If a historical societys mission is to remember and preserve a communitys past, what better way than to restore that communitys first home? Thats what the Stoughton Historical Society has been doing since about 2000, and its members are planning a grand opening of the Luke Stoughton House with an ice cream social on July 2. Thats 166 years after the citys namesake purchased the land on which he built that first house. The state was still a territory back then, notes Nancy Hagen, a member of the Historical Society and one of the key people

Stoughton educators will get a small raise under an agreement approved by the Stoughton school board Monday night. The contracts unanimously approved by the board after a closed session will mean an average raise of about 2.6 percent, superintendent Tim Onsager said. Erica Pickett, the districts director of business services, said in an email that the raises will total $339,000 altogether for the district and its more than 250 full-time teachers. Negotiations between the district and its teachers union began last year but were in limbo for months after a Dane County judge last fall struck down parts of Act 10, the state law that essentially ended collective bargaining rights for most public workers. That ruling is still under appeal. In Stoughton, the two sides returned to the bargaining table April 1 after a state appellate court refused to stay the lower courts ruling pending that appeal. The two sides apparently reached an agreement at that April 1 meeting, according to a memo to the school board. The teachers union ratified the agreement last week, Onsager said. I think it was a good settlement that was in the best interest of the staff and the district, he said Tuesday morning. Ryan Reischel,
co-president of the Stoughton teachers union, had not returned a phone call seeking comment by the Hub s press time. The school district is facing a budget shortfall next year, but Onsager said the district considered both its financial situation and the rate of inflation. District officials have also pointed to the cost of raises in the context of the districts total budget, which is about $36 million this year. Onsager said the agreement backed by the board Monday protects the financial stability of the district but also honors the great work our staff is doing. The board on April 8 had already approved small raises for the districts administrators and non-represented staff. The raises for administrators averaged about 2.3 percent and totaled $35,500, while raises for non-union staff averaged 2.5 percent and totaled $24,302 for special services employees, $16,453 for administrative assistants and $8,550 for bus drivers. The district will now turn its attention to contracts for its custodians and its educational assistants. It has a total of 422 employees, including its teachers, according to a board memo. The contracts approved by the board Monday cover the current fiscal year that ends June 30. Negotiations for the next one are still to come.

Longtime member Pundt shares lessons, insight from Stoughton school board
Derek Spellman
When the Stoughton school board met Monday night, it was the first time in more than nine years it did so without having John Pundt as a member.
Pundt, a senior behavioral health consultation specialist at the University of Wisconsin
Pundt
Medical Foundation, opted not to seek a fourth term this year after working with three superintendents and working on two different referendum issues one that failed in 2005 and one that passed in 2010. He has high praise for the district,
and his colleagues have high praise for him. Much of what he shared in an interview with Hub centered on his own education as a board member a process that the three new board members have just begun. One of the lessons
they will learn is about the constraints of the office itself, he said. Another is just how much there is to learn. And as the district eyes a potential referendum next year, he has insights into why the 2005 measure failed.

Pundt first ran for the school board in 2004 partly because he said he was encouraged to do so by school board members he knew at the time. He soon

just to name a few. Then, a board member has to learn how to apply those topics to his or her own school district. No two districts are alike, he said. And part of what Pundt highlighted is the myth that school districts have a great deal of local control. Part of what you learn on the board is what you cant do, either because of funding (on a per-pupil basis the Stoughton Area School District is among the lowest funded districts in Dane County), because of ever-growing state and federal mandates for education or because of what a district is already legally bound to do. The reality at the end of the day is the choices are much narrower, he said. The school board has increasingly highlighted and called for reforms to Wisconsins school finance system as part of a broader effort to show how much of what happens with its budget depends on developments at the state level. Yet Pundt also points to what the district has been able to achieve despite its funding constraints. He also thinks the difference between where the district is now versus nine years ago is tremendous, citing everything from the revised school schedules to the new digital fabrication laboratory to the success of its academic and extracurricular teams. He also lauded Onsager. The district is very, very well-run, he said. I challenge anybody to come in and

Agreement reached after court ruling
Continued from page 1 We would like to get those started as soon as we can, Onsager said. The parameters for those negotiations could be another matter. Although a Dane County judge last year struck down parts of the collective bargaining law, an appeal on that decision is still pending. The original ruling has drawn competing interpretations. Some argue that it only applies to the two unions that brought the lawsuit in the first place, while others contend it extends to all school districts, cities and counties. Others have argued the ruling means those entities can but dont have to collectively bargain for more than wages. Reischel and the union have previously argued the lower court ruling means they can bargain for anything economic everything from sick leaves to reimbursable leave to health insurance to retirement to teacher preparation time. Under Act 10, unions can only collectively bargain for wages up to the rate of inflation unless they get voter

Stoughton Area School District
Board OKs new standard for terminations

Derek Spellman
Teachers would face more defined criteria for being fired in the middle of the school year after the school board approved revisions to the employee handbook earlier this month. The revised handbook allows a teacher to be terminated for misconduct and now provides 10 examples of offenses that constitute misconduct, such as unsatisfactory annual performance evaluations, acts of physical abuse or harassment, immoral conduct and theft or falsification of school district records. That new criteria, one of a couple dozen handbook changes approved unanimously by the school board
on April 8, will replace a standard where the district could terminate an employee in the midst of the school year for good and sufficient reason. Superintendent Tim Onsager told the Hub that part of the reason for the new misconduct standard is that some staff had questions about what exactly good and sufficient reason means. When the school board approved the districts first handbook last year, the document defined good and sufficient reason as any reason that reflects an inexcusable substantial violation of instructions, or neglect of duty of a substantial character, or any misconduct inconsistent with the employer employee relationship and which might injuriously affect the Districts operations.
Handbook changes
Sets new criteria for terminating teacher during school year Adds language that district values seniority Details how the district conducts personnel investigations Allows teachers to use personal leave time to attend their childs parent teacher conference
I think some of it was more to assure staff and define what it means, Onsager said of the new termination standard and other changes in the handbook. The district can still opt not to renew a teachers contract for either budgetary reasons (a lay-off) or non-budgetary reasons at the end of the school
year under the handbook. The latter scenario allows the district to do so as long its action is not arbitrary and capricious, a lower standard than what teachers publicly sought last year as the district was crafting the handbook. Those standards remain unchanged. Ryan Reischel, co-president of the Stoughton teachers
union, did not return messages seeking comment. The different standard for termination was among twodozen revisions approved by the school board following several months of review by a district committee and outreach to district staff, school officials said. Some of the changes were clarifications, such as noting the handbook does not apply to part-time staff and better defining the work day. The changes also added language showing the district values seniority and spelling out how the district conducts an investigation into a personnel matter. Teachers last year said the handbook eroded seniority and protections for staff. Administrators and school board members said the
employees were still protected by state and federal laws as well as the standards and grievance process inside the handbook itself. The school board approved the districts first handbook in April 2012, after new state legislation essentially ended collective bargaining rights for most public workers. The handbook replaces agreements that Stoughton teachers and staff previously negotiated via collective bargaining, covering everything from pay and benefits to workplace safety and teachers preparation time for class. Onsager said the district will review the handbook at least annually as it did this year. This is a living, breathing document, he told the Hub.
Elementary school days to lengthen under new schedule

Derek Spellman
Stoughton elementary school students will go to school for 11 minutes longer as part of a new, standardized schedule that starts next school year. Classes would dismiss at 3:05 p.m. instead of 2:54 p.m. under the new system, which also restructures recess periods and ensures that students in each grade level will take the same core subject classes at the same time, regardless of which of the districts three elementary schools they attend. The principals of all three schools have spent the last year working on revising the schedules, they told the school board in an April 8 presentation. The new schedule does not require board approval. The middle school went to a revised schedule this year, while the high school has already outlined its planned schedule changes for next school year. The main factor was to be able to have more standardized blocks of time, Kegonsa Elementary School principal Fred Trotter told the Hub. All three schools currently build their schedules around the times they schedule for art, music and physical education classes, leaving the scheduling for core subject classes like reading and math to individual teachers, the principals said. Schedules for art, music and physical education now operate on a five-day cycle. But that system created some inequities, the administrators said. Early dismissals or days off from school often fall on Fridays, so students who take music or art on those days lose out on that class time. Different grades also get different amounts of art and music instruction under the current schedule, the principals said. Next year, art, music and physical education courses will take place in a standard 50-minute block of time that will operate on a four-day cycle instead of the five-day cycle. The same master schedule also calls for all grade levels to have one 20-minute lunch recess and another 20-minute recess some time each day.

I have a feeling that most people complaining about the parks, especially parents of children in sports, have not even thought about what is keeping that turf/grass green, weed-free and beautiful. I am finding an era in our lives where people want to be healthier and practice a greener way of life, but they need it to be made simple for them as our lives are so busy and complicated these days. We need to give them the information and their choices. If they dont know they have a choice, how can than make a decision? I am not saying by any means to let our parks go. Im just saying lets find a better solution - a healthy compromise. I support the idea of volunteerism to help control the evasive weed problem.

Let teachers know that they are valuable

It takes several qualities to be an effective teacher; patience, love, kindness, passion, care, and experience, just to name a few. According to a recent survey conducted by early childhood/ special education students (from the University of WisconsinWhitewater), including two residents of Stoughton, these features are among the top values looked for in early childhood teachers. Even though several of these attributes are present in early childhood educators, most teachers feel unappreciated. Teachers feel that people view the roles of educators as an insignificant profession, according to many teachers interviewed. In addition, some teachers feel they are undervalued because society believes they are not effective in their profession. However, through the anonymous survey, teachers were in fact, proven wrong. When the question, Do you value teachers/educators? was asked, 62 percent answered a tremendous amount and 30 percent said quite a bit. The fact is, teachers are valued, according to the public. So, teachers, throughout your lesson plan writing, meeting of curriculum and standards, assessments, and with Teacher Appreciation Week (May 6-10) coming upon us, look at the facts-you are valued and appreciated!

Mayor Donna Olson recognized the citys Volunteer of the Year (Glenn McNaughton), Business of the Year (Cummins, Inc.), and Friends of Youth award winners (James Carroll Edgington and Malik J. Mitchell) at an open house earlier this month.
Citizens honored at mayors open house

Several locals were honored for their contributions to the community at an open house April 9. Mayor Donna Olson presented this years Volunteer of the Year, Business of the Year, and Friends of Youth with plaques and city proclamations thanking them for their outstanding contributions to the Stoughton community. Their names are also engraved on plaques that remain on permanent display in the mayors office. The 2013 Volunteer of the Year is Glenn McNaughton, who started the Stoughton High School Key Club in 2007. McNaughton serves as the Key Clubs adviser and tirelessly volunteers his time to teach and encourage high school students to be volunteers themselves.

Volunteers from Cummins are helping create the Reuse/Reduce/Recycle Sustainable Treecycle program; they have also been instrumental in setting up the Stoughton High School FabLab. There are two Friends of Youth this year, James Carroll Edgington and Malik J. Mitchell. The two ninth-graders are leading by example at the Stoughton Area Youth Center, showing younger children how to be a constructive part of the Youth Center and of the community. The city accepts nominations from citizens for each award, and a committee meets to select the honorees. The committee was delighted this year by how many nominations were received. The Mayors Open House honors all nominees and all the volunteers and business owners in Stoughton who provide time, money, and materials to make the community stronger.

Thought for the week

The philosopher who composed Ecclesiastes advises us Do not be over righteous, neither be over wise, why destroy yourself? (Ecclesiastes 7:16) Accusing others of wrongdoing, especially when there is any chance that we might be mistaken, is almost always folly, and we are likely to have the lens of criticism focused on us as a result. But, there are times when it is appropriate to be assertive in calling someone out. When someone is mistreating us our moral alarm bells are usually loud and clear and we should speak up about it. It may take courage to do so, but it usually prevents a lot of future mistreatment. Its even more important to stand up to bullies and haters when they are picking on someone who is weaker or too timid to stand up for him or herself. Students at Ohio State University and the University of Nebraska recently created web sites intended to call out people who posted racist, sexist, or otherwise hateful comments on Twitter and other social media web sites. Courage is central to the moral life because it requires courage to speak up for what is right. But, we should remember also to be circumspect about our criticism. It is often easier to see the speck of dust in your neighbors eye than the log in your own. Stop judging by mere appearances, and make a right judgment. John 7:24

Mandt: Opens Sunday

Continued from page 1 at the citys popular park. Billed as part flea market, garage sale, craft show, art show, farmers market and antique show, Mandt Marketplace will be open the second and fourth Sunday of each month through the end of September. Its just kind of everything wrapped up into one event, organizer Sherry Johnson told the Hub. Half of the 50 vendors signed up for Sundays show have signed for the whole year, Johnson said. Sundays marketplace will also have a free kids tent and a fundraiser for Pets for Vets, a program that pairs shelter pets with military veterans. Johnson said she has been working on Mandt Marketplace for nine months. Johnson has traveled to similar shows outside the area to sell jewelry. Many Stoughton artists do the same. She figured, why not offer a local event that rolls everything together and also invites artists and people from outside the area? I just thought it would be a good way to promote Mandt Park and promote Stoughton, she said. Visitors will have their choice of food, arts and crafts, collectibles and antiques booths. Johnson said she has promoted the event with posters around town, social media and information in publications like the Hub and Madisons The Isthmus. Ive got a lot of excitement building, she said of the marketplace, which will take place in the area of the park where Coffee Break vendors are usually located, near the parking lot. The marketplace has space for a total of 107 12-by-12-foot stalls and is always looking for vendors, Johnson said. I think next year will be even bigger, she said of the event.

Nazareth Health and Rehabilitation Center is in the midst of a makeover. The skilled nursing and rehabilitative service facility at 814 Jackson St. began about $1 million worth of renovations in October and plans to have that work wrapped up in June, said Jennifer Johnson, Nazareth administrator. The centers patient rooms, dining areas, common areas, bathrooms and showers are all to be renovated with new paint, carpeting, tile and lighting. So far its been going real good, Johnson said Monday. Nazareth started the remodel last year largely because the facility just needed some upgrading. Johnson could not say whether this is the first time Nazareth, which started in the 1960s, has undergone such work. If its not the first time, it has been a long time since the last one, she said. The center has a total of 99 patient beds, a mix of private and semi-private rooms, Johnson said. Both patients and visitors soon will also be able to enjoy a new bistro that Nazareth will be adding to

its ground floor. That bistro, which will feature a patio seating area and its own entrance, should be complete in June or July, Johnson said. It also will be open to the general public. (Its) just another feature to add for our patients, family and staff, Johnson said. Nazareth, according to its website, offers services for either short-term recovery or long-term care. It also offers specialty care for those with memory loss, whether from Alzheimers
or another memory-related illness. Previously known as Nazareth House, the center was originally started and run by the Congregation of the Sisters of Nazareth until August 2006. It was sold to Minnesota-based Health Dimensions Group, Inc., a healthcare management and consulting company that still manages Nazareth and other facilities. The facility was also renamed to Nazareth Health and Rehabilitation Center.

Bradford led the Vikings to a 19-23-4 record over that time, including a 10-12-2 campaign chock full of obstacles last winter. The Vikings racked up six game disqualifications: three bars teams from the WIAA postseason. Its with great regret and sadness that I am resigning from my position as boys hockey coach, Bradford said in an email to families and supporters on the teams website following a meeting to break the news to his players. Though he said it has been an
honor and privilege to coach the varsity hockey team, Bradford went on to say, unfortunately my commitment to the University of Wisconsin-Madison and the PhD program Ive begun is ultimately my familys first priority. Due to an increase in grant funding and increased job responsibility over the next few years, Bradford said he would no longer be able to commit the same amount of time that he had in the past to do the job the players require and deserve. It has been an incredibly agonizing time having to come to this realization and my sentimental commitment to the program and our players will never cease, he added. Twenty-nine at the time of his
hiring, Stoughton was Bradfords first head coaching job. He was an assistant under Dave Kinsler at Monona Grove for the past three seasons. With my background in athletics, you dont assume anything is permanent, said Stoughton Athletic Director Mel Dow, who received Bradfords letter of resignation two weeks ago. Personally, I dont hold it against any coach whatsoever wanting to advance themselves personally or professionally. In regards to Chris, I looked at him as the same as everyone else Im going to hire him and try to make this environment the best it possible can for our program to move forward. Dow went on to say, we hire everyone with the hopes that they
stay for a long time. There were hopes because he was a great person, Dow said. He took on some very difficult battles with the financial aspects and discipline aspects and did an outstanding job with our program. Rumors began to fly nearly as soon as Bradford announced that he was leaving. I put out that we have a position available, Dow said. I can answer questions of those that are interested, but I cant openly recruit. The application process is through the districts HR department, just like every position. Dow added that with any vacancy, he wants as deep and
After four years as the Stoughton boys swimming coach and six seasons with the Vikings swimming women, Elise McLaury decided earlier this month to step down from one of those positions. C o a c h i n g McLaury in back-to-back seasons is tough, and Im at a point in my life that my family comes first, McLaury said. My oldest will be a freshman next year, and I want to make sure that I can be at his sporting events. McLaury will remain involved with the Vikings swim program as the girls head coach and added that she will still be around to help and hopefully make it to a few boys meets. She began coaching the girls in 2000 and was an assistant for four years prior. I felt it was good timing, going out with the senior group of boys I started with four years ago, she said. We have gotten the program to where I feel that the team has a solid base of dedicated swimmers and will continue to succeed. This past season saw senior 100-yard butterflier Bryce Carmichael become the first Viking to reach back-to-back WIAA boys state swimming meets in more than 17 years and where he nearly became the first Viking to medal since John Greene and Chad Dean in 1994. Stoughton also qualified its first boys relay (200 medley) team to the state meet. Its a long way from where the program was when McLaury inherited it, seeing only 10 guys finish the season. Last winter, the Vikings had 35 swimmers on its roster. Im definitely a believer that theres strength in numbers, Stoughton Athletic Director Mel Dow said. Thats something

Girls pick up nine top three finishes, boys grab four second places

Assistant sports editor
The Stoughton boys and girls track teams traveled to Portage High School to make-up the Badger Challenge Monday. The meet was originally scheduled for April 9. The girls finished second overall with 108 points on the strength of nine top three finishes. Girls head coach Eric Benedict said the girls were happy to finally have a night to compete with good temperatures and
weather conditions. We had some athletes start to turn the corner a bit, he said. I am really ecstatic how a few individuals performed against some very good competition, and I am looking forward to the next couple of weeks and seeing what will happen with our team. Junior Maren Schultz was first in the high jump (4 feet, 10 inches), while sophomore Hannah Posick took first in the pole vault (9-6). Sophomore Hannah
Sonsalla finished second in the 300-meter low hurdles (49.54 seconds), while senior Haley Houser was second in the discus (109-9). The 4x800 relay team also took second. Junior Ashley Harnack, sophomore Nikki Staffen, junior Katherine Rude and senior Devan Montgomery finished in 10:26.86. Sophomore Megan Reese was third in the triple jump (31-8 1/2), while freshman Maren Gryttenholm was third in the 400-meter dash (1:03.36).
Staffen added a thirdplace finish in the 800 (2:26.21) and the 4x2 relay team took third in 1:57.06. Wausau West won the meet with 191.5 points. On the boys side, the Vikings collected four second places. Senior Jalen Clark (100), sophomore John McCune (800), the 4x2 relay and junior Luke Logan (high jump) all were a spot shy of first. Clark finished the 100 in 11.86, while McCune was runner-up in the 800 in
2:05.17. McCune shed two more seconds off his personal best. Logan reached the highest height at 6-2 but needed one more jump than Sauk Prairies Kyle McConville. The 4x2 team of Clark, sophomore Jacob Eugster, junior Josh Hitchcock and Logan finished second in 1:35.68. This was the first time that we were able to throw Jalen into a couple of events. If we had cleaned up our exchange a little
better, we would have won, boys head coach Nate Nelson said. The boys finished sixth with 59 points, while Waunakee won the meet with 135. The boys and girls continue the season at 4 p.m. Friday at the Fort Atkinson Invitational and travel to Monona Grove at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday for a Badger South dual. The Stoughton Invitational is at 4:30 p.m. Friday, May 3.

Vikings finish 2-2 at East tournament

Seniors John Evans (right) and Justin Shaffer celebrate match-point Friday at Quann Park as Verona senior Elliot Schad walks off the court at No. 1 doubles. Evans and Shaffer are 3-0 this season, while Stoughton finished 2-2 over the weekend at East Side Invite.
The Vikings played through an April snowstorm, a high temperature of 35 degrees, 20 mph winds and a test of Madison tornado sirens all in one match at last weekends East Side Invite. Hosted by Madison East High School, Stoughton finished 2-2 overall, including a 6-1 loss to Verona, which saw players hitting in weather more typical of a fall football game. It was not ideal tennis conditions, but it was great to get some matches in, Stoughton head coach Ryan Reischel said. The Vikings thawed out quickly before adding a 4-3 win over Oconomowoc later Friday and receiving a 5-2 drubbing of Madison East on Saturday morning. Seniors John Evans and Bubba Shaffer led the way Friday, going 2-0. Evans and Shaffer rolled past Veronas Elliot Shad and Nolan Fink 6-3, 6-2 before pulling out a much closer match against Oconomowoc in three sets, 3-6, 6-1, 11-9. Now 3-0 on the season, Shaffer went it alone on Saturday with Evans out sick. Despite moving up Stoughton 4, Sun Prairie 3 to No. 3 singles, Shaffer didnt drop Stoughton managed to make-up a match, going 2-0, beating East its April 11 non-conference dual at and La Follette, 6-4, 6-2. Sun Prairie on Monday, holding off
Elijah Thunell, who is 3-2 on the young season, went 2-2 at No. 2 singles with what Reischel called a really nice 6-2, 6-1 win against Oconomowoc. Elijah played very aggressively, but didnt overhit his shots, Reischel said. Thunell added a much closer win against East, taking his match 7-6 (7), 6-4. The East player was very solid and didnt make any mistakes, Reischel said. That match was a closer, but Elijah continued his fine play. Stoughtons Manny Calzada and Austin Scheel played a very good match against Oconomowoc at No. 2 doubles, but lost in a third set tiebreaker, 4-6, 6-4, 8-10. On Saturday, they moved up to 1 doubles with Evans out sick and lost to East 6-4, 2-6, 5-10 in a third set tiebreaker. However, they came back and beat LaFollettes No. 1 team 4-6, 6-4, 10-5, that was a very nice win for them, Reischel said. The Vikings closed out the tournament with a 5-2 loss to Madison La Follette.
the Cardinals for a 4-3 non-conference victory. Matthew Gharrity and Thunell capped the win with three-set gems at No. 3 and 2 singles. Gharrity played a solid first and second set to take his match 6-2, 3-6, 6-2 at 3 singles, while Thunell held on 4-6, 6-4, 7-6 (7) at No. 2 singles. Evans and Shaffer breezed through another No. 1 doubles match 6-0, 6-1, while Calzada and Scheel helped close out the victory with a 7-6 (3), 6-4 victory at No. 2 doubles. Nathan Lawlor and Breckin Houser dropped a hard fought three setter 4-6, 6-1, 7-5 at No. 3 doubles. Stoughtons JV prevailed 7-1. The Vikings travel to Portage for a 4:15 p.m. dual on Thursday before hosting the Stoughton Quad beginnig at 1 p.m. on Friday against La Crosse Logan, McFarland and Sun Prairie.
Defense was not one of the strong points for the Stoughton baseball team last Friday and Saturday. Against Madison East Friday, an error in the sixth inning led to three unearned runs in a 7-6 loss. The next day, Stoughton committed six errors in a 13-3 loss to Milton in five innings. Despite weather being a factor in getting teams ready this season, with the first outside practice Monday and six games postponed, head coach Jeremy Dunnihoo said that is no excuse for the high amount of errors. I have seen other teams that havent practiced outside either and seem to be performing just fine, he said. I think right now, it is more of a lack of confidence than the weather affecting our play. Dunnihoo said that the Vikings need to take a step back in order to build some momentum. I think early in the season, we got too caught up with the potential of the team of where they could go, and we kind of took for granted the day-today of the high school season, he said. I think we need to go back to one day at a time and taking baby steps to get back to our end of the season goals. Besides defense, clutch hitting has been so-so this season. There was the walk-off win April 16 against Oregon, but the Vikings left the bases loaded in the seventh inning against Madison East.
But there are a few positives, one being the strikeout numbers by the pitchers. Stoughton struck out 10 Purgolders Friday and added seven against Milton. So if walks and errors can be kept down, Dunnihoo likes the Vikings chances later in the season. We feel if we can ... not make our pitchers feel like they have to get four or five outs an inning just to get out of it, that will help us out a lot, he said. Stoughton continues the season at 5 p.m. Thursday against Monona Grove and at 5 p.m. Friday against Madison La Follette. It then hosts Fort Atkinson at 3:30 p.m. Monday and travels to Milton at 5 p.m. Tuesday.
Madison East 7, Stoughton 6
The Vikings took a 5-3 lead into the top of the sixth Friday, but two walks and an error led to three unearned runs. Junior P.J. Rosowski had an RBI single in the seventh, but Stoughton left the bases loaded when senior Ben Gerber grounded out to the pitcher. Rosowski also hit a 3-run double in the second. Seniors Dane Schultz and Tony Volk added RBIs. Junior Braden Poirer took the loss. He went 2 1/3 innings and allowed one earned run on five hits. He walked three and struck out three. Sophomore Alex Zacharias started the game. He

Eighth graders win D2 state invitational

The Stoughton eighthgrade girls basketball team wrapped up the season by winning the Division 2 Wisconsin State Invitational Championship Tournament in Wausau last weekend. The girls defeated Pewaukee 29-25 in the final for the victory. The title game played out like a chess match, with both teams struggling to score easily. Stoughton rallied in the fourth quarter to take a late lead that proved to be just enough. Stoughton finished the two day tournament with a 6-1 record only losing to the 2012 champion Waupan in pool play. As a No. 3 seed, moving into the sweet 16, the girls reeled off decisive wins against Plymouth, Pulaski and Monona Grove to reach the finals. Pewaukee made the championship

We may have some teaching positions come open here in the district, if we can tie it in it is beneficial to have someone on your staff be a coach. It doesnt exclude anyone outside of the district in being a coach, though, as evidenced by Dow posting the vacancy on wisconsinprephockey. com. I cherish, and plan to continue, the relationships that I have built within the Stoughton community, with our staff, and most importantly our former and current players, Bradford said. I wish them all the best and am committed to assisting in the transition and future of this program in any way Im physically able. Once a Viking, always a Viking. Both Stoughtons boys swimming and hockey positions will be posted (internally and externally) for two weeks. If the pool for each is big enough after that time, the interview process will begin shortly after. Well shake more trees if the candidacy pool isnt big enough, Dow said. Dow added that his hope is to have everything in place by mid-May to give coaches time to start making their plans and preparations. The right person is already planning for next year, Dow said. The right person is already planning on being a head coach next year someplace. Thats a trait you look for when youre interviewing somebody. They should be able to step right in.
McLaury: Remains girls head

swimming coach
Continued from page 9 Elise and I discussed back in my first year what are some of the adjustments we need to make for this program to make kids join and stick with it? The fruits of that labor were a relay team going to the state meet and having the depth to have varsity and JV competitors with nearly 25 underclassmen. Elise did an outstanding job getting our boys interested in swimming and sticking with it, Dow said. Were looking forward to them returning and the program and continuing to grow. McLaury was also instrumental in doing an intramural middle school program last year, exposing potential athletes to what competitive swimming is like. For those that dont know, coaching is beyond the 3-5 oclock practice and then competition once or twice a week, Dow said. Theres the personal phone calls, lineups, film study in some sports theres a lot of demands on a coach. Then you compound the job of being a full-time parent thats a challenge.

House: Restoration efforts started in 2008

Continued from page 1 Dave Kalland, president of the Stoughton Historical Society since 2002, estimated the Historical Society has put about $90,000 into the restoration, getting help from the estate of one of Luke Stoughtons descendants. We pretty much rebuilt the house, Hagen said. There wasnt a lot there that was salvageable. We had one beam in the dining room where you could actually see the hand-hewn ceiling joists. and when the Historical Society took ownership of the house, it needed a lot of work. It had been rented out for quite a few years and was in rough shape, Kalland remembered. I got upstairs and there were holes in the walls where squirrels had chewed through to the inside. launched the first phase of the restoration in 2008, and in February, the school board reversed its earlier position and granted the Historical Society a quitclaim deed so that the organization would own not only the house but also the land on which it sits. The school board checked into it, and as long as nobodys living in the house and we use it for educational purposes, they could deed it over to us, Kalland said. If something happens to the house, the land would have to be returned to the school district.

Getting help
Saving the house
Hagen believes that when Wisconsin became a state on May 29, 1848, Stoughtons first family had already settled into the historic home. At some point, the house was moved from Main Street to Fourth Street at the site where Jensons Furniture is now. The furniture store had been on Main Street, and in 1974 Jenson purchased the lot on Fourth Street and intended to raze the small house in order to build a new store. Thats when a group decided to form the Luke Stoughton Society, hoping to save the house. They raised close to $4,000 and got permission from the city to move the Luke Stoughton House to its current site at 315 N. Division St., across from the Yahara River and close to a viaduct and railroad tracks. At the time, both the city and the Historical Society thought the vacant lot on Division Street was owned by the city. The Luke Stoughton Society disbanded in 1999 and turned the house over to the Stoughton Historical Society. A couple of years later, the Historical Society discovered that the Division Street property was in fact owned by the Stoughton Area School District, not the city. Hagen said the house had been rented out as a residence for about 20 years, from the mid 1970s to the mid 1990s. It gradually fell into a state of disrepair,
In 2001, the school district agreed to give the Historical Society a 15-year lease for the Division Street property. That year, the society had new drywall installed throughout the house. In 2002, the society invested almost $19,000 to stabilize the structure and put nearly $8,000 into it the following year, according to Historical Society records. We started doing all this work and figured 15 years wasnt long enough it would probably take us that long to get the house done, Kalland recalled. So we went back to the school board in 2003 and asked them if they could in some way deed the land to us or sell it. The school district said no, but in 2004 it extended the land lease to 30 years. The effort got a boost in 2007, when Luke Stoughtons great grandson, Stoughton native Orren Turner, died in California and his adult children came to visit the city. They toured the house, and at that point, they informed the Society that Orren Turner left $100,000 in his will for us if we could match it, Kalland explained. The will gave them a year from Turners passing, according to the societys web site, which Kalland said left about six or seven months. The family agreed to allow the land value to count. That helped a lot, Kalland said. Then we petitioned the community for funds and we actually matched the $100,000, Hagen added. The Historical Society
The renovation
Sphatt
Few people know the house as intimately as Kalland, whos spent countless hours working to restore the citys first home. I gutted out the upstairs, and it was so bad structurally that I decided to gut the whole thing, Kalland said. Everything has been reinforced and is structurally sound now. The four rooms downstairs are almost done, with only some painting and the installation of kitchen and bathroom fixtures yet to do. Kalland said theres also some work needed upstairs, but that part of the house will not be open to the public. We dont want people going up and down those narrow steps, he said. Some of the major improvements to the house include a rebuilt roof, reinforced floor joists in the basement, new windows, exterior repair and paint. The society also put up new particle board and insulated the house. They also had the homes balloon construction structure retied. Hagen and Kalland say the house will be used as a museum annex. At this time we think
Florence Ann Sphatt (Gillig) passed away at Emeritus Senior Living in Denver, Colo. on Sun., April 7, 2013. She was 94 years old. Florence was born on the family farm in Omro on Aug. 31, 1918. She grew up with all the benefits of fresh air, sunshine and hard work. She is predeceased by her mother and father, Jacob and Lillian Gillig, sisters Marie Marsh, and Ruth Nordgren and brother Carl Gillig. She attended Oshkosh State Teachers College and earned a teaching certificate. For several years she taught grades K 8 in a one-room schoolhouse in Omro. On May 6, 1939 Florence married John F. Sphatt of Oshkosh. John was drafted into service during WW II and served in the Army in the South Pacific, rising to the rank of Master Sargent. Florence moved to Chicago and worked in a munitions factory for the duration of the war. In 1945 the couple returned to Oshkosh where
John resumed his position at the First National Bank of Oshkosh. They had three children: Sandra (George) Ochs of Thousand Oaks, CA, Penny (Dave) Simms of Cape Coral, Fla. and John M. (Melissa) Sphatt of Centennial, Colo. She has four grandchildren, Adam Ochs (Susie) and John Ochs, both of Thousand Oaks, Calif., Jacob Sphatt and Hannah Sphatt, both college students. She had one great-grandchild, Sawyer George Ochs, born March 5, 2013. John accepted the position as president of the First National Bank in Stoughton in 1960, retiring in 1992. The family moved to Stoughton in 1960. Florence was a member of the Gideons International Auxiliary for 71 years. John was a Gideon member for 65 years until his death on Feb. 7, 2005. Following retirement, the couple moved to Sun Lakes, Ariz.
