Big Trip around the States


Stoughton family sees it all on 10-week road trip
SCOTT GIRARD

New advisers

By the numbers

Unified Newspaper Group

The family of four from Stoughton


stood near Bourbon Street in New
Orleans, watching a man in a window
dance in his underwear.
When I see a man dancing in his
underwear, its time to go back to
the hotel, Jim McNulty recalled his
10-year-old daughter Mary Kate said
at the time.
One of many memories, that
moment was part of day 55 of the
McNulty familys 10-week road-trip
around the United States on a vacation they dubbed The Big Trip.
The family, which includes Jim
and Kim and their daughters, Mary
Kate and 13-year-old Maggie, had
been planning the trip for more than
six years. Kim and Jim acknowledged
how lucky they were to have employers flexible enough to let them take
that much time off of work.
The luckiness that we have that
we were able to pull it off is pretty
special, Jim told the Hub. A lot of
people just arent in that spot.
While the exposure whether
from underwear-clad dancing men
or walking down the Las Vegas strip
was a valuable experience for the
two school-aged girls in the older
McNultys eyes, the U.S. history and
natural beauty seen were the main

Well, that went by


quickly.
The calendar says
theres still nearly a month
left of summer, but for
children all around the
Stoughton area, its time to
get back to school.
And this year, there will
be a few changes around
the district, including new
leaders at Stoughton High
Schools renowned ag
department and awardwinning Norse Star newspaper, new boys football
and basketball coaches,
more opportunities at
the Fab Lab and some
traffic patterns changes
around River Bluff Middle
School.
Two venerated programs will be under new

Ten weeks crammed in a small van,

The citys food pantry


will be able to offer its 175

from its pork-filled freezers
this month as a result of a
young boys donation.
Jack Conant, 9, of the
Rutland 4-H Club, recently
donated one of the pigs he

Getting their summer read on


Youths rack up
nearly 13,000 hours
during program
SCOTT DE LARUELLE
Unified Newspaper Group

While summer technically has a few weeks left,


school is back in session
next week making it quickly becoming a memory for
area youths.
But for dozens of children and teens who participated in the Stoughton
Public Librarys annual
summer reading program,
it looks to have been some
time well spent.
And quite a bit of time
spent reading. Childrens
librarian Amanda Bosky
said participants in the
program, which wrapped
up Aug. 8, read for 12,987
hours over the course of
the 10-week program. She
said in a side competition
for schools with the highest percentage of students
completing the program,
St. Anns School came
out on top, with more than
a 45 percent completion
rate. She said the school
will receive the librarys
traveling trophy for their
accomplishment when
the school year starts next
month.
Bosky said more than
40 percent of children and
teens who signed up for the
program completed their
summer reading goals (nine
hours for preschoolers, 15

hours for elementary, 18


hours for middle and high
school).
We're so proud of our
readers who combated
"summer slump" by keeping up with their reading
this summer, she said.
Special thanks to our teen
volunteers for staffing the
Hero Headquarters desk
where patrons logged their
hours and received prizes.

Head start
The library is recognizing
15 children who have completed the 1,000 Books
Before Kindergarten program, which is ongoing.
To develop early literacy
skills, library staff challenges parents to read 1,000
books with their children
before kinOnline First
dergarten
starts.
Children
receive a
ConnectStoughton.com
free book
as a prize
when they finish reading
500 books, then another
free book when they finish
all 1,000. Prize books are
provided thanks to several
generous community donations.
The program started on
Jan. 1, 2014. The children
who have completed the
program so far are: Emma
B., Leo Girgen, Parker
Gjermo, Quinlan Harrington, Summer Kapanke, Will Kapanke, Hailey

Stoughton man charged with


homicide following overdose
A 25-year-old Stoughton
man was charged Aug. 19
in the overdose death of a
Madison man last fall.
Thomas J. Field allegedly sold heroin to a man
and woman in Madison,
according to
a criminal
complaint
filed in Dane
County Circuit Court.
The man
31-yearold Damon Field
Dedrick
died the following day after injecting
the drug at his Hoad Street
apartment in Madison.
According to the complaint, the woman contacted
Field via text messages and
phone calls Sept. 19, 2014.
The couple arranged to buy
heroin from Field, who
rode with the couple from
Stoughton to a gas station
in Madison on East Washington Avenue. Field then
left the car, grabbed money
from another vehicle at the
gas station and got into an
SUV where he purchased
the drugs from another person identified as P in the
criminal complaint. Field

then delivered the drugs


to the people in the pickup
truck and to the Madison
couple.
Police were called to
the couples apartment in
Madison the following day.
Dedrick had told the woman he was feeling bad after
taking the drug, according
to the complaint. He lost
consciousness and both
the woman and police performed CPR before paramedics arrived. Dedrick was
taken to the hospital where
he was pronounced dead.
When police contacted
Field, he said he had spoke
with the woman about purchasing heroin and that the
couple came to Stoughton
to pick him up. Field told
police that he no longer had
a way to contact P and
that the number had been
changed after learning the
Madison man had died.
Field is currently in the
Jefferson County Jail,
awaiting an October trial
for a narcotics possession
charge. He faces up to 40
years in prison if convicted
of the first-degree reckless
homicide charge.

The Stoughton Police


Department will have a little extra help patrolling for
potential drunken drivers this
Saturday.
For the fourth time in three
years, the Capital Area OWI
Task Force grant will put
additional officers on the
roads from 8 p.m. to 2 a.m.
as part of a high visibility
enforcement of OWI laws.
Police will post large signs
and keep a close eye on high

patrol nights. The task force,


however, has grown to such
that the 10-14 additional
police units are now generally split between two communities. Just as was the case in
April, Saturdays patrol will
be split with Oregon.
The task force comprises
several municipal police
departments, as well as the
Wisconsin State Patrol, the
Capitol Police and University of Wisconsin.

WOW! Our first year in business has gone by so fast.

We appreciate our customers patience as we opened in phases with the bar,


kitchen, and now the brew house to start brewing our fine beers this
September. We hosted numerous parties in the upper room and thought initially
that it would be just a speakeasy. The truest measure of our success is the
wonderful friendships and memories that our guests and staff have shared this
past year. We thank you for your loyal patronage and vow to keep working our
hardest to make the Viking Brew Pub experience better than ever.

Letter to the editor

Teacher resignations cause for concern


On July 13 at a Stoughton Area
School Board Meeting, Katy Mullen and Jackie Harris commented
on the alternative compensation
plan proposed by the board in late
June. Since then, 13 additional comments have been made, 15 Stoughton educators have resigned, and
zero agendas have been discussed
that include this compensation plan.
The numbers dont line up, especially since the resignations of
Michael Dreyer and Sandra Loftus
as well as comments by Mullen
and Harris touched me personally.
Ms. Loftus was my 7th grade reading teacher, Mr. Dreyer was my 8th
grade information studies teacher,
Ms. Mullen was my Womens
Issues and American Government
teacher and LINK Crew advisor,
and Ms. Harris was my Algebra
teacher.
Ms. Loftus, I still have a clay bow
I made for a presentation (on Genghis Khan) for your class thank
you for your years of teaching. Mr.
Dreyer, I read two books in your
class that highlighted my middle
school reading Flipped and I
am the Messenger. Thank you,
too, for your years of teaching. Ms.
Harris, yes, I failed to complete both
semesters of AP Calculus, but your
algebra class at least got me on the
path to advanced math. Ms. Mullen,
Im sorry that I left class once without asking you (class wasnt bad, I

just forgot to ask).


My teachers deserve at least one
good discussion in a school board
meeting that includes an alternative
to rewards based on district-wide
impact and colored tiers. In addition, our educators already have
district-wide impact. I hope my
editorial demonstrates that, and that
these teachers and all of our teachers are worth fighting for. If we
dont stop driving away our veteran
teachers, then our school district
will be a grim place to teach, study
and live. Will the school board realize their mistake before its too late?
I hope not. I would send my future
children to the Stoughton schools
I went to. Thats district-wide
impact. But if the school board
doesnt trash the current compensation plan, my children will certainly
be students somewhere else 10, 15
years from now.
I dont like to hear that my former
teachers are outraged, resigning, or
resigned. Although I am in disbelief over the compensation plan and
subsequent resignations, I hope that
Stoughton educators and students
still have enough pride to demand
that our loyal educators be rewarded not reprimanded for their
commitment to Stoughton schools.

position.
Her agricultural education
background started in wildlife,
different from the stereotypical
farming background many agriculture teachers are assumed to
have.
The district wanted something
different, and I think thats why
they hired me, she said.
The Norse Star newspaper will
also be seeing a new face at the
front of the classroom.
Laura Streyle, a La Crosse
native who graduated from Lawrence University, is an English teacher who was drawn to
Stoughton because of the cuttingedge style of the newspaper.
Taking advice from mentors,
speakers at journalism conferences shes attended this summer
and former advisers, she plans to
learn from students and focus on
their vision for the award-winning paper, rather than making
any changes of her own.
Both Ross and Streyle have
stressed how important the community is to their students successes, and said they will both
work to strengthen the relations
between community members
and their respective programs.

Fab Lab
This summers construction
project in the Fab Lab is complete,
with three large nature light windows, a new ceiling, and high-efficiency LED lighting throughout
the lab space.
Fab Lab Stoughton adviser
Mike Connor said the changes will
make it a more inviting space for
everyone to enjoy, and he said it
will be open extra hours for the
public.
Its been call a Tinkerers
Workshop, and a MakerSpace on
steroids, he said. But we just
call it Fab Lab fun.
Connor was pleased to announce
the lab was selected as a finalist
for innovations in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering,
& Math) education in the Wisconsin Innovation Awards ceremony,
held at the Discovery Center in
Milwaukee Aug. 18.
It was one of three finalist chosen from over 300 entries this
year.
It was an honor to be a finalist in this process that celebrates
innovation in great state of Wisconsin, he said.
The lab serves the districts high
schoolers, offering Fab Lab 1, 2
and 3 STEM courses. Last year,
the lab added adult/child workshops on Wednesday evenings
from 6-8 p.m., and this fall, it
will add adult classes on Saturday

New SHS coaches


Two of the higher-profile sports
in Stoughton (after wrestling, of
course) have new coaches.
Dan Prahl has taken over as the
new football coach, leading a program that has made great strides in
recent years, and Luke Wainwright
will lead the Vikings boys basketball team after former coach Matt
Hockett left to join the University
of Minnesota-Duluths basketball
program as a lead assistant.
Prahl, the seventh-grade math
teacher at River Bluff Middle
School, was an assistant for the
Vikings last year as they made
their first playoffs since 1998. The
Oregon natives father served as
the Panthers head coach for nearly 30 years, and his mother taught
at Kegonsa Elementary School for
30 years.
He also has great experience
with winning. The UW-Whitewater graduate coached for four
years under Lance Leipold, during which time the Warhawks won
three NCAA Division III National
Championships.
SHS athletic director Mel Dow
said through the hiring process,
Prahl was the candidate who
demonstrated the greatest desire
to be the next Stoughton coach.
Wainwright spent four years as
director of operations of the UWMadison mens basketball team
under legendary UW basketball
coach Bo Ryan before leaving to
pursue a coaching career of his

River Bluff traffic changes


Construction in the area could
present some traffic problems for
parents dropping off River Bluff
Middle School students.
According to a letter sent Monday to parents, construction on
East Washington and Fifth streets
will change traffic patterns near
the school until further notice.
To enter the school, vehicles
will enter by heading north on
Fourth Street, which will be oneway between Washington and
North streets. Parents will take
Fourth Street to North Street, turn
right (east) on North and then left
(north) and follow the drive to
drop off their children.
To exit, vehicles will follow
the drive back to North Street and
then turn right (west). Because
Fourth Street is one-way, vehicles
will not be able to exit through
that street, but should head west
on North Street and use Division
Street to go north or south.
Also:
Fifth Streeet between Main
and North streets will be closed
during construction.
The West entrance to the parking lot nearest the 1892 building (former high school) will be
closed.
Forrest Street will be for buses
only.

Trip: McNulty family stays true to wedding vows by creating a legacy of adventure
On the web

other more, but all four of


them said they learned plenty
of lessons from the trip that
they can continue to use in
everyday life lessons they
wouldnt have recognized if
not for travelling.
They began heading east
on June 12, and after just
more than one week that way
they headed back through
Wisconsin out west, where
most of their trip took place.
Through 13 national parks,
15,528 miles of driving and
a blog updated daily on the
trip, the family became well
known by the more than
1,300 people who Liked
their Facebook page.
(At school registration)
this lady comes up to me
and she goes, Oh, welcome
back, I read (about) you
every day, you dont even
know me, Kim said. A
little bit of the celebrity.

Read the McNulty familys blog and


see more photos from their trip:

asking is a lesson that goes


back to how the trip became
a reality, as she and Jim
asked their bosses for a way
to make it happen.
Many more people think
they arent in that spot, Kim
said. If they just open their
minds to the possibility that
you are able to make your
dreams come true if you
ask.
Every great thing, whether its this trip in general or
really great things that happened along the way, started
with asking a question.

Planning ahead

Photo submitted

Five years ago, Jim walked


into his boss office at Oak
Bank, where he is the senior
vice president for business
banking, and told him his
family wanted to take a Big
Trip.
Saying something out
loud in front of people, all
of a sudden makes it, This
is a thing, this is real, Jim
said. It took a little thinking, it took a little discussing,
but with that much planning,
we ended up equating it to
kind of when someone has a
maternity leave.
The planning process
also taught the family a lesson about saying no to some
things to fully enjoy what
you are able to do. For the
last year, the family had
been putting pins on a map
of places they wanted to see.
When they realized it was
more than 100, they had to
cut it down, especially with
suggestions coming from
friends and family who had
visited many of the places
they were headed.
(We) had to talk a lot
about whats good and
whats great, Kim said.
Some things just didnt
make the cut. Even in 10
weeks, there just wasnt
time.
They also realized the
value of planning with hotels
after initially hoping to just
wing it and book hotels as
they went. In March, Kim
got nervous about that plan,
and began to call ahead.
After hearing hotel clerks
repeating no rooms to
other guests as the family checked in nearly everywhere they went, they were

wasnt.
Jim said the time spent,
whether it was discussing
what they all saw on the
Vegas strip or on Bourbon
Street or climbing through
the Grand Canyon, it opened
the girls up to many life
experiences.
Theyre more worldly,
Jim said. We didnt go to
the mean streets of too many
places, but we definitely got
exposed to a lot of stuff. I
think its really valuable for
the girls.
It also provided him confidence in their parent-child
relationship for the longterm.

A summer spent on the


road is a summer away from
friends and other normal
commitments, which can
be tough for a teenager and
10-year-old.
It feels really good (to be
home) because I missed all
my friends, Maggie said.
My friends were also wanting me to be home.
Jim and Kim appreciated
that their daughters were
willing to forgo a summer
with friends for some quality
family time, and recognized
that with Maggie entering
high school one year from
now, this was probably the
last summer the trip could
have worked.
For Jim and I, (the girls)
are our life, Kim said. So
we got to take our whole
life with us. The girls had
to leave a lot of their life
behind.
Now, both of the kids hope
the Big Trip tradition can
continue in their family.
When a guy proposes
to me, Ill be like, Ill say
yes if we get to go on a Big
Trip, Mary Kate said.
Itd be super cool in like
200 years if our family is still
doing this, Maggie said.
For Jim and Kim, who 15
years ago included a goal
to create a legacy in their
wedding vows to each other,
that was all they could have
asked for.
What more could a parent
want to hear? Kim said.

The best experiences on


the trip, whether it was a
great meal or an off-the-beaten-path experience, often
came from one simple decision: ask a local.
I kind of called it Big
Trip attitude, Kim said.
Im not the first person to
approach a stranger for help.
For some of the really magical things to happen that happened to us it cant hurt to
ask. I need to have that more
in my everyday life now.
After awhile, it became
routine to ask a cool person at the hotel for a good
place to eat nearby, Jim said.
Other times, asking a question led to an experience they
never imagined, like posing
with a jockey in the winners
circle at the Ellis Park horse
racing track in Kentucky on
the final day of the trip.
It also came in handy
when the girls, both dancers,
needed to create an audition
tape for a new dance group.
The problem was the family was on its way to Austin,
Texas, not their Stoughton
dance studio.
After a quick internet
search for a local studio, Kim
said she called and asked
if they had any studio time
available. The studio found
an hour for them, something
Kim greatly appreciated.
There was nothing in it
for that studio owner to come
and let us use their space,
Kim said. It is universal.
People are kind.
She added that simply

Are Your Goals SMART?


Having meaningful goals is an important
part of a happy, fulfilled life. We should always
have some worthy goals to work towards,
both in the short-run and the long-run. If
your goals are worth having, it helps to think
about them systematically, and there is a
nice acronym from the discipline of project
management that can help in that regard. The
acronym SMART stands for Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic (or Relevant), and
Timely. Specific goals are better than vague
ones; I want to give $10.00 to charity each
week is better than just saying you want to
be more giving. Goals that can be measured
are easier to keep track of; better to keep a
log of those weekly charitable contributions
than to just guess at how much youve given.
The goal should be both achievable and realistic. Dont try to give $100.00 out of every
paycheck to charity if you earn $300.00 a
week. And finally, your goals should be timely.
That is, you should put a time frame on your
goals and it can also help if your short- and
medium-term goals support your long-term
goals. For instance, if one of your long-term
goals is to leave a large sum of money to a
favorite charity, then it will help to have shortterm saving goals which support that. God
wants us to be happy, and one of the ways in
which we can fulfill Gods plan is to make our
goals align with His.

blown-up by Reedsburg

Stoughton senior quarterback


Jake Kissling and Jeremiah Jimenez
connected for a 7-yard touchdown
pass in the fourth quarter Friday, but
it was too little too late.
The host Vikings struggled to
stop a potent Reedsburg rushing
attack, which rang up 338 rushing
yards on 62 attempts en route to a
21-7 Badger Conference crossover
loss at Collins Field.
Reedsburg runs a unique triple
option offense and they execute it
very well, head coach Dan Prahl
said. Theyre a big team and they
get after you.
Reedsburg, which advanced to
within a game of the WIAA Division 3 state tournament last season,
built a 21-0 lead through three quarters thanks to a pair of Cal Mazur
touchdown runs of 4 and 63 yards.
Mazur shredded the Vikings
defense for more than 10 yards per
carry, rushing for 113 yards on 11
carries.
The one thing I will say is, other
than when they broke free for that
63-yard touchdown run, we made
them earn it, Prahl said.
Stoughtons defense struggled to
get off the field, however, as Reedsburg rattled off 19 plays on one
scoring drive. And Beavers senior
quarterback Jack Yager was effective when he had to throw, completing 3-of-6 passes on the evening,
including a 2-yard touchdown pass
to Chris Jepson in the second quarter.

Senior tight end Jeremiah Jimenez runs in a fourth quarter reception for a Stoughton touchdown Friday night at home in a 21-7
loss against Reedsburg.

Jepson added 94 yards on 21 carries for Reedsburg.


Kissling completed 10-of-22
attempts for just 86 yards for the
Vikings, finding Josh Hitchcock for
a game-high 38 yards on four grabs.
Stoughton (0-1) looks to even its

record at 7 p.m. Friday when it hosts


last years co-Badger North champion Mount Horeb/Barneveld (0-1),
which is coming off a 27-20 loss
against Monona Grove.
We met with our seniors Monday to talk about their goals this

season and they want to win conference, Prahl said. I think MG is


still the team to beat until someone
knocks them off, but can we win
conference? Absolutely.
We have all the pieces, we just
have to put them all together.

Viking volleyball capable of a lot this season


ANTHONY IOZZO
Assistant sports editor

While still young, the Stoughton High School varsity volleyball team looks to improve from
last season.
The Vikings finished 10-22
overall in 2014, but with seven
returning lettermen, including
three starters, head coach Kelly
Sorensen said she expects the
girls be contenders in 2015.
Many players have improved
a lot in the off season, Sorensen
said. They are playing very well

together as a team, working hard


and are capable of a lot. I am
excited to see how we do.
Gone from last season is Lindsey Bach, Olivia Dorscheid,
Annie Fergus, Jordyn Weum,
Ashley Olson and Hannah Posick.
Fergus (175 kills, 32 aces, 221
digs) Bach (510 assists, 48 aces),
Posick (191 digs, 23 aces) and
Weum played over 70 sets each,
while Dorscheid (137 digs)
played in over 40 sets. Fergus and
Dorscheid were honorable mention all-conference.
Junior Rachel Hedman will

make the move to outside hitter


with Fergus gone, playing middle
blocker last season. Hedman was
third on the team in 2014 with
118 kills.
Hedman will be our big
hitter, Sorensen said. She
improved a lot, and will be playing outside this year. She will get
many more attempts hitting on
the outside.
At middle blocker, senior Hannah Hobson, a second-team allconference selection, returns to
start for the third season. Hobson
was first on the team with 181

kills and 46 blocks last season.


Sorensen said Hobson is a leader on the court and gets the job
done.
Junior Maggie Wirag is also
back. She was second on the team
with 158 assists and 39 aces. She
also added 85 kills and 135 digs.
Sophomore Tessa Berry also
returns. She had 127 digs and 17
aces last season.
Berry is a great defender. She
reads well, is aggressive and
makes every effort for the ball,

Top-seeded Stoughton held


a two-run lead for two innings
before one bad inning cost the
Merchants in a 5-2 loss in the
Southeast Section finals.
With a second trip to the
Final Four in the last three
seasons on the line, Stoughton saw its lead quickly disintegrate thanks to walks, an
error and a pair of singles in
the Fort Atkinson top of the
seventh.
The visiting Generals
watched lead off hitter Tyler
Sexton draw a full-count walk
before Stoughton starter Erick
Sperloen, who struggled with
his control, hitting three batters, plunked Andrew Cashin.
Nick Raether followed with
a no-out sac bunt, which the
Merchants threw away at first
base to plate Fort Atkinsons
first run. The Generals kept
the pressure on from there as
Josh Crandall and Dan Dean
collected back-to-back RBI
singles to put Fort ahead.
James Bleecker added the
final run of the inning on a
sacrifice fly before reliever
Rory Menzer worked out of
the inning getting a pop out
and strike out.
We only had one bad
inning there and Fort took
advantage, Stoughton manager Dale Seffens said.
Theyre a good team. You
cant do that at this point in
the season.
Despite digging itself into
a hole, Stoughton looked
primed to at least tie the game
in the home half of the eighth,
loading the bases with one
out.
T.J. DiPrizio doubled, Ryan
Nyhagen singled and Brad
Knickmeier walked to load
the bases for the Merchants.
Dean, who came on in
relief of Frank Raff following
Nyhagens single, struck out
Justin Moore and Menzer to
end the threat.
The Merchants threatened
again with two runners on and
two outs in the ninth, leaving
13 runners on base in the loss.

Girls swimming

Former SHS swimming standout looks to grow Vikings into top-tier program
JEREMY JONES
Sports editor

Former Stoughton girls swimming


standout Katie Liebmann spent last
season as a Vikings assistant. She
takes over this season with the longterm personal goal of nurturing the
Vikings potential.
Having been a product of Stoughton swimming myself (class of
2001), I have a passion to grow this
program into something that produces great Stoughton swimmers, she
said. Weve got a lot of potential
for great swimming in Stoughton.

Weve got the best pool in the area


and a handful of supporters that have
a lot of knowledge and love to give
to swimming in our community.
A young team with only 15 of
the 20 girls being upperclassmen,
this seasons success starts with five
upperclassmen who need to provide
strong leadership following the loss
of Allie Niemeyer (now swimming
at Ohio Wesleyan University.
Senior captains Sophie Pitney and
Shayee Kooima will guide the team
throughout the season.
They are already proving to be
great motivators and role models in

practice, Liebmann said. Sophie


is high energy with big goals and
she has a lot of passion for the team.
Shaylee made huge improvements
last year, spending time in the offseason training, that will make a big
difference this year.
Sophomore Maddie Kooima
returns as the teams top point earner
as well as the teams top finisher at
the Badger South Conference meet,
taking fifth in the 200-yard individual medley last year.
Kooima spent a lot of time training in the offseason and Liebmann
thinks it could pay off big.

Look for Maddie to compete at


state before she graduates, Liebmann said.
Junior Ashley Foss is a sprinter
with a lot of potential, while Liebmann said junior manager Kaleah
Holzmann is the key to keeping this
program running smoothly this year
without an assistant coach.
Despite being a small team, the
Vikings have three sets of sisters
(Shaylee and twins Maddie and
Abbie Kooima; Ashley and Haley
Foss; and Karley Toso and Hailey Brown), which helps to keep
the team close, and furthers strong

communication.
Beyond that, Liebmann is hopeful
that several dedicated underclassmen
will rake in some points because of
their year round dedication.
Were already showing signs of
being a tough, physical and mental
team this year. The girls are bonding
and having a lot of fun, she said.
Freshmen newcomers Audrey
Killian, Sophia Thompson and Haley Foss and sophomore Abbie Kooima could also contribute right away.
Audrey is fresh, moldable, and

BUILDING PROFESSIONALS

Stanley Slinde, is Friday November 13th and we intend to celebrate. Our family shop has been on the Main Street of
Stoughton all that time. We have been at our present location -- 200 West Main Street since 1957.
Stuart really likes the new motorized window treatments. Customers will be delighted to learn that they can conveniently
control individual or multiple shades from anywhere in the home with a simple touch of a button. Shades that are out-ofreach or simply too large to operate manually offer prime opportunities to add motorization. It really enhances the view to
the outside and creates a clean, uncluttered look.
Our other new discovery this week is a new line of beautiful luxury vinyl tile. If you are interested in buying this product
but felt it was not in your budget--stop in and check this out. The colors are gorgeous and the price is right. We give free
estimates, as always.

A. There are a lot of different types, styles, colors of countertops these days. The least costly
and very durable for years have been plastic laminate (Formica). Today there are so many
different colors and finishes to choose from and some even look like granite. The next step up
is the solid surface tops. They are very durable but can be scratched easier then plastic laminate,
but the scratches can be buffed out since it is solid. The most popular that we see are granite tops.
Nature has provides us with so many colors and patterns that the options are almost endless.
We are also seeing a lot of quartz tops and they are the most durable, and they also have many
options for colors and patterns. Some trending options include concrete, glass, metal, and wood.

RESPITE CARE

Q. What Should I Expect From Home Care Providers?


A. For families who live away from their elder loved one, home care providers, like Comfort

Keepers offer regular updates to families about the elders well-being and with that, assurance
that the elder is receiving the best possible care.
In addition to peace of mind, home care providers can deliver a wide range of services, working
with elders and their families to create care plans that meet their specific needs. These individual
care plans allow elders the opportunity to age in place, safely and securely. In-home care services
provide support to help preserve elders' dignity and independence as well.
Homecare offers housekeeping and personal care services. Housekeeping services include light
Stephen Rudolph
FACHE, CSA
housekeeping, errand services, grocery shopping, respite grooming and dressing, incidental
transportation, laundry service, meal preparation and more. Personal care services include bathing, mobility assistance,
transferring and positioning, toileting and incontinence, oral hygiene and feeding and special diet assistance. There may
not be an immediate need for all of these services now, but the great thing about home care is that it offers plenty of options
that can be added or modified as needs change all in the comfort of home.
Call Comfort Keepers at 442-1898 for a free home visit and evaluation.

DENTAL CARE

Q. What should I expect during a dental checkup?


A. Regular dental checkups are an extremely important part of preventative health care. During a typical

checkup, the dentist will perform a thorough examination of your mouth and the hygienist will clean your
teeth. They will check for cavities, gum disease, jaw function and other dental issues; perform an oral
cancer screening; and do a blood pressure check. A dental exam may also include dental x-rays or other
diagnostic procedures.
During a dental checkup the dentist or hygienist will likely discuss your oral hygiene habits and may
demonstrate proper brushing and flossing techniques. Other discussion topics may include lifestyle or diet
Thor J. Anderson, DDS factors that affect oral health, possible cosmetic improvements to your teeth, and tips to properly care for
your teeth and gums at home. During a checkup, your dentist will also ask about any health problems you
have or medications you are taking and discuss how they affect your oral health.
The main goal of a dental checkup is to help protect your oral health and general well-being. Regular dental exams give your dentist a
chance to provide tips in caring for your teeth and to detect problems early - when they are most treatable.

Q. How can I ensure my childs backpack is fit properly and safe for use?
A. With the first day of school just around the corner, ensuring your child has a backpack that is fit properly

EMILY R. DEVINE
dpt

can help kick off the new school year on the right foot. When doing back to school shopping, you should look
for a backpack that can either be pulled on wheels or a backpack that has two shoulder straps so the weight
of the backpack is more evenly distributed. Pay attention to how the backpack is positioned on the back as
it should rest in the middle of the back over the strong mid-back muscles. The shoulder straps should be
adjustable to allow your child to put on and take off the backpack easily plus allow their arms to move freely.
Their backpack should not extend below the low back. You may have to help lighten the load as the backpack
should not weigh more than 10-15% of your childs bodyweight. Help them learn to organize their backpack
