Forest County Fair to be on September 5,6,7, and 8 September 5th is Entry Day! Highway 8 meanders through the Wisconsin northwoods like a stream, a conduit for logging trucks and summer vacationers alike in the sparsely-populated region. But once a year the smooth two-laner gets rerouted around the small town of Crandon (Pop. 1,961) so the stars of the Traxxas TORC, presented by AMSOIL offroad racing series can park their 900-horsepower, 4,000pound trucks along the Crandon's business district on Lake Ave. to kick off the World Championship® of off-road racing at nearby Crandon International Off-Road Raceway. Crandon's year 'round population nearly triples in size on the Friday opening Labor Day Weekend as upwards of 5,000 people flood the town to check out the tricked-out off-road race trucks and buggies and, best of all, to talk to the drivers about the upcoming race weekend. "The drivers really make the parade what it is," said Crandon's Cliff Flannery. "It's really something special for the kids, to walk down main street in Crandon and be able to talk to guy like Robby Gordon, Scott Taylor and the Menzies Team drivers. They all do such a great job making themselves accessible for the fans." The annual parade down Crandon's main strip took shape some 44 years ago when they first started hosting short course off-road racing events in town - and has been running strong, with few exceptions, ever since. "I remember back the first year we had it a number of the old cars broke down - during the parade," Flannery said laughing. "They had a heck of a time. Couple over heated ... one guy even lost his front bumper. But we've kept with it over the years and it has become a really, really big event for the town of Crandon." Friday's (Aug. 30) Off-Road Parade begins bright & early (8:30 a.m.) with a police escort of the massive offroad vehicles to the downtown business district. At the same time the parade floats meet at the Fire Dept. on Lake Avenue and begin staging. From 9 to 11:30 a.m. the race teams compete in a number of skill events, including the tire changing and truck push competitions. Then, at high noon in Crandon, the fire whistle blows signaling the start of the annual Off-Road Parade! "The whole deal only lasts about four hours, but the local businesses make more during that time than they do all weekend," said Flannery of the astounding economic impact to the Crandon downtown business district, also noting the local Lions Club, Crandon Chamber of Commerce and Northwoods Veteran's Center. What: World Championship® of Traxxas TORC Series, presented by AMSOIL - short course off-road truck racing the world's premier Baja-style off-road racing in a natural stadium setting! Who: Off-road racers from Baja to the Wisconsin northwoods, the TORC Series showcases champion drivers like Ricky Johnson, Wisconsin's own Johnny Greaves and son CJ Greaves, Rob MacCachren, Scott Douglas, FMX star Brian Deegan, Mike & Mark Jenkins and Bryce Menzies. Where: Crandon International Off-Road Raceway When: Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Aug. 30th to Sept. 1 Off-Road Parade on Lake Ave: Friday, Aug. 30. Trucks arrive at 9 a.m., parade begins at noon Race Times: Gates open at 8 a.m., practice and qualifying It is that time of year again when many of you are busy planning what to enter in the Forest County Fair and others are busy planning booths or possibly activities that your organization will take part in. We are all very excited and have planned a great celebration of our county, communities and fall harvest for both children and adults. This year’s fair is being held September 5th, 6th, 7th and 8th with September 5th being entry day. We will also be holding some youth judging events on Wednesday, September 4th in the evening. Buildings will open at 3:30 p.m. Thursday afternoon so you can begin placing your exhibits. We are asking all Open Class Exhibitors to send their entry forms to Brenda Flannery at 206 W. Madison Street, Crandon, WI 54520 by Friday, August 28th so your tags can be printed and ready for you when you arrive on Thursday evening. Late entries will be accepted but if you wait past September 3rd, you may have to hand write your entry tags on Thursday evening when you bring your exhibits in. Feel free to put down what you plan on exhibiting as it is easier to remove an entry than to add it later. We will accept entries on the evening of the fair but we will not have a computer on site so you will be responsible for hand writing your own entry tags and turning in a correct copy of the entry listing so it can be put in the computer prior to judges sheets being ran. If there are errors in the department, class or lot that you list, your exhibit will be judged for a ribbon but you will not receive a premium so it is imperative that you ask questions if you are unsure of where to enter an item. We encourage you to submit your entries early so exhibits are entered correctly. If anyone has any questions while filling out their forms they can contact Brenda Flannery at 478-8802 and she will help you through the process. Also, if any towns or organizations are interested in setting up a booth please contact Brenda as soon as possible so we can make arrangements for you do so. 4-H & Youth entries should be sent in to the UWExtension Office at 200 E. Madison St., Crandon, WI 54520. For more information on deadlines or other questions, please contact Steve Nelson at 715-4782212. This year, we are going back to our roots with an old fashioned country fair theme. We will have many activities centered around this theme. We look forward to a lot of fun with judging Friday morning, the carnival kicking off Friday afternoon, our talent contest and entertainment by Special Moments DJ Service Friday evening. Saturday we have many fun family activities planned as well as various activities brought to you by the Forest County Health Department, and Commission on Aging. It is also wristband day so come for a fun day filled with family fun and entertainment. Finally, Sunday’s entertainment includes the Li’l Buckaroos Rodeo. Please watch for detailed schedules! As always, there will be a lot of food, fun and entertainment! We look forward to seeing you at the fair! Continued on page 23 The Trophy Karts are coming! Crandon gets ready for the world's fastest off-road go-karts CRANDON, Wis., (Aug. 23, 2013) - The popular west coast Trophy Kart (miniature single-seat race trucks) movement is jumping the Mississippi and making its inaugural full-gate race appearance at Crandon International Off-Road Raceway's Labor Day Weekend offroad World Championship®. Driven by kids ages ten to 15 years old, the 450cc (fourstroke) Japanese motorcycle company-powered vehicles weighting 810-pound (w/ driver) are the latest way to transition younger kids to the TORC PRO Buggy & PRO Lite divisions - filling a void for especially the younger kids to develop their racing skills. "I'll tell you what, these little karts get after it," said Crandon's Cliff Flannery. "They're a wonderful way to introduce kids to short course off-road racing and are pretty darn exciting to watch. Everyone at Crandon's pumped they're making the trek out here from Nevada and will definitely be a fun added feature for our fans next weekend." Healthy Harvest Day at the Forest County Fair Saturday, September 7th marks the first event of a series of community wide strategies to improve the health of Forest County. Forest County CAN! is hosting the second annual Healthy Harvest Day at the Forest County fairgrounds. Registration will start at 9:00 am. The mile walk will start at 9:30 am and will be followed by activities for all ages, including a Story Book Walk, Games, and a Harvest Story. This is a free event and participants will be eligible for prizes such as farmer’s market coupons and fair ride tickets and more. The goal of this event is to promote healthy eating and physical activity. Two of our community’s current health priorities are to increase adequate, appropriate, and safe food and nutrition and physical activity county wide. We wish to do this to decrease our county’s rates of obesity, diabetes, and other chronic conditions, which are higher within Forest County than they are in the state of Wisconsin. Come make Forest County healthier and participate in the Harvest Fun Walk/Run! Sponsors of the event are Security Health Plan, Molina Healthcare, United Healthcare, and Potawatomi Carter Casino. See Us Online at PioneerExpressCrandon.com Dedication of the new Wabeno Band Shell Saturday Aug. 31 Goodbye old band shell. You served the community well! The dedication of the new Wabeno Band Shell will on be held on Saturday, August 31st. For those not familiar with the Wabeno Band Shell project, the old original band shell succumbed to a freak, high wind that toppled the Wabeno landmark, leaving everybody upset. Wabeno is a community that enjoys it history and culture, and they weren't going to go without a band shell. Soon, there was an effort to raise funds to replace the original band shell with a new, stronger and attractive structure, which will be the new Wabeno landmark. The festivities will begin with a flea market at 10:00 a.m. Music and dedication will be at 2:30 p.m. There will, of course, be food and refreshments at this historic event, and a bouncy house for kids. Starting at 6:00 p.m. there will be music by Iggy Rae Vicious and fireworks at dusk. The new Wabeno landmark, future home of many good times Rolling Stone Lake P&R Labor Day Picnic on Sunday Rolling Stone Lake Protection & Rehabilitation District is holding their annual Labor Day Picnic at the Rolling Stone Lake P&R Building at the corner of Lake Shore Road and Pickerel Lake Road in Pearson on Sunday, September 1st.

There will be live music by "Lovin' Country" from 3-8:00 p.m. Rummage salers should check out the rummage sale beginning at 8:00 a.m. on Friday, August 30th and Saturday, August 31st.

The fun will be at Barb's Valley Inn on Hwy 32, north of Townsend, where there will be music, food, meat raffles and lots of sweet corn with beverages to wash it down. There will be 15 big prizes. The parade starts at the Shell station at 10:00 a.m. and will end at Barb's Valley Inn. Come and have some fun. K-9 Rummage Sale in Wabeno The Wabeno Firefighter's Park (the fairgrounds) will be the site of our Labor Day Rummage Sale. We would like this to build into a community event, with all proceeds to go to Officer Ashbeck and Officer Dutch.

We are looking for volunteers to help set up the sale on August 29th from 6:00 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. at the park, and to help take it down on September 1st, starting at noon.

See Listing Details on website: www.postlakerealestate.com Footstock final results Crandon, Wisconsin – For the second year in a row, mother nature wreaked havoc on Footstock, the nation’s most prestigious endurance barefoot competition in Crandon, Wisconsin. Over 120 skiers from as far south as Florida and as far north as Canada, made the annual pilgrimage to the Northwoods of Wisconsin to ski in this year’s 25th anniversary event. But what they encountered was not the glass calm water that endurance barefooters typically prefer. Instead, they saw 15-25 mph southwest winds pummel the famed “Chetek Corner,” the huge looping ½ mile turn on the backside of Peshtigo Lake, making the chance of anyone completing a figure eight almost impossible. In the end though, neither runner-up Chad Mietz nor mother nature could derail endurance barefoot phenomenon Peter Fleck of Orlando Florida, as he cruised unbeaten all weekend to win both the National Seniors and Open Barefoot Titles. The conditions being so rough, that only three figure eights were completed all weekend, two at the end of Saturday and only one on Sunday-the last run of the day. That decided the Championship. The rough water also had a major impact on some of the perennial favorites as most struggled to even get to the backside of the tough mile and a half course. Past champion Ron Blouw was knocked out before reaching the Top 20 and favorite Marc Donahue of Indiana could do no better than 6th. Continued at right....

But the weather did reveal the strength of some up and coming skiers that could soon challenge Fleck for the Open title. Besides the “iron man” Mietz who took second in both the Seniors and Open division for the second year in a row, hometown skier, Jacob Weber made his presence known in the Open Division by steamrolling the field to take third, his best finish ever. Former hometown skier, Greg Fatla took an impressive 5th and the surprise of the championship might have been the showing of Minnesota barefooter Kyle Kazle. After not even cracking the Top 40. Kazle dominated in the rough water and consistently pulled off some of the longest runs of the tournament before taking home 4th place in the Open. But in the end, even with Barefoot Central’s $1,000 bounty on his head, (offered to any skiers who could beat him), Fleck was unstoppable and was the only man to not suffer a fall all weekend. “It was brutal out there Sunday,” noted Tournament Director, Jacob Weber. “As soon as you made the first turn it was just constant waves. On Sunday, the tournament definitely changed from endurance to survival out there. ” The weekend also was a coming out party of sorts for eventual Women’s Champ, Haley Gibbon who not only roared through her division, but knocked off some men in the Open as well. As did 2nd place women’s barefooter Victoria Wiesner, who also showed her toughness in some long runs on the rough water course. In the Master’s Division, Canadian barefooter, Wayne King of Manitoba defended his title by beating Michigan’s Dave Hopkins twice in a row in the finals. In the Junior Division, Isaac Aukee and Brody Meskers showed why the future is bright for them as well, as they battled it out for first and second, respectively. Meskers also had his best finish in the Open, placing an impressive 7th. The Best of the Worst crown went to Joel Kehl. In all, over 265 runs were pulled in two days and $7,500 in prize money was awarded. 2012 National Figure Eight Barefoot Championships Official Results 1st Pete Fleck (Wisconsin) 2nd Chad Mietz (Wisconsin) 3rd Jacob Weber (Wisconsin) 4th Kyle Kazel (Minnesota) 5th Greg Fatla (Wisconsin) 6th Marc Donahue (Indiana) 7th Brody Meskers (Wisconsin) 8th Elliot Padgett (Wisconsin) 9th Luke Bruckner (Wisconsin) 10th Dan Ehlers (Wisconsin) 11th Chris Skaletski (Wisconsin) 12th Kevin McGregor (Minnesota) 13th Wayne King (Manitoba, Canada) 14th Ethan Schulda (Wisconsin) 15th Ben Walker (Wisconsin) 16th Nick Ruchti (Minnesota) MR. & MRS.

LOUIS AUCTIONS, LLC 715-367-1668 Submitted by Kate Schultz Resource Guide The time immediately following the death of a loved one can be overwhelming, with grief and bereavement complicated by a seemingly endless number of tasks. The immediate days following the death will be focused on the funeral or memorial service arrangements. Soon after, however, various financial and legal issues must be addressed. Many people find it very difficult to be sure they have taken care of everything. The following is a list of tasks that are likely to need attention: If your loved one was a veteran, you may be able to get assistance with the funeral, burial plot, or other benefits. Contact your local office for a phone number and assistance. Obtain 10-15 copies of the Death Certificate from your funeral director. Notify your local Social Security office of the death, since these benefits will stop. Overpayments will result in a difficult process or repayment. If you are a surviving spouse, ask about your eligibility for increased benefits. Contact the health insurance company for all life insurance policies. You will need to provide the policy number and a certified of the death certificate and fill out a claim form. If the deceased is listed as the beneficiary on any policy, arrange to have the name removed. If the deceased was working, contact the employer for information on pensions plans, credit unions and union death benefits. You will need a certified copy of the death certificate for each claim. Return credit cards of the deceased with a certified copy of the death certificate or notify the credit card company if you , as the survivor, want to retain use of the card. Seek the advice of an accountant or tax advisor about filing the deceased’s tax return for the year of the death. Keep monthly bank statements on all individual and joint accounts that show the account balance on the day of the death, since you will need this information for the estate tax return. Arrange to change any joint bank accounts into your name. If the deceased’s estate is in trust , check with the Trust Department or Customer Service at the bank. Arrange to change stocks and bonds into your name. Your bank or stockbroker will have the forms. Make sure that important bills, such as mortgage payments, continue to be paid. Documents you may need to complete the tasks: •Death Certificates (10-15 certified copies)•Social Security Card•Marriage Certificate•Birth Certificate•Insurance Policies •Deed and Titles to Property•Stock Certificates•Bank Books •Veteran papers ( if applicable)•Recent Income Tax Forms and W-2 Forms•Automobile Title and Registration Papers•Loan and Installment Payment Books and /or Contracts.

And since 1970 the off-road phenomenon has played out in Crandon, making it the nation's longest-running short course off-road competition. The Nicolet College Learning in Retirement program is launching its 2013 Fall session with more than 30 different just-for-the-fun-of-it learning opportunities. The Fall Kick-off, which is open to the public, will take place Thursday, September 5th, in the Learning Resources Center on the Nicolet Campus one mile south of Rhinelander just off of Hwy. G. The event will start with a social hour at 4:30 p.m., the spirit-bolstering Believe in Yourself presentation at 5 p.m., and dinner at 6 p.m. Cost is $11 for members and $13 for guests.

Upcoming topics include Cuba: A Trip Back in Time, Bicycling the Czech Republic, the popular Ced’s Nature Series, TED Talks, Brain Health – the Last Frontier, Roots of Religion, LIR Chorus, and numerous others. “Any of these offerings is a great way for active retirees to learn new things and meet new people,” said Nancy Brissee, Nicolet LIR community representative. “The whole point is to have fun and stay active and every class offers the opportunity to do exactly that.” Classes will be held throughout the Northwoods in Rhinelander, Tomahawk, Crandon, Three Lakes, Eagle River, and Minocqua. Some classes will meet just once while others are held once a week over the course of months. About 300 Northwoods retirees belong to the organization. The LIR annual membership is $35. Members can take as many or as few classes as they desire. There are no tests or grades in any class - only learning just for the fun of it.

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 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 Tuesday, September 24, 2013 from 8:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. at the CESA 8 Office, 223 West Park Street, Gillett, WI 54124. This hands-on training presents a positive, honest, and accurate account of what it really means to be a substitute teacher! Pertinent topics include, discipline/management techniques, important health and safety information, expectations from the classroom teacher, special education concerns, and sample emergency lesson plans, with time allowed for networking and questions from participants. The application process is also explained. For further information or to register, please logon to www.myQuickReg.com. Registration deadline is September 17, 2013 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 The Forest County Sheriff’s Department K-9 unit, would like to thank the Golfers, Hole sponsors, and all of the businesses and individuals that made donation to the 2013 golf outing. THANK YOU 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.

P22 PIONEER EXPRESS PAGE 26, SEPTEMBER 2, 2013 Vet's Corner (Army News Service, July 8, 2013) -- Beginning Aug. 1, 2013, every Soldier who elects to transfer their Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits to a family member will incur an additional four years in the Army, without regard to their time in service. The policy already applies to nearly every Soldier in the Army -- and has since the beginning of transferability in 2009. Until now, Soldiers who were nearing retirement were eligible for certain exemptions from the policy. That will no longer be the case. This policy change affects them. "This policy was drafted in 2009 and takes effect Aug. 1, 2013. It is important that we inform Soldiers of this existing policy regarding the Post 9/11 GI Bill benefits," said Lt. Col. Mark Viney, chief of the Enlisted Professional Development Branch, Army G-1. That news comes in a message to military personnel, dated April 15, 2013. The rule largely affects senior officers and enlisted Soldiers who are retirement-eligible. As of now, these Soldiers may be able to transfer benefits to their loved ones with anywhere from zero to three years of additional service. Soldiers who are not retirement eligible, electing to transfer their GI Bill benefits to a family member means committing for an additional four years. Beginning Aug. 1 that rule will apply to all Soldiers, whether they are retirement-eligible or not. "The Post-9/11 GI Bill. Soldiers are entitled to the benefit for their own use, but to transfer to dependents: that is used as a recruiting and retention tool," said Lt. Col. Mark Viney, chief of the Enlisted Professional Development Branch, Army G-1. Viney also serves as the policy proponent for the Army's Post-9/11 GI Bill Transfer of Education Benefits Program. "We want Soldiers to be informed of the impact of this policy," Viney said. "This is going to impact their decisions and their families, and whether or not they are going to have this money available to fund their dependent's education." Veterans Affairs, or VA, also has eligibility requirements for transferability. A Soldier must have six years of active duty in order to transfer his GI Bill benefits. In some cases, if a Soldier has incurred additional time in service in order to transfer GI Bill benefits to a family member, and is afterward unable to serve that additional time in service, he or she may be required to pay back those benefits. Viney said that as the Army draws down, some Soldiers will be involuntarily separated under force-shaping initiatives. Soldiers who are separated early under such circumstances and who had previously transferred their Post-9/11 GI Bill education benefits to their dependents may retain the transferred benefits, without needing to repay them to the VA. Soldiers who were retirement eligible after August 1, 2009 and before August 1, 2012 and who are considering transferring their benefits to their dependents should review their service obligation before doing so. All Soldiers will incur a four-year service obligation after August 1, 2013 if they transfer their benefits to their dependents. Soldiers with questions about transferring their Post-9/11 GI Bill education benefits to their dependents should contact their approving official.

The multi-time PRO 2WD champion (SODA, CORR, WSORR & TORC) will turn the reigns of his TORC Series PRO 2 truck to Dan McMillan, who will drive Taylor's truck with his (McMillan's) body in both Saturday and Sunday's PRO 2 feature events. But for Friday's parade Taylor has one more treat in store for the fans ... he's breaking out the black tiger truck from the Exxon Super Flow days and will race 'er one last time in Sunday's finale AMSOIL Cup race. Said Taylor, 57, with a bit of a quiver in his voice: "That's gonna be the end of my deal right there." Taylor's storied race career began more than 40 years ago near his hometown of Belvidere, Ill., when he scored a podium 3rd place finish in his first-ever off-road contest. Saying "Hey, I've got something going on here," Taylor would continue to race throughout the summer and, as he put it, "won races left and right." During this time he would hear about the racing that just began ('71) up here at Crandon and decided to make the trek up to the Wisconsin northwoods event in the fall of 1973. "The first time I made it to Crandon I remember hauling my race car up there on an open trailer behind my everyday car," said Taylor. "I got there and went straight to tech (inspection) in downtown Crandon and the race officials looked in the back of my trailer and said 'Yep, there it is - here you go.' And there I went - off to race." Noteworthy: Taylor would make the podium with a "2nd or 3rd," he said at his inaugural race at Crandon. Things were certainly a bit different back then compared to what today's Crandon Raceway looks like, as Taylor recalls: "In all honesty I really don't remember much about that first race at Crandon. It was 40 years ago and, of course, we were running the Brush Run 101, over logs and boulders and through mud, the woods. I remember it just being a grueling deal. And then every year after that it was the same thing, until they moved the track in 1984." "I can remember going through the big water holes and the motorcycle gangs where there, drinking beer and fighting and carrying on. But I'll be darned if you managed to get stuck while you were going through there (and) they'd stop what they were doing and help push you out of the mud. I mean it was pretty primitive back then, but it was a lot of fun. And those days will never be recreated these days because things were just done a lot differently back then." Taylor broke up his car pretty good in the process of racing that first season, so he built another car the following year, a single seater that, according to Taylor: "Nobody could touch." He traveled all over North America that summer, racing from California to Canada with, of course, a stop at Crandon in between. "It just turned into being quite a deal," he said. With a heavy accelerator foot and a keen sense of racing tactics that allowed him to keep it on that fine line between being on the edge and out-of-control, Taylor would continue to win - and win big - as he raced throughout the country in the coming decades. But it was the 2002 year that stands out the most at Crandon Raceway as Taylor's fondest memory at the famous Crandon Raceway. "That year I won the Governor's Cup in the spring, I won the BorgWarner Cup in the fall and won the championship. So obviously that'd be pretty hard to top," said Taylor. "It was just an awesome time. The folks at Crandon have been personal close friends of mine for many, many years and we've just enjoyed going up there so much. It's really just indescribable." Taylor said this coming weekend, understandably, is going to be an emotional one for him. One of the all-time favorite drivers of the legions of Crandon faithful, Taylor explains that he's moving forward at a pace with his engineering business that's equal to that of his hardcharging racing career. "I'm so busy right now with making parts for the airline and snowmobile industries that I'm going to concentrate to that, and more than likely just stick to my retirement program here - maybe come to a few races now and then," he said. "But other than that I don't see myself coming back to it like how I've been involved the last 40 years. "There just comes a time."
