From the Editor-news and notes


Yes, the World Series is over but THE CUBBIES WON! Sorry folks, but Im from Chicago
and after 108 years of waiting I think it deserves another mention.
It has been a very destructive time in our country, from the protestors across the country, to
the massive earthquakes, to the horrible forest fires. The loss of one of our major tourist
towns in Gatlinburg has hit home with many friends and loved ones in Tennessee. Businesses
and homes have been destroyed and they now need our help to get them back on their feet
again. If you would like to donate please consider the American Red Cross or any other reputable organization.
Weve all had our Thanksgiving dinners and are in the Christmas holiday shopping mode.
Weve spent hours on the road, miles on our feet, and oh, the many dollars have been spent.
Please add one, two or even three to your shopping cart to send to a child or adult whose
name who may be able to retrieve from your local church or local organization. Also, remember when writing your Christmas cards to include one or more, to our servicemen and women
who will not be home this Christmas with their families.
In passing; America, and here at home, we have lost many wonderful friends and family. Our
thoughts and prayers to you all. And, to those whose lives were lost in the recent accidents, snowstorms, tornados, fires, floods. and to those whose lives have been lost to the bombings that have occurred overseas.
Get Well Wishes to all of our friends and neighbors.
UPCOMING EVENTS; See our pages for the wonderful events that are scheduled during the month. Be sure to ck page 19 for the events
for church and school fairs and holiday dinners.
Birthday Wishes to all of our friends and neighbors;

On behalf of Laona Fire Dept & MABAS division 153, we would like express our deepest gratitude to all of
the departments that responded to the fire in Laona last night. We thank each and every department and member. Without all of you, this situation could have gotten out of control very quickly.
We would like to thank dispatch, Forest County Emergency Management, Forest County highway dept and
Laona road crews for maintain safe conditions on the icy roads, public service for the rapid response, Forest
County officers for helping to direct traffic, State Patrol Officer Jason Babich, Greg Stauber for fast response
with heavy equipment, community members Tammy and Ray Collins & Lindsey Schreiber for the food and
refreshments down at the town hall, Al Murray for opening up the hall & dealing with the Town side of this,
Paula Reeves for the water, Crandon Fire department for the marc repeater, Laona Rescue for the ambulance
crews, Kenneth Kevilus and Joe Krawze for the diesel to keep the trucks running, and Tim Magnin Oconto
County Emergency Mgmt and regional coordinator for MABAS.
The Suring Antique Tractor Club is once again sponsoring Santa's visit to Suring! He will be at the
Suring Library on Saturday, December 10 from
10 am - 1 pm. There will also be crafts at the library!

Tim was truly the glue that held this operation together. Tim was the behind the
scenes and coordinator of all of the
MABAS resources that were pulled from
all of the different counties. Without Tim
and MABAS this response on this level
would have been nearly impossible.
Fire Chief David Rosio, Incident Command Scott Reeves, and Operational Command Eric Johnson you all deserve the
deepest gratitude and respect.
Agencies that responded to this fire were:
Laona Fire, Crandon Fire, Wabeno Fire,
Argonne Fire, Townsend Fire, Riverview
Fire, Lakewood Fire, Newald Fire,
Longlake Fire, Goodman Fire, the strike
team from Langlade County -Norwood
Fire, White Lake Fire, Town of Antigo
Fire, Town of Langlade Fire, the strike
team from Oneida County that was activated with 5 tenders to respond and Hiles Fire for the standby coverage.
This is a great example of why MABAS is so important to have in our communities to keep our residents safe
and NUMBER 1 to make sure each and every one of our firemen is able to go home safe and sound!
This being the first ever MABAS card to be activated in Forest County, JOB WELL DONE BY ALL. As with
any large scale event, there were lessons learned and we all can say that we successfully responded to this
fire, property was damaged but no one was injured in the fire or the fighting of the fire, and everyone went
home safe and sound.
Again, THANK-YOU!

What a wonderfully busy month its been Wabeno. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your tables filled with food, family and friends.
I just love this time of year. Christmas is not a time nor a season, it is a state of
mind. Christmas is a feeling.
Many area businesses had specials and events going on for Small Business
Saturday and the town was bursting with traffic and activities. I know our
Christmas Open House was a huge success and after talking with other business owners, they all had a really busy Saturday. Thank you all for supporting
small businesses. The wonderful sentiments from the customers who made
their way out to Wabeno for Small Business Saturday were simply heartwarming. Seeing our locals and out of towners out, having a fun time, and supporting small businesses makes the Christmas season even better.
I hope our deer hunting friends were successful. I didnt hear many big buck
stories but I noticed a lot of hunters up for the 2nd weekend.
December 3rd is the annual Wabeno Winterfest at the Wabeno High School.
Crafters, vendors and food. Santa comes at noon!
Town News: On Sunday, November 27th, the Wabeno Town Board made their
final decision regarding the United Area Rescue Squad contract. After several
complaints and concerns regarding the ambulance service, Wabeno Town
Board decided to terminate the contract with the UARS, effective immediately.
Dont worry, our town will have ambulance coverage. Our town board members have contracted with Laona Rescue Squad for their services.

Christmas Heart Tree Serves


the Community
A joint effort by the fine folks at the Christian Pantry and the

the heart child you want to
purchase a gift for, wrap the
gift, please remember to secure the heart to the gift so it
will get to the correct child,

The annual Friends of the Library Craft


Show drew hundreds of holiday shoppers
from the Lakewood and Townsend Town
Halls to Carter Casino.

By the time you read this, you will probably be putting up your Christmas tree, blaming the dryer for shrinking
your pants, and wondering how you can possibly get everything done before the holidays come roaring in. I share
your angst.

There were holiday dolls and clothes,


towels, books, treats for people and pets,
kitchen decorations, jewelry, bird feeders
made with empty tea pots, quilts, signs
and posters and much much more.

I really do love Thanksgiving though; I hate to see it go by so fast. It has always been my favorite holiday,
probably because its about appreciating, not accumulating. Its really the perfect combination: feasting and family
taking the time to reflect upon blessings. I have so much to be thankful for, and I like that theres a holiday where
I can express that without sounding churchy. It also doesnt hurt that I love all the foods connected with it.

It was a beautiful day to be out holiday


shopping!

Maybe I like Thanksgiving so much because it was a BIG deal when I was growing up on the farm. With
at least 16-20 people to feed, Mom had to roast a huge turkey. Funny, it seemed about the same year after year,
but my father always said it was her best one ever. No one ever argued; you wouldnt be so bold as to argue
with my father over something that serious. And Moms stuffing and gravy! If I live to be a hundred, I will
never be able to duplicate that.

National Guard and


Reserve
Mobilized as of May 5, 2015
The Department of Defense announced an increase in activated
National Guard and reserve component members this week for the
Army National Guard, Army Reserve and Air National Guard while
the Navy Reserve, Marine Corps Reserve, and Air Force Reserve
announced a decrease of activated members. Coast Guard Reserve
numbers did not change from last week. The net collective result is
an increase of 292 activated National Guard and reserve component
members in comparison to last week.
At any given time, services may activate some units and individuals
while deactivating others, making it possible for these figures to
either increase or decrease. The total number currently on active
duty from the Army National Guard and Army Reserve is 14,438;
Navy Reserve, 2,741; Marine Corps Reserve, 954; Air National
Guard and Air Force Reserve, 5,732; and the Coast Guard Reserve,
209. This brings the total National Guard and reserve component
personnel who have been activated to 24,074, including both units

The Pine Needle Quilters met Nov. 14th with 30 members present. Members brought items for the food pantry. We were
reminded of the Christmas Party on Dec. 5th. Cost is $10.00. It
will take place at Tracy's Place with pork and chicken and all
the trimmings. You can begin to arrive at 4:30 and eat at
5:30. There will be the voting for the Dream Gingerbread
House challenge, also bring your children's Christmas stocking
(s), and the homemade ornament for the exchange. There will
be a 50/25/25 raffle and as always we'll have the Reindeer
Game to be played.
The PNQ retreat will be at Waubee Lake at Camp Nana. Cost is
$20 a night or $40.00 for the whole time. Dates are Feb. 16, 17,
18. You do your own project. See newsletter for details.
There will be a sewing day Jan. 14. We will be making "The
Magic Pillow". These will be given to the Women's Abuse
Center. These can be made for either a women, or child. There
will be a pot luck lunch.
The meeting ended with four demo's. Laurie Pigetti did a tree
skirt, Laurie Schoenebeck showed how to make "Fabric Covered Notepads", Diana Napier showed us a cute phone cover
made from felt. Kay Rankel and Debby Stellmacher gave us
ideas on how to make "Pop Out
Christmas cards".

After I started my own family, I continued to carry


on many traditions such as sharing what we are
thankful for before we eat. I remember so many of
those moments. One of my favorites happened
when my son was about eight. He said he was
thankful that his father didnt tell Mom I drove
the Jeep down the lane and hit a tree, not hard, just
kinda bumped it. Or when my daughter said she
was grateful her mom was an English teacher because reading books is the most fun you can have
in this house.
Yes, I have wonderful memories of Thanksgiving
Past, and not one of them involves shopping. I am
so glad that I did not fall victim to the Black Friday Crazies. I never got up before dawn to shop. Not that I am criticizing those who do. If its your thing; fine.
I just hope you saved enough to make it worth the effort, and that the gifts you bought are appreciated. I read
somewhere that 75% of all the toys bought for Christmas end up in the landfill or at a thrift store by the Fourth
of July. Ugh.
Ive also read that at this time of the year charges on many peoples credit cards will outlive their purchases.
Ouch. That makes me grateful for another thing: my parents taught me how to handle money. Oh, oh, I seem to
be wandering off topic. Could the tight fit of my formerly comfortable jeans be cutting off the oxygen to my
brain? If so, it has got to be that stupid dryer

Riverview Fire, Doty, Crooked Lake, and Mountain


Fire Departments participated in a combined practice
burn in Oconto at an abandoned building recently.
Practice burns are great training for the Volunteer
firefighters old and new.

The work never ends! Here Club President Gary Wagner does some welding
on the ski of one of our Ultimate Snow drags. All the equipment will be fully
checked over before the snow flies. AWSC do a "Freeze Up" dance first as
we need a good frozen base to harden up low lying areas and to have a nice
cold base for the groomers to lay a good trail that stays.

So, winter is coming. It always does. Are you prepared? Is your fido prepared? With winter comes challenges
for your fido. Their favorite spots to do their duty gets covered up by snow. They need to find another or
more spots. Their paw pads can freeze! Their skin can get frost bite too. Cold, wind, below zero temps can be
our fidos enemy. If they usually are outside for extended times during the
summer months, the time outside should be gauged now by the cold. Even just
snowing can cause them problems. They get their coat wet, snow clings to
them and freeze. They can catch colds like we do. Cleaning the wet snow off
them and warming them after they get back inside makes for a warm and
healthy fido. Limiting the use of ice and snow melting agents where they frequent can help them with paw pad burns. Yes, their paw pads are more sensitive in winter. If you think they have caught a cold or burned or frozen their
paw pads, consult with your veterinarian. Wisconsin has wonderful winters for
all of us to enjoy including our fidos. I didnt mean to forget our fluffies too.
They can get the same ailments and adverse conditions when they go outside during the winter months too.
Happy winter everyone and a happy winter to your fidos and fluffies too.

Sevier County, City of Gatlinburg, and Great Smoky Mountains National


Park officials have reported widespread fire damage and continued fire
activity throughout the Gatlinburg area and much of Sevier County including Wears Valley, Pigeon Forge, and Jones Cove. Gatlinburg City officials
have reported numerous structures completely lost to fire including businesses in the downtown area and private homes throughout the area.
Unpredicted, extreme weather conditions on Sunday afternoon through
Monday led to the exponential spread of fires both inside and outside of the
National Park. Severe wind gusts of over 80 mph, unprecedented low relative humidity, and extended drought conditions caused the fire burning in
the National Park to spread rapidly and unpredictably, in spite of suppression efforts on Sunday that included helicopter water drops. Wind gusts
carried burning embers long distances causing new spot fires to ignite across the north-central area of the park and into Gatlinburg.
In addition, high winds caused numerous trees to fall throughout the evening on Monday bringing down power lines across the area
that ignited additional new fires that spread rapidly due to sustained winds of over 40 mph.
Conditions remain extremely dangerous with trees expected to continue to fall. Officials are asking that motorists stay off the roadways throughout the area. Travel in the Gatlinburg area is limited to emergency traffic only. The National Park is closed at the Gatlinburg entrance.
Officials have received tremendous support throughout the region included state resources and the deployment of the National
Guard by Governor Haslam. The Red Cross established shelters in both Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge where over 1,300 people have
gathered to seek refuge.
At this time, officials do not have information to release regarding the current size of the fire, the number of structures burned, or
injuries. Additional news updates will be provided as information becomes available.
