Culture, Sights, Music Education: Band Trip to NYC had It All

The five days Belle Plaine Junior-Senior High students spent on the band trip offered a memorable mix of music education, sight-seeing and culture unlike any trip they might have enjoyed during spring break.

The trip gave 57 Belle Plaine students the opportunity to learn from university professors and professionals in the music industry along with seeing the city’s culture and historic landmarks from March 22-25.

“In New York, it’s all about the culture,” said Jeanine Kruschke, Belle Plaine’s junior-senior high band director.

“It’s such a melting pot of different cultures, different walks of life. You think Minneapolis is a big city and then you go to

New York.”

The Belle Plaine students spent Sunday morning in a Broadway classroom. The workshop included the opportunity to learn from Ben Cohn, an associate director of the Broadway play, “Wicked.” The group worked with Cohn on a prepared piece.

Cohn helped them with a variety of performance techniques.

The students also worked with Stephen Tewksbury, whose Broadway theater credits include roles in “Kinky Boots,” “The Phantom of the Opera” and “Les Miserables.” The Belle Plaine band members played a piece, again learning techniques for improving their skills.

The session also included a

Scott SWCD Supervisors Doug Schoecker, Rob Casey, Chair Jim Fitzsimmons and Linda Brown discussed conservation-related legislation and issues with Rep. Kelby Woodard, (second from right) at one of five stops during Legislative Day at the Capitol.

SWCD Supervisors Meet With Legislators Scott Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) Supervisors Rob Casey and Jim Fitzsimmons of Prior Lake, Doug Schoenecker of New Prague and Linda Brown of Elko New Market recently attended a legislative briefing and meetings at the State Capitol in St. Paul to discuss important state-wide conservation efforts.

They joined a group of other officials from the state’s SWCDs who met in St. Paul to gather support for conservation districts’ programs and issues. “It is important for us to get the conservation message out to our elected officials in St. Paul,� said Fitzsimmons, chairman of the Scott SWCD Board. “The 2014 Legislative Ses-

sion is critical to the future of conservation programs in the state.� “We enjoyed the interaction and being able to talk face-toface with our elected officials about issues affecting conservation efforts in Scott County,� said Schoenecker, one of the newest members of the Scott SWCD Board of Supervisors. “And we wanted to make sure when our legislators are debating conservation-related legislation down the road, they know they can contact us to give them background and insight from a ‘boots on the ground’ perspective.�

Sibley County May Give Voters Say on Elected Recorder This Fall

Sibley County commissioners are again deciding if an elected position should become an appointed one and may let voters decide this fall.

In October of 2013, commissioners decided to merge the elected auditor and treasurer positions in January of 2019 (January of 2015 if one of the current auditor or treasurer retires). The board recently decided to include the recorder position as an appointed job and place the question on the

ballot in the fall general election, the Arlington Enterprise recently reported.

They’re considering allowing voters to decide this fall if the recorder should be appointed or remain elected.

Noting the issue has been periodically discussed for several years, Commissioner Bill Pinske of Arlington encouraged his colleagues to once-and-forall make a decision on what to do with the position – leave it as elected or appoint someone

to it – “once and for all and stop talking about it.�

Commissioner Jim Swanson of Gaylord wants the county to appoint highly-qualified professionals to the positions rather than someone who can win “a popularity contest to get in and not have the best qualifications.�

The decision to merge the auditor and treasurer came after citizens raised no objections at a public hearing last fall.

needed. According to Memorial Blood Centers, the SMSC’s blood drive partner, someone in the local community needs blood every two seconds. All blood types are needed, but especially type O, the universal donor. Each pint of donated blood can potentially save as many as three lives.

In order to give blood, a donor must be healthy, weigh at least 110 pounds, be at least 17 years old and not have donated blood in the last 56 days. Donors go through a brief screening process as part of the appointment.

Please make a blood donation appointment by calling the SMSC wellness coordinators at 952-233-2965. A limited number of walk-ins will also be accepted. The entire appointment takes about an hour.

SMSC blood drives among top 20 drives for Memorial Blood Centers. The SMSC has held 58 blood drive events since 1998 for Minnesota-based Memorial Blood Centers, resulting in 3,377 donated units of blood. In 2013 alone, the SMSC ranked 20th in blood drive donations, with 315 units collected.

Additional SMSC 2014 blood drives are scheduled for Aug. 12 and Dec, 9.

Decisions in April Will Likely Shape RS Fiber Optic Project Votes township boards and city councils take this month could shape the future of who could potentially benefit from the Renville-Sibley fiber optic line and who won’t.

Township boards and city councils are being asked to decide during April whether they want to join a joint powers board that will work with the RS Fiber Cooperative Board in the creation and operation of the fiber service to homes, businesses and farms in Sibley and eastern Renville counties. The deadline for agreeing to participate in the joint powers board is April 30.

With town board participation, the fiber line could be as close to Belle Plaine as Jessenland, Washington Lake and Henderson townships.

During an information meeting March 21 in Green Isle, RS Fiber Cooperative Board members Denny Schultz and Mark Brandt, the board’s chairperson, told an audience of approximately 30 area residents that a decision to sign a joint powers agreement is the first step in being part of the project.

The Green Isle City Council will consider the city’s participation fiber project at its meeting Tuesday (April 8, 6:30 p.m.).

A town board or city council that votes to sign a joint powers agreement can still opt out of the project before agreeing to collectively participate in the issuance of $15 million in gen-

eral obligation/tax abatement bonds to help fund later in the process. The only penalty opting out would bring is paying legal fees to rewrite the joint powers agreement excluding their respective city or township, Schultz told the audience.

The rest of the financing for the $57 million project will come through an additional $42 million in loans to build and operate the network.

Residents in participating cities and townships have the option of receiving one or all three of high-speed Internet, telephone and TV service via fiber optic cable. The majority of the line is expected to be in service in 2016.

believe the proposal will not fail. They cite the number of non-binding commitment cards and the idea that the service offers far better Internet service and more reliable TV service.

Schultz said residents in participating cities or townships would have an interest in promoting one or all three of the services. Between 40 and 45 percent of the people returning the pledge cards have indicated they are interested in two of the three services, he said. “We believe the risk (of failure) is minimal,� Brandt told the audience. “There’s really no way it shouldn’t be successful,�

Schultz said.

In Green Isle, the city, if it decides to participate, is interested in possibly bringing fiber optic service to the developed and undeveloped lots in the business park as a tool promoting economic development.

The city is also checking into the feasibility of extending the fiber optic line to the undeveloped residential lots in Green Isle, should the city participate in the program.

A council or town board that opts not to participate in the joint powers agreement will not be included when the fiber line is extended. Extending the line retroactively would be prohibitively expensive, a cost born solely by that respective township’s or city’s residents, Schultz said.

The month of April is “School Library Month�. I am certain that almost everybody remembers the library in their school.

It was a place to study, meet up with friends and a nice diversion from some studies if you had the time. School libraries are a great place to learn how to use a library. It is a large part of their reason to exist. The school libraries can also make it easier for a teacher to check the available materials in advance of making an assignment.

BELLE PLAINE HERALD, BELLE PLAINE, MINNESOTA

PAGE five

Thirty Years Ago This Week The Belle Plaine High School baseball team was scheduled to begin defending the Minnesota River Conference championship that it won in 1983 on April 9 at home against Jordan. Seven lettermen were returning. They were Mike Daly, Jeff Miller, Jeff Fogarty, Jeff Larson, Kevin Wolpern, Paul Woestehoff and Matt Hartman.

The BPHS boys’ track and field team took fifth place at the MRC Indoor Meet in Mankato, which was won by Norwood Young America. Belle Plaine’s Maury O’Brien won the pole vault.

60 Years Ago (1954)

Spreading the Word Budd and Dolores Hagen were spreading the word in 1984 that computers could improve the quality of life for handicapped individuals. The Hagens, who lived five miles south of Belle Plaine, had recently introduced a 7-year-old blind boy, Jason, to a microcomputer with a special keyboard and speech synthesizer. Jason had been diagnosed as “possibly� retarded and until he met the Hagens, his ability to communicate was almost non-existent. The keyboard was divided into two parts – half was covered with soft sheepskin; the other half was made of hard, touch sensitive masonite. When Jason pressed the soft side, the synthesizer said “Jason says yes!�

When he pressed the hard side, it said “Jason says no!�

The Racing Commission made it official – Shakopee was chosen as the site for the state’s first experience with legal, pari-mutuel gambling on horse races. The group of Minnesota investors along with operators of the Santa Anita Park in California and two insurance companies pledged to build a $67.2 million track in Shakopee east of the business district across Highway 101 from Valleyfair. The choice was not final until Ray Eliot, the commission chairman, cast the final vote and broke a 4-4 tie. Four commissioners had voted for the Eagan site. Proposals from Blaine, Savage and Woodbury got praise but no votes.

Meanwhile, Robert Schaalm, manager of Emma Krumbee’s Truck Stop and Restaurant on Highway 169 in Belle Plaine, said the racetrack will be a good thing for the entire area, including existing businesses.

The Minnesota River was once again covering bottom land and closing a few of the river roads.

The Blakeley crossing closed March 30. Also closed were crossings at Jordan and Carver as well as the Bloomington Ferry Bridge near Savage.

George Herrmann purchased the Ed Leonard Standard Bulk Oil Company in Belle Plaine.

Leonard had died unexpectedly of a heart attack on March 8 after 40 years in the oil business.

Filing for the Belle Plaine School Board were incumbents Don Koepp and Pat Schwartz, whose terms were expiring that year. No one else had yet to filed for the two seats.

The Belle Plaine Community Chorus, directed by Robert Wiley, would perform the Easter cantata, “No Greater Love,�

by John W. Peterson at 8 p.m. on Sunday, April 8 in the high school gymnasium.

Three Belle Plaine girls were named Scott County Dairy Princesses for 1984 at the annual banquet in New Prague.

Included were Jody Schmitz, Sharon Jones and Stephanie Seifert.

Martin Anthony (Bud) Capaul, 63, of Carver, passed away April 2 at his home. Mr. Capaul was born July 5, 1920 in St. Paul to Leonard and Mary (Worshak) Capaul. He was a supervisor for San Francisco Township and had been employed by the Belle Plaine Sales Barn. Survivors included his wife, Bernice, and four sons.

Ella C. Smith, 81, of Belle Plaine, passed away at Abbott Northwestern Hospital in Minneapolis March 27. Mrs. Smith was born on March 22, 1903 to Gottlieb and Augusta (Schmidt) Mahlmann in Blakeley Township. She married Howard Smith at St. John’s Lutheran Church in Belle Plaine on Nov. 26, 1929.

CapX Power Line Energized Through Belle Plaine Area

Culture, Sights, Music Education: Band Trip to NYC had It All

shall, Minn. through the Cedar Mountain Substation in Renville County to the Helena Substation just west of New Prague.

The segment crosses northern Sibley County, north of Arlington. It runs south of Green Isle, through Washington Lake and Faxon townships before crossing the Minnesota River just west of Belle Plaine into Blakeley Township. It runs along Stoppelmann Boulevard and crosses Highway 169 into Belle Plaine Township where it eventually turns east toward the Helena Substation. The line runs north of New Prague, through Cedar Lake and New Market townships.

The high-voltage line will be fully operational by 2015, said Therese LaCanne, corporate communications manager for Great River Energy. GRE and Xcel Energy are among the 11 electric utilities that cooperatively planned and built the three CapX lines across Minnesota.

The segment is part of the Mid-Continent Independent System (MISO), a grid that conducts electricity across several states and also serves local communities attached to it, LaCanne said.

CapX conducted tests during the past four to six weeks to make sure the line was ready for commissioning. The segment between the Cedar Mountain and Helena substations may be periodically de-commissioned during phases of ongoing construction, LaCanne said. “Initially, approximately 5 percent of the capacity of the (345 kV) line will be used. This will gradually increase over time as construction is finalized on other segments of line and those sections are energized,� she said. “As the other segments of the CapX 2020 lines and substations are energized and commissioned, and people use more electricity to cool their homes during the summer, the CapX 2020 lines will carry more power.�

From Hampton, located in southern Dakota County, the line runs south along a CapX line toward Rochester. From a substation there, it will cross Wisconsin serving the MISO grid and eventually turn south toward Chicago.

The CapX project from Brookings, S.D. to Hampton is a project estimated to cost approximately $700 million. It is “on budget,� LaCanne said.

The other projects include transmission lines that include Fargo, N.D. to St. Cloud and Bemidji to Grand Rapids, Minn.

The three CapX lines will cost approximately $2.2 billion.

their home on the eastern edge of Belle Plaine Township and enjoy open farmland.

Now, they see the Helena Substation.

They miss the open prairie to the south but accept the substation is a response to the growing need for electricity the power line delivers. They like their home, their neighbors and are close to their children and grandchildren.

They have no plans to move in the immediate future.

Like other farmers and landowners, the Pints are among those who use more electricity than they did years ago, thanks to multiple TVs, computers, refrigerator/freezers, other appliances as well as farm equipment.

Norm’s great-grandfather settled the land back in the 1860s.

Norm’s lived nearly all of his life on the land. The family received the Century Farm designation for the land in 1982.

They have no qualms with the family that sold the land to CapX. “It was a business decision,� Norm said.

Norm has helped his son and daughter move and visited them to New Mexico. He and Lori’s travels across the United States have demonstrated new power line projects are relatively common as population and demand both increase. “We’re not the only ones going through this,� he said. They note air-conditioning systems have made Florida and Arizona popular vacation and retirement destinations.

They have accepted the reality they must share the land with the utilities. A smaller line crosses farmland west of their home. Their only objection is the rust color of the towers that carry the power lines to and from the substation. The silvercolored poles CapX installed along Interstate 94 would be less conspicuous, they said.

They also note the substation, even though CapX dug into farmland, still obstructs their view. “We used to be able to see those woods,� Lori said. “Now all we can see is the tops of the trees.�

The Helena Substation, will cost $12.5 million when it is completed. Norm hears a faint humming sound from the substation.

During the approval process, area landowners and power line opponents raised concerns about the potential health hazards from stray voltage and electromagnetic field (EMF) emitted from the power line.

The Pints aren’t worried about health concerns for now. “I’m not going to create a problem until I find a problem,� he said.

LaCanne said CapX wants to hear from landowners and resiStaying Put Norm and Lori Pint used to dents who experience potenlook out the back window of tially negative effects from the line.

new elements of sound production and balance, Kruschke said.

An experienced university music professor, Bott made a solid connection with the high school band students, helping them with skills within their abilities, Kruschke said. “He met them where they were at. A lot of professors can’t do that,� she said. “It went better than I had hoped.�

After a visit to New York’s Chinatown and Little Italy, the students and their adult chaperones visited the sits of the Sept.

11, 2001 terrorists attack and the memorial there. They saw the memorial to the victims of the attack and the firefighters who were killed trying to save people in the World Trade Center that morning.

Kruschke said the students were respectful and took in the memorial even though it might have been a little difficult to comprehend the magnitude of the attack since they were toddlers at the time.

Tuesday (March 25), the students visited Liberty Island and Ellis Island for self-guided tours and saw the Statue of Liberty. The statue, a gift from France in 1886, was designated a national monument in 1924.

After visiting Grand Central Station that afternoon, the students visited the three grand theaters in Lincoln Center, The Metropolitan Opera House, New York State Theater and “Avery Fisher Hall.

At the Metropolitan Opera, the students enjoyed an upclose look at the historic facility where they saw a crew changing scenes on the stage. “Just the grandeur of the Metropolitan Opera was amazing, Kruchke said.

During one of the tours, she retold the story of a guide – an extra in one of the plays there – leading a group of Belle Plaine boys singing, “Row, Row, Row Your Boat� in a round.

The guide then told the boys they could now rightfully claim they had performed at the world-famous Avery Fisher Hall.

Kruschke was pleased with her students during the visit. She

said the students were respectful to people they met. “Minnesota nice stood true,� she said. “That’s not what’s necessarily true all the time in that part of the world.�

Through fund-raising efforts or family help, the students paid their own way on the tour.

It cost them $990 apiece plus eight meals. The BPHS band makes a trip every three years, alternating years with choir trips.

The students who went on the trip include Kellen Bergs, Hannah Burmeister, Jeremy Buszmann, Logan Caola, Hayden Cody, Ally Doucette, Nicholas Feddersen, Mattie Flaschenriem, John Franck, Bailey Gavin, Meghan Gavin, Sam Gavin, Marcus Giesen, Megan Glisczinski, Duane Good, Kendra Good, Sami Gregory, Kate Haege, Allison Hennes, Max Hughes, John Karl, Drew Keup, Taylor Kruger, Alex Kruschke, Ireland Lambrecht, Jenna L a Tour, Anthony Lovejoy, Allison Lundsten, Janessa Meuleners, Josh Mosbeck, Jacob Nowak, Robert Nowak, Dylan O’Brien, Carter Olson, Branden Pickar, Emily Pintozzi, Mason Ponath, Max Ponath, Jonathan Pressley, Hannah Preusser, Leah Schaefer, Patrick Schaefer, Steven Schmitt, Megan Schmitz, Andrea Schoenecker, Zach Schoenecker, Danika Schroeder, Rachel Schroers, Patrick Selly, Emily Smith, Kacie Staples, Schuyler Sterk, Joe Stoterau, Olivia Turmes, Donna Underferth, Ben Wagner and Alyssa Wentworth.

Imagine a school building principal giving up an administrator’s position to return to the classroom. It recently happened in Le Center.

Dave Dooley, principal at Le Center Elementary-Middle School since 2012, recently decided to return to the classroom at the start of the 201415 school year. The Tri-City United School Board recently approved an agreement with Dooley allowing him to return to teaching.

Dooley holds licenses to teach seventh/eighth science and social studies and elementary classroom teaching. Superintendent Teri Preisler said his teaching assignment for the coming school year would be determined as the district formalizes staffing plans, the Le Center Leader recently reported.

Dooley said teaching is a passion. He has spent much of the year on leave with health issues. He told the school board he is excited for the opportunity and said he is ready to go.

Dooley’s current salary as a building principal is $91,963.50. As a teacher next year, Preisler said his salary would be $51,921. Principals have a year round contract of 260 days. Teachers have a 183day contract.

Preisler lauded Dooley’s focus on students and commitment to their education, the newspaper reported. He served a decade as Lonsdale Elementary School’s principal before the Montgomery-Lonsdale School District merged with Le Center to form TCU in 2012.

By Dr. Kelly Smith

It is hard to believe that the fourth quarter of the school year is already upon us. The year has flown by once again as we are just nine weeks away from our graduation ceremony and the conclusion of another school year.

While the calendar may say April, our winter weather continues to hang on and delay the beginning of our spring sports season. Teams have been busy shoveling snow off of fields and tracks in an effort to enhance the opportunity to have an actual outdoor contest, but with snow, rain and cold remaining in this week’s forecast, it appears that first events will not occur until next week.

Our speech team hosts the Section meet this Friday and the high school will be full of speechers competing in a variety of categories for the right to advance to the State Meet. This year’s State Meet will be held at Blaine High School on Saturday, April 12. Good luck to all of our participants and coaches!

As many of you may know, our junior and senior students have the option of attending vocational and trade classes at the SW Metro Cooperative for the first two hours of the day. The classes offered typically classes the Belle Plaine alone would not have enough students to offer. Some examples of classes this year are Cosmetology, A+ Certification (a computer network course), Construction Trades, Graphic Design, Criminal Justice and others.

Approximately 55 students take advantage of the course offerings at SW Metro and ride the bus from Belle Plaine to Chaska each day to participate in the classes. Students arrive back on our campus in time for their third hour class.

While attending classes at the cooperative, students have the opportunity to participate in an organization called Skills USA. The mission of Skills USA is “to help its student members become world-class workers and responsible American citizens." The culmination of each year’s activities is a State Competition for all Minnesota Chapters where students compete in a variety of categories such as photography, Aesthetics, Crime Scene Investigation, Career Display and others. This year, Belle Plaine Senior Riley McCann earned first place in three categories – Job Interview, Pin Design and T-Shirt Design. She will now advance to the National Skills USA Competition to be held in Kansas City, Missouri on June 23-28.

Congratulations Riley on your great success and best of luck to you at Nationals!

New Prague School Board OKs Bond Sale, Bids for Stadium Work Improvements for the football and track stadium at New Prague High School received the fuel to move forward recently when the school board OK’d the sale of bonds to fund the work and accepted a bid for a company to complete the job.

The New Prague Area School Board sold $2.715 million in bonds to Northland Securities.

The company offered a winning bid of 2.6 percent over 15 years, the New Prague Times recently reported.

The high bid was 2.78 percent. The district’s bond coun-

sel, Springsted Inc. indicated 2.6 percent was “favorable” at a time interest rates are on the rise.

The board also accepted the bid of Cobalt Construction of St. Paul to perform the work. Its bid was $236,000 below the engineer’s estimate. All three bids were below the estimate.

The work includes realignment of the track and playing surface, installation of artificial turf and synthetic track. The stadium will also receive new lighting, a new press box and other improvements.

Sibley East Schools Looking at Building, Grade Alignments A Sibley East School District task force continued its work looking at possible grade alignments and the state of its aging buildings.

The group is looking at various options for grade alignment. It is also weighing the pros and cons of whether to build one building for middle and high school students while completing deferred maintenance work and remodeling another for elementary-schoolers, the Gaylord Hub recently reported.

The task force is also looking at facilities in Green Isle. A plan to place pre-kindergarten through fifth-graders in Gaylord, Arlington and Green Isle was viewed positively. Howev-

er, this plan is likely more expensive and complicated from a logistical standpoint. The cost and complexity of operating three sites has the task force looking at the affordability of a single-site campus before deciding whether it should look at other options.

The task force’s next meeting will include information on the tax information. The district’s per-student operating levy is well below the state average.

The district’s taxpayers have been spared additional schoolrelated taxes over the past several years, the newspaper reported.

The task force met again earlier this week (April 1).

Issue $6.9 million in Bonds for Projects

Hoping to make county and state money go further, Le Sueur County is mulling the notion of issuing bonds to pay for road projects in the county’s five-year capital improvement plan.

County Administrator/Highway Engineer Darrell Pettis pitched the idea of issuing $6.9 million in bonds at the Jan. 28 board meeting. Noting the priority they have placed on road projects, commissioners gave Pettis the go-ahead to continue looking into the issuance process, the Le Center Leader recently reported.

Of a $6.9 million bond, Le Sueur County says only $2.9 million would effect landown-

ers’ property taxes. The issuance would prompt a 1 or 2 percent increase in the county’s annual property tax levy for debt service. The remaining $4.9 million would be covered by state aid payments, money created by the gas, wheelage and aggregate taxes.

Pettis showed commissioners a chart detailing the condition of county roads since 2007, the newspaper reported. About 85 percent of the county roads are in top-end condition, a number that changed little between 2007 and 2011. But the number of roads in poor or very poor condition has increased dramatically, he said.

Elysian Mayor Wants Le Sueur County to Open Museum Elysian Mayor Clinton Stoen recently asked the Le Sueur County Board to do something to open the county historical society museum in his city.

The building houses privately owned community historical artifacts and displays. It has not been open, Stoen claims, for more than four years. He also contends the building may not have heat or electrical service, even though the county budgeted $20,000 in 2014 for the Le Sueur County Historical Society expenses that include utilities, the Montgomery Messenger recently reported.

Stoen asked the commissioners if they had been in the museum. One, Commissioner John King of Le Sueur, was the

lone respondent, reporting he had been in the entrance to the building – “just the entrance.”

The Le Sueur County Board provides funding for the county historical society, as long as the group maintains an open membership policy. Two years ago, the society and county completed a nasty and protracted spat over legitimacy when two groups claimed to be the rightful Le Sueur County Historical Society.

Stoen claims many membership applications “from certain individuals in the community” have been set aside.

The board agreed to revisit the issue with the appropriate parties.

Hearing Favor Hike in County Sales Tax (continued from page 1)

Belle Plaine.

Public Comment

Despite his contempt for taxes, Robert Wagner, general manager of Jim’s Apple Barn, opened the hearing with an endorsement of the proposal. Wagner, Commissioner Joe Wagner’s younger brother, said his business is reliant on good roads, even though the proposed ½ cent tax would be collected on just over half the products sold at Jim’s Apple Barn.

“Good roads support commerce. Good roads allow businesses to flourish,” said Wagner, a Blakeley Township resident.

“Poor roads do not serve businesses well.”

A representative of the Shakopee Chamber of Commerce said the organization supported the proposal. Savage Mayor Janet Williams delivered an endorsement of the proposal from her city council, with conditions that included a promise to use the $6 million tax revenue in addition to existing funding and not in lieu of it. The council also wants the tax rescinded if Scott County is forced to join CTIB. Although the Prior Lake City Council had yet to formally take a position on the proposed tax, Prior Lake Mayor Kenneth Hedberg supported the proposal. Hedberg pointed to the need for additional revenue for roads in a county expected to grow by 50 percent by 2040. He said the plan, if enacted, would take advantage of the 5 million people who come into Scott County annually to spend money at entertainment venues in Scott County.

“Those visitors use our infrastructure,” he said adding “they should help pay for our infrastructure needs.”

Jay Whiting, a Shakopee city councilor, also supported the proposed local-option ½ cent tax. Whiting pointed out the state can’t keep up with the demands. He pointed out the revenue from a local option tax would stay in the county.

Wade Johnson, a Shakopee resident, told the board he sup-

ports the tax even though he’s generally “pretty tax averse.”

He pointed out the county could use the money the tax generates to leverage more state and federal dollars for road projects.

But not everybody was supportive of the proposed local option tax. While some offered skepticism on the sun-setting of the tax, others opposed it outright.

Jeff Schmidt of Belle Plaine Township said one of the county’s options – doing nothing – “is always a win for taxpayers.”

Schmidt opposes any tax that could even potentially be used for trains and mass transit.

“The state has enough money for road projects,” he said.

“They choose to spend it on trains.”

Alexandra Matyja of Prior Lake claimed the proposed tax would hurt families still struggling with the economic downturn. She argued that families, unlike commissioners who vote themselves a raise, are making tough choices and called on commissioners to cut spending and live within a tighter budget.

Gerald Williams, a Cedar Lake Township supervisor, also opposed the tax. He claimed there’s not enough projects on a list of proposed roadwork in the townships the proposed tax might help fund.

The preliminary list includes roundabouts at the junctions of Highway 13 and County Road 8, county roads 8 and 91, county roads 2 and 15, County Road 27 and Connelly Parkway in Savage and pavement rehabilitation projects on county roads 78, 27 and 2.

Other projects the additional revenue could fund include an interchange at the junction of county roads 212 and 87, reconstruction of the intersection of County Road 10 and Xeon Avenue, reconstruction of the intersection of county roads 14 and 69, an interchange at the intersection of Highway 169 and County Road 78/Highway 41. Another possible project includes reconstruction of the intersection of county roads 8 and 23.

Tigers Eager to Play Ball!

by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine High School baseball team recently returned from Omaha, Neb., where warmer weather and drier fields made it possible for the team to escape its gym for a couple of days during spring break and play in the great outdoors.

“We had an inter-squad scrimmage that allowed us to compete and work on some things that we just can’t do in the gym,” said Tigers coach Pat Schultz, who is in his fourth year as head varsity coach.

Belle Plaine has some big holes to fill from last year’s team, which finished season 7-7 in the Minnesota River Conference, 8-12 overall. Included in that mark was a victory at rival Jordan in the first round of the section playoffs before the Tigers’ season came to an end following back-to-back losses to Glencoe-Silver Lake and Watertown-Mayer.

Among those who graduated from last year’s team are all-

conference outfielder Nick Eliason and pitcher Jacob Meger, the former of whom led the Tigers offensively with his speed and ability to get on base; and the latter of whom led the team in innings pitched. Also gone is catcher Jordan Johnson, who was all-conference honorable mention, as well as several other players, including outfielder Zach Juaire, first baseman Kyle O’Brien, and infielders Jayden Howie and Jack Winders.

Leading the cast of returning players is all-conference recipient and future Augustana College baseball player Derek Dahlke, who posted a 3-0 record on the mound for the Tigers last season with a 0.37 earned-run average. At the plate, he had a .348 on-base percentage while hitting in the middle of the lineup.

Also back is senior infielder/ pitcher Aaron Bigaouette, who was all-conference two years ago. Other returning starters are senior Chase Emmers (pitcher/

infielder) and senior Gavin Dauwalter (pitcher/first baseman). Returning letter winners include senior Colton Hentges (infielder), senior Troy Gudmonson (outfielder), junior Ben Wagner (infielder), junior Joe Hankins (outfielder) and sophomore Aiden Ladd (catcher/ pitcher).

Also on the roster are senior Cameron Lark (catcher/ infielder), and juniors Tyler Schumacher (outfielder), Mike Szaroletta (outfielder), Alec Selly (infielder), Nick Johnson infielder and outfielder) and Dylan O’Brien (infielder).

“Pitching should be a huge strength of ours this year led by Dahlke and Emmers, who both

threw a lot of innings last year,” Schultz said. “We are also expecting a lot of innings out of Wagner, Hankins, Biggy (Bigaouette) and Ladd among several others still competing for innings.”

While Schultz feels pitching is a strength this year, he needs his team to turn things around at the plate.

“We didn’t hit the ball very well last year and that is something the kids have been working very hard at this year. I am excited to see what we will be able to if we keep working and improving like we have the first two weeks (of practice).”

As for the conference title, Schultz said his his team could

be a factor.

“I think it will be a pretty good battle this year with many teams having one very good pitcher. It should come down to whose secondary pitchers step up and what teams can play well each and every game,” Schultz said. “Norwood Young America has some good, young players returning and Jordan and Watertown-Mayer both had very good years last year. If our pitching is as strong as we hope and we get some good defense and take productive at-bats, we will hopefully be competing at the top of the MRC. “Last year was a frustrating year in that we were in almost every game and had a hard time putting a team away to win the close games,” Schultz continued. “The players are working hard and doing the little things in practice that will hopefully help them finish and win the close games.”

Tigers Aiming High This Year

by Dan Ruud With three of its four all-conference selections returning from a team that finished 10-4 in the Minnesota River Conference and 15-7 overall, including a five-game run in the postseason, the Belle Plaine High School softball team is optimistic about the 2014 season.

“I’m looking forward to this season with this group of girls.

They have more potential than any other group I’ve coached,” said Jeremy Kalal, who is in his fourth year as the Tigers’ head coach.

“What I love about this group is that there isn’t any one huge standout that will carry our team, but we have the most solid lineup one through nine that we’ve ever had and there are a lot of girls that can contribute in a huge way. We are truly a well-rounded team this year and I look forward to seeing what these girls can accomplish, Kalal said.”

The three all-MRC returnees

are ace pitcher Maddie Studnicka, now a senior; freshman third baseman Elizabeth Johnson, who as an eighth-grader batted .374 last spring; and sophomore shortstop and pitcher Kaylee Hentges, who hit .400 last year.

All-conference first baseman Sam LeMay, third baseman Claire Otto (honorable mention) and first baseman Sophie Brazil are among the players who graduated last spring.

Joining Studnicka, Johnson and Hentges as returning regulars and letter winners from 2013 are junior outfielder Kate Schmit, junior catcher Kaylee Shields, sophomore first baseman Maddi Lark, sophomore outfielder Kenzie Koepp and sophomore pitcher/first baseman Maddie Haller.

Also contending for varsity playing time this season are freshman second baseman Hailey Witt, junior first baseman/ outfielder Kaitlyn Rathe, junior first baseman/outfielder Torrie

Any weaknesses?

“I think the only question left for this group to answer is if their offensive output can increase enough to take the next step,” Kalal said. “Last year was a good offensive year but we lost a big bat in Sam LeMay, and if the returners can step up their game a little bit and have the new girls contribute with their bats, we’ll be just fine.”

Kalal said he expects the teams to beat in the MRC will be the same as last year – MRC champion Norwood Young America and Watertown-Mayer, which tied Belle Plaine for second place. He added that Le Sueur-Henderson can be in the mix as well with the pitching it returns.

“Our strength this year should be our pitching and defense,” said Kalal. “We return a lot of defensive experience and we have girls that are more capable of stepping in and filling the holes left by our seniors last year.”

Kalal added that Studnicka, who had a 6-1 record in the MRC last year and batted .415, will pitch the majority of innings this year, just as she did last season. Fellow pitchers Hentges and Haller will backup Studnicka.

“Our pitching depth is huge. I feel we have three pitchers that can all win big games for us this year,” Kalal said.

Belle Plaine Boys and Girls Set to Open Outdoor Season

by Dan Ruud Weather permitting, the starting pistol to the outdoor track and field season will go off shortly after 4 p.m. this Thursday at the Belle Plaine Athletic Complex, where the Tigers are scheduled to compete against Jordan, Delano, Mayer Lutheran and Tri-City United.

Both the Belle Plaine boys’ and girls’ teams won their respective Minnesota River Conference indoor meets on March 22 at Mankato. They are also the defending conference outdoor champions. The Belle Plaine girls also won the subsection and section team championships in 2013.

Girls’ Preview

If the Tigers are to repeat as MRC, subsection and section team champions, they will have to do so without all-MRC and state qualifiers and graduates Cassie Caola, Jamie Read, Kiley Hallgren and Haley Fogarty, all of whom were among Belle Plaine’s best athletes in several running and jumping events for several years.

“We graduated a strong group of seniors last season and so we open up this year with holes to fill in the horizontal jumps (long and triple), throws and depth in the distance and sprints,” said Belle Plaine coach Rich Foust.

“Our strongest events will continue to be the hurdles, pole vault, high jump and sprints with the distance and the re-

lays well covered as well. We do have a deep team and some younger athletes ready to step up into larger roles. If we can successfully replace last year’s graduation losses – especially the horizontal jumps – we should have another successful season, Foust said.”

Back for their senior season in 2014 and their events are Corey Krautkremer (distance), Devin Lehman (throws), Amara Meyer (sprints, hurdles, high jump), BreAnn McDermand ( (sprints, pole vault, throws), Tori Schroeder (distance), Megan Schumacher (horizontal jumps, sprints), Emily Vinkemeier (horizontal jumps, sprints, hurdles) and Jessica Weldon (sprints, long jump).

The juniors are Shannon Egan (sprints, pole vault), Alesia Hastings (sprints, triple jump), Katlyn Jeurissen (sprints, long jump), Janessa Meuleners (distance), Riley Pumper (sprints, long jump), Emilyn Siemon (distance, high jump), Olivia Turmes (throws) and Cheyane Westin (sprints, triple jump).

The sophomores include Bridget Egan (pole vault, sprints), Anna Donkhong (sprints, long jump), Ally Fink (sprints, high jump), Jenna Gatz (sprints, horizontal jumps), Kali Gorman (pole vault, sprints), Nicole Kutscher (distance, high jump), Dakota Poitra (sprints, hurdles, high jump), Danika Schroeder (distance), Alissa Schultz (distance), Kacie Staples (sprints) and Trinity Webb (sprints, pole

vault).

The freshmen are Hannah Burmeister (sprints, long jump), Selin Dikmen (sprints, hurdles, long jump), Rachel Eliason (sprints, long jump), Rachel Fahey (throws), Mariena Hayden (sprints, triple jump, high jump, shot put), Emily Krautkremer (sprints), Taylor Kruger (sprints), Haley Leger (sprints, high jump), Alexa Lenz (distance, triple jump), Yanira Mendez (sprints, hurdles), Andrea Schoencker (sprints, pole vault) and Grace Stier (sprints, long jump).

There are two eighth-graders – Sarah Harthan (sprints, hurdles, pole vault) and Skylee Schwingler (distance).

The returning all-conference athletes for the Tigers are Gatz (400 dash, 4x200 and 4x400 relays), Meuleners (3,200 run and 4x800 relay) and Bridget Egan (pole vault). Also receiving allconference honors in 2013 who are back this year are Siemon

(4x800 relay), Leger (4x800 and 4x400 relays), Meyer (4x200 relay), Donkhong (4x200 relay) Shannon Egan (4x100 relay), Weldon (4x100 relay) and Kruger (4x400 relay).

“Every MRC team has a few very strong individuals who will score in their main events for their team,” Foust said.

“However, Watertown-Mayer and Tri-City United will probably be the strongest two teams that we will need to battle with for the MRC title as they went second and third last season and did not lose much to graduation.

“This year, we were moved to Section 2AA for true team sections and we are striving to be one of the top teams in that section competing for the right to go to true team state after just missing out last season,” Foust continued.

Belle Plaine qualified for the state true team meet in 2012 as a member of Section 4AA.

The Belle Plaine boys’ team has some 45 members out for varsity this season, including 33 letter winners from the 2013 MRC championship team.

The all-conference returnees are seniors Zach Bahr (triple jump) and David Schabelski (pole vault). Bahr was also a member of last year’s allconference 4x200-meter relay team, all of whom are back. The others are seniors Luke Dandurand and Chris Holmbeck, and sophomore Paul Nasby.

Other members of the team and their events are seniors Zach Johnson (sprints), Jacob Nowak (throws), Dylan Olson (hurdles), Alec Otto (throws), Blayne Prochaska (sprints, long jump, triple jump), Zach Schoenecker (pole vault), Jake Schultz (throws), Josh Spellman (throws) and Aiden Winterfeldt (throws).

The juniors are Tony Dvorak (distance and pole vault), Alex Hazzard (throws), Jordan Harthan (sprints), Max Hughes (distance), Brady Johnson (sprints, high jump, triple jump and long jump), Robert Nowak (hurdles), Carter Olson (distance), Branden Pickar (distance) and Taylor Ponath (sprints, high jump).

The sophomores include Ruben Baltierrez (hurdles), Dylan Bigaouette (distance), Shane Beuge (sprints), Jeremy Buszmann (sprints), Carter Corl (distance), Ben Dvorak (sprints),

Dalton Friedrichs (hurdles), Jared Kalal (throws), Brendan Mackedanz (distance), Derek May (distance), Noah Mewes (distance), Bryce Nelson (throws), Noah Reutzel (hurdles), Christian Roell (sprints, long jump), Brandon Schulz (pole vault), Nik Weiers (triple jump, high jump) and Taylor Witt (distance).

The freshmen are Hayden Cody (distance), Zak Hughes (sprints, pole vault), Nate Loegering (distance), Mason Ponath (sprints) and Max Ponath (hurdles).

Tigers head coach Adam Smith said with so many people back this season, why stop at a MRC championship.

“We would like to repeat as conference champions and win the subsection as well . . . This is a great group of guys that are willing to put in hard work to achieve their goals.”

Gary Bigaouette

who lost his short courageous battle to cancer one year ago April 1, 2013.

Everything happened so fast, the journey we were on together would be our last.

What your eyes said to me that morning came straight from your heart, It was at that time we knew it was time for you to part.

When you heard the voice of Jesus, gently calling from on high, He was holding out his loving arms but I could not say goodbye.

So I said “see you later big brother� wait for me, In the beauty of God’s Heaven, where the best is yet to be.

Thank you so much Gary, for everything...I love you.

Deeply missed by your little sis, Suz

In memory of

Thank you for the caring support and expressions of sympathy on the passing of our husband, father, grandfather and greatgrandfather Tony. Special thanks to staff at Kingsway and The Lutheran Home who cared for Tony during the last few years. Thank you to Father Kaluza for your presence at our family gatherings and officiating at his funeral mass. We appreciate all the support from Our Lady of the Prairie – the choir, organist, mass servers and lunch servers. Also, thank you to Kolden's Funeral Home for assisting the family in planning Tony's celebration of life.

The family of Anton (Tony) Zweber

Thank You

We are reminded of the importance of family and friends at a time like this.

Thank You for the kindness and support you have shown our family in memory of John.

We wish to thank the following people: Emergency Staff at St. Francis and the Allina Ambulance service, Shakopee Fire and Police Departments, the Doctors and Nursing staff at Methodist Hospital-2North ICU, Father Wittman , Father Schoenberger and Deacon Heiman at St. Mary’s church, Garrick and the funeral choir, the KC Hall, Molly and all those who helped with the funeral luncheon, the caring staff at McNearney Funeral Home.

Gary Bigaouette who died one year ago April 1st.

“Little did we know that morning God was going to call your name.

In life we loved you dearly, in death we do the same.

It broke our hearts to lose you, but you did not go alone.

For part of us went with you, the day God called you home.

You left us peaceful memories, your love is still our guide.

And though we cannot see you, you are always by our side.

Our family chain is broken and nothing seems the same.

But as God calls us one by one, the chain will link again.�

Sadly missed by his wife and soul mate Mary Ann, Jeremy Bigaouette family and Tonia Siehndel family.

We’re on TWITTER! @bpherald

We are grateful and appreciate everyone who helped during this difficult time.

LeRoy Bentfield, left, and Wayne Mathwig were busy Tuesday morning cooking maple sap on wood-burning stoves outside Harold Edberg’s building south of Highway 169 in Belle Plaine.

The entire maple syrup producing process, from tapping the trees to cooking the sap to bottling the syrup, is a spring ritual for the Belle Plaine group, which numbers about a dozen, mostly retired men.

A Controlled Burn Even as flames overwhelmed the old farmhouse, firefighters kept the blaze from spreading to trees and a nearby power line in the house’s front yard. The fire was set by firefighters after small training fires inside the house.

Called to Blakeley Belle Plaine firefighters responded to a fire at Pro Roasting Solutions (former Blakeley elevator site) Tuesday afternoon. The cause of the fire or the extent of damage to the facility was not known prior to Tuesday’s press time. One unconfirmed report was that the fire originated in a peanut roaster.

Local Syrup Makers Hope That This Week’s Cool Weather Will Get Sap Flowing Again As March was about to give way to April on Monday, Harold Edberg and the rest of the Belle Plaine maple syrup producing crew of about a dozen men (mostly retirees) found only traces of sap dripping from the local maple trees.

Edberg said his group had collected about 300 gallons of sap during the day on Sunday, which was preceded by a cooler Saturday night. But Sunday’s overnight warmth that spilled into an even warmer Monday had at least temporarily cutoff the flow of sap. That’s because maple trees generate the most sap when cool (not freezing or overly warm) days are followed by freezing nights. The weather for the rest of this week is expected to be more conducive for maple sap collection.

Property Valuation Hearing Set for April 21 The Belle Plaine City Council will hold its annual board of equalization meeting 5:30 p.m.

Monday, April 21 at the Belle Plaine Government Center.

The purpose of the meeting is to give property owners an opportunity to speak with Scott County assessors about their 2014 property valuation for 2015 payable year. The city council serves as the board of review and will make the final determination about changes made to the valuation.

The Scott County Assessors Office normally reviews approximately 25 percent of the properties in Belle Plaine each year, allowing for a complete review of all properties every four years. Property valuations are based on set criteria and state law requires property evaluations to be within 90 to 105 percent of market value.

Anyone wishing to comment on their property valuations will be heard at the hearing.

Property taxes will not be discussed. Property tax information is discussed at the city’s truth-in-taxation hearing held annually late in the year.

Like last year, there were plenty of freezing nights this March but most of the days were too cool. The crew is hoping that at least the first half of April will allow for more sap collection than March could generate.

Once the trees bud, the maple sap collection season is basically done.

Edberg said the best year in the past decade for producing maple syrup locally was 2011, when the group collected and cooked some 3,000 gallons of sap, which produced 76 gallons of syrup. It normally takes 30 to 40 gallons of sap to produce a gallon of syrup. The amounts vary depending on the sugar content of the sap, which is mostly water.

The Belle Plaine group nor-

mally taps about 200 trees, each with a bucket hanging from the spout (spile).

LeRoy Bentfield and Wayne “Skip” Mathwig were among the members of the local crew cooking a batch of maple syrup Tuesday morning on woodburning stoves outside Harold Edberg’s building south of Highway 169 (behind Belle Plaine Animal Hospital).

After it’s bottled, most of the syrup is distributed to the workers and the landowners who allow the maple trees on their properties to be tapped by the group.

Local school classes sometimes come to witness the entire maple syrup producing process, from tapping the trees to cooking the sap to bottling the syrup.
