SHAWANO LEADER Hippe finds wild adventures right in her own backyard

Hobby farm works toward self-sufficiency

By MIRIAM NELSON

ELAND — Some people travel the world in search of adventure, and others find it in their own backyards.

Andrea Hippe is finding the fulfill-ment of living her best life as she homeschools her twins and raises animals on her family’s hobby farm.

To become more self-sufficient, the stay-at-home mom says they are raising ducks, chickens, geese and goats. New this year, they’ve also decided to raise pigs. She said she’s gotten a lot of their information from the internet; other knowledge they’ve had to learn firsthand. This sum-mer, the family planted pumpkins and squash in the garden solely to provide food for their pigs.

“You really don’t save money raising your own pigs,” said Hippe, who has a pair of pigs being fed and fattened to eventually provide meat for the family.

Goats are a different story, ac-cording to Hippe. By breeding and selling baby goats and turning one goat’s milk into soaps, she said she makes enough money to pay for their hay and oats.

Her production of goat soaps, which she says is still in the hobby stage, has nonetheless allowed her to attend several craft fairs. The past two weekends, she has been at local fairs and has done quite well in sell-ing her products.

A customer of hers had come to Wittenberg from Green Bay just to purchase more of her soap. Hippe met the customer at the Shawano Folk Festival in August a couple of years ago when she was a vendor at the event.

Hippe makes her soap with goat milk and lye, using essential oils for scents. She makes about 30 different scented soaps. Some of the scents are re-created as popular mixes used in diffusers, but sometimes it takes a bit of adjusting to get the right scent.

Hippe notes that others who make goat soap use mostly water and only a small amount of goat’s milk. She chooses to use all goat milk because she feels the end product has better moisturizing properties.

Clarey is the name of the only milker in her herd of goats. She produces a gallon a day. Some of that goes to feed the family in the form of kefir, soft cheese, caramel sauce or drinking milk; the rest gets turned into soap.

Hippe has two male goats and six females, which are bred and their offspring sold as pets. Males go for $125, and females go for $150. She

raises Nubian and Nigerian Dwarf goats. She says there are other goat breeds that would be good for meat, but she will probably never raise any of those since she views her goats as pets.

Hippe and her husband, Matthew, also butcher their own chickens and ducks. They’ve learned a few hard lessons along the way. She noted that ducks need to be butchered at a certain time of year or you‘ll end up spending a lot of time plucking out the tiny feathers.

“I was up very late one night plucking the ducks, only to discover we don’t like the taste of duck,” said

Andrea Hippe feeds the pigs that are new this year to her family’s hobby farm. She and her husband, Matthew, also raise goats, chickens, ducks and geese.

Hippe, amused by the revelation.Hippe said they do like the eggs the

ducks produce as they are more nutri-tious than chicken eggs and are really good for baking.

In between caring for her barnyard full of animals, Hippe also home-schools her 7-year-old twins, Fenton and Silas. With a degree in educa-

tional interpreting, she has been doing sign language in schools for 12 years.

When the boys were born, she decided to stay at home until they were able to go to 4-year-old kinder-garten, but when they were struggling in kindergarten, she decided since she had the qualifications and experience in teaching, she would homeschool

them. She noted there is also a very good home educator group in Wit-tenberg.

The farm sits on just 3.5 acres and was Hippe’s family homestead. Her parents never had animals, so there was a lot of work that needed to be done to transform it into a hobby farm.

Before they could entertain the thought of raising animals, the couple needed to clear some of the land, which was overgrown with trees, vines and bushes. They built a barn to house the goats and fenced in the area around it. She realizes however, that they made more work for themselves

by not having one end of the barn outside the fence and nearer to the driveway to make it easier to unload and store hay.

Next summer, Hippe plans to have a larger garden and jokes that the twins will hopefully become better weeders to help out.

Although the idea of becoming self-sufficient and go entirely off the grid is appealing, she believes that would require a move to a warmer climate — a move they’re not yet ready to make.

Hippe can be reached at 715-432-9155 or [email protected].

Chasing chickens is part of the fun of living on a farm. Seven-year-old Fenton enjoys life on the Hippe Homestead, just south of Eland.

ABOVE: Jon Phillips, one of the owners of Reindeer Games, shares a reindeer antler with members of the crowd. According to Phillips, one of the owners of the deer, even young reindeer have dramatic antlers, and they get thicker and heavier as the deer get older. Reindeer shed their antlers annually. Reindeer Games shares the experience of seeing the small, elk-like deer with very dramatic antlers at events throughout Wisconsin. Visitors could view the reindeer in pens or have their picture taken in a Santa-style sleigh.

Antlers aweigh


CLINTONVILLE — For some fami-lies, it’s not always easy to keep up on paying for school lunches, and some fall behind.

When the debt builds enough, the school will usually take action — whether it’s just a cold sandwich or another alternative. When that hap-pens, some students feel ostracized.

In the Clintonville School District, one business owner decided he was going to help most of the families in his community that have fallen behind. On Friday, during the com-munity’s annual tree lighting cer-emony, Jeremy Lewallen, owner of Jeremy’s Tree Service, set up an old butter churn for community mem-bers to donate money toward those meal debts. He promised to match those donations, dollar for dollar, up to $2,000.

Lewallen checked with the district in early November and found that $4,100 was owed at the time in meal payments, which is what prompted him to set his goal. Final numbers on what was collected were unavailable by press time.

“I wanted to do something good for the city, and I wanted to do something that directly affected the city,” Lewallen said. “Everyone wants to do something for hunger, and this is something that isn’t ordi-narily done.”

Lewallen noted that some of the families who owe for meals make too much money to qualify for free and reduced meals but still are living paycheck to paycheck.

“They don’t make enough money to cover all those expenses in life, and one of those expenses is school lunches,” Lewallen said. “They’re right in the middle, and those are the people we are targeting to help.”

Lewallen said he was fortunate enough to be raised in a family that could afford school meals, but he chose the issue as his way of paying it forward to thank the community for supporting his business, which began three years ago.

He added that he hopes to con-tinue to give back to the community, although perhaps not always by

paying off student meals. If Lewallen learns of a more urgent need, he said he plans to switch gears.

“I just know the importance of do-ing good,” Lewallen said. “You help when you can help.”

David Dyb, the district’s super-intendent, was very appreciative of Lewallen’s generosity and thanked him right after the lights went on for the community Christmas tree, which Lewallen also sponsored.

“I think this is a wonderful and generous thing he’s doing,” Dyb said. “This is just an example of the

Clintonville community stepping up to help everyone in our community at this time of year.”

Dyb noted that about 60% of the district’s elementary students qualify for free and reduced-price meals, with a lower number of middle and high school students also qualify-ing. He encouraged the families who are falling behind to check with the district to see if their income levels qualify them for the service, as the district receives aid to pay for those meals based on the number of stu-dents who meet the criteria.

Rep. Gary Tauchen, R-Bonduel, introduced Assembly Bill 84 earlier this year, which addressed student meal debts. Besides forbidding “lunch shaming,” which happens when students are publicly called out

because families are behind in paying for meals, the bill would also allow any donations to pay off meal debts to be tax deductible.

The bill was introduced by the Assembly Education Committee in May and a public hearing was held, according to Tauchen spokesman Craig Arrowood, but there has been no action on it since then.

Dyb said he has not read the proposed bill, but he wants anything that is beneficial to students to move forward and succeed.

“Anything that I think would be in support of our students and families should definitely be taken in a posi-tive light,” Dyb said. “Let’s see how this unfolds.”

FYIFor those who would like to help Lewallen help

the students in Clintonville School District pay off meal debts, he is accepting donations by mail at N10780 County Road Y, Clintonville, WI 54929.

OBITUARIESGordon A. James Sr.

Gordon A. James Sr., 73, of Kesh-ena, began his journey to the spirit world Wednesday, Dec. 4, 2019, at ThedaCare Medical Center-Shawano.

Gordon was born July 28, 1946, in Keshena to the late Dennison and Mary Jane (Askenette) James Sr. He attended the Shawano elementary and middle schools, receiving his GED later in life. On March 26, 1969, he was united in marriage to Leone Wilber in Gresham.

Gordy was a hardworking man. He worked at the Neenah Foundry for a few years, followed by a long and distinguished career at Menominee Tribal Enterprises. Gordy retired in August 2018, hav-ing worked for 43 years and hold-ing most of the positions MTE had to offer. He was also on the board of directors for MTE for many years.

Gordy was a lifelong, faithful member of St. Anthony’s Catho-lic Church in Neopit. He served

on the parish council and was known for being at church long before anyone else arrived. Gordy was also a member of the Knights of Columbus. In

his younger years, he was known for having good moving feet in the boxing ring, as he was named a Golden Glove Boxer. He was also talented on the dance floor.

Gordy was a loving family man who enjoyed playing bingo on Sun-days with his daughters, fishing on Evergreen Stream with his sons or sitting outside on a swing with his wife of 50 years, reminiscing. They used to sneak away for an evening in Carter to have dinner and gam-ble, or to spend time at the James’ family lake lot. He loved watching the Packers. Now whether that was a good thing, his family would probably beg to differ. The most

important thing to Gordy was hav-ing his family close and together as much as possible, especially during the holidays.

Left to cherish his memory are his wife, Leone; his children, Gor-don Pocan, Gordon James Jr., Rich-ard James, Marlin James, Karen (Jeremy Penass) James, Denise (Steve) Crowe, Pat Peters, Randy (Rose) Peters and Kandi Peters; 40 grandchildren; 42 great-grandchil-dren; godchildren, Dyan Anderson and Jeff Wilber Sr.; his son-in-law, Joseph Peters; his siblings, Karen Wilber, Melvin “Mousie” (Sherry) James, Robert “Bobby” James, An-thony “Smelly” James, Diane (John “Lunchie”) Boivin, David (Bridgett) James, Stanley “Bull” (Patti) James and Glenda (Dale) Kaquatosh; and many nieces, nephews, relatives and friends.

Gordy was preceded in death by his daughter, Jessie James; son, Tra-cy Peters; granddaughters, Gwend-lyn and Amber Peters, and Christy Kiny; grandson, Albert “Mothers”

Peters Jr.; sister, Violet “Jitter” (Robert) Tucker Sr.; brothers, Den-nison “Tonto” James Jr., Marvin “Joe Brown” James and Richard James; brothers-in-law, Clifford Wilber and William “Snooky” Wil-ber; and his special aunt, Josephine “Baby Girl” Askenette.

A funeral Mass for Gordon A. James Sr. will be celebrated Wednesday, Dec. 11, 2019, at 11 a.m. at St. Anthony’s Catholic Church in Neopit. The Rev. Joel Jores will be the celebrant. Visitation began Monday, Dec. 9, 2019, after 4 p.m. at the Neopit Community Center and will continue until the time of Mass on Wednesday.

Mickelson Funeral and Crema-tion Service of Shawano is assist-ing the family with arrangements. Please share online condolences at www.mickelsonfs.com.

Robert ‘Bob’ Hanke

Robert “Bob” Hanke, of Apple-ton, went to play golf on the greenest fairway of all and to sing with the choir of angels at the 19th hole. A wonderful tenor voice, he joined the Lord’s Choir on Dec. 2, 2019, when he passed peacefully at Cherry Meadows Hospice in Apple-ton, surrounded by his family.

Bob was born Oct. 9, 1935, in Shawano to William and Albertina (Wolff) Hanke. He attended Wit-tenberg High School, where he met Elaine Day, his wife of 65 years. They married in October 1954.

Bob worked at the former Gil-bert Paper Company in Neenah for many years, where he served as

union president for many years, until retirement in 1994. After re-tiring, they spent many winters in Arizona where Bob was able to enjoy golf, his fa-vorite sport, and

softball, avoiding the cold in Wis-consin. Bob enjoyed playing cards. Sheepshead was his favorite game, and he was known to “place a bet” on anything for fun and challenge.

Bob had a beautiful voice and sang for many funerals and wed-dings. At one time, he sang with

the McDowell Chorus. He also sang with the Y-Nots of Neenah/Mena-sha, joined by Elaine and others, visiting nursing homes and assisted living facilities, to entertain resi-dents.

Bob is survived by his wife, Elaine; his son, Shane; and two granddaughters, Rhiannon Hanke (Joey Sanborn) and Katelyn Flat-off (Travis). He leaves two great-grandsons, Eli and Orlen Flatoff. He is further survived by one sister, Jane Wendler, of Wittenberg; sev-eral sisters- and brothers-in-law, Marvel Adams, Sharon Wright, Lois Karpf, Dan and Kristy Day, Ken and Lynda Day, Warren and Deb Day, Larry and Mary Day and Carla Day Johnson. He leaves numerous nieces and nephews and great-niec-es and great-nephews who will all miss “Uncle Bob.”

He will be missed by his buddies, Drake, Wally and Mike, Norbie and Rich.

Bob was preceded in death by his parents, William and Albertina Hanke; sisters, Dorothy Mathison, Ruth Barnowski and Patsy Siebert; and brothers, Melvin, Roger, George and Donald “Pete” Hanke. He was also preceded in death by three brothers-in-law, Leonard

Adams, Bill Wright and Kenneth Karpf.

He was preceded in death by his daughter in 1989. Colleen, 32, died of a brain aneurysm. Fortunate peo-ple received organ transplants from Colleen’s untimely death and organ donation, due to the family’s gener-ous spirit. Meeting the recipients and having some as a second family pleased Bob. A daughter born to that family is named Colleen.

A private service will be held at a future date.

The family wishes to thank the staff at AMC in Appleton and Cherry Meadows Hospice for their loving and compassionate care and comfort in Bob’s final days.

God knew he was suffering, knew he was in pain. He knew that he would never get well on earth again. He saw the road rough and the hills hard to climb, he closed his eyes, whispered softly, “Is it time?” Our hearts are broken, now he’s gone, but he didn’t go alone. Part of us went with him, when God called him home.

TIGERTON — The trees are trimmed in Tigerton, and now it’s up to the public to determine which creations will top the nice list.

The community’s Festival of Trees, sponsored by Tigerton Main Street, started Friday with carols, a visit from favorite “Grinch” characters and 22 Christmas trees decorated by various businesses, nonprof-its and school groups. Voting on the trees, which will be up until Christmas, runs through Dec. 18.

“It’s fun to watch people come in and decorate a tree,” said Andrea Graham, Tigerton Main Street manager. “There are so many different ideas, and the same ones come year after year.”

The trees are available for viewing at Tigerton’s 1905 Village Hall, 215 Cedar St., weekday mornings from 8 a.m. to noon, as well as Friday, Saturday and Sunday eve-

nings. The voting this year will fall under four categories — Best School Tree, Best Theme (business or nonprofit), Most Cre-ative and overall Best of Show, Graham said. Gifts will be awarded to the top vote-getters in each category.

Carolers from Tigerton High School kicked off Friday’s festivities. After the trees and the Christmas village were lit, children and families went upstairs to meet Mr. Grinch and Cindy Lou Who of Dr. Seuss fame. In addition to posing for photos, the kids were able to participate in other activi-ties, color Grinch bookmarks and enjoy some snacks.

Those who missed the festivities can still check out and vote on the decorated trees. The local chapter of TOPS (Take Off Pounds Sensibly) contributed a tree featur-ing super fruits and vegetables — complete with capes, eyes and “S” crests. A “Blue Christmas” tree pays homage to the late Elvis Presley, while a plumed peacock tree with a chicken wire skirt was decorated by Anita Kernen, owner of Anita Haircut.

Nineteen additional trees and more Christmas decorations are available for viewing. For information, call the Tigerton Main Street office at 715-535-2110.

Deklan Arndt is amazed by the Christmas village, particularly the fact that it even had snowmobiles. He was among the visitors at the opening of the festival on Friday. The village is one of the displays at the annual Tigerton Festival of Trees. The event opened on Saturday and continues through Christmas, with voting on the trees closing on Dec. 18.

The annual Festival of Trees is just one of the events on the calendar for Tigerton Main Street, an organiza-tion that is part of the Wisconsin Economic Develop-ment Corp.’s downtown improvement program.

“We are the smallest community in the Main Street program,” said Andrea Graham, Tigerton Main Street manager. “There are 32 communities in all; we compete against places like Fond du lac, Wausau and Milwau-kee.”

Tigerton was chosen as a Main Street Community in 1993. One of program’s early projects was refurbish-ing the old Village Hall, which had fallen into disrepair. Built in 1905, at one time it housed the fire department and the jail. Today, Graham holds office hours there, and the space is available for rent. It’s also the site of the current Festival of Trees and the annual Fourth of July block party.

“We don’t have the money like larger communities for face lifting,” Graham said. “But we just keep pushing. Plus, the volunteers in Tigerton are great.”

Tigerton Main Street named James and Brenda Gauthier as this year’s volunteers of the year, Graham said. Additionally, corporate sponsor of the year went to Kathy Robbins, president at First National Bank.

Another fundraiser for Tigerton Main Street is the soup cook-off, which will be Jan. 26. Due to the space needed for that event, it will be held at the Tigerton Community Center. Soups are judged in different cat-egories.

The community park is the site of the Taste of Ti-gerton’s Applefest, which has gotten bigger every year and will be held Sept. 26 next year. It features vendors, crafts and an apple pie contest.

Graham is not only the Tigerton Main Street man-ager. She also serves as village president and on the ambulance board of directors. Soon, she and her fam-ily plan to open a new business called Graham’s Sweet Shop. It is located across the street from the old Village Hall and will sell ice cream. The refurbished building at one time held a store called Sweet Shop, which is how the new name was chosen.

“It’s taken a bit longer than we thought it would,” Graham said. “But we are excited to have it open early next year.”

THEME: HAPPY HOLIDAYSACROSS

DOWN

PUZZLES


Now that the winter season has officially arrived and the snow is beginning to accumulate in our yards and gardens, it is time to prepare valuable trees and shrubs for the rest of the winter.

Garden trees and shrubs that are especially valu-able and used as specimen plants in the yard and garden should be protected from a variety of winter hazards. Perhaps the most de-structive is dam-age caused by hungry rodents, such as rabbits

and voles.Rabbits and voles may cause

girdling damage to decorative trees and shrubs. Girdling is where is the entire base of the trunk of the plant is debarked, or gnawed completely bare around the entire perimeter. This is destructive to the plant because valuable nutrients are car-ried through this bark layer. Once it is completely removed around the entire base of the tree, the plant has a hard time recovering and will potentially die off within a season or two.

Another potential hazard is feed-ing by deer. Deer can cause extensive damage in a short period of time if they move into the yard or garden and begin to nibble away at twigs and branches loaded with buds already for the spring season.

While in some cases, a little natu-ral pruning is fine, feeding deer can do quite a bit of damage to expensive specimen plants that are not protect-ed from their feeding activity.

There are a variety of options for protecting trees and shrubs from feeding wildlife. Tree guards, tree wraps and caging are among the most popular. These options come in a number of styles and forms; you can either purchase premade guards and wraps or create your own from items you may have around the home.

Tree guards are often made out of plastic or PVC and are a popular and easy-to-install choice for valuable trees in the garden, as well as newly planted trees that need protection for their first few years while the base of the trunk is young and tender.

It is important that the guard is sufficient in length, or height. Many people install tree guards that are much too short. For maximum pro-tection, estimate how deep the snow will be around the tree, then be sure your tree guard stands a minimum of 18 inches above that anticipated snow line. Three feet higher than the snow line is a much better safety

measure.Tree guards can be installed at

the time of planting and left in place during all four seasons for further protection from feeding rodents. Or they can be installed anytime for seasonal protection from wildlife.

Some tree guards are flexible and can remain on the tree for many years. Others, however, are rigid and

must be removed or replaced as the tree continues to grow.

Another option for winter pro-tection is to install tree wrapping around the base of the tree or shrub. Tree wraps are available in a variety of materials including metallic foil, corrugated plastic and heavy duty tape. These wraps are easy to install as you simply wrap them around the tree to a desired height for protec-tion from gnawing rodents. Follow the label instructions for proper at-tachment. Some varieties are adhe-sive while others are not.

Installing wire cages around trees or shrubs is another option for pro-tecting from predators. Caging can be done seasonally before the snow begins to pile up, or left permanently until the plant is large enough to withstand feeding wildlife.

You can purchase premade plant cages, or create your own out of a variety of wire materials and hard-ware cloth. For vole protection, it is important to use the smallest wire mesh possible when installing a cage around the base of the tree or shrub. For rabbits, wire mesh or chicken wire with smaller openings is sufficient. Deer caging must be of sufficient height to protect the plant from hungry deer. Generally, this is at least 6-8 feet, depending upon the type of plant.

In some cases, notably some co-nifers, loosely wrapping the plant in burlap offers protection against deer, as well as against the desiccating potential from the winter sun.

There are gardeners out there who swear by the use of cut up soap chunks, especially Irish Spring, or mesh bags filled with dog or horse hair hung from valuable trees and shrubs in the garden for protection from deer and rabbits during winter. Use these methods at your own risk, preferably in combination with cages or wrapping in case they are not dependable.

There are also a number of re-pellents on the market, from gran-ules to sprays to sonic repellents to keep feeding rodents and deer at bay during the winter season. A physical barrier always offers more reliable protection as some of the others need to be reapplied fre-

Take proactive approach to protect trees

Tree guards come in a number of different styles and can be used for trees of various sizes and ages.

Green Bay grinds out win over Washington

S P O RT S

GREEN BAY — It wasn’t pretty, but the Green Bay Packers took down the Washington Redskins 20-15 on Sunday at Lambeau Field.

The Packers jumped out to an early 14-0 lead and looked to be on their way to a rout, but then things ground to a halt.

Green Bay’s offense posted 111 total yards of offense in the first quarter, but finished the day with just 341 yards. The Packers’ defense surrendered just 12 yards while forc-ing three straight three-and-outs to open the game, but the lowly Red-skins were able to put scoring drives together on three of their final six possessions.

Even though it wasn’t the greatest of wins, the victory gave Green Bay 10 for the season and kept it atop the NFC North.

“We’ll never apologize for win-ning, we’re always going to feel great about winning,” said coach Matt LaFleur, who became the first coach in franchise history to win 10 games in their first season with the Packers. “But you always want to go out there and put your best performance out there. You know, I think there was more out there today for us.”

It was a total team effort that got the Packers off to a fast start in the first quarter.

Washington started the game with the football, but the Packers’ defense stuffed a pair of runs before Kenny Clark and Kyler Fackrell teamed up to sack Washington quarterback Dwayne Haskins on third down.

On the ensuing punt, the Packers found life in their return game as the newly-signed Tyler Ervin gained 10 yards and set the Packers up at midfield.

It took the Packers’ offense seven plays to go 50 yards and take the lead. Quarterback Aaron Rodgers hit tight end Jimmy Graham for a 20-

yard completion on the first play of the drive before Rodgers scrambled for 13 yards on a third-and-six play.

Running back Aaron Jones capped the drive with a 4-yard touchdown — his 12th rushing score on the season and 15th overall.

After the Packers forced two more three-and-outs, the Packers ex-tended their lead with another quick scoring drive. Rodgers hit Graham on a 25-yard pass to get things going before Jones broke free for runs of 16 and 12 yards to get the Pack into the red zone.

Rodgers finished off the five-play, 57-yard drive with a 12-yard touchdown pass to tight end Robert Tonyan to make it 14-0.

Outside linebacker Preston Smith sacked Haskins to end the next Red-skins’ drive, and Jones opened the Packers’ possession with a 42-yard run, but the drive stalled and Green Bay was forced to punt.

Washington then put together an 11-play, 95-yard drive to tighten the game up (14-6, after Dustin Hopkins missed the extra point).

Green Bay’s offense looked to be on its way to a touchdown drive of its own, but Rodgers had the ball stripped away while being sacked.

The Packers’ defense kept the lead at eight going into halftime af-ter safety Adrian Amos intercepted a pass.

“It’s always good, you know, elim-inating points,” said Amos. “That’s always good. It’s always big to get turnovers in situations like (the) end of the half and end of the game, and in the red zone. Those are the three big times when you need stops.”

Green Bay upped its lead to 11 af-ter a 32-yard Mason Crosby field goal to end the team’s first drive of the second half. After that score, the of-fense went into another rut until the 10-minute mark of the fourth quarter.

Up 17-9, the Packers put together a 14-play, 74-yard drive that set up a Crosby 33-yard field goal that looked to be the final touch to Green Bay’s win.

Instead, Washington drove 75 yards in eight plays and scored a touchdown to keep hope alive. The Packers finally finished off their win by stopping the two-point conver-sion and then recovering an onside kick.

“Winning’s the only thing that matters, and even in the midst of some of these games where it hasn’t been a great flow (on offense) the

entire time, we are winning, so that’s the encouraging thing,” said Rodgers, who finished with just 195 passing yards. “We expect to win games where our defense holds them to less than 20 points, but we’ll find our rhythm — I’m not worried about that on offense.”

Jones was the team’s leading rusher and receiver, finishing with 192 total scrimmage yards. He car-ried the ball 16 times for 134 yards (8.4-yard average) and caught six passes for 58 yards.

Jones hauled in a key 25-yard pass on a third-and-14 play to extend the Packers’ final scoring drive.

Graham finished with three catches for 49 yards, while Davante Adams was limited to 41 yards on four catches. No other Packers’ wideout had over 19 receiving yards.

Blake Martinez led the defense with 10 total tackles while Clark had 1½ of the team’s four sacks. Along the Amos’ interception, the de-fense forced two other fumbles, but couldn’t recover either.

Green Bay will stay in town to take on the Chicago Bears at Lam-beau next Sunday.

SHAWANO — The Shawano Community High School boys basketball team opened its regular season with a pair of tight wins and looked to be on its way to a third on Friday with Pulaski in town.

Instead, Shawano dominated the second half, outscoring Pulaski 33-12 in the final 18 minutes to pull away for a 69-42 nonconference victory.

Shawano held a 36-30 lead com-ing out of halftime before senior big man Carter Weisnicht took over. Weisnicht, who finished the game with 29 points, scored 12 of the team’s first 13 points in the second half to help Shawano go up 49-30.

Weisnicht converted three shots near the basket before burying two 3-pointers, which had the crowd buzzing and the bench fired up.

“It felt good. I mean, I haven’t

had the best first two games, so it felt good to go out there and get my teammates some shots, get my own (shots) and contribute to the team and get a good win,” said Weisnicht.

Senior Brayden Dickelman added a field goal on a fastbreak chance to cap the Hawks’ 15-0 run to start the half.

Pulaski wasn’t able to trim its deficit below 16 points the rest of the way. A 3-pointer from the Red Raiders made it 59-42 with about five minutes to go before Shawano senior Sam Schulze sealed up the win.

Schulze, who hadn’t scored in the contest up to that point, tallied the final 10 points for the Hawks. He hit two 3-pointers and then added four points from the free throw line after grabbing a pair of offensive rebounds and getting fouled.

Schulze was one of several Hawks to make an impact in the game, something coach David Am-brosius loves about the team.

“We knew going in (to the sea-son) that we were going to have a lot of guys that could go out there and contribute so that played a big

factor in how we wanted to design both our offense and defense and how we wanted to play this year,” said Ambrosius. “Obviously, we have all the confidence in the world with the guys that we put out there, that they’re going to be able to get the job done. Tonight was just an-other example.”

Eight of Shawano’s 10 players that played scored, with senior Nick Sherman scoring 15 points to join Weisnicht and Schulze in double figures.

Weisnicht’s 14 points and Sher-man’s 10 led an efficient Hawks’ offense in the first half, but the Red Raiders knocked down seven 3-pointers to keep things close.

Shawano turned up its intensity on defense to stifle Pulaski in the second half.

“Pulaski is really, really good. They got some guys that can really shoot the basketball, so what we saw in the first half was not surprising by any stretch of the imagination,” said Ambrosius.

“I thought our kids did a really good job of taking the adjustments

we made at halftime. We really turned up the defensive pressure, and in doing so, the tempo picked up a little bit and we started to play our tempo of basketball.”

The win moved the Hawks to 3-0 on the season.

“It’s been a lot of fun,” said Sher-man on the start to the season. “All of us guys are really close — it’s like family, we’re brothers. We have a lot of fun in practice, we have a lot of fun in games. We just got to bring the energy and that’s what we’re doing. We want to play defense and want to play fast and bring that energy and show every team that we can do it.”

BOWLER — The Bowler High School boys basketball embarked on the winter season with a young roster and under the direction of a new coach. Senior Zach Fehrman has helped ease the team into the season.

Fehrman serves as a leader for the Panthers, both in games and in practice.

“Zach brings tremendous energy and leadership to our team,” said first-year Bowler coach Ted Kietlins-ki. “Perhaps Zach’s greatest quality is that he remains upbeat even during the most trying of game situations. We are a young squad this year, but Zach is always a positive influence in working with our underclassmen.”

Fehrman can knock down the 3-point shot, but also isn’t afraid to drive to the basket. He is also a strong defender, both on the ball and on the boards.

The senior guided Bowler past Tigerton in a Central Wisconsin Conference-North Division contest on Thursday, scoring 26 points in the team’s 80-62 win.

Q: When did your interest in basketball begin?

A: When I was in about third grade I had an interest in basketball but I didn’t really get into it until I started Gresham Booster Ball (that year). Ever since then, I’ve wanted to be the best that I can be.

Q: What is your favorite part about the basketball season?

A: Spending time with my team on and off the court. Also, when I am able to have a really good game in front of our home crowd.

Q: How did you prepare for the basketball season?

A: Playing soccer is kind of my

way of preparing for the basketball season. Other than that, I don’t really prepare for the season.

Q: With the season just getting rolling, what has the team learned about itself so far?

A: That we have to push the other team on every play and we have to get offensive and defensive rebounds. We also have to be making a lot of our shots and can’t make any dumb turnovers.

Q: As one of the few seniors on the team, how do you plan to help lead the team?

A: One of the main ways is show-ing a good example and helping develop some of the younger players. I also plan to keep the team on track during practice.

Q: What’s your favorite mem-ory of competing on the Bowler boys basketball team?

A: Probably the time I was walk-ing back to the school after eating at Bonnie’s Place and a group of boys from the team grabbed me and threw me in the trunk of their vehicle. That is something that I will never forget.

Q: What are you going to miss most about high school sports?

A: I will miss my teammates so much. They were my family for all four years of sports, and if I ever had a problem, they helped me out.

Q What is your favorite thing to do when you are not in school

or competing in a high school sport?

A: Going out ice fishing with one of my best friends Jacob Bratz. Also playing BABA baseball for Tilleda.

Q: Favorite movie, TV show, musical artist?

A: My favorite movie is “Ma-jor League.” TV show is “That 70s Show.” Favorite musical artist is Kenny Rogers.

Q: Name one thing about your-self that not many people know?

A: I love to listen to old country music.

Q: What is the greatest piece of advice you have ever been told?

A: To shut up and shoot the ball — Nathan Montez (a former team-mate of Fehrman’s)

Q: What are some things you hope to accomplish after complet-ing high school?

A: To graduate college with a degree in a natural resource field and just live a good healthy life.
