Embracing winter on the Chain Cold-weather activities abound in the area

Happy 125th, Antioch JUDE KAIDER Hi-Liter

Antioch Parks and Recreation Director Shawn Roby (front, left) and Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Barbara Porch (right) display the first banner celebrating the 125th anniversary of the Antioch’s incorporation during a meeting of the anniversary committee at the Meeting House on Jan 10. The village, local businesses, and civic groups are planning festivities to take place during 2017 in observance of the Feb. 29, 1892, incorporation and banners similar to the one pictured will soon be hanging throughout the village. Originally known as “Gages settlement,” Antioch received its name in an 1851 vote. Villagers chose the name “Antioch” over the competing name of “Winsor” by a margin of 85-60, according to historical accounts. Antioch was originally incorporated a few years later in the late 1850s. However, by the mid-1860s residents grew tired of bureaucratic responsibilities. Another election was held to unincorporate the young town, which was its status until leap year day of 1892. A term that might be heard this year is quasquicentennial, which is an alternate way to describe the 125th observance of an event.

Winter is not a season when people usually think about going to the lake. Lake recreation is often reserved for the hot days of summer. The lake, however, can also be an exciting place to enjoy the winter days. That’s especially true on the Chain O’ Lakes. For the fisherman, winter does not mean the end of enjoying that sport. The Chain O’ Lakes has a reputation as one of the most popular ice fishing areas in the Midwest. On a cold day after the lake has frozen, ice fishing shelters will be seen dotting the frozen surface of the lakes. According to Ken Buchardt, vice president of the Fox Lake-Grant Township Area Historic Society, “The best choice of bait for ice fishing includes maggots, wax worms, and minnows.” He went on to explain that in winter the fish move more slowly so you don’t need very active and wiggly bait. A variety of fish including panfish, crappies, striped bass, walleye, muskies and even catfish can be caught on the Chain. Ice fishing requires some preparation including the usual pole, hook and bait. In addition an auger to cut a hole in the ice, warm clothing and ice fishing shelter to help keep warm are a must. A visit to one of the local bait stores for information is a great place for beginners to start.

No charges filed against couple who left area

Taking kids out of state violated agreement By Vicky Wedig STAFF WRITER

Happy 125th, Antioch JUDE KAIDER Hi-Liter

269850

As of late last week, police had no probable cause to arrest a Genoa City, Wis., woman and her boyfriend from McHenry, who left the area with the woman’s kids. Genoa City police enlisted the public’s help in finding Katie Brick, Jenna Brick 8, and Jenna Brick, 6, on Jan. 10 after their mother, Tiffany Brick, 28, left their Sumner Court home with the girls against a civil agreement. Brick and the girls were found less than 24 hours Katie Brick later in Kansas with Brick’s boyfriend, Scott Hogel, 51, of McHenry. Genoa City Police Chief Joseph Balog said Friday the department was still investigating the matter but had Tiffany Brick no probable cause for criminal charges against Brick or Hogel.

Area man charged in fatal Russian roulette shooting By Tracy Ouellette and Vicky Wedig STAFF WRITERS

A McHenry man and an East Troy, Wis., man are charged with reckless homicide in a Jan. 2 shooting that left a man dead in East Troy. Robert M. Sterling, 31, of McHenry, and Tyler M. Odell, 22, of East Troy, are charged with first-degree reckless homicide in the shooting death of David A. Bauspies. Sterling also is charged with homicide by negligent handling of a dangerous weapon. If convicted of both counts, Sterling could be imprisoned for up to 70 years

and fined $25,000. He is scheduled to appear in court Monday for a preliminary hearing. Odell is Robert scheduled Sterling for a motion hearing Jan. 27. According to the criminal complaint, Village of East Troy police responded to reports of shots being fired at an Emery Court apartment around 12:30 p.m. Jan. 2. When the first officer arrived at the apartment, he

said he saw Sterling “kneeling over a deceased male victim,” who had been shot in the face, according to the complaint. The officer reported there was a “revolver laying on the floor near the victim.” Another village police officer who responded to the call found Odell, who lives in the apartment, outside of the residence, according to the complaint. In an interview with police, Odell said Bauspies and Sterling were with him in his apartment and Odell “decided to show everyone his gun,” the complaint states. Odell said Bauspies and Ster-

ling had “both been drinking a lot of beer and were ‘pretty drunk’” when Odell took out a .44 Magnum revolver that Odell owns. Odell told police, another man, Richard D. Pryor, arrived at the apartment while Odell was showing off the gun. According to the complaint, Odell told police he removed the six rounds in the gun and showed it to everyone. Then Odell told police he put one round back in the gun and spun the cylinder and that Sterling saw him do this. Odell told police he held the gun up to his own head but did not pull the trigger.

According to the compliant, Odell then handed the gun to Sterling. Sterling “spun the cylinder” and held the gun up to his own head and “pulled the trigger,” the complaint states. The gun did not go off, Odell told police. According to the complaint, Odell told police Sterling then pointed the gun at Bauspies and “pulled the trigger, causing the gun to fire.” Odell told police after Bauspies was shot, Odell and Pryor left the apartment and went to a friend’s house. According to the complaint, Odell later came back to the area of the apartment where he was arrested.

The complaint states Sterling was interviewed by police and told them he had been drinking alcohol on Jan. 1 and 2 and he was at the apartment when Odell brought out the gun to show everyone. Sterling told police Odell removed the gun from a case and the group at the apartment began playing Russian roulette. Sterling said everyone present handled the gun, according to the complaint. Sterling told police Odell had handed him the gun and that he was holding the gun by his knee when the gun went off and Bauspies was shot.

Young Marine at 75th Pearl Harbor anniversary in Hawaii By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

Ben Randolph is a fifth-grader at Riverview School who lives in Silver Lake, Wis., with his family consisting of parents Doug and Ginger and older brother, Christian, a seventh-grader. Ben, who is also a Young Marine, had the honor of attending the 75th anniversary commemoration of Pearl Harbor Day in Hawaii last month. “I became interested in the Young Marines because a family friend’s son, Kurt Wagner, had been in it until he was 18,” Ben said. Kurt is the son of Chris and Phil Lass. Ben was among 18 Young Marines along with seven adults from his Southeastern Wisconsin who attended. Members are comprised of people coming from Milwaukee, southward to Northern Illinois. All of the students worked to raise $2,000 so they could attend. “We spent about six months raising funds,” Ben said. “We got up early on weekend mornings when it was still dark out.” “It was the first time I was excited for Monday,” he quipped. “I felt as if I were sleeping in.” Local businesses donated money to the cause, includ-

ing Buss Ford in McHenry, Ill., Lynch Chevrolet in Burlington and Merlin in Kenosha. Close to home, Harm’s at Silver Lake Auto, The Boat Doc and People’s Bank also contributed to the cause. Ben also sold sausage sticks to raise funds. Long voyage It was a long trip to Hawaii, with a four-hour flight to Los Angeles, a five-hour layover, followed by another five-hour flight to Hawaii. “I wanted to honor those who had fallen and those who survived,” Ben said. While he was there on his seven-day visit, Ben saw the Arizona Memorial, heard the oldest living survivor speak, and walked up the stairs to the top of the Punchbowl National Cemetery. “It was sad, seeing all the grave markers,” Ben said. The trip home, scheduled when there was a snowstorm in Wisconsin, sidetracked Ben and his group in Los Angeles for a 1-1/2 days. “We had a bus tour of Hollywood and saw the sidewalk with the stars on it and visited Venice Beach,” he remembered. Ben plans to head to college following high school, and then hopes to become an officer for the United States

Marine Corps. Young Marines in operation The Young Marines is a group open to boys and girls from 8 years old through high school graduation. Ben meets with his Young Marine Unit every Wednesday at the Oak Creek Community Center, and when weather permits, in the park. Weekly activities include marching drills along with physical and navigational training. Navigation training involves the use of maps and a compass. Ben has also participated in the Appleseed project and marksmanship training. Gun safety is taught at the Racine Rifle Club, where they received two days of training one weekend last summer. Community service, with an emphasis on helping veterans, is also part of the program. Last year, Ben helped retired Marine veteran James Hunter, of Bartlett, Ill. with fencing repairs at his home. Local education is included, with an opportunity for Ben to help teachers at Riverview in cleaning up classSUBMITTED PHOTO Hi-Liter rooms and store items, which Young Marine Ben Randolph hangs his Pearl Harbor Memorial Christmas tree orwas done at the end of last nament at home. Randolph visited Hawaii with his Young Marine unit to commemoyear. rate the 75th anniversary of Pearl Harbor Day, and pay tribute to the fallen of that day.

The Young Marines strengthens the lives of America’s youth by teaching the importance of self-confidence, academic achievement, honoring our veterans, good citizenship, community service, and living a healthy, drug-free lifestyle, according to the Young Marines website. The Young Marines promotes the mental, moral, and physical development of its members, focusing on character building and leadership and promoting a lifestyle conducive to being productive members of society. The organization is open to all boys and girls, ages eight through completion of high school. The only membership requirement is that the youth must be in good standing at school. The Young Marines, which began as one full unit of boys in 1959, has since grown to many units throughout the United States and outlying areas. More than 280 Young Marines members from 15 states went to Hawaii to participate in the 75th anniversary Pearl Harbor Day Commemoration, held last month. They performed a wreath laying ceremony at the National Cemetery of the Pacific in memory of all the men and women interred there. Over 30 Young Marines Units attended the Memorial. On December 7, they led the Pearl Harbor Memorial Parade in Honolulu and carried the banners of the 12 capital ships that were attacked. The parade honored the survivors of Pearl Harbor and World War II and paid tribute to veterans, active duty military members and military families and to celebrate freedom. Young Marines used their creativity and applied the program’s core values - leadership, teamwork and discipline - to implement unique and effective fundraising efforts that were done to help fund the trip.

Commission disqualifies prospective candidate His residency was challenged

By Gail Peckler-Dziki CORRESPONDENT

Prospective Antioch Board of Trustees candidate Joseph Dorjath has been left off the ballot for the spring election after his candidacy was challenged over a question of residency. Dorjath filed a petition to run for a trustee seat last month and Mary Peterson challenged his petition. Mayor Larry Hanson, at-

torney Daniel Venturi and Clerk Lori K. Romine considered the challenge as the local election commission. The candidate did not appear at the hearing, which was held on Dec 30. According to the order of the commission, Peterson’s objection was sustained as the commission ruled that while Dorjath claimed his address to be 1260 Parkview Drive, he did not reside in the Village of

The commission also found his petition to be defective because the certifying statement was not attached, the pages signed before a Wisconsin notary are invalid, the petition was not stapled or otherwise securely fastened, the petition was not consecutively numbered and the valid signatures, if any, were inadequate in number.

Boating on ice In the 1900s, ice boating was a popular winter activity. While some ice boats are still seen on the lakes in winter, there are not nearly as many as there were decades ago. Ice boat races would be held by local clubs and the boats would fly across the ice if there was a strong wind. “The boats (are) capable of going up to five times the speed of the wind,” said Buchardt, who is an ice boat enthusiast. Ice boats come in various sizes and some required a crew of 3 to sail. What is an ice boat? The simple answer is that it is like a sailboat with skis or runners attached, much like ice skates, to sail across the ice. For many, winter brings back memories of ice skating. As children the dreams of becoming a figure skater, a speed skater, or a hockey player were often dashed by the harsh realities of ice. Although most children will skate only a few times each winter the memories will linger on. For those who really wish to pursue serious ice skating, there are indoor rinks to continue to pursue their dreams, but there is nothing more invigorating than ice skating outside. After skating with

family or friends it is time to relax and warm up in front of a fire with a mug of hot chocolate. Sledding hills Passing a children’s sledding hill, the happy sounds of children shrieking with delight as they swoosh down the hill can be heard. Sledding is a family activity that remains a childhood favorite for many. A small hill is sufficient for younger children as they enjoy sliding down on their sleds or being pulled by an adult. For the older, and more adventurous members of the family, how about a toboggan run? Steitz’s Resort on Bluff Lake boasts of the oldest registered toboggan slide in Illinois, which has been in operation since 1940. When Bluff Lake freezes, it is time to enjoy the fast and furious ride down the slide and onto the frozen lake. Most winter activities end best with some hot chocolate or, for the adults, some hot buttered rum served in the restaurant upon the completion of a day on the toboggan run. Snowshoeing can be traced back 6,000 years to central Asia. These people who were the ancestors of Native Americans migrated to North

America on foot. Using snowshoes allowed them to travel across the snow-covered terrain at a more efficient pace. Today many people enjoy snowshoeing as a recreational activity. Equipped with snowshoes and two poles to help guide them along, snowshoe users travel over the snow rather than sinking into it. In Wisconsin there are several snowshoe races offered. While it is important to dress warmly, it is recommended that one dress in layers as the high intensity of work while snowshoeing tends to generate heat. And even for those who are looking for a little less exertion, snowshoes allow access to often unnoticed winter scenery. Winter does not have to be a dreary in-the-house time of year. Taking the family outside away from the electronic gadgets that seem to be permanently attached to many and enjoying an afternoon of building a snowman or an ice house, making snow angels have the ingredients of a memorable day. The Chain O’ Lakes area offers ample opportunity for residents to embrace winter and those special activities that can only be enjoyed in a Midwest winter.

Embracing winter on the Chain O’ Lakes Winter activities abound in the area

By Sandra Landen Machaj CORRESPONDENT

A variety of fish including panfish, crappies, striped bass, walleye, muskies and even catfish can be caught on the Chain. Ice fishing requires some preparation including the usual pole, hook and bait. In addition an auger to cut a hole in the ice, warm clothing and ice fishing shelter to help keep warm are a must. A visit to one of the local bait stores for information is a great place for beginners to start. Boating on ice In the 1900s, ice boating was a popular winter activity. While some ice boats are still seen on the lakes in winter, there are not nearly as many as there were decades ago. Ice boat races would be held by local clubs and the boats would fly across the ice if there was a strong wind. “The boats (are) capable of going up to five times the speed of the wind,” said Buchardt, who is an ice boat enthusiast. Ice boats come in various sizes and some required a crew of 3 to sail. What is an ice boat? The simple answer is that it is

like a sailboat with skis or runners attached, much like ice skates, to sail across the ice. For many, winter brings back memories of ice skating. As children the dreams of becoming a figure skater, a speed skater, or a hockey player were often dashed by the harsh realities of ice. Although most children will skate only a few times each winter the memories will linger on. For those who really wish to pursue serious ice skating, there are indoor rinks to continue to pursue their dreams, but there is nothing more invigorating than ice skating outside. After skating with family or friends it is time to relax and warm up in front of a fire with a mug of hot chocolate. Sledding hills Passing a children’s sledding hill, the happy sounds of children shrieking with delight as they swoosh down the hill can be heard. Sledding is a family activity that remains a childhood favorite for many. A small hill is sufficient for younger

back 6,000 years to central Asia. These people who were the ancestors of Native Americans migrated to North America on foot. Using snowshoes allowed them to travel across the snow-covered terrain at a more efficient pace. Today many people enjoy snowshoeing as a recreational activity. Equipped with snowshoes and two poles to help guide them along, snowshoe users travel over the snow rather than sinking into it. In Wisconsin there are several snowshoe races offered. While it is important to dress warmly, it is recommended that one dress in layers as the high intensity of work while snow-

shoeing tends to generate heat. And even for those who are looking for a little less exertion, snowshoes allow access to often unnoticed winter scenery. Winter does not have to be a dreary in-the-house time of year. Taking the family outside away from the electronic gadgets that seem to be permanently attached to many and enjoying an afternoon of building a snowman or an ice house, making snow angels have the ingredients of a memorable day. The Chain O’ Lakes area offers ample opportunity for residents to embrace winter and those special activities that can only be enjoyed in a Midwest winter.

children as they enjoy sliding down on their sleds or being pulled by an adult. For the older, and more adventurous members of the family, how about a toboggan run? Steitz’s Resort on Bluff Lake boasts of the oldest registered toboggan slide in Illinois, which has been in operation since 1940. When Bluff Lake freezes, it is time to enjoy the fast and furious ride down the slide and onto the frozen lake. Most winter activities end best with some hot chocolate or, for the adults, some hot buttered rum served in the restaurant upon the completion of a day on the toboggan run. Snowshoeing can be traced

Once the lake has frozen over, warming shelters such as this one begin to appear scattered over the ice. The Chain O’ Lakes area is popular with ice fisherman seeking a variety of catch, from pan fish to walleyes.

Brick was prohibited under a civil agreement that she entered voluntarily from leaving her Genoa City residence with the girls without the supervision of another adult in the household, Balog said. The girls’ grandparents reported that Brick had left with the girls about 6:30 a.m. Jan. 10. The girls’ biological father is deceased, Balog said. He said Brick and Hogel have no apparent connection to the location where they were found in Kansas. Police received information that the couple were headed to Florida or Arizona, and Kansas was

The man was identified as Hogel, who eventually led police to a hotel in Overland Park, Kan., where Tiffany Brick and the girls were, according to police. Authorities returned the children to Walworth County, and Child Protective Services placed them in care, Balog said. Brick made it back to Walworth County for a court

appearance Jan. 12 on felony charges of uttering a forgery and five counts of misappropriation of identifying information to obtain money. Matters related to Brick and her children are being handled by the Walworth County Health and Human Services Department and Child Protective Services, Balog said. He declined to comment on whether drugs were a factor in the matter. Conditions of Brick’s bond in the identity theft case prohibit her from possessing or consuming alcohol or illegal drugs.

A mother worries about daughter’s living conditions Just as we were beginning to worry about the upcoming winter months that are so hard on the senior citizens, veterans and the handicapped turning to us for assistance, we received a heartwarming phone call from the Fox Charities matching grant donors. They were overjoyed in hearing we had successfully matched their Christmas Wish $25,000 matching grant. After the many years they have been encouraging donations with their matching grant motivation they are aware of the “seasons of giving”. They are also aware of the overwhelming need for poverty relief in the cold winter months, when utility bills skyrocket, the need for shelter can be life threatening and car repairs are essential, as even the option of walking or riding a bike to work can be too hazardous. That is why Fox Charities will be offering a new matching grant opportunity in 2017 called the Fox Charities New Year Wish $25,000 matching

grant. Now that the season of giving is over our donations usually dwindle down to a slow trickle. Unfortunately removing the pains of poverty is a year round endeavor, not just during the holidays. January, February and March are bitter cold and for senior citizens trying to cut back on expenses, the first things cut back on are usually food and lowering the thermostat. Having walked into many situations where I find senior citizens wearing coats and blankets indoors I know the need for utility assistance is real. Thanks to the Fox Charities New Year Wish $25,000 matching grant we will be able to provide a continuity of caring and sharing. The love and poverty relief we

share with our neighbors in need will be brought to many in the next few winter months. We are so very grateful for the generosity shared with The Time is Now to Help and the assistance it provides throughout our communities, removing the pains and suffering of poverty for our fellow creations.

made it paycheck to paycheck. Now with only my paycheck we have had to cut back even more by lowering our thermostat and eating less food.” I knew by looking at all of them that they had probably been doing all those things for a while. They were all thin and dressed in jackets and thick sweaters indoors. I asked the wife if she would mind if I called the landlord. She was happy I offered to try and speak to the stubborn landlord. I called the landlord on the phone number she provided. He answered in an argumentative manner and the conversation went downhill from there. When I was through talking to the rude man I felt my own heart pounding so I could see why the husband was unable to talk to him. We did resolve one thing though and that was that the family would be moving out of the disgusting rental and moving into an apartment that was not full of mold and disrepair. I informed the landlord that the family would no longer be renting the home as it was uninhabitable. I had to threaten him with sharing several code violations with the proper authorities in order to have him free the family of their lease and I informed him they better be repaired before I see anyone else living in this nearly condemned home. After the landlord shouted several profanities he hung up the phone. I turned to the husband and wife in disbelief and said, “I don’t know how you dealt with that man for so long. I usually get along with most landlords and they are most times willing to work with our charity. I am happy to tell you he will be releasing you from your lease and we can now work on finding you a hospitable rental.” I made several phone calls to landlords I have good working relationships with and found a reasonably priced, just remodeled rental that the landlord would rent to this struggling family. When I hung up the phone this time there were smiles, not stressful frowns on the faces of all of us. The wife then looked concerned as she asked, “How will we be able to pay for the first month’s rent and move all this with

• Time is now my husband so sick and going in for surgery soon?” I realized I had not told them what we would be doing to help them. I answered, “I just happen to know several good volunteers that would be happy to help you pack and move. We also have a caring group of donors that allow The Time is Now to Help to give assistance with rent and utilities. Thanks to all of them we will be able to provide you with first month’s rent and security deposit.” I watched as the look of shock and then relief washed over the woman’s face. The husband looked down and tried to hide the fact that he was crying tears of relief. Then they hugged each other and both began to cry. Our heartfelt assistance was given just as promised. The husband was able to go through his surgery and return to their new rental that was not filled with mold and disrepair. Their working refrigerator contained good food and their rooms were warm. They all also received new beds as we discovered old worn mattresses when the volunteers helped them move. At my last visit the family greeted me at the door with a hug and was proud to show me around their clean and fresh rental. The father was making progress and hoping to return to work in six weeks. Our assistance provided the help they needed to change their lives from stressful and struggling to a good working relationship with their new landlord that left them relieved and healthy. There are many of our fellow creations turning to us for help or being referred by others. The children, the handicapped, the elderly, those that cannot fend for themselves, those living in desperate need will be crying happy tears of relief thanks to all of you, the Fox Charities New Year Wish $25,000 Matching Grant and The Time Is Now to Help working together to provide poverty relief. Together we make a difference removing the pains of poverty for our fellow creations. Thank you and God bless you.

22 agencies respond to area barn fire By Jason Arndt STAFF WRITER

A three-alarm barn fire Jan. 6 in the Town of Somers, Wis., required mutual aid from nearly two-dozen fire departments, including the Antioch Fire Department. There were no injuries to people or animals in the fire at 240 Highway H, according to Somers Fire Chief Carson Wilkinson. “As our staff pulled out of the station, within two minutes of dispatch, they could see flames in the air even though (it was) miles away,” Wilkinson said in press release. En route to the scene shortly before midnight, Wilkinson reports his department immediately called for mutual aid, and upgraded the blaze to a two-alarm fire. “A MABAS box alarm was called, which was upgraded to a second alarm when units arrived on scene and a third alarm shortly thereafter,” he states. As the first arriving units battled the fire on the east end of the barn, which was fully engulfed, the fire rapidly spread to two nearby buildings and a tractor.

EARLENE FREDERICK Hi-Liter

Five firefighters are silouhetted in the flames of a barn fire in the Town of Sommers, Wis., on Jan. 6. The fire required mutual aid from 22 different agencies, two from northern Illinois.

With assistance from 22 fire agencies, the fire was contained by 2 a.m. Saturday. “(The) fire was under control at about 2 a.m., but not extinguished, so units were on scene until slightly after 6 a.m.,” Wilkinson states. Along with the five Western Kenosha County fire departments, Silver Lake Rescue was on standby, as was Winthrop Harbor. Additionally, officials from

the City of Kenosha, Scout Leaders Rescue and the Village of Pleasant Prairie assisted. Responding agencies included the Antioch and Newport fire departments. While there were reports of smoldering and embers burning throughout the weekend, Wilkinson said there was no further need for additional emergency response from other depart-

ments. “All return visits have been Somers only and not emergency responses,” states Wilkinson. “There is a small amount of hay in an area of concrete with nothing around it that is smoldering, people see it and get concerned.” The Kenosha County Fire Investigation is conducting an investigation to determine the cause and origin, Wilkinson said.

Pilot Certification expands horizons By Jason Arndt STAFF WRITER

hen parents see their child graduate high school, oftentimes the child embarks on a new journey at a college or university away from home, leaving the parents without a presence. However, when the recent graduate plans to play NCAA Division 1 collegiate softball – which requires long-distance travel to compete for their new school – it poses a challenge for parents. For parents who want to see their child play on road trips, they must be able to commit to expensive travel. But Brian and Mandy Onstad, of Wheatland, Wis., prepared after their

daughter, Chyanne, graduated from Westosha Central High School in June. Currently, Chyanne attends the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay. The Onstand’s other two children are Amanda, 27, and Britan, who is 26. “I went to get my pilot’s license, so that when my daughter went to college to play softball, we could easily fly around to watch her play,” said Brian, who received his license at Aeris Aviation at the Sylvania Airport in Sturtevant. Brian, who has held his license for 1-1/2 years, has flown to a handful of states, including Colorado, Minnesota and Indiana using a Diamond DA40 model plane stored at the Sylvania Airport. The pilot’s license and access

to a plane, he said, gives the family another benefit when their daughter wants to pay a weekend visit. “It has been great so far, because it gives plenty of freedom to go and do what you want,” Brian said. “We have flown up (to Green Bay) to pick up Chy for dinner or to bring her home for the weekend.” While Green Bay is a relatively short trip, they have taken longer flights, including to Colorado to see Chy play softball. “We have had a blast with flying ourselves where we want to go. So far our longest trip has been to Boulder for a softball tournament,” Brian said. Flying for themselves has created a new freedom – one where they don’t have to book a trip with a commercial airline. It gives the family more flexibility. “You get to set your own

schedule and not deal with flying commercial flights,” Brian said. The freedom to fly, however, takes extensive training with a certified flight instructor and a set of responsibilities. Brian, like others before and after him, needed to take written exams and log hours in the air with a certified instructor. “(It) takes 90 days to a year depending on how the person is,” said Brian, adding the course costs vary between $8,000 and $10,000 at Aeris. Greg Smith, who serves as treasurer for the nonprofit Westosha Flying Club, is one flight instructor offering the freedom to fly.

Self-discipline recommended Smith, who received a Private Pilot License in 2000, later earned accreditation as a Master Flight

Instructor through the National Association of Flight Instructors. Through his experiences, he has guided several students through the process of receiving their pilot certificate. Like Brian, Smith cited freedom as a primary motivator for people to earn a pilot certification, with ideal trips already planned. “Some have a destination already in mind – vacation home, child at school, out of town relatives. Some just find the destination after they get their certificate,” Smith said. The certification process, he said, takes months to complete. “Consider the amount of time that getting your pilot certification is going to take,” Smith said. “You should figure it’ll take nine months to a year for most people with a day job and family to get

their certificate.” For those willing to put in the time, dedication is another recommendation. “Make certain that you can spend at least twice a week taking lessons, and then figure on two to four hours a week studying,” said Smith. “The more consistent you fly and study the easier and quicker you’ll have that certificate.” According to the Westosha Flying Club website, the Federal Aviation Administration has set requirements for people to earn their certificate. Requirements consist of a minimum of 40 hours total flight time, including 20 with a certified instructor and the purchase of course materials and exam costs. “If you were able to become proficient in this minimum time, it would cost approximately $4,650,” the website states. “While this represents a minimum cost if completed in the minimum time, your actual costs will probably run higher. This is due to very few people being ready for the practical test in minimum 40 hours.” The national average is 80 hours, the website stated. While costs are high, the website notes fees could be spread out over time, making payments manageable.

Deputies save man from suspected overdose Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies saved a 31-year-old man’s life after giving him four doses of Naloxone at around 12:35 p.m. on Jan. 8, at Rollins Road and North Wilson Road, Ingleside, according to a Sheriff’s Office press release. Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies were dispatched to a property damage crash without injuries. Deputy Robert Skrypek was first on the scene and found the driver unconscious and unresponsive. Deputy Skrypek developed information the 31 year-old male driver was overdosing on opioids, according to the release. The 31-year-old male was given two doses of an opioid blocker called Naloxone but did not respond. Skrypek began performing CPR and a another deputy administered two more doses or Naloxone. The driver regained consciousness, became alert and began speaking. He was transported to a local hospital to be evaluated, according to the release.

Most recently, the Westosha Flying Club hosted a Flying Social Hamburger event last summer. “We do some fly-in events to other airports for breakfast/lunch, and we do a club plane wash twice a year,” Smith said. Additionally, Smith said, members have paired up for expeditions. “Members often join up to split the costs of flying to a mutual destination,” said Smith. Smith, who has traveled to regional destinations, enjoys the challenges that come with his expeditions. “The thing that I enjoy the most with taking a trip somewhere is the satisfaction of planning a successful trip in spite of things that come up,” said Smith, noting unpredictable weather, airspace Mandy and Brian Onstad captured this image on a recent flight. constraints and other flight issues.
