Childcare to merge under one roof BY TODD BECKMANN SENTINEL

SIREN—With the current Kid City childcare in Siren bursting at the seams and the limited hours of Kid Country childcare in Webster, owner Chris Phernetton is happy to announce a future home for both. Because of the success of the Early Head Start program, Phernetton said current enrollments have outgrown the Webster and Siren sites and after looking at moving to a new site, she settled on the Lakeview Event Center. “It has always been my dream to combine the two centers so we can offer expanded hours to both communities,” she explained. “Many parents work evenings and weekends and are in need of childcare for those hours.” With the purchase of the Lakeview Event Center, that dream can now be realized. While the current Siren site is open from 5:30 a.m. to 12:30 a.m. seven days a week, the Webster site is only open 5:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. Monday through Friday. “If there is a school-aged child enrolled in our Webster center, even though they get bused there after school, that child needs to be picked up at 6:30 p.m.,” Phernetton remarked. “If the folks are working, it presents a problem.” The new center will adopt the Siren center’s hours and she said both Siren and Webster Schools will transport kids who are enrolled in the program to the new center after school. Phernetton said only half the space will be utilized for childcare. “We knew the building was much larger than what we needed for our childcare center,” she pointed out. She began reaching out to other community agencies to see if there was an interest in combining into one location. “Currently, the Burnett County Family Resource Center, Community Referral Agency and Indianhead Community Action Agency (ICAA) are planning to join us,” Phernetton described. “We will be known as the Community Resource and Learning Center.” The purchase of the building will be complete in October.

Burns said one of the two has been released, and if the other hasn’t been released, he soon will be. by Todd Beckmann, Sentinel

‘Seusical, Jr.’ play at Grantsburg GRANTSBURG— More than 50 students in grades 4-10 will be presenting “Seussical Jr.” as the culmination of a Grantsburg Summer School project. Performances will be at 2:30 p.m. Friday, July 8 and at 7 p.m. Monday, July 11. “Seussical Jr.” is an adaptation for students of the musical “Seussical” that opened on Broadway in 2000. The show uses several story lines from familiar Dr. Seuss books to tell a story of the importance of faithfulness, open-mindedness and creativity, as well as being true to yourself. Readers will recognize Horton Hears a Who, Horton Hatches an Egg and Miss Gertrude McFuzz with the Cat in the Hat serving as the story teller who keeps the whole show moving. “It has been an intense summer project,” says director Linda Benge. “These talented and hard-working students are doing a great job. We are rehearsing the show in different sections in the mornings as regular summer school, and then putting it all together in several afternoon rehearsals. “The other shows we have done were adaptations of animated Disney movies. This is a Broadway show, and almost all the entire show is singing and dancing. These young students are amazing in what they have been able to accomplish.” Set pieces and costumes have been created by assistant director Debra Peterson and volunteer Karin Reinert, and capture the spirit of the show beautifully. Tickets will be available at the door.

JULY 6, 2016

Life in the big city If my 14 years in Grantsburg has taught me nothing else, it has taught me to appreciate small-town America. We moved here in 2002 from River Falls, a small college town of 10,000. I loved RF, not only because I went to college there and spent 20-plus years of my life there, it was close to the big-city happenings of Minneapolis and St. Paul, yet the St. Croix River kept our little burg seemingly isolated. Before we moved to Grantsburg, I was under the illusion Seems to that in RF we were living in small-town America. Me Boy, was I wrong. In fact, I was sure we had Todd Beckmann made a mistake moving here for about the first year we lived here — it was so small and I missed my favorite haunts of RF. But, that passed and I’ve come to enjoy the quiet and the slower pace of life. I know I too-often take that appreciation for granted, but it bubbled to the surface for me in late June when the wife and I did a whirlwind visit to Chicago. I don’t know that I would’ve gone except I get an e-mail blast each week from some travel site — outlining their travel deals of the week. Well, one week there was a deal offering a round-trip flight to Chi-town from Minneapolis for $46. Like a guy with whom we shared the shuttle to the hotel said, “you’d have to be daft not to want to take advantage.” We knew Chicago had an excellent mass-transit system and so, because we didn’t want to drive in that traffic and wouldn’t be renting a car, our hotel needed to have a shuttle system to-and-from the airport since we could catch a train from the airport to downtown. The Chicago Transit Authority (CTA) offered a three-day pass to take advantage of all CTA vehicles — buses or trains. How serendipitous since we were there for a three-day weekend. For less than what it would cost to rent a car for one day— let alone whatever the parking fees would have been downtown, plus the headache of driving amongst 2.7 million other people, we bought these CTA passes. What a deal! For each of us, we figured it was less than $2 every time we swiped our card to “ride the rails.” Sure, we may have lost some time riding backand-forth to the airport, but we sure got to see a lot of the city. In fact, one day we just rode the trains to different parts of the city as it was too hot to do much pedestrian sightseeing. It was fun to see the relaxed city on the weekend and then see those same relaxed Chicagoans all buttoned-up for the start of the work week on Monday. In addition, the trip was kind of a walk down memory lane for us. Since travel has been a big deal for us in our 26-plus years of marriage — we figure Chicago is where it all began 28 years ago. We have three pictures from that first trip in 1988 which have survived. We were able to locate two of those locales so we could get passers-by to snap a few photos of the happy couple so we’d have “then-and-now”pictures.

Will it play in Shanghai? In the olden days before focus groups, when touring vaudeville acts were the big entertainment in a community, Peoria, Ill. was a barometer to gauge an act’s popularity. If a singer, comedian or musical act “played well in Peoria,” they could do well anywhere. Vaudeville is long gone, and Peoria, I imagine, is still a fine place, but no longer the From the center of popular Publisher’s culture. Today, busiDesk nesses from enterTom Stangl tainment to tech to transportation look to see how well a product is received in China. In the time leading up to the real crisis in the automotive business, General Motors (GM) made the decision to keep Buick and shutter Pontiac and Saturn due to Buick’s popularity in China. Apparently in the growing middle class in China, nothing says “you have arrived” like owning a Buick. So, GM knows that Buick plays well in Shanghai, but how well will a Chinese-designed and manufactured Buick play in Peoria? We are about to find out. Buick’s new mid-size crossover sports util-

ity vehicle, the 2016 Envision, is arriving in showrooms now. The Envision is smaller than the topof-the-line Enclave and larger than the tiny Encore. Will it matter that it was made in China from the design board up? When you consider the global marketplace, nearly everything we purchase has components or parts made far away from where it is purchased. Japanese cars are made in Indiana. Nike running shoes are made in Asia. I doubt many of us give it a second thought. The same is true about entertainment. Recently, the computer and online game “World of Warcraft” was adapted for a series of movies. The first film, “Warcraft: The Beginning” opened last month to less-than-glowing reviews and box office receipts in America. In China, the film shattered box office records. It appears that about half of the players in the game’s online world are Chinese. The film brought in nearly as much in the first four days of release than the latest “Star Wars” movie did in its entire run. Translation: Americans are no longer the primary target for some things. British comedian Ricky Gervais once commented at an American awards show, “I’m from a little place called England. We used to

run the world before you.” It was funny, and oh so true. I feel more and more that way as I watch the globalization of many institutions. I can, on some level, understand the feelings of people who want the world to be the way it was before. The British just said that with their vote to exit the European Union. Some supporters of Donald Trump feel the same way about our nation. But, here’s the deal — there’s precious little to be done to change things. As an owner of four Pontiacs in my lifetime, I was upset with GM’s decision to shut down my model of transportation. Years later, I understand why it was done and I have moved my loyalties to another car manufacturer. That’s what we do – move on. As someone who played “Warcraft” decades ago, I went to the movie. It was enjoyable, but not great. I’ll probably pass on the now-inevitable sequel after sequel.

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.

Not such a brilliant idea I did a really dumb thing recently. My second and little dog, Ral, loves his walks, rooting around in grasses and underbrush, but mostly stays on the sidewalks, streets or gravel. He’s a fussy and high-maintenance little terrier-Dachshund mix that I took in as a foster almost four years ago. I might be fussy and cranky, too, with those crooked, stubby legs to carry around my otherwise solid torso. I call him my Velcro dog because everything sticks to his curly, course and somewhat wiry fur. Early on a morning that I had plans to fish later in the day, I came up with a ‘brilidea to manage Newbie in liant’ my time, get both dogs the North- exercised at the same time — usually walked woods separately — and still have the afternoon to Lori Callahan throw a line. Loading dogs, leashes, water and extra outerwear into the Honda, we took off for the trail. Ral is not very good with other dogs, though he loves most people. He especially dislikes ‘big’ dogs — and ‘big’ is relative to him at 17 pounds. He will go full force, if allowed, into attack mode and no mind that he will lose. The bigger his opponent, the harder he goes. Ral’s a “shoot and ask questions later” kind of guy. I worked with dogs of all sizes and breeds and the worst bite I ever got was from my own Ral. Because it was so early in the morning and quite chilly, I figured anyone that was out was on the water and I let him off leash when we arrived at the trail. Parents and dog owners alike, and I’m both, can relate to the simple pleasure of seeing your “kids” experience joy. Running along the trail, sniffing wherever they wanted, sometimes sprinting off into the wood at the sign of movement, those dogs were joyful and, in particular, Ral, as this off-leash trail walk was a new treat. I worked for another newspaper publication years ago and a duty was to go through old newspapers and pick out interesting tidbits to publish under the

GUEST EDITORIAL

“Ten Years Ago,” “Twenty-,” and so on section. It amused me that those early reports of activities usually ended with “A good time was had by all,” a popular conclusion of that day. Well, I’ll tell you, after we hiked for hours, breaking often for water and rest for Velcro-Dog, those words didn’t seem so silly after all, and were the exact words that filled my head: “A good time was had by all!” Until… My habit is to tick-check my dogs lightly at the car and thoroughly, once home. Big dog, Stella, springs into the back seat and I pick up Ral to put him in the car as well. I see he’s got the usual “greens” stuck to him all over and a couple ticks. Upon closer inspection, he’s got a lot, and upon turning him bellyside-up, he’s got hundreds. Away we go and I head straight to the Grantsburg Animal Hospital. It’s Saturday, it’s about quarter to noon, I have a 10- to 15-minute drive ahead and I’m really starting to sweat that anyone will be there at all. I arrived just as two young women were, in fact, closing up shop. They didn’t seem exactly thrilled that I showed up at the 11th hour with what was obviously not a 10-minute fix. I was told he must have gotten into a tick nest given the numbers that creepy-crawled all over him and now me. Those ticks must have held a jubilee singing “Pay-Dirt” songs when Ral ventured into their lair, reveling in their good fortune. Joy again that day. Until... Vet techs Lacey Watkins and Melinda Sells took Ral and me in, and Lacey took charge and attacked those ticks like a storm trooper. The three of us spent the next hour-plus bathing and plucking, bathing and plucking, with Lacey pulling a dozen ticks for every one of mine, and Melinda, in between plucking, minded the store and captured the escapees. Poor Ral —between two of his tiny toes alone, I pulled nearly a dozen ticks. So fleeting is joy. No more off-leash trails for Ral. I didn’t make it fishing that day either. I hope I pause to think it through the next time I have a brilliant idea. I’m still feeling ticks all over.

We can all help Wisconsin lakes HELEN WILKIE BIG DOCTOR LAKE ASSOCIATION

Wisconsin has a well-deserved reputation for the excellent boating, fishing and swimming that the state’s lakes afford. Residents and visitors count on the lakes for year-round fun (ice fishing, anyone?) And, businesses count on the dollars that residents and visitors spend. Everyone expects the lakes to be clean and healthy – and everyone needs to play a role for that to happen. Unfortunately, Big Doctor and other Wisconsin lakes are being hurt by an excess of phosphorus seeping into the water. The result is a huge overgrowth of algae that destabilizes fish communities, degrades habitats and disrupts ecosystems. The lakes are literally having the life choked out of them, and we need to make that stop. A certain amount of phosphorus in lakes is natural. The problem comes when things like fertilizers, manure, sewage, industrial effluent and storm water runoff enter the lakes. The common denominator of many of these sources of excess phosphorus is us. Here’s the good news: if people have created problems for our lakes, then people can solve them. We can fix this through the coordinated efforts of individuals, communities and the state and federal governments. Individuals can actually do a lot

without spending a lot of time or money. When you mow your grass, try to direct the clippings back onto your lawn. After you mow your lawn, sweep up any clippings on the street or sidewalk. Don’t wash clippings down storm drains. Planting a rain garden will help keep storm runoff from making its way to lakes. If you own a boat, check it for invasive species before entering or leaving a lake. Communities can work with their local governments, utilities and businesses to reduce phosphorus. For example, the Big Doctor Lake Association collaborated with the Burnett County Land and Water Conservation Department on a plan to study and manage aquatic plants. After determining that the local wastewater treatment plant was exceeding allowable levels of phosphorus discharge, the lake association approached the treatment plant about partnering on the issue, and together the two entities are seeking solutions. We can enlist the help of our state and federal governments by seeking grants for both short-term fixes of impaired lakes like Big Doctor, and longer-term management for all lakes. State and federal regulators can also help us put teeth into existing laws and lobby for new ones when needed. The point is that we all can – and should – do something to protect our beautiful lakes.

Fatality on U.S. 8 ST. CROIX FALLS—At 3:53 p.m. on Tuesday, June 28, Polk County Sheriff’s Department received a call of a two-vehicle crash on US Highway 8, approximately seven miles east of St. Croix Falls, resulting in one fatality. The crash investigation found that John Thomas Bibeau, a 64-year-old male from rural Balsam Lake, was traveling eastbound on US Hwy 8, operating his family’s 2006 Pontiac Montana gold-colored minivan. Bibeau was not seatbelted at the time. Also eastbound on US Highway 8 was Michael L. Malean, a 25-year-old male from Knapp, driving ahead of John Bibeau in a 2009 Chevrolet Silverado and towing a double axle trailer. Michael Malean had a front-seat passenger identified as Eric S. Stuart, a 27-year-old male from the Boyceville area. Prior to the crash, it was reported to law enforcement that Bibeau was traveling at a high rate of speed and had passed several vehicles before approaching the Malean truck. Upon catching the Malean vehicle, Bibeau ran into the trailer Malean was towing, sending both vehicles to the left, into and over the westbound lane and into the north ditch. Upon entering the ditch, Bibeau’s van caught and rolled onto the passenger side. Several good samaritans stopped and aided Bibeau by pulling him out of the overturned vehicle. They attempted life-saving measures until they were relieved by fire department personnel and First Responders. Due to the nature of the injuries sustained, a medical helicopter was called and landed at the scene; however, Bibeau had succumbed to injuries and died at the scene. Malean and his passenger in the Silverado pickup suffered minor injuries but were not transported. The investigators believe speed and possible pre-existing medical conditions may have been contributing factors for the crash. Assisting the Polk County Sheriff’s Office at the crash site were; the St. Croix Falls Fire Department, Balsam Lake Fire Department and First Responders, Lakes Area Ambulance Services, Life Link helicopter, and members of the Polk County Highway Department. The crash and death remains under investigation by the Polk County Sheriff’s Office and the Polk County Medical Examiner’s Office.

BURNETT COUNTY SENTINEL

www.burnettcountysentinel.com

Former Siren Subway employee sentenced SIREN—A former Siren Subway employee was sentenced in Burnett County Circuit Court last week to four years of probation after she pleaded no contest to stealing more than $20,000 in the 30 months she worked at the business. Melissa Jo Partlow, 30, of Frederic, was initially charged with two counts of theft of more than $10,000, which are Class G felonies, and two counts of theft of less than $2,500, misdemeanors. One of the conditions of her probation is that she pay $23,276.06 in restitution. According to court documents, Partlow was able to manipulate the cash register during cash transactions for food in such a way as to skim cash for herself, but ensuring the cash register system still balanced. She had done this during her time of employment from 2012 to 2015.

Melissa Jo Partlow

She was unable to complete the manipulation on credit card transactions. The owner of the store, Krista Struck, was reviewing surveillance tapes after a customer had complained about food quality. It was during that review when Struck noticed Partlow’s suspect behavior at the cash register. Further examination revealed the be-

havior wasn’t a one-time incident. Struck called the authorities to report her suspicions. During the investigation they were able to find and document six incidents of the same behavior — enough that made it seem the behavior was Partlow’s standard operating procedure. In an interview between Struck, Partlow and the Burnett County Sheriff’s Department, Partlow admitted she didn’t know how long the stealing would have continued had she not been caught. She told Struck she was sorry, but she needed the money to pay bills. She also said she learned the “trick” from her ex-husband, who had done the same thing at the St. Croix Falls Subway. Partlow still has a Polk County criminal case yet to be resolved for similar crimes against the Frederic Subway. by Todd Beckmann, Sentinel

Spotlight on the Village Players

VOYAGER VILLAGE—The cast is set and rehearsals are underway for the Village Players Community Theatre 2016 summer production, “Drinking Habits,” a farce by Tom Smith (performed with permission by Playscripts, Inc.). Veteran VPCT actor Danielle Formanek will be directing the production, which will run two weekends, July 28-30 and August 4-6, with two Sunday matinees, July 31 and August 7. The play centers around two nuns in the order of Sisters of Perpetual Sewing, who are secretly making wine to keep the convent’s doors open. Audiences will laugh out loud as wine and secrets are spilled when visitors arrive at the convent to expose the sisters’ tasty trade.

MEET THE DIRECTOR Danielle Formanek is very excited to be participating in her fourth Village Players show, this time as the director. Danielle, a Webster High School alum, recently graduated from UW-River Falls with a degree in theatre arts. “This isn’t my first time directing, but there’s something very special about being able to direct on the stage I was first introduced to six years ago, when my best friend Olivia suggested that I come audition for the show she was directing, ‘The Grandest Canyon.’” Danielle is grateful to have such a great cast and crew to make this show Danielle possible. Formanek “Because of all the humor in this show, I knew I needed a solid group of actors who could handle all the crazy comedy. I’ve worked with the majority of the cast on previous shows, so I knew they were a great group who could really have fun with it. The audience will recognized some familiar favorites from previous shows as well as some fresh faces. They’re all wonderful. They make me laugh at every rehearsal.” “This show is a goofy comedy — it’s lighthearted. It’s not a hard-hitting piece of drama meant to make you cry or think until your head hurts. It’s fun and a little ridiculous, but laughs are a guarantee!” Danielle invites everyone to “Come and enjoy the show!” Tickets for this season’s performances will again be available for purchase online, with printable tickets at www.villageplayerscommunitytheatre.com then click on Ticket Peak. Tickets may also be purchased at the door the day of the performance. (Online sales stop three hours prior to performance. Tickets at the door are at a slightly higher fee).

Milberg cleared in vehicular homicide case BY TOM STANGL PUBLISHER

ELLSWORTHâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;It took a jury of nine women and three men just under two hours last Wednesday to find Kari Milberg not guilty of three counts of homicide by negligent operation of a vehicle and one count of reckless driving causing injury. Milberg, her two children and two nieces were involved in a collision in Pierce County on Dec. 12, 2013. Lydia Milberg, 11, Clara Pavek, 5, and Laynie Jo Amos, 5, all died as a result of injuries sustained in the accident. Milbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son, Easton, 3, survived the accident. The prosecution presented 19 witnesses in three and a half days. The defense did not call any witnesses and Milberg declined to testify on her own behalf. Prosecutor Sean Froelich presented experts that testified to the mechanical condition of Milbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2007 Saturn Vue as well as the International straight truck that was in the accident. Facebook Messenger chat messages sent and received from Milbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s account were also presented as evidence. Defense attorney Aaron Nelson asserted in cross examination that the tires on Milbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vehicle were too worn to be safe on any surface but a dry road, a conclusion reached by Wisconsin State Patrol Inspector Rick Graveen, who examined the vehicle in 2015. Graveen died before the trial, so a second mechanical inspection was done by Wisconsin State Patrol Inspector Richard Krisher. When asked about the tires, Krisher said that surface of the road would determine how the tires would react. Wisconsin State Patrol Investigator Derrek Hanson, a crash reconstruction-

ist, testified about data recovered from the Saturnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s event data recorder. The International straight truck involved in the accident was going 30 mph at the time of the accident, and data from the Saturn indicated that the vehicle was probably in a spin. The sensors did not deploy the airbags. Nelson had Hanson do calculations to determine the deceleration rate of the Milberg vehicle and came up with a -.27g, which was consistent with a value of snow-covered road. The other Facebook account involved in a chat before the crash belonged to Jason McKenzie, a childhood friend of Milberg. McKenzie testified that he remembered having a phone conversation with Milberg the day of the accident, but he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t remember what the conversation was about. When asked about the Facebook chat messages, McKenzie testified that he did not remember the conversation. When asked if seeing a transcript of the messages would refresh his memory, McKenzie said it would not. A transcript of the messages sent and received from the Milberg and McKenzie accounts was entered into evidence. At 3:05:51 p.m., the Milberg account messages â&#x20AC;&#x153;I will meet u for lunch.â&#x20AC;? The McKenzie account replies â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bull****â&#x20AC;? at 3:11:49 p.m. The Milberg account responds â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hahahaha!â&#x20AC;? at 3:32:44 p.m. At 3:36:03 p.m., the Milberg account sends â&#x20AC;&#x153;U r nervous I just may meet ya.â&#x20AC;? The McKenzie account replies at 3:37:25 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m nervous.â&#x20AC;? At 3:38:26 p.m., McKenzie messages: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Takes a lot to get me nervous.â&#x20AC;? At 3:39:04 p.m., Milberg replies: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I am 2! Kind of bad!â&#x20AC;? McKenzie replies at 3:39:07 p.m.: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not nervous.â&#x20AC;? Testimony from the Pierce County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office indicates that the 911 call came in at 3:39:56 p.m.

TOM STANGL | SENTINEL

Froelich also sought to include global positioning system (GPS) data to correspond with the timing of the Facebook chat messages. The court ruled that experts would need to testify about cellular tower locations and timing issues. Dr. Butch Huston, a forensic pathologist with the Ramsay County Medical Examinerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office, testified that the three children died of injuries sustained in the car accident. Prosecutor Froelich wanted to include graphic details of the injuries sustained by the children, but was not allowed to do so. In closing arguments, Froelich urged jurors to use the evidence as their guide. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mercy and sympathy are issues for the judge,â&#x20AC;? he said during his half hour closing. The prosecutor asked, if there was snow on the road, if you had children in the car, â&#x20AC;&#x153;What are you doing on your phone? What are you doing making lunch plans? How are you supposed to do that?â&#x20AC;?

Defense attorney Nelson in his nearly hour-long closing argument, urged jurors to look at the science of the case and conclude that it was a terrible accident caused by wet road conditions and poor tires. Nelson cited the case of Arthur Smith, the first person in the United States charged with vehicular homicide in 1899, who was acquitted of charges. He pointed out the failure of the state to investigate. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The police officers looked and looked until they found what they wanted,â&#x20AC;? he said. Regarding the Facebook messages, Nelson said that there was not proof beyond a reasonable doubt who was using the phone or how the phone was being used. Nelson told jurors that justice is not always â&#x20AC;&#x153;an eye for an eye.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sometimes justice is letting go, healing, following the law,â&#x20AC;? he said. Nelson cited the Declaration of Independence, shared a story about a boy and an old man. In the story, the boy caught a bird in his hands and devised a trick to play on the old man. He would ask the old man if the bird was dead or alive. If the man said the bird was dead, he would release the live bird to prove the old man wrong. If the man said the bird was alive, he would crush the bird to prove the old man wrong. When he caught the bird and asked the old man if it was dead or alive, the old man said â&#x20AC;&#x153;its fate is in your hands.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;This familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fate is now in your hands,â&#x20AC;? Nelson said. All 12 members of the jury were polled about the not guilty verdict and reaffirmed that Milberg was not guilty of all charges.

Memo shows wealthiest taxpayers beneďŹ t from tax credit

MADISON (AP)â&#x20AC;&#x201D;A new memo from the nonpartisan Legislative Fiscal Bureau estimates that 11 taxpayers earning more than $35 million each in 2017 will claim about $21 million in tax breaks from a program targeted at manufacturers and farmers. The memo released Wednesday comes a day after a report by the liberal Wisconsin Budget Project that presented similar data to criticize the Manufacturing and Agriculture Tax Credit. The latest memo estimates that 1,270 individual income tax filers earning $1 million or more a year will earn about $162 million in credits.

WONDER WEEVILS One of the featured presentations at the conference centered on a problem all too familiar to residents of Washburn and Burnett counties, and throughout northwestern Wisconsin — Eurasian water milfoil and other invasive plant species choking waterways. Kela Vicich, a senior at Island City Academy of Cumberland, is among volunteers cultivating native weevils that feed on milfoil to help control and eradicate the plant. “Milfoil has been causing huge problems in our lakes for a long time,” said Vicich. “It’s found in more than 400 lakes in Wisconsin alone. It is a threat to our ecosystems because of its growth rate. It can add about two inches per day – that’s insane! It out-competes native species and strangles the ecosystem.” While a solution for the milfoil problem is still being sought, Vicich says the group she is working with in the Cumberland area may be on to something big. Last spring, she began working with Amy Thorstenson and David Blumer on a test solution. Invasive species like milfoil cost $137 billion in damage and control efforts per year. Those costs are passed on the consumers. The loss of diversity and alteration of ecosystems, she pointed out, “Affects fishing, water sports, even hunting. Things that create an economy in Wisconsin are being put at risk. The heroes of this story? Water milfoil weevils — they are amazing.” The scientific name for the species is euhrychiopsis lecontei — weevils, of course, is much easier.

BURNETT COUNTY HONORED Starting the conference, Burnett County Lakes and Rivers Association received special recognition. “They won the 2016 Wisconsin Lakes Stewardship Award at the Wisconsin Lakes Conference,” Anderson told the crowd assembled in the Spooner High School auditorium. “For decades, the Burnett County Lakes and Rivers Association has been a leading force impacting the waterways of Burnett County. Their steadfast efforts made them an easy choice for the stewardship award. “Notable accomplishments include sponsoring initiatives that led the county to be one of the first in Wisconsin to adopt an ordinance making it illegal to transport aquatic vegetation on boats and trailers,” Anderson added. “The group remains active in county government planning activities, helps new lake organizations form, keeps more than 6,100 county waterfront prop-

erty owners educated and aware of issues affecting the waters of Burnett County through the organization’s successful ‘Lake Lines’ newsletter. “This group was an instrumental part of the successful effort to create a shoreline protection incentive program and currently have 750 participants and protects 50 miles of shoreline. “We would like to recognize Burnett County Lakes and Rivers Association for the wonderful work they are doing,” Anderson concluded.

SPOONER—Water. We drink it, we bathe in it, we wash with it, we need it to survive. Yet, in many ways, we take it for granted. At the 18th Annual Northwest Wisconsin Lakes Conference held at Spooner High School on Friday, June 24, water and the environment were the major focus. Many speakers warned that just assuming clean, plentiful water would always be here is a mistake. It must be preserved and defended to ensure a healthy ecosystem for people and wildlife. The NWLC featured 12 sessions on a wide variety of lake-related topics and issues, from loons to invasive species to water diversion. In the school commons, many displays were set up to offer information beyond the speakers’ programs. Linda Anderson of the Washburn County Lakes and River Association and a member of the NWLC Committee served as hostess.

“I suspect that many people underestimate the amount of hours dedicated to work. They don’t identify it as such because they are on their own couch instead of in their cubicle; in reality, they are tethered to their jobs, working excess hours without a break,” she reports. “I’ve seen caregivers admitted to the hospital with sleep deprivation, untreated cancer, heart attacks and strokes. They have lost friends and colleagues to sudden death and preventable illness, all because there was work to be done.” Friends and relations make the best caregivers in most cases because, above all, they have a personal connection to the individuals who need their help, according to Weber. At the end of their very long days, the best caregivers are those who take care of themselves as they go about their chores. As Dr. Tronetti put it, “they need to take time to make time for themselves. They need to see to their own medical conditions and take measures to alleviate stress.”

an important service for others, they need to recognize when they are doing a disservice to themselves, Weber points out. Tronetti says, “the classic caregiver primer is called ‘The 36 Hour Day,’ and for good reason. Instead of being retired and off the clock, caregivers are busy, alert and ready at a moment’s notice and every hour of the day to be the nurse, housekeeper, referee, advocate, diaper changer, cook, laundry service, pharmacist, psychologist and go-fer.” “Forget about the 40-hour-work week for these ‘sainted souls,”” adds Weber. “They are ready to tackle their jobs all day long and, in many cases, all night long, too.” Tronetti cited one study in her article. It showed that those who work 35 to 40 hours a week have an average risk of stroke for their age groups and that those who work 41 to 48 hours have a 10 percent higher chance of having a stroke. But, those who worked 49 to 55 hours a week were linked to a 27 to 33 percent increase in their risks for stroke.

WASHINGTON, D.C.—The doting daughter who takes care of an elderly parent is just doing what she ought to be doing, some might say. In many cases, however, she’s putting her life at risk by devoting days and nights to tend to her loved one’s needs, according to the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC). “Professional caregivers are on call during their shifts. They deserve respect for what they do. But, relations and friends of seniors who need care who take on the super-onerous tasks of tending to the needs of their loved ones deserve not just respect, but a break as well. They are usually on call around the clock with little to show for it but their own failing health in many cases,” says AMAC president Dan Weber. Dr. Pamela Tronetti who specializes in geriatric medicine recently published a report in Florida Today noting that “caregivers don’t tally up the hours because they reason that they would be doing most of these chores (cooking, cleaning) anyway.” But, while they are doing

Advances in reliability headline annual meeting

FREDERIC—Approximately 150 members and guests attended Polk-Burnett Electric Cooperative’s 78th annual meeting Friday, June 17 at Frederic High School. “The annual meeting gives co-op members a chance to meet directors and employees, learn about co-op performance and provide feedback. We are always looking to improve our service to you and your family,” said Polk-Burnett Board President Ed Gullickson.

STATE OF THE CO-OP REPORT Gullickson reported that electricity sales are down and growth across the distribution system remains flat, with very few new electric accounts. “But, we have a lot of positives to celebrate,” he said. “Polk-Burnett is financially solid and our new General Manager Steve Stroshane is exceeding expectations. The co-op is more efficient and effective, providing member-owners with reliable power and extraordinary service.” “Polk-Burnett Electric Cooperative delivers power to 20,962 locations and maintains 3,365 miles of power line across 2,000 miles,” reported Board President Ed Gullickson. One favorable indicator of the co-op’s financial performance is the ability to return capital credits. Gullickson reported that $909,000 in capital credits was distributed to 16,190 members in 2015. “All money beyond expenses is returned to members,” said Gullickson. “Capital credits are based on the amount of electricity purchased and are a direct benefit of cooperative membership.”

Local tourism

‘In A New Light’ Gallery in Webster hosted Wisconsin Tourism Secretary Stephanie Klett last Thursday to discuss tourism in Burnett County — speciﬁcally, how the gallery impacts tourism in the area and how tourism impacts the gallery’s mission of bringing hope to its clients. In addition to Klett, attending the meeting were 10th District State Senator Sheila Harsdorf, Burnett County Tourism Coalition member Larry Main, Grantsburg Revitalization Organization (GRO) member Nicki Peterson, Chris Moeller of Siren Chamber of Commerce, Chanda Elliott of Northwest Passage, Tesora Restaurant Owner Jake Mangelsen, and Mike Kornmann of UW-Extension. Following their business meeting at the gallery, Klett (left), Harsdorf and Peterson (right) journeyed to Burnett Dairy CoOp Cheese Store to talk cheese — they sampled some as well.

RELIABILITY AND TECHNOLOGY IMPROVEMENTS The co-op continues to show steady improvements in reliability, reported General Manager Steve Stroshane. The number of power outages and time without power have decreased 50 percent in the past 10 years. æThis puts Polk-Burnett in the top 25 percent of co-ops nationwide for reliability,” Stroshane said. He credits high reliability performance to proactive right-of-way maintenance, investments in technology and improvements in operational efficiency. “The co-op invested $4.1 million in 2015 and another $4.5 million in 2016 to upgrade the electric system and improve reliability,” added Stroshane. Costs to build and maintain the system are shared equally among all co-op members, explained Stroshane. “Polk-Burnett averages just six members per mile to share fixed costs.”

Northwest Passage gets initiative grant

WEBSTER—The St. Croix Valley Foundation is honored to announce that Northwest Passage is the recipient of a $3,000 Valley Arts Initiative grant. The grant will support a powerful and innovative artist-in-residence program that Northwest Passage designed in partnership with the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway. The Artist-in-Residence — Cait Irwin — a full time painter, sculptor, and author based in Iowa will spend the summer living, teaching, and creating art at the Schaefer Cabin on the Namekagon River in Burnett County. The Schaefer Cabin — historic, beautiful, and secluded — was recently restored to serve as a therapeutic artistic retreat through a National Park Service and Northwest Passage partnership. Northwest Passage (NWP) recognizes that harnessing the passion and insight of artistic mentors is one of the most effective means of providing transformative experiences for youth. Therefore, approximately 60 NWP clients will experience the positive emotion, engagement, relationships, meaning, and accomplishment that stems from deep engagement in the artistic process and in our national parks. Over the course of this one-month residency, Cait will lead workshops with clients, and all day community art workshops. Participants of the workshops will create artistic work that will be displayed for the public. Ian Karl, NWP’s Experiential Programming Coordinator and highly experienced in the design and

implementation of arts and nature-based programming, commented, “For the kids, these trips out to the cabin are a journey into the world of a professional artist and an opportunity to step into a one-of-akind, creative environment. There is art and healing in the entire process.” Cait added, “When the kids can take even 30 minutes out of a day to focus on nothing but drawing, it helps make new connections and gives them a break from the anxieties and distractions of everyday life.”

WILDSIDE Learn natural gardening SPOONER—This year the Spooner Agriculture Research Station Teaching and Display Garden is focusing on pollinators. The second free seminar is on “Becoming a Natural Gardener” at 6 p.m. on Tuesday, July 12. The University of Wisconsin Extension and North Country Master Gardener Volunteers invite you to come for the evening. This topic will focus on vegetable and herb gardens and highlight the best time for planting, blooming and harvest cycles and using phenology (the study of the interaction of plants, animals, insects and climate). Also included will be information on: how to improve your soil with the use of mulches and organic material, the differences between seed types, seed saving, integrated pest management, plant nutrition, and creating an “insectary” to attract beneficial pollinators. Mark your calendars for two other events at the Teaching and Display Gardens. The Twilight Tour on Tuesday, August 16 is the highlight of the garden year. It will feature University of Wisconsin experts, Master Gardener Volunteers, garden seminars, displays, farm tours, tastings, and music. At 10 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 10, the final “Meet Me in the Garden Seminar” will focus on contributing to the health of pollinators and the Year in Review. Master Gardener Volunteers will relate their experience creating a Monarch Way Station at the garden and how others can create habitats and contribute to observations of monarchs and other pollinators.

GORDON—Since beginning this kayaking trip, I have been checking the water levels of the St. Croix and Namekagon rivers, compulsively, almost daily. The St. Croix National Scenic Riverway’s portion of the National Park Service website (www.nps.gov/ sacn) offers river-goers a solid preview of what to expect on its “River Conditions” pages. Within those pages (a general page, plus a more detailed one for each river) there are links to the actual U.S. Geological Survey and Army Corps of Engineers gauges that show current water levels, flow volumes and water temperatures. My inner nerd finds the charts and data on these sites fascinating. My obvious (almost compulsive) desire to not be surprised by anything makes them essential to my success. These pages are why sometime shortly before the June 11-12 weekend, I knew immediately that a rainstorm had rolled through the upper watershed, causing enough of a water level increase to give me a chance to paddle Upper St. Croix. And so, I temporarily shelved plans for another Namekagon excursion and instead headed toward Gordon. Prior to shoving off, though, I needed to get the Sans Souci II back in service. I left early that morning and headed to Hayward, to retrieve a new set of foot pegs which Dagger Kayaks graciously supplied under warranty. The owner of Hayward Outfitters showed me how to install them, free of charge. “They’re just not supposed to break,” I was told. I smiled when I heard that and made sure my brother-in-law heard about it, too. A couple of screws turned and we were in business again. With shuttle support once again from my father, I stashed my vehicle at Riverside Landing with a plan to cover the riverway’s first 23.3 miles. If the first miles of the Namekagon River resemble a sandy beach, the first miles of the St. Croix below Gordon Dam must certainly be compared to a war-torn asphalt highway. The river bottom in that stretch is a craggy, jagged mess of hard rock that, were it an actual highway, one would have difficulty mustering the necessary ankle support to walk along. I was glad for every drop of water that fell the week before, which kept the Sans Souci II afloat. I had to disembark only once and didn’t go far before I was paddling again, watching fat blue crawfish bob along the rocks underneath me. About a mile-and-a-half below the dam, I learned a valuable lesson about heeding the advice of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway’s published paddling guides. The guide for that stretch says “avoid the right” of the rocky rapids upstream from Scott Bridge. I ended up getting quite stuck in those rocks. I managed to get loose safely, my boat and I no worse for the wear, but I will definitely stay to river left next time. Once loose, I took a short breather at Scott Bridge (mile marker S153.4 on Riverway Map 4) to recover and to get a photo of the offending rocks, then paddled upstream for a bit on the Moose River, which joins the

Upcoming Sunday morning ‘coffee walks’ at Interstate Park ST. CROIX FALLS— Enjoy the beauty and tranquility of the St. Croix River Valley with some fresh coffee, good conversation, and a healthy morning walk next to the St. Croix River. Park rangers from the National Park Service will lead these walks (with coffee provided!) on every other Sunday through October 16. Sunday, July 10, at 9 a.m. – Chisago Loop, Ridge View Trails in Osceola The basaltic rock outcroppings on this 1.5 -mile loop will leave you wondering where to look next. Note that there is some uneven terrain on this trail, but we will be in no hurry. Meet the park ranger at the Chisago Loop Trailhead, located just north of Osceola, Wisconsin, 1.5 miles west of Wisconsin Highway 35 on Polk County Road S. Sunday, July 24, 9 a.m. – Lake of the Dalles Trail, Wisconsin Interstate State Park Meet the park ranger and state park naturalist at the Lake of the Dalles beachhouse for an easy one-mile loop around this geologic wonder. Wisconsin Interstate State Park is located one-half mile south of St. Croix Falls on State Highway 87. There is no charge for the walk, but a vehicle pass is required to enter.

KYLE WEAVER

Weaver’s campsite at Schoen Park Landing.

St. Croix there. With 220 miles of paddling planned for this summer, I haven’t made many sidetrips yet, and this stream looked inviting. I didn’t get far, though, before another rocky ledge forced me to turn back. For the first time in this journey, I took a short portage around an obstacle that was allegedly navigable. I got out to scout the second chute of the Coppermine Dam (S148.5, or thereabout) but didn’t like what I saw. Besides, I had hit enough rocks for one day. All the same, the area around this ancient logging dam is worth viewing and pondering for a few moments. After considering two other campsites upstream, I stopped for the night at Schoen Park Landing (S142.8). I almost settled for another campsite one-tenth of a mile upstream from said landing, but a short hike to the landing revealed an abundance of pre-cut pine firewood, already stacked beside the fire ring. Call it a sign. Instead of packing my tent/ground pad/sleeping bag combo, I brought my hammock with its bug netting and rain fly. It’s a smaller set-up to pack, but there is one thing a hammock does for you that a tent will not: it allows wind to blow underneath you while you sleep. I shivered most of the night and didn’t sleep well, wishing I had at least brought my sleeping bag. Another lesson learned. The next morning, cold and eager to be moving again, I hit the water early. The morning was filled with small rapids and riffles, all leading up to the Big Fish Trap Rapids, which I had no trouble navigating, though one wave crashed over my boat’s side and gave me a good soaking. As a slight rain began to threaten, I stopped at the confluence of the Namekagon River. I will be here again, but seeing it for the first time seemed significant enough that I had to snap a couple pictures. Some sprinkles began falling as I passed Big Island and finished up the final four miles, arriving at Riverside and my vehicle a little after lunch time. Until next time, I’ll see you on the water. —Kyle Weaver is a freelance journalist and outdoorsman who lives in the St. Croix River Valley. He can be reached at swsman28@yahoo.com.

Saturday night’s ﬁreworks at Webster Fairgrounds were the kick-off for Webster’s Centennial festivities. The full celebration of the 1916-2016 village anniversary will occur on Gandy Dancer Weekend, August 12-13 with proclamation ceremony, BMX bike thrill show, car show and more.

Summer and strawberry season Strawberry season is upon us! Nothing compares to the taste of a fresh-picked strawberry. When my family visits this weekend, we will have strawberries at every meal, although local berries aren’t ready. I usually pick strawberries at a local patch. We eat many of the berries just as they are, but I also make freezer jam, short cake, strawberry salad and strawberry-rhubarb pie. There are two things my dad goes bonkers over: lemon pie and anything strawberry. My grandmother used to Wild Chow make a lemon chiffon pie, which my father was crazy about. It was light and Lisa Erickson airy. She used fresh lemons for a “puckeringly” good flavor. I remember my dad liking the pie more than I remember the pie itself.

Strawberry Chiffon Pie 1 1/2 cups Nabisco animal cookie crumbs, about 30 5 Tbsp butter, melted 2 Tbsp sugar Cooking spray 3 cups strawberries 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice 1/4 tsp salt 4 large egg whites 1 cup plus 2 Tbsp sugar 6 Tbsp water Fresh berries

Combine cookie crumbs, butter and sugar in a bowl; toss with a fork until moist. Press into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch spring-form pan coated with cooking spray. Bake for 15 minutes until crust is set. Cool completely. Combine three cups strawberries and fresh lemon juice in a blender; process until smooth. Strain mixture through a sieve over a bowl; discard solids. Place salt and egg whites in a large bowl; beat with a mixer at high speed until foamy. Combine sugar and six tablespoons water in a medium saucepan. Bring it to a boil. Cook, without stirring, until a candy thermometer registers 250°. Slowly pour the hot sugar syrup into egg white mixture, beating at medium speed, then at high speed, until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in strawberry mixture; pour into prepared and cooled crust. Cover and freeze for eight hours or overnight. Let stand five minutes at room temperature before serving. Garnish with fresh berries.

‘Universe in the Park’ at Interstate Park

Don’t miss “Universe in the Park,” a special presentation beginning at 9 p.m. Saturday, July 9, indoors at Wisconsin Interstate Park’s Ice Age Center. This program includes the latest discoveries and puzzles about our universe followed by a hands-on stargazing session outdoors with the aid of a telescope (weather permitting).

Alpaca and llama pasture walk

COMSTOCK WI—An alpaca and llama pasture walk will be held from 10 a.m. to noon on Saturday, July 9 at the Dippreyville Farm, owned by Don and Sheila Dipprey. The farm is located at 49 190th Ave, Comstock — watch for the signs. The pasture walk will be followed by a lunch at the house. If Ladybird (the resident ostrich) is laying, a big pan of egg bake will be on the table. Don and Sheila have been raising llamas for the past 25 years, reaching a maximum of 45 head. Recently they started going more into alpacas, having purchased their present herd of 23 suri alpacas from Barbe and Jim Kackly of Mineral Point, WI. Don and Sheila own 43 acres. The contour of the land is well-suited for grazing of these camelids from South America. All the hay and feed is purchased. Don is the retired Turtle Lake High School Ag Instructor and works part-time as UW-Extension Ag Agent for Polk County. The Dippreys keep 27 of acres under the Federal Forest Crop Law program. The remaining 13 acres is marginal pasture ground, but alpacas and llamas are very efficient grazers. They supplement with a bit of hay all summer. Presently, the alpacas are pastured separately from the llamas, mostly because of the extra fencing needs of the alpacas. Original, plastic electric fencing has been converted to permanent high tensile with no electricity. Smaller paddocks by the barn are enclosed with cattle panels. The Dippreys need to watch for toxic weeds such as night shade, but the biggest concern is burdocks, which can destroy a fleece’s quality in a very short time. For further information about the walk, contact Don Dipprey at 715-419-1903, or Otto Wiegand, UW-Extension in Spooner at 715-635-3506.

Reading Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love letter

Pastor Mike Kleven First Baptist Church

Elizabeth Barrett Browning married Robert Browning under her parentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s protest. They were so dismayed they disowned her. Elizabeth was deeply saddened by the estrangement. So, she wrote almost weekly letters of love seeking reconciliation and repair for the broken relationship. Ten years passed with no response. Finally, Elizabeth a large box came in the mail. She opened it and her heart broke. Every letter she had written was in the box; all unopened. Had Elizabethâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parents opened and read just a couple letters they would have encountered their daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loving heart seeking reconciliation. But they never dared

to see their daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heart. So, the door remained closed to repairing relationship with Elizabeth. Did you know God is a letter writer? The Bible is Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love letter to the world. It acknowledges the fractured relationship between himself and the people of this world. It tells of Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love to provide reconciliation through Jesus to all people estranged from him. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sad some people never open Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love letterâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;the Bible. They remain estranged from God, filled with false beliefs about him.
