Tigers Sink Teeth Into State Title for First Time in Program History Top-Hitter Returns to School Monday on Crutches

by Dan Ruud Celebratory, chaotic, emotional and concerning are several words that can be used to describe the conclusion of Saturday’s Minnesota State Class 2A volleyball championship at Xcel Energy Center in downtown St. Paul. One other word is “first.”

The Belle Plaine High School volleyball team, which had not gotten past the semifinals in eight previous state tournament appearances, went the distance this time around to bring home the program’s first state championship. The Tigers, the No. 1 seed, defeated unseeded Perham 3-0 Thursday, defending state champion and No. 4 seed Stewartville 3-1 Friday and No. 2 seed Concordia Academy 3-0 Saturday, capping off a state championship season record of 32-3.

As for celebratory, chaotic, emotional and concerning, they all unfolded just before, during and after Belle Plaine’s final point for the championship Saturday.

Belle Plaine’s victory celebration following Saturday’s state championship match became subdued some when head coach Cassie Koch walked past her players to go see to fallen Tiger Mariena Hayden, who seconds earlier had recorded match point. The rest of the team, realizing the situation, cut short their immediate celebration. injured her knee on the play served for the victory but the elimination.

Belle Plaine Community Development Director Cynthia Smith Strack reported that no major interior or exterior modifications to the building are planned.

In a related action item, the council unanimously approved a city revolving loan fund (RLF) request by Angelina and Ryan Gorman to assist in the funding with leasehold improvements and equipment purchases for an infant and toddler day care facility at the current Rainbow Discovery Child Care site at 617 East Main Street.

Community Thanksgiving Service Next Tuesday Night at Redeemer Lutheran

The annual Ecumenical Community Thanksgiving Service will be held at Redeemer Lutheran Church 7 p.m. on Tuesday, Nov. 24. The church is located at 14226 West 280th Street in rural Henderson (two miles east of the Highway 169 and Highway 19 interchange).

The service is sponsored by the congregations of St. John Lutheran, Our Lady of the Prairie Catholic, First Presbyterian,

NUMBER 47

Number of Applicants for City Council Seat Swells to Seven The list of candidates for the soon-to-be vacant seat on the Belle Plaine City Council reached seven as of late Tuesday morning. The deadline to apply was 4:30 p.m. Tuesday.

Nathan Hvidsten, who applied the previous week, has since been joined by Kenneth Muzny, Joe Lenz, Nickalaus Jensen, Henry Pressley Jr., Leif Tharaldson and Anthony Hetzel.

City Council Member Scott Schneider, who still has over three years left on his fouryear term, is resigning from the council, effective Nov. 20, because he is moving to Shakopee. His final council meeting was Monday night.

On Nov. 2, the council de-

cided to seek applicants for Schneider’s replacement, one of whom will be appointed. Interviews with all the applicants are scheduled for this Thursday night at Belle Plaine City Hall.

It’s possible that whoever is chosen will only fill the seat through this year – that is if the council decides to hold a special election for Schneider’s remaining term at the General Election in November. The council could also opt to hold a special election prior to November, but such a step would be more costly. Regardless of what the council decides, it must (by statute) appoint at least a temporary replacement for Schneider.

It’s been a lot of work and plenty of time waiting, but the owners of Scott County’s only township brewery and taproom have the approvals they need to open the doors for business.

Yesterday morning (Nov. 17), the Scott County Board unanimously approved an application allowing Jeff and Dave Luskey and Kurt Fossen to begin brewing their own craft beer and operate a taproom. The U4IC Brewing Company is located on

County Road 1 (Union Trail) in Blakeley Village. The trio plans to operate a 30-barrel brew house in about 8,000 square feet of leased space within the old creamery building Jeff Luskey told county commissioners the taproom is important because it will allow U4IC to test its products to potential customers.

Ted Kornder, who farms land along Highway 169 in St. Lawrence Township northeast of Belle Plaine, is one of a handful of farmers in the area who left rows of corn standing to form a living snow fence. The rows of corn stalks, along with round bales of corn stalks, are intended to protect the roadway from snow blowing across it this winter. Farmers receive a stipend for participating in the Minnesota Department of Transportation program.

‘Living Snow Fences’ Aim to Keep Roads Safer During Winter On a cold winter day, with a howling wind from the north blowing snow across Highway 169, the road surface can sometimes be difficult to see and navigate.

The Minnesota Department of Transportation has been working for years to provide safer driving conditions on highways like 169 throughout the winter months. This year, at least one area farmer has chipped in to assist.

Ted Kornder of St. Lawrence Township farms land along Highway 169 north of Belle Plaine. He and neighboring farmers, plus many more across the state leave 16 to 24 rows of corn stalks as a buffer between wide-open fields and the highways.

Kornder is one of a handful of Belle Plaine area farmers participating in the programs. The

others include Gary Crosby, Mark and Neil Koepp, and LeRoy Chard.

The program is called “Living Snow Fences.” The Minnesota Department of Transportation has been operating the program for about 15 years, said Dan Gullickson, a forester with Mn/ DOT. Iowa and other northern, snow-belt states have also used “Living Snow Fences” for several years to shield roads from blowing snow and keep them clearer longer.

The latest Mn/DOT figures show 22,000 drivers a day use Highway 169 north of Belle Plaine. South of Belle Plaine, the count drops to about 16,800 vehicles each day.

“We know (Highway) 169 is a very important corridor for moving people between Mankato and the Twin Cities,” Gullickson said.

A Helping Hand

The rows of corn stalks and rolls of corn stalks act as a shield for the highway. With no fences, Mn/DOT plow drivers will clear the road of snow, only to have blowing snows recover the roadway. Packed snow, chemical and refreezing can also lead to hazardous conditions.

“It gets very slippery out there,” said Kornder. “We have plenty of spin-outs and crashes in this area, especially north of here.”

Farmers receive a stipend for participation. Using a program

He was born July 11, 1929 in Belle Plaine. Richard Matthew was the second child of seven to parents, Morris and Kathleen (Lynch) Walsh. After graduating from Belle Plaine High School in 1947, he went to work in the print shop for Donaldson’s department store. Dick proudly served in the United States Army for the next two years.

He was stationed at Fort Jackson in Columbia, SC, where he was a cook and a member of the Cadre. The Army whetted his appetite for fine dining and upon his discharge Dick studied to be a chef.

In September 1954, Dick decided to attend the University of Minnesota and in 1956, he

graduated with a degree in Mortuary Science. He started his 50 year career as a funeral director first with McDivittHauge. In 1970, Dick bought a share of McDivitt-Hauge and 13 years later sold the business, but continued employment until retiring in November 1987.

Loving the passion of the funeral service, he spent another 17 years with Ballard-Sunder Funeral Homes.

Dick had a strong passion for supporting his community. He was a preceptor of the U of M, an instructor for students studying Mortuary Science and gave lectures on grief in schools.

Dick was proud of being involved in the Lions Club. Since June of 1964, he has held numerous office in the club, such as 100 percent president and twice earned the 100 percent secretary award. Dick served on five cabinets and was also elected as District Governor from 1988-1989.

His community dedication expanded serving as a scout master of Troop 331 for 14 years, managing the Christmas tree lot for 18 years. Dick also attended summer camp for 14 years.

A member of the Knights of Columbus in Minneapolis, he also belonged to the American Legion, South Town Exchange Club and the Minnesota Funeral Directors Association. We can’t forget about being a past grand marshal for the Belle Plaine St. Patrick’s Day parade.

Faith was important to Dick and was a long time member of the Church of St. Michael.

When Dick was not working, he found time to enjoy golfing, boating, refinishing furniture, all manner of cooking (particular Oriental) and attending and watching football.

Dick’s great accomplishments were being a dad, grandpa and a husband to Mary Ellen “Bunny” Robel. They married on May 7, 1955 and enjoyed over 60 years of wedding bliss. They were blessed with three sons, Kevin, Jim and Chis. In 1966, Dick and Bunny relocated their family to Prior Lake, from Minneapolis, where they loved living on the lake and spending time at home with family, especially with the grandchildren. In their free time, Dick and Bunny enjoyed traveling, attending district Lion’s Club meetings and the most memorable trip to Ireland, exploring his Irish heritage.

Dick’s legacy is left to be carried on by his loving sons, Kevin (Lisa Swanson) Walsh, James (Lynette) Walsh, and Christopher (Paige) Walsh; grandchildren, Dan (Shannon) Walsh, Tom (Melissa) Walsh, Britney (Josh) Harris, Stephen Walsh, Shannon Walsh and William “Willy” Walsh; two great-grandchildren, Megan Harris and Adalyn Walsh; sister, Eileen (Stan) Effertz; brothers, Jack (Mary Ann) Walsh, Bob Walsh and Tom (LaVonne) Walsh; other loving relatives and many dear friends.

City Council

Memories From 1940 Blizzard

(continued from page 1) City Administrator Holly Kreft reported that as part of the 2016 budget process, staff recommended hiring two additional full-time public works employees (rather than part-timers) but that there did not appear to be a consensus among council members on the timing and number of hires.

“With the pending winter season, it is important to have adequate staffing for snow events,” stated Kreft. *Voted 3-2 to approve a threeyear contract between the city and International Union of Operating Engineers Local No. 49, which represents public works employees. Council members Paul Chard and Gary Trost accounted for the only two no votes. The new contract calls for cost-of-living increases of 2.5 percent, 2.75 percent and 3 percent over the next three years (2016-2018). *Voted 3-2 to approve a three-year contract between the city and the Law Enforcement Labor Services Union. The new contract calls for cost-of-living increases of 2.5 percent, 2.75 percent and 3 percent over the next three years (2016-2018).

Chard and Trost voted no. *Voted 4-1 to approve a 2.5 percent cost-of-living increase for the city’s nonunion employees, excluding department heads, for 2016. Trost voted no.

Council Member Cary Coop requested that department heads be excluded from the resolution to allow time for the council to discuss goals and objectives. A personnel committee meeting will be held on Dec. 7. *Unanimously approved the following appointments of officers within the Belle Plaine Fire Department – Steve Otto for chief 2, and Justin Dean and Rob Selly for lieutenants. Otto was the lone applicant for chief 2 and there were three for the lieutenant positions. *Unanimously approved the purchase of a V plow from Herman’s Landscaping for $4,126 after trade-in of the city’s old V plow, which is used to remove snow from alleys and parking lots. The old plow was purchased in 2002 and Public Works Superintendent Al Fahey said is should be replaced.

The new plow will be mounted to the 2016 pickup truck the city purchased from Matt

Fiction: Above the waterfall by Ron Rash The Insider Threat by Brad Taylor Safe at last by Maya Banks. They say young love doesn’t last, but a girl from the wrong side of the tracks with unique abilities and the hometown golden boy were determined to defy the odds.

For Zack Covington, AnnaGrace--his “Gracie”--was the one. Until one night forever alters the course of their future, when a devastated Gracie disappears without a trace, leaving Zack to agonize over what happened to the girl he loved. As the years pass, his desperate efforts to find her uncover nothing. Now working for Devereaux Security, he stumbles across a painting featuring a special place only he and Gracie would know.

The image is too perfectly rendered for it to be coincidence. His Gracie must be alive. When he finally tracks her down, he is shocked--and heart-broken--to discover the wounded shell of the girl he once knew and still loves.

Nov. 11 Armistice Day Storm Was Surprisingly Strong for Late-Fall by: Eldrid Karnitz My memory of this killer storm is very clear as I became a part of the history that has been told many times.

The day started with a very strong east wind which would indicate that rain was coming, but about 55 for the temperature.

My part is about our family, Dad, Mother and myself.

My dad said we had to get a new battery in the car so we went to Art Splestosters garage.

It was located where the Waddell & Reed Investment office is now.

This was next to the fire station. Well things went pretty slow and by noon we could see some white snow flying, faster and faster, along with the increasing wind.

Mother had groceries from Christian’s store, this was located where Tom Meger had the jewelry store until last month.

We lived about 3 miles north east of town, and as we left town it was becoming almost impossible to see the roads. As we left State Highway 169, we turned onto the township road that is now #59, which goes down to the St. Lawrence State Park. We lived on the first place on the left, above the hill. No, we did not get to the house, but we landed on a huge drift about 3 blocks from the house, so we could not shovel the car out. By now, the wind is howling. You could not get your breath. We did leave the car and walked to the house and then we had to start the fire in the big furnace and also the kitchen stove to boil coffee, now this is all with wood that had been hauled in the basement.

Dad and I started to the barn to get the horses harnessed and get back to pull the car out. He let me steer the car while he sat on the fender driving Fanny and Daisy to pull it back to the barn yard, as this is what it was called if you lived in the country.

Living in the country had many problems that my cousins in town did not have to contend with. We had to feed the livestock and now this became a very difficult chore combined with this blizzard.

To continue, my parents had agreed to rent a room to the local school teacher, this was located along the highway about a half mile to the east. My dad said we had to bring her to the house before nightfall, this now became my job. I pulled the bob sled out of the shed and put a box bed on it, to have a place to carry people. I then got Fanny and Daisy out to hitch

them to the sled so I could set out to bring the teacher back to our house.

By now, all the parents had picked up the students and the teacher had decided to stay in the building. When I knocked on the door, she was very happy to see me. I had her sit on a box that I covered with a large lap robe. This was all before snowmobile suits and to think, no cell phones. I had a large over coat and a winter cap that I could pull over my ears to prevent from freezing them.

Now as we were facing the raging wind on the return, the horses noses were freezing shut and they refused to walk. They would just stop. I tried to holler to urge them but they would just walk about 10 feet and then turn their heads back and stop.

I was forced to get off the sled and take the lines down over my body and lead them back to the house. As I crossed the field, I could follow the shocks of soybeans that now gave me some direction, to help keep my direction toward our farm.

Later as we returned to the house to eat our evening meal we called supper, this teacher, oh I did not give her name. It was Arianna Fandrey. She was from Carver. She came to me and after a big hug she kissed me to say thank you for getting her home safe. I was only 15 and she was 22. I did not appreciate her way as I did not want to be kissed by a girl. I know time changes your mind.

To continue more stories about the losses that occurred from the storm, was the big story near Belle Plaine. Two salesmen who were driving to Mankato to a meeting got near the top of the “Devine Hill” as it was called. (I guess Julia Devine lived on the bottom end of the Hwy. 169. Near the top was the farm of Albert and Violet Trost, this on the left side.

The next farm was also on the

left side about 3 blocks south.

This was the John and Anna Ahrens farm, which is now Mark Koepp’s hog farm.)

As the story is told, one of the salesmen walked to one of the farms to use the telephone to tell the people in Mankato they had become stuck and would be late. If I have this correct, both of the farmers went to tell the men to come to the house to wait out the storm. They refused by saying they would wait for the plow so they could move on. Well, the plow never got through and they both died in the car as they had the motor running. The gas tank was empty so they must have died from the exhaust being blocked up. The temperature dropped below freezing and they were also frozen when they were found late the next day.

So many of the farmers were not ready for this severe blizzard so many turkeys, chickens and cattle were lost due to this storm. We had a large boar pig we could not find for about 5 days. Then as the sun came out, it must have warmed his body and he had lay under about 5 feet of snow and had eaten snow around his body. He was ok.

Today, what a different season and warm weather. As I look out of the window I see we have three large roses that have opened in the past 3 days. Also, my wife Wilmay has a nice row of red geraniums along the east side of the garage. I did cover them one night, but today they are still beautiful.

No, I do not have a book of records, but this is from my memory. I do not like to tell my age, but I was born February 22, 1925, one of the first babies that was delivered by the wellremembered Dr. Herman Juergens. I share this birth of John Halloran, I think he was born in October.

Do not call me with any corrections about the Storm.

Scott County Will Continue to See Extra DWI Patrols Drivers in Belle Plaine and throughout Scott County will continue to see law enforcement officers working patrols dedicated to keeping drunk drivers off the road during 2015 and ‘16.

Based on information from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, Scott County is No. 9 on the state’s 25 coun-

ties targeted for enhanced DWI enforcement. The ranking is based on the number of people arrested for DWI and the numbers of people killed and seriously injured in alcohol-related crashes between 2012-14.

In Scott County during the three-year period, 1,830 drivers were arrested for DWI.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor, The lights burned late at St. John's Lutheran this past week as their faith community hosted four homeless families; fourteen people, including nine children. Over ďŹ fty volunteers, from all of our faith communities, including members of the Knights of Columbus, the Belle Plaine Police Department, the Belle Plaine Fire Association, Oakwood Elementary Teaches and Scott County Court personnel gave their time and treasure to help those who are on the same journey as we are--but ďŹ nd themselves presently struggling. On Saturday a near capacity crowd attended the fund raiser for the local food shelf that feeds the poor every day.

When the news indicates that the world around us seems to be collapsing, we should draw comfort from the fact that we live in a community that is ďŹ lled with loving and caring people. As is shouted at the conclusion of the Dickens novella, commonly read at this time of year, "God bless us, everyone!"

Very truly yours, Dennis Patrick Moriarty Belle Plaine

VFW Auxiliary News

The Belle Plaine VFW Auxiliary has had a busy fall. At our last meeting, we made a donation to Hastings Veteran Home to go towards refurbishing their greenhouse. We made a motion to purchase some winter men’s gloves to donate to the Veterans Home. We also donated to our Auxiliary Presidents project, which is ďŹ nding companion dogs for Veterans. Halloween treat bags were given to the Nagorski children as their dad is deployed at this time.

Our next meeting is this Thursday. We will have a drawing for a chance to win a Life Membership in the National Home for Children. Bring $2 to buy a chance.

On Monday, Nov. 30, the VFW Auxiliary will host Bingo at The Lutheran Home for Make a Difference Day. If anyone can help, please contact us. Also, the December fund-raiser, which is our annual Craft and Bake Sale, will be held during the December Steak Fry. Please watch for a letter in your mail.

Hope to see you this Thursday at our meeting. It starts at 7 p.m.

Dear Editor, The Price of Government continues to fall‌.

Recently, Sen. Kevin Dahle published a column on how the price of government (POG) continues to fall in Minnesota.

I personally ďŹ nd the senator’s rhetoric to be misleading.

First, if you read the Minnesota Management and Budget (MMB) report, you will ďŹ nd that our cost of living is actually higher now than it was in 2009.

The reality is that the price of government has been relatively stable over the last decade, rising and dropping only a few tenths of a percentage point.

Furthermore, Sen. Dahle claims lower cost of government makes things easier on family budgets. His argument is ďŹ ne if you only consider us as numbers on a piece of paper, but families are much more than that. Take a look at your own family budget and ask yourselves if what Sen. Dahle said is accurate. Does it feel like government has done a great job of helping you out? Is it easier to get by now than it was ďŹ ve years or ten years ago?

Second, Minnesota Center for Fiscal Excellence reports that the MMB tracks state and local revenues as a percent of state personal income deďŹ ned by the federal Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA). The average Minnesota resident views this income as what they see on their pay stub. However, it includes so much more referred to as “non-cashâ€? income. Examples of “non-cashâ€? income include employer contributions to retirement and health care plans, beneďŹ ts received from Medicaid and Medicare, and theoretical income from renting out your home. In 2011, Minnesota “non-cashâ€? income totaled $50.4 billion or 21.2% of Minnesota’s total personal income.

Bottom line, the MMB should be measuring the POG in Minnesota by comparing the state and local government revenues to “cash income�. The story would be much more accurate in that the POG does not continue to fall, but rather continues to fail hard working taxpayers across Minnesota.

Lutheran Home Names Debra Wilbright Director of Disability Services Debra Wilbright has been selected to ďŹ ll the newly-created position of director of Disability Services for The Lutheran Home Association (TLHA).

Wilbright has served eight years as the administrator of Hope Residence, which provides services to support and enhance the lives of residents living with disabilities such as Down syndrome, cerebral palsy, autism, ataxia and epilepsy.

The director of Disability Services is charged with growing services for those with developmental disabilities. This

Birth Announcement

includes new campus development and acquisition as well as enhancing current facilities.

Part of Wilbright’s work will focus on what is currently offered at Hope Residence, including assessing the local need for crisis beds and whether Hope Residence could ďŹ ll that need. She will also determine if living spaces at Hope Residence must be updated to reect developments in personcentered care and whether there is demand for additional needsbased housing in the area.

Nationally, Wilbright will evaluate models of care delivery for persons with developmental disabilities. Her goal is to create a service model to address the entire lifespan of those impacted by developmental disabilities and their families. “Often, parents have fears regarding the ongoing care of their child with disabilities, long after that child can no longer reside with them. We want to look at ways to resolve that fear and help the whole family make the decisions that are right for them,� Wilbright said.

Wilbright will remain Hope Services administrator on Residence’s The Lutheran Home Campus

in Belle Plaine. Her duties as director will be an additional role. “The residents at Hope inspire me everyday, and I’m excited to truly make a difference in the lives of more people as TLHA broadens its reach in the disability community,� Wilbright said.

Though she holds a bachelor’s degree in corrections, Wilbright chose to work with individuals with developmental disabilities.

She has 16 years of experience in the ďŹ eld and is certiďŹ ed as a qualiďŹ ed developmental disabilities professional. “Debra’s patience, compassion and genuine concern for others has been an asset to

Hope Residence, and now she will have a chance to share those gifts and her knowledge on a larger scale,â€? said Michael Klatt, president and CEO of TLHA. In an effort to expand spiritual services speciďŹ cally for those with disabilities, Wilbright will work closely with Rev. Joel Gaertner, national director of Jesus Cares Ministries (JCM). Through JCM, he assists congregations in reaching out to people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, their families and communities.

Gaertner is also in charge of spiritual care throughout TLHA as its vice president of Ministry.

BELLE PLAINE HERALD, BELLE PLAINE, MINNESOTA

B.P. Teachers Union-School Board Set for Mediation Monday Negotiators for union representing the Belle Plaine teachers and the school board are headed into what could be a lengthy mediation session Monday (Nov. 23).

Last Thursday morning (Nov. 12), the two sides met for two hours in what figured to be the final set of talks before the closed-door mediation session.

Superintendent Ryan Laager said the board and union seemingly agree on two of the four unsettled issues – the addition of a paid assistant coach for one-act play and maternity leave.

That leaves a proposal to add one additional paid personalleave day to the two personal leave days teachers already have and additional money on the steps and lanes schedule as

the remaining unsettled issues, Laager said.

Teachers receive 12 paid sick days annually but no paid vacation.

The superintendent attended the Thursday session to familiarize himself with the talks and the outstanding issues. He is not part of the district’s negotiating team. Laager said he wants to see the two sides reach a settlement so the district’s focus can shift to improving curriculum and academic performance. “I want us to be able to start building on the good things we have going on in the district,�

Laager said.

Neither side presented a proposal on the compensation, Laager said.

Last month, the teacher’s union declined the district’s proposed

5.459 percent increase over two years. The board made the offer – which amounts to an additional $293,000 for 2015-16 and $295,400 for 2016-17 – with the intent the union can allocate it within the contract as its membership sees fit.

The union’s last wage proposal for 2015-16 and 2016-17 called for $540,483 in new spending the first year and $525,681 in new spending the second year of the deal. The increases are 4 percent in additional wages for teachers as they complete additional education and experience and a 4½ percent increase in the district’s contribution to health insurance annually.

Volleyball (continued from page 8) Tigers 3, Perham 0 The Tigers effectively and quickly swatted away the unseeded Yellowjackets in a 2520, 25-17, 25-18 quarterfinals victory Thursday night.

Mariena Hayden hammered 20 kills, followed by Kaylee Hentges and Dakotah Poitra with 13 and eight, respectively. Taylor Kruger (5), McKenzie Koepp (3) and Danielle Taylor (1) had the Tigers’ other kills.

Kruger had a team-high 10 digs, while Poitra, Hayden and Elizabeth Johnson added seven apiece. Taylor had 45 set assists.

Tigers 3, Stewartville 1 It got a little scary for a stretch but in the end it was a great Friday the 13th for Belle Plaine as it defeated defending state champion Stewartville 2519, 25-12, 20-25, 25-18 in the semifinals.

Despite falling behind 4-0 in the opening set, Belle Plaine appeared to be well on its way to a sweep as it comfortably won the first two sets and was leading the third before Stewartville went on a run and won the set, and then took a 7-2 lead in the fourth set before the Tigers regrouped and closed out the match.

Hayden smacked 27 kills and Poitra added 13 and Hentges 12. Kruger chipped in nine and Koepp four.

Hayden also led the team in digs with 24, followed by Johnson (19), Kruger (14), Poitra (8) and Paige Narveson (6). Taylor had 60 set assists.

Tigers 3, Concordia Acad. 0 Belle Plaine, in its worst start of the season, spotted the second-seeded Beacons an 11-1 lead in the first set. Even the most optimistic of Tiger fans had to feel at least some level of concern.

That sinking feeling went away fast as the Tigers scored 19 of the next 22 points on their way to a 25-20 first-set triumph.

They won the next two 26-24, 25-20.

It was a balanced attack in kills for Belle Plaine as Hayden had 17, including her dynamic championship point, while Hentges had 15 and Poitra 11.

Also recording kills were Kruger (5) and Koepp (3).

Digs leaders were Johnson (16), Hayden (12), Poitra (8) and Kruger (8). Taylor had 48 set assists.

Playing their final high school volleyball match for Belle Plaine were seniors Ally Anderson, Hentges, Koepp and Poitra.

Coach’s Comments “Although we’ve had an extremely successful season, this weekend at the X, you could just feel the pieces fit snugger together each day to complete the most extraordinary puzzle you’ve ever seen,� said Belle Plaine coach Cassie Koch. “The work ethic, determination, focus and relentlessness displayed by this team was remarkable. Even at the largest of setbacks during the tournament, not once did I feel like we may not reach our goal of

a state championship. The kids played their hearts out, and I’m not even sure they still realize how well they played – both physically and mentally. “The most special moments for me this weekend were the players’ reactions to our accomplishment,� Koch continued. “Right past their confident front was a group of girls so humbled, astonished and appreciative of their own performance and experience. That is exactly why this title was so well deserved. It will take years for them to realize how special this particular puzzle was, and how proud they should be of their success. “I want to extend the largest of thank yous to the community of Belle Plaine, the student fans and pep band, the parents of our athletes, the school administration and staff, and any fan rooting for us – your support was through the roof and more comforting and appreciated than you’ll ever know.�

It is up to the individual to decide when to begin receiving Social Security beneďŹ ts. A person can take a reduced beneďŹ t as early as age 62. Or, a former employee can claim a full beneďŹ t 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 beneďŹ t. Bear in mind that, once you elect to receive a reduced beneďŹ t, 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 beneďŹ t from waiting for the larger check.

The current generation of retirees is more likely than the last generation to have active retirement years ďŹ lled 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 ďŹ ll only a limited amount of your ďŹ nancial demands.

out, she gingerly walked back onto the court to be a part of championship point. Despite playing basically on one leg, Hayden smacked a shot that hit the hands of a Concordia Academy defender and sailed out of bounds for the final kill.

The other five Tigers on the court and several others off the bench began celebrating much to the delight of a big and vocal Belle Plaine crowd that made the trip to St. Paul.

Tigers head coach Cassie Koch, a veteran of the program as both a longtime player and coach, would have liked nothing better than to begin celebrating with her players. However, Koch had her sights set on the other end of the court where Hayden was lying on the floor in pain. As Koch walked past the celebration heap, players began to take notice and the initial celebration burst came to a sudden halt as concern and silence took grip of the arena - on court and in the stands.

Hayden remained on her back being tended to near the net as the Tigers and Beacons did volleyball’s traditional post-match handshakes. It wasn’t until the start of the awards ceremony that Hayden was assisted back to the bench area. It was then that several players helped Hayden in making it to the awards lineup, where an emotional group of Tigers, some teary-eyed, received their first-place medals and championship trophy.

The initial on-court celebration burst lasted only a few seconds but the Tigers celebrated well

(continued from page 1) into the night, from the bowels of Xcel Energy Center to the halls of Belle Plaine High School to an outdoor bonfire.

Saturday also marked Belle Plaine’s first appearance in a state volleyball championship match as its list of fifth- through third-place finishes from years past have finally been topped.

Two of the Tigers’ three losses this season came against Concordia Academy and Jordan, both of which were avenged in the postseason. The only other loss came against Eagan, which defeated No. 1 seed Prior Lake in Saturday’s state Class 3A championship. Waterville-Elysian-Morristown defeated No. 1 seed Faribault Bethlehem Academy for the state Class 1A title, making Belle Plaine the only top seed at state this year to win the championship.

Hayden was back at school Monday on crutches as she suffered multiple injuries to her knee, including a torn ACL and meniscus tear, which is one of the most frequently occurring cartilage injuries of the knee.

Hayden, who bumped knees with a Concordia Academy blocker on the second to final play of the match, waited until Sunday morning to go to the doctor because she wanted to be with her teammates the rest of Saturday night, which included a welcome home celebration at the school and a bonfire get-together at the home of teammate Paige Narveson.

Hayden, one of the top players on the basketball team the past couple of seasons, is expected to

miss the entire upcoming hoops season. She recently committed verbally to play volleyball at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas starting the 2017-2018 school year. She said she will be ready to return for her senior volleyball season at Belle Plaine next year, and plans to work exceptionally hard during the rehab process.

“I’ll be ready next year, for sure,” Hayden said.

She added that Saturday’s championship was on the Tigers’ minds all season.

“That was our ultimate goal since the first day of practice.

We all knew what we had to do and worked hard to win it.

We’re all such good friends and some of the girls have been playing together since the third or fourth grade, which made this (championship) more special,” Hayden said.

It was Belle Plaine’s third state team championship in school history and the second this calender year. The girls’ track and field team was state Class 1A champion at the state meet in June. In 1997, the girls’ golf team captured the state Class 1A title.

Key Developer in Cologne’s History Sells to Ohio Home Builder

Hans Hagen Brought ‘Village,’ Academy to City

A key developer who helped transform Cologne into a growing small city is stepping away from the business, selling it to M/I Homes, an Ohio-based firm new to the Twin Cities.

Hans Hagen Homes developed the mixed-use development, Village at Cologne on the south side of Highway 212 after the city approved it in 2005. The proposal started as a 500-plus acre development. Today, about 163 acres of the project awaits construction of houses.

Dean Johnson, Cologne’s contract city planner, said Hans Hagen Homes has dedicated over 17.6 acres to parkland in Village at Cologne. An additional five acres adjacent to the city water tower will be conveyed to the city. The land’s intended use will eventually be a city water treatment plant.

One of the highlights of the development is Cologne Academy, the charter school Hagen built and leased to the school.

It opened in 2007 with 127 students. With Hagen’s assistance, the school has enjoyed three additions totaling over 50,000

square feet. The additions will serve over 550 students in kindergarten through eighthgrades.

Hans Hagen will continue to develop the north and eastern portions of Village at Cologne.

The land, less than 17 acres, is dedicated to commercial projects, said John Rask, a vice president of land development under Hagen retained by M/I Homes.

The single-family homes M/I builds are similar to Hans Hagen Homes. The company has set aside, for now, plans to build homes on a slab, Rask said. He told the Cologne City Council the proposal is not yet ready for implementation here.

M/I Homes started in Cincinnati in 1976. It moved into the Midwest in 2007 with developments in Chicago, Ill. The company also has developments in Texas, Florida, North Carolina and others on the East Coast.

der of Monday’s meeting once again discussing the Fire Relief Association’s pension fund.

Councilor Jeff McInnis argued strenuously for increases to the existing “split-the-pie” structure rather than a more expensive defined benefit that could cost the city more over the long run.

The council will continue to discuss the proposal during a 2016 budget workshop set for Nov. 30 at 5:30 p.m.

In other action at its Nov. 16 meeting, the Cologne City Council: • Paid bills totaling $72,174.87.

• Passed a resolution certifying unpaid utility services from 19 customers totaling $2,544.71 for inclusion on 2016 property taxes. The 19 residents can still pay off the unpaid bills by the end of the year.

• Approved moving Mark Eggers, from a probationary status Firefighter Pension to full-time permanent status The council spent the remain- with Cologne Public Works

TCU Students Charged in E-Mail Threat Case A pair of 14-year-old boys attending Tri-City United schools face felony terroristic threats charges for their part in sending a threatening e-mail late last month.

Le Sueur County Sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputies determined the identity of the two boys by tracing the e-mailâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Internet protocol service, said Sheriff Dave Tietz.

The threatening e-mail was sent to a teacher at the high school.

It was reported to police Oct. 25.

Investigators have not yet released the actual e-mail or details about who was specifically threatened. The e-mail triggered heightened security at the school during the week of Oct. 26. Students were required to enter the building via the main entrance and were subjected to backpack searches during the last week of October.

Victoria Boy Arrested, Charged With Threat to Kill Classmate A teenager from Victoria is in the Carver County Juvenile Detention Center facing allegations he threatened to kill a classmate at Chanhassen High School.

Friday (Nov. 13) at about 7:11 p.m., sheriffâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deputies responded to a complaint of terroristic threats. The victim, a 14-year-old boy in ninthgrade, reportedly received an e-mail earlier in the day while at school. It read, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to shoot you.â&#x20AC;? A boy in his class,

also 14 years old, allegedly sent the e-mail.

Deputies served a search warrant at the suspectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s residence in Victoria just after midnight Saturday (Nov. 14). They seized two laptop computers, a smart phone, and three firearms. The boy was arrested for terroristic threats and transported to the Carver County Juvenile Detention Center where he is being held for court. The case has been submitted to the Carver County Attorneyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office.

A Warm November Day at the Park Three-year-old Brian Otto enjoyed a visit to the playground at Heritage Square Park with his mom, Bethany, and older sister, Sophia, Sunday (Nov. 15) afternoon. Bright sunshine and unseasonably warm weather made the park a popular stop for several groups of children. Temperatures in Belle Plaine the rest of the week are expected to be more typical of November, in the mid- to upper-30s.

Scott County (continued from page 1) pany also brews root beer. Luskey told the board they plan to be open Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Luskey previously said their plan is to create several varieties of ales â&#x20AC;&#x201C; from light summer brews to a dark

The living snow fences use from 16 to 24 rows of corn stalks hoping to keep roadways safer this winter. The Minnesota Department of Transportation wants more farmers along highways like Highway 169 to participate in the program. In the Belle Plaine area, Mark and Neil Koepp, Ted Kornder, LeRoy Chard and Gary Crosby participate in the program.

Roads Safer (continued from page 1) developed through the University of Minnesota Extension and Mn/DOT, the program calculates cost-benefit of a clean, safe highway. The farmerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cost of corn left on the stalk and the money used to mobilize harvesting equipment in the spring, Gullickson said.

For the corn he left standing and the round bales along Highway 169 just north of Sielaff Drive, Kornder said received about $1,600.

Mn/DOT likes the idea of farmers using rows of corn stalks. Gullickson said farmers like Kornder and others in the area can help the agency save money when snowplows donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need to revisit plowed areas or reapply chemicals to keep snow-packed roads clear. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We want to be good stewards of taxpayer dollars,â&#x20AC;? Gullickson said.

The program has not taken off like Mn/DOT hoped it would.

Last year, about 40 farmers shielded approximately 20 miles of state highway. The greatest dearth of farmers leaving their corn standing has occurred around Duluth and Forest Lake along Highway I-35 and also in the Bemidji area, he said.

Gullickson wants to see the program grow. Farmers rotating their fields from corn to soybeans also impacts participation in the living fences program, he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We saw some decreases in the Mankato area,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re seeing increases in the northwest, from Crookston to the Canadian border and in the Rochester area, too.â&#x20AC;?

This year, Mn/DOTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s metro district, especially in the Belle Plaine area, has seen significant growth in participation. He credits the relationships Mn/ DOT plow drivers have cultivated with local farmers.

Ridgeview Adds Senior Housing Complex to Its Plans for Belle Plaine The Belle Plaine City Council Monday night unanimously okayed an amendment to the purchase agreement it made earlier this year regarding land for a clinic Ridgeview plans to construct next year near the new overpass project area.

City Administrator Holly Kreft reported that the purchase agreement, including a $1 price tag for the property, expires Dec. 1. However, Ridgeview has since entered into a formal partnership with The Lutheran Home Association that is proposed to also include a senior

housing center and wellness facility near the site. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This has necessitated an extension to the planning process,â&#x20AC;? stated Kreft.

The amendment extends the closing date for the property to May 1. Kreft said a groundbreaking is still anticipated for May. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They (Ridgeview and The Lutheran Home) are in the process of finalizing an architect for the project and plan to submit applications next month or January,â&#x20AC;? Kreft reported.

Former New Prague City Councilor Seeking GOP Nod to Face Dahle in 2016 Mark Bartusek, former New Prague City Council vice chairman, will seek the Republican endorsement for the District 20 Senate seat to challenge Sen. Dahle, DFL-Northfield, next November.

Bartusek recently moved outside the New Prague city limits and had to vacate his city council seat 17 months early. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I enjoyed serving the residents of New Prague and found it very rewarding. Running for the senate seat is the most intriguing next step in serving the public,â&#x20AC;? he said in a prepared statement. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I feel the biggest issues in state government are spending and the inability of BPH members to work together. My 11/18 asking the strengths include hard questions, holding people 2x6.5 accountable$234.00 whether they are elected officials or employees, and working together as a team.â&#x20AC;?

Bartusek was a New Prague City Council member for 6½ years. He lives outside of New Prague with his wife and four children, two of which are in college.
