Founding volunteer

Kayde Sheaffer, 8, of Verona, and the wildcat mascot enthusiastically flag down passersby to their lemonade stand last Thursday. The stand earned
$150 toward the Country View PTO tornado relief fund.
Instead, it was one of many fundraisers held to help raise money for Country View Elementary School, which was
heavily damaged by the EF3 tornado that
tore up the northwest side of Verona on
June 17.
By the end of the day, Shaeffer and
Matilla had collected over $150 for the
PTOs tornado relief fund.
This was a small, yet pivotal part, in the
communitys overall fundraising efforts,
which have already brought in more than
$11,000 to help out teachers. This success is not only due to the creativity of
the fundraisers, but also to the generosity of the community and their consistent
giving of more than what is asked.
While most of the estimated $4 million

As major reconstruction
of Verona Road and the
Beltline continues, drivers
should prepare for a major
traffic switch this week.
Crews are finishing up
work on the new northbound lanes of Verona
Road and both north and
southbound drivers will
be shifted to that new road
for the remainder of the
construction season. That
switch is scheduled to be
completed by the morning of Thursday, July 17,
according to the Wisconsin
Department of Transportation.
To safely and efficiently complete this overnight switch, periodic turn
restrictions will be in effect
to and from Verona Road
(in this work zone) between
8 p.m. Wednesday, July 16
and 10 a.m. Thursday, July
17, a news release from
WisDOT read. Alternate
routes are encouraged during these hours.
A temporary closure of
the current Home Depot
entrance from Verona Road
was planned for this, project chief John Vesperman
told the Press. The entrance
will be shifted slightly to
the north in preparation for
the major switch.
Drivers should expect
delays as people get used
to the new traffic pattern,
WisDOT officials warned.
Still, people are encouraged to patronize local
Traffic will be shifted to the newly constructed northbound lanes of Verona Road, seen here on the left
side of the photo, by Thursday. Construction will continue through November.

Compassion fatigue
Compassion fatigue is a term that is often applied to people
who work in the helping professions, such as doctors,
nurses, teachers, and social workers, and refers to the
gradual decrease of compassion which these people sometimes feel in response to others suffering. It may be that
after seeing so much suffering we become desensitized to it.
Indeed, there is some evidence that everyone may be prone
to compassion fatigue through the medias portrayal of suffering people. Hearing everyday about Syrian refugees or
the homeless in America may make us less likely to respond
compassionately than if we were hearing about these unfortunate souls less often. People who are experiencing high
levels of stress and who have inadequate support networks
are more likely to experience compassion fatigue, perhaps
because they feel that no one is helping them with their
problems and they feel like they have nothing left in their
bucket to share. Since compassion is one of the essential
callings of the faithful, we should do our best to prevent
compassion fatigue by managing our own levels of stress
and by ensuring that we have a good support network in
place. And, we should remember that God is always there to
back us up.

dryer vents. It is a common assumption that your dyers lint trap catches all of the
lint produced from each load. This however, is not the case. Lint accumulates within your dryer duct system and creates a build-up. Not only do these blockages cause
your dryer to work harder, resulting in higher energy costs, the reduced air flow
through the vent causes excess heat and a backup of dryer exhaust gases creating a
fire hazard. With the combination of limited air flow, increased gases and heat trying

that you have your dryer vent cleaned once a year. In fact some insurance companies

summer. Common signs of canine anxiety include panting, trembling, pacing, whining
and being destructive. Here are some things you can do to help: (1) provide your
dog with a safe hiding place at home, away from outside sounds and light an inner
basement room is good, (2) a canine Thundershirt can be helpful for mild noise anxiety,
(3) provide some background music to block out other sounds, and (4) engage your dog
in obedience or play activities to distract her. It is important to reassure your pet but not
to over-indulge her since that may reinforce anxious behavior. Other products that may
help relax your dog include dog appeasing pheromone (Adaptil) diffusers or collars, as
well as anti-anxiety oral medications available from veterinarians. A new casein-based
product call Zylkene has also shown to help calm your dog. You should discuss the
best comprehensive treatment plan with your dogs doctor.

Q. My mother is elderly and is having a difficult time living at home independently. What are some options for living
arrangements?
A. There are many options for the alternate living arrangements for the elderly. If your mother is having difficulty living
independently because of stairs and obstacles within the home, then a senior apartment complex may be her best option.
Senior apartments may also be known as independent living apartments as the person lives in the apartment without physical
assistance, yet has more social opportunities than living in their own home. Independent living apartments are typically "senior
friendly" with grab bars in the bathroom, wider hallways, shorter carpet, minimal use of stairs and many on-site amenities to
help make living independently easier. If your mother is having difficulty getting dressed, cooking, bathing, and performing

toileting, cooking, laundry, and light dressing and bathing needs. Many assisted living facilities offer services with a separate

A. The basics: Roth contributions arent deductible, but earnings arent taxed.
Regular 401ks ARE deductible, providing real tax savings now. But distributions
are fully taxable. Taxes in regular 401ks arent eliminated, just deferred. That
could work out well if youre in a lower tax bracket when you take out your
money. But lots of taxpayers find themselves in higher than expected tax brackets
when they retire. Roth accounts can be particularly attractive for young taxpayers
because of the additional time their money can grow. If your money doubles
every 7 to 10 years, Roth contributions at age 30 could quadruple or quintuple
by the time you reach retirement. Tax free growth makes a big difference when
youre younger. Even if your income is totally predictable, tax rates arent. So
choosing the best option may be a matter of luck. If youre unsure, a conversation
with your tax and financial advisor(s) could help.
