban eights, loops and much more, in a style reminiscent of the barnstorming era of flying.” The Vanguard Squadron flies a dazzling multi-ship formation aerobatic performance.

speed for these 19-foot planes is over 200 mph. The Squadron flies 10-15 air show events each year, flying across the country promoting ethanol as the fuel for the future. This year they sent a two-plane group that amazed and delighted the spectators. This event, which offers free admission to all (including free parking), began with a pancake breakfast hosted by volunteers from the local Ag Club as a benefit for their organization. More pancake breakfasts were sold this year than previously and their wild rice pancakes will go down in history as the best in Burnett County. Mark your calendars! Next year’s event is planned for July 20, 2019.

Noah got to play the offensive side of the ball and Sequoia got to play on the defensive side of the ball, but with the way the game played out, the offense got twice as many plays due to turnovers and two recovered kicks. We out rushed the South

364 yards to -1 so our defense was very sound and our offense of the rushing game was very sound as well. I hope each of the boys had an awesome time. It will be a memory that sticks with them and myself for the rest of our lives. It was really fun to play/coach with guys from other Lakeland schools. That isn’t something that many kids get to experience. Contrary to the belief of many fans in Dragonland, the coaches and players from Luck are some of the best people around. I really enjoyed my opportunity to coach. Thank you to everyone that donated to allowed Noah, Sequoia and myself to go. I wish my boys nothing but the best in the future. Once a Dragon, always a Dragon.” Coach Ryan Karsten The South defeated the North 27-7 in the Large School game. In the Small School event, the South narrowly defeated the North 22-21 on a field goal. Area members of the North Team were Kobe Berghammer and Max Narges of Cumberland, Cal Rosen and Noah Wieczorek from Clear Lake, and Logan Hendrickson of Unity. Assistant coaches from the area were Chris and Corey Berghammer of Cumberland. The WFCA All-Star Games serve as a fundraiser for the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin. This year’s coaches and players raised more than $487,000.

I know, you thought I disappeared because I have not written an article for such a long time. Not so, I am here and will be for a while longer. I know the word on the street is that I have retired. Not yet, but I will be retired as of Jan. 1, 2019. This is bittersweet. I have been in my position so long it seems I have always been the director of Interfaith Caregivers of Burnett County. It has been many years but, actually, there was a time when I was not the director. I was in college, getting married, having babies, getting unmarried, watching my kids grow and go to college and datie the Packers– well, not all of them but a few. Then I married again, wandered around the Air Force with Denny and then moved to Webster. That was when I became part of Interfaith. When I think of it that was quite a long time ago. Never a dull moment though. Interfaith became my passion and consumed a lot of my time. Yup, there were times when I thought I couldn’t do it anymore, but when you love your job, little setbacks are just a bump in the road. I’ll never forget those bumps, but I’ll never forget how Interfaith Caregivers became a big part of my life and my heart. I keep saying that Interfaith is my baby and I am not ready to let her go to college yet, but it is time. I’m writing this now because I am introducing the next director. Actually, you get two co-directors. LuAnn and Larry Ebersold will be taking over my duties. I have tried to warn them that a parttime job is about 50 - 60 hours a week, but they will just have to find out for themselves. I know things will change, but

METRO CREATIVE

I have put the director’s job in very capable hands. They better believe that I am still around and watching them carefully. Sounds creepy, doesn’t it? Just a side note, I will be available for speaking engagements to introduce Larry and LuAnn if someone would like to invite us. No refreshments necessary, I will bring cookies. I have to make it very clear, I am retiring, but Denny is not. He will still be the coordinator of the Heat A Home project, Food delivery project, and Christmas for Kids. People are asking “where are you guys going?” It is not us “guys,” it is just me and I am going to clean my house completely (which I have not had time to do in years), organize files I have let fall by the wayside, and I literally mean “fall.” You would know what I mean if you could see my file cabinet. And I will become a volunteer for Interfaith. I want to volunteer at the humane society too, but Denny is sort of looking at me funny when I say that. He is afraid I

will bring dogs or cats home with me. The lady who grooms my dogs is also a breeder of champions and occasionally a puppy is born with a malady of one kind or another and of course, I will take any and all of those. Yes, it is true, Denny will no longer let me go to the groomer alone. He always says I need adult supervision. Speaking of cats, we have a cat. True, most people who come to our house have never seen her because she is elusive but, still, she lives here. My question is this, where did she come from and how long has she been here? Honestly, we have no idea. It just seems she has always been a part of the family. We see her two or three times a day, so we know she lives here, but it is a mystery where she came from. If anyone just dropped her off at our house, I want you to know she fine and loved and well fed. I will be writing a column for the next few months and include statistics about what Interfaith has been doing. This was just not the time to do this. I will write a column when I hand over the baton, but I have to work myself up to that. This is a tough transition. I do want to say though for the next month, you will see us everywhere. We will be at National Night Out on Aug. 7, we will do a pancake breakfast at the Webster Community center on Aug. 11 and we will be serving at Music in the Park on Aug. 16. We also have a meat raffle every Wednesday at Traders Roundabout (the old Moose Lodge), starting at 6 p.m.. It is good to be back writing again. And as I always say, any questions, just call me. ~Barb

What a difference a week can make. Things are pretty much back to normal here after the weekend with Water Cross. Just the normal noises of summer, children laughing on their way back from the pool, lawn mowers buzzing, revving motors of the motorcycles and trucks making their way up the hill. Making for beautiful summer days this week. The season of county and state fairs is upon us. Hope many of you were able to attend the Polk County Fair in St Croix Falls. With something for everyone to see and do! Even if its only the food! “National Night Out” starts at 5 p.m. on Tuesday, Aug. 7. Make sure to try and attend the event in your neighborhood. It’s what summer is all about– fun, food and families. We offer Wi-Fi, coffee and goodies, and check out the book nook. Questions on meal reservations, hall rentals, or other requests, call the center at 715-463-2940 or email us at gburg118@gmail.com. Coming Events: • Business meeting – the third Tuesday each month, 12:30 p.m. Everyone Welcome! • National Night Out—Tuesday, Aug., 7, 5 p.m., Grantsburg Fire Hall. • Bloodmobile— Aug. 13, 2 - 7 p.m., T-Dawgs. • Evening Dining—Thursday,Aug. 16, 5 p.m.(reservations needed) • Historical Society—See you at the Fair!

Hazel Hoffman was the winner of the dollar bingo. We had some new players so this was fun. We always have room for more players. Can you believe that July only has a few more days before it will be gone. I don’t know where the time goes but it sure goes fast. The papers are advertising specials on school supplies. Our 500 winners were Carl Link, Dwaine Bentley, Dave Peterson, Gerry Vogel and Marilyn Niles. Dean Elken and John LaFond shared the 9 bid. Our spade winners were Ben Anderson, Sue Christensen and Tony Rutter. Marie Bentley got the 9 bid. Some of our seniors used the van to go to Sandstone for a country music program on Saturday, July 28. Don’t forget the van is there for you to use for programs, shopping. It just costs you a dollar to use the van. Dates To Remember: • Aug. 7 —National Night Out, Crooked Lake Park, 5:30 p.m. • Aug. 8 —Board meeting and potluck, 11:30 a.m. • Aug. 14 — Primary election • Aug. 16 —Monthly meeting, 9:30 a.m.

What kind of Rest are you getting?

Pastor Brad Moore Grace Baptist

How is your soul? It is a rather important question donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you think? We find it necessary to take a break from our everyday routines and â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;get awayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; for a day, a weekend or a longer vacation. Our desire for physical rest and relaxation is a real need that drives us to seek time away. But what about rest for your soul? Jesus recognizes our deep need for â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;soul restâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; when He said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and

you will find rest for your souls.â&#x20AC;? (Matthew 11:28-29) This is very good news for any of us who ever deal with stress, worry, conflict, discouragement, anxiety, overload, frustration, or whatever word we use to describe the difficulties of life affecting our soul. The promise of Jesus is that He can, and will, give you peace and rest if you would take the time to allow Him to work a little deeper in your life. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think most people experience true soul rest. We want to, but we tend to look for

If you are not sure how, seek a mature Believer to help you. Pray and meditate on Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Word. Talk with a trusted Christian friend who will speak truth in love to you.
