Trial avoided in snowstorm DUI death

Court hearing reveals lesser charges; Fisher enters no-contest pleas

Greg Marsten | Staff writer BALSAM LAKE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; A plea settlement has been reached to avoid a jury trial in the case against Jeanne Fisher, 33, Frederic, the woman accused in the Jan. 26, 2014, death of Chad Hansen, whom Fisher struck with her car as he walked down the highway in a near zero-visibility snowstorm between Luck and Milltown.

Fisher stood accused of two felony counts of homicide by intoxicated use of a vehicle, and faced up to 50 years in prison, if convicted. Her no-contest plea to a lesser charge of second-degree reckless endangerment not only avoids a trial, but seriously reduces her possibility of prison time.

Fisherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jury trial was originally scheduled to start on Tuesday, June 16, before Polk County Judge Jeffery Anderson, but instead B63 P@AB 2/G =4 the trial became 2.;;2 6@52? a plea hearing, where the state and defense agreed to avoid a trial and instead settle on a lesser charge.

She appeared with her defense attorney, Bruce P. Anderson, who worked with Polk County District Attorney Dan Steffen to work out an amicable agreement, with Steffen agreeing to the reduced charges of felony second-degree reckless endangerment and a civil charge of operating while intoxicated.

Steffen said later that after consulting with a variety of people involved in the case, he noted that there is within

EMS personnel arrived on scene a short time later and pulled Hansen from the windshield, but they said he could not be revived and was likely deceased shortly after the impact, if not immediately.

During initial interviews with Fisher, a sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputy noted a mild odor of intoxicants, and Fisher admitted she was at a Luck tavern just prior to the crash.

Olson listed several ways in which help from the village will be necessary, starting with general cooperation.

He then said that, like last year, Main Street will need to be closed from morning until the majority of the runners come back in. He also said that licenses will be needed to allow people to walk outside the bar into an enclosed area, with an open container.

He assured the board that the event organizers and volunteers strive to be very professional, and the responsibilities of the village will be very minimal.

Luck tourism director April Johnson is willing to take on the responsibility of having food vendors for the event. According to village public works director Seth Petersen, who has worked with Olson on the event both years, only church groups or community organizations will be able to operate a food booth. These booths will be for fundraising purposes.

After recent fatal crashes, bike advocate stresses importance of biking safety Expert says more commuters should try biking Chris Malina | WPR News MADISON - A handful of serious bicycle crashes in southern Wisconsin, some fatal, have made headlines in recent weeks. For many bike riders, these crashes highlight the dangers that go along with sharing the road with vehicles, but one local bike expert says a little bit of preparation can go a long way in ensuring safety for cyclists and motorists alike.

Zachary Barnes, central region director of the Wisconsin Bike Federation, said that safety is something all riders should take into account.

That means taking a few moments before biking to consider some of the same things one would when jumping in a car.

To that end, Barnes said it can be helpful to think of a bike as a vehicle rather than a toy or a recreational object.

Once out on the road, Barnes said predictability is the most important thing for cyclists to consider. That means riding according to the rules of the road, not making sudden and rash decisions and being aware of the current conditions.

In addition, he said it also means being courteous, not just to motorists, but pedestrians.

Supervisors defend shoreland zoning regulation

Gregg Westigard | Staff writer BALSAM LAKE â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The main focus of the Polk County Board meeting Tuesday, June 16, was reaction to two items in the proposed Wisconsin state budget. One of those items would limit county regulation of shoreland zoning. The other would affect the fees county medical examiners could charge. Both proposals were recent additions to the budget debate in Madison. And the county reacted to both those Madison proposals with resolutions added to the boardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda in recent days.

One resolution called for the Legislatureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Joint Committee on Finance to remove an item that would prohibit county governments from enacting shoreland zoning ordinances with standards higher than the stateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s minimums. That proposal has been submitted to Joint Finance by Rep. Adam Jarchow in late May.

L)67A B/93A /E/G =C@ /07:7BG B= >@=B31B our lakes,â&#x20AC;? Supervisor Patricia Schmidt A/72 L,3 ;CAB A/G 6=E 7;>=@B/<B =C@ lakes are. If passed, our lakes are on the road to pollution.â&#x20AC;?

Polk County has been in the process of rewriting its zoning and shoreland protection ordinances for several years.

Schmidtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s comments were one of a number made by board members and the public on how Jarchowâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposal would affect that work.

Alex Chorewycz, a member of the Bone Lake Management District Board, said that district has tried to mitigate runoff issues. He said the county needs to keep the authority to set standards.

Supervisor Kim Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Connell said the Jarchow proposal would strip the county of all its power on shoreland protection and reverse all the work on zoning regulations done over the past four years. Supervisor Dean Johansen noted that there was no public hearing on the new proposal. Supervisor Warren Nelson said this was an issue of losing local control. And Super-

So far, bids have been placed on three of the eight parcels, but past history has shown that the action often picks up on the last days.

The auction site can be accessed on the Polk County website, co.polk.wi.us, by clicking the property auction link on the left-hand column. Descriptions and photos of each property are shown along with the current bids. The parcels, located from Black Brook to Lorain, can all be visited and could make for a pleasant series of walks in the country over the coming weekend. Several of the parcels are wooded lots.

'A<?F <3 <?.6; 9<A@ )E= =4 B63 :=BA /@3 7< / A;/:: L23D3:opmentâ&#x20AC;? on CTH W in Lorain. These are long thin parcels 100 feet wide and stretching back into the woods. The story of that development, as told by some of the adjacent property owners, is interesting.

Back in the 1960s a developer divided a 40-acre woods into 13 identical parcels fronting on W. The properties were marketed as Wisconsin vacation sites. A couple who then lived in Chicago said they saw the ad and phoned the seller.

An agent visited their home and showed them pictures of the site. The family bought their lot for $150. Another current owner of one of the lots told the Leader he taps the maple trees on his parcel, using wood on the long narrow lot to boil the sap.

An odd feature of the Lorain strips of land is the property taxes on them. The two parcels up for auction appear to be identical, each 100 feet wide and next to similar 100-foot wide wooded lots. Despite the similarity, one parcel has an estimated yearly property tax of $136 and the other an estimated tax of $77.

visor Craig Moriak said the Jarchow proposal has nothing to do with the budget and should stand on its own as a separate proposal.

The county board adopted the resolution by unanimous voice vote.

The second item added to the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s agenda was a proposal at the Legislature that would limit the counties from changing coroner and medical examiner fees.

Jonn Dinnies, Polk County medical examiner, said the proposal was added to the state budget debate by an organization of funeral directors with no local support.

He said the restrictions would take away the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ability to set fees to cover actual costs.

The board passed a resolution to raise the countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s medical examinerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fees now to prevent them from being frozen in the future.

The other county board action was its annual evaluation of the county administrator in closed session.

Jarchow was not at the Polk County Board meeting but issued this statement

The 2015 Best High Schools ranking was based on state standardized tests and college preparedness. Standardized tests show how well the district serves all students rather than just the college-bound, and its ability to educate students across a wide range of performance indicators.

Assessing the degree to which the school prepares students for college-level work was based on Advanced Placement or International Baccalaureate test data.

Luckâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s standardized test scores indicated that high school students scored near the state average in math and above the state average in reading.

Nearly 31 percent of Luck seniors were above the state average for college readiness, with 46 percent taking Advanced Placement tests and 26 percent passing those tests.

Luck High School Principal Brad Werner received the report on the last day of school, commenting that it was a great way to end the school year.

The top-ranked 500 schools in the country, including two in Wisconsin, received a gold medal. The next 2,027, including Luck and 46 other Wisconsin school districts, received a silver medal.

Wisconsin schools received 83 out of the 3,990 bronze medals that were awarded.

The other 13,000-plus schools that participated nationwide were not ranked.

ural Wisconsin citizens often feel B63G /@3 53BB7<5 LB63 A6=@B 3<2 =4 B63 stickâ&#x20AC;? in resource allocation, according to a study by University of Wisconsin - Madison political scientist Katherine Cramer.

Her study, to be included in an upcoming book, may help to shed light on the current struggles in the state Capitol over issues like highway funding, a $500 million basketball arena in Milwaukee, reducing taxes on the wealthy, and changes in labor laws and social service programs.

Resentment toward certain groups is a key part of understanding the political mix in Wisconsin, she says in a draft chapter of the book. More than a straight-out opposition to government, 7B 7A / ?C3AB7=< =4 E6= 7A 03<3PB7<5 4@=; government programs. Who is deserving?

The resentment often is aimed at public employees themselves rather than government programs. That helps explain why Gov. Scott Walkerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s successful efforts to end most collective bargaining was popular among many in rural areas.

When you are sick, this is extremely important.

To prevent Lyme disease following a possible tick bite, the prevailing standard is to prescribe a single, 200 mg. dose of doxcycline. However, a careful examination of the single-dose trial demonstrates this approach is not effective.

In addition, anaplasmosis and ehrlichiosis, two common co-infections, are not cured with a single dose of doxycycline.

Points on Lyme disease testing must also be understood. Commercial tests are insensitive and may miss up to 75 percent of all Lyme disease cases, as demonstrated by a Johns Hopkins study done several years ago. Doctors may erroneously believe that the Lyme disease Western Blot results must meet the CDCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s criteria in order to be positive.

The majority of people who do have Lyme disease do not produce every CDC @3?C7@32 0/<2 B6CA >/B73<BA E6= 6/D3 Lyme could very well be turned away.

Our area Lyme education and support group, who meet in Amery the fourth Thursday of the month at 7 p.m. at Our Saviorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Lutheran Church on CTH F, have test kits available from the IGeneX Laboratory in Palo Alto, Calif.

Their technicians are trained to recognize the pathogens of tick-borne diseases. Unlike other labs which run tests to look for hundreds of diseases every day, IGeneX

They offer their interpretation of their test results to help our doctors diagnose this disease. Handouts about this are also available at our meetings.

On Thursday evening, June 25, we will (again) be having Bradley Bush, a naturopathic doctor from Stillwater, Minn., as our guest speaker. This will be an informative presentation that includes the complexity of treating Lyme and the coinfections along with the use of antibiotics. The use of exercise will be explained, a component for it has been shown to be just as effective as antidepressants at reducing depression, and can increase brain levels of certain neurotransmitters that are associated with energy, metabolism and sleep.

And remember, educate yourselves.

It would be well worth your while to spend time reading one or more of the various books on Lyme disease that are available in your library. They are yours to borrow just for the asking.

Looking forward to seeing you on the June 25.

The book recalls how Walker ran /5/7<AB B63 L>=:7B71/: ;/167<3AM 7< "/27son and Milwaukee when he sought to be elected governor. Once elected, the governor emphasized the position by turning down $810 million in federal funds for a high-speed rail link between the two cities, saying average citizens wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t use the train and there was no guarantee it would eventually be extended to the rural northwest corner of Wisconsin.

Time has changed the situation.

Walker is now promoting public tax support to help build an arena for professional basketball in Milwaukee. That has drawn sharp criticism â&#x20AC;&#x201C; even from some of the right-wing groups which are encouraging his bid to be the next president of the United States.

Cramerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s report on interviews with citizens in rural Wisconsin indicated support for public education. Yet the state budget waiting to be passed increases money for and expands government support for nonpublic education.

Walker has refused to approve additional fees or taxes for road projects. If highway construction were scaled back, rural residents will be watching to see how their areas did compared to Milwaukee.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve had time to think about the fallibility of the human body these past few weeks as I recuperate from kneereplacement surgery. Things wear out.

But the choice of an arbitrary number, in this case 75, seems misguided as well, and doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t allow for individual differences, his own or others.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m blessed with numerous friends in their 80s and even a few in their 90s, and all would agree that their best days cognitively speaking are probably behind them.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve watched Fred and Joan, in their late 80s, confront the need to give up their much-loved rural life lifestyle of the past 35 years for an assisted living high-rise in the Twin Cities. Both have a number of physical maladies, but their calm, measured approach to these changes and their Zen-like acceptance of what is has been instructive for all those around them and will serve as a model for all of us as we age.

Sad day Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a sad day in Polk and Burnett coun counties. Our representative in the state Assembly has revealed his support for builders and real estate people over the rest of us.

Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve learned that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taken this action

behind the backs of the people, sneaking his amendment into the budget bill without revealing to the people what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s up to. His weekly report doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mention what heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done. It is truly a sad, sad day in our counties.

Spending a day at the one-room school Priscilla Bauer | Staff writer GRANTSBURG â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Dresses and bonnets, caps and bib overalls were the uniforms of the day for Grantsburg Elementary School students as they paraded down the street for a day at the one-room Reed Schoolhouse, just a short walk from the students modern-day school.

Throughout the month of May, a steady

parade of children in yesteryear attire could be seen bounding up the steps of the historic rural school, peeking from behind trees while playing a game of old-fashioned hide-and-seek or enjoying a picnic lunch on the lawn.

According to Howie Cohenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Everything Bicycles website, the MSRP on the bike was $76.95, a hefty price for a bike in 1953.

Many of the local kids in Westigardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hometown were buying bikes at that time and he recalls going all over the neighborhood with it, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t until eight years later, at the age of 20, that he put the bike to a real test.

After spending a year at Macalester College, Westigard had a change of heart about going back to school in the fall.

L /:: 1/;3 /<2 @3/::G E/A<OB 433:7<5 good about stuff so instead of going back to school I put a luggage rack on here and a sleeping bag and just rode off.â&#x20AC;?

Adding a luggage rack and packing his bike with about 80 pounds of gear, including food, clothing and sleeping bag, he spent the months of September and $1B=03@ 7< =< 67A (16E7<< P@AB B@/Deling south to La Crosse before heading east to Chicago, Ill. L 6/2 1=<B/1BA 63@3 /<2 B63@3 <3E some people in Wisconsin and visited them. Went around to Detroit and visited friends there,â&#x20AC;? Westigard said.

After Michigan he headed across the Blue Water Bridge into lower Canada. He headed back into New York and toured the East, stopping at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire to visit a friend and at Yale University in New Haven, Conn., to visit another friend. He ended the trip visiting with family and friends just outside of New York City, and the day after he stopped riding, snow began to fall.

After two months on the Schwinn, Westigard shipped his bike back home, but the memories of that trip are still

vivid today. As one can imagine, he met ;/<G >3=>:3 /:=<5 B63 E/G G3B L<=B67<5 scary,â&#x20AC;? and while covering about 50-60 miles each day, he canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t recall a time he had to stop because of rain.

Three of the six features were green-to-checkers nailbiters, and the track was wide and racy all evening long.

Family allegiances were tested in the UMSS Traditional Sprints, featuring a 15lap duel for the checkers between Jimmy and Joseph Kouba. After picking up the win in the third heat race, Jimmy Kouba started the feature on the pole inside of second heat race winner Mike Mueller. The opening laps were frenzied and frantic with the 2k of Jimmy Kouba a half heartbeat in front of a gaggle of racers that included Mueller, Cam Schafer, Neal "/BCA9/ '=0 /6= @ 6/A3 +730@=19 Johnny Parsons III and Joseph Kouba.

During his trek through Three Rivers, Mich., the Three Rivers Commercial, a local daily newspaper, caught onto his story, and he was front-page news there on Oct. 9, 1961. He was 620 miles and 12 days into his journey at that point, and remembers many locals coming up to him, wishing him well the following day, as his story hit the local radio station.

Westigard said, adding that the small towns were pretty open to new visitors or someone was usually willing to offer him a place to sleep. It was also harvest time in many of the places he visited, so there were many roadside stands along what were then all two-lane highways, and heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d get apples, pears and other items as he rode along.

A few years later, Westigard bought a one-way ticket to Europe, giving up a good job in the States and embarking on a different course, riding bicycle through Europe, from London to Stockholm, by way of Belgium, the Netherlands, Germany and Denmark, to name a few.

Westigard said. The trip also led him to his wife, Marie-Anne, who accompanies him on hiking, backpacking, camping and skiing trips these days, as well as bicycling. And through it all, Westigard still hangs on to the Schwinn that started it all. He even has many of the original parts, including the old lights, generator and rack that hauled his 80 pounds of gear. With the exception of the luggage rack, he hopes to have everything on it B67A E3393<2 4=@ B63 P@AB /<<C/: +7<B/53 Solstice Ride.

Stanford breaks 5-year-old course record at Frederic Lions Bike Race Bibeau wins her second FREDERIC - Ian Stanford, Minneapolis, Minn., set a new course record at the 28th-annual Frederic Lions Bike Classic, riding the 26.4-mile course in 57 minutes, 40 seconds. The previous record of 58 minutes, 51 seconds was set in 2009 by Lance Niles.

Finishing second overall was six-time winner of the Frederic race, Tim Mulrooney, Minneapolis, Minn., with a time of 1 hour, 42 seconds, followed by Dan Logan, Osceola, at 1 hour, 4 minutes, 52 seconds.

Repeating her 2013 title of fastest woman, Michelle Bibeau, Pengilly, Minn., posted a time of 1 hour, 22 ;7<CB3A /<2 A31=<2A /1?C73 *<23; 67A/5= 7BG Minn., was the second woman overall in, with a time of 1 hour, 26 minutes, 40 seconds, keeping the pressure on Bibeau the entire race. In third place overall was Marva Sahs, Spooner, at 1 hour, 31 minutes and 10 seconds.

Also repeating her win from last year was singlespeed-class champion, Andrea Potyondy-Smith, Brooklyn Park, Minn., with a time of 1 hour, 29 minutes, 33 seconds. The single-speed class is limited to bikes with only one gear and that is extra challenging on a course like Frederic with 1,300 feet of climbing.

Dodds Family to host dairy breakfast on Saturday

For more than four decades, Win-De Acres has met the motto, L 3BB3@ D3@G .3/@M FREDERIC - John Dodds never lost sight of the goal 63 A3B 4=@ 67A 4/@; ;=@3 B6/< 4=C@ 231/23A /5= L 3BB3@ Every Year.â&#x20AC;?

In fact, he put it on a sign which welcomes visitors to Win-De Acres, the operation he established in 1970 which has grown in size and economically - not to mention in the number of family members who now help make the operation a success.

Today he works alongside his son, Ben, and some of Benâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s family, wife Angel and six children: Chase, 22, Hunter, 19, Scout, 10, Tracker, 9, Timber, 4, and Trigger, 2.

Chase works at Idle Gold Guernsey Farm, owned by Neil and Janice Jensen of Comstock, and Hunter is a U.S. Marine, stationed in Hawaii.

This Saturday, June 20, John, Ben, Angel and crew will host an estimated thousand visitors as part of the 30thannual Siren Ag Association Dairy Breakfast.

The event begins bright and early - at 6 a.m., and runs until noon, offering a menu that includes wild rice pancakes. There will also be live entertainment and a petting zoo.

And maybe a hint of birthday cake.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a far cry from the eight cows that John brought with him from Maple Grove, Minn., leaving the farm where he grew up, one of eight brothers and two sisters.

Besides Ben, John has two other sons, Matt, who lives in Georgia, and Walter, of Bemidji, Minn., and two daughters, Kerrie Erickson, of Frederic, and Jenny Colby, who lives in Sandstone, Minn.

Priscilla Bauer | Staff writer GRANTSBURG â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Delia Labatt and Audrey Lauer have every reason to be ex excited about their summer vacation.

The students also had to obtain letters of recommendation and complete a face-toface interview with the program director in Washington, D.C., via Skype on the computer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was kind of like a job interview for >6 P D2:5 #232EE H9@ 2=@?8 H:E9 #2F6C noted the whole process was very intense.

ooly Bear and Jasmine just turned 2 years old. Mama Bear was having a special birthday party for them. She gave Wooly Bear a new red bow tie to show he was old enough to go out on his @H?

Together they romped through the forest, running back and forth, playing and scampering.

Suddenly someone came down the path. Now, they had seen him before. â&#x20AC;&#x153;That is Mr. Steve who lives in the big gray house behind the cemetery.

Bellies full, they continued to explore the trails Mr. Steve had made. Rounding the corner they saw the little cot cottage nestled back away from the big gray house. Sometimes they would hide in the woods with Mama Bear and watch couples who came to the bed and breakfast.

Jasmine said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember this place.

Before it was a state park, it was a Scout camp Few signs remain of camp at Straight Lake State Park Fred Brede | Special to the Leader LUCK - Before Camp Philips was established near Haugen, in the early 1950s, the Boy Scouts of northern Wisconsin had the Luck Scout Reservation. It was located just north of Hwy. 48, east of Luck, where the newest Wisconsin State Park was established, Straight Lake state park.

Today there is very little to remind the hikers along the Ice Age Trail that it at one time was a thriving Boy Scout camp, complete with several campsites, a swimming beach, showers, canoe base, two lakes and 1,100 acres of rolling hills and trees.

When the Scout troops arrived they would register, hand in their medical forms and head off to their campsite. A shower building provided a place to clean up after a hard day of hiking and exploring the forests. A trading post provided snacks, pop, candy bars and material for achievement patches and was a favorite hangout for many Scouts when they had free time. The quartermaster was stationed at the trading post where the boys could check out tarps, tents and tools for overnight campouts.

A living voice for his ancestors

Each of the campsites had two-man tents with cots, axes, saws, stove, cooking gear, tables, water cans, garbage cans and cleaning supplies. Reservations needed to be in early to reserve the sites that the boys liked the best. Some troops came back to the same site year after year.

There was one central campsite that was used for gatherings, skill demonstrations and instructions by the staff. If there was a storm, this was the central gathering point.

The waterfront was where a lot of time was spent under the summer sun, using the buddy system for safety with a qualiS65 DE277 @7 =:768F2C5D C@A65 :? 2C62 and check-in and in checkout boards with tags kept track of who was in the water or checked-out canoes. The camp wanted to >2<6 E96 3@JD D276 C6=2I65 2?5 4@?S56?E in the water and learn how to swim by the end of the week. There were contests at the end of the week where the boys could show off their skills and stunts they learned while having fun. Merit badges on swimming, rowing, lifesaving, motor boating, canoeing and sailing were taught. A one-mile swim was often the goal of many campers as the greatest achievement for the week.

The Luck Scout Reservation was the perfect location to learn about nature,

S65 :?DECF4E@CD In total, the camp employed 27 full-time employees over the summer months with a third over 21. It was a great pleasure being on the staff at a summer camp and many who read this article can remember their favorite times they spent at their camp as a crusader or a Scout. One of my most memorable times at camp came with the calling-out ceremonies of the Order of the Arrow, an honor for the Scout to be recognized by his fellow Scouts for eldership and skills.

The Luck Scout Reservation also provided a family camping area where the families of scoutmasters could spend the week in their own tents or campers. Toilets and water were nearby and the waterfront was open for their use. Families could either bring their own food or eat at the dining hall, $9 a week for adults or $5 for children.

Long-range plans for Straight Lake State Park are to develop the camping area again and a ranger station staffed in the summer months. If you would like more information on the park, the ranger is stationed out of Wisconsin Interstate Park in St. Croix Falls and can be reached by calling the park at 715-431-0724.
