by Dan Ruud He or she who catches the biggest catfish at this weekend’s 37th annual Belle Plaine Minnesota River Fishin’ Contest will reel in 10 times more money than the finders of the 2012 St. Patrick’s and Bar-B-Q Days treasure coins “combined.”

Thanks to a special sponsorship and contribution from Matt Saxe Chevrolet-Buick of Belle Plaine, this year’s firstplace prize is $2,000, compared to $1,000 in recent years. In all, $4,000 will be awarded in cash and prizes at Court Square Park in Belle Plaine, which is located off Highway 25 on the north edge of town.

Minnesota Harvest Hopes New Approach Will Be Good for Business

The staff at Minnesota Harvest Orchard was among the area farmers who breathed a sigh of relief over recent rains.

As Minnesota Harvest Orchard continues to rebuild, it is aiming at returning the orchard to being an orchard.

Minnesota Harvest celebrated its grand opening for the 2012 season last weekend. It will be a different Minnesota Harvest than many recall. Long gone are the pony rides and the big bands that at times overshadowed what drew thousands of people to the orchard on County Road 66 in St. Lawrence Township during the 1980s and ‘90s – over 30,000 trees with dozens of varieties of apples.

Instead, Kelly and her staff are planning a far more pedestrian apple experience. Yes, there are music groups Saturdays and Sundays, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m., but on a much smaller scale with a more laid-back presentation. Yes, there are attractions for children – a petting zoo, hay castle and corn maze. But Minnesota Harvest is all about the apple, said Kevin Breeggemann, the general manager and

It appears as though the Belle Plaine Trail will soon be getting a much-needed repaving. One other option was to make it a gravel road, which the city was opposed to.

Primary Next Tuesday There are no primary races for Belle Plaine city offices next Tuesday, but polls will be open at the Belle Plaine Government Center for other races, most locally Scott County Commissioner District 1 and Senate District 20.

Squaring off for the Scott County Commissioner District 1 seat are incumbent Joe Wagner of Sand Creek Township, Jerry Kucera of Sand Creek Township and LuAnne Lemke of Louisville Township. The top two vote-getters will be on the general election ballot this fall.

In Senate District 20, Mike Dudley of New Prague and

Gene Kornder of Belle Plaine Township are vying to be the Republican candidate in the fall general election. The winner will square off against Kevin Dahle of Northfield.

Polls at the Belle Plaine Government Center will open at 7 a.m. and close at 8 p.m. Only people who live within the Belle Plaine city limits are permitted to vote at the Government Center. If you live outside the Belle Plaine city limits, vote at your designated polling place.

Belle Plaine Students Show Improvement on State Tests

In a year which Belle Plaine Schools targeted improvement on state math tests, an unexpected benefit showed up in the results. Reading scores improved, too.

The results of last spring’s Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCAs) released last Wednesday shows widespread improvement in Belle Plaine students’ math, reading and writing exams. The MCA science test scores were not released and are expected later this fall, said Carol Lagergren, the curriculum and testing coordinator for the Belle Plaine and Jordan school districts.

“It’s awesome because teachers spent the year focusing on math,” she said. “It’s translated

by Dan Ruud The pot-hole infested Belle Plaine Trail will most likely be paved from beginning to end this construction season.

The city of Belle Plaine and representatives of Belle Plaine Township ironed out an agreement for the long-term fix of the road, which the city council put its stamp of approval on Monday night following months of back-and-forth debating on whose responsible for how much of the costs to improve and maintain the country road that stretches approximately one mile through city and township property between Highway 169 and Ashford Way. The council in June voted to award the bid for the improvement of the road to Chard Tiling of Belle Plaine to pave the city’s portion of the project, which includes some 1,777 feet of the eastern end of the road.

That’s a little less than half the length of the entire stretch. The bid was for $128,113.60, which the city would pay approximately one-half of for its share of the road. The bid was valid until July 27.

“Chard Tiling has not yet signed the agreement and has agreed to wait a period of 30 days to allow the city and township to reach an agreement on the limits of the project,” City Engineer Joe Duncan reported.

“This agreement also states that the city will entertain a request to extend the completion date for the work once it has been determined what exactly that will be.”

Under terms reached Monday, Chard Tiling will be improving

to good achievement in reading.”

School board directors will take a look at the results at their workshop Monday.

The scores reflect the performance on the MCA tests and also the graduation portion of each assessment. The MCA III math exams, which focus on algebra and everyday math problems rather than simple calculations, were given to students in third through eighth grades.

Eleventh-graders took the MCA II math test. The MCA II reading exams were given to students in third through eighth and 10th grades. Writing exams were also given to ninththrough 11-graders.

Lagergren said this is the last

year of the MCA II reading tests. The MCA III reading test will focus on a student’s ability to tell why something happened rather than just retelling a story.

In the state reading exams, Belle Plaine students were above the state average in six of the seven grade levels where the tests were administered. Overall, 77 percent of the district’s students tested achieved proficiency. Statewide, 76 percent of the students tested earned proficiency.

The district’s students in the grades where students took the reading tests overwhelm-

by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine City Council Monday night accepted the engineer’s report and called for a preliminary public hearing on the city’s 2013 street and utility project.

Next year’s work is proposed to consist of street reconstruction and utility improvements at: – Main Street from Willow Street to Buffalo Street.

– Eagle Street from Park Street to Main Street.

– Buffalo Street from Main Street to Church Street.

City Engineer Joe Duncan said the total estimated cost of the project is $1,963,850, of which $1,416,416 (72 percent) would be paid for by the city.

The rest would be assessed to benefitting property owners.

Staff reported that a reasonable estimate of the assessment impact to benefitting property owners will be available at the public hearing, which will take place shortly after 6 p.m. on Tuesday, Sept. 4.

In Duncan’s report presented to the council Monday, it states that inspections have revealed that a substantial portion of the project area raised numerous concerns in regard to the existing sewer pipes and other infrastructure. He added that the existing bituminous street surfaces on Main and Eagle streets

are characterized as poor and exhibit alligator cracking and raveling.

“The public works department expends significant resources annually to rework, patch and otherwise maintain the streets

in the proposed project area,” reported Duncan, adding that Buffalo Street, which was constructed in 1993, is in “fair con-

The U.S.-Dakota War of 1862 The following article was written by Stephen Elliott, director and CEO of the Minnesota Historical Society in observance of the 150th anniversary of the U.S.-Dakota War of 1862.

There is no upside, no silver lining to the six-week war that ravaged a large swath of Minnesota in August and September of 1862.

It was a long time in the making, of bloody and intense duration, and brutal in its aftermath.

And it was complicated. Still is.

It’s a tough story. In 1851, as whites flooded into Minnesota Territory, the Dakota reluctantly negotiated treaties surrendering most of their land in exchange for promises of goods, cash and a reservation along the Minnesota River. After leaders signed one of these treaties, they were ushered to another document, which some thought was another copy of the treaty. The document turned over a significant percentage of the cash payments to a group of fur traders, including Henry Sibley, to satisfy years of debts accumulated in anticipation of just such a payment.

Dakota leaders, who had negotiated in good faith, were betrayed the following year when the U.S. Senate removed the clause establishing permanent Dakota reservations.

In 1858 a group of Dakota leaders were summoned to Washington, D.C., and detained until they signed yet another treaty relinquishing all land north and east of the Minnesota River, but acknowledging title to a 10-by150-mile strip of land, half of the 1851 reservation.

Government policies imposed by corrupt agents favored assimilation, depriving the Dakota of their traditional way of life. In January 1862, President Lincoln’s own investigator warned him of “voluminous and outrageous frauds upon the Indians” and the probable dire consequences – but Lincoln’s attention was focused on another front.

Stripped of their hunting lands and facing a poor harvest, the Dakota were dependent on government support. The government’s failure to deliver annuities as promised brought near-starvation and growing anger.

An isolated violent incident sparked the war, which many Dakota opposed. Some who thought it ill-advised fought anyway, including Little Crow, who led the Dakota forces.

About 600 whites, including women and children, were killed; no one knows how many Dakota died. Many settlers who fled never returned, leaving farms and fields empty for years.

Following the fighting, many of the Dakota warriors, including Little Crow, evaded capture.

Perfunctory military tribunals sentenced 303 Dakota men to hang for their roles in the fighting.

President Lincoln reviewed the cases and reduced that number to 39. Ultimately, 38 mounted the single scaffold in Mankato on Dec. 26, 1862, but they were not, by any means, the war’s last victims.

Leading Minnesotans, including Gov. Alexander Ramsey, called for extermination and exile of the Dakota. About 1,700 Dakota women, children and elders were marched 150 miles and imprisoned under harsh winter conditions at the confluence of the Mississippi and Minnesota rivers. Ironically, this site, central to Dakota creation and traditional life for generations, became the place where their exile began.

In spring 1863, the Dakota were banished to distant reservations. Punitive expeditions were mounted to pursue Dakota who had fled to the west. Many hundreds died during the cruel execution of these policies, and many thousands since have

Historic Lexington Church at its new home on the Le Sueur County Pioneer Power Showgrounds.

Pioneer Power to Dedicate Church Saturday Since moving the former St Joseph’s Church to its show grounds a year ago, Le Sueur County Pioneer Power members and volunteers have been busy preparing the church for exhibition to the public.

Most of the work has been finished and the public is invited to an open house of the Lexington Church on Saturday Aug. 11.

The historic church, built in 1902, will be open for public viewing from 2-4 p.m. A program and dedication ceremony will be held in the church at 4 p.m. The church is celebrating its 110th anniversary this year.

“We thought it deserved a special day,” said Tom Graham,

lived with the consequences, in Minnesota and throughout the Dakota diaspora.

Several years ago, the Minnesota Historical Society decided to take on the challenge of telling the stories of all the parties.

Staff began to frame the war in its large and complicated contexts. Numerous projects were initiated to make collections related to the war more accessible for research and to reach a variety of audiences through different media. Staff members cast a broad net, eliciting family stories, recording histories, inviting feedback on projects and exhibition ideas, and doing much, prolonged listening to the descendants of people on all sides.

An exhibition at the Minnesota History Center, programs at several historic sites, a website (usdakotawar.org) and other offerings have been shaped for the better by this outreach.

As a historical institution and as staff members, we are much the better, too, for our experi-

ences in developing this year’s projects, many of which will have enduring value. We are deeply grateful to all who have given their time, shared their histories and views, and bared their emotions. This is much more than a year of remembrance and reflection. This is a journey into a shared future of continuing dialogue.

Early on, someone suggested that the war was so tragic that we should not revisit it and its pain. Many others recognized the enormous educational opportunity of tackling this work and pitched in to help. This war bore terrible consequences for the Dakota Oyate (Nation) and for the survivors of settlers who were killed; it inevitably shaped Minnesota, yet many know little about it. That is sad. The war is of enormous historical and current importance to all.

Let us learn together. MHS is providing many opportunities for doing just that. As one writer closed a recent letter to MHS, “I shake your hand with a good heart.”

She announced publicly in the fall of 2010 Minnesota Harvest would enjoy a farewell season.

She offered the trees for sale.

Efforts at a comeback nearly withered away. This year, a spring frost hurt the fireside blossoms, but other varieties were unscathed, thanks to a later bloom. With plenty of rain early this spring, a dry and hot summer threatened the early varieties. But just when the apples needed the rainfall the most, nearly 3 inches of rainfall two weeks ago sent the young apples bursting with moisture, Breeggemann said.

A Revival

Last spring, Kelly and a team of workers began working on a restoration of the orchard and its facilities. The work they did helped draw enough customers to exceed revenue projections by 25 percent, Breeggemann said. Kelly hopes to exceed that amount this year.

“We had a huge season, much bigger than expected,” he said.

“We’re about two years ahead of schedule.”

Cologne’s Drive-In Movie Night Means a Little More This Year

by John Mueller Andy Hendel, his brother, Josh, and father enjoyed watching a good movie together. The Cologne Fire Department’s annual drive-in movie night was a great chance to watch good movies under the stars.

Andy Hendel will be in the Hendel family’s thoughts next weekend at the Fourth Annual Firehouse Drive-In. The event is Friday-Saturday, Aug. 17-18 in a city park just south of the intersection of County Road 53 and Highway 212. Gates open at 6 p.m. Friday, 3 p.m. Saturday.

The movies will be presented on a 50-by-30 foot screen. Friday night, the movies “Despicable Me” and “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows” will be presented. Saturday’s movies are “The Smurfs” and the baseball movie, “Moneyball.”

The movies will begin just after sunset. Tickets are $20 per car in advance, $25 at the gate. The event is a fund-raiser for the restoration of the Cologne Fire Department’s 1923 AmericanLa France fire engine. Tickets are available at Holiday in Cologne, Klein Bank in Cologne or from a Cologne firefighter.

A brief fireworks display will be presented between movies.

The movies and the fireworks will remind anyone who knew him of Andy Hendel. A handful of the pyrotechnics form a smile. Andy loved movies and seemingly always wore a smile.

A smiling face is part of the promotional materials.

But Hendel died unexpectedly Jan. 22. He was 16.

“He’ll be there watching,” Ann Hendel, Andy’s mom, said.

“He would definitely be proud of (including) Sherlock Holmes and “Moneyball”,” John Hendel, Andy’s dad and one of the firefighters organizing the benefit event, said.

Andy loved baseball as much as he loved movies. John, Andy and his brother, Josh, saw “Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows” the weekend it came out last fall. It was one of the last movies they enjoyed together.

If there was a movie we wanted to see, we were there opening night,” John Hendel said.

John and Ann will feel Andy’s presence as moviegoers drive into the park. He’d be there early with his friends, making sure they had a good place to park the truck to watch the movies.

barn and restored equipment to the property. A strawberry patch will be ready for picking later this month. Small weddings, complete with a 100-year-old carriage pulled by the only two horses at Minnesota Harvest will also be available.

They are hoping changes will add to their success – crossmarketing with the Renaissance Festival and dropping the perevent fee for a $2 per-person entrance that permits customers to enjoy the side attractions at no additional cost. People will only have to pay extra for the apples they pick and any food they purchase.

“This way, a family of five can bring a picnic lunch and stay busy for an entire day for $10,” Breeggemann said.

State Tests

ingly at least met or exceeded the expected MCA reading performance levels. At least 70 percent of students in the six, seventh, eighth and 10th grades met or exceeded expected reading performance levels. In the third, fourth and fifth grades, more 80 percent or better met or exceeded expected state reading performance levels.

In the MCA math exams, students in six of the seven grades where the tests were administered were at or above the state average. Overall, 65 percent of the district’s students were proficient on the exams. Statewide, 61 percent of the exams were proficient.

Students also performed better in the math exams. In 2011, for example, about 47 percent of the fifth-graders met or exceeded the state’s performance levels. In 2012, about 61 percent of the sixth-graders met or exceeded the state’s performance levels on math exams.

Lagergren said the improvement in the math exams is the result of an emphasis on better math instruction. Last year, the district began using a system of professional learning communities (PLCs) where teachers work collectively to present more consistent and focused lessons.

The results seemed to pay off.

The test scores in six of the seven grades show improvement over 2011 when the new MCA math standards were implemented. Superintendent Kelly Smith said the first year of PLCs is a step in the right

direction for Belle Plaine students.

“PLCs are intended to help students learn,” he said. “The direction is a positive one. We want to continue to see that.”

The only dark cloud in the results came with last year’s 11th-graders. Only 26 percent of them achieved proficiency on the MCA math exams. Statewide, 43 percent of last year’s juniors reached proficiency.

The district is adding a new curriculum and additional staff support to help bolster their scores, Lagergren said.

Ninth-graders were given the MCA writing test. Ninetyfive percent of those students achieved proficiency. The state average was 92 percent. Tenthgraders were given the MCA reading exam. Seventy percent of BPHS sophomore achieved proficiency. The state average was 77 percent.

Jordan, Belle Plaine’s partner in Lagergren’s services, fared better in the latest round of tests.

In the reading tests, its test scores were 1 to 11 percentage points higher than Belle Plaine’s students. In the MCA math exams, Belle Plaine students’ scores were on par with their Jordan counterparts in some grade levels and below theirs elsewhere.

H H H H H H H H To My Friends in the Belle Plaine Area -

Again this year, I am seeking your vote to represent you on Scott County’s Board of Commissioners. It is significant work and I am truly aware of its importance. I do not take your support lightly. During the campaign, I enjoy the opportunity to hear from my friends and neighbors throughout the First Commissioner District. However, it seems my opponent, Jerry Kucera, has decided the campaign is an opportunity to attack me rather than discuss key issues. I believe you deserve better from candidates. I am a funeral director, but he has even criticized me for taking telephone calls from grieving families.

I will not attack my opponents. With that in mind, here’s where I stand on important issues:

Property Taxes & Spending:

At a time when property values are rising and the economy remains stagnant, I will continue to vote against increases in Scott County’s property tax levy and operational spending. I have voted against levy hikes the last few years. You are already over-taxed!

Investing in The Future:

The Belle Plaine Herald (USPS 260730) is published every Wednesday at Belle Plaine, MN 113 East Main, P.O. Box 7, Belle Plaine, MN 56011. Periodicals postage paid at the Belle Plaine Post Office.

I have worked to dedicate almost $1 million toward an overpass at 169/CR 3. We should also invest in economic development, preparing Scott County as a host for new employers who will bring jobs and additional tax base to the county.

No. 32, Vol. One-Hundred & Thirty-First Wednesday, August 8, 2012

Our business- and property owners continue to struggle with oppressive state mandates making it difficult to invest in business expansion and home improvement. New shingles or a deck should not trigger a septic system compliance check. A business should be permitted to expand without unreasonable scrutiny.

Open, Honest Dialogue:

My home and business are in the First Commissioner District. I am here every day and enjoy the privilege of talking with friends and neighbors when they have a concern regarding Scott County government. You can call me anytime, day or evening - (612) 270-2660.

I Will be Honored by Your Support on Election Day - August 14.

Farmers Market Corner It was another beautiful week at the Belle Plaine Farmers Market last Wednesday.

As long as the street is intact, we will be at Court Square.

However, if the street is blocked or missing due to reconstruction, we will be in the parking lot behind the high school at Union Square Park, otherwise known as the BBQ Days park.

Watch the signs as the street improvements loom closer.

There is more big news for the market! Jennifer Johnson will be back today, Aug. 8. Jennifer is also known as the egg roll lady. There should be many happy customers welcoming her return. Come down and enjoy a fresh egg roll.

A lot of fresh produce can be found at the market. There’s nothing like grilled vegetables to add to a meal. Reeds continue to offer beautiful perennials that are in bloom now and

more that will add to your fall garden.

There has been a little controversy as customers and vendors alike have been rushing the 3:30 p.m. start time. Please respect the bell as it is fair to everyone.

Start chopping tomatoes, we are having a salsa contest the first week of September. All customers will be able to participate in the judging. Bring a jar of your best to the market and see how it holds up. Check here for further details.

The Belle Plaine Farmers Market is held Wednesdays at Court Square Park May through October from 3:30 to 6:30 p.m.

Vendors wishing to sell homemade and/or homegrown products are welcome. If you have a talent you would like to share, we invite you to throw down a hat and perform at the market.

For more information, contact Lisa at 952-873-5665 or Diane at 952-873-2467.

City Council (continued from page 1) dition.�

Duncan said the city is about four months ahead of schedule when it comes to planning for its annual street improvement project. He said the reason for that is not to speed up the project, but rather to attract more favorable bids by bidding the project in January rather than on the doorstep of spring.

Some of the key dates of the project schedule are as follows: 2012 Sept. 4 – Hold improvement hearing.

Dec. 17 – Approve plans and specifications and authorize advertisement of bids.

2013 Jan. 24 – Receive and open bids.

Feb. 4 – Consider resolution to award construction contract.

April – Begin construction.

Aug. 31 – Substantial completion.

Oct. 7 – Hold assessment hearing.

2014 June – Final completion.

In other business Monday night, the council unanimously authorized the purchase of a 2011 Chevrolet Caprice squad car from Matt Saxe Chevrolet of Belle Plaine.

The initial MSRP price for the vehicle is $30,170, which after reductions and title fees, the purchase price is $23,522.

Equipment will be used from the department’s 2004 Chevorlet Impala squad car, which has over 137,000 miles on it.

Police Tom Stolee reported that although the vehicle is a 2011, it is “new,� for which $31,000 was budgeted for this year. *Unanimously authorized the purchase of a used ambulance vehicle for the city’s public works department. Public Works Superintendent Al Fahey reported that the existing (modified) ambulance being used as a public works vehicle is in need of replacement in that the cost of needed repairs exceeds its value. He added that he has located “a good used�

2000 Ford Wheeled Coach with 69,904 miles on it at a price of $18,000, plus taxes. “I would ask for $2,000 to make it usable for the public works department (decals, lens covers and some paint, etc.).

The old rig will be sold on sealed bid or auction,� Fahey reported.

A person does not fully appreciate their dependence on technology until they have to do without it. A week ago, Monday, I lost the computer that I use to write my weekly library column to a lightning strike. All of my notes, past columns, internet access to the Scott County Library System web-site, a major source of my news reading, electronic submission of this column to the Belle Plaine Herald and my back-up drives all disappeared in one startling and LOUD moment. Now, thanks to some electronic wizardry, someone was able to open the computer and tap into my hard drives and recover most, if not all, of that for me. I will be sorting files for a while.

Every year, we have a birthday party for the comic strip cat, Garfield. I learned that today, August 8 is Odie’s birthday.

WEDNESDAY, August 8, 2012 ball field at Meadow Park, which will include a backstop and fencing, etc.

The park board recently discussed the need for a another ball field at the park, which currently has one field that is primarily used for Little League teams. The cost of the project, which will be paid for by park funds, is not to exceed $31,000.

Public works will provide for as much of the labor as possible and contract for the rest of the project.

The long term plan for Meadow Park is to use the fields for tournaments and other community events, and to eventually construct a shelter with rest rooms and a concession area. *Unanimously authorized the Belle Plaine Police Department to proceed with an application seeking a grant from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety’s Toward Zero Deaths (TZD) program. TZD is a federally-funded program administered by the Minnesota Department of Public Safety that is dedicated to addressing issues of traffic safety through highly publicized overtime enforcement projects, including Thanksgiving, Christmas, Memorial Day, Fourth of July and Labor Day. Police Chief Tom Stolee said that whatever the grant amount may be, no matching funds will be required. *Unanimously authorized the Belle Plaine Fire Department to purchase two holding tanks for its tanker trucks at a cost of approximately $2,100. The department recently applied for and received a matching DNR grant that will pay for up to $1,000 of the purchase. Fire department funds will pay for $1,100 of the purchase. *Unanimously approved a request by Tim Huber for a large assembly permit at Tiger Park baseball complex.

Street Improvement Work Off to Good Start

City Engineer Joe Duncan reported that the city’s 2012 street and utility improvement project is off to a good start. “All the mainline utilities have been installed in Elm Street and work has started on the street section,� Duncan stated. “The majority of the concrete trail on East Commerce Drive has been poured and the resurfacing in the Woodridge Drive area is complete.�

Duncan added that street work will continue this month on Elm Street and will move to Court and Chestnut streets, as well as the Chestnut ravine project.

German Days Policing Cost Skyrockets

City Administrator David Murphy reported that John Mahoney of the Belle Plaine German Days Committee expressed his displeasure with the handling of this year’s celebration downtown. “Mr. Mahoney specified the police costs this year compared to last year,� Murphy stated. “Last year’s police costs were roughly $375 and this year’s cost were $2,205.45 . . . “There were two factors to the large cost increase,� Murphy continued. “First, this year’s event was two days rather than one. The second is the fact that the police department was short-handed due to officers out on paternity leave. Chief Stolee was forced to include full-time officers on overtime to meet the necessary staffing requirements.�

The next regular meeting of the Belle Plaine City Council is scheduled for 6 p.m. Aug. 20 in the Belle Plaine Government Center at 218 North Meridian Street downtown.

Thirty Years Ago This Week

the jinx that had stayed with New Prague all season beat ‘em again. The 5-4 victory for Belle Plaine gave them the series and eliminated a good team from further participation in the playoffs.

Mr. and Mrs. Emil Quast were honored by relatives and friends on the occasion of their 35th wedding anniversary.

An unusual accident occurred on Highway 169 between Belle Plaine and Jordan. Two visitors in Belle Plaine from Minneapolis were forced off the road and their car overturned in the ditch.

They were not injured but when they climbed out of the overturned car, they saw a pair of legs sticking out from under the car. A transit from Wisconsin was apparently sleeping on the side of the road and was killed when the car rolled on top of him.

Something New at the Bank In honor of its 100th anniversary and as a service to the Belle Plaine Community in 1982, the State Bank of Belle Plaine installed an electronic time and temperature display on their sign. It replaced the message board that had been used since the sign was erected in 1975. The new service would flash the time and temperature 24 hours per day.

Spotty and sparse rainfalls had caused some farmers and agricultural agents to worry about the kind of crop they would be harvesting in 1982. “It’s to the point that we’re losing production everyday because we’re not having any moisture,” said Joe Hanzel, Agricultural and Stabilization and Conservation Service director. Scott County was 5 inches below normal in rainfall that year. It hadn’t rained in the Belle Plaine area in some time, and according to Adella Gruetzmacher, who kept rainfall records for the Green Giant Company, only 2.85 inches had fallen in the area since June 1.

The second Belle Plaine well still was not in operation and the sprinkling ban in Belle Plaine remained in effect.

Alice Burns was coming up on 75 years as the Belle Plaine Herald’s news correspondent for St. Thomas. Burns, who would turn 90 on Aug. 14, had been writing the St. Thomas news since 1908, when she was 16. Among the items that occurred during her first year on the job were: “We’re pleased to state that Mrs. John Dunn is recovering from a hard siege of sickness,” an item that appeared in the June 4, 1908 Herald. Another item said: “The farmers are doubtful about a bumper corn crop this year, with most to plant yet and what was planted is going wild with the weeds and wild oats.”

The Jordan Brewers ended the Belle Plaine town team’s baseball season by winning the final game of a best-of-three series 65 at Fairgrounds Park in Jordan.

The Tigers had won game one 5-4, while the Brewers blew Belle Plaine away in the second game by an unexplainable score of 15-0. Jon Schuette crushed a

grand slam in the Tigers’ lone victory of the series.

The 1982 Belle Plaine High School football team was set to open practice on Aug. 16. The team’s coaching staff would be made up of Roy Henderson, Dick Peterson, Lee Sauter, Jeff Hiltz, Daryl Goulson and Bob Brown. The Tigers’ season opener against St. MichaelAlbertville would be on Sept.

3 in Belle Plaine. The Tigers were coming off a 7-2 season in 1981.

60 Years Ago (1952)

90 Years Ago (1922)

The Belle Plaine School Board fixed its tax levy for the ensuing year at $15,000.

With St. Lawrence Township a game refuge, Edw. J. Leibbrand secured from the state game farm 20 young ring-neck pheasants, which he turned loose. It was the beginning of pheasant propagation in this area.

Fire destroyed the threshing machine owned by John Romwall while it was at work on the Peter Kleven farm. The job of threshing was about finished when fire broke out in the middle of the separator.

E.T. Carlson was in hogs in a big way that season. From his Oak Farm east of Belle Plaine, he sold 198 hogs in a single week. They averaged 245 pounds.

Gertrude Neubeiser gave up her work at Jamestown, N.D., to resume her course at McPhail School of Music.

Henry H. Holste, who was born in Blakeley Township in 1858, died following an operation at a St. Paul hospital.

The funeral was held from St. John’s Lutheran Church.

St. John’s Parish, Sibley County, held its annual harvest picnic with large attendance. The featured event other than the chicken dinner was the baseball game between St. John’s and Belle Plaine businessmen, in which the latter were walloped 20 to 3. Jake Bauman pitched for the businessmen but got poor support.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor: In a time when stability in our local politics is a seemingly distant memory, LuAnne Lemke has demonstrated the intelligence, logical thought and decision making required to move us forward in the right direction and complete our Scott County Board of Commissioners representing District 1.

While other candidates may tout “experience in Government”, LuAnne has the proven leadership and real experience that we need as an elected official; not self-proclaimed and unproven.

I have had the true opportunity to work with LuAnne who is the 2012 Chair ofthe Scott County Association for Leadership and Efficiency (SCALE) as well as on the SCALE Executive Board. She has demonstrated true skills as a leader in her thought process, communications and the ability to apply reason to emotional discussions. LuAnne is very effective at collaborating and bringing consensus to the group.

LuAnne has a passion for growing our business base and bringing jobs to our county. She works on several county-wide teams that focus on economic growth and maximizing the value of taxpayers’ money through collaboration of services in areas of public safety, transportation, community development, parks and recreation and more.

I have seen first-hand her mark as a leader and the respect that she is afforded by her peers.

LuAnne Lemke is the candidate that we are fortunate to have the choice to vote for on Tuesday, August 14th for Scott County Commissioner, District 1.

Joseph Thill Vice-Chair SCALE Councilman, City of Jordan

Dear Editor: Why should Citizens of Scott County re-elect Dave Menden, Tom Wolf and Joe Wagner for County Commissioner? All three of them are true conservatives who vote to help our residents who really need help, yet hold the line and limit un-neccessory taxes and excessive salaries and benefits found in the Union’s negotiated contracts.

The last few years, when our economy worsened, these three supported reducing staff through attrition, not lay offs, to realistic levels. Despite their efforts County salaries and benefits grew. Last year some employees received no increases and the average county raise was 1.5 percent while private citizens and retirees look for second jobs to survive.

Scott County pays over $1,000 per month for health insurance for a family of 4 and employees pay about three hundred and fifty dollars. Something else strange is the County has 120 well paid Supervisors for less than 700 employees, amounting to one supervisor for every 6 employees! If a private business did this, they might be out of business. Could it be possible that they were promoted in order to give larger increases available through the Union contracts?

We need to hold down taxes.

Commissioner Menden, for example, does not charge the County the 50 dollars extra pay for attending meetings, or mileage and declined 10,000 dollars of his salary. We need to vote for Commissioners Menden, Wolf and Wagner to keep the conservative balance of this Board.

Dear Editor: Who is Jerry Kucera and why would he make a good Scott County Commissioner? Having worked with Jerry for over 12 years now, I should be able to summarize his resume.

Jerry is a licensed insurance agent for State Farm and has maintained his insurance agency in the area for over 25 years. He built his business one customer at a time. Having said this, he has a vested interest in the community and the people who live here.

He also successfully led the MN Valley Homeowners Association which was a local citizens group that helped to defeat the Q-Prime Amphitheater proposal. It was during this time that Jerry spent several years working with the elected officials and staff at Scott County and also with Louisville and Sand Creek Townships. He clearly demonstrated his leadership abilities in working with everyone involved on both sides of the issue.

It takes time to develop solid relationships in a community like ours. I think Jerry has proven over time that he is a person who is genuinely interested in being involved in local government. Integrity and the ability to communicate well with others – what more could we ask for in a candidate?

Please support Jerry by voting for him in the primary election on Tuesday, August 14th.

Shakopee Man Charged With Theft from Belle Plaine Couple A Shakopee man is facing felony theft charges for the theft of items from a Belle Plaine couple.

Jessie P. Fuller is charged with two counts of felony theft from his mother at her house on the 800 block of East Forest Street.

Currently being held in the county jail on a domestic assault charge, Fuller is due back in Scott County District Court Oct. 2.

According to the criminal charges, police were notified of the thefts July 7, a day after his mother returned from vacation.

Fuller allegedly stole a new rifle and (a .308 caliber Winchester) and a HP laptop computer. The charge says Investigator Terry Stier located the two items at pawnshops in Bloomington and Shakopee. He received $150 for the rifle and $152 for the laptop computer.

Belle Plaine Trail

Pre-registration is needed for all programs and activities

the entire road.

In a letter dated Aug. 2 from Township Clerk Jean McDermand to City Administrator David Murphy, it states: “I would like to thank you and the city council members for attending our meeting Tuesday night and once again trying to come to a conclusion for the Belle Plaine Trail improvement project. Based on the discussion that occurred, we are asking the city council to consider: Belle Plaine Township will pay 42.3 percent of the $128,113.60 construction costs, plus $15,000 in engineering costs. A payment in the amount of $60,537.05 will be given to the city from the township.�

City staff reported that it had reviewed the most recent discussion between the city council and township officials regarding the paving of Belle Plaine Trail. The substantive points of the agreement are as follows: – A $60,537.05 payment from the township when the agreement is executed. – The city will pave all of Belle Plaine Trail and assume maintenance. – The township will maintain the city’s portions of the gravel sections of Kittson Boulevard and Jason Avenue. – The city’s obligation ends if Belle Plaine Trail is vacated, abandoned, terminated or otherwise closed, and the township’s obligation ends when the gravel sections are paved. – The city has the right to post Belle Plaine Trail for weight

restriction and speed. – The township has the right to post gravel portions of city streets for weight restriction and speed.

The council Monday voted 51 to approve the above conditions, with Cary Coop accounting for the only no vote. Coop said he is not in favor of the city taking on all maintenance of Belle Plaine Trail, which he said will result in “Belle Plaine taxpayers paying more taxes (or having to cut services) so that Belle Plaine Township can have lower taxes.�

The consensus of the rest of the council was that there are enough gives and takes in the overall agreement, and now the road can finally be fixed.

The agreement won’t become official until the Belle Plaine Township Board formally approves it. Several township representatives were in attendance Monday, including Treasurer Kevin Slack. He said the township will likely call a special meeting as soon as possible to put its stamp of approval on the agreement rather than wait until its next regular board meeting in September.

Superintendent’s Update

Final cleaning details are being completed as our custodial crew finishes their work in preparing our school buildings for the start of the new school year. A small renovation project at Chatfield Elementary to provide some additional space for seven sections of Kindergarten is nearing completion and the building should be good to go in a couple of weeks. Thanks to our entire custodial staff for the great work they do keeping our buildings in such great shape!

On Monday, fall practices for our sports teams begin and the start of the school year will be just three weeks away. Also on that day, 43 teachers and administrators will be attending the first day of the Professional Learning Communities (PLCs) at Work Institute at the Minneapolis Convention Center. This three day workshop will provide a great knowledge base of PLCs for all of our staff as we begin our second year of PLC work within our school district. “The very essence of a learning community is a focus on and a commitment to the learning of each student. When a school or district functions as a PLC, educators within the organization embrace high levels of learning for all students as both the reason the organization exists and the fundamental responsibility of those who work within it. In order to achieve this purpose, the members of a PLC create and are guided by a clear and compelling vision of what the organization must become in order to help all students learn. They make collective commitments clarifying what each member will do to create such an organization, and they use results-oriented goals to mark their progress. Members work together to clarify exactly what each student must learn, monitor each student's learning on a timely basis, provide systematic interventions that ensure students receive additional time and support for learning when they struggle, and extend and enrich learning when students have already mastered the intended outcomes.� I am excited about the progress we have made in our PLC journey and know that with our great staff we will move forward even more thisBelle year as we work to help all students learn.

Plaine On oneHerald of our workshop days, we will be hosting our Desegregation Consortium partners, Nicolett and Sibley East at Oak Crest Elementary to hear speaker VJ Smith share information about customer service and excellence. V.J. Smith has been a professional speaker for more than a decade and is a published author of the book, “The Richest Man in Town�.

In additional to speaking to our staff on the morning of Wednesday, August 29th, Mr. Smith will also be presenting a public session at 5:30 p.m. that day in the South Gym of the high school. His presentation will be part of our junior high orientation, but all parents and public are invited to attend as well.

As always, if you have any questions about school matters, please feel free to call me at 873-2400 or check our website at www.belleplaine.k12.mn.us. Go Tigers!

A similar layout to the intersection of County Road 3 and Highway 169 in Belle Plaine, the three-quarters intersection in Cologne will prohibit north and southbound traffic on County Road 53 and Highway 284 from crossing Highway 212 and will also be prohibited from making a left-hand turn on to 212. Westbound traffic on Highway 212 will be able to turn to the south on 53 and eastbound traffic will be able to the north on 284.

Sen. Julianne Ortman

Gene Thomas Kornder

The Republican Party has promoted two constitutional amendments addressing voter identification and what constitutes a legal marriage in Minnesota? Do you support using the constitution to enact new laws rather than enacting new laws via the legislative process and why?

I support both constitutional initiatives on the November ballot. In both instances, the process provided in our constitution was followed, addressing the concerns heard from the citizens in our state. While there is rarely a unanimous voice regarding any issue, the legislature acted rightly to place both amendments on the ballot to be decided by all citizens.

What are the best facets of the Republican Party? I believe in the inspired character within each of us, in a government that is accountable to every citizen and does only that which can not be achieved by the citizens on their own. I believe in defending the family, the encouragement of free enterprise and to recognize individual achievement. Free people know best how to live their lives, raise their families, create and grow thriving businesses.

It is not the government’s role to decide winners and losers, but rather to provide for the free exchange of commerce, the protection of our citizens, and to defend our rights.

If elected, what are your priorities and (be specific) how will you accomplish them?

Pass entitlement reform, encourage personal responsibility, and significantly reduce our health & human services budget. I would reduce taxes to allow Minnesotans to keep more of their hard-earned income (they invest it more wisely than government), improve Minnesota’s economic competitiveness. I would comprehensively reform overly-complicated property taxes, especially DFL-engineered subsidies and wealth redistribution programs (e.g., LGA, fiscal disparities) and funding mechanisms for public schools. I would hold Mn/DOT accountable to build roads and bridges to meet current needs and future growth. I am working to secure the federal Highway 212 funds recently diverted; I will continue to oppose light rail, and empty subsidized Metro buses, in favor of roads.

The Republican Party has promoted two constitutional amendments addressing voter identification and what constitutes a legal marriage in Minnesota? Do you support using the constitution to enact new laws rather than enacting new laws via the legislative process and why? Yes. the Voter ID ballot question is a great example. Requiring a photo ID is common sense, popular across the state, and a reasonable standard for ensuring election integrity. In 2011, the Legislature passed a statutory plan for Voter ID; all DFL members voted no. Gov. Dayton vetoed the bill. Voters were dissatisfied with this result, so we returned to St. Paul in 2012 and worked to place the question on the ballot. Still, our overly-political secretary of state is attempting to hijack the election through a title change. I am a party to the Minnesota Supreme Court case challenging his actions.

What are the best facets of the Republican Party? I became a Republican at 16 when Gov. Anderson appointed himself senator, disrespecting the authority entrusted to him.

Minnesota raised income and

tion in caucuses and re-inspire confidence in party fiscal management. Effective communication and greater awareness of the purposes for caucuses and endorsement is needed. We need to simplify our platform so that our GOP brand stands for clear principles: limited, accountable government must be our highest priority. We must win elections to earn the opportunity to govern. Sometimes, the party forgets the importance of reaching out to swing voters and to swing districts in a big tent approach. We should refocus and re-double our efforts for 2012: our GOP legislative majorities are at risk.

Bruce Schwichtenberg San Francisco Twp.

Why are you seeking election to Minnesota Senate and why are you a better option than your opponent? I will support spending cuts. Progressives and moderates have given us a $16 trillion dollar debt at the federal level. As deputy majority leader and tax committee chair, my opponent has overseen a 13 percent increase in the state spending in two years.

If elected, what are your priorities and (be specific) how will you accomplish them?

No one can say there isn’t enough money in government.

I will work with people that are questioning the spending and make sure we fund the needs of government and cut the wants.

If this is not done soon, we won’t have the money for the needs. It is the legislature’s responsibility to allocate limited resources. We need to stop the duplication of effort from different agencies. We need to stop paying people not to work. We need to cut taxes to simulate job growth, not shifts, CUTS. The Republican Party has promoted two constitutional amendments addressing voter identification and what constitutes a legal marriage in Minnesota? Do you support using the constitution to enact new laws rather than enacting new laws via the legislative process and why?

This is a part of the legislative process. I believe these are two issues that need to be addressed constitutionally.

Democrats have introduced amendments and Republicans have. What is wrong with having the voters decide?

What are the best facets of the Republican Party? The hard-working activists. This bunch of people work hard, take care of their families, start businesses and believe in the Constitution. Over the last years, I’ve been an elected delegate and have helped form our party platform. It has promoted family values, personal responsibility, and liberty! They don’t expect handouts but are willing to help with a hand up.

What facets of the Republican Party would you change?

Quit giving the “R” to people who vote against the party platform.

Tigers to Return to State

Seeding Still to be Determined

by Brad Lawson “The Belle Plaine town baseball team has advanced to the Class ‘C’ State Tournament for the third straight season and fifth time in the past six years.

The Tigers swept the Saints of St. Peter in a best-of-three regional playoff series to continue their season. The Tigers won the first game 11-2 in St. Peter on Thursday night, and the clincher 5-1 in Belle Plaine on Friday night.

Team Tigertown will have at least one more game before the state tournament to determine the seeding heading into state.

On Friday, Belle Plaine will travel to Chanhassen to take on the Redbirds at 7:30 p.m. The winner of that game will take on the Jordan Brewers Saturday

at 4 p.m. in Jordan for the right to an all-important first-round state tournament bye.

The loser of the Friday night game will receive the No. 3 seed from Region 6C going into the tourney, whereas Saturday’s loser will be the No. 2 seed.

Check out www.bptigertown. com for updates on the Tiger run at state and to see which seed they receive this upcoming weekend. If the Tigers get the #1 seed, they will not play until Saturday, Aug. 25 at 11 a.m. If the Tigers get the #2 seed, they will play on Saturday, Aug. 18 at 11 a.m. If the Tigers get the #3 seed, they will play on Sunday, Aug. 19 at 1 p.m. The state tournament will be held in St. Cloud this year at the Dick Putz and Faber fields.

Tigers 11, St. Cloud 2 The Tigers and Saints started the game on Wednesday evening and finished it on Thursday

Hunting Opportunity for Youth and Women Youth and women who want to learn how to hunt upland birds from an experienced hunter can do so Saturday, Oct. 20, at a variety of Minnesota locations.

Co-sponsored by Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, hunt participants are paired with mentors from Pheasants Forever, Woodcock Minnesota and the Ruffed Grouse Society.

After discussing safety, habitat, ethics, scouting for places to hunt and securing landowner permission when necessary, mentors take participants to the field for a hunt.

Parents and guardians must accompany youth at all times and at all events.

To participate in the lottery, youth must be 12-17 years old as of Oct. 20; have earned a valid firearms safety certificate; possess a small game license; and have a parent, guardian or adult authorized by a parent or guardian accompany them as a non-firearms carrying mentor to join the youth at a pre-hunt orientation as well as the hunt.

Free small game licenses are available to a youth younger than 16 at any licensing agent.

Reduced-fee licenses also are available for youth 16 and 17.

Women 18 and older do not need a parent or guardian to accompany them but will need a valid firearms safety certificate or an apprentice hunter validation certification, pheasant stamp (if pheasant hunting) and small game license.

All applicants must specify in which county or area they want to hunt, if they are willing to travel farther if their choice of area is not available and how far they are willing to travel.

Some hunts may occur on Sunday, Oct. 21.

Applications are due Monday, Sept. 10. They are available online at www.mndnr.gov/discover or by contacting the DNR Information Center at 651-2966157 or 888-646-6367. Successful applicants will be notified via mail or e-mail by the end of September.

Landowners with pheasant or grouse-producing property interested in allowing youth or novice women to hunt on their land can help out by contacting Pheasants Forever’s Eran Sandquist at 763-242-1273.

night. The two teams played three-plus innings Wednesday before lightning postponed the game to the following night.

When Tigertown came back on Thursday night, they were down 1-0 with the bases loaded, two outs in the fourth and Miah Fogarty at the plate.

While Fogarty struck out, the Tigers scored in every inning after that and cruised to an 11-2 game one victory.

The Tigers started Brad Lawson on Wednesday but switched pitchers the following night, throwing Shawn Larson at the Saints. He gave up one run on one hit and a walk. Larson was on the top of his game, going four innings with six strikeouts and three hits allowed. Zac Dahlke came on to finish the game, giving up a run on three hits and a walk.

Tiger bats were red hot, and were led by Lawson who had a career-high five hits. Larson added three hits, while Travis Latzke and Dylan Nyberg contributed two apiece. Dan Huber knocked out his first home run of the year as he deposited a ball to deep left-center field.

Tigers 5, St. Peter 1 The Tigers had their first chance to secure a spot in the state tourney and didn’t waste time punching their ticket.

Tigertown sent young lefty Ryan Diers to the mound and he looked great. Diers struck out a career-high 16 batters, allowing only one run on five hits in a complete-game gem. The only problem Diers faced was control issues at times as he hit four Saints batters.

The Tiger bats were hot once again, tallying 10 hits. Travis Latzke led the team with three knocks, followed by Larson and Matt Schultz with two apiece.

The Tiger defense was stellar, committing no errors.

Girls’ Fall Softball League Forming

Sheriff’s Youth Cat Fishing Derby The 12th annual Scott County Sheriff’s Office Youth Cat Fishing Derby took place Monday on the Minnesota River. Fifty youth (31 males and 19 females) caught 416 fish, the largest measuring 31.5 inches by Olivia Smith of Prior Lake. There was a tie for the most caught by an individual (28) by Shealynn Burke of Jordan and Nicole Robertson of Shakopee. Numerous prizes were awarded during a participant raffle. Among this year’s participants, below, from left, were Evan Bush and Andrew Nissen, both of Prior Lake. Pictured below is the entire group of participants and volunteers at the Scott County Fairgrounds in St. Lawrence Township, which was the event’s headquarters. The purpose of the Scott County Sheriff’s Office Youth Cat Fishing Derby is to give kids a chance to get to know public safety personnel as people. In addition, the derby gives young people the occasion to experience a hobby they can continue for a lifetime. Statistics show that youth turn to alcohol, tobacco and other drugs partially because of boredom. Hopefully, for some, fishing will provide another option.

Don’t stop playing fastpitch softball when summer ends.

Play Fall Ball and let the fun continue.

The Belle Plaine Fastpitch Association sponsors this shortened season of fastpitch softball for girls between the ages of 8 and 16. Doubleheader games will be played on the following Sundays – Aug. 26, Sept. 9 and 16. There will be a state qualifier tournament on Sept. 22 and 23, with a state tournament being held on Sept. 29-30.

Due to the “short season” the

association will need to have a commitment from players who will be able to play every Sunday for league play and weekends for tournaments.

The cost is approximately $75 (may be less depending on number of girls) and there will be one practice per week.

You can submit a 2012 Fall Ball interest form online at www.leaguelineup.com/bpfa if your daughter is interested in playing. This is not a commitment, but rather an idea of how many girls are interested.
