Albany police chief submits resignation By Tony Ends

CORRESPONDENT

Police Chief James Placek, who went on administrative leave Aug. 30, has resigned after 16 years full time with Albany’s police force. Village President Kim Blumer confirmed last Monday, Nov. 28, that Placek submitted his letter of resignation Nov. 22. Police Sgt. Robert Ritter has been overseeing Albany’s police department for three months, and he will continue to do so, Blumer said. “Officer Ritter has Albany’s law enforcement under control,” Blumer said, following a village personnel committee meeting Monday night, “and he is capable of handling the position. “The village is trying to ensure we have an efficient police staff. For the foreseeable future, we’re going to keep using this arrangement,” he said, with Ritter as officer in charge, rather than going immediately through another hiring process for a police chief. Placek replaced Albany’s longtime police Chief Bob Levitt, who retired after leading the department since October 1998. Previously, Levitt had also served with the Cary, Ill., police department for 23 years. Through associates last week, Placek said he did not want to make a public comment about leaving Albany’s police force. He was sworn in as chief March 14 but continued to get coaching

from Levitt into April. He then held the position of police chief for only four months. By state statute, the village board had to appoint a three-person police disciplinary commission during Placek’s absence, Blumer said. Placek’s letter of resignation went to that three-person panel, and the village attorney will present it to the board for action at their next meeting. Albany had a population of a little more than 1,000 in the 2010 census. Under Levitt, the police force operated with two full-time sergeants (Placek and Ritter), hiring part-time police for special events as needed. Personnel committee members of the board said Monday that they will ask the village clerk to update the website to reflect police staff changes. Police Officer Logan Lange, who started working with the police department in April 2014, has been assisting Ritter. In other village business Monday, the personnel committee discussed: *Gift cards to employees, partand full-time, and the PDC Committee; *Ways to track employees’ hours worked, use of a time clock, time card policies and core hours, all to better demonstrate accountability. Work supervisors and the village clerk are going to initiate changes for two months and report back to the committee.

Quentin, Kersten, and Spencer Vestin, area dancers, will be performing in The Nutcracker at the Wisconsin Union Theater on Dec. 17 and 18.

Spencer, Quentin, and Kersten Vestin, children of Paula and Chris Vestin, will be performing in Dance Wisconsin’s rendition of The Nutcracker in Madison on Saturday, Dec. 17, at 2 p.m., and on Sunday, Dec. 18, at 2 p.m. The ballet begins at the home of the Silberhaus family on Christmas Eve. Friends of Clara and Fritz have been invited for Christmas festivities. Clara’s uncle, Herr Drosselmeyer, appears with his handsome nephew, gifts, and a special nutcracker doll for Clara. After the party guests leave, Clara sneaks downstairs in search of her nutcracker and falls asleep on the sofa. Clara begins to dream that she is awakened to find herself surrounded by huge mice making mischief in the parlor. The Christmas tree begins to grow, and the nutcracker doll comes to life and battles with the mice. After the Mouse King is slain, Clara is transported to a fantasy land, where the Snow Queen and King perform for her. The spell that enchanted the nutcracker doll is broken, and he is transformed into a handsome prince. Clara and the prince travel together to Candyland. Spencer is dancing the roles of

Big Mouse and Russian. Quentin is dancing the role of the brother, Fritz, and Kersten is an understudy Bon Bon. This is a special year for Dance Wisconsin; JoJean Retrum is celebrating 40 years of her classic version of the original Nutcracker in Shannon Hall. The Tchaikovsky score will be performed by the Dance Wisconsin orchestra and conducted by Taras Nahirniak. The Monona Grove High School singers will accompany several pieces. Guest Artists are Gillian Murphy and Marcelo Gomes, principal dancers with American Ballet Theatre. They will be joined by the Dance Wisconsin Company and dancers from numerous southern Wisconsin studios. Many alumni from the past years have returned to perform in this wonderful holiday tradition. Ticket prices for adults range from $22 to $40 dollars. There is a $2 discount for seniors, and children are half price. To purchase tickets, visit the Wisconsin Union Theater Box Office at 800 Langdon Street, call (608) 265-ARTS, or visit http:// www/uniontheater.wisc.edu.

Students participate in mock interviews By Aurora Daniels CORRESPONDENT

Last week, the Juda School District held mock interviews for the senior class of 2017. The interviews were part of Senior Seminar, a required class that helps to prepare the soon-to-be graduates for life outside of high school. This activity centered on each student’s plans for the future. As part of an assignment in the class, students found a job advertisement that they would like to apply for in the future. The senior class then or-

ganized resumes, cover letters, and references specific to the occupation desired. After a week or two of class time devoted to covering all the materials necessary for an interview, the students were ready for the trial of the interview itself. Sandra Einbeck, the teacher of Senior Seminar at Juda High School, searched for community members and business owners available to hold the mock interviews. For each student, Einbeck tried to find a person who came from the

same field as the one that the student was applying for. Whether it be someone from a law office or a police chief, Einbeck found someone available to interview each student. Those mock interviews were held throughout last week. On those days, students arrived at school in their best dress and ready for their interviews. Each day, the students came into the interviews not knowing who would be conducting them. This situation was designed to ease some of the first-time jitters that interviews can cause and to inform the students of good tips to remember when participating in an interview. Once the formal interview was finished, the students were given feedback. They were informed of any negative things that they did, and they were given new ideas on how to fix them. Thank you to all who participated from the surrounding communities. The mock interviews educated and prepared the senior class of 2017 for the world outside of Juda High School.

Crowds of children and their parents lined up at the Albany Lions Club to sit on Santa’s lap and get a treat bag last Saturday. The event, called Snack with Santa, included a food stand, a shopping area, and face art. In addition to meeting Santa, children played games for a small cost. These included a Christmas wheel, wreath toss, sucker tree, and a toy toss. “This is an oppourtunity for children in the community to enjoy Santa and some games, have fun together, and contribute to the library,” said Kara Blue of the Albertson Memorial Library, which sponsored the event along with the Albany Lions. “The library provides the games and the food and coordinates the volunteers,” Blue said. “The Lions Club donates use of the building and help in the kitchen, and the village donates treat bags, which are free to every kid who visits Santa.”

MANAGE JET LAG

Before a long flight, set your watch to where you’re headed; it will help you start adjusting sooner. Going west, move your bedtime back and get up later in the day. Stay awake in daylight as long as you can when you arrive. Going east, try to sleep on the plane (if it is night where you’re going). When you land, stay awake through the day. Either direction, try to stay up during daytime. Get out in the sunshine; natural light helps reset your body clock. It is easier to keep awake than to force yourself to sleep. If you have a very important event, arrive at least a day early to be at your best. Bottom line, adjust to where you’re going before you leave and adapt when you arrive.

Just when we thought all was said and done with the election, there is a recount happening in Wisconsin. Green County is recounting by hand and started last Thursday, Dec. 1. It looks like there will be some very long days and hours put in to get the recount finished by the Dec. 13 deadline. Dec. 13 is the date of the next County Board meeting. The agenda is not posted yet at the time I am writing this, but it will be available on the county website usually a week or so before the meeting. If you look at the upcoming meetings on the website, there are a few committee meetings sprinkled among the Board of Canvass as they recount the votes. I was able to attend a Government Services Building Committee meeting on Nov. 29. I was amazed at the progress since the last one I attended. Exterior finishes are beginning to be discussed, samples were looked at, and wiring needs and placement for items like screens and speakers were considered. Driveway distances, passenger drop-off areas, and protective awnings are under scrutinization. In fact, it is proposed to move the building five feet in one direction so the turning radius of a passenger drop off area is more maneuverable for drivers. There are so many details, and it is exciting to see it coming together. The next meeting for the Government Services Building is scheduled for Dec. 15 at 8 a.m. It is expected to be a long meeting but full of information and floor-by-floor detail.

If you are interested in attending, more information will be available on the county website closer to the meeting date, including the agenda, location, and finalized time. If you have any questions or concerns about the Government Services Building, please contact your County Board Supervisor or any of the supervisors on the committee. This building is going to be an asset to all residents of Green County. Also happening in the county and more specifically in the towns and villages - and also related to elections - are the races for town and village boards. Last April, county board seats were on the ballot, and this April are the village and town board seats. I encourage you to take some time and think about our local government. Local government is where we can have a say in our communities and have influence over our local culture. Our towns and villages are where our local control begins, where we as individuals have the most say. Have you thought about running for a seat? I encourage you to do so. Thank you for the feedback and comments I have been receiving. I always welcome the chance to talk with fellow residents of Green County and find out what is important to you. If you have any questions or concerns, I encourage you to call your County Board Supervisor, or me. You can find a plethora of information on the county website, including supervisor information, meeting schedules and agendas, and more at www.co.green.wi.gov. You can reach me at 608-371-9074 or EricaRothGreenCountyBoard@ gmail.com.

UW-Extension Master Gardeners earn certification Thirty-seven Green County area residents were recently recognized for earning their Master Gardener Certification at the recent annual meeting of the Green County Master Gardeners Association. The main functions of the group are to serve the needs of all horticulturists in the Green County area, provide continuing education for its members, provide community services through volunteer activities, exchange gardening ideas, promote responsible and sound gardening practices, and provide a link between the community and UW-Extension. To earn the UW-Extension Master Gardener Certification, participants are required to complete 36 hours of classroom training. They must also complete at least 24 hours of community service before receiving their UW-Extension Master Gardener Volunteer Certification. Recertification is required annually, and to retain their certification, Master Gardeners must participate a minimum of 10 hours of educational development in addition to providing 24 hours of volunteer service each year. The South Central Wisconsin Master Gardeners Association was

formed in Green County in 2004 to provide Master Gardeners with opportunities for professional development and community service. Over 135 people have been trained since that time. This past year, members of the association volunteered 191 hours of community education and 1841 hours in community service projects throughout Green County. A few examples of their community involvement include working with the Swiss Historical Village Museum to establish a prairie planting, designing and planting a new garden at the Monroe Welcome Center, and providing square foot gardens for students in the New Glarus Schools. Master Gardener Volunteers were honored for achieving various levels of volunteer service. Marilyn Sandin-Ross was recognized for providing 150 hours of community service. Sally Bear, Jayne Butts, Mary Jackson, Ann Marie Ott, and Rae Wellnitz were recognized for 250 hours of volunteer service. Eugene Gessler and Gregg Smith were recognized for achieving 500 hours, and Michael Davis was honored for achieving 1,000 hours of community service.

Green County Steer Weigh-In coming in December The annual Green County Steer Weigh-In will be held on Saturday, Dec. 31, from 8 a.m. to 11 a.m. at Equity Livestock, located south of Monroe. In case of inclement weather, the snow date will be Saturday, Jan. 7. An announcement will be made over WBGR radio prior to 8 a.m. on the morning of Dec. 31 if the weigh-in will be rescheduled due to inclement

weather. All exhibitors who plan to show steers at the 2017 Green County Junior Fair must have their steers weighed and identified at this weigh-in. Each exhibitor can identify a maximum of five steers. U.S.D.A. radio frequency identification tags will be used to identify each steer for the county fair. Exhibitors will be required to provide

the premise ID number for the farm that the steers will be housed at. Green County Fair exhibitors must reside in Green County or be a member of a Green County FFA or 4-H Club to have their steers weighed and identified at this weigh-in. Steers must also be identified and weighed to be eligible to participate in the 2017 Green County Fair Meat Animal Auction, the Junior Steer Show, and the Steer Performance Class at the Green County Fair. A steer performance class will be held again in 2017. Steers entered in the performance class will be scanned for carcass merits and will not be sent for harvest during the fair. This will allow youth to exhibit the same steer in both the

performance and the market steer classes with the exception of the Grand and Reserve Champion Performance Steer. The grand and reserve champion performance steers will be selected based on their rate of gain, live show placing, and scanned carcass data. Exhibitors are reminded that steers must have a rate of gain of two or more pounds per day to be eligible to enter the performance contest or to be sold in the Green County Fair Livestock Auction. The minimum County Fair auction weights are 1,300 pounds for dairy steers and 1,100 pounds for all beef market steers. Steers must meet these minimum final weights at fair time to be eligible to sell in the livestock auction and to par-

ticipate in the steer performance contest. This weigh-in is only for steers that will be exhibited at the Green County Fair. Steers that will be exhibited only at the Wisconsin State Fair will be self-identified by exhibitors and are not required to attend this weigh-in. The Green County Beef Producers will be assisting with the weigh-in. Record books for the Green County Meat Animal Sale and fair rules will be distributed to all exhibitors at the weigh-in. If you have any questions regarding the weigh-in, contact Mark Mayer, Green County UW-Extension Dairy and Livestock Agent, at 608328-9440.

12:59 p.m., deputies responded to the intersection of State Highway 69 and County Trunk C for a semi versus pickup truck accident. Subsequently, it was discovered that a southbound tractor-trailer, operated by James S. Chipman, 64, of Pigeon, Mich., had collided with a pickup driven by Paul L. Warner, 63, of Oregon, Wis. Warner had been traveling eastbound on County C and disregarded the stop sign at the intersection when he was struck broadside. The resulting impact rolled the pickup and ejected Warner and his passenger, William D. Burdick, 35, of Madison, Wis. The semi continued south and overturned on the opposite shoulder. The semi operator was uninjured; however, Burdick was pronounced dead at the scene, while Warner was airlifted by Medflight to the UW Hospital in Madison. The highway was closed, and traffic was detoured for approximately five hours to facilitate the investigation and removal of the vehicles. Alcohol did not appear to be a factor in this collision, and the Wisconsin State Patrol Accident Reconstruction Unit is assisting in the investigation. Assisting agencies included the Monticello Police Department, the Monticello Fire Department, New Glarus EMS, the New Glarus Fire
