Suspected Walmart thief also charged in five Rock County cases By Vicky Wedig EDITOR

More than 60 people attend the Delavan-Darien Rotary Club meeting Monday at Lake Lawn Resort to hear Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch talk about Gov. Scott Walker’s biennial budget and Wisconsin’s attractiveness as a location for companies.

Lieutenant governor: Budget embodies state ‘forward’ motto

Kleefisch speaks to Rotary, chamber at Lake Lawn Resort By Vicky Wedig EDITOR

“Forward,” is an apropos motto for Wisconsin, and Gov. Scott Walker’s biennial budget released Feb. 3 fulfills that maxim, Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch told Delavan-Darien Rotary Club members Monday. “To me, that is one of the most exciting mottos they could have come up with,” Kleefisch told more than 60 Rotarians and Delavan-Delavan Lake Area Chamber of Commerce members gathered at Lake Lawn Resort. Plus, it beats the originally proposed motto of “upward,” the Latin translation of which was also a trade name for pine shavings used to fill pillows at the time, she said. Kleefisch opened her remarks at the luncheon meeting by acknowledging speculation that Walker, a Delavan native, might run for president. She also razzed her boss a bit, referring to his 1986 Delavan-Darien High School graduation photo. “If you really love this man, why is it you let him pose for his senior picture with a mullet?” said Kleefisch, a former broadcast journalist and mother of two from Oconomowoc. Walker designated Kleefisch as the administration’s liaison to Wisconsin’s small businesses, and she has hosted small business roundtables throughout the state. Kleefisch meets with site selectors for companies and said Wisconsin has a lot to offer potential businesses and industry with its infrastructure and transportation. She said people are coming to Wisconsin from south of the state border for more than just better football. She said the state has better business practices, better government and lower taxes. The budget Walker rolled out last week, she said, invests an additional $10.4 million into the Wisconsin Fast Forward program to close the skills gap that exists in the state.

She said Wisconsin has 73,298 open jobs but still has people collecting unemployment. The “gap” is the disparity between those open jobs and the people who have the qualifications the companies are looking for. The now $35-million Fast Forward program aims to provide technical training and other post-secondary education opportunities to close the gap.

Vision Plastics co-owner Craig Hubertz talks to Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch at Lake Lawn Resort on Monday.

The Delavan Lake Boat Shed plans to add antique car dealer to its repertoire by spring. The Delavan Town Board approved a conditional use permit Jan. 20 to allow antique auto sales and service to the business. The approval must still pass the Walworth County Zoning Agency. Business owner Jamie Jarosz said the Boat Shed does service work on cars and boats and has always had a couple of cars for sale – mostly customer’s cars. But, he said, the business plans to expand to become an antique car dealer, selling primarily cars from the 1920s and 1930s and some from the ‘40s. “We have a batch of them in stock,” Jarosz said. He said the Boat Shed has 20 to 25 cars in storage between its own collection and customer’s cars and would like to have eight to 10 of

Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch razzed her boss about this 1986 photo from the Delavan-Darien High School yearbook, asking Rotarians and Chamber of Commerce members how they could allow their hometown boy to pose for his senior picture with a mullet.

A suspect in an attempted theft at Walmart who was tackled by an off-duty officer along Highway 50 after running from police pleaded not guilty to three felony and four misdemeanor offenses. Anthony L. Evans, 35, of Freeport, Ill., pleaded not guilty Jan. 30 to felony bail jumping; two counts of retail theft, intenAnthony Evans tionally taking items valued at $500 to $5,000; attempted felony retail theft, attempting to take items valued at $500 to $5,000; criminal damage to property; and two counts of disorderly conduct. A status conference is scheduled in the case for April 10. According to the criminal complaint, Evans loaded several TVs and other items valued at $539 into a cart at Walmart and pushed the cart into the parking lot without paying for the items Dec. 18. After Walmart management confronted Evans, he ran away and abandoned the cart near Panera Bread, according to the complaint.

– THIS AREA INTENTIONALLY LEFT BLANK FOR ADDRESS LABEL –

The Delavan-Darien School Board discussed a long-standing policy of denying open enrollment applications from parents who wish to have their children attend school in another district. The board has for months adopted the policy of denying almost all applications as a message that the district is improving and families should give it a chance despite knowing the Department of Public Instruction would always overturn the decision. Board President Jeff Scherer said he recently met with state Rep. Steve Nass and was told the practice is adding to the district’s negative reputation. Steve Logterman said radio personality Charlie Sykes recently levied some harsh criticism at the dis-

trict and said he wonders what good it does to deny applications that are going to get approved anyway. Joe Peyer said he and others on the board have written letters to Nass that have gone unanswered and Nass, in his opinion, does not know enough about what is going on in the district. He also said Sykes does not have all the facts and takes issue with his comments. Peyer and Roxann Kelton argued that denying the applications is a way for the district to stand up for itself. In trying to decide its future course toward open enrollments, the board first considered leaving the decision to Crist, but that vote failed 3-3 with Peyer, Kelton and Jim Hansen opposed. The board later decided to keep the decision in its hands and voted to approve this month’s applications by a 4-2 votes

On Jan. 5, Walmart personnel again saw Evans put a TV, a computer and a vacuum cleaner valued at $1,846 into a cart at Walmart and leave the store without paying for them. While in the store, Evans urinated on three Dirt Devil vacuum cleaners, which could not be sold and had to be destroyed, according to the complaint. On Jan. 13, police responded to Walmart where Evans had placed $233 worth of items into a cart and was attempting to remove a security device from a computer when he was spotted by a Walmart loss prevention agent, according to the complaint. Evans ran from the store and was apprehended by Delavan police including an off-duty officer who tackled Evans along Highway 50 when Evans reached into the waistband of his pants for his inhaler, according to the complaint and police reports. Evans was out on bond at the time of all of the incidents in five Rock County court cases. In those cases, Evans is charged with six counts of retail theft, one of them a felony offense; theft of movable property; four counts of misdemeanor bail jumping; obstructing an officer; and possession of drug paraphernalia.

with Peyer and Kelton opposed. Calendar approved The board approved the 2015-16 school calendar after some debate about starting the school year before Labor Day. Labor Day falls on Sept. 7 this year. State law does not allow school to begin before Sept. 1. The start date for school as proposed was Sept. 1 leading Sharon Gonzalez to argue against starting before Labor Day. Gonzalez said many students will miss three days of school to attend the Walworth County Fair. The alternatives were to extend the school year into the third week of June or reduce winter break, neither of which were popular with the rest of the board. The board voted 5-1 to approve the calendar with the Sept. 1 start date. Gonzalez was opposed.

He said the cars sell for $5,000 to $40,000 with an average price in the high teens. He said a market seems to exist for the late-model cars with quite a few people adding to their collections. “It seems to be growing,” he said. Delavan Lake Boat Shed is at 5495 Highway 50 kitty corner from Dairy Queen. The 35-year-old family business specializes in antique and classic wood boats from the 1920s to the 1960s. Jurosz said the business restores and stores wood boats. It plans to add antique car sales and service within its existing building, he said. The Boat Shed is open seven days a week in spring, summer and fall and plans to begin operating as an antique auto dealer before spring.

Engineer talks about I-39/90 construction Professional engineer Kofi Yartey, construction manager for Wisconsin Department of Transportation’s southwest region, spoke to the Delavan-Darien Rotary Club on Feb 2 at Lake Lawn Resort. Yartey is the construction project manager on the Interstate 39/90 improvement project from the Illinois state line south of Beloit 45 miles north to Madison. The section of interstate was built from 1958 to 1961 and has not had significant upgrades since then, Yartey said. Many of the interchanges are outdated and need repair or upgrade. The section of the interstate is one of the busiest in the state with 45,000 to 60,000 cars per day traveling it, Yartey said. It is also a designated federal truck route, and 35 percent of the traffic is heavy trucks. The roadway also has congestion on weekends, espe-

cially in the summer. Lately, the congestion has been spilling over into Friday and Monday, he said. The upgrade project will cost more than $1 billion and is expected to take until 2020. Accidents on this stretch of interstate totaled 1902 from 2008 to 2012, and this rate is 20 percent higher than other interstates in Wisconsin. Eleven interchanges will be reworked during the project. A notable interchange improvement will be construction on Highway 11 and is called a diverging diamond interchange where traffic crosses over to the opposite side of the road, with traffic signals at the ramps, to create a free flow left turn movement onto the interstate. The country has only six interchanges like this and this will be the first in Wisconsin. Construction on the I-39/90 project is scheduled to begin this year.

VIP Services officials recognize Pentair and Walmart representatives as Outstanding Community Business Partners of 2014. Pictured are (from left) VIP Board President Donna Neshek, VIP sales manager Rob Likes, Pentair’s Terri Frey, VIP Outstanding Achievement Honoree of the Year Kim Luedtke, VIP Executive Director Cindy Simonsen and Walmart’s Debbie Kitzman and Kathy Wheeler.

Walmart, Pentair recognized for support of VIP Services Clients also receive achievement awards

VIP Services of Elkhorn recognized client and business partners for their achievements at the agency’s annual recognition dinner Feb. 5 at Evergreen Golf Club. The Individual Client Achievement Award for 2014 was presented to Kim Luedtke, of East Troy. Luedtke was recognized for her hard work and perseverance since coming to VIP Services in 2010. Additional 2014 honorees are Kristen Stachowiak, Derek Cyra and Willis Harden, all of East Troy, Patrick Schaffer, of Genoa City, Joe Collins, Leanne Wilson, Cliff Katzman, Sheri Baker and Warren Werner, of Elkhorn, all of Elkhorn, and Brigette Brown and Mary Serna, both of Lake Geneva. The evening also paid tribute to two local businesses for the outstanding partnerships that they

have demonstrated in working with VIP Services Inc. over the past year. Walmart of Delavan was named Employer of the Year. Walmart has partnered with VIP Services and the Wisconsin Division of Vocational Rehabilitation by offering employment opportunities in multiple store departments. In 2014, five VIP clients worked as Walmart associates, two of whom have been continuously employed at the Delavan store for more than 10 years. The Walmart management team, represented by store manager Tim Casey, was recognized for its commitment to providing a supportive environment for the clients placed there and the staff who support them. Pentair was honored as the 2014 Business Partner of the Year. Terri Frey received the award on behalf of the company. The VIP and Pentair

partnership goes back many years and continues to flourish, according to VIP Services. Over the past 10 years, VIP Services clients have supplied 2.8 million parts and kits to the company. In 2014 the partnership expanded with the addition of new projects averaging an additional 2,000 parts per week. On average, 10 VIP clients a day work on Pentair projects. During some seasons, especially springtime, that number can easily double as clients work on parts needed in flood-ravished parts of the country where Pentair pumps are vital to restoration efforts. VIP Services is a 501 (C)(3) nonprofit organization committed to the mission of empowering people with disabilities to explore and experience endless possibilities through a broad continuum of programming.

April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month April is National Child Abuse Prevention Month and the Walworth County Alliance for Children and Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin are partnering together to create an awareness campaign of preventing child abuse and neglect in the community. In 2014, suspected abuse was reported against 1,359 children in Walworth County. The Walworth County Alliance for Children and Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin are requesting that everyone in Walworth County promote the message, “We believe in the voice of a child,” during April.

Brookwood teacher selected for Master Teacher Project By Anne Trautner STAFF WRITER

When fourth-grade teachers across the country want to come up with a good way to teach how to build factor pairs, many times they go to BetterLesson.com to find an interactive lesson plan. Many of the math lessons there are developed by Mary Ellen Kanthack, who has been teaching at Brookwood Middle School for 15 years. The site features lesson materials, as well as videos that show Kanthack teaching her students so that other teachers can mimic the teaching method. “It’s just a lot of fun,” Kanthack said. Kanthack, a nationally board certified teacher, has produced 140 lessons for the site. Some of Kanthack’s materials are downloaded 60 times a week. The National Education Association selected Kanthack in December 2013 to develop math lessons for the site as part of the Master Teacher Project. Kanthack was one of 95 teachers selected from more than 1,200 applicants from across the country to participate in the project. “It’s all pretty exciting stuff. It has been the highlight of my career,” Kanthack said. “I’ve been really honored to be a part of such an amazing group of people.” Kanthack’s lessons all include hands-on activities with

technology integration. Because her students all work oneon-one with iPads, computers are utilized in the lessons. Kanthack has worked on a team of four teachers to develop engaging lessons. Two of the teachers are from Montana and the other one hails from Tennessee. Kanthack’s coach is a math curriculum director in Boston. The team meets virtually, online, on a regular basis. By November, 400,000 teachers had hit the site, which means that one in 10 teachers across the United States is using the website to help with their instruction, Kanthack said. The free site was developed as part of the Master Teacher Project to develop curriculum that would align with the Common Core standards, Kanthack said. “Common Core is wonderful, despite the bad press I’ve seen. I think it’s the best thing for mathematics that has rolled out,” Kanthack said. “My school district has used it now

for three years, and in these three years, now the fourth year, I have seen tremendous growth in understanding, a better sense of how mathematics works.” In June, Kanthack was asked to stay on for another year to develop materials for the Next Generation Science Standards, which are slated to roll out across the nation in 2016, Kanthack said. “They align with Common Core. You can teach and integrate math and science and social studies and language arts and line that all up so you are making their instruction very rich because of the integration of those materials,” Kanthack said. For example, Kanthack’s students began learning about erosion in Nepal by reading a book in literature class. Then the students wrote about Nepal. Then, the students learned about erosion in math, science and social studies classes. The students watched a video that pinpointed places of erosion

and showed how erosion and weathering changes landscape over time. Then, Kanthack brought the lesson back to Wisconsin so that students could take a look at erosion and how it has affected the local area. “It is beautifully intermeshed and can be integrated very beautifully. So you have integration of math, language arts, social studies and science. It’s all together while you are meeting these standards. It helps teachers be able to kill a lot of birds with one stone,” Kanthack said. The Next Generation Science Standards is filled with connections to practical things, Kanthack said. “What excites me about it is that the kids look at that and then can look at the world, and go, ‘Yeah, I see where this fits,’” she said. Kanthack is on a team of four science teachers from across the country who are working to develop curriculum that allows students to investigate through experimentation.

Legally married same-sex couples do not have to reside in the state in which they were legally married to qualify. But the new IRS rules do not apply to domestic partnerships or civil unions. Because state income tax laws vary, same-sex couples may want to get help from a local CPA. It’s not unusual for taxpayers to receive corrected 1099 forms late in tax filing season. If you have investments, prepare your tax return now and then delay filing it electronically until just before the April 15 deadline. You can take your time preparing your return and make last-minute changes without filing an amended return. “If you’re going to have a large balance due on April 15, you want to find out now,” says Melissa Labant, director of tax advocacy for the AICPA. “That’s much better than a surprise at the last minute.” 192930

Church/School

Some things never change

Our church is going to be celebrating its 170th anniversary on Feb. 15. That is amazing! The church started before Wisconsin was even a state! It was on Feb. 14, 1845, that a group of people met out in the country in East Delavan at the log schoolhouse and prayed and sought the Lord’s direction about starting the church. The pastor who helped them begin was Rev. Henry Topping, who also started First Baptist Church a few years earlier than that and also started the Brick Church in Walworth. All three of these churches continue today. As I was preparing for

it is fun to see the changes over the years. It is obvious that the style of dress has By changed. One of our favorite REV. STEVE HOLLENBECK pictures is of the old church Contributor building beside the old Bethel schoolhouse with a horse carriage parking lot in between!

now in the past 40 years. The equipment that we used to break ground and build the new additional building in 2008 was much different than what they used in the 1970s! It is amazing to see how quickly our society has changed with the advancement of technology and the improvement and speed of communication today. But some things never change. In fact, some things should not change. Though we live in a fast-changing world, we must remember that God does not change. Hebrews 13:8 says, “Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever.” This

verse teaches us the immutability of Jesus Christ. What is it about God that never changes? He never changes in His essence. His attributes, including His omnipotence (all powerful), omnipresence, and omniscience (all knowing) never change. He is and always will be supreme and all powerful. His glory is magniﬁcent and never changes. We can look forward to the day that we will behold His glory! The Bible promises that one day all the world will see His magniﬁcent glory. His truth never changes. God never changes in His character. He is always holy, perfect,

loving and merciful. Also it is very important to realize that His purpose never changes. He has a will and a plan for the ages, and it is wonderful to know that His promises never change. With this understanding, we can be encouraged and have assurance in Him. Though there are many changes around us and though we do not know what tomorrow holds, we can be assured that in the end, God will be victorious and that He will keep His promises to us. Have you trusted Him? The Rev. Steve Hollenbeck is pastor of East Delavan Baptist Church, 3205 Theatre Road, Delavan.

Older woman struggles with medical expenses Dear W.C., I am an 80-year-old widow who needs help. I have been renting the same house for the past 10 years, ever since my husband died. I am having a hard time paying my rent this month due to a car repair and I had to go see the dentist. My car repair was much more expensive than I had thought it would be and it took all my rent money I had set aside. I do not work and I live on Social Security. It is not much but I have always been able to get by. Now I am in terrible pain all the time due to several bad teeth in my mouth. The dentist told me to go see an oral surgeon, but I cannot afford that. I don’t know what to do about this as I can barely eat or even think straight with this pain. If you were only able to help me with one thing, at this point I would choose getting my teeth fixed even if it meant I would become homeless. I can’t continue living like this. Please, please can you help me? I have never asked for help before in my life. This is very humbling for me. Dear readers, I went to the address listed to make an unplanned visit. It was a small older house. My knock at the door was answered by a senior woman. She recognized me and, after I showed my identification, she invited me inside. Even before I had introduced myself I recognized she was in pain. She visibly winced and was holding the side of her face. I asked the woman how bad her dental pain was on a scale from one to 10 and her answer was nine. I was filled with sympathy over the pain she was suffering in. Dental pain is usually very intense and unbearable. I could see that was what she was enduring.

I reached DIMICELI Columnist over and grasped her hands and she looked up in surprise. She smiled and said, “Do you know how long it has been After a brief conversation since someone has talked to I began to ask important me or held my hand? Do you questions about her family know what it is like to live and finances. She sadly in pain and fear and not have shared with me, “My husband any friends or family to turn died 10 years ago and one of to?” I looked her in the eyes my sons died three years ago. and said, “Yes I do.

He lives out of state.” if I can’t give you the help I asked more details about myself I will find someone her troubled son and saw the that can.” She was crying pain she suffered from that again saying, “God bless you, as well. The senior woman thank you, thank you.” I told tearfully shared with me her to not thank me but to the details of her husband’s thank all of you who would painful death from cancer make her assistance even 10 years previous, and then possible. three years ago she lost her We went on to going over son to cancer as well.

One son had always been give us the best price possible compassionate and loving, for the extractions needed to did what was right, and was relieve her pain. I told her she always there to help. The needed to have this done as woman said, “He was just soon as possible. I pulled up like his father. They were his number from my contacts always close. He took it so and called to approve her hard when his father died. surgery. I handed the phone He just never seemed to get to her so she could make an over it.” Then she told me appointment. She looked about her other son that she surprised but took the phone never saw. “He was always from me as I told her to impatient and jealous over make an appointment. After his brother. I always loved she made her appointment, I

made a call to a volunteer to set up a driver for her day of surgery. The senior woman was even more surprised when she heard me making these arrangements. She said, “I am speechless. I have had no one even care about me for years and now you even make sure I have someone take me for my surgery. I don’t know how to thank you for this.” I said, “The only thanks we need are prayers for The Time Is Now to Help and all the people we help.” The woman’s reply was, “You don’t have to ask me for that. I am already thanking God for you.” After a thorough review of her finances, I could see she was just getting by before these two emergency expenses. I set up an appointment to have the remainder of the work needed on her car completed. We paid her overdue rent to help relieve some of the financial strain. When I finally got up to leave the senior woman wrapped her arms around me and gave me a long hug. She kissed my cheek and said, “You are an angel W.C.” Several weeks later the senior woman’s whole life was improved. She is now pain free and her mouth improves daily. The volunteer continues to check on her regularly and is happy to report the woman is very independent. After spending time together and some food deliveries, especially soft foods and soup as she was recuperating from her surgery, they have formed a wonderful friendship. The senior woman that was once all alone now has a friend. She also has started going to church with the volunteer. The once lonely, sad and pain-filled woman is a completely different person. Her life has been renewed thanks to all of you making

our mission possible. At my follow-up visit, the senior widow wanted me to share with all of you her heartfelt thanks for all we do together. I had previously explained to her how I do not do this alone, it is all of us together. She asked me to tell all of you, “Please tell everyone that is involved with The Time Is Now to Help that they are in my prayers. I am so thankful for all you have done to rekindle my life. Every day has once again become such a blessing. I have no more pain. I am not living in financial fear and I know I am not alone.” With that I gave her a hug and told her, “You will never be alone again.” As she hugged me in return, both our eyes were filled with happy tears. Thank you to Richard H. Driehaus for providing The Time Is Now to Help with a $30,000 matching grant so we may continue providing desperately needed help to those turning to us for assistance.

The capitol beat

Walker’s school public funding plan is cloudy

Officials for both public and private schools are puzzled by Gov. Scott Walker’s budget for elementary and secondary education. They agree that more state taxpayer support is needed for each of them to succeed. Walker’s budget calls for expanding the voucher program that provides state help for the poor to send their children to participating voucher schools.

schools would provide a better education. That fight bubbled up as public school administrators assailed the governor’s approach. John Forester, director of government relations for School Administrators Alliance, also noted the Walker administration expects a 4.7 percent increase in general tax revenue in the first year of the biennium. “Despite overwhelming evidence that private school vouchers do not improve student achievement and lack adequate accountability to the public, Gov. Walker continues to pursue private school voucher expansion,” said Forester. “The ultimate objective of voucher advocates is a statewide system of privateschool vouchers for all Wisconsin children,” he added. The governor wasn’t buying criticism of his budget ideas. ‘’To me, the losers are the

people who want to grow the state government beyond the state’s ability to pay,” Walker said. But, to hear both the private and public school leaders, the financial picture for the upcoming school year is at best unclear. The local school budget issues have gone largely unnoticed in the media because of the controversy over Walker’s budget plans for the University of Wisconsin System. His budget calls for a $300 million, two-year reduction in state support for the system. Walker also proposed eliminating the “Wisconsin Idea” of public service that dates back more than a century. The governor retreated, first suggesting the Wisconsin Idea change was a “drafting error,” then said it was caused by confusion among his staff. The governor suggested the budget issue could be partially solved if the university faculty would teach an additional

course. University officials predicted that other topnotch schools would raid the faculty ranks, offering other jobs to UW faculty who are leaders in their disciplines. Walker’s move attracted national attention because he is preparing to run for national office. Two weeks before he released his budget, the governor urged local school officials to encourage high schools students to think about going to technical and vocational schools A two-year technical school education “is just as noble and needed as those of their classmates who go on to a four-year college or university,” Walker said in a speech in Milwaukee.

An eye on the market

Lake home sales still down Properties with lake access selling better

By Ryan Simons

$385,000.

CONTRIBUTOR

Delavan Lake real estate activity was mixed during 2014 with sales on the main body at five-year lows while lake access homes were up 20 percent over the prior year. Inventories continued to fall and the market may be setting up to show an increase in lake home pricing in 2015 as demand picks up along with the general economy. For 2014, there were only 10 homes that sold on the main body of Delavan Lake. If properties on the Inlet and Outlet are included, sales were a respectable 17 properties. This is down from 19 sales in 2013. The lakefront sales ranged from $430,000 for a threebedroom, three-bath home

on the South Shore with 50 feet of lakefront to a $1.325 million property near the Community Park. The million-dollar sale featured seven bedrooms, seven baths, a guest cottage at the water front and 158 feet of private shoreline. Lake access homes ranged from a $26,000 three-bedroom cottage in the Delmar Subdivision to a newer three-bedroom, three-bathroom Cape Cod in Assembly Park that sold for

Condo sales There were 15 Delavan Lake condos sold in 2014, which is the same amount that was sold in 2013. The sales were nearly identical to 2013 with the lowest price sale consisting of a $17,000 unit in the Delavan Lake Resort and the highest being a $285,000 unit in Delavan Gardens that featured three bedrooms, three baths, an attached garage and a boat slip. Current market homes The inventory of homes for sale with Delavan Lake frontage or lake rights continued to fall in 2014. At the end of the year there were only 43 properties

available. This compares with 53 in 2013 and 60 in 2012. The price range for lakefront homes ranges from $450,000 for a teardown cottage on 50 feet of frontage off of the North Shore to $1.595 million for a magnificent brick Tudor with four bedrooms, three baths, billiard room, spacious deck and 166 feet of level lakefront. Lake access homes start at $72,000 for a smart two-bedroom starter in Delmar Subdivision to an overpriced $724,900 threebedroom in Assembly Park. For the price of the Assembly Park home, you can be on the main body with 50 feet of private frontage. Currently, there are 15 condos for sale with lake access to Delavan. The range

of those units is $75,000 for a condo/hotel in Lake Lawn Resort to $279,000 for the same unit. You are correct. That does not make sense, but someone is trying to sell the same unit for $200,000 more. The range of non-hotel units is $139,900 for a onebedroom in the Delavan Club complex to $240,000 for a two-bedroom unit in Geneva Landings. The best value for a lake access property on Delavan is located at 2700 Mason Street off of South Shore Drive. Listed at only $72,000, this is the least expensive lake-access home currently available. The home contains two bedrooms, a remodeled bath, large back yard with fire pit and an attached garage. The best value for a

Delavan lakefront is a threebedroom, two-bath ranch on South Shore. Located at 3207 South Shore Drive, this home has 50 feet of private frontage, nearly an acre of land, a wooded drive and a detached garage. It sits next to a Frank Lloyd Wright home and is offered for only $739,000. The best value for a lakefront condo is a twobedroom, two-bath unit in the Delavan Club. Listed for $199,000, the unit has a main floor bedroom, guest room and views of the Delavan Outlet. The complex contains an outdoor pool, club house, boat slips and a fitness room. Ryan Simons is a real estate agent with Keefe Real Estate Inc., 416 Bauer Parkway, Delavan.

New tax forms available for people insured through Marketplace New tax forms are being delivered nationwide to consumers who purchased health insurance through the Marketplace in 2014 through the Affordable Care Act. The 1095-A tax document is required as part of taxpayers’ annual federal tax filing. People who receive the form in the mail should keep it along with their other tax documents. The 1095-A illustrates the beginning date of insurance coverage, the amount of the monthly insurance premium, and the amount of the advance premium tax subsidy. Premium tax subsidies are available to individuals with household incomes between 100 and 400 percent federal poverty limits. For a household of four, 100 percent of federal poverty level is $23,850 gross or pre-tax. At the top of the scale, 400 percent of the federal poverty limit is a maximum household income of $95,400. Taxpayers will need the 1095-A to complete Internal Revenue Service Form 8962. Annual eligibility for premium subsidies is based on a household’s estimated income for the tax year. For example, if people apply or reapply for health insurance through the Marketplace at this time, they will estimate their household income for the 2015 tax year. The 1095-A and 8962 will help people determine if the amount of premium subsidy for the tax year was correct based on their estimated household income at the time of their application. For example, in 2016 the actual in-

come earned for the 2015 tax year might be different than what was estimated. If people’s actual incomes turn out to be higher than the estimated amount, they might have to pay all or some portion of their premium subsidies back under the IRS guidelines. If their actual income is lower than they estimated, they might get a larger tax return. The amount people will have to pay back if they have been overpaid on their premium subsidy is capped. The limits are as follows: • An individual with income less than 200 percent of the federal poverty level will be required to repay no more than $300; • Couples and families with incomes less than 200 percent of the federal poverty level will be required to repay no more than $600; • For people with incomes between 200 and 300 percent of the federal poverty level, the maximum payback is $750 for individuals and $1,500 for couples and families; • For people with incomes between 300 and 400 percent of federal poverty level, the payback is capped at $1,250 for individuals and $2,500 for couples and families; • People with incomes greater than 400 percent of the federal poverty level are required to repay the full amount. To avoid having to pay back portions of the premium, estimating household income accurately is important. People also should notify the

Marketplace within 30 days by calling 1-800-318-2596 if household income changes or the number of people in a household changes as a result of divorce, marriage, a new baby or an adult-aged child moves out of the home. Premium subsidies might be recalculated to reduce the burden at tax time. People who have mistakenly thrown away their 1095-A, may log in to their accounts on Healthcare.gov to download and print out an e-copy. The form should be checked and any errors reported to the Marketplace at 1-800-318-2596 so that a corrected 1095-A can be sent. People who were uninsured in 2014 might have to

pay a penalty tax. The penalty is the greater of 1 percent of household income or $95 per uninsured adult and $47.50 per uninsured minor-aged child. In 2015, the penalty will increase to the greater of 2 percent of household income or $325 per uninsured adult or $162.50 per uninsured minor-aged child. People may complete IRS Form 8965 to see if they or anyone in their tax filing group qualifies for an exemption from the penalty. If so, they might not need to pay a penalty to the IRS for not having health insurance. Exemptions are made for: • Individuals who are uninsured for less than three months of the tax year;

• The lowest-priced coverage available to an individual would cost more than 8 percent of his or her household income; • An individual who is not required to file a tax return because the household income is too low; • An incarcerated individual who is not being held pending disposition of charges; • An individual who qualifies for a financial hardship; • An individual who is a member of a federally recognized tribe or eligible for services through an Indian Health Services provider; • An individual who is a member of a recognized health care sharing ministry; • An individual who is a

Marketplace enrollment deadline is Sunday Tax penalty to increase for people with no insurance

The last day to enroll in health insurance in America at the Marketplace – healthcare. gov – and in the private market is Sunday. After Feb. 15, people who do not have health insurance might be assessed a penalty when they file taxes next year. Help with health insurance enrollment will be available from 5 to 8 p.m. Thursday at Badger High School, 220 E. South St., Lake Geneva, and from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday at Elkhorn Middle School, 627 E. Court St. New tax forms – Form 1095-A – are being delivered nationwide to consumers who purchased health insurance

through the Marketplace in 2014 through the Affordable Care Act. An estimated 2,618 of the 13,000 uninsured people in Walworth County, enrolled at the Marketplace last year. As of Jan. 16, 3,697 Walworth County residents had enrolled this year. People who were uninsured in 2014 were charged a penalty of 1 percent of their household incomes or $95 per uninsured adult and $47.50 per uninsured minor-aged child, whichever is greater. In 2015, the penalty will increase to the greater of 2 percent of household income or $325 per uninsured adult or $162.50 per uninsured mi-

nor-aged child. People may complete IRS Form 8965 to see if they or anyone in their tax filing group qualifies for an exemption from the penalty. If so, they might not need to pay a penalty to the IRS for not having health insurance. Exemptions are granted for individuals who are uninsured for less than three months of the tax year, are illegal aliens, are incarcerated, are suffering financial hardship, have religious objections to insurance, are not required to file a federal tax return, are a member of an Indian tribe or for whom coverage costs 8 percent or more of their income. Residents can enroll at

Highway NN to be reconstructed this year Briefs County Highway NN from east of Bray Road through the Walworth County government campus will be reconstructed this year. The county Public Works Committee is scheduled to review bids and award the contract for the project in March. Preliminary utility work has begun to prepare for the roadwork, which is scheduled to begin in mid to late May and continue into early fall. The work will include new

pavement on the existing alignment for the section of County NN that will remain rural with gravel shoulders and drainage ditches – from east of Bray Road to the entrance to the county campus. An “urban” section that will include curb and gutter, a center two-way left turn lane, sidewalks on the south side, street lighting and terrace trees will be built through the county campus to east of Lakeland School and Lakeland Health Care Center. In

the urban section, pavement will be replaced and several driveways will be closed to improve vehicular and pedestrian safety, according to the county Public Works Department. Access to all county facilities and Aurora Lakeland Medical Center will be maintained throughout construction. However, travel could be stopped or slowed at times in the construction zone, according to the Public Works Department.

Lake Beulah Dam spillway to be replaced A project to replace the Lake Beulah Dam spillway is scheduled to begin this spring. The Walworth County Public Works Committee expects to award a construction contract for the work Monday. The county and the Lake Beulah Management District have been working for two years with the state Department of Natural Resources on a suitable plan to replace the failing structure, according to the county Public Works Department. The parties have

agreed to a spillway design that includes an interlocutory dam that will be operated by the lake management district except in times of emergency such as major storm events when the county would take over responsibility. As an integral part of County Highway J, the dam and spillway will continue to be owned and maintained by the county, according to the Public Works Department. A public information meeting to review the schedule,

staging and pier removals for the project and to answer any questions or concerns will take place from 6 to 7:30 p.m. March 12 at the Troy Town Hall, N8870 Briggs St., East Troy. The consulting engineer and contractor for the project and county staff will be on hand to meet with members of the public and owners of property adjacent to the project. Highway J will be closed during construction.

Input sought on plan for new county park The Walworth County Public Works Department will have a public information meeting about the proposed White River County Park master plan from 5 to 6:30 p.m. March 5 at Lyons Town Hall, 6339 Hospital Road, Lyons. The meeting will follow an informal, open-house format. Representatives from the Walworth County Public Works Department, the county Park Committee and the Southeastern Wisconsin

Regional Planning Commission will be on hand. Members of the Geneva Lake Conservancy, which is assisting the county with the development of the park master plan, also will attend. County residents, property owners, park users and individual with an interest or concern for the new county park are encouraged to attend and give comment to help development the master plan.

Restoration slated for 4-H clubs to present two county parks Music Fest The Walworth County Park Committee has approved land management plans for Natureland and Price parks. The plans, developed in partnership with the Kettle Moraine Land Trust, will guide county staff and volunteers on future land-related improvements to the parks. Both parks contain natural areas that need specific restoration and habitat improvements and evaluation strategies to document progress, according to the county Public Works Department. The restoration of the 5.1acre Sugar Creek fen area of Price Park will be worked on first. The fen hosts the best remaining assemblages of conservative plans in the park including two rare species – Ohio goldenrod and small-fringed gentian, according to the Public Works Department. Other Phase 1 improvements at Price Park include the picnic grove, lower grove and restored prairie areas. Natureland Park has two areas targeted for initial restoration – the west lakeshore habitat area and the control of oriental bittersweet, an invasive species that the state Department of Natural Resources requires to be controlled as a prohibited species. One large area has been identified in the park south of Territorial Road that contains oriental bittersweet and other populations likely exist elsewhere in the park that will have to be eliminated, according to the department.

The middle of Oregon was the perfect spot for the introduction of the 2015 Subaru Outback because it was just like going to a family reunion – everywhere you looked there were more Subaru Outbacks of all ages. We don’t know the actual numbers but after spending a few hours in the Bend, Oregon area one day, we would guess that the Outback has to be the most popular car in the area. It’s easy to see why so many people in Central Oregon are Outback drivers. This is a major outdoor recreation area with world class skiing, white water rafting, fishing, golfing, rock climbing and a multitude of other activities. The Subaru Outback is a perfect vehicle for these active people because of its utilitarian features and all-weather/terrain abilities, plus it’s a great everyday driver so owners can always be prepared to partake of the outdoors. The 2015 Subaru Outback, takes all the best parts of the first four generations and 20 years of experience and molds them into this latest iteration and then adds some great new features. Starting with a revised and significantly stiffer (51 percent) chassis, Subaru engineers have added a smoother, more efficient transmission, Active Torque Vectoring for greater agility and enhanced all-wheel drive with new X-Mode technology to expand its off-road

prowess. They packaged it in a stylish new body, with more interior space and luxury appointments. Then for the crowning touch they equipped the Outback with a couple of state-ofthe-art safety technology packages. We experienced the 2015 Subaru Outback in real world conditions, driving the on- and off-road in the Cascade Mountains near Bend and Sisters, Ore. The first thing we both commented on was how quiet this new car is. The new acoustical windshield, thicker acoustic panels, foam insulation and liquid-filled engine mounts created an extremely quiet interior space at all speeds. The quiet was accompanied by a very accommodating car-like ride and handling with none of the roughness often experienced in many SUV/crossover style vehicles. Most 2015 Subaru Outback buyers will opt for the base 175-horsepower four-cylinder Boxer engine with its horizontally-opposed cylinders. The double overhead cam engine, which is about 80 percent new, propels the Outback from 0 to 60 mph in 10.3 seconds according to Subaru tests. Fuel economy is rated at 25 mpg city, 33 mpg highway and 28 mpg combined. The numbers are impressive when you consider that all models are all-wheel drive. The only available transmission is Subaru’s efficient Lineartronic CVT (Continuously Variable Transmission). The

transmission is designed to electronically simulate six shift points and can be shifted manually with the console mounted shifter or using the steering wheel mounted shift paddles. While we found this to be a very nice drivable combination, it cried out for a turbocharger – which would have been especially helpful at the higher elevations. We both preferred the Outback 3.6R model, which has a 256-hp six-cylinder Boxer engine that produces a significant increase in performance. Zero to 60 mph takes only 7.3 seconds, making this a much better road car. Fuel economy is estimated at 20/27/22 mpg. The 3.6R also has a high-torque version of the Lineartronic CVT, derived from the Subaru WRX performance model. It electronically shifts with even more

noticeable shift points, making it feel more like a six-speed automatic. It also has steering wheel-mounted shift paddles and gated manual shift linkage on the center console. The CVT was especially impressive in off-road and on rough dirt roads where the unlimited ratios helped keep the power delivery smooth and at peak performance and efficiency. We also liked the precise, positive feel of the new electric assist steering system. All Outbacks are equipped with Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive with its new Active Torque Split. The system measures acceleration, steering angle and yaw rates and based on the driving conditions and wheel slippage, adjusts clutch controls to distribute torque to the wheels with the best traction. The 2015 Subaru Outback

is available in two models, the 2.5i and 3.6R. The 2.5i has three trim levels including the 2.5i, 2.5i Premium and 2.5i Limited with prices, after the destination charge, of $25,745, $27,845 and $30,845 respectively. The 3.6R is only available in the Limited trim and is priced at $33,845. Option packages include various combinations of Moonroof, Power Rear Gate, Navigation System, EyeSight, Blind Spot Detection & Rear Cross Traffic Alert and add from $1,695 to $3,390 (for all the features). Subaru has been something of a MVP in auto industry statistics the last few years showing unprecedented annual sales gains while much of the industry struggled to survive. Subaru has succeeded because they’ve been doing most everything right.

Last-second shot by Waterford sinks Comets

D-DHS wrestlers finish last in SLC tournament

D-DHS comes within two points of win; turnovers costly By Jennifer Cesarz CORRESPONDENT

The Delavan-Darien High School boys basketball team came within two points of beating Waterford, the Southern Lakes Conference second-place team Thursday at D-DHS. Turnovers ultimately cost the Comets the game as they committed 12, up from their recent games. “We struggled at taking care of the ball early and late in the game,” D-DHS head coach Bob Beighton said. “It was a departure from our last several games where our turnovers were under 10. We simply rushed our passes and were not strong enough with the ball early on and at the start of the fourth.” Waterford led through most of the low-scoring game until less than a minute in the third quarter when the Comets tied things up at 37-37. Starting the fourth quarter, Lucas DeLara hit a three-point basket to give the Comets their MICHAEL HALL Delavan Enterprise first lead of the game at 40-37.

By Jennifer Cesarz CORRESPONDENT

The Delavan-Darien High School wrestling team concluded its Southern Lakes Conference season at the conference tournament on Saturday in Wilmot. Burlington finished first at the tournament, followed by Elkhorn, Lake Geneva Badger, Waterford, Union Grove, Wilmot, Westosha Central and D-DHS. Ricardo Cruz, wrestling at 220 pounds, had the top finish for the Comets, coming in second. Gage Wuttke, at 126 pounds, finished fourth. At 182 pounds, Gerardo Martinez took fifth, and, at 195 pounds, Carlos Dominguez also finished fifth. Andres Flores finished in sixth place at 170 pounds, and Byron O’Brien also took sixth at 106 pounds. Cruz started his day with a bye, and then in the semifinal round won a 7-2 decision over Ruben Garcia of Badger. In his fight for first place, Cruz lost by fall at the four-minute mark to Hegeman Tiedt of Burlington. Wuttke started his day with a 4-2 decision over Kyler Moudy of Wilmot, and then lost to Jared Bird in the semifinal by a 5-0 decision. In the consolation semifinal, Wuttke pinned Kyle Kastenson of Union Grove in 3:54. Battling for third place, Wuttke lost a 5-1 decision to Moudy of Wilmot, whom he beat earlier in the day. Martinez went 2-2 on his way to a fifth-place finish, getting a bye in the consolation round and then beating Keith Tremeling of Westosha Central in the fifth-place match by fall at 4:48. Dominguez was also 2-2, receiving a bye and then beating Reid McNeil from Central in the fifth-place battle by a decision. The Comets start Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association regional wrestling on Saturday at Wilmot. Wrestling starts at 10:30 a.m.

until Jesse Collins took over for the Comets, getting a steal, converting on three free throws and hitting a three-point basket in a three-minute period, bringing the Comets within two points at 48-46. The Wolverines hit two free throws with just under two minutes left to go up four, and then Isaac Ramos scored for the Comets, making it 50-48. The Wolverines then made one more free throw, before the Comets tied it up at 51-51 on a three-point basket by Isiah Ramos with 25 seconds left in the game. Unfortunately for the Comets, a last second shot by Waterford with time expiring, found the bottom of the net, and the Wolverines went on for the 5351 win. Collins paced the Comets with 16 points, three rebounds and three steals. William Brown finished with 13 points, three rebounds and three assists. DeLara added nine points, and Isaac Ramos had eight. The Comets travel to Burlington Friday night for a 7 p.m. game.
