Everybody has to eat! And if you’re going to
eat, you may as well eat something local and
great! The Food Committee of 2017 Farm Tech-
nology Days has been working behind the scenes
to organize all aspects of delivering a first rate
menu at the event. Given the sheer quantity of
food we expect to sell, we are very excited to
showcase some local food producers to represent a
sampling of all the great food we have to offer in
Kewaunee County.
Local Menu Items
Burgers – Beef is donated by Ebert Enterprises
for all the burgers – 12-15 steers that they raised
Brats – Konop’s Meat Market in Stangelville
Wieners – Salmon Meats in Luxemburg
Savory Chicken Wrap - Dried Cherries from
Weinke’s Market in Algoma
Salmon Fish Spread with Crackers – LaFond’s
Fish Market in Kewaunee
Cheese Curds & String Cheese – Renard’s
Cheese in Algoma
Fresh Baked Kolaches - Ag Heritage Farm in
Kewaunee
Nonprofit Groups Benefitting from
Food Tent Sales
Over 650 volunteers from nonprofit
organizations will be working at the food tents.
Profits from the sales of food are distributed to
the nonprofit organizations at the end of the
show. The amount is based on the total number
of hours their volunteers worked. Below is a list
of nonprofits that are represented at 2017 Farm
Technology Days.
Knights of Columbus
Kewaunee Artisan Center
Kewaunee Food Pantry
Denmark Future Farmers of America
Kewaunee Future Business Leaders of America
Kewaunee High School
Kewaunee County 4-H

Kewaunee County Farm Technology
Days is serious about food safety! Our
goal is to keep everyone healthy! Each
and every volunteer is required to attend
a food safety training. Here are just a few
things they will learn!
Personal Hygiene is the first line of
defense. Do not come to work sick.
Come to work neat and clean with
hair restraints. Wash hands before
work, before putting on gloves, or
when returning to work for any rea-
son. Workers must wear gloves if they
are handling food.
Temperature Control is critical. Hot
foods must be kept above 135
degrees. Cold food must be kept be-
low 41 degrees. Thermometers must
be used to test temperatures hourly.
Sanitation and Cleaning. Volunteers
will learn how to make and maintain a
sanitizing solution. One capful of
bleach + a gallon water = 100 PPM,
and that should be tested with test
strip. Wiping cloths should be stored
in the solution.
Food Safety is #1
Local Government Essentials
Parliamentary Procedure Basics, Tuesday, July 25 10:30am - 12:00 noon
This program will provide a basic comprehension of the rules local government
officials traditionally use in the conduct of meetings. Procedural issues such as what can
be done in the absence of a quorum, how a decision can be reconsidered, and common
misconceptions will be addressed.
Presented by Larry Larmer, Outreach Specialist and Professor Emeritus

Local Government programs are moderated by UW-Extension’s Local Government
Center staff.
Thank you to the FTD Food Committee Volunteers!
Over the past two years a group of volunteers have been diligently coordinating all aspects of the
food service. They have selected and trained nonprofit volunteers to provide food and beverage at the
show, selected the menu, sourced the food, and organized and coordinated six food tents, four beverage
tents and two ice cream tents! We extend a sincere thank you to their hard work and dedication!

Association for Home and Community Education
Notes From The HCE Co-Presidents
“A Reflection of You” was
the theme of the 65th Spring
Banquet, on May 2, at the
Rendezvous. We had a tasty
chicken dinner, with all the
trimmings and pies. We enjoyed
Barb Engelbert Chisholm’s
portrayal of her great-
grandmother in attire and story as
she shared memories of the
Peshtigo Fire, Oct. 8, 1871.
The Kewaunee County
Wisconsin Bookworms
conducted the bake-less bake
sale. Thank you to all who
contributed again to make this
successful.
Two HCE scholarship awards
were presented to the
granddaughters of our members
Joan Karl and Anita Schuller.
The Barb Hartjes Memorial
Scholarship was presented to
Mitch Kudick. Barb was a
member of HCE.
The Outstanding HCE
member award was presented to
Jan Tess. She is our newly
elected co-president, and was
presented the award by Anita
Schuller, our other newly elected
co-president.
Our annual HCE trip took us
to the New Glarus area this year.
We are looking forward to Music
in the Park on July 9, enjoying
delicious pies made by our
members and the fantastic show
of “Let Me Be Frank”. July 29,
we will again make delicious pies
for the Pig Roast, served down by
the marina in Kewaunee.
HCE will be promoted in an
educational booth at Farm
Technology Days, July 11-13, in
the Family Living Tent,
co-chaired by Judy & Mari. Stop
at our booth, and pick-up your
souvenir bookmark, made by our
members. While in the tent, visit
the host family display, featuring
the quilt depicting the life of the
Ebert Family. Kewaunee County
HCE helped make this quilt a
reality.
Our Nicaragua Sewing
supply collection dated July 22,
has been postponed until further
notice, because the warehouse in
Stevens Point is full. Watch for
further notice for a rescheduled
date.
Check with Robin Nelson
255-1357 to confirm dates and
times for biking and kayaking in
July and August. We look
forward to seeing all club
presidents August 8, at the
executive board meeting, and all
our members at the August 21
Fall FunFest at the Franklin
Town Hall. As usual, this a
potluck and Mari is looking
forward to grazing on all the
delightful varieties of food! By
August 14, sign up to attend the
Mason Jar Craft program on
August 28.
As we are writing this letter,
Judy & Mari are enjoying a
vacation with our husbands in
Branson, MO. We’ve seen some
great shows, stayed up late
playing games, had giggle
sessions, and LOTS of
food. Now, BACK TO FUN!!!
Our HCE newsletter is done!

School is Out for Summer! Is Your Child Ready to Stay
Home Alone?
Like many parents, you might be trying to decide if it is safe to
leave your school-age child home alone during the summer break.
Your child might be ready to stay home alone if they:
Indicate a desire and willingness to stay alone
Accepts responsibility and is able to make decisions inde-
pendently
Shows an awareness of what others need
For many children, these abilities appear between 9 and 12 years
of age. UW-Extension offers a free on-line class called Home
Alone. The class was developed to help you prepare your child
for self-care. Take the class together with your child and gain
confidence that they are ready to stay home alone.

Kewaunee County Resources for Families and Communities
A Resource Sharing event was held on
June 5, 2017 at the Kewaunee County
Administration Center. The event provided an
opportunity for community service providers to
share information about the resources and
services available to assist Kewaunee County
adults, children and families.
The Resource Sharing event brought
together representatives of the agencies and
organizations in a face-to-face format which
allowed many of them to meet in person for the
first time. More than half of the agencies that
provide assistance to Kewaunee County
residents are headquartered in surrounding
counties and do not have an office location in
Kewaunee County.
Creating awareness of resources and
sharing information with services providers is
important because informed providers can help
connect families with resources that they might
not otherwise find on their own. Job loss,
underemployment, family changes, and living
on a fixed income are just some of the reasons
that families might benefit from community
assistance programs like the ones shared at the
Resource Sharing event.
A list of the agencies and program
information shared included:
Aging and Disabilities Resource Center
(ADRC) of the Lakeshore
Algoma Housing Authority
Atrium Post Acute Care
Bellin Health
Birth to 3
Brown County Human Services
Brown County Planning Commission
