Boyceville sets March 6 deadline for police chief applications
By LeAnn R. Ralph
BOYCEVILLE
—
The
Boyceville Village Board has set
a March 6 deadline to submit
applications for the position of
police chief.
The Boyceville Village Board
held a special meeting January 21
with Paul Gunness, chief deputy
of the Dunn County Sheriff ’s
Department, to discuss the process
of hiring a police chief and to make
decisions about the salary and the
job description.
The Dunn County Sheriff ’s
Department is prepared to offer
assistance in whatever areas the
Boyceville Village Board would
like assistance, Gunness said.
When the Village of Colfax hired
a new police chief in the spring of
2014, Colfax did the majority of
the work in advertising for the
position, gathering and screening
applications and interviewing the
candidates. The Dunn County
Sheriff ’s Department conducted
the background check, Gunness
said.
“It is important to determine
the level of qualification and what
you are looking for,” he said.
Colfax hired a police chief with
law enforcement experience, but
Boyceville village board members
could decide they want someone
with more supervisory experience,
Gunness said.
“It’s what you want (in a police
chief),” he said.
In addition to the application
itself with a resume and a cover
letter, the application process
could include written tests and
oral interviews with a public
safety committee that also has a
law enforcement presence, he said.
When an applicant gives an
answer to a question, it might
seem a like a good answer, but
someone in law enforcement
would have different perspective
on whether it was a good answer
in terms of how a candidate for
police chief should respond to the
question, Gunness said.
Background
The Dunn County Sheriff ’s
Department would be more than
willing to conduct the background
check for a Boyceville police chief
candidate, Gunness said.
The background check would be
free to Boyceville for candidates
in Wisconsin or the Twin Cities
area. Background checks in other
states, such as California or New
Mexico or Colorado, would come
with a cost because they would
be referred to another agency, he
said.
When the Dunn County
Sheriff ’s Department conducts a
background check, representatives
for the sheriff ’s department
travel to the place where the
candidate lives and go door to door
interviewing people.
“We knock on doors. We stop
people on the street,” Gunness
said.
Confidential
The Dunn County Sheriff ’s
D epar tmen t ha s a n “ a ct ive
interest” in who is hired as a
police chief because the sheriff ’s
department must work closely
with the police chiefs in the county,
Gunness said.
Having someone in a police
chief position who has good
law enforcement skills and is
trustworthy is of the utmost
importance, especially with the
number of drug investigations
going on in Dunn County right
now, he said.
Someone who does not keep
the investigations confidential is
someone who could end up being
killed or getting someone else
killed, he said.
“We are not here to make a
decision. We are here to assist,”
Gunness said, noting that
representatives for the sheriff ’s
department would tell the
Boyceville Village Board whether
they would or would not hire
someone but that the Boyceville
Village Board would actually hire
the police chief.
After the Boyceville Village
Board has selected a candidate
and the Dunn County Sheriff ’s
Department has conducted a
background check, the candidate
must still go through psychological
testing, medical testing and drug
testing, Gunness said.
Psychological testing is daylong process that will cost the
village several thousand dollars,
“but there’s too much liability
without the psychological testing,”
Gunness said.
Three months
A l l t o g e t h e r, a d v e r t i s i n g
for the position, screening
and interviewing candidates,
conducting background checks
and completing the other testing
is about a three-month process,
Gunness said.
“We will assist you in any way
possible,” he said.
Village Trustee Bud Gilbertson
wondered if Dunn County Sheriff’s
Department personnel would help
with the oral interviews.
Conducting the oral interviews
would be up to the village board,
but the sheriff ’s department will
provide one or two people to also

Honorable Judge Howard W. Cameron will retire this March
By Kelsie Hoitomt
HUDSON — At the age of
63, with six and half years as a
St. Croix County Circuit Court
Judge under his belt, Howard W.
Cameron says it is time to retire
and enjoy the other finer things in
life while he still can.
Judge Cameron’s journey to
being a Circuit Court Judge began
many years ago. He grew up in
Rice Lake, Wisconsin along side a
family that had several members
in Law.
His dad grew up in Chippewa
and his mother in Cameron so
they found some place to meet in
the middle.
It was in Rice Lake that his dad
had a law practice along with his
uncle. Currently his one brother
is in his 32nd year as a Judge in
Chippewa County.
In 1970, Howard graduated
from Rice Lake High School and
then he decided he wanted to
go some place different. That
brought him to the University of
Fairbanks-Alaska.
He was only there for one year
before enrolling at UW-Madison
where he graduated in 1974.
He graduated with a degree in
Agricultural Education, then went
to Michigan for a year to work on
a dairy farm outside of Detroit.
Following that, he came back
and worked in Rice Lake as a
feed salesman before he got a job
in Spooner. He was a high school
Ag teacher for six years there
between 1976-82.
In the spring of ’84 he went
back to Alaska. He had been
dairy farming for two years and
decided he needed people in his
life because the cows just weren’t
much for conversation. In Alaska, enrolled in a
semester of business classes at the
University of Alaska-Fairbanks.
Then in May he moved to Palmer,
Alaska in the Matanuska Valley to

milk cows for the summer. At that
time there were only two dairy
farms in the valley.
Howard spent time in Alaska
from January to August of 1984.
After that he returned to Madison
and began classes at the end of
August.
It was at this time that he
began his journey into Law. He
spent three years in Madison
earning his Juris Doctorate “J.D.”
Degree.
In 1987 he graduated with a
Law Degree and moved to Osceola
with his wife Teresa. They married
that same year.
Teresa graduated from Rice
Lake in 1973 but they did not
meet until 1983, even though he

had known her brothers for over
15 years.
Teresa was teaching at the
Hudson Middle School at the time
and Howard began his work at a
private practice in Osceola.
They moved from Osceola to
Hudson in 1993 and started a
family. Together they have one
daughter who recently graduated
from Madison herself and is now
putting her education to use in
New York.
Howard moved on from Osceola
and spent one year doing child
support work in Barron County in
1991 and then he began working

CHOPPING WOOD FOR A CAUSE — Several area people have volunteered to cut, rank and
haul wood for Boyceville’s Coaches vs. Cancer silent auction and benefit on Thursday, February 5.
The volunteers have spent the past few Saturdays, including January 24, cutting wood on the Siler
property along County Rd. V in New Haven Township. Gary “Stub” Swenson, who helped organize
the effort, said that about 15 face cords of wood would be donated. —photo by Shawn DeWitt

19 arrested for participating
in cockfighting operation
GLENWOOD CITY — On
Saturday, January 24 a little
past 1:00 p.m. five St. Croix
County deputies, a Wisconsin
State Patrolman, a Polk County
Sheriff and a Baldwin Police
Officer responded to the 1700
block of 315th Street in the Town
of Glenwood.
Law Enforcement was contacted
in regards to suspicion of an illegal
cockfighting ring operating at the
above address.
19 people were arrested that
day on the property for being
spectators to a cockfight. No names
had been released at time of
publication.
St. Croix County Sheriff, John
Shilts stated that there is limited
information available at this time
due to the fact that the case is still
under investigation.
The department is trying to
determine who is responsible for
organizing the operation.

assist with the oral interviews,
Gunness said, adding that he
would most likely be part of
the interview team, along with
Captain Kevin Bygd of the Dunn
County Sheriff ’s Department and
also a Boyceville resident, as well
as a police chief from another
agency.
“We are willing to help you,
but we do not want to steer the
process,” Gunness said.
Village Trustee John Hellmann
wondered about conducting the
interviews by telephone for those
candidates who are out of state.
G u n ne s s s a id he adv ises
against conducting interviews by
telephone.
“You should ask them to come
and be here face to face … (and)
not only are they coming here, but
we are going there,” Gunness said.
Out of state
Village Trustee Jo Palmer
wondered if Boyceville would be
likely to get out of state candidates
applying for the position.
“I would be surprised if you did
not get (applications) from out
of state,” Gunness said, adding
that Boyceville also could get
applications from larger agencies,
such as Milwaukee.
Working in a small town in
northern Wisconsin can be an
attractive option for an officer who
has been in law enforcement for a
while and wants to finish his or
her career in a more quiet setting,
Gunness said.
On the other hand, some of the
small towns in Dunn County, such
as Colfax, have been anything but
quiet lately, he said.
Police officers in Wisconsin
are required to have 60 hours of
college credits or an associate’s
degree in criminal justice, police
academy training, and be certified
as a police officer in Wisconsin,
Gunness said.
If a police officer is certified
in another state, he or she would
have one year to obtain Wisconsin
certification, which is why it would
be important to have Wisconsin
certification as a condition of
employment along with a one-year
probationary period to make sure
the police chief gets the Wisconsin
certification, he said.
P o l i c e o f f i c e r s mu st al so
complete 24 hours of ongoing
training every year and must
complete other training to
maintain their certification,
Gunness said.
Gunness recommended
asking for three to five years of
experience and noted that the
type of experience can outweigh
the number of years of experience.
Gunness also recommended
allowing four to six weeks for the
applications to be submitted.
The Boyceville Village Board set
a salary range for the police chief
position of $47,000 to $53,000,
agreed that they wanted the job
listing to include “supervisory
management skills are preferred,”
and set a deadline of March 6.
Continued from page 1
for the State Public Defender
Office, which was a job he held
from November of ’91 to 2008.
His job was to represent people
who were charged with a criminal
offense and did not have the
means to support a private lawyer.
He started his public defender
work in Spooner and that lasted
until 1997 before he was finally
transferred to Hudson.
His main office was in Hudson,
but that was only a check in place
as he spent the majority of his
time working in other surrounding
counties including Dunn, Pierce
and Polk.
Those years of his life he truly
enjoyed, not just because of his job,
but because he was able to travel
across northwest Wisconsin and
see what every little town along
the way had in store.
He and his wife are looking
forward to hitting the country
roads and seeing what it brings
to their future.
As a public defender, Howard
actually appeared in front of each
of the current Circuit Court Judges
who are now his colleagues; Eric
Lundell, Scott Needham and
Edward Vlack. In 2008, the Legislature opened
up a new branch position in St.
Croix County, which allowed for
another Circuit Court Judge to
be added.
Howard thought that that was
the perfect opportunity to become
a judge so he along with four
others ran for election. He made it
through the primary and won the
general election in April of 2008.
He took office in August of 2008
as the Branch IV Circuit Court
Judge in St. Croix County.
In his six and a half years as a
judge, Howard has seen it all.
Being a smaller county
compared to other places in the
state like Milwaukee, which has
47 branches instead of four, judges
here handle nearly every type
of case; criminal, family, plea
hearings, etc.
As to be expected not every
case is easy to handle. Judge
Cameron was the responsible
official for the Schaffhausen case,
which stood trial for 13 days after
Aaron Schaffhausen killed his
three children at their home in
River Falls.
What makes up for cases
like those are adoptions. Judge
Cameron has given approval to
several families over his years and
watched children from all over the
world find loving homes.
“It is amazing to be a judge and
it really is an honor,” shared Judge
Cameron.
With retirement nearing,
Howard is looking forward to
dedicating more time to his church
as he is a Deacon at Saint Patrick’s
Parish in Hudson.
While he still feels healthy and
can enjoy his experience, Howard
and his wife hope to travel across
the globe to places like Australia
and New Zealand in their next
stage of life.

MENOMONIE — A 36-yearold Colfax woman whose house
was the target of an arsonist
has now been charged with ten
additional felonies related to
drugs and bail jumping, bringing
the total felony charges against
her in three counties to 43.
Katie E. Bundy made an initial
appearance in Dunn County
Circuit Court on the new felony
charges January 16.
In the most recent case, Bundy
is charged with two felony counts
of possession of methamphetamine
and possessing drug paraphernalia
to manufacture or store
methamphetamine and eight
counts of felony bail jumping.
Dunn County Judge Rod
Smeltzer set a bail on January 14
in the latest Bundy case of $3,000
cash.
Dunn County Court records
list Bundy’s address as 601 Main
Street in Colfax, which was also
the apartment building where the
officer-involved shooting of Beth
Mittelstadt occurred in December
when Mittelstadt allegedly came
after Colfax Police Chief Bill
Anderson with a machete.
Mittelstadt is accused of setting
fire to Bundy’s house at 511 East
Third Avenue in Colfax last May.
According to Dunn
County Sheriff ’s Department
investigators, Mittelstadt said she
was at Bundy’s house on Third
Avenue that evening in May of
2014 to buy methamphetamine
from Bundy but denied having
anything to do with setting the
fire.
Bundy faces numerous other
charges in Dunn County in
other cases as well: one count
of felony obtaining a controlled
substance by fraud; one felony
count of misappropriating an
identification to obtain money;
one felony count of possession of
methamphetamine; one felony
count of possession of narcotics;
eight additional counts of felony
bail jumping; and misdemeanor
counts of retail theft, possession
of marijuana, and possession of
drug paraphernalia.
Bail in the other Dunn County
cases has been set with a $1,000
signature bond in May of 2013; a
$1,000 signature bond in February
of 2014; $20 cash in March of 2014;
and $100 cash in July of 2014.
Bundy also faces numerous
felony and misdemeanor charges
in Chippewa County and Eau
Claire County.
In Chippewa County, Bundy is
charged with one felony count each
of obtaining a controlled substance
by fraud; misappropriating an ID
to obtain money; forgery; cashing a
forged checked; and bail jumping.
Bail was set in the Chippewa
County case with a $2,500
signature bond in May of 2014.
In Eau Claire County, Bundy is
charged with one felony count of
delivering methamphetamine; one
felony count of identity theft; one
felony count of possessing narcotic
drugs; 13 felony counts of bail
jumping; and misdemeanor counts
of obtaining prescription drugs
using a false order; retail theft;
obstructing an officer; possession
of a controlled substance; and
possession of drug paraphernalia.
Bail in Eau Claire County was
set with two $1,500 signature
bonds on two separate dates in
November of 2014; and a $500
signature bond in July of 2014.
All together, in all three
counties, Bundy is charged with
43 felonies related to drug charges
and bail jumping and eight
misdemeanors.
As a condition of bail in
Eau Claire County, Bundy has
been ordered to not possess or
use any illegal drugs or drug
paraphernalia; not to possess
an ID that belongs to someone
else; and to have no contact with
Shopko.
A plea hearing for Bundy on
various charges was scheduled
in Dunn County Circuit Court
January 26.
A review hearing for the Bundy
case in Chippewa County is set for
February 24.
Additional hearings for Bundy
are scheduled in Eau Claire County
on January 28 and January 29.

MENOMONIE — The Dunn
County Board has approved a
first reading of amendments to
the zoning ordinance to allow
single family housing in General
Agriculture areas and tennis
courts, golf courses and archery
ranges in Residential I districts.
The Dunn County Board
approved the first reading at the
January 21 meeting.
A comprehensive revision of
the county’s zoning ordinance was
adopted by the county board in
October of 2013.
All of the townships in Dunn
County that opted into county
zoning have approved zoning
maps since then.
Along the way, it was discovered
that the county’s zoning ordinance
did not include single family
residential in the General
Agriculture area as a permitted
use.
If the amendments are
approved the county board, single
family housing would be allowed
in General Agriculture areas
either by Parent Tract standards
or by Contiguous Tract standards.
Parent Tract
By Parent Tract standards,
single family housing would be
allowed in General Agriculture at
a density of one residential parcel
per eight acres.
The maximum number of
allowable residential parcels
would be calculated by dividing
the area of the Parent Tract by
eight.
For example, a 26-acre Parent
Tract could be divided into 3.25
parcels — or in other words, three
parcels.
A fractional lot that is at least
80 percent would be rounded up to
the next whole number.
For example, a 31-acre lot
divided by eight would be 3.88,
which would be rounded up to four
residential lots.
Existing dwellings on the
Parent Tract are counted toward
the residential density, and no
parcel will be created that does not
allow at least one dwelling unit.
Parcels of land that existed
before the amendment was adopted
and are less than eight acres will
continue as non-conforming lots
but cannot be further subdivided.
Parcels of land that existed
before the amendment was
adopted that are greater than
eight acres but smaller than 16
acres can be subdivided to create
one additional parcel.
Contiguous Tract
Maximum residential density
under the Contiguous Tract
standards in General Agriculture
areas also will be one residential
lot per eight acres.
Calculations for the allowable
number of lots will be the same
as for the Parent Tract: divide the
total number of acres by eight, and
any fractions that are are at least
80 percent will be rounded up.
Existing dwelling units will
be counted toward the allowable
residential density, and no parcel
will be created that does not allow
at least one dwelling.
The housing density will be
based on the number of acres in
the contiguous tract, and density
can be transferred between
contiguous parcels.
For example, if a landowner has
16 acres that are used as a farm
field with a contiguous boundary
to 16 acres of wooded hills – the
two residential units that would
be allowed on the 16 acres of
farmland can be transferred to
the 16 acres of wooded hills, so
that instead of two residential
units on the 16 wooded acres,
four residential units would be
allowed.
Contiguous is defined as parcels
of land that share a common
boundary. Parcels that meet only
at a single point are not considered
contiguous.
In order to transfer density,
the county surveyor, the zoning
administrator and the landowner
must meet and agree on the
transfer of density.
Transfer of density will be
accomplished by a deed restriction
on the property that declares the
number of density credits for each
parcel.
The person requesting the
transfer of density will pay a
Transfer of Density fee, and the
deed restriction will be filed with
the Dunn County Register of deeds
prior to county approval of any
land division.
Golf courses
Another amendment to the
zoning ordinance would allow golf
courses, tennis courts, archery
ranges and similar private or
public clubs or fraternities in the
Residential I district as a special
exception that would be approved
by the Dunn County Zoning Board
of Adjustment.
The amendment to the zoning
ordinance creates such uses and
allows related structures that
would be necessary for the use as
long as the board of adjustment
approves the special exception.
Under the existing zoning
ordinance, these uses are not
permitted in Residential I.
Next meeting
At the next meeting of the
Dunn County Board in February,
board members will consider the
zoning amendments for a second
reading and approval.
The zoning ordinance
amendments would go into effect
after official publication.
Calvin Christianson,
county board supervisor from
Menomonie, wondered if the
zoning amendments would have
to go back to the town boards for
approval.
The amendments are not a
comprehensive rezone, so the
amendments do not have to go back
to the town boards for approval,
said Bob Walter, county board
supervisor from Menomonie and
chair of the Planning, Resources
and Development Committee.
The Dunn County Board meets
next on February 18.

HE IS A GREAT SPEAKER!
For the sixth time in six years I watched President Obama deliver
his State of the Union address last week. He does a very good job of
speaking and putting his message forward.
I don’t remember if I watched all the State of the Union from former
presidents. But then, I believed what they had to say and do, would not
have a negative affect on my life, or my pocket book.
Do I disagree with everything that President Obama had to say and
what course he wants this country to take? Of course not, but then I
do not agree with many of the things that he wants this country to do,
especially things that we cannot afford. We are already $17 trillion
dollars in debt. We have created a society where half of us live off the
government and he wants more immigrants on the rolls and that will
milk the public treasury of money they we do not have.
He wants to move government benefits that currently are available
to the poor moved into the middle class, plus adding many new items.
He wants to play Robin Hood. Taking from the rich and giving it to
the poor. Except, now he calls it the middle class. I wonder where the
money will come from, to support his vision.
His idea of supporting the middle class will have a very strong
negative impact on business, especially the small towns. He wants
new taxes, indicating that the wealthy can pay more. He wants to tax
educational savings accounts.
An item that I heard on Friday was that he has a couple hundred
thousand dollars in a mattress for his daughter’s education. But
according to the aired story, he will not have to pay tax on that because
he will be grandfathered in.
The federal government is very dysfunctional, nothing has moved
out of the senate in the past couple of years. I was hopeful that with the
Republicans taking control of both houses that something would move.
But, the difference in the thinking of the President and the congress is so
far apart, that I cannot see anything coming together in a compromise.
I was appalled at him for taking credit for the lower gas prices at
the pump, saying: “The average family will save some $700 annually
because of the lower gas prices.” I will wait and see what he does with
the Keystone Pipe Line bill that will be coming out of the senate shortly.
With the thought about gas prices in mind, I read a front page story
in the Barron News-Shield last week about what affect the drop in oil
prices would have on the Frac sand industry.
According to the story, Superior Silica Sand will not curtail its
operation in Barron County during 2015, CEO Rick Shearer said. If
anything, the Texas-based mining and processing company has plans
to expand in the coming year.
“One factor is as simple as having rail cars,” Shearer said. “We went
from 2,300 a year ago to 5,800.” The company expects to have 6,000 cars
in place soon, and is aiming at 11,000 in a year, he indicated.

Local hardware stores are unable to secure a single pound of
nails from the factories or wholesalers at the present time, and only a
limited quantity for delivery next
spring. Those who are intending
to build next year should see one
of the local dealers at once and
arrange for a supply. The unusual
shortage is largely due to the coal
and steel strikes.
The Ward Hardware Co., ever

Semester 2014.
Students on the Dean’s List

Special Education in the College
of Education and Human Service
Professions.
C E S A # 11 H e a d S t a r t
announces that it has received
a $47,510 grant from the Otto
Bremer Foundation. The grant
specifically targets three health
and safety needs of the lowincome families in their care:
CPR/AED training, basic first aid
training and supplies, and suicide
prevention.
CESA #11 Head Start serves
income eligible families in
Western Wisconsin from Barron,
Chippewa, Dunn, Pepin, Pierce,
Polk and St. Croix counties. They
have 708 children enrolled and
serve pregnant moms, infants, and
toddlers to age 5 through centerbased classroom, combination
classroom/home visit options,
full home visit programming and
programs specifically targeting
pregnant and parenting teens.
Through the grant funds
received, 425 families will
receive Heart Saver CPR/AED
training either on-site or through
partnerships with community
agencies. For those families
not able to attend the training
due to health or transportation
restrictions, DVD based kits have
been purchased for each home
visit team to provide training oneon-one in the home. In addition
to CPR, the grant will provide
funding for basic first aid training
at each site and complete first aid
supply kits will be distributed to
all families in their program. Head
Start plans to collaborate with
their community partners, such
as EMT’s or local health clinics,
to provide this training in-house
to the families.
The program expects these
trainings to provide critical selfhelp skills to over 500 low-income
families in Western Wisconsin
this year alone. Learning these
skills will not only help caregivers
know what to do in family crisis
situations, but also will assist
them with basic skills to help their
neighbors and actively engage in
their communities.
Finally, Head Start staff will
be receiving training on suicide
prevention. According to the
Burden of Suicide in Wisconsin
Report published in 2014, counties
clustered in the Northern and
Western regions of Wisconsin
experienced the highest suicide
rates in the state. They point
to the frequency of crises,
physical and health problems, job
problems, and other life stressors
as circumstances of suicide and
the need for suicide prevention
programming in settings where
individuals experiencing such
stressors are likely to be found.

Lady Bulldogs defeated on the court by Vikings and Orioles
By Kelsie Hoitomt
On Thursday night the
Boyceville girls basketball team
traveled to Colfax to face off
against the number one team in
the Dunn-St. Croix Conference.
To say the night was unusual is
an understatement. The Bulldogs
scored just 18 points in the entire
32 minutes of play with six twopoint shots, one triple and three
field goals made.
The Vikings who are currently
undefeated in the conference
played one of their worst games of
the season as well with 28 points
scored on their end, the lowest of
the year.
The game started with both
teams scoring two points in
the first quarter. The Bulldogs’
Shyanne Marlett put in the basket
for her team and then Karina Wait
scored for the Vikings.
The Vikings went to their
outside game in the second quarter
with two three pointers dropped in
and a double for eight points.
That gave them a 10-4 lead at
the half as the Bulldogs scored
only one basket again in the
second, which came from Marlett
once again.
Out of the break, the Bulldogs
played their best offensive game
with eight points scored.
Morgan Kuhn put down the
team’s first and only three pointer
and Cassie Malean scored her first
double of the game. Madysn Riek
also got in the action with three
out of four free throws made.
The Vikings also had their
highest scoring quarter in the
third with ten points posted,
which put the score at 20-12 going
into the fourth.
The final eight minutes were
a lull just as the rest of the game
with seven total baskets made
between the two teams.
The Bulldogs scored six total
points to end the game with three
doubles scored; two from Malean
and one from Kuhn.
The Vikings ended with the
28-18 win after Danielle Dachel
scored two triples and two free
throws.
Malean’s three doubles gave
her six total points, which was the
highest amongst her teammates.
Kuhn followed with five, Marlett
had four and Riek had three.

Hosting the Orioles
On Saturday, the girls played
a double-header with the boys
team against Stanley-Boyd. They
doubled their points scored, but
still lost 44-36.
The Bulldogs trailed by three to
start with the first quarter score
at 13-10. The posted eight points
in the second quarter against the
Orioles’ seven, which put them
down by two at the half.
Lexi Peterson hit a three in the
first and second quarters. Marlett
had two doubles and one free
throw in the first and Malean also
had a double in the first. Malean
finished with a double and a triple
scored in the second.
As hard as they tried, it seemed
for every basket they scored the
Orioles answered back with one
of their own.
The Bulldogs couldn’t catch up
and soon they were down by five
going into the final eight minutes
with the score at 30-25.
Abbey Bird scored a double
for the Bulldogs and a triple in
the third quarter for five of their
seven points. Brooklyn Hellmann
scored the rest with two free
throws made.
The Orioles turned up the heat
in the fourth quarter with 14
points posted to the Bulldogs’ 11
for a final score of 44-36.
Bird finished with two doubles
in the fourth. Hellmann and
Malean each had one and Marki
Lagerstrom made a free throw and
then a double.
Malean and Bird led in points
with nine each from three doubles
and one triple.
Lexi Peterson followed with six
from her two triples. Then it was
Marlett with five from two doubles
and one free throw.
Hellmann finished with four
points from one double and two
free throws and Marki Lagerstrom
had one double and one free throw.
That was just one of four
straight home games the Bulldogs
host. They were at home against
Elk Mound on Tuesday (Jan. 27)
and they will be back on Monday,
February 2 to play against Bloomer
and then Thursday, February 5
they will host the Hilltoppers.
Bulldog boys finish 2-1 against Panthers, Cardinals and Orioles
By Kelsie Hoitomt
BOYCEVILLE — The
Boyceville boys basketball team
started their week of play with a
game at home against St. Croix
Central last Tuesday.
They were back home Friday
night to host Spring Valley and
then Saturday they played a nonconference game against StanleyBoyd.
Central gets the win
T h e l o s s Tu e s d a y n i g h t
dropped the Bulldogs to 1-6 in
the conference and bumped the
Panthers to 4-3.
The Bulldogs trailed by four
points at the start of that game
with the score at 12-8 with Jake
McIntyre and Mitch Leach each
scoring two baskets for their team.
The second quarter was a wash
with both teams posting six points,
which kept the score difference
at four.
Hunter Anderson scored his
first bucket of the game and then
Leach and McIntyre each knocked
one in again before the half.
Out of the break, the scoreboard
read 18-14 with the Panthers up.
The four point deficit changed to
an 11 point difference after they
only scored another six points
in the third and allowed the
Panthers to post 13.
The first foul shots from the
Bulldogs were taken in those eight
minutes with Anderson, McIntyre
and Tyler Draeger on the line.
Draeger scored both of his
attempts and then Anderson
drained a two and so did Justin
Schulz for the Bulldogs’ first
points of the second half.
By this time the Bulldogs trailed
31-20. They scored four points in
the opening of the fourth quarter,
but for nearly five minutes they
went without a basket.
The clock had less than two
minutes on it when they turned up
the heat and scored a three from
Anderson and a double from Brady
Schutts and Leach.
They scored 11 final points to
the Panthers 14, which put the
final score at 45-31.
There were plenty of fouls
called against the Bulldogs this
game. They put the Panthers on
the line for 22 attempts, which
they were successful with 14.
As for the Bulldogs themselves,
they had eight attempts and just
two baskets were made.
Leach led in points with ten
from his five doubles. McIntyre
LOOKING TO LAY the ball up during a drive to the basket was the
Bulldogs’ Hunter Anderson. The junior finished with six points in the
Bulldogs 38-35 win over the Cardinals.

followed with eight from four
doubles. Anderson finished with
seven from two doubles and one
triple. And Schutts, Schulz and
Draeger each finished with two
points.
Victory at home
The Bulldogs had redemption
on their mind Friday night. They
had just lost to the Panthers and
earlier in the year the Cardinals
beat them 56-45 so it was their
turn.
They were down by seven at
the half, but a solid second half
performance led them a three
point victory of 38-35.
The Bulldogs trailed 13-6 after
the first quarter with two shots
from McIntyre scored and one
from Schutts to put the team on
the board.
Leach drove three shots to the
hoop in the second quarter for
six of their eight points scored.
Schutts was consistent with
another basket scored as well.
By the half, the Bulldogs were
trailing 21-14 with four free
throws missed. The Cardinals had
knocked in a three pointer in the
first to help push them ahead, but
they were shooting poorly from the
foul line as well.
The third quarter was the
game changer. The Cardinals
apparently didn’t leave the locker
room as they scored just four
points from two free throws and
a double.
The Bulldogs went off with
almost each player getting a feel
for the ball. McIntyre knocked
in a double and then drained a
three. Leach had a double and a
free throw and then Schutts and
Anderson both had one double.
That was enough to give the
Bulldogs their first quarter lead of
the game as the scoreboard read
26-25 going into the fourth.
It was a bit of a nail biter for the
fans, but the Bulldogs managed to
keep their composure and drive
shots to the hoop for the three
point win.
Boda and Anderson put up two
doubles each and McIntyre and
Schutts banked one off the glass.
For the Bulldogs, it was
McIntyre who led in points with
11. He had four doubles and one
triple. Leach followed with nine
from four doubles and one free
throw.
Then it was Schutts with eight
from four doubles. Anderson had
three doubles and Boda had two.
Orioles fly home with a loss
On Saturday, the Bulldogs
started strong with 13 points
scored in the first quarter against
Stanley-Boyd’s nine. That was the
last quarter lead the boys would
hold until the very end.
The Bulldogs fell off the grid in
the second quarter with only two
points scored, which came from a
free throw by Schutts and Leach.
That lack in points allowed the
Orioles to take a four point lead
of 19-15 going into the half time
break.
The Bulldogs needed one more
basket to tie the game, but the
buzzer rang too soon so they
trailed 27-25 going into the fourth.
Just like the previous game
against the Cardinals, the fourth
quarter was a on the edge of your

The Bulldogs made key free
throws to pull ahead by five, which
they maintained as the clock hit
zero with the final score at 38-33.
Leach made six doubles that
game and had one free throw to
lead in points with 13. McIntyre
was one point behind with 12 from
four doubles and he made four out
of his six free throws.
Schutts finished with five from
two doubles and one free throw
out of six made. Boda and Schulz
each had four points from their
two doubles.
The Bulldogs had a few days off
from play. They will resume this
Thursday, January 29 with a game
at home against Cornell. They
will then hit the road Tuesday,
February 3 for a contest in Colfax.

Lady Toppers boast high scoring quarters in games against Wolves and Bears
By Kelsie Hoitomt
The Glenwood City girls
basketball team won their sixth
straight game in a row after
beating the Elmwood/Plum City
Wolves 66-33 last Thursday night.
They hit the road two days
later for a contest in Clayton,
which ended in an upset with the
Toppers losing 53-48.
Big win at home
Their game against the Wolves
was the highest scoring contest
the Toppers have played this
season.
Their road to victory began
with an outstanding first quarter
of ball played; one of their best this
year. The Toppers posted 25 points
in the opening eight minutes with
five three point shots made, three
doubles and four free throws.
Senior Jen Kopacz was on fire.
She has been a quiet player this
year for the Topper team, but she
made her presence known from
the start.
She started the game by
draining two free throws. Then
she sunk a three, drove in a
double, drained another free
and finished with two more free
throws.
Backing her up on the court
was Moriah Kuehndorf who had a
triple to start the game and then
two doubles. Morgan Kadinger
came out swinging as well with
two three point shots of her own
made.
The girls were on fire with a 2510 lead going into the second. They
stayed consistent on the court for
the remainder of the game with 13
points scored in both the second
and third quarters and then they
finished with 15 in the fourth.
There was action from new
players in the second quarter with
Jenesa Klinger scoring a double
and one free throw.
Mikaela Voeltz also took her
first basket with a double and so
did Maya Petersen. And Gabby
Peterson made a free throw.
In the third quarter Peterson
and Kuehndorf each made two
doubles and Voeltz and Klinger
contest.
The Toppers trailed 27-10 at
the half after scoring zero points
in the second quarter against the
Bears.
They came back with 10
points scored in the third and a
staggering 28 in the fourth, which
gave them at a five point loss of
53-48 as the buzzer rang.
Now that is impressive when
you look at it considering the
Bears are a division ranked team
with just one loss on their record
in the 2014-15 season.
They ran a nine game winning
streak to start the year and then
lost to Cameron at the beginning
of the month. Since that loss they
have been back on a winning
streak with four games in a row.
In the first quarter, Kadinger
pushed in two doubles and
Kuehndorf had one followed by
two free throws. Peterson scored
two free throws as well for the
Toppers only points of the first
half.
A major “talking to” was had
during the half time break. The
Toppers emerged from the locker
room a different team with a new
mindset.
They started to run a press

By Kelsie Hoitomt
The Glenwood City boys’
basketball team played in Clayton
last Saturday and won 52-43. They
were at home Monday night to
host Prescott, which ended in a
loss of 80-40.
Toppled the Bears
The Clayton Bears are currently
2-3 in their Lakeland-Central
Conference with a ten game losing
streak under their shoes after
Saturday’s loss.
The Toppers played three solid
quarters of ball with 19 points
scored in the third quarter that set
the pace towards victory.
To d d P e t e r s e n c a m e o u t
swinging with an aggressive
attitude that allowed him to push
in four shots for eight of their 19
points.
Backing him up were
teammates Marcus Kadinger,
Nick Schone and Jake Hierlmeier.
Kadinger drove in a double and
then hit a three and Hierlmeier
and Schone each drained a triple
as well.
The score was 19-11 after the
first quarter and 31-18 going into
the half after the Toppers posted
12 points from one triple and four
doubles.
Petersen was scoreless in the
second quarter, but he got back
into the action after the half time
break with four additional doubles
scored and a free throw.
Hierlmeier was active under
the net as well with two shots of
his own and then Kadinger took
one for himself. That gave the
Toppers 13 total points for a 46-33
lead going into the fourth.
That was enough of a lead to
provide them with cushion, which
was a real benefit considering they
scored six points to the Bears’ ten
in the fourth.
The Toppers finished with 17
doubles, four triples and six out
of six free throws made.
Petersen led the game with 21
points from his eight doubles and
he was perfection from the line
with five out of five free throws
made.
Kadinger followed with nine
points from his three doubles and
one triple. Hierlmeier finished
with two doubles and one triple
for seven.
Kip Wallace had one double
and one triple for five. Schone and
Nate Mrdutt each had three and
Bill Norenberg and Joel Ormson
had two.
Beat up at home
The game against the Prescott
Cardinals was brutal to say the
least. They are the toughest team
the Toppers have faced this season
and they proved that with an 8040 whipping.
The Cardinals are however
ranked number two in Division 3
and they are currently number one
in their Middle Border Conference.
They are 15-1 overall with their
one loss coming from Regis in a
49-45 final.
The game started with the
Toppers down 18-7 with Norenberg
and Kadinger each driving in for
a double and Hierlmeier knocked
down a three.
The Cardinals stayed consistent
with an additional 18 points
posted in the second quarter to the
Toppers’ nine.
This time it was Wallace with
a three, Kadinger scored another
ST. CROIX FALLS — Featuring 18 teams and nearly 60 stateranked wrestlers from Minnesota
and Wisconsin, the annual St.
Croix Falls Invitational is quickly becoming a mini Northern
Badger.
And that is just fine with Boyceville.
Many of Boyceville’s wrestlers
performed well at the invitational
held this past Saturday, January
24 which served as a high-caliber
tune-up for the upcoming state
tournament series which gets
underway Feb. 14 with regional
action.
Boyceville had ten wrestlers
place in this year’s St. Croix Falls
tournament led by sophomore
James Palmer, who finished second at 120 pounds. Three other
Bulldogs finished in third place
- senior Austin Wolfe (113) and
freshmen Cody Frederick (138)
and Garrett Joles (170) - to help
Boyceville to a third place finish
with 135 points; one point ahead
of Princeton, MN.
In addition, the Bulldogs had
a trio of fourth place finishers as
well as one each in sixth, seventh
and eight place.
Division 1 power Wisconsin
Rapids, fourth in the latest big
school poll, won the tournament
team title with 236 points. Fifth
ranked Hudson, out of the Big
Rivers Conference, took second
with 195 points. Division 2’s fifthranked squad, Amery, placed fifth
at 121.5 points.
Boyceville was the only DunnSt. Croix school to participate in
the invitational.
Palmer, who finished the day
at 3-1 along with Wolfe, Frederick, and Joles, made the finals
with a pair of solid wins following
an opening round bye.
The sophomore, currently
ranked fifth in the most recent
D3, 120-pound weight class poll,
scored a 16-0 technical fall over
Spencer’s Caden Schillinger in
the quarterfinals. Palmer then
gritted out a well earned 4-2
semifinal win against Austin
Connor of Amery to punch his
championship match ticket.
Palmer’s title match opponent was Wisconsin Rapids’ Patrick Spray, ranked second in D1.
Palmer held his own but lost on
a 7-2 decision to finish with the
silver.
Austin Wolfe, Cody Frederick,
and Garrett Joles each rebounded from semifinals losses to secure bronze medals in their final
match of the tournament.
Senior Austin Wolfe overcame
a heartbreaking one-point (10-9)
semifinal loss to Hudson’s Jacob
Anderson at 113 pounds and was
able to secure third with a 8-6
win against Cole Britton of Luck/
Frederic/Grantsburg.
Cody Frederick opened his day
with flare. The 138-pound freshman scored a pair of second-period pins in his first two matches
before falling by a point, 6-5, to
Princeton’s Tim Bialka in the
semifinals. Frederick rebounded
in the third place match and recorded his third fall of the day,
a 1:14 fall of Luke Clark of St.
Croix Falls.
170 pounder Garrett Joles
had the Bulldogs’ quickest pin of
the tournament. He took down
Northwestern’s Jacob Carlson
just 22 seconds into their quarterfinal’s match to edge out teammate Jordan Morse, who had a 26
second pin in the opening round.
Joles, who started the day with
a bye, lost in the semifinals, 4-1,
to Jake Pramann of Princeton
but was able to cap his tournament with a 6-0 shut out win over
Tony Britton from Luck/Frederic/
Grantsburg to take third place.
Boyceville also had three other
wrestlers that lost in their thirdplace matches.
Dyllon Johnson (106), Brock
Swenson (126), and Justin Malean (145) each went 2-2 and finished fourth in the tournament.
Senior Logan McAbee-Thomas
and junior Jordan Morse both
ended the day with 3-2 marks.
McAbee-Thomas finished sixth at
182 pounds while Morse was seventh at 160 pounds.
Boyceville’s final place winner,
Jake Lake, copped eighth place at
220 pounds after finishing with a
2-3 record at St. Croix Falls.
Sam Retz (132), Alec Schaffer
(152), Noah Novotney (195), and
Jake Erickson (285) did not place.
Schaffer and Novotney went 1-2;
Retz and Erickson finished 0-2.

double and Petersen had a double
and two free throws.
Out of the half, the Toppers
had a slight increase offensively
with 11 points scored in the third
quarter. However the Cardinals
amped up their offense as well
with 19 in the third for a 55-27
lead going into the fourth.
Petersen led for his team in the
third quarter with three doubles
for six of their 11 points. Wallace
hit his second three also and
Kadinger had one double.
In the final eight minutes, the
Cardinals pushed the dagger in
further with 25 points posted to
the Toppers’ 13 for the 80-40 final.
Schone carried the team in
the final minutes with not one
but three triples scored. Backing
him up for the final points were
Hierlmeier and Kadinger with a
double each.
The Toppers finished with
ten doubles, six triples and two
out of six free throws made. The
Cardinals had 24 doubles, eight
triples and they finished eight of
11 from the line.
Petersen led with four doubles
and two free throws for ten.
Schone followed with nine from
his three triples. Kadinger had
eight from four doubles. Wallace
had two triples for six. Hierlmeier
had his one double and one triple
for five. And Norenberg finished
with one double.
The Toppers will be in Mondovi
January 29 and then they will host

Topper grapplers fall to Panthers in conference dual
By Kelsie Hoitomt
HAMMOND — The Hilltopper
wrestling team had one dual this
past week, which was Thursday
night on the road in Hammond
against the St. Croix Central
Panthers.
The Toppers may have lost 4227, but despite forfeiting three
weight classes, they remained
positive over the fact that they won
six out of the 11 other matches.
“I felt our kids showed great
character and sportsmanship
throughout the competition,” said
coach Shane Strong. “They gave
great effort and determination
every match.”
The dual started at 160 pounds
with Jake Logghe facing off
against Kyle Larson. The match
went the full six minutes and
ended in a 3-0 decision that went
in Larson’s favor.
The Panthers jumped out to
an early lead with the next three
matches resulting in team points
for them.
Trent Smith received forfeit
points for the Panthers at 170.
Then Cody Gostovich pinned
Logan Smith at 182. That left the
195 pound weight class open so
the Panthers took forfeit points.
Five matches in, the Toppers
earned their first points of the
night with Hogan Chouinard on
the mat for the 220 pound match
against Decker Grass.
Chouinard was able to put
Decker on his back, which was
enough to give him a one-point
edge that resulted in a final 3-2
decision. This point the score at
21-3 in Central’s favor.
Quinton Rogers wrestled at
heavy weight in the next match
and lost to Jake Conley by a fall
in the second period.
At the top of the roster at 106
was Austin Curvello and Zeke
Orme. Curvello put Orme on
his back and then rode out the
remainder of the time for a 4-0
lead that stuck until the buzzer
rang.
The points went back to the
Panthers’ side at the 113 match
when Jake Nyhagen beat Jake
Nadeau by an 11-4 decision.
Brad Kessler wrestled strong at
120, which resulted in the Toppers
best decision win thus far. He
earned three points for the team
after beating Frank Holter by a
6-1 decision.
The Toppers then forfeited 126
before going on a pinning streak.
They finished strong with three
of the four final matches ending in
pins and 18 team points.
Marcus Ullom started at 132
and pinned Drew Malecek in the
second period at 3:10.
Then Cody Bonte went head to
head with Connor Burton. They
fought for a while before Bonte
gained the upper hand and put
Burton on his back for the fall
at 4:40.
At 145, Jake O’Meara faced off
against Ray Gandy. Their match
was a long drawn out bout as
well, but nearly five minutes into
it, O’Meara sunk the hold and got
the pin.
The night ended with Ryan
Gulich pinning Spencer Peterson,
which put the final score at 42-27.
The Toppers faced off against
Cameron on Tuesday, and will
then face the Boyceville Bulldogs
on Thursday night. That was

Bulldog wrestlers bury Buffaloes in 73-6 dual meet victory
BOYCEVILLE — In a dual
of ailing squads, Boyceville
dominated its conference match
against Mondovi here last Thursday.
While Boyceville was without
four of its starters for the January 22 home dual, Mondovi was
missing nearly a half dozen of its
front line grapplers for various
reasons including illness and injury.
The Bulldogs were prepared
for it as they have had to contend
with missing wrestlers all year.
But the Buffaloes, evidently,
were not.
Boyceville crushed Mondovi
73-6, behind some fine performances from its backups, as it
won all but one of the 14 matches.
The Bulldogs lone setback
came at 106 pounds where they
had to forfeit to the Buffaloes because freshman Dyllon Johnson
was out with the flu. Otherwise it
may have been a shut out for the
homestanding Bulldogs.
As it was, Boyceville registered seven pins, received four
forfeits, and had one major and
another regular decision in its
13-win effort.
The win was Boyceville’s first
conference victory of the season
and evens its D-SC mark at 1-1.
Freshman
Garrett
Joles
kicked off the rout at 170 pounds
with a pin. Joles downed Jake
West in just 1:34 to give Boyceville a quick six team points.
Logan McAbee-Thomas received a forfeit at 182 pounds to
double the Bulldogs lead.
The Bulldogs would get their
third straight win in as many
matches as Noah Novotney edged
Bryce Johnson 3-2 at 195 pounds.
The Bulldogs continued to roll
in the upper weights.
Jake Lake pinned Mondovi’s
Devon Yarrington in 2:26 of the
220 pound match while Brandon
Windsor followed with a forfeit at
heavyweight.
The Buffaloes would pick up
their lone win in the following
match as 106-pounder Autumn
Washok stepped on the mat to accept the forfeit.
Boyceville got back on the winning track as it pocketed wins
in the final eight matches of the
dual.
Austin Wolfe and Jason
Swanepoel received forfeits at
113 and 120 pounds respectively.
The Bulldogs recorded five
straight pins to take a 69-6 lead.

We had some great scores this week on the bowling circuit!! Ben
Krosnoski threw a nice 276 on the Hometown League while Peg
Obermueller rolled a super 259 on the Town and Country League. Here
are some more notable scores: Lori Klinger - 234; Roger Ludtke - 233;
Bernie Severin - 232; Cindy Rassbach - 214; Peg Heutmaker - 225; Doug
Standaert - 270; Troy Elmer - 253, and Bernie Obermuller - 244. A very
difficult split conversion was made by Bill Ross on the Sat. Nite Mixed
league with a 4-7-6-10. Good job Keglers!!!
With the Big Game right around the corner, I will predict an outcome
of 35-21, Seattle. (I don't really care, being that Green bay isn't in it!!!)

The Pit Bull
A burglar broke into a warehouse and walked to the office in the back
of the building. As he entered the office a voice said, "Jesus is watching
you". He moved his flashlight beam around the room and just saw a
large pit bull dog lying near the office door behind him. The pit bull
wasn't moving so the burglar continued to look for valuables.
He again heard "Jesus is watching you." He moved the flashlight
around the room again, the pit bull had not moved. Final the light shown
on a parrot in a cage and he realized it was the parrot doing the talking.
He walked to the back of the office and shined the flashlight beam
right on the parrot and said, "You stupid bird, is that all you know how
to say?"
The parrot said in a loud voice, "NO, SIC HIM JESUS."

Pups and Gators on Puckaway
number 12 treble
Hello friends,
This job is all about having
fun in the outdoors, in a whole
bunch of different ways, while
traveling all over the upper
midwest and then writing about
it. This week I pegged out the
fun meter and watched our
golden retriever Fire, give birth
to ten pups.
Thursday, January 15th
High 29, low 16
Selina had just gone to bed
and, as usual, her pal Fire was
laying next to her. About a half
hour after we said goodnight,
Selina came down to the living
room and said “Dad, Fire is
having her pups”. That was
about ten o’clock. The first was
born in her bed; the next nine
were born in her whelping box
in the living room. There are
seven males and three females.
As of this writing, I have three
males left. If you are interested
in one of those pups get a hold
of me ASAP.
Saturday, January 17th
High 38, low 23
Five days ago my brother,
Mike, gave me a call and asked
me where I thought a good place
would be to go winter camping
and ice fishing? I was planning
on bobcat hunting (that has been
challenging) and so I figured I
would do some recon for Mike,
his 13, year-old-son Dylan
and my brother-in-law, Dick
Schuster.
My thoughts were my buddy
Captain Justin Kohn who runs
All Season’s Adventures (920229-3494). I gave Justin a call
and not only did he say fish
Puckaway but he told me that he
just put a shack on the ice that
these guys could sleep in.
A new and fun twist came
to this adventure when the cat
hunt was cancelled due to a lack
of snow and I was able to join,
Dick, Mike and Dylan.
Ye s t e r d a y w a s D i c k ’ s
birthday so of course we would
have to celebrate and the fun
began about 30-minutes after
our arrival. Mike, Dylan and I
put out 8 tip ups rigged with
12-pound fluorocarbon leaders,
hooks and
medium golden shiners.
Dick put out two tip ups and
jigged with his 3rd line. The
birthday boy had not been at
it long at all when his jig pole
started bending and the line was
peeling off his reel at a rapid
pace. Dick had a large fish on
and it was very obvious. I would
be the “gaff guy” which can be a
real losers job. After a good ten
minutes the gator was at the
bottom of the hole and I hit it
with the gaff (extremely worn
out, junk gaff of Dick’s) and was
pulling it up and out of Lake
Puckaway when the hook on
Dicks gaff straightened out and
what would be a 35-inch trophy
was off and running. I gave up
on the gaff and used two hands
and Dick was now winning our
gator contest in a solid way
Today would be a very casual
day for the four of us. Temps in
the high 30’s a steady bite with
the tip ups and as always, lots
of laughs.
On Puckaway you can keep
one northern pike and it must
be 32-inches. Some people fish
this lake for years and never
catch a “legal”.
This day our group was very
fortunate as I caught a 36 that
was a true pigasauras and
unfortunately for my brotherin-law now put his trophy in
second place.
Late in the day it was brats
on the grill and a first rate
birthday party and just before
dark Dylan had a flag and did
an excellent job of landing a 33inch gator.
We fished until the wee hours
of the next day and when we
went to bed our ambition was
a little lacking and instead
of putting up our cots we just
crashed on the floor of the shack.
At 6:10 a.m. our phones
started making noise and our
buddy Cole Koepp was on the
ice looking for us.
I must of had the flu or
something cuz I felt terrible.
Anyways one more legal
gator was caught and our simple
getaway almost has to become
annual.

TAX TIPS....
BUSINESS ALERT: CHECK YOUR
1099 FILING OBLIGATIONS
Every trade or business must file information returns (Forms 1098 and
1099) for each year that certain payments are made to non-corporate recipients. A Form 1099 is generally not needed for payments to corporate
vendors other than attorneys and corporations providing medical and
health care services.
The two most common information returns for most small businesses are Forms 1099-INT and 1099-MISC. Interest paid in the course of a
trade or business is reported on 1099-INT when the amount paid totals
$600 or more to any payee. Interest payments of $10 or more by financial
entities must be reported on Form 1099. The 1099-MISC is used to report
payments of rents or services of $600 or more in any one year to a payee.
