Crash on County Road 1 by ANNA SALDANA STAFF WRITER

RICE – The Stearns County Sheriff’s Office responded to a single vehicle crash on County Road 1 on Sept. 11. According to witnesses, Martha Loften, 66 of Royalton, was traveling northbound when she crossed over into the oncoming traffic area. She corrected herself and then drove into the east ditch, striking a mailbox and a telephone utility box. Her vehicle came back on to the road and came

to rest blocking both north and southbound lanes of traffic. Loften did not have any apparent injuries, but was transported to the St. Cloud Hospital for evaluation. It appeared that a medical issue contributed to the cause of the crash. No others were involved or injured.

Schmidt seeks seniors’ grief

Golden Tears to be pageant winner’s platform by NATASHA BARBER STAFF WRITER SAUK RAPIDS – Sarah Schmidt’s heart is full of gold, golden tears that is. After working in the funeral service for 13 years, this Sauk Rapids wife, and mother of two, wants seniors – and community members alike – to know it’s OK to cry. Schmidt, 36, has recently been named Mrs. Benton County International 2016 and will represent the communities of Benton County in the Mrs. Minnesota International Pageant on Saturday, March 12, 2016. She is employed and sponsored by Foley Funeral Home. Schmidt has chosen a platform “Golden Tears – It’s Okay to Cry,” which concentrates on senior citizens and grief, to be her focus throughout her reign. “Grief is something that touches everybody, and multiple times throughout your life,”

Sarah Schmidt is the mother of Braxton, 7, (left) and Hudson, 5, and the wife of Stearns County Sheriff Deputy Joel Schmidt. The family has lived in Sauk Rapids for six years, but has always had family ties to Sauk Rapids and the surrounding communities. Schmidt said. “Yet nobody’s grief is the same, it’s like a fingerprint. I’d like to open up that conversation.” Schmidt became passionate about seniors and grief a few years ago after stepping back from full-time funeral service and working in an area senior community. She facilitated three groups who met for a six-week (once a week) grief session.

“It amazed me how many tears these seniors had held onto for decades,” she said. “I had women in their 80s who finally were expressing grief over stillborn infants they had lost in their 20s. I would hear them speak their babies’ names for the first time, 60 years later. It amazed me to see the tenderness in their eyes.” As with anything else, the way society copes with grief

has changed over decades. Many times mothers were not able to hold, name or grieve their babies as families might today. “The father would take the child, bury it and it was gone. They just moved on,” Schmidt said.

Council to give direction of fundraiser by NATASHA BARBER STAFF WRITER

SAUK RAPIDS – A young Sauk Rapids community member has big hopes for a fundraiser she will lead for the Sauk Rapids Fire Department. Madelyn Adamski, 15, daughter of firefighter Jason Adamski, asked the city council’s permission to continue and sought support to raise funds for a rescue airboat for the Sauk Rapids Fire Department at the Sept. 14 council meeting. Adamski is concerned with the safety, age and efficiency of the current boats used in rescue work, and has spearheaded a fundraiser which has already raised in excess of $1,000. The rescue boats would benefit the departments with their flat bottoms and above-

water air propeller, amongst other things. The boats could access shallow waters, swamps or even ice; more quickly and efficiently than the boats currently in department use. Mayor Brad Gunderson was all in favor of Madelyn seeking fundraising funds, but had some reservations about the council giving their blessing. “As a citizen of Sauk Rapids, I’m very excited about this, but as a mayor I have to make sure we do it right,” Gunderson said. Gunderson will meet with the necessary committees and return to Adamski with direction as she proceeds with her fundraiser.

Mother and daughter’s passion ignite Team Dance for a Cause Event raises money for those undergoing breast cancer treatments by NATASHA BARBER STAFF WRITER

Heidi Karbon’s life, and the lives of her mother and surrounding family changed forever on Aug. 1, 2006. “My mother, Betty Radtke, was diagnosed with breast cancer on her granddaughter’s first birthday,” Heidi said. “It was devastating. My husband and I had been married for two years and hadn’t had kids yet. We were surrounded by the excitement of my niece’s first birthday, but we had this fear of the unknown because we knew of the huge battle be-

fore her.” The cancer was invasive, and shortly after diagnosis Radtke underwent surgery, which resulted in a mastectomy. Nine years later, Radtke maintains medical care, but is still in remission. “It’s been a roller coaster ride of emotions, but she remained positive through it all, crediting her yearly mammogram for saving her life,” Heidi said. “It was a whirlwind. You never forget it, but time does make it feel better.” Fast forward to 2008. Formerly Team Dance for a Cure [the name has been changed due to potential legal issues with the Susan G. Komen Foundation], Team Dance for a Cause developed from a Landmark Forum leadership class Heidi attended with her husband. “I was challenged to do something for the community

Royalton woman found safe after almost three-day search by NATASHA BARBER STAFF WRITER

The Stearns County Sheriff’s Office reported Rebecca Ann Schneider, 46, was located along Benton County Road 78 the morning of Sept. 9 around 5:30 a.m. Deputies found Schneider in the ditch approximately 15 miles from 43661 95th Avenue, Rice,

The discoloration is mineral deposits of manganese and iron, and is one of the reasons the water system is flushed. The flushing project should be completed in two to three weeks.

Dancers, grades kindergarten through 12, are welcome to participate in the annual Team Dance for a Cause. The event consists of a day-clinic learning a routine, and a show filled with dancing and speakers.

Schmidt continued from front Male members of the groups shed tears for their parents or their lost wives, heartaches they had hid for years. Through these sessions, it became apparent to Schmidt that losses for this age group may have not been acknowledged in the ways they are today. “These were fresh tears. It was the very first time they were able to express their grief,” she said. As part of her platform, Schmidt will strive for the opportunity to have one or two hour, mini-grief sessions with multiple senior communities throughout her reign. She understands she has a gift for listening to others grieve, being comfortable in that intimacy, and she would like to offer her support to others. Schmidt said some seniors have lost their support network through one way or another. “Being a senior, you’re dealing with all kinds of loss. You have loss from physical and/ or mental limitations,” Schmidt said. “You may have lost your independence, losing your car, the ability to drive or moving from the farm into a community. Seniors are surrounded by loss. Those things still create grief. It might not be the death of someone, but it’s the death of whatever that was, and it creates the same types of emotions. It’s a privilege, for me, to be the person who can sit and listen.” Schmidt is the wife of Joel Schmidt, a Deputy for the Stearns County Sheriff’s De-

partment. They reside in Sauk Rapids with their two sons, Braxton, 7 and Hudson, 5. Schmidt is employed at Foley Funeral Home as a funeral director, licensed insurance agent and grief support coordinator. In addition to her career and roles as a wife and mom, she is on the board of directors for the Sauk Rapids Community Ambassador Organization,

Heidi, a former Sauk Rapids-Rice dance coach, desired to spearhead a project that would make a lasting difference. After knowing firsthand what her mother’s battle felt like and sharing the love of dance with her mom, pairing breast cancer awareness and dance seemed like a natural fit. Heidi grew up with her mother never far from her side at her dance classes, performances and competitions. “It didn’t take me long to write down on that piece of paper the phrase, “Team Dance for a Cure.” I switched up the words dance team to show this event was not another dance team program. It is bigger than that. It is about dancing together united as one big team,” Heidi said. The first Team Dance for a Cause was held in May of 2008 with 23 participants. The event has grown over the years and recorded 187 dancers at the 2014 fall clinic. Heidi credits the success to a small committee that has formed around the event. “This event would never have been possible without the support and vision of the committee behind Team Dance for a Cause. Two committee members are breast cancer survivors and bring continued motivation to grow the event each year,” Heidi said. During the one day dance clinic, students grades kindergarten through twelfth grade gather and learn a grade level dance from volunteer instructors from Just for Kix, St. Cloud School of Dance and Ultimate Gymnastics, Ms. Melinda’s Dance Studio, North Crest Kids Activity Center and Jete Dance Centre. The dancers then perform their routines at a free, public dance show. Along with the newly learned routines, guests have the opportunity to witness local fall dance teams perform and to hear committee members and past donation recipients speak. The goal of Team Dance for a Cause is to make the lives of those battling breast

FedEx driver places third in super bowl of safety

Butkowski logs 16 years, 1.6 million miles by ANNA SALDANA STAFF WRITER

SAUK RAPIDS – Paul Butkowski is no stranger to driving truck, and doing so safely. He has been driving for FedEx for 16 years, and has 1.6 million miles without any accidents. Butkowski has a trophy to go with that number, after placing third in his class at the 2015 National Truck Driving Championships (NTDC). The NTDC event took place Aug. 11-15 in St. Louis, Mo., and over 430 drivers participated. The FedEx company won the most awards and had the most finalists in the competition. The event consisted of two days of competition, and finalists were announced on Saturday morning. Following the announcement, finalists had to complete one more PHOTO SUBMITTED round of competition to deterPaul Butkowski recently competed at the National Truck mine placing. Driving Championships in St. Louis, Mo., where he placed “It’s an honor to be a third. part of that group of drivers,”

Butkowski said about being among 49 drivers in his class. “It’s an amazing experience every year, and this year was extra special being that I came home with a third place trophy.” During his time as a truck driver, Butkowski has seen a change in himself, both personally and professionally. “I’ve become a much safer driver, even in my personal vehicle,” he said. “I want to be able to compete again, so I don’t want anything to happen.” For Butkowski, he has not only been representing FedEx, but also the Sauk Rapids community as a safe driver, and he feels that is important. “I think the community should be proud,” Butkowski said. “It’s good for the community to know that there are safe truck drivers in the area. I want to be as safe of a driver as I can be on the street every day.”

Districts throughout the ‘State of Hockey’ receive book by NATASHA BARBER STAFF WRITER

Students in the Sauk Rapids-Rice district will be able to find a new read on their library shelves this fall. Copies of the early reader chapter book, “Drop the Puck: It’s Hockey Season,” have been donated to all 342 school districts in Minnesota, thanks to Frank and Margaret Marvin of Warroad, and 1-800-Ask-Gary. The book, most suitable for students in grades 2-5, tells the story of two brothers, Blaine and Cullen. On and off the ice, Blaine and Cullen have deep love for the game and also each other. Cullen is the all-star team captain, but his brother, Blaine, who has Down syndrome, is clearly the ‘unsung hero’ of the team. The storyline doesn’t hide Blaine’s challenges; it proudly dis-

plays Blaine’s heart-warming perseverance, his discipline and love for the game, his family and life. Through detailed illustration, young readers are able to learn respect and a better understanding for the challenges individuals with special needs face on a daily basis. The book also teaches the concepts of teamwork, caring and sharing. Minnesota author Jayne Jones was inspired to write a book that would be a fun read for kids, yet teach a valuable lesson. “Hockey seemed like a great start, and the tale just naturally evolved,” Jones said. “We, like most hockey families [Jones’s husband coaches hockey], spend hours at the rink. Hockey has a special place in many hearts PHOTO SUBMITTED – old, young, male, female, including those with special Illustrator Katrina Dohm (left) and author of “Drop the Puck: needs.

Be aware, telephone and internet scams

The Benton County Sheriff’s Office would like to remind you to be on guard against telephone and internet scams. On Sept. 11, the Benton County Sheriff’s Office received a complaint from a victim of a telephone scam. The victim received a telephone call from an individual claiming to be associated with the IRS. The scam involved the criminal convincing the victim that there was a warrant for the victim’s arrest and that payment was needed right away in order to clear up the matter. Additionally, the criminals in this case are using the non-emergency number of the Benton County Sheriff’s Office as their caller ID information. If you are contacted by someone who is asking for money and claiming to be from the IRS or Benton County Sheriff’s Office, hang up the telephone.

What do you like most about volleyball? Everything I get to experience, I get to experience with a team, winning or losing. Whether I get a great dig or I make a mistake, I always have my teammates behind me, supporting me 100 percent. That’s something I believe everyone should get the chance to feel.

visit www. saukrapids herald.com • Home for • Life breaking • Health news.

What is your favorite thing to do on the court? My favorite thing to do is return digs. When I say returning digs, I don’t mean rolls or tips, but when hitters really crank on it. That’s what I love. It’s a factor of personal satisfaction when I dig a really good hit. Tell us about the most memorable game you’ve ever been a part of. The most memorable game I’ve ever been a part of is and always will be our playoff game last year. We were playing against Detroit Lakes on our home court. We were down 0-2 going into the last set. My nerves were uncontrollable and all I remember is thinking, we’re not done yet. From that point on we put 100 percent into everything we did. We played smart, and we ended up winning. It’s inspiration to me today knowing we can actually do anything we put our minds to.

Tell us about a skill you possess that most people don’t know. I’m really good at archery. It started in 4th grade, when everyone had to learn how shoot a bow for gym. After the lesson, the teacher asked if anyone wanted to join a competition, and I wanted to. I ended up liking it a lot, and my step-dad bow hunts, so he got me a bow. I started taking classes and Mr. Anderson, my volleyball coach, was actually my archery coach back then. I joined a couple competitions and actually got first a couple times. I no longer shoot archery because I spend most of my freetime working on yearbook and volleyball.

What has been your favorite high school class to date? My favorite high school class is yearbook with Mr. Zimpel. I’m really into photography and anything that has to do with graphics. Every time I start with a new page, it’s blank but my mind is filled with thoughts. I joined yearbook sophomore year, thinking nothing of it, but I ended up loving it. One of my proudest accomplishments is that I was the only junior editor last year. It’s a passion I can’t explain. It’s the class I look forward to every day.

What are some words you like to live by? Honesty, appreciation and forgiveness. I believe honesty plays a huge role in life, because lying causes problems whether it comes to friendship or family. I learned appreciation is a big one because my mother does everything for me, and I’m so thankful for everything she does. Lastly, forgiveness, because everyone makes mistakes. I believe everyone should get a second chance. What is your favorite meal, movie, social media and song? My favorite meal is barbecued shrimp with steak and asparagus. I don’t necessarily have a favorite movie because I love them all, but I’m really in to thrillers. My favorite social media is instagram because I love pictures. Lastly, I don’t really have a favorite song either, it usually changes every week but I really like country. What are your future plans? I would like to go to college for forensic science or marine biology and hope to be playing volleyball wherever I’m at.

Storm finish second amongst 16 teams by MARK KLAPHAKE STAFF WRITER

The Sauk Rapids-Rice volleyball team found that a little home cooking was all they needed to break out of their early season slump. The Storm snapped an early season three-game skid with a second place finish at the Sauk Rapids-Rice Invitational Sept. 12. “We finally started to play to our abilities,” said head coach Dave Anderson. “Our confidence continued to built throughout the day. As the competition got better, we came together each and every match.” SRR won their first three matches defeating WatertownMayer, St. Cloud Cathedral and Sauk Centre before losing to Rocori in the championship of the 16-team tournament. “I was very happy with their effort. Obviously, those

are 16 very good teams,” Anderson said. “We want to continue to keep that consistency up and carry it to every match we have.” SRR didn’t lose a set in their first two rounds of the tournament. They defeated Watertown-Mayer 25-16, 25-20 and Cathedral 30-28, 25-20. In the semifinals, they outlasted Sauk Centre 25-20, 16-25, 15-7. Sauk Rapids-Rice took Rocori to extra points, 27-25, in the first set but lost, and then lost set two 25-17. “We battled Rocori. The girls gained confidence with themselves and their teammates. I was very pleased with our effort and play,” Anderson said. Individually, senior Kyra Harvey led the team with 35 kills. “Kyra Harvey is coming into her own, in both attacking and serving,” Anderson

Konz, a 6’2” sophomore, and Miyoang, a 6’0” junior, had nine and eight blocks, respectively. Both girls played junior varsity last year. “I don’t know if I ever had girls 6’0” or taller.

Lumberjacks win home opener

Granite City closes on Minnesota Flying Aces by NATASHA BARBER STAFF WRITER

With fans filling the seats at Armadillo Deck Rink and last season’s Silver Cup Championship banner raised, the 2015-16 Granite City Lumberjacks played to win on the Sept. 12 home opener against the Minnesota Flying Aces.

Granite City L u m b e r j a c k defenseman Casey Esselman, 19, scored two goals contributing to a 6-2 win over the Minnesota Flying Aces at the Lumberjacks home opener Sept 12. Esselman along with forwards Will Mix and Michael Piehler was one of the three Granite City Lumberjacks “Stars of the Game.”

“I think we started out a little too excited for the home opener,” said Lumberjacks head coach Brad Willner. “We were squeezing our sticks a little tight, but once we settled down, things started to click. I think most of them play the game like it’s their last one. Not everyone has that mentality, but it sure is contagious and great to see.” A little over eight minutes into the game, returning forward Adam Marty scored the first goal of the season for Granite City, assisted by forward Tommy Giller. From there, both teams struggled to find the net, ending the first period with a Granite City 1 -0 lead. Granite City was quick to

The Sauk Rapids football squad had a daunting task going into Brainerd Friday night to compete against the Warriors. Despite losing the game 35-14, the Storm kept it close early. Barinerd scored in the first quarter to take a 7-0 lead, but the Strom came back with a touchdown in the second quarter. Senior quarterback Matt Johnson connected with Zach Fuecker from nine yards out to make it a 7-6 game. The two-point conversion failed, however, to keep the score at 7-6. Brainerd then closed out the first half with another touchdown run, and with the extra point, led 14-6 at halftime. At that point, the Storm were still very much in the game. Two touchdowns in the third quarter by the Warriors made the score 28-6 heading into the final 12 minutes. Johnson was able to con-
