UP FRONT SHEBOYGAN - An Amery man won an annual brat-eating contest in Sheboygan by eating 18 of the sausages in 10 minutes - breaking an impending tie by downing his last one with just 15 seconds left on the clock. Travis Mizejewski didn’t think he’d win the contest Saturday, Aug. 2. He ate 17 at last year’s Brat Days Festival but lost to Bobby Smith, a Racine man who’d eaten 20. But when Smith didn’t return to defend his title, Mizejewski had the opening he needed to become the 2014 Brat Eating Champion. Asked how he felt afterward, the 34-year-old simply replied, “Full.â€? With his win, Mizejewski took home $500 and a year’s supply of Johnsonville sausage. He also won $500 for the charity of his choice, which was Sheboygan Neighbors Against Drugs. - with information from Associated Press ••• MADISON – The Wisconsin Department of Veterans Affairs is seeking nominations for the annual Wisconsin Woman Veteran of the Year Award.

Democrats vying for 7th Congressional District oppose each other on most issues Kelly Westlund, Mike Krsiean both aim to claim Sean Duffyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s seat in Congress this November Glen Moberg | WPR news NORTHERN WISCONSIN - Democrats will choose between two candidates with starkly different visions when they go to the polls in northern Wisconsinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 7th Congressional District primary election on Tuesday, Aug. 12. Both Kelly Westlund and Mike Krsiean are running for the seat now occupied by two-term Rep. Sean Duffy, R-Weston. Westlund is a businesswoman and Ashland City Council member who has the
endorsement of the Democrat Party and former 7th District Congressman Dave Obey. Krsiean is a self-employed design engineer and farmer who wants to cut the size of .HOO\ :HVWOXQG government. The two candidates oppose each other on most issues. For example, Westlund said the countryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Social Security program can be saved if wealthy people pay into it more. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In this country, the 900 wealthiest people stop paying Social Security taxes after day two of the calendar year,â&#x20AC;? said Westlund. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong.â&#x20AC;?
Krsiean, however, wants to phase out Social Security altogether. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to give young people who have not yet had quite a few years investing in the 0LNH .UVLHDQ soon-to-be-failed Social Security system (the) option to opt out.â&#x20AC;&#x153; Westlund wants to raise the minimum wage and wants an expanded role for the government in creating jobs and helping the poor. Krsiean wants to eliminate the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Education, the IRS and the
Federal Reserve. Krsiean said the Penokee Hills iron mine needs to go forward for the sake of jobs. â&#x20AC;&#x153;America needs steel,â&#x20AC;? said Krsiean. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The people of Iron County need jobs â&#x20AC;Ś (thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) 14 percent unemployment in the off-tourism season in Iron County alone.â&#x20AC;? Westlund, however, said its environmental hazards threaten jobs that already exist, such as in tourism and recreation. â&#x20AC;&#x153;When we allow this project to go forward, that jeopardizes every other longterm sustainable option that we have on the table,â&#x20AC;? said Westlund. Duffy also faces a primary challenge Aug. 12, from Superior businessman Don Raihala.

The Beatles Concert Frederic native relives 1965 concert experience after seeing Paul McCartney perform this past weekend Avis Bosak Turner | Special to the Leader FREDERIC/MINNEAPOLIS - As a girl growing up in the 1950s and 1960s, I had few experiences outside the Frederic area. +RZHYHU WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW ´UHDOÂľ FRQFHUW WKDW , ever attended was a big one! It was the Beatles concert at Metropolitan Stadium in the Cities! To this day, I have never heard that anyone else from Frederic attended the concert and the only reason that I think about it now after 49 years is because my daughters recently gave me tickets to see Paul McCartney again at his concert in Minneapolis. That first real concert was in the summer of 1965, just before my junior year at Frederic High School. I had $YLV %RVDN 7XUQHU just turned 16 years FLUFD 3KRWR old that summer and VXEPLWWHG had been a Beatles fan since Beatlemania began a year or so beforehand. That made the idea of actually seeing the Fab Four in person very exciting, especially for a teenager who had pretty much remained within a 100-mile radius of Frederic for most of her life! The invitation to go to the Beatles concert came from my friend, Cindy Wyatt, from St. Croix Falls. Cindy and I had met the year before when we were selected to exhibit animals at the Wisconsin State Fair. We immediately hit it off and our bus ride to the fair in West Allis involved a lot of talk about our love for the Beatles, for George Harrison in particular, and any other topic that was of interest to 15-year-old girls in 1964. After our trip to the fair, Cindy and I continued to keep in touch. We wrote letters, went to dances at the Frederic Rec, enjoyed sporting events when our two high schools were competing and continued to share our love for the Beatles. As Cindy remembers, I was her closest friend at the time who was also a Beatles fan. So, when her dad offered Cindy and her sisters, Judy and Nancy, a chance to go to the concert and told them they could each bring one friend, it came as no surprise that Cindy invited me. 7KH Ă&#x20AC;UVW VWHS RQ RXU URDG WR WKH FRQFHUW was to purchase tickets. We decided that we wanted the best possible seats. So we chose to order the expensive $5.50 tickets because we naively thought that we would be in the front. As it turned out, we were in the front but it was the front row of the second tier to the left of the stage, which was at second base. Even then, the closest fan would have been 40 feet away. So, although we did our best to get good seats, we were unable to see much. Cindy
hear anything besides the screaming. We couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t talk to each other because of the screaming. We couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sit and listen to the music because of the screaming. So, we ended up screaming and laughing at each other for screaming! For the most part we were unable to hear the music that night but there were a few times when we did hear a little. This generally occurred between songs. Even WKHQ LW ZDV GLIĂ&#x20AC;FXOW WR KHDU , GR UHPHPber one of the Beatles, maybe John, introducing a song from their new album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Beatles â&#x20AC;&#x2122;65.â&#x20AC;? The song was â&#x20AC;&#x153;I Feel Fineâ&#x20AC;? but I never did actually hear them play it because of the screaming. After about 30 minutes, it was all over. Even though there was screaming and craziness, Cindy remembers not wanting it to end and wanting to stay a lot longer.

said that was her only criticism of the whole thing, that you couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see them very well in such a big stadium like that. The second step was deciding what to wear. Fashion at that time was very much dictated by English styles and, in particular, what came out of Carnaby Street in London. So, I am sure, we wore something in the style of the day. Cindy says that she actually remembers the empire dress she was wearing that night. Although I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t UHPHPEHU VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;FDOO\ ZKDW , ZRUH , GR know that Cindy was right that, yes, we all wore dresses because that is what we did in 1965. We wore dresses! The trip to the concert was pretty exciting. First of all there were quite a few of us packed into the car. As I remember, it was a brandnew 1965 Chevrolet station wagon fresh RII WKH VKRZURRP Ă RRU RI WKH &KHY\ dealership that Cindyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dad owned in St. Croix Falls. Although it was a pretty big vehicle for the time, there was barely enough room for the eight of us. Since Cindy and I were the oldest, we got to sit together in the back seat with Judyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classmate, Debbie LaRue. Judy sat in the front with her dad, Tom, and her uncle, Bob. The two younger girls, Nancy and her cousin, Laurie Wyatt, sat in the back cargo area. It was one big, happy group. As Cindy remembers it, â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was all excitement the whole trip there, and the whole evening.â&#x20AC;? It didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take long before we were there. The trip from St. Croix Falls to the Cities went pretty fast and before we knew it, Metropolitan Stadium was right in front of us, and somewhere in there were the four people we had come to see: John,
Paul, George and Ringo! Although Cindy had been to Met Stadium several times before to attend Twins games, this was WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW WLPH IRU PH 6R LW ZDV GRXEO\ exciting! Unfortunately, our excitement soon WXUQHG WR ERUHGRP 7KLV ZDV RXU Ă&#x20AC;UVW concert, so we had no idea that there were opening acts. Not only were we somewhat disillusioned that the Beatles would not be entertaining us for two hours but we were also a little irritated to have to sit through the music of the other bands. What was even more annoying for us was that, except for Cannibal and the Headhunters, we had never even heard of the other performers. We had no idea who King Curtis, Brenda Holloway and the Sounds Incorporated were and we complained to each other about their presence on the stage. We were there to see the Beatles and we had no interest in hearing anyone else. While we waited for the Beatles, Cindy and I made an important decision. We decided that we were definitely not going to scream. We had seen it happen many times before on TV. Everyone always seemed to be in a frenzy and scream when they saw the Beatles, but not us. We absolutely, positively, were not going to scream. We were much too sophisticated and mature for that and, quite frankly, could not understand why people did that. However, once the Beatles took the stage, we quickly found out that we would have to reconsider our decision. Unfortunately, it was because there was nothing else to do but scream. Everyone was screaming. We couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t
line at that! I think her dad did end up driving around the stadium a little just to make us happy but, in actuality, the Beatles were probably long gone. In fact, I even read somewhere once that they were driven off in a laundry truck to the Leamington Hotel in downtown Minneapolis as soon as they were done with the concert. Had we known that this was such a historic event, we would probably have kept some evidence of our attendance besides our memories. I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy any souvenirs, take any pictures or even keep my ticket stub for very long. Neither did Cindy nor her sisters. However, we do feel fortunate that we attended because there were probably very few, if any at all, from Frederic or St. Croix Falls who also attended the concert. It was something that neither Cindy nor I had ever dreamed of doing, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s for sure. Cindy remembers it as being one of the highlights of that summer and it wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have happened without her dad. Although as Cindy says, he was no fan of the Beatles, he was a big barbershop-quartet-singing fan and harmonized in the Indianhead Chorus for many years. So although he was no fan of any pop music groups of the â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;60s, he did respect our love for the music of our era, including Beatles music. Now, 49 years later, despite the screaming, poor sound quality, the enormity of the venue and it being â&#x20AC;&#x153;a hard dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s night,â&#x20AC;?

Frac company pauses time line of project to obtain permits Gary King | Editor NORTH BRANCH, Minn. - It may be February before Superior Silica Sands can obtain the permits necessary to proceed with the construction of a frac sand facility in the city of North Branchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s industrial park, according to a letter sent to city ofĂ&#x20AC;FLDOV E\ 666 ODVW PRQWK The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency is in charge of enforcing guidelines pertaining to air and water quality for frac sand operations, some of which were passed by state legislators over the past several months. Next Wednesday, Aug. 13, representatives from the Minnesota Department of Transportation, MPCA, SSS and the city of North Branch will meet to discuss the pending project, which would involve constructing a transloading station for
frac sand in the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so-called ESSBY, or industrial park. The meeting is not a formal council meeting, and therefore not posted as a public meeting, according to city Administrator Bridgitte Konrad. SSS pulled away from the proposed project earlier this summer, citing negative public reaction to its North Branch project due not only to environmental concerns but to the projected high volume of large trucks that would be hauling sand from mines in Wisconsin to North Branch. The city of Taylors Falls, Minn., presented D SHWLWLRQ WR FLW\ RI 1RUWK %UDQFK RIĂ&#x20AC;FLDOV asking that they include in their negotiaWLRQV ZLWK 666 D SODQ WR DGGUHVV WKH WUDIĂ&#x20AC;F concerns that they felt would impact tourism and public safety. The citizen group gathered more than
3,000 signatures via an online petition opposing the project. North Branch officials favoring the project, including Mayor Ron Lindquist, have cited potential tax windfalls and jobs, and fought to bring SSS back to the negotiating table. SSS CEO Rick Shearer responded by saying his company would consider that if North Branch could â&#x20AC;&#x153;work things outâ&#x20AC;? with the city of Taylors Falls and the people would be supportive. Shearer said much of the opposition was borne of emotion and not fact. He said SSS can reroute trucks during the summer months or change hours of operation, bringing trucks in overnight. He also noted that his company works to make sure itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in compliance with all health-related standards under the law.
SSS returned to the negotiating table, sending a â&#x20AC;&#x153;re-engagementâ&#x20AC;? letter to the city of North Branch, dated July 9. The city issued a new time line for the project which called for the scheduling of required public hearings and the re-engaging of professional staff to develop a purchase agreement and site plan review. That has now been scrapped and a new time line will be developed, hinging on the progress of the permit process.

The family stayed at Haysâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home in eastern Minnesota for a while, trying to decide their future plans, which became ever more bleak as the home was essentially condemned.

Jamie L. Martinson was driving a 2003 Chevrolet TrailBlazer westbound on 70th Avenue when she failed to negotiate a curve and left the roadway. Martinson attempted to correct her course but overcorrected and lost control of the vehicle, rolling into the north ditch of 70th Avenue. Martinson was not wearing a seat belt and was ejected from the vehicle. Attempts were made to revive her at the scene by Amery Ambulance and Life

Take time to be informed After my retirement a few years ago, I grew concerned about mental atrophy and deprivation of cognitive function. So far I have not perceived any of these maladies, but then one does not usually recognize it in themselves. So I try to stay active with my ham radio station, reading and understanding more about political issues and the political process. I have met many friends around the world through radio. It has broadened my appreciation of how great we have it here in America. In our small community, which I love and assume is representative of many others around rural U.S., we often congregate for social reasons, maybe a little bit of gossip (imagine that) and occasionally political issues such as the upcoming elections. Some discussions can be quite lively because of strong opinions and partisan views. But this only makes it fun and interesting for us old guys. One thing we all seem to agree on, however, is it appears many have become lackadaisical and ambivalent about elections. Can we blame it on the explosion of reality TV, which many think is real, or the evolution of hand-held intelligent electronics which has permeated all levels of society? Or is it the fact that people have lost faith in government due to a Congress that can accomplish nothing and a president who persistently evokes executive privilege? Maybe itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just me, but I love to hear other peoplesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; opinions and then form my own. The Leader from my experience has always been very objective this way. I guess the message Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m trying to convey is that the elections are coming up fast, and I talk to many people who just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s their prerogative, but the election results could affect them personally. Take time to get informed and vote. Rick Dahlstrom Lewis

Which kind of leader do you want? In a classic case of putting down oneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s opponent to try to make oneself look good, the Democrats have resorted to referring to Republicans as stupid, etc., in a desperate attempt to shore up support ahead of this fallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s midterm elections. While the liberals have been engaged in name-calling, Republicans have been enacting commonsense legislation to improve everyday Americansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; lives. The president likes to rail against what he calls a â&#x20AC;&#x153;do-nothing Congress.â&#x20AC;? However, Rep. Duffy and his colleagues in the House have passed 290 bills, 40 of them jobs bills, which Majority Leader Harry Reid has stacked up like cordwood in the Senate and refused to even bring to a vote. If the president wants Congress to act, he should pick up his much-touted pen and phone Harry Reid to get moving. The American people would appreciate it, too. A recent Fox news poll found that 58 percent disapprove of Obamaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going it alone with numerous executive orders and refusal to enforce existing laws.

Their concerns are well-founded. A recent Democratleaning poll by the Democracy Corps found that, in the 12 states likely to decide control of the Senate this fall, 60 percent disapprove of the way the president is doing his job and 50 percent strongly disapprove. While the president has presided over the weakest recovery since World War II ZLWK D Ă&#x20AC;YH \HDU DQQXDO DYHUDJH JURZWK UDWH of less than 2.5 percent, the actions of Gov.

Pie slicing not always tasty No matter how you slice the ambulance-building pie or issue, it leaves a bad taste somewhere. We need to look at the facts. This is no longer Unity Area Ambulance. It is, in fact, St. Croix EMS, part of Lakes Area Ambulance. As part of this service the Milltown Ambulance locates in Centuria when the St. Croix unit is out on a run or transfer, which can be several hours. Therefore, it is not 10 minutes away from the Milltown service area. Also, the ambulance is well-staffed, but likely not by those familiar with the area, therefore relying on GPS, which is not always accurate. As far as signing a longterm contract, there is no guarantee it will be honored. Contracts are broken every day. The business could be sold, foreclosed, any number of reasons.

Small turnout at first ordinance hearing
Debate centers on shoreland regulations
Gregg Westigard | Staff writer LUCK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; About 20 members of the public WXUQHG RXW 0RQGD\ $XJ IRU WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW RI three public hearings on the proposed Polk County Zoning Ordinance. Seven people spoke about sections of the proposal but QR VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;F FKDQJHV ZHUH SUHVHQWHG 7KHUH will be two more hearings, Aug. 11 and 18, on the ordinance which combines existing zoning and shoreland regulations into one document which will regulate land use in most of Polk County. Dick Hollar, Pipe Lake in Johnstown, said he was a member of the citizens advisory group which met for over two years reviewing ordinance ideas. He said that the group did its job and presented a
draft to the land information committee of the county board. Hollar said that Chris Nelson introduced some new ideas and the CAG held an additional meeting. All the Nelson amendments were reviewed, with a majority of the CAG members voting against them, Hollar said. He said those same amendments later came to the land information committee as the Brown amendments. Karen Engelbretson, Bone Lake, said she supports the Nehring amendment that requires an inspection of the private sewage system of a cabin being sold. Jeff Peterson, Georgetown, said the proposed ordinance addresses the concerns of most Polk County residents. He presented a petition signed by over 240 residents that favor passage of the ordinance. Peterson said he is not sure the current setback rules (for lakefront homes) are working all that
well. He said the DNR has recently added eight county lakes to its list of lakes with concerns. Peterson went on to address some of the Brown amendments which he said would lead to a rolling list of nonconforming cabins around the lakes. Ron Vantine, Pipe Lake, said he supports the views of the previous speakers. He said that homeowners making repairs WR \HDU ROG KRPHV FRXOG H[SHFW WR Ă&#x20AC;QG problems and it is not common sense to allow major repairs to an existing house only 35 feet from the lakes. Chris Nelson, Balsam Lake, said he is a contractor who tries to keep to green standards. He said he mostly agrees with the proposals but thinks some issues slipped by the CAG during its review process. For example, Nelson said, why should only farmers be allowed to build accessory structures on their property and not other
people. He said if the concern is that people would turn those structures into living areas, why not just prohibit that use. Nelson added that some changes could reduce the number of issues sent to the board of adjustments in the future. The six members of the conservation committee, Kim Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connell, Dean Johansen, Warren Nelson, Jim Edgell, Craig Moriak and Dale Wood, are listening to the comments and suggestions presented at the three hearings. Once the hearings are concluded, the committee will consider any changes to the draft and present the proposed zoning ordinance to the county board for adoption. The next two hearings will be held Monday, Aug. 11, at the Polk County Government Center in Balsam Lake and Monday, Aug. 18, at the Dresser Community Center. All hearings start at 7 p.m.

driving: Efforts to combat drunken driving in Wisconsin through effective enforcement and education are showing positive results, according to Wisconsin Department of Transportation statistics. In the past 10 years, fatalities from alcohol-related crashes dropped from 348 in 2003 to 185 in 2013, which is a 47-percent reduction. Injuries from alcohol-related crashes dropped from 6,445 in 2003 to 2,660 in 2013, which is a 59-percent reduction. Although they are making progress in preventing drunken driving, too many people are still being killed or injured because of the irresponsible decision to drive while
impaired. Drunken driving is completely preventable: â&#x20AC;˘ Choose a sober designated driver before you start drinking. â&#x20AC;˘ If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re feeling buzzed, you likely are over the 0.08 BAC limit and should not drive. â&#x20AC;˘ Rather than risk an arrest, take mass transit, a taxicab or ask a sober friend to drive you home. â&#x20AC;˘ Some taverns and restaurants have programs to provide patrons with a safe ride home. Visit tlw.org/ and click on Safe Ride. â&#x20AC;˘ Report impaired drivers to law enforcement by calling 911.

The clouded issues on the van driver LUCK â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Mark William Wright was driving on a suspended license at the time of the crash, and was not insured. The van he was driving was totaled and did not belong to him, at least it was not registered to him. The vehicle was still registered to attorney Dennis Lieder of Webster, who has apparently told author-
ities that he sold it to another party, who then sold it to Wright, although no title transfer was ever made, to either person, and the van still wore Leiderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s personalized license plates - expired since April 2013 - when the accident occurred. Repeated queries to Lieder for comPHQW RU YHULĂ&#x20AC;FDWLRQ RQ ZKR KH DOOHJHGO\ sold the van to were never returned. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It did not come up as being reported VWROHQ DQG WKHUH LV QRWKLQJ LQ WKH Ă&#x20AC;OH DV to whether it was sold to him (Wright) or borrowed to him,â&#x20AC;? Polk County Sheriff Peter Johnson said shortly after the crash. Under Wisconsin law, when someone sells a vehicle, the license plates remain with the previous owner and do not go with the vehicle. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s against the law (to keep the plates on a sold vehicle),â&#x20AC;? stated Trooper Derrek Hanson of the Wisconsin State Patrol, who cited several clauses on the sale of a vehicle, under Chapter 341 of the Wisconsin State Statutes. He said it is up to the purchasing party to transfer a title, but the party who sells a vehicle also has some responsibility. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Even selling the vehicle to a relative, you should make a photocopy (of the title transfer) right away,â&#x20AC;? Hanson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It takes the liability off of the (previous) owner.â&#x20AC;? While the law places the liability of a driving infraction on the driver of a vehicle, Hanson said that hypothetically, if the vehicle was stopped with expired tags, the police would not be able to take the plates, but would instead ask who the vehicle belonged to, and if it came back as still being registered to the previous owner, the police have no way to know if the person is borrowing the vehicle or actually purchased it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re none the wiser, if they say they are just borrowing it (the vehicle), as thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not against the law,â&#x20AC;? Hanson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter who the vehicle came back to (as the registered owner) because the driver would be issued the citation.â&#x20AC;? Johnson questioned why someone would leave personalized, expired plates on a vehicle you sell, especially someone whose career is based on a knowledge of the law. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While one normally keeps the plates associated with a vehicle when you sell it, it is not illegal to not do so, just stupid,â&#x20AC;? Johnson said. Mark Wright had turned 50 years old just four days prior to the crash, and had a long history of driving infractions, with a number of criminal convictions over two decades prior. In fact, he had last been convicted of driving after suspension and without insurance two years ago in Hastings, and was under a court order to maintain insurance if he was driving. Wright had convictions for everything from driving while intoxicated to vehicle theft, criminal damage to property, assault, and several convictions involving careless and aggravated driving. He had at least four DUI convictions since 1991 in Minnesota alone and his license was suspended at the time of the crash and had been for several years. He died in a coma and did not have an autopsy. It was only through repeated queries from the Leader that his death ZDV HYHQ FRQĂ&#x20AC;UPHG DOWKRXJK WKH GDWH RI his death even remains unclear. Ramsey County authorities have never given an answer as to why no autopsy was ever performed or why local authorities were never informed of Wrightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s passing.

and a new foundation built, but will update and refurbish the home to make it PRUH HQHUJ\ HIĂ&#x20AC;FLHQW DQG VDIH Several neighbors joined in the ground breaking, many of whom recalled the accident that twisted the home and left the family homeless. One neighbor described the crash as â&#x20AC;&#x153;terrifying.â&#x20AC;? WRHFH director of development Susan Sommer led the dedication ceremony. As she told the condensed version of the tragedy that collided with the Hays/ Sandager family that October evening, she also noted that the situation had been grim and sad, but now may have a glimmer of hope ahead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hopefully, this is the start of a new chapter, with a bit of promise,â&#x20AC;? Sommer said. Sommer presented the family with gold-painted shovels as they turned a bit of earth for the ceremony. She said the house lifting and foundation rebuilding may take up to two months, and there could be another two months of reconstruction and improvement to the home after that. HFH is not doing it for free, as the family needs to not only work at least 500 hours on their and other projects, but they will need to make zero-interest payments for much of the work. But in general that process has already begun, as Hays has been working at the HFH ReStore for months, logging over 150 hours already. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love it,â&#x20AC;? she exclaimed, noting how she is now a fan of HFH, as is her husband, Brian. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just excited,â&#x20AC;? Sandager said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;To see what Habitat for Humanity does, and now I realize what kind of good you can do, I want to do it for other people, also!â&#x20AC;? As the couple turned the earth on the ceremonial ground breaking, they also bowed their heads as Pastor Rozumalski read a verse from the book of James, how faith is one thing, but deeds to help those in need is even better. Hays and Sandager smiled wide as their son Jack struggled to turn the dry ground. The couple even posed with those infectious smiles a while later - beside the corner of the broken home where their lives changed. Sandager even managed to smile and joke about another incident this spring, when a huge tree fell on their Chevy Suburban parked on the property, likely totaling the truck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I even told April a while back, I better take that tree down, it might cause some damage!â&#x20AC;? he said with a grin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Maybe our luck is changing a bit now?â&#x20AC;? Even with their change of fortune, Sandager admits it still might be a good idea to push for a guardrail by the highway. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bad things tend to happen in threes ...â&#x20AC;? he said with a shrug.

Ahlgren Wildlife Preserve dedicated
Eagle oversees event
David, bought the property in 1975. They preserved the property over the years, planting some trees on the prairie portions of the land but protecting the woods and waters as a home for the wildlife, including the eagle whose nest is in a large pine on the east bank of the stream. She Ă&#x20AC;UVW RIIHUHG WKH SURSHUW\ LQ -DQXDU\ but there were long delays before the county board accepted the donation, by a split vote, in April 2013. The property is open to the public but remains in a wildlife state. At present there are several access points but the land has not been developed beyond a newly mowed trail winding through the prairie and pines at the corner of 120th Avenue and 150th Street. There are two undeveloped access points to the water for canoes and kayaks. This is a good wild-rice bed. Future plans call for the development of trails in 2016 and possible cross-country skiing trails sooner. But the Ahlgren donation will remain a peaceful preserve forever.
Gregg Westigard | Staff writer BALSAM LAKE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A bald eagle soared from its nest and sat in a tree overlooking the people who were gathered to dedicate the Ahlgren Wildlife Preserve and Recreation Area Saturday, Aug. 2. It seemed to be welcoming folks to the 180-acre site along the Balsam Branch in the Town of Balsam Lake, which is now RIĂ&#x20AC;FLDOO\ D SDUW RI WKH 3RON &RXQW\ 3DUNV system. The property was donated to the county by Janet Ahlgren in memory of the Ahlgren family. It took over three years to reach this day. Members of the Ahlgren family came from many parts of the county to attend the dedication of the land to the memory of the family whose children went from a small farm near Frederic to become wellknown citizens of Wisconsin and beyond. The Ahlgren Wildlife Preserve includes a mile of property on both sides of the Balsam Branch between Hwy. 8 on the north and 120th Avenue on the south. It includes the downstream waterway visible from the highway bridge one-half mile west of the Hwy. 46 intersection leading to Balsam Lake. The preserve adjoins the D.D. Kennedy Park to the south.

Visiting the Ahlgren Wildlife Preserve Gregg Westigard | Staff writer BALSAM LAKE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The Ahlgren Wildlife Preserve and Recreation Area today remains very much the way Janet and David Ahlgren protected the property over the 40 years they owned it. But for those willing to explore some beautiful lands, there are four sections awaiting the adventurous. Each section has a special Ă DYRU $OO EXW RQH DUH XQGHYHORSHG 7KH Ă&#x20AC;UVW VHFWLRQ LV WKH VRXWKHDVW FRUner of the preserve just east of the Balsam Branch on 120th Street. Look for a small turnoff by a metal gate. Hike north, roughly following an old fence line on the right. Soon there is a bit of higher ground angling to the northwest. That leads into an old forest piece above the stream. The eagle nest is in this section. (See story above) The second section is the property at 120th and 150th where the dedication was held. A newly mowed trail winds through the piece of prairie grasses and planted pines. At one point where the trail nears the stream at the eastern edge of the section, the eagleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nest is visible across the water. Parking is along the road. The third section is the largest piece of land. This is the property along 150th street from the Bridget Lake access on the south to Bridget Lake Lane on the north. There are three old metal gates along this stretch. Each leads into an area of prairie intermixed with planted pines. There is a
bit of old forest on the north edge. The east edge of the section is the Balsam Branch. The fourth section is off Hwy. 8 in the northwest corner of the preserve. There is a trace of a turnoff from Hwy. 8 just west of the highway bridge and across the road from a driveway on the north side of the highway. It is possible to drive in a very short distance and park by the power
transmission tower. From there an old trail/road leads south through old forest. There is the trace of a path on the left leading to the water. The trail leads south until it comes to a small waterway leading to ponds to the west. A last section, the northeast corner of the preserve, is not possible to reach on foot. The property line, which is not
staked, is wetland here and for quite a way south and the higher land to the east is private property. In addition there is no place to park. All four pieces are bits of adventure, wild, unmarked, little-visited preserves in the heart of Polk County.

Football practices begin for area high-schoolers â&#x20AC;&#x153;We used to have six days of contact before scrimmage, now weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got four,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said. Football has certainly changed over the years, from equipment to playmaking, practices and conference alignments and everything in between. But no matter what the WIAA changes might bring to each passing season athletes will continue WR JDWKHU RQ WKH Ă&#x20AC;HOG LQ DQWLFLSDWLRQ IRU the season ahead, and coaches will continue to teach and coach their kids toward what they will hope to be a winning season ahead.
With another season comes change Marty Seeger|Staff writer FREDERIC â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s still four weeks left of summer vacation for many students before they get back in the groove of school, but on Tuesday, Aug. 5, area high school football players were already EXV\ WHDULQJ XS WKH WXUI RQ WKHLU Ă&#x20AC;UVW GD\ of football practice. For Ken Belanger, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a sense of enthusiasm on WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW GD\ RI SUDFWLFH VRPHWKLQJ KH¡V been familiar with for the past 57 consecutive years. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have junior high football so since the ninth grade, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been going to football practice every fall,â&#x20AC;? said Belanger, who coached 35 years in Minnesota for Zumbrota-Mazeppa High School, and was inducted into the Minnesota High School Coaches Hall of Fame in 2001. This will be his 14th season with the Vikings, since he retired from teaching and moved to the Frederic area. All together Belanger has been a head football coach for the past 49 years, and through the course of time there have been many changes implemented to the game, including the earlier than usual start to the season. Belanger recalled the year he married his wife during his college football playing years, getting hitched on Aug. 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Went on a honeymoon and came back and we still hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t started football,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said, adding that for many, football didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t start until after Labor Day. Other changes include the use of game Ă&#x20AC;OP WKDW LV QRWKLQJ OLNH LW LV WRGD\ â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not into the fancy stuff. That in itself is so different,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said. And with another year of football ahead, area coaches were once again presented with a few more challenges, abiding a handful of new WIAA rules meant to protect the safety of the players. The practice time allowed has shortened, as in previous years practices could run from 7:30 a.m., to noon. Now practice can be two hours long with a half hour break, followed by one more hour of practice before it ends. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s considered a short day. Coaches also have an option of doing a long day, but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a mandatory three-hour break in between the morning and afternoon or evening practice. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s too much to have kids come back twice. So weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not doing that,â&#x20AC;? Belanger said. Rules of contact during practices have also changed. By this Friday, Aug. 8, players were usually in full pads, but now can only wear a helmet and shoulder pads, and need to wait until the following MonGD\ WR GRQ IXOO SDGV 'XULQJ WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW ZHHN contact is not allowed except for use with a bag, shield or pad. During the second week of practice, full contact is limited to just 75 minutes for the week, excluding the scrimmages, which take place across the area Aug. 15. During week three and for the rest of the season, full contact is limited to 60 minutes per week, which excludes games.

St. Croix Falls youth baseball ends action-packed summer ST. CROIX FALLS â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The St. Croix Falls Baseball Association kept busy over the summer with their tee-ball, coach pitch one, coach pitch two, and fourth-grade traveling baseball programs. Kids from age 5 to 10 years old played baseball on Ã&#x20AC;HOGV ORFDWHG RQ WKH 6W &URL[ )DOOV DQG Dresser school campuses. At last count, 206 kids spent their summer months practicing drills, learning skills and playing games. A total of 81 games, spread out over the four levels, were scheduled for the young Saints. The SCFBA is run by a group of volunteers who set up the registration, coordinate equipment and uniforms, form teams and create schedules. Parent volunteers then coach the kids. Strong community support and dedication from caring parents truly makes this program a success. Twenty-three businesses helped sponsor the program this year too, which helps keep the cost very low for the kids to participate. The association extends gratitude to their sponsors including Eagle Valley Bank, All-Season Clean, NEI Electric, Truhlson Chiropractic, RBC Wealth, U.S.

less tag purchasing process, the department is hosting an online bonus antlerless tags chat at noon on Tuesday, Aug. 12. DNR regulations experts will be on hand to answer all tag-related questions. For more information, visit dnr.wi.gov and search keyword chat. In 2014, antlerless carcass tags will be available in 55 county units. Each gun deer, archer and crossbow-hunting license will include one antlerless tag. This antlerless tag will be valid in county units within the Central Farmland and Southern Farmland zones. Those who wish to harvest an additional antlerless deer must purchase a XQLW DQG ]RQH VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;F ERQXV DQWOHUOHVV deer carcass tag ($12 for residents, $5 for 10- and 11-year-olds, and $20 for adult QRQUHVLGHQWV 7KHVH WDJV ZLOO EH VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;F to public or private land - hunters will need to be aware of which land type they
plan to hunt before purchasing an additional bonus antlerless tag. Nineteen county units, in whole or portion, have been designated as buck only in 2014 to encourage herd growth. Antlerless tags will not be available for purchase LQ WKHVH XQLWV +RZHYHU TXDOLĂ&#x20AC;HG PHPbers of the U.S. Armed Forces home on furlough or leave, Class A and C disabled permit hunters, and youth hunters ages 10-17 will be allowed to harvest an antlerless deer in buck only units. Bonus tags for the Northern Forest and Central Forest zones will be available for purchase starting Monday, Aug. 18, at 10 a.m. Tags for the Central Farmland Zone will be available Aug. 19 at 10 a.m. Southern Farmland Zone tags will be available Aug. 20 at 10 a.m. All remaining tags will be available for purchase, Thursday, Aug. 21 at 10 a.m. Those who purchase a 2014 deer-hunt-
ing license before Aug. 18 can expedite the tag purchasing process, since hunters must obtain a deer hunting license before they can purchase a bonus antlerless tag. Remaining tag numbers are updated daily. If a unit is not listed, no tags have been allotted for that unit in 2014. It is important to note that county units with low numbers of available tags will likely sell out quickly. Hunters are encouraged to check out the frequently asked questions page for more information. The FAQ feature provides brief responses to a wide variety of deer hunting questions, ranging from deer management unit boundaries to antlerless permits.

Siren Telephone celebrates 100 years by going down memory lane Sherill Summer |Staff writer SIREN - Phones are everywhere these days, in Siren and elsewhere, but most phones today have little in common with the telephones of old. On Friday, Aug. 1, Siren Telephone Company celebrated 100 years of service in the Siren area outside WKHLU 6LUHQ RIĂ&#x20AC;FH RQ 0DLQ 6WUHHW ,W ZDV an opportunity to celebrate not only the history of the Siren Telephone Co., but to celebrate the astounding changes in the industry. It so happened that the celebration took place just yards from where the Siren Hotel used to stand. It was there in 1912, more than 100 years ago, that Charlie Peterson moved the telephone company WR WKH VHFRQG Ă RRU +LV WZR GDXJKWHUV served as operators. This was an improvement from when the only service in the Siren area was out of a farmhouse near Viola Lake, and the phone lines were strung on barbed-wire fences. Then there was one line to Webster and one line to Spooner. Service was available if a member of the family was in the house to answer a call. There was no information on how many Siren residents had a telephone in 1912, but by 1948 there were 220 â&#x20AC;&#x153;subscribers.â&#x20AC;? The amount of people serviced grew to 387 by 1957, and the area served by Siren Telephone included the village, WKH DUHD PLOHV HDVW RI WKH YLOODJH Ă&#x20AC;YH miles west and south of the village, and two miles north of the village. Then as now, anyone who was served by the telephone company would be listed in the phone book. On hand at the 100-year celebration were old phone books from as early as 1939. As with todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s phone books, names are listed

alphabetically, but the phone numbers were as short as two numbers, and many phone numbers included letters. The letters represented combinations of long and short rings used by switchboard operators to connect calls. Also available for viewing was an old switchboard used in Siren prior to when the company switched to dial operation in 1962. The last manual connection was made at precisely 11:59 p.m. on March 28 of that year. According to the historical account of the company, a fond farewell was given to four switchboard operators after the switch to dial in 1962. From then on, making a phone call became much more private and convenient, especially long-distance phone calls.
According to the general manager of Siren Telephone Co., Sid Sherstad, making long-distance calls before direct dial was expensive. More often than not, anyone who wanted to communicate with someone far away would write a letter. Today, Siren Telephone Co. is as much about providing Internet service as it is about providing telephone service, and the history of the Internet evolution is also noted in the company history.

POLK COUNTY CLERK OF COURT August 12, 2014
I am currently the Chief Deputy in the Clerk of Court Office, and my goals as Clerk of Court are to continue the same level of efficiency currently provided to court users, maintain continuity for staff and find ways to create new efficiencies. My experience in the Clerk of Court Office consists of managing and leading staff, training of staff members, drafting office policies and procedures, assisting in preparing the budget, writing monthly reports and annual reports. I also handle the day-to-day office duties within the office.
Your VOTE August 12 will determine who the next Clerk of Circuit Court will be.
