Three design concepts for the newly formed Lakeshore Park were present- ed and discussed at last week’s Advisory Parks Board meeting, where city officials and residents gave their first impressions of what they liked best about the park lay- out options. The presentation by SmithGroup con- sultants was guided by the results of a public survey and other input received in recent months that generally encouraged a passive recreational experience centered around wildlife, walking trails and shore- line activities while incorporating artistic features. Preservation of natural habitat and the area’s cultural history also has been emphasized within the 70-acre design plan. Nathan Hiller of SmithGroup gave an overview of each illustrated design (www. ci.oshkosh.wi.us/Parks/LakeshorePark) while explaining the parameters, or “edg- es,” that surround the park. Bounded by the shoreline, Oshkosh Corp.’s new global headquarters, the redeveloped Oshkosh Avenue area and adjacent neighbor- hoods/parks, Hiller said each option has a different way to balance the space with the requested amenities. City of Oshkosh Hiller said designers worked with the Consultants for designing the new Lakeshore Park offered three options that were presented last week to the Advisory Parks Board. theme of “threads, places and moments” to consider all ideas for Lakeshore’s best use.

More than 55,000 young people repre- senting many states and more than 100 nations set up a tent city last week for its Eighth International Pathfinder Campo- ree at the Experimental Aircraft Associa- tion’s AirVenture Campgrounds. Themed “Chosen,” the five-day camp- oree, held every five years, is sponsored by the Seventh-day Adventist Church in North America, based in Maryland, and the Center for Youth Evangelism in Ber- rien Springs, Mich. The scoutlike Adven- tist youth organization worked on honor patches, conducted marching and drilling exhibitions, and had a talent showcase along with sporting activities. One of the most important activities the Pathfinders undertake are community ser- vice projects at 57 locations in communi- ties surrounding Oshkosh and the region with the help of 9,000 adult volunteers. Social media postings about the group being connected to local thefts and shop- lifting were discounted by EAA officials and police agencies. Dick Knapinski, EAA director of com- munications, said the Oshkosh Police Department and Winnebago County Sheriff’s Department noted there were no filed criminal complaints involving the Photos by Michael Cooney Pathfinders when contacted last week and Pathfinders took on 57 community service projects during their week in the Oshkosh area.

Time travel is impossible, but the Osh- kosh West football program wants to pull a Marty McFly. A return to the winning atmosphere of 2017 is what the Wildcats seek. That was a playoff season for West and the Wildcats hope to jump back into the postseason after a disappointing 2-8 finish in 2018. “I think we have FOOTBALL the talent to do PREVIEW that,” said West coach Ken Levine. “We have a little ex- tra speed and I’m pretty excited. A lot of our seniors were on that playoff team and know what it’s like and what’s required to get there. That’s why they have this expec- tation of getting back to the playoffs and they feel it’s a realistic ex- pectation.” Senior wide receiver Nate Carlin is one of them. “You’ve got to re- member we were a Levine playoff team a few years ago,” Carlin said. “We know what it takes and how to get there, and we’re going to do it.

Three of their losses were by six or fewer points, in- cluding a 10-7 loss to a good Neenah team and a 26-25 setback to Appleton East in the finale. “The Neenah game was kind of the way our season went,” Levine said. “They were Whether it’sanew-to-you minivan that fits the one of the top teams in the state and we whole family or the condo you’ve been keeping an eye on for “someday”,the stuffinyourlife reflects were up on them 7-0 in the fourth quarter your dreams for the future. and couldn’t hold on.

Juston Wara’s first two seasons at his alma mater of Oshkosh North simply haven’t gone the way things had been planned. While searching for his first high school coaching victory there is only one word that can describe his team’s perfor- mance: improvement. “The last couple of years we have shown improvement. It may have not shown up on the scoreboard.
