VINTAGE PHOTO The former Polk County Courthouse in downtown Balsam Lake, built in 1899, now serves as the Polk County Museum, operated by the Polk County Historical Society. This photo, from the horse and buggy days, shows the courthouse with three buggies in front. Two buggies on the left are on a spot where businesses are located now. The buggy on the road has two occupants, George Rogers, an early custodian of the courthouse and with him is likely Ed Husband, a state assemblyman and owner of the Polk County Ledger at the time. The building on the right is still standing and once served as the Polk County Bank. Note that the veterans memorial wall had not yet been constructed in front and the trees on the front lawn, now huge, were just saplings. The building served as a courthouse until 1975 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. - Photo submitted

Siren grad Mackenzie Swenson is heading to New York City, newly enrolled at The Grand Central Atelier

$UW VKRZLQJ )ULGD\ LQ 6LUHQ Gary King | Leader editor NEW YORK CITY/SIREN - Mackenzie Swenson is experiencing one of lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rare occurrences - when the stars are bright and aligned and everything seems to come together in one head-spinning chain of events. In fact, you could say the future looks as bright as colors in a Van Gogh painting for the 2010 Siren salutatorian, who has been accepted to one of the most prestigious and exclusive art schools in the nation and world - The Grand Central Atelier in New York City. Before she embarks for the Big Apple and new horizons, Swenson will greet visitors at a special showing of her art this Friday, Aug. 29, at the Northwoods Event Center in Siren, from 4 to 10 p.m. There will be music and food, with select postcard prints of Swansonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s artwork for sale along with original paintings by the self-proclaimed, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Practicing Painter and Observer of Light.â&#x20AC;? It offers an opportunity for members of the general public to meet Swenson, bid her best wishes, enjoy her artwork and perhaps even donate to her school fund and thereby be part of the series of events that led to the schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s invitation. Events that had the artist uncertain of which path to take at times. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been one of those experiences

7KH ZRUNVKRS â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bit of a story,â&#x20AC;? Swenson said, leading up to telling of the past three weeks in her life. Attending The Atelier in Minneapolis for the past four years, Swenson looked to sharpen her painting skills by signing up in late July for a portrait workshop at The Grand Central Atelier, offering a â&#x20AC;&#x153;different perspective on thingsâ&#x20AC;? and the opportunity to work with renowned portrait painter Scott Wadell. She planned to stay with family while in New York City, fairly distant relatives, but when that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pan out, Swenson began calling everyone and anyone who might have connections in the big city. It got to be less than a week before the workshop and I had no idea what I was going to be doing,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Then I randomly thought of a former student at The Atelier who had graduated and become a successful artist in New York - Michael Klein. He and his wife live in New York City and also know one of my instructors at school.â&#x20AC;? A Facebook message out of the blue from Swenson to Klein explained the situation, basically seeking a couch to sleep on during the week of the workshop. Klein responded, saying part of their week was a bit crazy but they had a friend in the same apartment building who was gone and it was available for her to live in. Fortunate event number one. 7KH SDUW\

Swanson left for the big city with the only regret being her suitcase had no wheels. Laden with painting supplies,

The week went by quickly, with Swenson attending her workshop and getting to know Klein and his wife, Nelie. The couple introduced her to their community via a barbecue event at their church. They also took her out to dinner, sharing stories of the Minneapolis school they both attended and Kleinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s current project with fellow artist Joshua Larock that provides a forum for artists to develop interconnectedness of art and faith. They also discussed Kleinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intense painting exercise as part of a competition at The Grand Central Atelier which offered a $10,000 grand prize. At the end of the week, Swenson was invited to go to the contestâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s awards ceremony and party which would become another key event. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Because I was at the workshop I was able to be there ( the party) and meet all these amazing people who are part of Grand Central Atelier, including the director, Jacob Collins,â&#x20AC;? she said.

The next day, as the Kleins drove Swenson to the airport for her trip home, the conversation included the topic of Swensonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plans for the coming year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d already told him I was going to be going back to Minneapolis Atelier for one last year of school,â&#x20AC;? Swenson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Michael asked me, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;What do you have left to learn there - why are you going back?â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Swenson said she really couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t articulate anything that was satisfactory. She had friends at the school - a â&#x20AC;&#x153;cool little group of artistsâ&#x20AC;? - and she wanted to continue to be with them. Michael encouraged her to enroll at Grand Central Atelier. The trip home would involve some serious soul-searching for Swenson.

7KH FDOO That week in New York City - the workshop and discussions with Michael Klein and Jacob Collins - began Swensonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s transition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My entire world had been shifted upside down,â&#x20AC;? she said. The Grand Central Atelier beckoned but she was already committed to two waitressing jobs, had signed a new lease with a roommate and was prepared for another year at The Atelier in Minneapolis. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I felt like I was stuck,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But after getting home I said, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You know what, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just send in an application (to Grand Central Atelier) even though itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a total long shot.â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;?

Within a week, the call came from Grand Central Atelier. She was accepted as a full-time student, beginning Sept. 2. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was absolutely in shock,â&#x20AC;? Swenson said. And besides being accepted, there was one more long shot to validate her leaps of faith. The school awarded her a $2,500 scholarship toward her tuition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When I got that email, I was having lunch with one of the people who wrote a letter of recommendation on my behalf,â&#x20AC;? she said.

)RXQGDWLRQV DQG IDLWK No one would miss the irony in the fact Swenson didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take many art courses while attending Siren High School, instead focusing on upper-level math and science. She and lifelong friend Sarah Howe shared the top two spots in the academic rankings of the Class of 2010 and were salutatorian and valedictorian, respectively, their journey being the focus of a Leader feature story that year. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I had a great relationship with all of my teachers at Siren,â&#x20AC;? Swenson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You always hear so many kids saying â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to get out of hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; but for Sarah and me it was never a matter of running away from something - it was always progressing to things you have an appreciation or talent for.â&#x20AC;? The earliest encouragement for art may have come from Dave Smith, her art teacher in elementary through high school. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He was always encouraging and made me think about things from a variety of perspectives.â&#x20AC;? Friend Terry Hinze, who has helped organize Swensonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s art showing this Friday, said Swenson is one of those people whose talents offer them a variety of options in life. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She could have been a mathematician or musician but when you see her art you say, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Oh, wow, you truly have a gift,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Hinze said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;She baby-sat for my kids and taught them piano and art. Sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a fabulous girl.â&#x20AC;? Swenson said sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s appreciative of friends and family, particularly her parents, Janet Otto and Mark Swenson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve surrounded me with ridiculous support,â&#x20AC;? she said. A postcard she sent from New York to her father included a PS that said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hey, what if I moved here?â&#x20AC;? It was a joke at the time, she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just wanted to give him crap,â&#x20AC;? she laughed. Now that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a reality and sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be attending a school in downtown Manhattan, just a few blocks from Grand Central Terminal and Times Square, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plenty of reason for parents to worry, not about her success, but her safety. But Mackenzie says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s leaving a comfort zone and diving into the unknown with faith. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My entire journey, especially these last few weeks, have felt like having peace while walking on water,â&#x20AC;? she noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trusting that if I acted on Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s promptings, the means would be provided at the right time - no sooner, no later.

Last spring our Rotary board of directors met, discussed and recorded our clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strengths, opportunities, threats and weaknesses. From this meeting our

board came up with goals and objectives for the coming year. Based on what we learned about our organization we were able to make plans on how to grow our club and continue to serve others. The mission statement we came up with for our club states: Rotary Club is a service club dedicated to helping people locally as well as internationally. It will allow you to take part in projects that positively impact people on a scale beyond your personal abilities due to the impact of millions of members working together. Rotary is service above self. You can participate at any level: locally, nationally and internationally. Our club is always looking for new

members who are service oriented and enjoy good fellowship. While our club is very modest in terms of membership numbers, we are part of a much larger organization comprised of over 1.2 million members worldwide. Our motto is Service Above Self and we strive to improve the world at the local, regional and international level.

ollowing a yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s respite, Forts Folle Avoine Historical Park is doing it again. Oh no, you groan, what now? Something good, actuallyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the tired team that put together several Beaver Club banquets has decided to roll out a new version this year. The party is set for Saturday, Oct. 11, from shortly after 6 p.m. till betwixt 8 and 9 p.m. Early reservations are suggested as itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a pretty popular affair. They can be arranged by calling 715-866-8890. %XW Ă&#x20AC;UVW WKH %HDYHU &OXE" 6RPH VRUW of beaver bait, a trap, a whiskey, maybe even a new baseball bat? Nah, none of thatâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the Forts Folle Avoine Beaver Club is a restyling of the elaborate dinners once held in Montreal during a span ranging from 1785 until 1827. That Canadian city then boasted the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most elite fur trade society, consisting of ex-fur traders and explorers. They were legends in their own times, and when back in Montreal they liked to party in a big wayâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;rounding up their own sorts to celebrate their exploits. It was an exclusive group, only fur trade veterans, most from the famed North West Company, and who had wintered inland, were allowed to join. Ah, but hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the big difference, Folle Avoine style, you are invited to join the distinguished, if slightly pompous, gentlemen as they dine the night away, feasting on several courses of fare reminiscent of their rugged years spent in the wilderness.

structure increased Internet speed to one gigabit per second. Carlson said thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nearly 100 times faster than the previous 10 megabits per second. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fiber optic uses light, so youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working at the speed of light, as opposed to copper which has resistance, and because of the resistance itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s restricted in distance and speed,â&#x20AC;? said Carlson. He said that with maintenance, towns could eventually be capable of getting Internet speeds of up to 10 gigabits per second. Installation on the Madeline Island town of La Pointe took place last summer, but the

connection was activated only last month. It covers the entire island, which is the largest of the Apostles.

We can compete with any community.â&#x20AC;? He said that some of the seasonal island residents may now stick around during the

winter months, which could factor into the growth of the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have any number of seasonal residents who now can become year-round residents because they can conduct any number of businesses, taking advantage of the highspeed broadband,â&#x20AC;? said Clark. When asked how fast the Internet was, Clark was not able to put it into technical terms, but said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;They passed out oven mitts because they said it was scorchingly fast.â&#x20AC;?

Only a few short months ago I thought I would spend my whole career in the Frederic School District. Life changes quickly sometimes. This change happened so quickly that I did not have an opportunity to thank the many people from Frederic that have touched and changed my life. First I want to thank Ray Draxler who was a wonderful principal and friend who decided nine years ago to hire me right out of college. I want to thank former teachers Bob Peterson, Dave Dopkins, Jeff Carly and Steve Jensen. You were mentors, role models and friends. I want to thank current faculty members Kelly Hopkins, Bob Pyke, Kelly Fisher, Lisa Jensen, Ethan Bergstrom, Terry Baillargeon, Julie Goodrum, Mary Keller, Ryan Lind, Jeff Larcom, Duane Krueger, Gaelyn Sears, Judy Shafer, Joel Wells, Jesseka Wink, Pat Anderson, Patti Burns, Greg Heine and Kirk Miller. You are wonderful people and wonderful friends. I am so blessed to have had you as a part of my life. I want to thank Ken Belanger, Troy Wink, Bill Struck and everyone else who has been a part of the Frederic football program. You were some of my very best friends over the last nine years, and I will never forget the great times we had together. Thank you to students, present and past. Many of you have become my friends over the years, and our time together will never be forgotten. Thank you to all the students, former students, parents and teachers who came out in my support at the school board meeting this past spring. There are no words that could properly thank you for your overwhelming show of support, nor are there words to tell you how much that meant to me. We succeeded in our purpose for being there that night, but I was told there would be â&#x20AC;&#x153;no guarantees for my job for next year.â&#x20AC;? Those words and the uncertainty that they brought to me and my family left me no choice but to seek job security elsewhere. I hope you understand. It will be nearly impossible for any other place to measure up to the quality of students, parents and friends that exist in Frederic. I loved and will always cherish my experiences, memories and friendships from Frederic. I was so fortunate to know you and blessed to be a part of you.

God bless you all,

Jason Pickering

Politics, pizza and classic rock

Wayne Anderson | 6SHFLDO WR WKH /HDGHU COUNTYWIDE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Hot on the campaign trail for state attorney general were the topics of politics, pizza and rock and roll. Republican candidate Brad Schimel was on tour in Northwest Wisconsin last week in preparation for the upcoming November election. Schimel, who is presently the Waukesha County district attorney, shared his top three concerns for the state and added a classic-rock tidbit for the listeners at the pizzeria, where the event was held. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Job No. 1 is public safety,â&#x20AC;? he said while eyeing his 13-year-old daughter Mackenzie. The eighth-grader is accompanying him around the state. And for father Schimel, he is concerned over rampant-drug use harming people of all ages. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The heroin problem is killing people in our state at an alarming rate,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Right now this drug problem scares the daylights out of me. Every place I go someone tells me â&#x20AC;Ś they have lost someone close to them. We have to get out in front of this. I have a comprehensive plan to address it.â&#x20AC;? Another abuse many voters in Wisconsin, and nationwide, are concerned about is elected leaders are not abiding by the law. They simply ignore the laws passed or go around them and do what they want.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;A part of the attorney generalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s job is helping to create stability in the regulatory environment. I will vigorously defend Wisconsinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s law and enforce the regulations the way they are written,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an important message for the economic climate to succeed.â&#x20AC;? Schimel said many states, like in WisFRQVLQ DUH LQ FRQĂ LFW ZLWK WKH ZD\ WKH federal government is creating costly mandates. The Affordable Care Act, or Obamacare, and controversial regulations from the Environmental Protection Agency are two examples. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hate the federal government by any means,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But I want them to do the things that they are supposed to do and then leave to the states the things left by the Founding Fathers.â&#x20AC;? Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been busy in public life for nearly \HDUV \HW KH VWLOO Ă&#x20AC;QGV WLPH WR ULGH KLV Harley to a gig where he straps on his bass guitar and jams with his classic rock band, â&#x20AC;&#x153;4 On the Floor.â&#x20AC;? His wife and two daughters vote that the band does a mean version of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Smoke on the Waterâ&#x20AC;? by the British group Deep Purple. Their classic song is rated No. 12 of the 100 greatest guitar tracks by Q Magazine. For more information on the Schimel campaign, visit the website: bradschimel. com.

WLCC rummage sale: Big effort, big results WEBB LAKE - The Webb Lake Community Clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rummage sale on Friday and Saturday, Aug. 22 and 23, was one of the two largest events of the year for that community. The other is an identical sale held the week before Memorial Day. Each raises thousands of dollars for civic projects in and around the Webb Lake community. This year each sale raised approximately $8,000 for a total of $16,200, all from donated goods, noted organizer Ann Kerska. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is amazing to see the quality and quantity of donated goods we receive, the determination of our members to pull off a successful event, the willingness of some friends and spouses who spend a week (or two) of their summer helping us set up, and lastly, the number of repeat customers who plan their get-togethers around our sale schedule,â&#x20AC;? Kerska noted. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel blessed to be part of this organization.â&#x20AC;? The WLCC takes donations every Tuesday morning from 9 a.m. to noon and meets the second Tuesday of every month at 1 p.m. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We always welcome new members,â&#x20AC;?

Dorothy Lucille Dahlberg, 87, of Grantsburg, passed away peacefully in her sleep on Aug. 23, 2014. Dorothy was born April 3, 1927, south of Grantsburg, in the Town of Sunrise. She lived in Grantsburg all her adult life and was one of the communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most cherished, ebullient and active members, not to mention one of its star golfers.

John F. Ruck, 78, of Balsam Lake, died suddenly at his home on Saturday, Aug. 23, 2014. John was a lifelong resident of Balsam Lake. He was born in 1936 to Grace (Rogers) and Ernest (Jack) Ruck in their home in the village of Balsam Lake. John graduated from Balsam Lake High School in 1954 where he played basketball and baseball. He was the catcher for the Balsam Lake Swedes and Tri-town Badgers town teams. In recent years he could be found next to Grandma behind home plate watching his grandsons during Unity baseball games. In 1959 he was drafted into the Army and served as a medic stationed in New York City. This was the one and only time he lived away from Balsam Lake. After returning from the service, he returned to work for Ray Rogers at the Lagoon on Deer Lake. This is where he met the love of his life, Audrey (Langkos), who was a waitress there. John and Audrey were married in 1962 and they bought the Ruck homestead the same year. John spent 19 years behind the bar at the Lagoon, but at the same time he worked to support his true passion, which was the farm. John farmed on the Ruck homestead until his retirement in 2004. After his retirement he continued to help when he could and be part of the farming operation. $Q DYLG KXQWHU DQG Ă&#x20AC;VKHUPDQ -RKQ KDG FRXQWOHVV WULSV to Canada, South Dakota, North Dakota and Colorado KXQWLQJ DQG Ă&#x20AC;VKLQJ ZLWK IULHQGV DQG IDPLO\ +H ORYHG a fresh snow and would spend winter months hunting fox and coyote in the area.

He was one of the original members of the Balsam Lake Rod and Gun Club and was chair of the annual smelt fry for years. He has shot trap and has worked at the clubâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual musky tournament since its inception. He served on the Balsam Lake Cemetery Board, Polk County Farm Bureau Board and served on the Balsam Lake Town Board for 38 years. John lived the life that he always wanted. He farmed, hunted, spent time in the woods with his faithful dog, Molly, at his side and, most important, he was able to be part of the lives of his children and grandchildren that meant so much to him. He was very proud and loved to visit and share stories with all those around him.
