Keeping their cool in the kitchen *UDQWVEXUJ VWXGHQWV FRPSHWH LQ 0DGLVRQ WR ZLQ 7RS 6WXGHQW &KHI WLWOH Priscilla Bauer | Staff writer GRANTSBURG â&#x20AC;&#x201C; When friends Casey Burkhardt, Carolina Lowenstein, Noah Rachbauer and Richard Johnson were grouped together in their high school Introduction to Foods Class, little did they know where they would end up cooking together.

Instructor Michelle Taylorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lessons on recipe development and nutrition analysis became prep work for eligibility to compete in the second-annual Whipping Up Wellness, Department of Public Instruction Wisconsin Student Chef Competition.

According to Taylor, her students worked to develop nutritious, studentfriendly recipes that included local foods and could easily be incorporated into the school food service program and used at home.

Taylorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s class of 13 teams competed against one another for the opportunity to send their recipes to Madison.

Burkhardt, Lowenstein, Rachbauer and Johnson, the Purple Pirates, were not chosen team one, nor team two. They werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t team three and didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make team four either. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We almost didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t make the cut,â&#x20AC;? laughed Lowenstein. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We were almost eliminated.

eter and I drove across the country accompanied by a buzz.

Peter is a very competent traveler. He brings with him a supply of healthy food, includCarrie Classon ing broccoli, and a carefully planned itinerary. For this trip, Peter also brought a brand-new rooftop car carrier to hold his bicycling gear and leave room in the backseat for Milo - Milo occupies most of the backseat.

Peter left plenty of time to get the carrier on the roof, he cooked broccoli, he carefully packed all his gear.

What he did not do was drive his car with the new carrier over 45 miles per hour.

We hit the road; Milo was stretched out in the backseat, provisions safely stowed. We merged onto the highway and we got up to speed.

Buzzzzz! the carrier said â&#x20AC;&#x201C; very loudly.

Milo sat up in alarm. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is that?â&#x20AC;? Peter almost shouted over the noise. We stopped at the next gas station. Nothing appeared to be amiss. Peter tightened things and rearranged things. We started up again.

Buzzzzz! said the carrier â&#x20AC;&#x201C; a bit louder, if possible.

Peter tried tape and padding and rearrangement of the luggage inside, but all he was able to accomplish was to alter and amplify the occasionally deafening sound of the carrierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s persistent vibration. While his mood remained sunny, Peter was clearly distracted by this musical accompaniment.

Peter added a strap to the carrier. This did nothing whatsoever to lessen the vibration, which tended to a middle-frequency buzz, but it did add a new, lowfrequency hum.

Buzzzzz! was now accompanied by a deep Burrrrr!

St. Croix Casinos Tillieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Annual Food Drive set for June 1-7 BURNETT/POLK COUNTIES â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Food pantries in northwestern Wisconsin will receive needed help early this summer, thanks to an ongoing program of the St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin.

Limit one donation per guest per casino per day. No government-issued food items will be accepted. A valid players club card and a valid ID are required.

This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s food drive differs from those of the past 21 years in a couple of important ways. First of all, the name for the drive has changed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ever since the casinos Ă&#x20AC;UVW EHJDQ KRVWLQJ LW LQ RXU DQQXDO IRRG GULYH KDV been called Coins for Cans,â&#x20AC;? said St. Croix Casinos marketing director Jamie Buck. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We changed the name to

which, I noted to Peter, created a more complex musical experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Perhaps what we really need is a treble line,â&#x20AC;? I suggested. I hummed a soprano line in harmony with the two vibrations.

Peter was not enthusiastic.

The most vexing part of the musical experience was that it actually did stop from time to time, sometimes for several hours at a stretch. During these times, Peter would congratulate himself on solving the problem and relax. Then â&#x20AC;&#x201C; without any obvious change in the wind or car direction â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the buzz would resume.

And so we drove, buzzing down the road. I watched mountains turn to desert, desert turn to prairies and prairies turn to forests. We drove west and then north and the land grew wetter and greener. We ate broccoli out of a zipper bag and we listened to the buzz. And, after a while, I didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t care about the buzz. ,¡P QRW VD\LQJ LW VKRXOGQ¡W JHW Ă&#x20AC;[HG DQG ,¡P VXUH 3HWHU ZLOO HYHQWXDOO\ Ă&#x20AC;[ LW RU KH ZLOO ZULWH D FRPplaint letter so scathing that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll get a replacement.

But, for the duration of this trip, I decided that the buzz was part of the experience. There was nothing I could change except how I felt, so I imagined I was traveling with a large hive of friendly bees over my head. The bees might sleep for a bit, but they would reawaken â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and that was a good thing because it meant they were still there, still taking this journey with me.

Peter tried a bit more tape, he moved the packs to a different location, he added a sleeping bag to the front, and we started the car again.

Buzzzzz!

All was right with the world.

t was just another camping trip with friends. A gathering, a return to nature, to get a taste of what life was like in the Wyoming forests and plains before Napoleon Bonaparte sold it to Thomas Jefferson in 1803. The transaction should have been called the Cheyenne Purchase except the Indian tribes never got a dime. I guess if the purchase occurred today, President Obama would be forced to buy Wyoming from the Powder River Coal Company.

But, back to our campers, Roy and 5HJLQD KDG PRYHG LQWR WKH Ă&#x20AC;UVW FODVV seats of camping. Like their friends, they brought Tabasco sauce to season, Tbones to grill, potato chips to munch on, sausage, eggs and libations of all kinds and heavy-duty lawn chairs.

Consider the tips below for preventing and caring for tick bites.

3UHYHQWLRQ LV WKH EHVW PHGLFLQH 1. Know which insect repellents work and donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t work against ticks.

We have learned a lot about preventing tick bites over the last several years. Unfortunately, insect repellents containing DEET are largely ineffective against deer ticks, although they work great against mosquitoes. The best repellents have permethrin in themâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a chemical that was originally extracted IURP FKU\VDQWKHPXP Ă RZHUV DQG LV IDLUO\ VDIH 7KHVH FDQ EH found at some local hardware stores and Wal-Marts.

While small amounts on the skin are generally harmless, repellents containing permethrin should be applied to clothing rather than directly on your skin. While these repellents are a bit more expensive than ones with DEET, they have the DGGHG EHQHĂ&#x20AC;W RI QRW KDYLQJ WR EH UHDSSOLHG RIWHQ EHFDXVH WKH UHSHOOHQW ZLOO UHPDLQ RQ FORWKHV IRU DSSUR[LPDWHO\ Ă&#x20AC;YH WR six washings.

However, there are several brands of tick treatments which are applied to the skin and will kill ticks on your pets for about a month. These are available through your veterinarian.

3. If your home has many ticks around it, you can reduce the tick population in the area.

Performed in the springtime, the most effective technique to reduce the tick population around your home uses the same permethrin repellents mentioned above. Simply soak cotton balls in the repellent and allow them to dry. Then, place the cotton balls under covered dry areas around the SHULPHWHU RI \RXU \DUG ZKHUH PLFH ZLOO Ă&#x20AC;QG WKHP 7KH PLFH will take the cotton back to their nests where the ticks will be killed (as mice are the preferred food for the small tick nymphs).

4. Cover your skin when working or playing in grassy or wooded areas.

A good preventive measure against ticks is to dress appropriately to limit contact between them and your skin. Wear a hat, a long-sleeved shirt and long pants with the legs tucked into your socks. Also keep in mind that it is easier to spot ticks on light-colored clothes. ,I ELWWHQ SURSHU FDUH LV NH\ 5. If you are bitten by a tick, there are many different ways to remove them.

NJ Honor Society at Webster holds fundraiser for fellow student WEBSTERâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;On May 21, Webster Middle School students jumped into Devils Lake to raise money for a classmate that got burned maple syruping. The schoolâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s National Junior Honor Society ran the fundraiser, Splash for Cash, by getting teachers to agree to jump into the lake if they raised the most money and having students collect donations, promising to jump in themselves. At school, students dropped money into the buckets with the teachers pictures on them to decide which â&#x20AC;&#x153;winnersâ&#x20AC;? would jump in.

Webster teachers Steve Holmquist, Laura Byl and Principal Diana Lesneski were the â&#x20AC;&#x153;winnersâ&#x20AC;? of the contest but other staff members couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t resist and showed up for the cool dunk in the water. National Junior Honor Society students are very thankful

Discovering the â&#x20AC;&#x153;wowâ&#x20AC;?

Seth Kaltwasser As director of arts education at St. Croix Festival Theatre, I get front row seats to the daily discoveries and innovations of our valleyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s young artists. This month has been all about gearing up for a summer full of arts education programs, and I hope youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll mark your calendars and take the opportunity to get involved â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as a participant, volunteer or cheerleader and audience member.

Each time I see one of Festival Theatreâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s youth actors craft a new character for one of our Youth & Family Series Productions or hear a young Creativity Camper describe their process in choosing just the right colors for the newest painting, I am reminded that arts-making experiences should not be considered simply extracurricular â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but essential.

I have no doubt that artsmaking opportunities, such as those offered through Festival Theatre, help equip young people to meet the challenges of our ever-changing world.

For this reason, our team at Festival Theatre is constantly working to provide many opportunities for children of all ages at little or no cost to families, and our busy summer programming schedule is full of opportunities to get involved.

This summer, we will be taking our guest teaching artists on a tour of the valley for our 2014 Creativity Camp series.

Creativity Camp is an environmentally themed traveling multiarts day camp and will be held for two weeks at St. Croix Falls Elementary School, July 7-11 and Aug. 11-15, one week at the Clear Lake Community Center, July 21-25, and one week at Luck Elementary School, July 28 â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Aug. 1.

This production will be a result of our fourth-annual Festival Theatre Conservatory for Young Performers. The Conservatory is an opportunity for older youth, ages 13-18, to receive a more comprehensive actor training experience; over the course of the four-week rehearsal process, youth actors will participate in a series of workshops led by our summer teaching artists, where they will receive training on vocal technique, movement, and tips on tackling Aristophanesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; classic language. ´7KH )URJVÂľ RSHQV RQ -XO\ DQG UXQV through July 31.

River Folk Music Festival expands the current offerings using the medium of PXVLF ² VSHFLĂ&#x20AC;FDOO\ IRON PXVLF Going back to its fur trade roots, music has helped shape the Forts Folle Avoine story in many ways. Voyageurs sang tunes appropriate to the rhythms needed to paddle canoes and for their own entertainment. Settlers arriving from northern Europe brought with them their own varieties of music. These often blended with native rhythms to produce new variations on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s music,â&#x20AC;? what we now call â&#x20AC;&#x153;folk music.â&#x20AC;? But beyond the historical connections to this historic site, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just good music!

Two stages will be in use for nonstop music throughout the day. Bring your

own lawn chair or blanket to sit on. Purchase a beverage, meal, or snack as you wander the grounds, listen to the music, or sit along the river to enjoy a meal.

The human element of the Heritage Initiative

Behind the scenes

Editorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s note: This is the third in a fourpart series about the proposed North Woods and Waters of the St. Croix National Heritage Area. Part one of this series introduced DQG GHĂ&#x20AC;QHG ZKDW LV PHDQW E\ 1DWLRQDO +HULtage Area status.

Danette Olsen | Special to the Leader NORTHWESTERN WISCONSIN â&#x20AC;&#x201C; The story of what became the Heritage Initiative Task Force pays tribute to one of Margaret Meadeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most famous quotes, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the only thing that ever has.â&#x20AC;?

By the time the diverse citizen task force was seated in January of 2010, several months had already been invested in preliminary conversation about whether or not National Heritage Area status would be a good idea for the St. Croix Valley. ,Q WKH VXPPHU RI D VPDOO FRDOLWLRQ of individuals representing community development, tourism, natural resources and history had the opportunity to meet ZLWK WKH UHJLRQDO RIĂ&#x20AC;FH RI WKH 1DWLRQDO Park Service. Among them were Marty Harding of the St. Croix Valley Foundation, John Velin of the St. Croix River Association, Bill Neuman of the St. Croix Scenic Coalition and the St. Croix Scenic Byway. Also present were two people who had actually experienced working and living near a National Heritage Area, Chris Stein, superintendent of the St. Croix National Scenic Riverway, and Julie Galonska, who is the chief of interpretation, education, and cultural resource management at the Riverway.

Clearly inspired, the St. Croix Valley Foundation decided to convene a large cross section of regional stakeholders, primarily from the lower St. Croix River area, to learn about the National Heritage Area program. When those present were asked if they thought it was a good idea to explore the NHA concept, the room was Ă&#x20AC;OOHG ZLWK LQWHUHVW ² DQG VNHSWLFLVP â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was such a powerful proposition,â&#x20AC;? said Velin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yet, it also had the feeling of an idea just too darned big to get a handle on what it would mean to our region to pursue designation. Honestly, I was among the early skeptics.â&#x20AC;?

Skepticism turned into a massive research project and, over the course of the next eight months, the task force â&#x20AC;&#x201C; with technical assistance from Jean SchaeppiAnderson of the National Park Service and SCVF staff assistance by Jill Shannon, then director of community partnerships â&#x20AC;&#x201C; began the work of understanding exactly what was required to become a 1DWLRQDO +HULWDJH $UHD ZKDW WKH EHQHĂ&#x20AC;WV would be and what challenges would be faced.

After all, some heritage areas took about 10 years to complete their feasibility studies and management plans.â&#x20AC;?

Some members of the task force visited NHA sites, like Silos and Smokestacks in Iowa and the Essex National Heritage Area in Massachusetts. As time went on, skepticism gave way to increased curiosity and a palpable sense of possibility. When it was understood that completing a feasibility study would also require actually selecting a physical boundary as a preliminary step in the process, the task force was galvanized with a sense of purpose. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As we grappled with the fact that in a formal feasibility study we would be looking deeply at our regional stories of SRWHQWLDO QDWLRQDO VLJQLĂ&#x20AC;FDQFH ZH NQHZ that the logging story was just one excellent example of such a story,â&#x20AC;? said Marty Harding, who chairs the task force. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was Sam Griffith, city administrator, Sandstone, Minn., who so eloquently reminded us that we would not be able to tell the story of the lumber barons, sawmills and rising wealth of cities downriver without telling the story of the lumber FDPSV FXWRYHU DQG WKH +LQFNOH\ Ă&#x20AC;UH 7KH interdependence and interlocking stories of the watershed have been part of the entire human experience in the St. Croix Valley.â&#x20AC;?

In the months to come, the task force provided leadership, deliberation, management and implementation support.

Along the way, outside consultants were hired to provide invaluable assistance. Nancy Morgan of Point Heritage Development Consulting has overseen strategic direction to keep the feasibility study on course and meet the Department of Interior requirements. Until November 2013, Jill Shannon provided staff-side leadership in managing the project within the community partnership framework

of SCVF. Jonathan Moore of the National Park Service has provided a great deal of technical assistance in his role as the Riverwayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s partnerships and volunteers coordinator. Tom Borrup, Pete Musty and their team at Creative Community Builders provided leadership in designing the Heritage Discovery Workshops and regional gatherings. Greg Seitz and Kay Lambert have provided invaluable consulting services in media, marketing and branding leadership. Local artist Chelsea Kelly assisted with community engagement on behalf of SCVF. Late in 2013, a coordinating entity, Northwest Regional Planning Commission, was named to serve the Heritage Initiative effort and three additional members joined the team: Myron Schuster, Sheldon Johnson and Jason Laumann.

Additional past and present members of the Heritage Initiative Task Force not listed above include: Alyssa Auten for the Folsom House, Kathy Bartilson for the Wisconsin DNR, Jane Hetland Stevenson of the St. Croix Valley Foundation, Danette Olsen for ArtReach St. Croix, Scott Peterson for Friends of the St. Croix Headwaters, Tangi Schaapveld for the Chisago Lakes Area Chamber of Commerce, Patricia Shifferd for the St. Croix River Association and Margaret Smith for Freedom Park.

The feasibility study is available at stcroixheritage.org/feasibility-study or at local libraries around the region.

SHUVSHFWLYHV Sally Bair

Big black bears This Bair has met black bears on three separate occasions during my hikes. One of them, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure, was as long as the wide trail I walked. One stood by a tree on the side of the same trail, and the third lay resting in a roadside ditch, undetected until I found myself looking straight into its eyes. I have a healthy fear of larger-

than-me mammals, so in each case I slowly retreated until I was out of their sight, then hightailed it for home.

I sometimes see tree stumps that look like bears, too. They look safe but probably are not. Conversely, stumps that I believe are bears really are harmless, but I fear them anyway.

The noun, bear, means more than the DQLPDO ,W DOVR PHDQV VRPHWKLQJ GLIĂ&#x20AC;FXOW to deal with. We all face those kinds of bears. Some of them we could call baby bears â&#x20AC;&#x201C; like when we discover weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out of eggs and must change our dinner plans. Other bears may be mama-sized, OLNH KDYLQJ D Ă DW WLUH RQ D EXV\ KLJKZD\ And, of course, there are the big black bears â&#x20AC;&#x201C; learning a loved one has cancer, for instance.

Summer sports driving father and son apart Q: How should I deal with the tension between my son and his dad over his participation in sports? Summer leagues are starting up again, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m GUHDGLQJ WKH LQHYLWDEOH Ă&#x20AC;JKWV EHWZHHQ them. Our son is an excellent athlete, but heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s never enjoyed playing, because of the pressure he gets to perform. What do you suggest?

Jim: As someone who grew up enjoyLQJ DQG EHQHĂ&#x20AC;WLQJ IURP VSRUWV , FDQ understand your husbandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eagerness to pass some of the same positive experiences on to your son. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to encourage children to pursue excellence and develop self-discipline, and with some kids sports can be an excellent vehicle for teaching these values.

Even more critical, though, is for the parent-child relationship to be based on unconditional love and acceptance.

Kids desperately need Mom and Dad to EH WKHLU ELJJHVW FKHHUOHDGHUV DIĂ&#x20AC;UPLQJ them when they succeed and encouraging them when they fail.

If we as dads, or moms, are overly competitive, we can often make the mistake of basing worth on achievement DQG DIĂ&#x20AC;UPLQJ RXU NLGV RQO\ ZKHQ WKH\

succeed. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a bad move. It may negatively impact our childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s self-esteem for the rest of his or her life. It will also place an unnecessary strain on the parentchild relationship, preparing the way for major explosions when they reach the teen years. ,I \RXU KXVEDQG KDV GLIĂ&#x20AC;FXOW\ SDUenting this way, you may want to get a copy of Dr. Tim Kimmelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s insightful book â&#x20AC;&#x153;Grace-Based Parentingâ&#x20AC;? (Thomas Nelson, 2005) and study it together. Then spend some time discussing the changes that one or both of you may need to make in your interactions with your son.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d also invite you to give our licensed counselors a call at 855-771-HELP (4357). â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘â&#x20AC;˘ Q: My daughter is married to a good man, but she can be very unkind and disrespectful to him. I want to talk with her about this, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best. It embarrasses me when sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like this. What should I do?

Dr. Greg Smalley, vice president, Fam-

Regardless of size, any bear, any problem, offers us three choices: confront, go around or turn away. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always have the time or opportunity to carefully consider our choices, either. Sometimes ZH KDYH WR Ă HH IURP VXGGHQ GDQJHU God offers us helpful wisdom in our choices when it comes to temptations or just plain living. Many verses in the Psalms and Proverbs, for instance, speak of the value of gaining Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wisdom, said to be worth more than gold, silver or rubies. Wisdom brings knowledge of God. It also offers victory, protection and safety, among other valuables. It is supreme and the Bible says we should seek it at all times.

The most wonderful thing about using Godâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wisdom â&#x20AC;&#x201C; as opposed to the wis-

dom of man â&#x20AC;&#x201C; is that it can help us make the right choices in any situation, no matter what kind of bears we face. All we need is trust that he will give us the wisdom we need, when we ask. â&#x20AC;&#x153;And my God will supply all your needs according to his glorious riches in &KULVW -HVXV Âľ 3KLOLSSLDQV

Lord, give us the wisdom to determine not only the size and seriousness of what we face today, but also the wisdom to know when to confront, when to go around and when to WXUQ DZD\ :H WKDQN \RX IRU \RXU LQĂ&#x20AC;QLWH wisdom and your willingness to impart it to us. Amen.

ily Ministries: Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re wise to tread lightly here. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to not shy away from confronting destructive behavior, but in every scenario it should be approached with prayer, honesty and humility. If not, it can result in further harm instead of healing. The pitfalls in your case could be the alienation of your daughter or an unintended wedge being driven in their relationship if your daughter thinks youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re taking sides. Your actions could also have the effect of â&#x20AC;&#x153;neuteringâ&#x20AC;? your son-in-law in the eyes of his wife if she WKLQNV ´0RWKHUÂľ KDV WR Ă&#x20AC;JKW KLV EDWWOHV Honestly assessing your motives will help you avoid these undesirable outcomes.
