spearheads
fundraiser for
St. Baldricks
Colette Vitiritti gave
up some of her time and a
lot of her locks for a good
cause.
It has paid off.
A fundraiser organized
by Vitiritti and staged by
River Bluff Middle School
students had raised about
$2,500 for the St. Baldricks Foundation between
online and monetary donations as of Monday, June 9.
A dozen students, including
Vitiritti, and one teacher
agreed to shave their heads
to show support for kids
who suffer from cancer,
since many of those children will lose their hair during treatment. The students
encourage others to donate
money to support childhood
cancer research.
My cousin did it at her
school, Vitiritti, an eighthgrader at River Bluff, said.
I thought it was really neat
they could raise money.
The students shaved their
heads during lunch periods on June 5. Students
were made aware of the
fundraiser through school
announcements and posters, Vitiritti said, and the
event itself was covered by
Madisons ABC affiliate,
WKOW.
St. Baldricks head-shaving events began as a challenge between businessmen
and have grown from one
event in 2000 to over 1,300
events in 2012, raising critical funds for childhood cancer research, according to
the St. Baldricks Foundation website.

Object to language
Most council members
seemed to support the
effort last week, but some
objected to language in the
resolution that states, We
the People of the City of
Stoughton, Wisconsin, seek
to reclaim democracy from
the expansion of corporate
Constitutional rights (e.g.,
corporate personhood)
and the corrupting influence
of unregulated political
contributions and spending.
We stand with the Move to
Amend campaign and communities across the country
to support passage of an
amendment to the United
States Constitution
Lawrence and Hohol
(D-4) said they wanted the
wording changed to say
we the Common Council
of the City of Stoughton.
They agreed with Mayor
Olson, who said before we
support the referendum or
not, we should know what
that question is.
Stoughton Move to
Amend has worked with
the CA/CP Committee on
the wording of the resolution, but they have not suggested the exact wording of
the proposed referendum.
Thats one of the things
Purpose unclear
Olson thought it was OK
for the Common Council
to say it stands with Move
to Amend, but the council
shouldnt say the entire city
supports the effort.
She said its also unclear
whether Move to Amend
wants the council to put a
referendum on the ballot, or
if the council is being asked
simply to endorse Move to
Amends effort to place the
question on the ballot.
They came in saying we
would like your support and
we would like to put it on
the ballot, and then through
some discussions at CA/CP,
they decided it would be so
much easier if we just did

three years ago basically rubber-stamped the towns decision, as members said they
lacked authority to overrule
the towns vote. It remains
to be seen if that will be the
case again.
Magnum appealed the
towns 2011 vote but was
rebuffed by a Dane County
judge last September. Citing
the change in state law last
year, however, the company
reapplied with Rutland in
February.
Tower opponents say its
size and lights would mar the
rural landscape and reduce
nearby property values,
while proponents have said
a local radio station could
improve emergency communication and air broadcasts of
local high school sports.
White said Magnum has
not planned its next steps but
signaled more litigation is
likely.
Well probably let the
judicial system make the
determination as to what
standards needed to be
applied in these circumstances, he said.
Beske conceded that its
hard to know for sure how
the new state law conforms
with farmland preservation
ordinances, but in the end,
town officials felt they had
to follow Dane County zoning rules on this.
Its unfortunate, he
added, that the state legislature saw fit to take the local
control away through last
years new law. We had
gone through the whole process and then the rules were
changed.

Dont give up
That kind of support
from friends and family
is what has kept Denny
going, he said.
I would have been
dead (without that help),
Denny said. I would
have given up last year. I
couldnt get no lower.
For the past two summers, supporters of Sue
and Denny have stepped
in to help with yard work
and housework, as well
as helping drive Denny to
the hospital to ensure Sue
can keep her job at WPS
to maintain health benefits
for the family.
I wouldnt have a job if
it werent for them, Sue
said.
Like many in the
Stoughton community,
the Marez family is used
to rebuilding. They were
one of the families that
lost their home after the
Stoughton tornado of
2005. The two rebuilt the
demolished structure in
the same lot because they
wanted to stay in Stoughton.

Denny and Sues Relay For Life team, the Mighty Mites, will sell rain boot planters with flowers in them to raise money. They represent
Giving Cancer the Boot, the theme of this years event, but also represent Denny, who loves flowers. The two are set to give speeches at
the June 20-21 event.
