Mursau presents check to G-A School District At the May 28, 2014 Goodman-Armstrong Creek School Board Meeting, Representative Jeff Mursau presented a check for $11,156.57 for the district's share of the 25% NFI (National Forest Income) payment for timber harvest from the National Forest within the district's boundaries. This new legislation will provide a return to area schools for land within school district boundaries that is not taxable. With any increase in timber harvest within the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest, future NFI payments to local school districts will increase also, providing much needed funding for maintaining current programming in area schools. Presently the Chequamegon-Nicolet National Forest annual harvest levels are just less than one-half of the Forest Service's management plans. If harvest levels within the approved management plans can be fully satisfied, the recent payments to area schools will more than double in the coming years. Accepting Goodman-Armstrong Creek School District's portion of the NFI payment from Representative Jeff Mursau is G-AC School Board Vice-President David Ziolkowski.

Laura was a member of the recently established Leadership Club at Laona. She enjoyed tutoring 7th grade students this year as well as taking Spanish and French classes in high school. Her favorite memories of high school are not limited to a single event but rather all of the special activities that were done as a class such as the various sporting events, homecoming and prom. Her words of wisdom to underclassmen: “Hard work pays off. Grades matter, and you should always put school work before anything else.” While she is glad to see her high school career come to an end she is also going to miss her classmates and teachers, and is saddened by the thought that she may never see them again, thus she suggests that we all cherish the special times we have with others. Laura will be moving to Arizona shortly, where she will establish residency and then apply to attend a university there.

We believe that being a Christian means that you need to have a personal saving relationship with Jesus Christ and that worship of Christ should be personal and practical, based on the work of God. It should be enjoyable and pointed. Are you trying to find light at the end of the tunnel? We all need hope. Life can be hard. At times we face unrelenting heartache. No amount of tears can bring it to an end. Most of us face difficult times more often than we would like. Yet as difficult as life can be, hope guides us and gets us through the storms of life. Take away hope and even the small things can crush us! The news regularly shows us stories of harmful and evil situations that people endure. Daily, we are wounded by actions of others who never get headlines... but hurt us deeply. We wonder how can God allow bad things to happen to good people. We have fallen away from God's original design and what He did to heal our brokenness. God is in the business of restoring us to His beautiful original intentions. He loves you infinitely and will restore you. Know that JESUS can get you back on track. Come join us and experience the saving healing power of God.

Protect the Forest from the Emerald Ash Borer: leave your firewood at home Rhinelander, Wis. – June 2, 2014: The campgrounds are now open all across the ChequamegonNicolet National Forest and firewood restrictions are in place to slow the spread of Emerald Ash Borer. This invasive beetle loves to travel on firewood so please leave firewood at home, unless you live within 25 miles of your National Forest destination. The firewood restriction is one way of slowing the spread of Emerald Ash Borer, an exotic beetle from Asia that kills ash trees. This invasive insect’s larva kills ash trees by destroying the soft layer of wood just under the bark. Since 2002, EAB has spread to 22 states, including Wisconsin and two Canadian provinces. While federal and state agencies are doing what they can to prevent new infestation sites and slow the spread, the insect continues to be discovered in new locations. Movement of infested wood or nursery stock being transported from one location to another is likely the cause of new infestations beyond normal dispersal patterns of the insect. The risk of an EAB infestation on the National Forest within several years even with quarantines and firewood restrictions is very high. Acceptable firewood to bring to the CNNF includes: --- Wood gathered from within the Forest with a valid permit --- Firewood purchased from a vendor within 25 miles of the national forest destination or brought from home that same distance --- Wood that has been certified by the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (certified wood can be brought into the Forest from a distance of more than 25 miles) In addition, state and federal laws forbid moving hardwood firewood out of emerald ash borer quarantined areas. Currently, this means hardwood firewood that has been stored, purchased, or harvested in the following areas may not be moved out of these areas in Wisconsin: Brown, Crawford, Dane, Dodge, Douglas, Fond du Lac, Jefferson, Kenosha, La Crosse, Milwaukee, Ozaukee, Racine, Rock, Sauk, Sheboygan, Trempealeau, Vernon, Walworth, Washington, Waukesha and Winnebago counties. These counties are under quarantine. A federal quarantine also prohibits the movement of hardwood firewood out of all or parts of more than twenty other states and parts of Canada.

PIONEER EXPRESS PAGE 5, JUNE 9, 2014 Pre-College Academies for 9th, 10th graders coming to Nicolet College Northwoods 9th and 10th graders are invited to five fun-filled Saturdays at Nicolet College were they’ll have the chance to explore different career fields through a wide variety of hands-on activities. The college’s popular Pre-College Academies will kick off this fall with the Environmental Science Academy, followed by academies for those interested in Engineering and Health Occupations. “Everything will be designed around hands-on activities that are fun for students,” said Teri Phalin, PK-16 coordinator and Career Coach at Nicolet College. “They’ll learn a wide variety of skills that will help them succeed in high school and also be better prepared academically when they start college. It’s also a great way for students to explore careers in these fields.” Each academy will run from 9:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. The Environmental Science Academy will be held on five Saturdays from Sept. 21 to Oct. 19. Students will literally get their feet wet and help the Northwoods environment by collecting water samples from local waterways in the hunt for aquatic invasive species (AIS). After several field trips to work with DNR and AIS professionals on the water, students will return to campus labs to analyze and identify their finds. They’ll document their fieldwork and lab results with digital video cameras, and then learn to edit footage in Nicolet's Digital Media Lab to produce a series of short, educational videos about the danger of the spread of AIS. Both the Engineering and Health Occupations Academies will run on five consecutive Saturdays from Jan. 25 to Feb. 22. During the Engineering Academy students will examine engineering applications for aeronautics, architecture, electronics, and manufacturing. They’ll apply basic engineering design processes to define, build, and test solutions to various engineering situations. Activities include designing a better boat, land surveying, manufacturing, and building a glider. A field trip to a local manufacturer is also planned. Students in the Health Sciences Academy will interact with Nicolet’s high-tech human patient simulator to perform injections and obtain vital signs, view x-rays, and even wear surgical attire. Working in teams, students will examine various organisms in the lab, and study the relationships of medical conditions, diseases, and other health complications. Planning and creating simple healthy meals and snacks is also a part of the Academy. For more information on any of the Academies listed below, contact Nicolet College’s PK-16 Pathways office at (715) 365-4464, 1-800-544-3039, ext. 4464; TTY 1800-947-3529; or by email at tphalin@nicoletcollege.edu.

Dr. Shepich spoke to the AARP members about wood ticks and Lyme disease. Several members got their first chance to meet Dr. Shepich and many were very interested in the topic that she presented. Since contact with wood ticks is a problem in our area there was a lot of discussion on prevention, signs and symptoms, and treatment. The Nicolet AARP Group had their Spring Fling Dinner at Tracy’s Place south of Mountain enjoying tasty dinners of beef and ham. Thirty one members enjoyed the dinner and the cheesecake dessert. On July 15th several members will be going to the “Kids from Wisconsin” concert in Antigo at a cost of $8.00 per person. On August 11, 2014 the Nicolet AARP summer picnic will be held again at the Mountain Community Center. That will be a pot luck event with brats and burgers provided.

Names will not be withheld upon request, except for very special circumstances. NAME AND PHONE NUMBER SHOULD BE INCLUDED FOR VERIFICATION PURPOSES. We reserve the right to reject any and all letters. To the Editor: Well, W.O.R.V.P.I. {Wisconsin Off Road Vehicle Park Inc.}had their {by invite only}big press release last week. Were You comfortable with the little information on W.O.R.V.P.I.'s planned Off Road Vehicle Park that did trickle down to You the citizens and taxpayers of Forest County from the big Press Release, 30 second Media sound bites, and then closed session of the County Board? Do You want to own a 10,293 acre Off Road Vehicle Campground and Park? The Park to be located by John Schnorr's {W.O.R.V.P.I.'s president}own words, "12 miles from Crandon, 12 miles from Laona, pretty much 12 miles from anywhere" {taken from his interview with WRJO radio}. Do you think we need two Off Road Campgrounds or Parks in Forest County? One Park already in place, just outside Crandon, already world class, already being operated successfully, privately owned, paying taxes, and now hopefully soon to be open to the public for just the type of fun that Off Roaders are looking for. {see the front page of the Pioneer Express from last week}. And then you have W.O.R.V.P.I.' s, idea of a Park, lets have the Forest County Taxpayer borrow millions of dollars, put the County Millions of Dollars in Debt, to wave our wand, pull some levers, and create, a Forest County Taxpayer owned, W.O.R.P.I. operated, 12 miles from anywhere, "Lambeau Field of Off Road Parks", on 10,293 acres of very environmentally sensitive forest lands? It is my belief that our Forest County Supervisors are going to be asked at their next County Board meeting whether or not they want the County to get involved in W.O.R.V.P.I.'s planned Yellow Brick Road Off Road Park. I must ask, what's the rush? Perhaps W.O.R.V.P.I. who has maintained so much secrecy curtaining this project doesn't want you to weigh in? If you have an opinion on whether you feel Forest County should get into the Off Road Vehicle Park business, I'm asking you to weigh in with your County Board Supervisor [OR ANY SUPERVISOR YOU KNOW], they each represent all of us, as soon as possible. The next meeting of the Board is scheduled for June 17th, 7:00pm. And remember, County Board meetings are open to the public. I will applaud our current County Board Chairman and the rest of the Board for being willing to listen to taxpayer concerns at each of the meetings I have recently attended. I hear repeated calls from all over this County, for a County wide Referendum to be held on the issue of the County getting involved in owning an Off Road Vehicle Park. I highly suggest that you mention a Referendum to whichever {or all of}the County Board Members you contact, a Referendum on this issue would give us all {Pro or Con}a chance to weigh in on this issue before making any binding decisions! And in the risk of sounding a little like W.O.R.V.P.I. I'll state "Act now, this is a limited time offer.......". Jim Odekirk Cavour,Wi. AD DEADLINE 4 P.M.

Washington D.C.- U.S. Representative Sean Duffy (WI-07) heralded the passage of his amendment to the Commerce Justice and Science Appropriations bill to prohibit funds from being used by the National Telecommunications and Information Administration to relinquish critical Internet responsibilities: "I am grateful to the many constituents and organizations who voiced their strong support for this amendment, and to my colleagues - on both sides of the aisle - for voting for it. "As Americans, we value our Constitutional right of Freedom of Speech and have promoted this value throughout the world. The U.S. is best positioned to maintain and protect a free and open Internet, through its stewardship of these critical functions, as it has done for decades. "We should not give up this stewardship and allow the United Nations or countries like China, Iran, or Russia, that do not hold free speech in the same regard, the opportunity to take control. If the U.S. turns over this responsibility to the international community, there is no turning back." The Heritage Foundation, American Conservative Union, Americans for Limited Government, Americans for Tax Reform’s Digital Liberty, and the Institute for Policy Innovation all offered support for this amendment. Rep. Duffy’s amendment passed the House of Representatives by a bipartisan 229 to 178 vote, and was in included in the full Commerce, Science & Justice Appropriations bill which passed the House by a 321 to 87 vote.

Fast Paced Environment Serious, Hardworking Applicants Only Please American Legion Post 44 marks graves with flags Graves at Lakewood, Townsend, Carter and Wabeno are checked for indication of military service and a flag is placed on Memorial Day as a matter of respect. To solve the problem of how to locate veterans’ graves during flag decoration, a decal small enough, but subtle and bright enough to be seen, will be purchased and placed on the corner of a veterans’ gravestone by Post 44. The decal is made with aggressive outdoor adhesive for moderately rough surface. Decorating the graves of military veterans is just one of the activities and services that the American Legion Post 44, Wabeno, perform throughout the year. One of the reasons why it’s important to be part of the American Legion is because it is a place where you know you can rely on the guy next to you as he knows he can rely on you.

The Color Guard advanced the Colors and The National Anthem was sung admirably by two high school students, Andrew Boor & Sara Jennings, pictured with Ron Boeldt, Post 44 Commander, who welcomed those attending, followed by a solemn invocation delivered by Dave Krizek, Post 44 Chaplain. In honor of the POW-MIA Ceremony, Wes Tucker read “The Empty Chair”. Charles Enders, US Army Veteran was guest speaker. The Wabeno High School Band led by Michelle Boor, did the honor of performing a patriotic musical tribute to all veterans and military. Jerry LaFond, from Boy Scout Troop #1048 did the Wreath Laying honor followed by the Gun Salute and the playing of Taps by Ellie Donaldson of the Wabeno High School Band. Shuttle buss transportation was available to and from the Veterans War Memorial Park thanks to the Wabeno School District. . At the conclusion a lunch and fellowship was held at the Legion Post. On Saturday, May 24th, the Legion also participated in the Town of Riverview Memorial Service The 2014 Season is just beginning and the Legion and Auxiliary are proud to be able to participate in the parades in Mountain for Memorial Day, honoring our veterans, in Townsend and White Lake for Independence Day, in Lakewood for Mardi Gras Days, in Wabeno for Steam-up Days and in Suring for Labor Day. When marching, the enthusiasm and response from the people on the parade route is an uplifting experience, showing their respect to the Flag by applauding, taking their hats off or putting their hands over their hearts. Marching for the men and women that gave their lives for our country is an amazing experience. Throughout the year, when requested by the family, the Wabeno American Legion Color Guard participates in Military Funeral Honors for eligible veterans. Kids making a difference Seventh Grade students across the nation are now required to write proposals for community service as part of the Common Core Standards. Mrs. Bradley’s seventh graders in Crandon Middle School worked very hard at this writing project. However, instead of just writing sophisticated proposals, they also created persuasive presentations trying to promote their team ideas. After their presentations, students voted in a private booth to choose which idea to set into action. Last year’s group cleaned, painted and repaired Cardinal Park. This year’s seventh graders made bracelets and sold them. One hundred percent of the proceeds went to our local chapter of the Cancer Society, Ties That Bind Us. We are very proud of all of the students who got involved with a project that reached out to help others. PIONEER EXPRESS PAGE 22, JUNE 9, 2014 Hempfer Insurance Services, Inc.

The Ties That Bind Us at the first annual Colors of Cancer 5k received a $4,000 check from the Potawatomi Carter Casino which was raised from their “Pink” inventory in honor of Breast Cancer Awareness. The organization was also surprised by a second check for $1589.00 that was raised from a special Bingo game that was held after the casino lost a very loyal guest of ours, Bertha “Birtie” Pemma, to cancer. The Colors of Cancer 5k brought in a total of $20,000 to help cancer patients in Forest County. All proceeds from this event will stay in Forest County and the organization will be looking at other needs in the county to help cancer patients. The Ties That Bind Us would like to acknowledge all the volunteers and participants that made the first year such a success.
