Counseling Corner
“There cannot be a stressful crisis next week. My schedule is already full.”
As adolescents mature, they experience increasingly complex life situations that often lead to stress and frustration. Teens need to learn how to adjust to having more pressure and responsibility in their home lives and at school.

Inga Lami
Join with women of all ages to celebrate the spirit of Inga Lami! Enjoy delicious Norwegian food, local music, and an evening luminary ski at Minocqua Winter Park on Saturday, January 21.
This year we are inviting women and girls, ages 10 and up, for an afternoon of activities. Take a few runs on the tubing hill before enjoying hot drinks, appetizers, and local music in the chalet. A guided luminary ski will be offered in the evening. Bring your skis, snowshoes and a friend! Rentals for skis and snowshoes are available at a discount. Novice skiers and snowshoers are welcome.
Space is limited in the naturalist and art groups so sign up early! Cost is $35 which includes ski pass, meal, and entertainment. Registration will cost an additional $5 the day of the event. Go to Minocqua Winter Park's website, or call (715) 356-3099 with any questions.
This is a fundraiser to support the development of non-competitive community programs at Minocqua Winter Park. A portion of the monies will also go to Tri-County Domestic Abuse Program.
