INDEPENDENT BRIDGE TO THE MINI-MET

Bridging the creek on time Clock ticks for railroad crossing BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

High school senior Sarah Hanek said she’s been excited to take on the extra work of being student director of “Don’t Look Down.”

Hanek learns to lead

Access to the ballpark won’t be cut off after all. Jordan City Engineer Tim Loose released an updated schedule, including a month leeway at the end of the year, for const r uction of a new bridge to the Mini-Met ballpark on Tuesday. In downtown Jordan, Rice Street spans Sand Creek via a recycled-steel bridge erected in 1936. Since a few years ago, when the state deemed the structure insufficient, the Jordan City Council has sought to replace it, settling recently on a $1 million pier-style bridge with facades that look like Kasota stone, acorn-shaped streetlights, and ornamental green railings.

When city officials found out about the bridge’s 32.5 rating on a scale of 100, they shut down the bridge to garbage trucks, beer trucks and team buses that frequent the Mini-Met. Any rating below 80 constitutes a deficient bridge, according to the Minnesota Department of Transportation. The city swung a deal for a $ 60,000-plus auxiliary access between Park Drive and the ballpark, over the Union Pacific Railroad tracks. But the agreement expires on Dec. 31, 2012. City engineers have worked hard at resolving the issue, but in the back of their minds was the ultimate consequence for a baseball town: Would the ballpark be forced to close?

As other proposals for a new Vikings stadium faced increasing scrutiny and the governor enforced last week’s deadline for all plans, new Shakopee Mayor Brad Tabke spoke with SavetheVikes.org founder Cory Merrifield. Two days later, a plan was hatched to bring the Vikings to Shakopee. Earlier this month, the pair huddled over a table at Perkins Restaurant for hours with the local chamber of commerce

Lawnmowing can be a cause for celebration – when it’s in January. Kay Hartman of Jordan executes one last cut on Jan. 10, when the temperature reached 56 degrees locally, according to her husband, Gil. The weather has been unexpectedly balmy, prompting some skeptics to wonder when the next big snowstorm will exact payback.

Duncan owns Knucklehead Films, Steep Hill Films

Marie Breimhorst

BY KRISTIN HOLTZ kholtz@swpub.com

long time resident of Jordan, will be 100 years old 1-29-12. How about old friends and relatives sending her birthday greetings to this address:

he dining room of Brent Duncan’s traditional farmhouse is less a place for family dinners than storage of movie props. A green screen is tucked up against a curio cabinet displaying “Star Wars” memorabilia. On the floor sits a makeup kit beside packedaway lights and camera bag. Multitasking is the life of an independent fi lmmaker. Duncan started Knucklehead Films in March 2006. In May 2011, he and his wife, Amanda, started Steep Hill Films, which focuses solely on commercial client and feature fi lm work. The Duncans, who lived in Shakopee for 10 years before moving last summer, run their fi lmmaking businesses out of their rural New Prague house. Tucked in the country, the farm has even been the backdrop for Steep Hill’s concept trailer of its newest project, a feature fi lm, “The Unknown.” While Duncan, 34, has always loved movies, particularly Halloween horror fi lms and realistic 1970s dramas, he never really imagined himself as a fi lmmaker. Fed up with the stress of working in a collection agency, Duncan intended to become a tattoo artist, partially moving out to California to start his own studio. But after being injured in a pedestriancar accident in 2005, his body couldn’t handle the tension of being hunched over for hours. So, facing a career crisis, Duncan sat down and made a list of all his favorite things. At the top: Movies. The fi lm business isn’t always as glamorous as it sounds. A short day for Duncan is 10 hours, and when fi lming, days run 15 to 20 hours. His short fi lm, “La Petite Femme,” an official selection at the 2008 Solstice Film Festival, was edited in just 18 days. It’s an incredibly laborintensive and stressful job, said Duncan, noting the bottle of Tums next to his cell phone. “There’s a reason why more people don’t do this for a living. It’s by far the best job in the world. I get to play. I get to create things. I get to work with beautiful people all the time. I get to learn new things,” Duncan said. “But it’s also the most stressful job I’ve ever done in my whole life.” Duncan is responsible for nearly every aspect of fi lmmaking: writing, lighting, shooting, casting, setting up, editing, special effects, color grading, marketing, advertising, and post-production. “It takes a world of people to make a project, and essentially we do all those jobs,” said Amanda, who helps out on the business side, as well as casting, lighting, script supervision and managing locations. Even the couple’s three daughters – ages 15, 11 and 8 – assist occasionally.

Amanda and Brent Duncan own Knucklehead Films and Steep Hill Films out of their rural New Prague farmhouse. Brent Duncan directed his first feature film, “The Mix-In,” in 2009 for just $3,000.

Watch the trailer Watch the trailer for Steep Hill Film’s latest project, “The Unknown,” at indiegogo.com/TheUnknown. Learn more about Steep Hill Films at steephillfilms.com. In fact, the Duncans do pretty much everything but sound, a highly technical field of work for which Duncan prefers to hire out. “It makes you appreciate the fi lm all that much more when you understand everything that goes into it,” Amanda said. Duncan balances corporate and independent work. His current corporate project is creating web videos of a Minnesota businessman’s memorabilia collection, called “Treasures of the 20th Century.” Duncan has made 18 fi lms so far, showcasing the eclectic collection of James Cook, who owns Investment Rarities Inc. in Bloomington, from the fi rst color RCA TV to rare concert posters to Judith Leiber luxury handbags. Duncan has directed one feature fi lm and is in preproduction for a second. He’s made other short fi lms, as well as a TV pilot and feature fi lm, “Cortland,” for another director. Duncan directed Knucklehead’s fi rst feature fi lm, “The Mix-In,” in 2009. He plans to release it to theaters this spring, including Marcus Theatres in Shakopee. “Brent pretty much lived in his computer chair for nine months,” Amanda said about Duncan’s post-production work on “The Mix-In.” Steep Hill Film’s newest project is a feature fi lm the

couple is producing with Chris Sias, called “The Unknown.” Written by Duncan, the movie is a psychological thriller about a man whose wife and kids have been kidnapped. The Duncans would like to raise $300,000 for the project through Indi Go-Go crowd funding. The average Hollywood fi lm budget is more than $139 million, according to Duncan. Steep Hill has already casted for “The Unknown,” which it hopes to start fi lming this spring. The Duncans would like to release the movie in September 2012. While a man of many skills, Duncan’s favorite task is directing. He loves pulling a genuine performance from his actors – something that can be missing in indie fi lms, which often feature overacting, he said. Having performed theater in high school and some work since, he understands the process and isn’t afraid to get personal with his actors. Duncan’s least favorite part of his job is working with other producers, especially those unfamiliar with the fi lm business, he said. While Duncan can usually imagine the fi nal product in his head early on, translating that to others isn’t as easy. Duncan’s toughest critic is usually himself. He has high expectations and knows a fi lm can always be improved, pointing to famous fi lmmakers, like George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, who return to their work years later. Thankfully, independent fi lmmaking gives him chance to be constantly learning and trying new things. “If I was just editing or just directing, I would get bored. I need to do a lot of things,” Duncan said.

Editor’s note: This is an occasional series focusing on local residents’ interesting, unusual or even oddball occupations.

The Optometric View by Dr. Vicki Luehmann (Borowicz) LOOKING BACK When looking ahead to styles of eyeglass frames toward which men will gravitate, take a look back. While the term “retro” may mean that a style is coming back into fashion, it may be more correct to say that it never was out of fashion. With this in mind, men can choose from a variety of classic-style square, rectangular, and perfectly round eyeglass frames. For a more sophisticated look, men may want to select thin, delicate eyeglass frames in square or rectangular shapes. Dark colors are the most prevalent, and black remains the current favorite. For more creative types, frames in any color with wide temples displaying abstract designs and designer logos continue to be popular. To ﬁnd the pair of glasses perfect for you, come in today and check out our collection. We can provide you with the services and information to keep you and your family’s eyes stylish and healthy.

EDITORIAL

Become a writer of 3,000 words in your newspaper There’s a lot you can say in 3,000 words. The length of the “Gettysburg Address” is only one-twelfth of the space afforded to you in the Jordan Independent each year. What power only a few words can hold! Your local newspaper offers you 12 annual opportunities to write up to 250 words, a total of 3,000 words per resident every year. Use the available space, please. Public discourse is as sorely needed in Jordan as anywhere. There are many important facets to public discussion of issues in your local newspaper. One key effect of the JI’s opinion page is that it should be a place where local government is held accountable for its actions. Your tax dollars shou ld n’t be wasted, gover ni ng bodies should be held to high standards of ethics and workmanship, and activists must answer to public scrutiny upon becoming a candidate for elected or appointed office. You should write a letter to the editor if you: I agree or disagree with your city council, state legislature, county board, town board or school board; I want to share a success story, or know about someone else’s success and want to put credit where it’s due; I can tell a story with a public purpose; I believe elected officials ought to explain their actions on a certain subject; I have an important question that bears a public answer or have an answer to a question posed in public; I would like to endorse a candidate (although some additional rules apply during election season); I want to see your town improve in a certain way; I or for many other reasons. It’s OK to get your opinion out in the open. Don’t be shy. Your writings are welcome here. Readers want public debate. Please avoid writing about businesses or listing all of your sponsors by name. Letters of substance, focused on the issue at hand, are encouraged. Public discourse is important to our small town, where decisions can be made without quite enough public input.

JOIN THE CHAT SHARE YOUR COMMENTS

New residents, especially, should consider using the opinion page for vetting of issues, because you might not yet have easy access to elected officials otherwise. City, school and volunteer organizations should be encouraging, rather than discouraging, communication with the public. By writing regular letters to the editor, our community leaders should stand as solid examples. The most ethical elected officials should be open to answering constituents’ questions and concerns in writing, in public. The most active volunteers should share what they do, in hopes that others follow their lead. Cursed is the town that doesn’t publicly speak about its most difficult issues. The consequences for a town that lacks public discussion are dire, possibly including: I a lost downtown; I incoming businesses in locations that don’t quite fit; I overspending or under-spending of your tax money; I lack of accountability for elected officials who don’t serve the public’s will; I and much more. Public discussion must be generated. It’s in Jordan’s best interest for many of you to speak freely. A well-written letter to the editor essentially is an abbreviated persuasive essay that can do a lot of good in your town of residence. Tell us your topic, explain your position on the issue, persuade us to buy into your viewpoint, and wrap it up succinctly. When you’re done with that letter, then write another letter to the editor next month, and the month after that, and the month after that, and so on. In a world where it’s increasingly easy to say that nothing is indeed free, we’re handing you a gift. Become a writer of 3,000 words. And surely, Jordan will be better for all of your hard work.

EDITORIAL FROM ELSEWHERE

Republicans need the fresh start It hasn’t been the best of times for Republicans in Minnesota. This year, the state senate elected a new majority leader, David Senjem of Rochester, and new leadership including deputy majority leader Julianne Ortman of Chanhassen and assistant majority leader Claire Robling of Jordan. A clean slate was needed after the surprise resignation of former majority leader Amy Koch, who left the position after admitting to an “inappropriate relationship” with a Senate staffer. The transition also comes at a time when there are revelations about substantial debt having been amassed by the state party and state party leader Tony Sutton departing. In Carver County, local Republicans replaced the county chairman last summer shortly after he was accused of sex crime. These black marks are particularly

troubling for GOP members who have pushed a social agenda that includes a marriage amendment on next fall’s ballot and who pride themselves on fiscal accountability. Koch’s departure provides an awkward backdrop to the upcoming marriage amendment. As the next legislative session is set to begin, Republicans desperately need a fresh start and a sharper focus. Republicans should set an agenda heavily weighted toward fiscal issues. There is plenty to delve into on the economic side of things. We’re hopefully emerging from the worst economy of this generation. Republicans should focus on making sure we indeed keep the economy moving ahead and leave most of the social agenda for another day. The Chanhassen Villager originally published this editorial.

Upcoming legislative session comes with new, local Republican leaders Jobs and the economy, capital investment projects, streamlining government, property taxes, a stadium, racino, and more will all likely be on the agenda when the Minnesota Legislature convenes Jan. 24 for its 2012 session.

a stadium will not be approved since that is not acceptable to many of us in the legislature, including me.

WRAPPING UP

TOWARD PROSPERITY Thankfully, something that is not on the list is dealing with another budget deficit. As chair of the Senate Finance Committee, the Dec. 1 news that Minnesota is projected to have an $876 million budget surplus – after dealing with a $5 billion deficit last year – was a tremendous relief. At least we should not have to reopen all of the budget areas for the remainder of the biennium, which ends June 30, 2013. Minnesota’s economy is recovering, which will help us restore the cash flow account, the budget reserve, and begin paying back the education shift that was implemented last summer to balance the budget. We will hopefully continue to grow our way to economic prosperity by holding down taxes and overregulation and allowing the private sector to flourish and hire more employees.

STEERING THE CAUCUS Helping to steer the majority caucus this session is a new leadership team, to which I was elected in December. It is an honor to be selected by my colleagues, but it is also a major responsibility. The Senate Republican Caucus leadership team, with input from all the members, sets priorities, determines schedules, negotiates with the House and governor, assists members with their legislation, communicates information, and gets involved in campaign activity for the caucus. The leadership team includes seven members, including the majority leader, Sen. Dave Senjem, R-Rochester, four assistant majority leaders elected by the caucus, including me, and two members appointed by the majority leader. Sen. Julianne Ortman, R-Chanhassen, who also represents three townships – Louisville,

Claire

ROBLING Jackson, and St. Lawrence – in Scott County, has been appointed the deputy majority leader by Senjem.

DIVVYING UP WORKLOAD Typically, the leadership team divides the work among its members, with the majority leader having major responsibilities. However, since our team is so new, we haven’t determined which members will assume specific responsibilities and we’re all helping out in multiple areas right now. Our first priority is to make sure the legislative session is ready to begin, that agendas are being developed, bills are being drafted, and that we are providing information to and receiving information from our members, staff, and the public. Committee chairs have been reviewing possible legislation, and members have been visiting with their constituents to find out their positions on issues. The leadership team has met with Kurt Zellers, the speaker of the House, and Gov. Mark Dayton as we look for ways to work together. Although we know we will have disagreements, it is our goal to also find common ground, especially in the area of jobs and the economy and government reform and efficiencies.

NO TAXES FOR STADIUM I expect a capital investment bill to be passed this session, and if we can find an acceptable agreement on a stadium, that will also be addressed. However, I believe any plan using general fund tax dollars for

The Senate leadership team has not set a date for adjournment, but we must adjourn by the third Monday in May, which falls on May 21 this year.

GROWTH EFFECTS However, I don’t expect legislators to want to stay in St. Paul that long since new district maps are expected to be released Feb. 21. Redistricting is completed within two years after the U.S. Census in order to make districts proportional again. Few legislators have felt the effect of growth in the last 10 years as much as Rep. Mike Beard, R-Shakopee, and I. We represent the most populated House and Senate districts in the state. Senate District 35 has about 30,000 more people now than it will have after redistricting when each district should have about 78,000 residents. However, no one knows exactly which communities will be included in their new district, and with every seat in the legislature up for election this year, I expect legislators will be eager to complete the work and return home to meet with possibly new and familiar constituents as soon as possible.

Christmas concerts left no room for grandma After logistical nightmare, board compromises on music programs BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

Audiences crammed into the Jordan High School auditorium to see elementary school students perform Christmas music last month. Some who were there described the night as a logistical nightmare. Audiences had to wait in lines Dec. 20. Traffic was snarled around the schools, with young and old walking from distant parking spots. Parents found their calendars marked with another stressful holiday event. The auditorium was over capacity, possibly violating fire code. “We had grandmas standing,” Jordan Elementary School Principal Stacy DeCorsey told Jordan School Board members. Like eating a batch of sugar cookies, the cute Christmas cheer that board members hoped the concerts would deliver to parents was too much of a good thing. That evening, there were two kindergarten concerts, at

4:30 p.m. and 5:30 p.m., then a first-grade concert at 6:30 p.m. and a second-grade concert at 7:30 p.m. “It was unbelievably stressful and unsafe,” DeCorsey said. Leah Gregoria, parent of a Jordan Elementary School child, was volunteering to help with the fourth- and fi fth-grade honor choir that night, and has attended numerous concerts in the past. “It’s never been that crazy,” Gregoria said. Gregoria said her biggest issue was safety, both in the parking lots and in the high school commons. She parked at the elementary school, in the farthest lot from the high school, and said there were people parked in every possible district parking spot as far as Jordan Middle School. That night there was a basketball game, the danceline performed, as did the band, and the concerts were in the middle of it, she said. “There was too much going on in one night, and too many people,” Gregoria said.

Students in Mary Clawson’s kindergarten class perform the Penguin Polka in parent-made costumes. Parents may love watching cute kids, but there were just too many people and concerts on Dec. 20, said some parents, teachers and administrators.

MORE FLEXIBILITY Back in October 2011, music teacher Marie Palmquist unsuccessfully asked to schedule more classroom-based performances, called informances, instead of working for half the year toward one night on stage. The discussion got sidetracked on part of her proposal that hoped to make concerts more inclusive and less dominated by the

religious aspects of the holiday. But all along, it was a numbers game. In a growing elementary school with 660 students – or 38 kids per music class – each student received only 50 minutes of music instruction per week. Kids only saw Palmquist eight to 10 times before Christmas. Then, multiply 660 students by parents, grandparents, siblings and

more, and concerts became unworkable – not to mention trying to fit concerts into the high school’s already busy schedule. Trisha Gregor, a parent of a fi rst- and a third-grader, said safety was her main concern. And she’s seen informances done in the Shakopee school district with success. Gregor said a move toward smaller performances is a step in the right direction. “It seems like the district has outgrown the ability to have a huge Christmas concert,” Gregor said. At the Jan. 9 school board meeting, elementary school leadership and the board reached a compromise. Kindergarten classes will hold informances during the day, in combination with a gingerbread house making day that parents are invited to attend. First- and second-grade students will hold traditional concerts as before. Third- and fourth-grade students will move toward more informance-style concerts in classroom-sized groups. The plan for informances, especially for younger kids, is to “show parents what

we’ve been up to,” Palmquist said. After the meeting, she wrote in an e-mail that she was pleased that the board is giving more flexibility within the traditional schedule. “Having smaller daytime performances will afford better learning experiences for our kindergartners and will solve some of the logistical and safety concerns we had this December,” Palmquist wrote.

AMAZING WORK Board Chairwoman Deb Pauly and others praised the concerts. “It is amazing what you have done with those kids in that amount of time,” Pauly said. How and when the concerts will happen was not decided, but the issue will likely get more attention in the coming year as the district puts together its calendar. “You guys work out the logistics,” Pauly said. Gregoria also had praise for Palmquist, including how she handled that night of mayhem. “She had so much poise that night in the middle of all that,” Gregoria said.

ourschools Taking on chemical use by high school students Jamie

MCMAHON FOCUS ON SPECIAL EDUCATION

Beginning in midNovember, a collaborative group consisting of social workers and therapists from Minnesota River Valley Special Education Cooperative (MRVSEC), Carver-Scott Education Cooperative, and Carver County convene to discuss issues surrounding youth addiction. The Chemical Health Awareness Professional Learning Community (PLC) was funded by a Youth Intervention Program grant

received from the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, Office of Justice Programs. The group, which will continue to meet through January, is facilitated by a representative from Hazelden. Chemical use and abuse is a major issue among high school students today. It is the goal of the group to not only learn about substanceuse trends, but to develop effective prevention and intervention strategies to

better serve students in the schools. Collaboration between the two schools to form this youth addiction learning community has been helpful in bringing awareness to the different issues presenting themselves in both communities. It has been beneficial for both cooperatives to share interventions and resources that have proven effective for their site while learning new information from Hazelden together. Hazelden has provided a

wealth of information both on statistics as well as different teaching methods to use with our students. The intended outcome of the PLC is that this group of mental health workers will bring a number of newly learned supportive tools back to each school community. The group plans to use these tools to help support students to stay on, or guide students back to, a path of success. On Feb. 23, Hazelden will be hosting a ribbon-

cutting ceremony for their new Outpatient Addiction Treatment Center in Chaska. The center will provide a variety of chemical health services to adults, youth, and families. Members of the PLC are excited to have such a helpful resource coming to the community. Jamie McMahon, school social worker for Minnesota River Valley Special Education Cooperative (MRVSEC).

STUDENTS OF THE MONTH

Facility-use policy gets more details Jordan Community Education and Recreation (ECFE) Director Brenda Lieske shared points about a facility-use policy at a Jordan School Board meeting early January. She and boa rd members tried to come to a conclusion last year about reg u lating how groups are overseen when using school buildings. Insurance coverage was a main issue. G oi ng for wa rd, a l l user groups must be covered by insurance. If they’re school sponsored, the groups are under the school district’s insurance. If the groups are not, they need to provide individual certificates of insurance, according to a report by Lieske.

High school looks at weighted grades

PHOTO BY DAVID SCHUELLER / REPRINTS AT PHOTOS.JORDANNEWS.COM

Jordan Middle School students of the month for December are (from left): front row, Michael Gregoria, Rebekah Gunderson, Sidney Bendzick and Molly Kelvington; second row, Benjamin Twite, Paiton Johnson, Jacob Beuch and Nicole Schrader; third row, Jack Larson, Rachel Seifert, Lexie Chambers, and Rylee Newton; back row, Andrea Howard, Alex Smith, Abraham Langager and Lessly Rodriguez.

The Jordan High School faculty council decided that students will receive weighted high school grades if they take concurrent enrollment courses or college in the schools courses. Students already can get weighted grades if they take advanced placement courses. According to a report by Principal Barb McNulty, teachers were concerned that students might avoid more rigor-

ous courses out of fear their grade-point averages would drop. I n add it ion, t he facu lt y cou nci l ag reed to give the same credit value to college in the schools, concurrent enrollment and post-secondary education option (PSEO) courses.

Two students make SDSU dean’s list Two students from Jordan earned spots on the fall dean’s list at South Dakota State University. Rachel Beck earned the honor in the College of Education and Human Sciences. Leah Dietel earned the honor in the College of Education and Human Sciences, and also received a perfect 4.0 gradepoint average. To make the dean’s list, students need to earn at least a 3.5 grade point average on a 4.0 scale.

Monyok makes Gustavus dean’s list Melody Monyok of Jordan earned a spot on the Gustavus Adolphus College fall dean’s list. Students earn the honor by achieving a 3.7 grade-point average on a 4.0 scale. Compiled by David Schueller

Traditional dance was part of a presentation that a group of 21 Colombian students and their teachers gave to Jordan elementary, middle and high school students last Friday. They also showed artwork, dances, a video about Colombia, and a drama they acted based on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleeping Beauty and the Airplaneâ&#x20AC;? by Nobel Prize winner Gabriel GarcĂa MĂĄrquez.

EXCHANGE continued from page 1

Last week, one Colombian student per family allowed students to get the feel of what lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like here. Montoya Ramirez stayed with Madison Norrander and family. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone has been so nice to us. They really appreciate the fact that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re here,â&#x20AC;? Montoya Ramirez said. Colombian students gave presentations to students from Jordan elementary, middle and high schools on Friday, Jan. 13. The students

showed artwork, dances and a video about Colombia. A drama they acted, based on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sleeping Beauty and the Airplaneâ&#x20AC;? by Nobel Prize winner Gabriel GarcĂa MĂĄrquez, won laughs from high school students in the audience who watched the ill-fated gawking of a male passenger. High school Spanish teacher Amy Peters said students took a trip to Minneapolis to see the Walker Art Center, and to St. Paul to see the State Capitol building and the Cathedral of St. Paul. Their visit, which lasted a little more than a week at Jordan High

School, could lead to another trip south for Jordan students. In June 2010, Randy Althoff and six high school students flew to BogotĂĄ for an 11-day trip to Colombia, which followed up on the January 2010 visit of Colombian students to Jordan. Althoff has helped organize much of the exchange between Jordan High School and Colombia, Peters said. Once again, Jordan students are hoping to take a trip of their own. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Now a lot of the kids who hosted them want to go to Colombia,â&#x20AC;? Peters said.

North Dakota State University names two from Jordan to deanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s list Students from Jordan earned spots on the North Dakota State University fall deanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s list. James Menke earned a spot and is studying emergency management.

Britani Otto made the list and is studying fi nance at the school. Student must earn grade-point averages of 3.5 or higher on a 4.0 scale to make the deanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s list.

The Jordan School Board decided to move forward with concussion baseline testing. The test gives a number reading for normal brain function so that if an athlete is injured later, the same test can be applied to see if effects of the injury are still present. Jordan High School Athletic Director Jeff Vizenor first proposed the idea in Jordan early in the fall. Then, in November 2011, the board reconsidered, on the cautionary words of Minnesota School Boards Association (MSBA) President Kent Theisse, who told Jordan School Board Chairwoman Deb Pauly that the district was setting itself up for a lawsuit. In her fi rst board meeting, Jan. 9, Board Member Caroline Carritt asked whether the district had consulted with its attorney on the matter. Superintendent Kirk Nelson said it had not. Instead, the district was relying on the advice of the MSBA, he said. Pauly is also an MSBA board member. Nelson after the meeting said an attorney with the MSBA is studying the issue. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re looking at the legality of it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; can we be held responsible?â&#x20AC;? Nelson said. Nelson said when in doubt, athletes are sent to a doctor. Regarding the testing in such serious matters as concussions, the issue was being studied further to make sure the district wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t put itself legally at risk for allowing the testing, which is relatively new. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If the report is wrong, are we liable?â&#x20AC;? Nelson said. A fter discussion this month, board members decided to move forward on the idea, and to approve the details of the plan at a future meeting. Board members had in November asked Vizenor to come back with more information, citing concerns over legal liability resulting from allowing the testing. Vizenor returned and compared it to screening for blood pressure, which doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t force someone to take action or see a doctor.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see how this is any different than requiring a physical,â&#x20AC;? Board Member Dan Buresh said, adding that physical exams are required by the district. Board Member Bob Vollbrecht said that in his opinion, the district has more legal protection by trying to set up a baseline test. That, he said, prevents kids from shopping around for doctors who will sign off on them playing again too early. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My opinion is something is better than nothing,â&#x20AC;? Vollbrecht said. A $10 annual fee per athlete would likely be charged and testing would be implemented in grades 7-12. Board Member Lauren Pedersen said she had wanted the testing to be done on her son. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to get Landon done when he was 5 for hockey, so I have no problem with this,â&#x20AC;? Pedersen said. The Minnesota State High School League recommends the testing. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Baseline testing should be considered for athletes competing in contact sports, especially football, ice hockey, soccer, wrestling and basketball. Testing is most cost effectively applied after symptoms have resolved,â&#x20AC;? according to a recommendation sheet from the league. Last year, the Minnesota Legislature wrote into law that all high school coaches must have concussion training. The Minnesota State High School League provided and all Jordan coaches received the training. For parents and athletes looking to get back to playing as fast as possible, Vizenor said the tests could end up being favorable, because a kid could return to play faster than expected. Or, they could be tough, he said, because the tests would take into account outside injuries about which staff might not know. Prior injuries can mean even a small hit in play can take a long time to heal. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know. And think of how many kids go out to the sledding hill and bump their heads,â&#x20AC;? Vizenor said.

191 food baskets go to those in need It was a busy December for the Lions with their annual Breakfast with Santa and their food basket for those in need. The Breakfast with Santa served 286 people. Santa was kept busy with a lot of children visiting before Christmas to make sure they got their last-minute requests in before the big day. It was a beautiful day, and the Lions served eggs, sausage, pancakes, and coffee cake for those that visited. The Lions would like to thank the Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce for its contribution of the bags that were handed out to the kids that were filled with goodies for the young boys and girls. The money that was raised helped with the second project for the holidays for the Lions, which was the food basket program. This program couldn’t be done without the help from the Jordan Fire Department and the local churches, Radermacher’s Fresh Market, St. John the Baptist Catholic Church, and the American Legion. All have donated time, money, or space for this program, Thank you to all who have had a hand in this program.

This year’s winners are: Carissa Lewis, first place; Emily Stocker, second; Sarah Aldrich, third; Katie Kreuser, fourth; Michelle Jablonsky, fifth; Jenneifer Sorenson, sixth; Abi Thorn, seventh; Madalyn Schmidt, eighth; Haley Kreuser, ninth; and Ben Eicholz, 10th. Honorable-mention prize winners also include David Flynn, Jaylin Danasur, Logan Simonson, Connor Bulau, and Daniel Gutzmer. All winners won cash prizes. Hats off to these students.

HENNEN LIONS DEN

There was 191 baskets this year for families that were in need. Thanks again.

ESSAYS There was an essay contest at the Jordan High School that the Lions and Jordaness Lions co-sponsor throughout the year. The Lions Essay Contest, in which the students were asked to write about some way they could help society or what they felt it meant to serve – the Lions motto being “We Serve.” The Lions are appreciative of the more than 100 students that submitted an essay and of the high school English department for their cooperation with this youth outreach program.

POSTERS The Jordan Lions sponsor the peace poster contest at the Jordan Middle School each year. Prizes are given to the top entrants, and the Lions are appreciative of the many entries. Thanks go to the middle school art instructor Mr. Knutson for his cooperation and support of the program. Winning posters were selected by the Jordan Lions at their November meeting. This year’s winners are: Kaitlyn Snook, first place; Brynn Sieve, second; Sydney Bourdeaux, third; Lauren Lopez, fourth; and Veronica Steinhoff, fifth. Honorable-

mention poster winners were Brock Anderson, Isabelle Pearson, Parker Huss, Allyssa Stadler, and Samson Schmitt. Congratulations to all, and a job well done.

COMING RIGHT UP Upcoming events for the Lions: Feb. 2 will be the beer/ wine tasting/silent auction held at the Ridges of Sand Creek. This is a great fund-raiser for the Lions each year and is also a ton of fun for those that go each year. Please put that date on your calendar and see your local Lions member for tickets to the event. The fish fries will also be coming in February and March. The first is set up for Feb. 24, and the second one on March 30. Hope to see you all at these events, and thank you to the people in the community that take part in these because without you supporting us we would not be able to do what we do in our community. Happy New Year. Scott Hennen is a columnist for the Jordan Independent. He and other columnists can be reached by sending an e-mail to the newspaper at editor@ jordannews.com.

“Everyone thinks we’re too late in the game, but once we started looking at it and got into the fi ne details, it made a lot of sense,” Tabke said. “Six million people come to Shakopee every year, and we handle all those people with ease.” Last Wednesday afternoon, the group unveiled its plan to locate a 75,000-seat stadium on the 130-acre site kitty-corner from Valleyfair that contains the shelved ADC Telecommunications building.

The Vikings stadium plan is sure to receive top billing when the Minnesota Legislature reconvenes next Tuesday, Jan. 24. Robling is drafting a bill for Shakopee’s stadium proposal, and competition has been fierce between Arden Hills and Minneapolis. Legislators will be hard pressed to come up with a stadium plan that ensures the team will stay in Minnesota.

A rendering of a redevelopment site shows room for a Vikings stadium and parking near Valleyfair in Shakopee.

REDEVELOPMENT “We believe we have the best site that will be the easiest to develop for the Minnesota Vikings and is the cheapest cost and second-largest land area in acreage,” Tabke told the State Capitol press corps. The plan is to demolish the 490,000-square-foot former ADC Telecommunications building, which was never completed due to the bursting of the dot-com bubble. It has been mothballed since 2001. Property owner Charles Mattson has been unable to find a buyer for the ADC site. He signed a letter of intent to sell the land to the Vikings for $21.5 million. The property is valued by Scott County at $16.36 million. Proponents said the city is the perfect place for Vikings fans to stay and play, given all its other attractions. They said they believe Shakopee is fully capable of handling the Vikings, too. “We do this every day and do it in our sleep. … To use the assets we are already have in place makes sense to me,” Beard said.

State Sen. Claire Robling speaks last week about the local stadium proposal, which she is putting into words for a legislative bill this session.

A telecommunications building would be demolished and scrapped for parts to make way for a Vikings stadium, according to the proposal.

There was a flurry of activity around Shakopee Mayor Brad Tabke last week, after he unveiled the stadium proposal.

ourNeighbors Project gets 2 million dictionaries to youth Years ago, campground killer gets 29 years

The Jordaness Lions purchased and distributed dictionaries to the thirdgraders in the Jordan district. This effort is part of a nationwide project that has provided more than 2 million students received dictionaries in 2012 to date. These third-graders get very excited about their dictionaries and are very grateful for this gift. The club received many thank-you letters from the students, and some of these notes were read at the January membership meeting. These messages were a delight to read. Some of the thank-yous displayed the necessity of this book, and students projected the sheer joy in receiving their very own dictionary. One student was so thrilled with the dictionary that they would protect it with their life! (Out of the mouths of babes!)

HOT DOGS AND HOOPS When you attend JHS basketball games on Jan. 17 and Jan. 19, plan on having your dinner at our hotdog booth at Jordan High School. Proceeds from this fund-raiser assist with our scholarship program.

CHILI FEED The third annual Mar Adamek and Linda Stier Memorial Chili Feed takes place on Jan. 28. The Jordaness Lions will be assisting in selling and serving food at this worthy fund-raiser. Stop by for good food, lots of friendship, fun and music.

Eye of the

LION 5M2 District convention in February. This is a good time to visit with other clubs and get rejuvenated for the second half of our Lion year. Conventioneers have the option of attending seminars and business meetings. These are educational opportunities for new and seasoned members. The theme for this year’s convention is “We are Family.” Members are busy getting ideas together to see what family (families) we will represent.

BOWLING On Jan. 14, about 120 bowlers were determined to out strike, out spare or simply out bowl each other. Some of us just tried to not get gutter balls, but even these attempts were celebrated! This event gathered a very diverse crowd – members of visiting Lions clubs, the Jordan Fire Department, the Jordan Lions, local businesses and many teams of families and friends. It was great to have so many people participate. There were bowlers from ages 27-89! The committee deserves much credit for a job well done on our first bowling tournament. Everything ran smoothly and there were fabulous door prizes and raffle items. Monies raised will be donated to the food shelf and Lions Eye Bank. Some teams created team names and shirts for the event. Rumor has it that a possible team name and team shirt contest may be in the works for the 2013 tourney. From the “Girls in the Gutter” and “Spare Parts,” game on!

50 YEARS AGO “White Front Bar, Jordan, will hold its annual fishing contest Sunday,” an ad in the JI said. “Largest sunfish, crappie and walleye. Don Allmann, proprietor.” “Open Friday, Saturday nights and Sunday afternoons. Open to the public. VFW 2854, Jordan,” an ad in the JI said. “Now in the former Ruth’s dress shop building.” St. Joe Public School will have chicken chow mein, butter bread, peach sauce and milk Tuesday for hot lunch. Herb Bohnsack of Jordan has been named the winner of Scott County and third in Zone No. 2 in the Minn Extra-Prift

BACK Corn Contest. Bohnsack’s corn expenses were compared to the corn yield. The contest was sponsored by the University of Minnesota. In the 30 years ago section of the It Happened Here column in the JI, it was noted that in 1932, People State Bank of Jordan was closed because of heavy withdrawals and was turned over to the State Department for liquidation. The Jordan cagers are 4-2, tied for first in the Minnesota River Conference standings with New Prague, Le Sueur and Montgomery. Ken Hanson, Jordan High School basketball coach, will be heard on Sid Hartmann’s Prep Parade program over WCCO Radio. On Wednesday, Hartmann taped a telephone conversation with Hanson after the Hubmen defeated Le Sueur Tuesday night. It will air at 8 p.m. Thursday.

30 YEARS AGO The Jordan Planning Commission voted down a proposed ordinance change, which would allow hobby kennels in residential areas in Jordan. The city of Jordan approved a fire exit to be built in the library so customers can exit the basement safely if an emergency occurs. The Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce will hold its annual Farmer Stag Night at the Civil Center. Earl Heimkes, 59, of Jordan passed away. Scott County’s 187 workers, members of the American Federation of State, County & Municipal Employees (AFSCME) union, turned down the 5 percent increase in pay offered by the Scott County Board. Other issues are seniority and layoffs.

Jordan’s warming house schedule is listed in the JI for area skaters on the Mill Pond. They are the same as last year. According to Sen. Bob Schmitz of Jordan, budget cuts at the state level will cost the Jordan school district $106,000 of state aid. Jordan schools’ state aid will be decreased by $70 a student. Cold temperatures and blowing wind and snow has kept local service stations busy this past week. Cold weather starts, tune-ups, and tank heaters have been hot items, according to Don Undesser, owner of Don’s Standard in Jordan.

10 YEARS AGO Jeffery Thompson, the man from Oregon, who killed his wife at the KOA campground in Jordan pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 29 years in prison. Jordan Lions will host a venison game dinner at St. John the Baptist Catholic Church basement on Saturday. Proceeds will go to fund Lions projects. Dr. Paul Nevin, 93, passed away. His son, Bill, was Scott County sheriff. Jordan police officer Brian Stolt and his dog, Radar, gave a demonstration of how a drug dog searches out drugs in a police search. The demo was given to the government law class at Jordan High School. Joel Hunt and Mike O’Connell are the two new Jordan School Board members sworn in last night. Construction of a new County Road 9 bridge is ahead of schedule, partly because of nice weather. The Hubmen cagers won at Montgomery 65-64. Scott West wrestlers placed third at Paynesville. The Jaguars basketball team defeated Waterville 67-55 and Sibley East 49-34.

ZONE LION OF THE YEAR

Looking

ai lyD ls. ea

While he was trying to convince the Jordan City Council to appoint him to the Jordan Economic Development Authority (EDA) earlier this month, Mayor Pete Ewals offended Councilmember Tanya Velishek. For Ewals to join the EDA, either Velishek or Councilmember Joe Thill would have to leave the committee. Both Thill and Velishek wanted to serve another year on the EDA, they said. Ewals said that he works in business, and since the EDA is the business-promoting advisory arm of the city, he would be a good fit as a committee member. “You don’t have the experience that I have,” Ewals said to Velishek. “I’ve managed some very big businesses.” Velishek said that she wants to finish out the good work she’s done on the EDA. It’s rude to say that she doesn’t have experience, she added. “You don’t,” Ewals said. He added that the council seems critical and paranoid about his activities, but he mere-

ly wants to learn more about the city. Serving on as many commissions as possible throughout a term in office could make him more well-rounded, he said. He’s been on the park and recreation commission, as well as on the planning commission. He wanted to try the EDA, he said. “It’s something I haven’t done yet.” Velishek fi red back that she has been committed to the city commission assignments she was given – more than Ewals has, according to her. Wit h Ewa ls’ leadership, working with a new slate of planning commissioners is an opportunity, Thill told Ewals. Instead, Councilmember Sally Schultz replaced Ewals on the planning commission. “So now you want to quit?” Thill asked the mayor. “I’ll drop the EDA question, since you guys are so stubborn,” Ewals said. Ewals twice apologized to Velishek for what he said, adding: “Some of that stuff, it needs to be done and I’m glad you’re doing it.” Thill said that he and Velishek are just passionate about the EDA’s work.

The Jordaness Lions will be sponsoring a fish dinner on March 16. Last year’s dinner was very profitable and allowed the Jordaness Lions to enhance the monetary amounts of the high school scholarships. Set your calendar for this date and watch for times and prices in next month’s column of the Eye. Take out dinners are available also.

70 YEARS AGO Jordan’s annual President’s birthday ball will go on as planned. The event will be held at Mertz Hall. Proceeds go to an infantile paralysis fund for research. “With the U.S. government order to conserve auto tires and autos, Sunder General store, Jordan, will limit home delivery to twice a day,” an ad in the Jordan Independent said. “Effective Saturday, Jan. 17, we all need to do our part. Sunder General Store.” By official announcement today, all highway projects deemed unnecessary will be put on hold indefinitely. Only those deemed for defense will proceed. Highway 21 between Jordan and New Prague is partially done and is in limbo for now. There is a buzz in all townships of Scott County. In this week’s JI are published all county residents and businesses by city and township -- with the amount of personal property taxes paid for the year. Delbert Cates of Prior Lake saw a buck deer walking through his backyard, a rare sight in these parts. Many local entries from the Jordan area are listed in the JI for the 11-district Golden Gloves boxing tournament. Participating locals are: Geo. Kohout, New Prague; John Boves, Jordan; David Allen, Jordan; Maynard Kragthorpe, Jordan; James Doherty, St. Catherine; and Bud Ryan, St. Patrick.

School resource oﬀicer returns City will take agreements to MRVSEC, Jordan Public Schools BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

D r u g Abu s e Re si st a nc e Education (DARE) starts in a week. B y ap p r ov i n g o n e -ye a r agreements with Jordan Public Schools and Minnesota River Valley Special Education Cooperative on Tuesday, the Jordan City Council sealed a deal to provide the DARE program and other services in the schools at a lesser cost than in the past. DA R E was canceled last year, but with a $5,000 contribution from the school district and MRVSEC, the program was restored for fifth- and sixthgraders. For the decade from 20012 010, law en forcement has taught local schoolchildren about the dangers of drugs. Prog rams expanded to the point that MRVSEC and Jordan Public Schools each had been paying about $25,000 a year to have a school resource officer stationed at the public schools campus along Sunset and Hillside drives, Police Chief Bob Malz said. But when school leaders pulled their 2011 contributions to the city, the city council and police department were unable to keep an officer dedicated to the schools. Police continued to respond to calls from the schools and par ticipate in school-related events, as necessary.

publicsafety Man gets 3-year sentence for burglary that led to manhunt BY LORI CARLSON AND ALEX HALL editor@plamerican.com, ahall@swpub.com

The second of two burglars involved in a burglary-turned-manhunt last summer on the border of Prior Lake and Shakopee was sentenced last week to serve nearly three years in prison. Jason Bradley Phyle, 29, of Minneapolis pleaded guilty to fi rst-degree burglary in Scott County District Court on Monday, Jan. 9. He will serve 22 months behind bars and 11 months on supervised release for the June 29, 2011, home invasion that led to a fivehour manhunt near Marschall Road in Spring Lake Township. Both Phyle – who fled through a swampy area – and 36-year-old William Thomas Benjamin II – who tried to hide in a tree – were located and charged with fi rst-degree burglary, which carries a mandatory minimum of six months in jail. Benjamin was sentenced to five years in prison after pleading guilty in October.

The two men invaded an occupied home in the 1680 0 block of Marschall Road (County Road 17) at 7:30 a.m. June 29. As a woman called 911, one of the men ran through the house. As officers arrived, Jason Bradley the suspects fled. The downstairs phone was Phyle found off the hook. Benjamin was found nearby in a tree. Around noon, Phyle was spotted paddling a small boat on Campbell Lake. As a State Patrol helicopter hovered overhead, he jumped into the lake and swam to shore, but was soon apprehended. Phyle’s criminal history includes three burglary convictions in Hennepin County and two convictions for fleeing police in Hennepin and Anoka counties. He also has convictions for assault and drug possession, dating back to 2004.

Teenager allegedly assaults guest for being in bedroom with mom BY ALEX HALL ahall@swpub.com

A Spring Lake Township man is accused of repeatedly beating a houseguest in the head when he saw the man in a bedroom with his mother in the early hours of New Year’s Day. Michael James Cheesman, 19, has been charged with felony third-degree assault, felony fi rst-degree property damage and fi fth-degree assault as a result of the incident. According to the complaint, the guest was staying with Cheesman and his mother at their house on New Year’s Eve. Cheesman’s mother allegedly provided hard liquor to the two underage men that night. At one point early in the morning, the mother invited the guest into her bedroom to “help her make the bed.” Cheesman eventually entered the room and became infuriated when he saw the guest with his mother in her bedroom, even though the guest denied kissing or engaging in any sexual conduct with the mother. The guest saw an object in Cheesman’s hand that appeared to be a tire iron or crowbar, then was allegedly

struck several times in the face and head with either the object or Cheesman’s fi sts, leaving him with several noticeable injuries and lacerations to his face. The guest attempted to flee the house Michael James but was followed out by Cheesman, who Cheesman allegedly threatened to break his kneecaps and kill him. While outside, Cheesman allegedly swung the object at the guest, then used the object to break all of the windows on the guest’s SUV, as well as its taillights and a front head lamp. The cost of the damage was estimated at $2,000. Cheesman allegedly admitted to authorities that he confronted the guest while he was in his mother’s bedroom and punched him in the face and head repeatedly. He said that he grabbed a golf club and struck the guest’s vehicle with it, but denied ever hitting the guest with the club. Cheesman has an omnibus hearing scheduled for today, Jan. 19, in Scott County District Court.

PANTHERS WRESTLING

Lakers push Scott West to the limit Wrestlers overcome 19-point deficit to stay undefeated BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

It’s been a dream season for Scott West, so far. T hey won t h ree tou r naments, fi nished fourth at the Minnesota Christmas Tournament, and have a perfect dual meet record. The perfect record almost came to an end for the Panthers on Saturday afternoon. Scott West, participating in the Anoka Duals, fell behind early to Class 3A’s No. 8-ranked team, Prior Lake, but was able to rally to secure their 13th dual meet victory and stay perfect on the season. Prior Lake came out on fi re, as it built leads of 13-0 and 25-6 on the Panthers. However, Scott West won six of the fi nal seven matches to rally for the 37-31 victory. “You have to give the wrestlers from Prior Lake a lot of credit,” co-head coach Darren Ripley said. “They came out and wrestled hard and really put it to us early on.” The match started with the Lakers’ Dylan Sogge topping Scott West eighth-grader Ben Kelvington 8-3 at 106 pounds. In the 113 -pound match, No. 6-rated Zach Siegle led No. 3-rated Tanner Johnshoy 2-0 early in the fi rst period, when Johnshoy reversed Siegle to tie the matchup. In the reversal, Siegle hurt is arm and was unable to continue, giving Prior Lake six points for an injury default.

“Zach really scored a nice op eni n g t a ke dow n, a nd it looked like it was going to be a really exciting match,” Ripley said. “We will have to wait, see and hope for the best as to the severity of the injury.” Prior Lake followed that up with a 14-2 win at 120 pounds for a 13-0 lead. S en ior Lu ke B etchwa r s broke the ice for Scott West, as he won 5-1 against Blake Carlisle at 126 pounds. Luke Zilverberg kept the momentum going for the Panthers, as he defeated No. 7-rated Ben Rock 6-3. “We needed Luke Z. to back up Luke B.’s win, and that’s what he did,” Ripley said. “Team wise, it was a big part i n det er m i n i n g t he me et , because with the win, it was three team points for us and three team points that they did not get.” Prior Lake stopped the Panthers’ momentum by getting pins at 138 and 145 pounds. The two pins pushed the Lakers lead to 25-6 with seven matches left. That’s when the Panthers’ rally began. Senior Gabe Fogarty earned a pin fall at 152 pounds. Charlie Pesch and Nick Dvorak fol-

lowed that pin up with pins of their own at 160 and 170 pounds. The three pins cut the lead to 25-24. “You would like to think that after getting three straight pins that you would be in the lead on the scoreboard,” Ripley said. “However, the fact that we were still behind illustrates how big of a hole we had dug ourselves early on.” The Panthers finally took the lead when senior Jake DeWeese won an 8-2 decision at 182 pounds. Mike Riker extended the lead to 31-25 with a 9-0 win at 195 pounds. Prior Lake tied up the match at 31-31 with a pin fall at 220 pounds. That sent the match to the heavyweights were Scott West Michael Kroells took on Prior Lake’s Ross Larson. Kroells, ranked No. 1 in the state, pinned Larson at 2:45 of the second period to secure t he w i n for t he Pa nt her s. Larson is ranked seventh in the state. “You have to give our kids some credit for battling back,” Ripley said. “We did a good job of winning six of the last seven matches, four of them by pin with one major, and it certainly helps to have a Michael Kroells sitting at the top to help settle the matter.” The Panthers wrestled three other dual meets during the weekend, but none as exciting as the Prior Lake match.

Nick Dvorak helped Scott West rally from 19 points down with a pin fall at 170 pounds against Prior Lake. At the Anoka Duals, they defeated Hudson, Wis., 45-23 and Anoka 36-23. The night before the Anoka Duals, Scott West defeated Sibley East 50-18. “I think that overal l we wrestled a little flat and uninspired this weekend,” Ripley said.

“We also had some wrestling where we did not get tough in tough situations and that was a little frustrating to see because that is really what wrestling is all about.”

UP NEXT Things don’t slow down for the Panthers this weekend.

At 5 p.m. Thursday, they host a triangular at Belle Plaine High School. They will wrestle Minnesota River Conference foe NorwoodYoung America and PlainviewElgin-Millville. On Saturday, they travel to Apple Valley to participate in the Eastview Invitational.

Jordan continues roll, delivers another big win Girls team beats Tri-City by 37 BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

Another game, another big win. The Jordan girls basketball team improved to 11-1 on the season after they defeated

Tri-City United 77-40. The 37-point victory comes after Jordan has won its previous three games by more than 28 points each. This game was a little different than their past three games as they struggled early but exploded late in the fi rst half to take 40-24 lead into halftime. “Collectively we struggled with our shooting at

the beginning of the game,” head coach Greg Dietel said. “Sometimes that happens. We tried to take too many quick shots. If the team is shooting well, then it works. If not, we have to be patient enough to force the defense to work so we can get better shots.” Tri-City held a 14-13 lead with about nine minutes left in the fi rst half.

That’s when Jordan had enough and exploded for a 2710 run to fi nish the half. “The big key to the run was that we got out in transition on offense and also rebounded much better and limited Tri- City’s second chance points.” In the second hal f, the Jaguars defense was great as they limited Tri City to just 17 points.

That helped the Jaguars pull away for the big win. They also went inside more on offense which produced easy baskets for Sam Hentges. Hentges scored 11 of her 15 points in the second half. Maddy Dean added 23 followed by Makayla Lambrecht’s 14 and Kelsey Chambers 10. “It was great to see our team respond to the unchar-

acteristic start we had and finish the game so strong,” Dietel said. Jordan sits a top the Minnesota River Conference standings with a 7-0 record, two games ahead of WatertownMayer and Mayer Lutheran. The next few weeks are big for Jordan as they play six conference games, including ones against Watertown-Mayer and Mayer-Lutheran.

Belle Plaine edges Jordan Boys pick up first win in conference BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

The Jordan boys basketball team lost a tough game on Tuesday night. The Hubmen were hoping to get their second straight Minnesota River Conference win but Belle Plaine had other ideas. The Tigers outlasted Jordan and defeated the Hubmen 74-72. â&#x20AC;&#x153; T hey made more plays down the stretch than we did and they earned the win,â&#x20AC;? head coach Matt Urbanek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The second game with them will be another good matchup.â&#x20AC;? The loss drops Jordanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s record to 5-8 and 1-5 in conference play. The game was close throughout with neither team able to build up a huge lead. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was a hard fought game by both teams,â&#x20AC;? Urbanek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played pretty solid defense and then had trouble getting the ball back with a

rebound. Second chance points really hurt us.â&#x20AC;? Offensively, it was one of Jordanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s better games of the season. It was the second highest point total they have scored all season and they shot 44 percent for the game including hitting 12 three-pointers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We shot well and I think we shared the ball and moved the ball better than we have all year,â&#x20AC;? Urbanak said. Nate Beckman hit five of those three pointers and fi nished with a team high 17 points. Micah Hennen also finished with 17 points after hitting three three-pointers. Jake Anderson and Kevin Way also reached double figures with 15 and 11 points respectively.

UP AND DOWN Members of the Jordan boys basketball team were feeling

good about themselves after getting their fi rst conference win last Thursday night. It only lasted until Saturday, when they ran into a ranked St. Peter team. The Hubmen earned their fi rst Minnesota River Conference win when they defeated Sibley East 55-47 at home on Thursday. Two days after the win, they traveled to St. Peter and lost 9145 to the fi fth-ranked Saints. In the win against the Wolverines, Jordan got a balanced attack. Four players scored in double figures to get the win. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This was an impor tant game for us, as it was a subsection and a conference game,â&#x20AC;? Urbanek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always play very pretty and we missed more shots than we made, but I thought we played very hard.â&#x20AC;? Jordan led 27-23 at halftime and was able to push its lead to double digits in the second half. Sibley East never gave up, cutting the lead down to four late in the game, but Jordan held off its opponent by hitting free throws. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our players are buying

into the concept that positive energy, work ethic, hard-nosed defense, fighting for loose balls, et cetera, will give you a chance to win every night, no matter what else happens,â&#x20AC;? Urbanek said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I was proud of our players tonight (last Thursday).â&#x20AC;? Anderson led the scoring charge with 15 points.

outhwest Newspapers will promote Jeans Day and all the participating businesses in each of its seven community newspapers every month. We’ll provide you with Jeans Day stickers for your participating employees to wear. We also will give you “table tents” to explain to customers why employees are dressed casually. Southwest Newspapers retains less than 10% of the donations to cover the cost of stickers, mailings and other promotional material. Southwest Newspapers also donates all the ads placed in the paper promoting Jeans Day. In short, this program will cost you nothing. It will boost employee morale. It will pleasantly unite all of the Greater Southwest Metro area for a worthwhile cause, and hopefully will raise lots of money for local non-proﬁts. If you have any questions or suggestions, please contact Jennifer Sorenson at jsorenson@ swpub.com or 952-3456477. Thanks, Jeans Day Committee

Cable TV to cost 58 cents more a month – city gets money BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Comcast subscibers in Jordan will pay an increase of 58 cents per month, due to a recent agreement with the city. Brokered on behalf of Jordan by City Administrator Ed Shukle and attorney Brian Grogan and passed by the Jordan City Council early this month, the 10year cable franchise agreement will net Jordan 5 percent of the company’s gross revenues in the city, as well. In the past, payments from Comcast have covered the cost of cable equipment used at Jordan Community Education and Recreation, which runs the community cable channel. Comcast has agreed to make cable service available at all Jordan schools, as well as the soon-to-be-built Jordan library, although it’s not in writing yet, according to Grogan of Moss & Barnett and Shukle. “That’s the pledge we’ve gotten from Comcast,” Grogan said. “We have commitment that the company will do that with no cost to the city.” Councilmembers voted 4-3 in favor of the agreement on Jan. 3 but also said they want more. Councilmembers Joe Thill, Sally Schultz and Tanya Velishek voted against the agreement. Thill, a former Comcast employee, said that the revenues won’t be enough for the city to run fiberoptics to the Jordan Athletic Complex, on the Jor-

dan Public Schools campus, for use in live broadcasting of football, softball and baseball games, for example. But Comcast could afford to pay for it, Thill added. “That’s something that we could do,” Shukle said, also noting that the contract would need to be renegotiated. “We can probably do it, but it’s going to unravel this deal,” Grogan said. Lots of cities receive more from Comcast than Jordan will receive, Thill and Grogan said. Grogan said that those cities’ fees ref lect the wants of the respective cities. In Roseville, where the cable commission owns two trucks wired with TV equipment and has hired a news team, each subscriber pays Comcast $3.10 a month – money that goes to the city. It might cost $30,000 to connect the ball fields to fiberoptic cable, Thill said. “I don’t know how much that’s going to affect the bill.” To his credit, Shukle drove a hard bargain in negotiations, Grogan said. “We didn’t hit every single goal.” Councilmember Jeremy Goebel said the schools probably would incur costs under Thill’s idea. Wireless equipment would be significantly cheaper, Goebel said. Plus, he added, “How many people are going to actually watch it live? I’m saying maybe 100 people.” The city has the ability to broadcast sports events on delay.

“We’re still not taking care of what we’ve got,” Mayor Pete Ewals said. While Thill wanted to table the agreement for more negotiations, as well as talks with the school district, Councilmember Thom Boncher pointed at the proper negotiations, a job well done, and lack of reason to delay the agreement. “Have Comcast present to us some a la carte options outside of the contract,” Boncher suggested. “We’ve got leverage here,” Thill said, “and I don’t like letting leverage go for 10 years.” Instead of siding with Thill or asking for Boncher’s options, though, the council opted to pass the agreement contingent on receiving a letter stating the complimentary considerations at St. John’s school to which Comcast has agreed. On Comcast following through with its offers, Boncher said: “I have every faith.” Using a letter, rather than the franchise agreement, to commit to providing services is likely to be agreeable to the cable company, Grogan said. As one of the fi rst in the state to finish its overdue agreement with Comcast, Jordan with its agreement sets a precedent for 60 to 80 upcoming contracts. Comcast had been operating for a year in Jordan according to a month-to-month extension to the past agreement.

BRIDGE continued from page 1

Several city officials have said they think the railroad is unlikely to offer an extension on the crossing agreement. At this week’s council meeting, Loose announced his good news: “I’m confident we’re going to meet the railroad’s deadlines, unless something unexpected comes up.” When dealing with the railroad, though, the council has come to expect the unexpected. Jordan Mayor Pete Ewals asked Loose to clarify his confidence level on meeting the deadline. “I’m 99 percent confident,” Loose answered. “Put it in writing,” Jordan City Counci lmember Joe T hi l l ha l fjoked. “I left 1 percent there,” Loose shot back calmly, also in jest. So why can the city make its endof-the-year deadline? Last week, the State Historic Preservation Office decided to get out of the way, Loose said. “The SHPO hurdle has been removed.” The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers informed city staff that SHPO’s interests, once as broad as studying an expansive historic district from the Mini-Met to the former Herder Cigar Factory, have been pared down to merely seeing through the relocation of the historic bridge’s decorative railings and requiring an interpretive sign featuring the bridge.

“This big step allows us to move forward with final design,” Loose wrote in a memorandum to the council. Loose’s schedule notes these end dates for work plan elements: bridge design review by February; fi nalize design by April; agency review by May; address fi nal agency comments by May; fi nal agency approval by June; advertise, bid and award a construction contract by July; and construction by December. SHPO will want the historic railings to be salvaged and reinstalled at the nearby Pekarna Park. And Loose said that this week he hopes to complete discussions with Carl Day, owner of the Feedmill Restaurant, which abuts the bridge. Councilmember Thom Boncher asked about funding for the bridge: Will the project require an increase in taxes, or will the city “try to get Carl to raise his coffee fees?” Neither, necessarily, Boncher was told. The state is committed to paying $610,000 for the proposed bridge deck and railings, and the city already has more than $112,000 spent on the project. That leaves $308,000 to come from the Municipal State Aid (MSA) program. Plus, the city will cover the cost of demolition, architectural upgrades, decorative options, approaches, coordination with the restaurant and the railroad, or any “soft costs,” Loose has said.

The one-act play program is returning this year after three years of being put on hold because of budget cuts. The last one was staged in 2009. Hanek has acted in several performances at the high

school, and most recently worked under Anthony Rydberg in “Completely Hollywood (abridged).” That helped her prepare to lead “Don’t Look Down.” In directing “Don’t Look Down,” she decided what to do each day in rehearsals, worked through the scenes, and asked lots of questions. Later, she could step back and only stop

the rehearsals occasionally, to give guidance. With days before the show, she lets the cast run through the scenes and takes notes to share. “At this point, they can basically run the show themselves, they don’t need me. And that’s the goal,” Hanek said. Hanek isn’t planning to major in drama in college,

but said she hopes to act in plays wherever she decides to attend. She said directing the show is a huge time commitment. Between running through rehearsals and going home to re-read the script, she puts in about three to four hours a day, plus time on the weekends. “It’s a lot of work,” Hanek said. For actors, being part of a one-act play can afford different kinds of opportunities than a longer production, mainly because there are smaller casts. “One act is a lot different,” said Dillon Baxendell, who plays an officer in “Don’t Look Down.” He was part of the cast in the last play, which had about 30 people playing parts. “With five people, it’s more easy to get involved,” Baxendell said. But is having three plays triple the work for Rydberg? Not quite, he said. He’s directing one of the three, and he said it helps to have Hanek doing well as director. With someone less capable, he might be forced to step in to do damage control, he said. “She’s been so on the ball. She’s been mature beyond her years with the leadership,” Rydberg said.

Public performances: 7:30 p.m. Friday, Jan. 20, and 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 21, at Jordan High School, 600 Sunset Drive Tickets: $5 for adults; $3 for students Competitive performance: Saturday, Jan. 28, at Waseca High School (time to be announced) Info: (952) 492-4400 PHOTO BY DAVID SCHUELLER

Dillon Baxendell (right) plays an officer who tries to convince Ethan Palmer as Paul to step to safety. In the dark comedy “Don’t Look Down,” Paul steps out onto a ledge simply to retrieve his money, and he soon finds his mental state going down hill. Reprints are available at photosjordannews. com.

attempt in the spring or fall productions. Each of the three one-act plays should offer something a bit different for audiences. One is serious, one’s a comedy, and Hanek’s show is dark comedy. Ethan Palmer plays Paul, in a role that’s a step up from his role as an executioner in “The Comedy of Errors” last year. Paul wins some money at the horse track, goes home and sets it on a window sill. Then it blows off to the ledge. Of course, he goes after his money. Then his vertigo takes over. Soon enough, his family and friends show up and don’t quite have the intended effect on Paul. “It’s a great show. It’s pretty funny,” Hanek said.

The cast of the competition one-act play will be on stage later this month at Waseca High School. Many of the cast members in the other two will likely consider joining the spring play, judging from the carry-over in cast members between high school shows. Still, the one-act program lets some students step into higher roles that they might not

See three one-act plays each night ‘NEW YORK’ “New York” is a drama. Nine people unable to cope with their feelings of loss, grief and guilt following 9/11 turn to a therapist to seek guidance through their anguish. The play is directed by Anthony Rydberg. The cast consists of: Reinah Thom as a teacher; Madeline Struck as a doctor; Austin Hovland as a fireman; Barbara Stier as a pilot (Suzanne); Morgan Krull as a stepdaughter (Sarah); George Neves as Oklahoma (Jed); Kimberly Seifert as a caregiver; Michelle Holbeck as a plane girl; Alyssa Clay as a babysitter; and Anne Colling as Mary.

‘THREE DOORS TO DEATH’

‘DON’T LOOK DOWN’ “Don’t Look Down” is a dark comedy. A simple lapse in judgment draws Paul Kramer out onto the ledge outside his 14th floor apartment. Once there, in the clutches of vertigo, Paul’s loved ones – his best friend, his mother and his wife – try to show him life is worth living. The results are somewhat ... unhelpful. The play is directed by Sarah Hanek. The cast consists of: Ethan Palmer as Paul; Dillon Baxendell as an officer; Dylan Foline as Morty and a doctor; Haley Kreuser as Sylvia; and Paige Moran as Adele.

“Three Doors to Death” is a comedy. When a murder takes place at a local community theater rehearsal, one relentless detective will stop at nothing to find the killer. He is aided on the case by his partner: the audience. The play is directed by Karen Steinhoff. The cast consists of: Brittany Beck as Audrey; Kyle Patch as Gordon; Autumn Wheelock as Phyllis; Spencer Kubista as Paul; Sammi Twite as Jeannette; David Pankratz as Woolrich; Emily Stocker as Barbara; Kinzie Tiegs as Dolly; and Rachel Langager as an officer.
