schooling, she talked to the Observer

It all started in September, when she
arrived, hosted by Carol and Arnold

lots of trips, including some that gave
her a chance to do winter sports

Operation Playground Power at BKE

Brooklyn PTO raising
money for new equipment
SCOTT DE LARUELLE
Unified Newspaper Group
When current students moms
and dads tell you they used the
same playground equipment when
they were kids, its probably time
for an upgrade.
Thats the idea behind the
Brooklyn PTOs fundraising cam-
paign for new equipment nick-
named Operation Playground
Power.
The goal is to raise $75,000
to update the school playground
with safe, modern, and acces-
sible play structures that can
be enjoyed by everyone in the
Brooklyn and Oregon communi-
ties, said Brooklyn PTO presi-
dent Erika Mundinger. The PTO
started fundraising for the project
a few months ago and already has
raised more than $20,000.
She noted that around 500 stu-
dents use the playground when
school is in session and others use
it outside school hours.
Brooklyn is a really special
community, and the playground
and the school are kind of a cen-
ter of the community, so its not
just for the school, she told the
Observer on Monday. Theres
usually someone playing on the
playground.
Mundinger said PTO members
started talking about the idea at
the end of last year, and decided it
was a worthwhile though large
project to take on. With the
groups emphasis on getting kids
Brooklyn PTO members set up this information booth at the Firefly to let people know about a $70,000 fund-
raising campaign to purchase new playground equipment for Brooklyn Elementary.
more active and healthy, she said
it seemed like a good fit.
The schools motto is healthy,
active kids are the best learners,
she said. Of course, kids can run
outside and play, but were doing
a lot of work to offer healthy
options, were trying to support
healthy kids and updating the
playground fit right into that ini-
tiative. We want to give them a
great space to do that.
Mundinger said the current
playground which has had piec-
es installed at various times is
mainly more than 20 years old.
Weve had people come to our
events, parents of kids that say,
Oh, I played on that when I was
here, Mundinger said.
The group is working with a
company called Lee Recreation
on purchasing new equipment,
though which set depends on how
much is raised.
Its nice, its new, its stable,
Mundinger said of the planned
model. It will offer some items
for kids who have accessibili-
ty issues, so that was something
that was really important to us, as
well.

This week, the group is sending
out letters to area businesses seek-
ing support, and is kicking off a
new effort, where people, busi-
nesses or organizations can pur-
chase sponsorship bricks that will
go in the new-look playground.
People can just make dona-
tions of any amount they want,
Mundinger said. Everything is
tax-deductible.
When the group has raised
the $75,000, the project will go
ahead, with Lee Recreation bring-
ing in heavy equipment to get
things into place, and a growing

team of volunteers who will put
everything together.
Its a cool community build,
she said. We have a great group
of volunteers who will make sure
everything is put in properly.
While Mundinger hopes every-
thing will fall into place before
the new school year begins in
September, she said it all depends
on the donations.
In an ideal world, wed have
the playground in before the kids
come back to school, but for sure
I would hope within the next
year, she said. The earlier, the
better, in my mind.

Letters to the editor policy

Unified Newspaper Group
is proud to offer a venue for
public debate and welcomes
letters to the editor, provided
they comply with our guide-
lines.
Letters should be no longer
than 400 words. They should
also contain contact informa-
tion the writers full name,
address, and phone number
so that the paper may con-
firm authorship. Unsigned or
anonymous letters will not
be printed under any circum-
stances.
The editorial staff of Uni-
fied Newspaper Group
reserves the right to edit let-
ters for length, clarity and
appropriateness. Letters with
libelous or obscene content
will not be printed.
Unified Newspaper Group
generally only accepts letters
from writers with ties to our
circulation area.
Letters to the editor should
be of general public interest.
Letters that are strictly per-
sonal lost pets, for example
will not be printed. Letters
that recount personal expe-
riences, good or bad, with
individual businesses will not
be printed unless there is an
overwhelming and compel-
ling public interest to do so.
Letters that urge readers to
patronize specific businesses
or specific religious faiths will
not be printed, either. Thank-
you letters can be printed
under limited circumstances,
provided they do not contain
material that should instead
be placed as an advertisement
and reflect public, rather than
promotional interests.

encourages lively pub-
lic debate on issues, but it
reserves the right to lim-
it the number of exchanges
between individual letter writ-
ers to ensure all writers have
a chance to have their voices

When families from Brooklyn say
theyre going to the library, they might not
mean a building.
Every Thursday evening, about 30 peo-
ple walk, bike or drive to the gazebo near
Commercial and Hotel streets to visit The
Bookmobile. The library on wheels travels
to communities throughout Dane Coun-
ty so people can check out books, maga-
zines, graphic novels, CDs and DVDs.
Dane County Library Service outreach
librarian Mary Driscoll said its more than
just a place to get books.
Its a wonderful community thing, she
said. Its a nice way to come together and
meet neighbors.

know theres a craft going on that day.
Its like the Bat-Signal, Driscoll joked.
Last Thursday, kids decorated hats under
the gazebo and then climbed the steps into
the bus and browse the shelves to pick out
their next read.
Even though there are thousands of
materials in the bus available to be checked
out, they only represent about 5 percent of
the librarys inventory, said librarian John
Nondorf. But most of the items are newer,
including magazines that can hit the stands
immediately unlike at other libraries, said
The Bookmobile driver and substitute
librarian Peter Cupery.
The Bookmobile comes year-round, but
it offers more activities during the sum-
mer for its Build a Better World-themed
youth and adult reading programs that run
from the second week of June through the
last week in August. Each person can set
their own goal and earn prizes, Driscoll
said.
Craft activities will be offered June 29,
July 6, 13 and 20, and there will be a Zoo-
zort live animal show on July 27. For those
who need accommodations to attend the
programs, call 266-4419 at least two weeks

Girls basketball
Wamsley
returns to
Oregon as
head coach
The newest Ore -
gon High School
girls basketball pro-
gram knows his way
around Oregon.
A d a m Wa m s l e y,
who had assisted
with the boys pro-
Wamsley gram five years ago,
was hired to succeed
Corey Sielaff on May
22. He is taking over
a program that went 50-44 and won
a conference title with Sielaff at the
helm.
Wamsley left Oregon after six
years as an assistant here to become
head coach for the girls basketball
team at Albany High School, where
Photos by Anthony Iozzo he compiled a 17-76 record over
four seasons.
Throughout the search, Adam
was a very impressive candidate,
athletic director Mike Carr wrote in
a news release this week. He is a
very effective communicator with
head coaching experience. Having
coached with the boys program for
a number of years, we were very
familiar with his skill set and pas-
sion for the game.
Wamsley has 13 years of experi-
ence in all, having also coached at
Iowa Grant, Shullsburg and Wauna-
kee.
Wamsley did not return repeat-
ed calls this month seeking com-
ment on his hire. But he said in the
release he is excited to return to
coaching at Oregon and that suc-
cess will take care of itself.
I really enjoyed my time there
previously and cant wait to lead
the girls program, he said. I
expect our players to excel in the
classroom, on the court and within
the community.
Wamsley was a video coordina-
tor for the UWMadison womens
basketball team during the 201213
season and worked for the UW ath-
letic department for six years.
He is a business education teach-
er in the Albany School District and

Chatchanun Nancy Suriyaammaranon (middle) stands with members of the UW Talent

won a $24,000 scholarship to UW-Madison after scoring a 100 percent on the University
of Wisconsin Math Talent Search.

Its unlikely any OHS
student in the near future
will match the success
Suriyaammaranon enjoyed
this year. She said her math
skills all started at an early
age, when her parents got
her started playing math
games at the age of 3.
They (taught) me to
play games like match the
same number, and I learned
how to count and say the
numbers, she said.
Shes certainly come a
long way since then. In
fact, OHS math teach-
er Dave Ebert said it was
c l e a r r i g h t aw a y h ow
advanced Suriyaamma-
ranons math skills were
when school started.
She was initially placed
into Advanced Placement
calculus, where the teacher
recognized her abilities and
introduced her to Ebert,
with the hope I could
challenge her through our
Math Club, noting her
advanced skills.
In her country, there
are 13 levels of advanced
mathematical work
required to qualify for the
national mathematics team,
and she achieved level 12
during the previous year,
he wrote the Observer in an
email. Nancy is an amaz-
ing mathematician, and
we were blessed to have
her join us at Oregon High
School this year.
After she switched to the
most advanced math class
at OHS, Ebert said she
grasped the new material
quickly. To keep her chal-
lenged, he gave her prob-
lems to solve from the Uni-
versity of Wisconsin Math
Talent Search, the Wiscon-
sin Mathematics Council
State Math Competition
and the American Regions
Mathematics League.
The hard work paid off
both for Suriyaammaranon
and for the math team, as
she ended up being the star
of the team that captured
the state championship.
She also was the top point
scorer in the OHS math-
ematics competition, was
first-team all-state on the
Wisconsin Mathematics
Council State Mathemat-
ics Competition and scored
100 percent on the Uni-
versity of Wisconsin Math
Talent Search.
For that, she was invited
to participate in the UW
Math Talent Search compe-
tition, where she received
the highest score and was
awarded the $24,000 Van
Vleck Scholarship to attend

UW-Madison. Suriyaam-
maranon also competed
in the American Region-
al Mathematics League
in Iowa, and qualified for
advanced rounds in that
competition. Earlier this
month, she was the state
champion in the Trig Star
competition, and the only
one to have a perfect score,
which surprised her a bit.
Its kind of new for me,
but I asked Mr. Ebert how
to do this test, and he gave
me examples when I asked
him to teach me, she said.
Its not something I nor-
mally do, but I did it. When
I reach a goal, I feel happy
and proud.
Ebert said not only did
Suriyaammaranon excel
in some very high-lev-
el mathematics competi-
tions, but she also assisted
her classmates in her AP
Calculus class.
One of her peers told me
that she helped him under-
stand a concept because
she could explain it using
student-friendly language,
he said. I know Nancy has
outstanding potential, and
I look forward to learning
how she uses her mathemat-
ical ability in the future.

Educational Information
The sources of drinking water, both tap water and bottled water, include rivers,
lakes, streams, ponds, reservoirs, springs and wells. As water travels over the sur-
face of the land or through the ground, it dissolves naturally occurring minerals and,
in some cases, radioactive material, and can pick up substances resulting from the
presence of animals or from human activity.
Contaminants that may be present in source water include:
* Microbial contaminants, such as viruses and bacteria, which may come from
sewage treatment plants, septic systems, agricultural livestock operations and wildlife.
* Inorganic contaminants such as salts and metals, which can be naturally- oc-
curring or result from urban stormwater runoff, industrial or domestic wastewater
discharges, oil and gas production, mining or farming.
* Pesticides and herbicides, which may come from a variety of sources such as
agriculture, urban stormwater runoff and residential uses.
* Organic chemical contaminants, including synthetic and volatile organic
chemicals, which are by-products of industrial processes and petroleum production,
and can also come from gas stations, urban stormwater runoff, and septic systems.
* Radioactive contaminants, which can be naturally occurring or be the result of
oil and gas production and mining activities.
In order to ensure that tap water is safe to drink, EPA prescribes regulations that
limit the amount of certain contaminants in water provided by public water systems.
FDA regulations establish limits for contaminants in bottled water, which shall pro-
vide the same protection for public health.
Definitions
Term Definition
AL Action Level: The concentration of a contaminant which, if exceeded,
triggers treatment or other requirements which a water system must follow.
Level 1
Assessment A Level 1 assessment is a study of the water system to identify
potential problems and determine, if possible, why total coliform
bacteria have been found in our water system.
Level 2
Assessment A Level 2 assessment is a very detailed study of the water system to
identify potential problems and determine, if possible, why an E. coli
MCL violation has occurred or why total coliform bacteria have been
found in our water system, or both, on multiple occasions.
MCL Maximum Contaminant Level: The highest level of a contaminant that
is allowed in drinking water. MCLs are set as close to the MCLGs as
feasible using the best available treatment technology.
MCLG Maximum Contaminant Level Goal: The level of a contaminant in
drinking water below which there is no known or expected risk to
health. MCLGs allow for a margin of safety.
MFL million fibers per liter
MRDL Maximum residual disinfectant level: The highest level of a
disinfectant allowed in drinking water. There is convincing evidence
that addition of a disinfectant is necessary for control of microbial
contaminants.
MRDLG Maximum residual disinfectant level goal: The level of a drinking
water disinfectant below which there is no known or expected risk to
health. MRDLGs do not reflect the benefits of the use of disinfectants
to control microbial contaminants.
mrem/year millirems per year (a measure of radiation absorbed by the body)
NTU Nephelometric Turbidity Units
pCi/l picocuries per liter (a measure of radioactivity)
ppm parts per million, or milligrams per liter (mg/l)
ppb parts per billion, or micrograms per liter (ug/l)
ppt parts per trillion, or nanograms per liter
ppq parts per quadrillion, or picograms per liter
TCR Total Coliform Rule
TT Treatment Technique: A required process intended to reduce the
level of a contaminant in drinking water.
Detected Contaminants
Your water was tested for many contaminants last year. We are allowed to mon-
itor for some contaminants less frequently than once a year. The following tables list
only those contaminants which were detected in your water. If a contaminant was
detected last year, it will appear in the following tables without a sample date. If the
contaminant was not monitored last year, but was detected within the last 5 years, it
will appear in the tables below along with the sample date.

Status
Active
Unregulated Contaminants
Unregulated contaminants are those for which EPA has not established drinking
water standards. The purpose of unregulated contaminant monitoring is to assist
Active EPA in determining the occurrence of unregulated contaminants in drinking water
Active and whether future regulation is warranted. EPA required us to participate in this
monitoring.
No unregulated contaminants are present.
Health Effects For Any Contaminants With MCL Violations/Action Level
Exceedances
Contaminant Health Effects
LEAD Infants and children who drink water containing lead in excess of
the action level could experience delays in their physical or mental
development. Children could show slight deficits in attention span
and learning abilities. Adults who drink this water over many years
could develop kidney problems or high blood pressure.
Additional Health Information
If present, elevated levels of lead can cause serious health problems, especially
for pregnant women and young children. Lead in drinking water is primarily from
materials and components associated with service lines and home plumbing. Ore-
gon Waterworks is responsible for providing high quality drinking water, but cannot
control the variety of materials used in plumbing components. When your water has
been sitting for several hours, you can minimize the potential for lead exposure by
flushing your tap for 30 seconds to 2 minutes before using water for drinking or
cooking. If you are concerned about lead in your water, you may wish to have your
water tested. Information on lead in drinking water, testing methods, and steps you
can take to minimize exposure is available from the Safe Drinking Water Hotline or
at www.epa.gov/lead.
Presence of Other Contaminants

Other Compliance
Violation of the Terms of a Variance, Exemption, or Administrative or Judicial
Order

Noncompliance with Recordkeeping and Compliance Data
None
Additional Information
Lawn Irrigation Reminder
Many newer homes are being installed with underground sprinkler systems.
These systems, when operated correctly can efficiently use water. Sprinkler systems
can also be a significant waste of water if sprinklers are allowed to run excessively or
if watering continues during wet periods. Also, watering should be done early in the
morning or later in the evening to reduce the amount of evaporation. Typical lawns
require approximately 1-inch of irrigation per week during hot/dry periods.
Water Hardness
Throughout Oregon and South-Central Wisconsin, we experience relatively
hard water. The hardness of the Village of Oregon is about 18.25 grains which is
equivalent to 331 ppm. Water hardness is a measure of the amount of calcium and
magnesium minerals in the water. Hard wa ter can cause mineral buildup on
water fixtures, shower heads, toilets, etc. Water from the Village of Oregon system
responds well to home water softening devices. It is recommended that you check
your water softener regularly and have it evaluated if you notice any problems.
If You Have Water Problems
Our water system operators and public works staff are here to maintain and
operate your municipal water system. We also rely on our residents to be our eyes
and ears to help report problems you may experience. Be sure to contact the Village
of Oregon Utility if:
* Your water pressure is low,
* Your water is discolored after running the tap for 15-30 seconds,
* You notice water coming out of the ground or running down the street,
* You are concerned with water quality or have questions concerning your water
service lateral.
If you experience high water usage which you believe is in error, please contact
public works and we can check your homes plumbing for leaks or faulty fixtures or
evaluate your water meter.
If you experience a water problem on weekdays between 7:00 a.m. and 3:30 p.m.,
call (608) 835 6294. If you experience a water problem on weekends or after hours,
please contact the non-emergency police dispatcher at 835-3111. The dispatcher will
contact a utility employee to check the problem.
Conclusion
Thank you for allowing us to serve you with clean, safe, affordable water. We are
continuing to make improvements to the safety and operation of our system. Please
help us by always keeping fire hydrants clear of snow and vegetation and maintain
anti-siphon devices on all hose connections.
At the Village of Oregon, we are constantly working to provide top quality wa-
ter to our customers. Please help us maintain the high quality of our groundwater
through proper disposal of chemicals, medicines, waste oil, or other items which
can affect our groundwater. Thank you for taking time to read this report and please
contact our office if you have any questions or comments.
