We're meditating on this week's episode of The Menom Pod!
We're joined by Lisa Traxler, owner of Inside Out Transformations LLC, for a wonderful conversation about wellness and mental health. Learn what led her to start her own coaching business and participate in a very simple breathing exercise to end the episode. Plus, we talk a little bit more about our personal experiences with meditation, wellness, and mindfulness as a whole.
Attention area teachers: There is still space available for our workshop coming up at Rassbach Museum and Fulton's Workshop on October 24th. Recommended for teachers of grades 4-12. Workshops are open to formal and non-formal educators including homeschool teachers.
In this workshop you will review energy and electricity basics, design and test blades in a wind tunnel, explore related KEEP energy education resources, and preview ready-to-use renewable energy lessons. We will learn about the Historical Society's "Solar Victory Garden" and hop in our vehicles for a short drive to tour a nearby solar farm.
Participants will also learn about the Wisconsin KidWind Challenge and gain tips for coaching student teams through the process of designing and constructing small-scale turbines or solar devices. Educators will leave with the resources and confidence to use renewable energy as a lens into hands-on science, technology, and engineering exploration in the classroom. (And you'll get some free gear valued over $170, too!)
A regular meeting of the SDMA School Board will be held on Monday, October 14th at 5:45pm. This meeting will be held at the Administrative Service Center. The agenda can be found below.

The River Falls Wildcats exploded with 29 second half points, after getting shutout in the first half, to gain a 29-19 victory over the Menomonie Mustangs.
In that second half, “River Falls owned the line of scrimmage and hit on some big plays,” according to head coach Mike Sinz.
Both teams traded a few possessions in the first quarter, before sophomore DJ Butler started the scoring in the 2nd quarter with his first varsity touchdown on a 9-yard run. River Falls almost answered on their next drive, but a 77-yard touchdown pass from Tino Massa to Eli Johnson was called back on a holding penalty. A special teams blunder two plays later by the Wildcats gave the Mustangs a short field and Butler touched paydirt again, this time from 11 yards.
The Wildcats received the second half kickoff and scored in the first 24 seconds as Massa connected with Johnson from 22 yards out. On River Falls' next drive, it took them just three plays to go 80 yards and took the lead on a 65-yard touchdown pass to sophomore receiver Charlie Burke. Junior quarterback Massa had one of the best games of his season tossing four touchdown passes with Iowa recruit Johnson being on the receiving end of two of those.
Issac Ellison did not play in the second half due to injury.
The Mustangs will close out the regular season next week at Chippewa Falls while River Falls travels to Wausau West.
