The Middleton Cross Plains

resolution formally opposing
Assembly Bill 247, a piece of
legislation that proposes to do
away with current rules and reg-
crucial to the school district, to

According to Blodgett, the
main goal is to provide students
and teachers with the technol-

their learning.
We make sure that our end-
users feel like we value them,
Blodgett explained. We try to
provide them with the services

In order to meet this goal the

Paran holds a Bachelor of
Music from the New England
Conservatory of Music where
she studied with Mr. James
Buswell IV.Paran has been the
concertmaster of the Middleton
Community Orchestra since
2015.
Amirinazari recently took
some time to answer questions
from the Times-Tribune, detail-
ing her love of music (and life
in general), her collaboration
with the Middleton Community
Orchestra, and how the sounds
bring freedom and equality for
the people (specifically women)
of Iran. I learned at a very early
age what truly selfless people
are, and that they are few and
far between in this world. The
life of my parents is a bit of a
unique and mildly cinematic,
story that is probably for an-
other time. Nonetheless, I have
some pretty stellar humans in
my life.
Middleton Times-Tribune:
How and when did music come
into your life, both as an aes-
thetic and as a professional dis-
cipline?
Amirinazari: One afternoon,
roughly twenty-five years ago,
many wonderful people.
It was during high school
when it started becoming much
clearer to me that my life re-
volved primarily around music.
The experiences I had, and cre-
ated for myself, during high
school launched me into this
life that Im so grateful to have.
I now realize that its not just
about how much I enjoy playing
music that made it possible to
become a violinist, but that
learning an instrument involves
a certain kind of discipline, a
constant progress and apprecia-
tion for the process, self-reflec-
tion, solitary and social
environments, as well as a nice
balance of physical and mental
challenges.
Amirinazari: Each persons
experience of an event is differ-
ent and personal; the same goes
for listening to classical music.
A person should allow them-
selves to figure out how they
personally experience it. No one
can tell you how it should feel
or sound especially with classi-
cal music when there are so
many different components that
can be attractive to different
people.
Even as a scholarly listener
its hard for me to articulate
how I personally experience lis-
tening to live classical music. I
mainly like to hear and feel the
sounds coming from the stage
and have the sounds transport
me wherever my mind decides
cussion sections, graceful
dances, mournful melodies in
the woodwinds, and string play-
ers plucking wildly, just to
name a few. There truly is
something for everyone!
Middleton Times-Tribune: I
think I read that Mozart is your
favorite composer. Why?
Amirinazari: His music is
funny, quirky, elegant, soulful,
natural, vocal, simple yet com-
plicated, and timeless; all ele-
ments that I appreciate in music
and in other aspects of life.

women have a difficult time finding flat-

The goal of Curve Shop Consignment
Sale is to help women find gently used
plus-size clothing that fits and flatters

concerns about superblock de-

Attoun said having the devel-
opment wrap around an open
green space was a concept that
was popular in the 60s and 70s
and may not be as desirable
today or in the future.
Attoun added that there were
concerns from city staff about
whether the area could support
a market a proposed.
Is Middleton big enough to
support a market? We know
there are a lot of public markets
that dont turn a profit year after
year, Attoun asked the plan

jobs nearby but there are not a
lot of rooftops nearby to support

cessful we might want to talk
about what the other potential
uses there could be for the

Brush chipping popularity causes issues

by KeviN MURpHy
Times-Tribune
Brush chipping, one of the
most popular services offered
by the town of Middleton, has
become too popular with resi-
dents this spring, prompting the
town board to hire more help.
Since a March ice storm, a
town crew has been chipping
street-side piled brush, longer
than normal for such work, Kirt
Pierson, the towns Field Oper-
ations Manager, told the board
Monday night.
Its been nine weeks. We
need relief but most contractors
are in the same boat, he said.
Residents have been pushing
the limits towns policy of not
chipping branches downed by
contractors. If a homeowner
hires a contractor to trim or
down trees, they need to hire the
contractor to haul away the
brush, too, said Town Adminis-
trator David Shaw.
A crew encountered a prop-
erty where 12 trees had been cut
down and piled up which took
four hours to reduce to chips,
Pierson said.
The chipping service is of-
fered for routine landscape
maintenance not land clearing,
Shaw said.
The policy envisioned a 15-
minute stop per address which
allows a crew to cover the town
in about a week. However,
brush has been piled along
streets for up to twice that time
generating calls to the town
hall.
A chipping crew consists of
two men, a chipper and a truck.
In recent years, a nine-and-a-
half-yard dump truck has re-
placed a five-yard truck but still
the crew has not been able to
keep up.
Typical chipping days had
produced about three truckloads
but Pierson said seven truck-
loads were hauled Monday.
We could just eliminate the
service all together, said Board
Supervisor Brent Renteria.
While that is a possibility,
Pierson said residents would
bring brush to dumpsters at
town hall, which now takes a
crew up to two hours a day to
empty.
Installing a dumpster cam
was suggested as too many non-
residents are suspected of dis-
posing their yard waste at the
town hall.
Town staff will promote the

tions.
Co-Author of the bill, Sena-
tor Craig described the bill as a
constitutional right.
At its essence, this bill does
two things: removes barriers to
the exercise of a constitutional
right and simplifies the law,
said Senator Craig. If you de-
cide to carry a weapon to pro-
tect yourself or your family, you
should be able to do so easily
without bureaucratic hurdles
and without cost.
The Bill itself has been under
heavy criticism for its proposed
weakening of what critics see as
already lax gun control and the
unnecessary burden it puts on
police, schools and other insti-
tutions by making Wisconsin
ultimately less safe.
The Bill does have some re-
strictions, although citizens
would be allowed to carry
weapons on a school grounds
and zones, schools can post
their buildings and grounds
under the trespassing laws. This
would make trespassing on
school grounds with a weapon a
Class C misdemeanor.
The Middleton Cross Plains
Area School Board members
ended the resolution by reiter-
ated their commitment to the
safety of school grounds and
zones.
School Board members
stated the school district looks
to their first responders to ad-
dress safety and believes having
others who are armed on school
grounds, without preparation or
training, jeopardizes the lives of
innocent bystanders, police and
other safety personnel and most
importantly the students.

Softball Cardinals
Middleton manager Perry Hibner offers up words advice for Sara Wettstein (20) and Katrina Anderson (15) during the
Cardinals win over Tomah in the regional semifinals last week.
fall in regional finals
Middleton
finishes
season 15-12
by RoB ReisCHeL
Times-Tribune
When the postseason began,
Middleton girls softball coach
Perry Hibner believed six
teams were capable of winning
his star-studded sectional.
Holmen still has a chance to
do just that. Hibner and his
Cardinals do not.
In a WIAA Division 1
regional final Friday, host
Holmen broke a 1-1 tie with
three runs in the fifth inning
and two more in the sixth and
went on to upend the Cardinals,
6-2.
Sixth-seeded Middleton
ended the year 15-12, while
third-seeded Holmen improved
to 21-6.
It was a well-played game
by two very good teams,
Hibner said. It felt like a sec-
tional final. They just came up
with a couple more plays at the
key times.
Middleton did strike first
and grabbed a 1-0 lead in the
first inning. Ashley Bindl
walked with one out, moved to
second on Rachel Everson's
single to left and scored on
Hanna Fisher's two-out single
up the middle.
Middleton had a chance to
increase the lead in the third
inning when Everson doubled
to left-center field to lead off
the inning. After Jessica
Parente struck out, Fisher hit a
deep fly to right-center field
that center fielder Morgan
Pellowski tracked down.
Everson advanced to third
base on the play, but was
stranded when Brianna Buss
grounded out to short.
That was a missed opportu-
nity, Hibner said. And you
always feel like when you are
playing a good team like
Holmen they will come back to
haunt you.
It did.
Holmen tied the game in the
fourth when Kendra Leis dou-
bled to the wall in right,
advanced to third on Kylee
Schams' groundout and scored
on a fielder's choice by
McKenzie Winker.
The Vikings then took the
lead during a three-run fifth.
Cassie Schmidt had a two-out,
RBI single to center and Leis
followed with a two-run triple
to right.
The Cardinals weren't done,
however. Buss walked to lead
off the sixth and Katrina
Anderson followed with a sin-
gle to left. Makenzie Kopp had
a sacrifice bunt and Wettstein
was hit by a pitch to load the
bases.
Lauren Banke singled to
right to cut the deficit to 4-2.
Bindl then hit a smash up the
middle, but Schams was able to
field it and throw home to get
Anderson.
That was the play of the
game, Hibner said. If she
doesn't make that play, we get
two runs and the game is tied
and who knows how many runs
we get that inning.
The threat ended when
Everson struck out. Holmen
then tacked on two runs in the
bottom of the inning on
Pellowski's two-out, two-run
single to left.
Schams is a fantastic pitch-
er and Leis is as a good of a hit-
ter as we have seen this year,
Hibner said.

were vital to MHS success in
recent seasons.
Our seniors have done a
fantastic job this year and over
the years, Hibner said. They
have been great leaders and
have had lots of individual and
team success. They will be
missed.
Banke, a junior who has
started on the varsity the past
three years, also wont return
as her family is moving to
Illinois as part of a job reloca-
tion.
Lauren is such a versatile
player, said Hibner, who noted
that Banke has pitched, played
shortstop and outfield during
her time. And her speed and
hitting are irreplaceable. It's a
huge loss but we'll find a way.

team scored eight runs in the
second inning, which keyed a
12-2 win over Tomah in a
WIAA Division 1 regional
semifinal Wednesday. The
game was stopped after six
innings due to the 10-run
mercy rule.
The sixth-seeded Cardinals
improved to 15-11 and
advanced to a regional final at
Holmen, while the 11th-seeded
Timberwolves finished the year
4-15.
It was certainly nice to
keep the momentum going
after the win at Sun Prairie,

a.m.
Im really excited to see
what its going to be like,
Dettman said of reaching the
state tournament. Last year, I
watched some other people
play. This year, its going to be
nice to be there and be play-
ing.
The Cardinals No. 2 dou-
bles team of Adam Schiebler
and Mason Pyle also won a
sectional championship,
defeating Sun Prairies Henri
Blair and Taran Katta in the
title match. That propelled
Middletons duo to state, where
theyll face Hudsons Toby
Haynor and Isaac Young
Thursday at 1 p.m.
Middletons No. 4 singles
player, Nitin Somasundaram,
finished first at sectionals.
Somasundaram defeated
Arrowheads Jonny Dassow in
the championship match.
And Middletons No. 3 dou-
bles team of Altin Yan and
Colin Hogendorn finished
third.
Im extremely proud of our
guys, Middleton coach Kalla
Schaefer said. We had a lot of
people that played really well.
We played a lot of good ten-
nis.
Gold certainly fits that bill.
Gold is a classic baseliner,
whose ground strokes are sub-
lime. Gold rarely beats himself
and frustrates foes that lack his
patience.
Gold used that approach to
defeat Pewaukees Abhi
Kodoli, 6-4, 6-1, in his first
match. Gold then upset top-
seeded Brendan Pietila of
Arrowhead, 6-4, 7-6 (2) to
reach the championship.
Schutter entered the match
as the favorite, but Gold gave
him everything he could han-
dle. After dropping the first set,
Gold rallied from a 6-5 hole in
the second set, and forced a
tiebreaker that he went on to
dominate.
In the third set where the
first player to 10 points wins
Schutter rolled off six unan-
swered points in the middle of
the set, which proved too much
for Gold to overcome.
Obviously, right now Im
disappointed, Gold said. He
beat me at conference in
straight sets, so this one was a
lot closer.
Dettman and Rafael Sanga
rolled to straight set wins over
doubles teams from West Bend
East and Sun Prairie in their
first two matches. But
Waunakees duo that
includes James Paradisin, a
seeded singles player at last
years state meet was too
much for the Cardinals tan-
dem.
I thought we had a good
day, Dettman said.
So did Schiebler and Pyle,
who knocked off Arrowheads
duo of Ryan Casey and Jared
Pietila, 7-5, 6-1, in the semifi-
nals. Then in the championship
match, Schiebler and Pyle
defeated Sun Prairies Blair
and Katta, 6-2, 6-3.
What hurt Middleton in the
team competition was its No. 2
and 3 singles players were
knocked out in subsectionals.
We played so well in so
many spots, Schaefer said.
We had some tough losses at
subsectionals that cost us some
points. But Im really proud of
the guys.
