The anticipation for a new assisted living option and gathering spot for seniors in Rosemount was doused last Monday for the second time in as many years. William Stoddard, vice president of development for Bloomington-based Doran Companies, spoke with Mayor Bill Droste and sent an email to City Administrator Dwight Johnson informing them of the company’s decision to back out of the nonbinding preliminary development agreement due to recent feasibility report findings. Those findings reported that demand for senior housing had dipped from Maxfield Research’s April 2011 study enough to have Doran reconsider. Doran had proposed an 80- to 90-unit senior housing building and attached 5,000-square-foot senior center on the 1.6-acre area where St. Joseph Catholic

Shepherd of the Valley church in Apple Valley is offering a new spin on the traditional health fair. Organizers of the Spiritual Wellness Fair set for Saturday, March 2 at the Lutheran church have envisioned the event as embracing all aspects of health – physical, spiritual, social, even financial and vocational.
To that end they’ve planned a day of talks and activities that includes everything from yoga and acupuncture to cooking demos and information stations about employment and community service opportunities. “It’s kind of a new way to look at a health fair,� said Char Nelson, staff parish nurse at Shepherd of the Valley and co-chair of the Spiritual Wellness
Fair. “It’s a day of reflection, discovery and fun, and we want people to learn new ways to care for their whole person.� The event, which runs from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m., includes four featured speakers: Sister Martha Alken will present “The Healing Power of Forgiving�; cardiologist Courtney Baechler, “How Stress Contributes to Heart Disease�; chef Marshall O’Brien, “Medi-
terranean Cooking and Eating�; and Eric Peacock, “Five Steps to Transform Your Body and Life.� Guests at the Spiritual Wellness Fair can take part in yoga devotions – yoga practice that incorporates Christian prayer – have a seated massage or try acupuncture. There’s also information modules on healthy eating, cancer and heart disease prevention, and senior resources.

Hospital plans largest expansion in its history by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK
Fairview Ridges Hospital in Burnsville is planning a $60 million expansion, the largest since it opened in 1984. The hospital isn’t adding beds; it’s still licensed for 150, said Fairview Ridges President Beth Krehbiel. Much of the expansion focuses on ambulatory care without overnight hospital stays — the future of health care, she said. “We’re working to create spaces that are more convenient for patients at a lower cost,” Krehbiel said. Plans call for a 130,000-square-foot medical office building in back of the hospital, behind the emergency entrance, and a 40,000-square-foot hospital expansion. Eventually, the hospital’s main entrance will likely be shifted from the north side of the building to the south, hospital officials say. The new five-story building will have a skyway connection to the hospital. A three-level, 400-stall parking ramp is also planned. Ground-breaking is planned for this spring. About half of the expansion is expected to be finished by the end of next year, according to the city.

Fairview Ridges Hospital is planning a $60 million expansion that includes a new medical office building and parking ramp.
“This is certainly the biggest expansion in the history of the hospital,” Krehbiel said in an interview. “We’ve done lots of expansions and adding on.” This one is more strategic than past additions that added basic capacity, she said. The City Council approved measures Feb. 19 that set the stage for the expansion. The development plans will go before the council on March 19,
Krehbiel said. The Feb. 19 actions also involve land owned by Park Nicollet Health Services, a neighbor of the hospital on the 108-acre Ridges Campus, which houses medical buildings, senior housing, Prince of Peace Lutheran Church and the Minnesota Valley YMCA. A land swap between Fairview and Park Nicollet, which has a clinic on the campus west of the
hospital, will give 36,900 square feet to Fairview and 74,400 square feet to Park Nicollet. Park Nicollet has concept plans for a new medical building, but it would be several years away, said Duane Spiegle, Park Nicollet’s vice president of real estate and support services. Also approved Feb. 19 were plans to extend Fairview Drive, which provides access to Fairview
Ridges and Park Nicollet, from Nicollet Boulevard to Nicollet Avenue. Also planned are pedestrian crossing improvements sought by Fairview between the Prince of Peace parking lot and the hospital’s north entrance. The estimated $3 million in road improvements will be paid by Fairview and Park Nicollet.
Hospital project The
expansion
lows a 2004-06 project that added fifth and sixth floors to the hospital. The fifth floor houses the oncology surgical unit, and the sixth, which had remained vacant, is being built out now, Krehbiel said. The floor will house the orthopedic-spine unit, she said. The new medical building will include a heart center, many oncology services, orthopedic and spine services, imaging and radiology, an ambulatory surgery center and an endoscopy center, Krehbiel said. Lab space in the hospital will be expanded from about 4,700 square feet in various locations to a 7,000-square-foot lab. “We can’t add another piece of equipment to do testing,” Krehbiel said. “We honestly don’t have any other square footage, none.” The hospital’s second floor will become an observation unit, for those patients whose stay is usually less than 24 hours. Expanded space for observation patients will take pressure off the 150 hospital beds, Krehbiel said, adding that at times the hospital has had to turn some patients away for lack of bed space.

Sisters team up for Next Act After closing of quilt business, siblings open Apple Valley furniture and home decor shop by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK
Patti Peltz didn’t give herself much of a vacation between the closing of her quilt business and the opening of her furniture and home decor shop. Peltz, who’d run the quilt store Fabric Town in Apple Valley’s Time Square Shopping Center for about nine years, shuttered that business in July with plans to open Next Act just a few doors down. While Next Act didn’t officially open until October, work began immediately, Peltz recounted. “The day Fabric Town closed, I was inside Fabric Town painting furniture for Next Act,” she said. Peltz has a partner in the new business – her sister, Nancy Donahue. Donahue is the business’
owner and Peltz is the manager, but they share in the painting duties, which has the siblings refurbishing old furniture in the rear of the shop. They’ve been logging long hours since Next Act’s opening in the fall. Though the store is open for business four days a week – Thursday through Sunday – the siblings say they’ve been working seven-day weeks as they paint their inventory. Much of that inventory is acquired by Donahue on what she calls “search and rescue” missions – visits to auctions, estate sales and other places where old furniture can be picked up on the cheap. The sisters tout Next Act as a “green” business, selling environmentally friendly furniture paint
and offering weekly workshops to teach others to “go green.” Plus there’s a recycling element at the root of the business, Peltz said. “We take previously loved furniture and refinish, refurbish and repurpose things that may have ended up in our landfills,” she said. Next Act is located at 7635 148th St. W. and its hours are 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Thursday and Friday; 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday; and noon to 4 p.m. Sunday.

Opinion Our Capitol reporters, columnists provide bigger-picture coverage by Larry Werner SUN THISWEEK
On Monday mornings, at a coffee shop in Mounds View, Tim Budig, Howard Lestrud and I meet to discuss their plans for the week ahead. Tim and Howard represent the commitment of ECM Publishers to provide more than strictly local news in our 51 newspapers. When I started reading ECM’s Thisweek Newspapers after moving to Lakeville from Edina in 1999, I was struck by a byline for a “Capitol reporter” in this paper that was mostly about happenings in the community. That wasn’t the kind of byline I was accustomed to seeing in the Edina Sun Current, the weekly paper I had read for many years. Now, however, state Capitol news is in our Edina newspaper and the other Sun papers ECM acquired a year ago. And on all our news websites, in a section called At The Capitol, you’ll find the reporting of Budig and Lestrud. Not too many years after ECM was founded by Elmer Andersen, a former businessman, legislator and governor, our newspapers named a Capitol correspondent to cover the happenings at the
Sun Thisweek Columnist
Larry Werner Legislature and state agencies. Budig, a Wisconsin native and former reporter at ABC Newspapers in Coon Rapids, has been that Capitol correspondent for almost 15 years. Tim is a writing machine — a guy who might crank out 10 stories a week on what our legislators are doing. However, after the Sun acquisition in December of 2011, he found himself covering state news for about 30 more newspapers serving many more communities. Recently, we gave Tim some help. Howard Lestrud, a longtime ECM editor and manager, agreed to take on the new position as political editor and is now working with Tim in St. Paul. Tim and Howard have been meeting with legislators and state officials to develop stories about government as the legislative
session continues. Howard also has been co-chair of the ECM Editorial Board, another creation of our late founder, whose son, Julian Andersen, is our current CEO. Julian’s father took great pleasure in writing editorials and felt that it’s important for newspapers to take stands on public issues. So about once a month, you’ll find editorials in your local newspaper that might deal with anything from education policy to political races to the national farm bill. Also appearing on our editorial pages are columns by Don Heinzman, who has worked as an editor and manager with ECM almost since the company was founded. Don serves with Howard, Julian, President Marge Winkelman, several of our editors and two citizen members on the editorial board that meets monthly to develop positions on issues. Another regular ECM columnist is Joe Nathan, who is executive director of the Center for School Change. Joe, a former public school teacher and educationpolicy expert, provides his views on Minnesota education. Some of you might wonder why the
local weekly newspaper and website are devoting resources to covering news that crosses the boundaries of your municipalities and counties. It’s because a renaissance man named Andersen decided his newspapers would provide more than what has come to be known as “hyperlocal” news — the activities of city councils, school boards and sports teams. He wanted you to get information about the state he served as a legislator and governor. It would be less expensive to forgo that kind of big-picture coverage and stick with strictly local news. One of the reasons I enjoy working for ECM is because the company’s mission goes beyond reporting local news and selling local ads. In his autobiography, Elmer Andersen wrote this about his commitment to news: “I was not in the newspaper business to make money. I was in it for the mission.” Larry Werner is director of news for ECM Publishers. He is at larry.werner@ ecm-inc.com. Columns reflect the opinion of the author.
Bush Foundation seeks person to help practical visionaries in education by Joe Nathan SUN THISWEEK
This week I thought about people like Wayne Pikal, Ramona de Rosales, Doug and Dee Thomas, Eric and Ella Mahmoud and Keith Lester. The support given to foundations helped these “practical visionaries” carry out their (very good) ideas. This issue comes up, in part, because the Minnesota-based Bush Foundation is seeking a new education director to help identify and support innovation throughout Minnesota, North and South Dakota. Here are what some foundations have done in education in addition to some information about Bush. • Blandin Foundation empowered educators to set up new, research-based programs. Recently I mentioned a threehour/day program in Little Falls High School, taught by Wayne Pikal, a biology teacher, an English and social studies teacher. Students read and wrote about the Mississippi, and tested river quality of the water. Blandin Foundation helped start this. • With help from various foundations, Brooklyn Center Superintendent Keith Lester brought together district and so-
Sun Thisweek Columnist
Joe Nathan cial service agencies in the district’s middle and high school building. This helps provide better service for students and families. • Ford Foundation helped create Head Start, an early childhood program that works both with low-income families and their children. Not all early childhood programs are equally effective. But some of them have helped produce progress with children that have lasted decades after children participated. • Minnesota Initiative Funds helped establish “School-Based Entrepreneurship” programs in Greater Minnesota, such as the hardware store in Rothsay run by high school students. This attracted attention from the Wall Street Journal and National Inquirer. • Annenberg and Gates Foundation helped Doug and Dee Thomas start the
nationally known Minnesota New Country (charter) School in Henderson. A majority of the school’s board of directors are teachers working in the school: an example of true teacher empowerment. MNCS uses a project approach and has refined a “Hope Survey” to measure whether students are learning goalsetting and persistence. • Cargill and other foundations helped Eric and Ella Mahmoud establish Harvest Prep. They’ve received national attention for success in closing achievement gaps between white and African American students. • Frey, Travelers and St. Paul foundations helped Center for School Change bring together district and charter schools to increase the number of high school students taking challenging, college level classes. Other foundations mentioned here have also helped the Center for School Change. • Target supported meetings convened by educators like Bondo Nyembwe, Ramona de Rosales, Kerry Felt and Catherine Rich to help parents understand how to select books for their young children, and gave them a book to read with their children.
• 3M supports Project Lead the Way to help promote stronger Science, Technology, Engineering and Math skills. • Bush provides yearlong fellowships to help people implement ideas. That brings us back to Bush Foundation. Using funds earned from 3M, Archibald and Edyth Bush created the foundation. The foundation’s 2011 annual report says it donated $29.6 million, of which 41 percent, about $12 million, was in education. Its overall education goal over the next decade is to “increase by 50 percent the number of students in Minnesota, North Dakota and South Dakota, from pre-kindergarten through college, who are on track to earn a degree after high school, and eliminate disparities among diverse student groups.” Wise foundations look not only for good ideas, but also for people who can carry them out. Joe Nathan, formerly a Minnesota public school teacher and administrator, directs the Center for School Change. Reactions welcome, joe@centerforschoolchange.org.

That’s why we crafted new rules that promote greater transparency for the public and more effective governance in the legislative process. Passing these rules was an arduous task. Debate lasted until 2:30 a.m. Feb. 12, Tuesday morning. There was more than nine hours of debate. But it was worth it. As I said in a floor speech at 1:30 a.m., “These rules will improve our work product, improve transparency, and provide greater accountability to the public and greater opportunities for
public input.” Some of the key changes are: • All legislators – both DFL and Republican – must pre-file amendments at least 24 hours before a bill is to be voted on the House floor. • The Rules Committee is allowed to set a cutoff date for introduction of new bills toward the end of session. • Second-degree amendment must be relevant to the underlying primary amendment and may not introduce a new subject or add a new purpose. • The speaker or the majority to refer a bill to Rules Committee or the committee of jurisdiction
for corrections. These rules are designed to provide guidelines for and bring structure to the work that we do. They set greater expectations on both the majority party and the minority party. The rules apply to all of us. We have a lot of work to do this session. Lawmakers of both parties must come to ensure that our Legislature runs efficiently and in a manner that makes it assessable to those people we work for.

Mobin was charged last year with soliciting prostitution for an 18-year-old pregnant woman who said he was the father.

Sense of security stolen Burglary of Gerster Jewelers last year has not been solved by Jennifer Chick SUN THISWEEK
It’s been almost a year since burglars broke into Gerster Jewelers in Farmington, smashing and stealing merchandise while shattering a sense of security in the community. “It was a sad day for Farmington, Lakeville, Rosemount, Hampton, everyone, because it entirely changed your way of thinking,” said Jim Gerster Jr., owner of the 92-year-old family-owned jewelry store. “Farmington has always been a little town hid off of 35W, and we’ve never had any crime of any kind. Now the bad guys just found a whole new niche. The bad guys are just bold and now they’ve found us. They’ve found Mayberry and they took it away from us.” On Thursday, April 19, 2012, a group of three or four individuals broke through the front door of Gerster Jewelers at 10:23 p.m., smashing cases and stealing whatever merchandise they could grab.
The burglary appeared to be connected to a string of recent robberies around the metro area. Gerster said no one has ever been arrested for the crimes even though there has been plenty of surveillance footage from the crimes. The crew was in and out in about a minute, and what Gerster said made it more remarkable was that they did it just down the street from a bar that was open at the time. When Gerster got the call that an alarm had gone off at his shop, he took his time going down to the scene, thinking it was a false alarm as has been the case before with his heat-sensitive system. He was shocked to find the destruction at the shop. “Of course, it’s about money, but what they are doing with the money, we don’t know for sure,” said Sgt. Lee Hollatz in charge of investigations for the Farmington Police Department. The police department
is continuing to investigate the incident, teaming up with many other agencies in the area, but he confirms that no arrests have been made. What was even worse than the damage at the jewelry store, Gerster said, was the stolen sense of security. He grew up in Farmington, riding his bike around the town all day long, often not returning home until supper time. Now, as a grown man, he worries about staying alone in his business late at night. Instead of staying late to work on a project or paperwork, he said he’ll come in on a Sunday instead. He won’t leave an unfinished item out of the safe, intending to come in the next day to work on it. It takes more time to close up for the day as he takes those extra precautions he never thought of before the burglary. “It’s a little bit of an inconvenience, but you don’t want to be stupid,” Gerster said.

He also thinks the crime has affected thousands of people’s perceptions, making the community a little less secure. Gerster Jewelers will celebrate its 93rd anniver-
sary in April. The store was started by Gerster’s grandfather Ernie Gerster. Gerster took over the store from his father, Jim. Last year’s burglary was a first in the store’s 92-year
history. “It’s just a weird, sad time out there,” he said. “I wish it wasn’t because I liked Mayberry.”
Eagan musician charged with felony assault Fundraiser builds unity at local school by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK
An Eagan blues musician is facing felony charges for allegedly strangling his girlfriend during a dispute over music on the radio. Bernard Allison, 47, was charged on Feb. 13 in Dakota County District Court with felony domestic assault by strangulation and misdemeanor domestic assault. The criminal complaint, which lists a Lakeville address for Allison, states that he began arguing about music on the radio Feb. 11 with his girlfriend with whom he shared an Eagan apartment. Allison then allegedly began choking her for about a minute until a
third person intervened. After the incident, the woman went into the bathroom to shower and heard glass break as Allison allegedly attempted to force his way into the bathroom. The woman called a neighbor and asked him to come to the apartment. When the neighbor arrived, the woman left the bathroom and Allison began to yell at her and pull her hair, according to the complaint. The woman went to the neighbor’s apartment and called police. When officers arrived, they found a broken glass picture frame and red marks on the woman’s neck. In an interview with police, Allison allegedly admitted choking the
woman during a dispute over music. Allison is a well-known blues guitarist who has toured the country with various blues groups and as a solo artist since the early 1980s. He has a prior conviction for misdemeanor domestic assault from 2002. If convicted, Allison faces up to three years in prison for the felony charge and up to 90 days in jail for the misdemeanor charge. Allison is currently out on bail and is scheduled to appear in court at 9 a.m. May 14 in Hastings.

A student-council planned and promoted fundraiser has helped build bonds at a Lakeville elementary school. Four Orchard Lake Elementary students, the youngest in first grade, visited each classroom to talk about trips to the school nurse, highs and lows, needle pricks and the pumps attached to most of them. Their stories of living with type 1 diabetes, previously called juvenile diabetes, moved students to contribute their pennies, dimes and quarters to raise $1,000 for the MinJessica Harper is at jessica. nesota Juvenile Diabetes harper@ecm-inc.com or Research Foundation. facebook.com/sunthisweek. Student council members dubbed their four-day initiative “Dimes 2 Dollars for Diabetes,” and matched their fundraising efforts with an educational campaign to help raise awareness and understanding about what it is like for their four classmates who live with the disease. Presenter Ellie Shaskey, 9, in an interview called the regular needle pricks and shots she must get “not very fun.” “I have to bring my kit everywhere,” the third-
grader said, adding she feels “shaky” when her sugar level is low and “crazy or hyper” when it is high. She was diagnosed with T1D at age 4, when symptoms suddenly appeared during a family trip to a Disney theme park. “She was going crazy drinking water,” said Ellie’s mom, Betsy Shaskey. “We were just going through money like crazy on bottled water, and she was going to the bathroom all the time.” Ellie was diagnosed at a specialty center, where her parents immediately learned how to give her the insulin shots she would need for the rest of her life. Ellie does not let her illness stop her from enjoying sports like basketball and track, and said the hardest part of living with T1D is when her parents have to come to sleepovers to administer the day’s last injection. T1D occurs suddenly, has no cure and is not contagious. Most of the diabetic students at OLE carry a machine that automatically pumps the insulin into their system through a port that is changed every third day. Ellie still uses needles,
but plans to also get a pump. OLE Student Council advisor Carol Metz said the fundraiser has helped build unity among the students and a greater understanding of their classmates’ struggles. “They were almost overly kind to them,” Metz said. “They had a whole new appreciation for what these kids go through. They were very impressed with their stories, and have a new respect for them.” She said one little girl was so moved, she donated every penny in her piggy bank, and recently saw another student helping a first-grader struggling to get his snowsuit over his pump. Some of the students may walk with Ellie at the Feb. 23 JDRF’s Juvenile Diabetes Walk at the Mall of America, and a representative of the Juvenile Diabetes Foundation will thank students at a March 1 assembly.

Bridalwear in Burnsville’s Heart of the City New location a fresh start for Bridal Accents Couture by John Gessner SUN THISWEEK
Always drawn to fashion and design, Michelle Beck has spent a lifetime working toward her goal of being a shopkeeper. It extended from her make-believe games as a girl growing up in Burnsville to a six-year stint with Nordstrom, learning the ropes of fashion retail. Today Beck owns Bridal Accents Couture, the Savage shop she bought in 2009 and moved to Burnsville’s Heart of the City in late December 2012. Seeking a space more centrally located for a regional clientele, Beck purchased 5,600 square feet of suite space on the first floor of the Park Crest on Nicollet condominium building. Located at 12501 Nicollet Ave., the bridal shop is next to Jo Jo’s Rise and Wine and includes the space once occupied by the Double Dip ice cream shop. It’s the only commercial-storefront bridal shop in Burnsville, said Beck,
who held a grand opening earlier this month. “I like the location and I wanted to freshen the brand and be brand new, and have a little more space as well,” she said. A 1992 graduate of The Academy of Holy Angels, Beck studied fashion merchandising and management at the University of WisconsinStout. She began her career at Nordstrom at the Mall of America, first as an intern and then as a full-time employee. She was hired as assistant manager of accessories after college, and within a few months had been promoted to manager of the store’s Savvy department, which handles women’s designer labels. “I ultimately wanted more of a small boutique setting where I could make a lot of the decisions with regard to marketing and buying,” Beck said. In 1999, after having her first child, Beck was hired as a part-time sales associate at Bridal Accents Couture, which had outfitted her and her sis-
ter’s double wedding in 1997. “Ten bridesmaids, 10 groomsmen, two brides,” said Beck, who now lives in Lakeville with husband Adam and their children, 13-year-old Morgan and 9-year-old Luke. “My mother got her gown there.” She became manager and buyer at Bridal Accents Couture, which was located in a cluster of wedding-related shops on West County Road 42 known as the Bridal Retreat. Bridal Accents Couture owner Sonja Bomhoff eventually relocated to Texas, said Beck, who bought the business in 2009 from a subsequent owner. The Bridal Retreat eventually dissolved as businesses came and went, but one of the businesses — Kim’s Tailoring, owned by Angela Kim — followed Beck to Burnsville and rents space from her at Park Crest on Nicollet. “Our brides don’t have to use her, but most do,” Beck said. “She’s very tal-

ented.” Bridal Accents Couture offers brides selections from 14 designers, Beck said. It carries rental tuxes from two suppliers. The trend in bridalwear is toward lace and neckline variations, said Beck, who travels annu-
ally to an industry show in New York. Strapless gowns are losing some steam. “Certainly the royal wedding had an influence on that,” she said. The store employs eight people, including sales and marketing man-
ager Aubrie Hansen. For more information, call (952) 846-4496 or visit www.bridalaccentscouture.com. John Gessner can be reached at john.gessner@ecm-inc. com or facebook.com/sunthisweek.
Eagan tech business sees first female CEO Belzer’s shifts into expansion mode by Jessica Harper SUN THISWEEK
For the first time in 27 years, the person calling the shots at Guaranteed Business Systems in Eagan is a woman. After serving as the company’s controller for 14 years, Melanie Mord, 47, decided to take over the small tech support company in 2011 as CEO. This isn’t Mord’s first time being her own boss. She and husband, John, owned another small business over the past 20 years. The couple purchased their first business — a flower shop — in 1994 in their hometown of Baudette, Minn., near the Canadian border. Four years later, the couple sold the business to move their family to Eagan. “We decided we wanted to move to a bigger area where there’s more opportunities for our children,” Mord said. Today, Mord continues to work along side John, 48, who serves as CIO and president of Guaranteed Business Systems. The couple said they enjoy working as a team. “We get along well and work off each other’s strengths,” Mord said. Mord’s desire to own her own business has roots in her childhood. As a young girl she would help at the Black Duck Hotel, which her family owned. Like Mord, John’s family owned a small business in Baudette called Howard

Melanie Mord Soil. “Growing up in a family business helped us define what customer service is,” John said. In 1998 Mord was hired by GBS as a controller – a role that had her overseeing the company’s accounting and marketing. That year, John, who has a bachelor’s degree in business from Bemidji State University, was hired as a sales manager. The couple weren’t exactly computer geeks and knew little of the emerging technology. “It was like going to the moon back then,” Mord said. Both were fast learners and now know all the ins and outs of the industry. Guaranteed Business Systems was founded in 1986 and assists small businesses with purchasing, configuring and implementing new technology. The company’s CEO stepped down two years ago, and Mord jumped

at the chance to become the company’s first female owner. Over the years, GBS has faced increased competition from online businesses as customers cut back their IT budgets. Yet GBS has held its own, which Mord said is due to the company’s strong relationship with its large client base. To date, GBS, which has four employees, remains profitable, Mord said. The industry is rapidly changing and Mord said she strives to keep up with the latest technology. Recently, GBS added IP surveillance and Wi-Fi set up to its list of services as well as bundling options.
As she looks to the next few years, Mord said she plans to continue to increase the company’s offerings and build upon its customer base.

A longtime Lakeville auto dealership owner has invested millions in the past year gearing up for growth. Jeff Belzer’s Chevrolet, Dodge, Kia dealership is wrapping up final touches of an estimated $4 million expansion that was planned for about three years. Belzer’s, located at 21111 Cedar Ave., has a new building devoted to its Chevrolet dealership with state-of-the-art features, while its Dodge and Kia show floors are being remodeled and upgraded. A new indoor delivery area allows customers to pick up their new or preowned vehicle from inside a well-lit building out of the elements. “People are able to take a look at the vehicle inside, and make sure there are no
defects,” said Gary Lange, Belzer’s general sales manager. Amenities at the dealership include upgraded bathrooms, new desks and customer lounges with computers, expanded parking and fresh interior design elements. “We have a bigger show floor, and more cars are inside,” Lange said. Belzer’s is the largest volume Chevrolet, Dodge, Kia dealership in the Upper Midwest, Lange said, and sells more than 300 vehicles per month. Lange said the dealership has about 150 employees and keeps close to 1,000 new and used vehicles on the lot situated within Belzer’s 40-acre parcel. “Our owner is looking into additional franchises,” Lange said. “We definitely have the property.” He added that sales are

on an upward trajectory in the auto industry, and the forecast is sunny as more people who have kept vehicles longer than normal are now looking to upgrade. Another factor boosting the industry is the addition of lower payment options with longer-term financing established in recent years in response to a challenging economy overall. Lange said those options, pent-up need and the new lineup of vehicles adds up to an industry expectation of a brisk spring. “The March 9 auto show at the Minneapolis Convention Center is the spring kickoff for the selling season,” Lange said. “And everyone says there is going to be record crowds.”

A mom recounts cries for help Local officials gather for domestic abuse luncheon by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK
Pictures of small, blonde, blue-eyed Mikayla Olson smiled at the audience of Dakota County officials as her brokenhearted mother explained the abuse that led to her murder. Leigh Block detailed the often apathetic response and legal roadblocks she experienced as she desperately tried for years to protect her daughter from her ex-husband John Tester of St. Paul. Mikayla was born in November 1998 and within a month of her birth Tester became violent, verbally and physically abusive, highly critical and controlling, Block said at the Feb. 15 annual Domestic Abuse Luncheon, held at Brackett’s Crossing in Lakeville, Block said Tester sometimes threatened her with a butcher knife, slapping it against his palm in front of Mikayla, and physically restraining Block from comforting the baby when she would cry. “I literally felt sick when I’d see his work truck pull up in front of the house,” Block said. “I was constantly walking on egg shells.” She said Tester fre-
quently issued death threats backed by assertions of mob connections and she was fearful for Mikayla’s safety. Multiple times, Block secretly reached out to officials; some were helpful and supportive, others did not believe her, lost evidence or warned her against “pushing John’s buttons.” In 2002 Tester initiated a divorce, and Block tried to protect Mikayla from his escalating rage and violence as custody issues arose. “John would fight with me, yell obscenities and give me orders in front of Mikayla during visitation exchanges,” she said. Their custody evaluator recommended a “communication notebook” that Block called “a terrible idea” that put Mikayla in the middle of their conflicts. “I was so relieved when I’d pick Mikayla up from his house and she’d run to my car,” Block said. “I was in constant fear he was going to harm all of us, or her in front of me.” Despite thick records documenting the years of abuse, restraining orders and violations of those orders and threats, Tester was allowed unsupervised
visitation with Mikayla. “His abusive behavior didn’t affect the custody parenting-time decisions,” Block said. “It was clear to me the violence we’d endured had no impact upon the court.” During visits, Block said Tester told Mikayla her mom was going to die and that bombs hit apartment buildings like the one they lived in; he stalked and harassed Block with Mikayla in tow. Tester called Block from the car on Sept. 4, 2004, telling her he was “sorry,” then he coached Mikayla to tell her mom they were in a new car and going on a journey. Block sensed there was something wrong, but police said Tester had not done anything that indicated a need for action. “I was always told to document and report things,” Block said. “But most of the people I dealt with ignored my concerns and cries for help.” That night, Tester fatally shot Mikayla and then himself inside a rented car he had driven to Polk County, Wis., using a gun he borrowed from a friend who said he did not know the order for protection against him prohibited Tester from owning, pos-
sessing or purchasing a firearm. When told, Block said she ran through her apartment complex to Mikayla’s room screaming her daughter’s name. “I knew this would happen and no one would listen to me,” Block said. “Instead of Mikayla attending her first day of kindergarten, we were attending her funeral.” Almost six months after Mikayla’s death, Block’s mother was killed in Aitkin, Minn., by her abusive husband’s nephew who is serving a life sentence for sexually assaulting and drowning her in her bathtub. Domestic violence remains a serious problem in Minnesota. Last year, at least 18 people, women, family members or friends, died in domestic violence incidents, according to the Minnesota Coalition for Battered Women. Last year, 2,287 survivors of domestic abuse and sexual assault received counseling, advocacy and resources through 360 Communities Lewis House. Block said it is important for police, courts, advocates and schools to work together to address

Leigh Block wiped tears as she explained during the Feb. 15 annual Domestic Abuse Luncheon how her daughter Mikayla Olson was murdered by her abusive ex-husband. Her mother died six months later, also the victim of domestic abuse. domestic violence, a plea that was echoed by officials at the event. Lakeville police Chief Tom Vonhof said law enforcement’s response to domestic violence has improved over the years, but he noted there are far more domestic violence incidents that are not reported to police. He encouraged vigilance to help domestic violence victims.
“It’s incumbent upon every one of us to listen better … to take swift and certain action to help victims of domestic violence feel safe and confident in coming forward … to make a report,” he said. “Be that person that’s open.” Laura Adelmann is at laura.adelmann@ecm-inc. com or facebook.com/sunthisweek.
Bill may eliminate statute of limitations on sex abuse by T.W. Budig SUN THISWEEK
WE WORK FOR YOU - NOT THE IRS!
Traumatized victims of childhood sexual abuse should not be walled off from seeking justice against predators by a fleeting statute of limitation, advocates of legislation argue. “Should I apologize for my own self, protecting me,” James Keenan, a victim of childhood sexual abuse, said of missing the current legal window. Currently, childhood sexual abuse victims must file suit against predators or institutions within six years of becoming adults – age 24, explained bill authors Rep. Steve Simon,
DFL-St. Louis Park, and Sen. Ron Latz, DFL-St. Louis Park. The two attorneys, who describe their legislation as simple and straightforward, argue the nature of childhood sexual abuse can make meeting a sixyear window an impossibility. Their legislation would eliminate the existing statute of limitations and allow victims of childhood sexual abuse to file suit at any time. “I didn’t become aware of my abuse until adulthood,” said Keenan, of Savage, who as an altar boy was abused by a priest but saw his lawsuit
dismissed by the state Supreme Court on the grounds the statue of limitations had run out, advocates said. Both lawmakers and sexual abuse victims spoke of layers of emotions – shame, guilt, despair – that can prevent abuse victims for years to acknowledge to themselves that abuse had occurred. Rep. Sondra Erickson, R-Princeton, said as a parent and teacher she understood that childhood secrets can remain secrets into adulthood. She’s backing the bill, Erickson said, not only to
seek justice but to find a means for the victims of sexual abuse to heal. Perhaps even abusers, cowering for different reasons, might seek repentance. “So I want to look at this from two perceptions,” Erickson said. Beyond addressing lingering crimes, advocates argue eliminating the statute of limitations can prevent future crimes. That’s because sex offenders in their 70s, 80s, hunched over walkers or even in wheelchairs, will continue to abuse children, Jeff Dion, deputy executive director, Na-
tional Center for Victims of Crime, said. “Pedophiles don’t retire,” he said. “There is really nothing we can do about it unless those kids are ready to tell us.” In the case of his abuser, Keenan said, the trail of sexual abuse traced back to 1961. “I wasn’t born then,” he said. Abusers and the institutions sometimes shielding them are fully aware that time provides a threshold for them to cross to escape legal actions, advocates said. Under the bill, this will change, Latz argued.

“Delay is not a safe harbor for these institutions,” Latz, chair of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said. Bills dealing with the statute of limitations and sexual abuse litigation have been proposed before. Simon and Latz view their legislation as superior for its simplicity. Not that filing a suit regarding actions that took place many years or even decades ago is easy. It isn’t, Simon said. But it belongs in the courts.

Patrick Atkinson, founder of the Institute for Trafficked, Exploited & Mission Persons, addressed on Feb. 16 a crowd of over 200 at the first Freedom Weekend at Hosanna! Church in Lakeville.
Freedom Weekend draws primarily female crowd Organizer seeks partnership with Lakeville by Laura Adelmann SUN THISWEEK
More than 200 people attended on Feb. 16 and 17 the first of what is now expected to be an annual Freedom Weekend event at three Dakota County churches where attendance was almost double the number expected. Gripping true accounts of girls, women, men and boys tricked then trapped in the human slavery industry were peppered with action steps and organizations for the predominantly female audience to join or support to help rescue trafficking victims and reduce demand for modernday slavery in all its forms, which is primarily prostitution. Event organizer Adri Carlson followed up the event by requesting a partnership with Lakeville officials at the Feb. 19 Lakeville City Council meeting. “The testimony of survivors that I’ve gotten a chance to meet indicate that truck stops, Burnsville Center, high school campuses, Mall of America are big hot spots for trafficking activity,â€? she said. She offered training for police and security officers, hotel staff, students and parents to equip them to recognize the signs of trafficking. “A parent or teacher might notice a very controlling boyfriend,â€? Carlson said. “A hotel employee might notice ‌ a steady stream of men going into a hotel room.â€? After the meeting, Police Chief Tom Vonhof welcomed the partnership opportunity and invited Carlson to meet with the department about human trafficking issues. “He’s a fan of collaboration,â€? said Carlson, who sent Vonhof a follow-up email the next day. Two Lakeville officers also attended the Freedom Weekend event that was kicked off at Hosanna! Church by Patrick J. Atkinson, 53, founder of the Institute for Trafficked,
Exploited & Missing Persons. Atkinson said human trafficking victims are everywhere because the demand for laborers, prostitutes and pornography is worldwide. “Sex is the number one motive for human trafficking,� he said. Most victims are runaways tricked into trusting a pimp who escalates control through violence and manipulation; he noted males can also be victims. Atkinson described meeting a father consumed in guilt when an argument over a slight curfew violation escalated to his declaring a “myway-or-the-highway� ultimatum that resulted in the teen storming out of the house. His son has never been seen again. The distraught father told Atkinson, “not a minute has gone by that I’ve not wondered where he went.� Atkinson said the streets always multiply whatever problems runaways face at home. Within 48 hours of becoming homeless, youths will be propositioned for prostitution, according to Source Annex, a Minneapolis anti-human trafficking organization. Professional predators are often hired to abduct people with certain features, Atkinson said and shared accounts of young American women disappearing on cruise vacations, some whose pictures eventually appeared on prostitution websites. He called Midwestern children “prime sources of meat� by traffickers, desired because of this area’s wholesome reputation. “We’ve dealt with kids who were sexually bought and sold who were 6 and 7 months old,� he said. He described how they are treated and traded like pieces of meat, forced and threatened, starved, drugged and beaten and raped. As they get used and abused their value declines as would a dented vehicle
with high miles. Many die, their bodies just thrown away. Cindy Kacher of Lakeville was moved to tears during Atkinson’s presentation. “The victimization and dehumanization of people breaks my heart,� she said. “That is not how it’s supposed to be.� Sgt. John Bandemere, investigator with the St. Paul Human Trafficking Task Force, said everyone will see a human trafficking victim in their lifetime, whether in prostitution or labor. Some males are forced into jobs as roofers, others made to sell magazine subscriptions door-todoor, he said. Bandemere recounted the 2007 bust of a large human trafficking ring that smuggled women and girls from abroad. Traffickers took their passports, forced them to work in brothels located all over the Twin Cities where men were charged $40 for 15 minutes. He shared how a 12-year-old in St. Paul was pimped by her own sister and played a 911 tape of a terrified teenage runaway from Iowa calling from a St. Paul hotel where she had been trafficked by a man she met on Facebook. The hotel staff knew she was kept in the room, found bloodied sheets but had done nothing. Bandemere encouraged everyone to be aware and alert authorities if they suspect trafficking is occurring. Patrick Lambertz with Men Against The Trafficking of Others said his organization is developing the first-ever curriculum for men to help decrease the demand for trafficking. He said the program will emphasize the need for men to build an authentic support community, and is seeking leaders to launch the program this spring. See FREEDOM, 10A

Sports Apple Valley one step closer to showdown by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK
It’s tough to call Seth Gross a secret weapon because he’s no secret to anybody who follows high school wrestling. But if Apple Valley is to win an eighth consecutive state wrestling championship, the junior figures to play a key role. Gross, last year’s state Class AAA champion at 120 pounds, is one of several regulars for the Eagles who missed time this season because of illnesses or injuries. In Gross’ case, he was out for about half the regular season. He’s back now, and Apple Valley is as healthy as it’s been all season.

If the Eagles beat Moorhead, they might have to get past South Suburban Conference rival Prior Lake in the semifinals. If all goes as planned, the Eagles are expected to face St. Michael-Albertville in the Class AAA championship match for the third year in a row. The difference is, this year STMA goes in as the favorite. The Knights won Minnesota’s two biggest regular-season tournaments – the Minnesota Christmas Tournament and the Clash Duals – and replaced Apple Valley at No. 1 in the state rank-
ings while the Eagles constantly juggled their lineup to compensate for missing wrestlers. Gross said he believes a full-strength Apple Valley team has a good chance to retain the championship. “I’m pretty close to 100 percent and all our other guys are back, too,” said Gross, who won a USA Wrestling national Cadet Division freestyle championship last summer. “It’s been a tough year, but we have a lot of talent and the guys who filled in did really well. “We’ve been hearing a lot of talk about St. Michael-Albertville and we know they’re a good team.

Hopeful signs for Eastview girls hockey All-around standout Lightning pushes Eagan in section title game before losing by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK
“Just wait until next year” would be a strong statement from a team that finished eighth in its conference this season. Eastview’s girls hockey team, however, might just be sending notice that it’s likely to finish a lot higher than eighth in the South Suburban next year. The Lightning floundered at times during the regular season, yet wasn’t that far from qualifying for the state tournament. Eastview reached the Section 3AA championship game before losing to Eagan 6-4. Eastview, which finished 11-15-2 overall, had only two winning streaks all season – in December when it won a tournament in Farmington, and in February when it won its final regular-season game and first two section games. The Lightning had a young team (only four seniors on the roster) and learning to win is never easy. “We lost six one-goal games this year, and three of those were in overtime,” coach Herb Harvey said following the Lightning’s loss to Eagan in the section title game Feb. 13. “We knew there were some questions at the beginning of the year, but this is a great group of kids and they’re a lot of fun to coach.” He will coach a lot of the same faces next year. Returnees include the Lightning’s top four scorers and both varsity goaltenders. Natalie Snodgrass, who led the team with 22 goals and 34 points, is an eighthgrader. “I haven’t seen everybody, but I have to believe she’s the best eighth-grader in the state,” Harvey said.

Right: Eastview goalie Courtney Companion makes a save on Eagan’s Shelby Williams during the Section 3AA girls hockey final in Inver Grove Heights. Next season the Lightning will have a core group of players with multiple years of varsity experience as it seeks its first state tournament appearance. “All four of our seniors (Lindsay Koplitz, Taylor Tvedt, Taylor Heppner and Brie Zeimen) played at least four years on varsity,” Harvey said. “We have other kids who, by the time they graduate, will have been around the program for four or five years. We also have a lot of younger players. Our JV didn’t have anybody who was a junior. They all were 10th-graders or younger.” One player Harvey will be happy to see moving

Eastview battled back, and at the 9:08 mark of the second period Snodgrass scored to make it 3-3. But 59 seconds after Snodgrass scored, Wolfe got a breakaway and scored to put Eagan back in front to stay. “We had a chance,”

Notebook: Eastview pins down academic title by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK
The state high school wrestling tournament isn’t until next week, but several champions already have been identified. Eastview won the Class AAA academic title for the second consecutive year and the third time in the last four years. The Lightning had a 3.74 team grade-point average. Blue Earth (Class A) and New London-Spicer (Class AA) also won state academic titles. Both are repeat champions as well. The Minnesota Wrestling Coaches Association awards academic team championships. Teams take the top 10 GPAs from their 19-wrestler section rosters in applying for the award. Eagan, Lakeville North and Rosemount earned
gold plaques for team GPAs of 3.50 or higher. Apple Valley and Farmington received silver plaques for team GPAs of 3.0 to 3.49. According to the coaches association, 21 of the 24 teams that qualified for the state tournament earned a gold or silver plaque for academic performance.
One step forward, one back Eastview waited several weeks for a chance to pull even with Bloomington Kennedy in South Suburban Conference girls basketball. The Lightning got that chance and took advantage of it, only to fall back again a few days later. Eastview defeated No. 1-ranked Bloomington
Kennedy 66-46 on Feb. 15, avenging a 57-49 loss to the Eagles on Jan. 2 and temporarily tying them for first place in the league. On Tuesday night, however, Lakeville South upset Eastview 58-53 while Kennedy beat Bloomington Jefferson 73-25. That put Kennedy one game in front of Eastview in the South Suburban with one game remaining. Sophomore guard Madison Guebert scored 24 points and senior forward Tyra Johnson had 17 in Eastview’s victory over Kennedy last week. No Kennedy player scored more than nine points. Johnson led the Lightning with 16 points against Lakeville South. Eastview (23-2) will be the top seed in the Section 3-4A playoffs that begin Wednesday. The Lightning

Eagan’s Anderson 5th at state alpine by Mike Shaughnessy SUN THISWEEK
Eagan ninth-grader Tommy Anderson finished fifth in the state boys Alpine skiing meet Feb. 13 at Giants Ridge Ski Area. He had the secondhighest finish of any South Suburban Conference skier in the boys or girls competition. Anderson had a two-run time of 1 minute, 15.51 seconds. Anderson had the fifth-best time on each of the two runs. The fastest South Suburban skier in the meet was Bloomington Jefferson’s Michael Murray, who won the boys state championship in 1:13.67, about half a second faster than Jack
McNeil of Blake. Anderson, who won the Section 4 individual championship Feb. 6, finished 11th in the 2012 state meet. Burnsville senior Tom Flickinger was 32nd in 1:21.79, an improvement of nine places over his 2012 state finish. Flickinger’s teammate, sophomore Jon Garbe, was 62nd in 1:30.42.

This season, he qualified for his second consecutive trip to the state meet held at Giant’s Ridge. In addition to two trips to state, Rhett also qualified for junior nationals as a sophomore. That event was held in Utah at the site of the 2002 Olympics venue, Soldier Hollow. His best finish came in his last freestyle competition where he finished 3rd on his team and 15th overall.

FRESHMAN EASTVIEW HIGH SCHOOL Margie Freed joined the Eastview High School Girls Nordic Ski team this year as a freshman and immediately made an impact. An extremely hard-working skier who improved tremendously as the season progressed, her efforts in practice spurred a young EVHS team to set high goals for themselves and put in the work necessary to achieve at this level. Margie’s regular season results were stellar with her finishing among the top 5-6 skiers at each South Suburban Conference (SSC) meet. Entering the post-season, big things were expected from Margie and she came through with flying colors leading the Eastview Girls team, on which 6 of 7 varsity skiers are freshmen, to a 2nd place finish in the SSC Pursuit Championships and a similar finish (2nd place by 6-points) in the Section – 1 Meet. Qualifying for the State Championships, a relatively rare occurrence for a freshman, Margie finished in 37th place with excellent races in both freestyle and classic techniques. Though the high school season is over, Margie will continue training for the National Junior Olympics to be held in Fairbanks Alaska in mid-March where she will be a member of the strong Midwest team.

in the community. In an effort to include more organizations, organizers have relaxed the previous requirement of having a booth staffed by at least one person during the hours of the fair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Since we understand this is a significant time commitment, we are allowing groups and organizations the flexibility to staff their booth for as long as they can,â&#x20AC;? said Donna Gainor, Volunteer and Resource Fair coleader. â&#x20AC;&#x153;While we think it would be in a groupâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best interests to have someone at a table during all the hours of the fair, we understand if they cannot.â&#x20AC;? Fair organizers also are offering an Information Table option for those who are unable to be there during the event. Organizations have the option of dropping off brochures or other promotional materials from 6 to 7 p.m. Friday, March 1, or from 9:15 to 10:15 a.m. Saturday, March 2, at Rosemount Middle School that can be included in an Information Table at the event. To participate with either a staffed booth or through the Information Table, send the organizationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name, address, contact person and electrical needs to Gainor at donna. gainor@gmail.com. Organizations are asked to indicate if they will have a staffed booth or be part of the Information Table. The deadline for participants is Wednesday, Feb. 27. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hope we have a simple, one-day solution for groups to fulfill some of their most pressing volunteer needs and help them spread the word about the resources they provide to the Rosemount community,â&#x20AC;? Gainor said. The Volunteer and Re-
source Fair is part of the One Rosemount Feeding Families event that had as its goal to have 1,200 people packing 286,120 meals to send to Haitian refuges in the Dominican Republic. The event has signed up about 1,500 volunteers and it is expected that will result in even more meals being packed through St. Louis Park-based Impact Lives. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are simply overwhelmed by the response,â&#x20AC;? said Tom Meaden, One Rosemount Feeding Families co-leader. Individuals and groups, including those from Rosemount churches, service clubs, schools, Scouting and businesses, are participating in the effort. About 1,000 of those volunteers will be going through the doors of the Volunteer and Resource Fair since that is the number slated to pack at Rosemount Middle School. After they see a short presentation from Impact Lives, they will have the opportunity to check out offerings at the Volunteer and Resource Fair, which will be held in the cafeteria where the presentation will be given. The other 500 or so volunteers will be packing meals at nearby Rosemount Elementary School. They will be encouraged to stop by the fair after their shift is done. The event is still seeking monetary donations to help pay for logistics to send the food and food donations as part of a food shelf drive for 360 Communities Rosemount Resource Center. More about the event is at www.onerosemountfeedingfamilies.com. Tad Johnson is at tad.johnson@ecm-inc.com.

SUN THISWEEK - Apple Valley - Rosemount February 22, 2013 19A
Thisweekend ‘Casablanca’ opens Classic Film Night series Rosemount Area Arts Council event is March 8 at Steeple Center by Andrew Miller SUN THISWEEK
Don’t be surprised if you see a few Humphrey Bogart lookalikes ambling about downtown Rosemount in a few weeks. For its screening of “Casablanca” on March 8 at the city’s Steeple Center, the Rosemount Area Arts Council is encouraging guests to dress in “Casablanca”-inspired attire. The iconic white suit worn by Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman’s khaki blazer, Sydney Greenstreet’s fez – just some of the wardrobe options classic film enthusiasts will have at their disposal. “I know of three people
who have already bought white suits, and two guys who went to Goodwill and bought trenchcoats,” said Ted Hammond, a Rosemount Area Arts Council board member who’s chairing the event. Hammond emphasized that “Casablanca” attire is encouraged but optional at the screening, which is the first in the arts council’s Classic Film Night series. The arts council is billing Classic Movie Night as a “date night”-type activity, and has partnered with Rudy’s Red Eye Grill in Rosemount, which will offer dinner discounts to filmgoers the night of the “Casablanca” event. The screening will include a “Casablanca” trivia contest, and a concession stand featuring popcorn that producers hope will conjure the taste and smell theater-goers would have experienced
at the premiere of “Casablanca” back in 1942. “We’re doing real popcorn with real butter – we researched how they make the popcorn at the Lagoon theater in Minneapolis,” Hammond said. While the arts council has envisioned Classic Film Night as an ongoing series, additional screenings have yet to be finalized. After “Casablanca,” the next film event will probably be held in the summer or fall, Hammond said. Tickets for “Casa- Guests at the March 8 screening of “Casablanca” are encouraged to come dressed as blanca” are $5 and can be Humphrey Bogart, Ingrid Bergman or other characters from the iconic 1942 film. pruchased at the Steeple Center, 14375 S.

DANCE, from 1A November and December,” Raiche said. “Then over the holiday break we spend a lot of time learning the new routine.” Switching routines in midseason helps keep the dancers mentally fresh and engaged, Raiche said. “Burnsville is the only other team I know that does it,” she added. Eastview won the Section 1AAA championship, but the Lightning’s coach said she knew the team had not peaked. There were some points to clean up, and Raiche said she thought the dancers could build a little more endurance. Eastview easily qualified for the state finals, then put on its best performance of the season. “We didn’t have a line out of place or a missed kick,” Raiche said. “We couldn’t have asked for more.” There were nine seniors on the winning Eastview team, two of whom, Rachel Rudolph and Melanie Wagner, were nominated for the all-tournament squad. All nine of them had to work their way up through the Eastview program, which also has junior varsity and Bsquad teams. “They all had to work their way up from being on the JV as sophomores,” Raiche said. In the jazz division competition held Feb. 15, Eastview finished third behind Maple Grove and Wayzata. Maple Grove and Wayzata have dominated the Class AAA jazz division. One of those schools has won the state title every year since 2004. Eastview placed third for the fifth consecutive year. “Maple Grove and Wayzata are powerful jazz programs, and we’re the ones trying to give them a run for their money,” Raiche said. “And this year, I think we did. There was only an eight-point difference between first and third.” Ellen Kenney and Mikayla Larson were Eastview’s selections on the alltournament team. Asked what it will take for Eastview jazz team to move past the state’s top two, Raiche said, “we’ll be going through videos all summer trying to figure that out.” From talking to judges, Raiche said it appears that they’re looking for more highly refined dance skills. In the past, the Eastview jazz team has focused more on choreography, and the coach said a change in approach might be necessary. Eastview won a state jazz division title in 2000, two years before Raiche became head coach. “At the time, Eastview was still a new school, but I thought there was a lot of potential here,” she said. Over the last decade she’s been proven right time and again.

The Blazettes have qualified for the state meet 36 of the last 37 years. Jamie Krallman and Nicole Obregon were Burnsville’s representatives on the high kick all-tournament team.
