Its that time of year again.LOCAL ELECTIONS.

Have you noticed the bright pink signs yet? Those are mine. I am running for a vacant seat for Forest County on Wabeno
School Board (Oconto County residents also vote for Forest County seats). Being a lifelong resident, raising my kids here
and owning a business here, I am truly vested in our schools and our communities.
*My primary goal is to give back and actively help our communities and schools build a positive, effective relation-
ship with one another. A strong connection between community and school is an important part in helping them both
succeed.
A solid, supportive connection between our community and our schools can only have a positive outcome.
It could help: ~Raise enrollment numbers. When we lose kids we lose money from the district.
~Get students more involved in community activities, allowing the students to see what this area has to
offer them.
~Add resources and expertise for teachers and learning environments.
~Build trust and support between school, parents and community.
~Teachers feel supported in their efforts to give our students the finest education.
~Give students more opportunities and increase their performance.
~Boost support and patronage for our businesses.
~College and career readiness for students.

My efforts as a board member would focus on encouraging open communication, transparency and promot-
ing unity amongst everyone. We are a diverse community and have to celebrate that diversity and realize our schools
and communities have so much to offer each other. Together- teachers, students, administration, board members and the
community- must all work together to succeed. We need to
move forward with positivity.
Fiscal responsibility is key. I want to be involved
in researching and grant writing for our schools to help
alleviate the costs to our district and our taxpayers. There
are numerous grants out there for public schools and I
would like to take advantage of anything we are eligible for
to help our schools succeed. I think its important to be pro-
active and pursue all avenues for money available for our
rural schools.
I am committed to help make decisions and
choices that will benefit our schools and our communi-
ties.
I pledge open and honest communication with eve-
ryone regarding all concerns, thoughts or ideas.
I ask for your vote and your support on April 4th, in
order to serve as a positive Wabeno School Board Member.
I invite anyone to call me if they have any ques-
tions, concerns or ideas. 715-927-7007

tion ends up being the biggest step of your life.

Three Oconto County high schoolers are robotics champions. The Slim Margins Robotics Team, comprised
Jacob Delzer (Abrams), Kelton Lepak (Abrams), and Jordan Sellhausen (Lakewood), has been Tournament
Champions at five out of the six tournaments that they have attended this year with a total of 17 VEX trophies
to show for their 2016-2017 season so far, and State and National competitions are yet to come.
VEX Robotics is a world-wide competition pro-
gram for middle and high school students; cur-
rently, over 16,000 teams from 40 countries par-
ticipate annually. In this competitive sport, teams
of students design and build a robot for a game-
based engineering challenge. Math, science, and
computer skills are utilized alongside teamwork,
leadership, and communication skills. The Vex
Robotics system could be likened to a computer-
programmed version of the old Erector sets with
a wide variety of parts available to the budding
engineers utilizing the system including gears,
sprockets and chain, wheels, motors, sensors,
nuts and bolts, bearings, and various metal
shapes.
Slim Margins (#202) is currently ranked 35th in
the WORLD for their robot skills. They will
compete at the Wisconsin State Competition on March 4th in Milwaukee and then at the U.S. Open National
Competition on April 7-8th in Council Bluffs, Iowa. These three high school juniors have been involved in
VEX robotics for over 5 years. They each
started their VEX journey on Team Green,
the Oconto County 4-H project team under
the mentorship of Kent Lyng, Electrical Engi-
neer at Oconto Electric Coop; however, this
year they launched their own club, independ-
ent of any school or organization. As such,
they are responsible for their own fundraising
and project management. Jake Sellhausen, a
senior in the Mechanical Engineering Tech-
nology program at Michigan Tech, is their
team mentor. He states, These guys are
some of the most motivated individuals I've
had the pleasure to work with. Their hard
work and dedication have already allowed
them to achieve heights which are nearly im-
possible for newly-created robotics teams.
The skills they are learning through this, such
as mathematics, teamwork, physics, and dedication, will carry them far in their futures.

A Word or Two From Dr. Adam

Chiropractic Treatments for Degenerative Disc Disease
The goal of chiropractic care for DDD is to improve joint mechanics by improving spinal motion and
reducing inflammation. The chiropractor may also work on improving the function of the interverte-
bral discsbut thats only if you do not have advanced disc degeneration.

To help treat your DDD symptoms, your chiropractor may use spinal manipulation (also called spi-
nal adjustment). There are multiple types of spinal manipulation. Some common ones are:

specific spinal manipulation: Your chiropractor will identify the joints that are restricted or
those that show abnormal motion. He or she will work to restore movement to the joints using a
gentle thrusting technique.

flexion-distraction technique: This type of spinal manipulation uses a gentle, non-thrusting

technique; its typically used to treat herniated discs and spinal stenosis.
instrument-assisted manipulation: This technique uses a hand-held instrument. The chiropractor
applies gentle force without thrusting directly into the spine.
Manual therapy may also be used to help treat DDD symptoms. Examples of manual therapy tech-
niques are:

trigger point therapy: The chiropractor identi-

fies tight painful points on a muscle and puts di-
rect pressure on these points to relieve tension.

manual joint stretching and resistance

techniques: Your chiropractor may use one of
these techniques to relieve pain and other DDD
symptoms.

therapeutic massage: Massage can help re-

duce muscle tension.
instrument-assisted soft tissue therapy: An
example of this type of manual therapy is the
Graston technique, which uses an instrument to
reduce pain and other symptoms.
