This event is presented in correlation with the state-wide Summer Reading Program theme, “One World, Many Stories.” Every year, the Summer Reading Program at area libraries provides incentives for kids to keep their reading skills sharp while away from school. “Without a doubt, library programs are among my favorite shows to create and perform,” said Mr. Billy. “Year after year, I work to deliver summer reading presentations and new songs that excite and delight while bringing kids and families together to experience the joys of reading.” “Rockin’ All Over the World” is sponsored by the Lakes Country Library and the Nicolet Federated Library System. It is geared toward all ages. The program will incorporate music, songs, dancing and fun.

Crandon Parks and Recreation Program Kicks Off The Crandon Parks and Recreation summer program officially kicked off on Tuesday, July 5, 2011. This year 75 kids, ranging from ages five through twelve, are enrolled in the program. Participants receive breakfast and lunch, and take part in a variety of activities including arts and crafts, field trips and visits to the City Beach. The program runs each Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday through the month of July. "This year, the kids will be traveling to the water park in Weston, the Lumberjack Show in Minocqua and the Antigo Aquatics Center," said Program Coordinator Anna Gumm. "There will also be plenty of activities happening locally, as our area has so much to offer." Facing considerable financial constraints due to cuts in state and local funding, program leaders reached out to the Forest County Potawatomi Community last year to see if the Tribe could help make the program possible for summer 2011. The Tribe answered the call with a $5,000 donation, which program leaders say accounts for over 25% of the budget. "The Forest County Potawatomi Community recognizes the many opportunities the Crandon Parks and Rec program offers our youth and we are pleased to support it," said Vice-Chairman James Crawford. "Summer in the northwoods is meant for spending time outdoors with other kids and this program allows them to do just that." "We're appreciative of the Tribe for their donation," said Program Director Chuck Sekel. "At a time of declining state support, I'm pleased we can work with the Forest County Potawatomi Community to make programs like the Crandon Parks and Rec happen." Friends of the Library Donate Funds in Crandon Joan Hagens, treasurer for the Friends of the Crandon Library, recently presented a $1,000 check to Michelle Gobert, Director of the Crandon Public Library. The donation of the funds was approved at the June 6th meeting of the Friends of the Library. The members present at the meeting voted to donate the funds after the success of their last book sale was discussed. Library Director Michelle Gobert said the funds will be used for new fiction materials to supplement the new book shelves during the summer months, which are the library's busiest time of the year. According to Michelle Gobert each of the new titles will be marked with a bookplate highlighting the donation. "The addition of the bookplate allows those patrons reading the titles to be more aware of the Friends of the Library's fundraising activities." Michelle expects the Friends books to be on the shelves beginning in late July and/or early August. Interested in joining the Friends of the Crandon Public Library? Applications are available on the Library's website at www.crandonpl.org There will be a grand time for country music lovers at Mole Lake from August 5th Mole Lake to the 7th, when the Mole Lake Music Fest 2011 cuts lose on the casino grounds. will be live music on Friday evening from 5:00 p.m. until 1:00 a.m., Music Fest 2011 SaturdayThere from noon till 1:00 a.m. and Sunday from noon until 10:00 p.m. Needless to say, there will be plenty of cold beer, some great food stands, and some novelty stands.

Each year in the United States, 76 million people become ill from a foodborne illness and 5,000 people die. Would this many people eat something if they thought it tasted, looked or smelled bad? Even if tasting would tell...a “tiny taste” may not protect you. As few as 10 bacteria could cause some food borne illnesses, such as E. coli. It can take 1/2 hour to 6 weeks to become sick from unsafe foods. You usually feel OK immediately after eating and become sick later. Some people think that the worst that could happen to you with a food borne illness is an upset stomach. You also can experience the following from a foodborne illness: vomiting, fever, diarrhea, dehydration. Less common, but possible severe conditions include: Meningitis, paralysis and death. Some people have a greater risk for food borne illnesses. A food you can safely eat might make others sick. People with a higher risk for food borne illnesses include: infants, pregnant women, young children and older adults and people with weakened immune systems and individuals with certain chronic diseases. If a hamburger is brown in the middle, is it cooked to a safe internal temperature? 1 out of 4 hamburgers turns brown before it has been cooked to a safe internal temperature. Research shows some ground beef patties look done at internal temperatures as low as 135°F. Food Thermometers and This Foods: When measuring the temperature of a thin food, such as a hamburger patty, pork chop, or chicken breast, an “instant-read” digital thermometer should be used, if possible. If using an “instant-read” dial thermometer, the probe must be inserted in the side of the food so the entire sensing area (usually 2-3 inches) is positioned through the center of the food. USDA Recommended Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures: • Steaks & Roasts - 145°F • Fish - 145°F • Pork - 160°F •Ground Beef - 160°F • Egg Dishes - 160°F • Chicken Breasts - 165°F • Whole Poultry - 165°F Remember, when in doubt...TOSS IT OUT!!!

Why there’s no need to bounce around hither and thither for entertainment because it’s all right here in cool waters, beautiful scenery, abundant wild life and a bit of luck in hunting and fishing season. However, mixing some pleasure with business took Marcia and I on some road trips and I’d like to tell you about them, especially since they were all done via automobile and an easy days travel with a stay over. A couple of favorite things lie in the Fox River Valley. Though we missed it this time, it’s always fun at the Packer Pro Shop & Rotunda. More serious, however, is Gillys (formerly Strohiems) frozen custard shop and in Oshkosh, right over the bridge on Hwy. 41, is the Two Brothers eatery where the food is great and very reasonable. Traveling along found us at the beautiful Brewers Stadium for an exciting baseball game between the Cincy Reds and the Brew Crew. I bumped into a fellow who had a couple of founders tickets (including “front row” parking) so our seats were four rows behind the catcher! Such fun! Along the way, we were able to get to Waukesha and Jennings Grotto on main street for a couple of Italian sausage sandwiches, so good I’m drooling over these writings right now. Always order with extra green peppers, this is to die for! In the Kettle Moraine Country there’s Hartford (my birthplace). Here is located the Wisconsin Auto Museum, featuring cars made in this great state. Formerly, it was the Kissel Kar Museum and that’s what brought me here. My Dad and his brother Ed were engineers on Kissels in the 20’s until they closed shop in the early 30’s. What a place to visit! Tuckers, of course has the largest display of Kissels in existence (about 12 cars), Nash, Hudson, Ramblers (all Wisconsin heritage) and more and more like the huge steam engines being restored. Of course, coming home, we had to stop for a half brick of real brick cheese in Theresa at Widmer’s Factory. Lomira caught us for a Saturday stop at the Catholic Church and then on home. So what else? Well, we’ll be at Wausau in a couple days for the Bull Falls Brewery Trod Jazz Fest and then up to Three Lakes on Sunday to catch Skip Wagner playing two trumpets at one time at the Oneida Village Inn, a good show they say....is this a great country or what?

Utility reconnections available to those in need during Heat Advisory Public Service Commission encourages consumers to call for assistance MADISON – In light of the National Weather Service’s excessive heat warning and the possibility of record high temperatures in Wisconsin, the Public Service Commission of Wisconsin (PSC) encourages people to take steps to stay safe by staying cool. Consumers can take simple steps that help keep temperatures lower and save energy: --Keep blinds and curtains closed --Unplug electronics like computers, televisions and radios when not in use --Make sure you air conditioner is clean and maintained by checking your air filters, air intakes, grilled and radiators are unblocked. --Turn off lights when leaving a room In addition, consumers need to be aware that Wisconsin law prevents a utility from disconnecting occupied dwelling units when a heat advisory, heat warning, or heat emergency issued by the National Weather Service is in effect. Also, a utility is required to make reasonable attempts to reconnect service to an occupied dwelling that has been disconnected for nonpayment when an occupant states that there is a potential threat to health or life that results from the combination of the heat and loss of service. The utility may require that an occupant produce a licensed physician's statement or notice from a public health, social service, or law enforcement official which identifies the medical emergency for the occupant. Upon expiration of the heat advisory, heat warning, or heat emergency, the utility may disconnect service to a property that was reconnected during this period without further notice if an appropriate payment arrangement has not been established.

As an SOA community partner, AAUW has, for many years, held their book sale during the same week as School of the Arts at Rhinelander. In the past, the sale has resided in the gymnasium of the James Williams Middle School. However, this year with renovations at the middle school still in progress, the available space at SOA's temporary 2011 location, Crescent Elementary School, is not sufficient to support the sale. The AAUW Used Book Sale is planned for 2012. If you have books you wish to donate, contact Diane Dei Rossi at 715-362-1756.

Duck & Goose Hunting meetings Hearings will also address possible changes to our duck hunting zones MADISON – Waterfowl hunters are reminded of upcoming public meetings and hearings on the 2011 duck and Canada goose hunting seasons. Department of Natural Resources wildlife staff will provide the latest information on the status of waterfowl and waterfowl management decisions in Wisconsin. State waterfowl hunting seasons are structured within an annual framework set by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. With the overall picture on the 2011 waterfowl breeding populations looking very promising, hunters can expect a liberal season framework in 2011, according to Kent Van Horn, state Migratory Game Bird Ecologist. Across the traditional survey area of the Dakotas, Canada and Alaska, total duck numbers were estimated at more than 45 million prior to breeding, which is a record high and 35 percent above the long-term average. Canada goose breeding conditions in northern Ontario, where about 50 percent of the Wisconsin harvest originates, were average. However, breeding bird counts were still relatively low in 2011 due to several previous years of poor production. In Wisconsin the resident Canada goose breeding population estimate was up 12 percent at 176,095 geese, so Van Horn says hunters can still expect an abundant goose population this fall. Seasons to be set by Natural Resources Board, Aug 10 The Natural Resources Board will set the 2011 season structure at its Aug. 10 meeting in Spring Green. At this time, the federal season framework has not been announced, but with excellent wetland conditions and record high continental duck numbers, waterfowl hunters will likely be seeing a liberal 60-day duck season with bag limits similar to 2010. The proposed season framework should be available on the DNR website on August 1. Comments also sought on duck zone change proposals "2011 is a very important year because we will be deciding the configuration of new duck hunting zones that will remain for the next five years,” Van Horn says. There are currently four options out for pubic comment: the current two zone structure; a three zone structure with the Mississippi River as the third zone with a split in the season; a three-zone structure with Lake Michigan as the third zone and a split season structure; or four zones without season splits. A split means there would be two separate hunting periods with a break in between. "We need to hear from duck hunters at these meetings as to what their preference for duck hunting zones and season dates," Van Horn says. “Although the Fish and Wildlife Service may delay these potential changes until 2012, we are continuing to request public input on this topic. We expect final word from the Service on July 29.” Citizens can attend one of several public hearings or submit comments through midnight on Aug. 4 to James Christopoulos, assistant migratory ecologist, PO Box 7921, Madison, WI 53707-7921; by phone at (608) 2 6 1 - 6 4 5 8 o r e m a i l t o [email protected].

Online condolences www.weberhillfuneralhome.com Homeless Cont. from pg. 1 She explains that teams of individuals will be in Rhinelander, Minocqua, Eagle River, Antigo, and other larger communities to locate individuals sleeping in public places. They have requested support from local law enforcement to help identify locations known to be shelters for homeless individuals. “This is just one step in the process of helping identify and assist individuals in crisis,” Brewster concludes. The collected data will assist the community in understanding the scope and size of local homelessness; engaging in programs and service development, and in applying for state and federal funding. This state wide count occurs twice a year, once in January and once in July. The Northern Wisconsin Initiative to Stop Homelessness (N*WISH) Continuum of Care was established in November, 2009. This collaborative system exists to increase awareness and acts to promote and support the eradication of homelessness in Forest, Langlade, Oneida and Vilas Counties. N*WISH is comprised of various state government & public housing agencies; non profit & faith based organizations as well as funding and advocacy groups.

Holperin Introduces DNR Secretary Bill State Senator Jim Holperin (D-Eagle River) introduced legislation recently (Senate Bill 119) to strip the Governor of the power to appoint the Department of Natural Resources (DNR) Secretary and award that authority to the Natural Resources Board. “Sportsmen and wildlife groups across the state along with the majority of Wisconsin citizens have expressed their support for this bill repeatedly, and it was approved by the legislature by wide margins last session, but vetoed,” Holperin said of the measure. “I realize the current Governor is antagonistic toward the idea as well, but we who support the legislation need to make sure it gets active consideration every single session. We can't give up,” he added. Holperin said it is widely acknowledged that while a Board-appointed DNR Secretary would not eliminate politics from the administration of fish, game and environmental laws in Wisconsin, the change would go a long way toward reducing such influence, which is why the change has enjoyed overwhelming popular support. “The public has expressed time and again its desire for an independent DNR Secretary who isn't beholden to a Governor of either party,” Holperin concluded. “That's why I've introduced Senate Bill 119 and I hope it will be given serious consideration this session.” SB 119 has been referred to the Senate Committee on Natural Resources and Environment, but has not been scheduled for a public hearing.

Intensive supervision program for repeat drunken drivers saves jail days Eleven counties have intensive supervision programs for repeat OWI offenders To break the cycle of repeat drunken driving through effective counseling, treatment and monitoring, pretrial intensive supervision programs (ISPs) operating in 11 Wisconsin counties have saved tens of thousands of jail days, according to an evaluation provided recently to the Legislature by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT). With a combination of state and local funding, pretrial intensive supervision programs get repeat drunken drivers into treatment as soon as possible after an operating while intoxicated (OWI) arrest and before conviction. Studies have shown that the effectiveness of alcohol intervention programs increases as the time between the arrest and intervention efforts decreases. To change the behavior of repeat OWI offenders, collaborative efforts among district attorneys, defense attorneys, judges, and law enforcement officials have designed pretrial intensive supervision programs that meet the needs and conditions of their county. The WisDOT annual evaluation of the counties’ program activities in 2010 included the following results: In 2010, 80 percent of the 3,813 drunk drivers participating in intensive supervision programs successfully completed their program, which typically includes: treatment for alcohol dependency or addiction, monitoring for sobriety, a Driver Safety Plan component and compliance with court appearances and payment of fines. From October 1, 2009 through September 30, 2010 (federal fiscal year 2010), counties with intensive supervision programs that reported totals saved 74,440 jail days. (Total jail days saved does not include information from all counties in the program). Wisconsin’s first pretrial intensive supervision program for repeat drunken drivers began in 1993 in Milwaukee County. Other counties that have implemented programs since the program began include: Kenosha and Marathon (1998); Waukesha (1999); Racine (2000); Portage and Sheboygan (2002); Price and Sawyer (2008); and Iowa and Washburn (2009). “The pretrial intoxicated driver intervention program continues to enjoy support from the Milwaukee County Court judges, who cite the program as one of the most important resources the courts have for dealing with repeat OWI offenders,” said Milwaukee County Chief Judge Jeffrey Kremers. “The court appreciates that pretrial supervision of clients results in better treatment compliance.” The 2010 WisDOT evaluation report on intensive supervision programs is available online at http://www.dot.wisconsin.gov/library/publications/topic/s afety.htm. 100 S.

Seventh Place A 49-year-old San Francisco stockbroker, who "totally zoned when he ran", accidentally, jogged off a 100foot high cliff on his daily run. Sixth Place While at the beach, Daniel Jones, 21, dug an 8 foot hole for protection from the wind and had been sitting in a beach chair at the bottom! When it collapsed, burying him beneath 5 feet of sand. People on the beach used their hands and shovels trying to get him out but could not reach him. It took rescue workers using heavy equipment almost an hour to free him. Jones was pronounced dead at a hospital. Fifth Place Santiago Alvarado, 24, was killed as he fell through the ceiling of a bicycle shop he was burglarizing. Death was caused when the long flashlight he had placed in his mouth to keep his hands free rammed into the base of his skull as he hit the floor. Fourth Place Sylvester Briddell, Jr., 26, was killed as he won a bet with friends who said he would not put a revolver loaded with four bullets into his mouth and pull the trigger. Third Place After stepping around a marked police patrol car parked at the front door, a man walked into H&J Leather & Firearms intent on robbing the store. The shop was full of customers and a uniformed officer was standing at the counter. Upon seeing the officer, the would-be robber announced a hold-up! and fired a few wild shots from a target pistol. The officer and a clerk promptly returned fire, and several customers also drew their guns and fired. The robber was pronounced dead at the scene by Paramedics. Crime scene investigators located 47 expended cartridge cases in the shop. The subsequent autopsy revealed 23 gunshot wounds. Ballistics identified rounds from seven different weapons. No one else was hurt. HONORABLE MENTION Paul Stiller, 47, and his wife Bonnie were bored just driving around at 2 A.M. so they lit a quarter stick of dynamite to toss out the window to see what would happen. Apparently they failed to notice the window was closed. RUNNER UP Kerry Bingham had been drinking with several friends when one of them said they knew a person who had bungee-jumped from a local bridge in the middle of traffic. The conversation grew more heated and at least 10 men trooped along the walkway of the bridge at 4:30 AM. Upon arrival at the midpoint of the bridge they discovered that no one had brought a bungee rope. Bingham, who had continued drinking, volunteered and pointed out that a coil of lineman's cable lay near by. They secured one end around Bingham's leg and then tied the other (!) to the bridge. His fall lasted 40 feet before the cable tightened and tore his foot off at the ankle. He miraculously survived his fall into the icy water and was rescued by two nearby fishermen. Bingham's foot was never located. AND THE WINNER IS... Zookeeper Friedrich Riesfeldt ( Paderborm, Germany) fed his constipated elephant 22 doses of animal laxative and more than a bushel of berries, figs and prunes before the plugged-up pachyderm finally got relief. Investigators say ill-fated Friedrich, 46, was attempting to give the ailing elephant an olive oil enema when the relieved beast unloaded. The sheer force of the elephant's unexpected defecation knocked Mr. Riesfeldt to the ground where he struck his head on a rock as the elephant continued to evacuate 200 pounds of dung on top of him. It seems to be just one of those freak accidents that proves... 'Shit happens' IT ALWAYS SEEMS IMPORTANT TO THANK THESE PEOPLE FOR REMOVING THEMSELVES FROM THE GENE POOL!

AT&T fired President John Walter after nine months, saying he lacked intellectual leadership. He received a $26 million severance package. Perhaps it's not Walter who's lacking intelligence. 2. WITH A LITTLE HELP FROM OUR FRIENDS Police in Oakland , CA spent two hours attempting to subdue a gunman who had barricaded himself inside his home. After firing ten tear gas canisters, officers discovered that the man was standing beside them in the police line, shouting, 'Please come out and give yourself up.' 3. WHAT WAS PLAN B? An Illinois man, pretending to have a gun, kidnapped a motorist and forced him to drive to two different automated teller machines, wherein the kidnapper proceeded to withdraw money from his own bank accounts. 4 THE GETAWAY! A man walked into a Topeka , Kansas Kwik Stop and asked for all the money in the cash drawer. Apparently, the take was too small, so he tied up the store clerk and worked the counter himself for three hours until police showed up and grabbed him. 5. DID I SAY THAT? Police in Los Angeles had good luck with a robbery suspect who just couldn't control himself during a lineup. When detectives asked each man in the lineup to repeat the words: 'Give me all your money or I'll shoot', the man shouted, 'that's not what I said!' 6. ARE WE COMMUNICATING? A man spoke frantically into the phone: 'My wife is pregnant and her contractions are only two minutes apart'. 'Is this her first child?' the Doctor asked. 'No!' the man shouted, 'This is her husband! 7. NOT THE SHARPEST TOOL IN THE SHED! In Modesto, CA , Steven Richard King was arrested for trying to hold up a Bank of America branch without a weapon. King used a thumb and a finger to simulate a gun. Unfortunately, he failed to keep his hand in his pocket.. (hellooooooo)! 8. THE GRAND FINALE! Last summer, down on Lake Isabella, located in the high desert, an hour east of Bakersfield, CA, some folks, new to boating, were having a problem. No matter how hard they tried, they couldn't get their brand new 22 foot boat, going. It was very sluggish in almost every maneuver, no matter how much power they applied. After about an hour of trying to make it go, they putted into a nearby marina, thinking someone there may be able to tell them what was wrong. A thorough topside check revealed everything in perfect working condition The engine ran fine, the out-drive went up and down, and the propeller was the correct size and pitch. So, one of the marina guys jumped in the water to check underneath. He came up choking on water, he was laughing so hard. NOW REMEMBER...THIS IS TRUE. Under the boat, still strapped securely in place, was the trailer!

CESA 8 Substitute Teacher Seminar Wednesday, August 24, 2011 School districts across the state are finding it increasingly difficult to hire and retain sufficient numbers of qualified substitute teachers. In an attempt to deal with this issue, Wisconsin enacted a rule allowing school districts to hire non-certified teacher substitutes. To be issued a permit, however, these individuals must hold a (four year) bachelor's degree, receive appropriate training, and be sponsored by a school district. CESA 8 Office is offering Substitute Teacher Training Seminar presented by Sherry Petersen and Sandy Mayernick, Department of Public Instruction (DPI) endorsed instructors and active substitute teachers. This one day, comprehensive program will be held on Wednesday, August 24, 2011 from 8:30 AM to 2:30 PM at the CESA 8 Office, 223 West Park Street, Gillett, WI 54124. The seminar will introduce you to the field of substitute teaching by covering the general expectations of a substitute teacher, pertinent information on health issues, successful discipline techniques, hints for working with students with special needs, along with many ideas, tips, and recommendations to acquaint you with this rewarding career. For further information about this training s e m i n a r , p l e a s e l o g o n t o http://www.cesa8.k12.wi.us/info/sub1011.htm for more information, or contact Betty at 920.855.2114 ext. 221. Registration deadline is August 17, 2011 or when the class is full. This program will fulfill DPI’s requirement of training for a person with a Bachelor’s Degree (but not a teaching degree) and will qualify you for a three-year short term substitute teacher permit. The cost of the seminar is $100.00, please register early - attendance is limited. One of the greatest blessings God can give us, is the gift of family and friends who care. Thank you for the calls, visits, cards, words of support and especially prayers before and after Jim's surgery. A special thanks to the doctors and nurses at St. Joseph's Hospital in Marshfield for the wonderful care Jim received. We are truly blessed to have the support of loving family and friends.

AGI HEALTHCARE OF CRANDON A Division of Arizconsin Group, Inc. People of all ages dress accordingly for the event Purslane - Not just a weed Information from Prairieland Community Supported Agriculture Think of it as a weed, and you'll be missing out on one of the most nutritious greens on the planet. Purslane has more beta-carotene than spinach*, as well as high levels of magnesium and potassium. Historically it has been used as a remedy for arthritis and inflammation by European cultures. Chinese herbalists found similar benefits, using it in respiratory and circulatory function. Recently, it's been found that purslane has alpha linolenic acid, a type of omega-3 fatty acid. Researchers see evidence that these substances lower blood pressure and cholesterol levels as well as make the blood less likely to form clots. And, purslane has only 15 calories per 100 g portion. World wide there are approximately 19 genera and approximately 500 species of purslane. The U.S. is home to 9 genera alone. It is most commonly found in the warm temperate regions of the northern hemisphere. Purslane exhibits the most species diversity in Western North America and South Africa, where it is likely to have originated. Part of the reason for its evolutionary success is that a single plant can produce up to 52,300 seeds. What's more, purslane seeds can survive for up to 30 years in undisturbed soil. Several ancient cultures have included purslane as a part of their cuisine, including those of Greece and Central America. Russians dry and can it for the winter. In Mexico it is called verdolaga and is a favorite comfort food. There, it is eaten in omelets, as a side dish, rolled in tortillas, or dropped by handfuls into soups and stews. Best if used fresh. But, if you must store it, wrap purslane in a moist paper towel and store in a plastic bag in the vegetable bin of your refrigerator. Wash. Remove larger stems. Some recipes use leaves only. Purslane can be substituted for spinach or wild greens in lasagnas, filled pastas, and Greek-style tarts.

Any fall turkey permits remaining after the initial drawing will go on sale beginning at noon on Saturday, August 27, and will be sold by zone until sold out or the season ends. 2011 Fall Season Dates: Fall Turkey: statewide Sept. 17 to Nov. 17; Nov. 28 to Dec. 31 in zones 1-5 ONLY Canada Geese, Horicon Zone: season dates are tentative and will not be set by the Natural Resources Board until August 10. Horicon Zone is proposed for Sept. 16 to Dec. 16 (first time period Sept. 16 through Oct. 30; second time period Oct. 31 through Dec. 16). Horicon Zone hunters are expected to receive six harvest tags for their time period. Canada Geese, Collins Zone: The Collins Zone has been eliminated and is now part of the Exterior Zone. Sharp-tailed Grouse: Oct. 15 through Nov. 6. Bobcat hunting and trapping (north of Hwy 64 only): Period 1: Oct. 15 through Dec. 25; Period 2: Dec. 26 through Jan. 31, 2012 Fisher: trapping only: Oct. 15 through Dec. 31 Otter: trapping only: North Zone: Nov. 5 through April 30, 2012; central & south zones: Nov. 5 through March 31, 2012 Permits can be applied for through the Online Licensing Center on the Department of Natural Resources website, at all license sales agents, and at DNR Service Centers (Hours for service centers vary; check the DNR website for service center days and hours of operation; DNR Service Centers are not open on Saturdays), or by calling toll-free 1-877LICENSE (1-877-945-4236). A bobcat permit application costs $6; all other permit applications cost $3. “Our DNR Call Center staff can also help answer any questions folks may have about the permit application process,” said Dave Argall, DNR permit sales coordinator.” The DNR Call Center is staffed by live operators from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., seven days a week, and can be reached at (888) WDNR-INFo (1-888-936-7463). Fall Turkey There will be 95,700 wild turkey permits available to hunters for the fall 2011 turkey hunting season, the same number that was available during the 2010 fall season. While the 16 percent decline in harvest during the spring 2011 season has elicited some concern among some hunters, turkey numbers rise and fall largely in response to weather conditions that influence winter survival and poult production. As well, the reduced harvest was partly the result of poor weather conditions during portions of the spring season, which reduced hunter effort and success, and altered turkey behavior. The limited hen harvest that has characterized recent fall turkey seasons does not have a large impact on turkey populations in the state. Turkey numbers will recover given mild winters and warm, dry conditions during the critical June brood-rearing period. Turkey hunters can therefore still expect excellent opportunities to pursue turkeys during the fall 2011 season. The 2011 fall season will run from Sept. 17 through Nov. 17 for all seven of Wisconsin’s turkey management zones. Pending legislative approval of a proposed rule change, an extended fall turkey season for Zones 1-5 ONLY will run from Nov. 28 through Dec. 31,. If the extended season is approved, hunters who receive a fall turkey permit in Zones 1-5 would be able to fill their unused permits during the extended season in the zone for which they were issued. Hunters may use dogs to hunt wild turkeys during the fall season throughout the state of Wisconsin. The bag limit is one turkey of any age or sex per fall turkey hunting permit (also known as a carcass tag). New turkey harvest registration procedures Starting with the fall 2011 turkey season, hunters will be able to register their turkey by telephone or on-line. No in-person registration stations will be available. All harvested turkeys must be registered by telephone by calling the DNR’s Harvest Registration System at 1-888-HUNT-WIS (1-888-486-8947) or on-line via the DNR website. The phone-in system will accept either touch tone entry or voice commands (e.g., press or say 1). Hunters will be asked to record a harvest registration confirmation number on their hunting permit at the end of the call or on-line session. Hunters will still have until 5 p.m. on the day after harvest to register their turkey. The wild turkey page of the DNR website will have updates regarding specific registration procedures. Sharp-tailed Grouse For 2011, 250 sharp-tailed grouse hunting permits will be available. This is a decrease from 2010 when 330 permits were available. The reduction in permits is the result of a combination of a variety of factors, including a decline in survey numbers throughout the sharp-tailed grouse range, continued habitat loss or conversion, increasingly isolated populations, and cyclical grouse population dynamics, according to wildlife biologists. “A couple properties experienced either no change or a slight increase in observations of sharp-tailed grouse; however, survey numbers as a whole were down from 2010,” said Sharon Fandel, DNR assistant upland wildlife ecologist. Sharp-tailed grouse management units use the same boundaries and designations as deer management units (DMUs). In 2011, only one unit will have permits available. DMU 2 will have 250 permits. DMU 8, which was open in 2010, will be closed in 2011 due to low survey numbers observed at Namekagon Barrens Wildlife Area, one of the focal sharp-tailed grouse properties in the unit. “Although there were a few more birds observed this spring in a couple areas, some of our traditional sharp-tailed grouse dancing grounds and managed properties continue to decline, warranting a cautious and conservative approach in our harvest framework,” said Fandel. “Because sharp-tailed grouse occur at low densities across the landscape, it is often a challenge to locate these birds,” she added. “Anticipating and allowing yourself to enjoy the experience of the hunt is encouraged and likely more realistic than the prospect of finding and harvesting a sharp-tail.” Hunters are reminded to carefully review the zone map and apply only for units that are open. Applying for closed units will result in an invalid application. PIONEER EXPRESS PAGE 27, JULY 25, 2011 Concealed Carry Course at Pintsch's Hardware Let Conway True Value Help You With Your Wedding!
