Oregon Observer
The

Village of Oregon

Hotel deal
called off
Bill Livick
Unified Newspaper Group

A new Sleep Inn Hotel


that a developer has been
planning for the villages
south side is off the table
after a local financial
backer pulled out of the
deal.
Village officials have
been negotiating with
hotel manager Eric Lund
for the past year, but
administrator Mike Gracz
told the board Monday the
projects main contributor,
property owner Barb Grover, is not going to participate.
Barb thinks its a good
deal but just decided not
to do the deal, Gracz told
the board.
He added that Lund is
taking what we proposed
to other developers.
The Observer reported
in early August that the
Village Board had agreed
to Lunds request for more
tax-increment financing
assistance due to poor
soil conditions at the site
where the hotel was to be
built.
He had agreed to

build a 52-room hotel


using $561,256 in TIF
assistance. Lund added $140,000 to the TIF
request in late July after
soil borings showed the
building would have to be
constructed on geo pylons.
He told the Observer in August he planned
t o b eg i n bu i l d i n g t h e
three-story hotel a
52-room Sleep Inn and
Suites this fall and it
should be open late
spring of next year, with
a value of $5 million.
Last week, Gracz wrote
an email to the Observer
saying that he was waiting for Lund to sign the
developer agreement and
that he expected building
plans to go to the Planning
Commission in October.
Village officials have
long wanted a hotel to
provide rooms for visitors, promote economic
development and because
a hotel room tax would
help fund tourism promotion efforts. They commissioned a feasibility study
in 2012 and asked for proposals over the past several years.
The hotel would have
been the first to operate in
Oregon for many decades.

A half-century of learning
Oregon High School celebrates 50th anniversary this week
Scott De Laruelle
Unified Newspaper Group

Fifty years after students first


attended classes there, Oregon High
School is bigger and better than ever.
Thanks to continuing construction
as part of the Oregon School Districts
successful $54.6 million capital projects referendum, the school is being
upgraded once again, and it hardly
belies its advanced age. But when it
first opened for classes on Sept. 21,
1966, the building was quite the novelty, and it was the center of attention
in Oregon.
Because of overcrowding in the
schools, board members had begun
looking at a possible new high school
more than two years earlier, with
voters in the fall of 1964 approving
a $1.5 million referendum on a new
high school. A story in the Jan. 7,

1965, Observer discussed the need for


a new school and laid out a timelines.
With the crowded situation in the
school system becoming more and
more critical, all efforts will be made
to complete the new school and see
it ready for occupancy in the fall of
1966, it read.
With the addition of the new high
school, the Oregon Consolidated
School District as it was known then
divided its 2,129 students differently, including 565 high schoolers.
Students had been separated in
grades 1-8 and 9-12, but when the
new high school was built, the former
Red Brick school that now serves as
Gorman and Companys headquarters
became a new junior high for students
in grades 6-8. Elementary schools
then taught up to fifth grade.

Woman hurt in
U.S. 14 rollover
A 20-year-old Evansville woman was transported by MedFlight Sunday morning after her car
left the road and rolled
over multiple times in
the Town of Rutland, the
Dane County Sheriff s
Office reported.
Deputies found the
woman shortly before
7a.m. Sunday, Sept. 18,
on U.S. Hwy. 14 south
of Hwy. 138 after a passing motorist spotted a
vehicle about 100 feet off
the road, a DCSO news
release said. While she
was breathing and conscious, deputies believe
she might have been lying
in the field alongside
her damaged 2012 Nissan Murano for several
hours before she was
found.
The woman was transported to UW Hospital with serious but
non-life-threatening injuries.
The preliminary investigation found the woman
had been driving southbound on Hwy. 14 before
missing a curve and going
off the road. There was
no indication that alcohol
played a role in the crash,
the release said.

Linzmeier
takes over as
interim chief
He plans to apply for
permanent position

BILL LIVICK
Unified Newspaper Group

The Oregon Area Fire/


EMS District has an interim leader after the Sept. 14
swearing in of Glenn Linzmeier.
Linzmeier, 50, is a McFarland resident who served as
chief of the Blooming Grove
Fire Department from 1999
until last year, when Blooming Grove and the City of
Madison merged fire departments.
I worked for a while
longer as we dissolved the
fire department, Linzmeier
explained.
During his tenure in
Blooming Grove, Linzmeier
also served stints as president of the Dane County
Fire Chiefs Association and
the Wisconsin State Fire
Chiefs Association.
After Blooming Grove,
Linzmeier worked as a
paid-on-call member of the
Monona Fire Department
and became the assistant
chief for operations and
training.
When former Oregon
fire chief Jack Mlnarik
announced he would be
leaving to take a job in Bellevue, a member of the joint
board thats responsible for
hiring and firing in the district contacted Linzmeier
and asked if hed be interested in serving as interim

chief until the district hires a


permanent leader.
Linzmeier said hes working full-time for four or five
months and plans to apply
for the fire chief position.
I told the rank and file
here that I am definitely going to
apply for it,
Linzmeier said. I
b e l i eve w e
have a good
fit, and it
seems like
things are
Linzmeier
going quite
well here.
He added that if hes
hired full-time to lead the
organization, he would
move closer to Oregon.
My family and myself
are all about moving to the
Oregon district because Im
a firm believer the fire chief
should be in the community
that they protect, he said.
Weve got a lot of great
people and a great community, Linzmeier added.
Im looking forward to
working with everybody
here.
Oregon Trustee Jeff Boudreau, who chairs the Fire
Commission, said the district would have an open
hiring process for a new
chief, and added hes grateful that Linzmeier accepted
the offer to lead the department on an interim basis.

Payroll Processing

Board eyes church, unsure of cost


Hidden costs include taking
N. Main site off tax rolls
BILL LIVICK
Unified Newspaper Group

The Village Board is considering


buying a vacant church property on
North Main Street for a municipal
building, but trustees first want to
know more about the cost to taxpayers.
If the village were to build on the
property, though, it would be removing the building and land from the
tax rolls and also from an established
tax-increment finance district, which
creates some complications.
On Monday, the board directed staff to provide details about the
overall cost to purchase the building. Its considering buying the 2.7acre property, razing the dilapidated
church and former school building
and constructing a new municipal
building at the site possibly a
library or a senior center.
Village administrator Mike Gracz
told the board he would contact the
villages financial adviser and report
back when the numbers come in.
Village officials are in the process
of putting together plans for a possible civic campus redevelopment
downtown that is likely to result in
new buildings for a library and senior
center. Village Hall and a youth center are included in the planning.
In July, the Village Board unanimously rejected a proposal to build a
99-unit assisted-living facility at the

site after neighbors argued that the


proposed 87,000-square-foot building would be too large for the lot and
cause traffic problems in the area.
The developer had requested $1
million in TIF assistance to redevelop the North Main Street site. The
property is assessed at $687,000.
TIF is a public financing tool that
collects the increased property taxes
in an area over time from all taxing
jurisdictions and puts them under
the control of the municipality. It is
designed to enable development that
otherwise would not have occurred.
On Monday, Trustee Jeanne Carpenter suggested the village could
borrow the money it would have
spent on the TIF project and put it
toward its own redevelopment project. However, in that case, it wouldnt
be spending TIF, which would theoretically come back to the municipality in deferred taxes.
Village planner Mike Slavney told
the board the Main Street property is
large enough to accommodate a new
senior center or a two-story library,
with adequate space to exceed building setbacks and provide plenty of
parking and room for future expansion.
Trustee Jeff Boudreau asked what
the cost of taking the property off
the tax rolls would be to village taxpayers. He also mentioned factoring
in the debt service for borrowing
$800,000 to acquire the property.
Gracz said the village receives a
little more than $3,000 in annual
tax payments for the property out of
$13,710 in total property taxes paid.

Village President Steve Staton


asked Slavney if the village would
save much by building on the Main
Street site instead of building where
the library and senior center are presently sited.
The planner responded that demolishing old buildings, clearing and
preparing the sites would have
roughly equivalent costs. Purchasing
the Main Street property would be
the main difference, he said.
He added that building on the
vacant church site would have a
long-term benefit to the neighborhood by improving property values.
Staton said most of the comments
hes heard from residents have supported the village acquiring the property and redeveloping it.
That was also the message from
several residents who spoke at Mondays meeting.
Mike Wunsch, who owns a property at 299 N. Main St. with his
wife, Rae Vogeler, said having a new
library with community rooms and
outdoor space would enhance the
quality of life in the area.
Its going to increase my property
taxes, and Im totally OK with that,
he said. It would also raise the value
of my property.
Carpenter said shed like to get a
ballpark figure on the cost to buy
the property. Staton agreed: Im
ready to say lets start negotiating.
Lets get the process started and get a
ballpark figure.

Isolation not pretty, but necessary


Once again I have to question
statements made by Ms. Maurice in regards to the confinement of prisoners in Wisconsin.
She states inmate Rayshun
Woods is in administrative confinement and has been there for
four years despite perfect behavior. What she doesnt say is what
got Mr. Woods placed into that
status, as there are several reasons to place an inmate there:
serious threat to life, property,
self, staff, other inmates or security of the institution.
The administrative review
committee, which is appointed
by the warden, consists of three
members: one from security,
one from treatment and one
a supervisor. Administrative
confinement is non-punitive.
The inmate is given a hearing
with certain rights. His status
is reviewed every six months

by that committee, and if the


inmate is there longer than 12
months, his case is reviewed
by the warden and department
administrator. An inmate in this
status can have certain property
in his cell, can have visitors,
send mail, shower, have social,
religious and clinical services all
in cell, earn good time for early
release, earn pay and have canteen privileges.
I have no expertise in the
field of mental health or illness.
Going to prison is not pretty.
Solitary confinement is not pretty. Everyone has to make choices in life. Working your way out
of confinement is not hard. Follow the rules, do your time, and
get released back into society.
Steve Waldron,
Village of Oregon

Drugs not welcome in Oregons schools


Drugs do not belong in our
schools. Worse yet, most students are using them according to my daughter. The latest
versions of synthetic drugs
destroy a students brain. There
is no going back. Group pressure plays a big role in getting
your son or daughter hooked.
Sometimes they are even provided the first hit for free! Oregon schools are a drug dealers
playground.
I have spent the last six years
working with felons in Wisconsin
prisons. I wanted to know more
about why some of our students
end up in prison. Seventy percent
of those incarcerated have an
addition problem and so many of
the crimes are drug-related. What

I learned was eye-opening.


In search for solutions, as a
former teacher and superintendent of schools, I realized that
students even at an early age
need more help in understanding
themselves and others to combat bullying and other negative
behaviors. Also critical is having a plan upon graduation that
gives them meaning and purpose
in their life.
I will donate at no cost my
online assessment, tools and
courses for Oregon students via
my business, Xyte, Inc. We need
solutions and a plan. Let us all
work together and now.

The Village Board Monday


cleared the way for a redevelopment project at the Dorn Hardware
site at the corner of West Richards
Road and North Main Street.
The board amended the zoning
classification and approved a general development plan for the project, which calls for three buildings in three construction phases.
The first building is a mixed-use,
three-story structure with office
and retail on the ground floor and
about 30 apartments or condominiums on the floors above.

The building would face Main


Street, and Oregon Hometown
Pharmacy is expected to move into
it, said architect Jerry Bourquin.
He added the facility would have
both above and underground parking.
The redevelopment, called Dorn
Plaza, would take place in phases
to allow the hardware store and
pharmacy to remain open during
construction.
Developers plan to have the first
phase done next summer, with
the timing for the following two
phases dependent on how quickly
the first building fills.
Plans call for 30 dwelling
units in the first building on the
2.85-acre site at 131 W. Richards Road, including 12 studio
units, 14 one-bedroom and four

two-bedroom units.
Bourquin said a new hardware
store would be constructed near
the back of the lot in the final
phase of development.
Tom Dorn told the Observer the
plan is for three buildings. Two
would be a mix of commercial/
retail and residential, while the
third would be a new hardware
store.
The Village Board approved the
plans with little discussion.
Village administrator Mike
Gracz told the Observer the developers next step in the approval
process is to present a specific
implementation plan for the project, probably at the Planning Commissions meeting in November.

Rendering courtesy Dimension IV design group

the board deny Machovecs application.


Uhl alleged that Machovec
had provided false information
on his application and that his
store manager, Stacy Listol, also
provided false information. He
also wrote in a board memo that
Machovec has a history of habitual criminality as it relates to
stalking women and the solicitation of prostitution and sex
acts.
Machovec owns liquor stores in
Fitchburg, Madison, McFarland
and Cottage Grove. Listol manages all of the stores.
A second applicant, Mahendran
Namasivayam, was also on Mondays agenda for consideration of
his application. But after hearing
attorney Charles Giesens hourlong pitch in support of Machovec, the board voted to postpone a
decision until next Monday.
Machovec holds a lease for the
North Main Street property thats
contingent on him obtaining a
liquor license.

Giesen refuted Uhls allegations, calling them slanderous.


He has worked hard and honestly his entire life, the attorney
said.
Uhl said Machovecs application indicated he had never
been convicted for any offenses,
which is false. According to
online court records, Machovec
was found guilty in 2010 of three
counts of misdemeanor criminal
damage to property. Two counts
of felony stalking were dismissed
after Machovec completed a First
Offender program.
The police chief said one of the
women Machovec was accused of
stalking was an employee of his.
The woman who he solicited sex acts from was also an
employee of his liquor stores,
Uhl wrote, and the sex acts
were solicited while she was so
employed and on duty (he paid
this employee $20,000 for sex
acts over a four year period).
Giesen called several witnesses, some employees of Machovec, to testify about his honesty
and integrity.

He treats his employees very


well, and they hold him in high
regard, Giesen said.
He acknowledged that Machovec had been convicted of criminal damage to property and said
prosecution was deferred. He said
we all make mistakes and that
Machovec had paid his debt to
society.
The other applicant, Namasivayam, and his representatives had
previously appeared before the
board in a presentation that was
not contentious. Namasivayam
owns and operates four liquor
stores in three communities:
Lodi, Sauk and two in Madison.
After the meeting, Village
President Steve Staton told the
Observer that laws governing the
granting of liquor licenses are
complicated and that the village
must consider the applications
carefully.
The board plans to meet at
5p.m. Monday, Sept. 26, to make
a decision on the applications.

Correction
Because of reporting and editing errors, a story in last weeks Observer about a liquor application for
the Oregon Ice Arena had incorrect information about previous applicant Ben Cowans OWI charges.
Though part of Cowans charges were dismissed, online court records actually show that he pleaded guilty
to a misdemeanor fourth-offense OWI in May, was fined and is serving a seven-month jail sentence with
work-release privileges.
The Observer thanks readers who noticed this mistake and regrets the error.

ORDINANCE NO. 16-29


VILLAGE OF OREGON
DANE COUNTY, WISCONSIN
AN ORDINANCE
CHANGING THE ZONING
CLASSIFICATION OF
PROPERTY LOCATED AT
131 W. RICHARDS
ROAD (VICTOR DORN
CORPORATION
REDEVELOPMENT)

RECITALS
1. Victor Dorn Corporation (the Applicant) has requested approval of a
General Development Plan for the property located at 131 W. Richards Road, Oregon, Wisconsin (the Property).
2. The Planned Development District
is intended to provide a voluntary regulatory framework designed to encourage
and promote improved environmental
and aesthetic design in the Village by allowing for greater design freedom, imagination and flexibility in the development
of land while insuring substantial compliance with the basic intent of the Villages
Zoning Ordinance and Comprehensive
Plan. The comparable zoning district for
the Property, used for establishing baseline zoning requirements and identifying
needed flexibility, is Planned Business.
3. The Applicant has submitted a
General Development Plan (the GDP)
consisting of the following:
A. Dimension IV Madison Design
Group Letter to Oregon Plan Commission, dated August 5, 2016, 3 pages, attached as Exhibit A.
B. Dimension IV Madison Design
Group Letter to Vandewalle & Associates,
Inc., dated August 24, 2016, 2 pages, attached as ExhibitB.
C. Letter from Quam Engineering,
LLC re Stormwater Management Approach, dated August 3, 2016, 1 page,
attached as Exhibit C.
D. Plans prepared by Dimension
IV Madison Design Group, attached as
Exhibit D, 9 pages, consisting of the following:
(1) G0.1 Cover Sheet, last dated August 26, 2016.

(2) Aerial View sheet dated August


3, 2016.
(3) Site Development Plan Phase I
sheet dated August 3, 2016.
(4) Site Development Plan Phase II
sheet dated August 24, 2016.
(5) Site Development Plan Phase III
sheet dated August 3, 2016.
(6) First Floor Plan sheet dated August 3, 2016.
(7) Second & Third Floor Unit Plan
sheet (undated).
(8) Schematic Elevation sheet N.
Main Street sheet (undated)
(9) Perspective View sheet dated August 3, 2016.
4. On September 1, 2016 the Village
Plan Commission conducted a public
hearing on the GDP.
5. On September 12, 2016, the Village Board considered approving the
GDP.
6. The Village Board makes the following findings:
A. The GDP furthers the purposes
of the Villages zoning regulations as
outlined in Section 17-0-05 and the applicable rules and regulations of the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources
and the Federal Emergency Management
Agency.
B. Due to the availability of new data,
the presence of new roads or other infrastructure, additional development, annexation and other zoning changes that
have occurred in the Village, changing
the zoning classification of the property
is appropriate.
C. The GDP maintains the desired
consistency of land uses, land use intensities, and land use impacts as related to
the environs of the Property.
ORDINANCE
NOW THEREFORE the Village Board
of the Village of Oregon, Dane County,
Wisconsin adopts the following ordinance:
Section 1. The recitals set forth
above are material to and are incorporated in this Ordinance as if set forth in full.
Section 2. Subject to the conditions
set forth in Section 4 below, the zoning
classification of the Property is changed
to Planned Development District and the
GDP is approved, pursuant to section 17914 of the Village Code and Wis. Stat.

62.23(7)(d).
Section 3. The following flexibilities
to the otherwise applicable requirements
of the Planned Business District are approved:
A. The PB zoning district does not
allow for a mix of residential uses. Flexibility is needed to allow for a mixed use
development.
B. The development will not provide
sufficient parking from the beginning of
PhaseII through the completion of Phase
III. 138 spaces will be available, but 153
will be required if adhering to the standards of the Zoning Ordinance, inclusive
of all available shared parking adjustments.
C. The minimum street setback of 25
feet is not met on all three sides of the lot.
The proposed street setback for Market
Street is 13 feet 8 inches, for Richards
Road it is 18 feet, and for Main Street it
is 17 feet.
D. At 18%, the proposed development does not meet the minimum landscape surface ratio (LSR) for the PB zoning district of 25%. (The existing LSR is
just under 24%.)
E. At 0.51, the proposed development exceeds the maximum floor area
ratio for the PB zoning district of 0.30.
Section 4. The approval of the General Development Plan will not be effective until all of the following conditions
have been satisfied:
A. Verification by the Village Engineer of adequate stormwater management for all phases of the Project.
B. Approval by Dane County of all
driveway access points serving the Property from North Main Street.
C. Approval by the Village Board and
recording of one or more instruments
providing for permanent cross-access
and shared parking within the Property
in a manner satisfactory to the Village
Board. This condition may be satisfied
using a condominium plat, or another
instrument deemed acceptable to the
Village.
D. Submission by the Applicant, to
the Village, of an amendment to the GDP
(specifically amending the Architectural Design Comments in ExhibitA),
that provides that each residential unit
within the Property, including units that

face the interior of the site, is provided


with a functional balcony having a minimum depth of 6 feet, and that is deemed
acceptable to the Villages Planning
Consultant. The amendment to the GDP
(if submitted), and the Village Planning
Consultants written approval of the
amendment, shall be deemed part of the
GDP approved by this ordinance. As an
alternative to submitting an amendment
to the GDP, this condition may be satisfied by the Applicant obtaining Specific
Implementation Plan approval for each
building containing residential units.
Section 5. The Property shall be developed and used in full compliance with
the General Development Plan and one
or more Specific Development Plans to
be approved by the Village. The General
Development Plan and Specific Development Plan shall constitute the zoning regulations for the Property, and may be enforced as any other zoning regulation in
the Village of Oregon. A copy of the General Development Plan and the Specific
Development Plan shall be maintained
and kept on file by the Village Clerk.
Section 6. If the conditions in Section 4 of this Ordinance have not been
satisfied by12:00 noononMarch 1, 2017,
or such later date as the Village Board
may approve, this Ordinance shall automatically, and without any further action,
become null and void and of no further
force or effect.
The above and foregoing Ordinance
was duly adopted by the Village Board
of the Village of Oregon at its meeting
held on September 19, 2016, by a vote of
six(6) in favor, zero (0) opposed, and zero
(0) not voting.

Reading the Scriptures with Humility


Daily reading of the Bible is a time-honored and
valuable tool for spiritual growth. There are systematic ways to do this that involve reading the Bible
from cover to cover over the course of a year (and
reading just three chapters a day will get you through
the Bible in one year). Alternatively, one can choose
to read and study one topic or book of the Bible at a
time, using study guides or commentaries. There is
no single right way to read the Bible, and you will
almost always find that you get something new out of
each and every reading; the scriptures are an endless
source of spiritual wisdom. In whatever fashion you
read the scriptures, however, it is important to do
so with humility, with an attitude of seeking versus
knowing. We should seek God with a humble spirit,
realizing that we are all in the position of children
trying to find our way in the world. We are, as it were,
lost in a strange world, and the Bible reminds us that
our true home is elsewhere, and that if we can only
follow Gods directions, we can find our way back
home. Christopher Simon, Metro News Service
Show me your ways, Lord, teach me your paths.
Psalm 25: 4 NIV

Boys cross country

Kugel plots the course for


Oregon at Smiley Invitational
JEREMY JONES
Sports editor

Senior Hudson Kugel


stepped up to lead the Oregon boys cross country
team for the first time Saturday at the 60th annual
Smiley Invitational at the
A m e r i c a n L eg i o n G o l f
Course in Wausau.
Kugel, who despite finishing second overall at the
state track and field meet in
the 800, had never ran cross
country before this season.
Still, he covered the 5k
course over the weekend in
17 minutes, 43 seconds to
finish 33rd overall.
Hudson was able to
get out ahead of the massive crowd of runners off
the line, head coach Erik
Haakenson said. Beginning in a good position was
key to a competitive race at
Smiley.
One second separated
senior Joshua Klahn and
Sam Hakes, who finished
43 and 45th overall in 17:56
an 17:57, respectively.
Ben Lokuta reached the
finish line as the teams
fourth runner in 18:38,
while Hogan Schulz rounded out the top five in 19:12.

Steele Mellum and Connor Brickley also competed,


but did not score as Oregon finished 12 out of the
24 teams competing with a
score of 311.
Smiley is a competitive
race that many of the guys
on the team look forward
to racing, Haakenson said.
We can always work on
becoming a more competitive team, however I am
pleased with their finish and
how all runners on the team
ran.
Eighth-ranked Sun Prairie took home top honors
over sixth-ranked Stevens
P o i n t a n d 1 5 t h - r a n ke d
Madison Memorial with a
team score of 62. The Cardinals placed all five varsity
scorers in the top 24.
Stevens Point finished
35 points back with a 97,
while Memorial rounded
out the top three thanks in
part to the runner-up finish
of Jonas Bietz (16:26).

Frank traversed the 5k
A m e r i c a n L eg i o n G o l f
Course in a team-best 20
minutes, 59 seconds.
Our girls really competed. I believe that we stress
the value of testing our
limits, challenge ourselves
against the best teams, use
these racing opportunities and daily practices to
continually improve for
our goals at the end of the
season, head coach Doug
Debroux said. This team
has done a great job of
focusing on us and we continue to work hard together
to make this team the best it
can be.
Kaity Kliminski and Lauren Beauchaine crossed
the finish line nine seconds
apart in 21:35 and 21:44,
taking 63rd and 67th place,
respectively.
Seventeen seconds separated Anna Verhagen and
Sarah Adams, who finished
89th and 102nd. Verhagen
covered the 5k course in

22:14 as the teams fourth


runner, while Adams followed in 22:31.
Julie Bull also competed
but did not score for the varsity team.
Oregon finished 15th out
of 22 schools at the prestigious meet with a team
score of 358.
We had many outstanding performances on Saturday at Smiley and everyone
continues to try surging in
races, work together with
a teammate(s) to strengthen our pack, and improve,
Debroux said.
Top-ranked Sun Prairie
continued to win everywhere they go, scoring a
team-best 43 points by placing all five varsity runners
in the top 17.
Ninth-ranked Stevens
Point finished second to
the Cardinals for the second time Saturday, posting
a 106. Fourth-ranked Eau

Head coach Liz Schneider


said the Oregon/Belleville
girls swimming swam very
competitively Tuesday as
was up for the challenge of
facing Badger South rival
Milton.
In the end though, the host
Red Hawks simply had a little bit more depth than the
Panthers who lost 101-67.
Although the ending
score doesnt show it, but
we were close to Milton
for a majority of the meet,
Schneider said. We had
some good times, and we
made some mistakes, but
overall the girls were there
to race and ready for a
rematch come conference.
These girls are inspiring
with they way they motivate

and support each other


through the good and the
bad, Schneider said.
Results were unavailable.

First grads remember


OHS Class of 1967 member Yvonne Ringstead Jorgensen said she and her classmates had to go through several schools before attending
the new high school during
their final year in the district.
In first grade, we were in
the village hall, and some kids
were in the churches that had
schools, she said. There use
to be some one-room schoolhouses, and three of them sat
there toward where the (district) swimming pool is. Then
we went to the Red Brick
school for seventh and eighth
grades, then an old stone,
two-story school that stood
where the swimming pool is
(for high school) before we
went to the new high school.

Weve been all over.
J o rg e n s e n s a i d p a r t ly because she had moved
around so much in the district,
and partly because she only
spent a year in the new high
school, the new building was
just going to another school.
Its sad to leave the school
you were having fun in, but
then you got to go into a new
school where everything was
brand-new and bigger, she
said. And it was all flat, as
we were in a two-story (high

Jorgensen and the OHS
Class of 1966 was the last
group to graduate from
eighth grade, with the subsequent creation of a junior
high school for seventh- and
eighth-graders in the Red
Brick building.
It used to be a big deal,
eighth-grade graduation,
because then you were going
right to high school, she said.
We were also the first class
to have an overnight class trip
before graduation. We were
the last, too, she added with
a laugh.
Thankfully, some other
things have changed in 50
years at the school. During
the 1966-67 school year,
girls didnt have sports

teams that would compete


against other schools; only
the boys, Jorgensen said.
Teams would be picked by
gym teachers for the afterschool programs.
It was about the only
thing I ever stayed in town
for, she said. There were
a lot of girls who were really athletic and should be
able to enjoy sports. I can
remember playing volleyball, basketball, baseball,

maybe. We just played


amongst ourselves.
Jorgensen said shes traveled to the high school in
recent months to watch her
grandson play sports, and is
amazed how different things
are.
Its the same area, but
nothing looks the same, she
said. The cafeteria is certainly nothing like we had
then. We were only in there
for one year after 50

years, the memory kind of


erases things.
OHS Class of 1967 member Beth Kellogg LePine
doesnt remember much
hubbub surrounding the
opening of the new school,
but said it definitely made a
positive first impression.
Im the kind of person
who likes things clean and
neat, and I was just really
impressed by that, she said.
After a while, a school gets
kind of yucky, and this was
really clean and neat; our
lockers opened and closed
easily. We were only there
for a short time.
These days, LePine hardly
recognizes the building from
the brand-new school she
attended a half-century ago.
Now when I drive by, its
What are they doing now
with all those big cranes?
she said.
