For five hours Saturday night, officers from 14 police agencies will patrol Main and Janesville Streets, pulling over drivers as often as possible in a friendly show of force. Its something Oregon police Lt. Karey Clark believes can help with what he sees as a major problem in the area. When I started here I was on nights, he told the Observer on Tuesday. Its almost scary to see how many people on the road between midnight and 3 are intoxicated some of them double or triple the legal limit. Its just too much for what should be tolerated. There certainly wont be any tolerance for drunken driving Saturday night,

Village of Oregon
In brief
Village officials are considering whether to develop east of Hwys.14/138. The Rutland land is a prime location for commercial development. DOT plans to realign Hwy. 14 into a four-lane freeway from Oregon to Brooklyn starting in 2018. The village has to decide by August whether to install a utilities casing beneath the highway. Key property owners east of the interchange urge the village to move ahead with plans to develop the area.
Village officials are looking east of Hwy. 14 as a possible direction for the future growth of the village. The discussion was part of an update given to the Village Board last week on the Wisconsin Department of Transportations plan to realign Hwy. 14 south of the village and turn the road into a fourlane freeway. The project runs to Hwy. 92, near Brooklyn. DOT officials told the board they need an answer by August if the village wants to install a casing beneath the highway
Above, last months STEAM open house at Oregon High School was well-attended by community members, some of whom got a chance to try out students battle robots. Right, OHS teacher Ryan Stace (center), explains the workings of some of the equipment used by students.
Science, technology, engineering, art and math are some of the most critical subjects for young students to master. Integrating them all into classroom learning is the idea behind the Oregon School Districts STEAM initiative, one that is sweeping across schools in the U.S. For the past three years, district director of instruction and student achievement Anita Koehler has worked with district science teachers in evaluating new achievement standards, and how they relate to an integrated STEAM curriculum. Last spring, she was contacted by Oregon Rotary about ways the group could continue its involvement with service projects for students, and in particular help to build a stronger STEAM program in the district. Coordinating with Rotarian Greg Granberg, also the OHS schoolto-work coordinator, they developed an Oregon Advisory Committee to begin the discussion of how to move forward with increasing STEAM activities for K-12 students. We began by looking at all of the great STEAMrelated learning that was already happening in our district and determined that we needed to further focus on the integration of science, technology, engineering, the arts, and math curriculum, she said. In the classroom, science and technology education teachers have successfully co-instructed a principles of engineering course for the past few years. Teachers from all subject areas have been involved in planning, including a field trip for teachers in grades 7-12, school board members, administrators and community members to visit other districts with strong STEAM programs, with plans for a similar visit for K-6 staff in the near future.

continue that loyal service. Often the superintendent has no choice but to take unpopular action, as he follows the school boards directions. If the superintendent makes moves that are unpopular or create problems, the public should hold the board accountable, not the superintendent. The board can change things by adjusting either 1) policy, or 2) supervision of the superintendent. I am very hopeful that we can make improvements in the district to benefit our students, our community, and our employees. It is guaranteed that I will make mistakes as school board president, and when I do, I ask for gentle feedback and correction. With a solid administrative team, great teachers and community support there is no reason we cant be the best school district in Wisconsin. Dan Krause is the Oregon School District Board of Education president.

Village of Oregon
After more than a year of review and adjustments, the Village of Oregon Planning Commission approved plans for apartments and duplexes along Bergamont Boulevard last week. The plans had gone through numerous revisions since they were first proposed, with commissioners and neighbors seeking
to refine the details of the process to be more in line with the aesthetics of the single-family homes inside the subdivision. The commission gave unanimous approval to the plans after about an hour of discussing the latest details with Fiduciary Real Estate Development vice president Craig Raddatz May 1. The company plans to add seven duplex buildings just north of an existing
strip of two-family homes on the west side of Bergamont Boulevard. Thirty-eight units more in 10 buildings nine four-unit apartment buildings and one duplex are planned for a 4.75-acre site north of those duplexes. On the east side of Bergamont Boulevard, 10 multifamily units in five buildings are planned for a 1.33acre site. Although the buildings are not what was originally
planned for the site, neighbors and the homeowners association have been trying to work with the commission and developer to make sure high-quality buildings would be built in the subdivision. They will have a mixture of vinyl siding and shakestyle vinyl siding and be built in the Craftsman style. Commissioners pushed for more stone on the buildings at the latest meeting. The
nine apartment buildings on the west side will alternate having a large stone feature on one side. Prominent buildings will have a stone wainscot wrap around the building edges facing Bergamont Boulevard and other visible roadways. Commissioners also sought to
differentiate the buildings by using different types of landscaping. Because of the changes made to the site plans at the last meeting, all plans are subject to a final review by village planning staff.

14-138: Hwy. 14 expansion delayed until 2018, but village wants to plan for growth
Continued from page 1 when its reconstructed in 2018. The casing would be a conduit for public water and other utilities to serve what someday may be a business park or residential area on the east side of the highway. The board didnt make a decision Monday about installing the casing, which is estimated to cost about $100,000. But village planner Mike Slavney told the board that the southeast quadrant is the only area in or adjacent to the village thats suitable for large-scale commercial development. Village officials are considering the possibility of annexing and developing more than 275 acres east of Hwy. 14. Officials began discussing the possibility of expanding the village boundary east of Hwy. 14 in 2003, when a couple of property owners approached the village about eventually annexing properties in the Town of Rutland. The DOT anticipates beginning the first phase of the six-year highway reconstruction project in 2018 two years later than village officials expected. Its expected to cost between $25 million and $29 million. Near the end of a more than two-hour meeting, the board directed village staff to prepare a budget amendment to pay for planning and proceed with arranging meetings with landowners and others about the possibility of creating a business park southeast of the Hwys. 14/138 interchange. But Slavney said that was village install the utility casnot the villages understand- ing (also called a water ing. sleeve).

In brief
UB&T Welcomes Keller to Ag Team
Brit Springer went to college to become a painter. But in todays technology age, shes putting her art instincts to a different use: multimedia design. Her business, formerly One Ear Productions and called Moonlight Designs Studio since 2012, is run out of her Brooklyn basement in a home office she shares with her husband. Springer said she realized designing websites was something that could open more doors for her than painting, plus she already had skills because much of her painting was done on a computer before paper anyway. If Im already on the computer, I might as well jump in, Springer said. And when she got a job with a company helping build websites for home building companies in Colorado, she realized how much she enjoyed it, and even though she hadnt been trained in graphic design, she quickly found success. She expanded from only web design to full multimedia design, including print advertisements and logo design, when a client was unhappy with the different branding between her website design and the ads for the side of a bus that another company had done. They said we absolutely dont like them, she said. I was like well I could have three of them for you by the end of the day. As soon as it came off my tongue, I was like oh my goodness, what did I Only Sergenians
Moonlight Designs Studio Owner Brit Springer shows off her website, which she is in the process of redesigning. Springer runs her multimedia design business out of a basement office in her Brooklyn home, where she moved to in 2012 from Colorado.

do? Ive never done a print piece in my life and now Im going to take a bus ad. That ad ended up remaining on the sides of Colorado buses for nine months, six more than originally planned, and driving by a bus with her ad on the side changed her perspective on what she was doing. While I was bummed Im not a painter, per say, I have to look at it as a different point of view. Now, instead of just being in a gallery, the world is now becoming my gallery. Im
building and creating things and people are going to see it. She still takes that level of pride in her work, going over to the Brooklyn Business Complex on a recent day to take a selfie with the signs she had designed. Springer enjoys doing local projects like the business complex, and has spent time doing designs for other small community groups around the Brooklyn area. Ive learned, the more you give back the more comes back, she said. A blog post about that very idea led one of her biggest clients, Little Free Library, right to her and the
group asked if she would design a new logo. After some initial hesitation, Springer decided What the heck? Why not? She did, and after the logo proved successful they asked her to redesign the company website as well, which launched in September 2013 as the largest website shed built. I really enjoy what they were trying to do, which is bring the community together, she said. They make it known that they appreciate everything that Ive done. Though the artist in her motivates her to keep doing what shes grown to

Shorthair. How long have you had your pet? I have had Ashlynn since she was just a few months old. What makes your pet special? Ashlynn is special because she is my constant shadow. She does everything I do at the same time I do. She is very friendly and docile but she is for sure a one person cat and that person is me. For example, when I am brushing
my teeth in the morning she sits on the side of the sink and watches me. When I get into bed at night she jumps up onto my pillow and paws at my head until I let her under the covers to snuggle. When my alarm goes off in the morning she stretches and jumps out of bed right behind me. In fact she hardly ever stays asleep while I am awake.
About my pet: A few months after I got Ashlynn I I received a framed picture of her as a gift from one of my relatives. I put the picture in the middle of my kitchen table as the centerpiece. Before the picture Ashlynn never had any interest in climbing on top of the table. However, the same day I put the picture up I came home from work later that day to find her on top of the table sitting next to it.

A win seemed imminent for the Oregon High School baseball team last Friday at Stampfl Field, especially with the way senior Jack Krueger was pitching. Krueger shut Verona down for six innings and tallied five strikeouts, but after a walk in the seventh, he was pulled for a having a high pitch count. Junior Andrew Pliner and senior Ross Galloway came in to try and close out the game, but the Wildcats continued to rally until an RBI single by senior Jeffrey Reinholtz ended the game in a 3-2 loss. The pitching was a question mark in the non-conference game that may have seeding implications in a month. With the weather forcing postponements
Team W-L Stoughton 6-0 Fort Atkinson 4-1 Oregon 4-1 Milton 3-4 Monona Grove 1-4 Monroe 0-3 Madison Edgewood 0-4 early on, the Panthers were in the midst of playing six times in seven days. So when Pliner told Connor he wanted to pitch, Connor decided to give him 30 pitches to get it done last Friday to save some of his other arms for later in the week. (Pliner) came in and tried to throw
strikes. That is tough, Connor said. Hindsight, maybe I go to a different guy, but with arms going the way they are right now, we have to use who we have. He was available, and I went to him. To Veronas credit, they clutched up. They got hits when they needed to and got it done. Verona senior Tony Granick worked Krueger for a walk to lead off the seventh and force the pitching change. Pliner came in, but Verona was able to load the bases with no outs after a walk to sophomore Keaton Knueppel and a fielders choice by senior Mitch Flora. Junior David Rogowski followed with an RBI fielders choice that put runners on the corners with one out, and sophomore Ben Rortvedt followed with an RBI single.

in the third, winning 6-2, 5-7, 6-1 atop the lineup. Jackson Wilhelm and Drew Christofferson were inconsistent at times, though they held on to win 6-4, 6-4. Matt Reisdorf and Spencer Kresbach pulled out another close match, 7-5, 6-2. Overall, we need to get back to a higher level of play, Conklin said. The Panthers host Monona Grove in a conference dual meet at 4:30 p.m. Friday. Oregon singles players travel to Stoughton the following day for the Vikings annual invitational meet. Doubles action will take place at Oregon High School. Big Foot, Jefferson, Monroe, Janesville Parker, Sauk Prairie, St. John Northwestern and Milton will all be at the tournament. Stoughton hosts the Panthers in conference action at 4:30 p.m. Tuesday, May 13. Oregon has yet to set a date for its dual meet make-up match against Madison Edgewood, which was originally scheduled for Tuesday, April 29. Both teams remain undefeated in conference action.
Oregon boys tennis hosted Monroe in a Badger South Conference dual meet Tuesday and despite a 6-1 victory, Panthers head coach Ben Conklin wasnt all that impressed. Tonight was not our best match, Conklin said. We were inconsistent, especially our doubles teams, perhaps because we havent had a match since April 26. We looked rusty. Freshman Calvin Schneider stepped up to No. 1 singles with his brother out and rolled 6-2, 6-0. Brady Behrend moved up to No. 2 singles and played another nice match, winning 6-2, 6-3. Continuing the upswing, freshman Charles Donovan started slow but finished out a 6-3, 6-2 win at No. 3 singles. Nate Ironmonger had by far the closest match of the evening, but was unable to get over the hump. He fell 6-4, 7-6 (5) at No. 4 singles. Oregons No. 1 doubles team of Alec Onesti and Dakota Tollakson split their first two sets before finally taking over
The Oregon softball team had five hits, but once again failed to string anything together Tuesday, falling 13-0 against Badger South Conference rival Milton. Oregon found out last week it will be even thinner on the mound as senior Cee Cee Herale most likely wont throw again this season. Freshman Jayme Zander continued to swing a hot bat, collecting a double. The Panthers travel to Stoughton for a 5 p.m. game against the Vikings on Friday. Oregon then heads to Mount Horeb on Saturday to face the Vikings, New Glarus and Belleville over the weekend. Oregon hosts Fort Atkinson at 5 p.m. Tuesday, May 13.
The Panthers game last Thursday was rained out. It will be made up at 5 p.m. May 15 in Waunakee. Oregon will make up its April 29 game at home against Monona Grove at 5 p.m. May 22.
Slinger Quad
The Panthers were 10-runned in all three games at the Slinger quad over the weekend. Oregon fell 11-1 against Sussex-Hamilton and Slinger.

Zander (2-for-2) scored on Allie Greenes double in the fourth inning against SussexHamilton. Marissa Kelcker singled home a run again Slinger. Zander collected a two-run single against Whitefish Bay.

Former OHS ace Ben Riffle tossed nine innings, allowing one earned run on four hits and two walks. He struck out 11. Riffle helped pitch Stoughton to the HTL Final Four championship game a year ago.

OHS teacher Ryan Stace kept busy during the STEAM open house explaining the equipment students use in classes.
Above, teacher Erik Haackenson explains students battle robots. Below, teacher Greg Granberg converses with a parent and student about STEAM courses at Oregon High School.
Real-world motivation
This summer, K-5 teachers will attend training for an elementary STEAM program, Engineering is Elementary. It focuses on project-based activities that require a solid knowledge base, higher level thinking and problem-solving skills, and connections with science-related careers. Once trained, the group of teachers and administrators will explore this curriculum and make recommendations for changes to the districts K-5 science curriculum. Research shows that students who understand the purpose and real-world application of their learning are more motivated to learn, Koehler said. The more we can engage students in project-based, higher level thinking and problem-solving activities, the better prepared they will be for their future. It is our goal to expand these learning opportunities PK-12 across our district. Oregon High School offers three agriculture courses that provide students with high school science credit. OHS principal Kelly Meyers said STEAM
fits well into the districts ongoing efforts to provide students with educational opportunities to secure experiences for what we know to be the an increasing area of employment for future jobs and careers. Meyers said some classes are cross-walked, where students can get credit beyond electives for taking courses, like principles of engineering. STEAM education is no fad, either. Last May, Oregon School Board members determined the program was one of their top five priorities for the district. Board member Rae Vogeler, part of the districts STEAM task force, has often met with teachers to find out more about the integrated approach and came away very impressed, noting that they had even drawn up an architectural STEAM plan for their school to include in a possible future referendum. They are passionate about this integrated approach to learning and are providing excellent education for our students, she told the Observer.
