Inside this issue:
On December 10, 2014, the High
School choir and band students held their
annual Christmas concert. They were di-
rected by Mr. Tony Sanders. Mr. Sanders
said, “I thought it went really well. Usually
the members will rise up to performing bet-
ter at a concert.” The highlights of the night
were Jazz Band, Jr. High Choir and Pop
Singers. The Jr. High Choir sang songs
such as “Do
You Want To
Build A Snow-
man” and
‘Holiday Hand
Jive.” The Jazz
band played
songs such as
“Funky ol’ St.
Nick” and “I’ll
Be Home For
Christmas.”
The Pop sing-
ers did a med-
ley of songs. “I
used a much
more appropriate level of music in this con-
cert than I have before. I challenged every-
one with different levels and languages of
music. The process worked better because I
understood what I was doing. I had a lot of
confidence in conducting the different
groups. I was nervous but in a different
spectrum. I would change a few things
about the Jr. high practices, including;
stretching rehearsal time more, and rehears-
ing earlier with them. I would spend my
time better with the Jr. high, and I might
have chosen different songs for them.” The
concert turned out
to be one hour and
fifty-five minutes
long. There were a
few solos for Jazz
band including;
Kale Knutson on
Saxophone, Abby
Soule on Trombone
and Julia Blommel
on Trumpet. “I
budgeted the length
of the concert for
two hours and no
longer. I don’t
want it to last too
late because it’s a school night. It’s a rea-
sonable amount of time for the concert to go
on. I figured the latest would be 9:30 to
reach the end of the concert.”

On December 11, 2014, the elementary stu-
dents held their annual holiday program. They
were directed by Mrs. Kris Petermeier. Mrs. Pe-
termeier said, “I have been conducting the ele-
mentary programs since 1993, so I have been put-
ting them on for 21 years. I think that the program
went very well but the kids were very nervous.
This was the first year that the kids couldn’t sit in
the gym to watch.” A few of the most memorable
parts for the audience watching the program are
the kids singing about Santa. Seeing the kids get
excited about singing is a highlight of the pro-
gram. “My least favorite part would have to be
practicing for so many weeks ahead of time and
the kids don’t
get to practice
in the gym
until the day
of the pro-
gram. I could
have given the speakers more time to practice as a
group. Some of the kids shouldn’t scream their
parts.” Some of the songs the children sang are;
“Merry Christmas Santa,” “I’ve Got A List,” and
“A Puppy for Christmas.” “They need more time
to act out their parts. Some kids can’t stand for
very long but some can. It is better if the kids
learn actions with the songs because they remem-
ber the words better with actions. They like to
choreograph themselves. The actions also help
them stay put.”

NHS is a group of selected students who show
a good example. NHS has been a part of Browerville
school since 1921. The new NHS members are chosen
every year by the high school teachers. To apply for
NHS, you must be a junior or a senior, and have a
GPA of at least 3.4 for seniors, and a 3.6 for juniors.
NHS raised $215.44 for the food shelf right here in
town. NHS does multiple different types of fundrais-
ing, activities, and community work. NHS partici-
pates in helping with the concession stands, the Penny
Wars for the food shelf and the blood drive. NHS also
recently joined with the YEAH group and set up a
dance on December 6 after the girls volleyball game
to raise awareness for “Toys for Kids” and raised
$385.
Grace Couchey said, “NHS is a great program
that awards good students. It helps prepare students
for college. The projects that we participate in help the
community and have a great impact on our school.
There isn’t much I would want change about the
group.”
Trista Boyer said, “It makes a difference on
people’s lives. It looks great on your resume. I would-
n’t want to change a lot about the group, it’s very fun
to be apart of.”
Josiah Cole said, “It’s a really fun group to be
in. It looks great on your resume and it gets you into a
good college. It is a good idea to keep your GPA up if
you’re interested in joining.”
Faith Couchey said, “NHS is a great program
to be in. It gives you a chance to help the community.
It is a good idea to volunteer a lot. Make sure you
have just a positive attitude in general.”
Andy Brichacek said, “It’s a good group to be
in. It’s structured very well. It is a good idea to be as
helpful as you can. Keep track of what you put on
your application and make sure you hand it in on time,
if not early.”
Grace, Trista, Josiah, Faith, and Andy are the
newest additions to NHS.
Kate Kellen said, “NHS is a great program
that helps students get involved. It helps prepare you
for college. I wouldn’t want to much about this pro-
gram. It’s just a good thing to be in.”
Katelyn Middendorf said, “It is a very good
program to be in. It is full of very nice people who
have a great impact on your life. The program is run
very well. I think it is a good idea to join because it
looks good on your resume. I think a good idea to get
more people interested is to hang up more posters.”

Browerville Welcomes New Staff
Stacia Pearson is our new High School
secretary. She’s not new to the community,
she’s lived here all her life and lives close by.
She says she loves working here and seeing
people that she knows everyday. Before com-
ing here she worked at Headquarters Salon for
quite a period of time in Long Prairie before
she got this job offer and decided to come to
work here. She says she enjoys working here
so far and there’s nothing she would change.

Due to a midyear resignation, students
at Browerville welcome a new math teacher.
Joseph Rowan said that he came to this school
because the students needed a qualified math
teacher. He said, “ I enjoy students and the
money was good.” The most exciting thing
about working here he said, “ Truthfully the
students and staff.” He started teaching in
1968 and retired in 2000. He taught for 32
years all in Long Prairie. He said there is noth-
ing that he would change because he likes it
just the way it is. He likes the students, staff,
and the math classes that he gets to teach. He
gets along with the students and staff really
well and has incorporated himself fast and eas-
ily into the school. After he is done teaching
here, he plans on going back to being a retired
educator, and maybe start planning another
trip. Maybe somewhere in Asia or Australia.

Triple “A” Award Winner
Makenna Hegseth is Browerville Lion’s Club Student of the Month

”She comes to class ready to learn, helpful to others and makes good use of
her time in practicing skills during class time. She is thoughtful of others.
She is pleasant to all and has been a good student all semester. She is active
in many areas of our school and community. She is in band and choir, vol-
leyball, basketball, softball, on student council and in the National Honor
Society in our school. She is the daughter of Jill and Ted Hegseth.”

This years triple “A” award winner is Katelyn Kellen. The Triple
“A” award is an award that recognizes and honors high school
seniors who have excelled in the classroom, on the athletic field,
and in the fine arts. Katelyn says, “ It’s almost like a leadership
award. In order to be a part of this award, you have to fill out a
pretty extensive application online and then submit it to the school
and they go from there.” She says, “The hardest part for me was
athletics because its an extra thing to do. You have to take your
extra time and put in extra work. Sometimes it’s harder to be a
part of a team then to work by yourself. The easier one for me was
the academics because I have always been good about managing
my schoolwork and it came more natural to me.” “My mom is an important aspect of who I am.”
She says that she heard about this award through past years. Abigail Irsfeld and Trent Johnson were
a big help. “ I am honored to be able to represent this award. I don't think I deserve it more than any-
one else, but leadership throughout the school has given me the opportunity to receive the award.”

NEW ELEMENTARY STUDENTS AND FFA
The Browerville FFA poultry Team traveled to Brainerd on Thursday Jan-
uary 8th. The team consisted of 5 high school students. The students were Russell
Parteka, Nic Becker, Stephan Hershberger, Caitlyn Robak, and Karina Perish.
While at the competition the team had to taste 10 different cheeses and label them,
taste 8 different milks that had weird flavors, and took a 50 question test about
dairy in the United States. They also had to look at 5 different milker parts and list
their defects and had to look at California Mastitis Tests. The team came in 5th
place missing 4th place by three points. If they would have had just 3 more points
they would be going to state. After the competition the team went to
Pizza Ranch for lunch. The team hopes to take part in another competi-
tion this year with another chance at making it to state. If the team
doesn’t go to another competition they will try and compete again next
year.

Some of the new elementary students were interviewed and asked a few questions about their gen-
eral thoughts about this school. Here is what they had to say:
Chase Wojtonowics said, “ I like the school, it’s kind of good. My favorite class is gym, and my
least favorite class is art. I like my teacher because she teaches math.” Ellie Dukawitz said, “ It’s a pretty
good school. My favorite class is gym, my least favorite class is math. I like my teacher, she is nice.“ She
came here from Staples. Breanna Ecker said,” It’s a good school. My favorite thing is the activities. I like
my teachers, they are good at teaching. I don't have a
least favorite class.” She came to Browerville from
Litchfield. Clayden Wojtonowics said, “ I like this
school and the teachers that I have.” Chase is in sec-
ond grade, Ellie and Clayden are fourth graders, and
Breanna is a sixth grader.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS
The Browerville School district would like
to welcome Jaymi Nelson, Isiah Gorder, Sullivan
Decker, and Devan Joarnt to the school year of
2014-2015.
Jaymi Nelson said,
“Browerville is easier than
Bertha-Hewitt schools. I
have friends here. You
know who your real
friends are after a while.
Its hard missing the first
few weeks of school
though. There are a few
things that influenced me
to come back to
Browerville including
Volleyball, my friends,
and art. It is easier to learn
when you know the teach-
ers. I have been to 7
schools in total in my life.
It is a good school to grad-
uate from.”
Sullivan Decker
said, “Browerville is a lot
simpler than Long Prairie
because stuff is easier. It is a lot more peaceful in
Browerville and I have friends here. Browerville
has influenced me to participate in school activi-
ties and be more active. I like the school a lot bet-
ter because I have a lot more friends and I learn a
lot more. I see no changes from coming back to
Browerville besides the “Truth is” posters and the
teachers. I have been to 2 schools in total. It is a
good school to graduate from because its small,
easily accessible and reliable.”
Isiah Gorder said, “There are no differ-
ences between learning at Browerville than there is
at Bertha-Hewitt. It is fun to come back to
Browerville because I actually
know people here and I'm happy
to see my friends. I have been to
6 schools in my life. It is a good
school to graduate from but I
would rather graduate from St.
Cloud because I have more
friends there.”
Devin Joarnt said, “I like
the teachers here and its more
one on one in the classrooms.
My sister influenced me to
come to Browerville because
she said it was a nice school and
I figured if she liked it then it
was a good school. I might have
still came to Browerville even if
my sister didn’t come to
Browerville. Browerville has
influenced me to want to do
good in classes and extra-
curricular activities. I have been
to 2 schools in my life.
Browerville is a good school to graduate from be-
cause I like the smallness and easier to get along
with people. It is easier to make friends in a small-
er school. It helped a lot that when I came I had
friends here already.”

YEAH is a group of high school students,
ranging from seventh through twelfth grade, who
work together to spread the message that living
healthy is important and to show a good example.
YEAH also teaches people how important it is to
stay away from drugs and alcohol. It is a great
opportunity to help others exceed and to make
good decisions in life. It is important now for the
YEAH members to recruit younger students be-
cause of the amount of seniors that are currently
in YEAH.
Clara Cline said, “I like being in YEAH. It
is a great program. I think it is a great opportunity
for younger students to learn how important it is
to not do drugs and alcohol. It is also a great op-
portunity for the older members of YEAH to
teach the newer members how important living a
healthy life is.”
Amber Sutlief said, “I really enjoy being
in this program. I think it is a good thing to teach
everybody how important it is to stay healthy and
fit. It gives you a good learning and teaching op-
portunity.”
Dani Leagjeld said, “I think YEAH is a
great program to be in. It helps you teach others
how important it is to live a healthy life. Being in
YEAH shows good leadership to others and it
helps prevents teens from making bad decisions.”
Cassie Zimmer said, “This is a great pro-
gram that helps others stay on track and think
ahead to the future. We have a lot of different ac-
tivities, mostly just ones that help bring people
together. YEAH is a lot of fun, and it gives you a
chance to be important to people.”
Christian Sutlief said, “It is a great pro-
gram to be apart of. It is very fun to have different
activities and events that are open to a wide varie-
ty of students. I find it very important to life a
healthy life and teach others to stay away from
drugs and alcohol.”

The art students in Mrs. Hagenson’s
class took a trip to see different cultures of art
on December 3, 2014.
Anja Frei, a foreigner from Switzerland,
said, “I really enjoyed the trip, it was very inter-
esting to see new things. My favorite part was
going to see the Minnesota Art Institute. My
favorite artwork in the MN Art Institute was the
French Ballroom.”
Maria
Lascano, a for-
eigner from
Ecuador, said, “I
loved the trip,
my favorite part
was seeing The
Cherry and The
Spoon. We saw
two different art
museums, the
first one we saw
was 3D art, and the second one was abstract art.
The Minnesota Art Institute is very big and has
interesting things to see and appreciate.”
Giovanna Lima, a foreigner from Brazil,
said, “I really liked the trip, I had a lot of fun. I
enjoyed everything I saw and did. I enjoyed be-
ing with my friends to see things together. My
favorite part was the Walker Museum or MN
Art Institute. We got to see many different art-
works there. I think this is a great learning op-
portunity for others to learn about the different
cultures there are around the world.”
Paula Wohlgemuth, a foreigner from
Germany, said, “I had a lot of fun going to see
everything. The bus ride there and back was
long but I had plenty of company. The muse-
ums were really big and they gave you a chance
to really appreciate art. My favorite part was
going to see the “Cherry and the Spoon.” I find
it important for the school to keep sending kids
back there because it’ll get students more inter-
ested.”
Grace
Couchey said, “I
really enjoyed
going on this trip.
I think this is a
great learning op-
portunity. My fa-
vorite part was
going to see the
Minnesota Art
Institute and be-
ing able to see the
many different types of art they have there. At
the MN Art Institute we saw 3D art and Histori-
cal Art, and at the Walker Museum we saw
more modern art. I would definitely want to go
back there again.”

This is the first
year Browerville has offered
gymnastics and with not
doing this before they com-
bined with Long Prairie
Gray Eagle in Gym-
nastics. Out of the
some girls that
showed interest, only
three showed true
interest. The
Browerville Tigers
and the LPGE Thun-
der came up with the
mascot– The Wolves.
All three Wolf gym-
nasts representing
Browerville was in-
terviewed.
Reanne,“ I have
been in gymnastics for six
years. So far I have compet-
ed in all around varsity. All
around is competing in eve-
rything: Floor, Vault, Une-
ven Bars, and the Balance
Beam. My personal goal by
the end of the season is to
become a better gymnast
individually.”
Cassie,“ This is my
first actual year in gymnas-
tics, but I’ve went to the
summer programs in Long
Prairie when I was younger.
I compete on Junior Varsity
Floor. It was awkward at
first to be with total
strangers. During Captain's
practice there was hardly
any interaction between the
girls and us. The Coaches
are fantastic! There more
then willing to go out of
their way and help us. I
liked how former girls from
gymnastics that graduated
comes to practice to help us
how to do jumps properly
and proper stance and form
for everything. It became
easier to interact with the
girls when actual practice
started because the coaches
bonded us together. I would
like to compete on more
then two spots and do better
on Beam and Floor by the
end of the season.”
Alexis,“ This is my
first year besides doing
summer programs when I
was little. My first meet I
competed on beam. I am on
Junior Varsity. Head Coach
Jen Olson took us in under
her wing like she did with
the other gymnasts.
She treated us all as
one team rather then
two schools com-
bined. She helps
with mostly with
bars since that’s her
specialty. Coach
Dave Vogel helps
girls with Vault, but
also helps with
mounts and dis-
mounts on beam.
Coach Kristi Johnson helps
a lot with tumbles on beam,
dismounts on beam, and
mostly floor. Lindsey and
Alyssa are former gymnasts
that came back and helps the
girls. Coach Lindsey Marcy-
es helps with posture,
jumps, tumbles, and score
keeping. Alyssa helps with
jumps, and girls' routine on
floor.”

weights and we have guys giving it
all they got in the upper weights”.
The second question he was asked
was, “What are your goals for the

The girls basketball team has
been rolling so far this season. As an
experienced team playing together
since they were very little has brought
them to a 10 to 0 record. To start off
the season the ladies played home vs.
Bertha Hewitt and ended with a score
of 87-52 for their first win. New Lon-
don Spicer came to town and they
pulled off another victory 57-35.
The ladies then went to
Swanville for the first road game of
the year, they had no trouble getting
the ball in the hoop and won 75-33.
The next game they played in the jun-
gle against Upsala and came out on
top with a 85-66 win. The Saint Johns
Jonnies rolled into Browerville and
the ladies won this game also at the
score of 68-31. Then the girls traveled
into Kimball and they gave them a
tough test with the lady tigers only
winning by 9; 59-50. The girls started
Christmas Break gearing up for their
annual Cloquet holiday tourney. On
December 29, the girls faced Cloquet
and won 70-61. The next day they
faced Duluth Denfeld and won again;
80-38 winning the Holiday tourney
for the first time. Then a new year
came along, on the 6th of January
Menahga came into town and we won
once again; 76-46.
Katelyn Middendorf was
asked, “How is the season going”, and
she replied with, “Its going well, we
came out hot and we want to continue
it”. The girls got new jerseys this year
and she was asked how she felt about
them, “They are very nice, we can
breathe well in them”. On January 8,
our rival Long Prairie came in and the
Browerville girls beat them 98-35.
Let’s hope the girls have success this
season and good luck!

The Boys basketball team has been doing
well so far this year. The guys started the year out
with Bertha coming to Browerville and lost a tough
one 51-56. The boys looked to bounce back vs. the
Verndale Pirates, they pulled off the win by three
points in overtime.
Upsala came to the jungle and the boys won
68-64. Then New London Spicer came for a Saturday
game and the Browerville boys lost 78-57, making
the boys record 2-2 on the early season. A big confer-
ence game and rival from 8 miles away Long Prairie
was on the teams schedule. The boys played a fantas-
tic game winning 76-65.
Kimball was suppose to travel to Browerville
but the game was postponed due to weather. When
the holidays were around and the boys basketball
team traveled to St. Johns for the annual tourney. The
first game was versus Eden Valley Watkins and the
boys played one heck of a game but could not pull
off the win. On the second day of the tourney the Ti-
gers faced Rush City and won the game 62-43. On
the final day of the tourney and last game of 2014
they faced Onamia winning again 90-60.
The boys traveled to West Central and played
well again but just could not come out on top. Another
road for the Tigers to Osakis and won 63-54. Royalton
Royals came in the Jungle and the boys won for a second
straight game with a score of 74-26. In a interview with
Senior Grant Heid, he answered some questions about the
season so far. “What
are the goals for the
year?”, then he an-
swered with, “The
goal is to get better
each and every
game”. How is your
season going so far?,
“Its going very
good”. “Who would
be your biggest threat
on the year?”, “The
five guys out on the
court”. “What could you work on?’, “We could work on
communicating and running an offence”. On Monday,
January 12, they went to Parkers Prairie, and lost in a nail
bitter 70-67. The next day they went to St. Johns and lost
in overtime 64-63. Making their record 7-6 on the year.
Good Luck on the rest of the year!
