Come and join “Mum & Me”, Bonnie Brunner will be
giving a demonstration on soap making. She will have
her “soaps” there for you to look at and purchase.
Plus, we will have recipes for different types of soaps
and hygiene products. Then there will be a discussion
on how your skin changes with age. It becomes
thinner, loses fat, and no longer looks as plump and
smooth as it once did. Your veins and bones can be
seen more easily. Scratches, cuts, or bumps can take
longer to heal. Years of sun tanning or being out in the
sunlight for a long time may lead to wrinkles, dryness,
age spots, and even cancer. Find out what you can do
to protect your skin and to make it feel and look
better.
Cost is $3.00 for non-HCE members.
This two part workshop, one evening, workshop will
discuss why it is still beneficial to recycle and
upcycling. Upcycling is the reuse of discarded objects
or materials in such a way as to create a product of a
higher quality or value than the original.

SHAWANO COMMUNITY MIDDLE SCHOOL PROJECT
On November 4 the voters
in the Shawano School
District
overwhelmingly
supported the referendum
to renovate the middle
school. This project includes the replacement of the
entire heating and air system as well as needed updates
and repairs to selected areas of the building. The staff
and students are very excited about this!
The project is already under way with the architects
working to complete the very detailed drawings and
plans that are required to proceed with construction. The
timeline for construction to begin includes having all of
the sub-contractors and trades selected by March with
the actual working beginning around April 1. It will be a
busy summer at the middle school as all of the work is to
be completed by the start of the 2016-2017 school year.
Once complete, the building will be much more
comfortable and better able to meet the needs of
student instruction, allow for better access to those with
disabilities, provide more efficient use of spaces, and
improve the safety of all that use the building.
Community members that use the building for the many
different recreation and educational activities held in the
evenings will benefit from this project as well.
The heating and cooling of the building will be much
improved. Access to the Community Education Office will
have its own entrance. Sound dampening panels in the
small gym and a makeover in the large gym will create a
nicer space for sports activities.
I am excited to be a part of this project and look forward
to when we can unveil the results to the public.

Director of Building and Grounds

Grounds, if you would like to see the full-size plan.
