Summer Fest
Event changes add to chambers top fundraiser

Oregon Summer Fest is
three weeks away, but dis-
count tickets for the carni-
val rides are on sale now.
Event organizer Brett
Frazier, the outgoing exec-
utive director of the Oregon
Area Chamber of Com-
merce, said people have
been calling the chamber
office for more than a week
and asking when the tickets
will be available.
Thats the thing that we
get the most calls about,
Frazi er sai d l ast week.
They are available now at
every bank in town, plus
the chamber office, Bills
Foods, the Oregon Pharma-
cy and the Oregon Pool.
If you buy your tickets
on site, carnival vendors
take one to four tickets per
ride, depending on what it
is, Frazier explained. Those
tickets are $1.50 each. But
presale tickets are only one
ticket per ride and amount
to the same price four
tickets for $6.
So its a good deal, he
said.

Volunteers replace Netherwood neighborhoods felled oaks
Seth Jovaag
Nearly four months after roughly
15 trees were felled to make way for a
new power line, Town of Oregon vol-
unteers on Saturday morning planted
new trees along Netherwood Road.
About a dozen residents, almost all
from the nearby Madsen Circle neigh-
borhood, planted a variety of lilacs
and other flowering trees under the
new power lines installed earlier this
spring by Alliant Energy.
Those power lines caused a stir in
the neighborhood in February after
the Town Board approved the com-
panys plans to remove a row of trees
that included 11 towering oaks rang-
ing from 100 to 200 years old.
Many nearby residents had opposed
cutting down the trees, but town offi-
cials felt removing the trees was the
safest and most cost-effective option.
The trees were cut down in February.
The new trees planted Saturday

OHS documentaries
highlight Oregons past
victoria vliSideS
Did you know one of the
worst tornadoes to hit the
Oregon area was in 1914?
Oregon High School stu-
dents this semester helped
bring this and other histori-
cal facts about the area to
life through documentary
storytelling.
A handful of students in
Bruce Nelsons Advanced
Multimedia class produced
short films about Oregon
history using video footage,
historic photos mostly from
the Oregon Area Historical
Societys website and pho-
tos they took. Each student
did their own voice-over, as
well.
Nelson said he hopes to
add to the documentaries
each year and is even look-
ing into having a summer
course devoted to the topic.
Its an evolving proj-
ect, he said, adding he
hopes to work more closely
with the Oregon Area His-
torical Society in the future.
Films included topics
like the history of Oregon
schools, notable tornadoes
and storms in the area, the
history of the villages
i coni c wat er t ower and
an old business in the late
1800s, Badger Bicycles, as
well as historic homes.
Hannah Joswig and Britt
Peckham both produced
documentaries on storms
in Oregon history. Both
Joswig, a sophomore, and
Peckham, a senior, said
they invest more in a proj-
ect like this because Nelson
allows students to investi-
gate topics that spark their
interest.
I m not t he bi ggest
fan of history, so storms
seemed like a good topic,
Joswig said. I like weath-
er.
The challenge in making
the films was not gathering
the information, Peckham
commented, but rather get-
ting enough video and pho-
tos to cover all the informa-
tion gathered.
Brian Johnson, a senior,
delved into the topic of
historic homes in Oregon,
highlighting different styles
of homes in the area.
It was actually pretty
interesting, he said about
the project.
Other projects the class
did throughout the semes-
ter include a silent movie,
short horror film, public
service announcement of
being tardy and a parody
piece.
Nelson plans to work
with the OAHS to make the
documentaries viewable to
the community.

Bicyclists zip down the Badger State Trail in Fitchburg, just north of the Town of Oregon, last
Saturday. June 1 marked the American Hiking Societys National Trails Day, and events were
scheduled at the local, state and national levels to draw attention to the U.S. trail system. A Bike
Dane event was held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Lussier Family

Most crime categories
dipped in 2012 compared
to previous years and few-
er calls for service were
logged, but police think
theyve reached a stabi-
lizing point for criminal
activity in Oregon.
Or egon pol i ce chi ef
Doug Pettit said a number
of factors have contrib-
uted to decreases in cer-
tain types of crime, as did
the natural ebb and flow of
activity in the area. In gen-
eral, however, Pettit said
he thinks the department
has seen a leveling out of
the amount of crime in the
area, based on the number
of calls for service.
We were i ncreasi ng
for a number years, Pettit
said. Weve sort of stabi-
lized.
Overall, police logged
10,685 calls for service
in 2012, according to data
provided to the Observer
by the department. Thats
down from 11,781 calls
in 2011 and more in line
with 2010 numbers, when
the department had 10,682
calls.
I dont think its that we
have less activity, Pettit
said, adding that the first
part of 2013 looks similar
to 2012.
The total calls for service
reflects the activity level
of the department, Pet-
tit said. As the department
gets more calls, some pre-
ventive measures or non-
essential services might
slip down on the officers
lists of priorities.
Oregon has fewer offi-
cers than similar depart-
ments, meaning his patrol
officers see more cases per
year.
You know who mirrors
you in operations, Pettit
said, adding that Verona,
Waunakee, Deforest and
McFarland are comparable
to Oregon.
Pettit said Oregon has
17 officers who handle
between 1,100 and 1,200
cases per year.
That gets to be pretty
daunting with paperwork
and court dates, Pettit said.
Despite the demand on
officers, the department
saw a dip in some crime
categories in 2012.
OWI
The village had 51 cases
of operating while intoxi-
cated drivers, making that
17 fewer than 2011. The
village had 48 cases of
OWI in 2010.
Pettit said the depart-
ment has been involved in
some special enforcement
programs aimed at crack-
ing down on certain driv-
ing behaviors, including
OWI.
Were involved with all
the various programs that
come down the pike, Pet-
tit said. We do put extra
patrols out. I think that it
has had the effect that we
all hope it would have.
Part of t he decrease
could be attributed to the
changing attitude of soci-
ety towards drunk driving,
he said.
I t s n o t q u i t e a s
acceptable to drive while
impaired, Pettit said.
In addition, Pettit said
he thinks people pay more
attention to the problem.
When people debate about
making OWI laws more
restrictive, it might make
someone think twice about
getting behind the wheel if
theyre impaired.
I think that people sit
up and take notice, Pettit
said. They do a better job
of finding alternatives.
Burglary
Some crime numbers can
be influenced greatly by a
few criminals.
Burglaries, for example,
are usually committed by
a few different cells that
often target the same areas.
By removing these people
or groups, departments can
see a significant drop in
that crime.
In 2010 and 2011, the
village had 40 and 34 cases
of burglaries, respectively.
But a few arrests in the last
couple years might have
helped drop the number
down to 22 in 2012.
It makes that much of
a difference if youre able
to take a couple groups
down, Pettit said.
Other crime
Other crimes vary from
year to year because of
natural waves in crime,
Pettit said.
Traffic incidents dropped
f r om 3, 044 t o 2, 584
between 2011 and 2012,
while traffic arrests jumped
from 686 to 865 during the
same period. 2012 numbers
were similar to 2010 for
both categories, with 2,206
and 839, respectively.
Thef t cases dr opped
sl i ght l y from previ ous
years: 110 cases were
reported in 2012, compared
to 142 in 2011 and 140 in
2010. Battery cases were
similar to last year with 27
cases in 2012 compared to
25 in 2011. Those numbers
are down from 39 in 2010.

with Summer Fest
looming, knutson
becomes director
Bill livick
The new executive direc-
tor of the Oregon Area
Chamber of Commerce will
be a familiar face.
Judy Knutson, who was
elected president of the
chambers board of directors
in January after serving as its
vice president, resigned from
the board last
we e k a n d
t h e n s u b -
mi t t ed her
resume and
application to
take over as
the organiza-
t i on s new
e x e c u t i v e
director. She will leave her
position as Business Rela-
tionship Officer at Union
Bank & Trust Company and
will begin her new job June
17.
Knutson will succeed
Brett Frazier, who has led
the chamber since Febru-
ary 2011. He announced his
resignation two weeks ago
to accept a job running the
Rock County Humane Soci-
ety. His last day with the
chamber will be June 14.
Erin Peterson, owner of
Academy of Sound, was
elected to replace Knutson
as the chambers board presi-
dent. She was the sitting vice
president until the changes
last Friday.
Knutson has served on the
chamber board for several
years and is a 10-year village
resident. Shes worked in
banking for 30 years.
Knutson said she worked
closely with Frazier the past
two years and is eager to
continue building the organi-
zation.
I enjoy working in the
Oregon community, Knut-
son said. Im always volun-
teering, and so I thought this
would be good for Oregon as
well as myself because I can
keep things going that Brett
and the chamber Board of
Directors have started.
Her first challenge will be
over s eei ng
Oregon Sum-
mer Fest later
this month.
Knutson said
she views it
as a great
opportunity.
Im excit-
ed about it,
she said. Ive been working
on it already, so itll work
just fine. Ive worked Sum-
mer Fest for the last four or
five years, so Im very famil-
iar with it.
Peterson steps into the role
as chamber president after
being elected in December
to her second three-year term
on the board.
She agreed that the cham-
ber is well-situated to run
Summer Fest in Fraziers
absence.
A lot of things are already
in place for Summer Fest,
and most of us on the board
have been through at least
one Summer Fest so we kind
of know what to do, Peter-
son said. I dont anticipate
there being any difficulty
with that.

A
s the building block for
all learning, educators,
researchers and parents
agree that time spent reading dur-
ing the summer pays significant
dividends for children.
But taxpayers receive value
when children read, too, because
teachers spend less time each
fall helping students catch up,
and more time
moving ahead
with new
material and
skills. Based
on research
reported to the
state Depart-
ment of Public
Instruction, the
2012 Summer
Library Pro-
gram was worth $947,436 to the
Oregon community.
The research showed that as
much as three months of school
time is saved because teachers do
not have to bring children back
to their reading level of the pre-
vious spring. That research also
shows that students can maintain
their reading level by reading as
few as two or three books each
summer.
This value to the community
is calculated by taking the num-
ber of children who complete the
summer program (797 last year)
and multiplying it by the school
districts annual educational cost
per student ($10,916 in 2009-
10). This is then multiplied by
one-third, because reading is
one-third of the core curriculum
of reading, writing and arithme-
tic, and then again by one-third
because the three months other-
wise spent catching up is equal to
one-third of the school year. (The
educational cost per student does
not include transportation, debt
service or food service costs.)
Educational achievement gaps
are a significant concern in many
communities, and research and
common sense tell us that sum-
mer reading loss is a key factor
contributing to the achievement
gap between struggling and suc-
cessful students. Multiple studies
cited on the DPI website show
that students who dont read over
the summer can lose as much as
two months worth of reading
skills.
More importantly, this reading
loss is cumulative, and by the end
of sixth grade, the studies show,
these children can be as much
as two school years behind their
peers. But reading just two or
three books during the summer
vacation can help keep children
at their current reading level.
Lower-achieving students are
less likely to read out of school,
and those students most comfort-
able reading are more likely to
choose recreational reading as a
summer activity. Public libraries
can break these cycles and get
materials into the homes of chil-
dren who do not have their own
books.
As a way of encouraging sum-
mer reading, the library also
offers special programs and
activities for children and their
parents.
Young children with richer
home literacy environments suc-
ceed when they begin school,
and the freedom to select reading
materials of their choice results
in improved reading skills.
Encouraging reading from
an early age is critical. Middle
school is too late. Even with the
best remedial classes, these stu-
dents will remain behind their
peers.
Attaching a monetary commu-
nity value to the Summer Library
Program which is sponsored by
the Friends of the Oregon Public
Library is not an exact science.
But it is important to recognize
that program participation does
have financial benefits for the
community.
Its also important that we rec-
ognize the vital role the public
library plays in the community
and the contributions it makes to
the educational achievement of
the children who live here. The
positive impact of the SLP is sig-
nificant.
The theme for kids this sum-
mer is Dig Into Reading, and
registration began Monday, June
3. It includes a special event each
week for all ages.
This summer kicks off with the
fourth annual Worm Race, where
kids race real live nightcrawlers.
Another highlight is Black Light
Camp, where kids get to see neon
characters come to life in a col-
orful, fast moving, mysterious
show performed in the purple
glow of black lights.
In hot July, well make sundaes
for children who come to the
library and read for 30 minutes
during our Ice Cream Reading
Challenge. Well end the reading
program with the magic of Great
Scott.
Teens are not left out of the
summer fun. They have their own
theme, Beneath the Surface.
The library is partnering with the
Youth Center to host a monthly
summer book club for ages
10-14. Crafty teens will enjoy a
henna temporary tattoo workshop
and a beading class.
Even if you are not a kid, you
can also enrich your reading this
summer. Join the adult sum-
mer reading program and lead
by example. Participants have a
chance to win prizes with every
book read. Let others know
what you are reading and start a
discussion. Read a new author
or genre with this years theme,
Groundbreaking Reads. There
will be a random drawing for a
grand prize. The program runs
concurrent with the children and
teen programs, June 3-Aug 3.
Relax and read. Get more out
of summer!

lakes and wetlands are among
the most beautiful and richest
environmental resources in the
country, and I know you join me
in wanting to keep them free of
harmful chemicals. Many of us
also have pets and children, and
would just as soon keep chemi-
cals off their feet and hands.
Using organic compost instead
of chemical fertilizer makes your
yard a healthier, safer place, and
keeps chemicals from running off
into the watershed when it rains.
We also take great pride in our
flowers, tomatoes, cucumbers,
peppers, watermelons, pumpkins
and just about anything else you
can grow from a seed. Compost,
when used as a fertilizer, helps
produce bigger, stronger, more
productive plants, which yield
bigger and tastier fruits and veg-
etables.
Of course, just tossing leaves
onto a pile does not make good
compost. It needs to be tended
and turned, and then screened to
remove debris, and thats exactly
what were able to do at our coun-
ty facilities.
And while were thinking of it,
if your spring cleaning yields a
bunch of yard waste, why not take
it and add to the compost pile for
someone else to use later? Yard
waste isnt allowed in your regu-
lar garbage, but the county will
take it off your hands for free!
For more information, visit
countyofdane.com and search for
compost, or call Robert Regan
at 266-4139.

ArtS in the
BarnS returns
Two area barns will play
host to live music and loads
of original artwork next
weekend.
In the Town of Oregon,
the Hayloft Gallery Art Fair
will run from 10 a.m. to 5
p.m. Saturday and Sunday,
June 15-16, featuring paint-
ings, ceramics, jewelry,
photography and more by
25 regional artists inside a
century-old barn that hous-
es The Wood Cycle, 1239
S. Fish Hatchery Road.
Admission is free.
A few mi l es away i n
Fitchburg, two bands
Phox and Hey Marseilles
will headline a June 15
charity performance inside
a restored 1870s barn at
5729 Adams Road.
The art fair is free and
includes tours of The Wood
Cycle, the adjacent busi-
ness owned and operated
by mast er woodworker
Paul Morrison who several
years ago bought, moved
and restored an old barn
from Oregons west side to
its current location. Mor-
rison specializes in making
furniture, cabinets and oth-
er pieces from local trees he
salvages.
The concert kicks off at
7:30 p.m. and will be held
at a barn owned by Bill
and Anne Conzemius, who
annually host a summer
concert series. Admission
is a suggested donation
of $20 or free for kids 6
and under with proceeds
going to Haiti Allies, a
Madison-based charity that
is helping rebuild Haiti
aft er t he January 2010
earthquake.
Seattle based Hey Mar-
seilles is an orchestral-pop
sextet touring in support of
their second album, Lines
We Trace, which came out
earlier this year. Phox is an
up-and-coming six-piece
folk pop band that crosses
many genres. It consists of
former Baraboo residents
who now live in Madison.
Guests can sit on hay
bales or bring lawn chairs
or blankets. Picnics and
car r y- i n bever ages ar e
allowed.

adding only four residents to
their 2010 population of 465.
The village had a 0.9 per-
cent increase. The Town of
Brooklyn had a lower growth
rate of 0.6 percent while its

palities showed a decrease in
population.
Statewide, the Town of

the highest growth rate of
14. 5 percent. The town
added 128 residents to bring

tion of 10,646 in 2010. Those

ed the most residents state-
wide, jumping by 6465 from

Visit the Imprisoned
This corporal work of mercy is a difficult one for many to
embrace because of justifiable feelings of sympathy for the
victims of crime. But, visiting and helping the imprisoned does
not in any way diminish the rights or dignity of the victims of
crime, and in many cases, there is no clear victim of crime. Many
inmates in U.S. prisons are there for possession of illegal drugs,
and they are the true victims of their own crimes, and even when
there is a victim, the criminal always harms him- or herself as
well by committing a crime. Worldwide, there are many who
are in prison for political reasons or issues of conscience. Some
of the values which we should bring to bear on this issue are
the dignity of all human beings, the need for and possibility of
conversion, and trying to enhance the common good. There are
many programs which focus on prison outreach and job training
for inmates, and there is much that we can do, both individually
and as a society, to help the imprisoned make a transition to a
more productive, satisfying life. We should learn about programs
in our area where we can help the imprisoned, and support poli-
cies and programs which give those who have served time a
reasonable chance of leading a good and productive life.
Then they also will answer, Lord, when did we see thee hungry
or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not
minister to thee? Then he will answer them, Truly, I say to you,
as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to
me.

Treasurer reminds about deadline for second tax payment
Dane County is remind-
ing property owners that
the deadline to pay the sec-
ond and final installment
of 2012 property taxes is
Wednesday, July 31.
Propert y owners who
have postponed payment
of t hei r second i nst al l -
ment should have received
a reminder notice over the
past week and should return
the bottom section of the
notice with their payment,
the Dane County Treasurer
Adam Gallagher said in
a news release. There are
three ways to make pay-
ments:
1. Make the check out
to Dane County Treasur-
er, and mail to: PO Box
1299, Madison. Wisconsin,
53701-1299
2. Pay in person at the
City County Building at
210 Martin Luther King
Blvd #114, Madison. Office
Hours are 7:45 a.m.-4:30
p.m., Monday thru Friday.
The office will be closed
July 4 and 5.
3. Pay online (coun-
t y o f d a n e . c o m/ t r e a s u r
er/) with a credit card or
e-check. There are addition-
al charges if you pay elec-
tronically.
Gallagher in the press
release urged taxpayers to
not wait until the last day,
thereby allowing time to
reconcile inadvertent pay-
ment situations such as
transposed digits or insuffi-
cient funds. If they cannot
pay the whole amount due,
property owners should
pay as much as they can
to minimize the additional
costs from interest and pen-
alty.
The cost of missing the
second tax installment is
severe, Gallagher said in
that release. Delinquency
charges are retroactive to
Feb. 1, 2013, and total 10.5
percent interest and pen-
alty. Our office has almost
no legal authority to waive
those costs. So, it is imper-
ative to pay property taxes
on time to avoid a delin-
quency.
Property owners mailing
payments are reminded to
make their checks out prop-
erly. Specifically, checks
shoul d be made out t o
Dane County Treasurer for
the exact amount due and
include the parcel number
on the memo line. Be sure
to sign the check. Prop-
erty owners should also
use the pre-addressed blue
envelopes and include the
bottom tear-off payment
section from the reminder
notice.
Property owners can go to
Access Dane (http://access
dane.co.dane.wi.us/) to get
information such as e-bills,
e-receipts, and e-statements
that indicate how much is
owed on individual parcels.
Pr oper t y owner s can
email questions to treasur-
er@countyofdane.com or
can call the Dane County
Treasurers Office at 266-
4151.

State association backs
OSD in legal appeal
Seth Jovaag
More than 15 months
after it was filed, a law-
sui t r emai ns i n l i mbo
involving a decision by
Oregon School District
officials not to enroll a
then-14-year-old student
expelled from Janesville
schools in 2011.
Last week, the Wiscon-
sin Association of School
Boards wei ghed i n on
the matter, backing OSD
officials stance that they
arent obligated by the
state constitution to enroll
any student who has been
expel l ed from anot her
district.
The association filed a
brief last Thursday in the
state Court of Appeals,
which is reviewing the
case after a Dane County
Circuit Court judge last
March denied a tempo-
rary injunction requiring
OSD to provide alternate
education for the student.
T h e s t u d e n t wa s
accused by Janesvi l l e
School District officials
in October 2011 of sexual
assault and possession of
tobacco at Edison Middle
School in Janesville. The
student was suspended
for a combined 10 days,
then was expelled Nov.
3, the day after he with-
drew from the district to
move to a Fitchburg fos-
ter home, according to
a plaintiffs brief. OSD
then denied the familys
request to enroll him in
Oregon Middle School on
Nov. 8, 2011.
In February 2012, OSD
was sued by a parent of
the student. An attorney
from Di sabi l i t y Ri ght s
Wisconsin claimed the
district was denying the
students constitutional
right to a free public edu-
cation, the brief said.
OSD of f i ci al s have
countered that state law
allows districts to reject
admission to expelled stu-
dents from other districts.
OSD super i nt endent
Br i an Busl er i n ear l y
2012 told the Observer
the district declined to
enroll the student after
reviewing details of the
i nci dent s pr ovi ded by
Janesville officials.
Bus l e r de c l i ne d t o
release details because
the student is a juvenile.

female classmates say-
ing the boy groped them
without their consent.
Last December, Dane
County Judge Peter C.
Anderson dismissed the
complaint. In February,
attorneys representing the
student filed its appeal.
In April, the Oregon
School Board approved a
request seeking support
from WASB in the case.
WASBs assistance in
this case would be critical
because this is an issue
which will impact school

Busler and district human

Dick Trickle Memorial
comes to MIS
John WellS
Special to the Oregon Observer
Tr ack of f i ci al s have
announced that the first
round of the Super Late
Model Triple Crown Chal-
lenge on Sunday, June 16,
will now be known as the
Dick Trickle Memorial 99.
The race, named for the
late racer, will be the first
of the four Triple Crown
Challenge events sched-
uled for 2013 at Madison
International Speedway.
Dick Trickle was a hero
to so many of the race fans
in this area, MIS general
manager Dave Grueneberg
said. He was one of the
guys that put short track
racing on the map. You
j ust dont have dri vers
today that can accomplish
what he did being able to
go from track to track and
win regularly.
Tr i ckl e l ogged many
miles at MIS, especially
i n t he earl y 1970s. He
won track championships
at MIS in 1971 and 1972
and picked up 72 feature
wins on the half-mile. His
victory total tops the list
of all-time feature win-
ners at MIS. Trickle won
mor e t ha n
1200 r aces
in his career,
according to
reports.
Gr u e n e -
berg said he
remembered
Trickle as a
fierce com-
pet i t or and
an all around good guy.
It wasn't unusual to see
Trickle pull into the pits
shortly before the races,
roll his car off the trailer
and go out and win, he
sai d. He was j ust t hat
good.
From an interview for
the MIS Yearbook in 2005,
Trickle was asked about
his accomplishments and
whet her anot her dri ver
coul d r epeat or bet t er
them.
All records are made to
be broken, and Im happy
to hold a few of them,
he said. Its unlikely that
someone wi l l wi n over
1,200 races, but that could
happen t oo. The r ul es
when I raced t he short
t racks were consi st ent .
Back in my day, the good
ol d days, you t ake t he
same car and run every-
where. Now there might
be three of four different
engine rules and theyre
harder to police.
The Super Late Model
Triple Crown Challenge
is a four event series with
races also scheduled for
July 14 and 28 and Sept. 8.
The Midwest Trucks and
INEX Legends will also be
on the racing schedule for
each of the Triple Crown
events.
Dick Trickle meant a
lot to so many people who
followed racing in this part
of the country, Gruene-
berg said. Just about any-
one who watched him race
or met him has a special
story to tell. We want to
take some time to remem-
ber all that he did for rac-
ing.

Committee: Houses, not apartments

housing.
Although those attri -
butes are oft-cited goals of
planners, a steering com-
mittee formulating plans
for the 365-acre North
Stoner Prairie Neighbor-
hood declined to include
these provisions in favor
of more upscale single-
family homes. The deci-
sion mirrors the preferenc-
es of residents who have
helped plan other neigh-
borhoods in Fitchburg.
The neighborhood is
immediately north of Lacy
road and is bisected by
Seminole Highway. The
committee opted for sin-
gle-family houses east of
Seminole Highway (abut-
ting Savanna Oaks Middle
School) and commercial
and industrial develop-

open a wall and build a
new rest aurant i n bot h
sides.
That restaurant, Masons
on Main, opened late last
month to much anticipation
and fanfare.
The north side is now an
attractive bistro, sporting
five flat-screen TVs and a
dark-wood bar along one
side of the room, opposite
a seating area for about
40 customers. An exterior
wall of exposed brick is
adorned with historic pho-
tos recalling the village
in the second half of the
1800s.
There are lots of other
hi st ori c t ouches t o t he
r oom. Br i ck t hat was
removed to create an open-
ing in the wall between the
two buildings now anchors
an end of the bar, and even
t he r est r ooms exude a
sense of history and gravi-
tas: The heavy doors on the
womens and mens rooms
were salvaged from the
state Capitol building.
On the other side, in the
former Masonic Temple,
an open kitchen was built
adj acent t o an el egant
di ni ng room wi t h seat-
ing for 65. Each table is
set with a floral arrange-
ment , whi t e l i nen nap-
kins and tablecloths. An
original pressed-tin ceiling
has been restored, and the
walls have been given a
new coat of paint to match
the rest of the interior.
When the Thiels opened
the restaurant Wednesday,
May 22 for a private party,
they hired a pianist and
cellist whose music set the
mood.
The Thiels are partnering
with their son, Hans, his
wife Nikki, and executive
chef Jonathan Cross on
the restaurant. They have
invested much time, effort
and money i n t he new
endeavor, and last Mon-
day, Jerry was confident
about their decisions.
Be t we e n r e s t or i ng
these beautiful buildings
and Jonathans talent, we
thought if we build it, peo-
ple will come and they
have, he said. We turned
our dining room over four
times (the first) Saturday
night. (That) Sunday was
really nice and busy, as
well, and today weve got
diners eating and drinking
at the bar. People are really
impressed with the dining
room and the bar.
Food and service
Cross, a chef for more
than 30 years, was former-
ly the executive chef of the
Legend at Bergamont. He
created an extensive menu
that includes pub appetiz-
ers, t apas, sandwi ches,
soups and salads, pasta and
poultry, seafood, steaks
and other cuts of meat such
as pork, lamb and veal.
There is also a kids menu.
The Reubens are excel-
lent, Thiel said, and Ive
never had burgers t hi s
good.
To go wi t h t he food,
the bar has an impressive
list of beers (including 14
on tap), wines, specialty
drinks and cocktails.
Thiel said there will be
live music a few nights a
week, and he expects ser-
vice in the bistro and res-
taurant to be the sort that
he and Bonnie have expe-
rienced at some of their
favorite restaurants.
We have a staff of about
35, he said. We think our
staff will stabilize with
permanent employees.
Our goal is to have a
staff here similar to what
the Glarner Stube has in
New Glarus. The people
that waited on us 10 years
ago when we started going
there are the same people
that wait on us now. They
offer the same quality food
and service.
Back to food
The Thiels had been in
the food service industry in
the Madison area for years
before turning their atten-
tion to real estate 10 to 15
years ago. Jerry sounded
almost surprised in his new
role as a restaurateur.
Its a whole different
beast that we didnt think
wed get i nvol ved wi t h
ever again, he said.
He believes that opening
a classy, upscale restaurant
with a less formal bistro
in downtown Oregon will
benefit the entire commu-
nity.
I think we can make
this work at the same time
as the Main Tap and Seor
Peppers and Marias Piz-
zeria and Albericis Deli
and everybody else, Thiel
sai d. Ther e s enough
business to go around, and
I think its all going to
enhance everybodys busi-
ness. In that regard, I think
the community is the win-
ner.
As del i ght ed as t hey
are to open the new busi-
ness, the Thiels are equally
proud to have restored the
two historic buildings. The
north building, at 113 S.
Main St., was constructed
in 1877; the former Mason-
ic Temple went up in 1898.
We wanted to give them
some Old World charm,
and I think the spirits in the
buildings are smiling down
on us right now, he said.
We wanted to make their
presence known through
the photographs that Dave
Stluka is producing for the
bistro and the main din-
ing room using the nega-
tives from the Historical
Society. And we couldnt
have done it without their
cont ri but i ons i n bui l d-
ing the buildings: digging
t he f oundat i ons, haul -
ing the limestone, making
the brick and building the
buildings that they did.
He said the real credit
for the buildings goes to
all of those talented people
that came before us.
Were just repurposing
the buildings so they get
more attention, Thiel said.
Thats how Bonnie and
I feel about it. The com-
munity response has been
absolutely awesome.

Losing the old oaks still
stings, Blomstrom said, but
having the new trees plant-

who lives in Madsen Circle.
The nearly 20 new trees
included lilacs, autumn bril-
liance serviceberries and
thornless cockspur haw-
thorns.
They grow to a maximum
of about 20 feet, so they
wont interfere with the
new power lines. Several
new trees were also planted
along Madsen Road.

SENIOR CARE
Q. Why do so many elders suffer from chronic pain?
A. Up to 88% of older adults report some form of chronic pain. But the good news it that they
can learn to manage their condition and live a full life in spite of pain. Chronic pain in elders can
be more challenging because it can be harder to diagnose and treat. Many elders are less likely
to tell their doctors about chronic pain for several reasons. Some elders may be concerned that
this pain is a normal part of aging while others might not want to seem vulnerable. Some might
have fears of nding a potential illness, or have trouble communicating because of decreased
hearing, or even compromised abilities associated with a stroke or dementia. The result for many
elders is that it leaves them trying to cope with chronic pain on their own. Older adults, who have
chronic joint pain or muscle aches, especially in the legs, are 50% more prone to falling than
elders without pain. An injury from a fall, coupled with a persistent pain condition, results in a longer recovery period and
potentially a lower quality of life. If you feel your loved one may be suffering from chronic pain, encourage him/her to see
a doctor. Be sure to tell the doctor about all medications your elderly senior is taking, this will help ensure that medication
interactions do not occur.

VETERINARIAN
Q. My dog gets very upset during thunder storms. What can I do to help?
A. Many dogs suffer from astraphobia a fear of thunder and lightening. Other dogs are adverse to many loud
noises. A stormy Independence Day celebration can be a dogs worst nightmare! What can you do to help?
Studies have shown that trying to soothe the pet by holding and cuddling dont really help them. It often makes
you the owner feel better, though, and that is ok. There are a number of other things to try for your pet and
different pets will respond better to some things than others. Thunder Shirts
are tight tting t-shirts designed for

dogs that help them feel secure and protected. Many dogs do extremely well with these on. Some dogs require
medication (antianxiety medications, not sedatives) to cope. For the time-dedicated owner, there are audio
methods of counter conditioning pets to the sounds of storms that can work well. These offer gradual results and
summer is not the best time to introduce these. We hate to see our dogs upset and many owners feel helpless.
Talk with your veterinarian. We can help. Ask about what solution might work best for your individual pet.

session Monday, the board,
through village attorney
Mat t Dregne, i ndi cat ed
it would give up the idea
and instead make another
attempt to buy a rental
property on Jefferson Street
owned by commer ci al
developer Paul Lynch.
The property is adjacent
to the Jefferson Street park-
ing lot, which is located
behind a row of South Main
Street businesses.
The village is planning to
refurbish the lot this year
and has budgeted $50,000
for the improvements. The
lot has not been resurfaced
since the mid-1970s and,
everyone seems to agree, is
looking dilapidated.
Village officials que-
ried Lynch earlier this year
about his interest in selling
his property. At the time, he
indicated he was not inter-
ested.
On Monday, the board
approved spending $18,300
to have the engineering
firm MSA Professional Ser-
vices perform engineering,
bidding and inspection for
the Jefferson Street lot.
Public Works director
Mark Below said the vil-
lage would receive two
plans from MSA, one that
includes the Lynch property
and one without.
Village President Steve
Staton declined to comment
on why the Village Board
had changed course on the
South Main Street home,
citing a new ethics code
that prohibits officials from
speaking publicly about
closed session discussions.
But its likely the boards
decision was in response to
the villages historic pres-
ervation community. Two
women, Pat Wilkening and
Julia Meyers, spoke during
a public comment period
at the last board meeting
against removing a historic
home from downtown Ore-
gon. And two others wrote
emails to the village also
opposing the idea.
Village officials hope
to create more downtown
parking in light of the fact
that all storefronts are now
occupied for the first time
in several years.

communitys annual sum-
mer celebration has plenty
of other activities to draw
you in: a Sunday parade
and marching band show, a
classic car show, a 5K run,
a microbrew fest and, of
course, live music.
Frazier said there are a
few things this year that
havent happened in past
Summer Fests. Super Tues-
day will not appear this
year. Inst ead, Madi son
County will take the stage
as the headliner on Satur-
day night.
Its a band that peo-
ple have been asking for
for years, Frazier said.
Theyre very popular, so
we hope that translates into
people coming out to see
them.
The microbrew fest that
was held on Thursday last
year is being moved to Sat-
urday and will begin at 11
a.m., about the time the 5K
run is ending.
Were going to try it as
the after-party for the run
this year, he said. Were
moving the run back to Sat-
urday morning at 10 and
from 11 a.m.-2 p.m. well
have the microbrew fest
in the beer tent. Were just
trying to find the right spot
for that.
Another change is there
wi l l be no beer i n t he
beer tent Thursday night.
Instead, a band compris-
ing students from Oregon
Middle School will perform
under the tent beginning at
about 6:30.
The band, Distant Cous-
inz, expressed interest in
playing at Summer Fest,
Frazier said, so hes rear-
ranged things to accommo-
date them.
Well fence it so the kids
arent near the beer, and if
they can get some friends
down to see them play some
classic rock, maybe itll
turn into that Youth Night
that weve always wanted
to have, he figured.
Another change is that
the classic car show will be
moved from Jaycee Park
to Spring Street this year.
Frazier said the cars will be
on display along both side
of Spring Street and in the
Oregon Bowl parking lot.
All the way from Park
Street to Grove Street will
be closed down on Sunday,
and classic cars will line
both sides of the street, he
said.
As always, Frazier said,
the event could use more
volunteers. And there are
perks for those who choose
to do so.
If you volunteer, well
give you free admission to
the beer tent theres nor-
mally an $8 cover charge to

Schneider
wins a
match at
state meet
Jeremy Jones
Sports editor
J a c k s o n S c h n e i d e r
couldnt believe his luck,
or misfortune, upon learn-
ing his first-round draw last
Thursdays WIAA Divi-
sion 1 individual state tennis
tournament.
Schneider had been tex-
ting back and forth with
Ryan Risgaard of Neenah
the weekend before state
about hitting together as
the Schneider family was
already going to be in town
for his younger brothers
soccer tournament.
Schneider, whose father is
originally from Neenah, and
Risgaard had become friends
through that connection and
even went on to play doubles
together, winning the Fox
Cities tournament in Apple-
ton the past coupe of years.
Learning hed drawn Ris-
gaard in the opening round,
those plans were quickly put
on hold.
I couldnt believe it,
Schneider said. I mean
what are the odds of draw-
ing him in the first round at
state.
Schneider said the more
he thought about it, though,
the more he realized it might
be a favorable matchup for
himself. He certainly some
familiarity with the Neenah
freshman, after all.
Though it didnt look like
a favorable matchup early,
Schneider prevailed in the
super tiebreaker 3-6, 6-2 (6).
Early on, I was going for
too many big shots and hit-
ting a lot of unforced errors,
Schneider said. I wasnt
being pressured. I just wasnt
striking the ball well.
Schneider, who said he
doesnt usually like super
tiebreakers in place of a full
third set, was happy it ben-
efited him Thursday.
The win moved Schneider
(16-7) into the second round
against No. 16 seed Calin
Dumitrescu (26-5) where he
fell 6-0, 6-4.

Girls lacrosse falls in overtime to end inaugural season
Oregon girls lacrosse earned two con-
ference awards this year.
Sophomore, Kenzie Torpy was
awarded second team all conference at
the attack position. Sophomore Kari
Bertler received an honorable mention
as a midfielder.
The girls finished their season playing
in regionals in Verona last Wednesday.
Oregon led Verona 4-2 at halftime,
but Verona came back and tied the game
at 6-all to force overtime where Oregon
lost 7-6.
Torpy led with four goal, while junior
Hannah Kane added two.
Sophomores JoAnna Beach, Kayla
Linley and Marissa Wedderspoon each
had an interception. Sophomore Tasha
Martin had 13 saves out of 20 shots on
goal.
Coach Jon Pflaum was impressed at
how his team works together.
This is only their second year play-
ing, and we almost knocked off a well-
experienced, top team in overtime, he
said. Im anticipating a winning season
next year.
Hannah Kane looks for an opening to the net last Wednesday in a girls lacrosse playoff game against Verona. The Panthers fell 7-6 in
overtime.
Sports short
Panthers drop regional final in five innings at No. 2 Beloit
AnThony Iozzo
Assistant sports editor
After junior Logan Laski
dominated the bats of No.
7 Monona Grove on May
28, t he No. 10 Oregon
basebal l t eam had hi gh
hopes of another upset last
Thursday in a WIAA Divi-
sion 1 sectional semifinal
at Beloit College against
No. 2 Beloit Memorial.
But the bats of the Pur-
ple Knights proved a little
more difficult to contain in
a 13-1 loss in five innings.
The Panthers failed to
get down a sacrifice bunt
down 3-0 that would have
put two runners in scoring
positions. Junior Pierce
Pet er son ( 2- f or - 2) f ol -
l owed wi t h a si ngl e t o
knock in one run, but that
was all Oregons offense
could muster.
Bel oi t answered wi t h
10 runs in the final two
innings. Five of the final
runs were unearned.
We had some things go
bad for us that if we exe-
cute, not necessarily the
big things but the small
things, then we could play
with anybody, head coach
Kevin Connor said.
Matt Weber picked up
the loss. He went 2 2/3
innings and allowed three
earned runs on four hits.
He walked three and struck
out one.
Seni or Zach Ragel s
came in for relief in the
third inning and went 1
1/3 innings, allowing five
earned runs on four hits.
He walked two.
Junior Ross Galloway
pitched 2/3 of an inning
and allowed five unearned
runs on four hits.
The Panthers finish the
season 5-13, but it does
r et ur n 14 pl ayer s next
year. All of the returners
will be seniors.
We have 14 guys on our
roster that will be seniors
next year, Connor said.
The experience they got
this year will help them.
... We have to remember
what this feels like and
where we left off.
Seni or s Si mon Mau-
rice, Adam Brauns, Jake
Kleitsch and Ragels were
all starters that graduate.
They are going to be
missed, Connor said. I
hope they can look back
at their careers at Oregon
High School and feel good
about what they did.

right foot for a 2-1 win and
Oregons first regional title
since 2003.
Despite nearly doubling
up DeForest on shots and
the Norskies main goal
comi ng on a defensi ve
error, the Panthers still
needed t o prot ect t hei r
zone in the first overtime.
Brien started the scoring
in the 55th minute, before
DeForests Eric Renze tied
the game in the 77th min-
ute.
Senior goalie Britt Peck-
ham finished with eight
saves.
The Panthers will play
No. 2 Madison Memorial
in the sectional semifinals.
The two teams hooked
up April 5 to open the sea-
son, and the Panthers won
1-0. But Grutzner said she
know the Spartans are bet-
ter and hopes Oregon can
be, too.
We just have to keep
trying to possess the ball
and make smart decisions,
Grutzner said. We know it
is going to be tough.
She added that the girls
will need to finish their
shots a lot better against
what she expects will be
limited opportunities.
At times, we possess
the ball well and get shots,
but we do not get near the
target with them, she said.
The game is at 7 p.m.
Thursday at Oregon High
School.
Oregon 6, Holmen 0
The Panthers crushed No.
15 Holmen 6-0 last Thurs-
day in a WIAA Division 1
regional semifinal.
The Panthers possessed
t he bal l for al most t he
entire game and jumped out
to a quick 2-0 lead before
blowing the game open in
the second half.
Senior midfielder Sarah
Jacobs scored first with an
assist to junior midfielder
Eliza Neidhart. Neidhart
followed with a goal of her
own. Freshman midfield-
er Taylor Martin had the
assist.
Senior forward Hayley
Engelhart, freshman mid-
fielder Jess Jacobs, Jahn,
and Makenna Fanning all
scored goals in the second
half.
Sophomore midfielder
Paityn Fleming picked up
the assist on Jacobs goal.
Oregon also hit the post

Peckham was only chal-
lenged once and picked up
the save.

Boys lacrosse makes great strides over season
The Oregon boys varsity lacrosse season came to an
end last Friday with an 18-12 loss at Stoughton.
Oregon kicked off the postseason with a 13-12 win
over Heritage Christian in its first-round playoff game
on Wednesday, May 29, with a goal in the last 30 sec-
onds of regulation. It was essentially a play-in game to
see who faced top-seeded Stoughton.
After some tough losses earlier in the year to Stough-
ton, the Panthers demonstrated how much they have
improved with a more competitive final score.
Starting with a smaller team, half of which were first
year players, coach David Kean said he was very proud
of his teams effort and improvement and is excited for
the potential to make even bigger gains next year as the
team will only lose two seniors.
All of the top scorers for Oregon will return, includ-
ing juniors Christian Poe, Troy Johnson, Dan Gorman
and freshman Trent Ricker.
Sophomore Zach Jensen, who has several years of
experience, helped anchor a relatively inexperienced
defense.
First-year freshman goalie Ben Pasley made great
strides and looks to build upon his success next year.

A few thoughts from Joe Conant,
Stoughton Graduate, Class of 1989:
Boys:
Pull up your pants and your job opportunities will increase.
Throw away all video games and get moving
Above all, start being a man
Girls:
Respecting yourself is the greatest gift you can give yourself
Use common sense when using electronic devices
Lastly:
Money will never buy you happiness
One is not entitled to anything, one needs to earn it
Respect is earned through ones behavior
I wish you all the best in whatever
you choose to do. God Bless!
To the Class of 2013:
Best Wishes & Good Luck!
