Reorganization Plans Continue to Unfold at School District

Belle Plaine School Board members got a look at how the district is reorganizing its activities and community education director positions for next year now that reductions in spending for the 2016-17 school year have been set in motion. At Monday night’s (May 9) school board workshop, Superintendent Ryan Laager outlined his plan for directors. The plan is based on Activities/Community Education Director Chad Eischens’ position as currently constructed being eliminated. Eischens’ position was eliminated during the $434,860 budget cut the school board approved in March. The board will formally OK the reorganization plan at its next meeting (May 16). Laager’s reorganization calls for Mindy Chevalier, the current junior-senior high school assistant principal, to add the community education department’s lead position to her existing job duties. The activities director work Eischens performed will be part of a reorganized position in which an existing physical education teacher also becomes the activities director. That position will reduce a full-time phy-ed. teacher with a

full-time teaching load to a parttime teacher/part-time activities director, Laager told the board. The position will be posted internally this coming week. Like Eischens did when he was first hired at the beginning of the 2015-16 school year, Chevalier will need to complete the license work to take over the community education lead spot. That work should be completed by the end of the year, Laager said. “It shouldn’t take that long because she already has her administrator’s license,” he said. The additional responsibilities will increase Chevalier’s sal-

ary slightly, Laager said. That will be doable because some of Chevalier’s salary can be shifted from the general fund to the community education budget. The split has yet to be determined, Laager said. The proposal has won the apparent approval of the city, which shares with the Belle Plaine School District the cost of community education. Laager said Mayor Mike Pingalore and City Administrator Holly Kreft have informally

City Getting Deeper Look Into Ridgeview/Lutheran Home Plans City Council to Hold Public Hearing Next Monday More plan reviews and steps are being made toward what will be one of Belle Plaine’s largest and most noticeable building projects ever, construction of which could start this summer. The Belle Plaine Planning and Zoning Commission Monday night took a look at the latest and most detailed plans for the complex this past Monday night to make its recommendation to the city council, which will hold a public hearing on just that shortly after 6:30 p.m. next Monday. The commission’s

recommendation Monday was a thumbs up. Ridgeview Medical Center plans to build a mixed-use development at what will be 165 Commerce Drive West, situated near the new overpass that is currently under construction at Highway 169 and Enterprise Drive. The most current plans call

for a 12,900-square-foot medical clinic, a 10,000-square-foot fitness/wellness canter and a three-story, 54-unit senior independent living center. (see drawings) A second phase is also on the drawing board that

Benitez Joins Vergara in Pleading Guilty to Killing Earl Olander Both Men Will Spend at Least 25 Years in Prison

Two weeks after the first of two men pleaded guilty to murdering Earl Olander in his San Francisco Township home last April, the second man accepted blame for killing the 90-yearold retired farmer. Friday (May 6) Edson Benitez accepted a plea agreement. It’s the same plea deal his accomplice, Reinol VerBenitez gara, accepted April 28. The two men pleaded guilty in Carver County District court to second-degree murder, Vergara aiding and abetting. In

exchange for the guilty pleas, the prosecution dropped three of four murder charges, including indictments on first-degree murder charges. Benitez and Vergara were sentenced to 37½ years imprisonment for killing the rural Belle Plaine man. They must each serve a minimum of 25 years before being eligible for early release. Benitez, 29, and Vergara, 35, are in this country illegally and will be deported after completing their sentences, Carver County Attorney Mark Metz previously said. The sentence they received was more severe than the state’s sentencing guidelines for the

crime. The guidelines call for a sentence of 21 to 30½ years for second-degree murder. Prosecutors cited the cruelty of the crime, Olander’s age and his being defenseless against the bludgeoning. Benitez was set to accept the plea deal late last month but then backed out. He was given additional time to think about the offer which Vergara accepted. Sentencing Vergara was delayed to use the potential of a longer sentence to compel Vergara to cooperate in the pos-

Mail Carriers to Collect Food Donations This Saturday Belle Plaine mail carriers and others across the country will be collecting nonperishable food donations from homes and businesses when the U.S. Postal Service conducts annual food

drive on Saturday, May 14. You are asked to put you nonperishable food donation in a bag by your mail box that day. All donations will be delivered to a local food bank.

Belle Plaine native Stephanie (Schmit) Ableidinger, her husband Mac and daughters Estelle and Colette will always remember, the couple’s first child. They have turned the grief of his death into an annual toy drive for less-fortunate children.

B.P. Native, Husband Turned Tragedy into Gifts of Hope, Joy From the depths of despair to the bittersweet joy of remembering their son, Stephanie (Schmit), a Belle Plaine native, and her husband Mac Ableidinger will never fully understand why they can’t hold their son, Dane. But the couple uses their son’s death as a means to bring joy to families who don’t have the treasurers so many take for granted. They created Dane’s Closet as a means to remember and hold close the memory of a little boy who died Aug. 18, 2011 -- 111 days after he was born. Dane Ableidinger died from positional asphyxia resulting from

an unsafe sleeping environment at a home daycare in Eagan. “Everything changes when you lose a child,” Ableidinger said. She noted Dane would have started kindergarten this coming fall. “Right away, we knew we wanted to do something. We wanted it to be positive.” Dane’s Closet is intended to raise toys for children in need. The toys are donated each year at a birthday party the couple, their family and friends hold on a day near Dane’s birthday. The party is held in Eagan. The toys are then donated to organizations that help children, like Belle Plaine-based Southern

Valley Alliance for Battered Women, St. Joseph’s Home for Children in Minneapolis, Ronald McDonald House, the Lewis House, Faith’s Lodge, Sharing & Caring Hands, and Dakota Woodlands (a shelter for homeless women). This year, they received 490 toys to donate to St. Joseph’s Home for Children and Southern Valley Alliance for Battered Women. The toys are intended

A Drill to Remember

Getting A View of Things

Belle Plaine police, firefighters, ambulance and other area emergency personnel teamed up with several Belle Plaine High School student actors to stage a fatal crash scene near the high school on Friday, the day before prom. Pictured below tending to one of the acting injured are Belle Plaine police officer Terry Stier and ambulance member Byron Seggerman. The annual mock crash serves as a reminder of the horrors that can result from driving under the influence, which is among the leading killers of young people.

Luke Vinkemeier of Gotha climbed up on a perch of sorts to get an elephant’s eye view of the goings-on at Saturday’s 34th annual Scott-Carver Threshers Association Consignment Auction, Swap Meet and Flea Market on the Threshers Grounds adjacent to the Scott County Fairgrounds in St. Lawrence Township. Although smoke from Canadian wildfires created somewhat hazy conditions throughout the day, the event benefitted from an otherwise chamber of commerce-like day with sunny skies and temperatures in the 70s.

Sundblad Trial Finally Underway

Just over two years to the day after he allegedly killed his infant son, Joshua Sundblad’s trial began yesterday (May 10) in Scott County District Court. Having waived his right to a speedy trial, Sundblad’s fate rests in the verdict of Judge Christian Wilton. Sundblad recently waived his right to a jury trial. Based on the number of potential witnesses, the trial is expected to take up to two weeks. Sundblad is indicted on charges that include first-degree murder while committing child abuse. It also includes two counts of first-degree assault, one count of second-degree manslaughter, and two counts of third-degree assault.

Sundblad allegedly admitted to another man, Ron Plumley, in jail he intentionally killed the baby. His attorney claims the credibility of the man is questionable at best. The indictment alleges the attorney said Sundblad admitted to Plumley, who was serving time in the county jail for burglary, that he inflicted severe injuries to the baby’s head and ribs as the baby continued to decline. The attorney said Sundblad admitted to Plumley in June of 2015, according to the indictment, that the day the baby died (May 9, 2014) he covered the infant with a pillow, a blanket and some clothing in an effort to “put him out of his misery.”

According to the original criminal complaint, police, firefighters and paramedics responded to a report of an unresponsive baby at a house on the 200 block of South Elk Street May 9, 2014 at approximately 5:22 p.m. Sundblad directed them to a bedroom where they found the baby and his mother. The baby’s skin was dark purple and would only lighten in color when oxygen was administered. The child was pronounced dead that night at Minneapolis Children’s Hospital at 10:52 p.m. Sundblad has remained in the Scott County Jail, unable to post the $50,000 cash bail/$500,000 bond.

A former technology industry executive and a radio talk show host are the endorsed contestants who will run to represent Belle Plaine and the rest of Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional District this November. Democrats unanimously backed Angie Craig in her bid to represent the DFL at the District Two Congressional Craig Convention

April 30 in Shakopee. She’s a former executive with St. Jude Medical. Last weekend, the GOP endorsed Jason Lewis after six ballots. He was one of four GOP candidates seeking the party’s backing for the Lewis run to replace U.S. Rep. John Kline, a Republican. Kline backed Darlene Miller, a Prior Lake resident

who owns a Burnsville manufacturing company. Lewis has already referred to Craig as a “radical liberal.” DFL Chairman Ken Martin described Lewis as an “extreme right-wing (Donald) Trump supporter” who is “extremely out-of-touch with the district’s families.” Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional District includes Scott, Dakota Goodhue and Wabasha counties. Portions of Rice and Washington counties are also included in the district.

Survey Out to Determine Need for More Bus Service on Highway 169 Between Mankato and Twin Cities The Minnesota Department of Transportation and other organizations are studying the potential for expanded intercity bus service on Highway 169 between Mankato and the Twin Cities, including Belle Plaine. The purpose of the study is to identify potential Highway 169 intercity service travel markets, needs and opportunities. The information will be used to develop intercity bus options and recommendations.

As part of the project, Mn/ DOT is surveying the general population to understand the demand for potential bus service along the Highway 169 corridor. “We want to determine if there is a measurable unmet need for connecting our rural areas with the larger cities and tie this service into existing services along the route as well as those being developed in the Twin Cities

area,” states a Mn/DOT press release. The city of Belle Plaine has been included as one of the important contacts to help complete and distribute a short survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Hwy169IntercityBusGeneralSurvey. The deadline is May 15. More information on the study can be found at www.mndot. gov/d7/projects/hwy169study/. .

Most Corn in the Ground For a second time this young growing season, area farmers and others across the state were able to take advantage of a nearly week-long dry period to plant corn, and afterward, receive some timely rain just after the seeds went in the ground. According to the Scott County rain gauge on the Ewald Gruetzmacher farm in Belle Plaine, .91 of an inch fell Monday through Tuesday morning. According to the USDA, 89 percent of Minnesota’s crop has been planted, 17 days

ahead of the ďŹ ve-year average and two days behind last year. Twenty-ďŹ ve percent of the corn crop has emerged, a week ahead of average. Forty-six percent of the soybean crop has been planted, 12 days ahead of average and three days behind last year. Spring wheat planting was 87 percent complete, 17 days ahead of average and nine days behind last year. Forty-eight percent of the spring wheat crop has emerged, 12 days ahead of average.

B.P. Native (continued from page 1) for children ages 1 into their teens. “We knew we wanted help underprivileged kids, children who aren’t as fortunate as we were growing up,â€? she said. In the ďŹ ve years they have been collecting toys for donation and as wrapped gifts, Dane’s Closet has received about 2,000 toys. Stephanie recalls birthdays were special times in JoAnn and Dick Schmit’s house in Belle Plaine. She’s the youngest of eight children. Birthdays and celebrations were just as special for Mac and his family. He grew up in North Dakota.

The Birthday Party Was Planned

Stephanie recalls dancing around the couple’s house holding her son. His giggle and laughter ďŹ lled the room. She had his ďŹ rst birthday party planned several months in advance. Stephanie and her husband knew the room would have been ďŹ lled with toys. Donating toys for children just made sense. “Sharing that excitement with our son would have been very special to us,â€? Mac said. “After Dane’s death, we knew we wanted to do something every year to celebrate how old Dane is turning in heaven.â€? The couple has targeted organizations that help children. On Dane’s actual birthday, they deliver the toys. “It’s bittersweet,â€? Stephanie said. “We never know how we’re going to be. It’s always an emotional day.â€? The toys they donated to Southern Valley will help children whose mothers don’t have the resources to provide them gifts. For Stephanie, the donation to Southern Valley is a

small way she remembers her Belle Plaine roots. A stylist, Stephanie has donated her time cutting and styling hair for victims of domestic abuse on several occasions. “It’s so nice they understand the needs of children,â€? said Mary Ann Bigaouette, SVABW’s executive director. “With a donation like this, we can help them help their children.â€? JoAnn Schmit is impressed her daughter and son-in-law remain committed to Dane’s Closet. Having given birth to two daughters since Dane’s death – Estelle, 3½, and Colette, 2 -- Stephanie is expecting the birth of her fourth child in the next week or so. She and Mac have resisted the temptation to ďŹ nd out if they will have another son or daughter. “Obviously, we’d love another little boy, but whatever God and Dane have planned will be OK,â€? Stephanie said. But Stephanie and Mac are making sure their children always know about their big brother, Dane. Sunday (Mother’s Day), they went to visit his grave at St. Peter’s Cemetery in Mendota. It’s across the river from the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport and overlooks the Minnesota River Valley. “What little boy wouldn’t want to watch airplanes take off and land every day,â€? Stephanie said. The couple is planning to formalize Dane’s Closet. They want to achieve non-proďŹ t (501c3) status. That status will allow them to seek donations from larger corporations. More toys can allow Dane’s Closet to bring joy to more children. “Dane’s life is making a big difference in peoples’ lives,â€? she said. “This is his legacy.â€?

Kiss your future goodbye and do the right thing: serve your country and ďŹ ght for the freedom of America.â€? Jensen tells the story of Del Schultz, a Marine who served in World War II.

School District (continued from page 1) backed the proposal during informal talks with the city. Laager said Chevalier’s credibility in the community makes the plan doable. Another facet of reorganizing Belle Plaine Community Education is adjusting the responsibilities of the position Pandy Anderson currently holds. She’ll be retiring at the end of the school year. The new position will take on more of a communications focus. The new staff member will have less clerical work to perform and more work using electronic social media and other communications touting the district’s academic pluses, work that will attract more students to Belle Plaine schools.

district’s investment in technology into their daily classroom work. Laager envisions an intense program where the person holding the new director of technology integration position works intensely with several teachers over a 10-week period to bet-

ter use of software like the district has purchased to beneďŹ t a balanced literacy focus. The person’s work will be in classrooms. It will be focused on using software to enhance education and not about how to make hardware function, he said.

BELLE PLAINE HERALD, BELLE PLAINE, MINNESOTA

Thirty Years Ago This Week

Blastoff Members of the Belle Plaine school system’s Young Astronauts Club held rocket blastoffs from a make-shift launching pad at the elementary school playground in the spring of 1986. Each of the club’s 23 members successfully test-fired a rocket they had made from kits. The students were learning about space ventures and rockets under the tutelage of Mrs. Dave (Phoebe) Einertson, who was the club advisor. Parents and other citizens were organizing in Belle Plaine to see what could be done to reduce the amount of drug and alcohol abuse by school-age children. A meeting at the Civic Center on May 6 brought out nearly 40 people to discuss the chemical abuse issue and hear talks by officials in the law enforcement and educational fields. The Public Utilities Commission (PUC) set the proposed metro phone rate for Belle Plaine at $15.20 per residential subscriber, lower than what had been anticipated and the same as Jordan. For Belle Plaine, this would be a $7.20 per-home increase over the present residential charge of $8 per home per month. The PUC would be sending ballots to each telephone subscriber around June 9 to vote on whether or not the service should be implemented here. Voters of the Belle Plaine School District would go to the polls on May 20 to elect two persons to the Belle Plaine School Board from a field of three. School Board Member Joanne Johnson was seeking a fourth three-year term. Also running were Noreen (Nicki) Nagel and Warren Wolf. Hampered by heavy intermittent rains over the past week and a half, most farmers in the area were impatiently waiting for a dry spell to plant spring crops. Scott County Agent Dick Hart on May 13 said that less than 4 percent of the corn, compared to 20 percent the previous year, had been planted in Scott County. “Usually, we say that corn needs to go in by May 15. If it gets much later than that we begin to lose yields,” Hart said. Even with persistent rains, the Minnesota River started dropping and that Tuesday was the first day in almost eight weeks that the river crossing at Blakeley was open. The first annual City-Wide Garage Sale was pronounced a huge success by Jim Steffen, chairman of the chamber of commerce-sponsored event.

There were 56 homeowners and 25 downtown businesses signed up to take part in the promotion. The BPHS baseball team split two games that week, losing to Norwood 10-0 and beating Jordan 5-3. Against Jordan, Jeff Bruder got the win on the mound, his fourth of the year, and had a RBI double. The Tiger softball team fell to Norwood 8-7. Jenny Witt had two triples and three RBI for the Tigers. Also that week, the Tigers upset Jordan 7-3. Jenny Daugard and got the win. The Belle Plaine town baseball team improved to 2-0 on the young season with a 9-8 win over Carver in 10 innings. Jeff Miller had a three-run homer for the Tigers. Jeff Fogarty had the game-winning RBI.

60 Years Ago (1956)

Edwin Stier and Orison Hahn were elected to the Belle Plaine School Board. Hold-over members of the board were Urban Hessian, Arthur Laabs, Jay Bailey and Eugene F. O’Brien. Many relatives and friends helped Mr. and Mrs. Howard L. Crosby of Blakeley celebrate their 25th wedding anniversary. Under the sponsorship of the Auxiliary to the A.O.H., the Barbara Brow studio of Minneapolis was open to a school for dancing lessons. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Schoen announced they would close their hamburger shop for a few weeks while they prepared their cabins at Pearl Lake, between Kimball and St. Cloud, for occupation. Emil Ashauer, general chairman of the July 4th celebration, announced that some of the activities for the two-day celebration would be: band concerts, baseball games, bingo, pony rides, horseshow and an Albrecht Attractions show. Anthony Dressen, 28, formerly of Belle Plaine and living in Shakopee, miraculously came

through an incredible accident. A pickup truck passing his car cut in too close and the bumpers of the two vehicles locked. Dressen’s car went out of control, jumped the center island, tipped over, skidded 200 yards, rolled over the island and finally stopped. Dressen climbed out of the overturned car none the worse for his hair-raising experience. Little Cynthia Lawrence, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. James Lawrence, died suddenly while at the doctor’s office. She was 2 1/2 years old. All the members of the Jack Teschendorf family gathered at their home for a reunion. The group included four generations. Mike Casey, wildlife field supervisor, was making a check on the possibilities of getting two of our “Wetlands” – Rice Lake and Carr’s Lake – under state control. Both were considered waste areas but could be converted to wildlife use. Mr. and Mrs. Fred L. Schuldt Sr., St. Paul, celebrated their golden wedding anniversary with many relatives and friends. They were married at Trinity Lutheran Church, Belle Plaine. Belle Plaine music students made a commendable showing at the state music contest. Receiving “A” or superior ratings were Paul Tillquist, Karen Purington, Carol Stoppelmann, Shirley Druke, John Ploetz and Eileen Walsh. That year’s junior prom was described as the most successful ever held. The much larger facilities of the new school building made that possible. The banquet was held in the dining hall and the dance in the auditorium. The theme for that year’s prom was Memory Lane. About 65 guests, including relatives and friends of Mr. and Mrs. Art Kerkow, helped celebrate their silver anniversary at the American Legion Hall, Arlington.

90 Years Ago (1926)

A Boy Scout troop was organized in Belle Plaine with J.A. Mohrbacher as scoutmaster. Robert Anderson and Eugene Johnson were assistant scoutmasters.

At the meeting of the Derrynane-South Belle Plaine Farmers Club, Wm. Sharkey Jr. was awarded a gold medal by County Agent John Sheay for winning third prize in the statewide 4-H lamb club competition with 1,000 other boys throughout the state. Dr. F.J. von Bohland and Dr. Chester J. Olson, who had been associated in medical practice, dissolved their partnership, with Dr. Olson taking over the suite of offices occupied by the partners. Wm. H. Egan, native of Faxon Township and for 35 years in the grocery business, disposed of his New York Tea Co. and retired. He retained ownership of the old Egan homestead in Faxon. Elizabeth Blaha completed her three-year course of nursing training at St. Mary’s Hospital, Rochester. At the Lexington church took place the marriage of Miss Agnes Retka of that parish and James Sullivan of St. Thomas. The couple established their home on the groom’s farm near St. Thomas. After a lifelong residence in Belle Plaine, Frank Schmitt died at the age of 50. His funeral was held from St. Peter and Paul’s Church. The junior class banquet was held at the Hotel Oxford with the seniors as guests of honor. Viola Mahlmann gave the address of welcome and Adolph Kulisheck responded for the seniors. At the home of the bride’s parents in St. Paul took place the marriage of Dr. C.W. Zaun, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Zaun of Belle Plaine, and Miss Helen Barlow of St. Paul. An audience of 800, which included 150 no-ticket youngsters, saw Ed Eckardt’s team open the baseball season in Belle Plaine and defeat Green Isle 19-4. Conrad and Philip Holmberg, sons of Rev. and Mrs. Holmberg of West Union, were to graduate June 3 at G.A. College, St. Peter. Mr. and Mrs. Tony Bloedel, then located at Sibley, Iowa, were visiting relatives and old friends in the Blakeley, Henderson and Belle Plaine areas.

120 Years Ago (1896)

The Belle Plaine business group considered favorably a proposition from outside to erect a merchant flour mill here. A committee was named to look up a site and see how much bonus could be raised. The borough council named Jos. Fisher street commissioner, passed a curfew ordinance, prohibited ball playing on the streets and fixed wages for street work at $1.12 a day for man, $2.50 for team. The steamboat excursion sponsored by the band was not a success. The boat “Daisy” had to fight strong headwinds and didn’t reach Le Sueur until 6 p.m. and did not return that night. The large crowd of excursionists had to find quarters in Le Sueur for the night. The Henderson-Arlington county seat fight was waxing very warm. Each side got out injunctions against whatever the opposition did.

Filing Period for This Year’s Elections Begins Next Tuesday Four of the five seats on the Belle Plaine City Council, including that of Mayor Mike Pingalore, are up for election in 2016. The other three seats are those of council members Cary Coop, Gary Trost and Henry Pressley Jr. The mayoral term is for two years, while Coop’s and Trost’s terms are for four years. Pressley’s term is for two years. Pressley was appointed to the council this past December to replace Scott Schneider, who resigned after he announced he was moving to Shakopee. Schneider had three years left on his term at the time of his resignation, and the council, as required by state statute and the city code, conducted interviews for the vacant position. Pressley, who was previously chair for the city’s planning and zoning commission, was selected from the pool of candidates to fill the vacancy until the next city election. The two-week filing period for the mayoral and three city council seats will begin at 8 a.m. Tuesday, May 17 and end at 5 p.m., Tuesday May 31. You can file at Belle Plaine

City Hall, 218 north Meridian Street downtown. Offices will be closed Monday, May 30 in observance of Memorial Day. If more than two people file for either Mayor Pingalore or Council Member Pressley’s seats, a primary will be held Aug. 9 to reduce the number of candidates to no more than two for each seat. A primary will also be held Aug. 9 for Coop’s and Trost’s seats if more than four people file for those jobs. Also up for election this year, the filing period for which also begins next Tuesday and continues through May 31, is the District 1 seat held by longtime incumbent Joe Wagner. District 1 is comprised of western Scott County, which includes the cities of Belle Plaine, Jordan and a portion of New Prague. Among the many townships in the district are Belle Plaine, Blakeley and St. Lawrence. The entire Minnesota House and Senate seats are also up for election in 2016. Belle Plaine’s state legislators are Rep. Bob Vogel (R-Elko New Market) and Sen. Kevin Dahle (DFLNorthfield). The filing period for those offices also starts next Tuesday.

sible prosecution of Benitez. But Benitez’s decision to accept the agreement allowed for sentencing to move forward Friday. According to the charges against the two men, Vergara and Benitez entered Olander’s house on Homestead Road in San Francisco Township on April 9 or 10, 2015. They are charged with beating Olander and ransacking his house. They allegedly stole items that include $2 bills, old silver and silverware, a Bible, and two $1,000 U.S. Savings Bonds. Olander, 90, was found dead April 11 when a neighbor went to the house to check on him at the request of one of his relatives.

taining a shotgun, duct tape and rope. The criminal complaints say they entered through an unlocked rear door. Olander was sleeping on his couch when he was attacked, according to the criminal complaints. They covered him with a blanket and tightly bound his hands with duct tape. They hit his head and body with the shotgun, according to the criminal charges. The two men fled the house, the criminal charges state, leaving Olander bound and bleeding while they fled back to the Twin Cities.

Charges

According to the criminal complaint, the two men allegedly beat the retired farmer and bound his hands and feet with duct tape. His feet were freed when deputies arrived at the house and the bloodstains on the floor indicated Olander was bleeding profusely while struggling to free himself. Deputies found shoe prints belonging to a pair of Crocs and Adidas shoes in the house. A citizen cleaning out an apartment where Benitez previously lived in St. Paul led police to the two men. The citizen found the two U.S. Savings bonds bearing Olander’s name tucked in a Bible written in a European language. The citizen called police after checking Olander’s name on the Internet and learning he was the victim of a murder in Carver County, according to the charges against Benitez and Vergara. Benitez was arrested at his place of employment May 9, 2015. When he was taken into custody, he was wearing a pair of Crocs shoes supposedly matching the shoe print found in Olander’s house. Vergara was wearing Adidas shoes when he was arrested the following day, according to the criminal complaint. Vergara had previously worked for Olander, painting his house and shed within the past year, Commander Paul Tschida of the Carver County Sheriff’s Office said. Vergara had been in the house to use the bathroom. Olander provided Vergara water during breaks from his work. They believed, the charge states, Olander would be an easy target because he was old, lived alone and had money. The two men allegedly arrived at his house wearing hooded sweatshirts to hide their identities and carried a black bag con-

Anna Amos of St. Peter was the individual medalist with a round of 82, which was five shot better than her nearest foe, Josalyn Abbott of Eagan. Belle Plaine’s Lambrecht was tied for third bast overall as she carded an 89. Other Tigers on the course were Maddie Hartmann (99), Caitlin Preusser (112), Kaitlyn Siegle (127), Kiersten Skelley (131) and Ali Davis (136). Invitational at Glencoe Jordan was the only squad to keep its best four scores under the 400 mark as it easily won last Wednesday’s 18-hole invitational hosted by Norwood Young America at Glencoe. The Jaguars finished with a score of 388, well ahead of runner-up New Ulm’s 416. Rounding out the field were Howard LakeWaverly-Winsted (440), Belle Plaine (442) and Glencoe-Silver Lake (454). Lambrecht just missed out on top individual honors as her round of 85 was just one shot behind Nicole Schrader of Jordan. Other Tigers on the course were Hartmann (105), Preusser (121), Daisy Vinkemeier (131) and Davis (142). MRC at Glencoe Jordan captured its second MRC seasonal meet in as many outings at soggy Glencoe this past Monday with a team score of 192. Belle Plaine was next in the nine-hole meet with 213, followed by LS-H (226), Mayer Lutheran (246) and Tri-City United (277). Lambrecht topped the field individually with a score of 45, one stroke ahead of Jordan’s Schrader. The other Tigers on the course were Hartmann (50), Preusser (54), Skelley (64), Vinkemeier (64) and Davis (68).

Sibley East/Norwood Young America (208). Jake Pieper of Jordan was the individual medalist after finishing the nine-hole event with a score of 37. Jake Pingalore had the Tigers’ best score, a 43.

edly offers you things you’ve never seen before, and as such, typically goes opening night. Long-time veteran catcher Pat Schultz took the starting nod on the hill, working five innings of four-run ball. A favorite story of Tiger lore had a player suggesting that our team needed a closer, then immediately following up that he was that solution. Perhaps that’s how the ninth inning went down, when Manager Mike Schultz entrusted a threerun lead to his other brother, Matt Schultz. And sure enough, the homerless veteran produced a 1-2-3 ninth inning, including two punchouts. St. Benedict got on the board immediately after loading the bases behind a pair of Tigers errors and a walk in the first inning. Two would score, but the locals answered in their first atbats of the new campaign behind similarly sloppy play from the Saints. After the Saints plated two more in the fourth, the Tigers once again answered to even the contest at 4-4. The key blow was a triple from leadoff hitter Travis Latzke, who soon after scored on a wild pitch. Belle Plaine took the lead for good with a pair of runs in the fifth, with what used to be called the “game-winning RBI� coming on a sacrifice fly from No. 9-stick Jonny Vinkemeier. Vink also singled and walked, scoring a run. Latzke was KCHK Radio’s Player of the Game thanks to his 3-for-5, two run, RBI triple and a steal performance. Latzke also toed the rubber in the eighth inning, loading the bases before striking out the side to leave them full – let’s call it a hold. Four Tigers made their town team debuts: Cameron Klehr, Mitchel Stier, Ryan BremsethVining and Luke Narveson. Bremseth-Vining popped his first big league hit, while Narveson stole a base. Shakopee 10, Tigers 0 Your hometown nine, and noone else, travelled to Shakopee to take on the Indians, hoping to possibly keep the game close and maybe even extend the game past seven innings. This didn’t seem hopeful as the Tigers are 0-4 against the Indians in the last four years, with a 55-2 run differential. Belle Plaine battled hardish and came away with a solid 10-0 loss. Matt Schultz started on the mound and went six innings, giving up eight runs. Just another quality start against a Class B team for the softthrowing righty. Manager Mike Schultz pulled out all the stops and caught the whole game, while several other players played out of position. Zac Dahlke, Matt Ruehling and Wes Sarsland – aka Murderer’s Row – each had a hit, accounting for all of the Tigers’ offense of the day.

From the Archives: May 5th, 1956 BPH: Paul Blaha sold his 160-acre farm seven miles south of Belle Plaine to Bernard Retka of St. Thomas. Blaha’s selling price was $52,000, which averaged out to $325 an acre, the highest per acre farm sale in this area. FROM THE ARCHIVES: BPH May 5, 1926: The first actual work on the long-argued Judicial Road from Belle Plaine to St. Thomas finally started. The best I remember about Mother is that I remember. The last weekend in February of 1952, we were in the kitchen of Grandpa and Grandma Pexa’s Lake Pepin farmhome. Mother and Grandma were washing clothes, the scent of Hilex heavy in the air, Mother was wearing her two-toned purple dress, I remember laying in the oval wicker basket Mother had just brought from the basement and set on the floor. Mother held the bridge of her eyeglasses while she puffed on the glass part, while she wiped them dry as she glanced out the kitchen window, then down at me. It wasn’t a happy look, or an unhappy look, just a look. Years later, my Uncle Eugene questioned me on what I remembered of that time. He said “Grandpa Burns was helping your Dad fix the well, your Mother would bring the dirty clothes over to the farm and Ma would help her wash them. That was the week before Mother passed on March 7, 1952. Have a good week, folks.

Husband of BPHS Graduate Killed in Wrong-Way Crash Lee Waltner, 39, husband of 1995 Belle Plaine High School graduate Katie (Tesch) Waltner and son-in-law of Ron and Luann (Belter) Gordon, was killed in a head-on crash on April 15 near Sioux Falls, S.D. Waltner’s daughters, Unity, 9, and Aly, 8, were seriously injured but were expected to survive. The family lives in the Twin Cities. Also seriously injured in the crash was an 18-year-old Sioux Falls man, Jeffrey Kaubisch, who was driving on the wrong side of Highway 42 when the crash occurred at about 8:30 p.m.

(continued from page 1) would include a future vertical expansion of the clinic. The city council in 2015 okayed a purchase agreement stating the city will sell the city-owned site to Ridgeview for $1 provided the complex is indeed constructed. The property is valued at approximately $250,000. “The proposal is at the development stage for review purposes. This is the most consequential review stage,� reported Belle Plaine Community Development Director Cynthia Smith-Strack. Included in the mix is the preliminary plat, which will be open to public input at next Monday night’s hearing at Belle Plaine City Hall. Representatives from Ridgeview, including Vice President John Prondzinski, will be present to answer questions. The senior care center is proposed to be constructed over a 36-space underground parking facility (there will also be 167 surface spaces) and 21,975square-foot foundation. The site is proposed to be accessed from Commerce Drive West. “The city engineer conducted traffic analysis indicating the streets adjacent to the development are adequately sized to support the development,� Smith-Strack reported. Her report added that water and sanitary sewer mains will extend onto the property with separate services to the clinic/ wellness and housing centers.

CARDS OF THANKS Many thanks for your cards and attendance at my 93 birthday. rd

Irene Kahle

See For Rent ads & Memorial on Page 8

A “Heart of Heartsâ€? Thank You! Belle Plaine is a special place with many caring persons calling it home. I am ďŹ nally home after 7 months in various hospitals, clinics, etc. Home is the outcome and not the intent of this message. I want to pass a sincere thank you to all for the prayers, encouragement, visits, cards, owers, etc. over the course of my being away. Being home in Belle Plaine is in itself a great booster while recognizing I have a few hills left to climb. Special appreciation and love to my dear wife Carman and our entire family, I am so blessed. Also, the prayers offered on my behalf by the congregations of our extra-ordinary church community during Sunday and/or special services. Obviously prayer was effective and much appreciated, another true reection of the genuine fabric of Belle Plaine. As the words of Peter DeVries (American writer) so appropriately states: “We are not primarily put on the earth to see through one another, but to see one another through.â€? Each of you have seen me and our family through these difďŹ cult days. In appreciation, Gerald J. Meyer (aka Mize) & family PS: See you at the ball park

It is up to the individual to decide when to begin receiving Social Security benefits. A person can take a reduced benefit as early as age 62. Or, a former employee can claim a full benefit at what the Social Security Administration considers to be full retirement age, which, for example, is 66 for anyone born between 1943 and 1954. Otherwise, a person can wait until age 70 for yet a larger benefit. Bear in mind that, once you elect to receive a reduced benefit, you remain at that level for the rest of your life (with normal cost-of-living increases). The longer you are apt to live, the more you benefit from waiting for the larger check. The current generation of retirees is more likely than the last generation to have active retirement years filled with a mix of travel, sports, and education. How will you spend your retirement years, and how can you fund those years? Social Security may fill only a limited amount of your financial demands.

Tigers Take Fall Down MRC Standings by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine High School softball team resumed what has so far been a Jekyll and Hyde type of season. Following a four-game winning streak in which it outscored the opposition 38-5, the Tigers last week lost three Minnesota River Conference games by a combined tally of 21-3. Included were at home against Jordan Wednesday 4-0 and both games of a doubleheader at Norwood Young America (10-2 and 7-1) on Thursday. Belle Plaine’s nonconference game at St. Peter Monday was called off due to wet grounds. It will not be rescheduled. The Tigers, 2-5 in the MRC, 5-6 overall, were scheduled to host Mayer Lutheran in a MRC game Tuesday after this edition of the Herald went to press. Up next after today’s make up in St. Peter will be a couple of conference road games at Tri-City United 5 p.m. this Thursday and at Sibley East 7 p.m. next Monday. Belle Plaine will close the MRC season when it hosts conference-leading Le SueurHenderson in a doubleheader starting at 4 p.m. next Tuesday. Jordan 4, Tigers 0 The Jaguars pounced on the Tigers early, scoring three runs in the top of the first inning and one in the second and they would need no more en route to a 4-0 victory last Wednesday in Belle Plaine. Jordan also blanked Belle Plaine 2-0 in the season opener April 12 in Jordan. Pitching both those shutouts for the Jaguars was Paige Pitlick, who this time around surrendered just six hits and three walks while striking out eight. The Tigers had opportunities to score runs, but like on April 12, could not come up with the clutch hits. Kaylee Hentges and Elizabeth

Tigers Alone in First Place by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine High School baseball team continued its winning ways as it won three more games last week, sweeping a twin bill at Norwood Young America Thursday by scores of 10-3 and 6-3, and bested Hibbing 14-2 at Tiger Park Friday. This past Monday’s Minnesota River Conference game at home against last-place Mayer Lutheran was postponed and will be made up at a later date. The Tigers, 5-1 in the MRC, 12-1 overall, were scheduled to host Jordan in a MRC game Tuesday after this edition of the Herald went to press. The Tigers entered the contest with a one-game lead over the Hubmen in the MRC standings. Tigers 10, NYA 3 A four-run sixth inning followed by a five run seventh broke open a tight game as the Tigers bested the Raiders 10-3 in the first of two games Thursday at NYA. A two RBI double by Aiden Ladd highlighted the sixth inning. NYA responded with three runs in the bottom half of the inning to make the score 5-3 before Belle Plaine batted around for the second inning in a row in the seventh to put the contest out of reach. Ladd finished the game with three RBI, while Luke Narveson (one RBI and two runs scored), Ryan Bremseth-Vining (a hit and two runs scored) and Mitchel Stier (two RBI) were the other offensive leaders for the Tigers. Wes Sarsland had

Belle Plaine’s other RBI and scored a run. Brody Curtiss started on the hill and got the win. He hurled five shutout innings, allowing one hit and a walk. He struck out seven. Jon Vinkemeier pitched the last two innings, giving up three runs (one earned) on three hits and a walk. “Brody Curtiss had another strong outing on the mound,” said Tigers coach Pat Schultz. ”We didn’t get as many big hits as we would of hoped for but the guys took a lot of good at-bats and made the Norwood pitchers work, drawing 10 walks and hit-by-pitches. Overall, we played a good game with some nice defensive plays and solid starting pitching.” Tigers 6, NYA 3 Again, the Tigers never trailed in Thursday’s nightcap, tallying two runs in the second inning, one in the fourth, one in the sixth and two in the seventh to double up the Raiders 6-3. NYA scored single runs in the third, sixth and seventh innings. Vinkemeier had a big day at the plate with three hits, including a double and four RBI. Sarsland, who was the winning pitcher, aided his cause with a triple, RBI, stolen base and run scored. Narveson, Ladd, Nathan Herman, Curtiss, Stier, Carsen Ladd and Bremseth-Vining all added a single. Sarsland pitched the first 4 1/3 innings, allowing one run along the way. Clayton Meyer surrendered two runs in a couple of innings of relief before Stier

came on to get the save with a pair of strikeouts. “This was a fun game to be in Nate Loegering, second from left in red, was a member of the Tigers’ 4x800 relay at Mankato and we had a lot of guys step East Thursday. up,” Schultz said. “Sarsland threw well before giving up a couple of walks in the fifth and Meyer did a great job coming in relief and getting out of the jam. He ran into trouble in the seventh before Stier came into a very tough situation with the bases loaded and the winning run at the plate, but did a great job getting two straight strikeouts to end the game. “Jon Vinkemeier had an awesome game at the plate with three clutch, two-out at-bats,” Schultz continued. “We have a very balanced lineup and it was nice to see the bottom half be on base all game with all six runs being scored by our 5-9 hitters. These were two nice wins against a solid MRC opponent.” Tigers 14, Hibbing 2 Ladd smacked a grand slam home run and drove in six runs in all as Belle Plaine hammered Hibbing by a dozen runs Friday evening at Tiger Park. The Bluejackets, who reside in the faraway Iron Range Conference, had a very short-lived 1-0 lead when a walk, ground ball and a single produced one run in the top of the first inning off Tiger starter Stier. Belle Plaine countered in the bottom of the first with a pair of runs via a two-RBI single by Herman.
