The

Preserving nature

Local volunteers take the lead in developing Anderson Farm County Park
Unified Newspaper Group

Although still in its infancy, a county park that could

one day include nearly 600
acres is slowly taking shape
on the villages southern
boundary.
Right now, Anderson Farm
County Park is mostly farmland, an idea and a plan. But a
group of volunteers, Anderson
Park Friends, has been restoring a forest area that abuts the
villages south side and has
created about a mile of trail

through the woods.

So far, Dane County has
purchased 302 acres from
the Lyman Anderson Family
Trust at a cost of $3.6 million,
said Laura Hicklin, deputy
director of the countys Land
and Water Resources Department.
A master plan envisions
acquiring a total of 568 acres
through the countys land
conservation fund and various grants. At full buildout,
the park could extend from
the villages southern boundary south to County Hwy. A,

east to County Hwy. MM and

west to Town Park on Glenway Road.
Hicklin said when the park
is fully developed, it would
be one of the countys largest
parks.
The park is still very
young, and we have not made
significant progress in developing (what is in) the master plan, Hicklin said. And
thats OK. Were really proud
of whats happened so far
and particularly proud of the
Friends group and the effort
that the community has made

to get the park up and running.

Thats a great way for the
park to be established.

Friends lead the way

Roe Parker is president
of Anderson Park Friends,
established in 2013, and said
the group has 72 dues-paying
members from the Oregon
area. The organizations
board of directors meets once
a month, and volunteers conduct a workday the second
Saturday of each month.

Metal: Igl started out by making scrap art

Oregon native
Rob Igl talks
about the
six-month
process it took
to build this
dragon originally intended to
serve as a hammock stand. His
first large sculpture, it used a
variety of materials he found
around his
shop house
siding, tires
and saw blades

a unique
creation.

unique in it, he told the

Observer on Friday, a week
before taking part in the 14
South Artists Tour.
As a student at Oregon
High School, he took a couple
art and design classes, but
didnt really do much with
any of it until about five years
ago, when he tried to make a
stand for an oversized hammock purchased by his wife,
Jodi. It didnt take long before
his creative eye started taking
over, and soon, the hammock
stand was turning into something quite different..
I got done with it and said,
That looks like Viking boat

I need a dragons head, Igl
chuckled. Forget the rest of
the hammock. I tied (the hammock) between two posts.
From then, he was hooked
on making scrap art, at
first using what he could
scrounge around his shop to
make small pieces for around
his yard. That, in turn, got
him into welding, and then
one thing led to another, as
friends and neighbors started
taking notice.
Everybodys saying, Oh,
make me a piece, make me a
piece, Igl said. Pretty soon,
I realized there was a commercial value to it. Everybodys like, Wow, man, this
stuff is so cool you need to
get bigger stuff.
While Igl has a day job that
suits him fine, to help scratch
that artistic itch, he and his
wife, Jodi, have been attending fine art shows for the past
two-and-a-half years around
the area, hauling around a
trailer thats packed full of his
sculptures. His art has done
well, but getting a first place
in the Spring Green Art Show
was a proud moment, and it
was recognition for work well
done that he never could have
imagined just a few years ago.
Ive always had a hard
time understanding what
makes my pieces so different
and unique than others, Igl
said. Ive been told that other
people do recycled art, but
they dont do it like I do Im
not sure what that means.

It all starts with an eye

for function, and using parts
for an endless variety of
ways they werent designed
for. Before long, turbines,
wrenches, roof tiles, nails,
and random spare parts are
turned into spiders, bats,
birds, and a wide assortment
of creatures and shapes.
Every little piece is different, Igl said.
Now that hes gotten a
reputation as an artist, Igl is
starting to branch out to find
new materials for his creations. His wife is a fan of
garage sales and auctions,
which have been good sources, but as more people find
out about him, theyre inviting him to pick through
their attics and garages in
search of inspiration.
Nowadays, people dont
want to throw it away, they
want to recycle, and they see
I can make a purpose for it,
he said.
Last week, the Igls traveled to Darlington, where
they met a lady whose father,

a serious collector of items,

had recently passed away.
He was in retail hardware
for 65 years, but she had no
use for any of it, he said.
(She said) come and clean it
up, not a dime (of cost). We
had that pick-up truck just
heaped full.
And there will be a surprise ending when hes done,
as well.
Im going to take her
fathers pieces and make her
something, even though she
said she didnt want anything
for it, Igl said.
Using old materials for
new purposes can often have
unintended consequences.
The first pick he ever did
was at a neighbors house a
few years ago. The man salvaged everything, and was
having some trouble giving
items away, which Igl took
notice of.
So I came home the
very next day and made
him a little pigeon out of
butter knives, because he
was always into passenger
pigeons, he said. I took it
to him, and he started crying.
It just meant to much to have
something back.

Making more
Igl, who documents and
photographs each of his
works, said hes always
working on multiple projects
in his shop and has completed more than 500 sculptures
in the past several years.
That number includes
a staggering variety and
quantity of birds, which are
always a big hit for art collectors.
I cant build enough
birds, he chuckled. Any
time Im prepping for a
show, its make sure Ive got
(plenty).
While a simple project
could take a matter of hours,
larger ones can take weeks or
months. Igl said an average
bird takes about four hours.
During the winter, he tends
to work on fewer projects,
just because of a lack of art
shows during the season, but
Internet sales are beginning
to offset his off season.
The first Packer preseason game, I finished up a
little pony with the barrel keg
in the middle, Igl said. I
posted it at halftime, and by
the end of the fourth quarter
it was sold, with three people
bidding on this. Right now,
the return customers are really coming to me, looking for
pieces.
And dont look for Igl to
stop creating, because at this
point, he said he cant stop
now.
I get so much enjoyment
out of it, Igl said. Even if
I wasnt selling it, Id still be
building it.

The birthplace of studio glass

Retired UW professor featured in 14 South Artists tour

He also continues to display his work at special showcases throughout the state.
Feren has been creating

a variety of media but is best
known for glass sculpture.
Hes also done glass cast

glass outdoor environments,

with concrete and glass.
Ferens worked with architects, designers, engineers and

Madison area in 1982.
His Fitchburg studio and
gallery are open by appointment, and are part of the 14
South Artist tour on Sept.

Feren spoke with the
Observer about his work and
career in June.
OO: How did you hit upon
glass as your primary medium?
Feren: I went to a craft
school out in Maine called
Haystack Mountain School
in 1972 and by chance took

a glass course and have been really about light, which is an

Feren: I think glass is
inherently beautiful, and its
OO: And how did you
sort of a paradox: its durable, wind up at the UW?
and it can last 10,000 years or
Feren: There was a job
be gone in a second. Its very open and they wanted a sculptemporal. In that way its an ture to run the glass program,
amazing medium. Its like a someone with glass experimoment frozen in time, which ence. They hired me. I was

came here for the job.
Theres a reason that peoThe UW-Madison was the
ple love diamonds. Glass is first university glass program.

OO: Was there a technology developed in the 1960s

that didnt exist before? Is
that how this art from came
about, and it didnt really
exist before that?
Feren: It existed in places
like Italy and Czechoslovakia and other places, but it
existed as a factory art form.
And what they did here is
bring it into the art school. It
was basically meant to be so
people could start to develop
technology that would allow
them to set up their own studio as an individual. That was
sort of the breakthrough, and
it took many years to be able
to get the skills and technology for the glass workers to
develop it, because they started out with almost no knowledge in the 60s and 70s.
And now American glass is
sort of world-renowned.

or instruments involved?
Feren: Most of the tools
are ancient tools that have
been used for a thousand
years blowpipes and hand
tools, and tools for forming
as well as a furnace to melt
glass in, and then a reheating
chamber.
OO: I had a friend back in
the 1970s that was very into
glass blowing but he could
never take it beyond a past
time. He tried to turn it into
an occupation but wasnt successful.
Feren: Its very difficult
to make a living. The cost of
producing glass is very high
and the hours that it takes and
the amount of labor is very
intensive. So its not an easy
route. There are people who
make good money at it but
its like anything else.
Its very labor intensive.
Youve got to work hard.
Youre standing in front of a
furnace or youre polishing
heavy glass. Its nothing for
the faint of heart; you have to
be dedicated to it.

OO: Tell me about some of

your more established works.
Feren: A lot of my glasswork has been done for private collectors. But most of
it is commission work, and
its not all glass. Ive got five
major pieces in Milwaukee
and have pieces all over the
country. I do a lot with light
as well fiber optics and LED
OO: What are the key tools light. I also do steel welding.

Village of Oregon

Parks neighborhood maps forwarded

One of the last steps in approving the wooded addition to the
Oregon Parks Neighborhood
made its way through the village
Planning Commission last week.
The preliminary and final plat
maps for the neighborhood were
forwarded to the Village Board at
the commissions Sept. 3 meeting.
The Village Board will vote on
the maps at its Sept. 21 meeting,
village administrator Mike Gracz
said.
The plat maps show where
roads, utility easements and lots

will be placed within the 21-acre

subdivision. The lots are being
marketed as wooded lots and
roughly 70 percent of mature trees
on the property will have to be
maintained or replaced as the parcels are developed.
The subdivision will include 32
single-family lots and 12 duplexes
on the remaining lots. The yetto-be-built street will have drainage swales, rather than traditional
curb and gutter.

ts said that when you love

your job you never work a
day in your life.
For the past 41 1/2 years I have
come to my job first as a Public
Works crewman, ending as Public Works Director. I mowed the
cemetery with a push lawnmower. I walked the streets to read
water meters in home basements.
Often times that meant making appointments on weekends
and fending
off aggressive
dogs. I dug
graves by hand
with a shovel
and pick. I
was the sewer

water tower for
maintenance
or inspection. I was there when
the tin man water tower was
taken off line in the middle of
the night. Since that was during a
snow storm, I went to plow snow
afterward. Many a Christmas
Eve and Christmas morning, my
kids waited for me to come home
from plowing before they opened
their presents. I spent many of
my evenings at Village Board
and committee meetings.
Whenever you flush your toilets, drive on a plowed street,
have your leaves disappear
from your curb, pour a glass
of water, take a shower, play a
game in a newly mowed park or
walk through a cemetery to say

good-bye to someone special,

remember there are many hardworking people behind the scenes
that you may take for granted.
I grew up in Oregon and am
grateful that I have had the
opportunity to give back to the

I would like to thank Maynard

hiring me some 41 years ago. I
thank the past Village presidents
and boards for having faith in
me to do what is best for the Village of Oregon residents. I thank
all department heads from the

which ultimately serves Oregon

Lupus walk hits home

Local woman raising awareness of incurable condition

Jacob Bielanski

If you go

Unified Newspaper Group

Five months into her first

pregnancy 26 years ago,
Oregon resident Patricia
Saunders developed a rash
her doctors dismissed as
pregnancy spots.
Today, those spots
haunt Ana as an incurable
and, in her words, largely
unknown disease called
Lupus. And on 10 a.m.
on Sept. 12, Saunders and
many others will make a
roughly three-mile trek from
Firemans Park in Middleton to the Pheasant Branch
Conservancy to raise awareness of a condition which
afflicts 1.5 million in the
U.S., according to the Lupus
Foundation of America.
Lupus is a condition
where the bodys immune
system attacks healthy cells
and tissues in the body. The
most persistent symptom of
Lupus includes joint pain,
rashes, fever and exhaustion.

she is the only lupus warrior in Oregon, but that

28,000 people in Wisconsin.
The walk would be the

$63,000 in donations. As
of Tuesday, Saunders

personal donation site had

garnered $2,205 in donations, beyond her goal of
$2,000 towards the Wisconsin chapter of the Lupus
Foundation of America.
These donation came in
addition to sponsorship
from her employer, Cleary
Building Corp. of Verona.
Donations to the foundation will be used to further
the organizations goal of
providing research, education and advocacy to
improve the quality of life
for sufferers of lupus.
For Saunders, who was
born and raised on a farm,
the effect of lupus can be
too much. Dealing with
her illness often involves
limiting her time outside in
the sun, and wearing long
sleeves and high-SPF sunblock in those instances
when she must.
I want to be able to continue living my life, she
said. Riding my horses,
riding motorcycles and
watching my step-daughters beautiful little girl

harp in group therapy settings. He does a variety of
performances, background
or center stage, quiet
mood or storytelling, with
a historical background.

When it comes to figuring out when the flu

is going to hit a community, check the sick lists at
area schools. Thats what
researchers are saying after
reviewing first-year data in
a UW School of Medicine
and Public Health study.
The study is led by Oregon native Dr. Jon Temte,
professor of family medicine at UW, who said
research pointed to widespread flu activity in the
community one to two
weeks after the flu appears
in school children.
The children then take
it home to their moms and
dads, younger siblings and
grandparents, he said.
Temte and his team of
researchers tracked influenza-like illness and absences

in the Oregon School District during the last flu season that ended in spring.
The flu activity in schools
was then compared to the
activity seen in UW Health
clinics visited by Oregon
residents. The researchers
found a high correlation
between school absences for influenza-like illness and positive flu cases
reported by the clinics.

District participation
In the Oregon Child
Absenteeism Due to Respiratory Disease Study
(ORCHARDS), parents
who call the Oregon School
Districts absentee phone
line get an automated message about the study. The
message directs those interested in participating in
the study to call the study
phone number for a brief
phone interview.
If the child is eligible,

a research team member

makes a home visit to collect information on symptoms and to collect nose
and throat specimens. One
is used for a rapid flu test
that allows the researchers
to provide results within
45 minutes to two hours.
Another specimen is sent
to the Wisconsin State
Laboratory of Hygiene
for molecular testing that
can identify 17 respiratory
viruses.
During the first year
of the three-year study,
researchers conducted 129
home visits, and Temte said
researchers were thrilled
with the response from the
Oregon community.
Our staff was welcomed
into their homes and parents said they were grateful for the rapid flu test
results, he said.
During the school year,
the research team receives

daily reports from the district on the number of

school absences, how many
students were absent with
illness and how many were
absent with influenza-like
illnesses.
Our hope is to have an
early warning system that
accurately tells us when
influenza is hitting a community and to be able to
generalize the system to
any school district that has
electronic records, Temte
said.
Temte received $1.5 million over three years for
the study from the Centers
for Disease Control and
Prevention. As part of the
partnership with the Oregon
School District, each school
receives $4000 per year in
discretionary money from
the grant. In addition, each
participating child receives
a $20 gift card and a lot of
information on influenza.

Asking for Wisdom

When Solomon was invited by God to ask for whatever
he wanted, he asked not for wealth, or long life, or even
good health, but for wisdom, the discerning heart to know
right from wrong (1 Kings 3). While those other things
(wealth and health) are good in their own way, or conditionally good, wisdom is unconditionally good. Wealth and
health are only good if they are associated with a person of
goodwill, but if the person in question is evil, their wealth
only aids them in their evil designs. But wisdom, by its very
nature, causes one to be good. The wise man is the man
who is concerned, first and foremost, with doing the right
and good actions befitting him. It would indeed be a contradiction to say that someone was very wise but also prone
to frequent moral failings. This doesnt mean that the wise
person never does wrong. No one except God is perfectly
wise or perfectly good. The wise person is always striving
to do the right thing, both in the big and small decisions
of life. It is noteworthy that Solomon, in the conclusion to
Ecclesiastes, a book highlighting the vanity and emptiness
of wealth and most human endeavors, including the search
for knowledge, says that our ultimate purpose is to fear God
and keep his commandments.
Christopher Simon, Metro News Service
Now all has been heard; here is the conclusion of the
matter: Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is
the duty of all mankind. For God will bring every deed into
judgment, including every hidden thing, whether it is good
or evil.
Ecclesiastes 12: 13-14

Oregon Observer

Anderson: Group works with

county to follow master plan
Parker explained that his
group works closely with
Dane County parks officials
to implement items in the
master plan, drafted in 2012,
which lays out a vision for
the next 20 years.
While many details in the
plan have yet to be finalized,
the outline calls for development of Anderson Farm
County Park in three phases
that span 20 years.
There were eight or nine
community input meetings
leading to the final plan,
Parker told the Observer.
The Friends group has a
list of specific goals it hopes
to accomplish in the next five
years.
Components include
developing an informal recreation area on the east side
of Union Road (now a soybean field), a 40-acre offleash dog exercise area near
the intersection of County
A and Union Road, a ball
diamond, a disc golf course,
primitive campsites, hiking
and biking trails and several
areas for agriculture projects.
Those plans will be clearer
next year, Parker said.
In January each year,
we propose things wed like
to do and the county works
with us to help us accomplish them, he explained.
We hold a joint meeting and
agree on goals for the coming year.
Parker said one of the
agriculture areas would be
dedicated for an emergency food pantry garden that
would serve 20 to 30 families. Another would serve as
a market garden, while a
third would be set up for education and demonstrations.
The Friends group has
already been using the park
as an opportunity to teach
kids about the natural world.
In early March, second- and
third-graders from Brooklyn
Elementary School took a
field trip and learned about
tapping maple trees to make
syrup. Oregons Gene Berman explained and demonstrated the process, while
Wayne Ace provided transportation through his bus service.
We wanted the kids to
know that food comes from
the ground and from the
trees, not from the grocery
store, Parker said.
The Friends group has
not limited itself within the
Oregon School District, providing other opportunities to
go with special events such
as Arbor Day. This years
Arbor Day included local
resident Jeff Olson, of Arbor

Systems, who organized five

learning stations for fourthgraders from Prairie View.
Among other activities,
Olson did a demonstration
of how to climb trees with
ropes and harnesses, and
then kids could climb with
the safety equipment if they
wanted, Parker recalled.
He said some church
groups and other social organizations have pitched in to
develop the park. Oregon
Boy Scout Troop 50 was
out in force on Aug. 8,
helping to open the path to a
maple tree grove and remove
invasive plants.
In January, youths from
Operation Fresh Start in
Madison came to the park to
clear trails, burn brush piles
and create wildlife habitat.
Church groups involved
in the parks development
have included Holy Mother
of Consolation Catholic
Church, Community Life
Lutheran Church and St.
Johns Lutheran.

Valuing natural areas

Bob and Sue Eagle joined
the Friends group almost two
years ago, and Sue was soon
elected to the groups board
of directors.
Bob Eagle told the Observer he and his wife place a
high value on natural spaces.
We really appreciate the
outdoors and the efforts to
protect the land, he said.
Theres nothing wrong with
housing and development,
but if everything becomes
housing and development,
you dont have any wildlife
anymore.
Were not radicals, he
was quick to add. We like to
do our part, and I think there
has to be a balance.
Eagle noted that Dane
County cant maintain its
parks without the Friends
groups, and said he was glad
to be one of literally thousands of volunteers throughout Dane County that maintain the parks that the county
provides.
He and Sue have pitched
in by clearing brush and
removing invasive species to
make room for wildflowers
and other native plants.
Eagle said hes been surprised at how much local
interest there is in the park.
There are two entrances
at the north and the east end,
at Main Street and Ridge
View Lane, he said. The
neighbors come by, and we
talk with them and they seem
to be excited.

The master plan for Lyman Anderson Farm County Park includes a set of trails (1), ball diamonds (2), market farm plots (3), an educational area (4) and a dog exercise area (6) in the first phase of development.

the Dane County Parks and

Open Space Plan, a document the county updates
every five years. The plan
called for a county recreation
park located somewhere in
south-central Dane County.
So that need was identified, and then at some
point the Anderson family
approached us and said they
were interested in working
with the county to establish
a park on their property,
Hicklin explained. We only
work with willing sellers,
and this happens to coincide
nicely with our Parks and
Open Space Plan.
She said the county likes
park developments to happen slowly so the community has an opportunity to
get involved and to help
drive some of the decisionmaking.
Roe and the Friends have
done a nice job of that and
theyve been a real asset
to the park, Hicklin said.
The county really enjoyed
working with the Anderson
family on the purchase, and
we think that we created the
framework for a wonderful
park.
But, she said, its really
been the Friends and the
community that propelled
that vision forward and kind
County targeted area
of fostered the development
The original idea for a sooner than we would have
park in the area came from been able to on our own.
Volunteers
have created

Sign of quality care

Country View Veterinary Service gets new display, award

It took almost a year, but

Country View Veterinary
Service has a new sign in
front of its building at the
corner of Fish Hatchery Road
and County Hwy. CC.
The 14-year-old clinic itself
is set back from the road, so
you might not even know its
there. And it took a while to
get all the approvals because
the sign is located along a
highway, explained one of
Country Views owners, Dr.
Emily Leuthner.
It was the talk of the town
because it took forever,
Leuthner said. Were really
proud of it.
The sign gives some name
recognition to the building
located at the busy intersection.
And while the sign is new,
the full-service veterinary
clinic has been an Oregon
business for more than a
decade. Formed after a split
with Oregon Veterinary
Clinic, Country View has
occupied their building just
outside the Village of Oregon
since 2001. The clinic offers
a host of veterinary services
and has about a 50/50 split of
large animal vs. small-animal
patients, Leuthner said.
Since opening, Country
View has had an active role
in the community and has
provided routine and emergency care for pets, horses

The defense also made the play
that sealed the Silver Eagles fate.
After senior quarterback Trent

an interception early in the fourth
quarter, the Silver Eagles had the
ball with a chance to get back in
the game, down 14-0 at the time.

After jumping out to a

was able to get a goal by

kick goal by Mack Nelson.
But senior Zach Stone
put Oregon back up in the
second half with a goal in

be the game-winner.
It was big to get the win.
It was hopefully a motivating, eye-opening position
to be in, head coach Kevin

can swing forward with

Oregon shuts out Monona
Grove in Badger South
opener
Anthony Iozzo
Assistant sports editor

It wasnt just the offense that

impressed during the Oregon
High School football teams first
win over Badger South Conference rival Monona Grove since
2008, but it was the defense, led
by senior lineman Jake Odegard
and junior defensive back Cullen

Gahagen, that stole the show in the

21-0 victory.
The host Panthers had a tall
order trying to stop two-time firstteam All-Badger South senior running back Toren Young and a very
large offensive line, that averages
over 6 feet and 200 pounds, but
it was obvious that Young wasnt
getting the gaps he needed.
The reason for that was not only
the defensive line winning the line
of scrimmage, but it was also the
linebackers and defensive backs
reading the run and group-tackling
Young when he did get past the
D-line.

Young, who had 476 yards in the

first two games of the season, was
stopped on a fourth-and-2 running
play in the first quarter, and that
set the tone. Young finished with
only 77 yards on 21 carries.
Before the game when we were
in the locker room, I kind of called
everybody in, and my main focus
I told them was dont overlook
this game and dont underlook this
game. They are just another if we
execute, said Odegard, who finished with two sacks and another
tackle for a loss. Our defense, the
whole time, was playing like it was
0-0. I told everyone to play like it

Oregon senior Sam Mueller celebrates his 59-yard touchdown in

the first quarter with teammates Friday. Mueller rushed for 100
yards.

Football: Defense holds

Young to under 80 yards

night when senior running
back Sam Mueller fumbled
a handoff only to have the
ball bounce right back into
his arms. He then stormed
past the defense for a
14-yard touchdown.
It all starts with the line,
Mueller said. We work
every day about 90 percent
of the time on the run at
practice. It works here. We
just pound the rock every
time, and we know it is
going to work every time.
Mueller, who rushed for
100 yards on six carries,
also scored the first touchdown of the night. He broke
loose on a 59-yard run to
the end zone.
The Panthers later
grabbed a 14-0 lead in the
first quarter when senior
running back Matt Yates
(20 carries for 96 yards)
broke through the middle
for an 8-yard touchdown.
Monona Grove junior
quarterback Mitch Kelsey
(4-for-11, 49 yards) had a
scary moment in the second
quarter when he was tackled
near the Oregon sideline on
a running play. He landed
on his leg awkwardly and
was carted off the field
before being taken to the
hospital.
Three other quarterbacks
attempted to take his place,
but the Panthers defense
made it tough on them.
Senior Jake Soderholm was
1-for-3 for 21 yards, while

sophomore Alec Ogden

threw both interceptions to
Gahagen. Senior Carmelo
Curatola was 0-for-1 and
was sacked by Odegard.
They had some key
injuries that definitely hurt
them, but pretty much overall, we dominated them,
head coach Dan Kissling
said. It is a huge win, and I
cant say enough about how
our kids responded.
Senior running back
Lucas Mathews also had
a decent night running the
ball with 11 carries for 52
yards.
Oregon (3-0 overall, 1-0
Badger South) looks to continue the momentum into
next week with a chance to
match the best start for the
program since 2004. The
Panthers take on Madison
Edgewood (0-3, 0-1) at Breitenbach Stadium in Middleton at 7 p.m.
We can play this good,
but I think we can still play
better, Odegard said. No
one is going to play perfect,
but we can get closer to perfect next week and every
week after that.
But until then, Oregon is
going to cherish one of the
biggest wins under Kissling.
We needed something
like this. Our guys believed
in the game plan. They got
better, and as they believed
it more and more, they just
came to play, Kissling
said. Once we get confidence, I think we are a really good football team.

The Oregon High

School girls tennis team
traveled to Stoughton
on Tuesday for a Badger
South dual, falling 5-2.
Despite the final score,
the Panthers competed
valiantly, clawing their
way through several close
matches.
This is actually our
first South Badger conference loss so that actually
feels pretty good because
weve been a pretty solid
team so far this year, said
Davenport. Losing to a
team like Stoughton, especially since we just lost
to them in the Stoughton
Invite, actually motivates
us more. And the fact that
we still have one match
left against them in conference, we really want a
redemption round.

better long-term fit.
Whalers president Ben Kluesner,
part of an ownership group that
includes Oregonian Ben Cowan, told
the Observer this week the Whalers
are a gritty, competitive bunch, in
part because Tier 3 players are less
heralded than the Tier 1 colleagues
playing on teams like the Madison
Capitols of the USHL (U.S. Hockey
League). While those top-tier players
have a better shot of playing Division
1 hockey and having a shot at the pros,
its all the same goal when they get on
the ice.
All the kids in junior hockey are
trying to do the same thing go play
hockey in college, Kluesner said.
And every hockey player at that age
level thinks theyre going to play in the
NHL some day.
With a long schedule that runs
through March 12, playing teams in
cities like Chicago, La Crosse, Rochester and Peoria, the Whalers are representing the state and theyre doing
so in a small village with a big hockey
core.

When Kluesner and his ownership

group bought the Davenport, Iowabased Quad City Junior Flames in
spring 2013, and later received permission to relocate to Wisconsin, Oregon
was already in the back of his mind as
a possible destination. Kluesner and
his family had already visited the area
quite often, as his son had been tutored
by Oregon resident and noted goalie
coach Larry Clemens.
My son would come up and play
and work out with Larry and the goalies, and all summer, hed stay Sunday
night to Tuesday or Wednesday night,
Kluesner said. We just love the community there and the ice arena, and
theyve treated us very well.
Through Clemens, who now runs
a new hockey rink in Sun Prairie,
Kluesner got to see the town and its
people, up close and personal. He liked
what he saw, and he remembered.
The team, renamed the Wisconsin Whalers, played home games at
Hartmeyer Arena in Madison for the
past two seasons, primarily because it

North American 3 Hockey League

The primary mission of the league, according to its website, is to
provide a structured developmental environment for student-athletes
whose youth options are limited but are still reaching their potential
and have aspirations of playing in the North American Hockey League
(NAHL) or United States Hockey League (USHL), and eventually the
NCAA and American Collegiate Hockey Association (ACHA). Players
must be at least 16 years old but no older than 20.
The league started in the 1980s and is one of 11 USA Hockeysanctioned Tier III junior leagues. It has 34 teams in 17 states. For

immediately had the amenities needed for the league to approve a move,
Kluesner said. On the ice, they thrived
as well, finishing with a 26-15-7 record
in 2013-14 and a 29-13-5 mark last
year, in which they made it to the divisional finals.
Yet, all the while, Kluesner said he
was working to bring them to Oregon,
where he felt they could find a better
fit, and a long-term home.
We werent getting the support
in Madison and its a tough market
there; theres a lot going on, Kluesner
said. As an ownership group, we
wanted to be in a community where
they would back us and we would back
them. Its better for everybody.
Another advantage to Oregon was
the fact that its an established hockey
community, Kleusner said.
Were trying to grow a team, he
said. The youth program in Oregon is
a fantastic program and we want those
families and those kids involved. Our
boys will be helping with the youth
program on the ice and in the community. Wherever we can help.

Getting ready
Players can be recruited for the team
from anywhere in the world, so team
officials try to sell them on their opportunities, and also where theyll be playing. Kluesner said all the amenities
offered in Oregon and the Madison
area are definite selling points.
You try to sell them on your team

and what you do and try to get them to

college, he said.
Kluesner said in each of the past two
years, around a dozen Whalers players
have gone on to play in colleges, either
ACHA, club hockey at larger schools
without NCAA-sanctioned teams like
Iowa State, or NCAA Division III
schools
Theyre going to play hockey in
college, which helps them get grants,
he said. It helps them pay for school.
During the season, players generally stay with host families in the area,
sometimes pairing up. As Tier 3 tryouts just wrapped up a few weeks ago,
most of them arrived in the Oregon
area less than two weeks ago and have
been quickly working to come together
before Fridays season opener.
Fridays home opener is also Magic
98.1 FM Family Night, featuring
a live broadcast of the game. Tickets
are $7 for adults and kids 12 and older; kids under 12 are $4. Family Fun
Packs - four tickets, four hot dogs and
four beverages - are $35. The Whalers
will donate a portion of the proceeds to
the 911 Fund. The Oregon Ice Arena
will offer a variety of concessions at
the Whalers games this year, but not
beer, after representatives from the
arena last month withdrew a request to
do so.
Its low-cost fun and very competitive junior hockey, he said. Families
can come and have fun, and we try to
keep it less than what it costs to go to
a movie. They can come and see an
exciting game of hockey with friends
and wrap yourself around a team and
watch some really competitive teams
battle it out on the ice.
