THIS FRIDAY YOU ARE INVITED TO A

Mastricola new District SupervisorBarry Mastricola was sworn in as District 4 Supervisor by County Clerk Melanie Stake during the Feb. 17 Waushara County Board regular meeting.

County Board adds detective to DA’s OfficeThe Waushara County

Board voted unanimously to authorize the addition of a full-time District Attorney Investigator position during its Feb. 17 regular meeting.

The investigator will work directly with the District Attorney and Department of Human Services.

In October 2014, the board had approved the addition of a full time detective for the Sheriff’s Department. The Board’s Feb. 17 vote moves the new detective position from the Sheriff’s Department to the District Attorney’s Office.

In other business, the board unanimously:

•Approved a jail staffing agreement with Sheriff Jeffery Nett required by the Wisconsin

Department of Corrections to enable the county to maximize the use of the jail, which has a 127 bed capacity. The agreement did not increase the size of the jail’s staff.

•Confirmed County Board Chair Donna Kalata’s appointment of Barry Mastricola as District 4 Supervisor, filling the vacant seat of the late Joe Piechowski. Mastricola owns Country Inn Bar and Grill west of Berlin and is a Wautoma Area School District Board member.

•Approved replacement of doors at three Courthouse entrances, including the enclosure of the alcove to the South elevator entrance.

During public comments, Deb Willis, a representative for volunteerism-promoting

nonprofit organization We-Share-A-County, updated the Board regarding the anonymous donation of 1,000 state certified oak trees to be planted in Mt. Morris Hills Park.

Parks Department Super-intendent Scott Schuman, the Department of Natural Resources and Willis have been working to create a plan for organizing volunteers to plant the trees, she said.

The board also received annual reports from the Treasurer’s Office, Zoning/Land Conservation and Buildings and Grounds.

The next regular board meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 17 at the courthouse.

Urban and Houston take the plunge to benefit Dive TeamDressed in Hawaiian costumes Nathan Urban, Waupaca, and Billy Jack Houston, Wautoma, jumped into Big Silver Lake during the Wautoma Area Fire District Water Operations/Dive Team Polar Plunge held Feb. 22 at Silvercryst. The 2nd annual Polar Plunge raised $1,600 for the water operations team.

Redgranite board discusses sidewalk snow removal

During the Feb. 17 Redgranite Village Board regular meeting, board members discussed possible future changes in sidewalk snow removal by village residents and business owners.

Village President Jerry Sieg told the board that following snowstorms, some residents and businesses are not shoveling their sidewalks within 24 hours, which is the current ordinance requirement. Sieg suggested in the future businesses be required to shovel within 12 hours of the snowfall.

It was also suggested by board members that the charges for city snow shoveling be increased from the now $45 minimum; the Ordinance Committee will

review the current charges and bring proposals for changes to the board at a future meeting.

It was also pointed out that if a property owner is on vacation during winter months, it is their responsibility to make sure someone is providing snow-shoveling services for them in their absence.

In other business, the board approved:

•An updated 2015 wage and benefit schedule, which included a 2 percent-per-hour increase.

•Revisions to the Martenson & Eisele Sewer Rate Study—Volume Charge and Surcharges (tables 1 & 7). The 2015 rates remain the same as in 2014.

•An Inter-Municipal Agreement for the Redgranite

Area Fire District.•A quote from Green Lake

Area Tree Service for $4,300 for tree removal and stump grinding at the east and west end of the ballpark and on the corner of Pine and Water Streets.

•Payment of Davy Engineering invoice for services related to UV Disinfection System, for $1,658.53.

•An operator’s license for Kim C. Van Dellen, Sanickers.

•The transfer of a Class B alcohol license, for Lambeaul Lanes, from James Schafer (deceased) to Diane Schafer.

The next regular Redgranite Village Board meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. Tuesday, March 17 at the municipal building.

Dernbach retires after 25 years of service at Almond-Bancroft The Almond-Bancroft school board held a special meeting Feb. 16 at the Almond school. Board members approved the retirement of Lynne Dernbach, middle school and high school art teacher after 25 years of service. Cory Nagel’s resignation as middle school football coach was also approved by board members.

The board minutes from the Jan. 28 regular monthly meeting open and closed sessions and the minutes from the Feb. 11 special meeting

closed session were approved. Bonnie Warzynski spoke to board members about a recent budget and money saving collaborative meeting she attended in Rosholt. The next budget meeting will be held May 6 in Iola. Principal Jeff Rykal informed board members and all present during the meeting that the senior class trip to Myrtle Beach this spring had to be changed to a secondary location. The dates they had originally chosen were considered “family time” in Myrtle Beach and no hotel was willing to book rooms for

high school students. There will be a senior class trip, but the location is yet to be determined. Board members approved the cancelation of the Feb. 18 regular monthly meeting.

The FFA was granted permission by board members to attend two overnight events: the Wisconsin Rapids Farm Forum, Feb. 21-22 and the Eau Claire-Edge Leadership, March 20-21. The next regular monthly board meeting will be held March 8 at the Bancroft school.

Residents seek donations for family after fireA fire on Oakwood Circle, Town of Marion, destroyed a home on Feb. 20, and local residents are coming together seeking donations for the family, including clothing for children and adults. Any donations can be dropped off at the Neshkoro Farmers Exchange Bank, 846 N. Main Street, Neshkoro, or Little Sprouts Discovery Center, 406 Preston Lane, Redgranite.

We-Share-A-County, a status pending new nonprofit organization as of January 2015, is working to help “Heal the Hill” by planting 1,000 state certified oak trees at Mt. Morris Park. The trees were given by an anonymous donation. Garzino Gardens, Saxeville, is the underwriter for the project.

The organization is

working together with the Department of Natural Resources and the Waushara County Parks Department to plant the donated trees in April if weather permits. We-Share-A-County encourages service organizations as well as concerned citizens to volunteer take part in the planting.

We-Share-A-County is

dedicated to uniting citizens, organizations, ideas, and resources for the betterment of community.

RUBY A. BRAUNDec. 9, 1935-Feb. 19, 2015

Ruby A Braun, 79, Wautoma, formerly of Madison, went home to be with her LORD on February 19, 2015.

Born on Dec. 9, 1935, to Jehu and Beulah Channel, Ruby spent 12 of her first 16 years in an orphanage. Later, at the request of a brother-in-law, she began writing a soldier in Korea who wound up proposing before they had ever met. She married Walter C. Braun on July 17, 1954.

Ruby had many hobbies and talents, among them was singing, playing flute and giving great hugs. In recent times, she could be found on Tuesdays (along with Walt and friends) going to nursing homes and assisted living centers singing uplifting songs and hymns. When no longer able to play the flute, she donated it to the Wautoma High School band.

An avid league bowler most of her adult life, she was even known to beat Walt from time to time when they enjoyed their weekly fun matches. Ruby retired from the State of Wisconsin DNR after 22 years of work in Madison and Wautoma.

In the fall of 2011, she made a profession of faith in Christ and began a determined effort to read through the Bible, which she did twice,

despite eyesight problems.Ruby loved her life with

Walt, their home on the lake, God’s creation, especially hummingbirds, fishing, swimming, paddleboat rides, kids, grandkids and walks.

Recently, a stroke slowed her pace and dimmed her eye but could never dampen her spirit. Never one for self-pity, Ruby constantly saw the good in others and encouraged everyone to do the same.

She will be sorely missed by her husband, soul mate and life partner of 60 years: Walt; sons: Steve (Sheila) Braun, Mike (Brenda) Braun; and six “great” grand children. Ruby was preceded in death in 1972 by a third son: Alan.

A celebration of life will be held in Wautoma at a later date.

Dietary Cholesterol Revisited

Just recently it has been reported in the news that the people who make recommendations about what we eat may be changing their mind about the dangers of cholesterol in the diet.

The government agency known as the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee is considering removing the recommendation to limit cholesterol in the diet. They are not saying that cholesterol in the blood stream is not a risk factor for vascular disease, they are saying that the consumption of cholesterol in the diet may not affect the blood levels as much as was once thought.

In the 1960s researchers became more aware of the relationship between cholesterol levels in the blood and the risk of cholesterol deposits in the blood vessels that could lead to blockages. If the blockages occur in the blood vessels of the heart or brain this could cause a heart attack or a stroke. This led to the strategy of trying to lower the blood levels of cholesterol.

It seemed logical that more cholesterol in the diet would cause higher levels of cholesterol in the blood. So the recommendation to limit cholesterol to 300 mg daily was made (an egg has about 200 mg). However, studies suggest that there is not a clear correlation between dietary cholesterol and blood cholesterol levels.

It turns out that our bodies actually produce cholesterol. Cholesterol is an essential component of the cell membranes in our tissues. Also, we need cholesterol for production of hormones and vitamin D. The level of cholesterol in the blood stream may be more dependent on heredity, activity levels, and body fat than on dietary intake. This can explain why some people can eat a poor diet and have low cholesterol while someone who watches

their diet closely still has elevated cholesterol.

When the Atkins diet was more popular, I saw many patients who consumed higher levels of meat, cheese, eggs, and fat yet their total calorie consumption went down due to avoiding carbohydrates. I would commonly see that if their weight went down their cholesterol would also go down. So the blood cholesterol was more dependent on their weight than the amount of cholesterol in the diet.

Elevated blood cholesterol levels are still considered to be a risk factor for stroke and heart attack. The levels can be monitored. There is some debate about when and how often to screen cholesterol levels. It is generally accepted that men over 35 and women over 45 have a screening blood test. People between the age of 20 and 35 would be candidates for screening if they have risk factors.

The treatment of cholesterol as a risk factor depends on age, past medical history, whether diabetes is present, and the presence of other risk factors. Cholesterol levels can be lowered with vigorous exercise and a diet that promotes a healthy weight. Generally a healthy diet will be low in fried foods and fatty foods because they have a lot of calories. The recent recommendations suggest that cholesterol in the diet is not necessarily the problem. This is good news for people who enjoy eggs and for the egg farmers. When diet and exercise do not lower the cholesterol, there are effective medications.

The main risk factors for vascular diseases like strokes and heart attacks are smoking, high blood pressure, diabetes, and high blood cholesterol. Being physically active and maintaining a healthy weight does also reduce risk. In addition, a baby aspirin may be another effective risk reducer. Lowering your risk will help achieve the goal to stay healthy my friends.

COUNTY AG NEWSWith UW-Extension Ag AgentKen Williams

Dairy projects lower prices

Over the past year, dairy producers have been able to see near record milk prices. For the coming year milk prices are projected to continue to work their way lower. The Class III price February a year ago was $23.35. This year the February Class III price will be near $15.55 compared to $16.18 in January and $17.82 last December.

There is a lot of uncertainty as to how milk prices will end up for the rest of the year. A month ago there were predictions for the Class III price to fall to the low $14’s first quarter of the year and not reaching into the $16’s unil the last half of the year and averaging about $7 lower than last year.

Class III futures also showed this pattern, and today we have a world market. Currently there is a drought in New Zealand and New Zealand’s forecast for milk production is to be 3 percent lower in 2015. New Zealand is the single country leading exporter of dairy products. Also there is anticipation that Russia will lift its ban on dairy imports from the Economic Union (EU) by August and that China will resume imports later in the year.

Prices of whole milk powder, skim milk powder and butter have also strengthened on the Global Dairy Trade. But, it seems the impact of some of this would strengthen prices later in the year rather than for these near months.

There exists cumulative dairy stocks that need to be worked down before China will likely resume any significant imports.

A positive for 2015 milk prices to average higher that what was forecast earlier is the possibility of a smaller increase in this year’s milk production. Earlier USDA was forecasting 2015 milk production to increase 2.8 percent and that projection has now been reduced to 2.6 percent. Domestic sales will show growth led by a continued increase in cheese sales. But, exports are projected to be lower, particularly for butter and cheese. Nonfat dry milk/skim milk powder, dry whey, whey protein concentrates and lactose exports are expected to far better.

Lower milk prices could translate into a higher number of dairy cows being culled and being sent to market. If this happens this could put downward pressure on the beef market which has been at near record prices this past year.

For the consumer, this could result in a downward movement in the price for beef at the supermarket. The number of beef animals in the United States has dropped significantly over the past couple of years as a result of a continuing drought in the West and Southwest. Many beef producers marketed their beef cows as a result of feed shortage. When this happens it takes over two years for herds to be able to begin rebuilding.

Berlin resident feels it is time to retire Indian mascotTo the Editor:

The article in the Feb. 4 Waushara Argus reported on the news from Berlin updating readers on the mascot issue. In addition to the information in the article, I would like to add additional facts concerning the issue.

The survey that the district took on the issue with only 22 percent of the people who received a survey participating, showed that 78 percent of the residents in the district do not care if the mascot is changed.

With over 90 percent of the Berlin High School students replying they prefer to retain the present mascot, it shows the students in Berlin are oblivious to many of the following facts:

1) The elected officials of the Green Lake Inter-Tribal Council (all 11 of Wiscon-sin’s federally recognized tribes) on numerous occasions have unanimously requested schools to please find an alter-native logo or mascot.

2) The empirical (data based) research of Dr. Stepha-nie Fryberg, accepted by the

American Psychological As-sociation has confirmed these race-based mascots can harm all students. (This information can be found at indianmas-cots.com.)

3) The Wisconsin Su-perintendent of Public Instruc-tion has repeatedly confirmed support for the elimination of race-based nicknames and has requested schools with such nicknames to stop using them for over 20 years.

4) The Wisconsin In-terscholastic Athletic Asso-ciation (WIAA) has advised schools to stop using race-based mascots.

5) Since 1990, over 35 school districts in Wisconsin changed their mascot to hon-or these requests. Also Mar-quette University, Ripon Col-lege and LaCrosse University have changed their race-based mascots.

At the Jan. 15, 2014, school meeting, Bob Sillanpa and Larry Zarnott, two former administrators who served the district for over 60 years, advised the board that it was time to retire the “Indian” mascot. Those who support

the retention of the mascot say it is a way to honor Native Americans. Leadership among the tribes has told us for years they are not honored by these mascots.

If one could read all the editorials that have been written in support of the mascot you could see that all of them have one common denominator…that is they give no concern to how Native Americans feel about the issue, the very people whose names and images are being used. We are repeatedly told by the Native Americans, “We are people, not mascots.”

When Gov. Scott Walker signed the new mascot bill, in his letter to all tribal leaders he stated, “A better alternative is to educate people about how certain phrases and symbols that are used as nicknames and mascots are offensive to many of our fellow citizens.”

Until the education process takes place in Berlin they will continue “playing Indian” with no regard to the feelings of Native Americans.

Menominee tribal leader-ship recently announced they were considering raising marijuana on reservation land.

Wait, weren’t some of

these folk claiming that school teams named Indians, Chiefs, Warriors, Braves, etc. damaged their young people? But raising an illegal drug scientifically proven to damage the developing brain

of young people is okay, then? This is obvious a case

where you can only shake your head in wonder. /s/ David E. Gneiser, proud 1970 Berlin High School graduate

Waushara County Health News

By Waushara County Health Department

Measles outbreak

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) has reported an outbreak of measles in the United States currently involves 11 states. While no reported cases in Wisconsin, there has been some testing done.

Measles is the most deadly of all childhood rash/fever illnesses. It is very contagious and spreads so easily that people who are not immune will probably get it when they come in close contact to someone who is infected.

Measles is spread through the air by breathing, coughing, or sneezing. The droplets that are coughed or sneezed into the air can remain alive or active for up to two hours.

Symptoms appear one to two weeks after exposure and begin with a fever, runny nose, cough, loss of appetite, and red, watery eyes. These early symptoms are very similar to

other illnesses so it is possible for someone who has measles to pass it on before they know that they are infected. After the initial symptoms, a rash develops at the hairline and travels down the body in the next 5-6 days.

Measles can also cause diarrhea, ear infections, pneumonia, encephalitis (brain infection), seizures, and death. Complications are more common in children under the age of 5 and adults over the age of 20.

Since measles spreads very easily, it’s important to protect against infection by getting vaccinated. The best protection is two doses of the MMR vaccine.

As part of the childhood immunization program, the first does is required between 12-15 months and the second dose before entering school, at 4-6 years old. It is important to check your child’s

immunization records to make sure they have had two doses of MMR. If your child has had one or zero doses of MMR and is exposed to measles, they will have to stay home from school for two weeks, or more.

If you are an adult and have not been vaccinated with two doses of MMR, you can still get both doses. Or, if you have only had one dose, you can, and should, get the second dose as soon as possible.

Vaccines are available to prevent the measles through the Waushara County Health Department, and are free to people without health insurance.

If you have any questions or would like more information, please call 920-787-6590.

Please remember, the best way to protect yourself and your child is to ensure that everyone has had two doses of MMR.

Child Support Agency to post offenders online

In an effort to increase collection of child support, the Child Support Agency and Corporation Counsel will be sharing a list of individuals with warrants and highlighting the biggest offenders on their department pages on the Waushara County website, www.co.waushara.wi.us.

The Child Support Agency, Corporation Counsel and District Attorney spend numerous hours each year attempting to collect child support and hold payers responsible for their obligations.

As part of these efforts both civil and criminal enforcement actions are filed with the Circuit Court. If individuals do not appear in court or do not comply with certain orders made by the court, warrants are issued. These warrants can require a person be held until

he/she has a court appearance or he/she sit a certain amount of jail time or pay a specified amount of money.

In an effort to serve these warrants and increase child support collection, we will be posting a list of outstanding warrants, identifying whether they are civil or criminal and the amounts owed on both the Child Support Agency and the Corporation Counsel pages.

Warrants will be highlighted on a regular basis and we will be asking the public to provide any information that they may have on the location of the non-payer.

Failure to pay child support is not only detrimental to the child and the parent/guardian/custodial person supporting the child, it is also detrimental to the public in general.

When children are properly supported by both of their parents, reliance on public assistance such as

Food Share, Childcare and Badgercare (health insurance) decreases. Families become more self-sufficient, without the need for public assistance improving quality of life. Help us collect child support and you are helping to increase the standard of living for all of Waushara County.

Please check the Child Support or Corporation Counsel page for updated list of outstanding warrants. We will be updating this list on a monthly basis at minimum.

If you have information on the location of any of these individuals, please contact your local law enforcement agency, Waushara County Sheriff’s Department at 920-787-3321.

You may also provide tips to the Waushara County Child Support Agency at 920-787-0400 or by email: childsupport.courthouse@co.waushara.wi.us.

Winter pruningBy Chis Yesko

It’s cold outside and the ground is covered with snow. This may seem like the perfect time to relax by a roaring fire, but it’s also a great time to perform an important gardening chore: pruning.

Why is it so important? Pruning can help control the size of a plant, direct growth, influence flowering or fruiting, rejuvenate old, overgrown plants, or maintain plant health and appearance. For shrubs, pruning also encourages growth below the pruning cut. For trees, it can help prevent safety problems from broken, diseased, dead, or dying branches.

This is a good time to prune most deciduous trees because at this time of year you can see the overall branch structure easily, and insects and disease-causing organisms are not active. This is especially important for oak trees to help prevent spread of the fungus that causes oak wilt.

Elms should not be pruned in summer as the elm bark beetle is attracted to fresh cut wounds and can transfer Dutch elm disease. But don’t wait too long; in late winter, some trees may bleed or ooze sap excessively in the early spring.

Although the bleeding may be unsightly, it is perfectly natural and is a sign that the sap is flowing in late winter/early spring before bud break. It does not harm the tree. Some trees that bleed excessively are maple, willow, birch, beech, elm, and yellowwood.

Newly planted trees should not be pruned unless a branch is broken, diseased or dead. Young trees, established for 2-5 years, can be pruned to encourage a well-branched canopy, but be careful not to remove more than 1/3 of the total crown at one time. Older trees should not require pruning if properly trained when young, other than to remove damaged branches.

Summer-flowering shrubs should also be pruned when they are dormant. These shrubs produce flower buds on new growth in the spring, so if you postpone pruning until late spring or early summer, you will remove many flower buds. Some summer-flowering shrubs are hydrangeas, roses, Japanese spirea, rose-of-Sharon, potentilla, and smokebush.

Spring-flowering shrubs produce flower buds on one-year-old wood (wood produced the preceding summer), so it is often recommended to wait until they have flowered in spring, but before the next year’s flower buds are set, but it won’t harm the plant if

done prior to flowering. Spring flowering shrubs include lilacs, forsythia, viburnums, honeysuckle, mockorange, and weigela.

As with any other task, using the right tools produces superior results. The choice of tools to use depends on the size of the branches and the amount of pruning to be done.

Hand pruners are used to remove branches less than one inch in diameter; lopping shears should be used for branches up to 2 1/2 inches in diameter; pruning saws are used to cut branches too large to handle with lopping shears; pole pruners are used to cut branches beyond reach, and are basically lopping shears on a long handle. For branches larger than 4 inches in diameter, chain saws are preferred, but used by qualified individuals.

As always, all pruning implements should be kept clean and sharp to make pruning efficient and easy.

Wild Rose students to present ‘John Lennon and Me’The Wild Rose High School Drama Department, under the direction of Jim Dix is proud to present “John Lennon and Me,” a play written by Emmy award winning writer Cherie Bennet. This Comedy/Drama sets itself in the Heart House, a medical facility for teens who are suffering from various medical ailments. Hollywood-wannabe Star, the ultimate Beatles fan, has her path stymied by cystic fibrosis, and spends most of her time in the hospital, where she confronts fate with imagination by surrounding herself with MTV-inspired bodyguard Flunkies and ‘morphing’ her dreaded therapy nurse into “The Torturer.” Then, Star gets a new roommate, Courtney, who is Star’s opposite. Neither girl knows much about the other’s world, but eventually they come to understand each other, and ultimately, themselves. This is a powerful play about living life to the fullest. Performance dates are 7 p.m. March 12 and 13 in the Wild Rose High School Auditorium. Pictured are cast and set crew members: (back row): Jess Sullivan, Athena Wolfe, Faith Klick, Erica Carlson, Brody Calnin, Ari Dohr, Annie Dopp, Maya Dix and Jacob Lund; (front row): Mary Jenks, Brittany Guidry, Marissa Klein and Savannah Lennert.

County assistance needed for lake management plans

To improve efficiencies and to have greater impact, the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is looking more and more for grant projects to be a part of plan for the management of a lake.

The Waushara County Watershed Lakes Council asked the county if there is a possibility of reducing the cost of producing lake management plans. The county was able to go further and develop lake management plans at almost no cost to lake districts or associations beyond attendance at planning meetings and some distribution of information about the lake management plans.

The initial phases were to gather information about the conditions of the lakes. The results can be found on the Waushara County website under the zoning and land conservation, www.co.waushara.wi.us.

The lake management plans are being developed through a partnership of the Waushara County Land Conservation and Zoning Department, UW-Extension, UW-Stevens Point, and the DNR.

The lake management plan for Bughs Lake has been completed and approved by the DNR to have the necessary content.

The DNR looks to see that certain topics are addressed in the plan. The Lake District or association approves the details of the plan, which are developed through a series of four public meetings by lake property owners, residents, and users. In addition, surveys are distributed to all riparian and Lake District property owners.

Draft plans have been completed for Pleasant, Irogami, Deer, Spring Luc-erne, and Napowan Lakes and are being reviewed by the DNR or the lake association/district.

UW-Stevens Point staff is in the process of writing initial draft lake management plans for Hancock/Pine, Fish, Marl, Upper White, Pine, and Twin Lakes to be completed by their lake district/association. Beans, Little Silver, Big Hills, Kusel, Wilson, and Round Lakes are in the process of meeting to develop their lake management plans.

An additional 12 to 13 lakes will be developing lake management plans in the near future through this partnership. Draft plans and related information can be found on the Waushara County website under the zoning and land conservation, www.co.waushara.wi.us.

Riverview Elementary School Supplies Drive underwayBack to School Bash to receive donations

Having seen first-hand the success of the Riverview Elementary Toy Drive for the Community Christmas Project implemented by fellow student Cami Culver in December, Lyvia Weiss, 8, and Bailey Walejko, 7, went to Principal Ann Fajfer and their teacher, Marisa Steppke, with hopes of starting their own community project to help others.

“Lyvia and Bailey wanted to come up with something that they could do to get everybody energized in another way,” said Fajfer. “Cami Culver really did start a nice chain reaction with kids to think about things that they can do to help support the community.”

Knowing students are always in need of school supplies, Lyvia approached her friend Bailey with the idea to start a drive.

“I didn’t want to do the exact same thing as Cami. I wanted to do something different and I thought everybody has to bring in supplies when they come for school,” said Lyvia.

With Bailey on board and Steppke offering any assistance they may need, Lyvia and Bailey approached Fajfer to share their school supplies drive proposal.

During the initial meeting, Fajfer, Lyvia and Bailey discussed where the school supplies would be donated once they were collected.

“They came to me with this idea and I said, ‘Well,

what are we going to do with the supplies?’ Then we talked about the Back to School Bash project at the community level so that is what the supplies will be going to.”

When the girls first met with Fajfer, she was impressed the second graders already had a plan to launch the drive. The duo created posters to get the word out as well as flyers to be sent home with students to let parents know about the upcoming drive.

During the Feb. 20 Riverview Elementary Community Meeting, Lyvia and Bailey announced the school supplies drive to the student body.

“They launched the whole campaign to the whole school, the flyers were sent home, and we’ve posted it on our website and on our Facebook page,” said Fajfer.

Lyvia and Bailey are hoping not only Riverview students become involved with the drive, but community members donate as well.

The Riverview school supplies drive began Monday, Feb. 23 and will run through March 6. Lyvia and Bailey have the “goal to ensure that Wautoma students are equipped with the supplies they need to be successful.”

Upon completion of the drive, the school supplies will be stored at Riverview until the Back to School Bash is ready to accept donations.

Any school supplies items

will be accepted, including spiral notebooks, No. 2 pencils, glue (bottles and sticks), pink erasers, folders with pockets, markers, pens as well as new and gently-used backpacks. “Basically anything that can be used usefully at school,” explained Lyvia.

Bailey hopes that through the drive students at Riverview understand the importance

of giving back, and “helping others is the right treatment.”

Anyone interested in donating supplies may drop off donations at the Riverview Elementary School office, 525 S. Water Street, Wautoma.

For more information about the Riverview Elementary School Supplies Drive, call the school office at 920-787-4590.

Avada to offer free hearing screenings

Avada Hearing Center has introduced a new program offering free screenings to anyone age 55 and older.

“We might expect our 80-year old grandma to have some hearing loss, but no one should wait that long to have their hearing checked,” said Jason Steward, a licensed hearing instrument specialist at Avada.

Avad’s free hearing screening will show a baseline for patients and identify any possible early signs of hearing loss.

“If there are any medical red flags, such as ear pain, sudden drop in hearing, or excessive wax, I would refer to a physician,” said Steward.

The majority of hearing loss is a combination of age, heredity and noise trauma.

According to the Center for Hearing and Communication, nearly 38 million people are estimated to have hearing loss, but only 1.5 million are being treated.

Steward notes there are significant advances in hearing aid technology in recent years. “Technology is improving all the time. I have seen so many positive changes especially in comfort and clarity,” he said.

To contact Jason Steward, please call 920-787-5253. The Avada Hearing Center office is located at 705 W. Main Street, Wautoma.

Injuries sustained in house fire The Wautoma Fire District received a call at around 3 a.m. on Dec. 17 regarding a house fire at a home on 22nd Avenue off Highway 21, near the Waushara Community Church in Wautoma. Wautoma paged the Redgranite Fire Department and arrived on the scene first. The wife told emergency dispatchers that her husband was still inside the house. When the fire fighters arrived, they were able to climb through a window and into the bedroom where they found an adult male unconscious. The firefighters were

able to place the man on the stretcher and remove him from the home. “Dispatch did a good job with letting us know where the wife said he was,” said Wautoma Fire Chief Mark Putskey. “There was major smoke build. Our guys found him and took him down the hallway on a stretcher outside where an ambulance transported him.” Upon the Redgranite Fire Department’s arrival, the Wautoma fire fighters were released, as it was considered their fire. Redgranite Volunteer Fire Fighter Mike Getchius

stated that the fire started in the basement and traveled up the steps filling the house with smoke. A helicopter was called but was unable to fly due to weather conditions in the Fox Valley. The injured male was transferred to the hospital by ambulance for smoke inhalation. The Wautoma and Redgranite Fire Departments responded to the fire as well as the Waushara County EMS and Waushara County Sheriff Department. The cause of the fire is still under investigation.

Santa and Mrs. Claus visit Pine River LibraryPresley Olson and her mother, Jamie, paid a visit with Santa and Mrs. Claus at the Pine River Library of Leon and Saxeville on Dec. 12. The Friends of the Library sponsored the event providing homemade cookies, juice, a craft, and read stories.

Supervisors vote on Husbandry Act 377 that is best fit for countyFarm equipment will not require permits unless over axle Two residents spoke in support of a motion to approve Wisconsin Act 377 Option F, which abides by the Implementation of Husbandry (IoH) Act with no specific action taken, during the Waushara County Board of Supervisors Dec. 16 meeting held at the Waushara County Courthouse. CJ Young, a representative from the Town of Aurora, spoke to the supervisors about the need to take into consideration the costs of the permits and the time and money that will be spent on complying with the Act if Option E was approved. Option E states that all IoH and Agriculture Commercial Motor Vehicles (Ag CMVs) must apply for permits that exceed 23K/92K/Weight Table. Young felt that this option was not the way to go for our area. “As a farmer I feel we will end up writing a lot more permits and make more work for the town, farmers, and clerks,” said Young.

Steve Dirks, a farmer on the west side of the county, also spoke in support of Option F expressing his frustration with the amount of paperwork that some large farms will have to go through if the board approved Option E. “We need to look at the law and let someone else experiment,” said Dirks.

“Option F is the correct way for our county.” Waushara County High-way Commissioner Tom Dahlke stated to the board that Option F is a compromise and is the best fit for the county. The option states that there will not be a need to issue permits for Category B farm equipment and allows for the equipment to be over weight but not over axle. The Board of Supervisors approved 9-1 the motion for Option F, which abides by Act 377 with no specific action taken. The Wisconsin Act 377 approved in April by the state “sets specific weight and length limits on IoH and Ag CMV, with specific exemptions regarding Category B IoH. It allows local government officials to pass resolutions or ordinances regarding the maximum gross vehicle and axle weight limits for IoH and Ag CMVs operating upon roads under their jurisdiction.” According to the Department of Transportation and the Act 377, Category B IoH equipment includes: “self-propelled combine; self-propelled forage harvester; self-propelled fertilizer or pesticide application equip-ment but does not including manure application equipment; towed tillage, planting, and cultivation equipment and towing power unit; or another self-propelled vehicle that directly engages in harvesting

farm products, directly applies fertilizer, spray, or seeds but not manure, or distributes feed to livestock”. The board also approved: the minutes from the Nov. 12 monthly meeting and 2015 budget public hearing; 2015 Personnel Policy Changes; resolution acknowledging Randy Kalata’s service to and retirement from Waushara County; resolution acknowledging Lloyd Pon-tow’s service to and retirement from Waushara County; resolution authorizing application for Lakes Classification Phase III, Grant #3; resolution authorizing application for Lakes Classification Phase III, Grant #4; resolution authorizing cancellation of outstanding checks (county treasurer); resolution authorizing transfer of funds from general fund to Sheriff’s Department budget for Wonderware upgrade; appointment of Donna Goldsmith, Wautoma, to Board of Health (Jan. 1, 2015-Dec. 31, 2015); and appointment of Fred Kaiser, Wautoma, to Veterans Serv-ices Commission (Jan. 1, 2015-Dec. 31, 2017).

A special meeting of the Waushara County Board will be held on Dec. 30 at 7 p.m. in room 266 of the Waushara County Courthouse, Wautoma. The next regular meeting of the board will be held Jan. 20 at 7 p.m.

Shelly, Colin and Jon GneiserGneiser named publisher of Waushara Argus Jon Gneiser, former editor of News-Herald Media in Marshfield and Daily Tribune Media in Wisconsin Rapids, has been named publisher of the Waushara Argus. “It’s kind of a homecoming,” said Gneiser, who worked as a summer reporting intern at the Waushara Argus from 1998 to 2000. He graduated from Berlin High School and went on to earn a journalism degree from the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire.

Gneiser, 34, began his journalism career as a features

reporter with the News-Herald. He also worked as an education reporter, city government reporter, city editor, managing editor and general manager in Marshfield. Gneiser served as top editor of the Marshfield News-Herald for six years, and assumed the top editing role for Daily Tribune Media last year. In Marshfield, Gneiser’s community and professional activities included serving on the board of the Kiwanis Club, as a judge for the Crystal Apple Teacher Awards and as a member of the Wisconsin

Newspaper Association contest committee. “I look forward to continuing the Argus’ well established tradition of serving Waushara County with important local news and information,” said Gneiser, who added his first priority has been learning more about the communities covered by the Argus and Resorter.

Gneiser and his wife, Shelly, have a 3-year-old son, Colin. Gneiser succeeds Publisher Mary Kunasch, who is retiring after 47 years at the Argus.

Local radio station questions logging procedures at Mt. Morris Hills ParkWaushara County Parks Director responds A local radio station, 105.1 MNM in Mt. Morris, owned and operated by the Mt. Morris Preservation Asso-ciation, as a non-commercial Waushara County radio sta-tion changed their program-ming on Dec. 20 and have turned their focus to the log-ging process at Mt. Morris Hills Park. The station had a certified arborist, David Venzke, who met with the manager of the radio station on Dec. 18, make the statement that there was not a significant amount of oak wilt at the park and believed that some of the trees removed were healthy oaks. The station also aired that 100 acres have been cut and the station did not believe they were getting any answers on their concerns from the county parks department. After listening to the ra-dio station and the interview of David Venzke, Certified Professional Arborist, the Waushara Argus contacted the Waushara County Parks Department to get more infor-mation on the logging at the Mt. Morris Hills Park. Scott Schuman, Waushara County Parks Director, told the Argus that the recent logging

at Mt. Morris Hills County Park started in 1993 with the sizeable cut on the North 40 of the hill. The cut was designed by Curt Wilson from the De-partment of Natural Resources for timber stand improvement and to regenerate oak and as-pen. Schuman went on to explain that he personally marked about 100 trees to be removed from the Mt. Morris 300 acre park that were affect-ed in some way by oak wilt. He added that the trees were from throughout the 300 acre site and not in one area. As for the logging com-pany removing the trees, this past cutting was done by hand cutters without heavy equip-ment. Machinery was used to skid the logs. He also added that the logging company har-vested about four loads of ma-terial and it wasn’t enough to open it up to bidding. Chairman of public works, Everett Eckstein, said that the committee is 100 per-cent behind Scott Schuman and every decision that is to be made is brought to the committee. The committee in addition to Eckstein in-cludes Donna Kalata, county board chairperson, and Den-

nis Wedde, representing parts of the Towns of Mt. Morris, Marion and Wautoma. The funds received from the largest cut in 2011-2012 were used for building and grounds repair for the park and for purchasing additional land adjacent to the Mt. Mor-ris Hills Park. As for cutting in other parks, the department recently did a cutting (approximately 20 cords of firewood) at Kusel Lake Park of pockets of stand-ing dead oaks in preparation for a prairie restoration burn that will be done in the spring by Fox Valley Technical Col-lege. How prevalent is oak wilt in the county? Ken Williams, Waushara County Agriculture Agent, told the Argus that there is oak wilt throughout Waushara County and it has become more of a problem since the wind storm of 2011 and the drought in 2012. He said both of those acts of na-ture have been hard on all trees. He also added that to prevent the spread of oak wilt cutting must be done in the winter and often times it is not only the tree affected, but the ones surrounding it due to roots grafting.

Parkside Book Driveto be held March 2-13 The 5th annual Parkside Middle School Book Drive will be held March 2-13. The books donated to the drive will be given to the students most in need of books at their reading level during the Book Celebration on March 20. Parkside Special Education Teachers Rebecca Umbreit and Sara Gauerke began the book drive having realized many students did not have reading material at home. The goal for the celebration is to provide students with books for the summer they are interested in reading.

The students are selected to participate in the Book Celebration from a parent survey completed during conferences. The survey asks parents the number of books their child currently has and if they would be interested in having their child participate in the Book Celebration. On average, 100 Parkside students are selected each year to participate in the Book Celebration and hundreds of additional books geared toward younger reading levels are shared with Riverview and Redgranite Elementary Schools. Parkside students are able

to choose 10-20 gently used books. In 2014, every student was able to choose one new book using the funds donated to the book drive.

Anyone interested in donating to the drive can drop off donations at Parkside Middle School, 300 South 16th Avenue, Wautoma, or the Waushara Argus, W7781 State Road 21 &73, Wautoma.

Wautoma couple donatesshopping spree to food pantry

After Mary Ann and Saj Saiyed, Wautoma, won the $400 StoneRidge Piggly Wiggly Shopping Spree during the Winter Flurry Feb. 21, the couple chose to donate the prize to the Waushara County Food Pantry.

The fundraiser was held at the Waushara Country Club and included dinner catered by Moose Inn, live and silent auctions, and a variety of raffles. StoneRidge and other Winter Flurry sponsors donated the shopping spree.

Wildcats pounce overRosholt, 36-15

The Wild Rose Wildcats finished their regular season home basketball games with a strong 36-15 victory over the Rosholt Hornets Feb. 20.

“That was as good as a defense as we had in a long time,” said Head Coach Jim Komp. “To hold a team to 15 points doesn’t happen too often. I’m very proud of the team. It’s a very exciting time — things are coming together very well, and I’m excited to see what comes next.”

Wild Rose got off to a good start in the first quarter as three players got on the board. Jarrett Tietz and Tanner Hudziak put up 4 points each as the hosts grabbed a 10-5 lead.

The second quarter started out with 2 of 2 free throws coming from Hornet Sawyer Kurtzwell to close the gap slightly, but Wild Rose had no intention of letting the visitors surpass them.

Evan Erickson put in two scorers for 4 points, while Tietz had two scores for three-points to extend the Wildcat lead to as much as 11 points. A tradeoff of steals late in the period resulted in a Hornet score at the end, finalizing the halftime score at 19-10 Wild

Rose. The Wildcats cruised

through the second half offensively, while putting up occasional scores. Tietz was first to score in the third, then Alec VandeCastle extended the host’s lead by 2 points, making it 23-10 with 2 of 2 free throws.

Hudziak was sent to the free throw line with 45.7 showing on the clock to shoot on a Rosholt technical. He sank both shots for 27-12 Wildcat lead the start the fourth quarter.

The fourth quarter had Wild Rose doing a great job keeping Rosholt to the outside key defensively, while working the ball around offensively, occasionally putting up shots. The Wildcat lead was up to 20 after Alec VandeCastle drilled a three-pointer.

Three other Wildcats players had scored a bucket each to help the hosts achieve a 36-15 victory.

Jarrett Tietz topped the five Wildcat scorers with 11 points. Tanner Hudziak was nipping at his heels with 10 points, hitting 2 of 2 free throws.

Ladycats play defensively in win against Marion

The Wild Rose Ladycats finished their regular season home basketball games on Feb. 17 with a 30-22 win over the Marion Lady Mustangs.

“It was another outstanding defensive effort by our girls tonight,” said Head Coach Bruce Williams. “I was very happy with our attention to rebounding the basketball tonight, and keeping them from getting second chance points. While we didn’t score a lot of points, we took care of the basketball well, and got some good looks at the basket. I continue to be happy with the way we play team basketball and unselfishness on the court. We will see this same Marion team in the first round of our playoffs here at home. So, we’ll have to be prepared for another physical battle.”

Wild Rose had the upper hand in the first quarter of play as three players got on the board. Bre Marchan put up 5 points, with 3 coming on a long shot. Ashley Mendoza added 4 points as the hosts ended the period with the advantage.

The hosts were sent to the free throw line three times in the second quarter. Mendoza was credited with 3 of 4 attempts to ease Wild Rose to a 15-7 halftime lead as Marion was shut out.

The Ladycats extended

their lead in the third to 13, than later 15, beginning with 2 points from Alexa Gravunder’s 4 points in the period. Johanna Shepard added 5 points to Wild Rose’s offense, including a three-pointer and shooting 2 of 2 from the line. Mendoza went 2 of 2 at the free throw line as well.

The Lady Mustangs could only put up two scores, and trailed 26-11 at the conclusion of the third quarter.

Wild Rose didn’t do much scoring in the fourth quarter, with Marchan putting up 4 points to keep the Ladycats in a comfortable lead as they worked the ball around the outside at times to run the clock.

Marion was able to close the gap with three players putting up points. The Lady Mustangs wanted to try and salvage the game, but were disappointed they couldn’t get any closer than 8, falling 30-22.

Wild Rose’s five scorers were paced by Bre Marchan and Ashley Mendoza with 9 points each. Marchan hit a three-pointer, while Mendoza was 5 of 6 from the free throw line. Mendoza also grabbed 7 rebounds.

Johanna Shepard had the team’s other three-pointer as part of her offensive efforts and also led with 4 steals.

Shepard plays strong offenseHaving stopped a third quarter drive, Wild Rose senior Johanna Shepard looks for an opening during the Feb. 17 home game against the Marion Lady Mustangs. The Ladycats went on to win the game 30-22.

Pioneers defeat Manawa on the road, 74-60

The Westfield Pioneers traveled to Manawa Feb. 17 for a non-conference match-up. The Pioneers started off very strong and never turned back, outscoring the Wolves in three of the four quarters, and taking home the 74-60 victory.

“We came out strong in the first half going up 44-19 at the break. We played strong on the defensive end, which led to a very free flowing offense. It was fun to watch as we had only three turnovers and 12 assists in the first half. We had a lot of players contributing on both ends of the floor. We lost a bit of focus in the second

half, but made enough plays to win going away.”

Justin Daye led the Pioneers with a total of 28 points, including 4 three-pointers, 4 assists, and going 4 for 6 from the free throw line.

Following Daye was Greg Winkelman with 16 points, including 2 three-point baskets, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and going 4 of 5 at the line.

Rounding out the top three scorers for the Pioneers was Nick Holly with 15 points, including 5 rebounds, 4 assists and shooting 2 of 5 free throws.

Lady Hornets win season finale in OTEmma Lehr scores 24 points, records double-double

The Lady Hornets secured a 53-51 overtime victory against their South Central Conference rival the Mauston Lady Golden Eagles at home on Feb. 20.

The game not only was the final home regular season game but was also Senior Night, with CeCe Schrank and Manager Grace Lehr honored by Head Coach Tom Butt and team members

Early in the game, Wautoma was able to cling to a lead thanks to Emma Lehr and Caitlin Henschel dialing in from beyond the arc. The Lady Hornets finished the first frame with a 9-6 lead.

The Lady Hornets won the second quarter outscoring the Lady Golden Eagles 15-13 thanks in part to Emma Lehr tallying 12 points, including 3 three-pointers. The third quarter saw a tied battle with Mauston edging the Lady Hornets 13-12 as Wautoma kept a 36-32 lead.

The Lady Golden Eagles would not surrender and foul trouble by Wautoma allowed Mauston opportunities as they cashed in from the line.

The Lady Golden Eagles were able to gather the lead 46-43 late in the game but an Emma Lehr three-pointer tied the game with limited time left. Mauston could not score

with under 10 seconds to play and Wautoma came down and missed a shot in regulation.

In overtime, Wautoma struck first as Henschel got things going to build a lead. Emma Lehr was able to extend the lead making a pair of free throws but Mauston was able to claw their way back.

Schrank delivered a key baseline attack floater with just under a minute to play stretching Wautoma’s lead to 3 points again. However, Mauston’s Sadie Ravenscraft came down and attacked the rim getting fouled. Ravenscraft missed the first and made the second free throw to shrink the gap to two.

Wautoma was fouled on their next possession but could not convert on the double bonus, which allowed Mauston one last opportunity with 3.6 seconds left to play.

The Lady Golden Eagles were able to get a contested shot off but missed to help seal the Lady Hornet’s victory.

Emma Lehr led all scorers with 24 points, including 5 three-pointers, 9 of 12 free throws, while recording a double-double with 10 rebounds.

The other double-digit scorer was Caitlin Henschel with 11 points, including 6 rebounds and 3 assists.

Wautoma went on to win against the Lady Golden Eagles 53-51 in overtime. Lehr and Schrank honored during Senior Night

Westfield School News By Dave Peppler, School Counselor

Be a buddy, that’s the way

0% Bullying/100% Nice Week happens in our elementary schools during the week of Feb. 23-27. This year’s theme focuses on the phrase “Be a Buddy”. The problem of bullying is real, in schools and in society. Opinions on how to address the problem also vary. The way we treat each other is an age-old issue that we have struggled with forever. This year, the simple idea of what it means to be a buddy seemed like a good place to start. “Be a Buddy” is a simple message to try to cause a lasting impact on a complicated problem. As I think about what it means to be a buddy, there are a few core truths that come to mind. The presence of

empathy is one of them, and an awareness of the needs, feelings and circumstances of the other person.

For schools to be a safe and enjoyable environment for students to be in, everyone has to be invested in being aware in this way. From the youngest student to the most senior adult, we all have to care. A second truth is that our actions and treatment of each other have to reflect the attitude of caring and empathy that we say we want and profess to believe in. If they do not, wanting these things is just an empty wish. Like many people, I watched this year’s Super Bowl, as much for the advertising spots as for the game itself. There was a Coca

Cola commercial that gave a glimpse of wishful thinking around making people more caring and empathetic toward each other. In the commercial a guy who is working with a cyber-network accidentally spills his Coke into the system. As it trickles into the network a transformation occurs. All the communication in cyberspace that is nasty and hurtful toward people becomes caring, positive and encouraging.

Wouldn’t it be nice if it could be that quick and simple? The message of being a buddy is a simple one, but it requires much caring and effort from all of us for it to make a difference. There are many places to start, each of us just has to pick one and begin.

Berlin Hospital receives WHA Gold Level AwardBerlin Memorial Hospital was recently awarded the Wisconsin Hospital Association (WHA) Gold Level Achievement Award for participating in the Partner for Patients Program. Pictured with the award are: (back row): Kathy Beier, Tammy Bending, Ginger Goebel, Linda Meier, and Jenny Stelzner; (front row): Trina Hernandez and Pam Mork.

Berlin Hospital awarded Wisconsin Hospital Association Honor

Berlin Memorial Hospital received a Gold Level Achievement Award from the Wisconsin Hospital Association (WHA) for its participation in its Partner for Patients Program.

The WHA Partners for Patients project is designed to reduce hospital-acquired harm by 40 percent and readmissions by 20 percent through focused work in 10 key areas. The project is funded by CMS and contracted through the Health

Research & Educational Trust, an affiliate of the American Hospital Association (AHA).

As part of the initiative, Berlin Memorial Hospital participated in several projects, including reducing obstetrics harm related to early elective deliveries before 39 weeks, reducing hospital acquired pressure ulcers, patient falls, and readmissions within 30 days of discharge, and reducing hospital-acquired surgical site infections.

Berlin Memorial Hospital, which is now a part of ThedaCare, has been involved in the program for the past three years. So far, 86 Wisconsin hospitals have earned Gold Level Achievement while four others received bronze awards.

ThedaCare™ is a comm-unity health system consisting of seven hospitals, including Berlin Memorial Hospital and Wild Rose Community Memorial Hospital.

We-Share-A-County, a status pending new nonprofit organization as of January 2015, is working to help “Heal the Hill” by planting 1,000 state certified oak trees at Mt. Morris Park. The trees were given by an anonymous donation. Garzino Gardens, Saxeville, is the underwriter for the project.

The organization is working together with the Department of Natural Resources and the Waushara County Parks Department to plant the donated trees in April if weather permits. We-Share-A-County encourages service organizations as well as concerned citizens to volunteer take part in the planting.

We-Share-A-County is dedicated to uniting citizens, organizations, ideas, and resources for the betterment of community.

Public planning session scheduled for Kusel, Wilson and Round Lakes

Have you ever wondered about the plants you see growing in the water? Do you know which are native and which are invasive? Do any of them pose challenges to the health of the lake? The next lake management planning session for Kusel, Wilson and Round Lakes will be a great opportunity to learn about their aquatic plants, invasive species and aquatic plant management strategies.

This session will take place on March 6 at 3 p.m. at the Wild Rose Community Center, 500 Division Street, Wild Rose, and is open to the public.

Ted Johnson, Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources Water Resources management specialist, will share his expertise on the aquatic plants of Kusel, Wilson and Round Lakes. Staff will present invasive species identification and strategies for managing invasive species from Golden Sands Resource Conservation and Development Council, Inc.

Those who attend this planning session will help develop the aquatic plant section of the lake plans. In order to obtain as much public feedback as possible, online surveys are written for each

lake and are available before each planning session.

The surveys address the topic of the upcoming planning session, and responses are shared with session attendees. Everyone who visits and enjoys these lakes is encouraged to complete the surveys whether able to attend the planning sessions or not.

The link to the second online survey for Kusel Lake is https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/KuselLake2. The link to the second online survey for Wilson Lake is https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WilsonLake2. The link to the second online survey for Round Lake is https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/RoundLake2.

If you would like to receive a paper copy of any of the surveys, please contact Waushara County Extension Agent Patrick Nehring at 920-787-0416 or email patrick.nehring@ces.uwex.edu.

Planning information and plan drafts can be found at the Waushara County website www.co.waushara.wi.us. For additional information, visit the Facebook page “Waushara County Lakes Project” or contact the Waushara County Lakes Project at 715-346-2497 or wclakes@uwsp.edu.
