OWI patrol set for SaturdayJim FerolieObserver editor

For five hours Satur-day night, officers from 14 police agencies will patrol Main and Janesville Streets, pulling over driv-ers as often as possible in a friendly show of force.

It’s something Oregon police Lt. Karey Clark believes can help with what he sees as a major problem in the area.

“When I started here I was on nights,” he told the Observer on Tuesday. “It’s almost scary to see how many people on the road between midnight and 3 are intoxicated … some of them double or triple the legal limit. It’s just too much for what should be tolerated.”

There certainly won’t be any tolerance for drunken driving Saturday night,

with as many as 20 police vehicles patrolling just about every street in the village as part of the Capi-tal Area OWI Task Force. Clark said the village will contribute four Oregon squad cars to the patrol, in addition to its normal complement of two offi-cers handling any other calls or traffic duties.

Safety firstAbove, Tia Waterbury, 8, pets the Oregon Police Department’s K-9 at Saturday’s “Safety Day.” The annual event was at Prairie View Elementary School, and offered a chance for kids and adults to see police cars, fire trucks and more up close. Inside the school, children could try out “drunk goggles,” get fingerprinted and have their vision tested, among other activities.

Lucien, 6, sits in the front of an Oregon Police Department police car.

Maynard Stoehr from the VFW helps Isabel Reedy, 4, get her fingerprints done. All 10 fingers were printed and parents got to keep the prints.

An Oregon police officer “arrests” Landon Kojo, 3, who then led himself into the backseat of the police car before he slipped out of the cuffs and tried to have his mother “arrested” instead.

the four task force officers will be paid for by a state grant through the DeForest Police Department, which started its own high-visibili-ty OWI patrols in 2009 and spread the program county-wide in September 2012. This summer’s set of patrols is the task force’s third since then, and the program has grown from six communi-ties to 14.

Clark said the village took a wait-and-see approach the first two years, but once the department and the village attorney were satisfied that jurisdictional issues, such as other officers writing

tickets in the village, were addressed properly and that the patrols went smoothly, Oregon got on board.

The patrols are aimed at awareness and deterrence, rather than punishment, though Clark has no illu-sions that Oregon will go without an arrest, as some communities happily have done.

“If you can use this as a deterrent, I guess you’ve, at least for one night made an impact,” he said. “I’m not unrealistic in that they’re not going to find an OWI in Oregon. Our night guys when there’s just one or two (on duty) on are finding them.”

Each municipality gets to put its own spin on the local patrol. For example, Verona uses a large lighted sign to announce the patrol at the gateway to the city and Stoughton continues the patrols past bar time with its own officers.

Oregon has done its own dedicated OWI patrols using state and federal grants, but that’s generally limited to one or two officers for a couple of hours.

Clark said officers vol-unteer for the duty here and at the other 10 com-munity patrols, and he said there’s been a lot of interest. He, too, is very much “in favor” of the patrols, given

Oregon’s struggles to con-tain OWIs.

“I know they get a bad rap and they come with the stig-ma of a sting,” Clark said. “Given Wisconsin’s statis-tics, OWIs and death result-ing from OWIs, coupled with the number of OWIs we have here in the village and how grossly intoxicated people (often) are, I think it’s extremely effective.”

If that means other arrests, he said, so be it.

De Forest Police Depart-ment Lt. Dan Furseth, who originated the DeForest patrols and is leading the program, said the intent of each “impaired driving task force” is to be a deterrent

and a bit of a show, with signs alerting people and officers visibly patrolling high-traffic areas.

There wi l l be s igns announcing the patrols here. But the flashing lights from police cars will probably be harder to miss. Clark said officers will split the rough-ly 40 miles of village roads into zones and patrol small areas back and forth.

“They’ll be taking all the collector streets, the far-reaching streets, just because of numbers,” Clark said.

Officers from the other jurisdictions will hit the road at 8 p.m. after a brief-ing on the focus areas,

then will return at 1 a.m. to deliver reports detail-ing why each vehicle was stopped, both for internal records and to justify the state grant that is funding this effort.

O the r agenc i e s pa r -t icipating in the patrol are: DeForest , Stough-ton, Town of Madison, City of Madison, Verona, Sun Prairie, Shorewood Hi l l s , Co t t age Grove , Maple Bluff, McFarland, and assistance from UW-Madison Police, Capitol Police,and the Wisconsin State Patrol.

It takes a village to care for seniorsIn 1996, Hillary Clinton pub-

lished the book, “It Takes a Village: And Other Lessons

Children Teach Us.” In it, Clinton offered the

opinion that it is difficult for the family unit to meet all of a child’s needs and recognized the impact that other groups and individuals have on a child. She presented her vision for America’s children, which included the involvement of people beyond the family to provide support for children.

If all of society will invest in nurturing our children, Clinton argued, all of society will ben-efit.

I think a parallel book could be written titled, “It Takes a Village: And Other Lessons Our Elders Teach Us.” Just as it may take multiple supports beyond the nuclear family to raise strong, self-reliant chil-dren, it may take multiple sup-ports beyond the nuclear family to allow our seniors to thrive as they age.

Not that the nuclear family is not important in caring for elders.

It most definitely is. Spouses and children often carry a heavy load when it comes to support-ing seniors.

In fact, that load is often so heavy that family care givers struggle with burnout. That is why the concept of “the vil-lage” is so important. Support outside of the immediate family can reduce the risk of caregiver burnout and increase the senior’s chances of successful aging, and the support of the “village” can be vital to those seniors who do not have family support for whatever reasons.

The greater Oregon area is doing generally well in this regard. There is a wide variety of support available, both for-mally and informally. There are a few supports that could be

improved upon and others that are missing entirely.

The Oregon area is blessed with several things to offer our elders.

We have elected officials who are supportive of the seniors in this area, as well as a vibrant senior center that offers every-thing from education, exercise and entertainment to home-delivered meals, caregiver sup-port groups and an Adult Day Program.

We also have faith communi-ties that actively support their senior members, medical clin-ics and care facilities that are invested in providing quality care for senior citizens, case managers through the senior center who focus on connect-ing seniors in the community with the resources they need to stay in their homes, and a lively group of volunteers who are genuinely interested in support-ing seniors.

Oregon could do some things better, however. The area lacks affordable transportation options for anyone who uses a wheel-chair, unless they want to go to the senior center for a meal or want to go grocery shopping through the center. Any other transportation needs are very expensive for someone using a wheelchair, unless they hap-pen to be on Medicaid or are enrolled in a partnership pro-gram that provides transporta-tion to medical appointments.

Housing is another category that could be improved upon: Affordable rental housing for the senior client is often in short supply. Many seniors need elevator access for second floor apartments, and sheltered park-ing is more than a mere conve-nience (as this past winter made obvious) for our elders.

While there is an abundance of volunteers in the area, we would benefit from more vol-unteers who are willing to go through the training and back-ground checks necessary to become Peer Support volunteers. These people form connections with elders who are mostly

homebound. They can help reduce the risk of isolation for those vulnerable seniors.

The Oregon area, as well as virtually every place else in this country, will need to add more supports specific for families dealing with dementia as those numbers continue to increase. That will be the subject of a future column.

Overall, the Oregon area has a reasonably extensive network of supports available to seniors and their care givers. The “Vil-lage” is ready to play its part in improving the quality of life for our senior citizens. The next challenge will be encouraging seniors and their care givers to take advantage of all that there is available.

Whether it is fear of letting people know they need some type of assistance, pride, an overly developed independent streak or just a lack of knowl-edge, many seniors do not take full advantage of the supports that exist. This is where the input of family, friends, neigh-bors, physicians and clergy can be valuable in guiding seniors to the wide variety of options available.

Just as our youth benefit from a variety of community sup-ports, so do our seniors. Politics aside, Hillary Clinton’s theory about the value of “The Village” is valid.

The Oregon area is fortunate to have in place such a support-ive “Village” for its elders, and it needs to consider the chal-lenges ahead in improving and broadening the “Village” as the baby boomers swell the ranks of our seniors.

Rachel Brickner is a case manager at the Oregon Area Senior Center.

A vote of confidence for BuslerAs the new school board presi-

dent, I am grateful for the honor and appreciate the serious respon-sibility I hold.

Because of some recent talk of removing school administra-tors, I want to take this chance to express my support for our dis-trict’s administrators including our superintendent.

Our administration team, led by Dr. Brian Busler, our superin-tendent, is outstanding. Each of our administrators is talented and exceptional, and the team is led effectively. If there is ever a seri-ous problem with administrators, we will be sure our superintendent deals with it.

If there is ever a problem with our superintendent, we (the school board) are directly responsible for correcting the problem, or in the extreme case, removing him.

I see no reason to consider removing anyone right now.

Our superintendent has been extraordinarily loyal to the school board. We expect that he will

continue that loyal service. Often the superintendent has no choice but to take unpopular action, as he follows the school board’s direc-tions. If the superintendent makes moves that are unpopular or cre-ate problems, the public should hold the board accountable, not the superintendent. The board can change things by adjusting either 1) policy, or 2) supervision of the superintendent.

I am very hopeful that we can make improvements in the district to benefit our students, our com-munity, and our employees. It is guaranteed that I will make mis-takes as school board president, and when I do, I ask for gentle feedback and correction. With a solid administrative team, great teachers and community support there is no reason we can’t be the best school district in Wisconsin.

Dan Krause is the Oregon School District Board of Educa-

tion president.

Family Band coming to First PresbyterianBest known for appearing

on National Public Radio’s “Prairie Home Compan-ion” and Wisconsin Public Radio’s “Simply Folk,” the Krause Family Band is tak-ing time out of their sched-ule to perform May 18 at First Presbyterian Church.

The group plays a mix-ture of heartfelt original music, as well as some classic bluegrass and folk favorites. The band was formed in the Madison area with its members dis-persed around southeast-ern Wisconsin, including:

bandleader Rick Krause, guitar and harmonica, and daughters, Katie Krause Flores (lead vocalist) and Ruthie Emily Krause (fid-dle).

The “extended” family band members also include Craig Radi on bass, Jim Spransy on percussion, Rick Evans on electric gui-tar and Scott Wright on keyboards.

The public is invited to join in the activities, beginning with the 10 a.m. church service and a pot-luck picnic at 11:30 a.m.

(bring a dish to pass). The Krause family will be per-forming during both activi-ties.

After more than a year of review and adjustments, the Village of Oregon Plan-ning Commission approved plans for apartments and duplexes along Bergamont Boulevard last week.

The p lans had gone through numerous revisions since they were first pro-posed, with commission-ers and neighbors seeking

to refine the details of the process to be more in line with the aesthetics of the single-family homes inside the subdivision. The com-mission gave unanimous approval to the plans after about an hour of discussing the latest details with Fidu-ciary Real Estate Develop-ment vice president Craig Raddatz May 1.

The company plans to add seven duplex buildings just north of an existing

strip of two-family homes on the west side of Bergam-ont Boulevard. Thirty-eight units more in 10 buildings – nine four-unit apartment buildings and one duplex – are planned for a 4.75-acre site north of those duplexes. On the east side of Bergam-ont Boulevard, 10 multi-family units in five build-ings are planned for a 1.33-acre site.

Although the buildings are not what was originally

planned for the site, neigh-bors and the homeowners association have been try-ing to work with the com-mission and developer to make sure high-quality buildings would be built in the subdivision.

They will have a mixture of vinyl siding and shake-style vinyl siding and be built in the Craftsman style. Commissioners pushed for more stone on the buildings at the latest meeting. The

nine apartment buildings on the west side will alternate having a large stone fea-ture on one side. Prominent buildings will have a stone wainscot wrap around the building edges facing Ber-gamont Boulevard and oth-er visible roadways. Com-missioners also sought to

differentiate the buildings by using different types of landscaping.

Because of the changes made to the site plans at the last meeting, all plans are subject to a final review by village planning staff.

Police rePortMarch 17

11:28 a.m. A 46-year-old man reported someone had spray painted two hearts on the inside of the park shelter on the 200 block of Brook Street.

March 1810:00 p.m. A 47-year-old

man reported someone had taken three spools of electric-ity wire from outside of his residence on the 1000 block of Park Street between 3 and 8:30 p.m. He also said two 13-inch lug rims were taken from his trailer parked in the parking lot. He estimated the value of the items at $1,020.

March 205:40 p.m. A 60-year-old

woman reported that 72 oxycodone pills were stolen from her apartment on the 200 block of Oak Street over-night. The woman believed her 67-year-old neighbor had taken the pills from her

apartment, but did not want to press charges or have police investigate.

March 222:50 p.m. A 38-year-old

man reported someone ille-gally putting cardboard boxes into the Dumpster on the 100 block of Braun Road. Police followed up with a name and address on the boxes, but the individual no longer lived at the address.

man told police two people had put garbage into his Dumpster on the 900 block of Main Street. Police used a name on the garbage to con-tact a 44-year-old man, who said his tenants had disposed of his garbage and that it wouldn’t happen again.

7:25 p.m. A 28-year-old Kwik Trip employee reported a pickup truck parked at the

gas pumps. Police made con-tact with the 32-year-old car owner and told him he had to move his truck. The man said

he would, but did not. Kwik Trip had the vehicle towed.

Admit When You’re Wrong

One of the barriers to good relations is when people dig their heels in and refuse to admit when they are wrong. Many an argument could be shortened by the offending party simply admitting his offense and sincerely asking for forgiveness. In fact, many arguments could be

avoided by apologizing or admitting ahead of time that you might be wrong. It is always a good disarming tactic to let people know that you could be wrong about something, or to offer your apologies in advance for what you are about to do. Moreover, people who refuse

to apologize even when they know they are wrong, or who offer insin-cere apologies are seen as pride-filled, dishonest, and not interested in smooth relations. If you want to get along with your family, friends

and colleagues, be quick to admit when you’re wrong. This advice also applies to your relationship with God. That is, admit to God when

you have sinned and accept His forgiveness just as readily.

–Christopher Simon via Metro News Service

Whoever conceals his transgressions will not prosper, but he who confesses and forsakes them will obtain mercy.

when it’s reconstructed in 2018. The casing would be a conduit for public water and other utilities to serve what someday may be a business park or residential area on the east side of the highway.

The board didn’t make a decision Monday about installing the casing, which is estimated to cost about $100,000. But village plan-ner Mike Slavney told the board that the “southeast quadrant” is the only area in or adjacent to the village that’s suitable for large-scale commercial development.

Village officials are con-sidering the possibility of annexing and developing more than 275 acres east of Hwy. 14.

Officials began discussing the possibility of expanding the village boundary east of Hwy. 14 in 2003, when a couple of property owners approached the village about eventually annexing proper-ties in the Town of Rutland.

The DOT anticipates beginning the first phase of the six-year highway recon-struction project in 2018 – two years later than vil-lage officials expected. It’s expected to cost between $25 million and $29 million.

Near the end of a more than two-hour meeting, the board directed village staff to prepare a budget amendment to pay for planning and pro-ceed with arranging meetings with landowners and others about the possibility of creat-ing a business park southeast of the Hwys. 14/138 inter-change.

Wide-ranging discussion

The meeting was a wide-ranging discussion designed, in part, to bring the village’s new trustees – Doug Breth-auer and Jeff Boudreau – up to speed on the potential for village growth to the south-east.

It included presentations from Slavney, DOT project manager Mike Rampetsreiter and engineering consultant Dina Bertolini.

Mo Sweeney, who along with his brothers and sisters owns 252 acres east of Hwy. 14 and south of Hwy. 138, and Realtor Eric Grover also talked about their desire to develop their properties.

Sweeney indicated his family might be willing to

dedicate land for a new road that would extend from the “old” Hwy. 14 and end at Hwy. 138 to serve future development. The DOT plans to build a roundabout where the new road would meet the highway.

Sweeney indicated the offer to dedicate property is dependent on the village installing the utility sleeve and annexing the land.

The other relatively large property owner in the area southeast of the interchange is Bullsi LLC, owned by Grover and area farmer Joe Eugster. Grover told officials they would like their 22 acres developed, as well.

Their property is the only large parcel east of Hwy. 14 that’s in the village’s Urban Service Area.

If village officials decide they want to annex and develop the other lands east of Hwy. 14, they’ll have to petition the Capital Area Regional Planning Commis-sion to amend the village’s urban service area.

Roads bring development

Slavney told the board there would be “a burst of interest in redeveloping that area” when Hwy. 14 is rerouted.

He said a phased develop-ment “might make sense” in

the area and added that “three TIF districts in sequence could all cash-flow” if south-ern Dane County growth trends continue.

“The first phase has the most costs, because we have to get our utilities over from the (wastewater) treatment plant, and we’d have to build a looped water system,” Slavney said. “So the utility costs are high upfront – but it still cash-flows.”

He estimated the southeast interchange area would pro-vide the village with 30 to 50 years of commercial and industrial growth.

Village President Steve Staton asked how developing the area would affect the vil-lage’s vibrant downtown.

“I wouldn’t say that it won’t, but your downtown has uses that are not going to be drawn out to that highway location,” Slavney said.

“We don’t want to under-mine it – but I don’t think it would.”

Grover said if the vil-lage can create businesses in the southeast quadrant that complement what’s already downtown, “we might actu-

ally help our downtown.”

Park and rideWhat DOT presented,

however, was not what vil-lage officials had in mind.

DOT officials presented maps showing plans to build a Park and Ride on state property next to the inter-change, as well as a salt shed for the county highway department.

Slavney noted the property would be the most valuable in the area, given its proximi-ty to the interchange, and vil-lage officials see the property as a site for a future hotel.

Rampetsreiter explained that the DOT has a tentative agreement with the county in which the county would maintain the Park and Ride in exchange for allowing it to place a highway salt shed on the parcel.

“It’s a desirable location for the county for southern coverage,” he said.

Bertolini told the board that the DOT had met with Town of Rutland officials, the village and the prop-erty owners and “gave them the opportunity to discuss maybe doing a land swap or move the Park and Ride lot to another location. The consensus from all parties was that they did not, so we ended up coming back to the same place for the Park and Ride lot and salt shed.”

But Slavney said that was not the village’s understand-ing.

“ W e i n d i c a t e d w e wouldn’t want a Park and Ride and a salt shed here at this location,” he said.

Betolini seemed surprised and said “this is a highly desirable place for a Park and Ride lot.” She added that the county “is in dire need of a place that’s close to the high-way” for its road salt shed.

Staton reiterated the vil-lage’s position: “We don’t want the Park and Ride and salt shed at the front door of our community.”

The village would rather see the Park and Ride built at the intersection of Schuster Road and Hwy. MM, north of the village, Staton said. But, he added, the village does not want the responsi-bility to maintain it.

He asked the DOT to “look at that (Schuster Road site) some more.”

Bertolini said the DOT would be “wi l l ing to explore” an alternative site, “but right now we’ve got the land, we’ve got the participa-tion on maintenance, and at this point we’ve got a viable location.”

Terminating ‘old 14’Sweeney did not take a lot

of time addressing the meet-ing, but what he said seemed to carry considerable weight, given that his family owns the lion’s share of the prop-erty in the area.

He told the board his fam-ily recommends that the

village install the utility cas-ing (also called a “water sleeve”).

“Without that sleeve and sewer, it doesn’t make sense for landowners to dedicate roads and right of ways,” he said. “The village needs to move forward with a master plan to develop this area. We recommend that they take the lead to do this – right away. You should amend your 2014 budget to do this. You’ve fallen behind.”

Grover explained that if the village does not install the sleeve, “it doesn’t make a lot of sense for old 14 to go through Sweeney’s property. In a nutshell, that’s dedicat-ing the road.”

He also urged the DOT to consider placing the Park and Ride and salt storage shed in another location, away from the interchange.

“This is a good site for long-term commercial devel-opment,” Grover said. “It’s just not a pretty site for a Park and Ride.”

He warned that if the vil-lage decides not to install the sleeve, the landowners would work with the Town of Rutland “so that we can get a higher use on our prop-erty.”

“I don’t know that long-term that’s the best for the village,” he added. “It’s a financial thing for us. We need to make something hap-pen with our investment.”

Future growth for the Village of Oregon could take place east of Hwy.14 along Hwy. 138. Development of the area would require annexing land and installing a utility sleeve underneath Hwy. 14.

Moonlight shiningBrooklyn multimedia design business finds success out of home office

Scott GirardUnified Newspaper Group

Brit Springer went to col-lege to become a painter.

But in today’s technology age, she’s putting her art instincts to a different use: multimedia design.

Her business, formerly One Ear Productions and called Moonlight Designs Studio since 2012, is run out of her Brooklyn base-ment in a home office she shares with her husband.

Springer said she realized designing websites was something that could open more doors for her than painting, plus she already had skills because much of her painting was done on a computer before paper any-way.

“If I’m already on the computer, I might as well jump in,” Springer said.

And when she got a job with a company helping build websites for home building companies in Col-orado, she realized how much she enjoyed it, and even though she hadn’t been trained in graphic design, she quickly found success.

She expanded from only web design to full multi-media design, including print advertisements and logo design, when a client was unhappy with the dif-ferent branding between her website design and the ads for the side of a bus that another company had done.

“They said ‘we abso-lutely don’t like them,’” she said. “I was like ‘well I could have three of them for you by the end of the day.’

“As soon as it came off my tongue, I was like ‘oh my goodness, what did I

do?’ I’ve never done a print piece in my life and now I’m going to take a bus ad.”

That ad ended up remain-ing on the sides of Colo-rado buses for nine months, six more than originally planned, and driving by a bus with her ad on the side changed her perspective on what she was doing.

“While I was bummed I’m not a painter, per say, I have to look at it as a dif-ferent point of view. Now, instead of just being in a gallery, the world is now becoming my gallery. I’m

building and creating things and people are going to see it.”

She still takes that level of pride in her work, going over to the Brooklyn Busi-ness Complex on a recent day to take a “selfie” with the signs she had designed.

Springer enjoys doing local projects like the busi-ness complex, and has spent time doing designs for other small community groups around the Brooklyn area.

“I’ve learned, the more you give back the more comes back,” she said.

A blog post about that very idea led one of her biggest clients, Little Free Library, right to her and the

group asked if she would design a new logo.

After some initial hesi-tation, Springer decided “What the heck? Why not?”

She did, and after the logo proved successful they asked her to redesign the company website as well, which launched in Septem-ber 2013 as the largest web-site she’d built.

“I really enjoy what they were trying to do, which is bring the community together,” she said. “They make it known that they appreciate everything that I’ve done.”

Though “the artist in” her motivates her to keep doing what she’s grown to

love, she also recognizes where her focus must be to continue her business’ suc-cess with clients from Wis-consin, South Carolina and Colorado.

“My business will only be as successful as my cli-ents,” she said. “If their businesses are successful then they’re going to keep coming back.”

More than $84K raised at Puppy Walk

C h a l e t V e t e r i n a r y Cl in ic of S toughton hosted a team of 22 staff members, doctors, cli-ents and their canine companions to partici-pate in the first Puppy Up! Walk.

Puppies were a-plenty at McKee Farms Park Fitchburg Sunday at the walk.

The walk was orga-nized by members of the Dane County Veterinary Medical Associa t ion to raise funds for com-parative cancer research. Walks like this are being held across the country by the parent organi-zation 2 Million Dogs Foundation, an organi-zation founded by Luke Robinson who walked over 2,000 miles with his two dogs to raise aware-ness for cancer research and treatment.

More than 700 people walked on Sunday with around 200-300 dogs.

Total funds raised were estimated to be $84,000.

The goa l o f these walks is both to raise money and awareness of the importance of comparative oncology. Cancer has touched the lives of many people and their pets. Since can-cers in cats, dogs, and people often are similar, advances made in cancer treatment in one species are used to enhance the treatment of cancer in another. Both human and canine cancer survivors participated in Sunday’s walk.

2 Million Dogs Foun-dation has donated funds for the study of breast cancer, bone cancer and bladder cancer to collab-orative studies at institu-tions like Harvard, Uni-versity of Pennsylvania, MIT, Animal Medical Center of New York, and Sloan Kettering.

Sunday’s Puppy Up! Walk brought animal lovers out to raise more than $84K for comparative cancer research. Chalet Veterinary Clinic of Stoughton hosted a team of 22 staff.

Rocky Mandt Owner name: Mandt SandfillPet name: Rocky MandtPet’s age: 7Breed: CatHow long have you had your

pet? 3 years

What makes your pet special? Rocky is our office cat at Mandt Sandfill. He loves people – he greets every customer who walks in our office.

If it’s not a lick of your hand, its a please pet me. He has grown on all our employees. Every morning Rocky is here to start the day with all of us. We all love him.

About my pet: He is always willing to be dressed up for differ-ent occasions along with pictures that we share on his Facebook fan page. He has a awesome personal-ity and is an all around cool cat. We all love having him around.

GrantOwner name: Darlene GroenierPet name: GrantPet’s age: Six to eight years oldBreed: I have a Golden

Retriever, ninety pound, red, curly, and furry dog. A neighbor calls him “Big Red.

How long have you had your pet? About 4 years

What makes your pet special? I rescue him from BARK (Bosco-bel Area Rescue Kennel. He had

lots of wood ticks and Lyme dis-ease. I nursed him back to great health.

About my pet: He is great walker and we walk twice daily even when it snowing, raining, sleet, icy. and he loves the cold.

We have a fenced in back yard but likes to lay in the garage in front. The only time he goes out of the yard is to see the next door neighbor kids, so they can pet him and then right back in the garage. I hope he lives to a hundred and I think he is just the greatest dog.

When he meets people when we walk, he wants everyone to pet him. He likes little dogs that do not bark.

was really cold out this win-ter I put a coat and boots on Toby, and when he gets outside it is funny to watch him run around like a crazy because his feet are nice and warm. He has outfits for lots of different kinds of temper-atures and holidays.

BaileyPet owners: Cindy and

Charlie BoydPet name: BaileyPet’s age: 13 1/2What kind of pet do you

BeyaOwner name: Sherry &

John LangePet name: BeyaPet’s age: 4 yearsBreed: Boston TerrierHow long have you had

special? Her previous owner

selected us as Beya’s adoptive family and we are extremely grateful. She has such a great personality and keeps on our toes at all times.

About my pet: We got together with family for the Final Four game and the weather was finally nice. Beya got to play outside with three Boxers and had the time of her life. She was run ragged. During the game she got to explore their toy box. She slept the next day!

AshlynnOwner name: Kerry VogelPet name: Ashlynn Ann

VogelPet’s age: 6 years oldBreed: Cat. Domestic

Shorthair.How long have you had

your pet? I have had Ash-lynn since she was just a few months old.

What makes your pet special? Ashlynn is special because she is my constant shadow. She does everything I do at the same time I do. She is very friendly and docile but she is for sure a one person cat and that person is me. For example, when I am brushing

my teeth in the morning she sits on the side of the sink and watches me. When I get into bed at night she jumps up onto my pillow and paws at my head until I let her under the covers to snuggle. When my alarm goes off in the morning she stretches and jumps out of bed right behind me. In fact she hardly ever stays asleep while I am awake.

About my pet: A few months after I got Ashlynn I I received a framed picture of her as a gift from one of my relatives. I put the picture in the middle of my kitch-en table as the centerpiece. Before the picture Ashlynn never had any interest in climbing on top of the table. However, the same day I put the picture up I came home from work later that day to find her on top of the table sitting next to it.

Krueger pitches well in tough lossAnthony IozzoAssistant sports editor

A win seemed imminent for the Oregon High School baseball team last Friday at Stampfl Field, especially with the way senior Jack Krueger was pitch-ing.

Krueger shut Verona down for six innings and tallied five strikeouts, but after a walk in the seventh, he was pulled for a having a high pitch count. Junior Andrew Pliner and senior Ross Galloway came in to try and close out the game, but the Wildcats continued to rally until an RBI single by senior Jef-frey Reinholtz ended the game in a 3-2 loss.

The pitching was a question mark in the non-conference game that may have seeding implications in a month. With the weather forcing postponements

early on, the Panthers were in the midst of playing six times in seven days.

So when Pliner told Connor he want-ed to pitch, Connor decided to give him 30 pitches to get it done last Friday to save some of his other arms for later in the week.

“(Pliner) came in and tried to throw

strikes. That is tough,” Connor said. “Hindsight, maybe I go to a different guy, but with arms going the way they are right now, we have to use who we have. He was available, and I went to him.

“To Verona’s credit, they clutched up. They got hits when they needed to and got it done.”

Verona senior Tony Granick worked Krueger for a walk to lead off the sev-enth and force the pitching change. Pliner came in, but Verona was able to load the bases with no outs after a walk to sophomore Keaton Knueppel and a fielder’s choice by senior Mitch Flora. Junior David Rogowski followed with an RBI fielder’s choice that put runners on the corners with one out, and sopho-more Ben Rortvedt followed with an RBI single.

The Oregon  High School boys lacrosse team traveled to DeForest on May 2 and won 10-9 in double overtime. Trent Ricker scored with an assist from Lukas Schuman with less than 10 sec-onds left to play. 

Dan Gorman scored a goal, Christian Poe added three points and Ricker fin-ished with six goals. 

The Panthers face Madison Memorial at 5 p.m. Friday, May 9, at home.

Torpy stars for Team Wisconsin

Oregon goaltender Ken-z ie Torpy and Verona defenseman Steph Keryluk played starring roles for Team Wisconsin last month as the squad skated to the 2014 CCM NIT title.

Twenty-one hours after falling 2-0 against the Min-nesota Senior team, a jubi-lant TW squad floated off the frozen surface after turning the tables on the MN Senior team in Plym-outh, Minn.

Keryluk opened the scor-ing April 29 about eight minutes into the first peri-od to give TW a 1-0 lead. Holly Turnbull pinched down from her right defen-sive spot to grab the puck before she passed it back to Keryluk, who was cover-ing at the point, and Kery-luk’s hard shot through traffic beat the Minnesota goalie,  with Turnbull and Courtney Wittig earning helpers.

The score remained the same until early in the third period, with much of the credit going to Torpy. The junior from Oregon turned aside all 38 shots fired at her in the contest, with the shot breakdown not given.

Keryluk tallied her sec-ond goal just under six min-utes into the final period to account for the 2-0 final. Keryluk got a pass after the TW forwards  cycled the puck down low and ripped a shot from the left circle that beat the Minnesota goalie on the blocker side. Wittig and Kelsey Rafferty were credited with assists on the score.

Minnesota outshot TW 38-33, but Torpy was the difference-maker with her shutout of the high-powered Minnesota team, which scored 26 goals in the tour-ney, leading all teams.

The conference meet is set for May 20 at Stoughton High School.

GIRLSOregon’s girls track and

field team split Tuesday’s Madison Edgewood triangu-lar, falling two points shy of the host Crusaders.

Frustrations mounting for PanthersJeremy JonesSports editor

The Oregon softball team had five hits, but once again failed to string anything together Tuesday, falling 13-0 against Badger South Conference rival Milton.

Oregon found out last week it will be even thinner on the mound as senior Cee Cee Herale most likely won’t throw again this season.

Freshman Jayme Zander continued to swing a hot bat, collecting a double.

The Panthers travel to Stoughton for a 5 p.m. game against the Vikings on Fri-day.

Oregon then heads to Mount Horeb on Saturday to face the Vikings, New Glarus and Belleville over the weekend.

Oregon hosts Fort Atkinson at 5 p.m. Tuesday, May 13.

Zander collected a two-run single against Whitefish Bay. Julia Schmidt finished 2-for-3 with a double.

HTL drops debut after 7-year hiatusAfter a seven-year hiatus, the host Oregon

Orioles home talent team went into extra innings against last Sunday against Dodgeville.

Scoreless through five innings, the Orioles allowed the first run of the game in the top of the sixth.

Oregon, which was held to just one hit, answered three innings later and eventually forced extra innings, however.

The visiting Knights eventually broke through with three runs in the top of the 10th inning to take the Western Section game 4-1.

Former OHS ace Ben Riffle tossed nine innings, allowing one earned run on four hits and two walks. He struck out 11. Riffle helped pitch Stoughton to the HTL Final Four

championship game a year ago.The Orioles next home is on Sunday, May

18, against Verona. Game time is at 1 p.m. at the OHS baseball diamond.

Oregon opens Thursday Night League action at 7:30 p.m. May 15 in Mount Horeb.

Haseleu Wins Joe Shear Classic at MISNathan Haseleu of Pardeeville won Friday’s

Joe Shear Classic for the ARCA Midwest Tour at Madison International Speedway. 

Haseleu picked up the win by 0.144 seconds over Kyle Shear. Skylar Holzhausen, Jeremy Miller and Nick Murgic rounded out the top five.  

Haseleu becomes the first repeat winner in the six years of the “Classic.” He won the inaugural race in 2009.

Senior John Moynihan then reached base after a hit by pitch, allowing senior Jeffrey Reinholtz to step up to the plate with the bases loaded and one out.

With Galloway pitching, Reinholtz ripped the ball into left field for the game-winner.

“It was a well-pitched game on both sides,” Verona head coach Brad D’Orazio said. “We just couldn’t hit the first six innings, just get-ting underneath everything. Krueger did a nice job of working ahead of our guys.”

Oregon struck first after a lead-off triple by Galloway and an RBI groundout by Pliner. Pliner later scored the second run in the sixth on a suicide squeeze bunt RBI by senior Logan Laski.

But the runs were tough to come by for the Panthers as Verona junior pitcher Jake Toman was also dialed in. Toman went all seven innings for the win and gave up five hits and two walks, one inten-tional. He added three strike-outs.

But the Panthers did hit the ball hard, which is something Connor said came from a 6-3 loss to Libertyville (Ill.) on April 30 at Miller Park.

“I think playing at Miller Park against a team like Lib-ertyville with guys that were throwing hard and a team like that with one pitcher after another, I think that preps them to say, ‘OK. I can hit this,’” Connor said. “Toman was good today too. He was attacking them, and guys were taking good cuts and good approaches at the plate.”

Krueger picked up a no decision, allowing a run on four hits and five walks. He

struck out four. Pliner picked up the loss, allowing two runs on a hit and a walk. Galloway came in for the one batter and allowed the game-winning single.

Oregon played at Monona Grove Wednesday but results could not make the Tuesday deadline of the Observer. Oregon plays at 5 p.m. Friday against Stoughton at home and hosts Oconomowoc at 5 p.m. Monday, May 12. The Panthers close the week at 5 p.m. Tuesday at Fort Atkin-son.

Libertyville 6, Oregon 3Oregon traveled to Miller

Park in Milwaukee for a non-conference game against Lib-ertyville (Ill.) April 30 and lost 6-3. No stats were avail-able as the Observer went to press.

Oregon 8, Portage 7The Panthers bounced back

from last Friday’s loss with an 8-7 win against Portage at home Saturday in the first game of a doubleheader.

Senior Will Reinicke was 2-for-2 with two RBIs and a run scored, while senior Jere Bauer was 3-for-4 with two runs scored an RBI. Senior Pierce Peterson was 2-for-4 with an RBI and a run scored, and senior Tyler Mortensen was 2-for-4 with two runs scored and an RBI.

Junior Mitch Weber was 2-for-4 with a run scored, and Laski and Pliner each added RBIs.

Junior Travis Fluckiger allowed four earned runs on seven hits in 6 1/3 innings for the win. He struck out five and walked four. Gallo-way picked up the save. He allowed a hit and struck out a batter.

La Follette 11, Oregon 8Oregon fell in the second

game of a doubleheader Sat-urday to Madison La Follette, 11-8.

The Lancers scored four times in the sixth to take a six-run lead. The Panthers scored twice in the sixth and once in the seventh but fell short of a comeback.

Junior Chris McGuine was 2-for-5 with two RBIs and a run scored, while Laski was 3-for-5 with a run scored. Senior Colin Byron had two runs scored and an RBI, while senior Austin Adams and Krueger also scored twice.

Senior Bryan Putnam and junior Parker DeBroux each added an RBI.

Putnam picked up the loss, allowing three earned runs on six hits. He struck out one and walked one. Junior Luke Mueller pitched the final 1 2/3 innings and allowed a run on one hit. He struck out two and walked two.

Laski picked up the win in six innings of work. He allowed three earned runs on seven hits. He struck out six and walked three.

Boys tennis Softball

Though inconsistent, Oregon drops MonroeJeremy JonesSports editor

Oregon boys tennis hosted Monroe in a Badger South Conference dual meet Tuesday and despite a 6-1 victory, Pan-thers head coach Ben Conklin wasn’t all that impressed.

“Tonight was not our best match,” Conklin said. “We were inconsistent, especially our doubles’ teams, perhaps because we haven’t had a match since April 26. We looked rusty.”

Freshman Calvin Schneider stepped up to No. 1 singles with his brother out and rolled 6-2, 6-0.

Brady Behrend moved up to No. 2 singles and played another nice match, winning 6-2, 6-3.

Continuing the upswing, freshman Charles Donovan started slow but fin-ished out a 6-3, 6-2 win at No. 3 singles.

Nate Ironmonger had by far the clos-est match of the evening, but was unable to get over the hump. He fell 6-4, 7-6 (5) at No. 4 singles.

Oregon’s No. 1 doubles team of Alec Onesti and Dakota Tollakson split their first two sets before finally taking over

in the third, winning 6-2, 5-7, 6-1 atop the lineup.

Jackson Wilhelm and Drew Christ-offerson were inconsistent at times, though they held on to win 6-4, 6-4.

Matt Reisdorf and Spencer Kresbach pulled out another close match, 7-5, 6-2.

“Overall, we need to get back to a higher level of play,” Conklin said.

The Panthers host Monona Grove in a conference dual meet at 4:30 p.m. Friday. Oregon singles’ players travel to Stoughton the following day for the Vikings’ annual invitational meet.

Doubles action will take place at Ore-gon High School.

Big Foot, Jefferson, Monroe, Janes-ville Parker, Sauk Prairie, St. John Northwestern and Milton will all be at the tournament.

Stoughton hosts the Panthers in con-ference action at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 13.

Oregon has yet to set a date for its dual meet make-up match against Madi-son Edgewood, which was originally scheduled for Tuesday, April 29. Both teams remain undefeated in conference action.

RICHARD R. “PUTT” PUTNAM

Richard R. “Putt” Put-nam, age 91, of Oregon, passed away on Sunday, May 4, 2014, of acute leu-kemia.

He was born on July 25, 1922, in Madison, the son of Raymond and Rose (Peterson) Putnam. He married Vera Pledger on Sept. 27, 1942, in Oregon.

Putt served three years o v e r s e a s duty (Army) in the Euro-pean Theater during World War II, after which he came home to work for Dawes and New-ton and then for the Dane County Highway Dept., where he retired as a super-visor after 41 years. He was a self taught man; there wasn’t anything he couldn’t fix, including electrical, plumbing, carpentry or

machinery. After Richard’s retirement, he finally found time to do the wood work-ing he had always longed to do. He and Vera also spent 27 winters in Florida. His favorite place in the world was his garage where he could always find some-thing to do.

Putt is survived by his wife, Vera; sister, Doris Owen, Ocala, Fla.; and numerous nieces, nephews, other relatives and friends. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Stanley Putnam; and sis-ters, Helen Denton, Ramo-na Steichen and Norma Put-nam.

Funeral services will be held at Gunderson Oregon Funeral Home, 1150 Park St., Oregon, at 1 p.m. on Saturday, May 10, 2014, with the Rev. Jason Mahn-ke officiating. A luncheon will follow. Visitation will be held at the funeral home from 11 a.m. until the time of the service on Saturday. Interment will be in Prairie Mound Cemetery at a later date.

Memorials may be made to The Wisconsin Chapter of the Leukemia & Lym-phoma Society, 434 South Yellowstone Drive, Suite 205, Madison, WI 53719. Online condolences may be made at www.gundersonfh.com.

I have lost a life compan-ion

A life linked close to my own.

Now I have only memo-ries

As I travel life’s highway alone.

There is a vacant place at the table

And an empty rocking chair

The couch whereyou always restedIs now so lonely and bare.When the dawn of morn-

ingwakes meHow sad to knowyou’re not in viewAnd when evening shad-

owsstart to fallMy thoughts my love are

all of you.I’m so lonely here without

youSorrow grief and many

tearsBut I thank our Heavenly

FatherFor giving us so many

good years.Sleep on my loveand take your restThis is God’s plan we

shall abideWhen he calls me as he

has youThen I’ll be resting by

your side.Love, Vera

Introduction to the community

Last month, Oregon High School hosted a well-attended STEAM open house, where people got to see and hear about new things going on in the program, and even try out some fun gadgets like student-built “fighting robots.” OSD director of instruction and student achievement Anita Koehler said the program helps with real-world problem-solving, design and production.

The purpose of the event was to familiarize people with what STEAM integration looks like across curricular areas.

“We plan to offer more opportunities to share with our community the work many teachers are doing to expand this type of integration across subject areas so students have experience,” she said. “In order for STEAM to be successful, it is essential to have strong partnerships between our schools and our community.”

Real-world motivationThis summer, K-5 teach-

ers will attend training for an elementary STEAM program, “Engineering is Elementary.” It focuses on project-based activities that require a “solid knowledge base, higher level thinking and problem-solving skills, and connections with sci-ence-related careers.”

Once trained, the group of teachers and administra-tors will explore this cur-riculum and make recom-mendations for changes to the district’s K-5 science curriculum.

“Research shows that students who understand the purpose and real-world application of their learn-ing are more motivated to learn,” Koehler said. “The more we can engage stu-dents in project-based, higher level thinking and problem-solving activities, the better prepared they will be for their future. It is our goal to expand these learn-ing opportunities PK-12 across our district.”

Oregon High School offers three agriculture courses that provide stu-dents with high school sci-ence credit. OHS principal Kelly Meyers said STEAM

fits well into the district’s ongoing efforts to “provide students with educational opportunities to secure experiences for what we know to be the an increas-ing area of employment for future jobs and careers.”

Meyers said some classes are “cross-walked,” where students can get credit beyond electives for taking courses, like principles of engineering.

STEAM education is no fad, either. Last May, Ore-gon School Board members determined the program was one of their top five priorities for the district.

B o a r d m e m b e r R a e Vogeler, part of the dis-trict’s STEAM task force, has often met with teach-ers to find out more about the integrated approach and came away “very impressed,” noting that they had even drawn up an architectural STEAM plan for their school to include in a possible future referen-dum.

“ T h e y a r e p a s s i o n -ate about this integrated approach to learning and are providing excellent edu-cation for our students,” she told the Observer.
