7:30 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.
Waunakee Village Hall
500 West Main Street

What do lighthouses, the Milky Way and photography have in common? Do you enjoy the scenery of the night skies? Do you want to support the local initiative promoting creativity and innovation in Waunakee?  If the answer to any of these questions is yes, please make plans to stop in at the Village Hall to learn more! While you're enjoying your dessert and coffee, you'll have the chance to meet with Mark Weller, local artist, and learn a bit about his passion.
 
Mark spends his summers chasing the perfect photography of the Milky Way anchored by the wilderness tree lines that cry "up north".

Waunakee School District Facilities Master Plan Survey

Dear Residents of Waunakee Community School District,

As you are aware, our School District is growing. We have grown by 510 students (K-8) since 2005 and expect 200 more by 2020. We are committed to finding a solution through a long-term Facilities Master Plan that supports teaching and learning, and one that recognizes the input of our staff and community. 

To guide decision-making for a November 2014 referendum addressing facility options, we are launching an important community-wide survey to all households; in fact you will receive the survey in your mail over Memorial Day Weekend.

 To confirm:

All adult school district residents can take the survey by hard copy (returning with a postage paid envelope) or online using a randomly-generated access code. Additional access codes for other adult members in the home are available through the District Office by calling 849-2000.

The survey will close on Wednesday, June 11 and School Perceptions will share the results at a special School Board meeting on Monday, June 23 at 6:30pm. The final survey report will also be posted on our website.

We recognize that this is an exceptionally busy time of year for parents and many others in the community. Please help us spread the word about the survey so we can generate a strong community response to guide our next steps. Thank you for your support of this important work -- we look forward to hearing from you!

Randy Guttenberg, Superintendent

Stress Less Health Fair: Make Your Own Stress Relief Medicine with Qigong.

Waunakee Public Library
710 South Street
Tuesday, May 27, 2014
7:00 PM

Qigong is a gentle, but profound exercise practiced for thousands of years in China for longevity and self healing. "Qi" refers to the energy that is expressed in our physical, mental and emotional life. "Gong" means to work or cultivate. So, qigong is about working with our energy in ways that help us to let go of stress and to relax, which allows the body's healing resources to kick in. The exercise program integrates gentle movement, self-massage, mind focus and breathe work. It is very easy to follow. No pressure! Tai Chi is one of the Well-Known forms of qigong, so we will incorporate some graceful and easy Tai Chi gestures. You'll leave with some stress relief tools that you can use at your office, home or even in the car to keep stressful energy from settling into your body. Wear comfortable and loose clothing. Phyllis Lobdell is a certified teacher of qigong through the Institute Integral Qigong and Tai Chi, Santa Barbara, CA.

Madison Beltline Planning and Environmetal Linkages (PEL) Study

The purpose of this email is to keep you informed on the progress of the Madison Beltline Planning and Environment Linkages (PEL) Study. The study is being conducted by the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WisDOT), in partnership with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). It covers 20 miles of the Beltline from US 14 in Middleton to County N in Cottage Grove. This email will provide you with an update on the Beltline Study, where to find additional information about the study, and who to contact with questions.

Study update
Over the past year, the corridor study team has gathered feedback from the public, local officials, businesses, residents, and state and federal agencies. This information, along with a wealth of information about existing corridor conditions collected by the study team, helped them develop the Beltline Corridor problem statement, goals and objectives. The objectives focus primarily on reducing congestion and crashes and improving mobility for all modes of travel.

Documentation about the problem statement, goals and objectives can be viewed at the project website by clicking on the Reports link: www.dot.wi.gov/projects/swregion/madisonbeltline/reports.htm

The problem statement, goals and objectives were then used to develop screening criteria. Over the past six months, the corridor study team has been developing a range of multi-modal strategies and evaluating them against the screening criteria. Multiple corridors and strategies are being investigated, as shown below.

Thus far, the study team has investigated a north corridor and alternative modes (such as transit) options. Improvements through the Isthmus, Beltline, and a south corridor will also be investigated over the next few months. Strategies that show promise will be moved forward in the PEL process and will be investigated further in a future environmental impact statement (EIS). An updated project schedule can be found on the website by clicking on the Schedule link:

www.dot.wi.gov/projects/swregion/madisonbeltline/schedule.htm

At this time, we are midway through the PEL study and working to develop, evaluate, and screen broad strategies. After this step, there will be a series of public information meetings in the fall of 2014.

The study team is also in the process of developing an existing conditions report that encompasses the following information:

Section 1 - Economics

Section 2 - Origin-Destination Study

Section 3 - Pedestrian/Bikes

Section 4 - Operations

Section 5 - Transit

Section 6 - Safety

Section 7 - Geometrics

Section 8 - Environment

Section 9 - Trends/Land Use

 

This report identifies the current state of the Beltline in these categories and also takes into account past and future transportation trends. Sections 1, 2, 3, 5, and 6 are completed and can be found on the project website by clicking on the Reports link:

http://www.dot.wi.gov/projects/swregion/madisonbeltline/reports.htm

Presentations on current information about the PEL study have recently been provided to many communities and local organizations. This presentation can be found on the project website by going to the Public involvement tab and clicking on the following link:

www.dot.wi.gov/projects/swregion/madisonbeltline/docs/ss2014.pdf

Stress Less Health Fair: Relaxing Into The Shimmy: Belly Dance As a Stress Reliever

Waunakee Public Library
710 South Street
Tuesday, May 13, 2014
7:00 PM

The quintessential belly dance move, "the shimmy" is achieved not from muscle tension, but mainly through relaxation. People all over the world are  discovering the many mental health benefits belly has to offer. Belly dance started out as a folk dance, which means it is accessible to regular people of any age, size or shape. It fully engages both mind and body simultaneously, promoting healthy body image, connectedness to self and full presence in the moment. Seana Dishun of Euphoria Movement Arts Studio can show you how shimmying (and other belly dance moves) can melt away the barrier of our daily cares and let our spirits soar.

Attitude is Everything

We are in construction season. Dotted around the Village are those iconic orange barrels, piles of dirt, barricades, and so on. Not much can be more annoying than those pieces of evidence that summer is here in Wisconsin. To top it off, our center of Village commerce and busiest road in the community - Main Street - is totally closed at Century Avenue with work being completed for nearly a mile from Holiday Drive to Division Street.

What are we to do as Waunakee residents to cope? I think the answer has everything to do with attitude. Speaking for myself, this is what I intend to do every time I feel those pings of annoyance.

Think September - Four months. That's the expected project duration. In the grand scheme of things, it's not a long time. With the intense busy-ness of everything else going on in the summer, I'll blink a few times and June will arrive, July 4th will hit us, Waunafest will roll in, and then we'll be buying school supplies for the fall semester. It... will... end.

Envision Results - I can look forward to a transformation of our downtown as an improved public place. When I feel frustrated during the construction, closing my eyes for a moment and picturing the new streetscape features will help me to remember the good that will come from this work. Just don't try this closing eyes approach while driving.

Smile and Do Good - Both smiling and doing good for others have been scientifically proven to help improve attitudes. I plan to participate in the various community activities being planned by the Together Waunakee Committee. Visiting with neighbors, taking in live music, spending time with family and enjoying good food are all ways that the planned events will put a smile on my face. I also plan to do good by shopping local more than usual. The merchants will appreciate it which, in turn, will give me a sense of having done my part to sustain and boost our great local businesses.

We will make it through and have much to look forward to. The dust of construction will give way to a rejuvenated sense of pride we can each have for our Village.
