NUMBER 33

The Bridge to Blakeley Workers from S.M. Hentges & Sons of Jordan continued work this week on repairing a deficient old bridge along Scott County Road 6 (also known as the Blakeley road). The project will be completed in October. County and state funding are paying for the $547,607 project.

Menden Wants Vote on Levy Hike; Wagner Says Plan ‘ Not Realistic’

Wayde Welter of Carver won the $2,000 first-place prize for catching this 42-pound, 10-ounce flathead Saturday.

Record Number of Fishermen Turnout for River Fishin’ Contest by Dan Ruud A record 244 anglers took part in this year’s Belle Plaine River Fishin’ Contest, the top dog of that group being Wayde Welter of Carver with a 42-pound, 10ounce flathead catfish. The catch netted Welter the $2,000 first-place prize, which was also a contest record. Nev-

er before in the contest’s 37year history was the grand prize more than $1,000, but a special sponsorship and donation by Matt Saxe Chervolet of Belle Plaine made the doubling of the grand prize money possible. Welter said he plans to give half of his prize money to fish-

Primary Election Results Online Lack of City Races Kept Voter Turnout Low in B.P. Tuesday Morning Approximately 120 people had cast their primary election ballot at the Belle Plaine Government Center just prior to the noon hour on Tuesday. There were no primary races for Belle Plaine city offices but Belle Plaine residents were able to cast ballots for other races, most locally Scott County Commissioner District 1 and Senate District 20. Squaring off for the Scott County Commissioner District 1 seat were incumbent Joe Wagner of Sand Creek Town-

ship, 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 were vying to be the Republican candidate in the fall general election. The winner will square off against Kevin Dahle of Northfield. For primary election results, you can visit www.belleplaineherald.com or the Herald’s Facebook page.

ing buddy Steve Martin of Farmington, who netted the fish and got it into the boat for Welter. Using a sucker minnow for bait, Welter caught his $2,000 prize at about 8 a.m. Saturday near Henderson in about 9 feet of water. He said it’s the biggest fish he’s ever caught. “I caught some 38s (pounders) in my life but this is the biggest to date,” said Welter, who was in a rush to return the fish to the river. “We’re taking him to Belle Plaine. He’s not going back to Henderson. We don’t want him dying,” Welter said. Welter’s fish was almost 9 pounds heavier than last year’s grand flathead, which was caught by Ed Borak (33 pounds, 14 ounces). In fact, the top four flatheads caught this year all exceeded last year’s winner. Perry Miller of Corcoran wasn’t far behind Welter as he reeled in a 40pound, 7-ouncer at about 4:30 a.m. Saturday in Carver. That

Scott County commissioners are considering a half-percent increase in the 2013 property tax levy. Commissioner David Menden of Shakopee says voters, not the board, should decide if the increase is approved. “It’s a nice idea, but it’s not realistic,” said Commissioner Joe Wagner of Sand Creek Township, Belle Plaine’s representative on the county board. Menden called for the referendum at the board’s Aug. 7 meeting. Tuesday (Aug. 14), Administrator Gary Shelton noted a memo from the county attorney’s office indicating there is nothing in state statute supporting putting a county levy referendum to the citizenry. He said case law opposes the idea. The county is pitching the proposed increase with the expectation about three-fourths of property owners would see a decrease in their county property taxes, thanks to new construction. Menden believes the half-percent increase would drive taxes up. County Administrator Gary Shelton disagrees. The county says Scott County taxpayers will cumulatively pay almost $352,500 less next year. Changes in state aid should hold the increase from $60.5 million to $60.8 million. About 26 percent of the property owners would see an annual increase in county property taxes of $25 or more under a plan presented to the commissioners during a recent non-

televised workshop. “Everybody would vote against it,” he said. With uncertain levels of state aid, the county will eventually have to increase its income. “Eventually, they’ll call 911 until nobody shows up.” The Scott County Attorney’s Office is researching if there

is still time to include the levy question on the ballot. Wagner, who is in a heated re-election battle is with Jerry Kucera of Sand Creek Township and LuAnne Lemke of Louisville Township, is opposing, like his opponents, the

Township Board to Vote on Road Issue Thursday The Belle Plaine Township Board is scheduled to hold a special meeting 6:30 p.m. this Thursday at its town hall to take action on an apparent compromise with the Belle Plaine City Council to resolve the Belle Plaine Trail issue. The city of Belle Plaine and representatives of Belle Plaine Township have seemingly ironed out an agreement for the long-term fix of the road following months of debate 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. Last Monday, the council voted 5-1 to approve a proposed agreement that would result in the entire road being paved this year. The agreement won’t become official until the Belle Plaine Township Board formally approves it. Several township representatives were in attendance last Monday, including Treasurer Kevin Slack. He told the council the township board will likely call a special meeting as soon as possible (which it since has) to put its stamp of approval on the agreement rather than wait until its next regular board meeting in September. The substantive points of the

agreement are: – 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. Chard Tiling and Excavating of Belle Plaine was awarded the contract for the project in June at a bid of $128,113.60.

The Belle Plaine High School class of 2010 is establishing a Dollars for Scholars scholarship in memory of David Keup, who died unexpectedly last week. The class plans on giving out this scholarship every year to “a Belle Plaine graduate who demonstrates some of the same great qualities that David had.” In order to get this scholar-

ship started, the class is asking friends, family and classmates of David to help by donating money for this scholarship. All donations can be sent to “David Keup Memorial” at the State Bank of Belle Plaine.

Honoring the Church of St. Joe Petronella Schmitt (left) and Viola Hennes, both of Jordan, were among the many people who attended the dedication of the Church of St. Joseph on the Pioneer Power Show Grounds in Le Sueur County Saturday afternoon. After acquiring the church from the Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis, the Catholic church was moved from Lexington Township to the show grounds in Sharon Township last summer. It can’t be used for Masses. The program included history of the church, which was founded in 1902 by settlers from Eastern Europe.

National Night Out Belle Plaine Police Chief Tom Stolee tended to the grill Tuesday at the annual National Night Out festivities at Heritage Square Park. Hundreds attended the event, which is intended to help build positive relationships between citizens and police and within neighborhoods. A similar but smaller event was held at First Presbyterian Church on West Main Street.

Holli and Tim Berge will host a grand opening for their Little Free Library at 224 South Walnut Street this Saturday from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Beverages and cookies will be provided.

Belle Plaine Couple Puts Dead Tree to Literary Use by Dan Ruud The half-century-year-old maple tree in Tim and Holli Berge’s front lawn in Belle Plaine was dying and they didn’t like the thought of losing it entirely. They couldn’t stop the tree from dying but they were able to keep it from becoming sawdust. Today, the tree still stands, more noticeable than ever. It will be the center of attention at a special “little” grand opening this Saturday at the Berge’s home at 224 South Walnut Street, where Belle Plaine’s first “free” Little Library will open and stay open 24/7. Beverages and cookies will be provided during the event, which will take place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Starting Saturday, the Berges said children from throughout Belle Plaine can stop by and take a book free of charge (a few already have). There will be no one staffing the Little Library day or night. Users are also encouraged to drop off books from time to time as a way to recycle the supply. “I was watching the news one night and I saw where these people (throughout the Twin Cities) were building free minilibraries and I thought that would be a good way to keep our tree,” Holli said. The tree was planted in 1960 by Jeanette and the late August “Augie” Tolzmann. Holli said Jeanette, who currently lives next door to the Berges, was also sad to see the tree’s demise in recent years, and was happy

that the tree will continue to stand and serve a purpose. The Berges said some of their fondest memories of the tree come from watching their children play in it. The kids (Amanda, Zachary and Emma) are all grown now. “I remember Zach would climb up into that tree and you wouldn’t be able to see him,” Tim recalled. “I’d be mowing the lawn or something and he’d throw sticks at me and you couldn’t see him up there, but you knew he was.” According to littlefreelibrary. org, the mission of such libraries is: – To promote literacy and the love of reading by building free book exchanges worldwide. – To build a sense of community as we share skills, creativity and wisdom across generations. – To build more than 2,510 li-

braries around the world - more than Andrew Carnegie! The Berge’s Little Library is about the size of a standard kitchen cabinet (it opens and closes the same way, too) and can hold some 100 books of various sizes. “I’m excited. A lot of kids have been asking me when it (the Little Library) is going to open,” Holli said. Tim built the Little Library with help from friends and neighbors, including Mike Reiter, who assisted with the project. Mike and his wife, Amber, also donated books to the cause, as did others. Patrick Duffy donated the brick for the small patio in front of the Little Library. Bob Dahlke, a local tree removal/trimming specialist, pro-

Farmers Market Corner The Belle Plaine Farmers Market is on the move. Road construction has started by the park so we are temporarily moving to Union Square Park, also known as the BBQ Days park, located behind the high school at 220 South Market Street. Last week brought beautiful weather and many people to the market. Jennifer created a lot of excitement as she returned with fresh egg rolls and wantons. The lines were steady with many satisfied customers. Cucumbers are in abundance now. They have many uses other than pickles. They can replace coffee as a great pick-meup that will last for hours. If your bathroom mirror fogs, rub it with a cucumber slice, eliminating the fog and creating a nice fragrance. A few slices in a pie tin placed strategically throughout your garden may

prevent grubs and slugs from ruining your planting beds. There are many more uses for cucumbers, Google it and see. The first Wednesday of September will be a salsa contest. Bring a jar of your best offering to the market. Customers will be able to sample and vote on their favorite. A winner will be announced around 6 p.m. The winner will be awarded fabulous prizes, including bragging rights and a mention right here in the Herald. 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.

Back in the July 4, 2012 edition of this column, I mentioned the passing of Norah Ephron. Norah Ephron was a novelist, screenwriter and movie director. In doing further reading, I saw a reference to her movie called “You’ve Got Mail” as a modernized rewrite of an older movie called “The Shop Around the Corner”. That was the name of Kathleen Kelly’s (Meg Ryan’s character) book store in the modern movie. I was interested and I did some research. Scott County does have a copy of “The Shop Around the Corner”. It is on VHS tape. If you still have a dusty old VCR that still works, I’d recommend this movie. I found a copy of the DVD on eBay. It is a delightful movie with an incredibly young and handsome Jimmy Stewart. After watching this movie, we had to re-watch the Norah Ephron version. It was interesting to see how she kept true to the basic story line while moving the story to a different country, a different city and decades ahead. In watching “You’ve Got Mail” one of the new scenes struck me. Kathleen Kelly is sitting in the children’s book department at her competitor’s store after closing up her store. A customer asks about a series of books and the store attendant has no knowledge of the books. Kathleen Kelly volunteers the information. The books were special favorites of hers as a child. It was a powerful and touching scene. This started me thinking. Does your family have a book that is special? Do you have a book that is special to you personally? I think that everybody should. If your kids do not, you may want to encourage them to try a wider range of reading. For my kids collectively, the book “Go Dog. Go!” by Philip Eastman (1961) was a huge favorite. We’d read it to them at my parent’s house and when we would read it, my dad, would listen along and laugh at times. To this day, when we read “Go Dog. Go!” to my grandkid’s, I still hear my dad in the background. My husbands favorite childhood book is “Homer Price” by Robert McCloskey (1943). His childhood neighborhood friends, Ralph and Steve, loved the book and convinced him to read it. To this day, when he sees the book, he remembers the great times he had with his friends, reading the book and talking about it with them. If you or your family have a special book that means something extra to you, I would love to hear about the book and the reason that you find it to be special. The summer reading program has officially ended. There are still prizes to be picked up. Encourage your young readers to finish reading their books even though the program has ended for this year. 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 “The Burying Place” by Brian Freeman. If you would like to join the club, stop at the library to get a copy of the book. Meeting is on August 23.

Monday morning, Belle Plaine High School freshmen were the first to take the computerized testing to establish a baseline for players recovering from concussions.

Concussion Test Part of First Day for BPHS Football Team

Football practice began Monday for about 90 players. Before Belle Plaine High School football players sustained or delivered the first hit, they took their first test of the season. This fall, players in grades 9-12 took a computerized test to establish a measurable set of baseline brain functions – speed, reaction time and memory -- in case they suffer a concussion during the coming season. Basketball players and wrestlers will be tested before the winter season begins, said Mindy Sparby, Belle Plaine High School’s activities director. If a student-athlete in football, basketball or wrestling suffers a suspected concussion, they will not be allowed to resume participation in their respective sport until meeting the baseline data established on the test and are symptom-free at play and at rest, said Kim Perkert, a certified athletic trainer with Mayo Clinic Health SystemsNew Prague (formerly Queen of Peace Hospital). The trainer service serves student-athletes at Belle Plaine, New Prague and Tri-City United high schools. The testing is for all the football, basketball players and wrestlers. Next year, it will be given to incoming freshmen and new students. “This is to keep our studentathletes safe,” Sparby said. “It’s a tool to keep them safe before they return to the field of play.” Under existing Minnesota State High School League guidelines, when a certified athletic trainer determines a

student is demonstrating symptoms of a concussion, the student must see a doctor before being allowed to return to practice. The physician, Sparby said, will determine when the student can return to practice. The baseline test will help the physician determine if the student was concussed. Last year, two BPHS football players suffered concussions, Sparby said. On a typical year, as many as 10 BPHS athletes in the three sports could endure a concussion, Perkert said. Symptoms a coach may observe include a dazed/stunned appearance, confusion about an assignment or position, forgetfulness, uncertain of the game, opponent or score, clumsy movement, slow to answer questions or even a brief loss of consciousness. A concussed athlete may report headache or pressure in the head, nausea, loss of balance or dizziness, double or blurry vision, sensitivity to noise or light or a sluggish, foggy or groggy feeling. Previously, a concussed student was required to sit out a predetermined amount of time. Today, trainers recognize each case being different, especially if a student has suffered previous concussions, Perkert said. Officials taking a more cautious approach, especially as athletes are becoming bigger, stronger and faster than before. “I always tell kids, you have one brain and it’s got to last you the rest of your life,” Perkert said. “Concussions are becoming more common and we have a better understanding of them.

---- Quality Cuts ----

Better Value

Break out of the kitchen and gather round the grill.

Everybody’s becoming a little more cautious.” Dick’s Sporting Goods is paying for this year’s baseline tests. The sporting goods retailer is donating $500 for 300 tests and follow-up care. Sparby expects Mayo Health Systems will pay for the tests next year. Eventually, the school district may have to consider adding all or part of the costs of the tests to its fees or its activities budget. “We may have to and we will cross that bridge when we come to it,” she said.

Community Youth Fair Aug. 23 The Belle Plaine Community Youth Fair, presented by Belle Plaine Community Education, will take place Thursday, Aug. 23 from 6:30-8:30 p.m. at Oak Crest Elementary School. The event, which will feature over 15 organization booths, carnival games, interactive booths and fun demonstrations, will allow parents to learn how their children can get involved in sports, arts and other afterschool programs in the Belle Plaine community.

Thirty Years Ago This Week

DFLer Get-Together Area DFLers got together for food and speeches at a hog roast held at the Leo and Marion Fogarty farm in Belle Plaine on Aug. 14, 1982. About 700 people attended the rally, including, from left, Marion Fogarty, Leo Fogarty, Senate candidate Mark Dayton, gubernatorial candidate Warren Spannaus and state auditor candidate Paul Wellstone. There are 35,000 women abused in the state of Minnesota each year (through 1982), one woman being abused every 18 seconds. Those kinds of statistics and the feeling that there was a need to stop such abuse in and around Belle Plaine was the topic of conversation at the Scott-Carver Task Force on Battered Women organizational meeting that Tuesday night at the Belle Plaine Civic Center. The meeting, headed by Marion Fogarty of Belle Plaine and Bernice Sisson of the Region 11 consortium on battered women, centered on what could be done in the Belle Plaine area to help stop abuse and the battered women syndrome. About 30 local and county officials attended, including Belle Plaine Mayor Fran Schuman, Councilman Ed Willson, Police Chief Rod Peddycoart, Scott County Attorney Kathleen Morris, Scott County Commissioner Bill Koniarski and members of the legal and educational community. The rain that fell that Tuesday morning (.08 inch) wasn’t enough to really help the already hurting corn crop in this area. Meanwhile, the sprinkling ban continued in Belle Plaine as repairs to the city’s second pump had not yet been finished. Vacation would soon be over as Belle Plaine public schools would begin the 1982-83 school year on Aug. 30. Dr. Ian Swatez, optometrist in Belle Plaine since 1976, announced that his practice had been assumed by Dr. Jeffrey McGuire, formerly of Hugo. Swatez decided to leave the practice and pursue a medical degree in Minneapolis. There was something new at the Hooper-Bowler-Hillstrom

Historical House in Belle Plaine thanks to a gift and some donated time. The old windmill on the south lawn of the house finally had a wheel and was blowing in the wind. According to J.C. Stiles of the Belle Plaine Historical Society, the shaft on the windmill had been bent and needed to be replaced, and there was no wheel. The wheel was a gift from Bill Chard and had been stored at Mueller and Otto’s for five years. It originally came off the windmill at the old O’Brien farm and Ed Haas and Joe Gregory donated about five days of their own time to replace some gears and fix the shaft so the windmill could turn.

60 Years Ago (1952)

Gene O’Brien’s two home runs and Norb Schmitt’s double with the bases loaded proved too much punch for Jiggs Westergaard and his Saints in the first game of a best-of-five final playoff series. The 7-3 win was the first time all year that the Tigers came out on top in a clash with St. Peter. Bob Stradcutter of our local post office was a delegate to the 27th National Federation of Post Office Clerks Convention held in St. Paul. Little Pat Spellacy, son of Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Spellacy, disappeared one Friday afternoon. After much worry and a heavy search, Pat was found sitting contentedly in a box of sweet corn in the back of a truck his father had hauled to Montgomery. State Fair trip winners from Belle Plaine were Jackie-Lou Marvin Mueller, Joleen Arndt and Keiran O’Brien. One of the severest wind-

storms of the year hit this section, bringing with it heavy rainfall. About 50 feet of fence on the east side of the ball park was torn off and lifted to near the roadway, and half of the big elm in front of the house occupied by Jack Teschendorf stretched across the street pavement. The program styled Dairy Days drew an attendance that packed the seating capacity of the park, filled the parking block and adjacent streets. It was a fine turnout with fine weather prevailing. Top prize winners in the drawing were Diane Petter, Victor Krumrey and Mrs. Henry Brandt. Emil Freter died at his home in the borough at the age of 73. Clara Irwin, formerly of Belle Plaine, and Dr. Anthony J. Matter of St. Cloud, were married in the Crosier Chapel in Onamia. Frank Dowd, well-remembered former resident and auctioneer in years past, died at the rest home in Lester Prairie. He was 83 years old. Harold J. Moriarty, son of the M.C. Moriartys, was the new executive secretary of the St. Paul Home Builders Association. Friends and relatives helped Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Hespenheide celebrate their 15th wedding anniversary. Miss Merle C. Sullivan, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Parnell Sullivan of St. Paul, became the bride of George A. Mahowald of New Market. At St. Paul’s Lutheran Church in Jordan took place the marriage of Miss Shirley Jane, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Roland Hessing of St. Lawrence Township, to Gordon L. Pierce of Good Thunder. Darlene Marie Prom, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Nick Prom of St. Peter, became the bride of Vernon Fredrick Dorn, son of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Dorn of Nicollet.

Both the West Union and Lanesburg bands were furnishing concerts in Belle Plaine that summer. George Mullen, former resident of Assumption, died at his home in Green Isle at the age of 64. A crowd estimated at 800 was at the Belle Plaine creamery picnic held at the M.C. Moriarty grove a mile east of town, made up of creamery patrons and their families and businessmen. In the baseball game, the farmers beat the businessmen 19-5. Joe Widmer tore down the old front of his theater building and was erecting a new brick front with a canopied entrance. After six months spent in Oregon and Washington, Mr. and Mrs. W.A. Bieder and children returned home. Mrs. Ann Fisher died at the home of her granddaughter, Mrs. Frank Oster, at the age of 87. She had been a resident of Belle Plaine for 50 years. To look into the prospect of new jobs at the new steel plant in Duluth, a group of boys accepted the offer of the company of free railroad fare to look over the place. Those who went were Erwin Schomburg, Walter Druke, Harry Kirchoff, Ray Grosser, Chris Haas, Tim Gannon, Fred Mueller and Ray Meyer. Mrs. James Walsh died at the hospital in St. Paul and her remains were brought to her native parish of St. John’s for burial. Ten years previous to her death, the family had given up farming here and moved to St. Paul. At East Union Church took place the marriage of Miss Esther Johnson to Edgar Olander. The attendants were Art Olander and Gustaf Johnson. Having dumped its all-salaried team, local ball fans started organization of an all-home team. John M. Bohnsack, 80, prominent farmer, died and the funeral was held from the church in Lanesburg. The famous Dan Patch barn at Savage burned to the ground. It was built by M.W. Savage, owner of the famous pacer, in 1904, and with the enclosed track, the only one in the world, represented an investment of a half-million. The great horse, Dan Patch, died in the barn in 1916.

120 Years Ago (1892)

Chris Schmitt, Joe Gasta and Will Krenz gave up their jobs here to see what California offered in the way of fortune. The new Australian election ballot was being introduced. Instructions were printed on the back in six languages. Mrs. Sophia Bossling deeded to the Lutheran Synod all of block 43 on the south side of East Main Street and a sum of money towards erection of an orphan asylum. Our sportsmen moved over to Washington Lake for opening of duck season. Three teams were required to carry the para90 Years Ago phernalia and establish two (1922) camps. Some of the corn was being cut Tom Milton said the old feed because much of that season’s mill wouldn’t do for a cream crop was considered beyond station and the company would saving due to a lack of rain. erect its own plant near the railroad right-of-way.

Scott County Board Says Gary Shelton ‘Exceeds’ Expectations Marschall, Ulrich Blast Wagner, Menden by John Mueller The Scott County Board approved County Administrator Gary Shelton’s 2012 performance review Tuesday, deeming his performance as “exceeds expectations. The review passed by a 3-2 vote. Commissioners Joe Wagner of Sand Creek Township, Belle Plaine’s representative on the board, and David Menden of Shakopee voted against the approval. Menden abstained from the review but voted against its approval because Shelton earned a lump sum payment of $653 under the provisions of the non-union pay-for-performance program. Commissioners Barbara Marschall of Prior Lake and Tom Wolf of Credit River said Shelton’s performance exceeded expectations in most of the performance categories. Commissioner Jon Ulrich of Savage rated Shelton’s performance as “outstanding.” Menden said he didn’t trust Shelton and declined to partici-

pate in Shelton’s performance for 2012. Wagner gave Shelton the lowest grades possible but offered no justification for the ratings. Wagner later stated he, like Menden, doesn’t trust Shelton. Earlier this year, Wagner and Menden voted to terminate Shelton from his position as county administrator. They were on the short end of a 3-2 vote. The performance review took place behind closed doors Aug. 8. It led to continuing airing of dirty laundry and infighting between board members. Marschall blasted Wagner for working on campaign material during the review and offering no suggestions on how Shelton could improve his performance. Marschall called Wagner’s behavior “unprofessional” and “irresponsible.” Ulrich criticized Menden for bringing up issues he’s had with Shelton that date back 20 years.

Union Hill on Sunday. The Polka Masses were so beautiful, I needed to restrain myself from “jiving� to the music. From the 60 years ago column in the Belle Plaine Herald: It states that Gilbert Witt passed away suddenly at age 40. Humor Corner: The elderly Irish gentleman went on his daily visit to the local bar, where he always ordered three shots. The bartender asked him if others were joining him. “Oh no,’ he said. “Two shots are for me two brothers back in Ireland who asked me to always drink one for them when I came here.� This went on for a long time. One day, he ordered only two shots. The bartender was concerned. “Did one of your brothers die?� he asked. “Oh, no,� said the Irishman. “I quit drinking.�

Library (continued from page 2) vided the Berges with a 3-foot (round) wooden base for the Little Library that was cut from a large cottonwood log. The Berges recently planted trumpet vines at the base of the tree, which eventually will grow upward and wrap the trunk and branches with foliage and orange flowers. Holli said she’s dedicating her Little Library to Shel Silverstein, author of the children’s book “The Giving Tree.� “That was one of my favorite books growing up and that’s what I think of now when I look at our tree,� Holli said. And to top it all off, a dead tree is getting a new lease on life – books, children, orange flowers and all. How to Establish Your Little Library The Little Free Library is a nonprofit organization that encourages people to adopt a Little Library and distribute books to local residents. Anyone interested in providing a Little Library to its residents may either build or order their own library gallery and register the library’s new location online to become an official Little Library site.

The earlier you start, the better - and the more you contribute to a college saving account early, the more compounding you can take advantage of to help build college saving. Education preparation can never start “too early�. The key is to contribute early and often to your college savings account. You’ll need to, for your child’s sake. Historically, college tuition has increased at about twice the rate of inflation - about 8% per year on average. That means the cost of college doubles every nine years. Are you saving for college with that reality in mind? Remember to make regular contributions to your child’s college savings account. A college savings account is truly an investment in your child’s future, and really, what investment could be more important?

Le Sueur To Hold Dedication Sunday For The Volunteers Who Helped Defend New Ulm in 1862 The Dakota War of 1862 had a great impact on Minnesota River towns. Belle Plaine and Le Sueur were not directly attacked but both towns were on the fringe of the hostilities and sent volunteers to help put down the violence. This Sunday Le Sueur is dedicating a marker placed in Louise Park honoring the Le Sueur militia volunteers named the Le Sueur Tigers who went to help defend New Ulm. The Le Sueur Tigers consisted of two companies of about 150. On Aug. 19, 1862, word reached Le Sueur that the Dakota Indians had attacked settlers living near New Ulm the previous day and that they now threatened the town. Volunteers in Le Sueur quickly assembled into two companies named the Le Sueur Tigers # 1 and 2. The first company left for New Ulm that day and the second left the following day. The Tigers had about 30 rifles among them and the rest were armed with shotguns.

CUSTOMER: REP ID:

The Dakota made their major attack on New Ulm on Aug. 23 and the Tigers were in the middle of the battle. Some fought from the Roebbecke Mill, a tall, strongly built structure, while others fought elsewhere outside the barricades, keeping the Dakota at bay. It was a hotly-contested fight with the outcome hanging in the balance. The defenders of the town did manage to prevail, but the cost was high with about 30 killed. Six of the Le Sueur Tigers were killed including three Tyron Township Irish immigrants William Luskey and his neighbors Matthew Ahem and William Maloney, the three men left behind their wives and a total of 13 young children, also killed were Monro Edwards, Washington Kulp and Luke Smith. New Ulm was evacuated on Aug. 25 and the Tigers were mustered out on Aug. 27. Most of the bodies of the Tigers who were killed were brought back to Le Sueur later that fall, with some buried in St. Anne’s Cath-

Superintendent’s Update

By Dr. Kelly Smith

As we get closer to the start of the new school year, I thought it might be good to review our school district’s new mission statement, our core values statements and our vision for the future. The school board approved these items this spring following a strategic planning process with school board members and administrators that spanned several months. Our mission statement is short and succinct – “Expecting Excellence from Everyone, Every Day!â€? Our expectation of excellence is not isolated to our students, but also from our school district staff, parents and community. We can only achieve excellence when everyone involved in the educational process gives their best effort each and every day. Our core values are our beliefs that drive our words and our actions. Our core values may be remembered through the acronym LEARN. The core values are: LEARNERS FIRST – student’s diversity and needs drive decisions & actions EXCELLENCE – high expectations for all and intentional innovative effort for continuous improvement ACCOUNTABILITY – ownership of our individual and collective actions and decisions while being responsive to results RESPECT – display pride for self and others in the schools and community through thoughts and actions NURTURE – safe and supportive learning environment focused on individual needs Our vision for what we strive to create by 2016 is as follows: Our district, working in partnership with all families and the community, is a learning organization of engaged, motivated and high achieving lifelong learners who experience daily our: Academic Excellence through ¡ personalized learning and differentiated programming ¡ focus from teaching to learning ¡ alignment of rigorous, guaranteed and viable curriculum Community Culture of Engagement through ¡ recognizing who we are and embracing who we may become ¡ collaboration and communication Sustainability for Excellence and Engagement through ¡ effective management of human, financial and physical resources ¡ innovative and integrated use of technology I am excited about the upcoming school year. We have great staff, students, parents and a strong, supportive community here in Belle Plaine. Together, these are the ingredients for a school system that produces excellence in all we do! As always, if you have any questions about school matters, please feel free to call me at 8732400 or check our website at www.belleplaine.k12.mn.us. Go Tigers!

’55 Buick Century. Cars shows are becoming more popular in area communities, they say. The shows draw young adults who don’t see the types of cars their parents owned anywhere but in car shows. They’d prefer to park along Meridian Street. The traffic volume on East Main Street makes stopping cars to back in a challenge. They’d like to see more enthusiasts bring their classics downtown. Ideally, they’d like to see the Belle Plaine shows expand to the level of participation Henderson enjoys Tuesday evenings. The shows are a boon to downtown business. “They get 200 cars,” Fahey said. His car was selected the “Car of the Night” the previous Tuesday in Henderson. If you want to pull up a chair or find a comfortable sidewalk flowerpot to sit on and talk 1970s Mopar muscle cars, the group is all ears. Ask them about their cars. They’ve all got a yarn to spin.

fish earned Miller $500. The third-place prize ($250) went to Travis Poehler of Norwood Young America (37 pounds, 6-ounces), while fourth place ($125) went to Corey Mettler of Nicollet with a 35pound, 13-ouncer. A total of $4,000 in cash and merchandise certificates was awarded to anglers in various categories, including the largest carp ($200), a 12-pound, 4ouncer caught by Ted Thomason of Belle Plaine. The largest fish that was not a flathead ($50) was caught by Jeff Eddleston of Jordan. It was a 12-pound, 4-ounce channel cat. The contest record flathead (51 pounds, 12 ounces) was caught by Tony Bentz of Belle Plaine in 2003. The state record for a flathead is a 70-pounder caught in the St. Croix River (Washington County) in 1970. The world record is a 123-pounder caught in Elk City Reservoir, Kan., in 1998. Following Saturday’s weighin deadline came the traditional keg throwing and tobacco spitting contests. The men’s top keg heaver was Tyler Nyberg of Belle Plaine. The best throw by a woman was turned in by Kari Hodges of Arlington. Jake Bartlett of Cologne won the tobacco spitting contest. Partial proceeds from the Minnesota River Fishin’ Contest go to Belle Plaine area youth outdoor training programs.

Future Firefighters? Jackson Stomer and his buddy Cody Corbitt (right) were among dozens of children who tried on firefighter turnout gear on the run during a race at National Night Out last Tuesday at Heritage Square Park. The two boys, ages 10 and 9, respectively, learned the adults make it look easy.

Seeking Public’s Help, Area Man Feeling Kicked When He’s Down An area man is looking for help from anybody who has seen or heard of his stolen fish house and offering a $500 reward for information leading to its recovery and the conviction of the thief(ves). The fish house was taken from Kocina’s business in New Prague – Tri-County Beverage – last Tuesday (Aug. 7) while Ron and Kathy (Meger) Kocina were in Rochester visiting their hospitalized son, Tom, 31. He was severely injured in a motorcycle crash just before 1 a.m. Tuesday (Aug. 7) south of Montgomery. He was airlifted to St. Mary’s Hospital in Rochester and remains hospitalized

with severe head injuries and several broken bones, Ron said. “The pain of what happened to Tom is very hard to deal with but the person who stole the fish house infuriates us,” Kocina said. Kocina sold a portion of his business to spend more time with his 10 grandchildren, three of which are Tom’s children. Ron Kocina bought the fish house as a place to spend time with them If you’ve seen the stolen fish house or have information about it, call the Scott County Sheriff’s Office at (952) 4968080.

by Brad Lawson The Belle Plaine Tigers earned the No. 2 seed in Region 6C as they won one and lost one in the seeding games this past week.

Belle Plaine is scheduled to begin the regular season with a meet at Mankato East on Tuesday, Aug. 28. Steve Schroeder returns as the head coach of both the boys’ and girls’ teams this year.

The Tigers are scheduled to open the regular season at Minnesota River Conference rival Le Sueur-Henderson on Tuesday, Aug. 28. Their first home date is set for Tuesday, Sept. 4 against Mankato East.

Sunday (Aug. 26) at 5:30 p.m. at Joe Faber Field. If you would like to support the other two River Valley League ‘C’ teams at state, you can see Chanhassen on Saturday at 11 a.m. against either Blue Earth or Cannon Falls. But you will have to wait another week to see the Jordan Brewers as they received a first-round bye and won’t play until Saturday, Aug. 25 at 11 a.m. at Joe Faber Field against the winner of Lastrup and the two seed out of Region 1. The other area teams that qualified for the tournament (see accompanying bracket) include Union Hill, Green Isle Waconia, Prior Lake, Young America, Waterville and Shakopee. Tigers 11, Chanhassen 1 The Tigers put runs on the board right away as the first six batters got on base and five of them scored. The Tigers added four more runs in the second to put the game out of reach for the hometown Redbirds. Shawn “Weird-Hot” Larson led the Tiger charge with a perfect 4-for-4 night, although according to @bphof21, the four

hits totaled a distance of 230 feet. Larson looked like he was on the links with his pitching wedge, landing the ball as close as he could to the right field line for his first two hits. Brad Lawson took the bump for the Tigers and threw a complete game, giving up one run on six hits while walking three. Jordan 7, Tigers 3 The Tigers made the trip up 169 to the Mini-Met for a chance at winning Region 6C and a first-round bye in the state tournament. However, the Tiger defense was not on the top of its game and gave up multiple unearned runs throughout the contest. Tiger pitcher Shane Hofmann did not receive the run support or the defense Lawson received the night before. The Tigers committed three errors. Tiger hitting was not as hot as it was the previous game either, but they got hits when they needed them and closed the gap in the sixth inning to a one-run game. However, the following inning the Tiger defense allowed two runs and then the Brewers added another in the seventh.
