COOL JOBS: MIKE RIKER, WILDLAND FIREFIGHTER

Sweeney meets AYP, seven schools miss

TOUGH NEED APPLY SUBMITTED PHOTOS

No computer, no cell phone, 16- to 20-hour days of manual labor in smoke, wind, rain and heat. Jordan High School senior Mike Riker found his calling. Inset – This controlled burn was performed by Mike Riker’s North Star Fire Crew in Alaska. Many of the firefighters in the crew advance to Hotshot crews, like those deployed last week to fight a northern Minnesota wildfire.

Jordan High School senior’s summer job could fuel his career fighting wildfires

BY DAVID SCHUELLER dschueller@swpub.com

Editor’s note: This is an occasional series focusing on residents’ interesting, unusual or even oddball occupations. he wildland firefighters worked fast with chainsaws. If they didn’t, fire could get out in front of their crew of about a dozen, putting them in danger.

Among them was Mike Riker, an 18-year-old Jordan High School football player and wrestler chosen to be part of the

T

North Star Fire Crew in Alaska.

The crew often spent two to three weeks at a time in the Alaskan wilderness after flying into isolation to work 16- to 20hour shifts cutting wide swaths through the forest to rob a blaze of the fuel to rage on.

Firefighters subsisted mostly on military-style ready-to-eat meals, carrying 50-pound packs, striking camp around 3 miles from their saw lines. “Sometimes the nearest road’s 100 miles away,� Riker said.

Only the physically and mentally tough can make it

and thrive in such a crew, where members deal with what Riker called “long hours, little sleep and crappy food.� Some firefighters “broke� and had to be taken back to civilization. “They’d get sent back,� he said.

Not Riker. This was pretty close to his dream job.

He took a teenager’s sense of invincibility to Alaska in mid-May and returned from the largest state in the U.S. feeling somewhat more finite.

After two years of being oh-soclose, one Shakopee elementary is celebrating its own comeback story.

Sweeney Elementary met adequate yearly progress (AYP) in 2011 to stave off preparations for a mandated restructuring, according to data released by the Minnesota Department of Education Friday.

All student populations at Sweeney met their math and reading proficiency targets on the Minnesota Comprehensive Assessments for the fi rst time in five years. “After being called a failing school for four years in public, to be off this list is just a fantastic feeling,� said

To save or not to save?

As county adopts long-term visions for parks, it has a short-term decision to make

BY SHANNON FIECKE sfiecke@swpub.com

Who knows how long it’ll be before camping, horseback riding and kayaking can be offered at the DoyleKennefick Regional Park reserve south of Prior Lake.

In the meantime, the Civil Warera home that could serve as a centerpiece for the park sits vacant and locked up, its windowsills covered with boards.

The 1861 log home, which was added onto twice and covered with stucco, was occupied until 2002. The

following year the county purchased the farmstead for a regional park.

As the county has waited for funding to develop the park, the front porch has fallen into disrepair and vandals have marked the inside of the home and attempted to start it on fi re.

A citizens’ park design committee and the county’s Historical Society director believe the home should be preserved, but county commissioners are unsure whether the restoration is worth the cost.

The Scott County Association for Leadership and Efficiency (SCALE) compiled a group of local business leaders, real estate experts and others to identify strategies to further the county’s goal of securing enough employment by 2030 to support half of its labor force.

Area drivers get used to roundabouts

BY FORREST ADAMS fadams@swpub.com

SAVAGE — A columnist quipped sarcastically in an October 2009 edition of the Savage Pacer that Dan Patch, the famous racehorse owned

by Savage founder Marion Savage, would be happy to see the installation of the first traffic roundabout in the city of Savage because roundabouts were just “a throwback to the horse and buggy days.”

In 2009, the public was still learning about the proposed roundabout, which was installed last September at County Road 16 (McColl Drive) and Lynn Avenue/ Glendale Road.

There was opposition to the idea, but the project went forward with funding from the federal government. Now, one year after installation, city and county officials say the roundabout is functioning just how they hoped it would. Even the writer who made the Dan Patch reference is coming to terms with the device.

Martin Bracewell, an occasional contributor to the newspaper’s “Community Voices” column and a critic of the roundabout before it was installed, said he still approaches it “with a wary eye,” but admitted that traffic has slowed down, making the intersection potentially safer.

“As far as I know there haven’t been any major accidents at the intersection [since the roundabout installation],” he said.

Savage police Capt. David Muelken made a simi lar observation and confi rmed there have been no serious accidents in the intersection since the roundabout’s installation.

Muelken said that when traffic lights were in place, people who chose not to obey the signals could drive through the intersection at high rates of speed, creating dangerous traffic situations.

Two fatal crashes occurred at the intersection in 2004.

In 2008, there were 17 other serious crashes involving drivers trying to make lefthand turns.

PUBLIC SAFETY BRIEFS An 18-year-old Chaska woman has accused a 37-year-old man, Anthony Leo Scully, of raping her on their second date at his home in Shakopee.

Scully, whose home was searched by Shakopee police two days later, has been charged in Scott County District Court with thirdand fourth-degree felony criminal sexual conduct.

According to the criminal complaint, the woman met Scully on an online dating website called Skout.

The two went out for the fi rst time on Aug. 7. The following day, they met again. The woman said she went with Scully to his home at about 7 p.m. so he could pick up a few things.

While at the man’s mobile home, the woman said Scully began fondling her breasts, refusing her demand that he stop. She said he started kissing her and then pushed her to the floor, where he held her down and raped her. She told police she did not consent to the sexual contact or penetration.

Following the alleged sexual attack, she said she dressed and Scully drove her home.

The woman’s mother told police that her daughter was upset and crying when she arrived home and went straight into her bedroom. She told her mom she had been raped.

The woman went to St. Francis Regional Medical Center for a sexual assault exam. Police were notified at 9:30 p.m.

The victim told police she was assaulted at a mobile home park with flags at the entrance (later identified as the Bonnevista Terrace Mobile Home Park). She described her attacker, identified as Scully, as approximately 46 years old and wearing a red shirt with trees on it, white pants and a black belt with a cell phone.

On Aug. 10, detectives spoke with Scully at his home. He allegedly admitting bringing the woman to his home and having sexual contact with her. He allegedly admitted that she told him to stop twice during the encounter. He also reportedly said that she told him to stop penetrating her, so he did.

Officers procured a warrant to search Scully’s home and obtain a DNA sample.

Scully was charged last week and is scheduled to make his first appearance in Scott County District Court at 8:30 a.m. Oct. 24.

Police: ‘08 wedding theft leads to arrests Stolen checks and credit cards from a heist at a Shakopee wedding in 2008 led detectives to a Twin Cities check-writing ring and the fi ling of criminal charges against three people last month.

According to criminal complaints filed in Scott County District Court: A 30-year-old Bloomington woman, Jennifer Tasha Stiel, admits going into a wedding reception in September 2008 at the Shakopee Ballroom and stealing a purse near the gift Jennifer table. Inside, she found the keys to a car, which Stiel she and 32-year-old John Linares of Edina then stole. They took handbags and a camera that was later pawned from the $26,000 vehicle.

Stolen credit cards were used, checks were written and the victim’s identity was used to produce counterfeit checks and obtain credit cards.

The amount of original checks fraudulently written, along with two credit cards opened in the victim’s name, totaled $6,821. (Checks were also made using her identity and the account of a man whose real check was in the woman’s Shane purse.)

Lund Another $ 5,200 in counterfeit checks was passed at several casinos.

After viewing surveillance from Kwik Trip and SuperAmerica stores and Mystic Lake Casino, police identified the three sus-

pects and spoke with them: Stiel, Linares and 39-year-old Shane Robert Lund of St. Paul.

Stiel admitted writing several checks, opening a Best Buy credit card in the victim’s name and passing counterfeit checks, which were printed by Michelle Schneider, who has since been convicted in federal court for bank fraud and identity theftrelated charges.

Linares said he, Schneider and Stiel initially went to the ballroom because Stiel had this “thing where she goes out to weddings and takes stuff from the gift tables.” He said she stole the handbag, but it was his idea to steal the car.

Linares admitted using a stolen credit card and pawning or returning several items that had been obtained fraudulently.

In May 2009, King Cargo Vans and Trailer Sales notified Savage police of three forged checks drawn on its Klein Bank business account. Two of them were made payable to Linares.

He admitted receiving the counterfeit checks from Schneider, according to court records.

The detectives spoke with Lund in November 2008 after he allegedly attempted to cash a $2,491 counterfeit check at Canterbury Park. At that time, Lund admitted being part of a “big check-writing ring” with four other individuals, police said.

According to court documents, Lund said three of them make the checks and he and Stiel are the check cashers. He admitted cashing a fraudulent check for $1,510 two days earlier.

Lund led detectives to the hotel room where the checks were allegedly made. He admitted knowing of approximately 150 victims of this check-writing ring. In addition to printing fraudulent checks, he said they make fake Minnesota driver’s licenses.

Detectives also spoke with Goodman, who has been convicted in federal court for bank fraud and identity theft charges. She admitted printing checks and giving them to Stiel.

Lund is charged with theft by swindle and check forgery; Linares is charged with receiving stolen property, check forgery and stealing a motor vehicle; and Stiel is charged with identity theft, fi nancial credit card fraud and check forgery. All are felonies.

Woman charged with passing forged checks An arrest warrant has been issued for a 31-year-old woman, Andrea Marie Hansen, who is accused of passing nine forged checks stolen from a St. Louis Park home.

The home was burglarized in March. Shakopee police began investigating when two forged checks cleared the bank from Hennen’s Shell station in July.

Gas station employees said a woman presented the checks with a driver’s license matching the victim. Each clerk later identified Hansen Andrea as the woman who bought gas.

Hansen Hansen is accused of passing checks totaling $707 from May through July, including several at other gas stations and a grocery store in Chaska. Her address is unknown.

A man on the 1100 block of Pierce Street noticed kids dressed in black enter his neighbor’s garage last week. He called the homeowner, who came home and found his drawers and wallet rifled through. Some credit cards were stolen.

While officers were there, another neighbor reported two break-ins at his residence, said Shakopee police Capt. Chris Dellwo. The last incident happened last week, but wasn’t reported because nothing was taken. Someone appeared to have attempted to kick in the garage door and then entered an open basement window at that home. In August, a garage door was kicked open, but only loose change appeared to have been taken from the house.

The Minnesota Renaissance Festival opened an hour late Friday morning after a fire damaged several food booths.

The fire was reported around 6:15 a.m. at the Rogue’s Chicken booth and was under control after about an hour. Tanker fi retrucks from Chaska, Savage, Prior Lake, Jordan and Carver helped haul water to the site, which lacks fire hydrants.

An entire section of the festival grounds near the Crown Stage was closed off as the state fire marshal examined the scene.

Shakopee Fire Marshal Tom Pitschneider said investigators are still conferring on the cause of the fi re.

Erica Christo, a marketing official from the Renaissance Festival, said entertainers noticed the fire and quickly notified security.

commentary EDITORIAL

Graduation change was the right move by board Kudos to the Shakopee School Board for its decision to move the 2012 Shakopee High School graduation ceremony to a more spacious venue and for seeking input from the senior class and parents before doing so.

The class of 2012 will be the fi rst from Shakopee High School to hold commencement exercises somewhere other than the school or football field.

That fact made the decision difficult for some to accept, which is understandable. But the change was necessary if graduates wanted to invite anyone other than their parents to the ceremony as graduating classes in Shakopee continue to grow.

In the past four years, due to uncertain weather, commencement ceremonies have been held in the high school gym, the alternate to the preferred venue at Vaughan Field at the junior high school. When that happens, the crowd is packed like sardines in the hot gym and graduates have only four tickets each to dole out. For some graduates, it means that siblings, grandparents and others could not attend the special event. Although others have been able to watch a video feed in the school auditorium, it’s not the same as watching the event in person. Moreover, next year’s graduating class of around 500 likely means the auditorium wouldn’t have been big enough for everyone who would like to attend. And as class sizes continue to mushroom, it won’t be long before

JOIN THE CHAT WHAT DO YOU THINK? LET US KNOW AT

www.shakopeenews.com

the number of tickets each graduate received would be reduced, perhaps to as few as two.

The new venue, Grace Church in Eden Prairie, is close to Shakopee (less than 10 miles for most residents) and is the commencement choice of other high schools as well, including Chaska and Chanhassen. The rental cost will be somewhere between $6,000 and $8,000 and includes full use of the church’s audio and visual equipment, security and free parking, according to high school Principal Kim Swift. School officials point out that the district will save some expense from not having custodial staff set up graduation.

The traditional Friday evening graduation will change, too. This year’s class will walk the stage on Saturday, June 9.

Now, grandparents and other relatives of the graduates who travel to Shakopee for the big event will not be disappointed. Siblings will also get to attend and there will be no worries about rain or more than two uncomfortable hours in a stuffed gymnasium.

Most of us don’t want to get stung Buddy, the dog, doesn’t like bees; he tries to bite them. I don’t mind them; I understand their purpose: to pollinate and produce honey. I also know they can sting, but I accept that as part of the trade-off.

However, I am much less tolerant with wasps, hornets and other members of their swarm. I understand they are considered useful by those in the know, such as the University of Minnesota Extension Office.

“Wasps are predators, feeding insects and other arthropods to their young … They are beneficial because they prey on many insects ... Some wasps may become aggressive scavengers around human food … Nests that are near human activity can pose a potential problem. If there is a concern about stings, you should eradicate the nest.”

They suggest that you wait until nightfall to attack. One method is to “cover the nest with a large, heavy, plastic bag and seal it shut. Cut the nest from the tree and freeze it or let the bag sit in the sun, which will kill the wasps inside in a day or two. Use caution: there is more risk involved in this procedure than in spraying the nest.”

Uh-huh. It seems to me that if you were unsuccessful you have only made a bad situation much worse.

If they were aggressive before, they are sure to have revenge on their minds now. I have trouble with Ziploc baggies so I am going to avoid that method.

I like spraying them with an insecticide from a safe distance of two yards (mine and my neighbors).

I think someone should invent a predator drone for home use. They seem to be working very well in the “war on terror” or “overseas contingency operations” or whatever the phrase of the day is.

I would buy one of those to avoid getting stung. I think most people would. I also think most people want to avoid the sting of paying more taxes than is legally required

For instance, Doug Edwards, a retired millionaire and former Google employee, was an invited audience member of a town hall meeting held recently in California.

He asked President Obama, “Would you please raise my taxes?”

I agree, please raise Mr. Edwards’ taxes. But I don’t think he meant just his, because anyone who felt that they weren’t paying “their fair share,” has an easy solution.

Simply send the government a check.

According to http://www.fms.treas.gov/ faq/moretopics_gifts.html, a U.S. Treasury website, “Citizens who wish to make a general donation to the U.S. government may send contributions to a specific account called “Gifts to the United States.”

They even give you the address to make it easy.

Warren Buffet, a zillionaire, doesn’t think it’s right that his tax rate is lower than his secretary’s.

Well, I don’t think it’s right that his company, Berkshire Hathaway, may have owed the IRS $1 billion since 2002, according to various websites, based on a story from Americans for Limited Government.

Living within our means — really?

Every responsible parent struggles to teach their child what it means to “live within their means.”

Children need to learn how to balance what they spend with their ability to make an income. States, like individuals, should learn to budget, balance income with expenditures and pay our bills on time with dollars we actually have. The great attraction of this common-sense principle led to making “Living Within Our Means” the mantra of every single Republican running for office in 2010. Now, in retrospect, we are able to look at the state budget fiasco and see if they actually lived up to their campaign slogans.

Nobody on either side argued with the fact that cuts had to be made on the expenditure side of this equation. In fact, over the course of budget negotiations, neutral observers pointed out that the DFL governor and the Republican-controlled Legislature were more than 85 percent in agreement over budget targets — with Gov. Dayton making the great majority of the compromises necessary to get there. The argument came down to the fi nal 15 percent and this is where the whole “living within our means” thing really met its test.

Instead of balancing the expenditures with some available revenue increases, the Republican legislative leadership instead preferred to use borrowing and gimmicks to close the gap — $700 million in delayed payments to schools (on top of $1.4 billion the state already owes to our school children due to earlier budget “shifts”) and a $700 million scheme to bond against future tobacco settlement revenues. Where in that “living within our means” philosophy does it fit to dig ourselves deeper into a hole by not paying our bills on time or by borrowing against future revenues to balance today’s budget?

Let us all be clear: It was the Republican-controlled Legislature that devised the fi nal budget plan — the governor has no power to initiate legislation in Minnesota. He signed it with reluctance, only when it became clear that a continued and protracted shutdown was a greater danger to our state than this shameful piece of legislation.

When the rubber met the road, it was apparent to all that “living within our means” was nothing more than another hollow Republican political slogan.

You hold the power to end domestic violence October is Domestic Violence Awareness Month, a time when battered women’s advocates in our community and across the nation focus on the subject of domestic violence.

While the nation has passed the milestone of 10 years since Sept.

11, 2001 and the “high-terror alert” that was implemented, there is another terror alert that is always

present. It is the terror in the hearts, minds, battered bodies and spirits of women who are victims of domestic violence. In the United States, 25 percent of women report being physically or sexually abused by a husband or boyfriend at some point in their lives.

The images and impact of Sept.

11 will always be with us. Our nation experienced violence as we have never known before. Many of us recall dealing with the fear and anxiety created by the horrific event.

Now, imagine the fear and anxiety that hundreds of women live with each day. Their fear is not of violence that was perpetrated by strangers from a foreign country. Their fear is of a person they know, once loved and trusted. For 15 women in Minnesota in 2010, that fear manifested itself in loss of life due to domestic violence.

For many of us, we seem to know that violence is occurring behind closed doors of homes in every corner of our community. Where we fail as a concerned person and community is in knowing what we can do personally and collectively to help those living with the violence.

While it is true that domestic violence is a complex problem, the fact is there are steps we all can take in our lives to stop the violence, support the victim and save a life.

If you suspect a family member, neighbor or friend is being battered, ASK if they are safe at home or in need of help. TELL them there is no excuse for abuse and there are organizations to help them SUPPORT the decisions they make while breaking free from violence. CALL the police if you hear or witness an assault in progress.

Please know that you hold the power to end domestic violence, one community at a time, one home at a time, one life at a time. If you would like more information about domestic violence and the programs available to help those in these circumstances, please call Southern Valley Alliance for Battered Women at (952) 873-4214 or visit our website at www.southernvalleyalliance.org.

Thank you for being on “high-terror alert.”

erans was there to open the event.

Mayor John Schmitt, county Commissioner Barbara Marschall and Todd Kubinski, director of county Veterans Service office, each made a speech. The Cox family and the Herrgott family were recognized that day in honor of their fallen soldiers.

Other events took place that day.

The group supports the Fisher House near the VA hospital in Minneapolis once a month. It is a place where families of a veteran can stay while their veteran is a patient at the VA hospital. On Oct. 9 they will be hosting a pancake breakfast at the VFW in Prior Lake. The proceeds are used for Beyond the Yellow Ribbon. Recently, they hosted a golf tournament along with a silent auction at the Wilds Golf Course.

These are some of the few events they host.

I was asked to attend a meeting in Prior Lake when the group was forming. They knew I do the Minnesota Military Appreciation Walk and also help get the military float for the Derby Days Parade together and send greeting cards to soldiers.

My husband Marty is a veteran who served in the Vietnam War and he decided to attend the meeting as well.

We were very impressed. So we joined. When Marty was deployed, if it wasn’t for our families, I and our three daughters would have been on poor street. In those days there weren’t any wonderful support groups as the Beyond the Yellow Ribbon. In return we are anxious to volunteer and help these current soldiers and their families. I hope in the near future Shakopee residents and leaders start a Beyond the Yellow Ribbon South of the River group here.

Thank-you from the bottom of my heart for all that the Beyond the Yellow Ribbon South of the River group in Prior Lake does. God bless America.

On Sept. 22, the Shakopee Rotary Club hosted the Harlem Ambassadors professional show basketball team for a night of high-flying slam dunks, hilarious comedy, and feelgood family entertainment. The Harlem Ambassadors would like to extend a special thank-you to event organizers Jason Marschall and Tim Whitcomb who planned and promoted the game. The Shako Dunkers proved to be an energetic and enthusiastic challenging team and we thank all of the players for their good sportsmanship.

The event would not have been possible without the support and generosity of local community sponsors, the Shakopee Rotary Club members, and the event volunteers.

The Harlem Ambassadors thank the community of Shakopee for its warm hospitality and look forward to returning to Shakopee in the future!

Partial victory for Ciliberto

Take your car search for a spin.

Judge OKs smaller raise, denies hikes for top staff Once again, Scott County District Court Judge William Macklin found the Scott County Board failed to follow legal requirements for setting an elected official’s salary and has ordered a small raise for Scott County Attorney Pat Ciliberto But Macklin failed to find sufficient cause for also increasing the pay of Ciliberto’s top staff. And, in a decision filed Sept. 22, he appears to have little sympathy for the plight of the Scott County Attorney’s Office.

All levels of government face “extraordinary fiscal challenges,” Macklin wrote, and to meet these challenges, those who choose to work for the government are being asked to forgo wage and salary increases.

“Within the Minnesota judicial branch, judges, reporters, law clerks and court administration staff have gone without any increase in wages and salaries — COLA’s [cost of living adjustments] and steps included — for the past two fiscal years, and it is unlikely that there will be any in the next two years,” he said.

That being noted, Macklin said he was still required to determine if Ciliberto’s salary and his office budget met statutory requirements.

On Tuesday, the Scott County Board complied with Macklin’s order and raised Ciliberto’s salary by 3 percent to $128,000.

Both Ciliberto and County Sheriff Kevin Studnicka appealed their salaries, which were frozen for 2011, arguing county commissioners failed to even discuss their experience and duties when setting their pay, as required by law.

Macklin agreed, and in April, or he provided Studnicka with a 3.8 percent increase, raising his pay to $117, 872.

“As in the sheriff’s case the more difficult issue is what a reasonable salary is under the law,” Macklin said.

Ciliberto had asked the court to set his 2011 salary at the 2010 average salary of four metro counties, or $143,183.

However, Macklin didn’t consider Ciliberto’s salary out-of-line when the population of the other counties (Anoka, Dakota, Car ver and Washington) and the experience of their county attorneys were considered.

“His 2010 salary was 87 percent of the average compared with the county’s population at 50 percent of the four-county

Pat Cilberto

Kevin Studnicka

average and years of experience at 43 percent of the four-county average,” Macklin said.

W hat t roubled Mack li n, however, is the pay gap between Ciliberto and Scott County’s three highest paid employees before Ciliberto’s pay increase: county administrator ($130,612), deputy county administrator ($127,260) and health and human services director ($126,811).

“He is responsible for providing legal counsel to each of the county’s departments, including two division heads who earn more than he does,” Macklin noted. “Taking into an account the responsibilities and duties … the data from the four comparable counties and [Ciliberto’s] experience, qualifications and performance, the court fi nds a reasonable salary for 2011 should be $128,000.”

Unlike Studnicka, Ciliberto also appealed the salaries of his top staff — Chief Deputy Ron Hocevar ($114,952), who has worked for the county 16 years; Neil Nelson, the criminal division head for 23 years ($108,102), and Civil Division Head Susan McNellis, who has been the fi rst assistant for 25 years ($117,535).

Their salaries are 90 to 92 percent of the average paid in the comparable counties.

It is undisputed these top attorneys are experienced and competent, Macklin said, but the issue — although relying in large part on the same law — is different than Ciliberto’s salary.

“Presumably the Legislature allowed for an appeal to make sure that a county attorney, an elected public official, is fairly and reasonably compensated by fellow elected officials and not subject to the whim of politics,” Macklin said. “The concern regarding staffi ng is that the funding is sufficient to enable the county attorney to carry out his duties and obligations.”

“Without a doubt” Ciliberto’s office is meeting its duties and obligations, Macklin said.

His staff is well-prepared, timely, seldom seeks continu-

ances and enjoys the occasional luxury of a second chair for serious felony trials, he said.

“Contrast that with the office of the state public defender, which is demonstrably underfunded,” Macklin said. “Assistants are assigned to multiple courtrooms on the same day, continuances are frequently necessary, there are no second chairs and certified student attorneys routinely provide back-up.”

Ciliberto had requested an additional $52,537 to bring his salary and three supervisors up to par with suburban counterparts.

Scott County did make a major adjustment to the salaries of assistant county attorneys in 2006 as part of an effort to stop the bleeding of experienced staff to higher-paying counties.

Ciliberto, whose own salary was less than the average chief deputy pay of other suburban metro counties, was told his supervisors would eventually get the salary bump they needed as well. That never occurred.

Ciliberto believes comparable compensation is necessary for him to attract and retain quality staff.

It’s true Ciliberto’s top staff could earn more elsewhere, Macklin said, but a mass exodus from the top positions does not appear likely.

“While it cannot be denied that his chief deputy, criminal division head and first assistant could earn more in other metropolitan counties, they remain in their positions in Scott County and have for the past eight years,” Macklin said. “There simply isn’t any evidence that the appellant’s budget and corresponding salaries for his leadership team are preventing him from fulfi lling the obligations and duties of his office.”

The county board had been giving Ciliberto and Studnicka annual raises to try to get their salaries up, but refused to depart from a countywide salary freeze for 2011.

County Administrator Gary Shelton, who received a unanimous evaluation of exceeding per for mance standards on his latest evaluation from the County Board, did not receive a raise during the recent annual review.

In court hearings on the salary matters, he noted that he is at the rock bottom of his peers.

Ciliberto, who can appeal Macklin’s ruling, declined to comment on the decision until the matter “is concluded.”

It appears the stars are lining up behind County Road 101 as the preferred option for a raised river crossing in this area.

Communities on both sides of the river back the 101 option over Highway 41, but the city of Shakopee would like the state to expand the crossing to four lanes — or at the very least, make it expandable.

State transportation engineers were in town Sept. 28 meeting with Shakopee businesses about the state’s flood mitigation study. On Friday, they released their fi nal report with all the Minnesota River modeling.

From this data, the state must now decide which crossing to submit this fall for competitive bonding dollars. But from the conversation at last week’s meeting, it appears a given that County Road 101 will be submitted.

Engi neers t hemselves seemed surprised by how much potential the narrower 101 crossing showed over Highway 41 once the data was complete.

The main bridge on Highway 41 limits that crossing from being raised as high as 101.

The study produced a lot of good data no one knew before, including that the 101 crossing can be raised to provide 100-year flood protection, said Scott County Deputy County Administrator Lezlie Vermillion, who has a transportation background.

The Shakopee City Council has passed a resolution supporting the 101 option and is forming an organization with other towns to rally behind the project.

Like city councilors, businesses want the crossing built to four lanes off the bat, especially if the road has to be closed for the duration of construction.

www.shakopeenews.com “My concern is we’ll be back here in five years” if the road isn’t four lanes, said Shakopee Chevrolet sales manager Tom Frazier.

Sh a kop e e M ayor Joh n Schmitt told state transportation officials the city “would like to avoid a 12-month closure.”

Lynn Clarkowski from the M i n ne sot a D epa r t ment of T ranspor tation said i f the project is proposed now as four lanes it could doom its chances.

This is due to the extra cost and permitting required since the crossing is in a wetlands area.

“The more you try to solve, t he lon ger it t a ke s,” s a id Clarkowski.

Already, the state’s environmental review process is slated to take 12 to 18 months.

While state engineers were unwilling to definitely state that the bridge can at least be built to be easily expanded in the future, a former head state transportation official in attendance was confident it could be done. Furthermore, he was optimistic the construction window could shrink from the 12-month window given advances in technology and with creative bidding.

Sha kop ee leaders a l so brought up efforts in Carver County to improve Highway 101 on the other side of the river.

Clarkowski urged local officials to approach the projects separately and leave the connecting piece in the bluffs area (commonly called the Y) for the future. Including that section in a 101 river crossing project could kill it for permitting purposes.

The final f lood mitigation study shows a $ 27.7 million estimate for raising the 101 crossing, more than is cur-

rently available from state bonding. Sen. Claire Robling, R-Jordan, appeared confident that necessary funding could be found.

Because a long-span bridge would be used with deep pilings, more in-depth design analysis is needed to fi ne-tune cost projections. The estimate includes a 20-percent risk factor for this.

Other highlights from the meeting: I O r i g i n a l ly, t he s t at e thought it could keep the wider Highway 41 open during construction if raised the crossing there. But bridge engineers have now cast doubt on that possibility.

I While the state says it could take up to a year of complete closure to raise the County Road 101 crossing, it could be constructed through the dead of winter. In fact, the ideal construction for this type of a project would be from October to October.

I A 12-foot trail is included in the County Road 101 crossing design, an important link between Shakopee and Chanhassen.

I Hennepin County wil l raise a section of Flying Cloud Drive (formerly Highway 212) that frequently f loods if the state raises 101.

I Earliest possible construction is fall 2013.

I Lezlie Vermillion of Scott County suggested the project could be designed with more flexible standards should the state turn control of its section of the road over to Carver County.

(This could also generate additional dollars for the project.)

I Natural resource agencies, including the state Department of Natural Resources, often natural enemies of new bridges, actually support raising a river crossing here. Because a land bridge would be used where fi ll now exists, it would help flush out non-native material from the Minnesota River backwaters.

LIVESREMEMBERED Kaydence Jaymes Yahr

Barbara R. Wolf

Kaydence Jaymes Yahr, infant daughter of Karl and Andrea (Pfleghaar) Yahr of Fort Wayne, IN, was stillborn at Parkview Hospital, Fort Wayne, IN Friday, Sept.16, 2011.

Besides her parents, she is survived by three sisters, Theresa, Melissa, and Samantha Yahr; grandparents, Janice Yahr of Crawfordsville, IN and Jim and Alice Pfleghaar of Jordan, MN. The funeral service and burial were held Tuesday, Sept.

20, at St. John's Lutheran Church, Columbia City, IN.

Barbara Ann Rieschl was born Jan. 29, 1933, in Passaic, NJ, to parents Martin and Emma (Beglinger) Rieschl.

Growing up the youngest of three children in New Jersey, Barbara and her family enjoyed traveling and spending time at their cabin in Wisconsin. Graduating in 1950 from St. Nicholas High School in Patterson, NJ, Barbara attended and later graduated from St. Catherine’s University in St. Paul. Advancing her degree, she graduated as just one of two women to graduate from the University of Minnesota in 1957 with a Pharmaceutical Degree, placing at the top of her class.

In October 1954, while spending a weekend away from college at her sister’s home, Barbara met a handsome man named Robert Wolf at the Corner Bar in Jordan. Dancing the night away in her black patent leather shoes, her love grew and she and Bob exchanged vows Aug. 25, 1956 at St. John the Baptist Church in Jordan. They were blessed with eight children: Kristin, Sheila, RJ, Patrick, Tom, Michael, Merrie and Paul.

Together, Barbara and Bob owned and operated Jordan Drug. They took great pride in the store, serving the local community. Over the years, they treasured many special friendships formed while serving customers. A dedicated Jordan resident, Barbara was a member of the Knights of Columbus Ladies Auxiliary, Jordan Lioness Club and the V.F.W. Ladies Auxiliary. A devoted Catholic, Barbara attended daily mass and was proud of her children being baptized, confirmed and some even married at St. John’s Church.

Barbara, Bob and the children treasured creating fond memories at the family cabin they owned in Gordon, WI. Barbara felt at home at the cabin, for this was the same lake on which she spent so much time as a young girl. After retirement, Barbara and Bob loved traveling abroad, visiting Italy, Spain, Germany, Portugal, Korea and Hawaii. One of her fondest memories was a special private audience with Pope John Paul in Rome. In her spare time, Barbara loved bowling, shopping for great bargains, buying furniture and going out to eat with friends. Spending time with her family was her biggest pride and joy. Holidays in general were all special times with the family, but Christmas was the top of her list. Every Sunday, the family would sit around the table enjoying a wonderful meal and each other’s company. A visionary and true pioneer, Barbara was a very generous woman who gave her all to everyone. Loyal to her family, affectionate as a wife, caring as a mother and a loving grandmother, she was very knowledgeable about life and had a great sense of humor.

Barbara passed away peacefully at the age of 78, with her husband at her side the evening of Tuesday, Sept. 27, 2011 at the Belle Plaine Lutheran Home in Belle Plaine.

Barbara will always be loved and missed deeply by her husband of 55 years, Robert; children, Kristin (Brett) Storrar of Vadnais Heights, Sheila (Scott) Mitchell of Minneapolis, RJ (Susan) Wolf of Bloomington, Patrick (Dana) Wolf of Hermantown, Tom (Kellie) Wolf of Prior Lake, Michael (Margaret) Wolf of St. Paul, Merrie (Ken) Matson of Chanhassen, Paul Wolf of Jordan; grandchildren, Robert, Madeline, Daniel and Michael Storrar, Austin (Vince) Srejma, London Vale, Andrew and Kathryn Wolf, Jordan, Patrick, Jonathan and Julia Wolf, Thomas, Nolan, Evan and Mason Wolf, Alexander, Rachel, and Adam Wolf, Alexis Matson; brother-in-law, Dr. Paul Stahler of Jordan; sister-inlaw, Patricia Rieschl of Minong, WI; and many other relatives and friends. Barbara is preceded in death by parents; sister, Elizabeth Rieschl; brother, Martin Rieschl.

The visitation was Friday, Sept. 30, from 4-8 p.m. at Ballard-Sunder Funeral Home, Jordan as well as one hour prior to the service at Mass. The Mass of Christian Burial was held Saturday, Oct. 1, at 11 a.m. at St. John the Baptist Church, Jordan. Father Timothy Yanta officiated. Barbara will be laid to rest at Calvary Cemetery in Jordan.

Memorials preferred and will be distributed in Barbara’s memory by the family.

Donna Mae Hallgren Born on June 30, 1936, in New Market, Donna Mae was the only child of Ben and Adale (Kroening) Schoenecker. Donna moved to Shakopee with her family and attended Shakopee Area Catholic Schools through eighth grade. Donna worked part time at the local theater and Bridgeman’s Ice Cream Shop. She enjoyed scooping ice cream and was known to make the best malts in town – a skill she never lost. She was her senior class secretary and graduated from Shakopee Senior High in 1954.

Donna lost her father at age 11 and her mother at 22.

While working as a legal secretary for city attorney, Julius Coller, Donna made a bet with another secretary that she could get a date with the young dentist, Dr. Warren Hallgren, who worked in the same building. The date took place and the rest is history. They were married Oct. 14, 1961, at St. Mark’s Catholic Church in Shakopee. They welcomed daughter Carol in 1962. She agreed to Warren’s insistence that she get her driver’s license, at which point he agreed to her request to buy a new home. They moved into their Main Street home in 1963 and welcomed daughter Janet in 1965.

Donna and Warren belonged to a travel club, which allowed them to visit places including Rome, Switzerland, Paris, Mexico, and the Caribbean. Donna was also an active volunteer in the Shakopee Public Schools; she led band trip fundraisers, offered her garage space on two occasions for the making of the high school homecoming floats, and served on the all-night graduation party committees.

After losing her husband in 1998, the relationships that Donna maintained with her friends were very important and of great comfort to her. In particular, her close friend, Carol Schmidt, was a frequent dinner, movie, travel, and shopping companion. She loved the trips she took with her daughters, including Hawaii and a Walt Disney cruise.

Donna enjoyed talking politics and brushing up on current affairs – and she had many strong opinions (all Democratic!). Loving traditions and being very family oriented, Donna loved Christmas, celebrating birthdays, and insisted on feeding anyone who stopped by to visit. The freezer and refrigerator were always filled with great treats and delicious meals. A lifelong animal lover, Donna never met a dog she didn’t love – and her daughters provided her with many to spoil over the years!

A charter member of the Shakopee Lioness Club, Donna was also very interested and knowledgeable about family history and the history of Shakopee. She even typed the original Shakopee Story, written by Julius Coller. After moving to Northridge Court, Donna enjoyed socializing with the neighbors and new friends. She also enjoyed dropping a few nickels in the slot machines and eating a good steak at Mystic Lake. Donna’s greatest passion was her family. She was extremely proud of her daughters, felt blessed with her wonderful sons-in-law, and adored her grandchildren.

At the age of 75, Donna passed away unexpectedly Tuesday, Sept. 27, 2011, at her home.

George Joseph Kelzer George Kelzer, 71, of rural Amery, WI, passed away Thursday, Sept. 29, 2011, after a long struggle with liver disease. He spent his last week at home continuously surrounded by family and friends.

He was born March 9, 1940 in Victoria, MN to Leonard and Alice (Geis) Kelzer. He grew up in Shakopee and graduated from Shakopee High School in 1958. He graduated from Mankato State College in 1963 and enlisted in the Naval Air Reserve. He served his full seven years though illness suffered from his service time caused him to be in and out of hospitals the rest of his life. He married Terry Wallman Nov. 7, 1968.

George worked in the building trades and specialized in finish carpentry and tile and stone work. His interests were varied and many, he loved the farm, the woods, nature trips, gardening, and growing grapes. He loved antiquing and collecting antique German beer steins and was a long time member of Stein Collectors International and the Upper Midwest Society of Stein Collectors.

He is survived by his wife, Terry; children, Angela Joy Niemann, George Joseph Jr (Joe); granddaughter, Alexandra (Ali); sisters, Jane, Eileen, Mary, Monica, Patty; brothers, Jeff and Michael. He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Leonard.

A celebration of George’s life will be held at the farm in Amery Saturday, Oct. 15 from 1 to 3 p.m.

Marie Agnes Abeln On May 28, 1918 in Shakopee, John Henry and Philomena “Minnie” (Thiede) Ablen were the proud parents of Marie Agnes. She was the first of the Abeln triplets born, and then came Philamine and finally John. They marked a milestone for the city of Shakopee as the first set of triplets born. Growing up in the big red house across from St. Mark’s Church, Marie has many fond memories living there with her siblings. She attended school through the eighth grade.

For most of working years, Marie cleaned homes and maintained the yards for several families in Shakopee. She also helped her mother with the family home as well. She was excellent with children, especially her nieces and nephews and loved being around them In her earlier years, Marie loved to find treasures at area garage sales, playing bingo at St. Marks Church and at Levee Drive apartments and watching game shows, especially Wheel of Fortune, the Price is Right and American Funniest Home Videos. In her later years, she enjoyed listening to the Polka music show at noon, working in the word search books and playing cards. At the age of 92, Marie was entertained watching Monday Night Raw Wrestling.

As a little girl and well into their twenties, Marie and Phil always dressed alike. This classy style was her foundation throughout her life. Marie loved clothes and jewelry.

Dressing in the finest clothes and accessorizing with jewelry, Marie always matched from head to toe. For the past two and half years, Marie has lived with her niece, Monica, where her weekly chore was folding towels for Monica’s Beauty Shop. She took great pride in folding them precisely.

A life-long resident of Shakopee and age 93, Marie, the last of the triplets to pass, entered God’s arms the midmorning on Sunday, Oct. 2, 2011 at her niece’s home in Shakopee.

Marie will always be loved and missed deeply by her nieces and nephews, Donald Schultz, Mary Hallich, Kathleen Siler, Anita (Tom) Roeser, Monica (Delton) Giese, Elise (Les) Guthrie, Peter Schultz, Joe Schultz, Donna (Kenny) Theis, Charlie (Lil) Abeln and many, many great and great-great nieces and nephews. She is also survived by two very special and dear caregivers, Mary Danner and Chris Thon, and hospice caregivers, Ann, Tamra, Deanna and Chaplain Tanya. Marie is preceded in death by her parents, John and Minnie; sister, Elizabeth (Don) Schultz; triplet brother, John (Marge) Abeln; triplet sister, Philamine “Phil” (Kerney) Hennen; infant brother, Peter Abeln; niece, Phyllis Schultz, grandnephews, John Abeln, Larry Theis, and Scott Hallich.

The Mass of Christian Burial will be Thursday, Oct. 6 at 10:30 a.m., with visitation one hour prior all at the Church of St. Mark, 350 Atwood St., Shakopee. Pallbearers for Marie will be Peter Schultz, Charles Abeln, Kenny Theis, Thomas Roeser, Delton Giese and Darren Giese. Honorary pall bearers will be her caregivers, Mary Danner and Chris Thon. Father Tom Boedy will officiate. Marie will be laid to rest next to her parents at the Catholic Cemetery in Shakopee.

regions, the county needs to create and promote a consistent image and identify, as well add ress site availability.

“We have few pad-ready sites — we were really hurting there,” said Deputy County Administrator Lezlie Vermillion of a review of local sites by a national expert. “He was talking about six months in the ground and ready — we aren’t there.”

In the tussle for business development, the community also needs to toot its horn more, said Michele Foster, a real estate adviser who facilitated the group. “I don’t feel that’s been done enough.”

A robust public-private fiber ring circles the county, but “a lot of businesses don’t know about it,” she said. “When you see Car ver County getting press in the Star Tribune, you are already in the implementation phase.”

Local leaders were encouraged to capitalize on the county’s strengths, which include a skilled, educated work force; open land along major trans-

portation corridors and the availability of rail, airports and the ports of Savage.

“We don’t a good job of selling ourselves,” agreed Savage Mayor Janet Williams.

Sh a kop e e M ayor Joh n Schmitt said he’d put the county’s work force up against any in the country. “How many strikes do we have out here? We have a farm-based work force that speaks well for us.”

But the county also needs to work on its weaknesses: the perception of being “south of the river” (with f looding closures), limited influence on metropolitan planning, limited higher education options, the lack of large corporate headquarters and underutilization of entertainment venues (among others).

Since each town benefits from nearby jobs, the goal of the group is for communities in the county to market their available land together, with one source for brokers to come to when they’re seeking information.

Those at the meeting said local government staff must be able to deliver on their discussions with businesses without drawn-out processes.

JulieAnn

How about an easygoing, very friendly kitten to keep you company when you get home? Born in May 2011, this active kitten is a door-greeter who will ankle-rub and purr to welcome you home. Sammy likes being picked up, will jump onto your lap when you sit, and enjoys brushing.

He is passive but playful with most cats and gentle children. Sammy, a brown tabby, has an orange tabby brother.

This friendly little black and gray Chihuahua would like to be your car companion and go walking with you. She enjoys petting, scratching, and tolerates being picked up.

She’ll meet you at the door and tag along as you go about the house. She is quiet, calm, and easygoing. JulieAnn ignores most cats and dogs in preference for people. After being a loyal 9 -year-old companion, the past folks didn’t care enough to check impound for her. Will you care?

When he meets with a company interested in coming to Savage, Stock said he knows what his council will support.

“I could yes, without a doubt, say this is what’s going to happen.” Others in the room couldn’t say as much for their councils.

There needs to be a collective consensus and commitment on economic development strategies and the money it may take — whether that be incentives or putting in roads and utilities necessary so land is developable, said attendees at the SCALE meeting.

“It all sounds great on paper — we all nod our heads and say yes, this is what we want,” said Stock. “But when a project comes in adjacent to maybe a neighborhood that opposes it, we have to stand up as leaders and make the tough decision.

The minute we veer from what we’re saying, you can f lush [this] down [the toilet]. That word gets out quick in the development community.”

It’s like doing business with someone, said Louisville Township Clerk LuAnne Lemke. “If we don’t have it all together, people are going to say forget it.”

JOB continued from page 1

“You definitely take a whole new perspective on the value of life,” Riker said.

They saw bears in their camp, and had to leave quickly on more than one occasion because of approaching fire.

“Got run out of camp a few times by fire,” Riker said.

More recently, he’s been wishing he was with fellow crew members who were shipped to fight massive wildfires in Texas. He’s watched reports of fire spreading in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area (BWCA) in northern Minnesota.

Hotshot fire crews were mobilized from other states to fight the BWCA fire.

The North Star Fire Crew serves as a recruitment tool for Alaska Hotshot crews.

Riker hopes to join such a crew in the future, and even become a smokejumper, a firefighter who jumps into remote areas by parachute to contain fires as a first response.

He’s been sitting in a high school desk itching to get back to a fire crew.

“It’s fun work. You’re out with a group of guys,” he said.

There was one woman on his crew, who entered the Alaska Iditarod sled dog race. There were a handful of men from western states and a few from Arizona and Alaska. Some were ex-military

members.

Riker said his crew only took 28 out of about 800 applicants, who are then winnowed down to 16.

They had to pass a series Mike of physical Riker tests and had to post stats like running 1-1/2 miles in around 10 minutes, doing 12 pull-ups, and walking 3 miles in less than 45 minutes while carrying a 45-pound pack, he said.

Once aboard, they would get dispatched to fires and have two hours to ready their gear, before getting on a plane, then a helicopter, to fly to a fire.

Last year, Alaska had about 380 fires of an acre or larger in size, but only seven large fires of more than 1,000 acres, Riker said. There can be hundreds of people fighting a single fire, in crews spread out in the wilderness.

Like the recent blaze in the BWCA, they’re typically caused by lightning strikes.

Out in the forest, 90 percent of the work was cutting saw lines to remove fuel from the fire. They’d also light controlled burns to remove fuel from an area. In their downtime, they worked on volunteer public service projects like building trails.

Riker’s mom, Deanna Riker of New Prague, said she and his dad, Mike, followed a

website that showed where the crews were, and if anyone had come back with injuries.

“We were lucky we could follow the website to see where he was placed,” she said.

Although the job has inherent dangers, Deanna said it was too great an opportunity for her son to pass up.

“There’s not that many people in life that get their dream. He got his dream,” Deanna said.

Her son had long been interested in fire and emergency response.

Mike started out in the Chaska Fire Explorers when he was 15. He also got to see his sister and dad’s experience working with North Memorial Medical Center ambulance.

Riker also has a solid career path plotted once he graduates, and got a strong recommendation from his crew boss, which he said almost guarantees him advancement as a wildland firefighter.

Now, he’s spending more time sitting than he did all summer.

“At school, it kind of sucks having to sit in a desk all day,” Riker said.

In the desk, however, he has a couple commodities that can be difficult to find for high school students – a career plan and confidence to carry it out, and in his case, to continue work in the woods.

“The motto is being self sufficient, self dependent,” Riker said.

Reggie Bowerman

Jeremy Casper

BY KRISTIN HOLTZ kholtz@swpub.com

BY KRISTIN HOLTZ kholtz@swpub.com

Reggie Bowerman is a bit of a history nut and his reading list will prove it.

The political science and history major is reading his way through the biographies of American presidents — sequentially. He just started the life history of William Henry Harrison, the ninth president who served only 32 days before dying from pneumonia.

Bower ma n i s hopi ng to chart a new course this fall as he runs a second time for Shakopee School Board.

T he 4 6 -yea r- old was ap pointed to the School Board in fall 2008 to fi ll a vacancy.

He served about a year before falling short on his election bid in November 2009.

Yet, Bowerman brings to the board something none of his three opponents have — experience.

“Having been on the board before, I fairly know the ropes,” he said.

The school district faces two main challenges in coming years: growth and funding.

Bowerman fully supports the recommendation of the facilities task force — on which he served — that recommended a second high school and realignment of middle schools.

“Managing and responding to our potential funding and properly addressing growth is a significant issue the district will face,” he said.

To ensure the district is

Ever y mor ning, Jeremy Casper hops on his bike for the 3.5-mile ride to the BlueXpress station in Southbridge. A bus commute to downtown Minneapolis and Casper is back on his bike.

This summer, the avid rider has totaled more than 1,500 miles.

Casper’s love of bicycling is eclipsed only by something he fi nds even more important — a strong education system. The 31-year-old father is running for Shakopee School Board.

One issue close to Casper’s heart is all-day kindergarten.

W hi le he understands the district is short on space, he’d like to see the option of an allday program as the district explores a future kindergarten center, as proposed by the district’s facilities task force.

Casper has mixed feelings about the task force’s proposed second high school. While he doesn’t support a mega high school, he recalls the faction his hometown of Middleton, Wis., faced when discussing a similar split.

Casper questions whether the facilities task force looked far enough out when recommending the secondary rea lig n ment. T he task force based its recommendation on en rol l ment projections through 2019-20; Casper would like to see numbers 20, 30 years out.

“I think the recommendations did a good job of looking at the immediate issues, but

He particularly loves Wampach’s restaurant in the downtown because it has the best gravy, he said. reaching all students, the board must be willing to challenge what it’s doing and consider new innovations, said Bowerman, who describes himself as analytical and collaborative.

He said he brings to the board 25 years of business experience of running multimillion-dollar companies, setting budgets and making difficult decisions.

The associate director of the Office of Technology Commercialization at the University of Minnesota also has a diverse educational background that includes a master of business administration and law degree. He said he knows how to work as a leader and team member.

Bowerman and his wife, Lesa, have two children — Shannon, a freshman at the University of Central Missouri, and Sean, a junior at

Shakopee High School. When he’s not running to his kids’ events, Bowerman likes to hunt, fly fish and golf. He’s also a voracious reader and loves anything “old,” from museums and battlefields to antiquing.

Bowerman has stayed active in Shakopee education since leaving the board, serving on the district’s curriculum advisory board, facilities task force, Citizens for Education and Shakopee Educational Endowment Foundation board.

Grateful his kids grew up in the Shakopee school system, Bowerman said serving on the School Board is a way to help ensure the district keeps its high-quality focus.

“It’s a great way for me to blend my interest in civic service and public education,” Bowerman said. “This is home. It’s a wonderful school district.”

district improve its student achievement?

First, we must rigorously examine what we are doing, challenge the status quo and identify what is or isn’t working or could work better. Examples might include: core subject curriculum review; ensuring curriculum “scope and sequence” is properly aligned internally and with state standards; exploring g raduation credit require ments or class duration/frequency for core subjects; and better uses of technology as teaching aids that today’s kids can relate to. Second, we must expect and provide support for creative and innovative approaches that teach and reach our kids. We should encourage our schools to experiment with new methods and practices, as well as apply what others are doing that seems to be effective. Third, I fi rmly believe parental support and student motivation are critical. Actively engaged parents, reinforcing educational efforts outside of school hours, contribute to excited and enthusiastic children which will lead to enhanced learning.

school and reconfi gure its secondary grade levels – two 9-12 high schools and two 6-8 middle schools. What are your thoughts on the recommendation?

I support the FTF recommendation. Enrollment projections indicate near-term capacity issues in the middle grade facilities. Initially shifting to two 7-9 schools and a sixth-grade center (later to dual 6-8, 9-12 confi gurations) a l lows the dist rict to best accommodate our growing student body within existing facilities. It minimizes disruption, maximizes current buildings, and keeps our kids in groupings that are appropriate to the curriculum for those grades. It also prepares the district for having two medium-sized high schools, which I support, as opposed to one massive high school. Most parents I’ve spoken to prefer the increased participation opportunities and smaller student body of two high schools.

The board needs to ensure that implementation of this plan is deliberate and well thought out.

A senior Web specialist at the University of Minnesota, Casper has leadership experience at the college level. While at Minnesota State University, Mankato, he served in the Student Senate and search committee for a new provost. He’s also participated in the university’s President’s Emerging Leaders Program.

Casper hopes to draw on the university’s pilot programs for inspiration in Shakopee. Pilots are a great way of testing new ideas on a tight budget, he said.

If a program positively impacts student achievement, it can be expanded on a larger scale.

“If we don’t try this stuff, how are we going to continue to improve?” he asked.

In addition to biking, Casper and his family, which includes wife, Kate, and kids, Evie, 4,

and Logan, 1, are avid travelers. A color-coded U.S. map hangs on their Shakopee townhome wall indicating all the states they’ve visited. Casper a lso enjoys woodworki ng, country music and watching television with his wife after the kids go to bed.

Casper, who moved to Shakopee in 2007, also serves on the city’s advisory transit commission and has been involved with Scott County parks development.

As a School Board member, he hopes to ensure Shakopee’s educational system is top notch, not only for his kids but all students. A main way of doing that is ensuring that board is communicating a shared vision with all stakeholders, he said.

“Our job [on the School Board] isn’t to manage the district,” Casper said. “Our job is to set a direction and lead.”

we can measure the effectiveness of the pilots and if they are successful in increasing student achievement, then we should figure out how that method could be rolled out district wide. The other thing that we need to do is to continuously look at the test scores and determine where we want to focus our priorities. Are kids that have transferred schools more likely to perform poorly on these tests? If so, do we need to focus on programs to help them adjust to their new environments? Where can we put our resources that will result in the biggest improvement in student achievement?

concerns that prevent me from fully supporting the long-term building recommendations at this time. The first concern being that the plan indicates in the fi nal year that the high schools will have excess capacity while the middle schools will be over capacity. Whether we need a third middle school building is brief ly touched upon in the report. If a third middle school is needed, how do students get split between the two high schools? For the two high schools, what is the plan for athletics? How does this affect the curriculum and student achievement?

It’s an ideal way to blend my belief in civic responsibility and a genuine interest in public education. I thoroughly enjoyed my experience on the board when I was appointed to fi ll out a term and believe I made a positive contribution.

I will bring a strong mix of business, civic and educational experiences that will be an asset to a board with a new superintendent, adding four new members and facing a series of important issues to address.

State education funding has leveled in recent years.

What priorities will you use in setting the school budget when an increase in revenue is unlikely?

I would prioritize maintaining class size targets, thereby increasing the opportunity for and quality of student-teacher interaction. I would also emphasize proven and promising new tools for and methods of successful classroom instruction, along with integrating technologies that enhance or accelerate learning. Our fi nite resources need to be focused on improving direct educational interaction. The third item I would prioritize is retaining a solid general fund reserve that prior boards worked hard to establish. Having such a reserve gives Shakopee the flexibility to smooth out the unpredictable variability in funding from sources we cannot control.

Would you support teacher-merit pay in the Shakopee School District? If yes, how would the system look? If no, why not?

Yes. The question is how best to design and implement it? Teaching is a profession, and I believe most teachers are motivated by factors other than fi nancial. However, incentives can inf luence behavior and outcomes. Any plan should learn from the successes and mistakes of other districts that have been down this path. Elements of an incentive plan that make sense to me include: 1) involving teachers in the merit criteria selection to ensure acceptance; 2) connecting extra pay to extra work (leadership roles, mentoring, special assignments); 3) smaller awards more broadly available; 4) empowering principals with authority and leeway in program design and implementation; and 5) avoid over-emphasizing this as the solution, but as part of a broader academic achievement plan.

Why are you running for Shakopee School Board?

I am running for the Shakopee School Board because there are a couple of key challenges that will face the district in the coming years. One of the issues facing the district is how to improve student achievement.

While the district continues to test at state average, we can and should be able to do better than that. As a parent with two kids under 5, I want to make sure that they, along with all the other students in the district, receive a quality education. Along with trying to improve student achievement, we have had explosive growth in our student enrollment. For taxpayers, we need to manage growth so that we are only asking them for building referendums when they are absolutely necessary.

Shakopee Public Schools continue to test at state averages on MCA-II math, reading and science exams.

How do you suggest t he district improve its student achievement?

One way that we can improve student achievement is to try new methods of teaching our students. These should be done as pilot projects where

State education funding has leveled in recent years.

What priorities will you use in setting the school budget when an increase in revenue is unlikely?

T he f i r st que st ion t h at should be asked with every budget decision is how it will i mpact ou r st udents. Wi l l this change class sizes? Will this increase student achievement? If we are funding items that have no impact on our class si zes or ou r st udent achievement, then we need to examine whether we need to continue funding that item.

I would also look at operational areas of the district, like buildings, information technology, administration, and other non-classroom functions to see if there are items that can be cut where we can then shift more money into the classroom.

The Facilities Task Force recently recommended the district build a second high school and reconfi gure its secondary grade levels – two 9-12 high schools and two 6-8 middle schools. What are your thoughts on the recommendation?

I think that the Facilities Task Force did an excellent job in identifying short-term solutions to the district’s space needs. I think the 6-8 middle school and 9-12 high school grade configuration is the right direction to head toward.

However, after reading the report multiple times, I have

Would you support teacher-merit pay in the Shakopee School District? If yes, how would the system look? If no, why not?

I would be in support of teacher-merit pay only after we first apply merit pay to the School Board and to the superintendent. As a member of the School Board, if we are going to base teacher pay on merit, then we should be leading by example and base some of our annual compensation on the district attaining annual goals. In addition any teachermerit pay should be based on the same goals that the School Board and superintendent are evaluated on.

What are the most pressing issues the district faces?

As mentioned previously, I think the issues of increasing student achievement and managing the enrollment are the most pressing issues facing the district. We are looking at the need for additional building space in the next few years. This additional space needs to be perfectly timed; too soon and taxpayers are paying for unused space, too late and we are dealing with increased class sizes. Along with managing growth, we also have the issue of increasing student achievement. Students in the district currently test at about state average.

We should be able to increase our student achievement, especially in the areas of math and science.

Matt McKeand holds the record for the shortest NCAA career.

For one play in college, the undersized lineman watched the opposing team’s running back sprint down the field for a touchdown, and that was the end of his collegiate football career.

It might not be the most flattering tidbit, but McKeand prides himself on honesty and transparency — two attributes he hopes to bring to the Shakopee School Board.

Last fall, McKeand, 37, served on the district’s facilities task force where he said he learned more about the Shakopee school system than in the 11 years he’s lived in the community.

Impressed by the quality, integrity and passion of Shakopee school leaders — and having enjoyed the lively debate — McKeand said the experience inspired him to serve in a more formal capacity.

McKeand has education in his background. His parents and a sister are teachers, and education was his fi rst major at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter. Now, his kids are just starting out in school.

“Having young kids, it’s very important to me they have the opportunity for quality education,” he said.

McKeand stands fully behind the task force’s recommendation for a second high school based on enrollment

Angela Tucker was 19 years old when she boarded her fi rst plane for Nantucket Island, where she’d spend two years as a nanny.

The experience taught the Grand Forks, N.D., native independence and reinforced her belief in the importance of children.

“Having the best interest of the kids and giving back to them and helping them be successful is really where my heart is,” Tucker said.

Tucker, 36, came to Shakopee following the 1997 Grand Forks flooding. Her sister lived in town and she had previously worked su m mers at Valleyfair.

A fter marrying, Tucker lived a couple years in Eden Prairie. But with a young son in a wheelchair, she and her husband decided they need a one-story home and moved back across the river.

Since those first days in Shakopee, Tucker has been active in the Shakopee school system, volunteering in a fi rstgrade classroom before her son was born.

Moving back to Shakopee in 2005, she joined the Special Education Parent Advisory Council, a group she’s chaired for three years. The experience led to other district positions with the Curriculum Advisory Board, Strategic Planning Task Force and Facilities Task Force.

After the task force decided it didn’t want a mega high school, members agreed a second high school was the most reasonable and cost-effective way of addressing projected growth. As a School Board member, McKeand said he would continue to look for ways to provide “highquality education at the lowest possible cost.”

“The sound judgment and key drivers that I would bring to each decision are balancing quality and cost,” he said. “We want to provide an excellent education opportunity for our kids, and we have to make sure we’re mindful of the budget.”

McKeand and his wife, Greta, have two young children — Maren, 6, and Callum, 3 — that keep them busy. McKeand is a big Gophers fan, particularly football, for which he has season tickets. He also enjoys watching television and

movies, reading biographies, traveling the Brainerd lakes area and spending time with extended family.

McKeand, who works in talent management for the global human resources fi rm, Accenture, describes himself as an extrovert with a hands-on approach to helping people reach their goals. He’s interested in what drives people and enjoys the intellectual challenge of problem solving.

He’s very excited about the opportunity to serve and have an impact on ensuring Shakopee continues to offer highquality education.

“Having a robust and wellregarded school system really helps a community,” McKeand said. “Not only for growing together, but helping property values and helping business want to invest and helping people want to move into the Shakopee area.”

Longer term: Manage class sizes so that we not only hit district-wide targets, but that our newer teachers have smaller groups to teach. Also, increase focus on pre-K education in order to increase school readiness.

school or if we preferred two mid-sized schools. The group decided, almost unanimously, that the smaller high schools enabled more opportunities for students to be involved in several different activities. Also, it was surprising to fi nd out that building one new high school was cheaper than many of the other options, which would have required building new buildings AND significantly adding on to existing buildings where possible.

Why are you running for Shakopee School Board?

I would like to serve the district as I am passionate about education and am committed to making decisions aimed at improving the quality of education in the most cost-effective manner.

Shakopee Public Schools continue to test at state averages on MCA-II math, reading and science exams.

How do you suggest t he district improve its student achievement?

Right away: Engage parents in frank and open discussions about their chi ld’s per formance. Formulate a plan for improvement with the teachers, parents, and students that explores all available options (before/after school programs, tutoring, etc).

performance should be part of the merit criteria, but standardized test scores should not be the only measure. The latter leads to “teaching to the test,” over-weighs a snapshot view of learning, and fails to account for growth in student learning.

What are the most pressing issues the district faces?

First, successfully managing our growing student body.

That includes facilities to house

State education funding has leveled in recent years.

What priorities will you use in setting the school budget when an increase in revenue is unlikely?

My main priority would be to make sure that money is dedicated to improving the quality of education, either through managing class size, rewarding and inspiring teacher performance, having the correct amount of administration to support and direct teachers, and then supporting extra curricular activities as well.

The Facilities Task Force recently recommended the district build a second high school and reconfi gure its secondary grade levels – two 9-12 high schools and two 6-8 middle schools. What are your thoughts on the recommendation?

As a member of that task force and one of the people who presented the recommendation to the board, I feel strongly that it is the best and most cost-effective solution to the issue of our significant growth in student population. The biggest question was whether we wanted one “mega” high

them, staff to instruct them and prog ramming to challenge and educate them. In a sense, Shakopee is fortunate to be dealing with a growing student population as opposed to the reverse. But it must be proactively managed by a board making well-informed and practical decisions. Second is annual budgeting. Like all districts, Shakopee receives most of its funding from the state, a process proven to be fraught with shifts, delays and unfunded mandates. The board can’t change that but it can appropriately plan and properly allocate limited resources to

Would you support teacher-merit pay in the Shakopee School District? If yes, how would the system look? If no, why not?

Yes, as long as the merit-pay program was designed to rate and reward the whole-picture teacher performance, not just based upon test scores. Test scores are certainly an indicator of teacher performance, but it is important that there is room for additional input from principals, fellow teachers, parents and other administrators.

What are the most pressing issues the district faces?

Managing significant (if not explosive) growth in student population and all of the challenges that brings — facilities, new faculty and administration, etc.

Achieving higher student performance while funding is uncertain.

prioritize student learning and academics. One strategy I strongly support is a solid general fund reserve to provide the district with needed annual budgeting f lexibility. Third is finding new and creative solutions to boost academic achievement. The board should set goals and provide resources for administration and teachers that aids struggling students, but without undermining the educational opportunities of the larger student body who are doing well, including continuing to provide increasingly challenging offerings for students who are high performing.

Angela Tucker came to Shakopee originally in 1997, as a transplant from the Grand Forks, N.D., flooding. Her family moved back in 2005. forward to the district’s volunteer flyer.

“I just check every box and hope I get a phone call,” she said.

The advisory positions have taught Tucker a lot about education, the school district and city, she said. She’s running for School Board because she’d like to help the district move ahead with the Facilities Task Force recommendations, which she believes will help maintain small class sizes.

She’d also like to ensure the district continues to offer equal opportunities for what she describes “the underdog kids,” who may not have anyone championing their cause.

An accounting manager at C.H. Robinson in Eden Prairie, Tucker has experience managing people, working with difficult personalities, budgeting and making tough decisions.

Her employees, she said, would

Tucker and her husband, James, love to spend time as a family, often walking around the Mall of America where their 13-year-old son, Lukas, learned to walk. They also enjoy spending time at Valleyfair and traveling to see family in North Dakota and Indiana.

With her son’s special needs — he doesn’t speak — Tucker has had to be particularly active in his education. She even helped bring an adaptive soccer program for elementary kids to Shakopee with the Shakopee Soccer Association.

While she’s advocating for him, she figured, why not use her skills and time to help all district students as a member of the School Board?

“Every parent with a child with special needs can do anything,” she said.

why we are not making better strides in MCA testing. I believe it’s not just about the scores. There may be some underlying issues that are creating inefficiencies and as a district we need to look at all avenues to see where improvement can be made. I would like to see some further efforts made on positive student engagement and parent involvement. If students are not engaged and parents not involved I believe we will not see much improvement in student achievement.

can support this growing community. In the end we came up with the recommendations of two junior highs and two high schools. I’m excited about fewer transitions down the road and more opportunities for the students that two schools might provide. More building capacity will also allow for the district to maintain low class sizes, which has always been a concern.

The current board has done a great job in watching the finances of the district. As a new board member I will work with the current board members to continue to ensure we are being fi scally responsibly as a district. I have experience in budget management and accounting which will be beneficial to the board. In these economic times we really need to watch our pennies and make tough decisions.

Would you support teacher-merit pay in the Shakopee School District? If yes, how would the system look? If no, why not?

Merit pay is a Catch-22. In theory it might sound like it would make sense. Pay more for those great teachers who a re produci ng higher test scores. However, I would worry that cooperation between teachers might be comprised.

Shakopee teachers are great at working together and collaborating on the issues to find resolutions. Merit pay might create a more “I’m out for myself only” environment and this wou ld u ltimately not be in the best interest of the students. The other challenging aspect in merit pay is monitoring the achievement.

We would need a solid system in place that would be used across the board where it can’t be comprised by dishonesty to achieve more pay. I’m not completely opposed to merit pay and would be open to listening to a solid plan that offers statistics that is actually shows student achievement improvement.

What are the most pressing issues the district faces?

Student achievement; building capacities now and for the future; and being a fiscally responsible district.

“We don’t have a quarter, much less a quarter of a million dollars sitting around,� said Scott County Chair Tom Wolf, who toured the house last month. “I understand it can never be replaced, but how many people would visit? If were are just keeping it up to keep it up and nobody sees it, what is it worth?

T he Scott Cou nty Pa rks Department wanted to at least cover the home with a pole barn until money can be found to strip the building back to its pioneer day condition, but Commissioner Dave Menden of Shakopee doesn’t see the value in saving the home.

Menden said he heard from county employees who think if there’s money to cover up the house, the county should have the means to provide raises. “And I might have to agree,� he said.

This is the oldest log home that can be found at its original location in the county, said Scott County Historical Society Director Kathy Klehr. Even more spectacular is it was occupied by the same family all its years. “I have serious doubts we’d ever f ind a place like this again,� said Klehr. “This is an opportunity that once you remove the cabin, you’re probably never going to have again.�

The cost of restoring the house to its original condition and installing necessary mechanical systems and a dry-pipe sprinkler system is estimated to be $ 226,788. It could cost about $ 85,000 less if the 1930s addition is torn off and the home is restored with minimal modern upgrades.

The wood-shingled roof is growing with moss and the stucco is sagging, but an architectural analysis found the house in fair condition. “The stucco has actually preserved the logs underneath,� said Jed Becher, who was on the design committee. “It looks terrible, but structurally it’s really sound and the interior looks really good,� said Klehr.

Park planners say the home, once restored as a pioneer-style cabin with the stucco removed, could be rented to overnight lodgers. It could also be utilized for interpretive park programming, similar to the Landing in Shakopee. “It’s not just that it’s neat and old — it tells a lot of different stories,� said Klehr.

T he recom mendation to preserve the home came from a citizens design committee that developed master plans for both Doyle-Kennefick and Cedar Lake Farm Regional Park. “We all felt pretty strongly about preserving the house at Doyle and the barn at Cedar Lake Farm,� said Becher.

W hile Cedar Lake Farm Regional Park also has a farmhouse (thought to be bui lt around the turn of the century), the citizen committee considered Doyle’s the jewel and proposed restoring the Cedar Lake house only if private

funding can be found.

Doyle also has a 1943 dairy barn fashioned from local oak trees that is in fair condition; however, Cedar Lake’s has more character and could be immediately used for weddings.

I n t he ne a r f ut u r e, t he county foresees only limited development of its three regional parks, largely trails and renovation or stabilization of existing structures that would be funded with park dedication dollars or regional and state funds. Most of the development plans for the parks are more than a decade off.

Wol f a nd Com missioner Barbara Marschall of Prior Lake both would like to see the log home at Doyle restored, but don’t believe the county has the funds to do so. However, they are open to stabilizing the structure with a reusable pole barn until a decision is reached on the home’s future. “It’s certainly historical, but it’s going to take some major dollars to restore and preserve,� said Marschall.

Perhaps outside dollars and volunteer carpenters can be

found to restore the Doyle house, said Wolf. “I don’t want to use too much property tax money to fi x these things up,� he said.

But Menden said if people want to see the Doyle house preserved, they should start with stepping up to pay for its stabilization.

Demolishing the building would cost almost as much as the estimated cost ($ 31,767) of covering the house with a pole barn and minimal steps to make it weather-tight and vandal-resistant. It would take another $12,000 to really secure the place. “There is a great concern it may be burned down from kids goofi ng around,� said Becher, a Web manager for the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources who lives about a mile from the park.

Becher believes the log home is an opportunity the county should not pass up. He said the state’s metro cabins are booked all summer long. How much more popular would an historic one be? “It’d be so cool to be able to stay at a log cabin — it’s a big one too,� he said.

Menden said he loves parkland and the committee did good work, but the county has to be “realistic� about what can be accomplished from the master plans. “I agree with them.

There’s just that one little issue called money.�

Summary of findings of citizen design team CEDAR LAKE REGIONAL PARK (OPERATIONAL) Picnicking and group camping are already offered at this for mer private day resor t, which has volunteer caretakers during the summer. The vision for this park builds on family use of the waterfront and the history of the site as a farm.

Recommendations include an off-leash dog park, bringing picnicking closer to the lake, improving beachfront with piers and boat slips, minor upgrades to the existing pavilion and restoration of drained wetlands.

An inside view of the original log home, built in 1861 (with additions in 1863 and in the 1930s). A citizen design committee wants the building mothballed to prevent further damage from weather or vandals.

This former family farm near St. Catherine and Lennon lakes boasts “stellar wetland habit and natural resources.� It has three modern houses, currently rented out, and the origi-

nal Civil War-era log home.

Envisioned is a 1,200-acre park with horseback riding, a campground, retreat center and pioneer cabin. “The majority of this is extremely longterm,� Freeman said.

There is a lot of interest for Doyle to have equestrian trails.

A public horseback riding facility, possibly run by a private business, is envisioned.

Planners would like to strip back the original homestead log home back to its pioneer days for overnight lodging. The barn, while not as prized as Cedar Lake’s, is recommended to be stabilized for future use.

The hayloft could be renovated for a three-season facility for weddings, whi le the lower level could serve as a warming horse.

Short-term (about $200,000 over next 10 years): stabilize barn and log home (2012 capital budget); soft surface trail loop construction and road stabilization.

Future: Horseback riding facility; primitive camping; retreat center with camper cabins in the northern area of the park; canoe/kayak launch; nature center; mix of trails.

BLAKELY BLUFFS SEARCH AREA With a vision of establishing a regional park reserve here, but no dollars for buying land, the county is interested in partnering with the Minnesota DNR on land acquisition.

The DNR is converting a state wayside rest into a wildlife management area. Foreclosed

properties in the search area are available for purchase. “There are funding opportunities by collaborating that the county wouldn’t have on its own,� said county Parks Manager Mark Themig.

The county would rely on outside sources, such as state Legacy funds and regional park capital bonding dollars, for acquisition.

Vision: 2,164 acres (2,000 bluff; 700 agricultural).

Restore bluff and ravine areas; create core habitat area.

Provide scenic views, connection to the Blakeley hamlet and Minnesota River.

REGIONAL TRAILS Two regional park trail systems are envisioned, with Scott County West more likely to be completed in the near future.

Scott County West Reg iona l T ra i l will connect regional parks and follow existing roads from MurphyHanrehan Park Reserve south of Savage to the Minnesota River in Shakopee. Segments of the 16.5 mile envisioned trail already exist and there are pieces that can be completed as roads are improved.

Spring Lake Regional Trail is “more of a trail preservation opportunity,� explains A ndy Hi ngeveld, a cou nty planner. Its completion could be decades off and would cross Scott County largely off-road, from Spring Lake Regional Park through Jordan to the Minnesota River.

Raising awareness about breast cancer October is National Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and southwestarea readers were asked to share their stories of hope and support.

The best of those submissions are printed here.

Although breast cancer death rates have been going down – probably as a result of early detection and better treatment, according to the American Cancer Society – breast cancer is still the second leading cause of cancer death in women, behind only lung cancer.

The chance of a woman having invasive breast cancer sometime during her life is a little less than 1 in 8, the Cancer Society estimates.

Right now there are more than 2.5 million breast cancer survivors in the United States. If you would like to know more about the disease, consult www.cancer.org.

The bravest person you could ever meet

Love, support helped in fight for her life Five years and a few dozen days ago I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Those words were shocking and for a moment, I considered my life being over, but just as fast as the thought came, it was gone.

I went into fight mode, the most aggressive fight of my nonconfrontational life. I won’t lie, it was hard and it was painful and there were times when I didn’t know how I would make it through the next treatment or surgery, but it was also one of the most amazing experiences of my life. I realized how strong I really am, how much I am loved and my relationship with God. And those are all incredible and enough. But another amazing and unexpected experience was the group of amazing women I met. We call ourselves creatively, Pink Ribbon Sisters. We were all considered young in breast cancer terms, had tried other types of support, and were all searching for a group that we felt could r el ate to ou r u n ique ne e d s.

One by one, through a friend of a friend, we formed a group and met once a month, usually with a bottle of wine and lots of snacks.

Yes, we talked about our cancer journey, but along the way, we formed an amazing bond of friendship and five years later, we still get together as often as possible and hardly talk about cancer.

When I look way into the future, I see a group of beautiful women who once survived cancer, but still get together, talk about life, love and friendship, drink some wine and have lots of snacks.

It was a beautiful day in May when I was on my way to work and said to myself, “Life is good.” I had dealt with some medical issues the last five years and had fi nally recovered.

But, on July 14, 2010, my life turned upside down and changed forever. I had breast cancer. I remember clearly thinking that I had spoken too soon and God had another plan for me.

My faith kept me in check, but in my private moments I couldn’t help but wonder if I’d be OK. After having surgery and meeting with my oncologist, I learned that chemotherapy would be my best option of the cancer not returning.

Chemo was rough on me, but as I lay in bed sick, I prayed that something good would come of this. I fi nished chemo at the end of November and radiation at the end of January 2011.

The cancer did change my life, and something good did come. I am a much stronger person than I ever was before and I have gained an unbelievable amount of trust in myself and my creator.

You can’t change circumstances, but you can change your attitude.

Our daughter, Diane’s 44th birthday was last week. However, breast cancer took her life Feb. 27, 2010.

Diane was the bravest person you could ever meet.

We b e l i e ve G o d g av e h e r extra faith and courage to cont i nu e t o c a r e for her husband and three teenage sons for the four years she struggled with her disease and the treatment of it. She lived long Diane enough to fulfi ll Hutchins her dream of seeing her oldest son enter college and pursue the love of music that they shared.

Breast cancer robbed our daughter of the joys of seeing her children grow up, have their own families, and becoming a grandmother.

Our daughter’s only goal in life was to be a loving mother. She had no interest in working outside the home; just taking kids back and forth to school and encouraging them to excel academically and participate in activities.

Now, her sons are trying to adjust to meeting the goals, jointly created with their mother, without her daily encouragement. We pray for the families that have gone through this same suffering and grief. Until the cure for breast cancer is found parents will continue to face the sadness of outliving our children.

Staying positive keeps Mom close

I had always gone in for my yearly mammogram. Two years ago, the radiologist recommended that I have an MRI due to my family history and the density, making it hard to see everything on a mammogram. I was in for a lump (cyst) in my right breast one month later. Everything was fi ne; it was a cyst.

Six months later, I discovered another lump. That same day, they did an MRI. I received a phone call from my doctor indicating that there was a suspicious mass in my right breast. They recommended an MRI biopsy. At 2 :30 p.m. the following day, I received the phone call letting me know that I had breast cancer. While this was not the news I wanted to receive, I felt blessed with the support of family and friends. They feel it was caught early, and I met with the surgeon right away. We decided on a lumpectomy and 33 treatments of radiation. We are blessed to have the technology that we do today. It

Big Al wears a pink bracelet. Not the typical accessory that adorns the wrist of a man’s man. Similar to the countless rubber bands on the market today, his is embossed in big burgundy letters with the name of my memoir, Beyond the Pink Moon.

I had them made as a party favor for a breast cancer luncheon and book signing last October. I didn’t notice when Big Al slipped his on until one evening at the dinner table when I glanced over and saw it overlapping the yellow Lance Armstrong bracelet he has worn for years. You see, Big Al is not a fad kind of guy.

Much like the wedding band he has never taken off since I placed it on his finger 26 years ago, when he chooses to wear something it holds great meaning for him.

Long after everyone, including me, removed their Beyond the Pink Moon bands, Big Al’s remains steadfast on his wrist. When I asked him one day why on earth he was still

I lost my mom to breast cancer two and a half years ago. Some days, it feels like just yesterday. There was (and is) so much more I wanted to share with her: My wedding day, cherry tomatoes from my garden, the birth of my fi rst child. I found myself holding my breath and feeling the ache in my heart. I had to make a conscious decision: Do I feel sad about tomorrow and mad about yesterday? Or do I live life in the present and pay attention to the good things happening right now?

I chose to be positive. I chose to live in the present. That does not mean I don’t miss my mom; there will never be a day when I don’t miss her. But with this attitude, I don’t have a chance to dwell on the things that could’ve been, and that is something I will never regret.

Sometimes, when I’m having a hard time staying positive, I pay more attention to my surroundings – the birds, the blooming flowers, the cool breeze – and I put my face to the sun and feel the warmth of my mom’s love shining down from Heaven, and then it feels like she never really left at all.

Burdens lifted by others’ TLC In February 2005, I discovered a small, hard lump on my breast.

I am a true procrastinator, why my husband compensates for by being diligent on my behalf. For this I am usually annoyed, but ultimately grateful. Within two weeks of discover, I was biopsied for cancer. I received my results – positive – and scheduled for a mastectomy.

I should have been terrified, but I believe shock and denial numbs some of the fear in a manner that allows us the ability to process an overwhelming amount of feelings and life-altering events such as chemotherapy, hair loss, reconstructive surgery, etc.

What I discovered in the pro-

cess, which I wasn’t expecting, was that all of those burdens could be lifted off me by the tender loving care I received from others. It’s what helps survivors to survive for however long we’re intended to, with renewed strength, stronger faith and restored appreciation for others and life itself.

It also creates a desire to pay it forward, to become kinder and empathetic toward others.

Everyone can make a difference, no matter how big or small.

We all have something to offer one another. Never underestimate the power of giving.

Vicky Gaughran Prior Lake

Five years ago, the Shakopee Valley News published a story about Jan Aument, who was undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.

Aument’s son, then 11, and his friends surprised her by shaving their heads “so I wouldn’t have to be alone and feel sad anymore.” Aument, who has been released from her oncologist’s care and said “life is good,” gathered the boys for another photo. They are, in both photos, from left: Tanner Graff, Jan Aument, Alec Aument and Curtis Sager.

I unfortunately lost my mother to breast cancer 17 years ago. She was an incredible wife, mother, sister and daughter. Back 17 years ago, the knowledge and awareness was not as available as it is today, unfortunately. My mother, Patricia Anne Curielli, knew that she had a lump and was too scared and worried to have it checked out. She had five children, and my father traveled extensively, so she did not have it checked out for 18 months. When it was found, they immediately had her into surgery to have a double mastectomy.

Amazingly, it had already metastasized into her bones, unbeknownst to us. She was such a fighter that she had about four good years with us.

There were ups and downs along the way, but the journey was such a good fight.

My parents moved to Prior Lake when I was 19. My mother asked my father, John, to move to the lake. We had been a Burnsville family growing up. My father said to my mother, “Pat, this house is almost paid off, really? You want to move to the lake?”

Of course my father agreed, and they moved into the Harbor in 1994 where I lived for two years before I was married. I thank my mother for

bringing us to Prior Lake for many reasons. We have loved the people, the lake and St. Michael’s School, where our children go. There is not a day that goes by that I do not miss my mother, Patricia. But, I am so happy to have the memories and the vision she had for our family to be here in Prior Lake.

An even worse diagnosis than my own for cancer Sept. 24, 2010 changed my life and the lives of my family and friends forever. To me, the word CANCER always meant a death sentence because Mother passed away years ago from breast cancer. The good news was treatment had improved immensely so I started to look at this as just another illness that needed to be treated!

The hardest part was telling my kids as my dad, their grandfather, had just passed away the month before. The preliminary diagnosis for me was a biopsy; at that time I was told it was cancer. The lab results would be in on Monday. My husband Gary and I agreed to wait until Monday to tell the kids, hoping that the preliminary result would be wrong.

My daughter, the strong, takecontrol young lady she is, was making plans on how we should proceed with this. My son was more emotional and all he could say was, “I love you and you will get through this.”

Eight months after I was diagnosed with breast cancer my 27-year-old daughter was diagnosed with breast cancer. Anyone who is a mother knows this news is much harder than your own diagnosis.

life and care. My heart feels so warm to know there are such great people in my life and in this world!

Becky Gesswein Becky Gesswein, a Shakopee native, resides in Richfield. Her mother is Linda Reed Thompson.

Grateful to be here In December 2009, I turned 40 years old. I decided not to have a birthday party, as that spring I would be finishing my master’s degree and I thought a graduation party would be the ultimate payoff.

In January 2010, I went in for a routine physical, at which time a lump was found in my right breast. I was overwhelmed, scared and fearful I wouldn’t see my children grow up.

On March 3, 2010, I had a mastectomy; from May through August I did chemotherapy; September, I had reconstructive surgery; and just last May I had a hysterectomy.

I have three children and a wonderful husband, but all I could think of was that my life was over.

“Why me?” went through my head over and over. Now I am 21 months cancer-free, and my world seems to have fi nally gotten back to normal. I never did get my graduation party, which is an example that life is short, so take advantage of every day. People always say that, but do they live that motto? I do! I am so lucky to be able to tell my story, and I am thankful for every day.

Support has warmed this daughter’s heart Nearly every person you encounter has a story about breast cancer.

With three generations of breast cancer, my family is no exception.

With my grandmother diagnosed at age 41, mother diagnosed at age 57 and my diagnosis at age 27, we are not short on personal stories.

Unless you’ve gone through it yourself, you will never know how each day living with cancer feels.

Those closest to me — my boyfriend, mom and dad — were my primary support. They were the ones I would allow to listen to my cries when the glass was half-empty and the ones who made me realize how lucky I am and made that glass feel full again.

Not only was my family affected by my diagnosis, but friends and coworkers were too. People from every touch-point in my life were concerned with my well-being, continually telling me and my parents that I was top of mind in their prayers, thinking positively and always asking what they could do to help. The health care professionals have also made a personal investment in my

was growing, I fi nally decided to see my doctor. Within days, I was diagnosed with breast cancer and was beginning a journey that changed my life forever. Early detection saved my life!

Even though I had eight chemo treatments, six surgeries and 35 days of radiation, I had a positive experience with breast cancer. From the very beginning, I felt that God wanted me to educate others about what cancer can and cannot do to a family.

Having breast cancer has given me many, many opportunities to help other women who are traveling on their journey. One way I do that is with a breast cancer ministry at the Church of St. Michael, called the Pink Prayer Warriors.

Our ministry will help in any way we can to support the “warrior” during treatment, whether it’s rides to doctor appointments or sending them an encouraging card. We stay in touch with them all the way through their journey. But most of all, we offer prayers.

I strive each day to be a positive role model for those who have been touched by cancer.

AYP continued from page 1

Shakopee Superintendent Rod Thompson compared the feat to David and Goliath, a story of an underdog overcoming the odds.

“It’s that sense of pride you have even when t he ca rds are stacked against you, you can come out on top,” he said.

“That’s a real positive thing.”

Sun Path Elementary also made AYP. The school missed in 2010 but did not face consequences because it does not receive federal Title I dollars.

Overall, seven of Shakopee’s nine buildings failed to meet AYP in 2011.

More than half of Minnesota’s 2,075 schools earning AYP status did not meet academic targets for 2011. Statewide, 1,056 schools failed to meet AYP, up a handful of schools from 2010.

AYP is the measure the state uses to determine whether schools and districts are making adequate progress toward the No Child Left Behind’s goal that all children be proficient in math and reading by 2014.

Results are determined by MCA testing.

A school is marked as “not making AYP” if just one subg roup of students does not meet established criteria on the MCA exam. Schools are scored on student performance in areas related to ethnicity, limited-English proficiency, special education and free/ reduced lunch services.

SHAKOPEE SCHOOLS Pearson Elementary, whose status will transfer to Jackson

www.shakopeenews.com | Shakopee Valley News Elementary, failed to meet AYP after a one-year reprieve in 2010. The school just barely missed, falling in one subgroup. Schools must meet AYP two consecutive years to be taken off the penalty list.

A Title I school, Jackson joins Sweeney in the corrective action stage, where schools are required to offer supplemental services and provide parents the option to transfer their children to a Shakopee elementary meeting AYP. The district will send out letters Friday offering Jackson and Sweeney families the option of transferring their student to Sun Path at the start of the spring semester, said Shakopee Teaching and Learning Director Jayne Gibson.

Shakopee Junior High failed to meet AYP for a fi fth consecutive year. The school had five subpopulations miss their targets in math: Hispanic, black, limited English proficiency (LEP), special education and free/reduced lunch. Hispanic and LEP students also missed in reading.

Missing for a fourth consecutive year were Shakopee High School, Shakopee Middle School and Red Oak Elementary.

Red Oak is a good example of the fickleness of AYP, as schools are labeled failing when just a few subgroups struggle.

The elementary had 82 percent of its students meet reading proficiency — third highest among district elementary schools — yet the school missed AYP in four subgroups.

It’s disappointing to be labeled as failing even though the school is above the state average, said Principal Mitch

Perrine. “We really feel like we’re working extremely hard at meeting the needs of those kids,” he said.

Red Oak is further individualizing its interventions this year as each classroom teacher develops a learning plan for at least two at-risk readers.

The teachers will track the intervention’s success and collaborate with special education or English language learners teachers to ensure everyone is on the same page, Perrine said.

Overall, Shakopee elementary buildings performed better in math while the secondary buildings had higher reading scores.

Elementary principals suggested the district’s new math curriculum may have helped boost student achievement.

Shakopee Middle School made strides in its reading performance in 2011.

Last year, all students failed to meet state targets as only 66 percent of students were deemed proficient. In 2011, 76 percent were proficient.

On the f lip side, the middle school saw its math performance dip 20 percentage points.

Statewide, math proficiency was down in 2011 due to the new MCA-III exam. The state recalibrated AYP to ref lect the change, otherwise more schools would likely have not met AYP. Eagle Creek Elementary missed AYP for a second year.

The school missed in only one subgroup, special-education reading.

Eagle Creek was not a Title I school in 2011 but will be in 2012 after the district redistributed students last spring. Four of the five Shakopee elementary schools were affected by the attendance boundary change, which moved one-third of district elementary students.

Shakopee schools will not have to wait until the 2012 MCAs to create a picture of school’s strengths and weaknesses, Gibson said. The district will be comparing fall M A P data to past years to better understand the student breakdown.

While AYP often gets a bad rap, Gibson said the data identify areas — whether content or subpopulation — the district could dig deeper and focus in more closely.

“We say, and we believe, that we are meeting each student where they’re at and taking them from there,” she said.

“These types of things really point that out to us.”

W hi le Sweeney plans to celebrate its achievement of meeting AYP with a school assembly Thursday morning, Principal Orlowsky said there’s still plenty of work ahead.

Sweeney plans to continue its targeted approach toward test specifications and standards to ensure each student is making progress, he said.

“We talk a lot about the negatives of AYP and the broken system, but the positive result is when you put a group of dedicated staff with positive administrators, they can overcome the odds,” Thompson said.

T h e i nt e r s e c t i o n s e e s around 7,700 vehicles pass over it each day, according to a Minnesota Department of Transportation traffic volume study from 2010.

Now that the roundabout is in the center of the intersection, drivers are forced to slow down. The roundabout speed limit is 15 mph. The Savage Police Department has a mobile speed trailer that is placed beside one of the roads leading up to the intersection to remind drivers approaching it to slow down.

Tony Winiecki, the traffic engineer for Scott County, referred to the roundabout retrospectively as “a successful safety improvement.”

Winiecki said traffic moves t h rou g h t he i ntersec tion smoothly, whereas with a traffic light it does not.

In fact, traffic flow was the one thing a local business owner said he appreciates most about the roundabout.

“It’s nice to know you’re not going to get stuck there at a traffic light when there are no other cars on the road,”

Von Bank-Ebensteiner

said Bill Terwey, who owns a sports cards business downtown on 123rd Street West.

Scott County started entertaining the idea of a roundabout at the busy intersection as a way to utilize a federal highway safety grant of $770,400 that was secured in 2005 to make improvements at County Road 16 and Lynn Avenue/Glendale Road. The cost of the roundabout was about $1 million, with the city of Savage making up what wasn’t covered by the federal grant money.

Savage City Councilwoman Christine Kelly, who was quoted in a 2008 edition of the Pacer exclaiming, “Oh, heavens,” when the idea of a roundabout was announced, said as she and other people have grown accustomed to it she has heard positive comments from the public.

“There was some concern about whether or not that was the appropriate traffic control for that intersection,” Kelly said. “We knew it would be new and dif ferent, and it would take people awhile to adjust, but I have heard from people who opposed the project but now comment how smoothly the traffic flows.”

Rallying for championship Team wins first tennis title in school history

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

In the past 13 month s, Shakopee has dominated the Missota Conference to the tune of eight conference championships.

Make that nine as of Wednesday last week.

Not only did the Shako pee girls tennis team win the school’s ninth conference title in the past 13 months but it made school history.

The Shakopee girls tennis team defeated Red Wing 4-3 to clinch at least a share of the Missota Conference title on Wednesday. The Sabers won the title outright when they defeated Northfield 6 -1 the next day.

That title is the fi rst for the girls tennis program at Shakopee High School.

“It was very exciting,” head coach Susan Allen said.

Not only did they win their fi rst title but they did it in dramatic fashion.

The Sabers and Red Wing were tied at 3-3 with only the

No. 1 doubles match remaining.

The two teams in that match split the first sets and were playing a deciding third set.

Red Wing started off strong and led 4-1 against Shakopee’s team of Kristina Worm and Sam Root.

Worm and Root rallied to win the final five games to win the match 5-7, 6-2, 6-4 and clinch the title for the Sabers.

“They [Worm and Root] started playing with confidence and I think the other team got a little rattled,” Allen said.

That was the only win Shakopee got in the doubles competition as Red Wing won at No. 2 and 3 doubles, but it was all it needed.

Shakopee won three of the four singles matches against Red Wing.

Haley Lickfold won 6-0, 6-0 at No. 2 singles while Taylor Koenen won 6-3, 6-0 at No. 3 singles.

Getting the third singles point for Shakopee was Dannick Boyogueno at No. 4 singles as she won 6-2, 6-1.

That win pushed Shakopee’s record to 5-1 in conference play and got them only a tie for the title.

The Shakopee girls cross country team has had a great start to the season.

The Sabers have fi nished in the top 10 in every meet they’ve entered this year.

They fi nally reached the top when they ran to a big win at the Burnsville Invit ation a l l a st T hu rsd ay afternoon.

Sha kopee placed t h ree runners in the top 10, four in the top 15 and didn’t have a runner finish below 60th place.

Junior Maria Hauger won again as she ran a 14 minutes, 2.6 seconds to win by 55 seconds.

Hauger’s first place was big for the Sabers but they won the meet because their next three runners all fi nished in the top 15.

Junior Winona Rachel continues to have a great fall as she finished fourth with a time of 14:59.1. In six meets this season, Rachel has fi n-

ished in the top 10 in each.

Seventh-grader Tess Misgen ran a 15:47.4 to fi nish in eighth place.

Junior Alli Lynch bounced back from being sick two weeks ago to fi nish 15th with a time of 16:13.8.

Eighth-g rader Madelyn Leier finished 31st followed by senior Anna Neu in 41st and sophomore Allyson Walker in 60th place.

The Sabers scored 59 points to top the second-place team, Owatonna, by 37 points.

BOYS The Saber boys finished 10th in the 12-team Burnsville Invite.

Senior Aaron Wood earned a top-20 fi nish with his time of 17:49.4. That placed him in 20th.

He was followed by freshman Bryon Olfert’s 18:07.9, which gave him 30th position.

Eighth-grader Kyle Rachel fi nished 50th with a time of 18:32.3.

Allen Lynch was 59th followed by eighth-grader Alex Easton in 71st, seventh-grader Gavin Menning in 76th and sophomore Nathan Coleman in 77th.

The Shakopee volleyball team pushed its win streak to five games on Monday as it defeated Minnetonka at home in four sets.

Those five wins helped push the Sabers’ record to 16-2 on the season and helped them stay ranked in the top five in the most recent statewide poll.

T he match was tight throughout with neither team able to get momentum to stay with them for an extended period.

That led to some very tight sets, and Shakopee was able to pull three of them out at the end to win 25-17, 22-25, 26-24, 25-22.

That win came after the Sabers beat New Prague and Class 2A’s third-ranked team Belle Plaine in straight sets.

Against the Trojans, Shakopee had an incredible hitting night as it won 25-18, 25-22, 25-13.

SHAKOPEE FOOTBALL

Near perfect game Conference title on the line Friday

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

The Shakopee football team played its best game of the year in dismantling New Prague last Friday night.

The Sabers did just about everything right as they cruised to a 48-14 victory.

That win sets up a showdown for the Missota Conference lead Friday when Shakopee travels to face Holy Angels.

Both teams are 5-0 and are tied for fi rst in the conference, meaning this game will go a long way to deciding the conference champion.

Before the Holy Angels game though, Shakopee looked really impressive in their win against New Prague.

“This was our best statistical game of the year,” head coach Jody Stone said. “I guess we have to be happy and impressed with it because it was our best game so far.”

The Sabers rolled up 509 yards in the game, including 161 in the air.

air was.

Not only did they get yards through the air but they made their completions count.

They completed only 6-of-11 passes but three of them went for a touchdown.

Jordan Gunhus caught two of the touchdown passes and Matt Conrad had the other one.

Conrad’s touchdown pass came on a fourth and eight and went for 48 yards just before halftime to give the Sabers a 21-6 lead.

Senior Zak Hof fman did most of the damage on the ground for the Sabers as he rushed for 126 yards on 19 carries and a touchdown.

Gunhus and Connor Neal adde d touchdow n s on t he ground for the Sabers.

The only negative to come out of the game is that New Prague scored its first touchdown when

the Sabers went for it on fourth down and fumbled the ball, which was returned for a touchdown by the Trojans.

The only touchdown the Sabers defense gave up came in the fourth quarter with most of the starters pulled.

“They moved the ball a little bit but we didn’t give up much,” Stone said.

CONFERENCE SHOWDOWN On Friday, Shakopee will travel to Richfield to take on Holy Angels, the eighth-ranked team in Class 4A. Shakopee is the eighth-ranked team in Class 5A. The Stars are 5-0 after having defeated Farmington 35-7 last week.

“The winner has the inside track for the conference title,” Stone said. “They control their own destiny.”

Stone said the Stars are a different team compared to last year’s squad that lost to Shakopee 62-28.

“They have speed and a lot of it,” Stone said. “We are going to have to contain them and keep them between the tackles.”

Of fensively, Shakopee is going to have to contend with senior defensive end Brett Pierce.

Pierce is considered a Division I recruit but Stone isn’t too worried about him.

“He’s going to make plays

but we aren’t too concerned,” Stone said.

The game begins at 7 p.m. at Holy Angels.

SHAKOPEE GIRLS SWIMMING

Two more wins Swim team pushes win streak to three

BY TODD ABELN tabeln@swpub.com

After struggling to fi nd a win early in the season, the Shakopee girls swim team can’t lose right now.

The Sabers extended their win streak to three meets as they topped both Minneapolis Southwest and Minneapolis South in the past week.

Those three-straight wins even their season record at 3-3.

Against Southwest, they won 10 events to win 99-81 at home last Thursday night.

The meet started with Alexandra Doebel, Sara O’Brien, Katie Nadeau and Cassie Lindstrom winning the 200 medley relay with a time of 1 minute, 59.64 seconds.

Senior Gretta Berens followed that up by winning the 200 freestyle with a time of 2:12.59. She edged teammate Somi Yi by two seconds.

Nadeau gave the Sabers three wins in the fi rst three events when she swam a 2:16.5 to win the 200 individual medley by nine seconds.

Lindstrom continued Shakopee’s winning ways as she

edged Southwest’s Madison Kuznia by 0.39 of a second to win the 50 freestyle with a time of 26.6 seconds.

Amber Sinnen and Alexis Congdon went 1-2 in the diving competition while teammate Samantha Schlueter was fourth.

Southwest won its first event by going 1-2 in the 100 butterfly.

Lindstrom put Shakopee back in the winning circle when she won the 100 freestyle with a time of 59.28 seconds.

Kara Rognrud was second with a time of 1:00.46.

Lindstrom, Melody Minea, Jordan Kinsel and Berens teamed up to win the 20 0 freestyle relay while Tawni Graff, O’Brien, Yi and Mariah Lattery fi nished second.

Nade au won her t hi rd event of the night when she swam a 1: 03.43 in the 10 0 backstroke.

O’Brien capped off the individual events by winning the 100 breaststroke.

The Sabers finished off the meet by winning the 400 freestyle by 0.13 seconds.

Prior to the Southwest meet, the Sabers defeated South 94-84.

Nadeau won the 200 free and the 100 butterfly.

Other winners for the Sabers were O’Brien, Berens, Doebel, Lindstrom, and Taylor Vaughan.

The scores look lopsided in the wrong direction but don’t take that as bad play.

That’s what Shakopee boys soccer coach Jon Poppen said after a tough couple games on the scoreboard.

The Sabers have lost their last two games by a combined six goals.

First, Class A’s No. 6 Holy Angels Stars gave the Sabers’ conference title hopes a blow when they beat Shakopee 2-0 last Thursday.

Second, the fifth-ranked Bloomington Jefferson Jaguars outclassed the Sabers 4-0 on Saturday.

“The past few games, despite the record, I thought we’ve played really well,” Poppen said. “I thought we played high-level soccer.”

Against Jefferson, the game got off to a slow start for the Sabers. Jefferson scored two early goals and it should have been three if not for a spectacular save by goalie Lucas Kinsel in the game’s fi rst minute.

The fi rst goal came on a free kick from about 25 yards out which Kinsel had no chance to stop.

After falling behind 2- 0,

Shakopee played better but couldn’t keep up with Jefferson’s high-end talent.

“I think we played better than the score showed,” Poppen said. “We got beat but that didn’t reflect what we are capable of.”

Against the Stars, Shakopee again started slow and couldn’t bounce back from it.

Holy Angels won 2-0 to take control of the Missota Conference standings at 5-0. Shakopee sits in fourth place at 3-1-1.

“It was another game when I thought we played pretty well,” Poppen said. “I thought we played high-level soccer.”

The week started with the Sabers beating New Prague 9-0. The Trojans are in only their second year as a program and have yet to win a game.

GIRLS The Sabers girls team lost 2-1 to Jefferson and tied 1-1 with Holy Angels.

Against Jefferson, Shakopee fell behind 2-0 before Gracie Vaughan scored late in the second half.

The Sabers couldn’t get the tying goal and fell to 7-4-3 on the season.

Against the fifth-ranked Stars, Shakopee got a 1-1 tie and sit in second place in the conference at 3-0-2. Northfield is fi rst at 5-0.

The Sabers also defeated New Prague 7-0.

Kristina Worm and Sam Root Girls tennis K ristina Worm and Sam Root, both seniors, have played No. 1 doubles for much of the past two years. This past week they helped fi nish something that has never been done in Shakopee High School girls tennis history. With their conference match against Red Wing tied 3-3, these two were the only ones left on the court.

Down in the third set 1-4, Sam and Kristina stormed back to win five-straight points to win their match 6-4 and secure and team win, 4-3. This victory along with a 6-1 win over Northfield last week allowed the girls

tennis team to win its firstever conference championship.

They fi nished the conference season undefeated at 6-0. While this was a tremendous team victory, Sam and Kristina came through at the biggest moment to help lift the team to historic heights. Sam’s other activities include basketball, softball, choir and band. Her parents are Kay and Rob Root. A n honor roll student, Kristina’s other activities include Math League, LEAD, National Honor Society, LINK, SADD and AllAcademic. Her parents are Joe and Diane Worm.

Mario Pena Boys soccer

Mario Pena, a senior captain for the Sabers boys soccer team, leads the conference in goals scored with nine. He was the leading goal-scorer for the conference last year as well. Despite a tough loss at Holy Angels, Mario played one of his best matches of the year and created a lot of opportunities for the team. In their 9-0 win against Red Wing, Mario had two goals and two assists.

At this point in the year, Mario has nine goals and four assists for a total of 13 points.

The honor roll student’s other activities include the National Honor Society. His parents are Mel and Mary Pena.

Honorees are selected by “The Committee” in the Shakopee High School Activities Department.

25 years ago…

From the Shakopee Valley News, 1986 Lou Rawls, winner of four Grammy Awards, appeared at Valleyfair performing such songs as “Lady L ove” a nd “Wind Beneath My Wings.”

Concerts are included in regular admission prices.

The Shakopee City Council will soon had an important personnel decision to make – whether to change the size of the council from its present six members to a five-person body or to appoint someone to fi nish the term of Councilmember Dean Colligan who submitted his letter of resignation.

50 years ago…

From the Shakopee Valley News, 1961 A l l Sha kopee dow ntow n businessmen, property own-

ers and renters are urged to attend a special Chamber of Commerce meeting on urban clearance and re-development at the First National Bank community rooms. Purpose of the session, which is being held in conjunction with the Chamber’s regular general membership meeting, will be to provide an advisory vote regarding a possible urban renewal project for re-development of the Shakopee business district.

Crazy Shakopee businesses in crazy costumes will offer thousands of crazy bargains and participate in a day of crazy promotions in observance of the first annual Shakopee “Krazy Daze.” The big bargain fest will begin at 9 a.m. and will run through 9 p.m. and feature gift certificates to be dropped from a huge weather balloon high over Sha kopee, free pony rides and movies for the kiddies, a roving auctioneer, sidewalk sales, and free refreshments.

Sponsor of the event is the retail division of the Shakopee

cise center at the tribal health offices building.

Diabetes has hit the tribe hard, with about 30 percent of all Native Americans living on the White Earth Reservation having been diagnosed with diabetes.

While diabetes affects people of all ethnic groups, it is four to eight times more prevalent among Native Americans than in the genera l popu lation.

And a staggering 68 percent of Native American children will come down with Type 2 Diabetes, which is entirely

From the Scott County Argus, 1911 $300,000 was the 91st birthday gift of Dr. Daniel K. Pearsons, the grand old man of Hinsdale, Ill., to the colleges and missions he calls his children. In all, he has paid what he calls “debts to the world” of approximately $5 million. All that now remains of his once great fortune is the modest residence where he lives valued at $30,000.

Boys Beware “The Eyes of the Law:” Boys, do not kill the little birds or destroy their little homes…their nests. The laws of the state make it a criminal offense which is punishable by a fi ne, to kill any song bird.

T wo t housa nd t racks of unalloted Indian land in the Seminole, Cherokee and Creek nations, Okla., are to be offered for sale by the government at auction.

Tribe donates $1 million to White Earth Nation The Shakopee Mdewakanton Dakota Community today announced a $1 million grant to the White Earth Nation for construction of a diabetes wing to be added to a tribal health building. The Prior Lake tribe donated to the same project with a portion of a $1 million grant a year ago.

The W hite Earth Nation of northern Minnesota will use the $1 million grant along with a U.S. Housing and Urban Development grant to complete a the new wing, which will include a dialysis unit and exer-

preventable. In Indian Country, diabetes has reached epidemic proportions and is considered a health crisis.

The White Earth Nation used part of its previous $1 million SMDC grant for the diabetes wing with another portion going to the volunteer fire department to replace a 38-year-old fi retruck.

The White Earth Reservation is located in northwestern Minnesota and is one of six-member reservations that comprise the Minnesota Chippewa Tribe.

Grease fire spreads, damaging kitchen Shakopee fi refi ghters were called at 6:36 p.m. Friday to a grease fire in a townhome kitchen at 818 Sarazin St. The grease fire started on the stove. It spread when an occupant of the home spilled grease on the f loor while attempting to put out the fire.

Most of the fire damage was confi ned to the stove, cooking hood and kitchen floor.

Shakopee Fire Marshal Tom Pitschneider hopes the fi re can be a lesson for others.

“The fi re could have easily been extinguished by putting a lid on the burning pan of oil which did not happen in this case,” said Pitschneider.
