To submit story ideas or news items contact: Pat Mulvaney, editor, patm@spartanewspapers.com John Paul Schaller, sports editor, jps@spartanewspapers.com Renae Caldwell, reporter, renaec@spartanewspapers.com The popularity of an archery program at Meadowview Middle School in Sparta warrants another coach, the personnel and educational initiatives committee of the school board decided this week. It recommended hiring a second coach for $359. Middle school activities director Toby Oswald said between 30 and 40 students participate in the archery club twice per week before school. The group attends competitions in the winter and spring, including a large event held in March in conjunction with the Sportsmen’s & Outdoor Recreation Expo held at the school. The Sparta Gridiron Booster Club hosts the expo, but Oswald indicated the archery club will be the chief organizers of the Sparta Classic archery shoot, as it has grown to more than 500 participants. Mathews, Inc. is a major sponsor of the event, and a crucial partner for the archery club, which is part of the National Archery in the Schools Program. “It’s a great partnership we have with Mathews,” said Oswald. In other business, the committee heard a report about the district’s communications methods by Communications Coordinator Autumn Grooms. In addition to promoting the district through the Sparta newspapers, it also utilizes several social media venues, including Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest, as well as LinkedIn, for professional connections. It also publishes a blog. The district revamped its website over the past few months. The website, www.spartan.org, is now more user-friendly and includes a search bar and a place for groups and organizations to submit their flyers, Grooms noted. How many people can relate to this view? -- Dr. Mark Edwards, as he leans in, ready to perform dentistry on a patient in the chair. Edwards is retiring after almost four decades. He sold his practice to Sparta Dental Center and closed his W. Wisconsin Street practice as of Dec. 31. Edwards is helping with his patients’ transition to the new dentist, Dr. Jennifer Knoll. Photo by Renae Caldwell Retirement will leave a hard-to-fill cavity in Sparta by RENAE CALDWELL Staff Writer Just like his gut feeling to practice dentistry in Sparta, Dr. Mark Edwards used his instinct when deciding to retire. “Doc” Edwards as he is known by most, closed his practice at 605 W. Wisconsin St. on Dec. 31. He sold his practice to Dr. Jennifer Knoll of Sparta Dental Center, 3000 Riley Rd. “I’m helping transition my patients to Sparta Dental Center,” said Edwards, noting it is important to him that his patients have somewhere to go to continue their dentistry. Edwards began practicing in Sparta in 1976, shortly after graduating from Indiana University Dental School. Edwards was passing through Sparta on his way to look for a public health site to begin his career. In his motel room, he read a directory that indicated there were a few dentists in town in their 60s. He thought he should consult with them in case they were close to retiring and there might be room for him here. His journey led him to doctors Curt Barlow and Jack Alexander. Edwards clicked with Barlow immediately over their shared love of the outdoors. It was the mounts and fishing lures decorating his home and office walls that cemented the deal, and soon Edwards joined their practice on W. Oak Street. “Dr. Barlow was a great mentor to me, and Dr. Alexander was very kind,” said Edwards. Edwards purchased the W. Wisconsin Street location in 1980, and Barlow and Alexander came with him until their respective retirements. In his hey-day Edwards had a patient list of about 4,000, and through most of it was a trio of dedicated staff members. Chairside assistant Barb Schmitz has been with him for 33 years; office assistant Kay Flock has been with Edwards for 32 years; and hygienist Shannon Stuessel has worked for Edwards for 17 years. Schmitz and Stuessel also made the transition to Sparta Dental Center. “I can’t say enough good things about the women that worked here,” said Edwards. Of course, he will miss his patients tremendously. “Patients became my friends,” he said. “It was good to catch up with them when they came in for appointments.” In his almost 40 years of dentistry in Sparta, Edwards saw multiple generations of families – even four generations a time or two. “There’s going to be some sadness because of all the personal relationships I’ve Tomah aviator just can’t keep his head out of the clouds Former civil defense coordinator Gordy Stelter shares his love of aviation with a new generation by MARCI MARTIN Contributing Writer Ask Gordon “Gordy” Stelter about flying and a big smile will come over his face. “I just love it,” he says. Over the years, his love of flying has provided him a long and storied life in different careers as well as in community service. Stelter took over responsibility for part of the family farm his senior year of high school in 1952, doing chores in the morning before school. “I told my dad, I’d do it, and he wasn’t going to let me. But his friend said “Why not? It’s not like he can do any worse!” Stelter laughs. He has been on the farm ever since, although his son runs it now. It has been in the family for 135 years. In 1958, Stelter also started working for the first Tomah radio station, WTMB, doing farm reports. As the farm director, he covered what was going on with various crops and farms in the area. In 1962, John D. Rice of Sparta called him up and asked Stelter to cover the Monroe County Fair, which Stelter did until 1966. He had the opportunity to work with Orion Samuelson from Ontario, WI who went on to national recognition for the syndicated US Farm Report. “When we were done,” Stelter said, “he got to go to Chicago, and I went back to the farm.” One of the things that Samuelson and Stelter had in common was that they both loved to fly. “It was one of the things we could talk about when we got together,” he said. Stelter earned his pilot license in 1958. His flying skills met up with his reporting experience when Stelter covered the Fort McCoy fire. It was hard to get information about the fire using traditional reporting methods, so Stelter would fly along the fire, noting efforts and updates, and then send them into the radio station with the noise of the plane behind his voice. His updates made the Associated Press and United Press as well as newspapers country wide. Stelter was a member of the civil air patrol as well, helping with urgent and emergent situations like the La Crosse flood. In 1966, there was an opening for a part-time county civil defense coordinator. Stelter was one of seven men that interviewed for it. “Some of these guys had military backgrounds behind them. I didn’t think I had a chance in the world competing against these guys,” he said. “I told them I have no military background, just in Committee gives nod to Eagle Scout project by RENAE CALDWELL Staff Writer dinator.” It was a job that Stelter did for another 30 years, retiring in July of 1996.

Sparta High School Junior Max Engh wants to replace the existing sign as his Eagle Scout project for Boy Scout Troop 67. The current sign is dilapidated and the paint is chipped, he explained to the finance and facilities committee of the school board this week. Engh said he spoke with several school officials regarding the project, all of whom were in favor of the aesthetic upgrade. The language would stay the same – Sparta Track and Field Sports Complex – but the lettering would be slightly different, in a block style protruding from the face of the sign. The sign itself would be made of weatherproof materials. Engh estimated the cost of the sign and pillars to be between $1,000 and $1,500. He plans to fundraise, but noted officials indicated existing funds from the track (See CLOUDS Page 9) (See SCOUT Page 9) With over five-and-a-half decades of flying experience, former Monroe County Civil Defense Coordinator Gordy Stelter’s favorite place is still in the cockpit of one of the Tomah Flying Club’s two Cessnas imparting his knowledge to a new generation of pilots. charge of civil aviation here at the airport, and a little search and rescue team.

I’ve got eight grandkids and I’d like to spend more time with them,” he said. Edwards’ three adult children all grew up in Sparta. Son Bryan and his wife, Christi, live here. Daughter Allie and her husband, John, live in La Crescent, and son Brad lives in Georgia. Edwards has no plans to leave the area. His wife, Lynn, is a dietician with Mayo Clinic Health System. “It’s time to do some fun things with my family,” said Edwards, who plans on going to the PGA Masters Tournament in April, fishing in Canada, and making regular visits to relatives in Indiana. “This area’s been real good to me. I couldn’t have asked for more,” he said.

History Highlights from the Monroe County Local History Room Preparing for the worst: Monroe County’s fallout shelters by Jarrod Roll Monroe County historian The Local History Room has been researching the 1950s lately in preparation of an upcoming display about life in mid-20th century Monroe County. Part of that research included investigating the fallout shelters in Monroe County during the Cold War era. Throughout the 1950s through the 1970s, the US government worked to educate citizens about surviving a nuclear attack— mostly by providing procedures on minimizing short-term exposure to fallout. This effort commonly became known as Civil Defense. All over the US, communities identifiedsafeplacestostayuntil radiation levels lowered to safe enough levels. These safe places were called “fallout shelters.” Some Americans built fallout shelters on their property, such as in their basement. Others would have relied on a community fallout shelter. I recently asked Gordon Stelter of Tomah, former Monroe County Civil Defense Director, about the kind of fallout shelters found in Monroe County during the Cold War era. “I can’t recall any private fallout shelters existing in Monroe County during the Cold War,” stated Stelter. “I’m sure they were there but my department didn’t focus on training people with how to build their own (in their basements, etc.). Instead, my department identified and stocked large fallout shelters around the county to handle large numbers of people.” In fact, by 1962, 75 buildings throughout the county were identifiedaspossiblecommunity fallout shelters. County banks, schools, taverns, and even the railroad tunnels were identified as potential fallout shelters for the county’s use. According to Stelter: “The Chicago Northwestern Railroad tunnel at Norwalk was the very best shelter in Monroe County because it has great fallout protection and flowing spring water. Ralph Dutton was the Emergency Management Director before me. He was the one who identified the best places in the county to serve as shelters and Vern Zeigler, truck driver for the Nicolet Dray Line, Sheriff Ron Sanders, and Civil Defense Director Gordon Stelter unload part of the 15-ton shipment of Civil Defense shelter supplies to be stored throughout Monroe County.” then distributed the supplies. “I replaced Ralph in 1966. My team’s job was restocking those shelters with fresh supplies like hard candy (cherry and lemon flavored),crackers,and15-gallon water containers. You suck on three of those candies and you didn’t feel like eating a meal. “We gave the outdated food to county farmers to feed to their animals. Once the crackers were expired they were fed to From past Democrats Answers on back page the chickens. And boy did those chickens go crazy for those crackers! The expired candy was thrown into the feed grinder and fed to cows.” When asked if fallout was ever a risk to Monroe County citizens, Stelter responded “Monroe County had fallout shelters, not bomb shelters, although most could serve for both. Fallout was more of a risk to us rather than getting bombed. “We used to take radiation 5 YEARS AGO – Jan. 13, 2011 Melvina is smallest, poorest of county’s eight villages Sparta Boys and Girls Club Director Franke resigns City OK with sharing chambers with county, but rent is disputed 10 YEARS AGO – Jan. 12, 2006 Proposed wind farm law catches good, bad air at unofficial meeting Step taken toward ownership by city of proposed skate park Eye unique development for city’s southwest side 15 YEARS AGO – Jan. 11, 2001 Presentation on crime lab enthralls Tomah audience INS impersonators in court for robbery ProposedordinanceforfirepitsinCityofSpartascrutinized 20 YEARS AGO – Jan. 11, 1996 Sparta would welcome La Crosse Aquinas to MVC Recent revaluation draws criticism that new assessments exceed 100% Middle school performers take to the stage Friday – “Give My Regards to Broadway” 25 YEARS AGO – Jan. 10, 1991 Arrest 10 in demonstration at Fort McCoy Death camp survivor tells his story St. Mary’s Hospital loses 5 employees to Desert Shield fallout tests every week in Monroe County during the height of the Cold War.

One time, a reading taken from a Monroe County farm field was almost high enough in radiation fallout to tell people to stay in their homes. This was when the Soviet Union was testing bombs.” In 1972, the late Don Goodman made a training film called “Are You Ready” for Stelter’s Monroe County Office of Civil Defense. The film’s purpose was to demonstrate how to set up a Civil Defense operation in case of a major emergency. The 19-minute film portrays real-life disasters as emergency response teams race to the rescue from Norwalk to Sparta to Tomah. Local officials managed the simulated chaos from their command center at the Monroe County Courthouse, and dozens of Monroe County residents— young and old—comprised the cast. With the help of Don Goodman, Gordon Stelter, and Mark Davini, this film was preserved and transferred to DVD. Copies of that DVD can be purchased through the Local History Room’s website, www.MCLHR.org, or by visiting in person at 200 West Main St., Sparta. The Local History Room is open Monday through Saturday from 9-4:30. Do you have any stories about fallout shelters?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR POLICY Standing up for Wisconsin priorities in 2016 As we start a new year and a new session of Congress I will continue to fight for key Wisconsin priorities, including ensuring hard-working Wisconsinites have access to good paying jobs, increasing college affordability, and giving our veterans the care they have earned and deserve. While we have seen improvement in the economy, far too many western and central Wisconsin families continue to feel like they can’t get ahead. We need to change this. The first step is investing in our greatest resource – our workers – so that we can remain the most innovative and creative nation in the world. I will continue to work to foster an environment that creates good paying jobs, gets Wisconsinites back to work, and keeps our economy growing. In addition to investing in our workers we need to invest in higher education and help more students afford college. With the cost of higher education continuing to increase, many hardworking families are finding it difficult to send their kids to college. We must take steps to make sure college remains affordable and accessible for all families. In the coming weeks I will introduce an updated version of my College Affordability Action Plan, which includes a number of c o m m o n sense action items to incr ease c o l l e g e affordability. One of my key priorities during 2015 Ron Kind was working to fix the problems seen at the Tomah VA Medical Center, and other VA facilities around the county, and our work is far from done. I will continue to work with anyone willing to help fix these problems in order to ensure our Wisconsin veterans receive the care they have earned and deserve. As I keep working to solve issues that are important to Wisconsin I encourage you to reach out to my office with any questions, comments, or concerns. You can reach us by calling 608-782-2558 or visiting www.kind.house.gov. Tax Credit will help families with the high cost of care As I speak with people across the district and around the state, many tell me they feel like they are working harder and falling farther behind. And they’re right; real wages continue to stagnate, w h i l e the costs of basic necessities continue to rise. The few jobs being created in our state Julie Lassa are mostly Guest Opinion low-paying, and we’re still losing middleand upper-income jobs. All these factors contribute to the fact that people are falling out of the middle class in Wisconsin faster than any other state in the nation, according to the Pew Charitable Trust One of the reasons middle class families are feeling such a pinch now is the increasing difficulty of balancing the demands of work and family. For example, according to a 2014 report by ChildCare Aware, Wisconsin is the seventh most expensive state for child care in the nation. The annual cost of child care in Wisconsin in 2011 for a 4-yearold was $9,588, and $10,775 for an infant. That’s higher than the average annual cost of tuition and fees for public colleges in our state. The high cost of child care impacts parents’ ability to choose the best child care for their children. And having to spend such a large percentage of household income on care for children and other dependents means that less of a family’s resources can be spent on food, housing, and other basic necessities. Children aren’t the only family members who may need expensive care. With our aging population, more individuals are relying on long-term medical care. If that person’s spouse must continue to work in order to provide income for their family, that means costly home care services must be arranged. Wisconsin is also in the top ten most expensive states for home health care. If a loved one receives four hours of care five days a week, costs can range from around $20,000 to $26,000 a year, depending on where you live. The cost of providing care for children and other loved ones is a major source of financial stress for Wisconsin’s middle class families. That is why I joined with State Representative Melissa Sargent (D-Madison) to introduce a tax credit for child and dependent care expenses. This proposal mirrors the current federal tax credit that can be claimed for expenses related to caregiving expenses that are necessary so a family member can hold a job. Allowable expenses for a qualifying individual under federal law include costs for inhome care or daycare, nursery school or preschool programs, and before-school and afterschool care for school-age children. Depending on the claimant’s adjusted gross income, the credit may be worth between 20 and 35 percent of the claimant’s allowable expenses, up to a maximum annual amount of $3,000 if there is one qualifying individual and up to $6,000 if there are two or more qualifying individuals. Under the proposal I introduced, anyone who is eligible for the federal credit would be able to claim the same amount on their state tax return. Wisconsin’s hard-working middle class men and women shouldn’t have to struggle to make sure their loved ones are cared for. A child and dependent care tax credit is one important step toward making sure that people who work hard and play by the rules can provide for their families. Sen.

However, today’s per gallon tax ($0.31) is significantly higher than it was in 1980 ($0.09). Currently, Wisconsin’s rate ranks 14th highest of the 50 states. Despite the rise in rate, gas tax collections have declined as a share of personal income for nearly 20 years, falling from 0.67% in 1988 to 0.40% in 2015. The Wisconsin Taxpayers Alliance is a nonpartisan, nonprofit research organization dedicated to good government through citizen education since 1932. offer more available support to our service members and their families,” said Rep. VanderMeer. “We are proclaiming February 2016 as USO Wisconsin Month to commemorate the 75th Anniversary of the USO and to raise the awareness of the positive impact of the organization.” The Sparta newspapers will not print candidate endorsements as letters to the editor.

Letters to the Editor Why I Withdrew Dear Editor; To the constituents of District 14 for Monroe County Supervisor, Monroe County Board, and residents of Monroe County: It is with mixed emotions that I announce my withdrawal from the election for Monroe County Board Supervisor effective immediately. I have recently accepted another opportunity that will better fit my career goals and family obligations, which requires travel for work out of the area. Unfortunately, this new opportunity restricts me from dedicating the time needed to fully represent my district and county to the best of my ability. I am honored to be considered for the position and I would like to thank everyone for their support. Gary Flock Cashton Politics, Religion, Iowa, Cruz Dear Editor: When politics get mixed up with religion, both lose credibility. Sometimes they look silly. That was never more evident than it has been in the Iowa Republican presidential race. Iowa Republicans usually support candidates who flaunt religion. First it was Gov. Scott Walker, who blatantly told Republicans that God told him to run for president. Even Iowa evangelicals didn’t buy that Walker whopper for long, however. When Walker failed to manage his campaign budget and dropped out, Iowa Republicans went for the next most ostentatiously religious candidate, Dr. Ben Carson. Walker, by the way, never explained God’s change of heart. After Carson’s eccentric statements and campaign blunders caused him to falter, Iowa Republicans flirted briefly with Donald Trump before shading to the next religious extremist, Senator Ted Cruz. Cruz quickly revealed his intolerance and lack of empathy for those in need. “We will carpet bomb them into oblivion,” he said of Islamic State terrorists, exposing his machismo and disregard for killing innocent civilians. Cruz took an unchristian, cold-hearted and bigoted view of accepting Syrian refugees, declaring that the U.S. should accept Syrian Christians but not Muslims. He said we cannot tell the few bad Muslims from the rest, but he ignored the same problem among Christians. He apparently was not concerned about pedophile Christian clergy, for example, even though that has been a serious problem. Extreme hypocrisy always plays a supporting role to extreme religion, and Iowa politics pulls the curtain back.

Report of stolen wallet leads to robbery charge A Sparta woman is accused of robbery after she allegedly stole a wallet from a woman who had given her a ride home. According to the criminal compliant, a woman gave Kristy M. Womick, 33, a ride to her home on South “K” Street. Womick reportedly asked for money from the woman, who refused her. Womick became upset and allegedly started punching the woman. The victim said Womick took her wallet and ran into the house. Womick told police she went to exit the car and the woman pulled her across to the driver’s seat. Womick said she held the woman’s head down and the woman bit her. Womick then grabbed the other female’s wallet and said she was calling the police. Womick said she went inside her home and called the police. She said she held the wallet so the other woman would not leave before authorities arrived. When police arrived, it was apparent Womick was under the influence of drugs, according to the complaint. She had visible scabs consistent with abuse of controlled substances, and her pupils were dilated. Womick possessed a variety of pills and was uncooperative during her arrest. The wallet was located and presented to the other woman, who reported money was missing.

Page 5 Ask The Trainer by Dave Erickson - ACE-Certified Personal Trainer, ACE-Certified Lifestyle & Weight Management Consultant Editor’s Note: Dave Erickson owns and operates an area health club. This time of the year a lot of people are trying to lose weight. Unfortunately most of us were also trying to lose weight last January! In another paper, I read that the columnist’s New Year resolution was to NOT make any resolutions this year because she never keeps them anyway! I can see how a lot of people could develop the same attitude. However, those people trying to lose weight this month are CONSCIOUSLY thinking the past does not equal the future otherwise why try? Be one must know that the invisible source of our internal dialog, our SUBCONSCIOUS, is programmed that the past equals the future. That is how your brain is designed to work—to powerfully believe and remember that the past equals the future. If you’ve slipped on ice before, you will find it very hard not to walk slowly or avoid ice in the future. The same mechanism controls that internal voice that motivates you to do what you do. If I were to coach you, the first thing we would work on is your brain’s programming that the past equals the future. To lose weight, you have to exercise and eat healthy. If you’re not succeeding at this, your internal voice must be telling you how much you dislike exercise and enjoy your current eating preferences thus motivating how you feel and what you do. So the key to keeping your weight loss resolution this year Shilling announces staff office hours As legislators begin the spring legislative floor period, Senator Jennifer Shilling (DLa Crosse) announced that district representative Taylor Goodine will hold several local office hours in January and February. These office hours offer local residents an opportunity to meet with Sen. Shilling’s staff, share their thoughts on state issues and request assistance with state agencies. Thursday, Jan. 21 from 3:305:00pm at the Norwalk Village Hall - Meeting Room, 208 S. Church St. Tuesday, Feb. 2 from 3:004:30pm at Holmen Village Hall - Board Room 2, 421 Main St. Holmen. Wednesday, Feb. 17 from 3:30 pm-5:00 pm at Hillsboro Public Library - Meeting Room, 819 High Ave., Hillsboro. These listening sessions are open to the public and no RSVP is required. If individuals would like more information, they can contact Sen. Shilling’s district office at 1-608-782-2785 or tollfree at 1-800-385-3385 or email Sen.Shilling@legis.wi.gov. is to understand what I just explained and to use YOUR conscious voice to override your subconscious internal voice that motivates you away from what you need to do to succeed at your goal. This involves teaching (reprogramming) your brain to love exercise and love eating healthy. Once your brain is programmed as such, your internal voice will motivate you to do what you in the past had to use willpower to force yourself to do. Reprogramming your brain involves TALKING BACK to it when it shows you its programming. For example, let’s say you dislike going to the gym and you hear your internal voice say “I don’t want to go to the gym, someone might see me.” You say to your brain (preferably out loud): “That is silly, the gym is full of regular folks…and besides, I need to stop caring so much about what other think…that’s gotten me into this mess of not taking care of myself.” If you find talking back to your internal self-defeating dialog difficult to do, you’re not alone. Most folks don’t understand what I have just explained and we think talking to yourself strange. But if you were to come up to me and say the same thing, my response would be the same as your positive self-talk: “That is silly, the gym is full of regular folks….” So to change the old programming that keeps sabotaging your New Year resolutions, you either need to find someone who is doing what you want to do and tell them all your internal thoughts and feeling and listen to their rebuttals, or you can do it yourself using positive Self-Talk. This year, put your efforts into reprogramming your brain and you won’t be fighting a losing battle trying to use willpower to make changes. Once your brain is reprogrammed, it will work FOR you with internal dialog motivating you to eat healthy and exercise. Weight loss then will become an automatic outcome! For more information on the power of Self-Talk, I highly recommend the book “What to Say When you Talk to Your Self” by Shad Helmstetter, Ph.D. For more information about succeeding at living healthy go to www.getfit4life.net or contact Dave directly at dave@getfit4ife. net.

Born in Atlantic, Iowa on June 30, 1923 to Arthur Ransford Mayhew Fletcher and Anna Marie (Bruff) Fletcher, she was graduated as salutatorian from Austin High School, El Paso, Texas, in 1941. A member of the Sigma Kappa Sorority, she completed her BA majoring in Spanish and minoring in Portuguese, graduating Phi Beta Kappa from the University Katherine Menn of Wisconsin, Madison in 1946. On December 27, 1947, she was united in marriage to Jacob John Menn at St. Clement Episcopal Church in El Paso, Texas. They were blessed with four children. While raising their children, the family lived in California, New York and St. Louis, MO. Katherine was an active church volunteer at the churches they attended, teaching Sunday school, organizing Christmas pageants, and serving as Junior Choir Mother. She was a faithful member of Norwalk United Methodist Church from 1966 until present. Katherine returned to college to pursue teaching certification at Webster College, U of Missouri at St. Louis, and Eden Theological Seminary. She moved from St. Louis to Norwalk, Wisconsin to teach Spanish at Sparta High School from 19661968. From 1968 until her retirement in 1988, she taught Spanish, remedial reading, and elective English at Kickapoo High School in Viola, WI. Upon her retirement, she volunteered at Brookwood Area Schools, using her teaching skills and Spanish to help non-English speaking young students. Her students respected her high standards and expectations, and they loved her sense of style which was fashionable, elegant, and unique. She had the spectacular millinery and high heels for any occasion. Known as Kitty as a young woman, she became Mama Kitty to her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. Reflecting her name, she adored cats. From childhood on, she loved classical music, ballet, and grand opera, attending performances regularly in La Crosse, Milwaukee and Madison. Admired for her hats, she was often asked to do presentations on the history of fashion. Family and friends borrowed wonderful outfits and accessories, but could only wish they had her gorgeous legs. Retirement gave more time to travel to see family across the U.S. and in Europe, to cruise, to help with family cattle round-up events, and to read. She was a lifelong avid reader with a special zest for murder mysteries and theological musings. She was always ready to compassionately listen to any family or friend no matter the circumstances. She embodied unconditional love without ever compromising her own standards. Katherine is survived by her husband of 68 years, Jacob John Menn; their children: Dr. Jeffrey Fletcher (Paula) Menn of Norwalk, WI, Dr. Jessica A. (Dr. Thomas) Ambelang of Sheboygan, WI, Jacqueline Jean Erwin, Ph.D. of Culver, IN, and Katherine Elizabeth (aka Twinky) (Richard) Satterthwaite of Stevens Point, WI.

New literacy program to put more books in kids’ hands by RENAE CALDWELL Staff Writer Sparta’s Director of Instructional Services spoke to the personnel and educational initiatives committee about a new literacy initiative this week. Liz Dostal provided an overview of recommendations made by a literacy committee. The committee included teachers and administrators who met several times per month beginning last October. The group was formed as part of a five-year, $750,000 Department of Defense grant -- Project Bold Shift -- that will allow the district to improve student learning. A portion of the grant is aimed at increasing reading achievement. Dostal indicated the committee looked at the current literacy model, international literacy standards, and noted gaps and strengths in the district’s current approach. It weighed pros and cons of methods and available instructional materials and settled on the Lucy Calkin’s Units of Study. In an effort to allow the teachers to have a voice on the program they will be learning about and implementing, all administration abstained from voting. The program is a balanced approach to literacy instruction. Students will learn foundational reading skills, and spend more time reading. The program relies on direct instruction and access to a variety of books for students, according to Dostal. There also will be more choices for students as opposed to having everyone read the same thing. Implementation will cost about $80,800, broken down over several years, and split between grant money, referendum funds and the curriculum budget. The program will be implemented over time, beginning with curriculum writing and professional development for kindergarten and first grade this year. “Literacy isn’t all about the materials you buy, but the training and professional learning you provide the teachers in the classroom,” said Dostal. Dostal plans to have the program fully implemented for kindergarten through grade five students by the 2019-2020 school year. The personnel and educational initiatives committee recommended the program for approval to the full board. Sparta Free Library Monthly Book Review All The Light We Cannot See by Anthony Doerr This 2014 novel has been 50 weeks on the New York Times Best Seller List, won the 2015 Pulitzer Prize for fiction, and the Andrew Carnegie medal for excellence in fiction. Set in occupied France during WWII, the novel centers on a blind French girl and a German boy whose paths will eventually cross. Marie-Laure LeBlanc is the daughter of a widowed master locksmith at the Museum of Natural History in Paris whom she often accompanies to work. Marie suffered from rapidly deteriorating eyesight before becoming fully blind due to cataracts at the age of 6. Her father promises that he will always be there for her and creates a wooden scale-model of their neighborhood in Paris for her to memorize by touch so that she is able to navigate by herself. He also keeps her mind sharp by hiding birthday gifts in intricate puzzle boxes that he carves. Marie learns to read Braille and her father gives her new novels in Braille to read, which becomes a passion for her. 8-year-old Werner Pfennig Duplicate Bridge Winners at Duplicate Bridge on Tuesday evening, Jan. 12, were: First place - Donna Mesner and Lucy Springer; Second place - Iona Hayter and Gail Schultz; and Third place - Ken Kuhn and Maila Kuhn.

Werner manages to repair the radio and his natural skill for circuitry becomes apparent. He and Jutta tune in and listen to a variety of programs, including a regular broadcast from France hosted by an older gentleman who shares stories about the world of science, skilfully framed so that even younger listeners can understand. Later, Werner joins the German Army as a radio specialist, and Marie and her father flee Paris for St. Malo to take refuge with her great-uncle Etienne, a recluse suffering shell-shock from the Great War. Unbeknownst to Marie-Laure, her father has been entrusted with the Sea of Flames or one of three exact copies, all of which must be hidden to keep them out of the Germans’ hands. He conceals it in a small wooden replica of Etienne’s house within the model he makes of Saint-Malo so Marie can navigate their new town. A novel of perseverance and redemption, it will capture your heart and mind.

MONROE COUNTY DEMOCRAT THURSDAY, January 14, 2016 Page 9 CLOUDS (Continued from Front Page) fense coordinator, he led the county through preparations and prevention measures during the Cuban Missile Crisis. There were fallout shelters throughout the county, such as the basement in the Tomah City Hall, courthouse and police station, even the Norwalk Tunnel. They are one thousand times safer in the event of radiation. The shelters were stocked with crackers, candy and water so occupants could survive in the event of an attack. Stelter worked with local fire departments and police departments, attending their meetings and supporting their missions and causes. He also was instrumental in helping start various first responder groups going in the county. Kendall had the first box type ambulance in the county and Sparta and Tomah were right behind. One of Stelter’s most personally satisfying accomplishments is membership in the Sheriff’s Reserve. In 1966, the federal government started auxiliary police throughout towns and cities in the country to provide extra support to emergency personnel in case of an evacuation or other events. Over the years, the name of the group has changed from the police auxiliary to the Sheriff’s Posse and now the Sheriff’s Reserve. Stelter and fellow member Elroy Olson have been members since its start, and are still active today. The group has 35 current members and is always taking new sign-ups. There is a class going through training right now. Stelter has maintained his pilot license for 56 years, still flying every chance he gets. The Tomah Flying Club, incorporated in 1968, is one of the oldest flying clubs in the United States. Stelter remembers getting the call asking him to join. “I hadn’t done much flying but I loved everything about it,” he said. “We didn’t have much money then, and the members were asked to help pay back the loan to get it off the ground. It was ten dollars a month so I saved my nickels to do my part.” Over the last 56 years, Stelter only hit a bird once and has had five emergency landings, none of them very scary. Once, he landed in a hayfield on his way back from a search and rescue mission. The passenger was nervous because of noise from a loose fairing, which didn’t affect flight, but was really loud. They landed in the field, Stelter got his tools out, fixed it and they took off again. During his time in the civil air patrol, Stelter trained other individuals, ran the program and spent significant time at the Tomah Airport, or Bloyer Field. There is nothing he loves more than sharing the experience of flight with others. “The airport is my second home,” he jokes. “My wife is an airport window.” Now retired other than his volunteer efforts, Stelter is the Flying Eagle Coordinator at Bloyer Field. The Young Eagles program began in 1997. The program allows youth interested in aviation to experience one flight, for free, with a pilot. Stelter estimates he has flown over 1,900 kids in nearly two decades. “Of that group, probably 5% are in aviation in some way – pilots, mechanics, something like that,” he said. The Flying Eagle program goes one step beyond the Young Eagles. There are no dues or fees to be part of the Flying Eagles, and allows cadets (7-17 years of age) and adults (18 years and older) to continue to be close to aviation. The group uses the flying club’s planes. The Tomah Flying Club has two aircraft- a two-place Cessna 150 for training and a four-place Cessna 172 for giving rides. Stelter is always looking for a reason to get in the air. “There’s more flying I want to do,” he says with a smile. Lugar de Reunión--Scenic Bluffs opens art contest to community Lugar de Reunión-Scenic Bluffs (LdR-SB) is holding a community art contest to design a large scale mural at the Latino resource center located in Sparta. The contest is open to all interested artists and individuals in the area to design a foursection wall mural which will be featured at the entrance of Lugar de Reunion, (“A Place to Gather”). A panel of community members, along with the LdRSB Advisory Committee, will review each submission and vote on their favorite. The winning artist will receive a surprise gift, as well as public recognition of their work when it is placed in its permanent location. Lugar de Reunion-Scenic Bluffs moved to their new location in Sparta at 201 E. Franklin Street in August 2015. The new space is housed in the lower level of the Sparta Area School District Administration building. In partnership with the Sparta School District and with support from individuals and businesses in the Monroe County community, LdR-SB continues to be a reliable resource for Latino families in the area offering a wide variety of services including language and literacy classes, employment assistance, health education and cultural arts and enrichment classes. When submitting design proposals to LdR-SB for the mural project, artists should consider the following: •Focus on community, Hispanic/Latino culture and positive cross-cultural relationships. •The final mural will be made up of four panels; each panel will be four-feet wide and seven-feet tall. •Submitted drawings and paintings should be sized appropriately (for example, 4 sections, each 4 inches wide by 7 inches tall). •Final works should be submitted to Andrea Culletto via email: andreaculletto@gmail. com or by dropping the designs off at the Lugar de Reunión location during posted business hours. (Please use the Spring Street entrance). •Deadline for submissions is FEBRUARY 10th, 2016. •The winning design will begin large scale production March – May, with a tentative installation date at the end of May (weather permitting). For more information on LdRSB call (608) 269-2944 or visit the Scenic Bluffs website at www.scenicbluffs.org/Services/ Lugar-de-Reunion. Leon crash closes Highway 27 for an hour by PAT MULVANEY Editor A van versus semi accident in Leon Tuesday resulted in a fuel spill that closed Highway 27 for about an hour. According to Sparta Fire District Chief Mike Arnold, the van, driven by Fabian Mendoza, 29, Wilton, was pulling onto Highway 27 from Jancing Avenue at around 10:20 a.m., when he struck a southbound semi pulling an empty flatbed trailer. The van punctured the semi’s fuel tank, spilling around 25 gallons of diesel fuel. “There was quite a bit of damage to the fuel and tank,” said Arnold. Police closed the highway for an hour while a Monroe County Highway Department crew cleaned the spill. Neither Mendoza nor the driver of the semi, 40-year old William Nummerdor of Desoto, were injured. Both vehicles were towed from the scene. The Monroe County Sheriff’s Department and Wisconsin State Patrol provided assistance. The two vehicles involved in a crash in Leon Tuesday sustained extensive damage and had to be towed from the scene. The photo of the semi shows its punctured fuel tank. Diaper Drive The 8th grade students at Queen of the Apostles School in Tomah are wrapping up their annual diaper drive. This year’s theme is “No One Likes Change - Except for Babies”. Families First of Monroe County have expressed a real need for such a necessity in our community. Donations are brought in by school and church families. Although anyone can drop off a donation. Diapers of all sizes are needed, especially sizes 4 & 5. Pull-ups, wipes and diaper ointment would also help those in need. While the drive runs for a few weeks, the need for diapers exists all year. The 8th grade students hope to not only stock the shelves at Families First, but also to raise awareness of this basic need. SCOUT (Continued from Front Page) and field account could be used to offset monies not raised. The new sign will be placed next to the steps on the hill leading to the entry of the track. Engh hopes to have it completed and in place by this spring. “I want it done before the end of track season,” he said. The finance and facilities committee recommended approval to the full board. The Boy Scouts’ Gateway Area Council must still grant him approval of the project. Tomah Hospice, Life Choices Palliative Care programs receive Gold Seal The Tomah Hospice Touch & Life Choices Palliative Care programs have earned The Joint Commission’s Gold Seal of Approval(r) for home care accreditation by demonstrating continuous compliance with its performance standards. The Gold Seal of Approval(r) is a symbol of quality that reflects an organization’s commitment to providing safe and effective patient care. Tomah hospice director Mary Rezin said the programs underwent a rigorous, unannounced on-site survey in September at which time a team of Joint Commission surveyors evaluated compliance with home care standards including the provision of care, treatment and services, emergency management, human resources, individual rights and responsibilities, and leadership. “Our hospice and palliative care staff continues to work together to strengthen the continuum of care and deliver and maintain optimal home care services for those in our area,” said Rezin. “Achieving Joint Commission accreditation is a major step toward maintaining excellence and continually improving the services.” Established in 1988, The Joint Commission’s Home Care Accreditation program supports the efforts of its accredited organizations to help deliver safe, high quality care and services. More than 6,000 home care programs currently maintain accreditation, awarded for a three-year period, by The Joint Commission. “When individuals engage a home care provider they want to be sure that provider is capable of providing safe, quality care,” said Margherita Labson, RN, M.S., executive director, Home Care Accreditation program, The Joint Commission. “As the home care setting becomes increasingly popular, it is important that home care providers are able to demonstrate that they are capable of providing safe, high quality care. Accreditation by The Joint Commission and the gold seal serve as an indication that the organization has demonstrated compliance to these recognized standards of safe and quality care.” The Tomah Hospice Touch and Life Choices Palliative Care programs operate from a main office at 601 Straw Street, Tomah with a satellite office in Friendship providing care to residents in Monroe, Jackson, Juneau, Adams, Sauk and Vernon counties. Hospice services are also available at their 8-bed Serenity House located at 601 Straw Street, Tomah.

Autumn. How to keep plugging on your New Year’s resolution Many people make New Year’s resolutions each year, and that trend is unlikely to change in 2016. But if history is any guide, few people are likely to achieve their resolutions. A University of Scranton study published in the Journal of Clinical Psychology found that just 8 percent of people who make New Year’s resolutions achieve those resolutions. The study indicated that time may be the ultimate enemy with regard to achieving New Year’s resolutions. While 75 percent of those making resolutions maintained their focus through the first week, that figure dropped to 64 percent by the end of the first month before dipping all the way to 46 percent after six months. So how can you make this year the year when your New Year’s resolution becomes a reality? Consider the following tips. •Don’t go it alone. One of the best ways to realize your New Legal Notices January 14, 21 NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING NoticeisherebygiventhattheMonroe CountyZoningBoardofAdjustmentwill examineatapublichearingthePetition for Variance of Ezra J.

Any person may appear in person or by his/her agent or attorney, to give testimony for or against this matter. AlisonElliott MonroeCountyZoningAdministrator WNAXLP Year’s resolution is to enlist the help of a friend. For example, if your goal is to lose weight, then start going to the gym with your spouse or a friend who works out regularly. The buddy system can provide just the motivation you need, and having a friend there to offer support can help you stay focused on those days when your will to keep going starts to wane. •Be as specific as possible. Vague resolutions leave too much wiggle room, and that can compromise your ability to achieve your goal. Set specific goals with clear benchmarks so you can celebrate your progress as the year goes on. If your goal is to save ‘X’ amount of money in the next year, divide that number by 12 and aim to reach that smaller figure by the end of each month. •Be realistic. Some people fail to achieve their resolutions because they simply set the bar too high. While it’s good to push yourself, don’t choose a resolution that’s unrealistic. If you do, you may quit early if you realize you aren’t making enough progress despite your putting forth your best efforts, or you might take an unhealthy approach in an attempt to circumvent some of the obstacles in your way. If your goal is to lose weight, speak with your physician first to determine a weight loss goal that is healthy and reasonable. •Expect a few bumps in the road. En route to achieving your resolution, expect a few bumps in the road. Life is never entirely predictable, and there will be a few unforeseen events over the course of the year that may throw you off target. Anticipate and accept such obstacles so they don’t derail your efforts. New Year’s resolutions do not always become a reality. But there are several ways to make this the year you finally realize your goals.

Norwalk Library News Tomah Memorial Hospital finance department assistant Kristi Muehlenkamp, left, presented $805 ceremonial checks to Tomah Neighbor for Neighbor Food Pantry board member Terry Winchel, center, and Boys and Girls Clubs of West-Central Wisconsin Tomah Club director Maretta Budde. The funds were collected from hospital staff that donated $5 to wear jeans or their favorite hospital scrubs the fourth Friday of each month in 2015. Tomah Memorial Jeans Program supports healthy lifestyles A yearlong fundraising event at Tomah Memorial Hospital will help teach children healthy habits and provide food for area families. Hospital staff recently donated $805 to the Tomah Boys and Girls Club and Tomah’s Neighbor for Neighbor Food Pantry as part of the hospital’s annual Jeans for Charity program. “The $1,610 was collected from hospital employees who donated $5 to wear jeans or their favorite scrubs to work the fourth Friday of each month in 2015,” said hospital marketing & public relations director Eric Prise. “Our PUZZLE ANSWERS CROSSWORD ANSWER SUDOKU staff decided where the money would be donated by voting at the beginning of the year for two not for profit groups to split the funds.” Boys and Girls Clubs of WestCentral Wisconsin Tomah Club director Maretta Budde said the donation will help support a new ‘Healthy Habits’ program. “Right now we’re in the process of creating a kitchen and working on our healthy lifestyles program,” said Budde. “We’re going to start serving after school meals to the kids and this year we’re focusing on healthy eating and healthy cooking and teaching children skills that they need for their lifetime.” She said this past month about 90 children visited the Tomah club each day. Neighbor For Neighbor Food Pantry board member Terry Winchel said the donation will help support operations at the local pantry which provides food for over 500 households each month. Prise said 2015 marked the 10th and final year of the fundraising program which has donated more than $12,000 over the years to area organizations. He said hospital officials are looking at different ways for staff to continue to support area groups in the future. New DVD: •War Room, starring Priscilla C. Shirer, T. C.

Bangor managed to rally in the second half, however, outscoring the Mustangs 30-23 to score the comeback victory and keep its winning streak alive. Alea Fortier finished with 14 points to pace the Cards on the offensive end of the floor, while teammate Emma Wittmershaus finished with a dozen points.

The 10thranked Norsemen edged Sparta 49-48. Photo by J.P. Schaller. You could hear Sparta head coach Mario Coursey encouraging his players throughout the second half Tuesday night. “Don’t stop, don’t stop, don’t stop.” The Spartans didn’t, and their efforts were nearly rewarded with an upset of 10th-ranked Westby in nonconference boys basketball action at Sparta’s Alton Ask Gymnasium Instead, the red-hot Norsemen – winners of eight straight – held on for a 49-48 victory over the Spartans, who were again without the services of leading-scorer Caleb Schauf. “To be honest, it’s not a heartbreaking loss,” offered first-year coach Coursey. “Understand that every game we’re in we improve. We try to fix everything when we come up short and the kids are pushing hard,” he continued. “Yes, it was a tough loss, but it was a good loss and we’re still working to improve.” The game was a back-and-fourth battle from the start. Westby built a lead early in the first half, but Sparta battled back to cut the lead to 2521 with less than two minutes remaining in the frame. The Norsemen went on top 27-21 with 1:13 remaining, but Matthew Pauley made a nice driving dish to Vegas Cruz, who hit a layup as time expired to cut the deficit to 27-23 at intermission. Westby came out hot in the second half, increasing its lead to 34-26 in the opening two minutes, before a Pauley three-pointer cut the gap to 34-29. Isaac McPherson and Cruz followed with back-to-back buckets, pulling Sparta to within a point of the lead at 34-33. After a Westby free throw, a basket by Travis Goede knotted the score at 35-35 with 11:38 left on the clock. The Norsemen answered with six straight points, before a Jaydon Haag trey cut the deficit to 41-38. Pauley followed with back-to-back hoops to give Sparta a 42-41 advantage with 6:54 left in the game. Westby bounced back again, this time with an eight-point run to regain the lead at 49-42 with just over two minutes remaining. McPherson hit a driving layup and a threepointer that pulled Sparta within a point of the lead with 27 seconds remaining and a missed Westby free throw gave the Spartans the ball back with 12 ticks left on the clock. Sparta had trouble inbounding the ball after a timeout and a last-second shot fell just shy, allowing Westby to escape with the win. McPherson poured in a game-high 16 points to lead the Spartan boy cagers on the offensive end of the floor, while Pauley finished a 13-point effort. Haag knocked down a pair of three-pointers to finish with six points for Sparta, followed by Goede with five and Cruz and Jacob Edwards with four each. Jesse Solberg scored four points to lead Westby. Despite the narrow loss, Coursey was optimistic with his team’s effort on the hardwood. “The goal for us on defense – we want to hold our opponents to under 50 points,” he said. “I just wanted a complete game and they gave me a complete game,” continued Coursey. “We played defense, rebounded and we’re running on offense. We’re building.” “We really picked it up on defense and rebounding,” Coursey continued. “We fixed our issues. We rebounded and played defense very well tonight.” Schauf, who was averaging 18 points a game before he suffered an ankle sprain in a holiday tournament in West Salem, has been sidelined for the past four games. Coursey said he participated in a light practice on Monday, but was unable to play in Tuesday’s nonconference game. “He goes back to the doctor on Thursday. Hopefully, we can get him cleared for Central on Friday,” he added. The loss was the fifth straight for Sparta, which fell to 3-8 overall, while Westby improved its record to 9-1. The Spartans are back in action Friday, when they travel to Central for a 7:30 p.m. Mississippi Valley Conference match-up with the second-ranked Red Raiders.

Nate Venner got credit for the assist on Smith’s game-winning goal, which gave the Timberwolves Dancers fare well at large competition a 2-1 overtime victory over LoganCentral at Green Island Ice Arena in La Crosse. Tomah jumped out to an early lead, when Jared Schouten scored an unassisted goal just over six minutes into the first period. The Timberwolves were solid on defense throughout, maintaining the one-goal for the remainder of the opening frame. The defensive battle continued into the second stanza, as both teams failed to score, allowing Tomah to take the 1-0 lead into the final frame. Things looked good for the Timberwolves in the third period as well, until Red Ranger Max Hengel scored a shorthanded goal with the help of an assist off the stick of Drew Kjos to knot the score at 1-1 with 11:41 remaining on the clock. Both teams went scoreless down the stretch, forcing the overtime period. The deadlock continued for seven minutes into the extra frame, before Smith struck with the game-winner. Brody Pierce turned in a stellar performance in the net for the Timberwolves, stopping 26 LoganCentral shots on goal. Red Ranger Willem Alvarado finished with 25 saves in the net.

The Falcons came out strong against the fourthranked Cardinals on Bangor’s home hardwood, building a 30-26 lead at the half. Bangor rallied in the second half, however, outscoring Brookwood 51-36 to pull away for its 10th win in a row to start the season. As they’ve done all year, the Cards used a balanced attack on the offensive end of the floor, with 10 players scoring for Bangor. Three Cardinal cagers – Drew Johnson, Jack Reader and Luke Reader – combined to score 48 points. Johnson led Bangor with an 18-point effort, while Jack and Luke Reader finished with 16 and 14 points, respectively.

Skaters fall to Onalaska by JOHN PAUL SCHALLER Sports Editor It was another rough night for the Spartan skaters Tuesday, as Sparta suffered a 16-0 loss to ninth-ranked Onalaska in Mississippi Valley Conference hockey action at Sparta Ice Arena. The loss was the second in less than a week to the MVC leading Hilltoppers. Onalaska defeated Sparta 14-0 last Thursday in a MVC matchup at the Omni Center.

MONROE COUNTY DEMOCRAT THURSDAY, January 14, 2016 WHITETAIL HABITAT SOLUTIONS Page 3B SPARTA - 900 Maple Avenue • Phone 608-269-1277 • www.riverbank.biz • BANGOR - 1606 Commercial Street • Phone 608-486-2356 By Jeff Sturgis Whitetail shed hunting habitat clues Have you found any this year? There is nothing like finding an ivory giant during the annual whitetail shed hunting season! But what does it mean? What do your findings reveal to you about the movements of the mature bucks in and around the lands that you hunt? I believe that a shed offers you much more than just a piece of bone from a reclusive monarch, but instead an opportunity to experience an intimate look into the mysteries of mature buck behavior. Whitetail shed hunting season thoughts to ponder Last year I ran into close to 30 sheds on client parcels in seven states, including a pile on a Kansas/Colorado parcel. The majority of my client visits occur during December through June, so as I pass through the peaks of shed season I really enjoy keeping an eye out for my next shed, in the next state I visit! I rarely find any on my own hunting land…but is that a bad thing? Mature bucks in particular experience huge shifts in preferred habitat locations from summer to fall to winter and then back to summer ranges. Do the sheds you find show you this? Often, where a buck leaves a shed is not where he will be hanging out in the fall. During 12 years on my old lease we found a total of six sheds (even including neighbor finds)…but yet we routinely had daytime pictures of roughly 30 different bucks during the bulk of the season. Is your land a fall buck range, a Winter shed range, or are you blessed to have a combination of both? I love finding sheds…but even more, I love the entire puzzle of putting the pieces together of mature buck habitat use by the local giants. Sheds can be an important clue for whitetail habitat and hunting management efforts. The greatest and most important shed hunting question Why does your land have more whitetail shed hunting opportunities? ….Or more hunting opportunities than sheds? To know the answer to that is to gain an incredible understanding of preferred mature buck habitat! I was with a hunter a few years ago as we walked a client’s land together. The hunter explained that on his land, he found over 40 sheds the previous year. The sheds were found in and around his brassica plot that was located adjacent to a massive Red Cedar thicket. This is a great find, right? Well, he proceeded to explain to me that at the same time he barely saw a buck during the hunting season, including zero mature buck encounters. On one hand the guy had an outstanding shed hunting parcel with high quality winter cover and food, but did his land really offer an opportunity to attract, hold and grow a quality herd? In his home state of Illinois, the hunter had very little to worry about as it related to any winter severity or starvation losses. The landowner did, however, have to worry about the neighbor’s shooting young bucks and the resulting losses due to hunting pressure. Where does your land rank in it’s ability to offer great whitetail shed hunting opportunities, or not? How does your land rank when it comes to producing a quality herd with quality hunting opportunities? Is your land peaking at the wrong time? My own hunting grounds As I pointed out earlier, during 12 years on my old lease we found literally, six sheds (including neighbor finds)…but yet we routinely had daytime pictures of roughly 30 different bucks during the bulk of the season. Boy, we really struggled over this fact during the first few years! Can you imagine? We thought we had an incredible fall the previous year, only to completely vacuum our entire land during the winter and spring to rarely find a shed. It was actually a little depressing. Our initial thoughts ranged from the majority of the bucks being shot, trespassing shed hunters and poachers. However, by leaving our cameras well into the winter months, we discovered that we actually did have a great buck herd that was being built on the land. For years our efforts were not being wasted, it was just that the bucks weren’t on our lands when they dropped their sheds. We also came to the conclusion that finding a shed on our land had very little to do with how our hunting season would eventually unfold. It took a few years to grasp the concept, but it’s not unlike the fact that Whitetail deer sheds like the monster pictured above are highly sought after by hunters in the off-season. They can offer hunters an intimate look into the mysteries of mature buck behavior. Contributed photo. many summer buck habitats are actually very poor fall habitats. Although not finding any sheds on the land that you hunt could be a bad thing, it most often reveals that your land is peaking at a time when it has the greatest potential of positively impacting your herd and habitat efforts. Conclusion Whitetail shed hunting season can be an incredible time of the year! It’s a great time to scout the woods while having absolutely zero impact on your hunting opportunities; opportunities that are still many months away. But even more important than an incredible find of over 80 inches… what do those clues of bone reveal to you about the seasonal shifts of mature buck behavior? It pays to constantly ask “Why?” It isn’t enough to find a shed but instead to earnestly seek the pieces of the puzzle that you may be lacking on your own lands when it comes to the period of time your habitat needs to be at it’s peak - Whitetail Hunting Season. Ice fishing derby on Perch Lake Saturday A village of Eskimo ice shacks is part of the landscape on Chetac Lake in Sawyer County. The “shantytown” was home to outdoor writer Mark Walters and a group of friends who spent two days in January fishing for crappies, walleye and northern pike on the frozen lake.

For most Wisconsin hardwater enthusiasts “first ice” was not until after Christmas. My first ice fishing getaway was just completed, and by all accounts it was extremely successful. Please read further for details on how to have a really good time in Wisconsin when there is ice. Friday, Jan. 1 High 27, low 16 Chetac Lake in Sawyer County covers 1,920-acres and has an abundant supply of eight to 10-inch crappie, as well as northern pike, walleye, perch and bluegill. Paul Bucher is my good buddy from Cumberland, who I try to have one or two fun outings a year with. Preston Johnson, who lives in Rice Lake, is a lot of fun and a hardcore fishermen. Chris Schiefelbein lives on Lake Chetac and is very into catching fish and socializing with his pals. Chris was our informant and found the fish for us the first day that there was somewhat safe ice on Chetac. Joey Dushek is my 22-year-old stepson, who is the young guy in the group, and like the other guys, is very good at catching crappie in 26-feet of water with electronics. My official position is that of head Fun Master, who comes up with a date each year that everyone works around for this trip, but I’m not very good at catching crappie in deep water. So we are staying at a really nice home on the water, whose very kind owners are snowbirds (thank you). We are using fourwheelers to travel and there is four to five inches of ice, so we are fishing in my Eskimo Fatfish, which is about 13-by-eight feet literally a cabin on the ice. For this trip we are breaking in a brand new Fatfish that is insulated and everyone is impressed. After a three-hour drive and settling in, we hit the ice about 1 p.m. with a plan of fishing until somewhere around midnight. Today it is Paul, Joey, Chris and myself in the shack with plenty of friends in nearby shacks. The crappie action is steady, but it is not a slaughter. Most of the action is about six feet off the bottom in 26 feet of water. We also have tip-ups out that, at first are set for gators, and as day became night, switched over for walleye. Over the course of the weekend we caught five snakes and no walleye. Our comfortable abode is lit with propane lights that run off 20-pound cylinders and later in the night Paul Bucher heated up scalloped potatoes and ham. At dark we had about 35 crappie between the four of us that were all in the nine-inch range. Mr. Schiefelbein likes to call them “lobsters of the lake”. When we pulled tip-ups and headed to camp, we had about seventy extremely tasty crappie between the four of us. If you were outside of our shack and listening, you would pretty much hear nonstop laughter. Saturday, Jan. 2 High 32, low 19 Today, Preston joined our ranks, I probably should have charged the battery on my Vexilar (it showed the pretty colors, but not my jig), we caught a lot of fish and we laughed a lot. At one time, I had a flag and missed a small fish right at the hole. Chris “Bein” was watching the experience and, as usual, verbally abusing me. Low and behold I had a line hooked onto my tip-up and though I had to pull really hard, I broke it off from the tree that it “must have been snagged on.” Chris starts pulling in the other end and there is about a 24-inch snake on it and all the line from someone’s tip-up. Nobody’s flag went up, so we figured it was a fish that had been hooked a day or two earlier. When we showed the guys the set up, Joey claimed it was his rig and I may have put the entire spool into a very large mess. Joey’s flag never went up and there was some debate as to why that may have happened. Well after dark, I burned a precooked hot dish that had kind of froze and even my dog would not eat. This trip is so much fun that we must return next year! Sunset Schnitzler’s Sports Store in Sparta will hold its third annual ice fishing derby on Perch Lake Saturday.
