Three-county chase
ends near Jim Falls
By Monique Westaby
A man is in custody after law enforcement agencies from
three counties (Chippewa, Price and Taylor) chased him to
the point of getting lost.
In a release from the Medford Police Department, Ken
Coyer, chief of police, said 29-year-old Benjamin R. Ashbacher, of Kennan, was taken into custody May 3 on a probation violation.
After questioning Ashbacher in regard to a stolen vehicle
taken from the City of Medford, he admitted to taking a vehicle matching the one stolen the day before.
Chippewa County Sheriff James Kowalczyk said his
agency got involved May 2, when Ashbacher was clocked
going in excess of 90 mph on State Highway 27 south of
Cornell.
There was a stolen vehicle reported out of Medford on
Saturday, said Kowalczyk. One of our officers, while traveling on Highway 27, near 185th Avenue, had a vehicle that
was clocked on radar doing 90 mph plus.
At that point, Kowalczyk says the officer gave pursuit,
and a chase started, which continued west of Highway 27,
north of Jim Falls. The chase was ended, and the vehicle
was soon after recovered at 19204 190th Street.
Chippewa County then contacted the Medford Police Department to tell them the vehicle was in custody, but that the
driver had fled from the vehicle once it was abandoned.
Coyer says in his release that Ashbacher told law enforcement he knew he had been in a chase with Price and Taylor

Own your destiny in education and life


By Kayla Peche
Just as 20 years before, the Cornell and Lake Holcombe
School Districts came together to honor six graduating students, chosen for their accomplishments in education, as well
as their favored educators who guided them toward excellence.
At Our Saviors Luthern Church in Cornell, the districts
held the 20th Annual Excellence in Education Recognition
Banquet April 29, with a meal, speaker and recognition of
honorees. Each student received a $100 scholarship, a certifi-

cate from Gov. Scott Walker, and a small gift from the
schools.
Danielle Hecker, a 1999 graduate of Lake Holcombe, was
the chosen keynote speaker after the meal. Hecker was the
first in her family to graduate with a bachelors degree. In her
final year at UW-Stout, Hecker began interning with Target,
and from there, was hired and moved to her role at Target
headquarters in Minneapolis.
As Hecker told her story from high school, to college, to

At a regular school board meeting April 27, Lake Holcombe superintendent Jeff Mastin thanked Marjorie
Diedricht and the Lake Holcombe Lions Club for their donations to the district.
Diedricht donated $2,000 to be used for post-graduation
scholarships in the name of her husband, Glen, who passed
away in 1991. Glen was on the Lake Holcombe Town Board
at the time of his death.
The Lions were also thanked for their donations, which included $750 and $500 to high schoolers Anthony Pratt and
Jay Tainter, who participated in the Lions Ice Fishing Contest
earlier this year.
Pratt requested his $750 go toward the technology education department for the purchase of more equipment, while
Tainter asked for his $500 to be split between the English
Department for more classroom reading material, and the
Physical Education Department for more training room exercise equipment.

In the maintenance report, Tom Hayden, head of maintenance, gave an update on the schools appearance and parking lot changes.
Hayden said the underground (running wires from the
school to the parking lot) was scheduled for the end of
April/beginning of May, and additional wires were planned
for the possibility of a future electronic sign near the entrance

Drive to provide a scholarship to a Cornell High School senior. The $2,000 scholarship is to be awarded at the Honor
Banquet Wednesday, May 20.

Over 700 children are abducted a day. Are your kids safe?
By Monique Westaby
Managing Editor
With a little bundle of
joy on the way, its easier
than ever to think of
everything that can go
wrong with pregnancy.
The thought of losing this
tiny human inside me is something that
crosses my mind every day.
But what about once hes born? Until the
other night, that wasnt something that had
been at the forefront of my worrisome
thoughts. And then my husband and I went
to a prenatal class, and I saw a video on
YouTube.
At the class, I was reminded of a story my
mom has told me several times.
While the details arent crystal clear, one
thing stuck with me after I was born, my
mother was given the wrong child. All jokes
aside, and probably to my brothers protest,
the situation was quickly sorted out and I was
returned to my rightful parent, or so we hope.
(If you see me and you see my mom youll
know we are definitely cut from the same
mold and, as difficult as it may be to admit,
Im definitely my mothers daughter in more
ways than just looks. I love you Mom.)
As we toured the birthing facility, the nurse
explained that each newborn is given a wristband that matches their mothers. An ankle
tag is also placed on the child, and a puck
is attached to the umbilical cord clamp, setting off an alarm if the child is removed from
the birthing center.
The nurse reassured us that the wrist band
will be placed on our son before he ever
leaves the delivery room, but the thought of
a mix up still lingers in the back of my mind.
Would I know if they gave me the wrong
baby back? What if they look similar, but I
cant tell the difference?
In situations like this, its hard to know
what the outcome would be. Im sure it happens more than parents know, and gets
cleared up in a short amount of time, but its
still those few and far between moments that
pull at a mothers fears.
So what about once your kid is home safe
from the hospital in your arms? Its years
after his birth and you obviously know your
kid is your kid when you see him with his
friends. But you cant be with him 24/7, so

how do you know hes coming back home


with you?
Its common sense to teach your kid about
strangers:
Dont talk to a stranger, no matter how
convincing they sound. Dont take candy
from a stranger. If a stranger asks you to go
somewhere with them, scream and run away.
As a child, Mom always told me to scream
if any strangers even looked at me. I laughed
at the thought then, and thankfully never had
to decide between the safety of a scream, or
the embarrassment of making a scene, but
looking back now, its something Im thankful my mom taught me. And something I will
definitely teach my son.
But what about the what ifs and loopholes strangers continually showcase?
Child abductors may be stupid enough to
steal your kid, but along with the times, their
techniques have also evolved.
But parents are more aware of abductors,
and more skeptical of their next door neighbors, so taking a kid isnt as easy as taking
candy from a baby anymore. Or is it?
In a YouTube video, Joey Salads, most
commonly known for pulling pranks, takes
on a new role and shows parents how quickly
he can lure kids away from a playground.
How many times a day do you tell your

kids not to talk to strangers? Salads asks a


random parent during his social experiment.
I tell my kid every day, the mother responds.
The parents go on to assure him their child
wont go with him, but a friendly hello and a
cute, white puppy later, the child is holding
hands with the stranger, Joey, and on their
way to see more puppies.
According to Parents magazine, a child
goes missing or is kidnapped every 40 seconds in the United States. While not all of
those are by strangers (49 percent by a relative and 27 percent by an acquaintance), 24
percent of those are by someone the child or
parents do not know.
In 2014, there were 466,949 entries for
missing children under the age of 18 into the
FBIs National Crime Information Center, as
reported by the National Center for Missing
and Exploited Children. By December,
nearly 40 percent of those (33,677) were still
unsolved juvenile cases under the age of 18.
But lets face it, kids are gullible, and often
dont realize that one situation is similar to
another. Teaching a kid not to talk to
strangers is a must, but teaching them every
possible scenario would be impossible. So
going over a few variables and setting a no
matter what rule might just save their life.

Kidshealth.org suggests setting boundaries


for places your kids can go and supervising
them in public places. The site also says to
never leave kids alone and avoid clothes with
the childs name on it. Tell your son or
daughter to never go anywhere with a
stranger, even if it sounds like fun and remind
them that adults they dont know should
never ask them to help or to do things for
them.
At the end of his video, Salads concludes
with: Over 700 children are abducted a day,
thats over a quarter million a year. Are your
kids safe?
We can teach our children all the tactics,
show them all the videos and remind them
every day to stay away from strangers, but
the truth is, every day, everywhere, predators
are out there. Kids shouldnt be kept under
lock and key, but never underestimate the
power a short conversation and constant reminders can have on your child or their
friend.
The proof is in the search engine, and a
simple click of a button for kid saves sibling
from abduction shows multiple videos and
news stories where kids were taught what to
do, and what not to do, potentially saving another.
So, is your kid safe?

My crazy color-coded calendar makes me tired


By Heather Dekan
The days are getting
longer, the temperatures
are finally getting warmer,
and summer is about here;
and that also means my
schedule is getting more
hectic.
I wait all year for summer to roll back
around, to drag out my flip flops, shorts and
tank tops. Its time for bonfires, sitting outside on the deck, camping, fishing, swimming and most importantly, demolition
derbies.
But, it also means my life is about to get
crazy busy, as if its not already. As Isit here
and write this column, Ilook at the calendar
sitting on my desk, filled with colors (I colorcode my work and personal events, as well
as my kids), and there are only four days out
of this month Ihave nothing written down.

Sell It Today!
Its easyand we are ready to help.

Lets take two weeks ago for example:


It was Thursday afternoon when Igot a
call from the school saying my son fell at recess and hurt his wrist. They felt more comfortable if Ipicked him up and monitored it,
so Idid.
His wrist wasnt swollen, no marks or anything visible that I could see, so I thought it
would be OK. We made it through the day,
taking it easy and waiting to see if it would
feel any better.
By the next morning, he said it still hurt,
so I called the doctor to get it checked out,
just to be safe. Inever guessed wed be leaving with a little boy who had a broken bone
a minor greenstick break. We left with a
splinter and a repeat x-ray in three weeks.
Monday rolled around, again, and after I
finished work, I went home to make supper
before the girls had softball practice at 5 p.m.
I try to watch them at practice if I can, but
lets face it, Ialso have a house that needs to
be cleaned, laundry that needs to be done and
a six year old boy who does not want to sit
there and watch his sisters practice.
Tuesday: Work, home, supper and get my
oldest to volleyball practice at 5:30 p.m.,
come home and try to get some cleaning
done before picking her up at 7 p.m.
Wednesday: Work, pick up the kids early
from school for a dentist appointment (thankfully no cavities) at 3:20 p.m., rush to go grab
supper somewhere and try to get the girls
back to Cadott by 5 p.m. for softball practice.
Thursday: Same as Tuesday.
Friday: Work and (finally) no practice after
school. But instead of coming home to relax,
I started working on the laundry thats been
piling up all week, plus the dishes in the sink.
Saturday: Of course I am used to getting
up early for work, so I cant sleep past 6:45
a.m. I get up, and get myself and the kids
ready. We head to a few thrift sales behind
the old Kmart before grabbing lunch and
heading to my oldests volleyball tournament
in Boyceville. By the time we get home, its

6:30 p.m., so Isit outside to enjoy the sun before heading in to watch a movie on TV Ive
been wanting to see.
Sunday: Up early again, this time 6 a.m.,
but try to fall back asleep for at least a little
bit. Get up and get ready, take my youngest
to his friends house for a play date, go to
Chippewa to get a few groceries, then head
home just in time to make it to my daughters
Girl Scout bridging ceremony. I get home
and sit outside to enjoy the 80 degree weather
before dropping the kids off so I can finish
my last night of couples bowling.
Well, look at that, its Monday morning already and Ihave barely any energy to even
make it through this day, let alone the entire
week.
Starting this week, my daughters have softball games two nights a week, added to their
practices. My boyfriend just started his baseball season, so his games are every weekend,
if Ihave the time to even go watch. Plus, the
last volleyball tournament of the season is
Saturday, which is also my oldests 10th
birthday.
My son also starts his baseball season
sometime within the next month, so that gets
added to my schedule.
So with my Monday-Friday job, my kids
sporting games/practices, school events, my
after office hours work events, doctors appointments, dentist appointments and any fun
time Ican fit in, I can feel my energy siphoning out of me like the gas in my vehicle as
Im running around like a mad woman.
But, this wont last forever. My kids will
be grown and on their own before Iknow it,
so I cherish every busy, rushing last minute.
There isnt anything in the world Iwould
rather do than see the smiles on their faces as
they hit that ball over the net, or smack that
ball in the outfield as they run for bases.
I am more than OK with this crazy, beautiful life of a busy mom, even though Ifeel
like a walking zombie most days.
At least I can wear my flip flops.

to the schools road.
I figured this would be the time to do it because blacktop
would be over top of that, said Hayden. Were talking to
the PRIDECommittee about maybe doing something like
that.
Sandblasting of the purple retaining wall is also set to be
complete by the end of this week, and Hayden says if anyone
has any ideas for it, to let him know.
We got tired of the paint, he said. My thoughts were to
put a clear coat on that and leave it the way it is, but there
are some other thoughts of colored sealers. I want that done
before graduation (May 16).
Once road bans are cleared, Hayden says Baughman
Trucking and Excavating would like to get the parking lot
prepped, with blacktop happening hopefully before July 1.
It looks like that can happen, said Hayden. Once thats
done, were going to paint all the handicap areas around the
building, and all the parking areas, so that looks a little better
too.
Lighting for the parking lot is also changing, switching to
LED, which Hayden says will be brighter with less posts.
Mark Porter, principal, said cameras in the parking lot may
also be a possibility, but fiber-optic lines are required for the
installation and costs are still unknown. With the underground already in place, Hayden says that could be added
anytime.
On other agenda, the board approved a resignation from
varsity volleyball head coach Becky Hartzell. Although
Hartzell did not provide a reason for her resignation in her
letter, she wrote she will always be grateful to the school
and teams for teaching (her) so much about the sport and
life.
I regret leaving this position, she writes, but look forward to what the future will bring for these young ladies.
The board also approved new hire Kelly Harm, Jim Falls,
as the 2015-16 special education teacher, and Melissa Woj-

cik, music teacher, as the assistant play/musical adviser. Marcus Leland was approved as an assistant track coach, and another track co-op contract (2015-17) was approved with the
Cornell School District.
Mays monthly meeting will be held Monday, May 18,
with a time change to 6 p.m., to accommodate the eighthgrade graduation ceremony.

Cornell Police Department


Brian Hurt - Chief of Police 715-239-3707

The City of Cornell, in cooperation with the Wisconsin Department of Justice, will coordinate a Prescription
Drug Take Back initiative Saturday, May 16, at the Cornell Police Department.
This effort will continue to bring focus to the issue
of prescription opiate abuse. The goal of the Take Back
Day is to provide a safe, convenient and responsible
means of disposal, while educating the community
about the potential for abuse of these medications.
Unused or expired medicine should never be flushed
or poured down the drain. Water reclamation facilities
are not designed to remove them, and trace amounts of
pharmaceuticals are showing up in rivers and lakes
around the world.
With the opiate epidemic devastating families and
communities across our state, we must work together
to remove unused prescription opioids from circulation;
they need to be collected and destroyed, Wisconsin Attorney General Brad Schimel said. This program will
also reduce the environmental hazards associated with
the improper disposal of unused prescription drugs.
Guidelines:
All waste pharmaceuticals must be generated by a
household no businesses are allowed.
Bring prescription (controlled and non-controlled)
and over-the-counter medications, ointments, patches,
non-aerosol sprays, creams, vials and pet medications.
Do not bring illegal drugs, needles/sharps, inhalers,
aerosol cans, bio-hazardous materials (anything containing a bodily fluid or blood), personal care products
(shampoo, soaps, lotions, sunscreens), household hazardous waste (paint, pesticides, oil, gas) or mercury
thermometers.
Participants may dispose of solid, non-liquid medication(s) by removing the medication from its container and disposing of it directly into a clear sealable
plastic bag. Plastic pill containers/bottle will not be collected. Blister packages are acceptable without the medications being removed.
Liquids will be accepted during this initiative. However, the liquids, creams and sprays must be in their
original packaging and evenly distributed within the
boxes of collected solid prescription medications. Liquids without the original packaging will not be accepted.
Illicit substances, such as marijuana or methamphetamine are not a part of this initiative and should not be
placed in collection containers.

Tales of our Beginnings


Cadott Cornell Lake Holcombe areas
Blacksmithing required a lot of hard work. Whether it was horse shoeing, forge welding or repairing farm machinery, the smithy never knew what his next task would be,
and the shops were hot, smoky places to work.
Fritz Miller, an uncle of George Miller (former druggist in Cadott), had a shop at the
intersection of Main and Seminary Streets.
His living quarters were in the back of his shop.

It all started because she wanted something fun for the
neighborhood kids to do.
I am not from around this area, said Jennifer Krueger.
And there is a lack of fun activity for children in this area.
That discovery led Krueger to plan the first KiddoPalooza
in Cornell, set for 10 a.m. to 3 p.m., Saturday, May 16, at the
Cornell High School.
Krueger says anyone is welcome to attend, but the free
event is geared toward expecting mothers and children up to
12 years old.
Along with vendors like Usborne Books, Juice Plus, Young
Living Essential Oils and Thirty-One Gifts, the Cornell Police Department and Boy Scouts will also be at the event.
I am displaying safety, said Barb Close, Cornell police
officer, referencing bike, computer/texting, drug/alcohol,
strangers, bullying, ATV and water safety.
Close says she will also hold a drawing for bike helmets
donated by Mayo Health Clinic, and have hand outs.
I hope this event takes off, says Close. We need these
types of things in Cornell. I am hoping that people stop by
my display and asks questions on any of my safety topics.
Rhonda Schmidt, troop leader for Girl Scout Troop 3280,
will be there, and says her girls have an activity planned for
the kids in attendance, along with sharing some past experiences the girls have done. Girl Scout cookies will also be
on hand at her booth.
Along with the vendors and presenters, homemade childrens items, games, crafts, prize giveaways and health concessions will be available.
I plan to make this an annual event, says Krueger.

Charisse (second from left) and Eivind Oland (far right) were welcomed into
the Lake Holcombe Lions Club at an officer installation and new member induction April 22, at the Lions pavilion. Past District Gov. Pat Mrotek (far left),
of Cadott, inducted the new members. Mrotek blindfolded the two and had their
sponsor, Lion Bob Nelson (second from right), lead them around the room by
hanging on to one anothers shoulders. Mrotek said Helen Keller approached
the Lions in 1918, and asked them to be Knights of the Blind, which has been
the theme of Lions International ever since. Nelson then placed Lions pins on
each member, who were also given a folder of information as to the background, meaning and objectives of Lions International.

Chronic classes make living well possible


By Ginna Young
For some, living with chronic conditions everyday is an uphill struggle. Thats where the
Living Well with Chronic Conditions Workshop comes in.
The classes will take place Wednesdays, May 20 through June 24, from 12:30 to 3 p.m., at
the Cornell Area Care Center (CACC), and are conducted by healthcare professionals from
Mayo Clinic.
It talks about symptom management, stress reduction, and how to talk to your doctor
about what youre experiencing, and the right treatment for you, said Katie Matott, CACC
referral manager. Its a good umbrella class that covers many different diagnosed conditions.
Some of the chronic illnesses covered in the six-week workshop include diabetes, arthritis,
high blood pressure and heart disease. Topics will focus on learning to deal with pain and fatigue, and discovering better nutrition and exercise choices.
This is an all evidenced-based program, which means theyve done extensive studies on
it, and its proven to reduce the problem youre trying to
solve, said Matott.
Matott found out about the program through her leadership
role in Stepping On and Powerful Tools. The Living Well
program is the third installment offered in the Chippewa
County push for better health management.
Im always looking to bring more health-based classes to
the area, said Matott.
To register for the free Living Well Workshop, call 715726-7777 by Friday, May 15.

Matt Nedland, Rocky Winchel and Will Hattamer work on the last removal of the
old concession stand at Lake Holcombe School. The purple walls and brown
shingles came down, and have been replaced with sheetrock and an updated
look. The renovation is part of the commons and awards case renovations at
the school.

Holcombe Happenings
By Janice Craig 715-595-4380
Several dozen people from Holcombe
attended the Pregnancy Resource Center annual banquet at Club 8 in Ladysmith Thursday evening. Almost 200
people were in attendance. What amazing testimonies were given, and the special speaker challenge was fabulous.
Our young people are faced with such
challenges these days, and choices, and
we must help them find the right way to
live.
The Holcombe United Methodist
Church held their annual quilt show Saturday. What beautiful quilts. One of
them already had a blue ribbon from
some other show. The luncheon was delicious. As usual, this event had over

100 people admiring the hard work that


was very evident in these quilts. Everyone of them deserved a blue ribbon.
Denis and Gayle Kirkman traveled to
the Twin Cities Sunday, where they
joined with Gayles three brothers and
their families, and two aunts to celebrate
Denis 80th birthday. Denis has lost 30
pounds, so I am not quite sure how to
congratulate him.
Sunday was the first charcoal chicken
dinner put on by the Holcombe Lions
and Leos. The Holcombe Womens
Club brought in various sweets for sale.
Everything was delicious and well attended again.
Long time resident Dorothy Reeve
passed away last week. Her funeral was

held at the Cornell Presbyterian Church,


Saturday, and was filled with friends,
relatives and neighbors. Our sympathy
to her family and loved ones. There was
a great deal of visiting of friends that
hadnt seen each other for years.
There were cars lined up all along M
Saturday morning, as they were putting
in their boats. It was fishing opener and
doesnt everyone go fishing on opening
day?
The flowers are gracing our yards that
we didnt even have to lift a hand to
plant. When we were kids, we put one
under our chin and we could tell if we
liked butter or not. Rhubarb is coming
up, and I can hardly wait until we get
enough to make cake or pie.

By Kayla Peche
Aside from swearing in two incumbents, Paul Wallerius
and Lyle Briggs, the Cornell School Board approved two
staff member resignations and a hire for the 2015-16 school
year at the April 27 regular school board meeting.
Jason Jaenke, Cornell first-grade teacher, was the first resignation approval by the board.
Jaenke served Cornell Elementary for seven years, and in
his resignation letter, thanked the district for the opportunity
to teach and coach students. Jaenke said he desires to teach
upper middle-school-aged students, and Cornell doesnt have
opportunities in that.
A resignation was also approved for Ryan Kelke, marketing and business instructor. In his resignation letter, Kelke
wrote he is moving to Tennessee, and will continue working
in some form of education.
Id like to note that I am not leaving my position because
of dissatisfaction at the job, Kelke wrote. If I were to be
staying in Wisconsin, I wouldve hoped to continue pursuing
my career at this school district. I appreciate all the professional development and growth as a teacher I have gained
from my time here at Cornell.
Briggs said he was on the committee which hired Kelke,
and he is sorry to see him go.
I think he did a fine job while he was here, said Briggs.
I would like to thank Jason and Ryan for teaching in Cornell.

Knights bounce back


By Kayla Peche
After two solid conference wins, the Cornell-Lake Holcombe
Knights Baseball team was stumped by the Bruce Red Raiders
Thursday night, but bounced back at home against Cadott.
April 30 vs. Bruce (L 17-2, conference)
In Lake Holcombe, the Knights were struck out by Bruce April
30, after their pitcher got nine Ks and walked one in four innings.
The Red Raiders scored in every inning, while Cornell-Lake
Holcombe only received a pair of RBIs from sophomore Jeremiah Reedy late in the game, bringing junior Cole Stephens and
sophomore Trenton Glaus home.
Bruce hit the ball well, said John Lee, Knights head coach.
We had eight costly errors.
Reedy started on the mound and was relieved by sophomore
Noah Nohr, who went two more innings before his classmate,
Payton Bowe, pitched the last inning.
Leading hitters for Cornell-Lake Holcombe were Reedy, who
went two for three with two RBIs, and senior John Stender Jr.
and Nohr, who both went one for two. The Knights lost to Bruce,
17-2, ending the game with a 10-run rule in four innings.
Weve been playing so well, Lee said. Im not sure what
happened. Im sure we will bounce back on track the next game.
May 4 vs. Cadott (W 2-1, non-conference)
The Knights did bounce back with a 2-1 victory against the
Cadott Hornets May 4.
It was a defensive battle, said Cortland Spletter, Knights junior. Both teams made some great plays. Luckily, we were able
to string together a couple of hits in the eighth and drive in the
winning run.
Cadott scored one in the first inning while Cornell-Lake Holcombe came back with one in the bottom half of the first. Stender
led off with a walk, stole second base and advanced to third by a
hit from Reedy. Sophomore Matt Kostka added an RBI, bringing
Stender home with a sacrifice fly.
Lee says the game went scoreless until the eighth inning, when
the Knights scored the winning run. Reedy reached first base on
an error, followed by a base hit by Kostka. With the winning run
on second, Nohr followed with a base hit to score Reedy home.
I knew it was going to be tough, said Spletter. Cadott is always tough. Reedy did his job though, and threw strikes, and we
were able to play behind him and come out on top.
Reedy went all eight innings, giving up one run on six hits, one
walk and eight Ks for the victory. Leading hitters were Kostka,
who went one for three with an RBI; Nohr, who was one for four
with an RBI; and Reedy, who had the other hit.
The boys bounced back after a tough loss with Bruce and
played an almost flawless game, Lee said. I am real proud of
them.

Cadott golf putts


to first place finish
By Kayla Peche
The Cadott Hornets Golf team had a busy week with invites scheduled one after the other. After a third place finish
at home, head coach Dick Kyes said the team was down, but
all was turned around, when the team took first at the Pine
Valley Golf Course in Marathon.
April 28 at Neillsville
Fighting against their conference competition McDonell
Central, the Hornets placed second at the April 28 invitation
at Neillsville.
McDonell came in first with a score of 166, only two points
lower than Cadott, while the host, Neillsville, came in third
with 188.
Individually, sophomore Henry Wojtczak had a score of
38, followed by junior Matt Irish with 42. Both sophomore
Payton Freagon and senior Kaeden Thom had a score of 44.
Sophomore Kaylee Rudnick scored 52 to finish out for
Cadott.
April 30 at Whispering Pines Golf Course
The Hornets hosted their first meet April 30, at Whispering
Pines Golf Course in Cadott.
The meet went very smoothly, said Kyes.
McDonell Central was the winner again for this Cloverbelt
Conference meet with a score of 156, while Regis followed
with a score of 167.
The Hornets finished out the top three with a score of 170,
only three points behind second place.
Wojtczak and Irish led for Cadott with a score of 40, and
Freagon wasnt far behind with 42. Thom added 48 and Rudnick added 49 to the Hornets overall score.
May 4 at Pine Valley Golf Course
Cadott rallied back from their third place finish at home to
earn their first victory of the season May 4, at Marathon.
The team had a score of 330 putting them ahead of the
other competitors at the Pine Valley Golf Course.
Freagon shot one over par with a score of 72 to take first
place for the individuals. Wojtczak shot a 78 to receive a third
place individual medal.
Kyes says the team is looking forward to playing the irish
course at Whistling Straits in Kohler May 9. The Hornets
return to the conference, battling in Eau Claire May 11.

By Kayla Peche
After an upsetting loss against Bruce, the Cornell-Lake
Holcombe Knights Softball team came together to pull out a
win against Birchwood, bringing their conference record to
3-2.
After the Bruce game we needed to work on batting, said
Sam Sippy, Knights senior. But then, the Birchwood game
definitely showed we were capable.
April 30 vs. Bruce (L 14-4, conference)
While hosting Bruce at home, the Knights couldnt fight
back against the runs the Red Raiders produced.
The Bruce game really upset us all, said Sippy. That
game made it necessary for our coach to make a couple
changes.
(Four days later, the Knights changed pitcher and lineup
positions, and took home their third conference win of the
season.)
After falling behind by six runs early in the Bruce game,
Cornell-Lake Holcombe managed to bring four runners
home. Bruce responded with eight more runs, ending the
game early in a 14-4 loss.
Losing to Bruce really made us want to come back
stronger, Sippy said, which I think is what fueled us to
come back as a team to win against Birchwood.
May 4 vs. Birchwood (W 16-14, conference)
Sippy was right that something changed from the Bruce
game to the May 4 game against Birchwood, and the Knights
didnt go out without a fight.
Cornell-Lake Holcombe fell behind 13-7 by the six inning,
but at the top of the seventh, the Knights rallied with nine
runs to take the lead and win.
If it wasnt for a burst of confidence in the top of the seventh inning, we would have never come back, Sippy said.
Freshman Danielle Fasbender went four for five, senior Allison Spegal went three for five, and seniors Kammey
Kendall and Makenzie Ewings went two for three at the plate.
We stuck together as a team and it came down to who
wanted the win the most, said Fasbender.
Ewings said she was happy to be back on the field after
being out with an injury from basketball season, and on the
mound, Ewings picked up three strikeouts and walked one to
earn the win for Cornell-Lake Holcombe.
We need to take one game at a time, Fasbender said.
And if we lose, we know what to work on. And if we win,
we look at what we could do even better.
The Knights travel to Prairie Farm May 8, for their next
game, before playing Winter May 14.

Hornets softball rallies


but creates no sparks
By Kayla Peche
The Cadott Hornets Softball team fell to two Cloverbelt
Conference competitors this week, but senior player Marisa
Sperber says the team will improve.
We have been working hard in practice to get better so we
can achieve that higher performance level, Sperber said. I
think we did a pretty good job offensively, and will continue
to progress throughout the rest season.
April 28 vs. Osseo-Fairchild (L 13-10, conference)
Sperber says overall, the game wasnt terrible April 28,
against Osseo-Fairchild. Iknow we have a few more gears in
us.
Cadott started out behind, 4-0, but six runs in the third
pushed the Hornets ahead by one. The Thunder fired back with
eight runs, giving them the edge over Cadott.
Senior Brittany Erickson, Sperber and sophomore Bobbi
Burgess each drove in two runs for the Hornets, with senior
Devin Kulow and Sperber scoring twice.
Although the game was close, Cadott fell to Osseo-Fairchild,
13-10.
I just think as a team we need to work on fielding better
and knowing what to do in certain situations, said Erickson.
While on the mound, Erickson said she had a tight strike
zone, but she only allowed three runs and had three strikeouts.
May 1 vs. McDonell Central (L 8-4, conference)
Following the loss against Osseo, the Hornets took on conference opponents McDonell Central May 1, at home. Cadott
started off slow, not scoring until the sixth inning.
We are struggling as a team at the plate, said Pete
Schroeder, Cadott assistant coach. Weve been unable to get
the timely hit to keep a rally going, or create the spark needed.
Leading hitters for the Hornets were junior Bailee Bremness,
who went two for four with a double, and senior Racheal Semanko, who reached the bases three out of four times at bat.
Senior Devin Kulow was out for an injury this game, and
Schroeder says freshman Elizabeth Mickelson stepped in and
played well at first base.
Despite the 8-4 loss, the Hornets went without committing
any errors for the second time this season.
The Hornets played Stanley-Boyd May 5, followed by Regis
May 7, and Thorp May 8.

Before the Cornell-Lake Holcombe Knights Track team
hosted and won their first meet of the season April 30, in Cornell, the Knights landed in the top five at Chetek-Weyerhaeuser.
April 28 at Chetek-Weyerhaeuser
The girls and boys teams landed in the top five for Cornell-Lake Holcombe April 28, as the girls team placed second
behind Unity and the boys placed fourth.
Jake Ebner, track head coach, said junior Elizabeth Sproul
broke a team and personal record in the shot put with 31-9,
finishing in fourth place at Chetek-Weyerhaeuser.
Junior Jordan Geist took second in the 100-meter dash and
200-meter dash, while senior Thia Moreen placed second in
the 400-meter run.
For girls field events, senior Gretchen Schroeder placed
second in the pole vault, freshman Kierra Walters placed second in the long jump, and junior Courtney Lundmark placed
second in the discus. Junior Kayla Vavra took third in the
triple jump for the Knights.
The girls 4x200-meter relay placed second while the 4x400
and 4x800 took third during the meet.
For the boys team, sophomore Colton Hetke placed second
in the 110-meter hurdles, while freshman Andrew Brosted
placed second in the shot put. For the relays, the boys 4x100
took fourth as the 4x400 and 4x800 made the top five.
April 30 at Cornell
The Knights may have won the track meet on their home
turf April 30, but that wasnt the only excitement of the
evening.
For the second time this season, Hetke won four events
(high jump, 110 hurdles, 300 hurdles and 400 dash). Hetke
first completed four victories April 23, at Bruce.
Im hoping to keep the success going, Hetke said, and
score as many points for my team as possible to help us win.
Geist wasnt far behind, with two first-place finishes in the
200 and 100 dash. She also set a team record with 13 minutes, 14 seconds in the 100 meter dash.
Weve all been training really hard for these results and
its nice to see it pay off, Geist said. My goals are to just
keep improving by setting personal or team records, and to
compete well at conference.
Others setting team records were Lundmark, who threw
the discus 101-7.5 for a first place finish, and Schroeder, at
8-6, in the pole vault for second.

With the win, the boys and girls teams each had a lot of individual athletes in the top three spots. Freshman Ashlynn
Moore received first place in 3,200-meter run and second in
the 1,600-meter run. Moreen took first in the 400 dash while
K. Vavra took first in the 800 run, followed by freshman Isabelle Dixon in second.
Also coming in second were senior Kaitlin Peterson in the
300 hurdles, freshman Emily Vavra in the 2-mile run, and K.
Vavra in the triple jump with Sproul in the shot put.
For girls relays, the 4x800 and 4x400 landed in first place
for the Knights.
The boys came in first as well out of the seven schools participating. In the 1,600 run, junior Matt Nedland took second,
with his classmate, Sam Peterson, in third. Peterson also took
third in the 3,200 race.
Sophomore Kyle Goltz placed second in the long and triple
jump for the Knights, while freshman Dakota Popp placed
second for the pole vault, and Brosted placed third in the shot
put.
Cornell-Lake Holcombes next meet is in New Auburn
May 9.

Baughman sets record but hungers for more


By Kayla Peche
Lifting over twice your body weight may seem impossible
for some, but within the sport of powerlifting, limits are
meant to be broken.
Cornell resident, Mack Baughman, a junior at McDonell
Central High School, entered the competitive world of lifting
this year, and picked up more than just weights.
While in his second attempt at the Worlds qualifying competition April 11, in Wisconsin Dells, the 220 pound 17-yearold lifted 501 pounds to set a state record in deadlift, moving
Mack forward to the top competition.
I missed my third attempt at 512 due to lack of focus,
Mack said. Im never satisfied with how I do though. Its
my motivation. Im always hungry for more.
Powerlifting consists of three lifts the squat, bench press
and the deadlift. Competitors must meet certain criteria in
each lift in order to qualify as a good attempt.
The sport of powerlifting is a raw strength sport, said
Bob Brodt, McDonell powerlifting coach. Although there
is technique involved, it is not near as technical as the sport
of weight lifting.
Each lifter is allowed three attempts in each lift, with one
passing attempt counting toward the total. Once three lifts
are completed, the best attempt in each event is added together for a three-lift total; whoever has the highest total wins
the contest.
Originally from Cadott, Macks coach, Bob, has been
coaching high school sports since 1972, and began coaching
weightlifting/powerlifting two years later. Bob taught and
coached in Chippewa Falls for 29 years, and coached football
and track in Cornell before going to McDonell Central.
After coaching football, he took over a regular lifting pro-

gram at McDonell and said he soon saw potential in one of


his lifters Mack.
He has trained with
weights since ninth grade
and I just steered him toward
competing, said Bob.
After being told by his
coach to try a competition,
Mack entered the Last
Chance meet in Whitehall to
attempt qualifying for Nationals.
I think thats when he reMack Baughman and
his mother, Pam.
ally got bitten by the bug to
lift more competitively, Bob said. He placed second and
realized he could do very well at powerlifting.
Mack says Bob inspired him to compete in powerlifting,
and he is glad Bob did.
I love the experience it brings to me, Mack said. Its an
adventure.
With a few competitions under his belt, and a record-breaking lift, Mack will head for Worlds in Las Vegas the beginning of November. Bob says Worlds is a six-day-long meet
with approximately 600 entries from around the world.
It is not a meet that anyone can enter, as some meets are
open, Bob said. There are different weight classes and age
groups allowing for numerous people to compete against
their own age group and weight.
Mack said Worlds is the top meet to get to for powerlifting, and he is happy to have the opportunity to compete in it.
Im not exactly sure what my goals are, Mack said. But
I do want to continue it (powerlifting) as long as possible.

COURIER SENTINEL

A lot of talk, but again no action on competitive inequity


By Matt Frey
Star News sports editor
With an ad-hoc committee recommendation and a membership petition on the agenda, and a year-old membership
petition still in play, the schools of the Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association (WIAA) were armed with
enough ammunition to address concerns of competitive inequity within its ranks.
But the 435 or so member schools attending the WIAAs
annual meeting in Stevens Point April 22, were unable to pull
the trigger.
The ad-hoc committees success factor proposal never got
to a vote. It was replaced by last years membership petition
calling for a 1.65 multiplier on the enrollment figures of all
private schools, with the exception of single-gender schools,
which already have a 2.0 multiplier.
After several twists, turns and pleas in both directions, the
multiplier was rejected, 293-141.
The latest membership petition, known as the Minnesota
or reducer plan, which calls for adjusting enrollment figures
based on the number of students receiving free or reduced
lunch, came up short, 265-167, assuring nothing will change
in the near future with the WIAAs process for determining
divisional placement in its post-season tournaments.
Placements will continue to be made by the previous years
third Friday in September enrollment figure for each school
(and combined enrollment for co-ops).
Multiplier re-emerges
It took more than two hours to change nothing, starting
with an immediate dismissal of the success factor the WIAAs
ad-hoc committee produced after several months of work and
research.
The success factor would have used a point system over
three-year periods to potentially move teams up one division
in soccer, volleyball, basketball, softball and baseball. The
biggest criticisms of the plan were that it would punish students who wouldve had little to do with the previous success
of the team being bumped up.

It also didnt directly address the small-school rural vs.


urban issues between public and private schools driving most
of the competitive inequity debate.
The multiplier petition from a year ago asked for enrollment figures of all non-public schools be multiplied by 1.65
for post-season divisional placement.
I believe we need to have the multiplier, put it to a vote
and if theres changes that need to be made after that, so be
it, Highland principal Josh Tarrell said. But to stay where
were at now and have the competition the way it is today is
not fair. Its not fair between public and private schools.
Private school representatives called the multiplier unfair
and asked where the 1.65 figure came from (a question that
was never answered).
Theres a lot of discussion that needs to be made, said
Bob Biebel, administrator of Oshkosh Lourdes Academy.
And if we are going to make a decision that affects student
athletes, regardless if they are private or public, I think it is
our responsibility as administrators, as educators, to thoroughly debate that topic and make the best decision possible.
The motion to replace the success factor with the multiplier
passed by a ballot vote 231-202.
Attending Cloverbelt Conference schools were 8-7 in favor
of the change, including Gilman, Greenwood, Loyal,
Spencer, Altoona, Fall Creek, Stanley-Boyd and Thorp.
The 1.65 figure was criticized by several private school officials.
Notre Dame Academy President Bob Pauly said the plan
would crush the athletic programs at small private schools.
He also proposed changing the multiplier to 1.25, but that
amendment failed 297-134.
Im afraid to trust this group, Pauly said. 230-202. Is
that whats going to be for this final thing where we get into
a 1.65 multiplier that I know isnt going to work and is going
to lead to lawsuits? Thats ridiculous.
Len Collyard, the athletic director at Kettle Moraine
Lutheran, proposed an amendment calling for the number of

open enrolled students at public schools be doubled in those


schools enrollment figures. It failed on a hand vote.
This will divide the membership, Chris Zwettler, the athletic director at Madison Edgewood, said of the multiplier.
It will divide the conferences that weve worked so hard to
build the last 10 years. This will divide it if we vote on it and
it will not be uniform.
Reducer fails too
The discussion on the reducer petition wasnt lengthy, but
it hinged on the correlation between poverty and athletic participation within a school district.
Under the reducer plan, a teams enrollment for divisional
placement purposes would have been determined by an X(Y x 0.4) = Z formula with X equaling the schools enrollment, Y equaling the number of students on free or reduced
lunch and Z being the final enrollment figure.
Chad Harnisch, principal at Sauk Prairie, and Ryan Mangan, Mequon Homestead athletic director, voiced their opposition to the plan, saying there wasnt enough data available
to back such a plan.
At one point I was in favor of it, Harnisch said, until I
learned that some of my assumptions about the numbers of
free and reduced lunch students attending private schools
were wrong. The impact of vouchers in urban areas has led
todominant powerhouse schoolslikely (going) down a
division as a result of this as its written.
Dave Henrickson, the athletic director at Whitehall, closed
the discussion by proposing the unlikeliest of solutions:
We need honest people, he said. I know this is too simple of a solution but I think it comes down to calling a spade
a spade.
If youre a powerhouse program, step up and let people
know that by saying we are going to be playing a division
above because we have this good of a program, this good of
athletes, this good a team and we want a challenge.

Four youth bag turkeys in spring hunt


who may not have been able to hunt otherwise.
You dont have to pull the trigger for hunting to be rewarding, said Walters. This is the young kids hunt, not the
mentors.
Paulsen, who has also mentored for the last several years,
said his hunt with Geist went well, hunting morning and
evening to get her bird.
It was good weather, aside from the wind, said Paulsen.
We heard all kinds of gobbling in the morning, but didnt
see any.
He said that evening, one tom and six jakes came into
range, but the tom wouldnt give them the satisfaction, so
Geist took (and made) a shot at one of the jakes.
We would like to thank all the landowners who allowed
the first-time hunters to use their land, says Gilbertson.
Without everyone working together, this program would not
be possible.
Gilbertson says the local chapter of the NWTF is always
looking for participants and mentors to help with the learn to
hunt programs, including turkey, bear and deer.
Ages can range from 10 to 100, as long as that person has
never hunted or bought a license to hunt that species, said
Gilbertson. There is no cost to the hunter, only your interest
and participation is needed.
Our goal is to get more people in the outdoors, be safe
with firearms, and take advantage of the beautiful
country we live in. Youll
enjoy it.
For more information on
participating or mentoring in
a youth hunt, contact Gilbertson at 715-312-0003.

The Flambeau Mountain Flock of the National Wild
Turkey Federation (NWTF) sponsored a youth turkey hunt
for children in the Cornell/Lake Holcombe area Saturday,
April 11, and Sunday, April 12.
The Learn to Hunt program sponsored by the DNR,
NWTF and the 21st Century Learning Center was a great success,said Paul Gilbertson, mentor and coordinator.
Six first-time turkey hunters hit the woods during the twoday event, and four of those came away with a turkey. But
Gilbertson says all of them came away with stories that will
last a lifetime.
Participating in the hunt this year were Jackie Farrell,
Joshua Jones, Nathan Jones, Jena Geist, John Minnich and
Colton Minnich. Mentors included Tim Walters, Larry
Paulsen, Angie Farrell and Gilbertson.
Also involved were Shelley Lee, who set up the hunt with
the DNR and the NWTF, as well as John Schreiber, conservation warden. Schreiber also instructed the students in a
safety and shooting class prior to the hunt.
Schreiber, who has taught the class the last two years for
Cornell and Lake Holcombe, says participants are given an
overall education for kids who have never been turkey hunting, or know nothing to little about the animal or sport.
He says things covered include turkey history in Wisconsin, conservation programs, seasons and laws, biology of
turkeys and hunting techniques, and safe hunting. Youth are
also given the opportunity for a hands-on experience at the
range before heading to the woods.
I think its a great thing, said Schreiber. It gives the
youth an opportunity to have a classroom setting and a handson learning environment that they can then actually apply to
the field.
Schreiber says this gives kids the full aspect, referencing
those who may only have an idea about hunting, or just be
interested in it.
It kind of gives them that start from 1-10, says Schreiber.
that A-Z, that they can go and learn how to hunt, learn the
behavior of the turkeys, the birds, the animals, and they can
actually go and successfully hunt. I think its a really neat
thing for the kids.
Four of the six youth earned bragging rights, including
LakeHolcombe fifth-grader Colton (with mentor Gilbertson),
10-year-old Holcombe resident Jena (with mentor Paulsen),
and Holcombe seventh-grader Joshua and fifth-grader Nathan
(with mentor Walters).
Walters, who has mentored for the program since its start
in Cornell, says its rewarding to participate with the youth,

Its a Girls Hunting


Life
By: Monique Westaby
Bang
Well, I didnt make it onto
the water this weekend. In
fact, this girl hunter barely spent any time outdoors this
weekend.
Although temperatures were well into the you should
be outside category, my internal temperature said stay
in the shade.
With baby on the way, and already hot-blooded genes
coursing through my veins, easing into the above 40 degree weather is going to take some getting used to. Bear
hunting is just around the corner, and my frequent trips to
the facilities makes me wonder how bouncing around
the woods at eight months pregnant is going to work.
As I think about the fun activities summer holds, I cant
help but look through my photographs of all the fun things
that happen in the sun. Aside from bear hunting, fishing,
mudding and just sitting around grilling with friends, my
favorite summer activity has to be wasting bullets.
Ammunition isnt cheap, so it doesnt happen as frequently as I would hope, but days spent with friends
shooting trap, sighting in guns and trying to hit the pop
can are some of the best memories a girl could have.

Top to bottom: A
friend and I try to
see whos a better
shot; look closely
and you can see an
empty shell being
ejected from my
shotgun as I get
ready for another
clay; I try my skills
with an AR-15 (and
end with a huge
smile on my face);
the recoil from a
Magnum Research
.500 Smith & Wesson is shown.

Water temperatures on northern lakes have climbed into the


low to mid-50 degree range.
Most lakes across the Northwoods are about one to two
weeks past the main walleye spawning period, so the fish
should be mostly recovered and getting back to active feeding.
Northern pike should also have recovered from their annual
spawning ritual.
Largemouth bass have just begun to move into shallows
and after a few more days of warm temperatures, action could
be good in the shallow bays.
Stream and river levels are generally low for this time of
year.
More state parks and forests report modern bathroom and
shower facilities are open. Conditions are again very dry and
fire danger has risen back to high and very high, so forestry
officials ask anglers, campers and everyone else to be extremely careful with fires and any sources of ignition.

Turkey hunting is in full swing, with hunters having fairly


good success hunting late morning. Birds have been very active with toms gobbling and displaying.
To outdoor enthusiasts dismay, mosquitoes are out in larger
numbers, and ticks have also been abundant.
Whip-poor-wills are back and calling at dusk, and bitterns
can be heard calling from marshes around daybreak. Woodcock are peenting from opening areas at dusk.
Sandhill crane and goose nests have been found. Osprey
have returned to their nests at Buckhorn State Park and a
whooping crane has visited the park.
Bloodroot, hepatica, marsh marigold, early meadow rue,
trout lilies and spring beauties are in bloom. Yarrow and wild
leek have also emerged.
Mushroom hunters looking for morels report they seem to
be lagging a bit. Those found are just the small grays and are
dry; no sign of yellow morels yet.

An Outdoorsmans Journal By Mark Walters


Good Fun on Puckaway
Hello friends,
This past week I took part in my first official walleye
fishing tournament. This 15th annual Lake Puckaway walleye tournament was run by Bob and Carrie Hill, owners of
Tucked Away tavern in Marquette. The 50 boat tournament
was held on Lake Puckaway, where Wisconsins state
record northern pike (38 pounds, landed in 1952) was
caught.
My partner on this adventure was my 23-year-old stepson, Travis Dushek, and, of course, my golden retriever,
Fire.
Saturday, April 25 High 61, Low 35
There are some important memos that need to be put into
this story. One, there has been an extreme cold spell and it
has shut down the walleye bite on this 5,000 acre lake that
has a maximum depth of 6 feet.
Yesterday, Travis and I pre-fished. We trolled with
crankbaits and crawler harnesses, and drifted with leeches,
minnows and crawlers. For our efforts, we were rewarded
with one catfish and one sheepshead.
At the tournament meeting last night, which I might add
was a whole bunch of fun and held at Tucked Away, a nonbite seemed to be common talk.
In this tournament, each team may enter six walleye that
must measure at least 15 inches. Last year, the catch was
incredible, with most teams catching their six fish early in
the day and the winning team taking the money with 23
pounds of walleye.
The way I found out about this tournament, was that I
came here to fish out of my canoe for walleye, and watched
the weigh in, made some new friends, hung out at Tucked
Away, and decided to enter this year.
So last night, Travis and I had a big night at Tucked
Away, and he slept in the back seat of his Chevy pickup
(that did not work out well) and I slept in the bed of mine.
When the rooster was crowing this morning, I discovered
when I went to bed, I was so tired I used a gas jug full as
a pillow, and had a real pillow just an arms length away.
So this morning, it is very cold and very windy. The 50boat line up has each boat operator motoring up to a pier
for a livewell inspection. Then, in numerical order, each
team gets to takeoff and catch walleye.
Travis and I observed our competition, and came to the
conclusion that perhaps my 16-foot Northport Troller,
pushed by a 40-horse Mercury (late 80s) was probably the
oldest, smallest, ugliest, rig worth the least amount of
money in the tournament.
So Trav and I head out to one of our secret spots and
within minutes, I am fighting a dandy that fell prey to one
of my crankbaits. Just netting my trophy was a challenge
for Travis because, like I said, it was very windy.
Reality struck when my hog walleye was a 2 pound cat-

fish.
Travis and I fished our butts off, always checking lines
that picked up a lot of weeds, and changing tactics and
watching our competition.
I am serious when I say we really put everything we had
into this experience, and fished right until the last minute
we could. Our end results were two catfish and a
sheepshead.
At the weigh
in, there certainly were walleye caught, but
out of 100 anglers, and most
of these guys
and gals are very
good at catching
walleye, only 38
were weighed
in.
My new buddies, commonly
known in the
area as Two
Grumpy Men,
Harry Bowey
and Wally Steinke, of Princeton,
won with two
walleye, giving
them a total of 9
Travis Dushek, Fire and a catpounds.
My good pal, fish he wished would have been
Justen
Kohn, a walleye.
and his partner, Mike Glover, took second, and caught both
their fish in the first half hour of the day.
I watched each fish being weighed, and almost every one
weighed just over a pound. Travis and I felt no shame, as
we tried hard, played hard and laughed a lot.
In case anyone forgot, I am in the market for an upgrade
in the boat department.
We shall return.

Excellence in Education Banquet - Continued from Front


the real world, she said not everything turns out as planned
in life.
My final message to you is to be intentional, but to embrace change, Hecker said.
A month prior to the banquet, Hecker was laid off from her
13-year position at Target, and the same day, passed her real
estate exam. Hecker said for the last five years, she planned
to work for her husbands business in real estate, and although her layoff was unexpected, she was excited for her
new journey to begin.
It gave me confidence to know that I was always looking
ahead, Hecker added. My advice is to be in the drivers
seat, and really own your own destiny.
She encouraged students to plan ahead as they move forward with their futures, and suggested they be curious,
choose the more uncomfortable path, and focus on emotional intelligence and
relationships
gained
throughout their lives.
I really wanted to sincerely congratulate all of
you, Hecker said. Ireally
wish all of you the courage
that its going to take to
make your dreams a reality.
Following the speech, students and their educators
spoke on the reasons why
each were chosen.
