The Northern Great Lakes Visitor Center will be buzzing with excitement on Saturday, June 2nd as the thirteenth annual KIDS FISHING DAY gets underway. The event runs from 9 am to 1 pm and is FREE and FUN for families!

Children learn the basics of fishing, then head out to the pond and try it for real! Bring a fishing pole or use one of ours and fish for bluegill, yellow perch, and trout. Other activities include geotaku fish painting and fly tying topped off with a FREE hot-dog lunch!

In the action-comedy 21 Jump Street, Schmidt (Jonah Hill) and Jenko (Channing Tatum) are more than ready to leave their adolescent problems behind. Joining the police force and the secret Jump Street unit, they use their youthful appearances to go undercover in a local high school. As they trade in their guns and badges for backpacks, Schmidt and Jenko risk their lives to investigate a violent and dangerous drug ring. But they find that high school is nothing like they left it just a few years earlier and neither expects that they will have to confront the terror and anxiety of being a teenager again and all the issues they thought they had left behind. Rated R for crude and sexual content, pervasive language, drug material, teen drinking and some violence 110 Minutes

Each child will receive a free starter tackle kit as well as prizes donated by event sponsors. For more information about Kids Fishing Day, contact Susan Nelson at (715) 685-9983.

John Powers, Vietnam veteran, historian and author from Wittenberg gave an inspiring presentation to an appreciative audience at the Legion Hall in Wabeno on April 30. His lecture and booksigning event was sponsored by the Friends of the Wabeno Library and the American Legion Sylvan Post #44 and Auxiliary. Using easy to understand maps and language, John expertly described life in the POW camps of Korea and Vietnam. His comments, which are explained and amplified in meticulous fashion in his book Bean Camp to Briar Patch, were well received by those assembled, a group which included several veterans. John says his book is a document rather than a book as it is filled with facts and details he has painstakingly compiled from a variety of sources. By trying to understand what they endured, we honor those who sacrificed so much, John said as he ended his presentation. Bean Camp to Brian Patch is available by contacting John Powers; P.O. Box 151; Wittenberg, WI 54499. He can also be reached at www.croninbooks.org where the book is available for purchase online.

Rhinelander, WI May 21, 2012: The campgrounds are now open all across the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest (CNNF) and firewood restrictions are in place to slow the spread of Emerald Ash Borer (EAB). This invasive beetle loves to travel on firewood so please leave firewood at home, unless you live within 25 miles of your National Forest destination. The firewood restriction is one way of slowing the spread of Emerald Ash Borer, an exotic beetle from Asia that kills ash trees. This invasive insects larva kills ash trees by destroying the soft layer of wood just under the bark. Since 2002, EAB has spread to thirteen states, including Wisconsin and two Canadian provinces. While Federal and State agencies are doing what they can to prevent new infestation sites and slow the spread, the insect continues to be discovered in new locations. Movement of infested wood or nursery stock being transported from one location to another is likely the cause of new infestations beyond normal dispersal patterns of the insect. The risk of an EAB infestation on the National Forest within several years even with quarantines and firewood restrictions is very high. Acceptable firewood to bring to the CNNF includes: Wood gathered from within the Forest with a valid permit Firewood purchased from a vendor within 25 miles of the national forest destination or brought from home that same distance Wood that has been certified by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (certified wood can be brought into the Forest from a distance of more than 25 miles) In addition, state and federal laws forbid moving hardwood firewood out of emerald ash borer quarantined areas. Currently, this means hardwood firewood that has been stored, purchased, or harvested in the following areas may not be moved out of these areas in Wisconsin: Brown, Crawford, Vernon, Fond du Lac, Sheboygan, Washington, Ozaukee, Milwaukee, Waukesha, Kenosha, La Crosse, and Racine counties. A federal quarantine also prohibits the movement of hardwood firewood out of all or parts of more than a dozen other states and parts of Canada. For more information about the about EAB visit http://datcpservices.wisconsin.gov/eab/index.jsp

Bruce Dethlefsen, 2012 Poet Laureate of Wisconsin, will be visiting and performing in Wabeno on Thursday May 31 st 7 p.m. at the Big Easel Gallery and Bistro, located at 1784 Maple Avenue, Wabeno. He will spend time the next day in the classroom of Liz Couillard, local poet and high school faculty member at the Wabeno High School. The Wabeno Public Library and the Wabeno School District are cosponsoring, with support from the Friends of the Wabeno Library and artists Tim and Connie Friesen, owners of The Big Easel. Part of Dethlefsens mission as the states Poet Laureate is to encourage performances of poetry through open mike experiences, so he will be encouraging writers of poetry to read during part of the evening event. He has posted other events on his website: www.brucedethlefsen.com Library Director Carol Lee Saffioti-Hughes points out that there was close collaboration and support from Wabeno School District Superintendent Kim Odekirk as well as Connie and Tim. She commented, This event is a significant one for the Northwoods, and a great match for the growing collaboration of artists and writers in the area. We are pleased and honored to be the co-sponsors of the event. Though we have an established fiction writers group in the local area, as a poet I would like to see a poets group in the area as well, and this is an excellent way to open up the discussion. Dethlefson has two chapbooks, A Decent Reed and Something Near the Dance Floor, and his full-length book, Breather, published by Fireweed Press, won an Outstanding Achievement Award in Poetry from the Wisconsin Library Association. His new book, Unexpected Shiny Things, is published by Cowfeather Press. His poetry has been featured on Garrison Keillors The Writers Almanac and Your Daily Poem. A retired educator and public library director, he lives in Westfield, Wisconsin.Though the Thursday evening event is free and open to the public, reservations are encouraged, as space is limited and refreshments from the menu will be available at a la carte rates. The Friesens commented: We want to encourage vocal arts events on summer Thursdays, and this is a grand way to begin! Connie is an artist, and Tim a musician. We often have local musicians dropping by as well as providing regular entertainment on a weekend schedule, added Tim. The Friesens have brought arts festivals, murals, and musical performances to audiences from the local to the international. The Big Easel is also home to AVEC: Arts Vitally Enrich Communities, An aggregation of local artists from many disciplines who often show their work, and perform.

Kitty Werner, Pres. shared that everyone will be contacted for working on the Cemetery project. Jay Merline, Vice-Pres., talked about the Oconto Co. History Preservation Group. This group has a new Facebook page that can be used by all Oconto Co. history/ genealogy organizations and like minded people to improve communication among these groups. Church records are wanted by OCGS and we are seeking ways to get church records, church histories, and how we can share the histories. A newspaper was shared on Churches 100th Anniv. Nov., 11,1971, Oconto County Reporter, Centennial Issue Section 6. Suring is seeking Yearbooks/annuals and is missing certain years. Any annuals you have in your possession, please donate them to our research room, for future reference. It was brought to our attention, if we could get a business that is in the yearbook, to donate a new one to OCGS every year. This would also help our future generations with genealogy. Laptop computers were brought in and Kitty Werner and Jake and Connie Jacobs helped us through questions on researching through the 1940 census records, which just became available online. Our next meeting is May 21,2012 with Kris Mathias, a certified genealogist, who will speak on Catholic records and researching them. This includes: baptisms, communions, confirmations, marriages and funerals. Also included are parish histories, financial records, and church anniversaries.

My Journey By Bonnie Vrchota Drinking With a Straw and WrinklesWhile talking on the phone with one of my product managers, she mentioned how we get those tiny wrinkles around the mouth from drinking with a straw. I was sitting at my desk, drinking a protein shake from my mug with a built-in straw (I learned to drink tea from a straw to keep my teeth from staining and love this mug). REALLY, a straw? Wow, that hit me like a lead balloon. How come I hadn't put two and two together. I knew that pursing lips to smoke or whistle can cause wrinkles, but...a straw? Then, I realized that indeed, I was pressing my lips together to suck from my straw, oh oh. The more you do it, the more it imprints little creases around the mouth. How long have I had that mug, hmm. And at my age, I have less collagen to fill those creases in. GASP!!! Soooo, I got rid of my straw mug and use a regular mug now. I also make sure I exfoliate better around my mouth and use a good moisturizer. As for worrying about drinking that occasional milkshake, I'm sure that won't make much difference. It was the daily use of that straw-mug that could.

The CBCW (Clean Boats/Clean Water) training meeting in Townsend on Saturday 5/19/12 was attended by 28 participants who listened to Amanda Strick from Oconto County and Danielle Block from the WDNR. Amanda and Danielle presented information on the aquatic invasive species problem in Oconto County and what is being done to deal with the problem. They provided samples of the various invasive species and pointed out the differences from the native plants and animals which give the invasive an advantage. Their presentation provided quite lively discussions. One key program to help educate the public is the CBCW Program. CBCW volunteer training was provided. Most aquatic invasive are spread by boaters who can be educated to inspect and clean their boats to help stop the spread of invasive in Wisconsin.

Recently the McCaslin Lions hosted their annual fishing outing for 36 special needs children from Wabeno elementary school. This outing is greatly anticipated by the children from year to year.

A Word or Two From Dr. AdamTravel Aches and Strains Can Be a Pain In Your BackTraveling can be rough on the body. Whether you are traveling alone on business or on your way to a sunny resort with your family, long hours in a car can leave you stressed, tired, stiff and sore. In the Car: Adjust the seat so you are as close to the steering wheel as comfortably possible. Your knees should be slightly higher than your hips. Place four fingers behind the back of your thigh closest to your knee. If you cannot easily slide your fingers in and out of that space, you need to re-adjust your seat.

Consider a back support. Using a support behind your back may reduce the risk of low-back strain, pain The widest part of the support should be between the bottom of your rib cage and your waistline.

Exercise your legs while driving to reduce the risk of any swelling, fatigue or discomfort. Open your toes as wide as you can, and count to 10. Count to five while you tighten your calf muscles, then your thigh muscles, then your gluteal muscles. Roll your shoulders forward and back, making sure to keep your hands on the steering wheel and your eyes on the road.

To minimize arm and hand tension while driving, hold the steering wheel at approximately 3 o'clock and 7 o'clock, periodically switching to 10 o'clock and 5 o'clock.

Do not grip the steering wheel. Instead, tighten and loosen your grip to improve hand circulation and decrease muscle fatigue in the arms, wrists and hands.

Take rest breaks. Never underestimate the potential consequences of fatigue to yourself, your passengers and other drivers. or injury.
