16 Teams to
compete in
Rotary Survey
Says... event
Sheboygan, WI -- All 16 teams for
the upcoming Rotary Survey Says...
event are signed up. The event,
being organized by the Sheboygan
Rotary Club will take place on Sat-
urday, February 6, 2010 at Kohler
Public School (333 Upper Road in
Kohler) in the gym, theater, and
cafeteria areas of the building. The
competition will be patterned after
the popular Family Feud televi-
sion game show.
Teams are made up of five play-
ers and include local companies
(Bemis, Maritime Insurance, May-
line, and Rockline), non-profit or-
ganizations (churches, Great
Marriages for Sheboygan County,
Sheboygan County Chamber of
Commerce, and United Way),
schools (Lakeland College, North
High, Pigeon River 5th graders,
South High), and professionals (at-
torneys, bankers, dentists, and ob-
gyns). In the Rotary Survey Says...
event, contestants will identify the
most popular responses to survey
questions posed to 100 county resi-
dents. Questions will be general in-
terest as in the original show and
Sheboygan area specific. A sample
question is name a part of a fish
you dont eat: eyeballs - 46, bones
- 21, gills - 18, scales - 10, and head
- 5 to total the 100 people surveyed.
The competition is a single elim-
ination format with the first three
rounds to take place in the gym
with four matches going on simul-
taneously. The first matches begin
at 4:00 p.m.
Bleachers will allow attendees to
view all four matches. The final
three rounds of play will take place
in the theater.
In keeping with the 70s game
show theme for the event, an adult
and kids plate dinner will be avail-
able for purchase. Final details of
the menu are being determined.
Available ala carte throughout
the evening will be desserts, snack
type items, and beverages.
Entertainment will be offered in
the cafeteria area to encourage both
players and event attendees to make
this a family outing. Bean bag toss,
face painting, balloon creations,
and a coloring contest have already
been confirmed.
Tickets for the Rotary Survey
Says... event are $5 and can be pur-
chased by calling 208-1343.
Monies raised from the Rotary
Survey Says... event will fund local
and global projects. The club sup-
ports local and international proj-
ects and has contributed in excess
of $600,000 to date. Locally, they
have supported: the new Taylor
Drive park renovation, Rotary
Riverfront Park, Harbor Center Ma-
rina promenade, student scholar-
ships, Rebuilding Together, Meals
on Wheels; and internationally;
polio eradication, equipment to pro-
vide safe drinking water, and Shel-
ter Boxes in response to natural
disasters. The Sheboygan Rotary
Club is Sheboygan areas largest
Rotary club with approximately
140 members.
The club meets at the Elks Club
in Sheboygan every Monday at
noon for a buffet luncheon that also
includes a business meeting and
speaker. For more information

event visit

From Police Chief
Bill Rutten:
Deer Abatement update
The Kohler Police Department is continuing its
program of controlling the deer population in the
Village of Kohler. The department has again re-
ceived a DNR permit to control the herd and will
hopefully be able to keep the population in check
this winter. In addition, several years ago the Vil-
lage Board enacted an ordinance prohibiting the
feeding of deer anywhere in the Village of
Kohler. The ordinance is an attempt at keeping
the deer out of the residential areas of the village.
The ordinance prohibits the artificial feeding of
deer with corn or grains, salt or minerals, or fruits
and vegetables placed there for the purpose of
feeding or attracting deer. By not feeding the
deer, hopefully they will stay in their normal
habitat and not encroach on the residential areas.
Gunlocks
The Kohler Police Department continues to sup-
ply Masterlock trigger locks to any Village Res-
ident that would like one. In addition to the
trigger locks provided, the Kohler Police Depart-
ment also is participating with the U.S. Depart-
ment of Justice gunlock grant program, Project
Childsafe. These gunlocks are the cable style and
anyone may request up to three gunlocks from
the Kohler Police Department through that pro-
gram.
Identity Theft
Have you or someone you know been a victim of
Identity Theft. Statistics show that over 8 million
Americans have been a victim of identity theft.
The perpetrators are looking for victims without
criminal records and good credit ratings, thats
you! Protect yourself with some easy to do steps.
Shredding your confidential mail is very impor-
tant. Remove unnecessary identifying informa-
tion from your checks, such as phone number and
Drivers License number (a retailer will ask if they
need it). Check your credit report annually for
free at www.annualcreditreport.com. You do not
need to sign up for anything at the site to get the
report. Stop unsolicited pre-approved credit
cards from being mailed by calling 1-888-5-
OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688), you can opt-out for
life. Also, never answer questions about your
identity on the phone or by unsolicited e-mails.
Your bank or other financial institutions have all
your information, they dont need you to tell
them again by e-mail or phone. The Kohler Po-
lice Department has a link about other ways to
protect yourself at www.kohlerpolice.com.

A SERIES OF WATER QUALITY FACT SHEETS ABOUT STORMWATER RUNOFF
I
The Rivers Beneath Our Feet
Storm Sewers Storm Sewers
Where does the
Storm Sewer Go?
The water that enters
storm drains typically
carries pollutants such
as fertilizers, oil,
and leaves. Where
does it all go? . . .
It goes into your
nearby lake,
stream or wet-
land.
f you look in the street outside of your home or ofce and search the
parking lots around town, you will probably nd storm sewer inlets. Did
you ever wonder where they go?
A common misconception about storm sewers is that they go to a waste-
water treatment plant. This is not the case. Storm sewers transport stormwater
(rain and melting snow) to the nearest river, lake, stream or wetland.
Stormwater often contains materials found on streets and parking lots such
as oil, antifreeze, gasoline, soil, litter, pet wastes, fertilizers, pesticides, leaves
and grass clippings. When these materials enter lakes
and streams, they become pollutants that pollute the
water, kill sh and close beaches.
Lets follow STORMIE and see how storm sewers
provide a direct link between our daily
activities and water pollution in lakes,
streams, rivers and wetlands.
Follow the simple clean-water tips inside
and become part of the solution to
water quality problems.
To lake, river
or wetland
- Adopt and enforce erosion controI ordinances for
construction sites.
- Require stormwater controIs in aII new deveIopments.
- tnstaII stormwater controIs in existing areas where
stormwater is very poIIuted.
- tncrease spring and faII street sweeping.
- Require Ieaves and other yard wastes to be pIaced aIong
the curb for coIIection rather than in the gutter.
- Do not aIIow soiI, Ieaves or grass cIippings to accumuIate on your
driveway, sidewaIk or in the street.
- Do not use the storm sewer for disposing motor oiI, antifreeze,
pesticides, paints, soIvents, or other materiaIs.
- 5weep (do not wash) fertiIizer and soiI off driveways and waIkways
onto the Iawn. Any debris remaining on paved areas wiII quickIy be
washed into the nearest storm sewer during the next rainfaII.
- Minimize your use of de-icing materiaIs on sidewaIks and driveways.
- Dispose of pet wastes by fIushing themdown the toiIet or burying them.
With thousands of storm sewer inlets around town, stormwater is a major contibutor to
water pollution in urban areas. Although each storm sewer inlet contributes only a small
number of pollutants, when added together, pollution concentrations often exceed the
limits established for industries and wastewater treatment plants. If the pollutants entering
each of these inlets can be reduced, so will the pollution in local streams and lakes.

ccording to federal regulations, many cities and industries must reduce
water pollution from storm sewers. We can help by taking steps around
the home to increase the amount of water that soaks into the ground.
This reduces the amount of water owing into the street. Heres what
you can do:
For more information about stormwater pollution and what you can
do to reduce it, contact the Deparment of Natural Resources or your
county UW-Extension or Land Conservation ofce.
Plant trees, shrubs or ground covers.
Maintain a healthy lawn.
Redirect down spouts from paved areas to vegetated areas.
Install gravel trenches along driveways or patios.
Use porous materials such as wooden planks or bricks for
walkways and patios.
If building a new home, have the driveway and walkways
graded so water ows onto lawn areas.
Use a rain barrel to catch and store water for gardens.
Wash your car on the lawn, not the driveway, or take your
car to a commercial car wash.

Preschool open house
and registration January
10 at the John Michael
Kohler Arts Center
Imagine your young child learning and
exploring the world through an arts-based
curriculum in a nurturing, creative environ-
ment. The John Michael Kohler Arts Center
Preschool offers that and so much more.
Plan now to attend the open house 1-3 p.m.,
Sunday, Jan. 10, to meet with teachers, see
the classrooms, and learn more about this
state-certified and licensed program.
Our Preschool offers an early-childhood
experience like no other. said Joe Madeira,
deputy director for external affairs. The
Arts Centers exhibitions and performing
arts programs offer unique opportunities to
engage, inspire and teach young children.
Furthermore, while we are uniquely situated
to offer an arts experience that is beyond
compare, we also offer a fundamental skills
development curriculum that exceeds state
standards.
Separate programs for 3- to 4-year olds
and 4- to 5-year-olds are offered. The cur-
riculum for the younger students supports
early learning through the arts and fosters
childrens understanding of themselves,
their friends, and the world. Students can at-
tend either two or three mornings per week.
The curriculum for the 4- and 5-year-olds
builds on elements contained in the first year
and further emphasizes critical thinking and
kindergarten readiness. This older group of
students attends four mornings a week.
John Michael Kohler Arts Center Pre-
school teachers have diverse backgrounds in
the arts and education. Students enjoy light-
filled classrooms, art galleries, a performing
arts theater, ceramics and printmaking stu-
dios, a caterers kitchen, the historic John M.
Kohler house, and more. Special guests, in-
cluding performing and visual artists and
naturalists, and field trips such as visits to an
outdoor sculpture site, an apple orchard, the
farmers market, and other locations in our
communities, further complement the Arts
Center Preschool experience.
The John Michael Kohler Arts Center

school, certified and licensed through the
