The Stoughton High School gymnasium got a $118,280 makeover this summer, replacing the old wooden bleachers with new plastic bleachers. Construction, which
wrapped up July 3, lasted less than a month. The improvements allowed the gym to take care of a number of safety issues and now also features handicap seating.

When Vikings boys basketball coach Matt
Hockett walked into the Stoughton High
School gymnasium for the first time this sum-
mer, he just had to pick up camera.
After seeing the new bleachers the district fin-
ished installing last month, he couldnt wait to
share the new look with everyone he knew.
I grabbed my phone, started taking pictures and
sent them to everyone but Santa Claus with excite-
ment, he said.
After years of concerns about seating for individ-
uals with disabilities and general safety, the Stough-
ton Area School District opted to put up $118,280
this summer to update the facilitys seating.
A project that has been discussed for at least the
past couple of years, destruction of the old bleach-
ers began June 20, with construction for the 1,400
new seats being done by July 3.
Gone are the hard, wooden bleachers, replaced
by steel framing covered in more comfortable,
plastic-covered seats. Adding to the facilitys aes-
thetics, both bleachers have been painted in purple,
white and gray to spell out Vikings on one side and
SHS on the other.
The athletic department decided to push this con-
struction forward now in large part because of the
efforts of facilities and grounds conductor Dennis
Barkenhagen, who wasnt available this week for
comment. Stoughton athletic director Mel Dow
said Barkenhagen more or less spearheaded the
project.
Hes the real mastermind behind the entire
thing, with my suggestion that its something we
took care of, Dow said.

Upskirt photos lead
to felony charges
stoughton man up
for sexual assault for
cell phone shots
mark ignatowski
A 25-year-old Stoughton
man faces felony charges
of sexual assault after lewd
images of several victims
were found
on hi s cel l
p h o n e b y
St o u g h t o n
Police.
Dr e w T.
Pot t er was
charged with
t wo fel ony
c o u n t s o f
s e c o n d -
degree sexual assault, three
felony counts of capturing
an image of nudity without
consent and one misde-
meanor count of invasion of
privacy on July 23.
According to a criminal
complaint filed in Dane
County Circuit Court, an
investigation began July
1 after a woman reported
to police that she believed
Potter attempted to take
pictures up her skirt while
she was at Radio Shack in
Stoughton, where Potter
was employed.
According to the com-
plaint:
Police went to the store
and spoke wi t h Pot t er,
who admitted he attempted
twice to take pictures up
the womans skirt but was
unsuccessful. Video sur-
veillance at the store also
showed Potter attempting to
take the photos.
He offered his phone to
police to prove there were
no photos. Officers found
none during a search of
the phone, however, Pot-
ter consented to having
his phone scanned by the
police department.
A Stoughton police detec-
tive with computer forensic
analysis certification later
found more than 100 pho-
tos of other customers of
various ages, some appear-
ing to be underage, with
their buttocks area photo-
graphed, according to the
complaint.
The detective noted in the
complaint that there were
68 unknown images from
Potters phone of 50 differ-
ent female customers.
Police made contact with
one woman identified in
from store receipts and
photographs. The woman
began to cry when she was
shown the photographs and
said she felt violated.
The detective also found
other images of women
either passed out or sleep-
ing with the photographer
touching the women.
One victim said she had
been drinking with Potter
the night the photos she was
shown were taken. She said
she did not consent to hav-
ing the photos taken, nor
did she remember being
touched by Potter or having
the photos taken.
Another victim also start-
ed to cry when shown pho-
tos of herself taken from
Potters phone, according
to the complaint.
A third victim also stated
she had been drinking with
Potter in June at a bar in
Stoughton and had agreed
to be given a ride home by
him. According to the com-
plaint, the victim told police
that Potter was unable to
find her residence so he
offered to let her sleep on
his couch.
If convicted, Potter faces
more than 90 years in pris-
on based on maximum sen-
tencing guidelines in state
statutes.
Potter was released on
cash bond July 23 and was
ordered not to have any
contact with the victims,
online court records show.
Potter is scheduled for
an appearance Aug. 19 in
Dane County Circuit Court.

Stoughton police arrest-
ed a Madison man last
month for possession of
cocaine, a felony.
The man, Kevin Gill,
Jr., 30, was stopped by
police near U.S. Hwy. 51
and Pine Street in Stough-
ton after he was observed
speeding at about 40 mph
in a 25 mph zone, accord-
ing to a criminal complaint
filed in Dane County Cir-
cuit Court last month.
plaint:
While in pursuit of the
car around 11: 19 p. m.
on July 13, a Stoughton
police officer saw some-
thing get thrown out of
the passenger side win-
dow. Once the car was
stopped, Gills passenger
told police that he had
put something insider her
purse when he noticed the
squad car lights. Officers
observed a bag containing
crack cocaine. Gill then
told officers that he had
recently smoked a fifty
piece, a term for a $50
crack cocaine rock.
Accordi ng t o onl i ne

viously served three years
probation starting in 2001
after he pleaded guilty
to possessing cocaine in
Dane County.
If convicted, Gill faces
up t o t hree-and-a-hal f
years in prison.
Gill is scheduled for an
initial appearance in Dane
County Circuit Court on
Aug. 19.

I
f theres one thing teenagers
in Stoughton are good at, its
the act of spreading gossip,
good or bad.
Whenever any sort of news
breaks in our town, its almost
a foregone conclusion that, as a
teenager, you must tweet your
feelings about it. Revive your
comatose Facebook page and
write a clichd status.
This was
the case last
summer as
Stoughton High
School and the
community
grieved the loss
of two of our
classmates. It
happened again
a few weeks
ago, as the cur-
rent and former
students learned of the passing
of one of our teachers, Alona
Paydon.
Normally, I use caution when
first believing what I read
online from my classmates.
Some can be less than credible
at times, to put it nicely. But
as the rumors were confirmed
true, it began to hit me that one
of the teachers that had helped
changed my life for the better
was gone.
Alona Paydon was not only
my tech ed teacher for two
years, but also my seventh-
grade volleyball coach. Though
she might not have known it,
she taught me much more than
how to build a bridge of flimsy
wooden sticks and how to serve
a ball. The lessons she taught
me will carry with me for the
rest of my life.
Mrs. Paydons class taught me
more than building structure. It
taught me a sense of pride in my
work.
Her class was not my favorite,
simply because it frustrated me.
At the time, it was the one class
I had taken in my school career
that truly challenged me. It was
an unusual feeling, struggling
with a class, but the feeling of
pride I received when I finally
finished that bridge was surreal.
That pride faded a little after
we determined my structure
was the weakest in the class,
but that was another lesson: I
learned that at some point in
everyones life, theres going
to be something well discover
were terrible at. Thanks to her
class, I now know the chance of
me designing a building to grace
the New York skyline is little to
none.
Mrs. Paydons class also
taught me how to grow up and
be responsible. Responsibility
was required when people like
me had no one else to blame for
accidentally cutting our fingers
on the X-Acto knives for the
umpteenth time. It forced me to
own up to every mistake I made
in the building process.
In her class, we were also giv-
en freedom that was never seen
in other classes curriculum. It
was in her class that I made my
first personal email account,
and when people make jokes
about our generation regretting
the email usernames that they
created in their preteen years, I
should be a prime example.
Id like to believe that she
didnt see me messing around
making the account, but middle-
schoolers are not as sneaky as
they think they are. Mrs. Paydon
was an easy-going teacher like
that, and that characteristic was
one of many that made her a
favorite teacher of mine, despite
how I felt toward the class
itself.
Mrs. Paydons teachings
existed far past the classroom
and carried over to the vol-
leyball court. When my mother
allowed me to sign up for vol-
leyball, I had never played any
organized sport, so I was scared
and not sure what I was in for.
Coach Paydon made me feel a
sense of belonging on the team,
and she never looked down on
me as countless serves slammed
their way into the net rather
than sailing right over.
As we kept a divided record
of wins and losses, her attitude
remained a constant. She taught
the team to be gracious regard-
less of the outcome of the game
or the season, and she practiced
what she preached.
For me, the real tragedy in
Mrs. Paydons passing is that
I was only able to look back
and realize the sheer amount of
impact she had in my life now
that Ive lost my chance to show
my gratitude.
She was a fantastic teacher
and coach to me. On the court,
she treated me like an equal,
which led other kids to do the
same and really get to know me
for who I was. In the classroom,
I learned so much more than
how to glue (and reglue) pieces
of wood together; I got a taste
of what the real world was like.
I believe she did more for her
students in her teaching career
than she will ever know, and my
story is only one of thousands.

Is Water a Basic Human
Right?
Kofi Annan, the former Secretary General of
the United Nations put the issue concisely:
Access to safe water is a fundamental
human need and therefore a basic human
right. In the United States and in most
of the developed world we take water for
granted. We turn on the faucet and out
pours clean water, but in much of the devel-
oping world this is not the case. According
to the World Health Organization, over 2
billion people gained access to clean water
between 1990 and 2010, but roughly 11%
of the global population (783 million people)
still lacks access to clean water, and since
we cannot live for more than a few days
without water, this remains a pressing issue.
Three-thousand children die each day from
diarrheal illness, largely a result of not having
clean water. So what can we do about it? We
can start by donating to organizations which
help in this regard. Water.org is a charity
which works to bring clean water to these
communities struggling with clean water
issues. We should consider buying one of
their water bottles, which might save us
money on bottled water while supporting a
good cause.
Christopher Simon via Metro News Service
Everyone who drinks this water will be
thirsty again, but whoever drinks the water I
give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water
I give them will become in them a spring of
water welling up to eternal life.

With one race to go John-

Lamonte, and Sauter.
Casey Johnson worked his
way through the field and
passed Steve Rubeck on lap 11

Utica must now win
beat Stoughton, hope
for McFarland loss
JereMy JoneS
Sports editor
With two wins in a little over 24
hours, Utica went from being on the
outs in the Southeast Section to sud-
denly finding itself right back in the
thick of things.
Knocking off second-place McFar-
land last week, the As not only
helped themselves, but the fortune of
rival Stoughton, who despite a shut-
out loss to Orfordville remained tied
with the Muskies in second place.
Albion 9, Utica 5
Utica had a chance to force a three
way tie for the second and final play-
off spot for the west half of itsdivi-
sion Monday when the team traveled
to Edgertons Racetrack Park for a
make-up game against Albion.
The As failed to knock off the host
Tigers, however, falling 9-5.
Matt Ellingson went the distance
and took the loss for Utica, striking
out five. He allowed seven earned
runs on 15 hits and six walks.
Max Gartzke (2-for-3), Brad Ash-
more (2-for-4) and Doug Vike (2-for-
4) led Utica at the plate. Ashmore and
Vike both had a double in the loss.
Mike Nanstad picked up the win
for Albion, allowing no earned runs
over the final three innings.
The loss moved Utica into third-
place tie with the Tigers at 7-7 over-
all.
Utica hosts Stoughton (8-6) in
their annual Utica Fest tilt at 1 p.m.
Saturday. Stoughton and McFarland
are both tied at 8-6 overall.
McFarland can lockup the No. 2
seed with a win Sunday at Albion.
Stoughton would have to beat Utica
on Saturday and then have McFarland
lose on Sunday to reach the playoffs.
A tie between the Merchants and
McFarland would got to the Muskies,
who won both games head-to-head.
A Utica win Saturday and McFar-
land loss would vault the As into the
playoffs.
Utica 8, McFarland 2
Looking to pitch the As from
fourth into second place Sunday,
Kyle Bates went the distance in an
8-2 victory over second place McFar-
land.
Bates allowed two runs on seven
hits and struck out eight.
The host Muskies committed three
errors as Cory Schuchardt took the
loss, giving up four earned runs on 13
hits and two walks.
Andy Martin, Ashmore and Gartz-
ke all finished 2-for-4 at the plate.
Brad Knickmeier, Curtis Holverson
and Martin doubled in the win.

Failing to get down a bunt, missing
a sign and leaving 11 runners on base
against one of the best pitchers in the
Home Talent League was more than
Stoughton could overcome Sunday in
a 4-0 against Orfordville.
The Merchants threatened early in
the fifth as Justin Moore walked to
leadoff the inning. Pinch runner Brett
Quale was quickly cut down though
after Taylor Schmid failed to get
down a sacrifice bunt and eventually
hit into a 1-6-3 double play.
It was that kind of day for Stough-
ton.
Lefty Joe Lange took a no-hitter
into the sixth inning before Rory
Menzer lined a single to center fielder
with one out. The Merchants bas-
erunner was nullified due to miscom-
munication, though.
Failing to see manager Dale Sef-
fens had called off the sign, Menzer
was caught trying to steal second by
Orioles catcher Derek Cashore.
Stoughton collected two more hits
with one out in the seventh as Max
Fuller singled to shortstop before TJ
DiPrizio roped a double to the left-
field gap. Both would be stranded at
second and third, however, as Justin
Moore and Steve Pennekamp struck
out and lined out, respectively.
Walks to Tanner Klitzke and Men-
zer once again gave the Merchants
two runners on base with one out
in the eighth. Lange and the Ori-
oles once again got out of the inning
unscathed, though, as Sean Gerber
lined out to center and Wenzel was
doubled off first base.
Trailing 3-0, Stoughton saw the
Orioles load the bases with a pair of
one-out walks and a single before
Orfordville singled home the games
final run.
Overall, we played pretty good,
Seffens said. You just cant make
mistakes like that and hope to win
against a good team.
Lange struck out 10, reaching dou-
ble digits in the bottom of the ninth,
fanning Pennekamp with two runners
on base to end the game.
Stoughtons Ben Riffle tossed 7 1/3
innings, allowing two earned runs on
eight hits while walking three. Erick
Sperloen worked the final 1 2/3,
allowing one earned run on two sin-
gles and a walk.
Lange, the leading hitter in the
Southeast Section, collected his lone
hit in the second inning, singling off
DiPrizio. Zach Wisowaty singled
home the games first run before Pat
Moore was thrown out at home.
A lead-off double up the third base-
line by Trevor Wallace and a throw-
ing error by DiPrizio helped the Ori-
oles tack on a second run in the third
inning.
BJ Cook came around to score on
Pat Moores sacrifice fly after a lead-
off single in the right-field corner in
the sixth.
The loss dropped the Merchants
to 8-6 overall, while top-seeded
Orfordville improved to 13-1.
Stoughton managed to remain tied
for the second and final playoff spot
despite the loss as McFarland fell 8-2
at home against Utica (7-6).
Should the Merchants finish the
season tied with the Muskies, Stough-
ton would lose the tiebreaking having
dropped both games to McFarland.
Stoughton and the As square off
for their annual rivalry game Satur-
day at UticaFest.
Night League
Jake Wenzel and Max Fuller col-
lected a pair of hits and drove in two
runs last Thursday as Stoughton beat
Middleton 9-2 to remain atop the
Central Night League standings.
Pennekamp, Schmid and Justin
Moore each knocked in a run. Menzer
went the distance, scattering 11 hits.
Earlier in the week, the Merchants
defeated DeForest 5-0 on Tuesday
behind Neil Carneys two-hit shut
out.
Moore highlighted the game with
a three-run home run in the seventh
inning. He finished with four runs
knocked in. DiPrizio knocked in
Stoughtons other run.
The victories improved the Mer-
chants to 9-1. Middleton (8-1) and
Verona (8-2) rounded out the top
three.
Locked in a battle for the fourth
and final playoff spot, Ashton sits at
5-5, while four other teams are tied at
4-5 with make-up games still on their
schedules.

finale Thursday at 7 p.m.

method known as Budget-
ing for Outcomes three
years ago, and an important
part of the process is get-
ting citizen involvement.
In the first year of BFO,
the city had several resi-
dents join whats called
results teams. Citizens
were not recruited last year
for the teams. The city
plans to include them in the
results teams every other
year.
The results teams par-
ticipation is very, very
early in the process, Olson
explained. They help to
identify what the results
will be. I guess thats why
they call it a results team.
She sai d she cal l ed
probably 30 different peo-
ple trying to enlist their
participation, but could
find only a handful will-
ing to make the commit-
ment. Participants attend
four three-hour meetings,
in addition to reading lots
of documents on their own
prior to a meeting in late
August or early Septem-
ber when the teams give a
presentation to the Com-
mon Council on how they
ranked the various offers.
How offers are ranked
determines what services
the city can provide, and
which ones may have to be
cut.
I tried to find people
from different sections of
the community, as well as
different demographics of
the community, the mayor
said. I have been success-
ful in getting one person
for each of four teams this
year. To me, that speaks to
the fact that the process is
very labor-intense, which
is the way it should be.
I mean, you cannot take
budgets too lightly. Its a
very important process that
were going through.
In order to get more citi-
zen involvement, Olson
sai d she appoi nt s ci t y
employees to results teams
and asks them to wear
their citizen hats.
I try to put them on a
different results team than
their department offers go
to, she said. That kind of
makes them think outside
the box a little bit.
BFO is different from the
traditional line-item meth-
od of budgeting in that the
citys various departments
make proposals, or offers,
for specific items and ser-
vices they feel they need to
accomplish their goals.
They are required to jus-
tify those offers, and one
of the tasks of the results
teams is to rank and priori-
tize those requests.
Once offers are ranked,
the council considers, with
the help of staff, how much
money is available to allo-
cate for different services.
Offers with higher pri-
ority are said to be above
the cutoff line and those of
lower rank fall below the
line.
Olson said its important
to involve citizens in the
process because they are
the customers of the city.
Theyre the ones that
receive the services of the
city, she noted. And if
were looking at not doing
things (services) weve
done in the past, its impor-
tant to know how they feel
about that.
Theyre the users of our
services. If we cant pro-
vide something any longer,
we need to have their input
on that. And ultimately
they are the taxpayers. Its
their money that were
using to provide the ser-
vices.
By appointing employ-
ees to a results team other
than the ones their depart-
ment offers go to, Olson
hopes to enables them to
wear their citizen hat
because theyre learning
about the other offers, and
that requires training.
Each year we want to
bring folks in and remind
them that the task is to
read and thoroughly review
each of the offers, priori-
tize them according to the
citys strategic plan, and
then as a group they have
to get together and form a
consensus and bring that
final priority forward, she
explained.
And t he y do t ha t
wi t h o u t a n y d o l l a r s
attached on the first round.
Then after that first session
is complete, they go back
and get together and look
at how the dollars are allo-
cated to the four different
priority areas and where
we run out of money.
The results teams are
then expected to make a
collaborative recommen-
dation about priorities and
offers.
Do they not fund one of
the offers, or do they look
to make changes in many
of the offers that are above
the line in order to bring
others up, so that every-
thing gets funded to a cer-
tain extent?
Thats always the hard
decision each year, Olson
said. And its going to be
harder this year.
She said Dane County
and the state have been
shifting costs that they pre-
viously helped pay for to
the local municipalities.
For example, the coun-
ty has just proposed that
insurance that they have
always provided for our
EMS and ambulance ser-
vice now be covered by
the city, Olson said.
(That is) on top of the
fact that our dollars dont
get any bigger to work
with due to levy limits
but yet the cost of things
increases, Olson said. So
that constraint on city bud-
gets means that we may not
be able to provide the same
services that we have in the
past.

t he pl an dr awn up by
parks maintenance super-
visor Sean Brusegar on a
9-2 vote. Alds. Paul Law-
rence, Ron Christianson,
Eric Hohol, Tom Majew-
ski, Sonny Swangstu, Tim
Swadley, Tom Selsor, Tri-
cia Suess and David Knee-
bone voted in favor of the
resol ut i on, whi l e Al ds.
Greg Jenson and Michael
Engelberger opposed it.
There was little discus-
si on about t he pl an or
the larger issue of using
chemicals to control weed
growth, which had been
the topic of considerable
debate at the committee
level.
Engel berger (Di st . 2)
introduced the resolution
but refused t o move t o
approve it because he felt
it was a public safety issue.
He commended Brusegar
and streets superintendent
Karl Manthe for their work
on the plan, but said it does
not go far enough toward a
compromise with Naturally
Stoughton, a group that
formed to oppose using
chemicals.
The group came i nt o
existence in late March and
organized several public
education meetings on pes-
ticide use. It presented a
petition to the council with
almost 600 signatures in
support of its position.
But the majority agreed
with Manthe and Mayor
Donna Olson that the citys
parks and recreation fields
had become shabby and
in some places overgrown
with weeds. They argued
the weeds posed a safety
threat to athletes and pre-
sented the city in a nega-
tive light when compared
to neighboring communi-
ties.
Ald. Swadley (Dist. 1)
said prior to the vote that
he would support the plan
because we dont have
a turf management plan
now. He added that the
pl an can be l ooked at
every year and be amend-
ed if necessary.
The plan calls for a year-
ly weed density assessment
for each park, athletic field
and other city property.
It says herbicides will be
considered only when the
quality of turf for an area
does not meet the estab-
lished standards and all
other methods to improve
the turf quality are ineffec-
tive or cost prohibitive.
It also says that prefer-
ence will be given to non-
chemical means of control-
ling turf growth when and
where appropriate.
The plan places every
ci t y propert y i n one of
three categories that allow
for differing levels of tol-
erance for weeds, based on
percentages of weed den-
sity.
Af t er t he vot e, Al d.
Gr eg Jenson ( Di st . 3)
said he voted against the
plan because it allows for
the use of poison, and
it doesnt belong on our
lawns and it doesnt belong
anywhere near where our
children are playing.
He said the manage-
ment plan itself is fine,
although he would have
liked to see something in
the plan that would explain
how theyre going to get
away from using chemi-
cals.
It doesnt have that,
Jenson said.
Mayor Olson said she
was pleased with the way
the city handled the issue.
I would like to com-
mend Karl and Sean for
all the work that they did
working with the Naturally
Stoughton group and our
council to bring forward
a better turf management
plan than weve had in the
past, she said.
I think this plan really
addresses everyones needs
in a way that makes it man-
ageabl e and feasi bl e t o
going forward.

Audrey J. Smith
Audrey J. Smith died
Wednesday, July 24, at
her home at Pr i mr ose
Retirement Community sur-
rounded by her family.
Audrey was born in Edg-
erton, Wis., daughter of
Alfred and Helga Fegges-
tad on June 26, 1928. She
graduated from Stoughton
High School, attended the
University of Wisconsin in
Madison and worked in the
business office at Univer-
sity Hospital. It was there
that she met a third year
medi cal st udent named
Burt on K. Smi t h. They
were married in Madison
on June 15, 1950, 6 months
after they met. After B.K.s
Internship at Cleveland
City Hospital, they moved
to Wausau where Burton
began his medical practice.
She gave birth to her three
children between 1952 and
1956 and always thorough-
ly enjoyed being a mother
and wife.
As a member of the First
United Methodist Church in
Wausau, Audrey was very
active in Christian educa-
tion. Over the years, she
taught almost all grades at
church school and became
Chairperson and Super-
intendent of Study. In the
1960s, she became one of
the original members of the
Ecumenical Lay Academy.
This group of religious
leaders in the community
sponsored Prayer Days
and Church School events
for people of all faiths in
Wausau.
Audrey had a great pas-
sion to volunteer and give
to others in need. As Chair-
person of the Mission Com-
mittee at First United Meth-
odist Church, she helped
organi ze Meal s for t he
Hungry with other churches
in the community. She also
volunteered at North Cen-
tral Health Care Facility to
help the developmentally
delayed and mentally ill.
For over 20 years, Audrey
was also active in the Unit-
ed Way sponsored Mobile
Meals Program. She served
on its Board for 17 years.
In the late 1970s, when
the Hmong of Laos started
immigrating to Wausau,
Audreys church was inter-
ested in sponsoring fami-
lies. Just like her Mom and
Dad, arriving in the USA
years earlier, we had new
Americans arriving with
all the same hopes and
promises. Audrey helped
to guide these families as
they became acclimated to
their new lives in America.
She treated them like they
were her own family. She
worked with North Central
Technical College to estab-
lish the first Hmong Pre-
school in the area.
In 2010, Audrey was
t he reci pi ent of one of
the YWCAs Women of
Vision Awards. Her long-
time friend Barbara Hun-
ger nominated her for this
award because of Audreys
long history of volunteering
and giving to others in the
community.
Audrey is survived by
her daughter Susan (Gary
) Davis and children Kyle
(Fiancee Salena Salfen)
Davis, Tyler Davis, and
Amy Davis; her daughter
Cynthia Smith and child
Abigail Smith; and her son
Dr. Brian (Jane) Smith and
children Bradley (Mary)
Smi t h, Dani el (Fi ancee
Sophi a Ruff-Berganza)
Smith, Phillip Hanke, and
Jacob Hanke. She is also
survived by her brothers
Cl i fford Feggest ad and
Rol l i e ( Bet t y Seamon-
son) Feggestad; and sisters
Yvonne (Al) Herlitzka and
Nina Barker. Audrey will
also be missed by many
nieces, nephews, cousins,
and many friends.
Audrey was preceded
in death by her parents,
her husband, Burton of 55
years, sisters Irene Hardie
and Ruth (Lloyd) Stokstad;
brothers Delaine Fegges-
tad and Arden Feggestad;
and sister-in-law Ardyce
Feggestad.
A service celebrating the
life of Audrey Smith was
held at 4 p.m. on Sunday,
July 28, at First United
Met hodi st Church, 903
Third St. , Wausau. The
Rev. Gerald Morris and
Rev. Donald Dinsmore will
officiate. Visitation was
held from 2 p.m. until the
time of the service at the
church on Sunday.

whelmingly helpful and
kind nurses, administra-
tion, and staff at Primrose
Retirement Community, as
well as the staff of Inter-
im Hospice and Palliative
Care. With the support of
these people and family,
Audrey was able to remain
in her home throughout the
final days of her illness.
Audreys wish was to
have her body donated to
the University Of Wiscon-
sin School Of Medicine and
Public Healths Anatomy
Department.

Solving problems
The equipment itself was
extremely old, having been
installed in the early 1960s.
But the more urgent reason
was to bring the facility into
compliance with the most
recent Americans with Dis-
abilities Act.
Prior to the construction,
there was no seating for indi-
viduals in wheelchairs and
the mobility for individuals
with disabilities was very
limited. Spectators in wheel-
chairs were often pushed
next to the bleachers the
only space where their chairs
would fit. However, that area
was also the access points for
team locker rooms.
Now, if the 12 new retract-
ed seats arent being used,
they can be pulled back out
and used for general seating.
The other factor that Dow
said prompted the construc-
tion was the all-around safety
concern of how close the
bleachers were to the field
of play on both sides of the
gym.
Anyone who attended
one of those playoff games
last year could see, when
the gym is full, people were
actually walking on the court
during the game, Dow said.
Thats a safety concern for
both players and fans.
I n t h e p r e v i o u s
configuration, players sat in
the front row of the bleach-
ers.
Dow said there was one
game last year in which a
family entered the gym dur-
ing a game and walked in
front of both benches and the
scorers table before the step-
ping up into the bleachers. In
that case, the younger child
stopped in front of the team
and caused a significant dis-
traction.
In order to prevent similar
incidents, the bleachers were
moved back between 5
and 6 feet from the court on
both sides.
New setup
The concern with the
reconfiguration was always
how many seats would be
lost.
However, by eliminating
the middle section on the
east side of the gym (behind
the scorers table) and also
expanding up on the balcony
(covering what used to be the
door for hauling wrestling
mats in/out of the wrestling
room), Stoughton was able to
keep its new capacity within
30 seats of the previous set-
up.
Meanwhile, the true capac-
ity will actually increase,
since the teams will no lon-
ger sit in the front row and
the scorers table wont take
up parts of the first three
rows.
You figure there youre
probably losing 40 or 50
seats just by using those,
Dow said.
Bleachers throughout the
district are inspected yearly
and average between
$3,000-6,000 in mainte-
nance fees, Barkenhagen
said.
Opting for plastic in place
of wood, Stoughton hopes
to cut those costs and fig-
ures it will be able to replace
12-inch sections rather than
20-foot planks when repairs
are necessary.
As the Vikings head into
basketball season, players,
coaches and the scorers
table will be placed in fold-
ing chairs in that space on
the court, allowing fans to
walk behind them and still
access the front row.
Now that we are putting
them all in chairs, all those
spots will be available for
fans, Dow said.
Screening will also be
installed to keep individuals
from going under the bleach-
ers.
WSTO, which had previ-
ously broadcasted from the
balcony, will be moved to the
east side of the gym where a
space will be utilized in place
of the curtain that used to be
behind the scorers table. Its
a move that also gives indi-
viduals more space on the
balcony.
Preserving memories
Though hes excited about
the new setup, Hockett
admitted to being somewhat
sentimental.
I am extremely thankful
for what we, and for that mat-
ter, all Stoughton teams were
able to accomplish while the
old wooden bleachers were
in place, he said.
To that end, Hockett was
able to collect the teams
old bench, which he had the
bleacher crew put aside for
while they were taking out
the old bleachers.
The team will look to hang
a piece of the old wooden
bench in its locker room, so
a piece of the past and all
the great players who played
in the gym, will always be
remembered.
I think the gymnasium
reflects not only the recent
success of the boys basket-
ball program, but the suc-
cess of all athletic programs
at SHS, and something our
community should be very
proud of, Hockett said.
High school gymnasiums,
both in and out of Stough-
ton, are showcase venues
for school districts and their
coinciding athletic programs,
and I dont know of a bet-
ter one right now than the
one on Lincoln Avenue in
Stoughton.

about 62 mor e, r epr e-
sent a continuation of the
entertainment at what has
become one of the Mid-
wests premiere performing
arts venues.
Tickets for the new sea-
son go on sale at 9 a.m.
Monday, Aug. 5 t o t he
Friends of the Opera House
and Monday, Aug. 19, to
the general public. But by
the later date, a few of the
most popular shows may
already be sold out.
Among those few will
likely be singer-songwriter
Rickie Lee Jones, who is
scheduled to perform Nov.
21.
She was a recommen-
dation from an audience
member, explained events
coordinator Christina Doll-
hausen. Once in a while
well get agents who rec-
ommend musicians who
are coming through the area
and would be good at the
Opera House, or theyve
heard of the Opera House
and will seek us out.
It was one of those,
she said. We did a little
research and were able to
book her.
Shes actually going to
be fantastic in our space,
predicted Bill Brehm, direc-
tor of the Opera House.
He and Dollhausen are
the driving force behind
t he venue, schedul i ng
all the shows themselves
and catering to the needs,
desires and sometimes
egos of the many per-
f or mer s who come t o
Stoughton.
The Opera House has
gained such popularity in
the past seven years that
last year it sold more than
1,000 tickets the first day
they went on sale.
Brehm said that volume
of sales caused some tech-
nical glitches, which he
believes have been rectified
this year.
I t hi nk weve come
up with a solution thats
going to simplify things
for people, and hopefully
if theyre going to buy tick-
ets online theyll go to our
website and review some
of the information about
how things are going to
be a little bit different this
year, he said. It should be
easier.
The shows
Brehm and Dollhausen
say there is not an exact
science behind whom they
book to perform. But they
are pleased with the out-
come.
Thi s year s schedul e
reflects a diverse array
of per f or mer s, t al ent s
and genres: j azz, rock,
bluegrass, classical, inter-
national, folk and country.
There are bands, solo
musicians, authors, comedi-
ans and thespians even an
animal act.
Some shows could be
described as campy
comedian Emo Phillips, the
Amazing Acro-Cats and the
Grandmothers of Invention
(a spin-off of the original
band that backed Frank
Zappa).
Others represent high
art. Handels Messiah is
being presented by the Wis-
consin Chamber Orchestra
and will feature a 50-mem-
ber choi r. The St ough-
ton Chamber Singers will
return to perform Blow,
Blow, Thou Winter Wind.
And Opera for the Young
will present The Barber of
Seville in March.
Some artists are making
a first appearance, some are
returning after many per-
formances here. Some are
local, some national and
some international.
We l ooked at some
of the acts weve had in
the past that have done
real well, but also that we
thought had put on really
good shows and that we
enjoyed working with,
Brehm said. We called
them and asked if they
would like to come back
around. Then we also have
been getting lots of recom-
mendations from patrons
and other artists, and so we
look into those.
And then of course we
tap into our own musical
tastes and interests, he
added, and come up with
what in the end is usually
surprisingly well balanced,
because while youre put-
ting it together you dont
quite know if its going to
turn out the way that you
would hope.
Dollhausen said she gets
kind of excited about each
and every one of them
when she looks at the list of
performers.
Bill and I put a lot of
thought into each one, she
said. Theres something
new, something old, some-
thing familiar Im proud
of it.
More to come
Although theyve already
booked some 66 shows,
Brehm and Dol l hausen
arent done for the season.
We may be announcing
an addi t i onal seri es of
shows beyond our regu-
lar series, and maybe even
some f i l m pr ogr ams,
Brehm said. I think theres
more yet to come. I think
well almost certainly be
adding a bluegrass series,
but its still in the works.
Were working with people
to see if we can add anoth-
er three or four shows in a
bluegrass series.
He said the Opera House
now has a projector that
will allow the venue to
do film presentations and
were planning on moving
in that direction a little bit.
If last year is any indica-
tion, there will be other big
names who get added to the
roster late in the season,
as happened last year with
Lucinda Williams.
Regar dl es s , t her e i s
plenty of talent coming to
Stoughton in the next nine
months.
Im pretty pleased with
the schedule, Brehm said.

Stars: Familiar acts, new performers slated for 2013-14 Stoughton Opera House season
SOH personal favorites
While they strive to please the Friends of the
Opera House and the general public, Bill Brehm
and Christina Dollhausen have their entertainment
preferences, of course.
For Brehm, that includes the Canadian trio The
Wailin Jennys, who will perform twice Nov.
15-16 and the Americana performer Pokey
LaFarge, whos scheduled to appear with his band
Dec. 6.
Brehm is also excited about bringing another
Canadian, Harry Manx, back to the Opera House.
He sort of combines Indian/Eastern musical
techniques and instrumentation with a blues
sensibility, Brehm explained. Its really interesting
music.
Brehm said hes also looking forward to seeing
and hearing the Cowboy Junkies another
Canadian act as well as the inimitable Rickie Lee
Jones.
Dollhausen counts among her most eagerly
awaited performers the duo of Tim OBrien and
Darrell Scott, who are booked on Sept. 28.
Weve had Darrell Scott and Tim OBrien here
separately, she noted. The last time that Darrell
Scott was here I picked up one of his CDs, and for
me its one of the most perfect sounding recordings
Ive ever heard. The harmonies are spot on and of
course the musicianship is out of this world.
She described Sara Jarosz as an amazing
virtuoso musician that will draw a nice big crowd.
Jarosz at 22 a relative newcomer who is
studying at the New England Conservatory of Music
thrilled the audience last year and is likely to do it
again on Oct. 12.

The gypsy-swing band Caravan of Thieves, above, is slated to take the Stoughton Opera House stage
Sept. 27. The band fuses gypsy jazz rhythms, acoustic guitars, upright bass and violin with mes-
merizing vocal harmonies and fantastic stories, according to the groups website.
Vocalist Rickie Lee Jones comes to the Stoughton Opera House
