INDEPENDENT How to save thousands by attending high school College in schools push continues BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

College and high school credit at the same time? It’s a bonus for students who can handle the workload, and could save money for a school district. Next year, Jordan High School students might be able to take University of Minnesota courses from their own high school teachers, in their own high school. “We have the kids here who are capable of the work,” said Principal Barb McNulty. “Let’s give them the opportunity.” The idea of offering college courses in Jordan isn’t new at the high school. Spanish teacher Amy Peters already is certified to teach Spanish courses through Minnesota State University (MSU) in Mankato. But the push to offer a range of college classes picked up steam last February when the high school entered into a partnership with MSU. At that time, administrators hoped to have students in the classes this year. However, much like a college student looking for direction, the process was delayed. The high school basically decided to switch schools – from MSU to the University of Minnesota. The reason for the change: course offerings. Curriculum Director Carol Lagergren said the rigor and application standards are similar, as is the ability to transfer the credits. However, MSU doesn’t offer as many class choices – like calculus, for example.

“How is that not a sex act?” Jordan Police Chief Bob Malz said, as Craig Marte defends himself in front of the Jordan City Council on Monday. A folder full of photographs, as well as videos taken by an undercover agent, will be used against the owner of Jack’s Bar and Grill, who has been charged with operating a sexually oriented business without a license.

More than just a bar Jack’s Bar and Grill gets $500 fine for putting on adult event BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

For more than a year, Jack’s Bar and Grill has advertised male strippers and held oil wrestling events with paid female performers. On Monday, the Jordan City Council found that the downtown Jordan business had been operating a sexually oriented business without a license and issued a fi ne of $500. “I couldn’t believe that this happened in Jordan,” Councilmember Mike Shaw said. “Maybe I’m naïve, living a sheltered life.”

FINE, PLUS CHARGES There are civil and criminal sides to Jack’s case. This week, the Scott County Attorney’s Office came down with identical charges against both Craig Marte, owner, and Darlene Annen, manager, in regard to a performance Nov. 15. According to

the complaints, they were charged with two counts each of: I producing, presenting, participating or directing an obscene performance; I operating a sexually oriented business without a license; I and permitting nudity on the premises of a licensed bar. Groups known as the Hunks, and Hollywood Knockouts performed at the bar, according to the business’ Facebook page and police and court records. Jordan Police Chief Bob Malz presented a three-ring binder of evidence, including photos, and an undercover agent shot video during a recent show. “Tell me that isn’t sexual contact,” Malz said in an interview, calling what happened “inappropriate sexual touching that you wouldn’t even see in a strip joint.

“We obviously just can’t have that going on. … I don’t believe that the (alleged) touching of intimate parts would be legal.”

CIVIL PENALTY The issue “has not been to a court,” City Attorney Annette Margarit told the city council. “You’re it.” The council held a hearing, listening to evidence and rebuttals, and found the bar committed two violations of its city liquor license – operation of a sexually oriented business without a license, and nudity at a liquor establishment. City staff recommended a $1,000 fi ne and a three- to five-day liquor license suspension. “It’s a fi rst-time violation for the bar, so we feel this is appropriate,” City Administrator Ed Shukle said.

IDEA FACTORY: MUSEUM

Group of residents work to help preserve history

SANTA WON’T BITE!

For years, Ron Jabs has wanted a museum in Jordan. “We do have a proud history, and there are some very, very interesting things that happened in out community,” Jabs said. The city has received many valuable donations, but not all of them can be displayed. And the fact is that he and fellow aspiring preservationists Cathy Isles and Ed Shukle admittedly don’t have the wherewithal to take care of historical artifacts. So they sought to create a Jordan historical society. They inquired with the Scott County Historical Society, only to receive surprising advice and fi nd a wholly willing partner.

They are looking for willing volunteers, artifacts, interviewers to find stories behind the artifacts, suggestions for potential exhibits, and ideas. “It’s a brainstorming effort,” group member Ron Jabs said. “The potential is quite large,” Jordan City Administrator Ed Shukle said. For more information, call Shukle at Jordan’s city hall, (952) 492-2535.

ELECTION 2012

Should mayor run for re-election, he’ll face once-defeated opponent

Radermacher’s

Hometown Traditions

BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Should the Jordan mayor choose to run for re-election next year, he’ll face at least one challenger. This week, Dan Elke threw his name into the ring for election in 2012, making his announcement on jordannews. com and then contacting the Jordan Independent. “I’m hoping it would inspire others to run,” said Elke, 47, a Jordan Economic Development Authority (EDA) member who in a press release said he would promote teamwork even through difficult situations, rather than “instigate upheaval” or put up “unsuccessful and expensive legal roadblocks.” Elke grew up in Jordan, married 13 years ago, is retired, parents three school-aged child ren, coaches com mu nityeducation baseball and softball, helped put on the Easter egg hunt, and hopes to get his wildlife painting immortalized on a stamp. He said he has really tough skin – politically, and literally.

That’s no bull.” In office, Ewals has drawn fi re and praise for his stances against a downtown crematory. He also brought up environmental concerns about a gravel pit proposed by a Jordan contractor. Elke said in the interview that he won’t throw stones at any candidate, but in his press release, he pointed a fi nger at the mayor. “When the process becomes interrupted and failure to communicate ef fectively is the chosen path, which seems to be the current mayor’s idea of governing,” Elke wrote, “this in the end only hurts the project, the people and in the end nobody wins.”

His platform is rebuilding Jordan’s deteriorating “outward perceptions,” in an effort “promote our abundant assets and strive to attract appropriate business features to our town,” he wrote. Elke said in an interview that he would like to see multiple candidates take on Ewals in the upcoming election. Elections need a good mix of “conservative to less conservative ... but all trying to get it done,” Elke said. In 2008, Elke faced Ewals and then-incumbent Mayor Ron Jabs.

Jordan Mayor Pete Ewals signed a crematory-related zoning ordinance that he disputed in court. “I actually did it today,” the mayor told the Jordan City Council on Monday.

Radermacher’s Fuel Express Open 24 hours

Scott County District Court Judge Michael Fahey ruled on the crematory zoning amendment that “yeah, you may think it’s illegal, but it’s not obviously illegal,” according to Ewals. Clearly, though, Fahey also ruled that a mayor must fulfi ll his ministerial duty by signing documents passed by the city council.

“He made a r u li ng, a nd I’m going to follow it,” Ewals said. When it was Councilmember Mike Shaw’s turn to talk, Shaw added that he read the Fahey ruling to say that if the mayor chooses not to sign, “you’d have a veto on anything you want.”

REMEMBRANCE RUN

25 years of reconciliation for Native Americans, whites BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Two Twin Cities-made documentaries will be shown in Jordan on an early morning during the Remembrance Run, which annually commemorates the largest mass hanging in the history of the U.S. and seeks reconciliation of age-old strife. “Dakota Exile” and “The Dakota Conflict” can be locally watched before the sun rises on Monday, Dec. 26. From 3 a.m. to 6 a.m., the Hub of Jordan, 231 Broadway St., will be hosting runners – serving them soup, hot chocolate and coffee – and recalling Dec. 26, 1862, the fateful end of war between whites and Native Americans, and a dark cloud over Minnesota’s past. Last year, 50 people volunteered or visited the downtown Jordan rest stop – and they learned something about intercultural relations. “You get a history of Minnesota that most people don’t know about,” said Bob Schmitz, who organizes the stop on the Remembrance Run route from Fort Snelling to Mankato. In 1862, while other U.S. militias were fighting the Civil War, Minnesotans stayed home, even petitioning President Abraham

If you go ... Who: Native Americans and whites who want reconciliation for the past What: The 25th annual Remembrance Run When: 12:05 a.m. to before noon on Monday, Dec. 26 (3 a.m. to 6 a.m. at the Hub of Jordan, 231 Broadway St. in Jordan) Where: Fort Snelling to Land of Memories Park in Mankato Why: To remember the events of 1862 – the conflict, the 38 who were hanged in Mankato, the internment at Fort Snelling, and more Info: (952) 492-7804

Lincoln to recall troops, to fight their own, smaller but no less significant civil war against Native Americans. Hundreds of Native Americans and settlers were killed when broken treaties, dishonest agents, near starvation and late annuity payments erupted into what has been called the bloodiest time in Minnesota history, Schmitz said.

BOB SCHMITZ OF JORDAN INVITES YOU TO PARTICIPATE IN OFFERING RUNNERS A BLESSING ON DEC. 26. TO READ HIS LETTER TO THE EDITOR, TURN TO PAGE 4.

The out-of-publication KTCATV documentaries are enlightening for those who haven’t studied the Dakota Conflict of 1862, Schmitz said. Although some elders don’t agree 100 percent with the videos’ portrayals of Native Americans, their reaction has been positive overall, he added. Twenty-five years ago, Willard Malebear responded to his recurring dream by starting the Remembrance Run, to bring healing between Native Americans and white men. In the dream, he is running alongside two people, a Native American and a white, along a route from Fort Snelling, where thousands of Native Americans were interned at a camp in 1862, and Mankato, where 38 Dakota warriors hanged to death. The run follows that route, beginning at Fort Snelling at 12:05 a.m. on Monday, the anniversary of the hanging. It continues through Eagan,

Burnsville, Savage, Shakopee, Jordan, Belle Plaine, and St. Peter, among other cities, on its way to Land of Memories Park in Mankato. The route follows Highway 13, then county roads 101 and 69, to Highway 169 to Mankato, where the run ends before noon Dec. 26. The run has grown, with groups of runners following a leader, who carries a feathered staff. Normally, a group runs a few miles before giving way to the next group of runners. Especially on a cold winter’s night, they need a warm place to stop. “It’s quite an ordeal for people,” Schmitz said. “They’re up all night.” Offering hot food and drinks halfway through the relay run is one way of reaching out, Schmitz said. Jordan has been doing so since 2002. White people can run the route, said Schmitz, who has also done that. They might instead opt to get up in the wee hours of the morning to serve soup, or observe the run. “It takes an effort,” Schmitz said, “because of when it is – in the middle of the night, and after Christmas.” Next year, 2012, is the 150th anniversary of the Dakota Conflict.

Unplugged Monthly worship reaches locals BY MATHIAS BADEN editor@jordannews.com

Jeremy Peters, outreach pastor at Brookwood Community Church in Shakopee, says the Jordan brewery offers an aesthetically welcoming place for the Unplugged worship services. “At night, it’s brighter, with the candlelight,” he added. “The acoustics are amazing.”

HISTORY continued from page 1

She suggested that the county historical society would be the safest home for the artifacts owned by the city, which in the past stored them at Log Cabin Park and more recently in the basement of the city hall. Creating a local historical society wouldn’t be worth the trouble, Klehr said, when much of what Jordan residents want can be provided for no fee from the county historical society. She told Isles, Jabs a nd Shukle that the county historical society would appreciate an advisory group forming in Jordan and offered to store, restore, and handle the oftendelicate items from Jordan’s past. The historical society has the experience to put together regularly rotating exhibits that tell Jordan’s story. The historical society is already supported by Jordan. “Many of Jordan’s residents are members,” Shukle said. Partnering with the historical society would give Jordan’s historical artifacts the respect they deserve, Jabs said. The new organization will “find a good home for them, have them well preserved, and then

Unplugged is not a new church, yet. Associate Pastor Jeremy Peters would like the historic brewery to become home to a church in Jordan, but he said: “We’re going about it organically. ... It’s going to take time, and we’re OK with that.” An outpost of Brookwood Community Church in Shakopee, Unplugged offers primarily acoustic contemporary music and Bible-based teaching in a oncea-month candlelight service where people can “come as you are,” Peters said. “If nothing else, we’re going to be warm and encouraging for you.” Although it’s nondenominational, Brookwood was four years ago a plant of Wooddale Church in Eden Prairie, and they are both affiliated with the 4 C’s – Conservative Congregational Christian Conference. Each month at Unplugged, either Peters, a Bethel University graduate who for 2-1/2 years has been Brookwood’s outreach and student ministry pastor, or senior pastor Rob O’Neal speaks to attendees under the stone arches of the brewery. Brookwood has set churchplanting goals, and Jordan was the primary location build on what’s out there.” An expanded group of local historical preservationists will meet for the fi rst time in early to mid-January, Shukle said.

USING THE LIBRARY Recent talks about a museum are tied to discussions about a new library. A few years ago, Jabs was eyeing the current library building, the former Jordan State Bank, as a potential location for a Jordan museum. Then, after recent negotiations succeeded, Jabs conceptualized a museum room in the soon-to-be-built library, near the Triangle Business District. But in a partnership to build the library with Scott County Housing and Redevelopment Agency, the architects came up with a concept involving various historical exhibit display cases spread throughout the library. Now that the city is staring a new library in the face, “there are pictures and things we’re actually kind of excited about displaying at the (new) library,” Jabs said. “You want to use what you’ve got.”

GRANT APPLICATION Shukle has assigned Isaac Kerry, planning intern, to work on a Legacy amendment grant application to preserve

the church studied for expansion. But Brookwood’s pastors won’t just put up a sign and expect people to come to church. “We want people to connect to God in the way that they best connect to God,” Peters said. In Jordan, Brookwood’s outreach program began last spring, when the church started a study in how to read the Bible, upstairs at the brewery. The reception – five to 10 people – wasn’t overwhelming. Since then, the church has hosted Jordan Area Chamber of Commerce Coffee Hour and been involved at Heimatfest. Creating a presence in Jordan eventually will affect attendance, Peters said. In September, the church held its first worship service at the brewery, complete with a keg of Killebrew Root Beer. “We’re in a brewery. We know it.” Peters said. “We’re wanting to play it off as ironic, so let’s go for it.” Next, the church will offer early-Christmas services by candlelight. Small groups launch in January. Little by little, Unplugged ought to grow into something bigger, the outreach pastor said assuredly. “We could add 10 more churches here, and there still wouldn’t be enough.” local culture. Kerry will take inventory of the artifacts in the city hall basement, some of the most noticeable of which are an elaborately carved hat rack and an organ. The city will seek state money to care for them. The application is due within the next couple of months, Shukle estimated.

ROTATING EXHIBITS Should the city receive a Legacy grant, Shukle said he hopes it covers display cases that can be placed at the library. Then, historical displays can be rotated throughout the year. “I think we have more things than we would have space for,” Shukle said. Local preservationists or historians could offer ideas, volunteer time, or make donations. “I think there’s some real opportunities here,” Jabs said. “It’s kind of a matter of getting organized, getting it so you can appreciate some of the stories behind all this. … I don’t think anyone’s got a preconceived notion of how to make this a success.” Klehr is in waiting mode. “We’re going to take our cue from what the citizens of Jordan decide,” she said. “It’s all pretty open right now. The door’s wide open.”

Remember 1862 The Dakota-U.S. war of 1862 ended with 38 Dakota warriors executed by hanging in Mankato. At 12:05 a.m. Monday, Native Americans will participate in the 25th annual Remembrance Run from Fort Snelling, where thousands of Dakota people were detained after the war, to Mankato, where Native Americans were executed as prisoners of war. As runners pass significant sites on the route from St. Paul to Mankato, they might sing or chant and drum. They pass a staff from runner to runner as they go. Organizers of the Remembrance Run encourage spectators to bring signs and offer encouragement along the runners’ route. For more information about the run or the rest stop, call Bob Schmitz at 952-492-7804.

The Optometric View

by Dr. Vicki Borowicz CONTRACTING CONJUNCTIVITIS Because children indiscriminately rub their eyes and are in close contact with other children at school and in day care, they are highly susceptible to contracting conjunctivitis, or “pink eye.” This very common infectious eye disease produces inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin transparent membrane that lines the inner surfaces of the eyelid and folds back to cover the front surface of the eyeball. The first symptom of conjunctivitis is eye discomfort, followed by redness, inflammation, and a discharge that crusts over. Treatment varies according to type. While bacterial conjunctivitis responds to prescription antibiotic drops or ointment, viral conjunctivitis will disappear on its own. Either can be soothed with warm compresses applied to closed eyes. It is important to stay informed in order to keep the eyes of you and your family healthy and stylish, in a friendly and comfortable environment. Every patient is offered an eye exam, and provided with premium products and enhanced technology. We are located at 223 E. First Street, Suite 101. Call for your eye exam today at (952)-492-2350! P.S. Allergic conjunctivitis is an allergic response that may clear up when the allergen is removed.

EDITORIAL

Give Where You Live, help others year-round The Scott Carver Dakota Community Action Partnership (CAP) has set a goal for its annual Give Where You Live fund-raising campaign – $1 million by Jan. 31 – to support agency programs. The annual campaign has been the agency’s primary fund-raising mechanism for several years. As the holidays approach and people are busy planning celebrations and gifts for their friends and family, the CAP Agency asks that they remember their neighbors who are less fortunate. As everyone knows, these are difficult economic times. Many people are unemployed, while others are underemployed – working one, two or even three jobs in an effort to make ends meet. Many of our neighbors are going without food and medications.

There are people who don’t have warm winter clothing and can’t pay their heating bills or repair a faulty furnace. There are families that are homeless. The CAP Agency helps people meet their basic needs and then plan for a brighter future throughout the year. There are various ways to contribute. This year, donations can be made online through GiveMN.org, which is a fund-raising tool by which donors are encouraged to “click, contribute, and change your world.” For other ways to support the Scott Carver Dakota CAP Agency, go to capagency.org. Those who prefer to not donate online can send checks to: CAP Agency, 712 Canterbury Road S., Shakopee, MN 55379. T h e S h a k o p e e Va l l e y N e w s originally published this editorial.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR REMEMBRANCE RUN

Be part of blessing Native American run To the editor: Merry Christmas. Again this year, I want to extend an invitation to help be a blessing this Christmas season to the Native American runners who will be traveling through Jordan early morning on Dec. 26 on their route from Fort Snelling to Mankato. The run remembers the tragic events of 1862, and its purpose is to bring healing and reconciliation. A Native American pastor friend, Fern Cloud, who at one time was living in Jordan, was looking for a warm place for the runners to stop along the route. For 10 years now, starting in 2002, the people of Jordan have warmly hosted the runners and their families, serving them free hot food and drinks. The Native American relay runners will again be stopping at the Hub of Jordan LLC at 231 Broadway St. from 3 a.m. to about 6 a.m. to warm up and be served. Please give me a call at (952) 4927804 if you are able to help serve or help with expenses.

Food shelf distributes 90,000 pounds of food To the editor: The Jordan Area Food Shelf has had another successful year and is celebrating a wonderful Christmas season. This year, our food shelf has serviced, on a regular basis from January to Dec. 1, a total of 350 families. We have many different families with many different needs. Some of our families come occasionally and some very regularly, all with the same very real needs that families all over our nation are experiencing during these very challenging and difficult economic times. We are so blessed to be in a community that practices and believes in helping their fellow neighbors in time of need, a community that works to help and provide that very basic need of food. Just one week’s worth of food may help in an immense way to restore relief and dignity to a family struggling. During 2011, the Jordan Area Food Shelf has serviced an average of 120 households per month. Those households combined per month totaled an average of 475 individuals, with 205 of those individuals being children. From Jan. 1 to Dec. 1, we distributed 90,051 pounds of food to our friends and neighbors, all Jordan families with a need. For that, we thank the citizens of Jordan for their support and compassionate hearts.

St. John the Baptist Catholic School children worked a game board project last week, and Principal Bonnie Jungles brought them last Friday night. We have received so much from so many, but during the holiday season, it is especially heartwarming when the children of Jordan band together with excitement and so much love to create projects to help those in need. I am so proud of them all. This Christmas, we have had food drives and projects from all of the schools from which we take such pride and joy! Our food shelf received food, money, homemade cards to decorate the building and brand new game boards for the children for Christmas. The children do make it a joyous season full of sincere love, caring and the excitement of giving. We are so very blessed to have them. A sincere thank you to everyone in the Jordan community from myself and all of us at the Jordan Area Food Shelf. May God bless you all with the joy and peace of Christmas now and throughout the New Year.

The 2011 holiday band concert for Jordan middle and high school students gave audiences holiday tunes like “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch,” “Silent Night,” and “O Christmas Tree.” There was also a Christmas pop sing-along. Here, Mady Struck plays the piccolo.

So the high school is looking to partner with the U of M on a range of classis, while staying with MSU for Spanish. “It’s a better fit if we want to offer more opportunities for our students,” Lagergren said. Should the high school get approved, and teachers successfully apply, students might be able to start taking the U of M classes in Jordan starting next school year. “That’s our hope,” McNulty said. Students could take the courses in their junior or senior years. Teachers would need to apply and be accepted by the university. The district would pay about $145 per student per course, plus money for books. However, the district would look to save money by recapturing state aid that follows students when they enroll in postsecondary enrollment option (PSEO) classes at colleges. Such courses cost the district about $480 per class per student, McNulty said, which equals about $12,000. “I think we’d be recovering that $12,000,” she told Jordan School Board members at the Dec. 12 meeting. McNulty was looking to board members for informal approval with the

Will Jordan students leave for places like Normandale Community College (below), or will they take college classes in Jordan?

Saving money for students and the school district is one among several reasons administrators are pushing for a college in the schools program at Jordan High School. Students get free college credit, and the district doesn’t lose money like it does when students leave to go to a college through a postsecondary enrollment option (PSEO) program. State aid dollars lost from one hour of

direction administrators are heading with the idea. Board members seemed warm to the idea of college in the schools courses. “I’m excited,” said Board Member Joe Benko.

WHY NOT AP? Compared to advanced placement (AP) courses, the college in the schools classes might have an advantage for some students. The AP courses require a test at the end, and

students who don’t do well on the test don’t get college credit. Do well in a college in the schools class, on the other hand, and the credit would be accepted by most colleges, excluding some Ivy League schools and Macalester College in St. Paul. “There are very few colleges that won’t accept a (college in the schools) transcript,” McNulty said. For the high school and the district, the challenge

of college could keep some students learning in their home district. In a meeting with parents of sophomores, McNulty said, she recently shared results of a test aimed at prepping students for the American College Test (ACT), a backbone of the college admissions process. “We have some really bright sophomores who are either going to take off, or we can keep them in our building,” McNulty said.

In the soothing thoughts that spring Out of human suffering; In the faith that looks through death, In years that bring the philosophic mind.

Mom & Dad brought you home from the hospital on Christmas Day, 1953. As we (your sisters & your brother) hovered over you in your bassinet, we couldn’t believe that mom had you. You seemed like a miracle and I loved you instantly. As you grew, you became the sparkplug of our family. Even while you bravely endured MS, your capacity to make us laugh was exceeded only by your capacity to make us feel loved. You brought us closer together and I will hold you in my heart forever. You were the best Christmas present I ever received.

We miss you so much, sister, Karen and family.

“F r a n k ly, I don’t t h i n k they’re going to pay the $1,000,” Councilmember Sally Schultz said, supporting the proposed license suspension. “I think that a $1,000 fi ne is insufficient,” Councilmember Thom Boncher said, requesting the maximum of $2,000 as an option. “Revoking the license for any number of days is a meaningless penalty.” As well as reducing the fi ne to $500, the council decided not to suspend the license. The result of a license suspension is “he’s not going to make money,” Councilmember Tanya Velishek said. “It’d be like if you took a farmer’s tractor away,” Shaw agreed. “Everybody is struggling, and everybody is trying to bring business into town,” Mayor Pete Ewals said while also not condoning the business’ actions. The business will have 60 days to pay, according to the council’s 5-2 vote on the fi ne. Boncher and Schultz voted against the motion.

and said he would withdraw the maximum amount, about $200, and use the money to buy winter clothes and items for his car, according to the complaint. Stocker also told police he was able to use the card’s personal identification number after overhearing the card owner tell the number to her granddaughter, who sometimes borrowed and returned the card. Stocker is scheduled to appear in Scott County court on Jan. 13.

“I couldn’t believe that this happened in Jordan. Maybe I’m naïve, living a sheltered life.” Mike Shaw Jordan City Council member Annen and Marte each spoke in their defense during the council meeting. “I don’t think we did anything wrong,” Marte said in a phone interview before the hearing. “We didn’t know.” In front of the council, he brought up the same point, to which Schultz replied: “I can imagine that you didn’t shut that down.” “It’s harmless fun. My granddaughter was there,” Marte said, noting that his granddaughter is 22 years old. As for the alleged nudity, specifically women lifting up their shirts, Marte said: “On a regular busy night, locals are doing it. … Haven’t you ever been to a strip club?” Marte wondered out loud why the city let the events occur. He said if someone would’ve told the bar that its actions were against ordinances, it would have stopped.

“You can only plead ignorance once,” Ewals said, affi rming that he would support a full fi ne if a second violation occurs. The council also found the bar violated a second ordinance, which bans nudity at liquor establishments. C ou nci l memb er Jeremy Goebel said that photography publicized on Jack’s Facebook page were “graphic in nature,” but he added: “I don’t believe it falls into the definition of nudity.” The council voted 6-1 in favor of the fi nding, with Goebel dissenting.

T here i s no st a nd a rd policy for Taser use in Minnesota. Record keeping on Taser use varies considerably across the state. Law enforcement agencies rely overwhelmingly on Taser International, the manufacturer of Tasers, for their training, which raises concerns about a conflict of interest. There is no standard policy regarding use of Tasers on people suffering mental health crises. The ACLU-MN recommended, among other actions, that there be a uniform, statewide use of force continuum which places Tasers higher than hard, empty hands and at least at the same level as a baton. It also recommended strong restrictions on the use of force on people suffering mental health crises, according to a press release.

Cole Stocker, 21, of Jordan, was charged with felony-level fi nancial card fraud for allegedly withdrawing about $1,560 using the card of his thengirlfriend’s grandmother. Stocker allegedly used the card, issued from the West Metro School Credit Union, to withd raw money at two ATM machines in Jordan on Oct. 26. One withdrawal was allegedly made at Holiday gas

station, and another soon after at Broadway Market gas station, according to a criminal complaint. The Jordan Police Department obtained surveillance footage from both stores as part of the investigation of the case. On Oct. 31, a Jordan police officer met with Stocker, who appeared remorseful and apologetic, according to the complaint. Stocker told police that he was responsible for eight to nine transactions using the card,

The period between Christmas Eve and New Year’s Day is typically the most fi re-deadly week of the year in Minnesota, according to a press release from Jerry Rosendahl, Minnesota state fi re marshal. Cooking, candles, decorations and fireplaces are the main culprits, but in every case, lack of caution plays a role. When holiday traditions add fi re threats and we fail to take additional precautions, the outcome can quickly turn a holiday into a disaster. Rosendahl offers a few reminders: Be careful when cooking. The number-one cause of residential fi res happen when cooks are distracted and forget to watch the stovetop. Attend the candles.

PANTHERS WRESTLING

Scott West finishing with the elite Team places fourth at Christmas tourney BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

Scott West wrestling had another solid weekend. The Panthers opened the weekend with an impressive return to the Minnesota River Conference and then finished fourth at the Minnesota Christmas Tournament. The Christmas Tournament is the premier individual wrestling tournament in the state and features all the top teams coming together in Rochester. This year’s tournament featured the top 12 ranked teams in Class 3A, three of the top four teams from Class 2A and the top-ranked team in Class A. Against that fi repower, Scott West proved it’s one of the elite programs in the state, as the Panthers fi nished fourth and had nine place winners. The Panthers earned 177 points, finishing fourth. Class 3A No. 1 ranked Apple Valley Eagles won the tournament with 291.5 points, followed by Class 2A’s No. 1-ranked team, Simley, with 197.5 points. Class 3A’s No. 2-ranked team, St. Michael-Albertville, was third with 181 points. “The Minnesota Christmas Tournament is always a great event and it provides a premiere showcase for Minnesota high school wrestling,” co-head coach Darren Ripley said. “Overall, we wrestled a good tournament, and with nine place winners, which I think is a Scott West best, we did get some outstanding individual performances.” Senior Michael Kroells became only the second Scott West wrestler to win two Christmas tournament titles, as he dominated the 220-pound division. Nick Slack was the fi rst Panther to win two Christmas titles. “It’s a great accomplishment for Michael to win two in a row,” Ripley said. “Obviously, it’s not easy to win this tournament, but Michael did it in very impressive fashion by not allowing a single point to be scored against him, which is still something that he has not allowed to happen this year.” Kroells pinned his first three opponents and then defeated Class 3A’s No. 1-ranked Nick Edling of St. Michael-Albertville 8-0. In the semifi nals, Kroells earned his 100th career pin win, when he pinned Michael Burckhardt of Coon Rapids. The Panthers had one other wrestler reach the fi nals. Senior Gabe Fogarty reached the 152-pound championship match by dominating Cambridge-Isanti’s Travis Holt 12-2. Holt is ranked third in Class 3A. In the title match, Fogarty ran into Apple Valley’s newest phenom, eighth-grader Mason Manville.

Senior Nick Dvorak attempts to take his Montgomery-Lonsdale opponent to his back. He would eventually score a pin. Manville earned a first-period takedown of Fogarty and held on to win 4-2 against Fogarty. “Gabe wrestled a good tournament and a good match in the fi nals,” Ripley said. The Scott West wrestler who had the most exciting matches was senior Luke Betchwars at 120 pounds. Betchwars would fi nish in third place after dropping a 6-4 match to defending state champion Kyle Gliva of Simley in the semifi nals. He returned to the mat in the wrestle backs to top WatertownMayer’s Matt Elsenpeter 13-0. Betchwars than earned his 100th career victory by topping Wayzata’s Nick O’Brien 5-3 in overtime of the thirdplace match. Betchwars trailed 2-1 midway through the third period, before he scored a reversal for a 3-2 lead. O’Brien earned an escape to tie the match and send it into overtime. After a scoreless fi rst overtime, Betchwars took a 5-3 lead with a reversal and rode O’Brien out the rest of the way for the win. “Luke wrestled an outstanding tournament, the best of his Scott West career and what a way to get your 100th win,” Ripley said.

Freshman David Flynn fi nished fourth in his fi rst Christmas tournament at 106 pounds. Flynn defeated Class 3A’s No. 2 ranked wrestler Blaine Tschida of Coon Rapids and North Dakota’s top-ranked Ryan Blees before falling 5-3 to Albert Lea’s Trevor Westerlund. “David really wrestled an outstanding tournament,” Ripley said. “He raised his level of wrestling and it should be a real stepping stone that he can build on for his future success as a Scott West wrestler.” Other Panthers to place was Nick Dvorak fi fth at 170 pounds, Andrew Fogarty sixth at 138 pounds, Zack Siegle seventh at 113 pounds, Luke Zilverberg seventh at 126 pounds and Mike Riker eighth at 195 pounds. Dvorak was unseeded in the tournament but upset Class A’s thirdranked wrestler and Class 3A fourthranked wrestler on his way to fi fth.

DUAL WIN The Panthers returned to the Minnesota River Conference last Thursday with a 68-12 win against Montgomery-Lonsdale in Jordan. It was Scott West’s fi rst conference match since 2002.

Senior Gabe Fogarty earned a pin fall for the Panthers against Montgomery-Lonsdale at 152 pounds.

UPCOMING The schedule doesn’t get any easier for Scott West, as they welcome St. Michael-Albertville to town tonight for a showdown of top-ranked teams. The Knights are ranked second in

Class 3A and 39th in the nation. The match starts at 7 p.m. and will be at Belle Plaine High School. If you can’t get to the match, it will be available on the web at theguillotineflo.com.

HUBMEN BASKETBALL

Boys find a Way to win Senior guard Kevin Way hits three in final seconds for 46-44 victory BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

The Jordan boys basketball team rebounded from their worst game of the year with an exciting last second win on Tuesday night. The Hubmen bounced back from a 33-point loss to Le Sueur-Henderson on Friday to defeat Waseca 46-44. Against Waseca, Jordan trailed 44-43 with just seconds left in the game when senior Kevin Way drilled a three-pointer to give the Hubmen a 46-44 lead. Waseca wasn’t able to score on their fi nal possession to give Jordan the win. “We didn’t play perfectly and it wasn’t always pretty,” head coach Matt Urbanek said. “We played very hard and we played with a lot of energy. Good things happen when you do that.” Jordan started slowly as they fell behind by eight points at halftime 29-21. Things picked up for the Hubmen in the second half, especially their defense. They held the Bluejays to just 15 second-half points which allowed Jordan to get back in the game. “Our defense was the key,” Urbanek said. “It was fun to see our guys defend that way tonight.”

MORE ONLINE FOR UPDATES ON SPORTS STORIES

www.scoreboard.mn

Urbanek pointed to senior center Kurt Schansberg as being a big key in the win. “Kurt had his best game of the year,” he said. “He had some nice hustle plays and led us in rebounding.” Nate Beckman and Jack Andersen led the offense with 15 points each. All of Beckman’s points game from threepoint distance. He was five for 12 on three-point attempts in the game. “I’m proud of how our team played tonight (Tuesday) after a couple frustrating games,” Urbanek said. “We can build off this performance.”

COLD SHOOTING In their loss to Le Sueur-Henderson, Jordan struggled to put the ball in the basket. The Hubmen only scored 16 secondhalf points as the Giants handed Jordan a loss in its fi rst Minnesota River Conference game of the year. Le Sueur topped Jordan 81-48. The game was close in the first half as Jordan trailed 38-32 at halftime.

But that’s when the Hubmen went cold. Jordan scored only 16 second-half points, while Le Sueur-Henderson exploded for 43 points to outscore the Hubmen by 27 in the second half. “We had a very poor shooting night, and we really struggled to defend them off the dribble,” Urbanek said. “Most of their shots came in the paint, and most of our shots came from behind the three-point line. It’s awfully hard to win games when that happens.” The rough shooting night really did the Hubmen in as they hit nine of 28 shots from the field, seven of 37 threepointers, and nine of 22 free throws. Combine all that together and the Hubmen shot 29 percent for the game. Way led the way with 12 points. Micah Hennen and Andersen each had nine points in the loss.

RANKED OPPONENT The Hubmen will host WatertownMayer, the sixth-ranked team in Class 2A, tonight as they look for their fi rst conference win of the season. That is the last game before the Hubmen takes seven days off for the Christmas break. They return to action on Dec. 29 against Gibbon-Fairfax-Winthrop.

scoreboard JAGUARS BASKETBALL

Late rally keeps Jordan girls undefeated BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

We are starting to see a trend build for the Jordan girls basketball team. They fall behind early before picking up their game and rallying for a late win. So far that strategy is working. The Jaguars improved to 7-0 on the season by rallying in the second half to win their last two games. The latest comeback came on Tuesday night when they rallied from 12 down to defeat Mayer Lutheran 58-53. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was interesting to say the least,â&#x20AC;? head coach Greg Dietel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It took us a while but once we got going things went pretty well for us.â&#x20AC;? Jorda n st r ugg led i n t he f irst ha l f to hand le Mayer Lutheranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trapping defense. That defense forced the Jag-

uars to take a lot of quick shot s a nd prevente d t hem from getting many offensive rebounds. They only grabbed four offensive rebounds in the fi rst half. With those offensive struggles, Jordan trailed 31-19 at halftime. â&#x20AC;&#x153;In the fi rst half we allowed Mayerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trapping defense to really affect us,â&#x20AC;? Dietel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They forced us to play a lot faster than we wanted to.â&#x20AC;? In the second half, Dietel made one minor adjustment and that seemed to make all the difference. Because Mayer was trapping the ball as soon as Jordan brought it past half court, point guard Maddy Dean gave up the ball quickly. In the second half, Dietel put senior Kelsey Chambers at the point which allowed Dean to become more involved in the offense.

The move paid off as Jordan scored 39 second-half points and outscored Mayer Lutheran by 14 to get the win. Elle Case had her best offensive game of the year by scoring 19 points. Dean added 14 and Sam Hentges scored 11.

NICE RESPONSE After pulling off an upset last week, Dietel wondered how his team would respond to its next game. They responded like a team that wanted to win. The Jaguars went on a late run to defeat Norwood-Young America 65-57 last Thursday night. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Coming off a big win against Water town-Mayer just two nights earlier, I was anxious to see how our team was going to respond to a new challenge,â&#x20AC;? Dietel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the players showed that they were able to move on from that big win and

understand that each game is a new challenge.â&#x20AC;? Jordan started quickly, as Case hit two three-pointers to push the Jaguars lead to 13-5. After that, it was back and forth between the two teams. Norwood eventually would catch Jordan and tie the game at 50-50 with eight minutes left in the game. After a timeout, Jordan went on an 11-0 run in the next two minutes to take control of the game. In that run, Makayla Lambrecht and Dean each hit a three-pointer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had the necessary energy and focus the last eight minutes of the game to make plays and take control of the game,â&#x20AC;? Dietel said. Dean led the Jaguars with 18 points, followed by Caseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 16 and Chambers 14. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We certainly did not play our best game of the season

4TH-GRADERS GET RUNNER-UP

by any means,â&#x20AC;? Dietel said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Some of that had to do with what Norwood-Young America was doing, but in large part, I believe we hurt ourselves most of the game. We had a lot of unforced turnovers, and our overall team defense was not where it needed to be. That being said, I was very proud that our players found a way to win the game.â&#x20AC;?

RANKED After upsetting WatertownMayer last week, the Jordan Jaguars moved into the top 10 in the Class 2A state rankings. The Jaguars rank eighth in the state. P r ov idenc e Ac ademy i s ranked f irst with a 5 -2 re cord. They are followed by Braham, Caledonia, Hawley, Esko, Staples-Motley, and New Rich la nd-Hea r t la nd-El lendale-Geneva.

BOOKS, YOYOS, TOYS Books and yoyos and toys – oh my! Each year, the Jordaness Lions are blessed to be the distributors of 100s of books, yoyos, stuffed animals, wooden toys and crayons to children. Many of these toys will be sent home with children that participate in the Blessings in a Backpack program, to

the Jordan schools, the local food shelf, hospitals, family shelters and other places. This effort is dedicated to the memory of a past Jordanite. Mary Brown was a Jordan resident who volunteered many hours in private service to people. The club is allowed this opportunity because of Mary’s connection to a nonprofit group that provides the toys.

JOINT MEETING The Jordan and Jordaness Lions convened on Dec. 7 for our joint membership meeting and holiday celebration. Each club discussed business items and then shared a buffet dinner at the OK Corral. District Gov. Sue Bowman spoke to the clubs about the importance of nurturing new members. There was another presentation by Susan Youngberg and her Can-Do Canine, Bali. Youngberg told the group about the changes that Bali has made on her life, both physically and emotionally. Can-Do Canines is a Lions-sponsored project in which dogs are trained to live with and assist people with physically and emotional challenges.

FIREFIGHTING RETIREE The Jordaness Lions extend thanks and appreciation to firefighter Ken Lucas for his 33 years of active duty in the Jordan Fire Department.

BOWL FOR CHARITY This is not your average soup bowl! This is the Jordaness Lions bowling fundraiser! The date is Saturday, Jan. 14, with check-in at 2 p.m. at Louisville Lanes. The lanes are located at 3020 W. 133 St. in Shakopee. There are 144 spots available for bowlers, and pre-registration is required. Registration forms are available at Hometown, Riverland and Frandsen banks

WAIT FOR IT…. The tentative date for the Jordaness Lions fish dinner is March 16. Confirmation will be coming soon.

PROUD OF LION HEDY The Jordaness Lions have nominated Lion Hedy Joachim as their selection for Zone Lion of the Year. Joachim keeps our club young and is a powerful example of energy and dedication to service. The zone Lion of the year will be announced in the spring of 2012.

Let’s face it. The media constantly reminds us of the importance of a healthy and bright smile. Whether it be in the movies or magazines, nearly all the stars have a sparkling smile. How do they do that? Most stars have undergone a combination of tooth whitening and/or cosmetic bonding / porcelain crowns or veneers on the front teeth, usually at lighter shades than the average person may wish to obtain. Not only Hollywood stars are seeking such dental treatment these days. On a daily basis I am approached by patients on how to improve their smile. Some options available like those mentioned above include fixing overlapped and chipped front teeth, replacing wore out, leaky silver fillings with tooth-colored bonded fillings, brightening the smile with either in-office or at-home tooth whitening, and clear braces like Invisalign offered at my office. If you have suffered by feeling insecure with your smile, don’t hesitate to approach your dentist about cosmetic options. There are many options available from conservative and cost-effective to more extensive and life-changing. Your smile and health are in your own hands and you deserve to bring out your best. If you have a topic you’d like me to discuss, email me at: doctor@ jordandentalcare.com

Can-Do Canine visits Lions club Hats off to the many guests that attended the Jordaness Lions 22nd annual holiday show that was held on Nov. 19 at the OK Corral in St. Lawrence Township, near Jordan. The club is very appreciative of the many local business and private enterprises that contributed to this event. This generosity is instrumental in the success of this venture. The show featured models wearing hats of varying styles and stories, a delicious lunch, door prizes, raffle chances, a silent auction and entertainment by the Jordaness Lion Singers performing a special rendition of “My Favorite Things.” It was a wonderful afternoon and a great way to kick off the holiday season. Thanks also to the OK Corral and Mark Ballard.

Ray Lucas, a Minnesota Valley Electric Cooperative employee, was armed yesterday and sent to the MVEC substation near Montgomery. All substations are placed under 24-hour protection by order of the U.S. War Department. Edward Hanzel of New Prague was killed in Hawaii at Pearl Harbor. He was in the Navy. Lawrence Cihlar of New Prague, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Cihlar of St. Patrick, was killed at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii. He was stationed on the USS Arizona. All three Jordan churches prayed for a safe holiday season and for all those who were lost at Pearl Harbor and for those who can’t be home for Christmas with their families. The Jordan City Council met Monday to discuss the city truck and train accident that happened and how and when to replace the vehicle. No one was hurt. “A re-grand opening,” an ad in the Jordan Independent said, “of the Café Minnesota in Jordan. Completely remodeled. Ray Wagner, Herb Wagner.” First Bank of New Market and P.J. Thomas Store in New Market offer Christmas wishes via ads in the JI. Bells Place and Rupsy’s Tavern of Spring Lake have Christmas wishes in the JI.

Lions push students to write about service BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

The Jordaness and Jordan Lions co-sponsored an essay contest for which students were asked to write about some way they could help society, or what they felt it meant to serve. The Lions’ motto is “We Serve.” More than 150 students submitted essays for the annual contest, with the coordination of the Jordan High School English department. Cash awards amounted to $200. The top five winners this year were: first place, Carissa Lewis; second place, Emily Stocker; third place, Sarah Aldrich; fourth place, Katie Kreuser; and fifth place, Michelle Jablonsky. Other winners not pictured are: Jennifer Sorenson, sixth place; Abi Thorn, seventh place; Madalyn Schmidt, eighth place; Haley Kreuser, ninth place; and Ben Eicholz, 10th place. Honorable mention award winners include David Flynn, Jaylin Danasur, Logan Simonson, Connor Bulau and Daniel Gutzmer.

The top five essay winners this year were (from left): Katie Kreuser, fourth place; Michelle Jablonsky, fifth place; Carissa Lewis, first place; Sarah Aldrich, third place; and Emily Stocker, second place.

WINNING ESSAY Lewis’ essay is about trying to bring an end to sex trafficking. In a portion of her essay, Lewis writes: Among other serious problems that plague this world, sex trafficking is one

that I am very passionate about seeing a decline, and eventually, an end to. It is easy to think, “How could I even begin to help?” There are ways, however, to fight against this. The three that I have begun to do are becoming

informed about what is really going on and telling others about it to those in my sphere of influence, praying for the victims, and investing financially to ministries that want to abolish this form of slavery.
