Voters in the Southern Door School District will have an extra item on their ballots this fall. On Monday, the Southern Door School Board passed the resolutions required to ask voters to exceed the revenue limit by $2.055 million per year for three years.

“After engaging with our community in recent months and careful consideration, the Board of Education has taken the next step in allowing our voters to consider a referendum measure in November,” said Superintendent Dr. Kevin Krutzik. “This proposal is about investing in our schools in ways that will strengthen educational opportunities for our students while helping position Southern Door for continued success in the years ahead.”

This marks the second time the district’s voters have weighed in on an operational referendum, after rejecting a measure in April that would have allowed the district to exceed the state revenue limit by $3.15 million annually for three years.

More than a dozen positions were cut, including one elementary school teacher, two middle school teachers and five high school teachers. A pay freeze was instituted for all employees, co-curricular assignment pay and travel were cut, and computer and student device replacements were delayed. Three sports programs were also cut but were later reinstated with support from the Southern Door Athletic Booster Club.

By passing the new referendum, the district hopes it can provide market-rate pay raises for staff, fund essential facility repairs and maintenance, and restore select teaching positions.

“Balancing the district’s budget required our board to make many difficult decisions, and we know those decisions have had an impact on our staff and our students,” said Board President Janel Veeser. “We are hopeful that a new operational referendum will provide the financial means to restore some of the staff positions and programming that were lost because we want to give our students the opportunities, support, and resources they need to succeed.”

District officials say that even if the referendum passes, the mill rate will drop from its current $6.99 per $1,000 of equalized value to $6.35 for the upcoming school year, $6.07 for the 2027-28 school year and $5.61 for the 2028-29 school year.

The referendum will appear on the Nov. 3 general election ballot.

Now that county fair season is officially over for Door and Kewaunee counties, the search for the next Fairest and Junior Fairest of the Fair in Kewaunee County is on. The Kewaunee County Fair has opened its application window for its Junior Fairest of the Fair title.

This year’s Fairest, Savannah Bailey, and Junior Fairest, Teresa Livingstone, crisscrossed the county attending events and promoting the Kewaunee County Fair, in addition to passing out ribbons, visiting with exhibitors and sponsors, and introducing entertainment acts.

Bailey became the most recent Fairest to pull double duty for the Kewaunee County Fair after serving as Junior Fairest in 2019. During this year’s Kewaunee County Fair, Bailey said she enjoyed meeting community members and getting a different view of the livestock shows after years of exhibiting animals in the show ring herself.

Kewaunee County Junior Fairest of the Fair applicants must be in grades 6 through 10, be able to participate in the Fairest Gala on Jan. 8, 2027, and attend events throughout the county, including the Kewaunee County Fair July 8-11, 2027.

You can find the application and more details about the role at this link. The application for Kewaunee County Fairest of the Fair will be available in the coming weeks.

For many individuals, finding a job is a lot harder than just filling out an application. According to We are HOPE, Inc.-The EmployAbility Hub Executive Director Kim Carley, disabilities, age, justice status and a lack of confidence are just some of the reasons people who want to work struggle to find the right fit or keep the jobs they already have.

She says summer is a busy time because there are so many opportunities available that some people just do not know where to start. Carley says We are HOPE’s programming helps people find the tools and confidence they need to get the jobs they desire.

We are HOPE, Inc.-The EmployAbility Hub is in the middle of its annual campaign, with a goal of raising $50,000 to continue supporting the community through career exploration, job training and employment services.

One of its biggest fundraisers is the Grub at the Hub event on Sept. 29. You can find more information about the event below.

An 81-year-old Appleton man died and a 68-year-old Appleton man was injured in a boating accident in Kewaunee on Monday morning.

The accident occurred at about 4:30 a.m. along the north breakwall near the Kewaunee Lighthouse Pier. According to the initial investigation, the 81-year-old man was driving his 18-foot fishing boat out of Kewaunee Harbor when it struck the south side of the north breakwall.

He suffered fatal injuries in the crash, and his body was recovered by the U.S. Coast Guard. His passenger was rescued, taken to land and treated for his injuries by Kewaunee Rescue.

No names have been released, and the crash remains under investigation by the Kewaunee Police Department and Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.

The Kewaunee County Sheriff’s Department, Kewaunee Marina and Kewaunee Public Works Department also assisted in the rescue efforts.

The same community that welcomes summer in June with its Fyr Bal will bid it farewell Saturday when Ephraim hosts its first Sweet Summer Send-Off at Harborside Park.

Running from 1 to 4 p.m., the event will feature balloon artists, caricaturists and musicians throughout the park, in addition to red bouncy balls that are part of a scavenger hunt. Attendees can also check out food at local restaurants and visit with members of the Ephraim Fire Department.

The event is free to attend, but visitors are encouraged to bring school supplies to be distributed at schools throughout Door County as part of the countywide Community Business Association school supply drive.

Ephraim’s Sweet Summer Send-Off comes just over a week before many schools around the state begin classes, with most public schools starting Sept. 1.

A 53-year-old Green Bay woman was transported to a Green Bay hospital Sunday afternoon after she lost control of her motorcycle and crashed in the town of Brussels.

The crash occurred just before 4:20 p.m. on State Highway 57 near School Road. According to the accident report, the motorcyclist was traveling south when she attempted to change lanes and lost control.

She crashed in the median and was unable to recall the incident when speaking with responding personnel. She was wearing a helmet and protective gear when the crash occurred.

The crash closed a lane of traffic for about 40 minutes while emergency personnel tended to the motorcyclist and cleared the scene. The lane reopened shortly after 5 p.m.

A 73-year-old Ellison Bay man suffered scratches and bruises to his knee after he was struck by a vehicle backing up Saturday in Baileys Harbor.

According to the accident report, the man was walking near the gas pumps at approximately 10 a.m. when he was struck by a vehicle driven by a 50-year-old Joliet, Illinois, woman who was backing into a parking spot.

The impact caused the man to grab the vehicle’s rear windshield wiper for balance before falling. He was treated at the scene and declined transportation to the hospital.

The driver, who said she did not see the man in her backup camera, was warned for failing to yield the right of way to a pedestrian.

A 71-year-old Sister Bay woman was cited for her role in a two-vehicle crash in the town of Egg Harbor on Friday. The crash occurred at the intersection of County Highway E and Heritage Lake Road just before noon.

According to the accident report, the woman was stopped on Heritage Lake Road and was looking to cross County Highway E while heading north when she pulled out in front of an eastbound vehicle driven by a 20-year-old Eau Claire woman.

The Sister Bay woman told the deputy she looked but did not see the other vehicle coming. The Eau Claire woman said she saw the vehicle pulling out slowly but could not avoid the crash.

Both drivers and two passengers, both 21-year-old women from River Falls, suffered possible injuries that did not require hospitalization. Both vehicles had to be towed because of disabling damage.

The Sister Bay woman was cited for failing to yield the right of way from a stop sign.

If last Tuesday was any indication, poll workers in Door and Kewaunee counties are going to be even busier in November when the general election comes around.

Both counties saw strong turnout in the fall primary, with about 40% of registered voters in Kewaunee County and 50% in Door County casting ballots. Both figures were much higher than the statewide voter turnout of 27%, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

Kewaunee County Clerk Jamie Annoye and Door County Clerk Jill Lau said the evening went smoothly for their municipal clerks and poll workers despite the higher-than-usual number of voters.

Annoye said communication was especially important for this election because it was a partisan primary, meaning voters casting a ballot in the Democratic primary could not weigh in on the Kewaunee County sheriff’s race, which featured only Republican candidates.

Lau said fall primary participation has been increasing since 2020 and added that Tuesday’s record turnout is an indicator of how busy the Nov. 3 general election could be.

Sept. 17 is the next major date to keep in mind, as that is when municipal clerks must send absentee ballots to voters with an active request on file. Otherwise, the deadline to register to vote by mail or online is Oct. 14, and in-person absentee voting will take place from Oct. 20 through Nov. 1.

There was plenty to see and do over the five days of the Door County Fair, but a trip through the exhibition halls and barns told a much longer story. More than 6,000 exhibits were entered in this year’s Door County Fair, ranging from Lego sculptures and pottery to photographs and paintings.

Just next door, dozens of animals took up residence for the week after their exhibitors spent weeks, if not months, caring for them and ensuring they were ready for show day. Keegan and Kinsley Schopf, two of the fair’s younger exhibitors, spent lots of time walking with their goats to prepare them for the Door County Fair. The pair enjoy spending time with their animals while also getting a chance to go on some rides in between.

Parker Lacrosse’s time with his beef steers yielded him not just blue ribbons but a buyer during Saturday’s Door County Quality Market Animal Sale. He says it can be hard to say goodbye after so much time together, but he understands it is just part of the deal at the fair.

The Door County Fair wraps up Sunday after five days of food, fun and music. The more than 150-year-old tradition will return next August to John Miles County Park in Sturgeon Bay.

The Kewaunee County Board is one step away from removing the sunset provision for its 0.5% county sales tax. The ordinance was previously read at the board’s July meeting, paving the way for its potential passage Tuesday when the Kewaunee County Board meets in Kewaunee.

The 0.5% sales tax was instituted by the Kewaunee County Board in 2017 and extended for another five years in 2021. The amended ordinance removes the Dec. 31, 2026, sunset date, an action required to take place at least 120 days before the original repeal date. The amended ordinance would still allow a future Kewaunee County Board to repeal the tax.

Keeping the sales tax in place would also keep Kewaunee County among the 70 Wisconsin counties that have one, with Waukesha and Winnebago counties the lone exceptions. Speaking after last month’s meeting, Kewaunee County Board Chairperson Dan Olson said that although he is not a fan of the tax, repealing it would leave a giant hole in the county’s budget.

The Kewaunee County Board will also weigh in on a petition for bridge aid in the town of Red River and the purchase of real property in the town of Casco, in addition to hearing from Finance Director Paul Kunesh, Clerk of Courts Rebecca Deterville and Administrator Jeremy Kral. Tuesday’s meeting begins at 6 p.m.

There have been some significant concerns surrounding a new technology that is being incorporated for the purpose of enhanced public safety. The technology is known as LPRs or License Plate Readers, and it consists of fixed cameras along public roadways, by which any and all vehicles traveling on those roadways are subject to their vehicle license plate information being scanned and subsequently stored in a data base.

As you can imagine having a data base of not just vehicle information, but also the associated travel activity could and has been of great value in the investigation of crimes. We have seen similar technologies such as ring door bell, and CCTV (Closed Circuit TV) be of great use as we work to solve crimes, protect victims, and keep our communities safe. It is that last word that I want to focus on in this article; Safe. What does it mean to be safe? To what levels are we willing to go to in the pursuit of safety? How do we strike a balance between our desire for safety, while sustaining the freedoms we cherish so dearly.

Freedom by its nature is a risky proposition. For every decision we make, we take a certain risk. From driving vehicles, to riding a bike or going for a walk. Even in our daily habits of how we spend or invest our money. Each action brings with it, an associated risk. There are some who would say that we need greater restrictions, or more regulations in the name safety. There are many who yearn for a reality whereby pain, suffering, or discomfort could be eliminated by the increased intervention of government. As law enforcement officers, our purpose and mission is rooted in the pursuit of keeping our communities safe. Each time there is an auto accident, a theft, or tragic incident, we look inward, and ask how could we have prevented such a thing from happening. In most cases however, the answer is, we can’t. Many times, the best we can do is respond, and provide as much dignity and respect to the victims, while conducting the most professional and thorough investigation in pursuit of justice.

The truth of the matter is that we live in a free country, and that freedom brings with it risks and dangers. Although a utopian dream of safety at all costs may be alluring, we must guard against that utopia stripping us of the freedoms that make life worth living, and allow us each to live out our life’s purpose.

The application of any tactic or technology by those who serve the public, must always strike that important balance between the safety of that community, and the preservation of the God given freedom of that same community.

As the great Ben Franklin once stated. “Those who would give up essential liberty, to purchase a little temporary safety, deserve neither liberty nor safety.”There have been some significant concerns surrounding a new technology that is being incorporated for the purpose of enhanced public safety.

Door County Administrator Ken Pabich says uncertainty and anticipation about the future are among the hardest parts of crafting the county’s 2027 budget.

Door County, like other municipalities across the state, is in the early stages of budget planning, with details expected to be shared at upcoming meetings before the budget is ultimately approved in November.

On Aug. 25, Door County officials will hold a budget session following the regular County Board meeting. Officials will try to nail down the details before sending the budget to committees for their input.

One major expense on the horizon is actually planned for 2028, when the county hopes to begin work on its new emergency communications system.

What Pabich does not know yet is what impact the "One Big Beautiful Bill" could have on the county’s Health and Human Services Department and what the state budget could look like with a new governor on the way.

Kewaunee County officials will also begin sharing details of their budget at upcoming meetings, with a public hearing already scheduled for Oct. 20.

The summer harvest of wheat and oats is coming to a quick conclusion thanks to favorable weather for farmers.

According to the USDA Crop Progress and Condition Report, farmers had 5.7 days suitable for fieldwork last week, with some much-needed rainfall in southern Wisconsin bringing down the statewide average.

The weather allowed farmers to make considerable progress on their harvests, with the oat harvest jumping from 41 percent complete to 57 percent and the winter wheat harvest going from 69 percent complete to 85 percent.

While some crops are coming off the fields, others are still developing nicely in them. Corn silking is maintaining its five-year average at 72 percent, with 16 percent of corn reaching the dough stage. Soybeans are trending a little ahead of schedule, with 86 percent blooming and 53 percent setting pods. Area farmers are also halfway done with their third cutting of alfalfa.

A scary situation could have been much worse for an 18-year-old Sturgeon Bay woman after she rolled her vehicle Wednesday morning in the town of Gardner. The crash occurred shortly after 11:30 a.m. on Stevenson Pier Road near County Highway K.

According to the crash report, she was traveling north on Stevenson Pier Road when some items began to roll off the passenger seat. As she tried to stop more of the items from falling, she crossed the centerline and entered the southbound lane.

Her vehicle rolled over before landing on its tires, with two of them in the southbound lane. No citations were issued and no injuries were reported, but the vehicle had to be towed from the scene because of disabling damage.

The City of Sturgeon Bay will now wrap up negotiations with some developers and start them with others over infrastructure improvements needed to begin work in the newly amended and created tax increment districts, or TIDs.

The TIDs were officially approved Thursday after the city met with local school districts, the county, Northeast Wisconsin Technical College and local residents to discuss the scope of the proposed projects and determine whether the TIDs are necessary for the projects to become a reality.

The city has been working not only to create TID No. 12 to help fund infrastructure improvements necessary to build a new housing development along Division Road, but also to amend TIDs 7, 9 and 10 to expand those districts and facilitate future residential and commercial development.

As a result, the districts grew by more than 120 acres following the Aug. 4 Common Council meeting, including the 77 acres in the proposed TID No. 12.

Sturgeon Bay City Administrator Josh Van Lieshout says the creation of TID No. 12 and amendments to some of the others help the city address a major concern: having enough housing supply to meet demand in the area, especially for the workforce.

Van Lieshout adds that it is important to note that under Wisconsin law, property taxes currently being generated on pre-development land continue to go to the local taxing jurisdictions.

Currently, 8% of the city is in a TID, below the 12% maximum allowed by the state.

Destination Door County’s Community Investment Fund is making it easier for you to enjoy the birds, sail the bay and find a bathroom through its latest round of grants.

The organization announced more than $190,000 in grants Friday, bringing the total to more than $3.9 million for 74 supported projects.

The largest award was for Destination Sturgeon Bay’s $87,000 effort to create ADA-accessible bathrooms in the city’s downtown to support visitors and residents while they shop, dine and explore the area. Destination Sturgeon Bay Executive Director Cameryn Ehlers-Kwaterski says that this grant will allow them to start the process of a more extensive renovation of their visitor center which has seen more traffic in recent years.

The Patriot Racing Project received $74,200 to preserve and restore the tall ship Utopia, which docks at the Door County Maritime Museum and provides maritime experiences, education and veteran programming to the community.

Open Door Bird Sanctuary received $29,060 in support to build a year-round, ADA-accessible songbird aviary to expand its educational experiences while providing a permanent home to many of its feathered friends. The organization also received $9,000 from the Door County Community Foundation, bringing the total investment in the project to $38,060.

Destination Door County President and CEO Jon Jarosh says this round of grants shows how tourism can have a positive impact on the community, whether the projects are ordinary or extraordinary.

The next grant application deadline is Sept. 28. Jarosh encourages nonprofits and government agencies alike to speak with the Door County Community Foundation to see if their projects qualify for the Community Investment Fund program, which is funded by room tax collections.

For the second time this year, Southern Door School District could be asking voters for a little extra help funding its operations.

The Southern Door School Board looks to pass resolutions asking to exceed the revenue limit by $2.055 million per year for three years when it meets Monday.

The district announced last week it was exploring the possibility after voters rejected a measure in April that would have allowed the district to exceed the state revenue limit by $3.15 million annually for three years.

After that referendum failed by a vote of 2,031 to 1,603, more than a dozen positions were cut, including one elementary school teacher, two middle school teachers and five high school teachers. A pay freeze was instituted for all employees, co-curricular assignment pay and travel were cut, and computer and student device replacements were delayed.

Three sports programs were also cut, but they were later reinstated with support from the Southern Door Athletic Booster Club.

According to the meeting agenda packet, the new referendum would help the district provide market-value pay raises for staff, fund essential facility repairs and maintenance, and restore select teaching positions.

If approved, the measure would appear on the November ballot.

It would also be the second school referendum being discussed in Door County this fall. Sturgeon Bay School District will also make a decision on its possible referendum next week.

If you want to experience Washington Island while enjoying the fun of a fair, you are in luck this Saturday. The Washington Island Lions Club is hosting its annual Island Fair at the Washington Island School.

Kicking off with a parade at noon, the annual event will commemorate the 250th birthday of the United States while also featuring live music, exhibits, games and more. The Island Fair is one of the major fundraisers the Washington Island Lions Club hosts each summer. Lions Club member Joel Gunnlaugsson said last month that the events support many causes in the community.

The Washington Island Fair and Parade costs $2 to attend, with all proceeds benefiting local charities supported by the Washington Island Lions Club.

Kewaunee County Sheriff-elect Eric Zellner is excited to experience for himself what it means to be the county’s top cop after his primary win Tuesday. Zellner, who serves as Kewaunee County Sheriff Matt Joski’s lieutenant of operations, won the Republican primary with 2,711 votes, more than the combined total of Scott Szydel and Kevin Schmidt.

With no other nominees put forward by the area’s other political parties, a win in August is essentially a win in November, meaning Zellner will take over for Joski at year’s end. Zellner says it was a special moment for him and his family when he realized the promotion Kewaunee County voters granted him Tuesday.

Zellner believes his conversations with the community will set him up well for when he takes the post in January and appreciates Joski for the support and encouragement to run for sheriff.

In his 28-year career with the department, Zellner started as a part-time jailer and dispatcher before taking on other positions, including SWAT team member, patrol deputy, field training officer, evidence room manager and drug investigator.

A Nasewaupee homeowner lost their garage and everything inside it after a fire Wednesday morning. The Nasewaupee Fire Department responded to the blaze on County Highway M between Elms and Hammarstrom roads shortly before 9:15 a.m.

The single-stall garage was already fully engulfed when crews arrived, but the fire was quickly extinguished once crews established a water supply. The Brussels-Union-Gardner, Southern Door and Sturgeon Bay fire departments also responded, along with the Door County Sheriff’s Department and Door County Emergency Services, but not in time to save the structure and its contents.

No injuries were reported, and the cause of the fire remains undetermined.

Smiles dotted the midway and beyond on the opening day of the Door County Fair. The work to make the fair a reality began long before the first animals and projects arrived Wednesday morning. Setup for a new carnival and different features like Jurassic Kingdom and Dominguez Attractions began earlier in the week, while the behind-the-scenes work by the Door County Fair Board started as members said goodbye to the final guests of the 2025 event.

Mike Kuehn has spent many summer days at the Door County Fair, starting on the cleanup crews as a 10-year-old and now serving as a member of the fair board and his business, Door County Custom Creations, a sponsor of the main stage that welcomed The Glam Band for the Door County Fair’s opening night. Kuehn is happy to see friends and families enjoying the fair as much as he does.

One of those people is Sturgeon Bay’s Phineas Shaw, who brought five projects to the fair. His parents also brought several exhibits of their own, all among the more than 6,000 that will be on display throughout the fairgrounds.

Shaw took a lot of pride in the work that went into his projects and the five blue ribbons he earned for them.

The Door County Fair continues through Sunday, with some of the livestock shows starting Thursday morning.

Three brands of tractors that were once united in business will reunite in spirit this weekend at the Valmy Thresheree. Oliver, Minneapolis-Moline and White equipment will be featured at this year’s event, which opens Friday.

According to Successful Farming, White Motor Co. acquired Oliver and Minneapolis-Moline in the early 1960s before merging them under the White Farm Equipment Co. banner in 1969. The Oliver and Minneapolis-Moline brands disappeared by the mid-1970s, while the White name disappeared from tractors by 2001.

Tractor pulls will be part of the weekend entertainment, with antiques taking the track Saturday and garden and kids’ pedal tractors taking over Sunday. The weekend concludes with the Cavalcade of Power at noon Sunday before mud pig wrestling begins at 3:30 p.m.

The annual event will also feature historical equipment demonstrations, an antique chainsaw competition, church services and live music. You can find more details about the event here.

Last May proved to be a swan song for Griffon String Quartet cellist Jesse Nummelin after Midsummer’s Music recently announced his departure. Nummelin had performed with the Griffon String Quartet for three years before leaving the ensemble to spend more time with his wife, Rie Tanaka, in Arizona, where she is an accomplished pianist and educator.

Midsummer’s Music Executive Director Allyson Fleck says Nummelin served the roles of performer and educator well during his stint with the group.

Fleck adds that it takes a unique individual to be a great performer and an outstanding teacher at the same time.

You can find information on how to apply to be Nummelin’s replacement here. The Griffon String Quartet’s first performances of the season will take place Sept. 17, with an afternoon appearance at First Presbyterian Church of Green Bay followed by an evening show at The Tarlton Theatre in Green Bay.

Republican voters in Wisconsin’s 1st State Senate District have become accustomed to seeing Andre Jacque and Matt Joski’s names on the ballot, but for the first time in a long time, that was not the case Tuesday.

Joski and Jacque announced their departures from their respective positions earlier this year, paving the way for new faces to step into the fold.

Joski began his long goodbye in January when he announced his retirement after 20 years on the job. Tuesday marked the first time since 2006 that his name was not on the ballot, and he is ready for the next step and to support his successor.

Jacque has been more visible since announcing his looming departure from the Wisconsin Legislature after 15 years of service in the Assembly and Senate. He has continued to attend many of the events he would have as a sitting state senator while also supporting Republican candidate Nic Cravillion in his bid to take Jacque’s seat.

For the first time since 2011, Jacque said he had mixed feelings not being on a primary ballot, but he is looking forward to supporting the community in other ways.

Despite the finality that Tuesday’s primary brought, both Jacque and Joski are excited to finish their terms through the end of the year.
