The season is changing.
Fall is here, and with the beautiful weather, it’s hard to believe. The warmer-than-usual temperatures are making the season very easy to enjoy. Lake Geneva is just over 10% of its expected fall color. That is about to change as fall color is about to start popping. The third or fourth week of October is typically full peak in Lake Geneva. The wonderful Geneva Lake offers so many great ways to enjoy the vibrant colors.
Looking out across the lake gives a splendid view of all the different colors and shades of autumn. The lake also has the best walking path that goes around the lake and has some of the most beautiful old trees along the shore that display the colors well. Get out and enjoy the colors before the leaves all fall and the cold weather really sets in. No matter where you go around the lake to soak in the beauty, you are sure to be pleased.
Elkhorn associate principal receives death threats after being falsely accused of a negative post about Charlie Kirk.
Elkhorn’s West Side Elementary associate principal, Cindy Rehberg, received threats after being falsely accused on social media of celebrating Charlie Kirk’s assassination. It started when the Associate Principal Cynthia Rehberg was included in a post on X by conservative influencer Ryan Fournier.
In the post, Fournier said Rehberg “celebrated the death of Charlie Kirk’s assassination.” The post, which was later deleted, included a photo that showed Rehberg’s school employee photo underneath a Facebook post made by Cynthia Irene. Elkhorn Area Schools Superintendent Jason Tadlock said that the woman who posted it is not Rehberg. He also added that Rehberg does not have Irene as a maiden or middle name. The district received almost 1000 voicemail messages referring to the post. Many of the voicemails demanded that Rehberg be fired.
A number of them even included death threats. Despite Fournier’s retraction, Rehberg faced significant backlash. Elkhorn police escorted Rehberg home and have maintained a presence at the school. The district superintendent is collaborating with police and the district attorney to criminally charge callers and commenters who lobbed serious threats.
