Boys and Girls Club, teen center to
be more accessible to Kohler youth
Kohlers among guests at
dinner honoring Queen
The Boys and Girls Club of Sheboygan
County recently purchased the former Word
of Grace church building at 121 Cedar St. in
Sheboygan Falls, and also acquired a near-
by building up the street known as the
Campfire House, which will serve as a teen
center.
Julie Steinert, a consultant for the Boys
and Girls Club Foundation, said this is
exciting news for Kohler kids. The new
Sheboygan Falls location opens the doors of
opportunity for Kohler kids to have a
Positive Place to go. Beyond the fantastic
programs offered, such as homework assi-
tance, leadership building, mentoring, expo-
sure to the arts, access to technology, and
fitness, our goal is to make the Boys & Girls
Club The Place To Be! said Steinert. In
addition, the teen center will allow high
school kids a place to hang out in a super-
vised, cool atmosphere. Our board of direc-
tors intends on providing cutting-edge,
state-of-the-art place(s) for our county's
youth.
Older teens interested in pursuing child-
care or teaching as a future career will also
have opportunities to provide homework
assistance to younger children.
Steinert also said she is looking into the
possibility of after-school bussing from
Kohler School to the Boys and Girls
Club/Teen Center facilities.
The Boys and Girls Club hours are typi-
cally from after school until 8 p.m., but
closing times can vary depending upon
community dictates. The membership fee is
only $5 per year, though supplementary
donations are gratefully accepted.
Jeff Mehn, executive director of the
Boys and Girls Club of Sheboygan County,
said the Sheboygan Falls community is
excited and he is receiving calls daily ask-
ing when the facilities will open. Mehn said
hes aiming to have the facilities and pro-
grams ready by the start of this years fall
school year.
Mehn said this
exciting opportuni-
ty was made possi-
ble through the
efforts and dedication of the Girls Inc.
Holding Company and its presidents, Evy
and Bill Hoegger of Sheboygan Falls. Evy
Hoegger has a long history of service and
dedication to area youth, beginning with
her volunteer work with the Campfire Girls
in 1961 when the program was reorganized
in Sheboygan Falls after being dormant for
a number of years. The Sheboygan Falls
Campfire Girls was originally organized in
1916 when it was known as the Soloman
Circle, named after Chief Soloman, a local-
ly renounced Indian Chief.
Local businesses, industries and organi-
zations were instrumental in providing
funds to build the facility in 1959, and the
entire community was involved with the
buildings and grounds. Through the efforts
of Hoegger, the building was renovated in
1991, and its long tradition of accommodat-
ing area youth will endure as it becomes a
teen center for the Boys and Girls Club.
The acquisition of the former Word of
Grace church
building was
also made pos-
sible through
generous dona-
tions by area
b u s i n e s s e s ,
though Stenert
said the Boys
and Girls Club
will continue to solicit donations for the
$250,000 annual operating budget. The
building will also house administrative
offices, which will relocate from Howards
Grove, and the organization is looking to
hire two full-time staffers and fill seven part-
time positions for the Sheboygan Falls club.
Herbert V. Kohler Jr. and wife,
Natalie, were among 134 guests at
President Bushs first white-tie dinner
of his presidency, held May 7 in honor
of the visiting Queen Elizabeth II and
her husband, Prince Philip, the Duke of
Edinburgh.
The guest list also included such
notables as former First Lady Nancy
Reagan; Peyton Manning, quarterback
of the Indianapolis Colts; former
Secretary of State Henry A. Kissinger;
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi; Vice
President Dick Cheney; golfer Arnold
Palmer; Kentucky Derby winning jock-
ey Calvin Borel, along with a number of
White House officials, professional ath-
letes, journalists, and business owners.
Described as the most elegant
Washington evening in a decade, guests
in white ties and tails and stately gowns
dined on a five-course meal beginning
with spring pea soup with fernleaf
lavender and caviar, proceeding to Dover
sole almondine, followed by a saddle of
spring lamb, an arugula salad served
with a trio of farmhouse cheese, and end-
ing with a dessert of Rose Blossoms
petit fors with sugar replica of the
queen's 1953 coronation rose.
Wines served included Newton
Chardonnay Unfiltered 2004, Peter
Michael Les Pavots 2003, and
Schramsberg Brut Rose 2004.
Tables were adorned with Cream
Damask tablecloths and Vermeil center-
pieces of 60 white roses, and the queen
and guests ate from the Clinton set, ivory
china with a gold rim and a gold depic-
tion of the White House in the center.
Also among the guests was virtuoso
violinist Itzhak Perlman, who performed
after the meal.
The queens visit to the United States
was the first since 1991, when George
H.W. Bush was president.

Retired physician caps off
$1 million challenge grant
for Community Hospice
In April, an anonymous donor chal-
lenged the community with a dollar-for-dol-
lar matching grant up to $1 million to com-
plete the Sharon S. Richardson Community
Hospice Building Campaign by May 1st. It
was an opportunity to double the impact of
every new pledge or gift in the final stage of
the campaign with approximately $5 million
of the $7 million needed to build the first
residential hospice facility in Sheboygan
County.
Linda Cates, Director of Development &
Communications reports that the communi-
ty response was
impressive and
d o n a t i o n s
exceeded the $1
million goal
when retired
physician Dr.
Christopher Graf
visited the office
on the eighth
anniversary of
his wife Janets
death to present
a check for $10,000 in her memory. I
know how difficult it can be for the care-
givers, and Sharon and my Janet were good
friends. It was a relationship built during
their courageous battle with cancer begin-
ning over 20 years ago. It can be over-
whelming to the families it takes every-
thing they have, and the specialized sup-
port of a hospice team is critical as patients
and their loved ones face the end-of-life,
said Dr. Graf.
Dr. Graf, along with over 1,219 other
donors, contributed to the building cam-
paign, which was initiated on June 22,
2006 at the Groundbreaking hosted by
ACUITY.
Cates said the gratitude of Joe
Richardson II and his children, the
Hospice Team,
Board of
Directors, and

duct a womens self-defense program called

ual assault, and research on the effective-
ness of resisting rape.

ticipate in the program on June 23 from 9
am - 3 pm (with a 30 minute break) in the

donated to Safe Harbor). Class size is 10-30
participants. Mothers, daughters and col-
lege-bound women are encouraged to par-
ticipate.
Informational pamphlets and registra-

Kohler kids appear in Better Homes and
Gardens Diabetic Living magazine
By Mary Struck, editor/publisher
There are some familiar faces appearing in
the current summer issue of Diabetic Living
magazine, published by Better Homes and
Gardens.
Nicole and Kyle Struck of Kohler spent
two days learning the ins and outs of maga-
zine photo shoots when the magazine for dia-
betics did a feature story on their grandmoth-
er, Rosalie Misco of Appleton.
After Rosalie and husband, Billy Joe, were
both diagnosed with Type II diabetes,
Grandma Misco set out to control their con-
dition through diet and exercise. The maga-
zine article focuses on how their love of gar-
dening helps fulfill both their diet and excer-
cise goals.
After researching which foods help keep
blood glucose levels in check and experiment-
ing with ingredient substitutions in her daily
cooking, Misco submitted some of her recipes
to Diabetic Living. The editor, Julia
Martinusen, was fascinated with Miscos gar-
dening and creative recipes, so she brought
her crew and their trailer full of props, cook-
ware, and grocery shopping list to Appleton to
do a feature story on Misco. The grandchil-
dren were summoned to accompany their
grandmother in the photo shoots.
The chef prepared the recipes on-site,
modifying the recipes to make the final prod-
uct appealing in photographs. If the product
didnt pass test shots taken with a Polaroid
camera, the chef was sent back to the kitchen
to start over. An outdoor shot of a vegetable
frittata took three hours to photograph as the
photographer and prop stylist waited for just
the right sunlight and shadows. In some cases,
it required waiting for the sun to peek out of a
cloud at just the right time in just the right
position in the sky to cast the perfect light on
the prop through tree leaves and garden lat-
tice. The photographer assisted Mother
Nature by maneuvering a tall pole with artifi-
cial leaves attached at the top.
Once the Polaroids were approved by the
prop stylist and editor, the final photographs
were taken with a professional digital camera.
Nicole, 15, Kyle, 12, and their cousins
Jesse and Shelly Misco (9 and 13) had to be
on standby for two days for their turn in front
of the camera.
Nicole said she enjoyed observing all that
went into the meticulous production, but she
especially liked being chosen to hand model a
salad because, she said, the salad was so col-
orful and perfectly arranged. (The final
photo appears on page 91 of the current issue).
The crew told Nicole she had a future in hand
modeling because of her patience and ability
to stand perfectly still through the hour-long
process, which required many retakes and
achieving just the right pose.
Kyle didnt care for having to sit around
all day keeping his clothes nice and waiting to
be called for the photo shoots, but he did
enjoy eating the prop cookies after the final
shoot. And the drudgery of waiting around
was forgotten when a couple of generous (and
unexpected) paychecks arrived in the mail for
all their hard work.
The article, entitled Blooming Good
Health, begins on page 86 in the summer
2007 issue of Diabeteic Living, which is cur-
rently on display until July 31. The magazine
can be found in the book and magazine aisle
at Shopko, and a copy is on hand at Kohler
Public Library.
Nicole Struck poses with a garden salad as photographer Pete Krumhardt adjusts lighting. Diabetic Living Editor Julia Martinusen (foreground), prop
stylist Sue Mitchell, and chef Chris Smith give direction and consultation.
Photographer Pete Krumhardt photographs Klye Struck (middle) along with cousins Jesse and
Shelly Misco as they sample the prop cookies.

An Old Fashioned
Mothers Day Tea with
a Modern Twist
Kohler first graders in Mary Nebels
room honored their mothers in a special
way this May. The children serenaded their
mothers with I'm a Little Teapot and
You are my Sunshine. The familiar song
You Are the Cream in my Coffee was the
model used when writing what their moth-
ers meant to them. A PowerPoint presenta-
tion was made by the children entitled,
You Mean So Many Things to Me, where
the first graders expressed their love for
their moms with original phrases like You
are the snuggle in my blankets, You are
the colors of the sunset, You are the
ketchup on my hotdog and You are the
sizzle in my frying pan of life.

Valicenti is sixth grade
chess tournament champ
Onlookers Abby Lee, Karianna Heins, and Connor Hogan watch as Tim Valicenti (right) makes a
move against Kyle Struck (left).
Tim Valicenti is this years sixth grade
chess champion after winning the final
match against runner-up Kyle Struck.
Tim said he moved his rook from
square 1 to square 8, then Kyle moved his
knight to the right in the L pattern, so
Tim came from the left for the checkmate.
The chess tournament takes place each
year as challengers face off during their free
time. The results of each match are kept on
a large flowchart taped to the wall outside
the sixth grade classrooms.
Making it to the final four this year were
Tim Valicenti, Kyle Struck, Nate Tures, and
Tyler Lewis.

camping, and nature lessons. Kohler stu-
dents shared this experience with students

brought two communities together for this
fun and exciting experience. The Physical
Education department would like to thank
the Kohler Kiwanis for their generous
donation to help fund this trip. Participants
included Erie Clark, Josh Cole, Angela
Limberg, Parker Wolf, Matt Schaetz, Molly

they be required to attend study halls. However, EVERY
OTHER CLASS IS SCHEDULED TO MEET FOR
THE ENTIRE TIME PERIOD INDICATED. Students
may use the library for supervised study on both days
from 8:00 AM until 3:30 PM.
Buses
School buses will follow regular schedules. If students
decide to come only for scheduled tests, responsibility for
transportation belongs to the parents and the student.
The All-School Arts
Festival that was held on
May 17th was a
huge success!
The students' hard work and
Creative displays were
enjoyed by many.
Congratulations to the following

MIDDLE SCHOOL TRACK
Coach Bocchini
We had another fantastic year in Middle School Track.
Fourty athletes chose to work hard and see the payoff of
that hard work. We had four track meets and although
there wasnt a personal best at every meet, it was a great
experience and lots of smiles and laughter and improve-
ment. Coach Dumez is very excited about the future of
his varsity program.
We had two new additions to the coaching staff: Coach
Gebler was our high jump coach and Coach Buhr (yeah -
you know the one) was the shot and discuss coach. Coach
Frantz kept the kids moving and we even had a track clin-
ic run by Kelsey Jordans (6th grade) grandma, Barb
Jordan. She is a Senior Olympic Track Champion. It was
fun for the kids and very informative for the coaching
staff.
Remember - keep running (the bowl is calling your name),
jumping and throwing all year long.
A teammate is made during the season.
An athlete is made all year long.
Thank you parents and students for another fun year.
Dont forget to sign up for the Performance Camp starting
June 13 (take your talent in all you do to the next level) -
forms are in the High School Office.
See you next April!!!!

JUNE, 2007

A couple of weeks ago, I
wrote about the wonderful
opportunity our state
affords anglers with its vast
amount of clean lakes and
rivers. However, we now
know that the fish popula-
tion in these waterways is
under attack by a deadly
new fish virus that caused
huge fish kills in several
eastern Great Lakes in
2005 and 2006, called Viral
Hemorrhagic Septicemia, or VHS
virus.
VHS was found in Lake Huron in
2005. By 2006, the virus spread to
Lake Erie and had also been found
in an inland lake in New York State.
The Wisconsin DNR has reported
that VHS is most likely present in
Lake Michigan, and also may have
spread to Lake Superior and the
Mississippi River. What is more trou-
bling is that the fish in two
Wisconsin waterways (Little Lake
Butte des Morts and Lake
Winnebago) have tested positively
for VHS.
The DNR has taken action and as
of April 2007, the following
Emergency Rules are in effect in
order to help keep fish healthy:
Drain all water from your boat,
trailer, bait buckets, coolers, and
other containers before you leave
the landing or shore fishing site
location on Lake Michigan, Lake
Superior, the Mississippi River or
their tributaries.*
Do not transport live fish, includ-
ing bait fish, away from any Great
Lakes or Mississippi River
drainage landing or shore fishing
location. This includes tributaries
up to the first dam.*
Do not use "cut" or dead bait from
other waters (except when fishing
in Lake Michigan, Green Bay, or
tributaries).
Do not use minnows unless they
were purchased from a Wisconsin
bait dealer or you legally caught
the minnows from the place you
are fishing.
* It is also recommended that fishers
in the Wisconsin waterways already
found to be infected follow these
rules as well.
Also, the DNR states that drain-
ing all water from boats and boating
and fishing equipment is strongly
recommended after boating or fish-
ing on all Wisconsin waters. As is
inspecting your boat and trailer and
removing all visible plants and ani-
mals. These steps will help prevent
the spread of other diseases and
invasive species.
Emergency fishing rules
in effect
At a time when over 600,000 individuals
declared bankruptcy nationwide last
year and 87,000 homes were fore-
closed on in April alone, it is more
important than ever to become educat-
ed about personal finances. That is why
I encourage you to mark your
calendars for a week of free
seminars and presentations
entitled Money Smart Week
Wisconsin (October 7-13)
which is designed to improve
financial literacy for all
Wisconsin residents!
Last year in Sheboygan
County alone over 1,400 resi-
dents attended seminars in
Sheboygan, Plymouth,
Sheboygan Falls, Kohler, and Howards
Grove regarding automobile financing,
budgeting and saving, credit, home buy-
ing, identify theft, income taxes, insur-
ance, retirement planning and student
loans. Attendance in Manitowoc was
equally impressive.
This year over 100 presentations
have been planned to take place in both
Sheboygan and Manitowoc Counties.
While many of the topics are already
set, the committees in Sheboygan and
Manitowoc are looking for partners to
help with Money Smart Week 2007.
This event is not intended for busi-
nesses to advertise their products; pre-
senters at Money Smart Week
Wisconsin are not allowed to promote
themselves or their businesses. It is a
great opportunity for your business to
help educate our citizens on important
financial matters.
If you want to make a presentation or
Are You Money Smart?
Updates From Our State Representatives
More than 25 different
species of fish found in
Wisconsin's lakes are sus-
ceptible to the VHS virus,
making this outbreak the first
disease that affects this
many different families of
fish. VHS is not a native
species, but the DNR is
unsure as to how it was intro-
duced into the Great Lakes
water system.
According to the Wisconsin DNR,
VHS is spread via fish urine and fluids
and has the ability to live in water for at
least 14 days. The virus is caught in
the fish's gills and within two days, the
fish begins to spread the virus in the
water. Thus, water discharged from
live wells, bilges and bait buckets can
spread the virus from infected waters
to clean areas. Moving live, infected
fish from one location to another will
also spread the virus. Fish can
become infected by eating an infected
fish as well. Other ways that the virus
may be spread include natural fish
movements, recreational
boating/angling, birds, ballast water
discharge, and research activities.
The clinical signs of VHS may
include hemorrhaging (bleeding),
unusual behavior, anemia, bulging
eyes, bloated abdomens, and the rapid
onset of death; however, these symp-
toms could apply to many different fish
diseases. VHS must be confirmed by
lab tests. Additionally, some infected
fish may not show any signs and trans-
porting these fish to new locations
could spread the disease to new
waters. If you find a number of dead
fish that exhibit these signs of VHS,
you can contact the following DNR
tipline at 1-800-TIP-WDNR (1-800-
847-9367) or #367 by cellular phone (a
free call for U.S. Cellular customers).
Together, we can work to stop the
spread of this deadly virus in our
state's waterways. Anglers and recre-
ational boaters must be thoughtful and
follow the previously mentioned
Emergency Rules. If you would like
more information about VHS, you can
visit the Department of Natural
Resource's webpage at
http://dnr.wi.gov/fish/pages/vhs.html.

Plug & Play Signal
Mirror
Kit offered for a number
of vehicles
A new plug & play Signal Mirror
kit from Muth Mirror Systems can be
installed quickly and easily. The plug and
play applies to both the Signal feature
and the heat (if a heated kit is purchased).
The kit is designed to
retrofit five vehicles
including Buick
Rainier (MY 04-
07), Chevy
Trailblazer (MY 02-
07), GMC Envoy
(MY 02-07), Isuzu
Ascender (MY 03-05), and Oldsmobile
Bravada (MY 02-04). As with all
Signal Mirrors, professional installation
is still recommended.
The new plug & play kit is part #220-
0268-0 with a suggested retail price of
$359 and part #220-0268-H for $399 for
the heated kit. Each kit comes complete
with one left and one right hand Signal
Mirror including the full housing, all nec-
essary wiring and an installation manual.
Upgrade modules make Signal Mirrors
even more of a safety accessory. The Brake
Module adds a steady on signal in both mir-
rors. And, the MultiFunction Module adds
four alerts including a strobing reverse, brake,
door open, and alarm tick.
Signal Mirrors,
activated by the turn indi-
cator, display flashing
LEDs Through-The-
Glass of the correspon-
ding side mirror to alert
drivers in the blind
spots. To remind the driver the mirrors are
active there is a subtle tell-tale display.
Adjacent drivers see only the attention-get-
ting chevron which helps prevent accidents.
When hazard lights are used, signals flash in
both mirrors.
Visit www.muthco.com to see Signal
Mirrors in action, search by specific
vehicle, and to order. For vehicles that a spe-
cific kit is not offered for, Wide Angle
Signal Mirrors are available.

GET A CLUE @ YOUR LIBRARY
SUMMER READING
Last year I bought a few books on cooking,
gardening and decorating for adults as
reading prizes. I had people come up to
me at the end of summer and say they had-
nt made a regular habit of reading but they
wanted a certain book so they read. This
year I bought even more books on cooking,
gardening, decorating, parenting, and knit-
ting because people were so happy. This
year we are even going to have some pro-
grams geared to adults. Knitting will be
taught by the owner of the Bahr Creek
Llama Yarn Shop. I was at the Sewing
Basket in Plymouth and saw a really cool
scrap scarf. It is a class that they teach so
they will be coming to teach it at the
library. The teacher said if she knows
ahead of time the color you want for the
scarf she will try to accommodate you.
There will be some charges for supplies for
these classes.
It made me laugh and feel good when I
went to work and one of the library staff
said she was going to sign up this year. It
is so important for kids to see that adults
value reading. Luckily, I had my camera
with me last year and I got one of the best
pictures of the summer when I came up
behind a dad sitting on the grass, in his
shorts, in the sun with a book in his lap
reading.
The summer reading program is for non-
readers (as long as family and friends read
to them) and independent readers. Sharing
reading with an independent reader is also
great fun. My son was an independent
reader when I bought a copy of Winnie the
Pooh which neither of us had read. We
took turns reading it. I will never, ever
throw that book away because it is now
imbued with so many wonderful memories
and laughs. Maybe this summer you might
want to share a book with a young person
and both of you earn a prize.
Research has shown that just the act of
reading keeps kids skill levels high. Kids
dont need to read at grade level to keep
their skills. I try to buy prize books that are
fun and might encourage kids to want to
read. This year I have the coolest spy
books with a Caesars code attached.
Here is the schedule as of this point in May.
The final schedule will be available when
sign up starts on June 10. The reading pro-
gram will run June 17 August 24. All
cards must be turned in by August 24 for
entry into the grand prize drawing which
will be held on August 29 at the ice cream
party. I firmly believe that reading is
important so to be eligible for the grand
prizes people must read 9 out of the 10
weeks. This year adults will have their
own grand prize drawing. Nancy M. sug-
gested the adult prize and two library board
members are putting it together. It should
be way cool.
Check dates on the schedule because we
have had to change a few of the times. In
general, Tuesday will be older kid work-
shops (we do this because many kids dont
want to feel like they are part of a baby
activity), Wednesday is the family fun pro-
fessional program and Thursday will be for
younger patrons although older kids are
always welcome.
TUESDAY afternoons Times will vary
Because of the skill level involved, these
workshops will be limited to kids 9 years
old and up. And because we will need to
provide them with supplies, interested kids
will have to RSVP by the Friday before.
NO WALK-INS. Workshops that you can
look forward to are:

Plymouth, WI With a successful
installation and another scheduled
soon, Rohde Brothers has a patent
pending on their geothermal heat
exchanger system. This system is part
of their dedicated focus on energy
efficient heating, ventilation, and air
conditioning (HVAC) design and
installation.
Rohde installed the first ever geot-
hermal plate and frame heat exchang-
er in the state of Wisconsin at the
Three Pillars Assisted Living facility
in Dousman. This 90,000 square foot
facility, with a sprawling layout, capi-
talizes on parts of the facility being
heated for free through the geother-
mal loop that sends heat from those
parts of the building that require cool-
ing.
The basic elements of these sys-
tems include an underground loop of
piping, liquid antifreeze solution, heat
pump, and air distribution system.
Another unique feature about both
these installations is the onsite pond
that the system was submerged in and
comes with the additional challenge
of creating an aeration system.
Ageothermal system uses the con-
stant temperature of the ground, usu-
ally 35-55 degrees Fahrenheit about
four feet deep, to heat and cool a
building. During the winter the heat
pump absorbs heat from the ground
and uses it to warm the air; in the
summer the process is reversed thus
taking the heat from the building and
transferring it back to the ground.
A geothermal system offers many
benefits including: lower operating
costs (30-50% compared to conven-
tional heating and cooling systems),
renewable and nonpolluting energy,
lower maintenance costs, longer life
span for the equipment, design flexi-

bility, and safety since there are no dan-
gers of gas leaks or carbon monoxide
poisoning.
According to the U.S.
Environmental Protection Agency,
geothermal systems average 40 percent
greater efficiency than air-source heat
pumps, 48 percent better than natural
gas, and 75 percent better than oil sys-
tems, says Michael Rohde, president
of the company. Geothermal systems
currently in use help to remove more
than 1.5 million metric tons of carbon
emissions from the atmosphere each
year.
The engineering staff at Rohde
Brothers works through architects,
contractors, and directly with building
owners during the design phase of a
construction project to allow for the
optimum use of energy efficient HVAC
systems. They concentrate their efforts
in the industrial and commercial areas.

Open Book and Board of Review
Scheduled
The Village Assessor will be holding Open
Book on Tuesday, June 26, 2007, from
2:004:00 pm. To schedule an appointment
with the assessor please call Associated
Appraisal at 1-800-721-4157. Open Book
is an opportunity for property owners to
meet with the assessor and examine the
records for their property and discuss how
the assessment was made. Time spent dis-
cussing your assessment with the assessor
may eliminate the need for a formal appeal
to the Board of Review. At open book, the
assessor is allowed to make any changes
that are necessary to perfect the assessment
roll.
The Village of Kohler Board of Review
will be meeting on Wednesday, July 11,
2007, starting at 5:00 pm. Property owners
that want to appear before the Board of
Review to appeal their assessment can con-
tact the Clerk-Treasurers office at 920-
459-3873 to schedule an appointment. To
appear before the Board you must provide
the clerk-treasurer with written or oral
notice of your intent to file an objection at
least 48 hours before the first scheduled
meeting of the Board. Also, a written and
signed Form of Objection to Property
Assessment must be filled out and filed
with the clerk within the first 2 hours of
the Boards first scheduled meeting.
Assessor offers new website
Associated Appraisal, the Villages asses-
sor, has a new website for homeowners,
www.apraz.com. This site is for home-
owners to gather information about their
property and other properties in the Village
of Kohler. There is a lot of information
offered: including, a picture of the home,
assessment values, date the home was
built, number of bedrooms, square footage,
and more. After reviewing the information
if you still have questions, there is an area
to contact Associated Appraisal. There is
also a Home Owners FAQ for a list of
commonly asked questions.

Larrys Hauling Industrial Site
Just a reminder that Larrys Hauling has an
industrial site for yard waste only. It is
located in the Sheboygan Falls Industrial
Park at 111 Balsam Road. Dumpsters are
located between the Hagemeir
Construction and New Dawn buildings. It
will be necessary to have the office open
the locked gate for you. Office hours are
from 6:00 am to 5:00 pm Monday through
Friday. Residents may dump all materials
into the dumpsters. Please take any con-
tainers with you.
Use of Village Trucks for Special
Collections
Use of a Village truck for special pick-ups
can be arranged only with the approval of
the Public Works Superintendent. These
include the following items:
Dirt, clean topsoil, gravel, sod
Residents must load materials into the
truck themselves. Do not place materials
in bags. If you would like to arrange a spe-
cial pick up, please call 459-3881.
If a resident has materials from a remodel-
ing or other construction project, they may
call Larrys Hauling at 467-1919 to rent a
dumpster.
Be a Leak Seeker
Water bill higher than usual? Check all
faucets for leaks. Just a slow drip can
waste 15-29 gallons per day. Put a drop of
food coloring in the toilet tank to see if it
leaks into the bowl. Based on experience,
it is found that leaking toilets are the rea-
son for unusual water usage 90% of the
time. If you believe this is the cause you
may contact our department and our crew
can detect leaks with a special listening
device.
Garage Sale Signs
One temporary garage sale or for sale
sign shall be permitted on each lot or par-
cel. Signs located on public property will
be removed by the Public Works or Police
Department.

Police Interns
Many of you may have noticed that we
have had ridealongs in our squads since
the beginning of May. The Kohler Police
Department has hired two college interns
that are attending Lakeshore Technical
College. The two interns are Brent Vreke
and Brad Hayner and are both starting
their second year of Police Science classes
in the fall. The two interns will be partici-
pating in ridealongs and working most of
our special functions as well as writing a
term paper to receive college credits. The
interns will assist our department during
events like the 4
th
of July fireworks and
all the US Senior Open events, bike safety
day, the Brat Trot, the Kohler Classic, as
well as any other events that occur. The
interns will be wearing a shirt that says
LTC and will be accompanied by a Kohler
Police Officer. These two are the depart-
ments 4

Kohler Waters Spa:
The only Mobil Four-
Star spa in Wisconsin
The Kohler Waters Spa is the top-rated
Spa in Wisconsin on the 2007 Mobil
Travel Guides list of the top spas in the
United States and Canada receiving the
coveted Mobil Four-Star.
The Mobil Four-Star rating solidifies
the Kohler Waters Spa as the premium spa
destination in the Midwest, said Jean
Kolb, Director-Wellness Business and
Kohler Waters Spa for the Kohler Co.
Using an evaluation system similar to
the one they established for hotels and
restaurants in 1958, Mobil Travel Guides
undercover inspectors rated the spas using
more than 450 criteria. Mobil Travel
Guide updates the criteria annually. Every
aspect of the spa is included in the
evaluation, from the reservation process to
check-in and from the public areas and
locker rooms to the fitness center.
Inspectors complete two treatments at each
spa to compare how various procedures
are provided and to evaluate consistency.
In assessing the total spa experience,
inspectors examine such factors as
courtesy of staff, overall efficiency, guest
comfort and convenience, luxury,
therapists technical execution/skill and
knowledge, staff appearance and facility
cleanliness/condition. All inspections are
conducted unbeknownst to the spa
management and staff.
While most spa-goers are familiar
with the concept of star ratings, many are
surprised as to how few spas actually
qualify and achieve a Mobil Star-rated
status, said Shane OFlaherty, Vice
President of Quality Assurance for Mobil
Travel Guide. Our standards are the most
stringent in the industry because we
believe it is paramount for guests to
consistently receive the most personalized
level of service possible. The Mobil Four-
Star award places a spa at one of the
highest levels of personalized service and
luxury.
