Cadott school graduation
The story of life has yet to be writtenBy Kayla Peche
Weve come a long way from where we began/Oh, Ill tellyou all about it when I see you again.
The Cadott Class of 2015 played those words by Wiz
Khalifa, as they said their goodbye to high school and hello
to their future at the May 22 commencement ceremony.
During the song, family, friends, teachers and community
members watched pictures of graduating students fade from
babies to their senior photos.
Browsing through the seniors section of the Cadott year-
book, a person will see more pictures of the Class of 2015,
and with those pictures are memories. Memories shared be-
tween 45 students during their six years together; each stu-
dent noted with a way they will be remembered by the class.
Sam Jackson and Dylin Rose with best laugh, while
best hair went to Joe Carrell and Savannah Gruber. Ben
Kyes and Austin Najbrt were voted the loudest, and Keely
Verbracken and Samuel Ellenbecker were labeled most
artistic.
In his valedictorian speech, Luke Bell spoke on how
much each classmate, teacher, family member and the com-
munity impacted his time in Cadott.
I think Ican confidently speak for all of us in saying that
our experience at Cadott has ultimately been a positive
one, Bell said. But this is only the beginning of our lives,
a prologue to the story of our lives which is yet to be writ-
ten.
As Jr./Sr. high principal Matthew McDonough said in his
speech, it is time for the students to move on to the next
step in their lives.
Make it a great life or not, McDonough said. The
Lake Holcombe Town BoardAuthority questioned on vicious dogs
By Monique Westaby
Vicious dogs in the community was the topic of conversation at the regular Lake Hol-
combe Town Board meeting May 14. Resident Mischelle Hattamer brought up the topic,
after being told Chippewa County couldnt do anything about a dog attack that happened
to a middle-schooler on their way to class a few months ago.
Is there anything in place for vicious dogs in our community? asked Hattamer. We
have a dog in our community, in town, that has gone after three people; drew blood on one
kid he had to go to the hospital.
Hattamer said the dog, which is housed in the apartments across from the town hall, is
restrained but gets loose. The dog catcher has been called numerous times, as well as the
police.
Were just concerned, Hattamer said to the board. The last attack that drew the blood,
had it been a smaller child, the kid would probably have been ripped to shredsif it gets
ahold of a child its going to kill them.
Beau Bowlin, town chairman, said the town cant do anything to handle the situation.
The council doesnt have any authority to do anything to that dogthe sheriffs department
decides when something is dangerous to the public.
No, said Hattamer. They said they dont have the authority to do itif we lived in
Chippewa, the second time this happened the dog would have been euthanized. And its
not the dogs fault; its really not.
Bowlin says the only authority the town has is to catch stray dogs and have them im-
pounded.
Lake Holcombe School BoardKnights supporters may need to add golf to schedule
By Ginna Young
Knights fans may have a new team to root for if plans are
followed through for a co-oped golf team between Cornell
and Lake Holcombe. The possibility of a shared golf team
was discussed at the Lake Holcombe School Board meeting
May 18.
We had some interest in starting the golf program with
Cornell, said Cindy Miller, Lake Holcombe School District
athletic director. So we sent surveys to the kids, and we have
some kids who definitely said they would be on the team. So
we went ahead and got the paperwork from the WIAA.
Miller said the first step of the process begins by filling
out an application, which is then signed by each districts ad-
ministrators and school board, and the conference commis-
sioner. If the WIAA approves the application, the two schools
will discuss how they want to proceed.
It would be a spring sport, said Miller. We would do
both boys and girls together. You have to have at least five
people on the team, so it depends on how many people are
going to be on the team, whether you need one coach or two.
Cornell would be the host team for the golf program, which

If the sheriff cant do anything, I dont see where we
have any authority to do that, said Bowlin. The council
doesnt have any authority to do anything to that dog.
Randy Hattamer, who owns a business near where the dog
is housed, said the landlord said his hands were washed once
the dog went onto the street and attacked there.
So hes not responsible either, said M. Hattamer.
If he grabs one of these little three or four-year-old kids,
said R. Hattamer, instead of biting them in the hip, hes
going to bite them in the face. Theres going to be a prob-
lem.
About the only thing we can do as a council is to catch
the dog when hes out on the loose, said Bowlin. And then
have it impounded.
Bowlin said he will also check with the constable, and

OPINIONThursday, May 28, 2015COURIER SENTINELPage 2By Monique Westaby
Managing Editor
Nobody likes change.
Eventually the idea of
something different sets in
as OK, but that initial shift
to the unknown is scarier
than a monster under your
bed. It seems like you cant move forward,
and you just want things back how they
were.
But lives are full of change, good and bad.
Some changes are preventable, while others
come on like a flash flood. Just when you
think your ducks are all in a row, one decides
to take flight and sails off into the sunset,
never to return.
Last week, just when the ducks in my life
started to line up, the ducks in another life
broke their form, changing things forever. In
their wake, not just one life was changed, but
many lives, and in turn, everything as we
knew it flew out the window.
Unexpectedly, a co-worker was hospital-
ized after believing to have had a stroke in
the early morning hours before work. She
was taken to the hospital, where it was con-
firmed that indeed, a stroke was the culprit.
While she is still recovering at the hospital,
and to my understanding progressing every
day, office life went from normal (well, as
normal as May the 4th Be With You parties
and Corner Fest can be) to crazy.
Not only were we worried about our fel-
low co-worker and friend, as well as her fam-
ily, but we now had one less person in an
already tight employee situation. We were all
forced to pick up our game and step up to the
challenge of something new. I put up a strong
wall, but my mind was screaming, you cantdo this right now.
Extra work was basically a given for
everyone, and a large chunk of that work was
placed on my desk. (If you arent aware, Im
when I heard that phrase, and as much as I
dont want to admit it, Ive used it on more
than one occasion myself.
Cant means you dont want to. It doesnt
get much more truthful than that.
Just like God wont give us situations we
cant overcome with help, telling ourselves
we cant is just another way of giving up
without trying. And like the rest of my fam-
ily, Im stubborn as a mule, so giving up isnt
an option, as easy as it sounds.
So, as office life continues to change and
morph into what it will now be, I look at the
future with a glimmer of hope. It will never
be what it was, but maybe this new situation
will be OK in time.
We continue to pray for a speedy recovery
for our co-worker, and we continue to be op-
timistic that she will return and all will be the
same, but in truth, I know things will never
be what they were; and Im learning to be
OK with that.
Change isnt always bad. Its not always
easy to accept, and it might not always be for
the better, but its tolerable. We might think
we cant go on, and that all hope is lost, but
the reality is, we can; we just have to try.
By Kayla Peche
Laying by a pool from
early morning until
watching a beautiful sun-
set right on the beach
with the hot, white sand
beneath your toes.
Sounds like paradise
right?
Well, that was my vacation for about
seven days. Seven days away from the real
world. Seven days away from answering e-
mails, taking photos and writing stories.
about 30 weeks pregnant, which puts me at
the large-and-in-charge state, but also the
easily overwhelmed break down into tears
state.) I took a deep breath and let the reality
sink in. I could do this. I could handle the
work load and be OK with it, couldnt I?
The first day was scary.
Between the extra work for me, the extra
work placed on my co-workers, and the
phone ringing off the hook, I tried to keep my
calm and be a pillar for anyone who needed
it. By day two, our publisher came over to re-
lieve part of our load. We could handle the
little stuff, but the computer and accounting
work was a little out of our league. By the
end of the day, I was grateful to get home
(about 9:30 p.m.) and flopped on the couch
feeling defeated.
Week one ended and although stress was
high, we all made it out alive and stayed, for
the most part, on each others good sides. A
few pregnancy hormone driven tears were
shed, but those would have happened
whether I was stressed, or dropped my salad
(which did happen and did turn on the water-
works during my second trimester).
As week two starts, I think about how of-
fice life has changed.
Although the last few weeks were crazy
enough, and add growing a human to that
mix, I had thought my life was finally com-
ing to some sort of order again. I was finally
feeling like I could manage the stress, was
getting caught up, and would finally have
time to work on welcoming a child to the
world. But God handed all of us a curve ball
that early morning.
For my co-worker and her family, life will
never be the same. For the rest of us, this
major event will be something we too have
to overcome; a much less serious, but still
life-changing situation.
But God doesnt give us situations we
cant handle. He doesnt put obstacles in our
way that we cant overcome. Its not easy to
handle change, but with a little help, we can
make it through all of lifes trials, even when
we think we cant.
Last week, after a few days of trying to do
my work and pick up the extra, I thought I
couldnt anymore.
And then, I remembered a phrase from my
childhood cant means you dont want to.
You will never know how annoyed I got
If you cant accept change then youre not trying hard enough
Why everyone should go on vacationSeven days away.
I cant express enough thanks to my mom
for inviting me to take the trip, and my
Courier Sentinel co-workers for picking upthe slack while I was gone.
It was the perfect way to take a break
from all the stresses in life, all-the-while de-
veloping a terrific tan.
But the beach might not be where your
paradise is. Maybe you would rather travel
to a foreign country, spend time in the
snowy mountains, or maybe just spend a
few days on your couch. Whatever your
choice may be, everyone needs a little va-
cation.
Iused to think my weekends were mini
vacations away from the work week, but
most of the time, people are still working on
the weekends. Whether answering e-mails,
making phone calls, or actually spending
your time at work, weekends are more like
work-never-ends in reality.
Some people are workaholics and enjoy
being at work all the time. I know my dad
is constantly working weekends, and the
only time he isnt working is when he is
sleeping. But even he takes time out of his
busy business to do something for himself,
like hunting trips or motorcycle rides.
He is using that hard earned money to-
ward enjoyable, memorable moments.
According to a report by the U.S. Travel
Association, 41 percent of American work-
ers let paid vacation days go to waste. On
average, it was reported that 3.2 vacation
days expire.
Thats three days camping with your fam-
ily, three days traveling to Chicago to see
Cloud Gate (aka The Bean), three days driv-
ing to Minnesota to go to the science mu-
seum. Three days you could have been paid
to sit on your couch and watch soap operas,
if you really wanted to.
The possibilities are endless, but other
than because you have days, so you should
take them, it is actually beneficial to your
work, health and life to take a vacation.
The Huffington Post reports in the article,
Scientific Proof That You Need a VacationRight Now that studies show when the brainis relaxed, it is better focused.
The article writes:Daniel J. Levitin, thedirector of the Laboratory for Music, Cog-nition and Expertise at McGill University,told the New York Times that giving ourbrains time to wind down and think aboutnothing at all can provide our moments ofgreatest creativity and insight.
Giving yourself a break from the stresses
of work can actually make you better at
your job. Even if you think your job isnt
that strenuous, no matter the amount of
work you do, it is always better to take a
break every once in a while.
The Huffington Post article goes on tostate that taking short vacations more fre-
quently increases productivity, good health
and helps you become a more well-rounded
person.
All medical and psychological reasons
aside, during my vacation, I realized all the
people Imissed during my vacation. It was
amazing to spend time with my mom, aunt
and cousin, but there were other people I
missed seeing.
I also missed having alone time. I was
constantly near my family members, but I
am used to being bored at home. I never
thought I would miss that, but it is good to
reflect and enjoy your own company some-
times.
The biggest thing I realized is how much
Ienjoy my job. I will complain about things
Ihave to do day in and day out, but without
it, there is a part of me missing.
Without a vacation, I would have never
realized that. You really dont appreciate
something until it is gone.
Vacation is enjoyed because it is a rare oc-
casion, but rare doesnt mean it should
never happen.
Life is too short to not enjoy it.
Take a vacation or, at least, do something
to make yourself happy. Take pleasure in
your life because you never know the day
when you wont get a chance to.

State Highway 27 closed
after two vehicle collisionThe Cadott Fire Department and Cornell Ambulance re-
sponded to a two vehicle crash on State Highway 27, near
120th Avenue, late Thursday morning, May 21.
Lt. Mitch Gibson, with the Chippewa County Sheriffs Of-
fice, said both vehicles, an Xcel Energy 3/4 ton truck and a
smaller spray fertilizer truck, were traveling north when the
collision happened.
The lead unit (Xcel truck), had slowed for a farm imple-
ment which was also north bound, says Gibson in a release
from the department. The following unit (fertilizer truck)
failed to react and struck the rear of the lead unit (Xcel
truck).
Because of the collision, the fertilizer truck then over-
turned, and began leaking liquid lawn fertilizer, which kept
the highway closed nearly three hours for clean-up, according
to the release.
Gibson said the farm implement vehicle was not hit, and
the driver of the fertilizer truck was taken to a local hospital
for unknown injuries. As of deadline, there was no update on
the drivers condition.
Cheri and Airiana Bremness
Bremness overcomes
mountain to graduateThe phone wasnt ringing for Cheri Bremness. After a six-
month job search, she landed one interview because of a con-
nection her mother made. That can happen when your resume
says you havent been working for five years.
But Cheri says she expects things to turn around after grad-
uating from CVTCs Information Technology-Network Spe-
cialist program May 8.
While CVTC graduate 674 individuals in 47 programs,
many overcame obstacles while seeking their degrees, but for
Bremness the obstacle was more like a mountain. A 2005
Cadott High School graduate, Bremness worked in manufac-
turing after high school and at age 20 and single, her daughter,
Airiana Bremness, was born by emergency C-section.
They didnt let me see her right away, Cheri said. There
were complications.
Airiana had multiple developmental problems and was hos-
pitalized for six months after birth, getting transferred between
Marshfield, Milwaukee and Rochester Minn.
Every week we had to travel to see different doctors, Cheri
said. I was not able to work because of all the surgeries.
Now, Cheri says her daughter is doing amazing. When you
look at her, you wouldnt think anything was wrong with her.
She goes to Cadott Elementary, and she loves school.
When Airiana was five, Cheri started looking for work but
made no headway, which is when she decided to return to
school. Cheri says she chose the IT-Network Specialist pro-
gram because it sounded interesting.
When I first started, I was looking around saying I dont
contact the county to see why they cant do more.
On the regular agenda, the board looked into a possible
camping ordinance that would limit campgrounds from
being placed in the Town of Lake Holcombe. The ordinance
was brought up at the annual meeting, and placed on the
monthly agenda for discussion.
I kind of went through the ordinance, and Im not sure
what we are looking for with the ordinance on campgrounds
and why,said Bowlin. I cant see any large properties here
around the lake where anybody is going to put any camp-
grounds on.
Sanitary Board president Roger Baldwin said a proposal
by the county to possibly sell off 80 acres on the north side
of Pine Lake is what is causing concern among residents.
The only people it could be attractive to is probably a
logger orcampsites are up and coming, said Baldwin. I
know there was some concern in residents that they went to
the county meetings and they would really not like to see a
campground in that 80 acres.
Bowlin says with the comprehensive planning agreement,
which the town opted out of during two annual meetings,
control of planning on the lake was given to the county.
The county is the one who controls that now, said
Bowlin. We dont have the say-so to whats going to be
doneso really its a county deal.
I want to know why we cant pass an ordinance, said a
resident.
Ill have to check with zoning to see if we have the au-
thority to do so for this type of thing, said Bowlin. Even
if we put an ordinance through, Im pretty sure in the ordi-
nance we would have to grandfather people in. Whatever is
there is there.
Well I think that is what we want, said Bruce Jones,
Lake Holcombe roadman, an ordinance that there are no
more campgrounds. Thats all we want.
Anneleise Willmarth, town clerk, read a portion of the
proposed ordinance, and said to appeal to everyone, perhaps
the town could reword to eliminate no more camp-
grounds, to requiring board approval before putting in a
campground.
Perhaps what we should do isfollow up with the county
on what we are able to do with the zoning, and try to get that
information for the next meeting, said Willmarth.
Ill do that, said Bowlin. Ill see what happens since
we dont have comprehensive planning; what authority we
havewell have the ordinance rewritten and make sure its
all legal, and then have public hearings on itits not going
to happen tomorrow, thats for sure.
would be part of the East Lakeland Conference. Miller says
students would likely be responsible for their own golf clubs,
with the school providing bags with the Knights logo.
I like the idea, said Corey Grape, school board president.
Board members then approved the go ahead to explore co-
oping.
The board also discussed changing the one-year mentoring
program the school has in place, to a three-year program.
The first year a teacher is hereeverything happens once,
and you almost have to experience the entire year once to
kind of get a feel of whats going on, said principal Mark
Porter. And I think that during that first year it kind of helps
navigate where the landmines are. Having that person there
afterward can add quite a bit.
Brian Guthman, science and ag teacher, said he agreed that
having a mentor for more than one year was beneficial.
I think theres a big learning curve especially the first
year that you have to have some help to get through it,
said Guthman.
Since it was the first reading of the policy, the board put
the matter on the back burner for the moment.
On other agenda, the board approved the addition of fifth-
grade students to the middle school cross country team. To
be eligible for the roster, students will be required to have
good behavioral standing, must maintain a C average in all
classes, have no missing assignments, and must be recom-
mended by a coach and fifth-grade teacher.
We thought, if they want to participate, thats fine, but
were going to make the rules, said Miller.
During the meeting, superintendent Jeff Mastin thanked
Sauerwein Masonry for their donation of the school com-
mons concession countertops, valued at $1,200. Mastin also
reported an anonymous donor gifted the school district with
$2,000.
The board also approved the hire of Beth Meddaugh as
head volleyball coach, with an assistant volleyball coach to
be named later; Daren Edwards as co-middle school girls bas-
ketball coach; Barb VanDoorn to a communications director
additive position; and Amanda Ruhoff as the new social stud-
ies teacher.

Plan for summers bounty
Home canned spaghetti sauce full of the flavor of garden-
fresh tomatoes, or strawberry jam bursting with fruit at the
peak of ripeness with the proper equipment and up-to-date
recipes, these and other family favorites can safely be canned
at home.
Preserving food from your garden or orchard can be a
good way to combat the rising prices of food at the grocery,
says Barbara Ingham, UW-Extension food scientist. But be
sure to follow research-tested recipes for safe, high quality
food that your family will enjoy.
Recipes that are not precise (mentioning a pinch of this in-
gredient or a pinch of that ingredient), recipes that are not
tested in a laboratory, or recipes that contain out-dated or in-
accurate canning information, can result in products that may
be unsafe to consume.
Ingham offers three general guidelines for safe food preser-
vation:
Inspect and repair any food preservation equipment at the
beginning of the season.
Have dial-gauge pressure canners tested for accuracy.
Always follow an up-to-date tested recipe from a reliable
source.
Food safety is, and should be, a primary concern when
home canning any type of food, from pickles to meat, said
Mary Geissler, Chippewa County.
Visit foodsafety.wisc.edu for more information.

Holcombe senior meeting
The Holcombe Senior Citizen Club invited veterans of the
Armed Services to their meeting May 13, at the Methodist
Church in Holcombe.
Twenty-five veterans and their families attended. Follow-
ing a meal, veterans shared their thoughts and experiences
with the group.
Doc Dougherty shared his experience on an Honor Flight
to Washington, D.C. He had just returned, and encouraged
all the vets to go on the trip. Dougherty said they start with
the oldest war vets, then move up the scale until they fill the
flight.
Others stood up and told their rank and job, and their ex-
perience with the service.
Veterans attending included Joe Rosenberg, David Stau-
dacher, Carol Bell, Bob Gamache, Roger Garm, Dorothy
Liefeln, Roxanne Kane, Mike Grosvold, Jim Trottier and
Ernest Hetke.
Large volumes collected
during clean sweep event
Because Chippewa County residents again had the chance
to dispose of their recyclables properly this year, many par-
ticipated in the spring event that produced an extremely large
volume of materials at the Northern Wisconsin State Fair-
grounds.
Among the items collected were 317 appliances; 50,948
pounds of electronics; 21,329 pounds of household hazardous
waste; 10,420 pounds of scrap metal; 113 mattresses and box
springs; 1,759 pounds of small business hazardous waste; and
55 fluorescent bulbs.

Adrian says they had an excellent turnout, serving
388 quarters of chicken. (To the right) Friends and
classmates of Cornell High School re-convened for
a get-together at the Cornell Legions chicken din-

they get together three or four

support a good cause, and be-
cause the chicken is excel-
lent. Clockwise, from the left,

Cadott school graduation - continued from frontchoice is yours.
Peter Schroeder, chosen instructor to address the gradu-
ating class, advised the students to make a difference with
their life.
It doesnt matter how big of a difference you make,
Schroeder said. You just have to make one.
Quinn Hartzell, salutatorian, spoke to his classmates, or
as he put it, future creators. He encouraged them to push
the boundaries of their thoughts to new heights.
Creation matters to me, Hartzell said, for without it,
life would be an awful bore. Creativity allows us to break
from a cycle of stagnation and progress further.
Each student walked across the stage that evening, receiv-
ing their diploma, handshakes and hugs. With each name
called, future plans were announced some were headed
straight for work, others traveling for college, and some un-
decided with a world of possibilities. Schroeder says the seniors finally get an answer to the
age-old question students ask teachers: When am Ieven
going to use this again in real life?
He replied: Well, youre about to find out.

Second Angel Wings
held in memory of Ski
By Monique Westaby
In case I die due to cancer, I am writing this to all those Ilove. My journey through life has been long and difficult, butalso wonderful at the same time. I ask one thing of my fam-ilyI would like a golf memorial to be held in my honor, an-nually, at Twin Oaks. If I were able to give back even afterIm gone, that would mean a lot to me.
Nathan Ski Zamsky, a 2004 Lake Holcombe High
School graduate, wrote those words before losing his battle
with brain cancer in 2012.
The best way to describe Nathan is that he was not bash-
ful, said Matt Alix, a friend and classmate of Nathan. He
was always down to have fun and loved making people laugh.
Hed do anything to help out friends and he had a kind heart.
Nathans family is carrying out his kind heart and wish
with the second annual Angel Wings of Love for Brains fund-
raiser. Last years event raised over $10,000, with money
going exactly where the family promised to local brain
tumor patients.
That man was something else, said Karen LeBotte, one
of the beneficiaries of Angel Wings efforts last year.
Funding also went to Mel Ravenscroft in Cornell, Marie
Valentine of Ladysmith, Kyanna Darnell of Altoona, Lakken
Burzynski of Stanley and Hayli Dennis in Oshkosh.
I can definitely see Nathan smiling and proud, knowing
that hes responsible for helping two ladies in the community
that he knew first hand, said Mandy Swanson, Nathans sis-
ter. With the money raised each year, we hope to continue
easing the financial burden that people feel when they go
through life changing experiences like this.
Angel Wings of Love is scheduled for Saturday, May 30,
with golf registration at 8:30 a.m. at Twin Oaks. The tourna-
ment will begin at 9 a.m., with the 5K run/walk registration
at 9:30 a.m. at the Lions Pavilion (Staudacher Field); raffle
tickets are also available at this time.
The kid friendly run/walk begins at 10 a.m., with lunch
(barbecue, pulled pork, calico beans, salad, dessert, coffee
and Kool-Aid) served at 11 a.m. in the pavilion.
The drawing will happen at 12:30 p.m., and features large
ticket items such as four tickets in the Legends Club Skybox
Lounge for the Brewers vs. Twins game, a Paul Molitor
signed bat, Callaway golf club sets, rocker recliner and a
patio set, to name a few. Gift certificates for businesses, as
well as gift baskets and other items will also be on raffle.
It will be a lot of fun, said LeAnn Zamsky, Nathans
mom. A lot of big raffle items and all for a good cause. It
makes us very proud to be able to help out; there are already
three people in mind who need help.
Picture boards will be on display, and a Farkle tournament
may happen in the pavilion, along with kids activities.
We have the Farkle cups, said LeAnn.
With estimates of 200-250 people attending last year,
LeAnn says it sounds like even more plan to come this year,
including the family of eight-year-old Kyanna.
I have to thank Nathans parents for making such a good
person, said Matt. For someone our age to say something
so selfless, it really sums up how Nathan was pure-
hearted.

Cadott Village BoardSpring inspections lead to clean-up directions
By Kayla Peche
During reports from committees at the May 18 regular
Cadott Village Board meeting, the Parks Committee dis-
cussed issues they have had with the yard waste site. Charles
Sedivy, board member, suggested installing a sign that gives
direction on what can be disposed of if no collection em-
ployee is available.
Even if someone sneaks inthats not supposed to be
there, Sedivy said, at least theyll know that you cant leave
bags there, or dump this there.
The yard waste site is used to dispose of leaves, twigs,
brush and unpainted wood. Randy Kuehni, board member,
says it will be open on a temporary basis without a collection
employee, unless there are issues. The committee will look
into a sign for better direction for the public.
The Health Committee also had a village inspection, and
Bart Chapek, board member, says the village looks pretty
good.
Anson Albarado, village president, asked about adding
hanging flower baskets on Main Street, or around the village
to beautify the community. Sedivy said he thought the
womens club used to do it years ago.
If we can get an organization or somebody to help out
with that, it would be good, Albarado said. We should look
into that.
Along with beautification of the village, the board reminds
the public to keep grass off the streets and, when mowing,
grass should be blown into the yard or swept up.
Residents are also reminded to keep house numbers visible
and near an entrance. Village clerk Sandy Buetow said fire
and ambulance departments are still struggling to find house-
holds because numbers are worn off, or not visible from the
road.
Also on the agenda, Albarado gave energy costs from
American Electric Power (AEP)with a contract extension to
2021. The price would be $48.75 per mega-watt.
If you look at the price, its the 2016-17 price, Albarado
said. So, its not going up. We are committed all the way to
2021. Iwould like to get requests from other companies, but
they cant do it that far out.
According to an e-mail Albarado received, the next AEP
meeting is scheduled for the fall. He suggests askings specific
questions about the costs at that time.
On other agenda, the board cancelled one of the stipula-
tions regarding previous zone change conditions at 531 N.
Main Street, where a planned salon and spa will be put in.
At the May 4 regular board meeting, a motion was made
to approve rezoning, on the condition that state approved
plans be similar to what was already presented, and if the
project doesnt proceed with building, the land site stays res-
idential and does not change.
After speaking with their village attorney, it was recom-
mended to rescind the motion that the zone will remain the
same if the business doesnt proceed.
If you make it a zone change, you do the zone change,
said Buetow, of what she was told by their attorney. If they
want to change it back, someone else goes in there, then they
can change it back.
The rescinding motion carried, approving the zone change
from residential to commercial with the condition that the
state approved plans are similar to the plans shown by the
owner.
As a reminder, the villages open book and board of review
is scheduled for June 3, with open book, from 3-5 p.m., and
board of review, from 5-7 p.m., at the Village Hall.

AREA NEWSThursday, May 28, 2015COURIER SENTINELPage 10Sequin Sisters goes to state tournament
Cadotts Destination ImagiNation team, Sequin Sisters,
traveled to state competition Saturday, April 18, at UW-
Stevens Point. The sisters took home a sixth place finish
out of 22 teams in their Instant Challenge category.
Coach Dawn Barone said she was very proud of the all-
girl team, and that they made a lot of growth through the
season as individuals and a team.
The Sequin Sisters were the second team added to the
Destination ImagiNation group this year, and consisted of
sixth-graders Meadow Barone, Grace Janicki, Madi Stai and
Grace Rogers; and seventh-graders Jasmine Horvat and
Tabitha Sikora.
First team members were fifth-graders Makenna Barone,
Carson Crandall, Alyssa Derks and Tad Weiss; and fourth-
graders Elly Eiler, Jayda Nesvacil and Brayden Sonnentag.
This team was managed by Kris Bejin.
Both groups began meeting on a weekly basis after school
in December, working on improvisation, team building, re-
search skills and practicing Instant Challenges.
Of the five choices for the second challenge, the Central
Challenge, Feary Tales from the fine arts category was cho-sen.
A regional tournament was held March 21, at Baldwin-
Woodville High School, and the Sequin Sisters earned the
right to attend the state tournament inApril.
While at state, 296 teams from more than 90 districts com-
peted in four levels Rising Star (grades K-2), Elementary
(grades 3-5), Middle Level (grades 6-8) and Secondary
(grades 9-12).
Points could be earned in both challenges, with the Central
Challenge worth 240 points, and the Instant Challenge worth
100 points.
For the Central Challenge, the team created a fairytale
type story centered around a character who had a phobia.
Members made a functional piece of art and exhibited an il-
lusion, all with an 8 minute completion time for the presen-
tation.
Students were sworn to secrecy about the Instant Chal-
lenge content, as it may be used at other tournaments this
spring.
Cadott fourth-grader Jayda Nesvacil applies make-
up to Elly Eiler before the regional Destination
ImagiNation tournament. The team performed
Feary Tales, made a functional piece of art and ex-hibited an illusion within an 8 minute time limit.

Regular season comes to close
By Kayla Peche
With the final two conference games of the
season, the Cadott Hornets Baseball team fell
to competition, first by only a few and then,
a complete shutout.
May 19 vs. Fall Creek
(L3-1, conference)
It was a pretty tough loss for us, said
Peter Devine, Cadott head coach.
Devine says not only was the May 19 game
close, but Fall Creeks three runs came in the
fifth inning, which shouldve been the end of
that inning.
The Hornets were up by one run until the
fifth when the Crickets scored three to take
the 3-1 win.
We actually had more hits than Fall Creek
(7-6), Devine said. But Ezra Michael (se-
nior) is the only player who had a base hit
with a runner in scoring position for us.
Junior Austin Goettl pitched all seven in-
nings, allowing no earned runs with six
strikeouts. Devine says Goettl was the high-
light of the game on the mound.
We just need a little more hitting, Devine
said. And we have to avoid the defensive
mistakes that cost us to help him out when
hes pitching so well for us.
May 21 vs. McDonell Central
(L 13-0, conference)
The Hornets couldnt make it home during
the May 21 game against McDonell, and only
earned one hit from senior Brett McChesney,
and two walks from junior Shawn Sedlacek.
Pretty much McDonell was hitting and we
werent, Devine said. We gave up too many
free runners with walks and hit batters, and
they got 13 hits on top of that.
McChesney says pitching was an issue for
Cadott during the final conference game, as
the Macks took the 13-0 win.
We walked a lot of people and four of
them got hit by pitches, McChesney added.
Devine says pitching started out OK, but
McDonell eventually read Michaels tech-
nique.
They were hitting a lot of hard ground
balls, Devine said. Nothing too deep, but a
lot of singles.
Cadott played Boyceville May 26, for their
last game of the regular season. The regional
game is scheduled for June 2.
Throwing the ball with intensity, junior Austin Goettl pitches another strikeout
for a May 19 game against Fall Creek. Peter Devine, Cadott head coach, says
Goettl hasnt given up any earned runs in the last few games hes pitched.

One inning can decide it all
By Kayla Peche
The Cornell-Lake Holcombe Knights
Baseball team finished the regular confer-
ence season this week, and John Lee,
Knights head coach, says each game came
down to one inning.
May 19 vs. Bruce (L 15-4, conference)
While in Bruce May 19, Cornell-Lake
Holcombe had a challenge against the Red
Raiders.
Bruce is always a tough game, said
Lee. We have to play hard all seven in-
nings to stay in the game.
The game was close at the end of the sec-
ond with the Red Raiders only up by three.
It was the fourth inning when things fell
apart for the Knights, as Bruce added seven
more runs.
We always seem to have one bad in-
ning, Lee said. And then
we cant catch up.
Cornell-Lake Holcombe
could only muster two more
runs, ending the game early
with Bruce on top, 15-4.
Leading hitters for the
Knights were sophomore
Matt Kostka, who went one
for two and scored twice
with one RBI, and his class-
mate, Jeremiah Reedy, who
went one for three, scoring
once. The team had six total
hits.
May 21 vs. Clear Lake
(W 18-8, conference)
The May 21 game against
Clear Lake was a bit differ
