Bernard Boateng and Trinity Webb Police Still Looking for ‘Roofing Crowned 2015 King and Queen Crew’ That Stole From B.P. Home The 2015 king and queen were crowned at Belle Plaine High School’s Homecoming Coronation Monday night in the school’s north gym. They are seniors Bernard Boateng and Trinity Webb, the former of whom’s brother, Brandon, was the school’s homecoming king in 2012.

Boateng and Webb were crowned by their respective predecessors, Joe Hankins and Emilyn Siemon, both of whom

are now students at South Dakota State University.

The other king candidates were Marcus Giesen, Paul Nasby, Luke Narveson and Ryan Siegle. The other queen candidates were Ally Fink, Madison Lark, Dakotah Poitra and Cassidy Burkman.

The guest speaker was school librarian Annette Moylan, who recalled that she too was a BPHS homecoming queen candidate on the same stage 35

Queen Trinity Webb and King Bernard Boateng

years ago. She was not crowned queen, rather the 1980 title went to Lisa Fogarty. When the subject of “making dreams come true” came up, Moylan asked outgoing Queen Siemon to come over to near the podium, where Moylan took a seat and had Siemon place a crown on her, the latter of whom played the part by pretending to be surprised. That drew laughter and applause from the candidates and the audience as Moylan became a honorary queen of sorts.

Monday’s emcees were Kali Gorman and Samuel Gavin. The ushers were Kimberly Mohrbacher and Taylor Yahnke.

Numerous homecomingrelated activities are on tap at the school each day this week, ranging from Monday’s coronation to Friday night’s dance.

This week’s home sporting events have the tennis team hosting Tri-City United 4:15 p.m. this Thursday and the football team taking on St. Peter at 7 p.m. Friday. The volleyball team was at home against New Prague Tuesday night after this edition of the Herald went to press. Also Tuesday, the boys’ and girls’ cross country teams competed in a meet at Mankato.

On Friday, members of the cross country teams will take turns relaying Friday night’s game ball from St. Peter to Belle Plaine to be delivered to the football team at Friday afternoon’s pepfest.

Local and area police are on the lookout for two men posing as a roofing crew. They made off with a safe containing property from a Belle Plaine resident this spring.

The men reportedly went to a house on East Prairie Street May 11. They identified themselves as the man’s roofing crew. While one of the men – described as a smooth talker, possibly with a Southern accent, took the homeowner -- into another room, a second man went into the bedroom and carried out a safe which he loaded into a pickup truck.

The safe is about 2 feet by 2 feet and contained financial notes, bonds and cash.

The jewelry included a wedding ring that belonged to the man’s deceased wife, said Belle Plaine Police Chief Tom Stol-

ee.

The truck is described as a newer model extended cab Chevrolet pickup, light tan in color with a wooden rack on the side, said Belle Plaine Police Sgt. Terry Stier.

Through their investigation, police have recovered nearly everything – except about $1,000 cash and the wedding ring. They worked with financial institutions to cancel the stolen bonds and certificates of

deposit and reissue new bonds and CDs. The two men have been sought for burglaries in Baron and Polk counties in western Wisconsin, Northfield, Minneapolis and other communities in southeastern Minnesota, Stolee said.

The two may be father and son, according to police. The younger of the two men has no teeth, police said. His face is sunken, the effect of years without teeth.

Wisconsin deputies had the same two males in their state a week prior. The same scam, stolen safes, money and jewelry were reported.

Stolee is concerned the pair will strike again if not stopped.

Police are also warning residents not to allow door-to-door salesmen or contractors into their houses without adequate supervision.

Scott County Planning $3 Million Fix to Blakeley’s Quarry Creek In the wake of heavy rains and disastrous flooding in Blakeley Township in June of 2014, a large ravine suffered significant washout damage, threatening a county road and potentially depositing tainted storm water into the Minnesota River.

The county is planning a $3 million repair job to a ravine along Quarry Creek, between county roads 60 and 6 (Union Trail/the Blakeley road). Bids on the project are due Tuesday (Oct. 6).

The project will take place in one ravine with two branches.

Although the work area includes about seven acres, much of the work will be along the narrow creek channel in the bottom of the ravine.

The project involves construction of a detention basin in the upper portions of the land above the ravine to slow runoff before it drops down the bluff and the

steep ravine. It also includes stabilizing the channel within the ravine by lining the channel with rock and creating check dams – steps -- to let the water down in a more controlled less erosive manner, said Paul Nelson, administrator of the Scott Water Management Organization (WMO).

Most of the construction will occur on private land. The county and landowners benefiting from the erosion stabilization have agreed to dedicate the land to make the project happen. Dedicated easement rights are their contribution to the project.

The county and the Scott Watershed Management Organization have invested a significant amount of time discussing the issue and potential solutions with the upstream private land owners, according to Lezlie Vermillion, the county’s deputy

administrator. “These land owners are motivated to address the erosion because they know the underlying geology makes the area prime for accelerated erosion, and their property is also being damaged.

Funding is coming from a variety of sources. Before the June 2014 disaster, Scott County highway and WMO pursued the project. Both agencies applied for and received $800,000 from the Board of Water and Soil Resources from the Clean Water Fund (the Clean Water Land & Legacy Amendment). After the June 2014 disaster, an additional $450,000 to $700,000 has been appropriated by the legislature to the Board of Water and Soil Resources for the

Ridgeview’s Clinic Plans Continue

by Dan Ruud Ridgeview Medical Center Vice President John Prondzinski said Monday that as the new bridge over Highway 169 near the intersection of County Road 3 and Meridian Street is being constructed over the next 12 months, so too will Ridgeview’s new medical clinic.

Last Monday night, the city council awarded the bid for the bridge construction and extension of Enterprise Drive to S.M. Hentges and Sons of Jordan at the low bid of $3,179,966.84, which is over $1.2 million below the city engineer’s estimate of $4,387,703.

That also came as good news to Ridgeview Medical Center, which plans to begin construction of its Belle Plaine clinic next spring, at the same time the

bridge over 169 is taking shape just down the southbound lane a short distance from the existing intersection. Ridgeview is purchasing several acres of city-owned property from the city for $1.

Prondzinski said Ridgeview Medical Center is already recruiting physicians for the Belle Plaine clinic.

“We’re very excited (about coming to Belle Plaine),” Prondzinski said Monday.

Because it will be an addition (not a relocation) of Ridgeview’s Medical Center’s growing network of facilities, Prondzinski said the Belle Plaine clinic will be mostly staffed by new employees, not transfers. He said he cannot say at this time how many people the clinic will employ or what

its square-footage will be.

“We will know a lot more in a few months,” said Prondzinski, adding that Ridgeview is currently finalizing interviews with architectural firms for the design of the clinic.

Prondzinski said much of the winter planning will involve working with the city of Belle Plaine on the preliminary and final design plans for the clinic, and how exactly it will be tucked into the site, which is on the northwest corner of Highway 169 and County Road 3.

Val and Barb Miller began bringing in their soybean crop southeast of Belle Plaine Sunday afternoon. The couple expects a good yield from the land, thanks to warm temperatures and timely precipitation. Area farmers will balance good yields against low prices this fall.

Anticipating Bumper Crop, Harvest has Some Farmers in a Quandary The yields some area farmers are expecting on their corn and soybean crops to validate what even non-farmer seemingly knows. It’s been a good summer for growing crops.

“We’ve had timely rains and it hasn’t been too hot,” said Ted Kornder. He and his family grow corn and soybeans. “We only had about four days over 90 degrees.”

Last week, area farmers began brining in their crops. The harvest, weather permitting, will continue in the weeks to come.

Kornder uses some of the corn and soybean crops for his family’s beef cattle operation. The rest is sold on the open market.

Belle Plaine farmer Tim Stier of BTS Farms also sells seed for crops. He said farmers are anticipating corn harvests of 230 bushels per acre, a yield well above previous years. Soybean yields are reportedly in the 5065 bushels per acre range, Stier said. Both yields are well above

‘Blood Moon’

Over Belle Plaine A rare so-called “super moon� or “blood moon� was on display over Belle Plaine’s Veterans Park Sunday night (right).

The reddish hue results from a complete lunar eclipse, with the moon covered by Earth’s shadow. (Above) A series of photos taken in Blakeley shows the progression of the eclipse, starting around 8 p.m. until its peak around 9:45.

Because the moon appeared larger than usual because it was on its closest approach to the Earth. Stargazers will have to wait until January of 2018 for the next total eclipse of the moon.

SCHS Seeks Sponsors for Upcoming Malt vs. Hops Event The growth of local breweries in our state makes it seem like we’ve taken a step back in time when every community boasted about their local brew.

Here is your chance to sample a few of the new local brews, find out what goes into creating a unique beer, and learn about the history of brewing. It’s all about the taste.

On Thursday, Oct. 1, beginning 7 p.m. at Turtles’ 1890 Social Center in Shakopee, guests will enjoy a social hour, followed by a lively presentation

by Doug Hoverson, author of “Land of Amber Waters: History of Brewing in Minnesota.”

The evening also includes the opportunity to capture a snapshot of the event in an “oldtime” photo booth, collect a souvenir pint beer glass to take home, and take part in a very unique silent auction. Proceeds from the event support the Scott County Historical Society.

Sponsorships are available for this event at platinum, photo booth, entertainment, and part-

ner levels with various recognition opportunities. For details and to support the SCHS with a sponsorship, please contact Kathy by phoning the museum or e-mail at kklehr@scottcountyhistory.org, or speak with an SCHS board member.

Whether you are a beer lover, local history supporter, or just like to have a good time, this is the event for you. Purchase a table of 12 for $540, table of eight for $360, or table of six for $270. Individual tickets are $45 for SCHS members and $50 for non-members (must be 21+ to attend). You may purchase your table or ticket(s), by calling 952-445-0378 or online at http://bit.ly/1JtMwQo Turtle’s 1890 Social Center is located at 112 South Lewis St, Shakopee, MN 55379.

New Prague OKs City-School Pool Plans The New Prague City Council recently approved a $1.1 million plan to participate in the school district’s plans for an indoor pool the school district is building.

The city will build a recreational pool adjacent to the school’s lap pool at the Central Education Center campus.

The city plans to shut down its existing outdoor pool. Some residents want an outdoor recreational pool built at the CEC facility, the New Prague Times recently reported. Councilor Amy Jirik said the outdoor facility at the CEC is an ongoing discussion.

Montgomery Plans No Property Tax Hike for 2016 Montgomery city council members recently approved a preliminary property tax levy for 2016 that is not increasing from 2015.

The city’s preliminary levy is about $1.78 million, $1.16 million of which will go to the general fund. The city plans to spend about $622,000 on debt service. The Montgomery City

Council also approved a preliminary general fund budget of $2.175 million.

The 2016 property tax levy can only be maintained or reduced when it is finalized later this year, the Montgomery Messenger recently reported.

Montgomery will set its final property tax levy and budget for 2016 in December.

TCU Enjoying Enrollment Growth

Tri-City United Schools has more students in its hallways each day. But the student population is not as great as it could be, thanks to open enrollment.

In kindergarten through 12th grade, the district’s first-weekof-school enrollment is 1,923 students – an 8 percent increase over a year ago. The district is not yet certain if it is losing more students than it gained via open enrollment for the 2015-

Tri-City United School District, which draws students from Montgomery, Lonsdale and Le Center areas, has seen steady growth since 2012-13.

It had 1,776 students that year, the Montgomery Messenger recently reported. In 2013-14, the district had 1,862 students.

Open enrollment has kept the district’s enrollment from topping 2,000 students. In 201213, TCU saw 510 students leave via open enrollment. It took in 116 students that year via open enrollment.

In 2013-14, the district saw 519 students leave and 129 come to – a loss of 390 students. Last year, the district lost 489 students via open enrollment. It gained 140.

Superintendent Teri Preisler said the district is not yet certain of its open enrollment numbers for 2015-16.

FISH Meeting Aims to Help Build ‘Bridges’ Out of Poverty Reducing the social costs of poverty, strengthening the workforce, and building a more prosperous and sustainable community are goals on which most communities agree.

Process’s Bridges Out of Poverty community support program provides a family of concepts, workshops, and products to help employers, community organizations, social service agencies, and individuals address and reduce poverty in a comprehensive way. Bridges brings people from all sectors and economic classes together to improve job retention rates, build resources, improve outcomes, and support those who are moving out of poverty.

Familes and Individuals Sharing Hope (FISH) is hosting a presentation by the Bridges Out of Poverty organization at its annual meeting Thursday, Oct. 8, 8 a.m. to noon, at Playworks / Link Event Center, 2200 Trail

of Dreams, in Prior Lake.

The Bridges Out of Poverty community support program helps communities by moving individuals from poverty to self-sufficiency, reducing social costs related to crime, poor health, and welfare, strengthening educational attainment and job skills. The program also aims to help members enhance economic development, improve on-the-job productivity, revitalize neighborhoods, and build sustainable communities where everyone can live well.

FISH believe that organizations that participate in the workshop will greatly enhance their ability to achieve their missions, said Jon Ulrich, FISH’s interim director. Registration for the training is free.

Participants are asked to register by Oct. 5. Space is limited.

RSVPs can be called into (952) 440-3600 or emailed to fish@ fishpartnernetwork.org

Free Food Available to Seniors in Belle Plaine Second Harvest Heartland has a distribution location for the Nutrition Assistance Program for Seniors (NAPS) in Belle Plaine. NAPS provides a 30- to 35-pound box of wholesome food – low in salt and sugar content – that may include canned fruits and vegetables, juice, dry and shelf stable milk, American cheese, canned meat, peanut butter or dried beans, cereal and rice or pasta.

This food is available to eligible seniors once a month.

Eligibility is based on age 60 years and older, household size and income.

NAPS is a USDA program that is funded through the Farm Bill. Even though there is plenty of food available, the NAPS program is currently underutilized in Minnesota.

All seniors who are interested are encouraged to apply for NAPS. Contact Second Harvest Heartland at 1-800365-0270 and leave a message that includes your name, phone number and the best time to return the call. A NAPS representative will contact you to assist in completing an application, check program eligibility and provide additional information.

Jordan Schools Won’t Offer Cheaper Memberships to CERC If Jordan School District employees want memberships to the new Community Education and Recreation Center, they’ll have to pay the full going rate.

The joint bowers board of city and school district representatives governing the operation of the new facility recently voted against allowing any discounted memberships to school employees. The issue will be revisited after the 45,000square-foot CERC has been open for a year.

A 10 percent discount would cost $10,000 to $15,000 in operating revenue, said Nate Warden, director of Jordan’s

Community Education. School Board Director Tom Vogel said any discount the school district would enact would impact the city, too.

The district is in contract talks with employees groups and Superintendent Matt Helgerson has been fielding questions about discounted memberships, the Jordan Independent recently reported. Helgerson believes employees should purchase a membership to the facility being built adjacent to the middle school. It will be jointly operated by the city and school district.

Helgerson said the district

couldn’t make an exception and permit one group to purchase discounted membership while not allowing all staff the discount. He said the school district never promised any of its staff discounted membership in the CERC, though Helgerson said assumptions of discounts might have been made.

The CERC will have a fitness center, a three-gym station, an elevated walking/running track, a multipurpose room, access to a community room, and locker rooms.

It is expected to be open this fall.

BELLE PLAINE HERALD, BELLE PLAINE, MINNESOTA

Thirty Years Ago This Week

ily home at Watertown. He was the father of Arthur and Ray Hahn of Belle Plaine.

After a 40-year search for a missing sister, Mr. and Mrs. George Stermel of Delavan, Wis., learned that the girl had been adopted by the Giles family of near Belle Plaine. They came and interviewed the Stoppelmanns, who had acquired the Giles place, and from them learned the missing sister had married and died, leaving a son, then 17, living in Minneapolis.

120 Years Ago (1895)

BPHS Band The Belle Plaine High School band marched down the street as band director Bob Wiley checked the ranks during the school’s 1985 homecoming parade through town.

An electrical space heater that was located too close to combustible material was blamed for a mobile home fire in Belle Plaine that took the lives of two young Belle Plaine brothers.

James Schmeckpeper, 16, and his brother, Charles, 11, were taken by fireman from the back bedroom of their mobile home and transported to St. Francis Hospital in Shakopee, where they were pronounced dead.

Neighbors said their mother, Shirley Schmeckpeper, 36, made several attempts to rescue her children, but was beaten back by flames and smoke. She had fled the trailer earlier with a third son, Chris, 10, to go to the home of a neighbor, where she reported the blaze about 12:30 a.m. Another sister, Judy, 14, was rescued safely by firemen.

Insurance coverage for Belle Plaine schools and for city government could easily rise by 50 percent in the coming year was what insurance agent John Ploetz told the school board and city council. The cause of the higher rates was being blamed on the increase of lawsuits across the state and nation.

The Belle Plaine area experienced a hard frost that Tuesday morning (Oct. 1) following a few light frosts, bringing an end to the 1985 growing season.

The timing was late enough in the season that corn and soybean yields would not be seriously affected in most areas.

Little harvesting had started in the area due to wet field conditions.

Mrs. Pat Schwartz was elected a delegate to the Delegate Assembly of the Minnesota School Boards Association. She was elected to a two-year term.

Mike Raddatz, 14-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Quentin Raddatz, was injured in a farmrelated accident. Mike, who was helping on the Schommer farm, was unloading a silage wagon when the PTO shaft and gear box broke loose from the wagon and struck him. He was thrown airborne and knocked unconscious. Two bones in his left leg were broken.

The BPHS football team dropped its homecoming game to Jordan 21-7. The Tigers had opened the scoring with a nice drive that ended when Paul Pudlitzke connected with

George Schoenborn with an 8-yard scoring pass early in the first quarter. After Jim Buesgens kicked the extra point, the Tigers would not score again.

The BPHS volleyball team improved to 7-0 atop the conference with a 3-1 victory over Le Sueur and 3-0 win over Le Center. Laurie Wolpern had 28 kills against Le Center, while Mitzi Westlund and Deb Zabel both scored 16 service points.

60 Years Ago (1955)

Michael O’Day, about the last of the real pioneers of this area, died at the rest home in Lester Prairie. Born at Assumption, he lived on the place where he was born all the 90 years of his life.

Esther Eliason, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.N. Eliason of Minneapolis, became the bride of Harlan Schultz of Belle Plaine.

Joanne O’Brien, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Richard O’Brien, became the bride of Richard J. Sullivan, son of Mr. and Mrs. J.W. Sullivan of St. Thomas.

The mystery of the grave-like digging was solved. The pits were dug by a soil scientist from Red Wing for the purpose of obtaining samples of soil from various depths for scientific research.

The new grade on the ravine section of the Belle Plaine-East Union road was declared finished. The blind corner at what was long known as the Jack Carter corner, was no longer a blind one. The high, steep cliff at the inside of the curve was cut away.

At the Junior Livestock Show in South St. Paul, Harold Sullivan won the reserved championship with his Shropshire wether lamb, and John Sullivan took third place on other breeds.

The Ruehling families held a reunion at the home of their sister, Mrs. Mary Ahrens, in Shakopee. All six brothers – Andrew, Henry, Paul, Charles, Richard and William – and their families were present, as well as some of their sister’s families.

Rev. Paul G. Judge, who was an assistant pastor at Sacred Heart Church for six years, died

Sibley County Attorney Requests Larger Salary Increase for ‘16 Sibley County commissioners are planning a 2 percent raise for elected officials for 2016.

County Attorney David Schauer has a different plan.

Schauer wants to be paid like his counterparts in neighboring counties.

Schauer’s 2015 salary is $86,351.95. Sibley County plans to pay Schauer $88,078.98 for his eighth-tenths full-time equivalent (FTE) position, a 2 percent increase. If he were a full-time county attorney, Schauer would earn a salary of $110,099.

He wants to be paid over $132,000.

Schauer recently told county commissioners the county attorneys in Scott, Carver, Le Sueur, McLeod, Renville and Nicollet average just under 21 years of

experience, the Arlington Enterprise recently reported. Their average salary is $123,706.

Schauer has 32 years of experience. He believes his salary should be $9,443 higher than the average salary of the county attorneys of the six neighboring counties.

Commissioner Bobbie Harder of Henderson Township took issue with the request. She doesn’t believe her constituents see salaries of elected officials as a priority. Harder declined taking a salary increase for 2016.

Commissioner Jim Swanson of Gaylord said there are times when a county’s ability to pay a higher salary trumps experience and keeping up with neighboring counties pay scales.

The Swiss Bell Ringers were back for their annual visit. Admission to their show was 10 and 20 cents.

The Belle Plaine school School drew $384 from the state as apportionment for pupils attending there.

Ralph and Helen were the gift bearers and received a round of applause from the congrega-

tion after Mass. We wish Ralph many more Happy Birthdays.

St. John’s 150th Anniversary is fast approaching on October 11, beginning with 10 a.m.

Mass. Grace Erie will return to play for this Mass. All former choir members are invited to come sing, including those long ago members from Father Elgar’s time. Rehearsal will be Monday, Oct. 5, and Thursday, Oct. 8, at 6:45 pm.

Humor Corner: The elderly Irish gentleman went to the bar daily and always ordered three shots of whiskey. The bartender asked him if others were joining him.

Oh, no, he said, two shots are for my two brothers in Ireland who told me when I moved to America that I should drink one for them when I go to the bar. This went on for a long time. One day he ordered only two shots, the bartender was concerned. “Did one of your brothers die?” he asked. “Oh no” “I quit drinking.”

St. Thomas by: Loni Graham Upcoming masses at St. Thomas: Saturday, October 3, Mass at 4 p.m. with Father Dave Barrett will be said for Gary and Shirley Rutt, who are celebrating their 50th Anniversary.

Mass is, also, scheduled here in St. Thomas for Saturday, October 10 at 5 p.m. with Fr. Hessian.

Mary and Jim Walker have been on the go. They celebrated their 12th Wedding Anniversary on September 20 by having brunch and enjoying a trip to the Minnesota Arboretum. Last Friday, they enjoyed lunch with Mary’s daughter, Colette and her husband Mike from Tulsa, Oklahoma, who were here visiting for a few days.

Saturday, Mary attended a baby shower for Jim’s niece, Heather Carman-Anderson and her adorable daughter, Paige.

Sunday, they spent a beautiful day with friends Fran and Marv Huwe from Glencoe harvesting grapes and having lunch at The Next Chapter Winery.

The Sportsmen’s camp out night was a gourmet’s delight... pizza sandwiches, pudgy pies, bacon weave, and turds (aka

bacon fattys).

Caroline Tuck was chosen as a member of the 2015 junior royalty for the Le Sueur Henderson Homecoming... and she looks beautiful in blue.

Eric and Brigid Doherty Tuck broke ground on their new house Friday, September 25, 2015. They are building right behind the 110-plus year-old, 2-story square farmhouse. The original home will be removed when the new one is completed. The Tucks were entertained watching Duane Geib, the well guy, and an excavator teaching each other tricks with the “divining rods” (flags) trying to find a water line. “Hilarious!

Apparently stomping the ground after finding the line and counting the stomps for the flags to uncross tells you how deep the line is. “ The Dohertys have been here, from County Tyrone, Ireland, settling in Tyrone Township, Le Sueur County since before the Civil War and here for the heroic defense of New Ulm. James (1836-1902) and Annie Doherty (1846-1911), Frank (1850-1926) and Margaret (1842-1928) are among the first Dohertys laid to rest among our dearly departed here in St. Thomas...and Joe, Ellie, Bridgid folks, the Tucks, including Caroline, Hattie and Henry are still here.

Let’s be careful out there, folks.

Belle Plaine School Board Trims Property Tax Levy for 2016

Quarry Creek (continued from page 1) project.

Control the Flow

The project aims to reduce sediment flowing into the Minnesota River, control erosion and reduce sedimentation in the ravine, protect private land and public infrastructure.

Scott County and the Scott County Water Management Organization want to reduce the sediment impact to County Road 6 at the downstream end of the ravine.

Water flowing through the ravine and erosion within the ravine has frequently dumped large amounts of sediment under County Road 6, Nelson said. The sediment has to be removed several times each year. In June 2014, two storms dropping about 14 inches of rain in the area within a 10-day period.

The deluge resulted in damage to the bridge and the removal of about 14,000 cubic yards of sediment and debris, he said.

The Quarry Creek ravine was already being considered for repairs, but with the 2014 disaster, surveying and design had to be completely redone. Post-storm estimates showed the damage added an additional $700,000 to the project cost.

Prior to the June 2014 event (from 2010 to 2012), approximately 11,000 cubic yards of sediment were removed in an effort to keep County Road 6 open, Nelson said.

“So much sediment is being produced from upstream erosion that the bridge under the road plugs, causing road closures and safety issues and damage to the bridge,” Vermillion said.

In 2013, sediment had filled the channel upstream of the bridge. During a storm, water flowed above the banks of the main channel, flowing along the road ditch instead of the channel, and washed support out from under one of the bridge abutments, which had to be repaired.

A number of ravines in the area have been destabilized because of the wet springs in 2012 and 2013 along with the June 2014 disaster, he said. However, erosion in other ravines does not have the impact to infrastructure that this one does.

Settlement in Sibley-Renville Fiber Lawsuit Ready for OK

Suit Stems From Unpaid Legal Bill; Settlement Amount to Remain ‘Private’

After behind-the-scenes negotiations between lawyers representing Renville-Sibley cooperative fiber optics board and the Minneapolis law firm of Best & Flanagan, LLP the two sides have reached a proposed settlement.

The settlement will be presented to the Renville and Sibley county boards of commissioners and the city councils of the participating cities. The cities include Green Isle and Henderson.

Best & Flanagan filed suit in Hennepin County District Court seeking the fees it claims the fiber optics board promised to pay back in 2012 when the plan to run a fiber optics line between cities and townships in the two counties was first proposed. The law firm was to provide the legal paperwork needed for issuing bonds to pay for the proposed project.

But the initial proposal fell

apart in 2012 when Sibley County commissioners refused to participate. Still, Best & Flanagan claimed they were owed $120,000.

Because the fiber optics cooperative board representing the counties and 11 cities didn’t issue the bonds, it didn’t have the money to pay Best & Flanagan.

When the board issued approximately $8.07 million in bonds for the latest version of the plan earlier this year, the cooperative board planned to pay Best & Flanagan.

The two sides have negotiated a lower fee from the one the law firm claimed in the lawsuit it was owed, one below $100,000.

Joel Dahlgren, an attorney with the fiber optics board, would not say identify the amount of the proposed settlement. The proposed agreement includes a provision the amount is to remain private, even though it will be paid using funds approved by cities and the two counties.

Green Isle City Attorney Ross Arneson updated the Green Isle City Council at its Sept.

22 meeting. He noted the lawsuit Best & Flanagan filed was flawed. The lawsuit was filed against the individual cities and counties, not the fiber optics board. It also was filed against

RUCK’S MEAT MARKET & PROCESSING

Arlington, which did not participate in the original fiber optics proposed project.

“It’s kind of a technical thing,” Arneson said.

Arneson also agreed with the idea the law firm overcharged the fiber board. He believes the fee is based on the $500plus per hour fee the partners can charge. But “worker bees,” Arneson said, perform the background work preparing the legal documents.

“All they do is push the big red button on their computer,” Arneson said. “$120,000 – that’s high even for a bond counsel.”

In other action at the Sept.

22 meeting, the Green Isle City Council: • Paid bills totaling $5,556.08.

• Approved entering into a new agreement for access to an updated state criminal justice computerized information system.

• Discussed the ongoing effort to enforce city ordinance regarding outdoor storage of property and vehicles. Arneson suggested criminal court or sheriff’s action against residents who won’t follow council directives, won’t pay the fines and ignore court dates on the issue.

Although the cut wasn’t quite as large as board members hoped, the Belle Plaine School Board approved a reduced preliminary property tax levy for 2016 Monday evening (Sept.

28).

In a brief meeting, the school board set a preliminary levy for 2016 of $4.74 million – a 1.29 percent reduction. The board had discussed a possible 1.77 percent cut two weeks earlier during a workshop. The school district’s final 2016 levy can only be maintained or reduced.

It will be set in December.

The smaller reduction means the district’s homeowners won’t quite enjoy the $17 drop reduction in the school district’s share of property taxes on a house valued for taxation of $100,000.

The reduction should be closer to $7, said Chuck Keller, the district’s business manager.

The reduction in the preliminary property tax levy is the result of the retirement of a small bond and a restructuring of debt service following the approval of a long-term facilities plan the board approved earlier this summer. The district is planning to reduce its debt service in 2016 by $91,249 – a cut of 2.91 percent.

The reduction in debt service comes in part thanks to $120,000 in debt-reduction aid from the state. The additional 2 percent in per-student aid state lawmakers OK’d last spring does not impact the property tax levy, Keller said.

The district’s general fund – the fund that pays most of the school district’s day-today expenses – is expected to increase by $28,868.82 to $ 1,582,132.51. That’s a 1.86 percent increase.

A $53,834.60 reduction in benefits paid to retiring teach-

121 N. Willow St • Belle Plaine • 952-873-2848

ers hired before 1989 and the shift of $167,449.84 to deferred maintenance helped curb the growth of the general fund levy. Another reduction is the Belle Plaine School District’s share (about $19,100) of lease payments saved by returning programs from the SouthWest Metro Educational Cooperative to member districts.

The school district’s general fund levy of $116,241 is growing by $377.04 – an increase of less than one-half percent.

The overall property tax levy represents about one-fourth of the district’s total operating budget. The rest of the funding arrives from the state in the form of per-student aid.

The reduction in the preliminary levy comes at a time when the 2014 market value of property within the Belle Plaine School District is growing by over 8¾ percent to approximately $969.8 million, according to the auditors offices in the four counties the district serves – Scott, Carver, Sibley and Le Sueur.

Advertising Rules & Regs

The board also gave its formal approval to a new set of rules and regulations regarding paid advertising on district materials ranging from scoreboards to signage in and around district facilities to programs.

“In no instance shall publications accept advertising or advertising images for alcohol, tobacco, drugs, drug paraphernalia, weapons, or obscene, pornographic or illegal materials,” the new policy states.

“Advertisements may be rejected if determined to be false, misleading, or deceptive, or if they relate to an illegal activity

or antisocial behavior.”

Advertisements may be rejected by the school board if, the new policy states, “determined to be inconsistent with the educational objectives of the school district or inappropriate for inclusion in the publication.”

The district will also periodically report the revenue it generates via advertising. The new policy is considered clearer than its predecessor.

In other action at Monday’s (Sept. 28) meeting, the Belle Plaine School Board: • Paid bills totaling $1,597,603.35.

• Rescheduled the board’s Jan. 4, 2016 reorganizational meeting to Jan. 11 at 6 p.m.

• Accept the resignation of Rita Iverson, early childhood screening coordinator.

• Accept the resignation of Alex Krautkremer, paraprofessional.

• Approved Christina Kienlen’s employee leave request.

It is effective through April 11, 2016.

• Approved Andrea Andert’s employee leave request. It is effective Jan. 22, 2016 through March 7, 2016.

• Approve two Belle Plaine residents in kindergarten and second grade attending LeSueur-Henderson schools.

• Passed a resolution supporting SouthWest Metro Educational Cooperative becoming an intermediate school district.

The change, if approved, will give the cooperative greater programming and financial flexibility and access to levy authority. All 10 co-op members must approve the change for it to occur.

• Approved a policy limiting workload limits of special education staff.

State Report Card Shows B.P. Schools Have Room for Growth School Board MMR By the Numbers Will Address The chart shows the point totals area high schools earned for proficiency of groups of students, academic growth, reduction Plans at of an identified achievement gap and graduation rate. Each area October Meeting was scored on a scale of 25 points.

A report on the academic progress Minnesota students is enjoying shows Belle Plaine has some work to do to reach its goals.

The Minnesota Department of Education recently released its MMR reports – multiple measurement ratings – for the state’s schools. A piece of the “Minnesota Report Card,” the report divides proficiency on state tests, academic growth of individual student groups, thee reduction of achievement gaps between groups of students, and graduation rates into four categories. All four categories are measured on a 25-point scale.

The MMR were created after Minnesota received a waiver from the requirements of the federal No Child Left Behind law, according to Keith Hovis, a Minnesota Department of Education spokesperson.

In the proficiency category, Belle Plaine Senior High School received 2.38 points of 25.

The proficiency component of the MMR looks at math and reading scores for each student group in the school. The Department of Education has targets set for every student group that increase each year – they are set based on a goal to reduce the achievement gap by 50 percent by 2017.

Schools that are keeping up with the increasing targets re-

ceive closer to 25 points, and schools that are falling short of the targets receive closer to 0 points.

“Belle Plaine did not meet their targets in the All Students Group or the White student group in math or reading,” said Stephanie Graff, theMinnesota Department of Education’s chief accountability officer.

On the scale measuring growth of student groups from year to year, Belle Plaine Senior High School’s grade was 7.19 points of 25. The senior high’s score for achievement gap reduction was 10.34 of 25.

The low point total for proficiency is in contrast to last year’s round of Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments, where Belle Plaine students were at or just above the state averages in math, reading and science tests last spring.

The district had previously identified the gap between who received free/reK-6 School Menu students duced meal service as a group Parents Welcome Everyday of students as an area it wanted LUNCH to reduce and eventually eliminate.

Belle Plaine Junior High School fared much better in the measurements. It was graded at 25 points for proficiency, 19.79 of 25 points for academic growth of students and 22.86 of 25 points for reducing achievement gap.

Margo Hanson, the Belle Plaine School District’s director of curriculum and assessment, declined comment on the MMR report. She said the school board would address the results and plans for improvement at its Oct. 12 workshop.

By Comparison

Aside of its neighbors, Belle Plaine has some catching up to do.

Jordan finished ahead of Belle Plaine in three of the four groups, earning higher scores in proficiency (22.81), growth (12.93) and reducing achievement gap (11.48).

Belle Plaine finished below its public school counterparts in the Minnesota River Conference and area schools on proficiency of student groups and academic growth.

It was among the top schools in the area for rate of graduation of students.

New Prague Choir Members Will Be Rock Stars For a Day Times recently reported.

The 12 students will meet band members and perform in an event to help raise money for the school’s choir program.

The choir members include Julia Bartusek, Becky Daleiden, Noah Hummel, Jacob Hurt, Charlie Murphy, Ali Nicolai, Falan Nuhring, Ben Ott, Matt Schoenbauer, Richard Scrivener and Jackie Sleavin.

Voters planning to cast absentee ballots in the Belle Plaine School Board election have until Oct. 31, 3 p.m., to pick up their ballots and turn them in.

The board has three open seats being contested in the Nov. 3 general election. Tracy O’Brien and Gary Steinhagen formally signed up to run. The third seat might be filled via a write-in candidate.

Terry Kahle, a Blakeley Township resident, indicated a willingness to serve as a write-in candidate.

Absentee ballots can be picked up and turned in at Scott County Government Center -- 200 Fourth Avenue W. -- in Shakopee. The county is handling the ballots because the school district designated the county as its official repository of absentee ballots.

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.

“I was proud to see the girls rally back from the disappointment, and take care of business, proving we could compete with any team in the gym. It was a great weekend for several players, and ultimately us as a team.”

Following the loss to Concordia, Belle Plaine bounced back later in the night with straightset wins over Martin County West and Hill-Murray. The Tigers then won all three matches on Saturday against Heritage Christian, Melrose and St. Croix Lutheran, the latter of which was the only one to go three sets.

Paul Tillquist Receives Gustavus Adolphus’s Highest Alumni Honor B.P. Native Honored for Career of Service

Crash Cleanup A crew from West Central Environmental Consultants and Belle Plaine’s Kenny Neisen cleaned up several tons of spilled soybean meal from the edge of a storm water drainage pond just off the Highway 169 exit ramp to East Main Street Tuesday morning (Sept. 29). The truck carrying the soybean meal crashed Friday night (Sept. 25) around 11 p.m. Neisen expected about two-thirds of the approximately 20-ton load could be saved and fed to livestock.

Belle Plaine Food Shelf Seeking Donations for Annual Benefit The Belle Plaine Food Shelf and its many volunteers will be hosting the fifth annual fundraising event to help support the organization that has assisted many families in the area.

New Ulm Oktoberfest Soon Come join the “most German city in America” as it celebrates Oktoberfest on Oct 2-3 and Oct 9-10.

Now in its 34th year, New Ulm’s Oktoberfest is modeled after one of the world’s largest celebrations held for several centuries in Munich, Germany, and features music, beer and German heritage. New Ulm’s version takes place during the first two weekends in October with festivities in four locations – historic downtown, Morgan Creek Vineyards, Schell’s Brewery and the Best Western Plus.

The downtown events on Saturday, Oct 3 include the Germanic-American Day Parade at 11 a.m. and then music and food at the corner of Center and Minnesota streets. Local favorites Schell’s Hobo Band will play from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. and a Johnny Cash tribute band, The Church of Cash, will play from 2-5 p.m.

The following Saturday, Oct 10, will feature the local Wendinger Band from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m., followed by Switch Road

Band from 2-5 p.m.

German and American food provided by Turner Hall will be available for purchase both weekends. There will be German craft beer from Schell’s Brewery and local wine from Morgan Creek Vineyards available, as well as Angry Orchard Hard Cider and locally brewed 1919 Root Beer. The Optimist Club will again be serving their famous cheese curds, and new this year will be locally grown apples and fall produce for sale from A-Peeling Orchards and Harvest Specialties.

In 2014, New Ulm’s Oktoberfest was voted Best Oktoberfest

by WCCO’s Best of Minnesota program, and has been ranked among the best Oktoberfest celebrations in the nation by Fodor’s Travel (2014), USA TODAY (2015), and Tripping. com (2015). Come see what all the fuss is about!

The food shelf is currently giving out a ton of food every week in the five hours per week it is open.

There was never really much doubt in Paul Tillquist’s mind where he would go to college after graduating from Belle Plaine High School. What he didn’t yet know in the summer of 1959 was that over five decades, Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Minn. would become his professional home.

Tillquist spent most of his career promoting Gustavus Adolphus and raising money to help the college grow into one of the region’s top academic institutions. He retired in May, 2014 and was presented the Greater Gustavus Award.

The award was an unexpected honor.

“It does mean a lot to be recognized for my work. It has been my privilege to work with hundreds of alumni through my years of service. Of course, it is obvious that there were many other wonderful alumni who could also be so-honored,” he said. “I am grateful to be one of those chosen to be honored this time.”

The award is the highest honor presented by the college’s alumni association. It was first given in 1945. It is awarded to “those who by deed have notably advanced and aided Gustavus Adolphus College.”

Tillquist, now 74, remembers Belle Plaine sent a student or two to Gustavus Adolphus College almost every year. He grew up in town. His father, Frederick, owned the Ford dealership in Belle Plaine.

Gustavus Adolphus was only 26 miles from Belle Plaine. He had visited the college with his Boy Scout troop for swimming events at the school’s indoor pool.

“I really felt I was raised well in Belle Plaine. It was a small community, a close-knit community where people looked

Donation, Charitable Gambling Making Impact in Gaylord Thanks to a donation and proceeds from charitable gaming, Gaylord city councilors were able to OK the purchase of a new ambulance and grass rig for the city’s fire department.

Gaylord Fire Chief Dean Schons said the department is buying a $32,000 Ford F3500 grass rig, the Gaylord Hub recently reported. Proceeds from charitable gambling will pay

for the rig.

The new ambulance, which includes an automatic lift cot, costs $180,000. A donation from the Fred Pitzner estate will fund the purchase. The ambulance services hopes to have the new rig ready for service by next spring.

The city’s old ambulance is being donated to the City of Comfrey.

after each other,” he said.

Tillquist was attracted to Gustavus by its strong academics, it’s commitment to overall excellence, development of the total person and Christian values. Its proximity to Belle Plaine, its liberal arts education and church affiliation made the decision to attend a no-brainer.

“I never really thought about going anywhere else, never thought about attending the University of Minnesota or St. Olaf,” he said.

Tillquist planned to be a teacher and had completed his student teaching at Richfield High School. While a student, Tillquist worked in the college’s public relations office promoting student achievement and college events.

A Change of Plan

But in early-1963, his career path changed. The college’s director of admissions offered Tillquist a job in GAC’s admissions office. His job was to meet with high school seniors and their parents, visiting high schools from Michigan to the Dakotas to promote Gustavus Adolphus.

“He put about 50,000 mile a year on his car,” said Dick Tillquist, Paul’s younger brother and a 1953 GAC graduate.

Dick still lives in Belle Plaine.

After two years, Paul left Gustavus Adolphus to work on his master’s degree. He completed the degree and a doctorate and took a job in 1968 at Southwest State University, then a new post-secondary institution, as director of counseling.

Though Tillquist worked in Marshall, Minn., Gustavus was never far from his heart. When Gustavus received a grant to improve retention, Tillquist returned as director of academic counseling, assistant director of admission and as an assistant professor in the education department where he developed the human relations course required by all students seeking a license in teaching, said Rev.

Dennis Johnson, a former GAC president.

His major responsibility was in the implementation of the collegiate fellows program which dramatically raised the retention rate resulting in a significant improvement of the financial health of the college, Johnson said.

In 1980, Tillquist was appointed Gustavus’ senior development officer. He worked as a fundraiser, helping the school raise money for programs and facilities.

Tillquist left GAC in 1995 to work at Lutheran Social Service as its vice president. He stayed at LSS for eight years.

But again, Gustavus called him home.

Recruiting the Recruiter

Rev. Dennis Johnson, Gustavus Adolphus’ interim president called Tillquist. The job was to raise significant capitol for major projects.

Now, he was the recruit.

“He (Johnson) said, I need some white hair in the development office,” Tillquist said.

Johnson is one of Tillquist’s closest friends. The Belle Plaine native wasn’t about to turn him down. But Tillquist, who lives in North Oaks, wasn’t interested in moving back to St. Peter.

“Paul acquired a reputation as a creative planned giving officer.

He earned the trust of countless donors and completed a variety of planned gifts funded with an astonishing array of appreciated assets,” Johnson said. “He played many roles at Gustavus and succeeded because of his ability to build relationships and your positive spirit.”

Johnson said Tillquist could work from home. Tillquist returned to Gustavus as a consultant to the president and the advancement office.

“Gustavus has a special place in his heart. It wasn’t just a place he earned a paycheck,” Dick Tillquist said.

He planned to work for three years and retire, but stayed for 11. His wife, Ruth, and family finally convinced Tillquist the time to slow down and enjoy the fruits of his service had arrived.

She had previously retired after a career teaching public school in Colorado, St. Peter and Twin Cities public schools.

Tillquist knows Gustavus Adolphus College will continue to thrive, growth that will create the need for additional initiatives and facilities that require money to pay for them.

“There will always need to be more funds to be raised,” he said.

Tillquist is looking forward to a return to Belle Plaine next weekend for a class reunion. “It will be nice to be back,” he said.

“I’m looking forward to it.”

H.S. Cross Country

Belle Plaine Boys, Girls Both Take 3rd at Crown; Run Well at Winona

by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine High School boys’ and girls’ cross country teams competed in two meets last week, both placing third at a 10-team meet at Crown College on Tuesday and fifth and sixth, respectively, at Winona on Saturday.

Both the Belle Plaine boys’ and girls’ teams were scheduled to compete in a meet at Mankato Tuesday after this edition of the Herald went to press. They will be at the Ney Nature Center in Henderson for another meet next Tuesday afternoon.

Boys’ Crown College Results

The Belle Plaine boys continued their season-long stretch of high team finishes when they placed third in a 10-team meet hosted by Waconia at Crown College last Tuesday.

Chanhassen, the largest school in the meet, won with a team score of 34, which was well ahead of second-place Waconia with 79. Rounding out the field were Belle Plaine (96), Delano (104), Howard Lake-WaverlyWinsted (127), Dassel-Cokato (137), Glencoe-Silver Lake (158), Watertown-Mayer (231), Le Sueur-Henderson (256) and Rockford (259).

Connor Schank of Howard Lake-Waverly-Winsted took individual medalist honors as he covered the 5,000-meter course in a time of 16:32, which was three seconds ahead of Waconia’s Alex Carrabre. There were 67 runners competing.

Belle Plaine’s top five runners were Kyle Siemon (12th in 17:52), Kellen Bergs (16th in 18:25), Dylan Bigaouette (18th in 18:30), Sam Gregory (24th in 18:42) and Carter Corl (26th in 18:50).

13 teams in Saturday’s meet in the Saint Yon’s Valley on the campus of Saint Mary’s University in Winona.

Rochester Century took first place with 42 points and Rochester Mayo was second with 73. Also in the field were Albert Lea (119), Winona (125), Belle Plaine (146), Rochester Home School (158), Faribault (159), Rochester John Marshall (160), St. Charles (254), Arcadia (266), Lewiston-Altura/ Rushford-Peterson (296), Dover-Eyota (329) and Winona Cotter (346).

Seth Massot of Rochester Century, who finished in 16:29, was the individual medalist among a field of 86 runners.

Belle Plaine’s top finishers, all of whom again finished in the front half of the field, included Siemon (16th in 17:52), Bergs (24th in 18:09), Bigaouette (29th in 18:13), Gregory (40th in 18:44) and Elliot Rudd (41st in 18:44).

Girls’ Crown College Results

Like the boys, the Belle Plaine girls’ team placed third in their 10-team field last Tuesday at Crown College. Host Waconia took first place with 41 points, followed by Chanhassen with 58 and Belle Plaine 98. The other teams were Glencoe-Silver Lake (130), Watertown-Mayer (152), Howard Lake-WaverlyWinsted (159), Delano (173), Le Sueur-Henderson (231) and Rockford (252).

Watertown-Mayer’s Hannah Truinger was individual medalist by a huge distance, covering the 5,000-meter course in 18:56. Miranda Gilbertson of Chanhassen was a distant second in 20:41. No one else among the 64 runners finished under 21:07.

Boys’ Winona Emily Berger, an eighth-grader, had another strong showing Results for Belle Plaine as her time The Tigers placed fifth among of 21:17 was good for fourth

rest of the way to the end zone.

The extra-point kick was no good and the Tigers were still within six points (13-7) with 4:00 left in the first half.

Again, the Tigers managed to move the ball but couldn’t finish the job. A holding penalty that nullified a 32-yard touchdown play didn’t help matters, and a pass by Narveson near the end zone was intercepted in the closing seconds of the half.

Both teams visited the other’s half of the field at least once in the third quarter but it wasn’t until the opening seconds of the fourth quarter that TCU cracked the end zone on a short toss from Smisek to tight end Trey Krautkremer. A two-point conversion attempt failed but the Titans, who were celebrating homecoming, had a 19-7 lead with 11:23 left in the game.

Another interception gave the ball back to TCU, which two plays later it took full advantage of when running back Michael McCrady broke free and outraced Belle Plaine’s secondary for a 70-yard TD run with 9:29 to play, making it 25-7.

The Tigers got back on the scoreboard for the first time in three quarters when Narveson tossed a 30-yard scoring pass to wide receiver Mitch Stier, who outdueled the defender for the ball at the goal line. The twopoint conversion was no good and the Titans still led comfortably at 25-13 with 6:34 left to play.

Narveson was picked off for a third time in the Tigers’ final possession of the game.

“TCU is a good team and we knew that we would have to play our best game of the year so far,” said Tigers coach Justin Johnston. “Offensively, we moved the ball between the 20s but need to finish our drives.

Defensively, we did a good job of holding their offense in check. We had two tipped balls that didn’t go our way, but I thought the defense really held #28 (Chimal) in check, which was one of our keys.

“We need to continue to progress for the playoffs and that is the good part – we haven’t played our best football yet and the kids are eager to get back to work this week to correct the mistakes,” Johnson concluded.

alties and turnovers, the game was evenly played. The Tigers had 339 total yards of offense (214 passing and 125 rushing).

Narveson completed 13 of 21 passes for 214 yards and one TD. Jonny Vinkemeier was the top receiver with four catches for 98 yards. Brody Curtiss had three grabs for 51 yards and Stier two for 38 and a TD. Branden Schulz caught three passes for 26 yards and Carter Brink one for 1 yard.

Walsh was the leading rusher with 70 yards and one TD on 17 carries. Narveson kept 11 times for 30 yards and Brink carried five times for 25 yards.

Linebacker Alec Ruud had another big night defensively as he was in on 20 tackles. Wally Schultz and Dylan Johnson both had 11 and Danny McCann 10.

Next up for the Tigers is a homecoming date with St. Peter 7 p.m. this Friday at the Belle Plaine Athletic Complex.

The Saints, 4-2, have been on a bit of a roller coaster so far this season, their latest victory coming by the slimmest of margins (15-13) at Jordan Friday night.

The Saints won their first two games of the season against Le Sueur-Henderson 30-14 and Worthington 32-31 before losing to Waseca 51-17. They then beat New Ulm 27-16 before losing to Fairmont 28-7.

The Saints needed a trick play late to defeat the Hubmen in Friday’s game at Jordan. Quarterback Avery Bachman started the play by pitching out to the right to running back Jake Emley, who passed the ball to wide open wide receiver Noah Hildebrandt along the sidelines, who ran it for a 26-yard scoring play with 1:24 left in the game.

Judging by results against common opponents this season, the host Tigers should have the edge Friday night.

Coach Pleased “We had a great day,” said Belle Plaine coach Steve Schroeder.

“The boys’ team finished ahead of all the other Class A schools and the girls also beat all the A schools except Dover-Eyota.

“Kyle Siemon had a great week leading the boys again on a very hilly course. McKenna Herrmann led the girls, having an excellent race on the same hilly course. Eight personal records were set on the tough course. Overall last week, we set 22 new personal records,” Schroeder continued.

St. Peter Not Coming to MRC The St. Peter School Board voted 7-0 last week to decline an invitation to join the Minnesota River Conference starting in the fall of 2017. Instead, the Saints will remain a member of the Big South Conference.

Initially, St. Peter district officials were in favor of relocating to the MRC in order to cut down travel time to member schools, and it appeared that was the direction they would go. However, it was eventually concluded that the MRC’s

limited athletic offerings would put seven Saints programs that are not in the MRC at risk, including swimming, boys’ tennis, boys’ and girls’ hockey, gymnastics, and boys’ and girls’ soccer, all of which are not offered in the MRC. All but swimming is available in the Big South Conference.

With the departure of Watertown-Mayer this year, the MRC is currently down to seven teams, with fewer than that in some other programs, including wrestling and tennis.

Top Baseball Campers Keaton Nordby, left, was recognized for placing third, and Joseph Burgemeister, right, for placing first and earning the Mr. Baseball title (seventh grade level) at the 2015 MaxBat Mr. Baseball competition on Sept. 20 in Cologne. Both are from Belle Plaine. at

Tigers Overcome by Titans

by Dan Ruud Turnovers and a bucket full of penalty flags added up to the second 12-point loss for Belle Plaine in the last three games as the Tigers lost to unbeaten TriCity United 25-13 Friday night in soggy Montgomery.

It was the final road game of the regular season for Belle Plaine (4-2), which lost at Waseca 26-14 two weeks earlier in its only other loss of the season so far.

Thing looked dandy for the Tigers early against the Titans. Af-

ter an exchange of punts to start the game, the Tigers marched 93 yards for the game’s first score. The final 11 yards came on a run by Marcus Walsh. Ruben Baltierrez kicked the extra point to make it 7-0 with 5:04 left in the first quarter.

The Titans then commenced and finished off a long drive of their own that ended with a 2-yard TD run by Aaron Chimal. The extra-point kick was good and the score was knotted 7-7 with 10:58 left in the second quarter.

Belle Plaine advanced the ball more than half the length of the field on its next possession but was stopped on downs 8 yards shy of the end zone. From there, TCU mounted a 92-yard scoring drive that was punctuated by a 44-yard scoring toss from quarterback Trevor Smisek to Carter Rynda. The Tigers’ Luke Narveson managed to tip the pass while it was coming down but the ball landed in the hands of Rynda, who then trotted the

Tigers Lose Tough One to Jags

by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine High School tennis team’s chances of a top two finish in the Minnesota River Conference took a big hit when it got clipped by Jordan 4-3 last Tuesday at the Belle Plaine courts. The Tigers concluded the week on Friday with a 7-0 nonconference triumph at Southwest Christian.

Thursday’s home match against MRC-leading Le SueurHenderson was postponed due to rain. It will be made up on Oct. 5. The Tigers were scheduled to travel to Sibley East for a conference match Tuesday after this edition of the Herald went to press. Belle Plaine will host Tri-City United 4:15 p.m. this Thursday.

Jordan 4, Tigers 3 Belle Plaine nearly avenged a 5-2 loss at Jordan on Sept. 3 Belle Plaine’s Grace Olson, playing with a cast on her left wrist and a brace on her left ankle, won her No. 1 doubles Tennis match at Southwest Christian Friday. She teamed with Ra(continued on page 14) chel Schroers.

Rachel Schroers returned a shot during her and her teammate Grace Olson’s No. 1 doubles victory at Southwest Christian Friday.

by Dan Ruud The Belle Plaine High School volleyball team remained unbeaten in the Minnesota River Conference with another convincing win over Tri-City United Thursday night. The Tigers then won five of six matches at this past weekend’s Class 2A Showcase at the Midwest Volleyball Warehouse in Burnsville.

The Tigers, 3-0 in the MRC, 11-1 overall, were scheduled to host New Prague in a nonconference match Tuesday night after this edition of the Herald went to press. They will be at Mayer Lutheran for a key MRC match 7 p.m. this Thursday. The Tigers and Crusaders are both undefeated in conference play.

Belle Plaine will visit Waconia for a nonconference test next Monday before hosting Jordan on Tuesday.

Tigers 3, Tri-City United 0 It was another one of those matches where Belle Plaine got to give all its players plenty of playing time and sample different lineups en route to a 25-11, 25-21, 25-22 Minnesota River Conference victory over TriCity United Thursday night at the BPHS gym.

“It was nice to get back in front of the home crowd and it showed as our girls took care of business quickly,” said Tigers coach Cassie Koch. “TCU struggled to get into a system, and we didn’t give them too many opportunities with quick side outs and a consistent, balanced attack.”

Mariena Hayden had 14 kills for Belle Plaine, followed by Kaylee Hentges and Dakotah Poitra with nine apiece.

Ally Anderson added four and Taylor Kruger and McKenzie Koepp one apiece, the latter of whom also had a solo block.

Poitra had a team-high 10 digs, while Elizabeth Johnson and Hayden both had nine and Kruger six. Hayden and Johnson also both had two ace serves.

Danielle Taylor had 31 set assists and Paige Narveson six.

Class 2A Showcase The Tigers wanted to win Friday’s and Saturday’s Class 2A Showcase Tournament at the Midwest Volleyball Warehouse in Burnsville to prove they deserve the No. 1 ranking in the state in Class 2A. Although they did not take first, it’s not likely they will move down much in the rankings, if any.

The Tigers won five of six matches and the only blemish to their won/loss record this year came in the first match Friday evening against Concordia Academy, which ended with both teams winning one set but the tiebreaker going to Concordia by one point.

“Our girls had an outstanding weekend,” Koch said. “We enjoyed playing many competitive teams, challenging both our offense and defense. Our placing (fifth) doesn’t represent our performance well. We were subject to a point system, in which one split match resulted

Belle Plaine assistant coach Chelsea Hutchinson presented setter Danielle Taylor with plenty of memorabilia Thursday for going over 1,000 career set assists, a feat she accomplished at last fall’s state tournament.

The Tigers’ Paige Narveson and McKenzie Koepp helped make things difficult for TCU’s hitters Thursday night.

Belle Plaine’s Mariena Hayden, right, had 14 kills, nine digs and two ace serves against TCU Thursday night.

The Tigers’ Dakotah Poitra had nine kills, 10 digs and one ace serve against TCU Thursday.

TEST DRIVE A NEW BUICK Interest in Soccer in Belle Plaine is Growing

HELP BUICK DONATE UP TO

The Belle Plaine Soccer Association hosted a day of soccer Saturday at Heritage Square Park.

The day featured a series of informal pickup games involving players of all ages. About 150 children attended the event. Soccer is run through Belle Plaine School District Community Education. Last year, about 130 children in kindergarten through eighth grade played in the

spring program. BPSA organizers are hoping to attract older students to participate. Information on the spring program will be published in Community Educationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winter brochure.

The association enjoyed the generosity of Matt Saxe Chevrolet-Buck. The dealership donated $1,000 -- $500 as a cash donation and an additional $500 for equipment.

Four-year-old Mason Britz of Belle Plaine showed where he and his mom, Jill, found the 2015 Harvest Hunt Medallion Tuesday afternoon. They located it behind the Par 3 sign at the Court Square Park Disc Golf Course, just hours before the Herald was to publish the second clue. Jill said she and Mason didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to the park to look for the coin, but rather to just hang out for a little while. Jill said she began thinking about the clue that had been published in the Herald last Wednesday and remembered things pertaining to wooden nickels (disc-shaped) and number crunching, etc. She decided to start searching around the disc golf signs, starting at No. 1.

It was No. 3 where Mason spotted it, making the family $200 richer.
