Boyceville ambulance awarded $60,000 Otto
Bremer Foundation grant for heart monitors
By LeAnn R. Ralph
BOYCEVILLE — The
Boyceville Community Ambulance
Service has been awarded a
$60,000 grant from the Otto
Bremer Foundation to purchase
two brand new heart monitors.
M a t t F e e n e y, a m b u l a n c e
service director, talked about the
Otto Bremer Foundation grant
and other grants received this
year at the Boyceville Community
Ambulance District’s December 10
meeting.
The ambulance service’s old
heart monitors will be replaced
with two “top of the line” heart
monitors, Feeney told the
representatives of the ambulance
district.
Ambulance crews will now have
two identical monitors, one for
each rig, he said.
The new heart monitors can
send information to a hospital
emergency room, and they are
sophisticated enough to be able
to take out the “artifacts” from
driving over bumpy country roads,
Feeney said.
Road noise can interfere with
the effectiveness of heart monitors,
he noted.
The new heart monitors can
also tell EMTs if the cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR)
chest compressions are deep
enough, can determine pulse rate,
and can determine the return flow
and monitor blood gases, Feeney
said.
Several ambulance district
members wondered how long the
new monitors could be expected
to last.
Feeney said since these are
top of the line monitors, he would
expect them to last for ten years.
In 2010, the Boyceville
ambulance service bought a
refurbished heart monitor for
$14,000, Feeney said.
“They’re spendy, but they’re
really important … we’ll have
them by the first of the year,” he
said.
“We’re very fortunate to have
this nice equipment,” Feeney said.
Numerous grants
Feeney told the ambulance
district representatives that the
Boyceville ambulance service had
received numerous grants in 2014.
One of those grants was for
$12,500 from the Community
Foundation of Dunn County.
Along with other grants, the
Boyceville ambulance service
purchased two power cots, one
for each ambulance, Feeney said.
The power cots cost $15,000
each, but they can save on back
injuries when trying to move
patients, Feeney said.
Dunn County also received a
radio grant for purchasing mobile
radios and will be switching to the
Wiscom frequency, he said.
Feeney said he had sent in a
request for eight portables and
one base station.
Glenwood City Council approves
purchase of new John Deere loader
is!
GLENWOOD CITY — New it
After months of deliberation and discussions, Glenwood
City’s Common Council approved
the purchase a new John Deere
Model 544 Loader from Nortrax
of Chippewa Falls during its regular monthly meeting held Monday, December 8.
The council voted 4-0 (council
members Ken Peterson and Nancy Hover were not in attendance)
to purchase the new loader for a
final cost of $129,670 and have it
financed through Hiawatha National Bank at 3.70 percent over
the next five years.
The new loader’s original purchase price of $154,670 was discounted after the city received
$25,000 in trade credit for its old
loader.
Mayor John Larson presented
a pair of financing proposals to
the council - the one from Hiawatha National Bank and the
other through John Deere Credit
at 2.75 percent for the same time
period.
“These are the two financing
options for the loader,” Larson
began bringing members’ attention to a pair of single sheet hand
outs.
“The first one is for 2.75 percent through John Deere Credit
and if you look at the other one
(sheet) it says 3.70 and that is
what Hiawatha is offering us (for
financing),” stated Larson.
“We will be looking at five annual payments with either option,” added Larson.
Each annual payment through
John Deere Credit would be for
$28,222.81 with the exception of
the final year’s payment which
would be $8.59 more. The interest portion of the payment for the
first year would be $3,579.95 and
would decrease each successive
year.
The yearly payment to Hiawatha National Bank would be
$28,995.96 with a final year payment of $29,007.92. Interest payments would start at $4,1816.66
in year one and decline to a fifthyear amount of $1,035.00.
“The total interest paid over
the five years and the difference
(between the two entities) comes
out to about $3,869,” the mayor
told the council.
“Personally I still lean toward
Hiawatha,” Larson continued. “It
comes out to about $65 per month
difference.”
“And maybe they won’t up
our rent on this place if we get it
through them,” Larson said jokingly.

GC Elementary students give gifts to those in need
By Kelsie Hoitomt
GLENWOOD CITY — Last Monday, 64 Glenwood
City Elementary students went shopping at Walmart
in order to pick up gifts for three children around the
Glenwood City, Boyceville and Spring Valley area for
WestCAP’s Holiday Gift program.
This is the second year that Mrs. Standaert’s first
grade class has gone shopping for a child through the
Holiday program at WestCAP.
This year accompanying her class was Ms. Lewis’
kindergarten grade class and Mrs. Lenz’s second
grade class.
Typically the students in the elementary buy a $5
gift for an exchange party with their peers, however,
this year the students were asked if they would like
to donate the money and buy for children in need
and they happily agreed.
One student donated $30 of her own money and
over the Thanksgiving break, she challenged her
family to match her donation. She successfully raised
another $150 to give to WestCAP.
On Friday, December 12, the students went to
WestCAP in Glenwood City to drop off their gifts for
the three families.
Each class had bags full of goodies with several
dolls, toys, sleeping bags and winter clothing to give.
The children were truly excited to be a part of helping
a family in need.
LIVE NATIVITY — The tradition continued as the Boyceville Ministerial Association once again
performed its Live Nativity Scene as part of the 14th annual Spirit of Christmas celebration on Saturday,
December 13 on Boyceville’s Main Street. A large crowd was on hand to witness the event and share
in Christmas songs and music. The 2014 cast members of the Live Nativity, pictured above, included
Cole and Megan Lauersdorf (Joseph and Mary), Easton Lauersdorf (Baby Jesus), Jared Nelson and
Steve Silvius (Angels), Sorena Martin and Kayleen Bartz (Shepherds), Darlene Booth, Brian Frieburg,
and Herb Dow (Wise Men), Emma Chich (The Star). Pastor Steve Boyd was the narrator. Musical
accompaniment was provided by Ginny Waller. —photo by Shawn DeWitt

BOYCEVILLE — EMTs in
Boyceville are expecting to move
into their new ambulance station
by January 1.
Matt Feeney, director of the
Boyceville ambulance service,
reported on the status of
construction on the new station
at the Boyceville Community
Ambulance District’s December
10 meeting.
Design Built is officially done
with the shell of the building,
Feeney said.
The inside of the building is
being framed up, and the wiring
is being installed, he said.
One company had planned to
donate the electrical work but due
to their own work schedule, were
unable to provide an electrician
right now, Feeney said.
Abe’s Electric out of Chippewa
Falls has agreed to be the
electrician for the job, he said.
Feeney, along with Andrew
Kissh, a lieutenant with the
ambulance service, are certified
Wisconsin electrician’s helpers.
Feeney said that he and Kissh
will be doing the electrical wiring
at the ambulance station and
then Abe’s Electric will inspect
the work.
“We both have experience with
wiring,” he noted.
The goal is to make it “move
in capable” by December 21, and
“we are making progress,” Feeney
said.
“It is coming along very well,”
he said.
Donations
Wal-Mart Distribution out
of Menomonie will be donating
“smart” televisions for the new
station, Feeney said.
Beds and chairs have been
ordered for the new station,
and the Boyceville Ambulance
Association will be paying for
the beds and chairs and donating
them, he said.
Feeney said he had also met
with the board of directors for a
foundation in Minnesota that was
founded by the parents of one of
Boyceville’s EMTs.
Foundation members had
approached the Boyceville
ambulance service and said they
wanted to donate money, he said.
Feeney said he expected to find
out in a day or two how much
the foundation would award to
Boyceville.
Ribbon cutting
Herb Dow, a trustee on the
Boyceville Village Board, is a
founding member of the Boyceville
ambulance service, Feeney said.
Dow is working on compiling
a list of all who have worked as
EMTs in Boyceville to invite them
to a ribbon-cutting ceremony, he
said.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony
will most likely be held at the end
of January or in February, he said.
A grand opening for the
general public will be held during
Emergency Medical Services week
in May, Feeney said.
The telephone number for
Boyceville’s new ambulance
station is (715) 643-3911, and the
fax number is (715) 643-3912.
The Boyceville Community
Ambulance District meets next
on January 14 at 7 p.m. following
the Boyceville Community Fire
District meeting.
By LeAnn R. Ralph
WHEELER — The Wheeler
Village Board approved a new
labor contract with employees at
the December 9 meeting.
Following a closed session
that lasted only a few minutes,
t h e W h e e l e r Vi l l a g e B o a r d
unanimously approved the new
contract for 2015.
Marlene Larson, village
trustee, noted that village board
members were pleased with the
job being done by Robin Goodell,
village clerk-treasurer, and Chris
Goodell, water operator, to keep
the village running smoothly.
The new contract reflects a
wage increase of 1.6 percent, the
maximum allowable by state law.
Wisconsin’s Act 10 prohibits
collective bargaining with public
employees for working conditions
and other benefits and only allows
bargaining for a wage increase
equal to the increase in the
Consumer Price Index (CPI) from
the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
In other business, the Wheeler
Village Board set the village’s
caucus for January 6 at 6 p.m.
The village board also approved
a two-year contract with the Dunn
County Humane Society.
The humane society contract is
based on a per-capita assessment
of $1.52 for 2015 and $1.63 for
2016.
Boyceville EMTs expect to move into
new ambulance station by January 1

For most voters in our district
the vacant Shoemaker State Senate Seat is the main attraction of
this year’s limited election palette,
as the seat is left open by Richard

determine if the 80-acre farm of
Claude and Louella McGee will be
allowed to detach from the village.

Department of Health Services
(DHS), influenza activity is
increasing in Wisconsin. There
have been approximately
190 influenza-associated
hospitalizations, including
children, adolescents and adults,
already reported in Wisconsin so
far this influenza season. Twothirds of those hospitalized with
influenza were aged 65 and older.
Influenza is a contagious
disease caused by influenza
viruses that infect the respiratory
tract (nose, throat, and lungs). The
illness can be mild to severe, and
sometimes fatal.
Symptoms usually begin
suddenly, with fever, headache,
dry cough, sore throat, nasal
congestion, fatigue, and body
aches. The best way to prevent
influenza is to get vaccinated
each year.
As long as flu viruses are
spreading and causing illness,
vaccination can still provide
protection against the flu. Flu
activity typically peaks between
December and February in the
United States, and the season
can last as late as May. While
there’s still time to benefit from
a flu vaccine, the sooner you get
vaccinated, the more likely you
are to be protected against the
flu when activity picks up in your
community.
SUBSCRIPTION RATES
1Yr. Dunn, St. Croix, Polk & Pierce
Counties $3000, $1700 for 6 months.
1 Yr. Elsewhere in WI & MN - $3500,
$ 00
19 for 6 months.
1 Yr. Elsewhere in continental U.S.-$4000,
$ 00
23 for 6 months.
At Newsstand ......................................$100
The Centers for Disease Control
(CDC) recommends a yearly flu
vaccine for everyone 6 months
of age and older as the first and
most important step in protecting
against seasonal flu viruses. A flu
vaccine offers the best protection
available against this serious
disease. Once vaccinated, it takes
about 2 weeks for the body’s
immune response to fully kick in.
Where Can I Get a Flu Shot?
Public Health still has influenza
vaccine available for people
who have no insurance, or have
Medicare or Medical Assistance.
Call the health department at
715-246-8330 to schedule an
appointment for a flu shot. Or call
your health care provider to get a
flu shot.
Other Ways to Avoid Getting
Influenza
•Wash your hands often with
soap and water, or use an alcoholbased hand sanitizer
•Cover your cough or sneeze
using your upper sleeve, try to
avoid touching your face with your
hands
•Don’t share drinking cups or
straws
service going out with tax bills
In the coming weeks, St. Croix
County Property owners may
see a flyer with their tax bills
to sign up for a free property
fraud protection service. This
free service is provided by the
Register of Deeds office to monitor
documents and receive notice of
activity affecting property title.
“This service is easy to sign up
for and offers a little extra peace
of mind with just a few clicks of
the computer mouse,” St. Croix
County Register of Deeds, Beth
Pabst said. “Participants can
choose whether to receive their
alerts via e-mail or over the phone.
A common property fraud
scenario involves a criminal
filing a bogus deed making it
appear that the actual owner had
transferred ownership of a parcel
to someone else. The criminal
then takes that deed to a bank,
fraudulently obtains a mortgage
and then disappears with a large
amount of money.
While it can happen to anyone,
perpetrators of property fraud
often prey on the elderly, people in
long term care facilities, absentee
property owners and owners who
spent large parts of the year
out of town. While these crimes
have yet to occur in St. Croix
County, property fraud is a serious
problem in some of our nearby
states.
“The best protection we can
offer against property fraud is
proactive protection. This service
is making St. Croix County less
attractive to criminals and is in the
best interest of the community,”
Pabst said. Pabst hopes everyone
takes advantage of this service to
protect their investment.
If you do not receive a flyer
you can sign up online at www.
propertyfraudalert.com and using
the drop-down arrow to select
St. Croix, WI from the list. If
you have more questions please
contact the Register’s office 715386-4650 or [email protected].
The free service and database
are managed and maintained by
Fidlar Technologies, the county’s
software provider for land records.

Most of us know who the Beach Boys are, but if you are young and
missed their music over the last half of a century, they are a musical
group from California that was started in 1961 by the three Wilson
Brothers, a cousin and a friend. They had many hits.
Paula and I accompanied Bruce and Lana Everts of Luck to a Beach
Boys concert Friday evening in Hinckley, Minnesota. Their songs and
the slide show that accompanied brought back many memories of the
60s. Many of their lyrics were about surfing and fast cars. The audience
was asked how many men were in love with their cars, and apparently
everyone in the building responded.
Americans have a love affair with their automobiles and for me it was
my 1961, 390, four barrel, dual points, solid lifters, three and the tree
with overdrive, and a rag top. Its 375 horsepower was the fastest thing
around. I took it to a drag strip in New Brighton, MN and it did over a
hundred miles an hour in the quarter mile run in less than 14 seconds.
It was the fastest, until the 409 Chevrolets came out and that is one
of the songs the Boys made famous. “She’s real fine, my 409, when I
take her to the track she really shines, She always turns in the fastest
time. My four-speed, dual-quad, posi-traction 409.”
That song and others sure brought back a lot of old memories, and
that is what life is all about.
Speaking of memories, and that is what Christmas is all about, too.
Getting together with family and friends to celebrate the birth of Christ.
I am wishing you all a happy and blessed Christmas.

In loving memory of Phil Milune,
who passed away 19 years ago,
December 24, 1995.
In Memory of Emil Swanepoel,
Marvell Swanepoel Serier, and
Michael Swanepoel. How strange
it is that you all died in December,
during the Christmas season.
Mom and Michael you have been
gone two years already; and Dad
you have been gone for 44 years!!
When I must leave you for a while,
please do not grieve and shed wild
tears and hug your sorrow to you
through the years.
But start out bravely with a gallant
smile, and do all things the same. Feed
not your loneliness on empty days, but
fill each waking hour in useful ways.
Reach out your hand in comfort and
cheer and I, in turn, will comfort you
and hold you near. And never, never
be afraid to die, for I am waiting for you
in the sky.
LOVE, THERESA, TYLER, EMILY &
KYNSLEE, AND DAKOTA WHO IS
WITH YOU IN HEAVEN
Michael – you were a veracious
reader. Isn’t it great to now know
everything!
Mom – Your crown must be heavy
from all the jewels in it representing all
the good things you did here on earth –
for your kids and for others. I can see
you now in the heavenly choir singing
praise to God.
Dad – you always loved your kids so
much, and now one of us is with you.
Some day we will all be together
again.
Your presence we miss
Your memories we treasure
Loving you always
Forgetting you never.

Please try to understand,
that an angel came and called my
name
and took me by the hand.
The angel said my place was ready
In heaven far above
and that I’d have to leave behind
all those I dearly love
So when tomorrow starts without me
don’t think we’re far apart,
for every time you’ll think of me
you will find me in your heart.
We love and miss you so very much
Merry Christmas Dakota

THINK PURPLE - Instead of dressing in purple in support of the Vikings game November 21st, the
students of Glenwood City supported a different cause, Epilepsy Awareness. With November being
National Epilepsy Awareness month, Glenwood City High School students grades 9-12 dressed in
purple to raise awareness on the subject. Senior, Megan Samens encouraged all students throughout
the week to wear purple in support for the cause. Megan encouraged the students as part of her senior
project topic on the importance of public awareness of Epilepsy. Along with wearing purple, Megan
also sold 100 Epilepsy Awareness support rubber bracelets to raise money for the cause. She ended
up selling out of the bracelets and raising over $200 in proceeds. All the the money was donated to the
National Epilepsy Foundation. —photo submitted

Bulldog boys finish 0-2 against Unity Eagles and Colfax Vikings
By Kelsie Hoitomt
The Boyceville boys basketball
team took a road trip to Unity
last Monday night and then they
were home Friday to host Colfax.
Both contests ended in a loss for
the Bulldogs.
Unity road trip
The Eagles are on top of their
Lakeland-West conference this
season and they took the win,
but the Bulldogs were able to
stay neck and neck except for one
quarter in the 45-33 final.
That one quarter that was a
game changer happened to be the
first as the Bulldogs only scored
one point in the entire eight
minutes, which came from a free
throw by Sam Hellmann.
The Eagles posted ten
unanswered points to set them
on pace for the victory.
The Bulldogs were able to
pull it together and play some
basketball in the second quarter
with nine baskets made for a total
of 18 points.
Unity stayed consistent on the
court with 13 of their own scored,
which gave them a five point lead
of 24-19.
After the third quarter, the
Bulldogs trailed by four in scoring
with six points posted on their side
and ten from Unity.
That pace remained the same
throughout the remainder of the
game with the Bulldogs scoring
eight final points to the Eagles’ 11.
The Bulldogs went the entire
game with no three-pointers
scored. They posted 13 doubles
and had seven free throws.
Brady Schutts led the team in
points scored with 11 from five
doubles and one free throw. Mitch
Leach followed with seven from
three doubles and he was one for
one at the line.
Hunter Anderson finished
the night with five points from
two doubles and one free throw.
Hellmann ended up with two free
throws and one double. And Justin

McIntyre each had two.
Defeated at home
The Bulldogs fell to 0-3 in the
Dunn-St. Croix after the Vikings
beat them 43-36 last Friday night.
The Bulldogs trailed by six
points at the end of the first
quarter with the score at 7-13.
Schulz was hot from the arc
with three triples scored in the
game including one in the first
quarter, one in the third and then
one in the fourth.
His triple along with a double
from McIntyre and Hellmann
accounted for the Bulldogs’ seven
points.
The second quarter was a wash
with both teams posting seven
points so the Bulldogs walked
into the locker room at the half
trailing by six points with the
score at 14-20.
The aggressive play heated up
in the quarter with more fouls
called. The Bulldogs were on the
line once with one basket scored
from Schutts.
The Vikings took ten shots
themselves with five making it
through the hoop.
Micadin Kahl, Anderson and
Leach each had a double in the
quarter as well.
Out of the half, the scoring
remained consistent with the
points ending in a tie again with
both teams posting nine for a 2923 score at the end of the third
quarter.
The Bulldogs’ nine points were
scored on a three and a double
from Schutts, a second triple from
Schulz and a free throw by Leach.
The game ended with the
Bulldogs posting their best quarter
with 13 points. The Vikings held
their edge over them with 14 of
their own scored.
Leach and Schutts scored ten
points between the two of them
with a double and a triple from
Schutts and then Leach landed
three free throws and a double.
Leach was fouled a handful
of times, which gave him six
opportunities at the line and he
was successful with four.
As a team, the Bulldogs were
under 50 percent at the line with
five of their 12 shots actually
counting for points.
Schutts led the team in the
points with 11 from one free throw
and then two doubles and his two
triples. Schulz followed with nine from
his three triples. Then it was Leach

for Thursday, December 18.
Following that game, they will
be off until December 29 and 30,

Lady Bulldogs finish 0-2 after road trips to Somerset and Glenwood City
The Lady Bulldogs played two
games this past week and the
outcome was not in their favor as
they lost to Somerset last Tuesday
and then to Glenwood City on
Thursday.
Their week started off with the
road trip to Somerset, which ended
in a 50-28 final.
The Bulldogs trailed by just
two points in first quarter with
the score at 9-7 after Brooklyn
Hellmann hit a three pointer and
Morgan Kuhn and Cassie Malean
each took shots from under the
net.
In the second quarter, the
Bulldogs scored just two points
over the Spartans’ eight for a 17-9
deficit at the half.
Shyanne Marlett and Madysn
Riek were both fouled and given
two shots with a basket a piece
being scored for the Bulldogs’
points.
They improved their offense
greatly in the second half with ten
points scored in the second quarter
and nine then in the fourth.
Somerset however, upped their
game as well with 15 points in the
third and 16 in the final.
Scoring in the third for the
Bulldogs were Riek, Marlett and
Peterson.
Riek had two free throws and a
double. Peterson shot the second
triple of the game and a free throw
and Marlett had one shot from off
the glass.
Kuhn was an offensive presence
in the fourth quarter with a
free throw and then two doubles
scored.
Riek again was fouled and
scored both of her shots and
Marlett had one basket for the
team’s nine final points.
All together, the Bulldogs put
up seven doubles, two triples and
they finished eight for 17 at the
free throw line.
Kuhn and Riek led in points
with seven each. Kuhn had the
three doubles and one free throw
and Riek had five out of ten free
throws and a double.
Marlett finished with five
points from two doubles and one
free throw. Peterson followed with
four points from one triple and
one free throw. Hellmann had her

began in the second quarter with
several fouls called.
Peterson drained a three
pointer for the Bulldogs’ first
points of the quarter and then
Kuhn was fouled twice with two
points coming from that.
Marki Lagerstrom was then
grabbed and fouled, which gave
her two shots on the line and she

Riek was the first player to
reach the hoop in the third quarter
and then Hellmann followed with
a free throw shot.
The Bulldogs then closed the
gap in the score when Kuhn hit

put them down 24-22 with under
40 seconds left to play.
Peterson then was fouled on
the rebound with just over two
seconds left and she made one shot
for a four point deficit of 27-23.

By Kelsie Hoitomt
The Glenwood City girls
basketball finished 1-1 in games
last week with a loss to Cameron
on Monday, December 8 and then
a conference win on Thursday
against Boyceville.
Their border battle against the
Bulldogs was an intense game
with aggression on the court
and in the stands with hoots and
hollers as fouls were called or
missed.
The Toppers led in the first
quarter 11-4 after Jenesa Klinger
scored the first shot and Moriah
Kuehndorf followed.
Megan Samens was the first
player fouled and she made one
basket to give the Toppers a 5-0 led

with only 2:30 left to play.
The Bulldogs scored their first
basket following the foul, but
Klinger landed a three pointer to
bring their lead back up.
The quarter ended with the
Bulldog’s scoring their second
double for their four points.
The second quarter started
with Kuehndorf scoring the first
basket.
This was the only shot made by
the Toppers until the final seconds
when Jennifer Kopacz let the ball
fly from behind the arc for three.
The ball handling was very poor
throughout the second quarter
with turnover after turnover
caused by Boyceville.
The Toppers themselves were
able to get their hands on the ball
a few times, but the quarter score
did go to the Bulldogs with a 7-5
difference in points.
Out of the half, the Toppers led
by five with the score at 16-11.
Samens was then fouled as she
drove the ball to the hoop for the
first points of the quarter.
The Bulldogs went on a scoring
run with three players fouled and
then two threes were dropped,
which put them down by four at
the end of the third.
The fourth quarter started
with the score at 27-23, but the
Bulldogs closed that gap after two
players scored back to back lay ups
for a tied ball game.
This was the only time the
Bulldogs had an edge over the
Toppers the entire game. They
gained their lead back on a basket
under the hoop from Becca Moll.
Kopacz landed two foul shots
for the team and Kuehndorf
knocked in a double and a foul shot
to put the score at 43-34.
The game ended with Klinger
on the line with two foul shots and
she made both for the 45-36 final.
As a team, the Toppers scored
13 doubles, 13 free throws and
two triples.
Kopacz led the game in points
with 15 from three doubles, one
triple and she finished with six
free throws out of eight made.
Kuehndorf followed with 12
points from five doubles and two
free throws. Klinger then had
nine points from one triple, two
doubles and she went two for two
at the line.
Samens finished with five
points from one double and three
free throws and Moll and Gabby
Peterson each had a double.
In Cameron, the Toppers
managed to hold their own for the
most part, but they still lost 69-46.
Cameron finished with a
perfect 12-0 season last year in
their Lakeland-Central conference
with a run at the Sectional
Championships until they were
beat by Regis.
The Toppers started the game
down by six with the score at 15-9
in the first quarter.
Kopacz knocked down two
doubles and Kuehndorf and
Samens each had one as well as
a free throw from Megan.
The second quarter was the
game changer with Cameron
really stepping up their offense.
They posted 19 points against
the Toppers’ five for a 20 point
difference at the half of 34-14.
The Toppers came out of the
half playing really good ball with
16 points scored in both the third
and fourth quarters.
H o w e v e r, C a m e r o n w a s
outstanding with 24 points of their
own scored in the third quarter
alone for a 58-27 score.
In the third, Kuehndorf lit up
the hoop with two doubles, one
three and one free throw. Kopacz
also knocked down her first three
after scoring a double.
Peterson had two free throws
and Moll had one to finish up the
Toppers’ 16 points.
In the final eight minutes,
Kuehndorf continued to let it rain

with two triples and a free throw
for seven of their 16 points.
Klinger landed her first shots
as well with a double and a triple
and then Samens and Kopacz each
had a double.
On the court, the Toppers
posted five triples and 12 doubles.

despite the loss.
They attempted to take their
first win on Friday night, but they
were defeated in the long run by
Plum City/Elmwood with that
final score at 61-52.
Home against Mondovi
The Toppers kept the game
fairly clean with only four foul
shots taken by Mondovi in the
first half.
That number tripled in the
second half, but in order to get the
ball back in their possession in the
fourth quarter, the Toppers needed
to commit fouls.
The game could have easily
gone the other direction, but the
shots were not in the Toppers’
favor with countless attempts
either hitting the rim or bouncing
in and out of the hoop.
The Toppers only trailed by one
point in the fairly slow offensive
first quarter. They posted eight
points against Mondovi’s nine with
Todd Petersen, Marcus Kadinger,
Kip Wallace and Jake Hierlmeier
each shooting a double.
The second quarter was a
completely different ball game.
The Buffaloes turned up their
momentum and began to play
aggressively on both sides of the
ball.
They scored 11 points before
the Toppers finally put a shot in,
which was a three by Wallace that
put the score at 11-20 with just
under three minutes left to play
in the half.
Mondovi’s Greg Poeschel landed
three triples in the quarter alone
to give the Buffaloes the push
they needed to take a 24-14 lead
at the half.
Hierlmeier let go of the ball
near mid court as the buzzer rang
for the team’s second basket and
final three points of the quarter.
Out of the half, Mondovi
continued with their fast tempo,
which put four points on the board
within the first minute.
Kadinger managed to drive a
shot to the basket for the Toppers’
first score of the third quarter.
Hierlmeier followed with two back
to back three point shots with
under five minutes to play.
With less than two minutes
on the clock, the Toppers were
trailing 22-33 with the majority of
their time spent on defense.
They scored ten points in the
third quarter with eight coming
from Hierlmeier after he drained
two free throws.
Mondovi put up 11 points of
their own for a 35-24 lead going
into the final eight minutes of play.
The fourth quarter started
with Petersen driving in the first
basket. He was fouled along the
way and was brought to the line
for one free throw. He made the
basket for three team points.
Four minutes later, he was
fouled again and scored both
shots, which brought the game to
within five points, 34-39.
The Toppers were applying
good pressure defensively, but
Buffaloes were still able to get
shots off to keep their lead.
The clock began to dwindle
down in time so more fouls needed
to be called on the Toppers in order
to get the ball back, which put the
score at 34-41.
Hierlmeier landed a three to
put the score back within five and
then he was scored a double and
was fouled on the trip in for a 4045 deficit.
Every time they scored,
Mondovi answered back. Kadinger
hit at the three from the top of the
arc to put the team down by four
and then Hierlmeier landed one as
the buzzer rang for the 49-46 final.
Hierlmeier kept the team in the

Against the Plum City/Elmwood
Wolves co-op, the Toppers started
out strong with 14 points scored
in the first quarter for a tied ball
game.
They fell behind in the second
quarter by just three points as the
Wolves outscored them 15 to 12.
Those three points turned into
six points when they finished the
second half with 11 points scored
against the Wolves’ 14 for a 37-43
score going into the final eight
minutes.
That three point deficit in the
quarter was a constant as the
fourth quarter ended with the
Toppers trailing in points 15-18
for the nine point difference in the
final score of 61-52.
“We again were plagued by
too many turnovers and poor
shooting. They again made the
shots down the stretch and we did
not. They (Toppers) played very
hard and did a lot of nice things
at times, but still trying to work
on those wrinkles and execute
better,” explained coach Tristan
Kittilson.
On the court, Petersen and
Kadinger led in points scored
for their team with 13 each.
Hierlmeier followed with 12,
Wallace had seven, Tyler Woodruff
had three, Mrdutt had two and
Norenberg and Allen Croes each
had a free throw.
The Toppers were in Clear Lake
on Tuesday night (Dec 16) and
then they will be back home this
Thursday, December 18 against
St. Croix Central.

Boyceville wrestlers lose home opener to Clear Lake
BOYCEVILLE — Despite the
strategic moves of it’s coaches,
the Boyceville wrestling team
could not overcome some key absences due to injuries and illness
as it fell to Clear Lake 38-31 in
its home dual opener Tuesday,
December 9.
In a battle of state-ranked
squads (Clear Lake is ranked
fifth in the first 2014-15 D3 poll
and Boyceville is seventh), the
Bulldogs were without senior Tyler Stroo, due to the flu, and junior Jake Lake, who was nursing
an injured ankle, which forced
head coach Jamie Olson and his
long-time assistant Corey Day to
bump up several of their wrestlers a weight class in order to
compensate and give the Bulldogs their best chance for victory.
Clear Lake, however, took ad-
vantage of Boyceville’s depleted
line-up and scored some key pins
to take the win.
“Overall, they out wrestled
us,” said head coach Jamie Olson
about Clear Lake’s win.
“We had our chances in a
couple of matches,” added Olson.
“We need to continue working
hard and improving on our positioning.”
The Warriors won the dual’s
opening two matches.
Freshman Noah Weiczorek
put Clear Lake on the scoreboard
first with a 9-0 major decision
over the ‘Dogs Jake Erickson at
220 pounds.
Mitch Lien, the Warriors’
state-ranked
220 pounder,
moved up to heavyweight and
scored a late second-period pin on
Brandon Windsor to give Clear
Lake an early 10-0 advantage.
Boyceville would erase that
deficit in the next two matches
and knot the dual at 10 aside.
Second-ranked Dyllon Johnson, the younger brother of reigning state champion Micah Johnson, made a successful home
debut as he dominated fellow
freshman Ryan Anderson 13-1 at
106 pounds, to score the Bulldogs
first four points of the dual.
Senior Austin Wolfe, a returning state place winner and
also ranked second at his weight
class, stuck the Warriors’ Nick
Elmer at the 2:24 mark of the
pair’s 113-pound match. The pin
earned Boyceville six team points
and a 10 all deadlock.
Clear Lake would again take
the lead with wins in the following two matches - Freshman
STUCK — Freshman Cody Frederick (on top) scored six points for Boyceville when he pinned Clear
Lake’s Blake Johnson just 56 seconds into the pair’s match at 138 pounds Dec. 9. Boyceville, however,
dropped its home opener 38-31 to Clear Lake. —photo by Shawn DeWitt

Gabe Colbeth nipped the Bulldogs Brock Swenson 19-7 at 120
pounds and George Paulzine followed at 126 pounds with a firstperiod pin of Boyceville freshman
Jason Swanepoel.
Boyceville responded with its
own back-to-back wins.
Seventh-ranked James Palmer slide up a weight class and
earned a 10-4 win over Zach Elmer at 132.
Another promising Boyceville
freshman, Cody Frederick, needed just 56 seconds to pin Warrior
sophomore Blake Johnson in the
138-pound match and even the
team scores at 19 points each.
Holding true to form, the Warriors claimed wins in the next
two matches and a 29-19 lead.
Alex Colbeth pinned Dylan
Lamm at 3:28 of the 145-pound
match and Brandon Aasmundrud
followed with a 13-5 major deci-
sion over Bulldogs’ freshman Justin Malean at 152.
Over the next two matches,
Boyceville was able to forge its
first and only lead.
The Warriors gave state champion and top-ranked Micah Johnson a free pass. After Johnson
had moved up to 160 pounds,
Clear Lake coaches decide to forfeit the match to the Boyceville
sophomore.
170-pound freshman Garrett
Joles, ranked sixth at that weight
class, then gave the Bulldogs a
two-point lead, 31-29, with a second-period pin fall against Clear
Lake senior Mitch Paulson.
Heading into the second-to-the-last match, senior Logan
McAbee-Thomas looked to put
the dual in the Bulldogs’ win column with a pin at 182 pounds.
Instead, Andrew Johnson scored
the pin at 3:00 to help the War-
riors retake the lead 35-31.
In the final match at 195
pounds, Ian Ruble held off a rally by Boyceville’s Alex Lovett to
score a 6-2 win and secure a 3831 Clear Lake victory.
“We had great performances
from Dyllon Johnson, Austin
Wolfe, James Palmer, Cody Frederick, and Garrett Joles,” said
Olson.
“This was a tough loss but how
you bounce back is a the key to
being a good team,” concluded
Olson. “I think our kids will be
fine.”
Boyceville, who competed in
the Dells Duals this past Saturday (see related story), will wrap
up its pre-Christmas schedule
on the road, traveling to Chetek-Weyerhaeuser/Prairie Farm
Thursday (Dec. 18) and to Osceola for an invitational on Saturday
(Dec. 20).
out a four-win tournament. Dyllon opened with a trio of pins.
He stuck Laconia’s Dylan Jacob
in 1:05, followed that with a 43
second fall of Bailey Lawinger
of Mineral Point before getting
a third-period pin against Nolan
Kraus of Stoughton. Dyllon lost
his only match of the day in the
next round when he fell 15-0 to
fellow freshman Benji Peak of
Elkhorn (ranked sixth in Division 1). Johnson received a forfeit
against DeForest to finish his
tournament.
Senior Austin Wolfe began and
ended his tournament with a pair
of falls and forfeits at 113 pounds.
The only blemish was a middle
round loss of 7-1, to Stoughton’s
Brandon Klein.
Wolfe stuck Laconia’s Zachary
Foth in the first round and Elkhorn’s Jayce Coffey in the fourth
round and received forfeits in his
second and fifth round matches.
Senior Logan McAbee-Thomas
went 3-1 on the day at 182 pounds
with a fall over Cowan Mulder of
Laconia, 12-8 decision against
Kyle Juedes of Mineral Point and
a forfeit in the Stoughton dual.
He lost to Elkhorn’s Keaton Verhoeven by fall.
Heavyweight Brandon Windsor scored victories in his first
three matches, all via falls including a 12 second pin of Laconia’s Taylor Stafford in the firstround dual. Windsor was pinned
in his final two matches to finish
3-2.
Brock
Swenson
(120),
James Palmer (126/132), Tyler
Stroo (132/138), Cody Frederick (138/145), and Alex Lovett
(170/182) each finished 2-3. Jordan Morse was 2-2 at 160 pounds.
Freshman Garrett Joles (knee)
and senior Jake Lake (ankle) did
not wrestle in the Dells Duals
due to injuries.
Boyceville drew Laconia in
the first round of competition.
The Bulldogs won nine out of ten
bouts from 285 pounds to 160
pounds and dominated with a 5521 win. Logan McAbee-Thomas
(182), Brandon Windsor (285),
Dyllon Johnson (106), Austin
Wolfe (113), Tyler Stroo (138),
Cody Frederick (145), and Justin
Malean (152) all registered pins.
James Palmer had a 11-3 major
decision at 132 pounds.
Seventh-ranked
Boyceville
and third-ranked Mineral Point
each won seven matches when
they tangled in round two but the
Bulldogs’ had four pins and a pair
of forfeits that help boost them to
a 39-29 win. Boyceville ran out
to a 30-10 lead as Jake Erickson,
Brandon Windsor, and Dyllon
Johnson each won on falls and
Austin Wolfe and Jason Swanepoel earned forfeits.
But the Pointers came roaring
back with five straight wins from
132 to 160 including Pittz overtime win against Micah Johnson
to cut the Bulldogs lead to just
one at 20-29.
Alex Lovett and Logan McAbee-Thomas would stop the
streaking Pointers cold and give
Boyceville the win in the final two
matches. Lovett pinned at 170
pounds and McAbee-Thomas won
a 12-8 decision at 182 pounds.
Stoughton would hand Boyceville its first loss of the day when
the Bulldogs and Vikings met in
round 3 for a crossover match between Pool A and B competitors.
Boyceville crafted an early
12-3 advantage with a pins by
Brandon Windsor (285) and Dyllon Johnson (106). Stoughton,
however, would win the next six
matches to take a 30-12 lead.
It would not be until Micah
Johnson scored a pin over Joe
Jensen at 152 pounds that Boyceville was able to put some
more points on the board. Jordan
Morse earned a 12-0 major decision at 160. But Stoughton took
two of the final three matches for
a 42-28 win.
“Drawing Stoughton in the
crossover match was a great measuring stick for our kids,” said Olson. “They are a very solid team
with some outstanding individuals.”
Returning to Pool B action
in the fourth round, Boyceville
would again find itself on the
short end of the score in a 46-24
loss to eventually pool titlist Elkhorn.
Boyceville trailed the entire
match and found itself down 31-9
after eight matches before Micah
Johnson won a decision at 152,
Alex Lovett pinned at 170 and
Noah Novotney drew a forfeit at
195 pounds.
Boyceville would find its winning ways in the fifth and final
round.
The Bulldogs jumped on DeForest early and sprinted to a
33-0 lead with pins from Brock
Swenson (120), James Palmer
(126), and Cody Frederick (138),
and two forfeits (106 and 113).
Micah Johnson and Jordan
Morse would tack on Boyceville’s
final points with pins at 152 and
160 pounds respectively for a
45-6 advantage. DeForest closed
the match with five straight wins
including two by fall and another
by major decision for a final tally
of 45-28.
A junior varsity tournament
was held the evening prior to the
duals and Boyceville had three
champions crowned. Zach Smith
(152), Tyler Krueger (145), and
Jason Swanepoel (126) finished
atop their weight classes. Brandon Hakanson and Jerod Nelson
finished second, Gavin Olson and
Alec Schaffer placed third, and
Tanner Anderson took fourth.
Bulldog grapplers go 3-2 at Dells Duals
WISCONSIN DELLS — The
Dells Duals Classic has rapidly
become one of the premiere early
season wrestling tournaments in
the state.
This year’s tournament field
swelled to 28 teams in five different pools and featured eight state
ranked teams from across all
three divisions including Boyceville, ranked seventh in this season’s first Wisconsin Wrestling
Online poll.
For the second straight year,
the Bulldogs, seated seventh in
the first Division 3 rankings of
the season, finished second in
their pool. Boyceville went 3-2
in duals at the 2014 tournament
held Saturday, December 13 at
the Chula Vista Resort in Wisconsin Dells.
Boyceville competed in Pool
B and finished 3-1 in the roundrobin format with wins over
third-ranked Mineral Point, DeForest, and Laconia (those three
finished third through fifth respectively). The Bulldogs suffered their lone loss of pool play
to eventual champion and Division 1 ranked Elkhorn.
Boyceville also lost to Stoughton, ranked fourth in the Division 1 poll, in a Pool A-B crossover match. Stoughton defeated
Spring Valley/Elmwood to take
the Pool A title.
Pools A and B featured the topranked squads of the dual tournament and included a crossover
match for each of the five teams
in those two pools. The remaining
three pools (C-E) consisted of six
teams each.
“I was very pleased with the
response our kids showed after
the disappointing match against
Clear Lake (on Thursday),” said
Jamie Olson, Boyceville head
coach.
“We came out with a lot of intensity in that first dual and it
carried throughout the day,” con-
tinued Olson.
“I had a chance to match up
our best kids against some of the
best kids in the state,” Olson added. “When you can do that early
in the year and get a feel for what
our weaknesses are, we can get
after them now and be ready for
the push at the end (of the season.”
Five Bulldog grapplers finished the tournament with winning records against some of Wisconsin’s best.
Dyllon Johnson (106), Austin Wolfe (113) and Micah Johnson (152/160) each finished the
tournament at 4-1 to lead the
Bulldogs. Logan McAbee tallied
three wins in four matches at 182
pounds and Brandon Windsor
had a 3-2 mark at 285 pounds.
Micah Johnson opened the
tournament wrestling at 160
against Laconia’s Zach Coffeen (a
state qualifier at 145 last February) and earned a 12-5 win. Micah dropped back to his usually
152-pound slot where he edged
Konnor Mohr of Elkhorn 7-4 and
pinned both Bret Williams of DeForest and Joe Jensen in under
a minute.
Johnson’s lone loss, his first
in over a year and only his second of his young high school career, came in the Bulldogs’ dual
against Mineral Point.
The 152-pound match pitted
junior Scott Pittz, ranked number
one in the Division 3, 160-pound
weight class, against Johnson,
who is a defending state champ
and top-ranked wrestler in the
early 152-pound poll after taking
third at state last season in the
same weight class.
Johnson and Pittz wrestled to
a 2-2 deadlock at the end of regulation. In the first overtime, Pittz
scored a takedown for a sudden
victory, 4-2.
Micah’s younger sibling, freshman Dyllon Johnson, also carved

The Red Brush Gang! “The Best stories of 2014”
that one or the other of us puts
Hello friends,
We are wild, crazy, hunt
harder then a lot of people that
I know, and seldom go to bed
before 3:00 a.m. What I am
talking about is the deer camp
that my father the late Robert
Walters started back in the late
50’s in northern Juneau County
and that well over 20 of us call
home at some point during
Wisconsin’s nine-day deer gun
season.
Tuesday, November 25th
High 26, low 12
This part of the world
received a horizontal snowstorm
yesterday that dumped 7-inches
of snow and would make deer
hunting conditions brutal for
a variety of reason for several
days.
One! Visibility in the woods
and marshes was 5-feet to
100-yards due to every tree and
willow bush holding onto the
snow. Two, The Red Brush Gang
does deer drives the entire last 7
days of the season and because
the snow was often falling onto
our rifles, the actions on our
rifles were freezing up and often
could only be thawed at the end
of the day by our trucks exhaust
so that we could unload them.
To d a y m y b u d d y, D o u g
Cibulka, who fished the same
stream as me when we were kids
and I were the only two people
in camp and our plan was to
check out some new country that
we had received a tip on, that
was in The Necedah National
Wildlife Refuge and adjacent to
land that we have hunted for
over 50-years.
In this situation, I was
wearing hip boots as was Doug,
we both carry packs and we
walk away from the truck all
day, living by the compass and
at dark, we work our way back
to the truck.
The snow and warm temps
before the snowstorm has
created the worse problem of
all and that is the dreaded
“half ice”! Half ice sometimes
supports the person walking on
it and sometimes does not. This
years added bonus is that the
water table is up in a big way
so what is generally knee deep
is waist deep
Doug and I are walking
50-yards abreast of each other,
and hoping to kick up a buck
a hole in so that we can eat
venison and look at it on the
buck pole
Our adventure is maybe 20
minutes long when I take a hard
fall through the ice and fill my
right hip boot. Ten minutes later
I fell face first as I was going
through the ice and I am soaked.
Twenty minutes later and
still working away from the
truck I watch Doug go through
the ice and even saw is rifle
completely go underwater. We
love deer camp!
Friday, November 28th
High 34, low 22
We n u m b e r r o u g h l y 1 2
hunters today, ranging from
the age of 13 to 62. Our day is
spent doing drives and as usual,
working away from the truck. It
is 3:45 and we are setting up our
final drive of the day and it is a
one-mile square of marsh and
scrub oak forest.
We a r e r u n n i n g o u t o f
daylight, we must hurry. First,
13-year-old Dylan Walters
misses a buck. Then at least
one other buck is kicked up late
in the drive. Daylight is fading,
shots are fired. I am the end
driver and am exactly 3 miles
from the trucks. I see a rocket
sailing over the marsh grass, it’s
a buck. My first potential shot
in 7-days. I put a bullet in the
5-pointer and one very physical
drag back to the truck begins.
The next two nights! Travis
Dushek brags about how much
he loves deer heart and shows
everyone how much by kind of
cooking my bucks heart on the
campfire. After a few minutes
the buck’s heart erupts from
Trav’s belly!
I am hiding parts of my
humongous bucks anatomy in
my 26-year-old nephew Riley
Schusters pillowcase. Riley
catches me and for no real
reason attacks me. We wrestle
and fall onto Chris Grinde's
sleeping bag in a rather hard
way. Chris is in his sleeping bag
and takes his new head injury
well.
There are 12 kids between
19 and 26 in this camp! Many of
us hide in the woods after dark
and throw snowballs at the guys
hanging around the campfire
and watching Trav consume my
monster buck's heart.

For the second time in a row, the "Clear Lake Self Storage" team
won the second quarter on the Thursday Nite Ladies league. On the
Wed. Nite Ladies league the M&M gals locked up the first half honors.
Congrats to both teams! We have several more leagues that are bowling
for either quarter or half winners. I'll update these results next week.
Just a reminder to our bowlers: The Christmas Tournament starts

The sign up schedule is posted. Please check it out this week!!
Back When
Farmer John lived on a quite rural highway. But, as time went by,
the traffic slowly built up at an alarming rate. The traffic was so heavy
and so fast that his chickens were being run over at the rate of three
to six a day.
So one day Farmer John called the sheriff's office and said, "You've
got to do something about all of these people driving so fast and killing
all of my chickens."
"What do you want me to do?" asked the sheriff.
"I don't care, just do something about those crazy drivers!"
So the next day he had the county workers go out and erect a sign
that said: SLOW -- SCHOOL CROSSING.
Three days later Farmer John called the sheriff and said, "You've got
to do something about these drivers. The 'school crossing' sign seems
to make them go even faster."
So, again, the sheriff sends out the county workers and they put up
a new sign: SLOW -- CHILDREN AT PLAY.
That really sped them up. So Farmer John called and called and
called every day for three weeks. Finally, he asked the sheriff, "Your
signs are doing no good. Can I put up my own sign?"
The sheriff told him, "Sure thing, put up your own sign." He was
going to let the farmer do just about anything in order to get him to
stop calling every day to complain.
The sheriff got no more calls from Farmer John. Three weeks later,
curiosity got the best of the sheriff and he decided to give Farmer John a
call. "How's the problem with those drivers. Did you put up your sign?"
"Oh, I sure did. And not one chicken has been killed since then. I've
got to go. I'm very busy." He hung up the phone.
The sheriff was really curious now and he thought to himself, "I'd
better go out there and take a look at the sign...it might be something
that WE could use to slow down drivers..."
So the sheriff drove out to Farmer John's house, and his jaw dropped
the moment he saw the sign. It was spray-painted on a sheet of wood:
NUDIST COLONY -- GO SLOW AND WATCH OUT FOR THE CHICKS.

Injury claims from work related auto accidents require special attention.
If you are injured in a work related auto accident, there will be worker’s comp
claims and claims against the responsible driver’s insurer, or even an uninsured
motorist claim. Be aware you have 12 years to pursue worker’s comp but as little
as 3 years to file negligence claims against an auto insurer. Get an experienced
lawyer. Get results. Call us and we’ll develop a plan to help you.

Hilltopper wrestlers win
by nine in Luck dual
By Kelsie Hoitomt
LUCK — The Glenwood City
wrestling team traveled to Luck
last Tuesday night for a dual
against the co-op of Luck, Fredrick
and Grantsburg (LFG).
Out of the 14 weight classes,
there were seven forfeits, six pins
and then one decision, which
resulted in the Toppers winning
45-36.
The dual started with Dan
Taylor, Jake Nadeau and Brad
Kessler each receiving forfeits
in their 106, 113 and 120 weight
classes.
LFG’s Cole Britton then put
his team on the board when he
received a forfeit at 126.
The first mat action of the
night followed with Trevor Larson
getting pinned after 5:35 of
wrestling against Pete Lund.
Marcus Ullom put the score
further into the Toppers’ favor
after he pinned Jared Lund in the
second period.
12 additional points were
awarded to the Toppers at 145
and 152 when Jake O’Meara and
Spencer Peterson received forfeits.
Then LFG answered back
with 18 of their own scored after
Triston Brewer pinned Austin
Wannemacher in 3:15.
Then Carlos Perez was pinned
in the second period of his 170
pound match and Tony Glover of
LFG received a forfeit at 182.
The night finished with Jake
Logghe beating Mikel Louis by
a 6-0 decision and then Hogan
Chouinard won by a fall over Matt
Louis.
The final heavy weight match
award points to LFG after Parker
Steen pinned Quinton Rogers late
in the match.
The Toppers were back on the
mat Tuesday, December 16 with
a quad at home. They will then
travel to the Northwestern High
School for an invitational this
Saturday, December 20 that is
scheduled to start at 9:30 a.m.

Booze and Belts traffic safety
mobilization strives to save lives
To make streets and highways
safer during the upcoming holiday
season, law enforcement agencies
throughout Wisconsin will mobilize
for the annual “Booze and Belts”
campaign from Friday, Dec. 12, to
Saturday, Dec. 20.
“More officers will be on patrol
for longer hours looking for drunken
drivers and unbuckled motorists,”
says David Pabst, director of
the Wisconsin Department of
Tr a n s p o r t a t i o n ’s ( Wi s D O T )
Bureau of Transportation Safety.
“High-visibility law enforcement
mobilizations, like Booze and
Belts, are helping to save lives and
reduce injuries in traffic crashes.”
In the past 10 years, fatalities
from alcohol-related crashes
dropped from 348 in 2003 to 185
in 2013, which is a 47 percent
reduction. Injuries from alcoholrelated crashes dropped from 6,445
in 2003 to 2,660 in 2013, which is a
59 percent reduction. In addition,
seat belt use in Wisconsin is at
an all-time high with nearly 85
percent of drivers and passengers
buckling up, according to WisDOT.
Pabst says, “The goal of law
enforcement officers during Booze
and Belts and throughout the year
is to save lives and reduce injuries
by getting motorists to buckle up
and drive sober – not to issue more
tickets or make more arrests. We
all must work together to attain
zero preventable traffic deaths in
Wisconsin, and there’s no better
time of year to make progress
toward that goal than right now.”

The Finance Planning & Personnel Committee meeting of the of the Boyceville
Village Board was called to order by President, Gilbert Krueger at 5:30 p.m. December 4, 2014 held at the village hall.
Committee attending: Gilbert Krueger, John Hellmann, Jonathan Farrell.
Also attending: C.J. Swanepoel.
Monthly bills were reviewed. Clerk presented what she thought the board intended for who should get paid the Christmas bonus. It was learned the committee
had discussed this in closed session at a previous meeting but hadn't given it to the
clerk. The committee reviewed the list again and changes were made to what the
clerk had presented in the purchase order in that Jennifer Anderson was deleted,
and Heidi Upton and Doug Hellendrung will get paid $200 each which is 1/2 of a
typical full time amount. Heidi wasn't a full time employee during the year but pretty
much filled Hellendrung's shoes when he left.
Clerk inquired as to what the board's intention is for the quarterly Health Savings
Account payment which is made January 1st for January, February, and March. She
was advised to delete Jennifer Anderson, Dan Wellumson and add Heidi Upton as
a single policy. No payment for Brandon Scott because he is "interim". Krueger
moved, Hellmann seconded motion to recommend payment of the bills as presented and discussed to include the changes for HSA and Christmas bonus. Voice
vote carried.
Clerk inquired as to the board's intention for Brandon Scott benefits decided at
a previous meeting. Since we gave Heidi Upton 1 week vacation (because she was
a part time employee hired as full time employee) do we want to do the same for
Brandon Scott since he was a part time police officer. Response was no, because
he is interim. At a previous meeting the board stated Brandon Scott gets benefits,
but clerk was advised this didn't mean vacation, sick leave, and personal days.
The vacation could be pro-rated. Clerk asked how to handle the health insurance
for Brandon Scott. Our manual says coverage is provided immediately, but we had
Heidi Upton wait until the next pay period which put her with coverage for the first
of the month. It was decided to provide coverage immediately. It was suggested
the manual be reviewed to make sure it says what we truly want to have happen
because it makes more sense to have coverage the first of the month following the
date of hire. It was stated we need to review where the files are kept for personnel
because it should be in one location
Hellmann moved, Farrell seconded motion to adjourn. Voice vote carried. Meeting was adjourned at 6:55 p.m.

Pacific Guarantee Mortgage, San Francisco, Calif.
According to the complaint, Kyle and
Tina Kogler formerly owned the property
at 19 Nicolas Way and had a mortgage
with Mortgage Electronic Registration
Systems. They filed for divorce in September 2013.
A year later Kyle Kogler granted a
quit claim deed on the property to Tina
Kogler, and she gave a warranty deed to
Ryan and Winther.
The complaint says that to buy the
property, Ryan and Winther borrowed
$230,000 from GMC and Pacific Guarantee. The proceeds of that mortgage
were expected to be used to pay off the
earlier mortgage and fund the purchase,
according to the complaint.
Edina says it received "a purportedly
certified check" for $261,560 from GMC
and Pacific. Edina closed on the property,
paid off the earlier mortgage and sold
the property to Ryan and Winther. The
complaint says that three days later
Edina received notice that its account
had been debited for $261,560 because
the check was bad.
Edina alleges fraud and is asking
for "a constructive trust" against the
property for $261,560 plus advances
and costs.

First National Community Bank,
Hudson, filed suit against David M.
Gorka, Hudson.
According to the complaint, in June
2012 Gorka borrowed $64,012, using a
2007 BPR Outlander ATV and a 2007
Freightliner semi-truck as collateral.
He failed to make payments, and the
bank got a judgment to repossess the
semi and ATV. But, says the complaint,
when a county deputy went to recover
the collateral, Gorka said he had sold
the ATV on Craigslist.
The complaint says the deputy did
recover the semi, but a third-party buyer
said the wheels and rims that were on the
vehicle had been replaced with cheaper
ones and the seats had been removed.
First National alleges property dam-

Resolve to give blood in January
for National Blood Donor Month
The American Red Cross asks eligible blood
donors to make a resolution to give blood regularly
in 2015, beginning with National Blood Donor Month
in January.
National Blood Donor Month recognizes the
importance of giving blood and platelets while
honoring those who roll up a sleeve to help patients
in need. It has been observed during January
since 1970, and that’s no coincidence. Winter is an
especially difficult time to collect enough blood to
meet patient needs. Unpredictable winter weather
can result in blood drive cancelations, and seasonal
illnesses, like the flu, may cause some donors to be
unable to make or keep blood donation appointments.
Donors of all blood types are needed, especially
those with O negative, A negative and B negative.
With a shelf life of 42 days, red blood cells must be
constantly replenished to maintain an adequate
supply for patients. Individuals who come out to give
blood Jan. 1 through Jan. 4 will receive a long-sleeve
Red Cross T-shirt, while supplies last.
To learn more about donating blood and to
schedule an appointment, download the Red Cross
Blood Donor App, visit redcrossblood.org or call
1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767).
Upcoming
Blood
Donation
Opportunities
January 5, 2015: 12 p.m. - 6 p.m., Holy Cross
Lutheran Church, 615 Maple St., Glenwood City.
How to Donate Blood
Simply call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767)
or visit redcrossblood.org to make an appointment
or for more information. All blood types are needed
to ensure a reliable supply for patients. A blood
donor card or driver’s license, or two other forms of
identification are required at check-in. Individuals
who are 17 years of age (16 with parental permission
in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are
in generally good health may be eligible to donate
blood. High school students and other donors 18
years of age and younger also have to meet certain
height and weight requirements.

Glenwood City Common Council discusses
several items, needs with eye on the budget
GLENWOOD CITY — Several
items were discussed by the
Glenwood City common council
at its regular monthly meeting
Monday night, November 10.
Although it acted on just a few
of those items, many of the
discussions seemed to circle back
to the city’s finances and budget.
The council has been grappling
with what to do with its aging
loader the past few months repair it or replace it.
That subject was once again
broached at Monday’s meeting.
Public Works Director Doug
Doornink told the board during
his report that the city’s current
loader was in need of some
immediate repairs.
“We do need tires desperately
on the loader,” Doornink informed
the council. “And the cutting edges
on the bucket need to be replaced.”
Doornink said that the loaders
front two tires are bald making
it extremely difficult to make it
up any of the hills within the city
limits. He was also afraid that
without front tire replacements
that the loader would be unable to
hold the weight of the snow blower
attachment.
“I know I didn’t budget for
these things and that is my fault,”
continued Doornink. “But we need
to do something. One tire is going
flat every day.”
Doornink told council members
that the two rear tires should
make it through until next year
but that both front tires should
be replaced.
When asked about tire costs,
Doornink said that the cheapest
tires would be $2,000 for a set of
two all the way up to $3,000 to
$4,000 a piece for good snow tires.
He also added that new cutting
edges would run around $1,500.
“I am not opposed to getting a
different loader,” said Mayor John
Larson. “But I think we need to
review the payment plan when
we get together Thursday night
(November 13) for our budget
hearing to make sure there will
be monies available next year
and the years after, that we are
going to be obligated to make
payments.”
“This is not directly related
to the loader but we have the
Safe-Route-to-School grant to we
also need to look at and how we
are going to fund that,” Larson
continued.
“The preliminary work we did
on the budget, I think was a good
first step. But frankly I don’t think
that budget is sustainable. It gets
us through another year,” added
Mayor Larson.
“There are some holes in that as
far as long-term viability,” added
Larson.
“Do we project through five
years on the budget?” asked
councilperson Ken Peterson.
“We never have,” answered
Larson. “It’s a good idea.”
“Is it something you don’t like
to do?” inquired Peterson.
“I would like to do that,” Larson
replied. “I would like to see us
have a five-year replacement plan
on equipment so that we are not
here again, not that accidents
can’t happen. Not to pick on Doug
but tires should not be an all-of-asudden deal.”
“And what are our other
equipment needs? What are we
going to need in the next five years
before we get the loader paid for,”
Larson continued. “We have to
look at the longer term. It does
not make any sense at all to stick
$15,000 in to this loader if we are
going to get rid of it right away.”
“On the other hand it may
make sense to stick $15,000 in
to it if we can keep it for another
five years.”
“What do you guys think?”
Larson queried the board.
“Well, Doug needs tires,” said
councilperson Terry Klinger. “If he

stated, “I will retire anyway.”
Krueger noted that Wellumson’s

asked for a special meeting of
the board on Thursday evening
to discuss a replacement for
Wellumson. The meeting will be

CONNORSVILLE — This
week’s “Farm Feature” highlights
the fourth generation dairy farm
that is now owned by Steve and
Angie Olson.
After taking over the dairy
farm in 2008 from his parents,
Pork and Carol, Steve and his wife
Angie decided to name their place
Maple Hills Dairy.
Prior to the change in ownership,
Steve was in a partnership with
his parents for 13 years.
The dairy farm began years ago
with Steve’s great-grandparents,
Karl and Clara. From there, it was
Clyde and Muriel and then Pork
and Carol.
In 1998, Steve and Angie moved
into their home, which is just up
the road from the original farm at
Pork and Carol’s on the outskirts
of Connorsville.
In 2008, he and Angie came to
the conclusion that dairy farming
had to be easier than it was so they
made contact with a company that
aids in the installation of milking
parlors.
Once the parlor was in, they
expanded their herd and now they
have around 70 cows and 70 young
stock including those on their
own property that are milked,
the calves across the road at Pork
and Carol’s and the dry cows at
another location near by.
The farm consists of four
locations, which covers roughly
496 acres. They recently purchased
a property that has two sheds, a

this year, and Ohly will pay for the
$33,000 cost.
In other action the board heard
from Police Chief Wellumson,
that the department handled 70
incidents in October including 20
traffic-related items. He also told
the board that he had a visitor
at his office recently and was
informed by the former manager of
the Eagles Nest that the business
is closed down. Wellumson was
asked about the bow permits to
allow hunters with bow and arrow
to hunt within the village. He

Monday evening, November 10th.
They also discussed village-owned
land that is being considered for
the site of a new fire station. And,
they were informed that the police
chief is retiring.
The Boyceville Community Fire
District is in the planning stages
of building a new fire station and
they have identified two parcels in
the village for that purpose. One of
the sites is village-owned land just
south of the BP convenience store
along State Highway 79.
Village Board member Bud
Gilbertson reported to the board
that it would cost $900 to have
the six-acre site appraised. During
the discussion board members also
talked about the other site, which
is privately owned, and Gilbertson
asked if “we should wait with
the appraisal until the other site
is explored.” Village President
Gib Krueger moved to table the
issue until the December meeting
saying, “Another month wait is not
going to hurt.”

Swanepoel said she did not have
any of the information required to
fill out the form.
“I got on there, but I couldn’t
just do it because I don’t have what
I need,” she said.
Monn said when he talked to
the representative from the FAA
on the telephone, the gentleman
had pulled up the grid map of the
Boyceville airport on his computer
and said the fire district would
need to determine the closest
corner of the building to the
runway and the closest height to
the runway.
Mike Blechinger, the fire
district’s representative from
the Town of Tiffany, worked with
the FAA to locate flagpoles at the
Boyceville airport for the veterans’
memorial.
Blechinger suggested going
to the center of the lot and then
finding the longitude and latitude
with a GPS unit.

the dot is,” Swanepoel said.

center and then find the number of
feet from the airport building, said
Gilbert Krueger, village president
and chair of the Boyceville fire
district.

BOYCEVILLE — As the old
saying goes — nothing is ever easy.
In order to determine whether a
new fire station will fit within the
height restrictions on the villageowned site behind the BP gas
station in Boyceville, the precise
location from the airport must be
determined to establish the exact
longitude and latitude.
After the last special meeting
of the Boyceville Community Fire
District December 4, Rich Monn,
chair of the Town of Stanton and
chair of the fire district’s five-year
planning committee, reported at
the fire district’s December 10
meeting that he had contacted the
Federal Aviation Administration.
An obstruction evaluation form
on the FAA’s website must be
submitted to determine whether
a new fire station would fit within
the airport’s height restrictions,
Monn said.
Monn also called Five Bugles
Design about the process and said
he had been told that they could
design a fire station that would not
exceed a height of 30 or 35 feet, if
that turned out to be the height
restriction for the building.
Cindy Swanepoel, village clerktreasurer and clerk-treasurer
for the fire district, said she had
tried to access the obstruction
evaluation form on the FAA’s
website.
The form asks for the precise
longitude and latitude of
the proposed building; a site
evaluation; total structure height;
any previous FAA studies of the
site; a United States Geological
Survey (USGS) map with the
precise site marked; and a complete
Krueger suggested that in
the next couple of weeks,
representatives from the fire
district, along with Marlette and
Don Rose, director of public works,
could place cones on the site to
indicate the location of where a
fire station could be situated.
Blechinger said that since
he had worked with the FAA
on the flagpoles, he would be
willing to do what he could to
help with determining the height
restrictions.
Members of the fire district
agreed that placing cones would
be a logical place to start in the
process of determining height
restrictions for the possibility of
building a new fire station.
Other business
In other business, the Boyceville Fire District:
• Learned that the Boyceville
fire department had gone out on
11 runs in the last month and
that the total runs for the year
so far is 85. The 85 runs to date
is very close to the department’s
all-time high number of runs for
one year, Marlette said. The most
recent runs included setting up
two landing zones, several car
accidents, two mutual aid runs
for Menomonie, two lift assists,
a structure fire and a carbon
monoxide alarm.
• Approved not paying the
second half of the Five Bugles
Design/Architectural Design
Group fee of $2,556.05 for
preliminary design on a new fire
station until the company has
actually completed the work.
• Set the next meeting for
January 14 at 6:30 p.m. at the
Boyceville village hall.
ROASTING WEINERS and marshmallows at the community bonfire proved to be a popular thing
at the 14th Spirit of Christmas celebration in Boyceville Saturday, December 13. The weiners, buns,
and all the fixings for smores were provided free of charge by Peoples State Bank and the Boyceville
United Methodist Church. (Watch for more Spirit of Christmas next week.) —photo by Shawn DeWitt
City Council
Continued from page 1
The City currently leases the
city hall building from Hiawatha
National Bank.
“But $3,800 is $3,800,” noted
Larson.
“That is what Nancy (Hover)
was talking about at the last
meeting,” interjected council
member Terrance Klinger. “If we
keep it in town, if possible, and
then when you really need the
bank they are there to help you.”
But Klinger did echo the mayor’s statement that $3,800, however, is $3,800 in savings.
When Klinger asked about
early pay-off, Larson said that
there was no early pay-off penalty with either financing option.
Larson told the council that he
did have John Deere figure out
what the cost of a straight lease
would be. He reported that a fiveyear lease would run $10,731 per
year instead of the $28,000 to
$29,000 per year for five years to
purchase.
Larson did ask for the council’s
thoughts on leasing saying there
is something to be said about having something new every year.
“My opinion is that we own it,”
said Klinger. “If we maintain it
properly it will last for 25 years
and be in good shape. I know it
will be a burden for five years to
pay for it but then we are in good
shape again.”
“I have heard some comments,
because it is my job to listen to
the taxpayers in town, because
we have upgraded our equipment
so much the last couple of years,”
Klinger added.
“But you can’t be airing the
tire up every day, the pin is worn
and tires are $2,000 a piece,” not
Klinger of the city’s old loader.
“That is just it,” council person
Ben DeGross said. “Our equipment is being maintained better.”
“I know we have a tight budget
and it is a concern,” Klinger said
but pointed out that it is priority
need.
After some more discussion,
councilperson DeGross made the
motion to purchase with financing through Hiawatha National
Bank.
Members Klinger, DeGross,
Steve Lee and Crystal Booth all
voted in favor of the motion.
Doug Doornink, Director of
Public Works, noted that the new
unit does have a 7-year warranty
and will come with a three-yard
bucket but that a special frame
will have to be purchase to attached the snow blower.
In other business:
•Approved an operator’s license for Lisa M. Lovgren
•Learned that payment was
received from the Glenwood City
School District for its share of this
past summer’s swimming lessons
held at the city pool. Mayor Larson also told councilpersons that
the Town of Forest had also submitted payment for its residence
use of the city’s recycling center.
He also said that there was no
indication from Forest Township
officials that they would not be
using the garbage and recycling
center in 2015.
•Approved a request by Glenwood City Police Chief Robert
Darwin to attend the Wisconsin Chiefs of Police Association
Conference in Wisconsin Dells
February 9-11 of next year. Darwin reported that the cost of the
3-day conference was $135 plus
approximately $240 for the hotel
stay ($80 per night reduced rate
as part of the conference registration.) The chief did note that the
cost for the conference was covered by his training budget.
FINISHED - The new Boyceville Ambulance building has been completed. The ribbon-cutting
ceremony will most likely be held at the end of January or in February and the service hopes to move
in by January 1.
