Council approves funding

for shoreline project
Yahara River
streambank to
be stabilized
Bill Livick
The Common
Council authorized
the city to spend
$41,000 on a project
to stabilize the Yahara
River streambank at
Division Street Park
during its meeting
Tuesday, Sept. 13.
The city has been

which is designed to
prevent further erosion of the shoreline,
for a few years but

director Tom Lynch
told the Hub.
The city budgets a
certain amount when

were applying for
grants, and although
we didnt get a grant,
our consultant felt
that by him not doing
as much of it, we
could keep the price
down and do this project for the amount of
money the city had set
aside, he said.
He added that the
Division Street Park
stretch of the streambank appears to be
the only segment that
needs shoring up.
Lynch said the city
received six bids, and
the contract is going
to the lowest bidder.
He added that Stoughton Utilities secured a
$15,000 grant to contribute to the project
cost.

Restaurateur reflects on viral fundraiser
Samantha Christian
Donning a matching El
Rio Grande cap and T-shirt,
Joel Cervantes Macias, 41,
offered a hearty handshake
and warm hello before sitting down with the Hub at
his familys Mexican restaurant on Friday, Sept. 16.
He had been making their
famous mahi mahi tacos
on his first day back in the
kitchen in the week since a
GoFundMe page he set up
quickly gained international attention. In just 10 days,
17,448 strangers raised
$385,290 for 89-year-old
ice pop vendor Fidencio
Sanchez.
That amount could buy
about two paletas (traditional Mexican frozen treats) for
every resident of Stoughton
and Chicagos Little Village (where Macias grew
up and took the viral photo
of Sanchez on Sept. 8), but
the money has a more satisfying purpose. It will help
Sanchez retire and take care
of his wife and two grown
grandchildren after his only
daughter, who had helped
financially support them,
died this summer.
My wife and I first and
foremost want to thank God
for everything and especially for his angels Joel and
Jose, Sanchez said in a
news release. We also want
to thank all the generous
people around the world for
their kindness and love.
Major media outlets
from around the world have
shared Sanchezs story and
talked to Macias, including Ryan Seacrest and producers from The Ellen
DeGeneres Show. And yet,
Macias said in a Facebook
post, the Hub story last
week is the one closest to
my heart.
His Relief for Fidencio the paleta man campaign has also inspired
another person to start
a similar fundraiser for

vendor from Joliet, Ill., who
is struggling to pay medical bills after a dog recently
attacked him. Some people
initially questioned whether
the fundraisers were frauds,
but once they were verified
by the press, Macias said
most of the comments on
those stories have been positive.
Macias chose to close the
campaign Monday afternoon in the presence of the
Sanchez family (who have
met with financial advisors
and tax and consumer attorneys) at a lawyers office in
Chicago. A check presentation ceremony was planned
for Wednesday at Paleteria Y Neveria Poncho, the
business for which Sanchez
pushed a paleta cart for over
20 years.
And then thats it, and
well ride off into the sunset
and Ill come back to selling
chimichangas, Macias said
with a laugh.
Colorful paper designs

were strung above El Rio
Grandes booths and tables
mostly empty that Friday afternoon as the song
Georgia on My Mind
played throughout the dining area.
But Macias had been
told its the calm before
the storm, with business
expected to pick up as word
of his good deed spreads
through Stoughton, where
he has worked on Main
Street with his siblings
Cesar and Erika Cervantes
since 2004.
And even though Illinois
has been on his mind lately, Wisconsin will always
have a special place in his
heart, because I live here
and Stoughton is my home
Im going to take care of
my people.

Ever wonder what each city department does or

what they look like behind the scenes? Now you
can explore their buildings and see their operations by visiting each of the departments below!
with Joel Cervantes Macias
The following questions and answers

have been edited for length and clarity.
Stoughton Courier Hub: You went
from being a restaurant owner to speaking to national media, including on NBC
Nightly News. What has that experience
been like?
Joel Cervantes Macias: Its very surreal. But, I mean, I talk to a lot of people
here (at the restaurant). Its just me. I dont
feel any different. I think anyone would
have done the same thing I did. But its
really nice for people to recognize. I mean,
I try to do good deeds, and I dont have a
camera in front of me when I do them. But
in this case it was a lot different. I took the
picture. We did the GoFundMe. A lot of
people wanted to interview me for that. I
didnt do it to for any medals or anything.
I just did it from the kindness of my heart.
Just to be kind.
Hub: Life outside of work has been
pretty busy for you lately. How have you
still been able to take care of your business
while being in the spotlight?
Macias: My brother and sister are the
ones that do most of the running here, so
they were backing it up. They are the heart
and soul of this place. I had promised my
sister I would come this weekend, because
shes standing up in her best friends wedding and theres a lot of kids that work here
that are going to be at homecoming. So I
canceled everything and told Joe Loera just
to do all the media for this weekend. The
lawyer took a lot of pressure off of me, and
(Joe) did, too. So it feels great being back.
I love it here.
Hub: What drew you to the Stoughton
area?
Macias: We moved here in May of 2004.
We were scouting the Wisconsin area for
restaurants for six months, and when we
got to Stoughton, this place was closed.
And we checked it out and it had everything we needed (booths, chairs, hood system). So it was basically a turn-key, and we
fixed it up. We had to do a new roof, new
carpeting, we did our little cheesy decor,
and we just kind of made it look a little
Mexican and we opened up.
Hub: Do you go back to Chicago to visit
family often?
Macias: I dont last more than a month
here, and then I take off. Ive got my beautiful kid down there, and I just have to go
see him hes going to be 2 in October.
Hes a blessing. Everybodys saying (after
the GoFundMe), Oh, youre going to be
blessed. I was like, My son is a blessing
enough. You know, Im happy with that.
Hub: What was going through your
mind when you took the picture?
Macias: It broke my heart to see him
push his cart at that age. He should be
enjoying retirement. I think it touched
everybodys heart, because most of the
people have grandpas and hardworking
ones and I think people were (looking)
for a feel-good story. And I think thats
why people are contributing, because I
guess they want to be part of something
good, I think. But the outpouring of support has been amazing. Over 60 countries
have donated.
Hub: So Fidencio reminded you of your
grandpa?
Macias: Actually he reminded me of my
grandma, because my grandma is exactly
89 years old. And I just pictured her, like
pushing a cart trying to make ends meet.
And it was just so sad. I got out of my car,
and it was a chilly day, so I didnt want
a Popsicle, but I thought, well, my mom
has a freezer in the garage, Ill just buy a
bunch and just put them in the freezer. So, I
asked him for 20 Popsicles and I gave him
a $50 and told him to keep the change. And
that was after I took the picture. He didnt
know I took a picture.
Hub: Did you think the picture would
get this much attention?
Macias: I thought, Im going to post a
picture, and people are going to like it, and
thats it. But it started this whole monster,

Joel Cervantes Macias posted a live video

to Facebook that showed Chicago paletas
vendor Fidencio Sanchez, above, during an
interview on Monday, Sept. 12.
like a snowball effect. We did the

$3,000 goal for GoFundMe, and within
less than an hour it was up to $4,000.
And then when I woke up it was at like
$40,000. It was like, oh my goodness,
what did I do? I started kind of panicking. I had all these people calling me,
my phone had like 50 missed calls. It
was just, it was crazy.
Anything I posted about the story on
Facebook is public. I kind of miss my
old Facebook now, because I accepted
almost everybody (friend requests), and
that was like in the first or second day,
and I wanted it (the campaign) to get
bigger for him. And now I was like, I
dont even know you. So, I might have
to start a new Facebook. But the majority of people have been 95 percent have
been really nice people.
Hub: All of a sudden you and Fidencio a stranger have all these connections. What was it like to meet him?
Macias: He just looks like a regular
person. We call him abuelito, grandpa.
It feels good that I did it for him, but it
doesnt feel any different. I mean, hes
just so small, hes so fragile. When I
hugged him its like, Oh, youre so
tiny. Hes a vegan. I go, What keeps
you going? And he said, I havent
had red meat in 40 years. And he said,
I dont eat cheese, I just drink water.
I dont drink anything with color in it.
Everything that grows from the earth.
Hub: So he doesnt eat the ice pops
hes been selling for almost 30 years?
Macias: No, he stays away from sugar and all that. The irony of it. He said
that was one of the secrets of his longevity. But hes pretty happy. He said hes
going to stop selling Popsicles, but he
wants to work. He said it just gives him
a sense of purpose.
Hub: How would you say this experience has changed your outlook on life?
Macias: It gave me more hope in
humanity, and how theres so many people out there willing to help one another.
They just bombard you with this negative news, every single day on the news,
and theres a lot of feel-good stories out
there.
Ive never had anyone from Germany
tell me, Wow, you touched my heart. I
have this image of Germans to be tough
and strong, and there were a lot of heartwarming comments from people from
there and Israel, Turkey, and India and
the U.K. The BBC wants to do an interview still. And it just showed me how
everywhere that were all humans. And
humans want to be part of something
nice, and its human nature to be kind
if youre a regular person. Its really
changed me a little bit with all the positive comments from everywhere around
the world.

Student home after

football injury
Continued from page 1
Back injury occurred

during Sept. 13 game
Stoughton seventh-grader Isaac Knutson is healthy
and back home after an
injury scare during a youth
football game Tuesday,
Sept. 13.
Knuston was discharged
the next morning from
American Family Childrens Hospital in Madison
after a back injury caused
numbness and tingling
in his legs, according to a
report on Channel3000. He
was transported there via
Med Flight helicopter after
he didnt get up from
a collision during Tuesday nights game, played
adjacent to Fox Prairie
Elementary School. Med
Flight officials told the Hub
the call came in around
6:20p.m.
In an email to the Hub

last week, Stoughton Youth
Football Board president
Scott Newman noted the
group had hired a professional on-site staff two
years ago and credited a
swift and professional
response by the medical
staff and offseason training
by coaches for minimizing
the impact of the injury.
Everyone knew where
to be and what to do, he
wrote. In the end, player
safety is the top priority of
Stoughton Football Inc.
SASD spokesperson Derek Spellman told the Hub
school counselors were
made aware of the situation last week, and that
counselors were available
to answer any questions
students have.

Stoughton woman airlifted

after Saturday morning crash
A 73-year-old Stoughton
woman was injured in a
two-vehicle crash Saturday
morning on the citys north
side and was transported to
a hospital by MedFlight,
Stoughton police reported.
Police were alerted to the
crash shortly after 9:40a.m.
Saturday, Sept. 17, after
the woman allegedly failed
to yield while leaving a
stop sign on Country Club
Road and was struck by a
truck traveling westbound
on County Hwy. B, Lt.
Dan Jenks told the Hub
in an email. The driver, a
69-year-old Stoughton man,

was not injured.
Stoughton Fire Department, Stoughton Area EMS
personnel and Dane County Sheriffs Office deputies
also responded to the scene.
Jenks told the Hub Monday the womans injury
was significant enough to
request MedFlight, but no
further details on her condition were available.
The woman was cited for
failing to yield at the stop
sign, the report said.
Kate Newton
City of Stoughton
Comprehensive plan
survey going out
A decade after Stoughton
completed its first comprehensive plan, city officials
are looking for more public
input on its update.
That starts this month
with a community survey
addressing a variety of topics.
A postcard directing people to the survey was to be
mailed to property and business owners by this week. It
includes questions about a
variety of topics related to
community development
and growth, including housing and retail development,
what people think of city
facilities and services and
their priorities.
The commission is also
planning an Oct. 20 visioning workshop to gather
some of the same feedback
and dig a bit deeper.
The Plan Commission
spent a large part of an
hourlong meeting last week
discussing whether TIF is
an appropriate topic for
the survey and ultimately
decided to take out some

questions and leave in a
reference as part of a more
general question. They also
adjusted the wording and
tone of several other questions and deleted some they
deemed too specific but left
the final result in the hands
of planner Rodney Scheel
and a hired consultant, Vandewalle and Associates.
We want to get this out,
commissioner Matt Hanna
concluded. We could pick
this apart for another three
meetings.
Peggy Veregin, representing the Landmarks Commission, suggested at the
meeting that historic preservation planning be recognized and a part of the
process, but commissioners
agreed that questions on the
survey addressed that topic in general and that input
from the commission would
cover individual properties.
Jim Ferolie
north of Roby Road. They

say it would create a safety hazard for people who
live on the east side of the
road, especially for a child
with Down syndrome.
Last month, the Public
Safety committee voted
3-1 to move ahead with
the citys plans, but after
the Sept. 13 meeting, at
least one member of the
committee indicated he
was likely to switch his
vote. Ald. Greg Jenson
(D-3) said he was moved
by the public testimony
and may vote against the
ordinances.
That testimony came
before the council held
first readings of two ordinances relating to the
bicycle lanes and the parking restriction. The first
would establish bike lanes
on several streets, including both sides of Kings
Lynn Road north of Roby
Road. The second would
prohibit parking on the
east side of Kings Lynn
north of Roby Road.
About four blocks of
Kings Lynn Road were
reconstructed this summer. The work involved
spot curb and gutter
replacement, spot sidewalk and apron replacement, the installation of
traffic calming islands and
resurfacing the pavement.
The project also included
restriping the centerline
and painted on-street bike
lanes and shared parking/
bike lanes.
The city has established
bike lanes on Kings Lynn
Road from Jackson Street
north to Roby Road, and
also restricts parking on
one side.
In order to create or
amend an ordinance,
the council is normally
required to consider it at
two consecutive meetings,
with a vote taking place at
the second meeting.
The issue has become
significant after Kings
Lynn Road homeowner Mark Johnson began
collecting signatures in
July asking the city to
remove the planned bike
lanes on both sides of the
road between Jackson
Street and Roby Road and
also to remove a parking
restriction on the east side
of Kings Lynn.
Addressing the council during its public comment period last Tuesday,
Johnson said he went door
to door and collected 55
signatures of people who
agreed with him, but his
request had been rejected
by the Public Safety committee.
Four people spoke in
favor of the plan.
Opponents cited several
reasons, including:
Bike lanes extended
north of Roby Road would
lead nowhere because
Kings Lynn dead ends
about 150 north of Felland
Street;
A child with Down
syndrome lives on that
segment of Kings Lynn
and would be in danger if
parking were not allowed
on the east side of the
street;
A steep grade on the
east side makes it difficult for vehicles to access
d r ivewa y s d u r i n g t h e
winter months, so many
homeowners choose to
park on the street in front
of their homes.
In a memo to the Public Safety Committee,
planning director Rodney Scheel noted that the
bike lanes and parking
restrictions were already
in place for Kings Lynn
Road from Jackson Street
to Roby Road.
H e a d d e d t h a t b i ke
lanes were not painted on
Kings Lynn from north
of Buckingham Road to
about 900 feet north of
Roby Road, but a plat for
the area shows on-street
bike lanes on both sides
of the street. The design
and reconstruction plan
included bike lanes for the
full length of Kings Lynn,
Scheel wrote.
This has been planned
for a few years, and there
was no comment at all prior to a few weeks ago,
Mike Engelberger, a Dist.
2 alder and chair of the
committee, told the Hub.
It was planned and
engineered to have the
bike lanes as is and actually increase it for a few
blocks, he said.
He added that the city
held a public hearing prior
to the start of the project
earlier this year and no
one said anything about
bike lanes.

Opinion
Letter to the editor
Removing parking would threaten safety

Many residents of Kings
Lynn Road came together as
a common voice during last
Tuesdays council meeting
to speak out against a plan to
paint bike lanes, which would
revoke their ability to park
in front of their homes. They
highlighted research proving
these lanes are not warranted
and will cause hardship to the
their families.
The beautiful, wide, tree
lined residential street can
safely accommodate the occasional bike rider without spoiling the area aesthetic by painting bike lanes. The increase in
foot traffic of families crossing
the road, complications with
snow removal, steep driveways
and the topography of Kings
Lynn Road north of Roby compound the safety imperilment
this ordinance would have on
the elderly and disabled.
As an advocate for children
with special needs and their
families, this situation was
brought to my attention specifically because of the threat this
proposed ordinance has to the
safety of a 9-year-old boy who
lives with his family on the
east side of the road.
Ethan has Down syndrome,
with significant cognitive
disability that includes a near
absence of safety awareness.
He has an invaluable ability
to teach our children about
love, tolerance and acceptance
of differences, and his health
complications make him a warrior and a survivor.
Most of us cannot begin
to comprehend what Ethans
family experiences on a daily
basis to ensure his wellbeing.
Complexities increase during

fall and winter months, when
it becomes dark earlier and the
roads are hazardous. Inclement
weather renders their driveway
practically unusable, making
year-round accessible parking in front of their residence
imperative.
Every morning Ethans mom
walks him from the school
parking lot into the school. On
a recent morning, like most,
he broke her grip as he seeks
independence. Fortunately, the
crossing guard is always there
and ready to make sure cars
stop.
There will be no crossing
guard in front of Ethans home.
If their car is across the street,
Ethan will get hit by a car in
the middle of his quiet, treelined street. This critical situation necessitates the dismissal
of this proposed ordinance, as
the need is insubstantial while
the threat to public safety is
immense.
The community has an

Steampunk: An adventure
in Victorian science fiction
see it everywhere: science fiction that has the look and feel
of the Victorian era. Its called
Steampunk, and its in fashion.
No type of science fiction or
fantasy is as much fun to read,
look at, and even participate in.
Steampunk is word you
might be encountering more and
more these days. Its is a kind of
literature, a kind of art, and a kind
of do-it-yourself game, where the
rules can be
anything you
want them to
be. In books,
graphic novels,
and movies,
steampunk
imagines a
world where
the internal
MacDonald
combustion
engine was
never invented,
and where being a mad scientist
is pretty much par for the course.
In steampunk stories, technology has evolved based on
steam-power and clockwork, and
the machines (airships, trains,
time machines) are beautiful and
elaborate art as much as technology.
Steampunk celebrates jury-rigging and lateral thinking; it
rewards imagination and whimsy.
The impossible can be achieved
simply by adding more gears.
Steampunk uses the look and
feel of the Victorian era without
bothering much about Victorian
history. Its palette is largely sepia
and bronze.
Men wear frock coats and top
hats, women wear bustles or
frock coats and everybody
wears goggles. Airships and
trains are the preferred methods
of travel. And while Victorian
society in the real world was
dominated by white men, steampunk lets everybody choose the
role they want.
In spite of its vintage look and
feel, steampunk as a modern literary genre is relatively new, with
roots that reach back only to the
last quarter of the 20th century,
and acquiring its name only as
Steampunk samples
Anti-Ice, by Stephen Baxter
In 1855, the British discover a new natural energy source and use
it to win the Crimean War.

recently as 1987.
The precursors of steampunk
can be traced back to the 19th
century, with titles such as Jules
Vernes 20,000 Leagues Under
the Sea (1870) and H. G. Wells
The Time Machine (1895), and
even Mary Shelleys Frankenstein (1818).
Anything with elaborate
steam-powered machinery can be
steampunk, anything that crosses
Victorian fashion with more modern elements can be steampunk,
and anything with airships is definitely steampunk.
Steampunk is in fashion right
now, which is a great thing, since
theres no branch of science fiction or fantasy thats as much fun
to read, look at, or even participate in.
Regardless of your knowledge
of or experience reading steampunk, you can jump right in and
start enjoying the short stories,
novels, or graphic novels.
You can create your own steampunk machines, weapons,
and costumes and share them,
online and in person with others
of a steampunkish mind. There
are instructions easily available
online to steampunk your keyboard, your monitor, and just
about your entire life.

If you want to learn more about
steampunk in real life, take a look
at the books Steampunk: The
Art of Victorian Futurism by Jay
Strongman and Steampunk: An
Illustrated History of Fantastical
Fiction, Fanciful Film, and Other
Victorian Visions by Brian J.
Robb.
A lot of people enjoy the steampunk mashup of different
cultures, technologies, futuristic
and retro. Its a very flexible type
of literature and this appeals to
many readers.
Unlike computers, steampunk
machines have their innards on
their outsides. They often look
like those old Rube Goldberg
machines, and are a lot of fun just
to look at and imagine how they
work.
If youd like to give steampunk
a try, stop by the Stoughton Public Library and ask. Well be happy to show you some great ones
to start with.

The Stoughton delegation enjoys a formal dinner in a home

frequented by the King of Norway.
Olsons included Jerry and
Judy Gryttenholm, Marg
Listug, Susan Welch, Staci Heimsoth and Barb and
Dave Kalland.
We were treated like
royalty, Mayor Olson told
the Hub. The night that we
honored our city sister relationship was at this beautiful old historic house that
the king of Norway goes to
when he wants to get away
and recuperate for a bit.
One of the folks on our
trip got to sit in the place
where the king always sits
when he has dinner, she
added. We got to tour the
house and look around, and
that was clearly honoring
the relationship between
our two cities.

River: Goal to prevent erosion

9-1 to spend the money to
stabilize the streambank,
with Ald. Tom Majewski
(D-3) voting against it. He
said the city could avoid
further erosion and save
thousands of dollars
by simply allowing more
water to flow through the
citys dam.
A l d . R eg i n a H i r s c h
argued in favor of the project, saying Division Street
Park is kind of our showcase park during Syttende
Mai and needs improvements. Ald. Mike Engelberger (D-2) voted for the
project, but said he would
like to have a future discussion about opening
the dam and lowering the
water level.
The city had installed
rip rap a shoreline stabilization method involving placing rocks along
the streambank in the
1990s, Lynch said, but the
approach gradually failed

over the years.
During the Syttende
Mai canoe race, people
would just pick up stones
and throw them into the
river, he said. I remember when it happened.
Every single stone got
thrown in the water.
The city is contracting with K&M Tie and
Lumber of Lodi to do
the stabilization project,
which includes installing
a stone toe at the base
of the shoreline, tapering
the slope by grading it and
then planting native vegetation to hold the soil in
place.
Its more of a natural
way of doing it, Lynch
said. Were hoping itll
keep the geese away, too.
Lynch told the council the city would like to
begin the work as soon as
possible.

The group, which visited

Aug. 16-23, spent a full day
at NTNU (formerly Gjovik
University), which merged
with the Norwegian Science
and Technology University in Trondheim in January
2016.
We got to be there when
the university presented
scholarships for students to
come to the United States to
study, Olson recalled.
The Stoughton group also
toured local farms, where
some from the Stoughton
delegation reconnected with
Norwegian relatives, and
businesses such as Overaasen, maker of the huge snow
cleaning equipment used by
major airports around the
globe. The delegation also

A group of city residents,

led by Mayor Donna Olson
and her husband, Randy,
visited Stoughtons sister
city Gjovik, Norway, last
month to celebrate three
decades since Stoughton
and Gjovik began their sister-city relationship.
Earlier this summer Bjorn
Iddberg, Mayor of Gjovik,
invited the Olsons and others to visit Stoughtons sister city. They also celebrated the 170th anniversary of
the first immigration from
Gjovik to America, and the
30th year since inception
of the Kjell Nordviks Fund,
which gives local students
scholarships to study in the
United States.
To r v i l d S v e e n , f o r mer assistant vice mayor
of Gjovik, acted as host
and guide for the visiting
Stoughtonites. He was part
of a delegation that visited
Stoughton last year to witness the opening of Livsreise, the Norwegian Heritage Center in downtown
Stoughton.
It was a busy week for
the Stoughton delegation,
which in addition to the
toured Eketun, an outdoor

history museum.
And they enjoyed a dinner cruise on the worlds
oldest paddle wheeler boat,
Skibladner on Lake Mjosa.
It was on one of the largest lakes in that region, and
it was dinner on the boat
with a jazz band playing
on the deck, Olson said.
Really a fun time.
At a formal dinner held at
the historic Brusveen farm,
which dates back to 1635,
the two mayors agreed to
continue the close relationship into the future and
encouraged future exchanges of ideas and personal
relationships between the
two cities and their citizens.
Stoughtons city council
adopted a proclamation this
summer reinforcing the sister city relationship.
Mayor Iddberg presented the City of Stoughton
with another one of those
beautiful cobalt blue potpourri jars, Olson said.
Fo r m e r M a y o r H e l e n
Johnson received one back
in the mid-80s when she
went to Norway.
He presented us with
that gift, and I presented
them with a rosemaled plate
that had our City Hall painted in the middle of it.

Reading the Scriptures with Humility

Daily reading of the Bible is a time-honored and valuable tool
for spiritual growth. There are systematic ways to do this that
involve reading the Bible from cover to cover over the course of
a year (and reading just three chapters a day will get you through
the Bible in one year). Alternatively, one can choose to read and
study one topic or book of the Bible at a time, using study guides
or commentaries. There is no single right way to read the Bible,
and you will almost always find that you get something new out
of each and every reading; the scriptures are an endless source
of spiritual wisdom. In whatever fashion you read the scriptures,
however, it is important to do so with humility, with an attitude of
seeking versus knowing. We should seek God with a humble spirit, realizing that we are all in the position of children trying to find
our way in the world. We are, as it were, lost in a strange world,
and the Bible reminds us that our true home is elsewhere, and
that if we can only follow Gods directions, we can find our way
back home. Christopher Simon, Metro News Service

Brad and his younger

brother (who did not have
any interest in taking over the
business) often worked for
their parents over the summer, as they only had two
employees for a time.
I had to learn it by doing
it, Brad said.
Despite his interest in the
field, his parents basically
forced him to go to college
and get a business degree.
And its helped out
immensely, he acknowledged. It gives me a different perspective than a lot of
people that are involved in
this industry.
Brad has been doing excavation work for 25 years, but
said theres still times when
an obstacle at a job site surprises him.

years of (Craigs experience)

Nancy and Craig couldnt
ask for anything better than
having passed their business
down to their son, Craig said.
Especially because hes
pretty good at it.
Hes just about as good a
machine operator as I am,
Craig said, nodding toward
Brad. Just about.
Both of them recognize,
though, that the customers are the lifeblood of their
business, and pride themselves on the service they
provide.
We go where our customers go, Brad said. Going
the extra mile means a lot.
As time has passed and
the internet becomes increasingly important, Brad mentioned they had to work on
the website and dabble in
social media. He said its
been an evolution.

And in 40 years, there have
been a few of those.

said. Its neat to see how
its evolved and how weve
evolved.

Forty years ago, Craig

and Nancy Fuller mortgaged
their house.
Ten months later, their
banker dropped the lien on
the property because of their
early success with Fuller
Excavating.
We pretty much had to
sign our life away, Craig
recalled.
(The bankers) philosophy was if you made it one
year, you would make it,
Nancy added.
The bankers faith was
correctly placed, as the business is still going, with one
change: their son Brad has
now taken over, with his wife
Darcy helping when she can
as well.
They are still very much
involved, Brad said, as Nancy and Craig still do plenty of the behind-the-scenes
work for the business.
Craig first got the idea for
the business when he got
tired of working for somebody else.
With some good customers
in hand from his prior work
in the industry, he set off.
Thats really what makes
your business is the customers, he said.
The company today performs both residential and
commercial work, as well as
septic system work, around
Dane County. Earlier this
month, Brad and some
employees began with work
in a Verona housing development before moving over to a
major commercial development in the same city.
Some of the companys first jobs included the
Stoughton Trailers property
and Vennevoll.
Since those days in
the 1970s, not much has
changed, other than the
upgrades in equipment
which come with an uptick
in cost, Craig noted.
We pretty much do the
same thing weve always
done, he said.

Something was going around at Stoughton

High School because six players didnt ride the
bus to Oregon due to illness in a loss Thursday,
head boys soccer coach Dave Wermuth said.
But many of the players were back Tuesday as
the Vikings welcomed the Monroe Cheesemakers
for their second Badger South match.
Stoughton responded with a 3-0 win to improve
to 1-1 in the conference.
Even though it was a loss against Oregon, we
learned that we are a whole team and that people
can step into that spot when people are hurt and
sick and still play good soccer, Wermuth said.
Tonight, we showed that with everybody playing, we are a really strong soccer team.
Senior Cole Adams, senior Ben Johnson and
junior Anders Goetz all scored goals in the win.
Junior Jake Deutsch picked up an assist on the
Goetz goal.
Junior goalie Matt Read finished with seven
saves. All of Stoughtons goals came in the first
half.

Football: Monona Grove up next with a chance to clinch a spot in the playoffs
I knew we were only going to run
it if we had the ball spotted on the
left hash. I got outside and just ran
as fast as I could.
I trusted our line. Edgewood
moved an extra defender over to the
other side of the line, so I knew I
only had one man to beat.
Schipper, who set up McHones
touchdown with a 57-yard run, left
the game with 2:32 remaining and
was taken to a local hospital with a
shoulder injury.
We dont know for sure what
the extent of the it is, but this is
great, closeknit group of guys, and
its their teammate, Prahl said.
Obviously, the guys care and were
worried, but Im sure Schipper is
going to be alright. And its next
man up.
Edgewood wasnt about to pack
it up and go home down 15 points
though, and fought back to within
a touchdown and a 2-point conversion on 4-yard touchdown pass
from Will Swita to Edwin Henderson.
The Vikings recovered the ensuing onside kick, however, and were
able to run out the clock for the victory.
Despite the final score, Stoughtons offense struggled to find much
rhythm throughout the game, racking up 13 penalties for 117 yards.
It seemed like every time wed
hit a play wed take a couple of
steps backwards, McHone said.
We definitely have things we can
clean up.
Stoughton senior offensive lineman Elijah Krumholz was a road

grater upfront, opening holes and
finishing blocks all night.
Elijah loves playing defensive
line, but we asked him to just play
on offense this year, Prahl said.
Hes fun to watch and has really
helped us. Him, Aodan Marshall
next to him, Matthew Krcma, Jeffery Bowser and Jake Nelson
thats a great group of guys up front
and theyve all been getting better
each week.
Stoughton quarterback Jonathan Malueg completed four of 15
passes for 45 yards, nearly half of
which came on a 22-yard reception by junior tight end Tommy
McClain.
Edgewoods Swita hit on 10 of
26 passes for 132 yards, including 91 yards to Chris Darcy, who
hauled in 13 balls.
Senior running back Bryce Ternus started for the Crusaders with
a 23-yard rushing touchdown and
a 63-yard pick six in the second
quarter that pulled the Crusaders
within two points at 15-13, before
halftime.
He finished the game with 118
yards rushing on 19 carries to go
along with a pair of first half interceptions.
Stoughton improved to 4-1 overall and 2-0 in the Badger South
Conference with the win, while
Edgewood fell to 2-3, 1-2.
The Vikings host five-time
defending conference champion
Monona Grove at 7p.m. Friday.
Beating Edgewood was definitely a step in the right direction

for our program, McHone said.
In order to beat MG next week, I
think we have to stay focused and
just believe in ourselves.
The Vikings can guarantee themselves a .500 conference record
and a playoff spot with a win in
that game.
The playoffs are going to be in

the back of your mind, but we cant
we think about that, Prahl said.
Were shifting gears to focus on a
completely different offense now.
Weve got a great team coming
here and Im sure well get their
best shot.
Schipper is expected to be a
game-time decision against the Silver Eagles.
Monroe is the only other undefeated team in conference play.
The Cheesemakers (5-0, 3-0) are
coming off a 42-18 win over Milton.

Sports editor
Sisters Ashley and Haley

Foss each won a varsity event for the Stoughton girls swimming team
Tuesday at Monona Grove
High School, while junior
Maddie Kooima earned two
titles and Sophia Thompson added another for the
Vikings.
Stoughton lost by nearly
identical varsity and junior
varsity scorers, falling 10862 as a varsity team and
107-60 as a JV squad.
Kooima dominated the
100 breaststroke by more
than four-and-a-half seconds to win the event in
a lifetime best 1 minute,
02.74 seconds following
a more than 10 second 1-2
finish by Kooima over Ashley Foss in the 200 free
with a time of 2:06.94.
It took a 1:02.48 to
qualify for the Division
2 state meet last year, so
the 1:02 was super special
for Maddie tonight, head
coach Katie Talmadge said.
She still has more to give
though, we havent seen her
best yet.
Ashley Foss took care
of business in the 500 free,
posting a time of 6:02.74,
while Haley Foss captured
the 100 butterfly by a little less than three seconds,
posting a meet-best time of
1:11.78.
Thompson added the
Vikings other victory in
the 200 IM, touching our
MG with a time of 2:34.43.
Milton Invitational
Stoughton traveled south
to the Milton Invitational
where they finished a program-best second overall

out of eight teams with 169
points.
The girls were very
excited to bring home a runner-up trophy for Stoughton, Talmadge said.
Even though the team
brought home second place,
it wasnt their best meet of
the season.
Weve been averaging
50-68 percent best times
every meet, but this weekend we only were able to
come home with 37 percent
best times, Talmadge said.
We should definitely be
proud of how we competed,
but the true measure of our
growth as a program lies in
our self-improvement.
The host Milton Red
Hawks dominated the meet
by nearly 140 points
recording 306 points. Jefferson-Cambridge (156)
rounded out the top three
schools behind Stoughton.
Kooima turned in a personal best in the 100-yard
backstroke once again, finishing second in 1:03.34.
She also took second place
in the 500 free in 5:42.23.
Ashley Foss (6:06.14)
and Audrey Killian (6:07.7)
added a third- and fourthplace finish in the 500 free.
Ashley was joined by
here sister Haley, Thompson and Kooima on the 400
free relay, clocking a runner-up 4:05.18 for second
place.
Jessica Merzenich was
named the teams swimmer of the meet for her five
second time drop in her
100 breaststroke, her positive attitude and dedication
to her swimming and the
team, Talmadge said.

that partnership only lasted for one
tournament before the team of Halverson and Johnson was put together.

to segregate staff and student parking at Stoughton

Pictured from left are school board candidates Nicole Wiessinger, Frank Sullivan, Joe Patterson and Patrick OConnor.
Candidates: Wiessinger will serve out last months of term, up for re-election in April
the University of South Dakota.
In a letter to board members, she
cited K-12 teaching experience,
including teaching middle school science in New Orleans.
When she moved to Wisconsin,
Wiessinger was appointed to the state
Science Leadership Team by state
Superintendent Tony Evers to review
the Next Generation Science Standards. She also serves as an associate director of special initiatives
for NASAs Wisconsin Space Grant
Consortium and serves on that bodys
executive board.
Wiessinger said there are a lot of
strengths in the district, including
the Fab Lab, vocal programs, graduation rates and ACT scores. She said
challenges the district faces include
low enrollment and budget deficits.
During a five-minute closing argument, Wiessinger told board members she is a good team member
who is open-minded when trying to
find solutions to problems.
I will respect your opinion, even
if I disagree with you, she said. I
make informed, research-based decisions, and I look at all sides of an
issue, and I think thats important for
a board member.
Frank Sullivan
Sullivan was elected to fill out a
two-year term in 2013, but he said
Monday a health issue that required
surgery prevented him for running for
re-election last year.
He said his family has been in district since 1999, with the youngest of
four children now in middle school.
An assistant attorney general with
the Wisconsin Department of Justice,
Sullivan said two things persuaded
him to run for the board again being
asked to coach the SHS mock trial team and hearing his adopted son,
who is Asian, called a racist name at a
middle school event. He said while he
was pleased with the response taken
by school administrators, it reminded
him how far we have to go in dealing with racism.
We are seeing an increase in all
students in Stoughton who are not
white, he said. (They) are members of the community who belong
here, but they are not having the same
experiences at schools that white kids
are having.
Sullivan said from what he hears
School boards
questions for candidates
If you have a strong school district,

youll have a strong community.
Nicole Wiessinger, new school board member
around the region, Stoughtons longterm reputation is one of not being a

solid school district, which he disagrees with.
We are tagged as one of the districts where if youve got a really
bright kid yeah, maybe Middleton would be better for you, he said.
Its wrong, and it doesnt match up
with the numbers or what kids experience. This is a good place to send
kids. Our graduation rate is great, we
have great facilities here.
The district faces some pretty big
challenges in the future, Sullivan
said, citing funding and declining
enrollment.
We are going to have to outgrow
the (last) referendum soon, and we
are going to have to decide what
were going to do about that, he said.
What kind of district do we want to
be?
Patrick OConnor
OConnor was raised in Stoughton, and the SHS graduate served
in the Marine Corps for 16 years
before returning to the area to attend
UW-Platteville.
He said now that his son an
eighth-grader at River Bluff Middle
School is older, he wanted to get
back to serve the community in
some capacity.
I enjoy Stoughton, I enjoy the
Stoughton school district and Ive
been very impressed by my sons education here, he said.
OConnor is a deputy service officer for Rock County, and advocates
for veterans and their families in that
role, something he said he would be
able to do for the district.
I feel strongly about public education, he said. We have an obligation
to ensure the students in this district
get the best education possible.
In his letter to the board, OConnor said when he volunteered at the
schools, he saw firsthand the dedication and professionalism that the
teachers and staff show on a daily
basis.
Ive been very pleased with what
Ive seen from the schools, he said.

OConnor said the school district
will continue to face challenges
but that he has the drive and determination to understand challenges and
find ways to work through them.
I have no doubt in my mind this
is a great place to send kids, he said.
This is a great school district, filled
with great teachers and staff. Citizens
are very supportive of the schools
they understand this is an investment
for the future.
Joe Patterson
Patterson, a bureau director of publishing and distribution with the state
Department of Administration, said
he has quite of bit of experience
with financial matters that would help
him as a school board member.
A lot of the professional duties I
have now are good parallels, as far as
decision-making, finite resources you
have to budget for, being able to talk
to peers, talk to experts, research and
come to a decision, he said.
Patterson, who has two young
daughters who are not yet in school,
said he talked to former long-time
board member Liz Menzer about what
it takes to be on the board.
It seemed like an opportune time
to come in and see what the boards
about, he said. This seems like a
fantastic position for me to get a toe
in.
Patterson, who said he has interviewed hundreds of people for his
job over the years, added that he had
a chance to chat with the other three
candidates for the school board while
the others were being interviewed. He
said he came away impressed.
As a citizen of this district, you
could pick any of the four, and you
would get a good person for the
board, he said. All seemed like
good, genuine people who have education on their mind.
What do you believe the purpose of public education is,

and why is it important to our community?
What do you perceive the roles of the superintendent,
the board of education and the individual members of the
board to be?
What are some qualities of an effective board member,
and how have you exemplified these in previous experiences? What are some things a board member should
not do?
How is the Stoughton Area School District doing with
communication to key stakeholders and what role as a
board member do you see yourself having in effectuating
good communication?
Do you believe the Stoughton Area School District could
be doing more to significantly improve the educational
quality and if so, what would we be doing and why?
What board priorities should guide the boards action
as fiscal pressures impact our facilities, staffing and programming?
How would you like to see people describe our district?
If a family is thinking of moving to Stoughton and wants to
move to the district, how do you respond?
How can the district maintain a skilled workforce? What
should we do as a district to retain a skilled workforce?
