Oregon Homecoming
2013 had a Las Vegas
theme and on a hot and
sunny Friday afternoon,
Oregonians may have
thought they were
in that weather. The
streets were lined with
different ages from
young to old decked
out in orange and black
hats, facepaint, beads,
sunglasses and tutus.

Newcomer sparks
interest in pump
house, water tower

Sometimes it takes fresh
eyes to gain a new per-
spective or renew an old
one.

Gl ysch, a
s c i e n t i s t
empl oyed
b y t h e
s t a t e ,
moved t o
Oregon in
June after
many years
i n Ma di -
son. One of the things he
noticed soon after arriv-
ing was that the villages
historic water tower and
pump house seemed rather
neglected.
A former president of
his neighborhood associa-
tion for 17 years, Glysch
is also a certified master
gardener. That explains
his interest in landscaping,
which is what he thinks
should happen to improve
t he l ook of t he pump
house property on Janes-
ville Street.
Its a cute little build-
ing, he said. I think
wed like to start with
some landscaping, which
is really a simple thing to
spruce up the building. Its
not a big project.
Glysch attended the vil-
lages Historic Preserva-
tion Commission meeting
on Wednesday, Sept. 18,
to talk about fixing up the
pump house and water
tower.
He al so cont act ed a
coupl e HPC members,
Julia Meyers and Arlan
Kay, to get their take on
his idea. Both expressed
interest and support for it.
Kay, chair of the HPC,
suggest ed t hat Gl ysch
form some sort of com-
munity organization a
Friends of the Historic
Water Tower, for example
to back the project.
I absolutely support
his idea and would love
to see a Friends of the
Water Tower organization
that could spearhead an
effort and possibly raise
some funds, Kay told the
Observer. We are very
interested in seeing an
organization that is bigger
than just one person.
Af t e r t a l ki ng wi t h
Kay and Meyers, Glysch
checked with village staff
and learned there is a

Focus groups seek long-term vision
Scott De laruelle
Looking for more public
input and participation in
forming its next referendum
after the last one was defeat-
ed, Oregon School District
members are hoping upcom-
ing focus groups can help
provide some guidance.
During the referendum
last February, voters in the
Oregon School District
firmly said no to $33 mil-
lion in school and athletic
field upgrades. Later that
year, however, 77 percent of
nearly 1,400 district residents
said they wanted to hear
more refined plans from the
district on its needs.
Now, with the school
board earl i er t hi s year
approving a report listing
up to $60 million in poten-
tial school upgrades, district
officials are clearly upping
the effort both in making the
public more aware of needs
and finding what residents
do or dont want included
in a future referendum that
seems increasingly likely.
The first of three focus group
meetings was held Tuesday
in Brooklyn, with additional
two-hour meetings scheduled
for 6 p.m., Monday, Oct. 7,
at the Fitchburg Community
Library and 6 p.m., Tuesday,
Oct. 8, at the Oregon High
School Library.

ident Courtney Odorico said

to preserving and restoring
the water tower and pump
house.
Vi l l age admi ni st rat or
Mike Gracz said $3,300 was
donated for that purpose in
1979 and has never been
used.
People have talked about
doing a project there and
its hundreds of thousands
of dollars, so no one has
touched whats there, he
said.
A bit of history
Built in 1899, the pump
house has been sitting vacant
and unused since 1981. The
tower and pump house are on
both the National and State
Register of Historic Places.
The towers location on
Janesville Street is integral
to Oregons history. In 1843,
C. P. Mosely, the villages
first settler, built a log-and-
frame house at the site that
served as a tavern, mill and
inn, according to the late
Florice Paulsons A Walk
Back in History, which
details the villages origins.
Miners would often stop
there on their way to trans-
porting minerals to Janes-
ville and Milwaukee.
In recent times, the HPC
and private individuals have
tossed around ideas of what
to do with the pump house
and water tower.
When the village created
the downtown Tax Incre-
mental Financing District in
2005, it included $210,000
to paint the tower. Inspec-
tions of the tower and pump
house were performed in
2008 and 2009. The first
report estimated it would
cost $250,000 to paint the
tower, but also suggested the
structure might not be strong
enough to support the neces-
sary scaffolding.
The second study was
much more posi t i ve. It
reported that the tower was
structurally sound and would
cost about $160,000 to sand-
blast and repaint.
In 2011, Meyers wrote and
submitted a grant application
with the Dane County Cul-
tural Affairs Commission to
acquire funding to fix up the
pump house, but the grant
was not awarded.
She and Glysch have talk-
ed about using her previous
application as a template and
renewing the effort to find
money to improve first the
pump house and later, pos-
sibly, the tower.
First steps
In the meantime, Glysch
thinks there is enough com-
munity interest to form an
organization and do some
l andscapi ng around t he
pump house.
Well try to get some
plants donated and have peo-
ple plant, he said. Theres
actually a lot of gardeners in
Oregon. I think well plant
something thats low main-
tenance and have people
maintain it and start from
there.
He hopes that once some
basic work is done and
awareness raised about the
pump house, the effort may
snowball. He and Meyers
looked at the building last
week and noted the win-
dows should be replaced,
the building could be painted
and it needs a front door.
That probabl y coul d
evolve, but wed start with
the landscaping and see how
things proceed, he said.
Well start sort of small and
try to get people to know
about it.
Gracz said at its Oct. 7
meeting, the Village Board
will consider allowing the
group to begin working on
the pump house grounds.
Then this group would
work with the HPC and if
they wanted to replace the
windows, for example, they
could then ask the HPC to
make a recommendation to
the board to use some of the
money thats set aside, he
said.
Not afraid to pitch in
Glysch said hes had lots
of experience on city com-
missions in Madison and
knows that sometimes it
just takes somebody to get
the ball rolling, to step up
and take the reins, and good
things will follow.
He recognizes that getting
a group of residents together
can legitimize an effort, a
point that Kay also stressed.
A solo person is a solo
person walking down the
street, where an organization
is a movement, Kay said.
It lends credibility and also
helps from one person burn-
ing out.
Landscaping would be a
truly easy and showy thing
that tells people something is
happening, he added.
But, Kay said, funding
is always a huge issue, and
the water tower is in need of
funding.
Glysch said hes happy
to spearhead the effort and
work to establish an organi-
zation.
Im not new to this, he
said. I like doing this. I feel
responsible to give some-
thing back to the communi-
ty, wherever I live.
Hes all for trying to get
things donated and recruit
volunteers, but there needs
to be a commitment from the
village, too, that its impor-
tant.
He hopes village officials
would have some interest
in seeing the pump house
and water tower fixed up.
Glysch agrees with Kay
that finding a civic purpose
or other use for the pump
house is also important.
In the past, Kay and others
have talked about turning the
building into a visitors cen-
ter or finding some similar
use. As Kay told the Observ-
er in 2011, Nothing saves
a thing better than to have a
use for it.

Village of Brooklyn
Village breaks ground at new business park
Scott GirarD
Five years ago, a Brook-
lyn resident told Village
President Nadine Walsten
he couldnt afford to com-
mute out of the village for
a minimum-wage job with
gas prices as they were.
T h a t c o n v e r s a t i o n
became a driving force
for Walsten in her quest to
bring jobs to Brooklyn, and
the work culminated Friday
in a groundbreaking cer-
emony at the new Brooklyn
Business Park on Hwy. 92.
Im just a bit Wal-
sten said just before the
ceremony, taking a pause to
choose her words, giddy.
The ceremony includ-
ed many of t he peopl e
involved in the process,
including members of the
villages planning commis-
sion and economic plan-
ning committee and the
construction company in
charge of the project. Sen.
John Erpenbach and a rep-
resentative from U.S. Rep.
Mark Pocans office were
also in attendance to offer
their support.
The proj ect began i n
spring 2012, when Wal-
sten learned of a Commu-
nity Development Block
Grant available through
Dane County and the vil-
lage decided to apply for
$261,000.
Aft er t he appl i cat i on
advanced to the second
round last summer, a coun-
ty subcommittee reviewing
the applications found six
things the village needed
before it could officially
approve the grant.
Within five months, the
village completed each of
those steps, which included
expanding its sewer district,
purchasing land, reaching
an annexation agreement
with the Town of Rutland,
acquiring a permit for an
access point to the highway
and creating a tax-incre-
ment financing district.
It was a tremendous
accomplishment to be able
to put together all of these
applications and approv-
als, Walsten said. Im
just very proud of all of
the people and all of the
work they put in to make
this not only a priority but
to approve it.
In early February, they
returned to the County sub-
committee that had origi-
nally given the village the
six tasks to complete, and
received final approval of
the grant.
Walsten said she expects
the parks infrastructure
to be completed by mid-
November, and she and the
villages economic devel-
opment committee have
already begun marketing
to businesses for the lots,
specifically light industry
because of the proximity to
a residential neighborhood.
The interest in building
the park came from seeing
multiple businesses that had
started in the village look to
expand, without any place
in Brooklyn to expand to,
Walsten said. That led those
businesses, along with their
jobs and contributions to
the economy, to go else-
where.
I n addi t i on, Wal st en
want ed Brookl yn t o be
more than an entrenched
commut er communi t y,
which it had become with
85 percent of the citizens
leaving for work Monday
through Friday, according
to a recent survey.
While she admitted the
park will not solve all of
our problems, she said it
had created energy in the
area that will flow into oth-
er projects and expansions.
I think Brooklyn is an
example of how small com-
munities of less than 2,000
population can revitalize
their local economy, she
said. Its not impossible,
even though its a sobering
task.

T
he world is moving
through a long and varied
time of conflict. The
constant threat of war in certain
parts of the world, the suppres-
sion of rights for individuals
or groups, even this countrys
attempt to offer affordable
health care has turned into a
battlefield.
Why, for the love of peanut
butter cant
we all just get
along?
From a
metaphysical
perspective, all
this battling can
be seen as an
external expres-
sion of an inter-
nal conflict.
But if we are
all busy fighting each other, we
wont have the time or energy to
understand the bigger picture.
Perhaps humanity as a whole
is in conflict with the dualities
of its predator nature and its
caring/compassionate nature. If
humanitys caring and compas-
sionate aspects are growing or
becoming more dominant, its
only natural that the predatory
aspect is going to throw a hissy
fit.
Maybe we have perceived life
incorrectly, with the belief that
being a predator is how to suc-
ceed. Perhaps this is why there
is still so much war going on and
why certain groups have to see
themselves as special or favored
by God or superior in some way.
We are allowing this errone-
ous ideology to blindly rule our
lives and our societies.
When we look at the animal
kingdom, we see the predators
survive by preying on the weak.
When a lion hunts, it goes after
the weakest not the strongest.
We see the same behavior in
humans. In fact, our modern
corporations have thrived on this
precept. Our society only values
strong things things that are
predatory in nature. Anything
perceived as weak is worthless,
including women.
Women tend to be more
nurturing and caring. In fact
womens ability to care is their
greatest asset. I believe the
same can be said of all men.
Therefore, I would suggest that
humanitys greatest asset is its
ability to care, not its ability to
be a predator.
Perhaps events that have been
described as a war on women
are reflecting the anger society
has against its own caring nature
because we decided a long time
ago that caring is a weakness.
And it is this rigid judgment
against our own ability to care
that is causing all the problems.
If we dont allow ourselves
(men and women) to be caring
individuals and let our car-
ing nature be a strength that is
valued by society, women will
continue to be the target for
societys rage against its own
nature.
The belief that caring is weak
is exemplified by our modern
business world. I recently over-
heard a conversation where
people were discussing how
the big corporations and banks
were hurting the economy by
just sitting on trillions of dollars
of profits instead of investing
and circulating the wealth. One
could say, Well that just makes
good business sense but many
would argue that when deal-
ing with such a large amount of
resources, this type of hoarding
is predatory in nature.
The ultra rich see themselves
as special because life has
favored them with success and
wealth. After all, they are the
ones that came up with the ideas
and put in all the hard work.
Everyone else should have to do
the same!
Now, what if that perspective
were corrected to something
like, life offered the 1 percent a
chance to serve humanity with a
needed product or service, and
the only reason they are success-
ful is because the 99 percent are
supporting them. If seen in this
light, it would only make sense
that a portion of profits should
go back into the larger mecha-
nism of humanity that is respon-
sible for its success.
Think of the impact it would
make if the 1 percent shared just
a fraction of their huge profits.
The missing link here is that
the 1 percent doesnt respect or
value the 99 percent who are
supporting them.
They arent sharing and car-
ing because they are drinking
the Kool-Aid that says caring is
weak.
We can see the caring nature
of humanity blossom in times of
crisis and disasters. And there
are organizations and groups
that also harness the energy of
caring and group good. But if
we all realized that we are in our
power by caring, not by being
a predator, the world would
change very quickly for the bet-
ter.
So for those of us who are
still holding onto the belief
that caring is a weakness, let it
go. Youll feel a whole lot bet-
ter, and youll help change the
world.

Third annual fest features
alpaca items, education
Victoria Vlisides
Do alpacas love Oregon or does
Oregon love alpacas?
Either way, Alpaca Fest is back
this Sunday in its third year. Organiz-
er Lynne Johnson said people return
not only to see and learn about the
animals, but to also browse alpaca
goods.
The event will be at her alpaca
farm, Sauk Creek Alpacas, 746
Heather Lane. She is a self-pro-
claimed alpaca lover and started it
to spread the word about her beloved
animals.
The goal of the Alpaca Fest
remains the same, Johnson wrote
in an email to the Oregon Observer.
(Its) to introduce these amazing
animals to the public, invite them to
get to know them better, provide an
opportunity to learn more about them
and to purchase items made from
their fleece.
New this year, the fest will feature
a childrens class on how to wet felt.
It also has an overall presentation
called Alpacas 101, which will focus
on the business of breeding alpacas
and processing their fleece.
Visitors will get to pet the animals
and take them for walks, as well as
feed them carrots.
Items sold at the fest include
alpaca-filled bird nesting balls. They
are spun with alpaca fleece that can
be hung outside for birds to take from
to build nests. Other items include
socks, gloves, yarn, roving, teddy
bears, felted hats and shawls and
alpaca photo greeting cards.
Participating vendors are Token
Creek Alpacas of Evansville; Spry
Whimsy Fiber Arts, Stoughton; Five
Oaks Alpacas, Oregon; Beth Skogen
Photography, Madison; and Sauk
Creek Alpacas.
The event runs from 1-5 p.m. For

Drive Nicely
I have been teaching defensive driving classes as a part-time
job for more than a decade and I am amazed at how seemingly
friendly people can become mean and spiteful behind the wheel.
I ask almost every class I teach how it feels to be tailgated
(having someone drive too closely behind you). The answer is
always the same: it feels very aggressive and dangerous and no
one likes to be tailgated. When I follow up that question and ask
them if they sometimes tailgate others, most of the hands go up.
Most people hate to be tailgated but admit tailgating themselves,
a clear violation of the golden rule. Something seems to come
over us while driving whereby we interpret the actions of oth-
ers as aggressive and hostile and then we lash out at them. Our
driving behavior, as well as our state of mind while driving says
something about the kind of people we are, and points to aspects
of our character that we need to work on. Do we give others the
benefit of the doubt when driving and try to be considerate of
them, letting them into our lane, for instance, when we see their
blinker is on and they are trying to get over, or do we think only
of ourselves when driving? We should consider what our style
of driving says about us and the areas of our life we may need to
work on.
Christopher Simon for Metro News Service
The driving is like that of Jehu son of Nimshi, he drives like a
maniac.

SENIOR CARE
Q. My elder will be leaving the hospital soon, are there any tips to help me
ensure all goes well?
A. After a hospital stay, we all appreciate sleeping in or own bed, no more
wakeful nights, no more pokes, prods, beeps and buzzes. Consider these tips
when transitioning from a hospital back to the home. Clear all walkways in the
home and remove trip hazards such as rugs. Rearrange extension cords so they
are not a hazard. Handrails in the bathroom help prevent falls. Help set up proper
administration of medications, with use of an easy to read pill dispenser and a
calendar that depicts each hour. Help out by grocery shopping or preparing easy-
to-heat meals. Maintaining balanced nutrition is critical for elders, especially for
those who have had recent health issues. If you are unable to assist a senior in need, now might be the
time to hire a home health care provider, such as Comfort Keepers. You may also need to help elders
remember their follow up medical appointments (put them on your calendar and call with friendly
reminders). Accompany them to the appointment to ensure these obligations are met and also to keep in
the loop regarding medical care.

VETERINARIAN
Q. How do I know how good my hay is this year?
A. It is important to start thinking now about what our horses will be eating over the long
winter months. It is impossible to know the true quality of hay by its appearance alone. Some
beautiful hay bales are not healthy for certain groups of horses. The only way to know the
percentage of proteins, carbohydrates and other important nutrients is through laboratory
analysis. This knowledge is especially important when feeding horses with metabolic
syndrome, pregnant mares, breeding stallions and youngsters. The veterinarians at Country
View can help analyze and interpret your hay analysis results and implement a correct
feeding program individualized to your horses. An optimized feeding program may lead to
increased monetary savings by decreasing hay wastage and preventing over/under feeding of
grain products and mineral supplements.

Heroes welcome
The Oregon Public Library had its Tribute to Heroes event to honor heroes in the community and
volunteers at the library and around town. The event channeled a super hero theme but also featured

Senior Hayley Christensen didnt
know what to expect after missing two
years of competitive tournaments with
a knee injury, but she just wanted to
come out and have fun Wednesday,
Sept. 25, at the Badger South Confer-
ence meet.
Christensen did more than just have
fun. She sparked the Oregon girls golf
team with an 85 out of the No. 5 spot to
lead Oregon into third place at the meet
(339) and overall in the conference.
I wasnt expecting to do as well as
I did. I was hoping to enjoy it and to
make it through the whole 18 holes,
Christensen said. I had a blast today.
I had the time of my life. Putting up
a good score just adds to the whole
excitement of it.
Senior Morgan McCorkle, who
played with Christensen in 2011 as a
sophomore on the state-qualifying Pan-
thers, said it was very special to be able
to join her best friend on the course.
McCorkle shot a 77 to finish fourth
overall and took No. 4 all-conference
honors, but she and Christensen were
all smiles for more than just golf rea-
sons. This was both golfers last high
school conference tournament, and
they finished strong together.
It was so much fun. I love Hayley,
and I love having her on the team,
Morgan McCorkle said. It is such a
positive experience to have her back.
But the girls have been having fun
all season, playing the top 10 teams in
the state all season and really having no

Three doubles had an

their all in every match they
played.
You could see how their

It was a 6-2, 6-0 loss to top-

Bailey Chorney of Waunakee
that sent Torpy to the third-
place match.
Kenzie has shown herself
to be a leader on-and-off the
court, and her performance at
conference has added to her
outstanding first season with
our team, White said.
Edgewood (42) a team
fielding eight first-year var-
sity players cruised to its
fifth straight Badger South
title, but the Crusaders went
just 2-4 in championship
matches against Waunakee.
The Pa nt he r s , whi c h

a pair of disappointing losses
to Monona Grove, 5-2, and
4-3 against non-conference
Edgerton, finished the season
third overall.
Oregon picked up first-

Juniors Kaci Bausch and
Cassandre Krier were nearly

1 doubles, but fell to fifth-

Overall, the team did a
great job playing and sup-

said. For being such a young
team, with most players new
to the conference setup, they
really carried themselves
well.
Monona Grove finished
second to the Crusaders (20)

Oregon was outscored
26-0 in a decisive second
quarter en route to a 36-20
loss at home Friday against
Madison Edgewood.
The Crusaders led 33-13
after halftime, but were
held to only a fourth quar-
ter field goal by Jack Dra-
goo.
At halftime we chal-
lenged the team to come
out and f i ght back,
Oregon head coach Dan
Kissling said.
The Panthers respond-
ed by moving the ball to
give themselves chances
to score, but once again
Kissling said mistakes
killed them in crucial plac-
es and time.
Again, I dont care
what kind of team you
have, you will never win
with five or six turnovers.
Oregon has now turned
the ball over 13 times in
the last two weeks.
Our defense played on
a short field and that killed
us, Kissling said. But we
played hard in the second
half.
Senior quarterback Jack
Krueger and junior wide
receiver Josh Sromovsky
connected one again for
the games only touch-
down of the second half.
Sromovsky finished with
122 yards on six catches,
while Krueger finished
16-of-23 for 196 yards
with three interceptions.
We are getting healthi-
er, Kissling said. We got
Joey Milz back and he had
a great game at linebacker.
Josh is back and he obvi-
ously helps us, he is still
not 100 percent, which is
scary to me with the num-
ber he put up. BJ (Buck-
ner) played but is also not
at 100 percent, but with
each day we are getting
these guys closer to full
strength.
The guys who took
their places have gotten
a lot of experience which
will help us in the long run,
instead of playing eight or
nine guys both ways we
can start getting guys more
rest in the games.

came away with six personal
best times and three wins
Tuesday on the road in a
108-62 Badger South Confer-

two of their three wins and
had a hand in the other.
The underclassman stand-
out first took the 50-yard

Kugel followed the up by
helping the 200 free relay

victory in a time of 1:51.41.
The girls fought hard
against a fast Edgewood
team, Panthers head coach
Karissa Kruszewski said.
Its hard to compete with the
depth of most of these teams
when we have several girls
out due to sickness or injury,
but I am happy with how
these 15 girls raced and never
gave up.

great game, but we defi-
nitely should have finished
that game off, Morhoff
said. It left a bad taste in
our mouth, and we knew
we had to come out tonight
and get the win.
Morhoff scored with an
assist to junior midfielder
Nick Steidemann in the
39th minute, and he add-
ed his second goal in the
48th minute with an assist
to senior midfielder Sam
Mosiman.
Morhoff also assisted on
senior Jackson Schneiders
goal in the 44th minute.
A lot of stuff we have
been working on is just
starting to click for us,
which is perfect timing,
May said. A couple more
games of the season, and
then we roll right into the
playoffs.
Senior goalie Jere Bauer
finished with one save,
while Edgewood senior
David-Michael DeGuire
had nine.
The win moved the Pan-
thers to 4-0-1 in the Badger
South, in a tie with Fort
Atkinson. It was the 31st-
straight game without a
loss in conference play.
Oregon travels to Madi-
son Memorial at 6:30 p.m.
Thursday, and to Monona
Grove at 7 p.m. Tuesday
to close the conference and
regular season.
Memorial vs. Oregon is
always a good challenge,
May said. They are well-
coached, and they are a tal-
ented team ... It is a good
test for us. Playing well, it
is nice to play a good top
10 Division 1 team to see
where we are at to push
our team level as much as
we can to prep for the play-
offs.

Girls battle through errors to put Mount Horeb away
AnthOny IOzzO
It wasnt a pretty win for the
Oregon volleyball team Tuesday
at Mount Horeb, but the Panthers
battled enough at the end to score
a few scrappy points and pull off
a 3-1 win (25-14, 25-18, 23-25,
25-23).
Oregon committed 20 errors as a
team in the match, and head coach
Kristen Kluck said it was difficult
for the Panthers to get into their
stride.
We had trouble putting together
our offense at first, and then we had
trouble putting our defense togeth-
er, she said.
But t he way Or egon bat t l ed
through the problems was nice to
see, Kluck said.
Still, it also shows that the Pan-
thers have some things to work on
as the season nears its end.
It defi ni t el y shows us some
things we need to work on in prac-
tice, especially with playoffs com-
ing up soon, Kluck said.
Senior outside hitter Maddy Gits
finished with 26 kills, and senior
setter Jamie Wood collected 26
assists. Senior libero Madi Klonsin-
ski had 20 digs, and senior outside
hitter Regan Pauls finished with
four aces.
Junior outside hitter Riley Rose-
meyer, Gits and Wood all had three
blocks.

most.

expectations to go far in the playoffs because
of it. The Panthers joke around and smile on
the course and just go out there to play, and
that non-pressure attitude made it even easier
for Christensen to transition back to the var-
sity squad after such a long absence.
It made it so much easier because the team
has always been so close all year, and to be
able to be a part of this and play with them
was a lot of fun, Christensen said.
Head coach Ben Cowan said Christensen
will be back on the links for regionals and,
hopefully, sectionals, and he always knew
she would succeed regardless of an absence
because of what type of player she is.
Christensen was only the second golfer
Cowan has coached that passed one of his
hardest challenges, and it is because Chris-
tensen practiced for two hours to win it. That
type of hard work was present at the confer-
ence meet, with Oregon only finishing five
strokes behind 12-time champion Madison
Edgewood (334), which was dethroned by
Stoughton this season (326).
She has been grinding hard, and she is a
good player. I knew she would be fine, Cow-
an said. It was just a matter of her believing
in herself and not putting pressure on herself
and definitely not me or her parents putting
pressure on her and she would score well.
Sophomore Jenny Johnsons score was a
92, which is about six or seven strokes above
what she consistently put on the scorecard this
past season, and that could have meant Ore-
gon finishing second at the tournament along
with freshman Taylor McCorkles 85.
But Cowan and the girls are realistic as they
head into the playoffs. The sectional has No.
1 Middleton, No. 2 Verona, No. 5 Stough-
ton and No. 6 Madison Memorial. Cowan
laughed and said it would be as big an upset
as the U.S. defeating the Soviet Union at the
1980 Olympics, but instead of one upset, it
would need three upsets.
But he said that works to Oregons advan-
tage. Instead of the girls worrying about a
score, they will just go out and play.
The moment you think score and expect to
shoot a score, you are not going to shoot that
score. You are just not going to do as soon as
you start thinking about it, Cowan said. For
us, it is just lets get better everyday, and from
where we started last year to where we are
today, it is a pretty big jump. I like to think we
are the most improved team in Wisconsin.
Stoughton senior Becky Klongland finished
second overall with a 73 and finished No. 1
all-conference, while Madison Edgewoods
Tess Hackworthy was first with a 72 and fin-
ished No. 2 all-conference. Edgewoods Car-
oline Lake (79) was fifth overall and took No.

receive feedback and guid-
ance from stakeholders
as the board considers a
potential capital projects
referendum. She said par-
ticipants will review and
discuss a variety of topics,
including district history
with capital project invest-
ments, needs that have been
identified over the last sev-
eral years and hopefully
gaining consensus around
some key vi si on st at e-
ments to guide the district.
We wi l l be act i vel y
seeking ideas from stake-
hol ders about how t he
board should move forward
on the issue of identified
needs, Odorico said.
Di st ri ct admi ni st rat or
Dr. Brian Busler said the
focus groups are meant to
be a staff and community
engagement tool to discuss
four vision statements iden-
tified by the school board:
assuring safe, appropriate
and inspiring learning envi-
ronments for students, staff
and community; providing
and maintain efficient and
sustainable facilities and
physical assets that pro-
mote student learning and
community connections;
assur i ng equi t abl e and
appropriate access to tech-
nology and resources and
continuing investment in
innovative, flexible learn-
ing environments that sup-
port dynamic educational
approaches.
While Busler didnt nec-
essarily tie the focus groups
in with another referen-
dum, he said board mem-
bers have talked about that
as option to meet the needs
identified in the Oregon
Facility Master Plan.
(Were) seeking feed-
back and input from staff
and the community before
a referendum proposal or
idea is formulated, he said.
As an example, do the four
vision statements resonate
with staff and communi-
ty members, and if yes,
what facility needs should
be addressed first and what
projects phased in over
time?
Odorico said the focus
groups are being facilitated
by outside consultants, who
will prepare a report based
on the information gathered
when all the meetings have
been completed, for the
board to review later this
fall.
Were hopeful that lots
of people will come and
share their ideas, she said.
This is just another step in
a very long, ongoing pro-
cess of information-gath-
ering, feedback and idea-
sharing that the district has
been engaged in for the last
several years around the
facilities issue.
Focus: Board looking for input
We will be actively
seeking ideas
from stakeholders
about how the
board should move
forward on the
issue of identified
needs.
