Sticking it out to the final round

in with the new Basketball court cut to make room for new skate park at Augsburg Park

BY BILLIE JO RASSAT • SUN NEWSPAPERS Richfield’s Augsburg Park is losing a basketball court, but gaining a skate park.

At the May 10 Richfield City Council meeting, the council voted four to one to begin negotiations toward a contract with Hardcore Skateparks, Inc., to build a concrete skateboard facility in the park.

The Community Services Commission presented the idea for a skate park.

“We been working on this for three years and it feels good to complete the design concept and move forward,” Recreation Services Director Jim Topitzhofer said.

The design concept of the facility includes the use of the current basketball court at the east end and would allow the new skate park to use the rest of the court as is or for future expansion, according Topitzhofer.

Augsburg Park was chosen for scoring the highest, in location, by the commission’s site selection criteria and scoring program.

All of the parks in Richfield were measured on a scoring system for criteria such as: having an existing hard surface court that is used to a lesser extent compared to other Richfield courts, being visible for public safety personnel, having a residential buffer, having separation from other park uses, in a centralized location and having a close proximity to restrooms and water facilities.

Council member Fred Wroge voted against the measure, saying he did not want

Teachers show students what they’ve learned Educators from the Richfield STEM school exhibit the results of engineering program

BY BILLIE JO RASSAT • SUN NEWSPAPERS ‘Make it Move,’ proves teachers are never done learning.

On May 11, at the Richfield STEM School, an event called ‘Make it Move’ featured faculty demonstrating five engineering projects as part of their completion of the St. Catherine Elementary Engineering Certification Program.

The projects on display for students, families, district staff and community members were ‘Birthday Party, ‘Raise the Flag,’ ‘The Fork Finder,’ ‘The Wonderful Plant Watering Wizard,’ and ‘White Board Wipe-Out.’ According to the University of St. Catherine instructors Yvonne Ng and Lori Maxfield, the purpose for the projects was for the teacher to gain an understanding of the nature of engi-

neering, to appreciate what engineers do and to gain a sense of accomplishment.

The teachers who participated in the fair and completing the certification at St. Catherine University are: Bobbie Nelson, kindergarten; Kirstin Gulland, kindergarten; Carrie Allen, first grade; Judy Cowdery, first grade; Molly Ericson, first grade; Diane Provost, second grade; Melissa McKeand, second grade; Sue Peploe, second grade; Barb Thies, third grade; Sandy Stone, third grade; Laurie Suttion, ESL tearcher; Gary Schuette, gifted and talented teacher; Bethann Larson, fifth grade; Chris Awbrey, forth grade; Diane Erdmann, forth grade; Chris Pregler, fifth grade; Rosie Pregler, forth grade; Nancy Anderson, forth grade; Barb Sharpe, fifth grade; and Sandy Sandvig, fifth grade. “Research shows that an inspiring and informed teacher is a critical factor when it comes to influencing student achievement, the Richfield Public Schools have paid close attention to how we wanted to train and support teachers at the Richfield STEM School,�

Richfield students help clean up the park Richfield Duel Language School adopts, cleans up Christian Park

BY BILLIE JO RASSAT • SUN NEWSPAPERS In hopes to make the world a better place the Richfield Duel Language School adopted Christian Park on 6900 Bloomington Ave. The school held a cleanup in the park on May 7.

For two hours, students, their families and school staff picked up empty bottles, wrappers and other trash — including a tire — to fill five garbage bags, according to organizer and mother Megan Ritchie.

“It was fun cleaning up, having a great time with my friends and seeing what we could find,” third-grade student Maddy Gibbs said.

Principal Luis Versalles was very happy the weather finally cooperated and everyone involved had a great time helping clean the park.

It takes a lot to reach 30 years My parents will celebrate their 30th wedding anniversary Sunday, May 22.

Thirty years.

That, my friends, is a LOT of years. Don’t tell my folks, but my siblings and I have been planning a surprise party.

Again, don't tell ’em. I’m trusting you on this. We’ve all got to keep it quiet.

But anyway, I was working on the guest list, which included members of the family, friends from church, work and otherwise, even the dogs, and I got to thinking about how long 30 years really is and the dedication and resolve it must take to remain together that long.

Think about it: how many of us can claim we’ve done any-

DANIEL CALLAHAN Richfield Sun-Current Managing Editor

thing continuously for, say, five years or two years or even a year? Heck, I couldn’t even finish writing up the guest list without hopping over to a computer to start typing out a column.

We’re flighty people these days, or at least I know I am.

Sticking to anything is tough for most. Things just change so quickly and we’re all along for the ride. I’ve got friends who, in far less than 30 years, have had

multiple careers and more than one marriage. That is a whole litany of sweeping changes.

I’m not saying you have to stay the exact same way, doing the exact same thing, but sticking with something doesn’t mean being inflexible. For example, I know a fellow down in Arizona who’s worked in newspaper backshops since he was 13 years old. To give some perspective on my friend’s age, he frequently liked to remind me, as he lit a cigarette behind the press building, that his Zippo lighter was older than me.

He’s put in a solid half-century doing the same job at only a few different newspapers. He’s a typesetter by trade, and while both he and the job have

changed some over the years, he’s adapted to it and gets the paper out each day with the same clockwork efficiency on a computer as he did when it was hot type.

In the same vein, I’m fairly certain my folks are not the same people they were when they first got married. They’ve lived, changed and grown over time to be the people they are today. That’s perseverance, and, of course, they did it together.

I’m no marriage expert, and don’t pretend to be an expert on anything, actually, but it seems to me that experiencing 30 years of life together is one heck of a thing.

Congratulations, Mom and Dad.

Stone’s patience and professionalism has been a blessing to all of her students, parents and an example to her colleagues.

She always exhibits high expectations for each student to meet their potential and become successful citizens.

Besides the three R’s she also taught social skills, respect for others, critical thinking, problem solving and personal responsibility. I have appreciated her enthusiasm, dedication, positive attitude, willingness to help and ready smile.

Her students and parents are fortunate to have had a caring, competent, effective and experienced teacher. Much continued success in the coming years.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Thank you, Fred Wroge To the editor: Thank you, Fred Wroge.

At the recent Richfield City Council meeting the question of putting in a tier-one skateboard park in Augsburg Park was discussed.

Fred Wroge questioned the planning commission on their data and location choice and the commission admitted the data sheet they distributed, backing their decision, was flawed as well as based on incorrect locations within the parks.

Yet our mayor and the remaining council members voted to continue anyway despite knowing the site selection was based on personal pref-

erence and not what was best for Richfield. So, residents of Richfield, we may be losing the basketball court so they can put in a skateboard park.

Wasn’t there a portion of the criteria requiring separation from other park uses?

Apparently to our mayor and a majority of council members removing one use counts as separation.

I am not opposed to a skateboard park but the location should be based on more than personal preference and politics as usual.

I encourage Richfield residents to seek out video of the meeting, as it is very informative. Only Mr. Wroge actually asked questions that seemed thoughtful.

Mr. Wroge, thank you for

Congratulations to Mrs. Stone To the editor: Congratulations to Mrs. Sandy Stone for 25 great years of teaching and service to the Richfield Public Schools.

I am grateful to have had the opportunity to work with her for 20 of those years. I learned so much from her.

Her passion for teaching, dealing with all levels of competency and talent brought the best out of each student over the years.

Uncontrolled intersections really grind my gears Adding yield or stop signs increases safety

BY SETH ROWE • SUN NEWSPAPERS You know what really grinds my gears? Uncontrolled intersections.

I don’t actually have gears in my Honda Civic Hybrid but rather an infinite number of effective gear ratios in its continuously variable transmission, but the point here is they’re wearing down my brakes.

Twice in recent weeks I’ve been winding through curvy intersections in St. Louis Park casually minding my company’s business when I discovered that while I did not have a stop sign, neither did vehicles coming from other directions.

Thus, I have twice had to slam on my brakes in recent weeks upon learning receiving quite quickly this revelation.

Once the breakthrough hit me at a Tintersection but I had already slowed to a crawl anyway. The other time, I realized the driver of a purple sport utility vehicle coming toward me at a nearly 90degree angle had no intention of stopping. Fortunately, my brakes are still in reasonably decent working condition and I avoided a collision, but I recalled that I have been meaning to write a column on the matter for years.

Back in yester-decade, I wrote for the Richfield Sun-Current when uncontrolled intersections became nearly as controversial as the city’s locally renowned roundabouts.

In 2006, I wrote that a proposal to eliminate uncontrolled intersections in Richfield through the use of stop signs “led to a minor collision of opinions.” In a pun-filled article introduction, I revealed that the suggestion’s momentum had “ground to a halt.”

The issue is a very serious one,

though. The Richfield controversy arose after a traffic fatality occurred at an uncontrolled intersection. Vast residential areas of Richfield at the time lacked right-of-way signs or signals at intersections. A city study of the nearly 200 uncontrolled intersections in Richfield between 1997 and 2001 found that the crash rate at uncontrolled intersections was 60 percent higher than at controlled intersections.

When the Richfield City Council considered installing stop signs at uncontrolled intersections, some residents and officials initially opposed the move because they did not want to come to a complete stop at intersections in their neighborhoods.

“Once you put up all those signs up and people say, ‘This is crazy, we’re starting and stopping all the time,’ now it’s hard to take them down,” said Marty Kirsch, the city’s mayor at the time.

“Stop signs don’t always do what you

think they will because there’s evidence of people who just roll right through them.”

However, he joined a unanimous council decision to add new stop signs to several uncontrolled intersections later in 2006.

The result?

A University of Minnesota statistical analysis of about two years of data found the stop signs added in Richfield in 2006 led to vehicles traveling at slower speeds and half the automobile crashes.

The Richfield City Council responded by ordering the installation of 176 stop signs.

Knowing when another vehicle has to stop intuitively strikes me as safer than not knowing. Frankly, I generally anticipate that if I do not see a stop sign or stop light, I have the right of way.

trolled intersection is startling.

Even graveled streets in the village of Wildrose, N.D., where I lived as a young child, had stop signs at intersections. If coming to a stop at intersections is really such a burden, I would suggest the method used in another town I lived in during my childhood, Blooming Prairie, Minn.

In addition to making its streets near-

ly wide enough to park a semitrailer crosswise – an idea that would have benefited Minneapolis and its suburbs in areas – the town used yield signs instead of stop signs along residential side streets with even lower traffic volumes than Blooming Prairie’s main streets.

Under this brilliant scheme, drivers knew they had to give way to vehicles on cross streets but did not actually have to come to a complete stop at intersections if no one presented an obstacle; they could use what my mother used to refer to as a “California Stop” instead.

Just imagine the brakes – or gears for the standard transmission vehicles still

on the roads – that could be saved through such an ingenious solution?

In the meantime here is the law in Minnesota regarding uncontrolled intersections: When two motorists approach an uncontrolled intersection at about the same time, the driver of the vehicle on the left should yield to the vehicle on its right. At uncontrolled T-intersections, the driver that is required to turn should yield to other traffic. Drivers should

Cirque du Soleil comes to Bloomington

BY MIKE HANKS • SUN NEWSPAPERS It’s a circus unlike any other, and for its return to Minnesota, it will call Bloomington its home.

Cirque du Soleil returns next week with “Ovo,� a touring show featuring acrobatic storytelling set to music and performed under a blue and yellow big top tent in the north parking lot at Mall of America. The Montrealbased theater group tours the world with arena and tent shows, finding its way to Minnesota about once every two years with a new big top production. Ovo has been in production since April 2009 and has a busy schedule that will keep its performers and crew on the road months beyond the four weekends and three weeks of performances in Bloomington. “There’s no end in sight yet,� according to Peter de Baaij, the tour manager for the production.

Ovo, which means egg in Portuguese, explores a colorful ecosystem where insects work, eat,

If you go What: Cirque du Soleil’s “Ovo�

When: Friday, May 27 through Sunday, June 19 (dark Mondays) Where: North parking lot, Mall of America, Bloomington Tickets: cirquedusoleil.com/ovo or 1-800450-1480. crawl, flutter, play, fight and look for love. When a mysterious egg appears, the insects are awestruck and curious about the iconic object that represents the enigma and cycles of their lives.

The production’s 54 performers, including nine musicians, will bring the story to life under the Cirque du Soleil big top nine times per week.

Another 75 employees, including technicians, tutors for the young performers and three chefs, also make the trek from city to city, de Baaij explained.

Performing six days per week for

an audience of up to 2,580 per show requires extensive preparation before the trucks roll into town, according to de Baaij. Previous Cirque du Soleil productions have set up in Minneapolis and St. Paul. Mall of America’s north parking lot provided adequate space for the traveling show, and de Baaij thinks Ovo will benefit by its proximity to Minnesota’s premiere shopping and entertainment destination.

Regardless of the site chosen for a Cirque du Soleil show, numerous arrangements are made long before the first truck arrives. From cityissued special event permits to housing arrangements for the performers and crew, an advance team puts the pieces in place, de Baaij said. The production generates its own electricity, but it needs access to water and phone lines at each site. In some cases work permits are required since the production employs minors, and parking accommodations are arranged with police and fire departments, he

explained. Cast and crew stay in apartments rather than hotel rooms to give them a semblance of having a home as they travel around the world, he noted.

And in each city ushers, concession stand operators and other jobs are filled by local labor, de Baaij added.

Occasionally the tour schedule includes a break, allowing the cast and crew, including de Baaij, a chance to go home. But “most of the time you’re on the road,� he said. For some, like de Baaij, traveling with Ovo has meant two years of life on the road. “It’s a lifestyle,� the five-time tour manager admits, but it has its benefits. “You get to see the entire world.�

Performances are six days per week, beginning with a preview performance May 26. Evening shows are Tuesday through Sunday with matinee performances Friday through Sunday. The show closes June 19.

Ovo is “truly a family outing,� de Baaij said. “It’s something you never forget.�

Richfield Public Works awarded national recognition

BY BILLIE JO RASSAT SUN NEWSPAPERS “What Richfield does, it does it well,” boasts Richfield Council member Sue Sandahl.

Her praise comes on the heels of Richfield Public Works Department being nationally recognized with two awards.

Director of Public Works for the city of Richfield Mike Eastling has been named as one of the 2011 Top Ten Public Works Leader in the United States from the America Public Works Association.

According to the American Public Works Association, the honorees are awarded for their professionalism, expertise and personal dedication to improving the quality of life in their communities through the advancement of public works services and technology.

Eastling has been employed by the city of Richfield since 1980, first as Assistant City Engineer, then City Engineer and since 1997, the city’s Public Works Director.

As director, Eastling has overall responsibility for providing policy and technical direction for public works services including engineering, streets, forestry, park maintenance, fleet, water, wastewater, and storm water.

“The work that had to be done for the Best Buy headquarters, at Penn and [Interstate] 494 was the most challenging thing I have had to handle,” Eastling said.

Other city projects Eastling was

instrumental in developing were the 77th Street Project from Cedar Avenue to Penn Avenue and Storm Water Management Projects throughout the city.

“I think it is very exciting. I am honored and it is very humbling to receive such a high honor,” Eastling said.

The other award the city of Richfield has been awarded is the Tree City USA 2010 Growth Award.

According to Operations Manager of Streets and Forestry Chris Link, Richfield was the only city in Minnesota to receive this award last year and only ten other cities in Minnesota have received it in the past.

The Arbor Day Foundation provides the Tree City USA Growth Award in cooperation with the National Association of State Foresters and the USDA Forest Service to recognize environmental improvement and encourage higher levels of tree care throughout America.

According to Link, Richfield received high scores on continuing education of tree workers and implementing a tree worker safety program.

“Our workers attend the Shade Tree Short Course every year. We also have three licensed tree inspectors on staff and one International Society of Arboriculture certified arborist on staff.

We have monthly safety meetings for the entire public works department,” Link said.

Couple opens BrightStar center in St. Louis Park

FROM PAGE 12

Rolph and Rebecca Blythe recently opened a new BrightStar, full-service, medical and nonmedical home care and medical staffing agency at 4601 Excelsior Blvd., No. 403, in St. Louis Park.

Their business serves south Minneapolis, St. Louis Park and Edina.

They have purchased another territory from BrightStar and in approximately 6-9 months will begin serving the Bloomington, Richfield and Eden Prairie communities.

Rolph Blythe spent the past 15 years working in book publishing. He worked as a magazine editor, marketing director and a literary agent in New York, Washington, D.C., and Minnesota. Online booksellers and readers of electronic books have led to a tumultuous time in the publishing industry. After the 2008

The city’s aggressive fight against tree diseases such as Dutch Elm disease and Emerald Ash Borer have also led way to this recognition, according to Link.

“This is just a projection of the wonderful and hard work our Public Works staff does to maintain the city,” Richfield Mayor Debbie Goettel said.

The Richfield Public Works Department, led by award-winning managers, are always on top of things, said Goettel.

“It shows we are used to a high level of involvement that when you call Mike Eastling or another city manager is going to call you back,” Goettel said.

economic downturn, Rolph and his wife Rebecca, who has an M.A. in parent and child psychology and spent seven years as a head teacher at a preschool, began looking at business ownership opportunities.

The two were drawn to BrightStar because in 1998, Rebecca’s father was involved in a devastating motorcycle accident that left him paralyzed.

Rebecca’s parents struggled for 12 years to secure affordable, reliable home care.

U.S. Census projections call for a 36percent rise in the population of seniors age 65 and older by 2020 and 120-percent increase by 2050. The number of those 100 and older will also increase dramatically, rising 71 percent by 2020 and 661 percent by 2050 according to the projections.

BrightStar also offers a childcare component. The Kid Care BrightStar caregivers are CPR-certified, bonded, insured, background checked and trained. They can come into the home and offer anywhere from one-hour to 24hour care. They can go on a trip with a family to supervise a child or children while the parents attend to other activities or obligations.

Kid Care caregivers can also offer support to parents of children on the Autism spectrum or with Down Syndrome.

Since launching franchise operations in August 2005, BrightStar has opened or signed more than 200 locations in 36 states. The company plans to have 400 total franchises by the end of 2012.

Local governments regain variance authority

BY MARC INGBER • SUN NEWSPAPERS Cities and counties have been given the OK to grant variances like they did in the past.

Gov. Mark Dayton signed a bill May 5 that allows local governments greater latitude to grant zoning variances.

A decision the Minnesota Supreme Court handed down in July 2010 changed the landscape for variances.

The court ruled that a “municipality

does not have the authority to grant a variance unless the applicant can show that her property cannot be put to a reasonable use without the variance.”

That differed greatly from a 1989 decision that stated a variance could be granted if property owners “would like to use the property in a ‘reasonable manner’ that is prohibited by the ordinance.”

In effect, the 2010 decision made it next to impossible for cities to grant variances, except in rare circumstances. It was hand-

ed down in the case, Krummenacher v.

City of Minnetonka.

The bill Dayton signed May 5 is designed to clarify the law so that cities and counties can use the standards that had been in place for decades prior to last year’s decision.

The new law states variances may be granted when applicants establish there are “practical difficulties” in complying with the official control and they intend to use the property in a “reasonable manner.”

The variance law that went into effect last year affected more than $45 million in building projects, according to the 2011 Builders Association of the Twin Cities.

“Any project requiring a variance was ground to a halt last summer, leaving property owners with no options to improve their property and builders and remodelers on the sidelines,” said Rich Riemersma, the organization’s president.

“These projects can now move forward.”

The bill went into effect immediately after Dayton signed it.

Holy Angels gets new president The Academy of Holy Angels High School, Richfield, has named a new president to lead the award-winning Catholic high school beginning with the 2011-2012 school year.

Tom Shipley of Madison, Wis., will succeed Dr. Jill Reilly, who will be retiring in June 2011.

The search to fill the position began last fall when Reilly announced her retirement.

A search team consisting of members of the board of trustees conducted a rigorous and extensive search, gathering input from faculty and staff, parents and students, and alumni.

Numerous candidates, both internal and external, from the local area and around the nation, were interviewed for the position. The board of trustees voted and approved Tom Shipley as the next Holy Angels president at a recent board meeting.

“We were blessed with an extensive and very talented candidate pool,” said Board of Trustees Chair Jeff Ogden. “A change in senior leadership can entail challenge and even anxiety, especially when you consider the success Jill Reilly has brought to Holy Angels.

However, change can also provide an opportunity to build on the accomplishments AHA has achieved through Dr. Reilly’s leadership. We are thrilled to have Tom assume the role of President and lead our outstanding faculty and staff.”

Shipley has a strong track record of success, having been involved in education for more than 27 years in both the public and private Catholic sectors.

Shipley obtained his Bachelor of Science degree in education from the University of Wisconsin, Madison. He has a master’s degree in education administration from Northern Illinois University and he has also has completed considerable coursework at Loyola University of Chicago’s PostGraduate/Ed.D program.

“Holy Angels is an award-winning high school with a tremendous history and reputation,” says Shipley. “Our goal will be to ‘preserve its past, provide for the present, and to plan for its future.’

As stewards we have a responsibility to ensure that the mission of Academy of Holy Angels remains strong and viable for years to come.”

On July 1, Shipley will formally assume the role of President of Academy of Holy Angels. A series of welcoming and introductory events is being planned to introduce him to Holy Angels and local community.

Fishing opener brings increased efforts to stop the spread of AIS

BY CHRIS DILLMANN • SUN NEWSPAPERS With the fishing season beginning May 14, the effort to stop the spread of aquatic invasive species is taking center stage.

The Minnesota Department of Natural Resources held a demonstration May 10 at the public launch on Grays Bay on Lake Minnetonka showing what boaters can expect entering and leaving state lakes. The DNR showed the inspection process to check for AIS on boats and trailers.

“Our goal here to just to raise awareness to boaters and anglers that as a new open water season begins that people need to remember to make sure that they clean, drain and dry their boats so they’re not spreading invasive species such as zebra mussels and Eurasian water milfoil around the state,” said DNR invasive species supervisor Luke Skinner.

The DNR is refocusing its efforts with watercraft inspection enforcement on zebra mussel infested waters says Skinner.

“We’re spending more time on doing these inspections and events at these high-risk lakes that are already infested,” Skinner said. “So we’ll be spending significant time there trying to prevent

he spread from already infested lakes.”

Skinner says that depending on legislation, the DNR is going to try and set up more infrastructures for cleaning.

The agency will als be working with lake service providers such as those who put in docks or boat lifts to adequately train them.

Already 110 watercraft inspectors have been hired this year compared to 90 last season.

“Funding is a big issue,” Skinner said. “So depending on how things go through the legislation, we might even be able to ramp up our program even more.”

With increased efforts, the DNR says people can expect to get inspected more frequently and ticketed if not following the law.

What to expect “State law requires boaters to remove visible aquatic plants and zebra mussels from boats and trailers upon leaving the public waters in the state of Minnesota,” said DNR conservation officer Adam Block.

For fisherman, Block says anglers can keep unused bait, but cannot dump unused bait into any waters of the OPENER: TO PAGE 22

Like any typical mom, Julia Sawyer, of Eden Prairie, spent the first year of her son’s life enamored by him, delighting in each new milestone.

Then as he headed into his second year, she began to notice changes, setbacks. By 2.5 years of age, Sawyer’s son was diagnosed with autism.

“He was considered pretty severe,” she said. “He couldn’t talk, didn’t make any types of babbling and just did a lot of hand flapping.”

He also struggled with following directions. That’s when Sawyer met Tara Bertone. Sawyer said that was the beginning of the journey to where they are now today, with her son participating in the mainstream curriculum for seventh grade, participating in track and generally, a very smart 13-year-old.

THERAPIES Bertone began working with autistic children in 1996 as a behavior therapist.

She later earned her master’s degree in speech and language pathology.

“I noticed kids either get a behavioral program or parents take their kids to speech, but the therapies were separate,” said Bertone. Throughout her education and experience, Bertone witnessed firsthand the benefits of applied behavior analysis (ABA) therapy as well as verbal behavior therapy but was disappointed by the lack of collaboration with speech-language pathologists.

According to Bertone, although ABA professionals are proficient in teaching new skills, rarely did a speech-language pathologist play a significant role in the development of curriculum and program management, which are primarily language and communication-based.

Her passion for helping kids drove her to create Autism Matters, a center that strives to address the disconnect between these two disciplines.

“We did some research and found there were very few services in the area,” she said. “That was the catalyst to opening a center in Rogers.”

Services include speech-language assessments, speech-language therapy, oral-motor therapy using TalkTools, VB/ABA intensive intervention, occupa-

tional therapy, academic tutoring, self-help skills training and parent training and resources. Sawyer’s son received therapies from the Minnetonka location, where Sawyer found having multiple services under one roof beneficial. Many autistic children are recommended to participate in 20 to 40 hours of intensive therapy that can be demanding on parents and families if services are located far away and scattered throughout the area.

Another benefit for Sawyer was having her son’s therapists all on the same page and not having to go through the emotional and mental rigors of playing messenger between them.

“If you’re taking your child to five different places, it becomes your job to ensure therapist A knows what therapist B is doing,” Sawyer said. “Here, they all meet with you as a team.”

“The consistency piece is critical,” Sawyer said. “If everyone was throwing different stuff at him he wouldn’t have made the same level of progress. At Autism Matters, all the therapists use the same techniques and same philosophy.”

Many times in other therapy plans treatment is set up so the focus is first on the behaviors. But Sawyer said she’s found Autism Matters to be unique in that Bertone approaches therapy from a mindset of improving the child’s communication and language skills first.

NO CHILD ALIKE Autism Spectrum Disorders present themselves in such different ways from child to child. Sawyer said no two children with it necessarily look alike. There is also conflicting information on what causes it and what can be done for children to make progress. Because of this, Sawyer said the emotional toll is especially great.

“With autism, you often already feel isolated by the time you receive your child’s diagnosis. You have probably withdrawn from doing some of the typical things parents do like play dates or outings because of issues with your child,” she said.

She works to get the message to other parents going through this same journey that there is hope.

“I was basically given no hope back then.

I was told my child would never talk, and now he does,” she said.

Opener FROM PAGE 18 state. And as for check stations, Block says he knows how hectic public access sites can be at certain times, but urges people to be patient when it comes to inspections.

“We encourage you to find a safe spot to pull over so you’re not necessarily blocking the access itself, but you’re not leaving the site either without having your boat inspected,” Block said.

Minnetonka resident and boater Phil Priest says he understands the increased efforts.

“I was quite aware of the problem before,” Priest said as he was having his boat inspected at the Grays Bay access before putting it in the lake.

“I’ve always been pretty sure I haven’t been carrying debris on my boat or trailer … but I am concerned with it going to other lakes.”

Priest, who says he launches his boat in Lake Minnetonka a few times a year for Crappie season, says he was shocked that Lake Minnetonka was infested with zebra mussels last year.

Zebra mussels were first discovered in Minnesota in Duluth harbor in 1989.

They now infect 19 inland lakes.

Milfoil, discovered in 1987, now infects 246 lakes statewide.

Targeting enforcement efforts around peak times and high-use lakes such as Lake Minnetonka, the DNR feels education is the best prevention method.

“We can only improve,” Skinner said. “I think boaters are more aware, especially over the last couple of years of what they need to do, and it’s really about a culture change … people need to make sure it’s a habit when they come off the lake. I think with the increased efforts we can really reduce the spread in the state.”

Other invasive species the DNR is keeping an eye on is Hydrilla, which resembles milfoil and Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia – a virus that causes fish to bleed out.

Since the primary cause of the spread of invasive species is by boaters, the DNR says it’s up to the individual.

“Number one thing, we absolutely need recreational boaters and anglers to take personal responsibility,” Skinner said. “The state can only do so much … without that action by the public, that’s where it’s really going to make the difference in reducing the spread.”

Sliders FROM PAGE 1 nutrition, creativity and originality, ease of use in schools and recipe presentation.

The judges ask the students about cooking methods, healthy alternatives, serving requirements and what they would change about the recipe.

“We wouldn’t change anything at this point,” Popescu said.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture and first lady Michelle Obama, as part of the ‘Lets Move!’ campaign, created the challenge with the goal to find great tasting and healthy recipes for American school cafeterias.

Over 350 participants prepared at least one healthy recipe in the categories whole grains, dark green and orange vegetables or dry beans and peas.

The porcupine sliders dish is a finalist in the whole grains category.

The sandwich features high protein turkey meat combined with brown rice, spinach, celery, garlic, onions and cranberries into a patty on a whole grain roll.

In the Community, With the Community, For the Community

The idea began when an elective class, Planting Seeds, developed and planted an organic garden.

“We wanted to make a difference,” Popescu said.

The produce grown in the 12 raisedbed gardens are used in the school cafeteria as well as in the recipe for the sliders.

The success to the recipe includes school wide involvement.

Students in the C-Train program embroidered the chef coats worn by the team during the judges’ presentation.

The C-Train program allows students to develop career skills leading to industry-recognized certificates and transition to post-secondary education.

In the next step, the judges will choose the top three teams of the 15 finalists to compete in a national cookoff in Dallas in July.

Online voting by the public at recipesforkidschallenge.com will choose a popular choice winner.

To taste the nationally recognized recipe, Good Earth Restaurant, 3460 Galleria, Edina, will be featuring porcupine sliders on the menu.

“We are already a winner,” Popescu said.

Skate FROM PAGE 1 to abandon the creation of the skate park but rather to reconsider using Augsburg Park as the chosen site.

“I am in favor in trying to find as many things for all ages to do, especially our youth, but my concern is how we got to the point of Augsburg Park. I am not supporting Augsburg Park for a number of reasons, one is the site selection scoring is flawed,” Wroge said.

One of the flaws Wroge pointed out in the scoring was in regards to visibility to public safety.

“Roosevelt Park would be out on the corner of both 77th Street and Portland Avenue. I would say this is more visible than what is going on over at Augsburg,” Wroge said.

During the council meeting a public hearing was held to address the residents comment and concerns on the plans for a skate park.

The remarks were varied.

Richfield resident Sherry Case asked the council why does public safety need to be visible to the skate park. Her concerns are based on what the users of the skate park might be doing that the police

need to have visibility.

“Let’s not judge a book by its cover,” said resident Rick Jabs in response to Case’s concerns. Jabs said his son is a skateboarder but has gotten all A’s in school.

Other concerns from the community were geared to the loss of the basketball court.

According to Topitzhofer, the decision was made because the basketball court at Augsburg Park is the least used in the city and the city of Richfield has many other Basketball facilities but no tier-one skate parks.

The total cost of the new skate park is estimated at $70,000 and is included in the 2010 Capital Improvement Budget.

In the past, the commission wanted to put in a tier-two skate park. The idea was dismissed because it would involve insurance matters and the need of professional supervision and a usage fee, according to Topitzhofer.

A tier-one facility would allow the city to construct elements that are no more than three feet and no fees would be charged.

In the next step, the commission will bring to the city council a recommendation for a final design by Hardcore Skateparks to be approved and then construction will begin.

Spartans gain momentum heading into baseball playoffs S

BY GREG KLEVEN • SUN NEWSPAPERS Richfield’s baseball squad is gaining momentum heading into the final week of the regular season.

The Spartans won four of their past five games to improve to 11-5 overall and 9-4 in the Classic Suburban Conference.

Jordan Zoellmer has been Richfield’s most effective pitcher, compiling a 5-1 record and 0.55 earned-run average. He has struck out 17 and walked only three in 38 innings.

Phil Peterson and Andy Petersen have also been solid pitchers for the Spartans.

Tartan rallied to defeat the Spartans 11-9 May 11. Dearing was tagged with the loss after coming in for starter Peterson.

“We jumped to a 9-1 lead in the fifth, but Tartan scored 10 runs on three home runs in the bottom of that inning,” said Boie.
