Paul Dahlin and his son Daniel Dahlin, on fiddle, and Elise Peters, on nyckelharpa, prepare to lead the Grand March during the third annual Nordic Music Festival in Waconia on Saturday afternoon. Paul Dahlin was recently awarded Knight First Class of the Polar Star – the highest honor bestowed by the Swedish king to a non-Swedish citizen. The connection between Carver County and Sweden is about to get tighter, as Carver establishes a “sister” relationship with Ydre Kommun in Sweden.

Poetry fuses thoughts and words Author treats brain injury with verse BY UNSIE ZUEGE uzuege@swpub.com

Writing poetry helped Angela Hunt of Carver regain her language skills after a traumatic brain injury in 2005. She published a book of poetry, “Am I Still Me?” in 2008.
It was the morning of Feb. 14, 2005, and Angela Hunt walked down the sidewalk heading to the staff door of the Chaska Library, where she is a librarian. “I was due at 9:45 a.m. to open,” said Hunt, a Carver resident. “I caught my toe on a brick and tripped. The snow was falling and swirling. It was that dry kind of snow. I don’t remember hitting the ground. I do remember though that I saw a gas engine pickup truck heading down the street toward me right before I tripped. But when I got up, I saw it was an idling diesel-
engine truck. I remember thinking that was odd.” Hunt picked herself up. Her glasses were broken, and her ribs hurt. When she entered the library, she noticed that another library employee had already gotten everything — the computers and equipment — up and running. “I felt a little shook up,” Hunt said. She’d also skinned her knee badly, but attended to it, and then went on with her day. It was one month later, when Hunt was opening the library, that she realized she didn’t know how to start up the computer.

Crowds converged on Lake Waconia Regional Park for the third annual Nordic Music Festival last Saturday. The event included Viking reenactors, the second annual lutefisk toss and about a dozen traditional Scandinavian performances by singers and dancers. “The performances were fantastic. We had great musicians – couldn’t have asked for any better,” said Carolyn Spargo, of Chaska, with the Nordic Heritage Club. The club coorganized the event with the Sons of Norway Scandia Lodge. The crowd was about 350 people, Spargo said. “We’re still in that growing stage,” said Spargo, who is already thinking of ways to make the event “bigger and better.”

the United States represented opportunity to start a new life, which Peterson, a former resident of Ydre, represented. Nearly every family in Sweden had a family member who emigrated to the U.S. during that time. Peterson left the Ydre Kommun area and settled in Carver County in 1855, on property that is now known as Rock Isle
Farm, located on Highway 5, between Victoria and Waconia. Peterson kept a compre hensive journal of his life on his farm, and records of his agricultural research with crops including apples. Years later, Swedish author Vilhelm Moberg would use the Peterson diaries as a basis for his fourbook series, “The Emigrants.” In Sweden, Peterson exemplified that dream by his success in America and is considered a national hero. The Nordic Club of Carver
County and the Andrew Peterson Society in Sweden have established a partnership in recent years, raising money and awareness to preserve the original Peterson granary. Two times in the past five years, Swedes have come to the Carver County to repair the granary. In 2010 and this fall, members of the Andrew Peterson Society have toured Ca r ver C ou nt y, a nd ot her areas in Minnesota and Iowa where Swedish immigrants settled.

EDITORIAL
Surly, the city can’t be serious? It is serious, and don’t call Chaska Surly. Call the city Pollyanna. City officials get an “A” for effort regarding their overtures to draw the Surly Brewing Co. to Chaska. The popular craft brewery is currently based in Brooklyn Center and is seeking a new home, where it can open a brewery, with a beer garden, restaurant and event center. The city is lobbying to bring the brewery to the Chaska Building Center site, just east of downtown on County Road 61. We’re skeptical that Chaska has a shot against players such as Minneapolis and St. Paul, who are also lobbying for Surly’s hoppy affection. But why not? Surly is a great beer. Chaska is
a great city. Ch a sk a wou ld provide Su rly with a cheap location. Surly would provide Chaska with a downtown draw. It’s a perfect match. Regardless of what happens, hats off to Chaska city officials for their chutzpah. Surly, or a Surly type business, is what the city needs – something that would create local jobs and bring tourism to downtown Chaska. Plus, we haven’t had a brewery for almost 60 years. And that’s far too long a time for a city built on the back of German immigrants. Tell Surly we’re prepared to reinstate the Schnitzelbank Club. Ist das nicht ein Surly beer? Ja, das ist ein Surly beer.
Advancing research for Alzheimer’s cure Until a few years ago, Jerry Parks had a successful career with a construction company in Minnesota. But, while still in his early 50s, Jerry had to retire because he was experiencing short-term memory loss. Originally misdiagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder, Jerry eventually learned he was in the early stages of Alzheimer’s disease. Jerry is not alone. Close to 5.5 million Americans, including nearly 100,000 Minnesotans, are currently living with this degenerative brain disease. These numbers will grow dramatically in the coming years with the aging of the Baby Boom generation, sometimes knows as the “silver tsunami.” By 2030, the number of Americans with Alzheimer’s will likely double from what it is today. The financial costs of providing care to those afflicted by this disease are huge. Total payments this year for health care, long-term care and hospice care connected with Alzheimer’s will exceed $180 billion. And dollar figures account for only a portion of the real costs of caring for people with Alzheimer’s, because most care is provided by family members.
Amy
KLOBUCHAR GUEST COMMENTARY
These formidable statistics about Alzheimer’s tell only part of the story. Behind the numbers are real people living with Alzheimer’s or helping care for someone with the disease. They are people like Jerry Parks and his wife, Karen, who now helps care for him. Or Julie Allen, who began experiencing memory problems five years ago at age 52, but only last year was finally diagnosed with younger-onset Alzheimer’s disease. Alzheimer’s is such a frustrating disease in part because scientists still do not know exactly what causes it, or how to prevent it, or how to cure it. In recent years,
though, there have been scientific breakthroughs that promise to answer these questions. Last month I invited Dr. Richard Hodes, director of the National Institute on Aging, to meet with Minnesotans concerned about Alzheimer’s. He also visited the Mayo Clinic. Dr. Hodes described some of the leading-edge Alzheimer’s research, much of it happening in Minnesota. At the Mayo Clinic, Dr. Ronald Petersen and his team can now use advanced brain imaging to identify individuals at the very earliest stage of the disease in order to intervene with drugs or other therapies that could delay the onset or slow the progression of the disease. It is no coincidence that the all-time winningest coach in U.S. college basketball history, Pat Summitt of the University of Tennessee, went to Mayo for her early diagnosis of dementia. And Dr. Petersen’s recent appointment as chair of the national Advisory Council on Alzheimer’s Research, Care and Services means that his cutting edge research will only continue to help us better understand this disease. At the University of Minnesota, Dr. Karen Hsiao Ashe’s research
with mice is considered by many to be the “gold standard” for Alzheimer’s research. Her work has helped to better identify the cause of memory loss in Alzheimer’s and has been used by her colleagues across the country to help develop new treatments, preventive therapies, and possible cures to this disease. Other pioneers include Dr. Frank LaFerla from the University of California, Irvine. Studying mice and the use of healthy stem cells, Dr. LaFerla is charting new ground in the potential of neural stem cell therapy to treat and possibly cure Alzheimer’s disease. And finally, several months ago, for the first time in 27 years the National Institute on Aging and the Alzheimer’s Association issued new criteria for diagnosing Alzheimer’s and new research guidelines to reflect the latest research on the disease. Further innovative research on this disease is essential and it depends on the National Institute on Aging, which sponsors three-quarters of our nation’s research on Alzheimer’s. Focusing more on Alzheimer’s research is the right thing to do. It’s also the smart thing to do. Between now and 2050, Alzheimer’s will cost the U.S. an estimated $20 trillion. We could cut
that by almost half with a treatment that delayed the onset of Alzheimer’s by just five years, similar to what we see with anti-cholesterol drugs in preventing heart disease. For example, a recent study conducted at the Minneapolis VA Medical Center showed that early testing may more than pay for itself, as people diagnosed with the disease may be less likely to be treated for other illnesses. The study found that patients diagnosed with dementia through screening reported 13 percent less in health costs in the first year of treatment. That’s why I’m a cosponsor of the bipartisan Alzheimer’s Breakthrough Act, which would strengthen federal support for Alzheimer’s research and increase the focus on scientific opportunities with the best likelihood of producing clinical treatments or, even better, a cure for the disease. Alzheimer’s is one of the toughest medical, economic, and social challenges we face in the years ahead. It’s essential for our future that we support the basic medical research that is our only hope for a true breakthrough to attack this mind-ravaging disease. U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar represents the state of Minnesota.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR MNDOT
May we all find peace amidst chaos Editor’s note: Zabrina Dunn is the mother of Shyla Huber, who died with her unborn baby in an Oct. 19, 2010 two-vehicle accident. The roadside memorial was at Marystown Road/ Highway 169 in Shakopee. After this letter was submitted, Dunn was able to retrieve the memorial items. MnDOT is exploring locating the memorial elsewhere. Latitude: 4 4.77747, Longitude: -93.54021. The darkest place on earth for me. It was eight months before I could visit that location. With the help of family and friends, we were able to create some beauty at a place on this earth that I feared would be forever execrable. Few can imagine the difference it made in my heart as I traversed Highway 169 each day. It was a small garden, 6 feet by 12 feet, placed under a road sign. Far enough from the road to not inhibit traffic or street cleaning machinery. It was encased to make ease of mowing around it. A small piece of dirt once covered with weeds and straw grass now held perennial plants selected specifically to attract butterflies. She loved but-
terflies, and I suppose her daughter would have grown to do the same. The butterfly stone bearing their names was made by her cousin. The footprint holding the inscription “Life is fragile” was brought there by her two best friends. The agates and shells were a favorite of my 6-year-old nephew. The planter of Tiger Eye’s was a gift from my sister, a small comfort on the first birthday without them. Wind chimes of butterfl ies and dolphins were gifts from her aunt and grandmother. The butterf ly pot, garden gnomes, and my favorite, the “Mom’s Garden” pixie, were all from me. However, on Friday, Sept. 16 someone made the decision to tear up the garden. Not a moment spent trying to reach us so we could retrieve our belongings. Not a thought given to the fact that the perennials would come back each year. My sister came over late that night, with her 6-year-old sleeping in the car, just so I wouldn’t discover it the next day when I went to water the plants. Now I’m sure the DOT had their reasons. Perhaps concern for the safety of people stopping on the entrance ramp of a low traffic intersection. Maybe they didn’t want to encourage others to feel that they could do the same. I’m sure the decision was made with good reason. As my heart breaks for the de-

I wanted to share a huge thank you and gratitude to John Lenzen and his clan. The generosity at Steamboat Days was outstanding. The day started with walking up to the beautiful red, white and blue float with a huge eagle in the front. John had arranged the float for the members of the Chaska Post VFW 1791. The float was a wonderful gift to the members of the VFW that were
unable to march in the parade. The float made me feel so pleased. It was like a throne for those men and women to sit upon and still participate in the parade. When I fi nished marching, I was able to watch the rest of the parade. What I saw was the Lenzen clan – John, family, employees and more all having fun, donating their time, making people of all ages smile and

The conversation will continue Nov. 1 when the series tackles “Polarization and Civility: A pollster’s look at recent trends.” Bill Morris, a pollster with Decision Resources, will be on hand to talk about trends in voter attitudes. On Dec. 6, the discussion focuses on “The Responsible Citizen and Informed Electorate” and what it means to be an educated voter. The series wraps up on Feb. 7 with “The Good Society and Spirituality.” Stewart plans to assemble a variety of religious leaders to offer their tradition’s vision for “The Good Society.” Speakers and locations for the series have not yet been
announced for all of the evenings. Stewart said those interested in attending should visit the Shepherd of the Hill website for more information. All events are free and open to the public. “This is a community program,” emphasized Stewart. “The dialogues started because of our commitment to the town hall square,” he continued. “The church was a meeting house where people came together to discuss the wellbeing of the town. When we do the dialogues, this is not a place of worship.” All four events will be taped and aired on the community television channels.

American Express renewed its commitment to Partners in Preservation in 2010 by pledging $10 million toward the program over the next five years. Through this partnership, American Express and the National Trust for Historic Preservation seek to increase the public’s awareness of the importance of historic preservation in the United States and to preserve America’s historic and cultural places. The program also seeks to inspire long-term support from local citizens for the historic sites at the heart of their communities.

Shepherd of Hill Presbyterian Church fi res up a new dialogue series starting Tuesday, Oct. 4, called “The Good Society: Beyond Shutdowns.” “There is no more important issue on the table both locally and nationally than the function of representative democracy,” said Gordon Stewart, pastor at Shepherd of the Hill. The dialogue series comes on the back of a three-week state shut-down in Minnesota and a close call with the federal government. Stewart said the fi rst evening “Representative Democracy: Beyond Shutdowns – let your voice be heard” addresses the question of what we expect of the people we elect to office. “The conundrum we’re dealing with is the natural tension between principle and compromise,” he said. “To what extent do we expect
Loc. 311 S. 4th St., Henderson, MN those representatives to stand by their positions no matter what and to what extent do we expect them to enter into a wider discussion in the best interest of all? The series kicks off with a discussion of representative democracy with the Minnesota Commissioner of Management and Budget Jim Schowalter, who served for both the Mark Dayton and Tim Pawlenty administrations. “He’s going to tell us what happened [with the shut-down], what are the results of the settlement that ended the stalemate,” said Stewart. Stewart is also issuing an open invitation to local and state representatives for the Oct. 4 event. But he hopes to keep the conversation focused on what the voters’ expectations are. “An old adage says, ‘If you see a turtle sitting up on a fence post, you can be pretty sure it didn’t get up there by itself.’ We put them there,” said Stewart. “The Good Society is one where principle and compromise are daily practices among its citizens as well as those we put on the fence posts,” he added. “I hope to have a very lively conversation.”

“I didn’t recognize the people I worked with, or the patrons I know,� Hunt said. “I couldn’t read. I recognized Janet [Karius, the assistant library director] but I couldn’t say her name. Then a friend of mine came into the library, took a look at me and said, ‘She needs to go to emergency.�
OUT COLD Doctors did X-rays and an MRI. The scans revealed that Hunt had suffered a traumatic brain injury when she tripped and fell in February. She’d been knocked unconscious. “I have no memory of the fall,� Hunt said. “I do remember that when I picked myself up that morning, there was all this snow covering me. I had thought that was odd at the time. The doctors think I was probably knocked out for 20 minutes. “And no one saw me lying there,� Hunt said, “because I had my white coat on and a white beret. It was snowing and I blended right in.� Falling face fi rst, she’d broken her nose, “crushing my sinuses like an accordion,� she said. And being knocked unconscious explained why the gas pickup truck she’d noticed turned into a diesel truck seemingly in the next instant. “The doctors said that I had such good coping skills and was so high functioning, it took a month before the brain injury became apparent,� Hunt said. “The brain just continues to function until it stops. I had cracked the bone by my eye, and injured my frontal lobe
in a closed head injury. Right after the fall, I had noticed my nose was sore but all the pieces [of that morning] didn’t come together until they did the MRI.�
STARTING OVER Hunt had been down this road before. In 1995, she suffered a stroke after having surgery. At that time she had to relearn speech and mobility. When doctors at HCMC looked at Hunt’s X-rays and MRI, they saw the earlier brain damage from the stroke. She worked with physical and occupational therapists for 14 months to help her relearn spatial relationships, manipulating objects, and dealing with her loss of peripheral vision. “I was spilling and dropping things and poking myself,� Hunt said. “And the sad thing is, if I’d been a housewife, someone who didn’t work outside the home, they would have sent me on my way after a few weeks. If you can read at a fi fth-grade level, they consider you recovered. “But I’m a librarian,� Hunt told her doctors. “A librarian has to know and access all this information. It’s what I do. This is the expectation of this profession.� Hunt had to learn to speak and read all over again. Comprehending what she read took longer. “I wouldn’t know what I had just read,� Hunt said. “When I’d had my stroke I’d started getting up in the middle of the night to do devotions. I would open my Bible, and I would look at two words and concentrate on them. And then I worked up to three words. And I just kept at it, adding words. So I did that again. “My doctor encouraged
me to go back to work after a month,� Hunt said. “But I didn’t know how I could. It turned out they let me work in the library’s back room, where I scanned bar codes on materials. It helped with my hand and eye coordination, and with my thinking process. “’When was the last time this material had been checked out?’ ‘Should it go to another branch?’ It helped me so much to learn the collection again.�
POET EMERGES Not being able to find the words to speak and describe her feelings felt lonely, Hunt said. It was a struggle to search for the right word. For all the thoughts and emotions she had swirling inside, “I only had nickel-anddime words,� Hunt said. “I could write things down but my vocabulary was small.� “The core of humanity is emotion,� Hunt said. “If you don’t have that palette of words, it’s a black and white world.� Hunt began writing poems to express the thoughts she couldn’t vocalize. “It began with the speech therapist,� Hunt said. “She’d ask, ‘How are you? ’ I would hand her the poem I wrote. “Speech, physical, and occupational therapy can be like school,� Hunt said. “A person tends to get out of it what they put into it. But after TBI (Traumatic Brain Injury) or stroke, the effort to get to ‘normal’ can be a lot more excruciating than a formal education because the struggle is continual. A braininjured person can’t just close a book and take a break from it. I quite literally studied every night in preparation for the next day’s speech therapy in order to gain back a lifetime of skills in 14 months. I affection-
ately call that time in my life my MBA-N: My Best Angela Now Degree. “I didn‘t know how to make dinner,� Hunt described her life as she recovered. “I would go to the closet and not being able to figure out what to wear. I’d ask myself, ‘what am I going to do today? What is the weather like? Do I need different shoes? It was a big puzzle. When I had my cognition test at HCMC, I asked, ‘Am I dressed all right?’ Hunt found that the physical act of writing helped her brain make connections with language. Writing poetry helped her recover language skills. It was also an outlet for expression and integral to regaining her emotional equilibrium. Since her injury, Hunt has published is “Am I Still Me? A Group of Words with Fundamental Questions for Those Struggling to Recover Themselves.� The poems express Hu nt ’s emot ion a l jou r ney as she regains her cognitive skills, her language skills and vocabulary. “Evidently people haven’t done a lot of writing during recovery,� Hunt said. “Not many [people with brain trauma] have done a journal and published it. I wrote a book two months out of hopper about what it was like to have a brain injury and then start to recover.� She had defi nite ideas about how the book would look and feel, drawing on her own difficulties and experience. “I wanted it to have stiff pages to make it easy to turn, to let it lay f lat,� Hunt said, drawing on the challenges she faced as she recovered. “I didn’t want it to be too heavy. I wanted lots of white space and to have a photograph on each page so the reader would have visual
LIVESREMEMBERED David Lee Myhre
John Christ Pallas John Pallas, former resident of Chaska, passed away Monday, Aug. 29, 2011 in Arizona. John was born March 5, 1930, in Chicago, Il, to Eva and Christos Pallas. In 1950, Johnny married his high school sweetheart, June Dae nee Stroder before leaving to serve in the military during the Korean War. Their marriage was blessed with four children, Chris of Sun Lakes, AZ), Gail of Shakopee, Jack of Chaska, Jeff of West Chicago, IL. John was a lifetime employee of Oscar Mayer. He won numerous sales honors and awards in his 34 years with the company. After retirement, he and June moved to their tree farm in Mauston WI, where he cared meticulously for the property and for June, whose health was deteriorating. After June’s death in 1997, John moved to Chaska to live near his family. He wintered in Sun Lakes, AZ. John lived and died as the consummate gentleman. He treated everyone with respect and courtesy, including all of his caregivers. Fighting the progressive ravages of diabetes, John was a double amputee and yet he never complained once about his situation, asserting to the end that he had “never been better!� He enjoyed cooking, fishing, collecting, growing roses and tomatoes, the Chicago Cubs and the Bears. John was preceded in death by his parents and his wife, June. He is survived by his children, Chris, Gail, Jack (Julie), Jeff (Donna); grandchildren, Ken Dexter, Chris Turner, and Danielle, Lindsey, Nicholas and Jacob Pallas; four great-grandchildren; nieces and nephews. A memorial service will be held Friday, Sept. 23 at 1 p.m. at St. John’s Lutheran Church, Chaska. In lieu of flowers, memorials are respectfully preferred to St. John’s Little Lambs Fund or the American Diabetes Association, where an Always and Forever Tribute fund has been set up (www.diabetes.com/donate/) under Pallas.

cues to what the words meant. I put exercises in the back of the book, for each poem, for the patient to regain verbal and comprehension skills.� At Christmas, Hunt will publish her second book entitled, “I Am Still Me,� a book of free verse, directed in part to caregivers who are learning how brain injury can manifest, as well as for those recovering from TBI.
ONGOING RECOVERY Though it’s been six years, Hunt’s brain injury keeps providing surprises. Like reading her poems from her book after a length of time. “It was a surprise to read them, that I had written them,� Hunt said. “It was the same when I had my stroke. I had to look at photo albums and I had kept journals of the funny things my kids had said and done. But I don’t have many
memories. I don’t have memories between the pictures. “About eight months after the fall, I woke up in the middle of the night. I felt words actually downloading into my head. I could see the words. It was as if the ligands and receptors had turned back on, the synapses in my brain. I was laughing. This went on for about four hours.� Another result of the brain injury for Hunt was seeing only in black and white for about 10 days. “One day, I was just staring off, looking at the wallpaper, and suddenly it went from black and white to color. I thought ‘Wow. Those cones and rods have started fi ring again.’� “Six years later and strange things still happen,� Hunt said. “Things are still coming back. Anyone with a brain injury can relate. I was medium to mild brain injured,� Hunt said. “But it’s nothing compared to what some people experience.�

SELLING BRAND OF HANDHELD OUTDOOR POWER EQUIPMENT IN AMERICA*
SUBMITTED PHOTO
Small trees, brush and vines were removed beneath 150-year-old bur oak, making space for hostas, sweet woodruf and other shade-loving perennials.
“I’ve noticed that the aging process coincides with a greater ability to be patient.” Cliff Johnson Master Gardener saw and remove trees that I’ve marked with bright tape during summer months. Tree trunks and branches larger than 4 inches in diameter are cut into firewood. If wood chunks need splitting, I wait for even colder days, because splitting wood by hand works up sweat faster than about any other kind of work. The old staying still holds: Wood heats you twice … once when you split it, and a second time when you burn it. The end of daylight saving time and arrival of heavy snow signals another of my seasons: woodcarving. I let this hobby rest from April to October but look forward to hours of creating and crafting wood objects when darkness arrives before dinner and frozen ground and deep snow prohibit yard work. The late-winter calendar signals the start of seed-starting season in my basement, where seeds are germinated in a southfacing window and grown under f lorescent lights. Seeds are grouped and planted on a schedule dictated by the number of days required to raise the plant to transplant size. Some plants require four months of nurturing to reach transplant size (e.g., begonias), while others race to transplant size in four weeks or
less (e.g., tomatoes). I’ve noticed that the aging process coincides with a greater ability to be patient, or to wait until “a project is ripe,” as an old friend of mine would say. May is the busiest month for most gardeners but September and October “to-do lists” can get mighty lengthy as well. If I could pick only one month as my favorite, I’d have to pick May because it’s always such a spectacular show. Trees burst out of dormancy and grow leaves and flowers, and perennials faithfully pop out of the ground for another year of splendor. If I was invited to name two favorite months, I’d add the month from mid-September to mid-October, when I can lay the ground work for new garden spaces by planning, clearing, tilling, planting and mulching. Yes, it’s a lot of work, and never looks like much as winter approaches; the reward comes in spring as plants emerge from the ground and the space begins to resemble the picture I had in mind when the project was conceived. A footnote to a column I wrote last spring, describ ing how my mother fostered my interest in gardening. I mentioned that she made elderberry pies in late summer when we brought home buckets of ripe, wild elderberries. My sister, bless her heart, made two elderberry pies a couple of weeks ago and invited her three brothers and our wives over for pie. What a treat. Thanks Joy!

King Solomon wrote nearly 3,000 years ago, “To everything there is a season.” T hat’s par ticu la rly t r ue in gardening, where I’ve concluded there are considerably more than four seasons. I thought about this on a sunny, crisp Labor Day morning. The drop in temperature and dew point, and the disappearance of mosquitoes, triggered a new season that I’d been anxiously awaiting during hot and buggy summer months. With a morning thermometer reading of 45 degrees, Monday was a perfect day to clear brush and small trees that had been encroaching on walking paths that interlace my woodlot. It would have been miserable work a month or two earlier but I enjoyed the project now that “brush clearing season” had arrived. I thought about all the different seasons in my gardening calendar that are triggered, for the most part, by temperature change, but also by day length, wet and dry periods, days to first frost, days to last-expected frost, first snow cover and disappearance of snow cover in spring. I look forward to cooler fall days to t ransfor m wooded spaces into shady perennial gardens. It’s a lot of work to cut or dig hundreds of small trees, shrubs and woody vines, in preparation for planting hostas and other shade-loving perennials. Gray dogwood, poison ivy, Virginia creeper and wild raspberry don’t just go away without a fight. They’ve been growing in these spaces before I was even a twinkle in my father’s eye. But clearing brush and creating new display gardens is satisfying work when sweat doesn’t smear up my glasses and mosquitoes aren’t flying into my ears and nostrils. When it cools further – below 50 degrees – I fire up the chain-

Giving students a boost Club finds ways to help high school BY CHUCK FRIEDBAUER friedchu@yahoo.com
The definition of a booster is a person or thing that boosts, especially an energetic and enthusiastic supporter. “At the end of last year, I stopped by when the school store opened to check it out and it seemed pretty cool,” said Chaska High School junior Jack Hall while looking through the store’s offerings. “They have some cool stuff and its something to do while I’m in school.” That comment outlines the Chaska High School’s Booster Club’s efforts to inject energy and support into activities and athletics at the school. “We’re making an ongoing effort to branch out in various areas, from students and their families, to local vendors, to build support for the high school in our community,” said Booster Club President Larry Doran. On the student and family front, the club opened a school store, called the “Hawk Shop” at the end of last school year and have expanded its hours and offerings this school year. The shop is now stocked with many new clothing options. “We have a new and exciting inventory that we were able to
purchase through the sales of old inventory, primarily in a blow-out sale of the end of last year,” said club Vice President JoAnne Vertin. Located in unused space in the high school’s Red House and run by club members, the store basically has no operation costs to the club. And the club plans to keep merchandise options fresh for students and others. “We’ll be breaking out some pink T-shirts for breast cancer awareness, but they’re under top secret storage right now,” said Doran. Community members can go to the store during its operating hours by visiting the school office and getting a pass just like any other visitor. There are other options to access the school store merchandise as well. The club operates stands at many extracurricular events and Doran said an online option is in the works. “We’re about a month away from having the online ordering option on our website,” he said. Another club initiative is painting the Hawk logo on over 225 local driveways, in its “Paint the Town” effort begun last year. And the club is developing an athlete/activity of the month to bring more notice to these students. The club also raises money through its membership base. Current membership levels include 28 participants at the $250 “Gold” level; 19 at the $135 “Black” level; 24 at the $100 “Purple” level; and 3 at the $25

The money raised from all these efforts goes directly to helping various students, activities and sports teams at the high school. Last year, the club gave $25,000 back to the high school, in the form of $23,000 in equipment and $2,000 in scholarships. The clubs fundraising efforts has its attention on shelter facilities at the school’s tennis courts and the soccer field at Chaska Middle School West. “The students don’t have any options to keep their belongings when the weather turns wet and cold at either location,” said Doran.
Chan High still exceeds Chaska in math scores BY CHUCK FRIEDBAUER friedchu@yahoo.com
Results from last spring’s Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments (MCA) indicate local District 112 students score significantly better than their peers. While the recently released results follow trends seen in past years, there are a few areas district officials say need further attention. “Across the district, we feel very good about where our students are in terms of reading and writing,” said District 112 coordinator of curriculum and instruction Cathy Gallagher. “And while our math results are good, we still have more work to do, especially at Chaska High School and at our elementary levels.” Gal lagher said she feels District 112 results should be higher than state results by double digits. “And where they are not, that is where we have work to do,” she said.
HIGH SCHOOL Gallagher said the district is delighted to see reading results equal between Chaska and Chanhassen High School. “The resource changes in our English classes and secondary redesign coursework has supported the students’ growth there,” she said. Math results in 2010 indicated a significant difference between Chanhassen and Chaska students. While the difference decreased in 2011, the discrepancy is still not acceptable, said Gallagher. “Last year, we found students who had taken courses beyond Algebra II did significantly better on the MCA test,” Gallagher said. In 2010-11, 74 percent of Chanhas-
sen 11th graders chose to take additional advanced courses beyond Algebra II, while only 48 percent of Chaska High School decided to take additional advanced math courses beyond Algebra II, according to Gallagher. Beginning with this year’s 11th graders, the requirements have changed. “Students are now required to take an additional math class beyond Algebra II,” Gallagher said. District 112 secondary curriculum coordinator Nancy Thul said she believes the math discrepancy is solvable. “We’ve seen the reading discrepancy go away this year so I believe we can do it in math too,” she said. “We have additional resources in place for various math labs to help with specific needs and the secondary redesign changes will help immensely as well.”
MIDDLE SCHOOL District officials are very pleased with the results at the middle school level, particularly with the math test. This year was the first year middle school students took the MCA-III test, which is a more rigorous test than the MCA-II test taken in previous years. Dist rict of f icia ls advise against comparing this year’s results to past years because of the test changes. The MCAIII test is designed against the higher standards of the 2007 Minnesota Mathematics Academic Standards and Collegeand Career-ready internationally benchmarked standards. In addition, the test was given online for the fi rst time. “With our secondary redesign, we essentially dropped our sixth-grade course, moved everything down one grade by requiring students to take Algebra I by eighth-grade,” said Thul. “And we are seeing positive results in our test scores.” The district’s requirement of students to take Algebra I by eighth-grade aligns with state standards. Minnesota is the only state in the country with
that requirement.
ELEMENTARY SCHOOL As with the other grade levels, district officials are pleased with elementary student reading scores. But they are surprised at lower levels in math. The district averages for students in grades three through five were only 1 to 6 percent higher than state averages. “We did anticipate our students would perform better on the MCA-III test than they did,” said Gallagher. “We have a team of elementary teachers meeting this week to look at our curriculum mapping and standards to make sure we are appropriately preparing our students.” Gallagher said the district has learned the fact the MCAIII is given online instead of with pencil and paper may have challenged the students more than expected. “The elementary students have had less opportunities with online assessments,” she said. “The online test was more involved with multiple stepsolving problems, so we will investigate how we can have our students practice those real-life applications online.” Thul said it is important to remember that at all grades, the MCA tests are only one piece of the puzzle. “They are only one measure we use, when combined with other tests and teacher observations, to round out how to teach our students,” she said.

Ladies Man Plain White T’s front man is a sucker for love BY MOLLEE FRANCISCO mfrancisco@swpub.com
T
om Higgenson knows just how to make the ladies feel special. The lead singer of the Chicago-based Plain White T’s is well-schooled in the art of compliments and doesn’t hesitate to serve up a fresh one when asked about his previous trips to Minneapolis. “I thought Minneapolis had the most beautiful people,” he said in a phone interview. “It might have been something in the water but I fell in love with like five girls there.” Higgenson will bring his smooth talking style back to Minneapolis on Sunday, Sept. 25 as part of the Plain White T’s fall headlining tour. The alternative pop group hits the stage at the Fine Line at 8 p.m. with doors opening at 7 p.m. for the 18-plus show.
HOPELESS ROMANTIC It was that same hopeless romantic persona that pushed Higgenson’s group into the spotlight in 2007 with their breakout hit “Hey There Delilah.” Higgenson penned the melodic love song about a woman he had met named Delilah DeCrescenzo, but never thought it would make it to radio. “It was a little song,” he said, noting the sparse arrangement. “Everything that radio wasn’t at the time.” But the public ate it up, pushing the song to No. 1 on the music charts and earning the Plain White T’s two Grammy nods. Higgenson celebrated by inviting DeCrescenzo to be his date to the awards ceremony (as friends). The Plain White T’s didn’t pick up any Grammys for “Hey There Delilah” that year, but by then, the song had already etched its place in the alt pop music canon, spawning both covers and parodies (Higgenson’s favorite parody is “Hey There Vagina.” “It was clever and well done,” he said.) “‘Hey There Delilah’ is one of

“WONDERS OF THE YOUNGER” Today, the Plain White T’s are out on the road in support of their fifth studio album “Wonders of the Younger” which has already garnered a hit with the beachy “Rhythm of Love.” Higgenson calls “Wonders of the
Lead singer Plain White T’s
Younger” a “nostalgic record.” “It’s about growing up and not losing your sense of adventure,” he said. Higgenson, who writes most of the group’s tunes, says he finds inspiration everywhere, but mostly from girls he meets and life
situations. “I’m always working and writing,” he said. Whether any of those ladies or life situations will lead to another monster hit a la “Hey There Delilah,” remains to be seen. But Higgenson is OK with that. “As long as they come pretty darn close.”
‘The Mindset Lists of American History’ When did girls leave school in 1898? What year did zippers become standard? Which was the last generation to dial a phone? New book traces trivia through the generations Last week, something happened that hasn’t happened in you-don’tknow-how-long ago. You got a letter. Hand-written on paper. Brought to your house in an envelope with a stamp. And it wasn’t asking for money, giving you doctor’s results, or telling you that garbage pickup day got changed. It was from someone who was “thinking of you.” These days, a letter in the mail is something so rare that it makes you really notice. But in your mother’s day, sending letters was common and easier than making a phone call. In the new book “The Mindset Lists of American History” by Tom McBride & Ron Nief, you’ll read about those and other generational markers. Sometimes, when you look at the state of the world today, you almost wish for a vacation back in time. But be careful what you ask for… As an 18-year-old in 1898, Great-
Terri
SCHLICHENMEYER THE BOOKWORM
Great-Grandma had already seen many of her peers leave school before puberty. The lucky few who attended college became doctors, perhaps, in order to cure deadly diseases not yet identified, but overall, higher education was unlikely. Instead, people went to work. Unmarried women might find office employment, and the new QWERTY
typewriter. They could type, but they couldn’t vote. Fast forward. Great-Grandpa, born in 1900, might have skipped high school to work twelve-hour days, seven days a week in a factory. After four days, he’d have enough money to buy a few groceries. But times were improving: politicians had long been lobbying for national health care and automobiles were becoming a means of real transportation rather than just a hobby. Fast forward. By the time Dad was born in 1939, he could count on zippers to keep his coat on and radio drama to make his heart pound. Upon graduation from high school, he’d seen scrap drives, victory gardens, and the invention of ballpoint pens, and though his parents complained about tax withholding from their paychecks, they got a deal on his college tuition: it
cost them a whopping $2,0000 for four years’ matriculation. Fast forward. This years’ n college freshman have probably never dialed a telephone. Computers have always been portable, TVs have always been flat and “friend” is both verb and noun. For them, there’s always been Disneyland, MTV and HIV. Fast forward. Authors Tom McBride & Ron Nief have consolidated just about everything you’d find fascinating
about pop culture in t past 113 the y years, they’ve d done it with li lists and short n narratives and th they’ve done it in one lively bo book. This is a ja jaw-dropping, ye lighthearted yet rea that puts read ple plenty of things int perspective into and I couldn’t put d it down. I you’re If tr a trivia fan, hi a historian, Boo Boomer, or love of unique lover know knowledge, I think you’ll enjoy it too. to In fact, it, “The Mindset Lists of American History” should earn an “A.”

Belle is a 7 month old Collie/ Lab mix, 35 pounds, who is active, friendly and playful! She walks on a leash, rides well in the car, and walks to the door to let you know she has to go out! Working on basic obedience, she is still a playful puppy (favorite game is fetch) and may be too much for toddlers and small children. As such, a fenced yard (or invisible fence) is required so she can get her daily exercise. Belle is updated on vaccinations, tested negative for heart worm, has a microchip ID implant and is spayed. Her adoption fee is $225. F o r m o r e i n fo r m at io n , contact (952) 368-7297, ext. 2; swmetroanimalrescue @hotmail.com; or www.swmetroanimalrescue.org.

COMMENTARY
It’s very simple: God is love BY SRI HAROLD KLEMP
Everybody knows that God is love. It’s very easy to say. But if people who say they believe this principle would hold to it and practice it in their everyday lives, this would be a better world. T his is t he mai n divi ne law of all laws: simply, God is love. The second of the two great laws is: Soul exists because God loves it. And that’s it. The information age has opened up so many subjects that used to be taboo. Not so many years ago, dreams were held in very low regard. But now people are starting to accept dreams. Television has broadcast so many shows about nea r- deat h experiences t h at p e ople a r e get t i n g quite accustomed to hearing about light, beings of light, and modern manifestations of angels. They don’t need to rely on someone’s account of a saint who lived three centuries ago or more. One morning I was up at four o’clock, and the host on one of the local radio stations told about a dream experience he had had just a short time before. He called it a profound dream. He’d been having fi nancial difficulties, and he didn’t know quite how to resolve them. So he went on a camping trip with a friend, because when he got to the great outdoors, he felt he was in God’s garden. It gave him a chance to get away from the hustle and bustle of everyday living and look at himself, re-examine his values, and see who and what he really was. One night while out camping, he had a dream with his depar ted g randmother. He woke up in the dream, and she was in the kitchen. She handed him a catalog. She pointed to it, saying, “It can solve your fi nancial problems.” When he woke up he told his friend about this dream, then forgot all about it. But his financial worries were still troubling him. All he needed was about $2,000 to resolve them. Then he remembered the catalog
that his grandmother had show n hi m in the dream. T here was a circle around t he pic t u r e of an Italian motorbike, a Lambretta. It Harold was just like Klemp the old one he had in the garage. But it didn’t make any sense. Two months later, the man was talking to someone, and he happened to mention that he had this old motorbike sitting in the garage. He hadn’t u s e d it for years, but it was in good condition. T he friend asked hi m what kind it was. “A Lambr et t a ,” he said. “What year?” When the man told him, his friend said, “That thing’s wor th about two thousand dollars.” All of a sudden the man said, “Two thousand — the magic number.” And just that quickly his dream came back to him. This is how the spiritual truths are making their way out into today’s society. Why did his grandmother help him? Because she loved him. We come back to the principle: God is love. And the second one: Soul exists because God loves it. Because God loves soul, souls should love each other. Or as Christ said, “Love thy neighbor as thyself.” He didn’t say to hate yourself, wear a hair shirt, and treat your neighbor better than yourself. No, he was speaking about soul to souls. He was telling them, “You are God’s creation. But so is your neighbor.” This is a point that has been missed in so many religious teachings in churches today. Love yourself because God loves you, and love your neighbor as yourself. It’s very simple. Sri Harold Klemp is the Living ECK Master and spiritual leader of Eckankar. He will be speaking at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 22, at the Minneapolis Convention Center as part of the 2011 ECK Worldwide Seminar.
Love yourself because God loves you, and love your neighbor as yourself.

PUBLIC SAFETY
County urges safety plans as part of preparedness month Carver County has committed to participate in National Preparedness Month in September, an event founded after 9/11 to increase preparedness across the U.S., according to a Carver County press release. During National Preparedness Month, Carver County residents are encouraged to follow three important steps to better prepare themselves for a local emergency: Make emergency supply kits Make a plan for what to do in an emergency Be informed about emergencies that could happen in our area, and identify sources of information in our communities that will be helpful before, during, and after an emergency “Preparedness is a shared responsibility; it takes a whole community. The more prepared we are, as a community, the more resilient we are in times of emergency” said Ken Carlson, Emergency Management Director for Carver County. “Individuals are often the fi rst to take life-saving action in an emergency. Having prepared citizens can save time and lives.” Carlson encourages individuals and their
families to make emergency plans for people and pets, determine how they will communicate with family members if separated, and have copies of important documents with their emergency plan. Emergency supply kits should contain essential items to support a household for up to three days. Residents in Carver County are encouraged to visit readycarver.org. This site provides current information on preparedness, the types of emergencies faced in Carver County, resources to help citizens get ready, and connections to some of the many organizations involved in preparedness efforts in Carver County.
BUSINESS PLAN Businesses and organizations are also encouraged to look at their emergency plans to make sure they are ready should an emergency affect their facility and employees. According to the Federal Emergency Management Administration (FEMA), between 15 percent and 40 percent of businesses closed by emergencies do not reopen afterwards. Carlson urges businesses
in the county to develop new plans or update old ones so they do not become a statistic. “Businesses can become more resilient by developing an Emergency Response Plan, sharing the plan with staff, and exercising aspects of the plan on a regular basis,” stated Carlson, in a Carver County press release. “The plan is a guide for business continuity, and should help g uide the organization through the emergency so they can get back to normal operations” Every year Minnesota experiences emergencies, both large and small. Incidents can cause prolonged power outages and disruption of services. Business facilities may be severely damaged or destroyed. Communication with employees may be difficult. Business leaders should determine what is critical for their operations to continue. Carlson recommends that they assess internal and external functions to determine which staff, materials, procedures, equipment and suppliers are absolutely necessary to keep the business operating. Make backup copies of important busi ness i n for mation a nd store this offsite.
Leaders should detail how they will communicate with employees, local authorities, customers and others during and after a disaster. Resources to assist businesses can be found at ready.gov/business. Additional information can be found at readycarver.org or www.co.carver.mn.us.
MEETINGS On Sept. 29, Carver County Emergency Management will host Hazard Mitigation Planning Update meetings that are open to the public. The same agenda will be used so citizens may attend either session: 1 p.m. at the Government Center, Township Hall, 600 East Fourth Street, Chaska; or the 6 p.m. session at Carver County Public Works Headquarters, Public Works Con ference Room 1, 113 6 0 Highway 212 West in Cologne. No RSVP needed. Walk in registration begins 15 minutes prior to start time. For information about preparing your family, neighborhood or school and more about National Preparedness Month, visit readycarver.org, listocarver.org (Español), and the Carver County website, www. co.carver.mn.us.

Carver levy approved
UP IT GOES
BY MARK W. OLSON editor@chaskaherald.com
The Carver levy will increase slightly in 2012 – from $1,855,575 to $1,870,647. However, when accounting for the state’s fiscal disparities program, the net levy will actually drop by 4 percent – from $1,685,825 to $1,618,242, according to the city of Carver. The estimated city of Carver taxes on a $200,000 home will be $17 less – $1,040 in 2012, compared to $1,057 last year. The Carver City Council passed the preliminary levy on Sept. 6. The levy can be reduced, but can’t be raised higher than the approved amount. The truth-in-taxation meeting will be held Dec. 5, and a fi nal levy will be approved two weeks later. The 2012 city budget is $1,860,506. The city is anticipating a 2 percent salary increase for staff. “We haven’t come to an agreement with our union, but that’s what‘s on the table now,” said City Administrator Brent Mareck. Meanwhile, health insurance premiums for city employees have dropped by 5 percent. The new budget includes $22,000 to continue funding an extra Carver County Sheriff’s deputy patrol during summer months. There is also $20,000 in the 2012 budget that will be used toward the $65,000 Lions Park tennis court reconstruction project.

New Environmental Center canopy helps drive traffic
BIRTHS
BY RICHARD CRAWFORD editor@chanvillager.com
Alexis Johnson
Johnson Chris and Jessica Johnson, of Rockford, Minn., announce the birth of their daughter Alexis Lori Johnson, on July 13, 2011 in Buffalo, Minn. Alexis weighed 9 pounds, 5 ounces and was 21 inches long, with blue eyes and dark brown hair. Her grandparents are Phil and Myra Johnson, of Minnetonka; and Rick and Kim Lano, of Chaska.
Visitors to the Carver County Environmental Center now have a new canopy overhead to make dropping off waste and recyclable materials a bit more convenient. The new canopy, located on the south side of the facility, was installed this summer at a cost of $125,000. Mike Lein, environmental services manager, said the canopy has made the flow of traffic at the site better and provides protection from the elements for residents as they drop off their materials. Use of the facility has shown steady growth since it opened in 2002, with the number of visitors expected to reach about 25,000 again this year, Lein said. The canopy has been operational for several weeks and is getting positive reviews from the public and workers at the Environmental Center. Many people who use the site for such things as dropping off household hazardous waste or small electronics don’t need to leave their vehicles, Lien said. Staff will help unload the materials. Lein said the canopy has been a long time in the making.
Carver County Environmental Center Location: 116 Peavey Circle, Chaska Background: The center opened in July 2002. It serves as a year-round, one-stop collection site for household hazardous waste, special wastes, and a wide variety of recyclable materials. New canopy: Added to make receiving materials safer, more efficient and customer friendly — especially during bad weather. PHOTO BY RICHARD CRAWFORD
A new canopy over the drive-through area recently was constructed at the Carver County Environmental Center at 116 Peavey Circle in Chaska. It was originally envisioned to be part of the original construction. Until this fall, the site was the only one of its kind in the metro area without a canopy, he said.

explore the “treasures” within, as part of the “Climbing with the Angels” tour. “I’ve been here for 75 years,” said Hammers, who will serve as one of the tour guides. “You look up and you wonder, ‘Who are these people?’” The tours will answer those questions as visitors are enlightened with information on the church’s statues and altars, as well as the massive pipe organ. “Hopefully they’ll have a greater appreciation of what we have here,” said Weber, who will also be on hand to answer questions Saturday. “It’s an unusual church in many ways.” “It’s a beautiful church,” added Hammers.
PIPE ORGAN In preparing for Angelfest, Hammers and Weber became experts on the church’s pipe organ. The organ, which looms high above parishioners in the choir loft, was built by the Wisconsin Pipe Organ Factory in
www.auburnhomes.org

ANGELFEST
1903. It cost $2,200 at the time. The organ has 906 metal and wooden pipes with each pipe producing a single note when air passes through. Guardian A ngels organist (and director of worship) Theresa Schmidt uses a combination of organ keys, pedals and a series of stops (knobs that dictate the instrumental sound) to produce music. “The pipe organ, it’s an art form,” said Weber. Hammers likes the organ for its versatility. “You can produce such a variety of sounds,” he said. “It’s more dramatic than the piano. Both agree that the organ is an integral part of the Guardian Angels church experience. “It can inspire us as a solo instrument, as an accompaniment to our great choirs and in leading us in songs of worship,” said Hammers. “It elevates the soul,” he added.

VOLLEYBALL
GIRLS SOCCER
Better defense, better attack for Hawks BY ERIC KRAUSHAR scores@swpub.com
Southwest Christian was the better team at times Tuesday night at Chaska High School. In fact, at times in all seven matches, Stars coach Greg Sayuk could say the same statement. Playing up against stronger competition from higher classes of volleyball, Southwest Christian couldn’t keep pace, falling to Chaska 25-22, 25-13 and 25-22 in a non-conference match. After starting the season with a 4-0 record, the Stars are now 4-3 following defeats to Jordan in five games and three-game sweeps by Chanhassen and Chaska. “One of the things we talked about in the locker room is we have some really good skill players. We have a lot of girls that can come off the bench and contribute. What we need to work on sometimes isn’t skills, but rather their heads,” Sayuk said. “The way we get better at that is put them through some pretty intense situational drills in practice and playing the Jordans, Chanhassens and Chaskas.” “Realistically, if we lose our fi nal 25 matches and went into the playoffs 3-28, it really doesn’t matter because everyone makes the playoffs. And if we get better from doing that, that’s what we’re shooting for,” the Stars coach added. The difference at times was the better consistency from the Hawks defense, which set up freshman Makayla Wenzel for more assists and allowed Chaska to play more in their offensive system. Southwest Christian was scrappy, especially in games one and three, but couldn’t get the offense going in key moments. “Every game it’s important to get that first pass. That starts off each play and you can react better when that fi rst pass gets to the setter. We’ve been working hard on serve receive and defense in practice and for us to come out and play a good defensive match was very nice,” said Chaska senior Kylie Seiffert. Seiffert returned to a familiar role Tuesday, wearing the libero jersey for the fi rst time since the opening week of the season. With sophomore Allie Duenow out with a knee injury, the senior captain helped control the back row. Seiffert led all Hawk defenders with 16 digs. “Every game I have to get better. Obviously (Coach Sue Murphy) isn’t afraid to take me out if I’m not playing my game. She says that to everyone. We have a lot of girls that can take our positions if we don’t get it done,” she said. Chaska jumped out to a 14-5 lead in game one by staying in system and forcing the Stars out of theirs. Southwest Christian regrouped to make things interesting, shrinking a once nine-point lead to 24-22, but a blocking error at the net gave the Hawks the early lead. The Stars gained an advan-

tage in game two at 12-10 in large part due to play of hitters Lydia Palkert and Mackenzie Horkey. But when the offense went quiet, Chaska took advantage. Seiffert served 11 straight times to finish off the Stars 25-13 in game two. “I haven’t served all season and for Sue to say ‘go ahead and serve,’ I was really excited,” Seiffert said. “But you do get tired serving that many. Sue told me not to go into the huddle, just go back right away. You just try to stay positive and put the ball in the spot the coaches are telling us.”
Seiffert added two of her team-high five aces to give the Hawks a 19-13 lead in game three, but Southwest Christian was relentless, grabbing a 20-19 lead on a setting error. The lead grew to 22-20 before Chaska ran off five straight points to secure the match. Senior Kelly Riesgraf had a pair of key kills during the late run, while Erin Schindler also had a kill at 24-22. Schindler was the team leader with nine kills followed by Sydney Franz with eight and Riesgraf with six. Wenzel added 28 set assists, while Aimee Junget chipped in 15 digs and three aces. Chaska (6 - 6) was coming off a 3-0 loss to No. 3-ranked Shakopee Sept. 15. The scores were 27-25, 25 -19 and 25 -20. Individual statistics were not made available.
A WEEKEND FULL OF TALENTED TEAMS Southwest Christian will try to halt its current threematch losing streak this weekend in the Class A Showcase at Bethel University in Arden Hi l ls. The Stars are again the host of the two-day affair, which gets under way at 5 p.m. Friday. The No. 6-ranked Stars are in a pool with Rushford-Peterson, Onamia and No. 10-ranked Win-E-Mac. “The girls had a goal of where they want to place in the showcase and we’re going to try to do everything we can to do that,” Sayuk said. “What it all comes down is we want to get better with every match.” Among the top competition will be No. 2 Mayer Lutheran, No. 4 Nevis, No. 7 Canby and No. 11 MACCRAY.
With wind gusts topping 40 mph at times, the battle for field position was at the hands of Mother Nature. Shakopee better capitalized, scoring two goals with the wind in a 2-1 defeat of Chaska, who is 1-4-1 on the season. Trailing at halftime, the Sabers peppered Hawks sophomore goaltender Alyssa Phillips with shot after shot in the second half. Despite making 15 saves over the 40 fi nal minutes, Shakopee was able to score two goals. Freshman Roxanne Roemer scored the equalizer in the 47th minute on a long shot that sailed over the outstretched hands of Phillips into the top right corner of the net. After countless missed opportunities, Shakopee, which is off to a 1-0-1 start in the Missota Conference, got the gamewinner off the head of Gracie Vaughan with 15:55 to play. Chaska, which possessed the ball on Shakopee’s side of the field less than five minutes total in the second half, couldn’t generate any offense to tie the match. One last spurt with three minutes to play saw a Sabers defender clear the ball out of the box back to midfield. The Hawks took the game’s first lead during a back-andforth first half. Senior captain Cassidy Brougham, who earlier in the game just missed high with a long shot attempt, connected on her second goal of the season with 3:35 in the stanza. Shakopee goaltender Amy Menke played a ball in the box and on her ensuing boot, the ball went right to Brougham, who struck the ball past a diving Menke for the 1-0 lead.

Both teams had excellent chances in the fi rst half with Menke gloving a Sydney McClure attempt off a long pass from Sarah Wagman. Sabers’ Samantha Verbeke had a wide open shot in the box sail wide left midway through the half. Shakopee dominated the second half behind a strong wind that didn’t allow Chaska to push the ball forward. The Hawks, which had two shots on net all night, were held shotless during the final 40 minutes. Chaska is at winless New Prague (0-9-1) on Thursday.
TOUGH LOSS IN THE FINAL SECONDS Chaska traveled to Northfield Sept. 15 looking to build off a 3-0 loss to Lakeville South in a previous match. The game started off very intense with a hand ball in the box, giving the Raiders a penalty kick. Thankfully for the Hawks, Northfield missed one of their best opportunities in the game. After playing two intense 40-minute halves, the Hawks and Raiders were tied 0at zero. The game went into two five-minute halves of overtime. The Hawks fought hard in the ten minutes of overtime, but Northfield senior Elle Dykema, a University of Minnesota recruit, scored with 50 seconds remaining in the contest. Chaska student manager Megan Ashpole contributed to this report.

Unbeaten Sabers have a field day on offense

Nick Jensen completed 16-of-31 passes for 177 yards and two touchdowns in Chaska’s 49-22 loss to Shakopee.
After getting a close win last week against Chanhassen, Shakopee reminded everybody that it’s the team to beat in the Missota Conference on Friday night. The Sabers used a killer running attack to run over the Hawks for a 49-22 victory at Vaughan Field in Shakopee. Shakopee rolled up more than 350 yards rushing in the first half alone as they went into the locker room leading 35-0. The Sabers f inished the game with 543 total yards to Chaska’s 370. The second half saw Chaska score three times to Shakopee’s two touchdowns, but by than the game was pretty much
decided. Hawks quarterback Nick Jensen found receivers Kolby Seiffert and Austin Arnhold for scores. Jensen completed 16-of-31 passes for 177 yards and one interception. Brandon Ploen led Chaska receivers with four catches for 47 yards. Garrett Paulzine also added a touchdown run of 49 yards in the third quarter for the Hawks. As a team, Chaska rushed 29 times for 193 yards with six backs chipping in at least 25 yards for the game. Shakopee senior running back Jordan Gunhus did most of the damage for the Sabers as he scored three touchdowns in less than seven minutes
to turn a 14-0 lead into a 35-0 lead. All three touchdowns came on the same play – a hand off from quarterback Zak Hoffman with a sweep to the left, letting his blockers do their work and than walking into the end zone. Gunhus’ final touchdown went for 78 yards, giving him over 150 yards in the second quarter alone. Nick McBeain started the scoring on a long touchdown run in the fi rst quarter. Hoffman made it 14-0 on a long run of his own and than came the Gunhus highlight show in the second quarter. Shakopee only passed the ball twice in the fi rst half but
still gained over 350 yards during the fi rst 24 minutes. Lucas Ward led the Chaska defense with 10 tackles, while Jacob Ostby had an interception. The Hawks (1-2) travel to winless New Prague at 7 p.m. Friday. The Trojans have allowed 142 points in losses to No. 1-ranked Mankato West, Holy Angels and Northfield.
SLOW START, FAST FINISH FOR FIRE Holy Family Catholic just needed a big play to get it going. Trailing 12-0 late in the first quarter, new tight end Michael Fritz scored a 30-yard touchdown from quarterback Michael Roane. It was the start
of 40 unanswered points in a 40-12 win over New Ulm Friday in Victoria. Fritz moved from center to tight end last week in anticipation of playing the position during the game and the move paid off. The returning senior rushed for 28 yards and caught four passes for 83 yards and the touchdown. The No.-3 ranked Fire are off to a 3-0 start after posting victories over Watertown-Mayer and Escanaba (Mich.) the fi rst two weeks of the season. Holy Family hosts New London-Spicer at 7 p.m. Friday. The Wildcats are also 3-0 with victories over Paynesville, Morris Area and Minnewaska Area.

OUTDOORS
Banding together to understand raptor habits
PHOTO BY STAN TEKIELA
The Merlin falcon is one of the raptors that can be seen at Hawk Ridge in Duluth.
The morning broke clear and crisp. Another pictureperfect autumn morning in one of my favorite places. Stepping from my truck I could see the sun was just about to emerge over the watery horizon of Lake Superior. Hiking a short distance up a trail in the woods, then scrambling up some large rocks, I reached a small clearing that gave me an unobstructed view of the “big lake” just as the sun breached the horizon. Standing there in the cool morning air I could see my breath and feel the warmth of the fi rst rays of sun warming my face. I let my mind wander back in time to the hundreds of times I stood in this exact spot and watched the sun rise. I am thinking about the past 20 plus years I’ve spent coming to Hawk Ridge in Duluth, Minnesota. As a biologist, this is a one of the top spots in the entire country to witness a high volume of migrating hawks. As a wildlife photographer, the ridge — as many of us call it — is unsurpassed for photography. I h ave s o m a ny i nc r e d ible memories from the past couple decades of good friends and great photography at the ridge. This time I am here not to photograph by to give a talk about birds at the Hawk Ridge weekend celebration. Hundreds of bird watchers from around the nation gather at the ridge for a weekend to share knowledge and reestablish friendships. The night before, Professor Jerry Niemi presented a wonderful overview of the past 39 years of hawk banding at the ridge. For those of you who don’t know what hawk banding is, let me explain.
HAWKS ROUNDUP
Stan
TEKIELA NATURE SMART
Migrating hawks are lured into traps where researchers grab the birds without causing any harm. A series of measurements are taken, the bird’s age and sex are determined, and a metal band containing a unique identifying number is affi xed to the bird’s leg. All of this takes just a few minutes and the bird is released back into the wild and it continues on its way south. Meanwhile at another location, hawk counters are watching and counting the total number of birds that fly over the ridge. Professor Niemi pulled together some amazing statistics from all of this banding and watching of hawks. During the past 39 years that banding and counting has taken place at the ridge, more than 2 million hawks have been counted on their migration south. That averages to about 80,000 birds per season. This includes 27 different raptor species; of these, 23 species have been caught and banded. From 1972 to 2010 more than 100,000 individual hawks have been caught and banded at a separate location away from the hawk counters and watchers along with the crowds of people that come to witness
this autumn spectacle. Tucked away back in the woods, the hawk banders toil away catching hawks. Of the 100,000 hawks that have been caught, 60,000 h ave b e en sh a r p - sh i n ne d hawks. If you are not familiar with the sharp-shinned hawk, it is a small woodland hawk that is the second most common hawk species to fly over Duluth’s Hawk Ridge. At this point you might be asking yourself why they band the hawks. The short answer is research. The only way to obtain any kind of information, such as where the hawks go, how long it takes to get there, how long do the birds live, comes from banding. Now here is the sobering news. Of the 60,000 sharp-shins that have been banding at the ridge during the past four decades, only 327 birds with bands have been recovered. This is a normal recovery rate for bird banding, but it illustrates the difficulty in obtaining good information when doing field research. A huge effort must be made to obtain even a tiny bit of information. The dedication of these people who band and count the birds at the ridge has contributed mountains of information that otherwise would not be known about many raptor species. This group of amazing people goes unnoticed by the general public but their work contributes greatly to the overall scientific knowledge. My hat goes off to these marvelous people.

The deciding match was at No. 2 doubles where Werch and Forbrook lost 5 -7, 6 -2, and 7-6. New Prague’s Anna Hanson and Megan Hoffman won the third-set tie-break by a score of 9-7. “Rachel and Bri played every point like they were just starting the match. They did so awesome. Despite losing I was so proud and was a true testament to how far we have come,” Chaska coach Megan Williams said. Shakopee won all seven matches in straight sets, but the Hawks did force set tiebreakers at second and third doubles. Passolt and Reineke were also competitive in singles against the Sabers, who entered this week tied with Red Wing at 3-0 in the Missota. The Hawks, which fell to 0-4 in the Missota Tuesday in a 7-0 loss to Red Wing, travel to Chanhassen at 4:15 p.m. Thursday.

FAMILY OWNED SINCE 1965
Author Wendy Webb speaks at 1 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 24 at the Chanhassen Library. Webb is the award-winning author of the haunting ghost story, “The Tale of Halcyon Crane” According to Webb’s website, she grew up in St. Louis Park (also the hometown of directors Joel and Ethan Coen and comedian-turned-politician Al Franken). She attended the University of Minnesot a , g r aduating with a degree in political science. A fter spending some time living abroad, Wendy Wendy settled Webb into a job in Washington, D.C., where she was lucky enough to work on Capitol Hill for a senator from her state. Home was calling, though, and after a few years in D.C., she moved back to Minnesota and decided to try a career using what she felt was her most marketable skill: writing. She got an internship at City Pages, an arts and entertainment weekly in Minneapolis, and never looked back. During the past 20 years or so, she has written for most of the major publications in the Twin Cities. She lives in the Lake Superior port city of Duluth, where she is the editorin-chief of Duluth-Superior Magazine, a lifestyle monthly. When she’s not writing, she and her mate, photographer Steve Burmeister, and son Ben enjoy spending time at their cabin in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, walking their 130-pound Alaskan M a l a mute n a med T u nd ra, and visiting with family and friends in Minneapolis. I asked Wendy some questions: Q: I suppose the obvious question is: do you believe in ghosts? Have you ever seen one? A: I do believe in ghosts. I’m not sure if I’ve ever seen one but I have had a couple of strange experiences that I haven’t been able to explain any other way. One of the best things about doing this book tour, meeting with reading groups and speaking at libraries is the conversation always turns to ghost stories, and I’ve found that most everyone has a story of a strange, otherworldly experience that they can’t quite explain. Q: Are you working on a new book? A: I’ve just fi nished it, and it’s in my agent’s hands right now. It’s similar in tone to Halcyon, an eerie setting, a mystery involving family, a few ghosts. I’m excited about it and it should be out this next year. Q: You won the MN Book Award for “Genre Fiction”with The Tale of Halycon Crane. What does this award mean to you? A: To be recognized with such a prestigious award for my first novel means the world to me. It’s humbling and thrilling all at the same time. I’ve wanted to be an author since I was about 13 years old, and winning this award is a wonderful affi rmation of all the time and energy trying to achieve that goal. I was stunned to even be among the finalists, and really wasn’t expecting to win, and when they called my name that night, it was surreal. My parents, my son, my spouse and my best friends were at the awards ceremony with me, and sharing the experience with them was among the best moments in my life. Q: What are you reading right now? A: I have just discovered the Inspector Gamache mystery series by Canadian author Louise Penny. She has, I believe, six books out now, all featuring Armand Gamache, the chief homicide inspector for the Quebec police. These are old fashioned whodunnit-type mysteries fi lled with fantastic

I just love them. Q: What were your favorite books as a child? A: My favorite book growing up was “A Wrinkle in Time” by Madeline L’Engle. I fi rst read it when I was about 13 years old and when I was fi nished with it, I knew what I wanted to do for a living — write stories like that one. Q: You grew up in St. Louis Park, and are currently living in Duluth, and working as the editor-in-chief of DuluthSuperior Magazine, a lifestyle monthly. What would your dream job be, if you could not be a journalist or author? A: I love this question! If I weren’t an author and an editor, I’d love to have spent my life as an archaeologist working on digs in Egypt or a detective solving mysteries. Q: Do you have any good library anecdotes? A favorite library, one you liked as a child? A: My favorite libraries were the ones in St. Louis Park where I spent lots of time growing up, or the old Minneapolis Public Library, where I spent many, many hours researching stories in my early career as a journalist before the Internet came along, or the library at the U of M Q: What role do you see for libraries in the future? A: In addition to being the place to check out books and CDs, I see libraries today as a one-stop location where people can fi nd any sort of information they’re looking for. I was surprised to see all of the different programs at the Duluth library and I’m sure it’s the same statewide.
