Serving Marshfi eld and thesurrounding communities for 50 years

With credit given to her for almost a year already served behind bars, 21-year-old Porscha Rizzi of Spencer has just a little more than six years left to serve for trying to hire somebody last year to kill her two ex-boyfriends. Clark County’s district attorney thinks she should be in prison a lot longer.

Portage County Cir-cuit Court Judge Rob-ert Shannon did not agree with district at-torney Lyndsey Boon Brunette’s sentencing recommendation last week, and instead sen-tenced Rizzi to seven years in the state prison system to be followed by 10 years of extended su-pervision. While Shan-non said Rizzi’s involve-ment with her mother in a plot to have the two men killed was “hei-nous” and represented a “credible attempt” to have someone killed, he did not order her to sit behind bars for 15-18 years, as Boon Brunette recommended.

Rizzi received the same prison term as her mother, 46-year-old Shari Klimmer, for attempting to hire at least three different men to kill the two former boyfriends with whom she has young children. Rizzi was sentenced for her part in the plot on Oct. 9, while Klimmer received the same sen-tence from a different judge in late August. Part of the sentencing for both women is that they have no contact with each other, or with Rizzi’s children, unless a family court approves it.

Rizzi and Klimmer were arrested early last November after two different citizen informants contacted police to say the women had tried to hire them to kill the ex-boyfriends, who both live in Minnesota. Police posing as yet another potential hit man then met with Klimmer, and she of-fered them jewelry and a watch as a down payment for the killings.

Boon Brunette said last week that Rizzi has attempted to downplay her role in the murder-for-hire plot. After she was fi rst arrested, Rizzi told police she knew her mother was meeting with a hit man, but now says otherwise.

“I think Miss Rizzi has minimized her involvement in this offense,” Boon Brunette said in court last week. “She

says now that she had no idea where her mother was going ... I just think there’s a lot of minimizing. I’m assuming she wants to soften the blow that may occur as punishment.”

Boon-Brunette also asked for a 15-18-year prison term for Klimmer, but the judge in that case ordered seven years.

In Rizzi’s case, Boon Brunette said there are anger issues that make Rizzi a potential threat to society.

“She has a hard time managing her anger,” the district attorney said. “I think that’s a very dangerous char-acteristic of this defen-dant.”

Looking for someone to kill the ex-boyfriends is a sign Rizzi does not know how to handle stress, Boon Brunette said. The men were both attempting to take custody of the children away from her, and she reacted by trying to

have them murdered.“I think things were falling down

around Miss Rizzi and that made her desperate,” Boon Brunette said.

She also noted that her two children are also victims. They will grow up not knowing their mother at least for a while, and she tried to eliminate their fathers.

“Ultimately, Miss Rizzi’s goal was to have them have only one parent,” Boon Brunette said.

She recommended a long prison sen-tence in part because Rizzi needs time in custody to reform, she added.

“Miss Rizzi does not have a very good character even at her young age,” Boon Brunette said, and must decide if she wants to change her ways.

“I don’t think that’s something that will happen on its own,” Boon Brunette said. “I think she’s in need of a huge wake-up call.”

Public defender Robert Thorson ad-mitted that his client made a “terrible mistake” in trying to hire a killer, but said a “lack of social network” in her life played a role. Her father was not present in her life, Thorson said, and her mother -- the co-defendant in this case -- was not a good role model.

“It seems like she’s lived a good portion

of her life with a hole inside, a vacuum, or a void,” Thorson said. “She had no real person there to keep her in perspective.”

Thorson said the void she had experi-enced as a child was playing out for her again as her ex-boy-friends tried to take her own children away.

Family members presented the court with references de-scribing Rizzi as “a good person,” but Thorson said her per-sonality only goes so far in sentencing.

“I do believe that’s true (that she’s a good person), but we are not here as a result of what she is as a person,” Thorson said. “What her and her mother tried to do is not tolerated by society.”

But Thorson noted that Rizzi has graduated from high school, has held jobs, and has no prior criminal record. He recommended a prison term of fi ve years to be followed by 10 years of extended supervision.

Rizzi addressed the court, and said she is “truly, truly very sorry for everything that has happened.

“I’m thankful that everything got stopped when it did,” she said.”I take re-sponsibility for everything that I’ve done.”

In forming his sentence, Shannon said

he considered the “seriousness and aggra-vated nature of this offense and the effect that this crime has had on the victims

and others. He said Rizzi has “a need for close rehabilitational control” that can only be met while she’s in custody.

Noting that Rizzi fully expected the murders could occur, Shannon said to her, “Miss Rizzi, you have committed a heinous crime. You have vio-lated trust of not only specific victims, but the community’s gen-eral trust ... You rep-

resent a very real and dangerous threat continuously to these victims and the community at large.”

Shannon said he believes the 7-year prison term will give Rizzi ample time to decide if she wants to straighten out her life. If she does not, she can be returned to prison in the 10-year extended supervi-sion period.

“This defendant needs time to examine her life,” the judge said. “That’s the fork in the road where she’s placed herself as a result of the bad decisions she’s made.”

Rizzi is to begin serving her 7-year term in prison immediately. She was given credit for the 340 days she sat in the Clark County Jail after her arrest last November.

New court date set in Clark sheriff’s complaint case

The judge presiding over a court case pitting Clark County Sheriff Greg Herrick against the county’s Board of Supervisors and its Law Enforcement Committee has set a Nov. 16 hearing to consider a motion to dismiss the lawsuit.

Lawyers representing the county and its supervisors fi led the motion to dismiss on Oct. 6, asking Judge Thomas Eagon to throw out the case without further consideration. The complaint filed by Herrick earlier this year asks the court to prevent the county from interfering with his constitutionally-guaranteed right to manage the Sheriff’s Department without “micro management” from the committee or full Board of Supervisors.

The case was first filed in court by Herrick in late winter when the Law Enforcement Committee tried to stop Her-

rick from taking delivery of a new pickup truck, even though the purchase had been part of an approved budget. Herrick ar-gued in his suit that the committee has no authority to tell him what vehicle he can buy, as long as it is within budget limits.

The county relented, and Herrick is now driving the truck. However, he said he will continue to pursue relief in court if the committee continues to deny the rights he is given by the Constitution as an elected sheriff. Those rights include his prerogative to provide law enforcement as he sees fi t, including what vehicles depart-ment employees will drive.

Though Eagon denied Herrick’s re-quest for an injunction to block the com-mittee truck action, he said the sheriff would likely prevail in a court case assert-ing his general rights as sheriff.

Changes coming for state civil service system

Matt Pommer

Republicans are moving quickly to enact changes in Wisconsin’s century-old civil service system with Gov. Scott Walker calling it “common sense re-forms” that will address the “bad actors” employed by the state.

Critics said it will expand patronage opportunities, suggesting that any “re-forms” ought to have bipartisan study and support before being enacted.

The legislation would replace civil service exams, now the fi rst step in state hiring, with a system based on written resumes. That clearly would place a fo-cus on the references included with the resume. References from those with ties to the party in power likely would carry more weight in the fi rst step in hiring.

Hiring would be centralized in the Department of Administration under the division of Personnel Management. Currently, each state agency makes its own hiring and fi ring decisions. Critics said shifting the hiring and fi ring deci-sions to DOA might bring political con-siderations from the governor’s offi ce into the employment equations. Both hiring and fi ring would be accelerated.

Perhaps the biggest change for the 30,000 persons covered under civil service would be the elimination of se-niority protections and bumping rights. In hard times, it would allow layoffs of any employee regardless of how many years they have been in state service. Annual performance reviews also would be implemented.

Laying off senior workers would save more money because they usually have higher salaries than those recently hired. It’s a tactic often employed in the private sector. Whether the laid off workers would have any re-employment right could be another issue.

Under current bumping procedures,

a worker facing the loss of his job can move (bump) to a lower paying job. Loss of the bumping protection could dis-courage veteran workers from accepting appointments to higher jobs or middle management positions.

Workers with families may prefer to just continue their current jobs even though they have the knowledge and skills for the higher positions in govern-ment. That reluctance, in turn, could open the door to hiring outsiders with politically acceptable resumes.

Walker contends that civil service protections would be “fully intact” if the

Republican-sponsored measure is enacted.

“If anything, we’re enhancing the benefi ts of the old civil service system. We’re just get-ting rid of stuff that’s outdated,” according to the governor.

Walker is best known for legislation which stripped power from public employee unions in 2011. The governor has said civil service

laws would continue to protect govern-ment employees. He championed the union law changes during his aborted attempt to run for the Republican nomi-nation for president. The changes made it easier to fi re teachers and public em-ployees, he had told audiences in Iowa.

Rick Badger, executive director of the Wisconsin State Employees Union, said Walker’s earlier union-busting ac-tivities had placed the state’s tradition of clean government on “life support.” Civil service rules “exist to ensure state employment decisions are based on what you know, not who you know,”

he said.“Any changes coming from a gov-

ernor who is clearly obsessed with silencing workers, punishing foes and concentrating on his own political power should be viewed with alarm,” added Badger.

The Wisconsin Legislature enacted a statewide civil service system in 1905, following New York State in 1883 and Massachusetts in 1884. The Progressive Movement of the early 20th Century pushed for its enactment to combat patronage systems of the 19th Century.

Ironically, the proposed changes could be an interesting political tool when Wisconsin elects a Democrat as governor. Republicans might be livid with what unfolds.

Senator: No reason to scrap GABPage 2 - Tribune Record Gleaner - Wednesday, October 14, 2015 OPINION

by State Senator Kathleen VinehoutD, Alma

“Wisconsin is the only state with a truly nonpartisan board structure,” wrote Professor Daniel Tokaji in 2013. The Ohio State law professor hailed the Govern-ment Accountability Board as “America’s Top Model” of nonpartisan elections.

Clean elections and corruption free elected offi cials are goals most of us share. Yet few states have laws that truly create a nonpartisan watchdog to assure public confi dence. Wisconsin is blessed to be a national leader.

“The United States is an outlier among democratic countries when it comes to the institutions charged with running our democratic elections,” Professor Tokaji wrote in the UC Irvine Law Review. He continued, “There is one conspicuous ex-ception to the partisan character of state election administration: Wisconsin’s Gov-ernment Accountability Board (GAB).”

The GAB and its staff have received several awards and accolades.

In January of 2014 the Presidential Commission on Election Administration cited the GAB as a model for improving accessibility to polling places for the dis-abled. Their frequent and unannounced audits of polling places identifi ed 10,488 issues for disabled voters during the study period April 2011 to April 2013 as reported in a 2014 Legislative Audit Bureau report.

In April of 2014 the PEW Charitable Trusts ranked Wisconsin third in the US for election performance. The nonparti-san group measured elections 17 different ways including ballots rejected, post elec-tion audits, voter turnout, registration rate, waiting time to vote, online voter education materials. PEW researchers reported only Minnesota had a higher voter participation rate than Wisconsin

in the 2012 presidential race. Researchers also reported Wisconsin had dramatically improved its data since 2008 – the year the GAB began operations.

These accolades are but a few received by the only nonpartisan state watchdog of elections in the United States. Adding further to the evidence of a well-run gov-ernment accountability agency, the Leg-islative Audit Bureau recently released an analysis of complaints and investiga-tions conducted by the GAB and found no major concerns with the activities of the agency. Auditors recommended a quicker resolution to complaints and the GAB responded with a new computer system to track complaints.

As a reward for excellent service to the people of the state, two western Wisconsin legislators, Representatives Dean Knutson and Kathy Bernier, introduced legislation to kill the watchdog and fi re its long serv-ing administrator. It is widely believed this legislation is partisan “payback” for investigations in which the GAB was involved.

The bill replaces the nonpartisan judg-es of the GAB with two partisan appointed commissions to control elections and ethics and creates a partisan confi rmed administrator of the commissions.

Notably, the bill restricts the ability of the new commissions to initiate investiga-tions including prohibiting any member of the commissions from submitting a sworn complaint to initiate an investiga-tion. The bill limits money to conduct an investigation to that specifi ed by the leg-islature – and makes no release of funds. The effect of curtailing access to money is to shut down investigations of illegal activities related to elections, ethics and

Pro-Life group applauds Senate actionOn Oct. 13, the State Senate Committee

on Health and Human Services passed three bills that, together, ban the sale and use of aborted fetal body parts and defund Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin of ap-proximately $8 million annually.

Senate Bill 260 would prohibit the sale and use of fetal tissue derived from induced abortions. Senate Bill 237 would redirect federal Title X family planning funds away from organizations that perform abortions. Senate Bill 238 would eliminate heavily infl ated Medicaid con-traceptive drug reimbursement rates.

Pro-Life Wisconsin Legislative Direc-tor Matt Sande offered the following comments:

“Pro-Life Wisconsin applauds Chair-

woman Vukmir and Senators Moulton and LeMahieu for their courage and con-viction in moving these critical pro-life bills through committee today. Senate Bill 260 affirms the human dignity of aborted preborn children. Ethical and effective research does not depend on the desecration of aborted human beings. Senate Bills 237 and 238 further defund Planned Parenthood of Wisconsin, the state’s largest abortion provider. Abortion is not healthcare and government must stop using our tax dollars to fund abor-tion providers. We urge the full Senate to debate and pass these bills without delay.”

It looks like it is coming. A glance at the 10-day forecast this morning revealed some readings that could give us our fi rst annual visit from Jack Frost. If that be-comes true, look for it about the time this newspaper gets to you in the U.S. mail.

Not that I’m complaining. Our fall weather has been just great so far. It is amazing how fast the fall colors started showing up on our trees. Just a week ago our maples were all green. Now, the prettiest is a mixture of yellow and red. I wondered what the predicted winds will do this weekend?

I had a choice to make this week. Should I write about politics, or review some of the old Greenwood Gleaners given to me last summer by June Noeldner. I decided on the latter.

I have the papers sorted into two stacks. One with a few copies from 1943, mostly 1944, and some from 1945. The other stack is older, but pretty well shop-worn and the dates are missing on most.

In the Dec. 2, 1943, issue there were a couple of stories about efforts to collect clothing and rags for the war effort. Re-member, we were right in the middle of World War II at the time.

The other story was about schools col-lecting old paper. Winners were divided into three categories. Rural and one room parochial schools, state graded and two-room schools and village and large paro-chial schools. A total of 116,000 pounds was collected, which was three times the amount collected previously.

The Greenwood Rotary was pleased to announce that they had just become a grandfather. Last year they sponsored a new Rotary Club in Loyal, who in turn sponsored a new club in Granton this year.

Doctor Olson ran an ad announcing that there would no longer be offi ce hours

on Wednesday and Saturday evenings, until May 1. He would also appreciate calls for house calls in the morning so he could devote afternoons to offi ce hours.

Five different theaters were advertis-ing in the Gleaner. Trail of the Lonesome Pine was showing at the Parkway. Admis-sion was 25 cents, plus three cents tax. Children were nine cents and one cent tax.

Other theaters included the Adler Neillsville, New Adler Marshfi eld, Loyal Theatre and Owen.

Thirty-three men left from Clark County for military service. Those from Greenwood were Edward T. Wolowik, Edward A. Malinowski and Lester W. Severson.

Those from Loyal included Sherrin L. Mack and Russel A. Gehrke.

In the April 6, 1944, issue it was noted that the county war boards were not al-lowed to authorize any further conversion of tractors or farm implements from steel to rubber and only for drive wheels and only in the most urgent needs.

The April 20, 1944, issue contained a letter that Fred Lakosky, chairman of he Clark County Draft Board had sent to the director of Selective Service in Madison. His concern was the new regulations which might mean drafting men who were working in the cheese factories. This could cause such a shortage of men that many cheese factories might have to close. He said members of his draft board had stated they would resign rather than draft those cheesemakers.

In a related story there had been a meeting held in Owen to discuss the cur-rent farm laborer shortage. High school ag teachers had been among those who attended the meeting.

A wastepaper drive is coming up and people were urged to save their paper

for the drive. They even suggested it might be un-American not to give.

Traffic deaths was a concern back in 1944. A total of 147 people had been killed during the fi rst three months of the year, com-pared to 76 the year before.

The April 27, 1944, issue mentioned three young men who had just received their wings to fl y airplanes. They included Erling Ellingson, LaVern Durst and Myron Kenyon. Also in that issue were several letters written by Clarence Meinhardt who had written from a prisoner of war camp. He told how grateful the men had been for the Red Cross packages they had just received.

The May 11, 1944, pa-per announced the results of the recent paper drive. School children collected 312,317 pounds in the last three drives held.

Graduating from St. Mary’s 8th grade were Dan-iel Brey, Margaret Kitzha-ber, Jean Klinke, Francis Kohlnhofer, Francis Lind-ner and Harry Plunkett.

Visitation will be held at the church starting at noon until the time of the service. Rev. Janusz Kowalski will offi ciate. Burial will follow in St. Hedwig’s Cemetery.

Frances Suda was born on Oct. 27, 1929, on a farm eight miles north of Loyal, to Louis and Jenny (nee Celesnik) Suda. As a young child she was raised at the Wildwood cheese factory south of Thorp and later at the general store and family farm in Longwood. She received her education at Oakwood School and Withee High School. On May 8, 1948, Frances married Edward R. Gosse at Sacred Heart Catholic Church in Withee. They divorced in 1981. While together, they farmed for a few years near Loyal and for many years south of Longwood where they raised nine children. In addition to being a homemaker, farm wife and loving mom, Frances worked as a Tupperware salesperson and dietary aide at the Clark County Health Care Center for many years. Frances moved to Owen and then to Thorp where she resided with her companion, Art Czajkowski. Frances enjoyed keeping in contact with her family whether immediate or extended, baking, sewing, quilting, cheering on the Green Bay Packers, Milwaukee Brewers and other sports teams, traveling, trips to casinos, bowling, hugging her cat (Peanut), tending her fl owers and feeding her birds. She was proud of her membership in the Thorp-Stanley Red Hat Society and relished the many friendships she made. Frances loved her family and lived for fam-ily get-togethers. Her smile would light up a room. Frances was a “class act” from her impeccable appearance to her gracefulness, compassion, humor, caring, and fun-loving attitude, which led to many interesting adventures. She will be deeply missed by her family and friends.

Frances is survived by her children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren: son David (Vita) Gosse of Owen; son Edward (Constance) Gosse of Kenosha and their son Ryan (Kendra) Gosse and their children Garrin, Raya, and Ila of Lincoln City, Ore.; son Ron (Annie) Gosse and their son Alex of Marathon; daughter Judy (George) Mynatt of Green Valley, Ariz.; daughter Cathy (Jay) Schaefer of Manchaca, Texas, and their children Zachary (Angelica) Schaefer of Houston, Texas, and Bri-anna (Ben) Peterson of Austin, Texas, and their son Caleb; daughter Nancy Gosse of Abbotsford; daughter Lisa (Jon Custer) Gosse of Stratford, and her daughter Mandy (Dan) Martz and daughter Carrie of Itasca, Ill.; son Michael (Sara) Gosse of Merrill and their son Devin Gosse of Wausau; and son-in-law Troy Frey and children Erica and Anthony of Marshfi eld. She is further survived by her siblings: Jane (Art) Peterson of Withee, Lucy (Cal) Stokes (who she lovingly raised while a teenager) of Deer Lodge, Mont., and Bill (Marilyn) Suda of Hamilton, Mont.; and numerous nieces, nephews, cousins and friends.

Frances was preceded in death by her parents; her ex-husband, Edward; her special friend, Art Czajkowski; and her youngest daughter, Cindy Frey.

Music was provided by Vicente Cortez, organist, St. Mary’s Choir, and Jody and Judy Conner, vocalists. Interment was in the Windfall Cem-etery in Granton. Casket bearers were Kevin Ress, Chris Pernsteiner, Greg Mahoney, Matt Rollins, David Rollins, Brian Lavey, Dennis Buchanan and Dale Rollins.

David Glenn Lavey was born on May 15, 1932, in the town of York, Clark County, to Glen and Elizabeth Lavey. He received his elementary education at Romadka Grade School. Dave graduated from Loyal High School in 1950, and from vocational and Adult Education School in Eau Claire on Oct. 26, 1951, with a degree in barbering. He married his high school sweetheart, Beverly Rollins, on Aug. 27, 1952, at St. Ste-phens Catholic Church in Chili. He worked in Waterford and Eau Claire for a short time, then for Milo Mabie in Neillsville for three years. They moved to Granton in 1956 where he started Dave’s Barbershop. In 1997, Dave sold his shop, but continued working part-time until 2012. Dave was a member of St. Stephen’s Catholic Church in Chili from 1956-98 where he taught CCD classes, lectored and sang in the choir. When the church closed, he became a member of St. Mary’s Catholic Church from 1998 until the present, where he was also a lector. He sang with a barbershop quartet in his teen years and then with the Clark County Male Chorus. Dave was a member of the Granton Rotary for more than 50 years, receiving the Paul Harris Award. He was a lifetime member of the FFA Alumni and a member of the Granton Fire Dept. Dave also helped organize the Granton Community Park and was an honored citi-zen in 1992. He loved to fi sh, hunt, trap, and play cards with his family and friends. Dave was a very humble and gentle man. He loved his customers and teaching his trade. He loved his family and was a very proud grandpa. Anyone who knew Dave knew how much he loved people and it was rare to ever fi nd him without a smile. Although Dave has clearly touched the lives of many people it was his faith, fam-ily, friends and customers that made his life happy and fulfi lled. May we honor his precious life by living with a little more kindness, compassion and patience.

A sincere thank you to all his medical care staff -- including the Marshfi eld Clinic, Ministry Saint Joseph’s Hospital in Marshfi eld and the House of the Dove. The care given was exceptional. He especially loved all of his nurses.

Results from a third party audit of 27 of Wisconsin’s County Forests are in and for the 11th consecutive year these forests have exceeded the standards for certifi ed forests as set by the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI®) and/or Forest Steward-ship Council (FSC®). SFI and FSC are two of the most widely recognized forest certifi cation systems in North America. Representatives of NSF-International For-estry Program and Scientifi c Certifi cation Systems Global Services conducted the evaluations and certifi cation of Wiscon-sin’s County Forests. Certifi cation means that these forests are managed according to strict environmental, social and eco-nomic standards.

According to Jane Severt, Wisconsin County Forests Association Executive Director, “The 2015 certification audit results demonstrate the exemplary efforts individual county forest administrators and their staff make to properly man-age these public properties. Collectively, county forests in Wisconsin represent the largest public landholding in the state covering 2.4 million acres.”

The focus of the Wisconsin County Forests is to insure the long-term health and sustainability of forest ecosystems while providing benefi ts to the public. Pri-mary objectives of these forests include resource and timber management, rec-reational opportunities, wildlife habitat improvement and watershed protection.

Wisconsin’s County Forest system provides more than 6,000 miles of snow-mobile, ATV, skiing/hiking trails and for-est roads along with a wealth of hunting and fi shing opportunities. Forest products from these forests generate over $30 mil-lion annually in timber sale revenue for the counties and townships encompass-ing these lands and are a signifi cant con-tributor to Wisconsin’s $20 billion timber industry.

A cooperative management framework between the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the counties provides the opportunity for the county forest group certifi cation program. DNR holds the group certifi cates for the 27 par-ticipating counties and provides technical support to county forest management

efforts. Paul Delong, Chief Forester of the DNR states, “Our department works closely with the staff of the County For-ests to manage these healthy, productive

and sustainable forests. The county for-est program is a unique partnership that stretches back 86 years and it’s a great example of how local governm

lobbying.Currently the GAB has access to funds

needed to conduct an ethics or elections violation. The bill forces the commissions to come back to the legislature to beg for money needed to investigate – leaving the lawmakers holding the purse and, essen-tially, starving the watchdog.

Any current employee or investiga-tion would be reviewed by the politically appointed Secretary of Administration who would direct the transition to the new system, deciding which employees, assets, contracts and other matters are transferred to which of the two new com-missions.

The proposed law would be in place for the 2016 elections.

In less than a week the bill has gone from invitation for cosponsors to a full joint hearing – providing citizens with what is likely to be the only opportunity for testimony.

Professor Tokaji concluded his article saying, “the GAB’s experience therefore provides a ray of hope for those of us who believe that the United States should move away from its partisan system of election administration.”

The people of Wisconsin now appear to be the last ray of hope remaining to save the GAB. Please let lawmakers know you want to keep our nonpartisan system of elections and ethics. Our democracy is at stake

Signature win: Rockets pad resumé with win over Edgar

DEAN LESAR/STAFF PHOTOSpencer-Columbus senior running back Hunter Hildebrandt barrels for yardage with Edgar tacklers Austin Borchardt (25) and Reece Heidmann draped on him during the Rockets’ 20-15 non-conference home win on Oct. 8. The win improved Spencer-Columbus’ season record to 8-0.

When it comes time for WIAA officials to de-termine seedings for the upcoming high school foot-ball playoffs, they may look to the strength of the opponents a team has beaten during the season. Spencer-Columbus’ 20-15 nonconference win over perennial power Edgar on Oct. 8 should gleam in their eyes.

The Rockets improved to 8-0 on the season with the win, and can claim the outright Cloverbelt Con-ference season champion-ship by winning at Osseo-Fairchild (3-5) this Friday night. If it does, it will be the fi rst-ever football title for a Spencer-Columbus cooperative program since it started in 2002, and the fi rst football title for any Spencer team in the past 33 years.

The Homecoming win over Edgar last week may not count in the conference standings, but it does in defi ning the legitimacy of a Rocket football program that fi rst made a name for itself last season by advancing to Level 3 of the WIAA playoffs. Poised to make its name known even more this year, Spencer-Columbus has also notched wins over highly-ranked Stanley-Boyd and Eau Claire Regis, and should have a legitimate claim to a top seed when the WIAA hands out pairings following Oct. 16 games.

Edgar, which was ranked fi rst in Divi-sion 6 of the state coaches’ poll earlier this season, was coming off a tight loss to Marathon when it rolled into Spencer last week. The Rockets were hardly daunted by the green, gold and white of the Wildcats, as Spencer-Columbus scored a touchdown on its fi rst possession of the night and never trailed. Some huge plays on offense and defense in the second half secured the victory.

The Rocket offense needed four cracks at the end zone after a fi rst-and-goal at the 6-yard line in the fi rst period. Senior quarterback Calvin Lenz got the score on a fourth-and-one sneak, but Noah Zastrow was stopped short on the conversion run and the Rockets had to settle for a 6-0

lead. A well-executed drive with a trio of third-down conversion pass plays car-ried Spencer-Columbus to a 14-0 lead late in the first quarter. After forcing an Edgar punt on three plays, the Rockets took posses-sion on their own 29-yard line, then drove 71 yards in 11 plays for the touchdown. Lenz hit Tim Bauer for one fi rst down on a third-and-11 play, then connected with Ryan Busse on third-and-7 to move the chains again. On an-other third-and-7, Lenz found Hunter Hildeb-randt open in the fl at and the senior running back picked up 16 yards on the catch-and-run. Lenz broke free two plays later for an ap-parent 23-yard touch-

down run, but a holding penalty wiped it out. That mattered little to the Rockets of-fense as Jonny Tomke scored on a 25-yard

run on the very next play. Lenz pushed in the 2-point conversion run and the Rockets led 14-0 with 1:42 left on the fi rst quarter clock.

Rocket senior line-man Dakota Andreae stopped Edgar’s next drive by slamming a Wildcat receiver to the ground with an open-fi eld tackle on a third-and12 play. Spencer-Columbus was also unable to pick up a fi rst down on its next drive but Noah Zas-trow tried to run out of the punt formation and was stopped a yard short to give the ball back to the Wildcats.

The Rockets forced another punt. On the next S-C possession, Edgar’s Matthew Urmanski tipped a Lenz pass into the air and then grabbed it for an interception at the Wildcat 26-yard line with 6:42 left in the half. The Wildcats then used up all the remaining time to drive 74 yards on nine plays, with Alec Hafferman plowing in from a yard out for the touchdown with 26 seconds left in the half. Borchardt then hit Xavier Hackel on a halfback option pass for the 2-point conversion to cut the halftime lead to 14-8.

On Edgar’s fi rst second-half posses-sion, the Wildcats went for a fi rst down on a fourth-and-2 play in S-C territory, only to have Hildebrandt shoot a gap and dump Hafferman for a loss. The Rockets took over at their own 36-yard line, and needed just fi ve plays to score again. Lenz got the points, running left on an apparent option play, but keeping the ball and zip-ping around the end for a 40-yard run. He was again stopped short on the conversion run, but the Rockets led 20-8 with 6:24 left in the third quarter.

Edgar answered quickly, with a 13-play, 71-yard drive that featured six runs by Wylie Frahm and fi ve runs and a pass reception by Hafferman. Hafferman got into the end zone from six yards out with 30 seconds left in the quarter, and Hugo Calderon added the point-after kick to cut the Rocket lead to fi ve.

The Rockets drove deep into Edgar territory in the fourth period, but the drive stalled out when Lenz couldn’t get around the edge on a fourth-and-four run. Edgar took over on downs with 6:41 to play, and three plays netted eight yards. The Wildcats decided to punt from their own 29-yard line with 4:45 and let the defense get the ball back.

It wouldn’t happen.Starting on their own 39 after the punt,

the Rockets picked up a fi rst down at the 50 on runs by Lenz, Zastrow and Hunter Luepke. On a third-and-6 play, Zastrow picked up the needed yardage, but a Rocket holding penalty set up a third down at the Rocket 46. Spencer-Columbus went for broke, with Lenz fi nding Austin Post behind the Wildcat secondary for a 50-yard pass play all the way down to the Wildcat 4-yard line. As Edgar had already burned its time-outs, the Rockets only had to kneel down a few times to run out the clock.

Rocket head coach Jason Gorst said the big third-down pass play between Post and

Lenz was a game-saver.“Austin Post really stepped up,” Gorst said. “He had

to play out of position on defense early in the game due to sickness and then came up with the huge grab at the end to seal it. Calvin made a great read on the last pass of the game.”

The S-C- defense limited Edgar to 201 yards of total offense, with only 144 of it coming on 35 attempts. Hildeb-randt was the main defensive force with two solo tackles and 6.5 assists. Elijah Welsh had two solos and 5.5 assists.

“Hunter Hildebrandt was a key on defense making some huge plays,” Gorst said.

The Rocket offense produced 401 total yards. Bolstered by the clinching 50-yard reception and run by Post, the passing game accounted for 90 yards on four Lenz comple-tions on eight attempts. The Rocket ground game was again bruising, with 311 yards on 47 carries, a 6.6-yard per carry average. Zastrow ran for 115 yards on 10 carries and Lenz gained 77 yards on 11 attempts.

The Loyal football team found out why Abbotsford is undefeated and setting alone atop the Cloverwood Conference standings in a 34-12 home loss to the Fal-cons on Oct. 9. Abbotsford out-gained Loyal 417-180 in total offense and employed a relentless rushing attack that pounded the Greyhounds for 5.8 yards per attempt.

Abbotsford scored a pair of fi rst-quarter touch-downs and led 14-0 at the half. Loyal got touchdowns in the third and fourth quarters, but couldn’t add con-version points on either of them. Abbotsford broke the game open with three fourth-quarter scores.

The Loyal rushing attack was held to 153 yards on 38 attempts. Colten Roehl ran fi ve times for 48 yards and Andrew Buchanan added 38 yards on nine attempts. Roehl passed 10 times with three completions for 27 yards. Cameron Brussow had two catches for 21 yards and a touchdown.

Roehl picked off a pass and returned it 26 yards while Marcus Genteman recovered a Falcon fumble.

At 5-3, Loyal has already qualifi ed for the WIAA playoffs. It will try to improve to 6-3 when it travels to Chippewa Falls McDonell on Friday night.

Cale Jackson

Dear parents/community mem-bers:

As part of our long-term planning process, we recently held our first Strategic Planning meeting. The meet-ing was well-attended and produced some positive results. I feel good about this endeavor and I’m confi dent that it will pay dividends for our district. Although there is still much work to be done, the group has identifi ed six areas of focus. Future meetings will specifi cally defi ne each category as well as create quantifi able goals and priorities in each area. The six areas of focus are (not ranked in order of importance by the group):

-- Student Success-- Building/Grounds-- Finances-- Technology-- Recruit and Retain High Quality Staff Members-- CommunicationInput from all stakeholders in the

commu-nity will be vitally i m p o r -t a n t a s we move forward. I w a n t to thank everyone who at -t e n d e d last week a n d i n -vite you a l l t o come to the next meeting even if you were unable to at-tend the fi rst one. The goal of the next meeting, which will be held on Oct. 26, 2015, at 7 p.m., in the high school library, will be to defi ne each category and begin the process of developing the priorities.

Administrator’s comments

As the Loyal School District goes about its job of educating the community’s kids, it has daily lesson plans and weekly goals and quarterly progress reports. One thing it does not have is an all-encompassing, long-term plan of action designed to focus all work on the end result: the best possible learning experience.

The district Board of Education and about 15 community/staff members began working on a district strategic plan last week. Over the next six months, the group will work to develop a list of priorities for the school to use in making educational decisions, and will implement action strategies to make sure the priorities are being addressed.

The Board in recent months has col-lected and reviewed strategic plans devel-oped in other Wisconsin school districts. With an idea of what it wants Loyal’s plan to eventually look like, the Board took the next step in the process by holding a public planning meeting on Oct. 7. A basic list of priority categories was developed during that meeting, and the group -- any other parents or citizens who are interested -- will gather again on Oct. 26 at 7 p.m. to move forward with the process.

District Administrator Cale Jackson said last week that input from “stakehold-ers” in Loyal education is an important part of the process the Board wants to un-dertake. Parents, educators, local business owners, even current students all have an interest in making Loyal education as good as it can be, and should be involved in the process.

With the input received, Jackson said Loyal’s eventual plan will probably con-sist of fi ve or six categories of priority areas, each with action plans containing “specifi c, measurable, attainable, timely goals.” The Board will then get regular updates on the progress made in each area.

Board President Paul Gries said the Board decided a strategic plan is needed to tie together all the work the school does

under one plan of action, “so we’re not just going day-by-day and month-by-month.”

Jackson said the district has had its share of recent successes, but a look ahead to where the district will be in fi ve or more years can improve the school even more.

“To be as good as we can be, we do need goals,” he said.

The Board last week asked for ideas from community/staff members on pos-sible priority areas to be developed under the overall plan. Those attending were asked to forget about limitations such as money for now, and start with “pie in the sky” visions for what Loyal could have.

After tossing out ideas and then orga-nizing them into larger areas, the group settled on the following priority areas:

-- Student success-- Financial stability-- Recruitment/retention of quality

staff members-- Communications/community rela-

tions-- Technology-- Buildings and groundsAt the next session on Oct. 26, the group

will discuss each priority area in more de-tail, and began to identify those “specifi c, measurable, attainable” goals under each heading. Future meetings will break the larger group down into sub-groups that will each take on a specifi c priority area. Participants may choose to work on one group in an area of their interest, or be part of more areas.

The Board wants to develop the plan over the next six months. After that, the specifi c action plans will be put in place, with regular updates to the Board to track progress.

“From then on we will report twice a year on each area to see where we’re go-ing,” Gries said.

To be part of the strategic plan group, simply attend the Oct. 26 meeting in the high school library, or contact the school administration offi ce.

Making plans: District starts process of charting its long-term future

It may seem early in the school year, but many programs and post-secondary institutions want high school seniors to apply for their college(s) by Thanksgiv-ing. Normal steps in the application process include:

-- Taking appropriate high school courses (dependent on the college of choice)

-- Maintaining an adequate GPA (de-pendant on the college of choice)

-- Visiting college representatives as they come to LHS

-- Visiting campuses (This is so impor-tant -- students need to get a, “feel‚“ for their campus before spending thousands of dollars on tuition!)

-- Selecting a post-secondary institu-tion and a program of study

-- Filling out an application (can be done online)

-- Taking the appropriate entrance exam (ACT or ACCUPLACER/Compass)

-- Requesting that a high school tran-script be sent to the chosen post-second-ary institution

-- Waiting for a reply from the college of choice

-- Attending Loyal’s fi nancial aid night (Feb. 3, 2016, high school LMC)

-- Applying for fi nancial aid (cannot begin until Feb. 1)

-- Taking any necessary placement ex-ams (to determine appropriate freshmen

college coursework and eligibility for free college credits)

-- Attending a freshman orientation at the selected post-secondary institution

Please contact Mrs. Scherer OR connect to the guidance Web site for any informa-tion related to applying to college!

The ACTThe ACT is an exam that many high

school juniors and seniors need to take as part of their entrance requirements for a university degree. All of this year’s seniors took the ACT in March last year. However, if your senior needs to/would like to retake the ACT, you can fi nd infor-mation and a list of possible testing dates at: http://www.actstudent.org/

The cost for the ACT is $39.50 (no writ-ing) and $56.50 (with writing).

Contact Mrs. Scherer for more details.The Accuplacer or CompassThe ACCUPLACER and Compass are

exams that high school juniors and se-niors may take as part of their entrance requirements for a technical college degree. Seniors should only be taking the Accuplacer or Compass if their ACT scores from last year do not fulfi ll their technical college requirements. Seniors should meet with Mrs. Scherer if they be-lieve they need to take either of these tests. Cost for the Accuplacer or Compass is $20.

It’s not too soon to think about college applications

We have enjoyed an out-standing beginning to the school year at Loyal Pub-lic Schools. Our student activities have had great participation and enjoyed strong community and parent support.

As you read this news-letter you will notice the role of our school has gone beyond academic educa-tion. While we certainly take pride in the educa-tion offered at Loyal, we are making an intentional investment in the youth of our community to develop the life skills necessary to be well-edu-cated community-minded citizens. I will proudly share a few examples.

Our Athletic Club donated the profi ts from the concessions stand at the Loyal/Owen-Withee football game to the Will Power Fund for Will Maki, an Owen-Withee football player fi ghting cancer. The Volleyball and Football fans also

donated to this cause. A Loyal High School student was seriously injured in a car accident last month. Members of the FFA, NHS, as well as football players assisted in a food stand at Gauger’s Ventures to help raise money for medical expenses. By encourag-ing these small acts of kindness students learn to think of others in need without expecting any per-sonal benefit in return. They also have the oppor-tunity to plan and execute projects to raise money or

awareness of a need.One of the programs I am most proud

of is “Kids Helping Kids”. This program is designed to give our elementary stu-dents the opportunity to see how helping out other fellow students is a positive character trait. The program is lead by a group which is comprised of six students from grades 4-6. Mrs. Haselow and Mr.

Loyal off and running on another busy year of successes

Principal Chris Lindner

Schiller serve as advisors.The students sponsor fun filled ac-

tivities to raise money that is put into a fund to help a Loyal student in need. For example, if a student has a long hospital stay, a cheering up gift would be sent to them on behalf of Loyal “Kids Helping Kids”. Such is the case with their dona-tion to the LHS student who was in the car accident previously mentioned.

Our 5th and 10th grade students at-tended fi eld trips to The Highground in October. An excellent local resource for our students to better understand the sacrifi ces made for their liberty. It is vital for students to know the price that has been paid to ensure their freedom. We will be hosting the annual Veteran’s Day program on Nov. 11, at 10 a.m., and look forward to the students participation in honoring our local veterans.

The BLAST Leaders (Being Leaders And Standing Tall) will be sponsoring Red Ribbon Week Oct. 23-31, to promote drug- and alcohol-free activities. Every student, K-12 who commits to being drug and alcohol free will receive a red ribbon.

There will be drawings every day for students who make this commitment. Students will sign a red piece of paper that will be used to create a school-wide paper chain promoting our drug and alcohol free school. Pictures of activities done outside of the school day will be displayed in the elementary hall across from the elementary offi ce. Please send in any pictures you have for this effort. We will be having dress up days during this week as well. More information will be sent home with your son/daughter.

The NHS Christmas Tour of Homes will be Dec. 5. Loyal Schools will host an “open house” during the tour so citizens will have the opportunity to see the remodeling projects that have been completed following our referendum.

Congratulations to the Volleyball team for placing 2nd in the conference and to the football team who made the play-offs. Thank you to all the youth sports for a job well done as well as to the parents and coaches who make the programs possible.

The Loyal NHS will be selling Christmas wreaths this year. The wreaths

are made with balsam boughs and are wound by hand. All wreaths are decorated with

clusters of pine cones and a red velvet bow.

Loyal NHS Chapter adds new membersOn Sept. 20, Loyal High School NHS inducted 21 new members. Those new members are: Dion Bergeron (not pictured), Cameron Brussow, Luke Bogdonovich, Kayless Chalmers, Zach Geier, Elliot Genteman, Vanessa Hebert, Edrea Kubista, Tamerat Kubista, Hunter Much, Miranda North, Ashley Prusiniski, Rosa Rarick, Jordan Radue, Miriam Reynaldo, Bryanna Rayhorn, Nick Rueth, Blain Schmidt, Brody Scherer, Tanner Troutt, Devin Witt. Membership in the National Honor Society is based on stiff criteria in the areas of scholarship, leadership, service, and character. A minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.25 must be achieved in order to be considered. Potential members are then evaluated by the entire staff on their character, and a rating from 0 to 4 is given. A fi ve-member faculty council then meets and rates students in the areas of service and leadership, based on the activity sheets students return. Scores in the areas of character, service and leadership are then averaged, and students achieving an average score of 2.5 or above are considered favorably by the council for induction into the National Honor Society. Students are selected for membership by a majority vote of the faculty council. Advisors are not involved in the selection process. Once inducted, members are responsible for upholding the ideals of the organization.

“That’s Not How I Remember It” by Don Zolidis is the title of this year’s one-act play. Loyal High School students have been practicing since Sept. 2 for their fi rst competition on Oct. 23, which will be at 11 a.m., at Regis High School in Eau Claire.

The play is a fun 1980s fl ashback as mom and dad both explain their versions of how they met to their young son. This year’s cast includes seniors: Amy Popp -- mom, Shane Troutt -- dad, ReAnna Oes-trich -- Lola, Karley Wehrman -- Lola’s mom, Jose Perez -- Karl, Samantha Happe -- thug #2, Hannah Schreiner -- thug #4, Timmy Zupanc -- partygoer, and Larissa Heath -- nurse #2. Juniors in the cast are Cole Stumpner -- Lola’s dad, Karsyn Rueth -- Tricia, and Rachel Anderson -- Melissa and partygoer. Brody Scherer -- Barry, Tanner Troutt -- Yann and thug #3,

Brady Bravener -- Yann 2, Edrea Kubista -- Jessica, and Zach Geier -- waiter, thug #1, keymaster and Jim, Gabby Nikolai -- partygoer, and Zach Nikolai -- partygoer make up the sophomores. And lastly, the only freshman is Bryanna Meyers -- nurse #1. The crew is all seniors and includes: Seth Baumgartner, Alec Krasselt, Bailey Parker, Erin Froeba, Derrian Braun, Teyha Brostowitz, Quinton Orth, and Kayless Chalmers.

The students have been practicing ev-ery morning before school from 7-8 a.m., and have dress rehearsals two Saturdays this month. On Oct. 26, the cast and crew will perform the play for the 7-12th grade students. The community performance is scheduled for Nov. 8, at 4 p.m., in the high school gym, at a cost of $3 per person. Hope to see you there.

Cast and crew preparing for 1-act play competition

The Loyal Junior and Senior High School Choir members will be joined by members of the Granton Middle School and Senior High Choirs to perform Music Revue 2015. This variety show concert features solo-ists and the choirs, singing many popular songs. The pre-show solos begin at 7 p.m., with the main con-cert beginning at 7:30 p.m. The concert will be Oct. 17, at the Loyal High School auditorium/gym. There is no admission charge. The concert may be viewed on television on the Loyal School’s TV Channel, Char-ter Cable Channel 979, or on the Internet live stream by going to the Loyal School’s Web site: www.loyal.k12.wi.us, then scroll to the Greyhound TV tab. All are cordially invited to attend.

The Loyal and Granton High School Choirs cordially invite members of both communities to perform with them in the 2015 Holiday Concert. The Holiday Concert will be held on Dec. 7, beginning

at 7:30 p.m., in the Loyal High School au-ditorium/gym.

George Frederic Handel’s masterpiece, “Messiah,” was composed in 1743, and is traditionally sung during the holiday season. The choirs will be singing sev-eral excerpts from the work. Community members are invited to sing with the high school students. If you are interested in singing with the choir, please contact Mr. Anderson to obtain a score and arrange rehearsal time.

Just like it used to be Loyal 4th graders explored Reed School in early September. They entered the era of the one-room schoolhouse, when hard work and country life helped to shape a generation of Wisconsin citizens.

Mrs. Scherer recently met with all of Loyal’s 9th grade students to talk about goal setting, post-secondary education options, and graduating from high school. Last year in eighth grade, these students worked with Mrs. Lambrecht and Mrs. Scherer to develop their own four-year high school plans. Both last year and this year, these students were given the courses they must take and pass to earn a diploma from Loyal High School.

Students know that twenty-five total credits are required for graduation. Of these 25 credits, students must earn 15 and one-half credits by pass-ing the following required courses (the remaining nine and one-half credits can be earned in elective courses):

Four years of English -- 4 credits-- English 9-- English 10-- English 11 -- English 12

Three years of social science -- 3 credits-- American history I-- American history II-- Economics and world history (one semester

each)-- Pass the state-required Civics test before gradu-

ationThree years of mathematics -- 3 credits

-- Algebra-- Geometry-- Either pre-algebra (taken before algebra,) or

intermediate algebra (taken after geometry)Three years of

science -- 3 credits-- Earth science-- Biology-- One more full-year science course (animal sci-

ence AND horticulture could also fulfi ll this gradu-ation requirement)

Three semesters of physical education -- 1 1/2 credits

-- Physical education 9-- Physical education 10-- Physical education 11

One semester of co-health -- 1/2 creditOne semester of computer applications 1.5

creditThe remaining nine and one-half credits

may be met by taking other academic courses or elective courses, such as college algebra,

painting, auto mechanics, foods, computer ap-plications II, etc . . .

Eight credits of music may apply toward graduation

Students were also reminded that Pre-Algebra will not be accepted at a four-year university as a math credit. Students who take pre-algebra in their 9th grade year who want to pursue a four-year degree must take intermediate algebra in their senior year.

Students were also reminded that the animal science and horticulture combination will not be accepted at a four-year university as science credit. Students who plan to pursue a four-year degree need to earn their third science credit through a science course like biology II, body/structure and function, chemistry, or physics.

Students at Loyal are encouraged to take a vari-ety of rigorous courses so that they are prepared to succeed after graduation.

Freshmen know what they’ll need in the next four years

Get healthy -- walk to school Loyal School District students from grades K-6 (at left) walked to school on Tuesday, Oct. 7 to participate in the national Walk to School Day. Bus drivers and parents dropped students off at Loyal’s City Hall. Students who normally walk to school were able to meet everyone at City Hall. Students and teachers then began their walk to school to promote healthy lifestyles. Any student who participated received a sticker and a pencil.

Well, it is back to school and the start of the cold & fl u season is upon us. That means an increased number of visits to clinics, urgent cares, and emergency depart-ments by sick children (and adults.) Many times, patients think that they need an antibiotic when in reality it may actually make things worse. Using an antibiotic when it isn’t needed actually INCREASES the chance of a patient getting a resistant infection that will be more diffi cult and expensive to treat. Healthcare profession-als are being more cautious and judicious in their use of antibiotics. The federal government is now starting to monitor healthcare organizations and requiring spe-cifi c criteria be met before providers give antibiotics for many illnesses.

In an effort to help you make reasonable decisions about when your child needs an antibiotic and when they should be seen, the following recommendations made by the American Academy of Family Practice are based upon the scientifi c evidence and the “best practices” of major clinics around the country. These apply to children over two years of age and older. Younger children and in-fants are treated differently and you should consult with your provider for illness symptoms in that age group.

1. Upper Respiratory Infections or URIs (“The Common Cold”) - Viral infections are the most common cause of URIs and cannot be treated with antibiotics. Viral infections generally last from 7-14 days. Unless the child is running a HIGH fever (higher than 103 degrees F), they can be cared for with over-the-counter medications to treat the fever, fl uids, rest, and comfort. If they seem to be getting WORSE after 5-7 days, or are NOT improving after 10 days then they should be seen by their provider.

2. Ear Infections – Most ear “infections” are not true infections but are actually ear INFLAMATIONS and will get better within a few days without any treatment at all, and they DON’T need antibiotics. It is appropri-

Junior High students: Are you looking for a place to study after school? Do you need some extra help with your homework? Are you struggling with a class and need to catch up? Are you searching for a way to improve in that particularly hard course?

Have no fear! LEG is here! LEG (Loyal Enrichment Group) is an after-school

program held every Tuesday and Thursday from 3:30 -4:30 p.m. in Mrs. Kaiser’s room. Mrs. Kaiser or Mrs. Hopfensperger will be there to host LEG and help with homework. Feel free to bring snacks to eat as you work. The computer lab and/or library is open until 4 p.m. if you need to use these resources.

High school students are welcome to stop by for in-dividual help, too.

Parents interested in knowing if their child is at-tending LEG can contact Mrs. Kaiser, as we do take attendance.

If you have questions, feel free to contact Mrs. Kaiser at (715) 255-8511 ext. 193.

Really? Cows eat this stuff?The Loyal four-year-old kindergarten classes went on fi eld trips recently to Dietsche Dairy, as well as Adam and Rebekah Smith’s farm. The children also made butter in class to extend their unit learning about the importance of farming in our communities.

ate to watch the child for a few days before having them seen unless they develop severe symptoms (high fever, signifi cant pain, drainage from the ear). If there is no INFECTED fl uid behind the eardrum the infl ammation can be treated with over-the-counter pain relievers and warm compresses/warm air from a blow hair dryer. Ear pain lasting longer than 3 days should be seen to make sure there is not infected fl uid. Children with frequent ear infections don’t necessarily need antibiotics either, but your provider should evaluate them when ear pain occurs.

3. Sinus infections – Nearly ALL cases of bacterial sinusitis will clear up even WITHOUT antibiotics. The color of the mucous that is being blown out of the nose OR of the runny nose is not an indication of whether it is a bacterial or viral infection (contrary to popular belief.) Mucous ALWAYS starts out clear, and then turns cloudy/yellow/green as symptoms progress due to enzymes which are present in the mucous and react with the air. Encouraging your child to BLOW their nose, rather than SNIFF it back helps prevent nasal congestion that can lead to further problems. Children who have had symp-toms for less than seven days should NOT be treated with antibiotics at all. If symptoms are getting WORSE after 5-7 days, or are NOT improving after 10 days then they should be seen by their provider and antibiotics may be indicated.

4. Sore Throat – The only sore throat that should be treated with antibiotics is DOCUMENTED strep throat (either by rapid strep test or back-up throat culture.) All other sore throats are viral and will get better without antibiotics. Using antibiotics will not make viral sore throats get better faster. Your child’s provider can run the appropriate tests and decide if antibiotics are necessary or not.

5. Acute Bronchitis – More than 90% of bronchitis is viral and will not respond to antibiotics. Less than 10% are caused by bacteria and are unusual in children

less than 5 years of age. Pertussis (whooping cough) is still a concern and is preventable by making sure your children have all of their required immunizations. Your provider can help decide if it is bronchitis or pneumonia and what the appropriate treatment should be. If your provider decides it is bronchitis rather than pneumonia, antibiotics are not indicated.

6. Influenza – GET YOUR KIDS AND FAMILY IMMUNIZED! Infl uenza is a respiratory illness, NOT a stomach illness. Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea aren’t infl uenza and won’t be prevented by the immunization. However true infl uenza (rapid & sudden onset of high fever, cough, sore throat, muscle aches) is generally preventable by annual immunization. Depending on the particular season not ALL strains may be fully prevented by the vaccine BUT it usually shortens the course and makes the symptoms less severe even if the child gets that strain of virus. If your child has symptoms of infl uenza for more than 48 hours after the onset of symptoms, it cannot be treated and simply needs to run its course.

If you aren’t sure, better to be safe than sorry. Get an appointment and have your child seen. MMC-Loyal is open fi ve days a week (evening hours until 7 PM on Mon-days) and MMC-Greenwood (evening hours until 6 PM on Tuesdays & Thursdays) to see your ill child and assist you in making informed and appropriate decisions about treating your child’s illness symptoms. MMC-Neillsville has Urgent Care and Emergency Department services 24/7 and all three sites have QuiqMeds® dispensing ma-chines for common prescription medications when local pharmacies are closed.

We are pleased to offer extended access to our pedia-trician as well. Dr. Ken Weimer has offi ce hours at MMC - Neillsville on Saturdays from 9 AM – 1 PM and sees patients at MMC- Loyal on the last Wednesday of each the month from 9AM-noon. We look forward to assisting you for your child’s (or your) healthcare needs.

Senior High Band -- This year’s Senior High Band is the largest it’s been in several years boasting 34 members strong. They proudly strutted their steps to the song “Danger Zone” this past summer and fall. The band was asked to perform this year at the Athens Fair parade, which they did. Students felt this would be a good “dress rehearsal” for the Loyal Corn Fest Parade the following week plus they would get to show off their new uniforms again. They concluded their marching season with the Granton Fall Fest Parade and their Homecoming Half-time Show. The band is now prepping to perform for the Veterans Day Program.

Junior High Band -- An enthusiastic and musical group of 27 seventh- and eighth-graders makes up this group this fall. They are working on learning about the

seven elements of music and will be incorporating these elements into their music throughout the year.

Sixth Grade Band -- With their fi rst performance on Oct. 23, this group of 20 young musicians is working hard to get their parts just right. Some of them will be switching from one instrument to another as one of their pieces calls for extra percussion parts. We hope to see you at their concert.

Fifth Grade Band – September started with many fi fth-graders getting the chance to try lots of instruments. The expressions on their faces are always priceless. We had 27 of them start band. They are looking forward to their fi rst performance at the Elementary Holiday Concert in December.

Spencer wraps up another ECC title; Greyhounds second

The Spencer volleyball team bumped off Greenwood 3-1 on Oct. 6 to fi nish off a fourth consecutive undefeated Eastern Cloverbelt Conference season. Loyal-Granton, meanwhile, took care of Colby in its fi nal league match of the season to fi nish as runner-up in the ECC.

Spencer downed Greenwood on scores of 25-12, 25-8, 20-25 and 25-22 to earn the right to play Altoona in the Oct. 15 over-all Cloverbelt Conference championship match. Winning the conference again was a top Rocket team goal as this team continues the unbeaten string started four years ago.

“Four years in a row as undefeated conference champs is an awesome accom-plishment,” said Spencer head coach Buff Heller. “The whole team has worked hard for this title. Our three seniors left a huge mark on our volleyball program.”

Greenwood coach Jenni Mayenschein said her squad did not take the court ready to challenge Spencer.

“I have never had a team come out and start the match like the girls did tonight,” she said. “After preparing for Spencer for two days and having great practices, I was shocked at how they played. The third and fourth games were better, but they dug themselves too deep of a hole to crawl out of. Hopefully some lessons were learned tonight, just not for volleyball but life lessons as well.”

Senior Macie Weber led Spencer with 22 kills and four blocks. Sidney Kind had 10 kills and four ace serves. Courtney Buss led on defense with 14 digs.

Taylor Opelt had nine blocks and 13 digs to lead the Indians. Renee Herdrich had 15 digs and fi ve blocks.

Loyal-Granton 3 Colby 1The Greyhounds clinched the runner-

up spot in the ECC by defeating Colby on Oct. 8 on scores of 25-13, 25-22, 22-25 and 25-18. The 6-1 league record posted by the team helped it to a 23-7 overall season record.

“I am thrilled with how the girls came together as a team this year,” said Grey-hound head coach Lynelle Love. “We have had great leadership in our seven seniors. The girls worked hard enough to get a #2

seed in our WIAA regional. We are look-ing forward to the new season ahead and what it may hold.”

Senior Devyn Schoonover led Loyal-Granton against Colby with 15 kills and 13 defensive digs. Ryleigh Wilke and Karsyn Rueth had eight kills apiece, and Morgan Reinwand had a 7-kill, 14-dig match.

Loyal-Granton 3 Marshfi eld Columbus 2

The Greyhounds won a tough match on Oct. 6 at Marshfi eld Columbus to set themselves up for the second-place league fi nish. The game scores were 21-25, 25-19, 15-25, 25-22 and 15-9.

“We played in a hard fought game with Marshfi eld Columbus and knew going in it would be a battle,” Love said. “Columbus does not just quit playing after a set loss, but neither do we. The girls showed their toughness by winning the second, fourth and fi fth game. This match required us to maintain intensity and the fi fth set was intense and the girls showed resiliency. They had a goal and attained it. We are continuing to work on focus and maintain-ing a high level of intensity.”

Schoonover had 20 kills and Rueth had 19. Megan Schuette had four ace serves while Jaedyn Pieper had 36 set assists.

Greenwood 3 Owen-Withee 0The Indians fi nished their ECC sched-

ule at 5-2 and in third place with a straight-set win at Owen-Withee on Oct. 8.

“We started at a slow pace tonight but stayed focused,” Mayenschein said. “Ev-erybody was able to get in and contribute on tonight’s fi nal conference match.”

Opelt had 17 of the team’s 33 kills and eight digs.

Spencer at Altoona InviteThe Rockets posted a 2-2 match record

at the Oct. 10 Altoona Invitational to run their regular season record to 27-7. Spencer won over Eau Claire North on scores of 18-25, 25-21 and 15-9 and downed Cameron, 25-13 and 25-18. The Rockets lost to Hudson (23-25 and 20-25) and Osceola (25-23, 24-26 and 13-15).

“It was great competition all day,” Heller said. “We just ran out of steam in the afternoon. Hopefully it helps us build and improve going into the playoffs.”

Senior Decker Lindner returned the game’s opening kickoff 81 yards for a touchdown as the Greenwood-Granton football team downed Gilman 20-8 for its fi rst win of the season on Oct. 9. The Pirates remained winless as the Indians were able to add another fi rst-quarter touch-down and score an insurance one in the third period.

Gilman took the lead late in the fi rst quarter on quar-terback Chanse Rosemeyer’s 34-yard touchdown strike to Zach Sonnentag. Sonnentag added the 2-point conver-sion run as the Pirates took an 8-6 lead with 2:52 left in the fi rst period.

Greenwood-Granton took the lead back on Aaron Lind-ner’s 3-yard touchdown run with 1:36 left in the opening quarter. Lindner also took in the conversion run for a 14-8 G2 lead that would hold up until halftome.

Greenwood-Granton added the clinching touchdown on a 31-yard touchdown pass connection between Devin Toburen and Aaron Lindner. The conversion run failed.

The Indians were out-gained 241-178 in total offense and the Pirates ran 67 offensive plays to the Indians’ 53. However, Gilman lost a pair of fumbles while the Indians played turnover-free football.

Toburen passed 21 times and completed eight for 162 yards. Hunter North collected three receptions for 73 yards and Zach Johnson and Trevor Barth each had a pair of catches.

The Greenwood ground game had only 16 net yards, but that includes yards lost on quarterback sacks. Aaron Lindner ran 17 times for 32 yards.

The Gilman rushing game netted 143 yards, with Sonnentag picking up 75 yards on 12 carries. Rosemeyer threw 20 passes with eight completions for 98 yards.

Santa Claus is coming to the Clark County Humane Society. The shelter announces its very fi rst Pet Pictures with the Santa event, to be held on Oct. 24-25th. Mrs. Santa just might join Santa on the visit to CCHS too.

The reason for their early visit is to have Pet Pictures with Santa. This is a great chance for some wonderful pictures, and by doing it in October, you’ll have time to use the pictures for your annual Christmas cards and gifts. All pets and people are welcome. You can meet Santa and get some great pictures taken. Santa will be at CCHS on Oct. 24, from 4-6 p.m. and on Oct. 25, from 1-3 p.m. A donation for the sitting fee is requested ($10.00 per pet minimum). Pictures will be available for purchase, and the digital images will be available by e-mail as well. While we expect to see lots of cats and dogs, we’re hoping to see some unusual pets, too

For further information, call 715-743-4550 or visit the CCHS website for complete details. Join us for an enjoy-able time and get an early start on the Christmas season. All proceeds will directly benefi t the animals at CCHS.
