Cadott School Board
Board agrees: No cuts to education

By Kayla Peche
The majority of voices were heard at the
April 13 regular Cadott School Board meeting
following two Cadott budget forums and open
public comment. In a unanimous vote, there
will be no cuts to education in Cadott.
After the proposed state budget by Gov.
Scott Walker to cut state aid for public
schools, the Cadott School District administration made possible plans to stay on budget,
since 65 percent of their revenue came from
this aid.
The district held two public forums, March
12 and April 8, which Damon Smith, Cadott
district administrator, said were to educate,
communicate and keep the community proactive.
It is about being proactive, Smith said.
We need to work together. We have the potential to be the best school of our size in the
state. That is our goal.
At the forums, Smith talked about three
possibilities the district could do to be proactive against the budget cuts. The first was to
talk to the local legislator to explain the effect
this budget will have on public schools. Second was to make some budget cuts to educational opportunities, and the third was to
increase local taxes.
Parents, teachers and community members
came forward at the meetings, discussing how
the cuts to education would be the worst possibility.
Budget cuts are bad, said a parent at the
April 13 regular Cadott School Board meet-
Cadott village

out hydrants
Residents of the Village of
Cadott are being notified that
for the next 60 days, the
Cadott Village water crew
will open hydrants and
flush water lines for the
spring season.
Be aware that during this
time, you may experience brown water in
your household lines.
If you do, flush your interior home lines
by turning on water faucets, until clear water
is running.
If there are any problems contact the
Cadott Village Office at (715) 289-4282.
ing. These extra curricular activities and

things help the children to be interactive and
engaged; to cut Jr. high athletics will hurt high
school level sports.
The cuts on the agenda for the April 13
meeting were district support staff, busing
within two miles of school, adviser/co-curricular/committee pay, extended athletic transportation, advanced placement classes,
elementary band/choir and Jr. high athletics.
There were also discussions about increasing
fees for athletic participation, course materials
and instrument rental.
One parent said she appreciated the information and the willingness of the district to
communicate with the public.
I wouldnt have known these cuts were
going on if it wasnt for the forum, the Cadott
resident said. But I would hate to see the programs cut. Iwould rather increase my taxes
and invest in the future here.
Another resident said increasing fees would
only hurt people who shouldnt be hurt.
Increasing fees is depriving our children
of programs they need, he added.
All comments and opinions of the public
were discussed and considered in closed session. Once reconvened, the board members
went one-by-one through the educational cuts,
each agreeing to no cuts, and to keep these
educational opportunities in place.
The board adjourned the meeting, and had
no further discussion on how the proposed
budget cuts would be managed.
Although no cuts were made and the proposed budget hasnt gone through, Smith advised the public to not give up on fighting
against Walkers proposal.
The pressure that we are putting on our

Lake Holcombe Town Board
Lowest bids approved for 303rd Avenue

By Monique Westaby
It was the last regular meeting for town board members Robert
Bayerl, John Bell and Barry Hoke, and as part of their regular meeting April 9, Bayerl introduced the newly elected chairman (Beau
Bowlin) and supervisors (Brian Guthman and Dave Staudacher).
The three new elected board members are here tonight, said Bayerl. They will be sworn in later this evening. The annual meeting is
coming up on the 21st of this monththat is the turning point for
going over to the other board.
In action items, the board unsealed road bids for this summer, for
the graveling and repaving of 303rd Avenue. Three bids were received for gravel, including one from Chippewa County, one from
Olynick and one from Haas.

The board agreed to go with the lowest bid, from Olynick, for
$8.54 per yard, nearly $1 less per yard than Chippewa County and
over $3 less than Haas.
Bowlin said the differences were probably because of hauling distance.
That trucking is a very critical part, said Bayerl.
For asphalt, the board also went with the lowest bid, which came
from Chippewa County at $77,340 for the 20 x 3,036 foot stretch.
Monarch also submitted a bid, which came in at $82,250.
Bayerl said the amount between $77,000 and $82,000 makes

OPINION
COURIER SENTINEL
Ten seconds later its gone, unless its not

By Monique Westaby
Managing Editor
Like most things,
Snapchat started as a
harmless way to send
temporary photos to
friends and family; a
quick snapshot into what
a person was doing when they were doing it.
But it quickly turned into an avenue for other,
not-so-harmless, not-so-temporary photos
and videos.
For those unfamiliar with the universal
smartphone app, it started in 2011, and
gained popularity in late 2012, when 20 million photos were shared each day. The idea
was to capture a moment via the apps camera, and send it to another user, with a selected time frame a person could view the
photo. Once the alloted time was done, the
picture was gone.
By February 2013, 60 million messages
were being sent daily, and by November
2013, that number increased to 400 million,
according to Snapchat.
Harmless right? Take a picture of anything
and in seconds it goes away, never to be seen
again. But lets not forget what were dealing
with digital files, pixels, technology. Is anything digital ever really gone?
Earlier this year, a 16-year-old from Pennsylvania was charged with first-degree murder after using the app to send a photo of his
victim to a classmate. The classmate took a
screenshot, and showed it to his parent, who
took it to police.
But screenshots arent the only way to save
photos; inMay 2013, Forbes reported photos
that have disappeared, can be retrieved.
According to Forbes: Richard Hickman of
Decipher Forensics found that its possible
to pull Snapchat photos from Android phones
simply by downloading data from the phone
using forensics software and removing
a .NoMedia file extension that was keeping the photos from being viewed on the device.
Since its launch, Snapchat has gone
through lawsuits regarding user privacy, but
that hasnt slowed users from taking and
sending photos and videos. Snapchat reports
700 million videos and photos are shared
daily as of May 2014.
The app is downloadable on any smartphone. Which means anyone with a smartphone can create an account, add friends and
follow stories; any stories.
In a survey conducted by voucher
cloud.net, 96 percent of children have cell
phones, with most of those receiving one by
the time they are seven years old. Digiday.
com reports Snapchat says 50 percent of its
users are ages 13-17, and the app is rated for
those 12 and above; but that doesnt stop
those seven-year-olds from downloading it.
Developments in the apps database have
allowed users to create stories; not just stories of themselves, but rather stories of users
who send them snaps. Some might be
celebrities snapchatting their favorite shoes,
while others are of city life in other parts of
the world, horse races or famous events.
The point is, anyone can follow any of
these stories. But these stories arent the
only ones out there. Some stories, not those
put out by Snapchat itself, but other users,
feature nudity, drugs and outright pornographic videos.
And not from places you might think. In

fact, last weekend, some of these story-snaps
were from your own backyard. No, not Milwaukee, not Green Bay, not Eau Claire, but
Cornell. Little old Cornell.
One snap showed a 10-second video of a
large bonfire surrounded by teens, with an
area code and Cornell, WI written on the
screen. In addition to at least 100 kids in the
first video, with over-21 beverages in hand,
the second recording featured a topless girl
dancing for the crowd, marked with the same
area code and city.
Did this girl know she was being recorded?
That her topless encounter was being sent to
hundreds, if not thousands, of viewers around
the world? Not only could viewers watch the
10-second video, but it stays on Snapchat
stories for 24 hours.
Anyone (including those seven-year-olds
who have smartphones) who followed this
story could watch this girl expose herself as

many times as they wanted for 24 hours. Was
she even 18? How many times was her photo
screenshotted and saved to random devices?
And what about the user who it was initially
sent to, who put it on their timeline for their
followers to see; what do they do with the
video?
This wasnt the first time girls exposed
themselves on the users Snapchat story. The
users story is filled daily with naked girls,
sex, marijuana, cocaine and other questionable activities.
Those who post to the page know where
its going, but do the people in their posts
know where its going? The site claims if a
person doesnt know their picture is being
taken, it wont be posted; but what about this
girl dancing in Cornell? Did the videographer
stop her and ask if it was OK to take the
video? On the other hand, if she made the
choice to flash everyone, does it matter?

Social media users can post what they
wish. Its part of the freedoms of living in
America. While a person may not agree with
it, its the reality we live in.
But what about your children? Do they understand that a 10-second photo doesnt
mean its gone forever? Do you check their
phones their text messages, their photos,
their Facebooks, their Snapchats? Are they
following stories that showcase these types
of photos and videos?
You cant stop everyone from doing or
posting things they shouldnt, but you can
keep tabs on what your own children are seeing or doing. It may seem OK to let your
child send snaps to their friends and follow
their stories, but what is your seven-year-old,
12-year-old, 15-year-old, really seeing (or
doing) on Snapchat, and who else is seeing
(and saving) it?
Awareness should include understanding

By Kayla Peche
April is designated
as Autism Awareness
Month, and with autism
being diagnosed more and
more often, it is important
to be educated.
According to Centers
of Disease Control and Prevention, one in
every 88 children is diagnosed with some
form of autism.
Autism is a complex neurobehavioral disorder that includes impairments in social interaction and developmental language and
communication skills combined with rigid,
repetitive behaviors. The disorder covers a
large spectrum of symptoms, skills and levels
of impairment, says WebMD.
Even if autism doesnt affect you directly,
it is important to do your part to make a difference and spread awareness about this
cause.
Become educated
Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD)includes five common classifications, according to WebMD. Autistic disorder refers to
problems with social interactions, communication and imaginative play in younger children.
Aspergers syndrome doesnt struggle with
language. In most cases, these children score
average or above average in intelligence, but
have social problems and limited interest
with other children. Pervasive developmental disorder is another ASD which children
have some autistic behaviors but dont fall
into the other categories.
The other two classifications are more specific. Children with Rett syndrome are usually severely cognitively impaired, and
female. Childhood disintegrative disorder is
very rare, and involves a child developing
normally for about two years, then losing
their communication skills.
Understanding the detection, diagnosis
and cause of autism is a first step, and the information about ASD can be found on the
web.
Make a donation
There are many nonprofit and advocacy
groups available for support and research.
Autism Speaks was founded in 2005, which
focuses on funding research, preventative
measures, treatments and ultimately a cure.
According to their website, they advocate on

behalf of those affected with autism and their
families.
Two additional organizations focused on
autism are Autism Society and Talk About
Curing Autism. Each of these organizations
are places you can volunteer, or make donations to not only this month, but as often as
possible.
Many retail stores offer resources and raise
money to help those affected by disabilities.
For example, this year, Build-A-Bear Workshop is offering an Autism Speaks bear. With
each bear purchased, some of the proceeds
are given directly to Autism Speaks.
Provide Support
If you cant provide financially, you can
always show support. A diagnosis does not
always mean families have simple ways of
coping. According to Autism Speaks, parents
are bombarded with treatment options and
choices to make on whats best for their
child.
Social networks can be a place for families
to find encouragement and connection, providing parents with treatment options by
hearing other parents stories. Each family
may have a different end result, but the extra
knowledge will help with the difficult decisions.
No matter what social media is used, the
connections made will bring families to professionals they might not have known, and
the realization they are not alone.
In Autism: A Mothers Perspective, from
aboutkidshealth.com, a mom answers questions about her opinion on having an autistic
son. The mom says her advice to other parents is to put their child into therapy as soon
as possible.
If you cant afford it, go to the library or
join a parent support group, and learn as
much as you can about how to help your
autistic child understand and to help you understand how to help them. It is amazing how
much it helps when you figure out how to
communicate and read your child.
Stop the negativity

Although families may need support, putting a negative outlook on ASDcan be the
worst way to spread awareness.
The Autism Narrative, by autismspectrumexplained.com, states that in the case of individuals with autism, you cant separate the
individual with autism from the disorder so
easily, and attacking the disorder can be, for
many, the same as attacking the person.
Families or those diagnosed with autism
may have struggles but this does not mean
we should feel bad for them, or make them
feel bad for having autism.
Dont Mourn For Us by Jim Sinclair, explains a perspective on the autism community:
You didnt lose a child to autism. You lost
a child because the child you waited for
never came into existence. That isnt the fault
of the autistic child who does exist, and it
shouldnt be our burden. We need and deserve families who can see us and value us
for ourselves, not families whose vision of us
is obscured by the ghosts of children who
never lived. Grieve if you must, for your own
lost dreams. But dont mourn for us. We are
alive. We are real. And were here waiting
for you.
Just by being aware of this negative outlook can be a step to stop it. Change the way
you treat people with ASD and promote the
understanding of the disorder.
It can be as simple as speaking up when
you hear someone say something negative or
ignorant about people with autism, or
protesting against advertisements and TV
shows that portray people with autism in a
negative light. Working together and taking
these small steps can defeat ignorance and
promote understanding of individuals with
autism.
During the month of April, acknowledge
Autism Awareness Month with education
and non-judgment, and be sure to show your
support because it can greatly change the
way autism is understood.
Give the world the best you have,

and the best will come back to you.

Cornell pilot dies in weekend plane crash
A plane crash in the Town of Eagle Point has left a family mourning after the pilot, 77-year-old Richard J. Felix,
of Cornell, died at the scene.
State Patrol honors law

enforcement dispatchers
From the WisDOT
During National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week,
April 12-18, the Wisconsin State Patrol will honor its law enforcement dispatchers, who communicate with officers on
patrol, and coordinate responses to traffic crashes and other
emergencies.
Congress has designated National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week as a time to recognize men and women who
are responsible for answering calls, for police, fire and emergency medical assistance and dispatching such assistance to
help save the lives and property of our citizens.
The State Patrol has 58 law enforcement dispatchers and
supervisory staff stationed at regional communications centers in Eau Claire, DeForest, Tomah, Waukesha, Fond du Lac,
Wausau and Spooner. In addition, State Patrol dispatchers
also assist DNR wardens and officers from federal agencies.
Our law enforcement dispatchers are well-trained and
dedicated professionals who have a critical role in effective
enforcement actions and responses to complex emergencies,
says Stephen Fitzgerald, state patrol superintendent. In life
or death situations, like traffic crashes, law enforcement dispatchers have the knowledge and experience to make quick
decisions under stressful conditions. Although our law enforcement dispatchers work behind the scenes, their efforts
have helped save lives and reduce serious injuries throughout
our state.

National Library Week: Libraries much more than books

By Tony Evers
State Superintendent
Todays libraries are more than just books. Increasingly
they are community institutions that help library patrons
learn literacy skills, navigate digital technology, find jobs,
research business opportunities and much more.
The April 12 to 18 observance of National Library Week
highlights the changing roles of libraries, librarians and library staff through the 2015 theme, Unlimited Possibilities
@ Your Library.
First sponsored as a national observance in 1958, National
Library Week celebrates the contributions of our nations libraries. All types of libraries public, school, academic and
special join the national observance.
Just how integral are libraries in Wisconsin communities?
In our state, library staff members regularly offer off-site
programs, story times, and early literacy programs at child
care centers, nursing homes, Head Start facilities, coffee
shops and after-school programs.
Public warned of Xcel utility scam

The Cornell Police Department, and the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and
Consumer Protection (DATCP) has received
reports about a utility scam in the state/area.
In this operation, scammers call residents
and businesses and falsely claim to represent
the local utility company, in this case Xcel Energy. They threaten account holders with a cancellation of services if an immediate payment
is not made. If you receive a similar call, hang
up and contact your service provider from the
number on your most recent bill.
Brian Hurt, Cornell chief of police, said the
COURIER SENTINEL
scam has hit the Cornell area, and hes received

several reports in the last few days. On call
back, Hurt said the scammer knew information
that made the call seem legitimate, but had information that could all be found online.
The City of Cornell residents do not even
have Xcel Energy, said Hurt. The city has
their own electric.
The DATCP says if a caller demands a utility
payment by prepaid debit card or wire transfer,
it is a scam. A scammer can also manipulate
caller ID displays to show the local utility companys name or number when they call.
Several Cornell firefighters masked up for a response to a house fire at the Jim
Hansen residence on 225th Avenue east of Cornell April 4. Dave Tonnancour, assistant chief 2, said an accumulation of lint and dust near a furnace started the
heating unit on fire. He said damage, contained to a 2 x 2 foot area, was minimal,
and the department quickly put out the fire and left. The Cornell Area Ambulance
also responded, but no treatment was needed.
Libraries are doing their part to close the digital divide and
level the playing field by providing free access to information
and technologies that many in their communities would be
hard pressed to find elsewhere. Public libraries are often the
only public space offering high speed internet access and
computers with current software to prepare resumes, cover
letters and presentations.
Librarians work with elected officials, small business owners, students and the public to discover and meet the needs
of their communities. Whether through e-books and technology classes, materials for English-language learners, programs for job seekers, or a safe haven in times of crisis,
librarians listen and respond to the communities they serve.
Libraries help to ensure the American dream and promote
democracy by providing service to all regardless of race, ethnicity, creed, age, ability, sexual orientation, gender identity,
or socio-economic status.
During the April observance of School Library Month and
the April 12-18 National Library Week celebration, please
join me for Unlimited Possibilities @ Your Library.

Tales of our Beginnings

Cadott Cornell Lake Holcombe areas
An English teacher at Lake Holcombe sent their students to interview a senior
citizen about the good old days. Here are some of the responses from Holcombe area residents:
One fellow remembered attending the old Holcombe school that burned down
in 1932.
Another bemoaned the loss of freedom we used to have: Back in the good
old days, when your car hit some ice and you slid in the ditch, all the neighbors
would come together and take a tractor, hook it up, and pull your car out. Off
you go nothing more was said. Now you have to call the police and hire a tow
truck and file reports, etc.
When asked what was so good about the good old days, many said people
were more friendly, and there was more fellowship.
One lady had a card club of four tables and 20 people, and everyone brought
a dish to pass.
But not everyone appreciated the old days. One Holcombe resident complained about how cold the homes were, how old the cars were, said the tires
did not last long and that the long walks to school were not fun.

Camaraderie Club seeks

donations for benefit sale
Bertha Leja, right, and her sister, Bea, share

a quick moment between well wishers and
picture time at Berthas 100th birthday
party at the Cornell American Legion April
11. The sisters, originally from a family of
14 kids, say they dont get to see each other
much anymore, but cherish the times they
do get to visit. People from the area and out
of state celebrated Berthas life, including
Cornell Mayor Judy Talbot, who presented
Bertha with a certificate from the city and
community recognizing her century mark.
Corrine Randall, left, daughter of 100-yearold Bertha Leja, chats with Dan Goller at
her mothers birthday party in the Cornell
American Legion Hall. Although its undetermined how many actually attended the
event, the place was filled to capacity with
revolving crowds throughout the day.
Volunteers needed at Rusk

County Memorial Hospital
The Rusk County Memorial Hospital in Ladysmith is seeking volunteers to assist with in-house tasks and events
throughout the year. In the past, the hospital had volunteers
through different partnerships, but has now started a separate
program for volunteering.
I think were going in a good direction, with the renovations and expansion, said Carolyn Welsch, volunteer services coordinator. People get to participate in the program,
and its a good experience for everyone.
References are required, and once volunteers sign up, they
go through orientation, as well as background checks. Those
who qualify will then receive training for the more difficult
or extensive positions.
Welsch says many of the helpers are retired and can devote
more time to the program, but all ages are welcome to participate. Students 14-17 must have a guardians signature and
authorization before they are accepted.
Volunteer positions include concierge/greeting, media cart
hosts, one-on-one patient visits, clerical/mailings, baking,
music/entertainment, in-house mail delivery, seasonal decorating and special events as needed.
Its a chance to do something fulfilling and character
building for the young ones, said Welsch. Im excited to
bring more people on board.
For more information or to become a volunteer, contact
Welsch at 715-532-5561, ext. 227.
With spring cleaning in the works, the Cornell-Lake Holcombe Camaraderie Club asks area residents to save items
they may clean out of their houses or garages, and donate
them to the club for a benefit thrift sale in June.
The club uses proceeds from the sale to send care packages
to deployed troops with ties in the area. More than 1,900
packages have been sent since the project began.
New or gently used clothes, furniture, books, knickknacks, craft items and decorations will be accepted.
If somethings too big to haul, we can haul it for you, just
let us know, said Kathy Swanson, Camaraderie Club member and sale organizer. Well take most all things, but we
cannot accept computers or TVs.
To donate or set up a delivery time, call Kathy at 715-2390306.

Then, a week later, we will come back and pick up the food
that people can leave by their doors.
The donated food must be put out by 11 a.m. Saturday,
April 18, for the Cub Scouts to pick up. If the pick-up is
missed, the donated food can be taken to the Cadott Food

We take all that food and we donate it to the Cadott Food
Pantry, said Schofield. Ijust want to thank everybody
in advance for participating and helping out the community.

Pastors Corner
Words of inspiration for these modern times from
members of our Religious communities
By Dr. Jim Brandli
New Life Alliance Church Cornell, Wis.
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have
love...
1 Corinthians 13:1
The Dangers of Spiritual Pride

His head was so big, he couldnt even get in the door!
He was just a normal sized guy...until he started thinking about
how great he was. Then his head started to swell. It swelled to
the size of a pumpkin, then the size of a large oblong watermelon.
It got bigger and bigger until it was the size of a hot air balloon.
Help! Help! Im stuck in the doorway!
His friend set him straight, Let out a lot of that hot air and you
will be fine.
Pridealways sounds like such a good thing. But its not always.
Sometimes pride is a positive thing. We say, Im proud to be
an American. For most people that means Im happy and thankful to live in this country. We say, Im proud of my children.
And we mean something like, I love them and am glad for the
way they are turning out. In those cases, pride is a good thing.
But pride can also be a negative thing. In that case, pride is an
inflated sense of ones own personal status or accomplishments.
God does not want us to have this kind of negative pride.
Everyone with a proud heart is detestable to the Lord. (Prov.
16:5)
God wants us to be humble. And when we are...He will lift us
up.
Everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, but everyone
who humbles himself will be exalted. (Matthew 23:12)
A while back, I was reading an old record of a Christian conference held in 1885. One of the main speakers gave a speech on
what it was like for him to receive a certain spiritual gift.
He said, I felt so alone...my old friends seemed to leave me.
Hundreds and thousands of ministers and friends I had known
and loved for yearsdid not know me anymore
And he went on and on about this great experience he had that
separated him from all his old friends.
As I read itI thoughtwow this guy was really proud of himself. He really thought he was something special!
Little did he know the devil secretly stuck an air compressor
hose in his ear and turned the air on. His head was inflating like
a football. It was getting bigger and bigger. Look out buddy
that things going to blow!
Most car tires have a little note on them about how much air
you can safely put in them.
Unfortunately, our heads have no such instructions on them.

Hornet Hustle buzzes into the Cadott neighborhood

By Monique Westaby
It may not qualify you for the Olympics next year, but it
can still promote positive habits and help Cadott students
explore the environment. The first Hornet Hustle Fun Run
is set for Saturday, April 25, and Cadotts Jr. High language
coach, Jessica Moser, says she hopes to see you there.
We discussed some ideas with community members,
staff and students, and came to a consensus that it would
be best to center this years fund-raiser on positive habits,
said Moser. Therefore, we are hosting the run to promote
healthy habits in life, and through appreciation of the outdoors.
With the increased interest of fun runs, 5Ks and other
similar events, Moser said she wanted to bring something
normally held in Eau Claire or further away to the Cadott
community.
The event raises funds for eighth grade students to attend
a three-day field trip to Trees for Tomorrow, a natural resources specialty school in Eagle River. On the trip, students discover ways the environment affects their lives,
while hearing about wilderness skills such as compass
reading, fire building and canoeing.
For many students, this trip provides an amazing handson way of learning about nature and the world they live
in, says Moser, something many students reflect back on

with fond memories and excitement.
Moser says she would like to see at least 100 runners for
the fund-raiser, but if the numbers reach above and beyond that point, she says she doesnt mind. In addition to
the registration fee, participants also receive a custom designed t-shirt.
Music and refreshments will follow the 2-mile run/walk,
which begins at 10 a.m. (registration starting at 8 a.m.) at
the high school. Runners (and walkers) will travel County
Highway X, before looping back to the school, ending
through the tunnel between the elementary and high
school. All ages are welcome, and registration can be completed online until April 17, at hornethustle2015.eventbrite.
com.
If you are unable to attend the run, but would still like
to partially or fully sponsor a student(each student needs
around $100 to attend the camp), donations by check can
be made out to the Cadott School District, and sent to the
school care of Jessica Moser, 426 Myrtle Street, Cadott,
WI 54727.
Thank you to all who have already donated or registered for the run, said Moser. On behalf of the Cadott
School District, we hope to see you there.

Holcombe Happenings
By Janice Craig 715-595-4380
There was a very good turnout for the Lake Holcombe
School activity Saturday.
The Holcombe Seniors Club met Wednesday, at the Holcombe United Methodist Church. There were many who
werent feeling well, some were traveling and some of the
snowbirds are still not back, so we only had 13 people. Ginna
Young, from the Courier Sentinel, was there to take pictures
of the lovely spring bonnets the women were wearing.
Mason Andrew Kirkman, son of Andy and Sara Kirkman,
entered this wonderful world. He weighed 9 pounds, 1 ounce,
and was 21 1/2 inches long. He is the grandson of Denis and
Gayle Kirkman. Gayle had pictures to show everyone on her
phone. They live in Sun Prairie, which is a long trip.
The Music Man Jr. will be held June 19-20. Beth Meddaugh is looking for townspeople to be in the play. If you are
interested in helping out, call the Lake Holcombe School
and let Beth know. This is a great old play, and should be a
lot of fun to be in. It will be held in the Lake Holcombe
School.
I see docks starting to appear and boats alongside, so
I guess spring has finally arrived. The herons have been busy

Final stages of Hillside Development Plots
Newly elected board members Brian Guthman (left),

Dave Staudacher (center) and Beau Bowlin (right)
attended the regular Lake Holcombe Town Board

asked for their input on several issues at the meeting.

quite a difference for the town, so they approved the lesser
bid from the county.
I want to thank you for putting that in, said Bayerl to a
representative from Monarch. We appreciate that very
much.
Grinding for the road was approved by A-1 for $5,913.
Bayerl says the company did work for the town last year, and
the board was pleased with the results.
It was also agreed to remove the old cattle pass on 305th
Avenue (which turns into 303rd Avenue), as Bayerl says its
no longer used as a passageway or for water, and is a liability.
The sides are fine but the bottom looks rusty, said Bruce
Jones, town roadman. It isnt worth leaving it there; its been
there since the 40s or 50sto leave that under the road
would be insane.
We cant put a new road over it and a few years down the
road have the road collapse because this old culvert goes to
heck. We cant do that.
Jones says the way it is now, the shoulders are not where
they should be because of the structure. The board agreed to
have the old cattle pass removed on 305th Avenue.
On other agenda, operator licenses were approved following background checks for three employees Kimberly
Beaudin, Mercedes Stonky and Jennifer Wilson at the Lake
Holcombe Convenience Store. Stonky and Wilsons licenses
are contingent on completion of the certification course.

Beginning in 2011, Paul Close, Cadott resident, began a
10 lot project to be placed beyond Hillside Street, extending
Poplar Street in Cadott. The Cadott Village Board approved
the preliminary plat of six plots in February 2012.
At the regular Cadott Village board meeting April 6, Close
came to the board again to finish the second phase, the final
four lots, of his Hillside Development plan. Close proposed
the plan to allow those plots to be sold and used for residential living.
The board approved the final plat under four conditions:
the states approval of the final plat (which was presented to
the board that evening); additional 10 foot wide easements
are added to the plat along the south line of lots 9 and 16 for
electric utility; a developers agreement is made between the
village and Close, including a letter of credit for the proposed
improvements and proposed construction plans for the street;
and utilities extensions are reviewed and approved by the village engineer and board.
The second request item for Close was a building permit
for a single family dwelling at Hillside Development.
Jeff Nussbaum, village engineer, recommended the board
approve the permit with the condition that Close is responsible for any corrective measure if the building isnt up to standards, and he cant sell until water and sewer is inspected and
accepted by the village.
He cant technically sell lots, but needs to get started on
building, said Nussbaum. Anyone in the building industry
knows right now its getting really busy to find people to do
stuff for you.
The board approved the building permit for Close to begin
his building project at the future lots.
Also at the meeting, the board had the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) meeting.
According to the Wisconsin Division of Housing, the
CDBG program is a flexible program that provides communities with resources to address a wide range of unique community development needs. The program began in 1974,
providing annual grants on a formula basis to local governments and States.
After Cadott received the grant fund, the village allowed
residents to apply for a loan for the upkeep of their homes.
Once approved, the loans dont need to be paid back until the
home is sold or rented out. When the loan is paid back, the
revenue goes back into the grant for another person or family
to use.
It has helped a lot of people in town, said Sandy Buetow,
village clerk. It has been a good program.

Before the meeting, the village had a balance of
$24,704.32 in the grant fund, but after the unanimous approval of an $18,000 loan, the board has a balance of $6,500
for future community development.
Also on the agenda, Michaela Ann Anderl was approved
for an operator license at Spare Me Bar in Cadott.
During correspondence, Gerald Rykal, board member, said
on behalf of the board, he would like to thank Mathison and
Kromrey Chiropractic Clinics for donating $400 for two new
vests for the Cadott Police Department.
That is great, added Bart Chapek, board member.
At an earlier meeting, the police committee recommended
new vests for the department, to help hold their gear without
strain on officers backs. The village will purchase the final
vest for the third officer in Cadott.

Hitting bullseye for seventh state title

By Kayla Peche
The Cadott Hornets Archery team will
need more room in the gym to put up their
seventh state title banner after April 10. This
year marked the 10th time Cadott has competed at the NASPState Championship in
Wisconsin.
Winning the state title also meant hitting
a new state record of 3,376 team points, 40
points ahead of second place East DePere,
followed by Xtreme Eagles, Marshfield
High School and Cornell, to take the top five
spots.
Our goal as a team is to shoot 3,400
points at the national tournament in May,
said Scott Christenson, archery head coach.
This years team is a very competitive group

with a lot of potential.
Freshman Caitlin Larson tied the school
record with a score of 291, previously set by
Lexi Siverling in 2013. Larson ranked in second out of 178 in the high school girls category.
Joey Hinzmann, sophomore, scored 285
with 19 tens, ranking fifth out of 179 high
school boys. Junior Hayden Thompson
scored 283 and ninth place, and his classmate,
Brandon Peak, placed 11th with a score of
282.
Other top scorers for the Hornets were
sophomore Henry Wojtczack and junior Wesley Severson with 282, sophomore Ty Weiss
with 280, and sophomore
Morgan Spaeth and eighth
grader Coy Bowe with 279.
Hornet sophomore Brianna
Welch and freshman Bennet
Bowe scored 278, while senior Delanie Stangl scored
277.

Cornell archers end season

with national qualifying run
By Ginna Young
With a score of 3,239 at the State Archery Tournament in
Rothschild April 11, the Cornell Archery team qualifies for
national competition. To advance, a high school division
must earn a score of 3,099.
Although the team of 20 met the requirements for Nationals, collectively they made the decision to not attend this
years tournament in Louisville, Ky. Cornell set a personal
goal of 3,310, and fell just short of that mark, placing fifth
out of 15 schools.
The fact this team competed in the High School Division
and qualified as a nationally competitive team that consisted
of 11 of its 20 members being middle school archersis phenomenal, said Carol Hakes, Cornell archery coach.
Sophomore Abby Klein led the way at state with 285, placing first out of 52 girls in her grade.
Cornell isnt the only team from the area to qualify for the
next level, as Cadott took first place in the state tournament,
scoring 3,376.
Wed like to congratulate Cadott on their excellent shooting, said Hakes. All the kids were really happy for them;
they have an amazing program, and were so proud of them
for what theyve accomplished.
Even though their season has come to an end and the Cornell archers wont see the national competition this time
around, Hakes says they will
continue to raise funds to expand the program and invest
in its future.
This team also set a new
team school record this season and broke the high individual record not once, but
twice, said Hakes. There is
so much incredible talent and a great deal of determination
to succeed within this group of archers. Its been a fun and
rewarding experience for me as a first year coach as well.
While at the State Archery Tournament, the team also competed in a National Archery in the Schools Program (NASP)
national qualifying 3-D shoot. Taking first for the team in the
3-D shoot was Ty Anderson; second place went to Jacob Hall;
and Garrett Kralewski captured third.
Coach Carol Hakes says the students will concentrate on
expansion of Cornell's Archery Program, and fund-raising to
purchase NASP 3-D targets, as well as a scoring machine so
they can host tournaments.

By Kayla Peche
After a cancellation of their first home
game against Chetek-Weyerhaeuser April 9,
the Cornell-Lake Holcombe Knights Softball
team traveled to Ladysmith April 13, for the
first conference game of the season.
Knights senior Allison Spegal says it was
a close game all the way through, but said it
was good to get the first win of the year.
The Knights scored five runs in the second
inning and added six more in the seventh, defeating the Lumberjills, 15-10.
At the Cornell Chiefs Girls Basketball awards banquet, four players were given
awards for their performances throughout the season. The players and their

fought back.
Ladysmith broke the
game open, scoring five
more runs, then adding one
in both the fifth and sixth,
ending the game, 12-2, with
a 10-run rule.
We had a couple mental
errors besides our two fielding errors, said John Lee,
Knights baseball head

put too many men on base.

Jeremiah
Reedy and Noah Nohr, and
senior Preston Strzok, combined pitching, giving up 12
runs, eight hits, 10 walks

and six strikeouts.
The Knights had only two
hits for the game, one by
Reedy and one by Nohr.

Solid Hornet defense with time to improve

By Kayla Peche
The Cadott Hornets Baseball team is beginning to look like last season all over
again, with their second loss of the year,
April 10.
But head coach Peter Devine says with
three conference games coming up, he hopes
the team will make that improvement earlier this year than last year.
The game against Bruce was close until
the late innings when the Red Raiders hit a
grand slam, gaining the lead to win, 11-2.
The homerun wouldnt have hurt us very
much if not for the free base runners that
were put on, Devine said.
Our hitters still had nine
strikeouts. Its difficult to
score runs when there arent
many players getting on
base.
Cadott had three hits and
walks during the game with
one RBI from senior Brett
McChesney.
Senior Austin Najbrt was
on the mound for four innings, striking out two. His
classmate, Ezra Michael,
pitched the final inning with
a low WHIP (number of base
runners a pitcher allows) of
1.80.
Our defense was solid,
Devine said. We struggled
like this last year and then
started to improve after midseason.
Following this game,
Cadott played their first conference game against Altoona April 14, and will
play two more Cloverbelt matches vs. Fall Creek
and Stanley-Boyd April 16
and 17.
Junior Michelle Ewer led the team with six

RBIs while freshman Danielle Fasbender had
two runs and three RBIs. Senior Sam Sippy
also added two runs out of three times at bat.
The girls really stepped it up, said Chad
Spegal, Knights softball head coach.
Pitching the game, junior Bailey Viegut
struck out one and only gave up two walks in
the victory.
Cornell-Lake Holcombe will travel to
Northwood Thursday, April 16, and bring it
to home field Friday, April 17.
Comeback victory for Hornets

By Kayla Peche
After a first game of the season loss, the Cadott Hornets Softball team came back with determination for the next two non-conference games.
The team played amazingly well, said Kari Moldrem, Cadott head softball coach, after
the teams two victories.
April 10 vs. Bruce (non-conference)
Originally, the girls planned to play at their home field, but because of the weather, the April
10 game was moved to Bruce.
Matthew McDonough, Cadott principal, said a lot of the girls were disappointed about losing
out on their first home game. They were moping around all day in school, but then look what
happened.
The Hornets dominated the Red Raiders by scoring 10 runs by the third inning.
The game was started off with an inside the park homerun by Marisa Sperber (senior),
said Moldrem.
From there, Cadott shut down Bruce and scored five runs in the final inning to win, 15-0.
Both Brittany Erickson (sophomore) and Lexi Kramer (freshman) had solid performances
on the mound allowing only two base runners for the entire game, said Moldrem. Our defense was error free and they made every play that came their way.
Senior Racheal Semanko had three runs with an RBI, and Sperber hit in three runs, including
a homerun. Senior Devin Kulow hit two runs with two RBIs, and freshmen Grace Ellenbecker
and Kaylee Butterfield had two runs for Cadott.
I was very pleased with how the game went, Moldrem said. I also was able to get every
player in the game.
April 13 vs. Chetek-Weyerhaeuser (non-conference)
Moldrem says Cadott fell behind Chetek-Weyerhaeuser by six runs in the second inning of
the April 13 game, because of
some defensive miscues.
But that didnt stop the Hornets.
The team pulled together

The Cornell-Lake Holcombe Knights Track team battled

By the fourth inning, Cad- the wind and competition during their first outdoor invitaott had brought the score 6-2, tional April 13, in Flambeau.

DNR Outdoor Report

Its been busy for firefighters around the state. Warm temperatures, low humidity and gusty winds have created high
to extreme fire danger, and called for the suspension of burning permits in most areas. In the past week, 76 wildfires
burned 133 acres in DNR Protection Areas. Debris burning
was the leading cause.
Nearly all lakes and flowages in northwestern Wisconsin
are ice free and all waters should be fully open.
With the open water, DNR fisheries crews have begun their
spring surveys of walleye and northern pike populations.
Fisheries staff set their first series of fyke nets of the year as
they look for spring runs and the over-winter survivorship of
fish species.
Anglers have had success with catches of crappies, walleye
and sauger. Shore fishing pressure has also picked up, and a
few anglers are getting bites on spawn sacs in harbors, and
report about half of the fish caught are spawned out.
Turkeys have been seen in groups from single hens, to
small groups of toms and a hen, to large groups of 50 birds
or more. Toms have been actively strutting and gobbling, and
some turkey breeding activity has been reported.
While the maple tapping season was late to arrive and soon
to depart, signs of spring are taking place all across the state
as buds on the maple trees pop, and fields have begun to turn
from brown to green.
As spring begins to take hold and plants begin to green,
keep an eye out for garlic mustard and buckthorn. These two
non-native invasive plants are readily apparent early in the
year when not many other plants grow.
Birds of all kinds have made their way back, and fight for
breeding rights and territories. Great blue herons and loons
have been seen in cattail beds, while mergansers, redheads
and other diver ducks have been reported near area lakes.
Tree swallows and eastern phoebes are back and dining on
insects.
Ducks have found nesting spots and started to incubate
eggs, and bald eagles have been seen on nests. Along with
returning waterfowl, ospreys have returned to nesting platforms.
A report of a red fox den with pups has come in, kicking
off the birthing season.
Chorus frogs and spring peepers have initiated calling.
An Outdoorsmans Journal By Mark Walters

Walleye out of a Canoe
Hello friends,
I have a confession. I live about 25 miles from Nekoosa,
located on the Wisconsin River in Wood County, and have
never fished for walleye on that stretch of river, which has
become extremely respected for quality walleye fishing.
My plan was somewhat simple. After doing a bit of
recon work, I was going to put my canoe in at a local park
located below the Domtar Paper Mill, which is also where
the dam is in Nekoosa.
From Nekoosa to Sauk City, the slot limit for walleye
does not allow fish 20-28 inches to be kept, and this rule
is creating lots of slots and an incredible fishery.
Wednesday, April 8 High 43, Low 29
Last week I correctly wrote that a lack of rainfall and
snowmelt was having an affect on the spawning habits of
walleye and great
lakes rainbow trout.
Fast forward seven
days and it is raining
daily, the ditches are
streams and the
marshes are lakes.
I was super excited
as I rigged my canoe
on the shoreline with
four rods, a propane
lantern, two coolers
one for fish and one
as a dry box and a
couple of anchors.
I would wear chest
waders and several
layers of clothes, as
my plan was to be on
the water from midSteve Droste with a beautiful afternoon until about
walleye he caught and re- 10 a.m. the next
leased on the Wisconsin River morning.
at Nekoosa.
There was heavy
rain in the forecast, but a deadline that was looming meant
the trip was a go, no matter what the weather.
So I am rigging my canoe and a shore fisherman starts
casting a jig right next to me. The fellas name was Steve
Droste, and in no more than five minutes he hooks onto a
good fish, lands it and it turns out to be a 26-inch, spawned
out walleye.
Five minutes later Steve catches a 23-inch walleye and
I am becoming very excited for my adventure.
I did speak with several fishermen who said the wind
switched to the northeast and the walleye were not eating,
but all I could think was I had about 20 hours to try and
catch a big marble eye out of my canoe. I might add I did
not see any other canoes on this stretch of river.

So I paddle up by the dam and anchor in a secret spot.
I toss out two lines rigged with floating jigs and minnows,
then begin working with a quarter-ounce lead head jig. On
my first cast I lose the jig, so I start tossing crankbaits, and
have no luck.
After awhile, I pull anchor and head to another secret
spot, a good mile down river. As I pass Steve he catches
another big walleye.
This stretch of the Wisconsin River receives huge respect for the opportunity to catch a big walleye, and it is
pretty cool to see a lot of shore fishermen, and guys and
gals in boats.
I fish my second spot for four hours and only catch one,
very small walleye, but do not see anybody else using their
nets either.
Now it is 10:30 p.m. and to the best of my knowledge,
no one else is fishing this piece of river. So I pull anchor,
paddle upstream and anchor 20 yards out from shore, exactly where Steve was fishing.
I have my lantern, two lines with floating jigs, and am
always working a jig and minnow or a crankbait. The hand
I reformed with a wood splitter this winter works, but I
have to take breaks (I broke three fingers and am losing a
finger nail).
It is after 1 a.m. and although I am actually enjoying
myself, I keep thinking that in reality, I suck at catching
walleye like this. Then, just like that, I catch a small walleye on a floating jig. Then I catch an 18-incher on a
crankbait. Then a storm with a lot of thunder and lightning, and a very cold rain, envelopes my world (I hid in
my truck).
Just before the deluge, I land a slot fish, which measures 22 inches, and was really fun to catch in hard current
while sitting in a canoe.
After the deluge, I caught more walleye with the biggest
measuring 23 inches. I strapped my canoe to my trusty
Chevy at 10 a.m. the next morning, and had that awesome
I did it feeling.
When I got home, I was so stiff I almost literally fell out
of my truck, as I did not realize how stiff I actually was.
Twenty some years to retirement!

Its a Girls Hunting

Life
By: Monique Westaby
Whoopsies
I maneuvered the white
Chevy down the snow and ice
covered road into the county forest land. I was desperately in
search of someone I recognized and had yet to find someone
to take over the wheel.
My driver, Terry, had meandered into the woods in search
of a coyote the dogs were chasing, and my husband, Scott,
had followed him in several minutes laterthat was well over
an hour, probably closer to two, ago.
A driver directed me further up the road and for the first
time in my life, I was happy to see Terry. Just kidding Terry,
were always happy to see you.
Anyway, I rolled down the window, reached out and
opened the door, and crawled into the passenger seat. Scott
was still out in the woods and I was more than happy to relinquish my navigators position.
Did you see anything out there? I asked Terry.
Aside from a porcupine, he said not much, but that Scott
had gotten a few shots at the yote. Unfortunately, it was at
about 200 yards with a split-second window; no blood had
yielded a much faster, and probably more wile, coyote.
We sat in the truck looking down a highline, where power
lines were strung through the dense woods. The sun was making its way to the western horizon and Scott was still sitting
in the middle of nowhere, waiting for the dogs to come back
through with the coyote.
His phone was dead and the only connection we had was
a fellow hunter on a snowmobile who relayed information on
his dying radio from Scott to us. The dogs made another turn
to the east and Terry swung the truck around.
Excited, we less than slowly made our way to blacktop. A
minor pitstop into the ditch, a quick tire spin and a whoopsies for my life later, we were again on our way, ready to see
a coyote after this daylong adventure.
The snowmobiler relayed that the coyote had again crossed
by Scott, but there was no shot. He brought my husband to
the road and it was the last anyone saw of the coyote.
As the horizon swallowed the last of the sun, we spent the
final few stretches of daylight trying to call the dogs out from
the woods. Whether they were still on the animal or not, no
one knew; but our bellies were growing hungry and our eyelids were getting heavy.
By now it was dark, and where the sun had heated up the
cab a little, the moon wasnt so kind and my blanket felt thinner than it actually was. I pulled the fleece up to my face and
tried to hold the complaining to a minimum.
Another hour and it was finally time to head home. We had
our dogs and the remaining hunters would wait for theirs,
watching the hounds tracks on their GPS units. Normally we
dont leave before all dogs are caught, but Terry had plans
and he was our driver.
It was my first experience coyote hunting and although it
was cold, tiring and I didnt see one coyote, I had a blast and
was ready to head out another dayuntil 4 a.m. rolled around
that is.

average and the rigor of their program. Teachers also take
into consideration other attributes, such as positive attitude, leadership, community involvement and self-motivation.
Each honored student then chooses an educator (kinder-
garten-12th grade) who has been a strong influence, or who

strongly encouraged them in their work at school.
An Excellence in Education award is also given to a senior at each school who has exhibited qualities and effort
above and beyond what is considered normal or expected,
and a Special Educator Award, given to one educator from
each school, is also presented at the banquet.
The educator is chosen by his or her peers for special involvement and extra commitment, and can be nominated
in one of three main areas innovation in teaching, contributor to education and unsung hero.
Honored educators for 2015 are Pam Starkey, Lake Holcombe, and Erica Deitelhoff, Cornell.
Each student will receive a monetary award to be used
for college or technical schools, a small gift and a certificate. Their chosen educator will also be given a small gift
and certificate.
The public is welcome to attend, and tickets can be purchased by calling Andrea Smith at 715-861-8011, before
Wednesday, April 22. The banquet is sponsored by area
businesses, civic organizations, the Cornell Area Betterment Association and the Cornell/Lake Holcombe 21st
Century Community Learning Centers.

Is a text or a phone call worth dying for?
This question was asked to the Cadott Jr./Sr. High School
students and faculty April 10, during a Stop the Texts, Stop
the Wrecks assembly, hosted by the Cadott Student Council.
The student council committee received a grant through
the Wisconsin Department of Instruction for $1,000, and
chose to focus the funding on awareness of distractive driving.
We are working to install a sign, possibly two, at the exit
of the parking lot to remind students to keep their phones
away while driving, said Alisha Neinfeldt, student council
adviser.
During the assembly, students heard from Jennifer Smith,
a leading advocate against distracted driving. Smiths mother
was killed by a driver talking on a cell phone in 2008. Since
then, she continues to work to prevent this from happening
to others, by sharing her story and the latest research behind
driving while distracted.
After hearing from Smith, the students met in the gymnasium for an activity to show how difficult it can be to drive
when distracted.
Freshmen through senior classes chose participants to maneuver a bicycle around an obstacle course while trying to
text and avoid objects that were placed in their way. A majority of the students wrecked, or hit objects when texting
and driving.
Iam hoping the assembly makes an impact with the students, Neinfeldt said. We are all, including myself, guilty
of distracted driving. It is something that we should be aware
of and stop doing.
The Cadott freshman class chose
Michael Emery to
text Stop the Texts,
Stop the Wrecks,
and attempt to drive
through an obstacle
course during the
activity portion of an
April 10 assembly.
The Cadott Student
Council hosted the
event to spread
awareness of the
dangers of distracted driving.

Cadott sophomore Brandon Pederson found out

the hard way the dangers of distracted driving during the April 10 Stop the Texts, Stop the Wrecks assembly. The Cadott students and a few faculty
members rode a childrens bicycle between cones
across the gym while trying to text and drive.

As part of a touring Cornell businesses segment at the Cornell After School program, students traveled
to the Courier Sentinel office April 9. Ginna Young, typesetter/reporter, explained to the students how
times have changed in the newspaper business, mentioning how color has been added, paper size has
changed and after-midnight layout nights have gotten significantly shorter, making page design more efficient and economical.

Kneading Hands Massage adds needy feet
Page
By Kayla Peche
After bringing massage to Cornell last summer, Andrea
Christenson, RN, added foot and nail care to her business.
Kneading Hands Massage Therapy joined Lakeland Physical Therapy in July 2014, where Christenson says business
has been going great.
Massage is going very well, Christenson said. With my
nursing license, I can provide nail and foot care.
C15-3c
C16-1c
Christenson says she had the idea of providing foot care a

few years ago, but put it on the back burner. As her business
grew in Cornell, she said she finally had the financial stability to take the course at UW-Eau Claire. She says shes
glad to offer it directly through her own business, rather than
working for someone else.
People are always on their feet, Christenson said. They
are our stability and foundation. So taking care of our feet
is really importantit is something I feel deeply about.
Christenson has been a registered nurse for over 20 years,
and after the course, became a foot and nail care specialist.
Her foot and nail care began in March, and so far Christenson has had a handful of clients. She will serve men
and women of all ages with special foot care needs such as
diabetes, neuropathy, arthritis, bunions, hammer toes, corns,
calluses and nail fungus. Christenson will also cut, trim and
shape finger nails if needed.
If the general aging population cant get to their feet, they
are likely going to have some difficulty trimming their finger
nails, Christenson said. So I will provide that for them as
well, along with a little moisturizer and hand massage.
Appointments can be scheduled Monday through Friday
by calling Christenson at 715-827-1111. She said she also
will consider traveling for in-bound residents and places of
congregated living.
For others who may be too embarrassed about their foot
issues, or going to a public place, Christenson provides privacy for each client, and wants to help them get back on
their feet.
Christenson said during an appointment, a person can expect to have a foot soak, trimming and contouring of nails,
callus and corn reduction, a moisturizing foot massage and
a conversation about good foot health.
As a certified shoe fitter, Dr. Comfort Shoes are also available for purchase from Kneading Hands, and are designed
for those with special foot care needs. Christenson said she
is able to make doctor referrals as well, if there are additional services needed.
It is really a health
thing, she said. It gets
people more mobile and
safe.
Christenson says foot care
and massage are things people sometimes take for
granted, but it is really a part
of health maintenance.
There are a lot of people
who think massage is a luxury, Christenson said. But
really, people are becoming
more aware of their own
health, and realizing they
can do things on their own
to stay healthier.

and Gayle Kirkman adorn themselves with bunny
teeth mints for the Lake Holcombe Seniors Club
Easter meeting April 8. A few ladies chose to wear
spring-time bonnets or fuzzy bunny ears, while the
men opted for brightly colored shirts.
Anita Pernsteiner, decked out in her Easter bonnet,

fills her plate with spring-like offerings at the Lake
Holcombe Seniors club monthly meeting. After the
group finished eating, members played egg-tac-toe
and roll the bunny at tables decorated by Pernsteiner.

The 21st Century Community
Learning Center held the Makin
Art Paint Party at Cornell Elementary School for about two
dozen area residents April 7.
Paint parties are based out of
Eau Claire, and instructors say
they hold about six parties a
week.
Cornell resident Peggy Patten helps her mom, Dorothy Beighley, paint the roof
on her barn during a Makin Art Paint Party at the Cornell Elementary School. Although it looks like a snow scene now, participants added green grass and their
choice of trees to make it more of a spring/summer scene. Makin Art Paint
Parties are out of Eau Claire, and founder Inez says it was an idea her daughter
and she made a reality about a year ago.
