THE AWARD WINNING NEWSPAPER OF JUNEAU COUNTY

Lutz to serve
four months

THURSDAY, AUGUST 21, 2014

$1.00

By eva marie woywod


Last week in Juneau County Court Lisa Lutz, 48, of Elroy, entered a plea of no contest to charges regarding a felony charge of
theft in a business setting and 3 misdemeanor charges of theft of
movable property for monies that were taken from a Mauston
School District PTC while she was acting in the role as the treasurer for the organization.
Overseeing the plea and sentencing hearing was Sauk County
Circuit Court Judge James Evenson who presided over the matter
due to Lutz's former affiliation working within the Juneau County
Sheriffs Department in dispatch as well as in other Juneau
County offices. Handling the prosecution was Adams County
District Attorney Tonia Bonnett. Lutz was represented by
Melville Peter Middleton II.
Lutz was originally charged in February of 2013 after an investigation handled by Adams County Deputy Sheriff, Jesse
Phillips. According to the original criminal complaint, Lutz was
accused of stealing a total of $48,174.55 from the Mauston Parents and Teachers for Children (PTC) organization
The complaint went on to say that a red flag went up in November of 2012 when PTC president Jami Lehman received a
call from the Bank of Mauston that their account held at the bank
was overdrawn. Lehman told investigators that she contacted
Lutz about the call she had received and was told it was "impossible" and that she would contact the bank president, Bob Fait.
Later on that same day, Lehman received a call from Fait stating
that he spoke to Lutz and told her that the PTC needed to deposit
$1900 by 2 p.m. or pending checks would bounce. Fait reportedly
told Lehman that Lutz was not making any sense. Also on that
day, the bank provided Lehman with two years of bank statements.
The criminal complaint stated that Lutz had complete control
over the accounts for the PTC and was solely responsible for their
checking and savings accounts. In addition to an account at the
Bank of Mauston, the PTC has a savings account with Edward
Jones. Lehman's research supposedly discovered that in January
of 2012 there was $3000 missing from the savings account.
On November 26, 2012 Adams County deputy Phillips met
with Lutz at her place of employment, the Juneau County Child
Support Agency. Lutz reportedly stated that she had gotten behind
in several payments on payday loans while she was working for
the Juneau County Sheriff's Department. She reportedly stated
she would "rob Peter to pay for Paul." She is said to have stated
she would pay off the interest on one loan by taking out another
payday loan and it spiraled out of control in her acquiring debt.
In court last week, Lutz was in tears when she apologized for
her actions, stating that she loved the children and never intended
to harm them.
As per a plea agreement Lutz received a deferred prosecution
of 3 years if she adhered to the conditions of the agreement which
included that on the same day as the hearing a restitution check
in the amount of $40,000 would be turned over to the PTC. A
payment plan would need to be entered into for the remaining
restitution owed to the PTC. She must seek and maintain employment, write a letter of apology to the parents and children impacted by the crime, and follow through on any treatment or
counseling deemed appropriate by her probation agent. For the
remaining charges she was sentenced to 4 months of conditional
jail time with work privileges
or could be served through
electronic monitoring. She
must remain a law abiding citizen. If Lutz successfully
meets all requirements of the
agreement, at the end of three
years the felony may be removed from her record.
A victim impact statement
from the Mauston PTC was
entered into the record and
Judge Evenson acknowledged
the negative impact Lutz's actions has had on the organization, who must now work
tirelessly to restore trust within
the community that the PTC is
a trustworthy organization
working to meet the needs of
the children within the school
district.
Lutz must report to the
Juneau County Jail on September 6, 2014.

Year long investigation ends in drug bust


By eva marie woywod and Betty waits
Monday evening, The Messenger was contacted by numerous Juneau County residents who witnessed what they
believed to be the Juneau County Tactical team converging on a residence with guns drawn. One person who contacted us stated that they lived near the vicinity and wanted
to know if they should be worried about their family's well
being. The incident was occurring on Highway G north of
New Miner.
When a reporter for The Messenger drove by the location, the reporter witnessed a military containment vehicle,

several SUVs, and Juneau County Sheriffs Department


personnel on the scene, including some in camouflage.
The Messenger spoke to Detectives Ben Gehring and
Gary Pederson and, while the investigation is ongoing,
learned that three individuals were arrested at the scene
and one was arrested in Wood County. All are pending formal charges on the sale and distribution of illicit drugs.
The investigation into the matter has been ongoing for
about a year and more information will be available upon
the formal charges later this week.
Watch The Messenger facebook page for updates on this
investigation.

Welfare call ends in


high speed chase
By eva marie woywod
This past Saturday afternoon Juneau
County Sheriffs Department deputies,
Colleen Beier and Patrick Miltimore, responded to a welfare check request on
State Highway 82 in Lemonweir Township. The original caller had stated that
a red car was parked and that the driver
appeared to be incoherent and possibly
under the influence.
According to a criminal complaint,
when deputy Beier arrived on the scene
the adult male in the car had an aerosol
can of computer cleaner in his hand.
That male, Preston Lee, 26, of Wisconsin Dells started convulsing and vomited
a white foam while white foam was
coming from his nostrils. An ambulance
was called.

Lee then became more coherent,


made a slurred statement to deputy
Beier, started his vehicle and accelerated
towards the deputy's car that was parked
in front of him. It was at this time deputy
Miltimore arrived at the scene and witnessed Lee speeding away. Lee headed
east on State Hwy 82. A chase ensued at
a speed as high as 120 mph.
The criminal complaint states that the
pursuit went from State Hwy 82 to 26th
Ave, to 51st Street to County Hwy HH
to 56th Street, to 28th Avenue, to State
Hwy 12/16 and to Southern Rd at which
time Juneau County Captain Gary Pedersen called off the pursuit. At this point
Lee was near Smith Rd.
Lee reportedly was running stop signs
and disregarding traffic signs while traveling at a high rate of speed.

Through an investigation the law enforcement was able to identify Lee and
charges along with multiple traffic citations were filed. Lee, at the time, was
out on bond for another case where he
was to adhere to absolute sobriety.
Lee who has been charged with 3
felony counts of 1st Degree Recklessly
Endangering Safety, 1 count of Eluding
an Officer and 1 misdemeanor bail
jumping, appeared before Judge Paul
Curran on Monday, August 18, for a
bond hearing where he was placed on a
$7500 cash bond. He is scheduled for an
initial appearance before Judge John
Roemer on September 3, 2014. Currently he remains in custody of the
Juneau County Sheriff's Department
Jail.

Hillsboro man charged


with child sexual assault
by eva marie woywod
A twenty-two year old Hillsboro man, Matthew Blaha, has
been charged in Juneau County Circuit Court with 1st Degree
Child Sexual Assault of a child under the age of 13. At an August
14, 2014 bond hearing, Blaha was placed on a $2500 cash bond
which, as The Messenger went to press, has yet to be posted and
he remains in custody of the Juneau County Sheriff's Department.
According to the criminal complaint, Juneau County Sheriff's
deputy Colleen Beier recently met with a 12 year old female who
provided information that in July she had sexual contact with
Blaha at a residence in Elroy.
Text messages on the girl's cell phone showed lengthy and explicit communication with Blaha, detailing the sexual contact he
wanted to have with her and did have with the girl. At one point
in the text messages Blaha is alleged to have written, "Why is
some kid asking if we are dating - I said you can't "expletive" tell
anyone."
The girl met with and was interviewed by an advocate with
Safe Harbor Advocacy Center in Madison where she provided
information on the sexual contact she had with Blaha.
On July 21st, deputy Beier made contact with Blaha via a telephone call. During that conversation he reportedly confirmed
knowing the young girl and her age.
Blaha is scheduled for a September 3, 2014 initial appearance
before Juneau County Circuit Court Judge John Roemer.

Jessica Michna performs one-woman


show about Mary Todd Lincoln
contributed
On August 5, the tenants of Terrace Heights Retirement
Community in Mauston welcomed Jessica Michna who performed a one-woman show about the life of Mary Todd Lincoln.
Jessica's performance included recollections from Mary's
childhood, the death of her mother and two sons, her marriage
to President Abraham Lincoln, and her life as First Lady.
Mary's story took the audience right up to the afternoon before
her husband was assassinated. This was the first in a series of
three programs that Jessica does as Mrs. Lincoln.
"Over 150 years later, there are still misconceptions about
the kind of person Mary Todd Lincoln was," explained Jes-

sica. "I wanted to show people the true First Lady who was
sophisticated, educated, and very well-dressed."
Originally from Pennsylvania, Jessica is known for her
memorable portrayals of famous First Ladies and women in
history. She does performances portraying Dolley Madison,
Eleanor Roosevelt, Abigail Adams, Helen Keller, and many
others. Audiences laugh along with her humorous anecdotes
and share in her tears as she relates how death and tragedy impacted families.
This recent presentation is just one of the many public
events that take place at Terrace Heights Retirement Community. For more information about the upcoming schedule, call
Shari Hanson at 608-847-2377. Ask about a tour of the facility
as well apartments are now available.

Local residents honor longtime citizen


for all he contributed to the county
By eva marie woywod
Last Thursday evening at the Juneau County Fair, a special dedication occurred. It was one
that was long awaited, and will forever be a special event for many within the community.
Residents and officials gathered in front of the new Holig Dairy Pavilion. The crowd and emotions of those present there were immense. Construction on the pavilion began earlier this
summer and the completion happened just in time for the beginning of the fair. The dream of
the dairy pavilion came about years earlier and the existing building is in honor of Robert
Holig who had a passion for his community and agriculture. In the summer of 2012, Holig
and his wife Joan met with the Juneau County Fair Board to discuss how the current barn on
the fairgrounds could be repaired. They wanted a dairy building that would be more appealing
to the youth and the community and would help pass on a long standing tradition of dairy
farming in Juneau County. Holig passed away in October 2012 from complications following
a stroke. Soon after, friends and family began the campaign for a dairy pavilion in his honor
at Veterans Memorial Park (fairgrounds) in Mauston.

Mauston man charged


in hit and run
By eva marie
woywod
Tyler A. Hendrickson, 20,
of Mauston has been charged
in Juneau County Circuit
Court with 1st Degree Recklessly Endangering Safety
and Hit and Run Causing an
injury for an altercation that
occurred last Wednesday
evening, August 13th. Hendrickson appeared before
Judge Paul Curran on August
14 for a bond hearing. Curran
placed him on a $1000 cash
bond which as of Tuesday
morning, had not been posted
and he remained in the custody of the Juneau County
Jail.
According to a press release from the Mauston Police Department and the
criminal complaint, on August 13th an officer was requested to respond to Hess
Hospital ER where he met
with the victim and witnesses
involved in the incident. That
officer reports that witnesses,
including the injured victim,
heard a loud noise in front
of a residence in the 400
block of Tremont Street.
When the victim went to in-

Tyler A. Hendrickson
vestigate, he got involved in
an altercation with Hendrickson which ended with Hendrickson speeding off after
coming in contact with the
victim with his vehicle.
After an investigation, law
enforcement concluded that
Hendrickson had caused injury to the victim while behind the wheel of his vehicle.
Hendrickson was located at
his residence, where he was
questioned, and taken into
custody. When Mauston Police arrested him and turned
over the report to the Juneau

County District Attorney,


they requested tentative
charges of Operating After
Revocation, and Reckless
Driving, causing Bodily
Harm. A routine records
check also revealed that
Tyler Hendrickson had a
warrant for Failure to Appear out of Columbia
County. Alcohol is believed
to have been a factor in this
incident.
Hendrickson is scheduled
for a September 3, 2014 initial appearance before Judge
John Roemer.

County board approves changes


By eva marie
woywod
On Tuesday morning, the
Juneau County Board of Supervisors voted in favor of
eliminating a position of Captain at the Juneau County Sheriff's Department and creating
another Lieutenant position.
The reclassification will have
a positive fiscal impact of a net
saving of approximately
$10,000 per year.
The position that has been
reclassified has been vacant
since the beginning of the year.
As reported earlier this year by
The Messenger, Steve Coronado who had been employed as
Captain with the department
had voluntarily requested and
was granted demotion to
deputy. That demotion included a decrease in pay.
According to Sheriff Brent
Oleson, Coronado made the request citing a need to work
overtime. Sheriff Oleson
would not comment further
stating that it was a personnel
matter and Coronado would
need to answer any further
questions on the reasoning for
the request. At the time we
originally reported on this, we
made numerous attempts to
contact Coronado for comment, but our calls were not returned.
According to information
provided to board members
Sheriff Oleson advised that it

was possible to eliminate one


full time Captain position provided that the new full time
Lieutenant position was created to properly handle the
caseload and administration of
the department.
Board members also approved the hiring of a full-time
Comprehensive Community
Services (CCS) Mental Health
Profession in the Department
of Human Services. By creating the position it will allow
Juneau County to attain both
state and federal Medicaid Assistance funding. Director of
Human Services, Scott Ethun,
believes the position is crucial
to improving and implementing CCS services to county
residents who need this type of
mental health services and
would be in the best interest to
Juneau County and its residents.
The CCS position will be
fully paid for by state and federal funding and in the event
that funding should cease, the
position will no longer be authorized and shall be terminated.
Board members approved
the reclassification of various
positions that will become effective as of January 1, 2015.
The move to reclassify the position was prompted by an increase of volume and
responsibilities now being performed. The fiscal impact to

the county for the reclassification will be approximately


$13,000 in salaries and fringes.
In the Public Works Department, the position of State Superintendent will move from a
Grade 17 to a Grade 18/Step 3
position. The County Conservation Administrator position
in Land and Water Resources
will move from a Grade 16 to
a Grade 18/Step 8. The Director of Aging in the
Aging/ARDC will be reclassified as from a Grade 20 to a a
Grade 23/Step 5. In the Department of Health, the Health
Officer position will move
from a Grade 23 to a Grade
24/Step 10. In Sanitation/Zoning the Zoning Administrator
will go from a Grade 17 to a
Grade 19/Step 8. Receptionists
in the Department of Human
Services will be reclassified
from a Grade 5 to a Grade 6
position.
Announced at Tuesday's
board meeting, Juneau County
Coroner Kathleen Kohutko
will be leaving her position in
September and moving to
Florida. The position of coroner is an elected position and
Governor Scott Walker will be
appointing a person to fill Kohutko's term until the next
election. Kohutko served dual

Volunteer spotlight goes on Lee Ella Hale


What started with a friend
asking her to become involved with the hospital auxiliary has turned into over
five decades of volunteer
service for Lee Ella Hale.
The Auxiliary Thrift Shop
has had a number of different
homes throughout its history,
but one constant has been the
presence of Lee Ella, who
has been giving of her time
since the store first opened its
doors nearly 60 years ago.
Lee Ella is the last of the
original group of Thrift Shop
volunteers to still be working
at the store, which is now located on Elm Street in Mauston. A lot has changed over
the years, but the dedication
to do good for the community and to offer the lowest
prices around has kept the
thrift store a strong and important presence in the local
community.
In recalling one of her favorite memories of her times
at the shop, Lee Ella said
with a smile, We have the
best prices, and people still
try to bargain with us. I remember a woman who didnt
want to pay one dollar for a

dress because she just wanted


the three buttons off of it. I
remember it so well because
I thought to myself: Who
speaks up for buttons?
Although items are sold at
bargain prices, the Thrift
Shop has managed to raise
funds to award numerous
scholarships over the years,
and to purchase many pieces
of equipment to enhance the
services available at Mile
Bluff. In fact, since its beginning, the Thrift Shop has donated almost $1 million to
the hospital to be used to
meet the healthcare needs of
area residents.
Im proud of the auxiliary
because it means good things
for the community, commented Lee Ella. There is
satisfaction in knowing that
what Im doing is making a
difference in the lives of others.
Everything at the Auxiliary
Thrift Shop is done by volunteers like Lee Ella - from taking in the donated items and
inspecting them for quality,
to organizing and arranging
them in the store, to pricing
items and handling the actual

sales. We have fun and work


hard; were a happy group,
stated Lee Ella, who still
works every Monday and
Saturday. Helping at the
shop gives me something to
do, and thats important at
my age.
The founders of the auxiliary would be very proud to
see just how far the Thrift
Shop has come in making a
positive impact on the community. As the donations near
the $1 million mark, the auxiliary is planning an open
house to say thank you to all
the generous donors and
shoppers who have helped
make this milestone possible.
Watch for further details on
the event, which is hoped to
be held before the end of
2014.
The Auxiliary Thrift Shop
is located at 222 Elm Street
in Mauston. The stores regular hours are: 12:30 to 4:00
pm Monday through Friday,
and 9:00 am to noon on Saturday. Donations of small
items in good repair are always appreciated.
The store is currently in
need of a few volunteers who

Lee Ella Hale has donated time at the hospitals Auxiliary Thrift Shop since the
store opened its doors in 1959. In looking at an old photo of downtown Mauston,
she points to the location of the original shop on State Street.
are able to help out even just
a few hours a week. If you
are interested in lending a
hand, please call Maureen at
608-847-7719.

Royall Panther Baseball Review


The year of 2014 was unique as the game of
baseball focused around the dusty diamonds
of Royall High School and the Elroy City
Park from mid-March until the end of July.
Bring-on the ecstasy of victory and the agony
of defeat as the Panthers saw it all.
rOyall panThers:
The Panther high school team ran into a
good share of disappointment in 2014, finishing the season in frustration. It was a year of
unaccomplished goals as Royall failed to find
the ingredients to win in a 9 win, 13 loss season. It finished as it started with circumstances of hope squished beneath bad
decisions off the diamond before the first
pitch was thrown.
On the positive side, a great season was accomplished by senior infielder Trae Ness who
led the team in hitting with a .342 batting average and a unanimous Scenic Bluffs All Conference Award. Scenic Bluffs Honorable
Mention Awards were received by centerfielder Marcus Blaha, Third baseman Chuck
Brandt and outfielder Dalton Lunde.
Marcus Blaha hit .311, drove in eighteen,
runs and scored twenty-two. Chuck Brandt
also broke the .300 mark with a .318 average
and won four games on the slab with a four
win, two loss record. Dalton Lunde was the
third honorable mention award winner who
played every outfield position and threw a few
innings of relief.
The summer leagues followed with warm
weather and the promise of a new start for the
building of next year and the years thereafter.

The summer leagues are for fun and are dedicated to the baseball players who truly like
the game.
rOyall legiOn:
The Royall Legion put together a learning
season with an ultimate record of 8 and 8.
The legion players filled each Tuesday and
Friday with opportunities to compete and develop skills in many positions. A fixed schedule of Tuesdays involving Necedah, New
Lisbon, Mauston and Royall as each played a
home and away contest against every Juneau
County school.
All but two graduating seniors moved on
with next years seniors moving up to fill the
void. Scores were a little large, but thats the
nature of baseball at the 17 and under age.
Who showed promise? Everyone who
showed up! If you want to play baseball, show
some desire and let your talent take you to the
next level.
The Royall Legion had sixteen players on
the expanded roster. Fourteen have high
school eligibility. The pitching staff included
Adam Vieth, Marcus Blaha, Chuck Brandt,
Josh Murray, Matt Preuss, and Noah Friedl.
Adam Vieth and Marcus Blaha have graduated, but the other four are back on the hill in
2015.
The summer affair is filled with activity with
senior league, little league, and minor league
baseball played every day of the week. Want
to play baseball, get out of bed and show up
at a practice session. Royall caters to grades
kindergarten through graduate.

2014 Minor League Team

The fall season for sports is fully underway


after a round of scrimmages had area high
school football teams getting in a bit of practice before non-conference and conference
games begin a new season.
Teams will be looking to open up their seasons with games starting on Friday, August
22.
Royall will open again with the Riverdale
Chieftains. Last season, the Chieftains gained
a 20-12 victory over the Panthers, as Royall
rounded out the season with a 5-5 record. For
the past eight seasons, Royall and Riverdale
have opened their seasons going up against
each other. Riverdale holds a 5-3 record thus
far with facing one another.
Wonewoc-Center will face North Crawford,
which next season, the Trojans and the

had been showing all year with three decisive


wins over Brookwood, Hillsboro, and
Necedah to win the second consecutive Vacationland Conference Baseball Title. The fifth
grade group title concluded a 16 and 0 summer season.
The fourth grade minor league team won the
consolation bracket, coming back from an
early loss to edge Brookwood in an extra inning contest. The fourth graders called on a
few third graders to help fill the roster of 10
players required for a team in the Vacationland Conference Tournament.
elrOy OuTlaWs:
The Elroy Outlaws pushed through the 2014
season in an undefeated fashion with a record
of 30 wins and 0 losses. As I reflect back on
the number of rainouts, maybe our record was
closer to 3 wins and 0 losses. In either case
the Outlaws finished the year undefeated.
Its a Thursday night of competition at its
best and oldest as ages range from 19 through
59. The players still dream of the one last
chance to sign a professional contract in the
minor leagues and maybe get the ultimate
shot at the Show somewhere down the line.
Its not a softball group, its totally baseball.
Thats baseball for 2014. They say its only
a game, but those who have the talent and desire to make the commitment feel different.
Ready for next year?

2014 Senior League

Area high school football


teams begin season with
scrimmages
by Tasha Mueller

seniOr league:
The Royall Panther Senior League Team put
together a stunning performance on Tuesday,
July 22nd in the senior league conference
tournament held in Wilton. Royall won the
quarter final with the winning pitcher being
Jayden Enzenbacher. In the semi- final game
Noah Friedl toed the rubber and defeated
Wonewoc by a score of 15 to 2.
The championship contest took a while, but
eventually the Panthers won out as Matt
Preuss held the Brookwood Falcons in check
until Royall could put a few runs on the board.
Royall finished the season with an overall
record of 18 and 2 with a Vacationland Conference Tournament Title.
liTTle league:
The Royall Panther Little League Team
walked into the Vacationland Conference
Tournament with an impressive record of 15
wins and 3 losses, but walked away from the
tournament with a record of 0 and 2. Upsets
are part of the game and it happened twice to
the little league team.
The Necedah Cardinals handed the Panthers
the opening round loss in a 2 to 0 defeat. The
bats of the Panthers were left at home without
a run being scored. In the second upset, the
Rockets of New Lisbon came away with the
victory. The Royall Little League Team had a
good season, but simply finished with a couple of rough games.
MinOr league:
The Royall Panther Minor League Team
took advantage of the offensive power they

Wolves will be in the same conference. The


Wolves look to pick up their first win since
2011 as they lost 20 straight games.
New Lisbon will face Kickapoo/La Farge.
The Rockets won the opener 35-6 last season
and have won every game with the Predators
since 2004.
Necedah will face 2013 Division 7 runnerup Glenwood City. The team will travel to the
Hilltoppers and will feature an all new coaching staff.
Mauston will kick off their season with
Tomah, as the Timberwolves finished last season at 2-7 just like the Golden Eagles.
Hillsboro will host Lincoln for their season
opener. Hillsboro is returning five lettermen,
but is looking forward to a strong young force
to gain momentum for future seasons.

Hustlerfest upcoming
By dianna anderson

CHICKEN IN THE PARK It is fast becoming a tradition in Necedah; The Necedah Lions

chicken in the park. This started several years ago and has continued and grown since. Each year on the
third Saturday of July, August, and September you can go to Lions Park and get a half chicken at a good
price. The meal comes with baked beans, potato salad, and bread. Between the half chicken and the rest of
the meal it is a good meal for anyone. All of the profits from the sale go to charity, many things right here in
Necedah. Some of the things that they support in Necedah are; Breakfast with Santa, fruit bags for shut-ins
and elderly, Christmas parade, Easter egg hunt, Highway 21 litter cleanup, the Necedah food pantry, vision
screening at the schools, senior scholarship, Christmas giving tree, post prom, and more. They also support
several state, national, and worldwide charities.The next and last chicken in the park for 2014 will be on September 20th from 3:00 to 7:00 p.m. This is a great way to meet friends, have a good meal and help out a
good service organization.

Nurse will be training in Necedah


By steve norling
The regular meeting of the Necedah Area School board was
held on Monday, August 18th. The first new business on the
agenda was a report from School Nurse Kami Quinell. She
reported that the Juneau County dental report was that the
decay rate in children from pre-K through fifth grade was at
a three percent rate. Two dental hygienists visit the school and
perform preventative care on children who have parental permission. She also reported that over seventy high school students showed an interest in receiving CPR training. So far she
has certified twenty-two students and is confident that there
will be many more this school year. She will also be putting
together a medical response team so that there will always be
someone in the school with some medical knowledge. This is
important for sporting events and other after school programs.
When she is not in the school this will make sure that someone
from staff is there with the knowledge. She will be training
staff members in first aid and CPR.
There was a second reading of Board Policy Updates. All
new policies, updates, deleted policies and one replacement
policy were approved. A new option for credit card purchasing
was discussed and passed. The district will try out a procurement card through the Bank of Montreal. They will be in a
consortium with thirty-one other states. Tracking charges will

be easier as account is compatible with Skyward. They also


have an excellent rebate program. With some qualifications
the board gave their approval to go ahead and try it.
In resignations Nichole Nice, a high school English teacher
has resigned and Cecelia Peters resigned as middle school volleyball coach. Tracy Saylor has been hired as the middle
school volleyball coach to replace her.
Principal Becker noted that the eighth grade leadership team
will be helping with the sixth grade orientation. He also noted
that there will be a special meeting for parents of freshmen on
September 16th to further explain the Laude system and to
better explain the scheduling. He also brought up that many
sport schedules are actually beginning before school begins.
The first football game is the 22nd, the first cross-country
meet is the 26th and the first volleyball game is the 28th of
August.
Superintendent Gierach reported that he attended an ACT
meeting. The new tests will be given to ninth and tenth graders
and will be given in the fall and again in the spring. These
tests will be on the computer system. He also reported that he
is currently working on balancing the 2014/15 budget.
The next regular meeting of the school board will be on
September 15th at 7:00 p.m. The annual budget meeting will
be held on September 22nd at 6:30 p.m.

Great Blood Drive!


Approximately 39,000 units of blood are needed in hospitals
across the country every day.
To help meet these demands, Mile Bluff Medical Center in
Mauston recently hosted a community blood drive on July 30
and August 1. The event was a partnership between the medical
center and the Blood Center of Wisconsin - the only supplier of
blood to Mile Bluff.
At the drive a total of 53 area residents came to Mile Bluff to
make a donation. From these individuals, 45 units of whole
blood, one person donated platelets and one unit of double red
cells were collected. Each of these donations can help improve
the lives of up to three people in need. That means that the donations from this event alone will have the potential to impact over
100 individuals!
In addition to the donors, blood drive organizers would like to
thank Mile Bluffs Food and Nutrition Department for providing
refreshments, Eastern Star for volunteering to serve the food, the
staff from the Blood Center of Wisconsin for making a trip to
Mauston, and everyone else who helped get the word out about
the event.
If you missed this most recent opportunity to make an impact
on the local blood supply, Mile Bluff will be holding another
drive on Thursday, October 9 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. If you choose
to donate, you will have the opportunity to make a whole blood,
double red or platelet donation. If you would like more information on the upcoming event please contact the Blood Center
of Wisconsin toll-free at 1-888-310-7555.

Cherney, rocked the sheep category at the fair this year winning both the Grand
Champion and the Reserve Champion with her animals. The grey colored sheep
to the left was Grand Champion and also the Grand Champion Sheep Carcass
and weighed in at 275 pounds and the Reserve weighed in at 142 pounds.

WHERE IS THE BEEF? RIGHT HERE! The Grand Cham-

pion Steer, Adie, was shown this year by Paige Waits, daughter of Chad and Betty
Waits. He was purchased by Viking Village of Reedsburg for $4 a pound on Saturday. Quite a spunky steer, he enjoyed his baths and would have preferred posing for the crowd rather than being in the barn. Adie also took home the prize of
Grand Champion Beef Carcass.

COWTASTIC COWMOONITY COW was won by Wisconsin

River Meats. This cow won raising $164.35, with the total contest raising $520.07!

the 2015 Juneau County Fair! They will also receive $50 in prize money.

was well received at the auction.

AS CHARLOTTE WOULD SAY, IT WAS SOME PIG

squad teams; junior high football will see roughly 20 athletes


participate, and junior high volleyball will have right under 25
girls out for the season.
Sports equipment has been moved from the basement storage area to the newly built shed right behind the school. Space
will be needed to store football helmets and baseball and softball bats inside so they are not damaged from the winter cold
temperatures.
The football field lights will be repaired with new wires and
will be ready to go by this week. Also, a leaning pole will be
fixed with a brace and painted for caution.
Needham brought the idea to the board about installing a
temporary fence for the baseball and softball fields instead of
using an orange snow fence that is used every season.
The temporary fence would be a mesh material, and four
feet high. Sockets would need to be placed permanently and
would be able to be placed further in the ground to not interfere with the football field.
The cost for the baseball fence would be
$1,900 and

Hope House Selected to Participate in Allstate


Foundations National Purple Purse Challenge
JeSSiCA KAehny
COmmunity eduCAtiOn COORdinAtOR
There are so many words for a purse a bag, clutch, handbag.
But, put the word purple in front of it, and it means so much more.
The Allstate Foundation Purple Purse Challenge was created
three years ago to ignite public awareness of domestic violence
and financial abuse and to assist in fundraising.
Thats where Hope House got involved.
Hope House was selected as one of 146 non-profits across the
country to compete in the Challenge, which runs from Sept. 2 to
Oct. 3.
Hope House will strive to meet fundraising goals to win money
in daily and weekly fundraising contests. All funds raised will
support its free services offered to survivors of domestic violence
and sexual assault in Sauk, Columbia, Juneau, Marquette, and
Adams Counties.
Everything we do is free for the survivors we work with, and
that includes everything from supportive counseling, legal assistance, wellness groups, financial planning services, to food and
personal care items, Andrea Brown, Hope House Volunteer Coordinator, said. Survivors and their families have been through

a lot, and we want to provide support and resources so they can


build themselves up again.
By donating to Hope House through their Purple Purse page
from Sept. 2 through Oct. 3, community members can help support an organization that has provided hope for more than 30
years.
Hope House will be posting educational information about domestic and financial abuse on their website, www.HopeHouseSCW.org,
and
Facebook
page,
www.facebook.com/HopeHouseSCW. As Hope House can attest,
financial abuse is one of the main reasons why people stay in or
return to abusive relationships. Its a huge barrier to leaving if
the abusive partner controls all the money, refuses access to bank
accounts or credit cards, harasses the victim at work, or destroys
their credit said Jess Kaehny, Community Education Program
Manager at Hope House.
With the help of Allstates Moving Ahead through Financial
Management financial empowerment curriculum, advocates at
Hope House can help survivors break through this barrier. They
also invite area financial advisors to meet with survivors one-onone and in group settings to assist with financial planning, budg-

To the readers of The Messenger:


As my term as president of the Elroy Area Food Pantry nears its end, I wish to publicly thank the
Elroy community for its generous and consistent support of the Pantry in its efforts to reach out
with assistance to our neighbors in need. And I would also like to invite everyone to attend the annual public meeting at 10:00 a.m. on Wednesday, Sept. 3rd in the lower level of the Elroy United
Methodist Church. Following a brief business meeting, a guest speaker, Kathy Metzenbauer from
the Juneau County office of the UW Extension, will explain the current needs and some forecast of
the needs in our area. God bless all our volunteers who make this service happen, as well as this
fine community which supports us through their donations.
Shirley Bennett, President
Elroy Area Food Pantry, Inc.
