Whiskey Jack’s Deer Camp Musical Comedy October 6 in
Townsend
The Holt & Balcom Logging Camp Museum proudly pre-
sents Whiskey Jack’s Deer Camp, a knee-slapping musical
comedy to be staged Saturday, October 6, 2018, at the
Townsend Town Hall. There’s a mat-
inee at 2:00 and evening performance at
7:00. Admission is $8; doors open one

Written and directed by Kathleen
Marsh, Whiskey Jack’s Deer Camp is
set in November 1918. Cate (Kathleen
Marsh) and Jack (Jon Marsh), former
proprietors of the Red Light Saloon,
have moved to a cabin in the woods
where Jack is hosting friends at his annual deer hunting
camp. The United States is at war with Germany, and mil-
lions of American soldiers are serving overseas, including
Cate and Jack’s nephew Chance (Cameron O’Connor),
who is missing deer camp for the first time since he was
ten.
Joining Jack’s hunting party are his brother Deacon (Al
Benson) and saloon buddies Spike (Don Franzen), Irish
(Pat Lowery), Leander (Lee Gerndt), and Ivo (Scott Wych-
erley), the village butcher who innocently brings
“professional” dancing girls Marcie (Marcia Wahoske) and
Merry (Mary Benson) onto the scene.
The show features loads of laughs and fun songs performed
by this talented cast. Sure to be unforget-
table hits are Pat Lowery’s Second
Week of Deer Camp; Lee Gerndt’s Day-
O, (Eight point, ten point, twelve point
buck…daylight come and we’re gonna
go hunt!); Al Benson’s Redneck, Wool
Socks, and Whiskey Jack’s Beer; Don
Franzen’s I’m Gonna Miss Her; and
Scott Wycherley’s I Like Beer, plus lots
more. Making her stage debut in Town-
send is Marcia Wahoske whose rendition of Hey, Big
Spender is sure to rock the house.
So mark your calendar. You don’t want to miss this show!
Special Note: Not suitable for children. Pre-arranged seat-
ing is available for those with disabilities (Call 715-276-
6515).

Finding the Right Order?

As the school year begins, I can’t help but remember how I felt for 35 consecutive first-weeks of school. My emotions were a mix-
ture of mild melancholy, wishing the fun and freedom of summer vacation would never end. But in equal measure was the excite-
ment of meeting my new “kids” and the comfort of following a school year schedule that seemed more productive and meaningful in
the grand scheme of things.
Truth is I have always liked order. One of my favorite sayings is that “Failing to Plan Is Planning to
Fail.” And if I am anything at all, it’s a planner. That’s why for all those years I spent teaching, by
Opening Day I had already put in a ton of unpaid hours getting my classroom ready.
My favorite part of the back-to-school routine was fitting new novels into my bookcases stuffed
with age-appropriate paperbacks purchased at Conkey’s Book Store in Appleton. They were all
gently used because I had spent my summer reading them. While my friends were enjoying steamy
romance novels at the beach, I was home immersed in juvenile fiction chosen in search of the per-
fect classroom read-aloud or to be used as a last ditch effort to persuade a reluctant reader to at least
give it a try. I was sad when I heard Conkey’s was closing. Their service was amazing, and I always
left the store with novels my students loved.
I used the honor system for accessing my private collection of books bought with my own money. I
certainly didn’t like the kids filching my stuff so I would give the standard “return what you bor-
row” admonition. But I never got that upset when a book went MIA. If a kid borrowed a book, I
assumed he/she had the best intentions of returning it. But occasionally, someone liked one so much
he/she just couldn’t part with it. What the heck. If they were going to take something, better it be a
book than my wallet or car keys.
If loading up my bookcase with the latest fab fiction was a job I enjoyed, my least favorite task was bulletin boards. In fact, I was
downright green with envy of other teachers’ bulletin boards. I would tell myself that mine were lousy because I am not at all artsy-
craftsy. Too bad, I had to put up something on the bare walls. I would hang huge posters of my favorite authors, put a pretty border
around an empty-for-now display labeled “Student Work”, and tack up cutsie cookie cutter stuff I bought at the Learning Shop. Then
I happened upon the perfect solution: invite the students to do it. Now why didn’t I think of that sooner? The artsy-craftsy kids loved
doing it; I loved their displays; and I really loved them for doing it for me.
The last job I did each year was arranging the desks. I always made sure mine was situated where I could see every corner of the
classroom in the rare moments I actually sat there. But it couldn’t be too obvious because the students were the center of attention,
not me. That part was relatively easy; the challenge was creating a seating pattern that established a business-like setting and fed my
need for order.
Over the years I worked with great teachers who flourished in organized chaos. I did not, and neither did a lot of my students. Sure,
some kids thrive with a hubbub of activity going on all around them, but most just cannot learn amid noise and constant commotion.
Since I was the one setting the stage, this is a place where I learned to put my needs first. If I was going to turn out confident young
adults in charge of their own learning, I needed a classroom where I felt confident and in charge. For me, that meant beginning the
year with traditional straight rows and assigned seating.
As we settled into orderly classroom procedures, I varied the arrangement based on the lesson, always changing seats at the start of a
new quarter. I was delighted when I found this system not only worked for me but served as a “Mixer.” Students became friends with
other kids they would never have sat by on their own.
I'm retired so I’m not going back to school this fall or ever again. But I want to send a message to educators who are. I envy you.
You don’t make A difference. You make THE difference. Our success as a people begins and ends with you. Please persevere. We
need you now more than ever.

Several people of all ages were there watching

A Word or Two From Dr. Adam
Study: Use of Chiropractic in the VA Rising Steeply
Arlington, Va. --The use of chiropractic services in the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) health care system has seen a steep rise
over more than a decade, according to research published in the Journal of Manipulative and Physiological Therapeutics(JMPT), the
official scientific journal of the American Chiropractic Association (ACA).
The study’s authors, who analyzed VA national data collected between 2004 and 2015, discovered an increase of more than 800 per-
cent in the number of patients receiving the services of doctors of chiropractic. While authors attribute the increase to a natural
growth of the chiropractic service, which was only implemented on-site at the VA in 2004, they also suggest it may be attributed to
the successful performance of VA chiropractors and the perceived value of their care, among other factors.
“The fact that these services have expanded consistently and substantially beyond the minimum mandated level may suggest that
some VA decision-makers perceive value in providing chiropractic care,” the study notes.
Key findings from the study show that:
the annual number of patients seen in VA chiropractic clinics increased by 821 percent;
the annual number of chiropractic visits increased by 694 percent;
the total number of chiropractic clinics grew from 27 to 65 (9 percent annually);
the number of chiropractor employees rose from 13 to 86 (21 percent annually); and
female and younger patients received chiropractic care at VA clinics at a greater rate than the national VA outpatient popula-
tion. “This demographic tendency is consistent
with the cohort of veterans from the recent con-
flicts in Iraq and Afghanistan, which is known
to have a high prevalence of musculoskeletal
conditions,” the study authors note.
"ACA commends the VA for its important work to expand
access to chiropractic services to the nation’s veterans,” said
ACA President David Herd, DC. “It’s vitally important that
all of our veterans have access to non-drug approaches to
pain management such as those offered by chiropractic phy-
sicians, particularly in light of the opioid epidemic that is
gripping our country. Many veterans returning from over-
seas suffer from musculoskeletal ailments, which respond
well to chiropractic’s patient-centered and drug-free ap-
proach.”
Doctors of chiropractic – often referred to as chiropractors
or chiropractic physicians – practice a hands-on, drug-free
approach to health care that includes patient examination,
diagnosis and treatment primarily of disorders of the muscu-
loskeletal system and the nervous system, and the effects of
these disorders on general health. Chiropractors have broad
diagnostic skills and are also trained to recommend thera-
peutic and rehabilitative exercises, as well as to provide nu-
tritional, dietary and lifestyle counseling.
