The Marathon County Department of Social Services

has seen the number of people
receiving FoodShare benefits
drop by 3 percent following
implementation of a new state
rule that requires able bodied, childless recipients either
work, volunteer, get substance
treatment or enroll in a training program.
Department
spokesperson
Jane Huebsch reported the
county had 14,300 people receiving FoodShare benefits
in August. As of October, she
said, that number has declined
by 488 to 13,812 beneficiaries.
Federal law has always required FoodShare recipients
to work, but has allowed states,
such as Wisconsin, to waive
that requirement. A state law
has canceled the waiver.
New rules effective in April,
said Huebsch, require adult,
childless FoodShare recipients
to work 30 hours per week or
enroll in a training program

THE RECORD-REVIEW

Opinion/Editorial

Maybe you are wrong

According to the Pew Research Center, just about the same percentage of American conservatives have received a major government entitlement during their lifetime as liberals. The percentage
is 57 percent for conservatives, 53 percent for liberals. Yet, the two
camps dont agree at all whether government assistance to individuals is a good way to spend taxpayers money. Its a key disagreement
in an increasingly polarized America.
Take, FoodShare, for instance. The Pew Research Center reports 17
percent of both American liberals and conservatives have benefited
from the food assistance program. Conservatives, however, argue
that the program creates dependency and subsidizes laziness. They
support work requirements for FoodShare recipients. Liberals, on
the other hand, argue that a persons basic needs must be met before
he or she can be independent. They oppose tighter restrictions on
FoodShare eligibility.
So, who is right? The liberals? The conservatives?
New data out of Marathon County suggests that nobody has the
exact answer.
Starting this year, Wisconsin joined an increasing number of
states to require that able-bodied childless adults find work or lose
their FoodShare benefits.
Here, in Marathon County, the work requirement seems to have an
impact.
Back in August, the county had 14,300 people on FoodShare. By
September, when the work requirement went into effect, the number had fallen by 257 people. In October, the number of FoodShare
recipients had dropped another 231 people to 13,812. The two-month
drop of 488 people represents a decrease of 3.4 percent in the county
program.
Now, is this a good thing? A bad thing?
Its hard to know. The private firm that manages the countys FoodShare Training and Employment Program (FSTEP) reports that 110
FoodShare recipients in Marathon County have been directed to
work since April.
This means that work requirements were theoretically effective
for one person out of four. Three out of four FoodShare recipients,
however, have elected to go without the government-provided nutrition.
The numbers parallel state trends. The Department of Health and
Human Services reports that, while nearly 15,000 able-bodied, childless adult Food Share recipients were trimmed from the FoodShare
program statewide since September, only about 4,500 people have received FSTEP employment.
What we have is a messy result. The work requirement apparently
does encourage employment, but at the cost of denying nutrition to
poor, albeit able-bodied adults. One wonders, then, what these people denied FoodShare will do to eat. Sell drugs for money? Engage in
prostitution? Raid a relatives refrigerator? Rely on community food
pantries? And one wonders, too, about the long-term consequence
of not getting aid. Consider the case of a man or woman who, while
poor, cant work the required 20 hours a week to qualify for FoodShare because he or she is obligated to take sick parents to the hospital for cancer treatments. FoodShare may have been the one thing
keeping that persons world from blowing apart. And now it is gone.
To qualify for FoodShare, a single individual must earn less than
a gross income of $1,276 a month. Thats the equivalent of working
full-time (40 hours) at $7.97 per hour. The FoodShare benefit is worth
$195 a month.
The states new rules can hardly be considered harsh or particularly punitive. The regulations only require that able-bodied people
without children work. Exemptions are offered for those with physical or mental disability, who are on Social Security and are enrolled
in drug or alcohol counseling, or employment training. Recipients
can even volunteer in lieu of actual work.
Still, one has to wonder what kind of misery can follow the person
shutout from FoodShare and, unhappily, falls through the cracks of
this life.
We find ourselves at the start of the holiday season. Christmas is
near. We all will have opportunities to donate to local charities and
food pantries who serve our local needy population. It might be a
good idea to put a dollar in that donation pot. Or offer up a couple
cans of soup.
Think of it as insurance. Because, whether conservative or liberal, you might be utterly wrong about FoodShare.

Bacon fat
soap makes
good hobby
An office conversation about bacon
grease and its many uses made me nostalgically remember about my early
days of soap making.
I acquired the hobby quite by accident
really. A large quantity of excess bacon
grease was rendered at a grand breakfast we hosted at a cabin our family
owned. We cooked a
deal of bacon

figured there was

too much fat left
over to just toss out.
So, as merely a
matter of convenience, I poured
the remaining fat

than impressed, she
PARKER
asked what I was
REPORTER
doing with it. Off
the cuff, I answered, Im going to make
it into soap.
Her response, as an ever-supportive
distant relative was, You cant make
bacon into soap! Itll turn rancid and the
lye will burn your flesh off ! Theres a
reason they sell soap in stores now!
So, as is often the case when someone
says something cant or shouldnt be
done, I was motivated to try.
A book from the local library provided
me with a simple recipe for common
lard soap. I figured bacon fat and lard are
the same thing, give or take a little extra
salt. So, I went to work.
Basic soap making is actually quite
simple. Its just a matter of getting the
right amount of lye dissolved in water
mixed with fat at the right temperature.
Its then blended together until it starts
to gel and poured into some sort of mold.
I used disposable applesauce containers
for molds during the first go-round.
I added a touch of citronella essential
oil to tame the aroma and it made a nice
all-purpose outdoor utility soap. Nothing cleans hands soiled from gardening
or landscaping like good old bacon soap.
I later branched out into the finer
techniques of soap making, using more
refined vegetable based oils, blends of
essential oils and fancy molds. As I continued to Martha Stewart my soapmaking, I never forgot about my humble
beginnings. Theres still really nothing
like saving up bacon grease for a batch
of crude, utilitarian soap.
To keep character, the soap must be
molded and cut up crudely too. I think
the last time I made the stuff, I poured
the saponified mix of fat and lye into a
cardboard oatmeal container. When it
hardened, I cut the whole thing into slices like a giant roll of braunschweiger.
That was years ago, but Im still using
chunks of the stuff to this day. A couple
bars live outside by my cigar porch for
summertime cleanup.
I must say, bacon soap leaves the skin
soft and supple - much more so than anything store bought. That fat works its
way into the pores and improves natural
moisturization. If there are a few bacon
bits that didnt get strained out, they
serve to scrub and exfoliate the skin as
they articulate on your dirty mitties.

Peter Weinschenk, Editor, The Record-Review
I remember snow.
Its that white stuff that covers everything.
I shovelled away a half-inch dusting off
my back steps this morning.
I had to crawl upstairs in my barn to retrieve our snow shovels. They were tucked
away next to the canoe paddles, the pink
flamingos, the spare office chairs and other
miscellania that tend to get lost in a barn.
Over the summer, the shovels appeared
odd. What use are orange colored, flat shovels when the grass is green and the apple
trees are in bloom? Now, however, when the
ground is white and the sky is slate gray,
the snow shovels look quite useful. They
beg to be put to work. This is their season.
It took but a minute to clear my steps. I
remembered the drill. The muscle memory
kicked in quickly.
Yet I marveled in my task. The snow was
enchanting. It is light, fluffy, even feathery.
Its fun to throw around. I reveled in the
fact that snow is made of snowflakes, each
one of them unique.
I looked at my backyard. That, I said, is a
lot of uniqueness in a bunch of sameness.
Just like we humans.

We enjoyed having our adult son, Guthrie, hang around a few days after Thanksgiving.
My wife, Susan, and I enjoy his company,
his insights, his advice on matters big and
small.
We also appreciate his appetite. Its very
useful.
Our family had a nice, big Thanksgiving
dinner, but, even with five people at the table, we barely made a dent in the food that
was served.

We had bags of turkey leftovers. Same

thing with potatoes and cranberry relish.
With Guthrie, however, its no problem.
One day, I watched him eat six turkey tacos
for lunch. Two hours later, he devoured another five turkey tacos for dinner. He is not
the fastest eater, but he gets the job done.
So, I have this business idea.
Maybe next year at Thanksgiving your
family has a surplus of Thanksgiving food.
Your prime wish is to just see the food disappear.
What can I say? You can make us an offer.
We would be happy to rent Guthrie out to
take care of your leftover turkey, stuffing,
mashed potatoes, gravy and so forth. Believe me, you wont even notice him. Hell
be the guy sitting quietly in the corner
playing video games on his phone and making your Thanksgiving feast disappear.
He comes fully insured and will bring all
of the necessary equipment (a plate and a
fork).
Just write your check out to Guthries
Holiday Food Removal Service. Well take it
from there.

Thanksgiving provides some answers.

But it also raises a question.
Whats better? Pumpkin pie or apple pie?
I cant say.
Pumpkin pie has a dark, complex flavor.
It has substance, earthiness, if you will.
The seasoning is exotic. That allspice and
cloves are magic.
Apple pie is pure simplicity. It is sugared
and spiced fruit wrapped in crispy dough.
It is light, chunky and wonderful.
So, which is better? Apple pie? Pumpkin
pie?
There is only one answer. Both.

Williams speaking fee.
Williams said Kenyan children at the
African orphanage need shoes. The
shoes were needed, he told the student
assemblies, not just to put something
on the childrens feet. Shoes are required in Kenya for children to attend
public school.
Following Williams talk, a friendly
competition between Stratford and Edgar schools was initiated. Both schools
have until Dec. 14 to gather as many
shoes as possible.
Federwicz said the Edgar and Stratford communities are being asked to
donate shoes to the cause. All shoes
are welcome, she said. Some may not
be proper footwear for a Kenyan child,
she said, but all can be used to help
children attend school.
Federwicz said students are encouraged to perform random acts of kindness. She said kindness is popping up
all over her school.
Its awesome, she said. People
are holding the door open for the UPS
driver. They are giving out hugs. One
day, students, on their own, put paper
hearts on all of the high school and
middle school lockers with little written encouragements on them.
Brad Grube is advisor of the shoe
collection organized by the Stratford
High School freshman and sophomore
classes. He estimated that 420 pairs
of shoes had been collected before
Thanksgiving, toward the goal of receiving 2,000 pairs of donated shoes.
He has no doubt that Stratford will
reach its goal.

The objective is to get the state legislature to reform its current agricultural nonpoint runoff policies, he said.
Daigle said the minimum state conservation standards are spelled out in
the states regulations concerning agricultural performance standards. The
major standards include filing a nutrient management plan, minimizing
erosion (between three and five tons of

soil per acre per year), not discharging

manure to waterways from a barnyard
and having a well-functioning manure
pit.
Daigle said a state requirement to
provide 70 percent cost sharing for any
required conservation effort becomes
a huge impediment to dealing with
agricultural pollution.
Just to have every farmer in Marathon County do nutrient management

would cost $5 million, he said.

Nutrient management plans document how a crop, for example corn or
soybeans, will uptake fertilizers, including manure, applied to the soil.
Town of Marathon dairy member
Randel Wokatsch said he will argue at
this weekends Farm Bureau convention in Wisconsin Dells that the Marathon County resolutions should be that
organizations state policy.

A state policy committee meeting in

November voted against recommending the Marathon County resolutions
go to a convention vote.
Wokatsch said it may take time before other Farm Bureau member counties endorse the Marathon County resolutions.
Hopefully, the whole thing will pick
up steam, he said.

Local hunters harvest whitetails during 9-day season

The Marathon Fire Department used

sledgehammers to knock stone off a
chimney and save a log home in the
town of Marathon on Thursday.
Marathon fire chief Mike Tylinski
said a wood fire burned through a firebox in the stone chimney at the Sandra
Lang residence, 2703 Four Mile Rd.,
and started logs smoldering.
Firemen had to knock the stone off
the homes chimney from top to bottom
in order to stop the fire from advancing
and prevent a blaze, said Tylinski.
This was not your typical chimney
fire, he said. It was a chimney fire
but the fire was not in the chimney.
Marathon firefighters responded to
the scene at 5 a.m. Edgar Fire Department was called for mutual aid. The
firemen used 3,500 gallons on the fire.
The home suffered both smoke and water damage.
Tylinski praised the firefighters for
their efforts. I think our guys did an
excellent job, he said.

Hunter killed
A 50-year-old town of Brighton man
died Sunday from a rifle wound to the

along Century Rd. in the township, according to the Marathon County Sheriffs Department.
An investigation by the department,
the Spencer Police Department and
Wisconsin DNR continues. The Marathon County Medical Examiners Office will conduct an autopsy. No foul
play is suspected at this time.
The county reports it received a 911
call of a hunter with a gunshot wound
on Sunday at 9:14 p.m.

being either mentally or physically incapacitated, being a student enrolled
half-time in classes or receiving Social
Security.
People who do not meet the new work
requirement are barred from applying
for FoodShare benefits for 36 months.
Huebsch said FoodShare benefits
are worth $198 a month for a childless
adult.
It isnt clear whether people in Marathon County who have lost their FoodShare benefits have become employed.
Tom Prete, spokesperson for CW Solutions, said his company has found
jobs for 110 people in Marathon County
enrolled in the FoodShare Employment and Training (FSET) program.
According to the Wisconsin Department of Health and Human Services,
Wisconsin had 17,917 new enrollees in
FoodShare from January to September
of this year. FSET has found jobs for
4,513 people between April and September.
Huebsch said Wisconsin used to have

Schug Honor Stone

Tony Schug of Abrams
and his family gathered for
his honor stone placement
ceremony Oct. 3 at The Highground Veterans Memorial
Park near Neillsville.
There were 23 service members honored during the ceremony, including Schug. Schug
is the son of the late John and
Marie Schug, and he grew up
on the family farm just east
of Athens.
Schug was a paratrooper in
the 101 Airborn Division of
the 187th Regiment Combat
Team from 1955-1958.
He was joined at the stone
placement ceremony by his

TMJ SYNDROME
Q. What is TMJ syndrome?
A. TMJ is the acronym commonly used for the more unwieldy name temperomandibular joint, which is the hinge at which the lower jaw, called the
mandible, connects with the upper jaw on either side of your face. You can
feel the joints movement just in front of your ears. TMJ syndrome is acute or
chronic inflammation of this joint. It can cause significant pain and impair the
operation of the joint. In some cases, the joint can lock in either the open or
closed position.
The TMJ, like any other of your joints, is susceptible to damage from conditions like stiffness and arthritis, and dislocation, whether from a trauma like a
blow to the face, or from regular use. In addition to facial pain, TMJ syndrome
can also cause severe headaches, dizziness and pain or stiffness in the neck
and shoulders. Treatment might include stress-reduction exercises or medication.
Whenever you are experiencing facial pain, you should see your dentist.
While TMJ syndrome is a common cause of facial pain, there are other causes
as well. A sinus infection, gum disease or a toothache can also cause facial
pain. Unfortunately, its estimated some 15 percent of American adults experience facial pain. Your dentist, sometimes with the use of x-rays, can identify the
source of the pain and recommend treatment.

Stratfords lead slips away

Pacellis treys
doom Tigers in
second period
Stratfords varsity boys basketball
team played so good in the first period
of Mondays home game against Stevens Point Pacelli, that it appeared the
Tigers would run away with an easy
win.
The Tigers took a seven-point lead
into halftime, but the wheels fell off
in the second period when the Cardinal shooters began heating up from
behind the arc to go home with a 54-45
win.
Pacelli senior guard Jake Elliott
knocked down a three-pointer to give
the Cardinals a 30-29 lead in the second period. The Cardinals went up,
34-19, with 13 minutes left in the game
after Elliott hit his free throws after
he was fouled while shooting a three
pointer.
Cardinals senior Chris Shibilski
converted an original three-point play
when he made the basket while being
fouled. He then made the free throw to
give Pacelli a 10-point lead with eight
minutes remaining in regulation.
Stratford sophomore Brenden Fecker drained a three-pointer, as Pacelli
held onto a 51-40 advantage with about
four-and-a-half minutes left in the second period.
Tigers senior forward Derrick
Schmidts rebound and putback cut
into the Cardinals lead at 51-42 with
two-and-a-half minutes remaining.
Schmidt achieved a double-double
with 17 points and 12 rebounds.
Things began getting even more interesting when Stratford junior for-

ward Jacob Danen grabbed a tough rebound and was fouled on the putback.
He calmly sank the free throw to help
the Tigers cut into the Cardinals 51-45
lead with just over two minutes left in
the game.
A Pacelli player then turned the ball
over when he dribbled it out of bounds
along the baseline, giving Stratford
another opportunity to cut into the
Cardinals lead.
But the Tigers couldnt take advantage of the miscue and ended up turning the ball over themselves when senior forward Ethan Nagel was called
for a charge while he attempted to
knife through the Cardinals defense.
Stratfords late second-period rally
fell a bit too short, as the Tigers were
forced into fouling Pacelli players
with hopes they would miss their free
throws. The Cardinals made enough
free throws from the charity stripe,
and the Tigers couldnt get the basketball in the hoop as Pacelli went on for
the nine-point victory.
Fecker was second on Stratfords
team with 15 points, as the Tigers now
will look to regroup before their next
game at 7:30 p.m. Saturday at OwenWithee. Stratford heads into Saturdays game with a 1-1 record, after the
Tigers beat Colby, 51-35, in their home
opener Nov. 24.

Marathon girls tussel with D-1 teams

The Marathon varsity girls basketball
team will be battle
tested come playoff
time at the end of
February, as the Red
Raiders opened the season by playing
Division 1 teams Marshfield and D.C.
Everest last weekend during the Tom
Kislow Memorial Tournament in Antigo.
The Red Raiders fought back to almost beat Marshfield last Friday, but
fell just short in a 56-53 loss.
Marathon senior guard Jayci Blume

Rachu paced the Red Raiders with 10

Marathon rebounded to beat D.C.
Everest, 55-35, last Saturday. The Red

Raiders and Evergreens both played

at state in different divisions last season.
Rachu achieved a double-double
against Everest with 12 points and 13
rebounds. She also led Marathon with
four steals, and she and senior guard
Julia Anderson each had three assists
to lead the team.
Senior forward Olivia Meurette and
Hanke chipped in 10 points apiece.
Marathon coach Jeff Schneider said
the experience of playing against bigger schools should prove invaluable
once the playoffs arrive.
Playing Marshfield and D.C. Everest makes us get better, and we feel
fortunate to start the season playing two bigger schools with excellent
programs, he said. Both teams had
good size and many good players that
can score. We know these are the lev-

el of teams we want to compete with

during tournament time at the end of
the season.

THE SPORTING SCENE

Tanner Weinfurtner couldnt
help but crack a smile while
watching the Dallas Cowboys
play Thanksgiving Day, fully
knowing that soon hell be playing at the massive AT & T Stadium, where the Cowboys play
their home games.
Weinfurtner, a 6 foot, 4 inch,
295-pound junior offensive lineman at Stratford High School,
has been selected to play on the
2016 United States Under-18 National Team, assembled by USA
Football, against Canadian national teams in the seventh annual International Bowl Feb. 3
in Arlington, Texas.
Every time I would look at
the television screen during the
Cowboys game, it would seem
crazy to me that I will actually
be playing on their field, Weinfurtner said. Its such a great
opportunity for me, and my dad
Kurt is a Cowboys fan, so it will
be cool to have him and my mom
Lisa supporting me down there.
Weinfurtner, 17, began starting on the Stratford High School
varsity football teams offensive
line near the end of his freshman season, and he earned
second-team all-Marawood Conference honors as a starter during his sophomore season. He
wasnt eligible to receive any
conference recognition this past
season due to a sprained MCL in
his left knee occurring during
week five of the regular season.
He has been working hard with
his physical therapists to get his
knee ready for the International
Bowl.
I have had tremendous support from my family and friends
for me to get my knee 100 percent
before the February game, he
said. I do believe that I will be
ready to go.
Jason Tubbs, Stratford High
School varsity football coach,
first introduced USA Football
to Weinfurtner by giving him a
registration form to send in for
playing in the USA developmental football camp held in early
May in Milwaukee.
Weinfurtner performed so
well during the two-day noncontact camp that he received
an invitation to play in a USA
developmental game in one of
four places in the country: Los
Angeles, California, Canton,
Ohio, College Station, Texas or
Baltimore, Md. He chose to play

TEXAS BOUND-Stratford High School junior offensive lineman Tanner Weinfurtner

will showcase his football prowess during Februarys International Bowl in Texas.

SADDLING UP FOR
TEXAS FOOTBALL
Weinfurtner will play at AT & T
Stadium, home of the Cowboys
in the developmental game in Canton
because thats where the Pro Football
Hall of Fame is located.
He was one of 122 high school football players from around the country
who participated in the eight days of
football practice and games during the
week leading up to the Fourth of July.
Weinfurtner was one of three players
there from Wisconsin. He recalls playing with a football player from Massachusetts and one from as far away as
Mississippi.
It was a very team-inductive at-

mosphere, Weinfurtner said. The

coaches picked four teams from among
the players there to play against each
other, and nobody cared what team
they were on because we were all so familiar with each other, like wed been
playing together for several years. The
one thing that we all had in common
was a love for football.
Weinfurtner may look big on the
high school football field, but he was
only average sized compared to the
other offensive and defensive linemen
he practiced with and played against

in Canton. College coaches are in

charge of the USA football practices and games, and they didnt have
an issue with Weinfurtners size.
My coaches in Canton told me
that weight is not the main statistic they look at for offensive linemen, because they are more concerned with a players footwork,
techniques and strength, he said.
They said a big kid is not as desirable as a kid that is strong. Its
important to play low as an offensive lineman because the low man
always wins, and flexibility in
your hips is also important, which
comes from doing squats in the
weight room.
Weinfurtner credits his Stratford coaches from third grade up
into high school, including Tubbs
and his high school offensive line
coach, Kellen Kafka.
The one thing that coaches in
Stratford do is teach their players the football techniques and
make sure they are mastered, he
said. Even the new things that
I have learned at these USA football camps are similar to what my
coaches in Stratford have already
taught me.
He played so well in Canton that
he was one of 30 to 40 players out of
the 122 participating to be selected
to represent the USA in the International Bowl.
Tubbs is elated for Weinfurtner.
Its a great honor, and Tanner has
worked very hard to get this opportunity, he said. He is a great kid
that loves the game of football and
he will represent his country, state
and hometown with an enormous
amount of pride.
Weinfurtner is excited to have
the opportunity to learn more from
Steven Ciocci, who will be his offensive line coach during the practices and game in Texas. Ciocci
coaches at Division II Pace University in New York City.
Weinfurtner may play offensive
guard for his high school team, but
he wont play any certain position
along the offensive line during the
International Bowl.
I feel like I am versatile enough
to play any position they want me
to play down there because I can
also play at center and tackle, he
said.
Besides honing in on his blocking techniques and footwork, Weinfurtner also learned leadership
skills and how to be a good team
player while he was in Canton.

A weekly perspective
on sports
Most people wouldnt think a
locker would be too special, but I
was elated to see a picture of Aaron
Wickmans nameplate on his college
track and field locker with the signature University of Wisconsin W
engraved.
Many area people will forever remember Wickman, a 2015 graduate
of Athens High School, breaking the
Division 3 200-meter dash record in
21.73 seconds during last springs
state track and field championships.
He is now a freshman sprinter for
the Badgers, and hes been practicing since his classes began in preparation for the first indoor meet of the
season Jan. 16 against the University
of Notre Dame.
Last week I wrote a sports feature
article on 2011 Edgar High School
graduate Aaron Karlen concluding
his stellar UW-Stevens Point football
career, and that now he wants to attempt to realize his dream of playing
in the National Football League.
It turns out there were several
local players on Karlens Pointers
football team this season, including
brothers Blake and Reed Lehman
who are also from Edgar. Reed was
a six foot, three inch, 223-pound senior tight end. Blake was a five foot,
10 inch, 180-pound sophomore defensive back.
Two Marathon graduates, Jake
Dinkel and Damien Lang, were also
on the Pointers football team. Dinkel
was a six foot, two inch, 195-pound
sophomore wide receiver, and Lang
was a six foot, one inch, 248-pound
sophomore tight end.
Athens 2015 graduate Lane Tessmer joined them this season as a five

foot, 11 inch, 205-pound freshman

running back.
There may be a strong pipeline
of local football players continuing
their football careers at UW-Stevens
Point, but there are several other
area graduates playing college football for Division III Wisconsin and
Division II Minnesota colleges.
Athens graduate Jayden Dobbs
was a senior on the UW-Eau Claire
football team this season. He was a
six foot, one inch, 227-pound defensive end. Stratford graduate Travis Urlaub was a five foot, 11 inch
200-pound junior running back for
UW-Stout.
A few local graduates ventured to
Minnesota to play Division II football. Recent Athens graduate Nathan Belisle was a six foot, five inch,
284-pound freshman offensive lineman at Minnesota State-Moorhead.
Two Edgar graduates were members of the Minnesota State-Mankato football team this season. Jeffrey
Raymond was a six foot, one inch,
290-pound senior defensive tackle on
the team, while William Hannemann
was a six foot, 220-pound sophomore
linebacker.
The winter sports season has just
begun, and I see that 2015 Athens
graduate Kyncaide Diedrich is playing well in basketball as a five foot,
five inch freshman guard for UWStout.
Im sure I missed a couple of graduates from Athens, Edgar, Marathon
and Stratford who are playing college athletics, but I thought it was
important to highlight the great
things our graduates are doing after
high school.

St. Josephs School

MAREA featured speaker

Rick Lohr, pictured with his wife Joyce, was the featured speaker after the Marshfield Area Retired Educators Associations November meeting was adjourned. Rick spoke about Polio, My Journey. In 2004, Rick
and Joyce traveled to India in an effort to irradicate polio, via vaccine, which was accomplished in 2014.
Rick explained that immunization is for life as there are no mutations and no carriers from animals. From
1943-1956 there were 400,000 cases of polio in the U.S. with 2-3 week duration and consequences of the
disease are for life. He spoke of the March of Dimes organization which paid approximately 80 percent
of the bills for familles with a child with polio. During those years Wisconsin had 2,228 polio cases and
130 deaths. 1952 was the year of the epidemic with 58,000 polio cases occuring. Ricks sister Jackie
contracted polio when she was 11 years old and received some relief from the iron lung machine. Jackie
went on to receive bachelors and masters degrees and live a full life that inspired all who know her. Rick
spoke of the 1954 vaccine discovered by Dr. Jonas Salk, followed by the Sabin oral polio vaccine, a safer
and more effective vaccine.
Halle spoke about working 30
years in education with seven
different principals, mostly
in the Marshfield Jr. High
School system. She said the
modular scheduling of middle school students was especially challenging.
Carol
Ely,
membership
chair, distributed the new
membership directory. Dorothy Dietsche, foundation
chair, circulated the foundation donation box and noted
the donation is for the 20
years the foundation has been

in existence.
Anne Teska reported on
the WREA State Convention
in Manitowoc, attended by
three MAREA members. Kurt
Kiefer, assistant state superintendent of schools, was the
keynote speaker, addressing
the needs of school districts.
The convention theme was
Light the Way with WREA.

Diane Callope, 2014 State
Teacher of the Year; John
Forester, director of government relations and school

Three
h
Hunts in Paradise

Hello friends,
Twenty-seven falls ago, I started writing this column. Fifteen years ago, I started hobby
farming and became a very active father. Outdoor columnists and hobby farmers have one thing
in common and that is a busy season that runs from the start of planting season until the day
that Wisconsins deer gun season ends. I am on the tail end of a whale of a busy season that beat
the pulp out of me physically, financially and
sometimes even mentally.
This week I am writing to you about my
experiences in the great outdoors and the
week before The Red Brush Gang makes it
to deer camp.
Monday, November 16
High 44, low 27
My 14-year-old daughter, Selina Walters,
has her very own food plot. We both hunt it
during the turkey season and it is all Selinas
for bow season, until today. We put a lot of
time, sweat and creativity into our alfalfa,
corn, turnips and radishes.
A simple home in the woods for a month each year.
The local deer population loves eating
them, but as our trail cameras and Selinas
hunts have been revealing this fall, most of the deer are in the plot after dark. The beauty of
Selinas food plot is that she can hunt after school and the few weekends that she is home.
A typical bow hunt for Selina consists of her becoming very comfortable in her ladder stand
and reading while watching the world around her.
Today, I hunted the food plot for the first time this fall. As soon as I was in the stand, a steady
rain began that would last for the next 36 hours. I did not see a deer until I was climbing down
from the stand and I was thoroughly busted when that happened.
Tuesday, November 17
High 42, low 35
A little 36-hour trip to deer camp for a duck
hunt, a bow hunt and to prepare a very large meal
was next on my agenda.
The duck hunt was a 100-percent mind over
matter issue. It was pouring out, extremely windy
and I was going to have to paddle my canoe a
good mile to duck paradise. Back in the 80s
and 90s I had some pretty good duck hunts on
what is a flowage for a cranberry marsh. It has
been probably five years since I paddled a canoe
on it and the last few hunts did not require many
shotgun shells.
Back in the day when I called hunting camp
home for 100 days each fall, I used to ice skate
and cross country ski on this flowage while fishing
with tip-ups.
Today my paddle was into the wind, Selinas
golden retriever Fire did not seem too interested
in the adventure. After a half hour of pulling a
Selina Walters resting in her bow stand after heavy load with my arms, I jumped out of the
a morning hunt.
canoe and started setting decoys.
I had borrowed the pair of chest waders that I
chose to wear today to a young beaver trapper. I had no idea that they were toast and felt cold
reality as they filled with water.
I did not see a single duck; I did see ample amounts of muskrat signs, I paddled back to
my truck and then was off to camp where I peeled an entire six-gallon bucket of potatoes and
created a big time meal for the first night of deer camp.
Wednesday, November 18
High 46, low 37
Everyone has their own version of deer camp and mine is an 18x36 foot portable pole barn
put on public land each November and taken down the last day of deer gun season.
I love it here and actually say that to myself when I am at camp alone. Today I cooked, drank
coffee and then headed out to the woods for a 3/4 mile hike with a bow and arrow and a tree
stand. Here in Wisconsins central forest, if you strap on hip boots and hike in a ways, you have
bow hunting all to yourself.
As usual, I was running late on the sun clock, which was actually blocked out by clouds.
My stand is hung where I have seen some beautiful bucks this year. After hanging my stand, I
climbed down to get my bow and something is missing and that is all five of my arrows.
I had traveled through some dense brush and began backtracking. Naturally, my arrows were
at the very beginning of my hike.
As you can see, hunting is certainly not always about dropping ducks and harvesting bucks.
I love this place! Sunset

Man dies in crash

A 29-year-old male died Tuesday
around 8:30 p.m. when the car he was
driving slid on an iced-over stretch of
STH 29 near the STH 97 intersection
and struck a disabled semi tractor
trailer parked on the shoulder of the
westbound lane.
The Marathon County Sheriffs Department said the Athens Fire Department ambulance was dispatched to the

scene. The sheriffs department, however, did not identify the deceased.
The car driver was transported to St.
Josephs Hospital, Marshfield, where
he died.
This crash is being investigated by
the Marathon County Sheriffs Department crash reconstruction team and
the Wisconsin State Patrol.

THE RECORD-REVIEW

OBITUARIES

Victoria Lemmer

Victoria L. (Kropidlowski) Lemmer, 69, of Edgar entered eternal life

on November 16, 2015, peacefully at her home. Her spirit is carried on
by her husband of 49 years, seven daughters, 25 grandchildren, two
great-grandchildren, two sisters, and an extended family of relatives
and friends.
Vicki was born Oct. 30, 1946, in Menasha to the late Benjamin and
Alvina (Lee) Kropidlowski. She graduated from Edgar High School in
1964 and married Charles Lemmer at Holy Family Catholic Church in
Poniatowski on Oct. 29, 1966.
Following high school, she was employed at Strongs Grocery and
the Badger Basket Factory. Once they started building their family,
she turned homemaker, a really outstanding homemaker. She was so
proud of the seven daughters they raised together. Sometimes known
as Charlies Angels, although in early years, she may have disagreed.
While raising her own family, she provided loving care to local families and
friends. Once her daughters were in school, she began working for the United
States Postal Service in 1989 and was still your happy local rural mail carrier
at the time of her death. Whenever you saw Vicki, she had a loving smile and
made you feel welcome. Teaching them to cook, bake and solve Sunday crossword
puzzles are some of the memories that her daughters will cherish forever.
Vicki started each week with the same two staples, Sunday Mass and the Sunday crossword puzzle. She was the anchor that kept her large family together and
taught us that no matter what life throws at you, with family you can get through
anything. And you smile. Always smile. Her unwavering faith in God was evident
and taught her children the importance of having faith from little on. She taught
us all that you forgive, no matter the circumstances.
Vicki had an endless amount of love and support, regardless of the time, place
or situation. With a family as large as hers, her phone was ringing constantly
from family looking for advice, a caring heart to listen, one of her recipes or to
ask for the 30th time, How long do I boil eggs? and always sternly reminded to
stop stirring the baked beans! While most families would have resorted to a local town hall for Thanksgiving, she wanted it at our home. So we made it work, all
40-plus of us, plus add-ons from other extended families.
Vicki enjoyed spending time on the Willow and Lake Nokomis, solving world
problems and singing around the campfire until wee hours in the morning. One
of her favorite songs being Love Can Build A Bridge. If you wanted to race her
to get her Friday fish fry every week, you would lose every time.
She reserved Sunday afternoons for pontoon rides around the northwoods and
there would always be time to pull up on the water at the ice cream shop. While

the pontoon legally fits 17 people, were sure we have doubled that capacity because it was important to her that we were all together. She
loved inviting relatives and friends to the lake and spending the weekends giving tours and waiting for the next person to trip over the one
wonky stair that would get us each and every time.
Vicki and Charlie were so proud of their 25 (and counting) grandchildren and were running constantly to their events. She was the best
cheerleader you could ever wish for, making long road trips for regional and state events. She was so proud of their accomplishments, her
passing will definitely leave an empty spot in the bleachers.
Vicki was a devoted wife and best friend to her husband. The love
they shared is a love that you could feel when you walked into the room.
Vicki was one of the most kind and loving people that you have ever
met. She will be missed by so many who knew and loved her. While
we are heartbroken we will no longer be able to see her smile, we know that God
must have been in need for a really special angel if he took her so soon from us.
Rest, Mom, in the arms of Jesus.
Vicki is survived by her devoted and loving husband, Charlie; children, Shelley (James) Gering, Wausau, Kelly (Kyle) Lukasko, Edgar, Kari (Mike) Butt, Edgar, Kristine (Kurt) Hafferman, Edgar, Melissa (Mike) Bornheimer, Edgar, Tracy
(Mike) Graveen, Edgar, and Mandy (Greg) Streit, Edgar; siblings, Bonnie (Stan)
Totos, Calument City, Ill., and Gladys (Bill) Rennie, Owen; grandchildren, Ben
and Morgan Gering, Jeremy (Amber) Lukasko, Andrew (Tiffany) Lukasko, Cassie
(Dakota) Heidmann, Makenzie, Kamryn, Karson, Mattison, Karter, Maverick and
Maclain Butt, Alec and Kaleb Hafferman, Cierra, Dylan, Dawson, Drae and Deacon Bornheimer, Jaxon and Harrison Graveen, Teegan, Tucker, Charlie, Gabriella and Baby Streit; and great-grandchildren, Landon Lukasko and Eli Lukasko.
Besides her parents, she was proceeded in death by her siblings, Kenny Kropidlowski, Irene Bonin and Rita Matysik; as well as many other cherished family
members that have also been taken from us much too soon.
The funeral Mass was celebrated at 11 a.m. on Thursday, Nov. 19, 2015, at St.
John Catholic Church, Edgar. Rev. Robert Streveler and Rev. Thomas Huff presided. Burial was in the parish cemetery. Friends and family called on Wednesday
from 4-8 p.m. at St. John Catholic Church, Edgar. Visitation continued on Thursday from 9 a.m. until the time of service at the church. There was a parish prayer
service at 7 p.m. Wednesday evening.
Peterson/Kraemer Funeral Home, Edgar, assisted the family with arrangements. Online condolences may be expressed at www.petersonkraemer.com.
