Richfield Public Schools to consider referendum renewal

Dining program offers seniors meals

BY BILLIE JO RASSAT SUN NEWSPAPERS

A special study session was held before the June 13 Richfield District School Board meeting to discuss the options in renewing the current district referendum. The district referendum will be up for renewal in the 2012-2013 school year but may be addressed a year earlier, according to Business Manager Michael Schwartz. During the study session it was discussed why it would be in the schools best interest to proceed with putting this issue on a ballot this November. If the district waited, other issues like the presidential election would over shadow the referendum, according to Schwartz. Survey results compiled and presented by Springsted

The program offered for senior citizens age 60 years and up, but not limited to, is held at noon every weekday, Monday through Friday, at the Richfield Community Center, 7000 Nicollet Ave., in Richfield. Reservations are required two days in advanced by calling 612869-6662.

World Peace and Prayer Day 2011 called ‘poignant and meaningful’ BY BILLIE JO RASSAT SUN NEWSPAPERS During World Peace and

Prayer Day 2011 on June 1821, at the sacred area of Bdote Minnesota, where the Mississippi River and Minnesota River meet, healing and hope prospered. “It was absolutely beautiful,” president of the Global Athlete Village and an organizer of World Peace and Prayer Day Stephanie

The Right Stuff in Richfield 100 years and still going strong Happy Birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday, dear Peggy, happy birthday to you! Florence Buchanan, known to the world as Peggy, turned 100 years old on June 16. Buchanan has lived a long time and it was in her much younger years she got the name of Peggy. While working at Powers Dry Goods Department Store in downtown Minneapolis, five other employees were named Florence, so it was decided then to call her Peggy. “And from then the name just stayed with me,” said Buchanan. Some of the things Buchanan has done through out her life included raising poodles and working in a cigar stand at the Andrews Hotel in Minneapolis, which was torn down in 1978.

“I have had a good life,” Buchanan said. She was married to Wilber ‘Buddy’ Buchanan for over 50 years. Buchanan now lives at the Sheridan House in Richfield. With no children, Buchanan filled her time dancing to jazz and the rest of the music of the times. “She can tell you who Usher and Beyonce are and that should tell you how young at heart she really is,” Sheridan House Care Assistant Sheila Atkinson said. Buchanan now spends her days participating in daily exercises, playing Rummikub and reading her favorite author, Danielle Steel. “She is a fun person. She may be 100, but has the mentality of a 50-year-old,” Atkinson said.

Richfield Ambassadors promote July 4 events BY BILLIE JO RASSAT • SUN NEWSPAPERS They are not just another pretty face—the young ladies and gentlemen in the Richfield Ambassadors program represent the City of Richfield with pride, courage and honor as they prepare for all of the Richfield Fourth of July events. According to Ambassadors Chair Jodi Olson, who was once a Richfield Ambassador herself, every spring a candidate program is held in which young people compete to be crowned one of three Ambassadors, from ages 17-22, or one of two Junior Ambassadors, from kindergarten-2nd grade. The ambassadors program is designed to promote growth and educational experiences in young adults through the promotion of the Richfield Hometown 4th of July Celebration and is dedicated to volunteerism and developing leaders who will serve as positive role models said Olson. “The five young women travel

across the state of Minnesota promoting the city of Richfield and our Hometown Fourth of July Celebration,” Olson said. “In a sense, these ladies are Public Relations Officers. They carry the spirit of Richfield everywhere they go.” To become a Richfield Ambassador a candidates must be 17-22 years old by July 1st of the year they are running, live, work or attending a school in Richfield, have never been married, be pregnant, nor have children and complete the required application. “We call ourselves Ambassadors because this is not a beauty pageant but a program that focuses on the ambassadors and candidates—who they are, not what they look like. By the time the ambassadors give up their crowns there are excellent public speakers, have great communication and networking skills and are experts on everything Richfield,” Olson said. She continues, “They have become friends with and learned about people AMBASSADORS: TO PAGE 8

Whose stupid idea were fireworks anyway? For more than 30 years as a journalist, I have been listening to police and fire officials tell me fireworks are dangerous. Once a topic is repeated that many times, you tend to begin believing it. We’re not talking about the big bang theory commercial fireworks displays cities plan each year on the Fourth of July. These are the little ones, the dangerous ones, the ones that will rip your finger off and burn your skin. Mostly fireworks were illegal in Minnesota for a very long time. There were always those scofflaws who trekked across into Wisconsin to buy their fireworks, brought them back home and started house fires, of course. But then along came Jesse Ventura. The number of pieces of legacy legislation from the Ventura administration can be counted on one hand – a hand

PAUL WAHL Senior Managing Editor Sun Newspapers

with two fingers blown off by fireworks. Gov. Ventura decided that since he liked fireworks and he thought it was a good thing (despite what public safety experts had to say), everyone should have access to fireworks. The problem with the law is that most people take it to mean that fireworks are legal yearround in Minnesota. From the balcony of our home, we hear them being fired off (mostly the illegal variety) most weeks of the year. Yes even in the dead of winter. I’m sure if we were to go back into the annals of fire calls over the years since the fireworks laws were relaxed we

could find our share of injuries, fires and general mayhem. It’s too bad that cities and counties can’t send the bill for investigating these mishaps to Ventura personally. All that being said, I have to admit that as a child I had an affinity for things that exploded loudly and left large plumes of smoke. I have a couple scars on my hands to attest to my fascination. I can remember placing large caches of Black Cat firecrackers in a coffee can and lighting the fuse. The echo from the can was a major plus factor. My mother particularly couldn’t say too much because her mother – my grandma – was also a fireworks fan. Each year my grandparents’ back yard was the scene of one very spectacular fireworks display. I have a few cousins who also have permanent scars on their fingers from those little adventures.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Kudos to Richfield spring sports To the editor: I thank Richfield High School's spring sports teams for a very enjoyable season. As usual, our girls and boys represented Richfield in an outstanding manner and I feel honored to know them as a fan and friend. Our softball and baseball teams finished with winning records while being led by the leadership of seniors, Carly Klass and Kalie Johnson in softball and Tyler Klopp and Tyler Jetvig in baseball. In track, I felt fortunate to be in attendance at the Spartan Invitational to watch both teams win championships. It was the third consecutive for the girls. I offer my special congratulations to Jessica January and Jordon Sefon for their strong showing at the state meet.

But I digress. My hope is that in the 40 or so years since I was a child we have learned that no matter how big the attraction, some celebratory items should not be an option. Fireworks in the hands of young fools is one of those. For the life of me I cannot understand why this tradition remains. Fireworks were invented by the Chinese so how does that make them the centerpiece of an American independence celebration? Heck we’re in debt up to our eyeballs to the Chinese. Surely there’s something more American we can choose to replace fireworks – at least the kind that cause children to be injured and scarred and start fires. Whether you’re a fan or wish all of the fireworks in the world would go up in one big ball of fire, have a great Fourth of July weekend. Be safe.

Share your views Jessica again won the gold medal in the 100-meter hurdles. Hannah Olson had a solid season as a long distance runner. Both golf teams were very competitive, anchored by seniors Jared Etienne and Andrew Tolvstad for the boys and Alex Westman and Miranda Matuke for the girls. Mo Heckle and Alex Maki, AllConference selections, led Lee Herman’s tennis team. Our synchronized swimming team finished ninth at the state meet. My special congratulations also go to Kelsey Metz for winning the Athena Award and Zak Beaudet for the Tom Spooner Memorial Award. I feel both are highly deserving of these prestigious honors. I wish all of the athletes the best of luck and success in all future endeavors. Oz Mullerleile Richfield

Bloomington author honors dad in new book BY MATTHEW HANKEY • SUN NEWSPAPERS Getting thoughts onto paper can be a cathartic and healing exercise. For class of ‘98 Eagan High School alum Tyrel Nelson, this process not only helped him publish his third book, but also provided an outlet to deal with his grief following the passing of his father this past Valentine’s Day. “Those Darn Stripes” is a 94-page collection of personal short stories published May 11 by CreateSpace, an Internet-based publishing service. Nelson’s first two books largely dealt with his travels in Central and South America, but his latest publication takes on a different tone. In doing so, Nelson says the book’s title reflects the growing honesty he used in crafting it. “My original intention with this project was to reveal more of myself, and I believed that if I was going to do so, I had to show all of my stripes, whether they were pleasing, embarrassing, or just plain ugly,” the 31-year-old said. Nelson had completed more than 15 stories for this book when he found out that his father, Jay Nelson, had been diagnosed with Stage 4 pancreatic cancer in last October. Chapters 18-25 of “Those Darn Stripes” deal with Nelson’s life after receiving the news. “I was with him every day until he passed away,” Nelson said. “I’m very lucky to have had those last four months with him.” Nelson graduated from the University of Minnesota with a bachelor’s in journalism and Spanish Studies in 2003. He lives in Bloomington with his girlfriend, Alyssa Nier. Nelson met Nier on a Habitat for Humanity trip to Guatemala in 2010. The two had never met before, but ended up spending roughly 36 hours alone together during layovers and the flight to Central America, Nier said. They’ve been inseparable ever since. “I love it,” Nier said of the book. “Every time I read it, it makes me cry because I think of his dad.” Nier said Nelson pays attention to the details in stories, which give them a personal touch. “He actually goes through his stories and counts how many times he used cer-

tain words,” Nier said. “He really plays around with the words to make the story.” Writing the book helped Nelson come to terms with what he had felt during those last few months of his dad’s life. The book was largely written as tribute to his dad, whom he also dedicated it to. He encourages people to read the book to understand the impact his father had on his son’s life. “I feel the world lost this wonderful man, and I wanted to share that with the readers,” Nelson said. Lena Luckritz met Nelson when the two studied abroad in Venezuela in 2002 as college students. She said the honesty and emotion he put into this novel should resonate with readers. “I think it’s an excellent book,” Luckritz said. “Anyone can really relate to it – anyone going through loss of any kind. It’s comforting to read it.” Nelson had worked for the St. Paul Public Schools foundation between November 2009 to December 2010 as part of the Volunteers in Service to America program. There, he met Andra Bosneag and the two became friends over common interests of crossword puzzles and drinking lots of coffee, Bosneag said. She has read his previous books, and thinks his latest work displays Nelson’s growth as an author over the past few years. “His writing style has matured, and the stories involving his father have such strong emotional holds that you feel as if you’ve known Jay all your life,” Bosneag said. As for a future project, Nelson said he has written a few chapters of a novel, his first foray into fiction writing. “My dad always told me I should try fiction out, too,” Nelson said. “This is my new challenge. It’s quite new to me, actually.” Ultimately, Nelson hopes this book honors his dad, who he considers to be his mentor, and whose wisdom he has taken to heart. “He was my best friend,” Nelson said. “I talked to him every day. He wore his heart on his sleeve and he was a very proud man. What you saw is what you got with my dad. I hope to reach that level of self-confidence someday.” “Those Darn Stripes” can be purchased online at amazon.com or barnesandnoble.com.

‘Democratic Visions’ lineup announced A likely State government shutdown and Minnesota’s legislature are the two central issues headlining the current edition of “Democratic Visions.” The DFL cable and internet video program features the perspectives of guests State Representative Melissa Hortman, DFL47B, and AM950 talk radio’s Nancy Nelson. Hortman, 4th term legislator from Maple Grove, is a DFL House minority whip. Comments from Minnetonka DFL Representative John Benson and Hopkins and St. Louis Park DFL Rep. Steve Simon are included in the Hortman segment. This month, the Democratic Visions Channel on YouTube features an exclusive conversation between O’Brien and Nelson on the bills that DFL Gov. Mark Dayton vetoed. The two defend Dayton’s vetoes citing what they claim would be the bills’ harmful effect on Minnesotans and the state’s economic growth. Volunteers through DFL Senate District 42 produce “Democratic Visions.” The program can be seen in Hopkins,

Minnetonka, Edina, Richfield and Eden Prairie on Channel 15 9 p.m. Sundays and 5:30 p.m. Wednesdays.

Free ‘dry humor’ comedy show is July 3 in New Hope BY SUE WEBBER • SUN NEWSPAPERS Wild Bill Bauer is taking a chance that plenty of people may be doing “staycations” for the coming July 4th weekend. He figures they will be looking for something fun to do. Bauer will be emceeing “Dry Humor – The Sobriety Show,” 8 p.m. Sunday, July 3, at the New Hope Cinema Grill, 2749 Winnetka Ave. N., New Hope. The price is right. Admission is free, though Bauer will pass the hat to collect money for the comedians he’s booked – Kathy Ladman and Michael Thorne, plus Bauer himself and “a couple of surprise guests.” “I’m asking the owner of the New Hope Cinema Grill to give up his liquor sales for a night,” said Bauer, who celebrated his own 27th anniversary of being “clean and sober” on June 17. “I stopped even thinking about drinking 15 years ago,” he said. But, he said, “A lot of guys have just quit drinking, and a lot of them don’t have jobs. I’ve given that a lot

of thought. Google sober entertainment sometime, and you’ll be surprised how little pops up. If you’re sober, your entertainment options are limited to movies.” Bauer grew up in the Twin Cities, attended DeLaSalle High School and the University of Minnesota and always was a fan of comedy. Actor/comedian Tom Arnold was one of his early sidekicks, along with Alex Cole. Bauer, Arnold, Cole and comedians Louie Anderson and Scott Hanson appeared together early on, Bauer said. “I went to Los Angeles for seven years then and enjoyed it,” Bauer said. “But unless you’re a star, it’s not fun to live in LA.” He’s been back in the Twin Cities for 10 years, doing comedy shows, including some national shows. Bauer is a radio favorite on the nationally syndicated “Bob and Tom Show,” which is broadcast “everywhere except the Twin Cities,” he said. He has more than 25 national television appearances on NBC, ABC,

MTV, Showtime, Comedy Central, and A&E. Bauer most recently appeared on a Louie Anderson comedy special. He has written episodes of “Valdez” and “The Jackie Thomas Show” (one of Tom Arnold’s sitcoms). He also did a script re-write for the movie “Carpool.” Bauer is proud of the audiences that have built up slowly at the New Hope Cinema Grill’s weekend comedy club. “Last October, we got 20 or 30 people a night,” Bauer said. “Now we’re getting more than 100 people every weekend.” Beginning in October, the Saturday-only format will be expanded to include Friday nights, as well. Louie Anderson has performed at the New Hope Cinema Grill twice and will be back again in April 2012, Bauer said. In the meantime, he’s hoping the “Dry Humor Sobriety Show” will draw a big audience. “I hope it’s successful enough so we can do it again,” Bauer said.

Airports commission to host informational meetings in July The Metropolitan Airports Commission is in the process of preparing a Federal Environmental Assessment and a State Environmental Assessment Worksheet to evaluate the environmental effects of proposed development at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport to meet the forecasted need of the metropolitan area through the year 2020. Two open houses will be held to provide information to the public concerning the aviation activity forecast and potential development alternatives to meet the purpose and need for the project. At 5-8 p.m., Wednesday, July 13, Eagan Community Center, 1501 Central Parkway, Eagan, and 5-8 p.m., Thursday, July 14, Washburn High School, 201 W. 49th St., Minneapolis, information detailing the environmental review process and identifying future opportunities for public involvement will also be available.

Take safety measures when using fireworks The Independence Day holiday brings many backyard celebrations and fireworks displays. Several guidelines should be followed when using pyrotechnics. “Nothing that is legal in this state should explode or fly,” according to Bloomington Fire Chief Ulie Seal. “If it

goes bang or boom, it’s illegal.” Legal fireworks in Minnesota include wire or wood sparklers, a variety of fountains that emit sparks or smoke, including devices that spin on the ground or attached to a post or tree by a nail or a string, and illuminating torches. Illegal fireworks include firecrackers of any size, rockets and Roman candles. Although there are legal fireworks in Minnesota, their use is prohibited on public property, according to the state fire marshal’s website. Following a wet spring, it is less likely fireworks will start a grass fire this year, but it’s still important to have a water source handy to extinguish fireworks or anything that ignites as a result of fireworks, according to Seal. And safety precautions should be taken when using fireworks, including “parental supervision for the kids,” he added.

Climate film showing July 7 in Edina The film “Gasland” will be shown 7 p.m. Thursday, July 7, at Southdale Library, 7001 York Ave. S., Edina, as part of the Climate SOS Film Series. The documentary, which was nominated for an Academy Award, examines the safety of a natural gas extraction technique known as hydraulic fracturing or fracking. People in several states reported that their tap water became flammable after fracking was done near their homes. Fracking has greatly expanded in recent years, due in part because natural gas drilling was exempted from the Safe Drinking Water Act of 2005.

Eden Prairie doctor saves life at gym, spreads heart health tips BY PAUL GROESSEL • SUN NEWSPAPERS It happens to people you know. For those attending a recent forum hosted by the Association of Minnesota Chinese Physicians, sudden cardiac arrest happened to someone they knew. The association honored Dr. Wang Hengbin of Eden Prairie for saving a man’s life June 11 at the Central Middle School gymnasium in Eden Prairie, and many of the forum attendees were there when it happened. So, with a captive audience, members of the association and an assistant Eden Prairie fire chief honored Hengbin, demonstrated life-saving techniques and shared heart disease prevention tips during a forum Thursday, June 23, at the Eden Prairie Library. The audience mostly consisted of parents of students who are part of the Huaxia Chinese School, which rents the middle school’s gym space on Saturdays. It was during a volleyball game that a man, who has not been identified for privacy reasons, collapsed during the game. Hengbin was playing as well, and he saw the man fall. While someone called 911 and someone else ran to get the automated external defibrillator, Hengbin immediately gave the man a chest hit and administered CPR, he said.

“He had no pulse. Unresponsive. No spontaneous breathing,” Hengbin said after the forum. Those are the signs of sudden cardiac arrest, not a heart attack, which is usually caused by a blockage to the heart. An AED treats dangerously overworking heart beats, so in conditions such as this, CPR is required to get a pulse, then an AED can be used. That’s what Hengbin did. He said he performed CPR for three minutes before the man got a pulse, and then he used the AED, which shocked the man’s heart back to a normal rhythm. The ordeal took about five minutes, and the man was up a minute before the first responders arrived. Had Hengbin and the AED not been in the gym, it could have been a different story. An AED sends an electric charge to the heart, using two pads that are put on the victim’s chest, on either side of the heart. The electric charge usually brings a dangerously over-working heart back to its natural rhythm. Using an AED is simple; it does not require training, but it would be helpful, said association president Dr. Hongsheng Guo. The AED itself actually talks. It guides a user through the process with loud, short commands to get through a four-step process: Turn it on; attach the pads; wait; shock.

“You don’t need training or anything,” Guo said to forum attendees. “If you came here, you’re qualified.” Assistant Eden Prairie Fire Chief Steve Koering said, as a first responder to many medical calls, the fire department doesn’t deploy an AED for seniors only. They have had to use it on people of all ages, from children to senior citizens. All city buildings, including schools, have an AED inside, and now the city is on a campaign to get them in area businesses, Koering said. “You can’t be afraid to grab it off the wall. Deploy it, and put it to use,” he said. Cardiac arrest usually follows ventricular tachycardia, VT, and ventricular fibrillation, VF, both conditions where the heart beats too fast for effective blood pumping. These are “life threatening rhythm problems,” Guo said. They are so life threatening that VT and VF precede 90 percent of sudden cardiac arrest cases, Guo said. Every minute of SCA can decrease the chances of survival by 8-10 percent. SCA is also a contributor to the leading cause of death in the United States, which is heart disease. In 2007, heart disease killed 616,067 people in the United States, the leading cause of death, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

World Peace FROM PAGE 1 site of Bdote on June 18. The Peace Ride illustrates the challenges of allowing indigenous people to express their faith in a world of permits and obstacles that may restrict such activities according to Smith. The horseback ride was organized to honor Tail Feather Woman, whose vision and cultural influence following the Battle of Little Bighorn is considered to have had a significant bearing on the indigenous people of today, according to the event’s website. The location of World Peace and Prayer Day has many meanings and is considered sacred by members of indigenous communities. According to Smith, Bdote is the site of creation and genocide for the Dakota people. Bdote is considered the center of the earth and the place where the Mdewakanton Dakota people originated, according to oral traditions collected by the Minnesota Humanities Center. In the 1860s, the Dakota people survived WORLD PEACE: TO NEXT PAGE

AirBroom Minnesota In Excelsior Can Help

How does your chimney look? Are the bricks crumbling? Does it have White or Black exterior staining? Are you afraid to use your fireplace because you’re not sure how safe it is? When was the last time you used it? The professionals at AirBroom Minnesota Fireplace and Air Duct Cleaning in Excelsior can restore both your confidence and your chimney. Did you know that water causes more damage to masonry chimneys than fire? Your chimney, unlike other parts of your house, is constantly exposed to the elements. They are generally constructed of brick, mortar, tile, steel, and iron. All of these materials suffer deterioration as a result of prolonged contact with water. Freeze and thaw cycles so familiar here in the Twin Cities cause stress on the chimney. Water that has penetrated expands and contracts. Left unchecked it will cause interior and exterior damage to your home and masonry chimney. Some of the damage that can be caused includes: 1) spalled and broken exterior brickwork, 2) deteriorated masonry and metal firebox assemblies, 3) rusted dampers, 4) decayed mortar, cracked or missing flue liners, and in the worst case scenario damage to adjoining walls, ceilings, woodwork. and There are three main ways to prevent water damage. 1) Install a chimney cap. This is the most inexpensive measure to prevent water penetration to the flue and inside chimney elements. We sell and install locally manufactured caps for as little as $99. 2) Repair or replace a damaged chimney crown. The crown sits atop your chimney and covers and seals it from the flue liners to the chimney edge. Many chimneys are built with an inadequate crown constructed from common mortar mix. Mortar is not designed for and will not withstand years of prolonged moisture exposure without cracking and chipping which allows water to penetrate the chimney. A proper crown

is constructed of a Portland cement mixture and formed to provide an overhang drip edge. This assures the water will shed helping to prevent erosion in the mortar and brick of the chimneys surfaces. Keeping the crown “watertight” and shedding away from the sponge like masonry elements that the chimney is built of is the most important element to preventing deterioration. At AirBroom Minnesota we use the industry leading line of Saver products to build and repair chimneys. Use of these products allows us to pass on manufacturers material warranties of up to 15 years to our clients. 3) Waterproof your masonry chimney and crown. Most masonry is porous and will absorb large amounts of water. Brick acts like a sponge absorbing water and wicking it to the chimney interior. Products we use are specifically developed for use as waterproofing agents on masonry chimneys. These are vapor permeable – which means they allow the masonry to breath out but not in. This allows water that has penetrated the chimney to escape while preventing additional water from entering from the outside. Non vapor permeable sealers commonly available should never be used because they trap moisture inside actually accelerating deterioration. We use a special permeable sealer with a 10 year consumer warranty to protect your chimney. Doing this before deterioration occurs can save you hundreds or even thousands of dollars in future repairs. Water damage to chimneys is usually a slow subtle process. The problem is generally not obvious until it has become quite serious. Although these prevention measures may cost you a few dollars they can save you a lot more by preventing large future masonry repairs. The Hartmann’s at AirBroom Minnesota in Excelsior offer free no obligation repair estimates in the Western Metro area. Call John, Jim, or Lynda today to arrange a free no obligation estimate. Visit us at AirBroomMinnesota.com or call us at 952.545.2254. As a bonus, repair jobs over $750 scheduled with us prior to May 31st receive $100 off when you mention this article.

World Peace FROM PREVIOUS PAGE imprisonment in concentration camps and forced removal at the site. “One of the most memorable acts of healing during World Peace and Prayer Day was on Monday,” Smith said. During open forum, in front of the Sacred Fire, a lineal descendent of a soldier involved in the Dakota 38 hanging in Mankato, that marked the end of the Dakota War of 1862, apologized about what her ancestor had been a part of said Smith. The apology was accepted and the descendent and the rest of her family were blessed to allow for the healing to begin. “In the end the forgiveness is a precursor for what can happen in our state,” Smith said. Smith’s involvement began in 2006 and since she has been serving as an unofficial neutral mediator between government officials and nonprofit leaders, First Nations Elders and young adults in an effort to create the Bdote Peace Park around the Fort Snelling historical sites in St. Paul, Minneapolis and Mendota. As a result of her work, Chief Looking Horse nominated Smith for the

(Photo by Billie Jo Rassat • Sun Newspapers) 2011 Nobel Peace Prize. “Everyone has role in healing. You

can invite it for dialogue or just listen, but each of us have a role that we can

play,” Smith said. Other events at World Peace and Prayer Day included informational speakers from Japan, New Zealand, South Africa, England and Canada, musical concerts, informational seminars on sustainability practices, artists’ workshops, performances and workshops from the New Native Theater, gathering on Mendota Bridge for the “Hug for Peace” and a proclamation reading by city official Debbie Goettel. “The 2011 Bdote Peace Accord is a proclamation committing to four years of community healing and peace by expressing the commitment to support peaceful dialogue related to Sacred Sites with the hope of bringing physical health, wellness and wholeness to all those who live in Minnesota, the hope of healing relationships, and with the vision for replicating this model across North America,” recited Goettel. After the reading the proclamation was signed by Looking Horse; Smith; Kjell Bondevick, executive director, Oslo Center for Peace and Human Rights; Orlyn Kringstad, executive director, Oslo Center for Peace and Human Rights; Larry Zilliox, Rotary District 5950 District Governor; and Goettel. Although attendances were lower than expected, World Peace and Prayer Day 2011 was “poignant and meaningful,” said Smith.

Schools FROM PAGE 1 Consulting Advisor Don Lifto gave the board much to talk about. The survey involved 400 telephone interviews between April 21-27, asking questions such as: Would you favor or oppose a proposal by the Richfield Public Schools that asks voters to renew and increase its existing operating levy this November? With only a 4.5 percent margin of error, the results were 59.5 percent in favor, 30.8 percent opposed and only 9.8 percent undecided. The total results complied by the survey concluded with a recommendation by Springsted that the tax on a home valued at $185,800 be set with an additional $119. “The referendum will be asking the community to revoke the present levy and replace it with what the levy currently is plus $119 more,” Schwartz said.

marijuana in his pocket. The officer conducted a pat down and located a small baggie of marijuana. Charges are pending upon suspects cooperation with Special Investigations Unit. The marijuana weighed 20.3 grams without packaging. June 18 — A victim reported a former girlfriend of one of his friends has been contacting numerous people, including him, trying to get money. She has been sending numerous text messages, threatening to make false allegations if they do not assist her. She said she needs an abortion and threatened that she would say he raped her if he did not assist her financially. The victim believe that she is somewhere in Iowa. The officer, taking the report, attempted to make contact with the suspect with negative results. The officer then sent a text message indicating that the victim had notified the police and gave her the case number and the Richfield police phone number. The police responded to the 7400 block of Cedar Avenue South on a weapons complaint. The officers obtained information that three suspects robbed and assaulted the victim, two of which brandished pistols. The victim was struck three times by one of the pistols and robbed of money, cell phone and possibly narcotics. The suspects have not been located or positively identified at this time.

The important thing to remember is that a house worth more or less than $185,800 would pay more or less than $119 said Schwartz. Supt. Robert Slotterback also endorsed the recommendation by Springsted. If a new levy were adopted, the projected fund would bring 1.9 million dollars into the Richfield school system, according to Schwartz. During the work session Slotterback said that the district has cut all that it can from activities, maintenance and administration that the only thing left would be to cut people and increase class size. While a new and increased referendum would not guarantee any more teacher layoffs it would help during the economic crunch, said Slotterback. At the study session, the school board decided they needed more information from other committees and resources to discuss all of their options. The board will address the issue at their upcoming meeting, Monday, July 11 at 7 p.m.

Markworth’s contract officially starts on July 1, but she is raring to go; already meeting with staff, attending leadership conferences and reviewing curriculum. “We are ready to rock and roll,” Markworth said.

The program features a full, nutritionally balanced, sit-down style lunch with varied menu options. The service can cater to special diets, like for those with diabetes. “Here you can get one good meal a day, because often when seniors are living alone they end up not eating,” Pafko said. The Richfield Senior Dining program is a branch from the Minnesota Association of Senior Nutrition Services, whose motto is to ensure the well being of older adults in their own community with nutritious meals, education and

“This is the first job I ever liked so much. The people are so nice and kind,” Chang said. Two years ago, because of

low attendance numbers, Chang’s hours were cut in half and her benefits were taken away. Since then, in an effort to boost the participation, Chang has introduced special dining days. At the end of each month, birthdays are celebrated and during June and into July, bingo is being played to entice more to come. On June 22, Richfield Mayor Debbie Goettel sung “Happy Birthday,” while joining the dining seniors as they celebrated all the June birthdays. Laughing and joking with the seniors, Goettel noted they all eat their deserts first because no one is around to scold them for spoiling their meals. “This program is the greatest program. It means more to us than anyone can ever know. I believe it really prolongs lives,” long-time attendee Lorraine Kashmark said. For more information or to view a sample menu, visit bit.ly/kLnZ2e.

For 22 years the all-volunteer Spartan Foundation has provided funding for youth programs in Richfield. It started when a few friends got together for a golf tournament at the old Rich Acres Course. Their goal was to raise a few thousand dollars to help youth. At the Spartan Foundation banquet, which followed the annual golf fundraiser June 20, foundation president Bill Davis said, “Tonight we celebrate everything that’s right in Richfield. “Some of you have played in most, if not all, of these golf tournaments. And we appreciate your support. Since we started, we have raised more than $175,000 for the youth of Richfield.”

“This is a special and unique day,” said Richfield High athletic director Todd Olson. “My wife Lisa and I couldn’t be prouder of the experience our three kids had in Richfield schools. It is a phenomenal school system, and the support for kids has always been there. Richfield is a very special place.” Volunteers, who have helped provide for the youth of Richfield, were honored during the June 20 banquet at Crystal Lake Golf Course in Lakeville. Ernie and Jeanne Lindstrom were honored with the Spartan Foundation’s annual Distinguished Service Award. “Nobody has worked harder for the kids in the community than the Lindstroms,” said former Richfield High boys hockey coach Jake McCoy. “Ernie Lindstom wants to make sure that every kid has a chance to participate, whether it’s through athletics or playing an instrument in the band,” said FUNDRAISER: TO PAGE 32

The most outstanding female and male athletes in the Class of 2011 at Richfield High were honored during the Spartan Foundation banquet June 20 at Crystal Lake Golf Course. Kelsey Metz, Richfield’s Athena Award winner, was All-Classic

Suburban Conference four times in gymnastics and three times in diving. As a senior, she placed fourth in diving at the state meet. “Kelsey had a great high school career,” said Richfield High athletic director Todd Olson. “We are very proud of what Kelsey accomplished as a student and an athlete. She was also a 4.0 student, people’s editor of the yearbook and a Special Olympics volunteer.” Metz will attend Winona State

University in the fall and plans to major in nursing. Zak Beaudet, winner of the Tom Spooner Memorial Award as Richfield’s most outstanding male athlete, won 10 letters in three sports. “Zak ranked fifth in the senior class academically,” said Olson. “He plans to study mechanical engineering at the University of STUDENTS: TO PAGE 32

Richfield Hall of Fame adds three athletes and coach Belkengren Inductees share stories of their glory days BY JOHN SHERMAN • SUN NEWSPAPERS Each year at the Spartan Foundation banquet, new members are inducted into the Richfield High School Athletic Hall of Fame. Four new members shared memories of their glory days June 20 at Crystal Lake Golf Course in Lakeville. The new members are former Spartan athletes Paul Franzmeier, Steve Garske and Ann Mathews and former coach Sandy “Sam” Belkengren. Franzmeier, a 1978 RHS graduate, won the Tom Spooner Memorial Award as the school’s most outstanding male athlete in his senior year. He was All-State and All-Lake Conference in football and then went

on to play four years of football at the University of North Dakota. “Wow, this is rich,” Franzmeier told the banquet audience. “I mean that from the bottom of my heart.” Franzmeier is a pastor at Faith Christian Church in New London, Wis. He said one of his goals is to help that community become a community like Richfield, one that supports youth causes and programs. Garske, a 1980 RHS graduate, followed in Franzmeier’s footsteps as a football standout. After three years of football at RHS, he played four more seasons at North Dakota State University. “This is an honor,” said Garske. “I would like to thank all of the parents who volunteered their time to coach me … and a special thanks to my parents who never missed a game.” Garske also thanked RHS assistant football coach Mike Plinske, who had

the foresight to move Garske from defensive tackle to linebacker. During Garske’s senior year at RHS, one sportswriter referred to him as “the Dick Butkus of the Lake Conference.” Mathews, a 1996 RHS graduate, made her mark as a three-sport athlete in tennis, hockey and softball. She played five years of varsity tennis, played on the inaugural RHS girls hockey team and helped the Spartan softball team to a state berth. “I have so many memorable moments,” she told the audience. “State softball was obviously a highlight. Coach Kim Niederluecke taught us what kind of work is required to follow in the Richfield tradition, and whenever we wanted to practice more, the coaches always said yes.” Niederluecke had an opportunity to introduce Mathews and said, “Ann was never one to sit in the back of the class-

room. She was up front, taking it all in. “As an athlete, she had great eyehand coordination. She let her intelligence guide her choices.” Belkengren was a pioneer in promoting girls sports in the Richfield schools. She was a head coach in girls track and field, girls tennis and boys tennis. “It has been a rocky but rewarding path to the present,” she said, regarding her advocacy of girls sports. “I found that if you speak up, good things happen.” What was Belkengren’s coaching philosophy? “It’s all about the kids,” she said. Niederluecke broke in under Belkengren’s tutelage and is now considered one of the most successful softball coaches in the state. “I always appreciated Sam’s perspective and her passion for coaching,” said Niederluecke. “I learned a lot from her. She loved her students.”

who made a significant contribution through their volunteer efforts and their work with the Richfield Foundation. Warren Amundson, Fran Kiedrowski and Adler Strandquist had all played in the foundation’s golf tournament. Golf was a passion for Kiedrowski, a former Minneapolis Edison High athlete who joined Rich Acres the first year the public course opened near the airport. His advice to all golfers was simple: “Just hit it straight.” He gave that advice to everyone he met, from the beginners at Rich Acres to the popular comedian and movie star Bob Hope. Kiedrowski was Hope’s caddy when the entertainer played in a local tournament at Midland Hills in the 1950s.

Reader Advisory: The National Trade Association we belong to has purchased the above classifieds. Determining the value of their service or product is advised by this publication. In order to avoid misunderstandings, some advertisers do not offer employment but rather supply the readers with manuals, directories and other materials designed to help their clients establish mail order selling and other businesses at home. Under NO circumstance should you send any money in advance or give the client your checking, license ID, or credit card numbers. Also beware of ads that claim to guarantee loans regardless of credit and note that if a credit repair company does business only over the phone it is illegal to request any money before delivering its service.
