Randolph seeks approval
for plant improvements
RANDOLPH The vil-
lage of Randolph is requesting
approval from the Department
of Natural Resources for con-
struction of improvements to its
wastewater treatment plant.
The plant was constructed in
1983. It has sufficient capac-
ity to serve the village for the
next 20 years, but much of the
equipment is in need of replace-
ment or rehabilitation.
The proposed improvements
include rehabilitation of the
collection system, the final clar-
ifier equipment and the tank.
The mechanical fine screen,
mechanical influent pumping
and screen process need re-
placement, and the spare aera-
tion basin as digester and sludge
storage needs repurposing.
Clyman man
found dead
in his home
CLYMAN A Clyman man
was found dead in his home by
a co-worker Tuesday night.
At approximately 8:07 p.m.
deputies responded to the 900
block of Main Street in the vil-
lage of Clyman where the body
was discovered.
The medical examiner re-
sponded and the incident is un-
der investigation.
Dodge County Sheriff Dale
Schmidt said there is no foul
play suspected.
Thought
for today
Now it is required that those
who have been given a trust
must prove faithful.
(1 Corinthians 4:2)
PRAYER: Lord, keep us from
being fair-weather Christians
and faithless friends. Fill our
hearts with your Spirit and lead
us daily to fight the good fight
of the faith. Use us in your ser-
vice for Jesus sake. Amen.

The aeration system needs
upgrades on blowers, diffus-
ers and the mechanical pro-
cess. Upgrades and repairs are
also needed for three existing
buildings including HVAC and
plumbing.
The mechanical solids pump-
ing and process, related electri-
cal controls and miscellaneous
site work are also on the list.
The total capital cost of the
improvements is estimated to
be approximately $3.25 mil-
lion.
Randolph anticipates financ-
ing the project through the
Clean Water Fund loan pro-
gram and is seeking additional
funding via a community de-
velopment block grant.

self to a 16-year-old Sun Prairie
girl.
Fredrick Grignon
Fredrick R. Grignon pleaded

terial. Two more charges of ex-
posing a child to harmful mate-
rial were dismissed but read in.
Grignon was sentenced to 60

Garcia speaks at local library fundraiser
By Becky Vosters
beckyv@wdtimes.com
Sportscaster Jessie Garcia
shared stories about her experi-
ences with the Packers and her
book My Life with the Green
and Gold at the Watertown
Elks Lodge Tuesday night.
The event, Tailgating with
Jessie Garcia, was a fundraiser
for the Watertown Public Li-
brary to raise money for a pro-
posed expansion and a kickoff
for the 2015 football season.
Prior to Garcias talk there
was a tailgating meal and a
chance to buy raffle tickers for
various Packer items. A football
signed by the 2014 team was
one of the items raffled off.
Peg Checkai, the library di-
rector, said Garcia has been on
her radar for a while now.
Shes in a male-dominated
field and its very engaging to
hear about her experiences,
Checkai said.
Voice of the people
Editor, Daily Times:
Having just finished read-
ing an editorial by the Daily
Times own managing editor
this evening, concerning back-
to-school safety, I had some
additional thoughts. The article
primarily focused on the re-
sponsibility of us adult drivers
to be more cautious and aware
as the students will be out and
about soon. This is definitely
some sound and timely advice.
However, I think a friendly
but firm, reminder to all those
students out there might be ap-
propriate as well.
There are a lot of bicycle rid-
ers as well as pedestrian traf-
fic out there before and after
school. Hopefully many kids
took the opportunity to attend
this summers police depart-
ment sponsored bicycle rodeo
to learn about safe bike riding.
Or perhaps there may have
been some other local riding
safety programs as well. The
point being, there are rules
of the road for the kids ( and
adults) on bikes as well.
As an example, this sum-
mer I was going north on North
Fourth Street, soon to turn right
onto Division Street. The last
block or two I saw three boys
(10- to 11-year-olds?) riding
parallel to me on the sidewalk.
When I approached the turn,
all three never looked back,
slowed or stopped, but cruised
right across Division just prior
to my turning. Had I not kept
an eye out, the results may have
been disastrous.
I often see bikers coast
around stop signs, and some-
times lights as well. If youre
on the street, you have to ob-
serve a drivers rules as well.
In addition, student pedes-
trians are often walking in
groups talking, texting, talking
on phones, etc., and dont pay
close attention at intersections
either. Just a friendly reminder,
it just takes a few seconds to
stop and look around so all of
you can be safe.
Having said all of this ... I
hope that all of us here in town
have a safe school season this
year.
Ron Weel
Editor, Daily Times:
On Saturday, Aug. 15 some-
thing very special and very
significant happened in Water-
town. One hundred twenty four
golfers plus another 70 or so
people afterwards took part in a
Make A Wish (M-A-W) Char-
ity event held at beautiful Wa-
tertown Country Club.
Through the generosity of
area businesses, individuals
and some super volunteers we
Checkai said the event was
also meant to get people in-
volved with the library.
Were doing it to engage
people in reading and literacy,
Checkai said. Were trying
to get people into reading by
bringing a local author into the
community.
This was Garcias first time in
Watertown which she deemed
as strange due to the number of
places shes been in the state.
Garcia said she always want-
ed to be a reporter, but sports
were not a part of her life grow-
ing up. She was an only child
with a single mother and be-
cause of that sports were lack-
ing in her life.
I dont remember attend-
ing or even watching a single
sporting event prior to the age
of 10, Garcia said.
Garcia was born and raised
in Madison. She attended Bos-
ton University before coming
were able to raise $24,500 for
M-A-W Wisconsin. For those
familiar with M-A-W, you al-
ready know what a great char-
ity it is with over 80 percent
of all funds going directly to
wish giving. For those not fa-
miliar M-A-W grants wishes
to children of ages 2 1/2 to 18
years old who have life threat-
ening illness, and their families.
Most younger children wish to
go to Disney World. But also,
some like to meet a sports hero,
be on a TV show set, have a
playground built at their home,
shopping sprees, etc. We did
raise enough money to grant at
least four wishes.
We always have a wish fam-
ily come and speak about their
experience with M-A-W. This
year the family from Lake Mills
could not make it due to the fact
their 4-year-old son was in the
hospital. Auden and his family
received a wish last year with
funds raised at our 2015 golf
event. Auden is awaiting a liver
transplant. Please keep him and
his family in your thoughts and
prayers. Someone who did at-
tend our event was Patti Gor-
sky, president/CEO of M-A-W
Wisconsin. Patti gave a nice
talk on M-A-W, their mission
and what they do for children.
She also mingled and met a lot
of people that night. Appreci-
ate her co-worker, Scott, who
brought her, as Pattis car broke
down on her way to Watertown.

Baraboo high school adopts new
code of conduct for sporting events
BARABOO (AP) Parents
and other fans must now adhere
to a new code of conduct at
high school sporting events in
Baraboo.
The Baraboo High School
Parent/Fan Code of Conduct
was developed this summer
at two meetings consisting of
about 25 students, parents and
coaches. Athletic Director Jim
Langkamp presented it Mon-
day night at the Baraboo School
Board meeting.
back to Madison and working
at WISC for two years. From
there Garcia landed a job at
TODAYS TMJ4 in Milwau-
kee where she has worked ever
since.
Garcia has been a sideline
reporter for the Packers since
2003 and was also the co-host
of The Mike McCarthy Show.
Garcia was one of the first
women in the country to host
an NFL coachs show. She
was also one of the first female
sportscasters in Wisconsin.
There were zero female
sports anchors in the entire
state of Wisconsin, Garcia
said. There was one sports re-
porter.
This made Garcias experi-
ences unique in a number of
ways and she shares those sto-
ries in her book.
After outlining the book and
a few of these experiences Gar-
cia showed a few short video
the morning. Shaun Finley for
his auctioneer abilities, and to
my wife Mari for allowing one
whole room in our house to be
used for three months for all the
M-A-W items accumulated.
Family Affair Karaoke pro-
vided entertainment later and
was kind enough to donate that
for us.

A large percentage of our
spectators are very positive and
very supportive, Langkamp
said. We dont want them to be
put in a tough spot in the stands.
But coaching turnover has
been a problem, he said, add-
ing that its difficult to build a
successful program if coaches
dont decide to stay in their po-
sitions.
We want to treat our coaches
with respect, Langkamp said.

segments of stories she did with
TMJ4. These included a day in
the life of Mike McCarthy, a
tour of Ron Roenickes home
when he was still coaching the
Brewers and a day in the life of
Paul Chryst, the Badgers head
coach.
Following her talk and vid-
eos Garcia answered questions
and signed books.
Garcia has two more books
coming out in the next year.
The first will be No Stone Un-
turned about Olympic speed
skater Casey FitzRandolph and
will come out in two months.
The second, which snowballed
from this first book, will be
about the history of the Wiscon-
sin athletes in the Olympics and
will come out around the time
of the games next year.
I love writing books, Gar-
cia said. Working with TV
things are always cut so its nice
to freely write what I want.
