Rising homelessness
not a one-year blip
Seth Jovaag
Unifed Newspaper Group
Over the past two years,
more students in the Ore-
gon School District report-
ed being homeless than in
the previous eight years
combined.
Dur i ng t he 2011- 12
school year, a record 64
students were homeless for
portions of the year, near-
ly triple what the district
experienced a year earlier.
This year, the number fell
slightly to 57.
Its not a one-year blip,

The Fourth of July fire-
works display in Brooklyn,
which was in danger of
being cancelled two years
ago, is expected to take
place this week at Legion
Park, as it has almost every
year since 2005.
The fireworks show was
not held last year because of
the extremely dry, drought-
related conditions.
Vi l l age offi ci al s sai d
that the communitys two
banks - Brooklyn Commu-
nity Bank, Union Bank and
Trust both donated $500
for the event. A host of
other businesses and orga-
nizations have also chipped
in to the $2,500 cost of the
show.
Vi l l age cl er k Car ol
Strauss said the village is
about $150 short of the fun-
draising goal and the vil-
lage would happily accept
donations to cover the gap.
This years show will be
conducted by local volun-
teer firefighter Dan Dean, a
former member of the Wis-
consin Pyrotechnics Guild.

Summer Fest
2013
Oregons annual Summer Fest cel-
ebration was last Thursday through
Sunday, and many people came out
to the different events, including the
Sunday parade (below) on Main Street.
The festival had a carnival with many
rides, including the Ferris wheel (left).
Thursday and Sunday had the best
weather of any of the days, while the
5K run and afternoon events battled
heavy rain.

A yard on Fish Hatchery Road was
flooded with rainwater Thursday
afternoon, including saplings
trunks being submerged in water
(above.)
Several farms fields were also
flooded on the outskirts of the
Oregon area.
Memories of last sum-
mers drought were washed
away last week when the
Oregon area was drenched
in roughly 10 inches of rain
in six days.
Last Friday, village parks
and streets were managing
the deluge, though many
homeowners were dealing
with flooded basements, said
Oregon public works direc-
tor Mark Below.
The first six months of
2013 were the wettest on
record in the Madison area,
with the city recording near-
ly 31 inches of rain, nearly
15 inches above normal,
according to Madison.com.
In 2012, the total was just
11.39 inches.
Carandale Farms in the
Town of Oregon had t o
cut short its popular pick-
your-own strawberry sea-
son early last week because
the fruit absorbed too much
of the unrelenting rain and
was susceptible to mold and
other problems, co-owner
Cindy Secher said Monday,
though late-season variet-
ies are still being picked by
farm staff and a decent har-
vest could be salvaged.

County plans to pay
for Hwy. MM work
Mark ignatowSki
Unifed Newspaper Group
Two 650-foot stretches
of pavement that appear to
have been neglected during
the reconstruction of Hwy.
MM and U. S. Hwy. 14
might finally be repaired.
Readers had questioned
last year why these two
small strips of pavement
just beyond the boundar-
ies of last summers con-
struction project werent
included in the resurfacing
project.
Dane County executive
Joe Parisi said Monday that
the county would cover the
$180,000 cost of the proj-
ect after failing to secure
a cost-sharing agreement
with the City of Fitchburg.
St at e st at ut es def i ne
how much of project costs
municipalities share, Parisi
said, but the county and
Fitchburg have been unable
to reach an agreement dur-
ing the past two years of
discussions.
Its the same we ask of
any municipality, Parisi
said.
In a letter to Fitchburg
Mayor Shawn Pfaff, Parisi
said the county was able to
reduce the cost of the proj-
ect by about $120,000 by
rubblizing and reusing the
existing concrete, rather
than hauling it away.
Parisi cited the need for
safety improvements, as
well as the construction of
Lycons new concrete facil-
ity and the related truck
traffic, as reasons for why
the county needed to make
an exception to their fund-
ing practices.
This section is in such
need of repair, Parisi said.
Were disappointed that
Fitchburg isnt participat-
ing, but we are at a point
where this project has to get
done.
The project would crush
the existing concrete and
pave a new layer on top to
create a smooth surface for
motorists and bicyclists.
Pari si sai d t he funds
would come from the coun-
tys Department of Pub-
lic Works, Highway, and
Transportations County
Highway Construction pro-
gram. Bridge repair proj-
ects came in under budget,
allowing the county to use
money that had already
been budgeted.
County supervisors from
Fitchburg and Oregon have
spearheaded the project
and pushed for its support
through the County Board.
Oregon supervisor Jerry
Bollig said the project will
help alleviate some safety
concerns.
This is great news for
the thousands of drivers
from the Village and Town
of Oregon, and the Village
of Brooklyn, who use this
stretch of road of every
day, Bollig said in a news
release from the county. I
had serious concerns about
the potential safety hazards
related to decomposed sec-
tions of highway, so natu-
rally we very appreciative
of the efforts of the county
executive and his staff,
(Fitchburg) supervisor (Jen-
nifer) Dye, and the coun-
tys highway department
that led to these important
repairs moving forward.
homelessness. Its sustained.
The numbers might surprise local resi-
dents, as there arent homeless people liv-
ing in Oregon streets. Instead, most of the
students or their families are doubling
up inside homes with friends or relatives.
Only a handful over the previous three
years have spent time in Madison home-
less shelters, DiCamelli said.
The problem exists across all grade lev-
els and stretches from Fitchburg to Brook-
lyn, she added. And its possible more cas-
es go unreported.
Statewide, the number of homeless stu-
dents has nearly tripled since 2003-04,
from 5,400 to 15,600 last year, according
to the state Department of Public Instruc-
tion.
Among suburban Dane County districts,
Oregon trailed just Sun Prairie, Middleton-
Cross Plains and Verona in 2011-12.
Its hard to pin down why Oregons
numbers have risen. But DiCamelli sus-
pects the general economic downturn since
2008 plays a role. This year, 17 percent of
students here came from low-income fami-
lies, more than double what it was in 2006.
Another factor could be a general lack of
affordable rental housing in Dane County,
where occupancy rates are sky high, she
said. As a result, landlords can increase
rent and choose to bypass potential renters
with shaky credit histories.
Each case is different, she noted. One
student may need to move from a home
that doesnt feel safe, while another
might live in two-parent families with
steady incomes who were evicted because
their rental unit faced foreclosure.
Oregon staff receive training each year
to recognize the signs of homelessness,
and teachers, principals, counselors and
other staff often alert DiCamelli or school
social workers if they hear of a student
who may lose his or her housing.
Social workers can put families in touch
with organizations that can help them find
housing or jobs or meet basic needs like
food and clothing. School meal prices are
waived for homeless kids. And help can
also come from the Oregon/Brooklyn Food
Pantry, the local Neighbors in Need of
Assistance fund and the Helping Hands
fund run by local churches.
Ensuring that kids dont miss school and
fall behind is a big priority. That can mean
finding transportation for them, perhaps
through a taxi service or, starting last year,
arranging school bus rides, DiCamelli said.
Not surprisingly, research has consis-
tently found that homeless children expe-
rience more problems in health, develop-
ment, behavior and academic achievement,
according to the New York City-based
Coalition for the Homeless.
The districts goal is to provide a stable
education to those kids when they need it
most, DiCamelli said.
When the rest of their world is chaotic,
if at least their education environment is
stable, we can help them be more success-
ful in school.

Students wrap up work on home
St udent s i n t he Oregon Hi gh
School home construction class
recently finished off another home.
The 3-bedroom, 2. 5 bathroom
ranch home at 226 Drumlin Circle
was completed last month by 15 stu-
dents under the guidance of teacher
Chris Prahl. It was pre-sold last
August for about $320,000.
Students in the yearlong class set
aside roughly three class periods each
afternoon to learn on-the-job skills in
a program that has built 11 homes in
Oregon since 2001. Students worked
with about 15 different subcontrac-
tors on every aspect of the home,
which included a deck, 900 square
feet of finished basement space and
an oversized 2-car garage.
Of t he 15 st udent s, 11 were
seniors. Seven of those have been
hired by area companies for a skilled-
trade apprenticeship, two are pursu-
ing a four-year degree, one is headed
to Madison College and one is unde-
cided, Prahl said in an email.
The program is poised to continue
adding homes on the villages west
side. Earlier this month, the Oregon
School Board approved the purchase
of three empty lots at 690 and 665
Prairie Grass Road and 117 Onyx
Court for $225,000.
OHS students have built a home
every year since 2001 except one
during the down economy of 2009-10
when students worked on a Habitat
for Humanity 4-unit project.

Guidelines for Letter to the Editor
Unified Newspaper Group is proud to offer a
venue for public debate and welcomes letters to the
editor, provided they comply with our guidelines.
Letters should be no longer than 400 words.
They should also contain contact information the
writers full name, address, and phone number so
that the paper may confirm authorship. Unsigned
or anonymous letters will not be printed under any
circumstances.
The editorial staff of Unified Newspaper Group
reserves the right to edit letters for length, clar-
ity and appropriateness. Letters with libelous or
obscene content will not be printed.
Unified Newspaper Group generally only
accepts letters from writers with ties to our circula-
tion area.
Letters to the editor should be of general pub-
lic interest. Letters that are strictly personal lost
pets, for example will not be printed. Letters that
recount personal experiences, good or bad, with
individual businesses will not be printed unless
there is an overwhelming and compelling pub-
lic interest to do so. Letters that urge readers to
patronize specific businesses or specific religious
faiths will not be printed, either. Thank-you
letters can be printed under limited circumstances,
provided they do not contain material that should
instead be placed as an advertisement and reflect
public, rather than promotional interests.
Language, quotations, facts and research that are
contained in a letter but come from another source
should be attributed. Plagiarized material will not
be published. Chain letters will not be printed, nor
will letters already published in another newspaper
or magazine.
Political endorsements and other election letters
must be submitted by the deadlines announced in
Unified Newspaper Groups publications and web-
site. Generally, this is about two weeks before the
relevant election. Other special rules apply during
election season.
Unified Newspaper Group encourages lively
public debate on issues, but it reserves the right to
limit the number of exchanges between individual
letter writers to ensure all writers have a chance to
have their voices heard.
This policy will be printed from time to time in
an abbreviated form here and will be posted in its
entirety on our websites.
when it comes to fireworks.
The village provides the fund-
ing, and we put on a nice show,
Dean said.
He added its a fun time for
just about everyone, and that sev-
eral hundred people usually turn
out for it.
We have a DJ and a band that
plays music and a bouncy house
for the kids, he said. Its a nice
afternoon at the park, and when
it gets dark out we shoot off a
barrage.
Were not to the level of
Evansville, Dean admitted.
They have a pretty good fun-
draising effort and have a lot of
money to spend. But for a place
the size of Brooklyn, we put on a
mighty fine show.
St r auss seconded Dean s
claim: Its about a half-hour,
and its a fabulous show for a
small community.

Wisdom and Well-being
Philosophers have almost always touted the connection between
wisdom and happiness. Aristotle, by defining us as rational
animals, comes close to guaranteeing that through the correct
exercise of reason we might become happy. But, Aristotle was
aware that our passions and appetites could lead us astray, since
they are essentially irrational, and so for Aristotle, the good life
requires the correct use of reason in practical matters, what he
calls phronesis or practical wisdom. This practical wisdom
is the result of a lifetime of experience. Aristotle says that no
young person can be truly wise in the ways of life because he
has not experienced enough of it. Likewise, the book of Proverbs
is addressed to the moral education of the youth, repeatedly
saying such things as Hear, my son, your fathers instruction,
and My son, do not forget my teaching. (Proverbs 1:8 and 3:1)
The connection between practical wisdom and well-being has
been empirically verified by the psychologists Richard Nisbett,
Igor Grossmann and others. They defined practical wisdom as
consisting of 5 aspects: 1) willingness to resolve conflict; 2) will-
ingness to search for compromise; 3) recognition of the limits of
personal knowledge; 4) awareness that more than one perspec-
tive on a problem can exist; and 5) appreciation of the fact that
things may get worse before they get better. It turns out that the
wiser we are, when judged by these criteria, the happier we are.
For wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleas-
ant to your soul.

The Oregon Observer
WIAA updates, passes new policies for winter sports
Anthony Iozzo
Assistant sports editor
The Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic
Association Board of Control passed sev-
eral policy changes at a June 20 meeting that
impacts the 2013-2014 winter season.
The Board also approved a new transgender
student-athlete policy and applications for the
next two seasons for spring cooperative team
arrangements.
Basketball
Basketball had four recommendations
approved at the meeting. The first change is to
add a mercy rule for varsity games during the
regular season and in the playoffs.
The mercy rule states that there will be a
running clock once the a lead reaches 40 points
at any time after the third quarter unless a time-
out is called. If the lead drops below 40 points,
the running clock will remain.
The second change is that there will always
be a three-person officiating crew for all
WIAA tournament games.
The Board also approved a coaches recom-
mendation for basketball, that was amended
to include all sports, that allows schools to
request a waiver of the rule that requires a day
of rest after six consecutive days of practice
and/or games when weather postpones a con-
test during the WIAA tournament.
Lastly, the Board approved a measure to not
allow a team to host a sectional semifinal or
final in Division 1 if that team advances.
Wrestling
Wrestling had a few recommendations
approved at the meeting as well. The first was
the schedule of team state wrestling.
The Division 1 semifinals will be moved
from 9 a.m. Saturday to 7:30 p.m. Friday,
which would follow the quarterfinals. The
finals is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
The other approval states that schools that
can use TrackWrestling.com with electronic
bout sheets will be given priority when assign-
ing team regionals and sectionals.
Hockey
Two hockey recommendations were also
approved at the meeting.
The first sets the maximum number of
games limit to 24 starting next season, which
would add four games to the schedule.
The other approval requires hockey coaches
to report the teams disqualifications to the
schools administration within 48 hours fol-
lowing the incident. Administrators have
three days following the DQ to report to the
WIAA executive office, including a plan to
prevent the offenses in the future.
Gymnastics
Gymnastics had five items approved at
the meeting with the most notable being the
change in the state tournament schedule.
The team competition is now Friday after-
noon and evening, while the individual compe-
tition is on Saturday.
The other changes require line judges in
meets with four or more teams and a measure
to allow warm-up time to be stopped for bar
and vault modifications.
The Capital Cup meet now requires a 2-min-
ute touch for each team in each event, and the
final approval identifies the required ranges
for the equipment and apparatus at sectional
meets.
New transgender policy
The WIAA also approved a new transgen-
der policy for student-athletes.
The definitions are as follows:
Transgender the athlete has a gender iden-
tity expression that differs from societal expec-
tations based on their birth gender.
Gender identity an innate sense of ones
own gender.
Gender expression the external
appearance, characteristics or behaviors asso-
ciated with a specific gender.
The procedures for the new policy state that
the member school needs to determine the stu-
dents eligibility, which includes school regis-
tration information, a written statement from
the student and parents affirming gender iden-
tity and expression, written verification from
a health professional and medical documenta-
tion.
Following that decision, a school adminis-
trator will contact the WIAA office.
If the school approves, the student will not
be able to return to the gender on its birth cer-
tificate. If it denies participation, the students
eligibility will still be based on the birth gen-
der.
There may be an appeal if denied, but that
appeal must abide by the schools appeal poli-
cy and the Wisconsin Pupil Nondiscrimination
guidelines.
The policy also has a privacy statement that
states that the athletic departments in schools
must protect the privacy of the transgender
student-athlete and that all medical records be
kept confidential depending on the local, state
and federal laws.
The policy also states that the transgender
policy does not change the policies in place for
boys playing on girls teams, and vice versa.
Senior Legion
Rain cancels
weekend
tournament
Anthony Iozzo
Assistant sports editor
Rain has not been kind to
the Oregon Senior Legion so
far this season, and it wreaked
havoc on its schedule for
another week with the cancel-
lation of the Verona Senior
Legion tournament last week-
end.
Oregon had only played
two games as of the Observ-
ers Monday deadline, and
stood at 1-1.
The next scheduled game
is at 5 p.m. Wednesday, July
10, against Madison West at
home.
Sun Prairie 7, Oregon 1
The Panthers traveled to
Sun Prairie on June 19 and
lost 7-1.
Down 2-0 in the fourth,
Andrew Pliner hit an RBI
single to score Collin Byron.
Logan Laski was also sent
home on the play, but he was
called out at the plate.
The Cardinals added a
run in the sixth and blew the
game open with four runs in
the seventh.
Oregon threw five pitchers
in the game, as head coach
Brian Anderson said he was
preparing the team for the
Kenosha Tournament, which
was cancelled.
Laski was marked with the
loss despite only allowing an
earned run on two hits in two
innings. He also hit a batter.
Ross Galloway also went
two innings and allowed
no earned runs. He added
a strikeout. Abe Maurice,
Lucas Miller and Jere Bauer
all threw an inning.
Miller had a strikeout,
while Bauer allowed four
earned runs on one hit. He
walked four and struck out
one.

SENIOR CARE
Q. Its Summer! Eat Fresh Fruits and Vegetables!
A. At long, last summer is here! And that means fresh fruits and vegetables straight from the garden, roadside stand or local grocery. As a
caregiver, you can help the elder in your life eat well, enjoy the best of the seasons bounty, and reap the benets of healthy eating. Eating
well this season is about fresh, colorful food, and eating outdoors with family and friends. When the elderly eat healthy, they have increased
mental acuteness, resistance to illness and disease, higher energy levels, faster recuperation times and better management of chronic health
problems. Making small changes in the way you prepare food can often help overcome challenges to adding fresh fruits and vegetables to your
elders diet. Sometimes elders dont feel like eating because food no longer tastes good, try enhancing it with fresh herbs such as basil, dill,
thyme, mint, or chives. Antioxidant rich fruits are great for protecting cardiovascular and eye health. Blueberries, blackberries, strawberries,
mulberries, cherries, black plums and even grapes but especially fruits with dark purple pigments which ght inammation, improve blood
owand can help prevent blockages to the arteries. Foods like spinach, kale, Swiss chard, turnip, mustard, and collard greens are rich in lutein
are found in colorful fruits and vegetables that protect cells fromdamage. A diet rich in spinach helps shield the macula fromcell damage that can cause both age-related macular
degeneration and cataracts. Orange bell peppers are the best dietary source of the carotenoid zeaxanthin which concentrates in the back of the eye. Other orange vegetables such as
pumpkin, squash, sweet potatoes and carrots are also chock-full of vitamin A, which boosts night vision. Nothing harkens us back to our youth like the smell and taste of fresh fruit
pies, tarts, cobblers or crumbles. Adding fruits like peaches, mangoes and berries to smoothies or homemade ice creamis a perfect way to get calcium. Look for ways to combine
foods fromthe different food groups in creative ways. As always, before you make any dietary changes for your elder, be
sure to consult a doctor or a health care provider.

VETERINARIAN
Q. Why do we neuter pets?
A. The neutering of pets, ovariohysterectomy for females and castrating males, is so important for pet health
and decreasing the population of homeless animals. Unspayed females are at risk for developing breast cancer
and uterine infections. Intact male dogs are at risk for developing prostate disease and testicular cancer. There
are also several behavioral and lifestyle drawbacks of keeping pets intact. Pets are traditionally neutered
around four to six months of age. It is important to spay a female before her rst heat cycle. Traditionally, the
ovaries and uterus are removed. Newer research shows that removing only the ovaries in young females is safe
and effective. Performing the surgery via laparoscopy (three tiny incisions like a routine gall bladder surgery
in people) greatly shortens healing time and is much less invasive. Large breed dogs can easily have their
laparoscopic spay combined with a gastropexy (stomach tack) to prevent the risk of a life threatening bloat in
the future. Remember to spay and neuter your pets!
