Rosemount National seized by federal regulators, acquired by Central Bank by Jessica Harper THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
Rosemount National Bank was closed last week by federal regulators and acquired by Central Bank of Stillwater. This is Minnesota’s first bank failure of the year. Rosemount National’s sole location at 15055 Chippendale Ave. W. in Rosemount was closed April 15 and reopened April 16 as a Central branch. This is one of many failed banks acquired by Central. Since the financial crisis began four years ago, Central Bank acquired five failed institutions throughout the nation. This more than doubled its assets from $300 million to $777 million. “We are always interested in the opportunity to expand our branches in the metro,” said Larry Albert, president and CEO of Central Bank. Albert said he expects customers will experience a seamless transition. Rosemount National was
founded in 1982, specializing in commercial loans backed by real estate. When the real estate market fell, Rosemount National became unstable. The Federal Reserve increased its oversight on Rosemount National in 2010 because it had been losing money for more than a year. According to the reserve’s report, the bank lost $917,000 in 2008 and $2.5 million in 2009. Rosemount National’s total assets were $38 million at the end of 2010. Its total equity dropped from $5.6 million in 2008 to $899,000 in 2010. Out of 402 Minnesota banks, Rosemount National ranked 296th by assets as of Dec. 31, 2010, according to the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Although the financial crisis has caused a significant spike in bank seizures throughout the nation, bank shutdowns in Minnesota have been relatively low, said

Blast from the past at Eastview
Existing clubhouse at city-run golf course showing structural defects by Andrew Miller THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
The Apple Valley City Council last week took what could be the first step toward the construction of a new clubhouse at Valleywood Golf Course. The council on April 14 approved a $5,000 fee for CNH Architects to create a schematic design for a new clubhouse at the city-run, 18-hole golf course. The architect’s design will take three to four weeks to complete, and then a final design and budget will be set, according to Parks and Recreation Director Randy Johnson. Once a budget is finalized, the council will determine if the project is to proceed. While the prospect of a new clubhouse has triggered debate among council members involving funding sources and public support for the project, what isn’t a subject of debate is the condition of the existing clubhouse. Built in 1976 by students at Dakota County Technical
College for about $85,000, the clubhouse is showing signs of structural defects and potential environmental problems. “This building has outlasted its life,” said Council Member John Bergman. “It is literally falling off the foundation.” Earlier this year, city officials estimated it would cost $1.5 million to fix the existing clubhouse, including an overhaul of the septic system, bathrooms and other items, according to Bergman. Ruth Grendahl was the sole council member to vote against the $5,000 for the architect’s design. She said she could support the project if the cost of a new clubhouse was $1 million, but she anticipates the price tag will be about $3 million. Additionally, Grendahl noted that a poll to gauge public support for a new clubhouse was conducted in 2006, and 63 percent of residents surveyed said they opposed it.

Local business makes prom more affordable for low-income students Total Care Cleaners offers donated used dresses for $10, free tux cleaning by Jessica Harper THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
For most teens, prom is an exciting part of high school. But for some, it is yet another financial burden. One local business owner is making it easier for lowincome teens to enjoy this formal event by selling donated used gowns.

The dresses are limited to one per customer, and are available until they are sold out. Slutsky didn’t forget the guys. Male students can get free dry-cleaning for tuxedoes. He was inspired to start the annual drive three years ago after shopping for a prom dress for his own daughter, Elina, who is now 22. “I was surprised when my wife said she spent $100 to $200 for a dress that my daughter would only wear once,” he said. “That’s

Diversity doubles in District 196

Diverse is not typically how people describe the Rosemount-Apple ValleyEagan School District. However, District 196 has transformed over the past decade into quite a melting pot. The school district doubled in diversity over the past 10 years, according to the 2010 U.S. Census. “Oftentimes, this is congruent with increases in more affordable housing,� said Tony Taschner, communications coordinator for District 196. “This is consistent with what we are seeing around the country.� Currently, students of color make up 24.7 percent of the school district’s population. This falls in line with the state average of 24.3 percent. At 9.8 percent, black students make up the majority of students of color. This population grew at the fastest rate at 0.8 percent between the 2009-10 and 2010-11 school years. Asian-American students make up 8.2 percent of the school district’s population, while Latinos make up 6 percent and American Indians make up 0.1 percent, according to an October 2010 enrollment report. White students represent 75.2 percent of enrollment, which is a 1.5 percentage point decrease compared to the previous school year. English Language Learner (ELL) students have consistently made up approximately 5 percent of the school district’s student body. This is below the state average of 7.4 percent.
In District 196, 85 different languages are spoken, including varying dialects of the same language. The majority of ELL students speak Spanish, which is followed by Somali and Vietnamese.
Integration
population, it also faces budget cuts and the prospect of integration funding changes. In March, the District 196 School Board approved cutting $3.5 million from the district’s budget for next school year. This includes 47 full time equivalent positions (FTEs), which make up 27 teaching positions and 20 administrative or support staff. Budget adjustments for the 2011-12 school year total $8.5 million. District 196 was able to avoid making deeper cuts by using $5 million in federal education jobs funding that became available last year. Shortly after the School Board made its decision, the Legislature began examining whether to change or even eliminate the $90 million the state pays districts annually in integration funding, which goes toward transportation and programs to increase diversity and close the achievement gap. District 196 receives approximately $4 million in integration funding, which pays for programs, cultural advocates and transportation to and from its magnet schools. Several programs in District 196, such as young scholars, would need to be cut if funding were eliminated, Thomas said. The district’s cultural advocates could also be let go without the funding, he said. “Without them, we see a decrease in parent engagement,� Thomas said.
Magnet schools have been one way the school district has addressed the needs of its diverse population. In 2007, Cedar Park and Glacier Hills elementary schools in Apple Valley and Eagan, respectively, were identified as being racially isolated. Scott Thomas, integration and equity coordinator for District 196, pointed out that racial isolation among the schools is often due to isolation in housing. “We have been given the responsibility to mitigate that in terms of schooling,� he said. One of the district’s solutions was to turn Cedar Park and Glacier Hills into magnet schools. The goal was to attract white students to predominantly minority schools and vice versa, while improving education opportunities for all students, Thomas said. “Integration is not just about who sits next to whom,� he said. “The spirit behind it is that families should have choice. We want to make schools better and more attractive to all families.� Since then, the school district transformed Diamond Path Elementary in Apple Valley into an interE-mail Jessica Harper at: national studies magnet.

Opinion Thisweek Columnist Commissioner Cassellius urges changes to teacher license renewal process by Joe Nathan THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
Last week, Minnesota Commissioner of Education Brenda Cassellius met with the editorial board of ECM Publishers in Coon Rapids and recommended major, thoughtful changes in the way Minnesota teachers are evaluated. She also questioned how well principals have been trained to do this. Improving teacher assessment is part of the top seven priorities for the commissioner and Gov. Mark Dayton. I think she is right to urge greater attention to a teacherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license renewal. Education Minnesota, the statewide teacher union, agrees changes are needed in evaluating teachers. In a recent statement sent to me, the union asserts, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Min-
n e curteachevalusysinade-
sotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rent e r ation tem is quate
to support and develop teachers. Many teachers go years without a performance review. A stronger evaluation system is essential to help teachers be more effective.â&#x20AC;? Agreeing with this concern, Republican legislators have urged regular assessment of each Minnesota teacher. They suggest using factors including whether the teacher produces improved student achievement. Cassellius suggested tying evaluation to the license renewal process. Minnesota teachers are required to car-
ry out various activities and document, generally over a five-year period, that they have gained enough knowledge to be allowed to continue teaching. This is done through taking workshops and classes in various areas, totaling at least 125 hours of work. Under the approach suggested by Cassellius, Minnesota teachers also would have to take a test of professional knowledge in their field. Cassellius would supplement this with a â&#x20AC;&#x153;locally definedâ&#x20AC;? group of assessments. That could include review by other teachers, videos of their work, surveys of students and determination of whether students in the teacherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s classroom are making progress. According to Cassellius,
currently â&#x20AC;&#x153;principals are not trained well enough to evaluate teachers.â&#x20AC;? So the state needs to help principals develop the skills and knowledge needed to help evaluate teachers. The commissioner says many principals agree that they need â&#x20AC;&#x153;further trainingâ&#x20AC;? to do this well. The kind of evaluation that the commissioner recommended would have considerable consequences for a teacher. An ineffective teacher would lose not only her or his job, but also the license to teach anywhere in a Minnesota public school. This would transform license renewal from a relatively unexamined process. Cassellius believes that more effective assessment of teachers â&#x20AC;&#x153;is an area where (she and the gover-
nor) are seeking agreementâ&#x20AC;? with Republican legislators. Legislators and the commissioner are right to make this a priority. Lonnie Hartley, Education Minnesotaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s press secretary, recently sent me a statement explaining that the group recommends changing teacher evaluation to, among other things: â&#x20AC;˘ train evaluators; â&#x20AC;˘ require school districts and teacher unions to negotiate â&#x20AC;&#x153;an annual teacher evaluation process or implement a plan developed by the Minnesota Department of Educationâ&#x20AC;?; â&#x20AC;˘ require â&#x20AC;&#x153;multiple measures of student learning, which could include test results, to be taken into account as evaluation componentsâ&#x20AC;?; and â&#x20AC;˘ create a three-year
evaluation cycle involving a teacher growth plan, review by other teachers and â&#x20AC;&#x153;at least one formal evaluation by a school administrator.â&#x20AC;? Details of evaluation proposals vary among the commissioner, Republican legislators, and the teachersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; union. However, each agrees that improving teaching evaluation is vital. Minnesota students will benefit if these groups find common ground.
He failed to schedule any meetings for the first several months after the election, even after he was sworn in. Further, the occasional meetings he held havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been public; constituents have to wait in line until Wardlow is done talking with the folks at the head of the line. They canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t easily hear what is being discussed with those who are ahead in line. But this is a democracy, and there should be no secrecy about what gets said in public meetings with constituents. This should be true for state Sen. Ted Daley as well. But these incumbents donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want constituents to find out their deficiencies in public, though they are willing at least to meet with people one at a time. The incumbent Rep. Diane Anderson from District 38A has been
even less forthcoming in holding any meetings at all. By contrast, their predecessors, state Rep. Mike Obermueller, state Sen. Jim Carlson and state Rep. Sandra Masin held frequent public meetings in which all in attendance could hear each question and answer. If an informed electorate is any goal of a smoothly functioning democracy, this area is just one of the examples of foot-dragging these new incumbents have indulged in to prevent voters from discovering what goes on behind closed doors at the Capitol. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m concerned about issues such as wealthy taxpayers paying their fair share (percentage) of total state taxes. But these elusive incumbents have been strangely reticent about that.
think that one adult can effectively serve 50 students is unbelievable. As an educational assistant, I was involved with students in grades seven through nine. The majority of my school day was to assist 30 ninth-grade students. Our school year goal was to have these students finish their core classes (needed for high school graduation) with a passing grade. These core classes were mainstream classes. Many of the students I assisted needed an advocate to voice the struggles they were having to the classroom teacher or often I would re-teach the lesson to their English comprehension level. I was saddened when my position was cut due to budget problems and I know the elimination of my position added to the responsibilities of the ESL teacher. Please re-consider this drastic change. Many of the children whose lives will be affected do not have parents who can advocate for their children because they do not speak the language fluently. These students need the support of an ESL teaching staff that is not overwhelmed with a high number of students. Please do not change the ESL student/teacher ratio to 50 to 1 in Burnsville-Eagan-Savage schools.
year (plus benefits) and then five months later saying the job is just too large for one person? Even though one person had done the job for years with more employees and students? Well, in District 191 the answer was easy: Audit the department, reorganize and hire two more administrators (director of labor relations and employee development coordinator at $90,000 each plus benefits). The HR director actually posted the jobs on Jan. 7, although the School Board didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t approve the positions (unanimously) on Jan. 20. Can you say â&#x20AC;&#x153;wag the dogâ&#x20AC;?? Check out the meeting online (isd191.org). Predicated on this policy, it then makes sense that the district is now going to hire more administrative staffing (director of instruction and special education administrators). All the while, staff, children and community are asked to do more with less. The recent layoffs in clerical, secretarial, cooks, custodial, EAs, tech EAs, the tech office and 120 teachers speak volumes to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;visionâ&#x20AC;? the district leaders are establishing. All the layoffs are staff who deal directly with children. All the new administrative positions do not work directly with children. Done and done. Let your voice be heard and speak up for the kids. Contact your School Board members today and ask them to stop increasing the administration staff, while cutting programs and staff that have direct contact with children. You can visit the district website (www. isd191.org) or call (952) 707-2000.

Letters A small kindness To the editor: I am writing today to say thank you to a member of our community that did something very thoughtful for my class, which really made our day. On Tuesday, April 12, my students and classroom staff did a walking field trip to Andyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Market. (I am the Severe/Profound Special Education teacher at Eastview High School. It was a morning when the MCA tests were being performed. Because we sometimes have a hard time being quiet, we decided to go walking.) While we were there, we had a chance to buy a snack and socialize with different people we saw. One anonymous customer bought my students a $10 gift card to
use for buying more snacks. It was presented to us by the cashier. To that anonymous customer: Thank you for your thoughtfulness and generosity. Your simple act of kindness made our day. KAREN PACHAN Eastview High School
Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain To the editor: A letter writer rushed to defend incumbent state Rep. Doug Wardlow, who falsely claimed during his campaign that he would hold weekly meetings if elected. The writer tried to say Wardlow was doing just that. Sadly that is not the case.

ESL staff cuts To the editor: I was dismayed to read in the Star Tribune on April 13 of the proposed budget cuts to ESL staffing for ISD 191 for school year 2011-12. To even consider having 50 ESL students per one ESL teacher seems mind-boggling. As a former ESL volunteer in ISD 191 for six years and as an ESL educational assistant for three years, I have directly seen the impact an ESL teacher has on a student. They are not only teaching English, but introducing students to American culture. They are often a resource for the parents as they begin life in a new country. Many times they are the only English-speaking liaison the student has to serve them in school. To

After a few years of building a varsity lacrosse program, the Eagan/Rosemount girls team had a breakthrough in 2010. The girls put together a 12-4 record and made it to the Section 3 semifinals for the first time. With 14 returning varsity players, the Wild-Irish have another year of high expectations ahead of them. “We should be in the mix to compete for a top spot in the conference and in Section 3,” said coach Jeff Smith. The team’s top two leading scorers, Simone Haugen and Cassie Miller, are back on the field along with several of their teammates from 2010 including Taylor Budge, Abi Rodstein, Hannah O’Donnell, Sydney Lubeley, Jessica Hasslinger, Maddie Johnson, Kate Sullivan, Emma Murray, Lisa Crow, Chelsea Nelson, Kourtney Mitchell and Katelyn Paget. “We will get our chances to score,” Smith said. “Returning players are excel-
lent leaders and know how to help bring a team together.”
Apple Valley With eight returning starters and four of the top five scorers back, the Eagles have some positivity flowing through the organization. “Every year we strive to be better (and) improve our record,” said coach Alexandra Ross. “This year we are looking towards state. If we keep working hard and play with confidence, we have a chance of winning our section.” All-Conference defender and captain Jenaye Coleman joins Liz Hermes, Hannah Segar and Anna Edgren, who were the team’s high scorers last year. With some help from veterans Katrina Vogelgesang, Lexie Case, Hayley Huotari and Marina Gabor, they hope to combine into a winning product. Newcomer Chloe Moser should give the team a boost.

Lightning hope to stay the course Eastview girls golf looking to make another trip to state by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
With several of the top girls in the state, the Eastview girls golf team is counting on some low scores and high places in 2011. The girls finished in sixth place at state last June. “Overall, we look better and stronger than we did last year,” head coach Bob Boldus said. “We’ll wait and see when we get on the course and play a little bit more. From beginning to end last year we saw big improvements, and we’re ahead of where we were at this point last year.” The girls know what they have in their golf bag and they want to make sure the rest of the state knows. “I know they’re setting their goals high,” Boldus said. “I don’t have to talk them into being a state contender. They’re leading that charge.” Last year’s runner-up at state, Sara Detlefsen, is ready for another round, although she could be in and out of the lineup with American Junior Golf Association events. “I don’t know what that means for her yet,” Boldus said. “There’s a big event during the state tournament in Rochester and
there will be several (Division I) coaches on hand to watch.” Kristine Opatz will take the lead in her absence as one of the top golfers in the South Suburban Conference. “She’s playing really well,” Boldus said. “She’ll be leading the team in a lot of our events.” They’re joined by Samantha Peterson and Shannon Deutsch, who both golfed at state in 2010, along with newcomers Madeleine Paulsen and Madison Roe. “Team-wise we look really good,” Boldus said. “Adding in Paulson and Row really helps.” In an early-season invitational on April 11, Eastview finished second at the Minnesota Valley Invite behind Eden Prairie; Eagan was third and Apple Valley fourth. Boldus feels the South Suburban Conference schedule should provide some serious competition this season. Rosemount has Molly Flynn and Eagan has Jordy Drenttel back. Both played at state last June. “We’ll see,” Boldus said. “Lakeville North always comes up with something and Lakeville South was looking strong. See Golf, 7A
Wildcats look to maintain their swing Eagan boys tennis hopes to remain competitive after finishing second at state in 2010 by Andy Rogers THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
The Eagan boys tennis team is hoping to pick up where it left off last year. The Wildcats were runner-up at state last June. Although the team lost three of its best players in Justin Abrams (who plays for Bradley University), Logan Petersen (playing at Gustavus Adolphus) and AJ Lutovsky, head coach Scott Nichols feels another run in the Wildcats. “This year Eagan hopes to place first or second in the strong South Suburban Conference and make a run in the section and return to state,” Scott Nichols said. The Wildcats are at their best when it’s one-on-one. “We have a strong and deep singles lineup,” Scott Nichols said. Scott Nichols highlighted the leadership of the team’s three captains – Brady Radermacher, Jeff Smith and Brendan Hollidge. Hollidge, Drew Nichols (who is undefeated so far at No. 4) and Zach Ekstein join the singles lineup with Radermacher. “Radermacher and Zach are switching off No. 1 singles for now,” Scott Nichols said. “Both are very strong.” Ben Ekstein and Smith lead the doubles lineup, which is filled with underclassmen. “We have many new doubles players in the lineup with several players from last year’s (junior varsity) team filling in the doubles positions,” Nichols said.

ing the Rosemount boys team, which has been an adjustment. “Unlike the fall, this weather factor is new to me and has been a challenge,” Beck said. Matt Baker leads the way at No. 1 singles for the Irish for another year along with Stu Hatlen and Will Holcomb with several years of combined varsity experience between them. They’re joined by Sean Hatlen, Dominic Olhoff and Jordan Randall. “We hope to finish in the mid to upper ranking in conference play,” Beck said. “Our goal for this season is to improve our doubles play, especially their net game to help win close matches.”
Eastview The Lightning feature Will Biernat, who qualified for the state singles tournament last year as a sophomore. “Will looks much improved over last year,” his coach, Jeff Olsen, said. His win total might not show it playing Mounds View’s Wyatt McCoy, one of the top players in the country, and the No. 1 player from South Dakota. “We will be interested in how he competes in our conference,” Olsen said. Some of Eastview’s key returners include Nishaan Pal, Aaron Larson, Dan Falkenberg, Matt Haugdahl and the team’s top doubles option, Sam Cychosz . With the addition of Brandon and Tommy Vang, the Lightning’s goals are lofty. “Win the Conference, win the sections and go to state,” Olsen said. “Things so far our going well. We will know in the next two weeks just how good we really are.”

Thisweekend After-school standup Metcalf Comedy Club offers junior high students a chance to polish their punchlines by Andrew Miller THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s three in the afternoon, and Chris Adams is advising one of his students to focus on dog slobber. The student, Metcalf Junior High eighth-grader Tyler Schultz, has just delivered a rant about dogs and all the disgusting things they do. Adams wants him to zero in on the funny. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think you can exaggerate the slobber part,â&#x20AC;? says Adams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want you to come up with weird, crazy images of what dog slobber is like.â&#x20AC;? Odd instructions from a teacher â&#x20AC;&#x201C; but not out of place at a meeting of the Metcalf Comedy Club. Adams, a social studies teacher at the school whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s performed as a standup comic since college, founded the after-school club earlier this year. The idea is to give students a chance to try their hands at standup â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and to give potential class clowns a way to redirect those screwball impulses into performance art. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I see a lot of attention-
seeking behavior from students in class â&#x20AC;&#x201C; I can sympathize because when I was in junior high I was the same way,â&#x20AC;? said Adams, who attended Falcon Ridge Junior High and Eastview High School in Apple Valley. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I wanted to provide a place where they could channel that energy into creative focus, and not get into trouble.â&#x20AC;? The club has about 15 members and meets weekly on Thursdays after school. Students learn basic jokewriting and performance essentials such as how to hold the microphone and how to pace yourself in front of an audience. They do comedy-writing exercises, rehearse their material, get feedback from Adams and other club members and, if time allows, watch YouTube clips of their favorite comics â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Gabriel Iglesias, Dane Cook, Mitch Hedberg, Daniel Tosh. The students are given notebooks in which theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re to jot down all the zany things that pop into their heads during the school day. The notebooks, Adams
said, provide an alternative to noisy classroom disruptions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a lot of kids who talk in the middle of class,â&#x20AC;? said Adams. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I tell the kids: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Write it down, bring it to the workshop, let us help you make it funny.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; â&#x20AC;? Eighth-grader Luis Velez said he likes the opportunities the club offers to build a repertoire of jokes and try them out in front of an audience of his peers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kind of cool â&#x20AC;&#x201C; they give you excellent criticism, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s good to have that kind of feedback,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We learn how to not be shy in front of people, we get to work on material, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a great way to have fun.â&#x20AC;? The budding comics will be taking their routines out of the classroom and onto the stage at 7 p.m. Sunday, May 15 at the MinneHaHa Comedy Club in Shakopee. Each student will have five minutes in the spotlight. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an open mic â&#x20AC;&#x201C; it could be hit, it could be miss,â&#x20AC;? Adams said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;But the kids are excited about it.â&#x20AC;?

Ron Tilson, the Minnesota Zooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s conservation director and a world-renowned tiger expert, will retire from his post at the zoo on Earth Day, April 22. Tilson has been at the Apple Valley zoo since 1984 and has held positions in research, biological programs and conservation. He is currently responsible for the zooâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endangered species and field conservation programs. Tilsonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career achievements include starting the Sumatran Tiger Conservation Program; coordinating the Tiger Species Survival Plan for the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), which manages almost 400 tigers living in 120 North American zoos; and serving as senior technical advisor to the State Forestry Administration of China to develop recovery options
for South China tigers. For work in tiger conservation, Tilson and his colleagues were awarded the AZAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s international conservation award in 1995 and 2004. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have had the distinction and pleasure of spending my entire professional career in the company of the most magnificent beast on Earth, ranging from conserving wild tigers in Asian forests to improving their daily care in AZA zoos to reducing irresponsible ownership in private homes,â&#x20AC;? said Tilson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I look forward to the next adventure.â&#x20AC;? Tilson, who is also a professor in the Fisheries, Wildlife and Conservation Biology Department at the University of Minnesota, plans to continue his conservation work as a senior advisor to the Minnesota Zoo Foundation.

BHS auto students accelerate to state C L A S S I F I E D S Burnsville High School seniors Randy Nagel and Tyler Derrick to compete in 2011 state automotive competition by Jessica Harper THISWEEK NEWSPAPERS
The clock ticks down as Randy Nagel and Tyler Derrick of Burnsville High School examine a 2012 Ford Mustangâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hoses and wires. A hose is plugged. Derrick races to the parts department for a new one â&#x20AC;&#x201C; 40 minutes remaining. More than half of the competition has passed, and the duo must hurry. This is, in essence, what Nagel and Derrick will face on May 4 at the statewide 2011 Ford/AAA Student Auto Skills competition at Hennepin Technical College in Brooklyn Park. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re really looking forward to it,â&#x20AC;? Derrick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the closest thing to real shop work.â&#x20AC;? The two high school seniors were able to qualify for the hands-on competition by passing an hour-long online examine, which tested them on complex diagnostic and mechanical knowledge. At the state competition, they will be given 90 minutes to inspect, diagnose and repair various mechanical and electrical problems in a 2012 Ford Mustang Premium. Each vehicle is purposely â&#x20AC;&#x153;buggedâ&#x20AC;? prior to the competition. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I like that we will be working on such a high-performance car,â&#x20AC;? Derrick said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impressive that (the Mustangâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s) V-6 (engine) can get 31 miles to a gallon.â&#x20AC;? Both teens have studied mechanics all through high school, and are currently enrolled in an automotive class at Burnsville High School. The opportunity to work

Burnsville High School seniors Tyler Derrick (left) and Randy Nagel will compete on May 4 in the statewide 2011 Ford/AAA Student Auto Skills competition at Hennepin Technical College in Brooklyn Park. with their hands in a real shop is what they enjoy most. Both agree that the most challenging part of learning auto mechanics is figuring out the computer systems. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s become so technologically advanced in the last few years,â&#x20AC;? Nagel said. Most vehicles today contain elaborate computer and electrical systems that require computerized devices and laptops to diagnose problems. While the technology can present a challenge for the two teens, they also find it fascinating. This will be Nagel and Derrickâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s first time competing in the competition sponsored by Ford Motors and AAA. They are among a plethora of BHS seniors who have competed at state over the past eight years. Few have made it to the national competition in Detroit. Those who win nationals qualify for a chance to receive training for a potential job with Ford Motor Co. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Faribault often wins first place,â&#x20AC;? said Russel Tesmer, a tech education teacher at BHS. However, Derrick and Na-
gel are confident they have a chance to take home first place, which would enable them to receive a scholarship to a technical college. Both have been practicing for the past week on a similar Mustang donated by Apple Valley Ford. Derrick and Nagelâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s love for auto mechanics spans beyond the classroom. Both spend their spare time fixing up their own vehicles. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love anything mechanical, hands-on,â&#x20AC;? Nagel said. Nagel said his favorite vehicles are those built by European makers such as BMW and Mercedes. Both said they are unsure if this passion will lead them to a career in auto mechanics. Derrick said he wants to pursue some type of mechanical career, while Nagel said he is considering either commercial deep-sea diving or auto mechanics. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It depends upon what scholarship and other opportunities come along in the next few months,â&#x20AC;? Nagel said. E-mail Jessica Harper at: jessica.harper@ecm-inc.com

They also have an event in October where ice cream sized buckets are placed along slopes and near the edges of the green. You could also find yourself in the middle of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Worst Shotâ&#x20AC;? tournament. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You have to choose the worst of the two shots,â&#x20AC;?
Parkview general manager Jesse Malsom said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is fun, but grueling format.â&#x20AC;? A golf club wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be complete if you couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy everything you need. Several on-site pro shops sell everything from gloves, bags, raincoats, shoes, DVDs, to whole new set of irons. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a nice portion of our business,â&#x20AC;? Heritage Links Golf Club pro Brett Martinson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of it is impulse buy, but we offer club fitting. Whatever you need for a golf game.â&#x20AC;? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a variety of amenities at several golf clubs across the metro. Many places have space to rent and catering services available both in and off-site. So your next trip to the golf course could put you at a class reunion overlooking the rolling fairways or leaving you with a new pair of golf shoes. Andy Rogers is at andy.rogers@ecm-inc.com.

said a new clubhouse, if approved, would not be funded through a property tax increase, but through a combination of golf fees and other revenues at Valleywood, as well as park dedication funds which are paid by developers. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t play golf, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cost you a nickel,â&#x20AC;?

Russell Defauw, chair of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Parks and Recreation Advisory Committee, said the existing clubhouse has hindered food and beverage sales at the golf course, and that a new clubhouse would â&#x20AC;&#x153;dramatically expandâ&#x20AC;? revenues. Goodwin noted that construction costs for a new
clubhouse have yet to be determined; the schematic design from CNH Architects and resulting budget estimate will help the council determine if now is the right time for the project. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We just have to wait and see,â&#x20AC;? he said. Andrew Miller is at andrew. miller@ecm-inc.com.
Prom/from 1A about his decision. As the cost of supplies rises, keeping the business afloat becomes more and more difficult, he said. At the same time, fewer customers are using his services as they cut back on personal expenses. Slutsky pumped up his marketing efforts, such as e-mails and mail advertisements, but with little success. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The feedback Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve gotten is that we have quality service, but people are watching their spending,â&#x20AC;? he said. Despite his own economic challenges, Slutsky is committed to giving back to his community. He said he frequently donates his services to local nonprofits, schools and churches. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A small company like mine canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do a lot in terms of monetary donations,â&#x20AC;?
