As addiction has gone from commu-nity problem to epidemic, a dedicatedgroup of individuals refuses to sit idleand do nothing.
Hundreds of such people will comeout to the Eisenbahn Trail in West Bendon Saturday, July 27 to participate inElevate’s 10th annual Under theInfluence of Adrenaline Race Series.
With the mission of “building strongcommunities by addressing the rootcauses of high-risk behaviors throughprevention, intervention and residentialprograms focusing on drug and alcoholissues, mental health and delinquency,”the Jackson-located agency has held thisfund-raising race for the past nine yearsto fight a tragic trend ravaging familieseverywhere.
“We hold this event to support ourmission,” said Julie Wolf, Elevate’s asso-ciate director, in a phone interview withthe Express News. “This is one of ourmajor fundraisers of the year and itdraws a lot of people.”
Featuring a full marathon, half-marathon, 10K and 5K, the race day willkick off with a start time of either 6 or7 a.m. for the full or half marathon,depending on personal preference. The10K and 5K races will begin at 7:15 a.m.
Absent for a year, the marathonoption has returned thanks to populardemand, said Wolf.
“We added back the full marathonand it is a USATF Boston qualifier,” shesaid. “The marathon will go along thetrail from West Bend to Campbellsportand back.”
As a special aspect of the event,there will be a “Memory Mile” on whichsigns participants made in honor ofloved ones lost to addiction or in recov-ery. Peer specialists, part of a new pro-gram offered by Elevate, will be facilitat-ing in this portion of the race.
“There are a lot of great stories outthere and people run for many reasons,”said Wolf. “They are out there sharingthe message that there is hope for recov-ery.”
Also new this year, Elevate is part-nering with the Volunteer Center ofWashington County which will take theirDo Good bus out of the route and deliv-er refreshments to volunteers along theway and cheer on the runners.
When participants finish theirrespective race, they can enjoy a varietyof food from local restaurants and musicat the end, and if interested, even headover to Chalk Fest at the Museum of
Wisconsin Art in downtown West Bend.“They can make a day of it,” said
Wolf. “It’s a great time.”Prices are currently $30 for the 5K, $40
for the 10K, $50 for the half marathon and$60 for the marathon and will increase inJuly; however, participants can run forfree if they raise $100. Each person willreceive a T-shirt and every finisher gets amedal. Those who do not want to run butwould like to contribute can donatethrough the race website.

401 students graduatefrom Hamilton
Hamliton students and a distinguished alumnusoffered words of wisdom and encouragement during theschool's graduation ceremony on June 15.
Class of 2019 President Joshua Pfeffer led fellowstudents in reciting the Pledge of Allegiance. StudentCouncil President Mikayla Cup asked students to imag-ine themselves as freshman students again.
"Think back to the first day: Who did you think youwould be as a senior? Did you think you would havefriends? Did you think you would have a job and thatyour parents would be proud of you? Did you think youwould suffer from senior-itis?" Cup asked. "Whateveryour answers would be, it is time for us to move on tothe next step and reflect on these past four years of ourlives."
Cup described the class of 2019 as "strong-willed,kind and intelligent."
Class of 2019 Vice-President Joseph Lemen thenintroduced foreign exchange students KasmiraHeinonen and Celina Hoelzer. Hoelzer said she andHeinonen came to American to improve their languageskills, learn about a different culture and "start anadventure."Heinonen said that when considering whereto go as part of the exchange program, others wereseeking to spend their in Los Angeles, Seattle orWashington, DC. She said she decided "to keep an openmind and see where the experience would take me." Shesaid she had to do an Internet search for Wisconsinwhen she learned she would be attending school here.The photos she saw of the state were of cows andcheese.
"I found that there's much more than goes alongwith Wisconsin than dairy," Heinonen said. Hoelzer said
the first days at Hamilton were confusing with newclasses and teachers, and they had to adjust to newfamilies. Heinonen recalled pep rallies, school gamesand dances, and a "polar vortex." Heinonen and Hoelzerthanked their host families, teachers and the schoolresource officer.
Greg Barber, a 1975 Hamilton High School graduate,was the first Hamilton football player to receive a fullfootball scholarship to UW-Madison. As a certified pub-lic accountant after college, he built non-accountingand tax advisory services into his firm. He retired afterserving as an accountant for 39 years.
Barber congratulated the class of 2019 for getting tothis point in their lives.
"This is a big day for you and a time to reflect andcelebrate your accomplishments, just like it was for meand my classmates some 40 years ago -- yikes," Barbersaid.
Barber added it's not often a graduate returns to ahigh school after decades and sees it in a better state.
"For that I sincerely thank and congratulate you all,you make and so many other graduates proud," Barbersaid.
He added the day was about those in the studentslives who have made a difference for them. Barberrecalled his parents, siblings, wife, children, his besthigh school friend Craig Keller and teachers and coach-es that had an impact on his life. Barber asked retiredfootball coach Stan Grove to stand, and said Grove’s"caring yet stern demeanor had a huge impact on me.You showed me and so many more how to be a good stu-dent and good athlete and to do it with class."
Barber added that without Grove reaching out tocollege coaches and convincing them he could play atthe next level, Barber would not have had his experi-ence attending UW-Madison.
Barber advised students that "life is a marathon, not
a sprint. The journey is the award, not the destination.Embrace change in all walks of life, especially yourcareer."
Salutatorian Tiffany Pham said many students aresurrounded by classmates they've known for 12 years.Students have gone through the "Aeropostale" phase,silly bands, a snow and ice storm for Prom and last-min-utes papers. She also recalled the past year, when fam-ilies got calls five times in just over two weeksannouncing that school was closed due to weather con-ditions.
"We have grown together, we have struggled togeth-er, we have rejoiced together. With all of these experi-ences and everything we have learned here atHamilton, there is no doubt that this class can and willtake on just about anything that life throws at them,"Pham said.
Valedictorian Erin Niebler noted that the 401 stu-dents in the class of 2019 is the largest class to gradu-ate from Hamilton High School. She recalled a firealarm in January, homecoming weeks, and watchingstate tournament games for boys basketball, boys soc-cer and baseball.
"Our journeys through Hamilton were all unique,but one thing they each have in common is that theyare all ending with us being here today sharing thismoment together," Niebler said.
Niebler said Hamliton is not located on a map, butrather 'in the hearts of the 401 graduating seniors ofthe class of 2019. Hamilton will always be found insideof each and every one of us and we will carry all of ourshared experiences everywhere we go. Hamilton will becarried from coast to coast, continent to continent, andmaybe one day one of you will carry it to a place farbeyond this world."

Hamilton in top 100 schools for financial literacy
BY MELINDA MYERSA bit of grooming and care will keep your flower
gardens looking their best throughout the hot summermonths and into fall.
Remove the flower stems of salvias, veronicas andsimilar flowers as the blooms begin to fade. Use apruner or sharp garden scissors and cut just above thefirst set of leaves or above the side shoots where newflower buds are forming.
Cut back flopping perennials like Walker’s Low cat-mint, veronica and Salvia that have finished their sec-ond flush of flowers. New growth will be sturdier, morecompact and eventually covered with blooms.
Plants like daylilies and balloon flower require a bitdifferent care. Remove the individual blooms as theyfade for maximum beauty. Once all the individual flow-ers have bloomed out, you can cut the flower stem backat the base.
Keep coral bells tidy and many varieties bloominglonger with a bit of deadheading. Remove the wholeflower stem, once blooms fade, back to the leafy basewhere it arises from the plant. And cut a few flowers toenjoy indoors in a summer bouquet.
Remove faded flowers for a neater and tidier appear-ance, but no additional bloom, on peonies, lamb’s earand bergenia. Removing the seedpods of peonies asthey form, back to a healthy set of leaves, helps keepstems upright and makes for a tidier plant throughoutthe summer.
Deadheading won't extend the bloom for columbine,but it will prevent reseeding - if that’s a concern foryou. Prune the flowering stems back to their base in thefoliage.
Removing spent flowers on perennials like bee balm,purple coneflower, salvia, veronicas, garden phlox andmany others will encourage additional bloom. You maywant to skip deadheading of any late blooming vari-eties. This allows them to form seed pods for a bit ofwinter interest.
Pruning your flowers can also impact the appear-ance, size, and flowering of plants. Prune Russian sageand upright sedums, like Autumn Joy, subject to flop-ping back halfway in mid-June to encourage sturdygrowth. Pruning coneflowers and other late bloomingperennials once, early in the season, can result inshorter plants that flower a bit later. Pinch asters and
mums back to 6 inches throughout June and into earlyJuly in southern regions for compact plants and anattractive fall display.
Further improve your garden’s beauty by removingor trimming back discolored foliage with sharp scissorsor a hand pruner.
Stake taller perennials in need of a bit of support.Use bamboo stakes and ties, twigs woven into stems orother attractive or virtually invisible supports. Thenmake a note on next year’s calendar as a reminder toput stakes in place in spring as plants emerge.
Spread a layer of shredded leaves, evergreen needlesor other organic mulch over the soil surface. This con-serves moisture, helps suppress weeds and improves thesoil as they break down.
A bit of pinching and pruning now as various flow-ers fade will extend the beauty and your enjoymentthroughout summer and into fall.
