What to do with 1892?

Officials, citizens seek ways to preserve historic high school

Unified Newspaper Group

Community interest in the Stoughton Area School Districts 1892 Central High School is running high.
The school district held two public
listening sessions in November and
organized a tour of the 12,000-squarefoot building this fall. District officials havent proposed what to do
with the historic brick building at 211
N. Forrest St. and say theyre in the
early stages of a community conversation about its future.
Some city officials and community
activists believe the building is structurally sound and needs only cosmetic improvements, while SASD
officials earlier this fall received an
estimate of $4.9 million to bring the
building up to code.
And among those who want the
building renovated and used for a
purpose other than storage, theres
a common sentiment that district
officials would like to get out from
under the building by razing it and
using the space for a parking lot.
They think school officials might
have been looking for an unreasonably high renovation estimate, and
at least one member of the Common
Council and another member of the

citys Landmarks Commission want


to conduct their own feasibility studies.
SASD community relations director Derek Spellman told the Hub the
district is planning to mail out a community survey early in 2016 to find

Courier Hub

out what residents think the district


should do with the building, which is
listed on the State and National Register of Historic Places.
Opinions on what to do with the
stately structure vary widely. The
school board hasnt said much about
it, and school district officials are
reluctant to talk specifics because we
are very, very early in the process,
Spellman said.
Preservationists hope the district is
considering more than leaving the
building as is for a while, or demolishing it the options that Spellman
mentioned in an email to the Hub.
One thing that all parties agree on
is that the school district doesnt have
much money to put toward its historic
high school, so some creativity would
be necessary.

Hopes for preservation


The district hasnt held classes in
the building since 1997, and for 18
years SASD has used it for storage.
In 2001, the school district reluctantly held a referendum on the
building, longtime Landmarks Commission member Alan Hedstrom
recalled. Voters approved $300,000
in new taxes for the building, most of
which was never spent.

Declining enrollment
and looming seven-figure
budget deficits remain
major challenges for the
Stoughton Area School
District, but there is still
plenty of reason for optimism, superintendent Tim
Onsager told the board
during his State of the
School District address
Monday.
In the boards last meeting of the year, Onsager
focused on the districts
accomplishments over
the past decade and what
actions the board and
administration have taken.
Those accomplishments
include graduation rates
and ACT scores above the
state average, high literacy
proficiency rates for students at all levels and the
innovation and community
engagement that has come
out of the high schools
Fab Lab.
The districts primary

challenges, Onsager
acknowledged, include
a projected $1.9 million
deficit in the 2018-19
academic year, declining
enrollment over the past
several years and a change
in student demographics
that has led to a higher
percentage of minority
students falling below the
poverty line.
Many of the challenges
facing the district are also
issues directly relating to
the community, he said, so
input from multiple sources will be key.
It is not just a school
district issue, Onsager
said. We need to play a
part in that. We cannot
be the only person at the
table, and thats something
were continuing to strive
for.
Reactions and discussion following Onsagers
address from the school
board remained mainly
positive and focused on
clarifying different aspects
of his presentation.
The board also heard
a year-end report on
the progress of the districts talented and gifted
(TAG) program. Coordinators Chris Keenan,

SASD: New assessment software will help challenge TAG students


Laura Borsecnik and Chris
Wiemer, representing the
elementary, middle and
high school levels, respectively, noted their continued promotion of personalized learning and providing
students with career-building skills.
Were trying to do outside visits, getting kids
involved with stuff thats a
level above high school, in
the workplace and in college, Wiemer said.

Successes and
challenges
The district is looking to
change some of the practices theyve been using
in order to come up with
the positive results theyve
been seeing when it comes
to rising graduation rates,
average ACT scores and
students literacy proficiency because of how education continues to evolve.
Weve been getting
pretty good results in
what were doing, but that
doesnt mean we can expect
to get good results by doing
the same thing every time,
Onsager said. The world
is changing, education is
changing. Were looking at
how we can best meet the
needs of our students and
the best educational practices.
Graduation rates have
risen SASD from one of
the lowest-ranking districts
in Dane County a decade
ago (85 percent) to one of
the highest in 2014, at 95
percent, Onsager noted.
He added that more high
school students are taking
the ACT and that literacy
rates are up, with over 75
percent of students at every
level meeting their grades
reading expectations,
Onsager said.
The district is changing to continue improving
student learning experience by encouraging the
use of innovation grants,
interactive learning within
each school and out in the
community and new technology in order to better
connect with tech-savvy
students. The number of
innovation grants awarded
to teachers this year has
doubled from last year,
Onsager said.
Were looking at ways
to engage the students,
Onsager said. We know

that the more students are


engaged, the more theyre
active learners and active
participants in their education.
The district has had to
take the positive results
with the less-than-ideal numbers theyll find
themselves dealing with
in future years, much of
which is out of the districts control.
Much of the projected
budget shortfall comes from
declining enrollment. This
year, 206 students will be
graduating in the spring,
and an expected 167 kindergarten students will
enter next fall.
In fact, the deficit would
have been $1.3 million
higher if not for money
saved through insurance
policy changes in the
spring.
The communitys changing demographics contribute to that, Onsager said,
meaning the community
can assist simply by having
more housing stock available.
He estimated that for
every three new doorways built whether thats
a single-family home, a
duplex or an apartment unit
an average of one new
student will be brought to
the district.
He was hopeful one of
the most controversial projects in recent years could
help with that. The WalMart Supercenter-anchored
Kettle Park West development off Hwys. 51 and 138
contains a residential phase,
one thats not often been
discussed during the backand-forth of the past two
years.
Another potential development could be near Fox
Prairie Elementary, along
Milwaukee Street. The area
where two parts of Milwaukee Street are not connected had been ready to be
developed into new housing
before the recession a few
years back, he pointed out.
The demographics predicting the continued
declining enrollment still
remain a sore spot for the
district, as the numbers also
predict the socioeconomic
class of the students as
the district becomes more
diverse.
Its great that the district is becoming more
diverse, Onsager said,
with just 85 percent of its

Weve been getting pretty good results in


what were doing, but that doesnt mean we
can expect to get good results by doing the
same thing every time.
Tim Onsager, SASD superintendent
students white, compared
with 93 percent a decade
ago, but it does pose challenges when many of those
minority students fall into a
lower socioeconomic class.
Were becoming more
economically disadvantaged where our enrollment
is growing, he said. It
means were going to have
to do things differently.

TAG program
While the way TAG students are being challenged
hasnt changed much in the
ways theyre being pushed
to their full potential, there
will be noticeable differences in the way theyre being

assessed in order to become


a part of the advanced
learning program.
The TAG program will
be using a universal
screener known as the
STAR assessment, middle
school TAG coordinator
Laura Borsecnik said, that
longitudinally compares a
students reading and math
skills over time. The new
assessment software will
in turn allow TAG coordinators to more accurately
gage where a students
skill level is at in order to
get them the challenging
curriculum they need from
their teachers.
That creates a certain

Police focus on
OWIs, seat belts

urgency level conversation


for the child, Borsecnik
said.
In the wake of the Every
Student Succeeds Act,
which replaces the No
Child Left Behind Act and
allows local districts more
control over school ratings
and remedial actions, TAG
will also be adapting to any
new changes the federal
legislation might bring.
The TAG program will
continue to be committed
to providing advanced students certain opportunities
in their curriculum in order
for them to struggle and
adapt, Borsecnik said.
If they do already know
this content and theyre
not being challenged in
the new content, then they
dont have those opportunities to struggle and learn
how to persevere, Borsecnik said. Thats always
been the focus of our job,
but weve brought that to
the forefront.

Motorists should expect


more Stoughton police officers to crack down on drunken driving and encourage seat
belt use through Jan. 3.
Booze and Belts invites
departments to increase vigilance for seatbelt violations
and OWIs.
Program coordinator Sgt.
Pat Frisch said that the city
wont put more units on the
streets, but rather change their
focus.
We are striving for voluntary compliance with traffic
laws, a department release
said, But if you make an irresponsible decision, we will
stop you and we wont give
you a warning or a second
chance.
The effort is part of a WisDOT campaign, Zero in
Wisconsin to eliminate preventable traffic deaths.

The second floor of the building (above and below) once held
administrative offices. Classes were last taught there in 1997, and
since then it has been used exclusively for storage.

The basement of the 1892 high school (left) has peeling paint and
some wet areas but appears to be structurally sound. Above, the
front door still shows damage from last winters pipe leak.

City alder Tom Selsor,

districts listening session,
doesnt think district officials
want to demolish the building.

A study the school district commissioned estimated a $4.9 million rehabilitation cost.

I dont feel in any way


that the district has decided
what to do with it, he said.
I think theyre looking for
alternatives, and (superintendent) Tim Onsager feels the
pressure of the budget and
the shortage theyre going to
have. I think he truly would
like to find a good use for the
building I think everyone
would.
I think they dont see
many alternatives, but I think
there are some, he added.
Selsor, a retired developer, has his own plan in
the works, something that
he said would involve a temporary sale, tax credits and
less than a half-million dollars altogether. He suggested
a developer could perform
some basic fixes and open
one side for historic education and the other for additional administrative offices
for the district.
He disagrees with Majewskis idea for the school district to sell the building to
the city at a nominal price,
such as $1, and have the city
use the building for office or
meeting space. He said that
would create a need for more
parking in an area where
theres already not enough.

A number of years ago


they were threatening to
knock it down, Hedstrom
said. We started a campaign, and they held a referendum that passed by a 2-to1 margin. Thats how it was
saved the first time. A lot of
people whod gone to school
there love that building.
He said the Landmarks
Commission hopes to win
a grant to do a feasibility
study and get it fixed up
again.
In November, city alder
Tom Majewski made a
motion to use money from
the citys contingency fund
to commission a feasibility
study of the building. (He
withdrew the motion at the
same meeting after Mayor
Donna Olson said a better time for it would be in
late December when 2015
spending had ended.)
But Majewski, a professional carpenter and home
remodeler, still thinks the
city ought to conduct its
own study of the building.
He called the school districts estimate astronomically high and predicted the
building could be restored
for about half of the school
districts estimate.
I went to their listening
session, and they kept on
talking about the need for
more parking spaces, he
recalled. So it was pretty
apparent to me what they
want to do. A lot of people
think the school district was
really looking for a way to
remove that building.
The District 3 alder noted that earlier this year the
Common Council passed
a policy to no longer allow
community groups to meet
in city-owned buildings. He
supported the resolution, but
said its caused problems
for the citys nonprofits and
civic groups.
He thinks the historic
school, with some renovation, could provide a solution.
My thought was, what if
the city looked at the building for meeting space, or
possibly a new home for a
couple of the departments
that are living in the basement of City Hall parks
and planning? Also, we
could have city council
chambers in the bigger room

there, he suggested. Eventually the Public Safety


building (where the Common Council meets) should
be a Public Safety building.
While they didnt comment on Majewskis idea,
Landmarks Commission
chair Peggy Veregin and
vice-chair Hedstrom also
think the building could be
renovated for about half of
the nearly $5 million estimate the district received by
using historic renovation tax
credits.
Veregin is the State of
Wisconsin coordinator for
the National Register of
Historic Places program and
holds a masters degree in
historic preservation planning. She said the Landmarks Commission toured
the vacant school last summer, and what we saw is
that the building is very
solid.
She described it as having
these nice wide corridors
with big open rooms and
high ceilings. Its a space
that could be very easily
adaptable. It has wood beaded board walls and wood
floors and tin ceiling.
Veregin says the building needs a new use and

Can You Change Your World?

1358 Hwy 51, Stoughton

Elvis tribute

Many of us long for a better world, one with more kindness and
civility, a world where everyone is treated with the dignity and respect
befitting persons made in the image of God. And wouldnt we all like
for the earth to be treated better, not treating it as a big garbage dump
but rather as our precious, holy and beautiful home? Youthful idealism
rushes out into the world intent on changing it for the better, but it is
often met with cynicism or even apathy and resignation over the prospects of making the world a better place. It is indeed hard to change
others, and no one can clean up the whole planet. But we can all start
with ourselves and our own little corner of the world. Maybe we cant
change the world, but we can change ourselves. And in changing ourselves, dont we in effect do our small part for changing the world?
Reflect on what needs changing in your own life before you set out
trying to improve others. Ask yourself whether there is some part of
you that needs to change but which you stubbornly refuse to give up.
Sometimes the greatest victory is the one which we win when we conquer our own vices.

Junior Kaleb Louis gets a takedown against River Valleys Caleb Radtke in the 120-pound finals match Saturday at the Badger State Invitational at the Alliant Energy

Vikings slam top competition


Stoughton wins 43rd
annual Badger State
Invitational
Anthony Iozzo
Assistant sports editor

To put into perspective how long


the Badger State Invitational has been
around for the Stoughton High School
wrestling program, one has to look no
farther than junior Kaleb Louis.

More photos from the 2015 Badger State


invite

ungphotos.smugmug.com
Louis, who won the 120-pound title
at Saturdays 43rd installment of the
annual tournament, remembered a
story from about 30 years ago when
his father wrestled in his first varsity
tournament.
That tournament was the Badger
State invite.
This is by far one of the harder
tournaments we go to, but it has been

around a long time, Louis said. It


felt amazing coming back to this tournament and be able to win it.
Louis joined senior Collin Kraus
(145 pounds), junior Garrett Model
(138 pounds) and junior Brandon
Klein (113 pounds) as champions
Saturday helping the Vikings win
their second straight Badger State title
with 304 points, ahead of Wisconsin Lutheran (238) and River Valley
(225.5).
And with more than 50-ranked
wrestlers, this years tournament
joined previous years as being one of

the bigger gauges to where wrestlers


are at with just over two months left
in the season.
Some weight classes, there might
be tougher kids here than they will see
at the state tournament because there
are kids from out of state and kids
from other divisions. So this is a huge
gauge to see where we are at, and this
time of year is the perfect time to be
tested, find out where our faults are
and make those adjustments for the
end of the year, co-head coach Dan

High School boys basketball
teams night Tuesday at Madison Edgewood.
After winning the past seven contests against the Crusaders, it was Edgewood that
came out firing, jumping out
to a 26-point lead at halftime
as the Vikings ultimately fell
83-56.
Junior Troy Slaby led the
Vikings with 14 points.
Three players reached
double digits for Edgewood
Alex Arians (18), Sam Noyce
(17) and Mandela Deang
(14).
Stoughton drops to 3-3
overall (3-1 Badger South),
while Edgewood moves to

Boys swimming

Depth propels Stoughton past rival Madison Edgewood


Jeremy Jones
Sports editor

Despite only winning three


events Thursday, the Stoughton
boys swimming team was able
to knockoff Madison Edgewood
87-77, thanks to the teams depth.
What won us the meet were our
second, third and fourth-place finishes that outscored their 12-man
team, Vikings head coach Katie
Talmadge said. Our deep bench,
despite having four guys out for
illness, got us the win this evening.
Senior Gabe Ross won the 100yard backstroke in 1 minute, 10.97
seconds, and fellow senior Sam
Hynek claimed the 100 free in
52.42.
Seniors Tristin Heisig, Aaron
Meyer and Hynek and sophomore
Chase capped Stoughtons list of
victories, taking the 200 free relay
in 1:38.57.
Milliam, back from the flu,
came within five hundredths of a

second of breaking the 2-minute


mark in the 200-yard freestyle
(2:00.05). He finished second.
We look forward to what hes
capable of now that hes back
in the pool training again, Talmadge said.
Also back in the pool was Trevor Pope whos been recovering
from ACL surgery since the season started.
Trevors been so determined
and so dedicated in practice, its
going to be so much fun watching all that hard work pay off in
meets, Talmadge said.
Stoughton finished the meet
with 34 best swims, including
Heisig, who PRd in the 50 free,
taking second with a time of
24.17.
Our training is starting to get
hard for the guys, and theyre feeling it in meets, Talmadge said.
Were trying to focus on our bigger goal ... the conference meet.
I predict, with positive attitudes,
healthy guys and a great taper,

well make top two.


In order to get there, though,
Talmadge said the Vikings
need improved practice habits,
improved test sets in practice and
continuously achieving best times
in meets.
Thats what will help grow us
into a Badger Conference contender, she said.
Elijah Krumholtz won swimmer
of the meet for his mental toughness, tackling the 500 for his first
high school meet.
Stoughtons JV team scored 33
points, while Edgewood didnt
have anyone compete on junior
varsity.
The Vikings are now off until
their Jan. 5 when the face conference dual rival and top-ranked
Division 2 powerhouse Monona
Grove. Were hoping to pick up
the pace in practice and really see
what these guys are made of now
that theyre in shape, Talmadge
said. Its going to be a fun season.

Ask The Stoughton

Q. Is it really important for me to keep up my activity level over the winter?


A. As the days get shorter and the temperature drops, you may be tempted to hibernate on the

JODIE POE
PT

couch. But we all risk losing strength, endurance, flexibility, and balance as a result of a more
sedentary stretch of months. In many cases exercise is THE MOST EFFECTIVE treatment
for a variety of chronic conditions including arthritis, heart and lung disease, diabetes, balance
problems, or difficulty walking. Its ok if you arent an outdoor winter enthusiast. There are still
a lot of other alternatives to maintaining your exercise and activity levels while indoors! Try
keeping it social - and help out a friend, neighbor, or family member stay active. Motivation in
numbers! Hit the mall or big box store and walk prior to shopping - carts act as a convenient
walking aid. Contact your local senior center or community education department for all sorts
of resources and classes that are going on. Many local high schools will allow hallway walking
before and after school. Get up and move in your own house - stand while watching the news,
sports, or holiday programs and perform your own made up exercise routine. Turn on the music
and dance. Keep that body moving EACH AND EVERY DAY!!

DENTAL CARE

Q. Why Do I Need X-rays?


A. Dental x-rays are a valuable tool for detecting problems or damage to teeth and gums

not visible during a routine exam. X-rays show the condition of your teeth, their roots,
jaw placement and composition of facial bones. They can help your dentist determine the
presence of small cavities between teeth or below fillings and crowns, periodontal (gum)
disease, infections in the bone, abscesses or cysts, developmental abnormalities, and
even some types of tumors. An x-ray identifies the exact location of impacted teeth and
teeth not yet fully developed. The advantage to you is that x-rays allow dental problems
Thor J. Anderson, DDS to be found and treated at an early stage, saving you time, money and unnecessary pain.
X-rays are not needed at every visit. Your x-ray schedule is based on your individual
needs, including whether you are a new patient, follow-up patient, adult or child. Ask your dentist how often
you should have dental x-rays taken.

Wrestling: Vikings knock off Monona Grove/McFarland and Lodi in duals


Continued from page 7
Spilde said. We have great coaches
on staff that are helping us along,
and it is really going to make a difference in the next month.
So for the Vikings, the Badger
State invite not only turned out well
in terms of individual performances
but also turned out well for the team
as a whole. Besides the four champions, Stoughton also had secondplace (junior Tristan Jenny, 126)
third-place (sophomore Tyler Dow,
152) fourth-place (freshman Hunter
Lewis, 106) fifth-place (sophomore
Aodan Marshall, 220) seventh-place
(freshman Cade Spilde, 132) and
eighth-place (senior Erik Haried,
heavyweight) finishes.
And of those 10 place-matches,
five were against wrestlers from
teams behind the Vikings in the
team standings.
Louis won a 16-6 major decision
over River Valley sophomore Caleb
Radtke a Division 2 honorable
mention in his finals match with
four takedowns and a three-point
near fall in the final two periods.
Model won a 9-1 major decision
over Mineral Point senior Brandon
Forseth ranked fourth in Division
3 in his title bout with four takedowns.
(Louis and Model) are two of
the leaders in the room and work
hard every day. Having those guys
get titles is huge, too, Dan Spilde
said. Not taking anything away
from the other guys that got titles,
but Brandon and Collin have had a
fair amount of success. But having
those other two guys win was pretty
pleasing. Klein pinned Wisconsin
Lutheran senior Tyler Roecker
ranked first in Division 2 in 2 minutes, 59 seconds in his finals match,
while Kraus held off Wisconsin
Lutheran junior Brian Corbins in a
9-2 decision.
Kraus match became a little chippy, with both wrestlers, coaches and
teammates cheering on, but Kraus
said he was able to control his emotions.
It was pretty physical at the
start, so the coaches always tell me
to stay calm because sometimes I
get a little rambunctious and I slam
people, Kraus said. In the third
period when I got a little worked
up, I stayed pretty cool compared
to where I usually am. The coaches
and myself were pretty happy about
that.
Cade Spilde was the other placewinner who wrestled an opponent
from a team chasing Stoughton Saturday. He edged River Valley junior
Nate Jennings, who is ranked No. 6
in Division 2 4-2 to claim seventh.
All the guys, that is all they think
about during the week is just the
matches ahead. It is the best feeling in the world when you know
you have a hard match but are able
to pull through, not just for yourself
but for the team, Louis said.
The other place match wins
included third-place victory for Dow
over Eden Prairies (Minn.) Ben
Matsui by pinfall in 4:27 a fifthplace victory by Marshall in a 7-2
decision over Eden Prairies (Minn.)
Mohammed Elhassan.
Jenny lost his finals match to
Two Rivers senior Paul Bianchi
ranked No. 1 in Division 2 by
pinfall in 1:45, while Lewis lost his
third-place match in a 7-0 decision
to West Salem-Bangor freshman
Dalton Schams. Haried was pinned
by Waunakee sophomore Alan
Olkowski in 2:27 in his seventhplace match.
I really thought it was a balanced
attack, and having that many guys
in the finals was obviously the icebreaker for us. I think that is what
gave some separation between us,
Dan Spilde said.
But having those guys wrestle
for fifth and seventh those points
are very valuable. You cant win
tournaments like this with a handful
of guys. It was a team effort.

Members of the 2015 Stoughton High School wrestling team, volunteers and coaches watch competition Saturday at the 43rd annual Badger State Invitational at the
Alliant Energy Center. Stoughton won the meet with 304 points.

Junior Garrett Model goes for a pin against Wisconsin Lutherans Tristan Wright
in the 138-pound semifinals Saturday. Model won that match with a pin in 5 minutes, 40 seconds, and he went on to win first place with a 9-1 major decision over
Mineral Points Brandon Forseth.

Sophomore Aodan Marshall grapples with Eden Prairies (Minn.) Mohammed


Elhassan in the 220-pound fifth-place match. Marshall won 7-2.

Three out of four for Kraus


Senior Collin Kraus (145 pounds) made his fourth finals
appearance at the Badger State Invitational on Saturday,
winning his third title.
As a freshman, Kraus wanted to win all four years, but he
settled for second in 2012.
There is not a lot of people who have done that here. It is
not like the state tournament, but it still means a lot and shows
all of our teammates that is possible and you can just come
out here and dominate, Kraus said.
Kraus looks to make his fourth state tournament in February.
But even with all that success, it
was easy for coach Spilde to choose
what he thought was the most
impressive finish of the night. That
belonged to Marshall in the fifthplace match.
Marshall and Elhassan were tied
2-2 in the third period, but it was
Marshall who made a big move
not only putting Elhassan on his
back for a takedown but also pinning a shoulder down to score a
three-point near fall with time winding down.
We need a couple of more guys
to step up, and having Cade and Erik
get those seventh-place matches
and then having Aodan in that fifthplace were big, Dan Spilde said.
But just watching him win that
fifth-place match, I think he is starting to turn the corner so that is one I
was really pleased with.
Stoughton travels to the MidStates Dec. 29-30 at the University

of Wisconsin - Whitewater.
That tournament will be another
gauge for the Vikings as they continue their quest for having individual and team-state success later in
February and March.
But the first step was the Badger
State invite, and Stoughton passed
that test Saturday.
Last week, we wrestled
Kaukauna, so that team-wise puts
us in a spot where we can tell at the
end of the season about how we are
going to do. And being here at an
individual tournament, we can focus
on what we need to do individually
to get better to beat Kaukauna in the
finals, Kraus said. So this was
really big and gives us team motivation because we are out here winning this and just dominating all the
other schools. That means a lot.

Memorial progressing despite soggy soil


Veterans park
fundraising tops $300K
Bud Erickson and his colleagues with the Stoughton
Area Veterans Memorial Park
committee have heard the
question quite often recently,
"When are you going to start
moving dirt at the park?"
The answer is when it dries
out.
With more than $300,000
raised already, construction
crews are ready to go, Erickson
wrote in a release last week,
but because of heavy rainfall
in recent weeks, excavating has
been delayed.

While Mother Nature hasnt


been particularly helpful, local
groups, businesses and people have been generous giving to the project, he said. The
Wahlin foundation has made
a pledge of $50,000 to pay for
the archway, all 11 flag poles
have been sold ($2,500 each),
as well as 16 benches ($3,000
apiece), 12 educational pillars
($5,200 each) and 300 pavers.
Rick Kumlien of the committee is working with Stoughton
High School history teacher
Joe Manarski and students on
inscriptions for the educational
pillars.
Erickson added that cash
donations continue to come

How to help
Send contributions to:
Veterans Memorial Park

in, with total sales, donations


and pledges around $302,000,
including a $16,000 donation
from the city, approved this
month by the Common Council.

Still the project is not yet


halfway to organizers fundraising goal of $800,000.
We still have a long way to
go," project chairman Duane
Broughton noted.
As part of the project, Roger
Kleven and Basil Sadler, cochairmen of the name collecting committee, have identified
the names of more than 4,600
Stoughton area veterans dating
back to the Civil War, including 150 killed in action. Those
names will all be included on
the memorial, which is sited
at the corner of County Hwy.
B and Country Club Road in
Pleasant Springs.
