The 10th annual Elkhorn Oktoberfest celebration will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 17, in Veterans and Pocket parks in downtown Elkhorn. The event includes more than 100 crafters and vendors showcasing handcrafted items, antiques, produce and plants, games, pumpkin decorating, bounce house, slides and more.
It’s Oktoberfest w ith Oktoberfest By Kellen Olshefski traditionally STAFF WRITER being a German celebration of the tapping of Marzen-style beers – typically brewed in March and ready for consumption in late September – several local communities are gearing up for their own versions of the autumn celebration. Lake Geneva and Elkhorn host Oktoberfest events on successive weekends this month. First up is the Lake Geneva event on Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 10 and 11.

Lake Geneva, Elkhorn are ready to celebrate Munich-style
Highway 50. Riders will be dropped off at US Bank, 303 Center Street, in downtown Lake Geneva. Buses make the trip about every 20 minutes. Unlike the Munich event where 6.7 million liters of beer are drunk each year, alcohol is not served at the Lake Geneva Oktoberfest. That is not the case in Elkhorn where the Elkhorn Area Chamber of Commerce is expanding its operations for its 10th year, by offering more beer to its patrons. The Elkhorn Oktoberfest is scheduled Saturday, Oct. 17 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. While the beer tent has been contained to Elkhorn’s Pocket Park in the past, it has been moved to a larger area on North Wisconsin Street for 2015. The ceremonial tapping of the keg is scheduled for 11 a.m. More beer choices Chris Clapper, executive director of the Elkhorn Chamber of Commerce, said the beer tent is expanding its beer and wine tasting based on comments from attendees, who have wanted more variety in beer. “So, this year we concentrated more on beer,” she said. Clapper said organizers have created a selection of various types of different beers from various Wisconsin breweries she visited in working towards a broad selection. “We’ve really added a lot of craft and IPA, but still kept with that Oktoberfest theme,” she said. “It’s not going to be your Coors Light, Miller Lite type of event. There’s going to be some specialty.” Beer selection this year will include: • Lakefront Brewery’s Pumpking Lager, IPA, and
Oktoberfest; • Milwaukee Brewing Company’s Louie’s Demise and Hopster; • Capital Brewery’s Oktoberfest, Wisconsin Amber and Mutiny IPA; • Samuel Adams’ Angry Orchard, Sinful Seasonal and Crisp Apple; • Spaten’s Oktoberfest; and

• New Glarus’s Spotted Cow, Staghorn Oktoberfest and Pumpkin Pie Lust. Clapper said for 2016 they aim to redefine some of their wines, pushing to add some higher-end wine selections. This year’s wines were announced in the first week of October. “We’re doing small things to improve based on what people have asked for,” she said. With younger crowds being fans of craft and IPA beers, Clapper said they’re hoping to draw from those crowds as well as the crowds of past years. Those who attend Oktoberfest will receive a commemorative mug, differing from last year’s, as well as tickets that allow patrons to sample the beers available. While in the past attendees have only been able to purchase samples, this year, Clapper said, they’ll allow people to purchase full-size beers. A chili cook-off As in past years Oktoberfest will include a chili cookoff, live music, entertainment from community groups, various vendors and a classic car show. North Wisconsin Street will be closed off from Moy’s to Friends on the Square to provide space for live music and additional vendors in the downtown area. The annual chili cook-off will again be held from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m., with first-, second- and third-place prizes being awarded in the People’s Choice Contest. Prizes range from $50 to $200 for the three winners. The Chamber requires entry forms be completed and turned in by Oct. 12 to the Chamber Office. Contestants are asked to bring at least eight quarts of warmed chili (no pasta) in a Nesco or large crock pot and contestants must provide a server. Contestants must stay until contest winners are announced at about 2 p.m. The Sixth Annual Elkhorn Oktoberfest Classic Car Show will be held in the north parking lot of the Walworth County Government Center, along Court Street from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Five non-perishable food items or a

$5 donation to the Elkhorn Food Pantry are appreciated for entry. Clapper said the first 75 cars will receive dash plaques. Space is limited and there will also be a People’s Choice Award for the best classic car. The City of Elkhorn Parks and Recreation Department will be holding it’s Lights and Ladders event from 9 a.m. to noon on South Broad Street, out in front of Elkhorn City Hall and the fire and rescue department. This event offers families a chance to get up close and personal with some of the city and county’s cars, trucks and utility vehicles, ranging from fire trucks and ambulances to electric utility trucks and ATVs. Clapper said people have told her in past years they love that it is a family friendly event, providing plenty of
opportunities for attendees of all ages. “People feel comfortable that they can purchase a wrist band for their child so they can go play over there and mom and dad can walk around,” she said. “There’s something for everyone. The guys who want to can go look at cars, the women can shop and then they can go meet in the beer and wine tent.” Additionally, Clapper said, the Chamber will introduce its new Christmas Card for this year, which marks the organization’s 19th commissioned painting. The card will be unveiled at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday and a limited quantity of this year’s card will be available for purchase. “Come and enjoy the downtown community and everything it has to offer,” she said.

Following the frenzied flight of
A
few weeks ago, a group of people took advantage of a rare opportunity in the rural Whitewater area to get an up-close look at hummingbirds – at a banding event that’s part of a study on the small, flittering birds now in its second year. “We started the project simply because, to the best of my knowledge, no one has ever done a comprehensive study of Wisconsin’s hummers,” said Mickey O’Connor, treasurer of the Wisconsin Society for Ornithology. She has been banding songbirds for nearly 20 years. “Hummingbird banding is somewhat specialized, as there are only about 150 folks licensed through the United States Geological Survey’s Bird Banding
Page 5
Laboratory in North America,” she added. O’Connor, who is currently an avian zookeeper at the Milwaukee County Zoo – where she has worked for 19 years – said the hummingbird study targets a few key locations for banding events held close to the same day each year. That includes the Larry and Emily Scheunemann property near Whitewater, and Wyalusing State Park in Southwestern Wisconsin. The most recent event at the Scheunemann’s home took place Aug. 30 on Berg Road in rural Whitewater. “We are hoping to learn more about Wisconsin’s ruby-throated hummingbirds in terms of longevity and migration routes,” O’Connor said. “We also collect important morphological data
to include wing, tail and culmen (bill) measurements and weight as well as educating folks on the importance of hummingbirds as pollinators.” O’Connor said more information is also sought on the wintering, rufous hummingbirds that pass through Wisconsin from August to December. “Currently, the best way to track these little gems is through banding,” O’Connor said. To help out the rufous hummingbirds, according to O’Connor, people who have nectar feeders should leave them out for as long as possible. “Should someone see a hummingbird after mid-October, it is more than likely not a ruby-throated hummer, but a rufous,” O’Connor said. “Ideally, I would love for them to contact me by
email at sharpbill@aol.com and allow me to try and capture and band the bird.” Of the rufous hummingbirds that have been banded, O’Connor said, the miles they have traveled – in a short amount of time – was far beyond what was expected. “We banded a rufous in Ft. Atkinson and it flew more than 1,000 miles and was recaptured in North Carolina. This occurred in three weeks,” O’Connor said. “Also, a friend of mine in Tallahassee, Fla., banded a rufous and it was recaptured in Puget Sound, Alaska,” O’Connor said. “That is a migration of over 3,000 miles. Truly amazing.” To report a possible rufous sighting to O’Connor, email her at sharpbill@aol.com.

Dinner trains offer fourcourse meals amid autumn splendor A generation ago, top passenger trains routinely offered guests lavish meals served on china atop white tablecloths. Service was impeccable and riders were treated to a culinary experience that rivaled the finest of restaurants. That experience lives on today as the East Troy Electric Railroad proudly operates the last remaining electric interurban dining car service in North America. “Dining aboard trains was once an experience unto itself with many passengers riding the rails simply for the food,” railroad president Ryan Jonas said. “Our Dinner Train service recreates the era when fine dining aboard trains was commonplace. We take great pride in delivering an experience that is truly unique, not only to the Midwest, but to the entire country.” Four dinner train events remain this fall season. Each excursion features a unique menu: Oct. 10, Fall Harvest – stuffed pork chops, squash, tricolored potatoes, cheesecake; Oct. 17, Sweetest Day – strip steak, mashed potatoes, vegetables, cream puff swans Oct. 24, Pumpkin Express – prime rib, glazed carrots and beans, baked potato, apple pie. Dinner service includes cheese spreads and olive tapenade with assorted crackers, green salad, special
entrée, dessert, and beverage. A cash bar serving cocktails, beer and wine is also available. The train departs the railroad’s historic East Troy depot at 5:30 p.m. and returns two hours later. The cost is $68.25 per person ($50 for Oktoberfest train) and reservations are required. Visit www.easttroyrr.org and click on the Dinner Train link. Then scroll down to purchase tickets. Tickets may also be purchased by calling (262) 6423263. The East Troy Electric Railroad’s dining cars were built in 1927 for the Chicago South Shore & South Bend Railroad. The cars underwent extensive renovations by museum volunteers, resulting in mahogany trimmed, art deco-style interiors complemented by an exterior color scheme featuring the railroad’s colors of red and silver. About the railroad The East Troy Electric Railroad operates 10-mile round trip excursions from its historic East Troy depot and museum to the early 1900s style terminal at the popular Elegant Farmer store and deli in Mukwonago. Celebrating 108 years of riding the rails through Southeast Wisconsin’s Kettle Moraine countryside, this notfor-profit railroad continues to be operated and managed by over 100 volunteers committed to the operation and preservation of historic trolleys and interurban railcars.

Capturing nature
Local photographer feature in art exhibit The Good Earth Church of the Divine is hosting an art exhibit featuring the photography of East Troy resident Wayne Christensen in the Michael Fields Agricultural Institute Gallery, W2493 Highway ES, East Troy. An opening reception for “Wisconsin Thru My Lens” was Sept. 19, at Michael Fields. The exhibit will run until Dec. 17. “A friend showed me some hot air balloon photos back in the ‘70s and I was awed by the color and clarity,” Christensen said. “Soon after, I purchased a Canon WHAT: “Wisconsin Thru My AE 1 camera and Lens” photography exhibit WHERE: Michael Fields started a journey that Agricultural Institute Gallery, W2493 Highway ES, East continues Troy to this day.

poised to sip. He said it takes determination, patience and a willingness to endure all types of weather to get that special photo. Among Christensen’s favorite Wisconsin “shooting sites” are the Milwaukee lakefront, the Baraboo area, Greenfield Park, Horicon Marsh and a private sanctuary in West Bend. He said loves to capture birds in particular. “There is such a variety with so many different behaviors and habitats that represent a true photo challenge,” he said. Christensen divides his time between hours on the shoot and hours at the computer post processing photos, when in previous years similar hours would be spent in the darkroom with chemicals. Today, he can even print on canvas using current technologies. But as much as he loves the processing part of his art, “I love to be outdoors in nature,” he said. “That’s my church where I enjoy what has been created for us to see. “My wife Joan is also a nature-lover. The two of us are so fortunate to live in an area of Wisconsin where we can express our appreciation of nature and share our work with larger audiences. This is my first formal exhibition,” Christensen continued. “While it is a lot of work to mount a show like this, I am finding it very rewarding. We are making these images available at reasonable costs so that we can share our love of nature with many others.” All sales of artwork are direct to the artist.

Area native aims to educate people about the illness that afflicted her mother By Vicky Wedig STAFF WRITER
ast Troy native Shanra Kehl wants people to understand the type of cancer their loved ones have and gain the knowledge to research potential treatments. Four months after the death of her mom, Kehl – who now lives in Santa Monica, Calif. – hosted a breast cancer charity event Oct. 3 at the Grand Geneva Resort in Lake Geneva to benefit the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation. The golf scramble and Frisbee golf outing is called Teeing for Tatas: In Memory of Patricia J. Kehl. Kehl’s mother, Patricia Biersack Kehl, a rural mail carrier in East Troy for 30 years, died of triple negative breast cancer on May 30 in Florida. While “negative” is usually a good thing
when it comes to cancer, in this case it’s not, Kehl said. Triple negative breast cancers are those in which the breast cancer cells test negative for estrogen, progesterone and HER2 receptors, according to breastcancer.org. That means the growth of the cancer cells are not supported by estrogen, progesterone or the chemical Herceptin, therefore the cancer does not respond to hormonal therapies or treatments that target Herceptin, according to breastcancer.org. “When it comes to this type of cancer, negative means that the type of breast cancer isn’t responsive to chemotherapy,” Kehl said. “It can be pretty aggressive.” About 10 to 20 percent of breast cancers are triple negative, according to breastcancer. org. Patricia Kehl was diagnosed with triple negative breast cancer in June 2010, but

Black Point to present ‘murder, mayhem and mourning’ program Black Point Estate will host programs in October that aim to appeal to people seeking grisly and macabre tales from the Victorian era. On Oct. 10 and 17, the estate will revive its “When Angels Carried Them Away: Death and Mourning in the Victorian Era” program. Victorians embraced death as a cause for elaborate ritual, according to Black Point. During the era from 1876 to 1915, the ritual of death became increasingly sophisticated and public. Parlor funerals, post-mortem death photographs, Victorian hair wreaths, public mourning and séances’ all became accepted practices, according to estate docents. In addition, the period saw the development of the modern cemetery, mortician and public funeral complete with floral arrangements and hearse transportation for the deceased. The program will feature a presentation
•Breast cancer Shanra Kehl believes if her mom had steered her own treatment six months prior, she might have survived. Six month before the diagnosis, Patricia Kehl had an irregular mammogram, but the irregularity did not alarm her doctor, who advised her to keep a watch on it. Six months later, a check revealed the mass was growing and had spread. “Had she gotten a second opinion or asked for it to be removed, she might still be with us,” Shanra Kehl said. “It had grown into five or six of her lymph nodes by that time.”
Treatment trials
When cancer spreads to lymph nodes, it is in Stage 2, and Patricia Kehl’s large East Troy family went in search of treatment. Patricia Kehl underwent 30 rounds of radiation, “then they said she was good to go,” Shanra Kehl said. But 2 ½ years later, Patricia Kehl was rediagnosed and by that time could feel the tumors in the back of her neck, Shanra Kehl said. With the cancer metastasized – spread to other parts of the body – doctors began to treat Patricia Kehl with a drug that is on the market for other types of cancer. The drug worked in the beginning but then stopped being effective, Shanra Kehl said. “Each Thanksgiving, she was clear, but metastasized cancer is very aggressive,” she said. Patricia Kehl was referred to the MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston – one of three original comprehensive cancer centers

about Victorian funeral and mourning customs, a first-floor house tour, and narrated lake boat tour of maritime mishaps on the Geneva Lake Cruise Line. The presentation will be provided by Black Point docent Steven Person, who is a recently retired funeral director from Walworth Township. New to the October line-up is “Milwaukee Mayhem: Murder and Mystery in the Cream City’s First Century” by Matthew Prigge. Prigge will share stories of murder and matchstick men to all-consuming fires, painted women, and Great Lakes disasters – and the wide-eyed public who could not help but gawk at it all. The author uncovers the littleremembered and rarely told history of the underbelly of a Midwestern metropolis and presents these stories as they were recounted to the public in the newspapers of the era.
“Both Person and Prigge are excellent storytellers, so we are very pleased to offer these programs to the public at Black Point Estate,” said Dave Desimone, site director. “We strive for unique and authentic programming that is complimentary to the estate and feel both of these programs provide an entertaining and informative way to spend a fall evening in Lake Geneva.” Tickets for the each program including the narrated boat tour are $40 and can be purchased through the Lake Geneva Cruise Line by calling (262) 248-6206. The cruise departs from the Riviera boat dock at 812 Wrigley Drive, Lake Geneva, each day at 4 p.m. and returns at about 7:30 p.m. Regular tours of the estate will continue at 10:30 a.m. daily through Oct. 31. A second tour will be available at 12:30 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays.
The Geneva Lake Arts Foundation Inc. opened its fall exhibition “Impressions” Aug. 21 at the GLAF Gallery in the North Shore Pavilion, 647 Main St. in Lake Geneva. The exhibit will be “people’s choice,” which means gallery visitors will be asked to vote for the artwork of their choice for awards to be given in selected categories. The exhibit will run through Nov. 8 and is available for viewing by the public during open gallery hours. The foundation encourages area residents to come, see, appreciate, and vote for their artwork done by the artists. The group is always looking for donors to contribute awards on an ongoing basis. Residents or organizations interest in supporting aspiring artists with monetary awards should contact the foundation at 2497988. The Geneva Lake Arts Foundation Gallery hours are 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturdays and 1 to 4 p.m. Sundays.

There, Shanra Kehl said, cancer professionals had “amazing bedside manners” but were also very frank. “They didn’t have anything for her,” she said. “They said, ‘You are going to die from this.’” At that point, her cancer was Stage 4 – terminal, and Patricia Kehl went to Florida where she underwent six or seven different types of chemotherapy. “She tried every drug that was possible for this cancer,” Shanra Kehl said. In addition to medical treatments, Patricia Kehl changed her diet and tried a holistic approach. Shanra Kehl said her mom juiced every day, eliminated meat, sugar and alcohol from her diet, ate only organic foods, tried acupuncture and spoke to a holistic counselor. “She really tried everything,” she said. “We really surrounded a whole team of people around her.”
Asking questions
Shanra Kehl organized the charity event during October – cancer awareness month – with multiple goals, one of which is to make people aware that more than one type of breast cancer exists. “It’s amazing how many people that, the moment they get breast cancer, they have no idea to even ask what type of cancer it is,” she said. “You don’t really know how to help somebody who’s battling cancer if you don’t know what they’re up against.” She said women – and men, who also get breast cancer – need to know the type

of cancer they have so they can educate themselves about it. “There’s so many questions you need to ask when you get it,” she said. Kehl also aims to bring the community together with the event. The large Biersack family has deep roots in East Troy and Elkhorn, and Kehl’s aunt, Linda Lee, of Elkhorn, also died of breast cancer this year after being diagnosed 15 years ago. Patricia Kehl was well known as a mail carrier in the community for three decades, and her husband, Dean Kehl, was a contractor in the Lake Geneva area and retired from Elkhorn-based Teronomy Builders before moving to Florida. Shanra Kehl said area businesses have been generous in donating items for the charity event.
“Literally almost every single company we’ve approached or knocked on their door has given us something for the event,” she said. The effort to raise money for the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation began online several weeks before the event was held. The online effort is aimed to reach donors from across the country and people who weren’t able to attend the event at Grand Geneva, Shanra Kehl said. Kehl chose the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation as the benefactor for the benefit because of its specific goal of finding treatment that will work for cancers that don’t respond to hormonal therapies. And, unlike larger organizations like Susan G. Komen for the Cure – the Triple Negative Breast Cancer Foundation has three employees. Kehl is confident all of the proceeds will go to their intended use.
Inspiration jewelry
Shanra Kehl said while her mother lived with cancer, she was eager to help others with the disease. Mother and daughter often attended walks during October and handed out necklaces from a line Shandra Kehl created in her mother’s honor. “The whole point of the jewelry line was to inspire women,” she said. Proceeds from the jewelry sales go to the Pink Daisy Project – a Seattle-based organization that provides supplemental income to cancer patients while they’re undergoing treatment. The breast cancer jewelry line can be seen at pj57jewelry.com.

•Hummingbirds About hummingbirds Hummingbirds are small, colorful birds with iridescent feathers. Their name comes from the fact that they flap their wings so fast (about 80 times per second) that they make a humming noise. Hummingbirds can fly right, left, up, down, backwards, and even upside down. They are also able to hover by flapping their wings in a figure-8 pattern. They have a specialized long and tapered bill that is used to obtain nectar from the center of long, tubular flowers. The hummingbird’s feet are used for perching only, and are not used for hopping or walking. Like other birds, hummingbirds communicate via visual displays. They are very territorial and have been observed chasing each other – and larger birds – away from their territory. Hummingbirds primarily eat flower nectar, tree sap, insects and pollen. Their fast breathing, fast heartbeat and high body temperature require that they eat often. Since hummers, like most birds, have virtually no sense of smell, the flowers that attract them tend to have little or no fragrance, apparently directing their resources instead toward high visibility and nectar production. While those interested in attracting hummingbirds should visit a local nursery for suggestions specific to this climate and area, some of the best trees and shrubs to consider if planning a hummingbird garden include: azaleas, cape and coral honeysuckle, flowering quince, mimosa, red buckeye, vines and

trumpet creeper. Perennials known to attract hummingbirds include: canna, coral bells, foxglove, hosta, little cigar and penstemon. Annuals include: firespike, fuchsia, impatiens and petunias. In addition to food sources, convenient perching opportunities will make a yard more hospitable to hummingbirds since they spend about 80 percent of their time sitting on twigs, leaf stems and clotheslines between feeding forays and sorties against trespassing rivals. Getting involved The Wisconsin Society for Ornithology is a volunteer, nonprofit 501(c)(3) organization that was established in 1939 and advocates for birds, birders and avian researchers. WSO provides opportunities for people to enjoy resident and migratory birds, while being a leading steward and ambassador for Wisconsin’s birds. The society welcomes all birders – young and old – beginners, backyard enthusiasts, tourists, conservationists, and professional ornithologists. Membership dues and donations enable the WSO to produce its publications, events and programs, strengthen the state’s birding community and support bird-related research, conservation and education in Wisconsin. Members receive the following: a New Member Welcome kit; quarterly issue of the “Passenger Pigeon” journal; monthly issues of the “Badger Birder” newsletter; monthly e-alerts

on birding events across the state; invitations to members-only field trips; advance notifications on the group’s conventions, symposia and field trips; and opportunities to volunteer in birding events and programs. There are several levels of membership offered including lifetime. For more information visit wsobirds.org
and under ‘Support’ near the top of the page select ‘Become a Member.’ “We are always seeking folks who share a passion for the natural world,” O’ Connor said.
