Council Awards Bid for Ravine Work; Eases Easement Ordinance

This new 20,000-square-foot facility at Ag Power in Belle Plaine will be mainly used as an enlarged equipment repair shop for the business. It’s expected to be completed and operational within the next few weeks.

New Ag Power Building Nears Completion Ag Power’s new 20,000square-foot building in Belle Plaine is nearing completion and should be ready for use within the next two to three weeks, according to Belle Plaine Ag Power owner Keith Siemon.

Siemon said the building, which is replacing a smaller facility on the same site along Old Highway 169 Boulevard, will be used as a vehicle and equipment repair shop that features larger doors and work space with overhead cranes to

accommodate today’s larger equipment.

This building is phase one of an overall plan that in the next several years (depending on growth) will also include a new parts area, retail and office space totaling some 16,000 square feet.

Belle Plaine Students Enjoy Solid Showing on State Science Tests

Belle Plaine public school students did very well in their first round of Minnesota Comprehensive Assessment testing using the new state science standards last spring.

Results released yesterday morning (Sept. 18) indicate that 56.2 percent of Belle Plaine’s fifth, eighth and high school students who took the test last spring exceeded the state average for proficiency among public school students (50.5 percent). The results continue a trend of being at or above the state standards. In 2011, 53 percent of Belle Plaine students achieved proficiency on the test compared to the state average of 48 percent. The previous year, 48 percent of Belle Plaine students were proficient on the state exams. Statewide in 2010,

49 percent of public school students were proficient on the MCA science exams.

The 2012 science assessments were based on the new state standards. Those standards included physical science, earth science, life science and engineering skills, said Carol Lagergren, the curriculum director the Belle Plaine School District shares with Jordan public schools.

Lagergren said Belle Plaine’s results were “comparable” to those in Jordan public schools.

She’ll review the Belle Plaine results and compare them to results from other schools in the Minnesota River Conference (MRC) at Monday’s school board meeting.

“Overall, the (Belle Plaine) district did well and is pleased

with the continued growth of its students,” Lagergren said.

Belle Plaine’s fifth-graders especially shined on the new state exams. Over 86 percent of last year’s fifth-graders were proficient on the exam, well above the state average of 57 percent proficiency. The fifth-grade results have been building since 2010, when 44 percent of the students tested were proficient.

In 2011, 64 percent of the fifthgraders tested achieved proficiency.

“Fifth-grade students did exceptionally well which follows an outstanding trend started by teachers last year,” Lagergren

Tests

by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine City Council Monday night unanimously awarded the bid for the 2012 Cherry Street stormwater intake and Oak ravine project to Selly Excavating of Le Center, which had the low bid of $22,191.

Two other bids were received – Chard Tiling and Excavating of Belle Plaine ($25,940) and Schneider Excavating and Grading of Young America ($33,030).

The project is the result of the numerous heavy rains that fell earlier this year. Staff reported that the Cherry Street ravine area typically experiences some erosion but that the large amount of rainfall that occurred in a very short period created some substantial gullies.

“This project is a priority due to its proximity to the railroad and the access that is needed to the DNR trails,” reported City Administrator David Murphy, adding that the project will be paid for from the city’s stormwater fund, which has sufficient money to cover the cost.

Paul Nordell of the DNR addressed the council stating the importance of the project. He said the washouts resulting from the erosion are limiting the DNR’s ability to access the area for cleanup and mosquito control efforts along the river in that area.

In other business Monday night, the council unanimously approved an amendment to the city ordinance that will make it easier for the city to allow private structures on drainage and utility easement areas, as well as bluff areas, provided that property owners agree in writing that they will remove the structure if and when the time

What a difference a week can make – or depending on how you look at it – months. The Belle Plaine Trail, which was the subject of numerous discussions between the Belle Plaine City Council and Belle Plaine Township Board this year regarding cost sharing and future maintenance, etc., was reconstructed into a new road last week by Chard Tiling and Excavating of Belle Plaine. Prior to last week, the mile-long road (between Ashford Way and Highway 169) was nearly impassable as it was infested with crater-like potholes from beginning to end.

But the council and township board finally came at a compromise recently that resulted in the road being fixed at last. The cost of the project was approximately $128,000, which is basically being split between the city and township. The city will assume future maintenance costs.

ply for variances to keep the structures in place. The planning and zoning commission had recommended likewise.

The types of structures that will be allowed in easement and bluff setback areas, provided they could easily be removed as determined by city staff, are: – Accessory structures 120 square feet or less without a permanent foundation.

– Retaining walls for landscaping provided drainage patterns are not affected.

comes the city needs to utilize the easement.

On Aug. 20, the council voted unanimously to deny a resident’s request for an after-thefact variance to allow a 10- by 12-foot storage shed to remain within the utility easement area at 108 Oakwood Drive. However, because there are so many other similar structures located on utility easements throughout the city and other requests have come in for more variances, the council decided to call for Monday’s public hearing on amendments to the ordinance that will make it easier for people in the community to successfully ap-

With the Minnesota Gambling Control Board approving electronic gambling as a means to help fund the state’s share of the Minnesota Vikings stadium, Belle Plaine business owners expect the arrival of e-pull tabs is a matter of when, not if.

Tom Meger, the charitable gambling manager for the Belle Plaine Chamber of Commerce expects downtown establishments will want the new electronic devices.

So far, he right.

Kristine Koniarski, one of the owners of Johan’s Bar & Grill, and Charlie Hartman, owner of Huck’s Shipwreck Saloon both expect their customers will be interested in the new form of gaming.

“I think it’s great that technology is adding this,” Koniarski said. “It’s different and will be exciting.”

Hartman believes the new electronic gaming will draw additional customers to his popular establishment. He believes the new leased devices will be affordable, costing a percentage of the profits, similar to existing electronic devices.

Meger expects to learn more about the devices and the games they provide when he attends a conference later this month in Mankato. He also plans to attend a trade show in Duluth

where the company that manufactures the devices shows off its wares.

From what he’s heard to date, Meger said only one company, a firm based in Las Vegas, makes the devices and games they operate. That could lead

River Down But Not Confidence Jay of Minneapolis didn’t mind that the Minnesota River was at one of its lowest levels in a number of years. He said he heard that near the bridge in Belle Plaine is where many large catfish from a contest (Belle Plaine River Fishin’ Contest) are returned to in August, and just in case any decided to stick around, Jay wanted to give fishing here a try last Monday. According to a recent report from the National Weather Service, the water level gauge in Jordan showed the river at 4.48 feet deep, which is quite low but not near the record of 2.66 feet set on Nov. 22, 1935.

Corridor Clearing for Transmission Line Hundreds of trees in Faxon Township are being cleared this week atop the bluff for a corridor in which CapX 2020’s high-voltage transmission line will run. The line will extend down the hill and across the Minnesota River and into Blakeley Township. Workers for the power line consortium are expected to begin digging footings for the 345-kilovolt power line later this fall.

In early-winter, they’ll begin work on footings on Scott County’s side of the river.

After spending decades acquiring them, Fritz Widmer will watch all but one of his prized classic cars, tractors and collectibles, including original neon signs, sold at an auction at his home (12250 122nd Street, Cologne) Oct. 6-7.

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2012

The four-person British band – The New Prairie Home Companions – recently stopped in Belle Plaine on their way out West. The band’s members include (from left) Evelyn May, Stan Gee, Marie Walker and her son, Gabriel.

Belle Plaine Wins High Praise Cologne Man Will Bid Collection From Guests Across the Pond of a Lifetime a Fond Farewell

by John Mueller He has spent much of his adult life collecting treasurers ranging from classic cars to original oilcans, original neon signs, tractors, antique porcelain, rare antique gasoline and steam engines, vintage tractors even a horse-drawn funeral coach.

Next month, it will all be gone.

“I wonder what it will look like, to come out here and see this all empty,” Fritz Widmer said, standing outside a 50-by200 shed that houses enough original neon and classic cars to stop even a novice car enthusiastic in his tracks.

Oct. 6-7, hundreds, perhaps thousands, of collectors will turn their attention to Fritz and Jane Widmer’s home along a gravel road in rural Cologne for what auctioneer Yvette VanDerBrink is promoting as a “fabulous auction with something for everyone.” She is predicting the car- and tractor-related collections will draw collectors from throughout the United States as well as international bidders to Cologne. Bids will also be accepted online.

The first day of the auction is dedicated to Widmer’s collector cars, the funeral coach, gas and oil collectibles, porcelain signs, neon beer signs and pumps.

The second day, bidding will be focused on collector tractors, buggies, gas engines, an impressive gun collection, vintage tractor seats, vintage tools and more.

The collection includes vintage cars from Ford, Hudson, Packard, Studebaker, Corvette, Frazer and Chrysler. Nearly all of them run.

He has a 1929 “Eskomobile,”

a Ford truck with an 18-inch wide track on the rear end and a ski on the front end. “It’s a good little runner,” Widmer said.

There’s a story with most of the cars. The 1947 Frazer dates back to a time before Kaiser and Frazer merged. “It’s got good sheet metal,” he said. “I keep it mainly for the younger guys.”

The 1939 Ford he has marks the last year Ford made a car with an rumble seat. The car is one of the first made with hydraulic brakes, Widmer said.

In the far end of the shed sits a 1952 Hudson pickup truck.

He converted it from a passenger car, adding the pickup bed.

The design is based on the 1948 Hudson pickup.

“I went to Detroit and measured everything out,” he said.

He points out a 1955 Packard Caribbean, a car he calls “a sleeper.” Widmer expects bidders will be impressed and will bring a nice price.

“It’s a nice, nice car, a good runner,” Widmer said. “I bought it from a guy way out in the sticks. I drove a long ways to get there. It was way up north.”

VanDerBrink believes Widmer, like many collectors, enjoyed the hunt for collectibles as much as owning them.

It’s Time

To his credit, the 79-year-old Widmer is holding the sale because he believes the classic vehicles should to be driven and used, not stored away. Knocking on an oak table, Widmer says his health is good, but he’s reached a point in his life where properly caring for the vehicles requires more time and effort

than he and his wife wish to offer. He doesn’t want to see them decay, but rather driven and appreciated.

“They always need a new battery,” he said.

The construction company Widmer and his wife, Jane, founded many years ago in Spring Park provided him the means to assemble the collection. But she doesn’t want to have to deal with the collection, so they decided to sell the collection via an auction.

Is there one car in the collection he’d keep? Widmer can make a case for the 1950 Buick, a ’55 Packard, the big ’59 Ford with its retractable roof and the ’39 Ford. They all evoke fond memories.

“I can’t decide,” he said. “I suppose I’m going to keep one, but I don’t have to decide today.”

Fritz and Jane moved to rural Cologne from Spring Park in 1987. She couldn’t imagine moving this far out of town until she experienced the quiet and rural setting of the area and its natural beauty. They met at a dance. The couple has been married over 50 years and enjoys the simple life.

“I was never a collector,” Jane said.

“I don’t remember not collecting,” Fritz said.

There will be no sadness associated with the auction. The couple’s six children – four boys and two girls – will all be present for it. They’re not interested in the cars, either.

“That’s my fault,” Widmer said. “They feel it’s a lot of work. I guess they got that from me. They feel there’s more to life.”

name and the interchange caught their attention. The foursome was impressed with the community. They liked the well-kept houses with large front porches.

“It’s similar to a small town in England, but you can’t see it like you can here because the streets are so bloody narrow,” Gee said.

Gee enjoys visiting the United States, in part because of the wide-open spaces. Large cities and small towns in the UK are frequently quite dense.

“There’s nowhere in England where you can’t see (human) habitat,” Gee said.

They would have preferred the timing of their trip coincided with the 2012 Summer Olympics, three weeks when all of England was bustling with activity. They’re happy to see life there back to normal. The games and its television coverage likely reinforced a misconception many Americans and much of the world holds about England.

“It seems everyone things that all of England is like London,” he said.

Hearings ruled the pro-Republican literature had a logo of the Senate Republican Caucus and a link to the Senate Victory Fund, a violation of state law.

Robling said the inclusion of the logo and link was an unfortunate error by a staff person on the Senate Republican Communications Office.

Republicans who testified during a hearing at the Office of Administrative Hearings indicated they did not know the links were for the Senate Victory Fund.

“I thought that everything had been done appropriately and legally,” DeKruif said, “but in light of the ruling, I’ll take the higher ground and pay the $75 fine.”

DeKruif and Robling did not file for re-election.

They were headed toward western South Dakota to see Mount Rushmore, the Crazy Horse Memorial and any other sights along the way that draws their attention. If possible, Gee hoped a visit to Cody, Wyo. fit into the group’s plans before they were due to head back to England last Friday (Aug. 31).

It was hardly a British invasion that will have people forgetting the Beatles, but a visiting English string band that hopes to one day hit the big time had high praise for Belle Plaine.

The four-person band – The New Prairie Home Companions – stopped here last month on its way out West to play wherever work calls. The group and founder Stan Gee hopes to one day use the band’s name to win a performance on its namesake, Prairie Home Companion Show. They’re big fans of Garrison Keillor and dream of performing with him on stage.

“We pinched the name hoping we might get a gig one day,” said Evelyn May, Gee’s partner.

“It sounds cheeky, but we’d really like to be there.”

The band hails from Whitby, a small town in northeast England, not far from New Castle.

Its members include Gee and May, Gee’s partner, Evelyn May. Recent additions include Marie Walker and her teenage son, Gabriel. They all play stringed instruments – guitar, bass, banjo, the Autoharp, mandolin, harmonica and ukulele.

Where the Indian Trouble Started

Letter to the Editor Dear Editor: What if political campaigns were driven by the important issues of the day? What if public held accountable those candidates who ran a negative campaign? What if voters could weigh the pros and cons of a candidate based on information that was truthful and verifiable?

What if‌?

With less than two months remaining from a long political season, campaigns by local candidates will be much more visible. Candidates have been working for months door knocking and phone calling, courting potential voters in hopes of securing elected office on November 6. Unfortunately, it’s this time of year also when the worst aspect of campaigning will begin to rear its ugly head: negative campaigning. Often times, these tactics are beyond the control of the candidate’s campaign plan. Interest groups, constituents, political parties, and political action committees will unleash their own brand of politics with absolutely no input from the candidates themselves.

Within the past two weeks alone – in two different newspapers I have been accused of creating Minnesota’s six billion dollar deficit, ignoring constituents west of I-35, for my reelection, I relied exclusively on “liberal Northfield,� college students and unions outside our district, doing nothing for public school funding, and worst of all, that I, as a teacher, fought against the interests of students in the legislature. These attacks did not come from my opponent but by someone I never met and one who knows absolutely nothing about my campaign and little of my legislative record.

I was visiting with a woman from my church a few weeks ago. She told me she had been subjected to a push poll over the phone. “Will you be supporting Kevin Dahle for the Minnesota Senate in the upcoming election?â€? When she answered yes, the unidentified caller asked, “Will you be supporting Kevin Dahle even though he‌ (insert lies, half-truths, positions out of context, etc. here)? A push poll, by definition, is not a poll at all.

It is a telemarketing technique to influence or alter the view of respondents based on propaganda, innuendo, and/or rumors. In a push poll, large numbers of respondents are contacted and little or no effort is made to collect and analyze response data. Other constituents have contacted me with tales of phone calls that denigrate my campaign rather than tout their own endorsed candidate. Fortunately, it did not change their mind. But what of those who are seeking information on candidates and are influenced by such base tactics? Is this really the best way to treat our electorate? Do we really deem an informed citizenry as a threat to the political process?

I am determined to continue to run a positive campaign. My volunteers will talk only about the Dahle campaign and the assets that I can bring to the legislature. We have not and will not talk about my opponent in a negative way. We actually prefer not to talk about my opponent at all. I pursue this ideal because I believe this is the type of campaign people across Minnesota would like to see. The negative ads and the negative campaigning we see at the Federal level leave them frustrated. There are some groups who have the legal right to support me in a manner that I do not believe is constructive.

I do not become aware of such methods until the “horse has already left the barn.� However, I assure you that any attack on my opponent will not come from nor ever be sanctioned by me. When in doubt, I encourage any person from any party to contact me with the opportunity to set the record straight.

Because of negative campaigning, many voters have told me they may not even vote this year. This sense of futility undermines our democratic process. I tell them they cannot give up on their right to vote.

Voting has been and will be the supreme act that buoys the citizen above the negative flotsam and jetsam of an ill-conceived campaign. Even if you vote for my opponent, I want you to vote. It’s too important a decision to be left to the few.

Of that I am positive!

Kevin Dahle, Minnesota Senate candidate, Senate Dist. 20

IS IT TIME FOR LIFE INSURANCE Important life events may call for it.

Presented by Pete Plut

Just as many people between the ages of 30 and 50 lack a will, many also lack life insurance. A March 2011 survey from Genworth Financial and the University of Virginia’s Darden School of Business found that almost 70% of single parents and 45% of married parents were living without any coverage.1 Why don’t more young adults buy life insurance? Shopping for life insurance may seem confusing, boring, or unnecessary. Yet when you have kids, get married, buy a house or live a lifestyle funded by significant salaries, the need arises.

Finding the right policy may be simpler than you think. There are two basic types of life insurance: term and cash value. Cash value (or “permanent�) life insurance policies offer death benefits and a percentage of the money you spend to fund the policy goes into a savings program. Cash value policies have correspondingly higher premiums than term policies, which give you death benefits only and have terms of 10 years or longer. Term is a great choice for many young adults because it is relatively inexpensive. There is an economic downside to term life coverage: if you outlive the term of the policy, you and/or your loved ones get nothing back. Term life policies can be renewed (though many are not) and some can be converted to permanent coverage.2 The key question is: how long do you plan to keep the policy? If you don’t want to pay premiums on an insurance policy for more than 10 years, then term life stands out as the most attractive option. If you are just looking for a short-term hedge against

calamity, that’s the whole reason behind term life insurance. If you’re getting into estate planning, then permanent life insurance may prove a better choice.

It may be cheaper than you think.

Premiums on 10-year level guaranteed term policies may be more affordable than you think.

Confer, compare and contrast. Talk with a financial or insurance professional you trust before plunking down money for a policy. That professional can perform a term-versuspermanent analysis for you and help you weigh per-policy variables.

Aargh! September 19 is International Talk Like a Pirate Day. Go to the internet and try this URL:http://www.talklikeapirate.com/. At first, this did not seem like something that translated into a library related thing. Just to test that theory, I went to http://www. scott.lib.mn.us/ on the internet, “clicked on Web Catalog & Account Info� and “shiver me timbers�, I was wrong. My search was answered by 17 pages of library materials that referenced pirates. We had books on how to draw pictures of pirates, pirate stories, historical accounts of pirates, and pirate movies.

Some of the books talk about piracy, as it exists, today and the many forms piracy can take. We have the action movies from the popular “Pirates of the Caribbean� series. There are animated movies with Captain Hook (of Peter Pan fame) as well as a Dustin Hoffman movie called “Hook�. I was stunned by wide range of materials. There was everything from fun to serious, historically old to today’s news, and information to advice on dealing with pirates. If any of this intrigues you, sail up to your local library and come on board. By the way, on this day, pirates are required to refer to women as “me beauty�. I expect no less.

September is Library Card Sign Up Month. We are observing the American Library Association national campaign to increase library awareness.

During the month of September, you can get a free library card or free replacement library card. If you library card is lost or damaged or you never took the time to get a library card, now is the time to do so. Many people have taken advantage of this special program. Don’t put it off. I don’t know if you have noticed yet, but September is rapidly disappearing.

The Adult Book Club that meets here at the Belle Plaine Library on the 4th Thursday of each month at 7 p.m. is looking for new members. This month they are reading “Spirit Car� by Diane Wilson. If you would like to join the club, stop at the library to get a copy of the book.

Meeting is on September 27.

Several fought their way to the windmill where their unerring shots telling fearfully upon the Indians, and finally forcing them to retire. At night these brave men set fire to the building, and then retreated within the barricades, in the vicinity of the Dakota House. During he firing from this mill a most determined and obstinate fight kept up from the brick post office, where Governor Swift was stationed, which told most fatally upon the foe, and from this point many an Indian fell before the deadly aim of the true men stationed there.

At the stage of the battle in which Captain Dodd of St. Peter was killed several others also were either killed or wounded.

The contest was continued until dark, when the enemy began to carry off their dead and wounded. In the morning of the next day (Sunday) a feeble firing was kept up for several hours by a sullen and retiring foe.

The battle of new Ulm has been fought, and the whites were masters of the field; but at what a fearful price! The dead and dying and wounded filled the buildings left standing, and this beautiful and enterprising German town, which on Monday morning contained over two hundred buildings, had been laid in ashes, only 25 houses remaining to mark the spot where New Ulm once stood.

On Sunday afternoon, Captain Cox’s command, one hundred and fifty volunteers from Nicollet, Sibley and Le Sueur, armed with Austrian rifles, shot guns and hunting rifles, arrived. The Indians retreated, and returned no more to make battle with the forces at New Ulm. But what a strange battle field. The Indians deserted it on Sunday, and on Monday the successful defenders also retire from a place they dare not attempt to hold! The town was evacuated. All the women and children, and the wounded men, making one hundred and fifty-three wagon loads, while a considerable number composed the company on foot. All these moved with the command of Judge Flandrau towards Mankato.

The loss to our force in this engagement was ten killed, and about fifty wounded. The loss of the enemy is unknown, but must have been heavy, as ten of their dead were found on the field of battle, which they had been unable to remove.

Volumes might be filled with the incidents and miraculous escapes from death, but our limits absolutely forbid their introduction in this abridgement.

The reader must consult the larger work for these details.

The individual experience of so many in the loss of one or more families are rather too numerous for me to mention and consequently have tried to confine myself to the main part of the battles. Fort Ridgely next week.

BELLE PLAINE HERALD, BELLE PLAINE, MINNESOTA

!-

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor: The smartest people I know graduated from one room school houses. My favorite scientist, Norman Borlaug, Cisco Township Iowa. My favorite Governor, Al Quie, Vasa Township Eastern Minnesota. My favorite school principal, my favorite businessman, my Mother, all started in one room school houses in rural locations.

With the teacher strike in Chicago, I am once again pondering how we educate our children.

The voices surrounding us are making increasingly conflicting claims. One group argues we need to support business and community growth. One group argues about the growing divide between successful and unsuccessful students. One group argues that education can be standardized. The next group argues that education must be individualized for every student. Several groups say we spend too much.

I think Belle Plaine is in excellent shape with parents, teachers, and staff working closely together for students. My concern is that in the name of students some Republicans are attacking teacher unions and therefore teachers. I have to say here that three of my four children (counting spouses) are teachers.

As you go to the polls November 6th pay attention to the rhetoric of the candidates. If their anti-government, anti-tax views are not enough to change your mind, check what kind of education reform they advocate. I will vote for candidates that support public schools and public school teachers. I will campaign against candidates who attack public school teachers.

Larry Kiewel Belle Plaine

Dear Editor, Though I shouldn’t be, I am constantly amazed at the compassion and support shown by the Belle Plaine community, both residential and commercial. I shouldn’t be amazed, I guess, because nearly every

week I read in the Belle Plaine Herald of the community’s support for a family that has met hardship due to Mother Nature’s wrath, a child and its family in need of funds to help with medical bills, a family needing assistance because of a vehicle accident, or some other type of disaster.

As the treasurer of the Belle Plaine Food Shelf, I get to see how funds come into our account, and I am responsible for writing the checks to our venders. The donations we receive come strictly through the empathy, compassion and support of the community. We try our best to use those funds in the wisest and most responsible way. Here are some examples: The Belle Plaine Food Shelf is a strictly volunteer organization. There are no paid employees here. Volunteers may serve as little as two to three hours a month, or as many as 10 to 15 hours a week. We are a force of over 100 volunteers from the community, without whose dedication and caring we wouldn’t and couldn’t exist.

We owe our volunteers a lot.

We use the financial resources we receive to purchase food through Second Harvest Heartland, where our $1 to Second Harvest can purchase the equivalent of $9 worth of food in the retail market. That food, designed to provide five to seven meals per person per family per month, is provided at no cost to our clients.

Through Second Harvest, we have an arrangement with Coborn’s called a “rescue� program where we receive food from them that is close to its “sell by� date. This is food that,

by Coborn’s policy, was previously thrown out. It costs us nothing and we distribute it to our clients, and usually have it off our shelves before the expiration date. It’s a win – win – win situation. The clients receive a greater variety of food, we get food at no cost to the food shelf, and, through a donation receipt program, Coborn’s gets credit for the amount of food donated to use as a tax write-off, rather than just throwing that food away.

The next time you are in Coborn’s, please locate one of

their managers and thank him for their support of the food shelf.

In May, the food shelf decided to purchase the building at 128 Meridian Street N., rather than continue renting the building at 149 Meridian Street N. The reason? Even after including remodeling loans, we pay more than $87 less per month than with paid in rent, and at the end of 10 years, the Belle Plaine Food Shelf will have saved over $10,440 in community donations. Those funds will instead, go towards food and the operation of the food shelf, and at the end of 10 years, the food shelf will own the building.

Written into our policy, by the way, is a statement that, should the food shelf cease to be needed any more (wouldn’t that be wonderful?), the building is to be sold, and the proceeds donated to the community’s school scholarship program.

I am, as I wrote before, extremely pleased and thankful of the way the food shelf has been accepted and supported here in Belle Plaine. It is my prayer that as we enter into our second year, the support will continue this year and through the coming years, in physical, financial and volunteer time contributions, and that the community will continue to support of our annual event in November.

There is another way, however, that people can support the food shelf. We are currently at or near the peak of production for our home gardens. The food shelf needs fresh fruit and vegetables. If community members should happen to have a couple of extra tomatoes, some beans or zucchini or cucumbers, or some apples off the tree in the back yard, they could drop them by the food shelf on Saturday mornings between 9 and noon or Wednesday evenings between 5 and 7 p.m. Food shelf volunteers will gladly issue a receipt for any donation.

On the behalf of the Belle Plaine Food Shelf, I would like to extend my appreciation to the community for its continued compassion and support.

Sincerely, Tom Bartholomew, treasurer, Belle Plaine Food Shelf

(continued from page 1) said.

Through their work in professional learning communities (PLCs), teachers focused on making sure students focused on three primary questions - what do they want students to know and do, how will they know when students earn success, and what do they do for students who are not successful or who are highly successful through remediation or enrichment.

Just over 45 percent of last year’s eighth-graders were proficient on the science exam.

Statewide, fewer than 42 percent were proficient.

Eighth-graders also showed consistent proficiency from last year, in spite of the new standards and skills. In 2010, 37 percent of them were proficient, a number that jumped to 46 percent in 2011.

“While the fifth-grade curriculum is comprehensive and covers all areas of science instruction, middle/junior high school textbooks are based on specific strands of science,” Lagergren said. “Sixth-grade focuses on physical science standards and skills. Seventh-grade science focuses on life science standards and skills while eighthgrade science earth science standards and skills, with engineering standards and skills sprinkled throughout.”

The “more focused instruction” makes review and remediation of previously learned strands more challenging, she said, as indicated by the drop in the state average from fifth to eighth grades (57 percent down to 41 percent proficiency).

The results from the senior high school were not as positive. Almost 42 percent of last year’s sophomores who took the exams achieved proficiency.

Statewide, about 52 percent of the senior high-schoolers that took the exam were proficient.

“High School students will continue to be assessed on life skills (biology standards) only,” Lagergren said. “Staff will work this year to align the new textbook adoption and instruction with the current assessed standards and skills.”

My Pillow Bidding Carver Farewell, Taking 200 Jobs With It After a recent spat over its apparent failure to follow terms of the company’s conditionaluse permit (CUP), My Pillow is leaving Carver and taking 200 jobs out of the city.

The company’s founder, Mike Lindell, recently announced he’s moving the company to Shakopee, leaving behind a 45,000-square-foot leased building. My Pillow employs 200 people in Carver, 500 people overall. They manufacture about 7,000 pillows daily.

Lindell decided to relocate the company rather than pay the cost of coming into compliance with the CUP the Carver City Council granted him. He said Shakopee is providing him with financial incentives to relocate. Lindell claimed it would cost $500,000 to achieve com-

pliance with the conditions of the CUP. The city wanted him to pave the parking lot, build a fence and paint his building.

Lindell claimed it would cost him $200,000 to pave the parking lot.

The leased building was originally a bus garage. The city credited Lindell and building owner Dick Lenzen for trying to make the building work as a manufacturing facility.

Carver Mayor Greg Osterdyk said the council was not trying to run My Pillow out of town. City Administrator Brent Marek called My Pillow’s departure a business decision and not the result of the city council enforcing the CUP Lindell sought and accepted.

A benefit for Cindy Laabs Denzer, who is currently in treatment for colon caner, will take place on Saturday, Sept. 29 from 3-7 p.m. at St. John Lutheran Church in Belle Plaine.

Food will be served (freewill offering). A silent auction will take place, for which items are being sought.

– Fences provided drainage patterns are not affected.

– Above-ground, non-permanent swimming pools. *Unanimously approved the hiring of Logan Haskins as a part-time police officer for the Belle Plaine Police Department.

Staff reported that five other applicants were interviewed for the job, which pays $14.50 per hour with no benefits. Part-time officers do not work a scheduled shift and are utilized to cover vacation, sick time and special city events. *Unanimously approved a resolution modifying the city’s fee schedule by adding an identification card fee for peddler permit applications. The action, which was requested by Council Member Cary Coop, means that peddlers wishing to operate within the city limits of Belle Plaine will now need to obtain a photo identification card through the city. Normal business delivery transactions and individuals representing non-profit organizations such as

new council member, and City Administrator David Murphy have discussions with the Minnesota Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) to gain a better understanding of the preferred alternative and Mn/ DOT’s position on the project. *Murphy reported that during a recent SCALE Services Delivery Committee meeting, there was “much” discussion on the current purpose of the Metropolitan Council versus its original intent. Murphy said the consensus was that there will be limited progress as the Met Council is dominated by representatives from Minneapolis and St. Paul. “Complicating the problem is the fact that there has not been a representative from Scott County for many years,” Murphy added.

The next regular meeting of the Belle Plaine City Council is scheduled for 6 p.m. Oct. 1 in the Belle Plaine Government Center at 218 North Meridian Street downtown.

recommended the city adopt a League of Minnesota Cities formula which uses the value of structures rather than agricultural land as well as the average number of calls for service over a three-year period.

Sven Mattson, Henderson Township supervisor, said the formula the city supports is unfair to the townships.

He argued about 40 percent of a township’s annual budget goes to fire service. Townships, he said, rely solely on dollars levied from taxpayers because they don’t receive state or federal aid. Mattson said he’s more interested in equity than being hard-nosed.

Tyrone and Ottawa townships are the only townships completely in the Le Sueur Fire Department’s fire district. The Le Sueur Fire Department as well as the Henderson Fire Department serves Henderson TownThe ship.

Township representatives seemingly like the quality of service they receive from the Le Sueur Fire Department. They just want to pay less for it.

Representatives of the City of Le Sueur, the area townships served by the Le Sueur Fire Department (Derrynane, Henderson, Kelso, Lake Prairie, Ottawa, Sharon and Tyrone) and the fire service commission have been discussing a suitable split of costs of fire service in 2013.

In 1991, the assessments for fire service were $69,000. In 2012, they are expected to be $242,000. The townships are now paying almost 60 percent of the total assessments, the same percentage of the assessments Le Sueur paid in 1991.

The change is the result of a formula that places a greater burden on agricultural land while residential property is covering less of a percentage of the total assessment.

Belle Plaine Falls to Jordan; Tops Giants In what coach Annette Moylan described as 97-degree heat and 45-mile-per-hour wind gusts, the Belle Plaine and Jordan high school tennis teams battled through it all, and in the end, it was Jordan that was able to sweat out a 6-1 victory last Tuesday at the Belle Plaine Athletic Complex..

The Tigers bounced back on Thursday, topping the Giants for a second time this season by a 4-3 count.

Belle Plaine, 3-2 in the Minnesota River Conference, 6-8 overall, was scheduled to resume MRC play at Sibley East Tuesday after this edition of the Herald went to press.

Jordan swept all four singles

matches in straight sets. Belle Plaine’s lone win came in No. 2 doubles as Sophie Brazil and Jamie Read defeated Katie Olson and Trianna Thong in straight sets The Tigers’ No. 1 doubles team of Allison Stolee and Jane Schneider came back from a 51 deficit in the third set to take a 6-5 lead against Justine Lloyd and Victoria Read. But the Jordan duo came back to force a tiebreaker, which they won.

Tigers 4, LS-H 3 The weather went from desert-like on Tuesday to fall-like on Thursday and the result was also an improvement for the Tigers as they edged the Giants 4-3 in Le Sueur.

Belle Plaine won three of four doubles matches. Included were Stolee and Schneider at No. 1 (6-3, 6-3), Brazil and Read at No. 2 (6-4, 6-0) and Kaisa Hallgren and Meghan Gavin at No. 3 (6-3, 7-5).

“Our doubles teams are really starting to mesh well and they are communicating with each other, which is key to winning in doubles,” Moylan said.

Lindsay Vennie picked up the Tigers’ lone singles victory 6-3, 7-5 triumph over Sammy Kraemer.

Tigers 3, Jordan 0 The Jaguars, who lost much of their firepower from last season to graduation, are in a rebuilding mode and it showed at times last Tuesday night as the Tigers swept them in about an hour.

“I was anxious to see how our team, full of new faces, would handle the atmosphere the crowds create when we play Jordan,” said Tigers coach Cassie Wolpern. “I was proud to see our girls control their nerves and use the gym’s energy to battle through a bumpy match. Getting the win in three was a great accomplishment for us.”

The loss dropped Jordan to 0-4 on the season (now 0-5 following a loss to Le Sueur-Henderson on Thursday).

Jordan Going had a team-high 14 kills for Belle Plaine, followed by Haley Fogarty (10), Mariena Hayden (9), Kirsten Johnson (5), Marykay Nasby (4), Amara Meyer (2) and Ellie Murphy (1). Hayden had three service aces and Fogarty had 13 digs. Johnson and Devin Lehman had 25 and 14 set assists, respectively.

Tiger 3, Watertown-M 0 The Tigers posted another road sweep of a MRC opponent

Jordan middle hitter Courtney Smith tried to hit a shot past Belle Plaine’s Jordan Going and Mariena Hayden last Tuesday night in Jordan.

Thursday but that doesn’t mean there’s not room for plenty of improvement.

“We still aren’t playing to a level that we’d like to be – scoring on W-M’s errors more often than our own success - but we are continuing to work through it and picking up Ws on the way.

We’ve shown spirts of great volleyball and need to keep pushing through our schedule, improving through every practice and match,” said Wolpern, adding that Murphy did a “great job” at middle blocker filling in for Going, who sprained her ankle in the Jordan match.

Football

It was a very balanced scoring attack for Belle Plaine as Meyer, Fogarty and Hayden each had eight kills. Johnson added seven and Nasby five, while Murphy and Emily Vinkemeier both had one. Johnson had three service aces and 18 set assists, both team highs. Fogarty was tops in digs with 16 and Claire Otto contributed 10. Lehman had 14 set assists.

(continued from page 17) for his running skills, took off on a 31-yard TD scamper that finally gave the Royals a twoscore lead (27-13) with 9:45 left in the game. That capped an 89-yard drive that began after Belle Plaine quarterback Jayden Howie was intercepted deep in W-M territory.

The Royals tacked on one more touchdown midway through the final quarter when running back Joe Reinert scored his third TD of the game on a short burst during a drive that started near midfield. His 9-yard TD run late in the third quarter had made it 20-13.

As for the Tigers’ better half (the first two quarters), the game started out with Belle Plaine receiving the opening kickoff only to go three and out. W-M subsequently marched 69 yards, which ended on an 8-yard TD run by running back Max Zitzloff. The extra-point try was no good and it was 6-0 with 9:18 left in the first quarter.

The Tigers took the ensuing kickoff to their own 37, and following a couple of big pass plays, were in business. Running back Dillon Haefner punctuated the drive with a short TD run and Cameron Klehr booted the extra point to give Belle Plaine a 7-6 advantage with 4:52 left in the opening quarter.

The lead wouldn’t last long as the Royals struck back on their next possession. They went 67 yards that ended with a 1-yard TD run by Reinert. A two-point pass play was successful and W-M was back in front 14-7 with 2:03 still left in the first quarter.

What looked like would be a high-scoring game simmered down in the second quarter.

Belle Plaine scored the only points of the quarter when Luke Narveson was the recipient of a

9-yard scoring toss from Howie. The extra-point kick was no good and the Royals still led 14-13 with 2:41 left in the half.

W-M got to inside the Belle Plaine 5 yard line on its next possession but time expired.

“We played very well in the first half. I was happy with our effort and execution on offense,” said Belle Plaine coach Justin Johnston. “Injuries are starting to pile up for us and that is making it hard to be consistent for a full game.”

The Tigers had 241 yards of offense (152 passing and 89 rushing), while the Royals had 381 yards (332 rushing and 51 passing).

Howie completed 12 of 25 passes for 154 yards and one TD. He was intercepted twice.

Eliason had six catches for 78 yards, followed by Narveson with four grabs for 63 yards and one TD. Zack Juaire had two catches for 13 yards.

The Tigers’ top rusher was Haefner with 12 carries for 52 yards and one TD. Jordan Johnson, Juaire, Eliason and Howie combined to carry 16 times for 37 yards.

Reinert led the ground-pounding Royals with 19 carries, good for 116 yards and three TDs. Tschida kept 11 times for 93 yards. Zitzloff had 10 carries for 88 yards.

Defensively, the Tigers were led by Brandon Boateng with eight tackles, followed by Gavin Dauwalter (6), Ben Stier (5), Colton Hentges (4), Nathan Phillips (4) and Luke Dandurand (3). Having two tackles apiece were Joe Hankins, Dustin Liestico, Aiden Winterfeldt, Blayne Prochaska and Klehr.

Up next for the Tigers is Sibley East, which is 1-1 in

the conference, 2-1 overall.

The game will be played at the Belle Plaine Athletic Complex, which is probably a good thing for the Tigers. The Wolverines have been strong at home so far this year, routing Gibbon-Fairfax-Winthrop 34-8 in week one and Jordan 56-7 this past Friday. Sandwiched between those two wins was a 43-12 road loss at Mayer Lutheran on Sept. 7.

Against Jordan, Sibley East built a 35-0 halftime lead, which included a touchdown run by Erik Danielson, who then returned an interception for a score that made it 14-0 early on. Quarterback Brody Rodning connected with tight end Tyler Bates on two scoring pass plays as the Wolverines scored on and on.

A victory over Sibley East could go a long way toward turning the still young season around for Belle Plaine.

“Our kids are fighters and we are looking forward to the challenge of Sibley East this week,” Johnston said. “We are a young football team and we need to learn how to win and finish games.”

Hibernians Have Rings for Scholarships Minnesota’s Shamrock Division #1 of Le Sueur County was looking for ideas to raise funds for their dwindling scholarship fund, which is given annually to deserving high school seniors about to enter college.

Founding member and Charter President George P. Luskey came up with an idea that would not only instill pride in the recipients of future scholarships, but also instill pride in Hibernians and their divisions from coast to coast.

Division #1 has joined forces with the world famous ringmaker Jostens Co. from Minnesota to develop an AOH ring with a portion of the sale going to the division’s scholarship fund.

For those who attended this year’s national convention at Turning Stone Resort and Casino, you perhaps had the opportunity to stop by the Jostens table at the convention and visit with Jostens representative Ray Lorenz and see the beautiful AOH rings available for purchase.
