Lingering recession is impacting city’s budget BY NANCY HUDDLESTON editor@savagepacer.com
T he li ngeri ng rec ession wi l l continue to have an impact on next year’s budget, warned City Administrator Barry Stock Monday night (July 11) during a work session of the Savage City Council. It is a l ready a nticipated t hat the 2012 budget will be negatively impacted by about $515,000. Those shortages are coming in the form of less transfers from the liquor fund
into the general fund to pay off the library bonds ($200,000) and other miscellaneous items ($175,000); an $ 80,000 increase in health and life insurance expenses; and $60,000 to pay for a 1 percent increase in union contracts. Even though the budgeting process is just starting, “the bottom line is we’re still short,” Stock stated. What’s more, City Council members have already indicated they do not want the levy to increase, so there will be little or no new revenue

coming in next year from property tax collections. “Although what I said to council sounded like a doomsday prediction, it was really just a quick and dirty review of the changes we anticipate between 2011 and 2012,” Stock said after the work session. In order to meet those challenges, Stock told the City Council that he’s looking at staffi ng levels. “We’re having department managers look at opportunities from the top down to see if staffi ng needs match
work flow needs. It might mean more staff in some areas and less staff in others,” he said. In terms of the liquor fund transfers, Stock is seriously considering the auditor’s recommendation to stop taking $200,000 a year from that fund to pay off the library bonds. The other $175,000 transfer into the general fund for miscellaneous unexpected expenses has already been suspended. But the library bonds still need to be paid until February 2018, so the
city will have to determine which fund shou ld b e t app e d to pay those. And as unexpected expenses come up, the city may have to dip into fund reserves instead of making Barry transfers out of the Stock liquor fund. “I’m not sure if we need to totally

PUTTING OUT THE LAST FIRE
Original project was six phases BY NANCY HUDDLESTON editor@savagepacer.com
Some residents of downtown Savage have been waiting over 10 years for the Hamilton District utility reconstruction project to reach their streets. So it seemed natural that when members of the Savage City Council promised to get back to residents in August about options to lock into an assessment rate that one resident asked for clarification with two words: “this year?” That comment resulted in laughter from both residents and City Council members Monday night (July 11), who acknowledge the schedule has not gone as planned when the project was proposed in the late 1990s. Original ly, the entire project was envisioned to take place in six phases in six year’s time. But those six phases have been split up over the years and even though the fi fth phase is planned next year, three more of the original phases remain on Monterey, Ottawa, Natchez, Kipling and Joppa avenues and 126th, 128th and 129th streets. Residents of the last three remaining phases are asking the city to develop a pre-assessment program
“Locking in the rate would eliminate raising assessment costs for homeowners regardless of the time required to complete the phases.” Kurt Schwie President, Hamilton District Association whereby homeowners that have not yet been assessed for infrastructure improvements can lock into the 2011 Phase V rate of $5,725 per lot. Participation would be voluntary and there would also be a provision that homeowners would waive their rights to appeal the assessments. “Locking in the rate would eliminate raising assessment costs for homeowners regardless of the time required to complete the phases,” wrote Kurt Schwie, president of the Hamilton District Association, in a letter to the City Council. “We believe

It appeared that John Lloyd from Lloyd’s Construction was putting out the last fire at the Quentin Avenue Fire Station in downtown on Thursday morning (July 11), but in reality he was keeping the dust down as the building was being demolished. The city took the station out of service last July when the new Dakota Avenue Fire Station was opened on the City Hall campus. The Quentin Avenue building was built in the mid 1960s and not only served as a fire station, but doubled as Savage City Hall. At the time, the city was one square mile with a population of 2,500 people. The city has no immediate plans to redevelop the site because the intersection of Quentin Avenue and Highway 13 will be reconstructed next year, and that project includes realigning 123rd Street on the north side of the old fire station property. See next week’s edition of the Pacer for a story about the building’s history.

Dose of Music founder Jason Hopp.
Local entrepreneur Jason Hopp has a lot of projects on his plate, but the one he’s the most passionate about is the one that hasn’t taken off quite yet: his music-based charity Dose of Music. Hopp started the nonprofit a year and a half ago, envisioning it as an organization that would cheer up sick, disadvantaged or people otherwise in need, through the joy of music. Think of it as Patch Adams with a guitar and amplifier. “I thought it’d be a nice charity to have where local
musicians could come together to play at hospitals or (senior) homes or anything like that,” said Hopp. “It could be karaoke, DJs, bands, whatever the event calls for.” Hopp said the charity will provide a wide selection of musical entertainment to children in hospitals, seniors in assisted living facilities and military troops returning home, as well as for charity fundraisers and disaster relief-type benefits. To help get the new charity off the ground, Hopp has organized a fundraiser for Friday, July 22 at Neisen’s

Next up: Q The Clique Local teen band plays at zoo, plans concerts for end of July BY AMY LYON alyon@swpub.com
In the last year, Q The Clique has graduated from being a high school garage band that played occasional concerts for school events to planning weekly rehearsals and competing in battle of the bands competitions. The group of Burnsville High School students even landed a gig at the FineLine Music Café in Minneapolis in June and played at the Minnesota Zoo last weekend. “The Fine Line was a big deal,” said lead guitarist Scott Laska, 16, of Savage. “It was awesome.” Awesome for the band was having its own dressing room, unlimited bottled water, a huge crowd and a chance to be on stage at a popular venue. The concert was a benefit for Sheila E and Lynn Mabry’s Elevate Hope Foundation, and was organized through Q The Clique keyboardist Max Fink’s father, “Doctor” Matt Fink, who was Prince’s keyboardist for 12 years. Most recently on June 8 and 9, Q the Clique played four 30-minute shows at the Minnesota Zoo during the opening weekend of the 3M Penguins of the African Coast exhibit. The zoo concerts also drew crowds. During one of their rehearsals, Q The Clique was surprised to find a gathering of more than 150 people listening to their sound check. Lead singer Erica VonBank, 16, Savage thanked the group and encouraged them to return for one of the “real” shows that afternoon. The zoo gig came about when VonBank’s uncle, a marketing director at the zoo, got wind of the zoo’s plan to have a local band perform
Online Watch the “Do the Waddle” music video on the Minnesota Zoo’s website at www.dothewaddle.com. Click on the music video link. the 1½ minute jingle the zoo had created called, “Do the Waddle,” for the opening of the exhibit. Q The Clique impressed zoo officials with their talent and energy, and were asked to compose a longer version of the song to incorporate with a music video. “Do the Waddle” can be found on the zoo’s website or on YouTube. “It was really fun creating the video,” said VonBank. “The zoo hired dancers called The Waddle Squad, and because it had been played on the radio and TV, a lot of people knew the song.”
PLAYING WITH THE BOYS Q The Clique band members include Fink, 15, of Savage on keyboard, Adrian Parenteau, 16, of Savage on bass guitar, VonBank as lead singer, Alex Najafalipour, 16, of Burnsville on drums and Laska on lead guitar. The four boys formed as a group slowly in seventh, eighth, and ninth grades, and played at school events and band shows. Another classmate from Savage served as lead singer for a short time and Laska showed off his vocal talents for a while, too. Still, a piece was missing. The band struggled to find its niche and to find a lead singer that fit with their band. Then, during a school talent show, VonBank blew the crowd away when she took first place as a soloist and the band of four boys took second place.
By the summer of 2010, VonBank joined the band as the lead singer and the name Q The Clique was founded. “There’s a click-track that keeps everyone on beat during recording,” said VonBank. “Q The Clique is a play on words with the letter Q and the cliques in high school.”
SCHOOL OF ROCK After VonBank joined the band, Q The Clique really seemed to gel. “I was relieved at this point to have a full band,” said Parenteau. The band performed in three Battle of the Bands competitions in Prior Lake, Eagan and Dakota County. They took second, first and fifth places, respectively. In the fall, the band signed up for a four-month program through the Burnsville School of Rock. The “Rock 101” course included an artist development program created by School of Rock Music Director Shane Baskerville. “They are very hard working musicians,” said Baskerville. “They’re very serious about making their band work and willing to try new things to go to the next level.” Fink and VonBank had written some songs of their own, “but working with Shane helped us improve them,” said VonBank. “They have the talent,” said Baskerville. “I was just there to help them smooth out the rough edges.” As for the creative writing process, Fink said, “It builds up and just pours out of me.” The band’s musical style is a combination of pop and soft rock. “We all have different styles of playing and we try to bring it all together,” said

Parenteau. After completing the School of Rock program, Q The Clique played concerts at The Garage youth center in Burnsville, Buck Hill Pavilion in Burnsville, Neisen’s Sports Bar and Grill in Savage, a few private parties, and a “Best of the Season” show for the School of Rock at Bogart’s in Apple Valley. They will be back at Bogart’s on July 30 and Nicollet Commons Park in Burnsville on July 31.
LOOKING AHEAD Q The Clique is finishing up recording on a few original and cover songs at Starvu Studios located in Fink’s home. They practice at least once a week in a decked-out entertainment room in the lower level of the Laska’s home.
Sometimes it’s hard to coordinate schedules with jobs, school activities and social lives, but they do their best. VonBank sings in her church choir, and is also on the dance team, in theater and in the school choir. Najafalipour works at Best Buy in Burnsville. Parenteau and Laska are on a baseball team. And Fink makes time to hang out with his friends and record his own music. All agree, too, that college is in their futures. “Getting signed to a label would be awesome, but it’s not likely we can make a living doing this,” said VonBank. “College is definitely gonna happen.” Laska agreed. “This will probably just be a high school thing, but we’ll see where it goes.” Laska’s parents, Doug and

e g a v Sa Business Review how it will impact appearance comes from advanced training and extensive experience performing cosmetic procedures. Dr. Zettler’s extensive training and experience help her create beautiful smiles by considering the patient’s coloring, lip line, eyes, gum tissue contouring, facial features, and other characteristics. Only then can a stunning smile be created with veneers, implants, Invisalign, crowns, and other advanced techniques. The goal is to create a smile that is beautiful, strong and natural. You can see Dr. Zettler’s work for yourself with before and after photos at: www.cherrywooddental.com.
State-of-the-Art
Cherrywood Dental care is a cosmetically oriented family practice and offers a full range of services for the entire family. This includes free cosmetic consultations to evaluate whether cosmetic dentistry could help achieve your goals, and one-hour new patient exams to ensure your concerns are fully addressed without feeling rushed.
Although this term is often overused and inaccurate, Cherrywood Dental Care truly is state-of-the-art. Our investment in technology bene¿ts patients in numerous ways. First, it is safer. For instance, digital x-rays reduce the radiation exposure of patients by up to 80%. Second, it is quicker. One example is the use of Cerec same-day crowns that can be made while you wait, rather than requiring multiple visits to the dental of¿ce. Cherrywood Dental Care also offers Invisalign, which straightens your teeth like braces but without metal appliances. In addition, Cherrywood Dental Care offers teeth whitening (both “take home” and the much quicker “in of¿ce”), metal-free ¿llings, and many other techniques to enhance your smile and keep you healthy. Dr. Zettler would be pleased to schedule a consultation to discuss which options are right for you.
Sedation Dentistry
Comfort
OUR FOCUS IS YOU Cherrywood Dental Care provides the very best in modern dentistry – from sedation dentistry to ensure your comfort, to cosmetic dentistry to create a dazzling smile. In all we do, our focus is you.
Dr. Zettler – With Honors Dr. Melissa Zettler graduated from St. Olaf College and the University of Minnesota School of Dentistry with honors, receiving several awards for clinical excellence. She was then chosen to complete a highly competitive postdoctoral residency program. After 15 years of dentistry – 12 since founding Cherrywood Dental Care – Dr. Zettler continues to take the best continuing education offered in the United States and travels regularly to the top training centers from California to Florida. All this training and experience translate into one thing: better patient care. It is no surprise that both Mpls.-St. Paul Magazine and Minnesota Monthly have repeatedly chosen Dr. Zettler as one of Minnesota’s Top Dentists.
Meeting Your Needs
Advancements in sedation allow even the most anxious patients to overcome years of needed dental work in just one or two visits. It starts with a simple consultation to determine the optimum level of sedation to accomplish your goals. Whether a patient required oral medication or full IV sedation administered by a licensed nurse anesthetist, we are able to provide a deeply relaxing and comfortable experience.
We know that many patients are anxious about their dental visits, and we are experienced in helping patients relax. So, in addition to our sedation services, we provide lap blankets, pillows, noise-cancelling headphones (which work remarkably well in removing the noise from dental instruments), DVDs, and sunglasses. Our goal is to make your visit as pleasant as possible.
Cherrywood Dental Care offers hours that are convenient for the busy family. Appointments are available Monday 7:30 a.m. – 4 p.m. Tuesday 7:30 a.m. – 6 p.m. Wednesday 7:30 a.m. – 3 p.m. Thursday 8 a.m. - 6 p.m. Friday 7:30 a.m. – 12 p.m.

Why are so many young kids wearing braces these days? Several readers have submitted questions regarding the optimal age for orthodontic treatment. The answer varies, depending on a number of factors. Below are answers to the Top 5 Questions Parent Ask About Orthodontic Treatment Timing. 1. At what age should my child be evaluated? The American Association of Orthodontists recommends that all kids have a checkup with an orthodontic specialist by age 7. 2. Are there early warning signs that my child may need orthodontic treatment? Crowded or crooked teeth, problems with biting or chewing, speech difficulties or facial imbalance are signs that your child should be evaluated by an orthodontic specialist. 3. What’s the most common age to begin treatment? Comprehensive orthodontics most often begins between the ages of 11 and 15. By this age most or all of the permanent teeth have erupted, and kids are growing rapidly. Orthodontists take advantage of this growth spurt for

efficient correction of misaligned teeth and bite problems. 4. Why do some kids go through treatment at an early age? Kids with specific orthodontic problems benefit from treatment at an early age (less than 10 years of age). Treating at a younger age allows the orthodontist to prevent or intercept more serious problems from occurring, and makes comprehensive treatment shorter, less complicated and easier on the child. 5. What if my child does not get the recommended early treatment? For most patients, orthodontics can be completed at a later age, but is more likely to involve extraction of permanent teeth to resolve crowding, and may require extractions or corrective jaw surgery to correct more serious bite problems. For more information on Early Orthodontic Treatment or to schedule a complimentary screening exam for your child, contact Dr. Trudy Bonvino at Cosmopolitan Orthodontics; 952-9330917 or visit cosmoortho.com

COMMUNITY VOICES
LETTERS FROM READERS STATE SHUTDOWN
Robling’s position shows inflexibility I read with interest Sen. Claire Robling’s opinion article in the Savage Pacer on July 9. The article was titled, “Governor’s flexibility needed to resolve budget impasse.” However, Sen. Robling really takes half of a full page of our local paper to cover up the inflexibility in her position. Boiled down to two sentences, this is my take on Sen. Robling’s position: “I refuse to raise either sales or income taxes which might affect rich Minnesotans, even though I will vote to hurt the poor, the middle class, seniors, the unemployed, our schools, our local governments, property owners and our state government. This is so, even though rich Minnesotan’s currently have a much lower Minnesota total tax rate than everyone else.” Unfortunately, Sen. Robling appears to follow the current Republican agenda of “drown government in the bathtub” so we can protect the rich and big business. Query: Are the rich and big business the most important constituency of Sen. Robling and like-minded Republican legislators? Why else take this stance? I am a fi scally-conservative former Republican who railed at the tax cutting which gutted the revenue of our federal and state governments during the last decade. These tax cuts are now a large part of the cause of our current state budget crisis, and are literally “drowning our state government in a bathtub.” If this “no tax” agenda of Sen. Robling and like-minded Republican legislators continues, it will continue to dismantle the structures that have made Minnesota a great state. Gov. Mark Dayton came a long way in trying to compromise, but the “no tax” inflexibility of Sen. Robling and her like-minded legislators did not allow a budget deal. Then Sen. Robling has the audacity to blame the problems of the shutdown on Gov. Dayton. I realize Sen. Robling has her “no tax” audience to listen to and rich and big business to protect, but there are many of us that know that additional revenue, especially in times of great budget shortfalls, is as important for a successful state government as it is for a successful business. So Sen. Robling, please get back to work, fi nd a reasonable compromise and get our state working again.

FINGER POINTING
Robling’s editorial reads like party paper I am writing in response to Claire Robling’s commentary in the July 9 edition of the Savage Pacer. While I agree with some of her remarks, particularly those regarding potential options to increase revenue outside of tax increases, I am disappointed with the general tone of her message; it read like a party position paper. Included in her comments: “It is the belief of many of my colleagues, and I agree, that Gov. Dayton and DFL legislators planned to make this shutdown as painful as possible in order to force the Republican majority to his position quicker. That strategy not only puts pressure on legislators but it negatively affects thousands of others who are caught in our dispute, such as Canterbury Park, which is unfairly shuttered because of this shutdown. I think that’s shameful.” Well Claire, I think that it’s shameful for you to make such a comment. That insinuation brings party politics into play in a dreadful way by dangling the potential loss of Canterbury Park as example of the harm being done by the DFL. I don’t give a darn about either the DFL or the Republican Party at the moment other than that I am sick of “politicians” from both parties bickering and taking a hard party line at our expense. Canterbury Park and the many jobs hanging in the balance are within your constituency and for you to
engage in fi nger pointing while real wages, and likely jobs, are being lost is a real shame. In regard to: “No one will be completely happy, but with my 15 years of experience in politics, I know that’s what it takes to get a deal, and for the sake of the people in Minnesota, a deal must be made.” You’ve said the words, now please back them up and do it quickly before this becomes an even bigger catastrophe.

Whether you participated on a team, volunteered or made a donation, we really appreciate your commitment to Relay and to the fight against cancer. On July 8, 46 teams and almost 500 participants gathered at the Shakopee Junior High School to raise funds for the American Cancer Society. To date our Relay raised more than $155,000 for patient services, education, research and advocacy. Together we have raised over $1.7 million in the past 14 years here in Scott County. We also were honored this year to host the Cancer Prevention Study 3 enrollment. Scott County and surrounding community members gave of their time to participate in this once in a lifetime opportunity to fi nd a cure for cancer, and we had 264 people enroll in the study! We c a me toget her a s fa mi ly, friends, neighbors and co-workers to “Celebrate, Remember and Fight Back.” We believe we accomplished that. We extend an invitation to all to come back again next year. Let’s keep up the great work - we are making a difference in the fight against cancer.

I fi rst connected with her when a group of us were forming Foundation 191, the Burnsville-Eagan-Savage education foundation. She was helpful and supportive of our mission from the start. She saw to it that news of our Foundation and events was published in the Pacer so that it reached those to whom it mattered most in the school district. When we submitted news of Foundation 191 she published it. She recognized that a successful organization needs the support of the community and she helped foster the credibility and spirit of our organization. This contributed to the growth of Foundation 191 for the benefit of thousands of students in the district. In my role as a community columnist, I saw how she sent article reminders to authors and thank yous when the articles were submitted. She made arrangements for covering when an author needed to change their submission schedule without fanfare. She continued to do so despite facing personal challenges with her sister’s cancer and the murder of former Pacer reporter Ruth Anne Maddox. When I would bump into her in the community she was always friendly and genuinely interested in people. The news of the community continued to reach us each week and she proved that you can be a pro while being a friend. For this, we are all better off. Thanks, Nancy, for a job well done. Good luck.

Get out of fantasy land to find solutions to state shutdown I often travel for business, spending endless hours in generic hotel rooms channel surfing. I found a movie from the 80s called “Back to School,” starring Rodney Dangerfield as Thornton Melon. For those who may not be familiar with this cinematic masterpiece, the basic plot revolves around a successful businessman, who never completed college, going back to school to encourage his son to finish. The one scene that stuck with me happened during the first day of a business class. The well-educated professor describes the premise of their assignment and explains that instead of just learning theories, they will learn what the real world is like. The professor tells the students that they will study all of the costs involved in building a factory, including building, architect fees and land service. He is interrupted by Mr. Melon who goes on about how the calculations are wrong and how the professor forgot to include the money that needed to go to politicians for zoning, bribes for the union boss, and government inspectors – basically all the items needed in the real world. While all of the other students are furiously taking notes, the “educated” professor tells Mr. Melon that they will not be studying that kind of business world in his class. The scene ends when he asks the class where they should build the plant, to which Mr. Melon answers, “how about Fantasy Land.” Besides being a funny scene, the movie got me thinking that a lot of the problems we currently face in Minnesota are also the struggles we see in the classroom – people

who think they know how to do something based on a theory versus people who have actually done it. The real world is rarely as simple or clean as a classroom theory. In politics, it seems that we are more interested in speakers than leaders. This was not an issue when things were good, and there was no crisis or no real need for leadership, and the staff could get the real work done. But when you have a problem, you need leadership. Take our current budget crisis. While it is possible the shutdown could end soon, I do not think it will. Our current governor is just like the professor – he has a lot of knowledge but no experience. I looked back at our governor’s resume. His business knowledge shows that he is the heir of someone who was a good businessman. Financial experience: he knows how to make withdrawals from his tax-sheltered trust fund. Governing experience: before being governor, he was most famous for being the only senator to shut down his office in fear. So it should be no surprise that when faced with another crisis he goes
back to that template. When the going gets tough, shut it down. But now what? As a famous girls’ camp signs says, “Being a leader is like being a lady, if you have to tell someone you are, you aren’t.” A leader leads, he doesn’t ask someone else to do his job for him. Gov. Mark Dayton seems to call for a mediator every few weeks. It is not a mediator’s job to find a solution. It is his. But for someone who has been a trust-fund baby his whole life, I can see how he would not be equipped to do his own work. Perhaps that is why he declared his housekeeper and personal chef essential staff. He doesn’t seem to want to do his own work as governor, so how can anyone expect him to feed or clean up after himself ? That is not to say that democrats are alone in finding people with good theories but no experience. The presidential race seems to bring out the best and the worst. Hopefully we have learned from the last election and will not elect a candidate based purely on personality, slogans and oratory ability. Instead we will look for someone who has experience. But it had better be successful experience, not just experience kicking the can down the road – and, yes, I am talking about Minnesota’s favorite daughter and son. Hopefully the adults will figure a way out of this. Entire industries don’t disappear in theory. Or maybe this is all fantasy land.

VIEW FROM THE BENCH
What you should know about courts For many people court is where traffic tickets are paid, criminals are prosecuted, divorces are processed and Judge Judy presides. In other words, a place to be avoided. It is not surprising that few people think about the constitutional responsibilities courts have, the critical services they provide to the people of Minnesota, or the important role they have in preserving public safety, economic stability, individual freedom and personal security. Courts are involved in more than just traffic tickets and criminal prosecution. While holding criminals accountable for their conduct and collecting fines and fees are important aspects of what courts do (last year courts processed over 193,000 criminal matters and collected almost $200 million that was paid out to cities, counties and the state), these are far from the only services provided. The courts in Minnesota hear cases that involve people who need help at critical times in their lives involving some of the most important matters in their lives. If you are not directly involved with the courts, it is almost certain that you have a friend, relative or neighbor who is. Three examples demonstrate the variety and urgency of the cases heard in courtrooms throughout Minnesota. I An elderly man who lost a leg in an accident was unable to obtain recommended medical treatment without court intervention because the two companies that insured him could not agree which was responsible for payment of the expenses. I A woman came to court for an order for protection after finding her husband’s journal that described his detailed plans and preparations to kill her and their children. I A pre-teen girl involved in a child protection proceeding

because of the physical and emotional abuse inflicted by her mother wrote a letter to the judge describing the beatings, explaining that the whipping with the extension cord “hurt the most” and ended her letter by pleading: “HELP ME PLEASE.” The court’s job is to make sure that these important matters are handled in a timely and responsible manner. Each year over 1.6 million cases are filed with the courts seeking justice. By discharging the Judicial Branch’s constitutional obligation, the courts protect the freedom, security, family and property of individuals, while supporting and promoting society’s interest in public safety, economic stability and social order. In recent years the Judicial Branch has embraced technology to create efficiencies for the courts and for other justice system agencies so these important matters can be processed and heard in a reasonable time. The electronic filing of documents and the availability of court documents, calendars and other court-related information over the Internet have improved access and reduced costs associated with court proceedings. The expanded use of interactive video for court hearings, the development of remote interpreter services, and the

creation of web-based staff training have reduced expenses so the courts can continue to provide meaningful and timely court proceedings. The Judicial Branch Strategic Plan, first adopted over a decade ago, recognizes the need for the courts to do a better job at less cost, to be more efficient and more effective. The courts have worked with other justice system agencies to improve the effectiveness of the services they provide. Problem-solving courts have been created to address the mental health, alcohol and substance abuse issues that frequently drive criminal behavior and contribute to family dysfunction. Courts throughout Minnesota have implemented new approaches to the often difficult process of getting a divorce. Early court intervention in these matters has reduced the time, conflict and cost frequently associated with these proceedings. To assist the increasing number of people who cannot afford to hire an attorney or choose to represent themselves in court proceedings, forms and informational brochures have been revised, assistance centers have been created in several courthouses, and a Self Help website has been developed. These efforts go beyond the efficient disposition of cases and strive for better outcomes and a more satisfactory process. Despite the challenges presented by an increasing demand for court services and multiple funding reductions, the people of Minnesota continue to receive high quality services from their courts.

CHIROPRACTIC AND ATHLETES Do chiropractors work with sports injuries? Chiropractic is a great avenue for athletes, both on a preventative basis and for acute rehabilitation. Every team in Major League Baseball, the NFL, the NHL, and the NBA has chiropractors on staff. Both Lance Armstrong and Tiger Dr. Watkins Woods have personal chiropractors that go on tour with them. It makes much more sense to ďŹ x a physical injury or ailment by a physical treatment (chiropractic). Using a chemical treatment (medication) for a physical problem just masks the symptoms. For example, a person with neck injury caused by a physical force could not expect to ďŹ x their neck problem by taking a drug that goes into their stomach. Our ofďŹ ce sees many athletes with acute injuries. We also see a number of athletes with repetitive stress injuries. Some people are surprised to learn that chiropractors adjust more than the spine. We work with shoulders, wrists, knees, ankles, and feet as well. Chiropractic is an important part of getting an athlete’s body back to its optimal performance level. *e-mail your questions to: staff@watkinsfamilychiropractic.com

PUTTING DOWN ROOTS
Is there a ‘simple’ gardening project? I began a column in 1995 called, “I’ve got poison ivy. Again.� Well, it’s 16 years later and I have poison ivy. Again. I know what you’re thinking – “Wow, you must really be clever to have avoided poison ivy all these years.� Or maybe that’s not what you’re thinking at all. Yes, I know very well how to avoid poison ivy, but I thought I was being careful. It was right there amongst the Virginia creeper vine, wild raspberry and assorted annual weeds that I was trying to remove to make a proper planting bed in the shade for hostas. My practice with woody plants is to cut the stems off at ground level and apply a drop or two of woody brush killer to the stem so the woody plant won’t resprout. Lately, I’ve been giving the same treatment to poison ivy. Wearing gloves, I carefully snip the viny stems and apply a few drops of chemical. Six days after I was being very careful, my inside forearms broke out in poison ivy blisters. A few of you may recall my poison ivy remedy from that 1995 column – hold the blistered body part under very hot water and the itch will go away for a couple of hours. That remedy still works, but you’d think I could have avoided the experience altogether. Any gardener who tries to clear woody plants out of a wooded space can attest to what a time-consuming and labor-intensive job it is. The top few inches of soil are a tangle of roots just waiting for a combination of sunlight and moisture to send forth vigorous new growth. Often the cleared space has to be patrolled for years for – at least in my yard – the reappearance of

plum trees, gray dogwood, wild raspberries, poison ivy, Virginia creeper, buckthorn and a host of other uninvited plants. It’s quite rewarding, however, to clear a wooded space and watch as spreading hostas, heucheras, pulmonaria, ligularia, filipendula and other shadeloving plants get established and fill in, especially when the space includes walking paths to admire the new plantings up close. One complication with a project like this is that it is never simple. One thing leads to another. Or, one thing requires about 10 other things to take place, usually in a precise sequence, to make it all work. For example, if one of the woody plants I want to clear out is a desirable plant, like red-twig dogwood or highbush cranberry, I can’t just saw off the stems and apply brush killer. That would be too cruel. Dogwood and cranberry bushes can’t just be destroyed and cast aside. So, I dig them out and figure out where on my property they can be replanted. I have to dig those holes and carefully re-plant the dogwood and cranberry in their new spaces. Then the soil from those new holes needs to be returned to the removal site. Oh, that’s right, I better water the moved shrubs or
they’ll never take hold in their new spaces. Once the hostas are dug up from somewhere else and divided into three or four clumps, then planted in the cleared spaces, I’ve got those old hosta holes to refill. Finally, I apply mulch around all the new plantings and the filled holes. Generally after a day or two of working on this type of project, it occurs to me that the new cleared space could use more plants than I have available from overcrowded gardens and I contemplate whether I should head to the garden center for some new purchases, or maybe call up a friend and ask if they have any hostas or heucheras that need to be divided. And so the life of a gardener goes, week to week, season to season, year after
year. Non-gardening friends look on from a distance in a state of puzzlement, wondering why we don’t spend our time golfing or going to baseball games or sipping tea and reading a book in the shade. I don’t have a good answer for them, except that it may have something to do with a quote I read recently: “There can be no other occupation like gardening, in which, if you were to creep up behind someone at their work, you would find them smiling.� (Master Gardener Cliff Johnson is a Carver resident.

this would be in the best interest of both the city of Savage and the homeowners within the Hamilton District.”
COUNCIL DISCUSSION Councilwoman Christine Kelly said she sympathized with the plight of homeowners in the area, but she also asked: “Why is this different?” “To me, I have to say to the rest of the community why they don’t get to do this too,” she said. City Administrator Barry Stock said the Hamilton District reconstruction project is in a defi ned area and unlike any other in the community. All of the streets were built in the 1950s and all utilities need to be replaced – to include streets, curb and gutter, storm

In addition to the live music, there will be games, prizes and a $200 cash give-away. The event is open to all ages before 10 p.m. but will be 21-plus after that time.

sewer, sanitary sewer and water main. M ay o r J a n e t W i l l i a m s agreed, saying: “There are no other roads in our community like this.” Councilwoman Jane Victorey voiced a concern about fairness, given that the preassessment agreement rate would be applied to everyone in the last three phases and the phases would not be completed at the same time. It would be unfair that a homeowner in the fi rst phase would pay the same rate as a homeowner in the third phase, she reasoned, and suggested an inflation rate be built into the pre-assessment formula. Schwie and other residents at the meeting said that’s what’s being done now – the assessment rate is being adjusted for inflation every time a new phase is started. Over the years, assessment
rates have been $4,000 for Phase I (2000), $4,250 for Phase II (2001), $4,500 for Phase III (2002), $5,500 for Phase IV (2009) and $5,725 for Phase V (2011). Resident Paul Pivec said assessment rates are increasing by $250 a year and answered Victorey’s concern about fairness by asking if the delays experienced in the project to date are fair to the residents in the last three phases. “We’d like to lock in, just like the church did,” he said. In 2002, St. John the Baptist Church appealed its assessments and during negotiations, it reached a settlement agreement with the city to lock into the Phase II rate of $4,240 per lot. But Kelly said that agreement was different as it was a product of legal negotiations; whereby the residents’ request for a pre-assessment agreement is not. “It’s not fair to compare
this to St. John’s, as this is an entirely different situation,” she said. Councilman Gene Abbott said entering pre-assessment agreements with residents of the last three phases is “the right thing to do.” “This project has taken longer than planned and the agreement will give closure for some residents,” he said. But Victorey continued to raise concerns about fairness, insisting that some kind of rate of inflation be included in the assessment formula. “I agree with Gene and I don’t agree with Jane,” Councilman Al McColl said, “We’re talking about fairness and to some degree there’s been some unfairness to downtown residents with this project. It has taken too long. What they are asking for is not outside the realm of possibility.” Williams said the city must
look at the circumstances of each situation and suggested that the delays in the project are starting to degrade the entire downtown area. Public Works Director John Powell said his staff is working to prepare a schedule to fi nish the last three phases and that will be completed by the end of this year. “If we know what are the next three phases and what work needs to be done, then we can plan,” he said. Abbott asked if the three phases could be done all at once, but Powell didn’t advise it. “There’s too much risk,” he said, citing the magnitude of the work and that the city also needs to give private utility companies time to move their services during construction. But, he noted, three phases could be done in two years’ time as opposed to doing them one at a time. “What about Lynn Avenue?”
asked Williams. “Lynn goes with the bridge,” Powell answered in reference to replacement of the old railroad bridge. City staff will come back at the August work session to present the City Council with several pre-assessment agreement options to discuss in further detail.
(although technically the $5 is a suggested donation and not required to get a ticket). “I had to get creative, so to raise money I’ve got some bean bag games; I’ve got a golf game that I’m making,” said Hopp. As prizes, Hopp will be giving away blow-up guitars, necklaces, kazoos with the charity’s logo on them and other fun trinkets. “It’s just silly things like that so hopefully I can make a buck here or there.” For Hopp, Neisen’s was an easy choice for the venue given the bar’s large stage and reception area in the back, As well, Hopp has connections to the area because his father is former Savage Mayor Rod
Hopp. It also didn’t hurt that Hopp bartends at Neisen’s on weekends. “We were really happy to do it,” said Neisen’s owner Dan Neisen, “and it gets kind of light in the summer (as far as events go), so it really kind of worked out.”
illness got worse, Hopp and his friend planned to visit her in the hospital so they could play guitar and sing to her and the other children. Unfortunately, Rachel passed away in June of 2007, before Hopp had the chance to visit her. She was 7 years old. “She really was the inspiration” to start the charity, said Hopp. Using that inspiration, Hopp decided to honor her memory by following up on his idea of using music to brighten the lives of those struggling. Hopp officially founded Dose of Music in October of 2009.
While Hopp is optimistic about the future of the charity, he’s quick to acknowledge that starting a nonprofit hasn’t been an easy process so far. “I’m still in the early stages, and I’m a one man show right
now,” he said. Hopp has already held a couple of fundraisers, including a kick-off event at Neisen’s in February 2010, to help keep the charity afloat. “I’ve basically just been trying to recoup some of the money I’ve already lost,” Hopp said laughing. Among the early struggles is his bid to become a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, which is needed so that donors can write off their donations for tax purposes. “To play with the big boys, you have to become a 501(c) (3),” said Hopp. “But it’s an expensive process, and I’m funding it all on my own right now.” Hopp said he’s consulted with attorneys, filed the paperwork, and also put together a board of directors, which is required to be a 501(c) (3), so that it’s only a matter of time before his request is
approved. He has also struggled to gather a stable of musicians willing to partner with his organization. Although Hopp said he “plays a little guitar,” he said he’s not exactly Jimmy Page when it comes to the instrument. “I would never get paid to play, I’d probably get paid not to play,” Hopp joked. Hopp said the next step will be finding those musicians willing to donate their time for the cause. “I meet tons of (musicians) working here at Neisen’s,” said Hopp, “so hopefully now that I’ve got all the (legal) stuff done, I’ll be able to” get musicians to come aboard. In spite of the charity’s early difficulties, Hopp said it’s something he strongly believes in and he is confident it will succeed. “It’s taken a little longer than I expected,” admitted Hopp, “but I know it’s going to work out.”
tions for the liquor fund are already better than expected due to a $ 60,000 savings in personnel expenses. That savings was realized when the city eliminated several assistant liquor store manager positions. Currently, the city is evaluati ng its mu nicipa l liquor operations and Stock expects that study will result in more cost-saving measures before the end of the year. The city runs two liquor stores – Mar-
ketplace Liquor and Dan Patch Liquor. In terms of the other aspects of the budget, Stock said he’s unsure if the state shutdown will impact his ability to present a complete budget picture to the City Council during its two budget work sessions in August. That’s because the city needs certain numbers from the state to fill in the projected revenues side of the 2012 budget ledger. “We can set the levy, but
based on what?” Stock asked. “Yes, it will be easier for us because we’re projecting no increase to our levy, but we still need the data.” The city must approve a preliminary levy and budget i n September. Once t hat ’s done, city staff will continue to refine the 2012 budget, which is traditionally approved in December after a public taxation hearing where residents are given an opportunity to weigh in on the budget.

The smart way to go from renting to owning
T
he housing market continues to struggle. From a seller’s perspective, that makes life a lot harder. But for a buyer, the current market can mean a wider world of options and opportunities. For those who want to become owners rather than renters, it’s vitally important to make smart decisions—as the markets have shown. Many factors contribute to the real estate market’s current sluggishness, and one of them is the fact that lenders are reluctant to give loans to homebuyers. After the housing market crisis, it’s not surprising that they would be more demanding in their lending practices, but for those eager to buy, this current lending climate means that you need to present a pristine financial profi le. There is no limit to the amount of real estate browsing you can do — either in the newspaper or online — but before you get serious about purchasing a
home, take these tips into consideration.
Pay down your debt. Before you even apply for a mortgage, reduce your debt load. The smaller it is, the better for your debt-to-income ratio, which lenders use to determine how much they’ll allow you to borrow. Items like car loans, child support and alimony, credit card bills and student loans are all factors that the lender will consider. Paying down debt can have the added benefit of improving your credit, as well. Check up on your credit. Having good credit is another essential element in smart home buying: it can affect how lenders view you, and the terms of your mortgage. The better shape your credit is in, the better your potential to get the mortgage of your dreams. Every year, you’re entitled to a free credit report from one of the three major reporting agencies, like Equi-
fax. Use it as a starting point that will give you an idea of your overall credit picture. Look for areas that can be improved upon and track your progress by checking your credit again after you’ve put in some work to bring it up.
Make the biggest down payment possible. The era of zero-down is over, and for good reason. A down payment, and a sizeable one, can help ease the strain of a mortgage in coming years. A minimum of 20 percent down is a good idea, and if you can do more than that, so much the better. If you don’t think you can afford a down payment of 20 percent or more on a house you’re considering, it might be time to shop around for a less expensive home that is more budget friendly.
Be an informed buyer. There is a seemingly endless list of things to know about buying a home, and the faster you want to buy, the faster you’ll need to learn it all. One of the best
things you can do is take a first-time homebuyer class offered by a reputable organization; some cities even offer them for free. Be sure you know the ins and outs of items like closing costs, ad-
justable rate versus fi xed rate mortgages, how your credit report affects mortgage rates and the documentation you’ll need to get a mortgage. The more you know, the better equipped you’ll be to make
smart decisions that will make you a happy homeowner for years to come. Source: ARA Content

SPIRITUAL REFLECTIONS
Come into the quiet and let your soul guide you
214312
Be Still and Know That I Am God Be still and know that I am God. Be still and know that I am Be still and know that I Be still and know that Be still and know Be still and Be still Be If someone were to ask me how to live closer to himself and closer to God, it would be in the above words from the Bible. I have often used the words, written as they are, as a mediation to bring people into their heart and soul, the place of their divine essence. If you would like to use this as a prayer or mediation, you can do that by closing your eyes, breathing deeply and allowing your body to relax. In our mind, we are often living in either the past or in the future and this is one way to bring you into the present moment. Say the first line and sit quietly with your eyes closed, breathing deeply. Repeat the process until you come to the end of the words and just sit with whatever comes up for you. You might find this hard to do and that is understandable. The world we live in is based in doing and not in being. We often find ourselves moving from thing to thing so quickly that we do not have time to contemplate the beauty and meaning. Years ago, a wise Native American elder gave me this piece of wisdom: “If you do nothing else each day, face east – the place of creation. In the Native American culture, this direction acknowledges the divine partnership with your creator. As you face this direction, thank your creator for your essence that allows you to create each day from the core of your being.” These words often come to mind each morning as I sit on my deck, facing east, allowing God to work in me and through me. It is imperative that we find time to come into the quiet of our

being to listen to the whispers of our soul that are dying to be heard. That becomes very hard to do when we are moving at lightening speed through life in our effort to be better, be smarter and be more lovable. It seems to me we have forgotten that we are perfect as we are. Even with our imperfections, we are already whole. Even if we know the truth of that statement, we often don’t think about it or put it into our daily thoughts until the time when life brings us to our knees, then we are certain we are broken. And that is the point: even in what seems to be our brokenness we are, in the eyes of the Lord, already whole. All of us have had an experience that has literally or figuratively brought us to our knees. Often these situations leave us questioning what the purpose might be of what has happened. Often that brings us to a place where we sit in judgment of ourselves and/or God’s hand in what has happened. I believe it is necessary to create a shift that will move us closer to ourselves and to God. When we can learn to “be with” something in a gentle and compassionate way it can give way to transformation. In this place of not fighting what is, we find it is our brokenness that heals us and restores us. I think about Nancy Huddleston, editor of this paper. As you know she is in her last weeks as being the editor of this paper. I was
struck by her words to me when she announced that she would be leaving the paper. She said, “It’s just time for me – something that has hit me in the last few months after the death of my sister. I have now lost the two strongest women in my life to cancer – my mother 20 years ago and now my sister. Family deaths get you thinking about a lot of things, so I’ve decided to make a change.” It brought tears to my eyes so many months ago when I read that. The tears were two-fold: one because she does a fabulous job as editor, but more so because she had the courage to let her grief transform and change her life. I started this article with, “Be Still and Know That I am God,” and I challenge all of us to live these words to the best of our ability. I believe it is time to stop doing and come into the silence of our being. As my Native American friend would say, this brings us into the communion with that which is larger than ourselves. In this place we know who we are and can open to hear the voice of God speaking to us. In this quiet we can act with courage and move ourselves into alignment with our greater purpose. Nancy, I don’t know what is next for you, but I do know you have acted with courage and many blessings as you move into the next part of the journey. Thank you for all you have done, but most importantly, for showing us how to act with courage. Blessings to you!

A change in name but not in philosophy St. James Lutheran transitions to an early education center BY ALEX HALL ahall@swpub.com
It’s been a busy few months for Kim Johnson and Jeni Irwin, co-directors of St. James Lutheran Early Education Center in Burnsville. “There’s been a lot of long nights (spent) painting,” said Irwin. That’s because the center, previously St. James Child Care Center, is transitioning to a more education-focused approach to child care with an emphasis on Christian teachings and values. “We always had a strong educational focus,” said Johnson, “and by changing the name, we felt it better represented the programs that were already being offered.” But the transition is about much more than a name change. The programs themselves are changing, the center has moved to a different wing of the church and new summer programs are being offered. “The center opened in 1972, and a lot has changed in the preschool and early education world since then,” said Johnson, “so it was just the time to take a good look at ourselves and how we can better serve the community.” One of the most important aspects of the transition is that the center is now part of St. James Lutheran Church’s ministry. When the St. James Child Care Center opened in 1972, the church allowed the center to use its space. But while the two shared the same name and building, they were technically two separate entities. Now, with the transition, the center is officially part of the church’s ministry, which Irwin said will help them infuse even more Christian teachings into their
curriculum. For example, the students will now be able to use the church’s library, its computer lab, a mini-theater room with stadium seating and have weekly worship sessions with Rev. Walt Lichtenberger in the sanctuary. “The kids are absolutely loving it,” said Irwin. “They really look forward to worship with Pastor Walt every week.” Irwin and Johnson describe the curriculum as “Christcentered,” and each week Johnson leads the students in “Jesus Time,” where they participate in different activities such as making crafts related to scripture or acting out scenes from the Bible. But the preschool’s curriculum also includes language and literacy development, creativity and arts programs, cognitive development, physical and motor development as well as social and emotional development. “At this stage, it’s all about learning, but they learn by playing and having fun and having hands-on activities,” said Johnson. “Most of the time they don’t even know they’re learning,” Irwin said with a laugh. “We’re kind of sneaking it in there.” And while the curriculum is “Christ-centered,” the school offers open enrollment, meaning parents don’t have to be a member of the church for their child to join.
MAKING THE TRANSITION The plan to switch from a child care to an early education center came in December from a restructuring task force consisting of parents, grandparents and church members. After much discussion and input from parents, the task
force decided to make the switch and start implementing the changes in late February. Irwin said they finalized the program list in April, moved into their new space in May and started their new summer programs in June. “We’ve done a lot in a short amount of time,” said Johnson. As part of the transition, Johnson and Irwin restructured a lot of the programs. The preschool program, which is available as a two, three, or five daya-week program during the school year, has now been re-named “Power Pre” and lasts for four hours, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. instead of the previous 2½ hour program they had offered. Irwin said the longer program gives them a chance to fit more educational activities into the day without feeling rushed. “Now there’s a lot more time for fun, creative projects, craft projects, experiments,” said Johnson. “There’s just more time to engage them and get them excited about learning.” Before the transition, Irwin and Johnson said they surveyed and met with parents to get their input. The overwhelming response: “We like things the way they are.” But while a majority of parents said they didn’t want much to change, many said they did want more Christiancentered teaching included in the programs, so Johnson and Irwin made sure to include more of that in their new curriculum. Johnson and Irwin said that while parents liked things the way they were before, they already seem to appreciate the changes, especially the idea of a longer preschool program. “There is so much excitement about the 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. preschool schedule,”

Johnson said she remembers how inconvenient the 2½ hour program could be for a parent. “I used to drop them off (at preschool) and would have a list of errands to complete, but I could never get everything done,” said Johnson.
OTHER NEW OFFERINGS The center is also offering week-long themed-learning summer camps for families who don’t necessarily want to sign up for a full summer
of child care. Some of the programs include “Mad Science!” “How Will my Garden Grow?” “Earthly Natural Wonders” and “Creepy Crawlies!” While the Power Pre and summer camps are the two main programs the center offers, there is also extendedand full-day child care for parents who need it, so the center is open from 6:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday. Another aspect of the center that Johnson is excited about is what she hopes will
be monthly service projects involving the children. Some of the projects will be done in conjunction with the church, said Johnson, while others will be projects the kids can do in their own communities. Last spring, students participated in “God’s Global Barnyard,” a project where they donated money into little “barn banks” and sent the money to an impoverished country so people could buy animals for their farm. They have also done collections for the Dakota County food shelf.
PRIOR LAKE-SAVAGE AREA SCHOOLS
John Dahl is new assistant principal at Twin Oaks Middle School BY MERYN FLUKER mfluker@swpub.com
John Dahl has been hired as the new assistant principal at Twin Oaks Middle School. Dahl’s hiring is the last step in an administrative shuff le that began in April when former Jeffers Pond Elementary School Principal Cindy Solberg
announced her retirement. On June 1, the Prior Lake-Savage Area School Board approved hiring of Karoline Warner to fill Solberg’s position. That move left a hole in the administrative staff at Twin Oaks Middle School, where Warner had served as assistant principal for five years. Dahl began work Tuesday
(July 12) and met with Warner that morning to discuss the transition. The district convened a hiring committee to review applications from approximately 90 people who applied for the position. Six were selected for interviews before the committee recommended Dahl. Current Twin Oaks Middle
School Principal Dan Edwards was a member of the interview team and praised Dahl’s diversity of career experiences at different levels. “We’re defi nitely excited to bring his experience here to the district,” Edwards said. Dahl comes to District 719 from Eastern Carver County Schools, where he spent the last
year as the dean of students at Chaska Middle School East. Dahl also has two school years’ experience as a lead teacher on special assignment at the district’s Jonathan Elementary School. And he has held a variety of positions in the Edina School District. “I’m just very excited to be here,” Dahl said. “I’m look-
i n g for wa r d to a great successfu l yea r at Twin Oaks, working with the students, the staff, Mr. Edwards and everyone else here in Prior Lake.”

The Savage Police Department has been awarded a grant from the Enforcing Underage Drinking Laws program to conduct alcohol compliance checks on all licensed retailers. In a compliance check, a law enforcement officer works with an underage youth who attempts to purchase alcohol from a bar, restaurant, liquor store, grocery store or other licensed outlet. If the clerk/ server asks for identification and refuses the sale, the business passes the compliance check; whereas if the clerk/ server completes the sale, the outlet has illegally sold alcohol and fails the check. “Limiting the supply of alcohol that is accessible by underage youth is one important tool in a comprehensive program of deterring underage drinking. Illegal alcohol use by underage persons contributes to crime, car crashes, injuries,
and deaths. Having compliance checks and alcohol awareness training in place, are proven tools for reducing youth access to alcohol,” stated Police Chief Rodney Seurer. In the next few months, officers will conduct a round of compliance checks. A second round of checks will be conducted after the first of the year. Anyone caught selling to an underage buyer will be referred to the Scott Attorney’s Office for criminal prosecution. In addition, the owner of the alcohol license will face civil prosecution. The police department works with retailers to help them abide by the law by playing host to free trainings for local and neighboring businesses. Participants are provided tools to help comply with state and city laws and are informed of what potential penalties for serving or providing alcohol
to a minor. The Savage Police Department also encourages businesses to be “Best Practices” pa r ticipa nts, mea ni ng t he licensee and 75 percent of its employees and managers are certified in the city’s Server Awareness Program. The city ordinance provides the potential for lower penalties for those businesses that participate in this program and therefore insures mandatory training of their employees. Penalties for selling to a minor can include fines and license suspensions, and can potentially lead to license revocation. A server who sells to someone under 21 can be charged with a gross misdemeanor offense.

injuries to St. Francis Medical Center. July 10 A commercial fire alarm was sounding at 5:21 a.m. at the O’Connell Road fire station in the 14300 block of O’Connell Road.

At 3:24 p.m. firefighters were dispatched to a one-vehicle rollover crash with injuries at Vernon Avenue and

JMS Custom Homes cleared the last planning hurdle when the Savage City Council gave fi nal plat approval last week for 19 more lots in Trace Water, a single-family subdivision tucked between the Credit River and Murphy-Hanrehan Park Reserve. The lots are part of the second phase of a four-phase development located in south Savage, near Hanrehan Lake Bou levard and Edgewater Drive. With the City Council’s approval, Trace Water announced that it is taking riverview home site reservations for the second addition. Jeffrey Schoenwetter, CEO of JMS Custom Homes, said he anticipates that construction could begin as early as this fall with move-ins as early as next April. Home packages start at around $400,000. “We’re thrilled with the progress,” said Schoenwetter. “We’re looking forward to the second addition being similar to the fi rst addition.” Trace Water’s 13-lot first addition was approved by the City Council in 2010. Since then, 10 of the lots have been sold and nine building permits have been issued. Three lots remain on the park-view side, according to Schoenwetter, and he is confident that buyers could still build and move in this year. Home prices range from $350,000 to $589,000. Schoenwetter said that the development has “broad market appeal.” “There’s no clear demographic trend, but acceptance of the neighborhood and price point has been very strong,” said Schoenwetter. “There are empty nesters, retirees and

Savage Planning Manager Bryan Tucker estimated that construction on the road could begin in January or February. “The main issue is that we need to work with Three Rivers (Park District),” said Tucker. “They own some of the property on the south side and we may need to acquire property from them.”

Schoenwetter said that the third and fourth phases of the project will be located to the west of Trace Water second addition with a bridge connecting the developments. He anticipates another year or two before those developments move forward. Gary Strom, a resident of 154th Street, complimented JMS on the progress of the project. “It’s totally unbelievable in this economic time to see s omet h i n g move for wa r d like this – lickity-split,” said Strom. The 32-lot single-family development was originally brought before the council in 2005 by Insignia Development under the name Walnut Woods. Economic difficulties forced Insignia to abandon the project. According to Tucker, the area required extensive planning that included discussions about road and utility connections. “This is a unique area and it took a lot of work to get things under way,” said Tucker.

donate at the Savage blood drive on July 28 from 2-7 p.m. at Glendale United Methodist Church, 13550 Glendale Road. According to an American Red Cross news release, “While it is typical to see a general
decline in all blood donations during the busy summer months, it’s important in particular to boost supplies of these Rh negative blood types because they can be transfused to patients with Rh positive or Rh negative blood. Type O
negative is the universal blood type and can be potentially transfused to patients with any blood type.” For more information call 1 (800) 733-2767.

SCOTT COUNTY FAIR
Bike-a-goat, and hold the grass salad Two local families win sheep and goats, and learn how to care for them BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com
While in mid-conversation, Molly Marshall and her mom, Jo, contended with a loud, almost human bleat of protest. Molly had just left the goat pen. “He gets very upset when she leaves,” Jo said. “He does that in the morning,” Molly said. “They’re very demanding,” Jo said. Molly, 13, of St. Lawrence Township, is one of two winners in the 4-H Market Lamb and Goat Challenge. The contest puts two winners in charge of raising a pair of animals that are given to them, and then showing them at the Scott County Fair. Nathan Schmidt, 12, of Sand Creek Township, is caring for sheep. Both winners had to submit an essay and be interviewed for the chance to take on the responsibility. The Marshall family had been involved in 4-H, and has been in shows for a handful of years with chickens, dogs and horses. However, goats were new to them. Molly named the two Boer market goats Blaze and Dopey. “Every year, even though I’ve done it for a while, I’m
always nervous for the county fair … but I always do good,” Molly said. In the 4-H goat show 8:30 a.m. Saturday, July 30, Molly will be entering the showmanship and market goat competitions. One is about how the person shows the goat, and one is about the goat, physically. “It’s almost like showing dogs,” Molly said. With Boer goats, musculature is important, and goats need to exercise. “Sometimes, she rides her bike and they run behind her,” Jo said. But it’s not all fun. Molly had to get up early to feed them when school was in session so she could catch the bus at 7:30 a.m. “She stayed busy,” Jo said. Dopey got an infection in its abdomen, which Jo said can often lead to death. But Molly kept up on giving the animal injections of antibiotics, and Dopey is on the upswing. Like other 4-H projects, the challenge program gives kids a way to keep learning in the summer and take pride in their work. “It’s one way of learning in the summer, even though you think you’re not doing anything,” Molly said.

Nathan Schmidt and his mom, Patti, said Nathan’s sheep are more like family pets. “Obviously, we’re not farmers, so we had to build a pen,” Patti said. The sheep are named Bo and Luke, from the Dukes of Hazzard. At their home in Sand Creek Township, it’s a similar story of being responsible for feeding the sheep – sometimes raisins – and taking them out
of the pen, and finding care when on vacations. Nathan has showed chickens and goats at the Scott County Fair, but never sheep, which could add some uncertainty to the show. Nathan will show Bo and Luke in the 4-H sheep show at 5 p.m. Thursday, July 28. “It will be interesting to see us out there, see how we do things,” Patti said. Both families said giving up the animals will be difficult. If Molly or Nathan makes it to the Minnesota State Fair, the animals would go to market after that fair. If not, they’d head to market after the county fair.

Molly Marshall has to protect her goats, Blaze and Dopey, from the heat of the summer sun. She rubs corn starch into their coats, and makes sure they have shade in the pen. Both families said they’d prefer not to eat their animals, thank you, and are already preparing to cope with having to give them up. “I know that they have a purpose in life, and it’s not to live with us” their whole lives, Patti said.
And for the record, Molly would prefer to keep Blaze and Dopey. “Can’t we just keep them?” Molly said to her mom. “No, we can’t keep them, because we’d have 10,000 retired 4-H projects running around here,” Jo said.

RVTC cast and crew are now just hoping the community opens itself up to something new. “Take a chance on this because you might be able to expand your repertoire of theater and you’ll find it very enjoyable,” Swanson said.

Leading lady Jessica Cranshaw, played by Carly McWilliams of Prior Lake, isn’t well liked by her cast but they still want to find her murderer when she collapses on opening night.
The River Valley Theatre Company is putting on a play. Actually, it’s putting on a play about a group of 1950s actors putting on a play — until, of course, the leading lady winds up dead. Never a good omen on opening night.
RVTC is breaking ground as the first Minnesota community theater company to perform the whodunit musical comedy “Curtains.” That’s both an opportunity and a challenge, said Director Scott Swanson. “On one hand you get to create your own thing,” he said. “On the other hand, there’s absolutely no history to draw from.” The local theater company debuted its backstage murder mystery Friday at the Shakopee High School

Savage wins tourney, edges Jays to improve to 21-2
The Savage Outlaws are playing like a team that looks like a lock to earn its fourth straight state appearance. The Outlaws are 21-2 on the summer, following a 3-2 win over the Prior Lake Jays July 13 at Alimagnet Fields in Section 4B standings game. Savage went into the game winning the Miller High Life Tournament in Arlington and Gaylord July 7-10, going 4-0 including a 4-3 win over Fort Ripley in the title game. Tony Peterson was the tournament’s most valuable player. All he did in the four games was go 7 for 14 with five RBIs, five runs scored, three stolen bases, two doubles and a triple. Savage opened the tourney with a 9-2 win over Gaylord,
followed with a 9-1 win over Brownton in the second round and topped Lamberton 3-1 in the semifi nals. The Outlaws fi nished third in the Class B state tournament last year after taking fifth the year before. Savage will be seeking its fi fth trip in six years and right now has to be considered one of the favorites to win it all, along with two-time defending champion Shakopee. Savage, Prior Lake, Rosemount and Inver Grove Heights make up Section 4B with two of the four teams earning state berths. This year’s tourney begins Aug. 19 and will be held in the towns of Glencoe, Brownton and Hutchinson.
There are only 34 Class B teams this summer with 16 making state. Savage is 5-0 against Section 4B competition, including 2-0 against the Jays and Inver Grove Heights and 1-0 versus Rosemount. The Outlaws finish the regular season with eight games in 13 days, starting Sunday, July 17 at Rosemount at 2 p.m. Savage returns home Monday, July 18 to take on Inver Grove Heights at 7:30 p.m. and faces Rosemount again at home the following night. Savage also plays at Chaska July 21. The Cubs are also considered a state favorite. In the win over Prior Lake, the Outlaws scored two runs
in the bottom of the seventh without a hit. Tyler Peterson tied the game with a sacrifice fly and Evan Walker got an RBI on a ball to right field that the Jays booted. Ben Braaten had an R BI single for the Outlaws in the fi rst inning. Anders Engberg got the win in relief, pitching four hitless innings with five strikeouts. Luke Anderson started for Savage and went five innings, allowing two earned runs on three hits, while fanning eight. At the tournament, the Outlaws jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the title game and held on. Brandon Walczak earned the save, pitching out of bases-loaded jam in the fi fth inning with

one out and his team up 4-3. Walczak came in for Tony Peterson, who allowed three earned runs on eight hits in 4 1/3 innings. Braaten led the offense, going 3 for 4 with a double and three RBIs. Dylan Peterson had an RBI, while Tyler Peterson with 2 for 3 with two runs scored. The Outlaws scored two runs in the first inning and two more in the second to open up an early lead. In the win over Lamberton, Ben Turnwall tossed a completegame, allowing five hits and fanning seven. All of the runs came in the first inning. Tony Peterson had a two-run single in the bottom of the frame. Against Brownton, Travis Pugliese got the win with six
strong innings. He fanned nine and allowed one hit and one unearned run. Savage scored six times in the fi fth inning to open up an 8-1 lead. Braaten had a threerun homer. Pat Abbe was 3 for 3 with a double, two RBIs and two runs scored. Ryan Peterson fi nished 2 for 3 with an RBI and two runs scored. Tony Peterson was 2 for 3 with an RBI, while Dave Verduzco had a run knocked in. Against Gaylord, Tyler Peterson and Abbe each fi nished with two RBIs, while Walker, Cody Aasen, John Means and Ryan Peterson each had one. Walczak was the winning pitcher, going five innings and allowing one earned run on four hits with six strikeouts. Danny Hanson pitched two scoreless innings of relief with three strikeouts.

Celebrating 100 seasons What are the state’s greatest high school hoops moments?
Entering her final season, Alyssa Sybilrud has helped the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire become a Division III national power PHOTO COURTESY OF UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN-EAU CLAIRE
Alyssa Sybilrud is entering her final season on the collegiate cross country trails this fall at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. She’s helped the Blugolds’ program become a Division III power, including winning a national title in 2009.
Last time on trails BY TOM SCHARDIN tschardin@swpub.com
A
lyssa Sybilrud’s career on the cross country trails is sort of akin to fine wine. She seems to have gotten better with age. This fall, the 2008 Burnsville graduate Alyssa and resident of Sybilrud Savage will be entering her final season on the Division III trails at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire. She’s helped the Blugold program become a Division III national power. As a sophomore Sybilrud was the team’s top finisher at the NCAA Division III National Championship meet, helping her team win the crown. “Alyssa is one of the most driven athletes who I’ve ever coached,” said Wisconsin-Eau Claire coach
Dan Schwamberger. “She has done a great job over the past three years of focusing on the little things – such as nutrition, strength work and consistent sleep – that are necessary to be successful at the collegiate level. “She is also a great teammate, who focuses not only on making herself the best runner she can be, but also making her teammates the best they can be,” added Schwamberger. “She truly cares for everyone on the team, which is one of the reasons I think she is such a great cross country runner. “In a race when she’s hurting she’s highly motivated by the fact that she is running not only for herself, but also for her teammates.” Last fall, Sybilrud helped the Blugold finish fourth at the national meet, finishing 23rd overall to earn All-American honors for the second straight year. If Sybilrud can earn All-American honors again this season, she’ll become only the third runner in Blugold history to earn that distinction.
“Alyssa is one of the most driven athletes who I’ve ever coached.” Dan Schwamberger Blugold Coach Last September, Sybilrud became the only Blugold runner to ever win an individual title at the University of Minnesota Roy Griak Invitational, which features runners from Division I and II. She outran a field of 447 competitors on the 6,000-meter course with a time of 22 minutes, 5 seconds, which was 11 seconds faster than her nearest competitor. For the effort, Sybilrud was named Athlete of the Week for the Wisconsin Intercollegiate Athletic Conference. Sybilrud finished 21st at the national meet when the Blugold won the title her sophomore year. It was

In March of 2012, the Minnesota State High School League will be celebrating 100 years of basketball tournaments. The fi rst was held in 1913, an invitational affair hosted by Carleton College in Northfield and won by Fosston 29-27 over Mountain Lake. The Leag ue is soliciting public input in selecting some of the greatest moments in the history of both the boys’ and girls’ state tournaments. An online poll is available on the League website to collect the “best of” in several different categories. Here is the direct link to the poll – http://www. mshsl.org/survey. Six categories for both boys and girls have been established for which up to three responses may be given for each gender: greatest state tournament games, best state tournament fi nishes, best state tournament shots, best state tournament teams, best state tournament players and best state tournament coaches. The poll will be available for public input until July 31. Results will be compiled, reviewed by MSHSL staff and a panel of basketball aficionados, but not released until the 2012 state tournaments. A variety of events are under consideration to commemorate the 100th year of state basketball tournaments. MSHSL staff is also soliciting memorabilia that could be displayed during the tournaments, such as programs, trophies, uniforms, balls, newspaper clippings, audio recordings, fi lms or videotapes. If you have something of interest you are willing to have displayed at the tournaments, contact the MSHSL office, (763) 560-2262.
BLAZE AT STATE The Burnsville boys and girls basketball programs have a combined 11 state appearances in their histories. The girls have had the most (nine), while the boys team has the two most recent showings (2008 and 2004). The Blaze boys were one and down in the Class 4A 2008 tourney, losing to Robbinsdale Cooper in the quarterfinals. That Burnsville team was led by standout Tarell Clark, the program’s all-time leader in steals. In 2004, the boys team nearly cut down the nets, finishing second to Chaska 71-57. Ryan Amoroso was the team’s top player then. He’s the all-time leading scorer for the Blaze, who is now playing professional basketball in Europe for the Iceland Express.

Zach Pfeffer was a part of the last Burnsville basketball team to qualify for state. That was the boys’ program in 2008.
Tamara Braun helped the Prior Lake girls basketball program earn back-to-back state appearances in 2002 and 2003. I n t he 2 010 -2 011 season, Amoroso averaged 18.8 and 9.6 rebounds per game for the Express. A f ter g raduati ng Burnsville in 2004, Amoroso started his Division I career at Marquette University before pl ayi ng hi s f i na l t wo seasons at San Diego State University. Meanwhile, the Burnsville girls program was one of the state’s elite in late 1970s and into the early 1990s. The program won Class AA state titles in 1977, 1991 and 1992 and was runner-up 1984. Burnsville’s last state appearance was in 1996.

Seniors back on diamond Five games scheduled from a pair of over 65 league teams F ive “vi nt age” baseba l l games are scheduled next week involving two over 65 league teams, the Minnesota Saints led by New Prague’s former pitcher Jim Vanasek, and the West Coast Bobcats out of San Diego. Co-manager Bob Lattery of Savage is promising that the games will provide a competitive match-up between seasoned baseball players in a full regulation game – nine innings, three outs and a full count. The schedule of games starts at Union Hill on Wednesday, July 20; Prior Lake on Thursday, July 21 at Veteran’s Field; Vesli on Saturday, July 23; New Prague on Sunday, July 24; and in Jordan on Monday, July 25 at the Mini Met. All games start at 1 p.m.; there is no admission, but goodwill contributions will be accepted. Local concession stands will be open at each location. Lattery recalled that the last time the Bobcats were in town, they “kind of beat up on
“Despite our age, the competition is very competitive.” Bob Lattery Savage resident the locals because we were not quite as prepared with personnel that had been active in league play.” “That will be different this time,” promised Lattery, who is involved in league play in Arizona in October and Florida in November. The Saints, co-managed by Lattery and Pat Thompson, will have players that travel to Phoenix, Ariz. at Fort Myers, Fla. each year to complete in the MSBL (Men’s Senior Baseball League) and a Roy Hobbs tournament. “A lot of our players have competed in the over 60 division and then the over 65 division,” Lattery said, “Despite our age, the competition is very competitive.”
Boots & Boas 5K Run/Walk scheduled You can run or walk a scenic, 3.1-mile course and help fight domestic abuse at the same time by participating in the inaugural Boots & Boas 5K Run/Walk on Sept. 10 at 9 a.m. at Purgatory Creek Park in Eden Prairie. The event is sponsored by Savvy.mn magazine, the Eden Prairie News, St. Francis Regional Medical Center and a number of other local businesses. A pre-race 50-yard “dash” in boots and boas will be held as a photo opportunity and to make people more aware of the good work of two organizations working to end domestic violence: Cornerstone, which serves southwestern Hennepin County, and the Southern Valley Alliance for Battered Women, which serves Scott and Carver counties. “The name of the event and the fact that a share of proceeds will go to Cornerstone and Southern Valley Alliance make it sound as if Boots & Boas is just a women’s event,” said Mark Weber, publisher of the Eden Prairie News newspaper. “It’s not. This is a fun event that men and children will love too, and a way for them to show support for two organizations that are doing great work.” Early-bird registration (before Aug. 20) costs $25 per person. After that the fee goes to $30; race-day registration is $35. You can register online at active.com (type in Boots & Boas), which charges a small administrative fee.

LOCAL AUTO RACING
Bill Woodworth, a fixture at Raceway Park in Shakopee since the 1970’s has had many big wins on the way to track championships in 1985, 2005, 2006, and 2007. But his win July 10 in the 25lap Hobby Stocks feature – his fi rst in three years – may have been the sweetest of them all. “Woody” or “Hacksaw”, as he is affectionately known to by many, has faced some serious health challenges in recent years. This has limited his racing time, but not his passion for competing. His soft-spoken manner, friendly demeanor and quiet courage in the face of various physical ailments have made him much admired by his peers, racing fans and track staff. Woodworth started on the pole July 10 and ran a strong, consistent race with his closest challenger being 2010 Hobby Stock champ Brent Kane who fi nished second after starting eighth in the 14-car field. Bryan Turtle, Jeremy Wolff and Luke Schmitt rounded out the top five. Other feature winners included: Shawn Evans in Bombers, Erica Waibel of Shakopee in Short Trackers, Chad Walen of Prior Lake in Super Late Models, Tim Brockhouse in Legends, James Wenzel in Bandoleros, Dennis Barta in the first Figure 8s feature and John Lebens in the second one. Racing action continues Sunday, July 17 starting at 6 p.m. For more information got to www.goracewaypark.com or call (952) 445-2257. In Super Late Models, Walen scored a racing hat trick by setting fast time, winning his heat, and then going on to win the 30-lap main event. Adam Royle, who was just .002 seconds slower in qualifying, won his heat and was right on Walen’s back bumper as both crossed the fi nish line. Royle, the 2009 and 2010 Super Late Models season champion, had won the last two features and the pair seems destined to battle for the 2011 title right down to the last race in September. In Bombers, Evans continued his hot streak by winning his fi fth feature In Short Trackers, Waibel won her third feature of the

She was a four-year letterwinner. On the Blaze track, she’s still the school record holder in the 1,600 meters (5:12.39) and the 3,200 (11:13.71), along with the 4 x 800 relay (9:31.85). However, Sybilrud was

LAKERS AT STATE The Prior Lake girls program has made three state appearances in its history, while the boys have never qualified. The girls’ last state appearance was in 2003, the final year the school was a Class 3A program. The Lakers also qualified for state in 2002 and in 1999 under former coach Paul Larson, who coached the program for 22 years winning 310 career games, before retiring following the
more of a complimentary runner on the Blaze’s cross country team in her four years. She was the team’s fifth-best finisher when the Blaze won the state title. It was her only state appearance (she finished 36th overall). College is where Sybilrud really started to blossom. Schwamberger said a more consistent training program in the offseason is the biggest reason she’s excelled for the Blugold. “I think this consistency is the main reason why she has been able to ‘blossom’ at the collegiate level,” said Schwamberger. “Alyssa is also an unbelievable competitor and during the past three cross country seasons this competitive nature has helped her run her best when it matters most.”
2008-2009 season. The Lakers’ 2002 and 2003 teams were led by Tamara Braun, who is the school’s all-time leader in blocked shots with 389. Braun, a Savage resident, was fourth in rebounds (720) and fourth in points (1,123). The Lakers were third at state in 2002 and fourth in 2003. Braun played four years of Division I basketball at Valparaiso University in Indiana (2003-2007). She’s still the career leader in rebounds (870) and blocked shots (192), while she’s ninth in career points (1,096).

Pick your own fun Heading to a park? Try an apple orchard instead BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com
D
own a road with a beautiful vista of the Minnesota River valley, the Minnesota Harvest apple orchard has drawn thousands of people over the years to pick apples, walk among the rows of trees and spend time with loved ones. This summer, it will again be open to visitors despite fear by some that last fall’s harvest was its final; the land had been sold to a developer in 2005 but continued to operate as an orchard. Instead, it lives on. About two miles west of Jordan, Minnesota Harvest covers 280 acres and is home to more than 30,000 trees. Instead of magnificent buildings, visitors this summer can expect to see the beauty of a hillside orchard with nearby buildings under renovation. The orchard will feel more like a park. But in a matter of months, for some people, the apple picking season is the essence of autumn. A new three-person investment management company started work at Minnesota Harvest this past winter under a three-year lease extension. Kevin Knox, a partner in the management company, is working to save the orchard. He said people have called him thanking his company for keeping the orchard going – some in tears. “We’ve started a massive cleanup,” said Knox, who owns and operates the Nicolin Mansion Bed and Breakfast in downtown Jordan with his wife, Terri. “The property was sold to developers. All the trees were going to get bowled over and they were going to put houses up here.” Now, the company is restoring the orchard, though its ultimate fate will depend on the new management and, of course, the visitors. Buildings that have fallen into disrepair are getting some major renovations starting this month. Eventually, the buildings that now show their age will offer full-service
A wall at the orchard has been newly painted and includes the iconic Minnesota Harvest logo.
Haralson apples were introduced in 1922 and have been one of the mainstays of Minnesota apple varieties, in part because of their winter hardiness. Rows of them grow at Minnesota Harvest.

weddings, concert and other events. The main building at the orchard will get extensive renovations. On the outside, a tower will be built on the front. The inside of the building will offer a customer service area, a sampling room and event seating, Knox said. The orchard will officially open Aug. 1, though visitors can make appointments to poke around, hike or take photos before by calling. You-pick apple picking starts in
Even finding a place to park is a scenic drive. Rows of apple trees, trails and dirt roads greet visitors who want to explore the orchard, which is part of the history of Scott County and Minnesota’s apple heritage.
late August and continues through September. Already, baby apples can be seen growing in the orchard. “Our primary goal is the harvest, is the apples,” Knox said. “This year we understand it’s going to be slow going.”
Yet, they still plan to have a corn maze and caramel apples, as well as allow people to do their own exploring on the trails and dirt roads that weave through the orchard’s thousands of trees. “The trails will be definitely open
for walks,” Knox said. They want the orchard to feel like a park, he said, with a place for kids to play, perhaps an antique working farm and, of course, the apples. “We like the idea of this being a park again,” Knox said.
