    Third Annual Fall Follieswill be held October 2Contributed By �ina Kohler, President ofthe Kohler School Foundation.

    On October 2, 2009 the Kohler School

    Foundation will hold its annual

    fundraiser, Fall Follies, at the Kohler

    Stables. This is the second year the event

    will be held at the Kohler Stables – a

    venue not normally open to the public.

    An interior horse arena is converted to a

    western roadhouse, complete with

    entertainment, food, drink and dancing.

    Silent and live auctions will also be

    conducted with a wide variety of

    products, services and value levels.

    The Kohler Stables facility is large,

    but with last year’s attendance exceeding

    300, it is expected that capacity will be

    reached this year, so the Foundation is

    asking that everyone please reserve their

    seats early.

    Reservations will be $37.50 per

    person and will be available early in

    September. As with last year, groups can

    reserve tables for eight, and corporate

    sponsorship opportunities are also

    available. Questions may be directed to

    the Kohler School Foundation at

    [email protected].

    The Fall Follies is intended to be a fun

    way to bring the community together

    while raising money for the benefit of

    Kohler Schools. The more than $70,000

    raised by the event over the last two

    years has allowed the Foundation to fund

    important technology improvements at

    the schools, which have improved and

    enhanced teaching and learning

    opportunities.

    The Foundation invites all to join

    friends and neighbors in celebrating

    Kohler’s continuing commitment toward

    high quality education. Teachers and

    their spouses will continue their

    dedication to Kohler students by

    attending and assisting with the staging

    and operation of the Follies. Students

    will contribute to the Follies in many

    ways, and food will be prepared and

    served by the school’s own Chef Ted

    [Weidman].

    Don’t forget to mark calendars now

    for Friday, October 2. Contact friends

    and neighbors and purchase reservations

    early to insure access to a fun-filled

    night.

    miles to the southwest of the Vil-

    This Ozaukee County “village” of

    approximately 90 homes and 225

    residents (about one-tenth the size

    of “Big” Kohler), located on CTH

    H just west of Fredonia, has a col-

    Greetings,

    It’s hard to believe we’re already half-

    way through the summer. It’s great to see

    the level of participation in our summer

    recreation programs and steady use of the

    pool facilities. I hope everyone is having

    a great summer and that you are enjoying

    favorite activities with family and friends.

    With our favorable summer weather,

    the reconstruction of School Street is

    moving along well. As with all construc-

    tion projects, especially one that is deal-

    ing with an aged infrastructure, a few

    things have come up that needed further

    consideration. However, Omnni Associ-

    ates and Dorner Construction, Inc. have

    worked well with the Village Board in

    keeping the project moving forward. It is

    anticipated that the project will be far

    enough along for the reopening of School

    Street with the beginning of the new

    school year on September 1st. Unfortu-

    nately, the dust and inconvenience can’t

    be avoided with a project such as this.

    Your patience and understanding is

    greatly appreciated as this aged infra-

    structure is replaced.

    I am certain that many Village resi-

    dents are waiting for an update on the

    new Lost Woods Park Shelter plans. It is

    exciting to announce that the plans have

    been finalized and submitted for bids.

    The Village Board will have a contractor

    selected by the time this issue of TheKohler Villager reaches you. In my Sep-tember article more detailed information

    will be disseminated, along with a time-

    line for breaking ground and completion

    of the new structure. The Village Board is

    most appreciative of the continued com-

    munity support for the upgrading of the

    Lost Woods Park facility. Also exciting is

    the cooperation among the three major

    Village entities in having the project be-

    come a reality: the Kohler Co., the Kohler

    School District, and the Kohler Village

    Board.

    past June. Over the years there have been

    a few mix-ups due to the proximity of one

    Kohler to the other. An out-of-town priest

    apparently journeyed to the wrong Kohler

    in search of the wedding he was supposed

    to perform. Then there’s the story of the

    semi-truck driver who, after searching

    Little Kohler in vain, stopped a passer-by

    to ask where the Kohler Co. was.

    When asked whether they had ever vis-

    ited the Village of Kohler, one of the res-

    idents told of how several years ago she

    had received her first traffic ticket while

    visiting Kohler. She recollected that the

    officer had joked to her, “Today’s my

    birthday and I’m giving out tickets.”

    Today, Little Kohler contains St.

    Mary’s Church, an auto body shop, a tav-

    ern (closed at the moment), a 4-H club,

    and the Pine View Wildlife Rehabilitation

    Center, which was featured on Milwaukee

    Public Television’s “Outdoor Wisconsin”

    series in 2006 for its efforts to stabilize

    and strengthen small animals for eventual

    release back into the wild. The Eastern

    Shores Library System bookmobile also

    makes a regular stop in Little Kohler. In

    the past 15-20 years, a few small subdivi-

    sions have been built, and its convenient

    but peaceful location, only a few miles

    from STH 57 and I-43, make it likely that

    Little Kohler will continue to survive.

    Of perhaps greatest interest, however,

    is whether there was any connection be-

    tween the founders of Little Kohler and

    the Village of Kohler. The founders of Lit-

    tle Kohler emigrated from Bavaria, Ger-

    many in the late 1840s. The original

    settlers were Martin Sr. and Theresa

    Koller and their children. That’s right, K-

    o-l-l-e-r. Due to a spelling error, most

    likely brought on by the proximity of the

    Sheboygan County Kohler, what should

    have been named Koller was instead iden-

    tified on maps and road signs as Kohler,

    with the “Little” being added to set it apart

    from the Village of Kohler further north.

    Since no one has been able to make a suc-

    cessful effort to get the spelling on maps

    or road signs changed, the error persists to

    this day.

    A new permanent drop off box for the

    proper and safe disposal of waste medica-

    tions has been located in the foyer of the

    City of Sheboygan Police Department at

    1315 North 23rd Street. Citizens of She-

    boygan and Sheboygan County will now

    have a convenient and readily accessible

    location to get rid of waste medications on

    an ongoing basis. Waste medications if

    improperly disposed of can cause environ-

    mental harm, cause accidental childhood

    poisoning, and be illegally taken by peo-

    ple with substance abuse problems. The

    illicit trade in stolen or misappropriated

    prescription medications is linked to

    crimes, injuries, and deaths in our com-

    munities.

    A partnership between the Sheboygan

    County Planning and Resources Depart-

    ment, the City of Sheboygan Police De-

    partment, and the Healthy Sheboygan

    County 2020 Committee has developed

    the drop-off program, one of the first in

    Wisconsin. A metal box similar to a mail-

    box has been mounted to the floor in the

    foyer of the police station. People with

    waste medications can simply drop them

    in the box, no questions asked. A video

    surveillance system monitors the location.

    People are asked to keep medications in

    their original labeled containers to aid in

    identification of the collected medica-

    tions. Names can be crossed off the label

    to maintain confidentiality.

    The new waste medication drop off

    box will supplement the annual County-

    wide collection of waste medications that

    will be held this year on October 3rd. Last

    year, more than 800 pounds of waste med-

    ications were collected during the annual

    collection. We do not know how many

    pounds of waste medications we will be

    collecting at the new permanent drop off

    location.

    Funding for the waste medication col-

    lection and disposal program has been

    provided by the Sheboygan County Board

    of Supervisors. If the new waste medica-

    tions drop off location project in Sheboy-

    gan is successful, we may be placing drop

    off boxes for waste medications in other

    communities such as Plymouth and Ran-

    dom Lake.

    For more information, contact Jim Hul-

    bert, Director, Sheboygan County Plan-

    ning and Resources Department,

    at 920-459-3765.

    County to stopcollecting hazardouswastes for 2009

    The Sheboygan County Planning and

    Resources Department must stop collect-

    ing hazardous wastes from County resi-

    dents for the rest of 2009. The halt in the

    collection of hazardous waste results

    from the loss of State funding and be-

    cause of the extraordinary amount of

    hazardous wastes collected during May.

    There is a possibility that some State

    funding will be restored to Sheboygan

    County later this year. If that proves to

    be the case and there is sufficient funding

    for another collection event, there will be

    announcements to that effect.

    During the May Clean Sweep, homes,

    small businesses, and farms delivered

    35,447 pounds of hazardous wastes in-

    cluding 1,789 pounds of aerosol cans,

    5,553 pounds of pesticides, 18,789

    pounds of oil and lead based paint, 1,800

    pounds of fluorescent lights, and 3,753

    pounds of electronic wastes.

    The annual Countywide collection of

    waste medications is slated for October

    3 and this event will go on as scheduled.

    A permanent waste medication drop off

    box will also be located soon in the She-

    boygan Police Department.

    Take a tour of Piccadilly Street for English Teaduring August tea classSheboygan Falls, WI -- On Saturday, Au-

    gust 8 the Atrium Tea Room in Sheboy-

    gan Falls will host their monthly tea class

    titled “Piccadilly Tea.” This class will

    combine education about English teas

    with a tourist perspective of famous stops

    on Piccadilly Street. The class will begin

    at 11:30 a.m. and run through 1:00 p.m.

    The English enjoy both High Tea and

    Afternoon Tea. High Tea is almost a

    fourth meal, occuring after the work day,

    and includes tea and sandwiches. After-

    noon Tea, a light snack accompanied by

    fresh brewed tea, takes place earlier in the

    afternoon and is more about elegance.

    In keeping with the tradition of an

    English tea, there will be a presentation

    of food that pairs with each of the teas to

    be sampled. Traditionally, this comes in

    courses and consists of: first course, sa-

    vories of finger sandwiches or appetizers;

    second course, breads including scones;

    and third course, dessert of delicate pas-

    tries like eclairs, small thumbprint cook-

    ies, and shortbreads.

    Piccadilly is one of the most fashion-

    able areas of London and home to a num-

    ber of well known tea rooms and historic

    hotels that have tea service. Tradition, el-

    egance, style, luxury, and relaxation are

    all synonymous with the English tradition

    of tea. Class attendees are encouraged to

    continue that stylish tradition and “get

    dressed up” for the class.

    Attendees of prior classes have en-

    joyed this option to enhance the experi-

    ence. The “Piccadilly Tea” class will be

    conducted by tea artisans Martha Vande

    Leest and Kathryn Schwark and will in-

    clude samplings of teas and three cuisine

    courses. Recipes and handouts are in-

    cluded. Cost is $25 and prepayment is

    preferred; however, a spot can be reserved

    by providing a credit card number. The

    class is limited to twelve participants.

    Class attendees receive a discount on

    merchandise throughout the store on Au-

    gust 8. Anyone who attends five tea

    classes will receive a free teapot.

    The “Piccadilly Tea” class will be held

    on August 8 at the Atrium Tea Room, lo-

    cated in Richardson’s Furniture Empo-

    rium at 202 Pine Street in Sheboygan

    Senior citizen volunteerssought for “Seniors andLaw Enforcement Together” programSubmitted by Joan Scheppmann

    This letter is to familiarize you

    with Sheboygan County TRIAD.

    It is not a request for money.

    TRIAD is a service organization

    comprised of senior citizens, Sher-

    iff’s Department deputies and the

    sheriff, and police officers. Some

    of the more popular service pro-

    grams sponsored by TRIAD are

    the Courthouse Greeters program,

    the Senior Winterization program,

    and the File of Life program.

    TRIAD is also active at the She-

    boygan County Fair, and has give

    out hundreds of refrigerator mag-

    nets.

    The problem is not things to do,

    but rather people to do them. We

    are looking for seniors interested

    in being a volunteer for this

    worthwhile organization. While

    the Sheboygan County TRIAD

    has been operating since 1996,

    many seniors have never heard of

    TRIAD.

    The Sheboygan County

    TRIAD meets once a month in

    different communities to discuss

    ongoing programs, and to plan

    new ones. There are no dues or

    membership fees, and all you need

    to join is a willingness to be a vol-

    unteer for community service. If

    you would like to know more

    about this worthwhile organiza-

    tion, call any police agency in the

    county or the Sheboygan County

    Sheriff’s Department, and you

    will be directed to the agency

    The Kohler Cub Scout Pack 3831 We-

    belos attended Camp Twin Lakes near

    Waupaca, Wisconsin from July 22 to 25.

    This is a camp program specifically tai-

    lored to the needs and wants of the older

    boys in the Cub Scout pack – those enter-

    ing the fourth and fifth grades.

    The daily activities featured structured

    time where the boys received instruction

    in pursuit of earning pins such as Ready-

    man (first aid), Outdoorsman, Forester,

    Aquanat, Naturalist, Showman, Geolo-

    gist, and Sportsman. Additionally, each

    afternoon the boys had three hours of

    “open programming” where they could

    choose to participate in a variety of activ-

    ities including archery, BB gun shooting,

    badmitton, volleyball, swimming, boat-

    ing, leather working, and more. They

    also prepared and cooked a lunchtime

    meal over a campfire.

    In addition to the enjoyment of partic-

    ipating in events as a group, the Cub

    Scouts focus on citizenship training, char-

    acter development, and personal fitness –

    “Fun with a purpose!” Scouting helps

    boys to foster a sense of personal achieve-

    ment and develop new interests and skills,

    and at the same time enhances communi-

    cation and understanding within the fam-

    ily.

    Pack 3831 is chartered through the

    Kohler Police Athletic League, and

    tourdeRoadAmerica2009 set for August 14

    The tourdeRoadAmerica takes place

    on Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin's beautiful

    Road America circuit in support of the

    Lance Armstrong Foundation and the

    millions of people whose lives are af-

    fected by cancer. The 2009 tourdeRoad-

    America will be Friday evening, August

    14 during the Road Race Showcase

    weekend featuring the American Le

    Mans Series.

    The tourdeRoadAmerica is a family-

    friendy bicycle ride. After auto racing is

    done for the day, drivers from elite racing

    series will join team members, series per-

    sonnel, families, friends, fans, local cy-

    clists, and cancer survivors for a fun ride

    on the track. Our goal is to annually raise

    at least $40,000 to help people survive

    cancer. Each lap of Road America is 4.0

    miles, and riders can ride one lap, or keep

    pedaling until track officials declare it

    “too dark to ride.” Top cyclists can poten-

    tially get in up to 40 miles.

    In addition to the ride, the event fea-

    tures Silent Auction of cycling, motor-

    sports memorabilia, local items, and

    more – all benefiting the Lance Arm-

    strong Foundation. A tourdeRoadAmer-

    ica reception will take place before the

    ride. Donations are always appreciated

    whether participating in the ride or not.

    �OXIOUS WEEDS/GRASS LE�GTH:

    According to Village Ordinance 8.24, it is

    the duty of every homeowner to destroy all

    noxious weeds on their property before

    they go to seed. Examples of noxious

    weeds are Canadian thistle, English char-

    lock, wild mustard, creeping jenny, goats-

    beard and cotton-bearing trees.

    Also, grass that exceeds nine inches in

    height is in violation of this ordinance. The

    Village gives five days notice to the home-

    owner to mow their grass. Otherwise, the

    Village will do it at the expense of the

    homeowner.

    HOLIDAY GARBAGE PICK-UP

    When a holiday falls on a Monday all

    garbage pick-ups will be one day later than

    scheduled. For example, Labor Day falls

    on Monday, Sept. 7; therefore garbage

    pick-up for that week will be on Wednes-

    day, Sept. 9th.

    As a reminder, all plastics, glass, aluminum

    and tin cans should be mixed together and

    3873 for forms and to schedule an appoint-

    FROM POLICE CHIEF

    BILL RUTTE�

    Sexual Offender Ordinances: The Vil-

    lage recently enacted new ordinances that

    restrict certain convicted sex offenders

    within the Village of Kohler. The Village

    has set a limit on residing in the Village

    within 1500 feet of a park, school, or

    church. In addition, sexual offenders can-

    not loiter within 500 feet of those same lo-

    cations. The Kohler Police Department has

    a link on our website to a pdf file that

    shows those designated areas. In addition,

    the Kohler Police Department has regis-

    tered on the website (http://www.family-

    watchdog.us/) connected to the State of

    Wisconsin’s site that will notify us in the

    event a sexual offender moves into the

    area. If you have questions or concerns,

    please call.

    Stop Sign Violations: The definition of a

    stop by state statutes is “a complete cessa-

    tion from movement”. This allows for the

    driver to properly check for other traffic

    and pedestrians. The Kohler Police Dept.

    has been stepping up enforcement of stop

    signs as a way to educate the public that

    slowing down at stops signs is not stop-

    ping. The vast majority of the stops have

    been for warnings, but some citations have

    been issued, depending on the circum-

    stances. Also, most of the stops are by

    people that live nearby. If you have not

    been stopped by an officer, you are proba-

    bly stopping properly. The stop signs can

    be a pain, but they are there for our safety.

    Parking Complaints: Occasionally the

    Kohler Police Department will receive

    complaints about parking problems

    throughout the Village. Typically neigh-

    bors don’t want to complain directly to

    their fellow neighbor, but call our depart-

    ment with questions or to start a complaint.

    Parking is restricted near the Kohler Co. to

    one-hour and two-hour parking. The only

    exception is for residents of the Village of

    Kohler. All others must abide by the re-

    striction. The rest of the Village has a re-
