The Village of Weston and the Everest Metro Police Department would like to welcome new Police Officer, Abby Krautkramer to the Everest Metro Police Department.

Abby grew up in the rural City of Marathon school district, but has been working for the past 8 years for the St Croix Sheriff's Department. She graduated from the UW-River Falls with a Bachelor Degree in Sociology, and a minor in Criminal Justice. At 31 years of age, she felt it was time to return to her roots, and moved back to the area. Abby is a tremendous addition to the department, as she is a skilled investigator, and all around good officer. Her years of experience have already shown as she has launched her new career with EMPD. On a personal note, Abby loves the outdoors and any kind of activity that embraces nature: hunting, fishing, and of course, the Green Bay Packers. She has said of herself that she is more at home in jeans and cowboy boots than fancy dress clothes, and has quickly become part of the Everest Metro family.

The Village of Weston recognized Weston Aquatic Center staff for their role in a lifesaving event that took place in 2014. On August 10, 2014, there was a near drowning incident at the Weston Aquatic Center. A young patron ended up in 4 feet of water and could not swim. Thankfully, due to a lifeguard's alertness and training, the lifeguard was immediately able to recognize the situation and react accordingly. 
 

The recognition took place at the Weston Aquatic Center on Saturday, June 6th at 10:00 a.m., before opening up the Center for the season to the public. Management felt it was important to recognize those individuals that were able to take a potential tragic situation and turn it into nothing more than a learning experience. Several Trustees and Committee members, as well as other Village staff were on hand to show their support for the Aquatic Center Staff. Weston Aquatic Center staff is continually training to make sure that everyone's visit to the facility can be remembered as a positive experience.

The City of Schofield plans to reconstruct Metro Drive between Schofield Avenue and Ross Avenue. The work is expected to begin the week of June 8 and continue until mid-August for approximately 60 working days.
