She spent one week at the University of Wisconsin- Oshkosh campus with 800 girls who also met the outstanding ex- pectations that must be achieved to earn the privilege to attend this conference. The delegates learned about different political views and government procedures while role-playing in a mock govern- ment system, where they could campaign vote for government positions. The newly-created state “Badger” was composed of all 800 delegates divided into cities and counties by floor in the dorms. For example, one floor was considered a city and two cities, or two floors, made up one county. Two political parties were created and the representa- tives chose either the National- ist Party or the Federalist Party. Every day, they were up at 6:30 a.m. and spent their days attend- ing meetings and amending the constitutions that the parties had put together. Also, the girls were encouraged to promote them- selves and their special character- istics to each other to get votes for certain positions. At the end of the week, all of the counties came together to vote for a governor; in order to do so, every represen- tative had to give a speech as to why they should be governor.

She developed multiple friendships and learned a lot about the government. She said this convention “put her in perspective” of how politics work in the Federal government and feels that what she has learned is very helpful information.

As both the village of Pulaski and Nsight celebrate 100-years of history, Nsight Telservices will be sponsoring a centennial history book as a special joint effort by the Village of Pulaski and The Pulaski Centennial Committee to commemorate the last century. The book will recap the past 100 years, major events, local busi- nesses and growth over the years. “It is exciting to be celebrating such a significant moment in our shared history. Pulaski’s history has intertwined with Nsight’s history since the very begin- ning as we began our journey just a month apart in 1910,” said Brighid Riordan, Public Affairs Director at Nsight. “This commu- nity has shaped the very essence of our company. We are proud to help make the centennial publica- tion possible, to detail a century of the people who have made this village special.” The book will be published in honor of Pulaski’s Centennial Celebration and will feature a timeline that chronicles many im- portant events in village history. Highlighted in the 52-page piece will be interviews with key in- dividuals whose life’s work has contributed to the strength, growth and texture of the community. “The Pulaski Centennial Committee, composed of busi- ness, village, school and histori- cal society members, aspired to publish an eye-catching and fun read that both conjures warm memories of the past and inspires all of us to nurture Pulaski and its people far into the future,” said Gina Sanders Larsen, who headed the research and writing of this project.

freshmen in the transition from middle school into high school, to make them all feel more welcome and accepted. The Crew strives to ensure that each and every fresh-man has a successful and reward-ing high school experience.
The group is made up of seventy senior and junior members interviewed and chosen because they had the qualities of a positive leader. The Crew members were split into groups of four or five during the summer and designated to a specific fresh-men homeroom. Each homeroom and its Raider Crew leaders will
Front Page/ Raider Crew meet about once a month where leaders will teach the freshmen various lessons about high school issues.
Raider Crew also strives to help freshmen excel in the social areas of high school, hosting events every month which pro-motes students to build positive connections with their peers. Raider Crew’s first social event was the freshmen tailgate party. This event preceded the football game of the Pulaski Red Raiders against the Bay Port Pirates.
Raider Crew is excited to have the opportunity to support and en-courage the new freshman class in any way it can.

On August 28, kids from all over the Pulaski school district, grades one through six, gathered behind the Pulaski High School for the annual Super Saturday camp to learn a bit about foot-ball. Many varsity players came to help out with the event, along with the majority of the Pulaski football coaching staff. The day was a great success; kids not only learned a lot of new skills, but also had a lot of fun.
“All of the kids, including my son, really look up to the varsity football players. The parents really appreciate the high school students and coaches who give up their Saturday to teach and play with the kids,” said Dan Bramschrieber, father of second grade student Bo Bramschrieber.

Traveling from Green Bay to St. Louis were the SJE Young Neighbors in Action.
Becca Polum, a senior at Pulaski High School, was one of 80 students who was able to travel to St. Louis to help make a differ-ence from June 20 to 26. She was one of two girls from her church that joined 14 other students to head down to the large group in St. Louis.
Young Neighbors in Action provides a solid, Catholic ap-proach to service and justice that balances scripture and Catholic social teaching, direct service, and a justice consciousness.

Polum and her teammates were very excited to begin their work in St. Louis. Their first three days were spent volunteering at the Cardinal Ritter Senior Center. Their activities included: weeding the garden, laying mulch, dis-posing of dead trees, installing a garden border, cleaning and sorting a large storage closet, painting a bathroom, installing a foundation for a fountain, and hauling out old furniture.
Polum said, “I was so proud of how much we helped. It was obvious that the Center lacked staff to get everything done.”

“Not only does the St. Pat-rick’s help the homeless acquire clothing and necessities, but also they help them start fresh by equipping them with life skills so that they will have a better chance obtaining a job,” said Polum.
Polum said that whenever she recalls the trip she begins to miss it terribly and wishes that she could somehow go back.
Reflecting on her experience, Polum said, “Without a doubt, Young Neighbors in Action should expect to see me for years to come!”

Olivia Schmidt, a junior at Pulaski High School, was crowned Miss Pulaski Polka Days of 2010. To have such an honor, Schmidt was required to write four different essays. The essays were about what would make her a good candidate, what she would do in the community, why she wanted to be Miss Polka Days, and dancing the polka.
Since Schmidt was six, she attended Pulaski Polka Days and always admired the Miss Pulaski Polka Days of each year. In addi-tion, Schmidt loves to polka and enjoys all the different activities. After Schmidt was crowned Miss Pulaski Polka Days, she endured various responsibilities. The two most important of these are repre-senting the Pulaski community at different festivals and doing com-

demolition in her free time. Stre-blow is a 16-year-old girl, junior, at Pulaski High School. On Sep-tember 6, at 1 pm, Streblow entered into the Shawano Fair Demolition Derby race as number 99b1/2.
Streblow’s demolition car was an 83 Cadillac Deville, full size. Her demolition car was sponsored by Arrow Auto, Streblow After Hours, and Broadway Demo Team.
“I’ve been watching my dad do demolition derbies for a long time, and I have wanted to do what he did,” said Streblow.
Following that, Streblow said, “You need to be 16-years-old, and it cost about $35 to enter.”
Streblow has stated that she has 10 people on her demolition team.
“This will be my first year, and I’m super excited but nervous at the same time. Hopefully, from watching my dad for many years, it will help me out in the demoli-tion,” said Streblow.
Streblow was put in heat one out of five other heats.

Vandalism is a major concern in Pulaski
Chief Dunford stands with Brett Janssen and Jack Fitzgerald next to the squad car.
By Brett Janssen and Jack Fitzgerald
Since January 2010, there have already been 26 reported cases of vandalism or theft in Pulaski. Vandalism is not taken lightly, it can be taken to criminal court and you can be charged with a misdemeanor or even a felony. Although Fall Fest is right around the corner, tradition is no excuse to vandalize or cause havoc in the community.
Chief Randall Dunford the police chief of Pulaski said, “There is no leniency when it comes to vandalism, it can be a serious crime.” The fine for simple toilet papering is $431. The punishment only goes up from there; you could face felony charges if the damage is serious.
Chief Dunford strongly sug-gested using Crime Stoppers as prevention against these crimes. Crime Stoppers is a service that keeps witnesses anonymous and pays cash if they report a crime that is solved. You can call Crime Stoppers at 434-STOP (7867) or report crimes online at www.greenbayarea.crimestoppersweb.

Mr. and Mrs. Jaworski are local victims of vandalism. Two lights were stolen along with two of their neighbor’s lights from their front yards. Also stolen were two expensive birdfeeders from a neighbor’s property. “I enjoy putting up decorations for each holiday, but after these thefts I do not know if it’s worthwhile due to the risk of them being destroyed,” said Mrs. Jaworski.
Prevention of vandalism is painless. Chief Dunford said “Many people that see vandalism in their neighborhood are afraid to report it because they second guess themselves and are afraid that they won’t remain anony-mous.” Simply keep your prop-erty secured or indoors. Interact often with your neighbors and be involved in neighborhood watch. Motion lights help significantly to catch possible vandals in the act. If you see anything suspi-cious don’t be afraid to report it to Crime Stoppers, or your local police station.

Pulaski Police Department joins cause to protect childrenSubmitted by J.B. Van Hollen,
Attorney GeneralThe Pulaski Police Depart-
ment has joined the Wisconsin Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force.
“We are pleased to have you as a member of the Wisconsin ICAC Task Force and pledge our full support to you as we work togeth-er to make Wisconsin safer for our children,” said Wisconsin At-torney General J.B. Van Hollen.
As part of this affiliation, the Pulaski Police Department is eli-gible for:
Reimbursement to help fund ICAC related expenses, including computer hardware and software;
Notification of and priority for sought-after ICAC related train-ing, offered both nationally and in Wisconsin;
Investigative assistance from highly trained ICAC investigators and forensic computer analysts throughout the state;
Access to the national ICAC email group;
Recognition on both the Pulaski Police Department’s website, and on the Wisconsin Department of Justice website.
“Pulaski Police Depart-ment is committed to doing ev-erything we can to protect our children and seek out predators who desire to take advantage of them,” said Police Chief Randal Dunford. “We are grateful to be able to partner with the Wiscon-
sin Department of Justice and the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force to fight this growing problem. By law enforcement working together in this collab-orative effort, we will send a clear message that the internet is not a fishing well for sexual predators. We will do everything within our power to bring them to justice. By working together we will do a better job of educating our com-munity on the dangers of the in-ternet, as well as arrest those who use it to commit crimes against children.”
To learn more about the ICAC Task Force program at the Pulaski Police Department, contact Chief Dunford at (920) 822-4090.
This year marks the 11th an-niversary of the founding of the Wisconsin Department of Justice Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
“In the past decade, Wiscon-sin’s ICAC Task Force and Af-filiate Agencies have arrested 728 suspects, executed 1,017 search warrants, and rescued countless numbers of children throughout the state,” said Van Hollen.
According to Van Hollen, there are over 22,304 internet pro-tocol addresses in Wisconsin con-taining and offering to distribute known images of child pornog-raphy. One in seven children are asked online to engage in sexual activities, sexual talk, or provide
personal sexual information.Van Hollen has placed a pri-
ority on law enforcement’s pro-active response to the growing problem of internet crimes against children. To that end, Van Hollen has directed a 67 percent increase in the number of special agents assigned to the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force within the Division of Criminal Investigation.
In addition to expanding in-vestigative capacity internally, Van Hollen and the Department of Justice have continued to add additional local affiliates to the Wisconsin ICAC Task Force. The number of local law enforce-ment partners to the Department of Justice’s ICAC Task Force has increased by more than five times to 157 since Attorney General Van Hollen took office. You can access a list of affiliates at http://www.doj.state.wi.us/dci/icac/afflist.asp.
“Let internet predators take note. Our commitment is unceas-ing. We will identify you, arrest you, and take you off the street; we will follow you to every area of the internet, no matter where you try to hide; and we will work together in law enforcement to stay one step ahead of you,” said Van Hollen.

According to Titler, these cell phones allow every student to par-ticipate in the same way, which is more engaging.
I am very thankful for Cellcom donating the cell phones to support and benefit the classroom in the 21st century,” said Titler.

The children of Assumption B.V.M. Catholic School were greet-ed with a new statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary when they returned to school on September 1. Fr. Patrick Gawrylewski, O.F.M., priest of Assumption B.V.M. and St. Stanislaus Parishes, and Deacon Dennis Majewski dedicated and blessed the stat-ue for the students. Thanks go out to all the students, their fami-lies, and many parishioners who helped us fund this project by collecting nearly 80,000 box tops and milk caps. The children were very surprised that the nickels and dimes they collected through their box tops and milk caps really do add up.

Sporting events available on television
By Eman Jazayeri, Cody Klaus, Mike Kuss, and Brett
RadeckiStudents in Randy Fondow’s
video production class tape home contests for football, volleyball, and soccer games.
“We started teaching video production in class in 1988 and it blossomed into a different type of project,” said Fondow.
Students really enjoy taping the sporting events during school and after hours.
Some kids are not involved in sports, so they work with the equipment. The technol-ogy doesn’t always work, so the kids work together and problem solve,” said Fondow.
The videos of the games are running on digital channel 2 or on analog channel 46. The games are rotated every two days and will play at 3 a.m., 9:45 a.m., 4:30 p.m., and 11:15 p.m.
Fondow explained why stu-dents tape the various sport-ing events, “people wanted to see highlights, and some elders cannot get to sporting events.”
Students inspired Fondow to start taping sporting events and the program has since grown to:
“seven camera people for the first semester and may get even larger,” said Fondow.
Randy Fondow stands next to the camera his students use to film the sporting events.

By Brooke Lauritzen and Samantha Brabender The second grade class attend-
ing Assumption B.V.M. School is taught by Rose Wenzel. The stu-dents enjoy playing games within the Super Reader Estimating Me Bag. This helps them to learn about their greater than and less than mathematical signs. In this big bag, an estimation jar and a three clues game are found. Every Thursday one student is chosen to bring home the jar and put some-thing besides food in it. They have to know the exact amount so the rest of the students can esti-mate how much is in there when the jar is returned. Amelia Lara says, “It’s exciting and I can’t wait until Derek brings in the jar next week!”
2nd grade participates inactivities at Assumption B.V.M.
The other game the second graders played was called Three Clues. Wenzel says three clues to her students about objects found in the classroom, and they have to guess what it is. For example Wenzel said, “I use it when I make mistakes, it comes in a bottle, and I can pour it. What is it?” All of the students thought for awhile and their hands shot up. It is White Out of course!
After the Super Reader Es-timating Me Bag, Wenzel read Froggy Rides a Bike to her second graders. According to Lara, the Froggy book was her favorite part.
The second graders at As-sumption B.V.M. are also study-ing plants in science and write various things in their science journals.
Second graders use their white boards to estimate the quantity in the jar.

have made recycling simpler by uniting with Waste Management and Przybylski Waste Services to create a new recycling system called “Single Sort recycling.” The new recycling system will allow recyclables like papers, plastics, and aluminums to go in a single container together for recycling. This method of recy-cling is dependant on the staff, students, and guests within the Pulaski schools and, if successful, will decrease waste and aid in the effort for a more environmentally friendly world.
The acceptable recyclables for Single Sort Recycling bins include the following: most glass containers, most plastic contain-ers, empty square paint contain-ers, cosmetic bottles, boxes, most papers, aluminum cans, metal cans, jars, milk jugs, and more. Some things that can not go in the bins are plastic bags, tissue paper, window glass, pesticides, bat-teries, phones, pans, Styrofoam containers, flower pots, drinking glasses, light bulbs, food, yogurt containers, or waste soiled with food or liquid. Food or food-soiled waste put into the Single Sort recycling bins will cost the Pulaski Community Schools hundreds of dollars. The bottles labeled 3 and 7 are not allowed in the bins. Although these bottles make up a small amount of all plastic containers, if you do not know what bottle you have, see if the container has a threaded neck, which is okay to recycle in the Single Sort bin.
The Pulaski Community School District is making strides to create more environmentally friendly schools. Single Sort Re-cycling is a great step to reach that goal but requires teamwork and effort from all people associ-ated to make it work. Take pride in your community and school by making an effort to recycle re-sponsibly.

By Cassie Zahn Every year, high school stu-
dents all over the country par-ticipate in standardized testing such as the ACT. For some, it is a daunting task that requires hours of studying and prep work. For others, it is simply one Saturday morning that they have to spend in a desk. Despite the different views students have on how to go about preparing for the ACT, there is always high competition to receive commendable scores.
This year, Pulaski students produced scores that would make commendable sound like an un-derstatement. Overall, Pulaski had an average composite score of 24.0. The averages for the four sub scores were as follows: Reading: 24.0; English: 23.0; Math: 24.9; and Science: 23.6. These scores were comparatively higher than many high schools across the state and the highest scores in the FRCC conference. Pulaski ranked third out of forty schools in our area, finishing behind Kohler and Gibraltar who had composite scores of 24.8 and 24.1, respectively. Out of the 74 high schools in Wisconsin that have an enrollment of 1200 or more, Pulaski came in 10th place for its average composite score. The schools in our area that were close to this rank were De Pere in 14th place, Green Bay South-west in 20th place, and Bay Port in 26th place. Out of all 462 public high schools in Wisconsin, Pulaski ranked 23rd.
“This score is the result of the dedication and hard work of our educators in our elemen-tary, middle, and high schools. Congratulations to all our educa-tors for the outstanding achieve-ment by our students!” said Dr. Mel Lightner, Superintendent of Schools.
Along with the hard work of the students and teachers, Pulaski can also attribute its high ACT scores to offering more AP and college credit courses, and conducting ACT Prep classes. Pulaski surpassed its average composite score for 2009, which was 23.8, and the school hopes for even better results next year.
Dr. Mel Lightner responded, “Let’s keep going upward!”

On June 6, a great friend, student, co-worker, and good person, Brent Rosner, was lost. Brent had just started his dream job welding at J.R.’s welding in Pulaski. One of Brent’s favorite things to do was weld, so this was the perfect job for him.
When Brent passed away, many students and teachers were very heartbroken. Brent’s family decide to give back to the school and donated four new auto-dark-ening welding helmets for the metals classes at Pulaski.
Brent’s dad, Jeff Rosner, said, “It was nice to give back to the school because of all the support the community gave us, and the Leo Club helping out at the funeral was a huge help to us.”
Brent’s twin brother, Branden Rosner, was all for giving the helmets to the school for students to use for the class.
Branden said, “The helmets will be a good thing to keep the memory of him in the school for
something he loved to do.” Tom Glinski had money saved
out of the budget for new welding helmets for this school year, but since they had four new ones donated, it saved the school a lot of money because they are not cheap.
Tom said, “I liked having Brent in class, he was a jokester but worked very hard at what he did and loved it.”
Even though we all lost a very good friend he will still be re-

Spaghetti dinners a traditionand the desserts for the team.
“Last year during one of the ‘Sketty dinners,’ coach had us all sing a song to the team. It was a fun experience to hear my team-mates sing,” said senior lineback-er Ben Thiem. Although they have yet to sing, they hope to do it again this year.

Football team not playing to potential
By Nevada Skenandore The Pulaski Red Raider foot-
ball team took on Sheboygan South in a conference showdown on September 3. The team was looking to advance to being 2-0, but came short losing a tough one 34-17. They played well but were outplayed by the Redwings as they took advantage of their passing game, putting up four touchdowns through the air. The Raiders offense put up 17 points with touchdowns on the ground by Derek Anderson and Jared Skinkis. Shane Reinhard also
contributed making a 33-yard field goal.
“The team played well, but just not up to its potential. We had too many turnovers and overall just didn’t bring it,” said senior-captain Race Noeldner.
The Red Raiders will take on Bay Port in a conference game on Friday, September 10. The Raid-er-Pirate game is a fan favorite as it is one of the biggest rivalries in the conference, and the Red Raiders look to pull out a big win making them 2-1(1-1).
Andrew Adamski (#64), is about to snap the football to quarter-back Race Noeldner during the recent Pulaski – BayPort game.

The girls varsity team took 15th. There was great weather at Colburn Park, the race site, which assisted all participating athletes. Most of the other teams partici-pating in the event are in the same conference as Pulaski, so it was a great opportunity for the Pulaski team to get to know their compe-tition.

By Nevada Skenandore On September 10, the foot-
ball team took on the Bay Port Pirates at home in one of the biggest rivalries of the season. The anticipation for this game is always huge. Pulaski started off strong putting up a touchdown on their first drive with a 32-yard pass from Race Noeldner to Brett Smith. The atmosphere was insane as it looked good for the Red Raiders early. Bay Port then utilized its running game putting up 21 unanswered points.
“Going into halftime down 7-21, we knew we would have
Red Raider Football going through a rough patch
to respond fast. We went through our game plan for the second half and had high hopes.” said Shane Reinhard.
It looked good as Pulaski put up another seven points with a seven-yard run from Noeldner, but from there it just went down-hill for the Raiders letting up 20 more points. Pulaski’s second team offense put up 7 points with a run by Zach Wech but in the end, fell to the Pirates 41-21.
Next week the Red Raiders take on Green Bay Southwest and must respond to a slow start if they look to contend for playoffs.

Just as we move winter cloth-ing back into closets in prepara-tion for cold weather, so should we prepare our homes to with-stand winter’s frosty bite.
Here’s a list of household items to check and tasks to do before the temperatures drop and the snow flies.
Doors. Two steps to stop gusty cold drafts. First, check to see if exterior doors close tightly: Do they sag? Do they rub their door frames? Are latch plates or hinges loose? If the answer is “yes” to any of these questions, spend some sweat equity to straighten the way your doors hang. Second, weather-strip, particularly if your built-in door weather stripping is worn out If you can’t find exact replacements, spring plastic strips, V-strips, or tubular gaskets make good alternatives.
Windows. While Jack Frost’s handiwork makes a lovely window scene, it’s a sure sign of trouble for your heating bill. Prevent frost from showing up at your windows this winter by stop-ping air leaks now.
Remove debris from window wells and add storm windows if you have them. Weather-strip and caulk older windows between window frames and along frame edges. If your windows are fairly new, simply caulk your frames. Even if you have storm windows, you should weatherstrip interior windows to prevent condensation.
In addition, consider adding clear plastic sheeting to the inside of older windows. Available in kits and easy to use, plastic sheets
Preparing home for winterstop cold air leaks--and may reduce your heating bills.
Roof and gutters. Don’t allow leaves and twigs to clutter your gutters, downspouts, and leaf strainers. When you rake your yard, be sure to take the extra time to clean these out.
And while you’re outside, you may want to check storm drains for debris.
Water pipes. Frozen or burst pipes are among a homeowner’s worst nightmares. Protect pipes in unheated areas from freezing by adding insulation, which reduces heat loss from hot-water pipes and condensation on cold water pipes.
Insulation can be as basic, and as inexpensive, as newspa-per bundled around the pipes and tied with string. But it’s better to wrap pipes with insulating tape or to encase pipes with preformed plastic foam. While tape tends to be less expensive than plastic foam, it’s more time-consum-ing to apply. Two other options include standard blanket insula-tion wrapped with duct tape or an insulating liquid, which can be messy.
If you’re extremely concerned that a particular pipe will freeze, wrap it with an electric heat cable, which prevents freezing even with icy temperatures of 20 degrees or more below zero. This option uses a good deal of elec-tricity and can be costly.
Fireplace. Before winter has you reaching for some seasoned logs, hire a chimney sweep to inspect your chimney flue and clean it if necessary. Make sure the flue’s seal is good--a drafty chimney is a wintertime no-no.
Heating system. Don’t let tem-peratures plunge before a profes-sional heating contractor inspects your oil-burning unit, heat pump, or radiator (annually) or your gas-fired or electric furnace (every two to three years). In addition, ask the inspector how you can best maintain your system year-round.
Water heater. Just because your water heater seems to work fine now doesn’t mean you should put off an annual inspection. Fall is a perfect time to have your tank’s pressure and temperature relief valve inspected.

“To succeed in life, you need three things: a wishbone, a backbone and a funnybone.”
~Reba McEntire
Daniel V. Przbylski Przybylski, 82, Pulaski died
peacefully morning, September 6, 2010, at a Green Bay hos-pital following a short illness. The son of the late John and Helen (Pytel) was born Sep-tember 16, 1927, in the Town of Angelica and farmed in the Town of Chase most of his life. As a young man he worked for Chicago and Northwestern Railroad. He also built silos and installed silo unloaders and barn cleaners. He also sold seed for many years. In his heyday, Danny belonged to several area dance
Ullmer, Elizabeth “Betty”
Elizabeth J. Ullmer, 85, Pulaski, passed away peacefully with family at her side on Sep-tember 7, 2010. Betty, as she was lovingly known, was born to
William Sr. and Hazel Vollmar on March 26, 1925, in Green Bay.
On October 24, 1944, she married her sweetheart, Ronald G. Ullmer, at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church in Howard. To-gether they lived a faith-filled life, raising their six wonderful chil-dren. As pillars of the commu-nity, the couple balanced family and service, always going above and beyond to help grow their community and church.
A grandmother to twenty-three and a great-grandmother to another fifty-three, she was always surrounded by those she loved most, her family. While always humble and avoiding the spotlight, Betty was the shining light who guided her family.
As devoted members of As-sumption B.V.M. Church in Pulaski, Betty and Ron could often be found supporting their parish community. From church auctions to the produce stand, Christian Mothers (now Council of Catholic Women) to Sunday Mass, Betty offered her time and talents in any way she could. She was also a member of the Ameri-can Legion Auxiliary, Unit #337, Pulaski.
An avid baker, Betty could always be found busy in the kitchen. From her chocolate cup-cakes, well… anything chocolate, to her butterscotch torte, Betty always had a delicious snack on hand for her grandchildren. It is well known in her family that a party just wasn’t a party unless Grandma Betty’s potato chip dip and butterscotch torte were on hand!
Betty loved to knit and passed on her talent to several of her grandchildren. Each winter she was ready to clothe the little ones in scarves and mittens. In her later years, she attempted to make each great-granddaughter a little hat, which they will always trea-sure.
From 1963, when Ron and Betty open their first grocery store in Howard, to her final days as a proud customer, Betty took great pride in what she and Ron had ac-complished and the legacy that they left for their family. From the days when Betty ran the cash register while still making sure that supper was on the table and homework was completed, to the day she became our angel in heaven, she wore many hats. She certainly put the “Super” in Super Ron’s!
Survivors include her chil-dren, Kristine (Francis) Ullmer, John Ullmer, Charles Ullmer, David Ullmer, and Virginia (Larry) Westenberg; her grand-children, Paul (Kathy) Ullmer, Lisa (Greg) Stachura, Mark

Bayport varsity football game donated to the Brown County Crime Prevention Fund upon en-trance to the game. The game was played on September 10 in Pulaski. Fans placed money in either a Bayport milk can or Pulaski milk can.
The schools conducted dona-tion campaigns throughout the week at the respective schools. As an extra incentive to donate to the Crime Prevention Fund, the Athletic Directors at each school, Jerad Marsh, Pulaski, and Otis Chambers, Bayport, have agreed to wear an opposing school’s shirt for a day if their school raises less money per student.
The Brown County Crime Prevention Foundation benefits a number of programs in the county, including DARE, Neigh-borhood Watch and Teen Court.
Fans were also encouraged to attend the tailgate party prior to the game. Food was served.

Pendleton is “Made”
Sharon Pendleton competes with the state champion Pulaski rugby team.
By Melanie MorganLast school year, MTV’s hit
show “Made” came to schools in Northeast Wisconsin, including Pulaski High School, looking for one student with a goal he or she wanted help accomplishing. After going through thousands of high school students’ tryout forms, the casting crew found a girl that had caught their eye: Pulaski High School student Sharon Pendleton. Pendleton’s a high maintenance girl that has a love for make-up and pampering. At the time, Pendleton was a freshman that had a dream of becoming a rugby player for Pulaski’s state winning team. Many were wondering why such a girly-girl would want to play such a difficult sport on an all boys team.
