From the Editor-news and notes

Its a rainy weekend in the northwoods and a quiet one at that too. Not much going on to be out and about
seeing the last bit of the changing of the colors. Its a stay inside, cuddled up watching old/or new movies
or, reading a good book.
RIP Maureen OHare, You dont have to be Irish to have enjoyed watching the many movies Maureen
appeared in. She passed away on Oct 24th at 95 yrs old. Being of Irish decent means Ive probably
watched every movie she was in more than once, and then some. Ive kept up with her Facebook page
where she would often post pictures of herself with other notable performers such as John Wayne. The funny notes about what she
did during takes and her life.
In passing; America, and here at home, we have lost many wonderful friends and family. Our thoughts and prayers to you all. And, to those whose
lives were lost in the recent accidents, tornados, fires and floods.
Get Well Wishes to all of our friends and neighbors.

NOCTA Appreciation Dinner Held
Volunteers of the NOCTA, Northern Oconto County Trout Alliance, were treated to a
thank you dinner October 3 at the McCauslin Brook Country Club in Lakewood.
Hosted by the Lakewood Area Chamber of Commerce, the dinner was attended by 27
of the 30-some volunteers who have been vital in the operation of the Trout Rearing
Station in Lakewood this summer.
Short historyefforts to revitalize the Trout Rearing Station had been forming over
the past several years with its realization coming this past June when 14,900 Brook Trout were delivered to the facility. A core
committee, with Scott Vanlanen at the head, put together a commitment with the DNR, gathered and scheduled volunteers, and the
results have been amazing. Of the 14,900 trout, only about 120 were lost, a truly astounding result! Distribution of the fish will happen toward the end of October with all of them going to local waters.
The project has been so well-received and successful that it will be done again in 2016 with an increase of nearly 10,000 fingerlings, including 4200 Brown Trout.
Many thanks to Scott Vanlanen for all his efforts with this very worthwhile project, also to Mark Soletske of Mighty Fine Sports for
the great appreciation gifts and to Dama Plumbing for their contribution of door prizes.

Its that time again! We started revamping the entire store for my favorite time of year.Christmas! It takes almost a month for the
makeover. Trees, trees and more trees! New merchandise, new ornaments and new everything. I have big plans for the outside this
year too (like always).
We have our Annual Christmas Open House on Small Business Saturday, November 28 th. There will be wine tasting, door prizes,
big sales and refreshments. Come hang out at Flowers Galore during our Christmas extravaganza. Small Business Saturday is an
initiative to encourage people to shop small businesses instead of the big box retail stores. Spread the word: Shop Small For All.
Because when you Shop Small this Nov 28, the money you spend in the community can stay in the community.
I attended a school board meeting this past month and a lady who sat beside me chose to speak about her concerns regarding the
new classrooms and the new way of doing things. She started saying she has a concern about no desks in first grade and she
was cut short by the school board president saying they wouldnt answer any questions regarding this. The problem was- this lady
never even had the opportunity to ask a question. She didnt even have the opportunity to speak a full sentence before being interrupted. Needless to say, the lady left in tears. On behalf of our school district, I would like to extend a sincere apology for the actions of one board member. There are a lot of people willing to listen and help. I am sorry this ladys first school board meeting was
such a bad experience. This is not what Wabeno is all about and I am sad we are getting a bad reputation for the way meetings are
conducted and that the meetings have resulted in such negativity, especially if someone expresses a different view or a concern that
doesnt go along with the new way of doing things. Not everything is moonlight and roses and people have a right to voice concerns. Our board meetings used to be full of interaction and mutual respect. I remember going in front of the school board when I
was 20, and even if we didnt see eye to eye on the subject at hand, Dirk VanDuzee, Edith Huettl, Tom Haberstein, etc. were still
always willing to listen to our opinions and our views. They really took everything you said into consideration and treated it like a
true democracy. And when you left the meeting, they never held it against you if you didnt agree with them. When you ran into
them a week later, you still heard a friendly and respectful hello. They all kept professional attitudes and never made it into anything personal. What has happened in Wabeno? Thank you to the current board members who have that same openness and professionalism and who are willing to listen to concerns. We appreciate you.
Per request, I will be posting all board meeting videos on a YouTube page in the near future since many people cant make it to the
meetings but always ask what is going on. I think I may even be
able to stream it live if all goes well. I figured since all the students now do the majority of their work on computers, we should
also bring the board meetings up to par via technology. The next
school board meeting is Wednesday November 4th at 6:30 pm in
the Elementary School 6:30 PM
Thank you to Pat Manthey who made a statement to me that she
will be doing everything she can to bring back cursive writing in
our schools. Rhinelander schools are moving forward with making
cursive writing a bigger part of their classrooms too. Kudos!
Make it a beautiful month everyone and be kind to one another.

Seek first to recognize truth. We have all

been given the will to choose and to think for
ourselves and not be puppets. Some of us
can choose to stand up and speak up
against something without fear of repercussion. Others dont have that option. Some
choose to sit back, stay silent and conform
out of fear or the need to feel important.
Change is easy when its in the best interest
of those involved. Its admitting you are
wrong that seems to be difficult for some.

"Red Arrow Snowmobile ATV Club, headquartered in

Townsend, is in the process of writing its history," says newly
-elected Red Arrow President Gary Wagner. "In that regard, I
have directed our Recording Secretary Kari Hinkens and

committee." Mary has recruited Rhonda Kroll, Kathleen
Marsh, Sandy Wagner, and Therese Erler. The group meets to
continue already established goals, procedures, and assign
duties.
"Red Arrow turns 47 this year," said Stehula. "So much has
happened since the club was officially founded in 1968. Our
committee's goal is to gather information to document our
past 47 years and then update each year going forward. We
would like to publish a detailed accounting of Red Arrow's
first 50 years in 2018."

National Guard and

Reserve
Mobilized as of May 5, 2015
The Department of Defense announced an increase in activated
National Guard and reserve component members this week for the
Army National Guard, Army Reserve and Air National Guard while
the Navy Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, and Air Force Reserve
announced a decrease of activated members. Coast Guard Reserve
numbers did not change from last week. The net collective result is
an increase of 292 activated National Guard and reserve component
members in comparison to last week.
At any given time, services may activate some units and individuals
while deactivating others, making it possible for these figures to
either increase or decrease. The total number currently on active
duty from the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 14,438;
Navy Reserve, 2,741; Marine Corps Reserve, 954; Air National
Guard and Air Force Reserve, 5,732; and the Coast Guard Reserve,
209. This brings the total National Guard and reserve component
personnel who have been activated to 24,074, including both units

Prospect Lodge of Lakewood and

their customers are very generous
people. They came with a vehicle
filled with school supplies for the
students at Wabeno Elementary (We
shared some with the high schoolers!). These people have come to
our school with a bounty of goodies
for our students for the last few
years which helps in ways most
can't even imagine. We thank these
people from the bottom of our hearts
for thinking of the students each and
every year by doing this wonderful
community service project. We
appreciate your generosity and so
does the students at Wabeno Elementary. Shown in the picture is

A Word or Two From Dr. Adam

Nutrition Advice for a Healthy New You
What Can You Do?
Lifestyle Changes

Exercise at least 20 to 30 minutes three or four days a week.

Eat out more sparingly. Food preparation methods in restaurants often involve high amounts-and the
wrong types-of fat and sugar.
Brown-bag your lunch to control your fat and sugar content while adding nutritious fruits, vegetables, and
grains.
Limit your intake of alcohol and quit smoking. Drinking alcohol excessively and/or smoking hinder your
body's ability to absorb nutrients from your food.
Dietary Changes

Thanks to you, the public this year, Northern Perks Coffee and Gift Shop is closing in on
$3000 dollars in donations and percentage of money from purchases to go to the Oconto
Humane Shelter. This money collected goes to provide food and
items for the fidos and fluffies at the shelter. The donation jar will
still be at the register to take your generous donations if you visit
them.
Want to make a donation at the shelter? Call them direct. 920-835-1738 is there
number. Their address is 150 South Katch drive, Oconto. A call to them and
they will tell you what is needed. Of course a cash donation is accepted. But,
they need other things too. Food, cat litter, bedding, bleach are just a few of the
things that are usually needed. Their hours open vary day to day, so call before going. All the animals
will be grateful for your donation.
Hunting is starting in the area. Protect your fido from accidental
harm. Do not ever let him or her to wander from your yard. Use
bright orange collars or leashes and you yourself were bright orange outer wear too. Lets all be safe out there hunters and fido
owners. Oh yeah, happy Thanksgiving too.

Eat more raw foods. Cooking and canning destroys much of the nutrition in foods. With the exception of canned tomatoes, which can help prevent
prostate cancer,1 fresh or frozen fruits and vegetables always have more natural vitamins and minerals.
Select organically grown foods when possible,
because they have lower amounts of toxic elements,
such as pesticides and heavy metals.
Consume 25 to 30 grams of fiber a day. Wholegrain breads and cereals, beans, nuts, and some
fruits and vegetables are good sources of fiber.
High-fiber diets can help prevent digestive disorders, heart disease, and colon cancer.
Drink eight to ten 8-ounce glasses of water a
day. Coffee, tea, soft drinks, and alcohol are dehydrators. Don't substitute them for water.

A new school year has begun and everyone is getting into the routine of things again. Part of getting back into the routine is remembering to help us help our students by recycling and sending the
items to school with your child, grandchild, or neighbor. Miss
Stefanovic has added a couple of new things to the recycling list.
Sunny D and Fruit 2 O labels are new to the list. Any and all drink
pouches can be
saved and sent to
school for us to
cash in on. Kellogg's Family Rewards can be found
in the inside of the
boxes of Kellogg's
products BUT they
are starting to faze
the codes out so if
you can also send in
your cash register
receipt with the
price of the Kellogg's item circled as
they take those along with the codes. Betty Crocker Box Tops for
Education is an excellent recycling item for us as so many products
have them on them. It is not just Betty Crocker products. They are
on a variety of things from cake mixes and fruit snacks to copy
paper and tissues or even underwear! Just check that packaging
before throwing it out to help out the school. Coca Cola rewards
are inside the boxes of Coke products with cans OR you can save
the caps from your Coke bottles. You can send in your used inkjet
and laser jet printer cartridges for us to recycle for you. Country
Hearth and Village Hearth bread products have a program for the
schools to earn credit from their UPCs. Milk Straws are a fun
product that kids love to use. They are a plastic 'straw' filled with
flavoring that kids (or any age) can mix into their milk and the really
nice thing about them is that Wabeno Elementary recycles the
package from them! Kwix Trip has Milk Moola written on their
bottle caps and on the strips from their bag milk...and we recycle
those also. Finally, any and all Campbell's Family of products UPCs/points can be brought in or saved to give that special student
you know from the elementary school for the annual Campbell
Label Games that we have as a competition between classes. The
students bring the Campbell's products UPCs/points in a bag with
their name and grade level marked on it. All of the points are
counted up and the two classes with the most play in the label
games in March. So start saving now for your students. Thank you
for helping us at Wabeno Elementary use your garbage to help the
students by getting items from these companies that we can use in
our learning environments!

The American Diabetes Association Celebrates 75

Years of Progress

For our 75th anniversary, the American Diabetes Association is honoring decades of
progress in diabetes treatment, management
and quality of life, and our role in these advancements.
For nearly 25 years, we have held Step Out:
Walk to Stop Diabetes and Tour de Cure
in communities across the country. Together
these signature events raised more than $30
million in 2014 to support our mission.

Just as importantly, our walks and rides promote physical activity and celebrate people
who live with diabetesour Red Striders
and Red Riders, who receive VIP treatment
at the events.
Throughout 2015, the Association will create greater awareness of the seriousness of
diabetes by acknowledging past discovery
and improvement, while focusing on work
that still needs to be accomplished. Join us to
celebrate and to help Stop Diabetes.
