Two churches, Paoli and
Mount Vernon Zwingli United
Churches of Christ celebrate
turning 100 years old this
year.

Michael Bovre from Paoli,

Theissen (above) and from
Mount Vernon, Harland
Erfurth (left) along with
Florence Beutler and pastor
Brad Brookins (not pictured)
reflect upon what life was
like in the early years of the
churches and now.
Below is the 1943 dedication

church.
Celebrating a Century
Two area Zwingli churches hit 100-year milestone
Victoria Vlisides
Unifed Newspaper Group
Fifty years ago, it was hard
to find a family in the pews
of Mount Vernon Zwingli
United Church of Christ that
werent dairy farmers.
The area from U.S. Hwy. 18
to the church was once heavi-
ly populated with dairy farms,
and now its hard to spot one,
Mount Vernon native Harland
Erfurth, 78, pointed out last
week.
Si mi l arl y, ret i red dai ry
farmer Harold Eichelkraut,
at the Paoli Zwingli United
Church of Christ, remembers
in the 50s when about 90 per-
cent of its congregation were
farmers.
Thats a big way the area
has dramatically changed
in the past several decades.
But, for both men, who have
worked and raised a family
in the area, one part of it has
continued to grow with them
their community churches.
Thats the story for many
residents in the Verona area
as two separate Zwingli UCC
congregations celebrate and
reflect upon turning 100 years
old. September marked the
100-year celebration for both
churches that are a fixture in
their small communities.
Though the congregations
have similar histories, each
has its own importance to its
members and the community.
This little church has a lot
of things going, Erfurth said.
I think the church keeps the
community going and the
community keeps the church
going, he said.
Eichelkraut reflected this
sentiment.
Im pret t y happy t hi s
church is here still, he said.
Mount Vernon
Area residents may know
of the Mount Vernon Zwingli
church from its annual com-
muni t y chi cken di nners
served each Fourth of July.
Erfurth was one of the first
chicken turners at the tradi-
tion where they served more
than 800 people this summer.
The church itself is known
for being made out of red
brick. Located at 1693 Wash-
ington St., the 30-foot-by-
50-foot church was built in
1914, a year or so after the
congregation of 20 families
adopted its constitution and

Construction already has
begun on a newly approved
four-tenant shopping center
near Farm and Fleet. And
three of its tenants have
been confirmed.
The strip mall just off
East Verona Avenue is set
to open early next spring
with Little Caesars Pizza
offering a drive-through
window, plus Orange Leaf
Frozen Yogurt and the local
U.S. Cellular business mov-
ing into the third spot.
Developers are looking
for a fourth tenant, which
they hope to find as soon
as possible, Meridian
Verona LLC leasing agent
Steve Doran said.
Verona Area Chamber
of Commerce executive
director Karl Curtis told the
Verona Press the develop-
ment is a very positive
sign that Verona is back in
the growth business, after
growth had slowed down
following the economic
downturn in 2008.
Building (in that area)
just makes sense for the
community and for retailers
involved, Curtis said, cit-
ing the recreational facilities
within walking distance.
The building is expected
to be completed in Janu-
ary 2014, according to the
online listing for the fourth
opening.
Little Caesars
The development will
bring Veronas first drive-
through pizza restaurant,
as well as the first drive-
through in Dane County for
Little Caesars.
Verona resident Joe Van-
cik, who owns Little Cae-
sars locations in Madison,
Fitchburg and Sun Prairie,
said he is excited to final-
ly build one that I can
almost walk to the store
from my house.
The drive-up window will
feature only Hot N Ready
menu items, which include
pizza, wings and bread-
sticks, Vancik said, though
theyll be glad to accom-
modate if somebody wants
to call us ahead of time
with a custom-made piz-
za.

Ice cream Monday
Students in the Verona Area High School German club
enjoyed an ice cream social Monday, Oct. 7, with visiting
German students. The visiting Germans are here from
Oct. 2 to Oct. 14, and will then go to Chicago for two
days. In the spring, some VAHS students will travel to
Germany for two weeks and stay with the same students
who are visiting them this week. The German students
have so far spent time shopping, attending homecoming
festivities, hiking at Devils Lake, taking a duck ride in the
Dells, touring city buildings in Verona and a tour of Epic,
among other activities. Vanessa Derr, left in gray sweat-
shirt, said shopping has been the best activity so far.
Max, right in the blue sweatshirt, said everything in the
United States is bigger than in Germany.

City of Verona
New buildings OK, debate over apartment
Jim Ferolie
Verona Press editor
Pl ans f or mor e t han
45,000 square feet of new
commercial buildings got
final approval Monday, but
the most heavily debated
items on the Plan Commis-
sion agenda will get another
round of discussion next
week.
And as usual, the com-
mission had little feedback
and few concerns about a
major project proposed by
Epic a roughly $150 mil-
lion, 500,000-square-foot
complex of buildings with
some architectural points
that nearly double the citys
maximum building height.
The commission spent a
little more time combing
over slightly altered plans
they had seen before for a
30,000-square-foot retail/
industrial/office building in
Liberty Business Park and
a 13,216-square-foot edi-
fice on East Verona Avenue
that AgSource intends to
move into next spring from
a few blocks away. Traffic
and access points were the
main issues, but both got
unanimous support from
the commission, which was
missing three of its seven
members.
But the real debate was
left for two projects with
apartments.
One, which combined
24 residence units with a
4,660-square-foot restau-
rant along the bike trail
on Paoli Street and Nine
Mound Road, earned unan-
i mous approval despi t e
drawing concerns over den-
sity, stormwater, building
height, potential expansion
and a multitude of excep-
tions for setbacks.
Commi s s i one r J a c k
Linder praised the bicycle-
catered projects ingenu-
ity and Ald. Dale Yurs
called it a great thing.
The council, which will
consider the general devel-
opment plan Monday, also
expressed positive feelings
about the project overall
when they saw a previous
plan.
The commission was less
enthused about a massive
apartment project in Prai-
rie Oaks that had inspired a
similar mix of support and
uneasiness when it went
before the council.
The project would com-
plete an update of a previ-
ously approved plan that
had expired a few years ago
after the market dropped
out on condomi ni ums.
Instead of those condos, it
features 108 apartments and
111 senior units ranging
from age-restricted apart-
ments to memory care, sim-
ilar to the slightly smaller
Willow Pointe facility in
Prairie Oaks.
Commi ssi oner s wer e
uncomfortable with both
the density of the entire
development and the sheer
number of apartments pro-
posed and voted 4-0 against
a motion that allowed it to
proceed to a council review
next week nonetheless.
One of the major con-
cerns regarded the citys
apartment phasing policy,
which targets growth of
25-50 units per year. Repre-
sentatives for the developer
said they wanted to build
all 108 apartments this year
and next, which would the-
oretically preclude any oth-
er apartment growth over
the next two years unless
exemptions were made.

Dane County
Budget includes Verona school
initiatives, increased parks funding
scott Girard
Children ages 0-3 in the
Sugar Creek Elementary
School area could be part
of a new Early Childhood
Development Zone funded
by the United Way and
Dane County.
The funding is one of
two Verona school-focused
investments in Dane Coun-
ty Executive Joe Parisis
$552.7 million proposed
2014 budget. The budget,
announced Oct . 1, al so
includes funds to fix up
its newly purchased lands
along the Sugar River, its
share of the rebuilt intersec-
tion of County Highways M
and PD, other county parks,
seniors and warning sirens
in the Verona area.
School initiatives
Both initiatives in the
VASD came from meet-
ings with local school offi-
cials, police officers and the
Joining Forces for Families
committee, Parisi said.
One of the things I try
to do is get out and talk
to people who work on
the front lines to get their
ideas and their observations
about any challenges that
exist, because they know
the best, he told the Vero-
na Press last week, calling
Verona a community that
wants to engage and wants
to partner.
The Earl y Chi l dhood
Development Zone initia-
tive would aim to close the
achievement gap, which
is the difference in perfor-
mance between white stu-
dents and black and Latino
students, and help offer sta-
bility to struggling families
in the area, Sugar Creek
principal Todd Brunner
said.
Its helping them find
their basic needs, Brunner
told the Press.
The program would send
case managers to struggling
homes with children ages
0-3 and offer guidance on
such things as parenting,
getting and maintaining a
job and finding health care.
The district and Sugar
Creek in particular has
seen an increase recently
of students who qualify for
free or reduced lunch rates,
which the district uses to
determine students from
low-income families.
In June, the state Depart-
ment of Public Instruc-
tion released numbers that
showed 31. 6 percent of
VASD students qualified in
the 2012-13 school year. At
Sugar Creek, that number
was 36.3 percent, the high-
est in the district.
The ot her i ni t i at i ve,
announced Sept. 30, would
create a Childrens Mental
Health Stabilization Team
to assist in preventing, de-
escalating and educating
other school officials on
crisis situations.
That proposed invest-
ment totals $180,000, split
between VASD and Sun
Prairie.
Br unner sai d i t was
refreshing to see how
Parisi worked to help his
school in the budget.
Its so nice to have a
politician show leadership
rather than point the finger
or look to blame schools,
he said.
Sugar River trail
Par i si al so pr oposed
$300,000 to go toward a
new 2.5-mile trail near the
Sugar River.
It would run from the
north side of the countys
property in Verona, pur-
chased in January, to Paoli.
Our goal, as the county,
and for investing in county
parks, is to not only pre-
serve that asset but to make
it available to the commu-
nity, Parisi said.
The t r ai l wi l l al l ow
greater access to the river,
as well as be great for
Paoli for tourism and eco-
nomic development, he
said.
Siren upgrades
Twenty warning sirens
across Dane County are
proposed to be replaced
and updated with the new-
est system, something that
Parisi said happens peri-
odically.
Public safety is really
the No. 1 concern of county
government, he said.
The new sirens are more
localized, and only sound
when an area is likely to
directly come into a tor-
nados path, rather than just
when a tornado is in a sur-
rounding area.
You get to the point
where people almost felt
like its crying wolf, Pari-
si said of the past system,
adding that now you know
its not a false alarm.
Verona could receive a
$30,000 investment with
two sirens replaced, one at
Parkland Drive and one at
the fire station.
Countywide
investments
Parisi also proposed sev-
en investments to improve
county parks and lakes,
including creating a new
Out r each Coor di nat or
position, a Dane County
Youth Conservation Corps
through a partnership with
Operation Fresh Start and
$39,000 to better maintain
the parks.
He expressed particular
excitement about the Youth
Conservation Corps, which
he called a win-win pro-
gram for county residents
and yout h t hat wi l l be
involved through the OFS
program.
Verona also would ben-
efit from $16,000 county-
wide that Parisi has pro-
posed to use to replace fed-
eral funding that covered
senior meals. The money
will pay for approximately
4,000 meals for seniors.
The Verona Senior Cen-
ter does not participate in
the countys meals pro-
gram, but a meal site at
Deer Creek Sportsmans
Club would be affected.

A
friend recently asked me
over coffee, Whats the
best diet so I can lose the
fat around my butt and thighs?
This is a woman who does not
look overweight, but at 5 feet,
6 inches and 150 pounds she is,
like the majority of people, quite
concerned about her weight. And
because being overweight is a
health issue, not
just one of van-
ity, I consider
it an important
one.
But her ques-
tion is a dif-
ficult one to
answer. Diets
are difficult to
maintain long
term, particular-
ly if they require major changes
in lifestyle. So if you are strug-
gling with your weight, your best
bet is working with a professional,
like a dietician or nutritionist, to
find a diet and exercise plan that
you can make a part of your life,
not just a temporary goal. Physi-
cians do not get any courses in
nutrition, but we can guide you to
get to your weight goals.
The first thing to keep in mind
is whether you are at a healthy
weight.
Physicians use a persons BMI,
or body mass index, in reference
to weight. This measurement isnt
perfect because it doesnt take
gender, age, or muscle mass into
consideration, but its easy to cal-
culate. For children, physicians
use growth curves instead of BMI
since there is a wide variety of
what is normal for a child.
BMI is calculated by taking your
weight (in kg) and dividing it by
your height (in meters squared).
Thats it.
Essentially, it finds how much
weight is distributed over your
bodys surface area. A healthy
BMI is between 18.5-25, whereas
25-30 is considered overweight,
and more than 30 is considered
obese. My friends BMI is 24.2,
right on the edge of whats consid-
ered healthy.
Physicians care about BMI
because studies have shown that a
BMI above 30 increases the risk of
developing heart disease, a stroke,
diabetes, high cholesterol, arthritis
and other health problems. A BMI
over 30 does not mean you will
have those problems, but when all
other factors are equal, the chances
are increased compared with some-
one whose BMI is below 30.
To lower your BMI, you must
either increase your height or lose
weight. We often have children
maintain their weight because as
they grow taller, the weight gets
distributed more evenly. However,
adults are done growing and main-
taining weight becomes harder
with age.
I can see people who have dealt
with obesity and being overweight
their whole life rolling their eyes
while they read this because doc-
tors make it sound so easy. It isnt.
In fact, for the majority of people,
its a lifelong struggle.
I was fortunate in that as a
chubby child when I hit puberty
growth spurts stretched me out. In
fact, I still have the stretch marks
to prove it. Like I tell others, I
maintain my weight by exercising
to burn more calories and by eating
better to decrease the amount of
calories I am taking in.
I always ask my patients what
they think they can and are willing
to do. To try to make little changes
every month or so that they can
continue for the rest of their life. I
find most people try and change
their diet because they dont have
time to exercise.
So if youre looking to change
your diet, there are a lot of choices.
Popular ones include the Atkins
diet, South Beach diet, Ornish diet,
Zone diet and Weight Watchers.
But while the effectiveness of each
varies in the beginning, studies
have found that ultimately, within
a year, they essentially become
equal and most people have
regained the weight they initially
lost. Thats because most people
give up on diets within a year and
return to their original eating hab-
its. Those who stay on a diet keep
the weight they lost off.
So the best diet is really just
staying on any one of them.
Weight Watchers appears to
be the one people can stick to the
longest likely because the diet
requires calorie counting. Instead
of cutting out your favorite foods,
the diet makes you aware of your
food and maintains moderation of
food.
There are many people who
remain active and do their best to
live a healthy lifestyle but they
simply cannot lose weight. Some
of my patients are obese but for
this reason have not yet developed
other health problems.
If youre one of these people,
dont feel bad about yourself
because another part of being
healthy is being happy with your-
self and your life.
As for my friend searching for
the best diet plan, sadly, I had to
tell her there is no diet that will
specifically target weight loss in
her bottom and thighs.
However, exercising and toning
those muscles may help her to get
the results she wants.

Medicine Clinic in Verona.

Letters to the editor
Aquatic club was more than a swim team
I would like to supplement the
front-page article regarding the
Verona Aquatic Club (VAC) pub-
lished on Aug. 15, 2013 (Aquatic
Club Goes Under).
As noted by the author, and said
by many members, the Verona
Aquatic Club was more than simply
a swim team. During his 27 years
as VAC head coach, Randy Trow-
bridge often stated hard work pays
off. Yes, it does.
The Verona Aquatic Club pro-
duced many of state champions, a
number of Junior National qualifi-
ers including a Junior National team
member who competed for the USA
Swimming National Team in Japan,
an Olympic Trials semi-finalist as
recently as in 2012 and, of course,
Veronas own Neil Walker. Neil
was an Olympic gold medalist repre-
senting the United States in the 2000
and 2004 games as well as a multiple
swimming world record holder.
This is in addition to numerous
VAC swimmers throughout the
years who were enabled to receive
college educations financed at least
in part by collegiate swimming
scholarships.
Testimonials of VAC alumni say
that VACs team philosophy (To
inspire and enable our members to
achieve excellence in the sport of
swimming and in life.) has been
their foundation as they pursued oth-
er interests and careers in their lives.
What a sad loss for the Verona
community and its children. This
loss was precipitated in no small part
by the intransigence of the Verona
Natatorium Director over the years
who successfully made it very dif-
ficult and expensive for the Verona
Aquatic Club to swim at their home-
town pool. Embarrassingly, VAC
needed to ask other community and
area pools in the Madison region for
adequate swimming space and times
to rent for its swimmers in order to
offer its swim program.
A heart-felt thank you to VACs
cornerstone coaches, Head Coach
Randy Trowbridge, Coach Bo Trow-
bridge and Coach Deb Nickels for
their years of dedication to VAC. I
believe these coaches had it right by
saying its all about the kids and for
the kids.

Celebrate states campaign finance watchdog
How much was spent on mining
interests in Wisconsin in 2012? How
much did it increase from 2011?
How much of that money came from
sand mining interests. Who received
the most campaign funding from
mining in the last 5 years?
The answer to those and many
other campaign finance questions
are simple mouse clicks away thanks
to Wisconsins campaign funding
watchdog, the Wisconsin Democ-
racy Campaign. Since 1995, the
Democracy Campaign has been
shining light on dark money in
both parties. They are an invaluable
resource for finding out who is pur-
chasing legislators and pushing self-
serving legislation. The Wisconsin
Democracy Campaign is also a
strong advocate for campaign fund-
ing reform and voting rights. They
deserve, and have gotten my support.
A special benefit concert will be
held at 7:30 p.m. Friday, Oct. 11, at
the Mt. Horeb High School Audito-
rium for the Wisconsin Democracy
Campaign.
The answers are: $413,894 in min-
ing money, $257,215 increase from
the previous year, $47,774 came
from Sand Mining, and Scott Walker
received the most, $520,266 of trace-
able money from mining interests.

Downtown plan
Next presentation is Oct. 21
Mark IgnatowskI
Anyone interested in Vero-
nas downtown will have a
chance to weigh in on the lat-
est set of plans Oct. 21.
City officials, along with
planners from MSA Profes-
sional Services, will present
a draft plan of the transporta-
tion and redevelopment future
of the downtown area at 6:30
p.m. at the Verona Senior
Center, 108 Paoli St.
The meeting is the next
step in the citys downtown
transportation and corridor
study a plan that aims to
help elected officials plan
future land use around the
intersection of Main Street
and Verona Avenue.
The studys steering com-
mittee earlier this month
directed planners to provide
more details about how the
area would look with a four-
way, signal-controlled inter-
section. That configuration
was preferred over a round-
about or split one-ways.
Planners will present dia-
grams and renderings of what
the streetscape and traffic pat-
terns might look like in the
next 20-30 years, based on
citizen input at previous meet-
ings, interviews and a survey.
Attendees will be able to
ask questions and provide
feedback at this public meet-
ing, according to a news
release from the city. Those
findings will go back to the
steering committee for review
before submitting the plan to
the citys Planning Commis-
sion and Common Council
for further scrutiny.

VACT to present Seven Brides for Seven Brothers Oct. 11
scott gIrard
The Verona Area Commu-
nity Theater will present Sev-
en Brides for Seven Brothers
Oct. 11-19 at the Verona Per-
forming Arts Center.
The play is set in Oregon
in 1850, and tells the story
of Millie (Angie Camp-
bell), a young bride living
in the wilderness who mar-
ries Adam Pontipee (Roger
Rickman) and discovers
she has to cook and clean
for her husbands six broth-
ers (Ben Johnson, Logan
Wal sh, Scot t Wi el and,
Jeff Horstmann, Garrett
Coombs and Tim Fehling)
in addition to him.
She helps the brothers
learn manners and attract a
few eligible town women
(Kacey Scheidegger, Mar-
sha Heuer, Liz Schmelzer,
Morgan Ramaker, Sarah Z.
Johnson and Natalie Cham-
bers), to the dismay of the
town suitors who planned
on marrying the women.
The brothers decide to
kidnap the women and an
avalanche keeps the wom-
en with the brothers until
the weather warms in the
spring.
The show is described
in a VACT press release
as bur st i ng wi t h t he
rambunctious energy and
dancing of the original film.
Many of t he fami l i ar
scenes and songs from the
original movie musical will
be part of the show, includ-
ing: Bess Your Beautiful
Hide, Goin Courtin, The
Challenge Dance, Sobbin

Paradox
The word paradox comes from two simple Greek words, para
meaning beyond, and doxa, meaning opinion. A paradox is
something that is beyond belief or seemingly contradictory.
Christianity is full of paradoxes. Christ is the living embodiment
of paradox, a man of humble birth who turns out to be God. It
was paradoxical to the Jews of the first century that Jesus was
considered to be the Messiah, because they were expecting
a conquering hero, a king who would come and drive out the
Romans. Jesus essentially told them that his kingdom was not
of this world and to give to Caesar what was Caesars. A final
paradox that is so essential to Christianity is the cross itself. It
isnt just that the cross is an instrument of a cruel and torturous
death, not befitting a king or a God, but it was considered, by
Jewish law, that anyone hanged up alive and allowed to die was
cursed by God: anyone who is hung on a pole is under Gods
curse (Deuteronomy 21: 23). Thus, Paul says that the cross is a
stumbling block to Jews.
Christopher Simon for Metro News Service
Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?...We
preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolish-
ness to Gentiles.

became i ncor por at ed,
according to an article by the
Mount Horeb Area Histori-
cal Society.
Since the churchs incep-
tion, theyve had 16 pastors,
including current pastor Brad
Brookins since 2004, accord-
ing to the article. It shared
funds and pastors with anoth-
er church in Verona until the
congregation split off to be on
its own in 1912.
The congregation that on
a given Sunday can range
from 60-100 people, despite
breaking away from a big-
ger church, has never been in
danger of dissolving, Erfurth
said. Although they were
struggling when they split
off from the Verona church,
he said people simply under-
stood theyd have to give
more.
If were going to sur-
vive the congregation, were
going to have to dig a little
deeper in the pocket to make
it go, he said.
Although there are fewer
and fewer old-timers at the
church, people keep com-
ing back to give it new life,
illustrated by the 240 people
who attended the churchs
100-year anniversary in mid-
September.
Building additions
While the church has kept
its traditional events, its
gone through changes aes-
thetically and in how its run.
The church building has
had two major additions.
In 1979, Erfurth and the
late John Beutler, among oth-
ers, headed up the committee
to add a backroom and office
to the church along with a
working bathroom that had
plumbing. Up until the reno-
vation, the church still had
outhouses in its backyard.
That was quite an addi-
tion when we got bathrooms
in the church, Erfurth
recalls.
What started out as a
one-room church has also
had some renovations to
the sanctuary. But the oth-
er major addition was the
roughly 6-to-7-foot steeple,
which was built by Beutler
and added to the top of the
building in 1995.
Johns wife Florence said
her husband had always
wanted to add the chapel to
the church and decided to
build it himself even while
he was undergoing chemo-
therapy treatments. With
help from his children and
grandchildren, he built the
steeple and saw it attached to
the churchs silhouette thats
seen today.
Less than a year after he
completed it, John passed
away. Florence has many
memories, like the steeple,
from her time at the church
that hold special signifi-
cance.
Ive been t here for-
ever, said the Mount Ver-
non native who now lives
between Belleville and New
Glarus.
Fl orence grew up i n
a house right next to the
church and her childhood is
filled with vivid images of
brides stopping at a scenic
part of her familys house to
take wedding photos.
Florences own wedding
day, in 1958, was at the
church, too. Erfurth, who
is Florences senior by two
years, is a childhood friend
who also married his wife
Nona in the church.
Erfurth said keeping the
community and the con-
gregation going is what the
church stands for, and pas-
tor Brookins is part of that.
While the church retains tra-
dition, three months ago they
started an alternative worship
service every other Wednes-
day night that often incorpo-
rates poetry, different types
of reading and meditations.
And this year, the church
decided to include a policy
that anyone who attends
church is considered a mem-
ber right then and there.
Anyone who comes is
welcome to be a part of what
were doing here, Brookins
said.
Paoli
Fifteen years ago, the Paoli
Zwingli United Church of
Christ congregation decided
to stand on their own and
broke away from the Bel-
leville church they partnered
with.
Things were sparse, said
pastor Sara Thiessen, who
joined the congregation eight
years ago. They were just
getting by. Their future was
uncertain.
Ri ski ng cert ai nt y for
what they believe in is in
the churchs history, dat-
ing back to its namesake
Ulrich Zwingli, a leader of
the Swiss Reformation in the
early 1500s.
Among the uncertainty,
they took another chance in
following Thiessens lead to
incorporate new ideas into
the church that celebrated
100 years of its congregation
this year.
Its congregation has flour-
ished in the past eight years,
growing from about a dozen
people regularly attending
worship to about 60-70 peo-
ple, Thiessen told the Verona
Press in a phone interview
last month.
Keeping the historical
church going is significant to
the small group of dedicated
community members, which
by Eichelkrauts estimate,
still has around 24 people
who are descendants of
original members. Michael
Bovre, a Madison resident
who grew up in Paoli, has
been going to the church
since he was 10, along with
Harold, a Paoli native, who
was baptized in the church.
I think our ancestors
would be proud, Bovre said
of the long-standing congre-
gation.
History
The congregation has
been around since March of
1913 when 35 families came
together to worship, accord-
ing to a church history put
together in 1998. They didnt
have a building until the
former Methodist Meeting
House on County Highway
PB was purchased in 1914
under the direction of Jacob
Hefty and Henry Eichelkraut,
who is Harolds grandfather.
(Harold still has the original
deed to the church.)
The building had been
around since the 1850s and
has been renovated several
times since to include renova-
tion of the kitchen area, a new
furnace, and sanctuary redec-
oration, including installation
of stained glass windows.
In 1997, the church split off
from the Belleville Zwingli
United Church of Christ.
Longtime church members
reflected on old traditions
before the split like when
men and women sat on dif-
ferent sides of the church,
and young children sat in the
front.
Michael offered one reason
that may have been:
The men had been work-
ing in the barn before church
and handled the churches
here and they smelled, he
said, with a laugh. So, they
separate because the women
didnt want to sit next to
them.
In their younger years, Har-
old and Michael were part of
the youth fellowship where
they might have gone bowl-
ing or to the roller skating
rink for fun. Today, they said
there arent as many youths
at the church. With about 15
children in Sunday school,
theres no organized youth
group. But Theissen along
with an engaged congrega-
tion are bringing new life to
the organization.
New life
The pastor, a mother who
sports short hair and multi-
colored Chuck Taylor sneak-
ers on her days off, has cer-
tainly brought new life to the
church, changing up tradi-
tional worship to include act-
ing and attempting to better
engage younger members.
For example, she switched
the vacation bible school
from summer to winter so
that the date had less com-
petition with other summer
activities. Thats worked
well, with around 25 partici-
pants last year.
She s got
the blessing of long-stand-
ing members like Bovre,
Harold and his wife Rachel
Eichelkraut.
Sara is a go-getter, said
Rachel, adding shes a dif-
ferent type of pastor than the
church has ever had.
They said Thiessens per-
sonal approach to worship
and pastoral duties is what
makes her different than past
pastors. It might also have
to do with her upbringing
in another small town, Keil,
Wis., with a population of
around 3,700 people.
Ne w pr ogr a ms l i ke
outreach to area Spanish-
speaking people and the Sun-
day school raising money for
Haiti relief have folded in
nicely with traditional events
like their annual holiday
bazaar.
On the surface, we may
seem like an old country
church, but we are getting
with the times, Thiessen
said.
While the church has had
its ups and downs, the future
is bright.
In this day and age, I think
this little church means more
than these big ones theyre
making, Rachel said.

Dont rain on this parade
Verona residents and students braved the unpredictable weather Friday for the 2013
Homecoming Parade down Main Street and Verona Avenue. The weeks theme was
Neon, and parade-goers were decked out in facepaint, glasses and bright colors
all around. Before the parade, the high school held a pep rally featuring acrobatics
from some students. On Saturday night, high school students attended the dance,
where Katherine Ludwig and Logan Postweiler were crowned Homecoming King
and Queen.

convenience, he said of the
pizza chains ready to take-
out pizzas. Now you dont
even have to get out of your
car. Its even quicker than it
was before.
Vancik called the develop-
ment area a sleeping giant.
Weve always had our
eye on that location, he said.
It just appeared that that
whole area, with the ballfield
and Blains coming in
that the time was right to put
a location right there.
He said the franchise is
shooting for an opening date
during the week before the
Super Bowl, Feb. 2, though
the weather will play a large
part in whether that happens.
At the latest, he said the store
should be open by the end of
February.
Frozen Yogurt
Joe Klinzing of Orange
Leaf Frozen Yogurt has been
looking to expand around
Dane County and found an
easy choice in the oppor-
tunity to move into the new
complex.
In addition to the Verona
location, he and his partner
are also working on sites in
Sun Prairie, Lake Delton and
the Grandview Commons
development in Madison.
He said he wants the busi-
ness to remain in communi-
ties where the company can
get involved with charities
and be in an accessible loca-
tion close to family neigh-
borhoods.
People can bike to the
stores, can walk to the stores.
We dont want to be in just a
business area thats just com-
mercial, he said. Were
excited to come to Verona.
He said he expects the
store to open in early- to
mid-March.
U.S. Cellular
Chris Roerig, who runs the
Quality Cellular franchise
of U.S. Cellular in Verona,
said he has been look-
ing to move for years, and
expressed excitement about
the new location.
Were really excited
about it and I think its going
to help us and our custom-
ers see us better, Roerig, a
Verona resident, said. Its a
win-win for everybody.
The store will also feature
an updated interior to match
up with other recently con-
structed U.S. Cellular stores.
He cited greater traffic
visibility, more parking and
the growth in the area of the
development as reasons for
moving, and looked forward
to improving the Verona store,
which was the first he fran-
chised.
Its like our little baby
finally getting to move to a
better location, he said.
He said he expects the loca-
tion to open sometime in Feb-
ruary, but also said there may
be a small overlap between
closing the old location and
opening the new one to ensure
customers know what is hap-
pening.

It was nine years since the Verona
girls golf team made state, but Mon-
days 337 in the Madison West sec-
tional at Odana Hills Golf Course
begins a new chapter in the pro-
grams history.
It is awesome. It is also nice since
we have such a young team, head
coach Bailey Hildebrandt said. It
is exciting and good to get over this
hurdle to show that we can do it.
Hopefully, we can start making a run
of it.
The No. 2 Wildcats played in the
first wave of teams since they were
third at regionals on Oct. 2, so they
not only had to win their group but
also had to wait about an hour-and-a-
half to see if their score would be low
enough.

Upset special at conference meet
Jeremy JoNes
Sports editor
Senior Rachel Nachreiner and
junior Karen Wong became the
first Verona flight to win a match
against Middleton since 2008 in
the second round of Saturdays
Big Eight tennis tournament.
The top-ranked Cardinals have
been so dominant in the confer-
ence over the past four seasons,
Nachreiner and Wong were actu-
ally the first Wildcats to even take
a set against Middleton, upsetting
the top-seeded Cardinals team of
Sydney Black and Lauren Coons
6-4, 7-6 (8-6) in the second round
after cruising to a 6-3, 6-0 win
against Madison East.
Down 5-2 i n t he second set
against Middleton, Nachreiner
said, I just kind of figured we
were going to lose.
We kept telling each other that
we were right there with them,
Wong said. The first set was
back-and-forth.
Taki ng t wo games from t he
Cardinals to pull back to within a
game, down 5-4, Nachreiner knew
the Wildcats were going to take
the set.
I think Middleton would have
taken the momentum if we went
to a third set, she said. We knew
we had to get it done in two.
Nachreiner and Wong (18-8)
were unable to close out the cham-
pionship run, however, falling 6-2,
6-3 to Madison Wests Maddie
Anders and Alice Horein (19-7) in
the finals.
It was so exciting to beat Mid-
dleton, but after that match we came
off the court and just needed to calm
down and recharge, Wong said.
Playing such an emotional match
against the Cardinals, both Wong
and Nachreiner admitted to being
a little drained against the Regents
in the finals.
After four years of playing, I
thought it was a great accomplish-
ment to reach the finals, Nach-
reiner said.
Sophomore Lauren Supanich
(16-8) cruised 6-1, 6-1 and 6-1,
6-2 over against Madison East and
West to advance to the champion-
ship match for the second straight
year. Falling to Madison Krig-
baum (20-0) a year ago, Supanich
faced junior Emily Oberwetter for
the second time this season, fall-
ing 6-0, 6-1 to Oberwetter in the
finals.

Spikers communicate well in 3-1 win
ANthoNy Iozzo
Head coach Kelly Annen said she focused
on communication in practice before Tues-
days match against Madison West, and it
showed in all but one game in a 3-1 win
(25-13, 12-25, 25-10, 25-9).
In the second game, things were not
going the way we wanted them do, whether
it was our serving or passing or control, but
the girls did a good job of turning it around
and not making it a mental game, Annen
said.
Sophomore outside hitter Kylie Schmaltz
led Verona with 10 kills, while sophomore
setter Victoria Brisack had 34 assists and
four aces. Junior libero Samantha Kolpek
had nine digs and sophomore middle block-
er Julie Touchett had two blocks.
Tuesday was also Senior Night with out-
side hitters Maddie Vogel and Leslie Ban-
zhaf being honored.
The Wildcats are off until Oct. 19 when
they travel to Beloit Memorial for the Big
Eight Conference tournament at 8 a.m.
Verona 3, Madison East 0
The Wildcats swept Madison East on the
road last Thursday 3-0 (25-8, 25-9, 25-16).
Schmaltz finished with eight kills, while
Brisack picked up 16 assists and two blocks.
Junior libero Morgan Schmitz had four
aces, and senior outside hitter Maddie
Vogel and junior libero Morgan Schmitz
each had seven digs.

Cats crush Parker in playoff push
The Verona Area High School foot-
ball team took its first step toward trying
not to miss the playoffs for the first time
since 2003 with a 47-21 win over Janes-
ville Parker Friday during the homecoming
game.
After a back-and-forth first quarter, the
Wildcats took hold of the game with a
21-0 second quarter, on the strength of two
touchdown passes from senior quarterback
John Tackett.
Tackett, who was 12-for-20 for 220
yards with an interception, connected
with junior split end Colin Griffin (three
catches for 58 yards) on a 31-yard pass and
followed it up with a 4-yard pass to senior
tight end Taylor Watzke for back-to-back-
scores. Junior running back Cameron Tin-
dall had the other second quarter touch-
down with a 9-yard run.
Tackett also had a touchdown pass in
the first quarter. He found senior split end
Mitch Flora for a 60-yard score to open the
game.
Junior running back Eric Schmid, who
rushed for 102 yards on 17 carries, added
two touchdowns. He scored on a 42-yard
run in the first quarter, and he added a
3-yard run in the fourth.
Senior running back Colin Daniels had
the other score, a 28-yard run in the first.
He rushed for 93 yards on 11 carries.
The Wildcats (3-4) jumped out to a 12-0
lead after two touchdowns the first with
a missed extra point and the second with
a failed 2-point conversion attempt. But
Parker (2-5) cut the lead to five points
twice in the first. Parker only scored one
touchdown in the second half. Senior run-
ning back Dai-Von Vance-Jenkins had 178
yards on 22 carries with two touchdowns
for the Vikings.
Verona looks to continue its playoff
push at 7:30 p.m. Friday at Madison East
(0-7) at Lussier Stadium.
If Verona wins and Madison West (3-4)
defeats Beloit Memorial (1-6), then the
Oct. 18 game between the Wildcats and the
Regents at Verona will be for a chance to
clinch a playoff berth.
I was young and shes
always been one of the best
people I know, sopho-

I kind of psyched myself
out just because I know she
is a great player.
Schmitz (20-7) met her
second seed, fal l i ng t o

singles. Schmitz rolled 6-0,

matches on Saturday.
Senior Marissa Wilson
and j uni or St eph Kery-
luk (11-8) placed fourth
at No. 1 doubles, falling
6-4, 7-5 against Madison
West, while juniors Kaela
Amundson and Genna Sti-
cha (13-12) lost 4-6, 6-4,
7-6 (7-1) against Madison
Memorial.
We advanced everyone
through to the semifinals,
which I am fairly certain
is the first time weve ever
done that, Verona head
coach Mark Happel said.
The top-ranked team in
the state, Middleton rolled
to its fourth-straight Big
Ei ght Conf er ence t i t l e
with championships at six
of seven flights. Cardinal
si ngl es pl ayers Bri dget
Bellissimo (No. 1), Kaisey
Skibba (No. 2), Oberwetter
(No. 3) and Krigbaum (No.
4) combined to lose just 12
games.

champion Dao Sysouvanh

Middleton No. 1 duo of

pairing of Baylie Gold and
Abbey Webber cruised to
championships in straight
set s. Mi ddl et on l ed t he
t eam st andi ngs wi t h 52
points. Madison West (35)
finished a distant second,
followed by Verona (31).
Regents seniors Anders
and Horein were the only
players not from Middle-
ton to claim a flight cham-
pionship.
The Wildcats traveled
back inside Nielsen Tennis
Stadium on Monday for
one of the toughest WIAA
Division 1 Middleton sub-
sectionals in the state and
it showed as only Supan-
ich, at 3 singles, advanced
t hr ough t o Thur sday s
WIAA Waunakee section-
al inside Nielsen. Action

inside Nielsen Tennis Sta-
dium.
Ver ona and Madi son
West tied with 12 points,
but as expected it was Mid-
dleton (24) and Waunakee
(22) out in front of every-
one. Middleton advanced
at all seven flights, while
Waunakee advanced every-
where except at 3 singles.
Its going to be Wauna-
kee and Middleton in the
finals at almost every flight
at sectionals, they are just
that good right now, Hap-
pel said. Its a credit to
Lauren to break up what
figures to be a Middleton/
Waunakee dual match on
Thursday..

sectionals, Hadjiev and the
Wildcat doubles team of

Griffin and Schmitz also
lost tough matches at No.

Sports editor
Saturdays Middleton Invitational not only
gave the Verona/Mount Horeb girls swim-
ming team a chance to see most of the teams
in the Big Eight Conference,
but its sectional as well.
This is the most fun meet
of the season, VMH head
coach Halley Johnson said.
It comes at a great time,
when all the teams are at their
most tired points and need
a little bit of fun but also be
able to compete.
Sophomore Beata Nelson
had a part in four victories for the Wildcats,
which were once again unable to slip past the
host Cardinals, finishing 16 points behind
Middleton with a score of 372.
Middleton won the 12-team, relay only
meet with a score of 388 behind four first-
place finishes and four seconds.
Freshman Kristi Larsen, juniors Sammy
Seymour and Shelby Rozeboom and Beata
Nelson opened the meet, swimming to an
exciting victory of just four-hundredths of a
second over Madison Memorial with a time
of 21 minutes, 52.52 seconds in the 200-meter
medley relay.
Freshman Rose Parker, sophomore Julia
Ver Voort, junior Lindsay Craig and Beata
Nelson added the 400 medley (4x100) title
four events later two seconds ahead of Mid-
dleton with a time of 4:13.15.
Ver Voort, Rozeboom and sisters Maddy
and Beata helped the 300 back (50-100,50-
100) relay to victory in 2:53.13.
The Nelson siblings, along with senior
Becca Wilson, freshman Maizie Seidl, Craig,
Larsen, Rozeboom and Ver Voort helped
Verona/Mount Horeb cap the meet in style
winning the 400 free (8x50) pineapple relay
in 3:21.93. The most important relay of the
meet to the girls, Johnson said, the top three
finishers in both JV and varsity receive a
pineapple for each swimmer.
Veronas JV team of Sarah Prescott, Claire
Wilson, Carrie Snodgrass, Abbie Homan,
Sammy Seymour, Natalee Drapp and sisters
Jenny and Anna Kopp finished runner-up to
Middleton in the JV race.
We made some really competitive relays,
but also some really fun ones, such as the
sister relay that consisted of Sarah Prescott,
Olivia Prescott, Anna Kopp and Jenny Kopp
in the 100 freestyle relay, Johnson said. I

on state by three strokes last season, had
its top two golfers junior Ashli Stolen
and senior Becky Klongland left. If
both girls shot near their season aver-
age, Verona would be third.
But when Stolens score came in
at 91, Klongland would have had to
shoot 3-under par to knock off Verona.
Klongland still tied for first with a 75
finishing second after a playoff with
Middletons Loren Skibba but that
wasnt enough to stop the Wildcats
push toward history as Stoughton fin-
ished third with a 342.
Hildebrandt said it was positive to
be in the first group because then the
girls were able to focus on their scores
as opposed to counting Middleton and
Stoughton every hole.
Golf is an individual sport. It is best
to just play your own game and do the
best you can, she said. That is what
the girls did today.
Scores were elevated at Odana Hills
due to how long the course was playing.
Historically, the course has seen some
lower scores in the past few years, but
none of that was apparent Monday.
Junior Jessica Reinecke, the defend-
ing WIAA Division 1 individual cham-
pion, finished third overall and led
Verona with a 77, while sophomore
Bailey Smith shot an 84. Both of those
scores added a combined nine strokes
from regionals.
However, sophomore Hanna Reb-
holz and senior Rachel Hernandez shot
an 87 and an 89, respectively, which
was an improvement of 12 strokes from
regionals. Sophomore Emily Opsal
also improved her regional score by six
strokes with a 94, despite it not counting
toward the final team score.
I was really proud of the girls for
playing tough. It wasnt easy. Noth-
ing came easy, Hildebrandt said. The
pressure was on, but they had a goal set
for themselves, and they played very
consistent golf today.
No. 1 Middleton (329) also quali-
fied for state. No. 8 Madison Memo-
rial (354) and No. 10 Oregon (363) took
fourth and fifth. Honorable mentions
Beaver Dam (376) and Portage (377)
were sixth and seventh. Monona Grove
was eighth (392).
Klongland, Portages Emily Grunder
(81) and Madison Memorials Claire
Franken (84), who defeated Beaver
Dams Abby Chase in a playoff, quali-
fied as individuals.
We definitely have a hard section-
al to get through, Hildebrandt said.
Some very good teams are left on the
sidelines.
But that competition and pressure to
just make state does prepare Verona for
what is next Monday and Tuesday in
the WIAA Division 1 state meet at Uni-
versity Ridge Golf Course, Hildebrandt
said.
The stakes will be as high, but get-
ting there was our first big goal. Hope-
fully, the girls will just relax and enjoy
the experience, she said. I think we
definitely can be a top competitor, and
we will just have to wait and see how
it all shakes out Monday and Tuesday.
The Wildcats finished 10th overall at
state in 2004 led by graduate Kate Wier-
will, who was the 2003 champion. The
program has been around since 1999.
Division 1 tees off at 8 a.m. Monday.

Middleton regional
Verona advanced to sectionals Oct. 2
with a 340 at the Middleton regional at
Pleasant View Golf Course.
Reinecke shot a 74 and tied Middle-
tons Sheenagh Cleary for first overall.
Smith was second overall with a 78.
Hernandez (92) and Rebholz (96) fin-
ished the scoring.
was very impressed with how we swam and it
gave us a great perspective on how hard work
does really payoff.
The Wildcats 50-100-50-100 JV relay team
of freshmen Sarah Schultz, Claire Wilson and
Lindsey Steinl and junior Sarah Prescott swam
to victory in 3:16.6, while Veronas JV 200
medley and 4x100 medley relays finished sec-
ond.
Verona won both JV and varsity relays,
which was definitely the highlight of the meet
for not just those on the relay, but those on our
team cheering and supporting, Johnson said.
Middleton remained third in the Wisconsin
Interscholastic Swimming Coaches Asso-
ciation Division 1 state poll one spot ahead of
Verona/Mount Horeb. Defending state cham-
pion Waukesha South/Mukwonago remained
ahead of Arrowhead atop the poll.

The Wildcats hosted Madi-

warmup Tuesday and came
back from a two-goal deficit
to finish in a 2-2 tie in two
overtimes.
Down 2-0 after 60 min-
utes, Conlin Bass and Sawyer
Quade (with a penalty kick),
scored five minutes a part to
tie the game.
Senior Garrett Grunke had
an opportunity in overtime but
just missed the game-winner.
Rortvedt finished with 11
saves.
Verona travels to play Mid-

It is kind of a blessing in
disguise to play West and

it puts us in that playoff mind-

be ready for Beloit on Tues-
day.
Former Verona Area High
School cross country and

JaMes K. Given iii
Major James K. Given
III (Jim) was born on April
23, 1953, in La Crosse.
He passed away from can-
cer on Oct. 2, 2013, at the
Great Lakes Medical Cen-
ter in Tomah. Much hap-
pened between those two
events.
Jim was the beloved son
of James Jr. and Irene Giv-
en. Ultimately, after spend-
ing time living in Iowa and
Milwaukee, the Given fam-
ily settled in Verona. Jim
attended school in Verona
and impressed his teach-
ers with his intellect, his
coaches with his prowess,
and his friends with his
spirit. His greatest honor
was to be nominated and
accepted as a cadet at West
Point. He graduated from
West Point in 1975.
Jim was an Army pilot,
an Army Ranger, a sky-
diver, and a good friend
who was wonderfully mis-
chievous; he played the
trumpet, piano, and guitar.
He enjoyed singing and
joined the West Point Glee
Club. Jim was completing
the requirements for earn-
ing his masters degree
in aeronautical engineer-
ing. He filled his life with
hard work, laughter, and
dreams. However, in 1986,
his dreams were cut short.
His goal from the Army
(and his personal goal)
was to represent the Army
by traveling into space as
part of NASAs shuttle
program. As his nephew
stated at the time, Jim
is the Flash Gordon of
uncles. And, indeed he
was. Tragically, in 1986,
all that ended due a plane
crash that severely injured
Jims brain. Since then, he
has resided at the veterans
facility in Tomah. The
VA staff cared for him as
though he was a member
of their family. His fam-
ily was by his side through
the decades. Dear friends
shared hours wi t h hi m
daily. He was loved and
shared his love with us.
Ji m was preceded t o
the full measure of Gods
Light by his parents James
and I r ene. He i s sur -
vived by his sisters Sandy
Tordoff (Roger) and Kim
Bushey (Tom), as well
as his nieces and neph-
ews, Brad Tordoff, Stacy
(Tordoff) Baker (Eric),
Amber Bushey, and Colton
Bushey. Add to that list,
his grand-nephews, James
and Evan Baker. Members
of his extended family
who visited him so he had
company daily
ar e Annet t e
Stevens (and
her husband
Lenny, until his death),
Deb Nicolaus, Rene Clark,
and Jamie Murphy. Jims
gratitude to them will span
eternity.
Since Jims passing, one
of his West Point friends
commented that Jim was a
treasure in life. He was. It
was a God-given blessing
he touched our lives. It is
his blessing that he is now
soaring in Gods Light.
Ji m s vi si t at i on and
funeral will be held at St.
James Evangelical Luther-
an Church, 427 S. Main
St., in Verona, on Satur-
day, Oct. 12. The visita-
tion will begin at 9:30 a.m.
and the funeral service will
begin at 11 a.m. with the
Rev. Kurt Billings offici-
ating. Internment will be
at the Oak Hall Cemetery.
The family will be estab-
lishing a music scholarship
in Jims honor at the Vero-
na High School. All memo-
ri al s, unl ess ot herwi se
specified, will be included
as part of that scholarship.
