vary, Wisconsin has been an actor
and writer since 1979. He has won

KOHLER VILLAGER 3
Each year Jill ODonnell, Retail
& Commercial Manager for The
Shops at Woodlake, informs
Kohler Schools of its annual tree
lighting essay contest. Essays are
turned in to the elementary office
and the winner gets to read their
essay at the Set the Season Aglow
event at The Shops at Woodlake
before flipping the switch that
lights the giant Christmas tree.
This years winning essay was
written by Jacob Zimmermann, a
fourth grader in Mrs. Sprangs
class. His parents said they were so
happy for Jacob when they re-
ceived the phone call notifying
them that Jacob had won, and a lit-
tle curious about what he wrote.
What an opportunity for a young
child to take part in being able to
read his or her essay and lighting
the community Christmas tree at
the Set the Season Aglow event,
said Jacobs mother, Jennifer. We
are all so proud of Jacob and his
essay!
It was clear in reading Jacobs
essay that family comes first dur-
ing the holidays. He wrote that
Christmas Eve is his favorite holi-
day, because its also his dads
birthday. He also likes going to
church with his parents and grand-
parents. We get dressed up and
brush our teeth to go to church,
wrote Jacob. I like it when they
sing, and turn off the lights and
light candles. Jacob wrote that
after church they go out to eat for
his dads birthday, then drive
around and look at Christmas
lights.
Opening presents gets a brief
mention, before Jacob talks more
about spending time with family.
After the drive to look at lights,
Jacob writes, Then we go to my
grandparents to open up presents
and eat cookies that my grandma
made. I love all my grandmas
cookies.
Jacob wrote that his grandma
likes to take lots of pictures, and he
likes to play with all his cousins
before going home to watch
Christmas movies while his dad
makes a fire in the fireplace and
his mother makes hot chocolate
with a candy cane and marshmal-
lows. He ends his night putting out
cookies and milk for Santa and
again, brushing his teeth. One
year my dog, Max, ate the cook-
ies,wrote Jacob.
Jennifer said Jacobs grandpar-
ents, Conrad and Joan Zimmer-
mann, hold a very special place in
Jacob life and heart. Last year at
this time Jacobs grandfather be-
came ill, which was very emo-
tional not just for Jacob but for the
whole family, Jennifer said. Con-
rad had to undergo an amputation
of his lower leg, but everyone is
proud of his progress. Jacob was
so excited that his grandparents
were able to attend the reading of
the essay along with his uncles,
aunts and cousins, said Jennifer.
Michael Belot emceed this
years Set the Season Aglow event

Hometown Harmony Tradition
sang for the evening, and Village
President Tom Schnettler spoke
about the Village and how he knew

Midwest Power Yoga announces Yoga Teacher
Training Scholarship Contest for high school
students
One lucky student will be trained to start a career as a yoga teacher
Midwest Power Yoga owner
Deborah Williamson is offering a
$3,500 yoga teacher training cer-
tification scholarship to one lucky
essayist from an area high school.
Sheboygan Falls, Plymouth,
Kohler and Sheboygan High stu-
dents from ages 15-18 are invited
to participate in the essay contest
available online at www.wild-
abundantlife.com/highschoolcon-
test which will award tuition and
materials for the internationally
recognized WILD ABUNDANT
LIFE 200 hour program.
The winner will be notified on
JANUARY 15th. Teacher training
runs for 8 weekends this winter
(January 31 - April 6) at Midwest
Power Yoga. There is a Teacher
Training open house for students,
their parents, and interested others
on Tuesday, January 7, 2014 at
7:45 p.m. (at Midwest Power
Yoga, 641 Monroe Street, #105,
Sheboygan Falls, WI 53085).
Midwest Power Yoga Studio
owner Debbie Williamson has
awarded two previous training
scholarships for teens since open-
ing her doors in Falls in July of
2012; one to Genevieve Gates of
Sheboygan Falls, and one to
Madeline Kelly of Kohler. Since
then other teens from Wisconsin
and other states have traveled in to
take the program in order to offer
it to fellow students.
Says Williamson, Teens and
young adults make amazing yoga
teachers because they instantly un-
derstand the relevance of yoga -
it's a practice that improves focus,
concentration, and can be a lifeline
with all the stress of being young
and surviving school and social
situations. Our two scholarship
recipients, Genevieve and Made-
line, were some of the very best
teachers I've had. These girls are
so bright and mature, and really
held the standard high for the
adults in the program too. This is
a skill that they will have for life."
Williamson says that an average
yoga teacher makes $25-$40
hourly, and some make more, de-
pending on market and location.
With well over 19 million people
practicing yoga in the U.S., yoga
is a growing business and a won-
derful full or part-time career.
Students interested in applying
for the scholarship can visit

Seaside Park, New Jersey reenergized by
KOHLER backup generator donation
Backup generator for administration building ensures government can function in
times of crisis
KOHLER, Wis. December 17,
2013 A hard-hit area on the New
Jersey coast received a big gift
today from Kohler Generators.
In a goodwill gesture, Kohler Gen-
erators donated a commercial-
grade, standby generator to the
Borough of Seaside Park, N.J. The
backup generator will provide
emergency power to the adminis-
tration and executive building,
which serves as a command center
and shelter during crisis situations.
Seaside Park was ravaged by
two disasters in the span of one
year. In October 2012, Superstorm
Sandy swept away its famed
boardwalk and a nearby amuse-
ment park, while destroying
homes and businesses in its path.
The community rebuilt only to
have their efforts set back by a
devastating boardwalk fire in Sep-
tember of this year. Now, to help
ensure another disaster doesnt
cripple Seaside Parks ability to re-
spond to a crisis, Kohler Genera-
tors has donated an emergency
backup generator to power the
Boroughs administration build-
ing, located at 1701 North Ocean
Avenue. This building serves as a
command center and shelter dur-
ing a crisis situation.
Kohler has employees, dealers
and customers throughout the en-
tire East Coast, including this
community, said Brandon Hep-
ner, regional sales manager for
Kohler Generators. Many of us
witnessed the devastation in Sea-
side Park first hand, and have been
inspired by how this community
has pulled together and perse-
vered. As a company, we have a
strong commitment to the commu-
nities where we do business.
When we learned that Seaside
Park was looking for a backup
power solution for the administra-
tion building, Kohler and our
nearby distributor Cooper Electric
jumped at the opportunity to
help.
The 60-kilowatt generator do-
nated by Kohler is large enough to
power the entire building and turns
on automatically when power is
lost. In the face of another disaster,
this will ensure the community can
stay up-and-running to meet the
needs of its residents. The genera-
tor, which is being installed by
Kopp Electric, Toms River, N.J.,
will be operational by the end of
the year. This will prepare Seaside
Park for any weather emergencies
that may hit this winter.
When were faced with a crisis
like Superstorm Sandy or the
boardwalk fire, our administration
building becomes a backup com-
mand center where we coordinate
the response effort and conduct
government business, said Bob
Matthies, mayor of Seaside Park.
It also serves as a shelter for res-
idents who are most in need. Its
absolutely critical to have reliable
backup power in this building so
we can keep the city up-and-run-
ning, especially during an emer-
gency situation. This generator
from Kohler ensures we can re-
spond to the needs of our residents
during a time of crisis. Its an
amazing gift during this holiday
season.
In addition to commercial gen-
erators like the one donated to
Seaside Park Kohler also makes
backup home generators. These
generators, often referred to as
standby generators, vary in size
and can power everything in a
home, including: lights, heating
and cooling systems, sump pumps,
refrigerators, home security sys-
tems, office equipment and deli-
cate electronics. A standby gener-
ator is permanently installed out-
side the home, like a central air
conditioning unit. It runs on
propane or natural gas through ex-
isting fuel lines in a home. A trans-
fer switch automatically transfers
the electrical load to the generator
if utility power is lost, usually
within 10 seconds. Homeowners
do not need to be present because
its fully automatic.
Backup power is indeed a
must have for municipalities like
Seaside Park, Hepner said. Its
also important for homeowners
and businesses especially in
areas prone to severe weather
events and prolonged power out-
ages. When severe weather hits
and the power goes out, it takes
time for the utilities and local au-
thorities to respond. Thats why
its important to consider a backup
generator that automatically turns
on when power is lost. Its a smart
way to protect your home, family
and business.

Cassy Tully Studio
and Framing Shop
holds grand opening
Cassy Tully held a Grand Open-
ing celebration on December 6 for
her new Studio & Framing Shop at
its new location in the heart of his-
toric Plymouth at 437 East Mill
Street.
The shop, renovated by JT Con-
struction, LLC of Elkhart Lake,
features a Tuscan-inspired studio
for Cassy to create her signature
relief-style paintings, commis-
sioned pieces, and golf course-in-
spired pieces; an expanded custom
framing area; and gallery space to
promote other artists.
As my art has grown in value
and prestige across the country, I
am proud to make this important
move that establishes my business
in our community, Cassy said. I
am grateful for the many generous
patrons that have supported my art
and dream.
Cassys golf-inspired paintings
include creating original artwork
available at Whistling Straits, as
well as creating the Official Art-
work for the 2012 U.S. Womens
Open, held at Blackwolf Run in
Kohler. Her paintings have also
captured the majesty of Valhalla
Golf Club, host of the 2014 PGA
Championship in Louisville, KY,
as well as legendary Desert Moun-
tain in Scottsdale, AZ. In addition
to her golf artwork, Cassys paint-
ings evoke the timeless splendor of
The American Club and the storied
elegance of Riverbend in Kohler.
The Cassy Tully Fine Art Stu-
dio & Framing Shop offers full-
service custom framing,
commissioned painting consulta-
tion, original paintings and prints.

Second Saturdays-Journeys into
Local History sponsored by the
Sheboygan County Historical Re-
search Center continues on Satur-
day, January 11, 2014, when
Michael Jacobs, Associate Profes-
sor at University of Wisconsins
Baraboo/Sauk County Historical
Department lectures on the history
of the Ku Klux Klan, but focuses
on its activities in Wisconsin dur-
ing the 1920s giving particular at-
tention to its rise, appeal,
opponents and ultimate decline.
The event will take place at the
Plymouth Arts Center, 520 East
Mill Street, Plymouth, from 9:30
am to 11:30 am. Open to the pub-
lic, this free presentation is appro-
priate for adults and students ten
and older. No reservations are
needed. Please call 920-467-4667
for questions.
The Ku Klux Klan (KKK) first
appeared in the United States in
1866. Founded by veterans of the
Confederate Army, its main pur-
pose was to resist Reconstruction
through violent means. The Civil
Rights Act of 1871 essentially de-
stroyed the KKK. In 1915, a sec-
ond group using the same name
was founded by William Joseph
Simmons. The organization grew
slowly until the end of WWI when
Klan recruiters known as klea-
gles traveled around the country
to sign up new members. Postwar
fears of radicalism and disloyalty
led Klan members to organize and
declare themselves the defenders
of Americanism.
Generally perceived as a post-
Civil War southern terrorist group
or Civil Rights era white suprema-
cist organization, the Ku Klux
Klan attained its greatest member-
ship and following in the 1920s.
African-Americans were just one
of many Klan targets and this in-
carnation of the Klan thrived in the
Midwesteven in Wisconsin.
The Klan was openly hostile to
Catholics, Jews, African Ameri-
cans, immigrants, freethinkers, and
radicals. No one knows for sure
how many Americans joined but
the best estimates are around 2 mil-
lion members, some 15,000 of
which were in Wisconsin.
Mike Jacobs, a native of Lake
County, Indiana, received a BS in
History with minors in Multi-Cul-
tural Education, Religious Studies,
American Studies, and English
from Ball State University in 1990.
He received his MA and PhD in
American History from Marquette
University in 1992 and 2001 re-
spectively.

on the KKK focusing on its activities in

Students from Kohler High
School, along with nearly 700 high
school students and 45 teachers
from across the state, gathered in
Madison on December 2 for the
Ninth Annual Great World Texts
student conference. This year,
Nobel Prize-winning author Orhan
Pamuk spoke with students and re-
sponded to the work they pre-
sented in response to his novel

The Great World Texts program
is an outreach initiative of the Uni-
versity of Wisconsin-Madison
Center for the Humanities that pro-
vides support for high school
teachers to engage their students in
an indepth study of classic literary
world texts. In 2013, the Wiscon-
sin Department of Public Instruc-
tion adopted the Great World Text
teaching materials as a model for
how teachers can maintain flexibil-
ity and creativity in the classroom
while meeting the goals of Com-
mon Core State Standards that are
mandated in Wisconsin and 44
other states.
All Wisconsin high school
teachers are eligible to apply for
the program, which is run by the
Center for the Humanities at the
University of Wisconsin-Madison.
Participating teachers receive
books, support materials and les-
son plans as well as stipends for
material and travel to attend on-
campus workshops with UW fac-
ulty on the cultural and historical
contexts of the text.

Identity Theft
Have you or someone you know been a victim
of Identity Theft. Statistics show that over 8 mil-
lion Americans have been a victim of identity
theft. The perpetrators are looking for victims
without criminal records and good credit rat-
ings, thats you! Protect yourself with some
easy to do steps. Shredding your confidential
mail is very important. Remove unnecessary
identifying information from your checks, such
as phone number and Drivers License number
(a retailer will ask if they need it). Check your
credit report annually for free at www.annual-
creditreport.com. You do not need to sign up for
anything at the site to get the report. Stop un-
solicited pre-approved credit cards from being
mailed by calling
1-888-5-OPTOUT (1-888-567-8688), you can
opt-out for life. Also, never answer questions
about your identity on the phone or by unso-
licited e-mails. Your bank or other financial insti-
tutions have all your information, they dont
need you to tell them again by e-mail or phone.
The Kohler Police Department has a link about
other ways to protect yourself at www.kohlerpo-
lice.com.
Other Scams
There are residents in the Village that have
been targeted by other scam artists. Many of
them prey on your good intentions of helping
those in need. If you get a phone call that
someone you know is stuck in a foreign country
and cant leave until they are wired money,
dont believe it. Any time that a sweepstakes
calls and says that you won and just need to be
wired some money for any reason, dont be-
lieve it. If someone is planning on buying some-
thing from you and accidentally makes the
check out for too much, and asks to either keep
it or send them the difference, dont believe
them. Youll be out the check amount and the
extra that you sent back. These are some of
the most common ways for you to get talked
out of your hard earned cash. The wired money
can be retrieved from anywhere, and usually it
is out of the country, so you dont have much
recourse. Also, any time you cash a check
which bounces, or is fraudulent, you are on the
hook. Your bank will make you reimburse them.
If you get targeted by one of these or another
attempt to swindle you of your money, call our
department for advice, 920-459-3877.

SNOW EMERGENCY
To find out if a snow emergency is in effect for
the Village call 920-459-3881, or check the vil-
lage website at www.kohlervillage.org. There is
no parking on village streets during a snow
emergency. A snow emergency is called when
accumulation is expected to exceed four
inches. Snow emergencies are typically called
from 8:00 AM until 12:00 PM to give the snow-
plows an opportunity to clear the streets with no
cars in the way.
SNOW REMOVAL
Winter is upon us. Here are some reminders on
Village snow removal ordinances and policies.
Please remember to shovel your sidewalks
within 24 hours after a snowfall event.
Do not blow or shovel snow back into the
street.
3. Please remove vehicles from the street when
the plows are in operation.
4. Please do not put garbage cans in the street
when it is snowing and plows are in operation.
CHRISTMAS TREE PICKUP
Christmas trees will be picked up the first three
Tuesdays in January.
SNOW REMOVAL AROUND MAIL KIOSKS
It is the residents responsibility to have the
snow removed around the kiosks/NDCBU
(neighborhood delivery and collection box
unit)/cluster boxes. The Postal Service will not
deliver mail if the carrier is not able to reach the
unit the front as well as the backside. Some-
one in the unit/neighborhood needs to take the
initiative to remove the snow; or maybe the re-
sponsibility can be shared within the unit. The
Village is not responsible to keep these areas
clear of snow.

Advisory in the High School:
Ethics: Presentation by Liza Fluet, Director
of College and Career, on academic in-
tegrity. Students compared and contrasted
their definition with post-secondary institu-
tions. Surprises lead to deeper under-
standing and preparation for success.
AODA: Presentation by Reji Laberle and Bob
Brenner based on the Winning of Life curricu-
lum had the high school enrapt in a story
about addition. A powerful component of the
advisory experience is having students share
their thoughts in a safe and supportive peer
environment. The teachers reported refresh-
ing candor from students. The extension of
thoughts promoted personal well-
being.from more than 3,000 classrooms as

Kohler 78, Sevastopol 30
The wheels fell off the wagon
for the visiting Pioneers, as the
Bombers easily disposed of its first
round opponent, Sevastopol, 78-
30, Friday, December 13th, in the
four-team invitational at Kohler
Schools.
It was a balanced attack for the
Bombers with ten of its players
making their way to the basket.
Jordan Toeller and Eric Bauer
came off the bench to finish with
13 and 11 points, as star-studded
Kohler ripped the game wide open
early, before cruising to its most
convincing victory here so far.
It was a great game for us over-
all, from the guys on the court to
the guys on the bench. We were all
into the game from start to finish,
said Kohler forward Zach Neil. It
was not only a big win for us, but
it was a great confidence booster.
The Pioneers will have to stake
claim on another territory, because
this gym belongs to the Kohler
Blue Bombers!
Kohler Case 6, Neil 5, Fink 5, Pellowski
6, Mueller 15, Stefanczyk 9, Toeller 13,
Bauer 11, Ladwig 6, Gartman 2. 3-pt: Bauer
3, Mueller 2, Fink, Stefanczyk, Toeller.
Kohler 71, Gibraltar 50
Kohler capped its conquest of
the championship win in the
Kohler Schools Basketball Invita-
tional with a 71-50 dismantling of
the Gibraltar Vikings Saturday,
December 14th.
Gibraltar had surged ahead
early, grabbing a 20-14 lead in the
first quarter but the Bombers
weren't about to jump ship. Kohler,
led by Noah Fink and Brett
Mueller with 19 and 18 points, bat-
tled back in the second half to
knock the wind out of their sails.
It wasn't easy to dig ourselves
out of the hole we made in the first
quarter, Kohler forward Joe Pel-
lowski said. After that we picked
ourselves up and kept up the inten-
sity to pull out the win.
The Bombers tightened up on
defense late in the first half hold-
ing Gibraltar to only 7 points in the
second quarter, slowing Gibraltars
momentum in time to take the lead
at halftime 35-27 and swing it in
Kohlers direction in the third and
fourth quarters.
Ive heard the Vikings have set
up a fan support line as a result of
their recent championship loss to
the Blue Bombers. For those
wanting to call, the phone number
is 1-800-10-10-10. Again, that
number is 1-800-won nothing-won
nothing-won nothing.

Mueller 18, Stefanczyk 4, Toeller 5, Bauer
8, Ladwig 4, Gartman 2. 3-pt: Fink 4, Bauer
2, Mueller 2, Toeller 1.
Cedar Grove-Belgium 61,
Kohler 47 (3-4, 1-4 CLC)
Cedar Grove must have
launched a spy satellite rocket ear-
lier this week because they defi-
nitely had our game plan figured
out as they soared to a 61-47 win
December 20th over the Kohler
Blue Bombers.
Brennan Ladwig had a team
high 11 points and Jordan Toeller
added 9 in Kohlers road loss. The
visiting Bombers held the Rockets
on the launch pad throughout the
first half but were not able to
muster up enough offense down
the stretch to keep them from sky-
rocketing to victory.
We need to consistently play
better defense, said forward
Calvin Stefanczyk. It is all about
effort. We just have to decide that
we want to win.
Jake Winker led the star-studded
attack for Cedar Grove with 22
points, followed by RJ Lemmer-
mann with 13.
Cedar Grove may need a rocket
in order to reach the stars, but our
boys will keep their feet on the
ground, as William Shakespeare
teaches us, It is not in the stars to
hold our destiny but in ourselves.
Kohler Case 7, Fink 8, Pellowski 2,
Mueller 1, Stefanczyk 5, Toeller 9, Bauer 4,
Ladwig 11. 3-pt: Fink 2.

The team is looking forward to

participating in several competi-
tive tournaments including the
Wisconsin State Invitational

its conference season. The eleven
member team showed much im-
provement over the course of the
short season. A highlight of their
season was a thrilling double over-

Best of luck to the 8th grade
team and their coaches, Pete
Schueller and David Albrecht, dur-
ing their winter basketball season.
