County supervisors may get pay raise
By Robert Ireland
RIreland@lakegenevanews.net
ELKHORN An ordinance narrowly
failed at the Walworth County Board meet-
ing that would have increased supervisor
pay by $100 a month. The chairperson
would have received a $200 a month pay
increase.
However, the increase may be approved
next month.
Changing supervisor pay needs eight
votes for approval, and it failed on a 7-3
vote. Supervisors Tim Brellenthin, Ken
Monroe and Carl Redenius voted against
it. Any pay change wouldnt take affect
until after the 2014 elections.
During the meeting, County Admin-
istrator David Bretl said there is a blank
ordinance affecting supervisor
pay, and if the supervisors didnt
approve something, they would
end up working for free during
their next term.
If you dont decide tonight
you will have to come up with a
number before November, Bretl
said.
After the measure failed, the
board tabled further action until
next month.
Supervisor Richard Brandl
wasnt at the May 14 meeting, and, assum-
ing all the others supervisors vote the same,
he could be the swing vote to approve the
pay increase.
On Monday, Brandl said he does sup-
port a pay increase for supervisors.
Im normally pretty con-
servative, but I think whoever
is going to be there deserves an
increase, Brandl said. I think its
time to do it, and it will probably
be another 10 years before it gets
done again.
Brandl said the position
requires a lot of time for supervi-
sors who eld phone calls and let-
ters.
Supervisors currently earn
$500 a month and the chairper-
son receives $1,000 a month.
I think the board needs that, they
have earned it, Supervisor Jerry Grant, of
Whitewater said of the increase.
Supervisor Joe Schaefer, of Lyons, said
he was paid more for his work as a super-
visor when he was rst elected than he is
today. Schaefer, the longest-serving board
member, was elected to the board in 1974.
I was making a heck of a lot more in
the 1970s and 1980s, he said.
In the 1980s Schaefer said board mem-
bers were paid for each committee meeting
that they attended.
After the meeting, County Board
Chairwoman Nancy Russell said the board
created a at pay rate to improve transpar-
ency. She said, although she didnt believe
this was happening, the public might think
the supervisors were meeting excessively
to increase their wages.
Grant also said supervisors dont
receive benets for their work.

ELKHORN Chandra Webster, former chief nancial
ofcer for Geneva Hospitality, has been given one more
chance to produce the accounting documents for The Cove
of Lake Geneva hotel, or she will face jail time for contempt
of court.
At a court hearing on
May 16, Judge John Race
said he will give Webster
until the end of this week
to produce the required
documents, or he will seri-
ously consider the request
by attorney Michael Polsky
that Webster serve her time
for contempt.
Polsky, the court-
appointed receiver for the
nancially-troubled Cove,
indicated frustration with
a lack of accounting infor-
mation provided by Geneva
Hospitality and with Websters refusal to answer questions
during two depositions that might have cleared up what
happened to the money.
Webster was cited for contempt by Race on Jan. 18 after
she failed to turn over nancial documents to the court.
That same month, Webster later showed up at Polskys
Milwaukee ofce with boxes of nancial documents. The
contempt order then was held in abeyance.
On May 10, Polsky entered a brief asking the court to
enforce the contempt order against Webster. Polsky argued
that the documents Webster turned over were inadequate,
and that she never turned over the accounting data as
ordered by the court.
The Condominium Association, owner of the 222-room
Cove of Lake Geneva, 111 Center St., was taken to court by
PNC Bank, Lake Geneva, in July 2012.
The bank alleges that payment for two loans, one for
$1.65 million made to the Cove in 2007 and an even earlier
loan for $250,000, were overdue.
Geneva Hospitality is not named in the lawsuit.
The Cove is a condotel.

Parking is more than marking some lines in a lot.
Its a delicate balancing act involving trafc ow, pedes-
trian ways, signage and infrastructure, according to Annaka
Norris, project manager for parking consultant Rich & Associ-
ates, Southeld, Mich.
In an interview last week, Norris said the parking study
will look at the citys parking system from top to bottom, from
signs used to announce parking areas to enforcement of park-
ing rules and restrictions.
This past week, Norris and
David Burr began an inventory and
started to measure how parking is
used in Lake Geneva.
The consultants are also using
data collected from the citys kiosks to determine useage of
downtown parking and how long customers use the metered
lots.
Public participation formally began May 15, as 30 or so
residents and city ofcials joined in a community workshop
session to share information and perspectives on the citys
parking needs and shortcomings.
Norris talked with the Regional News following the meet-
ing.
Rich and the citys parking commission put together three
surveys, one for general users, one for employees and one for
downtown business operators.
Residents can access the surveys on the citys website, or
get paper copies of the survey at the city hall, the library and
the chamber of commerce.
The surveys will be accepted until June 28, she said.
Norris said the city is asking residents to ll out the survey
that is appropriate to their situation.
A person may ll out more than one survey, but really, the
consultants are looking for just one survey per respondent,
she said.
Were looking for people to give their perceptions, Norris
said.
Norris said the consultants also want to determine what
draws people to Lake Geneva and what makes visitors want to
walk across town once they park.
That takes in issues such as, do sidewalks extend to all
parking areas? Are all parking areas well-lit?
What is security like at the parking lots?
During the public participation meeting on May 15, Norris
said employees parking in residential areas was a a big con-
cern.

What some area public schools are doing to improve security
Locked doors, peace of mind
By Steve Targo
steve@lakegenevanews.net
T
here was a day in schools when all the doors were
unlocked, Traver School Principal Craig Collins
said May 15. Those days are long gone now because its an
unnecessary risk.
Considering the idyllic surroundings of Collins school,
one may perhaps wonder what kind of risks hes talking
about.
After all, most of the land which abuts school property
is open elds.
Its likely that, from Traver School, one could see the
enemy coming from a mile away in any direction.
But as Collins warns, in this day and age, if youre too
loose, youre negligent.
His school is purchasing an electric strike system
for the front entrance, thanks to a $1,000 grant that Linn
police ofcer James Bushey secured from Walmart. Cur-
rently, Traver is accepting bids for the system.
I think it brings peace of mind, Collins said. It isnt a
bad idea. Its the peace of mind you get from added safety.
Along with the grant to pay for it, which makes it a rather
easy decision.
Collins said the system is more of an unlocking than
locking system. The door to the main ofce remains locked
until a staff member presses a doorbell-type button.
At Traver, there are two sets of main doors. Once one
steps through the rst set, which is usually unlocked
during the day, they can easily access the unlocked main
ofce which has no outside windows. Collins said with
the electric strike system, that ofce door will be locked
unless someone triggers the unlock button.
He said last fall, security company LaForce conducted
a security analysis of Traver.
They dont just look at the possibility of intruders,
Collins said. They take in the bigger picture.
He said the LaForce reps considered Traver as secure.
That lack of a main ofce window works well in that
regard.
They really thought that this building was secure
because of the way we do things, Collins said. One of the
things it also boils down to is glass, because glass can be
broken.
So why the system?
Bushey, who heads the DARE program at Traver, Reek
and Woods schools, said on May 16 that he pitched the idea
to Collins. DARE, or Drug Abuse Resistance Education, is
a police ofcer-led series of classroom lessons that teaches
stuidents how to resist peer pressure and live free of drugs
and violence.
With Traver, if someone walks in through the front
doors, theyre already in the school, Bushey said.
Bigger picture
At least twice a week, Bushey visits the administrators
at Traver, Reek and Woods. He said Linn police also have
increased their presence at Traver and Reek.
A couple years ago, people questioned why was there a
squad car parked out in front of the schools, Bushey said.
Now, they question us whenever its not in front of the
school.
In these post-Sandy Hook days, is the increased pres-
ence and frequent school security talks based on fear of
future shootings?
Bushey said a threat can derive from somewhere
else.
He and Collins brought up the recent armed robbery at
a Walworth gas station as an example. Suppose dangerous
subjects are eeing police in a vehicle and, for whatever
reason stop sticks are deployed or the car simply runs
out of gas it stops near Traver School.
What if those dangerous subjects also become desper-
ate enough to try to enter the school? What if they do and
they decide to take hostages?
This lock system can keep kids inside the school, a
more secure location, until we can get those outside prob-
lems under control, Bushey said. Thats one of the ideas I
presented to (Collins) with this door lock system.
Reek and Woods have a different system the Aiphone.
When someone wants to enter the school, he or she presses
a button and speak to school staff via an intercom-type
system.
From inside, the staff can unlock the doors. Bushey
said that last part bears a similarity to the electric strike
system that Traver is installing.
What Woods has and what Reek will be installing
are camera systems.
With the system that Woods has, and that Reek is
putting in, were looking also at remote access from our
squads, Bushey said, adding that its possible for video
feeds from the cameras to be called up on the laptops in
police squad cars.
What about Traver?
Weve actually had talks about that, Bushey said. Im
looking into other grants.
What parents should know
There have been no criminal or violent incidents
reported at Traver and Reek, Bushey said, and nothing he
was aware of in Woods. Perhaps thats because school staff
are taking the best offense is a good defense approach to
security from multiple angles not just lockdowns, but by
increased police presence at the schools.
Were constantly working to keep on top of the most
up-to-date security plans and response procedures,
Bushey said. Were constantly reviewing our risk man-
agement plans.
At least twice a year, by state law, schools must practice
lockdown procedures.
Bushey said there are different lockdown procedures
one if, for example, the search for suspects in the Walworth
armed robbery led them to the area of Traver, another for
something less dramatic but potentially more dangerous.
There are soft lockdown procedures we work on, too,
he said. Like, say, if theres a chemical spill outside the
building, like a tanker spill. We can keep the kids inside
the building.
On one hand, its easy to say since theres been no major
incidents at these schools, why bother? But being prepared
could mean the difference should the worst become a real-
ity.
The thing is always timing, Bushey said. How long
does it take a school to get secure?

Will expected tax relief allow ofcials to budget for a new village hall?
Genoa City closing out TID by 2014
By Steve Targo
steve@lakegenevanews.net
GENOA CITY The local tax rate relief
that ofcials have been predicting for years
is now on tap for 2014.
On May 9, the village board began the
closure of the Tax Incremental District, or
TID, which was created in 1997
as a way to fund infrastructure
improvements.
For years, ofcials have cited
the TID as one reason why Genoa
Citys local tax rate was so high.
Property tax revenue from
within the TID doesnt go to the
villages general fund.
Instead, it pays off the money
borrowed by the village to fund
capital improvements.
We borrowed money, Village
President Bill Antti said May 16,
adding that it was about $6 million.
The purpose of the TID is so you can
borrow money to do infrastructure-type
things to improve the area within your dis-
trict.
In an April 25 interview, Antti said the
problem in Genoa City is that almost half
of the village 44 percent is in the TID.
This left the remaining 56 percent to
support the general fund, which pays for
most municipal services.
We collect money, in the form of taxes,
but (the TID portion) didnt go to the regu-
lar tax base, Antti said May 16.
Now that the board adopted a resolu-
tion to close the TID and Genoa City has
notied the state, it is expected to brighten
the villages 2014 budget picture.
That should bring some tax relief to
people (because) the entire village is now
subject to the entire levy, not just 56 per-
cent of the village, he said. (Closing the
TID) increases the levy for the village, but
because there are more people now paying
into the general fund, the villages mill rate
goes down.
The mill, or tax, rate is used to calculate
how much taxes are paid.
For example, say the villages rate is $10
per $1,000 of equalized value.
For a $200,000 home, that person
would pay $2,000 to the village.
Portions of a Genoa City taxpayers bill
also go toward local school districts, such
as Brookwood and Badger, the state, the
county and Gateway Technical College.
The village hall situation
With more tax revenue going into the
2014 budget, does this mean there will be
a new Genoa City Village Hall in the near
future?
There has not been a deci-
sion, and I want to make that
clear, Antti said.
But he said there may be a line
item in the 2014 budget for a new
village hall.
On April 25, Antti said he
doesnt want anybody to see a
tax rate increase just so we can do
something to the village.
He supplied this scenario:
If the rate drops from $10 to $5,
hed want the village hall project
to create a minimal increase, if
any, to around $7 per $1,000 of equalized
value.
At this point, the tax rate itself and the
future of the village hall project can only be
speculated.
On May 16, Antti said ofcials wont
know for sure what the new village tax rate
will be until a nal budget is adopted.
Typically, ofcials and department
heads begin the process of creating a budget
proposal in late summer or early fall.
Why do something to the village hall?
Ofcials have expressed concerns about
existing problems with the current hall at
715 Walworth St.
Previously, Antti and Village Trustee
Karen Bullock have said in interviews that
there are concerns with the building, such
as air quality, asbestos, a leaky roof and
lack of space for village departments.
Bullock is chairwoman of the Village
Hall Committee, which the board created
to research ways to address the situation.
I guess my feeling right now is, if
everything were perfect with the current
village hall, it still wouldnt be adequate to
serve the needs of the community, Antti
said April 25. But on May 16, Antti said as
early as its next regular meeting, the board
may hire a coonsultant to conduct a feasi-
bility study. He said it looks like they have
three options repair the current village
hall, purchase an existing building to use
as a village hall or build a new hall.

THE BASEMENT OF the Genoa
City Village Hall is the location
of a few key problems, includ-
ing asbestos tiles (top) which
are aking off the oor and
water seepage issues (right).
According to Karen Bullock, a
village trustee who chairs the
Village Hall Subcommittee, the
paint has bubbled off the walls
very badly on the east side of
the building. In some spots, the
bubbles are an inch deep.

City OKs Kiosk
maintenance pact
By John Halverson
jhalverson@lakegenevanews.net
Alderman Jeff Wall said it sounded like
pretty expensive insurance.
City administrator Dennis Jordan said
if the city didnt have it, it could prove even
more costly.
The issue was whether to spend
$45,000 this year to sign a maintenance
agreement for the citys kiosks.
The decision on the issue was initially
stalled because city attorney Dan Draper
expressed concerns about some stipula-
tions in the contract.
The council voted at its May 13 meet-
ing to approve the contract if those issues
were worked out. City council members
Wall and Sarah Hill voted no.
Jordan told the Regional News this
week that the issues were resolved so the
contract was approved.
The current maintenance agreement
with Automated Parking Technology ran
out in April.
A full year of the agreement is $60,000
so the $45,000 represents a pro-rated
amount, Jordan explained at the meeting.
Did the last council know they were
going to be paying this when they approved
the kiosks? Wall asked.
Jordan assured Wall that they did.
He also noted that the city brought in
$767,000 in parking revenues last year so
the kiosks were well worth its expense.
If the agreement is
not approved, the city
would have to pay time
and labor each time the
company made repairs,
Jordan explained.
In addition, there
would be no time frame
for repair if there was
no maintenance agree-
ment.
Under the mainte-
nance agreement, the
company would make any repairs immedi-
ately during the work week.
The city does have an extra kiosk in
case one goes down.
If more than one would be needed, the
city would have to pay at least $11,000 to
buy another one.
Try to nd some other company to do
the work?
The kiosks are proprietary mean-
ing only the company that built them can
repair them.
It was suggested that if one kiosk did
go down, that those wanting to park would
simply have to go to another station.
Jordan indicated that might just be
another irritant to those already unhappy
with the kiosks.
Jordan said that it might turn out,
based on this summers experience, that
insurance wouldnt be needed next year if
there were few calls for repairs.

Residents living near
Main Street say that beach-
goers and downtown
employees park on their
streets, taking up spaces that
residents believe should be
for them, Norris said.
The general complaint
was that someone was always
parked in front of their
homes and theres always
something going on.
The possibility of build-
ing a parking structure also
came up.
The problem with park-
ing structures is that they are
expensive, Norris said. The
Rich report will deal with
building a parking structure
and paying for it, she added.
Rich & Associates was
hired by the city council in
November 2012 for $26,325
to conduct the overview of
the citys parking system and
its operations.
Lake Genevas balanc-
ing act involves providing
enough parking for peak
tourist season without over-
building parking infrastruc-
ture, Norris said.
You cant build a park-
ing lot or structure for your
peak days, because it will go
unused during normal and
nonpeak times, Norris said.
On the other hand, you dont
want to turn people away
because there isnt enough
parking, she added. The
citys population is ofcially
about 7,800. But it can bal-
loon to nearly 20,000 during
a busy summer day, espe-
cially during special events.
The infrastructure of
the downtown is not built for
that many people, Norris
said.
The parking infrastruc-
ture in place now seems to t
Lake Geneva the city, but it
feels strained when dealing
with Lake Geneva the tourist
destination, she said.
Norris said she expects
the preliminary report to be
completed in early August
and the nal report will be
completed by late August or
early September.
The nal report will ana-
lyze the citys entire parking
system, she said.
Norris said Rich & Asso-
ciates wants to give the city
a whole set of tools to deal
with parking issues. Pro-
posed solutions will be for
the immediate needs, per-
ceived needs ve years down
the road and even those that
may not show for another 20
years or so.
Rich & Associates con-
sultants started invento-
rying downtown parking
spaces and buildings early
last week.
This week, Norris and
fellow Rich consultant, David
Burr, principal in charge, are
doing what is called a turn-
over and occupancy account-
ing during the off-peak
season.
Counts were taken on
Thursday and Saturday, to
account for weekday and
weekend differences.
In July, the consultants
will be back to do a similar
study during the peak tour-
ist season.
Norris said Rich is also
using data collected from
the citys kiosks to determine
usage of downtown parking
and how long customers use
the metered lots.
She said the parking
kiosks are becoming more
and more common across
the country.
They are more exible
than the old parking meters,
taking credit cards and paper
money and it can notify car
owners by cell phone when
their time on the parking
meter is about to run out,
giving those with the right
app the ability to add time
to the meter from their cell
phones.
And how do people nd
the parking, both free and
metered?
Most cities, both nation-
ally or internationally, use
green or blue signs to desig-
nate parking areas.
Signs need to work
together, Norris said. A
whole family of signs is
needed to make sure the
message gets through to
harried and attention-chal-
lenged drivers that parking
is located in certain areas,
she said.
The options for parking
By John Halverson
A parking structure.
A shuttle.
An overhead like the L in Chicago.
OK. Maybe not the last one.
There were ideas galore presented at two
meetings last week with members of a con-
sulting group that the city has hired to look at
solutions to parking congestion in downtown
Lake Geneva. There was one meeting with
business people and another for citizens at
large. City council members also attended.
Here are the options discussed and the
pros and cons brought up at those meetings:
A parking structure
On paper it seems like the easiest solu-
tion. In reality, its the most complicated.
For starters it would cost at least $6 mil-
lion to build. That would take a bite out of
whats left in the citys $8 million TIF 4 fund.
And thats for a basic structure. Something
more aesthetically pleasing would probably
cost more.
Where would it be built?
Several locations were discussed includ-
ing the current locations of the old Traver
Hotel and the Regional News.
And if it were built, would people use it?
Theres a parking structure in Burling-
ton that nobody uses. A similar structure in
Lake Geneva one would probably be sparsely
populated most of the year, several people
said.
One idea was to have a parking structure
with retail shops on the rst oor to entice
customers and help pay for it. Part of the
issue is that at least some of the downtown
stalls are taken up by employees. No matter
what employers say, theres little they can do
to make employees park in less busy areas.
One business person offers his employ-
ees incentives to ride bicycles to work.
A lot of problems would be solved if
people were willing to walk a few blocks.
Whether its employees or visitors, people
seem unwilling to walk a few blocks to down-
town even though theyre more than willing
to walk about the same distance in a mall
parking lot. Already city lots, like the one
at Eastview School, dont ll up and theyre
only a few blocks from downtown.
Apparently, people dont expect a walking
experience when they come to Lake Geneva
unless its downtown or on the lake path.
Shuttle
As for a shuttle, one already runs between
the Petco parking lot and downtown during
key weekends of the year.
The problem is too few people know about
it because its not operating often enough,
and it doesnt appear to be cost effective to
run it more. Would visitors be willing to pay
a nominal fee to get shuttled back and forth?
And would a shuttle clog up downtown
trafc as much as the cars that drive around
in circles looking for parking?
Other factors are the lake cruises and the
beach. Many stalls are used by people riding
the Gage boats or using the beach. Off-site
parking will be especially challenging for
beach-users dragging along chairs and cool-
ers.
One of the options the consultants might
consider is a meter pricing system that would
give people an incentive to park farther
away.

Subcontractor avoids prison in theft case
A 37-year-old Pell Lake subcontractor
was sentenced May 13 to four years of pro-
bation after he used money meant for mate-
rials on personal expenses.
Jason Bader, W192 Tulip Drive, is the
owner of J & J Sealcoating.
As a condition of his probation, Bader
must serve six months in jail with work-
release privileges. He also must pay
$103,423 in restitution.
A sentence of two years in prison and
two years of extended supervision was
imposed and stayed. This means that if
Bader violates the terms of his probation he
will serve that prison sentence.
The complaint stems from when Basso
Builders subcontracted J & J Sealcoating
for a development project known as the
Meadow Lands Subdivision, in the city of
Lake Geneva.
As part of the development project, the
subdivision streets needed to be paved.
After the roads were paved, the owner-
ship of the roads would transfer from the
construction company to the city of Lake
Geneva.
Basso Builders entered into a contract
with J & J Sealcoating, which
agreed to pay the subcontractor
$36,900 to do the black top work
in the subdivision.
After the contract was signed,
Basso Builders paid J & J Seal-
coating $18,450 as a down pay-
ment, according to the criminal
complaint.
The company later paid the
sealcoaters an additional $15,360.
Bader was found guilty at jury
trial on Dec. 6, 2012, of two counts
of theft by contractor.
According to the criminal complaint:
Before the city of Lake Geneva could
take ownership of the subdivision, a con-
struction lien was put on the Meadow Lands
Subdivision by an asphalt supplier.
The asphalt supplier placed the $19,155
construction lien on the subdivision because
it never received payment for the asphalt by
Bader.
On Sept. 23, police interviewed Bader,
who stated Basso Builders owes him
$25,000.
Bader told police that because he needed
money he agreed to stay with the
Meadow Lands Subdivision job
even though he felt he was being
underpaid.
Bader submitted a check to the
asphalt supplier, but it bounced
because he had a tax lien on his
account. Bader told law enforce-
ment that he was involved in a
bankruptcy proceeding.
Law enforcement questioned
Bader on what happened to the
$33,000 that he was paid for the
job, and Bader said he used it to pay for sup-
plies, his employees salaries, trucking and
fuel costs.
Bader said at the end of the job he was
in the hole. Bader told law enforcement
that he was poor at bookkeeping, and that
Basso owed him money.
Bader said he would provide paperwork
to law enforcement to show that he was in
fact owed money.
On Oct. 7, police again spoke to Bader
who said he had been busy and didnt have a
chance to look into any of the paperwork.
Bader told a Walworth County Sheriffs
Department Detective the matter was the
least of his worries because he did nothing
wrong and he was the one who got screwed
out of money.
On Dec. 10, the Walworth County detec-
tive received a voice mail from Bader, which
stated he had a bonre and burned many of
the records regarding the matter.
Law enforcement interviewed the
asphalt supplier, who said Bader sent his
company checks, but all of the checks
bounced because of insufcient funds.
The Walworth County Sheriffs Depart-
ment obtained copies of Baders bank
records, which showed several withdrawals
from the same account in which Bader had
deposited the check from Basso.
The withdrawals included Show Boat
of Lyons, Red Box DVD rental, Charter
Communications, Time Warner Cable, the
National Collectors Mint and a check to a
law ofce with a notation of DUI.
On June 21, Bader was found guilty in
Racine County of fourth-offense drunken
driving, which stemmed from an Oct. 14,
2009 arrest. Bader was sentenced to 60
days in jail with work-release privileges.

Peller Investments Inc. and Lake Geneva
have decided to settle a special assessment
case involving the Edwards Boulevard exten-
sion.
The Lake Geneva City Council agreed on
May 13 to a settlement in which the city pays
$41,000 to Peller, Glencoe, Ill., and credits
$80,963 against the property owners assess-
ment.
In addition, both parties will assume their
own court costs.
The cash and credit will reduce the
assessment against Pellers Edwards Boule-
vard property from $314,303 to $233,340.
The Peller property is just north of the Target
and Best Buy properties and covers 13 acres.
The city argued that the Edwards Bou-
levard extension from Interchange North
to Highway 50 beneted the Peller prop-
erty most and, therefore, Peller should pay
a proportionately larger share of the special
assessment. The case went through Walworth
County Circuit Court and the state Appeals
Court before the two sides decided to reach
an agreement.
Upon release of the payment and credits,
execution of an order on the special assess-
ments and a release from Peller, the issue will
be dismissed by the court with prejudice.
City Administrator Dennis Jordan said
the money for the settlement will come from
the citys Tax Increment Finance district
budget. He said the Edwards Boulevard proj-
ect came in under budget, and there is enough
left in the road project line item to cover the
cost of the settlement.
The city bought 3.6 acres from Peller
along the Edwards extension for a retention
basin in 2010.
By the citys calculations, that increased
the Peller propertys frontage by several hun-
dred feet, and they charged Peller for it in the
special assessment.
Peller disagreed.
In March 2012, Walworth County Judge
James Carlson ruled that the city has improp-
erly assessed the Peller property for the cost
of the road. The city had calculated other
properties by their frontage to the road, as
opposed to Peller, which had been assessed
according to the property that abutted city-
owned property.
Complicating the issue, Ryan Cos. Inc.,
which owns the Target store, gave the city a
$600,000 payment in lieu of assessment.
Peller argued that it was unreason-
able for the city to allocate the balance of
the Ryan Cos. payment to cover the exempt
Department of Transportation parcel along
Edwards Boulevard rather than using the
funds to offset the total cost of the project for
all affected parties.
Carlson agreed with Peller.
He ruled that the $600,000 donation
from Ryan Cos. should have been applied
uniformly over the lineal footage of the spe-
cial assessment.
The state appeals court upheld Carlsons
decision on the assessment, saying that all
assessments must be calculated on an equal
basis, in this case road frontage.
However, the appeals court also ruled the
Carlson was out of line in ruling the $600,000
donation from Ryan Cos. had to be applied
equally over the lineal footage of the special
assessment. According to the appeals court
decision, the $600,000 donation was the
result of a development agreement between
the city and Ryan Cos. and the city had the
right to apply the money as it saw t.
Nothing in the development agreement
with Ryan Cos. required the city to apply the
remainder (of the payment) in any particular
way, the appeals court ruled.
Other property owners along Edwards
Boulevard included Ryan Cos. (Target);
Wight River Crossings, which has since led
for bankruptcy; the state DOT, which is High-
way 12 and its rights of way; the city of Lake
Geneva owns two parcels and two parcels are
owned by Lake Geneva Investors LLC.
Lake Geneva Investors LLC was exempted
because the properties are fronted by an
existing road.
State DOT property is exempted by law.
The city pays its own portion of the spe-
cial assessment.

The hotel rooms in the building are owned by individu-
als.
Geneva Hospitality was removed as the Coves man-
agement company in November 2012. Before a court order
could be given or a new manager hired, Webster and others
reportedly removed laptop and desktop computers along
with the digital and paper records
Geneva Hospitality argues that the computers and
records were its property.
Since then, Polsky has been trying to track down
money paid by the condo owners to Geneva Hospitality for
the addition of a banquet facility, which PNC bank claims
it never received.
Race did not act on Polskys request to jail Webster. He
noted that Webster is not a defendant in the lawsuit. But he
again ordered Webster to turn over the records required by
the receiver, setting the deadline for this week.
Websters attorney, Jerome F. Buting, Brookeld,
argued that Webster turned over all of the nancial docu-
ments in her possession.
The court, however, disagreed with Butings assess-
ment.
Buting argued that because of statements made by
Polsky and Lake Geneva Police Chief Michael Rasmus-
sen alleging criminal wrongdoing, Webster has a real
and appreciable fear statements she makes will be used
against her later.
A Dec. 26, 2012, letter, sent from Rasmussen to Cove
room owners says in part:
The city of Lake Geneva Police Department in conjunc-
tion with the Wisconsin Department of Justice Division of
Criminal Investigation, the FBI and the IRS have opened
an investigation into Salvatore Sardina and Chandra Web-
ster, the owners of your former management group, Geneva
Hospitality.
This investigation involves misappropriation of funds
that were to be set aside for mortgage payments related to
the banquet facility. If you are an owner of one or more of
the condo units, we will need your help.
Please refer to the attached letter, which outlines
records and supporting documents you will need to obtain.
Please follow the directions in the attached letter and per-
sonally deliver fax or mail the information to the Lake
Geneva Police Department, attention: Cove Investigation.
Deadline for complaints was Jan. 18.
Polsky argued the documents that Webster turned over
do not provide enough information to determine the trail of
the missing money, which Polsky estimates at $634,604.
Polsky said bank records for Geneva Hospitality are
missing for important months after he was appointed
receiver. No money has been turned over to the receiver by
Geneva Hospitality since it was terminated as hotel man-
ager, he said.
In his May 10 brief, Polsky wrote: Webster is guilty of
hiding relevant accounting information constructing road
blocks to the receivers attempts to get to the truth and
theft of hundreds of thousands of dollars from the unit
owners.
Buting said Webster turned over all of the documents
in her possession and even documents that were the prop-
erty of Geneva Hospitality.
Buting also argued that, as a matter of law, Webster is
not subject to contempt in a civil case unless she is rst
granted immunity. Websters attorney also contests Pol-
skys claim of unaccounted funds. He said that the receiv-
ers belief is based on an inventory of nancial documents
done by the new management rm, IDM, Madison.
But Buting argues that the IDM inventory is awed.
Most of what (IDM) thinks is missing has either never
existed or is no longer in Websters possession and can no
longer be produced, he said.
Webster did say during the depositions that she believes
she turned over all bank statements and documents in her
possession.
According to Polsky, certain account records showed
transfers of $76,000, $95,000 and $100,000 by Geneva
Hospitality to an unidentied account just before the hotel
was placed in receivership.
The court also heard testimony that Geneva Hospitality
received $65,000 from a Groupon coupon promotion for
the Cove. The money was never turned over to the Cove or
to the receiver, Polsky claims.
Polsky argues that Webster was given the chance to clear
her name and provide documents to the receiver to clear up
questions about where the missing funds are located.
She refused, he said.
In his brief supporting contempt against Webster,
Polsky cites the following.
n Webster did not answer questions regarding missing
documents and funds.
n She would not say whether any funds owed to unit
owners exists in an account anywhere today and if they do
exist, where they are deposited.
n She took the Fifth when asked what line of business
Geneva Hospitality was in.
She also took the Fifth on:
n The number of accounts Geneva Hospitality has
now.
n Whether Geneva Hospitality has closed any bank
accounts since January 2012.
n Where rental funds were deposited.
n Whether Geneva Hospitality has an account any-
where.
Webster was deposed on March 18 and again on April
15. In the record of the April deposition, attorneys Buting
and David C. Williams, representing Geneva Hospitality,
spoke more often in response to questions by attorneys
David Pelletier and Polsky than Webster, raising multiple
objections to questions on and advising her not to answer
on Fifth Amendment grounds.
Pelletier represents an ofcial committee of Cove condo
owners.

Up until the 1990s we had
complete health insurance, we
did get criticized for that, and we
got rid of it, Schaefer said.
During the debate on pay
raises, Supervisor Tim Schiefel-
bein was the rst supervisor to
voice opposition.
I would be opposed to an
increase in supervisor salaries,
Supervisor Tim Brellenthin, of
rural Elkhorn said.
Supervisor Rick Stacey, of
rural East Troy, said his rst
response is to agree with Brellen-
thin.
However, he said the amount
of time supervisors spend doing
their jobs is incredible.
It is a lot of travel, and it is
a lot of speaking to constituents,
Stacey said. There is a lot of work
involved.
Supervisor David Weber, of
Williams Bay, said it is a question
of respect for the position.
None of us are running for
ofce for the level of compensa-
tion, Weber said.
Some of the supervisors
argued for a pay raise for the
chairwoman and not the supervi-
sors.
I would support an increase
for the chair, but I would be
against it for the supervisors,
Carl Redenius, of the town of
Richmond, said.
Supervisor Tim Schiefelbein said he
declines to take his pay, but voted in favor
of the ordinance because he said his peers
on the board work hard and deserve a
salary increase.
To operate at this level takes
a lot of commitment, Schiefel-
bein said.
The work involved
After the meeting, Rus-
sell opened up her calendar
and showed meetings that she
planned on attending.
Nearly everyday had at least
one meeting, most had more.
She said attending meetings
only scratches the surface of her
job. There is a lot reading and
telephone calls at home. She said
she probably spends close to 40
hours a week working on county
board issues.
Russell said she became the
chairwoman in 2007, and she has
served on the board since 2002.
Her workload dramatically
increased when she became the
chairwoman, she said.
Attendance required
Can a supervisor get elected,

We usually dont have that
problem, Russell said. This
board has really good atten-
dance. However, Russell and
Bretl said if the situation came
up, the board has an ordinance
that will allow it to remove an
absent supervisor.
Bretl said a supervisor can
be removed for missing two consecutive
board meetings and three consecutive
committee meetings without an excuse.
Russell said it is rare for a board
member not to show up to a meeting with-
out her knowing about it ahead of time.

LAKE GENEVA NEWS
By Chris Schultz
Owners of historic homes and business
buildings who renovate and restore those
properties qualify for both state and federal
income tax reductions.
Jen Davel, senior preservation archi-
tect with the Wisconsin Historical Society
brought that information to the Lake Geneva
City Councils Committee of the Whole on
May 6 with information about tax breaks for
historic building owners.
The tax break was instituted in 1992, but
the state didnt set aside money to advertise
the write-off, Davel said.
The write-off is split into two programs,
one for historic homeowners and one for
owners of historic business buildings.
The write-offs are equal to 25 percent of
eligible expenses for maintenance and repair,
Davel said.
She said the money comes back to the
owner as a reduction in their income taxes,
not a tax refund.
That same tax credit applies to income
producing commercial buildings and rent
producing buildings, Davel said.
For commercial properties, the program
is federal, again providing owners with a tax
write-off of 25 percent of the cost of renova-
tions, but this time with the federal govern-
ment providing 20 percent and the state pro-
viding the remaining 5 percent, Davel said.
She said the state Legislature is now con-
sidering increasing the states share of the
write-off, so commercial building owners
would be able to write off as much as 40 per-
cent. However, that increase is still pending,
she said.
Lake Geneva has two historical districts
and seven individual listed sites, Davel said.
Houses and businesses in the districts
and the seven individual structures would all
qualify, she said. Davel said her job has been
to reach out to city councils and historic pres-
ervation groups around the states, informing
them of the tax write-off program.
The write-off also includes outbuildings,
such as barns and carriage houses, she said.
To be eligible, the house or building must
be a registered historic structure.
No plaque identifying the home as his-
toric is necessary.
We know which homes qualify, Davel
said.
Work must be preapproved by the Wis-
consin Historical Society and must be a
minimum or $10,000 and a maximum of
$40,000. Eligible work includes repairs and
rehabilitations to the exterior of the historic
house, repair of the structural system, repair
or replacement of the mechanical systems
and/or electrical systems.
Tax write-offs for homes will vary from
$2,500 to $10,000.
While theres a limit on the tax write-offs
per project, there is no limit to the number of
project applications an owner can make on a
single property, Davel said.
Owners then choose whether the project
will take from two to ve years.
Under the federal program for commer-
cial buildings, anything to do with the build-
ing is eligible for a write-off.
Ineligible work would include new con-
struction, landscaping, parking lot or move-
able equipment, she said.
What does not qualify as new construc-
tion is changing a section of a house or build-
ing to its original conguration.
For example, homeowners restored a reg-
ular door on the side of their historic home by
replacing a sliding glass door, with a regular
door similar to the one that had been there
before. More information about the program,
is at www.wisconsinhistory/hp/architecture/
taxcredit.asp.
Tax credit available for historic restorations
A HISTORICAL HOME in Lake Geneva. This
home was built in 1847.
HISTORICAL HOMES THROUGHOUT the state are eligible for tax credits if work is done
to restore the house. The citys Maple Park district is home to many historical homes.

WILLIAMS BAY Call it a clean slate
or call it a double whammy, but both of
Williams Bays top school ofcials tendered
their resignations Monday night.
Williams Bay Superintendent Vance
Dalzin announced that he was selected by
the Fox Point-Bayside School Board as the
new superintendent in the upscale, subur-
ban Milwaukee school district.
Barry Butters, principal of Williams
Bay Junior-Senior High School, resigned to
take a position outside of public education
with Precision Plus Inc., Elkhorn.
The Williams Bay School Board reluc-
tantly accepted their resignations, both
effective June 30. The board members will
meet Thursday morning
to begin setting criteria
to nd replacements for
the two administrators.
According to the Fox
Point-Bayside schools
website, Dalzin was the
unanimous choice of the
Fox Point-Bayside board
at its May 17 meeting.
Butters said he will
establish education and
training procedures in
manufacturing for Precision Plus employ-
ees. He said he will be involved in recruit-
ment, as well.
Dalzin and Butters both started in the
Williams Bay district in August 2011. But-
ters took over for long-time principal Dan
Bice, who retired after 21
years as principal, and
Dalzin replaced Fred
Vorlop, who stepped
down as district superin-
tendent after eight years.
A n no u nc e me nt s
when Bice and Vorlop
were leaving didnt seem
to surprise many.
But Dalzin and But-
ters have had only two
school years together in
Williams Bay.
While their resignations didnt exactly
catch the board by surprise, board mem-
bers said they were sorry to approve their
departures.
I want to thank these two gentlemen
for all their work over the past two years,
said school board member Jim Pfeil. I feel
were a better district now than we were
two years ago.
Dalzin said the Fox Point-Bayside
position was an opportunity he could not
ignore.
Taking the job at Fox Point-Bayside did
not indicate any unhappiness with Williams
Bay, the schools, staff or board, he said.
The Williams Bay School Board is doing
good things and Williams Bay remains a
high quality school district, Dalzin told the
board members.
This resignation does not reect any
lack of support from the school board, Dr.
Dalzin or the staff, Butters said of his res-
ignation.

STEPHANIE KLETT, Wisconsin secretary of tourism, cut the ribbon at The Abbey Resorts 50th anniversary celebration May
17. Along with Klett, (from left), Village Trustee George Spadoni, State Representative Tyler August, State Senator Neal Kedzie,
State Represenative Amy Loudenbeck, Village Trustee Bill Gage, (in back) Village Trustee Cindy Wilson, the Abbey general
manager David Lindelow and Village Trustee Tom McGreevy were honored guests at the fundraiser.
Abbey celebrates 50 years,
raises cash for Open Arms
By Jade Bolack
JBolack@lakegenevanews.net
FONTANA After 50 years, The Abbey Resort stands
as a tribute to the community.
The Rev. Dan Sanders, former pastor of St. Benedict
Catholic Church in Fontana, said the Friday, May 17, anni-
versary celebration was not about the building.
Its about the community created here, he said. Its
not about the history of the building. The Abbey is a major
piece of the community.
Sanders is on the board of directors of the Open Arms
Free Clinic in Elkhorn. All money raised at the May 17 gala
went to the clinic.
I got goose bumps when I found out Open Arms would
benet from this event, Sanders said. I wanted to give a
gift back.
After the 9/11 attacks in New York, Sanders said Fon-
tana residents were instrumental in sending help to those
in need. One of the rst responders from New York sent
Sanders a steel cross from the beams in the World Trade
Center.
I wanted to return this cross to the community and
to the Abbey, Sanders said. I want it to be a sign to the
community of the clinics gratitude to the Abbey and to the
residents here.
Tom Whowell, an owner of Gordys Lakefront Marine,
served as community historian for the evening and shared
the beginnings of the Abbey.
Where the Abbey sits, this was all one large swamp,
Whowell said. The village board was offered this land
from the owners. The village board was famous for doing a
lot of wonderful things. The board refused to buy.
The private owner of the swamp land sold the property
to a developer, and the Abbey was built.
I dont think the Abbey staff gets as much credit as
they deserve, Whowell said. They help with all sorts of
fundraisers. It benets everyone in the community.
Whowell said any group that approached the Abbey for
help raising money was welcomed.
Its a good thing that the Abbey is here, he said.
Several Abbey employees were recognized for 25 or
more years of service.
One Abbey employee was especially honored for her
50 years of employment at the resort. Beverlee Conrad has
worked there since the very beginning.
See a future edition of the Regional News for more
about Conrad and her experiences at the Abbey.
Included as honored guests were Stephanie Klett, Wis-
consin secretary of tourism, Sen. Neal Kedzie (R-Elkhorn),
Rep. Amy Loudenbeck (R-Clinton), Rep. Tyler August (R-
Lake Geneva), Village President Arvid Pete Petersen and
other village trustees.
The gala included a silent fundraiser with nearly 30
items, including golf packages at Geneva National, spa
stays at the Abbey and tickets to Brewers, White Sox and
Cubs games.
Lori Bradley, marketing coordinator at the resort, was
unable to provide an estimate of funds raised by press
time.

WALWORTH AUTHOR Trudy Schubert, released her new
book, Monkey See, Monkey Do.
Walworth author releases 8th book
A monkey that
climbs towers?
By Jade Bolack
WALWORTH Many of the names in Trudy Schuberts
new book, Monkey See Monkey Do, sound familiar.
She likes to honor people in her life by memorializing
them in her books.
Her son, Curt Otto, a commu-
nications tower climber, didnt like
that idea, though.
Curt made me change his
name in the book, Schubert said.
Duh, his picture is in there. He
said just put in a different name. I
always use names that I know. Ste-
vens, Rauland and a couple of the
workers in Fontana are in there,
but my son doesnt want his name
in it.
Schubert has written eight
books and donated the money
raised to charities and organiza-
tions.
Her newest book revolves around Chris Stevens, a com-
munications tower climber who trains a monkey to assist
him on the climbs.
The monkey, Kiekie, is named in honor of Keith
Kroll, managing partner at the Egg Harbor Cafe in Lake
Geneva.
Based on her sons life, Schubert said Curt always joked
about training a monkey to carry his tool bag.
He climbs the towers, and he always said he wanted to
train a monkey to carry up his tools, she said. I thought
(to myself), keep talking, this (her sons idea to train a
monkey) will make a great story.
Curt never trained a monkey, but Schubert said Capu-
chin monkeys can be trained to assist humans similar to
dogs.

Oak Knolls residents gripe over solicitors
By Jade Bolack
WALWORTH The no solicitors sign on the front
door cant keep everyone from knocking.
Over the past few weeks, residents in Walworths Oak
Knolls neighborhood have opened doors to a man from
Edward Jones, an investment rm, according to Fred
Schubert, a village resident.
Schuberts wife, Trudy, gave the Regional News copies
of several emails from residents in the neighborhood, in
which residents say the man asked personal questions
about their families.
The village board may amend the ordinance, which
currently mandates transient merchants register with the
village when selling products but not services.
This man comes to the door,
Schubert said. Hes asking how many
children you have and so on. There are a
bunch of people here that dont want it.
Schubert and several residents came
to the village board meeting May 13.
We dont have services listed in the
denition of transient merchants, Vil-
lage President David Rasmussen said at
the meeting. We really only refer to the
sale of goods in the ordinance.
Currently, the man from Edward
Jones and others seeking to sell services
within the village can go door-to-door without registering.
Unless, Rasmussen said, the resident has a no solici-
tors sign prominently displayed.
The sign would make what they do illegal.
The Schuberts sign didnt stop the Edward Jones
employee from ringing their doorbell.
We have no soliciting right on our door, Fred Schubert
said. He rang the bell anyway.
Merchants seeking to sell products must register at vil-
lage hall, but there is no bar to general soliciting.
At the very least we want to include services (in the
ordinance), Rasmussen said. I dont know if (we) can
completely ban it.
Charitable organizations are already exempted from
the ordinance and do not need to register with the village
before going door-to-door.
The ordinance amendment was sent to the villages gen-
eral services committee and the full board will vote on it
later in the year.
Rasmussen
He said that starting with Act 10, there are rules and
regulations coming down from the state that will make it
difcult for him to continue as principal.
The staff here are very hard working and should be
recognized as such, Butters said. Yet, he said, the state
Legislature continues to propose and pass new mandates
for schools and teachers without providing the funding or
resources necessary to carry them through.
Its becoming increasingly difcult to maintain excel-
lence, he said.
Butters said he talked with the school board about his
career change in April.
Dianna Woss, school board president, said she recog-
nized that education professionals must take advantage of
rare opportunities for growth and advancement.
Both administrators leave while the district studies
whether to build a new elementary school near or as part of
the junior-senior high school building at 500 Geneva St.
Woss said in an earlier interview that Dalzin had been
open with the board about testing the waters at other dis-
tricts.
In April, Dalzin was also among six semi-nalists for
the superintendents position at the Greeneld School Dis-
trict. Greeneld is also a Milwaukee suburb.
Woss also said that, in a perfect world, it would be
preferable to have Dalzin remain at least until the board
decided what course it will take with the elementary
school.
However, Woss said that the process of reviewing ele-
mentary school alternatives is started, and whether the
district builds the new school is up to the districts elec-
tors.
Before coming to Williams Bay, Butters was a math
teacher in the Elkhorn School District. He had been a
teacher at Elkhorn since 1994.
Butters was athletic director and an assistant principal
at the Wilmot school district from 1987 to 1991 and then
went to Viroqua, where he was a principal from 1991 to
1992.
He left Viroqua for family reasons and returned to
Wilmot from 1992 to 1994 before taking the teaching posi-
tion at Elkhorn.
The company he is going to, Precision Plus, makes pre-
cision parts for a variety of manufacturers, including those
in the aerospace industry.
Before becoming superintendent of Williams Bay,
Dalzin was high school principal for Whitewater Unied
School District from 1999 to 2011, high school principal for
Wilmot Union High School District from 1994 to 1999, and
assistant principal for Wilmot from 1991 to 1994.
He grew up in the Milwaukee area and attended the
University of Wisconsin-Whitewater. His graduate work
was completed at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee
and Edgewood College in Madison.
Fox Point-Bayside reviewed 28 candidates for superin-
tendent and did an initial interview of six semi-nalists.
Those six were whittled to three nalists.
Dalzin was interviewed twice by the Fox Point-Bayside
school board, and once by a district group consisting of
teachers, administrators, support staff and parents.
Fox Point-Bayside school board members also visited
Williams Bay, where stakeholders in that district were
interviewed.
Dr. Dalzin told us he was attracted to our position
because of the districts tradition of high student achieve-
ment and its progressive approach to educating students,
Fox Point-Bayside School Board President Debbie Friberg
said on a website post.
Dalzin will succeed Rachel Boechler, who in January
announced her resignation, effective in August, to con-
tinue her work with Seattle-based nonprot Center for
Courage & Renewal.
The Fox Point-Bayside School District serves about 950
students in 4K through eighth grade in its two schools.

The Capuchin monkeys can be trained as assistant
animals, she said. They can hand you things. I looked it
up, and I asked a veterinarian.
In her book, Schubert said she adds excitement by
having the monkey kidnapped.
It was based on some stories from my son, Schubert
said. Hes run into people stealing copper off the towers.
In the book, they take the monkey as ransom.
Curt has run into other unexpected adventures too,
and Schubert said they sound ctional.
He fought with a goose the other day, she said. The
goose had her eggs there. He had to ght the goose off
nicely so he could get up the tower.
Her son has also been confronted by snakes and cou-
gars since he moved to California.
A sh hit him one time in the head when he was climb-
ing, Schubert said. A bird was carrying it to its nest, and
he dropped it right on Curts head. The other climbers
didnt believe him.
Swimming and writing
Schubert said she gets good ideas for her stories when
shes swimming.
While Im swimming, all these ideas come to me, she
said. I hope when I get home Ill still remember them.
Sometimes, Ill call home and leave a message on the
answering machine.
She writes a lot, she said, and she loves it.
I self publish so I can give more to the cause, Schubert
said. My rst two books were published, and I was not
happy. They change what you want to say, so they might
as well write the book. Its just so expensive. That money
could go elsewhere.
Instead of a professional editorial team, Schubert asks
friends and family to help her out.
I had people volunteer, she said. They just do it from
the goodness of their hearts. There are still mistakes in
there because we are not professionals.
Her next book, which she swears is her last, is about
mice.
Its church mice play together but seldom pray together,
she said. Its about religion and respect of others.
Schubert expects the book, and especially the ending,
to be cute.
She also plans to use her friends likenesses in that

Teachers want to keep insurance plan
By Jade Bolack
WALWORTH In an attempt to cut costs, the Big Foot
High School Board may change insurance providers begin-
ning in the 2013-14 school year.
Currently, faculty and staff are insured through the
WEA Trust, a part of the Wisconsin Education Association
Council.
Mike Manghera, president of the Big Foot Educators,
tried to persuade the school board to retain WEA Trust.
From our members, this is something that is very seri-
ous to them, Manghera said. Im not going to voice all
their concerns. Im speaking from what I know, and what
I can do.
Manghera said the WEA Trust has kept costs low,
though the trust paid out more than
was brought in through insurance pre-
miums.
Theyre a nonprot, he said.
Theyre really in it to help people.
Many teachers and staff members
were at the meeting to support reten-
tion of WEA Trust.
Gretchen McCarthy, board clerk,
said the board needed to research the
insurance options before making a
decision.
We really need to educate ourselves
about WEA and whatever else is available, she said. We
do have the responsibility to the community to be scally
responsible. Ive had eight different insurance policies in
the last 16 years ... It sounds like youre happy with WEA,
but we need to get all the facts.
Dues collection
Manghera emailed District Administrator Doro-
thy Kaufmann asking about dues collection. The district
deducts union dues from personnel checks, and Manghera
asked that the collection continue.
Our question is in regard to dues next year, she said,
reading Mangheras email. Our hope would be that dues
deduction would continue until a denite court decision
has been rendered.
Ed Hayden, board president, said he understood state
law to say the district couldnt collect union dues. The dis-
trict will continue deducting dues through the nal check
of this school year but not into the next contract.
Manghera
Walworth board approves early release
By Jade Bolack
WALWORTH Starting in the fall, students at Wal-
worth Elementary School will be released early on the
second Friday of each month.
The 1:30 p.m. release time was approved by the school
board May 20, after faculty requested more time for pro-
fessional development.
Principal Pam Larson said faculty would spend much
of the time discussing reading strategies.
Wed be absolutely delighted to have your approval,
she said. We want to raise those reading scores. We
just feel that the way the current system is set up doesnt
work.
Larson said the current system sets aside specic days
throughout the year, and it doesnt allow for momentum.
We start strong in the year, she said. We want to
continue that. This will really help us.
Pheasant Ridge neighborhood
Board President Kelly Freeman said District Adminis-
trator Pam Knorr was inuential in ensuring the Pheasant
Ridge neighborhood was retained in the district.
Earlier this month, the neighborhood had appealed the
boards decision to not allow detachment. Residents in the
area were seeking attachment to the Fontana School Dis-
trict.
The Department of Public Instruction held a hearing,
in which Knorr presented facts and gures of the tax base
and population structure of both communities.
She did a great job with that, Freeman said. When
(the panel was) making their decision, they felt that really
there were small differences between our schools with no
compelling differences.
Freeman acknowledged that Fontana Elementary has
smaller classes, but educational options were even between
the schools.
The panel felt that the scal effects of withdrawing
this property from the Walworth School District would
be damaging to our school district, Freeman said. Thats
one thing they said they didnt want to do is damage a dis-
trict.
Freeman notied the Regional News that the paper
had incorrect information in a pervious article about this
issue. The total tax base is $13.2 million for the area that
was seeking detachment from the district.

Seeking families for exchange students
AFS (American Field Service) has been exchanging
students for 60 years; thats six decades of experience in
international education. AFS host families single parent
households, homes with children, homes without children
are needed for this coming school year as placement
for students looking to spend their year here in Walworth
County. In addition to providing a bed and meals, there is
the opportunity to welcome a new family member into the
home, share everyday lives with each other, and learn and
grow while getting to know one another.
Benets of sharing the home with a foreign exchange
student include enrichment of the familys daily life as well
as the addition of an international branch to the family
tree. Support is available throughout the stay by experi-
enced staff as well as local volunteers.
Doing so will allow ones family not only to grow but
also to help the community experience the benets of
intercultural exchange.
It does not make any difference if the family doesnt
have a high school age student at home. Youngsters in the
home are thrilled to have their world opened to them by
enjoying a big brother or big sister exchange student. AFS
can also help families match an exchange student to their
lifestyle. While here these students also involve themselves
in school activities as well as activities outside the school.
Countries throughout the world send more than 2,300
students here every year seeking to experience life in the
United States.
For more information, access the www.afsusa.org web-
site or call local volunteers Jennifer Ludowise (262) 728-
5267 or Cheryl Kaufenberg (262) 882-5333.

WALWORTH COUNTY COURT REPORTS
Man guilty of multiple armed robberies
ELKHORN A 26-year-old Elgin, Ill., man who was
part of a group that was responsible for multiple armed
robberies in Wisconsin and Illinois pleaded guilty May 7 to
three felony charges in Walworth County Circuit Court.
Terrance Cortez Walker Jr. is scheduled to be sen-
tenced June 27. Each felony count of armed robbery car-
ries a maximum penalty of $100,000 in nes and 40 years
imprisonment.
Walker was arrested in 2009. Walker and others were
arrested in connection with an armed robbery ring that
was linked to more than 20 thefts.
Those thefts occurred in northern Lake County, Illi-
nois, and southern Wisconsin.
On April 30, 2009, at about 12:28 a.m., police ofcers
from Lake Geneva, Delavan, Elkhorn, Williams Bay and
Bloomeld were dispatched to the Comfort Suites for a
report of a robbery.
The hotel employee told police that a person wearing
blue jeans, a gray hoodie sweatshirt and a black bandana
over his or her face approached the front desk and dis-
played a handgun.
The robber pointed the gun into the air and demanded
the employee open the register. When the register was
opened the robber gave the employee a plastic bag and
demanded that the cash be placed in the bag.
On May 17, 2009, at about 9:56 p.m., deputies responded
to the Lyons gas station for a report of an armed robbery.
The robber, who was wearing a handkerchief, pointed a
gun at the clerk and demanded money.
On June 12, 2009, at about 11:04 p.m., two Dominos
Pizza employees were getting delivery bags ready for the
next day. As they were preparing the bags, they heard an
alarm, which meant that someone entered the back door.
The two employees initially thought that a delivery driver
who had forgotten something had returned to the store.
Instead they were greeted with a
man brandishing a gun and covering
his face with a handkerchief. The robber
demanded money, and the employees
turned over the cash they had.
According to a Dominos employee,
the man said, Thank you and quickly
left.
On June 13, 2009, at about 9:59 p.m.,
ofcers were dispatched to the Wil-
liams Bay Citgo, on Elkhorn Road. The
employee said a man wearing a yellow
handkerchief over his face pulled a
handgun out of a dufe bag and pointed it at the employee.
The robber dropped the dufe bag onto the counter and
demanded money. The employee said the gun was pointed
at him the entire time.
On June 19, 2009, at about 10:07 p.m., Elkhorn police
took a report of an armed robbery at the Mobil Gas Sta-
tion. That clerk said two men wearing dark hoodies and
bandanas over their faces entered the store and pointed
guns at him.
Confessions
On June 25, 2009, Michael Boyle was interviewed by
the Lake Villa, Ill., Police Department. During that inter-
view, Boyle said he was involved in robberies with Walker.
Boyle, 46, told police he drove Walker to the Comfort Suites,
and said that Walker went into the hotel and robbed it.
During an interview with police, on June 25, 2009,
Walker told police he used a pellet gun during the rob-
bery.
When shown a picture from the Williams Bay Citgo
robbery, Walker told police it was him pointing a pellet
gun in the picture.
He said he remembered that the clerk was really
afraid.
Walker told police that he robbed the Dominos Pizza
in Delavan with Boyle and Andrew Ballenger. Walker said
he went into the Dominos alone armed with a pellet gun.
On June 30, 2009, a Kenosha police detective inter-
viewed Ballenger, who admitted his involvement in the
Dominos robbery.
Ballenger said Boyle planned the robberies, picked
the locations and drove to them. Ballenger told police that
Boyle would take part in the robberies or send people to
the locations.
After being found guilty at jury trial of armed robbery,
Ballenger was sentenced on Oct. 19, 2011, to four years in a
state prison followed by six years of extended supervision.
Ballenger is appealing that conviction.
Ballenger also has convictions for armed robbery in
Kenosha County.
According to the state Department of Corrections web-
site, Ballenger is scheduled to be released June 19, 2018.
On June 25, 2009, police interviewed Tyler J. Trnovec,
of Silver Lake, about the robbery at the Elkhorn Mobil.
Trnovec told police he entered the gas station with Walker
and they both pointed pellet guns at the clerk.
As Trnovec left he yelled GD Love. Walker told police
that Boyle told them to yell this in an effort to throw police
off and make them think gang members carried out the
robberies.
Trnovec was 15 at the time of the robbery but has been
waived into adult court. Trnovec pleaded guilty to a felony
charge of armed robbery and was sentenced to eight years
of probation.
Boyle has been charged with ve counts of armed rob-
bery in Walworth County and one count of misdemeanor
theft. His court proceedings havent started, and Assistant
District Attorney Zeke Wiedenfeld said Boyle is currently
in custody in Illinois.
Walker
Linn man guilty of misdemeanors
A 55-year-old town of Linn man pleaded
guilty to ve misdemeanor charges after he gave
pot and prescription medication to a 13-year-old
girl, and then drove to two separate court hear-
ings intoxicated.
Daniel B. Clemens, N1938 Linn Road, pleaded
guilty May 15 to three counts of intentionally con-
tributing to the delinquency of a child, second-
offense drunken driving and third-offense
drunken driving.
For the second-offense drunken driving
charge, Clemens was sentenced to 180 days in jail
with work-release privileges and ordered to pay a
$500 ne. For his third-offense charge, he was sentenced
to one year in jail with work-release privileges and was
ordered to pay a $650 ne. Those sentences run consecu-
tively, which means he will serve a total of 18 months in
the county jail.
For the next 27 months, Clemens drivers license
will be suspended and an ignition interlock device will
be installed into his vehicle. He also must complete 65
hours of community service. On the count of intentionally
contributing to the delinquency of a minor, Clemens was
sentenced to three years of probation and ordered to pay
$26,486 in restitution. Three felony counts of bail jump-
ing were dismissed but read into the record.
During a preliminary hearing, on Dec. 9,
2011, a 13-year-old girl testied that throughout
the summer of 2011 she had smoked marijuana
with Clemens. She also testied that on Aug. 30,
2011, she went to Clemens home where he gave
her a prescription pill. The girl said the pill caused
her to have seizures and hallucinations and that
she eventually blacked out.
The girl was transported to the hospital.
where she described the pill to Linn Police Ofcer
James Bushey. Based on the description, Bushey
identied the drug as bupropion hydrochloride, a
clinical antidepressant, according to the criminal
complaint. At the same preliminary hearing, Walworth
County Deputy David York, who is assigned to the Judicial
Protection Division, testied that he spoke with Clemens
at a prior court hearing and could smell the odor of intoxi-
cants on his breath. York testied that Clemens told him he
drove to the courthouse on Nov. 9, 2011.
On May 17, 2012, Clemens appeared before Judge
James Carlson for drunken driving and felony bail jump-
ing charges. During the court hearing, a Walworth County
Sheriffs Deputy could smell alcohol on Clemens breath,
according to the criminal complaint.
A portable breathalyzer test was done and it came back
with a result of 0.06, according to the criminal complaint.
Clemens
Woman guilty of child abuse
ELKHORN A Whitewater woman who forced
a 3-year-old girl to walk around without clothes
and take cold showers after she had potty-train-
ing accidents was sentenced May 9 to three years
of probation.
Kristina A. Kirkpatrick, 30, pleaded guilty in
January to a felony charge of child abuse, inten-
tionally causing harm.
As a condition of her probation, Kirkpatrick
must serve six months in jail with work-release
privileges and pay $805 in restitution.
A co-defendant, Robert D. Kirkpatrick, 33,
pleaded guilty March 28 to a felony child abuse
charge. Kirkpatrick will be sentenced June 13 and faces up
to three years in prison and three years of extended super-
vision.
A 15-year-old boy told police about an incident when
the 3-year-old girl had a potty-training accident and Robert
forced her to take a cold shower.
During this incident, the girl screamed and attempted to
get out of the water. When she was removed from the water,
she kicked Robert. After kicking Robert, he held her down
and ordered another child to get the spoon.
After retrieving a spoon, the 15-year-old said Robert hit
the 3-year-old girl really super duper hard with it. Robert
than sent the girl to bed without clothes and with-
out drying off.
The 15-year-old told police that Robert and
Kristina were attempting to potty train the 3-year-
old girl. Their method of potty training involved
removing all of the girls clothes and locking her in
a room for a long period of time.
The 15-year-old also said it was common pun-
ishment for the parents to force the 3-year-old to
walk around naked if she had an accident. After
two days, the girl would receive either underwear
or a diaper to wear. After two more days she would
received a shirt and after two more days she would
receive pants.
The 15-year-old described an incident when Kristina hit
him with closed sts, just like King Kong. The boy said
Kristina consumed an entire bottle of alcohol prior to this
incident.
The 15-year-old described yet another incident when
Robert hit him in the head. The next day, the boy asked
Robert why he hit him. Robert responded that a 13-year-old
had been getting in a lot of trouble lately and he didnt want
the 13-year-old to feel bad for being the only person getting
in trouble. On May 24, police executed a search warrant on
the home and found numerous marijuana pipes in a safe.
Robert told police the drug paraphernalia belonged to him.

COUNTY REPORT
Deputies awarded for saving lives
Editors note: This is the rst part in
a two part series about the Walworth
County Sheriffs awards. See next weeks
issue to read about more award winners,
including private citizens who helped a
lost toddler nd his way home.
By Robert Ireland
RIreland@lakegenevanews.net
ELKHORN In one year a Walworth
County Sheriffs Deputy is credited with
saving two lives and shooting a eeing
bank robbery suspect while the man drove
his vehicle at the ofcer.
Another deputy was awarded for
saving lives in a different way. That deputy,
through Operation Click, has increased the
number of area high school students who
wear seat belts and have safe driving prac-
tices.
A deputy and correctional ofcer also
each pulled drivers from burning vehicles.
Sheriff deputies and private citizens
were recognized for efforts that saved lives
during the annual Walworth County Sher-
iffs Awards Ceremony, which was held
May 16 at 3 p.m.
Deputy of the Year
Deputy Dan Nelson was honored as the
Walworth County Deputy of the Year for
his work with Operation Click, a program
that encourages high school students to
practice safe driving.
The mission of Operation Click is to
reduce teen fatalities and injuries from
motor vehicle crashes by developing safe
driving habits through education and pos-
itive reinforcement, Deputy Jason Row-
land wrote in his nomination of Nelson.
To be eligible to win major prizes, stu-
dents must adhere to a signed contract,
which states that they will wear their seat
belts at all times, they will not drink and
drive, they will not ride in a car with a
driver who has consumed alcohol, and they
will not be convicted of any trafc-related
violation.
Students who follow the contract are
eligible for prizes, including a car.
The initial survey showed that at the
beginning, 78 percent of the high school
students were wearing seat belts, Rowland
wrote. By the end of the rst year, seat belt
compliance was up to 95 percent.
Burning vehicles
On March 17 at 2:04 a.m. Deputy Edgar
Resendez responded to a report of a vehi-
cle stuck along side the road in the town
of Spring Prairie, and when he arrived the
vehicle was on re.
The driver wasnt responsive and the
interior of the vehicle was lling with
smoke and the re was growing in inten-
sity.
Deputy Resendez ignored the building
smoke and re, made entry to the vehicle,
and pulled the driver to safety, Sgt. Alan
Gorecki wrote in his nomination letter.
Just after freeing the driver, the vehicle
became fully engulfed in ames. Deputy
Resendezs quick response and decisive
actions saved the drivers life.
On Jan. 23, Correctional Ofcer
Charles Carlson saw a car that had crashed
into a pole. Carlson stopped to assist the
man whose legs were severely injured. The
man was struggling to leave the car, and
Carlson advised him not to move to pre-
vent further injuries.
Carlson had to move away from the
scene to get cell phone reception, and
while reporting the crash to dispatch, he
heard a noise and saw that the car was now
on re, Correctional Ofcer Gale Borger
wrote on the nomination form. Carlson
ran back to the car and pulled the driver to
a safe location, preventing further injury if
not death.
Deputy Dan Nichols
Deputy Dan Nichols found himself in
the forefront of public attention after a
man robbed a bank in the town of Sugar
Creek. As the robber ed the scene, a high-
speed pursuit ensued.
The chase came to an end when the
suspect, Robert Lynn, drove his vehicle
toward Nichols. Lynn has pleaded guilty in
federal court to armed bank robbery and is
scheduled to be sentenced June 19.
Nichols red four shots, hitting Linn
once. Is Nichols a sharp-shooter? Was it
luck?
When asked Nichols laughed and said
he wasnt sure.
In addition to the shooting, Nichols also
was credited with saving two lives. One of
those awards he shared with Correctional
Ofcer Cleo Renner.
On Oct. 26, 2012, Renner received an
alert that an inmate on electronic moni-
toring didnt perform a scheduled alcohol
test.
Renner made a number of attempts
to contact (the inmate) but was unsuc-
cessful despite the GPS Tracker indicat-
ing (the inmate) was still in his residence,
Sgt. Sean Duffey wrote in his nomination
form. Though these circumstances are
not unusual in the electronic monitoring
program, CO Renner was mindful of (the
inmates) physical condition from previous
interactions and was very concerned there
may be some type of medical emergency.
Nichols was dispatched and found the
inmate in severe medical distress. In his
nomination letter, Duffey credits Renner
and Nichols with saving the mans life.
On Nov. 17, Nichols was dispatched to
the town of Troy for an elderly male who
was having difculty breathing, and as
Nichols arrived the man became unre-
sponsive.
Nichols administered oxygen, attached
an automatic debrilator and began per-
forming CPR.
There are times when you perform
CPR and it doesnt work, Nichols said after
the ceremony. There are so many people
who could have been recognized, this is
our everyday.
Saving an elderly woman
On Nov. 1, 2012, Deputies Daniel Long
and William Mortlock were dispatched to
the town of Troy for an 82-year-old woman
who was unresponsive and barely breath-
ing.
Long performed CPR and Mortlock
attached an automatic external debilator.
The deputies quick response and deci-
sive actions saved the womans life that day
and I am proud to award lifesaving awards
to both deputies, Capt. Scott McClory
wrote in his nomination letter.

DELAVAN Starting next school
year, each student in the Darien-Delavan
schools will have his or her own laptop or
tablet computer for school use.
The Delavan-Darien School Board on
May 13 approved a one-to-one electronics
device initiative that will make a laptop
or tablet part of the learning experience
for all students, from 4-year-old kinder-
garten through 12th grade at the start of
the 2013-14 school year.
Preschool through first-grade stu-
dents will have access to Apple iPad Mini
tablet computers and laptop
computers.
Students in second grade
through high school will
be assigned Chromebooks,
a notebook computer that
uses Googles Chrome oper-
ating system.
The decision was
announced in a recent press
release.
Superintendent Robert Crist said the
devices will be distributed with the goal
of helping students achieve more, per-
form better on standardized tests and be
in a better position as 21st century citizen
learners.
The initial investment, which will
include upgrading the districts wireless
Internet infrastructure, will cost about $1
million.
The board approved low-interest bor-
rowing not to exceed $750,000 in next
years budget for the initiative.
Other area districts that have one-to-
one technology plans for some or all of
their students include Traver Elementary
School, Westosha Central High School,
the Milton School District, Parkview
School District and Edgerton School Dis-
trict.
The shift to one-to-one may make the
Delavan-Darien School District the only
4K-12 district in Walworth County to
have this level of device accessibility for
its students.
Included in the initiative
is teacher training in the use
of the devices.
Future plans include
allowing students to use the
devices at home after school
and to use either home or
public Internet connections.
The devices will have
built-in content filtering
that provides users access to only those
websites and web-based resources avail-
able through the school.
Once home, the tablets and comput-
ers can become a communications tool
between teachers and parents, Crist said.
Parents can check in on student proj-
ects and progress, and they can cor-
respond with teachers no matter the
language through installed translation
tools.
D-D students each
get own devices
Laptops, tablets integrated into education
The board approved
low-interest
borrowing not to
exceed $750,000 in
next years budget
for the initiative.

WALWORTH
COUNTY LEGALS
separate appraisal of the house and barn.
Brunner stated the original appraisal includ-
ed the entire property. He said the
Wisconsin Department of Natural
Resources (DNR) suggested excluding the
house, barn and five acres because it would
provide the county with more flexibility of
what they can do with this portion of the
property. He also said that both the county
and the DNR commissioned appraisals. He
stated the DNR received an appraisal for
$1.9 million excluding the house and five
acres; and the county received an appraisal
for $1.72 million excluding the house and
five acres.
Supervisor Brandl said there were three ref-
erendums that did not pass at the last elec-
tion and this shows that citizens are tired of
paying more taxes. He asked if the Park
Committee had looked into splitting the
land. Supervisor Kilkenny stated the pro-
posal on the floor is to approve the applica-
tion for the grant. He said they are not mak-
ing a purchase or committing funds.
Supervisor Redenius stated more planning
needs to be done before moving forward
and he feels the land is overpriced. He also
stated there has been no discussion on
what will be done with the house and barn.
In his opinion they should use the $2 million
for smaller parcels. Supervisor Stacey stat-
ed he would support putting this to a refer-
endum.
Chair Russell relinquished the chair to Vice-
Chair Grant. Russell stated in reviewing the
public comments received, she found that
86% of the public comments received were
in favor of the park. She said Mr. Clark is
not willing to divide the property. She stated
she envisions the house being used for a
caretaker versus being sold or rented out.
She also stated the county is deficient in
county parks. She said they should move
forward with the stewardship grant. Chair
Russell resumed the chair. Supervisor
Schiefelbein stated the county did not go
shopping around for this opportunity as it
was offered to the county. He also stated he
anticipates there will be heightened police
presence at the park due to increased pub-
lic activity. He said it will be the Board that
decides how much hunting and trapping will
be allowed on the property. He also said he
is not aware of any negative activity at the
other county parks.
A roll call vote was conducted on Item 2,
Resolution No. 10-04/13. Total votes: 11.
Ayes: 7 Brellenthin, Grant, Kilkenny,
Schaefer, Schiefelbein, Weber, and Russell.
No: 4 Brandl, Monroe, Redenius, and
Stacey. Absent: 0. Resolution No. 10-
04/13 was approved by roll call vote.
Vice-Chair Grant offered a motion, second-
ed by Supervisor Weber, to approve Item 3,
Resolution No. 11-04/13. Supervisor
Kilkenny stated if the county acquires the
property, this is to apply for a grant to make
improvements. He said $45,000 will come
from the state grant and the remainder will
be provided by the Public Works depart-
ment. Supervisor Brandl asked Bretl if this
will come out of the Public Works budget.
Bretl stated it will come out of the Public
Works budget and the majority of it is labor.
He also stated that $10,000 is for gravel.
Nicki Andersen, Deputy County
Administrator Finance, stated that these
costs will eventually be allocated to a parks
organizational chart. Brunner stated they
have received stewardship funds in the past
for developments and they have park proj-
ects every summer that they work on. He
said they frequently use Huber labor and
that would be applied as well. He stated the
developments they are looking into are two
small parking lots, restroom facility and
small boat/kayak launch. He said they will
be working on this project rather than doing
other projects. Supervisor Kilkenny stated it
was understood that if anything was going
to be held back it would be other park proj-
ects. He said it was also understood that
this will not cause a major disruption to
Public Works or an increase in the levy.
A roll call vote was conducted on Item 3,
Resolution No. 11-04/13. Total votes: 11.
Ayes: 7 Brellenthin, Grant, Kilkenny,
Schaefer, Schiefelbein, Weber, and Russell.
No: 4 Brandl, Monroe, Redenius, and
Stacey. Absent: 0. Resolution No. 11-

before the Board. Chair Russell read
Supervisor Staceys amendment: I move
that the Board supports, in concept, a waiv-
er of all fees imposed under Chapter 74 for
three months beginning in October 2013,
but that final approval be subject to approval
by the County Board of an ordinance imple-
menting the same, as well as a budget
amendment transferring money from the
contingency fund to the appropriate
accounts to make up for any loss in permit
revenue, and further that the ordinance and
budget amendment be brought back to the
County Board at our next meeting for con-
sideration. Supervisor Stacey spoke in
favor of waiving the fees citing job creation
and economic development as his motiva-
tion.
On motion by Supervisor Kilkenny, second-
ed by Vice-Chair Grant, Supervisor Staceys
communication was referred to the Finance
Committee and the County Zoning Agency.

Schnurer excels on feld despite physical disadvantage
Defying the odds
By Mike Ramczyk
sports@lakegenevanews.net
GENOA CITY This is
what God gave me. God made
me special.
Thats what a young Donald
Schnurer told other kids back
in pre-school when they asked
about his arm, which was
pinned behind his back at
birth. His right arm extended
from the shoulder to the elbow
joint, where his hand had three
webbed fingers.
After numerous surger-
ies over a seven-year period,
Schnurers arm advanced to a
more natural position, and the
17-year-old Fox Lake, Ill. native
has made the most of it.
He is a pitcher and outfielder
on the Badger varsity baseball
team, and he makes what may
seem like a challenge look easy.
Schnurer fields the ball
with the glove on his left hand,
then quickly rests the glove on
his right arm before throwing
with his left hand. At the plate,
his right arm helps balance the
bat, and he swings with speed
and intensity. His hitting skills
bumped him up to varsity as a
sophomore.
A natural baseball player,
Schnurer is a talented out-
fielder and throws hard on the
mound.
But off the field, Schnurer
faced tragedy at an early age.
Three years ago, his father
and baseball mentor, Clayton,
passed away.
Donalds mother, Debbie,
says her son has a sweet spirit.
When approached by his gym
teacher about doing an inspira-
tional story for the Milwaukee
Journal Sentinel, Donald didnt
hesitate. He simply wanted
to get his name out there and
inspire people.

Girls
track wins
regional,
conference
By Mike Ramczyk
After winning conference, the Badger boys and
girls track teams put on an impressive encore Monday
night.
In a WIAA Division I regional at Badger High
School, the girls won for the second straight year and
the boys missed out on frst place by only three points.
The girls scored 113.50 points, 10 ahead of second-
place Kenosha Tremper.
Our goal is always to get as many girls to La
Crosse (state) as possible and that starts with making
it through to sectionals, said Badger girls track coach
Jenn Jaeger.
Regionals is basically a survive-and-advance men-
tality.
The top four fnishers in each event advanced to
Thursdays sectional at Waterford.
The girls boasted plenty of qualifers, including
four regional champions.
The team was led by seniors Liberty Wieseman and
Tristan Sproul.
Wieseman won discus (119-3) and shot put (33-7),
and Sproul fnished frst in 800 meter run (2:26.79) and
was part of the 3,200 relay championship team along
with Karina Reeves, Alyssa Olsen and Julia Adams.
The girls competed really well last night to earn
the regional title, Jaeger said.
BaDgeR JUnioR JosH DoyLe qualifed for sectionals

Late homer shocks Bay
By Mike Ramczyk
MONTICELLO Talk about a gut-
wrenching loss.
The Williams Bay softball team was
stunned Tuesday night in a WIAA Divi-
sion IV regional fnal at Monticello.
After the Bay committed an error in
the bottom of the seventh inning, the very
next Monticello batter took a pitch at her
eyes and outside and crushed it over the
right-feld fence to break a 0-0 tie with
a game-winning, walk-off two-run home
run.
I dont have any idea how she hit it,
Bay coach Jeff Kuespert said Tuesday
after the game.
The second-seeded Ponies escaped
with a 2-0 victory and ended the Bull-
dogs promising playoff run.
Im disappointed, Kuespert said. I
feel like we lost to an inferior opponent.
I felt like we had the pieces to go all the
way. But thats the game. It happens.
With the loss, the Bay fnished the
season 14-3.
On May 16, the Bay opened the play-
offs with a 5-0 win over Pecatonica in a
dominant performance.
Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, the
bats went silent Tuesday night. The Bay
mustered just two hits, one each from
Sam Storms and Molly Perkins.
We just didnt come to hit, Kuespert
said.
On the mound, Storms was solid
despite the one mistake. She struck out
fve, walked none and scattered three
hits.
Fort atkinson 7, Badger 3
In a WIAA Division I regional opener
in Fort Atkinson Tuesday night, the
fourth-seeded Blackhawks jumped out to
a 7-0 lead and never looked back.
Badger fnished its season 2-15.
Frankie Bobula had an RBI single for
the Badgers. Tara Baker and Shannon
Geaslin each added hits.
On the mound, Molly Schumacher
suffered the loss.

Chiefs walk off for playoff victory
By Mike Ramczyk
WALWORTH It was a back-
and-forth battle, and it wasnt a
good day for the pitchers.
On May 16 in a Division 2 play-
off opener, the Big Foot softball
squad, a No. 4 seed, needed some
late-inning heroics to knock off
fth-seeded East Troy.
Luckily for the Lady Chiefs,
Jen Petkoff and Kristen Glade
obliged.
Down 13-12 in the bottom of
the seventh, Petkoff smashed a
long home run and Glade knocked
a game-winning single to deliver
Big Foot a dramatic, 14-13 vic-
tory. It was Big Foot coach Rick
Schoenbecks rst playoff victory
in his two seasons.
The Lady Chiefs came all the
way back from a 7-0 decit in the
second inning.
In the seventh, the top of the
order did it, Schoenbeck said.
The whole year, we have given
away ve games in the seventh inning. It was our turn to
come back.
In a wild game, Big Foot committed eight errors in the
rst three innings and was down 10-8 after three innings.
Petkoff started on the hill and allowed four earned runs
on seven hits in only 1 2/3 innings. Schoenbeck replaced
Petkoff with Kayla Crump, who allowed
ve earned runs the rest of the way but
settled down to only allow three runs
in the nal four innings.
I didnt think the girls were feeling
right, but the ball was hopping every-
where, Schoenbeck said.
Schoenbeck said his team has aver-
aged eight to 12 runs per game this
year, and the offense exed its muscles
against East Troy. Glade was 4-for-5
with four RBIs, including a towering
home run over the center eld fence.
The home runs from Petkoff and
Glade were the teams rst over the
fence all season.
Brooke Berryman added three hits,
and Petkoff and Brittany Schoenbeck
each added two hits. Big Foot totaled 17
hits. Danielle Young, Crump, Morgan
Stalker, Marissa Kovarik, Monica
Hinske and Camryn Horton all added
hits.
Big Foot took a brief 11-10 lead in
the fourth, but East Troy answered
with three runs in the sixth to regain
a 13-11 lead. In the seventh, Petkoff
slammed a meatball well beyond the
right-eld fence to tie the game at 13-13.
Then, Crump and Stalker got on base. Glades grounder
up the middle found its way to the outeld, and Crump
crossed home plate for the winning run.
Were a good hitting team, Rick Schoenbeck said.
Once we got zeroes on defense, some errors helped us.

Badgers gearing up for playoff run
By Mike Ramczyk
It was one of those games the
Badger baseball team wishes it
could have back.
On May 14, the visiting Bad-
gers were in control the whole
game at Waterford but let it slip
away. A furious comeback by the
Wolverines may have perma-
nently put Badgers conference
title hopes on the back burner.
Badger took a 4-1 lead into
the bottom of the seventh, but a
disastrous frame gave Waterford
four runs and a stolen 5-4 vic-
tory.
In the decisive last at-bats for
Waterford, the Badgers commit-
ted two errors and pitcher Travis
Stahulak allowed two bases-
loaded walks.
It was denitely disappoint-
ing because we were in control
the entire game, Badger coach
Aaron Zweifel said. Travis had
struck out 12 guys in the rst six
innings, and they only hit two
balls hard the entire night. Its a
good lesson to learn, though. One
bad inning in the playoffs will
send you home. Walks and errors
always come back to bite you.
Through Monday, Badger is
10-3 in the Southern Lakes Con-
ference, one game behind Union
Grove. The Badgers are 12-6
overall and losses to Waterford
and Kenosha Tremper last week
knocked them out of the WBCA
state rankings in Division 1.
With only one more confer-
ence game and a doubleheader at
Antigo left, Badger gears up for
postseason play next week. They
earned a No. 4 seed behind Keno-
sha Bradford, Kenosha Tremper
and Union Grove, respectively.
Zweifel said his team can com-
pete with anyone if the defense
plays well.
We will go as far as our
defense takes us, Zweifel said.
If we make errors, itll be a quick
postseason, and if we shore things
up in the eld we can make a lot
of noise. At the plate, we need to
continue to strive to play one pitch
at a time and have quality at-bats.
We have yet to lose a game in the
last two years where weve had 60
percent or better quality at bats.
Badger earned a rst-round
bye and will play the Burlington-
Racine Park winner in a regional
seminal at Badger High School
May 30. Badger split with fth-
seeded Burlington this season.
Badger 2, Wilmot 0
On May 16 at home, Badger
bounced back with a must-win
against the visiting Panthers.
Senior ace pitcher Colton
Andresen tossed a complete-
game shutout, allowing only three
hits and no walks while striking
out ve.
Badger broke a 0-0 tie with
two runs in the sixth inning. Sta-
hulaks RBI double scored Derek
Denecke. Peter Krien and Andre-
sen had the only other hits for
Badger.
That was one of the best
pitched games, both ways, that
Ive ever been a part of, Zweifel
said. Both pitchers hit their spots
and threw strikes. All year weve
talked about sharing the ball as
a pitcher. You dont have to strike
everyone out. Colton has been
tremendous in that regard. He
wants the ball in big situations,
and he was in command from the
get-go.
Zweifel said the pitching and
defense continues to shine for
Badger. The local squads team
ERA is a staggering 1.79.
Defensively, Jonah Zeinert
and Peter Krien keep standing
out, he said. The amount of
bases and base runners theyve
saved us is immeasurable. Also,
our pitchers have continued to
impress. Colton and Travis have
been an amazing 1-2 punch for us
this year. They give us a chance to
win every night out.
Last hurrah for seniors
The upcoming playoffs will
be special for a senior-laden team
that has been playing baseball
together since they were 5 years
old. Stahulak said it is a close-
knit group.
It plays a major role in how
we play, Stahulak said. Our
team is always together outside of
school, and we have a lot of fun.
Fellow senior Trent Bobula,
an outelder who is hitting .289
this season, said this team has the
potential to do big things come
tournament time.
We obviously want to go to the
state championship for the rst
time in Badger history, Bobula
said. But in order to do that, we
need to make some changes. We
still have small improvement that
need to be made on defense and
cut down errors. We denitely
have a chance to go deep this
year.
Stahulak, a left-handed power
arm who leads the team with a
0.92 ERA and 57 strikeouts, is
enjoying the ride.
Even though we are not in
rst place, we are still dominat-
ing the conference and the offsea-
son work that I put in during the
fall and winter months has really
started to come through for me,
Stahulak said. I feel great on
the mound and knowing I have a
strong defense and offense gives
me a lot of condence.
Both Bobula and Stahulak
expected the Badgers to be con-
tending for the conference crown
after almost winning conference
last season.
Like Bobula, Stahulak has
condence in this team.
Our goal for the postseason
is to play to the best of our abil-
ity and to win, Stahulak said. If
we all take a sense of urgency and
play like every pitch is our last,
there is no doubt in my mind we
can make a very strong state run.
If all goes as we hope, I think we
could go all the way.
What is a quality at-bat?
Badger baseball coach Aaron
Zweifel said when his team
has 60 percent quality at-bats
in a game, it has gone unde-
feated the past two seasons.
Here is his criteria:
Quality At-Bat
(nine ways to get one)
1. Hard hit ball (even if its
caught)
2. Walk
3. Hit-by-pitch
4. Move runner from rst
base with 0 outs
5. Score runner from third
base with less than two outs
6. Base hit
7. Six-pitch at-bat not ending
in a strikeout
8. Nine-pitch at-bat, even if it
ends in a strikeout
9. Catchers interference
BADGER SENIOR TRAVIS STAHULAK ips the ball to rst base in a
recent game. The southpaw leads the team with a 0.92 ERA.
Lady Badgers winners of ve of six
By Mike Ramczyk
Thanks to a recent hot streak, the
Badger girls soccer squad has a legitimate
shot at winning conference.
Winners of ve of their last six, the Lady
Badgers earned a No. 3 seed in the upcom-
ing Southern Lakes Conference tourna-
ment despite having a better record (5-2)
than second-seeded Elkhorn (4-2). How-
ever, the Elks blanked Badger, 2-0, on May
10. This week, Badger has a chance to gain
revenge on both Elkhorn and Burlington.
We are excited about getting another
chance at playing Elkhorn, Badger coach
Ross Fowler said.
Badger earned conference victories
over Union Grove and Wilmot last week.
On May 16, the host Badgers got a goal
in the 65th minute from Lena Aspebakken
thanks to an assist from Hayley Aranda and
hung on for a 1-0 victory. Badger improved
to 10-6 overall.
We had to deal with some adversity on
Thursday, Fowler said. The team is deal-
ing with some injuries and is getting back
to full strength. We did a nice job of put-
ting together passes, and that is essentially
how we scored.
Over the last six games, Badger has out-
scored opponents, 9-4, and senior goalie
Autumn Mikrut has pitched four shutouts.
So what is the reason for this improved
play after a 5-5 start to the season?
I think the team is playing together
really well right now and we have put
together some good games here recently,
Fowler said.
I think our defensive unit has been
pretty good over this stretch of the season.
We are anchored by Autumn in goal and
Traci Mulligan at sweeper.
On May 14, the Badgers won at Wilmot,
2-0.
Badger dominated the Panthers in
shots on goal, 6-1. In the 45th minute,
Stephanie Espinosa found Aspebakken to
put the Badgers on the board.
Then, in the 57th minute, Taylar
Keenan kicked one in the back of the net
off an assist by Aranda.
Fowler said he hopes his girls can put
together a complete game this week in the
conference tournament.
We need to be focused for 80 minutes,
he said. We still have some mental lapses
that are a cause for concern, but we have
been playing pretty well for the last couple
of weeks.

Debbie said it has been
challenging. When Donald
was younger, his right arm
would turn blue or purple
for no reason. But Donalds
upbeat, positive attitude
always shined through.
We were really con-
cerned when he was a baby,
concerned how every-
thing was going to pan
out, Debbie said. Donald
showed us how to be strong.
We learned from him.
Before he was walking, he
was very strong and very
resilient.
Debbie said Clay-
ton always made Donald
believe he could do any-
thing and never held him
back. Donald learned to love
golf and baseball from his
dad. His dad would always
catch for Donald and helped
him develop into a strong
pitcher.
As a junior with plenty
of seniors ahead of him in
the pecking order, Schnurer
has pitched only 3 1/3
innings this season and is
hitting .167 in only six at-
bats. He has always been
one of the best players on
his baseball teams. But just
like he does with everything
in life, Donald keeps a posi-
tive attitude.
I understand why
Im not playing, he said.
But eventually, Ill get my
chance.
The Regional News sat
down with Donald May 16
at his home to discuss his
successful baseball journey
despite ghting through
adversity.
Regional News:
What is your reaction
to all of this press?
Donald Schnurer:
My gym teacher asked me if
I was willing to talk to the
Journal Sentinel. I wanted
to get my name out there and
inspire some kids with dis-
abilities. Theres a kid from
Trevor that I may go talk to.
The same thing happened
when I was 12. I had a story
in the Genoa City Report. I
was clocked in as the fastest
pitcher at this competition
in Elkhorn. TMJ4 came and
interviewed me.
RN: Have you been
pleased with the atten-
tion?
DS: I loved what they
did on WISN, but my friends
give me a hard time a little.
Not many things have
changed. Only a few people
noticed I was on TV.
RN: Tell me about
your arm.
DS: I was born with it
behind my back, and my n-
gers were webbed together.
I had surgeries over seven
years to get my arm back
to a normal position. Since
Ive matured more, it hasnt
been a problem.
RN: How challeng-
ing has your arm been
for you?
DS: The only sport I had
a disadvantage in was foot-
ball. I adjusted really well
to catching the ball, though.
I wasnt the best tackler.
Wrestling was kind of an
advantage, because I lost a
little weight with my arm.
RN: Are everyday
activities tough?
DS: I dont have an
iPhone because it doesnt
have a keyboard. Its easier
to text with a keyboard.
Adjusting to the three n-
gers happened pretty fast.
RN: Is it hard to hold
the baseball bat?
DS: Its not as hard as
holding a golf club. Ill never
have as much power as a
home run hitter. My ngers
are just to balance every-
thing. Im a contact hitter.
For golf, I dont swing all the
way back, I stop halfway. As
long as I hit it good, it will
still go.
RN: What do you do
when youre not playing
baseball?
DS: I worked at Wilmot
ski hill last winter, so I
snowboarded a lot. Also, I
like playing golf. My main
job is Geneva National, and
I also umpire at youth base-
ball games.
RN: How did your
dad help your skills?
DS: He set up the inter-
view when I was 12. He
helped me with pitching
and always caught for me.
He was more of a football
guy.
RN: When did you
start playing baseball?
DS: Fourth grade. In the
summer of freshman year, I
started lifting and bulking
up. I got pulled up to varsity
sophomore year.
RN: Despite your
arm, you seem like a
pretty normal kid. You
went to prom, have a
girlfriend, etc.
DS: It proves its a
normal life. People at school
ask me why I was on TV,
and I said it was an inspi-
rational story. And theyre
like, Youre inspirational?
A lot of people dont even
realize it.
RN: Have you expe-
rienced any bullying?
DS: Nothing has been
really hateful. One kid back
in freshman year that goes
to my girlfriends school
in Richmond talked a lot
of crap about my arm. We
almost got into it. Now,
were cool. Hes grown up a
lot more. It only happens in
public if someone is smirk-
ing with their friends. I can
be a (jerk) too, sometimes.
RN: Why do you
think youre able to
shake things off?
DS: It doesnt happen
much. I have to expect it,
too. Ill expect stares in
public and stuff. If I see
someone with a disability,
Ill look at it, too. Im happy
with myself.
RN: What advice do
you have for kids with
disadvantages?
DS: Youre going to have
people make fun of you
and not understand. But at
the end of the day, you just
have to make the best of it.
Besides my arm, Im just a
normal kid.
RN: Hows your
baseball season going
so far?
DS: I understand why
Im not playing much. Its
tough because Im used to
being that guy in baseball.
Eventually, I will get my
chance. Were doing really
well this year.
RN: Why do you love
baseball?
DS: Its one of those
sports you can never get
bored of. It doesnt take a
toll on your body, and you
can play forever.
RN: Do you play
other sports?
DS: My freshman year, I
did football and basketball.
Sophomore year, I played
soccer and wrestling. Coach
Matt Hensler has talked to
me about being a eld goal
kicker for the football team
this fall. Its not for sure.
Ive always been able to kick
well.
RN: How is school
going?
DS: Im an average B-
C student. Its the end of
the year, and I kind of get a
little careless. I like strength
and conditioning classes.
I wouldnt mind being a
physical trainer some day.
RN: How do you
want to inspire people
when you get older?
DS: I would love to coach
little league. Maybe I would
run into a kid like myself. I
could train a younger, dis-
abled kid somewhere, too.
RN: Overall, what
have you learned from
all of this media atten-
tion?
DS: At rst, I didnt
think people would see it. I
got a message on Facebook
saying it was inspirational
to their kid.
Its turned into some-
thing different from what
I thought. I just originally
wanted to get my name out
there.
Meet Donald
Baseball is: the thing I want to play when I grow up.
What most people may not know about me: I love
watching The Bachelor with my girlfriend.
Favorite movie: Remember the Titans
Favorite song: Donald Trump, by Mac Miller
Food ritual: Thanks to my friend Patrick Burton, he
introduced me to a plain peanut butter sandwich
with a big glass of milk.
If you could have dinner with one person dead or
alive, who would it be and why? My dad, I would
tell him that I could still kick his butt at golf.
There were many personal records set
by girls who did and did not qualify for sec-
tionals that were quite impressive.
Other girls sectional qualiers were
Allison Paleka in the triple (34-6.75) and
long (16-11.25) jumps, Olivia Asta in the
100 hurdles (16.35), the 800 relay team
of Madisyn Cromey, Asta, Leah Foltman
and Taylor Ajamian (1:51.11), the 400 relay
team of Cromey, Asta, Paleka and Foltman
(52.90), Elle Adams in the 3,200 run and
the 1,600 relay squad of Reeves, Sproul,
Olsen and Ariel Altergott (4:19.41).
After edging Westosha Central by only
eight points at conference, the Falcons
answered with a three-point victory over
Badger.
Almost all of our athletes went out
there and obtained personal bests, said
Badger boys coach AJ Curtis.
Alex Martinez was the teams lone
regional champ, nabbing rst place in both
the 1,600 (4:40.42) and 3,200 (10:15.51)
runs.
Other boys sectional qualiers are Sam
Lasch in the long jump (19-6.25), Andrew
Allen (11.34) and Nick Hall (11.60) in the
100 meter dash, the 800 relay team of
Robert Johnson, Andy Cychner, Christian
Sontag and Zane Zachary (1:35.09), the 400
relay team of Allen, Hall, Connor Kotula
and Michael Mann (44.30), Mann in the
200 meter dash (23.06), Josh Doyle in the
discus (141-0), Zachary in the triple jump
(40-8) and the 3,200 relay team of Zach
Aspinall, Cody Sadikoff, Mike Adams and
Kiley Lofy (8:40.77).
Teams take conference titles
It all comes down to your teammates.
Those were the words of Badger senior
Ariel Altergott Tuesday night after the
Badger girls track team won the South-
ern Lakes Conference title for the second
straight season.
Both the boys and girls won the SLC
meet, held at Waterford High School.
Track is a sport based on individual
performances, but team support is under-
rated. At Badger, sprinters cheer on eld
events, hurdlers cheer on distance runners
and everyone is on the same page.
The girls won with 135 points, nishing
17.5 points ahead of second-place Elkhorn.
Individual conference champions for the
girls included Tristan Sproul (1,600 run),
Olivia Asta (100 hurdles) and Liberty Wie-
seman (discus).
Conference was a great night for
Badger track, Jaeger said. Its always very
satisfying as a coach or an athlete to have
hard work pay off.
The girls team has good chemistry. No
matter the obstacle, the athletes make sure
everyone puts team over the individual.
We work really hard to create a close
team that can rely on each other, Jaeger
said. In a sport that can be very individual,
it takes effort to do that.
Individual champions for the boys
included Alex Martinez (3,200 run) and
Sam Lasch (long jump).

BIG FOOTS KATHRYN COLBY is all smiles after scoring a goal May 16 against
Evansville. Big Foot won, 2-0, to improve to 13-0-1 and 13-0 in the Rock Valley
South. The Chief Dogs host Clinton Thursday.
Chief Dogs remain perfect
Rambatt breaks
own school record
By Mike Ramczyk
CLINTON Big Foot senior Kyle Ram-
batt keeps raising the bar, literally.
One of the only pole vault competitors
in the Geneva Lake area, Rambatt and his
father have been working on his skills ever
since sophomore year.
On Monday night, his hard work paid
off again.
Rambatt broke his own school record
in the pole vault with a 13-6 at the Division
II Clinton Regional, earning the regional
championship. The previous mark, also
held by Rambatt, was 13-0, which he set at
his previous meet.
Kyles a hard worker, Big Foot track
coach Greg Lueck said Monday. Hes
having a great year so far. Its a very tech-
nical event, and hes been working very
hard on his technique.
Rambatt and several other Big Foot
boys qualied Monday for Thursdays sec-
tional, which will be held at Whitewater
High School.
The boys have done great this season,
Lueck said.
Overall, Im very pleased with our
effort. Besides people getting through to
sectionals, weve had a lot of PRs. We have
a good shot to get people to state.
Along with Rambatt, Big Foots other
winner was the 3,200 relay squad of
Michael Brody, Eman Huerta, Ed Kinerk
and Fletcher Strahan.
They nished with a time of 8:31.34,
crushing second-place East Troy by 13 sec-
onds.
Senior Mason Dixon took second in
the 100 meter dash with a 11.34, and Gus
Wedig qualied in the 110 hurdles. He took
second with a time of 15.84.
Senior Garett Cary, who has advanced
to state the last two seasons, advanced to
sectionals in both the shot put and discus.
Cary placed second in the discus and third
in the shot put.
Other sectional qualiers included Dan
Pearce in the long jump (20-4) and Strahan
in the 3,200 run (10:20.24).
For the girls, Libby Brooks had a big
day. Brooks qualied in the 3,200 run with
a time of 13:14.84.
Also, Brooks, Nikki Falcone, Lexie
Edinger and Sarah Kazey-Garey took
fourth in the 3,200 relay with a time of
10:33.54.
Lueck anticipates a tough sectional. But
he said Rambatt, Wedig, Cary and Dixon
have a good chance of moving on to state.
Our distance events will have a tough
time at sectionals, Lueck said.
They can all make it to state, though.
Its been a good year.
BIG FOOT SENIOR MASON DIXON quali-
ed for sectionals in the 100 meter dash
Monday at Clinton.
Big Foot earns 3 seed, home game
By Mike Ramczyk
It has been a roller coaster for the Big
Foot baseball team this season.
After starting out 8-1, the boys suffered
a six-game losing streak. However, last
week the boys bounced back by winning
three of four games.
With a 13-9 overall record, the Chiefs
earned a No. 3 seed in the Division II play-
offs and open play Friday at home against
sixth-seeded Brodhead-Juda.
A team many thought would contend
for the Rock Valley South title this season
nished at 8-8. Fortunately for the Chiefs,
the postseason offers everyone a new
beginning.
A roller coaster is an understatement,
said senior Carter Hehr, who leads the area
with a .467 batting average. This year has
been full of surprises, but the record of 8-8
in conference is by far the most disappoint-
ing. On the positive side, it is a brand new
season starting Friday and anyone can win
and move on.
Big Foot coach Steve Bochat said his
squad deserves a No. 3 seed.
I am happy with a No. 3 seed because
that is where we fell, he said. We lost to
Turner and Edgerton during the season.
I believe we should have been better than
our nal record.
The Chiefs swept Brodhead (1-13) this
season. But Bochat understands that the
regular season is over.
I think being at home helps, but our
players have to understand that this is the
second season and the hot teams that put
everything together will move on, he said.
Records mean nothing now. I think we
match up great, and I expect our team to
put everything together and go deep into
the playoffs.
The Chiefs are playing well at the right
time. They scored 14 and 19 runs in wins
over Clinton last week. Also, ace pitcher
Austin Hoey tossed a one-hitter, and Billy
Landers and Nate Freytag combined for a
two-hitter last week. Hoey, a left-hander,
leads Big Foot starters in ERA (2.06),
strikeouts (88), innings pitched (54 1/3)
and wins (5).
I am very excited for the upcoming
playoffs, and I think if we work as a team
and everybody plays their part, we could
make it wherever we want, Hoey said. I
think we are way better than our record
shows.
Senior Billy Landers, who missed some
games in the beginning of the season due
to a team suspension, has bounced back
nicely on the mound. He allowed one hit
and earned the victory in a 2-0 win over
Elkhorn last week.
It has been really hard, Landers said.
Coming back right when conference starts
without any game experience is tough. This
has been a great learning experience.
For the playoffs, Landers said the team
must put everything together.
Our minds must be in the game at all
times because you never know when you
could be called on, he said. Everyone
must do their job correctly. We have lacked
that sometimes this season, and thats why
some games went the way they did.
Billys brother, Alex, a sophomore, has
been a stud at the plate.
He is hitting .391 with two home runs
and leads the team with 16 RBIs.
To go far, were going to have to play as
a team, Alex Landers said. Wed always
have some games where either the pitching
was there and the hitting wasnt, or vice
versa.
Hehr knows this team is loaded with
potential.
When we play together and put every
piece of the puzzle together including
pitching, hitting and elding, we are going
to be a difcult team to beat, he said. If
the pieces fall where they can, we could not
only win our regional, but our sectional as
well.
Big Foot 2, Elkhorn 0
In a nonconference, Walworth County
battle at Elkhorn May 17, Billy Landers and
Freytag combined to two-hit the Elks. It
was the teams third straight victory.
Jon Quick smashed a two-run double
in the third inning, and that was all the
Chiefs needed. Alex Landers went 2-for-
3 on the day, and Hoey and Brian Wolski
each added hits.
Chiefs sweep Cougars
The bats came alive for Big Foot in its
nal conference series of the season last
week.
On May 16 at home against Clinton,
the Walworth won 19-9 thanks to a 10-run
fourth inning.
Big Foot erupted for 13 hits, with two
hits each coming from Hehr, Alex Landers,
Hoey and Collin Frederick. Alex Landers
and Wolski each contributed three RBIs.
Brett Morris, Zak Greco, Freytag, Marshall
Strenger and Tim Long each added a hit.
On the mound, Morris earned the vic-
tory in relief, pitching the nal four innings
and striking out ve while allowing no
earned runs.
On May 14 at Clinton, Hoey was mas-
terful on the mound in a 14-1 blowout.
The lanky left-hander allowed only one
hit, which came on a bunt single with an 0-
2 count. He struck out nine, walked two and
gave up one earned run in ve innings.
Billy Landers was a perfect 4-for-4 with
three RBIs.
Hehr and Alex Landers each added two
hits and three RBIs.

Pork has been extensively
advertised as the other white
meat, and whether or not that
is so nutritionally, it is popular
with many cooks and diners. The various cuts available make
it interesting to use roasted, grilled, stir-fried or any other
way. At one time, it was necessary to cook pork for longer times
to prevent any disease that may have been present in the meat.
However, modern breeding and raising methods in pork farm-
ing have improved that situation.
Sweet and Sour Spareribs using this recipe are done in the
oven in two steps. They are roasted at a higher heat, then com-
bined with soy sauce, celery, peppers, pineapple, onion, maple
syrup and vinegar. They bake at a lower temperature for a little
more than an hour, assuring tender, delicious results. Bake
some potatoes along with the ribs and most of the dinner is
ready at one time.
Another favorite cut, chops, is delicious in Pork Chop
Supreme, a convenient oven dish. Browned chops, cream of
mushroom soup, cooked rice and dried fruit are combined in
layers in the baking dish, covered and baked about one hour.
The dried fruit could be prunes, apricots or a mixture, to suit
the familys taste. Roasted vegetables or baked squash would
go well with the dish.
Traditional Pork Roast is described as a avorful favorite
by its recorder almost 100 years ago. Pork roast, garlic salt,
pepper and paprika combine for rich avor as the meat roasts
for a few hours in the oven. The drippings in the pan are used
to make a rich gravy, just great over mashed potatoes or noo-
dles to be served with the roast.
Bulk pork sausage cooks with wild rice, beef bouillon,
onions and herbs to create Sausage Casserole, an easily assem-
bled dish that bakes in half an hour. Cook a vegetable, toss a
salad and the meal is ready to serve.

Currently playing on
I was talking to someone
about how differences could be
overcome.
We just need to nd
common ground, he said.
And so it was, a few days
later that I found myself sitting
at a table with Dick Malmin,
Jim Strauss, Alan Kupsik and
Bill Mott.
For those who dont follow
city politics, Mott and Kupsik
are city councilmen. Malmin
and Strauss are often critical of city hall. Strauss is senior
editor of the Geneva Shore Report and Malmin is one of the
papers reporters. Malmin has also taken on the Regional
News from time to time. And Ive had my disagreements, and
agreements, with everyone at the table.
Were stghts going to break out? Probably not, but the
idea did cross my mind.
In any case, it didnt appear to be a match made in
heaven.
That day, at least, we were all citizens on common
ground.
We were all there to discuss a downtown parking study
the city is currently undertaking with a consulting group they
hired. The study is looking at parking congestion in down-
town. This was one of two meetings soliciting public input.
We broke up into three groups.
Im afraid of saying anything in front of these guys,
Strauss said almost shyly (this is the rst and probably the last
time Strauss and shy will appear in the same sentence.)
And theyre afraid of saying anything in front of you! I
replied.
We all laughed.
Whether my wise crack was funny or whether the laughs
were out of politeness or nervousness, Im not sure, but it
seemed to break the ice.
We were, indeed, on common ground.
And it became clear that none of us had the answers.
For each idea there was a rebuttal.
A parking garage? Enormously expensive, maybe $6 mil-
lion or more. And it would sit dormant much of the year. A
summer-long shuttle between an outlying parking lot and
downtown? Probably not cost effective. And would anyone
take it or would they continue to drive circles around down-
town until they found a place to park?
Making sure downtown employees dont use the down-
town spaces? Obvious, but how do you enforce that? And
should we be going through all this hand-wringing and pos-
sible expense when the parking problem is only for four to
ve months of the year and then mostly on weekends, and its
only severe a handful of weekends when the city has special
events?
I suspect the consultants will come up with some ideas
that will help the congestion perhaps a graduated system
of parking fees to encourage people to park in less congested
areas, more use of currently available parking or agreements
with businesses that have unused parking stalls.
As we continued our discussions, switching tables to focus
on specic aspects, I dont think we solved anything but the
common ground certainly grew.
All of us gave credit to the ideas others had and each of us
had so step back from our own preconceived notions.
Strauss and Malmin didnt always agree. So that breaks
the stereotype that theyre echoes of each other.
And at one time or another Strauss and Malmin agreed
with the aldermen and vice versa which breaks the stereo-
type that they cant agree on anything.
Once I got the parking lots at Eastview and Central-Den-
ison schools mixed up. No one made me feel foolish for my
mistake. We just moved on.
There was studiousness at the table that transcended dif-
ferences. At one point Strauss and I kidded the rest by tell-
ing them we didnt care if parking moved to their neighbor-
hoods because we lived outside those areas and wouldnt be
affected.
At one point someone brought up that we could construct
an elevated train like they have in Chicago and Disneyland.
That joke continued from table to table.
Im usually not a fan of such bonding games. Ive been
through enough of them and they usually seem awkward.
This one seemed to serve its purpose. We all left our egos
at the door. I dont know if we made progress, but I was sur-
prised by the agreements and the seeming lack of agendas.
I think part of the reason that it worked is that we were
on an even playing eld. The aldermen werent behind their
desks at city hall. Malmin and Strauss werent in the pews. I
wasnt covering a story.
Dear W.C.,
My husband suffered
from an aneurysm over a
year ago.
He is lucky to be alive.
It will be a long road of
recovery for him. We have
a 12-year-old son that has
been through a lot in this
past year. He is trying to
come to terms with his
father being in a wheel-
chair and unable to care
for himself most of the time.
Before my husband had the aneu-
rysm I was working part time and he
was working full time. I have had to give
up my job to care for him and he may
never be able to work again.
We lost our house and one of our
cars. The car we were able to keep was
my mothers car that she left to me when
she died over ve years ago. I was not
able to keep up with the payments on
the newer car. We have been waiting for
housing assistance but have not received
any yet.
I have heard hurtful comments
about people using the welfare system
and false disability claims. Those people
should spend a day in our apartment,
caring for my husband who is trying
to relearn how to speak, feed him-
self and use the bathroom on his own.
They should see how it feels to not have
enough food or knowing on weekends
and summer vacation your child will be
counting on you for more food.
Thanks to the breakfast and lunch
program at school I do not have to
worry whether my son has enough to
eat during the week. I never would have
thought we would be in need of this kind
of assistance.
Care Giving Wife
Dear Readers,
There is an ongoing battle over
health care and welfare in our coun-
try. There are many lives that will be
affected by these reforms. I am not going
into that debate in this column, but I will
share what I observe when I visit our
fellow Americans struggling with illness
and disabilities that lost everything due
to no health insurance.
Visiting this family, seeing the
devoted wife lovingly caring for her
husband stricken in his prime of life
by an unforeseen medical emergency,
I observed their near
empty refrigerator and
cupboards. The wife/
mother described their
heartbreak of surviving
one day at a time as their
daily reality. It is not like
the man could force him-
self out of his wheelchair
and go get a job. He could
not even speak more than
a few words, and those
took great effort.
This family was just
like every other American family we
may see at the grocery store or walking
in town. They liked to go places and do
things together on the weekends. They
both worked, had a home, two cars,
but they did not have health insurance.
They had a small savings that was wiped
out in a few months of trying to pay the
mortgage, car payment and medical
bills. When they lost both their home
and car they moved into an apartment
they thought they could afford. But the
extra medical needs of the husband
made it hard for them to keep up with
the utilities over the winter.
Thanks to all of your compassion we
were able to bring their utilities and rent
up to date, provide
food and toiletries,
and have their car
repaired. Our vol-
unteers also picked
up a few things for
their son as it had
been his birthday
the previous week.
They had not been
able to afford a
celebration. They
thoughtfully picked
up a birthday cake,
candles and a few gifts for the young
man. The son was very happy and grate-
ful for being included in our caring and
sharing.
When this family came to us for help
they were lost in the pains of poverty;
not enough food, a failing car, an unat-
tainable budget falling behind daily. All
this while in the midst of a family disas-
ter of failing health. Im sure the daily
stress the father/husband was exposed
to, watching his family suffering in pov-
erty, hindered his ability to recover.
Together, thanks to all of you, we
provided: good food, repaired their car
to make it safe and reliable, we gave
direction for programs such as home
care, and to get proper disability assis-
tance. The love of the son was turned into
helping care for the father he loved. This
allowed the mother to regain a part-time
job. Most importantly all of our prayers,
caring, sharing, love and compassion for
what we do, gave the husband/father the
encouragement he needed to continue
to recover. Today his speech is uent. He
gets stronger week by week. The love of
this family, as the wife said, Is stronger
than ever. Once again, during my visits
I explained how we all come together
and make a difference for our fellow
creations. At my last visit, the husband/
father happily cried tears of relief as he
said, Please, please thank everyone for
saving my family.
My dear friends, I thank God for all
of you coming together, allowing all of us
to do Gods works of love for our fellow
creations. God bless everyone.
Together we do good works, as we
continue to remove the pains of poverty
for those in desperate need. Together we
restore hope and faith in the goodness of
creation.
Health and happiness,
God bless everyone,
W.C./Sal

To the Editor:
It happened again Lake Genevas TIF
4 continues. It would appear that the major-
ity city council has lost its moral compass by
enabling the controversial administration of
TIF 4 to continue for yet another year.
This is a classic example of city hall behav-
ior the voters should regard as a learning expe-
rience. When you elect the wrong candidate,
you pay the price. In this particular case, the
price is $2 million. You will pay for that addi-
tion in year 2014 property taxes.
Detailed TIF 4 information was distributed
to all council members about the 17-year TIF
4 program listing the ever-increasing taxpayer tax burden,
alleged TIF abuse and how select projects did not meet state
of Wisconsin statute intent and purpose. The majority coun-
cil appears not to be concerned with taxpayer burden or the
apparent violation of state statute. Possible reasons for voting
to continue TIF 4 may be that they did not read the submit-
ted materials. Maybe they could not comprehend. Maybe there
is not concern about compromising state law. Maybe there was
intensive lobbying by program proponents, or maybe even per-
sonal interest. Take your pick. Its done.
The good part of the whole affair is that two council mem-
bers recognized the problem and voted to stop TIF 4. Kudos go
to those two council members.
Save our city.

To the Editor:
This year, May 19 to 25, is National EMS Week. It is a week
that is designated to allow us the opportunity to recognize all
of our Emergency Medical Services (EMS) professionals. The
EMS Week theme is EMS: One Mission: One Team. It cel-
ebrates the exceptional service being provided to countless
patients every day, often under incredibly challenging circum-
stances. It illustrates the fact that EMS providers are dedicated
to saving lives and limiting suffering on a daily basis. They
are self less professionals who put their own lives on hold, day
after day, to respond to the emergency needs of others. EMS
practitioners dont choose this field for big salaries, comfort-
able working conditions or 9 to 5 hours. They have a true
calling to help and care for others in their hour of need. Many
of these professionals are our neighbors, friends and family
members.
We would like to publicly thank all of our EMS providers
that work diligently day in and day out in our communities.
Our EMS services in Walworth County include:
Bloomfield-Genoa City EMS, Darien EMS, East Troy EMS,
Elkhorn EMS, Fontana EMS, Lake Geneva EMS, Lauderdale-
LaGrange EMS, Linn EMS, Lyons EMS, Medix Ambulance,
Paratech Ambulance, Sharon EMS, Town of Delavan EMS,
Walworth EMS, Whitewater EMS and Williams Bay EMS.
Please take the time to say thank you to our EMS profes-
sionals!

As graduation season approaches, I wanted to take a moment
to honor those students who will graduate not with the assis-
tance and support of their environment, but in spite of it.
Students, you know who you are, although the community
may not. Congratulations! You continued to attend school, com-
plete assignments and study for tests while facing problems
that could easily make school seem irrelevant. I wish you a
future with a smoother path. Please keep in mind; you reached
this goal proving that you have the tools to reach the next one.
Best wishes to you!

Gangs of Italians and foreigners? Rackets? Hired killers?
Had we been there 60
years ago wed be dead
By John Halverson
I was sitting in the Harbor
Side Caf the other night having a
beer courtesy of proprietor Spyro
Speedo Condos, when Speedo
told me this story.
Had we been having the con-
versation at about 7:30 p.m. on
Feb. 21, 1931, Speedo probably
wouldnt have been able to tell it
and I to write it.
The story Speedo told me was
about the bombing at the Lincoln
Inn on that date. Harbor Side is
the current occupant of that prop-
erty.
According to an undated story
in the Regional News, which
Speedo shared with me, there
were several theories related to
the bombing.
One was that the bombing was
done to scare off the Inns owner,
William Long. Considering the
property was and is at one of Lake
Genevas most valuable corners,
theres some credibility to that
theory.
But another one seemed to
gain even more traction that the
bomb was actually placed at the
wrong place by gang members.
According to the local papers
analysis at the time, a certain
gang, composed of Italians and
foreigners hired the job done
and that the parties who did the
job got the bomb placed at the
wrong place.
Because of the reports in Chi-
cago papers, Lake Geneva lled up
with hundreds wanting to see the
results of the explosion.
The story said: The city took
on a summer appearance with so
many foreign cars frequenting the
streets. Local cafes and restau-
rants report a record volume of
business, some of them selling out
everything they had
The entire town was shaken
by the explosion and farmers for
miles around also felt the jar, the
paper said.
After the explosion, the district
attorney seized teletype machines
and gambling forms from the
rubble. He said they might relate
to the race track and the beer
racket in the county.
The night before the explosion
the sheriffs department received
a call that war has been declared
on Hobart Hermanson and his
gang. It was thought, however,
that this was a ruse designed to
direct attention away from the real
motive whatever that was.
To support the ruse argument
was this logic: Had the bombing
had any connection with Her-
manson the bombers would have
waited to do the job when Her-
manson was actually there.
Guess cops back then werent
as dumb as the crooks.
As a newspaper person, I cant
help but feel a bit of nostalgia after
hearing this story.
Gangs of Italians and foreign-
ers? Rackets? Hired killers?
City council seems tame in
comparison.

OBITUARY
It probably didnt hurt
that none of us had a large
audience.
For that moment, at
least, we were equals. All
citizens facing a common
issue.
And we had a common,
specic issue to discuss.
It wasnt an issue where
there were
inherent dis-
agreement s
nor was it
open-ended
where other
issues could
interfere.
Im not Pollyannaish
enough to think the wars
between the outs and the
ins are over with. They
probably never should be.
We may all return to our
own corners and come out
ghting.
And we didnt leave
with a group hug. I cant
imagine what the out-
come would have been
had I embraced Malmin
but the thought vaguely
crossed my mind.
Common sense kept us
short of a love-in.
But, when we left to go
our own ways, and proba-
bly renew our differences,
we also should have been
e d u c a t e d
on the pur-
pose of
good man-
ners and a
c o m m o n
cause.
So maybe thats a start.
Conversation usually
trumps confrontation.
And coming to the table
as equals with a common
problem remains the best
avenue for solutions.
Halverson is editor
and general manager of
the Regional News
Were stghts going
to break out? Probably
not, but the idea did
cross my mind.

resorter notes
Lakefest 2013 is scheduled for Saturday and Sunday, June 1-2. Admission is free, and
all events will be held at the Town of Delavan Community Park at Highway 50 and South
Shore Drive in Delavan. Activities are scheduled throughout the entire weekend including
free shore shing, which coincides with the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources
free shing weekend; any Wisconsin resident can sh anywhere in the state without a sh-
ing license or trout stamp.
We want to bring families to the Delavan Lake and Community Park, said Delavan
Chairman Ryan Simons. This is a great way to kick off the summer, and were hoping to
see anglers of all ages experiencing Delavan Lake and enjoying all the activities.
On Saturday from 7 a.m. to 1 p.m., kids can compete in a shing tournament with sh-
ing instruction sponsored by the Saturday Events Sponsor, the Delavan Lake Improvement
Association (DLIA). The rst 200 attendees will receive a free gift. Experienced anglers
will be on hand to share their knowledge and expertise with attendees, said Simons. Well
have a variety of vendors, including native plants, water sports, shing equipment and a
variety of others including a display about the lake by the DLIA.
Food concessions and the beer garden will be open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Guests will en-
joy live musical entertainment starting at 3 p.m. with Simple Rezonation. The Music by the
Lake sponsored by Lake Lawn Resort and Kunes Auto Group includes three other bands,
The Mellon Heads, 4:30 to 6 p.m.; War the Fallen, 6 to 7 p.m.; and Glen Davis, 7 to 9 p.m.
The Sunday events, sponsored by The Shodeen Group, will kickoff with a Boat Show
starting at 10 a.m. and continuing through late afternoon including a variety of old and new
cars. Lunch will be available from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., and beverages will be served in the beer
garden from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Attendees can also take advantage of the continuation of the
free shing weekend, the volleyball court and playground. Music starts at noon with Mike
Stone Trio followed by Tony Amber from 2 to 4 p.m. Were looking forward to showcasing
the special resource we have in Delavan Lake, said Simons.
LakeFest is sponsored by the Town of Delavan Friends of the Park, Lake Lawn Re-
sort and Kunes Auto Group, the Delavan Lake Improvement Association and The Shodeen
Group. For more information call Ryan at (608) 852-3156 or Chris at (262) 745-4043. For the

Geneva Lake Shorepath
One of the most popular ways to get out-
doors in the summer is to take advantage
of the famed Geneva Lake shore path that
circumnavigates the 5,264 acre spring-fed
pond.
The genesis of this one-of-a-kind path
dates back to the region's earliest settlers
who created trails to connect the many
Native American camps. Today, these foot-
paths are part of a 21-mile walking trail that
can be explored in seven segments, each
between two and three-and-one-half miles
long.
According to the Geneva Lake
Conservancy, many of the original landown-
ers retained a staff of gardeners or profes-
sional landscape designers including Olaf
Benson, a landscape architect for the City
of Chicago; Jens Jensen, superintendent of
Chicago's Humboldt Park and the Olmsted
Brothers, designers of Chicago's Grant Park
and whose partnership was descended from
the practice of Frederick Law Olmsted,
"the father of landscape architecture in
America," and one of the architects behind
Central Park in New York City.

REFINED RUSTIC
STUDIO & GALLERY
Finding creative and affordable ways to promote your business can
be a real challenge. But little did I know how much one call to the right
team, could help us market our message. From our initial visit, I was
impressed with their enthusiastic and professional approach. Phil and his
team from ReelLifeTV really took the time to understand not just what we
do, but why we do it. After grilling him on his understanding of video
production, he patiently answered all of my questions. and made me feel
totally at ease with the process.
We really didn't know what to think the day of the shoot. As you can
imagine, we were a bit nervous. But again, their confident and comfort-
able approach made all the difference in the world. It wasn't long before
we stopped thinking about the camera and just had fun delivering our
message.
Phil & Joy focused on both the obvious and under-appreciated angles
that helped us tell a complete story. And when they left, I remember
thinking that it seemed as though they had filmed quite bit of video, and
that the time had really flown by.
About a week later, the first edit was revealed to us, and I was
thrilled! I couldn't believe how wonderfully they captured the spirit and
authenticity of our business. Connecting with our customers is some-
thing we cherish, and ReelLifeTV helped us do just that. Our response has
been awesome. I can't thank them enough for the fantastic job they did
with our initial video.
For an independent business, busting through the advertising clutter,
and finding new ways to establish personal connections with potential
customers is a huge priority. They really understood that for the team at
Refined Rustic, business IS personal. So, if you're looking for an innova-
tive and creative way to promote your business, organization or event
look no further than the amazing team at ReellifeTV.net

Enjoy Beautiful & Historic Lake Geneva by Horse & Carriage

Wrigley Dr. & Broad
St. in Lake Geneva
I
n the middle of it all: Lake Gene-
vas Riviera is a centerpiece. The
bridge that connects one side of
Lake Geneva to the other is on one side. The
beach that has drawn visitors for decades is
on the other. A block away is the downtown.
And on its lakeside the Riviera is the gateway
to the tour boats.
Photos or renderings of the Riviera are
used on just about any promotion involving
the city. Its a beacon that shines on all Lake
Geneva represents.
It may seem like the Riv as many locals
call it has been there forever. But histori-
cally speaking, its relatively new. It came
after most of the mansions were built; after
the city became a draw for tourists.
In 1932, the city fathers ignored the
nations depression and put down $85,000
to build the structure as a community center.
But before construction even started they
needed land to put it on. A manmade pen-
insula was built. The Riviera had its ofcial
opening in May of 1933.
Originally the Riv was called the Northport
Municipal Recreation Building. Perhaps real-
izing that sounded more like a gymnasium, a
contest was held to give it a name more bet-
ting of such an iconic structure. Riviera came
out the winner and has stuck ever since.
For years big band music was the Rivs
biggest draw. Louie Armstrong, the godfather
of jazz, performed there. So did the Dorseys,
the name most associated with the Big Band
era. Even Gypsy Rose Lee made an appear-
ance.
In 1934, the nearby beach was the site
of a national marble tournament. A hundred
or so boys (only boys apparently) were put up
at the elegant Hotel Geneva. Two locals were
among the best and received loud support.
Eventually, however, they failed to make the
nals.
In 1967, the Riviera itself was the site
of a more infamous event. It was the era of
student unrest in the country and for reasons
that seem to have been less than idealis-
tic, the entire city was rocked by a student
takeover. The Andy Gump statue in a nearby
park was destroyed. So many students were
arrested that they had to be housed at the
county fairgrounds in Elkhorn.

Tragically, one episode
resulted in the beating of
a decorated Marine. As
the kids rioted they tore
down an American ag
outside the Riviera. The
Marine tried to stop it
from being burned and
was beaten for his efforts.
The next day 16 carloads
of Marines and National
Guard members arrived
to replace the ag and
stand guard.
Eventually, the days of
the big bands passed. By
the late 1970s, the Riv
was more eyesore than
landmark. A local group
was formed to formulate
its future. With the help
of $350,000, four times
its original cost, the Riv-
iera was refurbished.
In 2004, a jewel was
added to the Riv in the
form a bronze fountain.
Financed by the Driehaus
Family Foundation, its a
replica of a similar foun-
tain in New Yorks Central
Park.
The fountain made
minor headlines two
years or so ago. The
coins tossed in it sud-
denly disappeared. The
incident created a minor
legal conundrum who
actually has ownership
of the coins? Is it the
city? Is it the people who
threw them there? Or is
it nders keepers? The
story disappeared from
the headlines almost as
quickly as the coins did
from the fountain.
Now prom dances and
civic events like Winter-
fest use the second oor of the Riv. The rst oor is a gathering
place for ice cream and t-shirt shops. As you walk past them,
the lake will come into view. And as you walk out onto the piers,
youll see the main port of call for Gage Marine and all its tour
boats, including the famous mail boat.
On a starlit night the boats and the building sparkle with
lights, and almost seem a gathering landscape which stretches
into the city on one end and the great lake on the other.

You could say its a passion for history thats moti-
vated Doug Watson all these years. Since his childhood,
hes been fascinated with the American West, and now
has the museum to prove it.
On the other hand, because his specialty is
making the past come alive for his visitors, his passion
might best be described as time travel.
When you visit Watsons Wild West Dinner
Theater and Museum, youll walk in the boots of
Americas cowboys. Watson, dressed in full cowboy
getup, guides his guests through the adventures of
historic figures, as well as the life of the archetypical
cowboy. Thousands of authentic period items, ranging
from guns to toys, make the experience come alive.
As Doug guides you on a journey through the past, he
incorporates his vast knowledge of the period, mix-
ing history with tall tales, cowboy poetry and wisdom
from Will Rogers. Both kids and adults will want to
wander the museum and explore the array of artifacts.
Watsons Wild West Museum is located off Highway
12 and 67 at Potter Road, Elkhorn. The business wel-
comes bus tours, private parties and school trips. For
additional information, call (262) 723-7505 or visit their
Web site at www.watsonswildwestmuseum.com.
cowboy wit & western wisdom
from rail to trail
biking, hiking & riding along
the White River State Trail
S
ince June 2003, thousands of bicyclists, hik-
ers and horseback riders have traveled the White River
State Trail. The former railroad track crosses over 11.5
miles of countryside, offering a traffic-free option for all
ages to enjoy the great outdoors. The trail is named for
the river that it crosses several times along the journey.
Parking is available at the trailhead, Highway H, Elkhorn,
at Highway NN, Elkhorn, at Highways 120 and Signal
Street, Springfield and downtown Lyons. Horseback rid-
ing is allowed on the two-mile portion of the road between
Springfield and Lyons.
If you are 16 or older and want to bike or ride horse-
back on the White River trail, youll need a state trail
pass; visit dnr.state.wi.us/Org/land/parks/fees/trailpass

Rites of spring at historical sites
O
pening the doors
O
Although the weathers staunch refusal to cooperate has delayed some of the evidence, spring has actually
sprung. If it seems like winter lasted 100 years it may help to remind yourself that Lake Genevas rich architectural
history goes back further than that, and the structures that make up our legacy have stood through much worse,
much harsher winters. From the 1880s mansion-turned-museum Black Point to the Jazz Age Riviera and Docks, local
landmarks are opening their doors to let guests -- and spring -- in.
If you visit the Lake Geneva farmers market this spring, youre likely to nd a variety of produce and vegetables. But these seasonal goodies go fast, so shopping early is your best bet. Crops that may be available this time of year include:
asparagus
rhubarb
strawberries
spinach
radishes
salad greens
arugula
The Lake Geneva Farmers Market is scheduled for Thursdays, from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. Its held at Horticultural Hall, 330 Broad St., rain or shine.
Now in its 102nd year, the Hall is located just north of down-
town Lake Geneva on Broad Street. The craftsman bungalow is an
outgrowth of the local Fresh Air Association, a philanthropic soci-
ety that raised money for Holiday Home Camp. The camps mis-
sion to provide underprivileged children a summer camp experience
was funded partially by produce auctions at lakeshore estate fairs.
The estate owners and gardeners relished the competitive (and al-
truistic) events and ultimately established a horticultural society.
The society needed a home; the Hall was built in 1911 and opened
in 1912 with a peony show. Over the next century, Horticultural Hall also hosted a garden
club, which dwindled in membership during the Great Depression-
-so much so that at one point, it was in jeopardy of being sold to the
city for use as a bus station. However, the Halls original purpose
was retained after it was established as a nonpro t.
Its available for private events, but the curious can also step in-
side on Thursdays (May through October) when the Lake Geneva
Farmers Market is open for business. Savvy shoppers can pick up
fresh mushrooms, preserves, artisan cheeses, baked goods -- and of
course, fresh fruits, vegetables, plants and cut owers.

Tours launch on May 4 for Saturday and Sun-
day tours, at 10:30 a.m., through June 9. Dai-
ly tours start June 15. Passengers leave the
Riviera Boat Docks, downtown Lake Geneva,
to cruise over to Black Point to tour the re-
stored mansion. The tour is recommended for
people who can climb the 100 steps that lead
up to the estate. Call the Lake Geneva Cruise
Line at (800) 558-5911 or visit them online at

If you go
1) Horticultural Hall
In the 1800s, lakeshore estate owners got to their prop-
erties by steam yacht. Today, you can still make the trip to
Black Point Mansion in style, the way it was done in Ge-
neva Lakes Golden Era. Black Point, once the summer
cottage of Chicago brewer Conrad Seipp, is now a state
historical preserve thats open for public tours. The Lake
Geneva Cruise Line brings visitors to the property for the
90-minute guided tour that takes them back to a time when
summer was a verb.
The 20-room lakeshore mansion has been painstakingly
restored--but the evidence of the inhabitants lifestyles has
been preserved. The Seipp family made the most of the sea-
son with family fun in all kinds of weather. Generations
worth of games, books, clothes and home accessories have
been turned up in every nook and cranny of Black Point,
and the staff has used them to recreate the atmosphere of
days gone by.
William O. Peterson, the great-grandson of the original
owners, donated the property to the state in 2005. It opened
to the public in 2007.

pen for the season
The Geneva Lake Muse-
ums 30th anniversary celebra-
tion is slated for Friday and Sat-
urday, May 17 and 18. Fridays
invitation-only cocktail reception
will be a fundraiser (contact the
museum at (262) 248-6060 for
more information on tickets).
On Saturday, the public is
invited for a free-admission cel-
ebration from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Held in conjunction with Inter-
national Museum Day, the event
will feature fun for the whole
family.
The History Loves Com-
pany themed-day will include
games, entertainment and dem-
onstrations, along with special
displays and the unveiling of two
new exhibits. Woodland People
and the Crane Windows display
will be opened.
The museum is located at
255 Mill St., in downtown Lake
Geneva. Visit genevalakemuse-

Want to get your hands on history?
The Geneva Lake Museum offers a chance
to walk right into the past -- down Main
Street, into a pioneer log cabin, a general
store, family homes and more. Located in
Lake Genevas former Power and Light
Company building, the museum holds
a wealth of treasures, artifacts and relics
that tell the story of locals. From the Po-
towatomi tribe to the rst European set-
tlers, to turn-of-the-century city dwellers,
the museum captures moments both im-
portant and everyday. Families can walk
down Main Street and visit the dentist,
the post of ce and a schoolroom -- and
thats just for starters.
Exhibits on the railroad that once
brought tourists to town include hands-
on toy train fun for enthusiasts of all age,
and kid-friendly displays make the past
come alive.
Now in its 30th year, the museum is
experiencing a renaissance, say Cura-
tor Helen Brandt and Director Karen Jo
Walsh. Gone are the velvet ropes and
plexiglass dividers -- theres room to roam
and plenty of opportunity to get up close
to the treasures of history.

the departure port for the
Lake Geneva Cruise Line,
which offers tours spring
through fall. Visit lakegene-

If you go
Built on a manmade peninsula, the Riviera Ballroom opened in 1933 as a community center: the
Northport Municipal Recreation Building, to be precise. A hasty rethinking of the prosaic title resulted
in the more poetic Riviera, and the building, which graces Lake Genevas downtown shoreline, has had
a past that lives up to its romantic name. Big Band performances from Louie Armstrong and the Dorseys
in its heyday. Countless weddings and wedding anniversaries. Couples strolling arm in arm. Yachts and
steam boats embarking on summer sunset tours...and coins tossed in a fountain for wishes. The most re-
cent addition to the ambiance at the Riviera? A replica of Central Parks Angel of the Waters fountain,
donated by local philanthropis Richard Driehaus. While the upper level of the Riv is reserved for private
functions, the ground level is home to shops and opens to the docks, which are perfect for shing, strolling
and taking in the sights and sounds of the season.
Welcome Home is more than a real estate book. Its your
source for finding or selling a home and your guide to local
professionals and retailers.
It puts the focus on what makes this area special ... and what
makes a house a home.

Fencing serves many purposes. Some homeowners erect a fence for privacy, while oth-
ers do so to contain pets and children. Because fencing can be expensive, some homeown-
ers look for ways to cut costs, which can be relatively easy, especially for those homeowners
willing to consider various materials when erecting their fence.
Traditional fences are available in materials ranging from wood to vinyl to metal. Hom-
eowners have other options at their disposal if they prefer a more natural fence. Different
shrubs, trees or grasses can be planted to create a barrier between properties or within the
property.
When choosing a fencing material, consider that even a less expensive material may
prove more expensive in the long run if it needs signicant maintenance or has to be re-
placed in just a few years. Therefore, the most cost-effective fencing material may not nec-
essarily be the least expensive one at the store. Here are some materials homeowners can
consider.
Found material: Repurposed wood or metal can be crafted into a rustic, one-of-a-kind
fence. Materials can be found that are no cost, requiring only the cost of labor. Should you
build it yourself, this can be next to nothing. Sometimes existing fences on another property
can be disassembled and re-built on your own property for little to no cost as well.
Chainlink/chainwire: Chainlink fencing is one of the most economical types of bound-
ary fencing. The fencing comes in a variety of diamond sizes and is xed to galvanized pipes
spaced across the perimeter of the property. Although it is some of the least expensive fenc-
ing, it does not offer much privacy on its own. But if you are looking at fencing simply as a
barrier, chainlink could be the way to go.
Picket fencing: A wooden picket fence is another inexpensive fencing material. The
pickets can be purchased in various heights, and this fence may be used as garden border
fencing or to mark a property line between homes. Spacing the pickets widely apart may cut
down on the number that need to be purchased, further keeping the cost down.
Bamboo: Bamboo is a rapidly growing grass that produces a hard wood-like material
that is used in many building applications. Bamboo wood can be used to build a fence, but
the natural plant also can be planted to form a living fence for privacy.

Edging a lawn is a springtime rite of passage for many homeowners.
When winter has come and gone, many lawns are left in need of some se-
rious maintenance, including edging. Well-dened edges around the yard
make the yard look more organized and better maintained. And edging is
relatively easy, especially for those homeowners with a smaller yard. Edg-
ing can be time-consuming for those with more property, but when done
properly, edging is denitely worth the effort.
Remove debris from the areas you plan to edge. Before you even begin
to edge, be sure to remove any debris from those areas that need edging.
Debris, including rocks, twigs or the kids toys, left lying around can be
kicked up when youre edging, potentially causing injury to you or someone
standing nearby.
Purchase safety goggles. Even if you have removed all visible debris,
there still may be some items hidden in the grass. These items can be kicked
up and hit you in the eye, so purchase some safety goggles and be sure to
wear them whenever youre edging. As an added precaution, keep kids and
others away from any areas youre edging so they arent injured by any
unseen debris that gets kicked up while youre working.
Check your tools. Edging can be done by using a gas-powered edger or
a string trimmer. Before you begin to edge, inspect these tools to ensure
theyre capable of handling the task at hand. Inspect the blades on a gas-
powered edger to make sure they havent dulled since their most recent
use. If they are dull, sharpen them before you start to edge. When using a
string trimmer, make sure you have enough string on hand to complete the
project. String trimmers use a particular kind of string, so visit your local
lawn care or hardware store if you dont feel like you have enough.
Position your edger properly. Once you have given your tools the green
light, its time to start edging. When you begin, make sure the edger is be-
tween the sidewalk or driveway and the edge of the lawn, placing the wheel
of the edger on the sidewalk or driveway and then pushing and pulling the
edger until you have created a clear edge. If you have never edged before,
you may want to practice on smaller, more isolated areas until you become
comfortable operating the edger.
Happy Memorial Day!

The photograph, "Garden Party" was taken at one of Lake
Geneva's exquisite and well known homes. On the South Shore, in
the Narrows ,is the most photographed and beautifully appointed
lake home. This 5 bedroom 3 bath home has majestic views of the
lake. The walk out level has views of the lake and is situated in the
midst of the beautiful gardens.
The deck off the master suite is expansive and offers a magnificent
panoramic view. The deck off the kitchen has been treasured as the
perfect venue for entertaining as well as a quiet spot to enjoy the
sunsets. The owners have hosted unforgettable gatherings and par-
ties in the lakeside yard, expansive pier and on the water.
The gardens are manicured and tended daily by the owners. As the
years pass, the gardens grow more gracious and
mature, accented each year by the carefully
chosen and artistically arranged plantings. As
the tour boats pass, they approach and linger
just a bit longer, so that photos can be taken
and the summer grandeur of this exquisite
property can be savored.
"Garden Party" was photographed on a beau-
tiful summer Sunday morning, a gathering of
family and friends, thrilled to walk down to the
pier and enjoy a day on beautiful Geneva Lake.
The location and meticulous condition of this lake home provides
the perfect opportunity to move in and enjoy all that Lake Geneva
has to offer.
